There are quite a few excellent toolkits for HTC devices that we have covered in recent memory. They can be very useful tools by helping lower the cost of entry for users trying to safely and easily root their devices, install recoveries, and unlock bootloaders. Now, there are new toolkits for the HTC Explorer, HTC Desire V, and the HTC Desire S.
XDA Recognized Developer hasoon2000, who has developed a large number of toolkits for HTC devices, has added the Explorer, Desire V, and Desire S to the list of supported devices. The features are pretty much on par with his other toolkits, but for those who haven't seen his other releases, they include:
- Get Token ID. Buttons have been replaced and include links.
– Unlock Bootloader (Must place Unlock_code.bin in the folder)
– Install Recoveries
User Provided Recovery
-Flash Kernels provided
User Provided Kernel
– Link to this thread
– Link to PM me if you need a phone unlocked
– Link to the One X+ Development thread
– Boot Into Recovery
– Boot into Bootloader
– Relock Bootloader (must be in fastboot)
– APK Batch Installer (Credits to hamsteyr)
Those familiar with his work will note that the features vary only slightly from device to device. This is perfect for new device owners who want to get through the rooting and unlocking process easily, as well as even more intermediate users who need to install APKs en masse or re-lock the bootloader.
For full details, check out the Desire V toolkit thread, HTC Explorer toolkit thread, or the Desire S toolkit thread.

Recently, we added forums for various new devices. First up is the HTC Droid DNA. HTC's late 2012 flagship packs powerful specs, a remarkably high resolution screen, and sleek curves to make any gadget lover drool. Starting with the screen, the Droid DNA (and its Japanese cousin, the J Butterfly) packs the first 1080p mobile phone display. Given the 5-inch display size, this comes out to a remarkable 440 ppi. Not just pretty to look at, the Droid DNA also packs a punch thanks to its 1.5 GHz quad-core Snapdragon S4 Pro, LTE connectivity, and 2020 mAh battery.
Next, we have the Samsung Galaxy Camera. While not a phone, the Samsung Galaxy Camera is an interesting combination of a high-resolution 16 MP pocket camera and a fully functional Android-powered mobile device. On the Android side, it's powered by a quad-core Samsung Exynos 4412 running at 1.4 GHz. It has a 4.8″ SC-LCD screen, packing a resolution of 1280×720. It comes with a full gig of RAM, and weighs in at a hefty 305 grams. On the camera side, the Galaxy Camera features a 16 MP BSI CMOS sensor. It also features a 28-48 mm (35mm equivalent) optical zoom lens.
Next up are the Desire C and Desire V. Both devices feature single-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S1 processors, half a gig of RAM, and 4 gigs of internal storage. The Desire V's processor clocks in at 1 GHz, and it features a 4″ WVGA screen. The Desire C's processor comes in at 600 MHz, and it features a 3.5″ HVGA screen. Both devices are targeted at new smartphone owners looking for a budget-friendly device.
Finally, we have two US Carrier variants of the Optimus G, LG's late 2012 flagship phone. Powered by the top-of-the-line quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro processor, the device is certainly no slouch. The speedy processor is backed by 2 GB of RAM, 32 GB of ROM, a 4.7″ "True HD-IPS+" panel, LTE connectivity, and a 2100 mAh battery.

All of the University of Georgia's sports teams scored well above the NCAA-mandated cutoff in the latest Academic Progress Rate (APR) figures released by the NCAA this afternoon.
A Division I team with an APR score — a four-year measure of the academic eligibility and retention of athletes – below 930 can face penalties such as reductions in practice time or scholarships if the team also had at least one athlete leave school academically ineligible. Additionally, a team with a four-year APR score below 900, including 930 or less in the two most recent years included in the calculation, can be declared ineligible for postseason play.
Georgia teams incurred no penalties, all scoring 955 or higher. Two posted perfect scores of 1,000: the men's golf and women's gymnastics teams.
The Georgia football team's four-year APR score was 970, compared to a national average in that sport of 948. The UGA men's basketball team scored 960, compared to a national average of 950.
Georgia's APR tied for third among SEC schools in football (behind Vanderbilt and Florida, tied with Alabama). The Bulldogs ranked ninth among SEC men's basketball teams.
Here are the APR's, released today, of the Georgia teams (figures cover the 2007-08 through 2010-11 academic years):
Baseball 955
Football 970
Men's basketball 960
Men's cross-country 967
Men's golf 1000
Men's swimming 967
Men's tennis 970

Moms and Dads, send little Johnny and little Suzy to GA Tech, if they survive the experience they will have a diploma and an inflated sense of their own self-worth. Just be sure they are armed to the teeth and have had plenty of martial arts training so they will have a chance of dealing with the numerous gun an knife wielding "neighbors" they will encounter, who will be trying to rob them, when they are out for a walk.

Great to see Bama is in the top tier. These are stats that should be publicised more often so that recruits can get a bigger picture of each school rather than just athletics.
Interesting that Ole Miss' scores for football were almost at the bottom but their basketball scores were at the top.

The last time this was reported UGA was 2nd only to Vandy.
Second to Vandy, really ??
It's easier to get higher APR's when your athletes are enrolled
in remedial English and other basket weaving classes.
These stats reflect 2 things:
The NCAA academic standards are a joke.
UGA's academic standards are an even bigger joke.
When 58% of this state's total high school graduates are academically marginal,
then you know UGA's stats are based on really watered down coursework.
ANY school can get their APR if the take courses in remedial basketball studies.
But let's not mention Jim Herrick's B-Ball classes.

These numbers are pretty much meaningless unless you list the degrees the football and basketball players are enrolled for. They're mostly laughable degrees that are worthless in the real world job market. Jokes, actually.
Be kind to those homeless wretches pushing shopping carts around. Some of them are former UGA athletic jocks.

June 20th, 2012

Any degree is worthless unless you are in a specialized field like medicine, law, engineering, etc. It's nothing more than a measuring stick used by companies that MAY help get your foot in the door. I routinely hire college grads with general degrees at a pretty low starting salary. I have to pay top dollar for PROVEN talent. Experience on the job trumps a worthless degree any day.

Athens by far the best college town in the top five,maybe they got points for that.

The St. Paul Saints are getting a new stadium, but some people aren't convinced the plan is a home run for the city.
On Wednesday night, members of the public got a chance to weigh in on potential parking issues in downtown, and FOX 9 was there for the meeting.
Watch the video for more information.
If all goes according to the current plan, the new ballpark will be built upon what is now off-street parking for residents by 2015.
Many living in the area said they assumed the plan would account for the loss of off-street parking and create new options -- but that's not part of the plan right now.
Community members argue they never got the chance to weigh in on the plan, which also includes a light rail line to the area. Even so, those who live nearby say parking remains a problem.
While nearly everyone welcomes the stadium and the business it will bring to the area, residents did present an alternative plan; however, they worry the city's mind is already made up.
City officials did not return calls for comment.

Food: ☆☆ ½
Service: ☆☆☆½
Ambiance: ☆☆
Cost: $$
Must try: Taramosalata, Tzatziki & House Bread
Telly's Taverna is your average neighborhood Greek restaurant in Astoria. At Telly's the service is exceptionally friendly but the food, in my experience, was rather mediocre.
The dips were good, especially the Taramosalata and the Tzatziki. Their bread was outstanding!! The rest of the meal though was rather ordinary. We tried the Porgy, which was nothing special as was the grilled octopus, which is usually one of my favorites.
I have to say that my experience at Telly's was disappointing, given that Astoria has so many great Greek food choices like Agnanti, Taverna Kyclades or Aegean Cove.
Here is some of what we ate:
Grilled Octopus
Taramosalata, Tzatziki, Skordalia
Greek Salad

Reporting from San Diego ——If it weren't for Adrian Noble's poor eyesight, Southern Californians might not be gaining new insights into William Shakespeare this summer.
As a lad growing up in Chichester, England, Noble, the future artistic director of the Royal Shakespeare Company, was afflicted with myopia. One day when his optician was "poking about in my eye," he told Noble about his improbable plan to start a world-class theater festival right there in Chichester, featuring some of Britain's best actors.
"I don't think he realized quite what he'd done, actually," Noble said recently of the now legendary impresario-optician, Leslie Evershed-Martin. " Laurence Olivier. Ralph Richardson. Edith Evans was there. Michael Redgrave. Maggie Smith. I mean, it was just astonishing."
From that youthful exposure, Noble began to develop a lasting appreciation for the concept of a theater company that could tackle several plays at once in rotating repertory and in which there were no small parts, only small actors. (For the record, Noble counts many very big actors among his friends and colleagues, including the Oscar winner he refers to as "Danny Day-Lewis.")
Now he's bringing that time-honored idea to San Diego's Old Globe, where he's serving as artistic director of the venue's annual summer play festival. This year's lineup consists of Shakespeare's "The Taming of the Shrew" and "King Lear," along with Alan Bennett's 1991 "The Madness of George III," a fictionalized biographical drama about the 18th century British monarch whose autocratic hubris sparked the American Revolution. Ron Daniels directs "Shrew" and Noble the other two plays, all performed through September in the outdoor amphitheater at the Old Globe's picturesque campus in San Diego's Balboa Park.
Repertory theater is a way of performing, and experiencing, plays that's regrettably rare in the United States, mostly because of the difficulty and prohibitive cost of getting several dozen actors, designers and technicians to sign on to a months-long commitment. Noble, whose recent directing credits include opera productions in Paris and at New York's Metropolitan Opera as well as the hit musical "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" in London's West End, believes that the rewards of repertory festivals are as great for audiences as for actors.
"It gives an audience a chance to get to know a company of players. That's the nice thing," he said. "And sometimes there's a dialogue between the plays, so there's a dialogue between 'King Lear' and 'The Madness of [George III].' And there's a dialogue in a way between 'King Lear,' one of the great middle to late tragedies, and 'The Taming of the Shrew,' one of the early lighter comedies. It gives an audience a bit of a sense of occasion."
To heighten that dialogue, Noble is setting "Lear" in 1776 rather than its usual much older milieu. As the production advances the setting gradually will update to around the time between the 20th century's two world wars, offering a sub-textual commentary on how concepts of monarchy and leadership have evolved through the ages.
Widely regarded as a meticulous student of Elizabethan verse, Noble, 59, has made Shakespeare's works as well as his approach to ensemble-building a cornerstone of his career.
That's hardly surprising for a man who devoted 13 years of his life to running the world's premier Shakespeare company (controversially, at times), who knows the author's oeuvre inside-out, and who last year published a book, "How to Do Shakespeare," that fuses personal anecdotes with practical, hands-on knowledge and astute line readings that illuminate Shakespeare's technique.
But Noble's reverence for the Bard's humanistic universality goes even deeper.
"I think Shakespeare is one of the great civilizing influences in the world. I think he's one of the great unifiers of mankind," said Noble, who once directed "Twelfth Night" in Japan at a time when there were more Shakespeare productions in Tokyo than in London.
"They [the Japanese] just love him. So I think having Shakespeare in a life is a very, very important element."
Noble credits Shakespeare with inventing the structure of the modern repertory company. By writing plays for his own troupe (known as the King's Men, after their patron, King James I), Shakespeare allowed a specific group of actors to mature and take on more ambitious roles over time, Noble said, while the playwright himself grew more artful and sophisticated in his plotting and poetry.
"Lear" is a good play to build a company around, Noble said. Because it contains nine or 10 really good parts, plus a number of solid secondary roles, it allows him to assemble a core group of actors of different ages and experience levels, broadening the casting possibilities for other plays.
Noble's new Southern California playmates appear to have embraced his philosophy of the how and why of creating acting companies. Robert Foxworth, the veteran performer who's scaling the Mt. Everest title role in "Lear" as well as the more manageable part of the would-be healer Dr. Willis in "Madness of George III," said that when Noble communicates with the Old Globe cast and crew he conveys an artistic vision that extends beyond this year's three festival plays.
"He actually started out the first few days of rehearsals doing some exercises with us, finding a sense of unity and give-and-take," Foxworth said by phone last week while weaving his car along the 405 en route to San Diego. "I know if any part of us come back for the next festival season, we're going to be carrying not only these ideas about how to do Shakespeare but how to do theater."
Lou Spisto, the Old Globe's executive director, said the theater's audiences "love the idea of the festival because they love the connection with the actors." Two main challenges in mounting three plays with a team of 25 performers, five designers and multiple directors, Spisto said, are casting a versatile acting company and constructing a set design that's "flexible and adaptive," so the audience will feel that it's watching three distinct-looking shows.

Luxury Safaris in Namibia
The topography in Namibia varies from ragged unforgiving coastline that eventually gives way to plateaus and mountain ranges. Essentially Namibia is a desert nation made up of four distinct geographical areas which possess individual attributes. To the north of the country there is the Etosha National Park, Damaraland, Kaokoland, and the Waterberg Plateau. In the south there are the famous sand dunes that cut harsh orange ridges into the vivid blue sky at Sossusvlei, the Namib Desert, the rocky Fish River Canyon as well as Luderitz. More centrally located is Windhoek (the main airport) and Bushmanland. This diversity attracts and fascinates those who have a pure interest in nature and its wrath on a landscape.
From a population point of view, Namibia doesn't have a dense number of citizens. Those that do live there are from varied cultural and tribal origins. With regards to modern day architecture and industrialisation the influence comes from Germanic origin. Choosing Namibia for your luxury safari will offer you vast and arid landscapes, a stark contrast to other safari destinations such as Kenya, Tanzania, Botswana or Zambia.
Choosing the right locations and game parks in which to base your safari will provide an unforgettable combination of big game, stunning scenery, luxury and privacy; Africa at its best. With remote luxury camps and lodges dotted in a vast rugged landscape, call Opulent Africa to enjoy a perfect safari in Namibia.
The best way to explore Namibia is by light aircraft. Covering vast tracts of land whilst having the perfect aerial view of this unforgiving landscape is the most recommended mode of transport for a Namibian Safari.
The Namib-Naukluft National Park has some fascinating scenery with soaring dunes, vast gravel expanses, majestic mountain ranges and deep sculpted canyons. The park spans nearly 50,000km², it is one of the largest conservation areas on the continent.
Proud looming out of the barren desert are the spectacular Naukluft Mountains. Which are an attractive prospect for any hiker. With high plateaus and rocky mountain faces to traverse one can easily see the challenge and attraction. Towards the centre of the park just close to Sesriem, the Tsauchab River bends gently into the core of the desert. During the rivers journey smooth tunnels have been cut into the sandstone to form the stunning Sesriem Canyon. As the canyon emerges into the desert, it is flanked by the towering apricot dunes a stunning sight not to be forgotten. Towards the end of the river there is a small bar of sand that provides a walkway across to Sossusvlei: a photogenic clay pan punctuated with verdant acacia trees and surrounded by smooth curving dunes of a variety of colours.
A low flight along the western border of Namibia's Skeleton coast, famous for shipwrecks and seal colonies, offers amazing views of the Atlantic coastline to which many ships have fallen foul. Whilst exploring the Skeleton Coasts beautiful scenery you might enjoy a trip over the expansive dune belts to the rugged coast or travel a little way inland to visit a Himba settlement with your professional guide. You may also see lichen fields, and the desert-adapted elephant or the cape fur seal colonies and ancient stone circles.
Then not forgetting the expansive Etosha National Park with its huge saltpans that shimmer with heat during the day. During the arid dry season thousands of animals congregate around the waterholes that surround the pan. Etosha's landscape is very open with spectacular views over the pan that is a draw to good numbers of game throughout the day. The game here is plentiful and there are good numbers of lion, leopard, cheetah, black and white rhino, elephant, giraffe, zebra (Burchell's and Hartmann's mountain) and many other antelope and with over 300 species of bird Etosha is a game viewing paradise.
Namibia is also visited for its desert adapted wildlife which can be found in the vast tracts of land in Damaraland's semi-desert wilderness area. In this region you'll likely see the desert-adapted elephants and black rhino, and local villages that benefit from the small influx of tourism to this region. Towards the southern reaches there are granite domes which rise out of the gravel tracts of land like custodians. A short walk through the domes will take you to the caves inscribed with Bushman rock art.
Namiba oozes scenery for the avid photographer to revel in and is of clear interest to anyone with an interest in animals that adapt to their surroundings and nature at its harshest.

A Guide to Buying Cables For Your Mac (Or Other Gadgets)
By: J.R. Bookwalter
Where To Buy: Monoprice
The reigning king of low-priced cables has to be MonoPrice.com, based out of Rancho Cucamonga, California. Founded in 2002, what started as a small home-based operation has quickly grown into a huge enterprise with more than 150 employees and thousands of rabid fans who flock to the company's quality offerings sold at extremely reasonable prices.
Price isn't the only reason to shop Monoprice — the company also offers reasonable shipping prices, a 30-day money back guarantee, easy returns with no restocking fees and free lifetime tech support on everything they sell. Monoprice also ships to Canada and 26 other countries, making them a good candidate for our international readers.
Remember that $12.99 six-foot AC cable sold by Best Buy? You can get the same item from Monoprice for a mere $1.17 plus a reasonable $2.22 USPS shipping to the East Coast — buy in bulk and you'll save even more, meaning you could get a handful of the same item and still save money over shopping retail.

Constrained estimation of a correlati...
Mplus Discussion
Structural Equation Modeling
Bruce A. Cooper
posted on Thursday, June 28, 2007 - 8:12 pm
Kline (2nd ed., 2005, pp. 179-180, pp 221-222) describes a problem in fitting an SEM or CFA model to a correlation matrix, citing Browne (1982, which I don't have). He uses STATISTICA for his example in Ch8, because it provides "constrained estimation" in its SEPATH module. I've run his Ch8 CFA model in Mplus V4.21 using ML, ULS, & GLS, and although some of the estimates to those in the book are close, there are meaningful differences, some dramatic. Just wondering if Mplus has some way to do "constrained estimation" when using only a correlation matrix, that will provide correct estimates (according to Kline and to Browne). I haven't found anything in an admittedly brief keyword search on site, or in the manual.
Bengt O. Muthen
posted on Friday, June 29, 2007 - 8:00 am
I don't have Kline's book, but Mplus is well-equipped to analyze a correlation matrix. Using WLS, which is an "ADF" estimator in Browne's sense, you can use the Mplus option for correlation matrix input. This will give you the correct standard errors and chi-square taking into account that sample correlations are analyzed. This follows the normal theory results presented in Jennrich (1970) and Steiger and Hakstian (1982). As Browne (1982) points out, analyzing a sample correlation matrix using ML is not always equivalent to the above, correct approach.
Alternatively, a sample covariance matrix can be analyzed while the model is specified for the correlation structure. This is accomplished by using a diagonal matrix pre- and post-multiplying the model correlation matrix, with diagonals capturing the standard deviations of the variables.

You two are great! Thanks for your responses.
I hope you will bear with me, but I've just tried for an hour to do what you suggest and I can't figure it out, and I can't find help in the manual. It seems like I've bumped into a Catch-22. If I specify DATA: TYPE=CORR, I can only use ML or GLS for the continuous vars represented by my corr matrix. If I add the ANALYSIS: MATRIX=CORR, then I get the DOS window flashing on the screen with some errors I can't read, then no output. How do I specify the input data as a corr matrix and still be able to use WLS as the estimator?

I tried to run a simple path Analysis using correlation matrix. I specified the ESTIMATOR as WLS. However, I got an error message as follows:
*** ERROR in Analysis command
Analysis with estimators ML, GLS, and ULS can use summary data.
All other estimators require individual data.
Does that mean with summary data I cannot use Mplus for this kind of analysis if I want to use the ADF estimator? Does Mplus allow a specification of the weight matrix (e.g., the asympototic covariance matrix of the parameter estimates)in the discrepancy functions?
Thanks very much!
Linda K. Muthen
posted on Tuesday, February 17, 2009 - 1:37 pm
No, Mplus does not allow the specification of a weight matrix. You need raw data for WLS.
Antti K�rn�
posted on Tuesday, January 10, 2012 - 2:01 am
I have only a correlation matrix (based on N = 910) to use as an input. Is there a way to do CFA with it? I have read that ML is not in this case appropriate, but would GLS or ULS provide correct results?
Thanks in advance!
Linda K. Muthen
posted on Tuesday, January 10, 2012 - 6:21 am
In Mplus, the analysis of a correlation matrix is allowed only when all dependent variables are continuous. Only the WLS estimator can be used.

A further question: I have specified
DATA: FILE = data.txt;
But then I get the following warning:
*** ERROR in ANALYSIS command
Analysis with estimators ML, GLS, and ULS can use summary data. All other estimators require individual data.
If using WLS can be used, how should it be specified? Thanks again!

What is the purpose of specifying the number of observations when using the correlation matrix as input? Is it to weigh the correlation matrix?
I'm asking because I'd like to do a meta-analytic SEM but I am getting the same error as the previous person. So I'm wondering whether the ML estimation weighs the correlation matrix similarly as the WLS method would.
Linda K. Muthen
posted on Monday, March 04, 2013 - 9:45 am
This simply specifies the size of the sample that generated the correlation matrix. There is no weighting involved.

James H. Carr is chief operating officer for the National Community Reinvestment Coalition, a Washington-based association that promote access to basic banking services for America's working families. He is a member of the Insight Center for Community Economic Development's "Experts of Color Clearinghouse". The views expressed are his own.
The U.S. economy is unraveling at a pace not seen in decades. The more than 650,000 jobs lost last month has contributed to a growing concern that the unemployment rate could rise to 10 percent or higher before the economy rebounds. At the center of the economy's instability is a foreclosure crisis that has claimed 3.5 million homes in the last year alone, and threatens the loss of an additional 8 to 10 million homes to foreclosure over the next five years.
The loss of wealth associated with the collapse of the housing market is staggering. More than $5 trillion in housing equity has virtually evaporated since the foreclosure crisis began. Major stock indexes have also been cut in half, further contributing to decreased consumer confidence, substantially reduced spending, lower productivity, rising unemployment and additional foreclosures.
The magnitude of the economic decline has led many observers to conclude that the current crisis is an "equal opportunity financial nightmare." But, reality paints a different picture.
While few have been able to escape the financial pain completely, African Americans, Latinos, Native Americans and many Asian sub‐populations are bearing the brunt of this national epidemic. Today, as the national unemployment rate rests at 8.1 percent, African Americans and Latinos are mired in double-digit job losses — the unemployment rate exceeds 13 percent for African Americans, is just under 11 percent for Latinos, and is a little over 7 percent for non-Hispanic whites. For young black males, the rate is 25 percent and climbing.

Four Sign to Play at Evergreen
June 2, 2008
Olympia, WA - Women's Basketball adds four more to the 2008-09 roster. Jasmine Horton, LeAsia Jones, Britney Knotts and Sara Skelton have all signed their Letter of Intent to play for the Geoducks.
Horton is a 6' 2" forward out of Foster High School in Tukwila, WA. Averaging 11 points and 5 rebounds per game, Horton is known for her ability to get up and down the court and for her defensive play.
Her senior year, Foster High School advanced to the district playoffs and Jasmine was selected Nisqually 2A First Team-All League.
Horton is interested in pursuing psychology or education while at Evergreen.
5' 11" transfer from Lane Community College & Chico State, LeAsia Jones, is ready to get back into the flow after nursing an injury. While at Chico her game high was 14 points 9 rebounds. Jones attended Oroville High where she averaged 12 points and 10.5 rebounds per game.
Jones plans on studying sports marketing.
Britney Knotts, a 5' 7" Guard from Chemeketa Community College and Mountain View High School in Oregon, averaged 16 points and 8 rebounds per game at Chemeketa.
According to head coach Monica Heuer, Knotts is a, "hard nose player that brings toughness on the perimeter"
At Chemeketa, Knotts earned NWAACC All-League Honorable Mention and voted All-Tournament at the Tacoma Community College Crossover Tournament. Additionally Knotts was voted to the NWAACC Southern Region All-Star Team.
Knotts, who will be a junior, is planning on pre-med studies at Evergreen.
A teammate of Knotts at both Chemeketa CC and Mountain View HS, Sara Skelton plays guard and has a great feel for the game.
Working hard on defensive play, the Junior has average 7 points and 4 rebounds per game.
Skelton rounds out the most recent signees to the team, joining a great incoming class and skilled returners.
"These four will add more depth to every position on the court. We have some talented and hard working individuals that will force everyone to play at a higher level" Says Heuer.

Join us Valentine's Day for an adults-only exposé on the mating habits of giant pandas! The Zoo's own Dr. Love (actually Dr. Pierre Comizzoli, reproductive physiologist and panda reproduction expert) will explain the hands-on approach to make "bow-chicka-Bao-Bao!"
Enjoy complimentary hors d'oeuvres and drinks, decorating treats and taking photos with your sweetheart, and have a Valentine's fortuneteller predict your love life. Plus, you're invited to enjoy a signature cocktail (included with ticket) featuring an intoxicating blend of raspberry vodka and grapefruit juice at the cash bar.
Focusing on panda shenanigans, Woo at the Zoo is a sexually charged evening featuring animal mating facts that might leave you blushing. Space is limited, so get your tickets before they're extinct!
$100 per couple for FONZ members (includes parking!)
$125 per couple for non-members (includes parking!)
Order a special Valentine!
Woo your special someone or just treat yourself – all while helping animals – by adopting a species this Valentine's Day. Your sweetheart will receive one cute animal plushes, a photo, a factsheet, a certificate with a special message from you. Order by February 9th and we'll have your package with a personalized adoption certificate waiting for you to pick up at Woo at the Zoo. Packages will also be available for purchase at the event.

Welcome to AnimalResearch.info
Where you can find detailed scientific information about the use of animals in research. By providing you with the facts we hope to build an understanding about how and why animals are used in science and medicine.
Read our latest updated briefing on Hepatitis C.
The developments in medicine since the end of the 19th century have been remarkable. It is now almost impossible to imagine a time before it was known how the human body fought the diseases carried by micro-organisms. Since then medical research has transformed healthcare, extending and improving the quality of life for millions. Many of these remarkable discoveries would not have been possible without vital experiments on animals.
HIV and AIDS
The FDA recently approved a HIV vaccine for safety trials in humans, and experiments with monkeys and mice have given hope that an effective vaccination may be possible. Research using a relative of the virus which affects monkeys, SIV, has helped scientists to understand why HIV is so deadly, and how this disease can be effectively treated.
Non-Human Primate Research
In December 2011, the Institute of Medicine (USA) released a report which said that although a ban on research using chimpanzees would be inappropriate, at present there were no scientific investigations which necessitated the use of chimpanzees. The USA is one of - few countries where chimpanzee research is still legal. An essay by R E Passingham gives background on types of research which involve non-human primate models, their limitations and their benefits…
Research using dogs
Dogs are used as animal models in a few very specific areas of medical research. Historically, they have been crucial in the development of surgical techniques such as blood and organ transplant. Today, they are principally used in research into heart conditions and safety testing. Find out more…
