Season 2016 for GDFC
On behalf of the Board, Members Sponsors and Supporters, I would like to congratulate Senior club Coach Aaron Cornelius and his coaching panel including Michael Styles, Tim Green, Leigh Muir and Nathan Longman and the football department for overseeing the successful completion of the home and away season as minor premiers in the Seniors and Development League (DL). This outcome although not being appropriately acknowledged with a KGV home final, sends a strong message to our September rivals that the GDFC Magpies of 2016 are building to be the best. We acknowledge the commitment of the players and congratulate them on reaching the finals.
Part of this year's Club success has been the consistent performance of our Development League team under the guidance of Clinton French, Nathan Longman and the DL support staff. Their capability and competitive spirit have provided depth and support for the Senior side.
GDFC is also playing finals in the Under 18's and the Women's League. We congratulate Bryan Free and Graham Bennetts (U/18's) and Jamie and Craig Grace (WL) the respective support staff and the players for such a strong season, which is a great statement about the strength of the Club at the moment and the future.
There will be many chances for supporters to get behind the GDFC teams over the finals including taking out a 2016/17 membership. Purchasing Club merchandise and clothing is a great way to make sure the GDFC Magpie Army is noticed wherever we play. There are also plenty of Club events listed over the next few months that can be viewed on the Club website www:glenorchymagpies.org.au
In an exciting year on field for the Club it is also worth noting our new KGV Club-rooms are now completed and will be officially opened shortly having already hosted the Black and White Ball and 2016 GDFC Past Players dinner. The Board is working closely with the Glenorchy City Council to work through the broad range of matters associated with the finalisation of the development. Congratulations must go to all parties involved. This is the biggest and most complex single project undertaken by the Club. My congratulations to all concerned
We also acknowledge and thank our long time naming rights sponsor Tony McCulloch and his team at GET REAL, major sponsors Cascade Draught, 9/11 and Warren Ross Accounting and our important and hard working volunteers and support staff.
Again best wishes to all our teams in the finals We hope the players, football staff, supporters and families enjoy the finals and get behind the 4 senior GDFC teams representing the Club and help them bring the prizes home. There are several events coming up, so check the website, notices in the Magpie Bar, Facebook and newsletter for details of events in September and October.
"Magpies always flock together"
Go Pies!!

President GDFC

The Glenorchy Magpies Foundation has been established to support the important on and off field work of the Club. Our initial project will be the finalisation and enhancement of the new clubrooms, function centre, café, and administration facility at KGV Oval. Our new home will be the most contemporary, largest community sport and recreation facility and precinct in Tasmania.
The finalisation and enhancement of the new facility at KGV will be a significant event in the club's history, the beginning of an exciting new era for our club. Our new facility will enable us to put the team in the best position to achieve sustained success and to continue to contribute to the community in a meaningful way.
We are aiming to raise $200 000 in two years.
Our fundraising project is run in partnership with the Australian Sports Foundation (ASF).The ASF provides a way for members and supporters to make a fully tax deductible donation in helping to be part of the club's future.
We are calling on all Glenorchy Magpies members and supporters to be a part of this special opportunity. After all, our history is only as good as the people who help make it.

Grècia com a víctima
Greece as victim
Ever since Greece hit the skids , we've heard a lot about what's wrong with everything Greek. Some of the accusations are true, some are false - but all of them are beside the point. Yes, there are big failings in Greece's economy, its politics and no doubt its society. But those failings aren't what caused the crisis that is tearing Greece apart , and threatens to spread across Europe.
No, the origins of this disaster lie farther north, in Brussels, Frankfurt and Berlin, where officials created a deeply -perhaps fatally- flawed monetary system, then compounded the problems of that system by substituting moralizing for analysis. And the solution to the crisis, if there is one, will have to come from the same places.
So, about those Greek failings: Greece does indeed have a lot of corruption and a lot of tax evasion, and the Greek government has had a habit of living beyond its means. Beyond that, Greek labor productivity is low by European standards - about 25 percent below the European Union average. It's worth noting, however, that labor productivity in, say, Mississippi is similarly low by U.S. standards - and by about the same margin.
On the other hand, many things you hear about Greece just aren't true. The Greeks aren't lazy - on the contrary, they work longer hours than almost anyone else in Europe, and much longer hours than the Germans in particular. Nor does Greece have a runaway welfare state, as conservatives like to claim; social expenditure as a percentage of GDP, the standard measure of the size of the welfare state, is substantially lower in Greece than in, say, Sweden or Germany, countries that have so far weathered the European crisis pretty well.
So how did Greece get into so much trouble? Blame the euro.
Fifteen years ago Greece was no paradise, but it wasn't in crisis either. Unemployment was high but not catastrophic, and the nation more or less paid its way on world markets, earning enough from exports, tourism, shipping and other sources to more or less pay for its imports.
Then Greece joined the euro, and a terrible thing happened: People started believing that it was a safe place to invest. Foreign money poured into Greece, some but not all of it financing government deficits; the economy boomed; inflation rose; and Greece became increasingly uncompetitive. To be sure , the Greeks squandered much if not most of the money that came flooding in, but then so did everyone else who got caught up in the euro bubble.
And then the bubble burst, at which point the fundamental flaws in the whole euro system became all too apparent.
Ask yourself, why does the dollar area -also known as the United States of America- more or less work, without the kind of severe regional crises now afflicting Europe? The answer is that we have a strong central government, and the activities of this government in effect provide automatic bailouts to states that get in trouble.
Consider, for example, what would be happening to Florida right now, in the aftermath of its huge housing bubble, if the state had to come up with the money for Social Security and Medicare out of its own suddenly reduced revenues. Luckily for Florida, Washington rather than Tallahassee is picking up the tab , which means that Florida is in effect receiving a bailout on a scale no European nation could dream of.
Or consider an older example, the savings and loan crisis of the 1980s, which was largely a Texas affair. Taxpayers ended up paying a huge sum to clean up the mess - but the vast majority of those taxpayers were in states other than Texas. Again, the state received an automatic bailout on a scale inconceivable in modern Europe.
So Greece, although not without sin, is mainly in trouble thanks to the arrogance of European officials, mostly from richer countries, who convinced themselves that they could make a single currency work without a single government. And these same officials have made the situation even worse by insisting, in the teeth of the evidence, that all the currency's troubles were caused by irresponsible behavior on the part of those Southern Europeans, and that everything would work out if only people were willing to suffer some more.
Which brings us to last Sunday's Greek election, which ended up settling nothing. [...] The Greeks can't solve this crisis anyway.
The only way the euro might -might- be saved is if the Germans and the European Central Bank realize that they're the ones who need to change their behavior, spending more and, yes, accepting higher inflation. If not - well, Greece will basically go down in history as the victim of other people's hubris .

Creating an install MSI file is rather simple; however there is very little documentation about it, or it's choppy and sometimes too wordy. Well, the point of this article is to show you how to create the installer application, and how to make it launch your application after it has finished installing.
The first thing you must do is add a new reference to your main project file.
Add System.Configuration.Install to your project, for some reason this has not been added automatically.
Now you must add an installer class to your main project. To do this, right click on that project, go to Add, and go to New Item…
Name it Installer Class.
Copy and paste the following code into your application. Be sure to change the application name to that of your main project, in my case it is InstallSample.exe.
Imports System Imports System.Diagnostics Imports System.Windows.Forms Imports System.Collections Imports System.ComponentModel Imports System.Configuration.Install Imports System.Reflection Imports System.IO Namespace OffLine.Installer ' Taken from:http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ ' system.configuration.configurationmanager.aspx ' Set 'RunInstaller' attribute to true. <RunInstaller(True)> _ Public Class InstallerClass Inherits System.Configuration.Install.Installer Public Sub New() MyBase.New() AddHandler Me.Committed, AddressOf MyInstaller_Committed ' Attach the 'Committed' event. ' Attach the 'Committing' event. AddHandler Me.Committing, AddressOf MyInstaller_Committing End Sub ' Event handler for 'Committing' event. Private Sub MyInstaller_Committing_ (ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As InstallEventArgs) 'Console.WriteLine(""); 'Console.WriteLine("Committing Event occurred."); 'Console.WriteLine(""); End Sub ' Event handler for 'Committed' event. Private Sub MyInstaller_Committed(ByVal sender As Object, _ ByVal e As InstallEventArgs) Try Directory.SetCurrentDirectory_ (Path.GetDirectoryName(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location)) Process.Start(Path.GetDirectoryName_ (Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location) + "\InstallSample.exe") ' Do nothing... Catch End Try End Sub ' Override the 'Install' method. Public Overloads Overrides Sub Install(ByVal savedState As IDictionary) MyBase.Install(savedState) End Sub ' Override the 'Commit' method. Public Overloads Overrides Sub Commit(ByVal savedState As IDictionary) MyBase.Commit(savedState) End Sub ' Override the 'Rollback' method. Public Overloads Overrides Sub Rollback(ByVal savedState As IDictionary) MyBase.Rollback(savedState) End Sub End Class End Namespace
using System; using System.Diagnostics; using System.Windows.Forms; using System.Collections; using System.ComponentModel; using System.Configuration.Install; using System.Reflection; using System.IO; namespace OffLine.Installer { // Taken from:http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ // system.configuration.configurationmanager.aspx // Set 'RunInstaller' attribute to true. [RunInstaller(true)] public class InstallerClass : System.Configuration.Install.Installer { public InstallerClass() : base() { // Attach the 'Committed' event. this.Committed += new InstallEventHandler(MyInstaller_Committed); // Attach the 'Committing' event. this.Committing += new InstallEventHandler(MyInstaller_Committing); } // Event handler for 'Committing' event. private void MyInstaller_Committing(object sender, InstallEventArgs e) { //Console.WriteLine(""); //Console.WriteLine("Committing Event occurred."); //Console.WriteLine(""); } // Event handler for 'Committed' event. private void MyInstaller_Committed(object sender, InstallEventArgs e) { try { Directory.SetCurrentDirectory(Path.GetDirectoryName (Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location)); Process.Start(Path.GetDirectoryName( Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location) + "\\InstallSample.exe"); } catch { // Do nothing... } } // Override the 'Install' method. public override void Install(IDictionary savedState) { base.Install(savedState); } // Override the 'Commit' method. public override void Commit(IDictionary savedState) { base.Commit(savedState); } // Override the 'Rollback' method. public override void Rollback(IDictionary savedState) { base.Rollback(savedState); } } }
After changing the project EXE file in the source code that you just pasted, be sure to recompile that project.
As you can see from the code, you added a new interface to the class that allows you to take control of the Install, Commit, Committed, and Rollback. In Committed, I am going to launch the InstallSample.exe application.
When it is time to create your install project, you will want to add a new Setup Project to your existing applications solution.
Right click on this new project, then click Add, then go to Project Output…
Select Primary Output, then click OK.
Add a shortcut in the Start Menu… Right click on the Setup Project, then go to View, and then File System…
Click on Application Folder, then right click the Primary Output file, and then go to Create Shortcut to Primary Output from InstallExample (Active):
Add a new folder to your start menu, right click on User's Programs Menu, then go to Add, and then Folder. Rename that folder to Installer Example.
Now drag that shortcut you created in the Applications Folder, to the new folder you just created:
Right click on the new solution; go to View, then Custom Actions:
Add a new custom action to the root Custom Actions node:
Double click Applications Folder:
Then click Primary output from InstallExample (Active):
Lastly, rebuild your install solution.
It is a good idea to keep an eye on the status bar, it will tell you when it is done…
Now you can test it and it should install the application. After the install process, it should run automatically.

Environmental Fact of the Day
Still unconvinced that your driving habits contribute to global warming? Americans consume more than a quarter of the world's oil but make up less than five percent of its population. Transportation accounts for more than 70 percent of the United States' oil consumption. Trucking accounts for a big chunk of that number, but non-essential individual trips do, too.

Dolphins Sign Reshad Jones
Posted By Brian Saa On Jul 13 2010 @ 3:43 pm In Miami Dolphins | No Comments
The Dolphins have signed fifth-round pick Reshad Jones to a four-year, $1.95 million contract, a small amount for such talent. The rookie will continue to compete for the open free safety position in the coming months. During the draft I had hoped the Dolphins would acquire Jones in the third round and was ecstatic when he dropped to the fifth and we got him. Once again, Mr. Parcells, you prove yourself wiser than me.
The first three draft picks for the 'Phins (Jared Odrick, Koa Misi, and John Jerry) remained unsigned. Hopefully the team provides them with adequate contracts before camp starts.

Roberts disciplined by Vale
Last Updated: 19/09/11 6:08pm
Roberts: Receives punishment
Sky Bet
Football Betting
Midfielder Gary Roberts has been suspended by League Two club Port Vale following a serious breach of club discipline.
The 24-year-old failed to attend training on Sunday before reporting in 'unfit to carry out his duties' the following day.
"I am bitterly disappointed in him," said Vale manager Micky Adams. "I have to make sure I am doing my job properly and when we have any disciplinary problems I have to quickly nip it in the bud, and I have to be strong as the club and the supporters deserve better.
"He chose not to turn up or inform anyone he wasn't coming in, what is even worse is that he reported in unfit to carry out his duties on Monday."
Roberts, currently Vale's top scorer with five goals in 11 appearances this season, has been suspended for 14 days and will miss the club's npower League Two games against Crewe and Rotherham.
He was signed by Adams in the summer of 2010 after he was sacked by previous club Rotherham.

The scorn that new BuzzFeed books editor Isaac Fitzgerald has earned with a few stray comments about how he intends use to his high-profile gig has been so severe that one almost feels sorry for him. Almost.
In aô brief itemô published early November, the Poynter foundationãs well-trafficked journalism Web site noted that Fitzgerald was now helming books coverage at that 800-pound powerhouse purveyor of celebrity screen grabs and cute animal gifs. Prior to tackling the BuzzFeed beat, he had co-founded The Rumpus, a site so rarefied that it does not bother with a Wikipedia entry, and done publicity for Dave Eggersãs McSweenyãs empire. Now, he announced, he would be returning to his first love, ãtalk[ing] about books online.ã
Poynter reported that under Fitzgerald, BuzzFeed would do book reviews with one all-important pre-determined outcome: None of them will be negative. ãWhy waste breath talking smack about something?ã he asked, explaining that you see that sort of thing ãin so many old-media-type places, the scathing takedown rip.ã
People in the ãonline books community,ã he reckoned, are not interested in the bad karma that accompanies such negativity. They understand authors have ãworked incredibly hardã on books and donãt want to disrespect their efforts by dissing the end product. He underscored this by laying down the Bambi Rule: ãIf you canãt say something nice, donãt say nothing at all.ã
Poynter suggested it should really be called the Thumper Rule, since the words were spoken by Disneyãs cartoon rabbit, not the titular deer. But this gentle correction was nothing compared to the critical response Fitzgerald was in forãand not just at the behest of those fuddy-duddy ãold-media types.ã
Gawkerô oozed sarcasm, calling the hiring of an erstwhile publicist to run a books section ãvery nice news.ãô New Yorkerô writer Maria Bustillos announced that it was ãabsurdã for Fitzgerald to suggest that ãone should ãrespectã the authors of books by publishing only positive reviews.ã
Theô New York Timesô teased out that absurdity. ãI was quite put off by ãThe Protocols of the Elders of Zion.ã But what purpose is served by publicly finding fault with a volume that some author has worked very hard to produce, when there are many, many excellent books upon which to lavish praise?ã mocked WNYC host Bob Garfield.
To be sure Fitzgerald makes himself an easy target for the predominately East Coast publishing world. He has worked for a biker bar and at the Left Coast website AlterNet. The San Franciscan frets that his new New York colleagues donãt have enough facial hair.
To describe his love of literature, Fitzgerald has furnished this quote: ãThe best moments in reading are when you come across somethingãa thought, a feeling, a way of looking at thingsãwhich you had thought special and particular to you. And now, here it is, set down by someone else, a person you have never met, someone even who is long dead. And it is as if a hand has come out, and taken yours.ã
Itãs a perfectly lovely notion. However, at the risk of sounding like a Poynter-style scold myself, I should note that the quote comes fromô The History Boys, Alan Bennettãs theatrical paean to pederasty. Editors with any guile would steer well clear of any mention of taking anything in hand in relation to that particular play.
To be clear, thereãs nothing wrong with taking dead aim at Fitzgerald for his embrace of boosterism as criticism. If this model wins out, critics might as well put down our pens and pick up pom-poms.
However, let it be noted that Fitzgerald neither invented nor popularized the ideaãand that he is far from its most prominent advocate. He just makes an attractive whipping boy because heãs guileless and because he works for BuzzFeed, a site that doesnãt get much respect from the well-respected.
In truth, Fitzgeraldãs appointment only caps a particularly crappy year in American letters. When jilted novelist Heidi Julavits co-founded the journalô The Believerô in 2003 toô combat ãsnarkãô and sing only sweet songs about literature, it was a curious and controversial aberration. A decade later, this approach has wormed its way much closer to the critical consensus about criticism. Letãs roll the tape on the critical lowlights of this mercifully expiring year:
*ô Former ãhatchet jobã criticsô Lee Siegelô andô Alexander Nazaryaô both published mea culpas for much of their negative book reviewing.
*ô The LA Review of Books, arguably the biggest American literary effort launched in recent years, admitted it has an official policy against running negative reviews of an authorãs first book. Editor Evan Kindley tweeted that the Reviewãs approach to poor freshman efforts was to ãignore them, or kill the review.ã
*ô Slate felt it necessary to run an essay pointing out, ãJust because you donãt like someoneãs criticism doesnãt mean that theyãreô ãshamingã you.ã
Several venues, from theô New Republicô to theô American Conservativeô to the blog of criticô D.G. Myers, ran defenses of criticism against the onslaught of publicists and niceness. The defenses were full of reason and earnestness and seemed ultimately futile. A few critics understood this. Myers related this cynical lesson from the Elwood P. Dowd School of Life: ãFor years I was smart. I recommend pleasant.ã
The only thing BuzzFeed seems likely to add to this new non-critical consensus is the picturesãclickable slideshows being the siteãs best-known stock in trade. And honestly, that might be an improvement. If weãre to swap cheerleading for criticism, it might as well look pretty.

Those are some nice scales and liners... But why you gotta hate on the Spetsnaz shovel?
I'm shipping these scales to the Ukraine. Note the liners in the colors of the Ukrainian flag. This guy is going to be the envy of his commrades as he struts around with his American knife and patriotic scales, while his buddies are running around weilding a soviet era spetsnaz shovel with sharpened edges.

I've been so frustrated with not being able to come up with good layouts, I want mine to look as good as the designers, but I'm not really all that artistic. So I "scraplifted" and copied a layout that used the kit I wanted to use. The flowers don't really go with the whole boy-motorcycle theme, but I like the colors and it turned out way better than the one I did completely on my own. At least, when I shrunk it down to the size of a stamp it looked okay, and I think I read somewhere on these boards that that was a good way to check your finished layout.
The original layout I used for inspiration is at Moments, by Angie Briggs
I used the SG Old Friends Kit.
Beautiful job - I love the clustering and the tattered mat.
Sometimes you just need some inspiration! I think you have done a wonderful job here, and I think the flowers are a nice contrast to the motorcycle picture.
Looks great! Scraplifting is a great way to get the creative juices flowing. You've done a great job on this page!
Oh my gosh, thanks for all the encouragement!
I tlooks great ... I think the flowers go very well..it gives it an artistic feeling. I know it's frustrating sometimes coming up with a LO and it seems like everyone else's looks better than yours...but one day I was looking through the gallery and I saw someone's signature .... I don't know who it was sorry ....but it said something like to be creative you have to let go of the fear of being wrong ... and I thounght of that and it made e feel much better about my LO and much more confident ....I entered in the Feb contest ... I know I won't win...but I feel really good about what I created. One day someone (won't say names) might scraplift your LO.
I know this LO is over a year old, but I am only looking at it now. I love it. My daughter wont let me use flowers for the boys, but I can not see the reason why. Flowers always just finish off a LO. Really pretty.

This is quite a sweet film with a lovely message about choosing to be yourself, no matter what hovers in your past. One thing you can say for this animation, it is certainly star-studded and they all give terrific performances. Like so many action sequences these days the ones in Kung Fu Panda 2 are impressionistic - there's so much going on it's impossible to pin individual actions down, they are just chaotic melees. It doesn't soar like the best of animation these days but it's an entertainment, particularly for the younger set. At The Movies Copyright ABC

News Release
New York Firm Recalls Frozen Mini Quesadilla, Pizza, Cheese Steak and Other Snack Products Due To Possible E. Coli O121 Contamination
Congressional and Public Affairs
Richard J. McIntire (202) 720-9113
For FDA inquiries, contact:
Patricia El-Hinnawy (301) 796-4763
WASHINGTON, March 28, 2013 - Rich Products Corporation, a Buffalo, NY firm, is recalling approximately 196,222 pounds of frozen chicken quesadilla and various other heat treated, not fully cooked frozen mini meals and snack items because they may be contaminated with E. coli O121, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced today.
The following products are subject to FSIS recall: [View Labels (PDF Only)]
- 7.2-oz. cartons of Farm Rich mini pizza slices with cheese pepperoni and sauce in pizza dough, UPC code 041322376909 with a best by date of May 15 or May 16, 2014.
- 22-oz. cartons of Farm Rich mini pizza slices with cheese pepperoni and sauce in pizza dough, UPC code 041322356437 with a best by date of May 15 or May 16, 2014.
- 18-oz. bags of Farm Rich mini quesadillas with cheese, grilled white meat chicken in a crispy crust, UPC code 041322356352 with a best by date of May 14, 2014.
- 21-oz. bags of Farm Rich philly cheese steaks with cheese, beef & onions in a crispy crust, UPC code 041322356345 with a best by date of May 13, 2014.
Each product package above contains the establishment number "EST. 27232" or "P-27233" inside the USDA mark of inspection.
In addition, the following products, which fall under FDA jurisdiction, are also being recalled. FSIS is issuing this news release to make the public aware that these products are also considered potentially adulterated and should be properly discarded or destroyed.
- 22-oz. cartons of Farm Rich mozzarella bites in a pizzeria style crust, UPC code 041322374431 with a best by date of May 19, 2014.
- 7-oz. cartons of Farm Rich mozzarella bites in a pizzeria style crust, UPC code 041322376916 with a best by date of May 19, 2014.
- 22-oz. bags of Market Day Mozzarella Bites, UPC code 041322804358 with a best by date of May 12, 2014.
The products subject to recall were produced between Nov. 12, 2012 and Nov. 19, 2012 then distributed for retail sale nationwide. FSIS and the establishment are concerned that some product may be present in household freezers.
FSIS was notified of a multistate investigation of E. coli O121 illnesses on March 19, 2013. Food samples were collected from an ill individual in New York as part of this investigation, and tested by the New York State Department of Health Wadsworth Laboratory. At present, the cluster includes 24 cases in 15 states. A sample of a Farm Rich frozen chicken mini quesadilla product from a New York case tested positive for the outbreak strain of E. coli O121. Eight cases in Michigan, Mississippi, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Virginia report consuming Farm Rich products. FSIS is continuing to work with federal and state public health partners on this investigation, including the New York State Department of Health, New York State Department of Agriculture & Markets, Food and Drug Administration, and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks to ensure that steps are taken to make certain that the product is no longer available to consumers. When available, the retail distribution list(s) will be posted on the FSIS website at: www.fsis.usda.gov/FSIS_Recalls/Open_Federal_Cases/index.asp .
Many clinical laboratories do not test for non-O157 Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC), such as STEC O26, O103, O45, O111, O121 or O145 because it is harder to identify. Infection with E. coli O121 can result in dehydration, bloody diarrhea and abdominal cramps 2-8 days (3-4 days, on average) after exposure to the organism. While most people recover within a week, some develop a type of kidney failure called HUS, Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome. This condition can occur among persons of any age but is most common in children under 5-years old and older adults. Symptoms of HUS may include fever, abdominal pain, pale skin tone, fatigue, small, unexplained bruises or bleeding from the nose and mouth, decreased urination, and swelling. Persons who experience these symptoms should seek emergency medical care immediately.
Consumers with questions regarding the recall should contact the company's consumer line at (888) 220-5955 from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. EST Monday through Friday or visit the company website at www.farmrich.com. Media with questions regarding the recall should contact the company's vice president of communications, Dwight Gram, at (716) 878-8749.
Consumers with food safety questions can "Ask Karen," the FSIS virtual representative available 24 hours a day at AskKaren.gov or via smartphone at m.askkaren.gov. "Ask Karen" live chat services are available Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. ET. The toll-free USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline 1-888-MPHotline (1-888-674-6854) is available in English and Spanish and can be reached from l0 a.m. to 4 p.m. (Eastern Time) Monday through Friday. Recorded food safety messages are available 24 hours a day. The online Electronic Consumer Complaint Monitoring System can be accessed 24 hours a day at: www.fsis.usda.gov/FSIS_Recalls/Problems_With_Food_Products/index.asp.

Everyone Needs Their Own Space
At least once a day at work I encounter a patient who needs to, but can't be confined away from its owner. Sometimes, dogs need to be confined because they are aggressive toward unfamiliar people and can't interact with them. Others are destroying the owner's home when left alone. Some dogs are not used to the new baby and are not ready to interact with the little one yet. Some of these dogs were never trained as puppies to accept confinement and appreciate alone time. Others were not able to be confined as puppies because they reacted so severely that the owner just gave up. Still others have made a negative association with the crate.
Confinement training is a necessary skill for any puppy. Confinement training teaches your dog that she can be away from you and it doesn't have to be stressful — it can even be fun. This is a valuable lesson for your pup. We teach our kids these kinds of lessons all the time, don't we? (I am ashamed to admit, but it was easier for my daughter to accept being away from me at school than it was for me to accept it!)
There are lots of times when you might want to confine your puppy. You might confine her to keep her safe until you know that she will not hurt herself when she is alone; to prepare her for stays at the veterinarian's office; to housetrain her; to keep her from escaping while someone is working in your home; and to travel by plane, train and automobile in safety and comfort. Confinement areas, whether they be crates, travel bags or exercise pens, give your dog a cozy place of her own to enjoy her chew bones and other goodies without anyone bothering her. Shouldn't we all be so lucky to have a place which means peace and quiet?
The area that you choose to confine your dog is not as important as what you do to help your dog enjoy being there. Start by feeding your pup her meals in her confinement space so that she understands that good things happen there. Scatter treats in that area each day so that when she wanders into that space she will get a wonderful surprise. Give her any new toys, bones or chewies in that space as well. Make it so everything good comes from her special place.
Once daily, confine your dog to her special area for a couple of minutes with something great like a food toy stuffed with canned food when you are home. This will help her to understand that the confinement area is not always associated with your departure. If she barks for a short period of time, completely ignore her. Don't call out to her to comfort her or yell at her to punish her. Just ignore her. If she barks for more than ten minutes and you left her with something incredible to chew on, she may have "Confinement Anxiety."
Some puppies cannot be crated or even confined. This problem is called Confinement Anxiety or Barrier Frustration. Sometimes it is difficult to distinguish the pups that have learned that the crate is a bad place because it is associated with a traumatic event like the owner's departure or a thunderstorm from the pups that have Confinement Anxiety. Dogs with Confinement Anxiety exhibit panic when confined starting in puppyhood. They don't just bark for attention, they cry for hours, paw at the crate and salivate all over themselves. For these dogs, a larger confinement area closed off with a baby gate instead of a closed door is a good place to start. These puppies need lots of rewards for accepting confinement without the owner for slowly increasing lengths of time. Then, as the puppy becomes conditioned to stay in her place, the space can be made smaller and smaller. Realistically, most of these dogs will not ever be able to be crated, but they can be confined happily.
Confinement is not cruel; it is a gift to your dog. It is the gift of independence and security, the understanding that she will be OK even if she is not with you.

This is another excellent example of why dogs need constant training and attention.
You have to wonder how many puppies are confined without any positive reinforcement and end up with lifelong problems. -
You know, I am so happy that you are here. How can we get the word out that board certified veterinary behaviorist's are available for those dogs that cant seem behave or be comfortable like other dogs?
I read about many rescue groups having problems with dogs but most still seem un-aware of this fairly new field.
As you know on a few TV shows there are trainers that teach and show people any dog behavior can be fixed.
This is simply not true, sometimes a dog that has a problem cannot be completely "cured" but we can learn how to manage the enviornment.
As you know, my Molly gets hysterical around other dogs. I was blessed enough to learn that it may be beyond her control and that I can learn to manage her, to protect her and to love her even though she is a bit cuckoo.
Imagine if I were told that it is my fault or even worse Molly's fault that she has not learned to be calm and friendly around other dogs. Well a dog that does not want to learn would get the needle...in many cases.
Knowing that there are limits and that some dogs have problems with things that might not effect other dogs takes a lot of pressure off and helps both the dog and the owner to learn other ways to accomplish a goal.
Some of these problems can take on a very serious nature but knowing the limits of what the dog and the owner can accomplish is the first step in forming a plan that benefits all concerned. -
Thank you for the kind words!
I encounter the same culture that you are referring to when I see patients. The owners are often told that the dog's behavior is their fault. But, it doesn't make sense to me. They have raised dogs before in most cases, sometimes for 30 years they have had dogs and they have treated them the same. Yet, this particular individual dog is behaving anxiously or aggressively. How can it be the owner? Yes, what we do contributes sometimes (not all of the time by any means), but it is very rare that a dog who gets into my office is there because their owner did something wrong. I am tired of people being blamed for what is not their fault. Lets focus on solutions. -
I have a 4 month old female Germ Shep, she eats in her crate (with the door open), she will go into her crate to retrieve toys, treats, etc, but she does not like to be confined to her crate. For the past 4wks we have been only confinig her to her crate when we are home. She has a special chew bone I give her in there. As long as I am in the room sitting on a chair she is OK & will sleep or chew the bone, but if I am not in the room she will whine, bark,paw at the crate and salivate all over herself. We are up to leaving in her crate for 1 hr when we are home, but only if we are in the same room as the crate is she OK with it. I understand she may never like the crate, but what about when we need to take a vacation & have to take her to the kennel? How does that work if a dog never likes a crate? I have a 4yr old Germ Shep & a 5yr old Puggle. They both like their crates.
Your pup may have a problem with separation from you, not the crate. It sounds like that is the case here. Some dogs don't ever like the crate. For those dogs, they can be boarded in cage less facilities or they can have a pet sitter when the owner is out of town.
Please search our purely puppy archives regarding a blog that I wrote on Separation Anxiety earlier in the year. It can help you with what your dog is going through.

"The BoardDocs process saves time and money. Their new products make the process of putting together the board agenda even less time consuming, allowing us to focus on our other duties. The board meeting of tomorrow!"
– Lisa Matthews Administrative Assistant to the CEO, Cleveland Metropolitan School District, OH
Matthew Mοllica brings more than 15 years of senior Web applications development experience to Emerald Data Solutions. His expertise includes software development for national and internationally acclaimed organizations, including Cisco, 3Com, Hewlett Packard, McAfee, and the Massachusetts Department of Public Health, to name a few.
Mr. Mοllica has created leading-edge content management systems, event management systems, Web portals and publishing wizards. His expert level programming skills include cross-browser development in HTML, CSS, AJAX and rich content, as well as extensive back-end logic design. Additionally, he has senior level experience with server administration, Web analytics, email marketing, and Linux/Unix/Macintosh.
For Cisco, Mr. Mοllica created a worldwide events management system, which allowed the Company to manage their conferences online, including customer registration and event evaluation. Cisco was also able to use the system for extensive event reporting.
His work with 3Com began in the mid-90s. After 3Com acquired a small networking company where Mr. Mοllica was employed, they hired him as a senior consultant - a relationship that spanned more than a decade. There, he developed both small applications and global systems for 3Com, including the 3Com Partners Program, in which Mr. Mοllica created a way for non-developers to manage content on the Web. Mr. Mοllica also developed powerful applications for the program, a complex system that still exists today and boasts hundreds of thousands of users. Global in scope, the solution includes Web site portals for different regions of the world, in multiple languages.
Additionally, Mr. Mοllica created a dynamic database for 3Com that tracked competitor information. The application was implemented when the first wireless Palm Pilots were introduced in the US market, enabling 3Com sales force to access the database remotely to research and deliver competitive advantages while in the field.
For Hewlett Packard, Mr. Mοllica developed multiple customer service-based applications, and for McAfee, he created a series of applications that allowed clients to customize and place orders for print ads and collateral materials online. Mr. Mοllica's work for the Massachusetts Department of Public Health included developing a database management system for the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) Nutrition Program, an initiative that provides nutrition and health education, healthy food and other services free of charge to low-income Massachusetts families.
For his work on the 3Com Partners Program, Mr. Mοllica's team received the prestigious IBM Lotus Beacon Award for "Excellence in Partnering", a recognition that is given once a year to IBM business partners worldwide for innovation and quality in applying IBM technologies and services.

Recent claims by food manufacturers that the use of corn in ethanol production is driving up food costs have prompted a renewed round of criticism of the practice. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack addressed the issue during a news conference that followed his appearance at this year's Commodity Classic in Tampa. Vilsack says oil and natural gas and alternative sources all have a role to play in providing the nation's energy needs.

[A man] drowned in a shallow boating pond in his local park, after suffering an epileptic seizure while feeding swans. A passer-by (a woman who was in charge of a small child so did not dare enter the pond) called the emergency services. But the first firemen to show up announced that they only had Level One training, for ankle-deep water, and needed to wait for a specialist team with Level Two training for chest-deep water.Remember when "Anarchy in the UK" sounded like a threat rather than a suggestion for improvement?
Sorry Folks, Nothing We Can Do

The only charitable way I can explain this is that the water was deep, and none of the adults in this scenario know how to swim.

I have an opinion about that.
- Assistant Village Idiot said...
I work for a government hospital. We frequently get sued. If you go against protocol, you are hung out to dry.
Therefore, your internal moral drive must be strong enough that you will risk not only physical harm, but financial ruin if you screw it up.
I have confidence I would do the right thing in this instance, because I have in similar situations. But I twinge, wince, and cower as I do. It's easy to do the right thing in the movies. - 9:44 PM
- BillT said...
Level One training is required to perform a rescue in *ankle-deep* water?!?
Adolph is kicking himself for not waiting long enough... - 1:07 AM
That's what you get when you let bureaucrats make the rules. The folks doing the rescuing are just doing their job, and following their rules. Breaking the rules means trying to find another way to feed your own kids and it's just not worth it to most folks. Besides "it's not safe". They've been told so.
William sends.
(Also remember that their most adventurous blood either came to The States or was killed off in The Wars.) - 12:09 PM
Charity in this case requires the facts to be different. The water was not even waist deep, there was no current, nor (apparently) was the footing treacherous. This was bureaucratic thinking preventing what should have been a zero effort rescue. Two people, TWO were stopped by "authorities" on site from "taking the risk" to save the man. I understand (somewhat) the motivation that you'll get hung out to dry by your bureaucrat supervisors if you get sued (which is why there NEEDS to be "Good Samaritan" laws protecting such acts). But when someone decides they'll take that risk, to STOP them from doing so borders on criminal to my mind.
- Texan99 said...
I never like to read about inept rescuers who just added to the mortality count by going impulsively into unreasonably dangerous situations, but this was ridiculous. There's only one proper response to bureaucratic idiocy of this sort, and that's to defy it often and in great numbers, and throw the bums out of office who perpetuate it.
Agreed, but we need to start here. Most days at work those in healthcare, Fire/Rescue, and LE face that same choice. Violate Rule X in order to do what's right,and risk getting hung out to dry, or obey all the rules and not meet our ethical standards. It's not good, yet it Is. I will spare the hall my personal beliefs as to why (the discussion really needs a good beer anyway).
William sends. - 1:02 PM
- Texan99 said...
Oh, I agree. Our fire department was called out a few years ago for a possible drowning in the bay. The sheriff's deputies categorically refused to set foot in the shallow water where she was floating. Now, it turned out she was dead as Queen Anne before anyone even got there, so it wouldn't have mattered if the deputies hadn't had official restrictions placed on them, but in any case the local volunteer firemen (I was not there) felt no such compunction. Fire us? Hey, go ahead, buddy! And while you're at it, think about how you plan on stopping us in the meantime.
There's a lot to be said for arranging things so that we're as free as possible to say "no." It's not an approach that will help many people under current circumstances. Nevertheless, civil disobedience is an honorable and indispensable response to this kind of idiocy. - 4:43 PM

Good point, T99. As your example suggests, it's also good to be as free as possible to say "Yes, I will."
- Texan99 said...
Yes, that's a better way to put it!
- Jason said...
Surely you pulled this from the Onion.
It kind of reminds me of that ridiculous house fire over there a few years back. The firefighters and police showed great bravery in the line of duty. They fought and pushed and prevented neighborhood onlookers from saving a mother and her children from burning alive.
They burned alive. Not an ounce of water was spent. But at least anarchy wasn't unleashed. - 5:35 PM

First of all, for a staff member, I would suggest BB to rename their "support" page (above all: "contact us"), as there is NO possibility to contact them directly?!
Ok, I got a problem with NFC on the Q10 (softwareversion: 10.1.0.4181). If I go to settings -> NFC and switch it on nothing happens (it shows as switched on). If I want to tap it with a NFC headset (Jabra) nothing happens as well.
If I press "back" (connections overview) it even shows the NFC connection to be switched off. That's a little bit weird. Bluetooth is working just fine though...
Appreciate you help!
Hey BBQ1086,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Thanks for the question.
Was NFC working when you first received the BlackBerry Q10? Also have you tried sending a file or pair up with a different NFC device?
Also you can reach out to us at anytime through @BlackBerryHelp on Twitter or contact us at 1-877-255-2377 (there is a charge per incident). Or contact your network service provider and ask to be transferred to BlackBerry which would be free.
I look forward to your reply.
Come follow your BlackBerry Technical Team on Twitter! @BlackBerryHelp

I have the exact issue.. and I dont use NFC much so I can not tell you if it worked prior to the upgrade because I have only had the phone a little over a week... BUT my bold had NFC and even NOW with it no longer connected to the network... my bold NFC turns on and lets me play musice thru NFC to a speaker...
I can not get the NFC to work on my new Q10 with the updated software and my carrier supports it...
I have rebooted and no change,,,

NFC does work with the Q10 .. but I would not call it easy to use. Check out this blog and follow the link from there to smart tags.
Enabling NFC only enables the phone to scan for NFC signals. Finding another phone or NFC terminal is easy since they are self-powered but tags are more difficult. An NFC tag must drain some power from the phone while the phone must minimized battery drain. The result is low sensitivity.
The best spot for NFC read/write is on the back side near the volume controls. Good luck.
Sorry guys, I did not write back to you, but the problem solved itself . I just switched the phone off that day (like every day) I wrote in here. The next day I gave it another try and it just worked fine. No problem at all to pair it with the headset since then.
But I still don't know why Bluetooth gets automatically enabled, too? I thought that was the advantage of NFC over Bluetooth (less energy consumption)..

There may be many bluetooth devices in your vicinity and you would typically need to register a device with an app in order to use it. So some vendors stick an NFC tag on a bluetooth device as a convenience. It is supposed to register the device so you don't need the tedium each time you use it.
Some people use NFC tags in their homes and cars so they can quickly configure the smartphone for each environment.
Ah, ok, thanks for the info!

Just a couple days ago it was rumored that Alex Rodriguez and Bethenny Frankel were stepping out on the town together. Now it just seems like they are on the outs or actually never really in. Gatecrasher reports:
"Less than a day after the Yankee slugger squired the "Real Housewives of New York" star around Miami after a chance encounter at a local hotel, A-Rod was seen canoodling poolside with a "trashy blond girl," a spy says.
"Alex and this girl were laying outside at the Delano, soaking up some sun," our source reveals. "She's definitely got the stripper look A-Rod seems to gravitate toward."
Well glad to see Alex hasn't changed. He really is a serial dater and is probably better off being single. At least the man is a gentleman on dates.
"Alex wanted to show her some of his Latin roots, something (ex-wife Cynthia) hated doing. So he took Bethenny to a Latin steakhouse in Coral Gables. It was very romantic," our snitch shares.
But not romantic enough. "He dropped her off like a gentleman after the date, but they didn't tear up the clubs the way Alex likes to," says another insider. "And they definitely didn't have sex."
I was really hoping this would work out and Rodriguez would show up on a couple episodes of "The Real Housewives" talking to Ramona or Jill. Yes I do watch the show. It is a guilty pleasure of mine.

Tutorial Series | Goya Framework |
Previous | C++, Qt, Model/View Qt Framework, KDE4 development environment |
What's Next | n/a |
Further Reading | n/a |
We are developing some component of our application using Model/View (check prerequisites). At some point on our development, we discover that we actually want to add widgets to our delegate, but the Model/View framework does not provide a powerful and integrated way of doing so. Here is where Goya comes to help out for this task.
We could say Goya is a layer between the view and your delegate that draws widgets with the needed options and that seem to behave as if they were real widgets, but they are fake widgets after all.
Goya is so nice mainly because it integrates pretty well with the Model/View design, and uses the Qt powerful signals and slots. Goya widgets will emit signals when something have happened to them, so you will be able to connect those signals to your app slots, and do fancy stuff without complex stuff.
This example consists on a single window that will contain a list view. There will be pushbuttons only in the odd rows.
// Basic Goya includes
// Basic Qt includes
// Basic KDE includes
// We define the model "MyModel" as a QStringListModel. In this very simple // example, the class will only return strings, and the necessary widgets. class MyModel
: public QStringListModel
MyModel(QObject *parent = 0) : QStringListModel(parent) { // We create a Goya pushbutton, this pushbutton will be shared by all // rows using it, so the memory impact for 1000 rows is the same as for // 1 row. Since all our rows will show the same information (that // meaning the pushbutton will show always "More information") we // initialize the values here, and all rows will reuse them. In a // slightly more complex example we can later see how to handle this // when rows want for instance a different text for the pushbutton, or // a different icon. button = new Goya::PushButton(0);
button->setText("More Information"); button->setIcon(KIcon("help-about")); button->setIconSize(QSize(16, 16));
// Goya is able to "eat events". This means that the events that you // specify here won't be forwarded to the view. This is pretty helpful // because when you click on a button that is in a non-selected row // and the MouseButtonPress eat is enabled, the unselected row won't be // selected, because the button receives that event, and "eats" it. button->setEatEvents(QEvent::MouseButtonPress); button->setEatEvents(QEvent::MouseButtonRelease); button->setEatEvents(QEvent::MouseButtonDblClick);
// We would like to connect to the clicked signal of the pushbutton. connect(button, SIGNAL(clicked(QModelIndex,const Goya::PushButton*)), this, SLOT(slotClicked(QModelIndex))); }
virtual ~MyModel() { delete button; }
virtual QVariant data(const QModelIndex &index, int role) const { // Goya when asking for widgets asks with role WidgetRole. We teach // our model on what to do on this case. In this particular model, we // will return an empty widget list for odd rows, and a single widget // (our pushbutton) for even rows. // If the role that we were asked for is not the WidgetRole, we just // expect QStringListModel to do the right thing. if (role == Goya::WidgetRole) { if (index.row() % 2) return GOYA_EMPTY_WIDGET_LIST;
return GOYA_WIDGET_LIST(button); }
return QStringListModel::data(index, role); }
Goya::PushButton *button;
private Q_SLOTS:
// This slot will be triggered when our pushbutton has been clicked. Note // that the signal has an index and even a Goya::PushButton* parameters. // In this case only with the index we are OK. On the messagebox we notify // the user which row button was clicked. void slotClicked(const QModelIndex &index) { KMessageBox::information(0, "More information clicked on row " + QString::number(index.row() + 1), "Button clicked"); }
// This is our delegate. It will perform custom painting, but this a very // important part with Goya integration. The most important thing here is that // this delegate inherits Goya::Canvas, what inherits QAbstractItemDelegate. class MyDelegate
: public Goya::Canvas
{ public:
MyDelegate(QAbstractItemView *itemView, QObject *parent = 0) : Canvas(itemView, parent) { }
virtual ~MyDelegate() { }
// Goya asks for the position of widgets. In this method you should specify // where do you want widget to be placed. In a slightly more complex example // we will see later that you can also specify your position not only in // absolute terms, but relative to other Goya widgets. QPoint widgetPosition(Goya::Widget *widget, const QStyleOption *option, const QModelIndex &index) const { return QPoint(option->fontMetrics.height(), option->fontMetrics.height()); }
void paint(QPainter *painter, const QStyleOptionViewItem &option, const QModelIndex &index) const { if (option.state & QStyle::State_Selected) { painter->fillRect(option.rect, option.palette.highlight()); }
if (option.state & QStyle::State_Selected) { painter->setPen(QPen(option.palette.highlightedText().color())); }
painter->drawText(option.fontMetrics.height() + option.rect.left(), option.fontMetrics.height() * 3 + Canvas::sizeHint(option, index).height() + option.rect.top(), QString("This is the index in row number ") + QString::number(index.row() + 1));
Canvas::paint(painter, option, index); }
QSize sizeHint(const QStyleOptionViewItem &option, const QModelIndex &index) const { Q_UNUSED(option); Q_UNUSED(index);
QSize size = Canvas::sizeHint(option, index);
size.setWidth(size.width() + option.fontMetrics.height() * 4); size.setHeight(size.height() + option.fontMetrics.height() * 4);
return size; }

Description: Michael Felgate, an elegant, debonair Englishman who runs an auction house in New York, is head-over-heels in love for the first time in his life. After only three months of dating his beautiful girlfriend Gina, Michael gathers up his courage and proposes marriage. But, to Michael's shock and chagrin, Gina declares that, though she loves Michael very much, she can never marry him. Michael pursues Gina to her father Frank's restaurant in Little Italy, where Michael introduces himself to a tight-knit and tight-lipped group of Italian-American men who treat Frank with more than the usual respect. As Frank welcomes his potential son-in-law with open arms, Michael begins to realize that by marrying Gina, he may not just become a member of her family -- he may become a member of The Family. And Gina refuses to have another of her boyfriends become corrupted and embroiled in her family's gangster life. So, to win the hand of the woman he loves, Michael bravely embarks on a mission to thwart the intentions of The Mob. Soon, however, thanks to Gina's charming father, Michael inadvertently launders money through his auction house, becomes an accessory to murder and masquerades in certain New York circles as a tough wiseguy from Kansas City: the notorious Mickey Blue Eyes.

'Survivor' Contestant Caleb Bankston Killed In Train Accident
Very sad news. Survivor contestant, Caleb Bankston, who competed alongside his fiancé Colton Cumbie on the program, was killed on Tuesday.
Caleb Bankston, who competed on Survivor: Blood vs. Water, died when the train he was on derailed on Tuesday, PEOPLE has confirmed through multiple sources.
Bankston, 26, worked at the Alabama Warrior Railway in Birmingham. He competed on Survivor: Blood vs. Water in 2013 alongside his fiancé, Colton Cumbie, ending the game in ninth place.
News of the accident has sent shockwaves through the Survivor community.
"Caleb was an amazing man and friend," fellow contestant Aras Baskauskas tells PEOPLE. "One of the sweetest and most sincere humans I've ever come across. I am gutted by his loss. My thoughts and prayers are with his family."
We're sending our condolences to his friends, family, and fans.
FAT FUCK! He would have died in a few years from heart disease anyways.
Good riddance!
No offense to Caleb's family, but shouldn't we also be hearing about any other victims as well? Just because someone's a celebrity doesn't make other people's losses any less important. Let's be a little classier.
Other news magazines who report more generalized news topics are indeed covering the other victims. Instinct is a gay men's magazine and, as such, looks for and publishes articles of particular interest to the gay (men's) community. Because of this couple's national celebrity, yes, their particular story is more appropriate for this magazine. That is really how most magazines operate, so I have to disagree with your contention of lack of class here; I think you're misunderstanding what tends to fuel story selection guidelines in terms of target audiences. But, I have indeed found more information on more generalized news sites about the other victims, so it's out there if you look for it.
First off...I am so deeply sorry for your loss. I lost my partner last July 25th after 26 years together. The grief process isn't easy and it isn't fast. Surround yourself with true friends and you'll make it through. Tomorrow is a new day and yesterday will always be a part of who you are in the here and now. Much love being sent your way...XOXO. Jon
I tragically lost my partner nearly a year ago in July and its absolutely devastating and still is to this day. My heart goes out to the surviving partner. I know your hurt and pain. I pray he finds peace and comfort.
Jon...our stories are so similar. I lost my partner of 26 years on July 25, 2013. Each day is a challenge...I feel your pain too.
Always seem the good go first. We should all follow his example and love of life. Prayers to his partner and family.
Wow :( He was such a sweet guy. R.I.P Caleb and my heart goes out to Colton. Hope God gives him the strength to carry on.

Glutamine/asparagine (Q/N)-rich domains have a high propensity to form self-propagating amyloid fibrils. This phenomenon underlies both prion-based inheritance in yeast and aggregation of a number of proteins involved in human neurodegenerative diseases. To examine the prevalence of this phenomenon, complete proteomic sequences of 31 organisms and several incomplete proteomic sequences were examined for Q/N-rich regions. We found that Q/N-rich regions are essentially absent from the thermophilic bacterial and archaeal proteomes. Moreover, the average Q/N content of the proteins in these organisms is markedly lower than in mesophilic bacteria and eukaryotes. Mesophilic bacterial proteomes contain a small number (0-4) of proteins with Q/N-rich regions. Remarkably, Q/N-rich domains are found in a much larger number of eukaryotic proteins (107-472 per proteome) with diverse biochemical functions. Analyses of these regions argue they have been evolutionarily selected perhaps as modular "polar zipper" protein-protein interaction domains. These data also provide a large pool of potential novel prion-forming proteins, two of which have recently been shown to behave as prions in yeast, thus suggesting that aggregation or prion-like regulation of protein function may be a normal regulatory process for many eukaryotic proteins with a wide variety of functions.
