AMHERST, Mass. Usually indigestion is a bad thing, but experiments by researcher Peter Chien and graduate student Robert Vass at the University of Massachusetts Amherst recently showed that for the bacteria Caulobacter crescentus, partial degradation of a DNA replication protein is required to keep it alive.
DNA replication is one of the most highly controlled biological processes in all organisms, says Chien, an assistant professor of biochemistry and molecular biology at UMass Amherst. From humans all the way back to bacteria, all cells must faithfully duplicate their genomes in order to survive. To coordinate the start, ensure the completion and repair damages during DNA replication, specialized proteins play a key role by regulating processes.
In work published this month in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Chien and Vass report that one of these specialized replication factors, DnaX, is, to their surprise, partially digested or trimmed, physically cut into shorter fragments, by an energy-dependent protease known as ClpXP, which generates specific-sized fragments that are essential for Caulobacter's normal growth.
The phenomenon isn't entirely unknown, Chien explains. Short as well as long versions of DnaX had been observed 20 years ago in another bacteria, E. coli. But in E. coli, the short form was produced by changes in translation due to an early ribosome stop at a specific RNA sequence. That RNA sequence is absent in many bacteria DnaX genes including in Caulobacter, so scientists long thought that short DnaX only existed in bacteria like E. coli.
Based on previous studies in his lab, Chien and Vass moved on to investigate, by purifying these proteins and testing their activity in Caulobacter in vivo, whether the protein DnaX could be degraded by the protease ClpXP. To their surprise, ClpXP did recognize DnaX, but only partially degraded

In December 2013 I turned 40 and I decided that 2014 would be my year of being BRAVE. My family is very important to me, but I was not taking very good care of myself and it affected how I cared for them.
Instead of spending all of my time and energy caring for other people, I started to put myself first in some areas and concentrated on doing things that made me happy and on breaking habits that were destructive to my physical and mental health. It was a year full of changes that required a little courage on my part, because putting myself first isn't something I'm used to.
I started exercising again (and re-discovered my love for it) and I started making a better effort to get more sleep at night. I began journaling again, taking more time to read, and I started to pay more attention to the food I was nourishing my body with. I took some of the same love and care I'd been showing my family with all of these years and began to apply it to myself.
Oh, and I also dyed my hair green (but that's another story).
It was a life-changing year for me, full of joy that wouldn't have been possible if I hadn't been willing to be brave and face the changes that needed to be made in my life. I want to continue with that momentum in 2015.
What about YOU, my friends? Are you where you want to be?
How many times have you "tried harder" to improve your health? How many times have you "tried harder" than the last time, only to fail again?
Here's a secret: Trying harder has never been your issue.
Instead, you should be trying different. Trying simpler.

Dropbox arrives on Windows Phone, London office opens
Windows Phone users can finally ditch third-party Dropbox apps for the real thing as of today.
Windows Phone users can finally ditch third-party Dropbox apps for the real thing as of today.
The next Nokia Lumia handset is set to be revealed in London next month, bringing a new option to the market for Windows Phone fans.
Microsoft does expect businesses to use Windows 8: it's not just for consumers. However, based on a seminar it held in London this week, its adoption looks like being a long, slow process....
Microsoft's Windows 8 is here, but with no UK launch activities I was slightly dubious as to how many people would drag themselves to central London for Currys/PC World's launch event. So, just how many did?
Asus has unveiled about a dozen innovative Windows 8 machines and some UK prices at a press event in London last night, including touch-screen laptops, "transformers", the twin-screen Taichi, and a fold-flat all-in-one desktop.
The retail group's store on Tottenham Court Road in London will mark the occasion on Friday with a giant touchscreen running Windows 8, and a number of special offers.
Microsoft's 'Smoked by Windows Phone' challenge, introduced at this year's Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, has finally reached the UK under a new name, 'Dare To Live'. Microsoft's Windows Phone teams kicked off the campaign this weekend in London, visiting Oxford Street, Camden, Shoreditch, Tottenham Court Road and Westfield (White City).
Transport for London's data feed has returned and is now hosted on Microsoft's Windows Azure cloud product.On Monday Microsoft announced that Transport for London (TfL) had mounted its data feed on the Windows Azure platform.
Dell showed off a raft of new products in London yesterday, including the Inspiron Duo netbook/tablet, an all-in-one touch screen PC, an M101z netbook, and the latest Dell Streak mobile phone. One of Dell's staff also had a Venue Pro running Windows Phone 7.
The Information Security Forum CEO talks to ZDNet UK at the RSA Conference in London about how businesses will greet Windows 7
Microsoft could do more to simplify its software licensing, according to the company's chief executive Steve Ballmer. Speaking at a Windows 7 event in London on Monday, he said that Microsoft's licence terms could be made clearer, but that any simplifications could result in extra costs for its customers.
ZDNet UK was at Microsoft's London HQ yesterday, listening to Steve Ballmer talk about Windows 7, Server 2008 R2 and matters appertaining. We weren't allowed to ask questions, although customers in the audience were.
ZDNet UK was at Microsoft's London HQ yesterday, listening to Steve Ballmer talk about Windows 7, Server 2008 R2 and pertaining matters.
Windows XP Mode is very much like an East London hooker: sure, they work really hard but they aren't very good to look at. Windows XP Mode does indeed work extremely well, but doesn't always look very pretty.
Speaking to developers in London, Steve Ballmer has said Microsoft is developing a cloud-computing OS, tentatively entitled 'Windows Cloud'
The Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 is one of the most anticipated Windows Mobile devices given that SE is joining the ranks of Windows Mobile and the unique design features. With a confirmed T-Mobile USA 3G version coming I will be buying this device to use with my T-Mobile account as soon as I can. Today Sony Ericsson held an exclusive media preview event in London and Paul at MoDaCo covered it live. Arne Hess also posted a video with some hands-on time with the XPERIA X1.
It seems to be tough for Windows Mobile OEMs to keep the lid on new products and HTC has as much trouble as everyone else since all the details on the HTC Diamond were revealed online last week. That didn't stop HTC from holding a special event in London to announce a single device, the HTC Diamond. The Diamond is a Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional device with an innovative new TouchFLO 3D UI. It will be available in Europe in June and elsewhere in the second half of 2008. There is no pricing information available yet.
There is lots of speculation surrounding the special invite-only May 6th HTC event being held for 100 selected members of the press in London. Are we going to see a Google Android device, a new HTC form factor Windows Mobile device, or another iteration of an existing Windows Mobile device? Arne over at th::unwired posted a leaked photo submitted to Mobile Review that shows possibly two new HTC devices. HTC is also kicking off a new North American brand campaign to create more brand awareness of their excellent Windows Mobile products.
At an event in London on Wednesday, Microsoft launched Windows Server 2008 and Visual Studio 2008, and announced that SQL Server 2008 will be available later this year
Microsoft have billed today's triple UK launch of Windows Server 2008 along with SQL Server and Visual Studio at the Wellcome Centre in central London. Microsoft is demanding the full attention of a lot of journalists (possible as many as 60 all told) to outline the new products.

You know how some themes have a divider image at the bottom of each post? (for an example, see Connections at http://playwith.wpthemes.info/index.php?wptheme=Connections)
I want to be able to have multiple divider images and control which one is used for each post.
I tried using a rotate PHP script and that works to rotate the images, but I was thinking I would like ot control which image shows up by maybe adding a special tag at the bottom of each post - something like:
<?php img_divider("chocolate"); ?>
and that gets replaced by some HTML that shows the chocolate image.
I was thinking it could be done autonatically based on the category of the post but then I wasn't sure how to handle the case where a post is in multiple categories.
Has this been done in a plugin already and if so, which one? If it hasn't been done, can anyone point me in the right direction to making this work?

"This [study] is an important reminder that while transfusions are lifesaving in some settings, there are also settings where we know patients do better with a restrictive transfusion strategy," McMahon said.
According to Katz, the results must now be replicated in controlled clinical trials. "If it is true, it raises the question of, are there things we can do in the bag [of donated blood] that would make this not a problem? Can you put nitric oxide in the bag?"
Stamler's group addressed that challenge in a study conducted with dogs. They found that human red cells' vasodilatory activity could be restored at any point up to 40 days following collection by treatment with NO, thereby improving blood flow to the heart in blood recipients.
"The hope would be that this will also work in humans," Stamler said. "We already know that the blood we give people is not normal and that it cannot open vessels properly. Our hope is if we put the nitric oxide back in, we could cure this problem."
In the meantime, those patients in need of a blood transfusion would do well to stay informed, Katz said. "The bottom line on transfusion is to ask what is the functional benefit of transfusion in this patient at this time," he said. "We (docs) are often guessing, but good docs make good guesses."
Both Stamler and McMahon noted conflicts of interest in their reports, including grant support and consulting fees from, and equity holdings in, Nitrox/N30 Pharma, "a company that is developing strategies for treating disorders of oxygen delivery," according to Stamler's manuscript.

Happy Halloween!
The chattering classes, overrun with Red Sox fans, are waking up to a scary thought: the realization that now they have only the Celtics to cheer hem through an increasingly gloomy time for their favoritist president ever. For them, a special treat: the transcript of my long interview with the New York Times' Peter Baker, which includes many Bush-Obama comparisons (and even a Jay Carney-Scott McClelland side-by-side). There are a great many sharp turns in the interview, so if you missed it, read it all, especially if you want to understand what is happening to this current president right now.
Baker is one of the Manhattan-Beltway media elite's best-and-brightest and with good reason as his new book, Days of Fire, is wonderfully reportered and written, and so fair that Mary Matalin and James Carville could both agree to give it as a Christmas present.

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Oct. 25, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Amarantus BioSciences, Inc. (OTCQB: AMBS), a biotechnology company developing new disease-modifying treatments and diagnostics for Parkinson's disease and Traumatic Brain Injury centred on its proprietary anti-apoptosis therapeutic protein MANF, today announced that the Company has received positive behavioural efficacy data for MANF in a neurorestoration 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) rat model of Parkinson's disease. The data shows superiority of MANF over GDNF, a neurotrophic factor currently in a Phase 2 clinical trial as a disease-modifying treatment for Parkinson's disease, by demonstrating that when MANF is delivered directly to the primary brain region associated with Parkinson's called the substantia nigra, MANF significantly reduced behavioural deficits in the model, whereas GDNF did not.
In Parkinson's disease, the nigro-striatal network (substantia nigra – striatum) is compromised due to the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra, which results in dopaminergic nerve terminal retraction from the striatum towards the substantia nigra. This leaves the striatum with inadequate dopamine levels, which in turn causes motor function deficits and other symptoms. Currently approved drugs that relieve symptoms focus on replacing the dopamine lost in the striatum; however, the symptom relief is temporary and the drugs typically lose their ability to abate symptoms roughly 7-10 years after the initiation of drug therapy. There are no approved therapies that focus on re-innervating the striatum by protecting dopaminergic neuron cell bodies in the substantia nigra while restoring dopaminergic innervation in the striatum.
In rat studies conducted by an independent academic laboratory contracted by Amarantus, 6-OHDA was injected directly into the striatum on one side of each rat's brain, causing their dopaminergic terminals to retract from the striatum towards the substantia

Wild Guns (ワイルドガンズ?) is a fixed-view western shooting gallery game developed by Natsume for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1994 in Japan. The North American version was also set to be released in the third quarter of 1994, and North American magazines even reviewed the game at that time, but the release was unexpectedly delayed until the third quarter of 1995.[1] The PAL version was released in 1996 and published by Titus Software. It was released on the Virtual Console in North America on May 31, 2010 and in the PAL region on August 13, 2010 for the Wii and in North America on September 18, 2014 for the Wii U.
The game takes place in a Wild West Steampunk setting.
The objective is to seek revenge against a murderous gang that killed the family member of one of the playable characters. The female character, Annie, has searched down a bounty hunter by the name of Clint to help her get revenge and to rescue the few family members she has left.
The game employs a third-person, fixed viewpoint and is primarily about shooting, similar to Cabal.[2] The controls also share a similar element to the 1990 video arcade game Blood Bros.[3]
The player controls the movement of both the on-screen character and the targeting reticule with the directional pad. While shooting, the character stands still. Various maneuvers, such as jumping, double jumping and dodge-rolls are possible. Beyond the standard gun several other weapons are obtainable, such as a Gatling gun, shotgun, or a grenade launcher though these hold only limited ammunition. As is common in shooter games, the player has access to a number of screen-clearing bombs. A message declaring "Look out!" appears when gunfire is about to hit the player. Failing to dodge out of the way in time results in losing a life.
Most bullets shot at the player can be shot, getting rid of a threat and building up a gauge that, once filled, gives the player a powerful cannon weapon for a short time with unlimited ammo for the duration.
When a game is resumed because of using up a credit, the score reverts itself back to zero. Three difficulty levels are used for this game: easy, normal, and hard.
The five reviewers of Electronic Gaming Monthly gave it a unanimous score of 8 out of 10, citing the cooperative multiplayer mode and challenging levels as the game's strongest points.[4] GamePro praised the game for its intense action, fun cooperative multiplayer mode, colorful graphics, and ability to shoot almost any on-screen object. They remarked that the game is on the difficult side even on easy mode, but that players are rewarded for perseverance.[5]
The game received a score of 70% in Video Games & Computer Entertainment.[6]

When Did different species achieve space travel/ warp?

Re: When Did different species achieve space travel/ warp?
We may also consider that Zephram Cochrane of Alpha Centauri was considered to have "discovered the space warp", probably sometime in the 21st century but at least before his disappearance in the 2110s, according to TOS "Metamorphosis".
It might in theory be that no species in the universe known to our TOS heroes had discovered space warp prior to Cochrane, and that everybody we saw warping in ENT had acquired that capability after 2063. At least that was probably the intent of the writer of "Metamorphosis", and so far only a single piece of canonical evidence seems to go directly against this idea: the presence of a "warp engineer" aboard a Vulcan ship in 1957 in "Carbon Creek". Apart from that, all our alien references are to interstellar travel by unknown means, not to warp drive as such.
In practice, though, no recent writer of Trek has considered Cochrane to have been the inventor of warp drive in the general sense - but merely in the sense of introducing that drive to the human species on Earth. Supposedly, other species had their own Cochranes, or bought or stole warp from yet other species. It's just that the evidence isn't explicit, and a stubborn arguer could still support the claim that humans were the first (out of the usual players at least) to come up with a working warp drive, in 2063.

Various aspects of our environmentincluding political systems, economic systems, and even climate and geographycan affect our thinking and behavior, a field of study known as socioecological psychology. In a report in Perspectives on Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological Science, psychological scientists Shigehiro Oishi and Jesse Graham from the University of Virginia examine the impact of social and physical environments on human thought and behavior.
A society's economic system may have long-reaching effects on its citizens' behaviors, beyond how much money they can make. Research suggests that willingness to cooperate with others depends on the economic system in which individuals live in: In an economic game, participants from a whale-hunting society (in which cooperation is important for survival) were more likely to exhibit cooperative responses than were participants from a horticultural society (one in which cooperation is not critical).
However, the relationship between economic systems and behavior goes in the other direction as wellthe mind and behavior can influence economic systems. For example, nations high in general trust have more subsequent capital investment and economic growth that nations that are low in general trust.
Climate can also have an influence over the mind and behavior. Studies have shown that violent-crime rates are higher during warmer months compared to colder months. Research has also suggested that prosocial behaviors are affected by the weather: In one study, pedestrians were more willing to help a survey interviewer on sunny days (in both summer and winter) than they were on cloudy days.
In the history of psychological science, there have been several waves of socioecological research, each having a distinct focus. "However," write Oishi and Graham, "sustained attention to current and chronic macroenvironments has not been widely recognized in

JEWELS - Non-profit encourages positive mindset through transformation
A very energetic Richard Farnell stands in front of his classroom teaching at-risk students the new curriculum he helped establish for the JEWELS program. He has been volunteering for the Zion Daughters of Distinction Ministries since 2008 and established JEWELS for youth who have entered the juvenile justice system to help them re-enter society.
As a retired homicide detective, Richard has witnessed the upswing of young people involved in criminal activities. "I want to change their mindset," he says. "I want to positively impact kids who have been rejected – whose hope is all gone – to teach them that they can be successful."
It seems that the first JEWELS program, which stands for Juveniles Entering Wellness, Education, Leadership and Success, is off to good start.
One of the students said, "I was a very angry person, but it has helped me calm myself down.
Another said, "It has been a positive learning experience."
JEWELS is free and is managed by volunteers.
"We are all concerned for children who think that murder and drive-by shootings are normal," says Richard. "Being a gangster and a thug is now a hip-hop trend."
Richard goes on to explain that young people lack role models. "Their fathers are in prison. There are no George Jefferson or Bill Cosby role models that these kids can interact with to see what it is really like to be a successful businessman and family man."
JEWELS intends to change that. The JEWELS six-week curriculum has been developed to show juvenile offenders that there is a way of life that can put them on the road to success. The healthy, self-concept program includes lessons on positive thinking, criminal law, gang prevention, incarceration, substance abuse and various occupational skills.
The program is located in Fort Pierce, but Richard says, "If we could open up in Port St. Lucie, we would be filled to the max."
One day Richard and his wife, Teresa Farnell, hope to branch out and open a JEWELS Academy that will serve as a full-time school for at-risk youth making the light of JEWELS radiate even more.
In the meantime, if you'd like additional information, visit www.daughtersfaith.org and click on JEWELS.

Hey all,
I'm venturing into the southern UT region this weekend, and I'm planning to ride Gooseberry on Sat. I'm traveling with my gf who doesn't mtn bike, and I was wondering if anyone on the boards was planning to do a Gooseberry ride on Sat. I would love to go out with someone else who can show me around a bit.
I'm planning to be on trail by about 9:45ish. I'm in early season riding shape, but I enjoy riding tech and I think I'll survive.
I would love to meet some fellow UT MTBR peeeps. Please PM or post here if you're interested in meeting up! Thanks all!

Do the presidential debates influence how you vote?
Asked at Massachusetts Street on October 17, 2012
"No. Their actions over the years mean more to me than what they're going to say in a controlled setting. "
"Maybe. I'm waiting for them to come back with more speeches."
"I don't think they change for me. They just reinforce my thought."

--- Public Education is a strong player in new Economic Growth yet republicans starve the system of funding which starves our teachers of resources. Which starves the desired level of education = stealing from our children's future.
--- "Rebuilding America's Defences," openly advocates for total global military domination" (Very dangerous position which threatens OUR freedoms and the nations security) http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Project_for_the_New_American_Century
--- The repub party declared the day Obama was elected their primary function would be to make Obama a one term president. Consequently their millions of NO votes became the disastrous campaign against women,The USA and jobs for Americans. http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2012/jun/09/did-republicans-deliberately-crash-us-economy
--- Ask yourself is the market value of your home worth less than your mortgage? How much market value have home owners lost since 2007? Trillions of $$$$.
--- Republicans want to kill PBS and NPR - NO I want my tax dollars to support PBS and NPR
These republican economic policies are apparently entitlements that literally destroyed millions of jobs,economies,retirement plans. And made owning a home a risky investment - now that is remarkable.
--- This ENTITLEMENT - Bailing out The Reagan/Bush Savings and Loan Heist aka home loan scandal sent the economy out the window costing taxpayers many many $$ trillions (Cost taxpayers $1.4 trillion), Plus millions of jobs, loss of retirement plans and loss of medical insurance. http://rationalrevolution0.tripod.com/war/bush_family_and_the_s.htm[
--- This ENTITLEMENT Bailing out the Bush/Cheney Home Loan Wall Street Bank Fraud cost consumers $ trillions, millions of jobs, loss of retirement plans and loss of medical insurance.

"I wonder if Jake and Whitney can call "DIBS" on Lance's box at the soccer field?"
Lance who? Lance Druggie Boy? No news to me. I new the guy was an arrogant jerk from day one. So he named a Girl's Volleyball stadium after himself. I bet he's never been there. Too busy having various mid-life crises, leaving his wife that stood by him through the cancer and chasing skanky chicks like Sheryl Crow. Jake....You don't mean that short bald guy on that absurd Sunday night Pitch show do you? Oh, Whit Whit Whit! Don't worry Jake, Hollis Brown already told me you want to kick my butt. I shudder.......

All I know is Ethel Skakel is not a Kennedy, she just married one. Her nephew Michael isn't a Kennedy either. He just said he was so he could get away with murdering that cute girl Martha Moxley in the impoverished village of Greenwich, CT in 1975. His dad's name was Rushton. With a name like Rushton, how can you not be a wealthy alcoholic with poorly-raised kids. So is it Rushton, Ethel, or Bobby's fault. Boy, politics sure is confusing.

"Lance Armstrong had repeated carnal relations with an Olsen twin."
Oh, for God's sake, BoB! Please! I just vomited on my remote control! I'm so GD pissed at that trollop for murdering Heath. His finest hour was in "Brokeback Mountain". I damn near cried at that. Jake Unpronounceablename couldn't even ruin it. I'm 80% straight but I would have damn well married Heath after watching that. Speaking of murder, I'm kinda hoping Dr. Spew will kill the entire cast of "Rehab". No "celebs", but the same spoilt jerk-offs. Just more privileged repulsive losers.

Sheryl Crow is a mouth breather. As a child, she never learned to breath through her nose. Usually the result of inbreading. Therefore her upper lip constantly hangs over her teeth and she cannot properly close her mouth, making intimacies difficult. See Suzie Chafee and Christie Brinkley. Plus, I believe she is from Kennet, MO. Lots of meth is made there, a sure warning sign.

"Darn it Eddie, some of those girls volleyball players would kick sand in our eyes"
Look Artie, the hottest women's volleyball players are from S. America, like Ronaldo, and they totally love to dominate men. I dated this KU volleyball player from there years ago. She was taller than me, beautiful, and insisted on tying me up with her panties while she took advantage of me and called me "Andrea". I loved every minute of it.

Not a bad guess. But, I think it was manufactured in Colombia. Nurtured from the green leaves of the mountain to be cut, mixed with other "things," and compressed to dry.
Marrying a rock means to smoke it. When it gets to the point of no return it is then ingested rectally for full absorption.

Dead Trigger 2 explodes in the Play Store at midnight!
The time is now fight fans. Or should I say survival fans. Or better yet, zombie apocalypse destroy anything hungering for human flesh fans. Dead Trigger 2, one of the most highly anticipated games on Android ever, is going to be unleashed on the world tonight at midnight. What better time than the witching hour to see this virus spread and infect the entire world. Where will you be when the apocalypse starts?
I'll be tucked up in bed, supplies at the ready, door barricaded against any intrusion and full of excuses as to why I'll look like a dead-eyed psycho tomorrow at work. If I don't catch a little sickness and not come in – who knows how fast these things can spread? Better to isolate myself. In case you've absolutely missed everything about this game, here's the skinny: an unknown virus turns humankind into raging, ravenous flesh eating undead and only a few survive. They must band together, pool their skills and resources and work together to stay alive and find others like them. Oh, and massacre as many zombies as is humanly possible with an impressive new arsenal.
The game is going to be real-time too, so the sooner you get it on your Android or iOS device and start playing the more of the action you'll see and take part in. The longer you wait the more you'll be missing out on. I've put the opening cut scene for you above in case you missed it before – it's basically like playing a mission-based 28 Days Later game – and there's a gameplay video already out from one lucky tester over at AppSpy if you wanted to get a look at what you'll be getting yourself in for.
The second installment is more mission-based than the first and an automatic trigger action has been added so you will open fire as soon as you place the cursor/cross-hairs over an encroaching corpse. So you can concentrate entirely on staying alive and claiming head shots. The graphics look just as impressive as the first Dead Trigger and, so the story goes, you'll be getting a round-the-world ticket to different countries as the virus spreads, although this is not yet confirmed. It's a freemium game too, so if you want to outfit yourself with the most ridiculous weapons right from the get-go to ensure your survival and maximum carnage, you better get your Google Wallet ready. The game itself is free to download and play though.
Will you be downloading Dead Trigger 2 tonight? Let us know your thoughts when you get it!

I contacted Madfinger games about, if this game would have online multiplayer player like Shadowgun Deadzone. They did reply back and said in the coming months in a big update they will include online multiplayer like Shadowgun Deadzone. But currently they only have Global warfare missions.

SAN DIEGO, July 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Gen-Probe Incorporated (Nasdaq: GPRO) today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2009, including non-GAAP earnings per share (EPS) of $0.45 and record sexually transmitted disease (STD), clinical diagnostics and total product sales.
"Gen-Probe posted solid earnings in the second quarter of 2009 as a good performance from our core STD franchise, the inclusion of initial revenues from our Tepnel acquisition, and portfolio gains outweighed lower-than-expected blood screening sales," said Carl Hull, the Company's president and chief executive officer. "In addition, the key R&D projects that we expect to boost future growth - including our PANTHER instrument and new tests for human papillomavirus (HPV), prostate cancer and trichomonas - remain on track."
In the second quarter of 2009, product sales were $116.8 million, compared to $113.7 million in the prior year period, an increase of 3%. Compared to the second quarter of 2008, the stronger U.S. dollar reduced product sales growth by an estimated 4%(2). Total revenues for the second quarter of 2009 were $120.5 million, compared to $119.8 million in the prior year period, an increase of 1%.
Net income was $23.2 million ($0.45 per share) on a non-GAAP basis in the second quarter of 2009, compared to $24.8 million ($0.45 per share) in the prior year period, a decrease of 6%. Including $4.4 million ($0.07 per share) of expenses related to the Company's acquisition of Tepnel, which closed on April 8, 2009, net income in the second quarter of 2009 was $19.8 million ($0.38 per share) on a GAAP basis.
For the first six months of 2009, product sales were $229.3 million, compared to $215.2 million in the prior year period, an increase of 7%.

Thank you, Sen. Claire McCaskill.
Being a political junkie, I enjoy the months leading up to national elections. I read the papers more closely, listen to the P.O.T.U.S. on Sirius/XM and try to investigate the issues and the candidates before casting my vote.
However, I admit that my research on the U.S. Senate race in Missouri has been modest at best. Thankfully, Sen. McCaskill has helped me. ...

PhD in Creative Writing
Director of Postgraduate Studies: Professor Richard Gwyn
Guidance for PhD Creative Writing applicants
The Colour of a Dog Running Away by Dr Richard Gwyn
Cardiff was one of the first universities in the UK to offer a PhD in Creative Writing, and over two decades we have prepared graduates for careers as writers and in the publishing industry. In recent years our graduates have acquired publishing contracts with major publishers and have taken up teaching posts in British universities and overseas.
The PhD programme involves the preparation of an original piece of creative work – a novel, collection of poems or short stories, or play/film script - and a critical commentary. Candidates for the PhD Creative Writing will submit one of the following:-:
i. Prose (novel, short story, work of creative non-fiction or play/film script) - the creative portion and critical commentary will not normally exceed 100,000 words with the critical commentary comprising not less than 20,000 words;
ii. Poetry, a collection of poetry, prose poetry or micro-fiction amounting to around 60 pages, with an accompanying critical commentary of not less than 20,000 words;
iii. An integrated Creative/Critical submission of no more than 100,000 words.
Click here to see a list of current and recent PhD topics in the School.
As from their second year, students have the opportunity for teaching on the undergraduate English Literature degree and receive mentoring sessions from a full-time member of staff. Full-time PhD students are allocated study space, which provides computing facilities, networked information and access to email and the internet.
PhD students are encouraged to participate in the Open Mic session organised for the MA in Creative Writing (see below), and to attend workshops and readings given by visiting writers.
Admissions Information
Applications are welcome from graduates with at least a 2.1 in English Literature (and/or a relevant discipline) and an MA in Creative Writing, English Literature or a relevant discipline.
Our own MA in Creative Writing provides an ideal basis for students wishing to undertake a PhD. Alternatively, in certain cases PhD students attend the first two terms of the MA course, and submit the assessed essays, before proceeding to full-time work on the thesis. Essays take account of the material taught in the course, but may also constitute draft sections of the doctoral project.
The School welcomes applications from students from outside the United Kingdom. More information is provided on our International Students page.
Funding opportunities will be listed on:

Squirrel & Rabbit deterents ?
Previous Forum topic
Next Forum topic
Ok, I'm living on borrowed time seeing as over the past month i've managed to survive 3 squirrel attempts to kill me and a rabbit along with a blackbird in the rear wheel.
i've looked all over the place for something like a battery powered mini ultrasonic device or those deer whistles that go on the front of cars etc. Does anyone know of anything thats successful at giving these poor creatures a heads up a cyclist is coming.
presently I've taken to shouting 'ALAN' ( you've gotta watch the Youtube video of a squirrel shouting Alan) every 100 metres or so which is a little tiring on my ride into work.
I live rurally and it's 6am when i head off on my 14 mile trip, so plenty of wildlife up and about.
Thanks for reading
I thought I was the only one - I've regretably gone over a rabbit, had a squirrel bolt between my wheels (somehow unscathed) and had a blackbird decapitate itself in my rear wheel. I feel better for getting that off my chest! If I see something coming up, I tend to give a bit of a clap if I can and that usually sends them into the verge, but it's obviously unwise if you're descending (as I was in the rabbit and blackbird incidents).

Could you use some sort of spoke clacker, preferably one that can be disabled easily for the non-countryside part of your journey?

A spoke clacker would be ideal, but all but 1 mile of my journey is along country roads with hedges a plenty all the way. The Deer Whistles I read about work at 30kmh (18mph) so I'll have to pedal harder or keep shouting "ALAN".
TBH I would have thought that some clever Trevor had designed a small device to emit a high frequency noise to alert said wildlife. I spent a good lunchtime looking at animals hearing frequencies and then trying to find devices that emit that frequency......sad sad sad. Anyway, all to no avail.
The device doesn't have to be on the bike, I could put it in my cycle top. Perhaps something that made a noise every 20 seconds or so would be fine.
Thanks though for the ideas...I'm not giving up yet

My main wildlife problem is with pheasants, they are really stupid birds who run around in circles instead of making for the fields.
No wonder the Hoorays use them for 'sport', a species thicker than they are.

Absolutely Crosshouses ! Pheasants are only there to make sheep look bright
We have that pleasure to look forward too in a few weeks time in this area.

I'd be careful with the Alan thing, people'll think you're a nut job. Quite amusing though.
I don't think there's anything you can do about it. Quite an impressive haul you've got there.
I do quite a lot of rural riding and have so far only managed to clip a baby Rabbit. Nature nearly got revenge though as in deepest darkest Suffolk as a Red Deer jumped into the road about 5 yards ahead of me and cleared the opposing hedge. It was his mate who nearly got me though, bloody thing jumped clean over my front wheel. Nearly you knowed myself..
You could get yourself a set of Chris King hubs, those things make a right racket..

What about bees and wasps? One got stuck in my helmet and then promptly stung me because it wasn't happy with it's situation. Queue an emergency stop and rapid removal of helmet. May have to use a bandana under the helmet as a precaution!

Can we add pigeons to the list. I was cycling to work the other morning, doing 25 -30 mph downhill when one decided to take off in front of me almost wiping me out.

A spoke clacker would be ideal, but all but 1 mile of my journey is along country roads with hedges a plenty all the way. The Deer Whistles I read about work at 30kmh (18mph) so I'll have to pedal harder or keep shouting "ALAN".
TBH I would have thought that some clever Trevor had designed a small device to emit a high frequency noise to alert said wildlife. I spent a good lunchtime looking at animals hearing frequencies and then trying to find devices that emit that frequency......sad sad sad. Anyway, all to no avail.
Thanks though for the ideas...I'm not giving up yet
How about a bell? Trrrring it every few metres. its on the handlebars so no need to move your hands & you won't have to keep shouting.

The odd rabbit. bug it in the pot!
Last night was about normal. Near misses on about a dozen bunnies and stacks of sheep lurking in the gutter. " different boar, sodding great big ones who decided to play chicken they could have stood still and a heap of the stripy little buggers as well who get everywhere, can take you off and worse have a evil big mum in the buses nearby. I don't count squirrels as they move too fast. Weds saw a Fallow buck miss me by a few yards.
Nothing beats the near miss on deer a few years ago., Pissed and going like the clappers down hill in the dark. Minimal lighting and to much beer jus showed e a shadow moving very fast across my front, left to right. My befuddle state said owl but why could I hear its feet on the road. The next morning fund deer hair my right elbow.

Squirrels can hear high-frequency noises very well. When I see a squirrel near the road as I approach, I hiss loudly at it ("Psst!"). I find this activates their warning systems better than any other verbal noise I can make.
Squirrels are squishable and I have killed a couple of them by just riding straight over them. The squirrels may disagree, but I think it's preferable to ride over the poor little beasts rather than make a sudden evasive move and possibly crash the bike.

Squirrels if grey KILL THEM they're yankies and not native. No but seriously have you tried a Dog dazer? put it on your handlebars and press when needed.

Superb ! Thats the kinda thing I was looking for Funnily enough, one of the local farmers has just bought forth a litter of puppies which also love to go into the road and welcome oncoming cars and cyclists (might not have a litter for long in that case...)
Thankfully, we don't have deer in this area, biggest problem we have is sheep in the road, but at least you can see them and they naturally go towards the hedges when trying to flee from anyone.

Larry Crowne Photo Gallery
Until he was downsized, affable, amiable Larry Crowne (Tom Hanks) was a superstar team leader at the big-box company where he's worked since his time in the Navy. Underwater on his mortgage and unclear on what to do with his suddenly free days, Larry heads to his local college to start over. In his public speaking class, Larry develops an unexpected crush on his teacher Mercedes (Roberts), who has lost as much passion for teaching as she has for her husband. Check out photos…

The rich culture and interesting lifestyles of Iowa's most unique communities await participants in the Road Scholar program from Iowa State University Extension and Outreach. The 2012 travel schedule includes tours of Iowa's uncommon utopian communities, historic towns along the Upper Mississippi River and a four-state tour along the Missouri River.
When caregivers take better care of themselves, they can provide better care to their older adult loved ones. That's the philosophy behind Powerful Tools for Caregivers, a series of classes provided by Iowa State University Extension and Outreach. Classes for caregivers are scheduled in local communities throughout the year. The next training session for class leaders is April 26-27 in Urbandale.
Adults need to adapt healthier lifestyles and be role models for kids if Iowa is going to be the healthiest state in the nation, says Ruth Litchfield, an Iowa State University associate professor and state nutrition extension specialist.
When it comes to temperament, some kids are as dependable as pickup trucks, while others are as touchy as high-end sports cars. This month's Science of Parenting podcast from Iowa State University Extension and Outreach examines the "engine" that drives a child and how parents can manage spirited children.
"When we love the place where we live, we take better care of it," said Kristi Cooper, a family life specialist with Iowa State University Extension and Outreach. She will discuss how to develop a sense of place and build communities that connect people with nature during the Virtual Eco Family Conference on Feb. 2.
Parents can exert a measure of control over their child's mobile phone use by limiting use, checking its contents and using it to monitor the whereabouts of their offspring. However, with a few exceptions, these activities by parents do not seem to impact patterns of cell phone use by teens, according to Iowa State University Extension and Outreach family life specialists.
At some point in many women's lives, they will have to make major financial decisions. Money Talk, an online class offered through Iowa State University Extension and Outreach, gives women the knowledge to make those decisions and improve their lives. The registration deadline is Feb. 1 and the class begins Feb. 6.
From podcasts to text messages and Skype, many parents are adding technology to their parenting toolkit. This month's Science of Parenting podcast from Iowa State University Extension and Outreach takes a closer look at how parents can use information and communications technology for parenting.
Iowa families throughout the state will be getting together — virtually — once a month from January through June for an Eco Family Conference from Iowa State University Extension and Outreach. It's an opportunity for families to improve the environment, reduce their carbon footprint and create community close to home.
Any parent, new or seasoned, may have questions regarding his or her children. Iowa State University Extension and Outreach offers a free monthly newsletter, Just in Time Parenting, with helpful information on parenting young ones.

Limiting debt for students tracking into primary care is key Koeppen says that when it is fully funded, Quinnipiac's Primary Care Fellowship, established by its Board of Trustees, will waive tuition for every student who commits to practicing primary care at least four years after they complete their residency training.
According to Koeppen, resident physicians who start out on a path to a primary care career may be diverted during the course of their residency training. He says an effort must be made to embed residency programs into settings where high quality primary care is being provided. As a good first step, he cites the Affordable Care Act's three year grant for the "Teaching Health Center" program, which allows Community Health Centers to establish residency programs to train physicians who would then stay on to practice primary care in that setting.
"We need to expand the number of federally funded residency positions in the country, and weight those toward primary care disciplines," Koeppen said. "This is critical if we are to address the looming primary care physician shortage. We also need to change the perception that primary care medicine is boring and that only specialists see interesting cases. The real truth is those interesting patients often see the specialist by a referral from the primary care physician.
"If we establish primary care teams that consist of physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, occupational and physical therapists, nutritionists, behavior health specialists, and states allow these individuals to practice at the top of their training, rather than at the

In recent years, federal agencies funding biomedical research have recognized the importance of multidisciplinary team-based strategies for solving important disease problems. Funding mechanisms intended to support this kind of research include the Program Project Grants (P01) sponsored by a number of the National Institutes of Health and the Specialized Programs of Research Excellence (SPORE) supported by the National Cancer Institute, one of the NIH institutes.
In launching the Keystone Programs, Fox Chase Cancer Center is making a remarkable institutional commitment to promoting team-based research to accelerate discovery in cancer medicine, says Seiden. The scope of our investment in this program is unusual and may well be unique among academic research centers.
In confronting cancer, Fox Chase Cancer Center has two advantages over most other leading medical centers, according to Seiden, both of which will contribute to the success of the Keystone Programs. The first is its tight focus on only one major health problem. Unlike most medical centers, Fox Chase is dedicated solely to confronting the challenge of

Taxes and a home equity loan
Chris Farrell
Mar 28, 2012 Hello. I'm 50 and single. I have a 15-year mortgage at 3.5 percent. My income is more than $80,000. I have a Roth and I am maximizing my company's 403(b) account. I have no credit card debt -- no debt in general except the mortgage, so I don't have a lot of write-offs. Does it make sense to get an equity loan and finish my basement so I can get a bigger write-off on taxes while investing in my home, or should I continue to just sock money away because it is better to not have debt? Thanks. Lisa, Salt Lake City, UT
