The Leadership and Administrative Core (LAC) is responsible for strategic planning, organization, administrative operations and evaluation of the OAIC Research and Training program. A special effort is devoted to ensure the cohesion ofthe Center and maintaining an interdisciplinary and translational research focus on the common research theme, which is "sarcopenia and prevention of disability". The key LAC tasks are achieved by the Core Leader and three committees: the Executive Committee, the Independent Review Advisory Panel and the External Advisory Committee. The specific functions ofthe Leadership Core are: - To provide overall scientific leadership and direction for the OAIC research and training program. - To render administrative and budgetary support for the program - To coordinate the functions of the OAIC cores and projects in order to facilitate communication and foster translation behween basic and clinical research and ensure access of investigators to core resources - To assure the coordination of OAIC resources and functions with other research and training grants and institutional resources - To communicate with other OAlCs and the NIA, and to foster collaborations with other OAlCs - To facilitate compliance with guidelines and regulations regarding fiscal policy, human subjects, and animal care and use - To set productivity benchmarks and monitor progress of individual projects and progress of Junior Scholars (this aim is shared with the RCDC), and deal with inadequate progress - To promote quality, productivity and efficiency (timeliness) in all OAIC activities - To arrange the annual meeting of the OAIC External Advisory Committee - To maintain the OAIC web-based tracking and monitoring system to facilitate communication - To promote the use of uniform assessment batteries in OAIC supported clinical research studies to optimize the use of OAIC resources - To maintain the OAIC website and publish the OAIC newsletter Taken together, the LAC provides support for planning, organizational, evaluation, and administrative activities relating to the other Cores and to the OAIC as a whole. The LAC is responsible for monitoring, stimulating, sustaining, evaluating, and reporting progress toward the overall goals ofthe OAIC.
Better knowledge of the etiologic factors leading to sarcopenia and disability, and developing efficacious and effective interventions to avert disability will have a major impact on practicing evidence based geriatric medicine and public health.

In their first confrontation with Mario Lemieux since he came out of retirement in December, the Devils will be without at least one of their top defensemen. Scott Niedermayer underwent arthroscopic surgery on his right knee in New Jersey today and was put on injured reserve.
The status of Brian Rafalski, a key defenseman who has a bruised left shoulder, is questionable for the Devils' game against the Penguins on Saturday afternoon. He was examined by the Devils' doctors in New Jersey today and was on his way to Pittsburgh to join the team.
Both players were injured late in the first period of the Devils' 4-4 tie in Ottawa on Thursday night and never returned to action. Niedermayer aggravated the injured right knee that almost kept him out of the All-Star Game on Sunday in Denver; Rafalski's injury is apparently less serious.
''My shoulder is no major thing,'' Rafalski said after the game, ''but I'm going home to Jersey to have the doctors look at it.''
Niedermayer had indicated after the game that arthroscopic surgery on his knee was an option, and his prediction proved correct.
Their departure after the first period left the Devils with four defensemen, who played a great deal in the overtime period. Scott Stevens, 36, led all players in ice time with almost 36 minutes, and Ken Daneyko, another 36-year-old defenseman, played almost 26 minutes.
Colin White and Mike Commodore, both rookies, were the other defensemen. White played 26 minutes and Commodore 23. Defenseman Ken Sutton was scratched from the lineup.
The Devils recalled Willie Mitchell from Albany of the American Hockey League today. Mitchell started the season with the Devils and played the first four games. He also played seven more before he was demoted to Albany, where he has been since Nov. 22.
In his 11 games with the Devils, Mitchell had one assist. He has played 34 games for Albany and has 3 goals, 13 assists and 88 penalty minutes.
The Devils preferred Mitchell to Commodore at the start of the season, but Commodore proved to be more composed from the day he was promoted and has now established himself with the Devils.Continue reading the main story

Leadership and Wages Go Hand in Hand for Women

Following reports that the number of hip replacements for the under 60s has risen by 76% in the last decade (1), Spica Warrior, the UK's only developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) dedicated charity, is calling for greater awareness of the condition and effective early screening of babies.
DDH occurs when the ball and socket hip joint fails to develop correctly and whilst not life threatening, if left untreated it can lead to disability, long-term pain, arthritis and ultimately hip replacements.
Founder, Natalie Trice, who is also a member of the International Advisory Board for the International Hip Dysplasia Institute said: "With an ageing population, and the continuing late diagnosis of DDH in babies, children young adults, we weren't shocked by the results out today. We are speaking to an increasing number of people whose DDH was diagnosed late and have subsequently faced years of surgery and hip replacements.
"When it comes to DDH, early diagnosis is vital. A consistent, strict screening process and professionals being aware of the signs of DDH could mean the difference between healthy hips and a child who ends up in constant pain. My son was a late diagnosis and he is now six and still enduring operations and uncertainty but and we aren't alone."
Hannah Purdy, 21, commented: "Hip dysplasia has played a major part in my entire life. I was often in excruciating pain and had a hip replacement when I was 17, which was really tough. I set up HappyHips and support nearly 200 young people through hip issues, many of whom are facing a hip replacement before their 40s. I believe better screening and early detection could change this and make life so much better for many."
Those most at risk are babies where there is a family history of hip problems, those in the breech position or with a fixed foot deformity or torticollis. Not all cases are identified at birth but if parents notice uneven creases in their child's legs and buttocks, clicking of the hips or a limited range of motion it is vital they speak to their GP or health visitor.

In 2013 a small group of local people involved in the Stevenage 60th Birthday celebrations agreed to get together and plan for the town's 70th Birthday since its designation on 11th November 1946 as the first of Britain's post-war new towns.
Our aim was to act on E.M. Forster's dictum in Howards End: "Only Connect!" We saw early on that the celebrations in this year should be community-led, by local people in arts, culture, sports and community groups, with business and council partners supporting us where appropriate.
Our celebrations get going in June, with Stevenage Day and the Arts Mini Festival, and run until two major events in November, the Town Fireworks Display in Fairlands Valley Park and the Finale Show with young people in the Leisure Centre.
The main themes of our celebrations reflect the experiences and changes in Stevenage, from its ancient market town origins to the thriving high tech community we live and work in today:
What has been created in just 70 years by successive generations more than matches the new town vision of those early planners and pioneers in the immediate post-war austerity era. As the town's motto has it, and as we shall see over the coming months: "The heart of a Town lies in its people."
If you would rather access the Stevenage Festival programme for a printable list of the events, you can download that whole programme from here and print off the sheets you require (Warning - the file is quite big - approx 10Mbytes).

If you've only encountered barley in mushroom- barley soup, get ready to make friends with this underappreciated cereal grain. Whether pearled, hulled, or quick cooking, it can help transform your diet. In fact, think of barley as your new white rice.
Unlike white rice, which has a sky-high GL, barley's is low, thanks to its significant stash of soluble fiber. In fact, eating barley instead of white rice slashes the effect on your blood sugar by almost 70 percent. Add it to soups, use it instead of Arborio rice (the worst rice offender of all) in risotto, and serve it as a nutty, flavorful side dish. The possibilities are endless.
Because its insoluble fiber slows the rate at which food leaves the stomach, barley also helps you feel full on fewer calories.
Health Bonus
Because it contains the same kind of cholesterol-lowering fiber found in oats, barley has FDA-approved bragging rights for its ability to lower cholesterol and cut the risk of heart disease.
Glycemic Load: Low

I'm about a third of the way through Stephen W. Webb's Mormon Christianity: What Other Christians Can Learn From the Latter-day Saints (OUP, 2013). Webb is a Catholic professor of philosophy and theology turned writer. His Catholic perspective on LDS doctrine and his evident sympathy for the LDS approach to Christianity make this insightful outsider treatment of LDS theology quite refreshing. I will no doubt post a longer discussion of the book in a week or two, but here is a quotation highlighting some similarities between Catholic and Mormon approaches to Christianity (apart from both traditions being the target of historical Protestant animus, of course):
Category: Liberal Arts
Economics – Law – Philosophy – etc.
Reasoning Together – Zion
We talk about Zion in a lot of different senses, but I think most of these share the general idea of communally gathering, developing, sharing, and partaking in everything that is lovely, virtuous, or praiseworthy or of good report. How do we do this, both collectively and individually, on both a theological and political level? Once again (obviously) I can't adequately answer that question here. But once again I'm bothered by a lot of the discussions I see flying around our virtual and ward-level worlds. I don't like the divisive, polemical way in which these discussions are framed – especially when the discussion revolves around whether all is well in Zion or whether Zion is in need of some serious, often non-contiguous reform. In what follows, this question is my main target and what I want you to consider. Is the good ship Zion sinking while the crew and passengers obliviously bask in what they take to be the sunlight?…
Reasoning Together – Prophets
Here's the main point: I don't think either our history or our theology supports traditional and currently widespread – though often unarticulated – notions of what a prophet is.[1]
Same-Sex Marriage Bans and Tax
The District of Utah has had a busy week. As I'm sure you heard (and if you haven't, you ought to read Kaimi's post first), Utah's ban on same-sex marriage has been struck down as unconstitutional. A week ago, in the wake of the decision that didn't actually legalize polygamy, I looked at the potential tax consequences of that decision and, fairly anti-climatically, determined that there were none. Plenty of electrons will be spilled going over this decision but, again, I suspect that the tax consequences will be underexplored.
Gay Polygamy in Utah!
By now you've heard the news. A federal judge in Utah just ruled that the state's ban on same-sex marriage was unconstitutional. This follow on last week's ruling, from a different judge, that portions of Utah's polygamy statute were also unconstitutional. What does it mean? Obviously, it means the advent of gay polygamy!! It won't stop until everyone is married to everyone else, in one giant gay-polygamous-mega-wedding. Let the festivities begin! Okay, maybe not. Let's go through the rulings, piece by piece, to see what they say, and what their effects may be.
Decriminalizing Polygamy (and, of Course, Tax)
On Friday, December 13, the Judge Waddoups, a district court judge in the District of Utah, held that Utah's criminalization of polygamy was unconstitutional. Partly, anyway.
More on that in a minute. I suspect that this opinion will reverberate throughout the blogosphere and the mainstream media, with the reporting displaying various levels of accuracy. The question I suspect won't get much play, though, is, what are the tax consequences of this decision?
Happy(?) Repeal Day!
The Twitters tell me that 80 years ago today, Utah became the 36th state to ratify the 21st Amendment, thus ending Prohibition.
Whatever you think about Prohibition, it's probably worth noting the Pres. Grant was not a fan of its end. In fact, he addressed the end of Prohibition—and Utah's role in ending it—at General Conference in 1934. Here's an (annotated by me) excerpt of what he said:
Money for Nothing and the Housing for Free
On Thursday, November 21, the district court of the Western District of Wisconsin declared (part of) the parsonage exemption—a special tax provision for certain religious persons—unconstitutional.
The Approaching Zion Project: Work We Must, but the Lunch Is Free
As summer ends, my time to engage with Nibley's social criticisms has begun to return. Of course, I say that the week before classes begin, so a couple things I want to point out before we get started: first, this is a long, detailed chapter.
Invite the IRS to Your Family Reunion
Over at Keepaptichinin, Amy Tanner Theriot has a wonderful post talking about family associations, and providing some guidelines for how to put together a successful association. In the post, she mentions that family associations can qualify as 501(c)(3) tax-exempt entities. At the mention of Code sections (and revenue rulings!), my ears perk up, and I thought I'd give a little more information about the tax side of such organizations. But before you read my post, you need to read Amy's. Because everything I know about family associations I learned reading her post, then doing a little Westlaw research. Because of that, basically nothing I write here will mean much unless you're familiar with what Amy wrote.
The Approaching Zion Project: How to Get Rich
So here we are, a day early (or, um, six days late, if that's the way you want to look at it). Since we're here, let's take a look at Nibley's next approach toward Zion:
The Approaching Zion Project: How Firm a Foundation! What Makes It So
Interestingly enough, this chapter seems to be less focused on Zion and more focused on the Church more broadly. Still, Zion sneaks in, even discussing the Church. As always, a couple things I found interesting:
The Approaching Zion Project: Deny Not the Gifts of God
This chapter (understandably) overlaps significantly with the previous chapter, Gifts. These are, after all, discourses he delivered at various times, to various audiences, with common themes. I'm reading them separately, though, and different things hit me at different readings. So, like always, I won't discuss everything Nibley focuses on (and I'll try to not spend too much time on things I've discussed previously). With that out of the way, on to the chapter.
The Approaching Zion Project: Gifts
For the third (and, I hope, final) time, I read this chapter on an airplane, taking notes as I read it. And there are just a couple quick things I want to highlight and discuss, and one sentence that really troubled me.
The Approaching Zion Project: Zeal Without Knowledge
For the second time, I read this chapter in an airport and on an airplane returning home. With that as my full preface, let's jump into this chapter:
The Approaching Zion Project: What is Zion? A Distant View
Another confession: I had a really hard time with this chapter. And it's not just because I read it sitting in an airport waiting for a plane that was delayed for an hour and a half. Rather, it's because of the way Nibley speaks of the wealthy. Certain of his descriptions feel, to me, so laughably one-dimensional—so moustache-twirling, tying-the-heroine-to-the-tracks—that I find myself fighting both his prose and my instincts to not just dismiss his entire piece out of hand.
Stewards of Prudence and Altruism
Prudence and altruism combined allow us to delay personal gratification or even make sacrifices for the benefit of future people who have not yet been born. The hearts of the fathers must turn to their children
The Approaching Zion Project: Our Glory or Our Condemnation
Now that I've read my first chapter of Approaching Zion, a couple more caveats before we get started. First, I'm not going to bother summarizing what Nibley said. Instead, I'm going to try to engage it, responding to ideas that engaged me, whether I agree or disagree. Second, I'm not going to try to engage with the full text; in Chapter 1, there were two things that really spoke to me, and one more that I'm going to mention and defer until a later installment. Feel free, in the comments, to engage with what I've engaged with, what I've said, or something else in the chapter that you feel needs to be responded to. With that, let's go!
The Approaching Zion Project: Prologue
I have a confession to make: I've never read Hugh Nibley's Approaching Zion. I'm serious. I mean, I bought it years ago, probably before my oldest daughter was born. I've lugged it through at least six or seven moves. And it's sitting on my bookshelf, taking up valuable real estate. But, though I've nibbled here and there, I've never even read a complete chapter.
It seems an odd oversight, frankly: in Approaching Zion, Nibley describes what constitutes a Zion society, and what we need to do to establish such a Zion society; I'm deeply interested in how society and the law can promote social justice and a better world. So it seems like a natural fit, right?
An Overview of LDS Involvement in the Proposition 8 Campaign
I've just posted my article, 'The Divine Institution of Marriage': An Overview of LDS Involvement in the Proposition 8 Campaign, to SSRN. The article is largely descriptive, setting out in some detail the church's actions and statements relating to Proposition 8. It chronicles a significant amount of factual material that has not been discussed at all in the existing legal literature.

An April 15th Post
Happy tax day! In honor of today, a Mormon/tax story:
How a concussion made me think of Stephenie Meyer and Francis Hutcheson
Last semester, my first semester studying Greek, I sustained a mild concussion. I have mostly recovered now. I still have problems with bright lights that makes nighttime driving intolerable, but for the most part, I'm functioning normally. But for a few weeks there, I couldn't think straight. It hurt to concentrate. Reading even a light novel was difficult, and translating Greek was nigh impossible. Just looking at Greek letters caused me pain. But my handwriting was spectacular. Any notes I took about lectures I attended during that time are the most clearly written, beautifully precise notes I have ever taken. Sketching was fine too, so the concentration required to look and draw was painlessly available to me. It was strange to experience this involuntary shift in my capacities. I tend to think that what I think, how I think, is what I am. But if my cognitive functions are subject to physical manipulations, some of which are outside of my…
Finding My Heavenly Mother, Part 4 (Literary Edition)
Also see part 1, part 2 and part 3. In a 1944 essay ("Is Theology Poetry?"), C.S. Lewis remarked, "I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else." As one who embraced Christianity later in life, Lewis had a keen appreciation of how a new discovery of belief can throw a bright reflected glory on the world and everything in it. The mind, which craves new connections of any kind, takes a special delight in those intellectual connections that carry an associated weight of affection. Who has not noted with pleasure the increased sweetness imparted to a beautiful place by the remembrance of a few precious moments shared there with one's beloved? How much more, then, might we linger over a place, a picture, a happy turn of phrase that brought to mind some past or promised communion with the divine, assaulting our senses…
Facebook Memes and the Property Tax
There is, I've been told, a Facebook meme going around, juxtaposing a decaying house and the San Diego temple to support the argument that churches should not be exempt from taxation.
And, like Facebook memes everywhere, this one is dumb. Dumb primarily because it is a tautology that doesn't say anything. Because of course a tax-exempt organization does not pay taxes that a non-exempt individual pays. That's pretty much the definition of tax exemption.
Of course, saying that a Facebook meme is dumb and tautological makes for a pretty short and boring post. Far more interesting, imho, is to take seriously the point that the people spreading the picture are trying to make, and complicating that rhetorical picture a little bit.
The God Who Weeps: Faith
I agree with The God Who Weeps that faith is a decision, but I disagree about the site of this decision.
Finding My Heavenly Mother, Part 2
The same drive which called art into being as a completion and consummation of existence, and as a guarantee of further existence, gave rise also to that Olympian realm which acted as a transfiguring mirror to the Hellenic "will." The gods justified human life by living it themselves—the only satisfactory theodicy ever invented. – Friedrich Nietzsche During part 1 I described for you my personal awakening to the existence of Heavenly Mother. In this post, I'll explore some of the implications that discovery had for the way I view God, religion, and myself. (Also see parts 3 and 4) It's funny, it wasn't until I became experientially aware of the reality of Heavenly Mother that I realized there is a gigantic hole in the way I had been imagining God. All of a sudden, in the midst of a deluge of male pronouns in scripture and hymn and church discourse, all I could hear was a deafening silence about…
Entirely Privately
When I lived in New York, I could have told you what virtually all of my friends paid in rent. It was a fairly common topic of conversation, and the conversation was one of two types: the can-you-believe-I-pay-$2,000-for-this-dump, or can-you-believe-I-only-pay-$3,500-for-this-apartment.[fn1] I didn't really think much of it; I didn't put much stock in financial privacy. And it wasn't just the amount I paid in rent—as an attorney at a big firm in New York, if you wanted to know how much I made, you basically just needed to know the year I graduated from law school, the firm I worked for, and the website for NALP.[fn2] My salary was there for the viewing. After my first stint in New York, while living in the DC metro area, an acquaintance bought a house. And he mentioned the price[fn3] at his housewarming party. His wife was mortified. She explained to him that that is a number you don't mention in public. It…
Moroni Torgan, Yeah Samaké, and Political Neutrality
As a result of its political neutrality policy, the Church is not going to endorse Mitt Romney in his bid to become President (or, for that matter, Harry Reid in his bid to be reelected to the Senate). There are probably a number of reasons for the Church's desire to avoid endorsing a candidate but, as I've said previously, one reason may well be the tax consequences of such an endorsement. (Short refresher: technically, the IRS could revoke the Church's tax exemption, meaning the Church would owe taxes on all of its income other than donations, and that Church members who paid tithing or other offerings could no longer deduct those donations in calculating their taxes.)
Charitable Profit
About six months ago, I got an email asking (a) if I knew anything about low-profit limited liability companies ("L3Cs") and private foundations, and (b) if I'd be willing to be a guest lecturer in a class, explaining what they were and how they function. I did know something (though at the time not much) about them, so I said I'd do it, then spent several weeks immersing myself in the theory and practice behind L3Cs.[fn1] It turns out that Loyola's business school offers an elective class in Social Entrepreneurship. The point of the class, from what I can gather, is to teach business students about how to create profit-making businesses that make the world a better place. *** I've sensed some skepticism recently, both within and without the bloggernacle, about the propriety of charitable institutions making a profit (or, sometimes, about whether profit-making transforms a charitable institution into a non-charitable one). And I find that skepticism odd. Because of course…
Taxing Churches: A Response
Oh no—somebody on the Internet is wrong while I'm on vacation! But duty calls. Recently, Ryan Cragun, a sociology professor, along with students Stephanie Yeager and Desmond Vega, argued that the government subsidizes religion by about $71 billion a year. He thinks this is wrong, and that religions should pay their fair share. I have no problem with his making this argument—tax exemption costs the government significant revenue (though his $71 billion is based on really, really poor assumptions—more on that later), and should be examined carefully and critically. But Prof. Cragun's analysis is not the careful and critical examination that the tax treatment of churches deserves. His piece has a number of significant problems. I'm not going to address all of the problems, including the fact that he appears unaware that there is an extensive academic literature that explores the place of a tax exemption for churches,[fn1] but I am going to address a handful of his assertions. In…

These things are written, that we may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. These miracles of our Lord assure us that he was not conquered, but a Conqueror. Now the disciples are convinced that Jesus is the Christ; they may bear to hear of his sufferings, of which Christ here begins to give them notice. He sees that amiss in what we say and do, of which we ourselves are not aware, and knows what manner of spirit we are of, when we ourselves do not. The wisdom of man is
folly, when it pretends to limit the Divine counsels. Peter did not rightly understand the nature of Christ's kingdom. (Mk 8:34-38)

text: Daphnia Culturing for Use in the Home Freshwater Aquarium written by Bryan Cetroni, West Chester University Abstract: In this article, I go into the benefits of live food for fish. Food types for daphnia will be brought up, also along with ways to culture them. Various set ups for culturing these creatures will also be brought up. Fish and Invertebrate nutrition is always quite important when dealing with what kind of food to use. The main types of food used in the trade are flakes, sinking/bottom feeder pellets/discs, freeze dried, frozen and live. Each has its positives and negatives; however we will deal with the last one. Live food is usually the least used, especially in areas where most LFS only sell feeder fish. Live food stimulates the natural predator behavior of fish. From personal experience, I have found that my fish are much more active and even seem healthier when they have something that mimics what they would eat in their natural environment. Live foods also are a great way to condition fish into optimal breeding condition. After starting a regiment of Black Worms, I caused my Albino Corydoras start to spawn. Now there are many different kinds of live food that can be used. To name a few there are micro worms, brine shrimp, red worms, mosquito larvae, wingless fruit flies, various worms and daphnia. Now I have used most of these, and also done research on using these and find that there are inherent problems with many of them. The medium I found for fruit flies used mayonnaise and molasses (Fish Lore). This medium can start to smell real bad. Also, if fruit flies escape, even wingless variants can easily start to reproduce like crazy. Mosquito larvae are only good for warm weather since, as I discovered, trying to rear them indoors becomes quite difficult since they usually end up escaping and proceeding to attack the mammals of the house. Brine shrimp are great, although since they are saltwater they will die due to lyses in their cells because of the difference in water concentrations. This gives them a short lifeline than freshwater foods. Worms are good, although my experiences with raising Black Worms have led to slow growing colonies that more often than not end of smelling quite terrible. However, no we reach the subject of my paper, Daphnia Magna, the water flea. Since I culture Daphnia Magna, I will talk about culturing them. There are other Daphnia breeds that can be cultured; however the basic culturing is the same for all of them. The Daphnia Magna, or water flea, is a small freshwater crustacean. They get their name from the jerky, flea-like movements that propel them through the water. They are filter-feeders, which mean they eat microscopic organisms in the water. They reproduce through pathogenesis, which means that no males exist, only females. The young are clones of the parents. I will not go in depth on the biology behind them, but will include a link that goes more in depth with them. Now I will go onto how to culture these little guys in a manner that is efficient and effective. They are very similar to brine shrimp in culturing methods, except these are with freshwater. I will start with my first attempts to culture these. Daphnia-Culture Mark 1 consisted of three 5 gallon buckets picked up at the local hardware store. The main bucket has the daphnia, and the others were used to culture greenwater. Greenwater is a good food choice for daphnia, and I will get into these at a later point in time when I get onto feeding them. This worked great, however the lack of water movement caused a film to build up, and water changing was quite difficult. Eventually the entire culture crashed, so I waited a while and then restarted. Mark 2 consisted of a 10 gallon aquarium that I had found in the garbage (along with the Reptilian inhabitant that had no survived too well =( ). I fixed a small crack in it, and filled it up with water. I then used a sponge filter attached to an air pump. This solved many of the problems that Mark 1 had, and kept the water clean and oxygenated. As of now this tank grows them quite well. I also added a CF light bulb attached to an old gecko-lamp. This was brought up as an idea to help them culture better, and it has. A hypothesis why will be brought up later with food culturing. Mark 3 is already in the makings and will be a seasonal way to mass produce millions. I have a slightly opaque 55 gallon barrel that is being converted into a rain barrel in order to conserve rainwater. I plan on using it to culture Greenwater, then seed with daphnia. The results should be massive amounts of Daphnia. Now that I have mentioned it multiple times, you probably ask what Greenwater is. Greenwater is a microalga that grows in the water column, causing the water to become light to dark green in color. Many fish keeps see this as a nuisance; but Daphnia love it. This is some of the best stuff to feed your daphnia. The recipe I use is old tank water from water changes, which then has Organic Miracle Grow added to it at a concentration of 1 tsp per gallon of water. This water is then placed in buckets, or empty 2L soda bottles. Airlines can be run into the soda bottles to keep algae build up off the sides but usually that does not seem to be a problem with me. A note of caution if culturing greenwater outside: cover your buckets. Otherwise you will end up with other creatures that like greenwater, and some creatures that like to eat daphnia. The green water should be fed daily. I originally started Mark 2 with greenwater in their tank, and it helped keep them growing longer. Other types of food for daphnia are yeast and bacteria. Yeast is a simple way to feed them, I use it when my greenwater stores run low. Just take approximately ¼ tsp of dry Active Yeast and dissolve in fish tank water. Then pour into the Daphnia tank. Do not use this too much, since this could destroy water quality causing the Daphnia to die. The other type of food is bacteria, which should be left to outside cultures. This bacteria is made by taking dried horse or rabbit droppings and putting them into a pair of pantyhose, and then floating them in the water. Again this should be for outdoor use only. Gutloading with Spirulina is also advisable right before you feed them to your fish. As far as weekly maintenance goes, do the water changes at the same time as you do the water changes in your fish tank. Just change a quarter of the water every time you do a water change. Daphnia can be very sensitive to water chemistry so too much ammonia can cause them to die. While suctioning out the tank you can attach pantyhose onto the end of the gravel vac. This makes harvesting and cleaning the same job. A big problem with culturing daphnia is keeping population in control. If the population density gets too large, it will cause the water to foul and water chemistry to crash. That can ultimately lead in the death of your culture. So it is advisable to try to harvest daily, especially with larger set ups. If you do by chance forgot to harvest and the tank crashes, do not fear. When water colonies go down Daphnia will change their reproducing habits. They will start to create eggs, that will be shed with their shells. So if your colony dies, then let the tank dry out. Refill with tank water and you should be good to go. That should be everything. Feel free to question me about this article. I give a lot of credit to John Clare of Caudata.org, since without his article I would not have had much data. He goes into the biology a little bit more in depth. Works Cited Clare, John. "Daphnia". www.caudata.org/daphnia/. August 1998, December 1999, May 2000, March 2001, July 2002. FishLore. Fishlore.com.

Situated within walking distance to Cala Nova lies this beautiful country house. The property has a special atmosphere, is well constructed and whilst in good condition some elements could use some modernisation. As it is now, it already ticks all the boxes for a perfect holiday home, and because of central heating also apt for all year living. Due to the fact that the property consists of two independent units one could also target a rental income. The fenced in grounds have an abundance of vegetation, include a good sized pool and a spacious garage. Its proximity to San Carlos and Santa Eulalia and the most beautiful beaches makes this a desirable residence.

Way Of Light certainly strengthened the hand of the Niarchos family for next year's Classics when demolishing yesterday's challenge from Britain and Ireland, but the blue and white Niarchos silks will carry more import when they are sported by Enrique's rider when the colt takes on Lujain and Stravinsky next Saturday
Always travelling better than his six rivals, the Pascal Bary-trained Way Of Light led over a furlong out under Cash Asmussen to beat Paul Cole's Red Sea, ridden by Dominique Boeuf, by one and a half lengths.
Frankie Dettori recovered from flu in time to partner the John Gosden- trained Glamis, but the combination managed no better than third, a further length and a half away. Aidan O'Brien's Coliseum, with Michael Kinane on board, was a disappointing fourth for the stable that had taken the race in such spectacular style last year with the much-vaunted Second Empire.
The going at Longchamp had turned heavy after torrential rain fell before the start of racing. "The ground was very sticky out there and Coliseum was never really travelling on it," O'Brien said.
Alan Cooper, racing manager to Maria Niarchos, said: "Pascal Bary has always liked this horse. He is getting to know Longchamp now and will be back here next spring."
The winning trainer added: "That was a great consolation for Dream Well's defeat in the Arc a week ago."
Paul Cole described the run of second placed Red Sea as "excellent", while John Gosden said that the third-placed Glamis was "beaten by better horses on the day".
The winner paid 2.2-1 on the pari-mutuel, while Andre Fabre's Indian Danehill, who would have been attempting to give Olivier Peslier a remarkable sequence of wins in Group One races, was a late withdrawal.
The William Hill organisation were not overwhelmed with Way Of Light and quote him at 25-1 for next year's 2000 Guineas, though the Prix d'Essai des Poulains looks a more likely target with Enrique heading for Newmarket.
The Epsom trainer, Philip Mitchell, was surprisingly disappointed with the performance of his Running Stag who earned $60,000 (pounds 35,000) for finishing fourth in the Grade One Jockey Club Gold Cup at Belmont Park on Saturday night. "I don't think he cared for the track," Mitchell said. "We'll wait and see what we are going to do with him."
The race went to Wagon Limit, a 34-1 longshot, who denied Skip Away an all-time record for prize-money won.
The winner of 18 of his 37 starts, including his previous nine in a row, Skip Away has won $9,506,360 but his failure to take this $600,000 prize means that he remains behind Cigar's total of $9,999,815. A leg injury sustained in the race means that he may now miss the Breeders' Cup Classic.

Interesting that this signature seems to have climbed in early FF4 returns. It has been the #2 browser crash for the past couple of days. We will watch this one and see what happens as the # of users climb.
This spiked very significantly on FF4 release day (yesterday), together with bug 615098 and bug 643746 (all three are in JS and started spiking on 4.0* the day before, so at least the spike cause might be related), which together account for 2800 crashes in a million 4.0* ADU on that day or about 7.4% of all 4.0* crashes on that day, all three are in the top ten top crashers for 4.0* for this day.
93% of these crashes have testpilot installed, while the average is at 32%, not sure if this correlation is coincidence or not.
I just got hit by this today when clicking check boxes on a survey page.
Isn't Test Pilot installed in Firefox 4 by default so wouldn't most people have Test Pilot installed after upgrading to Firefox 4?

It was part of the product in betas, but not in final. So everyone that had the beta will have it installed but everyone who only got final hasn't (unless they installed it manually).

Ah okay. Strangely enough I got another of these crashes. That's two in one day, when I've never seen it before today.

We are currently unsure what causes this, but we need to get some tracking on it. You also appear to have testpilot activated, which right now is our only (weak) clue.
jono, any updates or thoughts from looking at test pilot side?
dmaindelin, any ideas on how to mitigate the crash on the JS side, or help in understanding what addons might be doing?
Bill, Luke, and I were talking about this morning. We think it may be due to a compartment mismatch. An exception object keeps a list of argument values from the JS stack frames live at the point of the exception. The argument values may belong to different compartments from the exception, but they are not wrapped, which seems like a bug.
Woohoo, the assert hits, only when I install test pilot, and then the offending frame's script is indeed resource://testpilot/modules/lib/securable-module.js -> resource://testpilot/modules/lib/memory.js.

The fix is simple.
Wow, sounds like that was some impressive detective work figuring out the cause of the crash.
Judging by Luke's patch, it seems like this has to be fixed in the core, and so there isn't anything that needs to change in Test Pilot, is that correct?
Correct; Test Pilot just tickled the dragon.
topcrash + security risk? means it really needs to get out in 4.0.1
marked this as ride-along to get on the radar since I'm not quite sure how to mark this kinds of thinks that should have blocked RC if we had known about them earlier.
what's the sg: rating?
Comment on attachment 521956 [details] [diff] [review]
If the current compartment is privileged (chrome), it might be allow to see the content frame. Maybe we should do a follow-up and copy data into the destination compartment in that case.
If nightlies show a good reduction in this crash (and/or bug 615098, bug 615098), should this land on the 2.0?
looks like the volume on mozilla-central / 4.0 "pre" releases is extremely low (like 0-2 crashes per day). so we might need a beta or final release to really know how much impact the fix might have.
for example, here is the volume of crashes per release version in crash data that we got yesterday.

Oops, comment 22 clearly did not see comment 20.
Guessing a missing compartment check might be sg:high, but that's just a guess. Would it allow content/chrome mixing?
The pre-existing security check in stack walking should prevent cross-origin mixing from happening directly. However, we are still accessing trash memory, so it seems to be in the theoretically-possible-to-exploit category.
because it's completely unclear, "blocking2.0: Macaw" means we want this fix on the mozilla2.0 repository for the 4.0.1 release. Consider that repo equivalent to the end-game Fx4 release and request explicit approval2.0 on the appropriate patch.
Comment on attachment 521956 [details] [diff] [review]
Approved for landing on mozilla2.0, a=dveditz for release-drivers
forgive the previous boilerplate comment
We don't see this signature on branches, marking unaffected for now.
It is #9 top crasher in 4.0.1, so I reopen this bug.
I think it might be better to file another one for the remaining things, unless you know that the patch in here doesn't fix any of the crashes we've been seeing with this. Real work has been done here, and the cause supposed to be fixed by the patches in here was deemed a security risk. This bug should cover that class of crashes fixed by this patch. A new bug should be filed for any other class of crashes that might result in the same signature.
As it became from #2 to #9 top crasher, the patch has fixed some causes. They should be written in the summary, so that the bug isn't confused with the meta bug.
When is this fix going to be available? These crashes are tedious.
(In reply to comment #34)
> When is this fix going to be available? These crashes are tedious.
It should be fixed in 4.0.1. The fix is only for crashes with exn_trace in the stack trace.
Fine. When is 4.0.1 going to be available. I crashed again.

No, I don't plan to name them at this point. June is the month I will do all
my naming (just kidding) Presently, I am just growing, watching and learning.
The yingeri seedling has quite a bit of red in the petiole which could make
it a keeper for breeding purposes.
The Yellow River seedlings only real quality at this point is how large it is
comparatively to its siblings. Maybe it is a keeper if it has the potential
for being a giant green hosta. Since my stock in streakers is limited,
growing out a few green plants is not out of the scenario at this time.Which
ones to keep? Not much discussion has been exchanged here concerning quality
traits in solid color seedlings. Substance is one, golds and blues are
others. piecrusting is also popular this year. What other traits should I
watch for? Some hybridizers cull everything that isn't variegated, others
grow them all out for awhile. I fall somewhere in the middle.

Robert B. Turner Elementary announces honor roll
Fourth grade
From staff reports
Preschool students at Ezra Sparrow Early Childhood Center were hosts to two very special guests from the Extension Agency, Joan Martin and Tommy Yankey, also know an "Cowboy Tommy," the Agriculture and Natural Resources Extension Agent for Anderson County. Martin and Yankey read the book "Rodeo Ron and His Milkshake Cows" to students, according to a news release.
Chris Glass is no stranger to the Anderson County school system. Soon, he'll likely be no stranger to most people in Anderson County.
Glass was tabbed to be the next principal of Anderson County High School by the ACHS Site-Based Decision Making Council Friday.
Glass is a 1993 ACHS graduate and he's served as a teacher and administrator in the school system for nearly 13 years, most recently as associate principal at ACHS. He's been serving as interim principal throughout the 2013-14 school year.
Ward, Turner and Saffell Street elementary school students competed in the Region 18 Governor's Cup Competition Saturday in Jessamine County.
Region 18 also includes of elementary schools in Woodford, Jessamine and Mercer counties.
Ward Elementary won the Governor's Cup championship and Saffell Street Elementary tied for fourth place. Governor's Cup is composed of individual and team events.
Individual events
Ward, Turner and Saffell Street Elementary students "dominated" in the District 67 Governor's Cup Competition on Saturday, March 1 in Mercer County, according to event organizers.
All three elementary schools competed in the District 67 Governor's Cup Competition held March 1.

Yonderland Review

We have previously demonstrated that membrane enclosed microvesicles derived from murine lung cells contain lung-specific mRNA, micro RNA and protein and that these microvesicles enter murine marrow cells and effect a change in genetic phenotype manifest by expression of the lung-specific mRNAs;surfactants A-D, aquaporins and clara cell specific protein and in function manifest by increased conversion to epithelial lung cells after transplantation into lethally irradiated mice. The observed mRNA changes appear to be due to transfer of both mRNA and of a tissue specific transcriptional protein. Murine heart, liver and brain also effect tissue specific genetic changes in target marrow cells. The present proposal is a natural extension of these now published studies. We plan to elucidate the specific target cells in marrow for microvesicle genetic changes and will also study individual lung cells for their specific capacity to induce genetic change in marrow;previous studies were with whole lung. We plan to evaluate the stability of the observed genetic changes in marrow both in vitro and in vivo. Lastly, we will extend our characterization of the potential for reprogramming and attempt to identify specific transcriptional proteins or microRNA which may mediate the observed phenotype changes. To carry out these studies we will employ fluorescent activated cell sorting of cell populations, Real-time RT-PCR, immunohistochemistry, cell culture, murine marrow transplantation, SILAC to study protein transfer, lente viral vector transduction of cells and comparative 2-D gel electrophoresis and difference electrophoresis (DIGE). These studies should establish a more precise platform for studies of microvesicles, establish the stability of microvesicle induced genetic changes and begin to unravel the mechanisms behind such changes. This work could alter our thinking toward cell biology in general and open new strategies for approaching a number of diseases characterized by tissue degeneration or damage.
The focus of this project is to determine if vesicles shed by lung cells are able to influence the identity of bone marrow cells that consume them to the point that they behave like lung cells. Such an approach could lead to new approaches for tissue regeneration and repair for a variety of lung diseases. Alternatively, by preventing the transfer of malignant behavior from cancerous cells to non-cancerous cells, novel therapies for cancer could be developed.

The first thing you see when you walk into Rob Pope's two-bedroom Victorian flat in Hove is the bar. Instead of installing the traditional coat rack, or perhaps a mirror and somewhere to put the keys, Pope, the co-owner of Vigilantebespoke.com, a celebrity data protection service, thought his hallway could be better put to far better use, by housing a custom-built drinking hole.
The bar – cream, padded leather, walnut top, built-in lighting, a bell, for last orders, and an adjacent darts board – is quite a statement. But if you think that sounds flashy, you should see his grey, minimalist bathroom: best feature? It's a toss up between the television built into the towel rail, ceiling speakers for the flat's integrated sound system, and the remote control shower and bath. "It means I can flick a switch to warm them up before I get out of bed," says Pope, laughing in acknowledgement of how over the top it sounds. "But I'm 35, single and don't yet have kids," he continues, "which affords me a bit of extra money for all this." And why not? As he says, "it's a fun way to live."
Pope's flat, designed by Atticinteriors.biz, is the archetypal domestic bachelor dream – a fun palace full of gratuitous gadgets, manly decor and bloke-ish novelties, with no need for dull, typically female concessions such as extra storage, grown-up aesthetics or practicality.
The masculine flat-for-one, even in its no-frills version, has been around since the 1950s, when unmarried men began to gain enough social currency to live alone without being seen as freakish. Man-hosted martini soirées, accompanied by tunes on the Radiogram swiftly followed. And the stereotype, along with the significant role it has come to play in defining a man's sense of status, has endured: Hugh Grant's chrome and gadget filled flat in About a Boy was a clear metaphor for his determinedly unattached character and, more recently, we've all merrily concluded that Russell Brand's wild bachelor days are over – because what other possible reason could provoke the sale of his opulent, monochrome London man pad (black bathroom suite, satin sheets and a hot tub in the garden)?
But the lone-occupancy, testosterised apartment is, apparently, fast becoming a stereotype on the slide.
The recession has taken a far heavier toll on men than it has on women, with the number of unemployed men increasing by almost 50 per cent since the recession started, compared with just 33 per cent for women, according to figures from The Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development. Significantly, it is young men – the prime bachelor pad demographic – who are being hardest hit, and having to downsize their strings-free domestic lives, or adjust their living arrangements.
"In the past," says Amelia Greene, partner for residential lettings at a central London branch of upmarket property consultants, Cluttons's, "the typical 'City boy' would not have thought twice about splashing out £750-£1,500 per week on a one or two-bedroom apartment to live in alone – but clients like that have just dropped off the face of the earth as these men lose their jobs or get relocated back to their companies' headquarters abroad. Last summer the market was flooded with rental properties – including "designer" one or two-bedroom flats with boys' toys like plasma TVs, flashy lighting systems, surround sound, PlayStations and Xboxs included. Those places, once taken by single men, are now being taken up by couples. Recently our business has been about recycling existing tenants – people with growing families upsizing and taking advantage of lower rents, rather than new blood coming to London – i.e. young professionals with good salaries and bonuses, which were previously a good share of our business."
"I know I'm really lucky, admits Rob Pope. "Most of my single friends are now sharing flats as they can't currently afford to live alone – and two are in the process of downsizing."
Another bachelor, a 34-year-old freelance graphic designer from London who doesn't want to be named , sheepishly admits that lack of work partly prompted a move into a girlfriend's flat, from the large, one-and-a-half bedroom bachelor pad he had been renting in Shoreditch. "My trainer collection – which used to fill a whole wall of shelving – has had to move to my mum's attic," he says. "She didn't have room for my 4,000 records, though. Getting rid of them was a really painful decision; in my old place, they had a whole room to themselves. For my girlfriend, bringing them was a deal-breaker – and I couldn't afford to live alone any more."
Stevie Buckley would no doubt sympathise. The 23-year-old former junior stockbroker from London has been unemployed since April, following mass redundancies at his company in the City. Until then, he'd been living alone in a £400-per-week, one-bedroom flat in a modern, serviced apartment block with views over the Thames. "To get that place was just astonishing," he says now, from his current home – a cramped studio flat with views over a busy street, where his 50in plasma screen TV, the only remnant from his former domestic set-up, dominates the bed/living room, and "makes everything else look really small". He says he misses the old place dearly.
"Working for the company I used to work for, where you're earning lots of money, it's always going to be competitive," he says. "So for me, particularly at that early stage of my career, the flat was an outward sign that I was doing quite well."
Losing that lifestyle has also affected Buckley's social life. "I used to have people over considerably more than I do now. Showing off my old residence was nice – especially the river views." And now? "I socialise a lot less, to be honest," he says. And as for home entertaining, there isn't really the space. "Life's much simpler at the moment," he says, "and while I really hope I do get to sort myself out, get a new job and move back to a place like that, for now, it's back to basics."

This matches better with the no-op intent of RequestDecode() and will be true more often once decode on draw is enabled which will give an earlier exit.
It also makes my debugging easier.
When attaching patches, can you use the "take bug and set the bug status to" checkbox to set assignee automatically, as it saves me having to fix it on merge. Thanks :-)

This review is from: CORSAIR RM Series RM750 750W ATX12V v2.31 and EPS 2.92 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Full Modular Active PFC Power Supply
Pros: • Fully Modular
• Came in a nice package
• Delivery was fast and package came unscathed
• Noise levels are awesome. I upgraded from a different 500W Corsair psu and you could easily notice the difference in noise.
Cons: * stiff wires, but if you're good with organizing, you should be fine.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: EVGA GeForce GTX 700 SuperClocked 02G-P4-2774-RX GeForce GTX 770 2GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI-E 3.0 16x SLI Support Video Card Manufactured Recertified Factory Refurbished
Pros: Cheaper than a new one.
My package arrived in less than 7 days. The gpu looks new and scratch free. Installed it and it runs perfectly. I used EVGA's benchmarking utility and it shows a 50% increase in performance compared to my old EVGA GTX 660 SC. With a decent cpu, it should run Battlefield 4 above 60 fps. (I have the i5-4670k)
Cons: It was delivered by purolator. There were people at home but no one heard a door bell or a knock on the door so I had to pick it up from purolator. When I got the package, the box had a hole (a kid's hand would probably fit in it) at the side which also tore through the gpu's box. You could actually see a part of the gpu from the outside. If not for the protective plastic holder of the gpu, it would have been damaged. It might just be that one particular delivery guy, but newegg might be a little bit at fault here. Not worth an egg though.
Other Thoughts: Makes a grinding noise for 5 secs at a certain fan level but I can live with that until I get the 800 series.
It had the same price as the one posted in newegg.com. Awesome
