In an effort to spread the word to increase awareness about Sjogren's Disease, eye care providers are speaking out about this hard-to-diagnose condition.
Sjogren's is a systemic autoimmune disorder that can affect the whole body. One of the primary symptoms is excessive dryness particularly in the eyes and mouth. Other serious symptoms include chronic fatigue and pain, specifically in the joints, as well as major organ dysfunction. The syndrome also increases chances of neuropathies and lymphomas.
The severity of the disease varies greatly, ranging from mild discomfort to debilitating symptoms that can seriously impair normal functioning in everyday life. Early diagnosis and treatment can prevent serious complications and improve quality of life. There is currently no cure for Sjogren's, yet there are treatments for many of the individual symptoms. On average patients are prescribed upwards of 8 medications to treat the wide range of symptoms.
Women are nine times more likely to develop Sjogren's than men and diagnosis usually occurs around the age of 40. Unfortunately, because the symptoms vary from person to person, and the disease often occurs in the presence of or mimics other diseases (such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, menopause, allergies or multiple sclerosis) the disease is often misdiagnosed or overlooked. Further, because the symptoms can affect different parts of the body system such as the teeth, eyes or musculoskeletal system, various health professionals are sought to diagnose or treat specific symptoms (such as rheumatologists, dentists or eye doctors) while the big picture is often missed. On average it takes almost three years to obtain a Sjogren's diagnosis once symptoms are noticed.
Since dry eye is one of the most common early symptoms of the disease, there has been an effort to educate eye care providers to recognize and to be aware to look for symptoms of the disease. Patients also need to be aware and proactive about speaking to their health care providers about potential diagnosis and treatment. Knowing the risk factors and symptoms can be imperative to a faster diagnosis.
Your eye doctor may be able to detect and diagnose Sjogren's syndrome from dry eye symptoms as well as other diagnostic tests and review of symptoms. With this diagnosis the treatment will be different from typical dry eye disease. Since it is an autoimmune disease, lubricating eye drops may provide temporary relief but will not address the source of the problem. Your doctor may prescribe newer cyclosporine drops as well to treat the inflammatory response. If you have dry eyes and typical treatments aren't working, it may be worthwhile to ask about Sjogren's.
Sjogren's patients often feel misunderstood because most of the debilitating symptoms are not visible to others and the disease is often not recognized largely due to a lack of awareness. By increasing both public and professional awareness, the goal is to reduce diagnosis time and to advance research on the cure for this disorder.

Stafford Tax Levy Attorney
Have you received a notice of tax levy from the IRS because you could not settle your tax debt? If so, you may be wondering how it could be pushed back and get your taxes resolved without a tax levy order pushing through. Defense Tax Partners can answer how it can be done flawlessly.
Defense Tax Partners is a Stafford tax law firm specializing in any type of tax situation for which our lawyers find the best legal action to take. For tax levies, taxpayers will be assigned a Stafford tax levy lawyer from our talented team who can look into the situation and recommend the best course of action to resolve it with the IRS. We can help you from the moment you receive the order to negotiating directly with the IRS.
Our team will also ensure that you understand the entire process, so you are also prepared in case the IRS asks questions. We will make sure everything is stress-free and that we will work our very best to resolve it without experiencing too many losses.
Call Defense Tax Partners at (804) 570-1403 for your Free Consultation with a Stafford Tax Levy Lawyer!
What is A Tax Levy?
A tax levy is a legal action the IRS can take to get overdue taxes paid by taxpayers who have consistently been unable to pay their taxes. Under this legal action, the IRS is allowed by law to seize a taxpayer's property and sell it to cover the taxes that have not been paid. If a taxpayer has received an IRS levy office, they must contact the IRS with the help of a lawyer to resolve the issue as fast as possible.
Here are some examples of how the IRS will do a tax levy:
Bank Levies
The IRS can contact your bank and have them freeze your bank accounts for 21 days until they automatically get the money from your account to pay for your unpaid bills. During these 21 days, you will not be able to use your account unless you resolve your tax debt with the IRS.
Property Seizure
Under this action, the IRS will take your property – usually those with value such as your home, land, or vehicle – and sell it to make funds to pay off your tax debt.
Reduced Tax Refunds
If you have owed tax refunds, the IRS can automatically get them and use the funds to pay for your unpaid taxes.
Wage Garnishment
Like bank levies, the IRS will reach out to your employer and have them automatically send a specific amount to the IRS directly to constitute your tax payment until it is paid in full.
For business owners, contractors, or individuals who do not have a stable paycheck, the IRS can impose a 100% wage garnishment.
No one wants the IRS to conduct such actions on your property, especially if things are looking dire for you already. If you are having problems with your taxes, don't hesitate to ask for our help. We at Defense Tax Partners assure you that we can help you resolve your taxes without having to worry about your properties being seized and get a plan that you can stick with to settle your taxes.
Preventing a Tax Levy
A tax levy is often ordered if the IRS has already exhausted all the options to get you to pay your tax debt. Fortunately, if you wish for the IRS to take back the tax levy, there are various ways you can explore, and a good Stafford tax levy lawyer can help you pick the best option.
The first option is to pay your tax debt in full. Tax levies are sometimes considered as penalties to get people to move to pay for their tax debt. If it is paid in full, the IRS will rescind the order and not bother you again. But, if this is not possible for you, there are other options you can explore.
Another option is by negotiating for an installment plan with the IRS. The installment plan will be customized on your financial situation and the IRS's assessment of your situation. Having a tax levy attorney by your side can make the negotiations faster and help you understand the ins and outs of the plan.
You can also consider a one-time payment to the IRS and ask for tax debt forgiveness. However, you will need to prove that you won't be able to pay the debt in full, even with an installment plan. If this is the option that is best for your situation, our team at Defense Tax Partners can negotiate with the IRS.

From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...These muffins are a wonderful addition to the array of cakes and sweet breads that are served for breakfast. Despite the sugary crust, they are less sweet than most breakfast pastries and I think they will appeal to those of you who watch your sugar intake or enjoy less treacly sweets. They are not much work to assemble and they can be made with a couple of bowls and a wooden spoon. The recipe is a treasure to have on hand when you have to work in a kitchen that has more charm than functionality. As a matter of fact, I carry a copy of it when we are vacationing and I know that we'll be eating in. Eating in is family code for "Mom's cooking." The muffins are at their best when made with fresh blueberries, but I use the frozen variety a good deal of the time. If you use frozen berries do not thaw them. Thawed berries are too soft to survive the folding process and you'll end up with muffins that look like pallid eggplants. These muffins have lovely dome-like tops that crack and crater the sugar crust as they rise. They are attractive in a rough-hewn way and a sprinkling of confectioners' sugar will add greatly to their eye appeal. These muffins are fast, easy and delicious. Here is how they are made.
Sugar-Crusted Blueberry Muffins...from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite courtesy of Family Circle magazine
Crumb Topping
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup light-brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup 1/2 stick cold butter, cut up
2 cups all-purpose flour
2/3 cup granulated sugar
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
2/3 cup vegetable oil
1 cup cup fresh blueberries
Confectioners sugar (optional)
1) Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat wells of a jumbo muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.
2) To make crumb topping: In a medium-size bowl, whisk together flour, light-brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Work in butter with your fingertips until crumbs are formed. Set aside. .
3) To prepare muffins: In a small bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside. In a large bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup water, the eggs and oil. Stir flour mixture into oil mixture just until moistened. Gently fold in berries.
4) To bake muffins: Divide batter among prepared wells, about 1/2 cup in each. Top batter with reserved crumb topping, dividing equally (about 1/4 cup on each). Bake at 350 degrees F for 33 to 35 minutes. Cool in pans for 10 minutes, then transfer directly to wire rack and continue to cool. Before serving, dust with confectioners sugar, if desired. Yield: 6 muffins.

On this page you will find information regarding DVB-S2 PCI cards.
Please be aware that:
- The information contained here is likely non-exhaustive and, despite best efforts to do otherwise, may contain errors. (Please help to keep these lists up-to-date so that they are useful for everyone!)
- If your device is not listed, try:
- searching the existing mailing list archives:
- searching for information with Google or other internet search engine
- by posting a question about the device directly to the LMML (but please do conduct a search first, as it may already have been discussed!)
- Note: when it comes to support, it is generally a good idea to try the current V4L-DVB sources because some device drivers can be very new and thus may have not made their way into the mainstream kernel.
- In any regard, in respect to the above listed suggestions, you may find it to be the case that your device is actually already supported or that experimental support is available.
- Because the component constitution on many devices are often similar or identical, there may be devices that are unlisted but may actually work with the existing driver framework for previously supported devices. In such a case, your non-listed but working device will likely be reported in your system messages as being one of those previously supported devices. If you encounter such an occurrence, please do report your success on the LMML so that proper detection/identification of your device can be added within the drivers.
- Lastly, it bears worth repeating the request: Please help to keep these lists up-to-date so that they are useful for everyone!
Supported DVB-S2 PCI Cards
Native support by the Linux kernel
Support for DVB-S2 (HDTV) requires the API extensions which were released in kernel 2.6.28 ( S2API ), and up-to-date tuning and scanning programs (e.g. Kaffeine 0.8.8).
- DVBWorld DVB-S2 PCI2004C
- DVBWorld DVB-S2 PCI2004D
- Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-4000 (PCI32, supports CI)
- Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-HD-S2 (PCI32, supports CI); downgrade of HVR-4000, no DVB-T
- Prof DVB-S2 7300 PCI
- Prof DVB-S2 7301 PCI
- TechniSat SkyStar HD (PCI32, supports CI)
- TechnoTrend TT-budget S2-1600 (PCI32, no CI support)
- TechnoTrend TT-budget S2-3200 (PCI32, supports CI)
- TeVii S460
- TeVii S464
Support by thrird-parties drivers
Experimental support for several cards exists. "Experimental" means their open-source drivers have not been included into the Linux kernel yet.
Support for DVB-S2 generally requires the API extensions released in kernel 2.6.28 ( S2API ), or the obsolete Multiproto API.
- Azurewave AD-SP400 CI (Twinhan VP-1041) (PCI32, CI included)
- KNC1 DVB-S2+ TV Station (PCI32, supports CI)
- KNC1 DVB-S2 TV Station (PCI32, supports CI)
- Satelco DVB-S2 Easywatch (PCI32, supports CI)
- Satelco DVB-S2 TV Station (PCI32, supports CI)
- TBS 8922 (PCI32, no CI support)
- TechniSat SkyStar HD2 (PCI32, CI included); this is a rebranded version of the AD-SP400 CI (Twinhan VP-1041)
- TechniSat SkyStar S2 (PCI32, no CI support); works when looking for the patch and applying it to the linux kernel source
- TerraTec Cinergy S2 PCI HD CI (PCI32, CI included); this is a rebranded version of the AD-SP400 CI (Twinhan VP-1041)
- DVBSKy DVBSKY S830 (PCI32, no CI support). Based on Montage M88DS3000 demodulator.Linux driver can be found on its support website.
Note: Do not let the "experimental" tag scare you, as the level of device functionality may actually be quite high. After additional testing and/or feature work, the drivers for these devices will make their way into the main branch of Hg and become candidates for inclusion into the Linux kernel. Please also consult the mailing archives for further information.
Currently Unsupported DVB-S2 PCI cards:
If you own one or more devices from the following list and you want to help with support development, please contact the Linux-Media Mailing List (LMML). Note that if your device is similar to or contains components for which driver development is currently being undertaken, then it is possible that you will pique the developers' interest and can obtain some assistance that, possibly, leads to full support for your device.
However, please note that inquiries to the mailing list:
- Should NOT be treated as an order drop-off queue. You're soliciting help from volunteer developers who work on V4L-DVB matters in their spare time, and such work can be non-trivial (i.e. requiring even thousands of hours work). So being demanding is one sure route to being ignored. (Honestly, this point really shouldn't even need to be written, but you'd be surprised at the number of irrational individuals who write into the mailing list demanding this or that).
- May pass without garnering a response—a distinct byproduct of the fact that there are a limited number of developers, whom might be able to help, that are associated with the project. Often times, even if they wished to help, their energies are entirely tied up with other projects. In such cases, the best path might be to try to spearhead the driver development for your device yourself, or hire someone who can.

Phenomenal Woman
by Maya Angelou
Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It's the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet.
I'm a woman
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can't touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them
They say they still can't see.
I say,
It's in the arch of my back,
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I'm a woman
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
Now you understand
Just why my head's not bowed.
I don't shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me passing
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It's in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair,
the palm of my hand,
The need of my care,
'Cause I'm a woman
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

N.J. Students Sickened By Bob Marley Drink At School
Officials have removed a relaxation drink named after reggae icon Bob Marley after several students at a New Jersey school were sickened.
Marley's Mellow Mood is promoted to reduce stress. The drink's nutrition facts say it may cause drowsiness and is not intended for children.
However, students at Satz Middle School and Holmdel High School could buy it on campus. Several middle school students were sickened on Friday.
The Asbury Park Press reports the school district's food service provider has removed a manager pending an investigation. Chartwells School Dining Services also has removed the Marley product.
The company issued a statement in which it said it takes this situation very seriously.
It's unclear what the students' symptoms were.

Natures Way Valerian Root Details
Nature's Way Valerian is an all natural sleep aid that promotes a good night's sleep that you will have over and over again. It decreases the amount of time it takes for people with mild insomnia to fall asleep. It can also treat anxiety and counteract stress. Herbalists may recommend Valerian to people who get headaches and muscular pain because of its ability to relax the muscles.
About Nature's Way
America's leader in herbal medicine.
If you've heard of Nature's Way, or better yet, used their products, it's not surprising. They have been America's leader in herbal medicine for over 40 years. As the pre-eminent provider of health and healing through the power of nature, their commitment to quality reflects their commitment to you. In fact, it's woven into the very story of their founding.
A family crisis and an herbal renaissance.
Nature's Way originated from a circumstance everyone can understand—a family's desperate need to overcome a personal health crisis. Back in the late 1960s, Tom Murdock, the founder of what is now Nature's Way, needed a solution to help his gravely ill wife. After trying conventional medicine without success, Tom and his wife turned to the traditional Native American knowledge of "medicinal plants" growing in the Arizona desert. As a result, she recovered and lived an additional 25 years.
Tom Murdock's pioneering spirit did more than save a life—it led to the renaissance of herbal medicine in America. As word spread about his wife's recovery, Tom set out to find other healthy treasures growing in the Arizona desert. By 1969, Tom and his family had eight new herbal remedies to share with others and thus began the legacy of Nature's Way.
While it may seem hard to believe now, for many years herbal knowledge was a lost art in a country fueled by conventional, and often invasive, medical approaches. The founding of Nature's Way reopened a door that had long been closed. Motivated by a passion to spread the power of natural healing, Tom and his family moved back home to the beautiful mountain valleys of Utah and almost single-handedly spurred the growth of what could be called the "Silicon Valley of Herbal Supplements."
An industry pioneer in many ways.
When you've been pioneering natural health for over 40 years, you develop an impressive list of "firsts" among major dietary supplement companies. Many of these innovations initiated by Nature's Way have shaped how America thinks about natural medicine. Here are just a few:
- Nature's Way has a state-of-the-art, pharmaceutically licensed, industry-recognized GMP manufacturing facility, and invested in it well before it became more common to do so.
- They were the first major supplement company to be certified as an organic food processor, an important distinction as they focus on being caretakers of their resources, as well as natural medicine providers.
- They were the first to bring clinically proven, European phytomedicines to the U.S. market that had long been recognized as effective, but were new to many in this country.
- They fund major third-party organizations to responsibly disseminate trustworthy health information and ensure quality in the field at large.
- Theybelieve that health freedoms aren't something to take for granted. As such, they champion and fund legislative efforts to guard their health.
It's more than a business. Nature's Way believes in giving back.
Nature's Way is grateful for their business success and they express it through a tradition of giving back. A few examples include:
- Founding donor groups to protect the world's rainforests, where the world's next great herbal medicines may be discovered.
- Donating vitamins to the poor in developing nations, where daily nutrients are in short supply.
- Supporting self-reliance programs for the homeless to address physical needs and the dignity of each individual.
- Contributing to research to find a cure for breast cancer and other diseases.
Nature's Way Today.
Today, their manufacturing capacities have expanded and they're able to bring even more good things to you. That's because being affiliated with Schwabe North America and its family of brands, including Boericke & Tafel, Enzymatic Therapy, Integrative Therapeutics, Inc., allows them to expand their reach and enhance the health of more people through the power of nature.
As one of the most technologically advanced supplement manufacturers in the United States, they continue to push the boundaries forward on quality research, testing and introducing new ingredients. We offer over 500 premium nutritional and natural products, including single herbs and herbal extracts, homeopathic remedies, vitamins, minerals and specialty products.
While herbal supplements are still the backbone of their product line, new and innovative products including Alive Whole Food Energizer, Primadophilus probiotics, Ginkgold clinically proven ginkgo extract, EfaGold essential fatty acids, Hydraplenish hyaluronic acid and Thisilyn liver support formulas, just to name a few, are exciting additions to their offering.
After all, innovation, seeking the best in nature, and bringing "the world's best" to the marketplace is their goal. Like their founder Tom Murdock, they're still pioneering. There are many discoveries yet to be made in this amazing world. They may happen in a rainforest, a savannah, or like they did over 40 years ago, in a desert. When they are discovered, they'll bring them to you.
That's why you can Trust the Leaf.
Nature's Way's company logo—the green leaf seen on their product packaging and on this web site—features a motto: "Trust the Leaf." They mean it. They take it seriously. They strive to produce the very best and have worked hard to build trusting relationships with their retailers and with you. They know that millions of people rely on Nature's Way products to enhance their health. They consider it a legacy of their history and a pledge to the future. That's why you can turn to them again and again and "Trust the Leaf."
Take 3 Nature's Way Valerian Root 530mg capsules one hour before bedtime. For intensive use consult your healthcare professional.

Take a look at the website of this conference, and then at the brochure (which, presumably, was circulated quite a while ago) for the same conference.
See any difference?
For one thing, the brochure says that the conference is organized by ACM (Association of Computing Machinery). The website, however, is silent about the involvement of ACM. Similarly, the brochure mentions -- and the website is silent on -- the ACM Digital Library as a destination for the papers presented at the conference.
We now know why the conference website has been cleaned up. This is what ACM says on its main page:
Conference Misrepresenting ACM as Sponsor
ACM has been made aware that the International Conference on Futuristic Computer Applications (ICFC) to be held in Bangalore, India, March 20–21, 2010, is using ACM's name to promote their event. This is not an ACM conference, and the organizers have been asked to remove all references to ACM on their site.
The brochure lists Google, Intel, Texas Instruments, HP, Philips, Yahoo Inc, Alcatel-Lucent Technologies, NASSCOM, and Vnysea as "supporting" the conference. While the website has their logos flashing in the left panel, its page for participating companies just thanks "all our current sponsors," without naming a single one of them.
This page lists a "Patron" and a "Co-Chair" from Duke University which seems to be unaware of their association with it: its directory has neither Steve Paterson nor J. Thorpe [except possibly this guy in the Department of Pharmacy!].
Finally, any conference that says this should make your scam sensors antennae tingle and throb violently:
Participate in ICFCA in your Absentia.
Those who cannot come to Bangalore on the conference days due to prior engagements but wish to present a paper in absentia are encouraged to send in their "Application in Absentia" by January 15, 2010. Papers presented in absentia are eligible to be included in the conference and shall avail of all the privileges bestowed on any regular paper.
* * *
Well, this has got to be one of the most fabulous conferences! I mean, wouldn't it be great to participate in it "in absentia" and still get a paper in a journal which will be distributed by the "Harvard Press", and available on Google Scholar?
I was sort of looking forward to running into some of the conference participants because the venue, J.N. Tata Auditorium, is right here in IISc.
I'm deeply disappointed that the "organizers" have not booked this auditorium (yet).
* * *
Thanks to a couple of colleagues who alerted me about this scamference conference.

This should be very interesting watching. Feel free to leave a comment if you notice anything new or interesting in any of the videos.
12 comments:
Richard Ed Green has an interesting graph right at the end of his talk. The main purpose of it is to show the denisovan population diverging away from the main human group about a 2 million years ago.
Interestingly it does show a few other things IMO. Although the time scale is very hard to read, and what is a micro T anyway?
(1)All the human reference populations track together as if they were one breeding population until about 250kya when the Africans start to diverge away from each other and the out of Africa (OOA)group.
(2) The Dinka of the Nile/Sudan are the last of the african groups to split off from OOA group.
(3) The OOA group breeding population size tracks together for much longer than I expected. Karitiana/Papuan are the first to split off. ~20kya
(4) Han seem to diverge from French/Sardinian very late. Puzzling. Perhaps this a resolution issue. In which case the true split could be Han/Papuan/Karitiana at 35kya. Which makes slightly more sense.
(5)There appear to be three periods of population expansion.
a)250kya (origin of Homo Sapien skills?)
b)20-30kya. (Gravettian?)
c)~10kya. (Neolithic?)
(6)Han population expansions (GRavettian and Neolithic) seem to lag a bit behind FRench/Sardinian. Suggests that it happened first in near east and spread. I only mention it because of the recent work showing earlier and earlier dates for the chinese neolithic.
(7)Papuans have two population surges also roughly corresponding to lagged Gravettian and neolithic. The suggestion IMO is that ideas travelled rapidly to the Han and more slowly to the Papuans over the water.
(8)The Dinka and Yoruba seem to have a surge 50kya. Hard to know why. The Madenka (whoever the hell they are) also have a minor 35kya surge.
(9)None of the african groups seem to have benefitted from the neolithic. Surprisingly. - Wednesday, August 07, 2013 3:26:00 am

"The Madenka (whoever the hell they are)"
A West African language group. Used to be called 'Mandingo'. Found in Mali/Birkina Fasso, but spreading into Senegal, Gambia and Guinea-Bissau. I got to know quite a few of them when I visited Gambia, Senegal and Mali:
The great albino singer Salif Keita is Mandinka:

Thanks Terry. I was wondering if it was them. But I have never heard them called Madenka before.

I just watched all of these videos.
It seems that the consensus is that modern humans evolved in Africa, and there was some minor mixing with other populations after leaving Africa, and possibly also within Africa.
The evidence presented seems undeniable, although the interpretation could change a little bit with unforseen additional discoveries (such as a diverse ancestral group of modern humans somewhere other than Africa, that migrated to Africa before leaving again).
So (as I really don't know that much about these things), I would like to know if there are any reasonable, non-racist, arguments against the "mostly" out of Africa hypothesis presented in these talks. - Thursday, August 15, 2013 3:27:00 pm

1. Last part of the last video. While the y-dna root and mtDNA root exist in what's currently in africa for other genetic clades it's not the case. Meaning your root ancestor there is in neanderthals in some cases and in asia in other cases. Significantly, your brain is x-linked and the root for neanderthals is on X.
2. Go back just 10 generations and you have 1024 ancestors, 1022 of which are not represented by your Y-DNA or mtDNA.
3. Selection. Y-DNA male specific markers relate to male specific parts and hormones. They are not just a random marker, and that means they could be massively overrepresented in results. Meaning you are retaining this part but possibly basically nothing else in some or even most cases. Goes double for mtDNA as it's the basic structure of energy productions.
4. Just because something's in africa now, doesn't mean it always was. To me current locations of dna groups seem to radiate out of india andd iran. It's widely said that r1b very recently moved to spain though it seems to be most heavy there. However for africa the opposite logic is used as proof of origin. So presumably it migrated west in a way that made it look like it's migrating east. And we get this same issue with most of the haplogroups. We know natufians had E dna for example. So if there's out of africa why did they go in to africa? Ditto for austronesians. It is bound to happen sometimes but this has to be taken as the norm for OoA theory to make any sense. The biggest similarity I see to black africans is the south indians and the austronesians. They seem to have radiated out from india so presumably they moved entirely out of africa then radiated out of india and got to the middle east in just the right proportions. Clyde Winters posted in another post here and was convincing but while he seems to think that the early indians came out of africa I think likely it's the other way around and that's why they are separated by such a distance.
5. Bantu expansion. Nowadays africa is black, but even 200 years ago that was not the case. Black africa was really just the congo area, cameroon and nigeria.

(due to length blogger made me split this post up)
6. No cave art in africa until very recently, compared to 40k to perhaps 55k for some art in europe. This tells me this is when the san showed up.
7. Lack of ancient skulls with black african features in africa. There's maybe some 10k years ago but that's it, all the east african ones look rather middle eastern.
8. All the finds for early homo are in NE africa and they show up suddenly, like they came from ME over south land bridge.
9. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homo_rhodesiensis Homo Rhodiensis. This dates from about 300k years ago to about 125k years ago. Now it might make up part of human genome and this may be what Hammer is talking about but this means in africa at the same time as modern looking humans we have these guys who are among the most archaic looking hominids ever found.
10. There's no hominid in africa with a modern sized brain before homo sapiens just shows up. Neanderthal had larger brains. Peking man had only slightly smaller brains but seems to date back as much as 500k years or even 750k years. Comparing to the rhodiensis skull it looks many times more modern. Basically there's absolutely NO archaeological evidence for out of africa or really for any form of evolution in africa. It all comes from the mtDNA and Y-DNA evidence. All the fossils are too archaic compared to other fossils that are earlier or in sebida's case don't come from homo at all. That's why there was no out of africa theory before then, and I believed it too for a long time but now that we know there's outside admixture and that I have looked closely at the archeology, and that new stuff has come to light outside africa it seems like a completely busted theory to me.
11. The A00 root clade in africa is found in cameroon, right where 15k years ago a big migration of r1b (and with it neanderthal DNA) occurred. Neanderthal hangs right off a00, this could come from neanderthals.
12. Molecular clock. I think this is mostly BS. But if it IS true it means that haplogroup replacement happens very fast. So in essence it doesn't mean anything.
13. No cities. To me this is a no brainer.
So what do I think now?
I think things happened multiregionally but with endless waves of migrations mostly originating in india and iran, slowly but surely replacing the mtDNA and y-DNA of previous migrations with new ones but retaining much of the genes of the previous immigration round through natural selection. The Bs of west africa spread before humans had boats and so didn't make it to america like the austronesians and siberians did and eventually got rather washed out and cornered in africa before discovering farming.
And no my interest in this is not racial in the least, or political like a lot of the studies or even most seem to be. My interest is mainly in neanderthals but also general interest in ancient civilizations. - Friday, August 16, 2013 3:58:00 am

Yes, and also, one I had to snip, sorry.
So the biggest thing in Hammer's presentation was the evidence that there had been a big admixture with some archaic species in africa. So if homo sapiens evolved in africa in the first place this is pretty much nonsensical. That pretty obviously means that modern looking humans of some kind were just entering africa for the first time, otherwise it means they stayed in the north east corner of africa for 100k years all to themselves before going to subsaharan africa, but wait, until now we are told sub saharan africa is where every human evolved.
Anyway, I guess this theory won't die for political reasons, but honestly I don't think it's a flattering theory to african americans anyway. Almost racist because it implies everyone evolved from an african, as if they are an archaic human form which I don't believe is the case.

Oh boy looks like none of my wall of text got through so I'll give the short short version.
No one denies the Y-DNA and mtDNA are older in some african populations. However that doesn't actually say anything about where people evolved. It's a big assumption to think everyone evolved where they stood but in everywhere but africa we see that's not true.
The fossil record gives no support to OoA either. Teeth in west europe have perikymata (striations) in similar proportions from neanderthal times. So do asians (much less), and modern africans and ALL early homo in africa have none at all. So if there was a migration out of africa somehow it had no impact of any kind on the fossil record.
And somehow the super "robust" rhodiensis that the guy in the video is talking about in the video as introgressing into africans evolved side by side for millions of years without impacting it.
And there's still no evidence of a hominid with a chin that would account for it suddenly showing up. Not only in africa, but anywhere. Eventually we'll find a human ancestor with a chin and the mystery will be solved.
So nope, there was no massive out of africa. The time they appear is the time when modern looking humans arrived from elsewhere right on the border to the levant. Humans didn't evolve on a tiny narrow strip of land that's just where the archaeology is being done and where it's easy to date your finds.

This is a FREE game of strategy and deception similar to Stratego. Your goal is to locate and destroy the enemy 'Army King'. You move your army flags around a 3D battlefield of your choosing to trap and destroy enemy flags in your quest to find the enemy King. At first, neither army knows the values of their enemies flags. As the game progresses you will do battle with each other revealing the true value of the flags involved in the conflicts. As you slowly learn each others flags your goal is to devise a plan to attack at the heart of your enemy and eliminate their King! There are many types of flags you may place to create your army from 'Serpents' and 'Demons' to 'Sea Monsters' and 'Great Dragons'. Some can travel fast, others can travel on or over special terrain types such as water and stone. Others cannot move at all but can be devastating to attacking enemy flags.

Are you young, hip and "active"?
How about forward-thinking and green?
Reasonably well-heeled?
Do you shower before you go to work? If so, the Bavarians are targeting you for their new "sporty, sophisticated and eco-savvy" X1 sports-activity vehicle.
And what is an X1? Think of an X5 or an X3 that was left in the dryer a bit too long.
The X1 is a couple of inches smaller than a Toyota RAV4 or a Ford Escape.
The blizzard of demographic desirability that BMW has brewed up for the X1's American debut is impressive. Even more impressive, however, was the X1's ability to deal with a real blizzard.
Some of the credit has to go to the Pirelli Cinturato P7 All Season tires on our car, but the X1 easily got us through a long night of thick snow and stiff winds. It turned what was evidently traumatic for other drivers—the ones in the ditch or creeping along with their flashers blinking—into an enjoyable romp.
The linear throttle and the adaptive transmission manage the power very smoothly; the brakes and steering are equally hooked up and communicative; the suspension perfectly walks the line between comfort and control; and the electronic anti-spin, anti-slip guardian angels are always present to help avert disaster.
There was more than enough bite at both ends to put all these assets to work, so I felt like a Finnish rally ace when we got home. Heck, I wanted to turn around and go do it again. My wife rolled her eyes and ran into the house.
BMW offers three versions of its new (to the US) little ute, each in three trim lines. The 240-horsepower 4-cylinder 28i can be had with rear-wheel or all-wheel drive. Our car was the third variant, the xDrive35i, which has a potent 300-horsepower 6-cylinder motor and all-wheel drive. BMW's "intelligent" AWD system is rear-wheel drive most of the time, but it seamlessly and near-instantaneously sends power to the front wheels when needed.
The two X1 28i models come with dual-mode 8-speed automatic transmissions; the more-powerful 35i has a 6-speed, also with normal and sport settings. All X1s have a host of fuel-saving features both overt (automatic stop-start) and covert (direct fuel injection, using the brakes to generate electricity, optimizing climate control, etc.), which promise up to 34 miles per gallon. Your own mileage may vary; ours certainly did, but we were wrestling with snow, wind and bitter cold.
Top-dog German cars like to lure in buyers with reasonable-sounding base prices and then slaughter us with a menu of costly add-ons. The RWD 28i starts at $30,800 and the xDrive35i at $38,600 (plus delivery). This is upper-end RAV4 and Escape territory.
But BMW threw the entire catalog at our car, which maxed its sticker out at $48,095. However, if you restrain yourself to, say, just the M Sport package and uprated paint and trim, the tab for a highly satisfactory and deluxe X1 35i with AWD rises only to $44,000, including four years of maintenance. This works out to a three-year lease at $450 a month, or just four days of lift tickets at Vail.
Speaking of which, BMW has also ginned up a Powder Ride Edition X1. Along with all available luxuries, it comes with wild artwork, special floor and cargo mats, a color-coordinated rooftopper for skis and boards, and a price tag of $48,000 for the 35i or $44,400 for the 28i. Oh, and you also get a pair of matching K2 Powder Ride skis!
We prefer a slightly roomier vehicle for our ski junkets, which involve four adults bulked up in ski and snowboard gear. (There's always the bigger, much more expensive X3 and X5.) But no one can fault the X1's winter chops. It bears out my theory that a car that excels in the dry has a built-in advantage when things get ugly. Taut handling and highly manageable power are useful anywhere, anytime—provided there's also a bit of ground clearance, that is.
It has to be said that, at least when it's not crusted with snow, the X1 is almost unendurably cute, a twee little crossover ute that could have been made by Santa's elves. But beneath the lovable-puppy sheet metal beat the heart and chassis of a lion. It is a BMW.

Financial planning is not always cut and dried. Changes are likely to occur in a person's life, and financial needs and goals shift along with them. Life insurance is part of the financial picture for a good portion of our lives. It may increase as our responsibilities increase and decrease as we accumulate more assets. There may be times when it suits a person's needs to have more than one life insurance policy. There is no limit to the number of policies you can purchase.
Why Have Multiple Life Insurance Policies?
It is not uncommon to divide life insurance coverage among multiple policies. Any given individual may have, for example:
- A large term life insurance policy for coverage
- A smaller policy included in the mortgage payment
- Balance life insurance on credit cards
- A small whole life policy purchased during the individual's childhood
A man or woman with a family may have term life insurance to provide protection for the family until the children are grown and have completed their educations. The same person may also have a universal life insurance policy for the investment options and lifelong coverage it provides.
What Happens When You Increase Your Life Insurance Coverage?
Insurance companies are typically concerned with the total amount of coverage you have, not the number of policies. As you add more life insurance coverage, your insurer will likely examine your physical condition and health more closely. A complete physical examination may be required if you want to significantly increase your total coverage with any one insurer.
What Are the Pros & Cons Of Buying Multiple Life Insurance Policies?
There are pros and cons of purchasing multiple policies to obtain additional life insurance coverage. One advantage is that dividing coverage among more than one insurer can help you avoid a full physical and close scrutiny of your health and help protect your privacy. Another advantage is the flexibility it gives you to purchase the best product for each purpose and to tailor policies to suit your needs.
On the con side, it costs more to buy multiple small policies than a single larger policy, as underwriting costs account for a significant portion of policy premiums. Additionally, if you are aware of certain health problems and buying multiple policies to avoid close scrutiny, your policies could be invalidated if that fact is revealed.
Alternatives To Buying Multiple Life Insurance Policies
Instead of purchasing and dropping life insurance policies to suit your changing needs, consider buying term insurance riders for an existing policy. Term riders are small policies piggybacked on your main coverage. They usually cost less than a standalone policy because the underwriting was already done when your main policy was issued. If you have a term life insurance policy and want to add permanent coverage, in most cases, you can simply ask your insurer to convert part of your term policy to permanent insurance. This strategy has the advantage of not requiring further health checks. Our experienced agent will work with you to find the best life insurance options to suit your needs.

Cyber Thieves & StubHub
Ten people around the world have been indicted or arrested in connection with the case, which involved more than 3,500 tickets and at least $1.6 million in unauthorized purchases of sought-after seats, some to sold-out shows or behind the Yankee Stadium dugout, Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus R. Vance Jr. said.
"Today's arrests and indictment connect a global network of hackers, identity thieves and money-launderers" who targeted the leading digital marketplace for reselling event tickets, Vance said. The scheme spooled from Russia to London to Toronto to the New York area and even to Barcelona, Spain, where accused Russian ringleader Vadim Polyakov was arrested while vacationing earlier this month.
The case comes amid growing concern about data thieves targeting consumer giants, and it pointed up pitfalls customers may face in using one password in multiple parts of their online lives.
StubHub said it was alerted to "a small number of accounts that had been illegally taken over by fraudsters" last year, contacted authorities and gave the affected customers refunds.
While prosecutors said they weren't certain how the alleged thieves got access, San Francisco-based StubHub said they got account-holders' login and password information from key-loggers or other malware on the customers' computers or from data breaches at other businesses. San Francisco-based StubHub, owned by eBay Inc., said there had been "no intrusions into StubHub technical or financial systems."
In the last few years, such major companies as Target, LinkedIn, eBay and Neiman Marcus have been hacked. Since many customers use the same email and password on multiple websites, thieves can net a combination from one site that works in many others, data security experts say.
It's like re-using "the same key for every lock in your life – especially if you're giving that key out to everyone you meet," says Joe Siegrist, the CEO of LastPass, which makes password-management software.
In the StubHub case, once the suspects had those digital keys, they were able to use the credit-card and other information stored in unsuspecting users' accounts to buy tickets – some as pricey as a $994 pair of field-level seats to a St. Louis Rams-Houston Texans game, prosecutors said.
Buyers can download tickets directly to their StubHub accounts. Account-holders do get emails confirming their purchase; in some cases, those emails prompted customers to contact StubHub and report fraudulent buys, company spokesman Glenn Lehrman said.
After the buys, members of the ring re-sold the tickets and routed the money to others who laundered it, and the group split the profits, Vance said.
"This guy (Polyakov) is pretty much admitting he is a hacker," one of the alleged fences, Daniel Petryszyn, wrote in an online chat, according to prosecutors. "These tickets are all profits … I will launder all the money they want."
Petryszyn, 28, and another accused re-seller, Bryan Caputo, 29, pleaded not guilty Wednesday to money laundering and stolen property possession charges. Petryszyn, who works at a catering business, "has every intention of challenging these charges," said his lawyer, Liam Malanaphy.
Caputo, who works at a restaurant company, simply re-sold some tickets, said his lawyer, Reginald Sharpe. "If they were stolen, he didn't know that they were," Sharpe said.
Polyakov, 30, was awaiting extradition, and it wasn't immediately clear whether he had a lawyer. Three other men indicted in the Manhattan case hadn't yet been arrested; two are in Russia. Meanwhile, authorities have arrested three suspected money-launderers in London and one in Toronto on local charges there.

Learn why self-treating hearing problems with personal sound amplification products might not be a better value after all.
Big-box stores, warehouse clubs, and online retailers have made it easier than ever to buy over-the-counter hearing devices or personal sound amplification products (PSAPs), but… not so fast! For hearing loss, the help of a trained hearing care professional stands head and shoulders above self-treatment, which can cause more harm than good.
What Are Personal Sound Amplification Products?
PSAPs, defined by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as "wearable electronic products for use by non-hearing impaired individuals to amplify sounds in certain environments," typically comprise a microphone, an amplifier, and a receiver.
Though potentially helpful in normal hearing to amplify sounds in situations such as watching TV, listening for animals during outdoor recreation, or hearing a presenter who's speaking some distance away, PSAPs can't take the place of properly fit hearing aids.
What Are the Pros and Cons of PSAPs?
Some benefits:
- Relatively inexpensive
- Can amplify soft sounds that might otherwise be harder to hear
- Made with recreational activities in mind, thus supporting active lifestyles
- Designed to wear immediately after purchase, making them convenient
- Might serve as a short-term alternative while considering more comprehensive solutions
Some limitations:
- Neither FDA-approved or recommended to treat actual hearing loss
- Can amplify sound but cannot help your brain process sound
- Often uncomfortable in the ear, and for many patients they're difficult to manage
- Could cause hearing damage or aggravate existing damage with misuse or overuse
- Bypasses the crucial step of professional testing, programming, fitting, and follow-up to rule out hearing problems and ensure the device is appropriate for your ears
What Should You Do?
In a report released by the National Academy of Sciences, panelists noted the need for "qualified providers and clinics with the knowledge, skill, and expertise to properly evaluate, prescribe, and train people in the use of hearing devices" and also concluded that "consumers who work with providers trained in the use of properly prescribed and fitted hearing devices can expect better results than those who use off-the-shelf products."
Don't leave your hearing health to chance. Work with a licensed hearing care professional trained to test your hearing, diagnose potential problems, and tailor a solution to your individual needs. Hearing loss not only involves one of your most important senses but can affect your physical, social, mental, and even financial health, making effective evaluation and treatment critical.

You know he got the cure
But then he went astray
He used to stay awake
To drive the dreams he had away.
He wanted to believe
In the hands of love.
His head it felt heavy
As he came across the land
A dog started cryin'
Like a broken-hearted man
At the howling wind
At the howling wind.
He went deeper into black
Deeper into white.
He could see the stars shine
Like nails in the night.
He felt the healing
Healing, healing, healing hands of love
Like the stars shiny, shiny from above.
A hand in the pocket
Fingering the steel
The pistol weighed heavy
And his heart he could feel was beating
Beating, beating, beating,
Oh my love, oh my love
Oh my love, oh my love.
So hands that build
Can also pull down
The hands of love.
