- Top 10 Tips for Avoiding Exam Offences
- Past exam library can be found on the U of T Library web site

About exams
A Faculty final examination counting for between one-third and two-thirds of the final mark must be held in each 100-series course, unless exemption has been granted by the Faculty of Arts & Science. Courses in the 200-series will normally have a final examination. In 200-, 300- and 400-series courses, the Departments will decide whether or not an examination is appropriate. The ratio of term work to examination mark will be the same for all sections of multi-section courses that have final examinations. The relative value of each part of a written examination must be indicated on the question paper.
Final examinations are held at the end of each session or sub-session. Students taking courses during the day may be required to write evening examinations, and students taking evening courses may be required to write examinations during the day. Examinations may be held on Saturdays. Students who make personal commitments during the examination period do so at their own risk. No special consideration is given and no special arrangements are made in the event of conflicts resulting from personal commitments.
Students who are unable to write their examinations due to illness, etc., should contact their College Registrar (see "Petitions Regarding Examinations" in the Calendar).
Students who have two Faculty final examinations at the same time, or three consecutive Faculty final examinations (e.g., morning, afternoon, evening; or afternoon, evening, next morning) should report the conflict to the Office of the Faculty Registrar by the deadline shown on the examination schedule. Information regarding dates, times and locations of examinations will not be given by telephone or email; for the most up to date examination timetable see above..
Students who cannot write a final examination at the scheduled time because of a religious obligation should report this conflict to the Office of the Faculty Registrar as soon as the conflict is known, and no later than the deadline shown on the examination schedule.
CELL PHONES: Make sure your cell phone is turned off and not on your person. Check your pockets before you settle in. Possession of a cell phone is an academic offence, and if you are caught with one, you will be sanctioned. You can avoid being charged with a cell phone offence in three ways: (1) leave your phone at home, or (2) turn your phone off and leave it with the rest of your belongings at the side or front of the room, or (3) if you brought a bag (paper, transparent plastic or
non-transparent plastic), you can store these items inside it
under your chair (as long as the bag is large enough): cell
phone, wallet, laptop computer and any small electronic devices such as
calculator. As long as you put your phone in the bag and place it under the desk before the exam begins, you will not be considered to be "in possession" of a phone. Of course, you will not be able to touch the bag until after the exam ends.

Everyone except the folks who made this Abilify commercial! Ha!
What I get with this address is YouTube homepage. Is that what you intend?
This URL works: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25fGWKZFLIY
And here's perhaps the ultimate honest and/or satirical drug commercial:
"Preexisting conditions may result from underuse. Pregnant women may have babies."
Thanks. That abilify warning list is amazing. After watching that, it's surprising anyone would take it.
So, I've decided it's time to start being more openly critical of religious lunatics, and perhaps religion in general. Posted this on my Facebook today. Here's hoping that every little bit will make a difference for someone struggling with nonbelief.
Humble Pie, a sound decision! "start being more openly critical of religious lunatics, and perhaps religion in general."

Thanks Joan! :)
This is my favorite Cindy Jacobs video!
Jacobs: Birds Dying Because of DADT Repeal
This very foolish woman looks and sounds silly, except some believe, based on her utterances! We can't fix stupid.
We can speak up with vigor, enthusiasm, truthful and honest answers to such nonsense.
Joan, to be honest, I think she's more evil than stupid. No evidence for that. It's just hard for me to believe anyone is that stupid.
I kept feeling distracted by the shininess of her clothing. I started to feel hypnotized. It's as of it was saying "you will send me money. you will send me money".
Psh... My backup plan has always been to become a charismatic televangelist. If I do, I'm going for a white robe with a big gold cross. It'll be so huge, I'll make Flavor Flav look like an amateur. And, like the rest of Xianity, it will be fake and hollow. ;)
I think this is the "Great Filter" that Ruth so wisely discussed. Human beings get to the point where they can destroy life as we know it, and out of fear, a huge proportion of the country takes the words of religioun seriously. Instead of it being part of our historical past, it becomes the definer of our demise.

hi there! you're so welcome here. as you may have noticed, i love to make quilts!
in the other 80% of my life, i'm a late twenties housewife and momma
living just outside a small town on the Alberta prairies (Canada)
quilting and sewing are what i share here, because i just love to quilt, and most folks
in that other 80% think i'm curazy for wanting to cut apart fabric and sew it back together.
and here's the spot where i've found that there are other funny folks like me,
who actually find this stuff pretty interesting!
if you have any questions, feel free to send me an email, or a comment. i'll do my best to reply.

Spring time in the UK is signaled for many people with the arrival of the snowdrop.
With it's blue green foliage and delicate white flower, the snowdrop ( Galanthus ) is one of the first flowers to peep above the ice and snow of winter.
Throughout England, Scotland and Wales many villages, houses and public places celebrate the snowdrop with festivals and activities.
One of the major events, held for many years, is the Snowdrop Festival in Scotland.
This year the festival takes place from the 1 February to the 15 March.
Snowdrop walks and events
Ragley Hall, Warwickshire – Early in the season the bank boasts a spectacular show of welcome colour.
Colesbourne Park -near Cheltenham – Every Saturday and Sunday in February plus Saturday 5th March and Sunday 6th March 2011
Chippenham Park – Cambridgeshire – is a large country house with substantial gardens, lakes, woodland walks and parkland dating back to the 17th century. The display of naturalised snowdrops at Chippenham Park is probably the finest in East Anglia.
For years Snowdrop Valley, Wheddon Cross, was a local secret. Wheddon Cross is the highest village on Exmoor. You can now visit the area, and the snowdrops, using the Park and Ride scheme.
Rode Hall – Cheshire – A spectacular snowdrop display with over fifty varieties set in a Repton landscape. The mile-long Snowdrop Walk is a perfect stroll out in the fresh air for the whole family, amidst swathes of cascading white flowers.
Welford Park – Berkshire – Welford Park is at the heart of the Lambourn Valley and is home to the extraordinary seven acre drift of snowdrops.
Howick Hall Gardens – Visit the stunning Snowdrop Walks from 6th February onwards. The gardens and tea room are open every Wednesday – Sunday 10.30am – 4.00pm until 27th March. There is a large collection of snowdrops mainly planted between the wars by Lady Grey, who was a great bulb enthusiast; over time, a number of natural hybrid's have evolved and multiplied.
Painswick Rococo Garden – The Rococo Garden has one of the largest naturalistic plantings of snowdrops in the country and is in many ways the spiritual home of Galanthus Atkinsii.
Benington Lordship Gardens – The gardens are famous for the huge drifts of naturalised Snowdrops that cover most of the moat and the grounds around the Norman castle and house in February & March.
Chelsea Physic Garden – The Garden boasts a collection of over 75 species, largely grouped together as a tribute to some of the most famous snowdrop breeders of the 19th and 20th centuries.
Goldsborough Hall's first ever snowdrop day – Sunday, 20 February 2011 – This will be the first time the Hall will be open to visitors so early in the year and they are keen to attract Galanthophiles and gardeners with a keen interest in snowdrops, in the hope that they might be able to help identify some rare varieties in the 11 acres of garden.
National Trust properties
Many National Trust properties feature snowdrop walks. From Wiltshire to Yorkshire the dark, cold woodland floors will soon be carpeted with thousands of white blooms.
Stourhead – Wiltshire – Follow criss-crossing paths to enchanting temples, enjoy lakeside walks and spot the first signs of spring all around you.
Nymans – West Sussex – At the start of spring, wonderful displays of snowdrops as well as camellias and magnolias underplanted with a host of daffodils and grape hyacinths.
NGS – The National Garden Scheme has a few early opening gardens, some with over 50 species of snowdrop as well as cyclamen and helebores.
Orkney – Perhaps the most northerly of the snowdrop walks can be found at Binscarth Wood on mainland Orkney.

Baby Steps Challenge update: composting
I'm happy to report that this challenge has become such a habit that I can't imagine throwing things like potato peels, tea bags, or eggshells in the trash anymore. I've even managed to get my husband to go along with the program most of the time, although he still sometimes gets confused about what can be composted. He found a container that we put right outside the back door to throw scraps on their way to the bin, which is very helpful. And it took me almost a year, but I finally put the Pillsbury doughboy to rest (sold for $5!) and purchased a beautiful crock on ebay that sits on the counter.
One of the unintentional byproducts of composting that I love is that we're producing much less trash, and it's much less smelly. My husband likes this too, since he's now only taking the trash out to the curb once every three weeks or so. It's hard to imagine we ever took it out nearly every week. We used to have to plan who would take it out for us if we were out of town, what a waste of effort.
So I give myself high marks for tackling something that initially seemed very foreign to me, not to mention having a high "ick" factor (worms), and making it a habit. And if you're thinking about composting, if I can do it, so can you.
However, having done so well with throwing all that stuff in bins, I've now got two bins the size of the one in the picture and one twice that size filled to the brim with various stages of compost. I didn't do as well with turning it, and in fact hardly ever did it. So now I'm not sure what's the best way to go about turning this into compost that can actually be used. And I'm not a big gardener, so I don't know when/if I'll use it, but I can give it away.
Incidentally, I didn't need to buy any worms. They did indeed find their way into my bins, even in the hard dry soil of Southern California.
I used this tutorial from The Frugal Girl to get started. If you're ready to start composting, I encourage you to read it and you'll see how easy it is to save food scraps from the landfill and create your own compost to grow plants and flowers. All you need is a container, a drill, and about fifteen minutes of your time.
Composting experts, I still have a few questions. How do you know when you have the right combination of green and brown materials? I think I might have used too many leaves in an effort to make sure the food didn't smell or attract bugs, and the little bit I tried to use seemed too dry. But maybe that was because I didn't turn it enough. How often do you turn it, and if it hasn't been turned for many months, is it too late to start? Can you ruin compost? Please leave your thoughts in the Comments section.
Do you compost? Give us your best tips! Thanks again to all my readers who helped me through the process last summer with your excellent advice. Check out my original post on the subject and this update to read all the helpful user comments.

Since you're already composting and have the worms you might want to look into how to make worm castings. They sell for $75 a bucket here in Hawaii. Worm poop makes great soil and the farmers love it.

I have 4 composters (I know, a lot) outside plus a giant worm bin in the basement that I mostly use in the winter, but I feed it enough to maintain it through the summer. (Between a vegetarian household and a garden, we produce a lot of compostables.)
A frugal tip: If you know anyone with a rain barrel that split (which happens if there's water in it which freezes - which it occurs to me only happens in cold places, but it's common here) you can turn it into a composter by cutting off the bottom and top, then using the bottom as a lid. (Drainage/aeration holes are a good idea, too.)
To finish off the compost, in late summer or fall I tend to consolidate the compost down to a bin or 2 (which does some mixing) then stop using those bins to let them break down. (This obviously only works if you have 2 or more composters.) When it came time to use the compost, I used to just pick out any uncomposted bits and toss them back into the other composter, but I'm planning on making a sifter out of an old frame, some hardware cloth, and staples. We'll see how it goes!

First I'd like to say I've really been enjoying reading this blog. I'm looking into alternative ways of living and it is interesting to read the ideas on here.
Second, I don't turn my compost at all. I don't follow any specific rules about the ratio of dry/wet stuff but just put in whatever I can. My compost bin is a black purpose-built affair which sits directly in sunshine (when we have it - seems to be missing today)which does mean it hots up nicely. Despite my neglect it seems to be working. I used my first lot of compost on my new vegetable beds this year and I've been amazed at how well the veggies have grown. I did worry that the compost hadn't rotted down properly because there was small bits of fabric, eggshell, etc. However, I was assured by a self-sufficiency expert that this is perfectly normal, does no harm but just looks a bit unsightly.

But maybe that was because I didn't turn it enough. How often do you turn it, and if it hasn't been turned for many months, is it too late to start?
You can't ruin compost. Eventually, it will do its thing, regardless of what you do. I think more brown is better than more green.
If your compost is too wet, you might get maggots (which don't hurt it, but ew!), and you'll want to add in more brown. If it's too dry, you could consider adding some water, but I'd say just leave it. I have open bins, and the "right" combination for me is more on the brown side, where it has a pleasant earthy smell and pests aren't attracted to it.
Don't worry too much about the turning. Turning helps speed things along, but it'll eventually get there either way. It's never too late to start. A good turning will be helpful, even if it's rare.

Hi there, Gus from UK here. I will read this thread with interest as I have just acquired an 'Alotment' in my home town, to be able to grow vegetables for our own use - and likely the rest of the family. Not sure if Alotment is a term used in US, but basically its a decent plot of land owned by the local council, that you can pay just £25 a year for, and you put your own shed, greenhouse, water butt etc and use to grow vegetables, tomatoes, peppers etc. So need to start preparing the land and a dual or triple compost areas seems to be recommended. Tips on getting started, what to build the bins out of, how big etc. would be most useful. I'll let you know how we get on with the vegetable crop later this year and into next year
- July 14, 2010
I put in a victory garden this year.And I started composting this year too.Just about everything I needed to know I found at aboutfrugal.com.They can teach you how to make a compost bin out of a trash can.I had so much compost (big family) that I built a spinner out of an old barrel we had.It makes the turning part so much easier.If you choose to turn or not,it does make it break down faster.I spin /turn mine once a week usually on Saturday.Hope this helps......Dena

Great job, Ang!
When I have outdoor space again, I want to try composting.
The less waste is great, but I'm VERY interested in the non-smelly trash factor.

There are a lot of books out there about composting, some of them are very complicated (I think the authors must have had way to much time on their hands and got way too involved in the whole process) and some of them are very basic and spell it out very easily how to put a compost pile together and how to get the balance right. Have just read a great Aussie one by Tim Marshall - Composting - the ultimate organic guide to recycling your garden

Oh, I agree w/ the above poster who doesn't turn! I have one of those black domed types that sit on the ground w/ a door at the bottom to scoop out and put in on top/under lid and a barrel shaped one w/ a crank...I 4get to turn... But they still compost!
New favorite simple way though is to use an old blender 4 the chunks (or not) and just dump it on and around the plants, Away from the house entry...yea, there will be knats and other insects, but the lizards and frogs appreciate that along w/ the birds if there should be any wormy things! Might as well feed everybody :)
I also use a 7gal planter and layer w/ dirt/scraps/potting soil..then plant a veggie in it nxt yr.

Wa-a-ay behind the curve here, but weighing in nonetheless. Here's my recommendation - stage your bins. This system creates a continuous feed system for the price of shoveling twice a year.
#1. New Bin. Have one bin for fresh inputs. This should be yoru largest bin. When that's full, shovel that stuff into...
#2. Intermediate Bin. As you shovel stuff into this bin, you can see if it's really wet or smelly. If it is, add some browns (I use shredded paper) as you go. This doesn't need to be a big as your New Bin. When this is full, or will be full when you put the next batch of "new" in, you're ready to create...
#3. Ready To Use Bin. Once you stuff has been composting long enough to have survived bin #1 and bin #2, it's probabably ready to use. You can get fancy and sieve your stuff as it goes into #3 (I use a milk crate, all I want to do is keep out really big pieces), or not. If you keep the bottom on this bin you'll be able to move it where you want to apply compost.
If you do this you'll have an easy to use compost system, that allows you to continually add new stuff, and only have to shovel it twice.

What do you do with extra compost? Barter it! I have been worm composting inside my downtown loft for three years(that's right - just feet from where our kids sleep - no smell!) I don't have a garden, but every couple of months I pack up my compost in yogurt containers, and the tea in wine bottles and give it to friends who do have gardens. They love it and eventually they share the fruits of their trees and gardens with me. A nice, unexpected benefit.

Must Every Journalist Act Like A Blogger?
"The journalistic culture in which columnists were the only ones allowed to have a personality, and everyone else's bylines were practically interchangeable, is practically gone," wrote Doree Shafrir in the New York Observer yesterday about how "personal branding" has infected even that holiest of holies, the New York Times. She uses the success of former 'TV Newser' turned Times blogger Brian Stelter as an example of the reversal of protocol that's recently taken place—reporters must now market themselves as specialists from the jump, instead of spending time working different beats until finding a comfortable "sincecure" later in life, in order to prevent themselves from being seen as interchangeable and therefore, redundant. The piece is exactly the kind of thinky, finger-on-pulse thing we've come to expect from Doree Shafrir, who also really likes 'The Hills'!
That's the thing about "personal branding": it might just be a new version of what used to be called "having a distinct voice." The problem comes when people (not Doree, by the way) who don't yet have distinct voices, or maybe never will have them, are forced or force themselves to develop some kind of bloggy webby "platform."
"On Oct. 13, Columbia Journalism School held a day-long workshop called 'Building A Personal Website and Your Online Brand'; the attendees were all 'working journalists.'" Doree wrote. Also, "Today, even Times reporters who are hardly household names are encouraged to set up pages on nytimes.com with a list of their Web site 'picks,' so we can get to know them better."
And per Doree, the epitome of this trend is the woman Vanessa Grigoriadis described as "the most famous young journalist in New York" in New York magazine last week. That would be Julia Allison. Julia is quoted as saying, "I looked around, and I saw that the people who were getting assignments and getting paid really nicely for it were names. They were brands ...Ultimately, you're replaceable if you're not a brand."
So it's not just that "voice" is branding. Some folks really are incredibly brand-conscious.
But while the old conventional wisdom was that this kind of behavior was "blatantly ambitious" and therefore distasteful, "Today, being 'blatantly ambitious' has different overtones; we live in an era in which we've convinced ourselves that nearly any behavior is okay, as long as we're up front about it."
Maybe we're not just talking about the rules of journalism here, but the new rules of being any kind of public person with any kind of internet presence. Where's that line between person and persona, between honesty and intentional self-branding?

Canadian PM: Oil going to U.S. one way or another
NEW YORK A controversial oil pipeline to the U.S. Gulf Coast "absolutely needs to go ahead," Canada's prime minister said Thursday, and he warned that the oil will be transported through America one way or another.
Stephen Harper addressed the Keystone XL project, a flashpoint in the debate over climate change, during a visit to New York City. The long-delayed project carrying oil from Canada's tar sands would need approval from the State Department, and Harper's remarks with the U.S. ambassador to Canada, David Jacobson, in the audience were meant to apply some pressure.
"The only real immediate environmental issue here is, do we want to increase the flow of oil from Canada by pipeline or via rail?" Harper said. He called railroad transit "far more environmentally challenging."
- Keystone pipeline temporarily shut down
- TransCanada sees delays in Keystone XL pipeline
- Is there any hope for bipartisan climate bill change
Dozens of protesters from groups including the Sierra Club chanted against the pipeline as Harper arrived at the Council on Foreign Relations.
The Obama administration is considering whether to approve the pipeline, which would carry 800,000 barrels of oil a day from Alberta across six U.S. states to the Texas Gulf Coast. A decision is expected this summer.
Republicans, and business and labor groups, have urged the Obama administration to approve the pipeline as a source of much-needed jobs and a step toward North American energy independence.
Environmental groups have been pressuring President Barack Obama to reject the pipeline, saying it would carry "dirty oil" that contributes to global warming. They also worry about a spill.
Obama's initial rejection of the pipeline last year went over badly in Canada, which relies on the U.S. for 97 percent of its energy exports.
The pipeline is critical to Canada, which needs infrastructure in place to export its growing oil sands production. The northern Alberta region has the world's third largest oil reserves, with 170 billion barrels of proven reserves.
John Manley, a former Canadian foreign minister who is now head of the Canadian Council of Chief Executives, said if Keystone XL is rejected the relationship between the Harper government and the Obama administration would be irreparably harmed.
"It would be really hard to recover from this," Manley said. "It would be quite a blow to the relationship."
A lack of pipelines and a bottleneck of oil in the U.S. Midwest have reduced the price of Canadian crude, costing oil producers and the federal and Alberta governments billions in revenue.
"I think all the facts are overwhelmingly on the side of approval of this," Harper said Thursday. He added that climate-affecting emissions from oil sands are "almost nothing globally."
Anticipating such comments, the National Resources Defense Council on Thursday announced a new Tar Sands Reality Check campaign that it launched with other environmental groups.
"Prime Minister Harper's appeal to the U.S. won't change the fact that the science has shown again and again that producing tar sands oil is much more greenhouse gas intensive than conventional oil," the NDRC's Canada director, Danielle Droitsch, wrote in a blog post Thursday.
Keith Stewart of Greenpeace Canada added in a blog post Thursday: "Rail can't replace pipelines, at least not anytime soon or without massive new rail infrastructure."
Harper seemed to dismiss the environmental protesters during comments about climate change.
"It is not a matter of just getting on a street corner and just yelling and that will somehow lead to a solution," he said.
TransCanada spokesman Shawn Howard in a statement Thursday that Harper's advocacy "helps cut through the noise and misinformation about the project. He clearly understands the importance of this project for Canada." TransCanada Corp. is now looking at a mid to late-2015 start-up for the pipeline project.
Harper's wide-ranging comments also touched on Syria and Israel.
"There's nothing more shortsighted in Western capitals in our time than the softening of support we've seen for Israel around the globe," he said, calling the country "the one stable, democratic ally in this part of the world."
On Syria, Harper urged "extraordinary caution" on the idea of arming the opposition.
"We should not fool ourselves about what's happening in Syria," he said, saying there is "brutality and extremism on both sides."
"To start talking about arming unnamed people whose objectives we don't understand, I think, is extremely risky," Harper said.

Microbes. They are invisible to the naked eye, but they play a critical role in keeping our planet habitable. They are everywhere, in abundant numbers, but are still difficult to find. They come in a multitude of varieties, but too often are difficult to distinguish from one another.
Wherever there is water (fresh or salt), there are usually microbes—microscopic, single-celled organisms. In the ocean, they form an unseen cornucopia at the center of a food web that ultimately nourishes larger organisms, fish, and people.
Their fundamental role in the ocean's food supply makes them critical targets for study, and scientists would like to know much more about them. They would like to identify them and count them. They would like to learn more about how marine microorganisms (part of what we call plankton) eat, grow, reproduce, and interact with other organisms. They would like to determine how changes in the ocean might affect the microbial communities' vitality and viability.
Finding minuscule life forms in a seemingly infinite ocean isn't trivial. But in recent years, oceanographers have been developing new techniques and instruments to identify and count marine microorganisms. Year by year, we are learning more and more about them and discovering that they are even more numerous, varied, and important than we previously thought.
Some marine microbes are bacteria, or prokaryotes—simple cells with no specialized organelles, which are among the smallest of living things. Others are eukaryotes—larger and more complex cells with a nucleus, mitochondria, and other organelles.
Eukaryotic microbes, also called protists, include both producers, such as algae, and consumers, such as protozoa. They thrive in a variety of habitats—living suspended in the water, in bottom sediments, or on other objects. They form communities, or assemblages, of different species that photosynthesize, consume each other, and are, in turn, consumed by other things in the ocean's food web.
In the last few years, we have considerably advanced our knowledge of the structure and function of these assemblages—particularly planktonic assemblages that we sample by collecting the water they inhabit. We now know that these plankton assemblages are diverse, composed of species with widely different sizes, growth rates, and nutrition. Not surprisingly, we know more about the larger protists (greater than 100 microns) than the smaller ones (under 20 microns). Larger protists are easily visible using light or electron microscopes. They have features that remain intact throughout procedures to sample, preserve, and examine them, which can break or distort cells. These features are often lacking in the smaller organisms; and if they are present, they are harder to see and characterize.
Identifying protists has always involved some type of microscopic analysis, with someone looking at the shapes, or morphology, of the cells. But now we also use molecular methods—techniques that give scientists the ability to detect and identify the presence of even small protists based upon their DNA in water samples. Scientists have begun to describe the genetic composition of communities of species that live and interact in the same water. Our next objective is to overcome several technical challenges so that we can routinely monitor changes in protist populations over time.
So far, all of our detection and identification techniques, both morphologic and molecular, have relied on collecting samples from remote sites and analyzing them in laboratories. But these techniques don't give us all the information we need.
Collecting samples from ships means physically taking separate water samples, at separate times, in separate places. Samples taken this way are, quite literally, just single samples—of one location at one time. They don't provide a continuous picture of protists in a given area of the ocean. And they don't allow us to detect how the protists respond to rapidly changing environmental conditions.
What researchers want is the ability to collect and analyze samples over long time periods in the ocean, to have a continuous sampling and recording procedure, and to obtain data in as close to real time as possible.
Several technical challenges, however, still make it difficult to remotely detect and count microbes in their own environment. One is the number of organisms, or microscopic cells, in a given water sample. In most marine planktonic environments, microbes are present in low numbers and organisms targeted for study may only be a small proportion of the total population. To overcome this low density, researchers in the laboratory must often concentrate several liters of water into a much smaller volume for analysis by passing it through filters designed to retain the protists, then resuspending them in smaller volumes for analysis.
Once water samples are collected and concentrated, microbes can be analyzed in several ways, so automated systems must be designed to accommodate the analysis method. For instance, if scientists want to use only the organisms' genetic material to identify them, collection systems must be able to break open cells and collect their DNA. If they want to study the whole organisms, though, the systems must keep the cells intact.
In fact, researchers are already developing instruments that can either detect a genetic signal from a microbial population or monitor one of its biological activities—and do it autonomously, without requiring scientists to be on the scene.
They can be pre-programmed to collect water samples over time periods ranging from hours to months and spaces ranging from inches to miles—depending on the particular microbes and biological activities the scientists want to study. These instruments inject water into flexible bags containing a solution that preserves the cells for later examination.
Three examples of instruments for remote analysis of marine microbes do solve many of the technical problems.
The Environmental Sample Processor, ESP, developed by Chris Scholin at Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI), attaches to a mooring anchored to the ocean bottom and collects and preserves water samples. It extracts nucleic acids from the protists in the water and detects specific organisms by their DNA. It can also preserve samples for microscope analysis in the laboratory. Researchers have already used it to detect species that cause harmful algal blooms and to distinguish types of planktonic larvae in the ocean. It will soon have even greater capacity to detect and distinguish organisms.
The Submersible Incubation Device, SID, a moored instrument developed by Craig Taylor at WHOI, determines levels of photosynthesis in the water around it by robotically measuring carbon dioxide taken up by phytoplankton in the samples. Up to 50 of these experiments can be performed before the instrument needs to be removed from the ocean to analyze the samples and determine what species are present.
A third instrument, FlowCytobot, is a submersible flow cytometer— a device that counts single cells flowing through it. Developed by Robert Olson at WHOI, it is also anchored to the seafloor near the coast. It counts and analyzes microbial cells in the water continuously for up to two months. FlowCytobot identifies microbes by the way they scatter light, or by the way certain pigments in the cells emit fluorescent light. Because it samples continuously, scientists can see changes in plankton populations over time that cannot be detected by traditional sampling.
The ultimate goal is a continuous, remote system that can detect, distinguish and count microbes in the environment. In the laboratory, scientists can do all these things by filtering samples, identifying DNA within them, and examining microbes under microscopes. But designing, programming, and building a system to carry out all of these steps remotely is a challenge.
One of the difficulties for this work is that DNA analysis requires heat, which requires power. Remotely deployed instruments depend on batteries for power, and adding batteries quickly makes instruments too heavy, big, and costly to build. To overcome this hurdle, scientists have sought a viable alternative; developing long-term installations of instruments powered by cables from a nearby shore.
In recent years, several coastal ocean observatories have been built that have cables linking power nodes on the ocean floor with shore-based facilities. One of these is near Woods Hole, at the Martha's Vineyard Coastal Observatory (MVCO). Instruments plugged into seafloor nodes receive power from the cables and transmit data back via the cables.
This level of available power has stimulated the development of new biological sensors and methods that will let scientists take measurements continuously and accurately.
In the lab, we are working to develop and assemble several instrument modules into the FlowCytobot automated system to install at the MVCO. The system will detect microbial cells, identify them genetically, and obtain accurate counts of particular species. It will let us monitor specific microbial populations that play significant roles in the food web and detect changes taking place, on a daily basis.
The development of new sensors is also important to national efforts to build an infrastructure of ocean observation systems. Ocean observatories are the wave of the future in many fields of oceanography. Some will monitor coastal water; others will monitor the open ocean. Many already exist, and many more are being planned, through several national programs. These programs will incorporate existing coastal observatories into a network, expanding their research capabilities, and building more at key coastal sites. We will use the observatories, each with seafloor cables supplying power, to collect and share information on a previously intractable microbial world - the broad group of tiny cells that control the coastal ocean's food supply.
Single-celled organisms are critical links in the ocean's food web. Though ubiquitous and abundant, their microscopic sizes make them hard to sample and therefore hard to study. These protists, all found in Antarctic waters, are between 20 and 100 micrometers.

Diet Foods and Drinks Can Make You Fat and Rot Your Teeth
Research on this topic is relatively new - and so far most of the testing has been done with animals. One study tested the weights of lab animals that were fed "light" yogurt containing saccharin versus the traditional sugar-sweetened variety. The animals who consumed yogurt sweetened with saccharin consumed more calories and packed on more pounds than the animals who were give the yogurt with sugar added. Why is this? Researchers believe that like humans, animal's brains are conditioned to expect sweet-tasting foods to be high in calories. When that no-calorie substitute is consumed instead, it seems to put the brain and the body in conflict. The brain thinks, "Mmmm, satisfyingly sweet." And the body insists, "Wait. This isn't working. I need more." There are already human studies that link diet soft drinks to excess weight.
If you value your pearly whites, here's another reason to avoid sodas – diet or regular. Most carbonated soft drinks wear and tear on your tooth enamel like you wouldn't believe. Whether they're full of sugar or not, bubbly drinks have some impact on tooth enamel. Citrus-flavored sodas do the most damage, followed by colas. The only exception seems to be root beer, which only causes a slight impact on tooth enamel.
It's not just the sugars in sodas that are bad for your teeth, it's the acids too. The total acid content of the soda including types like citric, phosphoric, malic, and tartaric acids affect how much damage your choppers take. They say rinsing your mouth after consuming a soda can reduce the damage, but who does that?
The good news is that you can satisfy your sweet tooth and be mindful of your calorie intake at the same time. Try piling on the berries – they're a yummy addition to cereal, yogurt or just by themselves. Berries of all kinds are great for you a full of fiber – which helps you feel full. And when you've just gotta have chocolate – think quality, not quantity. A little piece of dark chocolate can be more satisfying than a pound of the milk chocolate variety. And eaten in small quantities, dark chocolate is actually good for you.

When in doubt: go for the natural stuff.
Fruits will make your body much more of a happer camper then candy will.
A glass of tea that is lightly sweetened with nectar or regular sugar will probably make your body a happy camper then soda.
In the end, it's your body that comes first. If it's not satisfied, it'll affect you mentally, and then no one is a happy camper!
'Tis a good reminder that should be shared, I think. :) Excellento post.

Hey Tony,
By the water cooler in the office I'm working in now, there's a four-foot stack of a variety of sodas to choose from. Now, which do you think people tend to select? Soda or water? Bet you said soda! And you're right on, brutha! Man, that stack usually lasts only a couple of weeks, whereas the water is basically used only to fill up the coffee machine-;) I think we've all been conditioned through years of advertising, which insists that we drink only "what's fun, tastes and feels good."
Personally, I've taken it upon myself to become the anti-soda and sweets advocate in the office. I have a drawer full of a great selection of teas, nuts, raw veggies and 12-grain crackers. People around me are starting to catch on, occasionally asking me if they can try a tea or cracker snack. And I can only say that their reactions, for the most part, are very positive, as if a light bulb went on in their heads telling them it's ok to let go of all that deadly stuff. Heck, they may even be more "productive"!
Reality, it's a beautiful thing!

They say that the fake sugar doesn't trick your body--it makes it want real sugar even worse. Don't know if it's true, but before I started the TONY HORTON EATING PLAN, I'd drink endless amounts of coffee (with equal, not sugar) and diet pepsi (along with my buckets and buckets of water, too) and my sweet tooth was horrible. After I started the plan, I crave much less sugar--I'm drinking much less coffee (still with some, not nearly as much equal) and no diet pepsi.
Don't try to trick your budy with some things....it may not be as gullible as you think :P

- ruth said...
I couldn't agree with all of you more. I just started P90X (this morning, actually!). But I already have known for quite some time (and proven it) that you feel much better if you eat "real" food, try to avoid chemicals (not so easy) and stop eating when you no longer feel hungry. That last one is tricky. We are conditioned very early to clean that plate! And we've lost our perspective completely on portion sizes. A portion size? Usually the size of your fist. Yep! That's right. Trust me. It's true. The key: eat slowly. Value conversation first when you're with your friends. I welcome any emails about the exercise program or nutrition.

I wonder why there are some beverages and foods labeled with the word "diet" if they are containing sugar. I've read blogs about soft drinks or sodas. Well, there's nothing wrong drinking it as long as you know your limitation in drinking those. Sugar is one of the the good sources of energy. So if you have a lot of activities, sodas are useful. As I was saying, sodas are rich in sugar. If you take too much sugar, it may cause tooth decay or even gaining weight. If you don't use sugar and calories, it will only store in your body. That's why outdoor activities are good if you want to lose weight.
Last October, I went to Bay Area. Body wrap treatment is helpful in losing weight according to Liza. Through wrapping, it can reduce unwanted fats to your tummy for example. Maybe I'll go back to Bay Area. Body wraps can be effective to me, so I'll try it.

Best game ever!
My brain was astonished when I've saw for the first time this awesome piece of game. Newest tablet game from a top of the line game studio, presenting such awesome and breathtaking antagonists that I'm still stunned and consternated. Witnessing uncountable undead bugs dead, trigger invariably kicking as I was releasing a barrage of bullets from my shadowgun and tossing grenades around.
Ominous protagonist reminded me of the old Doom PC game, though Combat Trigger: Modern Dead 3D has several additional gameplay features. Our defenses gets to be customized which is the only thing that lets us progress even further into this science fiction nightmare.
Only the best stunts of modern warfare combined with an fast trigger finger will let you to succeed over the undead monsters. Cool graphics encourage you to heed your call of duty. Combat in modern style your anxiety when traversing future human locations and throwing barrages of bullets from your shadowgun, become the extreme mobile frontline commando, killing numerous like an android.
Modern warfare gets infused with dark and depressed futurism, where deep space exploration gave us only indescribable horror of having Terra occupied by dead zombie bugs. Millions of them, in fact. All hungry for our blood and our paraphernalia!
Become a frontline commando with your guns blazing, or snipe the zombie demons from great distances. All using only your tablet screen.

A budget-minded living and dining room makeover
After living with an outdated living room and a dining room that was less than ideal for the couple's love of entertaining, Candace and Fred Schiffer of Lindenhurst decided it was time to make a change. Instead of turning to a designer, they looked to a shopaholic friend. April Willi suggested nixing the dark colors for updated gray walls and neutral furniture in the living room. A table in the dining room can accommodate a dinner party but still allows Candace and Fred, a chef, to share an intimate dinner. TOTAL COST: About $15,600 -- SYLVIA E. KING-COHEN
PAINT, $1,650. Paint ($160 for four cans) is Benjamin Moore "Nimbus" in the living room and "Pebble Beach" for the dining room. Purchased from Bak & Vogel, Lindenhurst; applied by Sean Auer, Babylon.
CURTAINS, $28 (four panels). From Ikea, Hicksville.
SECTIONAL, $3,200. From Hildreth Home Goods, Southampton.
PLANT and HOLDER, $64. From Ikea.
LAMP, $29. From Marshall's, West Babylon.
GLASS NESTING TABLES, $69. From Ikea. (May 8, 2013)
CIRCULAR COFFEE TABLE, a family heirloom.
In a previous life this was Schiffer's grandfather's dining room table. They cut the legs off and added the pedestal base. "I wanted a place for the grandchildren to be able to color and play that wasn't glass," Schiffer says.
ACCENT PILLOWS, $100 (for five). Fabric from Jo-Anne's; fabrication by Schiffer's sister. (May 8, 2013)
Discounted fabric ($1) is from Jo-Anne's Fabrics and Crafts, West Babylon; all sewing done by Candace Schiffer's sister.
TWIG COAT RACK, $104. West Elm outlet. (May 8, 2013)
Designed and fabricated by Dave Myers Construction of upstate Utica.
RADIATOR CUSHIONS, $100. Fabric from Jo-Anne's; fabrication by Schiffer's sister. (May 8, 2013)
DINING TABLE and SIX CHAIRS, $900.
The table wouldn't fit through the front door, so they had to remove the window in the dining room to get it into the house. Table ($500) from Zimmerman's Home, Lindenhurst; chairs ($400) from Massapequa Dinette.
CURTAINS, $30. From Ikea. (May 8, 2013)
SHELVING and RADIATOR COVER, $3,000.

blackgoldbiofuels necesitaba un nuevo diseño de página web y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 15 diseños de 4 diseñadores freelance.
We are a cleantech start-up company looking to establish a strong brand that represents a high level of professionalism, expertise, and sophistication. Our main product is a technology that converts sewer grease into ASTM biodiesel. While our product has many positive environmental attributes we are not looking for a "going green" website that is too earthy, flowery, hippy, etc. Rather, we are seeking an aesthetic that is professional, functional, and modern. We are looking for a user-friendly website that is attractive and appeals to our target audience. We are asking for a home page and the layout for the inner pages.
Some product information / content can be found at our current website (blackgoldbiofuels.com). Since we last updated the website, however, we have refocused on our identity as a wastewater solutions provider. Our target market is the wastewater industry, we solve a waste water problem with a waste to energy solution (biodiesel). With our technology, the water utility can convert a pollution liability into a renewable energy asset. We strongly believe this product will revolutionize the market and we need a sophisticated website to accompany it.
The target audience includes potential clients (engineers, operations and management personnel in the wastewater industry), investors, politicians, and key players in the cleantech industry.
This could include:
- Municipalities (water utilities, waste water treatment plants) who want to save money, reduce their carbon footprint, and increase efficiency of operations
- Pumpers (clean out restaurant grease traps, septic tanks, etc.) who want to increase their profit
- Large food processing companies & distributors who want to reduce costs while doing something environmentally responsible
- Green-focused bloggers
- Media (print, web, tv)
- Investors (cleantech focused or water technology focused) who want to see a sophisticated business that knows their market
Please use our logo, attached. The name of our product, FOG-to-Fuel® does not need to be included with the logo; please utilize the registered symbol ® whenever you use the brand name.
Tagline: Converting our Crudest Wastes into our Cleanest Fuels
Note that unlike conventional biofuel companies, our feedstock does not come from plants /corn / soy, so please be cautious to not utilize agricultural feelings /messaging in icons / designs. Instead, we are a recycling company that addresses the water industry.
Sample sites:
http://www.Blackgoldbiofuels.com : We do not like our current website AT ALL, but there is good (but outdated) copy
http://www.biofuelbox.com: our largest competitor, but is no longer in operation. You can get a feel of the level of professionalism we are looking for from their site.
We would like to see badges for our awards included on the home page, at least the recent ones (see attached).
Include symbols that can link to our social media sites (twitter, facebook, blogger, youtube).
Link/ button to Join our mailing list page.
Scrolling news that features relevant & recent articles / stories – or some type of easily updatable asset that we can use to keep the website fresh and up to date
