Inside the Commission on Missing and Exploited Children
Hundreds of thousands of children are reported missing every year in the United States.
Many children are taken by family members, though some are stranger abductions.
Sometimes they're missing for years and in some cases the children are never found.
The Commission on Missing and Exploited Children has been serving our community for more than two decades.
Their purpose is to help keep children safe, especially in a time when we've seen an increase in Amber Alerts.
Sgt. Len Edwards talked with us about how the agency operates.

We see children daily for a host of reasons. These children are suspected of using illicit substances, have behavioral problems, anger issues, gang affiliation and others problems.
However, to me, there is nothing that bothers me more than children who feel (for whatever reason) that they don't belong. Sometimes the result is that they have disconnected from their faith, family and education. Sometimes kids, usually in their teens become defiant and want to take control of their own decision making. We often say that these teens want the independence of an adult but the responsibility of a child.
"Tommy" sat in my office and told me that he was tired of being told what to do. He said he had no freedom, and that his mother was trying to tell him who he could be friends with. He was being told where he could go, when he had to be home and he hated the authority exerted by school.
He (barely 16 years old) thought that his single mom just used him as a babysitter for his younger siblings while his she worked. He was using tobacco, alcohol, and marijuana, and oftentimes left his younger siblings at alone while his mother was at work. Mom was infuriated! "If he can't do what I tell him to do then he can just- get out! If he is not going to help me then what use is he to me or the family?"
Candy was a defiant, angry little girl of 14 that was brought our office because she was frequently running away from home. Candy was about 4'11 and weighed about 85 pounds. She literally thought, and behaved like, she was an adult. Her mom and dad divorced, and each had engaged in new relationships, and each had brought additional children into the homes from previous relationships.
Candy was wearing a spaghetti strapped mid-drift black shirt that said, "Budding Bitch" on it. Candy was wearing heavy make-up, had long fingernails and obviously was trying to look twenty years old. The child's mother stated to me that she would not go to school, and that if she did she usually left at lunch time to "hook-up" with her older friends who had cars. The mom asked me if I knew of a "boot camp" where she could send her to teach her a lesson… or even better a military school.
Parenting 101 She did not just start dressing like this today. Who is the parent, who is the child? Who buys her clothes? Why does she want to appear to be so much older than what she is? Could it be that she wants out and realizes that an adult relationship is the train out of town?
We have children brought in office daily by parents for a host of reasons. Their children are thought to be using illicit substances, behavioral problems, anger issues, gang affiliation and others. To me, there is nothing that bothers me more than children who feel (for whatever reason) that they don't belong.

Tommy just turned 16 years old, and thought that his single mom just used him as a babysitter for his younger siblings while his mother worked.

Mom was infuriated, "if he can't do what I tell him to do then he can just- get out! If he is not going to help me, then what use is he to me or the family?"
A throwaway child is a child who no longer recognizes or accepts parental control and through frustration, that parent simply tells the child to leave home with the "clothes on his/her back. Oftentimes, these children do not have the street-survival skills to make it on their own and become ripe for exploitation by older and more sophisticated street people.
Parenting 101 He is not your spouse nor the father of your other children. He needs to be in school, involved with positive and constructive activities, and you need to create some quality time with him alone, and let him know how much he is loved.
From The Frontline
Parents recently came into the office with their 17 year old son who has become increasingly more aggressive toward his family, and had been suspected of using drugs. The young man's new friends consisted of drop-outs, thugs and dopers. The family could not understand what was going on and why their once honor roll student and school athelete was going in this direction.We offered free drug screening service and once the results were in (they were negative), the family returned in for an interview.
The mother and father came to the office with the child and I spoke child alone. I asked what was happening to rock his world. He stated that his mom and dad were fighting terribly about money, as his father had been laid off. The son thought that his parents were going to get divorced, and that he did not think it was fair for all of the anger to spill over to the rest of the family, and that he was escaping the stress by leaving.
I then brought the parents in alone and spoke to them together regarding their son's concerns about a pending divorce. They were shocked! Together, the parents stated that a divorce was not even a consideration – it had not even been discussed. They agreed that things had become very stressful at home but thought that their discussion of the problems in front of the kids probably was not appropriate.
Next I brought all of them together and had the parents reassure the child that their home was intact – that they loved him, and eachother, but was just not used to having money problems. Mom cried, dad cried, kid cried (I almost did too!) Family hug and kid promised to straighten out now that he was not threatened by the divorce issue.
One month later, Mom comes back to the office with her son, drops off a generous donation and says, "you know? It's all about communication, and we needed COMEC to come in and help us better communicate with eachother and know that our strength as a family was the most important thing of all."
Len – it would be great for you to add some kind of observation here. Maybe something like: "Children are watching their parents, often when the parents are unaware. Kids often make conclusions, while not valid, are very real to them. Remember to talk to your kids. Ask them questions – be involved in their life. Let them know what you're thinking too.
It's all about the kids
At the Commission on Missing and Exploited Children (COMEC) it is all about children and the issues that affect them. Today's world is filled with challenges for families.
Some familiar such as truancy and others like Internet safety that are new territory for everyone. For over 23 years COMEC has identified and instituted programs that help children and those who are charged with their care. Promoting the safety and protection of all children and connecting families is what our organization is all about.
Children who run away, children who are taken, children who are kicked out of their homes, or simply a child or parent who need help in facing the many obstacles that challenge them. We are here to support them and you.
Should you need guidance, direction, encouragement or technical assistance in bringing your child home. COMEC is the Mid-South's resource for keeping our children safe.
COMEC is the ONLY non-profit missing children's organization in Tennessee (501c3 status). We administer the region's AMBER Alert. We are a small group with the huge task of implementing and administering programs designed to protect the children of the Mid-South from predators of all kinds, those they might encounter in public and on the internet. We search for missing children. We provide child identification cards, fingerprinting kits, in-home drug testing kits, counseling and Internet safety seminars.

So, news had come out that Free Agent Right Tackle Sebastian Vollmer had signed with the New England Patriots. Which was brilliant. However, now it would appear that nothing has been agreed to, according to the Boston Globe: Though it is likely to happen eventually, a league source said Sunday that there was no deal done yet between the Patriots and free agent offensive tackle Sebastian Vollmer. Still, this news is promising. Getting Vollmer back could be key to the Patriots success in the upcoming season. When healthy, he is one of the most dominant Tackles in the NFL, and that's a commodity you can't let leave, even if he has struggled with injuries. The Globe believes his knee surgery in February is something that has stopped Vollmer signing earlier. Consistent injuries has definitely been Vollmer's issue, and though he has played through injuries, the decrease in his performance has been noticeable. Combine that with Vollmer's willingness to remain a Patriot, and the main is...

The Air Zoo in Kalamazoo, Michigan opened a new 18-hole disc golf course this past weekend. A contest to name the course elicited 180 entries. "Field of Flight" was submitted by Brian Mosher and Chris Chester separately. "We received a number of great suggestions from the public," said Bob Ellis, Air Zoo president and CEO. "We selected 'Field of Flight' because it symbolizes the spirit of the Air Zoo and aviation."

So Virginia—the mother of American independence—elected a Governor who hates gays and loves the Confederacy. Some might say par for the course. But, wait, it gets better…
He's now appointed Fred Malek to an important government position. Mr. Malek, if you'll recall (and you probably don't, but will from now on) was Richard Nixon's ghetto sheriff, identifying then demoting the Jews who somehow rose to prominent positions during the Nixon administration.
I know filling out the Census is supposed to be the right thing to do—but if you live in Virginia and can quote every episode of Seinfeld, make sure you don't wind up on Malek's list!

Hi there,
Love this plug-in. Was trying to right-align certain numerical data in one of the columns. I was able to do it by playing around in the plugin options (Tobias has explained how to before) but I somehow messed something up. Now my tables all look messed up.
For example:
They no longer have the gray borders and are not sortable. I know I messed something up in the options section but don't know what. Any help?

LAFAYETTE, La. -- Even though Arkansas State is a heavy
underdog in this week's New Orleans Bowl, the Indians are confident
about one thing.
If Eric Neihouse lines up for another game-winning kick,
Arkansas State should be in pretty good shape.
"If it's going to come down to a field goal at the end, we know
it's going to be good," quarterback Nick Noce said.
Arkansas State (6-5) will face Southern Mississippi (6-5) in
Tuesday night's New Orleans Bowl, and Neihouse is a major reason
why. The fifth-year senior scored 69 points this season and was a
first-team all-Sun Belt selection -- and his two game-winning kicks
in October helped keep the Indians' bowl dreams alive.
Neihouse is 12-of-20 on field goals this season, hardly a
spectacular success rate. But he's been at his best with the game
on the line.
"He learned that he can go out when the pressure's on and
perform," coach Steve Roberts said Sunday. "There wasn't a better
kicker in our conference at preparing and going out and doing what
he needed to do with that type of pressure."
On Oct. 1, Neihouse made a career-best 50-yard field goal with
1:22 remaining, giving Arkansas State a three-point lead at
Louisiana-Monroe. Arkansas State eventually lost 31-27, but
Neihouse's kick set the tone for a remarkable month.
Arkansas State's next game was against Louisiana-Lafayette, and
Neihouse made a 35-yard field goal as time expired for a 39-36 win.
The following week, the Indians beat Florida Atlantic 3-0 in the
first NCAA game to go to overtime scoreless. Neihouse's won that
one with a 21-yard kick.
"Having the confidence, not only in yourself, but in your
teammates -- and your teammates having confidence in you -- that
helps out a lot," Neihouse said.
Confidence was a problem for Neihouse earlier in his career.
After redshirting in 2001, he went only 13-of-29 on field goals the
next two seasons.
Hoping to shake his early struggles, Neihouse found help from
Steve Cox, a former NFL punter and kicker who lives in Arkansas.
The two met through an allergy doctor Neihouse went to see, and Cox
began helping the young kicker.
"He got ahold of me and we started visiting," Neihouse said.
"He just noticed I had the potential, I just really didn't have it
between the ears."
The last two years, Neihouse has been a different kicker. He
went 11-of-16 on field goals in 2004, and this year, he's helped
Arkansas State overcome an inconsistent offense.
At one point this season, the Indians scored 29 points over four
games. But they won two of them -- the overtime victory over Florida
Atlantic and a 9-3 win over Troy. Neihouse kicked three field goals
-- including a 49-yarder -- against Troy.
"Two games we won, and the offense didn't score a touchdown.
That's very unheard of," said Neihouse, who has also averaged 37.6
yards per punt this season.
Neihouse's success hasn't affected Arkansas State's game plans.
Roberts says his play calling would be the same even if he didn't
have such a dependable kicker.
But with Neihouse, the Indians have an added luxury -- and this
week, they'll need every advantage they can find. The Sun Belt
Conference has won only once in the first four New Orleans Bowls,
and this year, Arkansas State opened as a 17½-point underdog
against Southern Mississippi.
Neihouse hopes the Indians can pull the upset without any
last-second heroics -- but as usual, he's prepared to provide them.
"I hope we go out and dominate -- where we just blow them
away," Neihouse said. "But if it does come down to it, I'll be

Skeptics' Journal Publishes Plagiarist's Paper [1]
Richard Littlemore [2] | March 24, 2008
By Richard Littlemore [2] • Monday, March 24, 2008 - 15:53
Despite dismissing the work as "a bit patchy and nothing new [3]," Sonja Boehmer-Christiansen [4], editor of the skeptic's journal [5] Energy and Environment journal, has published the work of the plagiarist [6]Dr. Klaus-Martin Schulte.
Dr. Schulte's "research [7]" was first published [8] last year on an industry-funded website called the Science and Public Policy Institute [9]. Actually, it was excerpted in a long essay by the disingenuous [10] Viscount Christopher Monckton (inset), who pronounced Schulte's paper serious, peer-reviewed science even while failing to admit his own part in its creation.
Following up on criticisms of Schulte's methodology and accusations that he had plagiarized earlier work by the oft-humiliated [11] anthropologist Benny Peiser, the DeSmogBlog contacted Ms. Boehmer-Christiansen in September and asked how she could justify publishing Schulte's article.
In her response, dated Sept. 6, 2006, Boehmer-Christiansen said:
For your information, I have informed Dr.Schulte that I am happy to publish his own research findings on the effect on patients of climate alamism/'Angst'.His survey of papers critical of the consensus was a bit patchy and nothing new, as you point out. it was not what was of interest to me; nothing has been published.SincerelySonja B-C

(From Our Regular Correspondent)Feb. 13, 1937.
Regulations for the Health and Safety of Factory Workers
The present law regulating the conditions of work in factories is based mainly on the factory and workshops act of 1901, which has been amended from time to time but has never been subject to a general overhauling. Since 1901 there have been great advances in knowledge and practice with regard to health and safety in industry. The government is therefore about to introduce a new bill, which is not only consolidating but revising and is said to give greatly improved provisions. The requirements as to the cleanliness of factories are made more precise by including specific provisions with regard to accumulations of dirt and the cleaning of floors. The amount of space required per person is increased from 250 to 400 cubic feet, subject to a clause allowing the present arrangements to

Hilary Duff Posts Adorable Childhood Throwback Pic in a Soccer Uniform (PHOTOS)
We all remember what Hilary Duff looked like as a kid because Lizzie McGuire was obviously our TV BFF. But it's always adorable when a celeb gets into throwback mode and posts an old pic — especially when it involves some dated fashion moments!
The 26-year-old actress took to Twitter to show off a childhood photo where she's wearing a baggy soccer jersey, red high-waisted soccer shorts, a slicked-back ponytail, and — our personal favorite part — a necklace made out of soda can tabs. So '90s chic.

This is a strange request, but I need help setting up a site that can do the following with a variation of plugins, etc.
My idea: I want to build a site that allows visitors two options: buy and sell. They can then click buy, fill out a quick form, and it produces results of all the sellers. Secondly, I want an option for Sell that users can fill out a form and sell something and it is entered into the database.
Now my original idea is to use Contact Form 7 to allow users to sell something, then use the CFDB plugin so it is stored into a database. And then finally for the Buy page, users fill out a form of the filters of what they want to buy, it manipulates the shortcode of the CFDB plugin, and displays a filtered result.
Everything above I know will work for what I want, but where it gets tricky is having that same user being able to delete their post. I know I can send them an email for verification, but maybe include a unique link to delete/edit their post.
I understand that there are "classifieds" themes and plugins that do this, but the items being sold/bought are Tickets for a specific venue. So I only need simple parameter such as Name, email, Asking Price, etc.
I want to make the website smooth and simple. Simply, put two large buttons on the site labeled Buy and Sell. Both point to a form, and then the Buy displays the filtered results (in a smooth, eye-candy display).
If anyone has any ideas, that would be greatly appreciated. I know some PHP as well as html and css. But creating this from scratch would be time-consuming and something as simple as this could hopefully be done easily using various plugins and a CMS.

Anyone on a gluten free diet?
My doctor today told me he wants me to try a gluten free diet, after 10 years of chronic pain, I got a diagnosis of Fibromyalgia today. Was kind of expecting it, but still wasn't news I wanted to hear. He said some people with fibro say a gluten free diet helps, and I'm willing to try just about anything. I'm totally clueless, though, and am hoping to get some advice from people that have been there, done that. Thanks, all!:heart:
I'm not strictly GF, but I do avoid it 99% of the time. My arthritis is much better when I do. Because I eat low carb anyway it wasn't a big deal for me. I'll find some links and post them for you.
Read labels carefully, look for the allergen warnings at the end.
My GS is on a GFCF diet. It helps with his Asperger's. I sure hope it helps you feel better and hurt less.
I was surprised to learn that barley and rye were no no's on GF.
This is one of the diets that I'm not on. I wish I had some good info for you about it. The only offering I have is my wish that the diet help you feel better. :hug:
I'm not on a GF diet, but my mother is a dianosed coeliac (or celiac to give the US spelling) and has to follow a GF diet.
I totally suport GG's statement to read labels carefully. It's not always the obvious foods that cause problems, but the unobvious ones.
Here's the link to the (American) Celiac Disease Foundation's website: http://celiac.org/. Their section on Living Guten Free has lots of helpful advice.
Get all the family onside.
Avoiding packet mixes and ready meals, but cooking from scratch is the simplest way to control what's in your food.
Not all brands are created equal. For example, one brand of ketchup will use wheat flour as a thickener, but another one wont.
As you are running a household and looking after a family, have and prepare foods that work for all of you (where possible). E.g. instead of making a sauce or gravy thickened with regular flour for your family and a GF duplicate thickened with corn starch or arrowroot for yourself, make one GF quanity for all of you.
If you use a toaster you will either need to invest in a new, seperate, toaster for you, or use toaster bags for your GF bread. Oh, and seperate butter or spread from the rest of the family to prevent cross-contamination. For jams/jellies, peanut butter etc, you can have seperate serving spoons (with the strict rule they are washed before re-entering the jar if one even thinks they have touched the non-GF food) or you could use the main jar and (re-)portion out to a second container for the rest of the family. Remember they can have non-GF contaminated food, but you can't take back GF contaminated food.
I don't know about GF bread in the US, but in the UK it had a very short (fresh) shelf life, so the freezer will proberbly be your best friend. In fact, you may find it easier to organise your freezer baskets or drawers into 'Mine', 'Ours' and 'Yours' for food.
It sounds alarmest, but these things very quickly become 'normal' for all of you.
I hope that is a good starting point and the best of luck.
Oh, I just remembered!
You'll need to get either GF stuffing for the turkey for Thanksgiving, or cook the regular stuffing in a seperate dish to the bird and serve it (the stuffing) to everyone else.
I'm gluten free, with a diagnosis of celiac disease. How can I help?
Here's a few links to check out.
Lots of recipes and most are gluten free. These women had autoimmune diseases. Read their about pages and info. I can't wait to try some of their recipes for holiday food!
Books I've read or am reading that might be of interest to many of you.

Grain Brain by Dr. David Perlmutter
One thing that surprised me when I started this was how pervasive gluten is in the food supply! Reading labels is essential and learn the "buzz words" for hidden gluten because it's not always obvious on the label.

Caramel color can contain gluten. Natural or naturally derived flavoring can contain gluten. Just because a label doesn't say "contains wheat" doesn't mean it's gluten-free.
Hey All - DH started following a diet based on the Joel Fuhrman's book 'Eat to Live'. Although not strictly gluten free, the focus is on fresh foods, "Salad is the Main Meal" is a motto. Lots of fruit and vegetables. I found this website with some of his recipes:

Fibromyalgia is inflammation based. When inflammation is triggered off and stays on it becomes chronic, beginning a cycle of disease. This website, nutritiondata.com, includes ratings for the inflammation factor of foods. You can track the food that you eat, including foods with non-inflammatory ratings; at the end of the day target a plus factor, ending up with a non-inflammatory rating by days end.

The Jets Are Boosting Ticket Prices
The Jets will raise ticket prices for the 2011 season by an average of 2.3% but will implement new payment policies to accommodate their fans in light of the league's labor uncertainty, Matt Higgins, the franchise's executive vice president of business operations, said Tuesday. Whereas season ticket holders usually had to pay for their seats in full by April 1, the Jets instead will require a 50% payment by the same date; they are also offering payment plans that will run through August. "You try to strike a balance, try to be reasonable and hold the line as much as possible," Mr. Higgins said. "We think we've done that."

Yankees Set Rotation For First Spring Games
The Yankees have announced their starting rotation for the first week of Grapefruit League games, and Bartolo Colon will start the first game of the spring on Saturday against the Philadelphia Phillies.
He will be followed in the rotation by Ivan Nova, then CC Sabathia, A.J. Burnett, Phil Hughes and Freddy Garcia.
Manager Joe Girardi said he picked Colon to start the first game because he pitched more in winter ball than most other players, and that he is stronger at this point in the spring than many of the other hurlers competing for spots in the rotation.
Through a translator, Colon said he was "very excited to pitch, and [I'm] ready to pitch."

I have created a Menu in the design section. In the beginning I didn't have any problems.
Now I can add/move/edit Menu items as usual, but after saving, items (at the end of the menu) disappear, aren't child items any more or change type (from page to user defined).
I think i updated wordpress since creating the menu, so this might be the reason?
Thanks for your help!

Open Enrollments students may be caught in the middle of solution to crowded New Berlin school
New Berlin - Under a new school district policy, children who attend local elementary schools under the Open Enrollment program might not move on to seventh grade at an already overcrowded Eisenhower Middle and High School.
To provide flexibility in case the number of students at Eisenhower gets too high, the New Berlin schools could now ask Open Enrollment sixth-graders to reapply for acceptance into the district. The reapplication would only be requested if there is no other way to handle Eisenhower overcrowding, School Board members said.
School officials are particularly worried about new students coming from a large tract of farmland within Eisenhower's boundaries that is in line for development, said Superintendent Joe Garza. The tract, section 35, is the largest piece of farmland east of Moorland Road and will include new homes.
Feeling connected
Parents of Open Enrollment students have pleaded with the School Board to keep the old policy assuring that Open Enrollment students can finish in New Berlin once they have been accepted.
"That was big for us," said David Primus, a firefighter in Milwaukee, who chose New Berlin for his two children over Whitnall and Greendale partly because of that assurance.
Primus said his children haven't cost the district anything because they fill classroom seats that would have sat empty. At the same time each one brought $6,600 into the schools every year in state Open Enrollment aid, he noted.
Beyond that they feel part of the school district.
"The kids have made friends, we've made friends," said Primus, who has coached in New Berlin and been a Boy Scout den leader as well. "We love the school district."
Other options first
One parent found some reassurance in the board's statement that it would look at other options before asking for sixth-graders to reapply.
Parent John Tsoris, who also spoke in favor of keeping the assurance of finishing school in New Berlin, was disappointed after the vote but recognized the possibility "is a last resort type of option."
"In my opinion, (district officials) will do the right thing," said Tsoris, who noted some school districts also require reapplications.
In an email to Superintendent Joe Garza, he even had a suggestion of his own: moving Eisenhower middle school students to the nearby and recently closed Glen Park Elementary School.
Making a waiting list
Not wanting to lose any Open Enrollment students, the School Board also established a waiting list at the same time it voted for reapplications. Tsoris sees that as an advantage.
Every January, school boards set the number of Open Enrollment seats that are available for the following fall. The districts are always conservative on the number they offer because they don't know if an influx of children unexpectedly moving into the district over the spring or summer, Tsoris said. The waiting list loosens up that conservative estimate.
"Now, they can keep it open until they know exactly what they have," he said.
Tough decision
School Board President David Maxey said the reapplication process doesn't mean the old policy has fallen out of favor.
"I liked the guarantee and I still do," Maxey said.
But space is the issue.
Because school officials don't see space as a crippling problem in the near future, Maxey supports the reapplication policy. It was determined that the board will not seek reapplications for the 2013-2014 school year.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - BP has declined for now to pay Alabama
on its $148 million claim seeking reimbursement for tax revenue
lost by the massive oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico - a move that
caused the governor to cut school funding.
BP officials partially blamed the lawsuit filed against the
company by Alabama Attorney General Troy King for the delay in
making payments on the $148 million claim.
Because the state is not receiving the BP payments, Gov. Bob
Riley cut the education budget by an additional 2 percent Thursday.
It already had been cut 7.5 percent. Riley said the move was
necessary because the state is required to balance the budget by
the end of the school year on Sept. 30.
Riley blamed King's lawsuit for the school budget cuts.

text: The new Democratic president of the Maine Senate wants to smooth relations with the state's Republican governor over dinner. Senate President Justin Alfond sent Gov. Paul LePage a handwritten note Thursday inviting the governor and his wife to dinner with Alfond and his wife "at a place of your choosing." Alfond's office provided the note in response to a public records request from the Portland Press Herald. The invitation followed LePage's cancellation Tuesday of a meeting with incoming Democratic legislative leaders to discuss issues facing the new Legislature. LePage said he would not meet with Democrats until the party called off a "tracker" hired by the Maine Democratic Party to videotape LePage's public appearances. There was no immediate word on whether LePage had accepted the dinner invitation.

Due to our continued success, the time for a name change is appropriate! With players from 3 states, and nearly 50 cities and towns, we are now a true NEW ENGLAND area team.
We also are moving to a new practice site(s), and have a direct tie-in with Coach Ralph Raymond, the U.S. Olympic Softball Head Coach in 1996 & 2000. Also, during the past 1.5 years, current and former Storm players are now receiving nearly $925,000 in ATHLETIC money from area colleges. The primary reason the coaches tell me is, Storm girls are well rounded, educated, softball players, capable of covering multiple tasks.
With progress there is the inevitable knock-off teams. We wish them success. They are carrying the Storm name BUT have NO connection to the TRUE 11 year young Storm program (NEW ENGLAND). There remains 1 true STORM, us!
We have openings for a U14 catcher, U16 catcher, and possibly a U18 pitcher. If you have any other questions on openings, please phone me (see below).
Please contact John Gambale (me) at 781-715-5193 with any questions. All will be kept in confidence!

Take a snapshot of your data center's current power and cooling infrastructure. In five years, it is likely to be radically different. Disruptive trends like IoT, cloud, and mobility already place extraordinary demands on network infrastructure. Demands on power and cooling systems, assuming you haven't addressed them yet, are not far behind. But, just how quickly are things changing?

Project Natick has made serious waves in the data center industry over the past two months. Natick is the name of Microsoft's subsea data center research project. The project aims to cut the costs of cooling modern infrastructure. And, it may yield a service that offers content providers extra capacity in proximity of billions of end users. So what can we learn from Project Natick that can be applied to data centers currently?

Compared to a decade ago, downtime cause by data center power outages are exceedingly rare. However, they can cost companies tens of thousands of dollars or more when they do occur. Should all power outages be accepted as an unavoidable part of data center reality? Or, are there some data center power outages that are actually preventable?

When orchestrated correctly, the data center is a symphony of disparate devices working together in complete harmony. But, the reality is that few data centers are as orderly as the New York Philharmonic. In 2012, the Uptime Institute published a report that found around 30% of data center servers were under-utilized or altogether idle. But why do idle servers exist in the data center in the first place?

Many micro- to nano-scale 3-D biological objects have a helical symmetry. Cryo electron microscopy provides 2-D projection images where, however, the images have low SNR and unknown projection directions. The object is described as a helical array of identical motifs, where both the parameters of the helical symmetry and the motif are unknown. Using a detailed image formation model, a maximum-likelihood estimator for the parameters of the symmetry and the 3-D motif based on images of many objects and algorithms for computing the estimate are described. The possibility that the objects are not identical but rather come from a small set of homogeneous classes is included. The first example is based on 316 128 ×100 pixel experimental images of Tobacco Mosaic Virus, has one class, and achieves 12.40-Å spatial resolution in the reconstruction. The second example is based on 400 128 ×128 pixel synthetic images of helical objects constructed from NaK ion channel pore macromolecular complexes, has two classes differing in helical symmetry, and achieves 7.84- and 7.90-Å spatial resolution in the reconstructions for the two classes.
