Marriage Information
Overheard in GenForum, September 05, 2002
Q: I am looking for information on the marriage of Richard David White and Lucy Francis (don't know if this is the last name or not). They may have been married in the Richmond, Virginia area. My grandmother, Myra D. White was born on 28 Oct 1893 and had an uncle named Henry/Harry White. They had lived in Oregon Hill area. His obituary stated that his funeral services were held at Pine Street Baptist Church. I'm looking for additional information on siblings of both sets of parents. -- Judith
A: There are a number of different resources you will probably find yourself turning to in this research. Vital records, census records, perhaps newspapers, and church records come immediately to mind. In order to get the information you seek, as you may see, you will probably need to cast a wider net where your research is concerned.
While there are those who say that your research should be easy given the timeframe, if there is one thing that I have come to discover in researching family trees it is that there are no guarantees in this hobby. While some time periods are easier to research than others, just because you are in one does not mean that you will definitely find what you are searching for.
Exhaust all records to increase your research odds.
What You Know
Armed with what you already know it was possible to identify Richard and his family in the 1900 census. You will find them living at 213 Canal Street in the Monroe Ward of Richmond City, Henrico County, Virginia. This is Enumeration District 69, sheet 1A, line 1.
The 1900 census is useful for many different reasons. First it supplies the month and year of birth for each person enumerated in a household. Since you shared Myra D.'s birth date and I found Richard D. White, with wife Lucy F., and a daughter Myra D. who was born October 1893, I felt confident that this was indeed the family you are researching.
The 1900 census told me that Richard D. White was born June 1859 in Virginia of parents also born in Virginia. His wife Lucy F. was born March 1861 in Virginia of parents born in Virginia. There were two children listed, Myra D. from whom you descend and also a younger sister, Mabel Earl, born June 1899 in Virginia. According to the census, Lucy F. was the mother of two children and two children were living, which indicated to me that the two daughters were the only two she had. Under the number of years married for Richard and Lucy was listed 19 years.
The 1900 census offers a lot of information from which to work from. When coupled with other records, such as the obituary you mentioned, it is possible that you have quite a bit of information to continue your research.
Where to Turn?
Armed with the information listed, I turned my attention first to the Family History Library and its vast holdings. Through their microfilmed collection, it is often possible to gather a lot of information with minimal expense. Instead of either having to travel to the location in question or perhaps paying $10.00 to $15.00 for a certificate, it is often possible to get the same information by renting a few microfilm through your local Family History Center at a fraction of the cost. The Family History Library Catalog is available online with entries through August 2001. There is a CD-ROM version available with catalog entries through April 2002. This is probably the most up to date version with the exception of the catalog available on the computers at the Family History Library itself, which are updated weekly.
I will admit that I was surprised to find that marriage records for Richmond City, which is an independent city, did not go up to 1900. In fact, the birth records for the city that are available on microfilm covered an impressive time span, beginning in 1878 and going up to 1953. The marriages however, go only up to 1878 and are not the microfilms of the originals, but instead are primarily published abstracts. There is one microfilm reel of the marriage register from 1853 to 1878, but this is a short period of time given the history of the state. So unfortunately, while you can get the microfilms for the birth records of Myra D. and her sister Mabel Earl White, you cannot get the marriage record this way.
Ordinarily the next step would be to turn to church records. Whenever you are turning your attention to church records, it is a good idea to be familiar with the record-keeping practices of the denomination in question. For the Baptists, you will want to check out the Encyclopedia of Southern Baptists, in 3 volumes (Nashville: Broadman, 1958); F. Wilbur Helmbold's "Baptist Records for Genealogy and History," National Genealogical Quarterly 61 (September 1973); pages 168-78. And I think you will find that in the Baptist faith that marriages were not usually recorded in church records. A few pastors may have made some notations in their personal records, but those are few and far between. However, you may want to visit or contact the Library of Virginia , as they have some extensive holdings of Southern Baptist church records.
Finally, you want to write to main archive for the Southern Baptists. Your first letter to them should be to inquire as to the holdings and if they would have the records you need. I would also suggest that you include a self-addressed stamped envelope when you send your inquiry. You can write to them at:
Southern Baptist Historical Library and Archive
901 Commerce Street, Suite 400
Nashville, TN 37203-3630
Telephone: 615-244-0344
A Little Further Digging
Because Richard D. White and Lucy F. were not married until 1881, I did a little further digging. I did some research in the 1880 census, and discovered a Richard D. White, born circa 1860 (which means he was listed as age 20 on the census) living in the house of a brother, Richard R. White, age 24. The family, which includes other brothers and sisters and a mother, Lucy A. White, age 42, are living in Huguenot, Powhatan County, Virginia. As this is a county adjacent to Henrico, in which the independent city of Richmond is found, it certainly should be further investigated. You will find the family on page 142C.
If you haven't done so already, you will want to visit the Henrico County, Virginia USGenWeb page to learn more about Henrico County and the Independent City of Richmond. Specifically, you will want to learn about requesting vital records.
It appears that Henrico County's courthouse is where you will find the marriage records. You can write to them at:
Henrico County Courthouse
4301 E. Parham Road
Richmond, Virginia 23228
In Conclusion
As you can see, some of your research will be done on the Internet, but more of it is likely to be accomplished either through correspondence with the court house or the various archives mentioned above. At least with the information in the 1900 census, you have a potential year of marriage, 1881. I would however, consider marriages from 1880 to 1882 as well. Also, the birth record for Myra D. White through the microfilmed records will at the very least supply you with the maiden name for Lucy F., and then perhaps you can look for her in the earlier census records as well.

WHY DO WE LOSE! Perlsteins readers just kept asking the worlds most important question: // link // print // previous // next //
Howard Kurtz should rent a plane: Howard Kurtz so loves the press corps that he and the press corps should go rent a room.
Check that! Howard Kurtz so loves the press that he should go rent a tow plane! On Labor Day, he could tow banners up and down the beach, helping sun-bathers count the ways he loves the mainstream press.
Lets be fair. Kurtz made some accurate statements in yesterdays piece in the Washington Post. Its true: Even when they report the facts, [the media] have had trouble influencing public opinion. Lets expand on that a bit: On their own, no matter how hard they tried, the mainstream press could never create a well-informed debate. Disinformation spreads from many sources, including the nations talk-radio programs. No matter how hard they tried, mainstream press organs, on their own, could never repel that vast tide.
But how hard does the mainstream press really try? At this point, Kurtzs love for the mainstream press took over yesterdays effort. On Olympus, the gods roared with laughter when a smitten lover typed this:
Good God. On Olympus, the deities roared with laughter. Here on earth, our analysts searched for the wondrous report in which NBC Nightly News examined the intricacies of the public option.
NBCs report was Kurtzs first example of the way the press has labored to explain the intricacies of the competing blueprints. And uh-oh! NBCs reportthe report to which Kurtz likely referredwas about 370 words long!
On Nexis, NBC has given its mouse a mighty title: Making Sense of It All: The public option portion of Obamas proposed health care overhaul. Sadly, what follows is that full report, as offered by Tom Costello. Howard Kurtz so loves the press, he seems to regard this sort of thing as detailed coverage:
In fact, Costello examined only one question: How much health reform might cost. Despite the NBC headline, he devoted little attention to the public option portion of Obama's health care overhaul.
Is this the report Kurtz had in mind? No idea. But how well has NBC covered health care? Even in exploring the limited question of costs, Costello did a rather poor job on this particular evening.
This was not a great report. Costello tilted, from start to finish, in favor of anti-tax sentiment. Right from the start, his report was offered from the point of view of the many Americans for whom the cost of health care reform could be like a bitter pill. And he tended to exaggerate the overall size of that tax hike. Please note: He never said how much of that trillion-dollar price tag might be offset by those changes to Medicare and Medicaid. A viewer would thus have no idea how big the overall tax hike might be.
This just wasnt a good report, even allowing for its limited length. And yet, to Kurtz, it may have been Example The First of the way his lover has labored. Those who say the media haven't dug into the details aren't looking very hard, he said, balling his fists as he prepared to defend his loves reputation.
Question: Could Kurtz have meant the August 12 Nightly News report by Kelly ODonnell? (Headline: Term public option provokes strong reaction.) This report was about the public option. But like almost all reports on network news shows, it too was very shortagain, roughly 370 words. Sorry. ODonnells report dug into the details of very few intricacies.
Nightly News has done no other reporting on the public option. Despite what Kurtz wrote, NBC News has dug into very few details in its reporting.
We think we know where Labor Day morning will find our love-cursed reporter. Near dawn, hell sneak from his motel room, shutting the door behind him softly so his love can continue to doze. (Its the one thing she does truly well.) Hell head for the airport and fuel up his plane. From there, its off to the beaches!
How much does Howard Kurtz love the press? Let his banners count the ways! Sun-bathers will glance up as he flies by, distracted from the information on their talk radio programs.
How the New York Times digs into details: How does the New York Times report the intricacies of the health care debate? The papers reporting often seems to represent a form of pure madness.
This morning, the Times offers a short but intriguing report about the possibility of rationing under proposed health reform. Headline: Policy Experts Call Fear of Medical Rationing Unfounded.
Unfounded! You see, reporter Reed Abelson spoke to some actual experts. And according to Abelsons news report, policy experts...say there is nothing in the current proposals in Washington to suggest that the country is likely to embark on a system of medical rationing anytime soon.
Wow! According to Abelsons reporting, claims of rationing look like a big bunch of bunk! But so what? Abelsons report rates a mere 536 words. Its crammed at the bottom of page A10. It runs as an adjunct to a much longer front-page report, in which someone who isnt a policy expert is allowed to broadcast his outlook.
That non-expert is Bob Collier, a 62-year-old Georgia salesman who recently told his congressman, at a town hall meeting, that proposed health reform may lead to rationing! Repeat: What follows appears on this mornings front page. Bob Collier, who isnt a policy expert, spoke to Rep. Sanford Bishop:
Does Bob Collier know what hes talking about? On page A10, the Times reports the apparent answer: No! But so what? Out on page one, Bob Colliers calmer, more reasoned voice is telling Times readers that rationing looms. Only much later does Sack let us know where Collier gets his information:
Well guess that Bob Collier is completely sincere. But his information comes from Rush Limbaugh! But so what? This morning, Collier is featured on the Times front page, where hes praised for his calm, reasoned manner. The experts, who say hes full of old shoes, are buried at the bottom of page A10, in a much shorter report.
Kurtzs love affair to the side, this is the way the New York Times labors to explain health care.
Astonishing! Sacks report about Bob Collier gets 1085 words. It features three photos; this includes a color photo on page one, and a very large photo of Collier inside, on page A10. Sack makes little attempt to help readers know if Collier knows what hes talking about.
In his own report, Abelson says that Collier is most likely wrong. But so what? His report is shortand its buried. There are no photos of the policy experts who say Collier is full of old shoes.
This is the third long article in recent days in which the Times has presented the fears of relatively uninformed peoplerelatively uninformed people like Collier. (See THE DAILY HOWLER, 8/20/09.) There is a definite role for this kind of reporting, but the Times doesnt seem to know what it is. On this mornings front page, Times readers are essentially reading the things Rush Limbaugh has recently said! Kurtz still dreams of the wonderful ways his lover has dealt with this topic.
You inhabit a crazy political culture. With apologies: For many years, your mainstream press corps has seemed to be mentally ill.
PART 1THE WORLDS MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION: Rick Perlstein did an on-line discussion at the Washington Post last week. Friend, are you a frustrated liberal or Democrat? Are you tired of seeing your keister get kicked in the nations political wars? If so, four of Ricks interlocutors posed versions of the worlds most important question. (For the full discussion, click here.)
We posted three of those excellent questions last week (see THE DAILY HOWLER, 8/20/09). They ought to be studied in detail.
Steve had written a street-fighting piece about the crazy people who have appeared at recent town hall meetings. Whatever one thinks of those particular voters, support of Obamas health care proposals has been droppingin part, driven down by deeply demagogic claims by Republican elders. In particular, Republican leaders like Palin and Grassley have told the public that Obamas plan contains something fairly described as death panels. The claim is absurdprofoundly demagogic. And it has been widely believed.
Palin and Grassley paraded about, baldly misleading the public. Talk-radio demagogues jumped into line, eager to push the claim forward. At the Washington Post, Fred Hiatt kept printing columns which seemed to say that there really was something to the death panel fears. (Even though the literal claim was rubbish!) The claim was rubbishbut continued to spread. Support for reform plans diminished.
How can Republicans win debates with such demagogic claims? If youre a frustrated liberal or Dem, its the worlds most significant question.
On the day of that on-line discussion, Steves second questioner went right to this point. What can a fairly sane person do about this sort of nonsense?
What actions might a sane person take in the face of such claims, this reader asked. Before long, a reader from Wisconsin posed a similar question:
This reader added an accurate pointin the past few decades, the fringe have often seemed to be in charge in our political discourse. Soon, a reader in Boston took the question one step further. Why dont Democrats know how to deal with such nonsense, this reader asked:
We ourselves had cringed as liberals and Democrats used the term end-of-life discussions, thus sounding like they might be confirming a charge even as they tried to deny it. For our money, a fourth questioner captured the sheer absurdity of our political discourse:
This writer liked Perlsteins original article. (On balance, we didnt.) But like the questioner from Boston, this writer seems to have noticed the liberal worlds general lack of skill in such discussions. This writer has noticed something important: In recent decades, Democrats and liberals have often been defeated by ridiculous and blatant falsehoods! No, there are no death panels in these proposed bills. But then, Al Gore never said he invented the Internet! But so what? For twenty straight months in 1999 and 2000, the public all heard something different.
For the most part, liberals and Democrats didnt even try defending their man.
Why dont Democrats (and liberals) know how to deal with this sort of thing? These writers all more-or-less asked the same question. But the Derry writer seemed to have noticed something else. This critical question wasnt covered in Perlsteins original article, he said.
For ourselves, we thought Perlsteins answers to these on-line questions were weak; well plan to look at those answers on Friday. We dont mean that as a criticism of Perlstein, whose Nixonland we strongly recommend; theres no reason why an outstanding historian should also be the worlds top expert on how to win messaging wars. But does anyone know how to answer those questions? At the upper end of the mainstream press corps, Paul Krugman has been the smartest, most important liberal voice since the late 1990s, by far. (And he holds the Nobel Prize in economics!) But alas! In Mondays column, we thought Krugman seemed a bit weak on this question too. More on that to come.
Death panels are just the latest example! For decades, liberals and Dems have gotten slaughtered in the political messaging wars. Perlsteins readers wanted to know why our side cant seem to play this game. Why the hell do we keep getting beaten, even by ridiculous falsehoods?
Friend, if youre a frustrated liberal, its the worlds most important question! Well be discussing that critical question for the next several weeks.

Executive Summary
[ « Previous || Next » ]
"It is not a lie when you are ordered to lie."
a senior Iraqi biological weapons official
In December 1998, when U.N weapons inspector Dr. Richard Spertzel became exasperated by Iraqi evasions and misrepresentations, he confronted Dr. Rihab Taha, the woman the Iraqis identified as the head of their biological weapons program and asked her directly, "You know that we know you are lying. So why do you do it?" She straightened herself up and replied, "Dr. Spertzel, its not a lie when you are ordered to lie."1
Dr. Taha's brief reply is one symbol of a highly developed, well disciplined, and expertly organized program designed to win support for the Iraqi regime through outright deceit. This elaborate program is one of the regime's most potent weapons for advancing its political, military, and diplomatic objectives. In their disinformation and propaganda campaigns, the Iraqis use elaborate ruses and obvious falsehoods, covert actions and false on-the-record statements, and sophisticated preparation and spontaneous exploitation of opportunities. Many of the techniques are not new, but this regime exploits them more aggressively and effectively and to more harmful effect than any other regime in power today.
In the weeks ahead, as the international community seeks to enforce UN Security Council resolutions and disarm the Iraqi regime, governments, the media, and the public are urged to consider the regime's words, deeds, and images in light of this brutal record of deceit.
Apparatus of Lies discusses the lies that Iraq has used to promote its propaganda and disinformation in four broad categories:
The Iraqi regime uses several tools in various combinations to disseminate false information and images in the expectation that supporters and commentators will cause it to reverberate through the media. Many of these falsehoods die quickly, but even the most implausible claims can find believers or at least a permanent home in the public record. Under certain circumstances, some will gain vigor and continue to be repeated and grow, even after they have been proven false.
The Iraqis have adapted and varied their mix of themes and techniques over the years, depending on the situation, and they have quickly seized new opportunities to spread false information. Iraqs disinformation effort is serious and sophisticated. The regime commits substantial resources to this effort and has achieved some remarkable successes.
An important priority of Saddam's deception apparatus is to manipulate the televised images the world sees. This is accomplished by controlling the movements of foreign journalists, monitoring and censoring news transmissions, disseminating old or fake footage, and carefully staging events or scenes. The regime's most cynical strategy is to actually cause severe civilian hardship or even deaths and then exploit the Iraqi peoples suffering by placing the blame on UN-imposed sanctions or other nations.
Recent U.S. government reports, including A Decade of Defiance and Deception, have documented Saddam's deceit regarding UN resolutions and weapons inspections. In order to raise awareness of many of the regime's other forms of deception, particularly those likely to be repeated, Apparatus of Lies examines the facts behind Iraqi disinformation and propaganda since 1990. Given the nature and history of the regime, evidence of further deception is almost certain to come to light.

There has always been a debate on:
What are the most important interpersonal skills of a Project Manager?
I have observed PMP aspirants are most curious to know.
May be because this is a potential question and most of the questionnaire bank have included it in their package as well.
The project manager is the orchestra conductor.
He is the soul of the project and is responsible for the failure and success of the project.
The project manager normally uses all tools from his toolbox in order to make the project a success.
Besides, all hard core technical skills (If he/s has any), which may not be a requirement in the project,
has to have all the required necessary soft skills.
So, when we talk of soft skills, the PMBOK4 guide has placed Section G page 417 referring to almost all project manager skills.
Like: Leadership, Team Building, Motivation, Communication, Influencing, Decision making, Political and Cultural Awareness and Negotiation.
Although, a project manager might not have all these skills but they are considered good.
But, one key interpersonal skills for a project manager is considered vital among all project management skills.
What makes one skill stand out as most important besides other Skills of a Project Manager:
According to Dr. Kerzner: 90% of Project Manager time is spend in communicating: In his book: Project Management: A Systems Approach to Planning, Scheduling, and Controlling , which can be used for PMP Exam Preparation as well.
PMI® conducted a survey http://blogs.pmi.org/blog/voices_on_project_management/2008-poll-results.html#softskills , and the result was the most important skill a project manger must have is Communication.
The biggest example is the PMBOK guide itself.
The guide has placed all the above soft skills mentioned in an appendix,
while a whole knowledge area is dedicated in the form of Project Communication Management Chapter.
Communication is the most important skill for a Project Manager.
What are your thoughts ?
- What other skills you think are most important for a successful project manager.
- Why a project manager must have it?

from mobilisation to the armistice
Goodbye To Colonel Garrett
The month of February saw much change for the 4th Battalion.
The Battalion had since its acclimatisation to trench warfare, been serving in the front line trenches south of Armentiers between Richeborg and Neuve Chapelle.
February 17th saw the Battalion distraught as it's Commanding Officer, Colonel Frank Garrett, was invalided to hospital suffering from complete exhaustion.
His personal care for the men of 'his' Battalion, had taken a toll upon his own health and it was decreed that he must be sent home for complete rest.
Distraught at having to leave the Battalion on the battlefield, Frank's health never did fully recover. In his place, Major Turner took over command of the Battalion.
On 22nd February, Lieutenant-Colonel Cruddas, who had until then commanded the 41st Dogras; an Indian Army Regiment within the 3rd (Lahore) Division, took over command of 4th Suffolk.
Cruddas was to command the Battalion through the following difficult days that were to follow, earning them their most famous Battle Honour of the Great War.

Supreme Court Judgments
N. Santosh
Hegde & B.P. Singh B.P. Singh, J.
appellant herein was charged of having committed the offence punishable under
Section 21 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985
(hereinafter referred to as 'the NDPS Act') and was put up for trial before the
Ist Additional Sessions Court, Ernakulam. The case of the prosecution was that
on 10th October, 1993 at about 7.45 p.m. he was found in possession of 25 ampoules of
manufactured drug, namely Buprenorphine Hydrocholride (Tidigesic) alongwith
three syringes when he was apprehended on the road near Blue Tronics Junction, Palluruthy.
The learned Additional Sessions Judge by his judgment and order dated 5th March, 1994 acquitted the appellant of the
charge levelled against him.
appeal by the State being Criminal Appeal No. 533 of 1994 the acquittal of the
appellant was set aside and the appeal preferred by the State was allowed. The
appellant was found guilty of the offence punishable under Section 21 of the
NDPS Act and was sentenced to undergo rigorous imprisonment for 10 years and to
pay a fine of rupees one lakh, in default to undergo simple imprisonment for
one year.
appellant preferred an appeal before this Court being Criminal Appeal No. 1022
of 1997 but the same was dismissed by this Court by judgment and order dated 7th August, 2001.
appellant then filed a review petition being Review Petition (Crl.) No.1236 of
2001 which was allowed by this Court and the appeal restored to its original
number. The appeal has now been placed before us for disposal.
allowing the review petition this Court observed that the appellant should have
taken up a plea in the light of the decision of this Court in Hussain vs. State
of Kerala : (2000) 8 SCC 139 in which the same article Buprenorphine Hydrocholride
(Tidigesic) was found to be a psychotropic substance and the quantity which was
found in possession of the accused was within the prescribed limit, being a
small quantity. Consequently benefit of the same was granted to the accused in
that case and he was acquitted. This Court felt, while allowing the review petition,
that the appellant should be permitted to take up that contention in this case
in order to prevent a miscarriage of justice. This Court noticed that the total
quantity involved is 25 ampoules of Buprenorphine Hydrocholride (Titidigesic)
of 2 ml. each. Counsel for the State of Kerala submitted that the limit of small quantity as per the Notification is 1
gm. Thus the total quantity seized from the appellant would fall within the
limit of small quantity used for medicinal purposes. The appellant was
permitted to file a petition seeking permission to raise additional grounds in
the appeal.
application has been filed by the appellant for permission to urge additional
grounds in his appeal. We allow the said application.
It was
not disputed before us by the learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State
that the total quantity seized from the appellant would fall within the limit
prescribed under Section 27 of small quantity to be used for medicinal purpose,
namely 1 gm. It is also not contended that the quantity seized from the
appellant was in excess of the quantity prescribed under Rule 66.
21 of the NDPS Act, as it stood at the relevant time provided as follows :-
"21. Punishment for contravention in relation to manufactured drugs and
preparations. Whoever, in contravention of any provision of this Act, or any
rule or order made or condition of licence granted thereunder manufactures,
possesses, sells, purchases, transports, imports inter State, exports
inter-State or uses any manufactured drug or any preparation containing any
manufactured drug shall be punishable with rigorous imprisonment for a term
which shall not be less than ten years but which may extend to twenty years and
shall also be liable to fine which shall not be less than one lakh rupees but
which may extend to two lakh rupees ;
that the court may, for reasons to be recorded in the judgment, impose a fine
exceeding two lakh rupees." It is thus apparent that what is made
punishable under Section 21 is, - possession, sale, purchase etc. of the drugs
and preparations mentioned therein in contravention of any provision of the Act
or any rule or order made or condition of licence granted thereunder.
Obviously, therefore, if any rule permits a person to possess any psychotropic
substance within the limits specified under the rule and subject to such
conditions as the rule may prescribes, such a person cannot be held guilty of
the offence under Section 21 of the Act if it is shown that his possession is
not in contravention of such rule.
66 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Rules, 1985 (hereinafter referred
to as 'the NDPS Rules') provides as follows :-
Possession, etc. of psychotropic substances.
No person shall possess any psychotropic substance for any of the purpose
covered by the 1945 Rules, unless he is lawfully authorized to possess such
substance for any of the said purposes under these Rules.
Notwithstanding anything contained in sub-rule (1), any research institution,
or a hospital or dispensary maintained or supported by Government or local body
or by charity or voluntary subscription, which is not authorized to possess any
psychotropic substance under the 1945 Rules, or any person who is not so
authorized under the 1945 Rules, may possess a reasonable quantity of such
substance as may be necessary for their genuine scientific requirements or
genuine medical requirements, or both for such period as is deemed necessary by
the said research institution or, as the case may be, the said hospital or
dispensary or person :
that where such psychotropic substance is in possession of an individual for
his personal medical use the quantity thereof shall not exceed one hundred
dosage units at a time.
The research institution, hospital and dispensary referred to in sub-rule (2)
shall maintain proper accounts and records in relation to the purchase and
consumption of the psychotropic substance in their possession." Sub-rule
(2) therefore permits a person to keep in his possession for his personal
medicinal use the psychotropic substance upto one hundred dosage units at a
In the
instant case there is evidence on record which indicates that the appellant
used the said drug and this is obvious from the deposition of the Investigating
Officer, PW-3 as well as the deposition of his mother, DW.1. Moreover three
syringes were also recovered from the appellant which also is indicative of the
fact that the psychotropic substance recovered from him was for his personal
consumption and not for trading purposes.
similar circumstances this Court in Ouseph @ Thankachan vs. State of Kerala
(Criminal Appeal No. 1256 of 2001 disposed of on 6th December, 2001) drew such an inference. There also the accused was found
to possess 110 ampoules of the same psychotropic substance together with two
In Hussain
vs. State of Kerala (supra) the appellant was found to
possess 6 ampoules of the same psychotropic substance. This Court allowed the
appeal preferred by the accused giving him the benefit of Rule 66 of the NDPS
Rules which permitted the appellant to keep in his possession for his personal
medicinal use the psychotropic substance upto 100 dosage units at a time.
counsel for the State submitted that unless the appellant held a permit granted
under Rule 66 of the NDPS Rules, he cannot claim benefit under the provisions
of that Rule. We find no substance in the argument because having regard to the
provisions of Section 9 of the NDPS Act under which the Rules have been framed,
the Central Government is empowered by Rules to permit and regulate the matters
mentioned therein. Rule 66 itself permits possession of psychotropic substance
below a specified quantity and subject to the conditions stated therein. Thus
if the possession of psychotropic substance is justified under the said Rule,
no separate permit is required to be issued to the person possessing such
psychotropic substance because the Rule itself permits possession of such
psychotropic substance to the extent mentioned in the Rule and subject to the
conditions laid down therein. Thus following the principle laid down in Hussain
vs. State of Kerala (supra) and having regard to the provisions of Rule 66 of
the NDPS Rules read with Section 21 of the NDPS Act, we are satisfied that the
psychotropic substance namely, - Buprenorphine Hydrocholride (Tidigesic) found
in possession of the appellant was not in breach of Rule 66 of the NDPS Rules
and having regard to the fact that the same was for his personal consumption,
no offence under Section 21 of the NDPS Act is made out.
In the
result this appeal is allowed and the appellant is acquitted of the charge levelled
against him. The appellant is on bail. His bail bonds are discharged.

KUNSHAN, China (June 17, 2014) — Cooper Tire & Rubber Co. has opened a $23 million Asia Technical Center (ATC) at the site of its Cooper (Kunshan) Tire Co. Ltd. venture in Kunshan.
The 54,000-sq.-ft. facility will focus on designing and developing passenger and truck tires primarily for China and the Asia market, Cooper executives said at a June 12 dedication ceremony.
"The new Asia Technical Center is a key investment to support our growth in China and throughout Asia," said Allen Tsaur, vice president and general manager of Cooper Tire Asia.
Cooper said construction of the center took about nine months. The tire maker spends about 1.5 percent of its annual revenue on R&D, according to its financial statements.
"Our two strategic focus areas for Asia are passenger/truck tire growth and continued expansion of our successful work within the original equipment (OE) market. Working with OEs such as Great Wall and BAIC ultimately translates to consumer demand for replacement tires," he added, "and it is the best way to continue to grow our brand as we simultaneously expand distribution points to serve consumers throughout Asia."
The ATC was relocated to Kunshan from Shanghai to a facility constructed specifically for Cooper's research and development activities and staff of 65 material scientists and tire engineers, Cooper said.
The ATC is one of four technical centers Cooper operates; the others are in Melksham, England, and at Cooper's headquarters in Findlay, Ohio.
Also attending the dedication ceremony were Chuck Yurkovich, vice president, global research and development; and Gavin Edwards, general manager of the ATC.
Mr. Yurkovich said the new facility reflects Cooper's continued improvement over time to its technical capabilities, placing a strong emphasis on "speed to market and the launch of exceptional products.
"We develop 'ready-to-use' advanced technology that we call upon when needed to introduce new products around the world," he said, "and we also pursue select innovative technology to achieve a competitive advantage through developing new and enhanced tire and materials technology."
Mr. Edwards noted that locating the tech center on the grounds of the Kunshan plant offers many advantages, including speed.
"With a plant nearby, we have the opportunity to test and interact with the people and equipment that actually produces our tires," he said. "It allows us to respond quickly to all of our customers, particularly OE vehicle manufacturers, which have high levels of technical demands, as we evolve to create and manufacture the best tires for drivers in China and throughout Asia."
The Kunshan plant is the former Cooper Kenda Tire Manufacturing (Kunshan) Co. Ltd. joint venture with Taiwan's Kenda Rubber Industrial Co. Ltd. that Cooper bought outright in 2011 for $116.5 million.

Agricultural sector
The combination of agriculture and solar energy on the same piece of land is, as far as Trio Investment is concerned, the future of land-based solar energy. We are committed to real dual use: for arable farming, that means growing strips of land between the panels, or growing shadow crops underneath the panels. For cattle farmers, it offers the possibility to let the cattle walk between and under the panels. With the additional advantage that the livestock is protected against heat stress and precipitation.
Additional benefits
In addition, it offers even more benefits to the farmer: on their agricultural land he or she now receives twice the income; 1) from the sale of agricultural products and 2) income from land rent for the production of renewable energy. This renewable energy can then be used in business operations, which means that the agricultural products meet certain sustainability requirements and can therefore often be sold with a premium. Think of the PlanetProof milk, where the milk yields 2 cents per liter more.
We strive for an optimum harmony between agricultural use and fitting in with the landscape. Together with you and the local stakeholders the best design is determined. This, so that local benefits will come out of it. For example, the project can provide ecological reinforcement by planting flowers and herbal grassland around it. But also, other good ideas can often be fitted in, which strengthens the bond with the local municipality and population.
At various locations in the Netherlands we are already working with farmers to realize this.
Do you have a suitable location for both agriculture and energy production? Would you like to know more about how we would proceed? And would you like to design the farm of the future together with us? We are happy to meet with you and make an offer tailored to your specific situation.
You can leave your details here and our team will contact you as soon as possible.
Green Farm Energy
In the agricultural sector we work together with our partner Schep Makelaardij under the name Green Farm Energy.

Sunitinib showed activity in the treatment of mucosal and acral melanoma whether or not the patients had a KIT mutation, according to a new study published online ahead of print in the journal Cancer; however, it was poorly tolerated and no patient experienced a prolonged response.
Patients with mucosal and acral melanoma have limited treatment options available to them and a poor prognosis. Some patients with this subtype of skin cancer possess a mutation in the KIT oncogene, which can be targeted by the kinase inhibitor, sunitinib.
For the multicenter phase 2 trial, researchers enrolled 52 patients with unresectable stage 3 or 4 mucosal or acral melanoma. Patients were assigned to receive either sunitinib 50 mg daily for 4 weeks of a 6-week cycle or sunitinib 37.5 mg daily continuously.

Results showed that four patients achieved partial responses lasting between 5 and 10 months. Of those, one patient possessed a KIT mutation.
Researchers found that 52% (95% CI: 38, 66) of patients in both groups were alive and progression-free at 2 months, which was significantly larger than the researchers expected.
RELATED: In Melanoma, Adjuvant Lymph Node Field Radiotherapy Does Not Impact Survival
However, the study demonstrated no significant difference in response or overall survival between the 25% of patients with a KIT mutation compared with those without one.
In regard to safety, the researchers observed a high rate of toxicity associated with sunitinib treatment in both groups.

Technologically Advanced Dental Care
Our personal approach to dental care is an important part of what sets us apart as a family dental office. In addition to taking the time to get to know every patient personally, we also take the time necessary to ensure that every service and treatment we provide is tailored specifically to your dental health needs. To help optimize that time, we utilize several different advanced technologies, from enhanced digital imaging to specially calibrated lasers, and more.
Intraoral camera
Every routine checkup and cleaning appointment includes a comprehensive visual exam to check for signs of concern that might warrant additional treatment. For optimal results, we may utilize a tiny digital intraoral camera, which is attached to a thin handheld wand that allows us to carefully maneuver the camera around your mouth. The inspection is comfortable and non-invasive, and the images it produces can be magnified up to 100 times without losing clarity or definition.
Digital X-rays
The use of a digital intraoral camera gives us a much better view of hard-to-see areas around your teeth, gums, and oral tissues. However, X-ray images are also an important part of your routine care, and offer a clear view of your teeth, their roots, and other oral structures that cannot be seen with a visual inspection. Compared to traditional radiography, digital X-rays emit up to 90 percent less radiation, and the images can be transmitted to a chairside monitor almost immediately.
Rotary endodontics
Endodontic (root canal) treatment is often necessary when a tooth becomes extremely decayed, and in many cases, we can perform the procedure without the use of a traditional dental drill. Rotary endodontics involves the use of an advanced, handheld electrical rotary device that operates quietly and can help us access internal tooth infection more comfortably. In addition to the applications of dental sedation, the rotary technology can help make your root canal treatment more comfortable than you ever expected.
Ultrasonic scaling
Scaling and root planing is one of the most effective ways to control gingivitis – the first stage of gum disease – and protect your smile. The process involves carefully cleaning plaque from your teeth roots, and using our innovative ultrasonic scaler, we can perform it more comfortably and precisely, and with optimal long-term results. The small handheld device uses specially calibrated ultrasonic waves to gently break up and remove deposits of plaque and tartar that have accumulated underneath your gums.
There are many different aspects of your oral health, and different structures that must work together for your bite to function properly. TruDenta® is an advanced diagnostic and treatment system for issues that can affect that function and cause chronic, sometimes severe symptoms. That may include frequent headaches, migraines, bruxism (chronic teeth-grinding), TMJ disorder, and more. With TruDenta®, you can find relief from these and many more symptoms without the use of medications or oral surgery.

This Bohemian South Carolina Bridal Session was and still is one of my favorite sessions I have ever shot. Last October, Aaron and I spent a week in South Carolina visiting his sister Rachel and her husband Marshall. They had recently moved to a little town just north of Charleston and opened a landscaping and design business. October in South Carolina was so warm and beautiful compared to the cold we were experiencing up in Indiana, so their business was still thriving.
Aaron and I were able to stay with them and catch a glimpse of how well Marsh and Rach work together. Rachel is the main designer, she hand draws each design, plant, and structure for their clients, bringing detail and reality to their ideas. Then they both take to the soil and help the design come to life. It's incredible to see how well they compliment each other in this business and in life itself! Check out some of their beautiful work here. 🙂
During our trip, we explored downtown Charleston, surfed at the beach, helped them landscape, ate some incredible food, and just spent good quality time catching up on life.
This session, however, was probably my favorite part. Rach and Marsh came home from work, got back into their wedding outfits, and we set off for Palmetto Park to catch the warm golden sun at the end of the day. It was incredible. These kinds of sessions bring back so much emotion not only from your wedding day, but also from the time spent together as husband and wife.
I can't begin to express my thankfulness that I get to call them family!! Marsh & Rach are some of the most hardworking people I know. They are extremely talented and artistic and are always so hospitable.
Thankful for my new in-laws 🖤

Another visitor from the Loft today, this time British rapper Heitham Al-Sayed from the band Senser, who claims that this is the last rehearsal prior to recording. All signs seem to be pointing to Tool reaching conclusion on their next album.
We were honored to be invited to the last rehearsal before the recording begins on TOOL's new album. I closed my eyes and saw visions, it was so moving to feel the passion unchanged from when I met them about a quarter of a century ago. It made me so happy , I'm truly proud of them and so excited to hear it when the vocals are in place. #tool #newalbum #lastmile #polyrhythm #passion #devotion #adamjones #justinchancellor #dannycarey #maynardjameskeenan

SEOUL, Aug. 14 (UPI) -- South Korea plans to add two more ground-based anti-missile early warning radars and begin building three Aegis-equipped destroyers in the next five years in an effort to better detect and intercept incoming missiles from North Korea, the defense ministry said Wednesday.
The plan was one of the key projects that the ministry unveiled in its five-year defense blueprint for 2020-2024 amid heightened concerns about North Korea's missile capabilities in the wake of a series of test-firings of what Pyongyang claimed were new weapons.
The five-year plan calls for spending $239.88 billion (290.5 trillion won), a 7.1 percent on-year hike on average over the next five years. Of the total, $85.54 billion is on improving defense capabilities and the remaining $153.91 billion on force management, the ministry noted.
In order to advance its independent, low-tier missile shield, called the Korea Air and Missile Defense system, the military plans to expand its detection coverage of ballistic missiles by securing two upgraded early warning radars for deployment in around 2020. Currently, the Air Force operates two such radars.
The military also plans to begin building three more Aegis-equipped destroyers with an advanced radar system to be put into operation around 2028, which will have vertical launching systems capable of firing Standard Missile-3 ship-based interceptors or comparable ones.
It will also seek to enhance its multi-layered interception capabilities by deploying the improved version of interceptors -- Patriot Advanced Capability-3 and Cheolmae-II missiles while wrapping up the development of L-SAM, a long-range surface-to-air missile.
With a goal to boost its "strategic target strike" capabilities against nuclear and missile facilities, the ministry vowed to secure more precision-guided missiles to be launched from the ground, the sea, submarines and fighter jets.
The development of additional non-lethal weapons will also be pushed for, such as electromagnetic pulse bombs and blackout ones, to neutralize North Korea's electric power system in contingencies, according to the ministry.
In order to "significantly" boost reconnaissance and surveillance capabilities of its own, the ministry also vowed to deploy five military satellites by 2023 and multiple mid- and high-altitude drones over the next five years.
Also among the plans are the construction of an indigenous arsenal ship equipped with precision-guided weapons for ground targets and the development of homegrown ship-to-ground missiles to be equipped on indigenous destroyers.
"South Korea is superior to North Korea in short-range ballistic missiles qualitatively and quantitatively ... We will secure ample interception capabilities against new types of ballistic missiles North Korea has recently test-fired," the ministry said in a release.
After a 17-month hiatus, North Korea resumed its major weapons tests in May. In protest against the combined exercise between South Korea and the U.S., in particular, the communist country test-fired short-range ballistic missiles five times over the past three weeks, with the latest one taking place Saturday.
The North is believed to have successfully developed its version of the Iskander, the ground-based short-range ballistic missile, recently, and is presumed to show off another fresh type of short-range missile that looks similar to the U.S. Army Tactical Missile System.
In order to boost its capabilities to lead the envisioned wartime operations, the ministry vowed to earmark $46.64 billion.
South Korea and the U.S. have been pushing for the conditions-based transfer of the wartime operational control of their combined troops from Washington to Seoul. Though no deadline was set, the two sides have been eyeing 2022 or thereabouts as a target date.
To that end, the military seeks to begin constructing a light aircraft carrier on which F-35B stealth fighter jets land, and to build 3,000-ton submarines.
It also vowed to procure advanced weapons systems in replacement of its conventional weapons in line with the reduction in the number of troops and to increase its investment in research and development for the latest defense technologies.
The midterm plan also included spending to boost the welfare of service persons and to create a desirable barracks culture and service environments.
"We will concentrate on making leading responses to security threats from all directions possible, as well as on building and properly managing a smart military based upon state-of-the-art science technologies," the ministry said.

Water Transport from Roots to Shoots
The information below was adapted from OpenStax Biology 30.5
The structure of plant roots, stems, and leaves facilitates the transport of water, nutrients, and photosynthates throughout the plant. The phloem and xylem are the main tissues responsible for this movement. Water potential, evapotranspiration, and stomatal regulation influence how water and nutrients are transported in plants. To understand how these processes work, we must first understand the energetics of water potential.
Water Potential
Plants are phenomenal hydraulic engineers. Using only the basic laws of physics and the simple manipulation of potential energy, plants can move water to the top of a 116-meter-tall tree. Plants can also use hydraulics to generate enough force to split rocks and buckle sidewalks. Plants achieve this because of water potential.
Water potential is a measure of the potential energy in water, specifically, water movement between two systems. Water potential can be defined as the difference in potential energy between any given water sample and pure water (at atmospheric pressure and ambient temperature). Water potential is denoted by the Greek letter Ψ (psi) and is expressed in units of pressure (pressure is a form of energy) called megapascals (MPa). The potential of pure water (Ψpure H2O) is designated a value of zero (even though pure water contains plenty of potential energy, that energy is ignored). Water potential values for the water in a plant root, stem, or leaf are expressed relative to Ψpure H2O.
The water potential measurement combines the effects of solute concentration (s) and pressure (p):
Ψsystem = Ψs + Ψp
where Ψs = solute potential, and Ψp = pressure potential. Addition of more solutes will decrease the water potential, and removal of solutes will increase the water potential. Addition of pressure will increase the water potential, and removal of pressure (creation of a vacuum) will decrease the water potential.
Water always moves from a region of high water potential to an area of low water potential, until it equilibrates the water potential of the system. At equilibrium, there is no difference in water potential on either side of the system (the difference in water potentials is zero). In order for water to move through the plant from the soil to the air (a process called transpiration), Ψsoil must be > Ψroot > Ψstem > Ψleaf > Ψatmosphere.
Let's consider solute and pressure potential in the context of plant cells:
- Solute potential (Ψs), also called osmotic potential, is negative in a plant cell and zero in distilled water, because solutes reduce water potential to a negative Ψs. The internal water potential of a plant cell is more negative than pure water because of the cytoplasm's high solute content. Because of this difference in water potential, water will move from the soil into a plant's root cells via the process of osmosis. This is why solute potential is sometimes called osmotic potential. Plant cells can metabolically manipulate Ψs by adding or removing solute molecules.
Pressure potential (Ψp), also called turgor potential, may be positive or negative. Positive pressure (compression) increases Ψp, and negative pressure (vacuum) decreases Ψp. Positive pressure inside cells is contained by the rigid cell wall, producing turgor pressure. Pressure potentials can reach as high as 1.5 MPa in a well-watered plant. A Ψp of 1.5 MPa equates to 210 pounds per square inch (psi); for a comparison, most automobile tires are kept at a pressure of 30-34 psi. A plant can manipulate Ψp via its ability to manipulateΨs and by the process of osmosis. If a plant cell increases the cytoplasmic solute concentration, Ψs will decline, water will move into the cell by osmosis, and Ψp will increase. Ψp is also under indirect plant control via the opening and closing of stomata. Stomatal openings allow water to evaporate from the leaf, reducing Ψp and Ψtotal of the leaf and increasing the water potential difference between the water in the leaf and the petiole, thereby allowing water to flow from the petiole into the leaf.
An example of the effect of turgor pressure is the wilting of leaves and their restoration after the plant has been watered. Water is lost from the leaves via transpiration (approaching Ψp = 0 MPa at the wilting point) and restored by uptake via the roots.
This video provides an overview of water potential, including solute and pressure potential (stop after 5:05):
And this video describes how plants manipulate water potential to absorb water and how water and minerals move through the root tissues:
Movement of water and nutrients in the roots
Negative water potential continues to drive movement once water (and minerals) are inside the root; Ψ of the soil is much higher than Ψ or the root, and Ψ of the cortex (ground tissue) is much higher than Ψ of the stele (location of the root vascular tissue). Once water has been absorbed by a root hair, it moves through the ground tissue through one of three possible routes before entering the plant's xylem:
- the symplast: "sym" means "same" or "shared," so symplast is shared cytoplasm. In this pathway, water and minerals move from the cytoplasm of one cell in to the next, via plasmodesmata that physically join different plant cells, until eventually reaching the xylem.
- the transmembrane pathway: in this pathway, water moves through water channels present in the plant cell plasma membranes, from one cell to the next, until eventually reaching the xylem.
- the apoplast: "a" means "outside of," so apoplast is outside of the cell. In this pathway, water and dissolved minerals never move through a cell's plasma membrane but instead travel through the porous cell walls that surround plant cells.
Water and minerals that move into a cell through the plasma membrane has been "filtered" as they pass through water or other channels within the plasma membrane; however water and minerals that move via the apoplast do not encounter a filtering step until they reach a layer of cells known as the endodermis which separate the vascular tissue (called the stele in the root) from the ground tissue in the outer portion of the root. The endodermis is exclusive to roots, and serves as a checkpoint for materials entering the root's vascular system. A waxy substance called suberin is present on the walls of the endodermal cells. This waxy region, known as the Casparian strip, forces water and solutes to cross the plasma membranes of endodermal cells instead of slipping between the cells. This ensures that only materials required by the root pass through the endodermis, while toxic substances and pathogens are generally excluded.
This image was added after the IKE was open:
Movement of Water Against Gravity
How is water transported up a plant against gravity, when there is no "pump" to move water through a plant's vascular tissue? There are three hypotheses that explain the movement of water up a plant against gravity. These hypotheses are not mutually exclusive, and each contribute to movement of water in a plant, but only one can explain the height of tall trees:
- Root pressure pushes water up
- Capillary action draws water up within the xylem
- Cohesion-tension pulls water up the xylem
We'll consider each of these in turn.
Root pressure relies on positive pressure that forms in the roots as water moves into the roots from the soil. Water moves into the roots from the soil by osmosis, due to the low solute potential in the roots (lower Ψs in roots than in soil). This intake o f water in the roots increases Ψp in the root xylem, driving water up. In extreme circumstances, root pressure results in guttation, or secretion of water droplets from stomata in the leaves. However, root pressure can only move water against gravity by a few meters, so it is not strong enough to move water up the height of a tall tree.
Capillary action or capillarity is the tendency of a liquid to move up against gravity when confined within a narrow tube (capillary). Capillarity occurs due to three properties of water:
- Surface tension, which occurs because hydrogen bonding between water molecules is stronger at the air-water interface than among molecules within the water.
- Adhesion, which is molecular attraction between "unlike" molecules. In the case of xylem, adhesion occurs between water molecules and the molecules of the xylem cell walls.
- Cohesion, which is molecular attraction between "like" molecules. In water, cohesion occurs due to hydrogen bonding between water molecules.
On its own, capillarity can work well within a vertical stem for up to approximately 1 meter, so it is not strong enough to move water up a tall tree.
This video provides an overview of the important properties of water that facilitate this movement:
The cohesion-tension hypothesis is the most widely-accepted model for movement of water in vascular plants. Cohesion-tension essentially combines the process of capillary action with transpiration, or the evaporation of water from the plant stomata. Transpiration is ultimately the main driver of water movement in xylem. The cohesion-tension model works like this:
- Transpiration (evaporation) occurs because stomata are open to allow gas exchange for photosynthesis. As transpiration occurs, it deepens the meniscus of water in the leaf, creating negative pressure (also called tension or suction).
- The tension created by transpiration "pulls" water in the plant xylem, drawing the water upward in much the same way that you draw water upward when you suck on a straw.
- Cohesion (water sticking to each other) causes more water molecules to fill the gap in the xylem as the top-most water is pulled toward the stomata.
Here is a bit more detail on how this process works: Inside the leaf at the cellular level, water on the surface of mesophyll cells saturates the cellulose microfibrils of the primary cell wall. The leaf contains many large intercellular air spaces for the exchange of oxygen for carbon dioxide, which is required for photosynthesis. The wet cell wall is exposed to this leaf internal air space, and the water on the surface of the cells evaporates into the air spaces, decreasing the thin film on the surface of the mesophyll cells. This decrease creates a greater tension on the water in the mesophyll cells, thereby increasing the pull on the water in the xylem vessels. The xylem vessels and tracheids are structurally adapted to cope with large changes in pressure. Rings in the vessels maintain their tubular shape, much like the rings on a vacuum cleaner hose keep the hose open while it is under pressure. Small perforations between vessel elements reduce the number and size of gas bubbles that can form via a process called cavitation. The formation of gas bubbles in xylem interrupts the continuous stream of water from the base to the top of the plant, causing a break termed an embolism in the flow of xylem sap. The taller the tree, the greater the tension forces needed to pull water, and the more cavitation events. In larger trees, the resulting embolisms can plug xylem vessels, making them non-functional.
This video provides an overview of the different processes that cause water to move throughout a plant (use this link to watch this video on YouTube, if it does not play from the embedded video):
Control of Transpiration
Transpiration is a passive process, meaning that ATP is not required for water movement. The energy driving transpiration is the difference water potential difference between the water in the soil and the water in the atmosphere. However, transpiration is tightly controlled.
The atmosphere to which the leaf is exposed drives transpiration, but also causes massive water loss from the plant. Up to 90 percent of the water taken up by roots may be lost through transpiration.
Leaves are covered by a waxy cuticle on the outer surface that prevents the loss of water. Regulation of transpiration, therefore, is achieved primarily through the opening and closing of stomata on the leaf surface. Stomata are surrounded by two specialized cells called guard cells, which open and close in response to environmental cues such as light intensity and quality, leaf water status, and carbon dioxide concentrations. Stomata must open to allow air containing carbon dioxide and oxygen to diffuse into the leaf for photosynthesis and respiration. When stomata are open, however, water vapor is lost to the external environment, increasing the rate of transpiration. Therefore, plants must maintain a balance between efficient photosynthesis and water loss.
Plants have evolved over time to adapt to their local environment and reduce transpiration. Desert plant (xerophytes) and plants that grow on other plants (epiphytes) have limited access to water. Such plants usually have a much thicker waxy cuticle than those growing in more moderate, well-watered environments (mesophytes). Aquatic plants (hydrophytes) also have their own set of anatomical and morphological leaf adaptations.
Xerophytes and epiphytes often have a thick covering of trichomes or of stomata that are sunken below the leaf's surface. Trichomes are specialized hair-like epidermal cells that secrete oils and substances. These adaptations impede air flow across the stomatal pore and reduce transpiration. Multiple epidermal layers are also commonly found in these types of plants.

LG Optimus L9 revealed
Slimline 9.1mm thin dual-core Android smartphone is "for everyone," LG reckons
As IFA kicks off in Berlin, LG's slipped out an announcement for its latest Android smartphone, the Optimus L9.
The Optimus L9 features a 1GHz dual-core processor with 1GB of DDR2 RAM powering a 4.7in IPS display, all packed into a 9.1mm-thin frame. Although it's slimmed down, battery life shouldn't suffer thanks to its 2,150mAh battery.
Round the back there's a 5MP camera, while a VGA snapper sits on the front face for video calls. A mere 4GB of internal storage makes us hope the Optimus L9 is kitted out with a microSD slot, but LG's keeping schtum for now.
The Optimus L9 will arrive running Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, skinned with LG's Optimus UI. That means you get the QTranslator app – a Google Goggles-style affair which lets you translate 44 foreign languages into 64 user languages by taking photos of text – plus a new customisable My Style Keyboard.
Other specs have yet to be revealed, but we'll give you the full lowdown once we get our hands on it at IFA.
