text: Home > Medical > HIV/Aids > News Updated 24 October 2013 Child 'cured' of HIV remains virus free A 3-year-old Mississippi girl apparently cured of HIV infection by aggressive treatment right after her birth remains free of the virus. 20 iStock A 3-year-old Mississippi girl apparently cured of HIV infection by aggressive treatment right after her birth remains free of the virus, her doctors report. Early treatment with a combination of potent antiretroviral drugs appears to have kept the virus from successfully establishing a reservoir in the child's system, said immunologist Dr Katherine Luzuriaga, of the University of Massachusetts Medical School, who is part of the research team tracking the case. Doctors are hesitant to declare the child fully cured, but in a case update reported in the New England Journal of Medicine they said that no actively replicating HIV has been found in her system by even the most sensitive tests available. The girl stopped taking HIV medication when she was 18 months old. A couple of tests have found very low-level indications of HIV in the girl's blood, but doctors cannot tell if they are false positives or simply remnants of the eradicated virus. "If they are remnants, the question is whether they are capable of reigniting," Luzuriaga said. "For that reason, we are calling this a remission because we want to follow the baby over a longer period of time to see if the child continues to control the virus without rebound."First documented case The girl stands as the first documented case of HIV remission in a child. Early findings in the case were first presented in March during a scientific meeting in Atlanta, but the new report adds critical details. The girl's paediatrician, Dr Hannah Gay, of the University of Mississippi Medical Center, launched HIV treatment just 30 hours following her birth, according to the report. Doctors normally put HIV-positive mothers on two antiretroviral medications prior to birth as a way of preventing transmission of the virus to their unborn children, Luzuriaga said. After delivery, doctors test the newborns for HIV and continue treatment if the virus appears. But in this girl's case, no one knew the mother was HIV-positive before delivery and the girl was born infected. This led Gay to put the newborn on antiretroviral treatment immediately, and that timing appears to have made a difference. Gay also chose to employ a combination of three antiretroviral drugs, all at doses commonly used to treat HIV-infected infants, and kept the girl on the medications until she was 18 months old. This prevented the virus from mounting any drug resistance before it could be wiped clean from her body, Luzuriaga said. Tests showed progressively diminishing HIV levels in the infant's blood, until it reached undetectable levels 29 days after birth. The child remained on antiretrovirals until 18 months of age, at which point doctors said they lost track of her and she stopped treatment. Doctors next saw her about 10 months after her treatment ceased. The child underwent repeated standard HIV tests, which detected no virus in her blood. The two factors timing and medication appear to have prevented HIV from gaining a foothold in the girl's immune system. The virus was unable to create a reservoir in her body in which dormant HIV can hide and later reignite when drug therapy is suspended. "What studies in other babies have shown us is if you treat very early, you're not only able to treat the viral replication but also able to limit the number of cells in which HIV integrates itself into the host genes," Luzuriaga said. "Basically, HIV makes copies of DNA and that DNA integrates itself into host genes. That's the barrier to cure. As long as you have those white blood cells floating around the body that have HIV stitched into the host DNA, the patient is not cured."Early treatment method A key point is that the child exhibits none of the immune characteristics seen in "elite controllers," the tiny percentage of HIV-infected people whose immune systems are so active that they can keep the virus in check without treatment, the researchers said. The absence of these characteristics indicates that early therapy rather than natural immune mechanisms led to the child's remission. Based on this girl's case, a federally funded study set to begin in early 2014 will test the early treatment method to determine whether the approach could be used in all HIV-infected newborns. This method could cure newborns infected with HIV but is unlikely to help adults, given that they rarely learn of their infection until months or years after transmission, said Dr Rowena Johnston, vice president of research at the Foundation for AIDS Research (amfAR). "If there is something key to treating HIV within the first couple of days of transmission, it's going to be incredibly difficult to treat adults in this manner," Johnston said. "But this case really opens up the possibility that there may be different HIV cures for different populations, depending on what the circumstances are." Dr Michael Horberg, director of HIV/AIDS treatment and research for Kaiser Permanente, agreed that the infant's case is very encouraging, but said it's not an indication of a potential cure for all people with HIV. "This is a very unique situation, but it does show that very early treatment is very successful," Horberg said. "We can envision potential future pathways with correct medication and vigilance where there might be a percentage of patients who could be successfully treated." Only one other instance of an HIV cure has been documented, in the so-called "Berlin patient." An American man living in Germany received a bone marrow transplant for leukemia, with cells from a donor who had a rare genetic mutation that increases immunity against HIV. This patient has remained HIV-free after discontinuing drug therapy. More information Visit the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services for more on HIV infection.

I'm running into an issue when I upgrade to 8030d it's putting the auth-defualt-vlan 1 into the configuration.
Currently I have only found 2 ways to fix this.
Option 1:
disable dot1x
Change auth-default-vlan xxxx
enable dot1x then go into each of the interfaces and add back the commands
authentication auth-default-vlan xxxx
dot1x port-control auto
Option 2:
Pull down the startup-config file.
Make the changes and upload it back and reboot.
Problem with option 1 is we have some switches with a number of vlan configurations and it requires hitting each interface to put them back. Option 2 works ok but it's the reloading that can be a pain as these are production systems.
Is there some other option I haven't figured out how to use?
I would like to have it use my default vlan for the auth-default-vlan and not recreate a vlan 1.

The groundbreaking report, Ending Child Poverty Now, details how the nation can significantly reduce child poverty immediately. If the federal government invested an additional 2 percent of the budget to expand existing federal programs and policies that would increase employment opportunities while providing a fair and livable wage for parents, as well as ensuring that children's basic needs are met; 60 percent of poor children across the country would be lifted out of poverty and 97 percent of all poor children would benefit.
A child in the United States has a 1 in 5 chance of being poor and the younger she is the poorer she is likely to be. At 20 percent, New York has the 5th highest child poverty rate in the nation—according to the U.S. Census Bureau's supplemental poverty measure, which takes into account the cost of living and the impact of public benefits. The same policy improvements proposed by the report applied in New York would reduce child poverty by an impressive 73 percent. This impact would be significantly greater, more than 20 percent, than in the other three largest states (CA, FL and TX).
Growing up poor has lifelong negative consequences, decreasing the likelihood of graduating from high school and increasing the likelihood of becoming a poor adult, suffering from poor health, and becoming involved in the criminal justice system. These impacts cost the nation at least half a trillion dollars a year in lost productivity and increased health and crime costs. Letting our children grow up poor prevents them from having equal opportunities to succeed in life and robs the nation of their future contributions. The U.S. and New York State can end child poverty by investing more in programs and policies that work.

County officials, Florida Builder`s Association members and South County Political Cooperative members usually meet over board room tables and not always under the friendliest circumstances. But on Friday and Saturday, members of the three groups will meet over Monopoly boards, poker tables and shuffleboard courts to benefit the Special Olympics.
``We wanted something that was fun and social and not political,`` said Andre Fladell, head of the South County Political Cooperative and organizer of the event. ``It makes a better relationship between the cooperative, the developers and the government.``
Beginning Friday at 11 a.m. at the Boca West Club House, the competitors will face off over the Monopoly board. Later on Friday, and on Saturday the three organizations will participate in eight other events that include billiards, horse handicapping, tennis, golf and bowling.
Bets placed on those favored in each event will go to benefit the Special Olympics. So far, $1,000 has been wagered on the contest.
Leonard Syrop, who will play Monopoly, said ``it seemed like it would be a fun thing. It`s not a life and death matter. I expect to win.``
The grand finale will be Saturday at 3 p.m. at the Delray Mall when Boynton Beach Vice Mayor Bob Ferrell will meet Shooters manager Joe Fashlishan in a pizza-eating contest.
U.S. Rep. Dan Mica, D-Lake Worth, will judge the pizza-eating contest between Fashlishan, who has become known as ``Palm Beach Joe,`` and Ferrell, who has been termed ``Boynton Bob.``
``The inside line is whoever leaves me a piece of pepperoni wins,`` Mica said.
Promises and threats have been flying between the two pizza-eaters.
Ferrell, 38, who stands 6-feet-2 inches and weighs 275 pounds, said he has the advantage because of his age and eating experience. Fashlishan, 27, who is 6-feet-4 inches tall and weighs 300 pounds, responded, ``there`s always a younger guy coming up.``

BEIJING, Jan. 14 (Xinhua) -- Chinese President Xi Jinping vowed on Tuesday to maintain "high pressure" on corruption, warning that this fight is vital for the Party's integrity in the long term.
|Chinese President Xi Jinping vowed on Tuesday to maintain "high pressure" on corruption, warning that this fight is vital for the Party's integrity in the long term.
"Preventing the Party from being corrupted in its long-term rule of the country is a major political mission. And we must do it right," said Xi, also general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, when addressing the third plenary session of the CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI).
He stressed zero tolerance of graft and promised to seriously punish every corrupt official being caught.
Xi urged efforts to ensure "relatively independent and authoritative supervisory power" of disciplinary agencies at all levels.
Authorities should reform the Party's disciplinary inspection system, improve the anti-graft mechanism and enhance the checks and supervision of power, he said.
"Do not let regulations become 'paper tigers' or 'scarecrows,'" he went on, adding that endeavors would be intensified to hold officials accountable for wrongdoing.
"Every CPC official should keep in mind that all dirty hands will be caught," he said. "Senior officials should hold Party disciplines in awe and stop taking chances."
In 2013, the Party leadership struck hard on corruption and made major progress, Xi said.
"The Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee set the example for lower officials," according to Xi.
The country brought down both "tigers" and "flies," metaphors for senior and low-ranking corrupt officials, and mounted high pressure on corrupt officials, he told his audience.
The CPC tightened supervision and inspection on the use of power and expanded channels for the public to supervise and report corrupt officials, which earned positive feedback from the people, Xi added.
According to the CCDI, discipline inspection agencies punished about 182,000 officials nationwide in 2013, 13.3 percent more than in 2012. Thirty-one high-profile officials were investigated by the CCDI itself and eight of them were handed over to prosecutors.
While praising the achievements, Xi stressed that hotbeds of corruption still exist, and the anti-corruption situation is still austere and complicated.
Describing the problem as "a disease that calls for strong drugs," Xi urged all Party members to continue the fight against corruption until the end with the resolution and courage depicted in an ancient Chinese idiom where a man has to cut off his own snake-bitten wrist to save his life.
Power should be subject to stricter checks, for which purpose power the way how powers are distributed among different levels and departments of governments and how are they exercised must be improved, he said.
The President also stressed intensified supervision on leading officials' exercise of power as well as internal supervision within the leading bodies.
To ensure correct exercising of power, its operational process must be made public, with citizens invited to supervise, he said.
The prevention of corruption must be taken into consideration in the country's various reform measures so as to stop all potential loopholes and ensure reform proceeds smoothly, according to the president.
Xi urged Party officials to follow a selfless work style, divide public and personal matters clearly, give priority to public matters, discreetly wield their power and lead open and honest lives.
"Problems in work style are always related to public money and official power. Not one cent of public money should be appropriated and not a slight bit of official power should be abused for personal ends," Xi said.
Stressing unconditional obedience to Party disciplines, he urged disciplinary departments at all levels to safeguard these disciplines and investigate every case of violation.
According to Xi, long-term efforts are needed to solve problems that hinder the flesh-and-blood relations between the Party and the people, and a good start must be followed by surefooted steps.
He cited a five-year (2013-2017) plan on building a system to punish and prevent corruption as a guideline that needs meticulous implementation by Party committees at various levels in all their work aspects including reform, development and stability.
Released last month by the CPC Central Committee, the plan vowed a "high-handed posture" in the anti-graft drive and urged particular efforts to deal with cases involving power-for-money deals, judicial corruption, major violations of political discipline, corruption-induced mass incidents, commercial bribery, and official selection.
"The strength of the Party comes from its organization," Xi said, adding that all members should enhance their sense of Party spirit.
"Party members should remember that their foremost identity is a CPC member and their top obligation is to work for the Party and maintain their loyalty to the Party," he said.
"CPC members should always bear it in mind that they are part of the organization, and they should keep confidence in the organization, be obedient to the organization and take the initiative in safeguarding the Party's unity," Xi said.
The Party's disciplines should be followed without any exception, and Party organizations at all levels should be resolute to enforce them and rectify violations, so that the disciplines will be regarded as a "high voltage line that is always switched on," according to Xi.
Also, Xi stressed the importance of democratic centralism and organizational rules of the Party.
Efforts should be made to keep members well organized and direct each other and cadres to take matters about Party organization seriously, Xi said.
Members and cadres should be honest and speak the truth, Xi said, adding that they are obliged to accept Party organizations' education and supervision.
Xi noted that decisions and arrangements by the CPC Central Committee should be well implemented.
Party departments as well as Party organizations within the country's legislative authorities, government departments, political advisory bodies, courts, procuratorates, and government-sponsored institutions and organizations should all make efforts to carry out the decisions, Xi said.
The meeting was presided over by CCDI Secretary Wang Qishan. He also gave a report on behalf of the CCDI Standing Committee at the meeting.
Wang urged Party organizations and disciplinary authorities at all levels to take responsibility to cultivate a clean governance atmosphere within the Party and supervise practices in this regard.
Wang also called for strengthened anti-corruption efforts to resolutely rein in the spread of corruption.
Premier Li Keqiang and other top Chinese leaders Zhang Dejiang, Yu Zhengsheng, Liu Yunshan and Zhang Gaoli also attended the meeting.
The power-for-money trade is always a major hotbed of corruption and lack of supervision may give rise to corruption and power misuse, said Ma Huaide, vice president of China University of Political Science and Law.
Ma said effective supervision and restraint of the use of power will be emphasized in the anti-corruption drive.
Xin Ming, a professor with the Party School of the CPC Central Committee, noted the importance of Party organization as highlighted in Xi's speech.
"The CPC is a well-organized political party and it is the organization that unites every individual member to form a potent whole," Xin said.
"Meanwhile, the Party is anything but a 'personal club,' and it may only be a vigorous one with strong disciplines," he said.
The professor said strict enforcement of disciplines is a must in deepening reforms, and selective implementation of Party decisions to seek interests for individuals or small groups should be prohibited.

The Randolph
Oxfords leading hotel - The Macdonald Randolph - is situated in the heart of the city opposite the world famous Ashmolean Museum. Built in 1864 and recently refurbished, the hotel offers each guest the highest level of comfort and service in a traditional and welcoming environment.

The Randoph was one Oxfords only top rated hotel but now faces competition from the Old Parsonage Hotel and the more trendy boutique style Mal Maison hotel in the new Oxford Castle development.
Tour Facts
The Randolph Hotel is host to The Morse Bar, which featured in the Inspector Morse episode, The Jewel that Was Ours. In this episode of Inspector Morse a group of Americans stay at the hotel as part of their historic England tour. The case seemed so simple, Inspector Morse even deemed it beneath his notice. A wealthy, elderly American tourist has a heart attack in her room at Oxfords luxurious Randolph Hotel. Missing from the scene is the ladys handbag, which contained the Wolvercote Tongue, a priceless jewel that her late husband had bequeathed to the Ashmolean Museum just across the street. Morse proceeds to spend a great deal of time thinking and drinking in the hotels bar, certain the solution is close at hand until conflicting stories, suspicious doings, and a real murder convince him otherwise.... It is a delight to watch the brilliant, quirky, Inspector Morse deduce.

The Old Bookbinders Arms
Friendly nook-and-cranny-filled pub known for its real ale.
Tour Facts
When Inspector Morse was shown regularly it was compulsory viewing for most of Oxford, as we hoped to catch glimpses of friends and neighbours, and we laughed knowingly as Morse?s Jaguar glided effortlessly from one end of town to mysteriously appear at the other end of Oxford moments later.
Many Oxford people were also involved in the filming as extras, or offered up their houses as makeshift film sets. In the are of Oxford known as Jericho, residents remember the filming of the first episode of Inspector Morse, The Dead of Jericho, which was set in Combe Road, which leads from Canal Street down to the boatyard. The street was renamed Canal Walk, but that was the only change made and the episode of Morse. The Old Book Binders Ale House, a Jericho pub, featured in the episode The Dead of Jericho. In the original novel, the pub was actually called the Printer?s Devil.

Pitt Rivers Museum
The Pitt Rivers Museum (often spelt Pit Rivers Museum) was founded in 1884 when Lt General Pitt Rivers, an influential figure in the development of archaeology and evolutionary anthropology, gave his collection to Oxford University. His two conditions were that a museum was built to house it and that someone should be appointed to lecture in anthropology.
Oxford University agreed to his request and the Pit Rivers Museum of natural history was founded. The Generals founding gift contained more than 18,000 objects but there are now over half a million. The Pitt Rivers Museum features displays of archaeological and ethnographic objects from all parts of the world. Many were donated by early anthropologists and explorers. Today the Museum is an active teaching department of the University of Oxford.
The Pitt Rivers is the only natural history museum in Oxford so if you would like a souvenir dont forget to visit the museum gift shop!
Tour Facts
This museum can be seen in Inspector Morse Episode The Daughters of Cain and was where the knife-wielding Ted Brooks stole his murder weapon. On June 6th 2005 the famous Oxford author Colin Dexter, creator of Inspector Morse came to the Museum to oversee the the burying of a time capsule beneath the foundations of the new extension. Sealed into the capsule are a number of small objects brought by a class of local children from Rosehill Primary School. Other items placed in the capsule were selected by Museum staff to represent this important turning point in its history, including a digital copy of the collections database. Maybe an Inspector Morse of the future will be the one to discover it.
Opening Times
The Pitt Rivers Museum is closed until early 2009. Normaly it is open every Day 12.00 - 16.30 From the 1st May 2007 the opening hours will be extended to: Tuesday-Sunday 10.00 - 16.30, Monday 12.00 - 16.30, Bank Holidays 10.00 - 16.30.

The Turf Tavern
Old pub with two busy bars and 3 outdoor courtyards. Numbered among drunken poet Dylan Thomas haunts when in Oxford, this is truly a favourite amongst the student community.
Tour Facts
Many scenes from Inspector Morse played by John Thaw, were filmed at the Turf Tavern which has to be the most enchanting pub in Oxford, and well worth going out of your way to find. In the back streets around the Turf you can easily imagine, Inspector Morse, solving murder mysteries while driving around in his Jaguar, listening to Wagner and drinking real ale from the Turf pub. Finding this pub is half the fun. It is tucked behind Hertford College and the Holywell Road, and can be reached only by tiny alleys. If you are coming from the Radcliffe Camera then step under the Bridge of Sighs to New College Lane. The alley leading to the Turf Tavern is only a meter wide and on the north side of the street. If you follow it behind the college accommodation and gardens and take a swift left, you'll find the beer garden of the Turf Tavern. From the north is the better way, and once you have found your way to Holywell Street, it is just a sidestep to the south. The alley to look out for is Bath Place, which is only 2-feet wide and lined with cobbles. At the end is the pink Georgian hotel called, suitably, the Bath Hotel. But it is a passageway to the left you must look for. And this will bring you out into the beer garden of the Turf Tavern. If you were wondering where you saw the pub cast your mind back to the an episode of Inspector Morse called The Daughters of Cain where the Turf Tavern features.
Opening Times
Opening hours: Mon-Sat: 11-11pm, Sun 12-10:30pm.

In 1994 the Theatre was described by the European Commission as one of the architectural jewels of Oxford. Its purpose was to provide an appropriate secular venue for the principal meetings and public ceremonies of the University, and this remains its purpose today.

Brasenose College
One of the more attractive Oxford colleges, based at the heart of the University, Brasenose was founded in 1509 by Sir Richard Sutton, a lawyer, and William Smyth, a Bishop of Licoln. Brasenose was built on the site of Brasenose Hall, a medaevil lodging house that grew into a seat of learning. Brasenose features as Lonsdale College in the Inspector Morse novels and TV adaptations, as well as Brazenface College in the Cuthbert Bede comic novel of the 19th century, Verdant Green, an Oxford Freshman.
Interesting Facts
Brasenose College was used in the TV adaptation of Inspector Morse to represent the fictional Lonsdale College. Lonsdale College was created by author Colin Dexter and featured in several of his novels, The Riddle of the Third Mile and Death is Now My Neighbour.
Tour Facts
If you are looking for the Lonsdale College featured in Inspector Morse you have just found it! Lonsdale College was a fictional creation of the author Colin Dexter and in reality Brasenose college was used to film a lot of the footage used in the TV series.
Lonsdale college feature in the Inspector Morse episode Death is now my neighbour. In this most fascinating mystery, Morse faces his own mortality in some rather surprising ways while trying to resolve a murder that appears to have been a mistake. Blackmail, tabloid journalism and the secrets of Oxford dons all weave together in ways that ultimately reveal a devious but logical solution.

The Bear Inn
The Bear is the oldest pub in Oxford (1242), and is also one of the smallest - this venue is not for the tall as the ceiling is very, very low. Most remember the pub for its collection of ties displayed on the wall.
Interesting Facts
The Bear Inns walls are covered with over 5000 ties. The collection was started in 1954 when 3 to 4 inches of a tie was donated in exchange for two pints. The Bear Inn is one of the pubs frequented by Inspector Morse in Death is my neighbour.
Tour Facts
The Bear pub in Oxford is where Inspector Morse investigated the murder in Death is now my Neighbour. In this episdoe an apparently motiveless murder in an Oxfordshire village is quickly followed by an identical murder in the house next door. Inspector Morse investigates. This was featured in episode five of series seven. I wonder if Inspector Morse knew that it was reputedly built over a bear pit in 1242?
We are not sure how the film crew of Morse managed to fit into this pub because it is so small and there is definitely nowhere for the detective to park his Jaguar!

|Re: Namespace partitioning using Locality Sensitive Hashing

Hey Brian, Great points. Agree that federating a set of file systems via symlinks doesn't solve the general problem of scaling a namespace. Imagine GFS' "Name Spaces" was mostly useful for systems that grew w/o much need for rebalancing, eg log storage.

What the 'Hobbit' Animal Deaths Mean For Movies
The furor over animal deaths during production of The Hobbit is prompting the CEO of one of the country's top animal-rights groups to call for reforms. In an interview with THR, Wayne Pacelle of the Humane Society of the United States says Hollywood's system of self-oversight and on-set monitoring by the American Humane Association has never functioned effectively because animals aren't safeguarded when the cameras stop. "Even if the on-set observations were scrupulous and properly informed," says Pacelle, "the program would still fall far short of fully guaranteeing animal welfare." The Associated Press reported Nov. 19 that three horses, six goats, six sheep and a dozen chickens used in The Hobbit's New Zealand shoot had died at a ranch where they were housed between takes. Director Peter Jackson and studio Warner Bros. emphatically deny mistreatment and point out that they paid to improve substandard conditions at holding facilities, an argument that likely will not appease activists set to protest at the film's Nov. 28 premiere in Jackson's home country. But while Pacelle stops short of agreeing with PETA's call for the replacement of live animals in films with CGI creations, he says the issue has taken on new urgency: "We really need to sit down with all the stakeholders and figure out a better program, with certain animals forbidden for use."
THR/PENN SCHOEN BERLAND POLL: Do the animal deaths make you less likely to see The Hobbit?
- 85% Say the deaths would have no impact on their desire, though young people are more likely to not see the film because of alleged animal abuses.

Asus has confirmed to Pocket-lint that it will be launching its Asus Padfone in February at next month's Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
The event, titled "Incredible Mobile, Endless Possibilities" will see the official launch of the new phone tablet combination with availability set for later in the year in the UK and elsewhere around the world.
Asus has also confirmed to Pocket-lint that the new devices will have better features than first revealed when the company showed off a prototype last year.
The Asus Padfone was expected by many to be launched at CES in Las Vegas, however Asus has confirmed that won't be the case. In fact the company is only showing off the first iteration of the Padfone in a glass case off the show floor.
We will be bringing you all the news on the Asus Padfone when it does officially launch on the 27 February in Barcelona.
We will keep you posted.

In our "What People Are Cooking" column, see how our recipes turned out in other cooks' kitchens. Every week we choose a recipe that several food bloggers made and feature it here with photos and links. Share your own experience; submit your blog.**
THE RECIPE: Asparagus, Fingerling Potato, and Goat Cheese Pizza
Bon Appetit, May 2009
Our Version:
We love pizza slathered with sweet, fresh tomato sauce just as much as the next guy, but when it comes to experimenting with seasonal vegetables and pungent cheeses, white pizza is the way to go. Like a blank canvas, it best showcases whatever you decide to put on top of it; there's no acidic tomato sauce competing with those garlicky ramps. Our May 2009 issue featured a mouthwatering white pizza with asparagus, fingerling potatoes, and goat cheese that ended up being a hit with food bloggers. See what they made after the jump!
Bloggers' Versions:
A Chow Life:](http://achowlife.blogspot.com/2010/03/spring-arrives-with-asparagus.html) "This pizza is absolutely the best. In fact, K and I loved it so much that we ate it 2 evenings in a row. That's pretty unusual for us. You know this has to be good. Just salty enough. Just savory enough. The flavors come together perfectly. In fact, it might be just that. Perfect. And, I really hope you're not afraid to try potato pizza. This starch fest puts those pepperoni pies to shame. Seriously."
The Dabble: "Naturally, when I saw (in Bon Appetit) asparagus, potato and goat cheese pizza, my watering mouth told me to make it. I changed a few of the amounts, left out the Parmesan, and used red bliss potatoes in place of fingerling, but I don't think it's a stretch to say that it would still be great in its original form. Good call--it was definitely a combination I think most people would love."
Mixed Greens Blog](http://mixedgreensblog.com/2009/05/08/seasons-eatings/tabula-pizza/): "My latest brainstorm, coincidentally the night of the last big windstorm, had to do with pizza. More specifically, thinking of pizza dough as a blank slate to be filled in seasonally with whatever wonderful toppings I can find at the farmers' market. Hmmm... putting it down on paper changes it somehow. Brilliant? Maybe not. Deliciously fresh and local? Most definitely. Come to think of it, this astute insight was probably the result of paging through the May issue of Bon Appetit just before bed and seeing a beautiful photograph of a pizza with fingerling potatoes and asparagus."
Pink Stripes: "The pizza was wonderful. The crust was thin and crunchy and flavorful due to the delayed fermentation. Unlike most other pizza dough recipes that can be thrown together at the last minute, this one requires an overnight in the refrigerator. The toppings were great. I've never had potato on a pizza before and I had been wanting to try it. I loved it. I'm definitely adding it to my topping rotation. And goat cheese--enough said."

Creating opportunities for the world's poorThis NGO is Certified

Previous ranksLast year : 1
2 years ago : 1
Sector(s)Health, Economic Empowerment, Education, Gender Issues, Community Building, Emergency - Crisis, Children & Youth, Micro Finance, Law and Justice, Sanitation, Water, Refugees - Shelter
Our opinion
For the third year in a row, BRAC (formerly the Bangladesh Rural Advancement Committee), the largest non-governmental development organization on the planet, has made it to the top of the World NGOs rankings.
Pragmatic, adaptive, BRAC can now play any game, whether using for-profit or nonprofit approaches, to face and challenge systems of inequity.
From the perspective of our ranking 185 criteria covering our three main pillars of interest – impact, innovation and sustainability – BRAC ticks every box with extra scoring this year due to clarity of its strategic vision for the next five years and its willingness to expand its international outreach. A member of the era-defining 1970s wave of Bangladeshi microcredit and microfinance pioneers, alongside the Grameen Bank and ASA, BRAC has since gone on to outpace its old counterparts and assume an unparalleled position in the crowded field of international development. While still involved in the microfinance space, the organization has carefully, but steadily, diversified into a wide suite of activities, from agriculture and food security to education, legal aid, climate change risk reduction, livelihoods support and maternal and child health. Rather than spreading BRAC's resources too thin, this strategy has instead remained faithful to founder Sir Fazle Hasan Abed's vision of a holistic, sustainable approach to poverty reduction. Indeed, BRAC is in a unique position to use its microfinance base as a social platform to deliver innovative scaled up services aligned to a principled, rights-based philosophy.
As we noted last year, BRAC is in many ways a microcosm of the entire international development sector in one organization, albeit gaining in independence from donor influence each year as it covers almost 80 percent of its $684 million income through a burgeoning portfolio of catalytic social enterprises – a clear trend positioning the organization in an enviable position of financial and programmatic sustainability. Yet rather than taking this as a cue to rest on its laurels, BRAC has at the same time used its considerable resources and in-house human capital to build an expansive and dedicated monitoring and evaluation apparatus, with positive flow on effects for the entire sector.
Today, BRAC is more than a reference; it is leading the nonprofit world toward its next degree of efficiency and leverage. The term "NGO" is no longer sufficient to describe what BRAC is becoming.
Welcome to a new world: Thanks to BRAC, we are now entering the "For-Good" era.

Our mission is to empower people and communities in situations of poverty, illiteracy, disease and social injustice. We act as a catalyst, creating opportunities for people living in poverty to realize their potential. We specialize in piloting, perfecting and scaling innovations to impact the lives of millions.
Our vision is a world free from all forms of exploitation and discrimination, where everyone has the opportunity to realize their potential.
BRAC believes that poverty is a system and its underlying causes are manifold and interlinked. To create opportunity for people living in poverty, BRAC operates social development programs, social enterprises, socially-responsible investments, and a university.
Gender equality (click here), respect for the environment and inclusiveness are themes crosscutting all of our efforts.
The values of BRAC are innovation, integrity, inclusiveness and effectiveness.
- Innovation: BRAC has been an innovator in the creation of opportunities for the poor to lift themselves out of poverty. We value creativity in program design and strive to display global leadership in groundbreaking development initiatives.
- Integrity: BRAC values transparency and accountability in all our professional work, with clear policies and procedures, while displaying the utmost level of honesty in our financial dealings.
- Inclusiveness: BRAC is committed to engaging, supporting and recognizing the value of all members of society, regardless of race, religion, gender, nationality, ethnicity, age, physical or mental ability, socioeconomic status and geography.
- Effectiveness: BRAC values efficiency and excellence in all our work, constantly challenging itself to perform better, to meet and exceed program targets, and to improve and deepen the impact of our interventions.
To ensure that we are always learning and that our work is always relevant, we have put in place training, research, and monitoring systems across all our activities, and financial checks and balances in the form of audits. As a knowledge center, we have opened our doors to the public, in an effort to develop national capacity in Bangladesh, through BRAC University, and internationally.
***Humanitarian aid for families fleeing Myanmar***
In the Cox's Bazar region of Bangladesh, where more than 680,000 Myanmar nationals have fled since late August, now more than a million people require immediate humanitarian assistance, including earlier arriving Myanmar nationals and vulnerable members of host communities.
In response to the humanitarian crisis, BRAC is providing clean water, sanitation, food, clothing, and health care to the most vulnerable families, coordinated by more than 1,500 trained emergency response personnel. BRAC is also preparing for long-term support. We've reached more than half a million people, but thousands continue to arrive.
For the latest updates, please visit response.brac.net.
Our journey began in 1972 in the newly sovereign Bangladesh and, over the course of our evolution, we have played a part in the significant improvement of life for the poorest in Bangladesh and internationally. BRAC helped dramatically reduce under-five mortality, enroll hundreds of thousands in primary school, and is working tirelessly to improve gender equality worldwide. Most notably, the organization played a significant role in helping Bangladesh achieve several of the Millennium Development Goals, a set of poverty indicators established in the 2000 by the United Nations.
Click here to see a timeline of our achievements over the last four and a half decades.
Strategic Goals for 2020
BRAC's strategic plan for the next five years supports the United Nations' new Sustainable Development Goals, building on many existing program priorities while also giving greater emphasis to emerging areas such as skills development, urbanization and climate change. Our goal is to maintain excellence as a global leader in creating opportunity for the world's poor.
Specifically, we will reach 2.7 million more girls through education and empowerment programs by 2020. We are also collaborating with others through advocacy and technical assistance to put our tested 'Graduation' approach for lifting ultra-poor out of poverty on the international agenda. Through this work we hope to end extreme poverty by 2030.
While continuing to maximize opportunities and expand services for the needs of the 138 million people it already reaches, BRAC will empower 20 million of the most underserved and disenfranchised women and men in urban and rural areas to gain greater access to and control over resources, decisions and actions for social transformation.

Many Sh'ites in Maysan province resent the British troops who patrol their streets. But, when the shooting starts and the bullets fly in another local feud, it is to the foreign soldiers that they turn to keep the peace.
The state north of Basra bordering Iran has a history of smuggling and banditry stretching back generations and the governor has no doubt what would happen if the present British military contingent in the area were removed - "chaos".
The chief of police is no less adamant about the loss to the region of a battalion of the Welsh Guards.
"The security agencies are still weak and their equipment is not up to a good level," said Ismael Arar Kadum, 41, in the state capital, Amarah.
"They must be here to the end of 2005, even the end of the year after. Only then may we be ready."
This view is shared by many of his men.
At a training camp for the police tactical support unit one officer admitted that he often wore a balaclava on operations because he was concerned that his family could be harmed.
"There are more of us but still we lack equipment," he said. "We receive only 90 bullets a time and sometimes you go to get more and there are none."
British officers admit privately that the coverings undermine the force's authority.
"At times you see them being ridiculed by children when they are on patrol," said one officer. "The children know that they are frightened." In Maysan the relationship between the Iraqis and the troops in their midst remains ambivalent.
The region was the centre of the most bitter fighting involving British soldiers during last summer's Shia uprising, when British soldiers reported that at times they were confronting men dressed in police uniforms, an unsettling experience even if the clothes were stolen.
Some locals maintain that the foreigners are themselves to blame. "The fact that the British are here creates the problem," a 28-year-old said. "It antagonises people. They leave, the problem goes with them."
Accompanying a British foot patrol through Amarah's main market involves numerous thumbs up and shouts of "hello". But it also provides the sight of posters of Muqtada al-Sadr, the militant Shia cleric, stuck to almost every shop and stall.
Yet when there are serious disturbances, the local community leaders turn to the British. The Welsh Guards have even been required to intervene in violent tribal fights that the civilian authorities could not control.
Few of the soldiers on the ground are reticent in making clear that, ideally, progress would be quicker. A functioning police force is their exit strategy from the mud huts, potential mortar attacks and towns where every household has its own gun.
"We cannot leave with any moral certainty unless we know they can look after themselves," said Major Charles Antelme, 34.
"We know it is in our interests for them to be as good as they can possibly be." But as long as armed men in balaclavas flaunting AK-47s continue to man checkpoints, stand guard outside government buildings and direct traffic, the time for a realistic hand-over remains remote.
For these figures whose appearance elsewhere in the world would signal terror and illegality are security forces disguised to hide their identity and avoid reprisals.

PCR need some help - (Jul/21/2010 )
I need some help Understanding the pcr . This is not a medical health forum but i think the people here can help me better so i am posting my query . Sorry if i post in the wrong place . I am very dejected due to my pcr results.
I was afraid of the HCV exposure but my doctor said that the risk was almost zero in the exposure i described.
However i underwent a PCR test at 26 day and 33rd day after exposure .
PCR at 26 day came as HCV RNA DETECTED and on 33rd day came back as HCV RNA NOT DETECTED. ( both qualitative)
so i further enquired about the testing procedure at the respective lab and got this info .
The first lab PCR test was done by REAL TIME RT PCR by flouresence method and they said that lower limit was 50 copoies per ml .
and second pcr was "nested rna pcr" the second lab mailed me their testing procedure as i asked them , their reply was
"For the HCV qualitative assay viral RNA is isolated from serum/plasma. For Reverse Transcription and PCR amplification, nested PCR is being employed. In this PCR system 2 sets of primers-outer set targeting bigger fragment of viral genome (5'NCR) and the inner set complimentary to regions inside the bigger fragments are used for amplification. Thus the amplified product of first step acts as a template to the nested step or second step. Detection of amplified sequence is done by 2% agarose gel electrophoresis."
which test should i belive ? the first one or the second one ? i dont know the lower limit of second test .
anyone help me please , i am so dejected ..
what are you trying to ask about PCR???
If you want to re-confirm whether you are infected with HCV, do a serology testing.
p/s: check your PM
I think you have to talk with your doctor and do another test. If I had to tests with contradictori results I would like to contrast with another one.
I have found this article:http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2334/4/55. It talks about the comparison of both techniques you talk about, anyway errors exists, so talk with doctor. He has to do the diagnosis!
Hope everything goes well
Thanks for the replies.
I would like to know one thing , Can nested PCR be used to detect HCV virus after 4 weeks ?
What is the sensitivity of nested pcr ?
hello there,
go to your physician, he may ask you to do other liver function tests as ALT/AST ... etc to check your liver function.
acute infection : HCV RNA is positive 1-2 weeks after infection with HCV antibodies developing after some what 12 weeks.
taken from : oxford handbook of clinical and laboratory investigation.
p. 462.
so, if the virus is really there do antibody test, and if unfortunately gave you a positive test, do HCV genotype test to know which HCV infected you.
wish you all the good health, calm down ...
best wishes.

Hello, 2017. I'm so glad you're here. I have a lot of hope for you.
It seems I'm always thankful when December 31 rolls around. Every year I celebrate New Year's Eve by being grateful that the struggles and challenges of the year are over and done with and that I've been given another chance. This past year was no exception. The bookends of my 2016 were the death of my mother in January and then the death of Lynne, my longtime best friend and college roommate, at Thanksgiving. The absence of two of the most influential women in my life made for a different kind of Christmas and changes my outlook for the days to come. Looking back at the days in between those losses, the activities and emotions that kept me spinning throughout were of hurricane force. The hurt was a true reminder that I was very much alive and they were not.
Both Mom and Lynne made it known to all those around them that they had placed their faith in Jesus for whatever happens after death. I have confidence that they saw His face the very minute they left this world because of this: "So we are always of good courage. We know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord, for we walk by faith, not by sight. Yes, we are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord. So whether we are at home or away, we make it our aim to please him" (2 Corinthians 5:6-9). Heaven truly is a wonderful place because Jesus is there, but also because Mom and Lynne are there too.
So, I am of good courage. I love Jesus too. Following the leadership and example of these women, I walk by faith. I walk, but my steps may not always be steady. Some of the paths I was forced to walk in 2016 were not what I would have chosen and therefore, I was resentful. Angry. Hurt. I'm sure there were days when I let it show. I probably spoke harshly to someone I loved or was snippy to someone I didn't even know. I may have ignored your need because I was too wrapped up in selfishly nursing my own wounds. I didn't try to hide my ugliness.
Looking back, I realize how desperately I need a savior, the Savior, to make it all right. I deserve so much worse than the beautiful life that I have.
John's gospel recounts the story of Jesus' death, burial and resurrection. He records Jesus' first post-resurrection encounter with Mary Magdalene. Jesus tells her not to cling to him because he hasn't been to His father yet.
I'm not a theologian, but to me that means Jesus didn't immediately go to heaven when he died. He was absent from his human body, but not present in heaven. Where did he spend that weekend between death and resurrection?
I believe he made the deliberate choice to go down the deepest, darkest, debris-strewn path of my own personal sin and suffering. He voluntarily experienced the death that all humans, regardless of their belief in the afterlife, know is the final enemy of this world. He made it there and back and lives to tell about it.
He did it so I won't have to. He did it so that I can face 2017 with hope and courage even though I will be without my mother and my friend. He did it because, "the steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. 'The Lord is my portion," says my soul, "therefore I will hope in him.'" Lamentations 3:22-24.
Welcome, 2017. I'm looking forward to living and telling about it too.

The Life, the Man | The Poet | A Closer Look: "Ode to the Sea" | EDSITEment Resources | Spanish Version
Pablo Neruda (1904–1973), received the Nobel Prize in 1971. Find information on the life of poet Pablo Neruda through the official page of the Nobel Prize and through EDSITEment-reviewed Academy of American Poets. Neruda was a multi-faceted poet stylistically, writing unforgettable love poems, odes to everyday objects, as well as poetry dealing with the labors and struggles of the common man. Critic John Leonard of the New York Times said of Neruda: he "was, I think, one of the great ones, a Whitman of the South," according to Neruda's biography page from EDSITEment-reviewed The Poetry Foundation. This interactive Launchpad will guide you through several resources to learn about Neruda's life, works, and one of his poems from Odas elementales, "Oda al mar."
Pablo Neruda was born on July 12, 1904, in Parral, Chile, the son of a railway employee and a teacher. His mother died shortly after his birth. Resources from The Academy of American Poets and the Nobel Prize official page paint a general picture of the life of the great poet. In Spanish, the University of Chile presents, on its page on the life of Pablo Neruda, the different life stages of the poet, with a collection of photographs. Using these sources, and in particular, the Neruda biography available through the Nobel Prize official page, answer the biographical questions, below.
New York Times Book Review critic Selden Rodman, in the EDSITEment-reviewed resource The Poetry Foundation, said, "No writer of world renown is perhaps so little known to North Americans as Chilean poet Pablo Neruda." As unknown as he may be, Neruda has been praised as the greatest Spanish-speaking poet of his lifetime. An interview with the poet in Spanish is available through the University of Chile. You can use this interview to learn more about the poet and his creative process. You can also hear the poet reciting some of his most famous poems in Spanish on this page from the same site. Finally, with the help of The Poetry Foundation and Pablo Neruda's biography page from the Nobel website, answer the following questions about Neruda:
The poem "Oda al mar" was featured in the popular, world-acclaimed Italian film Il postino, in which Pablo Neruda was played by French actor Philippe Noiret. It appeared in the collection Odas Elementales (1954), and is available via the University of Chile. Odas Elementales reveals Neruda's poetry as a way to appreciate everyday things for their individual essence or value and their relationship to the lives and struggles of the common man. The Odas Elementales explore the struggle of individuals and their connection with daily life and the universal. A translation of the poem in English is available through Calque, a literary translation journal. Follow the instructions to complete the exercises and questions below:

Plow operator Kenny Booth says business was good for him. Saturday was the eighth time he's been on the job in two weeks.
Southampton Village Mayor Mark Epsley said snowplow drivers worked late Saturday night into Sunday morning to keep roads clear.

[gravatar size=18 align=absmiddle email@example.com] This is a post by [the_author_posts_link].
Last Friday I joined up with Daan, Judith and Pim for another freediving session at the Tongelreep. The pool was still swarming with swimmers doing laps after their performance in the Swim Cup, so we had to wait about 15 minutes. Of course we could easily use this time for some catching up ;), also Pim brought along the special underwater lensed goggles from Kerian Hibbs. Strange how your depth perception can be confused, when you're not used to these goggles.
After the catching up it was time to do some dynamic's. I got to borrow the Waterway Glide Fin from Judith again, who swam a fantastic 150 meters with it last week. So from that point of view it was no excuse to not try and at least do a 100 meter dynamic with that monofin. They also made me promise to add a turn when I reached 100m…good thing!
Daan asked me if I liked a 2 minute countdown, but for now I j ust wanted to do it. So I got into the water and took a few deep breath's and went for it. Coming up to 50 meters my technique was still constant and I had my first contraction at 45meters. I Made the turn and tried to get back into the rythem of kick-kick-glide, but in a strange way I couldn't really focus on the rythem. So I think I was alternating between kick-glide & kick-kick-glide ;). Never the less, I reached 100 meters fairly easy and reminded myself to the promise I made, turn at 100m! I made the the turn, did a small kick and glided to 108 meters. Did my surface protocol and recovered fast, I quote Daan on my dynamic: "in speedo's, without packing and not enough neckweight, coming up like he just did 75. The kid's got talent" really flatters me and makes me confident again.
We had a great time training at the Tongelreep, atmosphere was good. We were also very eager to see Pim do some freediving training again, he managed his own prediction of 7 meters DNF and superseded it with at least another 40 meters 😉 Well done!
Daan broke his Big Fat Bastard 2 and when I write this already made a Big Fat Bastard 3, what a massive thing ;). Judith did a training of easy 50's, as she already proved to be able to swim quite the distance, quoting Pim: "a distance Sanne and me can only dream of".

Silica Hydride
Silica hydride is a colloidal mineral compound containing silicon, oxygen, and hydrogen. According to the developers of this supplement, silica hydride contains a large number of loosely bound electrons that are available to help neutralize potentially dangerous free radicals.1 , 2 Test tube studies have demonstrated that silica hydride does neutralize free radicals and preserves the health of cells exposed to these radicals. However, whether silica hydride can be absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and whether it will affect the health of animals or humans has not been adequately tested.
How It Works
How to Use It
Since silica hydride is not essential, a recommended intake has not been established. Whether it is present in food or water is unknown. Supplements contain 200 to 250 mg per capsule.
