Pulmonary fibrosis is irreversible, permanent scarring of the lungs. Scarring can occur over time due to exposure to environmental hazards. Unfortunately, the fibrosis may not become manifest to the patient until it is too late. In such a scenario – as with most all severe lung conditions – the only option for the patient is a lung transplant.
Inhalation of various abrasives, metal dusts, asbestos, metal carbides (tungsten, titanium, or tantalum, for instance), coal dust, iron oxides, kaolin, fiberglass, styrene, ozone, phosgene, silica and talc are known to cause pulmonary fibrosis.
If a person has been diagnosed as having pulmonary fibrosis, or if they are having to undergo a lung transplant, they should have a lawyer investigate their case. If you need more information on this subject, contact Parker Miller at 800-898-2034 or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com.

This course in contract law will enable participants to understand what it means to be a party to a contract, when a legally binding agreement is deemed to have been created, and the key terms and conditions to be found in business contracts.

PETs targeted imaging may lead to early diagnosis of dementiaMarch 6th, 2008 - 2:51 pm ICT by admin
Washington, Mar 6 (ANI): Researchers have been able to classify different types of dementia with the help of positron emission tomography (PET) imaging with the radiotracer fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG), raising hopes that it may one day be possible to catch the disease in its earlier stage.
Dementia is a general term for a progressive brain dysfunction that results in the loss of memory and other intellectual abilities serious enough to interfere with daily life.
"Previously, scientists have been able to look only at the surface of the brain to differentiate various types of dementia," said Lisa Mosconi, Ph.D., assistant professor of psychiatry at the New York University School of Medicine.
"With FDG PET, we were able to develop standardized disease-specific patterns from which we could correctly classify dementia more than 94 percent of the time, she added.
The study which 548 subjects measured the cerebral metabolic rate of glucose (CMRglc), the amount of sugar the brain uses to fuel its activities, in various areas of the organ.
A decrease in this rate is indicative of a loss of nerve cells and of dysfunction associated with dementia. Because FDG behaves like glucose when injected into the body, its location in the PET scans pinpointed the specific area where glucose utilization had fallen below normal levels as compared to an age-appropriate control group.
"Each type of dementia examinedAlzheimer's disease (AD), frontotemporal dementia (FTD), and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB)affects a different area of the brain. Based on where in the brain this decrease occurred, we were able to determine which type of dementia a patient had," Mosconi said.
According to the researchers, the results suggest that the ability to detect differentiated uptake of glucose may result in earlier and more accurate diagnoses of MCI, an early stage of dementia known as mild cognitive impairment, and better disease management.
The study is published in the Journal of Nuclear Medicine. (ANI)

Recycled Red Ruler Chair
Believe it or not, there's quite a market for old-fashioned rulers out there (don't believe us? check out eBay) and artisan Dorothy Spencer clearly has been doing her research on it. She's collected enough of the elusive red ruler to put togther this nifty chair. That's right, it's not painted, it's made of hard-to-find colored measuring sticks, which bear their original color. We dig its throwback-, school-house style, though we might keep it hidden from our repressed Catholic school friends. $400 ::Uncommon Goods [by MO]

Raya was a Kryptonian assistant of Jor-El, and met Clark Kent when he was banished to the Phantom Zone by Zod. Thus far, she has only appeared in several episodes of the television series Smallville.
When Krypton was about to be destroyed, Jor-El sent Raya into the Phantom Zone while he and Lara tried to find a way to stop it, and gave her the House of El crystal to ward off the phantoms of the Phantom Zone.
After she saved Clark from the phantoms, Raya took him to her encampment where she interrogated him and discovered that he was Kal-El. She told Clark about Krypton and the Phantom Zone gateway. Before he left, Raya gave Clark the El Crystal to help him to stop Zod, and helped him escape the Phantom Zone while killing Nam-Ek. Unfortunately, Raya was left behind, and stabbed by Aethyr.
Sometime later, satellite images from Queen Industries showed that Raya had emerged from the Phantom Zone and landed somewhere in Australia. Later, she went to find Clark at the Kent Farm; they became close friends. Clark showed Raya Smallville, as they super-sped around the town, and she seemed genuinely impressed by Earth.
Raya explained the true reasons of Clark being on Earth and why he must continue his training with Jor-El. They were then confronted by the zoner Baern, who had possessed a human teenager named Lamar, and battled him. Raya told Clark that they had to retrieve the Kryptonian Black Box from Lex Luthor, otherwise Baern would become powerful enough to kill them both.
Clark took Raya to the Fortress of Solitude where they made attempts to fix it. Tragically, Raya was killed by Baern, after Clark finally found someone he could relate to the most. It is unknown what happened to Raya's body, but Clark most likely buried it in the snow.

Torah Bright is back on top! With smooth big airs and stylish technical tricks Torah nabbed her first Gold medal halfpipe finish since her 2010 Olympic win.
Kjersti Buaas used her veteran know-how to navigate the slopestyle course in blustery conditions and took home the silver medal.

Chapter 2 Summary
Surprise and Pomone go out to sea to practice gunnery. The crew on the Pomone are for the most part quite inexperienced and though they try to give a good showing, they are quite outclassed by the Surprise. Pomone is already reeling from the loss of her Captain, who is laid up with a broken leg and one of her officers who is dismissed from the service under the charges of sodomy, though he is found guilty of the lesser charge of undesirable conduct. Additionally, the Pomone is understaffed, the remedy hopefully coming shortly by the impressment of crew off some merchant vessels. The other vessels in the squadron are in various degrees of readiness, but none as bad off as the Pomone.

The Netherlands | 2012 | 15 minutes | Blu-ray | Dutch & Hebrew w/ English subtitles
Director: Susanne Engels
Bram, age 14, keeps it a secret at his secondary school that he is Jewish, because he's afraid he will get bullied because of it.

Cap or Kippah is about a child living in two worlds. In the one, he prefers to cover up the fact that he's Jewish, in the other he comes clean about it.
First Fagin, The
Australia | 2012 | 87 minutes | Digibeta | English
Directors: Alan Rosenthal and Helen Gaynor
When Charles Dickens created the character of Fagin in his novel, Oliver Twist, he gave birth to one of the most infamous rogues in English literature. Few people know that Dickens' portrait of Fagin drew inspiration from the life of the Jewish receiver and fencer of stolen goods, Ikey Solomon. Much has been written about Ikey's exploits: his amazing and daring prison escapes have captured people's imaginations through the generations.
THE FIRST FAGIN recreates Ikey's journey from London's dens of vice, Newgate jail, and the notorious prison "hulks" on the Thames to a daring escape to the new world of America. Ikey then tempted fate by sailing to Tasmania in search of his wife who had been transported as a convict. In Tasmania, Ikey began a long legal battle to defy the authorities of one of Australia's most severe convict settlements.
As a rare examination of the criminal sub-culture from which Dickens drew inspiration, and of the convict system in early colonial Australia, THE FIRST FAGIN seamlessly blends reconstructed dramatic sequences with historical documentary. It's a colourful and lively evocation of a turbulent period and a riveting account of the dramatic swings in Ikey Solomon's fate.
Hava Nagila (The Movie)
USA | 2012 | 73 minutes | Blu-ray | English
Director: Roberta Grossman
It is instantly recognizable – a musical shorthand for anything Jewish; a happy party tune that you dance to at weddings, bar mitzvahs and even at Major League Baseball games. It conjures up wistful smiles, memories of generations past… and no shortage of eye rolling. But the song is much more than a tale of Jewish kitsch and bad bar mitzvah fashions. It carries with it an entire constellation of history, values and hopes for the future. In its own believe-it-or-not way, Hava Nagila encapsulates the Jewish journey over the past 150 years. It also reveals the power of one song to express and sustain identity, to transmit lessons across generations and to bridge cultural divides and connect us all on a universal level.
Featuring interviews with Harry Belafonte, Connie Francis, Glen Campbell, Leonard Nimoy, Regina Spektor and more, HAVA NAGILA (THE MOVIE) is directed by Roberta Grossman (BLESSED IS THE MATCH: THE LIFE AND DEATH OF HANNAH SENESH, HKJFF '10 Audience Award Winner).
Igor and the Cranes' Journey

When Igor's mother decides for the both of them to move from Russia to Israel, he must learn to face many new challenges, just as the baby crane he observed hatching must soon set out on his first migration. This is the story of an 11-year old boy and a crane, both on a journey that will change them forever.
Special Mention, Haifa International Film Festival, 2012
In the Shadow (Ve Stinu)
Czech Republic/Slovakia/Poland | 2012 | 106 minutes | Blu-ray | Czech, Polish & German w/ English subtitles
Director: David Ondricek
Set in former Czechoslovakia amid dramatic events of the 1950s, IN THE SHADOW is a gripping crime narrative that ultimately intervenes in the fates of the characters and their loved ones. Captain Hakl is investigating a jewellery store heist. Thanks to behind-the-scenes scheming on the part of the secret police though, a run-of-the-mill burglary becomes a political affair. The aim is to divert attention from much more significant events that the communist dictatorship has underway for its people. On the orders of State Security, Hakl's investigation is taken over by Major Zenke, an East German police specialist, under whose leadership it is shown that the stolen gold was meant to support the Jewish community in "financing Zionist terrorism". But Hakl's experienced instincts as a criminologist are discovering an altogether different story, and he continues in the investigation on his own. Can one just man withstand a struggle with the well-connected network of the communist police? The adversary is powerful, and Hakl soon finds out he can believe nothing and no one. Hanging over everyone is a shadow of their past, of their weaknesses, that can make a culprit of a victim and a hero of a culprit.

It Is No Dream: The Life of Theodor Herzl
USA | 2012 | 97 minutes | DCP | English w/ Chinese subtitles
Director: Rick Trank
Theodor Herzl was an assimilated Jew, successful playwright and author. Born into a traditional but mostly non-religious family in Budapest in 1860, he was changed by the trial of Captain Alfred Dreyfus in Paris, which he covered as a journalist in 1895. Previously, he had advocated the mass conversion of Jews to Christianity as a solution to the growing anti-Semitism of Europe. However, after witnessing the court proceedings where Dreyfus was falsely convicted of treason and the anti-Jewish demonstrations of the French public, Herzl became convinced that the only answer to the anti-Semitism that was spreading across Europe was the establishment of a Jewish state in Palestine, the Biblical homeland of the Jewish people. He wrote a political treatise entitled "Der Judenstaat" or "The Jewish State" that became an international bestseller, laying out his ideas for creating a new Jewish state.
Narrated by Academy Award® winner Ben Kingsley and starring Academy Award® winner Christoph Waltz as the voice of Theodor Herzl. Co-written and produced by two-time Academy Award® winner Rabbi Marvin Hier and co-written, produced and directed by Academy Award® winner Richard Trank (UNLIKELY HEROES, HKJFF '04, and I HAVE NEVER FORGOTTEN YOU: THE LIFE AND LEGACY OF SIMON WIESENTHAL, HKJFF '07).

THE JEWISH CARDINAL tells the amazing true story of Jean-Marie Lustiger, the son of Polish-Jewish immigrants, who maintained his cultural identity as a Jew even after converting to Catholicism at a young age, and later joining the priesthood. Quickly rising within the ranks of the Church, Lustiger was appointed Archbishop of Paris by Pope Jean Paul II – and found a new platform to celebrate his dual identity as a Catholic Jew, earning him both friends and enemies from either group. When Carmelite nuns settle down to build a convent within the cursed walls of Auschwitz, Lustiger finds himself a mediator between the two communities – and may be forced at last to choose his side.

THE LAST SURVIVOR is an award winning, feature-length documentary film that presents the stories of four survivors and their struggle to make sense of tragedy by working to educate a new generation, inspire tolerance and spark a civic response to mass atrocity crimes. Following the lives of survivors of four different genocides and mass atrocities – the Holocaust, Rwanda, Darfur, and Congo – THE LAST SURVIVOR presents a unique opportunity to learn from the lessons and mistakes of our past in order to have a lasting social impact on how we act collectively in the face of similar issues which still exist today.

No Place On Earth
Germany/USA/UK | 2012 | 83 minutes | DCP | English w/ Chinese subtitles
Director: Janet Tobias
In 1942, 38 men, women and children slid down a cold, muddy hole in the ground, seeking refuge from the war above in a pitch-black underground world where no human had gone before. These five Ukrainian Jewish families created their own society where young men bravely ventured into the harrowing night to collect food, supplies and chop firewood. The girls and women never left; surviving underground longer than anyone in recorded history. Held together by an iron-willed matriarch, after 511 days, the cave dwellers, ages 2 to 76, emerged at war's end in tattered clothes, blinded by a sun some children forgot existed. Despite all odds, they had survived.
The remarkable true story of NO PLACE ON EARTH starts out as a mystery. While exploring some of the longest caves in the world in southwestern Ukraine in the 1990s, American caver Chris Nicola stumbled onto unusual objects – an antique ladies' shoe and comb, old buttons and an old world key. Was the vague rumor true, that some Jews had hid in this cave during WWII and if so, had any survived to tell their tale?
67 years later, Chris leads four of the survivors back to Ukraine to say thank you to "the cave."

For some, life is an adventure filled with opportunities to excel and places to explore. For Walter Himmelstein, a young man, endearingly known as Putzel, life literally doesn't go beyond his family's fish store and his community on the upper west side of Manhattan. In this heartwarming comedy, Walter's aspirations of taking over his uncle's smoked fish emporium are disrupted by the arrival of Sally, who becomes romantically involved with his about-to-retire and very-married uncle. While Walter tries to thwart their romance in order to ensure his taking over the business, he finds his circumscribed life thrown off kilter, and, after years of being undermined by his family and friends, he finally starts to realize his full potential. With Sally's help, Walter confronts his fears and proves he is more than a Putzel.

Director: Gabriel Ohayon

Israel | 2004 | 77 minutes | DVD | Hebrew, English & German w/ English subtitles
Director: Yaron Zilberman
WATERMARKS is the story of the champion women swimmers of the legendary Jewish sports club, Hakoah Vienna. Hakoah ("The Strength" in Hebrew) was founded in 1909 in response to the notorious Aryan Paragraph, which forbade Austrian sports clubs from accepting Jewish athletes. Its founders were eager to popularize sport among a community renowned for such great minds as Freud, Mahler and Zweig, but traditionally alien to physical recreation. Hakoah rapidly grew into one of Europe's biggest athletic clubs, while achieving astonishing success in many diverse sports. In the 1930s Hakoah's best-known triumphs came from its women swimmers, who dominated national competitions in Austria. After the Anschluss, in 1938, the Nazis shut down the club, but the swimmers all managed to flee the country before the war broke out, thanks to an escape operation initiated by Hakoah's functionaries. Sixty-five years later, director Yaron Zilberman meets the members of the swimming team in their homes around the world, and arranges for them to have a reunion in their old swimming pool in Vienna, a journey that evokes memories of youth, femininity, and strengthens lifelong bonds. Told by the swimmers, now in their eighties, WATERMARKS is about a group of young girls with a passion to be the best.

Wilt Chamberlain: Borscht Belt Bellhop
USA | 2013 | 8 minutes | Blu-ray | English
Directors: Caroline Laskow & Ian Rosenberg
In 1954, before his senior year of high school, Wilt Chamberlain took a summer job that would change his life. He worked as a bellhop at Kutsher's Country Club, a Jewish resort in the Catskill Mountains. By day he was making $2 an hour and getting great tips from the awestruck guests as he lifted their luggage through a second floor window while standing outside on the ground. At night, he played on the Kutsher's basketball team and was coached hard by the resort's athletic director, the soon-to-be legendary Red Auerbach. Mixing rarely-seen archival video and interviews with people who lived and worked with Wilt during that magical summer, this documentary short reveals an unexplored and pivotal chapter in the life of one of basketball's greatest players, and a fascinating glimpse of a time when a very different era of basketball met the Borscht Belt in its heyday.
World Is Funny, The (Haolam Mats'chik)
Israel | 2012 | 122 minutes | DCP | Hebrew w/ English subtitles
Director: Shemi Zarhin
THE WORLD IS FUNNY, Israel's box-office hit of 2012, nominated for a record 15 Israeli academy awards, is a complex allegory on Israeli society, far away from news headlines.
Aspiring writer Zafi has trouble composing endings to her stories. She uses her housecleaning jobs to find interesting tales. Among the accounts she collects and ties together is the story of estranged siblings.
The film is populated by over 50 characters, each trying to be the hero in his own story, each escaping from despair into the comfort and hope of their imaginations, and each wondering whether their tales are a reflection of reality, or perhaps reality itself is a story being told.

However, during the train ride Nono gets one last chance to prove himself… Together with master-burglar Felix Glick – an old acquaintance of his father – he stops the train and enters a world of disguises, chases, French chansons and Zohara, a mysterious woman whose secrets will change Nono's life forever.

Who we are and what we do…
Caring Hair registered Charity - Number: 1145258 England and Wales.
Cancer Hair Care is one of the services run by our charity Caring Hair. Our services are delivered to you with expert knowledge, care and sensitivity.
If you are one of our lovely patients we hope that this Cancer Hair Care website will help support you. The wonderful thing about a Website is that it allows information to be shared and made available for free in the privacy and comfort of your own home. We really care about your hair care and decided to start this Website in the hope that it is one small way of helping you to feel good about your new look.
…"When a 43 year old looks you in the eye and says "I feel terribly guilty because I have cancer and I'm more worried about losing my hair than having treatment", you suddenly realise that the information you can offer is potentially life changing advice.
As a hairdresser, and now the founder the charity Caring Hair I am so proud to provide the Cancer Hair Care service, to share the knowledge that I am so fortunate to have gained, means that I can give something back to the customers and hair industry that I love so much.
As well as running this free supportive information Website we do lots of other things, such as running 'Hair Care Support Units' and clinics in hospitals, we offer support and education to other charities such as 'Breast Cancer Care' who we provide advance training skills for their hair loss services. We provide special workshops for 'Teenage Cancer Trust' hospital units called 'Gigs and Wigs', we provide a huge number of free head scarves, wig services, new hair growth advice, cuts and colours and so on.

We are fortunate to have some wonderful support (and are always looking for more!). The range of people, caring companies, organisations and charities that support our Cancer Hair Care website and services deserve a big thank you. Further information about our charity.
Is to offer you professional, caring and helpful advice on a broad range of specialist cancer related hair care subjects. This way you will be well informed of what is available to you and where to go for help so that making decisions about your hair care is made a bit easier.
There are many caring experts who can offer you hair care services. Some of which you may be familiar with and others you probably never knew existed. We will also share the wisdom and experiences of others, who just like you, are coping with, and looking good, through hair loss despite cancer and their resulting treatment.
Hair loss, scalp care, wigs and headscarves can all seem a mystery. But with some caring advice, ideas for new looks, support with how you feel and practical advice – you will discover that looking good is not something you need to give up on.
When you experience illness and treatment, as well as changes to your hair, having to deal with it all can be overwhelming. That's why Caring Hair offer you this 'Cancer Hair Care' Website to help by offering you guidance on hair care issues. If your looking for support why not start by making yourself a cuppa and listening to other ladies experiences. Talking Heads TV.
As well as advice for cancer patients we endeavour to offer support to anyone who is concerned about hair care & appearance issues. We are currently creating a support website that will offer you free expert advice about a number of hair loss and appearance problems. Until that is created please contact a member of the Caring Hair team who will do their best to support you.

Web apps built with the traditional tools (HTML, JavaScript, CSS, etc.) are nothing more than a series of text files and thus not very secure. Once a hacker gets into a server, they can steal your code or modify it. One big advantage web apps built with Xojo have is that Xojo compiles your app to machine code so there's no code on your server to steal. Additionally, the overwhelming majority of hackers have no experience with machine code, so modifying your app to do something nefarious can be extraordinarily difficult.Comments closed
Month: June 2015
Over the course of the last year, there have been a huge number of changes to the Xojo compiler (just under 800 commits). We made large refactorings, like rewriting how unqualified name lookup works. We fixed around 35 bugs, some of them dating back years. We added major new features to the language, including 'Using', Iterators, and new data types. To top it all off, we shipped support for a completely new platform, iOS, and then met Apple's deadline for building 64-bit iOS apps.
And after all of that, we ended up with around eight regressions in the compiler. While not the perfect zero, I think this is just as impressive as the changes themselves.Comments closed
Last October, I wrote a blog post about how vulnerable Google is in its search business (the overwhelming source of its revenue). I realized this vulnerability after discovering that another search engine, DuckDuckGo, was started for less than $10 million, has equivalent search results, a clean looking interface and a low cost of switching. I've been using DuckDuckGo for over 8 months now, I didn't make the switch from Google for privacy reasons, I simply liked the cleaner interface, but I'll be honest and say that the privacy it offers is something I appreciate. Apparently, I'm among a growing group of savvy searchers.Comments closed

One of the things announced at WWDC last week (that was not announced in the WWDC Keynote) is that Apple has now combined the separate iOS and Mac Developer Programs into the single Apple Developer Program. So what does this mean for Xojo developers?Comments closed
I get a lot of questions about Xojo from students of all ages- from 10 year-olds to university students and others who want to learn to program- so I thought I'd gather all the resources Xojo has to offer for students.
Can I learn to code in Xojo for free? Yes!
Do you have free books on Xojo? Yes!
Can I ask Xojo my beginner questions? Yes!
The Xojo language is Object-Oriented, which is a great way to learn the fundamentals of computer programming. In addition to being cross-platform, Xojo is a Rapid Application Development tool, which makes it easy for you focus on developing your app rather than learning multiple languages.Comments closed
We've occasionally heard from Xojo users that their anti-virus software gives them a warning about Xojo. All of these have been false positives and we ask that you report these to your virus software makers if it happens to you.
Consider the following code:
dim i64 as Int64 = 1234567 dim i32 as int32 = 7654321 i32 = Int32(i64) // cast i64 = Int64(i32) // cast i32 = Ctype(i64, Int32) // convert i64 = Ctype(i32, Int64) // convert
It all seems reasonable enough. Not useful, but seems reasonable. Only one problem. It won't compile. Why not? The two casts to int32 and int64 will fail. Now why is that?Comments closed
Last week we kicked of the Xojo Wars community battle with a webinar describing what it is and the prizes you can win. Here's more information for those that could not attend or have not watched the recording.Comments closed

5:30pm: All is not lost for Melissa Bean in IL-8, but it might take a few days to know the final results in a district few people had on their list. (It's one of three districts I listed as "likely Democratic" in which the GOP is leading.) She has closed the gap to 550 votes and 9000 absentee ballots remain; an extrapolation based on the absentee ballots already counted suggest she could survive. Another Democrat who looked to be in rough shape but could pull it out is Jerry McNerney in CA-11; with all precincts reporting, he is ahead by a small 121 votes so that race will be decided by the remaining absentee ballots.
Things are a bit more clear in other remaining House races: CA-20 has yet to be called, but Democratic Rep. Costa is trailing by 2% so it's hard to see absentee ballots saving him. Rep. Grijalva has claimed victory in AZ-7. In AZ-8, Rep. Giffords is on top by 2000 votes but there are a lot of provisional ballots to be counted. In KY-6 and VA-11, Democrats Ben Chandler and Gerry Connolly are ahead by 600 votes and 1000 votes with all precincts reporting. And that leaves us with NY-25 and the Washington seats, where we're just waiting for additional counts.
4:30pm: Let's continue deciphering through the results. As I have already pointed out several times, the true site of the Democratic bloodbath is at the legislative level. Hundreds of Democratic seats flipped to Republicans, wiping off much of the party's bench in many states. In New Hampshire, the Senate went from 14-10 Democratic to 19-5 Republican; the Assembly went from 222-176 Democratic to 296-104 Republican - just staggering losses. In the Michigan House, a 23-seat Democratic advantage became a 13-seat Republican advantage. In the Iowa House, a 13-seat Democratic advantage became a 22-seat Republican advantage.
In the Texas House, which Democrats once had some hope of picking-up, they collapsed from 73 seats out of 150 to about 50. In the Montana House, a 50-50 tie has been transformed into a 40-seat Republican advantage. In North Carolina, Republicans not only seized both chambers for the first time in 120-years, but they did so very decisively! In the Tennessee House, a 2-seat Republican edge is now a 31-seat Republican edge. In the Michigan Senate, Republicans now hold 71% of seats; in the Ohio Senate, 69% of seats! And the list goes on, with staggering Democratic losses in places like Minnesota (which I already mentioned), Wisconsin, Alabama, Arkansas and Pennsylvania.
Here again, California bucked the trend; both chambers remained pretty much stable. Democrats also appear to have saved endangered majorities in the Nevada Senate, the Colorado Senate and both chambers of the Washington legislature.
Democrats can also point to strong results in other down-ballot races, none more important than Kamala Harris's apparent victory in the California Attorney General race. The San Francisco DA appears to have prevailed by about 15,000 votes (the race has yet to be called, but all precincts have reported). This means that California really was golden for Democrats in general, as they swept all statewide offices, but for progressives in particular. Eric Schneiderman clinched his victory last night, but he is another very bright spot for the left.
However, Richard Cordray and Dan Gelber's defeats in Ohio and Florida's Attorney General races are tough blows for Democrats; Cordray in particular had launched investigations into foreclosure fraud (he lost to former Senator Mike DeWine). Another victory for conservatives, this one in Iowa: They failed to get one of their own elected Attorney General in a fiercely contested race, but they managed to oust all three of Iowa Justices who were up for retention this year over their vote to legalize gay-marriage.
12:30pm: Dan Malloy will be the next Connecticut Governor, a comforting pick-up for Democrats who have been chasing this governorship since 1991! Malloy was the slight favorite through the fall but Foley mounted a late surge that nearly overtook the Stamford Mayor. Democrats will now have full control of state government, as they held on to their legislative majorities.
However, it's becoming increasingly clear just how brutal Election Day was for Democrats at the state level. No result is more shocking than Minnesota: Democrats had a 87-47 majority in the state House and a 46-21 majority in the state Senate. They lost control of both, in what amounts to an unbelievable bloodbath of incumbents. (And yet, Democrat Mark Dayton is clinging to a 9,000 vote lead in the Governor's race.) And it also looks like Democrats will lose control of the New York state Senate after all, which will be rough both in terms of state government and very importantly of redistricting. On the other hand, Democrats can look towards Hawaii, where they picked-up a state Senate to expand their majority to… 24-1!
11am: Good morning everyone! The dust is settling on last night's bloodbath, but Democrats just got an important call in Colorado: The Denver Post project Senator Michael Bennet has won re-election, yet another remarkable save for the party given how brutal things got down-ballot. This means that some of the Tea Party's most prized candidates (Sharron Angle, Ken Buck and Christine O'Donnell) went down last night; I doubt the GOP would have lost these races had these three candidates lost their primary. This leaves Washington as the sole Democratic-held seat left on the map, and at the moment Democrats look likely to prevail; that would leave the GOP at +6.
But on the gubernatorial front, the GOP just got one of their best results of the night: In what was one of Election Day's biggest prizes, the Florida governorship went to Rick Scott. Alex Sink substantially outperformed compared to nearly all other Democrats in her state, but FL just sung too far to the right this year - as early voting patterns had already predicted. However, Florida voters also deprived Republicans of their gerrymandering power, which should be huge in 2012: Amendments 5 and 6 both passed with more than 60%, so politicians will now be bound by tight rules in drawing new maps. Florida has some of the most gerrymandered maps in the country, so this should bode well for Democrats improving their current share of 6 House seats out of the state's 25…
Another gubernatorial pick-up the GOP just secured: Maine, which elected a staunch conservative in a 3-way race (Paul LePage). Democrats do have some good news to celebrate at the Governor's level, however: Peter Shumlin will be the next Governor of Vermont, while Mark Dayton and Pat Quinn are holding on in Minnesota and Illinois - the latter being one of the night's most stunning survivors. In Connecticut, Democrat Dan Malloy trailed all night but he has now taken a small lead over Tom Foley; that would be an important pick-up for the party. Oregon remains close.
At the House level, MI-9 has been called for Democrats, and I can't imagine AZ-7 and AZ-8 won't be called soon either. Rep. Gerry Connolly held on as the final VA-11 precincts were counted, but this could go to a recount; but Rep. Costa, who led when I went to bed last night, is now trailing in CA-20 by 700 votes. In CA-11, Rep. Jerry McNerney is ahead by 121 votes with all precincts counted; this should go to absentee ballots and probably a recount.
4:50am: This will be my final update for the night. And I don't need to tell you how brutal this was for Democrats: A House swing of about 60 seats was an unthinkable outcome just a year ago - and as I point out below it is still plausible that the final number approach the 70-seat mark for the GOP!
There are some silver-lining for House Democrats, starting with the fact that the biggest losers seem to be Blue Dog incumbents; also, the many House districts they had grown worried about that they saved (all the Massachusetts, Iowa and Maine districts). And Democrats looking for consolation would do best to look at the Senate, where Harry Reid's unlikely victory and Michael Bennet and Patty Murray's competitive showing means that the GOP might be held to a gain of 6 seats - a showing that is at the lower-end of what was the range of realistic outcomes. (Both CO and WA remain too close to call, however.) That said, Democrats will only control 52-53 Senate seats next year, a far tougher proposition than the 111th Congress's 59. And Joe Sestak and Alexi Giannoulias's close losses have to depress Democrats.
But it is at the local level that the GOP has the most to celebrate. Here, it really was a bloodbath. Just take a look at the Minnesota House: Democrats had a 87-47 majority going in, but Republicans seized control of the chamber! The same thing happened in Michigan's House. The GOP also has full control of the North Carolina legislature for the first time in 120 years; they picked-up both chambers of Wisconsin and New Hampshire's legislature. In Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana, they seized the state House to complement their already existing Senate majority. And contrary to what I wrote earlier, it does look like the GOP captured the narrowest of majorities in the New York Senate. This will mean Republicans will have a lot of latitude to implement policies at the state level, not to mention they'll have control over redistricting in a lot of states.
Also: Longtime Rep. Jim Oberstar has fallen in MN-8, so make that +59 for the GOP and another depressing loss for Democrats.
And one last comment: If Democrats had to pick just one state in which to do uncharacteristically well in (in fact, sweep most everything), they would probably have to choose California. And that's what has happened.
4:30am: A recap of what's left uncounted:
- Senate: Republicans stand at +6. Colorado and Washington are outstanding, and Democrats are at this hour optimistic they will hold both. That said, there is still a long way to go in Washington and Ken Buck is still 9000 votes ahead in Colorado - a margin Democrats are hopeful they can overcome since Denver and Boulder are underreporting. Alaska has also not been called, but Scott McAdams is out of the running so the race will remain in GOP hand; we might not know for weeks whether Lisa Murkowski or Joe Miller win the race.
- House: Republicans stand at +58. (I shouldn't have put KY-6 and IL-8 in the Democratic and GOP column, respectively, so I pulled them back.) The following House races are still uncalled: AZ-7, AZ-8, MI-9, VA-11, WA-9, NY-25, and KY-6 (where Democrats are currently ahead); IL-8 and MN-8 (where Republicans are currently ahead); and CA-11, CA-20 and WA-2, where things are pretty much tied. So we're talking about a wave that could still go as high as +70!
- Governor: Democrats holding on to an unlikely 9000-vote lead in Illinois and a more expected 9000-vote lead in Minnesota; they are also slightly ahead in Vermont. Republicans, meanwhile, remain ahead in Florida, Connecticut and Oregon. Each of these races could still turn around. Connecticut, for instance: Only 26% of New Haven and none of Bridgeport has reported, which could be enough for Dan Malloy to close the 11,000 vote gap.
4am: California is a bright spot for the left tonight. First, voters elected Democrats in all but one of the statewide races; that one race is the Attorney General contest, which is too close to call. Second, they rejected Proposition 23, which would have suspended the state's law aimed at battling global warming. Third, they passed Proposition 25, which allows the budget to be passed by a majority-vote rather than a 2/3rds-vote. This enhances the powers of state Democrats; and given that the party will also control the Governor's Mansion thanks to Jerry Brown's victory, this should change the tenor of California's fiscal debates over the next few years.
3:55am: Make it +59, as Rep. Walt Minnick has been defeated by Raul Labrador in ID-1. This is just a brutal district for Democrats, but Labrador had been almost entirely abandoned by Republicans so this has to be considered an upset victory for the GOP.
3:50am: Coleen Hanabusa has picked-up Hawaii's 1st District from GOP Rep. Charles Djou. This is Democrats' third-pick of the night (really, Dan Seals, really?). And that will be it for them, since CA-3 was just called for GOP Rep. Lungren despite Bera's surprisingly strong challenge. My count now leaves the GOP at +57 in the House, with 10 Dem-held districts still up in the air.
3:40am: Dan Malloy trails by 25,000 votes in Connecticut's gubernatorial race after a late surge by Republican Tom Foley that had been picked-up over the past week-end. His hope: Bridgeport hasn't reported anything, which will close the gap, but he will need more. Can he find it? The situation is similar in Florida, where Alex Sink still trails by 55,000 votes as state officials have apparently decided to stop counting for the night.
3:25am: Of the 11 important House races that have yet to be called. Democrats are at the moment slightly ahead in AZ-7, AZ-8, HI-1, MI-9, VA-11 and WA-9. Republicans are slightly ahead in ID-1 and MN-8. CA-11, CA-20 and WA-2 are just very very close at the moment.
3:25am: Ken Buck's lead has collapsed to 700 votes in Colorado, and there's still a long way to go. If Democrats pull off that race and also win Washington, where they're feeling confident, they'll have managed to hold their losses in the upper-chamber to just 6 seats - the lower-end of realistic outcomes. That would be a surprisingly good result given that the House landscape was far more brutal.
3:10am: By my count, Republicans have clinched 61 Democratic-held House seats at this point while losing 2, putting them at a net +58. Also by my count, the result in 11 races (one of them held by the GOP) remains up in the air: CA-11, CA-20, AZ-7, AZ-8, HI-1, ID-1, IL-8, MI-9, MN-8, VA-11, WA-2. (KY-6, CA-47, NY-25, WA-9 have not been called yet, but Democratic incumbents look like they've hang on.) That means the GOP's upper-limit at this point is a staggering +68! I might have forgotten districts, however.
2:50am: With all precincts reporting, Rep. Dina Titus is trailing by 2000 votes in NV-3, another tough loss for Democrats. The formidable Harry Reid machine was not enough to pull her across the finish-line… In better news for Democrats, Rep. Jim Matheson held on in UT-2 thanks to the late counting of the Salt Lake votes.
Also: I apologize for dropping the ball on keeping an overall look of the House, I will try to pull that together soon so we know where we stand more clearly.
2:40am: If this holds, it would be an important save for Democrats - one I am surprised they managed given how rough things got for New York's House incumbents: It appears that the New York state Senate will remain in Democratic hands, as both parties picked-up two seats. Two Democratic-held seats have yet to be called, but one has finished counting and the GOP would have to win both to secure control. For Democrats to take full control of state government would mean the ability to draw the new legislative and congressional maps, which would put freshmen Republican House members on the defensive.
2:30am: I admit I underestimated Pat Quinn's survival skills, as the Illinois Governor is hanging on by 8000 votes with 93% reporting. Two more very tight Democratic leads in Vermont and Minnesota. And a fourth gubernatorial race that has yet to be called is Florida, where Rick Scott has a 55,000 vote lead; but Democratic counties are underreporting. We've stuck at 89% reporting for at least an hour, however.
2:20am: Oregon joins Massachusetts in saving all of its vulnerable Democrats, with OR-5 the last to be called. The gubernatorial race is too close to call: Republican Dudley is leading 50-48, but Multnomah County (Portland) is underreporting.
2:15am: Rep. John Salazar goes down in CO-3. He had picked-up this red-leaning seat in 2004, another tough year for his party, so Democrats were hoping he could outperform yet again. Also in Colorado, Republicans captured a majority of the state House. And yet, Michael Bennet isn't out of it - far from it: The Senator trails by 9,000 votes with 80% of ballots reporting, but Boulder and Denver are both underreporting.
Democrats can still hope to hold the GOP at a relatively disappointing 6-seat Senate gain, but they'll have to win both Colorado and Washington.
2:10am: While we weren't looking, IN-2 was called for Rep. Joe Donnelly and NM-1 was called for Martin Heinrich, both important saves for Democrats. Also, Rep. Carnahan barely survived in MO-5; he wasn't expected to lose, but given how rough Missouri turned out to be for Democrats, they should be relieved he hang on. In ot
her races we were following early in the night, Rep. Chandler is hanging on by 600 votes in KY-6 (99% reporting) and Rep. Connolly is hanging on by 500 votes in VA-11 (99% reporting). Both races should go into overtime, with a fair amount of absentee ballots to be counted in VA-11.
2am: Note that New York Democrats are now saying that they will keep the New York Senate. I'll try to look at the race-by-race picture now; if true, it would be an important save for Democrats, who would be able to gerrymander the state map to take out some of the 5 Republicans who were just elected to the House tonight. Speaking of New York, Rep. Tom Bishop has been called the winner in NY-1; Rep. Dan Maffei appears like he'll survive in NY-25.
1:55am: If you thought the House was brutal for Democrats, the state legislatures are just a bloodbath. The GOP has seized control only of chambers that looked well within its reach (the Ohio House, the Indiana House and the Pennsylvania House, both chambers of the New Hampshire ), but also of chambers that looked like probable Democratic holds: the Michigan House, both chambers of the North Carolina legislature. The GOP will also control both chambers of the Wisconsin legislature, giving them full control of that's state government given Scott Walker's election to the Governor's Mansion.
1:50am: Here's a nice victory for Democrats: Neil Abercrombie will the next Hawaii Governor. In HI-1, Coleen Hanabusa has the early lead against GOP Rep. Charles Djou in what would be just the third pick-up for Democrats (oh Dan Seals…)
1:40am: Who knew places like Georgia and North Carolina would be so much more kind to Democrats than New York or Pennsylvania? I just noticed that Rep. Bishop has pulled ahead by 2% in GA-2 after trailing for much of the night; Rep. Barrow defended GA-12. That means conservative Rep. Marshall is the night's only Georgia loser - that's one loss Democrats can live with. But the GOP can smile in the gubernatorial race. While it was clear Nathan Deal was the favored going into Election Day, it looked like he might miss the 50% threshold to avoid a runoff; he easily cleared it, and he will be the next Georgia Governor. Democrats once were hopeful about this race.
1:25am: Democrats have now lost two seats in Arizona, with Rep. Mitchell losing re-election in AZ-5. However, Democrats are holding on to narrow leads in AZ-7 and AZ-8, which would both be important saves for the party; the night isn't over there, however. And Democrats can also be relieved for having saved CA-18… though a lot of California races remain on the table: CA-20, CA-11 and CA-47.
1:20am: Democrats are holding on to small leads in Minnesota and Vermont's gubernatorial races. But a lot of ballots remain to be counted, and Mark Dayton's Minnesota lead seems particularly tenuous to me as GOP-leaning districts seem to have undercounted their votes. Florida also remains on the table, as Alex Sink has narrowed Rick Scott's lead to less than 60,000 votes.
1:10am: Rep. Bill Owens saves his seat in NY-23, even though Rep. Scott Murphy loses in NY-20. I would have expected it to be the other way around. I believe this means that the GOP has netted five seats in NY so far (NY-13, NY-19, NY-20, NY-24, NY-29), and they are still in the hunt in NY-1 and NY-25. Democratic incumbents are narrowly in the lead in both. And in IL-8, Rep. Melissa Bean now trails by just 700 votes; the remaining precincts are in Democratic-leaning territory, but there just aren't a lot left.
1am: Rep. Stephanie Herseth-Sandlin loses re-election to Kristi Noem in SD-AL, which is among the most important results of the night. The race had long looked like a toss-up, and Democrats will have to move quickly to find out who they'll be able to run for Senate in 2014 when Tim Johnson probably retires. Republicans have also picked-up open WV-1 , though Democrats should not too sad about this race since their nominee Oliverio had shown signs that he would consider a party switch.
11:55am: Rep. Steve Kagen has fallen in WI-8 and the GOP picked-up the open WI-7 - these two were expected. But here are a Democratic incumbents who survived tough battles and can go on to fight another day: Rep. Ron Kind in WI-3, Rep. Peterson in MN-3, Rep. Peter DeFazio in OR-4, Rep. David Wu in OR-1, Rep. Carolyn McCarthy in NY-4.
11:50am: Reps. Bobby Bright and Mike McMahon lose AL-02 and NY-13, respectively, in what continues to be an unthinkably large GOP tsunami. Note that with Bright's loss, the Blue Dog Caucus's most conservative wing has really been decimated; Marshall, Bright, Taylor, Boyd… Who remains besides Dan Boren? In other dismal news for Republicans, Ken Buck has taken a 3% lead in Colorado's Senate race.
11:47am: Republicans pick-up AZ-1, MI-7 and open NH-02. The latter two races had looked like they were trending Democrats' way in recent weeks. Democrats are catching very few breaks at the House level, and most of what had looked like toss-ups is going against them.
11:40am: Harry Reid's victory has been confirmed by the AP and NBC News. It is truly incredible that an incumbent so unpopular was able to win re-election in what has to be one of the most atrocious nights for his party in modern history. And speaking of Democratic survivors, longest-serving congressman Rep. Dingell managed to pull himself across the finish-line in MI-15 and Martin Heinrich is holding on in NM-1.
11:32am: Democrats are scoring victories here and there, but overall it's hard to know which disaster to highlight. Rep. Melissa Bean is trailing in IL-8; Rep. Solomon Ortiz is trailing in TX-27; Rep. Grijalva is in a tight race in AZ-7. We really shouldn't be talking about any of these races.
11:30am: Fox calls Harry Reid the victor in Nevada's Senate race. Wow. Just wow. If this holds, what a save by the Majority Leader. If I had told you a year ago that Democrats would have an atrocious Election Day, who would have imagined Reid would be among the survivors? If Fox's call holds, this would be as important a save as any for Democrats.
11:25am: Dan Seals has lost IL-10 for the third time in a row. Remind me again why Democrats thought it'd be a good idea to nominate him again? This was as winnable a seat as any Democrats had this year, just brutal that they lost it. Even more brutal: Rep. Melissa Bean is now trailing in IL-8. I had left this race on my chart as "likely Democratic," and it would be a big big upset.
11:25am: Illinois's Senate seat has been called for Republican Mark Kirk, yet another brutal loss for Democrats. Republicans have now captured 6 Democratic seats, and all eyes turn to Nevada, Colorado and Washington. While Democratic incumbents are leading in all three at the moment, the same was true in Illinois and Pennsylvania just a few hours ago. This is really a big loss for the party; Joe Sestak might have been the clear underdog, but Democrats had hope Giannoulias would prevail due to Illinois's clear Democratic leanings.
12:20am: Due to bizarre technical issues, I am no longer able to update my original results thread - so I have moved the party here.

LG Shows All Its New Phones Together at MWC
LG really hadn't left us with any us with anything to be surprised by at the MWC this year; over the last couple weeks, we've heard it model-by-model reveal pretty much everything it was intending to show at the Mobile World Congress in advance. The F series were the last holdouts, but even they've gone official. Now LG is rounding everything all up and showing off its full new lineup.
The F series includes the Optimus F3 and F5, both mid-rangers, but with some decent specs, especially for the F7. The L series II has three phones in it, the Optimus L3 II, L5 II, and L7 II; these are all lower-end models, and unlike the Fs will be 3G-only.
LG is including the Vu series in this list, but there's nothing new there, only the original Optimus Vu and the more recent Vu 2.
The G series gets last years Optimus G as well as the just-announced Optimus G Pro, the company's first 1080p handset. Clearly, these are the most exciting of the bunch, though with the Optimus G II already on the horizon, their time is already ticking down.
And of course, this being LG, it's recruited a bevy of beauties to show off all these smartphones. Check them out (the phones, we mean) in the gallery below:

The Top 75: LehmanMillet
"Everyone saved their way to improved margins, especially in first half of 2009," Lehman adds. "We saw that across our entire client base."Long recognized for its device and diagnostics expertise, the agency broadened its positioning last year, as Lehman notes 40% revenue now comes from products that aren't viewed as traditional device or diagnostic products. "The theme over the years has been working with companies that are bringing products to market that change the standard of care," explains Lehman. "It's woven into the fabric of the agency. Sticking a stake in the ground as a device and diagnostics agency…narrowed our focus, and it was liberating because it helped provide guidance of when to say no and yes. I've found the same to be true by asserting the standard of care changing positioning. When we speak with prospective clients and clients it resonates. There are a unique set of challenges to bringing a product to market where rules are still being written."
The agency landed an impressive 13 wins in 2009, including Myriad Genetics' BRACAnalysis; Biodesix's VeriStrat (multi-array assay for lung cancer); Focus Diagnostics' Simplexa (a PCR-based instrument system); LipoScience's LipoProfile (cholesterol markers); and Breathe Technologies (corporate work and initial brand development on a COPD ventilator).Existing clients awarding new business included Abbott Diagnostics (launch of a global portfolio campaign); Genzyme Bioscience (Carticel); and Aspect Medical Systems (BIS monitor). Launch assignments came in from Sagent Pharmaceuticals AneClear (anesthesiology device); Edwards Lifesciences (critical care product line); and Kinetic Concepts (AOR for next-generation wound care systems). Other new business included Dune Medical Devices (premarket work on Margin-Probe) and NeoMatrix (social media engagement for Halo Breast Pap Test). And, Zimmer Dental awarded global corporate positioning, a product launch and AOR status for its dental implant portfolio.
Headcount held steady at 70. About six positions are open currently (in both Boston and Irvine). Lehman reports "a small number" of layoffs in 2009 necessitated by client spend fluctuation. Head of corporate strategy Stacy Howmann departed last fall and was replaced with account planners."It's a matter of having the right mix of skill set against incoming work," Lehman says. "Traditional production was replaced by digital production. More true classical account planning talent was hired to replace more traditional strategy. We have strategic expertise within the executive team. Account planners look at street level and through the eyes…of client customers."
Digital expertise is fully integrated, and it's the fastest growing service area. Lehman says the approach is "strategically oriented" and aimed at driving adoption. "You start with strategy and positioning, then you look the most effective channels to execute," he adds. "Digital is omnipresent and ubiquitous. We need to be on top of it more than ever before."Revenue is up this year. The agency has already won a new account—Spectrum Pharmaceuticals' Zevalin, the first radioimmunotherapy treatment to be approved as part of first-line therapy for follicular NHL.
"Current clients are bullish, and there's new business in pipeline too," Lehman says. "I'm cautiously optimistic that 2010 is going to be very solid, and I expect it to be ahead of 2009."

Dystopian Elements Overview
Lesson 4 of 13
Objective: SWBAT determine themes of dystopian literature and analyze how these themes are developed by participating in class discussion.
Big Idea: As we prepare for our first official text-based discussion on our dystopian novels, we will take note of the common elements for this genre.
We will start class with our typical ten minutes of reading time. I will read with the students during this time.
In preparation for our first book club meetings tomorrow, I will allow students 25 minutes of individual work time to prepare their roles. Each role requires students to gather three significant quotes from the assigned reading and then analyze them according to the perspective they are assigned for that day's discussion. The roles/requirements are:
- Team Leader: Guides discussions by creating prompting questions based on three significant quotes/passages from assigned reading (SL.9-10.1c).
- Allusionator: Find three quotes/passages that represent allusions to history, art, literature, etc and provides analysis for each. (L.9-10.5)
- Style Monster: Finds three quotes/passages that represent stylistic elements (plot structure, figurative language, etc.) and analyzes how these choices impact the book. (RL.9-10.4 and L.9-10.3)
- Character Stalker: Finds three quotes/passages that represent character development and analyzes how characters interact with each other and with the plot (RL.9-10.3).
- Minister of Propaganda: Finds three quotes/passages that represent the mind-control/rhetorical strategies employed within the novel and creates an artistic representation of their analysis. (RI.9-10.6)
These roles are critical for many reasons. In addition to being assessed on their ability to read their novel for comprehension, students need to be independently responsible (and held accountable) for their reading and their ability to meet the various standards that are assessed over the course of this unit. Because of this, when my teammates and I worked to create the structure for the book club, we made sure that we knew which standards we wanted to measure and made sure that there was a unique role that each student would have a chance to fulfill to demonstrate their mastery. By giving them the opportunity to do a different role each time, I also hope that they will be able to engage with the book from a variety of perspectives, which will help them to have a deeper understanding of the novel as a whole.
While students work, I will wander to answer questions about their duties or their novels.

Dystopian Elements Overview
For the last chunk of class, I will spend some time doing a little direct instruction through whole class discussion (SL.9-10.1) about larger themes/motifs/stylistic elements of dystopian fiction. I want students to be able to recognize their books as the grand-daddy novels of the modern dystopian craze and am also going to ask them to analyze their novels for these elements as a part of their group discussions moving forward.
I will provide them with a note-catcher and briefly introduce each element orally. I will ask students to help me come up with examples from modern movies and books as well as examples from their own novels as I share these elements and they take notes.
Resources (3)
Wrap Up and Next Steps
I will hopefully have a few minutes left at the end of class to remind students about their required reading and work for tomorrow's book club meetings, but we'll see. I have a feeling today is going to be busy and that I won't have much time for wrap up before we have to boogie on to other learning opportunities.
