The Paleozoic (or Palaeozoic) Era (from the Greek palaios (παλαιός), "old" and zoe (ζωή), "life", meaning "ancient life"Mesozoic Era.
The Paleozoic was a time of dramatic geological, climatic, and evolutionary change. The Cambrian Period witnessed the most rapid and widespread diversification of life in Earth's history, known as the Cambrian explosion, in which most modern phyla first appeared. Fish, arthropods, amphibians and reptiles all evolved during the Paleozoic. Life began in the ocean but eventually transitioned onto land, and by the late Paleozoic, it was dominated by various forms of organisms. Great forests of primitive plants covered the continents, many of which formed the coal beds of Europe and eastern North America. Towards the end of the era, large, sophisticated reptiles were dominant and the first modern plants (conifers) appeared.
The Paleozoic Era ended with the largest mass extinction in Earth's history, the Permian–Triassic extinction event. The effects of this catastrophe were so devastating that it took life on land 30 million years into the Mesozoic to recover.[2] Recovery of life in the sea may have been much faster.[3]
In North America, the era began with deep sedimentary basins along the eastern, southeastern, and western sides of the continent, while the interior was dry land. As the era proceeded, the marginal seas periodically washed over the stable interior, leaving sedimentary deposits to mark their incursions. During the early part of the era, the area of exposed Precambrian, or shield, rocks in central Canada were eroding, supplying sediment to the basins from the interior. Beginning in the Ordovician Period, mountain building intermittently proceeded in the eastern part of the Appalachian region throughout the rest of the era, bringing in new sediments. Sediments washing from the Acadian Mountains filled the western part of the Appalachian basins to form the famous coal swamps of the Carboniferous Period. In North America carboniferous is not generally used instead the time is divided between Mississippian and Pennsylvanian period because of differences in the sedimentary rock deposited in this time. The Mississippian is characterized by limey sediments deposited in shallow seas, typically with abundant crinoidal fossils as in the Burlington fm. The Pennsylvanian typically is characterized by terrestrial sediments such as sands, shale and most importantly coal. Most of our oil and gas are obtained from Pennsylvanian sediments. Where this has been stripped, as in the Ozark domal region, oil is not typically available.
Paleoclimatic studies and evidence of glaciers indicate that central Africa was most likely in the polar regions during the early Paleozoic. During the early Paleozoic, the huge continent Gondwanaland had either formed or was forming. By mid-Paleozoic, the collision of North America and Europe produced the Acadian-Caledonian uplifts, and a subduction plate uplifted eastern Australia. By the late Paleozoic, continental collisions formed the supercontinent Pangaea and resulted in some of the great mountain chains, including the Appalachians, Urals, and mountains of Tasmania.
Geologically, the Paleozoic starts shortly after the breakup of a supercontinent called Pannotia. Throughout the early Paleozoic, the Earth's landmass was broken up into a substantial number of continents. Towards the end of the era, the continents gathered together into a supercontinent called Pangaea, which included most of the Earth's land area.
The Ordovician and Silurian periods were warm greenhouse periods, with the highest sea levels of the Paleozoic (200 m above today's); the warm climate was interrupted only by a
The early Cambrian climate was probably moderate at first, becoming warmer over the course of the Cambrian, as the second-greatest sustained sea level rise in the Phanerozoic got underway. However, as if to offset this trend, Gondwana moved south with considerable speed, so that, in Ordovician time, most of West Gondwana (Africa and South America) lay directly over the South Pole. The early Paleozoic climate was also strongly zonal, with the result that the "climate", in an abstract sense became warmer, but the living space of most organisms of the time—the continental shelf marine environment—became steadily colder. However, Baltica (Northern Europe and Russia) and Laurentia (eastern North America and Greenland) remained in the tropical zone, while China and Australia lay in waters which were at least temperate. The Early Paleozoic ended, rather abruptly, with the short, but apparently severe, late Ordovician ice age. This cold spell caused the second-greatest mass extinction of Phanerozoic time. Over time, the warmer weather moved into the Paleozoic Era.
The middle Paleozoic was a time of considerable stability. Sea levels had dropped coincident with the ice age, but slowly recovered over the course of the Silurian and Devonian. The slow merger of Baltica and Laurentia, and the northward movement of bits and pieces of Gondwana created numerous new regions of relatively warm, shallow sea floor. As plants took hold on the continental margins, oxygen levels increased and carbon dioxide dropped, although much less dramatically. The north–south temperature gradient also seems to have moderated, or metazoan life simply became hardier, or both. At any event, the far southern continental margins of Antarctica and West Gondwana became increasingly less barren. The Devonian ended with a series of turnover pulses which killed off much of Middle Paleozoic vertebrate life, without noticeably reducing species diversity overall.
The late Paleozoic was a time which has left us a good many unanswered questions. The Mississippian began with a spike in atmospheric oxygen, while carbon dioxide plummeted to unheard-of lows. This destabilized the climate and led to one, and perhaps two, ice ages during the Carboniferous. These were far more severe than the brief Late Ordovician Ice; but, this time, the effects on world biota were inconsequential. By the Cisuralian, both oxygen and carbon dioxide had recovered to more normal levels. On the other hand, the assembly of Pangaea created huge arid inland areas subject to temperature extremes. The Lopingian is associated with falling sea levels, increased carbon dioxide and general climatic deterioration, culminating in the devastation of the Permian extinction.
While macroscopic plant life appeared early in the Paleozoic and possibly late in the Neoproterozoic, it mostly remained aquatic until sometime in the Silurian and Devonian, when it began to transition onto dry land. Terrestrial flora reached its climax in the Carboniferous, when towering lycopsid rainforests dominated the tropical belt of Euramerica. Climate change caused the Carboniferous Rainforest Collapse which fragmented this habitat, diminishing the diversity of plant life in the late Carboniferous and Permian.[5]
A noteworthy feature of Paleozoic life is the sudden appearance of nearly all of the invertebrate animal phyla in great abundance at the beginning of the Cambrian. The first vertebrates appeared in the form of primitive fish, which greatly diversified in the Silurian and Devonian. The first animals to venture onto dry land were the arthropods. Some fish had lungs and strong, bony fins and could crawl onto the land also. The bones in their fins eventually evolved into legs and they became the first tetrapods. Amphibians were the dominant tetrapods until the mid-Carboniferous, when climate change greatly reduced their diversity. Later, reptiles prospered and continued to increase in number and variety by the late Permian.[5]

Heading to Philly? This Spring is a great time to check out the city — especially with Virgin America launching its low-fare, high-frills daily nonstop flights from LAX and SFO to PHL as of April 2012. Known for its tricked-out new planes, touch-screen entertainment, and amenities like fleet-wide WiFi, the airline has created a cult-like following on the coasts. And the airline's in-flight entertainment does credit to its California roots — with an iPad-like seatback touchscreen for flyers with 35 films, live TV, Google Maps, video games, seat-to-seat chat, music videos, a 3,000-song library, an on-demand menu, and more.
To mark the quickly growing airline's Philly launch, Virgin America first shared the news with its social media fans via a video that spotted the beloved and mysterious "Greenman" from the hit FX television show It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia near a Virgin America aircraft. In addition to grabbing those super-low fares to Philly, visitors to the airline's Facebook page can enter for a chance to win round-trip flights and the ultimate It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia fan pack, consisting of seasons 1-6 DVDs, a Paddy's Pub t-shirt, the official board game, and a guide to the characters' favorite haunts. Oh, and of course, you can check out It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia en route at 35,000 feet on Virgin America.

Longevity, one of the major risks investors face in retirement, is also one of the furthest things from their minds. A survey by Bankers Life and Casualty found 87% of middle-income Americans over 55 said they don't spend much time thinking about how long they might live in retirement.
That may be because for many people, their longevity is simply out of their hands. About two-thirds said the determining factor in how long they will live was genetics. Less than half said eating right and exercising would affect their life span. Additionally, 60% of respondents said their best years were still ahead.
The Boomer Project polled 500 Americans between the ages of 55 and 75 with annual household incomes between $25,000 and $75,000 for the survey for Bankers Life.
For those who are talking about their longevity, it's primarily a health concern, rather than a financial one. Half of respondents said they were speaking with their doctor or spouse about longevity. Just one-fifth said they were talking to an advisor. Furthermore, when asked to name their main longevity concern, most people said declining health, not outliving retirement assets.
"Considering longevity and the risks of outliving retirement savings is a first step in developing and achieving health, income and even personal goals for a satisfying retirement," Chris Campbell, vice president of marketing and business development at Bankers Life and Casualty Co., said in a statement.
Retirement is still a source of anxiety though, with 62% saying they felt some level of anxiety. Just over a fifth said they had calculated a goal for their monthly retirement income, and 13% have calculated a total savings goal.
When they do think about the impact longevity could have on their finances, two-thirds of respondents understand that even if they do meet their retirement savings goal, it doesn't necessarily mean they won't outlive their savings. Forty-two percent are aware that they could live for more years than they have saved for and 28% said they could work until age 65 and still not have enough saved for retirement.
Concerns about Social Security and misunderstandings about how it works could also be contributing to retirement anxiety. More than two-thirds of respondents said they were concerned about the future of Social Security, and 38% said "Social Security as we know it" would be gone in the next 20 years.
While 84% of respondents said Social Security benefits were part of their plan for retirement income, they could be relying too heavily on them. Almost three-quarters of respondents who are already receiving benefits said they make up at least half of their retirement income. The Social Security Administration puts the national average at 65% of people who rely on benefits for at least half of their income.
In addition to leaning too heavily on their Social Security benefits, some respondents just don't understand how they work. Over a third didn't know they could increase their benefits by delaying when they start claiming them, and almost half thought an annual cost of living increase was a guarantee.

Crossover of Two Worlds
Just an aside before I begin - when the bloggers log into the dashboard to write a new post, we can see the blogs that have been written lately, if there are any new comments, etc. Today, as I was perusing through the new comments, I realized that Fisher Grad Life Bloggers are getting spammed by sites. I find it highly entertaining that we have gone from a site only our families read because they're our family to being spammed. Of course our blog site is really well set up and all posts and comments are screened before being published so these spam comments will never reach your eyes, but...it is still funny. Also, this is my first official blog with my name changed to Amanda Wenner - shout out to Jason Hart who helped me gain access again after the system had no idea who I was.
Now - onto what I came here to do.
Some of you know that I was a member of the OSU Marching Band for 3 years. I play clarinet, but because the OSUMB is only brass and percussion, I was on student staff. The marching band is essentially run by 14 student staff members: 2 record fund managers (they sell cds and other OSUMB paraphernalia - all of the cds you see in the stores are sold by them), 3 secretaries and 1 librarian (the names speak for themselves), 3 uniform managers and 1 seamstress (all uniforms and pieces are distributed through this office and the seamstress fixes anything that rips and hems all of the pants, etc), 2 instrument managers (distribute all of the instruments and fixes broken instruments) and 2 audio/visual managers (they film all practices and performances, record everything and at the end of the year compile it all for a dvd). Of course there are the 5 directors: 1 director, 1 assistant director, 2 graduate assistants, and 1 percussion instructor. All of this goes together to keep the band running smoothly, like a well oiled machine.
Three years of my life were dedicated to this organization and met some amazing people and had wonderful experiences. Needless to say, I still try to keep up with what's going on in marching band world. As I was facebook stalking a day or two ago and was looking through the OSUMB's photographer's website and realized that the squad leaders had a day-long retreat at the Ohio Union. As a part of their retreat, they had a speaker come in to talk about effective team leadership. And the guest speaker was none other than Fisher's Tony Rucci. I think it is so cool that my undergraduate and graduate worlds have intertwined themselves. Here's the link to all of the pictures if you want to browse through them.
For those of you who don't know who Tony Rucci is, he is a professor in the College of Business, but not before he was an executive with 3 Fortune 100 companies. He was also fairly instrumental in the turnaround of Sears Roebuck and Co. You can also read his FCOB profile here.I really hope I'll be able to take a course with him before I graduate. I think I've planned it out pretty well so that I have room to take an extra class Spring Quarter, so we'll see how that goes.
But that's all for now. Here's a wedding picture, for your enjoyment. Also, congratulations to Megan Heighton (now Mueller) who got married a few weeks ago). Weddings are in the air!

Pope to Bishops: Keep Church Charities Catholic
Motu proprio outlines stewardship responsibilities
WASHINGTON — Seven years after his first groundbreaking encyclical, Deus Caritas Est (God Is Love), Pope Benedict XVI has issued a motu proprio, De Caritate Ministranda (The Service of Charity), designed to guide and strengthen episcopal stewardship of Church-affiliated charitable institutions.
Formally dated Nov. 11, but released in December, the motu proprio (on his own initiative) affirms the central role of charity in the Church's mission and provides directives for diocesan bishops charged with securing the Catholic identity of Church-affiliated outreach programs.
While that first encyclical drew praise for its rich portrait of "the God with a human face," the Pope describes the new document as "an organic legislative framework for the better overall ordering of the various organized ecclesial forms of the service of charity, which are closely related to the diaconal nature of the Church and the episcopal ministry."
Such guidelines are needed, he states, because the Code of Canon Law had neglected to "mention charity as a specific sector of episcopal activity," thus giving the erroneous impression that charitable work was not central to the Church's mission in the world. In the motu proprio, the Pope directs bishops to foster charitable initiatives across their dioceses and to scrutinize the policies and practices of such programs in order to guard the integrity of Catholic charitable work.
"The Holy Father affirms the importance of my responsibility to provide proper governance over the charitable works of the Church, to maintain the sacramental quality of the charitable works of the Church that are intended to do the work of the Gospel in concrete ways, giving hope, life and help to people," Bishop Jaime Soto of Sacramento, Calif., told the Register.
Bishop Soto said the guidelines echoed the Pope's teaching in Deus Caritas Est: Charity plays an essential role in the Church's saving work, alongside the proclamation of the Gospel and the celebration of the sacraments.
Marie Hilliard, a canon lawyer at the National Catholic Bioethics Center, which advises the U.S. bishops on institutional policies, welcomed the document.
Said Hilliard, "The document lays out the legislative framework under which these charitable endeavors are to be administered, specifically under the authority of the diocesan bishop, particularly in assuring that funds are managed in conformity with the demands of the Church's teaching and the intentions of the faithful."
Challenging Times
One directive that will likely draw much scrutiny and debate is the Pope's statement that Church "agencies do not accept contributions for initiatives whose ends, or the means used to pursue them, are not in conformity with the Church's teaching."
Indeed, the Holy See released the motu proprio amid an era of heightened Internet-fueled scrutiny of some U.S. Catholic charities. These agencies have been buffeted by partisan resistance to the Church's stances on hot-button issues like same-sex "marriage" and by government policies like the federal contraceptive mandate that could result in the closure of Catholic agencies.
But the legacy of Catholic charities at the international, national and diocesan level has also been tarnished by weak or ambiguous internal policies and oversight.
As the chairman of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops' Subcommittee on the Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD), Bishop Soto has sought to address ongoing concerns from critics who charge that CCHD grantees include groups that actively oppose Catholic teaching on life issues or marriage.
Similarly, Catholic Relief Services (CRS) recently came under fire by critics who alleged Church funds were provided to grantees that actively opposed Catholic moral teaching.
Joan Rosenhauer, executive vice president for CRS' U.S. operations, told the Register that the relief agency had tightened up its "system of approval," carefully vetting all proposals that involved external donor organizations and potential collaborators, and that the motu proprio offered encouragement for such efforts.
"As an agency of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, our first step is to work with the conference to see if they have further guidance" regarding De Caritate Ministranda, said Rosenhauer.
CRS' annual budget is $700 million, and government grants cover 60%-70% of that figure.
Difficult Judgments
But while the motu proprio stipulates that bishops must end practices that stir up confusion and even scandal, individual bishops must still make their own judgments about how to implement that directive.
Father Larry Snyder, president of Catholic Charities USA, suggested that the directive asking bishops to refuse funds from organizations that work contrary to Church teaching would likely spur debate.
Father Snyder noted, for example, that a large donor like the Gates Foundation, while doing a "tremendous amount of good helping people in need, also supported family planning."
"Some bishops have said that … in areas where the [donor's] mission corresponds with Church teaching, it is okay" to collaborate with organizations like the Gates Foundation, said Father Snyder. "Other bishops insist that if the foundation gives any support to family planning we cannot participate at all."
Over the past decade, local ordinaries have also offered sharply different judgments on another problem: how to respond to statutes that bar discrimination against same-sex couples.
In San Francisco, recent archbishops have addressed such challenges in different ways. At times, controversial decisions have been blamed on the city's often difficult political climate, but Jeff Bialik, executive director of Catholic Charities CYO, notes that its bylaws give the local ordinary — now Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone — "the authority to approve any member of the board and remove any member of the board."
Finding the Right People
The motu proprio directs charitable institutions to hire employees who embrace the Church's mission, or at least respect it, and also asks that "formation of the heart" influences the work of such agencies.
However, state and federal anti-discrimination laws sharply curtail the ability of Church agencies to recruit Catholic employees for non-ministerial positions, though agency leaders contacted for this story say such constraints do not affect their programs.
Msgr. John Enzler, president and CEO of Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Washington, said that his organization hires people "who have talents or gifts for serving the poor. We don't worry about religious background, as long as they can live with the guidelines of our mission."
Msgr. Enzler, however, meets personally with new hires to review the agency's mission and values, and prayer and spiritual reflection are part of the daily routine.
J.D. Flynn, the chancellor of the Denver Archdiocese and a canon lawyer, suggested that the Pope was not directing Church agencies to hire only practicing Catholics. Rather, he was making a larger point about the proper orientation of charitable workers.
"The Holy Father is saying the power of charity is only viable if it is orientated to the salvation of souls," said Flynn.
"That doesn't mean that everyone must be a daily communicant, but that the Church has a high view of human dignity, and we need to approach charitable service from that viewpoint."

Same-sex marriage activists await Supreme Court arguments
Same-sex marriage supporters in Milwaukee said they will be watching closely as the U.S. Supreme Court hears arguments regarding the issue on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Justices will hear arguments in two cases that could settle what rights same-sex couples have.
Gay-rights activist Dan Choi said he watched as things began to unfold Monday.
"Civil rights is always worth fighting for in our time, in our lives," Choi said.
Choi, a former Army lieutenant, was discharged after announcing his sexual orientation and speaking out against the Army's "Don't ask, don't tell" policy in 2009.
Equality Wisconsin and Fair Wisconsin LGBT-advocacy groups hosted Choi at a fundraiser Monday in Milwaukee.
"Our agenda is love; it's justice, and when we fight on behalf of ourselves, when we stand up and say, 'I'm somebody,' and we claim our full personhood, not just for ourselves but for all those in earshot," Choi said.
One cases the Court will hear challenges California's ban on same-sex marriage. The other case looks at if the federal government should recognize marriages that are legal in some states.
Thomas Peters with the National Organization For Marriage said Americans have already spoken on the issue.
"The rights of millions and millions of Americans who have voted to protect marriage over the last 15 years deserve to have those votes respected by the highest court in the land," Peters said.
Choi said the proceedings are a fight in a larger battle.
"We have a long way to go. I'm not going to say that one court case is going to be the end all, be all, for an entire people," Choi said.

Fortescue Metals Group is set to sell down its stake in a joint venture with Pilbara junior BC Iron, as the company continues efforts to reduce its debt loading and restart the expansion projects that were sensationally stalled in September.
Both companies currently own 50 per cent of the Nullagine iron ore project under a landmark deal that was struck in 2009, but BC Iron has confirmed today that it is poised to buy a further 25 per cent of Fortescue's stake.
BC Iron shares have been halted all day ahead of the deal being announced. Fortescue shares were not halted this morning, and duly rose by almost 7 per cent to be testing $4.05 around 2pm.
Fortescue's decision to leave its shares open for trading has already attracted the attention of the ASX regulators, with Fortescue arguing that it is too big a company for the transaction to be considered material.
Under the terms of the deal, BC Iron will pay Fortescue $190 million for the extra 25 per cent of the asset.
The acquisition will increase its annual iron ore export capacity by 80 per cent to 4.5 million tonnes.
Speaking from Sydney this afternoon, BC Iron managing director Mike Young said the deal would be highly accretive to BC Iron shareholders and was about as low risk as an acquisition could get.
"We know the deposit, we know the management and we like the management," he said.
The original joint venture was struck in August 2009, and saw BC Iron sell 50 per cent of its Nullagine iron ore prospect to Fortescue, in return for using Fortescue's railway and port infrastructure to sell its product to China.
BC Iron managing director Mike Young was criticised at the time for giving away too much to his bigger neighbour, and has long defended the deal by saying it was "better to have half of something, rather than all of nothing".
The deal has since proved to be a masterstroke as a lack of transport infrastructure has left other Pilbara juniors with stranded assets that are unlikely to be developed now that iron ore prices have slumped.
Mr Young joked this afternoon that he would have to update his catchphrase.
"Now i've got 75 per cent of something," he said.
BC Iron has been exporting iron ore since February 2011, and has since exported 5 million tonnes.
The company is one of the few, if not the only Australian iron ore exporter to have a higher share price today than at the same time in 2011.
It paid a dividend in September and Mr Young said today's deal was likely to be followed by more growth.
BC Iron will take on $130 million in debt to fund the deal, and will look to raise a further $58 million in equity through a share placement and purchase deal which is underwritted by Macquarie.
As well as looking at assets overseas, Mr Young said BC Iron would look to develop other Pilbara assets with Fortescue.
"We are hoping that, going forward, we can do some more business with Fortescue," he said.
Fortescue boss Nev Power said the deal was good for both parties, but did not say what the money will be used for.
It is expected the money will help Fortescue restart the Kings iron ore asset it halted in September when iron ore prices slumped.

A Xerox Corp. initiative has sent millions of cards to troops serving overseas.
It may be difficult to find the right words to express thanks, but around the holiday season it's a common need. An to do just that, Xerox Corp.'s Let's Say Thanks program allows people from across America to send 13 million thank-you cards to soldiers serving overseas, with the click of a computer mouse.
"The program has kept going in rsponse from the public and the volume of people that visit the Xerox web site," said Carl Langsenkamp, a Xerox spokesman.
Originally the program was meant to be a one-time deal - a way for employees to say "thanks" to troops overseas during the holiday season.
In December 2005, employees from the Atlanta Xerox office had children of National Guard units serving overseas draw pictures for cards to be sent to the troops. The cards were printed and handed out to patrons at a local mall to sign. In the first package, 10,000 cards were sent. The program has grown from there and now is Web based.
Anyone can visit the Web site and choose one of a selection of cards created by children from across the nation. Fill it out and Xerox will print it and send it for free. Each card is sent to a random soldier, with a personalized message.
Children from across the country had the opportunity to submit artwork for the cards. Fifty-five designs were selected, including two from the Rochester area. These designs range from traditional patriotic symbols of eagles and flags to trees and globes.
Langsenkamp says people from 13 countries have visited the site and filled out cards.
It is a small token of thanks that goes a long way to making a soldier's day, and can be seen by responses received.
"There are times we seldom hear a thank you, or receive a card or post card saying it," said Specialist Stacey Dill of the Army. "Being so far away from home, it is comforting knowing that there are people back in the states that support us."
For more information about the Let's Say Thanks program or to send a card, visit www.letssaythanks.com.

WENATCHEE, Wash. — The newest draft plan to merge four Washington tree fruit trade organizations would reflect the make-up of the industry, a proponent says.
Large companies account for 55 to 65 percent of the state's tree fruit acreage, said West Mathison, president of one of the largest companies, Stemilt Growers Inc., Wenatchee, and leader of a task force proposing the plan.
"We're trying to make board governance reflect the composition of the industry," he said, after presenting details of the new plan at North Central Washington Apple Day at the Wenatchee Convention Center, Jan. 23. The grower meeting was sponsored by Washington State University Extension and the North Central Washington Fieldmen's Association.
The original plan, outlined in early December at the Washington State Horticultural Association's annual meeting, did not assure positions for independent growers only and would have allowed large companies to occupy all the positions, Kirk Mayer, manager of the Washington Growers Clearing House Association, has said.
The Clearing House board unanimously wanted some seats reserved for independent growers, he said, to preserve their voice within the industry.
Mayer and Clearing House board member Frank Lyall, a Grandview grower who objected to the original plan, have said the new plan provides adequate representation for independent growers.
Mathison said it was never the intent to exclude independent growers, but he has previously said that large companies should have greater say since they have the most acreage.
He noted independent growers make up 35 to 45 percent of industry acreage. He said Sid Morrison, a Zillah grower and former member of Congress and state Legislature, told him that a unified industry voice is most effective in lobbying and saves legislators from trying to decide who is right if they hear conflicting voices from an industry. Two years ago, Morrison voiced reservations about a merger. One voice in lobbying has been cited by Mathison and others as the main reason for merger.
The new plan calls for independent growers to have five of 13 positions on the board of what would be called the Washington Tree Fruit Association. Two of the five would be from roughly north of Interstate 90 and three from south, reflecting greater acreage in the south, Mathison said.
Five positions would be for companies that pack and sell fruit, again with two north and three south of the interstate. Three remaining positions would be at-large north or south and could be any grower, including packer-marketers that also grow.
"Independent grower" is defined as an owner of orchards in tree fruit production who devotes a majority of the time to agricultural production but does not have ownership in a packing or marketing company.
Trustees would be limited to no more than three consecutive three-year terms.
Grower assessment for funding would be at current levels at less than 1 cent per box of fruit. Marketers shipping less than 1 million boxes of fruit annually would pay $1,500 and those shipping more than 1 million would pay $2,500.
The four organizations being merged would be the Clearing House, Horticultural Association, the Wenatchee Valley Traffic Association and the Yakima Valley Growers-Shippers Association.
The boards of all four organizations are being asked to vote on whether to proceed with the plan by March 1, Mathison said. He said he believes they will proceed. The task force will draft bylaws for acceptance by April 1. If the bylaws are approved, a transition board will be appointed to hire an executive director and begin transition toward Sept. 1 completion. The old organizations would wind down by the end of 2014 or early 2015, he said.

In this study the researchers used Super-Resolution Microscopy in order to attempt to understand the gag proteins and envelope recruitment and how exactly the HIV-1 virus is incorporated into the cell (which was previously not known). They were able to see the GAG assembly sites along with teh HIV-1 envelope proteins in the envelope expressing cells. It was discovered that the envelope accumulation outside of and surrounding the GAG assemblies (rather than directly being in contact with it) was able to assist the spread of the virus in vivo.

In this study the researchers used Super-Resolution Microscopy in order to attempt to understand the gag proteins and envelope recruitment and how exactly the HIV-1 virus is incorporated into the cell (which was previously not known). They were able to see the GAG assembly sites along with teh HIV-1 envelope proteins in the envelope expressing cells. It was discovered that the envelope accumulation outside of and surrounding the GAG assemblies (rather than directly being in contact with it) was able to assist the spread of the virus in vivo.
--Mark Hill (talk) 10:39, 9 April 2013 (EST) This is a reasonable summary of the article on Super-Resolution Microscopy. You may have considered explaining further why this technique was better than existing techniques, e.g. resolution, localisation. You have used as explained in class the Pubmed referencing format correctly.

Do you see any change in the phenotypes between group A and group B?
Group A (Tm4 over-expressing cells) had a greater percentage of stumped phenotypes and a significantly greater amount of pronged phenotypes compared to group B (control group). Group A also appeared to have a significantly higher number of neurites than group B. Contrastingly, group B had a significantly greater percentage of broken fan phenotypes and a few pygnotic phenotypes were noted while group A had none. Group A and B appeared to have a similar percentage of Fan phenotypes. Notably, group A was seen to have increased branching and processing and brighter fluorescence when compared to group B.
If you see a difference, speculate about a potential molecular mechanism that has lead to this change, if you don't see a change, speculate why that could be.
Tropomyosin is associated with the Actin filament function regulation which stabilizes and increases the strength of the filaments. The Tm4 isoforms are found predominantly in the growth cones of neurons and subsequently when there is an over-expression of Tm4 in the growth cones then in turn it could increase the growth of the neurites [1]. As noted in question one, there was an increased number of neurites in group A (Tm4) than group B (control) which would therefore indicate that the over expression of Tm4 not only increases the growth of the neurites in length but also increases the number of neurites detected. As tropomyosin stabilizes and increases the strength of the actin filaments, this in turn could therefore enable the actin chains to become longer and hence potentially increase the length of the neurites [2]. Due to the increase in length of the neurites this could correlate to the increased number of pronged phenotypes and a substantially decreased number of broken fan phenotypes.

Group 1
It is obvious that you have done a fair amount of research into the regulation of cell division. However something which stood out to me from the introduction was the lack of references. You should look at referencing every new point you make on the page, and the first two paragraphs of the introduction have no references listed. The references you have used appear to be referenced correctly and you have used journal articles as opposed to website. Your history section looks good, but I'm assuming it is still unfinished. I liked the brief description that you made for each date which makes it easy and interesting to read. The images you have used appear to be referenced correctly with the copyright information which is good. The only suggestion I would have is to have a title underneath the image on the actual page so that we know what we are clicking I.e. fig 1 shows this... Another suggestion is to add some more images as I find this breaks up the text and also helps us understand what you're writing about. In regards to your current research section, I'm not entirely sure why you were listing points? Was that what one research article was about or is that a list of articles? This should probably be made a bit clearer and again referenced. Another thing i noticed is that you dnt have a glossary which is a good way to explain uncommon words. I think that its well written and easy to understand but even in the introduction There are several words such as cell division and mitogens which would be good to put in the glossary section. Overall Ithink you've done a good job and if you fix up the images, glossary and the referencing then it should be a great page to read.
Group 2
I think your introduction is very sound and easy to understand however it isn't referenced at all? The images you have included are a good way to show us. What you are writing about. Your history section might be a bit too brief, for example, what physical manipulations did Ray use? And the colours seem to be a bit intermittent, however what you have written is interesting and easy to understand. The mechanisms section is good and easy to understand. As there is a lot of content I would probably suggest adding some more pictures to break up the page and also make it easier for us to read. The two explanations of cytokinesis in animals and plants is good and simple t understand. The Cytokiensis failure section is done quite well with some good images as is the current research. Your glossary is quite in depth which is really good. The only other suggestion I would have is adding some more references to your page. Overall I think you've dne a good job!
Group 3
I like how you explain in your introduction what you will be covering in the page. It sets it out really well. You have clearly Donna lot of research on the Golgi apparatus and have referenced it well. I noticed that reference 38 doesn't actually have a reference connected to it? The function section is really informative, the only suggestion I would have here is to add an image or two so that it's easier to read. I think you've done a really good job on the history section and it's well laid out. In the. Models for division section, if possible I would add some images there to show the differences. Apart form that the rest of the page is well written and researched with a good number of images to break up the text! Overall, I think you've done a great job on this page!
Group 4
I quite like the image you have at the top of the page and think that it makes it more enticing for us to read! Your introduction is good but doesn't really discuss the spindle Apparatus nor is it referenced. I think if you added a brief paragraph of what you are going to be discussing on your page would be a nice idea. The images you have added are good and help break up the text. However I think you should have your own proper description of the images rather than solely using the authors one. The history section is well laid out but most of the dates dt have references. Also the first image in this table is rather large, you are able to make that image smaller on the page whcihc I think would be a good idea for that section. In the later dates I would probably suggest that you cut down the amount of content you have written or put it in bullet points so that it makes it easier to read. The structure section is good but again there is a lot of content, if possible I would try and simplify some areas or put them into bullet points. I think that you have made good use of your images in this section. The function is good but I would suggest that you add some images in this section if possible and also try to make sure that you reference at least every paragraph. Overall I think you've done a great job and if you fix up some of the things I've suggested then it will be an even better page to read!
Group 5
You have clearly done a lot of research on this page, however I think perhaps there is too much writing. Perhaps try and either cut down on your information or put some of it in bullet points to make it easier to read! The hisotry section is nice and brief and is well referenced! In regards to the structure of the nuclear envelope, is there any other information you need to include to the outer nuclear membrane as it seems rather short when comparing to the inner nuclear membrane. What you have written is really good, the only other suggestion I have for you is to add many more images which help explain the text and also breaks it up. Your glossary section is rather limited so I would possibly suggest that you add some more words into that which make it easier for us to understand more difficult words! Overall I think its a great page and if you cut down on some of the information then it will even better!
Group 7
I think your introduction is really succinct and easy to read. It really introduces the topic well! I think that the fucntion is really brief and has some good references there. This ensures that its easy to understand and keeps the reader interested! You've incorporated the images well with the text and it help breaks it up! Your history section is really extensive and impressive ! In your during cell division section, I think the content is really good but I would probably suggest that you add an image or two to help explain the text - the same with the mitochondrial fission and fusion. I think the diseases you have discussed are really good and really informative! Overall I think its a good page and the only things to mkae it even better would be to add some more images and to add a glossary!

6 Arrested for Trashing Former NFL Star Brian Holloway's House
NFL Star Brian Holloway 6 Arrested For Trashing Crib Hundreds More May Be Busted
Sometimes it doesn't pay to party ... 6 youngins were arrested Thursday for causing 10s of thousands of dollars in damage after breaking into the house of former New England Patriots' star Brian Holloway ... and now TMZ has learned more than 200 others could be arrested as well.
As we previously reported ... Holloway claims hundreds of teens broke into his house near Albany and trashed it over Labor Day weekend.
The 6 kids -- ranging in age from 17 - 20 -- were taken into custody and arraigned on various charges, including criminal trespass. The 19-year-old was charged with felony burglary and felony criminal mischief. And 3 of the adult kids were charged with endangering the welfare of a child. The 17-year-old was charged with felony grand larceny.
Only a handful of parents even bothered to call Holloway after the incident to apologize or offer help in repairing the damage.
Holloway posted hundreds of names of the partygoers on his website. Now the cops are telling TMZ, "We currently have over 200 names ... Once we've established proof of their presence at the party, they will be asked to turn themselves in."
And here's how crazy that could be ... the courts can't handle that kind of volume, so cops say they will be arraigned in groups of 10 to 12.
Waiting for your permission to load the comments.

She was the City of Peace, eternal and ancient. All lesser nations bowed before her high mud walls, many gated, their arches picked out in blue and red tiles in which glimmered bits of the captured rising and setting sun. Temples and brothels, camel trains and a thousand different races all co-mingled beside her green waters, while visitors and citizens alike made love in bowered gardens through which drifted clouds of sweet incense and birdsong. No raiders from the waste could breach her bull and eagle guarded crenellations. All greater ones, those bellicose nations occasionally stirred into orgiastic expressions of war, led by conquering kings, who would send out their vast armies snaking down from the mountains or across the desert, seeking to batter and pull them down, were met with open arms. Doors thrown wide, dancing and singing women and men lining the causeways bestowing flowers, gifts of gold, silver and flesh, they drew off the stream of martial vigour into her carnal embrace. No army could defeat the great City of Peace, for those who might, she seduced, and those who lacked the means to force her subservience, she rebuffed and then enslaved, one by one, be they nomads or merchants, allowed to be led through her postern gates beneath a crescent moon and a flower hued flame.
In the end, the dynasties of the desert and the high passes would disappear, their far flung satrapies rising in rebellion to sunder with civil war the chains which held them all. Kings died, their lines grown weak or dissipate over time and whole kingdoms might evaporate like salt on the plains. But she did not, Daughter-Cradled-by-Rivers. She had been there since the gods had first raised the world from the primordial sea, laid dust upon the reeds, and made a home for themselves and those they created to worship them at the centre of the world emergent. And she would remain, long after, undisturbed by war, famine, and empire, which were mere ripples in her vast apsu of time, that sweet reflecting pool in which she snared both the moon and sun. City of Peace, she would outlast all but the gods themselves, her dancers chanting the same songs they had first learned back when the waters were tamed by the divine breath, and go on with their ancient ways in the alleys and streets of the city long after the final sword was broken and the last chariot had tumbled to dust.

AHL Game Night: 11-9-13 Crunch at Admirals
Still the kings of Norfolk.
Cedrick Desjardins stopped all 19 shots he faced for the shutout and the victory. After the game, Syracuse sent Kristers Gudlevskis down to Florida of the ECHL after Riku Helenius suited up for the backup role tonight.
First Period
SYR Namestnikov, (6) (Brown, Nesterov), 5:36 (PP)
Second Period
SYR Paquette, (4) (Cote, Korobov), 10:25
SYR Tyrell, (3) (Angelidis, Walker), 11:13
SYR Namestnikov, (7) (Paradis, Gauthier), 12:48
Third Period
Vladislav Namestnikov, Dana Tyrell, and Desjardins were the game's three stars.
Can the Syracuse Crunch win games where Nikita Kucherov doesn't appear like a rash all over the scoresheet? They did tonight. Can they get secondary scoring? They did tonight. Can they keep shots and chances down and keep the puck out of the back of their net? They did that all weekend. They answered a lot of lingering questions about their own legitimacy as a team and, in the process, have taken over the top spot in the East Division. They're still 2 points shy of the top spot in the Eastern Conference with a game in hand on Manchester.
The Crunch move on to face Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Friday.

Junior placekicker Steven Calitri kicked the game-winning 40-yard field goal with 17 seconds to play as the Central Connecticut football team won its first game of the season, 20-17, on the road at Albany on Saturday night.
With the win Central is now 1-3 overall on the season. Albany drops to 1-3.
The road win for the Blue Devils is the first since the final game of the 2011 season when they won at Bryant. It marks the first win over Albany since the 2010 season.
Junior running back Rob Hollomon rushed 20 times for 145 yards and a touchdown, including a season-long 59-yard run in the third quarter. He averaged 4.8 yards per rush on the night. He finished the game with 254 all-purpose yards, including 60 receiving.
Defensively, the Blue Devils held Albany to 276 total yards and sacked the Great Danes four times in the win. Senior Chuck Watson had a team-high 15 tackles, including a sack and three tackles for a loss. Albany had just 136 yards on the ground.
Calitri started the scoring with a 31-yard field goal on their first drive. The Great Danes scored 10 points off two CCSU turnovers in a two minute span to take a 10-3 lead to open the second quarter. Tom Riordan kicked a 39-yard field goal and then Omar Osbourne ran it in for the first touchdown of the game to give Albany its first lead.
The Blue Devils answered with a 13-play, 68-yard scoring drive to tie the game 10-10 with 8:01 left in the second quarter. Senior quarterback Andrew Clements hit junior Thomas Tarantino from one-yard out on a fourth-and-goal to tie the game. The touchdown pass was the second of the season for Clements, and the first scoring catch for Tarantino.
Albany took a 17-10 lead at the end of the third quarter. A long 15-play, 78-yard drive took 6:09 off the clock and the second rushing touchdown of the game for Osbourne gave the home team the seven point edge.
Hollomon answered quickly with a 59-yard touchdown run on the next possession for the Blue Devils, tying the score at 17-17 with 14:19 to play in the fourth quarter. The run was a season-long for Hollomon, and his sixth touchdown of the season.
After forcing an Albany punt the Blue Devils drove 13-plays and 57 yards leading to the Calitri game-winner. The drive took 4:36 off the clock and left Albany only 17 seconds to run two final plays.
Watson's 15 tackles led the Blue Devils. Sophomore Josh Celerin and senior Antwione Reese each added 10 tackles. Sophomore Mark Robinson had a pair of sacks.
Clements finished the game 13-for-22 for 140 yards and a touchdown. Junior Darius Lee added 42 yards on the ground as Central ran for 186 yards in the win.
The Blue Devils will return to action next Saturday at Rhode Island, kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. Fans can listen online at iHeartRadio.com or FoxSportsRadio1410.com.

Dear parents and students,
In the 37-plus years I spent as a classroom teacher, I learned some tips for helping students become successful, so I am sharing my �Bees� of success.
First:�Be there.�
No student with a spotty attendance record will perform well. Learning builds. Think of your education as building a brick wall. Missing a day of school means you miss bricks, and those missing bricks become unsightly �holes� in your learning. The greatest service parents can do to ensure their children get a solid education is to get the children to school every day.
Second: �Be on time.�
The rule in my classroom was �BIC� when the tardy bell rings. �BIC� stands for �butt in chair.� Good teachers want to start quickly and use what precious time they have to teach. Waiting for students to mill around and take a seat cuts into instructional time.
Third: �Be prepared.�
Being prepared means having your supplies and materials. Coming to class without a pencil or paper or textbook or laptop means you did not brings the tools for doing your job. Would you trust a plumber to fix your leaking faucet if he asked you for a wrench or screwdriver? Show up on the job with what you need to be a good learner.
Part of being prepared is doing your homework. Teachers assume you complete your assignments when they plan activities for class the next day.
Fourth: �Be respectful.�
You need to respect yourself, your classmates, your parents and your teachers. Students often become angry when they think a teacher has �dissed� them. I cannot tell you the times I have heard students say, �You gotta give respect to get respect.� The irony is most of the time, students say these words right after they have shown disrespect.
Teachers should model respectful behavior. So should parents. Most students are going to have a hard time respecting a teacher who has been bashed and trashed by Mom or Dad.
One more thought on respect: Teachers show respect for their students when they refuse to allow students to turn in shoddy work or give substandard performance. By giving constructive criticism and encouraging students to work harder, teachers are showing respect for students.
The fifth �bee� is: �Be cooperative.�
Believe it or not � teachers want students to succeed. I never had a student enter my class and said to myself, �Man, I want that kid to fail.� Teachers want you to learn. Your teachers know the ordeal you are going to be facing at testing time. They have a plan in place to have you ready.
Frankly, some students act like balky mules. Their lack of cooperation usually stems from one of two things. First, adolescent arrogance makes young people think they already know what they will need in the future. They do not.
A second cause for withholding cooperation is fear. Some students believe even if they try, they will fail � so why try? But teachers are equipped to prepare you to succeed. They want you to succeed. In today�s test-crazy educational setting, your success reflects on your teachers. Do you think teachers want you to look unprepared and untaught?
Sixth: �Be responsible.�
Students: you are in charge of your education. You decide how much effort you give and how much attention you pay. Getting an education is a student�s job. Part of doing that job is accepting the responsibilities that come with the job.
Seventh: �Be kind.�
The world is often cruel and hurtful. I wanted my classroom to be a safe haven � a place where students can come to learn without fear of taunts, bullying and ridicule. Nowhere is the Golden Rule more appropriate than the classroom: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
Finally, the eighth: �Be honest.�
Begin by being honest with yourself. If you fool yourself, you are a fool indeed.
Be honest with your teachers.
Finally, be honest with your parents. Stop blaming your teacher for �giving� you a failing grade. Parents, I do not give grades. When grading enters the picture, I am an accountant who punches numbers into a grade book program. A student unhappy with the result needs to work harder and prepare better.
Parents need to provide the push.
Put these �Bees� into practice and you will have a great school year.
If you ignore these �Bees,� you will get stung.

Salonen combined leopard and organic prints with braiding and a 18th century feel for a dark and eclectic show
Shaman arts and crafts, 18th century anarchy and Eastern philosophies were at core of Heikki Salonen's Paris menswear debut in a conjoined presentation with Laitinen. Leopard and organic prints added a 'flora & fauna' feel to an otherwise constructed collection, in a predominantly black and beige palette. There was a serious amount of tying and belting going on: braided leather on the hips on top of frock coats, strings at the ankles of baggy chinos to keep them off the ground. Frayed sleeves acted a grungy embellishment – but it was the slick control of cuts that held the show together.
Dazed Digital: What is the main theme in this collection, what are you introducing?
Heikki Salonen: I'm introducing menswear, and presenting for the first time on men's fashion week in Paris. Lots of unisex shapes for both men and women.
DD: What was the biggest challenge in the show?
Heikki Salonen: To get the shoes from UPS depot on Sunday. UPS won. We had to improvise. Once again.
DD: What materials are you using - any experimentation there?
Heikki Salonen: Yard dyed Leopard motif cashmere wools, and vintage Japanese twills.

Dorm to be named in honor of former president
PLAINVIEW - The women's dormitory constructed in 2001 at Wayland Baptist University will finally have a name.
In their March 27 meeting, trustees approved a proposal from Dr. Russ Gibbs, vice president for institutional advancement, that the new dorm be named the Wallace and Patsy Davis Hall in honor of Davis' accomplishments while president and chancellor of Wayland.
"Building a new women's dormitory was initiated, designed and completed under Dr. Davis' leadership," said Gibbs. "To name Wayland's newest dorm after the Davises is a fitting tribute to their passion and love for this university."
Davis came to Wayland in the summer of 1991 as president, helping the university institute a series of strategic planning initiatives called Spanning the Centuries, which was highlighted by completion of the Mabee Learning Resources Center in 1996. During his 11-year tenure, he helped oversee campus renovations designed to create a more consistent campus look and feel. Those projects included façade work at Harral Memorial Auditorium, Hutcherson Physical Education Center and the Van Howeling Education Complex, which was also completely renovated to house the university's education and academic achievement departments and the Baptist Student Ministries.
Constructed in the summer of 2001, the women's dormitory features 46 rooms in a suite format, with a shared living room space joining each pair of rooms. The rooms have a private bath and closet space. The dorm also has a laundry room and kitchen facility as well as a large lobby area. It is currently restricted to students who are upperclassmen.
Davis retired May 31, 2002 after serving two years as the chancellor for the Wayland system. He and wife Patsy, a Wayland graduate, live in Salado.
