How To Prevent Moles on Your Face and Body
by Marisa Amorasak
Aesthetically speaking, moles are a confusing and often divided topic. The right statement mole, perhaps above the lip or on the cheek, is eponymous with glamour—it basically made Cindy Crawford's career. And possibly Enrique Iglesias'. But an oversized, protruding, or otherwise distracting mole can carry an unpleasant stigma (Austin Powers in Goldmember, anyone?). A large amount of smaller moles can also take away from a person's appearance and make their skin appear ruddy or blemished. Experts from the American Academy of Dermatology say that the majority of moles form within the first two decades of a person's life. The following tips can help keep unwanted moles at bay afterwards, as well as protect your skin from dangerous sun damage.
What Are Moles, Anyway?
Moles are brown, pink, red, or black spots that can appear anywhere on the body. They're caused by the overproduction of melanin, the substance that dictates skin color and allows our skin to tan. Moles usually start out as smooth, flat spots, but may become raised and even hairy over time. The vast majority of moles are our skin's harmless reaction to clumps of melanin, but a small number (about one in a million) of moles are cancerous and require immediate medical treatment. These moles, called malignant melanomas, are believed to be caused by sunburn during childhood.
The Link Between Moles and Sun Exposure
The key to mole prevention is to avoid prolonged sun exposure. As previously stated, most moles form due to childhood sunburn. Parents should always keep children's skin protected by frequently applying a high SPF sunscreen, using hats, and staying out of the sun between 10 am and 3 pm. Moles can certainly form after childhood, so adults can follow the same guidelines. Be wary of the sun everyday, even on days that are cold or overcast—you never know what the ultraviolet (UV) rays will be like that day.
While no cosmetic treatments are known to prevent moles, there are plenty of in-office procedures that can decrease the look of other skin problems caused by the sun, such as age spots, fine lines, and hyperpigmentation. Laser treatments such as fraxel laser resurfacing and the IPL PhotoFacial can rejuvenate the outermost layer of damaged skin to reveal fresh, clear skin underneath. As for sun-induced wrinkles, injectables like Botox and Restylane can remedy even the deepest lines immediately.
Tung Shu, Cindy Crawford, and Other Beliefs on Moles
Before you go all gung-ho about your moles, be aware that some cultures look to moles as a way to learn more about a person's inherent self. The Tung Shu, also known as the Chinese Almanac, contains a plethora of seemingly auspicious names and dates. The Tung Shu includes some guidelines on mole placement. Think of it as similar to astrology, except the sky is your face and the stars are, er, your moles. A mole on your cheek means that you are destined for fame and fortune, while a melanin cluster on the bridge of your nose may mark you as a tyrant.
A number of celebrities have credited their moles as being a part of their signature look, including Enrique Iglesias, Eva Mendes, Marilyn Monroe, Scarlett Johansson, and Cindy Crawford. Iglesias eventually had the mole on his cheek removed, citing warnings from his doctor that it could become cancerous. Crawford even took part in an advertising campaign for chocolates, in which she licked her mole right off.
Cosmetic Mole Removal Options
Cutting is the most popular way to excise moles. The surround area is numbed with local anesthesia and the mole is cut out of the skin using a scalpel or other sharp precision tool, followed by stitches to close the wound. The upside to cutting out moles is that the process removes every trace of the mole. On the other hand, cutting moles can lead to uneven healing and even keloid scars.
Cauterization removes moles by burning them off the skin. No incision is necessary, but scarring is still possible due to the trauma experienced by the skin.
Laser mole removal creates perhaps the cleanest break from the skin. Unfortunately, lasers have fallen out of favor with dermatologists because they aren't effective on deep-rooted moles.

Now 84 himself, Pope Benedict XVI is clearly starting to slow down.
People felt like they needed some stability and to slow down for a change.
Every time I have burp or my body has an urge to slow down, I tell myself, there is no reason to slow down.
"The time has now come to slow down, to sip Rooibos tea with my beloved wife in the afternoons, to watch cricket," Tutu said.
This effort will slow down the Ahmadinejad government and give them something to worry about.
If the car does not slow down one is thrown out of one's seat, and some of these ridges would destroy if passed at full speed.
Once you are free of the liner I'll slow down so that the black ship will have to slow down, too.
He resolved to make the fog an excuse and slow down to the Nequasset's familiar rate of progress.
Nor were there any wires or relays to impede and slow down communication.
I could only slow down, supremely conscious of how ridiculous it all was.
Old English slaw "inactive, sluggish, torpid, lazy," also "not clever," from Proto-Germanic *slæwaz (cf. Old Saxon sleu "blunt, dull," Middle Dutch slee, Dutch sleeuw "sour, tart, blunt," Old High German sleo "blunt, dull," Old Norse sljor, Danish sløv, Swedish slö "blunt, dull"). Meaning "taking a long time" is attested from early 13c. Meaning "dull, tedious" is from 1841. As an adverb c.1500. The slows "imaginary disease to account for lethargy" is from 1843.
1550s, "make slower;" 1590s, "go slower," from slow (adj.). Related: Slowed; slowing. Old English had slawian (intransitive) "to be or become slow, be sluggish," but the modern use appears to be a 16c. re-formation.

Re: Cannonising the Kelvin
As far as the novels go, there are too many contradictory stories going on. How many different fates for the Romulan Commander from "The Enterprise Incident" have been published? Not fanfic, but officially licensed novels from either Bantam or Pocket? Or backstories for any of the characters? It was just simpler to lob off all of the novels, even Roddenberry's own TMP novelization, than to sort through the literally hundreds of novels and try to pick and choose which one fits, which one is rubbish, etc. And don't even get me started on the various comic books.
And note that Jeri Taylor's Voyager novels ceased to be canon once she left the show.
It's really a very simple rule: Only what made it onscreen counts. And for the writers, don't contradict what came before, with the proviso for the more advanced players, unless you can come up with a really compelling reason to make the previous writer a liar, or you can figure out a way around what came before so that it really isn't a contradiction. And it's really not any more demanding than any other show, so I don't see what the big problem is in sticking to the established record.
Where it gets dicey is when you start trying to toss out stuff that was actually onscreen, which is apparently what was going on when Richard Arnold was doing his master's bidding, and apparently got a little carried away. As has been discussed elsewhere, TAS was never actually decanonized, just put off limits for a while due to the legal issues of the shutdown of Filmation. Once that was resolved, the TAS references came flowing in. As for dumping the third season of TOS and every movie
TMP, I don't think anyone took that seriously, even Roddenberry.
And as far as TFF goes, I still like the notion that the whole thing was a drunken ghost story told around the campfire. It would certainly explain certain bizzare aspects of the story.

AbstractAdvanced experimental methods that can provide quantitative flow field imaging data in hypersonic flows are required for the development of advanced hypersonic technology and the validation of computational fluid dynamic codes. To satisfy this requirement, an evaluation of potential improvements wind tunnel at Wright Laboratories will be conducted. Methodologies for improvement in the measurement of the density, rotational and vibrational temperature of molecular nitrogen well be evaluated in the context of the existing electron-beam source, imaging system, and wind tunnel operating characteristics. Essential features of the electron-beam fluorescence technique to be used in the evaluation include: beam propagation characteristics, spatial resolution, simulation of fluorescence spectra and signal level, and minimum measurement time requirements to maintain an acceptable signal-to-noise ratio. Recommendations will be provided on the design characteristics of an appropriate electron-beam fluorescence imaging system and associated image processing schemes to obtain quantitative flow field measurements of gas density and temperature in a hypersonic flow.

They have less education and lower income, on average, and higher rates of divorce and substance abuse, according to findings released today in the Archives of General Psychiatry. "A lot of them do fine, but there is a small proportion that is in a great deal of difficulty," said Dr. Rachel Klein, a professor of child and adolescent psychiatry at NYU Langone Medical Center in New York. "They go to jail, they get hospitalized." How the study was done Dr. Klein and her colleagues followed 135 white men who had been rated hyperactive by their school teachers back in the 1970s and referred to the hospital. According to Dr. Klein, the children did not have aggressive or antisocial behaviours and would have been diagnosed with ADHD today. They all came from ordinary middle-class homes, Dr. Klein said, and had "well-meaning" parents. When the boys were 18, the researchers established a comparison group of age-matched white boys who had visited their medical centre for unrelated reasons and had not had any problems at school. Based on interviews done when the men were 41 years old, on average, Dr. Klein's team found that those who'd had ADHD symptoms as kids left school 2.5 years before the comparison group. Only four percent had higher degrees versus 29% of their peers. In both groups, salaries went as high as $1.5 million a year. But in the comparison group, the average salary was about $175,000, compared to $93,000 in the troubled children. One in five has antisocial behaviour disorder More than one in five of the hyperactive boys were diagnosed with ADHD three decades later, versus one in 20 in the comparison group. And about a third had been in jail at some point - about three times the comparison rate. They were also more likely to be divorced, abuse drugs and be labelled with antisocial behaviour disorder. However, they weren't more likely to have mood or anxiety disorders. It's not clear from the study that ADHD, per se, puts people at risk. But Dr. Klein said it's likely to be a slippery slope, with ADHD-linked impulsiveness making youngsters more likely to use drugs and spiral downward into crime and other antisocial behaviours. "When you see signs of antisocial behaviour you really have to step in," she told Reuters Health. "You have to keep treating these kids as long as they face problems." It's estimated that between 3% and 7% of school-aged children in the U.S. have ADHD, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Fewer than half will have lasting problems; for the rest, the outlook is better. "The ones who had made it through adolescence were no different from ordinary kids," Dr. Klein said. "Most of them are married, most of them are employed. I think that is a silver lining." Outcomes differ for individuals Dr. J. Russell Ramsay, who studies ADHD at the University of Pennsylvania's Perelman School of Medicine, pointed out that although the kids fared worse than the comparison group, they still were within the normal range in many cases. "We are not talking about awful outcomes necessarily," Dr. Ramsay, who was not involved in the research, told Reuters Health. "There are different outcomes for different individuals with ADHD based on severity and complexity," he added. "This is sort of a reminder to pay attention to the unique needs of the child, the educational environment and the home environment." Treatment options include both stimulant medications and behavioural coping strategies that can help address a child's specific difficulties. "The going phrase is that pills don't teach skills," said Dr. Ramsay. "It is really an individualised treatment planning decision."

I had made reservations 4 months plus ago to stay here for a half marathon. When my husband and I presented at the checkin window, no one was there and we waited for several minutes. I even called the hotel while standing there and got caught in the voicemail loop since no one would pickup. Finally, the clerk came to the desk and asked me if I wanted a room upgrade. I thought it was a suggestive sale comment so declined. She looked surprized that I did not accept her offer. I explained that I was tired and just wanted to checkin, not wanting to drive all over DC looking for another hotel. She then clarified that the upgrade was free and that the hotel (Quality Inn) was on the same property and shared the same parking lot. My husband had noticed that several of the EconoLodge rooms were opened with shabby furniture and ripped up carpet just outside them. (Bed bugs or just remodeling...not sure?) He quickly agreed to the upgrade so we ended up not staying there. Other issues with Quality Inn in Takoma Park but at least the bed and linens seemed clean and bug-free.

The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for observing an astronomical object. More particularly, the present invention relates to a realtime monitor of an astronomical object using speckle interferometry, which is suitable for observation of a double star.
FIG. 5 is a diagrammatic cross section of the stellar speckle camera installed at KPNO (Kitt Peak National Observatory). As shown, this camera comprises: shutters 1, 6 and 10; an image plane detecting mask 2; an objective 3; an atmospheric dispersion compensation prism 4; a wavelength filter 5; an image intensifier 7; a focusing lens 8; a camera 9; a film 11; and a telescope 12. A similar layout is adopted by other image detecting optical systems used in stellar speckle interferometry.
The layout of the optical system shown in FIG. 5 is such that the Cassegrain focus of the telescope 12 coincides with a position of the image plane detecting mask 2 which is just in front of the objective 3 and that the orientation of the optical system is in alignment with the optical axis of the telescope. The function of the image plane detecting mask 2 is to determine whether right focus has been attained. The image in the focus is relayed and magnified by the microscope objective 3. The magnified image is passed through the atmospheric dispersion compensation prism 4 for compensating for the prism effect of air atmosphere. In order to compensate for the image distortion introduced on account of the change in refractive index which occurs through strata of air atmosphere, the image is passed through the prism 4 whose refractive index is changed through layers. The wave-length filter 5 is a combination of a narrow-band (10 to several tens of nanometers) filter and an ND filter and is used to select proper wavelength and adjust the quantity of light. In order to magnify the image and accomplish rapid image detection using the narrow-band filter, the gain of light intensity must be much increased. To this end, a gain of the order of 105 is attained with the image intensifier 7. In order to improve the SN ratio, several hundred images in a short period are consecutively recorded with the camera 9. When taking photographic records of image, the shutter speed is adjusted to be within the range of from 10 to several tens of milliseconds and each picture developed is subjected to the optical Fourier transform and the average power spectrum on the Fourier plane is determined by multiple exposure.
If a TV camera is substituted for the photographic recording, each picture is A/D-converted in 1/60 second and written into a frame buffer memory, followed by the Fourier transform with a computer to determine the average of the power spectra of several hundred pictures.
Another approach is illustrated in FIG. 6: an astronomical speckle image is passed through a lens 21 and focused on the photocathode of an image intensifier 22; the secondary electron image emitted from the image intensifier 22 is recorded as a charge pattern on an electro-optic crystal 23 and read out with a laser beam from a laser light source 24; the readout is subjected to the optical Fourier transform and multiple-exposed on a photographic film with a camera 27 to determine the average power spectrum (see Optical Engineering, vol. 17, No. 3, May-June 1978, pp. 261-263).
The system shown in FIG. 5 involves the need to perform the Fourier transform operation on as many as several hundred pictures by photographic processing. When the TV camera is used, the Fourier transform must also be performed and it takes a considerable time to determine the average power spectrum even if the computer is utilized. The system shown in FIG. 6 also depends on time-consuming photographic processing for determining the average power spectrum. Therefore, a common problem with these systems is their inability to accomplish realtime processing.
An object, therefore, of the present invention is to provide a realtime monitor of an astronomical object using speckle interferometry that achieves realtime execution of multiple Fourier transform operations and produces a high-resolution, normalized average power spectrum image of a double star by dividing the determined average power spectrum of the double star by the average power spectrum of a reference star.
This object of the present invention can be attained by a realtime monitor of an astronomical body using speckle interferometry which includes: first means for producing a still picture from the output of a TV camera having a light-receiving surface disposed on the image plane of a telescope; second means which converts an incoherent picture image into a coherent image and Fourier-transforms the coherent image to obtain a power spectrum; third means for adding the power spectra obtained by the second means; and fourth means which controls the first, second and third means, receives the output of the third means and divides this output by the average power spectrum of a reference star that has been preliminarily picked up by the first, second and third means.
In the system of the present invention, images taken with the TV camera having the light-receiving surface disposed on the focusing plane of the telescope are successively picked up by a frame memory to form the still pictures; the still pictures are not only stored in a microchannel spatial light modulator but also read out with laser light to effect incoherent-to-coherent image conversion; the coherent images are optically Fourier-transformed to obtain the power spectra; and the spectra thus obtained are added in a frame memory and stored therein. The stored average power spectrum is divided by the average power spectrum of the reference star which has been preliminarily picked up, thereby accomplishing realtime-monitoring of the normalized average power spectrum of the double star.
Other and further objects, features and advantages of the invention will appear more fully from the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing schematically the basic composition of a realtime monitor of an astronomical object using speckle interferometry according to the present invention;
FIG. 2 shows an optical system of the realtime monitor shown in FIG. 1;
FIG. 3(a) is a photograph showing the average power spectrum of a double star;
FIG. 3(b) is a photograph showing the average power spectrum of a reference star;
FIG. 3(c) is a photograph showing the normalized average power spectrum of the double star;
FIG. 4 shows diagrammatically the composition of a microchannel spatial light modulator;
FIG. 5 is a diagrammatic cross section of the stellar speckle camera installed at KPNO; and
FIG. 6 shows diagrammatically a conventional apparatus for observing astronomical object using speckle interferometry.
An embodiment of the present invention is described hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As shown in FIG. 1, the realtime monitor of the present invention consists basically of a TV camera 31 attached to a telescope, a frame memory 32, an input monitor 33, an optical system 34, a screen 35, a CCD camera 36, an addition frame memory 37, a computer 38, and a display unit 39. As shown in FIG. 2, the optical system 34 consists of lenses 41 and 47, a microchannel spatial light modulator 42, a laser light source 43, polarizers 44 and 49, an objective 45, apertures 46 and 51, a mirror 48, a half-mirror 50, a Fourier transform lens 52, and an analyzer 53.
The image of a double star taken with the TV camera 31 attached to the telescope is supplied into the frame memory 32 and displayed as a still picture on the input monitor 33. The still picture is focused with the optical system 34 and optically processed in the way to be described later in this specification. The resultant power spectrum of the still picture is projected onto the screen 35, picked up with the CCD camera 36 and written into the frame memory 37. The power spectra of double star images that are successively taken with the TV camera 31 attached to the telescope are written into the frame memory 37 where they are added and stored as an average power spectrum. FIG. 3(a) is a photograph showing the average power spectrum of a double star which was obtained by the above procedure, and the central dark spot represents the shadow produced by cutting the zero order light. The average power spectrum obtained by repeating addition operations a given number of times is forwarded to the computer 38 and therein divided by the average power spectrum of a reference star as shown in FIG. 3(b) which has been preliminarily obtained by the same procedures as described above. The result is as shown in FIG. 3(c), from which one can clearly identify the separation between fringes and their direction. As a consequence, the distance between the two stars which constitute the double star and their direction are displayed on the display unit 39.
The average power spectrum of the double star can be normalized by the following procedures. If the actual two-dimensional intensity distribution of the star is expressed by io (x,y) and if the transfer function of the imaging system including both the telescope and atmospheric turbulence for a sufficiently short period of time that justifies negligence of time-dependent variations of atmospheric turbulence is written as s(x,y), then the intensity distribution of image i(x,y) can be expressed as:
i(x,y)=io (x,y)*s(x,y) (1)
where * signifies convolution.
A Fourier transform operation on equation (1) gives:
I(u,v)=Io (u,v)·S(u,v). (2)
When many photographs of the double star are subjected to the Fourier transform, the average power spectrum is determined as:
<|I(u,v)|2 >=|Io (u,v)|2 <|S(u,v)|2 > (3)
where <. . . > signifies set average.
When another star (reference star) that can be regarded as a point source of light (io (x,y)=δ(x,y) ) is found at a position close to the double star to be observed, consecutive star images in a short period may be Fourier transformed by the equation (3) to determine the average power spectrum as follows:
<|I'(u,v)|2 >=<|S'(u,v)|2 >. (4)
If S and S' can be regarded statistically equivalent to each other (in practical terms, when the double star to be observed is close to the reference star and the two stars can be observed consecutively within a period ranging from several to several tens of minutes), the following relationship is established:
Therefore, in this case, considering the equations (3) and (4), the following equation will hold: ##EQU1##
A detailed description of the optical system 34 is given below with reference to FIG. 2.
The still picture displayed on the monitor 33 is focused with the lens 41 on the photocathode of the microchannel spatial light modulator 42 to be described later in this specification. A charge pattern is formed on an electro-optic crystal on the output side of the modulator 42 according to the secondary electron image emitted from the photocathode. A laser beam from the laser light source 43 is passed through the polarizer 44 to have its quantity adjusted and is thereafter collimated by the combination of the objective 45, aperture 46 and lens 47. A linearly polarized component of the laser beam is selected by the combination of the mirror 48 and polarizer 49 as a readout light and is launched into the microchannel spatial light modulator 42 via the half-mirror 50. The state of polarization of the readout light changes in accordance with the charge pattern formed on the electro-optic crystal 66 in the modulator 42. The light reflected from a charge-storing surface of the electro-optic crystal 66 passes through the aperture 51 and is optically Fourier-transformed with the Fourier transform lens 52 to obtain the power spectrum. The power spectrum image passes through the analyzer 53 and is projected onto the screen 35.
The basic composition and operation of the microchannel spatial light modulator are described below with reference to FIG. 4. As shown, an input optical image 61 passes through a focusing lens 62 and is launched into the microchannel spatial light modulator 42 which comprises a photocathode 63, a microchannel plate 64, a secondary electron collecting electrode 65, and an electro-optic crystal 66. Numerals 67 and 68 denote coherent light and an output optical image, respectively.
After passing through the lens 62, the image originating from the input optical image 61 encounters the photocathode 63 of the microchannel spatial light modulator 42 to be converted to a photoelectron image. This photoelectron image is multiplied by the microchannel plate 64 and forms a charge pattern on the surface of the electro-optic crystal 66. The electric field traversing the crystal 66 is changed in accordance with this charge pattern, causing a change in the refractive index of the crystal 66 by the Pockels effect. When the crystal 66 is illuminated with the linearly polarized coherent light 67, the state of polarization of light reflected from the charge-storing surface of the crystal 66 will change. By making the reflected light with a change in the state of polarization pass through the analyzer 53, the output optical image 68 having a light intensity distribution associated with that of the input optical image 61 is obtained, with the incoherent image being converted into the coherent image. In this connection, it should be noted that the microchannel spatial light modulator 42 with the crystal 66 having a very high electric resistance is provided with a storage capability which permits the distribution of charges on the crystal surface to be retained for more than several days.
As described on the foregoing pages, the present invention enables the realtime execution of many Fourier transform operations which have taken a considerable time in the prior art. In addition, by means of dividing the output average power spectrum by that of the reference star, the double star and other astronomical objects can be observed within a very short period of time and yet the normalized average power spectrum image with high-resolution can be obtained.

The number of Internet domain names grew by nearly 3.5 million in the final three months of 2010 according to Verisign's Domain Name Industry Brief released today.
The report says the total number of registered domains increased by 12.1 million names or 6.3 percent during 2010 bringing the number of registered domain names across all Top Level Domains (TLDs) to 205.3 million.
Two out of three Americans have access to broadband internet
The adoption of broadband internet access slowed dramatically in the United States over the last year according to a recent survey by the Pew Research Center's Internet & American Life Project.
The researchers found that two-thirds of American adults (66%) now have a broadband internet connection at home, a figure that is little changed from the 63% with a high-speed home connection at a similar point in 2009.
World Wide Web surpasses 193 million domains
The World Wide Web grew by 1 million domain names in the first quarter of 2010, according to the "Domain Name Industry Brief" report out this week from Verisign.
The report finds the number of registered domain names ended the first quarter of 2010 with a base of more than 193 million domain name registrations, an increase of 11 million domain name registrations, or 6 percent, compared to the first quarter of 2009.
Sixty percent of Americans get their news both online and offline
According to a recent report from the Pew Internet and American Life Project, the overwhelming majority of Americans (92%) use multiple platforms to get their daily news with the internet now being the third most-popular news platform.
Olympic communications network delivers record numbers
Canadians are well aware of the tremendous achievements by our Olympic athletes but another incredible achievement is the telecommunications network put into place the Vancouver Olympic organization.
NRO warns the world is running out of internet addresses
The Number Resource Organization (NRO), the coordinating group that oversees the allocation of Internet number resources around the world, announced today that less than 10 percent of available IPv4 addresses remain unallocated.
The group is warning that with so few IPv4 addresses remaining, immediate planning for the implementation of the next-generation Internet Protocol (IPv6) is now required or the world could run out of internet addresses.

You are right Thoreauwasright, Criminal damage is on the rise, but people aren't bothering to report it, they know full well that reporting it is a total waste of time, other then getting a crime no. I know of an incident in Norwich recently where 7 cars were damaged on a road, some quite badly (panels kicked in) yet no one bothered to inform the police, because they knew that the police would have little interest and the chances of the offenders being caught were very small. What does that say to you?
