"Heartfelt thanks to my ACRL colleagues for your vote of confidence and the opportunity to serve as your vice-president/president-elect. It is an honor, a privilege and an awesome responsibility," said Goetsch. "I plan to use my presidential year to give special focus to exploring issues and opportunities for library workforce development and the changing skill sets we need in our libraries. Our ability to recruit and retain talented staff for this 'new work' is clearly an issue of growing interest in the profession and is now part of the ACRL Strategic Plan. What is the 'new work' for academic librarians as we see it and as our users see it? I look forward to exploring these questions during my term in office."
Goetsch has held numerous positions in ACRL, including director-at-large on the ACRL Board and member of the 2005 National Conference Invited Papers Committee.

Goetsch was a member of the 1996-97 ALA Equality Award Jury and the ALA Committee on the Status of Women in Librarianship from 1994-96. Her work with state and regional associations includes membership in the Greater Western Library Alliance, where she is currently on the Board of Directors, and on the 2005-06 Planning and Organization Committee.

MILWAUKEE – Mayflies have begun hatching in the Mississippi River, emerging from the water in swarms that show up on radar like thunderstorms, coat roads and other surfaces and leave behind a slimy mess.
The National Weather Service in La Crosse captured a massive swarm on radar Sunday night as flies emerged from the river to mate and drifted north with the wind.
The radar loop shows yellow spots directly over the river as the flies emerge from the water. The swarm morphs into a green band as it drifts north, and blue dots as the flies disperse.
A second, smaller swarm recorded Thursday night appears as a green band that explodes like fireworks into blue dots.
National Weather Service spokesman Dan Baumgardt says the radar captures energy reflecting off the bugs.

The 20 Coolest Beards In Hip-Hop Right Now
Have you checked out Yelawolf's new mixtape, Trunk Muzik Returns, yet? If not, you should do so immediately for two reasons. One, because Yelawolf is dope and he's got some great songs on the project that will help hold you over until he drops his sophomore album, Love Song, later this year. And, two, because the cover of TMR features the Shady Records MC sporting a mean beard. We haven't seen Yelawolf in awhile now and, after seeing the cover, it's clear why we haven't. He's been off growing out his beard so that he could show off a whole new look.
He's obviously not the only rapper sporting a great beard right now, though. In addition to Yelawolf, there are a handful of other MCs rocking their facial hair to perfection. So, we decided to use the TMR cover as the perfect excuse to assemble a collection of The 20 Coolest Beards In Hip-Hop Right Now. From big and bushy to pencil-thin and precise, these guys have the sickest beards in the game today.

I admit it's a grey area but I think it would have been a lot less grey if Lucic charged 100 feet to get involved. I don't get why the lack of distance excuses it. And as I said it was still the correct call by the officials from a game management scenario and what it looked like to them. It's like that Edler goal against the WIngs, there is no way to actually know if the push was what caused Hansen to go down or not the only thing the refs sees at full speed is the contact and Hansen falling. IT's a good call given what he saw (it would also have been a good call to wave off the goal and call incidental contact...could have either way). There was no need for the league to come out and say the wrong call was made because they have no idea from a replay what caused the fall.Reefer2 wrote: Not to defend him but he only had 1 foot in the bench and one on the ice, does that consititute a line change? And Cherry, the reason Sedin got off the ice was because it was a line change and he would of been in trouble if he even touched a guy.
Every canucks on the ice even with it being 6 guys was on the ice legally as they were in the midst of a line change. Henrik was likely smart to be overly cautious but I don't there would have been an issue. IT is the reason they Downie off the hook.
I understand a 10 game suspension would be harsh to Lucic and I can't help but think the NHL had to rescind the game misconduct or suspend him for 10.

Remember that big controversy in January when all of the progress people had made toward the big Darkmoon Faire achievements was reset? Remember how it happened again a month later, but we were promised that it would be saved from that point forward? Well, you can probably guess what happened:
Orlyia -- Issue - Darkmoon Faire
February's Darkmoon Faire achievement progress status was cleared prior to the launch of March's faire. Any achievements that were started but not completed have had their criteria reset. Completed achievements are unaffected. We previously announced that this was resolved for this month and going forward, unfortunately, that did not happen and this is still being investigated for a resolution.
The following achievements are most likely impacted:
The following achievements are most likely impacted:
- Darkmoon Defender
- Darkmoon Dungeoneer
- Darkmoon Despoiler
At this point, I'd recommend to everyone still working on these achievements that you save up your artifacts and turn them all in during one Faire, in order to ensure credit.

§ 240 Terror Cimbrius
1 Olim Cimbri et Teutones populi Germaniae, cum feminis liberisque
2 Italiae adpropinqaverant et copias Romani maximo proelio vicerant.
3 Ubi fuga legionum nuntiata est, summus erat terror totius Romanae, et
4 Romani, graviter commoti, sacra crebra deis faciebant et salutem petebant.
6 Tum Manlius orator animos populi ita confirmavit: "Magnam
7 calamitatem accepimus. Oppida nostra a Cimbris Teutonibusque
8 capiuntur, agricolae interficuntur, agri vastantur, copiae barbarorum
9 Romae adpropinquant. Itaque, nisi novis animus proelium novun
10 faciemus et Germanos ex patria nostra sine mora agemus, erit nulla
11 salus feminis nostris liberisque. Servate liberos! Servate patriam!
12 Antea superate summus quia imperatores nostri fuerunt infirmi. Nunc
13 Marius, clarus imperator, qui iam multas alias victorias reportavit,
14 legiones ducet et animos nostros terrore Cimbrico libreare maturabit."
16 Manlius tum in Africa bellum gerebat. Sine mora ex Africa in Italiam
17 vocatus est. Copias novas non solum toti Italiae sed etiam
18 provinciis sociorum imperavit. Disciplina autem dura laboribusque
19 perpetuis milites execuit. Tum cum pedibus equitibusque, qui iam
20 proelio studebant, as Germanorum castra celeriter properavit. Diu et
21 acriter pugnatum est. Denique barbari fugerunt et multi in fuga ab
22 equitibus sunt interfecti. Marius pater patriae vocatus est.
Once upon a time the Cimbri and Teutons, with their women and children came near to Italy and the forces of the Romans were defeated in a great battle. When the flight of the legions was announced, it was the greatest terror of all Romans, and the Romans, gravely excited, made frequent sacrifice to the gods and sought safety.
At that time the orator Manlius strengthened the people's spirit thus: "Great calamities we have received. Our towns have been captured by the Cimbri and the Teutons, our farmers killed, our fields devastated, the barbarian forces draw near to Rome. And so unless we make a new battle with a new spirit and drive the Germans from our fatherland without delay it will not be safe for our women and children. Save the children! Save the fatherland! Before we were defeated because out generals were weak. Now, Marius, the famous general, who has won won many other victories already, shall lead the legions and will hasten to free our spirits from the Cimbri terror.
At that time Manlius was waging war in Africa. Without delay he was called out of Africa to Italy. He has levied new forces not only from Italy but also from the provinces of our allies. Moreover, he has trained the soldiers by constant discipline and hard labor. Then with the solders and cavalry who were already eager for battle he quickly hastened to the German fort For a long time and fiercely the battle was fought. At last the barbarians took flight and many in flight were killed by the cavalry. Marius was called father of the country.

Heroin epidemic reaches Mount Washington ValleyBy JOHN KOZIOL
Union Leader Correspondent
March 02. 2014 6:19PM
CONWAY — The epidemic of heroin use sweeping across New Hampshire has reached this community in the shadow of Mount Washington.
The New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services, Bureau of Drug and Alcohol Services recently released a report warning of a "dangerous resurgence" of heroin use. Conway Police Chief Edward Wagner confirmed that this community has not gotten off unscathed.
"I think Conway is certainly part of that epidemic," said Wagner, who has been a member of the Conway Police Department for 19 years, the last nine of them as chief.
Wagner said the heroin problem really hit home last month with the arrest in Massachusetts of three young adults who have extensive ties to the Conway area as well as a history of past contacts with Conway police.
The trio — two men and one woman — were arrested on Feb. 6 in the Bay State and charged with illegal possession of heroin.
Wagner said his department's detectives are looking into whether the above arrests signal an even wider prevalence of heroin use than suspected.
Earlier this year, Conway police busted their first methamphetamine lab, said Wagner, adding that a federal drug official explained that where there's one lab, there are probably others. Applying that same rationale to heroin, Wagner said it's not much of a leap to expect that the drug has made inroads into Conway.
Wagner thinks heroin is soaring in popularity because "it's so difficult to get any of the prescription drugs now," with doctors, hospitals and pharmacies keeping a very close on powerful opiates such as oxycodone and its similar cousins. Heroin is also cheaper than many legal drugs being used illegally, Wagner said.

Travel to Vietnam and savour its culture and cuisine from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City
Chop, slice and eat your way through Vietnam, experiencing one of the freshest and most fragrant cuisines on the planet. From pho and ancient buildings in Hanoi, banh khoai and imperial citadels in Hue, banh xeo and lantern-lit streets in Hoi An and banh canh and pulsating markets in Ho Chi Minh City, experience Vietnam's cuisine and its tightly woven place within its culture. Drink in cafes and beer halls that sprawl out over city streets, buy fruit from wicker baskets draped over a vendor's shoulders and sit at market stalls as aromatic noodle soups are whipped up in front of you. Experience all of Vietnam's iconic sights, spend time cooking some of the country's top dishes and get a true taste of Vietnam on this delectable Real Food Adventure.
Get the lowdown on north, central and southern Vietnamese cooking at the country's best cooking schools
A street food tour of Hanoi takes you to the best spots in town to sample northern specialties like pho, bun cha and the golden-yellow xoi xeo (sticky rice with mung bean and fried onion)
Get around the romantic riverside town of Hue in true local style – on the back of a motorcycle
With two nights in Hoi An, there's plenty of time to take in magic of this standout destination. Take a cooking class, cycle through herb gardens and be dazzled by the Ancient Town
The Vietnamese people are some of the most welcoming in the world. A homestay on the Mekong Delta allows you to experience their hospitality, learn their kitchen secrets and get an insight into rural life
No trip to Vietnam is complete without some history lessons. Visit the Imperial Citadel in Hue and the War Remnants Museum in Ho Chi Minh City
This trip aims to give you an exciting, diverse and well-rounded experience of a country's cuisine. While we endeavour to cater for specific dietary requirements, some meals and food activities are set in advance and may be difficult to adjust. Please be aware that in many countries dietary restrictions are not common or well understood. If you have dietary requirements, simply contact your agent at the time of booking for further information on how this may impact on your ability to take part in included activities and meals. Come with an open mind and open mouth, and you won't be disappointed.
This trip involves some long stints of travel, including a 12-hour overnight train to Hue. Although conditions are basic, overnight trains are a true Intrepid experience and the best way to travel long distances, meet locals and maximise time at your destinations. Occasionally passengers of different genders will be required to share a compartment and/or you'll be sharing with locals or travellers from other groups.
In Hue, one day is spent touring the sights on the back of a motorbike. The bikes are great fun and are driven safely by professionals, but alternative transportation can be arranged upon request for those who don't wish to ride on a motorbike.
The weather in Vietnam can be hot and sticky, particularly during the monsoon seasons, so ensure that you pack accordingly. Please also wear sunscreen and a hat, especially when out on a boat in Halong Bay and in the Mekong Delta. It is also recommended to bring warm clothes for Halong Bay, as it can get quite cool on the water in the evenings.
Facilities at the Mekong Delta homestay are quite basic. But an authentic, heart-warming experience of local Mekong life should more than make up for the lack of creature comforts.
Confidence on a bicycle is great, but not absolutely essential. If you would rather not participate in the cycling tour of Hoi An's Tra Que Village, you can explore the local market on foot instead.
This itinerary is valid for departures from 01 January 2018 to 31 December 2018. View the itinerary for departures between 01 January 2019 - 31 December 2019

Our Vietnam Real Food Adventure trips score an average of 4.89 out of 5 based on 196 reviews in the last year.
I cannot recommend the Intrepid food tour highly enough. The cooking classes were fun and educational and the food was exceptional. Highlights included the Halong Bay boat cruise (with gourmet lunch and dinner), cycling through rice fields and herb gardens and sipping cocktails beside the river in Hoi An. We definitely plan to travel with Intrepid again.
Review submitted 22 Sep 2018
This trip was amazing thanks mainly to our tour leader Khoa Duong. The tour was everything the itinerary promised and more. Well done Khoa and Intrepid.

Louisiana Operation Game Thief, a Louisiana wildlife crime-stoppers program, awarded $9,200 to diligent citizens statewide at its quarterly meeting Jan. 26 in Baton Rouge.
The program approved and dispensed $22,100 in cash rewards in 2012 to concerned citizens who reported wildlife violations that led to 79 subjects being apprehended in wildlife cases. A total of 53 cases were presented and 531 offenses associated with those cases in 2012.
For the last quarter of 2012, LOGT issued $9,200 in reward money on 24 cases.
LOGT Coordinator Lt. Will Roberts with Louisiana Department Wildlife Fisheries Enforcement provided LOGT members with information on each case and a recommendation for reward amounts.
"We depend on Operation Game Thief and these public tips to help break a lot of cases that might have otherwise gone unsolved," Roberts said.
Anyone wishing to report wildlife or fisheries violations should anonymously call LDWF's 24-hour toll free Operation Game Thief hotline at 1-800-442-2511 or utilize LDWF's new tip411 program. To use the tip411 program, citizens can anonymously text LADWF and their tip to 847411 or download the "LADWF Tips" iPhone app from the Apple iTunes store free of charge.
CitizenObserver, the tip411 provider, uses technology that removes all identifying information before LDWF receives the text so that LDWF cannot identify the sender.
LOGT was instituted in 1984 and provides cash rewards for information leading to the arrest of violators of fish and wildlife regulations. Funds are raised through private donations, court directed contributions and through contributions from cooperative endeavor agreements with organizations such as the National Wild Turkey Federation and Quality Deer Management Association.
Since its inception in 1984, LOGT has issued $324,700 in rewards.
To make a donation to the LOGT that can be used for cash rewards, please contact Lt. Will Roberts at firstname.lastname@example.com.
LOGT meets quarterly throughout the year to review cases and dispense rewards.

New York Post film critic Kyle Smith has seen two previews of Zero Dark Thirty, the Osama bin Laden manhunt thriller that is opening in New York and Los Angeles just in time for Oscar consideration. Directed by Kathryn Bigelow and written by Mark Boal, the team responsible for The Hurt Locker, the film promised to be something more than an advertisement for Barack Obama, although the filmmakers famously had the cooperation of the Obama administration.
In the event, the film is already bothering liberals. It depicts the role of Bush administration interrogation policy in obtaining a key piece of the information that ultimately led to bin Laden and otherwise contributing to the discovery of bin Laden's whereabouts. Its portrait of Obama is not necessarily flattering. And attentive viewers can actually learn something important from the film. Smith explains "why Zero Dark Thirty is a clear vindication of the Bush Administration's approach to the war on terror."
Attentive readers can certainly learn something from Smith's New York Post column on the film. In case you missed it, it deserves your attention (and Smith has a little more here, where he fears that the film is too detailed and accurate, and therefore a valuable document to our enemies).

GUATEMALA CITY – Guatemalan authorities said Thursday they were investigating whether a man killed in a shootout near the border with Mexico was most-wanted drug lord Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, but hours later backtracked and said they hadn't even located a body or confirmed there was a gunfight.
Government spokesman Francisco Cuevas first told Guatevision Television that two drug gangs had clashed in Peten, an area that has seen an increase in drug violence and that at least two men had died in the shootout.
"We have to wait for all the technical information in order to determine if, in fact, one of the dead is of Joaquin `El Chapo' Guzman," Cuevas said.
Later, Cuevas told Mexico's Televisa network that authorities hadn't yet found a body or the scene where reports said a shootout took place.
He never said what led officials to think that one of the dead men might be Guzman.
But Interior Department spokeswoman Carla Herrera told The Associated Press that one of the victims physically resembled the drug lord. She said officials had asked the Mexican government to send Guzman's fingerprints to compare them to the man found inside a vehicle and to send investigators.
However, Herrera's boss, Interior Minister Mauricio Lopez Bonilla told the AP that it was residents of the town of San Francisco who had told officials of a gunbattle and reported that one of the people killed looked like Guzman.
"The fact is we don't have any of this information confirmed," Lopez Bonilla said.
Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto said late Thursday that he had no information on the case.
"I don't have any information that can confirm that," he told reporters.
Peten province is an isolated area of jungle and ranches where 27 ranch workers were massacred in 2011 by the Zetas drug gang, a top rival for Guzman's Sinaloa drug cartel.
Guzman, who has been in hiding since escaping from a Mexican prison in a laundry cart in 2001, is one of the world's most dangerous and most wanted fugitives.
He's also one of the richest: Forbes magazine has estimated his fortune at $1 billion.

Kirk Hammett on Metallica's Forthcoming Album: 'It's a Pretty Slow Process'
There's no question that Metallica have their plate full, but guitarist Kirk Hammett says the band still hopes to have their next album out by 2014 — yet he won't make any guarantees. In a new interview, Hammett gave an update on Metallica's next album, as well as their other projects.
Speaking about the projected 2014 timeline for Metallica's next album, Hammett tells GulfNews.com's Tabloid!, "That's what we're hoping would happen. Whether that's a reality, we'll see. We're recording stuff here and there, but it's a pretty slow process."
One of the things that's slowed matters has been the band's upcoming 3D concert film. The group's next major project has begun to take shape and Hammett says he's impressed with the results.
He explains, "There's going to be a point when most movies are going to be released in 3D. The genre is just beginning, and we feel that it's going to be the future. There's very little behind-the-scenes footage, and there are no interviews with the band. It's a concert performance and there's a story narrative that weaves in and out with the footage. It's interconnected in a way. It's very unique in that you don't have duality in it — it's intertwined that it becomes one entity. We're very excited about it, because we feel nothing like it has been done before."
He adds, "From the footage we've seen, it looks pretty amazing. It is a trip seeing yourself in 3D, that's for sure! Actually, it's a trip seeing yourself on a 25-feet cinema screen to begin with. The 3D aspect makes it all that much intense."

Hello Tim!!
I cannot tell you to what depth my Bible study has gone because of your exceptional effort in creating this software. I feel as though I have stepped into the hallowed studies of the greats to learn more than I could have ever hoped to on my own with the few references I have. I will never be able to cover it all before Jesus comes or I get to go home. I'm never happier than when I'm buried in His Word. This has been made so much more delightful due to your dedicated work. Thank You!
Now, the reason I'm here.
The reference listed in John Darby's Bible Synopsis, commentary on Daniel 11:1-45,
Chapters 10 & 11, 2nd paragraph, end of 2nd sentence, only reference, Dan 10:32, should be Dan 11:32.
I ran across another one a while back and lost my note. Maybe someone else will catch it!
Thank you again, Tim. Blessings and prayers for your work for our Lord and Savior!

BUENA VISTA, Colo. (AP) — A device that authorities feared might be a bomb in the bed of a pickup in a Colorado mountain town wasn't an explosive after all, the sheriff said Tuesday.
The object was either a practice military shell or a replica of a military shell wired to a cellphone, Chaffee County Sheriff Pete Palmer said.
"It had all the appearances of an IED (improvised explosive device) or something very, very dangerous," Palmer said. "I don't know what the motive was. It was obviously a hoax."
The device was turned over to the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives for analysis at the agency's laboratory in nearby Colorado Springs.
U.S. 24, a busy highway through Buena Vista, was reopened Tuesday afternoon. It was closed while a bomb squad from Colorado Springs determined what the device was.
Buena Vista is a small mining town and whitewater tourist destination about 135 miles southwest of Denver.
A member of the Buena Vista library's maintenance staff discovered the device in the back of her pickup Tuesday morning while it was parked downtown between the library and police station, Palmer said.
Palmer said the woman did not know how the device got into the bed of her truck.
The Buena Vista School District sent out an alert message telling parents that the district has been put on "lockout" status because of the situation, meaning students and staff can move freely through the school but no one is allowed in or out.

Jillian Harris continues her search for true love tonight on The Bachelorette, as she continues to "date" the remaining 13 bachelors. I haven't been blogging much about this show though I have been watching. Not sure if it has to do with the bad taste the whole Jason Mesnick/Melissa Rycroft fiasco left in my mouth, but this season hasn't been as interesting to me.
While Jillian's season has been a tad boring, the guys have yet to disappoint. Plus we finally get to find out tonight that one of the men actually has a girlfriend. Something about this reminds me of a VH1 dating show, so tonight's episode should be GOOD.
And let's not forget the very creepy bachelors casted for Jillian –
We'll start with foot fetish enthusiast Tanner P. I mean wow – does he not see how extremely creepy he comes across? More importantly, how can Jillian not send this creeper packing? All he talks about is "sucking on some toes." Does he even know what Jillian looks like? because he seems to solely (pun intended) focus on her feet during all their one on ones. Something tells me he is on some city's sex offender registry.
And next we have David, who is in dire need of some form of anger management/therapy. The only thing that stands out about him is his loud mouth and multiple tattoos. He seems way more concerned with Juan than he is with Jillian. Still not sure why he made it his mission to bring down Juan.
Finally, we have 35 years old Juan, who is the most hated guy in the house. Are the guys simply jealous of him or do they have a valid reason for hating him? I'm not sure I know the answer to this, as these reality shows are able to get creative with the editing. From what I have seen, I don't see any valid reason they have to hate him.
Recently eliminated contestant, Sasha touches on this topic in his new interview below –
On Juan, the Most Hated Man in the House: "The whole house was against him. It was like instantaneous. Everyone was on it, but David just hates the guy. He's like, 'He's a snake. He's this he's that.' He will bury himself. Everyone thought Juan was a spy, working for the show. He'll kind of alienate himself, and then when he needs to be in the picture, he'll look like he's just one of the guys hanging out when in reality he wasn't doing any of that."
On David's Anger Issues: "His dad had three heart attacks [by age] 50, so it just runs in the family. Some things just bug you. Dave just has a personal mission to almost destroy [Juan] and just make sure he doesn't move forward in the process. Obviously, there are some anger-management issues going on."

I picked this car up from an older gentlman and his son, who had owned the car the previous 20 years, among a few other cars. They worked on this car for years, inside and out they made this car like new, except for a crack in the front dash and a ding in the rear bumper(shop accident). The car has 57,000 original miles. It had sat for years prior to the old gentleman purchasing it, so it needed some work. They had the tranny and engine rebuilt when it had about 32,000 miles, shortly after purchasing it. Over the years included a new interior, paint, undercoating, suspension, you name it.
I have had this car for about 2 years, I have replaced the rear dash, which had deteriorated over the years. I cut a new panel, and wrapped it in brown leather to match the paint, along with new Infiinity speakers, the front dash is currently on order, and will also be painted to match the exterior paint, I have also wrapped the upper door panels in matching brown leather, and painted the lower door panels white, also replacing the rubber arm rest on the door with real wood, the B pillars will also be wrapped in brown leather, and the remaining trim painted white, to match the exterior, I have yet to decide to reupholster the seats in white leather with brown piping or brown leather with white piping, suggestions welcome. I have also tinted the windows to 20% and installed HID headlamps, which are amazing, 3000k bulbs, which turn night into day. I plan on spending some time on the engine, increasing the horspower from 190 to the mid 400's, and advice would be appreciated, thanks.
Also just added the dual exhaust with rectangle tips, looks and sounds mean.
Don't forget to check out my albums

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - The Tennessee Titans have continued the reconstruction of their offensive line by selecting Alabama guard Chance Warmack with the 10th overall pick in the NFL draft.
Warmack, who is 6-foot-2 and 317 pounds, played on three national championship teams at Alabama and started on the 2011 and 2012 title-winning squads. He was a unanimous first-team All-America selection last season and graded at 90 percent or better in eight games.
Tennessee already boosted its offensive line by signing free-agent guard Andy Levitre from the Buffalo Bills to a six-year, $46.8 million contract. The Titans are hoping that improving the interior portion of their offensive line can create more running room for Chris Johnson and provide more protection for quarterback Jake Locker.

PISCATAWAY, N.J., Dec. 19, 2012 /CNW/ - GenScript recently sponsored the Cold Spring Harbor Asia Synthetic Biology Symposium held in Suzhou, China, from Nov. 26 to Nov. 30. This is the second consecutive year that GenScript sponsored the symposium in which scientists from all over the world convened to exchange the latest and most innovative synthetic biology research results. Synthetic biology entails building novel genetic circuits to re-program cells, and has been touted as having great potential in many industrial applications including biofuel, drug, and vaccine production.
As a gene synthesis expert, GenScript presented technical breakthroughs in synthesizing long (>10 kb), complex genes (having high GC content, highly repetitive sequences, complex secondary structures or unstable structural elements), one of the most challenging tasks in synthetic biology research. GenScript recently demonstrated proficiency in long, complex gene synthesis by synthesizing 17 pre-designed chunk fragments (average size: 10 kb each) of yeast chromosome VI, totaling 170 kb. The synthesis was part of the Johns Hopkins University Synthetic Yeast Genome Project, Sc2.0, which aims to build the first functional synthetic eukaryotic genome, totaling 16 Mb. GenScript delivered the chunk fragments to JHU within a short time, and successfully incorporated several pre-designed DNA elements into the sequence such as telomeric repeats and LoxP sites, which are crucial for gene function studies and subsequent genome manipulation. GenScript is the only purely commercial entity to participate in Sc2.0 thus far.
The symposium is just one of the synthetic biology advancement efforts that GenScript supports. GenScript is a long-time sponsor of iGEM, having supported over 20 teams in the collegiate competition. It is also a founding member of the International Gene Synthesis Consortium (IGSC), which seeks to prevent terrorist abuse of synthetic biology technologies. GenScript believes its support of these efforts along with the continued enhancement of its gene synthesis technologies will increase production speed and decrease production price for long, complex genes. Such technological advancements will allow researchers to realize the full potential of synthetic biology faster.
About GenScript
Founded in 2002, GenScript is the world's largest gene synthesis supplier, and a leading biology CRO offering customized services to aid biological research, and drug discovery/development. GenScript is headquartered in Piscataway, NJ, with subsidiaries in Europe, Japan, and China.

In the tale of the Bruins' 2011 run to the Stanley Cup championship, center Chris Kelly will always play a Zorr0-like role.
After all, no other Boston player threw on a mask and produced such dramatic heroics with his face partially hidden.
The full cage Kelly had to wear after Montreal's Scott Gomez pushed the Bruins pivot into the goal post during Game 3 of the first-round Boston-Canadiens playoff series will always invoke great memories, as Kelly finished that series with 3-3-6 totals over the final five games of the seven-game Bruins victory.
After a sour regular-season stint with the Bruins after his trade from Ottawa, you couldn't mask Boston's delight with Kelly's play in the postseason.
Regular season: (with Bruins) 24 GP, 2-3-5, minus 1
Playoffs: 25 GP, 5-8-13, plus-11
Contract status: signed through 2011-12 at a cap hit of $2.125 million
Best regular-season moment: Kelly admittedly had a tough time adjusting to life with the Bruins after such a long time with Ottawa. One of his regular-season bright spots was an assist he recorded in the Bruins' dramatic 2-1 win over Tampa Bay March 3. In his TD Garden debut, Kelly won a battle in the corner and set up Steven Kampfer's game-tying goal in the second period. He finished the night plus-1.
Best playoff moment: With that face mask protecting his facial injury, Kelly was on fire in Game 4 against Montreal with the game-tying goal with 6:18 left in regulation plus two assists (including a helper on Michael Ryder's overtime game-winner). Gomez had to regret injuring and awakening Kelly.
Worst moment: It took Kelly 21 games to score his first goal with the Bruins. Although his game is judged on offense, he was getting the type of minutes that should produce a little punch. March 19 in Toronto was a particularly frustrating night. He was minus-2, lost more than 50 percent of his faceoffs and missed a couple of in-tight scoring chances among his three shots on goal.
Regular-season grade: C-plus
Playoff grade: B-plus. He quieted down offensively over the last two rounds and lost more than 52 percent of his draws.
Carnac predicts … Kelly will settle in as a key performer in Boston's bottom six next season, but might see his even-strength ice time decline depending on the development of Tyler Seguin and Jordan Caron.

One Pricey 'Civic': Honda Starts Production of $4.5 Million Airplane
For years people squawked about the roughly $80,000 price of the first-generation Acura NSX, an exotic sports car from Honda Motor Co.'s luxury-car division. Who would pay so much for what is, in the end, "just a Honda?"
Well, how does $4.5 million sound – for what some people call a Civic?
Honda said its aircraft unit has begun production of the HondaJet, a twin-engine light jet aircraft designed for the business and personal-transport market. Some insiders have called the plane the Civic of the skies in part because it incorporates design and manufacturing techniques used to build the company's Civic economy car.

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — The federal government is suing a now-defunct Texas company on behalf of 32 mentally disabled men who allegedly faced abuse and unsafe living conditions while employed as contract workers at an Iowa turkey plant.
Trial in the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission's civil case against Henry's Turkey Service, of Goldthwaite, Texas, is due to begin Tuesday in Davenport, Iowa.
The company put the men to work at the plant in West Liberty, Iowa, from the 1970s until 2009, when Iowa officials shut down the Henry's-run bunkhouse where they lived after finding unsafe conditions.
A judge has already ordered Henry's to pay more than $1.3 million in back pay after finding they had been paid roughly 41 cents per hour.
The EEOC is expected to seek unspecified compensatory and punitive damages.

AN ADORABLE eight-year-old girl has written to a council accusing it of "forgetting" about her disabled twin brother when it installed new equipment at their local park
Naomi Gwynne wrote to South Lanarkshire Council after finding her brother Isaac was unable to use the swings.
Both children are autistic and Isaac is visually impaired by a brain tumour and has severe learning difficulties, so he cannot hold on to a normal swing.
When they visited a new park near their home in Hamilton, Naomi was disappointed to find Isaac could not use the assisted swings as they were too small, so she wrote a letter to the council.
She wrote: "I like the new park but please could you make a disabled swing for it?
"Isaac my twin brother is too big for a baby swing but can't hold on to the bars of the grown up swings.
"His favourite thing is a swing and we are both sad. Why did you forget about him? I have drawn a swing he would like. Thank you."
The twins' mother Miriam Gwynne, 40, said the children were excited when the park opened on Bothwell Road.
She said: "I was surprised when my daughter asked this weekend if I could help her spell 'disabled' and then she handed me her wonderful letter.
"I was so emotional that she had noticed and cared so much for her twin brother who has such multiple disabilities.
"I was so sad that a brand new park would not be automatically inclusive and so proud of my eight-year-old for standing up for her brother.
"Isaac has complex autism, is non-verbal, has global delay and learning difficulties and nf1 (disorder). He is also visually impaired and requires a lot of care. But to Naomi he is simply her brother who deserves to play and swing as much as anyone else."
TWIN DELIGHTFalkirk same-sex couple set to become first in Scotland to have twins using same surrogate technique as Elton John and David Furnish
FAMILY AFFAIRMum who was raped and beaten by her dad from the age of ten hired a hitman at 16 who MURDERED him
Mrs Gwynne posted her daughter's message on Twitter, calling for people to share it.
The council wrote in a direct message to Mrs Gwynne, which she posted on her page: "We try to include different pieces of inclusive play equipment in each of our play areas to offer variety.
"We have asked the designer to look into whether the existing swing frame can incorporate a disabled seat for Isaac. Thanks for letting us know about this."

PASADENA, Calif., March 14 (UPI) -- Scientists say they have new clues about a phenomenon on Jupiter dubbed "hot spots," cloudless patches providing a window deep into the planet's atmosphere.
Data from the Cassini spacecraft orbiting the giant planet is providing data helping astronomers understand exactly how these clearings form and why they're only found near the planet's equator, NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., reported Thursday.
The findings suggest the hot spots in Jupiter's atmosphere are created by a phenomenon known as a Rossby wave, a pattern also seen in Earth's atmosphere and oceans.
The wave responsible for the hot spots glides up and down through layers of the atmosphere like a carousel horse on a merry-go-round, the researchers said.
On Earth, Rossby waves play a major role in weather, such as when a blast of frigid Arctic air suddenly dips down and freezes Florida's crops.
That happens when a Rossby wave is interacting with the polar jet stream and sending it off its typical course, the researchers said.
"This is the first time anybody has closely tracked the shape of multiple hot spots over a period of time, which is the best way to appreciate the dynamic nature of these features," David Choi at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md., said.
The researchers used Cassini to examine the daily and weekly changes in the sizes and shapes of the Jupiter hot spots, each of which covers more area than North America on average.
The wave responsible for the hot spots circles the planet west to east, gliding up and down in the atmosphere to occasionally create the deep, clear windows into a normally unseen layer of Jupiter's atmosphere, they said.

Ankur Singh selected as associate scientific advisor for Science Translational Medicine
Singh is first Cornell Engineering faculty to serve on the board of interdisciplinary medical journal
Congratulations to Ankur Singh, an Assistant Professor in the Sibley School of Mechanical Engineering and Meinig School of Biomedical Engineering, for being selected as an Associate Scientific Advisor for the journal Science Translational Medicine. Prof. Singh will serve for the period of 2018-2019. Singh is one of 24 early-career translational scientists selected. In addition to acting as an advisor for the journal, Singh will write several pieces for the Editors' Choice section of the journal. Singh is the first Cornell Engineering faculty to serve on the board.
Prof. Singh is an immune-engineer and his lab's research effort centers on creating functional "living" immune tissues to communicate dynamically with human and mouse immune cells, and to manipulate cell's behavior. Using engineering principles, he studies how immune cells undergo decision making at the cellular, molecular, and epigenetic (chromatin) levels to protect humans from infectious threats. He applies principles of biomaterials engineering, fluid mechanics, tissue and material mechanics, cell engineering, and integrate these with fundamental concepts of immunology and pathology. He is further interested in understanding how disruption of normal immune processes result in transformation of "protector" immune cells to "malignant" cancer cells of immune system (called lymphomas). His ultimate goal is to better understand immune-related diseases and develop new therapies, for example antibodies, signaling and epigenetics targeted anti-cancer drugs. He is a recipient of the prestigious NSF CAREER award, DoD Career award, 2017 Society for Biomaterials Young Investigator Award, Cellular and Molecular bioengineering Young Innovators Award, CMBE Rising Star Award, and a 2017 Teaching Excellence Award from Cornell's College of Engineering. His research is funded through the National Institute of Health, National Science Foundation, the Department of Defense, and Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, among others.
A sister journal to Science magazine, Science Translational Medicine is an interdisciplinary medical journal established in October 2009 by the American Association for the Advancement of Science It covers basic, translational, and clinical research on human diseases
