Answers From the Monarch Butterfly Expert
Special thanks to Dr. Karen Oberhauser for providing her time and expertise in
responding to your questions.
From: MISSSISSIPPI
Q. I saw ants crawling out of a tiny hole in the pupa. Did the ants dig the hole? or did another preditor poke it and withdrew fluids and the ants were just finishing the job? It happened all summer. I gathered the pupa so no more could be destroyed. But something did make a hole in some of these too. What could it be?
A. This could be many things. Ants will eat a dead pupa, but if you saw a hole in it, it is possible that the monarch had been parasitized by a wasp, who had already crawled out. Another predator, like a mouse or a predatory wasp, might also have attacked the pupa from the outside and the ants were just finishing the job. Or, you may have seen tiny parasitoid wasps that had developed inside the pupa that just looked like ants. Are you positive they were really ants?

Q. Do Monarchs breath in their chrysalis, and if they do, how do they? If they don't, why don't they need air?
A. The pupa "breathes" just like the larva and adult, through tiny holes in the side of the abdomen and throax called spiracles. The reason that I put quotes around the word breathes is because this is very different than the kind of breathing you do. The air goes into these holes and through a whole series of tubes in the body called trachea. The trachea carry oxygen throughout the monarch's body. They don't have lungs.
Q. How come only male monarchs have a big black dot on their wings?
A. These dots are made of specialized scales which produce a chemical during courtship. Even though this chemical does not appear to be important in monarch courtship, the males still have the spots. The spots are much larger on close relatives of monarchs.

Q. Last year, we did not see any monarchs up here. There are milkweed plants here. When I went to Bancroft in the summer, there were monarchs everywhere. How come they are not here? How can we encourage them to return to here? From Mrs. Livingston and her Grade 4 class
A. We don't know what causes the big changes in where monarchs can be found each summer, or how many there are. We see the same things in Minnesota. Some years there are a lot in certain places, some years we don't see any. We are tyring to study this very thing with a large monitoring project all over the US and southern Canada. The best thing you can do is just have a spot that is "monarch friendly." Keep lots of milkweed, flowers, and open space available, and hopefully they'll come back.
From: OHIO
Q. I have been gathering larva in the fall the past 25 years for classes. It seems that I have noted a very distinct drop in larva found in August to early September (in northeastern Ohio). Is this a pattern for this area? Are there reasons why we may be seeing fewer Monarchs?
A. See my answer to the above question. We really need consistent, long-term data to answer this question. Insect populations are notorious for large fluctuations, and we don't know if the low numbers we've been seeing lately are just a "natural dip" in population density, or if they mean that humans have changed or usurped monarch habitat, or caused other environmental changes that have harmed the monarchs. If you (or anyone else) would like to help in our monitoring project, you can. This involves weekly monitoring of a site that has milkweed, and takes about 2-3 hours per week. For more information, you could e-mail Michelle Prysby, who is directing this project (firstname.lastname@example.com).
From: CONNECTICUT
Griswold Middle School
Q. Are there monarchs living on other continents?
A. Yes. I'll copy the answer I gave above. Monarchs are found in many places throughout the world, but they probably originated in the Americas, and were spread either with the help of humans or on their own to other places. They are found in Australia and New Zealand, and many islands east of these countries (most islands between Australia and Tahiti have monarchs). They are also found in Hawaii, most islands in the Caribbean, and even sometimes in western Europe.
Q. Can you tell the differance between a male and female monarch when they are in the larval state?
A. Only if you dissect them and look for the male's testes. In some butterfly species you can see these testes from the outside, but not monarchs.
Q. Do the males look for food more than the females?
A. I don't think so, but I've never studied this nor read about anyone else's study of this question. How could YOU answer it?
From: NEW YORK
Locust Valley Intermediate School
Q. If the female mates and is ready to lay her eggs and can't locate milkweed plants ,what does she do? Does she lay them on any plant she finds? If that is so, what becomes of the caterpillars?
A. Females will wait a long time to find milkweed. Sometimes in our cages we keep mated females without milkweed, and VERY rarely, we will find a few eggs on other plants or the sponges we use to feed the females. The caterpillars then die. That's a bad situation for females to be in, and their reproductive cycle is closely coordinated with their environment so that it doesn't happen too often. We have done studies here at the University of Minnesota that have shown that having milkweed around actually speeds up egg development in females that were overwintering in Mexico.
Q. When the monarchs go to Mexico how do they know where they are going?
A. This is a question that scientists are still working to answer. People working at the University of Kansas with Chip Taylor have shown that they use the sun, and also probably the earth's magnetic field to know which way is south during the fall migration. But we don't know how they find the specific spots in Mexico. Personally, I'm not sure that we'll ever be able to answer this one - which I think is kind of nice. I like mysteries!
Q. Did you ever tag and track a specific group or colony of monarch butterlies to see where they are taking their journey to? If so, what were the results of your tagging?
A. No, I haven't done this. People working in the California colonies have, though. Just recently, Paul Cherubini from CA, made the following statement on the Monarch Watch listserve. "Monarchs tagged in the Santa Barbara area overwintering colonies have been recovered in all possible directions (e.g. in extreme southern California, Arizona, Nevada and throughout northern California)."
From: WISCONSIN
Q.With the recent logging practices in Mexico what impact do you feel will result in future monarch population numbers ?
A. I think that unless the rate of logging decreases, future monarch population numbers will be much lower. It is VERY important that the overwintering sites in Mexico are preserved. Of course, it is also VERY important that suitable breeding habitat and migratory routes in the US and Canada are preserved. We all need to work together to ensure that your children will still be able to study monarchs in their classrooms twenty or thirty years from now.

This March marks the second year of the the two week spring break for my girls. While they are super excited to have this much time off of school I have been dreading it a little bit. Not the spending time with my girls part but definately the keeping them busy part. With only three weeks to go until my official due date the pace I keep during the day is quite a bit slower with just Glory at home. I'm not goning to lie, I miss my naps.
So here we are at the halfway mark and in an effort to occupy the girls I have dipped into my wealth of ECE resourses and found some great activities to do with and for the girls. Todays activity is sidewalk paint. Super easy and a total hit with the kids. They measure, mix and use this almost by themselves and will spend literally hours outside painting and repainting the driveway. It also has a realy nice consistancy so the colors are bright and vibriant when they are applied the to pavement.
So here's the recipe:
1 part Cornstarch
1 part Water
Food coloring
Mix until smooth and you have a super easy activity that will keep the little ones (and not so little ones) busy. Because the cornstarch can be a bit difficult to stir at first you might need to help stir it, and if you are anything like me you will DEFINATELY want to
take full control help with adding the food coloring.
I will hopefully be back tomorrow with another activity. Or maybe I will have a nap. We'll see what happens.

theStudio Artist of the Week…
Jill Vasileff, Mixed-media artist, Stockton, CA
Jill Vasileff's insallation titled Pink Hum is deeply satisfying in its complex simplicity. Using tree branches found around her neighborhood and acrylic paint, Jill creates unique constellations we get lost in. Pink Hum is part of Jill's She lives with peace that comes from the proper application of anesthesia series. View more of Jill's work by clicking here.
Artist Statement:
I utilize various media practices & I am always looking for material based objects that define and perpetuate an image, invites a painted surface, and uses a level of visual information that comes from something else. By bringing in an element that I did not make from my interaction with the world, I am challenged to create a poetic exchange that marries sculpture with paint and sometimes, plastic with nature. My color sensibility is informed by my preoccupation with paint and I often layer color to build depth and luminosity or utilize the local color of an object or material so that it has the presence of paint. Every work must have intimate mark-making, vibrate dimensionally and depict something ephemeral as if trying to touch the air. I am interested in the by product of the work not being physical in the same way that the essence (or remnants) of our most profound exchanges are not physical.

I Want an Ice Cream Cone Topped by More Ice Cream Cones
How much ice cream do you need? The correct answer is "more." Jersey Jack, a gelato bar in Como, Western Australia, has the right idea. Its Little Mostro isn't little at all. The large ice cream cone is topped with toppings and smaller ice cream cones, which themselves are covered with more toppings. I'll take two, please.

As 2014 prepares the descent into the autumn film season, the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) has unveiled its first lineup of gala and special presentation selections. For the past several years, TIFF has cleverly and not-so-subtly released its screening titles in several waves so as to draw out anticipation; a rather fruitless publicity stunt really, considering its loyal and ever-growing audience. The usual custom for the first round of selections released is to capitalise on big names and award bait, but tends to round them out nicely with veritably quality films from non-Hollywood sources. This year, however, there are two disappointing trends to emerge immediately: 1) the immense dearth of non-American films, and 2) the surplus of films focussing on Old White Men with Issues™.
For me in the past, the major attraction of TIFF was its cinematic diversity – English-speaking films only occupy a portion of the total screenings at TIFF, and American films only a portion of that. This year, USA-led films dominate the gala/special presentations selection, comprising an irritating 71% of all screenings. In contrast, there is only a small handful of French films, a single Spanish-language film, and a mere smattering of other non-English speaking countries in combination. Indeed, as the years progress, TIFF's slate appears to cater more and more to candidates for American awards and attractions for massive crowds, rather than quality films. I'm sure that Jennifer Aniston attempting to contort her face in a pseudo-dramatic manner is taken under serious consideration by some, but at an international film festival set in the most multicultural city in the world, I'd rather invest my time in a multi-national animated epic based on a renowned Lebanese poet. Moreover, the slightest inclusion of worldly affairs outside of American life must be, naturally, facilitated by an American.
Today's announcement also coincides with an article from the Guardian, which highlights the rampant and systematic sexism within the film industry, particularly in the crews of both Hollywood and non-Hollywood films. Onscreen, this disparity is only too clear. The trials and tribulations of white men is longstanding and will likely persist until the last syllable of recorded time, but TIFF's first release of selections highlights just how fortunate we are to be daily witnesses to the heart-wrenching struggles of the symbolic (Old) White Man. Whether it's the gruelling life of the mob, having affairs with young women less than half their age, domestic troubles, playing at action hero with grim determination, or moments of crippling insecurities of one's masculine identity, there's a role for everyone – for all white men, that is. Especially so if they've reached a certain age – prehistoric relics like Michael Douglas, Al Pacino, Kevin Costner, and Richard Gere continue to churn out soporific attempts at "career revitalization" and receive laudatory praise from the general press, while unique projects from young female talent are kept below the radar. If they were indeed good actors at one time (debatable, in some cases perhaps), then it is their over-extended shelf life and limpet-like clinging to the spotlight that keeps them somehow relevant – tradition, it seems, is more cogent than cinematic quality.
All is not lost, though – this is only the first wave of films to be released, including for those in the Contemporary World Cinema and Vanguard programmes, and it is more than likely that the selection will only get better (I am on tenterhooks for Nuri Bilge Ceylan' Kis uykusu). It is entirely probable that the first wave of films released is done so in order to generate maximum buzz for the festival (as if TIFF could do with any more publicity), and having Hollywood stars in attendance – however dubious their actual talent – is a definitive way to get it. It is only my hope that in Mr Bailey's quest to secure world and North American premieres so fastidiously that he has not lost sight of the joy of attending the festival – for the films that one may only be able to see there, and not at the local multiplex a week later.

Mamoru Samurgochi, is a deaf composer credited for the soundtracks behind Resident Evil, and Ominusha titles, admits today that he used a ghost composer for two decades.
Smurgagochi is known for as "modern Beethoven" because he went deaf at age 35, and still continued to work. According to Japan Times, none of his musical pieces were created by Samuragochi, but from an individual who at this not moment hasn't come forward.
Kotaku is reporting that Mamoru Samuragoch confessed to hiring another composer to a news broadcast NHK reporter earlier today. "I started hiring the person to compose music for me around 1996, when I was asked to make movie music for the first time," said Samuragoch. "I had to ask the person to help me for more than half of my work because my ear condition got worse" said Samuragoch.
On Samuragochi website he appologies for his action, stating he's "deeply sorry as he has betrayed fans and disapointed others. He knows he could not possibly make any excuse for what he has done. He is mentally distressed and not in a condition to properly express his own thoughts" said Samuragoch.

Jamai Raja is all set to start a fresh chapter this Thursday. The show will take a generation leap of 20 years post which the soap will focus on the story of Sid and Roshni's son Karan.
Sadly, Sid and Roshni's love story will not end on a happy note. Reportedly, the lead couple of Jamai Rai will die in a road accident.
Also read: Bad news for Jamai Raja fans; Nia Sharma aka Roshni has quit the show
As far as the lead actors are concerned, Nia Sharma who played Roshni has bid adieu to the show since she did not want to age on screen; Ravi Dubey, the Jamai Raja will continue to be part of the show as Sid-Roshni's son. A new leading lady Shiny Doshi has been roped in opposite Ravi.
The trailer of the new chapter shows Karan--the new Jamai Raja--expressing his desire to become a Ghar Jamai. According to reports, Karan will marry Payal aka Mouli Ganguly's daughter and will thus become her ghar jamai. So in a way, Mouli has replaced Achint Kaur who played Sid's mother-in-law earlier.
Jamai Raja had taken a 2-months leap sometime back.

text: > Standard Chartered Hong Kong Marathon > Training > Training Tips Training Tips Wheelchair Training Guide By Mr. Fung Ying Ki - The first local Marathon wheelchair race finisher of the Standard Chartered Hong Kong Half Marathon 2013 Regular wheelchairs are different from racing wheelchairs in terms of appearance, speed and steering. Wheelchair athletes should have an accredited racing chair especially for 10km race; the wheelchair should have two large wheels and one small wheel. Regular Training Wheelchair athletes need to squat and lean forward to control the direction of the racing chair which relies on friction to accelerate. Most wheelchair marathoners will use a training roller for regular training but gym use is also recommended for exercising core muscles and arm muscles for marathoners practicing their continuous pushing technique. There are slopes on both the 3km and 10km wheelchair race; athletes should not forget to train on ramps. While training on outdoor slopes is a good choice, and adding 2-3 KG of weight to their racing chair to achieve the same training results as going uphill. The race route comprises of pavements and driveways therefore wheelchair athletes should pay extra attention on connecting road surfaces and drainage trenches. The speed of the racing chairs could be as high as 20 km per hour. Maintaining that speed on uphill slopes requires more energy therefore wheelchair athletes should utilize extra energy to speed up the slope and then rest when going downhill. Recommendations for training routes A round trip between Fo Tan and Tai Po measures about 20km. For a shorter course, a good route would be a round trip between the Hong Kong Science Park and Tai Po, which totals 7km, but you would have to pay attention to cyclists and pedestrians. A single trip around Tung Chung and Disneyland exceeding 23km is suitable for long distance training as it also has flat road surfaces, some ramps and less pedestrians.

As children, we may have been taught who to look for if we were lost. There are people available who are able to assist those who need help.
In the church setting, things are different. Our guests may not know who is available to assist them. We need to proactively seek them out. Many people have a look of uncertainty when visiting some place new for the first time. Those of us who have been attending here for years have had time to get used to the facility and the people. Imagine what it feels like to walk through these doors for the very first time. As you enter the front doors of our church, you're on a landing between two sets of stairs. Immediately, you've got to take action: do you go upstairs or downstairs?
If someone looks like they don't know where to go, then they probably don't. Let's step out of our comfort zones and offer help. In this moment, we're directing them to the right place or person. As an added challenge, don't just tell them where to go. Show them. Walk with them to the appropriate location.
Think of the 'lost look' as an ice breaker. This is a moment to welcome them to our church and make a loving impression. We may be the first contact they have when they enter. We don't have to be an official part of the Greeter Ministry in order to welcome someone to our church.
Our guests have a variety of reasons why they visit with us. Regardless of their reasons for coming, we can be consistent and intentional in caring for our guests. We can do our best to love everyone who comes through our doors because Jesus loves them. Caring for our guests is an active example of Jesus' love.
Small interactions, when done in love, make lasting impressions.

Just when it looked like things were finally starting to stabilize, and the Democrats were about to have a nominee, along comes Hurricane Ralph. To paraphrase the Stones' hit, with the news of yet another last minute Nader incarnation, we now find ourselves "between Barack and a hard place."
This isn't about whether one "likes" Ralph Nader or not, or even whether he has good intentions. The road to hell, after all, is paved with good intentions. And, frankly, Nader's motives for wanting a piece of the action are at least as suspect as any other of the contenders.
Make no mistake, this is about one thing and one thing only -- his inimitable timing. Like a shark in the water, Ralph Nader smells blood, and blood to him means victory. Lest you think this is about the issues, don't be duped.
Nader is concerned about issues, yes, but he is more concerned about upheaval than promoting change. If he were concerned about the issues he claims to be, he'd have entered the race from the beginning. What has he been doing for the past year -- playing Scrabble? Was he waiting for Kucinich to leave? We had a candidate with the same platform as Nader's -- Kucinich -- and I suspect that Nader will capture the same percentile of votes in November Kucinich would, and just enough to cause a Republican upset.
The naivete of the American electorate never ceases to amaze. To this day, no one mentions Iran-Contra when discussing Ronald Reagan, and he is venerated. No one mentions that George H.W. Bush lied to the American people about his knowledge of Iran-Contra, and no one seems to care. Instead, few will forget that William Jefferson Clinton lied to a federal grand jury about an extramarital affair.
Anyone not concerned about Ralph Nader's nascent interest in running is ingenuous to the point of absurdity.
Just when it looked like Obama was getting close to having the nomination locked up, when Edwards walked out for the sake of Party unity, and we're finally down to a two person race, along comes our Nader to virtually ensure that whatever momentum Obama picks up between now and November won't get in the way of a decisive McCain win.
The Democratic Party must do whatever it takes to keep Nader off the stump. Forget about Al Gore's role in brokering the convention. Instead, the former vice president's time may be put to far better use by paying a visit to the former consumer advocate, reminding him of his role in bringing eight years of warfare, and economic inequality to America, and urging him, in the interest of national security in the best possible sense of that phrase, to withdraw from this crucially important race.

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 170656
iSCSI connection recovery uses session address instead of portal address
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:07:21 EST
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050915 Firefox/1.0.7 (ax)
Description of problem:
When connecting to the portal address on the Equallogic array, the array will issue a temporary login redirect. The redirected address, however is not guranteed to be there if the connection is interrupted. In the case of a connection loss, the initiator must reconnect to the portal address, not the last connection address. Since the EQL array is unique in its use of login redirect, the initiator could use the temporary redirect as the heuristic on whether to go back to the portal address or retry the last address.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
How reproducible:
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a volume on the EQL array and enable at least 2 of the ethernet ports
2. Connect the RH software initiator to the volume on the Equallogic array and start some I/O load.
3. Use the GUI to determine which ethernet port is being used, and disable the port.
4. The load application will suspend and not resume.
5. Network traces show the initiator attempting to reconnect to the ethernet port that it was previously connected to, rather tham the portal address.
Actual Results: The initiator will continue to retry, and connections are lost to the volume. Utilities such as iscsi -ls and /etc/init.d/iscsi reload hang and require a ctrl-c to break out.
Expected Results: The initiator should connect to the portal address. As mentioned before, since the EQL array issues the temporary login redirect, this could be the inidicator to the initiator that connection retry should go back to the portal address.
Additional info:
Changing Component to kernel. In the future please try to select
iscsi-initiator-utils for userspace problems and kernel for driver problems. If
there is a kernel and userspace change required then make two :(. iSCSI is
legacy Component from when it was all bundled in one rpm. Thanks.
Note that if we add some sory of heristics to determine when to switch paths
userspace changes will be neccessary.
When you have a fix identified, would it be available for us in case we have
customers that run into this problem?

retry portal addr after 5 retries
Cesar, could you verify this patch works for you? It is the simple fix we
discussed earlier. To fully support login redirect, we need some fixes in
userspace for iscsi mangement and that might not be done in U3 (U4 for sure).
For now though, I would at least like to get something that works for you guys.
oh yeah, that patch should work against the current RHEL4 U2 kernel source.

Wrong path. Do not test this one. I will upload a correct patch in a minute.

Ok Cesar, please try this patch.
Thanks Mike. I pulled the patch in comment 12. We'll let you know how it works.

retry portal address immediately
Cessar, sorry about this. Cisco has sent us a fix for this they prefer. It
turns out it is also what your engineer had mentioned too. Please verify this
patch works for you guys.
Just to be clear, I should use the attachment in comment 14 instead of the one
in comment 12, correct?

network trace of 11-16-05 patch retest
Sorry for the delayed response. We finally had a chance to retest the patch and
found that the initiator does not attempt a login to the portal address. I
included the trace in comment 19.
This trace only show the first relogin attempt right? It does not fall back to
the portal address until the relogin times out.
BTW, you should be seeting the login_timout to a much shorter value to avoid delays.
Created attachment 121949 [details]
patch retest with login_timeout=5
A little more detail about the retest:
Login_timout was set to 5 in iscsi.conf and iscsid was restarted.
Initiator (172.19.31.8) connected to 3 volumes on the EQL array. 2 connected
to IP address 172.19.102.161, and 1 connected to IP address .162.
Ethernet port for the .161 address was shut down.
fdisk command on the iscsi targets was issued.
Response came back from .162 (not shut down), and the command did not return.
Trace was stopped after 5 minutes.
could you post the /var/log/messages too?
also I am not sure how a iscsid restart will work is the session you are
resetting the login_timeout for was created already. Could you just do a:
echo 5 > /sys/class/scsi_host/hostN/login_timeout or set the login_timeout
before iscsid is run for the first time.
Created attachment 121983 [details]
messages file from 12-7-05 retest
We re-ran the test today and started with a reboot of the system. This is the

Network trace from today's retest of the 11-16 patch. login_timeout was set to
Thanks Cesar, I have not gotton to look at the network trace, but wrt to the
messages could you verify for me that for the session on host0 you did someting
that forced a logout and then that session came back fine, but for the sessions
connected to host1 and host2 did you just pull a cable?
We didn't do anything to force a logout on host0. After the boot, connections
were made to 3 volumes on the array (which show up as host0, host1, host2).
Host0 connected to one of the 3 ethernet ports, and host1 and host2 connected to
another. Nothing was done with the host0 connection. We shut down the ethernet
port that host1 and host2 were using. Would the login redirect show up as a
logout, then a login?
No. In the messages the logout is showing up as a result of a AEN.

I may have misunderstood you question.
I guess when we login we will get a error value indicating that the login failed
becuase the target wants to us to try another address.
Then there is that case above where for host0 we are logged in, then the target
logged us out. I did not see that in your trace so I am not sure what happened
as far as what addresses we used.

I read some exciting news about the Toledo City League sports programs. The TPS has found the money to reinstate some of the freshman sports that were done away with in 2010. Junior high and freshman sports were done away with because of the huge budget deficit and improve the public perception with voters.
The TPS is going to restore freshman football, basketball, and volleyball, along with some other programs. There is no guarantee the restored programs will be offered for more than one year if the levy fails in November. My guess, very little chance.
When the athletic cuts were made, more than 2,000 students left the city schools. Can you blame them? Although there is no way of knowing how many left because of sports cuts, my guess is that it was a significant number. With open enrollment to some of the suburban schools and the private schools, the numbers could be huge.
For all of my 31 years in education, I have preached about the importance of loyalty to your school. Over the last few years, honestly, my viewpoint has and is changing. My comment is "What is best for the student." I wrestle with this alot. I see it a lot. Kids open enroll or transfer to give themselves a better chance at the next level. In some situations, this is the right move. I have come to the conclusion that each case is different.
One of my favorite sayings is "If you are good enough, a college recruiter will find you." Of course, this is directed to sports, but the saying includes all areas of education.
City schools throughout Ohio are all experiencing the same situation. Students are transferring to the suburbs or attending private school. When Glenville was not winning, nobody cared. Over the last ten years, people have become critical of their success. There is no sense to name schools, but this happens often now and all over Ohio. A player who I like as a player and a person recently left Dayton City Schools and enrolled in a neighboring school. Last summer he asked me what I thought, and my answer was that I could see both sides of his story. "If you are good enough, they will find you." He stayed last year, but made the move this spring.
My concern is always about the improvment of city league football. I wish I had the answer about funding programs. Possibly the best answer is that coaches just have to work their butts off to find ways to make money and promote the importance of participating in sports. The Head Coach at Columbus Marion Franklin is a prime example. He has fund raisers and works hard to promote his program. Back in the day, I mowed the football field, helped line the field at times, washed the kids' uniforms, sat on a dunking machine, and even stayed "UP"all night at the boosters' tent at the Marion County fair. That was the old days, but the work ethic is still necessary today.
Being "lily white," and living in rural communities all of my life, I do not know what "inner city" life is all about. But, whether it be inner city or a school on a country road, I have a huge concern for making kids better and for giving them a chance to succeed. The problem is that I do not have the resources to do that. I can only suggest ideas, and anyone can do that.
Congrats to the Toledo Public School systems for reinstating freshman football. Hopefully, the TPS can attract some good role models to coach these young people. (That is a whole different topic). Remember, "IF YOU ARE GOOD ENOUGH, A COLLEGE RECRUITER WILL FIND YOU." Just work to be good enough.

I tried opening the link to Billboard to learn more about the new album, but it didn't work. Anyone know what it said?
Bits & Bobs: "
You can stream the new BRMC single 'Ain't No Easy Way' by pasting this
[rtsp://rmv8.bbc.net.uk/radio1/zane_wed.ra] into the File-> Open field of your RealPlayer, then f-fwding to the 42min mark. The short song sounds like The Music with steel guitar. I'll let you tell me if that's a good or bad thing.
And you can hear a clip of itunes-only-single 'Shuffle Your Feet' at the e-card on their site. Billboard also has a track-by-track description of their upcoming album; and the same goes for the upcoming album from My Morning Jacket.

For Isaac Tennyson Mtambalika, enrolling as a mature student at the University of Derby has put him on track to achieve a long-held ambition of gaining his ACCA professional qualifications.
Originally from Malawi, Isaac has been in the UK since 2011 and took his first degree at Derby to build on his extensive work experience in accounting and in industry. Having graduated in Accounting and Finance in 2013, he progressed to the MSc as another vital step towards completing the ACCA examinations.
He praises his studies for broadening his knowledge about key accounting roles like investment appraisal and decision-making, effective project planning, financial reporting and business performance and review. "My learning has also revealed agency and stakeholder issues that really exist in the business world and some common management malpractices in businesses which pose a danger to other stakeholders," he says.
He pinpoints several elements of the BSc and MSc courses which have brought his learning to life, including the chance to apply theory to current real-life cases. He has also gained eye-opening insights into the realities of the business world through guest lectures on issues such as the state of the world economy. Another important experience was practical leadership training which he believes has moulded him into a better leader.
Isaac has particularly enjoyed the in-depth research undertaken for his dissertations. At undergraduate level, he focussed on tax avoidance and tax havens while his current work is on integrated reporting. He explains: "This centres on a recently introduced, globally targeted practice which I hope will give me further practical knowhow to make a difference in any organisation that employs me in future."
His study success has been remarkable given the challenges he has faced in returning to study after a break of ten years, entering an unfamiliar educational culture, and balancing his academic pursuits with work and family life. A married father of three, he says that the experience has inevitably demanded "determination and sacrifices."
Throughout his studies, he has supported his family by working as a healthcare assistant on a stroke rehabilitation ward, a role which has helped him with his interpersonal, communication, teamwork and organisational skills. He hopes all of these will stand him in good stead for his future career.
Isaac comments: "Graduating from my first degree without a failure, referral or re-sit – despite all the challenges – demonstrates the level of my commitment as well as the support I've received from the University.
"My studies have been very rewarding, even more so because they have prepared me to pursue my next goal, the ACCA professional papers. The modules are generally very enjoyable, with brilliant and vibrant lectures."

Getting to know Costa Rica
Ive not been fortunate enough to visit Costa Rica...Yet.
To understand this new location in my world I started looking through Google.
The best links ive found are.
The Information in wikipedia is limited compared to my China experiences. This site describes some of the historical and cultural info, relevent to our project.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Costa_Rica.
Wikipedia is also gret for EVs
The CIA world factbook is a heartless series of facts and figures. I use ther resource because i believe we can get some positive information form an otherwise questionable institution. The interesting Data is about Population, education on the people side and industries, infrastructure and transport networks that exist there.
I havent delved into Lonely planet as yet, but theses guys have never let me down. The Issue here is I find that "Tourists consume tourist culture", travellers have slightly less pleasent experiences and very few people actually have home stays and work on the farms.
The American NGOs like costa rica so there are a bunch of sites where i found stories of great adventures with some community service involvment. Emailing some of these guys may get some first hand experiences, like exactly how hard it i to dragg a bogged car out of the mud...
Maps of Costa Rica
I went looking for some maps of Costa Rica,
The best maps I've found are put together by Columbia University with their
Gridded Population of the World and the Global Rural-Urban Mapping Project.
Some other maps are inlcuded on Lonely planet, Wikipedia and CIA world Factbook.

What is TICO?
Tico is a colloquial term for a native of Costa Rica.
Global Car manufacturers focus on luxury and performance vehicles. This perpetuates the economic isolation of un-wealthy communities.
In this studio we will design a rugged affordable vehicle to overcome transport needs for Costa Rican citizens
This studio will be concerned with sustainable addressing concerns of Equity and Environmental issues.

You know what's a bit odd? Friendships.
There you go, that's my bold statement for the day. I had the joys of a 'falling out' Wednesday, as an adult these instances are few and far between now-a-days. I believe this is due to the fact that we as adults can comprehend when something is a joke, something is silly, or something will be more hassle to fall out over than just laugh off. No longer do we scream and cry and shout and run to a teacher or our parents… now (in my life anyway) it's a laugh and a 'you nutter' a hug and we all move on.
Still things get difficult, things get beyond our control, our comprehension and our own selves. Let me paint a picture… It was an odd kind of friendship, one that none of your other friends had made the time to get to know or add to their own growing friendship groups. Granted… you hadn't ever introduced them. They had however met your partner on brief occasions and they didn't really get on. Here's why, there's a fine line between friendship, flirting and downright wrong, it's a fine line that shouldn't be messed with when at least one of you in this friendship is happy, content and intent on staying with their partner till death do you part. Even after you have said to this friend they are messaging you too much, with kisses and flirts, even after asking for it to stop, even after telling them that it was all putting a strain on your relationship and work, it carries on. This person had a lot going on, a lot that I attentively listened to (a few times with no choice) and eventually all that was happening in their life played with their head enough for them to start blaming others and not being able to trust anyone… eventually it got to the point where one simple innocent act by myself resulted in them assuming I was conspiring against them (I had accepted a Facebook friend request from their son-in-law who had previously worked with us).
It got to the point that everything I did was analysed, everything I said was automatically assumed to be about them, blogs, Facebook and twitter statuses just must have been about them. Truth is … they never were. Well apart from this one obviously!
It had already gotten to the point that I couldn't cope with it any more… to the point where I was hiding messages and my phone from the other half, despite me doing nothing wrong I just simply didn't want the confrontation following on from that text they sent you with pointless questions and KISSES and the next text… and the next text. How do you tell the guy you love so dearly despite his low self confidence that you are not interested in this 'friend' and you will not stray despite them having a bigger wage packet?
Things got too much and I chucked in the towel, I think the phrase 'I'm your colleague and boss and that is all I will be' came out of my mouth. My issue now? I have to see this guy almost every day. Note to self… work and friends, keep them separate! Saying that, Thursday and today have been ok, there seems to have been an air that has lifted… we seem better as colleagues.
Friendships are difficult even as you get older, it makes me think of the phrase 'you can't make everyone happy'. I have always had many different friendship groups even as a child due to my diverse interests and ability to find something in everybody worth keeping around in your life, this has always resulted in me having to time manage well, weekends were shared out equally between each group, evenings were first come first serve and Christmas's and birthday celebrations were always split up for each group. Whilst I can get on with anyone, not everyone gets on with anyone.

On November 7, 2010, one of Indonesia's top sinologist passed away. Ignatius Wibowo, who was lovingly referred to as Romo Bowo, left behind many friends, students, proteges, and family members who had found in him a symbol of honesty, intelligence, hard work, and humility.
I had been introduced to Romo Bowo by my good friend, Victor, who was a former student of Romo Bowo. I, myself, never had the luxury of being his student. Even before meeting him, I had read so much academic literature written by this man of cloth, who had also dedicated his life to making China studies more accessible to all Indonesians. Of course, I was nervous during that first encounter. But all of that disappeared, as I quickly learned about Romo Bowo's kind and generous character.
I had had the chance to visit him during his bout with cancer. And even during those times, he had acted as if nothing could prevent him from continuing on with his passion for the academics, especially for the study of China. Such fighting spirit was what stayed in me after I last talked to him. And, almost two years since his passing away, that spirit remains alive, not only in me, but most likely also in the hearts of his friends and colleagues.
A short while after Romo Bowo's passing away, Natalia Soebagjo and a few of Romo Bowo's colleagues decided to compile a Liber Amicorum, a tribute to this good man. Victor and I were more than happy to be part of the project. Below is our contribution to that effort.

Mood disorders are common in women and typically emerge during the childbearing years.1 While pregnancy has traditionally been considered a time of emotional well- being, recent data indicate that about 10% to 15% of women experience clinically significant depressive symptoms during pregnancy.2-5 The risk is particularly high in women with recurrent major depression who discontinue antidepressant medication proximate to conception; 68% of those women experience a depressive relapse.6
The clinician faces certain challenges in making recommendations regarding treatment for depression during pregnancy. While psychotherapy is an attractive option, not all women respond to this intervention and many require pharmacotherapy. All antidepressant medications readily diffuse across the placenta, and no psychotropic drug has yet been approved by the FDA for use during pregnancy. Although data accumulated during the past 30 years suggest that certain medications, including SSRIs, may be used safely during pregnancy,7,8 knowledge regarding the risks of prenatal exposure to psychotropic medications remains incomplete.
Pregnancy loss
While most reports do not indicate that antidepressants increase the risk of miscarriage, several reports have suggested small increases in rates of spontaneous abortion among women treated with SSRIs during the first trimester of pregnancy.9-13 In these individual reports, the observed differences have not reached statistical significance, and in all cases, reported rates of miscarriage in exposed women have never exceeded the rate of spontaneous abortions observed in the general population (12% to 15%). Findings from a recent meta-analysis that included 3567 women showed that the miscarriage rate was 1.43-fold higher in women who had been exposed to antidepressants than in those who had not (12.4% vs 8.7%, respectively).14 The authors concluded that while maternal exposure to antidepressants may be associated witha small increase in risk of miscarriage, depression itself also may be a contributing factor and that further studies are needed to clarify this issue.
Congenital malformations
The baseline incidence of major congenital malformations in newborns born in the United States is estimated to be between 2% and 3%. A teratogen is an agent that interferes with organ formation and that produces some type of organ malformation or dysfunction. Data on the overall teratogenicity of SSRIs come from relatively small prospective observational studies, larger international birth registries, and managed health care databases; these data have cumulatively supported the reproductive safety of fluoxetine and certain other SSRIs.15
Although SSRIs share a common mechanism of action, their chemical structures are distinct; whether they have similar effects on pregnancy outcomes is not known. Of the antidepressants, fluoxetine is the best charac- terized with regard to its use during pregnancy; prospective studies complemented by postmarketing surveillance studies indicate no increase in risk of major congenital malformation in infants exposed to it.9,15-18 Information regarding the reproductive safety of other SSRIs is accumulating but is more limited in terms of sample size.15,19-21 In a recent meta-analysis that included 1774 antidepressant-exposed infants, first-trimester exposure to SSRIs was not associated with an increased risk of major malformations above the baseline level of 2% to 3%.22
On the basis of these data, SSRIs are not generally thought to be major te- ratogens; however, concerns about the potential teratogenicity of SSRIs were first raised in 2005 when several studies suggested that paroxetine may be associated with a small increase in risk of congenital abnormalities. A preliminary analysis of data derived from an HMO-claims database demonstrated a 1.8-fold increase in overall risk of malformations in infants exposed to paroxetine and showed a trend toward increased risk of cardiovascular malformation (odds ratio [OR], 1.54).23 Data from the Swedish Medical Birth Registry, which included 882 paroxetine-exposed children, demonstrated a 1.78-fold increased risk of cardiovascular malformation; the majority of these defects were ventricular or atrial septal defects. Infants exposed to other SSRIs did not have an increased risk of cardiac defects.23
Two recent retrospective case-control studies evaluated the risks of early exposure to SSRIs.24,25 Alwan and colleagues24 analyzed data from the National Birth Defects Prevention study, comparing 9622 infants who had selected major birth defects with 4092 controls who had no defects. After delivery, the mothers of these infants were interviewed regarding drug exposures during pregnancy and other possible risk factors for major malformations. The investigators found an association between exposure to an SSRI during the first trimester and an increased risk of omphalocele (OR, 2.8). The strongest effect was observed with paroxetine, which accounted for 36% of all SSRI exposures and which was associated with an 8.1-fold increase in risk of omphalocele. SSRI exposure during the first trimester also was associated with craniosynostosis (OR, 2.5) and anencephaly (OR, 2.4).
Using a similar study design, researchers from the Slone Epidemiology Center at Boston University analyzed 9849 infants with identified birth defects and 5860 infants without such defects.25 In contrast to the previous study, they found that overall use of SSRIs was not associated with significantly increased risks of craniosynostosis, omphalocele, or heart defects. However, when they looked for associations between the use of specific SSRIs and specific defects, they observed significant associations between first-trimester exposure to sertraline and both omphalocele (OR, 5.7) and septal defects (OR, 2.0) and between exposure to paroxetine and right ventricular outflow tract obstruction defects (OR, 3.3).
This volley of conflicting reports has left many clinicians confused and uncertain about how to counsel their patients regarding the safety of SSRIs during pregnancy. For example, while earlier reports suggested a link between paroxetine and septal defects, the 2 most recent studies show no such association. While one of the case-control studies suggests that paroxetine may increase the risk of omphalocele, the other does not and, instead, links sertraline exposure to this defect. The differences in the results from the available studies and the diversity in the types of abnormalities reported make it difficult to definitively draw a causal link between SSRI exposure and any particular congenital abnormality.
While there is clearly a need for more thorough analysis of the existing data, taken together, these reports may signal an increase in risk of malformations in children exposed to SSRIs. However, it is important to put these risks into perspective. Even if we assume the associations from these case-control studies to be true, the absolute risk of malformations remains low. For example, an 8.1-fold increase in risk of omphalocele translates into an absolute risk of only 0.2% (approximately 2 of every 1000 births). Absolute risk is of far greater clinical value than relative risk and should be taken into consideration before patients are arbitrarily counseled to discontinue antidepressants during pregnancy.26

In multiplying one (1) is neutral element: a * 1 = a. For example, 7 * 1 = 7. Number one keeps the identity of a number, which includes a number being even or uneven. But what about zero (0)?
0 * 1 = 0. Does one keep the identity of zero or does zero keep the identity of its own? The property of this identity is "zeroing" property: a * 0 = 0, were a whatever real number, including one and on the other hand zero.
In case -2 * 0, zero takes the whole identity of number -2: The number being negative and even; as a result we get "just" zero. Similar happens in 2 * 0 = 0.
"Unique Sphere Shows Standing Out"

My two cents: Zero "zeroes" any number except itself. It "zeroes" the whole identity – including a number being even or uneven – of any number except from itself; in case 0 * 0 = 0 zero keeps the identity of its own, it doesn't "zero" itself, which reflects the identity of zero itself, how it is neutral in a deep sense and meaning.
Mathematical philosophically zero refers to none, there isn't something at all. Still, zero refers different than nothing. As I've written before emptyness ("zero") can be created, nothing can't be created; it is from which the creation begins.
Let us assume, that we have two (2) coins. It's even amount of coins. Let's give one coin to a poor beggar. Now we have only one coin, uneven amount of coins. We'll give that coin to a poor beggar too. Now we have no coins at all, the number of coins we have is zero. Do we have still again even number of coins, as we have zero amount of coins? I mean, we don't have coins left at all!
The coins we had were in a wallet and the two coins were all we had there; now the wallet is empty. Is emptyness even or uneven? Or are we speaking now about different matter?
As far as I can see, if the number of something is different than zero, there must exist something, somehow. This number is even or uneven.
So, number being even or uneven, philosophically would refer to existence; something must somehow exist, that is, the number of something is different than zero. This amount can be negative or positive, even or uneven, but not zero.
But if something doesn't exist, the amount of this something is zero, that isn't even or uneven, as stated before. If the "number of something" is even or uneven, something must exist, somehow.
Technically one test to determine, that is a number even, is to divide the number to be tested by 2; if reminder is zero, the number is even. This test is suspicious to zero from two (2) reasons:
- 0 / a = 0 anyway were the number a whatever real number (except zero)
- Two (2) is greater than zero by its absolute value (philosophical mathematical problem)
My two cents: Zero is neutral element in addition and one of its properties is, particularly philosophically, that as to being even or uneven, it is neutral.
(As a sidenote something came into my mind from section 2 above: Is number one (1) somehow fundamentally uneven in natural numbers set?)

ARCHIVED: Completed project: lynda.com pilot
Primary UITS contact: Chris Payne
Completed: July 13, 2010
Description: In support of Empowering People (ITSP2) Action 26, Indiana University has established a pilot agreement with lynda.com. This agreement enables students, faculty, and staff on IU campuses to access all of lynda.com's eLearning content from August 20, 2009 to June 30, 2010. Lynda.com offers more than 730 video-based eLearning courses with a primary focus on Adobe and open source applications and technologies, multimedia and web development, and programming; courses are offered on Macintosh-specific applications as well.
This service is being integrated with UITS training offerings to expand the modalities and content of all training offered. Lynda.com's courses can be used by individuals looking to expand their skills in topics not traditionally covered in IT Training's STEPS workshops or by users who want to learn on their own at the time and place that suits them best; they can also be assigned by university instructors to their students to help those students build the IT skills they need to succeed in an academic course.
Outcome: The program is being offered on a pilot basis for the period of August 20, 2009-June 30, 2010. During the pilot, and especially as it concludes, IT Training staff will rigorously analyze usage metrics and user satisfaction to establish the level of interest in this program in the university community. If said interest is high, all attempts will be made to extend this agreement with lynda for a longer term.
Milestones and status:
- Negotiation of contract with lynda Completed August 2009
- Development of website, supporting documents and communication plan for the pilot service Completed August 2009
- Introduce service to the university community Starts August 20, 2009
- End of pilot program December 20, 2009
- Analysis of usage and satisfaction, which will inform recommendation as to whether to try to continue service January 2010
- Due to high usage and user satisfaction rates in the fall pilot, the pilot was extended through June 30, 2010. For full details, see Evaluation of the Fall 2009 lynda.com pilot (PDF).
- Indiana University is working on negotiating a contract extension with lynda.com.
- Indiana University signed a three-year contract with lynda.com effective from July 1, 2010 to June 30, 2013.
Comment process: Since IT Training is administering this service, users should contact IT Training with comments.
Benefits: This pilot helps address the needs outlined in Empowering People (ITSP2) Action 26, which calls for training to be available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week on a wide range of topics and skill levels, delivered in multiple modalities. Through this service, users have access to a wide range of video-based eLearning courses 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. All members of the IU community will be able to use this service to grow their skills at the time and place that suits them best, and instructors will be able to use this service to help their students grow their IT skills.
Related information: The URL for this service is:
This page will contain links to additional information and a sample course module, as well as the CAS-authenticated link to use the service.
Client impact: We expect that users will appreciate the ability to access high-quality video-based courses at any time, from anywhere, on a wide range of topics of special interest to the IU community. We further expect that a number of faculty, AIs, and other instructors will want to point their students to lynda's eLearning content to help those students learn the IT skills they need to succeed in their course.

The song lyrics found in karaoke videos can be great fun. While misspellings are common, once in a while they are absolutely screamingly funny.
One line from Bette Midler's 'From A Distance' originally goes 'and no one is in need', and in the karaoke goes 'and know one is in me'. This could either sound awfully philosophical or awfully raunchy.
Of course, at three in the morning, when one is tipsy, the raunchy meaning strikes first. We were reduced to helpless laughter for the next ten minutes.

|Mickey Ronney (Getty - AFB/Stringer)
In a shocking new claim, members of deceased Hollywood icon Mickey Rooney's family have accused his step-son, Mark Aber, of foul play.
In fact, Rooney's estranged wife Jan Chamberlain and some of his children have accused Mark of poisoning the 93-year-old actor.
Suspicions rose after Rooney signed a new will, just weeks before his death. In the revised document, the "Breakfast at Tiffany's" star cut his biological children and Jan out of the will entirely.
Rooney's entire estate, which amounted to merely $18,000, was left to Mark and his wife Charlene.
However, two of the star's children, Kerry and Kelly, want a post-mortem toxicology test done to prove their claims. Kelly even snipped a strand of Rooney's hair as he laid in his coffin for later examination.
The pair, along with Jan and her other son Chris, reportedly noticed eerie signs pointing to foul play, like 'literature' over how to poison someone in the mail. The mother and son pair are filing a suit which will likely be followed by a 'fresh autopsy.'
That's right: They want to exhume the body.
But this isn't the first time Rooney's money troubles and family sparring have reached the public eye.
According to CNN, the actor accused Chris Aber of elder abuse and money extortion back in 2011.
Though Kelly cannot currently afford to run forensic tests on her father's hair samples, she's hopeful new evidence will uncover any wrongdoing.

Barnes & Noble Booksellers 2 ReviewsBig Book Store
Barnes and Nobles is a nice size bookstore. It is clean and well organized. Their materials are up to date and they carry music as well. Not to mention they have a small coffee shop where you can sit and enjoy reading your purchases. I enjoy their immense selection. The staff is friendly and they will order something for you if they do not have it in the store! Their discount card is a good deal to purchase. It saves you money in the long run!
