Magnesium sulfate is an inorganic salt (chemical compound) containing magnesium, sulfur and oxygen, with the formula MgSO4. It is often encountered as the heptahydrate sulfate mineral epsomite (MgSO4·7H2O), commonly called Epsom salt. The monohydrate, MgSO4·H2O is found as the mineral kieserite. The overall global annual usage in the mid-1970s of the monohydrate was 2.3 million tons, of which the majority was used in agriculture.[1]
Anhydrous magnesium sulfate is used as a drying agent. The anhydrous form is hygroscopic (readily absorbs water from the air) and is therefore difficult to weigh accurately; the hydrate is often preferred when preparing solutions (for example, in medical preparations). Epsom salt has been traditionally used as a component of bath salts. Epsom salt can also be used as a beauty product. Athletes use it to soothe sore muscles, while gardeners use it to improve crops. It has a variety of other uses: for example, Epsom salt is also effective in the removal of splinters.[2]
It is on the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines, the most important medications needed in a basic health system.[3]
Magnesium sulfate is a common mineral pharmaceutical preparation of magnesium, commonly known as Epsom salt, used both externally and internally. Magnesium sulfate is highly water-soluble and solubility is inhibited with lipids typically used in lotions. Lotions often employ the use of emulsions or suspensions to include both oil and water-soluble ingredients. Hence, magnesium sulfate in a lotion may not be as freely available to migrate to the skin nor to be absorbed through the skin, hence both studies may properly suggest absorption or lack thereof as a function of the carrier (in a water solution vs. in an oil emulsion/suspension). Temperature and concentration gradients may also be contributing factors to absorption.
Epsom salt is used as bath salts and for isolation tanks. Magnesium sulfate is the main preparation of intravenous magnesium.
Internal uses include:
An overdose of magnesium causes hypermagnesemia.
In gardening and other agriculture, magnesium sulfate is used to correct a magnesium or sulfur deficiency in soil; magnesium is an essential element in the chlorophyll molecule, and sulfur is another important micronutrient.[10] It is most commonly applied to potted plants, or to magnesium-hungry crops, such as potatoes, roses, tomatoes, lemon trees, carrots, and peppers. The advantage of magnesium sulfate over other magnesium soil amendments (such as dolomitic lime) is its high solubility, which also allows the option of foliar feeding. Solutions of magnesium sulfate are also nearly neutral, compared with alkaline salts of magnesium as found in limestone; therefore, the use of magnesium sulfate as a magnesium source for soil does not significantly change the soil pH.[11]
Magnesium sulfate is used as a brewing salt in beer production to adjust the ion content of the brewing water and enhance enzyme action in the mash or promote a desired flavor profile in the beer.
It may also be used as a coagulant for making tofu.[12]
Anhydrous magnesium sulfate is commonly used as a desiccant in organic synthesis due to its affinity for water. During work-up, an organic phase is saturated with magnesium sulfate until it no longer forms clumps. The hydrated solid is then removed with filtration or decantation. Other inorganic sulfate salts such as sodium sulfate and calcium sulfate may also be used in the same way.
Magnesium sulfate heptahydrate is also used to maintain the magnesium concentration in marine aquaria which contain large amounts of stony corals, as it is slowly depleted in their calcification process. In a magnesium-deficient marine aquarium, calcium and alkalinity concentrations are very difficult to control because not enough magnesium is present to stabilize these ions in the saltwater and prevent their spontaneous precipitation into calcium carbonate.[13]
Magnesium sulfate is highly soluble in water. The anhydrous form is strongly hygroscopic, and can be used as a desiccant. It is the primary substance that causes the absorption of sound in seawater[14] (acoustic energy is converted to thermal energy). Absorption is strongly dependent on frequency: lower frequencies are less absorbed by the salt, so that the sound travels much farther in the ocean. Boric acid also contributes to absorption, but the most abundant salt in seawater, sodium chloride, has negligible sound absorption.
Almost all known mineralogical forms of MgSO4 occur as hydrates. Epsomite is the natural analogue of "Epsom salt". Another heptahydrate, the copper-containing mineral alpersite (Mg,Cu)SO4·7H2O,[15] was recently recognized. Both are, however, not the highest known hydrates of MgSO4, due to the recent terrestrial find of meridianiite, MgSO4·11H2O, which is thought to also occur on Mars. Hexahydrite is the next lower (6) hydrate. Three next lower hydrates — pentahydrite (5), starkeyite (4) and especially sanderite (2) — are more rarely found. Kieserite is a monohydrate and is common among evaporitic deposits. Anhydrous magnesium sulfate was reported from some burning coal dumps, but was never treated as a mineral.
The pH of hydrates is average 6.0 (5.5 to 6.5). Magnesium hydrates have water of crystallization.[16]
The heptahydrate can be prepared by neutralizing sulfuric acid with magnesium carbonate or oxide, but it is usually obtained directly from natural sources.
Anhydrous magnesium sulfate is prepared only by the dehydration of a hydrate.
Magnesium sulfates are common minerals in geological environments. Their occurrence is mostly connected with supergene processes. Some of them are also important constituents of evaporitic potassium-magnesium (K-Mg) salts deposits.
Bright spots observed by the Dawn Spacecraft in Occator Crater on the dwarf planet Ceres are most consistent with reflected light from magnesium sulfate hexahydrate.[17]
It is often encountered as the heptahydrate sulfate mineral epsomite (MgSO4·7H2O), commonly called Epsom salt, which takes its name from a bitter saline spring in Epsom in Surrey, England, where the salt was produced from the springs that arise where the porous chalk of the North Downs meets non-porous London clay.
Previous ACLS guidelines addressed the use of magnesium in cardiac arrest with polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (ie, torsades de pointes) or suspected hypomagnesemia, and this has not been reevaluated in the 2015 Guidelines Update. These previous guidelines recommended defibrillation for termination of polymorphic VT (ie, torsades de pointes), followed by consideration of intravenous magnesium sulfate when secondary to a long QT interval.

This paper covers a general background of the Amish in the United States before discussing the practice of rumspringa. The paper shows that when Amish teenagers reach the age of 16, they are given much wider latitude in the community and permitted to experience the outside world and even experiment with it. The hope is that this practice will grant the children just enough freedom that they will not feel stifled if (and usually when) they decide to return to the community to be baptized as adults.
From the Paper:
"Some believe that the teenagers are drawn back to the Amish lifestyle because even though it does not offer the materialistic amenities of the Western world it possesses physical, emotional, and spiritual security that cannot be easily found outside the Amish world. In an Amish community, all will be provided for so long as each individual follows the exacting code of conduct of the community. For this reason, despite the sensory overload and materialist appeal that the Western world might offer Amish teens on rumspringa, returning to the community is almost assured."Cite this Essay:

Rebel's statement on stripper-police? Kanye's bid for president?
'Miley Cyrus and Her Dead Petz' are here, and things are about to get freaky.
Nicki Minaj hugged it out and made up with Taylor Swift at the 2015 MTV Video Music Awards, but it looked like she was about to start a rumble with Miley Cyrus during her acceptance speech for Best Hip-Hop Video.
She started out with a metallic bang...where will her garb go from there?
"I think there's a way you speak to people with openness and love," she said.
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery as the saying goes and nothing screams that louder than watching your favorite rapper or singer cover their favorite artists' songs.
The summer of 2015 has afforded far too many absurd and newsworthy sagas for SNL to sit out, and Season 41 is already exploding off the bench. Not only will Miley Cyrus host the October premiere, but SNL will follow up with Amy Schumer, and a momentous return for alumni Tracy Morgan.
Miley gets honest about her days playing Hannah Montana.
The singer opens up in the newest issue of Cosmopolitan.

We are proposing to extend the Bakerloo line beyond Elephant & Castle to Lewisham, serving Old Kent Road and New Cross Gate, and would like to hear your views.
The extension will improve connectivity, increase the capacity and resilience of the transport network and reduce journey times between key destinations. This will help London to grow by supporting new homes and jobs.
In autumn 2014 we asked for views on an extension of the Bakerloo line. Following assessment of the consulted route options alongside those suggested by consultees, we have concluded that an extension to Lewisham via Old Kent Road and New Cross Gate is the best option for an initial Bakerloo line extension.
Progressing with these proposals is a commitment made by the Mayor, Sadiq Khan, and we have therefore allocated funds for its development in the TfL business plan. We have a lot of further work to do to progress these proposals and will consult further as our plans develop. The Mayor has committed to bring the completion date forward from 2030 to 2028/29.
Our application for planning permission to construct and operate the extension will be through a Transport and Works Act Order. This is subject to rigorous conditions and may result in a public inquiry at which further representations can be made.

Why the extension is needed
London's population is forecast to grow to over 10 million people by 2030. To help accommodate this growth, the Old Kent Road Opportunity Area in Southwark has the potential for at least 20,000 new homes and 5,000 new jobs, with further new homes under construction and planned in Lewisham.
To support this growth and improve passenger journeys, there will need to be improved transport services in south east London, especially along Old Kent Road. Old Kent Road is currently served well by buses but at times these suffer from traffic delays, and will not be able to support the potential growth in the area on their own.
As part of the Greater London Authority, we are working in partnership with the London Boroughs of Southwark and Lewisham to develop proposals for growth along the extension that can support both, current and planned communities and businesses.
The extension would:
Our proposals
We are proposing four new stations along the route of the proposed Bakerloo line extension. The suggested locations for these are:
We are also proposing changes at Elephant & Castle station to improve journeys for all customers using the station.
We would also need to build three shafts along the route. These would provide ventilation, cooling and emergency access to tunnels. At the surface, a structure known as a head-house would be built that contains the equipment for the shaft to function.
A shaft is required:
Shafts are required in these locations either due to the distance between two stations or because we would need to access trains parked in tunnels underground.
We would need to build two new tunnels to deliver the Bakerloo line extension from Elephant & Castle to Lewisham. These tunnels would generally be 20 metres beneath the ground. The alignment of the proposed tunnels would be subject to a future consultation and dependent on the selected locations of the proposed stations and shafts.
Station and shaft construction
Worksites would be required at each station and shaft location to enable construction. We may also need additional temporary worksites along the proposed route of the extension to aid these construction works.
Elephant & Castle station
We need to improve the Bakerloo line station at Elephant & Castle as part of the proposed extension.
The station improvements could be undertaken in addition to the existing plans to upgrade the Northern line ticket hall. The improvements would provide a new larger ticket hall and wider platforms for the Bakerloo line, along with better connections to the Northern line, and relieve crowding for passengers. To undertake these improvements we would require land for a worksite in the area.
At this early stage of development, the options are to try to use the existing infrastructure such as the Bakerloo line ticket hall building, platforms and existing tunnels, or investigate a site for a new ticket hall for Bakerloo line passengers.
The area highlighted on the map below is where we are currently considering undertaking the improvements to the station. We only require a portion of this area for the worksite. We are asking for your views on which section in the shaded area of the map you think would be most appropriate for the station and worksite.
Area currently under consideration for the required improvements to the Bakerloo line station at Elephant & Castle
Shaft between Elephant & Castle and Old Kent Road 1 stations
We need one shaft between Elephant & Castle and the proposed station Old Kent Road 1 due to the distance between them. We have identified two possible locations for the proposed shaft. The locations are shown on the maps below.
Elephant & Castle to Old Kent Road 1 shaft option A
In the Bricklayers Arms road junction area.
Elephant & Castle to Old Kent Road 1 shaft option B
At a public park site on Portland Street.
Old Kent Road stations
Both stations would be below ground with entrances and exits at street level. The stations would serve both existing and new residents and would provide an interchange with local bus services, walking and cycling routes.
We are considering two locations for the proposed station currently called Old Kent Road 1:
Old Kent Road 1 station option A
Near the junction of Mandela Way with Dunton Road.
Old Kent Road 1 station option B
Near the junction of Old Kent Road with Dunton Road.
We are also considering two locations for the second proposed station along Old Kent Road, currently called Old Kent Road 2.
Old Kent Road 2 station option A
Near the junction of Old Kent Road with St James's Road.
Old Kent Road 2 station option B
Near the junction of Asylum Road with Old Kent Road.
New Cross Gate station
We propose to build a new station at New Cross Gate and have identified a preferred site. This is shown on the map below. The station would be below ground along the western side of the existing rail station. It would improve connectivity in this part of London by providing an interchange to London Overground, National Rail services and local bus routes.
The size of the proposed site provides several opportunities for the project. It could allow soil to be taken away by train rather than using local roads. We could also start the tunnel machinery from this site.
Proposed New Cross Gate Bakerloo line station and worksite
Shaft between New Cross Gate and Lewisham stations
A shaft needs to be located between New Cross Gate and Lewisham station. We have identified a single preferred site for a shaft and worksite on the proposed location at the end of Alexandra Cottages off Lewisham Way.
Proposed shaft and worksite between New Cross Gate and Lewisham stations
We are proposing a preferred option for the station and shaft sites in the New Cross Gate area because our assessment has shown that they are the most suitable locations for the construction works needed to deliver the extension.
Lewisham station
Our preferred site for the Bakerloo line station at Lewisham is shown on the map below.
The station would be located on Thurston Road along the south western side of the existing National Rail station. It would improve connectivity by providing an interchange to National Rail and DLR services and access to the town centre.
Extending to Lewisham would also provide an interchange to buses, helping to increase Lewisham's role as a major transport hub in south east London.
Proposed Lewisham Bakerloo line station and worksite
Shaft at the end of the line in Lewisham
We need to build tunnels beyond Lewisham station to provide an overrun tunnel that would allow empty trains to be parked. The overrun tunnels would also enable an extension of the Bakerloo line beyond Lewisham, if this were considered desirable in the future. These overrun tunnels also require a shaft for access.
The shaft site lies to the north of Wearside Road and along the eastern side of the Hayes National Rail line and south of the Hither Green National Rail line.
Proposed shaft and worksite location for overrun tunnels in Lewisham
We are proposing single preferred options for the station and shaft sites at Lewisham because our assessment has demonstrated that they are the most suitable locations for the construction works needed to deliver the extension.
For further information on the scheme please view our "Background to Consultation Report" and our factsheets in the Supplementary Information section below.

Over a year ago, I reported the bug on MC x64-0.8.30.5622,
where TSmuxeR 2.6.12 had been employed. Then Stanley switched back to
TSmuxeR ver1.10.6(smlabs).
See "Product .m2ts is bigger than that got manually from intermed":
Now as to MC5820, the buggy TSmuxeR_2.6.12 has been employed again.
(MC5810 employs TSmuxeR ver1.10.6)
Even if it is the latest, we must not employ it when it has a fatal bug, I think.
MC should switch back to TSmuxeR ver1.10.6(smlabs).

THIS ISSUE OF PRRM'S COMMUNITY & HABITAT JOURNAL IS focused on the intertwined issues of climate change, energy and food.
Recent events have further highlighted the linkages between these concerns. As oil prices increase, driven up by the decelerating global production levels, a frantic search for alternative fuels is happening now. The search is constrained by the impact of fossil fuels on climate, which in recent years has finally entered the public radar screen. It is now generally accepted that we cannot continue the current levels of fossil fuel consumption without endangering our very survival on this planet. Among the carbon-neutral technologies which have received attention are agrofuels (which is a more accurate term than biofuels because the term pinpoint the true source of such fuels). Today more than a fourth of the U.S. corn production now goes to alcohol production. Given the expected attractive prices for agro-fuels, agricultural lands are being shifted to agro-fuel crops like corn, sugar, sorghum, and exotics such as jatropha. One doesn't have to be an agriculture expert to predict the impact of these developments on food production. True enough, food prices are shooting up, food shortages rearing their ugly head, and countries with surplus food crops are beginning to scale down their exports.
Locally, the most telling effect of these developments is that the Philippines, which ironically hosts the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI), is now the world's biggest importer of rice.
We have collected a number of pieces that look at the different aspects of these intertwined issues. Although we have emphasized adaptation measures, we are not ignoring the analytical search for root causes and vicious cycles, which is ultimately the first step towards long-term solutions.
It is clear now that we must build new types of communities to cope with these serious threats. Among the various terms used to describe such communities, we have chosen the word "resilience" as one which most closely describes the most important feature a community must have to weather the coming shocks. Resilience is also a scientifically-grounded term often used in ecological studies to characterize ecosystems that can survive serious environmental shocks.
Resilience involves reviving forgotten practices that have served us well in times of crises as well as adopting radically new approaches in thinking and behavior. It will involve a major change in mindset for each of us. The sooner this happens, the better.

"Fuck the police." – reddit
This gif from reddit reminded me of the GameShark levitating code I used to use on Ocarina of Time. And yes, I once was a GameShark FIEND. I mean, hello, there was so much cool shit you could do, like, levitate. I levitated right over that stupid Kokiri girl who wouldn't let me leave the Kokiri Forest, I levitated over all of the guards in the Hyrule Castle Courtyard and I even levitated "into" the castle itself where Ganon, the king and the guards were chillin'. Granted there weren't any solid walls and if I let go of the L button Link would just fall forever, but it was still amazing.
However I soon remembered how I literally bugged out my Super Smash Brothers game by using a GameShark (as a result I can only play the campaign as Mario :/) so I stopped levitating Link's ass around. But it was a fun ride. <3.

Mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). This study re-investigates the roles of previously suggested candidate genes of energy metabolism (Complex I genes located in the nucleus and in the mitochondria) in patients with MS relative to ethnically matched SLE patients and healthy controls. After stringent correction for multiple testing, we reproduce the association of the mitochondrial (mt)DNA haplotype K* with MS, but reject the importance of previously suggested borderline associations with nuclear genes of Complex I. In addition, we detect the association of common variants of the mitochondrial ND2 and ATP6 genes with both MS and SLE, which raises the possibility of a shared mitochondrial genetic background of these two autoimmune diseases.
Mitochondrial genes and proteins have been investigated in both MS and SLE. Mitochondrial dysfunction resulting in elevation of the mitochondrial trans-membrane potential and depletion of ATP was found to predispose to pro-inflammatory necrosis rather than physiological apoptosis in circulating T lymphocytes of patients with SLE [1,2]. Genes involved in mitochondrial electron transport are over-expressed in lupus T cells [3]. In MS, mitochondria have been implicated in neurodegeneration, and mtDNA markers consistently showed association with the disease [4–8]. Complex I is transcribed from 7 mitochondrial (mt)DNA and 38 nuclear (n)DNA encoded genes. By complete sequencing and high resolution Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) scans, we identified MS-associated missense polymorphic mutations (i.e. Leber's Hereditary Optic Atrophy - LHON mutations) within the mtDNA-encoded ND1 (nt4216), ND3 (nt10,398) and ND5 (nt13,708) subunits of Complex I, and in the cytochrome b (nt14,798) gene. These variants align in haplotypes J* and K* in the Caucasian haplogroups J and K [5,6]. In addition, our previous data suggested that MS families may express susceptibility-defining nDNA and mtDNA SNP combinations in Complex I [9].
In the present study, we reinvestigated if the associations of Complex I nuclear and mitochondrial SNPs can be reproduced in a large case-control MS cohort and if these markers also show association with SLE.
All samples used in this study were collected according to previous and signed consent of patients and control subjects. This study was approved by the Institutional Review Boards (IRB) of Upstate Medical University and of the Syracuse Veterans Administration Medical Center and the Multiple Sclerosis Research Center of New York (MSRCNY). Collections of the specimens by the repositories were approved by the local IRB committees.
We obtained genomic DNA, blood or frozen tissue specimens of 523 MS patients from the Multiple Sclerosis DNA Bank (MSDB), University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, CA, Accelerated Cure Project for Multiple Sclerosis (ACPMS, Boston, MA), Multiple Sclerosis Research Center of New York (MSRCNY, New York, NY), and the Human Brain and Spinal Fluid Resource Center (HBSFRC, Los Angeles, CA). All patients were Caucasians and had definite MS [10]. Sixty-one percent of patients had relapsing-remitting (RR)-MS, 10% primary-progressive (PP)-MS, 23% secondary progressive (SP)-MS, and 1% progressive-relapsing (PR)-MS course. The course of MS, age of onset (defined by the physician), age at diagnosis of MS, EDSS at the time of specimen collection, time to reach maximum EDSS (including time to death EDSS=10) from disease onset, and medications during the disease course were defined for each MS patient.
Genomic DNA of 97 patients with SLE that satisfied the established diagnostic criteria [11] was investigated. All patients were Caucasians. Normal controls: Buccal swab specimens of 466 Caucasian healthy controls were obtained from staff members, spouses of MS patients and constructors working at the MSRCNY, New York. Specimens from these patients and controls were included in a parallel study [12].
The average ages of patients and controls were similar (MS patients: 46.5; SLE: 44.5; controls: 43.2). The mean age for disease onset was 35.2 years in MS and 33.8 years in SLE. The female to male ratio was 2.35 (367/156) in the MS cohort; 12.9 (90/7) in the SLE cohort and 2.61 (313/120) in controls.
We investigated the distributions of patients based on EDSS over time, and identified two subgroups of patients: 1. Mild with an EDSS≤4 at 10 years after onset and 2. Severe with an EDSS≥6 at 10 years after onset. The mild subgroup included 105 and the severe subgroup included 75 patients.
The Qiagen Blood DNA Mini Kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA) was used for DNA extraction according to the manufacturer's instruction.
Most SNPs have been previously tested using various techniques and showed association with MS in our previous studies [5,6,9]. Presently, 9 markers within mtDNA (SNPs at nt1719, nt4216, nt4529, nt4917, nt9055, nt10398, nt13708, 14798 and nt16391) and 7 markers within nDNA encoded genes of Complex I were validated and tested (2 SNPs in NDUFS5 - 1p34.2-p33; 3 SNPs in NDUFS7 - 19p13; 2 SNPs in NDUFA7 - 19p13) [6,9].
In this study, SNPs were identified by using the Sequenom MassARRAY™ System through a Cogenics division of Clinical Data Inc. contract.
For associations of marker alleles and haplotypes, the χ2-test was sed. Bonferroni correction was performed for multiple testing. The Complex I nDNA markers are encoded on different chromosomes, thus LD did not affect the analysis.
Table I shows associations of mtDNA markers with MS and SLE. All markers with p<0.05 are indicated. A total of 9 mtDNA markers were tested in two groups, requiring an uncorrected α-value of 0.0056 for a significant observation. The nt4917 and nt9055 variants in MS, and the nt9055 variant in SLE remain significant after Bonferroni correction.
Table II indicates association of mtDNA haplotypes J* and K* with MS and SLE. Only two haplotypes were tested, requiring an α-value of 0.025. The K* haplotype shows association with MS after correction for multiple testing.
None of the investigated nDNA and mtDNA markers, or mtDNA haplotypes segregated differentially with severity subgroups of MS. Comparisons of marker alleles and haplotypes in the PP-MS/PR-MS vs. RR-MS/SP-MS subgroups were also unrevealing.
Multiple slerosis is characterized by significant heterogeneity involving inflammation and neurodegeneration [13,14]. Neurodegeneration is the best correlate of clinical disability [15], nevertheless, only a few studies investigated genetic determinants of it. We have been studying mitochondrial mechanisms underlying cell and tissue integrity, and also reported genetic variants of Complex I likely involved in neurodegeneration in MS [5,6,8,9]. The previous mtDNA studies in several Caucasian case-control cohorts consistently revealed polymorphic markers (including LHON polymorphisms and a cytochrome b variant) and haplotypes (J*, K*) in association with MS [5,6,9], and established that primary pathogenic LHON mutations occur, but rarely in MS [16,17]. Here we aimed to conclude our analyses concerning these candidate markers in a larger cohort of MS, and to generate comparative data in another autoimmune disease, SLE.
In the present cohort of 523 MS patients and 466 controls, we only detected weak p-values for associations with previously highlighted nuclear Complex I SNP markers and haplotypes, which all became non-significant after Bonferroni correction. If we assume a genotypic relative risk of 1.3 for heterozygous and 1.8 for homozygous state of the high risk allele with 0.20 frequency, the power to detect p=0.05 as 73%, while for risk alleles with 0.25 frequency we had 80% power and for risk alleles with 0.05 or lower frequency we had only 30% power [18]. As most of the markers had an allele frequency of 0.2 or higher, we had sufficient power to exclude any associations between SNPs in nuclear Complex I genes and MS. This conclusion is also in agreement with the outcome of the recent WGA study that revealed no significant p-values in the proximity of our Complex I nDNA markers [19].
The previously identified mtDNA K* haplotype defined by variants at nts 9055, 10,398 and 14,798 showed again strong association with MS in the present study [6]. Individual marker associations were detected at nt9055 of the ATP6 gene (Complex V) and at nt4917 of the ND2 gene (Complex I). In contrast to previous findings, only a trend for increase but not a significant association was found for haplotype J* in MS, which might be related to a different sub-ethnic composition of the present and past Caucasian cohorts. The nt4917 variant with the nt4216 variants (secondary LHON mutations) align in the Caucasian haplogroup T that shares a common ancestry with haplogroup J [20].
Among variants defining the K* haplotype, the A→G transition at nt9055 changes alanine to threonine in the ATP6 subunit of complex V or F0F1-ATPase, while the A→G transition at nt10,398 changes threonine to alanine in the ND3 subunit of Complex I [6]. Their functional significance is unknown. The T→C transition at nt14,798 changes phenylalanine to leucine in cytochrome b (subunit of Complex III). This variant is located at the inner CoQ-binding site of the enzyme and reduces proton pumping and coupling efficiency [21]. Therefore, it is tempting to postulate that variants (particularly nt14,798) in the K* haplotype cause an increased endogenous free radical production, which along with the inflammation-related free radical and nitric oxide release, synergistically contribute to the observed oxidative damage, impaired OXPHOS activity and neuroaxonal loss in MS lesions [8,21,22].
Testing the distribution of all nuclear and mitochondrial Complex I markers in the PP-MS/PR-MS vs. RR-MS/SP-MS subgroups resulted in no significant observations. Likewise, no differences in marker distribution were noted when EDSS-based mild and severe subgroups of MS were compared.
None of the tested SNPs in nuclear genes of Complex I showed association with SLE. Similarly, no mtDNA haplotype association was detected in this patient cohort. The borderline association at nt4917 (secondary LHON mutation) requires testing in larger cohorts. However, the association of the variant at nt9055 in the ATP6 or F0F1- ATPase gene (Complex V) with SLE remains significant even after correction for multiple testing. Since inhibition of F0F1-ATPase by oligomycin elicits mitochondrial hyperpolarization and ATP depletion [1], and thus, mimics the changes persistently observed in lupus T cells [1,23,24], it is conceivable that the alanine→threonine change in this enzyme could influence the pathophysiology of SLE.
In summary, in the present follow up study, we confirmed the association of the mtDNA K* haplotype with MS and excluded the importance of nuclear Complex I variants. This study also suggests that the observed intra-familial recurrence of MS and SLE [25–27] may not only be related to common immune regulatory genes, but also to shared variants in mtDNA.

Character, Dignity, and Self-Respect
Alina Campbell
This paper will summarize the movie Glory and relate one or two characters to Aristotle, Epictetus, and Saint Augustine on character, dignity, and self-respect.
Alina Campbell
This paper will summarize the movie Glory and relate one or two characters to Aristotle, Epictetus, and Saint Augustine on character, dignity, and self-respect.
The movie Glory is based on a true story about the Commander of the 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry which was the first black regiment to be listed in the service of the United States. It is based on the letters by Col. Robert Shaw. Col. Shaw felt he was involved in something that he was not completely sure about, considering he had previously lost a lot of soldiers to battle. He was now faced with survivor's guilt which he knew would heal in time. Shaw later became a mighty leader that lead the black regiment to take on the battle in Fort Wagner. Aristotle
Character is mental and moral qualities distinctive to an individual. Aristotle believed character to be neither a feeling or a capacity or a mere tendency to act in certain ways (Sommers & Sommers, 2010). He believed instead that character was a settled condition we are in when we are well off in relation to our feelings and our actions. The virtues of character are dispositions to act in a certain way in response to similar situations. Good conduct arises from habits that in turn can only be acquired by repeated action and correction. Col. Robert Gould Shaw fits Aristotle's view of Character best in my opinion. He was not only the commander of the 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry, their voice. The black men that fought with Shaw were slaves that wanted to fight for their freedom. When Shaw was told of the United States Government planning to form this regiment of black soldiers he agreed to take the Commanding position. He then asked his best friend Major Cabot Forbes to fight along with him and Forbes accepted. At one point Shaw fights for these men to get the proper uniform and boots. He also refuses pay along with them after finding out that they are paid less than the white soldiers. Both Shaw and Forbes strongly connected with this group of men: the angry Private Trip (Denzel Washington); Private Jupiter Sharts (Jhine Kennedy); Corporal Thomas Searles (Andre Braugher), a very smart and educated man that grew up with Shaw and worked for Shaw's father, and Sgt. Maj. John Rawlins (Morgan Freeman), a runaway slave who speaks with the voice of wisdom and reason. Dignity is the state of quality of being worthy of honor or respect. Aristotle's view on dignity consists of the consciousness that we deserve honors, not in processing them. You cannot earn dignity through external awards; instead it is something you bestow upon yourself. "Dignity consists not in possessing recognition from others, but in consciousness that we deserve recognition from others" (Sommers &Sommers, 2010). The character played by Morgan Freeman, Rawlings, knew that being a slave was not worth much, so he decided to help Shaw fight the battle at Fort Wagner. Forbes also displayed dignity in the movie. Forbes was Col. Shaw's best friend and is who told Col. Shaw of this regiment. Due to the type of relationship the two had, Col. Shaw asked Forbes to come along with him to prepare the black slaves. Forbes agreed and stood by Col. Shaw and these black men through the name calling, getting the proper shoes, and receiving their uniforms like the white soldiers had while fighting in the Civil War. Aristotle describes the position of character, dignity and self- respect as character being a state concern with choice, lying in a mean relative to us, that this is determined by reason and in such a way that a man of wisdom would determine it. It is a mean between two vices that...

Chocolate Negro Made In Portugal 8 Che Mihara Dark Brown Boots
Shipping Included
This item has original tags and shows no visible signs of wear.
New in box, gorgeous Chocolate Negro Leather booties.
These are a Euro 39 but they run a full size smaller than the equivalent US size, so are actually an 8 (and a 7.5 could get away with these with socks).
About Chocolate Negro, the company, made in Portugal:
Chocolate Negro is aimed at the woman who enjoys a more audacious and bold style of fashion. Chocolate Negro derives inspiration from the leading trends and believes that a look of confidence is of the utmost importance. Just as chocolate supplies a fantastic energy boost with irrefutable rejuvenating qualities, Chocolate Negro hopes to represent a bold new passion in the lives of many women, linking shoes to total femininity.
This is a fabulous boot to wear with jeans or a long boho skirt. These are a slip on boot, with a covered leather heel. They, therefore, have an inset U shaped piece of elastic on either side for easy on and off. Almond toe adds to the feminine charm of these boots.
Chocolate Negro keeps the leather as natural as possible during their tanning and dyeing process. These are so dark brown as to be almost black. They almost look like Che Mihara's.

Beginning in 2017, Citywide Ferry Service will provide a new, affordable way to travel between waterfront communities throughout New York City.
New York City Economic Development Corporation (NYCEDC) is working with the Office of Mayor de Blasio to launch the Citywide Ferry Service. The service will consist of five new ferry routes in addition to the existing East River Ferry, charging a fare of $2.75.
The service will further the mayor's goals of:
- Providing affordable and convenient transit for communities with limited transportation options;
- Supporting growing neighborhoods; and
- Increasing the resiliency and redundancy of our city's transportation network.
When the Citywide Ferry Service is fully operational in 2018, the six routes will carry an estimated 4.6 million trips per year. Building on several years of ferry planning and operations experience, NYCEDC is leading the project by building new ferry landings, renovating existing ferry landings, and managing the contract with Hornblower, the operator providing service on behalf of the City.
Citywide Ferry Service will be launched in two phases. The Astoria, South Brooklyn, and Rockaway routes will begin operation in 2017, and the Soundview and Lower East Side routes in 2018. For more information about each route, please visit www.citywideferry.nyc or follow the links below.
Astoria | South Brooklyn | Rockaway | Soundview | Lower East Side | East River Ferry
NYCEDC is working diligently to implement the Citywide Ferry Service, first unveiled by Mayor de Blasio in his 2015 State of the City address. We have already made progress in several key areas, and have identified the remaining milestones required to execute the plan on schedule.
We have already completed several key milestones, including:
- Construction Manager Selection
- Barge Fabricator Selection
- Operator Selection
- Environmental Review
- Detailed Landing Design
Currently, we are in the process of:
Winter 2016- Fall 2017 | Waterfront Permitting |
Fall 2015- Winter 2017/2018 | Barge Fabrication and Installation |
Fall 2016- Spring 2018 | Vessel Construction |
Summer 2015- Summer 2018 | Community Outreach |
Our next steps include:
Spring 2017- Spring 2018 | Service Testing |
Spring 2017- Summer 2017 | Phase I Service Launch |
Spring 2018 | Phase II Service Launch |
Community Outreach and Engagement
Engaging with community stakeholders, elected officials, businesses, and civic organizations is an essential component of successful implementation of the Citywide Ferry Service. The initial phase of our outreach efforts involved briefings with federal and local elected officials, coordination with regulatory partners, and discussions with public and private waterfront property owners. In our current phase, we are connecting with community boards, civic organizations, advocacy groups, and local businesses. We will continue to engage with communities throughout the city as we approach the 2017 and 2018 service launches.
If you would like to host a meeting with NYCEDC about the Citywide Ferry Service or are interested in job opportunities with the private company that will be operating the service, please email us at email@example.com.
Research and Reports
Over the past several years, NYCEDC has undertaken a number of studies and pilot projects that helped us to determine the landings, routes, and service characteristics that would best support citywide ferry expansion. These include:
- The Environmental Impact Statement, which is available through CEQR Access – search by CEQR number (15DME009Y) or by project name (Citywide Ferry Service).
- Our 2013 Citywide Ferry Study, which investigated the potential for ferry service at nearly 60 sites throughout the City;
- The East River Ferry service, which began as a pilot in 2011 and has since been made permanent due to overwhelming success;
- A ferry policy and planning document that reflected on the lessons learned from the East River Ferry and identified best practices; and
- An earlier Citywide Ferry Study, released in 2011.
The Citywide Ferry Service, informed by these prior efforts, is also a key initiative in Mayor de Blasio's OneNYC plan for tackling growth, equity, sustainability, and resiliency in New York City.
