A 34-year-old woman has been jailed for five years and four months for child abduction offences.
The woman, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was stopped by the Turkish authorities in October last year.
Officers believed she had travelled with the intention of living under Daesh.
The woman, from West Yorkshire, returned to the UK where she was arrested and later pleaded guilty to child abduction offences.
Det Ch Supt Clive Wain, Head of North East Counter Terrorism Unit, said: "The police together with partner agencies, including local authorities and education establishments, have a wide ranging strategy in place aimed at preventing people who intend to travel to places such as Syria and parts of Iraq.
"These areas are dangerous and any person travelling to them is putting themselves and their children at risk. The reality of life in areas of conflict is far from the image that terrorist groups actively promote to women here in the UK.
"Safeguarding children is a priority for police. We are committed to safeguarding those who are vulnerable to the rhetoric issued by Daesh. Our message is clear; contact us in order to prevent tragedies. The earlier a loved one who has concerns can contact us the sooner we can intervene."
DAC Helen Ball, senior national co-ordinator for counter terrorism, said: "Life under Daesh is no place for any child. Any mother who decides to take her children to live in a conflict zone is putting her family in grave danger.
"They are likely to witness extreme terror, become victims of violence, or, in some cases, be drawn into extremism and terrorism themselves.
"The consequences of these decisions are profound. Mothers may find themselves alone and isolated, living under an oppressive regime, often unable to leave their living quarters, let alone return home.
"Their families at home will be left devastated with very little option to secure a safe return for their loved ones; and parents themselves could find themselves in prison and losing access to their children if they are putting them in danger."
Anyone concerned about someone travelling to or returning from a conflict zone should call police on 101 or log onto www.preventtragedies.co.uk

SANTA BARBARA, Calif. – The eight UC Santa Barbara seniors had one more chance to go out with a victory in their final home game at Caesar Uyesaka Stadium.
After the Gauchos dropped their "Senior Day" game 10 days prior to Cal State Fullerton, UCSB defeated USC, 6-3 on Tuesday afternoon. The Gauchos improved to 25-27 with the win.
And, it was senior Matt Vedo who helped send off his classmates in style.
Vedo struck out seven batters in 3.2 innings pitched, moving him into fifth all-time in UCSB single-season strikeout history as he has now K'd 104 batters this season. He is one of just six pitchers in UCSB history to strike out more than 100 hitters in a single-season.
Although, Vedo wasn't the only one penning his name in Gaucho record books. Center fielder Brett Vertigan led off the fourth inning with a triple, giving him eight on the year and tying him for first place in single-season history with Wynter Phoenix (1994), Scott Cerny (1986) and Bill Geivett (1985).
It was Vertigan's triple that helped break a scoreless tie as he scored on senior Lance Roenicke's single. Marc Venning and Greg Mahle had RBI groundouts to give UCSB a 3-0 lead.
Austin Pettibone, making his first start since April 28, allowed just two earned runs in 5.1 innings as the Trojans (23-28 overall) loaded the bases against him twice and yet each time Pettibone (7-3) turned them away.
While USC struck for two runs in the sixth, the Gauchos got a run back when Venning hit a triple that right fielder Alex Sherrod lost in the sun and scored on an error. In the eighth UCSB added two insurance runs as Mahle's double scored Brandon Trinkwon and senior Joey Wallace's single brought in Mahle.
Vedo struck out pinch-hitter Sean Spray to end the game.
UCSB finishes its season with four games this coming weekend at CSU Bakersfield.

Apple's board fired Steve Jobs in the 1970s.
He went on to a company that ultimately gave us Toy Story and many other computer animated blockbuster films and another company that created what became Mac OSX.
In the meantime, Apple made a lot of money selling the Macintosh, which Steve Jobs had master-minded. When other companies, particularly Microsoft, caught up with Apple's early competitive advantage and passed it by, Apple began to founder.
I was forced to use an Apple computer for desktop publishing in the mid 1990s, and it was dreadful. I could not wait to get back to my pc. The old Mac OS couldn't do the job anymore. It was buggy and out of date.
Apple brought Steve Jobs back by buying his operating system from him. At the same time, they put him back in the company loop.
This video is the announcement of this move to bring Steve Jobs back. It begins with a totally ham-handed presentation by the man who was running Apple into the ground at that time, followed by a presentation by Steve Jobs explaining the new operating system. Jobs' presentation is followed by more ham-handedness that ends in dragging an obviously disgusted Jobs and his co-founder Steve Wozniak back on the stage for a final, underwhelming presentation.
It's long, but it's also a case study in the difference between pedestrian leadership and genius leadership. Jobs is clearly angry when he walks out on the stage. I would imagine he was embarrassed to be following such a bad act and angry about what Apple had devolved to.
How does this apply to the word "consubstantial" and the mass? It applies because Jesus deserves better than the pedestrian ugliness of the first presentation in this video. He deserves a liturgy that communicates clearly and is beautiful.
Making the mass ugly because of theological pretensions is a mistake. It is always a mistake. It is an everlasting mistake.
I keep hammering on the word consubstantial because it is so unforgivably ugly, awkward, unmelodius and downright insulting. It insults the laity with its high-handed obscurity, and it insults the mass, where heaven touches earth, with its ugliness.
I am not unhappy about or opposed to the changes in the liturgy. It doesn't bother me one bit. Guarding the liturgy is one of the Church's primary jobs. What bothers me is when the changes are a step down. The liturgy should be beautiful. It should soar and sing with our love for the God Who made us.
Consubstantial is like a brick on the prayer path of the mass that trips people and causes them to fall out of the rhythm of the worship and awe that leads them to the eucharist. People should not have to overcome the language of the mass. They should be uplifted by it.
My message to Church leadership as it is considering the new evangelization is to start speaking more directly and clearly. Talk to people instead of talking at them. You are communicating the greatest story ever told which tells the truth of the only Hope the world has ever had. Stop mumbling and talking to one another and speak out. Preach Christ.
Here's the video.

Diet Information About Carbohydrates
Glycemic Load For Dried Fruit
Note: Glycemic Load (GL) is a useful dietary tool for patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes, people with insulin resistance, or anyone who wishes to improve their blood glucose management by avoiding sugar "spikes" caused by sudden surges in blood sugar after eating high-GI foods.
Apricot (dried)
Dates (dried)
Figs (dried)
What is Glycemic Load?
While the glycemic index (GI) measures glycemic response after consuming a standard amount (50g) of useable carbohydrate from a particular food, the glycemic load (GL) ranks foods according to how much carbohydrate is in a regular serving of the food in question.
Note: If a particular food has Glycemic Load (GL) of zero, usually this is because the food contains little or no carbs (eg. meat, fish, cheese, eggs etc.). Where very few variations of a food type are listed, this is because very few variations have been "tested" to determine their GI value.
GI and Weight Management
One aim of Dr Atkins diet, South Beach, Zone and other low carb diets, was the reduction of refined carbohydrate in the daily diet, in order to reduce weight and improve insulin function. GI diets go one step further - they provide only healthy carbohydrate, so you lose weight and eat only nutrient-dense carbs.

December 8 - Walter Ciszek, Prisoner, Priest, Seed Planted in the Gulag
"Walter, have you heard that Lubyanka is the tallest building in Moscow?" asked Walter's fellow prisoner," they say you can see Siberia from the basement." It had been meant as a joke to relieve some of the mundane and oppressive tension that highlighted the lives and days of the prisoners in Lubyanka. Walter laughed but it might be because of the absurdity of it all and his growing need for companionship with other people. Walter was primarily kept in solitary confinement while at Lubyanka even though he was no physical threat to the other prisoners or the guards. He was confined for the purposes of cruelty and restricted on a whim. He had come a long way from the small Polish family in Shenandoah, Pennsylvnia, in the United States of America. Even now his family wondered what had happened to Walter. He had not led an exemplary life in the United States but his family still dearly missed him and prayed daily for his safe return. Regrettably, though, they were increasingly convinced that he would never return and was likely no longer alive. When he had left the life of a gang member behind to become a Jesuit priest, they had assumed that his life was taking steps in the direction of safety and security. But then he had accepted a calling.
Walter heeded the desperate call by the pope for priests to become missionaries to Russia in the early twentieth century. It was not an especially safe time for men to immigrate to Russia but the Church seized upon the opportunity and soon he found himself in Rome studying to become a priest while also learning the Russian language and history. When he arrived in Russia, he became a logger and got to work becoming part of a culture that was not his own. In his spare time, he began hearing confession and saying mass in secret. The Soviet State had no room for Christians and was quick to isolate them from others. Perhaps the Soviets had learned from the actions of Rome and knew that the Christian story was contagious and would continue to spread--maybe even faster-- as you tried to kill Christians to silence them. So, instead of killing Walter, they arrested him and threw him into one of their most secure prisons. This hadn't been enough and he continued to share his faith with the people he met and eventually they were forced to further restrict him. In an act of desperation, they ordered him sent to one of the many Gulag camps. It seems that they truly could see Siberia from the basement at Lubyanka.
In this attempt to silence Walter, they only firmly planted a seed in frozen Russian soil. They had dropped him into the camp expecting him to give up and eventually die from exhaustion and exposure. He was among prisoners of all different types and crimes. Some had been sent to the camp for speaking out against the government--even as little as telling a joke that was deemed disrespectful of the State--or being too closely related to somebody who had been marked for exile. Children, women, and men labored in the cold to support the State and save their own necks. Yet, Walter still heard confession and held services in the camp. In their attempt to isolate Walter, the State had only given him a larger audience and nurtured the tiny plant that was Walter's ministry in Russia.
Even after he was released from the camp and moved between other cities, he continued to offer ministry and aid to those who were seeking it. He wrote to his family for the first time in nearly fifteen years and they were surprised and overjoyed to learn that the brother and son whom they had presumed dead was alive--the one they thought lost had been found. His release was eventually negotiated by the United States of America so that he might come home and a Soviet spy and his wife might return to Russia. Even as he was being released, the Soviets still considered him a spy and failed to understand that he had been a missionary for a Kingdom that is not of this world. After twenty-three years of imprisonment he was reunited with his family and lived the remainder of his days as a minister in Pennsylvania. Twenty-five years ago, today, he died.

Love the asymmetrical hair. For better detail, click to enlarge.

On The Street….About the Hair, New York
CommentsClose comment
24 comments
Like the hair, too, not to mention the slightly tilted head and coy-ish expression.
Otherwise, rather standard-issue….
I do like the hair, I like that it's not an extreme asymmetry, and i like his jacket too.
I have a feeling this hairstyle is gonna go out of style really fast. It's one of those things that you'll look back on in 10 years and think "what was I thinking?!"
Also, his outfit is a pretty basic hipster look.
yeah, an average look…but I sure as hell wish my average was that good.
love the hair, and the colors all go well together (the clothes and even the shades/tints on his great shoes compliment his skin and hair colors well).
about those shoes…i've been looking for some keds-esque kicks, and i like that his are high tops. someone suggested K-mart…any suggestions?
i like the jacket. you should do a new york lookbook kind of thing and ask people where they get their garments. and then post it.
He's adorable and I do like the asymmetrical haircut. I also like how the extreme whiteness of his shoes contrast with the neutrality of the rest of his outfit.
Isn't he the kid from Ugly Betty?
This boy is adorable! Not sure if I'd rather be his mommy or his girlfriend. Love the hair, the expression, the casual teenager outfit! A guy with style!
I agree that this is a pretty generic look.
The whole look is great… I think he looks just adorable!
This is a really nice guy I don't want to say where he works but anyone who wears the clothes would recognize his shirt and jacket are from there.
this geezer works for g-star in new york on lafayette and spring street
looks like all the young men in know in miami
the hair is fine, but what's really remarkable is the oustanding fit of his clothes.
Okay but you MUST appreciate that he's carried the "cocked" look down to the pockets and to his photo pose!
Average geezer? I dunno. He was brilliant today.
the shoes are springcourts from france and have mint scented insoles. anyone who works for g-star is a geezer.
I am such a geezer thank you for the comments it has made me feel quite bashful…..lol blush blush… thank you again…..geez WTF!
I really don't understand what is so special about his hair.
I wonder if you didn't mentioned the word "hair", people won't talk that much about it.
SOO cute… im loving the whole look. the haircut is really hot, i havent seen this look around before.
What a cutie patootie! Love everthying about this guy!
Cool Jacket. Guy's POV here.
Hot style. I'm not really into guys, but he might be able to turn me. He needs to shave that peach fuzz though.
What a cutie!!!
hi charlie..
youre famous!

Afghan politicians seek steps now for fair election
KABUL -- Afghan political aspirants say the election to replace President Hamid Karzai will only result in unrest if something is not done now to ensure its results are untainted by fraud.
Former presidential candidate and long-time Karzai rival, Abdullah Abdullah said in an interview with USA TODAY that he has yet to decide if he will run in the election, not scheduled to take place until the spring of 2014.
But he says already he sees problems. Among them is the extreme difficulty he would have trying to campaign in the mountainous north where most ethnic Tajiks who make up his base reside.
"How can one even campaign in those parts of the country in the winter?" he asks, explaining that many mountain passes and roads will still be blocked by ice and snow in springtime.
Abdullah withdrew from the 2009 second-round election runoff amid widespread accusations of pro-Karzai vote-rigging, fraud and election poll intimidation. The United Nations was among the critics of the vote.
Abdullah says the next president will face enormous challenges to keeping his country stable and democratic, something U.S. and allied troops have fought and died for over the past 10 years.
Among the problems to rectify: top-to-bottom government corruption. The country's next president must reform a notoriously corrupt judiciary and allow provincial governors to be elected rather than appointed by the president as they are now.
Ending financial corruption is also a factor for a stable future, he says.
A review released by the International Monetary Fund said that hundreds of millions of dollars from Kabul Bank were smuggled out of Afghanistan — some packed inside airline food trays loaded onto international flights to be deposited in bank accounts in more than two dozen countries.
Loans were made but rarely repaid, the report said. Borrowers took out loans to pay back loans. Company documents and financial statements were fabricated. The smuggling scheme led to the collapse of the bank, the nation's largest financial institution.
"The biggest challenge is that the absence of the rule of law is now the rule of law in Afghanistan," says Abdullah, who previously served under Karzai and is now a critic of his administration.
Several critics accuse Karzai of ignoring the needs of the majority of Afghans for the benefit of family and business associates. Karzai, who is serving his second five-year term, said that corruption is due to the way NATO and the United States have set up the contracting process in Afghanistan.
"The contracts are not issued by the Afghan government. The contracts are issued by the international community, mainly by the United States," he said. "Now whether this corruption in Afghanistan is an accident, a byproduct of the situation in the past 10 years or is it perpetrated also on purpose is today my main question."
Karzai said Thursday he will meet President Barack Obama in Washington next month to discuss a U.S. role in his country in the future.
"Give us a good army, a good air force and a capability to project Afghan interests in the region," Karzai said.
Dark horse contender Mirwais Yasini, a member of parliament from Nangarhar province in eastern Afghanistan, says that if Afghanistan holds a "fair, transparent election, then I'll be there."
Yasini ran in 2009, coming in fifth among a field of nearly 40 candidates, and says it will be hard for him or anyone not favored by Karzai to prevail because they will not have access to much in the way of campaign funds.
"I am not a corrupt person so it will be difficult for me to raise as much money as other candidates," Yasini says.
Yasini sees the main issues as persistent security concerns and a lack of a viable, self-sustaining economy outside the illicit opium trade.
"Right now we are living off of other taxpayers," he says referring to the billions of dollars in international aid contributed by international donors, most notably the United States.
Yasini, like Abdullah, expresses concern about the legitimacy of the 2014 election were it to resemble the previous presidential election in 2009. The International Crisis Group, a conflict-resolution think tank, agrees.
"It is a near certainty that under current conditions the 2014 elections will be plagued by massive fraud," reads a recent Crisis Group report. "High levels of violence across the country before and on the day of the polls are likely to disenfranchise hundreds of thousands more would-be voters."
The group says the previous elections' chaos and chicanery risk triggering a constitutional crisis and erode trust in the democratic institutions that the USA and others have spent billions of dollars to build.
"In the current environment, prospects for clean elections and a smooth transition are slim," it said, referring to the possibility that Karzai may act to ensure his family maintains some power.
Among the potential candidates are Karzai's elder brother Quayum Karzai, an elected official in Afghanistan and a businessman in the USA. Afghanistan's education minister, Ghulam Farooq Wardak, a Karzai appointee, could earn the president's endorsement as well.
Former Karzai ally Mohammad Hanif Atmar, the country's one-time interior minister, has said he may run as has Ashraf Ghani Ahmadzai, an Ivy League graduate, and former officials at the World Bank and United Nations.
No matter who runs, Abdullah says they must face up to the problem of continued militancy. By the time the election rolls around, all U.S. combat troops will have left the country under current plans of President Obama.
But Abdullah said he believes it won't be insurgents who can take down what they have spent years building.
"The main challenge for security won't come just from the Taliban," he says. "Corruption can turn this country into a failed state."

Muv-Luv Franchise - Requests for new threads
Since the Total Eclipse/Muv-Luv forum is limited (only Mods and Admin can create new threads), this thread serves as a way to request a new thread to be created.
Please post here if you wish to request a new Total Eclipse/Muv-Luv thread. Please bear in mind that we will only accept reasonable requests, we wish to maintain the focus within the forum and cut down on the noise (so no pointless threads cluttering up the place).
Don't forget that you may still post in existing threads as usual, the only restriction is that you may not create new threads within this particular forum.

Hmmm... I'd like to make a request. Can we have a music and music videos thread? There are numerous well-made videos up in youtube that Muv-Luv fans might enjoy watching after reading the novels. The problem is that most of them are not safe for the anime-only viewers. There are also soundtracks that are worth discussing.

I'm not sure if this should count as a "new" request or not; but will the Kimi ga Nozomu Eien sub-forum remain where it is, or should its contents be integrated here?

The two forums won't be integrated, as there is so much old stuff in the other forum that doesn't need to be revived or revisited. Even though they're in the same broader universe, they're substantially different works. It can be understood that there is a connection between the two.

Would it be viable to create a threads for each major title of the series, to allow for specific discussion within that title? I'll list a series of the titles here.
Muv-Luv Extra
Muv-Luv Supplement
(its a continuation of MLE, but can be linked back)
Muv-Luv Unlimited
Muv-Luv Unlimited: The Day After
(its a continuation of MLU, deserves its own thread)
Muv-Luv Alternative
Muv-Luv Alternative Chronicles Chicken Divers
Muv-Luv Alternative Chronicles Rain Dancers
Muv-luv Alternative Chronicles Adoration
Muv-Luv Alternative Chronicles Rebirth
Muv-Luv Alternative Chronicles Atonement
Muv-Luv Alternative Chronicles Succession
(All are short stories linked to MLA, suggest a thread to cover all these)
Muv-Luv Alternative: Total Eclipse
Muv-Luv Alternative: The Euro Front
Muv-Luv Altered Fable
Ayu-Mayu Alternative
Schwarzesmarken (already has a thread)
Owarinaki Natsu, Towa Naru Shirabe (its a somewhat prequel)

By "sub-forum", I assume you mean thread. This whole section is a "sub-forum".
I'm really not sure if we really need so many threads right now. Besides, the primary focus of this sub-forum right now is on the Total Eclipse anime (that's why it's in the Anime Discussion forum). I don't think it should be so drowned up with so many game threads. Is there really so much discussion on each of these titles that they all warrant a separate thread?
(And Owarinaki is really only extremely peripherally related. I think it's a stretch to put it here.)
So anyway, I'm going to hold off for now. We'll see what specific works really need a thread.

Sure, lets wait and see how much discussion appears. So far there's been some inferences and citations from these series, and I was just wondering if one or two more threads should be enough to cater to those wishing to discuss the side stories.
Lets see how the new threads do first though, seems to have done the job of diversifying the discussions into proper channels.

If anything I think the threads (not subforums), should indeed be made in this point of time, as the anime's episode by episode threads will bury them to the second page if there is no interest in these threads and the official games follow a format similar to fate, higurashi and umineko to name similar franchises.
If the anime makes people start playing the individual games, like , let's say some decide to play extra while others decide to skip directly to alternative, it would be great to have them separate.

Regarding the split of the game thread... I'm personally still not decided about how to do it or the merits of the various approaches. So at the moment, I'm still thinking about it. Maybe someone else in the staff will have an idea of the best way.
Regarding the "cross-over speculation and discussion"... I guess I'm not too clear on how this will work here, even though I looked at Nanoha as an example. Could you post an example topic starting post that explains the purpose of the thread so I can get a better idea of what would be considered on-topic in such a thread?

Based on some chatter in the Image Thread, I'd like to suggest a "Survival in a BETA Infested World" thread.
The general gist would be discussion of life expectancy, survival strategies both serious and not, and how badly humanity is fucked.

Here is a short teaser for a long-form film I'm making for Cat Power. The
film stars Jade and Hazel Altheide, two female teenage BMX riders who live
just outside of Albuquerque, New Mexico. As you will see they both totally
rip. This production has a pretty funny story actually. On a Thursday
morning in September I got a call from Gaby Basora, who designs a really
cool fashion line from New York called Tucker. I had never met Gaby or
her team before. They proceeded to tell me about these two girls they had
heard about in New Mexico who ride BMX bikes and how they were great and
really stylish and would I be interested in going to make a movie about
them. There was a catch though. We needed to start shooting the next day!
None of us had ever met Jade and Hazel or their family, and really had no
idea what the landscape in New Mexico would be like, but heck, I'm always
down for an adventure. I agreed to do it and the next morning we were on a
plane with cameras and gear to go shoot this movie. I had no idea what it
was gonna be.
Cat Power NOTHIN' BUT TIME (Teaser) by Aaron Rose from Aaron Rose on Vimeo.
When we arrived, we met the Altheide family, quickly got our gear together
and hit the trails. All I can say is wow! The girls were absolutely
beautiful and the surrounding landscape (as you can see) was beyond
magnificent. Coincidentally, as we were making this, Cat Power had
Just dropped her new record SUN. I was listening to it on the rental car
Radio as we cruised through the mountains of New Mexico and it just really
fit the vibe of what we were making. If you've ever been to NM, you know
How much sun they have…TONS! The song featured in this video is called
"Nothin' But Time" and I think it just fits perfectly. The way Chan screams
"I wanna live!" just fits the freedom of jumping bikes and bombing down
hills so perfectly. It was a match made in heaven. The upcoming long-form
film will include the entire eleven minute version of "Nothin' But Time".
We're making it now. So excited to get this out. Stay tuned.

The Adventures of a Stubborn Grandmother
From StoryCorps, a funny, poignant interview between a strong-willed woman, her son, and her granddaughter.
Kay Wang was a strong-willed grandmother who was reluctantly taken to a StoryCorps booth by her son and granddaughter. Though Kay resisted, she still had stories to tell—from disobeying her mother and rebuffing suitors while growing up in China to late-life adventures as a detective for Bloomingdale's department store. Kay passed away just weeks after that interview, and her son and granddaughter returned to StoryCorps to remember her gentler side, which she kept to herself.

Digital Advertising
Understanding how content is sold and consumed across your digital properties isn't easy. There are lots of questions (about revenue drivers, ad inventory, sales rep performance, etc.), but answers are hard to come by. That's because data is often stored in multiple systems, making it difficult to get a holistic view of business performance.
This interactive SAS Visual Analytics report provides fast insight on advertisers, inventory, campaigns and more by making it easy for you to view and analyze digital media performance across all channels and properties.

Flipping a car for profit is one part science, one part art form. The science is in identifying one that can be salvaged, and the art is in re-tooling it to look and perform like new. If you can't balance those elements, you won't make much money flipping cars.
Jeff Allen, the star of CNBC's "The Car Chasers," has been striking this balance for years. As the owner of Flat 12 Gallery in Lubbock, Tex., he buys, restores and sells classic cars. He has no guarantee whatsoever that he will find a buyer, or even make back the cost of getting a car to his shop from a faraway city. But he consistently earns top dollar for his flips, so he must be doing something right.
He doesn't do it all on his own. Restoration artist Perry Barndt makes sure each detail is painstakingly restored, and technician Eric Ables has been known to bring even the most hopeless engine back to life. Last but not least, his fiancee of 18 years, Meg Bailey, runs the shop's day-to-day operations, which includes making sure that once a car is restored, it gets sold, no matter how much Allen has fallen in love with it and wants to keep it.
What follows is a list of 10 memorable flips from Flat 12 Gallery's history. All of them were discovered in states of extreme disrepair, restored to perfection and sold for a profit. Allen has provided his recollections of the circumstances that marked each car's transformation from junkyard find to collector's item.
Read ahead to see 10 restored cars that turned major profits.
"The Car Chasers" airs Tuesdays 10 p.m. EST/PST

The prevalence of serum antibodies to Ehrlichia ruminantium infection in ranch cattle in Tanzania: A cross-sectional study
E S SwaiI; P F MtuiI; A K Chang'aII; G E MachangeI
IVeterinary Investigation Centre, PO Box 1068, Arusha, Tanzania
IIHerd Health Division, Manyara Ranch, PO Box 2658, Arusha, Tanzania
Serum samples collected in a cross-sectional survey of grazing cattle on Manyara Ranch, Monduli district, Tanzania, were tested by indirect major antigenic protein 1 fragment B (MAP 1-B) ELISA to determine the seroprevalence of Ehrlichia ruminantium and to assess ranch-level risk factors for heartwater. Heartwater-exposed cattle were widespread on the ranch and overall seroprevalence was 50.3% (95% CI, 44.9 ‐55.6), enough to indicate an endemically unstable situation. Multivariate logistic regression modelling was used to identify risk factors associated with seropositivity. Two factors appeared to increase the herd's riskfor contracting heartwater. Seroprevalence increased significantly with age (ß =0.19 per year of age, P <0.001) and animals carrying ticks of any species were associated with an increased risk of infection with E. ruminantium (Odds ratio, OR =3.3, P <0.001). The force of infection based on the age seroprevalence profile was estimated at 18 per 100 cattle year-risk. The current tick control measures on the ranch were associated with a decreased risk of infection with E.ruminantium (OR =0.25 for no dipping and OR =0.31 for low dipping, P <0.001). Six tick species were identified; in order of frequency these were: Ambylomma variegatum 59.9%, Rhipicephalus evertsi evertsi 13.9%, Rhipicephalus pulchellus 12.5%, Hyalomma truncatum 7.03% and Rhipicephalus appendiculatus 6.07%. The least encountered tick was Rhipicephalus simus, which accounted for 0.38%. The cattle seemed well adapted to their environment and capable of resisting the tick burden under this extensive wildlife/livestock grazing and interaction system.

The National Rifle Association slammed Vice President Joe Biden and the White House gun violence task force following the pair's meeting today.
In a statement released after the meeting, the NRA said that the meeting had little to do "with keeping our children safe" and was part of an "agenda to attack the Second Amendment."
Here's the NRA's full statement:
The National Rifle Association of America is made up of over 4 million moms and dads, daughters and sons, who are involved in the national conversation about how to prevent a tragedy like Newtown from ever happening again. We attended today's White House meeting to discuss how to keep our children safe and were prepared to have a meaningful conversation about school safety, mental health issues, the marketing of violence to our kids and the collapse of federal prosecutions of violent criminals.
We were disappointed with how little this meeting had to do with keeping our children safe and how much it had to do with an agenda to attack the Second Amendment. While claiming that no policy proposals would be "prejudged," this Task Force spent most of its time on proposed restrictions on lawful firearms owners - honest, taxpaying, hardworking Americans. It is unfortunate that this Administration continues to insist on pushing failed solutions to our nation's most pressing problems. We will not allow law-abiding gun owners to be blamed for the acts of criminals and madmen. Instead, we will now take our commitment and meaningful contributions to members of congress of both parties who are interested in having an honest conversation about what works - and what does not.
Earlier on Thursday, Biden said that he would present his recommendations on curbing gun violence to the President by next Thursday. He also outlined some of the proposals, some of which do not play well with the NRA.
Biden said that there were some recommendations that had come up repeatedly in his meetings with different groups — closing the so-called "gun show loophole" and instituting universal background checks. He also mentioned a possible limit on high-capacity magazines, as well as improving the "ability of any federal agency to do research on gun violence.
"I have a real very tight window to do this," he added. "The public wants us to act."
Biden also met with sporting groups earlier on Thursday to discuss combating gun violence. He will meet later Thursday evening with representatives of the entertainment industry.
UPDATE (6:55 p.m.): NRA President David Keene gave a similar take on the meeting while appearing tonight on CNN. He said that the White House and Biden, "in a sense, were checking a box" so that they could say they were reaching out to groups like the NRA. He said there was "no common ground" on guns between the two sides.
"We are not going to agree on these gun questions," he said.

If you use ESPN.com for fantasy football and use an Android phone, you now have an app to manage your teams. Unlike last year, when ESPN charged 5 bucks for the app, the 2011 version is free.
You can manage multiple leagues, follow your pretend game in real-time, add/drop/trade players and gives you push notifications to keep you on your toes. If you want to win the championship, you'll need this app (especially when your girlfriend drags you out on a precious Sunday in December). [Android Market]

The list for the class of 2010 will be cut to 15 finalists Jan. 7, and the selection committee will announce the inductees Feb. 6, the day before the Super Bowl.
Modell's candidacy has been a hot-button issue with voters because of his unpopular relocation of the Cleveland Browns to Baltimore in February 1996.
Modell was a finalist for the Hall of Fame in 2001. Since then, he has been a semifinalist in 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2009 and 2010.
The Ravens' majority owner from 1996 to 2004, Modell sold the team to Steve Bisciotti, retaining minority owner status.
Former Ravens tight end Shannon Sharpe, a finalist for the class of 2009, is also among the semifinalists.
Emmitt Smith and Jerry Rice are considered the only locks in the class of 2010.
The other 21 semifinalists: wide receiver Cliff Branch; wide receiver-returner Tim Brown, receiver Cris Carter; coach Don Coryell; running back Roger Craig; running back Terrell Davis; center Dermontti Dawson; defensive end Richard Dent; defensive end-linebacker Chris Doleman; linebacker-defensive end Kevin Greene; guard Russ Grimm; punter Ray Guy; defensive end-linebacker Charles Haley; cornerback Lester Hayes; linebacker Rickey Jackson; defensive tackle Cortez Kennedy; defensive tackle John Randle; receiver Andre Reed; former NFL commissioner Paul Tagliabue; special teams ace Steve Tasker; and cornerback Aeneas Williams.

The Yale Cancer Center T-TARE Program provides support of up to $200,000 for groups of between three and five investigators headed by a member of the Cancer Center, for research with a significant translational or clinical component, with the express purpose of developing a multi-investigator grant submission to the National Cancer Institute, such as a Program Project Grant or SPORE grant.
Grant Review Process
The primary objectives of the T-TARE awards are to promote translational research and to facilitate collaborations between physicians and scientists. Consistent with these objectives, the review process of the proposals will be collaborative among physicians and scientists. Two individuals – one physician and one scientist – will be assigned to review two proposals and to score the merit of each proposal on a scale of 1 – 9 (1 = lowest/best score, 9 = highest/worst score) according to the criteria defined below. Following review and scoring, each review "team" will present a summary of the proposal and the results of the review to an executive committee, which will determine final funding decisions.
Review criteria:
1. Potential for project developing into a multi-investigator grant proposal within one year
2. Translational potential (overall and within three year time period)
3. Scientific merit/clinical feasibility
4. Strength of collaborative team (scientific strength, successful funding/publication record, commitment to clinical investigation, prior evidence of team interaction)
5. Strength of senior leadership (funding/publication track record)
T-TARE Awarded to Head & Neck Cancers Program - July 1, 2016 - June 30, 2017
A new Translational Targeted Area of Research Excellence (T-TARE) grant has been awarded to the Head & Neck Cancers Program, led by Dr. Barbara Burtness and Dr. Wendell Yarbrough, to support their translational research efforts. Drs. Burtness and Yarbrough are actively working on a SPORE submission for Head and Neck Cancers to the NCI and the T-TARE grant funding will provide the resources needed to fund pilot projects and team science to strengthen their application.

Did you know that October is Polish-American Heritage Month? Although the month is nearly half over, there is still plenty of time to celebrate. This weekend I'll be speaking at conference by the Polish Genealogical Society of Connecticut and the Northeast (PGSCTNE). I'm sure we'll have a lot of fun discussing Polish genealogy. But if you're not Polish, don't feel left out – there are a lot of ways to celebrate Polish-American Heritage Month even if you are not lucky enough to be Polish-American! And so I present…
The Top Ten Ways to Celebrate Polish-American Heritage Month – If You're Polish or Not!
1. Read Polish literature. Henryk Sienkiewicz won the Nobel Prize in 1905 for his achievements as an epic writer – try With Fire and Sword, the first of an epic trilogy. Or read literature about Poland, such as the historical novel by American James C. Martin, Push Not the River.
2. See a Polish movie. Try Three Colours (Polish: Trzy kolory), the collective title of the trilogy directed by Krzysztof Kieślowski.
3. Eat Polish food (and drink). Who wouldn't want some pierogi? Or kruschiki? Just be careful of too much vodka when learning these recipes.
4. Learn to Polka. It's a lot of fun – and great exercise, too!
5. Visit Poland virtually on tv or the internet. PBS travel hosts Rick Steves and Burt Wolf have both visited Polish cities. Or try some YouTube videos such as this one.
6. Learn about Poland's history. Poland has a long, rich history.
7. Celebrate your name day. Birthdays are overrated, but name days are fun!
8. Wish someone "sto lat" on their birthday. Or sing it to them instead!
9. Read a biography of a famous Pole. Try Witness to Hope if you're a fan of Pope John Paul II or The Peasant Prince about Tadeusz Kościuszko and his role in the American Revolution.
10. Learn more about Polish customs. From art to clothing to holiday traditions, Poland has a custom for everything.
Tomorrow I will continue this post with the Top Ten Genealogical Ways to Celebrate Polish-American Heritage Month. Some of the things might interest non-Poles, but you'll get more out of it if you're actually Polish. And if you're not, you'll want to be. Really…

C-terminal V5 epitope tag bacterial expression plasmid. This vector allows the creation of tagged proteins with a 3C cleavage tag.
Product Name: pSF-OXB20-COOH-3C-V5
Product Code: OG3511
Size (bp): 3920 bp
Bacterial Antibiotic Selection: KanR
Origin and Compatibility: pUC high copy derived from pBR322
Bacterial Copy Number: 500-700 per cell
Promoter: OXB20 strong constitutive bacterial promoter
This plasmid is designed to express tagged proteins in E.coli. The plasmid contains a constitutive promoter (OXB20) derived from the region upstream of the E.coli RecA gene. It does not require induction or any additional components for activity. It is the strongest of the bacterial promoters that we provide and this high level of expression can cause expression problems with some proteins with poor solubility. For this reason we sell a range of bacterial promoters with different expression levels (OXB1(low)>OXB20(high)) that can be provided with the peptide tags in this plasmid on request.About the Cleavage Tag:
This plasmid also encodes a protease cleavage site that is designed to be positioned between your gene of interest and the tag to allow the removal of the tag following protein purification or isolation. This plasmid contains a 3C cleavage tag. The protein sequence of the cleavage tag is: LEVLFQ?GP. Human Rhinovirus (HRV) 3C Protease is a highly specific protease that cleaves between the Glu and Gly residues of its recognition site. It is often produced with the tradename PreScission protease.
For more information on which cleavage tag to use see our cleavage tag guide.Promoter Expression Level:
This plasmid contains a constitutive bacterial promoter that does not require induction. It is the strongest bacterial promoter we sell and this can cause solubility and expression problems with some proteins. We also offer a range of other bacterial promoters that are compatible with this plasmid and are available on request.
About the Peptide Tag:
This plasmid contains a c-terminal V5 epitope tag that can be fused to a gene of interest to allow protein detection and/or purification. The sequence of the tag is: GKPIPNPLLGLDST
For more information on the methods that can be used to purify proteins please see our protein tag guide.
This plasmid contains three alternative transcription terminators for mammalian bacterial and bacteriophage (T7) expression. This means that only the promoter needs to be changed to alter the expression system you are using. We sell multiple promoters that can be used in each of these systems. The presence of each terminator does not reduce expression in the alternative systems.
This plasmid has been designed to allow three types of cloning into the main MCS to join a coding sequence with the tag.SnapFusion Cloning:
If you would like to fuse your coding sequence to the tag with minimal additional bases you can use our SnapFusion technology. This process involves amplifying your gene by PCR to add specific restriction sites onto the ends. When these sites are cut they produce an overhang that is compatible with this plasmid cut with BseRI or BsgI.To insert your gene:
1: Amplify your gene with primers designed using this spreadsheet
2: Cut the plasmid with either BseRI or BsgI.*
3: Cut your gene with the enzyme you added using the spreadsheet (any of AcuI BpmI BpuEI BseRI BsgI EciI).
4: Clone the gene into the plasmid using DNA ligase.
Using this method with an N-terminal tag plasmid will result in the tag coding sequence immediately followed by your genes ATG start codon at the join. This results in a seamless fusion of the two sequences with no extra bases being added. Using this method on C-terminal tag plasmids will convert your genes stop codon into a TAC (Tyr Y) codon followed by the plasmid tag coding sequence. This results in no extra bases between your gene and the tag. See the diagram below for more information.
*Please note that insect expression plasmids cannot be cut with BsgI only BseRI because of unavoidable conflicting sites in the backbone. Also Yeast plasmids can only be cut with BsgI not BseRI because of conflicting sites in the backbone.
Using this technique will create a gene fragment that can be ligated into any or our >1500 peptide and reporter tag plasmids. If you use one of the other techniques below (Gibson InFusion Seamless or LIC) you will need new primers for every vector you clone into because the arms of homology will change according to the tag plasmid you are cloning into.
If you find that your gene sequence has sites in it that make using this cloning strategy difficult you can still use one of the alternative methods below (e.g. standard cloning or Gibson cloning).
Open the Primer Design Tool to help you design primers for cloning your gene in our SnapFusion technique.Standard Enzymes:
If you are not concerned about leaving a few extra bases between the tag coding sequence and your gene you can clone your gene into the vector using standard cloning restriction enzymes. This strategy will require you to choose which enzymes you want to use to clone your gene.
Open the Primer Design Tool which provides primers with different enzyme choices positioning your gene as close to the tag as possible in each case. Please note that standard enzymes will always leave additional nucleotides between your gene and the tag but using the spreadsheet will ensure the tag and gene are in frame.Gibson cloning/InfusionHD/GeneArt Seamless/Ligase Independent Cloning (LIC) Methods:
These cloning techniques use reagents sold by other companies and allow you to fuse sequences together using enzymes that chew back the DNA to leave overlapping ends/overhangs. The subsequent method of joining the DNA depends on the kit used. To use one of these techniques you can either design your own primers or you can use the spreadsheet below to help with the design.
Open the Primer Design Tool to help you design primers for cloning your gene using Gibson assembly InfusionHD GeneArt Seamless cloning or Ligase Independent Cloning (LIC) techniques.

Insects and Halloween just seem to go together.
What would Halloween be like without costumes depicting honey bees, ladybugs, butterflies, bumble bees, and just plain bugs?
And maybe a few termites, roaches, bed bugs and stink bugs tossed in for good measure?
The Bohart Museum of Entomology at the University of California, Davis, annually hosts two pre-Halloween open houses. One, sponsored by the Bohart Museum Society, is for donors, Entomology Department affiliates, and other invited guests. The other, hosted by the museum itself, is open to all as part of its education, teaching and public service mission.
Spiders--although not insects--are wildly popular at these functions. Spider decorations dangle from the ceiling and painted images adorn faces.
Among the most interesting "bug" costumes showing up at the Bohart last week: a monarch butterfly outfit donned by Maia Lundy of Davis Senior High School, an intern at the Bohart; and a black widow spider costume worn by Tabatha Yang, the museum's outreach and education coordinator. Tabatha and her husband, Louie Yang, assistant professor of entomology at UC Davis, are expecting their first child.
Kara Handy of Davis dressed as a witch, and a beautiful witch at that, with a stunning spider web accenting one eye.
Another guest, carrying an insect net, creatively presented herself as a pinned specimen. (Back in 2010, graduate student Matan Shelomi dressed as Billy the Exterminator.)
The Bohart Museum, located at 1124 Academic Surge on Crocker Lane (formerly California Drive) will be open for more weekend open houses during the 2012-2013 academic year. These open houses are free and open to the public.
The schedule includes:
Sunday, Nov. 18, 1 to 4 p.m. Theme: "Insect Societies"
Saturday, Dec. 15, 1 to p.m. Theme: "Insects in Art"
Sunday, Jan. 13, 1 to 4 p.m. Theme: "Extreme Insects"
Saturday, Feb. 2, 1 to 4 p.m. Theme: "Biodiversity Museum Day"
Sunday, March 24, 1 to 4 p.m. Theme: "Aquatic Insects"
Saturday, April 20 (10 a.m. to 3 p.m., UC Davis Picnic Day)
Saturday, May 11, 1 to 4 p.m. Theme: "Moth-er's Day"
Sunday, June 9, 1 to 4 p.m. Theme: "How to Find Insects"
The Bohart Museum, directed by Lynn Kimsey, professor of entomology at UC Davis, houses a global collection of nearly eight million insect specimens and is the seventh largest insect collection in North America. It is also the home of the California Insect Survey, a storehouse of the insect biodiversity. Noted entomologist Richard M. Bohart (1913-2007) founded the museum in 1946.
The insect museum includes a gift shop and a live "petting zoo," complete with Madagascar hissing cockroaches, walking sticks and a rose-haired tarantula that you can hold and photograph.
The Bohart's regular hours are from 9 a.m. to noon and from 1 to 5 p.m., Monday through Thursday. It is closed to the public on Fridays and on major holidays. Admission is free.

1. New Orleans: Anthony Davis F, Kentucky: No explanation needed. NBA star in the making. Defensive game like Camby, offensive game similar to Garnett.
2. Charlotte: Brad Beal G, Florida: I think this pick goes to the Cavs for picks #4 and #24. They pair Beal up with Kyrie Irving and make the playoffs for years to come.
3. Washington: Harrison Barnes F, North Carolina. The third best player in the draft is Michael Kidd Gilchrist, but Washington needs some offense and I think they take Barnes, who is a more developed offensive threat than the aforementioned Gilchrist.
4. Cleveland: Thomas Robinson F, Kansas. This is really Charlotte's selection, I think they take Robinson to give them some toughness down low.
5. Sacramento: Andre Drummond C, Connecticut. Drummond is pretty raw offensively, but they don't make a lot of guys this size. Drummond has the potential to be an elite defensive center. If he panned out to be a stud, he'd be a perfect fit next to power forward DeMarcus Cousins.
6. Portland: Damian Lillard G, Weber State. Portland needs a point guard. Lillard is a good one. With Drummond off the board, I think it's an easy pick for Portland
7. Golden State: Michael Kidd-Gilchrist F, Kentucky. I think the Warriors get an absolute steal here. Gilchrist slides because of lack of need in picks 1-6. Warriors get a great defensive wing who would be a near-perfect fit.
8. Toronto: Dion Waiters G, Syracuse. I'm not all that sure why people are huge on Waiters. He's quick and can get to the rim, but I never thought he was really all that great.
9. Detroit: John Henson F, North Carolina. All signs point to a big man and Henson would be the best big man on the board at this point. I don't know how well he meshes with Greg Monroe, but I think Detroit takes him anyways.
10. New Orleans: Austin Rivers G, Duke. I think there's a good chance Boston moves up to this pick to take Rivers, but lets assume they don't. New Orleans likes Rivers, they think he can play point guard next to Eric Gordon. I don't agree and I don't like Rivers as a prospect.
Dammit, I ran out of time… Quick I'll talk about the Knicks!!
At 48, I'd love to see the Knicks get Darius Johnson-Odom out of Marquette. Johnson-Odom is a tough, gritty defender and really can shoot the ball well. If he's not there, I think small forwards Khris Middleton from Texas A&M and Jae Crowder from Marquette will be in the mix, as well as sharp shooters Kim English from Missouri and Doron Lamb from Kentucky.
The Knicks need shooting guards who can actually shoot the ball (sorry, Landry). I think that has to be their priority in this draft. They also need help at backup point guard, and backup small forward. A developmental center behind Tyson Chandler wouldn't hurt either.

How it works!
Notable bicycle and sport equipment manufacturers integrate the CODE-No.com theft-protection service under the lacquer, as permanent component of the production process.
The CODE-No.com theft protection can also be stuck as individual label directly to the object to be protected. The label is made of a weather-resistant security film, with a very strongly bonding and high-performance adhesive.
A few easy steps to a registered CODE number:
- Fasten your security label to a clean and grease-free base. If properly applied, the label cannot be removed without the use of force. Full adhesive strength is achieved after approx. 48 hours.
- Register here only once, free of charge, here and activate your own personal CODE number. We recommend you also provide additional, unchangeable attributes, such as a serial number; this raises the level of protection.
- Your property is now protected!
What happens in a case of theft?
- The owner reports the object at CODE-No.com as stolen or changes the status on his/her own in their profile
- Worldwide theft check: Using the CODE number, any finder or buyer can determine the status of a registered object, so it is quite simple to check whether a bicycle, for example, has been reported as stolen. To do this, simply scan the QR code with a smartphone, or enter the CODE number online in the theft-check section.
