1.4 Health (WHO Europe)
Alcohol-related statistics
In 2008, the WHO Regional Office for Europe together with the European Commission and WHO headquarters, started to collect data on alcohol consumption, alcohol related harm, and responses data issued for a global/regional database and available to the public since spring 2010 (http://apps.who.int/globalatlas/default.asp). The data was used for the European Status report on alcohol and health 2010, which was published in January 2011.
Ongoing methodological work:
• Data collection from 53 European Member States;
• A system for online data entry which will be used for a new data collection in 2012;
• Entering data into an SPSS file.
Priority objective of methodological work:
• A shared database at WHO headquarters with a platform for each European Region as well as for EU Member States only, is improved at regular intervals;
• Review and improvement of data quality with a special focus on alcohol consumption by reconciling a range of different sources of data;
• Improvement of the international coordination of the data collection in order to secure that data for one country are the same in different international sources.
New activities:
• Preparation of a European report using data collected for EU Member States during 2011 will be published in March 2012.
• Preparation of a European Status report on alcohol and health will be published during 2013. Meetings planned in the next two years.
• Conference to launch a new publication: Alcohol in Europe to take place on 27 March 2012.
Meetings in 2012:
• Alcohol counterpart meeting 31 May - 1 June 2012, Warsaw, Poland.
Communicable Disease Surveillance, Prevention and Control
This database contains data gathered through surveillance, prevention and control activities on communicable diseases - such as tuberculosis, HIV/AIDS and sexually transmitted infections, and malaria - and data on immunization coverage in countries. It offers information on recent outbreaks in Europe and some other textual information. The database permits a detailed review and situation assessment of the main infectious diseases in the WHO European Region and also offers some data at the subnational level.
Ongoing methodological work:
• Collection and dissemination of data on vaccine preventable diseases, including monthly incidence of measles, rubella, acute flaccid paralysis (polio), and diphtheria, and annual summaries of immunization program indicators (vaccination coverage, immunization schedules), through the Centralized Information System for Infectious Diseases (CISID) database http://data.euro.who.int/cisid/. Monthly surveillance statistics for measles jointly collected and reported with ECDC;
• Annual collection and dissemination of data on non-vaccine preventable infectious diseases, including zoonotic, vector-borne, blood-borne and water related, through the annual communicable disease reporting forms and maintained in the CISID database;
• Annual collection and dissemination of epidemiological data on the following sexually transmitted infections (STIs): Syphilis (total, early, late and congenital), Gonorrhea, Chlamydia, Herpes simplex and HPV as well as viral hepatitis and HIV/ hepatitis co-infection. Data are collected through the WHO Communicable Disease Annual Reporting Form and maintained in the (CISID) database;
• Enhanced surveillance of HIV/AIDS conducted jointly by the WHO Regional Office for Europe and the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) in the 53 WHO European Member States since January 2008. Dissemination of data in an annual WHO/ECDC HIV/AIDS surveillance in Europe report (available at http://www.euro.who.int/aids) and through the centralized information system for infectious diseases (CISID): http://data.euro.who.int/cisid/;
• Annual collection, through an annual WHO/UNAIDS/UNICEF reporting tool on the health sector response to HIV/AIDS, including information on access to prevention, treatment and care for people living with HIV/AIDS. Data dissemination via the annual "Towards universal access" progress report (http://www.who.int/hiv/pub/2009progressreport/en/);
• Annual collection of tuberculosis notification, drug-resistance status, treatment outcomes, programmatic and financial management jointly conducted by WHO headquarters and ECDC. European Regional data from Global TB database also maintained in CISID and HFA databases. Epidemiologic surveillance and programme data disseminated via annual European TB surveillance and monitoring reports jointly issued by WHO Europe and ECDC.
New activities:
• Development of an online data entry tool for rubella and Congenital Rubella Syndrome through CISID;
• Refinement of electronic data transfer protocols between ECDC and WHO databases;
• Improvement of automated uploading capabilities in countries that are reporting surveillance data to CISID.
Health Accounts
WHO Europe's work on health systems financing includes efforts to produce reliable, internationally comparable and transparent estimates of health expenditures for each country in the Region, using a common international standard (the International Classification for Health Accounts). Estimates are produced in a consultative process with technical specialists in all Member States and partner agencies. The work results in aggregate health expenditure estimates being available online in the WHO Europe Health for All database.
Ongoing methodological work:
The new System of Health Accounts (SHA) 2011, a global standard for defining and classifying financial resources for health, introduces major changes to the reporting standards, taking into account countries' specificities and differences in analytical needs. The work is led jointly by WHO, OECD and Eurostat.
• Training material is currently developed by Abt Associates to facilitate the transition from National Health Accounts (NHA) and SHA to SHA 2011.
• Mapping between NHA and SHA will be developed by the Eurasian NHA network to facilitate the consistency of the process in the CIS countries.
Priority objective of methodological work:
WHO/Europe has established a validation process of all health expenditure data published in the Health for All Database, the WHO World Health Statistics and the WHO WHOSIS database. The validation consists of an informal network of health accounting and/or health financing experts in the Region with whom preliminary WHO estimates are shared and this same network is also invited to provide comments and alternative estimates.
• Facilitating the transition from SHA and NHA to SHA 2011 by developing producers' guidelines and trainings.
• Ensuring the continuity of the existing NHA data series and mapping the data according to the new standard.
• Some statistical data referred to on pharmaceuticals are included in the European Health for All database (mostly types of expenditure data on medicines) and is coordinated with the National Health Accounts as well.
New activities:
• Training in the WHO Regional Office for Europe is planned to be delivered as an addition to an extended OECD annual meeting for health experts in October.
• The training on SHA 2011 which is set up as an implementation year for SHA 2011 is likely to continue until 2014.
• Training for the CIS countries will be provided at the Eurasian NHA annual meeting organized by WHO Regional Office for Europe.
Health Statistics
WHO Europe provides twice yearly updated information for the assessment and monitoring of the health situation and of trends in health and health care in countries of the European Region in order to provide support for decision-making and for the formulation of public health policies and programs including the assessment of their effectiveness. In this regard, the WHO Regional Office for Europe collects, reviews the quality and maintains over 600 indicators from various health dimensions, with diverse levels of detail in different databases.
Ongoing methodological work:
• Annual collection and processing of national basic health statistics (e.g. demographics, health status, health determinants and health care) from 53 European WHO Member States and dissemination via the WHO Regional Office for Europe web site http://www.euro.who.int/en/what-we-do/data-and-evidence/databases or from http://data.euro.who.int/hfadb/;
• Annual collection and processing of national and subnational mortality from WHO European Member States and dissemination via the WHO Regional Office for Europe web site. This supplements the European health for all database (HFA-DB) providing data for international comparisons for a predefined set of indicators for 67 aggregated causes of death by age and sex The European Mortality database (HFA-MDB) is available at: http://www.euro.who.int/en/what-we-do/data-and-evidence/databases/mortality-indicators-by-67-causes-of-death,-age-and-sex-hfa-mdb;
• Annual collection and dissemination of the European detailed mortality database (DMDB). This source was developed in 2007 to provide user-friendly access to detailed data by any combination of three-digit codes used in the International Classification of Diseases, ninth or tenth revisions (ICD-9 or ICD-10) and five-year age groups. Database available at http://www.euro.who.int/en/what-we-do/data-and-evidence/databases/european-detailed-mortality-database-dmdb2;
• Collection and dissemination of the national hospital discharge data in a form of a European Hospital Morbidity database (HDMB), including detailed diagnoses coded using the ICD-9 or ICD-10) or the International Shortlist for Hospital Morbidity Tabulation (ISHMT), by age and sex. Available at http://www.euro.who.int/en/what-we-do/data-and-evidence/databases/european-hospital-morbidity-database-hmdb2;
• The Health Evidence Network (HEN) is an information resource and platform on health evidence primarily for public health and health care policy-makers in the WHO European Region. HEN provides summarized information from a wide range of existing sources: web sites, databases, technical and policy documents, national and international organizations and institutions. The sources of evidence database is available at: http://www.euro.who.int/en/what-we-do/data-and-evidence/health-evidence-network-hen/sources-of-evidence-database.
• Preparation of the 2012 European Health Report. In addition to the basic analyses of situation and trends, it will have emphases on health and well-being of the population of the Region. It also serves as a prime instrument for dissemination of statistical findings from the Region. This year the report will also provide a baseline for health targets indicators set up in the new WHO Health 2020 policy for Europe.
Priority objective of methodological work:
• Design of an integrated system of statistical databases maintained by specific WHO Europe technical programs available to external users via uniform interfaces;
• Review and improve data quality of WHO Europe data sources at different levels and establish mechanisms and tools to facilitate the process. Also implement data quality assessments and an improvement strategy for WHO and country health data collections;
• Improve the coordination and comparability of international data collection in collaboration with other international agencies (primarily OECD and EC/EUROSTAT). Work on the coordination of health data collection and harmonization of health indicators in the European Region is ongoing. Following the national health accounts example, a joint OECD/EUROSTAT/WHO Europe data collection on non-expenditure health indicators started in 2010 and will continue in 2012, further expanding its indicators and the number of countries participating (to include non-EU/OECD ones).
• WHO Europe developed jointly with the European Commission, DG-Sanco, an integrated health information system for the display and analysis of indicators on socioeconomic situation, health, and health care resources at regional level (so-called NUTS2-level). This web-based tool brings together data allowing assessments of regional inequalities across Europe. Three types of interactive atlases address different questions and display data, accordingly: Regional comparison atlas, Correlation map atlas and Atlases of social inequalities. They are available at: http://www.euro.who.int/en/what-we-do/data-and-evidence/equity-in-health/interactive-atlases. A new developmental stage on the atlases will continue in 2012, emphasizing three aspects: inclusion of time series capabilities, environmental indicators, and organization by thematic health topics.
• A new health policy framework (Health 2020) for Europe is being developed by the WHO Regional Office for Europe for its Member States. Emphasis will be placed on six areas: governance for health; inequities in health; healthy people; the environment (including risk factors and the determinants of health); the burden of disease and health system performance. Monitoring progress towards targets in these areas will be an integral part of the process. Definition of targets and indicators is currently under way, with contributions from different stakeholders. A special element to be included is the assessment and monitoring of health and well-being, this one requiring additional methodological work, also on its way.
• Additional areas of HEN's methodological work will include the following: Grading the strength of policy considerations; developing methods of combining evidence from different types of studies and other information; and refining methods for collecting questions and developing dialogue with policy-makers.
Nutrition and physical activity
In 2005 the WHO Regional Office for Europe started to collect data on the prevalence of overweight and obesity in all population groups in preparation for the European Ministerial Conference on Counteracting Obesity (15-17 November 2006, Istanbul). At the Conference, Member States approved the European Charter on Counteracting Obesity, which lists goals, guiding principles and a framework for action. In September 2007, the WHO Regional Committee for Europe endorsed the WHO European Action Plan for Food and Nutrition Policy 2007-2012, which calls on Member States to develop and implement food and nutrition policies and translates the principles and framework provided by the Charter into specific action packages and monitoring mechanisms.
To follow up and ensure implementation of the Charter and the Action Plan, the WHO Regional Office for Europe collects information within the following areas:
1. Surveillance:
- Nutritional status: anthropometry and micronutrient status;
- Dietary habits: household food availability, "per capita" food supply, food consumption and nutrient intake at individual level;
- Physical activity and sedentary behaviour; and
- Knowledge, attitudes and behaviour related to nutrition and physical activity.
2. National policies and actions:
- Policy developments in food and nutrition, health enhancing physical activity, and obesity; and
- Actions to implement policies: government programmes and policy instruments, legislation in the different areas of action, intersectoral collaboration and partnerships.
3. Flagging of successful initiatives:
- National, regional and local obesity prevention programmes and interventions in different settings (e.g. school, workplace, community, primary health care).
This data collection is being carried out in close collaboration with the Directorate-General for Health and Consumers of the European Commission.
A database was developed to facilitate processing of the information identified, entitled the "Database on Nutrition, Obesity and Physical Activity (NOPA)". As a monitoring tool, the NOPA database can stimulate policy-makers to identify gaps and needs in data collection and policy development, or show progress in their fight against obesity.
Ongoing methodological work:
• Annual collection and processing of national and subnational data on the prevalence and trends of overweight and obesity, physical inactivity, food consumption and nutrient intake in all population groups (children, adolescents and adults) from the 53 Member States of the WHO European Region;
• Annual collection and processing of national policies on nutrition, obesity and physical activity promotion;
• Two rounds of data collections took place (in 2007/2008 and 2009/2010) as part of the WHO European Childhood Obesity Surveillance Initiative that aims to routinely monitor policy response to the emerging obesity epidemic. Body weight and body height as well as dietary and physical activity patterns have been measured among primary schoolchildren aged 6-9 years. A third round will take place during the school year 2012/2013.
Priority objective of methodological work:
• Calculation of intercountry comparable estimates of the prevalence of overweight/obesity among 6-9-year-old children as a result of the two COSI data collection rounds.
Meetings in 2012:
• Sixth meeting of the principal investigators of the participating countries in the WHO European Childhood Obesity Surveillance Initiative (Oslo, Norway; 15-16 November 2012).
Social determinants, gender and inequalities
To strengthen the capacity of WHO Member States to systematically use analyses of social & economic determinants and health inequalities to inform the development, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of health policies and programmes. This includes strengthening the capacity of the WHO Regional Office for Europe and its Member States to: (a) generate and or make use of existing data disaggregated by sex and age and cross link with available data on social and economic determinants (place of residence, level of education, income, employment status etc); and (b) analyse the findings with other forms of knowledge to better inform policy development, implementation, monitoring and evaluation.
Ongoing methodological work:
• Working with WHO technical units to develop a minimum standards approach for ensuring collection and use of disaggregated and cross linked data in all key strategy and policy documents. For example, work with WHO NCD area regarding minimum set of indicators for integrating social determinants and equity into the set of targets and indicators to be developed as part of the NCD surveillance, monitoring and evaluation.
• Ongoing delivery of an overall capacity building programme for systematic use of disaggregated data and diverse methods and approaches for assessing data and knowledge on gender, other social determinants and equity. This will include targeted technical assistance for the development of country-specific products such as health inequalities profile or an SDH report; and in-country capacity building workshops (as requested and appropriate) on use of specific tools and approaches such as equity focused Health Impact Assessment and or linked to ICP/multicountry work as part of the SDH/Equity Solutions lab.
Priority objectives beyond 2012:
Same as ongoing for 2012 and activities for 2012 e.g. manual on collection and use of evidence for action on social determinants and health inequalities (see below).
New work to be undertaken in 2012:
• Development of a manual for all 53 Member States on collecting and assessing evidence on gender, other social determinants and equity for development of evidence informed policy. It will be based on, adapt and advance the findings from the final report and guide from the global Measurement & Evidence knowledge network with regard to developing policy options for tackling the social determinants of health inequalities.
• Development and delivery of an intensive 5-day training and capacity building programme on the systematic use of disaggregated data and diverse methods and approachesfor assessing data and knowledge on gender, social determinants and equity for informing the development, implementation, monitoring and or evaluation of health policies and programmes for improved health and gender equity.
Meetings for 2012:
• Meetings of advisory and expert group to be established for development of guidance and capacity building programme.
• Workshop with Member States to deliver intensive 5 day capacity building and training programme.
Gender statistics
Strengthen WHO's capacity to provide reliable information on gender inequalities in health to inform policies and programmes in countries.
Ongoing methodological work:
• To revise the main WHO databases from a gender perspective identifying gaps and making recommendations for improvement.
• Selection and review of key gender-sensitive indicators. This builds upon the work carried out at the global level and the recommendations from the WHO consultation on Gender- Sensitive health indicators to support country monitoring, Washington 2010.
New activities:
• Gender analysis of the WHO databases. This work started in January 2012 and will continue throughout the year.
• Collaboration with the European Institute for Gender Equality on the development of a satellite index on gender equality in health.
• Development of a Solid Facts on gender inequities and health in the European Region. This will be based on the analysis of the existing WHO data and the findings of the SDH Review.
• Development of gender sensitive indicators to monitor well-being.
3. Environment and multi-domain statistics (WHO Europe)
3.1 Environment (WHO Europe)
Environment and Health
The purpose is to provide data, information and analytical synthesis on the interrelationships between environment and public health issues (EH). This process allows monitoring of EH trends. Progress with regard to the implementation of EH policies is quantified and this generates the evidence-base to support EH decision-making in countries of the WHO European Region.
Ongoing methodological work:
• Final stages of the development of methodologies for new exposure and health effect indicators that will facilitate the efficient implementation of time-bound international commitments to protect children from the effects of environmental factors outlined at the 5th Ministerial Conference on Environment and Health (Parma, Italy, 2010).
• Development of standardized data collection, processing and analysis methodologies for new surveillance programmes to assess exposure to environmental factors in children's facilities and pre-natal exposures to developmental toxicants.
• Development of a new IT platform and database for the European Environment and Health Information System (ENHIS) to improve the presentation of indicator-based information on environmental exposures, health effects and EH oriented policy actions for decision-making and EH professionals.
• Assistance to selected Member States in the development and implementation of national EH information systems.
Priority objectives beyond 2012:
• Methodological support to Member States in the implementation of new EH data collection programmes for monitoring the implementation of international commitments to protect children from EH risks.
• Further development of ENHIS databases to enable storage and pooled analysis of raw EH data from Member States.
• Further development of ENHIS indicators on exposure, to support burden of disease analysis.
• Incorporation of EH inequality measures in ENHIS indicators.
New work to be undertaken in 2012:
• Implementation of a new data base and IT platform for the European Environmental Health Information System (ENHIS), integrated into the IT infrastructure of the WHO Regional Office for Europe.
• Updating data for the existing indicators of exposure and health effects in ENHIS.
• Conducting new EH policy surveys in Member States to assess the EH policy situation in relation to new international commitments adopted at the 5th Ministerial Conference (Parma, 2010).
• Pilot testing and implementation in ENHIS of new exposure and health effect indicators for monitoring of the implementation of time-bound international commitments to protect children from the effects of environmental factors.
• Pilot testing of new indicators related to the impacts of climate change on health and the environment and incorporation of these indicators into the European Environment and Health Information System (ENHIS). (The development of indicator methodologies had been conducted under a contract between the WHO Regional Office for Europe and the European Commission/DG Sanco).
Meetings planned for 2012:
• Technical meeting on the implementation of new ENHIS indicators for monitoring Parma conference commitments.
• Meeting of the European Environment and Health Task Force (a policy governing body of the European EH Process) on monitoring of Parma commitments and the use of new proposed indicators.

C6 Transmission?
Not 100% sure on this but anyways was told i got a c6 transmission just the factory auto gearbox that goes with the ford 460bigblock.
but my question is with the gearbox linkage how it goes up or down . . . which way is to put it in park? just curious because mines not hooked up yet and the linkage bit on the transmission is sitting at the top which i assume is park? but not sure if its in park or in 1st . . .
because there isnt much transmission fluid in the tranny yet and iv started my engine a few times not for long just to sort out the points etc but im worried it might have been in 1st gear instead of park and the no trans fluid will break might break gearbox? ..... also does it matter if i start it with none/very little trans fluid if its in park and not moving just to tune the engine
any info on this would be great :) i can put trans fluid in but got to sort out my dipstick holder leak first otherwise it just all leaks out and it'l be a waste so just left it for now thinking its not going to harm it but im not sure . .
finding park
On most automatic transmissions you can hold out your hand with your fingers spread, the space between park and reverse should be like the space between your thumb and index finger.The spacing between N, D, D1, Lo is the same. The exception was on the early Ford C 6, the spacing between all the positions was the same. A few people got killed when they thought they had the trans lever in park but they were in the space between park and reverse, get out with the engine running. emergency brake not set, bump shift lever,it would move into reverse . the car would back up running over you.

According to the San Francisco Chronicle, San Francisco police have talked to 49ers wide receiver Michael Crabtree following allegations that he sexually assaulted a women shortly after last Saturday's playoff win over the Packers. The assault allegedly took place at a San Francisco hotel in the early hours of Jan. 13. Crabtree, who has not been detained or arrested, has agreed to make himself available for further police interviews and is fully expected to play Sunday against the Falcons.
Fantasy Analysis:
More on this story as it comes along. Crabtree has looked like one of the league's best receivers since the start of December. He has 44 catches, 657 yards and touchdowns in his past six games. Right now, I think he's an easy top-12 WR for 2013. That seems like a crazy statement considering what most thought of him -- and rightfully so -- just a few months ago.

Try Athena's unique flavours and generous meals to amaze your appetite. Though Greek peasant's salad offers no lettuce, it abounds with tomatoes, cucumbers, capers, olives, green peppers, feta cheese and onions. Hummus dip arrives as a nice paste of garbanzo beans, garlic, olive oil, lemon and sesame, which is almost chewy because of its thick lusciousness; scoop with thin pita bread. Spanakorizo spinach is highly recommended because its rice-speckled mixture of onions, garlic, lemon, dill, olive oil and condiments gives this generous portion of greens a wonderful robustness. Kotopoulo chicken is a big leg grilled with spices, including oregano, alongside potatoes and other treats. Alaiares fish comes with onions in tomato sauce and a side of potatoes. Soups, vegetarian dishes, grilled beef and other meat tempt in a crowded menu which also offers other seafood choices. For dessert, you must try alaniares, tasty peach or apricot with yoghurt and cinnamon.

Only with a fat 26" slick in the rear and a 26 x 1" slick up front. I'll change out the fork to a flat blade, as I just came across a guy with a huge bucket of forks! The 24 x 3" is tempting, however. What size rim do those take again?

8Ball & MJG recorded a few additional albums for Tony Draper throughout the remainder of the decade -- On the Outside Looking In (1994), On Top of the World (1995), In Our Lifetime, Vol. 1 (1999) -- and did much to foster the growth of Suave, regularly being featured as guests on the label's other releases. Plus, 8Ball and MJG each branched out for solo projects, Lost (1998) and No More Glory (1997), respectively, both released by Suave. In 2000, 8Ball & MJG left Suave and switched to JCOR Entertainment, a short-lived rap label founded by Jay Faires, for the release of Space Age 4 Eva. The album, which notably featured production by Swizz Beatz and DJ Quik, was a departure for 8Ball & MJG, who heretofore had worked more or less exclusively with regional producers. The album spawned a pair of minor hits, "Pimp Hard" and "Buck Bounce," the duo's first to first to get national, opposed to regional, airplay. In 2001, JCOR released a pair of 8Ball albums -- The Slab, a various-artists compilation, and Almost Famous, a proper solo album -- but the label then ran into trouble and went out of business, leaving 8Ball & MJG without a recording contract. Meanwhile, Tony Draper released Lay It Down (2001), a compilation of Suave-era leftovers featuring 8Ball.
After a couple years in limbo, Bad Boy Records, helmed by Diddy, picked up 8Ball & MJG and released Living Legends (2004), the duo's most star-studded album to date. "You Don't Want Drama," the lead single, became 8Ball & MJG's biggest hit ever, reaching number 30 on Billboard's Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles chart, while Living Legends itself likewise became the duo's best-selling, debuting at number three on the Top 200 album chart and topping 500,000 in sales. 8Ball & MJG's second Bad Boy album, Ridin High (2007), was less successful, though, despite debuting well at number eight and spawning a strong lead single, "Relax and Take Notes." In addition to these Bad Boy albums, 8Ball revived 8 Ways Entertainment -- a vanity label of his which had lain dormant since its 2001 debut on The Slab, an aforementioned various-artists compilation showcasing the talent assembled around the label -- and secured a distribution deal with Navarre. A series of 8Ball-associated releases resulted, beginning with a 2006 re-release of The Slab, and subsequently including Montana Trax: The Boy Somethin' Great (2006), Light Up the Bomb (2006), and The Vet & the Rookie. ~ Jason Birchmeier

Hi, searching the web I found a site with detailed instructions on how to make the Boba Fett vest. Most of it is general knowledge but I foun it to be a very detailed tutorial. Since most of us are going to be making our vest with the new fabric soon, I thought it would help. If a pic is not working the web address is:
Thanks Secol for hosting the images. By the way, I think the website belongs to a fellow member.
Boba Fett Flak Vest
A. Simplicity pattern #9637. Yes, I know its a cheerleader pattern. It goes up to a size 18, or about a 40 inch chest, so make sure you get the right pattern size packet, guys. Buy twice as much fabric as it says on the back for the sleeveless v-neck pattern, or about 3 yards. Youll need a gray for ROTJ or Preproduction (I use satin inside out), or white for ESB.
B. Get either an invisible zipper (hard), or 2 feet if Velcro.
C. Get 2 yards of a thin-medium interfacing, so youll be sure to have enough.
D. You should also pick up a washable fabric pattern marker while youre there.
E. Thread to match your fabric.
F. Piping. It comes in little packets. You can get white, but gray is less common. If you cant find your color, youll have to carefully sew over it in your fabric.
G. Time It took me about a day, but I fooled around a whole lot during that time. If you work hard and dont mess up a lot, you should be able to get it done in 2-3 hours at most.
* Special note about this pattern. Its made for women. (Duh). Its a good idea to measure your shoulders if youre a guy, and make sure that the shoulders in the pattern will be large enough for you. The shoulder seam should be RIGHT ON your shoulder, not drooping down at all. If you see that the pattern is only one inch bigger than your shoulders, extend it by a ½ inch so that you have a little room. If its the same size as your shoulders, extend it by 1 ½ inches. The pattern should be about that much larger than your shoulders.
1. Cut out all the pattern pieces youll need from the pattern paper Cut out the ROUND neck top back, round neck top front, and long sleeve. No, theres no NECK. Bobas vest doesnt have an attached neck, so dont put one on.
2. You will need to cut DOUBLE the fabric pieces that the pattern says. I dont put interfacing in the back of the vest, but I still use double the material thickness. Otherwise, the difference is too much between front and back.
3. Lay out the pattern for the front. Fold up the bottom, like in the first picture, so that its the right length. It should be about four inches or so above your waist, but look at a pic of Fett to be sure. Fold it and hold it up to your body in front a mirror. Remember to add about an inch for seams, because odds are youll guess and make the vest too short.
4. Now to measure for the sleeve. You can see in picture two how much of the sleeve I used. The line didnt come out in the picture, so I photoshopped another rough one in. It is really just a little cap, not even a sleeve. Mine are a little over 5 inches long when I cut them out. (Stop thinking that, I can read your mind!) Anyway, yours will be about the same length. Fetts are really very short.
5. Like in picture 3, you can check your sleeve against the front piece. The sleeve will NOT go all the way to the bottom of the armhole. Its shorter than that.
6. Like in picture 4, make you sure shorten the back to the same length as you shortened the front.
7. Cut out all the pieces, and interfacing for the sleeves and front piece.
8. Sewing in interfacing can be weird if youve never done it before, so pay close attention to the instructions.
9. First lets start with the back pieces. Trust me on these; the way I sew this vest will keep you from having to do annoying finish work. YOU ARE NOT SEWING ANY PIECES TO EACH OTHER TO FORM ANYTHING RESEMBLING A VEST YET. WE ARE DEALING WITH INDIVIDUAL PIECES BY THEMSELES RIGHT NOW. ILL LET YOU KNOW WHEN WE MOVE ON. Got it? Ok, take the two pieces that you cut out for the left side of the back. With right sides together, sew them together at the BOTTOM, INSIDE (the part that will get the Velcro), AND NECK. Dont sew the shoulders or the outsides. Do the same thing with the right side. Now turn those right side out. The neck bottom, and inside edge should look like they have a finished edge to them.
10. Take the left sleeve, put right sides together, and put interfacing on the side. It doesnt matter what side. Pin it just like that. Trim the interfacing about a quarter inch. Sew it only across the BOTTOM, not the part thats going to get sewn onto the vest later. See picture 6. Now take just one layer of the vest fabric and pull it over the interfacing. Look, you formed a finished edge! Doesnt the interfacing look cute all tucked inside? No, I didnt think so either.
11. Do the same with the right sleeve.
12. Take the front piece, put right sides together, and put the interfacing on one side. Pin them just like that. Sew them together only at the NECK and BOTTOM. Nowhere else. Now pull one layer of the vest over and sort of inside out so that the interfacing is tucked inside. Its not cute this time either, no. But see how the neck edge is finished, and the bottom edge is finished? Thats nice, isnt it? You dont have to go back and fiddle with those later. And it looks just like Bobas! See picture 9.
13. Go back to the sleeves. Take your fabric pen and a ruler and mark out the stitch lines, just like in picture 7. Sew right over those lines. You could do it without marking them, but its harder. Just mark them. Yeah, I know what youre thinking, and Ive seen a lot of people whose vests have a crisscross pattern of stitches. See, the thing is, on Fetts suit, Ive never seen any evidence of crisscrossing. Theyre just lines. Absolutely, positively for sure on Pre-production and ESB, just pretty sure on ROTJ. When youre done, theyll look like picture 8.
14. Okay, NOW ITS TIME TO START PUTTING SOME PIECES TOGETHER. Just so you know. Do a dance of joy, you dont have that much work left. As long as you dont mess up and have to rip stuff out.
15. Take the back pieces, with the finished edges out, and the front piece, finished edges out, and sew them together at the shoulders. See pictures 9 and 10.
16. Time to sew in the sleeves. Cut two lengths of piping equal to how long the tops of the sleeves are. Pin these on to the RIGHT side of the fabric on one sleeve hole on the vest. Look at picture 11 for all the pins you need to hold it in place.
17. Now pin the sleeve in, right sides together, starting in what you are positive to be the center of the sleeve. Be careful to pin exactly right on top of the piping, so that you can just sew that 1/8th of an inch on top of the sleeve and know that it will look right. See picture 11 again.
18. Now see picture 12 for how many pins youre supposed to use. At LEAST. Dont get lazy with the pins. The secret to good sewing is all in the pins.
19. Now, youll need to take the bottom of the sleeve and fold it back a tiny bit, then fold it again to cover the raw edge. This is because Fetts sleeves are too short to go all the way around his armhole. See picture 13. Fold it back for about two inches down the length of the vest (but only about ¼ inch in). This will give you plenty of room when youre doing those super-cool Fett poses. You might want to pin the sides closed and do a test to make sure the armholes are big enough at this point. If not, fold them down a little more. Sew them.
20. Sew the sides closed.
21. Sew Velcro, see picture 14.
22. See picture 15 for a final product. You will probably look more manly in your vest than I look in mine. That is because you are a man. Try yours on and wear it around, trying to bring it back into fashion. Wonder why other people just dont understand your Star Wars obsession.
23. If you use a jet pack harness, youll need to figure out where you want the holes to be in your vest, then finish the edges with some kind of edge finisher. When I did it, I just used the finisher setting on the sewing machine. I dont use a harness any more because my jet pack only weighs a few pounds, so I am not going to be putting in any holes.
24. You can sew in Velcro or add snaps for the armor. I dont recommend attaching it with hot glue, as I did with my first vest. The fabric will eventually tear.

Joshua Lederberg and Edward L. Tatum publish the first paper on a type of bacterial mating called conjugation. The proof is based on the generation of daughter cells able to grow in media that cannot support growth of either of the parent cells. Their experiments showed that this type of gene exchange requires direct contact between bacteria. At the time Lederberg began studying with Tatum, scientists believed that bacteria reproduced asexually, but from the work of Beadle and Tatum, Lederberg knew that fungi reproduced sexually and he suspected that bacteria did as well.

Home > News & Events > Events Calendar > The MoveOn Effect: The Unexpected Transformation of American Political Advocacy
Online politics is neither limited to "clicktivism" nor comprised of "organizing without organizations." In Dave Karpf's new book, he presents evidence that the new media environment has given rise to a new generation of political advocacy groups. These organizations have redefined membership and fundraising regimes. They have established novel tools for gauging supporter opinion and pioneered nimble mobilization tactics that keep pace with the accelerated media cycle. These tactical innovations have not spread equally to older interest groups. Nor have they spread equally across the political spectrum—"netroots" political organizations are much stronger on the left than the right. In Karpf's research presentation, he will highlight key findings and ongoing puzzles regarding the nature and scope of the "MoveOn Effect" in American politics.

Dr.'s Racaniello and Despommier,
Hello! To start off like so many of the messages you receive thank you so much for this wonderful podcast! I'm a huge fan of both TWIP and TWIV and have listened to every episode to date in both. It's fantastic how you present all of the information in a conversational way that is understandable for such a diverse audience of listeners. You two, along with your cohorts on TWIV, continue to feed my interest and very very limited knowledge in the fields of parasitology and virology.
I am a medical and biological illustrator/animator who became very interested in the field of parasitology while working on my graduate thesis at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. My preceptor, Dr. Rhoel R. Dinglasan, an associate professor at the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health (JHSPH), who besides being incredibly intelligent and enthusiastic, sparked my fascination with the malaria parasites, and the field in general. And thanks to you I can continue to stay up to date and expand my knowledge in this field.
That being said I thought you might enjoy the new issue of the JHSPH magazine. It's all about malaria! I really enjoyed articles and reading about what research is being done and also why some of the researchers focus on various aspects of combating this disease, such as control vs. eradication. Plus there is the main illustration that beautifully depicts the life cycle of the malarial parasite that was created by an incredible medical illustrator Jennifer E. Fairman. There is an interactive version of this illustration on the magazine site too. To view this issue please follow the link below: http://magazine.jhsph.edu/2011/malaria
I thought that you would enjoy this illustration too as you have mentioned aspects of my field on both your podcasts in the past. Specifically you have commented on molecular animations by David Bolinsky of XVIVO who is at the top of the field in this area. You might already know about this but in case you do not, the web site http://www.molecularmovies.com/ showcases some of the most beautiful molecular animations out there. This site has a two-part animation by another amazing medical animator, Drew Berry, on the life cycle of the malarial parasite. Don't despair Dr. Racaniello there are many animations on there about viruses there too!
Again thank you for putting all of the time and effort that it must take to prepare and deliver such a fantastic podcast! I'm looking forward to all of your future episodes!
P.S. In appreciation for your sharing of knowledge and enthusiasm for science I've attached an illustration of mine for you of the malaria life cycle with in the mosquito. I know it's not enough to repay you for your generous service but it's a start.

I am a med tech and a member of a group of people with immune diseases who is interested in helminithic therapy. We listened with great interest to the TWIP on Trichuris trichiura, which some of us are already using. I wanted to ask you when you will be covering hookworm, and if you could discuss the therapeutic benefits of Necator americanus, which some of us are also using. I liked the Trichuris podcast so much I am going back and listening to all the old episodes. I am interested in how trichinella could be used therapeutically. I believe you said that if the larvae are injected directly into skeletal muscle, they would immediately infect the muscle cells. Would this mean that by bypassing the migration phase, the infection would not cause pathology?
I have a family member with eosinophilic esophagitis, which is a disease that fits the hygiene hypothesis perfectly: sudden recent increase in incidence, atopic disease, more common in children, and the eosinophilic response is supposed to fight off parasites. This is a horrible disease that causes much suffering and often leaves the person unable to tolerate any food, needing a feeding tube and elemental formula. Do you know anything about the incidence of this disease compared to the incidence of parasites worldwide?
Keep up the good work,

Hi TWiP fellas,
I should be working but I'm procrastinating by writing you.
I'm finally hooked on TWiP. Great show. Sorry it took a while. Until now my taste in podcasts has been a bit narcissistic.
I know this is a family show, but I really need to know if tapeworms have sex. You keep talking about "eggs" but my sense is that these are not haploid nor are they zygotes, but rather multicellular larvae encased in a shell. Right?
So do tapeworms have a haploid phase? Are there sexes? Assuming there is a haploid phase, when, where and how during the life cycle does fertilization take place? If tapeworms are hermaphrodites, do they self-fertilize, or is there a chance to mix it up with other worms, or both?
Thanks and keep up the good work.

Just wanted to drop you guys a line and let you know I enjoyed the podcast. I found TWiP while actually looking for a podcast about photography, but gave it a listen anyways. I'll be downloading every episode from now on. Parasitology was my favorite class as a undergrad. Thanks for the work you do!

Hey Docs!
I'm a computer programmer who listens to podcasts on my long commute. The highest science education that I've had was college Chemistry. As an Electrical Engineer the science classes we took tended to not be biology oriented, so while some of it is over my head, to say that I find biotech and molecular biology fascinating is an understatement.
On to my question: I was born in 1970 in southern Louisiana. My uncle had a horse and we (me, my Dad, my uncle) would scoop the manure out of the stall and put it into a pile on the side of the horse barn. Some months later, after the manure had been exposed to the weather and sun-dried, we'd scoop it into the wheelbarrow and put it, along with composted grass clippings, in the garden as we tilled the soil for planting. I was wondering what kind of worms and/or other parasites we might have been exposed to by using horse manure to fertilize our vegetable garden. If I'm understanding things correctly, I don't think there is any danger from worms lasting long enough to get into our veggies and infect
us, but what about direct contact when handling the sun-dried manure (shovels and gloves, but still "stuff" happens)? And is there really anything to fear other than worms? I am in good health, so I think the answer is probably no, I'm just learning for learning's sake.
P.S. Lately I've been listening to the FiB, TWiV, and TWiP podcasts to the point where I'm neglecting my techie podcasts. You guys are causing me to lose some of my geek creds :-)
Regards... Todd

Posted by Jennifer Belissent on the Customer Insights Professionals Blog on April 2, 2010
I just returned from Cisco Networkers 2010 in Bahrain, and wanted to put a few thoughts to paper (or the electronic equivalent). First of all, thank you Cisco. What a fantastic event for all involved!
The event was held at the Bahrain International Circuit (BIC), and boasted attendance of over 3,000 delegates from Bahrain and more than 60 other countries. Not only was the event an opportunity for technical training for the attendees but it was also an opportunity for local Cisco partners to present their products and solutions. Both are consistent with Cisco's emerging markets strategy of country transformation – to create an environment conducive to expanding opportunity in emerging markets rather than merely exploiting existing opportunity. Cisco works with governments and other non-governmental organizations in certain emerging markets to help develop the ICT infrastructure and local technical skills in order to build the market, and further enable economic development of the country. Holding Networkers 2010 in Bahrain demonstrated Cisco's commitment to their country transformation strategy.

Craig Eastmond has joined Championship side Millwall until the end of the season.
The 20-year-old central midfielder has been a regular in the Arsenal Reserves this term, with ten appearances for Neil Banfield's team.
Craig's good form has also secured him three first team appearances in 2010/11, including a first outing in the Champions League, being named in the starting line-up for the Group Stage match in Ukraine against Shakhtar Donetsk.
In a break-through 2009/10 season, Eastmond made his first-team debut for Arsène Wenger's side against Liverpool in the Carling Cup before going on to make seven senior appearances, and also signing a new long-term contract in January 2010.
Wandsworth-born Eastmond, who has now made a total of 10 first team appearances for the Club, joined Arsenal aged just 10 and was an integral part of the 2009 FA Youth Cup winning side.
In Millwall, Eastmond rejoins the club where his fledgling career began as a youngster, before moving to Arsenal.
Everyone at Arsenal Football Club wishes Craig the best of luck during his time with Kenny Jackett's team.Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc. Permission to use quotations from this article is granted subject to appropriate credit being given to www.arsenal.com as the source

With Opera 12.00 the inserted script fails upon trying to append style for the menu to head, if there is a (possibly trivial) #text node between <head> and <body> (as there happens to be in MyOpera fora). This leads to a HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR exception risen at script.js:280:
«« document.body.previousSibling.appendChild(style);
This can be fixed by using [i]Element Traversal[/i] Spec (http://www.w3.org/TR/ElementTraversal/), which Opera 12 supports, this way:
»» document.body.previousElementSibling.appendChild(style);
Or by selecting <head> a completely different way.
Thanks man, it actually fixes it with O12, great tip!
The reason I wrote it that way is because I didn't realize Opera had already added querySelector support in Opera 10, and document.head wasn't supported until Opera 11. Since extension support wasn't added until Opera 11 you can safely use document.head, which was also added with that version. My fix for the UserJS looks like this: https://github.com/Frenzie/textarea-backup/commit/18c6f7914dfdca493c315a2cf4dba5e87f202530

Another annoying bug in this extension. Well it is too complex to explain where this happens.. Dunno even how to help you fix it :( Ok, it brokes functionality of database site that works on http://clientbase.ru/ platform. Again if you need help in fixing it just send me a message. Using Opera 11.50 also same problem.

It is not working with FCKEditor 188.8.131.52. It simply doesn't load/remember anything. However it seems to work on other sites with simple textareas. I am so frustrated ... I installed it specifically to work on our knowledge base at my workplace, but it is useless exactly where I need it the most (of course don't take it as a personal offense, just an observation).
It seems that FCKEditor is always loaded after this extension.
Hmm, I understand that, but could you something about it or maybe talk to the Opera site patching dews to load FCKEditor before plugins?
Sorry but I really can't do anything about it. It depends on how FCKEditor works.

This doesn't seem to work on GameFAQs message boards. e.g Here's a thread on the GameFAQs board for the Game Boy: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/916375-game-boy/59015743--the top right button simply never appears; it's just like the extension doesn't exist.
I'm sorry I didn't see any textareas in the page even I've logged in. Could you please capture the page that shows the problem?
Sorry, there's an option in the site settings to add a quick post box at the bottom of the page, I think it's disabled by default. You should be able to use the "classic style" posting here: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/post.php?board=916375&topic=59015743
I tested Textarea Backup Localstorage in this page just now... It worked fine. No problem appeared.
You can test it by doing something like this: type something in the textarea and then refresh the page. There will be a red button on right-top of the textarea.
Still not working on GameFAQs for me--I can verify that it works elsewhere--Opera forums, Google Translate, etc. Thus far GameFAQs is the only site that hasn't worked for me. There's no warnings or errors in the Error Console, either; I've checked repeatedly. The extension is definitely working otherwise, and I've already used it without issue a number of times. It just doesn't work on GameFAQs on my end.
Just to verify that I understand at least the very surface aspects of how the extension works, here's a screenshot showing it working just fine on hcs64.com while simultaneously not working at all on gamefaqs.com: http://i54.tinypic.com/2rokjo2.jpg
Ahh.. Maybe you can try reinstalling the extension.. But I have no idea whether will it help at all..

Sorry but unfortunately still does not work for me opera:config#PersistentStorage|DomainQuotaForlocalStorage is not disabled. Value = 5120.
Please check out if there are errors in the Error Console (Ctrl+Shift+O) when visiting the web page where this extension dosen't work. Tell me the URL of the page.
It will be very helpful if you could show me the screenshot about the textarea when this extension dosen't work.

By now, you must have read plenty of Internet Explorer 9 reviews and probably, many of you are also using the IE9 beta. Most of the reviews focus on the speed, user interface, and GPU rendering. However, there are still many things that you might have not noticed. This article will cover how to disable searching from address bar in IE9.
You may wonder about the benefits of disabling Search from Address bar. The reason is privacy. If you are on a shared computer, IE9 will not show your search items to others if you disable the Search. In this case, even if the other person opens up Google, Bing, or any other search engine, he or she might not be able to locate your search items. To further protect your privacy, you can opt to delete your browsing history when you exit Explorer. Open the Internet Options by clicking on the Tools icon in the top right corner of your browser window.
In the very first tab (the General tab), click to select Delete browsing history on exit. This way, even if they use IE9 and open a new tab page, there will be no traces of the sites you visited.
For your part, all you have to do is to close IE9, once you are done with your work and the browser will erase all traces of your work. If anyone is peeping from behind when you are working, press Windows key + D to minimize all applications or ALT + TAB to switch to another application.
Basically, the role of a search provider is to use the corresponding search engine when you try to search anything using the IE9 Address bar. For example, if your default search provider is Bing and you type anything in the Address bar, Bing will search for the text and not any other search engine. IE9 contains many built-in search providers with Bing as default search provider.
The IE9 team has enabled search in the Address bar so that you can search, from there, for anything you want. All you need to do is to type your search in the Address bar and hit Enter. You get the search results from the default search provider. The following paragraphs explain how to disable search from IE9 address bar.
How to Disable Searching from Address Bar in Internet Explorer 9
To disable search from the Address bar, open Internet Explorer.
Again, click the Tools icon on the top-right corner of the IE9 window, and select Manage add-ons.
Once you click on the Manage add-ons, you will be presented with a Manage Add-ons dialog box. Click to select Search Providers. The option is available to left.
In the above dialog box, you can see the option Search in the address bar towards lower-left corner.
The default setting keeps the option checked, which means search is enabled. To disable search from IE9 address bar, simply uncheck the option and click on Close.
Close and re-open IE9 and try to search using the Address bar. You will get a message saying Website not found!
To enable search through the Address bar, follow the same steps and check the box beside Search in the Address bar.

a place for zinesters - writers and readers
i know theres a group dedicated to this but i thought id make a post anyway if thats ok?? i hope it is :)
i love having pen pals but at the moment i keep getting what seems like *pen pals* but they just end up not writing back to me. and quite frankly its giving me a complex. lol :P
i was just wondering if anyone here would be up for writing?:) i love long chatty letters and sending fun things when i can too like mix tapes, decos, stickers etc. all sorts of things.
i guess i should write more of a description of myself but i havent got time at the moment.
id better go,
Views: 87
Id love to, but you might find me just as bad..... See when I get a letter I always think to myself "Wow how awsome of this person to write to me, I should take my time and really think about what Ill write back with"
And then I forget D:
Once I've cut down my outbound mail pile I'll get started on a letter.
Penpalling has frustrated me too lately, with how many people say "write to me, write to me",and then don't write back...
I want to be a penpal! The next meeting of my local chapter of Pal-Sac is tomorrow night, so if any interesting parties send me a WMZ message with their mailing address in it, I'll write then!
Hannah S.
PO Box 1458
Springfield, MO 65801
I added you to my friend list, Hannah, so I could send you my address! I just put a stamp on a letter to you too.
WMZ. That's got me shaking my head that I actually asked that question :)
Imagine how great the world would be again if we could all write and send hand-written letters.
And people's attention spans would be back to normal levels.
Ah the good old days.

The Macromolecular, Supramolecular and Nanochemistry (MSN) Program focuses on basic research that addresses fundamental questions regarding the chemistry of macromolecular, supramolecular and nanoscopic species and other organized structures and that advances chemistry knowledge in these areas. Research of interest to this program will explore novel chemistry concepts in the following topics: (1) The development of novel synthetic approaches to clusters, nanoparticles, polymers, and supramolecular architectures; innovative surface functionalization methodologies; surface monolayer chemistry; and template-directed synthesis. (2) The study of molecular-scale interactions that give rise to macromolecular, supramolecular or nanoparticulate self-assembly into discrete structures; and the study of chemical forces and dynamics that are responsible for spatial organization in discrete organic, inorganic, or hybrid systems (excluding extended solids). (3) Investigations that utilize advanced experimental or computational methods to understand or to predict the chemical structure, unique chemical and physicochemical properties, and chemical reactivities that result from the organized or nanoscopic structures. Research in which theory advances experiment and experiment advances theory synergistically is of special interest.
Submissions that advance MSN chemistry knowledge important for addressing national needs for sustainability are of particular interest. Examples include: 1) transformative approaches to the efficient and inexpensive synthesis of recyclable polymers or polymers using renewable feedstocks; 2) innovative research to enhance our understanding of the supramolecular recognition of critical elements essential for efficient sequestration and recycling of such elements; 3) innovative research to enhance our understanding of the supramolecular chemistry important for the design and synthesis of catalysts that rival enzymes in substrate specificity, stereoselectivity, yields, and efficiency (selection or genetic engineering of enzymes or screening of combinatorial libraries of catalysts are not of interest); 4) novel chemistry of nanostructures comprised of earth-abundant elements to substitute for nanostructures that contain critical elements; and 5) innovative approaches to the preparation of novel nanostructures of critical elements for efficient/sustainable use of these elements. The MSN Program encourages white paper submissions for potential EAGER proposals on highly innovative and potentially transformative ideas on these topics.
Submissions that address the role of the chemistry of nitrogen, phosphorous, and water in the nexus of food, energy and water systems, are particularly encouraged. The most competitive proposals under this topic will address both innovations in fundamental research AND the sustainability of the proposal solution (i.e., the resources and energetic costs for translation, scale up, deployment and maintenance.) An example of INFEWS chemistry appropriate for the Macromolecular and Nanochemistry Program is to grain understanding of the supramolecular recognition and binding of environmentally relevant nitrogen- or phosphorous-containing species. Such efforts are essential for the selective and efficient detection, sequestration/separation, and recycling of these elements as well as for water purification efforts.
Proposals for which the primary focus is on extended solids, materials research, biological properties, device properties, or engineering are not appropriate for this program, and the principal investigator is encouraged to look into corresponding programs at NSF for proposal submission.

My teacher follows, for the most part, the Thai Forest Tradition (being himself a student of Ven. Thanissaro Bhikkhu). However, every once in awhile he will throw something out there that doesn't quite jibe with my understanding of the Dhamma in the context of Theravada doctrine. The other night during a course he was teaching on Mindfulness of Death he had us all sit and practice non-doing. I believe this was intended to allow us to experience the miracle of the present and to appreciate being alive but I experienced strong resistance and aversion to it. I feel somewhat ashamed to even be writing this as I feel as though I'm slighting a my teacher but the whole thing just seemed kind of New Age-y. Anyway, I would just like to get some thoughts on how the concept or practice of Non-Doing might be received and/or practiced in a Theravadin context.
clw_uk wrote:Did he instruct you just to sit and thats it? If he did it sounds simillar to a Zen practice.
There is a meditation practice taught in the Thai Forest Tradition where you just sit in silent present moment awareness, this is close to non-doing meditation but you are mindful not to think about what is happening or to look to past of future. Its usually taught as a foundation practice to strenghten mindfulness and stop the mind wandering.
clw_uk wrote:Its the first chapter of teachings in "Mindfulness, bliss and beyond" so I assume its basic
The basic concept is that meditators tend to think about what is happening "Is this jhana" and then lose concentration, or think about past or future "how much longer" "Im going to do this later", so you learn to abandon these thoughts and focus on the moment, then procede to breath.
clw_uk wrote:There must be a difference between the two, i dont think ajahn bram would give advanced meditation teachings to beginners
Choiceless awareness is a type of meditation which arises most prominently from the Theravadan tradition (sometimes also called the Forest tradition) of Buddhism
My recollection of that part of Ajahn Brahm's book was that this was a technique that could be used when experiencing difficulties in the more routine methods.
clw_uk wrote:My recollection of that part of Ajahn Brahm's book was that this was a technique that could be used when experiencing difficulties in the more routine methods.
He states that each stage needs to be perfected before moving on in his book, so you start with perfecting awareness of the moment, removing thoughts perceptions etc about past and future, then you move on to remove all thinking, then onto silent present moment of the breath and so on up into the immaterial meditations.
Ajahn Brahm wrote:At the end of each meditation session,spend two or three minutes reviewing
all that has happened during that session. There is no need to "take
notes" (that is, remind oneself to remember) during the meditation, because
you will find it easy to remember the important features at the end.
Was it peaceful or frustrating? Now ask yourself why.What did you do to
experience peace, or what caused the feeling of frustration? If your mind
wandered off into fantasy land,was that peaceful and useful? Such reviewing
and inquiry only at the end of the session generates insight into how to
meditate and what meditation is. No one starts out as a perfect meditator.
tiltbillings wrote:Choiceless awareness is a term coined by J. Krishnamurti and adopted and adapted by American vipassana teachers such as Jack Kornfeild and Joseph Goldstein.
If one's mindfulness and concentration do develop, then even
subtle mental phenomena become clear, and subtle aspects
of gross material phenomena are also observed. At those
phases, mental phenomena are watched more frequently.
At such times the effort is made mainly to maintain or
guard the mindfulness to ensure its continuity. The mind is
left to choose its objects, and one has no time to think. With
practice, mindfulness goes on by itself. This is also the time
when labeling is dropped. This type of undirected mindfulness
is called Choiceless Awareness which is often more
stable but comes about only after much practice.

Dental Hygiene Program Overview
The accredited dental hygiene program has been expanded and new students will receive a Bachelor of Applied Science (BAS) degree in Allied Health with an emphasis in Dental Hygiene. Once prerequisites are met, students start the program in spring quarter and take classes in sequence.
After 95 credits, students will receive an Associate of Applied Science (AAS–T) Degree in Allied Health and can then continue for the BAS degree. Students will earn a total of 195 credits during the full–time program, which includes working in the school's dental clinic.
Dental hygienists are an integral part of the dental team in providing patient care. They perform a variety of tasks including cleaning teeth, taking x–rays, administering local anesthetics, placing and contouring dental fillings and educating patients about oral hygiene. Note: The educational environment contains multiple latex products and exposure to potential blood borne pathogens. Current infection control standards are taught in the program.
The Dental Hygiene track is approved by the American Dental Association Commission on Dental Accreditation. Upon graduation, students will qualify to take all national and regional examinations required to be licensed as a Registered Dental Hygienist (RDH) in Washington State. Graduates are eligible to take the Dental Hygiene National Board and all Western Regional Examining Board (WREB) components and apply for a license as a registered dental hygienist.
BAS degree in Allied Health—Dental Hygiene—195 credits
- Students begin the Dental Hygiene program in spring quarter only; prerequisites can be taken any quarter.
- Students are accepted into the Dental Hygiene program after successful completion of prerequisites with a 2.5 minimum GPA, completion of a program application and a student successful selection/interview process.
- The Dental Hygiene program might be a good fit if you enjoy science and working with your hands, are comfortable interacting closely with people and possess keen attention to detail.
- Areas of study include organic chemistry, anatomy and physiology, nutrition, pharmacology and fundamentals of dental hygiene.
- Graduates generally work in dental offices in private practice or in public settings such as public health clinics, universities, schools, nursing homes and oral research facilities.
Career Opportunities
In addition to treating patients directly, dental hygienists may also work as educators, researchers, administrators, and in business. Clinical dental hygienists may work in a variety of healthcare settings such as private dental offices, schools, public health clinics, hospitals, managed care organizations, correctional institutions, and nursing homes, or in a corporate environment. In addition to the clinical role, dental hygienists may also work in an administrative capacity in any of the above locations.
Dental Hygiene Information Sessions
An information session is held each quarter at the Seattle Central College Dental Hygiene Clinic located at 2120 S. Jackson St, Seattle, WA 98144. Contact the Dental Hygiene office at 206.934.4186.

I'm sorry if this has been asked before but I did a search and couldn't find my answer. Is there a spot on the board that tells the main differences between the SE boba and the ROTJ besides just the ESB helmet with the ROTJ costume?
Would the GMH work well with a SE Fett?

Is the release not releasing or is it tight in the grip frame?
Try a thourough cleaning of magazine and grip frame then answer the above question..
again, i'm a newbie. my m9 won't drop an empty mag, i have to help it a bit. is there mag maintenance that i have to do? any help would be apprec.
Is the release not releasing or is it tight in the grip frame?
Try a thourough cleaning of magazine and grip frame then answer the above question..
the release is releasing, example, the mag will drop when full and weighted.
Get a can of Silicone spray at Ace Hardware or similar. Squirt inside the grip frame after thorough cleaning and examination for obvious tight spots. Look the Mag or preferably Mag's over for some sort of ding and spray them also.
Then report back.
PS: I forgot to ask earlier if you had more than 1 Mag and if both were a problem so I'm asking now.
thanks, i thoroughly cleaned the whole gun including the mag well. i then put some lubricant on the mags and wiped it around. smooth as silk! thank you for your help. Is this part of a standard cleaning regiment?
When you say smoothe as silk does that equal problem solved?
problem solved. but i do understand how lube could sttrsct debris. this silicone spray, can it be used in place of oil in general lubrication?
No. I only use the silicone spray for mag's. Rem oil, CLP or other general purpose gun oils will perform the lube duties required within the gun mechanism much better.
I do break my mags down, clean inside and out then spray inside and out with the silicone spray.
You don't need to do it often unless dropping them in the dirt during practice or competition. For most individuals once or twice a year is adequate.
I am pleased to be able to help. Pass it on when the opportunity arises for you to help someone else.
