|At one time there was a pic diagram of all the parts from the antenna up to the radio with part numbers listed. Anyone still have this? Im going nuts trying to find it. If i remember correctly, only the ant wire to the stereo and the module had different part # to hook up satellite. Thanx
|That is very useful. You da man
|whats prob happened is like my sel, the sat radio wasn't standard and some one changed the face plate and he module. sat button should be aux button. the issue with this is the car may not have the proper hookup. I took my se radio out that had sat and the difference is a cable that's not on my sel. no idea if there is a patch. looking into where it plugs into the harness to switch it all. that plug has to go to the sat ant.
Moved this thread to the Car audio, SYNC & MFT section where you may find other threads on the subject & get better responses.
Can't read the screen capture well, it does show a different antenna base that would be the Sirius antenna. Antenna cable changes as well, no listings on the page for the other parts shown.
Does your receiver have an "ESN" number on it? If not, the other module shown may be the actual satellite radio unit.
|I recently bought a Sirius equipped head unit and face plate (with the Sirius button for my recently purchased 2012 SEL. From what I have read scouring this forum, I will need to have the car flashed by a dealership to get this new head unit to work in the car. A question I can't find an answer for is what pieces of the antenna I will need to replace. There are specific satellite-enabled parts for a 2012 hatchback antenna. The screen capture is from http://www.group1autoparts.com/parts...enna-and-radio which shows the different part numbers for satellite enabled head units. . Anyone get this swap to work? What, if any, parts needed to be replaced in the antenna?
I think you need some type of module to enable Sirius even with the correct radio. See link for picture of parts to add Sirius via this company. $618 is way too much just to add Sirius though. There is a $50 refund for your old CD core though.
My 2012 Sirius Radio Project
Hello Focus Fanatics,
I'm a new member and like many of you have been pretty frustrated with Fords poor upgrade option, lack of information (even at the dealer) and cost for getting Sirius activated in the SEL models. I was informed by the dealer as well that a module (which seems to have no part#) was available for $700 plus installation. I love Satellite radio but not for $700. So I took a different approach to finding an option. So the 302A model does not have satellite radio and the SEL faceplate does not include the Sirius button (I has a AUX, button). In my research, it seems that the A203 Radio is the only option available with built in satellite which was offered in the Focus SE models. Both of the A302 and A203 have Sync by the way. So, I thought, heck, why not just look for a A203 radio. I called around, searched etc and found a auto dismantler that had a what I believe is a A203 radio and faceplate, cost $200. I could never find the actual A203 part number but I believe I have one from an SE, faceplate has Sirius Button and the actual radio has two satellite antenna inputs (see pic) unlike the A302 which has one.
My investigation continues... In removing the A302 in my car and inspecting the wiring harness, there is only 1 satellite antenna input. I looked everywhere and could not find a 2nd. So, I checked the wiring out of the actual antenna, simply pull away the rubber gasket (hatchback)and take a peek. Sure enough, there was only 1 satellite wire coming out. Conclusion is ford must have 2 antenna models or, they split the 1 satellite input (perhaps with the assumed Sirius module)
My test (and where I'm stuck).. So I have an extra roof mount satellite antenna which plugged right into the 2nd antenna input in the A203. The wiring harness is plug and play and I used the faceplate with the Sirius button. With fingers crossed, the unit worked, but when pressing the Sirius button, the displays states "Sirius not equipped, contact your dealer" I actually laughed my xxx-off. I tried all the tricks to get the ENS# displayed and the option in the display still has Sirius dimmed. (bummer)..
Where I can use some help.... Here is what I'm thinking:
1) The A203 has to be programmed with my VIN#, something with ODB is not connection.
2) I actually do not have a A203 Radio, in which case I have no clue for the 2nd antenna input
3) There is actually a Sirius module that goes with this radio..
As you can see, I'm a bit of a techie but do not have much info on #1 above. I have no issue with going to ford and having them program the radio, but my fear is they will not have a clue..
Appreciate any comments or feedback.. by the way, I took the small roof mount antenna and put it underneath the ford one. I ran the wires nicely to the front and have my XM Onyx radio working great using line-in and the 12v adapter. Lost my cup holder as it has become my radio holder.. still got my xm/sirius fix back on..
|Thanks for the help "doubles". Unfortunately, the 2012 focus uses a different radio than the '09-'11 and all I can find is aftermarket for $400+. Thats way more than what I want to spend to get Sirius. Maybe after a few parts cars start to show up I can find a cheap radio from one of them.
I have a 08 focus that had stock radio with the sirius button but when i pressed that button the display would say no sat radio.... so after alot of call and questions i was told that i had to have the reciever and to see if it was installed in trunk on drivers side behind the carpet in fenderwell..
i looked and nope didnt have it. I looked around for days for answers. heres what i did i went to ebay and bought another stock radio out of a 2010 focus got it installed and walla i now have siruis.
ford dealer said that 09 to 2011 came with the reciever built into the radio. so i looked at both radios side by side and sure enough there the same other than the 2010 has a esn # on it under the serial number and my stock 08 didnt.
anyways when i installed it i used my little sirius radio antenna that just sticks to roof by magenet but i did have to go to salvage yard and get just the end for the antenna plug i spliced it into my antenna and it works fine.
you can pick the radios up off ebay pretty cheap i gave $30.00 shipped for mine
I too just bought a 2012 Focus SEL back in September for my wife. Beautiful dark gray with black leather, Sync, 17" wheels the whole bit. The sales person told us that the radio was "Sirius" ready. http://www.focusfanatics.com/forum/i...smile_cool.gif
Well now I see I'm not going to be able to get Sirius either. I can bring it up in the menu but it wont highlight, and after many attempts to locate an ESN # none can be found.http://www.focusfanatics.com/forum/i...milies/mad.gif I don't understand how a Ford can make such a tec savvy car but too cheap to put in the maybe $50.00 part to make this work. If it's in there, it must work on other models. Ford should have either made it a working option or they should have left it out completely. My 2 cents

See the Gorillas of Rwanda with World Expeditions, one of the world's leading travel companies.
Rwanda is a landlocked republic in Equatorial Africa. This small but beautiful country is situated on the eastern rim of the Albertine Rift, the western arm of the Great Rift Valley. With such a large proportion of the country being mountainous, most of the country is cultivated in hillside terracing. As the most densely populated country in Africa with more than 10 million people, Rwanda needs to utilize all its land where possible. Situated to on the watershed between the Nile and the Congo, the highest peak is Karisimbi (4,507m) in the volcanic Virunga chain protected by the Volcanoes National Park. The largest body of water is Lake Kivu, but there are other numerous lakes around the country. Primarily a subsistence agriculture economy, Rwanda nonetheless produces for export some of the finest tea and coffee in the world. Other industries include sugar, fishing and flowers for export. Rwanda has been known for the wrong reasons in recent decades with the terrible atrocities associated with the 1994 genocide. Since then the country is back on the road to recovery and still provides a safe haven for the mountain gorillas

Hi Vince and the rest of the TWIV-cast!
You might have come across this news already, but it would be interesting to hear the TWIV gang's take on this study done by Fouchier's group from the Netherlands.
Thanks and have a Happy Thanksgiving!
Jeremy Luban writes:
Hey Vincent,
Thought you might want to know about Uta von Schwedler (?TWiV). She was a posdoc with Didier Trono in San Diego, then with Wes Sundquist in Salt Lake. The she worked with ex-Columbian Ila Singh. She has some very important papers in our field, that you might call "classics". I refer to them again and again. Papers defining the Vif phenotype and HIV-1 CA structure/function/ESCRT.
I knew Uta well from Cold Spring Harbor. She attended frequently. She once took my daughter Maria swimming at CSH. Showed the picture to my Maria, who remembered her. Maria pointed out something ridiculous that I am embarrassed to say I never noticed: UTA lived in UTAh!!!!
Wes Sundquist writes:
Jeremy – thank you very much for compiling that information and her papers and passing it along. It was a very thoughtful thing to do. As you say, Uta had a major impact on our field, and touched many people in addition to her scientific contributions.
Vince – if you are interested in any additional information on Uta please let us know. A facebook page has been set up in her honor and it contains a lot of information and memories, from virologist and also from her many friends outside of science. The URL is: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Uta-von-Schwedlers-Memorial-Page/219993061394704?sk=wall. This past summer one of Uta's papers was selected as one of the thirty most influential papers in the thirty years of HIV research. I was asked to write a commentary on it, which is now out and now includes a dedication to Uta (http://www.hivvaccineenterprise.org/hive/feature/591 – 2003 paper). The selection occurred this past summer, and I'm pleased that Uta knew about the selection and saw the commentary before she passed away.
I'm also cc'ing this message to Almut and Nils because I've been telling Uta's family how many virologists have contacted me to express their shock, condolences and memories of Uta, and I thought they might want to see a particularly good example of this. Feel free to pass this along to other family members that you think would be interested.
You're right Jeremy – UTA did live in UTAh. She would also sometimes take the light rail or bus systems, which are run here by the Utah Transit Authority (UTA – seehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utah_Transit_Authority). It used to amuse us that over the years we'd sometimes see her sitting at a bus stop bench labeled "UTA" or see billboards that said things like "Go UTA"!

I writing to tell you how thankful I am, for the work you are doing with your brilliant podcasts.
I'm a bachelor in biochemistry, soon to start in the molecular micro biology masters program. I would like to share with you the last 4 years of my life. In late august 2007 I was travelling in S.E. Asia during my summer vacation from university. I had an amazing time in places like Indonesia (Sumatra) and Malaysia (Penang). Unfortunately i caught a tropical virus along the road, namely Chikungunya. I´m sure you are familiar with this virus.
In rare cases the virus gives you chronically joint pains. I´m one of these rare cases. Over the years, I have consulted numerous different doctors. Recently I consulted an anesthesiologist who provided me with just the right painkiller. (From what I´m told, treatment is basically a "hit-or-miss" approach) My life was changed again. Now I'm able to use my body to all the things I love. First thing I did, was to walk. Just walk. Over the past 4 weeks I have walked more than 200 miles. It´s hard to describe how joyful I am, just being able to walk without feeling intense pain.
For every minute I walked, I was listening to your podcasts. They really helped me getting my fascination for microbiology back. In four years, you forget a lot. Your passion, your drive. It takes a serious blow. You have helped me find this long lost companion. And for this, I am very grateful! So I´m sending you my deepest thanks!
I hope you will keep up the good work! For my part, I´m looking forward to the next many miles in your company.
PS. Did you ever do a part about Chikungunya?

I am Danielle from the University of California Santa Cruz (an undergrad majoring in Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology/ Bioinformatics) and I was going through your archives and listened to an episode where it was mentioned that an app of some sort of your podcast/blog would be useful. I just wanted to let you guys know that I actually found out about you guys by looking for a microbiology type app and found one that featured content from your blog as well as a few others. Unfortunately a review of this app said it was completely useless/broken and it costs $4.99 (so you guys should totally make you own someday). However, I love to listen to podcasts as I do lab work, so I subscribed to your podcast with my google reader and now I can listen to your podcast on my android phone with ear buds while I'm running around doing whatever. This also works with the iPad and I would imagine it would work with an android tablet and iPhone as well! So until you convince some computer science grad or undergrad to make an app for you guys you could suggest followers subscribe with google reader as a substitute app.
On another note, I want to thank you guys for doing this podcast! As an undergrad I'm not really sure what I want to do post-graduation and I've always been interested in virology. My college has Phil Berman (he worked on one of the HIV vaccines) teaching vaccine related classes we don't really have a virology department and I wasn't that sure what a virology lab would really do or look like. However, because of your podcast I'm pretty sold on doing something virus related in the future.
Chris C responds:
The app does work fine on all iDevices and Android phones as I have it installed on the Samsung Galaxy S, iPod Touch, iPhone 3Gs, iPhone 4, iPad and iPad 2, the only catch is that you have to be connected to 3G or the internet for it to stream or download the latest episodes. Once episodes are downloaded it can be used offline to play the episodes.
I suspect this user downloaded the app and then tried to use it when he/she wasn't connected to the internet. I have tried to respond to this person using the comment review fields in the iTunes store but my responses have never been published, I believe because I am the content creator.
Unfortunately, no third party has written a new review in iTunes since April to counter the latest comment.
We have sold over 2,000 MicrobeWorld apps so far and this has been the only negative review to date. We did have one bug uncovered when we launched the Android version in December but we responded quickly with a fix and the reviewer updated his comment for us in the Android Market Place.
If you do decide on purchasing the iPhone/iPad version, please let me know how your experience is and I encourage you to write a review.

Hi Prof Racaniello
I'm delighted to hear that someone of your calibre has jointed the CFIDS Scientific Advisory Board; CFS research needs more high-grade input. I'm also glad you met some patients and discovered that most of us are reasonable people trying to cope with a very difficult disease (and usually our illnesses kicked off after an infectious episode).
I've enjoyed your podcasts on XMRV and am sorry about the amount of flak that appeared on your site. A tiny but vocal and vitriolic minority of patients give the rest of us a bad name. Yes, we try to argue with them on forums but you can only be torched so many times before you realise it's not only deeply unpleasant but also pointless.
Anyway, thank you for your commitment to trying to solve CFS - it is appreciated

[first part read on TWiP]
Now about TWIV…can you cover Herpes B? Actually knew a patient who sustained a bite from an infected monkey quite a few years ago. The patient was a Vet and was treated with a series of IV Acyclovir infusions. She was still living as of a couple years ago when the doc who treated her lost track of her, but it was probable that she is still OK. The treatment was experimental then.
Also got a huge kick out of your comments about DA Henderson's remark about polio vaccine. I had the pleasure of meeting him a when he came to the College of Public Health at the University of South Florida to speak about WMDs. We spoke about vaccine preventable diseases and the growing disconnect with those who are anti vac "whackaloons"….Since I was involved with outbreaks of assorted diseases, including measles, we had quite a discussion. So many docs today have no idea of what the rash illnesses look like, and there is pressure for the newest grads to adopt CAM. It is of great concern. My mother in law had polio when she was a young mother. She suffers from post polio syndrome now.
I absolutely love your podcasts. Thank you for all your hard work…Between your podcasts and ID doc, Mark Crislip's (Quackcast, Puscast and Persiflager's Compendium of Infectious Diseases) http://moremark.squarespace.com/ I am in "hog heaven"…tapeworm free.

For your first night in Delhi, take the afternoon to lunch and to explore the grand domed tombs of the Lodi Gardens. Stay nearby, at The Claridges. This grand hotel serves delicious baltis and butter chicken at its Dhaba restaurant. In the British-built New Delhi you'll visit grand Presidential buildings. In the morning, weave through the street life to the Jama Masjid - the largest mosque in India - and get gloriously lost in the teeming bazaars.
Arrive in Agra, but delay your first sight of the Taj Mahal. First visit the blistering red Agra Fort, a walled city and royal residence crammed with carvings and white marble. Then get to know the riverside city by touring with local guides. In the evening, arrive at the Mehtab Bagh, the Moonlight Garden, which offers the best distant view of the Taj Mahal, suffused in the sunset light. The following day at sunrise, arrive at the Taj Mahal again for a farewell before the drive to Jaipur.
Before entering Jaipur, stop at the abandoned city of Fatehpur Sikri, left in ruined splendour when its lake ran dry. Then on to the Rajasthan capital. Its streets were painted to welcome a visiting British prince, but it is the red sandstone buildings that truly makes this the pink city. See the Hawa Mahal, the palace of winds, with its façade of 953 windows and the hilltop Amber Fort, guarding the nearby town of Amer. For homebound souvenirs, skim the bazaars for slippers and camel skin.

I think that you need to use a chrono to figure that out. It isn't like a LPR, where typically, you get it flush, and then one or two full turns will work out for you.
Posted 28 July 2012 - 12:22 PM
Okay I found in the manual that it needs to be 2 1/2 turns in from the al the way out.
Posted 28 July 2012 - 12:31 PM
It will give you a general idea of what your pressure will be, but you never really know what your fps is until you hit a chrono..

Optus, six others in mobile alliance
Page Tools
Seven Asia-Pacific mobile phone operators with a combined total of over 56 million subscribers formed an alliance on Wednesday aimed at creating a unified regional network.
The Bridge Mobile Alliance was formed by Bharti of India, Globe Telecom of the Philippines, Maxis of Malaysia, Optus of Australia, Singapore Telecommunications (SingTel), Taiwan Cellular Corp. and Telkomsel of Indonesia.
They will each subscribe for an equal number of shares and hold one permanent board seat in a joint venture called Bridge Mobile Pte. Ltd., which is expected to invest up to $US40 million over three years.
Based in Singapore, it will be the largest mobile joint venture in the Asia-Pacific market and is expected to be operational by the first quarter of 2005, a press statement said.
Other mobile operators as well as strategic partners such as technology and applications vendors will be offered membership in the alliance.
"The region is made up of highly diversified cultures, economies, mobile market maturity and varying degrees of technological development," said SingTel Mobile's chief executive Lim Chuan Poh, chairman of Bridge Mobile.
"As a result, mobile operators in the region are unable to fully capitalise on economies of scale," he said, adding that cross-border connections beyond voice remained poor, and different technical standards could lead to further market fragmentation.
In addition to establishing a regional mobile infrastructure and common service platform, Bridge Mobile will also develop new products and services on a regional basis, the statement from the alliance added.
"The common service platform will enable a seamless delivery of services across the respective mobile operators' network, thereby enabling the operators to better serve their customers even when they are abroad, and they can do so cost-effectively," Lim said.
He said the seven operators had the potential to achieve a combined total of over 300 million subscribers "in the near future".
"Our size will allow us to command significant commercial benefits and economies of scale to the alliance members," Lim added.
Lim told a news conference that Thailand's AIS has indicated its intention to join the alliance and will sign the joint venture agreement at a later date.
AIS is an associate of SingTel, along with Bharti, Globe Telecom, Optus and Telkomsel.
Bridge Mobile is in talks with other operators, but Lim declined to name specific countries.
He said that he expected Bridge Mobile to be "financially positive" within two to three years.
"Bridge will be first of all self-sustaining, meaning that shareholders will not need to invest additional cash, and services rolled out should be cash-flow positive," he said.
Lim said alliance subscribers using pre-paid cards will be able to top up their cards when traveling to a country with an alliance member.

The incident was comical but
illustrative. Big cable companies
monopolize pay TV service within their
footprints because they bundle it with the
fastest broadband available in most areas.
They have the fastest broadband available
in most areas because phone companies—
make that Verizon—laid fiber just long
enough to bring cable operators to the
negotiating table. So cable companies
rule in their respective service areas,

I love Black Knight but why do Butter London, who imply they are a British company, not sure if they are or but but I always thought they were, not release polishes in the UK and their Facebook and Twitter offers are always US only. It bugs me thats all, I like their stuff! Rant over!ReplyDelete
They already released Fairy Lights - I've seen blog posts with it from winter 2009 and 2010. I bought it during the summer from Zappos.com, in fact. It's a fantastic pink chrome, so I'm glad it's back!ReplyDelete
So, Tart With a Heart and The Black Night are GORGEOUS! So getting those! :)ReplyDelete

Those are really pretty! I'm really going to have to pay more attention to Butter London.ReplyDelete
The Black Knight looks absolutely gorgeous. Fairy lights looks super pretty, too. Is it me or does Tart With A Heart look somewhat similar to OPI Teenage Dream?ReplyDelete
Scratch what I said about Fairy Lights. It's pink, I hate pink nail polish. I thought it was going to be more purple. Swatches online show it's a lot more pink. It's just not my color :/ReplyDelete
But thanks for showing us this!
Feel free to comment or just say hello! While I don't always have time to respond to each comment, I do read and appreciate all of them.

Combine 2d and 3d plots that has different ranges
Hi All,
Does anybody help me to plot one 3D and one 2D plots to a same column.
I tried GraphicsArray but the ranges of one is two orders of magnitude bigg=
er than the other plot so the smaller one looks like a point.
How can I plot them together but at the same size also ?
Many Thanks


text: I'm an adult skater with a few years experience and I feel generally comfortable on skates. I've noticed that I'm quite slow and I often feel like I should risk more and just go for it. Some elements just don't work slowly, like you can't stand still on a bicycle. I think part of the problem is that I don't feel confident enough about braking and if I don't feel like I could stop quickly than I'm wary of gaining more speed. I envy people who can do hockey stops, showering snow all over the place I can only do snowplow and t-stops, but not effectively enough. I feel like I will just dig the blades into the ice and fall nastily when braking at high speed. Do you have any tips how to get faster and how to control that speed?

Neutrogena's Skin ID: A Great Way to Help Your AcneMonday, June 16, 2008
Acne can be frustrating, particularly when all the treatments you try don't seem to work. Some products don't work for you, some might work but can be so drying that you feel as though your skin is peeling off..... I could go on and on.
A new revolution in Acne care is coming! Neutrogena has developed Skin ID, a very personalized way to treat acne. You simply go to the website and answer a variety of questions including where your face is rough, what type of acne you suffer from and even how much sleep you get each night. At the end you get a personalized regimen just for you!
Why try yet another acne product? Because this one works. It's that simple.
They truly did the "gold standard" medical testing to prove it, which is a "randomized, double-blind trial." That means they randomly assigned patients to either the thing they are interested in (the Skin ID collection), or a placebo (in this case there are 2 groups they compared to, ProActiv and a Placebo that had no active ingredients). The patients were given the products to use in unmarked containers and then were evaluated at regular intervals by dermatologists. Neither the patients or the researchers/dermatologists knew what each patient was on (that's the double blind part). Patients were scored based on things like "Reduction in Total Acne" and "Severity of Emerging Pimples." You can see the results graphs, though I'm a bit curious about all of their other results.
It does seem that Skin ID work!
An intro Skin ID kit (with 3 products that fit your profile) is only $39.95, quite a bit cheaper than a trip to the dermatologist. Consider trying it out!

This sounds like a great idea!! About time someone came up with it..lolReplyDelete
I love comments! Please ask away, provide info on how you liked something, etc. Note that spam, comments with random links (which I count as spam), anything not in english (again, spam) and comments that are completely unrelated to anything will all be deleted.

Aloha TWIMsters;
I must start by saying that I love your podcasts and have been listening since TWIV day 1 (really) and thank you so much for providing such and informative and entertaining discussion on the issues related to microbes. I just saw this article, A Case Study of Gut Fermentation Syndrome (Auto-Brewery) with Saccharomyces cerevisiae as the Causative Organism, referred to in the news and had to send it to you for comment. The authors conclude with a message to health care workers that treat patients for alcohol intoxication that claim to not have been drinking and how this condition can have serious social costs if misdiagnosed. I wonder if this condition is more prevalent than we realize due to the increase in a diets high in sugar and carbohydrates as well as the use of antibiotics that disrupt the gut biome, which allows the overgrowth of this commensal yeast. I guess it gives new meaning to being addicted to carbs :)

Hello TWIM,
the brain microbiome paper you discussed seems to have been largely ignored by the press. However, Mark Pallen sent you an open reply where he was dismissive of the claims of the paper, comparing it to elusive XMRV and arsenic life. He also says effectively the authors didn't do their homework.
If you can't find his letter in your mail here is the link:
I am writing because I strongly disagree with Pallen's opinion and would like to see your opinon on Pallen's letter. Indeed, I think the authors went to great lengths to get the result using different methods. And they have cultured the critters, read the part where they inoculated the mice with heated and non-heated brain tissue.The only way this could not quite be what it seems is that the bacteria are not in full bloom but dormant, like M. tuberculosis sleeping in macrophages. Low transcriptional activity they have found actually supports this hypothesis.
I'm a former biocurator who only did a bit of library work on M. tuberculosis, so that paper rang a bell with me.
Many thanks for your work and for bringing up that paper which probably has sparked some frantic activity by now I'd guess...
Regards, (and check the citation below)

Dear Vincent & Michael,
In TWIM 64 the episode on URI & UTI you and the guests get on the subject of agriculture and antibiotic resistance in microbes around 56 minutes into the video. Michael mentioned that manure is suppose to be heated before application to fields and indicated its not and if was it wouldn't be sufficient to destroy DNA which I'm assuming he meant plasmids containing resistance genes. I know it wasn't the focus of the show and time didn't need to be devoted to fully discussing the roles of animal agriculture and manure in microbial resistance but I feel there may be some clarification needed. Manure lagoons were discussed in which case we are talking liquid manure and not something you'd apply to land growing crops for human consumption. I'm sure it's legal in the case of a sufficient waiting period from application to planting although I'm not very versed in the exact specifications as I'm a dairy farmer not a vegetable grower. By heating I think Michael was referring to composting of manure. This is a process that in the case of organic farming and I'd assume conventional as well is supposed to be carried out with strict controls involving temperature measurements and records along with scheduled aeration and the like to make a product allowed for use in human consumption crops. There is a lot of interesting research out there on prevalence of antibiotic resistant genes on farms, in manure, in soils on farms, and comparisons of different operations. This could be a possible future episode for you in an area you usually only dabble in on occasion, that being agriculture. Here are some links to papers I could find on the subject I've found interesting:
I could go on for hours about this subject and its implications for agriculture and society as a whole but I need to get to the farm milking. Have a great day.

Aloha TWIMsters,
Just wanted to thank you for all the work you do bringing the world of microbes to the masses ;)
As a student in Microbiology, I listen to all the TWIx podcasts and enjoy them all :) Last year, I wrote a paper on the gut microbiome and came across a paper that might identify a causal agent in obesity (citation below). I am not sure why it did not get the attention (both media and scientific) that the paper you discussed this week since it seemed to be similar in focus. It seems that inflammation plays an important part in obesity and the presence of the bacterial toxin might be the culprit. The researchers concluded that endotoxin-induced inflammation might have a pivotal role in obesity (as induced by the bacteria E. cloacae strain B29). The man in this study lost weight when switched to a whole grain diet with probiotics and the bacterial strain was undetected. I wonder if the paper you presented obtained a similar result in mice fed a low fat diet where the gut microbiome contained a healthy diversity. There have been many studies that show a diet high in fat and sugar contributes to obesity, but could it also maintain an unhealthy gut microbe that could produce an endotoxin that stimulates inflammation? In the study you mentioned that the diet was important in maintaining a healthy gut diversity. I guess this means that the use of any prebiotic for weight loss would be meaningless if not accompanied by a low fat diet? How does this explain those that are thin and eat an unhealthy / fast food diet? I know this is a complex issue but I can't help but think of the effect of an endotoxin producer and resulting inflammation as a likely culprit in obesity. I feel for those that have been frustrated by the "calories in = calories out" statement .. these studies show that it is not that simple.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
I would say you did get lucky to find two boats that you can combine to get one good one. Too bad the new one you bought had a broken rudder, if it was good I would have definitely made you an offer on one. Also If you lived around here, I may have bought the trailer The interior looks like its in pretty good shape on the second one you bought. You are going to be happy when you get it all up and sailing. Just to give you some ideas or whatever else, you can check out this video I took yesterday of mine here... YouTube - Touring SV Tropic Spirit I went to do some cleaning and rearranging things. I think she is a pretty girl now and when I put in the tropical vinyl wallpaper on the galley walls next week, its going to look really nice! You see I am into that classy stained wood yacht look which is why when I replace my hatch covers in a couple weeks, I am going to make it out of wood instead of smoked plexi glass. It takes more maintenance but with a little effort I think it just looks so much classier.
After I get my new rudder, I am going to be getting really fancy within the next few months, kind of like how custom auto fans get into fixing up their cars. Thats how I am getting with my sailboat which is turning quickly into a mini yacht and a new hobby. I will be putting in a small LCD TV, some LED rope lights in the cabin interior, a couple flags on the shrouds, a small fridge and other things such as tech gadgets. When this is all done, I am posting another video and I hope when people watch it and board her they will get that 'wow' factor.
SUDDENLY, a wild plan B appears!
How my plan had an uncontrolled jibe.
The whole upper hull on my $200 boat is basically crap, and there is water getting into the forward part of the keel too I found, not just the rear where it cracked. Plus serious (though not illegal) complications came up that would have made this boat nearly impossibly to title now.
Luckily the situation has been remedied, I simply lifted up the mast and installed a new boat:
22' O'Day 22 Sailboat and Trailer T158454 | eBay
Whats the chances of me buying a boat with nothing but good standing rigging, rudder and mast, and then finding an identical boat a few hours away in great shape needing a rudder, standing rigging and a mast.
Apparently this boat had its mast and its rudder both made into a 2 piece version and was dumped on a local charity. I feel I could have gotten it for less if I let them re-list it, but I wanted it, I didn't want any competition, and with the parts combined that means I'll be sailing the end of next week for $1150 plus the fuel expended getting both boats.
When I sell off which ever trailer I like the least and take the 600 lbs of lead in the keel of this boat to a scrap place, that will likely go way down.
The old boat is getting chopped up, its positively trashed after deeper inspection on both upper hull, interior and lower hull. I'll be keeping every last fitting on it, and eventually transferring some of the fancy stuff like that rear mounted traveler to the new boat.
This one has a forward hatch too, which I think is critical with the lack of opening windows. O and sails, nice to have a sailboat that comes with sails
So I now own 1976 22 class number 2167.
If anyone needs a trailer set up for a 22, as soon as this boat is made no more, one will be available, dunno what else will be for sale.
|SG40 you don't have to have an OEM rudder.. Most rudders from boats about the same size would work. Many times they show up on Ebay for example.
|I tell you, I really wish I could find an Oday 22 like that which someone is selling for parts so I can get a rudder back on my boat. I guess I will have to just buy a new rudder at this point, seems kind of pricey after just paying so much for motor servicing a couple months ago. Going on a month since I even SEEN my boat now. If I could find someone in the N.O. area who could make a nice rudder at a reasonable price, I would jump on it in a sec.
Haven't had time to view all the links yet but otherwise I read everything.
EDIT: I should mention my concern about the foot of the mast coming out was because unlike most I have seen these slots are flat instead of downward curved so the downward force has to generate enough friction on those 2 pins sticking out either side to prevent the whole mast popping out towards the rear. All the new ones I've seen are downward sloped or L shaped to prevent this.
This picture is helpful and shows a bit of just what is right and wrong: mast step | Flickr - Photo Sharing!
The mast step has a cut out channel in it for what I will call 'Frankenstein bolts' that stick out and fit into the channel. You only need to tension your shrouds and stays to pin your mast down.
|so, ARE you reading all the help that's been given?
Added more pics, have several inside and outside pics of the keel damage. Its all in the same chamber of the keel which seems to be divided up. I'm not sure if the lead is in the bottom below that water or in front of the bulkhead you can see in the keel. There was already a 2 or 3 inch hole in the floor towards the rear right where you step down, I simply plopped a 5 or 6 inch hole saw on it and made it a really big hole. That bashed in jagged looking hole in the panel below the white floor (kinda a drainage channel) was already there too. The bottom of the keel still has about an inch of rotten leaves and muck in it, I need to finishing cleaning that out but since it slowly refills with water when it rains I wasn't too concerned about pumping it out again just yet.
No clue what they tried to fill it with yet but its some expanding goop I think that hardened like plastic. I smell total half assery, I'll see when I get it ground down, or maybe ground clear through would be better.
No clue what the 2 odd bits of hardware I took a pic of are from, if anyone knows tell me so I don't pitch them.
Also i'm missing 1 curtain rod and 2 of the little screw on round bits that attach to the bases to hold it on. I wouldn't mind finding replacements that match.
Got a shot of the electrical panel, there's actually a light overhead that I think is fluorescent (or just really long) but i'm not sure.
Also took a pic of the mast step for the hell of it, my mast isnt gold like the boom so I would guess its been replaced though it looks rather like the ones I see in pics for these, this mast step seems a little primitive and unsafe compared to the later ones I've seen. If someone fell hard enough into the base it looks like it would shoot out aft. YAY 1972

A 'Keeping Place' for South Goulburn Island
Apr 30, 2013 , 3:53 PM by Vicki Kerrigan
There are too many negative stories spewing out of remote indigenous communities and I, for one, am tired of it. I know good stuff happens in communities but unfortunately due to various reasons, including cultural differences and distance, we don't find out about the good stuff so we struggle to tell you about it.
So this year I made a promise, every couple of weeks, I want to make a remote connection with someone in an indigenous community. There are heaps of non indigenous people doing great work in communities, but wouldn't it be nice to hear from the locals? From the people who grew up on country, and whose ancestors walked the same earth?
Here's where I ask you for a favour. If you know of something great, something positive, something fun, that is happening in a remote indigenous community can you please let me know about it? I would love to be the conduit to tell the story to the rest of the Top End, or maybe even the world!
Some really inspiring work is being done in the remote community of Warruwi on South Goulburn Island. Warruwi is the main township on South Goulburn Island, about 300km east of Darwin at the eastern base of the Coburg Peninsula.
Recently a group of elders got together and formed a new corporation which they hope will generate new opportunities for their people. Take a listen to the Chair of the Yagbani Aboriginal Corporation, Bunug Galaminda, talk about their plans to establish a trepang business and also to set up a "Keeping Place".

"What I remember most about that first stop was that he asked "Where are you headed." Not "license, registration and proof of insurance, please" ─ but "Where are you headed." ──
Eighteen years ─ nine months ─ sixteen days and one-thousand seconds of riding in cars with nothing but white people ─ and not once had an officer expressed interest in where we were heading.
While I did not know it at the time, growing up one of the benefits of my honorary white and suburban privilege was the ability to gather, congregate and move aimlessly through public spaces without attention or purpose… Perhaps that's why for years after leaving home I carried an old family picture, tucked directly behind my driver's license, where the latter went the former followed, sometimes whispering, and sometimes shouting "I am not the Black Man you think I am. Now please let me pass without delay or further hindrance."

2010 Sea Rays Final Notes/Records
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- The 24th-ranked University of Tennessee track & field teams closed out the 44th edition of the Sea Ray Relays with three baton event victories and nearly added a fourth Saturday on the final day of action at Tom Black Track at LaPorte Stadium.
On senior day for 16 members of the squads, the Vols and Lady Vols pulled off a Big Orange sweep of the 4x800-meter relays, while the UT men won the 4x200m event and would have added the 4x1 title as well if not for an exchange zone violation that resulted in a disqualification.
In the women's 4x8, sophomores Ramzee Fondren and Brittany Sheffey and senior Kimarra McDonald set the table for senior Phoebe Wright, who carried the baton to victory in 8:35.46 after winning the 1500 meters individually on Friday. In the men's race, the Vol lineup of freshman Terrance Livingston, sophomore Emerson Peacock, junior Peter Sigilai and sophomore Joe Franklin covered the distance in 7:28.59 to claim first-place accolades.
The Vols added another win to the list in the next event, knocking out a triumph in the 4x200m relay. Seniors Samdi Fraser and Kyle Stevenson, and sophomore Deaundra Dailey moved the stick around the track in good fashion and allowed senior Evander Wells to close the door on a 1:24.10 piece of work. It marked the eighth time in meet history UT had taken the title in that race.
Earlier, in the 4x100m relay, it appeared the Tennessee lineup of Wells, Stevenson, Fraser and sophomore Desmond Brown had easily won that event. A yellow flag was raised into the air on the third exchange, however, negating what would have been a season-best 39.89 clocking.
"We had a men's 4x1 that was disqualified, but they were definitely under 40 seconds again," UT Director of Track & Field J.J. Clark said. "We had a disqualification, and that's something we'll have to work on. We had a good run in the 4x8 and some good efforts in the DMR. I was very happy with the competitiveness and the focus that our teams displayed on the men's and women's side.
"Our women had a very strong mark in the 4x8, with Phoebe anchoring somewhere around 2:04 or 2:05. It was a very strong mark. Her coming back and almost winning the 4x4 with a 52 split and taking the 1500m with one of the fastest times in the country yesterday, she has my vote for athlete of the meet. The marks she ran in every race were national class efforts and she continues to provide output for us when it's time."
Tennessee narrowly missed adding to its victory haul in two more events. With Wright again anchoring after turns from freshman Martinique Octave, sophomore Ellen Wortham and McDonald, the Lady Vol 4x4 logged a 3:36.34 count and came up second to Illinois (3:35.90) despite Wright's impressive 52-second closing split. The UT men, meanwhile, saw their bid for a win in the distance medley relay fall short despite a 9:45.22 mark from Peacock, junior Alan Bachman, Franklin and Sigilai. Alabama held on for the win in 9:44.32.
"I was very happy with Ellen's efforts with the relays and hurdles," Clark said. "It was just a very good meet, and it all started with them being able to focus on the task at hand despite family being here."
Individually, the Vols got a runner-up effort from Brown, who had an outdoor season-best leap of 23-9 in the long jump, and a third-place showing from senior Matt Maloney in the javelin, where he stretched the tape measure to a season best of 226-11. The men's 4x1500m relay combo of freshman Leoule Degfae, senior Mike Brodsky, redshirt freshman Spenser Tipton and sophomore Scott March grabbed third in 16:26.48, while the 4x4 lineup of senior John Hewitt, Dailey, Bachman and Livingston took sixth in 3:11.08.
"We're glad to have Matt Maloney outdoors," Clark said. "Obviously, there's no javelin indoors. He adds to our point total and depth of our team. We welcome him to our team and are happy to see him throwing at his best."
The Lady Vols added a fourth-place and season-best result of 45.87 in the 4x100m relay and a sixth-place finish in the distance medley relay at 12:02.76. The 4x1 lineup included freshman Ashley Harris, Wortham, Octave and freshman Kia Jackson. The DMR, meanwhile, included sophomores Elizabeth Altizer, Charity Honeycutt and Ramzee Fondren, and senior Michele Levy.
Freshman Aslynn Halvorson added a fourth-place finish in the women's Invitational discus, letting loose a season-best fling of 158-4, and junior Holly Kane took fifth in the women's javelin, uncorking a throw of 135-8. For the UT men, redshirt freshman Daniel Porter snared fifth in the 3000m steeplechase in 9:56.32, while senior Brad Holtz was sixth in the Invitational pole vault with a clearance of 16-10 3/4.
"Overall, all three days, I thought the teams performed well," UT Director of Track & Field J.J. Clark said. "They focused well and had a good meet all around. A lot of running and training was going on, and we had a lot of good performances nationally and from an SEC standpoint and some key victories."
In addition to Brodsky, Fraser, Hewitt, Holtz, Maloney, McDonald, Stevenson, Wells and Wright, the other seniors honored in ceremonies before the day's action included Lady Vols Jackie Areson, Janea Grimes, Chardae Hancock, Michele Levy, Jena' Murphy, and Vols Nathan Grace and Chris Kane.
Wells was voted the Tony Wilson Award winner for men's running events, while unattached competitor Annie Alexander was the women's field event winner. Tamika Robinson of Illinois won the women's running events award, and A.G. Kruger picked up his third men's field award.
"Evander was a slam dunk," Clark said. "I just commend him for the effort he's put in over the last few weeks. He's a hard worker in the classroom, in the weight room and on the track. It's starting to pay off, and I'm happy to see that."
Complete results of Saturday's action are attached and available at http://www.utsports.com/sports/m-track/spec-rel/030509aab.html
The Tennessee men and women will be in action at home again next weekend, as they participate Friday and Saturday in the Volunteer Track Classic, hosted by the Knoxville Track Club. Admission is $4.

A democracy inevitably confronts the issue of handling extremists who employ the media to spread hatred and fear of minorities, those who they seek to demonize, and the unknown in all its manifestations. People in the Czech Republic have been subjected to propaganda from racist political parties which seek to use the presence of a Roma minority as their wedge to secure support from the general populace. A recent poll reveals three fourths of the Czech people support the ban of all parties that use racist slogans in their election campaign. A recent anti-Roma video was used by the National Party in its quest for votes and even included a statement about "the final solution to the Roma question" which could have come from any Nazi statement concerning that group.
Over two-thirds of the population supports the request of the Interior Minister to seek a court order to dissolve the National Party. The Czech Radio has refused to play certain statements by the National Party. A strict adherence to democracy would argue the National Party has a right to be racist. Are there times when society has the right to halt speech? We believe there is a difference between "speech" and "action." Any person has a right to utter words, but no one has the right to instigate violent action against other members of society.

Editor's Note: Whether you're a tourist or an office worker in downtown Chicago, you can get sick of eating at chain restaurants all day. So we've started a series to get you the lowdown on where to find a great and affordable lunch.
If you're visiting Chicago and you're chillin' like a villain in the Loop, sometimes it can be hard to find the more unique lunch places. Fast food restaurants stick out like a sore thumb, with their zany bright colors and familiar logos, but a lot of restaurants blend into the scenery. So if you're not careful, you can walk right by Toni Patisserie and Café and not even know it. And that's what I'm here for—to slap the bad food out of your hands and to deliver the good directly into your face.
That being said, skip the La Boeuf ($8.95). Apparently in typical Dennis Lee fashion, I was a boner and completely forgot to take a picture of it. I'm not even sure how that happened. I'm Asian. I'm required to take pictures of my food, right? But overall it's a forgettable sandwich with roast beef, greens, and horseradish, with one major problem—the rustic baguette it comes on turns into a jaw workout. I promise I'm not being a picky wuss, either, between three people, everyone came to the same conclusion: the bread is a little too chewy for an easy lunch.
There's nothing like a piece of quiche from a bakery. Whenever I make one at home, I inevitably screw it up because apparently drinking whiskey while cooking isn't in the recipe. The quiche Lorraine ($7.95) is a classic; Toni Patisserie fills it full of bacon, onion, and a touch of gruyere. It's heavy on the bacon and even heavier on the onion, whose moisture renders the egg custard a little jigglier than most, almost like silken tofu. Personally, I like my quiche custard a touch thicker.
The salade Nicoise ($11.95) is a bevy (yes, I just said bevy) of tuna blended with briny capers, greens lightly dressed in a dijon vinaigrette, haricot verts (aka green beans), tart olives, fingerling potatoes, a hard-boiled egg, and tomatoes. It comes more or less disassembled, but in a combined bite, everything comes together in a bright blended harmony. The picture might make the tuna look a bit dry, but I promise the juicy capers bring the moisture right back.
If there was an Abercrombie and Fitch catalog of food, the Croque Monsieur ($9.95) would be like that one shirtless guy running along the beach with his hair tossed back in the wind. Wait, aren't all the guys in those catalogs are shirtless? I'm terrible at similes. What I'm trying to say is that it's a handsome sandwich. Cut in half with strings of hot melted cheese reaching across the plate, it's definitely a looker. It's not heavy handed with the ham, giving it a nice balance of salt and meat, and the bechamel sauce is like a silky alternative to mayo. Oddly enough, the best part of the sandwich is the crust; it's crisp, toasted, and delicately crunchy without being stale.
Toni Patisserie is located in a convenient place for visitors and Loop worker bees, right off Michigan Avenue. If you're out screwing around town for a while, it's a good choice for a French-style lunch. And if you just want a snack, they've got baked goods like macarons and pastries to keep you happy through any busy day.
