Chapter 17
The molecular biology revolution started with the discovery of restriction endonucleases
-Enzymes that cleave DNA at specific sites
These enzymes are significant in two ways
1. Allow a form of physical mapping that was previously impossible
2. Allow the creation of recombinant DNA molecules (from two different sources)
Restriction enzymes recognize DNA sequences termed restriction sites
There are two types of restriction enzymes:
-Type I = Cut near the restriction site
-Rarely used in DNA manipulation
-Type II = Cut at the restriction site
-The sites are palindromes
-Both strands have same sequence when read 5' to 3'
Type II enzymes produce staggered cuts that generate "sticky ends"
-Overhanging complementary ends
Therefore, fragments cut by the same enzyme can be paired
DNA ligase can join the two fragments forming a stable DNA molecule
A technique used to separate DNA fragments by size
The gel (agarose or polyacrylamide) is subjected to an electrical field
The DNA, which is negatively-charged, migrates towards the positive pole
-The larger the DNA fragment, the slower it will move through the gel matrix
DNA is visualized using fluorescent dyes
Transformation is the introduction of DNA from an outside source into a cell
Natural transformation occurs in many species
-However, not in E. coli, which is used routinely in molecular biology labs
-Artificial transformation techniques have been developed to introduce foreign DNA into it
A clone refers to a genetically identical copy
Molecular cloning is the isolation of a specific DNA sequence (usually protein-encoding)
-Sometimes called gene cloning
The most flexible and common host for cloning is E. coli
Propagation of DNA in a host cell requires a vector
Plasmids are small, circular extrachromosomal DNA molecules
-Used for cloning small pieces of DNA
-Have three important components
1.Origin of replication
2.Selectable marker
3.Multiple cloning site (MCS)
Phage vectors are modified bacterial viruses
-Most based on phage lambda (l) of E. coli
-Used to clone inserts up to 40 Kbp
-Have two features not shared with plasmid vectors
-They kill their host cells
-They have linear genomes
-Middle replaced with inserted DNA
Artificial chromosomes
-Used to clone very large DNA fragments
-Bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs)
-Yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs)
A collection of DNA fragments from a specific source that has been inserted into host cells
A genomic library represents the entire genome
A cDNA library represents only the expressed part of the genome
-Complementary DNA (cDNA) is synthesized from isolated mRNA using the enzyme reverse transcriptase
Molecular hybridization is a technique used to identify specific DNAs in complex mixtures
-A known single-stranded DNA or RNA is labeled
-It is then used as a probe to identify its complement via specific base-pairing
-Also termed annealing
Molecular hybridizationis the most common way of identifying a clone in a DNA library
-This process involves three steps:
1. Plating the library
2. Replicating the library
3. Screening the library
Restriction maps
-Molecular biologists need maps to analyze and compare cloned DNAs
-The first maps were restriction maps
-Initially, they were created by enzyme digestion & analysis of resulting patterns
-Many are now generated by computer searches for cleavage sites
Southern blotting
-A sample DNA is digested by restriction enzymes & separated by gel electrophoresis
-Gel is transferred ("blotted") onto a nitrocellulose filter
-Then hybridized with a cloned, radioactively-labeled DNA probe
-Complementary sequences are revealed by autoradiography
Northern blotting
-mRNA is electrophoresed and then blotted onto the filter
Western blotting
-Proteins are electrophoresed and then blotted onto the filter
-Detection requires an antibody that can bind to one protein
RFLP analysis
-Restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) are generated by point mutations or sequence duplications
-These fragments are often not identical in different individuals
-Can be detected by Southern blotting
DNA fingerprinting
-An identification technique used to detect differences in the DNA of individuals
-Makes use of a variety of molecular procedures, including RFLP analysis
-First used in a US criminal trial in 1987
-Tommie Lee Andrews was found guilty of rape
DNA sequencing
-A set of nested fragments is generated
-End with known base
-Separated by high-resolution gel electrophoresis, resulting in a "ladder"
-Sequence is read from the bottom up
DNA sequencing
-The enzymatic method was developed by Frederick Sanger
-Dideoxynucleotides are used as chain terminators in DNA synthesis reactions
DNA sequencing
-The enzymatic technique is powerful but is labor intensive and time-consuming
-The development of automated techniques made sequencing faster and more practical
-Fluorescent dyes are used instead of radioactive labels
-Reaction is done in one tube
-Data are assembled by a computer
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
-Developed by Kary Mullis
-Allows the amplification of a small DNA fragment using primers that flank the region
-Each PCR cycle involves three steps:
1. Denaturation (high temperature)
2. Annealing of primers (low temperature)
3. DNA synthesis (intermediate temperature)
-Taq polymerase
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
-Has revolutionized science and medicine because it allows the investigation of minute samples of DNA
-Detection of genetic defects in embryos
-Analysis of mitochondrial DNA from early human species
Yeast two-hybrid system
-Used to study protein-protein interactions
-Gal4 is a transcriptional activator with a modular structure
-The Gal4 gene is split into two vectors
-Bait vector: has DNA-binding domain
-Prey vector: has transcription-activating domain
-Neither of these alone can activate transcription
Yeast two-hybrid system
-When other genes are inserted into these vectors, they produce fusion proteins
-Contain part of Gal4 and the protein of interest
-If the proteins being tested interact, Gal4 function will be restored
-A reporter gene will be expressed
-Detected by an enzyme assay
Has generated excitement and controversy
Expression vectors contain the sequences necessary to express inserted DNA in a specific cell type
Transgenic animals contain genes that have been inserted without the use of conventional breeding
In vitro mutagenesis
-Ability to create mutations at any site in a cloned gene
-Has been used to produce knockout mice, in which a known gene is inactivated
-The effect of loss of this function is then assessed on the entire organism
-An example of reverse genetics
Human proteins
-Medically important proteins can be produced in bacteria
-Human insulin
-Atrial peptides
-Tissue plasminogen activator
-Human growth hormone
-Subunit vaccines: Genes encoding a part of the protein coat are spliced into a fragment of the vaccinia (cowpox) genome
-DNA vaccines: Depend on the cellular immune response (not antibodies)
Gene therapy
-Adding a functional copy of a gene to correct a hereditary disorder
-Severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCID) illustrates both the potential and the problems
-Successful at first, but then patients developed a rare leukemia
Ti (tumor-inducing)plasmid is the most used vector for plant genetic engineering
-Obtained from Agrobacterium tumefaciens, which normally infects broadleaf plants
-However, bacterium does not infect cereals such as corn, rice and wheat
Gene guns
-Uses bombardment with tiny gold particles coated with DNA
-Possible for any species
-However, the copy number of inserted genes cannot be controlled
Herbicide resistance
-Broadleaf plants have been engineered to be resistant to the herbicide glyphosate
-This allows for no-till planting
Pest resistance
-Insecticidal proteins have been transferred into crop plants to make them pest-resistant
-Bt toxin from Bacillus thuringiensis
Golden rice
-Rice that has been genetically modified to produce b-carotene (provitamin A)
-Converted in the body to vitamin A
Adoption of genetically modified (GM) crops has been resisted in some areas because of questions about:
-Crop safety for human consumption
-Movement of genes into wild relatives
-Loss of biodiversity
-Transgenic plants are used to produce pharmaceuticals
-Human serum albumin
-Recombinant subunit vaccines
-Against Norwalk and rabies viruses
-Recombinant monoclonal antibodies
-Against tooth decay-causing bacteria
Transgenic animal technology has not been as successful as that in plants
-One interesting example is the EnviroPig
-Engineered to carry the gene for the enzyme phytase
-Breaks down phosphorus in feed
-Reduces excretion of harmful phosphates in the environment

GM's Fuel-Economy Play Includes Building More Small Engines
General Motors is revamping three plants where it builds small four-cylinder engines. The car maker says it will spend $163.2-million to improve its factories in Flint and Bay City, Mich., and in Defiance, Ohio, to support the ramping up of engine production for the Chevrolet Volt hybrid, Cruze compact sedan and another planned small car from Chevrolet.
The company is making the move in anticipation of strong demand for the Volt, Cruze and other economy cars as consumers focus more on fuel efficiency. GM's overall strategy, which includes attempts to field vehicles with the highest fuel economy ratings in their segments, is also a stark contrast from several years ago when the company was betting its future on the notion that consumers wouldn' t give up their large, gas-guzzling SUVs.

With the recent debut of the latest installment in the James Bond movie franchise, Spectre, we've been reminded of one of 007's greatest qualities—namely, that he's better traveled than most people on the planet (okay, he's a fictional character, but the point still stands).
In fact, in his 50 years of service, Bond has visited nearly 50 countries, while most of the films feature upwards of six distinct locales. Want to globe-trot like James Bond? Simply jet-set to any of these stellar destinations.
The bustling city has been featured in several Bond films, including You Only Live Once, Die Another Day, and The Man with the Golden Gun, which includes scenes shot in the famous Peninsula Hotel. Considered one of the world's best hotels, the Peninsula boasts a Rolls Royce fleet, a rooftop helipad, marble baths, exceptional service, and (fittingly, for Bond fans) traditional British tea.
In the opening of Skyfall, Bond finds himself in search of a stolen hard drive in the city of Istanbul. He then chases an assailant through Eminonu Square, one of the oldest in the city (Bond also visits Istanbul in From Russia with Love and The World is Not Enough). To make your visit as luxurious as Bond's would have been (had he not been dodging would-be assassins and chasing down bad guys), book a stay at the lavish Shangri-La Bosphorous, which promises an in-room espresso machine, 300-count linens, heated bathroom floors, a separate shower and soaking tub, and complimentary high-speed WiFi.
The whole country makes the list on account of its significance to the Bond franchise. Not only was nearly all of the original James Bond movie, Dr. No, filmed on the island, but it's also the site of the emergence of Honey Ryder (the first Bond girl, played by Ursula Andress). The country is also heavily featured in Live and Let Die. To top it all off, Goldeneye, Jamaica is the former home of the late Ian Fleming, the creator of the James Bond franchise. His house has now been incorporated into a luxury boutique hotel, which keeps Fleming's writing desk and typewriter on display.
Dubbed "James Bond Island" by 007 fans, this island in Thailand had its moment in the spotlight in The Man with the Golden Gun. Located within the Ao Phang Nga national park, it makes for a stunning destination for nature lovers and film buffs alike. Head to any of the cheap hotels in nearby Phuket after your day of adventure.
No list of this kind would be complete without mention of 007's headquarters. Home to M16 and featured in nearly every film in the Bond franchise, London is hands down Bond's most frequented destination. While M16 has moved from London office buildings to Whitehall's Old War Office, the Barbican, and its eventual headquarters on the Thames, London will forever remain Bond's home.
Spectre marks the second time Bond has found himself in Mexico. The first time around, in License to Kill, Bond checked in at the Grand Hotel Ciudad de Mexico. This time, 007 is amongst the crowds during the Day of the Dead parade celebration in Mexico City's Zocalo square. Mexico City is one of the most populated cities in the world, so you'll have no shortage of sightseeing opportunities at any time of year.
The canals and gondolas of Venice make for frequented terrain for the Bond franchise, with spots in From Russia with Love, Moonraker, and Casino Royale. Stroll the Piazza San Marco and ogle the Cipriani Hotel, where James Bond is seen mooring his yacht in Casino Royale (It's also reportedly where Daniel Craig himself stayed during filming).
While you may not be landing on a helipad or saving the world from nuclear meltdown, you can still travel the world in style at any of these 007 locations.

Ever a city of cultural convergence and commerce, modern Istanbul's 11 to 12 million annual international visitors can find themselves beckoned into shops and restaurants in their native tongues. There are a great many things to see in Turkey, but for the traveler looking for a truly unique experience, the Grand Bazaar is a feast for the senses. Constructed in the 1450's following the Ottoman conquest of Constantinople, the Grand Bazaar is alive with color, smells, and sounds, a living breathing beast complete with over 5,000 shops. the market is open from 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., Monday through Saturday, with closures on Sundays and bank holidays. Here are some tips having an optimal shopping experience in the Grand Bazaar, so grab some Turkish Lira (currently 0.36 to the US dollar) and hit the market where the wandering visitor can find everything from fortune telling rabbits, to vibrant textiles, rich spices, and much more.
If you're looking for a place to stay in the middle of it all, at Niles Hotel Istanbul – Special Class, the rooms have Ottoman style décor, and air conditioning or the DoubleTree by Hilton Istanbul Old Town for modern chic with affordable prices.
Upon first entering the Grand Bazaar, expect to immediately see a dozen things you want to buy. It is a rookie mistake to commit to the first eye catching object, so try to refrain from buying the first thing you see. Instead, spend some time walking around and observing many shops (with a smartphone, it's easy to pin the location to return later) to get an idea of price range and item selection. With some 5,000 shops stretching 60 streets, there is a lot to see. The high domed Cevâhir Bedesten at the market's center was originally constructed by Sultan Mehmet II as a dedicated area for the trade of textiles. The building still stands, and continues to house some of the market's most precious objects and antiques. There's much to see, so consider staying at the Barcelo Saray Hotel for easy return trips.
Many shopkeepers will offer çay, or tea, to browsing patrons. To refuse is rude, though acceptance at some 16 shops might very well be a bit much. To avoid coming out of an afternoon feeling like a water balloon, politely accept and sip, accepting does not commit the shopper to making a purchase.
Many Americans are inexperienced with haggling or bargaining, but it is typical in a great many countries around the world. It is common to feel uncomfortable or embarrassed when starting out, but trust us, it can be quite fun and exhilarating once you've had some practice and walk out of a transaction with a great price! Vendors will often intentionally inflate prices because they 1) expect patrons to bargain, and 2) generally charge more to tourists. To get a feel for fair prices and how to bargain, it can help to try to inconspicuously observe locals haggling. If the price is wrong, one might try thanking the vendor and moving to leave the shop, at which point, the vendor may counter by asking what price you want. Alternatively, the vendor may walk away, but if you refuse to cave, and the last price was not too far off from reasonable, they may return to resume haggling. It can also be helpful to find two vendors with the same item and play them off one another. While you should be confident and firm while bargaining, keep your tone light and friendly. The business owners often have families to support, so don't be rude.
When a particular item catches your eye, avoid showing too much interest or enthusiasm, especially if that item is rare as the shop owner will know they have the upper hand as they know you cannot find another vendor with a potentially better price and will stay firm.
If haggling still feels uncomfortable, there will be shops with fixed sticker prices, but expect to pay much more at such establishments.
No trip to the Grand Bazaar would be complete without shopping for a Turkish carpet. However, this can be quite an expensive process, and it is very difficult to know the value of the prospects. If you want to be safe, try a trusted shop, as many carpets are now manufactured in China and it can be difficult to tell—there is a list of trusted shops here (though it is certainly worth while to visit small shops in the Bazaar). There is a range of materials, like silk or wool; designs, which are specific to the different cultures who hand-make the rugs (the more intricate the pattern, the more expensive); dyes, natural and chemical (natural dyes are less subject to fading, and do so more gracefully than chemical dyes); number of knots per square meter (the more knots, the better made, the more expensive); sizes (prayer rug sized to large).
Visit several carpet shops, where the vendors will treat you to a show of their wares (this can take hours). Do not buy on the first day, but rather, return to your favorite shop after having visited several, getting a sense for colors, patterns, and prices. Always buy handmade rugs. Again, definitely haggle for the price, but do so respectfully and with some humor.
Consider how to get a purchase home—a canvas duffel bag lined with plastic can help protect the textiles, though some shops offer shipping services.
While foreign visitors are not expected to dress according to local customs, when visiting any of the mosques, one must dress appropriately for admittance.
At the Aya Sofya or Blue Mosque, which are very close to the Grand Bazaar, men must wear long pants, and women must wear cover to mid shins. Women must also don a wrap or pashmina covering their heads. Wraps are supplied at the entrance of the Blue Mosque, free of charge or more stylish choices can be purchased easily in the Grand Bazaar.
A day of haggling can work up an appetite. There are incredible options available to the traveler, but we recommend heading over to the Galata Bridge for an Istanbul fish sandwich. Fishermen catch, grill, and serve their catches fresh on their boats so you can enjoy a delicious, fresh dinner while watching the sunset over the Golden Horn!

An old imperial city of Morocco called The Red City, Marrakesh oozes a character and charm unlike any other. Brimming with palaces, monuments, museums and souks, you will be hard pressed to decide on an itinerary for your visit.
A natural formation, the Grand Canyon is wild, untamed and breathtakingly beautiful. An awe-inspiring and spiritual experience, this is something that will stay with you forever.
Britain's greatest prehistoric icon, Stonehenge projects an aura of intrigue, power and endurance. The awe-inspiring mysterious ring of stones dated approximately 5000 years ago still continues to mesmerize visitors with their spartan beauty amidst their lush surroundings.
A city that breathes lives and personifies romance, Venice is a must in every traveler's wish list. From dreamy gondola rides along the Grand Canal to checking out artistic masterpieces & charming palatial palazzos along with sampling authentic venetian cuisine & aperitivios, there is never a dull moment in this city.
Peru's most-visited site, Machu Picchu is one of the new Seven Wonders of the World. Dating to the mid-1400s, this lost city of the Incas is an architectural marvel. Perched on a high plateau, deep in the Amazonian jungle, this is a perfect destination for a long hike.
This Czechoslovakian jewel attracts tourists in droves with its bohemian allure and fairytale atmosphere. Tired of sitting around beaches, doing nothing? Welcome on board. You can have the time of your life exploring old castles, museums, and strolling around charming, quaint streets, seeing the local Attractions.

You just can't end this list without including Dubai, the ultimate luxury destination. Embodying opulence, magnificence and eccentricity, Dubai is a man made miracle that is a visual feast. Pamper yourself at some of the most lavish resorts in the world, indulge in tax free mega shopping, embark on grand desert safaris< and experience the rich Arabic culture and cuisine.
Turkey is a country that is popular for its glorious history and ancient buildings. If you are looking for a pressure free get-away, this is the privilege spot to arrange your visit. This nation can give you a complete unwinding from the hurrying around of city life. The pleasant scenes, innumerable landmarks, inviting and accommodating local people, rich society and artworks will all make your outing extraordinary.
At the point when talking about chronicled destinations in Turkey, Hagia Sophia Museum is a paramount milestone in this nation. This spot initially started its trip as a congregation and after that was changed over into a Mosque. In any case, now, this verifiable site is operating as a historical center thus it is open for individuals from any religion and society visiting from diverse nations of the world. This sublime game has the attractions of both a congregation and a mosque.
An alternate chronicled site that ought to be visited while in Istanbul is the Blue Mosque, which fits in with the seventeenth century. The heavenly construction modelling in this spot will draw in you all things considered. The pale blue shadow that falls in this mosque from the towers and minarets found close is the purpose for the name of this mosque. It's area in the capital city makes it the best vacationer spot in Turkey.
The other incredible spots you can find in Istanbul are the famous Egyptian Spice Market and the Grand Bazaar, Haghia Sophia and Topkapi Palace. These four extraordinary spots define Istanbul. Top pattern spotters call Istanbul "The World's Hippest City" and you will know why when you stroll around Cosmopolitan Istanbul. Find out why Istanbul is a shopping sanctuary by visiting the more than 4000 shops and restaurants around the Egyptian Spice Market and the Grand Bazaar. In the event that building design and workmanship are your strong point, then the 30 million gold tesserae inside Haghia Sophia will clearly flabbergast you. On the off chance that you are a devotee of the Ottoman Empire, then come and visit the Harem and its four patios inside Topkapi Palace.
While the amazing sights and experience of Istanbul may overpower you, Turkey's capital Ankara is likewise a spot you ought not to pass without going around the city. Its nearby history goes far over to the Bronze Age with the rise of the Hatti progress. It gloats of a few incredible spots like Ataturk Mausoleum, which is the entombment spot of the Turkish Republic organizer, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk. If you need to see a 360 perspective of the city of Ankara, then go on top of a slope where the Citadel of Ankara is superbly arranged. It gloats of a customary structure that serves as a typical structure for the whole city.
In the matter of Turkey visits, a standout amongst the most visited spots is the Pamukkale. The Crystalline spring waters make it the best spot to visit. It is thought to be the most overall protected chronicled pearls in the nation. Ephesus is an antiquated focus and it is ideal to pick a bundle that has this spot as a part. Cappadocia is an alternate spot to visit and it draws in individuals with its rough structures.

Battlefield 4 Considering Saves Transfer, System Requirements, Xbox One Won't Block Games If You Get Banned And The Last Of Us
Battlefield 4 releases both on current gen platforms and the upcoming next gen consoles. And DICE is considering the ability to transfer saves between current gen consoles and onto the next.
You know, in the case you get an itch to see what Battlefield 4 looks like on the PS4/Xbox One.
Speaking in an interview, DICE said "[we] just started having this discussion, so this is not settled yet. But we have heard that – I don't know if this came from inside or outside of DICE – but that is being discussed."
[Article continues after the image]
Battlefield 4 has sent out invitations to testers to play their alpha build. The system requirements for the alpha build is:
OS: Vista SP2, Win7 (Win8 not supported)
64 bit (32 bit not supported)
Dx10 or Dx 11 GPU with 1+GB of RAM, Dx 11 highly recommended
25GB HDD free space required
Latest Origin version required
Microsoft has cleared up the confusion whether you can still play your Xbox One games if you get banned from Xbox Live. The answer is that yes you can. Microsoft's Major Nelson said, you will "always have access to the games you purchased". Even if you are banned from Xbox Live, I might add.
Finally, The Last of Us is currently the best selling game in the UK. Can't wait to get my hands on it.

Wow i love what you've done with the mobile version of the website. Really nice, typiing this on an android device btw. Sorry for not being active but I've been quite busy, just get enough time to check facebook once or twice. The system requirements are subject to change I suppose? Also this one is not very informative

Model UN students around the world are constantly searching for new ways to improve their performances in committees and the quality of their research material. Some students choose to read international relations or political science journals to expand their knowledge on foreign policy and the complexities of the political world; others prefer to watch or read the news every day to keep themselves updated with everything that is happening around the world. There are certainly many ways to improve as a delegate, but those mentioned above are not the only ways to do so.
With the rise of smartphones and tablets, comes the increase in "apps" (applications) available to the average gadget-user. It is important to note that apps are not useful for simply playing games or sharing pictures with your friends. They can also be used for keeping up with breaking news, expanding your knowledge of numerous topics, improving your performance in committee session, and helping you to access information quickly outside committee sessions or during unmoderated caucuses (but always check your conference's policy on the use of technology first!).
Below you will find a list of useful apps that will help you prepare for all aspects of any conference.
1. Model UN App
Created by Bellwether, the Model UN app is an incredible source of information to have for any Model UN student in their smartphone or tablet. The absolute best thing about this app is that it works even without the internet. This app features:
- The list of preambulatory and operative clauses
- The UN Charter
- The Universal Declaration of Human Rights
- World Map
- The UN Systems Chart (Useful for the understanding the structure of the United Nations)
- Factbook
- UN News (Latest News Updates)
- List of NGOs completed with individual profiles
This app is very handy when you need to quickly look up UN-related information or a country's profile, as well as when it is time to write resolutions, considering its list of relevant clauses and easily accessible NGOs.
Available through iTunes and the Google Play Store
As a Model UN student that always wants to be in the know, you have probably already heard about TED or spend hours on the website watching videos about life changing, innovative ideas. To those who haven't discovered this amazing website or conference yet, TED is a basically platform devoted to spreading knowledge. TED conferences and events are held daily around the world and many of the talks or presentations in those conferences can be found in the TED website and also in their app. The TED app has over 1,400 TED Talk videos. The app provides subtitles for the videos and you can also download your favorite videos and view them off line. Watching TED talks is a great way to learn about new approaches taken by scholars around the world to tackle global issues.
Available through iTunes and the Google Play Store
3. News Apps
There are numerous apps created by news stations and newspaper companies with the purpose of providing technology users with the latest breaking news. News apps are overall quite similar. They report similar news and have analogous interfaces. Based on the overall rankings of news apps in numerous websites, we recommend the NY Times, CNN, Thomson Reuters News, and Press Reader.
The CNN app is particularly good for quick and short updates for news. The app is really easy to navigate and you can access fell length articles completed with photos and videos. You can also enable push notifications to receive a notification when anything big happens around the world. For those who enjoy reading newspaper, you might like the Press Reader better. The Press Reader has over 2,300 full-content newspapers from 100+ countries and in 55+ languages. The Press Reader can come in handy when you need to find news about a country in particular.
Available through iTunes and the Google Play Store
4. Office Suite 7 for Android Users/ Document 5 for Apple Product Users
Many readings for conference preparation come in the form of Word documents or PDF files and sometimes it can be a hassle to print out everything and carry them around, especially since laptops and computers are not always readily accessible. Apps such as Office Suite 7 or Document 5 could prove useful to Model UN students. You can download the documents you want to read and easily access them in your smartphone or on your tablet. These apps also come with features that allow you to take notes while you read and highlight the parts that you would want to look back onto. This app would not only be useful for reading international relations journals or press releases but also for reading your background guide for the conference.
Other Apps that you might find helpful:
- UN CountryStats
- WDI Data Finder
- The World in Figures by the Economist
- Humanitarian Kiosk
- Apps made by Publishers such as Foreign Affairs, Foreign Policy, Time Magazine, The Economist, Newsweek (Some of the publications might have to be purchased)
These are only few of the many apps that Model UN students could use to simplify their research process and to improve their performance as a delegate. Technology is a powerful tool for expanding your knowledge and Model UN students should take full advantage of it. However, always keep mind that the apps suggested above are not supposed to replace the research that you should do for every conference. They are tools that will help you through the process. Furthermore, always respect your conference's rules for using electronic devices inside and outside committee rooms.
If you have any other apps that you have found useful as a delegate please comment below!

HTC's Android devices face ban in Germany after Nokia wins another injunction in court
0. phoneArena posted on 21 Dec 2013, 15:26
HTC has been trying to put out some legal fires lately. But just when they think that they have one fire under control, another pops up. In the U.K., HTC has received a stay of injunction preventing Nokia from enforcing a sales ban it won in court against the HTC One mini. Actually, the Finnish based OEM won a sales ban against both the HTC One and the HTC One mini...

I know, so fackin BS. These patent trolls only get a leg up on the weak small competitors. What better way to win than by competition in the courtroom, where they definitely can't compete.

Didn't the U.K. jidge lifted the ban. Patent wars is getting out of hand.

Patent war seems like going to put an end to technological advancement
34. Ashoaib (Posts: 3229; Member since: 15 Nov 2013)
Nokia cant compete with any manufacturer so its good for them to keep money flowing atleast by playing dirty, by playing patent patent...
2. PapaSmurf (Posts: 10457; Member since: 14 May 2012)
Uh oh. This is devastating news in HTC's HQ.
8. giani (Posts: 269; Member since: 13 Nov 2012)
Don't be. As long as they make devices like the One they will be fine. This is an android patent infringement just like the one in uk was related to Qualcomm. Pretty sure they get compensation in any cases. With this one however it will be interesting because Google needs to start defending. And if I'm honest...I would rather be worried for Nokia...not only their phones are mehhh..With this behaviour they won't win any fans.. oh and let's be straight... Nokia has every right to defend their intellectual property.. but why go for the smallest...and weakest... Nokia is not Apple...they don't have enough fan base to deal with all the hate..
14. PapaSmurf (Posts: 10457; Member since: 14 May 2012)
It was HTC, not Android. You don't see Google being sued by Nokia.
16. ihavenoname (Posts: 1693; Member since: 18 Aug 2013)
Nokia is acting very childish. They do stuff like this, mock competition and (which is Very big no no) users that use competiting product. Nokia is now offically douche.
19. PapaSmurf (Posts: 10457; Member since: 14 May 2012)
This is MS speaking, not Nokia.
20. microsoftnokiawin (Posts: 1263; Member since: 30 Mar 2012)
papaSmurf do you have anything to backup that claim and all htc has to do is hit up qualcomm and ask for something different powering their one's !
26. giani (Posts: 269; Member since: 13 Nov 2012)
And I quote:"This could be a scare for all Android manufacturers although Google chose not to get involved in the case at this point."
I know you are 12...but even you can understand that if it was a pure HTC infringement that phrase should not be in the article. Plus if you Google it a bit you will find that is
AN ANDROID INFRINGEMENT! HENCE MY FIRST REPLY and why I think Nokia is very LAME.

I feel bad for HTC :(
12. InspectorGadget80 (unregistered)
I feel sad for Nokia :(

I feel bad for both. Nokia wasn't like this before M$.

NOKIA tries to catch up with others! so as HTC ! like apple/samsung fight that made everybody focus on their flagships and products ! these two are trying to get customers extra attention !
6. Ant34 (Posts: 193; Member since: 10 Aug 2013)
I'm starting to dislike Nokia as mush as I dislike Apple.
9. maccess (Posts: 742; Member since: 16 Jan 2013)
same here.. even though i was a nokia user at symbian era from like 6600 to something like n95.. but then i lost my faith since they decided to go with wp and start acting like a douche on twitter..
15. ihavenoname (Posts: 1693; Member since: 18 Aug 2013)
I love Nokia, but I'm not sure how long anymore. They use Windows Phone, which for me is like good feature phone OS. They also do lots of BS commercials, and are really d-bags on Twitter. And now they are owned by company which makes average desktop OS, (even I use it, eventhough I hate M$ but it's basicly only choice besides Mac-only OS X) and basicly all the rest they do is worse than competition (well, Xbox music is ok).
24. Martin_Cooper (Posts: 1709; Member since: 30 Jul 2013)
Yes because two large corporations suing each other is affecting your life so dramatically that you hate one of them. Grow up people. This was done for hundreds of years now. Its very simple. If you never stole anything or if you always payed for using other companies technologies then you dont have to be afraid of getting sued, Its simple as that. Oh and NOKIA being one of the first mobile phone companies with motorola they own s**t loads of patents that many times are used by others without paying them.
7. dspkblympkbl (Posts: 51; Member since: 23 May 2013)
If Nokia wants to make money they better sell some phones...apple's iPhone sells, learn that from them, Nokia.
28. Sonny_09 (Posts: 49; Member since: 24 May 2013)
And Apple doesn't sue for other's infringement of their own patents?
10. GeekMovement (unregistered)
Man HTC was already in a tough position to begin with. If their next flagship doesn't sell as well as the HTC One, they're in trouble.
17. ihavenoname (Posts: 1693; Member since: 18 Aug 2013)
HTC is great company, they make (mostly) unique and well made, innovative phones. I think that they will be ok, but nothing is sure.
18. GeekMovement (unregistered)
I agree, the designs of their phones are spectacular. The next HTC flagship is one I'm definitely excited and looking forward to this coming year.
21. Thehamster (Posts: 19; Member since: 04 Dec 2013)
Man I am torn. HTC and Nokia are my two favorite oems. It sucks when they behave this way, but it is understandable that they want to make money on their own patents...
22. Antonyjoseph (Posts: 217; Member since: 06 Apr 2013)
If HTC is copying technology without paying for it they deserve this. After all they are not operating in the Chinese market, where the concept of copyright infringements doesnt seem to exist.
23. b1acktiger (Posts: 223; Member since: 19 May 2012)
Didn't understood why Nokia is targeting HTC only, 1st in UK, the infringement was Qualcomm's chipset based, its not a secret that all the major OEM's use qualcomms chipset. And now in germany, its purely an infringement of Google's android software. But Nokia is targeting only HTC. Why's that ?
25. Jaeel (Posts: 27; Member since: 18 Apr 2013)
Dunno. Perhaps they see HTC as one more likely to pay up, since they really don't have time or money to spend in long legal battles.

text: Video News: United Kingdom Three year prison sentence for hit and run case EDITORS PLEASE NOTE: CONTAINS GRAPHIC MATERIAL PLEASE NOTE: EDIT CONTAINS CONVERTED 4:3 MATERIAL A Chinese court sentenced 25 year old Hu Jun to three-and-a-half years in prison for the hit and run death of a two-year-old girl last year. The case caused an international outcry when video of Hu crushing the girl with his van, and of several on-lookers who ignored her, went viral on the internet. Hu was convicted of 'involuntary homicide' according to the state run Xinhua news agency said. Eighteen pedestrians and cyclists were seen passing her bleeding body before someone finally moved her to the side of the road and tried to alert her parents. Yue was taken to hospital but died of brain failure days later. The court said Hu's sentence was lenient because he turned himself in and paid part of the child's medical expenses, Xinhua reported. © DailyMotion - Friday, September 7, 2012

I am an adoptee. This was a fact of my life that I have always known. I had wonderful and loving parents but something was missing. I have always wondered who, out there, was connected to me. I grew up in the Bronx, New York.
When I gave birth to my first child I felt the burning desire to find out who gave birth to me. At first it was for the sake of my beautiful baby girl. She really should know her medical history. Later it was the need of filling a hole in my life that left me feeling alone.
My search was long and hard. I would get a piece of information and my adrenaline would rise. When that piece of information got me only so far, I would feel depressed. But the need was so strong that I just couldn't stop looking.
After 8 years of searching I finally received the name and phone number of the woman that gave birth to me.
I picked up the phone and started to dial and then slammed it down. My hands shaking, I would repeat this several times. Finally I got myself together, collected my thoughts and dialed the number. It was now ringing and my breathing got heavier.
She answered the phone. "Hello?"
I said "Hello Rhea. My name is Jeannie Lachman and I am your daughter." The phone was silent for a moment or two but felt like several minutes.
She said "No". I thought, What??? I took a breath and said, "I know this must be a shock to you as I had time to prepare for this call and you have not. Would you like me to give you time and call you back tomorrow or next week, whatever is best of you?"
She said yes and asked me to call back the next day.
I waited 24 hours. It felt like an eternity. Would she deny me? Would she be angry with me for calling? Did I even have the right person?
I called back the next day and she apologized for what she said and would love to get to know me. I was elated. I told her that she didn't have to tell anyone I contacted her as I truly didn't want to disrupt her life. She told me she had a daughter and was going to tell her. She would not reveal the name of my birth father nor the circumstances behind the relationship with him.
I soon received a letter in the mail from Carole, my birth sister. How sweet of her to write me.
We corresponded through mail and through the computer.
I also phoned Rhea every other Sunday for a year before Carole suggested we reunite at her house.
My husband and I drove seven hours to Toronto. When we arrived at the hotel I was feeling very nervous. We called Carole and told her we were on our way to her house.
We pulled into the driveway and I knew this was it. A moment I had waited for all my life. We knocked on the door and when it opened I saw Carole's husband and standing behind him was my mother. She was a small frail woman with a beautiful smile on her face and we embraced.
Our visit was a whirlwind. There was so much to take in. But nice as the visit was, my birth mother still would not give me any information on my birth father.
Carole and I built a great relationship over the years. We visited each other from time to time.
Through the years my birth mother would still not speak about who my father was.
As I lost both of my adoptive parents to cancer 4 years apart I realized how quickly you can lose a loved one so I wrote my birth mother a letter asking for information.
She told me she would think about it.
One year went by and Rhea was diagnosed with cancer. I was told by Carole that the family discussed it and thought I would be nice if I could visit her in the hospital.
My husband and I dropped everything and travelled to northern Canada to visit her in the hospital.
She held my hand and smiled. She was so happy I was there.
Even on her deathbed she would not tell me who my dad was.
I left feeling empty. I was sad this would be the last time I would see or hear from her. It broke my heart. But at the same time I was angry at her for keeping this secret I desperately wanted to know.
While I was back in New York, Carole overheard a key piece of information regarding my dad.
After worrying about disobeying her family's wishes she finally told me. I now had a name!
When Rhea passed away my husband and I went to the funeral. I did not tell people who I was. Only close family knew about me.
If I had any advice for adoptees searching it would be to have patience. It is a long, hard road. It is an emotional roller coaster. Be persistent.
I joined support groups. I was told that you can write to the adoption agency you were adopted through requesting non identifying information. Even though it is non-identifying it still tells you things you may need in your search. There are many more resources out there now than there was when I was searching.
Read the full story here, Jeannie's new book.

Briefly… It was another terrific Cinema Wasteland. Seriously, I almost wish Ken and Pam would put on one that sucked just to break up their record! But no, we had a vast amount of fun, made a decent amount of money and got to see our bi-annual friends and catch up with life. This trip we had a few "newbies"—Tara Cooper (who truthfully lost her Wasteland virginity in April), Tabatha Carrick, Nikki McCrea and Aaron Bernard came out to help us promote Demon Divas and the Lanes of Damnation and it was fun watching the madness unfold through their eyes. Seriously, how do you describe writer Joe Knetter ("Zombie Bukkake") without visuals? How do you explain the films of Bill Zeebub without the proper demonstrative tools? And since we had Henrique Couto with us, and his ever-present ukulele, that just added to the surrealistic nature of the weekend.
There was a last-minute snafu, however, that turned things on an interesting curve for us. Damian and Ed, the creators of the ubiquitous "Living Dead Dolls", had to cancel at the very last minute due to transportation problems. To keep from having empty spaces, Pam shuffled some of us around, putting the Teddy Scares folks in the corner usually occupied by "Living Dead Dolls" and moving us behind Art and Allana's Ultra-Violent table. So for the first time in, I believe, five years, we weren't facing the door.
Now you wouldn't think something as minor as that would be a disaster—and in truth, it wasn't. But it was a completely new perspective for us, facing the room instead of the door. Because Wasteland is one of our favorite places on Earth, we don't handle change well. Hell, we nearly wept when our directly-behind-us neighbors moved an aisle over for more space! Now where we were, we were given a bigger table and had all the space we needed to spread out (necessary, as we're behind-the-table slobs), but it was almost an alien perspective at first. I experienced instant paranoia, thinking people were sneaking up on me all weekend. Again, not a big deal except what we made of it. We were still there among the ones we loved and by on Friday, we were used to the view, but beyond anything else, we discovered what creatures of habit we truly are.
I'm choosing to blame our Friday-night rule breaking on the new perspective, even though I should really pin the accusations on our own lack of responsibility. Friday nights we try to take things easy, get to bed at a decent hour and save our partying for Saturday. But the French Canadians—Simon, Hugo and Steve—were in the house as well, and they can drink us virtually under the table so… we slipped.
I didn't get hammered, but since my drink of choice is rum and coke, invariably, if I drink too much, the alcohol wears off faster than the caffeine. As a result, I spent much of the nocturne hours between and staring at the blinking light on the smoke alarm, growing increasingly convinced that Dick Cheney was watching me. Amy and Tara fared no better. For some reason, the Holiday Inn chose to replace their downy comforters with something made either out of crinoline or old tambourines. Regardless of their composition, every move any of us made beneath those comforters would echo through the room. Madness, I tell you.
So as a result, we looked terribly hung over, minus the joyful memories of being drunk the previous night. All I wanted to do was crawl under the table and sleep, but the show must go on! And go on it must'vely.
Because of my sleep-deprived condition, I found myself reaching my maximum level of small talk quicker than usual. Perhaps the never-ending ukulele music wasn't assisting. Or perhaps it was the unusual amount of political banter surrounding me—yes, Sarah Palin is an empty-headed mannequin and John McCain is a pod person. I agree, go away—but by about that afternoon, I was attempting to lure passersby into conversations about Proust, Billy Wilder and Marcel Marceau. I just couldn't talk about the election, torture porn or "Slaughtered Vomit Dolls" any longer. God help us all!
Oddly, because it's Wasteland, the movie and convention gods were on my side. Whenever I started to slide too far to either side of my homicide – suicide scale, someone would invariably swing by to cheer me up, whether it was Art Ettinger making another "Minutemen" joke about my name, Mike and Carrie presenting me with a genuine "Mike Watt" etched glass, or Coralina Cataldi-Tassoni giving me a personal introduction to Lamberto Bava. It's hard to have lowered spirits at Cinema Wasteland for very long.
Two other surprises were in store for me that weekend. The first was discovering that I was mentioned twice in the
The second surprise came from one of our fans and supporters and con friends who showed me a little souvenir thing he bought at Borders called "Whack-A-Zombie". It's a box that comes with a small inflatable bob bag with a zombie painted on it, so that you can slap it around to your heart's content. It also comes with a little book, a guide to zombies, zombie lore and zombie entertainment. In it, it has a short list of "the better-known" zombie novels available out there. Predictably, it includes books like "World War Z" by Max Brooks and "The Risen" by Brian Keene, but right there, at number five, is "The Resurrection Game", with my name spelled correctly. "Better known"? Thank you very much! So the authors of this little book are responsible for my tiny quarterly publisher's royalty check! I'm eternally grateful.
As usual, Sunday rolled around leaving us torn between wanting to go home and never wanting to leave. While we did achieve sleep Saturday night, we were all afflicted with a degree of hotel kennel cough, leaving us hoarse and exhausted. Amy, as we discovered, was developing a sinus infection that would chase her through the rest of the week. I just wanted to sleep for another month or so.
It took us a good hour to say our good-byes—always longer than the hellos. We got to hang out with Michael Berryman and Kane Hodder for a little bit, though, which was nice. And we made plans to try and get together with the Kishs and some of the other Wasteland crew who we've come to know and love. On the drive home, we looked back at the weekend, realizing that Tara makes a terrific personal assistant/one-woman personal support group, Henrique and Charles are a cool comedy team (that will someday result in a ukulele passing completely through Henrique's digestive tract), Tabatha and Steve are nauseatingly cute, Hugo can take a punch, Simon is hiding a very clever and very cruel streak that I hope to see come out more, and Rhonda and Kyle are more disturbed than I had even suspected. In short: another terrific Wasteland.

The Old Nova Scotia School is a beautiful Greek Revival style school house that was built in 1853. It originally stood on the corner of Fern Hill Road and Route 6. The school closed in June of 1929 was disassembled on September 4, 1990. Its reconstruction in Munson Park on DeForest Street was a joint project of The Lions Club Old Fellows, the UNICO Club, and the Watertown Historical Society, with an opening ceremony that was held on May 30, 1993. The school house is maintained by the historical society and is furnished as is would have been in the 1800s.
Sandy Sakalas, a retired teacher from the Watertown School system, presents an educational program in connection with the schoolhouse. This program recreates the one-room school house experience of the 19th century. Kids can gather around the woodstove, or sit at the desks, and be transported back in time. The entrance and the exit of the school house are roomy enough to allow the society to showcase a small collection of antique toys and games.
Please contact the Watertown Historical Society, by phone or email, if you have a group that wishes to visit the school house or enjoy this program.

What Causes Hemorrhoids
Diets, rich in processed food with less of fresh fruits and vegetables is a
major cause for hemorrhoids. Consumption of lots of refined flour,
animal proteins, fiber-depleted carbohydrates, and sugar reduces roughage
and therefore your stools become hard and difficult to pass. This leads to
Strained Bowel Movement
Strained Bowel Movement
Forced bowel movement either trying too hard or for too long can cause
hemorrhoids. Such strained bowel movement could be due to
constipation, diarrhea, or poor bathroom habits. Squatting toilets makes it
easier for smooth bowel movements.
Postponing Bowel Movement
Postponing Bowel Movement
You could occasionally postpone a bowel movement if there are no proper
facilities in the vicinity. This does not cause any great problem. However,
if you are regularly in the habit of postponing bowel movements,
eventually, fecal matter within the intestines gets dried up and
consequently harder. This then strains while passing and therefore leads to
hemorrhoids. Further, fecal matter within colon pressurizes muscles and
veins in the anal region. This causes swelling of veins around the anus and rectum.
Some people inherit weak vein walls. This could lead to hemorrhoids, although this alone may not
be the deciding factor. Weak vein walls combined with long hours of standing or sitting or poor
bathroom habits can lead to hemorrhoids.
During pregnancy, the extra weight of the uterus walls weighs down on the rectal veins. Further, a
long and painful labor causes increased pressure on the anal region. This could lead to constipation
in women without any previous complaints. However, if you already have hemorrhoids, pregnancy
can worsen your problem. This problem worsens in the final trimester.
Constipation and Diarrhea
Constipation and Diarrhea
Both can cause hemorrhoids. Constipation is difficulty in passing stools due to hardening causing
excessive straining. Diarrhea causes excessive passing of watery stools due to any adverse reaction.
This damages rectal veins and leads to hemorrhoids.
Rectal cancer can lead to hemorrhoids. Rectal cancer prompts or causes an urge to defecate often,
although you do not actually defecate. This unnecessary and frequent strain causes excessive
pressure on your veins and leads to hemorrhoids.
Other diseases like heart ailments, liver diseases, irritable bowel syndrome, and intestinal tumors
can indirectly cause hemorrhoids.
Lack of Exercise
Lack of Exercise
A sedentary lifestyle with almost very little movement of muscles causes your muscles to lose their
elasticity. This makes bowel movements difficult. This is a common problem in the elderly and sick
people. Similarly, some jobs require you to sit or stand for very prolonged periods. This also causes
Being overweight causes several problems, hemorrhoids being one of them. Excess weight in the
pelvic and abdomen region increases pressure on the pelvic veins. This leads to hemorrhoids.
Other Possible Causes of Hemorrhoids
Other Possible Causes of Hemorrhoids
Other factors which may be linked to the occurrence of hemorrhoids with some patients may
include vitamin deficiency, frequent use of laxatives, hypertension and poor intake of fluids and
People who regularly suffer from constipation and diarrhea can get hemorrhoids. Similarly, chronic
sufferers of liver diseases and intestinal diseases can get hemorrhoids.
People having jobs that entail long hours of sitting or standing could develop hemorrhoids. People
eating more spicy foods or those drinking less water could suffer from constipation and resultant
hemorrhoidal symptoms.
What is the Treatment for Hemorrhoids?
What is the Treatment for Hemorrhoids?
Thankfully and in most instances, Hemorrhoids can be treated successfully without any
professional medical intervention.
Typical of the products available over the counter is Doctor Butler's Hemorrhoid & Fissure
Undoubtedly popular it's also available online and you would have to read some of the hundreds of
buyer reviews for this ointment to gauge whether or not it might work for you.
However, having said that, it's always best to consult a doctor if you're unsure or the condition lasts
for more than a couple of weeks.
From all pharmacies, you will also be able to buy some creams over the counter called
Corticosteroids which contain a local anaesthetic and will soothe the pain and discomfort. They are
not recommended for long term use though.
There are three other treatments which all require you to visit a medical practitioner.
The first is where a chemical is injected into the hemorrhoid which causes them to shrivel up.
The second way, is called Banding. Where a rubber band is placed around the base of the
hemorrhoid. The Hemorrhoid then shrinks and eventually falls off.
The final option is surgery called hemorrhoidectomy which is only conducted very rarely as less
traumatic methods named above are used. This option would normally be used on internal
hemorrhoids which are very large.
I hope you found this article helpful in so far as getting a better understanding of the causes, effects
and recommended treatments for your hemorrhoids.
Do share it with your wife or husband and include them in your discussions with your doctor
wherever possible, so that they know how best to assist you through this time and also the best
methods for them to avoid getting hemorrhoids themselves.
Hemorrhoids are not a good subject for jokes but they are also not something which anyone should
be embarrassed about having; in time, almost every one will experience this most unpleasant

Former Juventus, AC Milan, Paris Saint Germain, Chelsea and Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti believes Jose Mourinho's experience in the Premier League as Chelsea manager makes him the perfect fit for the Manchester United.
The Italian described it as "a good wedding" because "Mourinho really knows the Premier League well." Ancelotti heaped praise on Mourinho, calling him "one of the best coaches in the world", before adding that United needed to bring in a manager who would improve them, "Manchester United at this moment need someone who can improve what they did in the last two years with Louis van Gaal."
Van Gaal was sacked days after FA Cup glory against Crystal Palace because of a disappointing season resulting in Old Trafford being subject to Europa League football for another season.
Mourinho set to be named manager on Friday
Fans had been calling for Louis van Gaal's head since January after a poor run of form, and many felt United were a poorer side during van Gaal's reign than under David Moyes.
Three-time Champions League winner Ancelotti sympathises with his Dutch counterpart, and acknowledged the hardships of taking over a successful team from a successful manager. Ancelotti said that van Gaal "needed to rebuild a team after Rio Ferdinand, after [Paul] Scholes, after [Ryan] Giggs.", with his AC Milan having faced similar changes.
"When Milan lost [Paolo] Maldini, [Gennaro] Gattuso, [Filippo] Inzaghi it was difficult to rebuild the team quickly, they needed time."
Ancelotti went on to praise United's youth set-up and what they could achieve under the watchful eye of Jose Mourinho, saying that in the "last year" United have shown that "showed they have really good young players," with Marcus Rashford the highlight, "and maybe with Mourinho, they could have a step forward."
Mourinho has bumper budget to rejuvenate United
With Jose Mourinho's return, this time to the north of England, he becomes the most successful manager in the Premier League.
The former-Real Madrid manager is rumoured to have £200million in the bank for summer transfers, with rumours suggesting he already has his eyes on a few targets.
