The King's Chamberlain has become a murderous magician whose continuous attempts to usurp the King are deflected by fruit-throwing animal sidekicks.
Warner Bros based Morgan Creek productions have taken on the mouse factory using the short cut of animating a proven hit. Then they reshaped it in the Disney mould. The story of English governess Anna Leonowens (Richardson) and her employment by the king of Siam (Vidnovic) to teach the royal children, is based on romanticised fact. The 1951 musical and its 1956 multi-Oscar-winning screen adaptation centred on the culture clash between the progressive English lady and the proud, autocratic monarch, shot through with love stuff, charming children and catchy songs. Not exciting enough for this version, here the King's chamberlain (Ian Richardson) is transformed into an evil magician bent on usurping the king, while various principals have been given animal sidekicks and the unhappy concubine is now a servant girl loved by the kick-boxing crown prince (Hong), prompting a hectic jungle escapade that takes us out of the palace. While we're at it, someone said, let's add a touch of The Sound Of Music, too: so Anna and her charges romp through Bangkok singing Getting To Know You to the happy peasants.
But all this effort falls flat. There is nothing heinous, of course, in sanitising a bit of popular culture for kids, who will find this a cheery, tuneful way to pass a matinee. It is, however, a very '50s/'60s look in design and animation (economically spread between animators in the US, Ireland and Asia), with none of the "Wow!" impact given to other recent animated features by miraculous computer effects and CGI bugs.
This looks extremely dated compared to its CGI contemporaries, though it will divert the kids at matinee time.

Item description for Between Two Worlds: The Testimony & the Testament by David Mittelberg...Three generations speak about the effect of the Holocaust on their lives. Part one is the moving, first person account of the author's father, Israel, in the Concentration Camps of Treblinka, Majdanek, Buchenwald, and Matthausen. Part two is the author's analysis of the impact of the Holocaust on the second generation who were raised under the shadow of the Holocaust. Yet a third generation speaks, in the voice of Israel's granddaughters, the daughters of David. Their poignant, eloquent poetry and prose attest to the need to keep the memory of what their grandfather went through, alive.

Barrie Trower talks about microwave weapons
Dr. Barrett has taught at colleges and universities in San Francisco, Paris, and Wisconsin, where he ran for Congress in 2008. He currently works as a nonprofit organizer, author, and talk radio host. He's co-founder of the Muslim-Christian-Jewish Alliance, and author of the books Truth Jihad: My Epic Struggle Against the 9/11 Big Lie (2007) and Questioning the War on Terror: A Primer for Obama Voters (2009). His website is www.truthjihad.com.Are
Barrett, however, takes the covert abuse to a new level, that of Directed Energy Weapons (DEWs), one in which thousands of targeted individuals have alleged for years, many taking their claims of abuse to the president's Bio-ethics Commission.
Who are the targets of the clandestine US Intelligence Agencies?
Information below from Human Rights Watch
(Watch embedded YouTube video on this page with Barrie Towers explaining the DEW assaults burns and other injuries, physical and mental, that targeted individuals are experiencing and consistently reporting.)
Barrett reminds the reader about Barry Jennings, Dr. David Graham, Mike Ruppert, Byron Belitsos, Justin Raymondos, David Ray Griffith, Bob Bowman, Lyn Margulis and many others :
"Barry Jennings, the deputy director of Emergency Services Department for the New York City Housing Authority on 9/11, appears to have been murdered after speaking publicly about explosions he witnessed that partly demolished World Trade Center Building 7 on the morning of 9/11. (The demolition of WTC-7, begun in the morning, was completed shortly after 5:20 that afternoon, after WTC owner Larry Silverstein and colleagues 'made the decision to pull' the building according to Silverstein's own statement.)
"Dr. David Graham of Shreveport, Louisiana, was murdered - apparently by the FBI - for writing a book about two of the alleged 9/11 hijackers, who were obvious intelligence assets controlled by people at Barksdale Air Force Base. Graham was poisoned with ethelene glycol (antifreeze). The case is discussed in Sander Hicks' new book Slingshot to the Juggernaut.
"It might be objected that Jennings and Graham were murdered because they were eyewitnesses to a State Crime Against Democracy, or SCAD, not because they were dissidents. Is there any evidence that the US government (or a rogue network infiltrating it) is "disabling the purveyors" of dangerous ideas by killing or otherwise physically harming them, even if they are not eyewitnesses?
"Mike Ruppert, the original leader of the 9/11 truth movement, writes that his office was attacked by microwave and/or EMF weapons after he began publishing critiques of the official story of 9/11. The attacks may have contributed to Ruppert's poor health and distraught frame of mind, which led him to quit the 9/11 truth movement and temporarily flee the USA in 2006.
"Publisher Byron Belitsos, told Barrett that he and many other 9/11 truth organizers in California were targeted by EMF or microwave weapons during the first years after 9/11.
"Belitsos says the weapons were wielded by men in plain white vans that would park in front of the victim's house, and that victims suffered immediate and sometimes extreme health effects including headaches, ringing in the ears, nausea, vomiting, severe depression, dizziness, and loss of consciousness.
"Justin Raimondo, the pioneer investigator of Israeli complicity in 9/11, was warned away from the subject - and after he disregarded the warning, he suffered a severe heart attack, despite his relative youth and excellent physical condition. Since his mysterious heart attack, Raimondo has stayed away from the subject of 9/11, and has remained in good health.
"David Ray Griffin, the world's leading voice of 9/11 truth, suffered a partially-disabling stroke in the summer of 2010. While he has recovered sufficiently to continue to write and research, the stroke left him with a slight aphasia that has ended his career as a prolific public speaker.
"Dr. Bob Bowman, the former head of Star Wars under two US presidents, has had his 9/11 truth efforts slowed by his struggle with cancer.
"Even more tragically, the most prestigious scientist ever to take up the cause of 9/11 truth, Lynn Margulis, died of a stroke November 22, 2011. When I last spoke to Lynn, less than a year before her death, she told me she did not want to speak publicly about 9/11 any more, because "politics is too dangerous." She sounded scared - like someone had warned or threatened her."Steven Jones, the physics professor who was forced out of Brigham Young University for researching the demolition of the World Trade Center, was warned to stop by a "connected" colleague. Jones did the right thing: he immediately went public about the apparent threat.
Barrett says that Richard Gage, founder of Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth, might have also "been attacked by the type of EMF or microwave weapon described by Ruppert and Belitsos."
"In the summer of 2009, in Washington, DC, Gage suddenly suffered vertigo and hearing loss. Activist colleagues who were present suspect some kind of covert attack. Today, Gage still suffers from the after-effects: partial loss of hearing in one ear.
Thousands of targeted individuals who have tried to raise awareness about their plight to survive being attacked by EMF weapons would find comfort in Barrett's following words: "Though some consider microwave and EMF weapons the stuff of science fiction, Maj. Doug Rokke, Ph.D., the former head of the US Army's depleted uranium cleanup project after Gulf War I, says these weapons are very real, and commonly used in military circles."
Rokke described to Barrett he personally used such weapons on a regular basis while training with Special Forces at US Army facilities:
"'We had them van-mounted, truck-mounted, plane-mounted, and hand-carried. We would go around zapping each other for fun. This was during exercises, or sometimes just as a practical joke.' Rokke assured me that, based on his firsthand knowledge of US military mind-set and capabilities, 9/11 truth activists have undoubtedly been targeted by exotic non-lethal (and lethal) weapons."Will writing this article put me on a US government hit list?" Barrett again asks.
"Twenty years ago, such a question would have sounded absurd.
Today, the USA has become an Orwellian nightmare!"
I would like to add to this list Andrew Breitbart's death as a "stunning coincidence." How utterly convenient that Andrew Breitbart suffered his untimely death just hours before he was set to release damning video footage that could have sunk Barack Obama's 2012 re-election campaign."
TPTB will stop at nothing to hold onto the power which they precariously hold in their bloody hands. No deed to foul, no murder too heinous, no body count too high, TPTB have only HELL as their reward for their vain efforts.

The online retailer currently has pre-orders available for the Xbox 360 titles. Both images say that the titles play on Xbox One. Halo 3: ODST "Campaign Edition" is set to land on June 7 with SSX arriving on June 14.
Earlier this month, Microsoft added Doom 3: BFG Edition, Rayman Origins, The Cave, Comix Zone, Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime and a handful more to the backward compatibility service.
Meanwhile, it also announced the upcoming addition of Call of Duty: Black Ops, BioShock Infinite and Skate 3, though when they'll be available is yet to be revealed. Microsoft is yet to announce either SSX or Halo 3: ODST though.

Sharks bury Tigers' finals hopes
Cronulla went joint top of the NRL ladder and delivered the last rites to Wests' season with a 32-6 drubbing of the Tigers at Leichhardt Oval on Friday evening.
The resounding victory comes as a welcome change of focus for the Sharks, reeling from five-eighth Greg Bird's assault charge and subsequent suspension from the club.
Brett Seymour stood up admirably in Bird's absence, scoring a try and having a hand in several others as the Sharks ran roughshod over a team they had not beaten in nine previous encounters.
"We had a good chat this week about what's got on, (coach) Ricky (Stuart) got us together," Seymour told Fox Sports.
"We're a really tight unit here and that's what makes us play good footy, so we're happy with the way things are going at the moment."
In the evening's other encounter, the Sydney Roosters were given a hell of a fright when they survived a South Sydney fight-back to win 22-20.
The Roosters led 22-0 when Braith Anasta crossed four minutes into the second half, before the Rabbitohs scored the next four tries to almost snatch an unlikely victory.
Chris Sandow's conversion attempt to level the scores hit the upright and then a 40-20 attempt with seconds remaining was ruled to have fallen just short.
The Roosters' win puts them three points clear of fifth-placed Brisbane in the race for a top four spot, although the Broncos have a game in hand.
Across town, the Sharks held a commanding 20-6 advantage at the break against a Tigers outfit missing injured playmaker Robbie Farah.
The visitors went on with the job in the second half, with Seymour gifted a saloon passage to the line after Ryan O'Hara dropped the ball cold in his own half.
Six minutes later Seymour fed the ball to Brett Kearney who danced around some tired Tigers defence and streaked away to dot down.
The Tigers went into the match needing victory to keep their season alive but were never in the contest.
The writing was on the wall early in the piece when Fraser Anderson was held up over the line by a desperate Stuart Flanagan.
Anderson did however atone for the missed opportunity, forcing his way over later in the first half to add to tries from Misi Talaupapa and Luke Covell.
It is the third season in a row the Tigers have missed the finals since winning the premiership in 2005 and coach Tim Sheens has signalled there will be changes.
The match was also Tigers' captain Brett Hodgson's final game in front of a home crowd before he heads to the English Super League next season.
He will finish off his NRL career against the Gold Coast at Skilled Park next weekend.
Sharks 32 (M Talaupapa, L Covell, F Anderson, B Seymour, B Kearney tries; L Covell 5 conversions, penalty)
Tigers 6 (B Harrison try, B Hodgson conversion)
Roosters 22 (A Roberts, M Aubusson, A Tupou, S Perrett, B Anasta tries; C Fitzgibbon conversion)
Rabbitohs 20 (N Merritt, J Sutton, I Luke, L Capewell tries; I Luke conversion, C Sandow conversion)

Final Fantasy XV: Hello Aranea, Goodbye Ground Textures
The Double Dragon series is one that I have no particular fondness for. The maiden entry was originally released as an arcade game in 1987 and ushered in what most consider the Golden Age of the beat 'em up genre. It was an extremely successful game, spawning a live-action film, cartoon series, and unsurprisingly, many sequels and home conversions. Playing through the Sega Master System version with a friend this past week served as my first hands-on experience with the series and it was a little underwhelming. The depth of combat and stage variety was a drastic improvement over the primitive Black Belt but my natural tendencies resulted in an initial playthrough that was less entertaining than later entries in the genre, such as Streets of Rage. Persistent sprite flicker and vague hit detection didn't help matters. Continue reading Double Dragon [Sega Master System] – Review and Let's Play
Although I've long been aware of Space Harrier, playing through the Master System version provided my first hands-on impressions of it, for better or worse. Originally released by Sega as an arcade game in late 1985, it was one of the first games designed by the now legendary Yu Suzuki. The following years saw a multitude of ports to popular home computers but it wasn't until the 1987 Master System port that one of them had the distinction of being handled internally at Sega, helmed in part by the similarly iconic Yuji Naka. The resulting version faithfully adapted the fast-paced shoot 'em up gameplay, vibrant stages, and varied enemies of the original release, despite the technically inferior Master System hardware that could've been a devastating drag on quality. Continue reading Space Harrier [Sega Master System] – Review and Let's Play
Of all the games I'll play on the Sega Master System, Choplifter will likely be the only one that originated on the Apple II. Designed by Dan Gorlin and originally released in 1982, it's a side-scrolling shoot 'em up that emphasizes hostage rescue and accordingly, draws comparison to Defender. In truth, the version I played has more in common with the games I've previously written about since it's actually based on Sega's 1985 arcade release of Choplifter. Like most of what I've played thus far, I found it both enjoyable and challenging. Continue reading Choplifter [Sega Master System] – Review and Let's Play
After obsessing over The Ninja, attempting to complete it and then doing just that, I found myself in a void, unsure what to play next on the Master System. I tried a few different games but nothing satisfied me the way that game did, nothing that I felt was worth devoting the same amount of effort. Wonder Boy finally got me out of that rut. Continue reading Wonder Boy [Sega Master System] – Review and Let's Play
Debuting on the Master System in late 1986, just after the console launched in North America, The Ninja is a fantastic port of Ninja Princess, a little-known arcade game Sega released the year prior. Gameplay is of the run and gun shoot 'em up variety, akin to subgenre classics like Commando and Ikari Warriors, although Ninja Princess predates both; as does its setting, the main differentiating factor between this and many early entries within the subgenre. Despite a run time of about ten minutes, it took me hours and days to complete, resulting in a very rewarding finish! More importantly, I thought it was well designed, enjoyable, and worth my time. It's the first game I've played on the Master System whose quality surprised me, a true hidden gem. Continue reading The Ninja [Sega Master System] – Review and Let's Play

Born: 2 August, 1925, in Egypt. Died: 12 July, 2013, in Jersey, aged 87
The veteran television broadcaster, Alan Whicker, held a special place in the hearts of viewers for his relaxed reporting, canny ability to make complex political subjects comprehensible and ask the most difficult questions of dictators or plutocrats with an endearing smile. Whicker was a charmer. With his smooth voice, horn-rimmed glasses, sleeked black hair and officer moustache he gave the impression of the English gentleman.
He began his career in Fleet Street but moved to join the BBC's Tonight magazine programme before fronting his own programme Whicker's World, which ran from 1959 to 1988 on both the BBC and ITV. Whicker regularly travelled more than 100,000 miles a year interviewing, as he delightfully put it, "the good, the great and the downright strange".
Several notable Whicker's World shows had Scottish connections. He joined Sean Connery on the set of You Only Live Twice in 1967. In 1980 he came to Scotland to do a programme about whisky and enjoyed a guided tour by Raymond Miguel, the boss of Bell's Whisky.Among his more famous interviewees were John Paul Getty, Baroness Thyssen, Roald Dahl, Papa Doc Duvalier of Haiti and President Marcos of the Philippines.
He was awarded the CBE for services to broadcasting in 2005.
Alan Donald Whicker was born to British parents in Cairo but when he was three his father became ill and Whicker was brought up in Richmond, west London. He attended Haberdashers' Aske's Boys School where he was a talented cross-country runner. He left school at 16, was commissioned as an officer in the Devonshire Regiment and joined the Film and Photo Unit.
When it was suggested that he join the unit Whicker replied with typical aplomb: "It sounded like an adventurous suicide – but it was stylish."
He joined the 8th Army in North Africa and in 1943 landed in Sicily – filming the advance though the south of Italy and US general Mark Clark's entry into Rome.
It was, however, in the north of Italy where Whicker made a little bit of history. He and his unit got to Milan before the Allied forces ("God knows what they were doing," he joked).
The city was deserted and while he was taking pictures of the Basilica some partisans informed him that the German troops insisted upon surrendering to an Allied officer.
So Major Whicker put down his camera and confronted the SS officer who said: "My men are at your disposal. I couldn't surrender to that rabble."
For good measure they handed over the SS gold reserves and Whicker then filmed the body of Mussolini and his mistress hanging from a lamp-post.
In 2004 Whicker retraced his journey in a fascinating television programme – Whicker's War – when he visited the houses and families and spoke with much modesty, but with much emotion, of his war experiences.
Whicker returned to journalism and covered the Korean War until 1957 when he joined Tonight – the early evening show hosted by Cliff Michelmore. One of his first assignments was to report on London's first parking meters. His distinctive style became familiar across the nation. Two years later he left to start Whicker's World.
He brought to all his documentaries a very personal view and a matchless panache. He did concentrate on hot islands in the Caribbean, luxury hotels and trips on the Orient Express, but at its peak in the 1970s the show had audiences of more than 15 million. Whicker just loved telling stories about the rich at play and he had the ability to gain their confidence.
As he strode around a splendid palace he addressed the viewer personally as if he was only there to ask their questions. In South America, when interviewing a dictator, he refrained from heavy politics but his final sentence to camera spoke volumes of his real opinion.
In 1967 he was the largest investor of the consortium that won the Yorkshire Television franchise. For a few years Whicker confined his programme-making to the company but in he 1982 returned to the BBC where he had a talk show.
His popularity and his quirky personality won him many awards – notably the Richard Dimbleby Award in 1977.
As if to underline his distinctive and idiosyncratic style, he was much mimicked by comedians. The Monty Python team had a sketch with various "Whickers" wandering around some idyllic tropical beach mumbling into microphones. The most successful spoof was Stanley Baxter's; he got the voice and the facial mannerism just right.
Whicker's success on television and the spin-offs such as books – along with his investment in Yorkshire Television – made him a wealthy man and he had lived in Jersey since the 1970s. He always said his work was his hobby although he also listed "people and reading (usually airline timetables)".
Whicker was once engaged to Olga Deterding, the oil heiress, but they never married. Since 1969 he lived with his partner, Valerie Kleeman, who is his sole survivor.

My daughter, like many girls her age, devours all things Disney princess. From the beginning, my husband and I were concerned about the messages of many of the princess stories. And the insane commercialization involved.
But, we figured it was a phase most girls go through, and to resist was futile. Plus, making something off limits often results in it being more attractive.
And, even if we were to ban all things Disney princess from our home, she would be exposed to it elsewhere. We cannot completely isolate her.
So we gave in and hoped for the best. So far, the exposure seems to be innocuous. Her current plans for the future include being either a wildlife biologist or zoologist. No mention of marrying a prince.
Ariel is her favorite of the Disney princesses. So when hubby found out there was a prequel to The Little Mermaid (Ariel's Beginning) available on Netflix, we knew she would be excited.
I then watched in horror with my four year-old as Ariel's mother was killed violently early in the movie. She was smashed against a rock by a pirate ship. I was shocked, and extremely disturbed.
I always wondered what happened to Ariel's mother. There is no mention of her in the original movie. I assumed she was dead. But did my daughter need to be subjected to that? Was it really necessary?
It brought feelings that have been brewing inside of me for some time to the surface. I have been extremely disappointed with the overwhelming absence of mothers in Disney films.
What does Disney have against moms, anyway? Let's look at the princess movies as examples:
- Aladdin - Jasmine's mother is not present. Presumed dead.
- Beauty and the Beast - Belle's mother is not present. Presumed dead.
- Brave - An exception to the norm. Mother is alive and active in child's life.
- Cinderella - Mother dead. Stepmother evil. (Father also dies.)
- Mulan – Mother alive. Her goal for Mulan is to help her bring honor to the family.
- Pocahantas – Mother dead. Pocahantas wears her necklace.
- Sleeping Beauty - Mother alive; Aurora is raised by three fairies in the woods.
- Snow White – Both parents dead. Jealous, evil stepmother wants her dead, too.
- Tangled - Mother alive; Rapunzel is abducted and raised by evil witch who poses as her mother.
- The Little Mermaid - Mother not present; assumed dead.
- The Princess and the Frog - Mother alive; not active in story. (Father dies.)
Many of these stories are not original to Disney, but some are. And even when using well-known fairy tales, Disney tends to put its own spin on the story.
There are plenty of other offenders in the Disney arsenal. And it's not like dads fare much better. Those present are often portrayed as bumbling, incompetent, easily-manipulated buffoons.
We teach our daughter families come in all shapes and sizes. So I guess on the one hand I should be glad Disney does portray the concept of family in a variety of ways. I just wish it didn't have to come so often at the expense of mothers.
Can I do anything about it? No. Am I going to change my stance and banish all things Disney from my home? Not likely. Besides, we have annual passes to Walt Disney World through January.
I have to have faith the messages she receives from us are more important and influential than those she might get from watching an animated movie/character. It is up to us as her parents to provide the foundation of learning for our child.
But still, I have to ask. Disney, why?
But still, I have to ask. Disney, why?
Have you ever been bothered by the way Disney portrays parents, or is it just me?

Cyto-, myelo- and chemoarchitecture of the prefrontal cortex of the
According to several lines of evidence, the great expansion observed in the primate prefrontal cortex (PfC) was accompanied by the emergence of new cortical areas during phylogenetic development. As a consequence, the structural heterogeneity noted in this region of the primate frontal lobe has been associated with diverse behavioral and cognitive functions described in human and non-human primates. A substantial part of this evidence was obtained using Old World monkeys as experimental model; while the PfC of New World monkeys has been poorly studied.

The MPfC occupies the medial surface of the PfC from the frontal pole to the anterior extremity of the cingulate sulcus (cgs). However, since architectonic studies of PfC in macaques include the precallosal extension of the anterior cingulate gyrus (ACgG), this area was also included in the present study. Finally, the OfC occupies the ventral surface of the PfC extending from the frontal pole rostrally to the anterior perforated substance.

In E perineuronal nets (PNs) stained with WFA ensheath layer III non-pyramidal neurons in area 45, and in F PNs surrounding layer V pyramidal neurons in area 32. In all cell types, staining intensity decreases from perikaryon to distal portions of dendrites. In G, myelin staining of area 9m. Note thick vertical fascicles and outer band of Baillarger (asterisk). Calibration bar in F applies to all figures except G

SMI-32 exhibited a heterogeneous labeling pattern across the
In the brain sections examined in this study, the greatest density of SMI-32 positive neuronal soma was noted in supragranular layers, mainly in layer IIIc, and some in layer IV. Comparatively, few immunoreactive neuronal soma were observed in infragranular layers. In addition, a variable level of neuropil immunoreactivity both in the supra- and infragranular bands was observed.
The black-gold staining pattern distinguished densely myelinated areas in the lateral PfC from less stained areas in the medial and orbital surfaces. In addition to this basic characteristic, in some areas the visualization of vertical fascicles or the inner and outer bands of Baillarger, (ibB and obB) allowed to establish areal boundaries (Figure
Architectonic parcellation
Lateral PfC (Table
Area 10
The frontopolar region had a well developed layer II. Layer III contained small-sized cells with weak stain, except in IIIc, where they were more stained and larger. Layer IV was well developed. Cells in Va were more densely packed than in IIIc, and Vb almost blended with layer VI where small-sized neurons predominated (Figure

Roman numerals in Nissl stained sections indicate cortical layers. Calibration bar in A applies to all figures.
This area was not sharply demarcated in relation to the adjoining caudal areas using this technique (Figure
The supragranular band consisted of weak neuropil labeling, profiles of apical dendrites and soma of sparsely distributed pyramidal neurons. The neuropil in the infragranular band was more densely labeled, exhibiting few immunoreactive neurons in layer Va (Figure
The frontal pole revealed poor to moderate myelination, basically concentrated in infragranular layers, where thin vertical fibers extended from the white matter (Figure
Area 9
This area occupied part of the lateral (area 9d) and medial (area 9m) surfaces of the superior frontal gyrus (SFG). On the DlPfC, 9d ventrally reached the border between the SFG and the medial frontal gyrus (MFG); and on the medial surface area 9m extended up to the cingulate sulcus (Figures
In this area, layer II was not well developed. Layer IIIa contained small-sized cells, sparsely scattered with weak to moderate stain. Layers IIIb and IIIc had small and medium-sized cells, respectively. Cells of IIIc were slightly more stained and separated from layer Va by a poorly developed layer IV. Layer Va exhibited well pigmented medium-sized cells and layers Vb and VI had small-sized cells and no clear limits (Figure
Figure 7

In 9d, the most intensely stained band coincided with layer VI, reaching the white matter (Figure
Caudally, area 9d exhibited denser immunoreactivity than area 10. The bilaminar pattern was less evident; and there was an intense labeling of neuropil and processes. Several small- to medium-sized dense immunoreactive pyramidal neurons were observed in layers IIIc, IIIb and IV. In the infragranular layers, the number of immunoreactive neurons was small and the labeling was restricted mainly to neuropil and fragments of apical dendrites (Figure
Figure 8

In 9d, infragranular layers were heavily myelinated, with prominent vertically oriented fiber bundles extending from the white matter to layer III. The obB was easily discernible and supragranular layers exhibited a sparse plexus of fine myelinated fibers (Figure
Periprincipalis areas (46d, 46dr, 46vr and 46v)
Following the nomenclature adopted by Walker
In the banks of prs, area 46d exhibited a well developed and densely packed layer II, showing clear limits with layer III. Layer IIIa had small-sized neurons, moderately stained. Neurons in IIIc layer were small- to medium-sized and intensely stained. Layer IV was well developed and in Va neurons were intensely stained. The limit between layers Vb and VI was not clear, because both had medium-sized cells and moderate pigmentation (Figure
Figure 9

Architectonic parcellation of periprincipalis region in
In the dorsal crown of prs, area 46dr exhibited transitional characteristics between areas 46d and 9d. The most distinctive aspect was the density decrease in layers II and IV dorsalwards. Va exhibited medium-sized cells slightly more stained than in IIIc. Layers Vb and VI had pale stained small-sized cells, with no clear definition between both layers (Figure
In the ventral crown of prs, area 46vr exhibited similar characteristics to 46v but with layer IV somewhat more developed, showing densely packed cells. Layer III presented clear lamination and the supra- and infragranular compartments were equally prominent. Radial striations could be noted in the infragranular layers, mainly in layer V (Figures
The staining in 46dr was weaker than in area 9d. Discrete nets surrounding small cells with the neuropil weakly stained were observed in supragranular layers. Deep layers had a staining pattern similar to 9d, but somewhat less intense. In the caudal half of the prs, the labeling was more intense, but rostrally it was weak, with no clear demarcation with the adjacent area 10.
The walls of the prs exhibited lower levels of WFA reactivity. In the dorsal bank (46d), a small number of nets involved non-pyramidal neurons in layers III and IV, and a faintly stained band of neuropil with some darkly stained nets were present in deeper layers. In the ventral bank (46v) the WFA staining was still weaker (Figure

Roman numerals in Nissl stained sections indicate cortical layers. Calibration bar in A applies to all figures.
WFA staining increased in the ventral crown of the prs (46vr; Figure
Dorsally, the immunoreactivity in area 46dr pattern was less intense and showed clear-cut limits with area 9d (Figure
Area 46vr showed a significant increase in the SMI-32 immunoreactivity, permitting a clear distinction with area 46v (Figure
Area 46dr exhibited lighter myelination than 9d. The obB was narrower and less stained, and vertical fibers were more sparse and thinner (Figure
In 46vr, infragranular layers were more heavily myelinated than in area 46v with evident vertical fiber fascicles, however the obB was not clearly discernible. The supragranular layers were poorly myelinated (Figures
Area 12
This area occupied part of the ventrolateral convexity of the lateral PfC (area 12l), reaching the orbital surface of the fronto-orbital gyrus (FOG; area 12o).
In the ventrolateral convexity, layer IV seemed narrower in 12l than in 46vr, and the lamination in layer III was less evident. There was no obvious predominance between supra- and infragranular layers. Caudally, some darkly stained cells could be distinguished in layers IIIc and Va, similar to the adjoining area 45 (Figure
Figure 11

Roman numerals in Nissl stained sections indicate cortical layers. Calibration bar in A applies to all figures.
The cortex in area 12 was more intensely stained than the adjacent cortical areas 45 and 46vr. In 12l, the most intensely labeled band coincided with layer V, reaching layer VI. The neuropil was intensely labeled and a high concentration of nets could be observed (Figure
Ventrally, the labeling pattern in area 12l was denser than in area 46vr, increasing the number of immunoreactive neurons in the supra and infragranular bands (Figure
Area 12l exhibited stronger myelination than area 46vr, with evident obB and heavy staining in the infragranular layers (Figure
Prearcuate areas (45, 8d and 8v)
Technical artifacts due to sulcus presence and plane-of-section problems impaired a clear analysis of the prearcuate region, near the caudal end of the prs. Area 45 occupied the anterior bank of the inferior arm of the arcuate sulcus, extending anteriorly to the caudal third of the inferior frontal gyrus (IFG; Figures
area 45 exhibited granular layers II and IV very well developed and clear limit between layers II and III. In IIIc, large-sized and darkly-stained pyramidal cells gave this area a peculiar characteristic. These large and well-stained cells were also observed in Va. Vb and VI showed small-sized cells.
In 8v granular layers II and IV were well developed. In IIIa and IIIb cells were small, sparsely packed and with low staining. In contrast to area 45, IIIc and Va displayed medium-sized cells, somewhat more stained in Va. Layers Vb and VI had poorly stained small-sized cells. The cytoarchitectonic pattern in 8d was similar, but cells in layer IV were somewhat more sparsely distributed. Radial striations were observed both in 8d and 8v (Figure
Area 45 demonstrated a large number of strongly stained nets and moderately stained neuropil in layer IV, reaching layers III and Va, besides a less stained band in layer VI. Between these two bands there were a few nets and the neuropil was discretely stained. Dorsally, the labeling in 8d was weaker than that observed in area 45, with only one band of neuropil being visible in layer V and a few nets moderately stained in layers V and III (Figure
Area 45 had moderate labeling level. The supragranular band contained soma profiles surrounded by intense neuropil. There was also an increase of neuropil labeling in layer IV, but the bilaminar aspect remained. The infragranular band exhibited a moderate neuropil labeling and scarce dendritic profiles. Dorsally, area 8d had a moderate level of immunoreactivity, with medium- to small-sized pyramidal cells in layer IIIc, and in a lesser degree in layers IV, IIIa and V (Figure
Myelination increased ventrally in the anterior bank of the

Area 11
On the orbital surface, area 11 m exhibited a thin and sparse layer II. Layer III was also sparse and contains small- to medium-sized pyramidal neurons with some densely stained neurons in IIIc. The limit between layers IIIc and IV was well-defined. Neurons in Va were somewhat more densely packed. Layers Vb and VI had small-sized neurons and the limits between layers were not visible. In 11l, layer IV was narrow and Va showed well stained medium-sized cells, a characteristic that differentiates this area from the adjoining 12o.
Area 11l (Figure

There was a clear decrease in the density of SMI-32 staining on the orbital surface. 11l had clear-cut limits with its neighbouring area 12o (Figure
Area 11l had sparse myelination, with obB and infragranular layers less stained than area 12o. In 11m, the obB was faintly stained and ibB was not discernible. Vertical fiber fascicles were observed in infragranular layers in this area, resembling the aspect observed in 46vr (Figure
Area 13
Following Walker's parcellation of
Comparatively with 13m, 13i exhibited less developed layers II and IV. Layers Vb and VI had moderately stained small-sized neurons. These cytoarchitectonic characteristics could also be observed in 13l, however, this area contained larger cells in Va.
Staining becomes more intense caudally in the central orbital region. The 13i was the most intensely stained, showing a bilaminar aspect. The superficial band was weakly stained, with sparse labeling of neuropil and pale nets involving small non-pyramidal neurons. This superficial band was almost indiscernible in the adjoining areas 13l and 13 m (Figure
Figure 13
Architectonic parcellation of the caudal orbitofrontal cortex in
Architectonic parcellation of the caudal orbitofrontal cortex in
Among the subdivisions of area 13, only 13i had a bilaminar pattern (Figure
In the central orbital region, area 13i had light to moderate myelination, but stronger than the adjoining cortical areas 13l and 13m. The obB was clearly discernible in 13i and a fine fiber plexus could be observed in supragranular layers. Deep layers had moderate staining. In 13l and 13 m the staining was lighter and more diffuse, with short vertical fiber bundles extending from the white matter to 13 m (Figure
Area 14
In the anterior part of the gyrus rectus (GRe), area 14r had layer II poorly developed with no clear limits with layer III. Layers IIIa and IIIb had sparse small-sized cells with moderate staining. In IIIc, cells were slightly more stained and larger than IIIb. Layer IV was not well-developed and small-sized neurons predominate in infragranular layers. The limit between layers Vb and VI was not clear (Figure
The WFA staining considerably decreased in the GRe. At the anterior level, area 14r was not sharply labeled from the adjacent areas 11l and 10 (Figures
In the GRe, the staining intensity was extremely weak. Rostrally (14r) the infragranular band had modest immunostaining, corresponding primarily to the neuropil and a few perikarya, and very few immunoreactive somas in layer IIIc. Caudally, 14c exhibited very light immunostaining, limited to neuropil in the infragranular band (Figures
The GRe (area 14r) had lower levels of myelin staining than neighbouring areas. Only some short and thin vertical fibers emerging from the white matter were present but did not reach supragranular layers (Figure

Medial PfC (Table
As the dorsal, anterior and ventral borders of this surface represent medial extensions of areas already described, we will describe its central portion.
Areas 32 and 25
In the medial surface, area 32 occupied most part of the ACgG. Area 32c was situated anteriorly to the corpus callosum and circumscribed dorsally and ventrally by the cgs and rostral sulcus, respectively. Infragranular layers were more developed in relation to the supragranular compartment. Layer II was poorly developed and had no clear limits with the densely packed layer III. There was no obvious lamination in layer III, while layer IV was absent. Layer V had radial striations and small- to medium-sized cells, which were somewhat larger and more stained than in layer III. There was no clear limit between layers V and VI (Figure

Roman numerals in Nissl stained sections indicate cortical layers. Calibration bar in A applies to all figures.
Ventrally to the rostrum of the corpus callosum, area 25 showed supragranular layers more developed than area 32c, and there was an evident subdivision between layers II and III. Layer III had sparse clusters of small-sized neurons with moderate staining, no clear lamination and scarcely discernible layer IV. In layer V, almost blending with layer VI, cells were slightly larger and more densely packed than in layer III (Figure
Areas in the medial surface were sharply labeled with WFA (Figure
Area 25 could be differentiated from the adjacent dorsal area 32c and ventral area 14c by clear-cut boundaries (Figures
Area 32c had discrete immunoreactivity. It was observed only a sparse immunoreactive band of neuropil in infragranular layers with very few pyramidal neurons and dendrites concentrated in layer V. Rostrally, the labeling in 32r was somewhat more intense and some pyramidal neurons could also be seen in layer IIIc. The labeling in 25 was similar to that observed in area 32c, but still lighter (Figures
On the medial surface, myelination considerably decreased caudalwards. Area 32c exhibited moderate to poor staining pattern (Figure

Two other factors should be mentioned when analyzing the differences between the present findings and those reported by von Bonin. First, von Bonin's observations were based on a single animal. Second, the criteria used by von Bonin and his collaborators to divide cytoarchitectonic areas were more restricted than those used by others, justifying their criticism of the division proposed by Walker

In this study, based on coronal sections, the prearcuate region was subdivided into three areas, 8d dorsally, 45 ventrally, and 8v between them. Dorsally, a transitional region between areas 9d and the agranular cortex of the PcG was observed; however, this region was not consistently characterized as an architectonically independent area. Functional studies indicate that, in

WFA staining, for example, has been successfully used to define functional cortical areas in marsupials
Similarly, SMI-32 has been used as a powerful tool to reliably define architectonic limits between functional cortical areas in rodents
The functional significance of the heterogeneous distribution of some of the probes used in this study throughout the
In the cerebral cortex, SMI-32 positive neurons are mainly located in layers III and V, but depending on the cortical area, the proportion of these cells in each layer may vary. It is known that layer III is the main source of ipsi- and contralateral corticocortical projections and layers V and VI are preferentially associated with subcortical targets
Regarding WFA, the extracellular matrix (EM) and PNs have been associated with stabilization and formation of synapses, guiding of axons to their targets, maintenance of the composition of the extracellular compartment, formation of a link with the intracellular cytoskeleton, and concentration of growth factors surrounding certain neurons
This study indicated the existence of structural similarities between the
For this study, five young adult male
Animals were anesthetized with sodium pentobarbital (30 mg/kg, i.p.) and transcardially perfused with 0.9% saline (800 ml) followed by 1500 ml of 4% paraformaldehyde in 0.1 M acetate buffer, pH 6.5, and subsequently by 1500 ml of 4% paraformaldehyde in 0.1 M borate buffer, pH 9.0. Brains were exposed and blocked with the aid of a stereotaxic device. Blocks were then removed from the skull and placed in a cryoprotective solution containing 10% glycerol and 2% dimethyl sulfoxide in 0.1 M borate buffer, pH 9.0, at 4°C. Three days later, blocks were transferred to a similar solution but with increased concentration of glycerol (20%) for four additional days according to previously described methods
Staining methods
WFA histochemistry
Free-floating sections were treated with 1% H2O2 in 0.1 M Tris-buffered saline (TBS) for 30 min, washed and subsequently incubated with 2% bovine serum albumin (BSA) in TBS for 1 h. Following three rinses in TBS, sections were incubated with biotinylated WFA (Sigma, L1766) at a concentration of 3 µg/ml TBS-BSA for 16 h, gently shaken at 4°C. The sections were then rinsed in TBS and incubated for 1 h in Extravidin-Peroxidase (Sigma, E2886). Lectin-binding sites were visualized with the chromogen VIP (Vector, SK4600) which yielded a red-purple reaction product. Sections were then mounted on gelatinized slides, dehydrated through a graded alcohol series (70-90-100-100%, 1 min each), cleared in xylene (three changes, 5, 10, and 30 min each) and coverslipped with DPX. In control experiments, biotinylated WFA was omitted and no specific staining was observed in these sections.
Black Gold II staining
Sections were previously mounted on 1% gelatin-coated slides and air dried, rehydrated in distilled water for 2 min and transferred to a 0,2% Black-Gold solution at 60°C, for 12-18 min. This solution was made by adding 100 mg of Black-Gold II (Histo-Chem Inc. # 1BGII) to 50 ml of 0.9% NaCl. Incubation was interrupted when the horizontal parallel fibers of layer I were visible. Sections were rinsed for 2 min in distilled water, fixed for 3 min in a sodium thiosulfate solution, rinsed in tap water for 10 min (two 5 min changes), dehydrated through a graded alcohol series (70-90-100-100%, 1 min each), cleared in xylene (5, 10, and 30 min) and coverslipped with DPX.
SMI-32 immunohistochemistry
Free-floating sections were treated with 0.6% H2O2 and 60% methanol in TBS 0.1 M for 30 min, washed and subsequently incubated with 3% fetal calf serum (FCS) in TBS for 1 h. Following three rinses in TBS, sections were incubated in a solution of mouse monoclonal SMI-32 antibody (Sternberger Monoclonals, Inc., dilution 1:4000) in TBS-TX 0.05M, for 48 h, gently shaken at 4°C. The sections were then rinsed with TBS-TX for 30 min and incubated for 2 h at 4°C in biotinylated secondary goat anti-mouse antibody (1:200, Vector Laboratories), rinsed again (3 × 10 min TBS-TX) and reacted for 90 min in the Vectastain ABC Elite system (1:100,Vector Laboratories) at room temperature. Antigenic sites were visualized with 0.02-0.05% 3,3'-diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride (DAB) and 0.1% nickel ammonium sulfate. Sections were then mounted on gelatinized slides, dehydrated through a graded alcohol series (70-90-100-100%, 1 min each), cleared in xylene (5, 10, and 30 min) and coverslipped with DPX. In control experiments, the SMI-32 antibody was omitted and no specific staining was observed.
Nissl stain
The conventional thionin staining method was used to establish the general cytoarchitectonic characteristics and to aid the localization of the laminar distribution of the other stains.
Sections were examined by brightfield microscopy. Selected images were digitalized at high and low magnifications using a Leitz Aristoplan microscope or a Carl Zeiss stereomicroscope (STEMI 2000-c) respectively, both coupled with a Carl Zeiss Axiocam MRc5 digital camera. To eliminate the background originated by digitalization, color balances, brightness, contrast and sharpness were corrected in each preparation.
Because the distinction of limits between areas may vary among observers, the sections were independently examined by three of the researchers of this study and, when necessary, a consensual border was adopted. As defined in previous studies using similar multiarchitectonic approaches, the areas were defined only if they showed differential staining patterns in at least two morphological methods and if they could be consistently found in all animals studied

Compiler for CFX4.4 on Linux cluster
I know this has been discussed before in this forum, but maybe there is some news in respect to this subject.
Does anybody know if the Portland compiler is the only option for compiling double precision user FORTRAN on a Linux cluster, when I run CFX4.4? or are there any free compilers out there which can do the job?
I think Jan Rusås raised the subject last time. So maybe you can comment with your experience on the matter.
Cheers, Mads
Re: Compiler for CFX4.4 on Linux cluster
Hi' Mads I can't answer your question, but what is the problem. a single Portland compiler is not so expensive, and I am sure that CFX must have an agreement with Portland so CFX user's can get it for an even lower price.
Re: Compiler for CFX4.4 on Linux cluster
Yes, you must use the portland compiler for double precision. g77 does not support autopromotion through a compiler flag.
You might also try downloading the non-comerical version of the intel compiler, which has the right compiler options, but I don't think it has compatible name mangling with gcc/g77/portland (which are all compatible).
Re: Compiler for CFX4.4 on Linux cluster
The main issue is that CFX-4.4 was compiled using the Portland compiler. Your code will compile with g77 just fine, but it won't link with the pre-compiled object modules of the CFX-4.4 engine. Last I heard (February), there were no plans to re-compile CFX-4.4 with the g77 compiler. Check with your support person.

There is confusion about who is responsible for an oil sheen near Talisman Energy's Galley field in the UK North Sea, according to a Department of Energy and Climate Change spokesman.
Speaking to Rigzone Thursday the DECC spokesman confirmed that investigations are continuing into the sheen, which was first observed approximately 2 miles from a pipeline connecting Galley to Talisman's Tartan Alpha installation at around lunchtime on Tuesday. But according to the DECC spokesman, Talisman claims there has so far been no evidence linking it to the sheen in spite of it reporting a minor leak from the pipeline almost a week ago.
"The sheen has been spotted in the vicinity of the pipeline, but Talisman are saying it is not there. The amount of oil that has come from the pipeline is very small, so they are not making a connection between the two. So we're investigating it at this moment," the spokesman said.
On August 24, Talisman reported a minor leak from the Galley-Tartan Alpha pipeline, which is approximately 16 miles long. At the time the leak was identified the pipeline was depressurized and isolated, and Talisman monitored the leak point using a remotely-operated vehicle.
Total fluid released from the pipeline was reported to DECC as being approximately 14 tons, of which two tons was oil. However, aerial observations of the sheen made on Tuesday estimated between five tons and 34 tons of oil. Talisman confirmed Thursday that it estimates the total release from its pipeline to date is no more than 88 barrels of fluids (approximately 12 tons), of which 13 barrels (1.8 tons) would be oil and the rest water.
Talisman got in touch with Rigzone Thursday afternoon (London time) to say that analysis of samples taken from what it describes as a "third party" sheen has confirmed that it is not crude oil from the Galley field and that the results of this analysis are being passed on to DECC.
A spokeswoman explained that Talisman has been conducting pipeline flushing operations following the discovery in the Galley-Tartan Alpha pipeline and has since flushed seawater through the pipe past the crack in the pipeline. But while Talisman was out there conducting this operation, the firm spotted the sheen and informed DECC.
"Because we're out there and have got the oil spill equipment we've worked closely with them and have offered any assistance that they might need," said the spokeswoman.
DECC has promised a full investigation, and the UK's Maritime and Coastguard Agency has been notified.

Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith Chapter XXI: Jedi War Council
Jedi War Council
This is the Jedi war room, located within the central Temple Spire. This scene originally took place in Yoda's chamber, and was comprised of a discussion between Mace, Yoda and Obi-Wan concerning the "plot to destroy the Jedi". This is one of the deleted scenes found on the Episode III DVD. Shots set in the war room were identified with a "CJW" prefix during post-production[1].
The tactical display table is projecting a holographic representation of a Clone Wars battle. Visible Republic units are clone troopers, All Terrain Recon Transports and Infantry Support Platforms, while the Separatists are fielding battle droids and dwarf spider droids.
Alongside the holograms of Yoda, Ki-Adi-Mundi and Cody is Jedi Knight Aayla Secura, an Expanded Universe character first seen in Republic: Twilight and given a brief role in Episode II. She was intended to have a line of dialogue here: "I'm sorry I'm late, Master Windu. Would you like my report?" (changed from an earlier line, "You asked for my report, Master Windu?", itself intended to be accompanied by another line)[1]. At one stage, she was also set to deliver lines prior to her death on Felucia.
The ComScan screens on the outer edges of the war room are reminiscient of those to be seen decades later in Rebel Alliance command rooms on Yavin IV and Hoth.

I've seen a lot of similar posts on this board for specific foods, but what are your best tips for finding a wide variety of locally grown foods? I know that the farmers markets are at the top of the list. But during the off season, or when your shopping schedule is out of sync with the market schedules, where do you go?
I buy the majority of my groceries from Wilson Farms, but I was frustrated to learn that their beef comes from Utah and other meats come from Pennsylvania, New York, etc. Since it's early in the season, most of their produce is coming from California and Mexico. Boston Organics gets a good portion of their produce from the west coast and South America too. Does Russo's carry local foods? How about New Deal? Is their fish mostly local? Are there other meat / seafood stores where I can count on finding some local options year round?
