The LOLcats still elicit a laugh out loud, as the initials of those cute, ubiquitous feline JPEGs would suggest. Future generations, however, will probably look back at the LOLcats phenomenon with the same kind of baffled indulgence that today's pop watchers view the popularity of "Laugh-In" during the late 1960s and early 1970s. You have to take it on faith that "Laugh-In" catch-phrases such as "You bet your bippy!" were once the height of hilarity. Signature LOLcat captions like "Ur doin it wrong" or "You has a flavor" already seem frozen in 2007.
LOLcats' appeal rests on two of the engines that drive the Internet's existence: sharing adorable pet photos and participating in techie-informed memes. Beginning with the photo of a perky gray cat asking, "I can haz cheezburger?" LOLcats promulgated the idea that felines, if they could talk, would speak incorrectly like young children. Perhaps it subconsciously emulates the babytalk people use around their cats. LOLcat-speech proves at once inane and infectious – in spite of yourself, you can catch yourself saying "O hai!" in imitation of the standard greeting. It's likely that the similar, dialogue-free "Faildogs" images appeal to a more elite, high-brow class of time-wasters.
Some creative geeks have put fresh spins on the flagging trend. Filk musicians Eben Brooks and Allison Lonsdale use song lyrics made entirely of LOLcats slang for a parody of the Beatles' "Come Together." The Laugh-Out-Loud Cats Sell Out offers an even more ingenious spin on the concept. Cartoonist A. Koford's book suggests how LOLcats would look if, instead of an Internet JPEG meme, they were a vintage, Depression-era newspaper comic strip. The title characters, Kitteh and Pip, are two "hobo cats" who ramble across an impoverished but friendly America and use LOLcats clichés. Koford offers a kind of double-edged parody of contemporary cat JPEGs and old-fashioned, single-panel cartoons like Krazy Kat.
You don't really need to know the classic cartooning of George Harriman or Walt Kelly to understand the hobo setting. Koford's illustrations radiate playful simplicity. The sight of a smiling figure with patched clothes and a bindle trying to cadge a meal has universal appeal. If you don't know LOLcats, however, Kitteh and Pip's dialogue will be gibberish to you. Koford crafts clever sight gags, often transferring high-tech slang into no-tech hobo situations. One panel finds Kitteh in a jail cell, sticking his paw in a cake and declaring, "File not found."
Koford seems particularly inspired by the term "pwned," which means owned, conquered or humiliated and is generally pronounced "pawned." Kitteh and Pip's adventures find multiple puns on pwned, including panels involving a pawn shop, a dog pound, a duck pond, a chessboard and even a boxcar full of corn pone. Some of Koford's references rely on obscure pop geekery. When the cats declare "Itz a trap!" while escaping an undercover police officer, the joke only makes sense if you catch the subtle Star Wars< references (specifically to Return of the Jedi's fish-faced Admiral Ackbar).
The Laugh-Out-Loud Cats Sell Out will only remain fresh as long as readers are familiar with LOLcats, but will bring a lot of pleasure to ones who do. Koford takes the guilt out of a guilty pleasure.

The imminent fifth anniversary of 9/11 provides the proper moment for a good, ol'-fashioned sum-up of the past half-decade under CheneyBush, especially because so much has happened in the past 12-months:
The Bush Administration's Katrina debacle, Iraq being sucked deeper into the civil-war vortex, Afghanistan turning once again into a major war theater, more and more military leaders speaking out about the disaster that is CheneyBush foreign policy, the defection of so many moderate conservatives from their GOP home, the plummeting of Bush's popularity to not much more than his fundamentalist base, the revelation that Bush&Co.…Continue reading
New book: 9/11 and American Empire: Intellectuals Speak Out
Edited by David Ray Griffin and Peter Dale Scott
Olive Branch Press (Interlink Books)
Pre-pub Review (more follow…)
"This is the most important book of our time. Distinguished national and international scientists and scholars present massive evidence that The 9/11 Commission Report is a hoax and that the 9/11 "terrorist attack" has been manipulated to serve a hegemonic agenda in the Middle East. The book's call for a truly independent panel of experts to be empowered to bring out the true facts must be heeded or Americans will never again live under accountable government." — Paul Craig Roberts, Assistant Secretary of the US Treasury during the Reagan administration

WASHINGTON, July 3 — The Central Intelligence Agency has closed a unit that for a decade had the mission of hunting Osama bin Laden and his top lieutenants, intelligence officials confirmed Monday.
The unit, known as Alec Station, was disbanded late last year and its analysts reassigned within the C.I.A. Counterterrorist Center, the officials said.
The decision is a milestone for the agency, which formed the unit before Osama bin Laden became a household name and bolstered its ranks after the Sept.…

The 9/11 Commission made "dramatic changes" to its final report to omit information about the role of Pakistan, according to The Friday Times, a Pakistani weekly. After learning that the report would contain damaging revelations, the Pakistani government dispatched lobbyists to Washington to influence the 9/11 Commission, and may have even paid bribes to Commission members or their staff, the weekly says, citing an official at the Pakistani Foreign Office. "The disclosure sheds doubt on the integrity and honesty of the members of the 9/11 Inquiry Commission and above all on the authenticity of the information in their final report," according to one source cited by the weekly.…
Despite Pentagon stonewalling and intimidation of whistleblowers, the story that a hardline Republican congressman says is "bigger than Watergate" refuses to go away.
Five former operatives of a US military intelligence project say they identified Mohamed Atta and three other men later alleged to have been the lead 9/11 hijackers as suspected al Qaeda terrorists working in the United States more than a year before September 11, 2001. The five whistleblowers say their superiors at the US Special Operations Command chose to suppress the information and keep it from law enforcement authorities, thus protecting Atta and Co.…
A Half-Dozen Questions About 9/11 They Don't Want You to Ask
Source: www.counterpunch.com
By WERTHER
The events of September 11, 2001 evoke painful memories, tinged with a powerful nostalgia for the way of life before it happened. The immediate tragedy caused a disorientation sufficient to distort the critical faculties in the direction of retrospectively predictable responses: bureaucratic adaptation, opportunism, profiteering, kitsch sentiment, and mindless sloganeering.
As 9/11, and the report of the commission charged to investigate it, fade into history like the Warren Commission that preceded it, the questions, gaps, and anomalies raised by the report have created an entire cottage industry of amateur speculation–as did the omissions and distortions of the Warren Report four decades ago.…

The Rice Owls swim team hosts three teams in this Friday and Saturday in the second annual Rice-Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites Medical Center Fall Invitational.Joining the Owls at the fantastic Rice Aquatics Center Competition Pool are Houston, TCU and Incarnate Word in a two-day, 18 swim-event meet that gets under way at 4 pm on Friday (Oct. 26). There are then two more full sessions of the multi-team meet scheduled for Saturday (Oct. 27), which begin at 9 am and 2 pm.
This weekend's invitational provides a new challenge for the Owl swimmers than the one the team faced in the season-opening dual meet almost three weeks ago. Rice head coach Seth Huston said that although the team swam unusually fast in that meet against the Kansas Jayhawks, the season has already evolved since then. Even for a fast swim team like Rice it can be a task to stay in sports' fast lane, so to speak.
"We had a great meet against Kansas, but honestly it has been difficult to maintain the momentum we reached," coach Huston said. "It has been two-plus weeks since the K.U. meet. School has gotten tougher and our training has gotten tougher. In fact we consider this meet to be physically and mentally challenging to our team. We want to see how the team responds."
Coach Huston is like that professor who already has a specific response he's looking for well before assigning that challenging task to the pupils.
"We definitely need to compete this weekend," coach Huston said. "Four different teams racing in each event will really increase the competitiveness in every event throughout the entire meet. I think all of the teams will be coming into this meet in the same training mode as we are. TCU and Incarnate Word will be diving so that will definitely help their scoring. Both Houston and TCU have strong freshmen classes, and TCU has an NCAA qualifier in the sprint freestyle events."
"Because our recent training has become increasingly more difficult injuries tend to flair-up at this time of the year," he explained. "The good news is we will only have one swimmer out this weekend. I have been very impressed with how Erin Flanigan and Stephanie Wei have been training. They have really had some great practices in the last week or two. Most of the team will be competing in their primary events. There should be some great races throughout the weekend."
The Rice-Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites Medical Center Fall Invitational swim schedule is as follows (all distances are short-course yards):
Session I - Friday (Oct. 26), 4 pm start
400 medley relay
500 free

This is pretty funny....
Melissa(Pet Portraits)(More Art)
I tried to login to my IPad. Turns out it was an Etch-a-Sketch and I don't own an IPad. Also, I'm out of Vodka.
Yep, that's pretty funny. I have a feeling a few nutjobs won't like it though and they'll end up going apeshit up against a bus. It's okay to convert to people to christianity, but any other religion or belief system will get a 'Oh HELL no!' every time.
I'm the root of all that's evil, yeah but you can call me CookieSAHMs
Your 'hormones' are no reason to behave like a feral bitch.
Very cute but I am sure it will enrage the other side.
Mom to Keeley and Ronan
I dunno about this. It kinda looks like it's poking fun at some religions. I don't want to be told what to believe, but I don't want to ridicule others. (Except for the Flying Spaghetti Monster site. Now THAT'S FUNNY! OK, so maybe I'm a hipocrite.) Anyway, why drag Santa into the whole mess? Maybe I'm just not really getting it.
At work lots of co-workers (predominately christian) and I always sit around the TV in the morning watching the news and the other morning the topic of this ad came up. I just knew someone was going to start chatting to me about it (they dont know im atheist) but no one did. They just said stuff like "man, atheists are always trying to stir stuff up..." I had a few choice thoughts against christianity myself but didnt voice them. I just stared at the screen trying to listen but it got too loud to hear anything over the christians squawking about it.
Chelle, wife of Michael, mother of Tristan born Jan. 8, 2009 at 4:55 pm.
i liked the comments, especially: "(...) Why do they feel it necessary to 'convert' people?"

Clint Lowery Of Sevendust Warms Us Up For Balloonfest 2014 [VIDEO]
Balloonfest 2014 kicks off tomorrow, here's an interview and warm up vid for you from Sevendust!
Balloonfest 2014 kicks off tomorrow, here's an interview and warm up vid for you from Sevendust!
We have added another band to the Balloonfest line-up and this is one you are going to want to watch. UME is a Texas rock band and we were able to interview their beautiful and talented lead singer Lauren before they come and rock out with us this weekend. You can even find out what local band they say are an inspiration!
It's a painful memory, but ... in the end ... turns out to be one of his favorites!
Buzz shared this lovely song this morning to let some women know thongs aren't for everyone.
I learned a lot of things from this video. Number one most important, koalas can get Chlamydia?! I'm less likely to want a koala now.
Taylor Momsen once again shows she's not only a talented actress and rocker, she can also sing the heck out of an Oasis song. Check out her cover of one of my favorite songs, "Wonderwall."
Last year at Balloonfest we got a visit from an awesome band that goes by the name Young Guns. Not only did we get to see them earlier that year at SXSW but they rocked our KLAQ Balloonfest. Check out the awesome video inside.
I can't wait for the KLAQ Balloon Fest this year taking place May 24 through the 26 th. Duke Keith made a video 6 years ago and it ROCKS!! Check it out!
The Pretty Reckless is one of the hottest bands in rock at the moment, with their current single 'Heaven Knows' topping the rock charts for three straight weeks. In addition, the band's 'Going to Hell' album just debuted at No. 5 on the Billboard Album Chart. With 'Heaven Knows' starting to cross over to pop, Taylor Momsen and guitarist Ben Phillips recently dropped by PopCrush to perform an acoustic version of the track, which can be seen above.
If you have been living under a rock this weekend, we have announced one of the opening bands for the 2014 KLAQ Balloonfest. The Pretty Reckless will be rocking the stage at Wet N' Wild during our Memorial Day Weekend event. Last year we had another beauty rock the stage, Lzzy Hale. I got to interview Lzzy, Arejay and Joe after their performance and let's just say, things got weird!
We took tons of photos of pretty ladies hanging out around Wet N' Wild this Memorial Day weekend. Take a peek, we won't tell.
As I sifted through hundreds of photos from Balloonfest 2013, I realized our team took some great behind the scenes shots of the bands and VIP section. It reminded me how normal rockstars can be. Heck, they're just like us!

Mike Sorabella takes over for Scott Savitz, who resigned Monday.
A day after its previous CEO resigned, Shoebuy.com has a new leader. Effective immediately, Mike Sorabella steps up to the CEO spot; between 2004 and 2010 he was the retailer's chief financial officer. He replaces Scott Savitz, who was CEO since the retailer's founding in 1999.
During Sorabella's tenure as chief financial officer, he led the due diligence and integration process of Shoebuy's 2006 acquisition by InterActiveCorp., or IAC. He also worked as chief financial officer for Shoebuy.com Europe Ltd., the footwear, apparel and accessory retailer's United Kingdom subsidiary. He also held the chief financial officer job at online flowers and gifts retailer Floraflora.com, a company that was co-founded by Shoebuy.com, which also holds a majority stake in the firm.
"Shoebuy has experienced solid growth in the years since its launch and acquisition by IAC, making it one of the leading footwear sites in the country today," says Greg Blatt, CEO of IAC. "Mike Sorabella was instrumental in driving much of that growth. His history of results, coupled with his passion for the industry, make him the right leader to work alongside the outstanding senior management team we have in place to drive continued growth in the business and to further Shoebuy's expansion both internationally and into other adjacent markets."
Savitz has not said where he will work next. Shoebuy.com is No. 87 in the Internet Retailer Top 500 Guide.

ST. SIMONS ISLAND, GA. (AP) - Chris Kirk survived a wild back nine Sunday to win the McGladrey Classic, thanks to one big mistake by Briny Baird that kept him winless in 365 starts on the PGA Tour.
Kirk closed with a 4-under 66 for his second career win, though he received plenty of help from Baird. They were tied for the lead playing the 18th hole at Sea Island when Baird drove into a fairway bunker, the ball blow his feet. He topped a 4-iron that went about 90 yards and into a hazard.
Kirk only had to make par for a one-shot win over Baird (67) and Tim Clark (62).
The victory sends Kirk to the Masters for the first time. He had been living at Sea Island for the last six years until moving back to Atlanta. It was a crushing loss for Baird, who now has six runner-up finishes since the 41-year-old first joined the PGA Tour in 1999.
Kirk finished at 14-under 266.
GOLD COAST, Australia (AP) _ Masters champion Adam Scott won the storm-delayed Australian PGA in his first home event since winning at Augusta National, beating American Rickie Fowler by four strokes.
Scott finished with a 4-under 67 at Royal Pines for a 14-under 270 total. Fowler shot 68.
Scott and Fowler marked their balls on the 12th fairway after a severe storm warning suspended play with Scott holding a one-shot lead. When Scott returned, his iron shot from the fairway nearly holed out for an albatross and he made the 1-foot eagle putt.
Scott moves on to Royal Melbourne next week to defend his Australian Masters title. He will play with Jason Day on the Australian team at the World Cup, also at Royal Melbourne, then play at the Australian Open at Royal Sydney a week later.
ANTALAYA, Turkey (AP) _ France's Victor Dubuisson won the inaugural Turkish Airlines Open for his first European Tour title, beating Wales' Jamie Donaldson by two strokes.
Dubuisson closed with a 3-under 69 to finish at 24-under 264. Donaldson had a hole-in-one at the 16th in a 63.
Tiger Woods and Justin Rose tied for third, four shots back. Woods, who won't play again until the World Challenge on Dec. 5 in Thousand Oaks, Calif., shot 67. Rose had a 65.

SEC proposes to permit public communications in private placement rules
In late August, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) proposed, by a 4–1 vote, to permit general solicitation and general advertising under two of its private placement safe harbor rules. This will come in the form of rule amendments that are mandated by Section 201(a) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (JOBS Act). The first amendment will eliminate the prohibition against general solicitation and general advertising.

Late Jurassic tectonics and sedimentation: breccias in the Unken syncline, central Northern Calcareous Alps

This study analyses and discusses well preserved examples of Late Jurassic structures in the Northern Calcareous Alps, located at the Loferer Alm, about 35 km southwest of Salzburg. A detailed sedimentary and structural study of the area was carried out for a better understanding of the local Late Jurassic evolution. The Grubhörndl and Schwarzenbergklamm breccias are chaotic, coarse-grained and locally sourced breccias with mountain-sized and hotel-sized clasts, respectively. Both breccias belong to one single body of breccias, the Grubhörndl breccia representing its more proximal and the Schwarzenbergklamm breccia its more distal part, respectively. Breccia deposition occurred during the time of deposition of the Ruhpolding Radiolarite since the Schwarzenbergklamm breccia is underlain and overlain by these radiolarites. Formation of the breccias was related to a major, presumably north-south trending normal fault scarp. It was accompanied and post-dated by west-directed gravitational sliding of the Upper Triassic limestone ("Oberrhätkalk"), which was extended by about 6% on top of a glide plane in underlying marls. The breccia and slide-related structures are sealed and blanketed by Upper Jurassic and Lower Cretaceous sediments. The normal fault scarp, along which the breccia formed, was probably part of a pull-apart basin associated with strike slip movements. On a regional scale, however, we consider this Late Jurassic strike-slip activity in the western part of the Northern Calcareous Alps to be synchronous with gravitational emplacement of "exotic" slides and breccias (Hallstatt mélange), triggered by Late Jurassic shortening in the eastern part of the Northern Calcareous Alps. Hence, two competing processes affected one and the same continental margin.

Warm, wet spring puts strawberries at risk
An early strawberry season delights consumers, but growers must keep an eye on this spring's fickle weather to protect their delicate and valuable crop.
"The strawberry crop has come into production two weeks earlier than normal," said Wayne Porter, a Mississippi State University Extension Service agent in Lauderdale County who specializes in horticulture. "All of the rain has caused a lot of additional disease problems. Anthracnose can always be a problem, but with the constant rainfall, it is more prevalent. It puts a spot on the fruit and makes it unusable, because consumers want perfect berries."

While the clip pokes fun at the current poor state of many of the grounds and monuments on the National Mall, the president of the Trust for the National Mall has neither a problem with the attention nor the rally.
"This is a fantastic opportunity to raise awareness about the need to restore the National Mall," said Caroline Cunningham in an interview with the Washington Examiner. She added, "Hopefully, it will result not only in donations to the trust but greater interest in the mall's renovation and restoration."
Now, the only thing that can make a lawn party more destructive is a lawn party in the rain. Think back to Woodstock 1994, when the whole festival turned into a mud pit. Well it looks like the National Mall will catch a break on that front. While Washington, D.C., has been experiencing rain and has been under a few tornado warnings this week, the weekend forecast calls for dry and sunny weather leading up to and during the rally. So keep the umbrellas at home and take those checkbooks out.

Lots has been written about quarantine and closing borders domestically (US) but not much else.
Scientists tell us that EVD can still be in the semen for 90 days.We have heard of stories where male survivors forcefully sleep with their wives which is against the advice they receive during discharge.The wives ends up being infected and die another ethical issueFollowing

- Peizhong Peter Wang added an answer:16Is it possible to test for significance between medians of two groups?To perform a test of significance between means of two groups is well known. But if I use the medians is it possible to test for significance between medians of two groups?
This was I did in one of my papers (PMID 12677268): Can J Gastroenterol. 2003 Mar;17(3):183-6.
"The 95% CI for means were calculated using the conventional normal distribution method. Because there is no available statistical formula to directly calculate the 95% CI for medians, a bootstrap approach was employed (7,8). This technique involved dividing the total participants into subgroups (replicates), from which a random sample is taken with replacement and a new median was calculated each time. After a large number of such experiments, the lower and upper 95% CI were determined from the values at 2.5% and 97.5% percentiles. All the calculations were performed using SAS 8.0 (SAS, USA)"Following
- Kisia Abok added an answer:2Does the MACS cohort data include any information about the health status or mortality of primary partners?
I have read through the forms and documentation for the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study several times, and I am not seeing any health data about life partners having been captured. Regarding "blood relatives," there is some. I would assume that this is a result of "no promo homo."
This hasn't been a bad dream, has it?
I observed several inhabitants living along lake victoria shores who I accidentally know to be HIV positive but they do not know that they are HIV positive and I have advised them to eat plenty of fish and vegetables,and immediately seek medical treatment for any infection. They are healthy and I shall soon invite them for couselling??Following

When we want to define the socioeconomic state of an enrollee, what variables (items or data) should we look at and collect?
Measures are poor, and I tend to agree with Frost. May try address linked to small-area income/poverty rate data (see Hall above); health insurance status/type of health insurance, depending on the circumstances.Following
- Sharon Lawn added an answer:2What is the best measure to rate the core factors influencing the management burden issues that patients with long term conditions are reporting?
Patients are reporting issues such as poor access to care, availability of socio-economic resources and time; knowledge; and emotional and physical energy. (Bee et al. 2014)
The work patients must do to care for their health; problem-focused strategies and tools to facilitate the work of self-care; and factors that exacerbate the burden felt (Eton et al 2014)
Capacity, responsibility, and motivation: a critical qualitative evaluation of patient and practitioner views about barriers to self-management in people with multimorbidity. BMC Health Services Research (Impact Factor: 1.77). 11/2014; 14::536. DOI: 10.1186/s12913-014-0536-y

Have you considered the first tool within the Flinders Program - Chronic Condition Care Planning? You'll find details about it at: http://www.flinders.edu.au/medicine/sites/fhbhru/self-management.cfm
It's called the 'Partners in Health Scale' and it's a 12 item measure that the person self-rates re their knowledge, relationship with health professionals, access, monitoring and responding, physical, social and emotional impacts, lifestyle, etc. The tool has been validated and used in many research trials and in practice as either a standalone to measure change over time, determine client groupings, determine for services which clients would benefit from care planning, etc.
It has been adapted into other languages and used in the US, NZ, Australia, Hong Kong and some other countries.Following

- Olubusayo Akinola added an answer:4Can perception of role be independent of exhibited attitude?
In a sample of healthcare workers, it was deduced that exhibited attitude towards performing a role differs from their perception towards taking up that particular role in a hospital establishment.
Although this sample exhibited a negative attitude, they had positive perception of their role. It seems to me however, that perception and attitude should go hand in hand, and this sample defies my thinking. Any help?
Thanks for your prompt response to my question. The two independent variables for the study in question is perception and attitude. Measured with two different validated instruments, one specifically designed to access attitude and the other measures perception. The responses to the questions are Likert scaled.Following
- Manpreet Khurmi added an answer:95Disease causing Suicidal deaths ?Dear Researcher,
I am very eager to know the answer for this research question.
What are the disease that can lead to increase the suicidal intend of the patient. Because, I had seen a good number of cases of the patients of HIV/AIDS patients commiting suicide due to lack of hope on the life expectecation, social discrimination, compramised life and Family isolations. But as the same, there may be many disease that which can turns the patient mind into suicidal corner.
Please share the answer for my question. I would be very happy if anyone interested to share some of the articles and data of the same mentioned above.
Dear Akshaya,
Broadly speaking, Suicides are seen in pts with Chronic depression, Patients on Terminal illnesses etc. However, one needs to differentiate between attempted suicide and a successful suicide as attempt to suicide could be related to heat of the moment e.g. a students who learns he has failed in an exam. Do see these articles that may answer your query:
1. Leading causes of death in US: http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvsr/nvsr61/nvsr61_04.pdf (Suicide is at 10th)
2. Vulnerability to suicide: http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Suicide/Pages/Causes.aspx
3. Low serotonin levels and suicide: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3819157/
As a research topic, one should differentiate between Trigger due to Physiological/ Stress (in absence of any pathological condition) reasons and Suicide related to Background of any pathological condition (mental, chronic illness, neoplasia etc). As a secondly aim, mode of execution of suicide may also be studied.
Hope this helps!
- Manpreet Khurmi added an answer:10Is it necessary to make the medical records data electronic in hospitals in developing countries? What are the benefits?In Nepal, most of the hospital's records are disposed of after 5 years, so data is also disposed of. Is it correct to do this? Should it be made electronic? Should Bio-statisticians play a role?
Hi Brijesh,
It is important to make Hospital Data electronic. Just sharing some random thoughts:
1. Epidemiological Information: Who knows which part of the world has the highest burden of the disease? Incidences like Minamata disease just point out to this epidemiological correlate.
2. In countries where large number of clinical trials are on-going, such information is highly valuable to identify patients who need newer drugs and can benefit from newer treatment regimens.
3. Patients who are allergic to a particular drug (or inborn errors of metabolism) could easily be maintained in such clinical histories e.g. sulphonamides.
4. Such information can help Government to develop Targeted Behaviour Change Communication strategies to change unwanted behaviours.
5. Can help health financing that is set aside required budget to address health needs of the population e.g. Incidence of Cleft lip/ palate as part of National programme of the country e.g. Rashtriya Bal Swasthya Karyakram.
6. Obstetric History: Impact on next pregnancy
7. Vaccination history: I need not emphasize more
Do Note: Patient history is confidential. In no case this should be made public and should be free form data theft.
- Lateef Mtima added an answer:22What types of intellectual creations can be the subject matter of IP?
The history of the human race is a history of the application of imagination, or innovation and creativity, to an existing base of knowledge in order to solve problems or express thoughts. From early writing in Mesopotamia, the Chinese abacus, the Syrian astrolabe, the ancient observatories of India, the Gutenberg printing press, the internal combustion engine, penicillin, plant medicines and cures in Southern Africa, the transistor, semiconductor nanotechnology, recombinant DNA drugs, and countless other discoveries and innovations, it has been the imagination of the world's creators that has enabled humanity to advance to today's levels of technological progress. I am interested in determining what type of intellectual creations can be the subject matter of IP?
To provide a non-political answer to the question, today most nations recognize IP protection for utilitarian innovation (machines, drugs, some times methods of doing business) under patent and/or trade secret regimes; for original creative expression (books, art, music) under copyright regimes; restricting commercial exploitation of an individual's name, likeness, or persona under publicity rights (not as widely recognized as other forms of IP); and for distinctive source indicators of products or services under trademark regimes. Those are the major categories of innovative or creative output typically recognized as IP; the key is fitting the out put into one of these regimes AND satisfying the regime's particular prerequisites to protection (for example, in the US, fixation in a tangible medium such as on paper or film is a prerequisite to copyright protection, which is not the case for some other copyright regimes).Following
- Olubusayo Akinola added an answer:6Can I compare the results of a PCA from a study with mine using the same questionnaire?
I would like to know if its possible to compare the factor loadings obtained from a particular survey with mine using the same questionnaire. This is to enable me to establish the variables capable of explaining the observed variance in my study and to confirm if there are differences in the item loadings.
Thank you Dr Filipe for being so explicit, I found the links very useful and I feel more confident to continue with my analysis. I also appreciate Prof David, it's a privilege that you look through my questions. Thank you.Following
- Paresh Chandra Ghosh added an answer:18Has anyone examined the effect of breast size on the biomechanics of lifting in industry or health care?
Seems like women with larger breasts would have to carry objects further from the body, with effects on lifting efficacy. But I can't find anything about this.
Yes I do agree with myor her view is considerate.let us leave together some disadvantage of this nature man can help women so peaceful co existence is best. Beside pursue some research to really understand it is problem or not. pcg ChennaiFollowing
- Sandro Rolesu added an answer:16How does one link altitude to a dataset containing latitude and longitude?
I would like to analyse my data by altitude, however I do not have this information in my dataset. Latitude and longitude are recorded. Is there a look-up table which would allow me to link this to altitude?
Edited for clarification: I am using Health Survey data. I would like to examine various participant characteristics by altitude. I have the latitude and longitude for addresses of all the respondents in my survey data. I do not have any data on altitude. Does a dataset exist that is open-access, that I could download and use to link altitude to my existing data?
You can download altimetry 30x30 meters (ASTER GDEM data) based on satellite observation, at the link: http://www.jspacesystems.or.jp/ersdac/GDEM/E/4.htmlFollowing
- Ali Abdil Razzaq Muhammed Noori Aldallal added an answer:4Where we can get a current epidemiological status of obesity and insulin resistance?Is there any specific site for current epidemiological status?Following
- Avi Biswas added an answer:4Do you know what the recommendation is for physical activity and sedentary behavior to health?We know that there are many determinants and barriers to physical activity. Among them are the extrinsic factors such as environmental, socioeconomics, and sociopolitical as intrinsic motivation, self-perception, self-efficacy and level of knowledge.
My questions are: Are people becoming inactive due to lack of knowledge of practical recommendations for physical activity, as well as the volume and intensity to achieve health benefits? Would an intervention program based on the recommendations of health would increase levels of physical activity?
Inactivity and sedentary behaviour are totally different constructs. One (Inactivity) is the failure to be physically active and the prevailing behavioural literature suggests that this has more to do with intention - ie. if your intend to be active, this is is usually a strong motivator to do that behaviour. You can read up more on the theories articulating this Transtheoretical model and the Social Cognitive Theory.
Sedentary behaviour, it has been argued, relies more on habit than intention and has different behavioural constructs - as such, needs to be targeted differently in terms of interventions.
A great discussion paper summarizing the different between the two and the theories that define them is by Dr. Stuart Biddle: http://sporttudomany.hu/Hirlevel/pdf/10/Fit_or_Sit.pdfFollowing
- M. Ricky Ramadhian added an answer:17Can we use mean+/-standard error instead of mean+/-standard deviation when data is non-parametric?I measured cytokines through ELISA in humans, but my values were very skewed since I got huge standard deviation which was nearly 2 fold larger than my mean value.
Shall I use mean+/-standard error instead of mean+/-standard deviation when data is non-parametric?
how about this data if we have data like this?Following
- Greger Lindberg added an answer:36What impact will labeling obesity as a disease have on primary prevention of childhood obesity?The American Medical Association has now joined other organizations in deeming obesity a disease (not just a condition or syndrome). There is hand-wringing about proliferation of pharmaceuticals, surgery, and other medical treatments. What about prevention, and specifically, primary prevention for children? Is there applicable evidence for other diseases to inform us of what to expect for prevention and public health efforts around childhood obesity?
Weight essentially reflects energy intake minus energy expenditure. I think it is wrong to focus on energy intake. We should direct our attention to energy expenditure. A sedentary lifestyle in itself is a strong risk factor for disease and also for obesity. Concentrating on energy intake is rather useless if we do nothing to increase energy expenditure. The latter is probably also much easier to change whereas changing energy intake has at best a short-term but marginal effect on weight.Following
- Masimalai Palaniyandi added an answer:17What is the forward elimination method, SPSS- forward selection or backward elimination?
Data was analysed by SPSS software and the authors mentioned that in the multivariate logistic regression analysis they used forward elimination method
Dear friend Yan Chen,
The both backward and frontward selection or removal methods are used to find the influence of potential confounders (independent variables) and statistical significance on the dependant variables. it is built in or with in Linear Multivariate regression model to see the stepwise regression analysis to see the influence of single variable and multiple variables and also compound variables or factors.
- Javad Amani added an answer:11How we can find the Cut off score of the Scale tool?Suppose I have a Questionnaire for a Stress assessment that contains 30 questions, each question has 5 answers (0- no stress, 1-mild stress, 2- moderate , 3-High stress, 4- Severe stress). The Total score of the 30 question varies from 0 - 120.
How we can categories the Total score (the range of total score is 0-120) into mild , moderate and severe? Which cut off s should l take for mild, moderate and severe?
for likert scale 1 to 2.33 (low), 2.34 to 3.67 (moderate), 3.67 to 5 (high). to do this you should change scoring of your scale from 1 to 5 for each item. then compute the mean of your scale (not sum) and use above method to cut offFollowing
- Ramanathan Krishnan added an answer:99+As a reviewer of a journal, what can/should you do when the author(s) submitted their manuscript simultaneously to two or more journals?Yesterday, I comprehensively reviewed a manuscript for a journal. The review took more than 10 hours of my time and I tried to do my best with more than 43 comments. Unfortunately, today I checked the authors' names and noticed that the manuscript has been recently published (with many faults) in another journal. I am EXTREMELY UPSET that these authors submitted their manuscript simultaneously to (at least) two journals. What did/would you do if you were in my shoes?
This is a difficult situation and the answer is not simple. A s one would qualify this a"much might be siad on bothe sides".
Since I am a retired person I can speak my mind without any bias. young researchers are assessed by their publications, often by numbers and also by the journals. some journals take more than 6 months even to reply. Their problem is that the referees take time, and or proper referee could noe be found easily. whatever it be the young researcher would lose a year before his paper sees the day light. He gets panicky and sends his paper to another journal.. I do not sya that I approve of this tactics but i understand. In my active ays I have ben refereeing papers and i know the difficulty involed. you feel vexed that you consider a paper and unfit but another journal publishe dit. So as some others also have expressed it is all in the game. As long as the paper is a copy or contains incoorect information one could tolerate this. further some jourals ared yong to get papers for their journal and they would gladly publsiha a paper without much caring for the quality. So this situation is not new and it existed 40 years ago too. then the choice was limited but now with mushrroming of categories and journals things get complex.Following
- Sultan Salah added an answer:16What type of statistical analysis should be done in a survey study ?In a survey done in a large population like about 5000 subjects, how to analyze the results statistically ?
Input from the statistician will be of immense help in the conduct of the study and will also help in publication of the study in the reputed journal, nowadays there are various ready made software available in the market . SPSS is widely used in the statistical analysis and accepted by many reputed journals.Following
- Jeffrey E. Jarrett added an answer:23What is the minimum sample size, regardless of total number of population, that can be considered as reliable for performing advanced statistical tests?I have 32 patients with tuberculous meningitis, if I determined the sensitivity and specificity of cerebrospinal fluid adenosine deaminase and I got significant results, does it mean the result can be generalized? Can I determine the predictors of mortality from this sample?
Minimum or optimum sample size is related to your risk of incurring Type ! and Type 2 errors, the assumed standard deviation of the population and the tolerance level. Read a book of statistics of sampling and you will never ask this question again. The issue was solved many years ago.Following
- Muhammad Javed added an answer:13What is being done in your country with the current increase in dengue infection?In my country, dengue cases have increased from around 18000+ in 2012, to 28000+ this year. Deaths due to this viral disease has also increased from 21 to more than 60 this year. How about in your country?
Provincial Governments are actively in mass education of community by media and on improvement of personal health due to this companion, and effective fumigation has resulted in decline of dengue fever this yearFollowing

thank you for the suggestionsFollowing
- Annette Anderson added an answer:1Has anyone seen additional cases of invasive Neisseria macacae disease in humans?We treated a child with Neisseria macacae bacteraemia. In the literature I can not find any other published cases. Does anyone recall - from their own clinical practice - similar cases?
Dear Dr. Schouten; we might have found N. macacae in an oral sample from a Sudanese study participant. But it has only been identified by 16S rDNA sequencing and the 16S sequences of N. macacae, N. mucosa and N. sicca seem very related. The test person was healthy, so the only conclusion you might draw from this is, that N. macacae might have been part of his oral microbial flora.
Kind regards,
A. AndersonFollowing
- Elena Kulikalova added an answer:5What are your reservations with using GIS for health purposes?As it turns, GIS is fast gaining ground with more applications every year. The GIS-health nexus has always been a special one, especially with regard to communicable diseases. As technology drives many facets of health care and research, is the use of GIS still lagging behind? I aim to understand why!
GIS is used not still enough and cause of it is a technical complexity of the product, and lack of IT competence in medical researchers knowledge (there is no information how to use GIS). I think, GIS is not only visualization tool, but also is a possibility for analysis like spatial-temporal spreading and density occurrence of infection disease etc. Researcher can try to use soft EpiInfo 7.0 of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.Following
