Oddly enough, the very same thing that can stop the heart is capable of coaxing it into beating again. Only 50mA of current needs to run through a person's body to shut down its most vital organ, yet a similar shock applied to the chest by means of a machine no larger than a laptop computer can flip a virtual switch to turn it back on. In fact, a defibrillator — that two-paddle instrument that when grasped has a tendency to cause TV doctors to melodramatically shout "Clear!" — is the only tool that can restart the heart. In the time it takes an ambulance to arrive with such an advanced medical care device, though, a shock victim can die if witnesses fail to administer the one technique that many people have a vague idea of how to perform yet often lack the confidence or formal training to use. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) won't reverse cardiac arrest, but it will prevent it from becoming a permanent condition.
"When you're doing CPR, you're more concerned with keeping the victim oxygenated until help arrives than you are in restarting the heart," says Dr. Michael Morse, an associate professor of electrical engineering at the University of San Diego and an expert witness in more than 100 electrical shock cases from Portland, Ore. to Orlando, Fla. Unlike what many movies and television shows may lead you to believe, the chest compressions associated with CPR won't force the heart to start beating again. Instead, they do the heart's job while it's temporarily sidelined, pushing blood to the brain and keeping it alive until trained medical personnel can shock the heart back into its standard electrical rhythm with a defibrillator.
The ability of an electric shock to cause damage to the human body is a function of skin resistance, voltage, the path the current travels, and to a lesser extent the frequency of the electricity. As it turns out, the type of electricity that most people come into contact with daily, albeit safely, can be the deadliest given the right circumstances. The Table above explains how much voltage, skin resistance, and resultant current is necessary to hurt the human body. Given enough moisture on the skin, a 120V, 15A 60-Hz jolt that travels through the chest cavity is sufficient to send the heart's lower chambers into a rapid unsynchronized fluttering called ventricular fibrillation, or v-fib, that renders it unable to pump blood to the rest of the body. With its usual form of transportation shut down, oxygen fails to reach the body's cells — most importantly, those that constitute the brain — and they begin to die. The medical community's best estimates offer an electrical shock victim whose heart has entered v-fib four minutes before death in the absence of medical attention.
Ironically, excessively high currents are less likely to do catastrophic damage to the heart. Such currents will cause the heart to tighten like a clenched fist — a condition called ventricular seizure — and if the victim is knocked clear of the power source, the heart can actually restart itself.
It's at that point on an imaginary risk chart where the lines representing resistance, voltage, current path, and frequency converge — coincidentally the same recipe of electricity most electrical workers are exposed to — where electricity can be the deadliest. And in those brief moments after ventricular fibrillation that are book-ended by life and death, the simple act of applying pressure to the chest in short, timed thrusts with the palms of your hands can give an otherwise helpless victim a chance at survival.
Unpredictable at best.
Electricity's behavior is bound by Kirkhoff's and Ohm's laws, but its effect on the body can never be predicted with any level of certainty. In some cases, it's possible for a worker to receive a lethal shock and appear fine for several minutes before suddenly suffering a heart attack and dying. Such instances are rare, but Morse stresses that this unpredictability is all the more reason to take any electrocution seriously and seek medical assistance even if the victim appears to be fine. "That may be the overly cautious view, but considering the fact that the only other option is death, it's a lot better to make the mistake of going to the hospital or calling an ambulance than to watch a shock victim keel over and die before help arrives."
The most common scenario, however, is instant defibrillation and collapse. Because the effects of electric shock are so similar to that of a heart attack, it can be difficult to identify what caused the victim to collapse. But because the treatment is the same in either case, it isn't necessary to worry about making such a distinction. "The heart fibrillates, the body de-oxygenates, the person collapses, and within 15 seconds they're unconscious," Morse says. "To a person who walks into the room five seconds after the shock, it appears to be a heart attack."
Electric shock may not make the victim's hair stand on end or cause them to light up and then smolder as cartoons often depict, but neither is there a special form of CPR required for treating the condition. A collapsed worker near electrical equipment is, however, an indication of shock, and in such cases the priority of the person responding to the situation should be to make sure that either the offending power source has been shut down or the victim is clear of it.
Running blindly into an energized environment to save a co-worker can only serve to double the body count, so Morse stresses caution in such situations. "The mere fact that someone has received a shock says that there is a presence of electricity," he says. "There may well be current flowing, putting you at great risk of suffering the same fate as the person who's been injured."
In the time it takes to pop a bag of popcorn, a witness to electric shock must find the victim, call 9-1-1 or instruct someone else to, determine whether it's safe to proceed with CPR, and begin chest compressions to have any chance of saving the victim. In the absence of any CPR, the American Heart Association estimates that the victim's chances of survival drop by 7% to 10% each minute, further demonstrating the importance of beginning chest compressions immediately.
Even more sobering are the statistics involving the survival rate of cardiac arrest victims. A mere 5% of people in the United States whose hearts stop beating are ever revived. Those numbers aren't narrowed to show how many incidences of electric shock end in death, but as Morse points out, the prognosis isn't good. "Even if people can get to you in a timely fashion, the probability is not in your favor," he says. "All the time I see cases involving people who have been hit by an electrical jolt, fibrillated, CPR was immediately rendered, and an ambulance was called and got there within five or 10 minutes, and the person still died."
Despite such empirical and anecdotal evidence that suggests otherwise, the rule of thumb with CPR is that it can only help. In fact, even "bad" CPR from someone who has never been formally trained can be better than standing by and doing nothing. Laura Jackson, CPR and First Aid Program Manager for the Kansas City Red Cross, says inaction can be the death knell for electric shock victims. "We try to tell people to not be afraid and to react because it's better to do something," she says. "Maybe it won't be the perfect textbook technique, but the fact that they did something may make the difference."
It used to be that short of driving the victim to the hospital yourself, you could do little more than continue chest compressions and wait for the ambulance to arrive. In recent years, however, advances in automatic heart rhythm analysis and design efficiency have made it possible to put defibrillators on the jobsite and in the hands of electrical workers who have little experience with medical devices. A smaller automated version of the defibrillators that emergency room doctors use to revive trauma patients, automatic external defibrillators (AED) serve the same function and eliminate the decision process necessary to safely shock the victim.
In lieu of the handheld paddles that emergency room defibrillators use for administering the shock, AEDs employ square adhesive electrodes connected by leads to the base unit that are applied directly to the chest of the victim. A series of prompts on the laptop computer-sized base unit will walk the user through the process that begins with testing the victim's heart to determine if it's in v-fib. If it fails to detect a cardiac rhythm that requires shock, the AED won't discharge. If the victim is in v-fib, it will administer a series of three pulses and then give the user time to reassess the victim's condition, taking user analysis out of the equation altogether. "The AED isn't like the paddles you see on TV or at a hospital that trained doctors use to determine the level of shock the person needs," Jackson says. "It has one level of electricity — 120 joules — and that's the shock that it would give every time." The shock delivered by the device actually stops the heart momentarily and gives it a chance to reset itself — in effect giving it a hard slap and yelling, "Snap out of it!"
Despite the obvious advantages of such devices, their infiltration into the workplace has been slow. An AED can cost as much as $3,000, a price that many contractors can't justify, especially if they've yet to lose a crew member to electrocution. Steps are being taken, however, to make AEDs easier to obtain. The Community Access to Emergency Defibrillation Act of 2001 became a law in June of 2002, setting aside $30 million in funding to establish public access defibrillation programs.
A lesson from a peer.
It's been 16 months since an employee of SKC Electric has missed a day of work due to a work-related injury. After three years as the director of education and safety for the independent Lenexa, Kan.-based firm, Del Cook has helped management realign the safety priorities of the firm's 200 employees. "Productivity is important, but it's not as important as getting the job done safely," he says. "We have a service to sell, and that's our electricians. If they're not working, what do we have?"
Under Cook's tenure at SKC, an electrician has yet to receive a shock of any kind, thanks in large part to the firm's strict policy against working on energized systems, yet he still insists that every employee be certified in CPR. All apprentices must have CPR training before achieving journeyman status, and in order to be considered for promotions, they must keep up their certification.
To accommodate the constantly shifting CPR certification needs of the 200 employees in his charge, Cook says he has to schedule at least one training session per month, with either the American Heart Association or the American Red Cross. The typical class size can range from 15 to 20 electricians.
Whether they're receiving their training in Kansas City or in Dayton, Ohio, where Sharon Browning, safety director for IBEW Local 82, recently updated her chapter's safety program to include CPR and AED training, the instruction that participants in the class will receive is the same. Contractors can send their employees to the local branch of the American Red Cross or American Heart Association, which both get their curriculum from the Emergency Cardiac Care Council, or pay to have an instructor certified for third-party training, as Browning and Local 82 chose to do. The Cleveland chapter has trained 140 apprentices in CPR — a requirement, just as it is for open shop electrical workers — and another 63 journeymen have taken the training this year.
Participants in an American Red Cross class will spend about six and a half hours watching videos, listening to the instructor cover things like the principles of "Check, Call, Care," which is the Red Cross' recommended process for addressing a victim of cardiac arrest, and practicing what they've learned on a mannequin. The Red Cross will travel to a work site to accommodate a class' worth of employees from one company. "We actually have a traveling classroom, so we're able to bring in equipment and offer training almost anywhere," she says.
Despite her admission that even sub-par CPR is better than nothing, Jackson is quick to point out that it's a skill that must be kept up and should be taken seriously. "If you don't take it often and neglect your training, you will forget it," she says. "There's research to indicate that you lose a lot of the knowledge you gain in a class within six months." Red Cross CPR certifications are good for one year.
Talk of requirements or Saturdays spent cooped up in a classroom blowing into the mouth of a plastic, armless mannequin is usually enough to cause most people to invent excuses like "Saturdays are when I have brunch with my mother-in-law," but Cook says most of his guys will not only eventually appreciate the class but realize they're taking it so they can keep their co-workers safe. "They may complain a little about having to come in for training on a Saturday, but when it comes down to it and they actually do it, they end up appreciating it," he says. "They're bright individuals, and they want to take care of each other."
Browning has also found that although they may enroll in the class because they have to, many of the members of Local 82 realize they're learning a skill they can use outside the workplace as well. Her staff of instructors will add training in child CPR for those who want the additional instruction. "Most of these guys are young and have kids, so they're willing to sit there for an extra few hours if it means learning how to save an infant or small child."
The simple fact is that a heart stopped by an electrical current is unlikely to restart, a sobering thought for members of a trade who deal with energized equipment on a daily basis. "The human body just doesn't respond well to electricity," says Dr. Morse. For those instances when the heart can be restarted and the victim revived, which are just as hard to predict as the effects of a shock itself, the knowledge that you can keep your co-worker alive should make all of those hours spent pushing on that plastic mannequin's chest seem worthwhile afterall.

A magnitude-6.3 earthquake struck off east coast of Honshu, Japan, on Thursday morning, the U.S. Geological Survey reported. No tsunami alert was issued.
There were no immediate reports of damage or injuries.
A day earlier, a magnitude 7.3 earthquake off Japan's northeast coast shook buildings hundreds of miles (kilometers) away in Tokyo and triggering a small tsunami, but casued no significant damage or injuries.
The 4:44 a.m. Thursday (1844 GMT Wednesday) quake was shallow, some 1.2 miles (2 kilometers) below the surface, the USGS said.
The USGS said the quake hit some 126 miles (203 kilometers) east of Sendai, in Honshu, Japan, and about 272 miles (438 kilometers) northeast of Tokyo.
Japan lies on the "Ring of Fire" — an arc of earthquake and volcanic zones that stretches around the Pacific Rim and where about 90 percent of the world's quakes occur.

I have the same comments as I did on Nov. 26th. You might ask why the same order 2 months later ... the case was not designed nor did I expect it to survive being thrown off the trunk of my car as I took a turn at 20 MPH. It did hold up well but I got a new phone so I figure I should have a new case.

This is the enterance to a special spot in Andreas Canyon, a cave which you have to swim thru to get to the other side.
Born in Los Angeles in 1955, Jagger spent much of his time in the Palm Springs area where his father was employed by Frank Sinatra. The Southern California outdoor life-style and the glamour of the entertainment world helped shape the artist's perspective. He managed to combine his dual goals of living close to the land and entertaining people in his ideal career as an artist. Jaggers paintings are a blend of fact and fantasy. He begins with what he knows best - the California Desert - and transforms that raw material into novel images that amaze and delight. His meticulous technique details every rock and pebble, cactus thorn and palm frond, giving it an intense presence. This hyper-realism makes the images seem uncanny, too...

Apple Has To Advertise That Samsung's 'Not Cool' Tablet Is No iPad Copycat
from the wow dept
The judge apparently told Apple to put a notice on its own website and in UK newspapers telling people that Samsung's Galaxy Tab -- which Apple is clearly afraid of -- isn't a copy. As you might imagine, Apple is not happy about this -- though it might as well include the stuff about Samsung's lack of coolness, if it must discuss things. Either way, Apple is protesting. According to the Bloomberg report linked above:
The notice should outline the July 9 London court decision that Samsung's Galaxy tablets don't infringe Apple's registered designs, Judge Colin Birss said. It should be posted on Apple's U.K. website for six months and published in several newspapers and magazines to correct the damaging impression the South Korea-based company was copying Apple's product, Birss said.While I agree that Apple's lawsuit was a bad idea in the first place, and that the company should just compete in the marketplace, I'm at a loss as to the "damaging impression" that this lawsuit would have for Samsung. As the judge himself noted, the iPad is seen as being really cool. And the Samsung tablet... is not. So, why would it damage Samsung's reputation to have Apple claiming that the devices were too much alike? If anything, it seems like it should help Samsung by advertising which tablet Apple thinks is most like an iPad.
The order means Apple will have to publish "an advertisement" for Samsung, and is prejudicial to the company, Richard Hacon, a lawyer representing Cupertino, California-based Apple, told the court. "No company likes to refer to a rival on its website."

Saturday, 05 January 2013 10:30 AM
BAGHDAD — The most senior member of former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein's entourage still at large has urged Sunni Muslim anti-government protesters to stand their ground until Shiite Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki is toppled.
Izzat Ibrahim al-Douri heads Saddam's Baath party, which was banned after the U.S.-led invasion in 2003 that overthrew the Sunni strongman and empowered majority Shiite Muslims.
Over the past two weeks, tens of thousands of Sunnis, some waving Saddam-era flags, have staged demonstrations in a show of anger against Maliki, whom they accuse of marginalizing their community and monopolising power.
"The people of Iraq and all its nationalist and Islamic forces support you until the realization of your just demands for the fall of the Safavid-Persian alliance," said Douri, addressing the protesters in footage broadcast on Alarabiya television.
Safavid is a reference to the ruling dynasty of Shiite Iran from the 16th to 18th centuries that at times also controlled parts of modern-day Iraq.
Since Maliki came to office in 2006, Iraq has edged closer to neighboring Iran, which wields strong influence over several Iraqi Shiite parties.
Surrounded by men in military uniform, Douri said the Baath party leadership was considering launching a campaign to "justly and decisively" punish civilians and soldiers who supported what he described as Iran's "Safavid project" for Iraq.
"It is a clear plan to destroy Iraq and annex it to Iran," he said. "We warn those traitors, agents and spies ... who support the dangerous project ... that the national resistance will confront them before Maliki and his evil alliance".
The authenticity of the video could not be verified. Douri said he was speaking from the Iraqi province of Babil.
Influential Shiite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr, a rival to Maliki who has voiced support for the Sunni rallies, said Douri and his followers were agents of the United States and Israel, and urged protesters to denounce him.
"If the government is not able to seriously and urgently capture [or kill] him, this will be our job, we the soldiers of God upon earth," he said in a statement on his website.
Douri, seldom seen since 2003, was the deputy head of Iraq's Revolutionary Command Council under Saddam, and took over the Baath Party leadership after Saddam was executed in 2006.
After the 2003 invasion, he was ranked sixth on the U.S. military's list of 55 most wanted Iraqis and a $10 million reward was offered for his capture. U.S. officials accused him of organizing the insurgency that peaked in 2005-07.
The conflict in neighboring Syria, where a Sunni-led insurgency is fighting to remove a leader backed by Shiite Iran, is whipping up sectarian tension across the region and straining a precarious political balance between Iraq's Sunni, Shiite and Kurdish factions.
That has raised concern about a relapse into intercommunal slaughter in Iraq just over a year since U.S. troops withdrew.
A car bomb parked near a vegetable and fruit market in the town of Kanaan in Diyala province killed two people on Saturday, police said, in an attack the mayor blamed on Baathists seeking to ignite sectarian strife by targeting mixed areas.
The protests in Iraq's Sunni Muslim heartland pose a new challenge to Maliki, who is already at odds with the autonomous Kurdish region in the north.
Iyad Allawi, the head of the Sunni-backed Iraqiya political bloc, on Friday called on Maliki to resign and for an interim government to be formed until early elections.
Failing that, Maliki's alliance should select an alternative prime minister and form a government that would respect the constitution, Allawi said in a statement.
"The continuation of this government will not produce anything except more crises and waste of public money."
The latest crisis gathered pace just hours after President Jalal Talabani, seen as a steadying influence On Iraq, suffered a stroke and was flown abroad for medical care.
Talabani's medical team said on Saturday the 79-year-old Kurd was responding very well to treatment and had "passed the difficult stages more quickly than expected," but gave no details about his health or whether he is able to communicate.

Polar Ice Sheets Melt Faster
Shrinkage in Greenland, Antarctica Has Sent Ocean Levels Higher, Study Says
Higher temperatures over the past two decades have caused the polar ice sheets to melt at an accelerating rate, contributing to an almost half-inch rise in global sea levels, according to the most comprehensive study done so far.
Scientists long have struggled to get a fix on whether the permanent ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica are gaining or losing ice. Past satellite-based measurements either were limited in scope or suffered from methodological inconsistencies....

Back Bay, Boston Travel Guide
Back Bay Summary
- Historic charm: ancient churches, beautiful brownstones, treelined avenues
- Great shopping, from Newbury Street boutiques to the massive Prudential Center mall
- Convenient for business travelers, from Hynes Convention Center to big hotels with lots of meeting space
- Beautiful parks: adjacent to the Public Garden and Boston Common, with ice-skating in the winter and swan boats in the summer
- Great place to watch Boston Marathon, which ends at Copley Square
- Grand, historic hotels like the Fairmont Copley Plaza and the Eliot
- Adjacent to the trendy South End, with its gays bars and chic eateries
What It's Like
The Back Bay offers a little bit of everything, from luxury shopping to historic churches to the finish line of the Boston marathon. Once a submerged swampland, it was created in the mid-1800s by filling in the tidal flats of the Charles River. Today, it's a heavily developed, upscale commercial and residential area just west of the Boston Common, the city's central park. Office workers toil away in the area's high-rise buildings, some of Boston's tallest, while business travelers convene for conferences at the Hynes Convention Center, which is connected to not one but three hotels and a two-storey shopping mall. But the area isn't all business and skyscrapers. The Back Bay also has some of the city's best shopping, gorgeous 19th-century churches, and beautiful treelined avenues. Along charming Newbury Street, upscale chain stores, boutiques, and restaurants mingle with Victorian brownstones, and even the Dunkin' Donuts strives to appear quaint. Further spending opportunities abound within the Prudential Center, a hugely popular mall at the base of a 52-story office building.
The Prudential Center towers over Copley Square, a historic plaza in the heart of the Back Bay. There, the present reflects the past, literally, as the shimmering, 60-story, I.M.-Pei-designed John Hancock Tower serves as a mirror to the Trinity Church, an ornate Neo-Romanesque structure built in the late 1800s. Across Copley Square, the stately Boston Public Library sits, further adding to the architectural splendor and making the square a lovely place to meet a friend, play boccie ball on the lawn, hit up the biweekly farmers' market, or have a picnic lunch -- all of which tourists and locals do regularly. Just west of the Back Bay, the Fenway area is home to two of the city's top museums, the Museum of Fine Arts and the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, as well as historic Fenway Park, the home of a historically cursed little baseball club called the Red Sox.
Where To Stay
The Back Bay's anachronistic charms and proximity to the Hynes Convention Center and great shopping come at a cost. Hotels tend to be pricey compared with those on the waterfront, and they can book up quickly with large groups, which can also cause great price fluctuations. The convention center is actually connected via an indoor shopping mall and skybridge to three large hotels: the Westin, the Sheraton, and the Marriott Boston Copley Place. It's convenient for conventioneers, but individual travelers can get more for their money, and fewer crowded elevators, outside of the convention center complex. The huge Fairmont Copley Plaza has a grand old lobby and all the history that goes with it; every president since Taft has stayed at the hotel. For travelers looking for more intimate accommodations, there's the lovely Eliot, which has a James-Beard-Awarding-winning chef running its restaurant and, supposedly, the distinction of being the first boutique hotel in the country. There are also more affordable boutiques like the Lenox and the Back Bay Hotel, both of which have lively bars. For those more interested in the present than the past, the recently opened W and Mandarin Oriental offer more modern style -- think clear glass, not red brick -- and great spas on-site. And, of course, the Four Seasons is always a classic. The Boston outpost of the luxury chain sits regally on the Public Garden and has a pool with great views, top service, and a lovely restaurant, making it not just one of the best hotels in the Back Bay but in the entire city.

Operation Moon Dust05/16/2013
2013 Lunabotics Team members.
When scientists devised a way to extract oxygen from moon dust a few years ago, NASA's annual Lunabotics Mining competition became the crux of the gritty matter. Through the contest, NASA challenges student engineering teams from colleges around the country to design a robot that can mine and deposit the precious powder with precision and efficiency. Enter STACEE, The University of Akron 2013 Lunabotics Team's 55-kilogram lunabot.
After a year in the making, STACEE (systematic, technical, automation, collecting, extraterrestrial, elements) is ready to roll in a sand pit May 20 to May 24 at Kennedy Space Center in Florida, where it will be expected to excavate and deposit simulated lunar sand: 10 kilograms in 10 minutes or less.
Nineteen UA students majoring in mechanical, electrical and computer engineering have worked for the past year to develop STACEE to run via remote control and, potentially, autonomously.
Team captain Ben Chaffee, a mechanical engineering major from Macedonia, says STACEE's design exudes simplicity.
Simplicity is key
"Our lunabot has only three moving parts," Chaffee says, pointing to the robot's bucket and two treads embellished with cutouts of the UA logo and mascot Zippy's silhouette. "The reason we kept the design simple was to increase STACEE's reliability. Less moving parts equals a lower chance of failure."
In addition, STACEE's "modular design allows for easy repair or replacement of parts," says Chaffee, as he pops a circuit box off of the robot's frame.
Team members had fun creating mini STACEEs in the form of LEGO kits for children.
The lunabot's built-in infrared light sensors allow it to detect and avoid obstacles such as rocks and craters. Other features, including a slightly pointed bucket to scoop up deep mounds of sand and transport the heaps with minimal dust kick-up, help give the robot its competitive edge.
STACEE has a 'mini-me'
In addition to full-size STACEE, the UA Lunabotics team created mini STACEEs in the form of LEGO kits for children. The building blocks bring Chaffee back to his own childhood, occupied for countless hours by LEGO bricks scattered about the basement floor and awaiting his two small hands to build them into creations.
Chaffee says that although he didn't have an engineer role model who left footsteps for him to follow as a child, he did have an occasional LEGO catch under his own footsteps and, consequently, catch his interest.

McGonigal: "Games Are Like Soap"
Jane McGonigal speaking at SXSW, as excerpted in amusingly out-of-context way from this report:
"Games are like soap," McGonigal said. She thinks we should have them in every building and in our pockets. "Except we're not killing germs, we're killing boredom."
The actual context is that soap has been around since the Romans, but only the hygienic awareness of last few hundred years have put it everywhere to combat disease. McGonigal sees a parallel with a ubiquitous game culture: "Why don't we have games everywhere to kill lack of engagement, anxiety, lack of confidence, depression?" And I think that's already happening in some ways, and it is valuable. Anxiety and boredom might not be fashionable conditions for society to deal with, but they're enormously important. Oh God, it's another topic from my yet-to-be-released book. (Hey, you can pre-order it on Amazon.) I wish these things came out a little faster. I spent the last year listening to game people give lectures and then saying "Yeah, I said that in my book, that ONLY MY EDITOR HAS READ." Further notes from McG's talk can be found over at Clickable Culture.

In recent years, keratins have been of significant interest to the medical community. The discovery that the diversity of the proteins can be utilized to provide additional information about the origination of carcinomas has made them popular clinical tools in cancer diagnosis. Also, genetic mutations in keratins have been identified as the cause of a variety of human disorders. The disease known as epidermolysis bullosa simplex, for example, is the result of a mutant keratin gene that causes the skin to be extremely fragile and to blister severely and recurrently. The blistering associated with this inherited disorder occurs due to the attempts of defective keratins to assemble with normal keratins in the epidermal basal cell layer, effectively disrupting the network of keratin filaments to the point of rupture.
After treatment for one hour with MitoTracker Red CMXRos in serum-based growth medium, the adherent culture of HJ1.Ov cells presented above was fixed in 50:50 methanol:acetone, permeabilized, blocked, and treated with mouse anti-cytokeratin (pan) monoclonal antibodies. The intermediate filaments were visualized with goat anti-mouse secondary antibodies (IgG) conjugated to Marina Blue, and the nuclei were counterstained with SYTOX Green. Images were recorded in grayscale with a QImaging Retiga Fast-EXi camera system coupled to an Olympus BX-51 microscope equipped with bandpass emission fluorescence filter optical blocks provided by Omega Optical. During the processing stage, individual image channels were pseudocolored with RGB values corresponding to each of the fluorophore emission spectral profiles.

Will Kosnitch was a sergeant in the U.S. Army with three tours of Iraq under his belt, a specialty as a Black Hawk mechanic, and a plan to make the military his career.
Until a bad back got in the way.
With a medical discharge in the works, Kosnitch, 35, was panicked at the prospect of looking for a job.
"I had been in Army almost 12 years; it's hard to know anything else," he told CNBC.com. "At first I thought I'd look for jobs working on aircraft, something I have experience in."
Kosnitch considered opening a bar or restaurant. "I wanted to be my own boss. I had worked hard in the Army, moving from private to sergeant; I didn't want to go back to the bottom rung on the ladder."
Then he saw an ad for Snap-on Tools, the Kenosha, Wis., company that operates 4,200 franchises worldwide — and suddenly it all came together.
"We used Snap-on in the Army, so I knew Snap-on's reputation in the field," he said. "And before the Army, I was an auto mechanic. Then I saw the deal they were giving veterans, and it was a no-brainer."
The total investment necessary to begin operation of a Snap-on standard franchise will range from $146,783 to $295,796, including inventory, according to Snap-on. The Veterans Discount provides a $20,000 discount on the initial inventory.
Kosnitch was released from the Army last July. By October, he was in his wife's hometown of Clarksville, Tenn., driving a truck full of Snap-on tools and introducing himself to customers on his route.
Snap-on Tools is one of several franchises that have been offering financial discounts and special training for veterans who are looking to transition back to civilian life.
"The franchise industry has committed to hire as employees, and recruit as owners 75,000 veterans and their spouses by 2014," said Matthew Haller, senior director of communications for the International Franchise Association.
Since January 2011, 2,007 veterans have been brought into franchises across 43 companies in its VetFran Enduring Opportunity initiative, among them Bach to Rocks, a music education program; The UPS Store; Meineke; and Sportsclips, a hair-cutting salon.
Snap-on has a secret weapon in its recruiting arsenal: Jon Rucker, a retired Air Force veteran who, as regional director of recruiting in the Atlanta area, knows a thing or two about selling a business.
As the military program manager for Snap-on, Rucker is dedicated to finding the men and women who are passionate about the product. While the common refrain about veterans is that they are a good fit for franchises because they are trained to follow a system of rules, it goes beyond that for Snap-on, said Rucker.
"There's something inherently cool about tools," said Rucker. "And in the military, if someone worked on a tank in the middle of the desert, it was quite possible they were using a Snap-on tool. Our world knows Snap-on."
That was the case with George Hamilton, a 21-year Air Force veteran who served in Operation Desert Shield, Bosnia, the Second Gulf War, and Iraq before officially retiring just last month. Hamilton, 40, spent the last two years of his time in the Air Force carefully considering his next career move.
An aircraft mechanic, he considered employment with the airlines, but his wife is an international flight attendant, and he didn't want both their paychecks to be dependent on the airline industry. Besides, he said, "I wanted to work for myself. I thought I'd make a pretty good boss."
A story in Air Force Times about franchises giving veterans incentives led him to Snap-on, and a request to ride along with a franchise owner. His due diligence paid off in an opportunity to buy a franchise near his hometown of Chicago, just as his retirement kicked in last October (he was able to leave early because of saved leave time.)
"I know tools, I know cars, and I know how to talk to mechanics," said Hamilton. "I think I would have taken this step even without the incentives, but the discount made it that much easier to make the decision."
For Kosnitch, the incentives helped, but so did the memory of how Snap-on dealt with him as a customer when he was an 18-year-old mechanic starting out.
"The thing that made me feel me most comfortable, realizing I could do this, was remembering being that guy who needed to build a set of tools," he said. "Without the Snap-on guy helping me work through a payment plan, I would never have made it as a mechanic."
Now, he gets to be that guy, riding around in a truck full of tools. It couldn't have worked out better, he said. "In the Army, I was doing something good for my country. Now, I'm building something for my family. It's a great feeling."

Here I am! Look at me! See my dress? It's by Esprit! And yes, this is in my new room and, yes, I caved and painted my walls yellow. Again. After painting them mint green. And hating it. Siiiiiiiiigh. Anyways, it's all over now, and I'm working on putting the whole mess behind me by instead focusing my powers of frustration on re-assembling my awesome second hand IKEA craigslist bed. Which came complete with about 18 missing Swedish screws. So. Much. Fun.
On a lighter note, here are some of the best presents I have received from some of the very best givers of late:
My Technicolor Dream Moose Bag, a gift from Sweden.
The most amazing vintage bowtie, a gift from Sherbet Tone.
The most perfect acorn, a gift from a tree.
P.S. Don't forget, you can indeed

DOE A to Z: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z #
For Release: October 2, 2002
Hudson County Library/Media Specialist Named
2002-03 New Jersey Teacher of the Year
When Elspeth Corrigan was an eighth-grader at Bedford Junior High School in Connecticut, she was named "Best Librarian Aide" because, in her words, she was the "best book-shelver."
Decades later, she can add "best teacher" to her list. Today, Commissioner of Education William L. Librera announced Elspeth Corrigan Moore, a librarian and media specialist at Memorial High School in West New York, Hudson County, as the 2002-2003 New Jersey State Teacher of the Year.
"Elspeth Corrigan Moore is a teacher committed to helping students on a one-to-one basis," Commissioner Librera said. "This is most exemplified in the library, where she keeps her lessons fresh and her focus on never giving up. She is an asset to her school, her local community and to the people of New Jersey."
Moore, known as Mrs. Corrigan to her students, is a 30-year veteran who remembers the name of every teacher she had from elementary school through high school. She is a woman who has successfully combined her love of reading with her love of libraries to work for 27 straight years as librarian at Memorial High School.
"The Department of Education is proud to name Mrs. Moore as Teacher of the Year," Librera said, announcing the recipient of the coveted award. "Im quite certain she, as well as the other teachers nominated for this prestigious honor, will continue to serve students as best they can, with a passion for their profession as noticeable now as it was when they first set foot in a classroom."
Mrs. Moore is a teacher who administrators, fellow teachers, students and their parents have come to expect to simply always be there, and to always exhibit bright optimism and a sense of humor.
"Got a problem? Call Elspeth," said her principal, Matthew Sinisi in a letter to the Hudson County Teacher of the Year review panel in May. "The students, faculty and administration all love and admire (her). She continues to be hardworking dedicated and devoted. Elspeth (Moore) is a model teacher."
Moore grew up in Connecticut but has spent 30 years teaching at Memorial High School. She began her career teaching Home Economics. After three years, she moved to the library, where she cemented herself as the librarian and media specialist for the next three decades.
She and her husband, Bob Moore, live in Stockholm, Sussex County. While Corrigan took on her husbands name in marriage, she kept the name Mrs. Corrigan in the classroom, namely because another teacher also had the last name Moore.
Bob Moore was a longtime U.S. History teacher in Wayne. He retired last year.
Elspeth Moore holds a bachelors degree in home economics and is a 1972 graduate of College of St. Elizabeth. She earned her masters degree in library and information science from Rutgers University in 1977. She has taken additional courses in library science and education from Rutgers, City College of New York, Jersey City State University and St. Peters University.
"We are pleased to recognize this longtime teacher with deep-rooted ties to her school district and educational beliefs," said Maud Dahme, the state board of education president. "The board is committed to recognizing teachers focused on excelling in their classrooms. Elspeth Moore is a shining example of doing just that."
Her love of libraries and reading began as early as first grade. Moore said she simply wants to do for her students what her teachers did for her.
"We always went to the library, whether to get or return a book or to read," Moore said. "The library was an important part of our education."
Moores educational philosophy is twofold. First, she believes teachers are role models even if they are never asked to do it. She also believes that good teachers foster and accept students individual differences.
Such an ideal is key in the West New York school district, an Abbott special needs district with a diverse 80 percent of the high school student body is Hispanic high school population. Embracing such diversity is the most rewarding aspect of her job, she said.
"We see an amazing change in language skills in our (English as a Second Language) community," Moore said. "I see students come into the library who cant speak English. But after four years they are fluent in English and going off to college. They really want to learn."
In an essay for Teacher of the Year award consideration, Moore traced becoming an educator back to her early childhood, saying it was her "only career goal."
"I had excellent teachers and role models who encouraged young people to go into education," Moore wrote. "Like many high school students in the 1960s, making the world a better place was one of my goals. It may have been an idealistic outlook. Thirty years later, I still believe individuals can make their mark on the world and change it."
In addition to her responsibilities in the classroom, Moore is an active member of the West Milford Lions Club and is currently the chairperson of the New Jersey Lions Club International Foundation. Her chief responsibility in that capacity is coordinating World Trade Center and Lions Club disaster relief funding.
Moore was recently elected District Governor for the clubs northern New Jersey region, comprising Bergen, Hudson and Passaic counties.
As New Jersey Teacher of the Year, Moore will be asked to be an advocate and role model for the teaching profession. She will also speak on behalf of teachers statewide and she will represent New Jersey in the national Teacher of the Year competition.
"Im humbled," Moore said. "This is a great honor. Its an honor to be a librarian and get this award. Its honor to be from an Abbott school a city high school."
The National Teacher of the Year is announced in April 2003 at a special ceremony in the Rose Garden at the White House.
Moore was selected by a panel of judges who represent the states educational associations. The panel reviewed the applications of the 21 county teachers of the year and selected Moore from a field of six finalists.
As part of the award, Moore was granted a half-year sabbatical sponsored by the Educational Testing Service. The Department of Education will cover all travel costs. The department will also reimburse the West New York School District for the cost of hiring substitute teachers through December. At the request of the New Jersey Educational Association, Saturn Retailers of New Jersey have unanimously agreed to provide a Saturn for Moores use.

Lightweight Visual Packaging Delivers Shelf Appeal and Efficiencies
Skin and stretch packaging films made with DuPont™ Surlyn® are an attractive, lightweight, cost-effective alternative to clamshell and blister visual packaging.
DuPont™ Surlyn® for skin and stretch packaging films enhances the shelf appeal of retail visual packaging. It is both attractive and lightweight, helping manufacturers and converters reduce material usage without sacrificing performance.
In both skin and stretch carded display packaging (Stretch Pak), Surlyn® shows products clearly for maximum shelf appeal, helping increase sales. It offers outstanding gloss and transparency for superior shelf appeal, imparting brightness to both matte and semi-gloss printed boards. It also allows a low ratio of packaging to product, which can provide substantial savings in product transport, while reducing waste.
Surlyn® and Skin Packaging
For skin packaging, Surlyn® provides excellent transparency, quick absorption of infrared heat, and deep drawability. It can conform to the shape of almost any product, no matter how unusual. It allows for short production cycles with lower energy requirements. Its high melt strength allows use of thinner gauges, and it does not get brittle with age or exposure to extreme cold.
Stretch Pak Design Options
Stretch Pak films made with DuPont™ Surlyn® ionomer resin give visual packaging more design options, including:
- One-Sided Frame View: Similar to surface-seal blister or skin packages, the opening can conform to the product's shape or be designed as a generic shape. Ideal for use with similar products of different sizes and shapes.
- See-Through Frame View: The product "floats" in the middle of the card so that it can be seen from either side. Also ideal for use with similar products of different sizes and shapes.
- Two-Sided Stand-Up: Replacing standing fold-over blister and clamshell packages, this design provides superior standing performance and prevents the product from moving within the package. Ideal for incorporating promotional items.
Surlyn® for Stretch Pak Production Advantages
Stretch Pak also helps make packaging production more efficient:
- It shrinks tight to conform to even the most oddly shaped products.
- It permits fast throughput and line speeds, for easier processing at higher packaging yields.
- Products can be packaged in single or multiple units, or in a premium version, without interfering with production.
Surlyn® Performance Properties Enhance Visual Packaging
Because of its unique bond between the polymer chains, carded display packaging using skin and stretch packaging films containing Surlyn® offers many performance benefits, including:
- Faster Processing: Surlyn® absorbs infrared heat at about twice the rate of PE. Its ability to soften more quickly in the heating phase speeds up the whole packaging process, allowing around 40% more packaging cycles in the same time frame.
- Better Puncture and Abrasion Resistance: Films made of Surlyn® are not easily punctured by pointed objects and sharp edges, especially during the critical forming stages of the packaging cycle.
- Tamper Resistance and Improved Product Security: Films made with Surlyn® are highly resistant to tampering. It is very difficult to remove the product from its package without leaving obvious signs that the package was compromised.
- Better Resistance to Board Curl: Compared with LDPE, Surlyn® has a higher shrink force in the molten phase, for perfect draw, but a lower shrinkforce in the solid state. This eliminates unsightly board curl and prevents objects from being deformed.
- Better Chemical Resistance: Films made with Surlyn® resins are resistant to grease and oil, which are often used for packaging of industrial parts such as bearings and tiles, and it will not corrode unplated metals.
- Better Resistance to Aging: Films made with Surlyn® do not become brittle with age, even when packaging the heaviest products.
- Cold-Weather Durability: Films made with Surlyn® retain all their properties down to -40 °C, minimizing low-temperature impact breakage during transit and storage.
- Excellent Adhesion to Primed and Non-Primed Board: Surlyn® provides outstanding adhesion to primed board, and Surlyn® co-extruded with highly transparent Bynel® adhesive resin provides outstanding adhesion to non-primed board.
Sustainability Advantages
Skin and Stretch Pak films made with Surlyn® offer significant weight and volume reduction compared to traditional rigid blister or clamshell packs. Because of its outstanding toughness and formability, Surlyn® makes downgauging easier, helping reduce packaging volume during transit. And by using less film overall, visual packaging manufacturers can reduce their source material usage.
Blister Packaging Alternative
Skin and stretch packaging films made with DuPont™ Surlyn® area clamshell and blister packaging alternative that reduces material usage and enhances the shelf appeal of consumer products.

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (March 1, 2013) – ETSU senior guard Jarvis Jones (Memphis) has enjoyed plenty of success during his five years as a member of the ETSU men's basketball team. Unfortunately, his last memory of the Dome will not be a good one.
In front of 4,389 fans on Senior Night, Jones and the Buccaneers were unable to overcome a hot shooting start by the USC Upstate Spartans and ultimately dropped their regular season finale 88-56 Friday night in Atlantic Sun Conference basketball action at the ETSU/MSHA Athletic Center.
Suffering their worst conference defeat in terms of point margin since joining the A-Sun in 2005-06, the Bucs dropped to 10-21 overall, 8-10 in league play. Meanwhile, USC Upstate improved to 15-16, 9-9 on the season.
"That's just very embarrassing, and honestly we didn't see it coming," said ETSU head coach Murry Bartow. "We had a great win at Jacksonville in our last game and we had a great week of practice, but for whatever reason we had a complete lack of energy from the start. It's pretty obvious we got whipped in every aspect of the game."
Things did not go well for the Bucs from the beginning of the game. Hitting five 3-pointers in the opening five minutes of the game, USC Upstate quickly jumped ahead by 14 points at 19-5 and never allowed the Bucs to cut the deficit closer than six points in the first half.
Despite that tough start, the Bucs trailed 39-25 at the break and still had a shot at the win – especially with ETSU having rallied for multiple victories in the second half this season. However, it didn't work out that way this time.
In fact, the Spartans opened the second half by outscoring the Bucs 36-9 and simply dominated in every possible way. For the game, Upstate shot 49 percent from the field, 46 percent from 3-point range and 72 percent from the foul line. The Spartans also out-rebounded ETSU 42-29, and enjoyed a 36-22 edge on points in the paint, while ETSU shot just 35 percent from the floor.
Swingman Torrey Craig led the Upstate attack with a game-high 26 points, while guard Ty Greene netted 17 points, guard Adrian Rodgers added 12, and forward Ricardo Glenn pitched in 10. For ETSU, junior forward Hunter Harris (Nashville) scored a team-high 13 points, while Jones finished with 12.
The Bucs will now wait to learn of their seeding for next week's A-Sun Tournament in Macon, Ga., which will be determined following Saturday's play in league action. For more on ETSU men's basketball, visit ETSUBucs.com and click on the men's hoops link.

Individual classes cost $32, and there are discounts when packages are purchased.
East Hampton Babysitters
Kevin Reynolds, a retired New York police officer and a massage therapist, has started a new business, East Hampton Babysitters. All candidates — and he has over 100, he said — are subjected to a thorough application and investigation process.
"We offer tender, loving, conscientious care for babies and children, providing a safe and secure environment," said Mr. Reynolds, who is the father of two daughters, Molly and Hunter, and lives in Springs.
Potential clients have been encouraged to contact the company soon to set up their summer baby-sitting needs. A Web site, easthamptonbabysitters.com, offers more information.
Pool Party

I like this book because it is fun. Lots of animal characters are dancing in the barn. I like to dance. The authors use very good description words that sound like singing when read aloud. The pictures go really well with the words. I also like the story because I am like the skinny boy in the story. I have lots of questions in my head.
I recommend this book to young kids who like picture books read aloud. If you like illustrations that help tell the story then you will like this.

Far East lift for GSK
Music icon BILLY JOEL took a swipe at MADONNA's vocal talents during his performance in New York City on Monday night (27Jan14).
The Piano Man hitmaker kicked off a year-long residency at New York's Madison Square Garden, and shared the secret behind his smooth vocals by producing a throat soothing spray during the opening night performance.
The singer then used the spray to poke fun at the Material Girl, who has been accused of lip-syncing during her shows in the past, by joking to the audience, "I saw Madonna use this once... it didn't help her much."

The sound of the ES-10P can only described as elegant. The 440W Class AB amplifier offers the best mix of power, linear sound reproduction, and pleasing musicality. Other amplifiers hype the high-end to make it seem like the music is louder, but the ES series provides the true sound in all it's fullness. The custom designed Class AB amplifier is in a league of it's own when it comes to far reaching and great sound at an affordable price.An Articulate Voice
The transducers are articulate and responsive to the subtle and dynamic changes in your tracks. The 2-way speaker is composed of a large 10" LF woofer and powerful 1.5" voice coil needed to push the low frequencies nearing 30Hz around the room. The tweeter is a pure titanium compression driver with a wide dispersion horn for airy and detailed highs even at large distances or angles from the speaker.Workhorse
The ABS nylon fiber cabinet makes the ES series of speakers strong and durable in the face of continual use and abuse. Each cabinet also has top and side mounted handles for multiple carrying positions and options for hanging or stand mounting, so getting to the event and setting up is simple every time.Mix Maestro
On the back panel of the ES-10P are XLR, Line, and RCA inputs with separate gain and EQ controls as well as a Mix Output. Connecting your gear and crafting the ideal sound within your environment is easy to do with precision.Versatile Value
The ES series was designed to be a great and versatile speaker that will last for years under continual travel and use. With all the features of speakers costing much more the ES series comes in at a definite value with all of the detail and loudness you need in your sound.Features:
