First fish and wildlife laws in Indiana
Conservation-related departments that eventually would become the Department of Conservation (precursor to today's DNR):
Forestry fact: the southern part of Indiana maintained more forested areas during this time of clearing the land than did northern Indiana. The reason had to do with the glaciers that traveled slowly across the northern part of the state, flattening the earth and leaving deposits of rich, loamy soil conducive to farming. The unglaciated south, with its less favorable soil, remained largely forested.
The forerunner to today's Indiana State Museum was a single case in the board room of the state geologist. In 1870, a $100 appropriation was set aside for this case, which would hold specimens of Indiana birds and mammals. This "museum" was later expanded to an entire room built onto the east side of the old statehouse. To the room were added the state geologist's collection of minerals, fossils, shells and other objects of natural history. When the current statehouse was built, the museum was moved to a location on the first floor.
Frenetic deforestation in the name of agriculture. Indiana's original 23 million acres of forestland dwindled to less than two million acres by 1900. Results:
This unfettered pillaging of the state's natural resources was beginning to raise alarm in some by the late 1870s.
Indiana was the leading hardwood producer in the nation.
Clark State Forest established as a nursery and forest research facility.
State Entomologist established in through Purdue University. It becomes a state office in 1907 in order to control San Jose scale, which threatened Indiana orchards.
Indiana's first Arbor Days were April 26 and Oct. 25.
Charles C. Deam was appointed Secretary of the State Board of Forestry. In his first three years, he created a forestry-related curriculum for schoolchildren.
The state forestry board made its first appearance at the Indiana State Fair.
March 13, 1916
Richard Lieber began work to procure three areas of Indiana (in Brown County, at Turkey Run and at Indiana Dunes) to become state parks in celebration of the 100 anniversary of Indiana's statehood. Lieber's committee attempted to purchase what is now Turkey Run State Park at an auction conducted by the family, but was out-bid by the Hoosier Veneer (lumber) Company.
May 12, 1916
The Owen County newspaper editor suggested McCormick's Creek to his legislator as a possible state park.
Late May 1916
On behalf of the state park committee, Lieber purchased McCormick's Creek State Park (as a celebration of the state's centennial) with his bid of $5,250.
Nov. 11, 1916
Lieber's committee settled with Hoosier Veneer Company for the purchase of Turkey Run State park at $40,200.
Dec. 16, 1916
McCormick's Creek and Turkey Run state parks were dedicated.
March 1919
Governor Goodrich signed into law a bill creating the Department of Conservation. Col. Richard Lieber, whose efforts over many years culminated in this legislation, was named the first director of the department. It included five divisions:
Dec. 1919
Lieber appointed Charles Parrish the department's first "Chief of Information."
Game wardens' monthly pay was increased to $100.
Oct. 27, 1920
Clifty Falls State Park was presented as a gift to the state by several residents of Madison. This small group had spent a year raising money to buy the 570 acres at Lieber's suggestion.
The Indiana Classified Forest Act set in motion a voluntary program to conserve and protect hundreds of thousands of acres of private forestland.
May 17, 1921
Jennings County turned over a portion of Muscatatuck Valley named Vinegar Mills to the state for use as a state park. Vinegar Mills was later re-named "Muscatatuck" because of the historic significance of that Indian name, meaning "winding waters." A brick house was converted into a small inn, and tents with wooden floors built for additional accommodations. Just 86 acres, this finely forested park became a popular picnic area and stopover between Madison and Indianapolis, but never was developed further. Several years down the road, Muscatatuck was reclassified as a state game farm, then became a county park. Muscatatuck State Park was the first state park that required no financial assistance of any kind.
The Division of Engineering was added to the Department of Conservation. One of the division's first jobs was to construct a wooden trestle over Newby Gulch at Turkey Run State Park. Other tasks were to build roads, bridges, buildings and other structures on Department of Conservation property.
Brown County State Game Preserve was opened to the public under the jurisdiction of the Division of Fish and Game. A ranger is assigned.
April 1926
Indiana suffered its first loss of game wardens in the line of duty. Wardens William Nattkemper and William Peare, although strong swimmers, drowned in the Wabash River north of Terre Haute while battling choppy waters.
The Division of Forestry was given the power to detect and suppress fires on private land.
The state-run tree nurseries were producing more than a million seedlings each year.
Brown County commissioners turned over to the Department of Conservation just over 1,000 acres adjacent to Brown County State Game Preserve for Brown County State Park. Development was slow, however, because the highway to the park was not yet finished. On May 22, 1932, Abe Martin Lodge and several cabins were dedicated at Brown County State Park. Later, the game preserve lands were sold to the Dept. of Conservation and added to the state park.
March 9, 1925
Four historic properties were placed under the jurisdiction of the Department of Conservation:
The first tract of land was bought for the area that would become Indiana Dunes State Park. The park opened to the public the following year.
July 17, 1926
The property that would eventually become Pokagon State Park was dedicated as a state park. Steuben County purchased the land. The finest of the state park inns (at that time) was built there.
Spring Mill property was transferred to the Department of Conservation. Soon after, the 295-acre tract of land, including the grist mill and other buildings that were part of the thriving community of the early 1800s, was purchased from a cement company for one dollar.
A naturalist program was established for Indiana State Parks and implemented at Dunes, Turkey Run, Clifty Falls and McCormick's Creek.
Indiana State Parks began to concentrate to a much larger degree on camping.
Clay, Greene and Sullivan counties donated to the state the land that would become Shakamak State Park. The name, which means "waters of the long fish," comes from the Delaware Indians' moniker for the Eel River.
Mounds State Park was acquired.
Civilian Conservation Corps established.
Paul McNutt became governor and placed the Department of Conservation under the jurisdiction of the Department of Public Works. Richard Lieber was named head of the Department of Conservation Division of State Parks and Lands and Waters.
July 15, 1933
Richard Lieber resigns from his post.
Early 1930s
The land that became Ouabache State Park was acquired and established as the Wells County State Forest and Game Preserve. It was designated Ouabache State Recreation Area in 1962, and in 1983 was renamed Ouabache State Park.
Educational Bureau established within DNR. (Precursor to current DNR Division of Public Information and Education.)
February 1934
First issue of Outdoor Indiana magazine sent free of charge in to members of conservation clubs and other outdoor enthusiasts.
Fire Wardens were appointed, and the first Fire School was held.
Legislature granted to the Commissioner of the Department of Conservation the power to set seasons and bag limits.
USDA Forest Service established Vallonia Nursery.
An act was passed changing the name "game warden" to "conservation officer." Two years later, the legislature gave conservation officers full police powers.
Forest Fire Fighters' Service organized in Indiana.
By this time, Indiana State Parks were fully self-supporting through gate fees.
Land along the Tippecanoe River was transferred by the National Park Service to the Department of Conservation for use as a state park. Part of that land became the Winamac Fish and Wildlife Area, and part of it became Tippecanoe River State Park.
The National Park Service deeded to the state the land that is now Versailles State Park.
Nov. 4, 1944
Indiana Flood Control Commission appointed by Governor Schricker (Anton "Tony" Hulman, Jr. was elected Chairman).
March 7, 1945
Flood Control Act signed into law by Governor Gates. Addressed development in flood hazard areas; created Water Resources Commission.
The land that would become The Shades State Park was purchased and held by a holding company until a public subscription campaign ("Save The Shades") could raise enough money to buy it.
Whitewater Memorial State Park was established as a living memorial to those who served in World War II.
Cooperative Forest Management Act made federal funds available for forestry practices on private lands.
The Flood Control and Water Resources Commission was organized into two major branches: Engineering (included Hydraulic Data, Project Planning, Engineering Geology, Surveying and Mapping, Drafting and Accounting sections) and Operations (included Permits and Regulations, Local Project Development, Construction and Special Investigations sections).
Natural Resources Act passed by General Assembly and signed by Governor Branigan, creating the Department of Natural Resources. The following agencies were included under the DNR umbrella:
At the creation of the DNR, the Department of Conservation's Water Resources Division merged with the Flood Control and Water Resources Commission. All water-related issues fell under the new division's jurisdiction except water quality, which was still under the State Board of Health Stream Pollution Control Board. It eventually passed to IDEM.
Laws enacted since 1965 regarding flooding:
Indiana State Museum moved from its first floor quarters in the Statehouse to the Alabama Street location.
Indiana General Assembly passed the Nature Preserves Act, establishing the Division of Nature Preserves under the DNR. The division was charged with the acquisition, dedication, management and protection of significant natural areas throughout the state.

Facebook rant leads to prison sentence
(Cleveland) - A man who had been arrested for drunken-driving has been sentenced to 17 months in prison for subsequent Facebook rants against police and judges.
27-year-old William Bement was sentenced after pleading guilty to attempted retaliation.
The North Olmsted resident was given probation on a drunken-driving conviction on Feb. 5. That's when investigators say he took to Facebook to post comments such as "Stop shooting up schools and start shooting cops in courthouses."
Another said, "Kill your local judges!!!!!!!."
Bement told the judge he was just venting and never intended for anybody to feel threatened. He claims he did it for "shock value."
A prosecutor contends someone else could have read the postings and acted on them.

George Condo's Jesters Opens January 28 at Gallery Met
On Monday, January 28, the Arnold & Marie Schwartz Gallery Met will open George Condo'sJesters, presented in conjunction with the new Metropolitan Opera production of Rigoletto. Condo has created 9 original ink-on-paper drawings of jesters for the show, which will be on display through May 11. The Met's new production of Rigoletto, Verdi's opera about a court jester whose life unravels after his insults go too far, will premiere January 28.
Condo has been a major figure in the contemporary art world for more than 30 years. His paintings, drawings, sculptures, and prints have come to define the genre known as "artificial realism," which juxtaposes the traditional techniques of painting with a realist's view of the man-made world we live in today. Holland Cotter of The New York Times praised the 2011 New Museum retrospective of Condo's work as "a tour-de-force of stylistic multitasking and figurative variety...within the world of Mr. Condo's portraits, nothing is 'just' anything."
Jesters will be Condo's first solo show at Gallery Met, though he has contributed well-received works to two previous group exhibitions. His painting of Rosina from IL Barbiere di Siviglia was part of Heroines, the gallery's inaugural show, and he also contributed a painting to 2009'sSomething About Mary, a series of portraits of Mary Magdalene presented in conjunction with a new Met production of Tosca.
"I've been painting clowns since 1985-my favorite archetypal American hero-loser," Condo said of Jesters. "The jester has to entertain you and at the same time repel you. He has a multiplicity of qualities, and I thought that would give me a great opportunity to work with different planes that recede and come forward architecturally, like the planes and perspectives within a single portrait."

Los Angeles police announced Tuesday they arrested four suspects who fled to a Las Vegas hotel after the slayings of four people at an illegal boarding house in Northridge. | Previously: Northridge slayings spotlight unlicensed boarding homes | Northridge shooting leaves 4 dead | Photos
The announcement came as city inspectors discovered multiple city code violations at the house at 17441 Devonshire St. and as relatives began publicly identifying some of the victims.
The four suspects were arrested Monday without incident at the Silverton Casino Hotel in Las Vegas, the day after the crime was discovered. One man was held on suspicion of murder and two women and another man, all in their 30s, are suspected of being accessories.
"I'm extremely happy to report to you that these suspects are off the street and we've made some progress," Police Chief Charlie Beck said at an afternoon press conference at police headquarters downtown.
Beck said his "investigators have worked around the clock since the murders and were able to develop information and leads that pointed them in the direction of four individuals implicated in the heinous crime that took the lives of the four victims."
Beck praised the "brilliant detective work" in the case but offered few details of the investigation.
He also would not say what the motive might have been.
Ka Pasasouk, 31, of Los Angeles - who has prior convictions for methamphetamine possession and auto theft - was arrested on suspicion of murder, and 30-year-old Howard Alcantara of Glendale on suspicion of robbery and aiding a felon after the fact.
Two Los Angeles women, 30-year-old Donna Rabulan and 33-year-old Christina Neal, were held for aiding a felon.
All four were being held Tuesday night in the Clark County Detention Center under fugitive warrants. They had court hearings for extradition scheduled for Thursday morning in Nevada.
The bodies of two women and two men were found about 4:30 a.m. Sunday in the yard of the Devonshire Street house. Neighbors called police and reported hearing screaming and gunshots.
Beck called the crime scene a "very grisly tableau."
The dead women appeared to be in their 20s. One man was in his 30s, and the other was in his 40s, said Cmdr. Andrew Smith, an LAPD spokesman. No weapon was found at the scene.
The coroner's office has indefinitely delayed releasing the victims' names, citing a "security hold" requested by police. Beck declined to name them Tuesday and said releasing too much information too early could hurt the case.
"This will all be made public as the prosecution unfolds," the chief said.
But relatives of at least two victims have publicly come forward, identifying two of the slain as Robert Calabia of Eagle Rock, and Amanda Ghossein, the mother of a 1-year-old daughter.
Some of those relatives visited the scene of the slayings on Tuesday and spoke to reporters.
Visitors also added to a growing memorial to Ghossein, who would have turned 25 Tuesday.
"I was hoping when I woke up today this was all going to be one big nightmare," her younger sister wrote in a letter, placed carefully alongside birthday balloons, red roses and candles.
"It's crazy. Just last week we were talking about the fashion business we were going to open together," the note said.
A photograph of Ghossein was placed on a poster board, which included the young woman's daughter, Luna. Those who left notes to Ghossein promised to take care of the little girl.
"People need to know that she's a mom, a loving daughter, a sister, a cousin, a niece," Ghossein's cousin, Alyssa Virigni, told KABC (Channel 7).
"I don't understand who can do this. Who can kill someone not knowing if they have a family or not?"
Rolina Calabia, the sister of victim Robert Calabia, sobbed on camera as she shared her grief with reporters.
"I can't believe my brother's not here anymore," she said. "He's always there for me. Why my brother?"
The investigation continued Tuesday as members of a police crime scene unit combed the property where the bodies were found and an area across the street, using metal detectors and other equipment.
Investigators said the victims were visiting friends at the home when they were confronted and fatally shot by the suspects, but what connection they had to the suspects or a specific motive for the shooting remained unclear Tuesday.
At least two of those arrested have criminal records. Pasasouk was arrested in Northridge in September and charged with possession of methamphetamine.
He was convicted in 2010 of grand theft auto with a prior conviction and in 2005 for possession of methamphetamine. Neal was convicted in 2011 of theft and giving false information to a police officer.
Relatives of the four suspects could not be reached Tuesday evening.
Sixteen detectives from Robbery-Homicide worked over a 43-hour period to develop leads in the case, Beck said.
After they determined the suspects were possibly heading to Las Vegas, the LAPD and the FBI sought help from Las Vegas police. They quickly pulled together a task force of Las Vegas and Henderson police and special agents with the FBI to track down the suspects, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported.
Las Vegas police said the task force determined the suspects were driving a black Audi with no license plates and were possibly staying at the Silverton, the newspaper reported. Authorities located the Audi at the Silverton and determined that the suspects had checked into the hotel Sunday night.
Las Vegas police told the newspaper that search warrants had been issued for the Audi and the suspects' hotel room, and Los Angeles police interviewed the suspects.
On Tuesday, city inspectors found illegal plumbing and electrical work at the Northridge house, as well as new interior walls, all done without permits, said David Lara, a Department of Building and Safety spokesman. They also found two illegal exterior structures evidently used as living space, one attached to a garage and a smaller one, Lara said.
The inspectors issued two orders to comply to the homeowner Yag Dutt Kapil, which will require him to either undo illegal work or get after-the-fact permits. They also posted notices barring anyone from entering the exterior structures and advised Kapil to avoid using parts of the house itself, Lara said.
It was unclear to inspectors how many people had been living on the property, Lara said, because no one except the homeowner was present when they arrived Tuesday. The city Department of Housing was working to find shelter for some of the people.
Lara said it's uncertain what fines Kapil could face.
City Councilman Mitchell Englander, who went inside the home Sunday, said it appeared to be an unauthorized boarding house. An ordinance aimed at fighting such illicit group homes has been stalled for years amid opposition from advocates for disabled people and immigrants.
Englander described the house as filthy, with mattresses and electrical cords scattered about and the smell of feces and urine. He said about a dozen people appeared to have been living in the house, with one room accessible only by a window.
In interviews with the Daily News, Kapil said it is not an illegal boarding home, but that many people not related to him lived there. They left Sunday, he said.
The 78-year-old Kapil, who has remained in the house, said he is bedridden with diabetes and heart disease and did not hear the gunfire Sunday.
On Tuesday, the property's landscape appeared well cared for, although an old television could be seen on the front lawn, as well as a door. Curtains and blinders were pulled over the windows.
The Department of Building and Safety received minor complaints about the home in 2003 and 2009 that were resolved. In 2009, someone reported a garage had been illegally converted to living space, but an inspector found that was not true, Lara said, so the case was closed.
Police said it was not known as a problem house. And inspectors had not visited the house since 2009 until police called them Sunday.

Eddie Money called The KiddChris Show on WEBN in Cincinnati this this week and ... well let's just say he's not Kenny Loggins' biggest fan.
Money went on to speak about how Loggins ripped him off ... and how he wants to punch him! Eddie Money's daughter lost to Kenny Loggins' son on the MTV show "Rock the Cradle," and called Loggins' son a "bum".
Money says of Loggins, "How smart can a guy be that he divorces his wife and marries his therapist. Give me a break, will ya."
When he was asked about a possibly Celebrity Boxing match between he and Kenny Loggins, Money stated: "I'll tell you the truth, I'll knock him out in twenty seconds."

Same here on a vm with KDE 32 and 64 bit
I tested on both the KDE 32 bit and the 64 bit version and when I Try to shut down from the terminal by typing "poweroff" Backtrack 5 seems to hang. I can only see the backtrack wallpaper. So I don't see any error messages. I waited like half an hour but it doens't react.
Anyone else experiencing this problem ?

Same here on a vm with KDE 32 and 64 bit
Yup, it happened to me a few times (KDE 32bits). One time pressing escape showed up the terminal, and then enter shut it down (don't know why...). Another time (after installation to hard drive) it did the same but this time ctrl+alt+del showed me the terminal, with a buggy screen half-background/half terminal. I couldn't do anything though, and I had to manually power my PC off. Since then, it shut down correctly every time.
Running both KDE and GNOME BT5 flawlessly. Thank you !
Pressing enter seems to do the trick. Thanks comaX
Edit:While waiting after the poweroff command, if you hit F4, you can see why its waiting
Please remove the disc and close the tray (if any) then press ENTER:

Yeah the wallpaper appears in front of the message that says to press enter after removing the disc.
Just figured it out too.

I had the same issue. Confirmed. I was confused and did a Ctrl C after a while and it powered off completely.
But not sure what it actually did...
Yeah i had the same problem .. i just did a hard power off but i will try just hitting the enter key or control c and see if those work too.
wh1t3 fang
To me it felt like it was waiting for a KB entry before powering down.
I have not tested more than twice, however in both cases it powered down after some key entries...
Again, I dont dare say what I exactly did.. it was a bit like a 5 year old playing StreetFighter IV..
button bashing FTW..
If you add "noprompt" at the end of your boot line in the syslinux.cfg file, then the question to remove media will be bypassed.
I have Backtrack 5 KDE installed to a usb drive, and for me it was to:
Then addCode:vim /cdrom/syslinux.cfg
Code:append initrd=/ubninit file=/cdrom/preseed/custom.seed boot=casper persistent text splash vga=791-- noprompt

Defying the Stereotype
Me: Make me a sandwich?
That was my Facebook status recently, and it led to a whole debate. People were saying that I should be in the kitchen, making food (should've expected that one) and I responded by telling them that a woman's place is not in the kitchen, barefoot and pregnant. I mean, I'm a med student for Pete's sake!
Yes, I want to be a mother and yes, I could use some cooking practice, but that doesn't mean that's all I should do. So my housemates and I eat two minute noodles and use those ingenious ready made meals. So what? We don't have the time or the energy to slave away in front of the stove for hours on end. Hats …

Veterans die waiting on 'secret VA list': Ex-Doctor
(NEWSER) – The Veterans Affairs hospital in Phoenix, Arizona, has secretly kept around 1,500 sick veterans waiting for health care—and at least 40 of them died waiting, CNN reports. Former Phoenix VA doctor Sam Foote says managers there found a way around the rule that VA hospitals should see patients in 2 to 4 weeks: "They developed the secret waiting list." Hospital staff would take down information on veterans seeking appointments, he says, and move that data to a secret electronic list. Their names only reached the official list when a spot opened up for them—that way, Washington never knew about the horrid delays.

Jackie Evancho Brings Songs of the Silver Screen to McCallum Theatre, 11/16
Pint-sized opera diva and 2010 "America's Got Talent" star Jackie Evancho will perform "Songs Of The Silver Screen" at McCallum Theatre for one night only on Friday, November 16, at 8:00pm. When Jackie Evancho submitted a video to YouTube to compete for a slot on "America's Got Talent," she could never have predicted that a push of the "send" button would eventually send her to the top of the entertainment industry. Jackie's unique, gorgeous soprano has won her millions of fans and her recordings have dominated the music and DVD charts. Her warmth, charm and poise have helped her gain the support of legendary music producers like David Foster. Billboard Magazine namedJackie to their list of music movers-and-shakers under the age of 21 because her "spellbinding, operatic vocals possess a power and poignancy that often moves listeners multiple times her age to tears."
Jackie's trip to the top of the charts almost didn't happen. She auditioned twice for "AGT" in person in Philadelphia and the producers passed on her. "I saw a video with host Nick Cannon saying they were also doing YouTube auditions," recalls Jackie's father Mike. "We decided to put something up and then we forgot about it."
But the "AGT" viewers who watched Jackie's audition submission became instant fans. She earned the most votes and captured the twelfth contestant spot among the slate of "AGT" for the show's fifth season. Her first on-air performance, in which she sung Puccini's "O Mio Babbino Caro," delighted the judges, who were generous with their praise. "I can't believe that from this tiny body, this huge mature voice you have," said Sharon Osbourne. Piers Morgan said, "This is one of the most extraordinary performances that I've ever seen on 'America's Got Talent'." Howie Mandel simply stated, "You're an angel. You're a superstar."
Remarkably, Jackie was 10 years old at the time, but her long-held desire to perform, sparked after seeing the film version of The Phantom of the Opera when she was seven years old, convinced her parents to let her take a chance at stardom. And Jackie has shown everyone that she has the brilliant talent needed to succeed.

Senate Immigration Bill Clears Procedural Hurdle
(Washington, DC) -- The Senate's immigration reform bill has cleared an important hurdle. Opponents tried to block the measure from moving forward but fell short in a procedural vote, 82-15. Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell voted to move forward but warned that major changes need to be made in the legislation, starting with boosting border security. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is pushing for final passage before the July 4th recess.
The sweeping Senate bill is a bipartisan product of a so-called Gang of Eight. The heart of the measure provides a path to citizenship for roughly eleven million undocumented immigrants in the U.S. Critics are calling it amnesty. Dozens of amendments will be debated and final passage remains an uncertain prospect in the deeply divided Senate. Prospects are even murkier in the Republican-led House.

back home in Conakry
April 28th 2008
I just got back to Conakry after a one month long digging road trip through Ghana, Togo and Benin. For the entire time I was followed around by NY documentary film maker Leigh Iacobucci. Highlights were interviews with El Rego, Gustave Bentho (Poly Rythmo), Danialou Sagbohan and a Ghanian DJ legend who shall remain anonymous for the time being. My favorite moment was when Gilles, the son of Gnonnas Pedro performed his fathers Afrobeat bomb "okpo videa bassouo" which was included on the LIFE IS A GAME mix.
I promise to post up a trailer as soon as possible.
New mixes should be up later this week

Venezuelan fishery collapse linked to climate change
By Steven Powell, email@example.com, 803-777-1923
Even small increases in temperature from global warming are causing climatology shifts harmful to ocean life, a new study in the Proceedings of the National Academies of Science shows. Modest changes in temperature have significantly altered trade wind intensity in the southern Caribbean, undercutting the supply of key phytoplankton food sources and causing the collapse of some fisheries there.
"Global warming isn't occurring uniformly over the earth's surface – it's been much greater at the high latitudes in the Northern Hemisphere than it has been for the low latitudes," said co-author Robert Thunell, a University of South Carolina researcher. "Because of that, some people have said, 'Well, we're probably not going to see much biotic change at low latitudes,' but we show nicely in this paper that even when the climatological changes are relatively modest, they can have a big impact on the marine ecosystem."
The paper is the product of nearly 15 years of observations in a highly collaborative NSF-funded effort between researchers at USC, Stony Brook University, the University of South Florida and several Venezuelan institutions. Since late 1995, monthly observations of a range of variables, from nutrient and chlorophyll concentrations to meteorological readings, have been collected at a single location off the coast of Venezuela to establish a long-range record.
The sea surface temperature was found to have increased somewhat, about 1 degree Celsius, over the decade-and-a-half. But the effect on the sea life was much more pronounced: beginning in 2006, the population of microscopic diatoms, dinoflagellates and coccolithophorids plummeted, along with the local harvest of sardines.
The team thinks the drastic change in ecology results from climatology shifts that go beyond a small temperature increase.
"The intertropical convergence zone is where the northeast and southeast trade winds converge," said Thunell, of the Department of Earth and Ocean Sciences in USC's College of Arts and Sciences. "It's basically the thermal equator, and it doesn't sit right on the geographic equator because it's a little bit warmer in the north. That's because there's more land mass in the northern hemisphere.
"And because of that extra land mass, the northern hemisphere is actually heating more than the southern hemisphere through global warming. We've proposed that this thermal equator, over the last 15 years, has moved a little bit farther northward. So the strength of the trade winds now over our region of study has decreased."
That diminished wind is cutting the food supply for some fish, the team concludes. The upwelling of ocean water, which is a source of nutrients for phytoplankton, depends on the mixing that winds provide. Less wind thus means less mixing, fewer nutrients for phytoplankton, and fewer phytoplankton to sustain the fish population.
"That's a big deal. The plankton near the surface of the ocean are the base of the food chain," Thunell said. "This climatological change is driving a change in the food web structure, which we're now seeing affect the fisheries."

Treatment of Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma in Children, by Type and Stage
In general, all children with non-Hodgkin lymphoma are treated with chemotherapy, but the treatments differ depending on the type and stage of the lymphoma. This treatment is intense and might cause serious side effects, so it is very important that it is given in a children's cancer center, especially when it is first started.
Lymphomas in children (especially Burkitt lymphomas) tend to grow very quickly and may already be quite large by the time they're diagnosed, so it is important to start treatment as soon as possible. These lymphomas usually respond well to chemotherapy, which can kill large numbers of lymphoma cells in a short period of time. A concern is that this can cause tumor lysis syndrome, a side effect in which the inner contents of the dead cells enter the blood and can cause problems with the kidneys and other organs. Doctors try to prevent this by making sure the child gets lots of fluids before and during treatment, and by giving certain drugs to help the body get rid of these substances.
It is assumed even children with early stage (stage I or II) lymphomas have more widespread disease than can be detected with exams or imaging tests. Because of this, local treatments such as surgery or radiation therapy alone are very unlikely to cure them. Therefore, chemotherapy is an important part of treatment for all children.
Treatment of lymphoblastic lymphoma
Stages I and II: In general, treatment for these early stage lymphomas is similar to the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Chemotherapy is given in 3 phases (induction, consolidation, and maintenance) using many drugs. For example, the BFM regimen uses combinations of many different drugs for the first several months, followed by less intense treatment with methotrexate and 6-mercaptopurine in pill form for a total of about 2 years. Shorter and less intensive treatments, such as the chemotherapy combinations called CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone) and COMP (cyclophosphamide, vincristine, methotrexate, and prednisone) have also been used.
Chemotherapy, usually with methotrexate, is also given into the spinal fluid (known as intrathecal chemo) for at least 4 doses, each separated by a week. This helps kill any lymphoma cells in the brain or spinal cord.
The total length of treatment may be as long as 2 years.
Stages III and IV: The treatment for children with advanced lymphoblastic lymphoma lasts for about 2 years. Treatment is typically more intensive than for earlier stage lymphomas. It is given as 3 phases of chemotherapy (induction, consolidation, and maintenance) using many drugs. This is very similar to the treatment of high-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). For more information, see Treating Childhood Leukemia.
Intrathecal chemotherapy is also given into the spinal fluid to kill any lymphoma cells that may have reached the brain or spinal cord. In some cases, radiation therapy may be given to the brain and spinal cord as well.
Treatment of Burkitt and Burkitt-like lymphoma
Chemotherapy is the main form of treatment for these lymphomas. Studies are now being done to determine whether adding a monoclonal antibody such as rituximab to chemotherapy will make treatment more effective.
Stages I and II: Treatment of these lymphomas may include surgery prior to chemotherapy if the tumor is in only one area. If there is a large abdominal tumor, it is important that as much of it as possible be removed. After that, chemotherapy is given.
Several different chemo drugs are used. The length of treatment ranges from about 9 weeks to 6 months. Most pediatric oncologists feel that the 9-week treatment is adequate if all of the tumor is removed with surgery first.
Chemotherapy into the spinal fluid is needed only if the lymphoma is growing around the head or neck.
Stages III and IV: Children with more advanced Burkitt lymphoma need more intensive chemotherapy. Because these lymphomas tend to grow quickly, the chemotherapy cycles are short, with little rest between courses of treatment.
For example, a treatment plan known as the French LMB protocol regimen alternates between different combinations of drugs every 3 to 4 weeks for a total of about 6 to 8 months. Other similar treatment regimens are the German BFM protocol and the St. Jude Total B regimen.
Chemotherapy must also be given into the spinal fluid.
Treatment of large cell (including anaplastic) lymphoma
Chemotherapy is the main form of treatment for these lymphomas. Studies are being done to determine whether adding other drugs to chemotherapy might make treatment more effective.
Stages I and II: Treatment for these lymphomas usually consists of chemotherapy with 4 or more drugs given for around 3 to 6 months. For diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, treatment may include surgery in addition to chemotherapy. The usual chemotherapy regimen contains a 4-drug combination of cyclophosphamide, vincristine, prednisone, and either doxorubicin or methotrexate. (These are known as the CHOP or COMP regimens.)
Chemotherapy is given into the spinal fluid only if the lymphoma is near the head or neck.
Stages III and IV: Large cell lymphomas don't often reach the bone marrow or spinal fluid, but if they do they require more intensive treatment.
Chemotherapy includes several drugs given over 9 to 12 months. Many doctors treat advanced large B-cell lymphomas as they would Burkitt lymphoma (see above).
Intrathecal chemotherapy is given into the spinal fluid as well.
Current clinical trials are focusing on the length of chemotherapy, which drugs are important in treating large cell lymphoma, and whether the different types of large cell lymphoma can be treated similarly. Newer drugs that might help treat anaplastic large cell lymphoma, such as brentuximab vedotin (Adcetris) and crizotinib (Xalkori), are also being studied.
Treatment of recurrent lymphoma
Generally, if the lymphoma comes back after the first therapy, it is much harder to treat. When possible, more intensive chemotherapy, usually including a stem cell transplant, is recommended. This is often done in a clinical trial. Clinical trials of newer forms of treatment may also be an option.

Detroit, MI (SportsNetwork.com) - Jarome Iginla was credited with the game- winner with 6:28 left in overtime, as the Boston Bruins scored three unanswered goals en route to a 3-2 win over the Detroit Red Wings in Game 4 of their Eastern Conference quarterfinal series from Joe Louis Arena.
With just over 6 1/2 minutes left in the extra session, Dougie Hamilton threw a shot on net from just above the right circle that tipped off Iginla's stick in the circle before deflecting in off Danny DeKeyser's leg in front to give the Bruins a commanding 3-1 lead in this best-of-seven series.
"It was a pretty fortunate goal, fortunate bounce," Iginla said of his game- winner. "An ugly one, but that seems to be how a lot of those are in OT."
Boston trailed 2-0 early in the second, but Torey Krug potted a power-play goal just past the midpoint of the frame before Milan Lucic lit the lamp 1:15 into the third to tie the tilt.
Tuukka Rask turned aside 35 shots for the Presidents' Trophy winners, who will look to close out the series when they welcome the Red Wings to Boston for Game 5 on Saturday.
Pavel Datsyuk and Niklas Kronwall tallied a goal and an assist apiece for Detroit, which saw No. 1 goaltender Jimmy Howard scratched just before the start of the game with the flu.
Jonas Gustavsson, making his first career playoff start, stopped 37 shots in the setback. Detroit captain Henrik Zetterberg returned from a 30-game absence and recorded one shot in just over 19 1/2 minutes of ice time.
"It is steep, but we know it's tough to close out a series," Zetterberg said of the Red Wings finding themselves in a do-or-die situation heading into Game 5. "We just have to go and win a game and bring it back here."
The Red Wings entered the game 0-for-9 on the power play in the series, but wasted little time capitalizing on their initial power-play opportunity on Thursday.
After Boston's Justin Florek received a four-minute double-minor for high sticking 10:56 into the tilt, Datsyuk won the ensuing offensive zone faceoff back to the right point for Kronwall, who rifled a slapper that sailed over the glove of a screened Rask to make it 1-0 Red Wings at 11:00.
Kronwall and Datsyuk helped double Detroit's lead 4:27 into the second after Kronwall came up with a loose puck along the left boards in the Boston zone and sent the disc to the front of the net.
The centering feed was tipped in front and knuckled high in the air behind the net, where Kronwall gloved it before setting up Datsyuk's one-timer from the low right side to make it 2-0 early in the second.
Boston sliced the margin in half on the power play at 10:14 of the middle frame, as Patrice Bergeron won an offensive zone faceoff back to the right point for Krug.
With room to work, Krug skated toward the high slot before firing a heavy slapper that tipped off a defender's stick and beat Gustavsson high to the glove side to bring the Bruins within 2-1.
Lucic evened things early in the third after he chipped the puck into the Detroit zone off the right boards. Carl Soderberg won a race to the disc behind the net and quickly slid a no-look feed out front for Lucic, who pounded the puck past Gustavsson to tie the tilt at 1:15.
Game Notes
Zetterberg, who had surgery to repair a herniated disc on Feb. 21, last played for the Red Wings on Feb. 8 ... Boston head coach Claude Julien coached his 100th career playoff game behind an NHL bench ... Boston went 1-for-2 on the power play, while Detroit finished 1-for-4 on the man-advantage ... Hamilton had two assists for the Bruins.

SAN BERNARDINO - Redlands East Valley and Summit aren't the basketball team's they used to be.
This was clear during REV's 53-40 win over Summit at Wednesday's opening round of the San Bernardino Kiwanis boys basketball tournament at San Gorgonio High School.
REV, a solid contender for the last few years but not a Citrus Belt League champion since 2005, is a team on the rise and its seasoned roster seems ready to make some noise.
Summit, a state tournament qualifier two years ago and a league champion last season, is struggling to live up to that success. Redlands (9-3) resumes Kiwanis tournament play today with a 5 p.m. game against Barstow. Summit (3-9) faces Pacific in a 2 p.m. game. Both games will be at San Gorgonio High School.
"I feel we are a pretty good team," REV coach Bill Berich said. "We beat a team by 10 that I feel we should have beat by 20. So that is a little disconcerning."
It was the third win in four games for the Wildcats.
"We have a lot of seniors on this team," Berich said. "I feel we should win the close games and beat the teams we are supposed to beat."
It was the fourth straight loss for the Skyhawks.
"It's tough and its hard to watch," Summit coach John Viencek said. "We played hard but we just haven't been able to finish."
Both teams were a bit sluggish in the first half. They were a combined 4 of 26 from the floor in the first quarter.
"We had a rough first half," REV's Eli Chuha, who finished with 13 points. "But we got it together and pulled it out."
REV was in control but led only by 18-16 at the half.
"It didn't feel good out there," Berich said. "It was the day after Christmas. It was 3:30 in the afternoon. We were a little flat."
Summit missed their first seven shots of the game and made just one of their first nine in the second quarter. And they turned the ball over nine times in the first half.
"We had a lot of opportunities, a lot of shots but just couldn't make them time after time," Viencek said. "That kind of sums up the year for us so far."
The game remained close in the second half but REV never seemed threatened by the Skyhawks.
"We talked about applying pressure and going man to man at half time," Chuha said. "We thought we could win like that. It worked and it got our heads back into the game."
Summit managed to tie the game at 18 with a bucket by Zaquiel Bermudez in the early going of the third but REV responded quickly an 11-3 run - the first five points off a bucket, layup and a free throw by Chuha.
The Wildcats maintained the pace the pace in the late going, getting two 3-pointers from Julius Humphrey to go up 47-35 before cruising to the win. Jarrett Ellis and Terrance Williams led REV with 16 points each. Summit's Corey Robinson led all scorers with 16.

- Option 2: Treatment for 2 face areas for $888 (rrp. $22,000)
- Option 3: Treatment for 3 face areas for $1,488 (rrp. $28,000)

- 1x pre-treatment consultation

- Eye
- Chin
- Cheek
- Nasolabial folds
- 1x Green Peel Plus face peeling treatment
Treatment detail:
The High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) EVO treatment concentrates ultrasonic waves to a single point to penetrate deep into the dermal and fat layer. The transfer of heat energy causes the Superficial Musculo-Aponeurotic System (SMAS) to contract, and this further causes the surrounding tissue and muscles to tighten, achieving a face lifting effect. A relatively quick procedure, HIFU EVO does not cause damage to surrounding tissue with no downtime required. As a result, patrons may expect improved skin health due to a boost in collagen production, which is effective in combating the signs of aging.
Green Peel Plus face peeling treatment
The Green Peel Plus face peeling treatment makes use of a vacuum instrument that gently exfoliates skin without causing friction, and is suitable for sensitive and inflamed skin.
La Vanda
Backed up by US FDA approval and European CE certification for its use of medical grade equipment, La Vanda takes beauty and wellness to greater heights. Its brightly-lit centre in Sino Plaza welcomes patrons, offering an array of services and treatments from facials for different skin types to relaxing massages and laser hair removal.

Emily Murgatroyd | February 18, 2010
By Emily Murgatroyd • Thursday, February 18, 2010 - 13:12
The echo chamber is alive and well and currently bouncing Phil Jones' bastardized quote all over the global media. Recap - Phil Jones speaks to the BBC about climate change. The Daily Mail selects part of his response, stripping it of its context and using that selection to argue that Prof. Jones is backtracking on the likelihood of global warming.
Then every half-wit, oil company shill and agenda-driven journalist in the world picks up the Mail's manipulation and uses it as if it's real.
Here is the ACTUAL exchange:
BBC: Do you agree that from 1995 to the present, there has been no statstically-significant global warming"
Prof Jones: Yes, but only just. I also calculated the trend for the period 1995-2009. This trend (0.12 per decade) is positive, but not significant at the 95% significance level. The positive trend is quite close to the significance level. Achieving statistical significance in scientific terms is much more likely for longer periods and much less likely for shorter periods.
And here's how the accuracy-challenged press is using the quote:
"… in a weekend BBC interview, he (Jones) dropped a bombshell. He acknowledged there's been no statistically significant warming since 1995.
"Hello? When other people say that, they're called deniers."
Phil Jones' actual answer and the answer that is being trumpeted by the media are dramatically different. Jones, with patience and exactitude, described the condition that would justify the term "statistically significant" (95% certainty) and explained that - on an issue like climate - such certainty is not appropriately sought from short time spans. He went out of his way to ensure accuracy. The Mail, and it's cheering section, seem to be going out of their way to obscure accuracy.
This is an outrage. It's wreaks of shoddy trickery - backstopped with just enough conditional language to absolve the offending journalists of responsibility for straying from factual, fair and un-biased reporting. It reaches into the realm of intentional misinformation.
It would be fine if Prof. Jones had uttered his quote without a carefully considered context. It might even be fine if people like Globe and Mail columnist Margaret Wente understood what "statistically significant" means in this context. (She either missed that month in First Year Statistics - or she just doesn't care.)
A five year old knows that anything taken out of context can be contrived to support a point - and this point is painfully, purposefully and unforgiveably contrived.
I'm not posting this to argue about the science; I'm here to point the finger at journalists and ask them at what point did they decide to check their conscience at the door. At what point, Ms. Wente, is it okay to ignore the responsibility to ensure that what you write accurately reflects what your subjects intended to say?
JR Wakefield replied on Permalink
I'm here to point the finger at journalists
Well, DUH!!! You just realized this? Skeptics have been complaining about journalists for decades. And now when they don't toe the party line your upset? Now that's rich.
Excuse me, but ...
I've seen journalists work entirely in the same manner to propogate the AGW theory. Headline banners that speak to doom and gloom from one isolated scientific study after another, or simply a journalist's response to an opinion can generate hysterical headlines.
Here, for example, we see comments such as "could" and "if" used in the body, but the headline projects a more definite conclusion. And the picture, completely unrelated conveys a sense of dramatic immediacy:
Here, Polar Bears are going to start eating each other (!):
And here, suddenly, every weather event happening simultaneously, is reason enough to head for the hills:
I bring these up simply to provide levity to the situation. Yes, I am skeptical of the disasterous claims made by AGW advocates, but I am more concerned with the way in which science is covered by the press and how misreporting always seems to make one side or the other look good or bad.
Wente's on form
This piece by Margaret Wente is perfectly typical for her– trumpeting the latest denialist trope and ignoring everything else. Pure disinformation masquerading as informed discussion. See http://rexandmargaretmustgo.blogspot.com/for a response– though I couldn't address every fallacy and distortion in that column…
Philip Machanick replied on Permalink
tell the deniers we've had enough
I set up a petition at http://www.petitiononline.com/clim4tr/petition.html to support the right of climate scientists to work without harassment – and misquoting them in this sort of stupid way is part of a general pattern of attacking science. By all means, attack the theory by finding flaws, or proposing a better theory. But this sort of dishonesty does not advance the cause. It only delays the day when we have to do something.
The purpose of the petition? At very least, let's show people like Phil Jones that they have community support, even if we don't cut through to papers like the Daily Fail.
If you agree, sign the petition and tell others. Post to Twitter, and invite others to retweet. Post it on mailing lists, Facebook, etc.

Gunter weighs in
Lorne Gunter has also jumped on the "no significant warming since 1995" bandwagon. What a surprise - but it gets worse - check out all his other lies:
An interesting question is where did Wente and Gunter get their alternate version of reality? The Daily Mail? Marc Morano? WattsUpWithThat? It's a sure bet that neither actually bothered to read the original interview. http://deepclimate.org/2010/02/16/morano-sends-lies-from-uk-times-and-daily-mail-around-the-world/
Richard Steckis replied on Permalink
Jones must be kidding
Either Jones knows nothing about statistics or he is trying to mislead. You can easily have statistical significance with little data just as you can easily have no statistical significance with large amounts of data.
The volume of data does nothing to improve significance if the data itself is not correlated well with the condition being observed.
His statement is WRONG WRONG WRONG.
How suspicious should we be?
Deep Climate has some further thoughts about where the question about warming since 1995 came from.
So it seems possible to me that a specific trap was deliberately laid for Phil Jones.

Planning to have my tooth extracted but I'm breastfeeding
Will it be okay to undergo tooth extraction even if you are breastfeeding? I'm a bit skeptical about it because the dentist will probably use medicines which I don't know if it's okay for me to take since I'm breastfeeding. Will it affect my baby if I breastfed him after the process?

There are many pain medications that are considered safe for breastfeeding moms and babes. Think of all the pain meds that some women take during the early postpartum period and labor. I think that more harm is likely to occur from neglecting a rotten tooth. You can develop a serious, even life-threatening infection. Furthermore, bacteria from the mouth can and frequently is, passed from mother to baby- putting your child's dental health at risk as well.

Hi NewMumAfter7,
I've been in your shoes, and had to have a tooth extracted when I was breastfeeding my infant. I remember being at a restaurant, and I bit into a piece of soft salmon, and my tooth just crumbled. I immediately contacted my dentist and he said that the tooth needed to come out. (This could have been avoided had I been taking some high quality nutritional supplements before and during my pregnancies).
I was concerned about the affects of the numbing medication on my baby (what she would get through my breast milk) so I pumped and tossed for 24 hours. I pumped and stored as much as I could before the procedure, and then I breastfed my baby in the parking lot, right before I went in to the dentist's office.
My husband offered her a bottle after the procedure and she took it better from him than she did from me (if I was holding her, she wanted the breast). I remember that the evening/night was hardest for us, so I ended up pumping, dumping, and then offering an "empty" breast for her to suckle.
It was only 24 hours and we got through it. Alternatively, I believe that most numbing medications are supposed to be okay for babies, but I just like to avoid as much of that as possible in my children. Ask your dentist if the medication is safe for a breastfeeding mum and see what he/she says.
You just have to do your best, but it is important to have the tooth extracted as soon as possible if it could be producing bacteria that could cause health problems for you and your baby.
Hope this helps.
Warm regards,

Today was just another Monday here at the GRC…well, kind of. We devoured our breakfast of French toast and sausage that energized us for an exciting snorkel and dive trip out to Gaulin Reef. However, instead of the typical snorkel entrance from the shore, we boarded a boat and headed North towards Gaulin Cay, where we jumped right in off of the boat to explore a new reef. Only half of our group was lucky enough to experience this trip today, while the rest stayed back and worked on group projects (the other half will venture out on the boat tomorrow). Some of the exciting creatures we saw were eels, Hawksbill turtles, barracudas, a variety of parrotfish, and a HUGE southern stingray that could have swallowed us whole! On the way back to the island, we stopped at a nearby Cay that was home to thousands of nesting birds that flew just inches from our heads.
When we arrived back to the GRC, we ate one of our favorite lunches of pizza, pasta salad, and peaches. In the afternoon, we continued back to our daily routine of research in the field while some of us headed to Monument, Snapshot, Bonefish Bay, and North Point. Our research is coming along quite well, and most of us will be finishing our last day of data collecting tomorrow afternoon.
After showering up, we went to dinner and back to the lab to finish the last of the group presentations on coral. The night concluded with some studying, a visit to the snack shop, and heading to bed to rest up for the next big day out in the field.
Only 4 more days until you get to see our shining, tan faces! Bahamas <3
