I celebrate myself, and sing myself.
A young guy comes in to our clinic with some complaints of who-knows-the-fuck-what (I'm a pathologist, do you actually think I know the patient's history? Please.). Anyhoo, he gets a needle biopsy of a retroperitoneal mass they find on a CT scan. The case is assigned to one of our pathologists - a smart and experienced fellow from the old country. He's not sure what it is and he shows the case around to several other pathologists who are stumped and ultimately the case is sent to an outside, nationally recognized "expert" for an opinion. So, the case is stained-up the wazoo (we have certain markers called immunohistochemical stains that will highlight specific cell types – aiding in classification of tumor type) and shown to everyone on Earth who knows anything about pathology (I've told myself one million times: do not exaggerate!). Well, no one has a good idea of what it is but several theories / guesses are floated, "clinical history" is sought from clinicians, conferences ensue and the entire world is wallowing in a morass of self-doubt and hopelessness.
Enter: me.
I was out the day the case came into the department and had not seen the slides. On their return from the "experts", my colleague brings the case to me and puts a slide under the microscope. I glance briefly at the thinly-cut section stained pink and blue by hematoxalin and eosin. I think for a yoctosecond and declare triumphantly: "Has anyone fondled this guys nuts?". Blank stares. Slowly, looks of understanding. And then, finally, awe. "It's a metastatic seminoma. Go check out this guys balls."
Another mystery solved; another life saved. "Great men are meteors that burn so that the earth may be lighted." -Napoleon.

Great job and kudos to you!ReplyDelete
I can only hope that if I'm ever really ill, you'll be the one ordering people to fondle my balls.
Wait, that didn't come out quite right....
i must admit, you always were good at visual recognition, pedantry, and pederasty. you would have made a good dermatologist or pornographer. really, great job.ReplyDelete

Yet another validation that physical examination is a dying art. Medical students these days can't tell an S4 gallop from their sister's tit.ReplyDelete
My father recently suffered a massive stroke. Five minutes after I reached his bedside, I knew where it was, how big it was, that it had ruptured into the ventricles and that he wouldn't survive. All by doing an exam. The CT simply confirmed what I already knew.
etotheipi, walt whitman right? wasn't he gay?ReplyDelete
cholerajoe, you are correct, but i would add this thought. in the ER we too can make snap diagnoses based on exam, clinical intuition, and vital signs etc... only one of my six surgeons will operate based on clinical presentation and exam.
regarding acute neurological emergencies, no one will do anything without a scan.
i'm sorry about your mother, it sounds like the die was cast prior to her arrival at the hospital, but you are correct to note that the physical exam has been killed by technology.
i believe that, if one could get out from under federal mandates and JCAHO requirements that for most patients, we could deliver fine care for much less. it's an idea that i am working on, but one miss and you're sunk.
Great save, proving once again that you truely are the penis (and accessories) expert. But shouldn't you have personally fondled the balls in question?
Nice job, E..ReplyDelete
But, really, why do med students even buy stethoscopes anymore?A couple years ago the CT went down for a whole weekend and we only had 1 at the time. I'm the oldest guy by far in the group, and the young 'uns were in "status" They started ordering MRI's on all the belly's and heads and shit..They were petrified that they had to use clinical judgement and not have a way to objectively reassure themselves..(did get us our own scanner in the dept!)
It was kinda funny..
CT scans had just been invented when I started this gig and back then you had to get approval from somebody to even order one!!!
Maybe I'll go play with my balls now...

My UCSF 4-year fellowship in Pathological Conditions of the Nutsack and Related Structres paid off!ReplyDelete
yes 911, whitman is correct. and yes, he was wicked gay. As for career choices, pornographer would have been a good one. Either behind the camera or as 'stunt cock'.
I agree with all the sturm und drang about the loss of physical exam skills, although in this case I can't blame the clinicians for being retards (which I love to do) - the nut mass was only seen with ultrasound and was almost completely scarred / regressed. Although I did personally transilluminate his junk just for kicks.
just diagnsosed a saccular AAA with extension into the common illiacs with my stethoscope and palpation....ReplyDelete
just kidding, CT baby!
Oldfart. TMI. if, however, you insist on playing with them it is better if you involve a female partner skilled in the arts of testicular stimulation, or a dude, or whatever you choose. you texas guys do a lot of stuff that people don't understand and i'm not judging, haven't judged since the plight of the gay cowboy was so wonderfully portrayed in 'brokeback'. wow, what a movie.ReplyDelete

um.. balls. Good thing you could 'e'!
Funny 911, I always thought you were a Texan.ReplyDelete
Etoheipi (WTF does that mean anyway?) good job!
Great save, but every since I have known you, your response to any problem or question has been "has anyone touched his balls?", so it makes it a little less impressive.ReplyDelete
Your sponsored merchant is "Rare Jewels," Walt.ReplyDelete
That's "e to the i * pi" - see wikipedia for "Euler's Identity" - which may, or may not, be some kind of clue to a real name.ReplyDelete
If you think Euler's identity is hard, try to follow the shrodinger's cat quantum theory stuff.ReplyDelete
If you understand it, I want to date you. Just don't try to kill my cat with a geiger-counter, an alpha particle, and a flask of prussic acid.
First, yes I realize I spelled my owner's name without a "c" in it, but hey, I'm a cat. Also I don't know how to write an umlaut. But as for the theory, it's rather simple.ReplyDelete

Perhaps Cat and Etotheipi could just rub their genius on you...ReplyDelete
You do know that that's going to be misconstrued as a sexual innuendo!
Thanks for the explanation about etotheipi!
*gasp* No!!!ReplyDelete
If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants..?ReplyDelete
Do Etotheipi and Shrodinger's Cat charge to rub their genius on me? Or is it a free service?ReplyDelete
And does their genius grow if they rub it on me? Because if it does, then I should be the one charging!
Thanks for the link; always glad to have more links to the Gospel of Shroom ;)ReplyDelete
EM training in the UK is changing; it used to be a 4 -5 year specialist programme, after any basic training programme (Med., Surg., Anesthetics etc)
Now, I think, it's a 2 year "Common" Acute Stem prog, then a 4- 6 year specialist programme... i think.
Did that make any sense..?
kinda makes sense. are you meaning 4-6 years from the beginning of medical school to completion OR 4-6 years of residency training after medical school? i know our systems are a bit different. glad to have you on our roll and stop by anytime!ReplyDelete
- Anonymous1:49 PM, November 23, 2007
If all else fail, examine the patient.ReplyDelete
(Napoleon's adage can be augmented by Monty Python's "shining out like a shaft of gold when all around is dark.")
4-6 after med school; so total training to be a consultant (which I guess is the equivalent of an attending) would be about 9 years; for some of us oldies it was longer... we dithered a bit more; I'll be about 12 years in when I'm done.ReplyDelete
And as for botulism, yes, we really use mice. They used to phone us daily on the unit to advise on the health of the test mice...
Hey 911---I left you a very special message/challenge on this thread here and it's not a meme....ReplyDelete
I'm still not quite sure how things equivalate UK vs US, but yours sounds shorter...ReplyDelete
I did 6 years med school, albeit straight out of school, then a year as a house officer (?intern), about 5 years as an SHO (?resident) then anothe 5 as a Registrar (?Senior resident) then... I will be elligible for a consultant post (?attending)... so 6 yers pre grad training, and 11-12 post grad; however i think we work shorter hours. Welll, we for damn sure do now, but even when I was a wee laddie, I'm not sure we ever put in the same number. (Tho my old man, who did some time at the Mayo clinic in the 70s had a few tales to tell about what constituted "busy" for the US knifemen. They in turn laughed at his salary...)
y,y,y I started medschool right out of high school, so at age 18. Even so, That's six years before I qualified, vs your 8, but I still racked up 12 'training' years after graduating. Although, with new training, I'd be doing a comparable no of years. This is not a good thing for the NHS; one estimate is that surgeons of 'yesteryear' did 40,000 HOURS of training, and todays will do 10,000. So your doctor will be young,fresh but inexperienced, as opposed to older, tired and knowing his arse from his elbow... your choice...ReplyDelete
I had a post related to the physical exam that doctors may or may not perform. My long winded opinion, such as it is, is posted on my website. I'd be interested in hearing what you all have to say. Especially you Etot.....the creature that secretly makes me wet.......with tears!ReplyDelete
- Anonymous9:47 AM, November 26, 2007
If it was metastatic seminoma, it's quite possible the patient won't survive, even with your amazing powers of detection. So I would say it's a little premature to be congratulating yourself on saving a life.ReplyDelete
Sorry to burst your bubble. :(

Història artística
The artistic history of the Liceu mirrors the history of opera in the Western World. Initially opera occupied a relatively small place on the bill, alongside numerous plays, concerts and variety shows. Later, however, the Liceu gradually evolved into a prestigious opera house. The first opera to be staged there – Donizetti's Anna Bolena – was a sign of the taste for bel canto and contemporary Italian Romantic drama, including works by Rossini, Donizetti, Bellini, Verdi and others which have remained in the repertoire ever since (Verdi is the most frequently staged composer). French opera was also popular, both the now-forgotten composers of grand opera (Auber, Meyerbeer and Halévy) and later French composers (such as Gounod, Bizet, Massenet and Saint-Saëns), whose works are still performed.
Leading operatic composers at the Liceu
The first performance of an opera by Wagner, one of the Liceu audience's best-loved and admired composers, took place in 1883. His works have given the Liceu many unforgettable moments. Other much-appreciated schools are late 19th-century Verism – especially Puccini – and Russian opera Mussorgsky, Rimsky-Korsakov and Tchaikovsky which reached the Liceu in 1915. The impresario Mestres Calvet enhanced the artistic quality of the bill with his stagings of works by composers including Mozart, Strauss, Falla and Stravinsky and shows by Diaghilev's Russian Ballets. Gradually the repertoire came to encompass the most widely performed titles from all over the world. The second half of the 20th century saw the premieres of works by practically all the century's great composers (Bartók, Honegger, Gershwin, Berg, Janácek, Weill, Shostakovich, Prokofiev, Britten, Schönberg, Hindemith, etc.) and revivals of Baroque and classical composers such as Monteverdi, Händel and Gluck.
A great opera house fit for the greatest artists and creators
Works by Catalan composers such as Pedrell, Granados, Morera, Pahissa, Vives, Toldrà, Montsalvatge and Gerhard have been staged at the Liceu. Some of the best voices of all time – foremost among them the Catalan singers Victoria de los Ángeles, Montserrat Caballé, Jaume Aragall and Josep Carreras – have been heard there too, and the finest conductors and operatic stage directors have worked there.
Stage design: tradition and avant-garde
Sets by traditional Catalan designers -Soler i Rovirosa, Vilomara, Junyent, Alarma, Mestres Cabanes and others- and by avant-garde artists including Bakst, Picasso, Cocteau and Miró have adorned the Liceu's stage.
Ballet has been a feature of all the Liceu's seasons. Over the years the most prestigious dance companies in the world have performed there.
In addition, the Liceu's permanent dance troupe, under the leadership of its director and dancer Joan Magriñà, gave regular performances there from 1950 to 1980.

Tweets make fun of much-maligned conditions at Olympics site in Russia.
In the wake of horror stories about brownish water, unfinished construction and other hotel and other problems in Sochi, Russia, as the media arrived for the 2014 Winter Olympics, a Twitter account launched Tuesday called @SochiProblems has gone viral.
On Thursday night after the opening ceremony, followers seemed to multiply more quickly than a figure skater could lay down a triple lutz. By 11:20 p.m. ET Thursday night, followers of @SochiProblems totaled 174,000.
One Twitter follower noted that the number of @SochiProblems followers on Twitter had surpassed that of the official Games account, @Sochi2014, which counted 133,000 followers by 11:30 p.m. Thursday night.
If you want jokes, @SochiProblems has them.
Over a photo of announcer Bob Costas in which his left eye appears red and irritated, @SochiProblems tweeted, "Bob Costas did you not listen to us and drink water."
The account also tweeted, "Bob Costas must've put water on his face. I'm sorry Bob, the result is looking like pink eye." A later tweet included the hashtag or search term #SaveBobCostasEye.
The tweet could be a response to Feb. 3 tweets from Chicago Tribune journalist Stacy St. Clair, @StacyStClair, in which she tweets that her hotel has no water, but that the front desk told her that if the water is restored, "do not use on your face because it contains something very dangerous."
In a later tweet, St. Clair says the water has been restored and she posts a photo of two glasses of water the color of — well — apple juice.
Bob Costas, meantime, has said that the appearance of his eye is due to a "minor infection."
The account also includes retweets from reporters encountering everything from packs of stray dogs to bathrooms that feature tandem toilets.
One retweet comes from Dave Mercer, the host of TV's Facts of Fishing, @FactsofFishing, showing two fully clothed Olympic athletes sitting on a couple of side-by-side toilets. Another retweet originates from Viennese journalist Simon Rosner, @SimonRosner, who tweeted, "On the way to the media center. The street is not quite ready yet," over a photo of a crumbling sidewalk.
No word on who is behind @SochiProblems. The account did not respond to a tweet requesting an interview. But its Twitter description reads, "I'm a mess, and not prepared for you!"
Journalists in Sochi offer hilarious insight into how well prepared the city is to host the Olympic Games. Spoiler alert: it's not. VPC

Chaparral contains a powerful antioxidant known as NDGA (nordihydroguaiaretic acid).1 Research has shown that the NDGA found in chaparral can inhibit lymph cancer cells.1 NDGA has also been observed to destroy breast cancer cells2, leukemia cells3, and kidney cancer cells4.
Many indigenous tribes from North America have traditionally used chaparral to treat a wide variety of ailments including chicken pox, fungal skin conditions, kidney and gallbladder stones, colds, pain and arthritis.
Chaparral is a strong antibacterial containing lignans and flavonoids that can inhibit tuberculosis, staph, and e. Coli, to name a few.5
Studies have shown that the NDGA found in chaparral is an effective anti-inflammatory.6
The NDGA found in chaparral has been shown to support cardiovascular health by inhibiting the progression of hypertension and atherosclerosis.7
NDGA has neuro-protective properties. One study showed that this antioxidant disrupted the neurological damage caused by Alzheimer's Disease.8
The powerful antiviral properties of NDGA have been shown to suppress HIV, herpes, HPV9 as well as the flu10.
Our chaparral is wild-crafted and harvested directly from the high deserts of Mexico. The chaparral is dried using a unique low-temperature process which helps to maintain the leaves in a pure and unadulterated state.
You can also infuse chaparral with our food grade hydrogen peroxide and use as a mouthwash, or infuse it with coconut oil and apply it to your skin.
*Please note: Chaparral is a powerful herb intended for short term medicinal use only. Long term use of chaparral is not recommended. We recommend consulting with your health care practitioner before using chaparral or any strong herbs or supplements.

White Built-In Bookcase
Pastel pink and gold and silver accents are the perfect confectionary color scheme to complement winter white in this glamorous living room decked out for the holidays.
Visit Original Photo
Hallway with Concrete Floor and Exposed Pipe
To further play up the industrial modern cottage vibe in this small beach house, a concrete slab floor and industrial HVAC vent running through the ceiling were left in place. Shiplap was added to one accent wall to bring in that coastal element. A blue painted sliding door opens into the bathroom and brings a little bit of color to this space.
Bathroom With Concrete Counter and Floor
A light wood vanity is topped by a gorgeous think concrete counter and sink with dual faucets.Colorful baskets add storage for extra towels or toilet paper.
Hallway and Stair Is Wide and Bright
This hallway corridor was purposefully made wider to accommodate twin dressers accessorized with round mirror and brass light sconces. The dressers add extra storage to this small cottage, allowing homeowners to tuck away extra bedding and towels. The massive mirrors reflect light and make the space feel larger.
Farmhouse Exterior With Mint Green Siding
This beautiful cottage home has all the curb appeal, with inviting, mint green siding, a classic, wooden front door with glass window, and concrete walkway with lush, green landscaping.
Black and White Tile Shower with Satin Brass Fixtures
White tile with an accent wall of black tile is modern and sophisticated in this walk in shower. Satin brass fixtures were chosen for a modern feel.
Mudroom Bench with Pegboard Wall
A pop of turquoise on a sliding door hides this mudroom and pantry combined space. The giant pegboard is an ideal flexible storage solution since the pegs can be arranged to hold whatever may be needed. One thick floating wood bench allows for a dumping zone while shoes and flip-flops tuck in below.
Mudroom with Pantry Space with White Cabinetry and Black Pegboard
White, modern slab face cabinets hide a decent amount of pantry space and utility closet and feature great leather handles. A giant pegboard allows flexibility for whatever storage needs may arise. Pegs can be rearranged to hold towels, hats, life vests, etc.
Powder Room Has Black Vanity With Gold-Toned Faucet and Hardware
A black vanity adds striking contrast to this bright white powder room. The vanity's gold-toned hardware and faucet complement the eye-catching sconces on either side of the black-framed mirror.
Gold-Toned Faucet in White Contemporary Powder Room
A gold-toned faucet adds a touch of glam to this white contemporary powder room.
White Contemporary Living Room With Built-In Bookshelves
Built-in bookshelves are ready to be filled in this white contemporary living room. A wall of French doors topped by transom windows fill the room with natural light while offering convenient access to the patio outside.
Dark Accents Add Contrast to White Contemporary Living Room
A round wood coffee table adds welcome contrast as well as a place to prop up feet in this white contemporary living room. The large neutral area rug with dark edging ties into the black-and-white pillows on the white sofa.
Colorful Artwork Dresses Up Neutral Contemporary Dining Room
A pair of bubble chandeliers and colorful artwork give this neutral contemporary dining room personality. Large windows fill the room with natural light, while a large, multicolored rug defines the dining area.
White Transitional Living Room With Green Accents
Green pillows, a plant and a coffee-table book add a fun splash of color to this white transitional living room. The room is adjacent to the kitchen, making it easy to entertain family and friends.

China and Mexico team up to fight wheat disease
[MEXICO CITY] Two agricultural research organisations have agreed to collaborate on research to combat wheat diseases and develop climate change-resistant wheat varieties.
The agreement, between the Mexico-based International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT) and the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, was signed last week (4 December).
Jointly funded by the two centres, the US$3 million, three-year project comprises a shared breeding initiative to create new wheat varieties that tolerate heat and drought — helping farmers face climate change — and resist major wheat diseases.
Research will be carried out at both centres, as well as other sites around the world.
The project will involve screening several thousand wheat samples, provided by both centres, for useful traits — particularly against a new strain of stem wheat rust, Ug99. Stem rust is caused by a parasitic fungus and devastates crops.
Traditional plant breeding techniques will be used to create suitable varieties. Molecular markers — specific DNA segments containing genes associated with desired characteristics — will be used to trace characteristics through generations.
"Of particular concern is the new, virulent strain of stem rust, Ug99, which appeared in eastern Africa eight years ago but has since moved on to the Middle East and could soon threaten the vast wheat lands of Asia," said Masa Iwanaga, director-general of CIMMYT, in a press release.
"Both parties see an urgent need to screen thousands of wheat lines to identify ones that resist the new rust race."
Researchers hope to have a wheat variety resistant to Ug99 by the end of the project, according to Mike Listman, from the communications department at CIMMYT.
"The project is the continuation of collaboration activities that already exist between both institutions," he told SciDev.Net.
Partnerships between China and CIMMYT go back three decades. More than 200 Chinese scientists have taken part in training and joint research with CIMMYT.
Around four million hectares in China are sown with wheat varieties derived from CIMMYT plants, and Chinese breeding stocks and partnerships have improved the disease resistance of CIMMYT-derived varieties grown around the world.

47 Russian Athletes Lose Appeal, Will Not Compete In Pyeongchang
The 47 Russian athletes and coaches who filed an appeal against the International Olympic Committee's decision to bar them from competing in Pyeongchang have been shut down by an appeals court.
The IOC banned Russian officials and athletes from competing in the 2018 Winter Olympics after a historic doping scandal which revealed the country had a state-sponsored doping program to give athletes an advantage in Sochi four years ago. The IOC said it would allow individuals who have been deemed 'clean' the ability to participate in Pyeongchang games as "Olympic Athletes from Russia."
Medals won by the group of 170 Russian athletes would not be reflected in Russia's overall medal count.
The group of athletes appealed the decision saying there was insufficient evidence tying them to the doping scandal. However, the Court of Arbitration for Sport disagreed, denying their appear just a few hours before the games officially began.
Thanks to the ban, several of Russia's biggest names in winter sports will not be competing. They include 6 time gold medal skeedskating champ Viktor Ahn, and world champion biathlete Anton Shipulin.

Interactive phonemic chart
Submitted on 13 February, 2009 - 01:34
While I think this chart would be a good item for students to be able to access, I was surprised, when trying it out, that voiceless consonants (p, t, f) are here voiced. When combining the sounds with diphthongs, for example, 'y' with 'ear' to make 'year', (sorry - can't do the phonemic symbols) there is little if any variation of sound between the consonant and the diphthong. What we get sounds like 'year' x 2.

Interactive Pronunciation Chart
Submitted on 13 February, 2009 - 17:49
I agree with the previous comment (p, t, k) here are voiced. Very confusing!
Please could there be a clarification in meaning and use between the two words: phonetic and phonemic. They are used here as if they mean the same thing.
Phonetic chart errors
Submitted on 17 February, 2009 - 11:58
I love the idea of this chart and want to get my students using it in a self-learning mode, but unfortunately in it's current form it's fatally flawed. Many of the consonants (not all) include a vowel sound, which has led to the previous comments noting that some unvoiced consonants are voiced on this chart. The sound sample provided for /p/, for example is actually /pə/. Many other consonants are incorrectly folloed by schwa including /b/, /t/, /d/, /k/, /g/, /f/, /v/, /ð/, /h/, /l/. I hope the British Council will correct these errors because they are misleading learners when actually the tool ought to be a great boon to us all!
Phonemic chart
Submitted on 3 March, 2009 - 19:54
Hi everyone
Thanks for your comments.
Firstly, you're absolutely right about phonemic/phonetic mix up: this is a phonemic chart.
As far as the sounds are concerned, I agree with Tavis that the problem is that there is a schwa added after the consonants in many cases. I would also say though that without the schwa sound it would be almost impossible to detect, for example, /p/.
We are looking to find a better, more accurate solution, and I will come back to this page to let you know about our progress.
All the best

Phonemic Chart...
Submitted on 5 May, 2009 - 15:40
I figure this is because computers can reproduce exact sounds (phonetic), but don't understand or reproduce meaning (phonemic) using features.
In short: the phonemic chart is phonemic. The sounds plugged in are phonetic.
To get the sense of a phoneme, it needs friends, the acid test of separate phonemes being minimal pairs. Anyway can the chart store up minimal pairs? (Rob.. we have big plans for you... seriously, take care of yourself, my project just about cost me my girlfriend...)

From the fiction's perspective, the magic of logic is its own paradigm. The logic of magic can override the logic of medical science. Since it's "magic", they are able to go back in time and change the history. However, the logic of readership will decline due to the uninteresting plot.

This might be out of nowhere, but for the longest(i.e. ep 1) I can't see Mahiro as anything but an ass =0\. There is NO way I could have watched this series with him as the central protagonist. The story, characters(sans Mahiro), and mythical aspects of this show keep me watching week after week, but what I can't wait to see is Yoshino telling Mahiro that he was the one dating Aika, only for Mahiro to cry and get angry, knowing that Yoshino is forever fortified in Aika's heart as her #1 into her death, only to receive more love from Hakase when Yoshino's intentions bear fruit while leaving Mahiro a lonely tsun that never had the love of anyone else...

On the morality of killing though. I think it would be strange to tack Human morals and values to an entity like the Tree of Genesis ( & the Tree of Exodus for that matter) because first of all they're not human nor part of our community/civilization, apparently Logic is the main driving force of the tree of Genesis. Humans are like Ants to it, or maybe more like Bacteria.

I'm thinking if Aika does turn out to be the Mage of Exodus, then Samon's time in the spotlight is going to dry up soon, and once Hakaze presumably returns to the present, in a few more episodes say...Samon will likely be relegated back to minor character status, like he was prior to the start of this multi-episode sword banging.
On the subject of Mahiro, yes, he's definitely not traditional protagonist material (though one could argue he's not really the/or a protagonist, but rather we're watching a play in which he's called the protagonist...a subtle difference, but a difference non-the-less). The entire show has obviously been inspired by Shakespeare, though not as in-your-face as Hollywood has with such movies like Claire Dane's Romeo and Juliet, and the portrayal of Mahiro is just one of many things seemingly shaped from that inspiration.
I think the real question is what Mahiro's fate is going to be. Shakespeare did have a few happy endings, but those plays are not usually what he's remembered for.

the tide keeps turning, the twists still coming, the battle outside the barrier had ended but Samon and the shounens are still talking at the same spot...
i am guessing they want us to believe Junichirou is Aika's killer but most likely it will be more twisted than that

MBS (the primary channel for this series and Crunchyroll source) is going to take 2 weeks break for Zetsuen, episode 13 is going to be aired on 10th January.
Another channel, TBS, apparently only take 1 week break, they are going to air episode 13 on 4th January. (It's possible this one is still going to be changed later)

Is it at all clear how exactly Hakaze was "born"? I mean, was she already a person, and then became the Princess of Genesis?
Or was she created/born when the tree neared its revival?
Totally wild guess (and I have no idea how it would work), but could Aika have been Hakaze pre-Princess of Genesis? I realize this sounds ridiculous and yeah, no idea how it would've worked, but...
I guess it's more logical that she's the mage of Exodus, but I don't know. That seems so pat to me.

Lots of dialogue in this episode as well.
They all keep standing in the same place and discussing things.
So Samon crumbled against the duo's logic.
Seems like Mahiro will never find the real culprit..
At least Hakaze is now back and things are rolling forward.
Very interesting episode!

Another great episode, the Tree of Genesis really favors Hakaze to the point of sending her a new offering for her sake because she didn't find Samon's one.
Yoshino and Mahiro deeply wounded but both Hakaze and Samon are trying to save them.
And my Natsumura x Yamamoto pairing I'm sure Junichirou also shipped them and left them alone
Anyway, BONES why did you delay Hanemura's appearance? He was supposed to appear at the end of this episode and now I have to wait 3 weeks! Looks like next episode is going to be half filler and half manga material. and I get the impression that Hanemura will debut at the end of episode because of the anime-orignal material*sobs*

And it isn't only extremists like Savage who are having trouble stomaching the idea of women in positions of increasing power. We now have a female speaker of the House, and the strong possibility of the first female president; the prospect is sending some men over the edge. MSNBC host Tucker Carlson recently described Hillary Clinton as "castrating, overbearing and scary." Why Carlson looks at the junior senator from New York and immediately fears for the safety of his testicles might be something he and his therapist should explore, but he's hardly alone — after the election Chris Matthews wondered on the air if Nancy Pelosi was "going to castrate Steny Hoyer."
…And if Hillary Clinton is the Democratic nominee, we can expect a virtual explosion of sexist rhetoric, every last drop of it based in fear and anxiety. She already gets described with a whole series of derogatory adjectives that don't seem to ever be applied to male politicians — she is "ambitious" (unlike the men running for president) and "calculating" (unlike every other politician), to take just two…. Conservative radio and TV host Glenn Beck admitted that Hillary Clinton's voice drives him crazy. "She's the stereotypical bitch, you know what I mean?" he said. "After four years, don't you think every man in America will go insane?"
For real. I've said it before and I'll say it again: criticize Hillary all you want for her politics and actions, but the second you start tossing around words like "calculating," "ambitious," "harridan," "shrill," "castrating," and the like, it's awfully hard to believe you're criticizing her for anything but being a woman who doesn't know her place.
There's a time-honored term for politicians who don't serve their constituents well: "Asshole." Feel free to call her that, if you believe that's what she is. Feel free to tell me all the good reasons not to vote for her. I have no problem acknowledging that there are plenty of those.
But as soon as you say, "I have no problem with a woman president, but…"
- She only got where she is because of her husband.
- She only got where she is because she has this totally inexplicable ability to raise money.
- She doesn't have the necessary leadership skills.
- She's not tough enough.
- She doesn't have the qualifications to be a serious contender.
once again, I'm going to have an awfully hard time believing you're criticizing her for being anything but a woman who doesn't know her place.
Hillary Clinton as president might just fuck up this country as spectacularly as any number of male presidents have. But I feel very confident in saying this (and her people are welcome to adopt it as a campaign slogan): as president, Hillary Clinton will never cut anyone's balls off.
Until people stop raising the possibility that she will, I'm going to have an awfully hard time believing…

SSETI Express nominated for 'Space Oscar'
The European Space Agency (ESA) sponsored student satellite, SSETI Express, is in the running for one of the Sir Arthur Clarke Awards (The UK Space Awards), often termed the 'space oscars'.
The SSETI teams of university students and radio amateurs throughout Europe have been nominated in the category Best Student Achievement, "for designing, building and having launched a student satellite."
The winners in each category will be announced on Saturday 8 April, at a gala dinner which marks the end of the eighth British Rocketry Oral History Programme (BROHP) meeting at Charterhouse School, near Godalming, Surrey, UK.
"I am delighted to hear that the SSETI community has been nominated for this prestigious award," said Neil Melville, ESA Project Manager and System Engineer for SSETI Express.
"It is a well-deserved honour in recognition of the remarkable enthusiasm and dedication displayed by all the students involved. I am proud of the strong involvement of ESA in this unique project, and will continue to work with SSETI towards the success of its future projects."
"This nomination represents a lot to me and to the association because it shows that the true value of all we have achieved is recognised by the scientific community," said Mathieu Bolland, President of the SSETI Association.
"Thanks to the hard work of our members, the ESA Education Department and our partners, this dream has come true. I hope it will provide the fresh wind of motivation amongst the association necessary for the pursuit of our adventure to the Moon."
A presentation on the SSETI Student Satellite Project will also be given during the BROHP conference, on Friday 7 April, by UK representative Oliver Finn.
The talk will give a brief overview of the SSETI project, specifically detailing the launch of SSETI Express, as well as the role of the Assembly Integration and Verification team in the next SSETI mission (SSETI ESEO) and the future goals of the project.
The Student Space Exploration and Technology Initiative (SSETI) was created by ESA's Education Department in 2000. In October of that year, students from 21 European universities were brought together via the internet to discuss how to turn their dream of building and launching a satellite into reality. Since then, it has grown to encompass hundreds of students across Europe.
The SSETI aims to increase the number of European students working in the fields of space technology and science by giving them practical, hands-on experience of working on space missions. The intention is to ensure that Europe has a well-trained, enthusiastic, work force that is ready to meet the technological challenges of the next 30 years.
ESA's role is to provide managerial and technical coordination. It helps bring students together; provides facilities for meetings, verification and testing; and offers expert guidance from its technical staff. However, the end-product is the creation of the students. Working in teams across Europe they are responsible for the concept, design, development, construction, launch and operation of the spacecraft and payloads.
SSETI Express
SSETI Express, sponsored by ESA's Education Department, was the first pan-European student microsatellite to be launched under the SSETI programme.
One of the major challenges of the project was to create an efficient team from the 23 groups of university students from many countries who worked together via the internet to design and build the satellite, overcoming distance and differences in cultural background.
The small spacecraft, similar in size and shape to a washing machine (approx. 60 x 60 x 90 cm), weighed about 62 kg and carried a payload of 24 kg. On board the student-built spacecraft were three extremely small pico-satellites, each weighing around one kg. These were deployed one hour and 40 minutes after launch.
In addition to acting as a test bed for many designs, including a cold-gas attitude control system, SSETI Express was intended to take pictures of the Earth and function as a radio transponder.
The spacecraft was launched on a Cosmos 3M rocket from Plesetsk, Russia, on 27 October 2005. The launch itself was successful but, unfortunately, the mission only lasted 12.5 hours as the solar array was unable to charge the batteries, due to a malfunction in the Electrical Power Subsystem.
Nevertheless, in many respects SSETI Express was a great success and many valuable lessons were learned. Of the 19 subsystems, 12 operated successfully, 5 could not be tested because the mission ended prematurely, and only 2 failed (one of them with no consequence as there was a backup). The media impact was enormous, with an estimated 100 million TV viewers.
Future SSETI missions
The SSETI is already looking to the future with two more satellite projects under way. Next in line is the European Student Earth Orbiter (ESEO), an Earth observation and technology demonstrator which is being developed by 300 students across Europe. Launch is currently scheduled for 2008.
There will also shortly be a feasibility study for a European Student Moon Orbiter (ESMO), with a possible launch around 2011.

Pivot Interiors Calendar
Using the format we designed for our Studio On Fire calendars, the marketing team over at Pivot Interiors designed this 2012 calendar in celebration of their expansion into southern California. Created as a tribute to California architecture, this was used as a gift for their clients and was a great way for them to showcase their ties to the architectural and design communities. The beautifully detailed illustrations required us to keep a critical eye on the registration while on press and we're thrilled with how tight the prints came out. The interior pages and outer wrap were printed together on one press sheet using four inks on Mohawk Via Vellum Bright White 100C. The stand was printed with one ink on a custom duplexed paper made of Mohawk Via Vellum Bright Wht 100C and Mohawk Loop Vellum Thai Gold 100C before being diecut and hand assembled.

Sciex - Scientific Exchange Programme NMS.CH
The Scientific Exchange Programme (Sciex-NMSch) was part of the Swiss Contribution to the New Member States (NMS) of the European Union and aimed at contributing to the reduction of economic and social disparities in the enlarged European Union through fostering the scientific capacities of Researchers in the NMS and promoting sustainable research partnerships between the ten NMS and Switzerland.
The Programme started in 2009 and terminated in April 2016. No further applications are possible.
The New Member States (NMS) of the European Union involved in the Programme were: Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Slovak Republic, Slovenia.
The main goal of the Programme was to establish scientific partnerships, which:
1) Develop individual Researchers' capacities (human capital);
2) Foster scientific progress and innovation (scientific prospects); and
3) Establish or enhance networks between Researchers (networking).
The Scientific Exchange Programme (Sciex-NMSch) provided:
1) Research Fellowships for Junior Researchers from the ten NMS to pursue their research in cooperation with Swiss Researchers in Swiss research institutions and
2) Short-term visits for Senior Researchers of granted Fellowships.
Altogether, 10 calls have been organized over the whole duration of the Programme and more than 500 young researchers from the EU-10 countries were given the opportunity to complete a research residency of between 6 and 24 months in Switzerland. Ideal working and framework conditions support the success of their research. The evaluation procedure was exclusively based on the scientific quality of the fellowship proposal and guaranteed the excellence principles of the Programme (see Details on the evaluation procedure). The Programme was open to all scientific fields.
The total budget of the Programme amounted to 46 million Swiss Francs.
The Programme was coordinated by the Rectors' Conference of Swiss Higher Education Institutions (swissuniversities) on a mandate of the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC).

Some recruits might look at the growing pains of Maryland's football program as a negative. But Jalen Brooks, a 6-foot-3, 220-pound linebacker from North Gwinnett High in Suwanee, Ga., has always seen the Terps' struggles as an opportunity.
"The biggest thing [that set Maryland apart from other schools] was the rebuilding phase it was going through," Brooks said. "With Coach [Randy] Edsall and [outside linebackers coach Lyndon] Johnson both at the University of Connecticut, I learned about how they completely changed the program and built it from the ground up and how successful that school has been. Talking to Coach Edsall, he's trying the same thing at Maryland in a much quicker time period."
Brooks decided to become part of the rebuilding process Monday, committing to the Terps a week-and-a-half after visiting College Park for the first time and picking up a Maryland offer.
"It feels like a great, great decision," Brooks said Wednesday. "I like the school a lot. … I wanted to commit [on my visit], but Coach Edsall told me to take some time and think about it with my family. On Monday I made it official."
Brooks picked the Terps over offers from Air Force, Ball State and Navy, among others. Kentucky, Mississippi State, North Carolina State and Wake Forest were among the other interested FBS programs. A 3.7 student, Brooks also had scholarship opportunities from many Ivy League schools, including Harvard and Yale. The future Terp plans to major in marketing and business at Maryland.
"To be honest, almost all doors should be open to him," said North Gwinnett coach Bob Sphire. "Jalen is an outstanding student and just a quality young man. You don't have to worry about the periphery stuff."
Sphire welcomed Brooks into his program three years ago, and was immediately impressed by his versatility and his work ethic. So was Maryland offensive line coach Tom Brattan, who recruits Georgia for the Terps and began pursuing Brooks in the spring of his junior year. Brattan came to North Gwinnett for a spring practice this year.
"Tom just really likes how [Brooks] developed and what he saw on the practice field," Sphire said. "[The recruiting process] was just getting ready to explode on him. Maryland kind of got in there and pulled the plug before everybody else was ready."
In Maryland's 3-4 defense, Brooks is expected to play the SAM linebacker -- a position that's almost identical to the role he plays in high school.
"I'm familiar with the position and know that the coaches won't have to teach me much. That'll give me an advantage coming in actually playing the same position for four or five years. That's a definite selling point."
Said Sphire: "He can play out in space and he can play in the box. That's kind of a rare combination for someone 6-3, 220 pounds."
Brooks said he was happy to avoid most of the stress of the recruiting process by making his decision roughly three months after it started. In Maryland, he found a program with "a good mix" of academics and athletics. And he found a football team ready to embark on a new era.
"I'm just really excited to be a Terp and ready to be part of this rebuilding process," Brooks said. "I'm looking forward to coming up there as soon as possible."

A Dalmatian, a Shetland sheepdog, a boxer, several mutts and one big golden retriever were among the special guests at the grand opening of Zoom Room Huntington Beach over the weekend.
It's the 20th Zoom Room founded by Jaime Van Wye, a former dog trainer, and it's the first in Orange County.
"I really wanted to create an indoor space where dogs and their owners could have some fun, and learn," Van Wye said.
Van Wye opened the first Zoom Room in 2007 in Culver City.
What's Zoom Room Huntington Beach all about? There are agility classes, obedience classes, puppy therapy, private training sessions, a dog gym rental, treats, toys and training gear.
There's also a doggie disco now and then. And more thing: doggie parties.
"We've already had a Yorkie birthday party with 30 little dogs all celebrating their birthdays here," said franchise owner Blane Dydasco, who is in partnership with his wife, Mel Martin. "We are open to charity groups, civic groups, singles mixers, rescue groups and welcome all of them."
Dydasco left the film industry, where he worked in lighting, to open this business. Martin, a teacher, is right by his side.
"We are lifelong dog lovers, and have two of them, so this seemed to be a perfect fit," he said.
At the grand opening, dogs were lined up to go into a photo booth, and their owners chose from hats, sunglasses, boas, and other props to dress up the pooches. Dydasco and Martin put a fluffy boa on their boxer Manny, and he was all set for his close up.
Dydasco's father, Vince, flew in from Oahu with special leis and blessed Zoom Room. Humans got goodie bags filled with chocolate-covered macadamia nuts.
"They're not for dogs," Dydasco said.
Cards for free appetizers at Lazy Dog Cafe also were tucked in the bags.
Four-pawed guests received their own bags filled with treats and cookies.
Inside the sporty canine gym is agility equipment, lockers for dog owners, cubbies with dog toys, and blackboards with monthly specials. A table was set up during the weekend event with information on the Orange County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Raffle tickets were sold, with proceeds going to the group.
There's a comfy couch for humans and a bar with padded stools facing the agility room for doggie moms and dads to relax.
Doggie treats? Right there on the bar. A coffee station is nearby.
"We want this to be a happy place for everyone," Dydasco said.
Margo Listern, of Huntington Beach, came in to check out the Zoom Room.
"I have a poodle named Roxy, and this would be a wonderful place to hold a poodle party with Roxy and her friends," Listern said. "She's at home today, but I'm going to bring her in next week and see what her reaction is."
"We do love our pets, don't we?" she said.

WebMD Medical News
Reviewed by Louise Chang, MD
Oct. 30, 2012 — If you're trying to clean up a house flooded by Hurricane Sandy, be aware that you're in a race against mold and bacteria, which can grow quickly in damp environments.
Mold is especially dangerous for people with breathing problems caused by allergies or asthma. But high levels of mold can also cause problems for people who are relatively healthy. Symptoms of mold exposure include wheezing, shortness of breath, sore throats, flu-like aches and pains, and fatigue.
Mold isn't the only threat from flooding. Bacteria may also be a problem if your house was soaked by sewage. Bacteria can cause dangerous gastrointestinal and skin infections.
That's why it's important to stop these pathogens before they take hold of your home.
"You've really got 24 to 36 hours to work with," says Rebecca Morley, executive director of the National Center for Healthy Housing, a nonprofit organization that wrote a guide to help residents clean up flooded homes after Hurricane Katrina.
The good news is that the faster you act, the more you may be able to save.
DIY Cleanup? Or Call a Pro?
The first thing to do is to pump out or soak up any standing water. But be careful: If you've got several feet of water in a basement, where fuse boxes and other electrical circuitry may be submerged, have emergency workers clear the space before you get to work.
If you have a lot of water in the house, Morley, who has been through two floods herself, says hiring help can be a good investment.
"I had water up to my ankles. My carpet was floating when I got home," Morley says. "These restoration companies have all the heavy equipment that's needed to dry out a place quickly. They bring in their big fans, their big dehumidifiers."
You might also need a professional if your house was flooded with sewage, which has an unmistakable smell. Sewage is hazardous and best handled by someone who's trained.
Getting Started
- Start hauling wet things, especially plush items like pillows, upholstered furniture, or curtains out of the house to a place like the garage or the driveway where they can dry. "They are going to be the more challenging things to salvage," Morley says.
- Use a shop vac or wet vac to suck water out of soggy carpets.
- Fans can help get air moving in enclosed spaces, but they may not be enough.
- Consider renting or buying a dehumidifier to keep moisture levels low in the air in rooms you're trying to dry. Basements and big areas may require larger, commercial-sized machines. "You want to get as much air movement as possible over the wet areas," says Arthur Lau, a certified microbial investigator for Microecologies, a national restoration and cleanup company.
- Remove baseboards and moldings from flooded walls, especially if the walls are made of sheetrock. "Baseboards really prevent the lower few inches of wet walls from drying out, no matter how much air you put on it," Lau says.
- Cut small openings along the bases of walls to let air into the wall to dry the back as well as the front of the sheetrock. "The paper covering on sheetrock is on the front and back sides. So you may see nothing on the room-side surface, but you don't know what's happening on the backside," Lau says.
Save or Toss?
The National Center for Healthy Housing recommends tossing the following items if they look or smell moldy or they've been underwater:
- Carpet, carpet padding, and rugs
- Upholstered furniture
- Computers, microwaves, window A/C units, or any appliances that have fans that were sitting in moldy rooms
- Papers and books
- Food items, including canned foods if they were in contact with flood waters
Items that can usually be cleaned and saved include:
- Hard, non-porous items like jewelry, china and dishes, glass, porcelain, and metal
- Wood furniture, even if it's moldy, as long as it's in good condition
- Some electronics and small appliances, depending on flooding conditions
- Photographs, books, and valuable legal documents with only small levels of mold
- Artwork, textiles, or clothing that has no physical damage
Keep in mind that undamaged items may need to be stored away from the house while you dry it out.
Clean hard surfaces that have small amounts of mold with detergent and "as little water as possible," Morley says. "The most important thing is to keep things dry," she says.
Protective Clothing
Also, if you can see mold growing, you should take precautions to keep from breathing it in. Wear an N95 respirator mask, which can be purchased at hardware stores. You may also want to consider heavy work boots and puncture-resistant gloves to protect your hands and feet from sharp objects if you're also dealing with debris.
