The inspiration was, and is, Havana's colonial and neoclassical architecture, as well as the unique and intimate architecture found in Cuba's interior and small towns. Geography plays a secondary role, grounding the architecture within a context of rich and verdant landscapes, majestic hills, and the same azure sea he saw daily from his childhood window.

Will Neil Gorsuch Become a Supreme Court Justice?Posted: March 3, 2017 Filed under: Donald Trump, Politics, U.S. Supreme Court | Tags: Antonin Scalia, Donald Trump, Neil Gorsuch, Supreme Court 4 Comments
Will Neil Gorsuch Become a Supreme Court Justice?
by JBS President Emeritus John F. McManus
On January 31st, President Trump nominated Judge Neil Gorsuch to fill the open seat on the U.S. Supreme Court. If he wins Senate approval, he would fill the seat formerly held by Justice Antonin Scalia who died in February 2016.A full year ago, President Obama nominated Judge Merrick Garland to succeed Scalia. But Senate Republicans, led by current Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), refused to hold hearings on that nomination. Republican senators concurred, saying they were only following a precedent set by Democrat Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.). He indicated a determination to block Senate approval of any new nominees while a president's term was winding down. Although he added a qualifying "except in extraordinary circumstances" to his intention, he made clear that he and Democrat colleagues would block adding anyone appointed by President George W. Bush.
When the New York Democrat stated that position, Mr. Bush had approximately 18 months to go before he would have to leave the White House. When the Republicans decided to block consideration of Merrick Garland, Obama had slightly less than a year before his term in office would end. Pointing to Schumer's 2007 stance, Senator John Cornyn (R-Texas) stated, "We're embracing the precedent Senator Schumer advocated in 2007. If it's good enough for [Democrats] when they're in the majority, it's good enough for us when we are."
Merrick Garland's chance to become a Supreme Court justice died when Donald Trump triumphed over Hillary Clinton last November. He continues to serve as the Chief Justice of the Washington D.C. Federal Appeals Court.
Regarding Neil Gorsuch, we have learned that he never issued a ruling on the contentious issue of abortion. But, in his book, The Future of Assisted Suicide and Euthanasia, he wrote that if the Supreme Court had defined a fetus as a "person," it never would have approved abortion as it did in 1973 with the Roe v. Wade decision. Other stands he has taken indicate that he is an opponent of intentional killing, including euthanasia. Karen Middleton, the executive director of NARAL Pro-Choice Colorado, insists that Judge Gorsuch should be considered a pronounced enemy of abortion.
On other matters of interest to conservative Americans, Gorsuch sided with the Hobby Lobby Stores in their plea for an exemption to Obamacare's requirement that they pay for employee contraception practices. He also agreed with Utah Governor Gary Herbert's failed effort to avoid being forced to fund Planned Parenthood.
In general, Gorsuch has been dubbed an "originalist," a believer that the words and meaning of the Constitution should be honored as they were understood at the time they were written. In other words, new meanings should not be created for them. That alone means he is very much in sync with the late Justice Scalia who strongly advocated such an attitude. After a career that most recently had him serving on the Denver-based 10th Circuit Court of Appeals, Judge Gorsuch considers such matters as abortion, euthanasia, and contraception should not be judged in courtrooms, a practice that he feels is bad for the country and bad for the judiciary.
Concerns have been raised by some about Gorsuch's five-year membership in the New York-based Council on Foreign Relations. The fact that his affiliation with the CFR lasted only five years is possibly significant. The world government promoters at the CFR regularly look for bright and ambitious young people to whom they give five-year term memberships in hopes that they will adopt the CFR thinking. Gorsuch's name appears as a CFR "term" member in 2004 and that membership is noted until 2008. He may have formally resigned or just walked away. Or the CFR moguls may have decided he was not what they had hoped for. Others have similarly decided the CFR was not for them. Not completing the five-year term with the CFR may mean that he didn't like what he learned of this key Establishment organization. To date, he has never commented about this matter.
If Neil Gorsuch follows the lead set by Antonin Scalia, the man whose place on the court he will fill if approved by the Senate, chances are that he will follow in the footsteps of the late jurist. And that would be good for America.

4 Comments on "Will Neil Gorsuch Become a Supreme Court Justice?"
Gorsuch's name appears on five of the CFR's membership lists, not four. The CFR's membership lists for the following years contain Gorsuch's name:
Year 1: 2004
Year 2: 2005
Year 3: 2006
Year 4: 2007
Year 5: 2008
The mere fact that Judge Gorsuch was considered for membership in the CFR is troubling. If one reads the qualifications for membership in any CFR annual report, only the rarest individuals can ever be qualified for membership. They would have to be recommended by incumbent CFR members, who rarely make a mistake in qualifying candidates for membership. Apparently Gorsuch met those strict qualifications, and must have felt honored in the beginning by the invitation to join. Since Gorsuch fulfilled his term membership, he must have had some sense of alliance with the CFR over those five years.
I believe that Gorsuch will be handily passed by the Senate under the influence of the CFR.
Thankfully, Left-wing radical Merrick Garland's rejection was a close shave for the United States.
As it is, in my opinion, the Supreme Court already contains too many left-wing radicals, some of whom are CFR members.

Basketball has navigated Kevin Jolley well beyond his Washington, D.C. roots.
Jolley got his streetball teeth cut on some of the toughest courts throughout Washington, D.C. and the DMV landscape.
The former Quinnipiac forward's collegiate and professional career featured stops in Maine, Kansas, Connecticut, Germany, Iceland, Israel, Lebanon, and a wide range of countries across God's green earth.
Back on U.S. soil as an assistant coach at Colby Community College in Colby, Kan., Jolley feels he's right at home. He has no second thoughts about hanging up the kicks. He's always considered coaching and evaluating talent a viable career option.
Jolley began his professional career with the loud bang of a windmill dunk.
He immediately surfaced as an offensive threat for team Lawrence (SBR) in the SB DJK Rosenheim Pro Basketball Club in Germany. Playing on a high-horsepower team that scored 90+ points, Jolley went from post player to strictly a scorer.
Manipulative post moves, a feathery mid-range jumper, and forays to the hoop enabled Jolley to score at will. Once the glaring knock on his game, Jolley refined his mid-range and deep jumper. He worked with a barrage of shooting coaches and adjusted his form.
A rapid rise in role followed. Jolley averaged a team-best 31.5 points per game, relishing a sudden uptick in minutes.
"I came in and immediately played 37 minutes per game here, it was definitely a new opportunity. Coming from playing 11 minutes a game my last year at QU, I had more chances to score," explained Jolley.
While acclimatizing to Germany, the language barrier presented a challenge. Slowly, Jolley picked up on his teammates' puzzling talk.
He admitted to, however, feeling a bit left out during German conversation.
"The coach will talk and yell in German during the time outs, I'll sit there and drink water and he'll just turn to me and say 'good job.' It's funny."
Jolley's career took him to Lebanon, Syria, Saudia Arabia, Portugal, Jordan, Mexico, Luxembourg, Israel, Palestine, and Iceland.
"My career took off in Lebanon," explained Jolley.
"It was a well-respected league, good crowds, good pay, and there were a good deal of ex-NBA players in the league. I averaged 27 and 14 there and really came into my own."
A6-foot-4 forward who dealt with mismatches throughout college, Jolley's back to the basket moves helped him thrive.
A player of Jolley's make-up was sought after in the German league. Rife with rangy and slender outside shooters—many of whom steered clear of the driving lanes—the manpower in the post was needed.
During an unpredictable
journey that landed him at Quinnipiac after a JUCO career, Jolley was groomed
as a cleanup man.
His job under then-Quinnipiac head coach Joe DeSantis was simple: Grab rebounds, get hustle points, feed the post, and attack the rim on one-on-ones. Having played point guard in high school and the wing in college, he worked tirelessly to become multi-layered."I was used to scoring before I arrived at QU," Jolley said. "I had to adjust to the role of what the coaches wanted me to do there."
With one of college basketball's leading scorers in then-senior Rob Monroe operating the offense, Quinnipiac needed Jolley to rebound, rebound, and rebound some more.
Monroe and Jolley, both from the D.C. area, helped morph their home city into a veritable Quinnipiac pipeline.
Legendary Quinnipiac scorer DeMario Anderson, Jeremy Baker, Evann Baker, Louis Brookins, and a host of others all played significant roles for the Bobcats following Jolley and Monroe's era.
Jolley was second in the conference in rebounding his junior season, pulling down eight boards per game.
During his senior year, Jolley's minutes dwindled. He played the 2005-2006 NEC campaign despite a torn anterior cruciate ligament. The Bobcats struggled mightily his junior season. During his senior year, however, they ended a three-year playoff drought.
Stepping up while starting center Victor Akinyanju (one of the few players in Northeast Conference history to score 20+ and grab 20+ rebounds in a game) was sidelined with injuries, Jolley came on late.
After Quinnipiac, Jolley did not want to conclude his career as a basketball player.
"I looked into a few other leagues in the states," stated Jolley.
He attended a Veterans Camp for Alex Wolff and the ABA's Vermont Frost Heaves in Burlington, Vt. While there, Jolley played against former Vermont big man and one-time NBA prospect Taylor Coppenrath.
"I played very well but I thought it would be more long term if I played out in Europe," Jolley said.
Now, following a well-traveled career, Jolley is engaged in his new challenge as a coach.
He's settled in at his new hardwood home in Colby, in the same conference where he was once a player at nearby Hutchinson Community.
We caught up with Jolley, who spoke about his career and his new gig.
ZS: How did you land at Colby?
KJ: I played at Hutchinson Community College, which was ranked Top-5 in the country for Division-I JUCOS with our current head coach. I kind of wanted to give basketball up. After doing personal and private work outs all summer in LA, I figured I'd found a new niche.
ZS: What's your role as an assistant?
KJ: I've been doing the same here one on one advance drills. I want to bring toughness that's always been within me.The team is looking good. We have a really good, blossoming player in Jeremiah Ingram from Detroit. He's a returning sophomore receiving interest from numerous schools in the SEC. We also have some size at the guard spot and some good looking freshmen.
ZS: Tell me about the summer in L.A., what was the experience like doing individual workouts and one-on-one training?
KJ: I worked with Kevin Durant, it was cool seeing him after a few years. I worked with his brother and cousin, training with them and getting them ready for a few European camps. While he worked with a few NBA trainers, we worked in a guy who has a replica of the Staples Center in his house.
ZS: Best game as a Pro?
KJ: Has to be first game, after leaving from Germany to play in Lebanon. I was known as a big scorer. I played in front of maybe 5,000 crazy fans and had my best game of the season, 42 points and 22 rebounds.
ZS: Favorite place to play over the pond?
KJ: Well, I loved the Middle East. Lebanon was my favorite place to play. It was the real thing. The food, basketball, women (laughs). They treated us like NBA players.
ZS: Toughest player you've ever guarded?
KJ: Man this would be a long list, considering everyone from the DMV area in the nba. Toughest guy was Deon Glover from Atlanta. He went to Georgia Tech and played for the hawks.. He played for the best team in Lebanon, I thought I had a chance (laughs). NO SIR... I did end up with 28 and 12 but nothing compares to his 56....Not all on me though (laughs).
ZS:How does your experience help you as a coach?
KJ: I've been around so many elite players and coaches. I've built many friendships and professional relationships in the process, which has converted me to a student of the game as they like to say. Even while playing, I devoted extra time to breaking down film, checking out scouting reports, and studying my opponent. I remember being in my dorm room, highlighting a player's strengths while reciting his weaknesses. At that point, I pretty much knew coaching could be in my future.

Barreled Shot Tower Gin
Shot Tower Gin with rye cask influence
Our barreled gin is a gorgeous addition to the lineup. We anticipated that barrel mellowness and rye spice would be fantastic complements to the Shot Tower Gin, and we nailed it. The Shot Tower Barreled Gin has fantastic rye spice on the nose and just the right amount of barrel decadence on the palate, and the time resting in the barrel really makes the 100 proof gin super approachable as a sipping spirit. If your bar or liquor store does not carry the Shot Tower – Barreled, then let them know you're looking for it!

Dungeness, Washington, US
|Usual Difficulty
|III-IV (for normal flows)
|3 Miles
|Avg. Gradient
|125 fpm
|800 - 2500 cfs
|104 cfs (too low)
SEASON: March through July during spring melt
High quality class 3+ creeking with incredible scenery through old-growth forest. In some years the river has considerable wood hazards requiring portages but in other years it is cleaner. Get a recent report or give yourself plenty of time to scout and portage if necessary. As Korb states, "it will seem like more than three miles."
The run includes a short canyon section and finishes off with a fun class IV rapid, "Mousetrap", that can be viewed by hiking up from the bottom. Once you reach the bridge you can take-out on river right or continue on downstream on the lower run which adds another couple hours.
LOGISTICS: From Highway 101 mile 267.4 take Palo Alto Road south through farmlands and into the foothills of the Olympics. This road is paved all the way and in 8.0 miles the road splits with FR 2860 heading off to the left and FR 2880 heading to the right and down to Dungeness Forks Campground. Follow FR 2880 1.0 miles down to the Dungeness River. You will come to a bridge just upstream of the Gray Wolf confluence at Dungeness Forks Campground (one of the nicer Forest Service campgrounds in the Olympics). The take-out is on river right upstream of the bridge or you can continue on downstream on the lower run.
To reach the put-in, you can no longer use the route described by Korb due to the fact that segment of FR 2860 that went along river right has been decommissioned. Instead continue upstream on river left from the take-out bridge on FR 2880 and then in about a mile turn left on FR 2870. Follow this headed up hill a couple miles to the junction with FR 2860 and turn left to head back down towards the river following the road a little over a mile to a trailhead and a gated road. From here it is less than a half a mile hike down the road to the put-in at the bridge across the river near the confluence with Gold Creek (if you head through the forest straight to the river from the trailhead, the river disappears into hidden gorge that is upstream of the segment described in Korb's guide). Be sure to check road conditions on the Olympic National Forest web site as roads can be snowed in during the winter (FR 2870 is on a bench high above the river at 2200' elevation).

The Internet Is Crazy About Matthew Dellavedova Memes Right Now (Pics)
Matthew Dellavedova was not drafted. The Cavaliers followed the Australian's career with the St. Mary's Gaels, and they liked him. Just not enough to use a draft pick on him. So they waited until the 2013 NBA Draft was over, then signed Delly as an undrafted free agent, giving him a two-year contract with $100,00 guaranteed.
At first they thought they'd wasted their money. Dellavedova was terrible in the summer league that year and terrible in the preseason. But the Cavs liked his hustle and work ethic, so they took a chance and gave him a roster spot.
On Sunday night, Dellavedova rewarded the Cavaliers for their faith with a shutdown defensive performance against NBA MVP Steph Curry. Then, on Tuesday night, Delly officially became the unlikely breakout star of the NBA Finals with a 20-point, five-rebound, four-assist performance.
Now Dellavedova isn't just some Australian with a reputation for playing dirty. He's a meme. And the internet loves him.

Hat Tip – [Bleacher Report]


text:
Imagine a tree that was planted close to the property line but entirely on one neighbor's property. As time passes, the trunk is going to become bigger. Eventually the trunk may grow so large that it extends partway over the property line. Now who owns it?
This question is a simple one, but it has caused the legal system some headaches. On the one hand, it seems as if the original owner would still own all of the tree. He didn't choose to give the tree to his neighbor, after all. He always intended it to be his, and it was unquestionably his – until it grew just a little too big. Can he lose ownership of a tree just because it grew? That seems strange. But on the other hand, the tree trunk is now partly on the neighbor's land. How can she not own the part of the tree that is on her own land, even if the original owner thinks the tree is completely his?
So the law has struggled with this situation, and different courts have reached different answers. Some courts have felt that any tree that crosses a boundary line is owned by both landowners, regardless of where it was originally planted or what the parties intended. Other courts have preferred to consider the two neighbors' understanding regarding the tree and how they have dealt with any past issues regarding its maintenance. This is a legal question where different jurisdictions have created different rules for themselves.
Example: Let's imagine two lots next to one another. One lot belongs to Cathy, and one lot belongs to Daniel. When Cathy bought her lot thirty years ago, she planted a small tree near the boundary line separating her lot from Daniel's lot. At that time, the tree trunk was entirely on Cathy's lot and so Cathy completely owned the tree.
But thirty years have passed and the tree has grown quite a bit. Now the tree trunk is partly on Daniel's property. Let's imagine that Cathy and Daniel go out and measure the trunk and do some math, and in the end they decide that 5% of the tree trunk is on Daniel's property and 95% is still on Cathy's property. So now who owns the tree?
(By the way, since this is a fictional example, it's easy to say that 5% of the trunk is on Daniel's lot and 95% is on Cathy's lot, and both Cathy and Daniel agree on this. In real life, it might be a lot harder to figure out exactly how much of the tree trunk is on each person's lot.)
On the one hand, you could say that Cathy is unjustly forcing Daniel to use some of his land for the benefit of her tree. On the other hand, you could say that they both own the tree, and treat the situation just as when a tree is deliberately planted on a boundary line to mark where it is. In that case, Cathy isn't unjustly forcing Daniel to give up some of his land for her tree – Daniel now owns the part of the tree that's on his land.
1. A tree is 100 years old and was originally planted on Fred's land, but the trunk has grown so that 10% of the trunk is now on Gayle's land and 90% on Fred's land. Who owns the tree?
Courts have treated this situation differently in different jurisdictions. In some jurisdictions, the court would probably decide that Fred owns all the tree because the trunk is mostly on his land and the tree was originally planted on his land. In other jurisdictions, the court might decide that Fred owns 10% of the tree and Gayle owns 90% of the tree.
2. This tree is 60 years old and was originally planted like this:
Now it looks like this:
Who owns the tree?
Courts have treated this situation differently in different jurisdictions. In some jurisdictions, the court would probably decide that Paula owns all the tree because the trunk is mostly on her land and the tree was originally planted on her land. However, in other jurisdictions, the court might decide that Quentin owns 10% of the tree and Paula owns 90% of the tree.

This is a rundown of what has been going on around here this week. We started off with Penny – our black New Zealand – having a spectacular 9 healthy kits Monday morning. Then Ellie May – our broken red New Zealand- followed with 6 lovely little reds. Boo – a Californian/New Zealand cross had a smaller litter coming in with 5. And last but not least, first-timer Princess Buttercup – a Satin – had a whopping 10! That's a count of 30 kits!
One of the best reasons to breed so many rabbits all at once is specifically in case of large litters. Rabbits will usually take on kits that are now their own as long as they are all relatively the same age/size. It worked out really well that Boo had only 5 because I was able to take a couple of the Satins and foster them to her. This way Princess Buttercup won't have such a demand for feeding and all the kits are more likely to survive.
Some rabbits do just fine with large litters – Penny is great with big litters and Ellie May had 11 her first time and also did well. But if there is an opportunity to foster some out to other mamas, I will do it.
This time around the weather is very warm so I'm now concerned that the kits don't get to hot. The mamas do a great job at uncovering them during the day and the babies also tend to spread out more. I just check a few times a day to make sure nobody is overheated.
Now we have a great selection to choose from for 4-H this year! Lots of color and pattern. The pink ones will actually turn white once their fur starts growing.
Here they are! (it's hard to take photos of baby rabbits – they move around alot)

Congratulations to Sweden winning the overall Gold medal at World Culinary Olympics 2012!
The International Culinary Exhibition, well-known to most as the "Culinary Olympics", was held in 1900 in Frankfurt for the first time. Since then the contest has been organized every four years.
This year in Erfurt chefs from 54 countries were put to the test of creating:
- A cold buffet-type table consisting of over 30 dishes and menus presented in a 12 square meters large table where a large sculpture in chocolate and/or sugar is the glorious centrepiece.
- A hot three-course meal that can feed 110 guests, cooked from scratch in the competition kitchen of six chefs and pastry chefs in 6, 5 hours.
I had the opportunity to try Team Sweden's three-course menu a couple of weeks ago. This is what it looked like.

Out of the Vaults: French Surrealism on Bastille Day
Past Event
Friday, 14 July 2017 - 5:30pm to 7pm
... this falsely triumphal and multicoloure
cortège is definitely nothing other than the
burial of a cadaverous and mummified age.
This quote from the 1925 Surrealist Manifesto illustrates how dark the world view had become for some French writers in the wake of the First World War. Join us for this special Bastille Day event where we will bring out rare surrealist and symbolist texts donated to the Library by Randolph Hughes. Curator Geoff Barker will discuss Hughes' life and the background to some of these texts.
Drinks and light refreshments included.

The Physiological Disposition of Diodoquin, Vioform, and Chiniofon in the Rabbit as Determined with RadioiodineMore LessSummary
Labeled diodoquin, vioform, and chiniofon were prepared using I131 and the distribution, absorption, and excretion of iodine determined after oral and intravenous administration to rabbits. Similar determinations were made with labeled potassium iodide for comparison. The route and rate of excretion of iodine was different for each of the 3 drugs as was the blood-iodine pictures and tissue distributions. The results also indicated that chiniofon was not present in the blood as such after oral administration, but as a metabolite, and that all of the compounds are degraded to some extent by the time they appear in the urine.
The Effectiveness of Bismuthoxy p-N-Glycolylar-Sanilate (Milibis®) in the Treatment of Intestinal Amebiasis 1More LessSummary and Conclusions
- 1. Ninety-four cases of chronic intestinal amebiasis were treated with Milibis® (bismuthoxy p-N-glycolylarsanilate (Wia, Win 1011)) and/or chiniofon, alone or in combination with bismuth subgallate. Sixteen of the patients who relapsed after the first courses of treatment were given a second course of treatment with Milibis®, bringing the total number of treatments to 106.
- 2. The patients who were freed of Endamoeba histolytica were followed up for an average period of 287 days (range 35 to 543 days, median 344 days). During this period of observation, an average of 10 post-treatment stool specimens per patient were examined.
- 3. In thirty-two cases chiniofon was used as the principal amebacide. It was used either alone, or with, or alternately with bismuth subgallate. Of the thirty-two cases thus treated fifteen (47 per cent) were cleared of their amebas, and seventeen (53 per cent) relapsed.
- 4. Milibis® alone, or in combination with chiniofon and/or bismuth subgallate was given to seventy-two persons; sixty-four (89 per cent) of these were immediately cleared of Endamoeba histolytica. Sixty-two (93 per cent) of sixty-seven cases in which chiniofon was not a complicating factor were cleared of E. histolytica for an average observation period of 320 days (median, 433 days).
- 5. Milibis® also affected other intestinal protozoa. Sixteen of eighteen cases (90 per cent) of Iodamoeba williamsi infections; twenty-three of forty-nine (47 per cent) cases of Endamoeba coli infections and twelve of twenty-nine (41 per cent) cases of Endolimax nana infections were cleared. Milibis® had very little effect on the flagellate Giardia lamblia, but it eliminated Chilomastix mesnili from the three cases observed.
- 6. The clinical efficacy of Milibis® in the treatment of chronic intestinal amebiasis was confirmed; all of six severe cases which had been resistant to other therapy were cleared with a single course of Milibis®.
- 7. Milibis® is easy to administer. Treatment does not require hospitalization or confinement to bed. None of the patients treated showed any toxic symptoms or manifestations of intolerance.
Trial of Enteric-Coated Camoquin in Intestinal Amebiasis 1,2More LessSummary
Enteric-coated Camoquin proved ineffectual in the treatment of intestinal amebiasis in 15 individuals; only 4 or 27 per cent were apparently cured even with total dosages as high as 11.4 Gm. The drug was equally ineffectual in treatment of the Trichomonas hominis that 8 of these patients harbored. Two-thirds of the patients had definite symptoms of toxicity with dizziness being the most pronounced and frequent complaint. As a result of these observations, enteric-coated Camoquin is not recommended for the treatment of intestinal amebiasis.
The Effect of Rice Powder on the Growth of Cultures of Endamoeba Histolytica 1More LessSummary
- 1. The effects of various amounts of rice powder were studied on the growth of 3 strains of E. histolytica cultured with a mixed bacterial flora.
- 2. The addition of rice flour increased the amount and duration of amebic growth.
- 3. The length of survival of the ameba cultures was directly related to the rice flour content of the medium.
- 4. There was an optimal amount of rice powder for the most abundant growth of amebae.
- 5. In cultures containing the largest amounts of rice powder, the lag phase of amebic growth was prolonged and there was a relative depression of the fold increase of the populations and in the rates of multiplication.
- 6. The addition of rice powder produced no gross changes in the bacterial flora growing with each strain.
- 7. Within 48 hours after inoculation, there was a fall in the pH of the cultures containing the largest amounts of rice.
- 8. Amebic growth accelerated the disintegration of rice particles into granules and the disappearance of the latter from the culture medium.
The Effect of X-ray upon the Growth and Infectivity of Endamoeba Histolytica 1,2More LessDiscussion and Summary
A brief study of the effect of X-ray treatment in vitro upon the culturability, reproduction and infectivity of Endamoeba histolytica was carried out. It was observed that single irradiations up to 120,000 roentgen units failed to kill or inactivate the organisms in Shaffer-Frye and Balamuth media. Exposure of the "streptobacillus" up to 120,000 r failed to produce any change in its ability to permit growth of amebae in S-F medium. Exposure of amebae in Balamuth culture up to 30,000 r did not seem to affect visibly the normal cycle of population growth. On the other hand, exposures to 60,000 and 120,000 r seemed to inhibit somewhat amebic population growth. Whether this was due to the fact that these doses were lethal for most of the amebae or whether they just prevented or slowed down reproduction is impossible to state on the basis of the evidence presented here. It is unlikely, however, that inhibition of growth was due to the action of X-ray on the accompanying bacterial flora, in view of the fact that amebic growth in the tubes that had been preconditioned with unexposed bacteria was also inhibited. No difference in population growth was observed in the groups that had been treated with neutral red and their controls. Viable amebae were observed for 16 transfers after irradiation with 120,000 roentgens. Injection of the progeny of the X-rayed amebae (120,000 r) into normal guinea pigs produced severe intestinal lesions like their unexposed controls.
A Simplified Casein Hydrolysate-Serum Medium for the Cultivation of Trichomonas Vaginalis 1More LessSummary
A casein hydrolysate-serum medium is described for the cultivation of Trichomonas vaginalis. This simplified medium is more easily manufactured, contains fewer constituents than a previously described formula and adequately supports the growth of trichomonads as shown in over 160 subcultures.
Laboratory Infection with Leishmania Donovani: A Case Report 1,2,3More LessSummary
- 1. A case of accidental infection caused by Leishmania donovani is presented. It is believed to be the only reported case of leishmaniasis due to Leishmania donovani originating in the United States and the only reported case of an accidental infection in a laboratory worker due to this parasite.
- 2. The disease was manifest by swelling of a finger and regional epitrochlear and axillary adenopathy. There was no evidence of systemic infection.
- 3. The diagnosis was made by detection of the parasite in fluid secured by aspiration biopsy; in impression smears of the excised lymph node and fixed tissue sections of the lymph node, and growth in culture of the tissue on NNN medium.
- 4. The patient responded satisfactorily to treatment with Stibanose, a pentavalent antimony preparation. He has been followed for one year and shows no evidence of relapse.
Observations on the Recession of Malaria in an Area of Southwestern GeorgiaMore LessSummary
Observations were made to detect malaria occurrence from April 1939 through 1948, in an area where the disease occurred formerly at a high rate. Transmission of vivax was negligible during the period of the study. A single epidemic of falciparum was apparently responsible for a majority of infections encountered. Treatment of positive cases with quinacrine hydrochloride may have been responsible for the rapid termination and limited extent of the epidemic.
Factors which prevent the recurrence of malaria in the study area are obscure. It is believed that improvement of economic conditions has enabled the population to apply, intentionally and indirectly, individual control, prophylactic, and curative measures.
A Heretofore Unreported Agglutinable Human Blood Factor and Its Possible Relationship to Blackwater Fever 1,2,3More LessSummary
It appears that a new human agglutinable blood factor has been demonstrated by the use of chimpanzee-immune serum developed in rabbits.
The presence in 97 per cent of all healthy white group O individuals and 97.4 per cent of all healthy group O negroes studied strongly suggested that it is not associated with the AB, MN, Rh-Hr, or P systems.
While we are not certain as to the usefulness of this factor it appears from previous work that its absence is intimately associated with the etiology of blackwater fever.
It is possible that this factor may explain the unaccounted for reactions following the transfusion of compatible bloods of both AB group and Rh type.
A Case of Canine Toxoplasmosis from the Canal ZoneMore LessSummary
- 1. A case of naturally occurring toxoplasmosis in the dog is reported. It is the first instance of canine toxoplasmosis reported from the Canal Zone.
- 2. Similarity of pathologic changes in human and animal toxoplasmosis is stressed. Calcific change due to parasitization of heart muscle is described.
- 3. The possibility of various methods of transmission of the disease from the dog to man is discussed.
Progress in the Treatment of Trachoma with Chloromycetin * (Chloramphenicol) †More Less
The introduction of sulfonamides in the treatment of trachoma (granular conjunctivitis) has resulted in bringing about an amelioration of the disease (1, 2, 3). In general, the treatment consists of the systemic use of the drug rather than local application to the eyes, the course of therapy lasting from ten days to two weeks, allowing a rest period, and then repeating the process once again. Improvement may be dramatic or gradual or, in some cases, requiring several months before the effects are noticeable. These studies have been confirmed experimentally in baboons infected with trachoma (4). Under carefully controlled conditions the sulfonamides have been generally successful for the treatment of this disease. The precise mechanism of how these agents act, whether as a structural analog of para-amino benzoic acid, and substituting for this necessary bacterial vitamin, is unknown with respect to trachoma. It must also be further noted that trachoma is a protean disease varying in its manifestation and degree of infectiousness.
A Note on Shigellae in Central AmericaMore Less
This is a brief report on the types of Shigellae encountered in patients with dysentery in two United Fruit Company hospitals in Central America during 1949–1950. No attempt has been made to determine the incidence of the disease or the percentages of the types present in these localities.
The isolation and identification of the Shigellae was accomplished by commonly used methods. Preferably, mucopurulent portions of the fecal specimens were streaked on plates of S S Agar and McConkey's Agar. The characteristic colonies were then further differentiated by inoculation into slants of Triple Sugar Iron Agar. The Proteus group was excluded by the use of Urea Broth. Organisms giving typical reactions on Triple Sugar Iron Agar were then identified by cultural and serologic methods. Commercial Shigella Anti Serum (Lederle) was used for serologic identification.
The following table shows the types of Shigellae that were isolated from cases of dysentery in Tela, Honduras, and in Quepos, Costa Rica.
Observations on the Experimental Transmission of Japanese Encephalitis by Mosquitoes 1More LessSummary
- 1. The results demonstrate that mice infected by the bite of Culex quinquefasciatus develop a sufficient concentration of virus in the blood to produce a transmissible infection in mosquitoes which feed upon them.
- 2. Mice 3–5 days old when infected developed blood titers which ranged from 3.6 to 5.2 while those 7–12 days old had titers of 2.8–3.8. The mosquitoes transmitted the virus when infected by blood having titers of 2.8, 3.2, 4.5, and 5.2, respectively. The titer is expressed as the exponent of the reciprocal of the LD50 dilution.
Japanese B Encephalitis: A Complete Review of Experience on Okinawa 1945–1949 1Summary
- 1. Complete data pertaining to studies on Japanese B encephalitis on Okinawa during the years 1945 through 1949 is presented.
- 2. The occurrence of the disease in natives is examined in the light of population trends and accuracy of diagnosis. A total of 401 cases, with a case fatality of 35 per cent, have been observed during these five years. During the same period twenty-one cases have occurred in Americans, with a case fatality of 28 per cent.
- 3. Laboratory aspects of the disease are presented with particular emphasis on time of development and persistence of antibodies. The role of "inapparent" infections is reviewed. Definite evidence is presented to validate the occurrence of such infections.
- 4. The serologic response to vaccination is demonstrated. The number of cases in vaccinated Americans is not sufficient to permit deductions as to the protective value. The response to recall vaccination is greater than the initial response. The use of vaccine with the subsequent recall serological response as a survey tool is outlined.
- 5. The serological pattern in various animals suggests that practically all mammals are or have been infected. Potential arthropod vectors are reviewed, and the thus-far futile efforts to prove vector are summated.
- 6. Areas for future study are delineated.
The Susceptibility of Howler Monkeys to Yellow Fever Virus 1More LessSummary
- 1. Two species of Brazilian howler monkeys were found to be highly susceptible to the Olímpio Cristo strain of yellow fever virus when transmitted by mosquito bite.
- 2. Four cyclic transmissions were obtained with A. scapularis and three with A. leucocelaenus.
- 3. The facility with which laboratory transmissions were obtained with A. scapularis suggests a possible explanation for the survival of virus in the winter months in south Brazil.
The Geographical Distribution of Immunity to Yellow Fever among the Primates of Brazil 1More LessSummary
- 1. A survey of natural immunity to yellow fever among the primates of Brazil has been going on for the past 15 years, more than 5,800 sera have been examined in all.
- 2. Sixty-five per cent were obtained from monkeys and 35 per cent from marmosets.
- 3. Immune primates have been found almost everywhere except in the seven states of the northeast, no extensive surveys having yet been carried out in that region.
- 4. The wide extent of specific immunity among primates captured in nature confirms the fact that jungle yellow fever has prevailed throughout most of Brazil during the past decade and a half.
A Study of the Concentration of Yellow Fever Virus which Will Infect Certain Species of Aedes Mosquitoes 1More LessSummary
- 1. A study was made of the concentration of virus which was necessary to infect certain species of Aedes mosquitoes with yellow fever.
- 2. The lowest titer at which transmission by bite occurred was 10-3.0.
- 3. Half or more than half of the mosquitoes, which fed on primates circulating yellow fever virus at titers of 10-5.0 or above, became infected after extrinsic incubation periods of at least 28 days at 28°C.
The Incidence of Human Intestinal Parasites in Northwestern Honduras 1More LessSummary
Results have been presented of a survey of single stool examinations of 5,000 persons in northwestern Honduras, and a comparison made with previous studies in Honduras. Three-fourths of all persons examied were revealed to have one or more species of intestinal parasites on such single examinations. The incidence of round-worm infection and of amebiasis is high.
Capillaria Hepatica: Report of Genuine and Spurious Cases 1,2More LessSummary
- (1). The second case of actual infection with Capillaria hepatica (producing death) is presented with a review of the literature.
- (2). A spurious infestation is also reported, the first for the continental United States and northern hemisphere.
- (3). Criteria for diagnosis are given.
Diabetes Mellitus and Pylephlebitic Abscess of the Liver Resulting from Schistosoma Mansoni Infestation 1More LessSummary and Conclusions
A case of Schistosoma mansoni infestation is reported which had two unusual complications, diabetes mellitus and acute pylephlebitic abscess of the liver. The findings in this case and a review of the literature suggest that glucose tolerance curves may discover the first complication to be more frequent than is believed, since usually only fasting blood sugar levels have been studied and involvement of the pancreas is frequently found in autopsy material. The complication of acute abscess of the liver apparently is unique.

When we moved in last year we gave Seb a pirate themed bedroom but he(and I) have become a bit bored of it recently. Because we rent, we're limited with what we can do to the house so we have to work with what we have.
The plan has always been to put the boys in a bedroom together once Alex is ready for a bed, and although I hope that won't be happening for a while yet I am already browsing for bits to create a room that will suit them both and that we can add things too rather then buying everything to match.
I don't want a theme, I like the idea of black and white with pops of colour. The room is cream with black carpets so I think it'll work well for us.
I have already ordered this Farg Form cloud lightshade, i've wanted one for ages and Phil managed to break the shade we currently have so I figured I would just get the one I wanted. It's huge and amazing.

Dwight Howard offers: Lakers denies trade rumorsBy Alex Jusi Madlangbayan on Jan 24, 2013 in Basketball, Sports •
Dwight Howard's offers from other NBA teams has been the recent rumor circulating, in and around the NBA.
Trade talks on Howard may have been due to the inconsistency in the game of the Los Angeles Lakers.
Sports analysts say that on paper, the Lakers team is considered as one of the top contenders for this season's championship.
However, the supposedly formidable Lakers is currently in 12th place in the Western Conference with a 17-24 (win-loss) record. They have lost their last three games and has only won five games on the road.
With the Lakers record heading south, questions are being raised if Howard is a fit for the LA.
Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak quickly shoot down the rumors of a Howard trade. Kupchak explained,
I don't think we're at the point where you say, 'It's time for a trade,' and a trade happens in three to four days. That's just not how this league works.
The Lakers denial of a trade offer may not yet be in the works, but a few losses may soon change their mind. Kobe Bryant's frustration may also force them to quickly come up with a decision.
Bryant expressed his disappointment after the Lakers lost to the Chicago Bulls on Tuesday night, January 22, 2013. According to Bryant,
Obviously, this isn't working … I've tried to go out of my way to get (Howard) the ball … I've constantly tried to help him out, tried to talk to him. Two o'clock in the morning, three o'clock in the morning. Texting him. Sharing reading materials. Anything to try and help him. He's coming off a major surgery in a market where it's just merciless; where there's demands and responsibilities of athletes. It's been tough on him.
Howard was acquired by LA in a four-team trade with Orlando, Philadelphia and Denver during the off-season.

HPV Vaccine Study Backfires in Canada
by Paul Fassa
(The Best Years in Life)
Canada's Concordia University
kinesiology professor Genevieve Rail was
awarded a grant of $270,000 to study the
effects of HPV vaccines on the public.
HPV stands for human papillomavirus,
which has suddenly became the root cause
of cervical cancer over the past couple
of decades.
The Rail-Lippman four-year study involved 170 parents of teenage girls who were given the HPV shots, which usually are administered sequentially in series of three. Rail has been the main recipient of pro-vaccine hysteria criticism, and she's not budging from what she knows to be true
"I'm sort of raising a red flag, out
of respect for what I've found in my own study, and for the despair of parents
who had totally perfect 12-year-olds who are now in their beds, too tired to go
to school," Rail said. "Yes, we're going against the grain, and we are going
against those who are believed, i.e. doctors and nurses and people in public

KANSAS CITY — The eastern black rhinoceros is a critically endangered species, but the Kansas City Zoo just keeps churning them out.
Or, rather, it is Luyisa who has been doing the work, having just produced her third healthy calf in 10 years.
"Everybody was very thrilled about it," said General Curator Liz Harmon, referring to the reaction of the zoo world and conservation experts to this birth, which occurred Oct. 18. "When it was born — and it was a girl — everybody was ecstatic."
First, any birth in a species that only has a few hundred left in the wild is a good thing. Second, there are more males than females in the captive population, so girls are celebrated. Third, the father in this case had never sired a calf before, so his genes are not overrepresented.
And fourth, Luyisa, the mom, was born in the wild, so her genes are a welcome infusion into the captive gene pool.
The latest addition in Kansas City has been named Layla. The zoo has not made a splash about her because she won't be on public display until the African section of the animal park reopens April 1, but The Kansas City Star got a sneak peak on Friday.
The Kansas City Zoo went to Africa to acquire Luyisa in 1997 in a trip chronicled by The Star. At the same time, the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo brought back a female of its own. She produced her fourth calf in August this year.
As a bonus, all seven offspring of those two animals have been female.
"It was good trip," Harmon said of that 1997 expedition. "It helped the population a lot."
On Friday the calf plodded around in the zoo's rhino barn, staying close to her mother and only a little wary of visitors.
Zookeeper Ellie Ray said the calf was expressing a personality, presenting her nose between the bars to be scratched and occasionally letting out a squeal. She is nursing and also eats roughage but no fruit yet.
She weighed 89 pounds when zoo staff gave her a neonatal exam one day after she was born. It took four keepers to hold her. Since then she has gained at least 50 pounds. She stands about 2 feet high at the shoulder. Her horn is barely a nub but is growing. Her feet are all toes. Big toes.
Kansas City now has five specimens of the eastern subspecies of black rhinos, which are distinct from white rhinos. Luyisa's first offpsring unfortunately died at age 8 while in transit to the Oregon Zoo in Portland. Her second one, Imara, is in Kansas City. The sire of those two calves, Rudy, also remains here, as does the new father, Tucker.
Adult rhinos are normally kept separated unless conservation officials decide it is appropriate to breed them. Luyisa and Tucker were introduced to each other for about a year before there were any sparks.
"When she would cycle, we'd get them together," Harmon said, "but he didn't have it figured out for a while."

- 388 DAVIS ON THE COLORADO RIVER PROBLEM Next, the Parker site should be improved to serve as a diversion dam for irrigation and municipal supply. With complete regulation at Boulder Canyon it will be a good power site. [Fig. 21. Distance in Miles from Gulf of California] A dam at Bulls Head will back the water to the base of Boulder Dam, and with the regulation of that dam, will constitute a good power site. This leaves three alternatives for the development of the power head above Boulder Canyon, between Bridge Canyon and the National Park Boundary, as follows: 1.—If on that future day it is decided that more storage is necessary, the Boulder Dam can be raised 120 feet, its gross capacity increased to 48,000,000 acre-ft., less the accumulated silt, and the water backed to Diamond Creek, where a dam would be built to back water to the National Park. 2.—If it is then definitely decided that no more storage will ever be needed a dam can be built at Bridge Canyon to back water to the Park Boundary.

Champions of the Pink Vaccine
Introducing ... Champions for the Pink Vaccine
By Dr. Kathleen Teresa Ruddy
To the best of my recollection, this is how it happened.
I read about the world's first preventive breast cancer vaccine, developed by Professor Vincent Tuohy of the Cleveland Clinic in 2010. I read his paper, published in "Nature Medicine" May 2010, and called his lab to introduce myself as Founder and President of the only breast cancer foundation whose mission is primary prevention of the disease - and, so, his vaccine was like a dream come true! I left a message with Tuohy's secretary and twenty minutes later, as I was grocery shopping, he called. We talked for over an hour.
Then Toni Turchi, a breast cancer survivor who lived in Cleveland, found out about Tuohy's vaccine and started a foundation to support his work. Tuohy told Toni to get in touch with me, which she did; we talked and became friends and colleagues.
Then Elyn Jacobs, a breast cancer survivor living in New York City, found me on the Internet, contacted me through Facebook, and we met in NYC to chat. She had never heard of the breast cancer virus or Tuohy's vaccine. And so we became friends and colleagues in the fight to change the tawdry race for the cure into something more substantial - primary prevention of the disease. Elyn introducted me to Janet Hanson, who invited me to join 85 Broads - which I happily did. Thank you Elyn and Janet, and all the wonderful, wonderful women I've met through 85 Broads.
Then Judy Fitzgerald got breast cancer. Shei's a retired teacher in Rhode Island. She learned about Tuohy's vaccine, contacted Tuohy to tell him she was going to help suppport his work, and he told her to get in touch with me. Judy and I became friends and colleagues in this enlarging grassroots movement to fund Tuohy's vaccine.
Then Elyn Jacobs invited me to join her on her weekly radio show two weeks ago, and Cindy Sullivan, a breast cancer survivor living in Colorado was listening in and went berserk when she learned of Tuohy's vaccine and the total lack of funding for it. Cindy got in touch with me and suggested that this small band of women supporting Tuohy's vaccine gather together on a Skype conference call to put our heads together to what would happen, which we did this past week. Thank you Cindy, that was brilliant. So obvious, but so brilliant.
And now, three days later, we have organized ourselves to support each other's individual efforts, but with the common goal - to see that Tuohy's vaccine gets funded. And here in the United States not in China.
We've got a brand: the Pink Vaccine. It's the world's first preventive breast cancer vaccine. It doesn't need reinventing as the National Breast Cancer Coalaition would like you to think. It already exists. It's in Cleveland. It just needs to be funded to see if it's safe in women; and if safe, whether it is effective.
We've chosen a name for our group: Champions for the Pink Vaccine.
We have a domain: pinkvaccine.com
We have a Pinterest site: The Pink Vaccine.
We've got groups on Facebook and LinkedIn: The Pink Vaccine.
And we're going to create a CPU for information about the Pink Vaccine: a blog where the Champions can post and share hard facts, dispel falacies, promote awareness, and generate ideas for how to fund the Pink Vaccine - the world's first preventive breast cancer vaccine.
Stay tuned. According to complexity theory, it only takes two individuals to move a crowd in any one direction. (Did you know that? It's true.) But we have five women who intend to move the crowd toward the Pink Vaccine. Think how fast we can move it now.
Please join us. We're going to have a blast; we already have. And we're going to do great things for the world, starting with funding the world's first preventive breast cancer vaccine.
Take a break from racing. Take a peek at us. Thanks!

Solutions to our problems often get started with a certain kind of conversation. Whether its revisiting the past, reflecting on the present, or talking about the future; compassionate dialogue actually gets things in motion. In contrast, repeating the same stories and patterns of thinking alone can further ingrain our suffering. A conversation together can lead to seeing and doing things differently and finding solutions that we just could not see on our own.
Desired change can happen without solving every single one of our problems. These small glimpses of hope and change can be uncovered and amplified to reach our goals and grow contentment.
In practicing a more balanced, non-judgmental and curious reflection upon ourselves and others, we can even spur a sense of personal well-being and happiness in our relationships. Combining mindfulness with ecotherapy, nutrition, and behavior change research; sets the stage for a counseling experience that breaks the stereotypical mold and becomes a meaningful and even enjoyable endeavor.
I work with adults and teenagers in Gig Harbor, Washington. I also have clients across the state of Washington using online video counseling.
