WWF's Work in Nepal
WWF started working in Nepal from 1967 when it launched a rhino conservation program in Chitwan. To keep up with the evolving face of conservation and environmental movement, WWF Nepal's focus progressed from its localized efforts in conservation of single species in 1960s, integrated conservation and development approach in 1990s, to a new horizon of landscape level conservation encompassing national, regional and global scales of complexity in early 2000s.
WWF Nepal is focused in the Terai Arc Landscape (TAL) and Sacred Himalayan Landscape (SHL), including Koshi river Basin, and Chitwan Annapurna Landscape (CHAL) under the USAID-funded Hariyo Ban program. WWF Nepal works to conserve flagship and priority key species, forests, freshwater, and to mitigate the pervasive threat of climate change to communities, species and their habitats. Read more →

Ultrastructurally there are some clear differences in the pathology of muscle in X chromosomelinked muscular dystrophy of the mouse (mdx) and Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). In particular the mouse muscle does not become infiltrated by large aggregations of connective tissue. It has been proposed that the differences are due to secondary biochemical changes consequent on the absence of dystrophin in both conditions. If this is the case, attention should be directed to the earliest ultrastructural changes held in common by both disorders. The most conspicuous of these, preceding myofibril breakdown, is dilation of the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Any physiological link between this and the absence of dystrophin remains to be determined. We suggest that in themdx mouse, the widespread myofibre necrosis occurring at 3–4 weeks is triggered by increased mechanical demands causing the lack of dystrophin to become critical at this time. Subsequent regeneration of the myofibres appears to be almost completely successful. The ultimate failure of regeneration in DMD, in contrast, may be due to an additional factors acting in DMD exacerbating the lack of dystrophin. This additional factor may be associated with the plasma membrane lesions (not seen inmdx). Alternatively there may be factors present in the mouse that compensate for the lack of dystrophin. It is pointed out that to understand better the different processes occurring inmdx and DMD we need to learn more about the factors which control the balance between the growth of muscle and the growth of connective tissue in both normal and pathological human and mouse muscle.

I'm sorry, but this guy is a dope. He keeps calling it a "newsstand" but he doesn't sell any newspapers or magazines? His stand died a long time ago, and what he needs isn't architects and engineers, it's an ass in the seat 12 hours a day, and some FRICKIN' NEWSPAPERS. Nostalgia is great and everything, and it would be nice if this was real, but it's NOT REAL. He needs to sit in there all day, and if he doesn't want to do that, and doesn't want to hire someone else to do it, then he's got nothing.
if he sold porn magazines thatd be freaking awesome. get a duvet at ross and a club at the stand
I agree with @1.
In substance, but especially the tone, the rhetorical stance, the use of caps and use of "frickin.'"
Jonah - this is not "Seattle's Last Newsstand". Please stop referring to it as such. First of all, it is a kiosk. Second of all, his "newspaper" stock consists of free local rags and the SGN for 25 cents. Third, and most importantly, there is a rockin' newsstand at the entrance to the Market. That place rules, and their foreign magazine and newspaper section is the best in the city.
I don't understand all the attention and love this stand is getting on here. It's gross, it doesn't really sell anything, and I think I've only seen someone actually running it about 3 times in the last two years.
This week I noticed the big magazine store over by Yesler(4th or 5th Ave. I think) is closed. When did that happen, and where was the LA times feature then, huh?
Not once have I seen that shit-hole open. If you want a newsstand got to the corner of Pine & First at the Pike Place Market.
That stand has been closed at least 95% of the entire time I've lived here (if not the entire time) until Gant perked up his movement to keep it a short time ago. Maybe if he wanted it to stick around, he should have kept it open. This isn't exactly Gus Hellthaler fighting for the survival of his Blue Moon Tavern: at least Blue Moon's open for business everyday.
Ben Gant should give up the newstand dream and pursue voice-over work or become an auctioneer. You can't really tell from this video but he's got a great voice.
This guy seems mildly mentally ill, in a charming sort of way.
First of all the rags I sell (The Facts,SGN,and Russian world news) are not available anywhere else downtown. The other FRICKIN PAPERS will not let me carry them.
SMC code says I must be open 1 1/2 hours a day and I have done that since 4/16/07 after I was granted a restraining order against the city.
I would love to put the whole story out there, but it would be counter productive. Secondly I did think of selling just porn and calling it The Smut Peddler. The city would love that.
it is utterly amazing what effort has been made to close this little operation down
city admin sucks big time - and all the so called liberals are forced democrats - in any other city they would be the R;s
go ben, kick back, mark one for the really little guys
in a city that mostly shits on everybody but gates and allen
I'm a bit surprised that Gant isn't selling The Seattle Times or the P-I, as they tend to allow anyone with a valid business license, permit and taxpayer I.D. number to buy papers wholesale and sell retail.
That he doesn't sell those papers -- along with his "I'm gonna keep this open the bare minimum hours I have to" attitude tells me just how seriously he takes this. What a lame, tired grudge match.

MisterJ. Funny you would quote Keith Olbermann of all people. Arguably the most
hateful news commentator ever. Too much hate even for MSNBC, eventually costing
him his job.
Ansah is a good kid and deserves to go early in the draft. But he is going to quickly learn that NFL is a far cry from college. I think it will be tough going for awhile. But if he is as teachable as they say he is, he'll be OK, because he has the raw skills.

I'll impart some wisdom from Chris Jericho that I'm sure KO would agree with, "Lighten up junior."
As for Ansah, He is raw with loads of potential. He is a huge reach in the top 10. Going to the Giants would be ideal. I just pray he doesn't get drafted by the putzburgh stealers.

Ziggy just ran a 4.62 40 at the NFL Combine - the fastest 40 by an Defensive
Lineman. Word is, he's all but clinched a first-round draft slot; now it
depends on the needs of the teams picking at the top of the draft on how high in
the draft Ziggy is taken.
Just read about Star Lotulelei's heart condition. I hope it's not too serious, but the timing is terrible for Star. Missing the Combine with something as serious as a heart problem could be huge for his draft prospects, or even having a career in the NFL, depending on how serious it is.

I wouldnt see his guidance.
BYU fans have been telling me that "he" doesn't want people watching/playing sports on sundays.
So if ziggy really does communicate with "him", "he" will tell ziggy not to play in the NFL.
Right byu fans?
Please - be consistent with what you've been telling me.

There's not any inconsistency in Ziggy seeking Heavenly Father's guidance in every aspect of his life, including playing in the NFL.
Lots of professions require work on the Sabbath - doctors, nurses, utility workers, broadcast media, police, firefighters, airline pilots, hospitality workers, dairy farmers, snow plow drivers - the list goes on and on.
I know it's a fine line, but there's a subtle but important difference between working on the Sabbath because you're required to as part of your profession and voluntarily participating in a recreational activity on the Sabbath.

That's what we love about boy bands: We get older and they, well, they get older too.
Still, we can't deny that a number of boy banders from decades past have aged like fine wine. Some even look better now than they did in their group-choreography heyday. For instance, though it's been exactly 15 years since the Backstreet Boys released Millennium, compare the album's cover to this photo of them today. No contest, right?
Take a look for yourself, as we send our favorite boy-band fellas on a trip through our patented Photoshop time machine.

Hot answers tagged configuration
What will occur depends on how you have setup your web server. A web server may be setup to display an index page - that is a page that is displayed when a directory is accessed.

Probably the server doesn't recognize the script as executable, and that's why it offers it as a downloadable file. These lines should be present in your Apache config.

As Stephen Ostermiller says, in this case you want to add "conf" to the line beginning with "text/plain" in: includes/mime.types In other cases though it may not be this simple. When you upload a file, mediawiki executes the PHP function mime_content_type("my_uploaded.wth"); which takes the result and looks it up in includes/mime.types. If you find ...

The problem is that code inside "extension tags" like <syntaxhighlight> is not parsed, which is why the {{{code}}} is not replaced with the value of the code parameter.

It sounds like your doc just figured he would try it and hope, but it really sounds like a viral infection, and in spite of Hopyard's belief, antibiotics don't work on viral infections. Anyway, I hate that plugged ear feeling. Several years ago, at exactly noon on a Saturday, my left ear plugged. After 2 weeks, in spite of everything that I tell my patients to do (and several things I won't tell my patients), it remained plugged. Finally, the day before I was to fly to Vegas for an interview, I called upstairs to the ENT department (I worked first floor in Urgent Care), and I was able to get a same day appointment. The ENT performed a myringotomy (He inserted a needle through my eardrum) to equalize the air pressure. Finally my ear felt fine. Two days after I returned, the ear plugged back up. I had to make another trip upstairs, and another needle. But finally, I could hear again, and it was cured.

Battling Breast Cancer
Black women at risk
WebMD Feature
June 12, 2000 -- In Faith Fancher's house, high in the hills above San Francisco Bay, her cat Lazarus tiptoes around the living room. Here and there, framed photographs testify to Faith's 27 years as an award-winning TV news reporter.
As in television, each picture tells a story: There's Faith, smiling as she wins a journalism award. There's Faith, tanned and glowing during a trip to Mexico. There's Faith in a black halter dress, looking just like Whitney Houston with her tousled hair and red lipstick.
But look at Faith Fancher herself today, and you see a different woman.
The woman in the photographs is bald now, curled up on the sofa with Lazarus and wearing an old pair of blue sweatpants. Her hair is gone, all of it, even her eyebrows. "I haven't shaved in eight months," says Fancher, laughing ruefully. "I look like a peeled egg."
Like her tousled hair in the photo (actually a wig), Fancher's slinky halter was also an illusion, carefully fitted to hide her port, a plastic tube surgically inserted into her chest through which chemotherapy drugs drip into her bloodstream. Only the red lipstick remains, a vivid reminder that Fancher, 49, is very much alive despite two bouts with breast cancer.

Closing a New Card
Hi, I am hoping someone can offer advice for my situation.
It seems that looking at a graph of my credit score over time that after I opened a new credit card my credit score dropped about 20 points. I believe the reason is that although my credit history is long, going all the way back to 1990 for my first credit card, I have only had that one credit card. The reason for this is that I have lived overseas for most of that time. I simply kept that one credit card open for the odd times that I travelled back to the US and to send Christmas and birthday gifts to family in the US. I am grateful that I kept the card open because at least I have some basic credit history and my credit is very clean.
When I returned to the US about a year ago I opened up an AMEX charge card. I didn't really notice a drop in my credit score. Next, I got a new visa a couple of months ago and looking at my credit history I notice that when I opened that card my credit score seems to have dropped 20 points. Is it because the average length of my credit accounts now got lowered because of the new card? If I close that newer card would the average age of my accounts go up again?
Thanks for anyone who can help me with this question. Cheers, CE

The came from across the mainland to a paddock in Mosgiel -
18 ploughmen and one ploughwoman on the straight and narrow.
Sunday's ploughing match, at Dukes Rd South, is a tradition
on the Taieri that goes back to 1860.
''We were supposed to plough a fortnight ago but it snowed,''
Taieri Ploughing Association president Keith Macaulay said.
''We do have air-conditioning but the heating isn't so
good,'' he joked.
Mr Macaulay said rain and snow had made it hard work.
''It was pretty cheesy stuff. It's sticky and turned over in
one block.''
Competitors had three hours to each work an area 20m by 60m.
It is an exact science but what makes a good plough?
The official line is: ''A seed bed that requires minimum
cultivation in order to produce the maximum crop.''
That means furrows straight and even, not too deep, maximum
soil exposed, and trash well buried.
And the last furrow must turn back to where the ploughing
began. Easier said than done.
Results: silver plough qualified, Scott McKenzie; open class
winner, Mark Dillon; vintage winner, Alister Rutherford;
commercial winner, John Miller.

Honoring Leading Thinker W.E.B. DuBois
February is Black History Month and Tell Me More observes the month with a series of short vignettes. In this installment, regular contributor Ron Christie shares his black history hero.
I'm Ron Christie, former Special Assistant to President George W. Bush and a frequent contributor to Tell Me More's Political Chat and Barbershop segments. I am honored to salute W.E.B. DuBois, as we celebrate Black History Month.
DuBois' storied life as a sociologist, historian and intellectual leader, as well as his invaluable contributions in pursuit of equality are often overlooked today. He was the first African- American to earn a Ph.D. from Harvard University in 1895 and founder of the Niagara Movement, an organization that evolved into the NAACP.
His "Credo" is among his most widely read work. Here's an excerpt:
"I believe in Liberty for all men; the space to stretch their arms and their souls; the right to breathe and the right to vote, the freedom to choose their friends, enjoy the sunshine and ride on the railroads, uncursed by color; thinking, dreaming, working as they will in a kingdom of God and love. I believe in the training of children black even as white; the leading out of little souls into the green pastures and beside the still waters, not for pelf or peace, but for Life..."
I salute W.E.B. DuBois for his bravery, his insights and his belief that all men and women should be treated as equals at a time when being black and seeking such equality came with tremendous risk.

Practical Task Scheduling Deployment

One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of criteria. It's pretty easy to string these tools together to build even more powerful tools, such as a tool that finds all of the .log files in the /home directory and searches each one for a particular entry. This erector-set mentality allows UNIX system administrators to seem to always have the right tool for the job.
Cron traditionally has been considered another such a tool for job scheduling, but is it enough? This webinar considers that very question. The first part builds on a previous Geek Guide, Beyond Cron, and briefly describes how to know when it might be time to consider upgrading your job scheduling infrastructure. The second part presents an actual planning and implementation framework.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

IBM's $1.7 Billion Netezza Deal May Prompt Rival Bids
International Business Machines Corp.'s $27-a-share deal to acquire Netezza Corp. pushed the stock above that level, suggesting investors may expect a competing bid for the analytics-technology provider.
IBM, the world's largest computer-services provider, struck a cash deal worth about $1.7 billion, according to a statement from the company today. Marlborough, Massachusetts-based Netezza's stock topped the per-share offer by $1.27.
Netezza, whose clients include NYSE Euronext and Estee Lauder Cos., integrates hardware with programs that store and analyze data. It's one of the few data-warehousing companies that's gained customers, making it an attractive buy for large technology corporations looking to increase sales, said Keith Bachman, an analyst at BMO Capital Markets.
"Larger companies are finding it harder to grow so when they see an interesting technology, they're willing to pay up for it," said New York-based Bachman, who rates IBM "outperform." Possible counter-bidders could include Hewlett- Packard Co., Dell Inc. and Cisco Systems Inc., he said.
Netezza rose $3.67, or 15 percent, to $28.27 at 4 p.m. in New York Stock Exchange composite trading. IBM, based in Armonk, New York, gained $1.60 to $131.79. Teradata Corp., which also provides analytics and storage technology, climbed 7.5 percent after analysts cited it as a potential target.
Last month, competition over data-storage maker 3Par Inc. sparked a bidding war between HP and Dell, resulting in six public bids for the company. HP ended up offering 3Par investors about triple its share price.
HP Criticisms
Netezza Chief Executive Officer Jim Baum and Arvind Krishna, a general manager in IBM's software group, declined to comment on the possibility of a counterbid. Kristin Carvell, a Cisco spokeswoman, and David Frink, a spokesman for Dell, also declined to comment. HP spokesman Hani Durzy didn't immediately respond to requests for comment.
IBM CEO Sam Palmisano last week criticized HP for the 3Par acquisition, saying his rival has to pay high premiums for acquisitions because it had reduced spending on research and development.
The Netezza purchase is about 85 times earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization during the past year, compared with 325 times Ebitda for HP's 3Par deal, according to Bloomberg data.
The per-share price is 9.8 percent more than Netezza's Sept. 17 closing price and a 33 percent premium to its average price over the past 20 days, according to Bloomberg data. In the past five years, IBM has made 75 acquisitions with an average premium of 30 percent.
Netezza has to pay IBM $56 million if it terminates the deal, according to regulatory filings. The acquisition is set to close next quarter. UBS AG advised IBM, while Qatalyst Partners assisted Netezza.
Analytics Acquisitions
Palmisano said in May he is planning to spend about $20 billion on acquisitions in the next five years, investing in markets such as analytics software, which helps companies predict trends.
By packaging hardware with analytics software, Netezza helps clients analyze data more quickly, Krishna said in a phone interview. The deal was finalized this morning, he said, declining to comment further on the timeline of negotiations.
IBM has spent more than $20 billion on 100 purchases since Palmisano took over in 2002, as he shifts IBM's focus to software and services from hardware. His largest purchase was business-management software maker Cognos Inc. at $5 billion. The Netezza deal will be his sixth purchase of more than $1 billion.

I live in both Oakland, CA and Chicago, IL. I run a company called the Mood-factory, and am the founder of a nonprofit called iFred. I am a quiet, non-smoking, non-drinking professional that is often in meetings or on my computer writing.
I travel a TON for work and prefer to stay out of the hotel scene and enjoy the areas I visit. I am active and love to hike. I ski and want to learn to surf.
I'm so very thankful for airbnb - it is a great way to see the world and stay connected to others and the cultures.


text: I do not understand. Both QCOM & Nokia have patented IP on CMDA technology. More QCOM, less Nokia. They have a cross licensing agreement that expires in April. Nokia objects to renewal because QCOM allegedly charges too much. (No indication how much Nokia charges). If no renewal, Nokia cannot use QCOM's IP. So? Remember, QCOM does not make phones. How is Nokia ever to do any business with the various types of CDMA w/o a QCOM license,especially when its competitors have licenses?Can someone set this out in simple terms?

Lessons for REDDplus: A comparative analysis of the German discourse on forest functions and the global ecosystem services debate
This paper compares the historic German discourse on forest functions with the current international debate on ecosystem services and analyzes the factors that may have triggered or inhibited the development and the institutionalization of both underlying concepts and subordinate debates. Ultimately, this comparison aims at drawing conclusions for the present debate on the currently negotiated REDDplus mechanism which can be considered as a major effort to upscale payments for environmental services.

Everyone is trying to host when they join a game and it doesn't start soon enough for them. So please be patient. I'm going to be playing and hosting this game every night for the next 2 months, hoping that it will pick back up. So if you join my game, please hang around. I don't normally use my mic because my wife and kids are asleep in the same room, but I assure you I am there, just waiting for enough people. I don't want to start a game on Recess with just 4 people. If you want to continue to play this, please post here and let me know, so I don't waist the next 2 months of my life.

TULSA, Okla. (AP) - Oral Roberts University will lay off about 100 employees, days after it agreed to a costly separation agreement with its former president who resigned amid a spending scandal.
The layoffs represent roughly 10 percent of the university's work force.
The school, with a budget this fiscal year of about $92 million, is more than $17 million in debt.
The announcement of layoffs came days after Oral Roberts University completed a separation agreement with former president Richard Roberts. The son of the school's namesake-founder stepped down last year amid allegations he misspent school funds to live in luxury.
Under terms of the agreement, ORU will pay Richard Roberts nearly $450,000 in salary for the remaining term of his appointment, which was to run through November 2009.

Cmdfs builds a filtered virtual filesystem based on a source directory tree. You can even integrate other programs to convert data on the fly.
It's a common task: You only want the users to see certain files on a file server, and the computer also needs to change these files dynamically during access. From the large collection of material on the server, perhaps you want the back office staff to see only the office documents and the graphical artists only the graphics.

Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity

GEN is on the scene at the World Stem Cell Summit in San Diego. Here are more highlights from the conference:
"In 5 to 10 years, you will have your genomes as part of your medical records," Leroy Hood, M.D., Ph.D., Institute for Systems Biology, told attendees of the World Stem Cell Summit 2013 today, in San Diego. "Third-generation sequencing will be revolutionary," he said in his plenary keynote "Systems Approaches to Disease and Stem Cells"; using nanopore technology it will enable sequencing of a human genome in about 15 minutes at a cost of less than $100.
In the Systems Medicine concept described by Dr. Hood the genome will be only one part of the "billions of data points that will surround patients in the next 5–10 years." These will derive from existing and emerging technologies including third-generation sequencing, global and targeted mass spectrometry for proteomic analysis, and quantitative single-cell analytical methods. Genomic, epigenomic, miRNAomic, transcriptomic, and metabolomic data will contribute to the characterization of disease-perturbed networks that can serve as the basis for developing models of disease and wellness.
Ultimately, by applying systems medicine to enable very early disease detection and monitor disease progression, the huge amount of data surrounding each individual can be used to maintain them on a track of wellness or transition them from disease back to wellness.
The future "wellness industry" will likely exceed in size the medical industry," predicts Dr. Hood.
For more from the World Stem Cell Summit, be sure to check out "Neural Precursors 'Cure MS' in Mice", "Mary Ann Liebert Wins Stem Cell Education Award", "$1M Award to Develop a Replacement Liver Announced", "Stem Cell Leaders Call for Human Embryome Project", and "World Stem Cell Summit: December 4, 2013 Update".

Release Date:
June 11, 2002
One of the earlier additions to @Putumayo's children's line, Latin Playground alternates between catering to children through music specifically for them and enriching the album with works that happen to be playful but were not necessarily made with children in mind. While this one is a little less adult-friendly than some of the others in the line, it still has enough variety to last for a good series of inevitable replays at the hands of kids. The album runs around the Latin spectrum quite well, taking in Mayan-language music from Lila Downs as easily as Flaco Jimenez's brand of Tejano. American folk with a mild Mexican influence is here, as is some forro from Nazare Pereira. The breadth of styles is quite something, and though the explorations are not particularly deep, that is certainly not a major detraction for a kids' album. Some of the other albums in the @Putumayo kids' line may have a little more depth, but this one isn't bad at all, and can draw from the label's considerable expertise in Latin music at the same time. ~ Adam Greenberg, Rovi

Arizona Cardinals
Report: Cardinals want Mike McCoy in for second interview
With the Denver Broncos eliminated from the playoffs, the battle to hire offensive coordinator Mike McCoy is likely to pick up some steam.
McCoy, who is arguably the hottest name on the market with regards to becoming some team's next head coach, has already interviewed with the Cardinals, Bears and Eagles, and is scheduled to meet with the Charges Monday.
According to FOX NFL insider Jay Glazer, the Cards want to chat with him again Tuesday.
Chargers interviewing Broncos' Mike McCoy today and Cards now want to bring McCoy back in for 2nd interview tomorrow
— Jay Glazer (@JayGlazer) January 14, 2013
Last week ESPN NFL insider John Clayton said McCoy was the "leader in the clubhouse" for the Arizona job, and the fact that they want him for a second interview would lend credibility to that claim.
However, with other teams at least interested in the coach — most of which have better quarterbacks than the Cardinals have to offer — their chances of landing him remain very much up in the air.

After the show, I googled him and realized that he was the director and also appeared in one of my favorite documentary "ON THE BUS". It's a 2001 MTV Road Rules-style reality show / documentary about six gay men traveling to Burning Man on a bus. And yes, Dustin Black was one of the cast and also the director of the show.
And one of those six gay men who traveled along with Black in this documentary is Jason Webb or gay porn star Dean O'Connor! OK OK, I admit it, I first watched this show mainly because I want to see Dean O'Connor. He's cute as a button porn star with big cock and there's some nudity in this show. But On The Bus is much more than that, I found all of the cast is likable and really enjoy watching it.
Dean O'Connor starred in Studio 2000's Getting Straight.
