Mississippi State is the state institution of higher learning with bio-recovery technicians certified to perform trauma scene cleanup.
While no one at the university, including those in the Office of Regulatory Compliance and Safety, looks forward to a required cleanup of biohazardous waste, being prepared for and appropriately responding to a traumatic event is critical, according to Patricia Cox, ORCS biosafety officer.
At her recent campus presentation, "The Dark Side of Biosafety," Cox explained her department's expertise in removing blood-borne pathogens and other types of potentially infectious biohazardous waste.
When traumatic events occur, bio-recovery is necessary for the containment of bio-hazardous material, which refers to anything that can cause human disease, she said.
"The whole point of bio-recovery is to return the environment back to a safe and healthy environment," Cox said. "This particular university has the capability of responsiveness and will also respond to other IHL universities if they have a need for this."
Cox also emphasized just how difficult the process actually is. If trauma occurs requiring extensive bio-hazardous cleanup, responders must make certain several important questions are answered before hiring a professional bio-recovery company.
"You want to be sure they meet all important Environmental Protection Agency and Occupational Safety and Health Administration standards," she continued. "Also, are they certified through the American Bio-Recovery Association, which is the professional organization that encompasses this particular niche of the cleaning industry?"
Additionally, the responding service should hold at least $1 million of commercial liability insurance. Cox advised asking how employees are trained and what kinds of disinfectants they use. Don't hesitate to call the Better Business Bureau, she said.
Cox offered her expertise to anyone with questions about how to vet a trauma cleanup company; she is available at 662-325-0620.

Super Smash Bros. Screenshot Teases Xerneas
The latest screenshot from the upcoming Wii U version of Super Smash Bros. teased the inclusion of Pokemon X and Y's Xerneas.
The screenshot was posted on the official Super Smash Bros site and featured Pikachu in the foreground while Xerneas was looking off towards the distance in the background.
Super Smash Bros. director Masahiro Sakurai took this screenshot during development and also posted it to the Super Smash Bros. Series community in Miiverse. What could he be hinting at here?
Whether or not Xerneas will show up as a playable character, an assist or simply a background character is still a mystery, but we'll let you know if more information regarding its appearance in the game, and whether or not it will be joined by Yveltal, is revealed.
Super Smash Bros. is set for release in 2014 for 3DS and Wii U.

CASA GRANDE, Ariz. – The New England Revolution fell to Vancouver Whitecaps FC, 4-1, on Tuesday night at Grande Sports World. Whitecaps forward Darren Mattocks recorded a hat trick in the first 15 minutes of the game to help stake the Whitecaps to a lead they would not relinquish.
Mattocks put Vancouver on the board 65 seconds into the game when he slotted a Kekuta Manneh low cross past Revs keeper Bobby Shuttleworth. Four minutes later, he struck again when he avoided an offside call and took Camilo Sanvezzo's defense-splitting pass up the middle and slotted home past Shuttleworth.
Chris Tierney pulled one back for the Revs in the 11th minute, converting a penalty kick with a hard shot past Caps keeper Joe Cannon. Newly-signed Matt Horth drew the call when he was taken down in the box while attempting to connect with a Tierney cross.
Mattocks struck for the third time in the 15th minute, this time rising above all players in the box on an Alain Rochat free kick.
The score remained 3-1 until halftime, despite the Revs pushing the attack for the final 25 minutes.
Both teams made almost wholesale changes to their lineups at halftime. After the new players settled in, the Revs picked up where they left off in the first half and strung together long stretches of possession.
Twenty minutes into the second half, however, Vancouver benefited off the counter attack. The Caps were awarded a penalty after Stephen McCarthy stripped Matt Watson in the box with a sliding tackle. Kenny Miller stepped up and buried his shot past substitute keeper Luis Soffner, who dove the correct way, to put Vancouver up, 4-1 in the 65th minute.
The Revs continued to put pressure on the Whitecaps' defense as the second half progressed, but were unable to break through substitute keeper Brad Knighton.
The Revs return to Foxborough on Wednesday, and will train locally for one week before departing for Tucson, Ariz., on Feb. 9. The team will play four matches in the Desert Diamond Cup: Feb. 13 vs. Seattle Sounders FC, Feb. 16 vs. New York Red Bulls, Feb. 20 vs. Real Salt Lake and Feb. 23 in the championship or consolation match. The group-round matches (Feb. 13-20) will be live streamed by mlssoccer.com, while the championship match will be televised live by NBC Sports Network.

Where to Shop for Plants
Since most garden centers buy—rather than raise—most of what they sell, there is room for tremendous variation in buying ability and buying standards. The opinions we collected from consumers on garden centers reflect this big variation in quality.
Where to Find the Best Prices for Plants
We found tremendous price variation among area garden centers—perhaps more than in any other subject we cover. Unfortunately, we found the lowest prices at big chains, which receive poor ratings from their customers.

I have gone to shows dating back to 2004, purchased nearly every DVD release and turned several friends on to PWG because I take pride in doing my part to help support the company. And yes, it is important to me to continue buying those tickets, t-shirts, etc. I understand and respect Dragon's position on this and I'll try to do whatever I can to keep attending the shows moving forward. But I don't see anything wrong with bringing up the subject here. If it doesn't matter to you what day the shows run on, maybe you'd be better off finding a topic here that DOES matter to you.

Seniors who choose to hire a private senior care agency or caregiver to provide for their care services can benefit from a professional plan of care. A senior care plan will guide the caregiver to maintain a consistent routine and include all the necessary activities in Glen Ridge for healthy aging.
Senior Assistance - Questions to Consider When Evaluating Senior Care Needs
With home health care agencies in Glen Ridge, you can receive many benefits allowing you to live a much easier and stress-free life. With someone providing care for your senior parents when you are not around, you have nothing to worry about. When you are overburdened with the responsibility of caring for your parents and for your own family, you might become unhappy and irritated and this could lead to more tensions and worries in your family. Home healthcare agencies can help by sending professionals who are trained and suited to provide all kinds of help to your senior folks, ranging from personal care services to medical services.
Senior Care - In Home Care Or Assisted Living - Pros and Cons
As our grandparents and parents grow older, we need to decide how to care for them. None of us would want to place them in a health care facility, under the care of others. However, our hectic schedules, time for kids or our health problems may leave us with no choice but to put them in senior care.
Assisted living facilities and nursing homes are also referred to as senior care communities. When you need to place your aging relatives in a senior care community, you'd better make sure that they get the best possible care. Read further to learn some aspects that you should consider before deciding to let your loved ones stay in an assisted living facility.
Tips to Choose the Best Senior Care Community - Better Be Right on the First Time
When you visit a facility, see how it looks. If it looks uninviting, with its dirt and clutter, just walk away. Use a restroom to see if the toilets, sinks or floor are clean or not. If the toilet is dirty, there is tendency for the other restrooms to be filthy, as well.
If possible, try to have lunch at the cafeteria. Try to observe the way the food tastes, the manner in which service is given and the atmosphere, as a whole. Whatever you feel about the cafeteria indicates how resident seniors also feel.
Lastly, speak with the staff directly to know how the facility is being maintained. It is normal to feel skeptical if any people from the staff act in a rude and unprofessional manner, or if they are not familiar with the facility.
How to Find the Best 24 Hour Companion Care Services in Glen Ridge,Essex County?
Aging in place is the term used for retrofitting existing homes to meet the changing needs of senior citizens. It helps the elderly by providing the necessary safeguards and conveniences which allow these individuals to remain in their homes, keep their independence and protect their dignity. Four simple adjustments can make the homes of our seniors safer and easier for them and any caregivers who assist them.
The four simple retrofits most often suggested by senior care professionals are:
1. Brighter lights
Special lighting on stairways, steps and hallways save the elderly from falls. Senior care professionals can make a detailed evaluation of the home and suggest additional lighting or brighter light bulbs where needed.
2. Bathroom
Adding grab bars on the toilet or in a shower increase comfort and security for your loved one and provides peace of mind for family.
3. Steps / Stairs
Ramps instead of stairs or a lift chair for a flight of stairs are suggestions frequently made by senior care professionals. They allow the mobility impaired the freedom to use their home fully without worries about falls.
4. Rearrangement
The well-trained, professional employees of a local senior care provider can assist individuals with rearranging cupboards, closets and rooms to accommodate current abilities and needs. A few simple changes provide independence and the personal satisfaction of being able to do it themselves.
Homeowners take note: check your local building codes before you begin a retrofitting project that involves stairs and ramps. Depending on the county and town in which you live, building codes may vary and a permit may be needed before you begin. This adds to the expense but is well worth the peace of mind you get knowing your project is legal and safe.
Most of the retrofits suggested here are not expensive. Home care and home health care providers can be very helpful to you if you are considering a retrofit for a loved one. They are familiar with different ways of doing things and how each type of movement restriction affects individuals aging in place. This knowledge allows these professionals to meet the changing needs of seniors. Many of these companies will provide you a free consultation on retrofitting a home. In addition, their care services are available on a temporary or full-time basis, from a few hours a month to around-the-clock care. They are true professionals dedicated to preserving a senior's dignity, providing assistance and bringing peace of mind to all concerned.

DYNA has 2 main solver types -- explicit (iteration based) and implicit (matrix inversion, essentially). If you're only using one system and the explicit solver, then there's no need for any MPI, as ls-dyna is multi-threaded. Last I knew, however, the implicit solver is only parallelized in mpp-dyna. I've found the explicit solver to not be overly communications heavy. I.e., I've seen decent scaling using plain-jane GigE and very modest node counts. Unfortunately, I haven't done any benchmarks of the various MPI versions available. HTH. -- Joshua Baker-LePain QB3 Shared Cluster Sysadmin UCSF

At Brightworks, we push students to approach the world beyond our school doors as their rightful learning domain, rich with opportunities for connection, exchange and inspiration. The exploration phase of our arc is marked by field excursions and contact with community experts. Professionals take time to visit our students and share their passions, inspiring new ideas and project directions. From this simmering of perspectives we expect to change what we – the children, collaborators and experts – initially perceive as possible.
It turns out that lot of magic can happen when a mutually inspiring exchange occurs between a student and an expert, which is what occurred between Beth and Natasha, resulting in a surprising turn of events this fall.
During our Maps Arc last spring, we had the pleasure of welcoming our neighbors, Beth and Shawn from Stamen Design, into our space to present the kinds of maps they make. In her enthusiastic blog post, Beth noted that the children quickly understood that "maps are pictures of data, and data can by anything."
Natasha Mei was particularly inspired by the presentation and decided that for her final project she would do what Stamen does: put two seemingly unconnected data points together to make an interesting and beautiful map.
Throughout the process of planning, researching, doing field work for data collection, emailing La Boulange some questions, consulting with Beth, seeking guidance from Gever and me (her collaborator), and lots of testing and revising, Natasha stayed committed to her vision of a beautifully detailed product. Her work culminated in a multi-layer map showing a relationship between La Boulange cafès and pigeons, a work of art and science that she calls "Natasha's Pigeon and Pastry Project."
Recently, we received word from Beth about the UC Berkeley Symposium, "Mapping and its Discontents", which called for submissions of "see-through maps that lay bare their point of view… discussing the position of the mapmaker, the ways maps reveal or hide their agendas, and the uses to which maps are put."
Natasha needed no further persuasion to submit. She explained to me that, if chosen, it would be really exciting to have her map published in the world, "for other people to see, [not just] Brightworks people at the exposition night."
Not only was Natasha's map chosen as a notable map among other provocative and beautiful entries, she received an Award of Special Merit! Check out Natasha's page, which includes her essay, on the symposium's web site (http://seethroughmaps.wordpress.com/2013/10/27/map-ong-natasha-mei/)
Natasha attended opening night with her parents, which was formatted much like the Brightworks Exposition night in which creators stand by their projects to answer questions and talk about their process and rationale.
Her mother Aleksandra reported, "During a break she spotted Beth from Stamen, went to say hi (Edwin and I hung back), and Beth greeted her warmly and introduced her to quite a few people. From there, Susan Moffet and Jennifer Wolch, the Dean of the College of Environmental Design, came over to say hello to Mei and present her with an award of special merit. Mei had a lot of presence and answered questions with clarity and poise both during this break as well as after the speakers concluded."
Check out symposium attendees' tweets about Natasha Mei's project:
When I asked Natasha what it was like for her, she said, "I was nervous, but I was proud. I was the only kid there. I got one of only two awards given out!"
We are all so proud of Natasha, so grateful for our relationship with Beth and the gang at Stamen, and we feel certain this will not be the only case in which our students' projects get notoriety in the world!

The Hubby and I moved into a loft almost a year ago and we have been slowly decorating and making it a home ever since. Surprisingly we did not have to buy very much new stuff, because most of our furniture ended up looking better in this space than it ever did in the house we were in before. Still there have been projects that have needed our attention. First up and the most important was, "What to do with all of our books?" We both have quite a few books and knew a standard bookcase would not do it. Nor would it complement our new space and high ceilings. We quickly realized we would have to do some sort of custom-built in. We both always wanted a full wall with a floor to ceiling bookshelf, but to have that put in was going to cost us quite a few pennies. So I hit Pinterest and searched for a way that we could accomplish the look we needed while not breaking the bank.
I stumbled on the idea of using plumbing pipe, which not only would look great in our space, it's also pretty easy to work with so any novice DIY junkie could pull it off. I found a couple of different options that we liked and combined a few different processes to make the most economical bookcase for our needs. See below to see our process and I will let you know along the way the things I like and the things I would do differently the second time around.
- Wood Lumber
- 3/4 Galvanized Pipe (2 for each shelf plus 4 additional for the top wall connection)
- 3/4 Flanges (4)
- 3/4 Elbow Fittings (2)
- 3/4 Coupling Fitting (2 for each shelf)
- Wood Stain
- Miter Saw
- 7/8 inch Rotary Drill Bit
- Sand Paper
1. Cut the wood the length you want you shelves to be. Be sure to take into account that the pipe on each side is going to shorten your actual space a bit. Also be sure not to make them too long, because depending on what you are putting on the shelves, you do not want them to bend due to weight.
2. Measure 4 inches on each length end and make a mark that is centered width wise. This is where you are going to drill your holes for the pipes. You want the wholes to be big enough for the pipe to slide through but small enough for the stopper to hold the shelf up.
3. Sand the cut wood to clean up the edges. Be sure to get rid of all slivers around the areas that were cut. I added a bit of rounding to corners to make them look a little less than perfect. Each one is a little unique, which I like.
4. Stain your wood in a well ventilated area. Follow staining directions until you reach your desired color. We did not put any seal on top our stain because the shelves were going indoors and would not be subjected to any weather elements or moisture.
5. Once your stain is completely dry you can start building your piece. Start with 2 flanges on the floor. I decided to paint the flanges to match the grey industrial look of the pipe and we also cut a perfect piece of cork to place under the flange so it would not ruin our hardwood floors. You will also want to wipe down all of your pipe before handling it, because it is covered in a greasy residue.
6. After you have reached your desired length with the pipe, couplings and wood, use the 2 elbow fittings, 2 short pipes and the flanges to attach the bookcase securely to the wall. Don't forget to admire the view if your Hubby is helping you.
6. Now it's time to start staging your shelves. I thought this would take me forever,but it actually just all fell into place. Next we are going to have to build complimentary ladder so we can actually reach the high shelves and if we buy anymore books we are going to have to build another bookshelf, because this one has no more room! Looking at this picture I am realizing we also might need a larger mirror. Something that is much more of a statement piece.
NOTES: I am super happy with the shelves. After the brick walls it is my favorite thing about our space. However, if I had to do over again I would make a few adjustments. I might have considered doing the version that does not require holes and each shelf has 4 flanges drilled into it. It may have been a more expensive but it would have made a sturdier shelf. Trust me the shelves we did are sturdy, meaning they definitely are not going anywhere, but when there are no books on the shelf the wood part does wobble a bit back and forth. Nothing falls off, but with the hole down the middle version there is nothing holding it completely steady. So if that is a concern for you I would opt for a different style. Try this one that I found on the Pottery Barn Blog. I wish I would have seen this one before I built mine. I probably also would have not made the 2 really tall shelves. We did a mix of 6, 8, 10, 12 and 18 inch shelves. I think we could have done without the 18 inch. Or at least only incorporated one.

The snowboarding community gathered in Mammoth Lakes on Saturday, November 14th to celebrate the life of Jeffrey Lin Anderson. On a night that would have been just 12 days following Jeff's 30th birthday, the "I AM SNOWBOARDING" art exhibit opened to the public. All featured pieces are collaborative efforts between a photographer and artist. Photos were supplied by a photographer and it was in the artist's hands from there. The artists applied various mediums in and around the photos to create truly unique works of art.

The show was nothing short of a complete success. As patrons crammed into the former location of the Unbound snowboard shop in The Village at Mammoth, they opened not only their hearts but their wallets as well. Every penny raised went directly to the JLA Memorial Fund. The JLA Memorial fund is the main backing behind the best thing to Mammoth since Jeffy himself, the amazing Volcom Brothers Skate Park.
If you missed the show it's not to late to get in on the action. The exhibit will remain open through November 29th. You can also support the cause by purchasing one of the extraordinary, limited edition prints by visiting http://www.iamJLA.org/
Immediately following the art show was the highly anticipated premiere of Mammoth Mountain's inaugural snowboard film, Hot Laps. This video was much more then a promotional vid, Hot Laps is a full blown shred flick. Much respect to Oren Tanzer and Greg Weaver for portraying not only the large and creative park features Mammoth is known for but powder footage as well. Hot Laps includes footage of Gabe Taylor and others destroying the nearby Senora Pass backcountry. There are even a few handrail shots from around the town of June Mountain. You can get your copy of Hot Laps for free in SNOWBOARDER Magazine's Superpark issue, hitting the newsstands the first week of December!
