Adventure Journal is one of the wordpress themes that does not automatically contain a "HOME" tab on the navigation. I like the theme, but not having a HOME tab is poor UI. So, I want one.
To complicate matters, I chose Adventure Journal's header option to use my header image as my website title (see here http://www.stewardshipadventures.com). This *could* serve as a substitute for the HOME tab if the image were automatically hyperlinked to my home page. However, it is not. Again, poor UI.
Q: How do I get a homepage tab or alternatively hyperlink that header image to the homepage? I want my homepage to be the blog's landing page. THANKS.

Can I fetch all Facebook events in a specific city? All I need is event IDs nothing else. It should be all events (public), not only someone's events. Will Facebook let us fetch that info?
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
Elmcity does a simple search for a keyword in the event title. Try "Lancaster" for example. You'll get events in the UK, PA, NY OH and CA. You can also search for a non-location based word in the title like "picnic" and the script returns events.
You can try to query for events by location. With the graph API use the "Center" parameter in a search query:
Run the query in FB explorer tool.
There is no way to query events via FQL by location.
The maximum distance is 50000 and is expressed in meters. There are limits to the number of records that are returned but you can use paging to retrieve further events.
As of writing this (Jun 2015), facebook silently ignores the
the source come from this post: Source Post
You cannot query the event table without specifying an indexable column, i.e. an actual event Id. You could use the search functionality and query for event types, e.g.
Once you get these results you could then further filter out these by timezone and location.
While you can search for places or events near a place using the Facebook Graph API, I find this unreliable. Facebook does not expose standard categories to the API that allow you to filter on these, and there is no way that I am aware of to effectively search for venues that host events near an area and order them by relevance to what you are really looking for.
In practice, that means you can search for venues near a point. The Facebook API returns every coffee house that has an open mic night, but not an arena that hosts concerts.
Were I going to do this, I'd use this workflow:
Facebook search documentation implies that you can do a search for "objects" based on a location. For example you should be able to do
I'm guessing this feature is broken.

We currently have a web server running windows server 2003 with a combination of asp and asp.net sites.
This server has stopping responsing 3 times over the last 3 months, despite having the generation of a kernel memory dump and write an entry in the event logs when an bsod occurs nothing is been logged. When viewing the server locally it is nonresponsive with a blank screen we have to power cycle the server to bring it back up.
After the last time we replaced all of the hardware with the expection of the hard disks, does anyone have any idea what could be causing this or what we should look at?
One thing I've find in google is a blog posting saying that a fragmented hard disk could be the cause, as the disk is fragmented we will defrag it to see if that helps. Has anyone experienced this before?

A Russian prosecutor on Friday demanded a six-year jail sentence for top opposition leader Alexei Navalny on embezzlement charges he says are meant to sideline him from politics.
Judge Sergei Blinov scheduled the verdict hearing for July 18.
Observers say the trial of President Vladimir Putin's top critic, who has rallied thousands of people at opposition protests, appears to be an attempt to jail him before elections in September in which he is seeking to run for Moscow mayor.
Tensions in the stuffy courtroom in the Kirov region 600 kilometres (370 miles) northeast of Moscow escalated when the prosecutor said Navalny should be sent to a prison colony for six years and pay a fine of one million rubles ($30,000) for conspiring with co-defendant Pyotr Ofitserov to steal 10,000 cubic metres of timber worth 16 million rubles.
"That would be just and proportionate," said prosecutor Sergei Bogdanov, adding that Navalny should be arrested in the courtroom immediately after the verdict. He sought five years for Ofitserov, a businessman.
The defence has little hopes that judge Blinov would rule in favour of or give Navalny a suspended sentence.
"Neither me nor my client have any illusions," defence lawyer Svetlana Davydova said emotionally as she faced the judge, accusing the prosecution of "cynicism".
Responding to the charges, Navalny said the prosecution had failed to prove any wrongdoing on his part, calling the trial "absurd".
"I did not gain a single kopeck," he said, arguing that the only witness who testified against him was trying to escape punishment for his own corrupt dealings in the timber firm.
"How can you steal 16 million in such a way that nobody gained any money?" Navalny asked.
"I won't even go into the obvious political motivation of this case," he continued. "There are many similar cases against me... but the scope of the absurdity has to have limits."
The charismatic 37-year-old stands accused of causing a loss to the budget of the northern Kirov region in a timber deal in 2009 when he acted as an unpaid advisor to the governor.
Navalny, a lawyer by training, has been leading his own defence and has repeatedly tried to prove that no one was hurt in the business deal. He has also argued that his own role in the transaction was limited.
The Kirov governor -- liberal-leaning veteran of politics Nikita Belykh -- has testified in court as a witness for the defence.
Navalny quickly emerged as the star of the anti-Putin street protests that erupted in Moscow in late 2011, drawing huge crowds with some of the most fervent speeches against the former KGB spy's 13-year-rule.
He has branded the ruling United Russia party as "the party of crooks and thieves" -- a viral catchphrase that was mentioned on Kremlin-controlled television.
Navalny also won a strong Internet following by blogging about corruption and starting a movement devoted to unearthing extreme examples of lavish state spending by lawmakers and ministers.
His growing clout has led some observers to predict a long political future and the protest leader himself has not ruled out a potential presidential run.
But he has first set his sights on the Moscow mayoral seat in snap elections that have been called for September 8, to run against incumbent pro-Kremlin mayor Sergei Sobyanin who, despite being a member of United Russia, chose not to run on the ticket of the increasingly unpopular party.
Even a suspended sentence would bar Navalny from running in elections for the duration of his conviction term.

In its place, the restaurant's website notes, is "the Courtyard at Villard," which is dedicated to "light fare and drinks" served outdoors. Over at Eater, Ryan Sutton points to a recent promotion of OpenTable bonus points and a free Dom Perignon giveaway to four-tops as a possible sign of distress behind the scenes. The opulent restaurants, which take cues from Richard's places in D.C., opened last October, with an abundance of fine china and haute fried chicken. New York critic Adam Platt gave Villard Michel Richard two stars in January, while Times critic Pete Wells gave it none in a particularly scathing review. [Official Site via Eater NY]

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) _ A former employee of the Topeka Juvenile Correctional Complex has been released on bond in an inmate sex case.
The Topeka Capital-Journal is reporting that 30-year-old Jennifer Jerauld of Topeka is charged in Shawnee County District Court with two counts of unlawful sexual relations and one count of trafficking in contraband in a correctional facility.
Court records show she posted $25,000 bond Monday. The charges were filed last week.
She worked at the Topeka facility from October 2007 to June 2008. The correctional complex houses male inmates up to age 22.
The Kansas Attorney General's Office conducted the investigation.

Topic: Blood, Birth and Death
|The Inner Wolf
|Red is the Colour
To the left is a collage and drawing of "Alice". The wolf mouth represents the biological nature of the female body. The red tongue is a symbol of menstruation as aggressive, frightening and evil. The portrait photograph to the right is one of twelve photographs from a feminist art exhibition created by Ingrid Berthon-Moine. It shows a woman wearing her menstruation blood as lipstick. The photograph is shot at eye level, making it personal and intimate as it challenges the viewer.
Both of the artworks symbolise common aspects of menstruation across different cultures and societies. On one side is the "evil"; the stigma, oppression and negative attitudes and experiences females experience. which may affect their social and emotional well-being (Chang, Hayter & Lin, 2012; Johnston-Robledo & Chrisler, 2011). On the other side is the part of it which is natural, a part that symbolises femininity and a distinction between childhood and adulthood. Berthon-Moinehe (2009) is presenting her message against gender stereotypes and menstruation as a taboo through this artwork.
In today's society menstruation is still a taboo topic: something people are not comfortable to speak about (Chang, Hayter & Lin, 2012). This makes it especially important to address so the physical, emotional, spiritual and psychological well-being of members of a society have equal chances of good health.
Menstruation is a physiological part of the human experience as a female (Severy, 2000). It occurs for approximately forty years for roughly half of the world's population (Bobel & Kissling, 2011). Cultural and social aspects influence the way people experience and interpret menstruation, and therefore the symbolic meaning differs across different cultures and societies (Severy, 2000). In order to fully understand current beliefs and practices it is necessary to go back in time and look at ways early theorists have influenced the topic (Eldred, 1998; Grahn, 1993). Hence, this literature review will not only look at the current literature, but also use older literature relevant to this topic.
"Symbolic culture is an environment of objective facts—whose existence depends
entirely on subjective belief" (Knight, 2010)
Metaformic Theorist Judy Grahn hypothesises that ancient menstrual rituals have shaped today's world and culture. These are known as metaforms and include rituals, myths, ideas, or stories created to explain menstruation. Anthropological data from the last 400 years are the root of Metaformic Theory (Grahn, 1993). Cross-culturally, the symbolic meaning of menstruation is commonly presented as something "good" or "evil". Ideas and beliefs regarding menstruation are divided into three different themes; pollution, rites of passage and concepts of secrecy and seclusion (Britton, 1996).
Rites of passage
|Nepalese girls' rite of passage
In some cultures the first occurrence of menstruation is marked by certain rituals and celebrations .These forms of celebrations symbolise aspects such as future childbearing ability, passage into womanhood and femininity (Britton, 1996).
|Menstruation poison killing cattle and crops
There are several beliefs of menstruation as a polluting power, which are believed to ether harm the female herself, the people she encounters, or the nature (Britton, 1996; Ngubane, 1977; Helman, 2007). Amongst the Lele people in Africa, the menstruating woman cannot cook for her husband because they believe he may fall ill or die (Britton, 1996). Amongst the Zulu people of South Africa a menstruating woman is thought to be poisonous, and may kill animals and crops if she comes near them (Ngubane, 1977; Helman, 2007). Guatemalans share a similar belief but reason it with the woman becoming hot and getting a strong power (Britton, 1996). Opposing to this belief is the belief that menstruation gives strength (Eldred, 1998) and may be used in treating certain medical conditions (Britton, 1996). Some women also believe they are extra vulnerable during menstruation as they believe the uterus opens up and thus more susceptible to infection and germs. In modern societies women may view menstruation as a way of ridding herself of impurities that may be bad for her if kept in her body (Britton (1996).
Secrecy and seclusion
|Seclusion - Zulu menstruation hut
There are numerous rituals and beliefs regarding menstruation that influence the action of seclusion. These are often involving beliefs about light (fire, sun and moon), earth and water (Grahn, 1993). In some cultures women are secluded to a separated menstruation hut once a month. This is for example common amongst the Yaracares tribe, Parivarams and Zulu people (Grahn, 1993). In order to keep menstruating females away from the earth (touching the ground) they may be confined to a hut, cage or hammock which is build up from the ground (e.g. amongst the Loangos, New Irelands and South Americans) (Grahn, 1993). The reason why the female cannot touch water in certain societies is explained to be because they believe that the water source will dry up. She cannot even look at it because it may flood, or according to the Tiwi people the spirits may be angered and kill her. Amongst some cultures (e.g. the Jews) the menstruating woman could not bath during seclusion. She would then have a special bath after menstruation was over, called a "mikveh" (Grahn, 1993). The belief that menstruation is a polluting power, as previously mentioned, is another reason why they may be separated from the rest of the society (Eldred, 1998).
Eldred (1998) suggests that the view on menstruation as evil may stem from misinterpreting of the story of Adam and Eve, where some people believe Eve was punished for eating the forbidden fruit and thereafter "cursed" by menstruation. Other reasons may be due to the mystical and powerful side of it with for example syncronisation, which is found to be heavily influenced by nature such as the moon and sources of light (Grahn, 1993 p13).
The experiences girls have at menarche (first period) along with societies' attitudes and meaning of blood are thought to influence how they feel about menstruation later in life (WHO, 1983). For example, Severy (2000) and Britton (1996) point out that the negative symbol of discomfort and pain commonly presented by the media influence how women think about and experience menstruation (e.g. advertisements of hygiene products and ways to lessen pain).
"Inconvenient. Messy. Overemotional. Unpredictable. Nasty. Smelly. Overt.
Impossible to hide, incompatible with men.
Too red, too bright, too loud, too thick, too much." (Corinna, 2011)
It is important to consider the implications that negative social beliefs and symbolisms of menstruation can have for females. Britton (1996) points out that although it is common with education regarding menstruation, it is merely focusing on the reproductive aspects and leaves out the psychological and emotional responses girls may experience. There is currently limited research regarding this aspect and the implications different cultural and social beliefs may have on females and their mental and emotional well-being. Severy (2000) and Britton (1996) suggest that this may be because speaking about the topic and interviewing women about it has historically been associated with taboo, and still is in many cultures. Hence, anthropological researchers have often been using qualitative studies to deal with this sensitive matter (Britton, 1996). This provides in-depth information through personal interviews. However, they tend to be conducted over a short period of time and using retrospective methods (Van Boven and Ashworth, 2007). McFarland, Ross and DeCourville (1989) discovered through their study that females' recollection of the experience of their period may be biased.
Corrinna (2011) is sceptical to the research various health professionals and organisations (e.g. Association of Reproductive Health Professionals [ARHP] (2006) and Dr. Lesslie Miller (cited by Corrina, 2011)) have conducted on period suppression methods. This is because pharmaceutical companies often fund them, which may have biased the research. Britton (1996) highlights the importance of further anthropological research in order to incorporate different cultural beliefs, element and symbolic frameworks for policymakers responsible for education of the topic.
In today's western world the action of suppressing menstruation, hiding it and keeping it away is a form of body modification and a way females are ''supposed" to control their bodies, in order to fit in with the society's norm (Corrinna, 2011; Bobel & Kissling, 2011). There are several questions to ask regarding this. For example, who decides what the norm is and how does culture and society influence it?
Feminist Theory
From a feminist perspective, today's society focuses too much on the female body as objective rather than subjective as well as being too controlled by the society (Bobel & Kissling, 2011). They criticise the medicalising of normal body functions (such as menstruation) into being symbols of pathology; the female body becomes something unhealthy that needs treatment. (Litva & Eyles, 1995).
The view of menstruation as something bad results in 'othering', which means that those who 'other' (e.g. cultures, societies and males) secure their own identity by making themselves 'normal', whilst secluding the other group; in this case, menstruating women (Grove & Zwi, 2006). This may disempower and marginalise women, making them socially inferior (Grove & Zwi, 2006; Krumeich, 2001).
Symbolic Interactionism
When looking at the issue through a symbolic interactionist's perspective it gives the opportunity to take a step closer and individualise people and the social structure in order to discover how they interact (Litva & Eyles, 1995). This will therefore highlight differences between societies and cultures. For example, from this perspective it is the meaning of the practices and symbols menstruation represent that are meaningful (Litva & Eyles, 1995). Agency and active bodies are also emphasised in this theory (Hancock et al., 2000). The individual female's social interactions influence her feeling of well-being or good health.
Labelling Theory
Within symbolic interactionism is another theory, which is used when explaining health: the labelling theory. (Litva & Eyles, 1995). This theory explains that various persons participate in labelling an illness in the goal of developing a treatment regime. However, these labels may also stigmatise individuals or communities that are being labelled (Litva & Eyles, 1995). This is what also happens with menstruation when it is viewed as pathological. For example in 1987, PMS was officially listed as a psychiatric disorder (Severy, 2000).
Cultural Competency
Australia is a culturally diverse country, and it is therefore essential to consider cultural competency when dealing with people from different cultures and backgrounds about this topic. It focuses on integrating culture into the delivery of health care services by building the capacity of the health system.(National Health and Medical Research Council [NHMRC, 2005).
Awareness and future focus
This issue does not affect people equally for natural reasons. The most affected are young females around the time of puberty through their adult lives to menopause. However, males' negative attitudes towards menstruation are likely to worsen the situation in making women feel more ashamed, dirty and anxious (Chang, Hayter & Lin, 2012). Thus, it is important to work on raising awareness of it and aim towards openness and acceptance instead of taboo and disgust for the sake of females' optimal health and well-being. The focus of public health experts should be on educating health providers, sexual education teachers, and parents, so that they can improve the way they teach young people about menstruation. Doing more research on male behaviour and attitudes towards menstruation can also be beneficial as there is currently not much research on that aspect (Chang, Hayter & Lin, 2012) It will also be important for public health experts to work with the media on improving the types of messages and symbolisms they are showing to be more positive.
I think the artefact is a good representation of the topic, in that it represents the different perspectives and points out what needs to be worked on; the idea that menstruation is viewed as negative, disgusting, and something that should be hidden, when it in fact is a natural part of being a grown-up female. Personally I believe it is very important for everyone to have a sense of belonging to the society in which they live, which females do not have when they have this "bad thing".
As a result of this assignment, I feel that I have learned several valuable skills. I have learned to look at the world in different ways when assessing a topic. This enables me to understand the ways people from different cultures and backgrounds may think and experience things, let alone why the society is shaped the way it is. In a future career within health, I will most likely come across several people who have different beliefs and cultural experiences to me. This assignment has broadened my horizon and helped me prepare for when that time comes. Additionally, I am sure these skills will be valuable for future group work at University, where I may be working with students from other backgrounds and cultures or topics regarding this.
For the future, when I come across new or different ideas (e.g. on the news, through friends or professionals), I will consider different aspects of the topic, as there are many different social and cultural influences over how different people perceive the world in which we live.

Reflective comment 1:
I found your report very interesting and engaging. It highlights an important topic that many people do not know enough about. I agree with you (and Alice) that education is vital in aiming for making a change in the communities. Furthermore, I must admit that I previously shared a similar view on FGM as you. However, from learning about so many different ways of thinking about a topic and all the different aspects of in throughout this unit, it has changed my perspective on FGM (and other topics). As you mentioned, we cannot fully understand how they, in their cultures, experience it. We are looking at it based on our cultural morals, values and ethics, which influence the views we hold. Have you heard of Waries Dirie? She has written a book (in a series of three) named "Desert Flower". She writes about her personal story of her life as a nomad girl in Somalia and about her experience with FGM. She is now a spokesperson for the United Nations about FGM, and is working on educating societies and relevant people about it. I would highly recommend it if you are interested. Overall, I must say you have done a great job, and the artefact was very inspiring.
Reflective comment 2
I found your report very interesting, especially the part where you write about the difference between people with collectivist and individualist cultures. I agree with you that cultural awareness is important to consider in public health and health care services. We live in a multi-cultural society, something that enhances the importance of cultural safety. I also find the limitation of the studies interesting; the fact that there is not much research conducted other that in a few countries. This may very well have biased some of the studies. Your artefact caught my eye and made me very interested to read your topic. I found the artefact amusing at first. However, I felt that I understood the deeper aspects of it after I had finished reading it. Well done with your report!

Hello I'm new to pl sql and am trying to make a query like this:
SELECT column1, sum (column2)
FROM table1
WHERE sum (column2) <> 0
GROUP BY column1
Basically what I would like to do is to select only those rows where the sum(column2) grouped by column1 is <> 0.
This query gives me an ORA-00934 error which makes sense because in the WHERE clause it is not specified that the sum operation must be grouped by column1 (or at least I think this is the problem).
I tried different solutions like:
SELECT CASE WHEN SUM(column2) <> 0 then (SUM(column2), column1) END
but pl-sql does not like it.
What works would be:
SELECT column1, case when SUM(column2) <> 0 then SUM(column2) END
But in this case I don't have exactly what I want since the result is a pseudotable like the one from SELECT column1, SUM(column2)... except for the fact that I see white fields where the SUM(column2) = 0 while I don't want to see the whole row.
Can anybody help me?
Thank You

This paper describes recent progresses on the development of a new type of latching micro magnetic relay that has recently been demonstrated. The device is based on preferential magnetization of a permalloy cantilever in a permanent external magnetic field. Switching between two stable states is accomplished by a short current pulse through an integrated coil underneath the cantilever. Some key features are summarized as follows. (1) Latching (bistable); (2) low energy consumption during switching (/spl lsim/93 /spl mu/J, switching current /spl sim/60 mA, minimum switching pulse width /spl sim/0.2 ms); (3) low voltage operation (/spl sim/5 V); (4) maximum DC current >500 mA; (5) capable of various switch configurations [single-pole-single-throw (SPST), multi-pole-single-throw (MPST), or multi-pole-double-throw (MPDT)]; (6) low contact resistance (/spl lsim/50 m/spl Omega/); (7) operation in ambient environment; (8) lifetime >5/spl times/10/sup 6/ cycles at 240 /spl mu/A, (9) batch fabrication using planar processing methods. We report new results on latching relays with multistrip permalloy cantilevers to improve the operation stability and with an off-center flexure bar to decrease the contact resistance.

All Hero MotoCorp Hunk Versions
Editorial Review of the Hero MotoCorp Hunk bike
Hero world's largest two wheeler manufacturer launched the Hunk motorcycle back in 2007 when it still was Hero Honda. This 150ccwas refreshed in 2011 by adding some muscular shaded to it.
Coming to the styling of the motorcycle, just look at the bike and you will know that the name Hunk suits the overall design of the bike. Ithas got front fairings at the front of the fuel tank near the thigh rest areas. It also has miniscule additional fairings near the front shocks at the wheel arch location. Overall it gives a masculine appeal and is good for the riders above 6 feet frame. The tail lights look nice with LED lights in it. All back finish has been provided to the engine, and exhaust tail pipe. The rear view mirrors have some solid amount of support material.
Earlier the bike used tocome with an analogue speedometer but in 2011 it was changed to digital speedo, but the RPM meter stillcomes as ananalogue unit. The RPM meter sits at the centre and is dominant. The speedometer is kind of tucked away at one corner. It also includes the fuel meter, high beam and turn indicators. Overall, it is quite functional in the appearance with some chrome linings.
The Hero Hunk offers a 149.2 cc engine whichproduces outan impressive 14.4 PS of power at 8500 RPM and 12.8 Nm of torque at 6500 RPM. Although the power is class leading in the segment with ample of torque at lower revs but the power delivery is not that smooth. Also when riding in the city roads it is not quick and response time is not that quick and you will feel a lag. Apart fromit, gearbox of the bike is another downside of the bike, it is not at all smooth. The shiftingbetween 5-speed gearbox is not that refinedand will take time toget used to.
The manufacturer has focused on to make the bike more fuel efficient and though there is lag during the ride but the bike scores in fuel economy, which here in in India is the top priority of the riders. Mileage is claimed by the company to be 55 kmpl. On road, you can expect a decent figure of 50!
Talking about the handling of the motorcycle, unfortunately it fails to impress. Althoughthe seating position is quite nice and will not give much of back pain or fatigue during long rides, making it good for long distance touring. The pillion seat is also quite comfortable. To absorb the bumpy road it has been provided with twin GRS (Gas Reservoir) adjustable shocks at the rear and telescopic ones at the front, the suspension fairly do a good job in absorbing the bumpy road. On the downside, the bike is a little to heavy at 146kg and can become a problem to handle on slushy and uneven terrain. With the weight being more, the cornering capability of the bikes drops significantly. The tires also does not help much. Although, the braking performance is decent. The bikecomes with standard 240mm disc at the front and a 220 mm disc at the rear.There is also a rear drum brake version at aslightly cheaper cost.

Man sentenced up to 33 years in campus attack
HILLSBOROUGH, N.C. -- A man who drove a rented sport utility vehicle into a lunchtime crowd on the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill campus was sentenced Tuesday to up to 33 years in prison.
Orange Superior Court Judge Carl Fox ordered a prison term of 26 years and two months to 33 years for Mohammed Taheri-Azar, 25, for the 2006 attack at The Pit, a gathering spot outside the student union.
Taheri-Azar declined to speak in court. Against his client's wishes, his attorney, James Williams, made a brief argument for a lesser sentence of about 20 years. The judge dismissed it.
Wildfire burns as many as 10 homes in Idaho
BOISE, Idaho -- A wildfire that started in a field of sagebrush and cheatgrass spread quickly up a ridge and burned as many as 10 homes in Boise neighborhood Monday night.
There was no immediate word on any injuries. Residents said the fire quickly engulfed and destroyed the middle-class homes on the city's southeast side.
Dozens of homes and residents were evacuated. A nearby church owned by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was opened to provide shelter for evacuees.
Study: Ayurvedic medicines can contain toxic metal
Ayurvedic medicines -- herbal mixtures dating back thousands of years in India and increasingly popular in the West -- are frequently contaminated with lead, mercury or arsenic, according to a study published today.
A fifth of the nearly 200 concoctions tested contained levels of the toxic metals.
Dr. Robert Saper, a Boston University professor of family medicine who led the study, said the findings should spur the Food and Drug Administration to start clamping down on the largely unregulated world of pills, herbs and powders classified as dietary supplements.

Congratulations on a good broad overview of the history and current status of oral anticoagulant drugs.1 In this regard, I would like to mention briefly some recent data that may be of interest to readers.
Kant and colleagues2 have described the occurrence of warfarin-induced skin necrosis in relationship to peritoneal dialysis—associated loss of protein S. It is suggested that these losses may become critical in certain settings and, hence, this complication must be kept in mind when managing the patients with peritoneal dialysis who receive warfarin therapy.
Ansell discusses the prompt administration of vitamin K and the use of prostacyclin in the management of this condition. Some investigators3 have demonstrated the continuation or reinstitution of oral anticoagulant therapy in these patients without further skin involvement. It is postulated that, as skin necrosis occurs due to a more rapid reduction in protein C levels compared with other factors

Comic-Con Trailers: The Best of the Best, Ranked
Film, TV
If you're a fan of superheroes, there's been some point where you wished you had superpowers. But in the 2014 graphic novel Average Joe from Com.X, you'll find out what happens when everyone had superpowers.
Created by longtime Ain't It Cool writer Rob Patey (aka Optimous Douche) and illustrated by Stephen Andrade, Average Joe showcases a world in which superpowers aren't too super any more, but just the status quo. According to the writer, Average Joe asks, "What if the whole world had superpowers, yet we never became better as a result?" Com.X has provided ROBOT 6 with an exclusive first look at this full-color graphic novel, along with an official description:
In February, former Vertigo editor Casey Seijas and artist Amancay Nahuelpan are taking comics fans to 1970s Jamaica with the Com.X graphic novel Duppy '78. Into the capital of Kingston to be exact, to follow a fictional gang war that runs the gamut from drugs to guns to voodoo. The situation goes from bad to worse when one of the crime lords is assassinated, putting into play a child practitioner of voodoo arts and master of what Rastafarian religion calls ghosts, duppy.
Seijas has provided ROBOT 6 with an exclusive five-page preview of the graphic novel, as well as a description of the book and this excerpt:
Former Vertigo editor Casey Seijas has a story he wants to tell — a story about Jamaican gangsters, Rastafarian ghost stories and the dark summer of 1978 in Kingston.
In the upcoming graphic novel Duppy '78, by Seijas and artist Amancay Nahuelpan, a group of Jamaican crime lords are fighting to control ancient and malevolent Rastafarian spirits known as the Duppy. When one of the crime lords is killed over control of these spirits, the Kingston underworld erupts as the remaining players vie for control over the Duppy and the young mystics who are said to be able to control them. Mixing Jamaican history and Rastafarian religious ideas, Duppy '78 looks to meld two distinct genres into something that could be surprises.
Graffiti. Gangs. Gentrification. An unlikely group, but the recently announced Monster Myths OGN from Com.X is an unlikely book.
Like some sort of urban Tale of Two Cities, this book shows an enterprising group of graffiti taggers trying to instigate a war between their fellow working-class residents and the greedy, corporate land barons eager to turn their disheveled homes into dollar signs. At the center of it is a convict named Alfredo, who is trying to find a way to make a life for himself and ends up being the face of a working-class revolution.
Monster Myths' creator John Lupo Avanti is barreling into the world of comics on a unique trajectory. Hailing from the world of animation, Avanti has reoriented to doing freelance illustration from fine arts to murals, tattoos and, as you guessed, comics.
Avanti's Monster Myths is the latest in a line of books the British publishing house Com.X. has brought forth into the world. Although it struggled with growing pains in its first years, Com.X re-emerged in the past two years as a more regimented and mature outlet for unique voices in comics.
Monster Myths is scheduled for a June 2012 release, and is currently available for pre-order in the current issue of Diamond's Previews catalog.
After some bumps on the road after their launch in 2000, the British comics publisher Com.X Comics is quickly turning into a publisher to watch. It became best known for the hero series Cla$$war, which took the idea of superheroes in a more realistic and brutal direction, not unlike contemporaries such as The Authority did at the time. But the aforementioned bumps on the road — scheduling, loss of artists — saw Com.X fail to follow through immediately on their first hints of success. But all that is changing.
In 2008 Com.X reorganized and recommitted itself as a publisher, organizing a new slate of titles that's coming out in 2011. Ross Mackintosh's Seeds offers a touching autobiographical story of a man dealing with his father's death from cancer, and the faux-journalism coverage of a super-hero universe with 2010's Forty-Five opened the door for an entire line of titles beginning with the upcoming Blue Spear. Their next big title is Babble, a project by Lee Robson and Bryan Coyle concerning a secret universal language and why it's been shrouded from the public for centuries.
And Com.X's eye for talent continues with the use of phenomenal artists like Cosmo White. During its early years they showed a remarkable eye for talent by being among the first to note uber-talented artists like Joshua Middleton, Steve McNiven, Cary Nord, Trevor Hairsine, Ben Oliver, Travel Foreman and Neil Googe. Those talents quickly found work at Marvel and DC, but Com.X continues to find the next big things before the big publishers do.
Artist Joshua Middleton, who most recently provided covers for DC's Supergirl, has announced he's finished with mainstream comics work, at least "for the foreseeable future."
"I have plenty of other stuff to keep me busy, and I want to dedicate every minute of my free time to personal work only," Middleton writes on his bog, "so the comic book covers had to go, bringing to an end, with a whimper, ten years of mainstream comic book work-for-hire."
The news leaves open the possibility that Middleton could return to Sky Between Branches, his creator-owned "illustrated fairy tale" that saw just one issue from Com.x in 2002.
Middleton, who's known in recent years primarily for his cover illustrations, began his comics career in 2000 on CrossGen's Meridian. At Marvel, he drew the first four issues of NYX, as well as covers for New Mutants, before signing with DC Comics in 2004. There, he provided covers for American Virgin, Vixen: Return of the Lion and Supergirl, and drew the 2005-2006 miniseries Superman/Shazam: First Thunder and the 2007 one-shot Outsiders: Five of a Kind #4.
If you found out your kid was possibly going to be born with super powers, you'd probably want to do a little research into what exactly that meant. For fictional journalist James Stanley, that means conducting 45 different interviews about super powers and how they've changed the lives of the people who have them.
This December Com.X is publishing an illustrated book that collects those 45 interviews called, naturally Forty-Five. Written by Andi Ewington, each interview includes an accompanying page of art illustrated by a different artist, with no "predetermined brief" given — just the written page as guidance. Artists for the project include Jock, Fiona Staples, Liam Sharp, Dan Brereton and many more.
My thanks to Andi, who was kind enough to share some additional details on the book.
Legal | Twin brothers in New Glasgow, Nova Scotia, have been sentenced to three months in jail for possessing anime- and manga-style images depicting children in sexual situations.
David Scott Hammond and James Cory Hammond, 20, pleaded guilty to possessing child pornography after police discovered the images downloaded on their home computer last November. Although David Hammond's attorney said his client didn't realize it was illegal to download cartoon pornographic images of children, the prosecutor asserted that, "Every one of these images involves the victimization of children. The victimization wouldn't happen in the first place if there weren't people there to look at this material."
Earlier this month, lawmakers in Alaska began considering a bill that would expand the state's child-pornography laws to include cartoons. And in June a U.S. appeals court upheld the conviction of a Virginia man who was prosecuted, in part, under a 2003 federal statute outlawing possession of cartoon images depicting the sexual abuse of children. [The Chronicle Herald]
Publishing | The San Francisco headquarters of Viz Media was closed for two days this week after an unexpected downpour on Monday caused storm drains to overflow, flooding parts of the city. [Anime News Network]
Publishing | Just last week we were reporting that Villard had acquired the rights to Fated, a graphic novel written by Michael Jackson and Gotham Chopra. Now comes word that the Random House imprint paid $800,000 for it. Illustrated by Mukesh Singh, artist of Virgin Comics titles Gamekeeper, Devi and Jenna Jameson's Shadow Hunter, the black-and-white book is due out in June. [Crain's New York Business]

It's typical New England weather. The fall is the prettiest time of year but the beginning of second semester is the worst.
Typical New England weather. Freezing in the winters and hot and mildly humid in the summer. Many organizations try to take advantage of the beautiful weather come springtime by organizing outdoor events.
New England weather is as temperamental as one would expect. Snow has cancelled classes a couple of times. Overall, it is manageable.
The campus is on a hill, so it gets pretty windy, but when it's warm out it's really nice.
The weather has sucked lately with all the snow and freshman have to walk to clubbies but its not a bad walk its under 10 minutes. Also the classes are all close enough that you only have to be in the bad weather for a few minutes
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
Be prepared: New England has all four seasons. When you arrive in September, you'll still be wearing summer clothes, sleeping with the windows open, and cranking the fan up to high. Shortly thereafter, a drastic change occurs, and suddenly it's fall, and the foliage on campus achieves its peak autumnal beauty. As quickly as fall comes, it leaves, banishing those red and golden leaves to the ground. As they scatter and brown, a notable temperature drop takes place, and soon, flutters of snowflakes float on the crisp winter air. Winters in Rhode Island can be harsh, dropping below zero with the wind chill factor. A rainy season makes up the majority of the spring, although there will be a few gloriously sunny days. Pack for all the seasons and all types of weather.
The one drawback of weather on the PC campus is the constant presence of wind. The majority of days are characterized by a chilling and bitter wind. "Blustery" best describes the campus weather, so be sure to take a jacket with you. While competing with the wind may sound daunting, Providence can brag of a diversity of experience in regards to weather. The autumn leaves can't be beat, and the downy blankets of snow that occasionally grace the campus charm the aesthetic sense.

Is there a way I can increase the size of the images in the posts, for bigger screens?
Another problem that I have noticed in the case of bigger screens( around 1920 x 1080) is that images with captions tend to shift more towards the left, even though I click the center align option.
Also, I have noticed that for bigger screens, the posts on the homepage shift towards the left,leaving a huge gap on the right between the post and the content sidebar.
Any help would be much appreciated.
I can't find the attach file option, so I am adding the link to a screenshot: http://www.megafileupload.com/en/file/543890/Screenshot-of-captioned-image-moving-left-in-1920-x1080-screen-jpg.html

Sam Houston managed just two shots on target as the Bearkats lost 4-0 to an Illinois State team that made it to the second round of the NCAA Tournament last season. The Kats will host Prairie View Sunday at 6:30 p.m. as they search of their first win of the season.
A pair of late goals by Illinois State made the match appear to be lopsided. The Bearkats trailed just 1-0 for the first 70 minutes of the match and were only down 2-0 with less than seven minutes remaining.
Sam Houston goalkeeper Kylie Hambleton's goal was peppered with shots by the Redbirds. She faced 15 total shots and was called upon to make a pair of saves in the match.
The Kats were only able to manage five shots in the match, forcing two saves from Illinois State 'keeper Aryn Newsom.
The match started two hours later than originally scheduled because of thunder storms in College Station.
