Curtin geologists make a 'shocking' discovery
Research led by Curtin University geologists has uncovered a wealth of new evidence in the mineral zircon from lunar rock samples recovered during NASA's Apollo missions, revealing indisputable proof of meteorite collisions on the Moon.
Headed by microstructural geology experts Dr Nick Timms and Professor Steven Reddy of the Western Australian School of Mines (WASM), the study documents the discovery of impact-related shock features in lunar zircon, giving scientists a new conceptual framework to explain the history and timing of meteorite impact events in our solar system.
Dr Timms said the discovery was made while looking more closely at lunar zircon mineral grains, with the use of microscopy facilities at Curtin, and finding the presence of preserved microscopic details, known as planar deformation features (PDFs), as well as micro-twins (impact indicators), which are only ever produced by large-scale meteorite impacts.
"This research is the first to report the presence of PDFs and micro-twins in lunar zircon, which provide unequivocal evidence of the immense pressures that occur during an impact event," Dr Timms said.
"This research also provides a new explanation of how these features form. As shock waves pass through a rock, fractions of a second after a meteorite impact, these features form like microscopic crumple zones which are caused by directional differences in zircon's elasticity."
Dr Timms said the research, which characterises the impact shock features, would provide a new framework for scientists to interpret impact-related data.
"The new conceptual framework allows lunar scientists to recognise whether complex zircon grains can be explained by a single impact event, or require more than one impact event," he said.
"Furthermore, our new approach allows us to recognise impact-related features in zircon in lunar and terrestrial rocks that would otherwise be overlooked or difficult to find.
"This helps us to overcome one of the major problems with studying the impact history of the Earth, as direct evidence of impacts, such as craters, become eroded and destroyed through processes of plate tectonics, so much so that none are preserved from the earliest periods of the Earth's history."
Dr Timms said the research was a step closer to the major scientific goal of establishing the absolute timing of meteorite impact events on the Moon, and consequently, the inner solar system.
"The current paradigm for the early impact history of our solar system stems from studies of lunar rocks and involves a period of intense impact events around 3.9 billion years ago, known as the 'Late Heavy Bombardment'," he said.
"Recent dating of grains of the mineral zircon in lunar samples by the research group at Curtin shows a range of ages that challenges this view and we anticipate the new framework will help us to test if this bombardment is recorded in similar age zircon grains on Earth."
This research was the result of a collaborative effort between the Curtin research group in Applied Geology, Dr Nick Timms, Professor Steven Reddy, Associate Professor Alexander Nemchin, Dr Marion Grange and Professor Bob Pidgeon, as well as Dr Rob Hart from the Materials Characterisation Group in Curtin Applied Physics and Dr Dave Healy at the University of Aberdeen, UK.
The Curtin research group in Applied Geology is a pioneer in its field and is currently leading the world in the application of quantitative microstructural techniques to zircon research. In 2006, they also made the discovery that zircon could deform in the Earth's crust and that the structures formed in this deformation could help modify the geochemistry of zircon.
The group's most recent paper, Resolution of impact-related microstructures in lunar zircon: A shock deformation mechanism map, is published in the internationally esteemed journal, Meteoritics and Planetary Science.

Buying or selling a home can be complicated, and my job is to make it as easy and stress free as possible. Experience makes all the difference.
After a long career in radio broadcasting and marketing for record companies such as Virgin & Atlantic Records, I became a Realtor in 2000 and have not looked back since.
Born and raised in Kingston, I left for nearly 25 years to move around the country only to realize that the Hudson Valley was the BEST place on earth to live and returned in the mid 1990's.
The lessons learned from time spent in the music business have proven to be invaluable when assisting my clients in their real estate needs. Buyers appreciate attention to details and commitment when helping them search for homes, and sellers benefit from my marketing skills which are so important, especially in today's real estate market.
I take my profession seriously; I served as the 2010 President to the Ulster County Board of Realtors and I am very involved in my community serving as a director for the Kingston Land Trust and Kingston Uptown Business Association. In addition I was a graduate of the NYSAR 2012 Leadership Academy. This is the level of commitment and determination that you can expect from me.

text: Two New Ferraris Destroyed In Exotic Rally Crash On Dangerous Chinese RoadTravis Okulski10/15/12 10:30amFiled to: car crashesChinaFerrariTop801EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalinkThe automotive community in China is still pretty young. Combine that with a booming economy, and inexperienced drivers are getting some pretty fast and tough to drive cars.AdvertisementThat's not a good combination, and it all came together over the weekend when two brand new Ferraris met each other, and not in a friendly way. It was in a very crashy way.Reportedly, a convoy of Ferraris was traveling near Shaanxi in Northwest China on what appears to be the Ansai segment of the Baomao Expressway when two of them went out of control.AdvertisementThe 458 Spider and California collided with each other, and it looks like the crash was at an exceptionally high speed. The cars are barely recognizable, and when you have a Ferrari V8 sitting on the highway sans car, you know it's serious.While there is currently no word on injuries to the people in these cars, the Baomao Expressway is no stranger to terrible crashes. In September, seven people were killed in an accident on the Luochuan segment, while an unbelievable 36 people were killed on the Yan'an segment in August.

The intoxicated 'Avatar' actor pushed a bouncer.
Sam Worthington was in trouble Saturday night, but he's out of trouble now.
The Avatar star got into a scuffle with a security guard at Atlanta restaurant, Vortex, when he was refused entrance because he appeared to be too intoxicated and didn't have proper identification, reports Celebuzz.
Worthington pushed the bouncer, Jerry Link, twice, who then pepper sprayed the actor and handcuffed him until police arrived and arrested him for disorderly conduct.
Maybe he was just doing some method acting, because Worthington told told Link, "I'm a DEA agent," according to TMZ. Worthington plays a DEA agent in the film Ten, which he's shooting in Atlanta and which costars Arnold Schwarzenegger.
The case was dismissed Monday morning when Link didn't show up in court.

View Chris Santos in a larger map
Cutting a tattooed figure as a judge on "Chopped" and in the neighborhood restaurants he owns and cooks in (last year's Beauty & Essex and the celebrity-studded Stanton Social), Chris Santos is something of a Lower East Side legend. When he's not running two busy kitchens, he's rocking out in the neighborhood, grabbing late night gyros to fuel an '80s dance party or scarfing down tacos at the Essex Street Market. Read on for Chris's greatest hits of the LES.
Chris' Picks
Pizza by the slice
Nonna's LES Pizzeria is a hidden gem with a wide array of both traditional and inventive slices. They finish the "grandma" slice with a drizzle of olive oil and a generous amount of parmigiano grated fresh from the wedge.
Pizza pies
I've heard amazing things about the new Via Tribunalii, but haven't been there yet. Until I try it, I'm going to go with San Marzano Brick Oven Pizzeria. I love their scorched crust and quality sausage. A guilty pleasure of mine is their Spicy Chicken Calzone.
Burger, cheap
Whitmans' Juicy Lucy is a pretty ridiculous thing to behold. It's crazy good. Technically it's in the East Village, but I don't think anything on the LES compares for a good cheap burger.
Burger, fancy
I love the burger at Clinton St. Baking Co. It's perfectly seasoned, with quality bacon and cheddar. Great at the counter with an ice cold beer and their equally impressive sweet potato fries.
I love the coffee at Grit N Glory which is also a super-cool rock 'n' roll-inspired clothing and housewares boutique. I just picked up a sweet converted skateboard and food/water bowl setup for my dog.
Anything from Tiny's Giant Sandwich Shop. I usually create my own sandwich on their amazing seeded semolina bread: a crispy chicken cutlet, bacon, avocado, cheddar and lots of their "just right" spicy chipotle mayo. Get it warm.
I go to Heaven's Hot Bagel for quick delivery and fresh bagels, but usually when I'm in the mood for that sort of thing, I head to Kossar's for a bialy.
Technically it's take-out, but it's so worth the short walk from my apartment to get food from Taqueria Lower East Side. They have a great simple steak quesadilla, and I love their tortilla soup.
Again, I have to go with Clinton St. Baking Co. You pretty much can't go wrong there. Their chocolate chunk pancakes with warm maple butter are the best indulgent breakfast. Get it with a side of their perfectly sweet, salty and smoky sugar-cured bacon.
Dive bar
St. Jerome's is dark and sweaty, with smoke machines and strobe lights. It's where I go to channel my inner '80's hair metal dude.
Wine bar
'inoteca is a great place to grab a glass of wine from their always impressive list.
Il Laboratorio del Gelato rocks. Their flavors change regularly, so my favorites depend on the season. Anything you get there will be good, but some of my favorites are fresh mint, fig, mascarpone and mocha chip.
Takeout Thai
One More Thai is always fast, fresh, piping hot and consistent! Try the chive pancake with garlic and soy, the drunken noodles, and the jungle curry with sticky rice.
Wolfnights' falafel sandwich is totally unique, wrapped in their signature fig and pomegranate dough.
Late night eats
Bereket for that beer-absorbing gyro.
Date night
Macondo makes for a great, easy date night spot. They have nice, affordable wines and consistently good Latin-inspired small plates. I like to sit at the bar and order a few plates at a time.
Can't-miss neighborhood spot
I've become addicted to the tacos at Brooklyn Taco in the Essex Street Market. The roster of tacos changes daily, but all are solid. The Chorizo is a must.

never received it/would have been nice if this company did some follow up/this company sucks
This product is excellent and we will continue to use it on our standard schnauzer who has had skin problems for most of his 12 years of life. We found this shampoo about 6 months ago and very happy with this product.
I stumbled on MalAcetic Ultra shampoo when I was at my wit's end trying to interrupt my dog's chronic staph and pyoderma. I bathed her in this and her skin cleared up, almost immediately. I continue to rely on this shampoo, as well as MalAcetic wipes and Flush to control any new outbreaks. Canine skin is normally more acidic than ours. This is the only formula I know of that uses that fact as a basis for healthy canine skin.
My cockerspaniel has itchy skin and skin staph. Malacetic thoroughly cleansed skin. Makes the hair soft and shiny. She hasn't been scratching at all since her bath.
I would love to review this product, but it was on back order for over 2 months so I cancelled the order. I cant get anything in our pet stores with the antifungle in it and my dog suffers with a skin problem. Hopefully I can ordered it again and you "might" have it...
This is an awesome product if your dog suffers from recurrent yeast infections. My Pit Bull has trouble with his ears and feet getting yeast. The upside- you get to wash your mutts feet and ears weekly. Get the Malacetic Acid ULTRA for daily use. My vet usually recommends treating with daily wash for a week, which just takes two minutes and let them shake it off. Make sure you get the Ultra for yeast treatment and switch to regular for healthy ears.
My shih-tzus used to have itchy skin and after using this product they are doing great. I added SAMe to their diet as well to fight it on both internal and external levels. After shampooing their coats are bright, shiny and feel like silk.
Excellent product. We try to wash our Shitzu every other day to help control his skin problems. This works better than the shampoo the Veternarian sold us. We keep his fur short so we can get to his skin. Works great. Will definitely purchase again.
Our 12 yr old Schnauzer has had skin issues for several years and we finally have it under control with diet and MalAcetic Shampoo. This product has worked wonders on our dog's skin issues and the price is quite reasonable. Thank you
My 7 year old shih tzu has been plagued with skin issues that involved an over prolifertion of yeast and/or bacteria. Her inability to keep the flora on her skin in a correct balance has required lots of diligence on my part over the last 5 years. She has been on atopica, prescription diets, elimination diets, allergy shots and the last two years has undergone bi-monthly rounds of antibiotics and ketoconazole with a bit of prednizone (vanectyl-p) to control the itchy, scaling and hair loss around her chest and neck. I give her a bath every 3 days with a prescribed shampoo (Dermazole for the last year). When I saw that Malacetic Ultra contained ketoconozole which is an anti-fungal I thought 'what the heck, it's worth a try'. Well I have used it 4 times and the results are amazing. Her skin is soft, the scaling is gone and the inflammation is significantly lessened. As a bonus, the shampoo has a very nice smell. This is not a cure - there is still some scaling on her legs and she continues to do some licking, however she is way more comfortable and I am hugely relieved and believe that this shampoo is an important part of her overall care.

Share on FacebookShare on TwitterWith news of Suzy having her wax statue made, Korean netizens are reacting to news of her being the primary Korean femininesuperstarto sign in for Madame Tussauds.
A few days ago, news broke out that Suzy used to be invited to have her wax statue made for Madame Tussauds, making her the 1st Korean female celebrity to do so. As news of this invitation became published, Suzy was noticed being measured and picking a few main points for her exhibition as a section of its press release.
The wax figures constitutenotedfilm stars, singers and sports personalities and are displayed on their respective exhbutions in Hong Kong and London. For the exhibition in Hong Kong, Suzy is the first Korean female celebrity to do so following other celebrities such as Lee Min Ho.
The wax figure could be officially printed in Hong Kong in August and Suzy will be there to introduce it.
Netizens, at the other hand, have not anythingyetcompliment for the singer and actress for achieving such feat int he industry.

Eating more fruit and vegetables may make young people calmer, happier and more energetic in their daily life, according to a new research.
Researchers from the University of Otago in New Zealand investigated the relationship between day-to-day emotions and food consumption.
The results showed a strong day-to-day relationship between more positive mood and higher fruit and vegetable consumption, but not other foods.
"On days when people ate more fruits and vegetables, they reported feeling calmer, happier and more energetic than they normally did," Conner said.
To understand which comes first — feeling positive or eating healthier foods — Conner and her team ran additional analyses and found that eating fruits and vegetables predicted improvements in positive mood the next day, suggesting that healthy foods may improve mood.
The findings held regardless of the Body Mass Index.

Sorry for posting this in two locations, but I'd really like a solution here... thanks!
Hey I just bought the multiple use version of Socrates, I didn't test it first so I haven't installed anything yet. I got my Username and Password. Where can I download the Zip of the theme??
I'm on the download page (http://www.socratestheme.com/downloads/), I got down to download the latest version 2.03, click on it and it takes me to a page which says "Im sorry, you need to be a registered member to access this area. If youre not a member you can get access by purchasing Socrates. Members can login by Clicking here."
I click where it says to, it brings me to a wordpress login screen for some reason, I put in my login name and password which I choose when I bought Socrates... and it takes me back to the download page... when I click on the version 2.03 it takes me back to the sorry page... It also takes me to the sorry page if I click on "get activation code".
This is a huge circle, annoying, and not a promising start, what am I missing here?
PS I also confirmed my "subscription" via email after I bought the theme, so that's not the issue.

The Carroll County Panthers defeated Oldham County, 6-1 on the road Monday. It was the first game of the season for the Panthers, and the first career high school win for head coach Jimmy Ray.
Senior Dillon Craig pitched five innings of scoreless baseball, and senior Derrick Nickell pitched two strong innings in relief.
Craig also led the team at the plate, going 4-5 with four RBIs.
Ray said he thought the team pitched well and played pretty solid defense. If the team does those things, they will win some games, he said.

China PeopleThe Han Chinese (so called for the Han dynasty) make up approximately 92% of the total population. They are linguistically homogeneous in the north, where they speak Mandarin (the basis of the national language, known as putonghua, of China), while in the south Cantonese, Wu, Hakka, and many other dialects are spoken (some 108 dialects are spoken in Fujian prov. alone). Putonghua is spoken as a first or second language by roughly half of the population. The written language is universal; Chinese ideographs are common to all the dialects. Non-Chinese groups represent only about 8% of the population, but the interior regions in which they live constitute more than half of the total area of the country. Among the main non-Chinese minorities are the Zhuang, a Thai-speaking group, found principally in Guangxi; the Hui (Muslims), found chiefly in Ningxia; the Uigurs, who live mainly in Xinjiang; the Yi (Lolo), who live on the borders of Sichuan and Yunnan; the Tibetans, concentrated in Tibet and Qinghai; the Miao, widely distributed throughout the mountainous areas of S China; the Mongols, found chiefly in the Mongolian steppes; and the Koreans, who are concentrated in Manchuria. The constitution of the People's Republic of China provides for religious freedom, but religious practice is not encouraged. Traditionally, Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism, and ancestor worship were practiced in an eclectic mixture with varying appeals, and these religions have experienced a revival. Islam, the largest monotheistic sect, is found chiefly in the northwest. There is also a small but growing Christian minority. In recent years there have been some well-publicized confrontations between the Chinese government and religious groups. Places of worship for unregistered Christian churches and traditional sects have at times been destroyed, leaders of such groups have been sentenced to death on apparently trumped-up charges, and orthodox Islamic practices have been discouraged or suppressed out of fear that they would be a focus for Muslim-minority separatists. In 1999 the government banned the Falun Gong (Buddhist Law), a spiritual group with broad appeal that has organized public protests, and began an ongoing campaign to eradicate the religion. There also have been a number of attempts to assert government control over Tibetan Buddhism. After the 1950s there was a steady migration of Chinese to growing industrial areas in outlying regions such as Xinjiang, Heilongjiang, Inner Mongolia, and Qinghai, which at times has resulted in ethnic tensions and violence. In addition, there has been increased movement to urban areas since the late 1970s; urban dwellers outnumbered rural ones for the first time in 2011. Millions of workers who migrated from rural areas since the late 1990s were unable to obtain permanent jobs or government services in the cities because of the restrictions of the residency registration system, often called hukou. In 2001, under pressure from businesses, the government announced a gradual reform of the hukou system, but most aspects of it remain in place. Sections in this article:

A stepping point for urban entrepreneurship in Rochester
The R.I.T. campus seemed to erupt this afternoon, as community members from across the greater Rochester area traveled to the free "Imagine R.I.T." festival. Families, students and couples, doused in sunscreen and donning orange and brown wear, took a stroll on the Brick City campus anticipating sites that included anything from jugglers to bio-technology student projects. The festival communicated just how innovative R.I.T.'s campus is, harnessing the same excitable energy that exists in the city to which the college owes its name.
Now, 15 minutes away from the campus, Rochester's own historical "Rochester Savings Bank" on Franklin Street, will become a part of that energy as well, with the latest endeavor by R.I.T.'s Saunders School of Business. Showcased at the "Imagine" festival, the site will be the location of The Center for Urban Entrepreneurship. Spearheaded by Dr. Delmonize Smith, an R.I.T. professor in the business college, the Center will be a community-driven learning space for budding entrepreneurs. Focused on increasing the economic development within the city by reaching out to individuals of all socio-economic levels, there are high hopes for the Center and its potential impact on the community's downtown.
Smith, an entrepreneur himself, sees great things coming from the Center.
"There is such a fever pitch in terms of the excitement in Rochester right now and the community, about the Center for Urban Entrepreneurship," said Smith. "The reason why this is the case is because, I believe, there is a tremendous amount of economic development and activities going on in our community, but not everyone is benefitting from and taking part in them."
According to Smith, the abundance of affordable resources, including classes, one-on-one advising, training and mentoring provided by the Center, will increase that number of participants, linking those from the business sector and community.
For Smith, The Center for Urban Entrepreneurship will be a launching point for Rochester residents, with its easily accessible city location.
"Individuals can literally walk to this building, or get on the RGRTA Bus and drive to this building, in a very short period of time. If they are sitting in their living room and they say, 'I want to change my situation, I have an idea,' then within
a matter of minutes, they could be talking to someone who can help them with that," said Smith.
With the help of the project's driven leaders, the Center for Urban Entrepreneurship is ready to make a mark on the City of Rochester. Given a "ready, set, go" from the city, the innovative Center for Urban Entrepreneurship is exactly what the Rochester Institute of Technology stands for, as showcased by the spectacles today, and exactly what the downtown needs.

By default Microsoft Outlook blocks attachment types that are considered to be insecure for use. This is done for security reasons � similar files may contain viruses. However, it sometimes happens that you fully realize the potential danger of using insecure file types, but you must necessarily gain access to them. The standard means of Microsoft Outlook doesn�t allow that. But Attachment Processor has a separate Outlook addon included in it � Blocked Attachments Manager. With the help of it you can manage which file types must be considered �dangerous� and must be blocked, and which � �secure� and the access to them must be allowed.
When you receive a message that contains some dangerous file, this Outlook addon will inform you about it with the following notification:
In order to allow suing blocked file types, launch the component Blocked Attachments Manager (Tools --> Attachment Processor --> Tools --> Blocked Attachments Settings) and in the settings window mark the file types that you want to have access to:
After making changes you should restart Microsoft Outlook for them to be applied. Open Microsoft Outlook and you will see that now you have access to the file types that have been blocked before:
The Blocked Attachments Manager component is on of the three addons inlcuded into the program Attachments Processor for Outlook. You can learn more about other program components and download the trial version at the Attachments Processor for Outlook product page.

Intermittent Motion Applicator
Hello, my name is Chris Turner. I'm the sales director with Roberts PolyPro. Today we're going to show you some new technology that we've come out with. As most of you know and what you can see on our website is we have several different reiterations of our machinery. We have single bottle handle applicators, which utilize a welded, stick design. We can do that in an intermittent motion up to 60 bottles per minute or continuous motion up to 130 bottles per minute.
The new technology that we're going to show you here today is actually our new intermittent motion applicator. On multi-packs, this machine will do up to 20 cases of product per minute. In this design that we've designed here, this is actually taking in loose bottles. It has the ability to put on a multi-pack or also a break-apart multi-pack which will convert into two single bottle handles.
So what we're going to do is we're going to show you the machinery run for about 10 cycles and then we're going to slow the machine down so that you can look underneath the machine and see how the handles are actually broken apart and will form two single bottle handles.

Rain means Colorado mushroom hunting is on
How to find mushrooms safely in Summit County
June 20, 2016
Mushroom permits
The White River National Forest offers free personal-use mushroom permits that allow individuals to harvest as many as 5 gallons per day (approximately two grocery bags) for a season total of 10, 5-gallon buckets, 20 paper grocery bags or 67 pounds. Obtain permits at the Dillon Ranger District, 680 Blue River Parkway, Silverthorne. For national forest areas from Vail Pass to Eagle, visit the Eagle-Holy Cross Ranger District at 24747 U.S. Highway 24 in Minturn. Beyond that, check with regional forest district offices to find out if there are regulations. For commercial permits, which include sale or commercial use of wild mushrooms, contact Cary Green at (970) 827-5160.
Safety tips
- Only eat a mushroom when you are absolutely certain of your ID — using pictures and descriptions, spore prints and other tests — and only after consulting multiple sources on poisonous lookalikes and edibility.
- Don't collect multiple species into one bag.
- Always cook wild mushrooms well. Morels, for instance, are poisonous raw.
- Try one new edible mushroom on yourself in a 24-hour period, eating only a small amount the first time and keeping a specimen in the refrigerator in case you need to visit the toxicologist.
- Don't eat spoiled mushrooms.

Sam Mitchel Herbarium of Fungi at the Denver Botanic Gardens: http://www.botanicgardens.org/content/sam-mitchel-herbarium-fungitarget="_blank">www.botanicgardens.org/content/sam-mitchel-herbarium-fungi
The rainy season is upon us at last. Skies open on a near daily basis, drenching anyone caught out in a cloudburst, followed by the reward of steamy rainbows fronting the sunlight that inevitably streams through. It's a magical time for Colorado mushroom hunters, who will range long and far, through storm and mud, in search of so many surprises. Likewise, it's a happy time of year for mushrooms, which flush into variously colored and shaped fruiting bodies from sometimes miles-long mycelium when the earth is warm and wet.
There are the slippery, gelatinous brown-capped Suillus with their soft, yellow, pore-sponge undersides; peach-colored, blue-staining Lactarius deliciosus; Morchella, the elusive black High Country morel; chanterelles of the genus Cantharellus; puffballs of the generas Calvatia and Lycoperdon and, of course, Boletus edulis, or porcini, the king of kings, with its firm, wine-red cap, bulbous legs and white fish-net stockings. All of these mushrooms are edible, each prepared in its own way.
Of course, there are also outright poisonous ones, such as the psychoactive Amanita muscaria with its bright red cap and white spots, the false morel Gyromitra and a host of LBM's (little brown mushrooms) you don't want to mess with. Some can kill you; others take out your liver — so eating a wild mushroom is never a decision to take lightly.
Leccinum warning
There are also mushrooms Colorado mushroom hunters should be on the lookout for. These mushrooms edibility is subject to debate, such as those in the genus Leccinum. Commonly called scaber-stalks for the brown hashmarks on their stems, or aspen boletes when they occur under aspens, these sponge-pored boletes have cap colors ranging from yellow-orange to red-orange. Some occur in a mycorrhizal relationship with aspens, some with conifers, and some are found in mixed forest zones. Although Leccinums are widely eaten in Europe and have long been considered choice edibles, the Rocky Mountain Poison Center receives occasional reports of severe gastric problems, some requiring hospitalization, from eating moderate amounts of aspen-associated "orange caps," as Vera Stucky Evenson writes in "Mushrooms of Colorado and the Southern Rocky Mountains."
"Some people get very sick. They don't damage your liver, but they can make you vomit and vomit for hours," said Evenson, who curates the Sam Mitchel Herbarium of Fungi at the Denver Botanic Gardens. She told of a family that vomited all night after eating aspen-associated Leccinums. "We recommend you don't eat the ones that grow under aspen, just under conifers — and you have to look all around to make sure there aren't aspens nearby," since the trees' root system can be extensive.
That said, there are people who continue to eat Leccinums without incident, so ultimately, it's up to you whether you want to play vomit roulette.
Fortunately, just witnessing the beauty and diversity of mushrooms in the Rocky Mountain region is an end in itself; so new mushroom hunters needn't feel pressured to consume any off the bat. It takes time to learn enough to make positive identifications with what wild food foraging expert Samuel Thayer calls "contradictory confidence" — so confident that you will fight a person on the point. And that has to happen before taking the risk of eating a wild mushroom.
Those just starting out or seeking answers can join the Colorado Mycological Society (www.cmsweb.org), which offers regional mushroom forays, a cook-and-taste event in October and an upcoming Mushroom Fair at the Denver Botanic Gardens on Aug. 11 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., which is free with paid admission.
"The mushroom club is fun," Evenson said. "Bring your mushrooms in and have them identified."
In the field
Before heading out into the national forest, Colorado mushroom hunters should know that a free personal-use permit is required. These can be obtained from the Dillon Ranger District. If you are visiting another region or state, check with the regional forest service office to find out if there are any regulations.
To collect specimens for study, pluck the whole mushroom and put each species in a separate paper bag or layer of paper in a basket. If you are collecting for the kitchen and know the mushroom you're after, a knife works for cleaning off dirty parts in the field. (I always like to cover my tracks after that so as not to leave a mess, tossing some dirt over a cut stalk or tucking the detritus in the underbrush where the animals can make fast work of it.) A cloth or brush is good to clean off excess dirt, and a basket or pillowcase works for carrying the mushrooms. Or ask around. There are plenty of local folks — both homegrown and from Eastern Europe — who can break down the tricks of the trade for you if you are fortunate enough to win them over.
Don't be lulled into thinking mushroom hunting is like shopping at the grocery store, for besides dirt there are also worms to contend with. Try to go for fresh, firm specimens. They'll be worm-free, if you're lucky, or at least host to small settlements, rather than entire civilizations, that you can cut around with a knife back in the kitchen. If the mushroom is so full of worm masses or activity that the flesh is yellow or brown, or if a piece is extra wormy, it's best to discard it. But a few worm pioneers can be driven off with slicing and drying, or cooked right into a meal for an added protein punch.
Those with the fortitude to brave gray skies, sudden downpours, wiggling worms and the wee hours of dawn are rewarded with one of the earth's most treasured prizes — edible, organic mushrooms growing wild and free.

This is a summary. To read the whole story subscribe to BostonGlobe.com
PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla. — Earlier in spring training a couple of major leagues scouts were watching the Red Sox go through their pregame drills. Unprompted, one of the scouts mentioned Dan Butler, saying he has been very impressed by him. Another scout joined in, saying how much he likes how Butler calls a game and handles veteran pitchers.
Butler is one of the five catchers on the 40-man roster. He is probably the one you've heard the least about.
"Absolutely, he's been under the radar his whole career and I'm dating back to college, too" said Chad Epperson, the team's minor league catching coordinator.
Butler, 27, is entering his sixth season in the organization. He joined the Red Sox as a free agent in July 2009.

MANITOWOC, Wis. -- Manitowoc police say a Craigslist ad offering to sell a 4-year-old boy for $1,000 turned out to be a teenager's joke.
Authorities took the ad seriously when it was placed last week. By the time police got a call from a woman about the ad, it had been removed from Craigslist. But the caller helped detectives contact the suspect.
Detectives became even more concerned when the suspect said the boy had been sold for $1,200 but he would be able to acquire another child.
Police traced the computer to Roncalli High School and a 17-year-old student who posted the ad in class as a joke.
Police say the boy apologized. The Herald Times Reporter says police issued a $681 ordinance citation for disorderly conduct rather than a criminal charge.

Happy belated Halloween! This column is coming in a little late for several reasons, but the one we're talking about is parties. I had three Halloween parties to go to over the course of a week, only one of which I attended for fun. The other two were for business (though they were no less entertaining). The big one was last Saturday, when I invited all my students — plus any friends, siblings, or cousins who wanted to join in — to the community center where I have classes. My friend Leonardo and I had plans to decorate the entire first floor and then have snacks and drinks on the second floor. So when the kiddoes arrived, this is what they saw. My friend is an old hand at this, and he's been accumulating backdrops and decorations for over a decade. We practiced Halloween vocabulary, told stories, and Leo even did a short magic show in his Iron Man costume. We had forty-nine kids show up, ranging in age from two to twelve. The real hero for the day, however, was my friend Nozomi, without whom we would not have managed half so well. She kept the kids in line, helped out kindergartners during the bingo game, and saved the snack area from certain chaos. She was amazing. Nozomi and I have been dating officially for three weekends now, two of which were taken up with Halloween fun and games. It's been a blast, and we both got great comments from people on the street as we strolled down the shopping arcade in costume on the 27th. We weren't the only ones dressed up, though a lot of women opted for the basic kitty cat or cutie devil costumes, and very few men were dressed up at all. We did see a few interesting people here and there, though.

Emuge offers a comprehensive line of clamping solutions ranging from low-volume applications in job shops to high-volume applications in automotive production environments.
With its expanding-bush design, System SG is used in such machining operations as hobbing, shaping and shaving for gear production as well as milling and inspection. According to the company, the system's large amount of surface area contact with the workpiece provides a rigid, accurate and repeatable clamping solution.
The high-precision System SP is used to clamp not only workpieces, but also tools. By applying an axial force, the clamping sleeves move in the direction of the force and expand radially. This eliminates clearance between clamping the sleeve and the body and between the clamping sleeve and the workpiece, the company says. The system achieves concentricity of <0.002 mm (corresponding to approximately <0.0001").
Another clamping solution, System SH, is designed for applications in which there is not enough room for mechanical clamping or for clamping long, thin-walled workpieces. The closed system uses hydraulic pressure to clamp workpieces.
System SZ is designed for workpieces that have a short clamping base or for diameters with a large tolerance. By applying an axial force, a slitted collet is radially expanded by a cone. Simultaneously, an axial movement occurs, clamping the workpiece.
Finally, the diaphragm clamping System SM is ideal for applications in which the eccentricity between pitch circle and seating bore is very small, the company says. It clamps the gear wheel at the pitch circle for machining the seating bore. The gear wheel is clamped in both axial and radial directions.

text: From Our 2011 Archives Relieving Back Pain May Help the BrainLatest Chronic Pain NewsStudy Shows Link Between Back Pain Relief and Possible Easing of Cognitive Impairments By Matt McMillen Reviewed by Laura J. Martin, MD May 18, 2011 -- Chronic lower back pain doesn't just hurt. It also appears to cause thinning of certain regions of the brain, which may lead to cognitive impairments, a study shows. Researchers studying the link between pain and such thinning had hoped that successfully treating back pain would halt that process. Instead, it reversed it. Six months after surgery or spinal injections, a brain region associated with pain -- the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex -- had thickened. "We thought it would be able to slow down the thinning, but to actually recover was pretty amazing," says study researcher Laura S. Stone, PhD, a neuroscientist at McGill University in Montreal. The study is published in The Journal of Neuroscience. Brain Testing for Back Pain PatientsStone and colleagues recruited 18 patients who were seeking treatment for chronic lower back pain, which they had had for at least a year. Prior to treatment, each patient had an MRI to measure cortical brain thickness and to assess brain activity during a simple cognitive test. Fourteen of those patients underwent similar testing half a year later. Their tests were compared to scans of 16 people without back pain. "The extent of the thickening was surprising to us," says study co-researcher David A. Seminowicz, PhD, of the University of Maryland School of Dentistry. "Every patient who had less pain or decreased disability after treatment showed a thickening in that area." That area is the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, which plays an important role in how we perceive pain. While it was the only brain region that showed significant thickening after treatment, several other regions appeared to improve as well. "There was a trend in a lot of different areas to get thicker," says Seminowicz, who is now planning studies to look at the long-term impact that treating back pain may have on the brain. Link Between Pain and Brain FunctionPain also puts increased demands on the brain. Patients with lower back pain show an abnormal amount of brain activity when performing the same tasks as those who do not suffer from such discomfort. They often report difficulty concentrating, says Stone. In testing, they show impaired abilities in cognitive tasks and decision making, which may be related to the distracting influence of pain and the demands it puts on the brain. Stone did not measure how well patients perform on such cognitive tests. But her study does show that patients who had undergone successful treatment for back pain had brain activation levels approaching those of healthy people. While pain appears to be the cause of the thinning, it's not understood exactly how it happens, says Stone. "Is it cells dying? Or do other things happen? Do the cells shrink? We don't know," she says. "But if we can figure out what causes the thinning and the thickening, we may be able to develop therapies that target that mechanism." SOURCES: Laura S.

Genus | Typhlatya (1) |
This small shrimp is whitish overall with some internal red pigment cells (chromatophores). The eyes are also pigmented and are directed upward through the orbit (eye socket). The walking legs are long and slender, and there is a long, simple, spine-like rostrum, but no spines exist on the smooth body surface (carapace) (2).
Nothing is known about the biology of this species.
Known only from Tucker's Town Cave, Bermuda (2).
Found in the brackish water of a sand and silt-bottomed pool in a single, anchialine, limestone cave. Specimens have been collected at a depth of 12 m (2).
Classified as Critically Endangered (CR) on the IUCN Red List 2006 (1).
The threats to this atyid shrimp are unknown, but its confinement to just a single cave place it in an extremely vulnerable position in which habitat degradation or alteration could rapidly lead to its extinction (2).
There are currently no conservation measures underway targeting this species.

bigml 0.4.1
An open source binding to BigML.io, the public BigML API
Latest Version: 4.9.1
BigML makes machine learning easy by taking care of the details required to add data-driven decisions and predictive power to your company. Unlike other machine learning services, BigML creates beautiful predictive models that can be easily understood and interacted with.
These BigML Python bindings allow you to interact with BigML.io, the API for BigML. You can use it to easily create, retrieve, list, update, and delete BigML resources (i.e., sources, datasets, models and, predictions).
This module is licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0.
Please report problems and bugs to our BigML.io issue tracker.
Discussions about the different bindings take place in the general BigML mailing list. Or join us in our Campfire chatroom.
Python 2.6 and Python 2.7 are currently supported by these bindings.
The only mandatory third-party dependencies are the requests, poster and unidecode libraries. These libraries are automatically installed during the setup.
The bindings will also use simplejson if you happen to have it installed, but that is optional: we fall back to Python's built-in JSON libraries is simplejson is not found.
To install the latest stable release with pip:
$ pip install bigml
You can also install the development version of the bindings directly from the Git repository:
$ pip install -e git://github.com/bigmlcom/python.git#egg=bigml_python
Importing the module
To import the module:
import bigml.api
Alternatively you can just import the BigML class:
from bigml.api import BigML
All the requests to BigML.io must be authenticated using your username and API key and are always transmitted over HTTPS.
This module will look for your username and API key in the environment variables BIGML_USERNAME and BIGML_API_KEY respectively. You can add the following lines to your .bashrc or .bash_profile to set those variables automatically when you log in:
export BIGML_USERNAME=myusername export BIGML_API_KEY=ae579e7e53fb9abd646a6ff8aa99d4afe83ac291
With that environment set up, connecting to BigML is a breeze:
from bigml.api import BigML api = BigML()
Otherwise, you can initialize directly when instantiating the BigML class as follows:
api = BigML('myusername', 'ae579e7e53fb9abd646a6ff8aa99d4afe83ac291')
Also, you can initialize the library to work in the Sandbox environment by passing the parameter dev_mode:
api = BigML(dev_mode=True)
Quick Start
Imagine that you want to use this csv file containing the Iris flower dataset to predict the species of a flower whose sepal length is 5 and whose sepal width is 2.5. A preview of the dataset is shown below. It has 4 numeric fields: sepal length, sepal width, petal length, petal width and a categorical field: species. By default, BigML considers the last field in the dataset as the objective field (i.e., the field that you want to generate predictions for).
sepal length,sepal width,petal length,petal width,species 5.1,3.5,1.4,0.2,Iris-setosa 4.9,3.0,1.4,0.2,Iris-setosa 4.7,3.2,1.3,0.2,Iris-setosa ... 5.8,2.7,3.9,1.2,Iris-versicolor 6.0,2.7,5.1,1.6,Iris-versicolor 5.4,3.0,4.5,1.5,Iris-versicolor ... 6.8,3.0,5.5,2.1,Iris-virginica 5.7,2.5,5.0,2.0,Iris-virginica 5.8,2.8,5.1,2.4,Iris-virginica
You can easily generate a prediction following these steps:
from bigml.api import BigML api = BigML() source = api.create_source('./data/iris.csv') dataset = api.create_dataset(source) model = api.create_model(dataset) prediction = api.create_prediction(model, {'sepal length': 5, 'sepal width': 2.5})
You can then print the prediction using the pprint method:
>>> api.pprint(prediction) species for {"sepal width": 2.5, "sepal length": 5} is Iris-virginica
Additional Information
We've just barely scratched the surface. For additional information, see the full documentation for the Python bindings on Read the Docs. Alternatively, the same documentation can be built from a local checkout of the source by installing Sphinx ($ pip install sphinx) and then running:
$ cd docs $ make html
Then launch docs/_build/html/index.html in your browser.
How to Contribute
Please follow the next steps:
- Fork the project on github.com.
- Create a new branch.
- Commit changes to the new branch.
- Send a pull request.

The Hike
The best section of the most scenic long trail in the country is the 203.7-mile
stretch in the central Sierra from Kennedy Meadows Campground to Red's Meadow
Campground. In that span, the PCT crosses Sequoia and Kings Canyon National
Parks and the John Muir Wilderness–and never meets a single road. It's
the longest roadless span on any National Scenic Trail in the country. On the
way, you'll have a chance to summit Mt. Whitney (the Lower 48's highest point
at 14,497 feet) and experience the legendarily gentle weather of California's
central Sierra. Plan for 10 to 15 days to cross this roller coaster of subalpine
and glaciated terrain.
The Crux
River crossings in high, fast, freezing water. After a heavy snow year, creeks
swell to 50 feet wide well into July.
The Key
Astute river scouting, patience, and a "got dunked" plan. The most challenging
streams are Evolution Creek, Bear Creek, and the North Fork of Mono Creek between
Muir Pass and Shelden Pass (miles 145, 162, and 175 respectively). The trail
doesn't always intersect them at the best place to ford, so scout upstream for
shallower crossings. Evolution Creek, for example, is slower and braided into
smaller segments just a third of a mile upstream. But strength in numbers is
the real key, even if it means waiting for more hikers to show up. The most
stable river-crossing method is the tripod: Three hikers unclip their hipbelts,
place their arms on each other's shoulders in a triangle formation, and cross
slowly with the strongest hiker forming the upstream "point" of the triangle.
Before you cross, be sure to look for downstream obstacles to avoid (like rocks,
waterfalls, downed logs) if you lose your footing. And if you do go for a swim,
immediately stop and warm up once you reach dry land: Build a small fire, make
a hot drink, and eat a calorie-dense snack, like peanut butter. Still chilled?
Do push-ups.
The Way
From Piersonville, take US 395 three miles north to J41, a dirt road leading
22 miles to Kennedy Meadows Campground. From Mammoth Lakes, take CA 203 (Minaret
Rd.) 13.1 miles to Red's Meadow Campground.
Plan It

for maps and Yogi's PCT Handbook ($25, pcthandbook.com)

Traditional decor in Floral Park
Imagine you lived somewhere far away. Let's say the English countryside in a quaint brick cottage to the rear of a wide green lawn.
Of course, there is a historic-sized oak out front casting dappled shade along the walk and plenty of wrens flittering between the boxwoods.
Far away is not a far stretch when you live along one of the wide streets in Floral Park in Santa Ana. For interior designer Cynthia Dalton Wilsie, creating a home here isn't about buying anything new – including her 1926-era home.
Creating interiors wasn't a sudden impulse either.
"Back in the 1940s and '50s, my grandfather was an executive at Ford Motor Co. My grandmother had a knack for creating a showcase home. They entertained frequently. She had a fork for everything," Wilsie said.
Wilsie started out studying fashion merchandising. Her roommate in college studied interior design.
"I realized when we both graduated that I made a mistake," she said. "Interiors were way more interesting to me."
Wilsie married, moved to California and continued her studies at the Design Institute in Newport Beach. They've lived in their cottage home for 27 years.
"Lots of my furniture pieces were my grandmother's. She traveled extensively and got many of her pieces in England," Wilsie said.
The twin beds in the guest room were bought from Edsel Ford.
But even with British touches throughout the home, Wilsie doesn't describe her look as English.
"I'd call it traditional," she said.
The living room is more formal than the rest of the house, with moldings, gold accents and chinoiserie touches.
The inspiration for the guest room was a well-traveled leather suitcase passed down from her grandfather.
Mixing leopard prints with blue ceramics in the dining room requires a skill that few designers possess.
"A lot of the layering we did was to disguise the old imperfect walls of the house," Wilsie said.
The house wasn't exactly a wreck when the Wilsies moved in. But it was dated with a 1980s Waverly-inspired matchy-matchy look.
"It wasn't my taste," Wilsie said.
They loved some of the details such as the paneled walls and wood floors. But moldings and wall coverings needed updating.
"We whittled away at it over time," Wilsie said.
The kitchen is a departure from the warm colors of the rest of the home. With apple-green walls and white cupboards, Wilsie wanted her small galley kitchen to look larger than it is.
"My grandmother was my true teacher," Wilsie said. "She was old-school and taught me so much. How to go to museums, which fork to use, how to eat out in restaurants."
When her grandfather retired from Ford, he bought a flower shop – explaining Wilsie's desire for fresh flowers around her home.

Hi! I just found your blog today. I saw your Dandelion art posted somewhere which led me to you. My daughter used to be IN LOVE with dandelions...or as she called them...wishing flowers. She wanted to buy them from the florist! So I am a huge sucker for beautiful dandelion art. Thanks for sharing. I plan to copy this when we move.
