New MRI Techniquie Promises Thousands of Times More Sensitivity
Jason Mick/DailyTech
May 09, 2008
Peeking inside the human body just got a little bit easier
Some very complex, but very important research breakthroughs have recently taken place at the labs of Alexander Pines and David Wemmer at Berkeley Lab and UC Berkeley. The new breakthroughs revolve around the process of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MRIs are valuable diagnostic tools, helping to reveal detailed information on neurological, musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, and oncological structure and health. This in turn allows doctors to diagnose tumors and various other maladies.
The main problem with MRIs is that they're slow, force the patient to lie still, and lack resolution. The alternative is to take a biopsy of the possibly affected tissue, but many chemical tests must be done to analyze it. Now a new method in essence lets a highly accurate MRI, thousands of times more precise to be conducted on biopsies, allowing individual molecules to be identified, and largely eliminating the need for multiple tests.
Tradition MRI devices rely on Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) imaging; a process by which RF radiation is sent, setting molecules spinning due to their odd number of protons. Depending on the nearby structures, their spin will be altered. RF radiation is subsequently emitted from the spinning molecule, revealing if it spins "up" or "down". By measuring the number spinning up versus down, the nearby structures attached can be determined. In MRIs the spin of the molecules is traditionally enhanced used a magnetic field.
The team that developed the new technology includes team leader Leif Schröder (left) with Monica Smith, who holds a probe housing a phantom target, and Tyler Meldrum, holding a model of a biosensor's cryptophane cage.
Typically, MRIs measure spin from hydrogen atoms, an abundant element in the human body, which is largely composed of hydrocarbons. Traditional biopsy methods typically rely on chemical indicators, which change color when they detect a specific target molecule.
The new method combines NMR/MRI technology with biopsy analysis. The key is to use xenon gas molecules and a special organic molecular cage which holds them. The molecule is composed of a cage which holds xenon molecules, an intermediate organic section, and a ligand (part of the molecule which bonds to other stuff) at its end. The ligand ensures that the molecule only bonds to a specific target.
The molecules are injected along with polarized xenon gas into the sample. When the cage molecules find the target of their ligand, they bond to it. The cage then begins to depolarize xenon. This depolarized xenon is then picked up by MRI devices. This specialized type of Magnetic Resonance Imaging is dubbed Hyper-CEST for hyperpolarized xenon chemical-exchange saturation transfer.
The rate can also be temperature controlled, to improve the process. Also using multiple cage designs can improve results. The end result is a much higher accuracy version of MRI/biopsy processes. Team member Tyler Meldrum, of the Materials Sciences Division describes these benefits stating, "Slight differences in cage composition, involving only a carbon atom or two, affect the frequency of the signal from the xenon and produce distinct peaks in the NMR spectrum. If we design different cages for different xenon frequencies, we can put them all in at once and, by selectively tuning the rf pulses, see peaks at the frequencies corresponding to each kind of cage.
While this technology will likely take a while to get to market, it will likely provide a valuable diagnostic tool. The researchers have solved half the problem – the detection molecule – now the real challenge that remains is cataloguing ligands that can bind selectively to the plethora of molecules produced when stuff goes right or wrong in the human body.
This new diagnostic tool, while very promising, like many new promising drug delivery techniques, relies on the development of target molecules which can detect cancer cells or other items of interest. The problem won't be solved overnight, but by slow and steady research. This is why projects like Folding At Home remain so valuable to the medical community.

Okay okay I'm back! Betcha didn't know it but I've been posting from afar as Andrew and celebrated our wedding anniversary.
I haven't said much about life lately but things have been a little tough around here. Sickness, death, accidents, fires, family separations, for some reason our family and friends have been hit with more than their fair share. I haven't posted about it because 1) they're not really my stories to share 2) I don't like posting about failures or tragedy--it's just not something I care to dwell on and 3) despite being a blogger I really am a rather private person and have a hard time throwing family drama out for public inspection.
But having said this perhaps you'll get an idea of how much Andrew and I were looking forward to getting away for a mini-trip. Just a quick escape to enjoy the beautiful Alaska summer and remember the good things about the last 15 years. We drove 45 minutes south to Girdwood and checked into The Alyeska Prince Hotel (or The Hotel Alyeska) at the base of Mount Alyeska.
The room, the view, the weather, the dinner at The Double Musky Inn, the pearl bracelet (woo hoo my man has good taste), everything was perfect until 2 am when we were rocked out of our luscious king-sized heavenly fluffy bed by the sound of an alarm blaring and a man's voice saying, "Your attention please. A fire has been reported in the building, please evacuate immediately. Do not use the elevators. . . "
Then the alarms went crazy and lights flashed. After the way our lives have been lately we totally thought we were going to die. We just expected it, given the way our family's luck had been going lately--that this was the Other Shoe we'd been waiting to have drop and stomp us out.
Stumbling through hallways with the other guests, it took a while to get down (we had requested a room on the top) and soon we were mingling in the parking lot glad to be outside and watching things go down.
Half an hour later they determined it was a false alarm and we were allowed to re-enter but can you imagine how jittery we were after that? I couldn't get back to sleep for an hour and then was brutally hit by the alarm again at 7:21 when the scene was repeated. The alarm turned off quicker this time but it happened three or four more times that morning. Sure makes for a pins-and-needles experience when you can't decide whether to get in the shower for fear of having the alarm go off. Do you go down to breakfast and run the risk of having to leave your meal for another evacuation? What if they're wrong and it really is a fire and after we start ignoring the false alarms we all get burned up in our beds?
Yes, my mind jumped to a few conclusions but given our history can you blame us?
The real kicker was that when we were awakened the second time and went to leave we noticed that even with the chaos the staff had kindly been around and left the traditional "Expedited Checkout" card under the door. Maybe Alyeska's idea of an "Expedited Checkout" is different from other hotels, complete with mood-enhancing emergency sirens, but I couldn't help but think that when they advertised a romantic "getaway" package what they really meant "Get Away! Run for your lives!"
We comforted ourselves with the thought that we'd at least probably get a voucher for a free night's stay or something to comfort us through the night's irritation but no, they expected a full payment. Evidently that Towering Inferno ambiance doesn't come cheap.
I'm including footage from the evening's excitement--how often does one see a hotel fire drill anyway? Notice how bright it was even at 2 am even in a wooded mountain region? That's Alaska at solstice for you. And if you're looking into a night's stay at the Alyeska Prince better bring your ear plugs. You're going to need them.

Posted on September 7, 2012
Somebody brought us an entire box of books on Graphology this week. It contained some of the common or garden variety graphology books as well as deeper studies of the subject, and a book or two on the applications of Graphology in modern business.
Somebody else wandered past and inquired, "Where are you going to put all that stuff on Handwriting Analysis?"
This was actually the subject of a brief argument back around 1987, with the opposing camps holding out for Science Fiction/Fantasy/New Age and How To. The more stubborn camp won out, and Graphology, or Handwriting Analysis, has ever since been placed in How To, or, in more recent years How To – Hands.
We've been having these arguments about How To ever since we put in the category. I found one volunteer putting a stack of French textbooks on that shelf one year. "Well, they're about How To Learn French," she told me.
Books on How To Buy Stock fluctuate almost as wildly as the Dow, sometimes winding up in How To but other times getting stacked in Business. I sort of agree with my mentor, who divvied them up between the two categories. "That way, everybody can find them," she said. I also kind of see the point of my more rigid control freaks, who want to know why just any subject can't go into How To, then. "Here's a book on How To Travel in China," they say, "And this one's How To Watch Birds. Oh, and all these cookbooks are How To Cook, aren't they?"
They are being facetious. (And, anyhow, to hear the Cookbook Lady discuss it, some of those are about How NOT To Cook.) There have to be some rules at this Book Fair, if only to make sure the books on Donald Duck don't wind up in Nature.
Other arguments deal with the dividing line between How To – Hands and How To – Head (or, as one volunteer put it, How To Build a Bookcase and How To Feel Good About Yourself.) Since raising a child involves both head games and hands on experience, there is a constant friction between those people who want it in the one division and those who want it in the other. (One year, a volunteer solved this by taking them all and putting them in Women's Studies. I can see her logic, twisted though it is, but I was asked "Why is this book on How To Be a Good Father in Women's Studies?")
I try to explain that the one category is involved mainly with mental and emotional improvement and the other involves things you do with your hands. Somebody always brings up the books on American Sign Language at this point, but Uncle Blogsy is too sly to be caught in that trap. He smiles an innocent smile and says, "What about Foreign Language?" and sneaks out of the room while people argue whether anything American can be a foreign language.
You ant to know how to How To? Here's a rule: How To is for any book that tells you how to do something that doesn't have a category of its own. How To Act is going to find its new owners in Show Biz, while How To Play the Banjolele is happiest in Music. How To Fix a Toilet Tank really has no other place to go but into How To –Hands, where it can sit near How To Make Your Studio Apartment Look Like a Chateau in Provence, At Least On a Sunny Day. How To Take Photographs, meanwhile, goes to Photography, How To Draw Ferns into Art, and How To Write a Vampire Romance After Your Own Death will be in Books and Authors.
And just a word to the volunteer who kept asking me if all those magazines on How To Build Model Trains shouldn't be in Games, or in Children, or in Transportation: You were on the right track. If I had thought to tie you there before the 5:15 came through, I might know How To Avoid Ulcers.

President Barack Obama has said his administration would promote the expansion of toxic fracking in radioactive shale — not just at home but across the globe. His plan to simply replace one form of dirty energy (coal) with another (natural gas) is not only counterproductive in regards to climate change; it unfairly places the cost of the response to the climate crisis on the shoulders of Americans living above the shale fields.
While I'm excited to see the president acknowledge a need to convert to renewable energy, the latest science tells us a transition to natural gas is not only unnecessary, it will actually accelerate global warming. Over a 20-year time horizon, fugitive methane emissions alone are 72 times more potent than carbon dioxide as a greenhouse gas, according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.
When leaking methane reacts with certain atmospheric aerosols, its global warming potential could reach 105 times the heat-trapping potential of carbon dioxide. With numbers that high, a mere one to three percent loss of methane into the atmosphere would make the switch to natural gas worse for the climate.
Obama recommends we go all-in with fracking just as the data start to show a fatal flaw in the process that puts our rural communities at risk of contaminated groundwater.


text: David Sellens III has experienced one of the greatest sorrows in his life and one of his greatest joys in a little more than a year's time.On March 24, 2012 Yreka Miners head football coach Oryln Culp brought him into his office and told him the news that David's beloved father, David Sellens II had passed away. On Wednesday, in the same office, and Sellens added, in the exact same chair, Culp told David he had received a letter that Sellens had been accepted as a preferred walk-on with the USC Trojans football team as an offensive lineman."It's all been so crazy and surreal," David said. "It's a great opportunity for me."As he heard the good news about USC, his thoughts turned to his father. "I think he would be very proud," Sellens III said. "He was always telling me I could play on that level, but I just brushed it aside and figured he was just being a proud dad."While the 6-foot-4, 265-pound senior was a standout for the Miners this past fall on both the offensive and defensive line with his combination of size and speed, Sellens did not receive a lot of interest from four-year schools. He had decided to sign with a two-year school, the College of the Siskiyous in nearby Weed, before the unexpected opportunity to head to USC presented itself.Now, he still has to wait to see what kind of scholarships and financial aid packages he will receive before he knows for certain if he is heading to USC. Culp said that at this point, it is "very likely," David will head to USC, although there is still a chance that things could fall through, especially if he does not receive enough financial aid and scholarships.On Feb 8., before he left to make the long drive to Susanville to watch the Miners play Lassen in basketball, Culp received an e-mail from Ed Orgeron, the assistant head coach at USC, if he knew of any offensive or defensive lineman that may have "fallen through the cracks.""Honestly, I read the e-mail, thought about West Valley's and Central Valley's guys and realized their top (guys) were all juniors, so I left the e-mail and left for Lassen with my wife," he said.When Culp got back to work from a three-day weekend the following Tuesday, the e-mail was still open, and he read it again and thought of Sellens. "I decided, "why not?," and I sent David's highlight film to them and didn't think about it again," he said.Coach Culp received an e-mail from Orgeron that Friday, which said that he felt David, "could help us out at USC," and asked for his transcripts. "I immediately sent the transcripts and then the waiting began," Culp said. And on Wednesday, when an official letter came to Culp saying David has been accepted to USC as a preferred walk-on with the football program it all became a reality. Culp added that "this is completely a "walk-on" opportunity, but, Scott Thompson, head of player personnel, indicated they are planning on David coming in and competing to play right away. He said that because of USC's sanctions and the fact that they need offensive linemen, David will get every opportunity to contribute immediately."Due to current NCAA sanctions, USC is limited in the number of scholarship players they have and are looking at other ways to find players, such as offering players with potential like Sellens preferred walk-on status.What caught the attention of USC, Culp said, was "his size, academics, and his ability to run block.""This whole situation is so unique," Culp added. Orlyn said it's very difficult for players to get noticed in the Northern Section since it is quite spread out, with a good portion of the schools several hours away from bigger cities. Culp said when he sends information to college coaches about players from the section, he reminds them that several players from the Northern Section have had successful college and pro careers. One example he gives involves a lightly recruited quarterback from Pleasant Valley High School in Chico who first went to Butte, the local community college, before moving on to a four-year school. That player was Green Bay Packers starting signal caller Aaron Rodgers.Culp could recall only one former Miner that played for a Divsion1 Football Bowl Subdivision program. That player was Andy Conner, who was a linebacker for the Miners and graduated from the school in 1987. He went on to play for the University of Oregon and in the NFL. While Sellens initially had some interest his junior year from Division 1 University of Nevada, Reno, the coach who pursued David left and the interest waned. A few smaller college programs such as Pacific University in Oregon and Whittier in Southern California showed interest as well. Before USC came calling, Sellens said he had planned to attend Colleges of the Siskiyous in Weed and play football, which he said he was more than content with. After all, the program has sent a number of players on to four-year schools. Recently, linebacker Myke Tavarres signed with SEC power Arkansas and safety Davd Guthrie signed with the University of New Mexico.If things don't work out with USC, Sellens said that he is still quite excited to play at a good JC program like COS and continue his football career.Sellens said his family has been ecstatic about the news, with a few family members screaming into the phone in excitement when he told them about what happened. He also is quite pleased that USC is near his older sister who lives in Anaheim, and said that if he goes to USC it will be nice to have a family member near by.Culp said that he believes David has the ability to play for USC."It's a great opportunity for him," Culp said. "Now, it's all up to David."While it will be a challenge, Sellens said he is just pleased to potentially have the opportunity to play for the Trojans."I'm just going to go out and work as hard as I possibly can," he said. "If I do that, regardless of what happens, I'll have no regrets."Regardless of what happens with football, Sellens said getting an education at a school the caliber of USC is a top priority for him. Currently, he hopes to major in either business or communications if he goes to USC."I just want to do well and be a good student," he said.

Dot foundation starting at center of face and buff and blend downward outward until desired coverage is achieved.
Made in China.
About the Collection
During his 20 years of experience in the beauty industry, Dimitri James was disappointed to learn that very little of the money cosmetics companies spend goes into product development and perfection. Instead, the money is spent on ad campaigns, department store counter space, Park Avenue offices and fancy packaging. Frustrated by his findings, Dimitri was inspired to start changing the beauty industry for the better, launching Skinn Cosmetics in 2002.
Dimitri's focus was to create a collection of quality products that helps consumers avoid big-cost items with no results. Skinn Cosmetics has long since established itself as a revolutionary leader in skin care and cosmetics, offering treatments and color products loaded with anti-aging properties that meet the highest professional and esthetician standards. Each day, new women are discovering the line's amazing results and joining the ranks of Skinn enthusiasts across the nation.
Skinn products are not tested on animals.
About the Guest
Founder and CEO of Skinn Cosmetics, Dimitri James has been a Hollywood makeup artist, aesthetician and cosmetologist for 25 years. He's worked for some of the biggest names in beauty, and has manufactured and sold his own cosmetics for 14 years. Each product is a result of Dimitri's experience and knowledge, and is produced in his own factory for superior quality every step of the way.
Since its founding, Skinn has been dedicated to offering the best color and skin care products available. The line features cutting-edge and anti-aging properties that are free of the unnecessary fillers found in many large cosmetic brands.
"I love creating state-of-the-art products and offering them to my customers at a reasonable price, so that every woman who wants to can look her best." -Dimitri James

Mayor Carleton E. Carey Sr. encouraged all city of Dover residents in mobile homes and flood prone areas to evacuate as the formidable Hurricane Sandy gathered strength and approached landfall in the Diamond State.
Similar action has been taken in the city of Wilmington as well as Middletown farther north, and Gov. Jack Markell issued a limited state of emergency meant to facilitate the evacuation of the coastal communities in New Castle, Kent and Sussex counties. The National Weather Service had already issued coastal flood warnings for Rehoboth Beach and the rest of the resort area from 4 p.m. Sunday until midnight Tuesday, and state officials had already closed Del. Route 1 between Bethany and Dewey beaches Sunday morning due to that coastal flooding.
Back in Dover, city officials urged those did not have friends or family that they could stay with to go to shelters opening at noon Sunday. For Kent County, Dover High School or Smyrna Middle School were the designated shelters. There would also be a shelter opening in Milford.
"The importance of planning and preparing for your own safety is important," Carey said. "We need to be sure that our crews and staff are safe as well."
Those heading to one of the shelters are urged to bring blankets/sleeping bags, pillows, any medications that are necessary, toiletries and something to help pass time, Dover Public Affairs & Emergency Emergency Management Coordinator Kay Dietz-Sass said. Suggested items for children are books, cards and other small items.
It is very realistic to expect to lose electricity with Hurricane Sandy, Dietz-Sass said.
"Crews will get to all areas where outages are as soon as it is safe to do so," Dietz-Sass said. "This may take a substantial amount of time.
"We do encourage people to make sure they can take care of themselves for a few days," she said. "Of course, you can't be out in 70 mile per hour winds trying to repair a power line in a bucket truck. Sometimes, we have to wait for the storm to pass through before our people go out. Safety has to be our priority."
More information will be made available on the City of Dover website at www.cityofdover.com and on the City of Dover Facebook page.

On Tuesday evening, the Montevideo City Council took care of a number of business items, including approving the 2013 tax levy.
On Tuesday evening, the Montevideo City Council took care of a number of business items, including approving the 2013 tax levy.
The 2013 tax levy comes to $1,866,700, which is the same as the preliminary budget proposed in September. This reflects an increase from the 2012 tax levy of $1,812,300.
The levy includes the general operating fund — which consists of the general fund, library levy and Economic Development Authority — of $1,273,700. It also includes a specy levy for tax abatement of $3,000 and $590,000 for debt service.
The city also approved the 2013 budget, which shows revenues at $11,919,305 and expenditures at $11,832,473.
In other business, the city council agreed to a request to add street lights along Town Road. Five street lights will be added, along with another two on Ridgeview Drive. To help defer the costs of such a project, street lights are being moved from Smith Addition, where some of the streets have been abandoned.
Plans were also made to move forward with some of the proposed street projects for 2013. Street improvements will be done on Sheridan Avenue, from Eleventh Street to Seventeenth Street (estimated cost of $565,000), Park Avenue from Ninth Street to 17 Street (estimated cost of $693,000) and the fairgrounds entrance off Trunk Highway 2012 (estimated cost of $15,000). There will also be paving done at Smith Park and the Cemetery (estimated cost of $50,000). All of the projects are estimated to cost a total of $1,323,000.

Missouri State Pension for Ex-Confederate Soldiers
Source: Carl Woodrow Thurman, Jr. Collection #15.1.a
Staff Person: Jonathan Dembo
Description: James T. Thurman, aged 72, and still suffering from a Civil War wound to his thigh, "weak lungs" and a "chronic cough", submitted this pension application, on 18 June 1913, to the Adjutant General's Office, in Jefferson City, Missouri. After a long life of physical labor, he could do no more. His physical condition, he said, made it impossible for him "to do manual labor" any more and he needed financial assistance. Like many Confederate soldiers, Thurman was illiterate and required the assistance of Notary Public Hemmit Dale to complete the application form. His "mark" is visible between the J. and T. of his "signature." The application is marked "approved & service papers returned" and dated 9 July 1913. Thurman's pension application is accompanied by two documents: a "Memorandum of Service" and an Adjutant General's certificate authenticating his Civil War service. The documents indicate that Thurman was a resident of Bloomington, Macon County, Missouri and had enlisted as a private in Company B, 5th Missouri Regiment Infantry Volunteers in Springfield, Missouri, on 11 January 1862. Thurman had previously served in Company F, 4th Regiment, 3rd Division of the Missouri National Guard.
The document may be more significant for what is doesn't say. It doesn't say how Thurman served honorably throughout the war until he was paroled after the surrender in April 1865. The 5th Regiment, under the command of Col. James McCown, Lt. Col. Robert S. Bevier, and Maj. Owen A. Waddell, was involved in nearly continuous combat during the war. It fought at Iuka (19 Sept. 1862) and Corinth, Mississippi (3-4 Oct. 1862), Lexington, Tennessee (18 Dec. 1862) and at Pea Ridge [Elkhorn Tavern] Arkansas (7-8 Mar. 1862), where it was part of Brig. Gen. John S. Bowen's command. Thurman got his thigh wound from a shell fragment at Pea Ridge. It participated in the simultaneous battles of Grand Gulf (29 April, 3 May 1863) and Port Gibson, Mississippi (30 April – 1 May 1863) while defending Vicksburg. A few weeks later the regiment fought at Champion's Hall, also known as Baker's Creek (16 May 1863). The 5th was captured en masse, on 4 July 1863, when Vicksburg fell to Gen. Ulysses S. Grant's forces and spent several months as prisoners of war. The harshness of the siege and subsequent captivity can only be guessed. Gen. Bowen never recovered from the effects and died on 13 July 1863. After an exchange of prisoners, the understrength 5th joined Brig. Gen. Francis M. Cockrell's Brigade and was consolidated with the 3rd Regiment, and served with General John Bell Hood's army in Tennessee (Nov. 1864-Jan. 1865) and during the Atlanta Campaign (1 May – 8 Sept. 1864) where it fought at Allatoona (5 Oct. 1864). Transferred to to the defense of Mobile (17 Mar. – 12 April 1865) it participated in the Battle of Fort Blakely, Alabama (1-9 April 1865).
The 5th, which mustered 476 men in May 1862, suffered staggering casualties during the war. It lost 6 killed, 62 wounded, and 19 missing at Corinth; 4 killed, 49 wounded and 37 missing at Champion's Hill; 20 killed and 52 wounded during the siege of Vicksburg; the combined 5th/3rd Regiment lost a total of 128 casualties (killed and wounded) during the Atlanta Campaign (18 May – 5 September 1864) alone. It lost hundreds more by disease and desertion. By the end of the war there were few left to surrender. The survivors of the bloodbath, including James T. Thurman, then faded from history.

State: Poquonnock Bridge district has options to consider before bankruptcy
Groton - The financially troubled Poquonnock Bridge Fire District has two options short of bankruptcy that it has not yet explored, according to the under secretary for legislative affairs in the state's Office of Policy and Management.
Under Secretary Gian-Carl Casa said Wednesday that state law allows a fire district to issue a supplemental tax bill to residents if funds are insufficient to pay yearly expenses.
Casa said this power is intended to prevent bankruptcies.
In addition, the state's Municipal Finance Advisory Commission, whose members are appointed by the governor, works with municipalities referred by the secretary of OPM to provide financial help.
The eight-member commission can require a fire district's chief executive officer to appear and discuss finances, to take remedial action to improve finances and to submit written reports of what actions it has taken based on commission recommendations. The commission also may review audits, budgets, accounting and other district financial practices.
The commission includes four financial or executive officers of municipalities, three non-officers with financial or other expertise and one representative of the OPM.
The tax rate in Poquonnock Bridge is 5.2 mills, based on the current budget. The owner of property assessed at $200,000 would pay $1,040 in annual taxes. The Poquonnock Bridge tax rate is the highest among Groton's nine fire districts.
Legal advice
Glenn Carberry, a lawyer for the Poquonnock Fire District board, said the board has asked his firm and a special counsel from a Providence law firm to look at any possible financial remedies.
"We're in the process of doing that and expect that there will be a broad list of options made available for them to consider," he said.
District board member Deb Monteiro said she knows the board may levy a supplemental tax. She said she has suggested that, but some other members won't support it.
Monteiro said she believes the board is creating more debt by seeking legal advice about bankruptcy.
"Who do you think is going to pay all these legal fees in the long run?" she said. "The taxpayers are going to wind up paying much more for their fire district than if they'd just established a reasonable budget."
Discussion at the fire district so far has centered on a possible bankruptcy filing or receivership, and trying to come up with a way to make the district's funds last through the fiscal year. But bankruptcy would require approval of the governor, Casa said.
Union wins
The district board also learned last week that it must honor a 10-year union contract that provides annual wage increases of 3 percent.
The State Board of Labor Relations ruled in favor of the firefighters' union Aug. 28. The decision means the fire district must pay back wages and benefits it owes from the date of the agreement in July 2012, and must notify the labor board within 30 days of how it has corrected the situation. Fire Chief Todd Paige said the district would need about $400,000 more this fiscal year to honor the contract.
The board's next regular meeting is at 7 p.m. Thursday at the Groton Senior Center.
Lori Watrous, a member of Representative Town Meeting and a resident of Poquonnock Bridge, said she believes the district should go back to taxpayers and ask for more money.
"There's something about that word, 'bankrupt,' that's not right," she said. "If you know what those obligations are, you're supposed to fulfill them."
She said the board knew $3.5 million wasn't enough to run the fire district when the amount was proposed at its annual meeting. Board Chairman Alan Ackley put forth the figure but said in an earlier interview that he thought it would be amended.
Debt remains
Casa said another option would be for fire district residents to vote to end the district's existence. But, he said, taxpayers would still have to pay the remaining bills even if this were done.
If the district dissolved and the town didn't want to take over, it's unclear what would happen next, Casa said. But, he said, the burden of sorting things out ultimately could fall on the town's shoulders. The town then potentially could levy a supplemental tax on fire district residents.
"We don't believe the statutes are clear," he said. "Ultimately, someone's going to have to pay that debt, and ultimately someone is going to have to take responsibility for providing fire service in that district. And I don't know who else would do it but the town."
Professor Mark Robbins, head of the department of public policy at the University of Connecticut, said special taxing districts are common and may be deeply rooted.
Some districts were started more than 100 years ago because residents needed fire protection and set up a taxing district to pay for it, he said. The Poquonnock Bridge Fire District was established in 1943.
Meanwhile, the government and community have grown. But people often maintain strong ties to a district, Robbins said.
"You don't see local towns giving up their charters and regionalizing into county governments," he said.
Like a local government, fire districts are obligated to follow their charters when taxing residents, to file financial statements and to meet their financial obligations, Robbins said.
In Poquonnock Bridge, one of the key questions has been whether taxpayers have the right to refuse to pay to support union contracts.
Robbins said there are legal questions about whether government can walk away voluntarily from long-term obligations or whether they can be forced to honor them even if taxpayers refuse.
He said the standard for many municipal labor disputes has been taxpayers' ability to pay, not their willingness to pay. There may be obligations that taxpayers can't decline to pay because they're legal obligations, he said.

The Violence Against Women Act remains unresolved in the halls of the U.S. Congress.
The act, designed to protect women against various crimes, has been in existence since 1994.
However, the act expired on Jan. 1 because Congress did not renew the legislation.
The Violence Against Women Act remains unresolved in the halls of the U.S. Congress.
The act, designed to protect women against various crimes, has been in existence since 1994.
However, the act expired on Jan. 1 because Congress did not renew the legislation.
One of the main reasons the U.S. House of Representatives did not pass the act has to do with violence against women on Indian reservations. It's an obscure situation of which many people are simply unaware.
The problem has to do with jurisdiction on tribal lands.
Under current law, non-native people who commit acts against Native Americans are subject to prosecution only by the federal government.
That is a fact hardly anyone is talking about in the national discussion.
Most people are saying that if a non-native person commits a violent act, there is no method to prosecute and they simply can get away with the crime.
That is false.
What current law actually states is the cases fall under federal jurisdiction. What that means is those cases fall into the jurisdiction of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and offices of U.S. Attorneys across the country.
That's where the problem arises.
Federal prosecutors rarely take on cases like assault or even rape.
This is not right but that's how the system works. In many cases, prosecutors and FBI agents say they are too busy handling "major" crimes like murder and drug rings.
That may be the case, but what happens is victims of assault fall through the cracks and the cases go untouched.
It's an interesting dichotomy on reservations because jurisdictional issues become muddled.
In many cases, not only are there tribal police and courts, but there are county and city jurisdictions as well as federal jurisdiction. It makes for a mess when it comes to prosecution.
It is somewhat understandable why some believe tribal courts should not have jurisdiction over non-tribal members. As sovereign nations, Indian tribes deal within their own ranks. Dealing outside of those ranks is not as cut and dried in federal law.
The real issue here is the lack of manpower, and effort, from the federal government to make sure crimes are punished to the fullest extent of the law.
For years and years, the federal government has supported people on reservations, but it has generally been a failure. Throwing money at problems like alcoholism and corruption generally makes the system worse.
But in this case, money is the answer when it comes to having enough people to prosecute crimes — especially violent crimes against women.
The only real solution to this is to have a sufficient amount of federal agents on Indian lands so these crimes can be handled in a timely and proper manner.
The sad part about this entire situation is how many other people are being hurt by this law not being renewed — and they have no connection to crimes on Indian reservations.
Women around the country are being subjected to antiquated rules and they are at risk.
All because the federal government cannot provide the necessary resources to protect Native Americans who reside on reservations.
This is simply an unacceptable situation. Human beings are now at risk all thanks to inaction on the part of the government.
There are some simple solutions to this problem but nobody wants to address the real needs. More federal agents are needed on reservations. It is that simple.
Yet nobody is talking about that and, instead, you get partisan bickering and no action by Congress.
That should not surprise anyone, given the track record recently in Congress.
But you can't ignore the fact women are being put into danger because of that inaction.
It is simply unacceptable.

GIBSONIA — One person died Saturday morning in a fire in Richland Township.
The Allegheny County medical examiner's office said one person is dead following a house fire in the North Hills suburbs.
But investigators say the cause of the person's death and the person's identity may not be released until Monday as the probe continues.
Emergency dispatchers say fire crews were sent to the home about 3 a.m. Saturday.
It was not immediately clear how the fire began, nor whether anybody else was in the home at the time.

How can this be? Today is Wilford Brimley's birthday, and the actor turns 77. If you asked me to guess, I would have said he was almost that old in The Thing, which came out in 1982.

BUTLER TWP — A new hotel may be coming to the township.
A Holiday Inn Express is proposed to be built on 3 acres on North Duffy Road, just north of the Wal-Mart off Route 356.
Jesse Hines, township zoning officer, said the hotel will have 80 rooms and be four stories tall.
The land development application was submitted to the township March 5, and planning is in the early stages.
"We don't have anything definitive yet," said township manager Ed Kirkwood.
The township planning commission will hear details on the hotel for the first time at 6 p.m. Tuesday when hotel officials will reveal more details.

SLIPPERY ROCK — A drug sale was undone Friday night after the alleged buyers made the mistake of parking illegally in a handicapped space.
Tyler J. Dagres, 19, of Grove City and a freshman at Slippery Rock University, was charged with possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of a small amount of marijuana and corruption of minors after SRU police allege he tried to sell about an ounce of marijuana to a 15-year-old.
According to court documents, SRU police noticed a green Buick sedan in a handicapped parking space on Campus Drive near Rhoads Hall. They went up to the car, intending to tell the driver to move.
But as officers approached, they saw someone reach into the car through the rear, driver's side window.
The individual, later identified as Dagres, was ordered to put his hands in the air, at which point police allegedly saw a baggie of marijuana poking out of his sleeve. That 1.9-ounce bag and another bag, allegedly in plain view on the car seat and weighing 14.8 grams, were confiscated and Dagres was arrested.
It is unknown whether anyone in the car was charged, and SRU police were unavailable by telephone Saturday morning for comment.

|The 1943 film Lassie Come Home
|Season 7
"Assie Come Home" is the one hundred and thirty-fifth episode of Futurama, the twenty-first of the seventh production season and the eighth of the tenth broadcast season. It aired on 31 July, 2013, on Comedy Central. Bender searches the universe for his missing shiny metal rear end.
After the crew is sent to a planet ruled by gangsters, Bender has all his parts stolen, and it's up to Fry and Leela to find them. They contact the police and find Yuri, who sold Bender's parts, and he gives them a list of all the buyers. After traversing across the galaxy collecting all the parts, the only one left to find is Bender's ass, which unfortunately was on a space ship that sank in a gaseous space sea. The crew then goes to said sea and meet Tarquin, the local keeper of a poorly lit lighthouse, who helps them salvage the ship and recover the ass plate, much to Bender's joy, but they soon find out that Bender's ass is a better reflector than the one in the lighthouse, forcing Bender to part with it to ensure that scurvy cursing sailors do not die at sea, thus being unable to spread curse words. After returning to Earth, Bender is heartbroken and depressed because of his loss, but his friends assure him that he should be happy that his ass is doing some good. Meanwhile, back at the lighthouse, Tarquin is spending some quality time with Bender's shining ass while reading a Bible, but just then the rotating device goes out of control and flings the ass plate out of the lighthouse. The ass plate then flies off and saves a boy who fell into a gravity well, and then continues to fly all the way back to Earth, where it reunites with a happy Bender in Planet Express. However, back on the gaseous sea, ships are crashing everywhere due to the lighthouse having lost its reflector.
On 5 February, 2013, Vulture.com released a preview clip for the tenth broadcast season,[1] which contained footage from the episode.
By 26 July, Comedy Central had released a two-minute preview clip featuring a fight between the crud gang and the blip gang. [2]

Additional Information
- The episode's title caption is very similar to that of "Möbius Dick", which was also the eighth episode of its broadcast season, and also featured a sea setting.
- The ship's deck is filled with crates. The first labelled crate to be seen supposedly contains the Ark of the Covenant, which was the focus of the first Indiana Jones film, and the third labelled crate to be seen supposedly contains the Holy Grail, which was the focus of the third Indiana Jones film. The fourth crate contains the jewel from the 1997 film Titanic, which was released after the 1980s Indiana Jones trilogy.
- In "Space Pilot 3000", upon being told to "bite my shiny metal ass" by Bender, Fry remarks that "it doesn't look so shiny to me". However, in this episode it is shown that Bender's ass shines brighter than "the brightest object in the known universe", i.e. the original lighthouse light.
- The piece of music that plays at the Galactic Bazaar is used on the main menu for the second disc of Volume 8.
- According to the commentary, the episode's title was Ken Keeler's idea.
- Click here to see cultural mentions made in this episode.
- The episode's title is a reference to the 1943 movie Lassie Come Home, directed by Fred M. Wilcox.
- The concept of a planet run by gangs may be a reference to the Star Trek episode "A Piece of the Action".
- The blips and the cruds are named after the African American gangs the Bloods and the Crips.
- The concept of a planet whose inhabitants are separated based on different placement of the same two colors is reminiscent of the planet Cheron, as seen in the Star Trek episode "Let That Be Your Last Battlefield".
- Peoples α is very similar in colour and design to the city of Detroit in the video game Deus Ex: Human Revolution, where rival gangs are a major plot point.
- Fry getting his head stuck in a honey jar marked "HUNNY" is a reference to the fictional bear Winnie-the-Pooh. He also says "Oh, bother", which was Pooh's catchphrase.
- Fry asks Leela if she thinks that they "walked straight outta Blipton". Blipton is a reference to Compton, California, which is in the vicinity of where the Bloods and the Crips originated. It may also be a reference to the tea brand Lipton. The phrase "straight outta Blipton" is likely a reference to the N.W.A album Straight Outta Compton.
- Many robots from other works are seen in the chop shop.
- C-3PO, from the Star Wars franchise
- The title character from the 1999 film The Iron Giant
- Rosie the Robot Maid, from the animated sitcom The Jetsons
- What appear to be the robot versions of Bill and Ted from the 1991 film Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey
- Alpha 5, from the children's TV series Mighty Morphin Power Rangers
- The title character from the anime TV series Tetsujin 28-go, adapted in the United States as Gigantor
- A Dalek, from the science-fiction TV series Doctor Who
- A Cylon, from the Battlestar Galactica franchise
- At Hedonismbot's mansion, a scientist from the Academy of Inventors is spanked by a robot resembling R2-D2.
- The hospital's name may be a reference to the Christian martyred saints Faith, Hope, and Charity.
- The name "Sargaseous Sea", which Leela pronounces as "Sargashes Sea", is a pun on the name "Sargasso Sea" and the word "gaseous".
- The lighthouse, its tenant, and his lines reference the 2005 video game Half-Life 2: Lost Coast.
- According to the commentary, the name "Tarquin" is a play on "Quint", the name of a character in the 1975 film Jaws.
- The bathysphere and diving suits reference the 2010 video game BioShock 2.
- Tarquin's boat is marked "FLOTSAM & JETSON", a reference to the maritime terms "flotsam" and "jetsam" and The Jetsons.
- The head of a corpse missing an eye floating out of the ship's wreckage mirrors an identical scene in Jaws.
- Johnny being the name of a boy trapped in a well may be a reference to the 1899 film Ding, Dong, Dell, Johnny's in the Well.
- When Fry and Leela are looking at the blips' reflection in the mirror, the thing that Leela wears on her wrist is on her left arm, even though only the aliens are in the mirror.
- When Bender is found by Fry and Leela, he only has his mouth and eyes. However, since he doesn't have a brain, he shouldn't be able to speak.
- There may be a secondary brain inside his mouth or his eyes.
- It's possible that his brain still controlled his eyes and mouth wirelessly, just as his arms have been seen to move independently in various episodes.
- Without his ass, Bender has a lot of exposed circuitry, but, in "The Devil's Hands Are Idle Playthings", his container unit is shown to be empty.
- Bender's design constantly changes throughout the show. This may be due to Bender getting modifications.
Fry: Uhm, Leela, remember when we were trying to guess what would happen if someone stuck a gun in my face and you said I'd probably crap my pants? Well...
Moustached crud: We are the cruds, but we're over here. And don't shoot. That crate is a gift from us.
Leela: What?!
Fry: Huh?!
Blip #2: For real?!
Moustached crud: There's been enough violence on these streets, too many lives and mirrors have been shattered, so yo, we sent you a crate o' weapons as a sign o' trust. Together, we can use them to rid our streets of the real enemy: giant spiders!
Fry: I knew it!
Bender: They stole everything except my mouth and eyes! I guess they didn't like all my screamin' and winkin'.
Ship captain: I thought we were near the rocks, but I don't see the lighthouse, so...everything is fine and we can relax. [He speaks through the intercom.] All hands on deck...for mojitos.
[Bender is sat looking miserable at the table in the Planet Express employee lounge, whilst Fry, Leela, Amy, Hermes and Zoidberg are sat watching the TV.]
Amy: Bender, come join us, we're watching Rear Window!
Bender: I used to stick my rear out the window...
Zoidberg: If you prefer, we could watch Behind the Music.
Bender: My behind used to make music...
Hermes: Backdraft is on.
Bender: Even my ass wouldn't watch that.
