Physarum polycephalum ("many-headed slime") is a giant amoeba with similarities to the common ancestor of amoeba, fungi and animals. Our lab helped analyze its genome to show that it has molecular features that were once thought to be specific for either animals or plants. Like animals (but unlike plants or fungi), Physarum uses tyrosine-kinase signaling for processing. Nick Buchler analyzed cell cycle regulators in Physarum and other amoeboid genomes to show that Physarum may be a better model organism than yeast and fungi for studying conserved mechanisms of cell cycle regulation in the ancestor of amoeba and animals.

\[Editor's Note: Email your IIS-related solutions (400 words or less) to R2R at [email protected]. We'll edit submissions for style, grammar, and length. If we print your contribution, you'll get $100.\]
Conversations about Internet Server API (ISAPI) usually include the word extension or filter. Extensions and filters differ from each other. Extensions have become virtually obsolete, thanks to advances in Active Server Pages (ASP) technology, but you can't replace ISAPI filters.
ISAPI filters literally filter each HTTP request to IIS. As a developer, you can capture specific events from IIS and pre- or postprocess the results. For example, if I want to create a customized log for every Web request, I can capture each HTTP request and log the information to a text file or database; I can further extend the log to include specific information from the Active Directory (AD) for the authenticated user. Or if I need to authenticate against a legacy database, I can capture the authentication event and perform the appropriate actions. All I'm doing is extending the functionality of IIS.
However, ISAPI filters have their drawbacks. A filter is invoked for every HTTP request, so you must be careful that you design the filter properly. Making sure you allocate and deallocate memory correctly is crucial. If you've failed to deallocate even one byte, each HTTP request will cause IIS to consume an additional byte of memory. Also, if the ISAPI filter is flawed, it can prevent IIS from servicing all HTTP requests.
Setting up ISAPI filters through the Microsoft Management Console (MMC) is simple. Right-click the Web site instance on which you want to install the ISAPI filter, then select Properties. Click the ISAPI Filters tab. You'll see three columns of information labeled Status, Filter Name, and Priority, respectively. The status will be green if IIS was able to load the ISAPI filter. Priority refers to the order in which ISAPI filters execute, which is especially important for ISAPI filters that process the same events. Filters with the same priority process sequentially in the order in which they appear. If you want an ISAPI filter to process across all Web site instances, you can add the filter to the master properties of the WWW Service. To add a filter to the master properties, right-click the machine name within the MMC. Select the properties item and the properties dialog for the entire Web server launch. Select WWW Service from the Master Properties drop-down list, then click Edit. You'll see a dialog box similar to the properties of a single Web site.

More stalwart and powerful than even the riders atop them, demigryphs deliver a monstrous charge into enemy battle lines.
Whilst many of the monstrous creatures ridden by the heroes of the Empire have been raised from birth, such is not always the case with demigryphs. Amongst some Knightly Orders, an aspiring Knight's final trial is to capture a demigryph and break it up to his will. Unsurprisingly, many fail and are torn to bloody ribbons. As a result, there are relatively few Demigryph Knights in the Empire and even the Knights Griffon, who count fully two dozen of these majestic beasts amongst their number, still rely primarily on more conventional steeds. However, those few small Orders, such as the Knights of Taal's Fury and the Knights of the Vengeful Sun, whose entire brotherhoods can take to war upon these monstrous beasts, have a roll of victory honours surpassed only by the most ancient of Knightly Orders. Demigryph Knights do not tend to overwhelm their prey in great sweeping charges. Instead they are more likely to engage the enemy in protracted assaults where the strength and endurance of their fearsome mounts becomes decisive. Demigryphs are well suited to the savage and bloody nature of such fighting, with their claws and razor sharp beaks cutting a bloody swathe through their foes. In such close confines, a Knight's traditional lance loses much of its effectiveness, and many Demigryph Knights have thusly adapted their fighting style to wield heavy cavalry halberds in battle instead. These weapons strike the perfect balance between reach and power, and are far better suited to the Knight's role on the battlefield.

Browallia earns its nicknames of amethyst flower and sapphire flower for the richness of its small blue flowers, which pop out like jewels against the bright green of its foliage. A tidy mounding plant, it's great in containers or planted as edging in a neat row at the front of the border.
Plant in a shady spot in spring after all danger of frost has passed. It likes rich soil high in organic matter, so add some compost at planting time. Keep well watered and mulch to keep soil cool and moist. It may not flower in areas where summers are very cool. It may overwinter in the warmest regions (Zones 10-11), especially if covered with loose autumn leaves, straw, or any other light, airy winter mulch.

Natural Hairstyles Braided We all love somewhat romance, though the Romantic movement wasn't actually about knights in shining armour and swooning heroines. Reaching its peak during the early 1800s, this artistic, literary and intellectual movement was given birth to out of a reaction to major world events.
In England, the commercial Revolution heralded in new strategies to manufacturing: skilled craftsmen were out, factories and machines were in everyone was left in a condition of confusion. In The Usa and France, meanwhile, political revolutions had place that transformed entire nations and which turned society upside down.
Out of this mess emerged the Romantics: poets, writers, artists and musicians having a yearning to strike out by themselves that will create something straightforward, beautiful as well as responding towards the complex, prissy art that have gone before. Poets William Wordsworth and Samuel Taylor Coleridge were arguably accountable for the birth of English Romanticism and also the publication of the Lyrical Ballads collection in 1798 changed the path of literature forever. They used plain language, designed to be understood by everyone, and covered everyday topics, having a particular emphasis on nature, imagination and feelings.

Ministers hope urgent legislation will pass through the House of Commons on Thursday and the House of Lords next Tuesday to restore the ability for officers to bail suspects while continuing their investigations.
The 25-year practice was effectively ended in May when the High Court upheld a ruling by a district judge that police must question and charge a suspect within four days of detention.
It sparked fears that tens of thousands of suspected murderers, rapists and other criminals could walk free if police cannot built up a case in time.
The Supreme Court is to consider an appeal against the ruling but the Government has decided to act immediately and change the law, regardless of that process.
The court is not expected to hear the full appeal, by Greater Manchester Police, until July 25, when Parliament will be in recess meaning it would be too late to pass any emergency law should the appeal fail.
Sir George Young, the Leader of the Commons, told MPs yesterday that he hopes the short bill will pass all its stages in the Commons on Thursday.
It will then go to Lords, possibly Tuesday, and will receive Royal Assent if it is unopposed.
The row centres on the police power to bail suspects and bring them back at a later date for further questioning.
More than 85,000 suspects are on police bail at any one time.
For the past 25 years police have interpreted the rules as allowing them a total of 96 hours to hold people in custody, not including breaks while suspects are released on bail, when the "clock stops".
But in April District Judge Jonathan Finestein, sitting at Salford magistrates' court, refused a routine application for the further detention of murder suspect Paul Hookway, who has already spent several months on bail. The High Court backed him in May, giving police just four days from arrest to gather evidence against a suspect and then charge or release them.
A Home Office spokesman said: "We are not prepared to stand by when the police are fighting crime with one arm tied behind their back.
"This bill will restore vital powers to the police that they have operated under without complaint from the courts for the past 25 years."
Hilary Benn MP, Shadow Leader of the Commons, said: "It has taken Home Office Ministers far too long – 6 weeks – to respond to the court judgement which was originally given on 19 May, and the result has been a complete mess with doubt about the enforcement of bail conditions – for example in domestic violence cases."
* Theresa May, the Home Secretary, yesterday criticised police chiefs who she says are continuing to insist that their officers meet performance targets, despite her public pronouncement that they should be scrapped. She accused officers of slavishly following a "tickbox culture".

Now you know a little more about how the magic box on the cop's desk works and how it may not be reliable, what do you do about that when asked to blow?
1. Were you read your DR 15 rights? If you were not properly advised of your rights and signed off on the form you are not required to do anything. Albeit if the officer somehow failed to advise you of your rights, you may not elect to bring this to his attention just to allow him to fix the problem.
2. If you were properly advised it is very important that you have the advice of counsel to further evaluate your situation prior to you giving evidence against yourself. That is, blowing in the machine will result in evidence against you. Your government has somehow come to the conclusion that this is non-testimonial evidence and therefore you lose certain safeguards but that is a post for another day. The important thing is to contact counsel, if possible, for advice.
3. If DUI counsel is not available then you should understand that your failure to provide a breath sample will result in your driver's license being suspended administratively for 120 days. This
is untenable for a DUI suspect so they may be compelled to blow against their better judgment.
4. However, if this is a multiple offense for the driver, ie. second, third or fourth, one may want to consider very carefully the ramifications of blowing and severely hurting one's case versus loss of license (which may be modifiable by an interlock) because on a multiple offense the very real possibility of jail time becomes magnified and enhanced.
5. If one does provide a sample which is over the legal limit, some of the administrative penalties can be avoided and one always has the potential defenses to the machine as discussed in earlier posts regarding reliability.
So, what to do if arrested for DUI? It's a personal decision which can be assisted if counsel is available to discuss the matter. Ironically, as an arrested driver pending a test, not only do you have the absolute right to speak with counsel prior to giving a breath sample, you have the right to a face-to-face communication with your attorney at the police station prior to blowing if you request same. Here's where it gets fun because most police either do not know that you have this right or they will not allow you to exercise the right if you request it. Therefore, be sure to exercise your constitutional right and ask to speak with counsel prior to giving any test. Should the police deny your right to counsel, the evidence obtained or lack thereof will probably not be admissible against you in court.

Over the years we've seen and experienced many challenges and barriers in the constantly evolving renewable energy industry. There are regulatory hurdles, technical challenges, and consumer acceptance, to name a few. But one of the biggest impediments to widespread change has always been finance. Now, the emerging finance method of "crowd funding" has provided a new way to leave out third parties, provide energy and monetary benefits to investors and democratize energy in the true sense. The five platforms listed below are the top leaders in renewable energy crowd funding, based on the money they have raised so far.
by Aishani Mishra - Solarplaza
#1. Windcentrale
Launch: 2010
Country: The Netherlands
Money Raised: ~14.3 Million Euros
Average ROI: 7%
Model: Investors raise capital to acquire windmills and use energy generated to power their households.
Launched in 2010, Windcentrale has raised up to 14.3 Million Euro up untill today, making it the world's biggest renewable energy crowdfunding platform. The record breaking project that raised 1.3 million euro in 13 hours (!) was just one of its many endeavours. The model it operates under is fairly simple: money is raised by private individuals on the platform to acquire windmills; each investor becomes an owner; and, thus, reaps the (financial) benefits. On average, every investor receives about 500 kWh per year, enough to take care of their energy bills for the next 12-15 years. With financial returns of 7% (if energy prices continue to increase at 3% annually), investing with Windcentrale is highly appealing. The platform aims 'to accelerate the switch to sustainable energy in The Netherlands' and surely they have - within their short four year span - made themselves a household name in the world of crowdfunding.

#2. Abundance Generation
Launch: 2009
Country: United Kingdom
Money Raised: ~8 million Euros
Average ROI: 7.25%
Model: investors receive percentage of the revenue or profit generated from the sale of the electricity produced by the project.
Though launched in 2009, Abundance Generation's platform actually began operations in 2012, after a long process to become the first crowd funding platform to be authorized by the Financial Conduct Authority. Abundance Generation allows investors to put their money in many different types of alternative energy projects in the UK. The platform enables investors to start putting in money from the age of 18 and up. Well known for its investing model - allowing people to lend as little as 5 Pounds - the platform has raised approximately 8 Million Euro today. Investors can expect up to 8.6% of financial returns with debentures that last for 20 years. Taking a different approach than Windcentrale, investors don't receive energy benefits, but money straight into their pockets. The investors get a claim on a percentage of the revenue or profit generated from the sale of the electricity produced by the project. Although the platform currently primarily operates in the area of renewable energy, they aim to venture into social needs and ethical benefits in the future.

#3. Mosaic
Launch: 2013
Country: United States of America
Money Raised: ~6.3 Million Euros
Average ROI: 5%
Model: investors receive percentage of the revenue or profit generated from the sale of the electricity produced by the project.
Launched in 2013 , Mosaic has made more than 6 Million euro in a very short span of time. The platform operates similarly to Abundance energy, providing investors with returns generated through the sale of the solar energy generated by the project. The company functions like a virtual renewable energy bank, soliciting investments for solar projects and giving out loans that are to be paid back, typically, over about 10 years. The platform allows investors to invest from $25 on and provides them with returns of an average of 5%. The platform has become a major player in its own right in the solar PV market where more and more investors have become interested in crowd financing models for their solar projects. It has drawn a lot of attention from the media, and is usually being refferred to as the 'kick starter' for solar (for instance, by well known 'techie blog , TechChrunch). The platform is well known as the first US online marketplace for solar and is seen to be rapidly growing in the sector with many upcoming projects. Currently only investors from New York and California are able to participate, but the platform aims to enable investors from other states to be part of their success.

#4. Trillion Fund
Country:United Kingdom
Money Raised: ~1.4 Million Euros
Average ROI: 7.98%
Model: investors receive percentage of revenue or profit generated from sale of the electricity produced by the project
Trillion Fund was founded in 2011 and has the ambitious aim to collect 1 Trillion Dollars globally, the amount of money required to invest in clean energy projects globally. The platform allows customers to choose the projects they would like to invest in from various other energy enterprises and developers. Projects are in areas of wind,solar,hdro and biomass. The peer to peer lending platform was publicly launched in June 2013 and has reached a whopping 7000 user base. Apart from peer to peer lending, the platform allows users to back projects by bonds, debentures and shares in local cooperatives and fund. Trillion Fund is unique in the way that it doesn't only provide projects solely available by them but projects by companies like Abundance Generation and E2 Energy providing users with a large directory of projects to choose from.Similar to other platforms, the investors receive monetary benefits from the electricity sold from the renewable energy project .The platform has merged with Buzzbnk recently, a platfrom for social entrepreneurs and aims to achieve 500 Million Pounds by end of 2017.Interestingly the platform has generated approximately 1 Million Euros in a short span of time and is definitely a platform to watch out for!

#5. GenCommunity
Launch: 2013
Country: United Kingdom
Money Raised: ~1256 K Euros
Average ROI: No data
Model: Investors earn money on energy sold from the projects their financed and communities with limited resources benefit from the electricity provided.
The GenCommunity platform launched in 2013, has only had two projects so far but has raised around 1 Million Pounds with these two projects. Their aim is to develop and invest in socially beneficial projects that build community knowledge and resilience, alleviate fuel poverty, and support the sustainability and security of UK energy supplies. The platform allows investments for solar PV projects across UK with returns of an average of 7% and 30% electricity saving per annum which approximately saves 12.000 pounds per annum. The platform aims to help communities that are in 'fuel poverty' and don't have resources to overcome their obstacles by enabling investors to lend capital for these projects. The model is a win-win system where investors receive capital rewards and communities receive energy benefits. The platform has received the British Renewable Energy Award in 2013 for their contributions.

Honourable mention: Solar Schools
Launch: 2011.
Country: United Kingdom
Money Raised: ~511K Euros
Average ROI:No data
Model: Communities fund projects for the local schools and receive payments through FITs and schools benefit from energy generated through the project.
Solar Schools is an initiative to install PV panels of the rooftops of schools across England and Wales. The platform allows parents, teachers and local communities to fund as little as 5 Pounds to install PV panels on the roofs of local schools. So far, 50 schools have joined the scheme and 25 have installed their solar panels. A further 15 will start crowdfunding in October. Solar Schools is run by carbon cutting campaign 10:10. Schools receive Feed in Tariffs from the energy generated by their panels and receive energy benefits from the panels as well, guaranteed up to 20 years. This scheme has developed energy consciousness amongst the youth and has bought communities closer and more importantly have raised over 511.000 Euros.

MCD teacher sentenced to 10 yrs in jail for dowry death
A Delhi court on Wednesday sentenced an MCD school teacher to 10 years in jail for driving his 25-year-old wife to suicide by constantly harassing her for dowrydelhi Updated: Apr 26, 2012 00:04 IST
A Delhi court on Wednesday sentenced an MCD school teacher to 10 years in jail for driving his 25-year-old wife to suicide by constantly harassing her for dowry
"This (dowry deaths) needs to be checked with drastic measures," Additional Session Judge Gurdeep Singh said while sentencing Naveen under Sections 304B and 498A of the IPC.
As per the prosecution, Naveen had married the deceased on November 26, 2004 and since then till the time of her death she was constantly harassed with dowry demands.
The judge pointed out that the young woman was married for less than a year before she died. She had just completed her MA and had diplomas in naturopathy, lab technology and railway transport management.
Section 304B of the IPC deals with the offence of dowry death, in which a woman is subjected to cruelty and harassment before her death for dowry. Section 498-A deals with cruelty by husband or his relative(s).
On the evil of dowry, the judge said "The tag of bridegroom is somewhat fixed as government jobs will fetch more dowry than a private job and it is open price tag as if it is a market."
The court also added that the parents of the girl must be sensitive towards her suffering and should be ready to accept the girl back if she is not being treated well by her in-laws.
The judge said dowry cases have gone unreported as it has the backing of the society or that adequate punishment to these criminals is not given.

Some notion, however imperfect...
Not long ago, on a walk through southern England, I visited Down House, sixteen miles south of London, for forty years the family home of Charles and Emma Darwin. Here Darwin lived and worked, in the midst of large and happy family, in relative seclusion from the hustle and bustle of scientific London. His home, garden, greenhouse, dovecote, and the land around were his laboratory, and here he assiduously gathered evidence to buttress the one great idea that had taken root in his mind during his early round-the-world voyage on H.M.S. Beagle: the transmutation of organisms by natural selection.
The idea was not original with Darwin. His grandfather Erasmus Darwin, among others, had toyed with the idea of transmutating organisms. Then, in 1858, after working on his theory for twenty years, Charles received a copy of an essay by the naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace advancing a hypothesis identical to Darwin's own. This unexpected development prompted Darwin to hurriedly bring his great work into print.
On the Origin of Species by means of Natural Selection or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life was published in November 1859, to instant scientific acclaim and public notoriety. Although the central idea was identical to that of Wallace, so forcefully did Darwin amass evidence for evolution by natural selection that the idea has quite properly come to be known as "Darwinism."
Why Darwin? Even as a young man Charles seems to have been gifted with a capacity to observe without preconception. He flirted briefly with becoming a doctor, like his father and older brother, but found he had no stomach for observing pain. (In the days before anesthetics doctors needed to be hardened to the agonies of their patients.) His innate sympathy with living beings served him well as an observer on the Beagle voyage.
Young Darwin had also flirted with becoming a man of the cloth, but his growing doubts about Christianity dissuaded him from that course. His detachment from Christian dogma reinforced his skill as an unbiased observer of the natural world. When the opportunity came to be resident naturalist on the five-year voyage of the Beagle, Darwin jumped at the chance. It would be the defining experience of his life. Everything he saw on the voyage he saw afresh, with a mind that was awake and aware of new possibilities.
Of course, a necessary prerequisite for natural selection to work is time -- lots and lots of time -- and this Darwin was supplied by the geologists. There is a moment in Origin of Species when Darwin describes one of his favorite walks, to the chalk escarpment at the edge of the North Downs, a few miles south of his home, with views far out over the Weald toward the mirroring chalk escarpment of the South Downs twenty miles away. Standing there he could imagine the huge uplifted arch of folded chalk and sandstone that must have been eroded away to create this wide vale, all during relatively recent geological times.
The vanished strata might have been 1,100 feet thick, he calculated, and at present rates of erosion it would have taken 300 million years for water and weather to eat away the rocks. He wrote: "I have made these few remarks because it is highly important for us to gain some notion, however imperfect, of the lapse of years. During each of these years, over the whole world, the land and the water have been peopled by hosts of living forms. What an infinite number of generations, which the mind cannot grasp, must have succeeded each other in the long roll of years."
After my visit to Down House, I walked the country lanes and footpaths to where Darwin might have stood at the lip of the North Downs, and let my own imagination reconstruct the great arch of rock that once stood in place of the valley that lay before me. Thanks to Darwin and his geologist contemporaries, my mind could readily grasp "the long roll of years."
And more. The same now-vanished chalk strata that were folded upward over the Weald, dip downward to the north and south under London and the English Channel -- or so Darwin believed on the basis of surface evidence. Chalk is a perfect material for tunneling: strong, impermeable to water, and easily penetrated by boring machines. The new Channel Tunnel -- or Chunnel -- makes its way from England to France almost entirely within the chalk strata, dipping 200 feet below the sea floor to follow the gently folded rock -- confirming by being there what Darwin saw only imperfectly in his mind's eye.
Further Reading
There have been a slew of superb Darwin biographies. If I could pick one to recommend, for its original take on Darwin's life and work, it might be Randal Keynes's Charles Darwin, His Daughter and Human Evolution. Keynes is Darwin's great-great-grandson. His book is a portrait of the scientist amid the bustling domesticity of his family home in the countryside southeast of London. The title refers to Darwin's adored eldest daughter, Annie, who died at the age of 10, apparently of tuberculosis. Annie's death is the lens through which Keynes examines the development of Darwin's ideas about God and human nature. During his daughter's illness, Darwin was at Annie's bedside day and night. Her death gave poignant meaning to his developing notions of the amorality of nature and the struggle of all creatures for survival.
In the fall of 2003, I walked along (or nearly so) the Prime Meridian, the line of zero longitude, from the English Channel near Brighton to the North Sea in Lincolnshire. My walk took me to Darwin's home, which lies close to the meridian. The story of that walk is in the hands of an editor, and, with luck, will find its way into print. The tentative title is Walking Zero: How We Found Our Place in Space and Time.
Student Activities
- At the end of The Origin of Species, Darwin writes: "There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been originally breathed into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved." Discuss, particularly the word "breathed."
- The biologist Stephen Jay Gould called his 20-year column in Natural History magazine This View of Life, quoting Darwin. Gould expands on Darwin's remark: "For sheer excitement, evolution, as an empirical reality, beats any myth of human origins by light-years. A genealogical nexus stretching back nearly 4 billion years and now ranging from bacteria in rocks several miles under Earth's surface to the tip of the highest redwood tree, to human footprints on the moon. Can any tale of Zeus or Wotan top this? When truth value and visceral thrill thus combine, then indeed, as Darwin stated in closing his great book, 'there is grandeur in this view of life.' Let us praise this evolutionary nexus - a far more stately mansion for the human soul than any pretty or parochial comfort ever conjured by our swollen neurology to obscure the source of our physical being, or to deny the natural substrate for our separate and complementary spiritual quest." Discuss, particularly the last phrase, "natural substrate for our separate and complementary spiritual quest."

ex·em·plar/ig'zempl?r/ n. one that is worthy of imitation; a model
The Xmplar-dr is the name of the Lodox full-body X-ray scanners for hospital and clinic use. It was named so because it is the "the model", or exemplar, for high speed, low-radiation radiography that all clinicians should aspire to. The new machine offers a number of technological advances, based on user-feedback, that optimise its use and further secure its place as the ideal imaging modality for trauma centers.
What do the Lodox Scanners do?
Both the Xmplar-dr and Statscan utilize Linear Slot Scanning Technology to provide radiographs of the entire body in just 13 seconds without using stitching or re-takes of any kind. This unique technology allows these images to be produced at a very low dose to the patient (just 0.12mGy entrance dose) and attending staff, while at the same time maintaining an excellent image quality that is equivalent to or better than conventional radiography systems.
A rotating C-arm allows images at any angle from 0° (AP) to 90° (lateral) to be obtained. With a simple user-interface, optimised pre-set technique factors, and straightforward controls, the system is also easy to operate; allowing complete, two-view examinations to take place in less than 5 minutes.
In short, the Lodox scanners serve as a model for digital radiology that rapidly and safely provides clinicians with high quality X-ray information of the entire body.
Technical Features
Some of the outstanding features of the scanners are:
- Compact and integrated award-winning design that is both aesthetically pleasing and practical for hygiene purposes.
- Custom designed 'smart' gurney including:
- Single-touch automatic lifting and lowering of the table to accommodate the C-arm at any angle
- Radio-lucent, adjustable side rails
- Normal (220kg/440lbs) or bariatric (330kg/660lbs) weight capacity
- Electrical operation for lifting and lowering the table, guided from either the trolley, remote control or user interface
Image Quality, Reliability & Ease of Use
Image Quality
Our exceptional image quality can be attributed to the noise- and scatter-rejecting design of the system.11 The use of Time Domain Integration and Linear Slot Scanning Radiography result in images that have been found to be equal to or better than conventional X-ray images for the detection of thoracic, pulmonary, mediastinal, pelvic and peripheral injuries.4
Lodox images have a pixel sixe of 60?m, up to 5 line-pairs/mm limiting spatial resolution and more than 16000 grey levels of contrast resolution. This is supported by patented image-processing and viewing software resulting in high-definition, high-contrast images.
Lodox prides itself on its quality engineering and production that results in a product built to withstand the rigours of busy trauma and forensic pathology centres. Further to this, we ensure that the engineers who provide our technical services are highly skilled and trained, and are prepared to respond to any technical issues swiftly and competently.
Ease of Use
Both the Statscan and the Xmplar-dr systems are designed for use in environments where speed is of the essence, and its usability features compliment this. A clear, simple to follow, step-by-step user interface guides the user through each step of the process. The C-arm, rotation angle and start- and stop- positions can be set using either the user-interface or the remote control.
One of Lodox's key usability features is the fact that the technique factors (kVs and mAs) for each exam are automatically optimized depending on the size of the patient and the area being investigated. This simplifies the imaging process considerably, and ensures that best quality images are obtained for every scan without the need for re-takes.
The Lodox Xmplar-dr is primarily targeted at trauma units and Lodox Statscan is tailored for forensic pathology (medico-legal) centres, as both have full-body, high-speed, low dose imaging capabilities. To read more about these applications, please visit our Trauma and Forensic Pathology pages.
During Lodox's use by innovative clinicians, the system has also been found to be particularly useful in a variety of imaging investigations. It has been shown to be superior to conventional radiographs for visualisation of the main bronchii for the detection of TB and lung pathology 12, and also found to be useful in determining the presence and location of foreign bodies such as bullets. 7 When applied to imaging of ventriculo-peritoneal shunts, it provides a complete view of placement at a much reduced radiation load for these frequently imaged patients.13 This same ability to image a large area has also been found useful in identifying and localising foreign bodies in trauma and criminal cases. 15 Other applications include bone cancer scanning,16 emergency room arteriography,17 single-shot Intravenous Pyelograms and as a tool for acquiring accurate anatomical measurements on radiographs.18
Two areas of application to which the Lodox LSSR technology is particularly suited is in paediatrics, and the imaging of bariatric patients.
Significantly lower radiation dose and high diagnostic image quality make Lodox a first-choice for paediatric poly-trauma, providing more comprehensive and efficient triage imaging.4, 8 The shorter examination time requires a lower degree of patient compliance and the low level of scattered radiation allows concurrent resuscitation.4, 8 The full-body X-ray image is particularly helpful in the diagnosis of non-accidental injuries in children. 8
The open C-arm design improves accessibility for imaging of large patients and the load- bearing design of the bariatric trolley permits weight up to 300 kg (660 lbs). The unique, focused fan-beam of the linear slit-scanning technology improves image quality by reducing large-patient scatter degradation.
To see images from some of these applications, please view our Trauma Image gallery.
Diagnostic Viewing System
The scanning systems include custom image viewing and manipulation software, contained in the Diagnostic Viewing Station or DVS. This software application allows zooming, cropping and annotation of images. Images are optimised for viewing using the lucidTM and de-noise software, which provide the best balance of grey levels for viewing both soft tissue and bony areas. However, windowing and levelling can also be custom-adjusted using an on-screen control. Images can be exported and saved from the software, and sent to PACS and HIS/RIS systems.
User Interface
The Xmplar-dr and Statscan are operated by a user-interface which aids the operator to take the best images in the shortest amount of time. The clear, step-by-step approach is designed to maximise ease of use by guiding the user through each imaging procedure, and providing clear feedback. Imaging studies are selected with the touch of a single icon, which automatically sets optimal technique factors based on patient size and region of interest, allowing high quality images of any area to be obtained quickly and consistently.

Jane Bonner, Councilwoman
Councilwoman Jane Bonner is a longtime advocate for the people of northeastern Brookhaven Town, where she was elected to the Town Council in 2007. Prior to her election, she served as the Legislative Aide to former Suffolk County Legislator Dan Losquadro. Jane has also served as president of the Rocky Point Civic Association, and during her tenure helped residents of the area by solving the problems they were experiencing in their neighborhoods. As a constituent services liaison she helped community members navigate their way through town, county, state and federal agencies.
As the past president of the Rocky Point Revitalization and Beautification Committee, her vision for a better future through responsible planning continues to have a positive effect on the community. She secured more than a half million dollars in grant money for the Rocky Point downtown business corridor, making Main Street more attractive and improving the quality of life for all residents.
Today, Councilwoman Bonner is a leading voice for Brookhaven residents, small business owners, seniors, children and the environment. Her actions on behalf of the constituents that she serves make a positive impact on the community. The Route 25A Corridor Study, which helped to achieve smart growth development all along the district's busiest road, has saved small business mom and pops from big box stores and overdevelopment. She rescued the Nature Center at Cedar Beach from demolition and created an educational environmental learning center for children, and preserved hundreds of acres of land as open space to be enjoyed for generations to come.
Councilwoman Bonner was also instrumental in establishing a new solar code that bans clear cutting trees for solar farms anywhere in the Town. Infrastructure projects that she has supported along the north shore protect the water quality of the Long Island Sound, Mount Sinai Harbor, Wading River Duck Pond and more. As Town Board Liaison to the Finance, Councilwoman Bonner has worked tirelessly to cut wasteful spending and save taxpayer dollars by supporting a fiscally conservative budget.
Councilwoman Jane Bonner will continue to work to help make Brookhaven Town a better place to live for everyone.

Monthly Check-In
Title: The USGS National Water-Quality Assessment Project: Evaluating the effects of humans and climate on water quality
Lori Sprague, USGS, National Water-Quality Assessment Project
Sustaining the quality of the Nation's water resources and the health of our diverse ecosystems depends on the availability of sound water-resources data to develop effective, science-based policies. In 1991, Congress established the National Water-Quality Assessment (NAWQA) project to collect and evaluate information on water chemistry and aquatic life to provide insights on surface and ground water issues throughout the United States. The NAWQA project addresses where, when, why, and how the Nation's water quality has changed, or is likely to change in the future, in response to human activities and natural factors. This presentation will provide an overview of the NAWQA project and describe some of the on-going and planned activities that involve evaluations of climate impacts.

Katie LaPotin, Red Alert Politics, December 3, 2012
Washington insiders have always called Congress an "old boys club." And why would they call it anything different today? After all, the average age of the incoming class of Congressman is 58 years and in the Senate, it is 61 years, very close to the all-time highs set in 2007 by the 110thCongress of 57 years and 63 years.
Last month's elections did help plant some cracks in the proverbial glass ceiling, however. Walking into the chambers for the first time this January will be a crop of new members under the age of forty bringing some much-needed change and youth to the halls of the United States Congress.
Seven of these new Congressmen, including Patrick Murray (D-Fla.) and Markwayne Mullin (R-Okla.) are age 35 or younger. Four of them were born in or after 1980, a 200 percent increase from the 112th Congress, the current session of Congress, when only Republicans Aaron Schock (Ill.) and Justin Amash (Mich.) were born in the eighties.
Several other current members are under the age of 40, including Reps. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) and Sean Duffy (R-Wisc.), but weren't born post-MTV in the eighties.
Many of these new members also bring with them extensive political backgrounds despite their youth. Democrat Tulsi Gabbard, elected last month to represent Hawaii's Second Congressional District, is a combat veteran and the youngest person to ever be elected to the Hawaii State Legislature. Massachusetts Democrat Joseph P. Kennedy has spent his entire life in the political sphere. As the grandson of Robert F. Kennedy and the son of former Massachusetts Congressman Joseph P. Kennedy II, politics literally runs in Kennedy's blood.
Another 11 new Members of Congress are between the ages of 36 and 40 (a twelfth, Democratic Senator-Elect Chris Murphy, is not exactly "new" considering he represented Connecticut's Fourh District in the last Congress). In short, the number of Congressmen under the age of forty this term will be nearly double that during the 110thCongress six years ago.
So why is this? According to Politico, social media has a played a large role in this increase. Amash told the paper that his use of social media has been "helpful picking up support and respect from people on the other side of the aisle." The Congressman is well-known in Washington for posting his own tweets instead of relying on a staffer to update the site.
And this trend appears to be rubbing off on his new peers. Incoming Democrat Eric Swalwell of California "plans to connect with his Bay Area constituents during city council and school board meetings using Web chats – timing them so he can speak to the groups when they're meeting on the West Coast."
Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wisc.) and Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) – both of whom are in their forties – will be the first to admit that they are far different from their elder colleagues, starting with their music choices. Perhaps the playlists of these upcoming new members will also include far more Nirvana and Eminem than the Congress before them, too.
