Rangers v. Penguins
Madison Square Garden, 7 pm.
Rangers Record: 13 - 12 - 1
Pittsburgh Record: 18 - 9 - 0
The Rangers are looking for a spark. A game to turn around the recent rut that they're mired in. What better game than tonight against a divisional rival who embarassed you 8 - 3 this weekend?
It will be easier said than done, but the Rangers are faced with as close to a must-win game as you can get 20+ games into the season.
One small token for the Rangers troubles is that Pittsburgh forward Matt Cooke, who blindsided Artem Anisimov, is suspended for two games beginning with tonight. That sacrifices a little grit for the Penguins and may give the Rangers fourth line an opportunity to muck it up.
Enver Lisin, who rode the bench the entire game against the Penguins, will be a healthy scratch while Brian Boyle is back in the lineup and will most likely be paired with Aaron Voros and Donald Brashear.
That unit could see some greater ice time tonight.
But physical play is only part of the way to solving Pittsburgh. There are those other cast of characters, Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin. It will be another test for Marian Gaborik and Vinny Prospal to match them offensively, but in reality the key to the game will be better overall defensive play.
With Wade Redden still out, Michal Rozsival has to build off his decent last game and lead the young group. Marc Staal and Dan Girardi, who were predominantly paired against the top Pittsburgh line, will need to tighten up their positioning and physical play on the high powered Penguin offense.
Mike Del Zotto and Matt Gilroy should be thinking defense first and not risk the oddman rushes again, especially considering that both were beat on several occasions during the Rangers recent road trip.
And former first round pick Bobby Sanguinetti finally makes his Madison Square Garden debut tonight. The Rangers coaching staff has been cautious of Sanguinetti's ice-time, playing him around 10:00+ minutes in each of his first two games.
Expect him to see a few more minutes tonight as the defense has to be worn after all the travel and heavy minutes.
Most importantly, the King is back. Henrik Lundqvist, who had a poor showing in Tampa Bay, returns to the nets tonight. The Rangers need a major effort from him in order to be successful tonight.
So stay tuned with us tonight as we host an exclusive Live Game Thread for Blueshirt Bulletin Subscribers! Catch all the latest observations, news, and thoughts straight from the Garden.

Comments On Apr 17, 2014:I like the look of OEM aesthetics on my bikes. I ofter replace plastic to keep them looking good but hard to find stock looking graphics without investing $100 in a set of factory OEM shrouds. Bought these for my 05 Cr250 and using my beat-up oem shrouds as a template, I cut the shorter 05 style wing out of these with the Bolder 04 width "CR" . Looks Good!

Also I've rebuilt http://ngdgc.org as a sort of "test" site for cobbdiscgolf.com. It's all the same content, but I built it from scratch instead of using the MS templates.

Southern Memorial Gardens under new ownership
By AMANDA SCOTT
Staff writer
After years of hardship and dismay, Southern Memorial Gardens cemetery finally has new owners who are trying to return the cemetery to its former status.
On Oct. 1, Southern Memorial Gardens in Dunkirk once again was open for business under new owner Southern Memorial Association Inc., a private, family-owned corporation.
"We've been trying very hard in getting the cemetery back," John Yeatman, one of the co-owners of Southern Memorial Association, said Monday. Since opening three weeks ago, there have been three burials, he said.
The major undertaking of getting the cemetery back to its former state began in July, Yeatman said.
"It was very disheartening to say the least" to see the grounds in the state they were in when Yeatman and co-owner Guy Saxton visited the property in June. The offices were in dire need of repair. Air conditioning units and other equipment had been stolen, and windows were broken and smashed, he said. "It's kind of like walking into a ransacked house."
Since July, Yeatman said the offices were completely gutted and renovated; the mausoleum roof was repaired; traces of mold, mildew and water were remediated; new doors and locks were put in place; equipment and computers were installed.
In 2009, Larry Deffenbaugh, then-owner of Southern Memorial Gardens, was convicted of defrauding 551 people out of funeral and memorial items. Deffenbaugh embezzled funds that were supposed to be used for specific items, including caskets, by using cheaper merchandise and keeping the extra money, according to previous reports. Court records show the alleged thefts and embezzlement occurred between 2005 and 2006 before the business was sold to Daniel and George Martin, owners of Badtec Inc., in 2005.
In July 2011, Badtec Inc., the most recent owner of the 30-acre cemetery, was banned from continuing services at the cemetery after violating a cease and desist order issued by the Maryland Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation Office of Cemetery Oversight, which accused the Martins of operating without a valid license because they were reportedly struggling financially.
The cemetery was foreclosed about the same time, and the Martins filed for bankruptcy in December 2011.
On June 13, Southern Memorial Association Inc. entered into an asset purchase agreement with the cemetery's trustee for the purchase of the personal and real property of Southern Memorial Gardens. On July 25, the bankruptcy court granted the purchase agreement and signed an order permitting the sale.
The cemetery was purchased by Southern Memorial Association Inc. on Sept. 19, and the permit to operate the cemetery was issued Oct. 1, according to the Maryland Office of Cemetery Oversight.
After receiving the operating permit, Yeatman said the corporation received thousands of files the Office of Cemetery Oversight had removed from the cemetery, including plot and burial contracts. The files weren't "in a consistent manner" and needed to be reorganized and re-filed, he said.
"They've been working very diligent on that for about a month and a half," Yeatman said of the two new administrators for the cemetery. He said administrators from a few of the corporation's six other cemeteries have been helping with the files, as well.
Yeatman said through the entire process, one of the things he has been impressed with is "the number of people that came out and that are vested in the cemetery."
Moving forward, Yeatman said the goal is "just to continue working away."
For plot, contract and other questions, or to schedule an appointment with one of the cemetery's counselors, call the cemetery office at 410-257-4300.

Emilie is a 45-year-old, in a town in south-west France. She has always been loved and protected, too much so, perhaps. She seems to have everything, but inwardly knows there is something radical missing in her life. Antoine, Emile's 40 year-old brother, is a top neurologist. A confirmed bachelor, he has only one interest in life: the mystery of the human brain. Emilie and Antoine's 76 year-old mother, Bertha complains that her daughter spoils her and that her son neglects her. Emilie's 41 year-old husband, Bruno, has a discreet elegance that makes him happy to live in the shadow of Emilie. Their daughter, Anne, 19, is in her first year of law school. Lucien, the easy-going 19 year-old adopted son of Bruno and Emilie, often feels out of place in his adoptive family. Khadija, 23, she is a third generation immigrant from North Africa who makes a point of being independent. Her free and easy attitude to sex earns her more scorn than admiration. This is a story of relationships...

The Wonders of Borobudur Temple
Posted on : 30 November 2012
Categories : Culture and Heritage
Been there twice in a year! On my recent trip to Central Java, I visited Borobudur Temple in the early hours to catch the sunrise. Without many tourists around in the morning, the whole atmosphere was calm and surreal. I could count with my fingers how manytimes I really got up very early for sunrise photography. Such trips like this is worth sacrificing some sleep to catch the magical sunrise.
Silhouette of the stupas during sunrise.
The morning mist in the mountains formed a divine backdrop for Borobudur Temple.
Did you know the Borobudur Temple is the world's biggest Buddhist monument?
People from all over the world pay homage to the ancient site that was built in the 9th century. The temple is the most visited tourist attraction in Indonesia. For centuries, no one could see this magnificent temple as it was buried under volcanic ash and only rediscovered in 1815. In 1970s, with the help of UNESCO, Borobudur Temple underwent major restoration work for 8 years. Today, we are fortunate to appreciate the architecture marvel that is widely recognised as one of the Seven Wonders of the World.
Borobudur Temple sits on a hilltop where you can enjoy breathtaking views of verdant rolling hills and the surroundings. Amazingly, the temple was built like Lego blocks interlocking one another without any binder. The three tiers temple is decorated with 2,672 relief panels and 504 Buddha statues. At the top of the temple, you will see the huge stupa that looks like a dome surrounded by the 72 stupas containing Buddha statues.

As visitors, we have to wear the sarong provided.

More beautiful stone carvings decorating the temple. It's believed that Borobudur has the world's largeand most complete ensemble of Buddhist reliefs.
Carvings depicting Karmic effects.
Images of dancers in ancient times.
Me on my first trip to Yogyakarta and of 'cos, Borobudur is a must-see world famous attraction on the itinerary. It only takes about 2 hr 15 min direct flight from Singapore and I flew on AirAsia during the media trip to Yogyakarta.
As seen from the ground level, the Borobudur Temple resembles a giant stupa.
Next, I will be posting photos on Yogyakarta, a beautiful cultural city in Central Java, Indonesia. Stay tuned! For more information on Borobudur Temple, visit Indonesia's official tourism website: Indonesia.Travel Borobudur: A wonder of Indonesia history Borobudur: The colossal Monument of Buddha

The destroyer USS Shaw explodes after being hit by bombs during the Japanese surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, December 7, 1941. More than 360 Japanese warplanes, in two waves, attacked the U.S. naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, in a sneak attack that killed some 2,400 Americans, destroyed 180 aircraft, sank five U.S. battleships and left many more ships of war damaged. (AP Photo)
A telegram regarding the attack on Pearl Harbor. "That morning, we had breakfast, went topside and were waiting for colors," says Memphian Harold Lee. It was just before 7:55 a.m., Sunday. Many of the crewmen were still sleeping. Before the flags were raised, Lee heard the drone of airplanes over Pearl Harbor then saw flames coming from the roof of an airplane hangar. (National Archives)
Memphian Howard G. Lee was standing on the deck of an oil tanker when Japanese dive bombers began attacking Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941. Parked near his ship was the battleship Oklahoma. Lee watched as the Oklahoma began to list. At least one torpedo from a Japanese mini-sub had struck her beneath the water line. Suddenly, the Oklahoma rolled over. "It rolled right, and when the mast hit the water, Marines just stepped off and swam away."
Howard Lee (right) in a 1941 photo taken at Honolulu before the war. Lee was looking forward to a 30-day leave that was supposed to begin the afternoon of Dec. 7, 1941. A 23-year-old Navy photographer, Lee had boarded an oil tanker, the Neosho, for the trip from Hawaii to California. From there, he planned to visit his wife in Memphis and his childhood home in Crawfordsville, Ind. Wayne Panter is at left. Both were Second Class Petty Officers.
This Dec. 7, 1941 file photo provided by the Dept. of Defense shows the USS California, right, after being struck by two battleships and two big bombs during a Japanese sneak attack on Pearl Harbor. Durrell Conner, who coded and decoded messages for the Navy, was aboard the USS California when it sank in Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941. Connor will return with 17 family members to remember those who died in the Japanese attack 69 years ago during the Pearl Harbor Anniversary. (AP Photo/DOD)
Seaman second class Warren McCutcheon, who is thought to be the first person to die during the attack on Pearl Harbor. McCutcheon, a 17-year-old sailor aboard the battleship, USS Maryland, died instantly when struck in the heart by a Japanese machine gun bullet fired by one of the attacking planes. (AP Photo)
Officers' wives, investigating explosions and seeing the smoke pall in distance on Dec. 7, 1941, heard neighbor Mary Naiden, then an Army hostess who took this picture, exclaim "There are red circles on those planes overhead. They are Japanese!" Realizing war had come, the two women, stunned, start toward quarters. (AP Photo/Mary Naiden)

Two men can be seen on the superstructure, upper center. The mast of the USS Tennessee is beyond the burning West Virginia. On Dec. 7, 1941, Japanese Imperial Navy navigator Takeshi Maeda guided his Kate bomber to Pearl Harbor and fired a torpedo that helped sink the USS West Virginia. On Sunday Dec. 3, 2006, Maeda and John Rauschkolb a crewman aboard the West Virginia at the time of the attack, met face-to-face for the first time and shook hands. (AP Photo)

The battleship USS Arizona belches smoke as it topples over into the sea during the Japanese surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. The ship sank with more than 80 percent of its 1,500-man crew, including Rear Admiral Isaac C. Kidd . President Franklin D. Roosevelt announced that it was "a date which will live in infamy" and Congress declared war on Japan the morning after. This was the first attack on American territory since 1812. (AP Photo)

Pronounced "vermay," vermeil is an electroplating process in which 14K gold or higher is coated over sterling silver. Officially designated by the jewelry industry, items may only be sold as vermeil if they have a minimum thickness of 100 millionths of an inch (2.5 microns) of gold over the silver. Regular gold plating is less than 2.5 microns.
The "vermeil" technique of plating sterling silver with gold originated in France in the 1750s. It differs from "gold filled" or "gold plated" in terms of the thickness or thinness of the microns over sterling silver. "Gold filled" pieces have a much thicker layer, between 15 and 45 microns, which is mechanically bonded to the base metal with heat and pressure. Vermeil is a more expensive version of "gold plated". It does not wear off as quickly as gold plating does. However, over time, vermeil wears off and therefore will require re-plating.
Gold/Platinum Embraced Silver or Bronze:
Our platinum and gold embraced collections feature layers of platinum or gold over sterling silver or bronze for a lustrous, radiant finish everywhere you look and touch.
To care for your plated jewelry items:
Zircon often suffers for its name's similarity to "cubic zirconia," the simulated diamond. The stone zircon, however, is actually a beautiful natural gemstone. It is named from the Persian word "zargun," meaning "gold-colored." This is despite the fact that it comes in a wide range of rainbow colors. The majority of zircons are brown or yellow-brown, while pure red and green are the most valuable colors. The yellow-red to reddish-brown variety is called "hyacinth."
For many years, the most popular type of zircon was the colorless variety. More than any other natural stone, colorless zircons produce a brilliant sparkle similar to diamonds. The most popular color today tends to be the bright pastel blue variety. Sometimes called "starlite," blue zircon has recently become considered an alternative birthstone for December.
Zircon is one of the heaviest gemstones, meaning that it will look smaller than other varieties of the same weight. It ranks a hardness between 6.5-7.5 on the Mohs Scale and is mined in Cambodia, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Myanmar and Australia.
Travelers during the 11th century wore zircon amulets for protection and to encourage welcome greetings on their journeys. In the Middle Ages, the stone was said to bring wisdom and prosperity to its owner. Hindu mythology even mentions the gem when referencing the Kalpa Tree, which was a glowing tree covered with gemstone fruit and leaves of zircon.

I will answer then eventually, usually wait for a few guesses first.
Correct answer is San Diego, California. His family moved to American Somoa when he was an infant, and moved back to California just prior to Seau beginning grade school.

Paint Format tool in Google spreadsheets
You can apply formatting or conditional formatting rules you've used on one set of cells to another separate set of cells using the Paint Format tool, where "paint" is used figuratively to describe copying the formatting rules. The types of formats that you can paint are style, fonts, number formats and conditional formatting.
Note: If the range of cells you're painting the formatting across is larger than the source area, the formatting will tile across the target area.
To paint formatting from one area across another area, follow these steps:
- Select the range of cells that contain the formatting and/or conditional formatting rules you'd like to paint across another range of cells.
- Click the Paintbrush toolbar icon.
- Select the range of cells you'd like the formatting to be copied across. The cell formatting will then be applied to the range of cells you've selected.
- This action will override any existing formatting set for the selected cells.
- The range of cells you want the formatting to be copied across doesn't need to be adjacent to your original selection of cells.

Friday, March 29, 2002Charleston, S.C. (March 29, 2002) - After getting only three hits last night, East Tennessee State's bats went completely quiet this evening in Charleston, as The Citadel's T.A. Fulmer spun a no-hit gem at the Bucs, leading the Bulldogs to a 6-0 Southern Conference baseball win. The Citadel (15-11, 8-2 SoCon) go the only run it would need in the second when Jon Aughey led off with a double and moved to third on a ground out. He then scored on another ground out to give the Bulldogs a 1-0 lead. A five-run sixth wrapped things up for The Citadel. The Bulldogs strung together seven consecutive hits off of ETSU (7-16, 1-7 SoCon) starter Reid Casey (Kingsport, Tenn.), with the big blow a two-run bases loaded single off the bat of Will Coker. One run proved to be all that Fulmer would need, as the senior was in control all night, striking out 14 Buccaneer batters. Walks to Ryan Hyder (Erwin, Tenn.) and Tim Turner (Marietta, Ga.) were the only two base runners that Fulmer allowed during the game. Aughey and David Griffin each had three hits to lead The Citadel, with Coker and Chris Ard driving in a pair of runs apiece for the Bulldogs. The two teams will play the final game of the three-game tomorrow at 1:00 p.m.

Sacrificing Isaac
In that moment as their eyes lock, as the child looks at his own father in fear, questioning why, as the father looks down upon his child ready to take the life that he helped bring into the world…in that moment as their eyes lock, irreparable damage is done. In the recording of the remainder of both of their lives, the child never utters another word to his father, and his father never utters another word to God. And God? God waits - waits for that moment to pass - waits for the damage to be done – and THEN says, "Do not lay your hand on the boy or do anything to him."…Don't do anything to him? Isn't it too late for that?

IPL 2012 – Who Are The Main Contenders To Topple Chennai?
IPL 2012 – IPL 5 – The Cricket World Descends On India
The fifth edition of the Indian Premier League gets underway tomorrow and will doubtless dominate the headlines for the next seven weeks as the world's best cricketers descend on India for the IPL 2012.
Reigning champions the Chennai Super Kings are chasing their third staight title as Mahendra Singh Dhoni aims to put recent troubles with the Test team behind him and claim another trophy.
The Super Kings are expected to face stiff challenges from the Mumbai Indians, Royal Challengers Bangalore and the Delhi Daredevils although such is the frenetic and unpredictable nature of Twenty20 any franchise, if they get off to a good start, or find a purple patch at some point in the tournament, could make an outside bid for glory.
Remember, there weren't many of us who predicted victories in the first two tournaments for the Rajasthan Royals or the Deccan Chargers.
Since then, the powerhouses of Chennai, Bangalore and Mumbai have been the dominant forces. Can this be the year that Delhi, the Kings XI Punjab or the Kolkata Knight Riders put together a consistent challenge?
The Pune Warriors have been rocked by the loss of Yuvraj Singh but in Sourav Ganguly, Tamim Iqbal and Michael Clarke they appear to have recruited well and may spring a surprise or two.
With players coming and going throughout the tournament as international cricket continues, the team that manages its resources best will be the champions.
Let us know who you think will win and who you are looking forward to seeing in this year's tournament. We'll update this post with the first of our IPL 2012 podcasts later today and a Mr Predictor IPL 2012 special.

Remember when Gregg Popovich sent home all of his good players before a nationally televised game against the Heat, prompting David Stern to throw a hissy fit and fine Pop $250,000? Stern really taught Popovich a lesson that day! Well, not really:
Spurs just announced Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili are being rested tonight against Golden State ... with Tony Parker (shin) still out, too
— Marc Stein (@ESPNSteinLine) December 19, 2013
This is a nationally televised game, of course, one that was supposed to draw in viewers with the intrigue of a Western Conference Semifinals rematch. There is a very good chance that Pop chose to rest two of his stars for this game in particular just to fuck with David Stern. And for that, we salute him.

Sometime back in an interview, I was asked to write following program:
In a keypad of a mobile phone, there is a mapping between number and characters. e.g. 0 & 1 corresponds to nothing; 2 corresponds to 'a','b','c'; 3 corresponds to 'd','e','f'; ...; 9 corresponds to 'w','x','y','z'.
User should input any number (e.g. 23, 389423, 927348923747293) and I should store all the combinations of these character mapping into some data structure. For example, if user enters "23" then possible character combinations are:
ad, ae, af, bd, be, bf, cd, ce, cf
or if user enters, "4676972" then it can be,
gmpmwpa, gmpmwpb, ..., hnroxrc, ..., iosozrc
Interviewer told that people have written code for this within 20-30 mins!! Also he insisted I have to write on paper.
If I am writing a code then my tendency is as of I am writing production code, even though it may not be expected from me. So, I always try to think all the aspects like, optimization, readability, maintainability, extensible and so on. Considering all these, I felt that I should be writing on PC and it needs decent 2 hours.
Finally after 25 mins, I was able to come up with just the concept and some shattered pieces of code (not to mention of my rejection).
My question is not the answer for the above program. I want to know that is this a right way to judge the caliber of a person ? Am I wrong / too slow in the estimates ? Am I too idealistic ?

This conversation is closed.
Could the increase in wireless technology be the environmental and cellular toxicity factor for the prevalence of autism in modern nations?
The idea is not my own but hoping to promote awareness for further discussion and inquiry. The references below are easily searchable.
A scientific study published in the peer-reviewed Australasian Journal of Clinical Environmental Medicine (acnem.org) warns that radio waves from cell phones may be responsible for accelerating the rise in autism among the world's children.
Dr. George Louis Carlo, co-author of the study, developed a theory that low frequency cell phone signals are harmful to cell function causing the inability to move heavy metals and toxins outside cells.
Here is a collection of other evidence on such question http://www.dailykos.com/story/2012/04/11/1082549/-Autism-Cell-Towers-Electromagnetic-Radiation-Connection-Possibility# It presents a government study of radio waves affecting the DNA and charts showing a correlation between the increase in autism and cell phone usage.
As you may know, the media personalities, Dr. Mercola and Dr. Oz have also warned us of the possible EMR effect on children's neurological development. Dr. Oz even suggested to keep cell phones away from younger children based on some studies he saw.
There are studies that point to the possibility that cell phone signals also affect the bees neurological system and navigation.
Kitty Hawk
Nov 20 2012: A couple concerns: the boom in autism occurred after DSM IV was published in '94 (the closest thing to a canonical psychiatric diagnostic manual), which not only changed the criteria for a diagnosis but also defined the Aspergers variant. That doesn't mean the previous symptoms became more wide-spread. The studies on recent drops in bee populations cite cell phone radiation as interfering with the bees navigational senses, not causing DNA damage.
- +1
Autism research is important, but I wouldn't bet on the cause being cell phones.
pat gilbert
Nov 18 2012: Have you ever noticed that whenever there is funding there is a problem?
- +1
The fact is that Autism is not on the rise it is merely tallied differently many other categories are now thrown in with the category of autism making it look like autism is growing.
Just Google it out Look at the articles
A similar thing is done with household income which has changed in 30 years but the media will tell you it has been falling for 30 years, absolute BS.
Nov 19 2012: if you look at the (non-government) graphs in the link above you will see the correlation of autism rise and the rise of cell phone usage. if the theory of call phone being a factor in autism is right, you may see a plateau on autism as there is one in people getting new cell phones
Nov 19 2012: And that is where you will see that this correlation is coincident and not even remotely scientific.
Not to mention that they have an ad for Elizabeth Warren when you first go to the site. The queen of specious information.
Nov 19 2012: true, but it doesn't have to be scientific to inquire if that could be the environmental causative that some wonder about autism. the purpose of the graph is not to conclude something but to ask if it is just coincidence. actually a similar coincidence is happening in other countries like Korea.Nov 19 2012: The first question has to be is what is the real data other wise you are just chasing your tail.
When the government was funding studies into acid rain there was acid rain no more funding no more acid rain when was the last time you heard anything about acid rain.
Nov 19 2012: if we had the data we wouldn't be asking the question of the possibility. yet there is some indication that radio waves could affect our dna (study with rats), cell in the brains (toxicity not released), and neurological system (bees). but a factor then on autism might be worth exploring.
that something is not talk about it doesn't mean that it went away. it may mean that people didn't care. but certainly you will find people still exploring the angles of things, old and new. it is why many are here in Ted.Nov 19 2012: Usually the data is ignored. Nope if acid rain was important it would be on front page. Agree to disagree.
Nov 19 2012: Acid rain is less of a problem now because the global emission of sulfur dioxides and nitrogen oxides has dropped considerably. Dig a little deeper before you start to make insane accusations (and no doubt projecting your own problems onto me when you'll start your reply to this comment with "do you ahve anything besides conjecture?") Now go back to the topic at hand.
Ken brown
Nov 18 2012: I'm not going to read all of it but back in 2004 i answered a net mag Q about the effective spread of wi-fi and how it will revolutionize connectivity, Apparently i won the best response and was supposedly sent a dvd of some movie or something, which i never received. My reply just stated my belief that to much Em saturation in one area over a long period of time will give rise to slight changes in all organisms within it's field of influence, I'm not saying that your Q proves my statement but back then in nz wi-fi was looked at as the next big thing and i was laughed at in the usual post response comments by everyone even by the editor, it was a tech mag after all.
- +1
This is an area where you won't get any adherents except in commiseration, Phones and wi-fi is too integrated now, if what you state pans out to be 97% right then it would still fall on deaf ears.
I wonder if this is another sign of a race self limiting vehicle being employed, not consciously but a form of it?Nov 19 2012: "Could the increase in wireless technology be the environmental and cellular toxicity factor for the prevalence of autism in modern nations?"
No, it's infinitely more likely the"surge" in autism is due to actual pollution, increased testing, changing definitions and a labor market where autistic people stand out more.
If EM-radiation from cellphones is harmful in any way it would cause cancer, not autism.
Nov 19 2012: some scientist have suggested autism is due to heavy metals toxicity in brain cells. other scientist have suggested that radio waves causes cells to shut and don't clear toxics within.Nov 19 2012: As Pat points out the "epidemic" of autism is largely a difference in diagnosis as psychiatrists are not exactly devoid of self interest. The more autism there is the more need for psychiatrists. If you have a sibling who is autistic, then you are more likely to be autistic, but the autism spectrum is so broad that is almost meaningless to categorize it.
Still---it seems incredible that only 50 years ago only one child in 10,000 was the autistic progeny of a "refrigerator" mom. Now the diagnosis is 1:88 for American children with something like 1:54 for boys.
Even thought the science isn't there, many parents swear that their children became autistic shortly after receiving multiple vaccinations. My prejudice absent any real hard science to rely on is that autism is a combination of genetic predisposition triggered by environmental factors (assuming the diagnosis is correct) such as lead, mercury, pesticides, air fresheners, food dyes, etc.
Cell phones contribute a relatively small amount of EM radiation compared to all the natural and man-made sources i.e. the wiring in your home. Besides, autism is typically diagnosed around age 3, long before children tend to use cell phones.
Nov 19 2012: Children's neurological system is developing at younger age and thus more susceptible to environmental factors than ours. The cell phone radio waves are able now to cross through concrete and your skull. The issue wouldn't be children under 3 using cell phones but the parents that carry both babies and cell phone on most of the time.
Nov 20 2012: Microwaves can't penetrate concrete! Trust me I'm a physics teacher. In fact the single brick walls of my classroom block all cell phone reception, in spite of the fact that there are windows all down one wall. That's why shopping malls have transmitters inside them.
John Smith
Nov 19 2012: Indeed, definitions have been changed and testing increased, this accounts for the fanning out of the spectrum, but as you also point out the number of undeniable, hardcore autism cases that doctors couldn't miss even 50 years ago, has risen as well, and this is indeed likely to be caused by chemicals in our environment and general pollution.Nov 19 2012: I would really like to see some numbers on the level of EMR exposure over time. For example the level of EMR from a cell phone is nowhere near as much as from your old analogue cordless phone you used in the 80's. Also as broadcast TV and radio goes digital the power requirements are reduced by a factor of 10 so there is less incidental exposure from that aswell. Unless you are on the phone all day the exposure from your cell phone is a very small fraction of your total exposure. You get much more from the Sun or from heating your TV dinner in the microwave oven.
- +1
Nov 19 2012: radiation from the sun or microwave doesn't cross concrete and bones at a distance with the intensity that the new 3G, 4G and LTE cell phone signals do
Nov 20 2012: A typical microwave has 10 000 times the power output of a cell phone. And how many people stand right in front of them and watch their dinner go around? Typical cell phones have an average output of 1-2 hundred mW and the tower transmitters are around 100w. Broadcast tv transmitters are up to hundreds of kW. Solar radiation averages around 1000w per square metre, of which a substantial percentage is UV which definitely causes cancer. Unless your child is on the phone for several hours a day cell phone exposure is insignificant.Nov 18 2012: I'll defer to Dr. Oz. Seriously doesn't anyone buy into moderation anymore?
Nov 19 2012: his argument was as a precaution for parents to avoid having a cell phone on when carrying their babies as children's neurological system is developing at younger age and thus more susceptible to environmental factors than ours. The new cell phone radio waves are now able to cross through concrete and skull.

it's really a fine tool. Thank you very much.
But I have one problem.
My dock is hidden at the left side of my screen (Windows 7).
If I move the mouse on the left side, the dock opens and I can see my folders and Icons. This works correctly.
But if I move to a folder, nothing happens. Only if I press the left mouse-button, the folder opens and then and all the other folders, when I move to them.
But the first time, I must always press the mouse-button.
Is this a feature or can I change any option in the preferences.
Thank you very much and excuse my bad English.

sincere / theme
Earnest, without a hint of irony, sarcasm or double-entendre. Sincere says what it feels; it never dissimulates, deceives, or mocks. Of course, the sincere is not always successfully revelatory; things may remain stubbornly hidden -- secret desires, the bubblings of the unconscious. But the sincere is oblivious to such rumblings; it thinks it's giving you everything.
Themes represent basic categories of thought, emotion, or value. While our assignment of themes may at times seem arbitrary or whimsical, they serve to link together artists and movements along non- hierarchial pathways. Follow the themes to look for new disciplines that share qualities with those you already like, or to open up new worlds of Art and Culture.
