Grambling State University President Named
One of the Top African American Presidents at a University
GRAMBLING, LA — It was no surprise to Grambling State University faculty, staff and students that their president Dr. Frank G. Pogue has been named one of the top African American Presidents at a college or university in the United States. Late last week the Atlanta Post announced their top ten African American University and College presidents. Based on their selection Dr. Pogue ranked 9th on the list of presidents. The online publication stated that "Education has been touted as the universal key to success. Black educators for that reason are truly the gifts to our community and those who leads at the highest levels of education are not only to be acknowledged, but celebrated."
Dr. Pogue, who is serving in his fourth presidency, was appointed as the eighth President of Grambling State University in June 2010, after serving for seven months as interim president. Dr. Pogue is a highly respected educator and administrator with a wealth of experience as an agent of positive institutional change and advancement.
Dr. Pogue has had a long and distinguished 47-year career in higher education. When he was selected as president of Edinboro University of Pennsylvania in 1996, he became the first African American to serve as president of a historically white university in Pennsylvania.
When he retired from Edinboro in 2007, the University paid tribute to his extraordinary leadership by naming its newly constructed student center in his honor. His outstanding accomplishments also earned him the title of President Emeritus of Edinboro University.
After his retirement from Edinboro, Dr. Pogue served as interim president of Chicago State University. Over the course of his career, Dr. Pogue has held several other prominent academic positions, including: Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs and Special Programs at State University of New York System Administration; Interim President of State University of New York at Cobleskill; Vice President for Student Affairs at State University of New York at Albany; Senior Medical Research Associate at Meharry Medical College; Founder and Director of Afro-American Studies, Chatham College; and Dean of Students at Philander Smith College in Little Rock.
In May of 2011 Dr. Pogue was awarded the Doctor of Humane Letters degree from the State University of New York Oswego. He also received the Doctor of Humane Letters degree from Edinboro University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Pogue earned a Ph.D. in sociology from the University of Pittsburgh, a master's degree in sociology from Atlanta University, a bachelor's degree in sociology from Alabama State University.
When asked how he felt about being named one of the ten Dr. Pogue stated, "It was a wonderful feeling to see my name listed among successful university presidents. Being president of a university is a special opportunity to work in the interest of students, faculty, staff and alumni. It is even more special to be President of Grambling State University, as the university celebrates its 110th birth year. Despite the small accomplishments I have been blessed to achieve, I attribute the recognition as one of the top presidents to my being President of Grambling, an internationally renowned institution."
The following African Americans were also listed in The Atlanta Post top ten; Ruth Simmons, Brown University; Shirley Ann Jackson, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; Carlton Brown, Clark University; Dr. Julianne Malveaux, Bennett College for Women; Dr. William R. Harvey, Hampton University; Dr. Ivory V. Nelson, Lincoln University; Reverend Dr. Robert M. Franklin, Morehouse College; Dr. Sidney A. Ribeau, Howard University; and Dr. James H. Ammons, Florida A&M University.

Marina Sirtis Fakes
best known for her role as Counselor Deanna Troi on the television series Star Trek: The Next Generation and the four feature films that followed…
Marina Sirtis (born 29 March 1955) is an English-American actress. She is best known for her role as Counselor Deanna Troi on the television series Star Trek: The Next Generation and the four feature films that followed.
Marina Sirtis was born in the East End of London, the daughter of working class Greek parents Despina, a tailor's assistant, and John Sirtis. She was brought up in Harringay, North London and emigrated to the U.S. in 1986, later becoming a naturalised U.S. citizen. She auditioned for drama school against her parents' wishes, ultimately being accepted to theGuildhall School of Music and Drama. She is married to rock guitarist Michael Lamper (21 June 1992 – present). Her younger brother, Steve, played football in Greece and played forColumbia University in the early 1980s. Marina herself is an avowed supporter of Tottenham Hotspur F.C.
Star Trek: The Next Generation
In 1987 Sirtis relocated to the US.
When casting Star Trek: The Next Generation, Gene Roddenberry was inspired to ask the exotic-looking Sirtis to audition for a role after seeing the film Aliens with Bob Justman, which featured the prominent Latina character Vasquez, played by Jenette Goldstein. Sirtis and Denise Crosby initially tried out for each other's eventual role on The Next Generation. Sirtis's character was going to be named Lt. Macha Hernandez, the Security Chief. Gene Roddenberry decided to switch them, and Macha Hernandez became Natasha Yar. Sirtis recalls that on the day she received a call offering her the role of Deanna Troi, she was actually packing to return to Britain, because her six-month visa had expired.
Deanna Troi was a half-human, half-Betazoid. Her Betazoid abilities allowed her to read the emotions of others. Her position on the Enterprise-D was ship's counselor, looking after the crew's well-being and a trusted advisor to Captain Picard with a position seated next to him on the bridge.
Initially, the writers found it difficult to write for Troi and even left her out of four of the first season episodes. Sirtis felt her job was in jeopardy after the first season but was overjoyed when Gene Roddenberry took her aside at Jonathan Frakes's wedding and told her that the season two premiere episode, "The Child", would center on Troi.
Sirtis appeared in all seven seasons of Star Trek: The Next Generation, and her character was developed from a more passive therapist to tougher Starfleet officer. She has stated her favourite episode is season six's "Face of the Enemy", in which Troi is kidnapped and surgically altered to pose as a Romulan. Troi's switching to a standard Starfleet uniform in the same season in "Chain of Command" elevated the character's dignity in Sirtis' eyes, and her enthusiasm in playing her, with Sirtis commenting, "It covered up my cleavage and, consequently, I got all my brains back, because when you have a cleavage you can't have brains in Hollywood. So I got all my brains back and I was allowed to do things that I hadn't been allowed to do for five or six years. I went on away teams, I was in charge of staff, I had my pips back, I had phasers, I had all the equipment again, and it was fabulous. I was absolutely thrilled."
During her time on the show, she became close friends with her co-stars Jonathan Frakes (who played her on-again/off-again lover Commander Riker), Michael Dorn (Lieutenant Worf, also an on-screen love interest) and Brent Spiner(who played Lieutenant Commander Data). Cast members Spiner and Dorn were groomsmen at her wedding.
She usually wore hair-pieces for her role as Deanna Troi in Star Trek: The Next Generation. Sirtis' real hair was slightly shorter, and although curly, was not as bouffant as her character's. However, Sirtis' real hair was used in the pilot episode, and also in the first six episodes of season six, in which Troi sported a more natural looking pony-tailed style. She was also asked to create an accent (described as a mixture of Eastern European and Hebrew) for her character, although her natural accent is English. Over time, the accent was adjusted and became more Americanised.
Sirtis has also reprised her character of Deanna Troi in the feature films, Star Trek Generations (1994), Star Trek: First Contact (1996), Star Trek: Insurrection (1998) and Star Trek: Nemesis (2002). She also appeared in Star Trek: Voyager for three episodes toward the end of the series (1999 and 2000) and also in the series finale of Star Trek: Enterprise (2005).
Sirtis was delighted to get the chance to do some comedy in Star Trek: First Contact and said "I loved it because it opened the door to a different side of Troi we'd never seen before. That door has stayed open and that whole kind of wacky, zany Troi thing has continued into the next movie, which is great for me because I like to do things that are different." Sirtis stated of her role in Star Trek: Nemesis, "I sort of had an inkling that I was going to have a good part in this film because John Logan was such a big fan of the character. So I knew that he would do her some justice."

As a high school triathlete, I had a huge choice put on my shoulders going into college: to compete in NCAA athletics or strictly train as a triathlete. Because of the draft-legal ITU format, I knew I had to be an excellent runner above everything else to be competitive to win races at the world level. Therefore, I decided to run NCAA Division I cross country in college. I knew running experience would get me to that next level for triathlon. With careful thought, I decided to go to Northern Colorado because I loved the coach's use of cross training (and I received a full-tuition scholarship). I thought everything was falling into place perfectly. Unfortunately, college running was getting in the way of my triathlon training. I was unable to go to worlds due to my cross country schedule, and it was becoming increasingly harder to get an adequate amount of cross training in to succeed in swimming and biking. In addition, I was also getting beat down by the running because I didn't have the cross training behind me. On the other hand, I was finally seeing great success in my running. By the end of the outdoor track season, I ran a 37:08 PR in the 10,000m at conference. That race really lit the fire under me, and it really got me excited about running and racing.
As the summer hit, I found out that I had a stress fracture in my tibia. There goes my triathlon season. I found out my body wasn't producing enough estrogen, causing bone weakness and, in turn, a stress fracture. After 4 weeks of rest, and 4 weeks of build, I was finally able to run again in the middle of July. I set my sights on a race in mid-August before starting cross country up again. A couple weeks later, I got a phone call from USA Triathlon. They needed an extra athlete to compete in a team race in Sweden. I told them that I hadn't been training for long, but they understood and had no expectations for me at the race. I knew this was the perfect opportunity to get back to racing. Unfortunately, I would have had to miss the first week of cross country season (team camp). I asked my coach if I could take this opportunity, and he unfortunately said no without hesitation. This really hit me hard. I knew this opportunity would propel me to be a better athlete and give me experience to reach my goals, but I didn't want to let down the rest of my team. In the end, I decided to give up my track and cross country scholarship to race in Europe and train triathlon full time.
Due to my short progression of training before the races, I did not finish as well as I would have liked; however, the knowledge I gained will carry me through to the next level. My experience in Europe is indispensable to my development as an elite athlete. I learned a lot from the two races I was at, and I have been training vigorously since then, working to get to the next level to compete with the best athletes in the world.
I know I made the right choice by forgoing my track scholarship. Although I really miss training with my cross country team, my triathlon training has been more focused than it ever has been. I am swimming with a swim team 5 times a week and running and biking harder and further than I ever have before.In fact, my running has progressed so much more than it did when I was actually training as a NCAA athlete. Crazy how things work out. I can tell I am getting better every day, and I am eager to prove myself this race reason. I know I have stepped up, and I am excited to show off my hard work.
Next stop: Sarasota Pan American Cup

Risk for the baby if the mother is having gestational diabetes during pregnancy.
Gestational diabetes is the sort of diabetic condition where only pregnant women develop. This means that the pregnant woman gets diabetes only when she is pregnant which she never had before. This condition is resulted because either her body doesn't make enough insulin, or the existing insulin cells don't perform normally to reduce her blood glucose level causing diabetes or high blood sugar. Currently in United States approximately 5%of all pregnancies undergo the condition of gestational diabetes per year.
Most of the women with gestational diabetes contribute a birth to healthy children, once they are in control of their blood sugar levels and keep a healthy weight via eating a healthy diet and regular exercise. However, in some situations gestational diabetes can affect both the pregnancy and the baby. Some of the potential risks associated with this condition are listed below.
- Macrosomia or having a baby with a large body size who may need to be delivered through surgical technique or through the cesarean section, instead of delivering naturally via the vagina.
- Hypoglycemic infants with a low blood sugar levels are born and then it should start to breastfeed right away in order to deliver more glucose to the baby. Sometimes they may need to get glucose through a tube into his/her blood stream directly.
- Jaundice where the infant's skin turns yellow and the whites of the eyes has a changed color. This condition is easily fixed and not serious if treated properly.
- The baby may have the Respiratory Distress Syndrome, where he/she is having trouble to breathe and need oxygen or other support.
- The newborn might have low mineral levels in blood leading to muscle twitches or cramps. This also can be treated easily by providing extra minerals.
According to the Barker's hypothesis it was said that the infants whose mothers had gestational diabetes are at higher risk for developing abnormal glucose tolerance, obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus in their early adulthood. Since it is possible to prevent diabetes through lifestyle changes, it is always better to contact your health care provider about diabetes and increased risk from gestational diabetes.
The health care providers will test the woman for having the risk for gestational diabetes when they are between 24-28 weeks pregnant and if the risk is higher than the average, the health care provider may test mothers as soon as she gets to know that she is pregnant and provide appropriate treatments for the condition of gestational diabetes. Currently most of the women with gestational diabetes normally have healthy pregnancies and deliver healthy babies after following a treatment plan given by their health care provider.

Some Cowboys thoughts on Training Camp Eve:
My biggest question as camp opens for the Cowboys here in Oxnard is the offense line. Switching the tackles and adding a pair of new guards creates a challenge for Bill Callahan. How quickly this group meshes will be key with the great defensive front sevens the club will face this season.
I don't think there will be a problem with

Results have been smashing, to the tune of a 16-point margin of victory over four games.
The federal government, if it were in session, would be proud and the Broncos would be rated as better than Proficient at the required tasks, Superior even.
Sunday, the Broncos are going to be tested again, and it will be the toughest test yet.
Ah, but it's just the Dallas Cowboys, you say, a 2-2 team that has already lost to Denver's AFC West rivals the Chiefs (17-16 in Kansas City) and Chargers (30-21 in San Diego). True enough.
But, and this is another one of those BIG buts, if things had proceeded according to Hoyle, the Cowboys would be 4-0 and this matchup would have been one of those marquee matchups all of NFL nation would be looking forward to.
The Cowboys lost to the Chiefs because they couldn't finish off drives, being forced into a late-game field goal after QB Tony Romo went zip for three from the Chiefs 35 with 3 minutes left in the game. A pass interference call allowed the Chiefs to retain possession and run out all but a couple of seconds off the clock.
Romo, who was stellar until the end, finished 32-of-40 in the game for 298 yards, but missed his last five passes.
Against the Chargers, the Cowboys jumped out to a 21-10 lead, but had only seven offensive plays in the third quarter as Charger QB Philip Rivers heated relied on the short stuff. The Cowboys had chances to take the lead in the final quarter, but had two drives stopped deep in Charger territory with fumbles.
Could'a been, should'a been for the 'Boys.
Two losses, too many mistakes in the late going.
That's the way things have been in recent years for the Dallas squad.
Romo is infamous for messing up.
Still … there is talent, especially on the offensive side.
Romo hasn't messed up much this season, completing 110 of 152 passes for 1,017 yards. He has eight TD passes and only one INT and his passer rating of 105.1 is one of the best in the league.
Romo has three cohorts that he utilizes the vast majority of the time, three studs the Bronco D are going to have to slow: Dez Bryant, the monster wideout (6-foot-2, 222), has caught 23 passes for 282 yards and has four TDs; tight end Jason Witten, climbing the all-time receptions list with 827, has 21 catches for 192 yards and two TDs; and running back DeMarco Murray has 356 yards rushing (4.9 yard average) and another 21 receptions for 138 yards.
That's Denver's test — keep up with and surpass the Cowboy four-star offense.
Let's see, Denver has scored 49, 41, 37 and 52 points in its four games averaging nearly 500 yards per game.
Dallas has allowed 5.9 yards per play and 304 yards per game passing, ranking only 27th in the NFL in that department.
Peyton Manning will eat this up — if the Broncos can keep him standing.
Dallas has a more-than respectable pass rush with 14 sacks on the season with defensive end DeMarcus Ware the best with four. Pro Football Focus, the NFL stats experts who grade every player's performance on every play, have Ware as the fourth-best defensive end in the league at this point, with his partner George Selvie, who has three sacks of his own, rated as 13th best.
Manning & Co. are going to have to hurry-hurry right off the bat. That will mean lots of quick stuff to Wes Welker and Demaryius Thomas near the line of scrimmage, perhaps a few short pass routes to running backs Knowshon Moreno and Ronnie Hillman.
I have seen nothing this season that suggests Manning & Co. won't be able to solve these problems and score often.
The key matchup of the day, also a relativley easy one to watch, will be Chris Clark on Denver's right side, trying to slow Ware. He will have plenty of help with Manning's play calls and maybe a stray blocking tight end or two.
The Broncos will figure out a way and we'll all stay unbeaten for yet another week.
I'll take my 4-0 record picking with or against Denver and say the beat goes on: The Broncos pass their toughest test yet, 34-28.

By using a comparative systems biology approach, the goal of this project is to develop understandable models of the metabolism of four different species of lactic acid bacteria (LAB). The central principle is that important aspects of the functional differences between organisms derive not only from the differences in genetic components but also from the interactions between their components. Comparative analyses allow detailed insight in the importance of such interactions, but also allow knowledge transfer. The so-called "omics"-techniques ("genomics", "proteomics", "transcriptomics", "metabolomics") and mathematical and statistical methods are of crucial importance.
SysMO-LAB1, the first part of this project, focused on three relatively simple and highly related LAB, which exhibit important differences in their functional relationship with humans: Lactococcus lactis, the major microorganism used in the dairy industry; Enterococcus faecalis, a major LAB in the human intestinal microbiota and a fecal contaminant in food and water as well as a contributor to food fermentation; and Streptococcus pyogenes, an important human pathogen. These organisms have a similar primary metabolism but persist in completely different environments (milk, feces, skin/mucous membranes/blood). The major regulatory events at the genetic level, the transcription, translation, enzymatic and metabolic level up to the functional level, is quantified and then integrated in iterations between experimentation (all~omics) and modeling (network structure, flux balances, dynamics, control, regulation). The SysMO-LAB1 consortium developed and applied comparative systems biology, based on the hypothesis that important aspects of phenotypic differences are related to the interaction between components, not just their presence or absence. For SysMO-LAB2, the industrially important species Lactobacillus plantarum was included. This was initiated by Nofima, as we have been working with this species in several previous research projects. L. plantarum is found in various environments including plant and meat fermentations, and in the human intestinal tract. It is associated with positive health effects (probiotic). In addition to the comparative analyses between the four species, in SysMO-LAB2 we also focus on diversity and differences within each of the species at the strain level.

LiveTrailer carrying cattle flips on M5 between Taunton and Wellington
This live event has finished
The fire service says the cattle were transferred to another truck and no animals were injured.
The motorway has now re-opened.
It looks as though the lanes have re-opened and traffic is returning to normal.
This is the scene now, captured by Highways cameras:
Information from the Highways Agency shows that lanes one and two northbound just past Wellington are currently closed.
Traffic is building up in the area and is slow moving.
MOTORISTS are being warned to face delays on the M5 after a trailer carrying cattle overturned this morning (July 5).
The crash happened northbound between Wellington (J26) and Taunton (J25) shortly before 8am.
Six large cattle were found in the overturned trailer and the motorway will be closed northbound while they are rescued.
A spokesman for Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Service said: "Upon arrival, crews found one Land Rover and one over turned trailer with cattle inside the trailer. Police and highways on the scene who are closing one lane on the M5.
"Due to overturned trailer with cattle inside, the special rescue team from Bridgwater fire station was also mobilised to the incident along with the rescue tender from Taunton.
"Crews found six large cattle in overturned trailer and are awaiting arrival of cattle lorry from Bridgwater before release. The M5 northbound will be closed during this procedure."

Landed safely and happily in Ghana. Feels good to be back.
Larry's welcomed me as family into his home. And let me tell you, it's luxury compared to the hostel last summer. There's a nice big mirror in the bathroom, a washing machine (!), and his son Orleans and I are watching Ghanaian music videos on a flat screen TV as I type…on wireless internet (slow, but hey).
In Cape Town last week, my friend Kelley and I had stocked up on a big container of milk at Shop Rite, cause I'd thought I wouldn't be drinking it for a while (Shop Rite is the "poor" grocery in Cape Town but luxury in Ghana). Most people I knew here last summer didn't have fridges and didn't really drink milk. Well, not only does the kitchen have a huge fridge, but I have my own in my room. And Larry has a bumper sticker for Shop Rite on his car. Looks like things will be a little different this time.
Posts on the Cape Town art scene coming soon. Ma na bo ekoo.
(Orleans, Larry's son, tells me that's Ga for "see you later." Ga is one of the local languages in Ghana, second most common after Twi.)

So where was the part about mobile phones? And if your going to blame cell phones. Don't forget the ever expanding WiFi internet zones. As well as the change over to the oh so cool and 'new' HD radio. Which is only a change over from analog to digital transmission. All of this could be a contributing factor to the decline of things. But don't put a title onto a clip that doesn't have anything to do with the actual video. sheesh. *shakes head*

Remote-controlled helicopter kills man, 19, in N.Y. park
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS September 5, 2013 5:40PM
In this image taken from video and provided by WABC-TV in New York, investigators stand near a remote controlled toy helicopter, center, that apparently struck and killed a 19-year-old man, top left, Thursday, Sept. 5, 2013, at Calvert Vaux Park in the Brooklyn borough of New York. It wasnt immediately clear how the accident occurred and police didnt immediately say if the man was operating the remote control helicopter he was struck by. (AP Photo/WABC-TV) MANDATORY CREDIT, NO SALES
NEW YORK — A remote control helicopter being flown in a New York City park has struck a teenager in the head and killed him.
Police say the accident occurred Thursday afternoon near a parkway in the Gravesend section of Brooklyn but it's unclear what happened.
Police haven't said if the 19-year-old was struck by a remote control helicopter he was operating or by someone else's. They say he suffered a severe head injury but they don't believe any criminal act was involved.
Enthusiasts are allowed to operate model aircraft in designated parts of Calvert Vaux Park, which features a playground, basketball courts, baseball diamonds and a soccer field.
A group called Seaview Rotary Wings organizes flights in the park. Club members haven't responded to requests for comment.

Xbox 720 will be Always Online… And that's Really Bad.
Personally, I have never been a big fan of the Xbox and always preferred Nintendo and Sony, I'm about to get a really good reason for not being a fan.
The Verge reports that the upcoming Xbox 720 will be always online. That means you won't be able to buy or sell used games since they will be assigned to one account. This is really bad news for single player game fans, I would also imagine pawn shops across the globe are freaking out right now.
Microsoft is taking a DRM/Closed ridden approach to all its newest techs and in my opinion that's not something which will result well for them. Gabe Newell has already labeled Windows 8 as a catastrophe. I sure hope the Xbox 720 won't be another catastrophe.

FINISHED: Yeti Cycles - Ask Us Anything
What sort of maintanence will the switch infinity require? How mechanically, as far you you can share, does it work; should it be thought of as a "floating" (or almost vpp-esque) version of the old circular eccentric link via the simulated rail system and what is the advantage? Why not just fully enclose that bitch with a light cover plate?

to anyone complaining about the price - $250 is pretty reasonable considering you could be paralyzed in a crash, but even more so because a solid knee brace, that you get after ACL surgery to ski, etc, is most often in the $2000 range...and insurance isn't always paying either.

The Argument For Short Travel Bikes - Opinion
I've ridden for the past 18 years, all over, have gone through all sorts of bikes, and now the fleet consists of a 29er hard tail and a stumpy evo. Funny thing is, the hard tail is my "downhill bike"...strong, reliable, big wheels roll over more shit...and the stumpy is mainly just for 30 plus mile rides to lessen the soreness the next day and have a granny for endurance climbing. I'd love to have a DH whip for giggles and maybe some bike park trips, but can't really see why I'd want to push a forty pound beast up the trail only to romp less hard than on a short travel/ hard tail that was ridden up the track. Most of my skills translate to whipping around the neighborhood on a hard tail when I was six or seven years old, so riding bikes that encourage that feeling is what I like. Not against DH bikes, just a traditionalist I guess...

5 Stocks Poised for Breakouts
Tesla Motors
One stock that's within range of triggering a near-term breakout trade is Tesla Motors ( TSLA), which designs, develops, manufactures and sells high-performance fully electric vehicles and advanced electric vehicle powertrain components. This stock has been on fire so far in 2013, with shares up 180%.
If you take a look at the chart for Tesla Motors, you'll notice that this stock recently pulled back off its all-time high of $97.12 a share to its recent low at just under $85 a share. That pullback came on much lighter volume than the upside volume we saw as shares of TSLA soared post-earnings from just under $65 to that $97.12 high. Shares of TSLA are now breaking out above some near-term overhead resistance at $95 a share and it's quickly moving within range of taking out its all-time high at $97.12 a share.
>>3 Big Stocks on Traders' RadarsTraders should now look for long-biased trades in TSLA if it manages to break out above some near-term overhead resistance levels at $96 to $97.12 a share with high volume. Look for a sustained move or close above those levels with volume that registers near or above its three-month average action of 5.71 million shares. If that breakout triggers soon, then TSLA will set up to enter new all-time high territory, which is bullish technical price action. Some possible upside targets off that breakout are $110 to $120 a share. Traders can look to buy TSLA off any weakness to anticipate that breakout and simply use a stop that sits right below today's low of $92 a share. One could also buy TSLA off strength once it takes out those breakout levels with volume and then simply use a stop that sits right below $95 a share or a comfortable percentage point from your buy entry. This current short interest as a percentage of the float for TSLA is extremely high at 37.3%. The bears do not want to see this stock make a new all-time high, since it will just add to any losses they already have. Look for a fast move and short-squeeze to develop if TSLA prints a new all-time high soon.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Roddy White is battling a high-ankle sprain according to ESPN's NFL Insider Adam Schefter.
Falcons WR Roddy White is nursing a high ankle sprain that will make it challenging for him to play today vs. Saints.
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) September 8, 2013
All the reports out of Atlanta did make it seem like Roddy White's injury wasn't that severe. Even though he was listed as questionable that didn't throw up any red flags because he was listed as questionable multiple times last year without missing a game.
#Falcons injury report – WR Roddy White, LB Nicholas and CB Samuel are questionable. Hawley & Bryant are probable. #Saints
— D. Orlando Ledbetter (@AJCFalcons) September 6, 2013
Roddy White himself even promised he would play on Sunday.
#Falcons WR @RoddyWhiteTV on being 100 % for #Saints, "I don't know. I don't give out the inj report. Come Sunday, I'll be ready to go."
— D. Orlando Ledbetter (@AJCFalcons) September 5, 2013
Nevertheless, playing Roddy White in your league seems risky. If he doesn play he'll likely not get the usual workload because the Falcons have a plethora of weapons to work with including wide receiver Julio Jones and tight end Tony Gonzalez. The Falcons also added running back Steven Jackson to the roster in an effort to bolster their ground game.
Falcons and Saints kick off at 1 PM ET, so their inactives will be announced at roughly 11:30 AM. Stay tuned to FanSided.com
[UPDATE] 10:30 am:
According to Pro Football Talk:
A source with knowledge of the situation has confirmed these concerns to PFT, pegging the chances of White playing at 80-20 against.
Even if White plays, chances are he'll be a decoy, with others doing the bulk of the significant running and catching.

Our Unexpected Passover Guest
Nobody expected my grandfather to show up at my apartment for Passover—two months after he died
As Passover approached just a couple months later, I wondered what the holiday would be like. Grandpa's Seders had always opened a door to a magical reality, completely distinct from the quotidian world I inhabited the rest of the year.
We had always read the service all the way through from my grandparents' art deco Union Haggadahs. With a booming voice, Grandpa had told the story of the slaves in Egypt as though it were his own personal drama. My young mind never once questioned the miracles of the Exodus—their reality had been handed down to me by my grandfather, who'd received it from his, and so on for more than 3,000 years.
Year after year, Grandpa had hidden the afikomen, undetected. His sleight of hand was worthy of Doug Henning. By the time the gefilte fish arrived on its china plate, Grandpa would have me on the edge of my seat, wondering where he'd hidden the matzoh.
In our youth, my sister and I balked when we were sent to the front door late in the Seder to invite in Elijah the Prophet. To us, Elijah the Prophet could be no one but the Boogey Man. After all, hadn't Grandpa told us that the Boogey Man lingered by the front door at night?
As a child, I was greatly relieved when Elijah would fail to appear. Now, as an adult, I grieve.
Twelve years have passed since Grandpa died. My husband and I still live in the same tiny apartment, now (thank G-d) crammed with kids. When I begin to prepare for Passover, I inevitably think of my grandfather, who never met my children and would have taken such pleasure in them. Nevertheless, my husband and I try to make our Seders as magical as possible for them. I don't think we have quite the same flair as Grandpa, but the kids look forward to Passover with as much anticipation as I did.
I don't expect Grandpa to visit us again this year. When he appeared to us that first Passover, he knew we needed him. Today, we still miss him. We still wish he were here. But we no longer need reassurances of his unconditional love. His one final visit gave that to us.

molecular genetics
The topic
molecular genetics
is discussed in the following articles:
major reference
heredity (genetics)
Molecular genetics
The data accumulated by scientists of the early 20th century provided compelling evidence that chromosomes are the carriers of genes. But the nature of the genes themselves remained a mystery, as did the mechanism by which they exert their influence. Molecular genetics—the study of the structure and function of genes at the molecular level—provided answers to these fundamental...

Human Genome Project (scientific project)
Science behind the Human Genome Project
Mendel's basic laws of genetics were expanded upon in the early 20th century when molecular geneticists began conducting research using model organisms such as
Drosophila melanogaster
(also called the vinegar fly or fruit fly) that provided a more comprehensive view of the complexities of genetic transmission. For example, molecular genetics studies demonstrated that two alleles...
Molecular techniques
Although overlapping with biochemical techniques, molecular genetics techniques are deeply involved with the direct study of DNA. This field has been revolutionized by the invention of recombinant DNA technology. The DNA of any gene of interest from a donor organism (such as a human) can be cut out of a chromosome and inserted into a vector to make recombinant DNA, which can then be amplified...
molecular structure of genes
Molecular genetics
Molecular genetics is the study of the molecular structure of DNA, its cellular activities (including its replication), and its influence in determining the overall makeup of an organism. Molecular genetics relies heavily on genetic engineering (recombinant DNA technology), which can be used to modify organisms by adding foreign DNA, thereby forming transgenic organisms. Since the early 1980s,...
phylogeny (biology)
Evidence for specific phylogenies
Biologists who postulate phylogenies derive their most useful evidence from the fields of paleontology, comparative anatomy, comparative embryology, and molecular genetics. Studies of the molecular structure of genes and of the geographic distribution of flora and fauna are also useful. The fossil record is often used to determine the phylogeny of groups containing hard body parts; it is also...

Edward L. Tatum (American biochemist)
...who helped demonstrate that genes determine the structure of particular enzymes or otherwise act by regulating specific chemical processes in living things. His research helped create the field of molecular genetics and earned him (with George Beadle and Joshua Lederberg) the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1958.
