40 Weeks Pregnant + 4 Days Update!
First of all, I'm not in labour! I thought that given I'm still waiting around for something to happen, I would do a little update for you. So I'm now 40 Weeks Pregnant + 4 days. I'm overdue! Although my original due date was May 1st and I'm definitely starting to think they should have never bought it forward :)
Here's a shot of what I look like at 40 weeks pregnant (I'm wearing my new earrings from my little ASOS splurge!):
Yes – huge big! I do feel the size of a house. A large house. I'm not too concerned about my weight gain (famous last words) but everything is definitely starting to get a bit cramped in there.
Symptoms-wise, I'm feeling bored. Is boredom a symptom? I'm definitely trying to make the most of the quiet rest time though so I shouldn't complain about that.
I haven't dropped at all – you can see from my pic how high I'm carrying the baby – I was exactly the same last pregnancy. In fact I only dropped a teeny bit then right at the end. So no 'lightening' and relief from reflux for me – for now at least.
I had my midwife appointment yesterday and she says the baby is very low in my pelvis but still facing to my side so I think back labour is definitely on the cards.
She offered to do a membrane sweep but I declined – not looking for any invasive action at this point.
However, as my hospital does have a policy of not allowing any more than 10 days overdue, she did book me in for a 'just in case' induction next week. So please keep your fingers crossed I have the baby before then :)
An induction isn't the end of the world of course but it would obviously mean no home birth and no water labour or birth. I will, of course, do whatever I need to do to ensure my baby births safely – the baby will always come first no matter what.
It was funny because last night, after she had said the baby was low, I could literally feel just how low it is – like I wouldn't be surprised if it dropped out at any point. That might be quite nice, as long as a caught it in time!
It's very uncomfortable though and painful when I walk. I'm also getting a really achy back high and mid way. Not low down so not contractions.
The baby was also making some crazy big movements last night when I was sat watching TV – full blown tumbles and somersaults – to the point where I couldn't sit up any more and had to go to bed. Is it normal for babies to be SO energetic at this stage?
So that's me for now – waiting, waiting, waiting! I did do my gel nails today so feel marginally better about my appearance.
I don't feel anxious about the possibility of induction – what will be, will be. However, if you have any tips on encouraging the baby to make an appearance or your experiences of being induced, do let me know as I'd love to be as informed as possible.
Watch this space and wish me luck!

|Signing SAML assertions within a signed message
|Wed, 11 Oct 2006 01:24:23 GMT
Hi, I have been trying to get signed SAML assertions into a message that I then add headers to, and sign using WSS4J 1.5. I am using Axis 1.x (1.2.1 and 1.4) and with WSS4J 1.5 I am using XML-Security 1.3.0 and OpenSAML, also I have java 1.4 and as a result I have Xerces 2.8.0 and xml-apis 1.3.03 in my endorsed directory. ***The Problem*** is that when I try to pass a message containing a signed object to the handlers that add the wss security headers and sign the whole message, I break the integrity of the internal signed object. The exact moment this happens seems to be when an javax.xml.rpc.handler.Handler is invoked on the message to insert the wss headers. I have come across some postings that seem to point to the same problems I am having: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/ws-wss4j-dev/200608.mbox/%3c44D email@example.com%3e and http://email@example.com/msg01874.html Like in the postings, I tried to modify enableNamespacePrefixOptimization but it prevented my signed SOAP messages from validation. After many attempts, I have cobbled together a working demo. The basic strategy I have been using is to sign the assertion and message at the same time in a handler (extends org.apache.axis.handlers.BasicHandler) right before sending out (read: end of chain). Then I verify both message and internal assertion before the wss headers are modified at all. I have had some success with this, but I am limited by this solution. Additionally, I would like an easy way to use the OpenSAML libraries to have the objects sign themselves and then not have to worry about them being disrupted by my SOAP engine. ***Request for Input*** I am thinking this use case might be a lost cause in axis1.x. However if anyone could recommend further solutions; including other technologies (other than axis1.4) that have been proven to pass signed messages (and signed parts within signed messages) along to SOAP without "mucking" with the XML I would really appreciate it. At this point I am assuming this is an Axis1.x issue and not from wss4j although if anyone has more insight on this I would be open to it.

Square brackets define a "class" of characters. Meaning that they match
any character that belongs to that class.
The "^" as the first character inside the square brackets INVERTS the
definition of the class. Thus, [^"] means "any character EXCEPT double
The asterisk means "0 or more occurrences of the thing that comes
before". So, [^"]* will match any string that does NOT contain a double
quote -- that is, it will match everything from the point it begins
until it finds a double quote (the double quote will "stay outside" of
the match, so to speak).
The parentheses assign whatever matched the string inside to a variable.
So, the second example will find a string that ends just before the next
HTML tag, and assign it to a variable. Then, in the "replace" field, you
can use a token (like $1) to insert back that string.
This is explained in the "Help on Regular Expressions" in the NoteTab
Help menu. There are also lots of places around the Web where you can
find more about regular expressions.

Sounds like you might be getting bitten by regex "greedy" mode.
Though I'm not sure how it would get from first to last unless the html
code is all in one line. You can control whether a . (dot) can span more
than one line by putting either (?s) -span multiple lines or (?-s)
-span ONLY one line at the beginning of your regular expression. If
neither is specified, (?-s) is implied. So:
* (?s).*
o will find from the first  to the LAST 	 in the
entire file (greedy mode)
* (?s).*?
o will find from the first  to the NEXT 	 even if its
on the next or following lines. (non-greedy mode)
Your original question was:
> How do I strip the "class" contents of any and all tags, as below:ie. class can appear in other tags than just  and (I assume) any
> change this:
> [whatever]<
> /td>

other attributes are to be left unchanged as is - CORRECT?
I *think* this should work:
^!replace "\bclass=".*?" >> "" rwsai
In English: match from a word boundary (\b) followed by literal class="
to the very next occurrence of quote (.*?") and replace everything
matched by nothing.
If this doesn't work and/or you can't make it work with a tweaking you
can guess at .... Could you take one old file and get it to the state
before you wanted to apply this fix and manually change it to what you
want the result to be and zip the two files together as before.html and
I created a folder in our yahoo-group files:
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/ntb-html/files/HelpMePlease/ where
you can post the zip.

Scabies is a skin condition that can be treated by prescribed oral medications, lotions and creams. This rash consists of intense itching and painful blisters.
Scabies is an itchy condition that occurs from the burrowing of an eight-legged mite.
Time Frame
Symptoms can build momentum over two months, and most products will eradicate scabies within a week to two weeks.
Scabies is a rash on the skin that includes red papules and blisters that may have blood encrusted on them. Small burrows from the mites may appear as thin lines.
The papules, blisters and burrows can be found on numerous parts of the body.
The torso, finger webs, wrists, elbows and buttocks are parts of the body that
can be affected. The genitals, nipples and feet can be affected in adults, while the
face and neck can be affected in infants.
Scabies cannot be transmitted by normal, daily contact such as shaking hands or
sharing clothes. Scabies is most frequently transmitted by sexual contact.

Increases in food, housing, transport and taxes have easily outstripped pay rises and left many families struggling.
The figures, in a Tory report, piled more pressure on Gordon Brown.
They came as business leaders warned that economic growth is set to slow, hitting Government finances.
The Confederation of British Industry downgraded its growth estimates to just 1.8 per cent for 2008, a drop from 3.1 per cent in 2007 and well below Government forecasts.
While Ministers say inflation is running at two per cent a year, the Tories said that for most families the real rise in the cost of living is far more.
The party's dossier said gas and fuel prices have gone up ten per cent in the last month alone and the price of everyday staples is soaring.
Since Mr Brown took over as Prime Minister nine months ago, the price of butter is up 37 per cent, a dozen eggs up 34 per cent and a loaf of bread up 28 per cent. The price of petrol has risen eight per cent in the same period.
Housing costs now swallow up more of people's spending than at any time since records began in 1987.
Overall, rising inflation means household spending on basics rose to an average of £388 a week in January, a five per cent rise year-on-year. At the same time, the Tories claimed, real incomes are falling.
High inflation and low earnings growth have cut the buying power of people's salaries.
The party's analysis says real earnings have fallen by £215 in the last two years, equivalent to a £15 salary cut each month.
The figures are the latest in a series pointing to a worsening situation.
Earlier this month, the price comparison website uSwitch predicted that the average family would be left £800 a year worse off by increases in household bills this year.
Tory leader David Cameron says Labour's tax rises are adding to the burden, with the latest Budget adding £110 a year to every family's tax bill.
Alcohol saw the largest tax increases for a generation, while nine out of ten motorists can expect to pay more.
Driving costs - servicing, maintenance, petrol and car tax - have now increased at twice the rate of inflation since Labour came to power in 1997, according to the Tory report.
Running an average car like a Ford Focus, driving 10,000 miles a year, is up from £1,409 to £2,197.
Rail fares have also risen sharply and bus fares are up 37 per cent since 1997.
Council tax has doubled under Labour, so it now takes three weeks wage - a week more than in 1997 - to pay off the average bill.
The Tory report highlights research by Asda and the Centre for Economics and Business Research which suggests that the average family had 3.2 per cent less disposable income in January this year than in January 2007.
While bills went up by £27 a week last year, average earnings went up just £22 a week.
The South East has been worst affected because people there spend a larger part of their income on transport and food than those elsewhere.
The Tory dossier comes as the major parties launch their local and mayoral election campaigns.
Mr Cameron's decision to stress the economy is high risk, since he has repeatedly refused to make firm commitments to reduce the tax burden.
Yesterday's document repeated his party's pledge to share the proceeds of growth in the economy between tax cuts, public spending and reducing Government debt.
Scroll down for more...
The Tories promise, however, to end the 'couple penalty' in the tax credit system, giving 1.8 million families an extra £2,000 a year; give local people the power to block excessive council tax rises and abolish stamp duty on properties of £250,000 or less.
Mr Cameron said: "I think all governments lose touch and this government really has lost touch. It keeps talking about how low inflation is. I drove back from York last night and filled up the car and I think it cost me £12 to £15 more than the last time.
"The family shop is costing more and I think the government just doesn't understand that. They don't seem to be showing any sympathy and understanding to people and through their Budget, they're actually making it worse."
Labour insisted the Tories proposals would have no impact on the cost of living and accused them of "posturing".
Yvette Cooper, Chief Secretary to the Treasury, said: "With increases in world fuel prices and a global credit squeeze, the most important thing for families is economic stability here at home to keep overall inflation and interest rates low and employment high.
"David Cameron's proposals for billions of unfunded tax cuts would take terrible risks with stability."
A Treasury spokesman said last night: 'Because of changes made by this Government, such as tax credits, four out of ten families pay no net tax.
"Personal tax and benefit measures introduced since 1997 mean that by April 2010, households will be on average £1,250 better off in real terms and families with children £2,000 better off in real terms."
"The current tax burden is well below peaks reached in the 1980s."
• Mr Brown will launch Labour's local election campaign today with more details of his pledge to extend neighbourhood policing. He will say: "People need to see their policemen and women in their communities to feel safer, so this government has ensured that every community in England will have its own dedicated neighbourhood police team patrolling the streets, contactable by mobile phone, and in touch with local people."

Principle 2 – Information is managed digitally
Principle 2 is focused on digital assets and processes.
By 2020 agencies will transition to entirely digital work processes. This means that business processes including authorisations and approvals are completed digitally, and that information is created and managed in digital format.
Digital information and processes enable greater productivity and efficiencies through direct engagement between the public and government. Digital information provides opportunities for process improvements and innovation, and is more useable and can be shared more easily at less cost.
1 January 2016 Target
Under the Digital Transition Policy all information created digitally by government agencies from 1 January 2016 is to be managed in digital formats with records created digitally from this date and eligible for transfer to the National Archives accepted in digital formats only.
If your agency did not meet the 2016 target, you will need to implement mitigation strategies to manage and protect your digital business information and report these strategies to the National Archives through the Agency Service Centre.
What success looks like
Digital continuity will be achieved if by 2020:
- agencies have entirely digital work processes and keep information in an accessible digital form.
- where there are benefits for agency business, information in analogue formats is migrated to digital format.

The Federal Court is the first Australian court to implement electronic court files (ECFs). The transition from paper to electronic court files has created a streamlined flow of digital documents and delivered significant time savings and a more efficient working environment. The process was implemented using off-the-shelf technology customised to suit the Court's requirements. Further developments have enabled interoperability with the Court's legacy systems, and delivered efficiencies in the retention, disposal and storage of documents through the use of metadata. Implementation of ECFs streamlined the way in which the Court operates allowing users to focus on resolving disputes as quickly, inexpensively and efficiently as possible.

The residential real estate market is a diverse and ever-changing component of both our national economy and our day to day life. This is due to the development of inmproved building practices, availability of better building materials, adoption of new building standards, and implementation of evolving government polices. Greater consumer awareness of environmental issues, and concern over rising energy costs, is moving us towards a "greener" society. Homes that are more energy-efficient may command more money than their less energy-efficient counterparts, in some cases increasing in value up to $20 for every $1.00 saved in engergy costs.

I've lost the person I loved the most in all the world, second only to my husband. My dad died just before Christmas in 2010 and his birthday is approaching this month.
I fell apart at first, and had to take a month off work as I couldn't function and got physically ill from being run down. Then I thought I had got back to normal, I've been working fine, been able to smile and enjoy life - albeit with the odd bad day when all I wanted to do was curl up somewhere quiet and far away from everything and everyone. I had felt like I was thinking abut it less often and being affected by it less frequently.
But now his birthday is approaching and we're preparing to scatter his ashes on the day. And to be honest, ever since Father's Day in June I have felt like my world is closing in on me again. It's like I'm going through grief all over again.
He died suddenly, but putting the shock to one side, I tell myself to just be thankful to have had such a wonderful father, and that he was in good spirits on his final day, that I was there and that the last words he ever heard from me were "I love you". And I am so grateful that it came about like that, but knowing all that is not enough to stop me feeling like someone is punching me in the stomach every day again. And it's hard to talk to anyone about it because I don't want to be a moany person, and I don't think people will understand how I seem to be going backwards after I appeared to be getting on with my life so well. Is it normal to feel like this after 8 months?
Work is really busy but I just can't handle the stress like I used to, but I feel like I can't say anything to my boss as it'll make me look weak and I don't want to have a shadow affecting my career.
I don't feel like there was anything left unsaid between me and him, and I've very few regrets about our times together, and I feel like he probably did go at the right time for him, so there's nothing holding me back except the big hole that's in my life and the overwhelming grief that's come back again. I just don't know what to do to get myself better.
Dad, so much of who I am and the values I have I owe to you. You set a standard of kindness and generosity that is unsurpassable. I could always count on your advice. You always made me smile, even when you were being stubborn, you had a twinkle in your eye. You were one of a kind and I just miss you being around. I love you so much.

Shanghai: A medical student at a prestigious university in Shanghai was sentenced to death on Tuesday after he was convicted of murdering his roommate with laboratory poison in April last year.
Shanghai No.2 Intermediate People's Court convicted Lin Senhao, a post-graduate at Fudan University, of intentional homicide in the first trial verdict, Xinhua reported.
Lin used N-Nitrosodimethylamine, a deadly chemical compound he took from the university laboratory, to contaminate a water dispenser in their dormitory March 31 last year.
His roommate, Huang Yang, drank from the dispenser April 1 and died of organ failure days later despite doctors' efforts to save him.

WTF: Vegas Nightclub tells BACHLORETTE PARTY to bring NO "WHALES or HIPPOS" to the club??
ICYMI: Vegas club to bachelorette party: no "whales or hippos" allowed http://t.co/GpB6sAuzJr
— Jezebel (@Jezebel) July 17, 2014
Want to see an example of a club - or it's promoters - losing it's damn mind?
Check this out.
And while we all know that clubs intentionally hold lines, and hand pick who they want in and whatnot at different times.... to so blatantly discriminate and openly stereotype people - specifically women who want to DRINK and whatnot - is ridiculous.
At any rate... this club seems to be quite douchey and you should take notes on 'em.... and remember this next time you're in Vegas to throw down.

Art is anything you can get away with.
— Marshall McLuhan, The Medium is the Massage, 1967
Someday when I have some time, I'll have to write up why Marshall McLuhan not only continues to matter, but matters more now than ever. In the meantime, I thought I would share some of my readings into McLuhan's views on art, a subject near and dear to my heart. I'll start with his view on pop art:
When the industrial and mechanical environment first enveloped the old agrarian world, Nature became an art form for the first time. So did all the old crafts, the yokel, and even savage. The parallel, earlier, was the uplifting of the hunter to a snobbish, aristocratic status when the agrarian world took over as environment and the old hunting grounds became the "content" of new technology. When the industrial and mechanical age became environmental, the arts and crafts acquired a new snobbish, amateurish quality. They became the content of the mechanical age and were accorded the usual upgrading of status. When the electric technology enveloped the mechanical one, we were plunged into the world of machine as art form. Abstract art and functional architecture took over as mimetic repeats of old environment. Pop-Art is part of the same technological fugue.
The message and impact of the new environment is quite at variance with the content of new technology. The content is always the old technology, just as the novel was the content of the film when it was new. Now as film is processed by TV, the story line of the book form tends to disappear. The movie form now begins to acquire the nonnarrative structure of a Symbolist poem of a century before. There is thus no direct means of environmental awareness to be won from the consumer approach to such "art" activity. Indirectly, it is possible to construct the characteristic bias of the new environment from the current stock responses...— Marshall McLuhan, Art News, May 1966
McLuhan then advanced into the art as a means to understand technology's impact upon society:
If men were able to be convinced that art is precise advance knowledge of how to cope with the psychic and social consequences of the next technology, would they all become artists? Or would they begin a careful translation of new art forms into social navigation charts? I am curious to know what would happen if art were suddenly seen for what it is, namely, exact information of how to rearrange one's psyche in order to anticipate the next blow from our own extended faculties.— Marshall McLuhan, Understanding Media
The artist can correct the sense ratios before the blow of new technology has numbed conscious procedures. He can correct them before numbuess and subliminal groping and reaction begin. If this is true, how is it possible to present the matter to those who are in a position to do something about it? If there were even a remote likelihood of this analysis being true, it would warrant a global armistice and period of stock- taking. If it is true that the artist possesses the means of anticipating and avoiding the consequences of technological trauma, then what are we to think of the world and bureaucracy of "art appreciation"? Would it not seem suddenly to be a conspiracy to make the arust a frill, a fribble, or a Milltown? If men were able to be convinced that art is precise advance knowledge of how to cope with the psychic and social consequences of the next technology, would they all become artists? Or would they begin a careful translation of new art forms into social navigation charts? I am curious to know what would happen if art were suddenly seen for what it is, namely, exact information of how to rearrange one's psyche in order to anticipate the next blow from our own extended faculties. Would we, then, cease to look at works of art as an explorer might regard the gold and gems used as the ornaments of simple nonliterates?
At any rate, in experimental art, men are given the exact specifications of coming violence to their own psyches from their own counter- irritants or technology. For those parts of our selves that we thrust out in the form of new invention are attempts to counter or neutralize collective pressures and irritations. But the counter- irritant usually proves a greater plague than the initial irritant, like a drug habit. And it is here that the artist can show us how to "ride with the punch," instead of "taking it on the chin." It can only be repeated that human history is a record of "taking it on the chin."
Emile Durkheim long ago expressed the idea that the specialized task always escaped the action of the social conscience. In this regard, it would appear that the artist is the social conscience and is treated accordingly! "We have no art," say the Balinese; "we do everything as well as possible."— Marshall McLuhan, Understanding Media
The reference to Emile Durkheim is particularly telling. Durkheim was a 19th century sociologist who wrote about such topics as the effects of industrialization upon society, including the division of labor upon the nature of meaningful and rewarding work and how a lack of meaning led to suicide. (I covered his concept of "anomie" in an earlier entry.) Without going into too much detail here, Durkheim labelled the values and behavior accepted by society as "normal" as the "collective conscience". (Jung reformulated this for his conception of the "collective unconscious." Which is where the NYC group Unconscience:Collective got its name.) I believe McLuhan is paraphrasing the concept into "social conscience." Anyway, occupations, according to Durkheim, falls into two types: homogenous (low skilled and generic) and heterogenous (specialized professionals). In this case McLuhan seems to be saying that artists define the social conscience, which, at first, appears to be outrageous. After all, just about every avante garde artist is labelled as deviant. And yet, without a short time, their work is mainstream. Go figure.
I think of art, at its most significant, as a DEW line, a Distant Early Warning system that can always be relied on to tell the old culture what is beginning to happen to it.

Location: European Biological Control Laboratory2011 Annual Report
1a. Objectives (from AD-416)
Objective 1: Explore for natural enemies of insect pests (e.g., olive fruit fly, Lygus bugs), and wood borers (e.g., longhorned beetles and emerald ash borers) and other pests as identified as high priority targets by the ARS Office of National Programs. • Sub-objective 1A - Discovery and collection of potential biological control agents for service to other laboratories that provide further development of the natural enemies. • Sub-objective 1B - Quantitative measurements and observations that lead to new documentation on biology of potential biological control agents and their hosts. • Sub-objective 1C - Genetic studies that enhance the chance of success with new biological control agents. Objective 2: Identify, colonize and evaluate the most promising natural enemies and ship them to U.S. cooperators. Results of laboratory (including genetics and behavior) and field studies will be used to improve the ability to predict key factors for application to future programs. • Sub-objective 2A – Identification, colonization, and evaluation of efficacy of biological control agents. • Sub-objective 2B – Documentation of life table parameters and biological characteristics. • Sub-objective 2C – Genetic parameters as predictors of successful biological control.
1b. Approach (from AD-416)
Biological control through the introduction of natural enemies continues to be one of the most effective, cheap, and environmentally safe solutions to problems created by introduced pests and invasive species. We propose to take advantage of the experienced staff, biologically strategic location, and excellent facilities of the European Biological Control Laboratory in Montpellier, France, and its satellite laboratory in Thessaloniki, Greece, to discover potential biological control agents, characterize them genetically, evaluate their efficacy, and describe relevant aspects of their bionomics. Scientific output from these efforts will include taxonomic, genetic, and biological descriptions of important species in the Palearctic and Ethiopian regions. The target species of these efforts will include the olive fruit fly, vine mealybug, the European grapevine moth, the diamondback moth, the olive psyllid, Lygus bugs, and Asian longhorned beetle. In addition, we will use model species (the southern green stink bug and the tarnished plant bug) to test the hypothesis that the success of parasitoid wasps as biological control agents can be predicted by examining genetic parameters.
3. Progress Report
We shipped lygus bug parasitoids collected in France to US cooperators; Moroccan parasitoids were mass reared for field release in DE, CA and NM by ARS and NJDA cooperators who reported evidence from sites in DE that establishment is occurring. We obtained samples for our project on retrospective genetic analysis of lygus biocontrol programs. We initiated research to improve methods of rearing olive fly parasitoids and planned new exploration in Africa and Asia for natural enemies and studies of their nutritional ecology. SCA 0212-22000-022-06T with the French INRA supported research on olive fly parasitoids. INRA assessed releases in France of an exotic olive fly parasitoid we obtained from Africa and examined biological differences in geographic strains of the wasp. This agent has been released by California and Israel cooperators. Evidence of establishment in CA was obtained this summer. We concluded a study with INRA to screen wasps for microbial associates that influence its biology, and began to develop molecular bar codes for a second genus of olive fly parasitoids which may include cryptic species. Barcoding will enable further evaluations of this genus as biocontrol agents. Our research was extended to Albania by a USAID grant supporting exchange of visits to improve fly biocontrol in Albania. Cooperative research in France and Italy on citrus and Asian longhorned beetles with Italian agency MINOPRIO (0212-22000-024-8T) determined the geographic distribution of a host-specific egg parasitoid of CLB in Northern Italy. We are working to develop a lab rearing technique for this parasitoid. US and Chinese colleagues helped us plan exploration for egg parasitoids of ALB in NE China and egg parasitoids of CLB in SE China during the coming year. We compared efficacy of several strains of a vine mealybug parasitoid obtained from foreign exploration. We showed the Israeli strain of the wasp, already introduced in CA, is more effective than a French strain. We collected a French population of a Russian wheat aphid parasitoid for a US cooperator. American Farm School MOU 0212-22000-023-11M provides our Greek substation with lab and office space, facilitating exploration and field work in the Balkan region. A new project (0212-22000-024-XX) involves DOD, university and Greek agencies in a monitoring program in northern Greece to determine the distribution of regional sand fly and mosquito populations and monitor West Nile virus. We provided first evidence of WNV enzootic activity in Greece and field tested a housefly kill device. MOU 0212-22000-023-12M with Benaki Phytopathology Institute (Athens) supports research on mutual-interest targets including studies of local strains of olive fly pathogens. MOU 0212-22000-022-07M with the Joint Genomic Center (Sophia University, Bulgaria) will facilitate exchange of ideas and cooperation in genomics; an ARS-JGC workshop is planned. We provided an entomopathogen strain for genome sequencing by Charles Sturt University (Australia) to enhance use of pathogens as locust biocontrol agents.We also barcoded genetic samples of French and Australian land snails for a CSIRO snail management project.
4. Accomplishments
1. Establishment of a new exotic olive fly natural enemy in California. Since the discovery of olive fruit fly in California a decade ago it has become the most important olive pest and threatens the economic viability of the U.S. olive industry. ARS EBCL conducted explorations for effective natural enemies of the fly in Africa and Asia. A number of agents obtained by EBCL have been evaluated by cooperators in California during the past several years, and several of these species have been permitted by APHIS for field release. This year, after several consecutive years of releases, surveys documented the establishment of one of these agents, the parasitic wasp PSYTTALIA LOUNSBURYI. This is the first successful establishment of an exotic natural enemy of olive fly from the fly's native range in Africa into new regions where olive culture has spread. We anticipate that this parasitoid wasp will eventually cause significant reductions in olive fly populations as it spreads throughout California.
2. Monitoring program provides first evidence of West Nile Virus enzootic activity in Greece. The Department of Defense funds ARS to develop solutions to insect problems that result in illness among deployed military personnel. A joint ARS EBCL, DOD, University of Florida and local Greek civic agency program was launched to determine the spatial and temporal distribution of major regional sand fly and mosquito populations in northern Greece. This survey detected the first evidence of West Nile Virus enzootic activity in Greece prior to the onset of any human cases, and the government of Greece was notified to take timely precautions and implement mosquito control measures. This project provided evidence showing that the virus successfully overwintered in the region.

Science on the edge
Today is your last chance to go to an exhibition featuring innovative projects by local and foreign students, including a three-dimensional (3-D) device, music gloves and a rotating teahouse.
The 38th Joint School Science Exhibition (JSSE) is being held at the Central Library in Causeway Bay.
Under the theme 'Fantasy-Amusement in Science', students from 28 local secondary schools and five universities, along with their counterparts from Kuwait, South Africa, China and Taiwan, came up with creative ideas which can bring happiness to people.
Although they are just concepts at present, a panel of judges who evaluated the projects said they could become reality one day.
At the opening ceremony last Friday, Secretary for Environment, Transport and Works Sarah Liao Sau-tung encouraged students to take science seriously.
'Science is an interesting and rewarding career. You turn your dreams into reality through dedication, imagination and innovation,' said Dr Liao, who was on the JSSE preparatory committee in 1968 and 1969.
'Louis Pasteur [a great 19th century biologist] said: 'Luck favours the prepared mind.' You should put in more effort and take your science seriously.'
The local secondary school teams booked their place in the exhibition after their proposals were accepted by the judges.
The top three prizes went to St Paul's College, Tai Po Sam Yuk Secondary School and St Francis Xavier College, respectively.
St Paul's also took the best Web design award. Their winning project, Free-Dimensionalism, comprises a set of devices which takes 3-D pictures without distorting their colours.
The team - Keith Wan Hay-man, Wong Ka-chun, Kong Kin-lok and Kelvin Cheung Quan-hang - made use of concepts such as vectograph and polarisation of light in their design.
The liquid crystal device (LCD) was also used.
Their first product was a stereoscopic lens that produces a 3-D image which can be mounted onto any camera, including digital video cameras. The user has to wear a pair of special, coloured spectacles to see the pictures.
They also created a stereoscopic magic box which, when used with appropriate equipment, can convert a two-dimensional image into a 3-D one.
Sam Yuk came second with a pair of gloves which allow users to play music anytime, anywhere, by simply moving their fingers.
The device can also help people to learn the staves. Each button on the gloves produces a specific note.
St Francis' innovative teahouse rotates at a constant speed. With its special facilities, such as a canopy, reclining seats and music, the team believes The Rotating Garden can provide a high standard of entertainment as well as a relaxing atmosphere for the public.
Organised by the JSSE in association with the Leisure and Cultural Services Department and the Hong Kong Science Museum, the exhibition will close at 4pm today. Electronic goods manufacturer Philips is the chief sponsor of the five-day event.

Diet and Nutrition
Whatever you put inside effects the outside. Most of us could chow on donuts, slurp the fizzy drinks and chomp those chips when we were young. Those days are gone. Today we need to feed our bodies and minds into full Sassista splendour.
Getting the Microbiome Back on Track
Top tips for a New Year gut cleanse
So here we are – another year, another few pounds gained over Christmas, another wave of regret and guilt. We look down and see a tummy which covers our toes and groan. Let's face it, we have done just about everything to disrupt our microbiome and put our guts into bloated distress:
The Staying Sassy Christmas reset diet
How to drop the Christmas bloat quickly
OK so despite the good intentions you have indulged in high carb snacks, roast potatoes, bread sauce, a ton of chocolate and a few kilos of cake and pies – all washed down with a good measure of booze. It is not so unusual for people to gain a few pounds in the three days of Christmas but if you are waking up with a bulging tummy and a definite feeling of lethargy then it might be a good time to reset your body before the next onslaught of parties over New Year.
Avoiding the Christmas Flubber Attack
Top tips for avoiding weight gain over Christmas
It's about the start – the big Christmas food frenzy. Shopping carts groaning with calories will be wheeled out of every supermarket; indulgent liqueurs, wines, champagne and creamy after-dinner temptations; every type of candy from the must-have Quality Street to Cherry liqueurs will be hidden in cupboards away from prying man-eyes. Add to these the pounds of protein in turkey, beef, ham, pate and cheese.
The Staying Sassy Great Green Smoothie
The best way to make your smoothie is in a Nutribullet or a very good blender. It needs to be strong enough to whip everything into one smooth green drink.
Gut busting – a nine-day gut-cleansing programme that works
Over the past few years nutritionists and doctors have started to highlight the importance of having a clean gut, which means a gut which is properly balanced in terms of bacteria and also able to both digest food and pull out nutrients efficiently.
Sugar – sweet and scrumptious or white poison?
What was the song? 'A spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down'. More recent evidence indicates that the white demon might just be more kill than cure. Or are we just reacting to another dietary fad in which one food source is blamed for all ills in the world?

The awesome and overwhelming Military Might of the People's Republic of China (PRC), has achieved levels Chairman Mao never thought possible. This all because the Walmart family has sold out America by purchasing cheaply made inferior Chinese goods manufactured at slave wages. With the influx of American money vis-a-vie the WALMART family China has gone on a military spending spree.
The US DOD has concluded that China's defense spending may be Four times larger than its publicly announced total of $20 billion annually. To those who can't count dat's 80 BILLION wit a B BILLION!!!! Thats an 8 wit a B with a whole M.F. LOAD of ZEROS Yo !!!
The PRC's ADVERTISED (Did you get da ply on words yo!)defense spending is closer to $65 million per year, DOD maintains-and suggests that China's annual defense expenditures could triple or even quadruple in real terms by 2020. Gee I wonder why????
That conclusion is included in a 12 July DOD report to Congress that was mandated by the fiscal year 2000 National Defense Authorization Act.
DOD cautions in the report that gaps exist in its knowledge about Chinese military power and intentions. Although China's emerging methods of warfare will likely be increasingly important in the future-particularly in the areas of short- and long-range ballistic missiles and information warfare-the report says, it is difficult to make confident assessments on how these developments will affect the overall military competition between the PRC and Taiwan.
Despite such uncertainty, improvements in China's military capabilities have been identified in a significant number of areas, including the development of a doctrine of preemption and surprise, the funding increases in the PRC's military budget, training and joint operations, missile programs, air defense, command and control, intelligence and surveillance, information and electronic warfare, laser weapons, and space warfare.
China is said to have enhanced its naval forces by increasing their force-- projection options-through, among other things, improving their ability to deploy submarines on extended patrols and outfitting surface ships with more capable air-defense assets and more lethal antiship cruise missiles. The PRC's World War II-vintage amphibious ships are being replaced with newer ships built in China, the report said, and a contract has been signed with Russia to add two Sovremenny-class destroyers to augment the one the PRC purchased in 2000.
China's submarine fleet also is being upgraded through the purchase of modern diesel-electric submarines from Russia. The truth is more like ----> A whole lot of N-class Nuclear-powered ATTACK submarines-Type 093 are secretly being bought and deployed!
The US DOD assessment reports TERRORFYING improvements in China's air power and land forces.
The difficulty in assessing China's improving military capabilities is matched by the challenge of divining the PRC's intentions in the political-military field. That is a buch of BULL-FROG.
The US DOD knows full well China's PRC intentions and are changing adult diapers quite often at the thought of havinf to get our collective US asses kicked by the PRC!!!
DOD concludes that Beijing is pursuing its long-term political goals of developing "comprehensive" national power and ensuring a favorable "strategic configuration of power."
Which is a polite way of saying that they, the PRC, are in the gym, working out like little squint eyed mad men. Now, when the new school year starts, we, the USA, who has gone soft, gotten lazy, and forgotten that FREEDOM AIN'T FREE, will be getting our just come-uppence! I expect that the USA will most likely be seeing the new and very much improved PRC sometime around 3:00pm. Traditionally that is when school lets out. A time, as we all know, will be a no-holds barred ASS-WHOOPING of the USA by the new bad-ass, well muscled, totaly focused, PRC!
China's efforts to meet its security goals involve an integrative strategy, the report states, that combines and applies diplomatic, informational, military, and economic instruments of national power.
"While seeing opportunity and benefit in interactions with the United States-primarily in terms of trade and technology-Beijing apparently believes that the United States poses a significant long-term challenge," the report concludes.
In May, before DOD's release of its updated report, Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz said that the Bush administration has an "enormous interest" in maintaining a good relationship with China. Citing the cooperation provided by China in the war against international terrorism, Wolfowitz said efforts are in motion to put the two countries' military-to-military relationship on a more solid framework.
"We are very interested in bringing China into the mainstream of the Pacific Region," Wolfowitz said during an interview in Singapore on 31 May. "We believe that China has a major, important, and constructive role to play."
Defense and foreign-policy analysts are far from unanimous in their views of Chinese intentions.
Writing in the August issue of Insight Magazine, for example, Larry M. Wortzel, director of the Asian Studies Center at the Heritage Foundation in Washington, D.C., said that China's policy on weapons proliferation threatens U.S. national security and vital foreignpolicy interests. China's threats against Taiwan, Wortzel asserted, could embroil the United States in a military conflict. "It is the tendency of China to use force to settle disputes," Wortzel said. "This is most troubling for the United States and its allies."
Commenting in the same issue of the magazine, Lawrence J. Korb, vice president and director of studies at the Council on Foreign Relations, said that, while the United States should not be complacent, Beijing's ambition to increase its military power to complement its growing economy and strategic position in Asia is not necessarily detrimental to the interest of the United States. "China remains and will remain too weak to challenge U.S. power even in its own neighborhood," Korb said.
The US DOD says(with a straight face)"China is not, and is extremely unlikely to be, a strategic military threat the way the Soviet Union once was."
Please give me a second while I pause from laughing so much...
If you believe that, I have a bridge in Brooklyn, which would be a great investment for you!!!

Dreyer's Grand Ice Cream Acquires Silhouette Brands
OAKLAND, Calif. - Dreyer's Grand Ice Cream Holdings Inc. has added firepower to its low-carbohydrate arsenal by acquiring Silhouette Brands, Inc. for $65.2 million in cash.
OAKLAND, Calif. - Dreyer's Grand Ice Cream Holdings Inc. has added firepower to its low-carbohydrate arsenal by acquiring Silhouette Brands, Inc. for $65.2 million in cash.
Based in New York and founded in 1994 by Marc Wexler and Sam Pugliese, Silhouette, whose brands feature low-fat and low-carb ice cream snacks marketed under the Skinny Cow and Skinny Carb labels, said in February it was seeking to be acquired.
For Dreyer's, the acquisition marks the next chapter in the company's ice cream-buying binge, which in February found the country's top-selling ice cream parent gobbling up the U.S. rights to Haagen-Dazs, including ownership of 236 stores.
Prior to the acquisition, Dreyer's acted as the national distributor for Silhouette Brands. Following this acquisition, Dreyer's anticipates significant administrative, selling, and management synergies; reduced costs; and raw material sourcing improvements.
As one of the fastest-growing partners in Dreyer's distribution portfolio in recent years, company officials said Silhouette Brands adds significant breadth to the ice cream assortment that Dreyer's offers consumers and retailers across the country. Silhouette Brands' executives, meanwhile, praised Dreyer's as an essential partner in its growth by providing direct-store distribution for many years.
Dreyer's paid Silhouette stockholders $4.76 for each common stock share and $6.56 for each preferred stock share held. The common stock price represented a 15 percent premium over Silhouette's closing stock price of $4.15 Friday.
