Book Review: Science Under Siege: Defending Science, Exposing Pseudoscience edited by Kendrick Frazier
Review by Laura Sanders
By Science News, 11:32 AM August 27, 2009
Scientific literacy has taken a hit. Facts are absent or distorted by spin doctors, leaving people to flounder when interpreting complex issues, writers argue in this new collection of essays. Edited by former Science News editor Kendrick Frazier (now editor of Skeptical Inquirer), these engaging, insightful and often surprising essays by researchers and journalists describe what science is and is not, and what happens when the facts get twisted.
"Discovering new evidence about nature is what...

Plot Summary
No one knows how to react to the new girl at Mica High. She wears long pioneer dresses, sings to people in the cafeteria and calls herself Stargirl. The students are stunned at first, then enamored by the passionate young lady who leads cheers for their mediocre sports teams and brings about a revival of school spirit. Leo, the story's shy narrator, finds himself attracted to her, and she returns his affection. But when Stargirl starts cheering not only for her school's team, but also for the other teams during a game — and the school's sports team starts losing — everyone turns on Stargirl. At Leo's suggestion, Stargirl tries to become more like everyone else so she can fit in better. In doing so, Stargirl begins to surrender everything that made her special and unique.
Christian Beliefs
When Leo tells his mentor, Archie, (see "Authority roles") that the kids at school are ignoring him and Stargirl, Archie mentions the Amish practice of "shunning." He explains that sometimes someone who sins is excommunicated from the church and completely ignored by the whole community until he repents.
Other Belief Systems
Stargirl meditates in her "enchanted" place in the desert. She tells Leo that she tries to "erase herself" so she can feel the earth and universe speaking to her without her own senses getting in the way. Stargirl has a vision that she's going to win the speech contest (which she does). Archie shares his humanistic theories with Leo and later claims people originally came from stars.
The word crap appears once or twice.
After Stargirl kisses Leo, he says, "That was no saint kissing me." The text specifically notes that Leo and Stargirl have separate rooms while they're staying at a hotel for Stargirl's speech contest. After a mean classmate slaps Stargirl, she kisses the bully on the cheek.

As I sit and type this, I am surrounded by an explosion of cosmetic brochures and beauty samples which are my takeaway from the first day of the Beyond Beauty Trade Expo in Paris. I must admit, I was dazzled and overwhelmed by the sheer size of the expo. There are two large open floors to explore, filled with hundreds of eye-catching displays and beauty products. At almost each one of the stands you could find and talk to the people who are behind the creation of the products. As the day progressed, so did my bold frankness at prompting people to explain to me what was so unique about their products.
So without further ado, here is a glance at some of the beauty brands that I came across today at Beyond Beauty's Trade Expo:
Natur Nuá
Spanish based natural and artisanal cosmetics. They have numerous ranges of products, from facial treatments, body oils and serums, solar protection and tanning oils, and even an intimate range for amorous activities. Their range of essential oils is quite comprehensive, drawing from sources such as ylang yang, myrrh, neroli, sage, jasmine, ginger, lemongrass and the list goes on. To learn more, visit their site at www.naturnua.com
Pure, artisanal shea butter from Mali in West Africa. It was interesting talking to the ladies dressed in their colorful pagnes as they explained to me all the things you can do with shea butter. It's useful for moisturizing the skin, the hair, for cooking, stomache aches, colds and even for alleviating sinus problems. I laughingly told them that I'll stick to using it for moisturizing my skin and maybe my hair. Though I really do marvel at the wonders of Shea Butter. Kaloje is a fair trade project aimed at empowering women and is supperted by UNIDO. To read more visit www.projetkarite.org
Ametis is part of the Cosmeeting Color exhibit, which are cosmetic products dedicated to caring for black and ethnic skin. I asked Marie Paget, the Chadian born creator behind Ametis why different skin care products are necessary for darker skin. Her response was that dark skin have different balances of melanin which can pigment the skin and lead to dark spots and other discolorations. In any case, Ametis is quite a new name in cosmetics. Its beauty products range from daily care (cleansing, soothing and protecting) to specific care that includes skin brightening correctors and white cream and white peel-off masks. To learn more, visit their site at www.ametiscosmetics.fr
Chateau Rouge
Chateau Rouge is also part of the Cosmeeting Color exhibit. Although their products are not certified natural and organic, they are created with active ingredients based on vegetal sources. The name Chateau Rouge also happens to coincide with that of a metro stop in the African quarter in Paris. Two pharmacists who were situated in the Chateau Rouge quarter, created a brand that would cater specifically to the skin problems of their clientele, the majority of whom had problems with dark spots, discolorations, poor hydration etc. It was interesting however to hear that their goal is not to lighten the skin, which is actually a common endeavor among people of darker skin tones. To learn more, visit their site at www.chateaurouge.net
Jardins D'Ecrivains
The literal translation of Jardin D'Ecrivains is The Garden of Writers. Luxurious, whimsical but always inspired, Jardin D'ecrivains is another fairly young enterprise with beauty products that carry the names of great literary authors including Victor Hugo, Edith Wharton, Maupassant and the Brontë sisters. I find the concept quirky and brilliant. They carry perfumes, bath salts and candles. I was intrigued by Le Bain de Wharton, which are opulent turquoise colored bath salts that turn the color of your bath water turquoise blue. To learn more, visit their site at www.jardinsdecrivains.com.
Kadalys is a French certified organic beauty brand which exploits the cosmetic properties of the banana plant. This is news to me. So why bananas? That seemed to be the question posed by everyone who passed the Kadalys display. According to Kadalys researchers, the banana plant possesses extraordinary anti-age properties through its phytosterol and polyphenol molecules. Their skin care range includes cleansers, serums, anti-aging creams and nourishing oils. To learn more, visit their site at www.kadalys.com
Janjira Is another beauty brand that boasts the extraordinary powers of exotic ingredients from the East. It is a company based in Thailand that makes spa ritual inspired skincare. The featured active ingredient of their three main product lines are ginger, citrus and pomegranate. To learn more, visit their site at www.janjira.co.uk
A colorful and imaginative cosmetic concept dedicated to making the most out of your sunbathing experience. In fact, Coloriage takes the whole concept of sunbathing and seems to make a new art out of it. There are three phases involved in sunbathing, according to Coloriage. And Coloriage products are there to help make the most out of each phase. The first phase involves the use of a shower gel that must be applied ten days before exposure to the sun in order to prepare the skin to take on a tan in the best of conditions.The second phase involves another shower gel that can be used daily throughout the time your skin is exposed to the sun. And the third phase involves a shower gel that will prolong and maintain the tan which you've carefully been cultivating. To learn more, visit www.coloriage-cosmetique.com
A french natural and organic certified cosmetic brand. They have two skin lines, one dedicated for mature or dry, devitalized skin and another for skin beginning to show the first signs of aging. Demain-Nature boasts of a breakthrough formulation of a purely natural hyaluronic acid, a notable anti-ageing ingredient, through the extraction of a selection of algae and plants. The company is a young mother-daughter team based in Toulouse, France and are beginning to slowly introduce their product line abroad. To find out more, visit their site at www.demain-nature.fr
A few observations from the day:
- There seems to be an increasing trend in cosmetics that feature products with ingredients based on exotic plant from exotic origins.
- A lot of cosmetics are designed for anti-aging.
- I have specifically been looking for day creams that include SPF, and learned today that this combination is more difficult to achieve especially for natural and organic cosmetic companies.
- Many of the cosmetic products were created by a one or two-person team. I met a lot of creative, entrepreneurial people and found them to be quite inspiring.
- Skincare products as advertised by old wrinkly men, who ramble too much and smell of cigarettes are not very appealing.
- There were not as many International based beauty brands present as I would have hoped.
So that closes my first visit to today's Beyond Beauty Trade Expo.
No, I lied. Actually I'm going to finish today's post by gushing about my Favorite Find of The Day!
They have nothing to do with skin care. But they are super duper cool.
Introducing Paper Eyelashes by Paperself
They are stenciled paper eyelashes that you put on like any other fake lashes. The stencils are black silhouettes of frilly designs such as flowers, butterflies and even famous London attractions like the London eye. Paperself is a UK based company, created two years ago by a group of fashion and interrior designers. I spoke to one of the main creators of Paperself who humbly alluded to the use of Paperself eyelashes in the movie the Hunger Games (think paper eyelashes on Katniss Everdeen and Effie Trinket).
Paperself were offering free trial samples, so I promptly got in line, curious to see if they would look glamorous or goofy on me.
And as I write this, I am STILL wearing them. I really like how they look. You would think that they could only be taken out on Halloween, but they would fit right in at a super swanky party or a night out in the city. And they can be reused several times.

1810. After the wreck of his ships, a financially-ruined merchant (Andre Dussollier) exiles himself in the countryside with his six children. Among them is Belle (Lea Seydoux), his youngest daughter, a joyful girl full of grace. One day, during an arduous journey, the merchant stumbles across the magical domain of the Beast (Vincent Cassel), who sentences him to death for stealing a rose. Feeling responsible for the terrible fate which has befallen her family, Belle decides to sacrifice herself and take her father's place. At the Beast's castle, it is not death that awaits Belle, but a strange life in which fantastical moments mingle with gaiety and melancholy. Every night, at dinner, Belle and the Beast sit down together. They learn about each other, taming one another like two strangers who are total opposites. When she has to repulse his amorous advances, Belle tries to pierce the mysteries of the Beast and his domain. And when night falls, the Beast's past is revealed to her bit by bit in her dreams. It is a tragic story, which tells her that this solitary and fearsome being was once a majestic prince. Armed with her courage, ignoring every danger, and opening her heart, Belle manages to release the Beast from his curse. And in doing so, she discovers true love.

Byubo's Lamp of Audacity was a unique magic item that could be found within the Rainbow Monastery in the Hordelands.[1]
This magic item looked like a normal butter lamp.[1]
Only a true follower of the Padhran religion could hold the lamp without suffering harm. All others would instantly be struck dumb.[note 1][1]
Followers of the Padhran religion gained the following clerical spells if they filled the lamp with oil, lit it, and then meditated for three hours:[1]
- creeping doom
- confusion
- regenerate
- chariot of sustarre
- conjure earth elemental
- earthquake
- fire storm
- wind walk
- resurrection
- control weather
Users were only allowed to access one of these spells per day and they were required to use the spell within 24 hours or it would disappear.[1]
- ↑ Anyone who did not follow the Padhran religion would lose points of Wisdom when touching the lamp.

you still post like that??? :s awkward
you still post like that??? :s awkward
Started leveling Jewelcrafting yesterday and it's expensive as fuck. Got to lvl 347 and already broke.
Decided to try out Fire on my mage after having used Frost for a while.
Fire is so much fun, especially when up against melee-ers.
Alright, problem.
I haven't logged on to my battle.net account in at least a year, and i decided to go on it again. I try to input my password and it comes out as incorrect.
So, i try to reset my password and it states that the "email-name" combination is incorrect. I can't send a ticket because i need to be logged in and there doesn't seem to be any other way of resetting my password. Can anyone help?
call blizzard support
What's better, Reforginator or ReforgeLite
I use RFL
neither, both garbage
uninstall them and then kill you are self
Yeah I've been stuck around that level on my Shaman for both Tailoring and Engineering. It costs like 100g for a stack of Frostweave and it takes at least an entire stack to go up one level. Engineering is a bitch just because of how many different ingredients you need.
little tip for frostweave if you have an 85, go farm the risen heroes in icecrown
I've installed some addon called "Auctioneer" in an attempt to make some money. Anyone that uses the same addon got some tips, first I'm supposed to scan the auction house right?
Get tradeskillmaster and uninstall Auctioneer, anyway blackhorn died tonight, now for spine and a quick madness kill for me to clear all the content this xpac :D
heroic nos crubs allowed
You'll need to scan the auction house for a good week or two, in addition to watching it yourself, in order to truly understand your servers market. Many people poison (purposefully or accidentally) the mods ability to accurately give you values on items by selling things for absurd prices (either too low or too high).
You'll use the 'Post' tab (at the bottom of the AH window) to post your items, and make sure you scan each item you're going to sell (in the "Post" tab you can scan the individual item you're selling). Prices can change in a matter of minutes on faster moving servers, and without scanning actively the mod will have old price values. This will lead to you either selling things for too much or too little more often than being in the even ground. So always scan every item when you make an AH run.
The story of me getting Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker in one day, through pictures.
I decided I should farm MC today for a chance to earn gold and try and get the eye of Ragnaros for my Death Knight, so I could look bad ass.
That's when I killed Garr, I shat my pants.
I thought "Wow, I couldn't be lucky, I wasn't even trying to get this legendary weapon...."
Then I go to kill Baron Geddon, I shat my pants again when it dropped.
I go "No fucking way, no way this is for real!" So I decided I should kill all the bosses up to Ragnaros and try to get the quest so I can get a chance at the essence of the firelord to finish the quest.
I do that and no surprise it drops. I then buy 10 Enchanted Elementium bars and make Thunderfury.
My friend is currently ignoring me right now cause he has been farming the bindings for months ever since Cataclysm came out. Here is a picture of me runeforging it and making it look kinda bad ass.
Also here is a Screenshot of the achievement to show this is legit
Cheers! Johannës of Illidan-US
I forget how ugly Blizzards art bar is.
I hate how you need to have the DS ach to get a pug group, the same with joining a raid guild. The only guilds that want me are shitty half-social guilds that wipe on the first boss.
Catch-22 in all its glory.
well i mean give them a good reason to invite you over someone whos geared and more experienced?
Having the DS achievements doesn't mean you're more geared or experienced, any retard can do all the normal mode bosses in greens.
Any pug group the that requires the achievements is hilariously bad, all the fights are retard proof and have extremely simple concepts even the stupidest person will understand by the second attempt.
this isn't wrath, believe it or not dragon soul normal stomps on lower geared players. take it from someone working on spine heroic and several times better than you
$100 each if you get 10 people to make brand new characters and do it in full greens
$100 if you stop posting
Starting in 85 BGs with nothing but 2 ruthless gear pieces sucks, everybody has an advantage of you.
We all have to do it, its part of becoming a man
eww blood elf dk
True, but it'd be cool to actually be able to hit good damage on someone with 2.5k res.
lol just 2.5k?
I know this. Does it halter my play style? Not really. I am not the best to choose races that will benefit my classes' full potential, but I play pretty decent for a dk tank.
I also chose blood elf because it's the most human looking race in the game. More so than actual humans.
you play a fantasy based mmo and choose a race based on how real it looks (despite not actually looking real @ all...)
p.s. blood elf dk lol
As I said personal preference.
Your personal preference just happens to be wrong though.
My main used to be a hunter, has been since BC. Now I use a DK.
I am so sorry
lol saying a belf looks more human than human? you cant be serious what the fuck man
i don't know man some people do have pointy ears, incredibly gay standing stances and walk like they're frolicking through a field of flowers
Yeah, and most people don't have incredibly oversized muscles.
Female belfs are cute, female humans are a bit stocky and run in a manly way.
My main is a female human, I know what I'm talking about.
most people also arent swinging large swords fighting dragons either
Yes, but he was viewing it from the realistic view of the race, not the gameplay.
i like my dragon slaying super strong men to be thin and ladylike

Future Guide
I was wondering if anyone had any tips on becoming a guide. I am an avid fly fisher and want to take my fishing to the next level. I would love to spend a few years guiding once I'm done with school.
Re: Future Guide
My son briefly considered guide school. Everyone he talked to who was/had been in the buisness told him not to....
Re: Future Guide
Get a job at a guide camp as deck hand.
Re: Future Guide
Here is what I did, but bear in mind I was retired and had a military pension to fall back on.
Move to the area you want to fish/guide. Get a job at a fly shop that also has a guide service. Fish every chance you get. Within a year, you should get an offer to guide. Once you have a year's experience guiding, moving and getting another job guiding is a piece of cake. Chris |
Re: Future Guide
I also recommend looking in to "dude" ranches scattered across the west. These ranches are mainly set up for horse riding, but most offer fly fishing as an option.
Re: Future Guide
I have an open invite to my non fly fishing friends to take them out and teach them basic flyfishing and try to get them on fish in the holes I usaully fish.. guide school?? theres such a thing???
Re: Future Guide
Keep in mind that fly shops do guide services in two ways. 1. It can have an outfitter's license that allows it to have a bunch of guides underneath its umbrella. 2. It can use independent guides. These guides have their own business licenses, guiding licenses, and insurance bonds. Here in California, most shops use this business model. If you are going to try guiding for a shop, try to work for a shop with an outfitter's license. There will be less overhead on your part. Dennis |
Re: Future Guide
Re: Future Guide
The best training you could do is pretend to be a guide for friends.
Take them out, tell them where to cast, make them a shore lunch (cook or bring a cooler with food), and most importantly DON'T FISH! As soon as you have a rod in your hands, you're no longer going to be focusing on your "client". Keep in mind that being a guide is like being a "coach". You're no longer a player. You are coaching them to catch fish and if the day is such that the fish aren't cooperating, you're now the entertainment too. Try and teach them something new like a new technique, new casting stroke, critique their cast, etc. This way, even if they don't end up catching a fish, they come out with something. Every client is completely different too. You're going to get newbies that need full attention, you'll get the "know-it-alls" that think they're the greatest thing on earth, you'll get the humble ones who don't care about catching fish, you'll get the "know-it-alls" that don't know much, and you'll get the really good anglers who might be better than you are in one way or another. It's part of what keeps it interesting! Lastly, you don't know your client's situation. They're paying you good money, so make it worth their while. Go above and WAY beyond! They could have saved for a couple years to come fish your area. You don't know so make it worth their while. If you go out and are constantly looking at the clock and don't want to be out there, they're going to pick up on that and make their experience not what it should be. If you don't get home in time to watch your sitcom, boo-hoo, you made someone's day!...and you should probably get PVR/TiVo if you're that concerned about missing an episode. lol Guiding is a fantastic time, but it's definitely not for everyone. Best advice, hire a guide for the day and see what it's all about. Ask them a million questions. Doing this is WAY cheaper and WAY more effective than going to "guide school". ;) Nick ---------- Post added at 06:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:25 PM ---------- Quote:

Newbury-Birch, Dorothy and Bland, Martin and Cassidy, Paul and Coulton, Simon and Deluca, Paolo and Drummond, Colin (2009) Screening and brief intervention for hazardous and harmful alcohol use in probation services: a cluster randomised control trial protocol. BMC Public Health, 9 . p. 418. ISSN 1471-2458. E-ISSN 1471-2458. (doi:https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2458-9-418) (Full text available)

Official URL http://dx.doi.org/10.1186/1471-2458-9-418 |
Background A large number of randomised controlled trials in health settings have consistently reported positive effects of brief intervention in terms of reductions in alcohol use. However, although alcohol misuse is common amongst offenders, there is limited evidence of alcohol brief interventions in the criminal justice field. This factorial pragmatic cluster randomised controlled trial with Offender Managers (OMs) as the unit of randomisation will evaluate the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of different models of screening to identify hazardous and harmful drinkers in probation and different intensities of brief intervention to reduce excessive drinking in probation clients. Methods and design Ninety-six OMs from 9 probation areas across 3 English regions (the North East Region (n = 4) and London and the South East Regions (n = 5)) will be recruited. OMs will be randomly allocated to one of three intervention conditions: a client information leaflet control condition (n = 32 OMs); 5-minute simple structured advice (n = 32 OMs) and 20-minute brief lifestyle counselling delivered by an Alcohol Health Worker (n = 32 OMs). Randomisation will be stratified by probation area. To test the relative effectiveness of different screening methods all OMs will be randomised to either the Modified Single Item Screening Questionnaire (M-SASQ) or the Fast Alcohol Screening Test (FAST). There will be a minimum of 480 clients recruited into the trial. There will be an intention to treat analysis of study outcomes at 6 and 12 months post intervention. Analysis will include client measures (screening result, weekly alcohol consumption, alcohol-related problems, re-offending, public service use and quality of life) and implementation measures from OMs (the extent of screening and brief intervention beyond the minimum recruitment threshold will provide data on acceptability and feasibility of different models of brief intervention). We will also examine the practitioner and organisational factors associated with successful implementation. Discussion The trial will evaluate the impact of screening and brief alcohol intervention in routine probation work and therefore its findings will be highly relevant to probation teams and thus the criminal justice system in the UK.

The accident, in which a number of other tourists were injured, happened near the ancient city of Petra which the Prince of Wales, who is currently touring the Middle Eastern kingdom, was due to visit tomorrow.
The prince was said to be deeply shocked by the incident and was due to visit some of the injured in hospital later today.
The Britons were on the sixth day of an eight-day tour to Jordan organised by Christian tour operator Pilgrim Travel of Deal, Kent.
The tourists had spent two nights in Petra and were travelling on the dual-carriageway Desert Highway between Wadi Rum and Madaba.
Immediately after the crash, the Jordanian Ministry of Tourism mobilised helicopters to take the injured to the King Hussein Medical Centre in the capital Amman.
British Ambassador Chris Prentice said: "This is very sad news indeed. The Prince of Wales and Her Majesty Queen Rania (of Jordan) were both deeply shocked and saddened.
"It was a very serious and tragic accident. The main objective is to ensure the survivors are given the best possible treatment."
Charles and Queen Rania were in north west Jordan visiting a nature reserve this morning.
Pilgrim Travel was, in its own words, founded to "provide a unique personal service to leaders and pilgrims travelling on pilgrimages and sharing holidays to places of Christian interest".
The company arranges tours to a number of countries including Turkey, Spain, Austria, Finland, Egypt, Jordan, Israel, Ireland, Italy, Germany and Portugal.
Pilgrim Travel's Jordanian tour was from October 23 to 30 and was due to have been led by the Rev Graham Haslam.
They flew from Heathrow Airport to Amman and the tour included trips to the town of Ajlun in the north of Jordan and the Roman town of Jerash, before a journey to the ancient city of Petra, once described as the "rose red city, half as old as time".
The accommodation in the city was at the Petra Palace Hotel. On the sixth day of the trip - today - the tourists were being driven to Mount Nebo from where, in the Bible, God showed Moses the Promised Land.
The tour was then scheduled to include a visit to Madaba, home of famous Byzantine mosaics and an after-lunch drive to the Dead Sea.
Tourists had been due to stay in the Dead Sea Spa Hotel tonight, with further tours tomorrow and a flight home on Saturday.

I take it you have VAG-COM\VCDS Mike? Steps to read DPF status using VCDS Clean Diesel DPF Data Collection Thread
This is a follow on to http://forums.ross-tech.com/showthread.php?8409-2015-TDI-DPF-reset which started at http://forums.tdiclub.com/showthread.php?t=469809 from the study guides, and use, we know that two soot models are maintained, and report quantities known as measured soot, and calculated soot. the measured one varies up and down as dpf pressure changes, and is also scaled with mass air flow and temps. during drives, this quantity will decrease during passive regeneration http://www.myturbodiesel.com/wiki/dpf-obd-charts/ includes a sample of data including the measured and calculated soot values over an hour plus drive the calculated is increasing only, except as active regeneration proceeds. I have watched both on my car, using both vcds, and a polar fis + installed on my car. when either soot level is past 45 grams of soot, the ECU will not run a regeneration. (per the SSG) where the dpf is really clogged up. (say from an unrepaired severe boost leak, or extended idling without regeneration), it does have to be pulled and cleaned or replaced. this would take care of the measured soot, but the calculated soot needs to be reset http://wiki.ross-tech.com/wiki/index.php/2.0L_CR_TDI explains the process. but the steps seem to be different for the latest updated engine controller. so my question is if anyone reading this has performed the soot reset on a US/Canada EA288 2015 TDI. and related to the data collection thread (which is a great example of users sharing data and gaining information) , soot is not ash, and it seems that the oil ash volume is similar to the calculated soot level, based on use, not derived from measurements.
What ist the problem? Does the field regeneration not work? During a field regeneration, both soot levels are reset. Cheers
I've seen your thread on the Ross-Tech forum. http://forums.ross-tech.com/showthread.php?8409-2015-TDI-DPF-reset/page2

Too small
By Joe

The light pool from this lamp is suitable only for very small work on flat surfaces. It has no place in an artists studio. It's more suitable to jewelry making or small model making.

If a lighting specifier thinks about the equipment and maintenance needed for a project, lamp and ballast selection is probably one of the most important "lighting infrastructure" decisions that he or she can make. And yet, a report by the National Lighting Bureau (NLB), a nonprofit independent lighting information source, said sales of T12 lamps are still quite strong, accounting for 30 percent of all 4-foot-length fluorescent sales.
The NLB's late August 2009 release is alarming for several reasons. First, it signals the continued production of this 70-year-old fluorescent technology which, as NLB vice chairwoman Susan Bloom of Philips Lighting and Philips Lighting Electronics says in a press release, "is generally considered outdated when compared to the far more efficient T8 and T5 fluorescent technologies currently available." Second, it means that a substantial portion of the nation's buildings are not using the most efficient lighting technologies, and thus not operating at cost- or energy-effective standards. According to Bloom, industry sales data indicates that three out of every 10 4-foot fluorescent lamps sold in the United States is a T12. Finally, continued sales of 4-foot T12s indicates that many building owners and facility managers likely are not aware of the Department of Energy (DOE) mandate that will go into effect on July 1, 2010. This mandate says the magnetic ballasts most commonly used for the operation of 4-foot T12 lamps will no longer be produced for commercial and industrial applications.
According to the NLB's report, the July 2010 deadline is the final phase of a multistep process, which began July 1, 2005. At that time, ballast manufacturers could no longer sell T12 magnetic ballasts for use in new luminaires with full-wattage T12 lamps. In the next phase of the process, March 31, 2006, was the last day lighting manufacturers could incorporate those ballasts in any new full-wattage T12 fixtures. When July 1, 2010, arrives, "the manufacture of T12 magnetic ballasts solely for replacement purposes will cease."
What does this mean? Millions of T12 sockets eventually will become obsolete because the substantially reduced number of available replacement ballasts will make them harder to maintain. So building owners will have to decide when, not if, they will address how to change these fixtures. The good news is that there are a lot of efficient options available, such as replacing the magnetic ballast with an electronic ballast; modifying the fixtures to accept either a T8 or T5 lamp and its companion electronic ballast; replacing the entire fixture; or exploring a completely different lighting technology.
There also are incentives available to make the switch less burdensome to the building owner. Some are administered by individual states and utility companies. There also is the Commercial Building Tax Deduction outlined in the Energy Policy Act of 2005—if the lighting upgrade qualifies for this federal tax incentive.
However, as with all federal regulations governing lamps, there are exceptions to the deadline. The following can continue to be manufactured:
Nevertheless, the end of T12 magnetic ballast production will serve as a kind of national house cleaning when it comes to inefficient lighting technology. The DOE's Energy Information Administration's last released Commercial Energy Consumption Survey in 2003 reported 2.73 million pre-1980 buildings and 1.92 million post-1980 buildings that have been using outdated lighting technology. That data is nearly six years old; one can only imagine the 2009 numbers. In the end, switching from T12 fluorescent lamp technology to either T8 or T5 lamps has the potential to reduce lighting costs by almost half, which should make a lot of building owners happy and alleviate many of the concerns they might have regarding the impending change.

IMES-2 RNA motif
The IMES-2 RNA motif is a conserved RNA structure that was identified by a study based on metagenomics and bioinformatics,[1] and the underlying RNA sequences were identified independently by a similar earlier study.[2] These RNAs are present in environmental sequences, and when discovered were not known to be present in any cultivated species. However, an IMES-2 RNA has been detected in alphaproteobacterium HIMB114, which is classified in the SAR11 clade of marine bacteria. This finding fits with earlier predictions that species that use IMES-2 RNAs are most closely related to alphaproteobacteria.[2] IMES-2 RNAs are exceptionally abundant, as twice as many IMES-2 RNAs were found as ribosomes[1] in RNAs sampled from the Pacific Ocean.[2][3] Only two bacterial RNAs are known (6S RNA and transfer RNA) to be more highly transcribed than ribosomes.
The IMES-2 RNA secondary structure contains four stem-loop structures and one pseudoknot.
