Narrow-band UVB induces apoptosis in human keratinocytes

Narrow-band UVB induces apoptosis in human keratinocytes

Narrow-band ultraviolet (NB-UVB) phototherapy emits mostly 311/312 nm light and is commonly used in the treatment of inflammatory skin disorders. As a source of UVB irradiation, NB-UVB causes apoptosis in T lymphocytes but its effects on keratinocytes are unknown. Herein, we have investigated the ability of NB-UVB to induce apoptosis in keratinocytes. Two types of human keratinocytes, primary and immortalized, were exposed to NB-UVB and broad-band UVB (BB-UVB; 315–280 nm) and tested for apoptosis. Both UVB light sources induced apoptosis in keratinocytes as determined by the presence of DNA ladders, although NB-UVB required approximately ten fold higher doses; NB-UVB (1000 mJ/cm2) and BB-UVB (125 mJ/cm2). By comparison, lower doses of NB-UVB (750 mJ/cm2) induced apoptosis in T lymphocytes, suggesting cell type specificity for NB-UVB induced apoptosis. Approximately, 50% or more of the cells underwent apoptosis when exposed to NB-UVB or BB-UVB as revealed by TUNEL assay. Electron micrographs showed that NB-UVB irradiated keratinocytes contained marked chromatin condensation, extensive cytoplasmic vacuolization and fragmentation of the nuclear envelope. Furthermore, Western blot analysis confirmed the presence of activated products of caspase 3 in keratinocytes that received apoptotic doses of NB-UVB. This study defines conditions by which NB-UVB irradiation causes apoptosis in keratinocytes.

Vivid Audio Announces G1 Speakers

Vivid Audio is clearly in the Christmas spirit with their new high-end Elf speakers. Well, they’re not really called Elf, but with their little curly-cue dealio at the top, they should be…

The new G1 speakers were designed by Laurence Dickie, famed member of the team who developed the Nautilus series of speakers at B&W. His background probably explains for the Elfish curly-cue at the top, but the Giya sports some other unique features including side-mounted, dual 12″ woofers with mechanically coupled magnets, and tweeter and midrange domes that utilize Vivid’s patented tube loading to achieve reduction in back waves and superior performance.

Vivid’s new aluminum bass woofers were designed in-house and use a dynamic short coil, long gap magnet construction. The Curly-Cue is actually functional and Vivid claims it not only loads the bass, but also prevents audible standing waves.

The Vivid G1 comes is a variety of colors using automotive paint finishes.

â€¢ Frequency Range: 23Hz to 44kHz (30Hz – 40kHz +/- 2dB)
â€¢ Sensitivity: 91dB, 6 ohm nominal, 4 ohm minimum
â€¢ Power handling: 800 watts
â€¢ Weight: 154lbs
â€¢ Size: 67″h x 14″w x 31.5″ d

The Vivid G1 costs $54,000 and will be available sometime in January 2008. More information on the Vivid G1 speakers.

MixVibes Set To Unleash CrossDJ App For iPad

MixVibes has released the CrossDJ for Apple’s iPad. CrossDJ was developed by the same software team who developed the award-winning Cross, and hopes to capitalize on iPad DJ’s who are looking for a more professional take on the art.
MixVibes CrossDJ App
A complete DJing tool, CrossDJ is a fully-fledged DJing controller. It features a full 2-channel mixer with 3-band EQs and Kills, preset Loops, 6 Locators, High-precision audio FX with X/Y control pad and much more. In addition, CrossDJ takes advantage of the iPad/iPhone media management paradigm with fluid, rapid and intuitive browsing and loading. You can easily access all iTunes playlists and browse media using a Dynamic Triple Criteria Filter. The audio stream can be split in order to be able to monitor tracks with headphones, which is essential for a professional mix.

» Pro Multitouch Controller
» 2 players with 3-band equalizers, frequency kills, gains, 2 volume faders, a crossfader and 2 pitch sliders with adjustable range (4%, 6%, 8%, 16%, 32%, 100%).
» FX Touch Pad and Vinyl Wheel
» 2 deck views: The vinyl record deck allows precise scratching and the possibility to cue a track as you would with a regular turntable. The FX view features a large X/Y control pad allowing you to explore the full extent and potential of the 13 audio FX.
» FX hold feature allows you to lock down an audio effect on a precise setting point.
» Two Loop Modes
— The first mode is the regular loop mode with 8 different lengths of loops varying from 1/8 beat to 16 beats (4bars).
— The second mode is called “slip” mode. Here, loops are active only when a finger is pressed on the loop. While the loop is active the track keeps playing so that when you release the finger the musical flow is not affected.
» Headphone Monitoring: Split Output

The BPM analysis is performed automatically the first time you load a track. Once analyzed, the mix is visually assisted with a sync meter and high definition waveforms. Thanks to the Beatgrid feature, mixes will be synchronized automatically. Edits to the beat grid are doable on-the-fly and saved to the collection.

CrossDJ offers the possibility to monitor the mix with headphones using multiple routing modes. The split routing allows monitoring, which means you are performing a mix in actual professional conditions. The default setting plays music directly through the master stream.

CrossDJ is stocked with a combination of MixVibes Media Management system and Apple’s intuitive track search paradigm. Media browsing is made through a multi-criteria filter or directly on the full size iPad keyboard. Hence, loading a new track is done in seconds.

CrossDJ is compatible with most popular audio formats including every iTunes compatible format and many more. A pristine sound quality of CrossDJ will be offered through the headphone plug jack and the USB port.

CrossDJ will be available from the Apple App Store on May 7th for a special launch price or €7.99 (ends June 4th – Regular price: €14.99). An iPhone version is slated to launch this Summer.

Another Telugu autobiography

This is the fourth I read recently written by people from farmer families in Krishna -Guntur districts. The first two Bidabratuku (భీద బ్రతుకు) by Yalamanchili Venkatappaiah(1895-1997) written in1987 and nirjana varadhi (నిర్జన వారధి) by Kondapalli Koteswaramma written around the age of 90, describe the social conditions, exposure to inpendece struggle, nationalism, communism from 1930s. Both are short and excellent. Here is an interview with Koteswaramma. The third is the autobiography of Kodali Kamalamma (1916-)(online, made available by her children) written around 2008. She took part in the independence struggle is an atheist who followed Gora. Though the rest of the family seems somewhat traditional, she seemed to continue with her ideas and walked on burning coals at the age of 68 to debunk miracles.
I just browsed through the autobiography of Katragadda Murari (1944-), a film producer from the same area with a similar family background and gives glimpses of the next couple of generations. The family is richer, the older generation supported both independence movement as well as communists and played hosts to several communists were underground in the late forties and early fifties. Murari grew up in joint family and there is much about his problems growing up the scars of which stayed on throughout his life. But it is a long and badly written book; possibly knowing the author's temper, nobody dared to help edit it carefully. Possibly lack of editing kept it very frank. There are tales of corruption in the educational system, powerful relatives helping to change grades or help to pass even in Medical schools. But we do not even get to know except indirectly much about the aspirations, strengths and weaknesses of the author. But the legendary Chakrapani who is not known to suffer fools gladly took him as an assistant without asking and kept him as an assistant until death. Chakrapani must have seen some thing in him, possibly on the basis of an article Murari wrote about parents and children at the age of 17. But we do not get any insights into the personalaties of the many famous people who flit through the book. I read to mainly because I saw few of the people mentioned and know almost all the names mentioned in the book. Except for a bit about Kavuri Ramesh Babu, I am no wiser. But the book is a powerful reminder of the dangers of the joint family system which was common those days. Now all our children are in Melbourne and come to our house almost daily and eat with us half the time. Sometimes, I am tempted to have a joint family set up instead of all us paying so many bills separately. The traumas of Murari will keep me away from taking such steps.
Interviews with Katragadda Murali
In the second part of the interview Murari talks about Bhanumati from 5 minutes  until 12 minutes, and a bit about joint family from 18 minutes.The incident with Athreya from about 18:40 in the first interview.
P.S. Sri Murari clarifies on Facebook that there was some editing
Mine was not a careful review or any such thing. Just a quick reaction to book that I found interesting about social conditions and hoped that more erudite readers would read and comment about it.

Narayanaswamy S. said...

I agree with overall conclusions about the overall nature of the book. However, it appealed to me for a few reasons, nevertheless. I grew up in exactly the same locale, played around the same area, albeit 20 years later. By then, that area had changed a lot. So, it was very fascinating to me to see how my childhood locale was 20 years before me. Second - it was very fascinating to me the interactions and complex equations that governed the joint family. The later half of the book may be appealing to movie historians and trivia enthusiasts - it was not to me.

gaddeswarup said...

Thanks Narayanaswamy Garu. I liked parts of the book but thought that there were repetitions. In parts it is powerful and reminded me a bit of Gopichand's Asamarthuni jeevayatra. I mainly wrote about since I have been away from the locale for a long time and hoped that others would write about it. I am slightly older than Murari's and saw that area around 1954-56. But I grew up in different villages of Guntur district though my father was from Krishna district.

teresa said...

The book made a very interesting read for me since I heard all those names growing up in my maternal gradmom's household in Atkuru, krishna dist. I made my mom read the book also and she fondly remembered those people and times.

బల్లకూర్పు is one word I totally forgot over the years. Thanks to the author, it brought a flood of very pleasant memories of my childhood at my grandparents' house!
yes, the book could've been a little slimmer but I certainly didn't mind it :)

Johnny Baseball: San Diego Padres Select Johnny Manziel In MLB Draft

On a day where Maria Sharapova won the French Open and California Chrome is chasing the Triple Crown, Johnny Manziel has stolen all the headlines. First a photo of him popping bottles on a blowup swan surfaced (leading to some excellent memes), and then the San Diego Padres selected Johnny Baseball in the MLB Draft’s 28th round.

Manziel was a multi-sport star in high school, but played only football while at Texas A&M. The Padres drafted him as a late-round shortstop prospect.

It looks like Johnny Cleveland and the Indians just weren’t meant to be this time around.

EA Sports MMA (also known as EA MMA) is an upcoming video game which will be published by EA Sports and developed by EA Tiburon in 2010. It will be released for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.[3] At the E3 games convention, EA Sports MMA announced that the game would be released on October 19, 2010 in North America and October 22, 2010 everywhere else.

Game details

On June 1, 2009, Electronic Arts announced that an all-new fighting title is in development under the EA Sports brand. EA Sports MMA will be available in 2010 on the Xbox 360 and PS3. Its website did not reveal any facts about the gameplay or its release date, just one link to sign up for the EA Sports newsletter and another that directs people to EA Sports' MMA forum.[4] This game will have many options to create the ultimate MMA experience.

It was announced that the first trailer would be shown on CBS, during Strikeforce: Fedor vs. Rogers on November 7, 2009. The trailer featured Emelianenko and Rogers performing a variety of attacks and defenses against each other. The trailer ended with both of the men about to punch each other in the face. It was announced that EA MMA would feature Strikeforce as its flagship promotion.[5]

An article posted on December 15, mentioned the following details:

  • Deals with other MMA promotions, in addition to the announced Strikeforce deal, are "highly likely, including at least one of the big Japanese groups." FSM says one unannounced top fighter "regularly competes in Sengoku Raiden Championship, aka World Victory Road."
  • Venues include both rings and cages. FSM says EA's on the fence about whether restarts will be included for ring fights. (It "might make for jarring gameplay," the article says.)
  • The game includes Pride-style rules in addition to standard Unified Rules.
  • The game includes the ability to fight southpaw- or orthodox, execute foot stomps and fight on the cage, with deep clinchwork and countering.
  • Mauro Ranallo and Frank Shamrock will be providing commentary.[6]

Randy Couture and Fedor Emelianenko will be on the US cover. Hidehiko Yoshida and Fedor Emelianenko will be on the Japanese cover.[8]

The game will also feature 'Live Broadcasts' that can be viewed from PC or consoles. The player will be able to upload hype videos, which will help to increase popularity. Real life prizes will be given out to a certain level.[9]

UFC controversy

UFC president Dana White has declared himself "at war" with EA over the development of the EA Sports MMA video game. White assumed that he initially wanted EA to develop UFC 2009 Undisputed and remarks "EA Sports told us, 'You're not a real sport. We wouldn't touch this thing. We want nothing to do with this.'" "We put our asses on the line, THQ and the UFC, to make a video-game deal in the worst economy in the world," White told reporters recently. "We go out there and do this thing, and it's successful, and now [expletive] EA Sports wants to do a video game.[12]

In response to these allegations, EA Sports have since claimed that Dana White held a meeting with EA in Los Angeles, who are responsible for such games as The Sims; a separate entity from their EA Sports brand.

White warned the fighters who intend to be included in the upcoming EA Sports MMA game release, claiming that "If you do business with EA, you won't be in the UFC". Former UFC heavyweight champions Tim Sylvia[13] and Andrei Arlovski, as well as still under contract Frank Trigg (who has now been released from his UFC Contract following his loss to Matt Serra [14]) and Vladimir Matyushenko[15] confirmed their presence in the EA Sports MMA video game. Fan favorite Randy Couture was under contract with UFC before agreeing to be a part of EA Sports MMA, but is able to take part in the game due to never signing over his likeness to the UFC for use in video games. White has since changed his standpoint on this subject.[16]

EA Sports confirmed that the demo will be released on September 28, 2010 and will feature 4 fighters Alistair Overeem, Bobby Lashley, Jason "Mayhem" Miller and Jake Shields.

GameZone's Dakota Grabowski was able to find out more on EA Sports MMA, saying "What the team was able to confirm was that refs will never disappear from the match, ring girls will be present, authentic entrances will be put into action, and corner men will show up during rounds; although no official corner men will be provided. Lastly, they were able confirm that both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions will be exactly the same and no planned DLC will be exclusive to either platform."[17]

iPhone Version

It was announced on the 9th September via several media outlets and EA Sports official pages that the game would also have an iPhone release[18]. Only limited details are known of the game to date including that it will feature Couture and Emelianenko[19] along with having a create-a-fighter mode[20].

Victor Kislyi says they have “freaking financial proof”.

Posted By | On 09th, Aug. 2013 Under News

Speaking to OXM, Wargaming.net head Victor Kislyi recently stated that his game, World of Tanks, is proof that free to play games on the Xbox consoles are “the future”.

“Microsoft is a huge company, with lots of partners – publishers and developers. So yes, it does take some extra effort and political persistence to help them to realise how important it is for Microsoft and the Xbox platform to embrace free-to-play, digital, online elements.

“Because that’s the future and we have the freaking financial proof. That’s how it works, and not only us, there are a couple of other big companies that are killing it with free-to-play online.”

Of course, free to play can’t just benefit from selling tons of copies on launch day and then disappearing. These kinds of games need months and even years to become profitable.

“We can’t do everything right now, and that’s why we have to explain why we do what we do. This is our fate now, because these kinds of games aren’t your typical Christmas retail bonanza, gone off the shelf after a couple of months, and you’re working on another game. When you launch the game, that’s when the work starts – this was true of the PC game, and it’s true of the Xbox 360 game.”

Regional Gardening Reports :: National Gardening Association

Regional Report

Plant a Salad Garden

Forget iceberg lettuce and plant a garden of spring greens for a change of pace and a salad that has real flavor. Look for an assortment of frilly, curly, lobed, and serrated plants in an array of colors -- from chartreuse to burgundy. Try amaranth, which tastes like a spicy spinach; arugula, with a nutty mustard flavor; cress, with a peppery taste; and mache, which tickles the tongue with its mild sweetness.

Pick the Right Evergreen for Hedging

Everyone in my neck of the woods seems to think Leyland cypress is the perfect evergreeen for a hedge, but this fast-growing tree can grow 60 feet tall and shade out a backyard in less than 10 years. For a single species hedge that will give you year-round privacy without encroaching power lines, consider Cleyera japonica, dwarf Burford holly, Ligustrum japonicum, or Osmanthus fragrans.

Plant Camellias, Azaleas, and Rhododendrons

Although its best to plant trees and shrubs in fall, most gardeners will prefer to purchase ornamentals such as camellias, azaleas, and rhododendrons when they can see the color, size, and form of the flowers. That's okay, too. Dig a planting hole that is slightly more shallow but three times as wide as the root ball, so that the base of the trunk remains higher than the natural soil level. Don't fertilize, as this will stress the plant before it has time to establish a roots, but do mulch well and irrigate when summer rainfall is sparse.

Prune Forsythia After Bloom

Now that the earliest days of spring are past and forsythia has shed its golden bells, it's time to prune these robust shrubs. Avoid shearing them into cramped little balls. Instead, preserve their fountain shape by getting down on hands and knees and removing the oldest one-third of their branches, using sharp loppers to cut them as close to the ground as possible. When pruning is complete, mulch around the plant to help suppress weeds and retain moisture.

Groom the Herb Garden

Rosemary, lavender, sage, and other hardy herbs growing in beds should be pruned by cutting the plants back by half, or more, and taking care to remove all branches killed by winter cold. Wait a couple of weeks after the last frost to put out tender herbs, such as basil, as they prefer temperatures above 45 degrees. Be especially careful when adding mint to the garden. It can prove invasive. Instead of growing it with the other herbs, consider planting it in a terra cotta container that is partially buried. Keep an eye out, however, for stems that reach for the ground.

Last night we mentioned a creepy auction of the Plato's Retreat-era marble fixtures that adorned Penthouse publisher Bob Guccione's notorious apartment. Here, from the auction house's web site, is a visual taste of how the Gooch lived in his heyday.

Auctioneers hoped these marble toilets would go for up to $5,000 apiece; they sold for $200. If you bought these, please use a lot of bleach before you install them.

Now this is the kind of "art" you'd expect to see in the Gooch's pad. The auction house's web site describes them as "molded plastic with high releif [sic] neoclassical female busts with sun ray crowns." Yes, those are a lot of female busts.

International Education Week Begins Monday

Posted: November 12, 2004 at 1:00 am, Last Updated: November 30, -0001 at 12:00 am

By Megan McDonnell

If you want to learn more about international cultures, next week is for you. International Education Week, Nov. 15-22, features a variety of lectures and programs to experience different cultures.

Highlighting the week is Claudia Ford, who will be speaking on “Issues of Consequence: The Context of Violence Against Children in South Africa.” Ford is an African American international development specialist, children’s rights activist, and author with a 25-year career in international development in most of the countries of Latin America, the Caribbean, the Middle East, South Asia, Southeast Asia, and East and Southern Africa. There will also be a Reflections art exhibit in the Johnson Center Gallery all week.

Poetry takes the stage on Wednesday and Thursday with readings on both days. Students from around the world will present poetry in their native language with translation to follow. Some featured languages will be Erdu, French, Korean, German, Spanish, Italian, and Icelandic. On Thursday, Alastair Reid, poet and translator from the New Yorker, will speak about Pablo Neruda’s life. Neruda was the winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1971, among hundreds of other prizes worldwide.

Two dance exhibitions will also be held: the Indian dance exhibition will begin at noon on Monday in the Johnson Center Atrium, and a salsa dance exhibition starts at noon on Tuesday.

Theo Moore Questions... Morphology? Longevity? Incept dates?
Well, I am still working on the issue with the repaint event on the main form causing a second repaint on the grid. I tried moving the logic code for the interface to the KeyUp event, rather than the KeyDown. This seems to allow only one repaint of the form. I am double-buffering and I see the results of it. However, the emulator performs so poorly (speed-wise) that the screen still appears to flicker. However, it looks much better than it did for sure. I can know move more on to the actual game engine.....that should be fun. :-) Posted on Monday, June 6, 2005 7:50 AM | Back to top

Happy Madison to Bring Patrick Jean's PIXELS short to the Big Screen

Remember that awesome short film called PIXELS we showed you not too long ago? The film was created by Patrick Jean, and it shows New York City being attacked by an epic army of early arcade game characters, including Pac-Man and Space Invaders who drop there little bombs down on the city destroying everything in a glory of Pixels.

The short film apparently was so awesome that Columbia Pictures and Adam Sandler's Happy Madison Productions are in early talks about developing the short into a full-length 3D feature film of greatness. Happy Madison has already bought the rights to the short film. They are based on the Columbia Pictures studio lot so they get first dibs. There is no done deal yet, but I'm sure something will happen. I loved the short film, and I think a feature length movie would be fun to see brought to life.

If you haven't seen Pixels yet check out the video below and let us know what ya think! Will it make for a fun movie?

Well Said Tom, Here's My Response

Tom MacEntee summed up last weekend's commentary in a thoughtful and even touching way. See Open Thread Thursday: Do We Eat Our Own In The Genealogy Industry?
Reading his blog, you can see why he is so well liked and well known. But more than that he expresses the feeling of community that exists among the genealogy bloggers. Quoting from his blog post, I would like to comment on the following:
Or is it more a case of “we know we can do and be better than this” and we’re seeking to ensure a vibrant community filled with resources covering every aspect of genealogy?  Are we willing to risk the loss of an event or a resource in lieu of something better? Do we properly channel our energies and opinions? Should vendors and others be wary of working with genealogists who blog, use social media, etc. because we are opinionated and sometimes critical?
I don't think that historically there has been a "genealogical community." I believe that the bloggers are in the process of creating such a community. Before there was the "professional, journal writing" genealogical group but I don't think you could view them as a "community." Now, I view myself as a member of a global genealogical community where we care about each other and what we do is genealogy in a more expansive sense than was ever previously possible. This is surprising because I personally don't even fit the demographics of my own blog.

I have been on Facebook for a long time but I don't believe I have ever made a "Facebook" friend in all that time. To the contrary, I count many of the bloggers as friends, even those who have yet to meet personally. We turn out to have a lot in common and we react to injustice and unfairness in about the same way.

There is always a risk in any endeavor. I wasn't sure what kind of reaction I would receive from my initial post of the RootsTech issue, but having been a trial attorney for more years than I care to think about, I really decided that I was going to express my opinion despite the risk (or maybe because of it).

Are our energies and opinions properly channeled? I can say that my own style and content has evolved dramatically over the past years of blogging. Have I reached a proper channel? Who knows? If you like my blog posts, maybe you think yes, if not, you probably aren't reading this anyway. This points out a fundamental principle, a blogger will only keep blogging if he or she is committed, passionate and has content worth reading. Without passion, there is no community.

Should the vendors beware? No, I think they need to grow up. I think they need to realize as Bob Dylan said,
Come gather ’round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You’ll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you is worth savin’
Then you better start swimmin’ or you’ll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin’
Come writers and critics
Who prophesize with your pen
And keep your eyes wide
The chance won’t come again
And don’t speak too soon
For the wheel’s still in spin
And there’s no tellin’ who that it’s namin’
For the loser now will be later to win
For the times they are a-changin’
For genealogy, the times they are a-changin' and the vendors, whether they be profit or non-profit, need to know that if your time to you is worth savin', then you better start swimmin' or you'll sink like a stone.

  1. Well stated, all around, Jame. Thanks for this blog post. I read it! ;-)

  2. I like your take on this James, but if you are talking about change .... you seem to short change Facebook. Don't!

    I have some who follow my blog. I have some who follow me on Facebook. Some do both.

    They are equally important. Bloggers do NOT have a corner on importance in genealogy.

    Bobby Zimmerman was right!

  3. [Originally posted at ]

    I've read your recent posts with great interest and concerns. You are raising some good issues and I'm trying to figure where this is all going. I'll take it a chunk at a time.

    You challenge James Tanner's assertion that historically there hasn't been a 'genealogy community' [see and . You counter him with a listing of seven well known genealogy societies; the earliest founded in 1845 and the most recent in 1979. Communities may be thought of as different from societies, but are they?

    One society, from your list, that stood out for me was the 'The Afro-American Historical and Genealogical Society (est. 1977)'. Was this a society addressing the needs of a 'community' that was denied access to those listed 'societies' for over 132 years?

    My concerns also extend to the 'hundreds of local, county, state, or regional historical and genealogical societies throughout the world' that you mention. Are they all welcoming the burgeoning genealogy community with its persons of color, new immigrants, gays, lesbians, trans-gendered, alternative life-styled, and blended families? Are their doors opened to these relatively new communities? For the record, since 1977, I have personally been welcomed and rebuffed by many a genealogy society. For the record, if my people were welcomed into the societies there wouldn't necessarily be a need for the creation of any of the many ethnic-specific genealogy societies, forums, exhibitions, and organizations. If those early societies all were open to everyone, can you imagine how awesome the genealogy community would be? And that's the offline or real world.

    Now, to the online genealogy community. Thanks to the internet, the genealogy communities are, as you suggest, much larger in terms of participants. Perhaps a little more democratic and open, but early on it was still necessary for the creation of a and other ethnic-specific genealogy societies, forums, exhibitions, and organizations. How different are the the online genealogy societies and communities from the offline ones? Are all communities being acknowledged?

    Michael, you say "Without the genealogy community of the past, we would not have the online genealogy community." My concern is that the gatekeepers of the genealogy community of the past are the gatekeepers of the online genealogy community today. Meet the new boss - same as the old boss type jam.

    I don't know if James Tanner was trying to call out the gatekeepers, or if he was even thinking that deeply about it. We can thank RootsTech for getting us rapping though. Mr. MacEntee, who got the party started [see , ain't no gatekeeper, but he is a keen observer of the human (genealogy) condition and got Rootstech to listen to reason. We have to thank Thomas for getting us rappin'.

    Michael, thank you for pushing the conversation to another level. We need to go there. On your blog, at , you have a post titled "The Genealogy Paradigm Shift: Are bloggers the new “experts". This begs the question; are bloggers the new gatekeepers? As an African ancestored genealogist, I'm going going to watch this conversation closely. There are considerably talented ethnic-specific genealogists and historians that need to be included in this elite group. As new folks get bitten by the genealogy and family history bug, they need to be, at the minimum, informed that there are experts from their culture that they can connect with and are part of the genealogy consortium.

    So, it is vitally important to know who the gatekeepers are. Rootstech, for one, cannot be a gatekeeper. They don't have folks' interest at heart. They showed their hand.

Sway In The Morning Lyrics

[Verse 1:]

Tell 'em, ok
Tell 'em I got plenty hustle to sell 'em
Heat by the fleet, displaying it very seldom
Lead how right to light ignite my cerebellum
Close to the pen like I had three felons
Come from a city where niggas show no remorse
And the corpse is just another homie taking this course
Of course my dream was to play in the final four
Til the twelve grade came and I was only five four

So Now I’m a graduate, looking to get higher
My pops knew a security job, he inquired
But ignorance is bliss, that's what I was told
I stop, drop the role when somebody else fired
Now there goes another black boy unemployed with a lot of free time
Which means he’s hungry or just a lot of free crime

I lived it in my rhymes, and when I hit the porch, this is what I realize

We’ve also got a special limited time character coming in early April so mark your calendars and keep your eyes peeled!

That’s all for now, until next time: keep running!

Lamborghini Teams Up With Monster Audio For Veneno Roadster

    Comments: 0  | Leave A Comment

    monster Veneno Roadster

    The tech bug has a finally hit the auto industry and many automakers are looking to create their own niche with their rides. Car companies like Audi have debuted some new elements to their cars during 2014 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. I didn’t think their would  be anything that would top Audi’s Laser Lights, until I came across the  Monster Audio equipped Lamborghini Veneno Roadster.

    Audio company Monster have collaborated with Lamborghini to bring booming sound to the already pricy Veneno. Fitting the car with Monster’s  “Pure Monster Sound” audio system.  The audio system was the brainchild of Noel Lee, the man behind the Beats by Dre line of headphones and speakers line.

    The Veneno’s audio system will use Monster’s new technology and sonic innovations to give drivers and passenger the ultimate  car and audio experience .

There has been an explosion at one of the factories of Pegatron Corp, one of Apple's part suppliers. The explosion has injured 57 workers. 23 have been hospitalized with burns.

The explosion, which happened at their factory in Shanghai's Songjiang industrial park around 3:40pm local time, could also affect Apple's iPad 2 production next quarter. According to China's Yi Cai Daily, the plant was going to make back panels for the iPad 2.

However, Pegatron's Chief Financial Officer Charles Lin told Reuters that "the factory has not started operations yet. Part of the facility is still under pre-operation inspection and part is running trial production." [Reuters]

elements of style v.12!

I personally have three simple elements (or tricks!) to a simple but beautiful outfit. I call them them my 'elements of style'. They are something casual, something neutral and something dressy. These three elements combined are my fail-safe for outfits that are easy to put together and that look and feel feminine and relaxed.

Once spring rolls around (if it ever does) my white jeans go into heavy rotation until fall.  This simple combination of white jeans, a graphic tee and a denim jacket are going to be a no-fail outfit combo that I am likely to turn to again and again this spring.  The looks is casual and comfortable (not to mention super easy to pull together) and is easily dressed up with a classy pair of shoes, a clutch and some gorgeous earrings.  Done and done.

Your go-to spring look is officially here.

Have a great weekend! It's supposed to be 50 degrees and sunny here this weekend… it's going to be amazing!

If you like this style of post… you can find more here!

see you around...

Soviet Tank Graveyard

Tuesday, 7th March 2006 by

To the North of Afghanistan’s capital Kabul is the “Tank Graveyard“. Here there are hundreds of Soviet tanks, left there since the end of the Soviet war in 1989, slowly rusting away.

Apparently the Taliban used this field for collecting spare tank parts to service the active tanks in the military base just to the East. You can see that the U.S. bombers have destroyed most of the buildings in this base and there are large craters in the surrounding grounds.

Good ground level pics of the graveyard on this Russian page (warning: site features some NSFW advertising).

Cuccio Naturalé NEW Manicure & Pedicure Collection - Luxurious Spa Treatments in the Comfort of Home

6:34 am

As money tightens, little splurges like going out to dinner twice a week and getting your nails done, go out the window.

But all hope is not lost, thanks to Cuccio Naturalé NEW Manicure & Pedicure Collection. These professional products allow you to achieve the same salon results without living the comfort of home. And without doling out the big bucks. So it's win-win.

If your cuticles take a beating like mine (between the cooking, cleaning and constant washing, they are completely ravaged), you'll be thrilled to learn that you don't have to live like that anymore. Cuccio Naturalé Manicure Cuticle Conditioning Oil works in a flash on those tough bits that nag and gnaw at you and get caught on everything, including your clothes (there goes another pair of nylons ruined...).

Using only natural ingredients to soften and treat your cuticles (sunflower seed, wheat germ, sweet almond, olive, tea tree, vegetable & apricot kernel oils, along with kelp extract, shea butter and vitamin E), your nails feel quench and nourished. And the fragrance is delightful - fresh-sweetgrass-after-the-rain kinda clean. And what's most impressive is that it not only works quickly, but the conditioning lasts long after application.

I use Manicure Cuticle Softener just before applying nail lacquer and am always gobsmacked by how effective and instantaneous it is - it gives you clean lines to work within, so you always get a professional finish. This is by far one of the best I've ever used. And it comes in a large bottle, so it will last you for what feels like forever (it will definitely get you all the way through every season of Damages. And then some).

Pedicures are always a little tricky for me because I have such tough feet and wonky toes, so I tend to shy away from them. But Cuccio Naturalé Professional Pedicure Starter Kit (pictured above) swept me off my feet with its intensely comprehensive components:

- Ooh, the fresh, light frangrance and immediate hydration of Extended Massage Lotion with Shea Butter & Tuscan Grapeseed is beyond. You might never leave the house again.

- You should see the colour of the water after you add the Detoxifying Salt Soak with Sea Kelp & Tea Tree - its like the Cayman Islands! And the scent is take-you-away refreshing! But of course what it is meant to do, it does - vacuuming away all of your stress and toxins - all the while with verve and ador. Ahhh.

- Sloughing away all of that dry, dead skin isn't hard work like you're used it. The sugarcane and bamboo in the Micro Exfoliation Scrub do all the heavy lifting while you get to sit back, relax and enjoy smooth feet like you've never experienced before.

- There's no heel too hard for the Hydrating Heel Treatment with Argan Oil & Ure to cure. My apparent fortress of heel was penetrated and all that was left behind was smooth, supple, baby-soft skin. I think there's going to be some playing of footsies tonight...

- And just to make polishing your toes that much easier and like a pro in a salon would do them, you also get one pair of toe separators and a pair of pedicure slippers. You're going to be searching for the barest sandals you've got now.

And just to make sure that you're really getting the full spa effect, sink into a Detox Soak. This is how the pros do it in salons and now you can bring home that luxury.

You simply fill a bucket with warm water, add the magnesium sulfate crystals the bath and then add the large tablet. Slip your feet into the water and feel the purification begin. The toxins your body has been holding onto will just glide out of you!
Finish with the Somatology Massage Serum, a rich blend of vitamins C&E and pomegranate seed and argan oils, and watch a whole new you unfold!

Suddenly the salon isn't such a necessity anymore.

Weight-related problems including obesity, poor eating behaviors, and inadequate physical activity are prevalent among emerging adults and have adverse physical and psychosocial consequences. Obesity is one of the most significant public health problems facing young people today. Emerging adulthood is one of the most rapid periods of growth and development as young people undergo identity formation and changes in interpersonal influences (becoming more independent from parents and more aligned with friends). College freshmen are at particular risk as they generally have very poor diets and low levels of physical activity, which have been associated with increased risk of overweight/obesity into adulthood. Recently NIH has called for the development of multi-level studies to better understand and address obesity and other weight-related problems, and there is a lack of research focusing on the role of friends in population-based samples of college students. It is crucial to identify longitudinal mechanistic and contextual factors among friendship networks of young people at greatest risk for obesity and weight-related problems. The identification of multi-level predictors of key weight-related behaviors and outcomes among friendship networks will guide the development of more comprehensive and effective interventions to promote healthy eating, physical activity and weight status in emerging adults. Thus, the primary aim of this study is to assess the role in which friendship networks are involved in nutrition and physical activity behaviors and risk for excess weight gain among college freshmen. To accomplish this aim, we will use a mixed-methods approach, capitalizing on the unique opportunities at Arizona State University which includes high percentages of students from ethnic/racial minority (40%) and low-income (40% are Pell Grant recipients) backgrounds who are at greatest risk for obesity. We will collect qualitative and multiple sources of quantitate data, each complementing the other, to longitudinally track how friendships are created, and better describe the mechanisms by which friends are prospectively associated with weight-related behaviors and outcomes. We will also collect data on contextual aspects of the students'networks (e.g., type of friendship, race/ethnicity) to capture information that can be used to create targeted interventions. Innovative research methodologies (i.e., ecological momentary assessments and university databases) will be utilized to survey friends of participating students across an academic year to explore friends'potential impact on freshmen's weight-related outcomes. The proposed study builds upon our research team's experience, and expands to address new areas that are emerging as important in addressing obesity and related problems in young people, creating an ideal environment for a young investigator to become an independent researcher. Findings from this innovative, comprehensive study on the role of friends and social networks will guide the development of more effective interventions to prevent and treat weight-related behaviors and outcomes among college students.

Public Health Relevance

The majority of college freshmen in the United States have one or more of the following weight-related problems: obesity, poor eating behaviors, inadequate physical activity, and high levels of sedentary behaviors;few studies have addressed these issues with this population. The aim of this longitudinal study is to prospectively identify mechanisms and contextual factors in which friendship networks predict of these weight-related problems in diverse emerging adults. Findings will inform the development of interventions to improve the health of young people at greatest risk for weight-related problems.

The candidate is a neonatologist with strong training in epidemiology and a proven commitment to the study of patient-oriented research, with a desire to develop clinical pharmacology skills. The candidate's long-term career goal is to advance public health by improving drug safety and dosing in infants. The candidate's short- term career goals for the K23 program are to: 1) acquire knowledge and skills in clinical pharmacology;2) develop the professional skills to successfully lead a PK/PD clinical trial research team;and 3) produce a critical mass of preliminary data and publications to support an R01 grant application and establish a program of independent research in clinical pharmacology. The proposed research plan, career development activities, mentorship team, and institutional environment are all uniquely suited to assist the applicant in achieving these goals. Although antibiotics are the most commonly used medications in hospitalized infants, dosing for infants is often extrapolated from data obtained in older children and adults. Fluconazole and rifampin are two antimicrobials commonly used in the nursery for which pharmacokinetic data can be improved. Dr. Laughon will use an integrative approach to investigate the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of these two agents in premature infants. This approach will include: application of sparse sampling methodologies;population PK/PD modeling;development of dried blood spot technology;a dual center PK trial;and a multi- site PK trial. This proposal will capitalize on unique opportunities provided by the Fluconazole Prophylaxis trial (PI: Benjamin, mentor), the NICHD PPRU open label fluconazole trial, and the Duke fluconazole trial. Dr. Laughon will also have access to the resources of the Duke Clinical Research Institute (Benjamin) and the Eshelman School of Pharmacy at UNC (Brouwer, co-mentor). To support the candidate's career development, he will participate in the UNC/Duke clinical pharmacology fellowship and become board certified in clinical pharmacology. The mentorship team assembled is uniquely qualified, and strengths include extensive clinical research experience;internationally recognized thought leadership in trial design, research methods, pharmacology, and PK/PD modeling;and a successful history of mentorship of junior faculty. Dr. Laughon's K23 proposal will provide him with the opportunity to learn PK/PD modeling and simulation techniques and to develop a dried blood spot assay in addition to refining clinical trial methodologies to maximize information gained from the limited samples available in this vulnerable population. The research environment including the Translational and Clinical Sciences Institute at UNC and the DCRI at Duke provide a productive, collegial, and collaborative atmosphere in which to pursue the above research and training goals. At the conclusion of this program, Dr. Laughon will be positioned to be an independent physician-scientist leading a research team.

Public Health Relevance

Invasive infections in premature infants are common and often fatal. Therefore, physicians commonly prescribe antimicrobial agents to treat suspected or confirmed infections in this population. Appropriate dosing of most antimicrobial agents in infants is unknown and information obtained from older patients has failed to accurately predict newborn drug disposition. This proposal will use a novel approach to investigate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of antimicrobial agents commonly used in infants, using scavenge sampling methodologies, advanced PK-PD modeling, and dried blood spot technology.

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is the newest member of a small family of gaseous, biological signaling molecules, termed gasotransmitters. H2S is the only gasotransmitter that is enzymatically metabolized. H2S signaling is involved in numerous cellular processes and plays an especially important role in the cardiovascular system. Despite its multiple life-supporting properties, H2S is a Janus-faced molecule that can exhibit toxic effects at higher concentrations. For example, a genetic defect in the mitochondrial metabolism of H2S is the cause of ethylmalonic encephalopathy (EE), a devastating, invariably fatal disorder of infancy that is characterized by extremely high (toxic) levels of the gasotransmitter and impaired metabolism of short-chain fatty acids. On the other hand, clinical data and animal model studies provide compelling evidence for a functional association between abnormally low levels of H2S and cardiovascular disease. The long-term goals of this project are to elucidate the pathways for and the possible regulation of the mitochondrial metabolism of H2S, to apply this knowledge to treat EE and other defects in H2S metabolism. Sulfide:quinone oxidoreductase (SQOR) is an integral membrane protein that catalyzes the first irreversible step in H2S metabolism and, as such, sits at a key potential regulatory point. We will elucidate the catalytic mechanism of this important enzyme and investigate its possible regulation by posttranslational modification. Our recent identification of the physiological acceptor of the sulfane sulfur (S0) produced in the SQOR reaction has necessitated a major revision of previously proposed pathways for H2S metabolism. To address important gaps in the current knowledge, we will characterize two postulated enzymes in the new model for H2S metabolism and evaluate the biological function of each enzyme in cells. Our discoveries in H2S metabolism allow us to design novel therapeutic strategies to treat EE and also suggest how a defect in H2S metabolism can interfere with fatty acid metabolism. This work will be conducted in close collaboration with basic and clinical scientists with expertise in mitochondrial disease, medicinal chemistry, drug discovery, cell biology, and structural biology.

Public Health Relevance

Hydrogen sulfide, the newest member of a small family of gaseous, biological signaling molecules, plays a vital role in numerous physiological processes and is especially important in the cardiovascular system. This project will evaluate a novel therapy for the treatment of ethylmalonic encephalopathy, an invariably fatal disorder of hydrogen sulfide metabolism, and will seek to discover the functional link between aberrant hydrogen sulfide metabolism and deficits in fatty acid metabolism observed in ethylmalonic encephalopathy and ulcerative colitis patients.

Annually, over 300,000 US patients survive an acute critical illness but fail to recover sufficiently to permit ventilator liberation, a syndrome knownas prolonged mechanical ventilation (PMV). PMV is associated with high mortality, prolonged disability, and extraordinary resource utilization. Because these patients are incapacitated due to illness, their surrogates must make life support decisions on their behalf. However, the quality of the decision making process is seriously deficient and may lead to decisions that are inconsistent with a patient's preferences, prolonged life support that is extraordinarily costly an ineffective, and psychological distress among patients'surrogate decision makers. To address these problems, we developed a decision aid for PMV surrogate decision makers that promotes shared decision making between surrogate decision makers and clinicians. In a recent pilot study, we found that compared to usual care control, the decision aid improved surrogate-clinician concordance for prognosis, the quality of communication, and the likelihood that clinicians and surrogates engaged in life support discussions. It also improved surrogates'decisional conflict and trust in clinicians. To confirm and extend our promising results, we now propose a multicenter randomized controlled trial (RCT) to test the efficacy of the PMV decision aid vs. usual care control in improving: (1) decision making quality, defined as clinician-surrogate concordance for prognosis, quality of communication, and medical comprehension;(2) surrogates'psychological distress;and (3) patients'health care utilization.
We aim to enroll 600 surrogate decision makers for PMV patients, as well as patients'ICU physicians and nurses, from five diverse centers that make up an existing PMV research network. We will use generalized linear models to test for differences in outcomes between decision aid and usual care control groups over a 6-month follow up period. The proposed study addresses key research needs in decision making highlighted by the NIH and the Institute of Medicine, and also meets a call for innovation in decision aids specified by the 2010 Affordable Care Act. Innovative aspects of this pragmatic intervention include: (a) its use of web-based tablet computer technology to address surrogates'informational needs;(b) its function as a family meeting adjunct to promote individualized shared decision making, (c) the targeting of communication-associated risk factors for psychological distress, (d) its potential for inexpensive dissemination and adaptation to broader populations, (f) its ability to accommodate updates in component clinical risk estimates, and (g) the inclusion of an economic evaluation of effect. Overall, this research could have a significant, sustained impact on critical care's future clinica and research approach.

Public Health Relevance

The process of making a decision about whether or not to provide prolonged life support is seriously deficient among clinicians and the surrogate decision makers for critically ill patients. To address this problem, we propose a randomized, controlled trial to determine if an innovative web-based decision aid compared to usual care control can improve the quality of decision making, reduce surrogates'psychological distress, and reduce patients'health care costs. This study-based on strong preliminary work-has the potential both to improve how clinicians and surrogates interact in intensive care units and to increase the likelihood that life support decisions are aligned with patients'values.

Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) refers to daily or intermittent oral administration of antiretroviral drugs designed to protect high-risk HIV-negative individuals from infection. As PrEP is, at present, the most promising biomedical prevention tool, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is currently reviewing PrEP data and developing detailed public health guidelines for its safe and effective use. Any roll-out of PrEP to MSM in the U.S. will require the development of messages that facilitate understanding of partial efficacy, proper administration, and sustained risk reduction practice. Although the swift development of PrEP-specific interventions is critical, we currently lack basic knowledge about unique cognitive, affective, and behavioral dynamics that may make a significant difference in both efficacy and effectiveness of PrEP as a biomedical prevention strategy. This project applies empirical findings and theoretical models from behavioral economics, social psychology, decision-sciences, health communication, and neuroeconomics to the development of PrEP messaging and communication strategies, in order to: (1) Examine the independent and cumulative impact of four elements of PrEP messaging - modality, frame, specificity, and messenger - on comprehension and acceptability of PrEP as a biomedical prevention strategy;(2) Estimate the impact of each of these factors on individual risk-perception and predicted sexual behavior in the context of PrEP use;(3) Identify individual-level factors, (i.e. demographics, risk tolerance, health numeracy), that might moderate the impact of message factors on comprehension, acceptability, risk perception, or risk compensation;and (4) Provide specific recommendations regarding the optimal message elements and communication strategies for PrEP in order to maximize comprehension and acceptability, while positively impacting risk perception and reducing the likelihood of risk compensation. To accomplish these aims, we will enroll 800 MSM living in the New York City area and randomly assign them to experimental conditions in a 2x2x2x2 factorial design. Data collection will include ACASI measures of outcomes (comprehension, acceptability, risk perception, and risk compensation) as well as potential moderators in four areas: (a) dispositional;(b) cognitive;(c) affective/motivational;and (d) behavioral (sexual risk and substance use). In addition, we will conduct 2 focus groups with each of 5 "special interest groups" (e.g. transgender women, serodiscordant couples) in order to gather detailed data regarding the specific needs, concerns, and issues among populations most likely to be offered PrEP. The proposed project has the potential to exert a sustained and powerful influence not only on the development of PrEP-specific messaging, but also on our understanding of the cognitive and affective processes underlying comprehension of risk-reduction messages, risk perception, and risk compensation.

Public Health Relevance

Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is a new biomedical approach to HIV prevention with the potential to become a powerful tool. This study examines specific elements of PrEP messaging and communication hypothesized to have a significant impact on comprehension, acceptability, risk perception, and risk compensation. Study findings have the potential to move the field toward a more interdisciplinary approach to understanding the behavioral mechanisms that underlie acceptability and adherence to biomedical prevention strategies.
