UNICEF estimates that by 2010, sub-Saharan Africa will have over 53 million orphaned children. Over 30% of these will be orphaned by AIDS. Two-thirds of double orphans are adolescents, reflecting the coming of age of Africa's children orphaned by the AIDS epidemic. Due to their young age and life circumstances, orphaned and separated children are very vulnerable to economic and sexual exploitation, sexual risk taking behaviour, excessive drug and alcohol use, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, malnutrition, and tuberculosis. Although orphaned children are not yet recognized by UNAIDS as a high risk population for acquiring HIV, these young people are at an especially heightened risk precisely because of their social and economic vulnerability. Although strengthening the capacity of families and communities to protect and care for orphans is the ideal strategy for mitigating the impact of AIDS on family and community structures, there are numerous indicators that families and communities are overwhelmed by the numbers of orphans requiring care. Thus, the quality of care and support these children receive may be compromised. In addition to various configurations of care provided by extended family, several additional care models are emerging. These include formal and informal foster homes, orphanages, community-based programs, government detention centres, homes and schools run by religious institutions or other non-governmental organizations. The overall goal of this study is to improve the health and well-being of orphaned children.
The specific aims of the study are therefore to: A.1. Describe existing models of care for children who are orphaned or separated (i.e. actual or virtual orphaned children) in the Uasin Gishu District of Western Kenya;A.2. Investigate the effect of care environment characteristics on key socioeconomic indicators for orphaned and separated children;and A.3. Measure the effect of care environment characteristics on the physical and mental health of the resident children.
More than two thirds (68%) of all people living with HIV live in sub-Saharan Africa, and more than three quarters (76%) of all AIDS deaths in 2007 occurred in this region. AIDS alone has left approximately 15 million children and adolescents without parents, and half of these are adolescents. These children and adolescents are at extraordinarily high risk of adverse physical, social, and psychological outcomes including HIV-infection. The child's home or care environment is a primary target for interventions and support aimed at reducing their risk, and improving their health and well-being.

c-Met and Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) are receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) that work together to promote the progression of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). Our current studies focus on the use of VeraTag technology to quantitatively, accurately and objectively determine if co- activation, co-overexpression and proximity of c-Met and EGFR can predict patient prognosis. Research over the last decade has enabled the development of several RTK-targeted inhibitors (RTKIs) against both c-Met and EGFR. However, recent clinical trials, targeting individual receptors or combinations, are not always effective due to their acquired resistance. Hence, it is important to determine the mechanism of resistance to EGFR/c-Met RTKIs, which is not defined, by utilizing drug resistant cell lines, developed in our lab. Future studies must focus on the development of new inhibitor combinations which may be targeted together to reduce resistance to EGFR/c-Met based therapies.
The specific aims of this project are:
Specific Aim 1 : Determine the role of EGFR and c-Met expression in lung cancer tumorigenicity and elucidate the role of c-Met/EGFR mediated synergism and resistance in human tumor tissues. A. Determine the co-activation, co-overexpression and proximity of c-Met and EGFR in human lung tumor tissues through VeraTag technology and immunostaining for EGFR and c-Met phosphorylated forms and their ligands.
Specific Aim 2 : Elucidate the mechanism of c-Met and EGFR resistance. A. Determine if resistance developed to EGFR/c-Met RTKIs alters response to EGF or HGF and increases c- Met stability. B. Identify key downstream signaling proteins associated with acquired resistance to c-Met/EGFR therapies by western blotting/mass spectrometry and validate the efficacy of these proteins using si/shRNA vectors. C. Identify activated kinases mediating resistance to EGFR/c-Met inhibitors using kinase enrichment kits and active site probes. Study Design: To understand how c-Met and EGFR function together, we propose to study EGFR and c-Met co-overexpression, co-activation and proximity in NSCLC tumors using novel VeraTag technology and immunostaining. To study the mechanism of resistance to EGFR and c-Met RTKIs, cell lines resistant to EGFR, c-MET, and EGFR/c-Met combined RTKIs have been developed. Mass spectrometry and microarray analysis will be performed to identify specific proteins that may play an important role in resistance to c-Met and EGFR inhibitors. Using siRNA/shRNA vectors the role of a few novel target proteins that play a role in resistance to RTKIs will be validated. Kinase enrichment kits and active site probes will be used in collaboration with Thermo Fisher Scientific to study kinases which are activated specifically in resistant cells.
Advances in medical science have developed novel therapies that target EGFR and c-Met receptors, important proteins involved in the development and progression of lung cancer. Our studies will focus on determining if co-activation, co-overexpression and/or co-localization of EGFR/c-Met are correlated with prognosis in lung cancer patients. Recent clinical trials targeting individual receptors or combinations are not always effective due to their acquired resistance and hence, utilizing drug resistant cell lines developed in our lab will help us determine how tumors become resistant to these therapies and how resistance can be overcome.

Stick and stones may break their bones,
But your words will pull them apart,
The damage caused remains unknown,
As your daggers pierce their heart,
The words you said get in their head,
Depression gets created,
They think it'd be easier if they was dead,
Because living is over rated,
The torture their mind goes through,
Because of your razored tongue,
Made up stories that are never true,
But you see them as fun,
They're crying on the inside,
You take things way to far,
They stay brave on the outside,
As your give them their new scar,
You know that girl you like to bully,
And that boy who you abuse?
You dont understand fully,
The damage you induce,
You're ruining their lives
They wish they don't exist,
They're sitting with sharp knives,
Putting scratches on their wrists,
Well I hope you're fucking happy,
You lowlife piece of scum,
You're a coward, you're a bully,
And soon your day will come.

DRDGold Agrees to Allow Mine Acid Treatment Plant on Its Land
DRDGold Ltd. (DRD) agreed to allow South Africa's water infrastructure authority to access its land to build a pipeline and plant for treating acid discharged from derelict mines that's contaminating Johannesburg groundwater.
The Trans-Caledon Tunnel Authority SOC Ltd., which builds dams and tunnels to supply water to South African factories and mines, will have access to DRDGold's land and a shaft to build the plant, the gold mining company said in a statement. The state agency will also be allowed to build a pipeline on the land and use one of the company's sludge dams, it said.
"While these heads of agreement should not be seen as an unqualified endorsement of the state's acid mine drainage solution, and do not affect our right to either challenge future directives or to implement our own initiatives should it become necessary, they are an encouraging development," Chief Executive Officer Niel Pretorius said in the statement.
The government wants mining companies to help pay to treat acid water oozing from derelict gold mines around Johannesburg. While the authority plans to treat the water, it hasn't found a way to pay for maintaining the plants, Zodwa Mbele, executive manager for project finance and treasury, said on Oct. 1.

We took to the highway with a county map in hand.
It's been years in the making and we are executing plans"
— "Limberlost," by Laura K. Balke
Local folk singer-songwriter Laura K. Balke is a perfect fit for Oranje. Balke's new project combines her pen and ink concrete poetry drawings with her delicate, lush songs. For her, it's a new development in a year full of them. Balke just passed her one-year mark as a completely independent, full-time musician.
"I've been in almost every state east of Nebraska this year," she says. "It's kind of kicked me in the butt in a lot of ways, but good ways. Reminders about what's important, why I play music. It's made me grateful for every single person that listens."
Balke, who has played somewhere around 100 shows this year, booked the majority of her tour herself, which she describes as the biggest hurdle as an independent musician. But she's had lots of help, in the form of talented local musicians who've contributed both to records and tours. A guitarist herself, she mostly performs with her "utility man," Zachary Jetter of Humans and th'EMPIRES who rotates between guitar, bells and percussion. She's also been joined at various points by pianist Kurt Friedrich, New York-based producer Jon Autry and other notable locals.
These are the same performers who contributed large parts to Balke's newest release, Rumors and Legends. The 11-track album was released in November at the now-closed Earth House.
Before the release, Balke created custom pieces of art for each of her tracks. The pieces used the lyrics for the tracks to create dynamic portraits; each pen and ink drawing is illustrative of the song's content, and, in the translucent gold vinyl and CD releases, is included in track order for the listener's perusal. [Editor's note: See the art for her track "Not for This" below.] The release show was the first time Balke incorporated her art into her performance.
The recording itself was done in parts in places near and far.
"We recorded at the Murphy Arts Building, in my apartment, in New York City, in Northern Indiana in an old piano warehouse. All kinds of places," says Balke.
"We could only be at [the Murphy Building] during non-business hours, so we spent a couple long nights recording there, powered solely by Taco Bell, Woodchuck Cider and candy," says keys player Friedrich.
The resulting album is both exuberant and measured, showcasing Balke's powerful voice and animated instrumentation.
"Laura had a very clear idea in her head of each song's identity and what direction she wanted them to go, even before anything was recorded. So, it was easy to bounce different ideas and sounds off her until we found the ones that fit best," says Friedrich.
Her strong sense of musical identity has powered her solo machine thus far. Excepting an appearance on Flannelgraph's 2011 holiday release, Balke says her DIY mentality keeps her longing to be completely independent.
"If I'm going to do it, I'm going to do it exactly how I want to do it. There's something very cool about self-releasing, since you're on your own timeline," says Balke.
But the grind can be lonely.
"I have done three full-length self-releases completely independently. I think I would like to have some label support for the next record," she says.
But for now, she's happy making her own way.
"The whole concept of having a day job and security is so pounded into us. I took a detour, and I'm glad I did it. I live off my record sales now," says Balke. "I don't regret anything; it's always been my dream to be doing this."
Balke will bring new songs and new art to the NUVO Stage at Oranje at 8 p.m. Then, she's off to Ohio, Michigan and the far reaches of Northern Indiana.
Is she ready for another year?
"I'm ready for infinite years," she laughs. "It can only get better from here."

Lots of 'The Other Guys' Set Photos with Will Ferrell & Mark Wahlberg
Adam McKay's The Other Guys is currently filming, and Accidental Sexiness recently got a hold of some terrific-quality set photos from Chinatown in NYC that you can check out below.
Yes, it's a buddy cop movie, with Will Ferrell playing the presumably neurotic straightedge versus Mark Wahlberg's loose cannon who doesn't play by the rules. (And no, I don't know why they don't have shoes on.) But I am interested in how this will turn out, not just because of the cast — it also features, deep breath, Samuel L. Jackson, Dwayne Johnson, Eva Mendes, Michael Keaton, Steve Coogan, Damon Wayans Jr., and Rob Riggle — but because the word is this will have a more "realistic" tone than McKay's Anchorman, Talladega Nights, and Step Brothers. Which is good, because I haaaated Step Brothers. I know some people think it's a masterpiece, but…ugh.
And it's really refreshing to see Will Ferrell step out of his man-child persona.

Not at all, as it has already been explained many times in this very newsgroup (notwithstanding the online help that contains some examples illustrating this point). Plot does not evaluate immediately its arguments because it has the attribute HoldAll: Attributes[Plot] {HoldAll, Protected} So, having the attribute HoldHold, what Plot "sees" in first instance the unevaluated expression Table[g[x, n], {n, 1, 2}], which stands for only *one* function. Thus the choice of colors is just for one function/expression, not for the list of functions that will be returned after evaluation of the first argument. To force the evaluation of the first argument before doing anything else, one must use Evaluate, so Mathematica's main loop evaluates Table[g[x, n], {n, 1, 2}] to the list {g[x, 1], g[x, 2]} and feed Plot with this list as first argument. Then Plot is evaluated and "sees" a list of two function as its first argument and thus select two colors. As usual, Trace might be useful to have a glimpse at what's going on. Plot[Table[g[x, n], {n, 1, 2}], {x, 0, 1}, PlotStyle -> {Red, Blue}] // Trace {Plot[Table[g[x,n],{n,1,2}],{x,0,1},PlotStyle->{Red,Blue}], {x=.,Null},{x=.,Null},{{x}=.,{x=.},{x=.,Null},{Null}}, {Table[g[x,n],{n,1,2}],{{x,0.0000204286},{n,1}, g[0.0000204286,1],0.0000204286^1,0.0000204286}, [...] Plot[Evaluate@Table[g[x, n], {n, 1, 2}], {x, 0, 1}, PlotStyle -> {Red, Blue}] // Trace {{Table[g[x,n],{n,1,2}],{{n,1},g[x,1],x^1,x}, {{n,2},g[x,2],x^2},{x,x^2}}, Plot[{x,x^2},{x,0,1},PlotStyle->{Red,Blue}], [...] Regards, -- Jean-Marc

Collaborative learning through better design
A glimpse into the Centre for Engineering Innovation and Entrepreneurship opening in 2016
In an early morning tutorial, students are racing to complete a daily challenge. But instead of working alone in a computer lab or in extended rows of lecture seating, they're collaborating at six small tables, surrounded by the latest learning technology.
Welcome to a Technology-Enhanced Active Learning (TEAL) room – one of several new hands-on learning spaces for U of T students at the forthcoming Centre for Engineering Innovation and Entrepreneurship (CEIE), targeted to open in 2016.
The CEIE features prominently in the future landscape of U of T's downtown campus and showcases innovative and intentional designs that will promote collaborative, hands-on learning. Here's a glimpse:
Light fabrication facilities
The new light fabrication facilities in the CEIE will allow students to turn their ideas into working prototypes. Large, open-concept rooms hold mechanical and electrical resources as well as 3D printers. The workspaces are conveniently located near collaborative TEAL and design rooms, so that students can quickly move between the planning and production stages of their projects.
With supervision and resources available long after the classroom doors have closed for the day, the facilities are designed to be accessible, and will be used by students for class projects as well as clubs, co-curricular activities, and much more.
"Our students really need a creative construction space in order to go beyond the boundaries of the coursework and into the realm of really creative design," said Professor Susan McCahan, U of T Engineering's vice dean, undergraduate.
TEAL rooms
"There's a whole slew of research that suggests that collaborative problem-solving, and directed interaction between students, is much more effective as a learning pedagogy than traditional lecturing," said McCahan.
That's why plans include up to six TEAL rooms. The new spaces will provide an environment that's conducive to a more active approach to learning, and one that overcomes the challenges with traditional lecture-centric classroom design. Designed specifically for collaborative, hands-on learning, these rooms are slated to include:
counter-height tables that allow professors to engage eye-to-eye with students
grouped tables to foster collaborative learning
state-of-the-art screens around the room that are accessible to every student
power sources for students to run tablets or laptops at their table
McCahan hopes that these new learning spaces will help professors to "think more intentionally about the activities that are going on in the tutorials," and, ultimately, "to teach differently."
A centre for collaboration
According to Steve Miszuk, director of planning and infrastructure at U of T Engineering, the new building is designed to encourage collaboration throughout the entire building. Student spaces are concentrated, so individuals and teams can quickly act on new ideas – brainstorming them in the design/meet rooms, creating them in the fabrication facilities and then receiving mentorship to commercialize them in the Entrepreneurship Hatchery.
For many of the Faculty's interdisciplinary research labs and institutes, offices and workspaces are planned around 'nerve centres,' or open areas designed to facilitate interaction and dialogue.
"[The CEIE] is a chance to create a building that is entirely centred on engineering, and on the theme of collaborative learning," said Miszuk. He noted that the building will even have a 500-seat lecture hall that can be transformed from a traditional theatre to a collaborative environment for students to debate and discuss ideas in teams.
"I think that the theme throughout the entire building is the power of collaboration in learning, creating and innovating," said McCahan. "Whether you're talking about the collaborative lecture space, the Entrepreneurship Hatchery, or myriad other spaces, when you put people together into teams, the whole can be greater than the sum."

Special thanks to Scott at Amoeba Music Hollywood, where the Look Daggers (Ikey Owens of The Mars Volta & 2Mex of Visionaries and SonGodSuns) did a great free in-store performance on Thursday evening, for this week's Top Five Hip-Hop Albums. This chart, based on sales for the past week, includes some great new albums such as hip-hop trio Jedi Mind Tricks' sixth and latest full-length A History of Violence, and Little Brother's Separate But Equal (Drama Free Version) which should not be confused with the similar (including title) release by the group originally featured by DJ Drama on a hosted mixtape. The official DJ Drama-free version contains many extra previously unreleased tracks and bonus material.
And in the top slot on this week's Top Five is the great new release from Q-Tip of A Tribe Called Quest fame called The Renaissance. Q-Tip is currently riding high on rave reviews for both this album and his current headlining spot on the Bounce Tour. The video game tour, sponsored by 2K Sports, rolled through San Francisco two nights ago in a concert at the Mezzanine. Backing Q-Tip onstage for this show (and all of the tour) was both a full live band and a special DJ, DJ Scratch of EPMD fame. Music fanatic, Amoeba Music fan and self-described "jaded raver" Porkchop attended the SF show and was kind enough to write a review for the Amoeblog.

Rockabilly Hall of Fame member Jody Reynolds died this past week of liver cancer in Palm Desert, California. He was 75. His most famous record, and sole Top 10 hit, "Endless Sleep," not only added a strange evocative sound to the typical Rockabilly rave-up of the day -- Reynolds differentiated himself from many of the era's rockabilly artists with his disquieting, haunting melodies -- but was a forerunner in the long line of melodramatic teen hit records and a genre sometimes known as "teardrop rock."
Born in Denver on Dec. 3, 1932 as Ralph Joseph Reynolds, his family soon moved to Oklahoma, where he grew up listening to country music and Western swing acts such as Eddy Arnold and Bob Wills, eventually picking up the guitar as a teenager. In 1956 while performing in Yuma, Arizona, Reynolds wrote the song "Endless Sleep" after listening to Elvis Presley's "Heartbreak Hotel" five times in a row on a jukebox. Two years later Reynolds met a music publisher named Herb Montei who forwarded the demo version to the Los Angeles based label Demon Records. Demon liked the demo but executives insisted on Reynolds tacking on a more uplifting end to the song; the revised finale has the suicidal girl saved from drowning by her guilt ridden beau. Another peculiar bit of history about "Endless Sleep" -- writing credits for the song went to Jody Reynolds and Dolores Nance, but according to Reynolds, Nance was a fictitious person created by the Demon Records to make it appear that there was songwriting team.
By the summer of 1958 "Endless Sleep" became a huge national and international hit, peaking at No. 5 on Billboard's Hot 100 singles chart, no doubt opening the door for several other doomed tales of love-death tinged million selling pop hits including Mark Dinning's "Teen Angel," Ray Peterson's "Tell Laura I Love Her," Dickey Lee's "Patches" and the Shangri-Las' "Leader of the Pack," to name but a few. Reynolds' next single was not as successful. "Fire of Love" peaked at number 66 on the Billboard charts. It would be his last charting single. Still, he continued to record and tour into the 1970's for several labels including Smash, Brent and Pulsar Records. His typically anomalous 1963 recording, and excellent single, on Titan Records, "Stranger in the Mirror" / "Requiem for Love" featured a very young Bobbie Gentry ("Ode to Billie Joe") in her debut. Eventually Reynolds opened a music store in Palm Springs and worked as a real estate agent. He was inducted into the Rockabilly Hall of Fame in 1999.

Registration is now underway for the 25th graduating class of the Rushing Springs School of Theology.
According to School President Rev. B.G. Springer, pastor of Mount Zion Missionary Baptist Church in Anniston, classes are open to both ministers and laypeople. Classes meet this semester on Mondays and Thursdays from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Rushing Springs District Education Center in Sylacauga. Registration remains open through Oct. 10.
There will be a total of eight classes offered this semester, including the Old Testament with a focus on the Book of Exodus, survey of the New Testament and world religions. Instructors include Dr. L.L. Jacobs, Dr. Jerry Jones and the Rev. Clarence Henderson.
Students will be responsible for tuition, books and fees, but Springer said all of these charges will be nominal.
Each class covers three semester hours, with students graduating when they have earned enough credits. Number of credits necessary to graduate varies with the course of study. The school offers certifications, diplomas and degrees up to and including master of divinity.
During the twenty-six years the school has been operating, Springer said he could not say for certain how many masters degrees had been awarded, but quite a few had. The anniversary of the first graduating class will observed May 14.
"The school operates year round, with a break in the summer, just like the public schools do," Springer said. "Then we start back up in September."
Other courses offered at various times include effective Bible reading with Mary Thomas, instructor; the Synoptic Gospels with the Rev. Tommy Hardy, instructor; survey of John with the Rev. Van T. Welch instructor and survey of Revelations, with the Rev. Jerry Jones instructor.
The Rev. J.F. McKinney serves as both the dean of the school and the Moderator of the Rushing Springs Missionary Baptist Association. Springer said the school and the association are two distinct organizations, although they share a similar name, a building and some leadership.
For more information, call Mary R. Duncan, dean, at 256-268-9820, or the Rev. B.G. Springer, president, at 256-362-0115.

See the Project Update Document below for what's been happening over the last few months at the Julio Otoni Community.
Please Help! The project has launched an important new initiative "Adote uma Crianca /Adopt a Child" to try and cover the running costs of the project which are currently not being met. For each child participating in the project it costs R$70 per month. For this amount (approx US$31 / £23 per month) you can "Adopt a child" guaranteeing their participation in the project and offering them alternatives to getting involved in the drug and gang culture which is the norm.
There are currently 57 children in the project, 29 who have been adopted and 28 needing adoption.
Please see the site and project update below for more information.
Project Reports on GlobalGiving are posted directly to globalgiving.org by Project Leaders as they are completed, generally every 3-4 months. To protect the integrity of these documents, GlobalGiving does not alter them; therefore you may find some language or formatting issues.
If you donate to this project or have donated to this project, you will get an e-mail when this project posts a report. You can also subscribe for reports via e-mail without donating.
