Space Weather News for Aug. 16, 2009
MONDAY MORNING SKY SHOW: Set your alarm for dawn. On Monday morning, Aug. 17th, Venus and the crescent Moon will gather beautifully close together in the eastern sky. For many observers in North America, the International Space Station (ISS) will make an appearance, too. It's a fantastic way to begin the day.

Space Weather News for August 12, 2009
If it's dark where you live, go outside and look for meteors. Earth is still inside the debris stream of Comet Swift-Tuttle and, as a result, the Perseid meteor shower is still active. Worldwide meteor counts raise the possibility that the show could be better tonight, Aug. 12th, than it was last night, Aug. 11th. Be alert for meteors after sunset.

Space Weather News for August 11, 2009
The Perseid meteor shower is about to peak. The show begins after sunset on Tuesday, August 11th, and continues until the sun rises on Wednesday, August 12th. A time of particular interest is 0800-0900 GMT (1-2 a.m. PDT) on the 12th. That's when Earth is expected to pass through a denser-than-usual filament of dust from Perseid parent Comet Swift-Tuttle. Forecasters are unsure what will happen, but some have speculated that meteor rates could surge as high as 200 per hour. Bright moonlight will blot out many of those Perseids, but even a fraction of 200 is a good show.

Horse Flies and Meteors
August 10, 2009: Splat! There goes another bug on the windshield.
Anyone who's ever driven down a country lane has seen it happen. A fast moving car, a cloud of multiplying insects, and a big disgusting mess.
The next time that happens to you, instead of grossing out, try thinking of the experience as an astronomy lesson. Your car is Earth. The bugs are tiny flakes of comet dust. The carnage on your windshield ... it's a meteor shower!
Earth, like a speeding car, races around the Sun sweeping up everything in its path. There are no insects in space, at least none that we know of, but there are plenty of meteoroids, little flakes of dust from comets and asteroids. They hit Earth's atmosphere and--splat!--they disintegrate as fiery streaks of light called meteors.
This week lots of meteors will appear over Earth's northern hemisphere when our planet plows through a swarm of dust shed by periodic comet Swift-Tuttle. It's the annual Perseid meteor shower, which peaks on August 11th and 12th.
Earth has a windshield? It's the atmosphere, which protects us from solar wind and comet dust much as a car's windshield protects passengers from wind, rain and bugs. Earth's front windshield is the early morning sky. Earth circles the Sun dawn-side first, scooping up whatever lies on that side of the planet. That's why it's usually best to look for Perseids just before dawn.
A good time to see Perseids this year is before dawn on Wednesday morning, August 12th, when Earth's front windshield is overhead. You could see dozens of meteors despite the glare of a 66% gibbous Moon.
Side windows, the ones to the left and right of passengers in cars, are good, too. Zooming down a bug-infested lane, side windows don't intercept many insects, but the ones they do gather are worth examining. Bugs that strike side windows do so at a shallow angle, leaving long and colorful streaks.
This also happens to meteors. When the constellation Perseus (the source of the Perseids) hangs low near the horizon, meteors streaming from Perseus will skim the the top of Earth's atmosphere, much like a bug skimming the side window of an automobile. Astronomers call these meteors "Earthgrazers." They tend to be long and colorful.
Look for Perseid Earthgrazers on Tuesday night, Aug. 11th, between about 9:00 and 11:00 pm local time.
Earthgrazers don't come in large numbers. The special geometry required to produce them keeps counts low, but even one or two is enough. A breathtaking Earthgrazer is the sort of meteor you're likely to remember for years.
Best of all, there's no gooey residue.

Kepler Detects an Exoplanet Atmosphere
August 6, 2009: NASA's new exoplanet-hunting Kepler space telescope has detected the atmosphere of a known giant gas planet, demonstrating the telescope's extraordinary scientific capabilities. The discovery will be published Friday in the journal Science.
"As NASA's first exoplanets mission, Kepler has made a dramatic entrance on the planet-hunting scene," said Jon Morse, director of the Science Mission Directorate's Astrophysics Division at NASA Headquarters in Washington. "Detecting this planet's atmosphere in just the first 10 days of data is only a taste of things to come. The planet hunt is on!"
Launched March 6, 2009, from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida, Kepler will spend the next three-and-a-half years searching for planets as small as Earth, including those that orbit stars in a warm "Goldilocks zone" where there could be water. It will do this by looking for periodic dips in the brightness of stars, which occur when orbiting planets transit, or cross in front of, the stars.
"When the light curves from tens of thousands of stars were shown to the Kepler science team, everyone was awed; no one had ever seen such exquisitely detailed measurements of the light variations of so many different types of stars," said William Borucki, the principal science investigator and lead author of the paper.
The observations were collected from a planet called HAT-P-7, known to transit a star located about 1,000 light years from Earth. The planet orbits the star in just 2.2 days and is 26 times closer than Earth is to the sun. Its orbit, combined with a mass somewhat larger than the planet Jupiter, classifies this planet as a "hot Jupiter." It is so close to its star, the planet is as hot as the glowing red heating element on a kitchen stove.
HAT-P-7 was known before Kepler turned its attention to the planet. Kepler's measurements are so precise, however, they show something new: a smooth rise and fall of the light between transits caused by the changing phases of the planet, similar to the phases of our own Moon. The smooth rise and fall of light is also punctuated by a small drop in light, called an occultation. An occultation happens when a planet passes behind its star.
The new Kepler data can be used to study this hot Jupiter in unprecedented detail. The depth of the occultation and the shape and amplitude of the light curve show the planet has an atmosphere with a day-side temperature of about 4,310 degrees Fahrenheit. Little of this heat is carried to the cool night side. The occultation time compared to the main transit time shows the planet has a circular orbit. The discovery of light from this planet confirms the predictions by researchers and theoretical models that the emission would be detectable by Kepler.
The observed brightness variation is just one and a half times what is expected for a transit caused by an Earth-sized planet. Although this is already the highest precision ever obtained for an observation of this star, Kepler will be even more precise after analysis software being developed for the mission is completed.
"This early result shows the Kepler detection system is performing right on the mark," said David Koch, deputy principal investigator of NASA's Ames Research Center at Moffett Field, Calif. "It bodes well for Kepler's prospects to be able to detect Earth-size planets."
Stay tuned to Science@NASA for more results from Kepler.

POSSIBLE PERSEID METEOR OUTBURST: This year's Perseid meteor shower could be even better than usual. According to NASA's Meteoroid Environment Office, a filament of comet dust has drifted across Earth's path and when Earth passes through it, sometime between 0800 and 0900 UT (1 - 2 am PDT) on August 12th, the Perseid meteor rate could surge to twice its normal value.

August 3, 2009: It began with a furrowed brow, a moment of puzzlement, quickly dismissed.
The date was July 19, 2009. Amateur astronomer Anthony Wesley was photographing Jupiter from his backyard observatory in Murrumbateman, Australia, when something odd caught his eye.
"My attention was fixed on the Great Red Spot, which was setting beautifully over Jupiter's horizon," recalls Wesley. "I almost didn't notice the dark blemish near Jupiter's south pole, and when I did, I put it out of my mind."
It's just another dark storm on Jupiter.
"That's what I thought at first, but something about the dark mark puzzled me, it didn't look right, and I couldn't stop stealing glances at it."
Slowly, Jupiter's rotation turned the blemish toward Earth, Wesley got a better look at it, and the truth struck him like a thunderbolt.
It was an impact mark. Something hit the giant planet!
"I had seen the scars caused by fragments of Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 hitting Jupiter in 1994, so I knew what an impact looked like," he says. "After I'd convinced myself that this was real, I could hardly use the computer. My hands were shaking. It was quite unbelievable."
He quickly emailed his photos to friends and colleagues around the world, and within hours telescopes great and small were turning toward Jupiter to photograph the aftermath of a powerful collision.
"We believe it was a comet or asteroid measuring perhaps a few hundred meters wide," says Don Yeomans of NASA's Near-Earth Object Office at JPL. "If something of similar size hit Earth—we're talking about 2000 megatons of energy--there would be serious regional devastation or a tsunami if it hit the ocean."
In a stroke of luck almost as big as Wesley's, JPL astronomers Glenn Orton and Leigh Fletcher were already scheduled to observe Jupiter on July 20th, barely a day after impact, using NASA's Infra-red Telescope Facility (IRTF) atop Mauna Kea in Hawaii. The 3-meter telescope revealed a fresh cloud of debris about the size of Mars floating among Jupiter's clouds.
"The object, whatever it was, exploded in Jupiter's upper atmosphere," says Orton. "It blew itself to smithereens. What we're seeing now are bits and pieces of the impactor and possibly some strange aerosols formed by shock-chemistry during the impact."
On July 23rd, the Hubble Space Telescope took its first pictures of the blast site. Hubble was still undergoing checkout and calibration following the STS-125 servicing mission in May, but this event was too big to skip. Space Telescope Science Institute director Matt Mountain allocated emergency telescope time to a team of astronomers led by Heidi Hammel of the Space Science Institute in Boulder, Colorado.
As usual, Hubble photos stole the show. They revealed a swirling maelstrom of dark cindery debris jostling with natural storms near the top of Jupiter's atmosphere:
"The debris cloud is lumpy because of atmospheric turbulence," explains planetary scientist Amy Simon-Miller of the Goddard Space Flight Center. "Polar winds blowing 25 m/s (~55 mph) are causing it to spread out and grow larger. This will make the cloud even easier to see through backyard telescopes."
Judging from the behavior of the Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 impacts fifteen years ago, she estimates that the 'Wesley debris cloud' could remain visible for many weeks to come. Researchers will put the time to good use. Further studies of the cloud might yet reveal the great unknown:
What hit Jupiter?
"We just don't know," says Yeomans. "No one saw the object prior to impact."
Indeed, there was no warning. The object emerged from darkness, unknown and uncatalogued, and—wham!—before anyone could photograph the body intact, it had become a cloud of debris. (There is a lesson here for Earth, but that is another story.)
The cloud's chemical composition holds clues to the nature of the impactor. Orton says ground-based observers are now analyzing light reflected from the cloud to figure out what it is made of. "If the spectra contain signs of water, that would suggest an icy comet. Otherwise, it's probably a rocky or metallic asteroid."
Meanwhile, it's a big dark mystery—the kind that Wesley can't take his eyes off of. "I am still observing Jupiter almost every night using my 14.5 inch telescope," he says. "The cloud is expanding and taking on some interesting shapes."
"I wonder," he says, "what will happen next?"

Medzerian: With Dad, there were always stories and laughs
For months, I've cringed each time the phone indicated the incoming caller was my sister.
Not that I have anything against my sister: April's a lovely woman, and we get along great.
I just didn't want to get The Call.
My dad, 92 years old on his birthday four weeks ago, was in failing health since summer. At a Pennsylvania retirement community a short drive from my sister, Dad went from independent living to assisted living to skilled care — the "nursing home" — in just a few days.
Sometime around Thanksgiving, April said she didn't think he'd make it to Christmas, so I made a visit in December. My brothers, George and Paul, also made trips from Florida and Maryland.
Dad proved her wrong — but when he asked if I'd be visiting before Easter, I headed back once more.
During that February trip, he was as sharp as ever, his spirits were good and his health was no worse than during my previous visit.
But two weeks ago tonight, April called with the news we'd all been dreading.
• • •
My dad's last day sounds like a dream.
April and her husband spent the afternoon visiting. They took Dad to lunch where he used to live and ran into some of his old friends. Stories and laughs were shared — there were always stories and laughs.
Back at Dad's room (after weeks of waiting, he had finally scored a private room), a few things were hung on the wall. April set a feeder outside so Dad could watch the birds.
She said goodbye and Dad laid down for a nap, and that was that.
• • •
My parents were both independent thinkers and raised their children to be the same.
Mom was a lifelong Democrat, Dad a lifelong Republican – yet, more often than not, it seemed each backed the other party's candidate.
Mom was a devout Catholic; Dad was a dedicated Methodist who had no desire to convert. In those days, to get married in the church – and for Mom there would be no other way – they needed to get permission from the bishop and promise to raise their kids as Catholics. They did both.
Many Sundays, Dad went to church twice: once to Catholic Mass with Mom and the kids and again to the Methodist service, usually by himself.
After Mom passed away in 2006, Dad continued to go to Mass (that's better than many Catholics). He said it made him feel close to her.
• • •
They're together now. We left him with her on Saturday, a rainy Pennsylvania afternoon, in a Catholic cemetery after a service led by a Methodist minister.
Dad specified there should be "no sadness or tears," and we generally obliged.
But there were stories and laughs; the minister said it was the happiest funeral he had ever attended.
There will always be stories and laughs.
And that, in itself, is a comfort.

Myocardial infarction resulting from ischemic injury is a prominent and common feature of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Cardiac myosin binding protein-C (cMyBP-C) is, by its degradation during proteolysis, an important determinant of myocardial contractile pathogenesis during I-R injury. Briefly, cMyBP-C is a thick filament-associated protein that stabilizes myosin, an important component of the contractile machinery, to regulate sarcomeric structure and function in the heart. Mutations in the cMyBP-C gene account for ~34% of all cardiomyopathy cases, 70% of which are predicted to produce unstable truncated proteins. During I-R injury, we demonstrated that extensive fragmentation of cMyBP-C correlates with altered sarcomeric structure and contractile dysfunction. Therefore, while the short-term goal is to elucidate the proteolytic and pathogenic properties of cMyBP-C in the clinical context of cardioprotection during ischemia-reperfusion (I-R) injury, the long-term goal is to determine the mechanisms by which cMyBP-C stabilizes sarcomeric structure and function in order to confer cardioprotection during I-R injury. More specifically, our preliminary studies show that calpains degrade cMyBP-C into several fragments and that the 29-kDa fragment is the predominant fragment in vitro. Such proteolysis leads to the release of the 29-kDa fragment into the blood stream during I-R injury in mice. Moreover, mass spectrometry analyses confirm that the release of the 29-kDa fragment is associated with the calpain-targeted site (CTS), which is a conserved phosphorylation motif that possibly regulates its cleavage. From a therapeutic perspective, these findings indicate that the ablation of the CTS could result in resistance to calpain-mediated proteolysis, thus abrogating release of the 29-kDa fragment. Therefore, we propose that inhibition of CTS cleavage would secure the structural integrity of cMyBP-C, thus preserving contractile structure and function. However, the clinical and pathogenic significance of cMyBP-C degradation, as well as the properties of its proteolysis, have not been determined and therefore represent a clinically important area of translational research. The goal, therefore, is to determine the correlation between the release of the 29- kDa fragment in the blood and contractile dysfunction, demonstrate its toxic effects in cardiomyocytes and examine how the inhibition of CTS cleavage in cMyBP-C protects the heart from I-R injury. Overall, the proposed research aims to define the stability and function of cMyBP-C in the context of supportive therapy during I-R injury, in general, and heart muscle contractility, specifically. To achieve our goals, Specific Aim 1 will determine the levels of 29-kDa fragment in the blood, according to infarct size and contractile function during I-R injury.
Specific Aim 2 will determine the pathogenic properties of the 29-kDa fragment in the context of myosin function.
Specific Aim 3 will determine whether site-specific inhibition of the CTS, as defined above, can preserve cMyBP-C stability and function during I-R injury and thus confer cardioprotection. Importantly, once the kinetics of the 29-kDa fragment have validated that this peptide is quantifiable in the serum of wild-type non-transgenic mice with induced I-R injury, we can confirm its potential as a clinically useful readout of post-ischemic myocardial infarction. Our experimental approach is comprehensive, ranging from the analysis of molecular interactions to functional assessments of sarcomeric arrangement and function, both in vitro and in vivo. I-R injury will be induced in wild-type non-transgenic mice to define the sequential release of the 29-kDa fragment and its blood serum levels in relation to infarct size, calpain activities, and myocardial function, compared with controls. Adult mouse cardiomyocytes have been chosen as the model system to investigate the pathogenic properties of the 29-kDa fragment by using recombinant adenoviruses and peptides. To determine the association between the CTS in cMyBP-C and cardioprotection, we will use transgenic mice expressing cMyBP-C in which the CTS has been ablated and bred into the cMyBP-C null background, compared with transgenic mice expressing phospho-mimetic and wild-type cMyBP-C controls. Endpoint measurements include the amount of the 29-kDa fragment in the blood correlated with infarct area and cardiac function, calpain activity, cMyBP-C phosphorylation levels, intracellular Ca2+ transients, Mg2+-ATPase activity, myofilament Ca2+ sensitivity, molecular binding studies, sarcomere structure and function.
The long-term objective is to understand the functional consequences of cardiac myosin binding protein-C protein on heart function. Specifically, the proposed studies will examine the association between cardiac myosin binding protein-C degradation and cardiac dysfunction, leading to the development of potential cardioprotective therapeutic approaches by site-specific protein modification.

Hardly anyone is paid for their creative attempts on youtube because they are hobbyists with jobs or parents.
Copyright supporters are not attacking youtube, they are being attacked for trying to assist artists.If you don't believe me google CAL and learn about the good work they do. Work that may soon be diminished and mean that monies collected to assist authors, painters, writers etc. (who earn below the poverty line already) will not be collected.
I have nothing against a rethink of copyright provided it means the rethink genuinely places more funds in the pockets of artists. To date, no-one has come up with a plan for that to happen when copyright goes or is slashed (thanks to rich lawyers).
And that's because the recipient of the creative act - the public - is now reluctant to pay for it.
Copyright, far from being the bogey man in this argument, is David fighting Goliath.
PS - there is much good music now, but not nearly as much as there would be if more funds were available to musicians. This is elementary. Unless you believe that poverty is somehow a virtuous pre-requisite for talent.

You might let the Grace Crafting table people know that the instructions they included for assembly are not even close to the reality. For example, they describe using 4 "short" supports and 2 "long" supports for the shelves but there were 6 short supports. They say they have supplied 2 different length screws; there was only one type of long screw and finally, the wrench supplied did not fit all the nuts. Luckily I have a full tool box and found the assembly easy and the table great for the purpose I bought it for.
Edward Z, Odenton MD
The packaging was the most professional work ever seen. It withstood many crushed areas for being manhandled on its way from Colorado to Maryland on on the outer layer of the two boxes but had no damage inside. Very, very well protected and it is very much appreciated. The unit was assembled without any issues and it is built like a rock that will last forever. Thank you so much for selling and delivering high quality products at a reasonable price.
Judy, Overland Park, KS
Very sturdy cutting table at a great price. Shipped and arrived as estimated by Allbrands. Easy to put together. Tools needed included except for the one wrench needed to adjust table height (which is what most will do). Two sturdy legs under each leaf makes this table wobble free. It does not bow down in one corner as so many of the cutting tables do when they have just one leg for support. Absolutely no wobble with the table at all, as steady as a rock. Highly recommend table, highly recommend to purchase from allbrands.
Karen, Vermont
I always have an excellent experience with All Brands.

Lotus Concepts to expand club empire with lease for old Ruth's Chris Steakhouse space
Francois Safieddine has done well with clubs like Suite Two Hundred, 24K, Oak Tavern and 5 Degrees, and he'll soon be expanding his club empire. Safieddine recently signed a multi-million dollar lease for the old Ruth's Chris Steakhouse space at 1445 Market Street in a building owned by the Denver Metro Chamber of Commerce. Safieddine may turn the space into a bar and restaurant.
Ruth's Chris went dark in May 2009.
In September, Safieddine also bought the Nisei lodge at 2015 Market Street from Nisei Veterans Heritage Foundation for a reported $900,000. Paulina Szafranski, Lotus Concepts vice president of marketing, says in early 2011, Lotus plans to move its offices into the second floor of the building, which once housed the Japanese restaurant Mori for decades but suddenly closed two years ago. As far as a concept goes, Szafranski says Safieddine is submitting construction plans to the city, but they don't currently have a name for the new venue or a complete concept to release to the public yet.
A few months ago, Safieddine's Lotus Concepts Properties bought for $1,525,000 the Zeppelin-owned building at 1414 Market Street, which is home to Oak Tavern and 24k .

Take Action / Resources / Topics / GE Fish / Biotech Gets Fishy with GE Salmon
Biotech Gets Fishy with GE Salmon
An abbreviated version of this article was published in Common Ground Magazine, October 2010. Lucy Sharratt is the coordinator of the Canadian Biotechnology Action Network.
Some say genetic engineering was always fishy, but now the fish themselves are engineered.
For 15 years genetically engineered (GE, also called genetically modified or GM) canola, corn, and soy ingredients (and recently, some GE sugar) proliferated in processed foods in North America. (www.cban.ca/gefoods) Now salmon is the next genetically engineered food that threatens to be introduced to market.
AquaBounty, a Massachusetts-based biotechnology company, is asking the US to approve its genetically engineered Atlantic salmon for human consumption, and says it will ask for approval soon in Canada as well. The company claims its "AquAdvantage" salmon grow to market-size twice as fast as other farmed salmon. That's because the Atlantic salmon are engineered with a growth hormone gene from Chinook salmon, and genetic material from ocean pout (an eel-like creature). The fish produce growth hormone throughout the year, rather than just for 3 months as they would normally.
Fish Ahoy!?
After ten years of consideration, the US government is about to approve the GE salmon. Or are they? On August 25, the U.S Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced the final stages of its process to approve the GE salmon. The FDA called on their Veterinary Medicine Advisory Committee (VMAC) to discuss the science submitted by AquaBounty, and to hear from public interest groups, in two days of public meetings in September.
Just two weeks before the meetings, the FDA released two documents that summarize the data presented by AquaBounty, and the FDA's analysis of that science. The FDA's preliminary conclusion was the GE salmon is safe to eat and does not pose a risk to the environment. However, many Committee members at the public meetings voiced serious concerns about the quality of the data, asking for more and better studies. The FDA did not ask the VMAC for an overall recommendation but is now left to consider the fact that questions were raised and virtually no one answered yes to the question "Do the data and information demonstrate a reasonable certainty of no harm from consumption of foods derived from AquAdvantage salmon?"
AquaBounty now says it is preparing to ask for approval in Canada. As it turns out, the company's entire plan to introduce GE salmon fillets into the US relies on producing GE salmon eggs at its facilities on Prince Edward Island (PEI).
Local Food?
Until now, only the FDA and AquaBounty knew that Canada is actually the key to AquaBounty's plan to introduce GE salmon. On September 3, the FDA released a redacted copy of the environmental assessment conducted by consultants for AquaBounty, revealing the company was not actually asking for approval to grow the fish in the US. Instead, they are planning to produce all the GE salmon eggs on PEI, ship the eggs to Panama for growing out and processing, and then sell "table-ready" GE salmon into the US consumer market. AquaBounty is clear its environmental assessment "is limited to specific facilities for the production of eyed-eggs on PEI and grow-out to market size in Panama."
But while the FDA is busy assessing the PEI-Panama production plan, AquaBounty is selling a completely different story to the American public. Even recently, including at the VMAC hearings, AquaBounty's CEO Ron Stotish restated the company's vision for raising fish closer to mainland consuming populations in the US. FDA official Larissa Rudenko had to intervene and remind the committee that the application before them only relates to production in Canada and Panama. Stotish's comments give credence to warnings from US groups that the company does not intend to stick to its original production plan, but will expand and shift its production of GE fish to other countries and conditions as soon as it can.
Environment Canada On the Hook
AquaBounty does not yet have permission from Environment Canada to commercially produce GE fish eggs at its PEI facility although its entire plan currently rests on this approval. If the FDA allows the GE salmon it will be doing so based on an assumption by AquaBounty that the company will get this permission in Canada.
Environment Canada is required to assess any request from AquaBounty within 120 days. The process is fast and involves no public participation or public hearings. In fact, the public would not even know that AquaBounty had requested this permission until Environment Canada published its final decision.
Environment Canada is new to the controversy over genetic engineering, having been denied the responsibility to regulate genetically engineered crops. Assessing the environmental risks of releasing GE plants was instead mandated to Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada via the Canadian Food Inspection Agency, with its dual mandate to promote trade as well as regulate for food safety. In the case of GE fish, the Department of Fisheries and Oceans said, for 12 years, that it was developing specific regulations, but eventually abandoned these efforts. Regulatory responsibility (for GE fish and other GE animals) therefore defaulted to Environment Canada under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act (CEPA), the "safety net" that catches those products that do not have a regulatory home.
The FDA is regulating GE fish as an "animal drug" and if it approves the salmon, as VMAC member James D. McKean concluded, "the Prince Edward Island facility should be viewed as a drug manufacturing facility." AquaBounty's current activities on PEI however have not triggered an environmental assessment in Canada due to a CEPA regulatory exemption for research and development.
GE Fish Gone Wild
Conserving wild Atlantic salmon is a serious matter as populations dropped in Canada from about 18 million in 1975 to only 625,000 in 2008. Commercial fisheries for wild Atlantic salmon were closed in 1985 with only recreational, Labrador resident and First Nations fisheries remaining. In 2009, all populations of wild Atlantic salmon were listed in Canada as a "High Priority Candidate" in danger of disappearing, with Lake Ontario populations listed as "Extirpated" and Inner Bay of Fundy populations as "Endangered". The escape of GE Atlantic salmon from fish farms on the East Coast could therefore be a disaster for the species.
Atlantic salmon are also intensively farmed in net-pens in the Pacific Ocean, primarily in Chile and along the West Coast of Canada and the US, and the escape of Atlantic salmon from either pens or hatcheries is a serious problem resulting in reoccurring environmental pollution that can threaten native species. For example, mature escaped Atlantic salmon have been recorded in freshwater streams in British Columbia and there is evidence of successful spawning in a few locations. To try and avoid the question of escape risk for their GE fish, AquaBounty is seeking permission to grow-out the fish in a land-based facility in a "remote highland area" of Panama. The company says the facility is accessible only by a securely gated footbridge, has an entrance with locked gates, and is "protected by dogs."
The other primary containment strategy being relied on is the company's plan to only produce female fish that are triploid, meaning they will not be able to reproduce. AquaBounty concedes that up to 5% of the salmon could still be fertile at any given time but concludes that, "the production, grow-out, and disposal of AquAdvantage Salmon under the conditions described in this Environmental Assessment are highly unlikely to cause any significant effects on the environment". This includes their plan for shipping the GE fish eggs from PEI to Panama using a "rugged" Styrofoam egg crate packed in a hard-plastic "Igloo" cooler bound with packing straps and further secured in a heavy-cardboard shipping container.
The FDA has announced that it will conduct a new environmental assessment that will include a 30-day pubic comment period. Ultimately, the FDA may conclude that the environmental risks are insignificant for the purposes of approval, but given the numerous and very serious critiques of AquaBounty's science on health questions, the FDA will not easily get away with approving the GE salmon for human consumption.
Risky Fish Fingers
Ten years may seem like a long time to study a product and review its safety, but that is only if those ten years were well spent. Dr. Michael Hansen, Senior Scientist at Consumers Union in the US, testified before the Veterinary Medicine Advisory Committee on September 20, saying, "The data are too superficial and of insufficient scientific quality to warrant approval." Having examined the summary of AquaBounty's science, he says, "The FDA is relying on woefully inadequate data. There is sloppy science, small sample sizes, and questionable practices."
Critics have long warned that the process of genetic engineering itself could result in the increased allergenicity of foods and AquaBounty's own data appear to confirm this potential. More data are clearly needed. Data from testing two small samples show that there could be a risk of increased allergy potential. The problem of small sample sizes and questionable design characterizes AquaBounty's study on this health question. As VMAC member Robert H. Poppenga of the Animal Health and Food Safety Lab at the School of Veterinary Medicine, University of California, told the FDA meeting, "I can't interpret the allergenicity data that's there." The company maintains however that its GE fish are "substantially equivalent to farmed salmon."
Among other specific problems, the two studies to look at potential risks from elevated growth hormone levels were deficient. The first of these examined fish that weighed just 2 ounces, instead of market-sized fish. The second study used market-sized fish, but the sensitivity test method was so high that it did not detect growth hormone in any of the GE or non-GE sample fish. The company similarly used insensitive tests to look for levels of IGF-1, a hormone linked to a number of cancers. This means that the FDA currently has no real data to make conclusions on these safety questions.
The aquaculture industry in Canada and internationally says there is no market demand for the GE salmon and, as Ruth Salmon, Executive Director of the Canadian Aquaculture Industry Alliance told CBC, "The Canadian aquaculture industry does not support the commercial production of transgenic fish for human consumption." The aquaculture industry is right to be afraid of the GE fish. Not only is approval of GE salmon likely to scare consumers off farmed salmon, but the media attention may also highlight the existing criticisms of factory fish farming. Through this debate, for example, consumers may discover that farmed salmon are nutritionally inferior to wild Atlantic salmon, being substantially lower in beneficial omega-3 fatty acids. According to AquaBounty's data the GE salmon have an even lower ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 fatty acids than other farmed salmon.
Fishy Canadian Research
Just like the GE "Enviropig" that came from the University of Guelph, this GE salmon is the product of publicly funded university research in Canada. Dr. Garth Fletcher from Memorial University of Newfoundland (MUN) and Dr. Choy Hew of the University of Toronto patented their gene construct for transgenic fish in 2001. As recently as January 2010, the federal government granted public funds to AquaBounty for research that can be applied to their GE salmon. The company was given $2.9 million from the Atlantic Innovation Fund to "improve the culture of reproductively sterile Atlantic salmon" with the objective of "the safe commercial launch of triploid salmon with Atlantic Canada identified as the source for associated commercial benefits, and worldwide distribution of the product."
The Future is Now – or Never
AquaBounty's transgenic salmon is in competition with the University of Guelph's "Enviropig" to become the first GE animal introduced into our food system. "As the FDA considers its first genetically engineered food animal, we're hopeful that this process will pave the way for future technologies currently in the pipeline," said Jim Greenwood, President and CEO of the Biotechnology Industry Organization in a September 20 press release, "Other new technologies in development include GE cattle, goats, pigs and fish that can advance human health, mitigate environmental impact, optimize animal welfare, improve state-of-the-art industrial products and provide sustainable food sources in agriculture and aquaculture," Greenwood stated.
AquaBounty's controversial fish and the FDA's release of its shoddy data have, however, made the biotech industry more vulnerable than ever. Mark Walton, President of Viagen, "The Cloning Company", and Chair of the Biotechnology Industry Organization's Animal Policy Committee, told the recent Agricultural Biotechnology Industry Conference in Saskatoon that FDA staff themselves were concerned that AquaBounty would not have enough allies in the room at the September FDA hearings. They were right.

What is Compartment Syndrome?
Compartment syndrome is a type of condition that occurs when pressure builds up inside a muscle tissue in the body. Compartment syndrome usually occurs due to swelling or internal bleeding after an injury. The swelling should go away once the wound heals. However in some cases, if the swelling doesn't improve quickly, it leads to the accumulation of pressure. Let us have a look at the symptoms and the causes in depth.
Understanding Compartment Syndrome:
Compartment syndrome is not exactly a disease, but it hampers the flow of blood to and from the affected tissues. Groups of organs/muscles are organized into zones called compartments. During an injury, blood may start accumulating in these compartments, as a result of which the pressure inside the chamber rises restricting smooth blood flows. Severe tissue damage can result, with a loss of body function as well. Compartment syndrome can be fatal in some cases if not treated immediately. The common areas where this occurs are the legs, arms, and abdomen.
Compartment Syndrome Causes:
Compartment syndrome can occur immediately after an injury or they can happen when the treatment plan for the injury is under way. The biggest risk is that while some compartment syndrome takes days to form, few cases occur within hours. The acute form of the condition occurs when there is damage to the bone like a fracture to the hand and limbs. Other causes can include crush injuries, over-tight bandaging, burns and prolonged compression of an arm or leg. Blood clots also cause this condition in some cases, and so does strenuous physical exercises. A simple physical exam is used to diagnose compartment syndrome along with an X-Ray.
Compartment Syndrome Treatment:
Treatment for compartment syndrome works on the fundamental principle of reducing the pressure to the affected region. Dressings and casts that hamper the blood flow have to be removed immediately. Movement and bodily functions of the affected area have to be monitored vigorously. Surgery is one of the foolproof ways to ease the pressure. It is done by making long incisions into the skin underneath the affected area and releasing the pressure. The surgeries are done as minimally invasive procedures and can be clubbed together with the treatment plan the person is undergoing. In some cases, if the pressure is weak and not restricting the flow, then physical therapies can be undertaken. Medications can also help to an extent along with strength exercises.
With the advances made in medical science, doctors can identify potential compartment syndrome symptoms more quickly. Since these mostly occur when undergoing the treatment, the condition has a better chance of getting identified at its root. They can be avoided mostly with the experience of the physician.

Lower back pain can be one of the most physically debilitating things that can affect you and limit your mobility. Even if the pain isn't that acute, it could still signal something deteriorating in your lower back. While oral medications, topical creams or sprays can help in reducing pain, there are other effective remedies you can try on your own. These will be handy when you have no medications at hand. One of these is the hot and cold therapy.
Heat therapy for lower back pain
Heat works well with lower back pain as it can dilate blood vessels and improve circulation within the tissue. This will help in circulation and also result in lowering the pain. Heat therapy will also loosen up other muscles in the area and help soothe sore areas which have been taking the burden along with the lower back muscles. Some of the techniques that can be applied are:
1. All day heat wraps: These are specially manufactured belts or wraps which wrap around your abdomen and keep tightness and pressure on your lower back as well as supplying heat.
2. Electric heating pads: These are mechanized heating pads which generate heat with electricity. You can place them under you back and then either sit or sleep with it positioned behind you. However, ensure that you don't keep these for too long as they could burn your skin.
3. Hot compress with towels or hot water bags: Use a clean towel and heat it over a conductive surface and apply it on your lower back. You can also use hot water bags for the same purpose.
Cold therapy for lower back pain
Cold therapy uses the principle of constriction of blood vessels as well as slowing circulation. This will help numb the area and thus help relieve the pain. Some of the ways these can be administered are mentioned below.
1. Ice towel: In this method, soak a towel in ice cold water, wring it to dry it and then apply on your lower back. This will numb the pain without transferring the sting of the cold or damaging your skin.
2. Ice packs: Put about half a kg of ice in a plastic Ziploc bag and pour water over the ice to just about cover it. Push out the air out of the bag and then lock it. Use this ice pack with a towel to ensure that you back doesn't get wet.
3. Ice gel packs: These are ready made packs, which can be bought from medical stores and kept frozen to be used whenever you need it in order to relieve lower back pain.

Nashville, Tenn. - The UConn Huskies are headed to the national championship, but jeez, did they ever make it hard on themselves for a long spell.
Breanna Stewart scored a game-high 18 points as UConn shook off a tepid first half to beat Stanford on Sunday night, 75-56, in the national semifinals before 17,548 at the Bridgestone Arena.
And so (most of) women's basketball has gotten the grudge match it so dearly wanted - UConn vs. Notre Dame in Tuesday's national championship game (ESPN, 8:30 p.m.).
It's unbeaten vs. unbeaten (the first in women's basketball history). Ellen Ripley vs. Katniss Everdeen. Athena vs. Hera.
"I think both teams respect how hard each other has worked all year," UConn's Stefanie Dolson said. "But I can't say they're our favorite."
The Huskies (39-0) missed 15 of their first 20 shots. Believe it or not, they trailed, 22-16, with over five minutes left in the first half.
But UConn closed that half strong, going on a 12-0 run, and never trailed again.
All five starters scored in double figures for the Huskies. Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis, who missed all four of her first-half shots finished with 15 points.
"We were a little scattered," Mosqueda-Lewis said. "We weren't really sure where we wanted to get our shots from. We weren't really attacking them as much as we wanted to in the beginning. It was kind of tough for us to get the shots we wanted.
"Luckily for us, defensively, we were playing great."
Bria Hartley had 13 points, five rebounds for four assists for the Huskies, Stefanie Dolson added 10 points and seven rebounds and Moriah Jefferson scored 10.
Amber Orrange scored a team-high 16 points for the Cardinal (33-4).
Senior Chiney Ogwumike finished her outstanding career with 15 points and 10 rebounds and is expected to be the top pick in next Monday's WNBA Draft at Mohegan Sun Arena. The Connecticut Sun own the rights to the first pick.
The Huskies started fast and opened with four straight points with baskets by Hartley and Jefferson less than a minute into the game.
What followed was a numbing shooting malaise by UConn. It missed 12 of its next 15 shots and had Auriemma seething on the sidelines.
It trailed, 22-16, with over five minutes left in the first half.
But the Huskies finally came to, starting with Kiah Stokes making the first of two free throws. She followed with a steal that Bria Hartley turned into a 3-pointer, shaving the deficit to 22-20.
Stefanie Dolson tied the game with a jumper and Stewart gave UConn the lead the lead with a forward hook.
Stokes kept the Huskies' run going with a layup, and Stewart turned a steal into a layup to put UConn ahead, 28-22, with 1:58 left in the first half.
The run took just a little over three minutes.
"We looked to get it in the lane more," Mosqueda-Lewis said. "We looked to kind of get more movement and try to find some continuity."
UConn continued to pull ahead in the second half as Mosqueda-Lewis heated up. She scored nine during a 14-0 run. She culminated the sprint with a 3-pointer to give the Huskies a 44-27 lead with over 14 minutes left.
Stanford tried to creep back and closed to within 11.
Mosqueda-Lewis answered with a contested jumper, Stokes added a jumper and Stewart two free throws to push UConn back ahead, 55-38, with over nine minutes left.

|Re: pagesize for a given table
|Tue, 02 Feb 2010 13:25:42 GMT
Following up on my pagesize question.... At what point does derby decide on the pagesize when it is creating a table? I have a table with several varchar(4000) fields in it. Though they are varchar, does derby calculate row size based on the maximum possible column size for variable sized columns in deciding whether to bump up the pagesize to 32K? I am trying to track down an insert performance problem, and I'm wondering if the extra large pagesize is causing a problem. The maximum row size for this table is around 5K, but in practice I'm pretty sure it is a small fraction of that. Thanks. - DAP On Feb 1, 2010, at 5:26 PM, Knut Anders Hatlen wrote: > David Parker <firstname.lastname@example.com> writes: > >> I am trying to address some insert performance issues we are having >> for a wide table by increasing the pagesize for that table.

President Richard Nixon famously said "we are all Keynesians now." Well, that was then and this is now. Nobody in the Republican party will publicly call for anything remotely looking like a Keynesian style stimulus plan. Yet there are many closet Keynesians in the Republican Party. Few in Congress would actually vote for a plan that balances the budget in the next two or three years. That would require big cuts in Defense spending and the Republican position is to hold the line on cutting Defense. The reason is they know the economy is too weak to stand such a shock and that massive deficit spending of $1 trillion per year is needed just to keep unemployment in the 8-10% range. On the Democrat side of the aisle no one in a leadership position is calling for another Keynesian-style stimulus plan. In fact, President Obama is noticeably silent on the issue. Additionally, the vast majority of talking heads in the media with the seemingly singular exception of Paul Krugman call for some form of a Grand Bargain to reign in deficit spending. For most of the post-World War II era both Republican and Democratic Presidential Administrations practiced Keynesian economics. Yet when the country has finally fallen into a depression open advocacy for Keynesian economics has been tossed aside. The current depression will not end for years until those closet Keynesians come out into the open and admit the obvious. It had been accepted as common wisdom for years in the U.S. that World War II spending ended the Great Depression, so why is everyone in denial of the obvious?
Because of this wink wink denial the U.S. is getting very inefficient deficit spending. It would be better to confront the issues holding back economic recovery and spend the money necessary to end the depression. For example, troubled mortgages are still causing a significant drag on economic growth. Even though we have record low mortgage rates under 4% over half of the people with mortgages cannot qualify to refinance due to job losses, poor credit, or homes that cannot appraise for a price high enough to qualify for a refi. Congress could require the banks to lower the interest rates for those that cannot qualify due to income or credit problems in exchange for the cash necessary to write down mortgages that are underwater. Lowering the interest rates on these mortgages would create a big boost in disposable income for consumers. It would also have the benefit of improving the quality of bank balance sheets, ending the lending drought. Finally, it would end the foreclosure crisis allowing the housing market to begin a recovery leading to a surge in home starts.
But this requires an open acknowledgement that Keynesian economics is the way out because it would require additional upfront deficit spending. Instead we get inefficient deficit spending that fails to solve any of the problems. Ironically most of the troubled mortgages are already guaranteed in one way or another by the federal government. We fund the losses of Fannie Mae (OTCQB:FNMA) and Freddie Mac (OTCQB:FMCC) on an ongoing basis rather than take the write-off upfront. We have 25 million extra people on food stamps, Medicaid, and other forms of assistance that used to be working, creating a perpetual underclass that does not pay income taxes. Despite the hand wringing in the end the Congress is not going to vote to throw those people off the dole or make large cuts to Defense spending. In the long run we are spending a lot more money treating the symptoms than it would take to actually pay for a cure. The only sensible way to actually lower the deficit and eventually balance the budget is to acknowledge the root problems, address them upfront, and get those 25 million people back to work. By denying the obvious we will be perpetually stuck with the worst of both worlds; unemployment and large deficits.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.
