bring it to you. Made by students, for students."
A student channel that is aimed to and made by students for students, what could be a better way to reach out to the age group, 14/16 - 25 years old, when we ourselves know what it is that we find interesting. As well as it is easier to think of content that suits our targeted age group when we are in that age group together with our audience.
The thought behind "the Internet" was to be able to send files or messages, no matter if atom bombs were hitting a country / aka if there was an ongoing war or not. Basically, the internet was in the very beginning created for military use only.
Ted Nelson and Douglas Engelbart invented the "hypertext" which made it possible for everyone from the general public to use the internet. And that was the first step towards the internet we know as of today.
Tim Berners-Lee is however known to be the father/creator of the World Wide Web - hence www. / internet - in 1989 - Where he made the first successful connection between a hypertext transfer Protocol (HTTP)-client and server via the internet.
In context to the history of the internet and its origin, it is in the modern world - 2016 today, possible to do a lot on the internet. It has developed massively since the first messages and internet signals back in 1989. It has for example come as far as to making it possible for anyone to make their own web pages. This is how we have set up our very own web page with custom content and designs.
Since we first got handed out the handbook for this unit, our group had already decided that we wanted to create something aimed at students. We also wanted to make something that would be fun, humorous and engaging. Josh brought up an idea he had used in one of his personal youtube video's over summer where he had named the video "Student Yak" - We decided that this was a name that was catchy and had a good tone to it.
Yak is a different word for talk, and it can also mean a long haired bovid - hence what we decided to base our logo on. When it comes to the colour scheme we wanted to use colours that were bright and engaging and at the same time would give the audience something.
We decided to go with these colours due to the fact that they are complimentary, and give a rather nice and engaging contrast. Triggering and at the same time creatively stimulating the audience.
- represents creativity, stimulation, attraction, happiness and enthusiasm to mention some. It is a colour that both combine the energy of red and the happiness of yellow.
- The colour increases oxygen supply to the brain, has the effect of producing energy and stimulates mental activity.
- It is a colour highly accepted amongst young people - which is important considering our aim.
- The colour is associated with wisdom, dignity, independence, creativity, mystery and magic.
- It can when in a dark shade evoke and cause frustration, which is something combined with the other colour is a good thing as we want the young audience to engage in the cases and themes brought up on the channel.
Since Josh is the editor for this production it came very naturally that he also put together the design and web page. However, we have all contributed to towards our results and decided on colours, items categories etc. Josh as done a great job putting what we all imagined together to the whole design.
When it came to the logo we decided to play on the other meaning of the word "yak" - a long haired bovid - and have this as/in our logo. We brainstormed and drew some sketches of yaks with graduation hats on the head and or horns, to have a red thread throughout and show that it had something to with students.
We searched the web and looked at images of yaks, and after deliberating our ideas, Josh quickly put together a sketch from photoshop stock photo. It resulted in a logo we were quite happy with for the meantime. - I told my group about my friend Liselotte who is a graphic designer and suggested I could have her make us a sketch/idea for a logo. And that I would get this done by the next meeting.
In association with the internet, we have something called meta element.
The meta element provides information about the web page and can be used by search engines to help categorise the page correctly. They are tags that are used in HTML as well as XHTML documents to provide structured metadata. How the metadata is set up has an effect to how the rules on search engines read them and rank the different websites.
I will not go into further detail, as it is a bit tricky to completely understand and grasp the full meaning of this phenomena. However, it makes a good point as to how this also works in film/tv.
Means that the characters step out of the action and addresses the audience directly.
Just like the internet uses metadata to step out and detect using the tags to see what is most popular amongst websites, as well as to rank them.
The reason I am mentioning this is because without even thinking about it, we are effectively using this method in our production.
One of the important things is also that the presenter is stepping out of the action and directly as well as actively addressing the audience. Additionally, as a brand, we will use our web page to collect important information from the audience. In the form that they will give us feedback and we will be in direct contact with them collect "metadata" on what it is that they care about and want to see the content of.
When it comes to the content of the channel we want it to be up to date, youthful, catchy and fun. We also want it to be relatable and micro-focused on the cases we find to be interesting to and for students. Due to the fact that our channel has the possibility to be quite broad, and basically bring up anything that can be associated with students we have decided to divide them into different categories.
Focuses on the latest celebrity gossip, feuds, drama and twitter beef.
Focuses on the latest Films and TV shows, like new Netflix series or short film reviews of a new movie.
Focuses on stories about social media, like twitter reactions to certain events, social media trends etc.
Focuses on the serious stories important for students to get hold of, for example, the importance of getting the Meningitis jab taken.
Focuses on the different viral internet phenomena, viral videos, and memes - an idea I suggested in relation to this category was to end each video on the channel with a meme of the day.
Focuses on the latest technological stories such as the newest releases of for example the iPhone 7.
An important thing for us as a brand is that we want all students to turn and return to our platforms - twitter, facebook, webpage, snap chat - first, be their primary source of news regarding students. That they can rely on us as an accurate and balanced channel.
During this meeting as we decided for the categories, colours, the web designs a.s.o, we also made sure to come up with some ideas to what we could focus our news story for the project on. We wanted the content of our episode to be about something new, something different that we could think students, we would be interested in hearing about.
Viral videos, we thought it was interesting to think about how videos actually go viral, we talked about how youtube has had a major impact on internet videos as well as viral videos. And decided that speaking to a YouTuber would be a great way to set the base for the topic.
Sequels and prequels, how many of them that are made in the film industry, and if it really is beneficial or desirable for the audience to drag the story on and on. We talked about and concluded with the fact that the industry only seems to make sequels and prequels to the original films if they are very popular. And how this could be put as a question to if that means that it is out own fault that continues to develop and create followups.

CHICAGO – The average active person generates enough energy from everyday motion to power a smartphone for three hours, and the average smartphone user runs out of juice before the end of the day. Enter AMPY, a new startup that has solved this all too common problem by inventing the first pocket-sized wearable device that captures the energy from everyday motion and turns it into power for smartphones and other USB-powered devices. Today, the company is announcing the launch of a Kickstarter campaign with a $100,000 goal to bring the world's smallest charging device powered by movement to market.
The compact, lightweight wearable device transforms kinetic energy, or energy generated from everyday movements such as walking, running or biking, into battery power for smartphones, smartwatches, and wearable devices. Users can charge while on the go at the same rate of a wall outlet or store their energy for later use when they can't get to a power outlet.
A companion smartphone app lets users track energy generated, calories burned and hours of smartphone or smartwatch battery life. Users can compare their stats with friends and other AMPY users and can share their progress on Twitter and Facebook to stay charged and motivated.
AMPY's power generation capacity greatly exceeds current market standards for kinetic chargers. The company's proprietary and patent-pending inductor technology enables the small device to capture and store about a week's worth of motion-generated energy. Existing kinetic chargers capable of generating and storing this amount of energy would require a device three times the size and weight of AMPY.
AMPY's sleek, curved design contours comfortably on the body, allowing physically active users to easily integrate AMPY into any type of activity throughout the day. To protect the device and enhance functionality, an accessory kit will also be available and will include a band, sleeve and clip. The band has an adjustable strap and may be worn as a wrist, arm or leg band.
The AMPY Kickstarter campaign will run through Nov. 9, 2014. The first 250 backers will receive AMPY for the early bird price of $75. Following the Kickstarter campaign, AMPY will be available for pre-order at getampy.com for $95 or $125 with an accessory kit. To view more about the project and to get your own AMPY, visit https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1071086547/ampy-power-your-devices-from-your-motion.
Headquartered in Chicago, AMPY was founded in 2014 by three engineering PhD candidates at Northwestern University on a mission to transform human movement into usable energy. AMPY empowers people with the ability to generate their own energy and use it for the devices they depend on the most. Learn more about AMPY by visiting www.getampy.com and connect on Twitter and Facebook.


SAN FRANCISCO—With Bob Marley's "Get Up, Stand Up For Your Rights" blasting in the background, about 150 loud and raucous Wal-Mart workers and local union supporters marched down Market Street in downtown San Francisco on Thursday toward the Four Seasons hotel, where Wal-Mart board of director member and Yahoo! CEO Marissa Mayer lives in a penthouse apartment. When they arrived, they held a dance party with a message: Raise the wages and improve conditions for some of the nations lowest paid workers.
In addition to their own action, workers joined another earlier in the day at SF City Hall where immigrant-rights groups were rallying in support of a Due Process Ordinance to stop police collaboration with Immigration & Customs Enforcement.
The Wal-Mart protest was part of a nationwide effort in 15 cities to demand livable wages, fair working conditions, the right to unionize, and the reinstatement of workers who participated in a strike against the retailer in June.
Since June, nearly 80 workers have been illegally disciplined, according the United Food and Commercial Workers International (UFCW). More than 100 Unfair Labor Practices charges have been filed against Wal-Mart with the National Labor Relations Board.
OUR Walmart, a coalition of Wal-Mart workers and organizers backed by UFCW, organized the nationwide protest in an effort to push the giant retailer to pay fulltime wages of $25,000 a year, or, $12 an hour.
Wal-Mart spokesperson Brooke Buchanan told USA Today that the protests were having little impact on the company's 4,600 U.S. stores.

Weekend Box Office Report: 'Iron Man 3′ and 'The Greaty Gatsby' Divide and Conquer
Jacob Hall Published: May 12, 2013
No one expected 'The Great Gatsby' to take number one at the box office over 'Iron Man 3' this weekend, but it did the next best thing: it opened huge at number two. There is no shame in this silver medal.
Film Weekend Per Screen
1 Iron Man 3 $72,472,000 (-58.4) $17,040 $284,893,000
2 The Great Gatsby $51,115,000 $14,460 $51,115,000
3 Pain and Gain $5,000,000 (-33.4) $1,514 $41,608,000
4 Peeples $4,850,000 $2,376 $4,850,000
5 42 $4,650,000 (-23.2)
$1,587 $84,732,000
6 Oblivion $3,863,000 (-31.5) $1,395 $81,655,000
7 The Croods $3,600,000 (-14.3) $1,358 $173,215,000
8 The Big Wedding $2,500,000 (-35.6) $1,088 $18,288,000
9 Mud $2,343,000 (+8.4) $2,744 $8,363,000
10 Oz the Great and Powerful $802,000 (-62.0) $1,036 $229,985,000
We'll get to 'Iron Man 3' in a minute. Let's take a moment to stare slack-jawed at the box office top ten and be genuinely shocked that an adaptation of a classic book that everyone was forced to read in high school opened to genuine blockbuster numbers. There is very little in 'The Great Gatsby' that screams "$51 million opening weekend!," but the film has apparently struck a chord. The lesson to be learned here is that casting Leonardo DiCaprio as a doomed lover is the kind of thing that'll get people flocking to your F. Scott Fitzgerald adaptation in droves. It'll be interesting to see how this one performs in the weeks ahead, especially with more loud, male-friendly movies on the way.
Above 'Gatsby,' 'Iron Man 3' took the expected 58% drop for a $72 million dollar weekend and a grand total of $284 million. By next week, it will effortlessly out-gross both 'Iron Man' ($318 million) and 'Iron Man 2' ($312 million). $400 million is still the sure bet here, but unless it gets completely derailed by 'Star Trek Into Darkness' and 'Fast and Furious 6,' it may have a serious shot at $500 million. It's not going to do 'Avengers' numbers, but when you've made a billion dollars worldwide, wo cares? In two weeks, 'Iron Man 3' is already the highest grossing film of the year and it's very likely to stay that way.
As impressive as 'The Great Gatsby' and 'Iron Man 3' were this weekend, it was all at the expense of just about every other movie in release, making most of the top ten look like a very sad place indeed. There are a few bright spots lingering amidst the carnage -- '42' continues to be the sleeper hit of 2013 and it's looking very likely to cross the $100 million mark and 'Mud' actually saw an increase in ticket sales, bringing the indie's gross to $8.3 million.
Not so good for 'Pain and Gain,' which has seen its decent start hit a brick wall with the arrival of the summer movie season. With a $5 million weekend and a total of $41 million, the Michael Bay comedy is on track to break even at best. Still, it faired better than 'Peeples,' which opened in fourth place with $4.8 million. The Tyler Perry brand is only strong with films actually directed by Tyler Perry, it seems.
Meanwhile, 'Oblivion' is continuing to struggle. For many movies, $81 million with a promise of $100 million is a good thing, but when you're an expensive Tom Cruise sci-fi movie, those are very, very disappointing numbers. How the heck has an animated caveman movie ('The Croods,' currently inhabiting spot seven) run circles around the biggest movie star in the world?
As for 'The Big Wedding'? It's just waiting to die. And 'Oz the Great and Powerful'? Happy to be back in the top ten, but basking in its retirement.
Next week sees the arrival of 'Star Trek Into Darkness.' Expect it to snatch the number one spot away from Tony Stark.

Millennials, once a mysterious generation of selfie-loving, smartphone obsessed individuals, are now one of the largest generations. According to PwC they will soon make up 50% of the global workforce.
Millennials are often described as selfish, having grown up in an individualistic culture. However, studies have shown they have very similar goals to previous generations when it comes to starting a family and getting married, but they are choosing to do this later in life. Why? Dr. Twenge suggests it's because they have big ambitions to achieve before settling down. Meanwhile, they are more tolerant and less prejudiced than previous generations. Sounds like a pretty great bunch to me! (Disclaimer: yes, I am also a millennial).
Millennials are the customers of the future. Over the next 10 years they will be making purchasing decisions, forming brand loyalties and influencing their peers. They are a big, powerful generation with high standards and unique characteristics that have a huge influence on future market trends.
Here at Tobias & Tobias we are experts in the FinTech realm and have created a multitude of solutions for companies with a spectrum of users. Through our work we have discovered 6 things that can't be ignored when designing for millennials.
Millennials want speed, ease and efficiency along with instant gratification. Do whatever you can to reduce the friction between them discovering your brand and consuming your product. Provide them with a straightforward focus on delivering a specialised product that's purpose built for them.
Optimising your product for speed is vital, along with ensuring accessibility across all devices. As a result, many FinTechs choose to design with a mobile first approach.
Millennials are increasingly using the 'sharing economy'. Due to the financial constraints they face, they are reluctant to buy items that were once considered essential such as a car or house. A new wave of services caters to users wanting access without the burden of ownership, such as Airbnb, ZipCar and Uber.
Traditional financial services use business models based on cross selling. Often those services are sub-optimal, but the consumers don't know that. Only when a new alternative becomes available does the consumer realise they have been paying for a mediocre product. For example, when there was an increase of passive management and Exchange-Traded Funds the consumers realised they were overpaying for underperforming mutual funds.
Peer-to-peer lending is a great example of FinTech and the sharing economy merging to leverage under-utilised capital for investment purposes (without the bank taking a huge cut!).
A study by Aspect found that 73% of millennial consumers wanted the ability to solve product and service issues on their own. Allowing users to take control not only gives them a positive impression of the service but it inevitably saves money on customer service costs.
Riskalyze is a FinTech start-up allowing advisors to create portfolios with just the right amount of risk. It is built on the foundation that to accomplish long- term financial goals, it takes one great short-term decision at a time.
Riskalyze recognised that average investors tend to sabotage their investment decisions. They set out to turn this around by creating a short-term framework that allows the average investor to understand and react to risk more appropriately and make valuable short-term decisions.
Millennials insist on transparency: they rely more on friends and families' recommendations than traditional advertising, causing some companies to struggle to engage with them.
A key reason FinTechs have become popular among millennials is their ability to provide users with a clear overview of their financial activities.
Monzo, an online only bank, provides real time account updates and automatically categorises spending to learn your behaviour and suggest suitable budgets. This is different to traditional banks that often take days for money spent to leave your online bank account, giving an inaccurate overview of your finances.
Millennials love brands that have a positive social impact. They also want to feel special. FinTech companies achieve this through their offering of investment and savings advice, advanced analytics on digital transactions and personalised offers.
As Artificial Intelligence becomes more prevalent, the FinTech space has started to take advantage of its capabilities. There is a belief that millennials have poor money management compared to previous generations. Companies, such as Finch and Chip, attempt to counteract this by using AI to help users identify negative spending patterns and opportunities for saving.
Start-up Kensho, uses big data and machine learning techniques to analyse how real-world events affect markets. Larger companies, such as BlackRock, use AI to improve investment decision-making.
The basic needs of consumers in the financial space have for the most part stayed the same. As a result, the core functionality of the majority of finance applications haven't changed. The key innovations that have occurred have been streamlining existing processes. New features are typically additions rather than true innovations.
FinTech companies allow for new products and services to be available to consumer groups who may not have previously been able to access traditional financial services. For example, TransferWise provides a simple product at a lower cost. FinTechs also have a focus on enriching customer experience through simple and engaging interactions. A project we completed with RightIndem, an online motor claims platform, enhanced the customer experience causing a 60% increase in renewals during pilots.
Millennials are expected to increase their wealth considerably as they enter their prime-earning years, resulting in a significant rise in liquid assets. According to Deloitte, the combined net worth of millennials is estimated to grow to between £13-17 trillion. However, they tend to be more conservative with their finances than previous generations, perhaps due to previous financial crises. Plus, they are increasingly more likely to consult peers and media before acting on expert recommendations.
Millennials consider mobile technology a key aspect when using financial services. In the future, millennials will no longer be a simple buzzword created for marketing purposes but a main contributor to your revenue. There is a great opportunity for FinTech companies to grow market share through paying close attention and addressing the needs of millennials, so think twice before overlooking them.

More antivaccination puffery on The Huffington Post
A few days ago, I posted a long piece about how antivaccination fallacies are being given wide distribution on the new group celebrity blog, The Huffington Post. I then posted an addendum mentioning for the sake of fairness that at least The Huffington Post allowed one expert to post a rebuttal. Well, as expected, it didn't take long for Dr. Jay Gordon to post his response to the rebuttal. As with his other pieces, it's a relatively content-free post, in which once again Dr. Gordon makes dire insinuations that those who don't believe that the objective evidence supports the contention that mercury in vaccines causes autism are shills for the pharmaceutical industry:
The American Academy of Pediatrics (of which I have been a member for a quarter century) has a very cozy relationship with the vaccine industry. Most authors and speakers in the vaccine controversy have been paid consultants to the vaccine industry. Most of these researchers still accept funds while commenting on the issues.
OK, Dr. Gordon, so you think that the American Academy of Pediatrics is biased because of a "cozy" relationship with the vaccine industry? If that's so, then why has the AAP come out for removing thimerosal from vaccines--as you yourself pointed out, "adamantly" for it. (I'd have to guess that it's mainly it's because of activists like you, not because of the experimental evidence for a link, which has always been very weak at best and is becoming weaker and weaker with each new study. Apparently, the AAP's "cozy" relationship with the pharmaceutical industry didn't stop it from recommending this.) I'd also turn Dr. Gordon's insinuation around and ask him if he's ever accepted funds from any groups advocating that thimerosal in vaccines is a major cause of autism. If he has, then perhaps he would explain to me why his "accepting funds while commenting on the issues" himself" is any different from other doctors doing the same.
But what about researchers on the "other" side of the issue. In Dr. Gordon's view, apparently it's not good for one's objectivity to have a financial interest in one side of the issue. Fair enough; most people would probably agree that a researcher shouldn't have a strong financial interest in one side of a question. (Leave aside for the moment that most scientists who don't have a financial interest in vaccines also have concluded that there is no link between thimerosal in vaccines and autism and not just in this country.) Given that, why, then, does it not seem to bother Dr. Gordon in the least that David Geier and Dr. Mark Geier, whose research he once again singles out to cite approvingly and both of whom make a significant part of their livings providing legal counsel and consulting and expert witness services to parents pursuing legal action for alleged "injuries" due to vaccination? Doesn't that count as a financial conflict of interest? Yet Dr. Gordon thinks their research is "excellent." Or why doesn't it bother him that their work has been criticized for sloppiness and methodological flaws and they've been rebuked for risking patient confidentiality while mining the CDC's database.
Oh, wait. I get it. The Geiers are not in the pockets of the pharmaceutical industry (pharmceutical industry: always bad). They're in the pockets of trial lawyers and antivaccination activists (antivaccination activists: always good). They're on the "right" side; so Dr. Gordon appears willing to overlook their blatant conflict of interest, while at the same time making vague insinuations of a conflict of interest against by claiming that most researchers in the field accept funding from pharmaceutical companies that manufacture vaccines.
It looks as though Dr. Gordon is going to be a regular at The Huffington Post. Unfortunately, that means he'll have a huge platform for pushing his antivaccination misinformation. That means he'll also probably be occasionally providing me with ideas for this blog for some time to come. But I'd give up all that material in an instant if he's stop making exaggerated claims for a link between thimerosal and autism that almost certainly doesn't exist.
Skeptico 5/29/2005 11:41 AM
I note this latest Puffington Host post accepts comments. Just sayin..
They'll never get it will they? Until they actually see the devestation that those diseases actually heaped on the generations that came right before us, they will never get it.
They see the diseases as benign chicken pox like diseases that were blips on the screen of life that caused discomfort and a challenge to the routine of life. It might have occassionally caused a bit of chaos, but in reality, how serious were they, really now? Must we really jam these needle's full of poison into the arms & legs of our precious innocent pure children and damage their immune systems beyond repair for diseases that really, are natural and quite easy for the immune system to fight naturally?
Sorry for the deep sarcasm. Wednesday we find out of my husband's heart problems are the complications of polio from 1958, something our generation will never deal with. People who don't like vaccines and think they are poison ... GET A GRIP ...those diseases KILLED!!!! They MAIMED and they were DEVASTATING!
They were NOT chicken pox or a mere interruption. They were dangerous, disabling and deadly.
Vaccinate.
I have made a habit of checking news.google.com for specific words like "measles", "mumps", "pertussis" and other diseases.
This has led me to news articles on where the diseases are breaking out (like the mumps epidemic in the UK), but also where journalists write the latest sob story. These are sob stories where a parent is blaiming a vaccine for their child's austism. At least once every three months or so it will have the phrase "the thimerosal that is in the MMR vaccine". Since MMR is a live virus vaccine and does NOT contain thimerosal I take this as an indication that the journalist did not do any research.
I will often email the author to tell them that they are wrong. So far only two out of half a dozen or so have emailed me back saying "oops, I made a mistake". I am the poisonous person who started this thread:
http://forums.randi.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=40903
By the way, I never did get a reply back for Discover Magazine for this travesty:
http://www.discover.com/issues/mar-05/features/our-preferred-poison/ ... the author has a paragraph about the MMR vaccine withOUT stating that it never had thimerosal in the first place!!!!
Ron Sullivan 5/31/2005 12:39 PM
Hell, even chicken pox isn't "just chicken pox." When I feel the need to swat with an effective anecdote, I mention the kid I took care of years ago (before the vaccine) who lost his legs at the age of two to complications of chicken pox.
If I want to swat hard, I mention that the facts that he was so young, still had lots of growing to do (including the bone growth in his stumps) and scar tissue is unyielding and doesn't grow meant that he had to come in periodically for scar revisions -- which need was signalled by serious pain. And that this would go on until he reached adulthood... Which he has by now.
The picture of a four-year-old child writhing, weeping, and waving his stumps in the air, well, this is about the power of anecdotes I guess. You and I know that anecdotes don't make good science, but their illustrative power can be useful to us. That power is why the hottest news stories get a photo too. Sometimes people need the picture for which lab research and double-blind studies (and the passion that drives them) are the text.
gadfly 5/31/2005 6:33 PM
(Meekly raising his hand, gadfly beings to speak)
I'm coming to this topic late (and not as informed as I should be). But here are my observations/questions at this point.
If thimerisol contributed to (or caused) autism, shouldn't there be an epidemiological increase around the time that Thimerisol is first used in vaccines? Or has it always been used, and therefore no datapoint can be taken? Further, shouldn't there be a direct correlation between number of vaccinations and number of autism cases? I'm assuming (for this moment) that these studies are out there and show no correlation.
Second, if there is a genetic component to Autism, could it be "triggered" by something such as mercury or some other external agent? (I am very interested in this topic of "triggered" genetic predisposition. Any recommendations for further reading?)
Third, if mercury is causal, at what level? And related to this, how much mercury does it take to affect a fetus or even the neural tube (does it affect the neural tube?) Further study/question...Is there any correlation between mothers who got flu vaccines and autism in their babies?
Forth - is there a cumulative affect wherein environmental exposures to mercury combine with other types of exposure to somehow "overwhelm" the body?
Final (for the day) When the EPA says it's okay to consume this much fish (based on mercury levels), or a power plant can emit so much mercury, I have to assume (cause you know it's their job to know this stuff) that they consider the entire spectrum of exposure for a given pollutant. That is to say, they take into account that the average American eats so much fish, gets one flu vaccine a year, has some other exposure factors, so therefore we can allow power plants to emit x parts of mercury knowing that the average person will absorb Y parts from that source in addition to everything else. At which point they will still be below a certain threshold considered unhealthy for Americans. Does the EPA do that?
Yikes. That's a lot of heavy-duty questions.
The very reason that the mercury-autism crowd started to postulate a link is because supposedly autism was unknown until the 1940's, a few years after the first thimerosal-containing vaccines were introduced. However, given that autism wasn't described as a specific condition until 1943 by Dr. Leo Kanner, that is not surprising. Yes, back in 1911 or so, Eugen Bleuler coined the word "autism" in schizophrenic patients who screened themselves off and were self-absorbed, but "autism" wasn't considered a specific diagnosis until the mid-1940's. So naturally, there was no "autism" as such before then. There were "schizophrenics," some of whom had "autistic" characteristics. For a very long time autism and psychosis were often confused. Given the relatively primitive state of psychiatry in the first half of the 20th century, who knows what the true autism rate was?
Once again, correlation is not causation.
As for the mercury link, I have been unable to find any good evidence that the rate, severity, or prevalence of autism is in any way correlated with dose of mercury.
Finally, I'm not entirely clear on exactly how the FDA came up with the maximum recommended mercury guidelines. That's something I should look into more when I get a chance. I do know that the FDA tends to err on the very conservative side when making such guidelines.
Clearly there is a genetic component to autism. (The 4:1 boy:girl ratio of autistics alone argues for that.) However, the evidence for an environmental "trigger" is very weak at best, nonexistent at worst.

Home / Professional / HTPC / Samsung calls to use multi-layer Blu-ray discs for 4K video
Samsung calls to use multi-layer Blu-ray discs for 4K video
Anton Shilov January 9, 2014 HTPC
This year's Consumer Electronics Show clearly demonstrated that the 4K ultra-high-definition video format is heading to the mass market. Consumer and computer electronics companies need to sell a new technology with a beautiful name, so they will continue promoting UHD. But there are problems with certain standards as well as there is a lack of media to distribute 4K content and the lack of the latter translates into lack of demand. Samsung Electronics proposes a simple and elegant solution.
While there are displays and televisions capable of displaying content in 3840*2160 resolution, there are not a lot of 4K movies available commercially these days. Leading consumer electronics makers (such as Sony, Samsung and LG) have to ship special hard drive-based players with pre-loaded movies in UHD quality with their 4K/5K TV-sets. It is also possible to stream ultra-high-def movies via the Internet, but that requires well-connected data-centers for service providers as well as high-bandwidth Internet access for customers. Unfortunately, existing consumer-grade Blu-ray discs do not provide enough storage for movies in 4K format, so packaged media is unavailable as well.
But Samsung Electronics proposes a simple and natural way to distribute content in ultra-high-definition: to use multi-layer Blu-ray discs (BDs) that have existed for years in BDXL standard. The BDXL specifications enable triple-layer 100GB RE (rewritable) and R (write-once) discs as well as quad-layer 128GB R discs. There could also be quad-layer 100GB discs.
Considering that 4K UHD resolution is four times higher compared to full-HD resolution (and thus requires four times more storage space), keeping in mind that the HEVC/H.265 video codec to be used for UHD is 51% -74% more efficient than currently used MPEG4-AVC/H.264 and assuming that a 1080p movie without bonus features requires 40GB of space, 100GB – 128GB should be enough for a movie in 4K UHD*.
Current consumer Blu-ray disc players do not support BDs with 25GB+ layers (each BDXL layer has 33GB capacity) and cannot read more than two layers. But already available Blu-ray burners for PCs perfectly support BDXL media. Installing lasers and mechanics from those drives into CE-grade players should not be a technical problems for big companies. Industry-standard video codecs suitable for compression of 4K video – HEVC/H.265 and VP9 – are supported by designers of decoder chips. There are HEVC/H.265-supporting chips for TVs on the market already.
Vice-president for consumer electronics at Samsung Australia Philip Newton told The Australian news-paper that once all the CE companies are "on the same page" with a clear intention to standardize a "Blu-ray 4K UHD" technology and commercialize it as soon as possible, the specification may be finalized shortly and actual discs may emerge as early as "by the end of the year."
There may be roadblocks for usage of BDXL-derived media for UHD content. Big CE makers and major studios may decide that they need additional layers of protection for 4K video beyond HDCP, AACS, BD+ and BD-ROM mark that are used today. Development of such standards takes a long time. Besides, it is unclear whether replication factories can replicate multi-layer BD media. Finally, Sony and Panasonic are working on a new optical disc standard with recording capacity of at least 300GB per disc; the specification should be ready by late 2015. While such capacity is not needed for 4K UHD movies, it will be required for 8K UHD movies (in 7680*4320 resolution) several years from now. Nobody wants to have a new standard war. Moreover, CE makers might prefer to avoid launching two [presumably incompatible] consumer-oriented media standards in a relatively short period of time.
KitGuru Says: While it is hard to believe that a "Blu-ray 4K UHD" standard could be finalized and even commercialized by the end of 2014, Samsung's proposal seems to be a rational one. Blu-ray technology is mature and using it should be cost-efficient.
*In case a 1080p movie is encoded using the HEVC/H.265 codec (which is at least 50% more efficient), it will require maximum 20GB of storage space (instead of 40GB in case of encoding using MPEG4-AVC/H.265). It is logical to assume that the same movie in 4x resolution will require 80GB of space.

Semi-auto rifles are a specialty here at Impact Guns. From kid-friendly guns such as the famous Ruger 10/22 to more advanced designs for home defense, long range shooting, and hunting- we carry them all. A semi-automatic rifle is a magazine fed rifle that automatically reloads another round into the chamber with each pull of the trigger. The king of semi-auto rifles is the venerable AR-15 (sometimes referred to as an AR15 or an M4)-- and with good reason. The AR-15 assault rifle (sometimes called a black rifle) is the modern civilian incarnation of the original M16 military rifle. It is a platform more-so than a gun model: there are hundreds of companies that manufacture parts and components for this platform, and we have dedicated areas for them: AR-15 Rifles For Sale and AR-15 Parts For Sale. The AK-47 is another popular model, again manufactured by many different companies today. These can be also be found in their own areas: AK-47 Rifles For Sale and AK-47 Parts For Sale. For plinking, home defense, hunting, long range shooting, or just plain fun-- Impact Guns has the semi-automatic rifle you are looking for!

Festival breakfast with Natalia Komarova and guests of the Spirit of Fire IDFF was held in Ugra
The traditional Festival breakfast with actors, directors, film people and participants of the 18th Spirit of Fire IDFF was held by the Governor of Ugra Natalia Komarova.
The head of the region told the guests that last year, the Year of Theatre in Russia, a nationwide event took place in Kogalym: Ugra became the first region in Russia to open a branch of the state academic Maly Theatre of Russia.

"I heard about the Festival a long time ago and I aimed that one day I will be here with you. The team is amazing. When people take an interest in your work, it's inspiring. Many famous directors took their first steps here. It's great that the Festival has such an idea," said Rita Azevedo Gomes, the director from Portugal.

When permanent residency is granted, the refugee will have adjustment of status date recorded as the day he or she entered into the United States as a refugee. All family members' should apply I-485 together with the main applicant. The application packets should be mailed together in the same mailing envelope.
A person who was granted the asylum status is eligible to apply for a green card (permanent residence) one year after receiving the grant of asylum. The spouse and children are also eligible to apply for a green card if they were admitted to the United States as asylees or were included in the asylee's grant of asylum.
An asylee may no longer qualify for asylum status with the right to remain permanently in the United States if country conditions change in his or her home country or if the asylee no longer meet the definition of an asylee due to changed circumstances. The asylee must meet certain criteria namely, he or she must have been physically present in the United States for at least one year after being granted asylum, continue to meet the definition of a asylee (or continue to be the spouse or child of such asylee), have not abandoned asylee status, are not firmly resettled in any foreign country, and continue to be admissible to the United States.

Spelt wheat has its own little jacket call a husk. We leave its protective coat on right up until it is milled. This makes sure all of the flavour is contained within the grain.
We know how fantastic our spelt wheat is. We can also prove it's fantastic...we use the latest TASSC approved testing facilities at Craggs & Co. Each batch of spelt wheat is tested for moisture, protein, hagberg levels and bushel weight.

Die dem heiligen Stephanus geweihte Pfarrkirche Triftern liegt in der niederbayerischen Gemeinde Triftern.

Geschichte
Triftern wird als Truftara zur Zeit des Passauer Bischofs Reginhar von Passau erwähnt. Damals ging ein Klostergut von Postmünster an den Bischof über. Dieses wurde zur Ausstattung der Pfarrei Triftern dem dortigen Pfarrer übergeben, der Kirche wurde das Patrozinium der Domkirche zu Passau, nämlich das des Märtyrers St. Stephan, gegeben. 1170 ist Triftern als Säkularpfarrei bezeugt, in diesem Jahr übergab der Priester Impertus dem Kloster Asbach mehrere Besitzungen.

1193 wurde der untere Teil des Kirchturms aus Buckelsteinquadern als Wehrturm erbaut. Dieser konnte nur über eine Leiter im ersten Stock betreten werden, zudem wurden zwei unterirdische Gänge angelegt, um den Turm ungesehen verlassen zu können. Im 13. Jahrhundert wurden durch den Bischof Gebhard I. von Plain die Einkünfte von Triftern dem Passauer Domkapitel mit der Auflage übertragen, dass in der ganzen Bistum Passau das Fest des hl. Rupert gefeiert werde. 1684 fiel Triftern wieder an das Bistum Passau zurück. 1291 hatte Papst Pius IV. der Kirche zu Triftern einen Ablassbrief erteilt; damals war der hl. Nikolaus der Kirchenpatron.

Bis in das 17. Jahrhundert war Triftern Sitz eines Dekanates, dieses wurde dann nach Pfarrkirchen verlegt. Heute gehört die  Pfarre Triftern zum Dekanat Pfarrkirchen und bildet mit der Pfarrei Neukirchen bei Pfarrkirchen den Pfarrverband Triftern.

Bau
Die heutige Kirche stammt zu wesentlichen Teilen (Langhaus, Mittelschiff und achteckiger Turmaufsatz) aus den Jahren 1465 bis 1473 und ist von dem Baumeister Michael Sallinger erbaut worden. Bauherr war Pfarrer Albert Schönhofer, späterer Weihbischof von Passau. Der Westturm, der frühere Wehrturm, ist in das Langhaus eingerückt. Sein achtachsiger Oberbau ist spätgotisch. Nach dem Einsturz der gotischen Turmpyramide wurde 1741 eine barocke Kuppelhaube aufgesetzt.

Das Chor stammt aus der Zeit um 1490. In der dreischiffigen Westempore findet man eine Freskomalerei von 1583.

Der spätgotische einschiffige Bau aus der zweiten Hälfte des 15. Jahrhunderts erhielt 1860/61 zwei Seitenschiffe. Die Ausstattung der Kirche ist neugotisch. Die Seitenschiffe sind neugotisch und wurden anlässlich der Kirchenerweiterung von 1860/61 angelegt. 1861 wurde eine Orgel aufgestellt. Die neugotische Einrichtung (Hochaltar, Seitenaltäre, Kanzel und Kreuzweg) wurde zwischen 1865 und 1871 durch den Münchner Bildhauer Anselm Sickinger angefertigt.

Ausstattung
Der Hochaltar zeigt im Mittelteil den Kirchenpatron, links von ihm steht der hl. Laurentius und rechts der hl. Vinzenz von Saragossa. Zudem finden sich hier die Statuen des Bischofs Maximilian und des Wanderbischofs Valentin.

Der rechte Seitenaltar ist ein Christusaltar. Im Mittelteil zeigt Christus dem ungläubigen Thomas seine Wunden. Daneben sind die Hll. Petrus und Paulus im Halbrelief dargestellt. Daneben befinden sich die Hll. Florian und Sebastian. Der linke Seitenaltar ist ein Marienaltar. Im Mittelbild überreicht Maria dem hl. Dominikus einen Rosenkranz. Als Nebenfiguren sind hier die hl. Dorothea und die hl. Barbara aufgestellt.

Die Kanzel zeigt Christus und die vier Evangelisten. Schriftbänder enthalten die Texte der Zehn Gebote. Am Schalldeckel sind die Büsten der vier Kirchenväter mit ihren Symbolen angebracht.

Das barocke Chorbogenkreuz stammt noch von 1660. Am unteren Ende findet sich das Wappen des Pfarrers Andreas Schott. Die Orgel wurde 1963 bis 1974 von den Firmen Wölfl und Meier erbaut bzw. erweitert. Die Orgel hat drei Manuale und 56 Registern. Mit ihren 3820 Pfeifen ist sie die viertgrößte Orgel im Bistum Passau.

In der Kirche ist eine Reihe von beschrifteten Grabsteinen zu finden. So etwa der rotmarmorne Grabstein des Leo von Lenberg zu Triftern (um 1520) mit einem Reliefbild des Gekreuzigten und der knienden Familie, des Albrecht Schenkh von Stauffenberg († 10. Dezember 1633), der Maria Anna Barbara Gräfin zu Lodron († 10. Juni 1765), des Dekans Maximilian Ferdinand Hormayr von Hortenberg († 11. April 1757), des Pfarrers Andreas Schott († 18. Dezember 1684) sowie eine Gedenktafel an das NS-Opfer Franz Jägerstätter.

It can be hard for a child to tell you how they are feeling. Take photos of your child pretending to be happy, mad, sad, sick along with any other emotion that might be helpful. Print out and cut so that just your child's face shows. Laminate. Make simple puppets using popsicle sticks and laminated faces. It might be easier for your child to hold up a puppet instead of telling you how they feel.

Iran slams desecration of al-Aqsa Mosque
TEHRAN, Jul. 29 (MNA) – Iranian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman on Tuesday strongly condemned repeated attacks of radical Israeli settlers on al-Aqsa Mosque and Palestinian worshipers.
Marzieh Afkham, while slamming the escalation of tensions and attacks on al-Aqsa Mosque, said that such moves are directly supported and guided by Tel Aviv regime.
Invasion against al-Aqsa Mosque, she said, demonstrated aggressive nature of the Zionist regime in violating human rights of the Palestinians.
The spokeswoman called for support of different countries, especially Islamic states, international and regional organizations to stop desecration of the Islamic sanctities and violation of human rights of the Palestinians.
On Sunday, Israelis broke into the al-Aqsa compound and engaged in violent clashes with Palestinians.
They stormed the al-Aqsa compound and closed its gates after the clashes erupted between Palestinian Muslim worshipers and Israelis.
Dozens of worshipers were injured and at least 6 of them were detained by Israeli forces. Many of them also suffered from suffocation due to teargas inhalation.

Our son Buzz Michelangelo Fletcher arrived on Thursday 13th March – bang on 7pm. I still had two and a half weeks left until my due date and had all sorts of plans for my last bit of 'freedom', but it seems Buzz wanted to come out and join us – eager to say hello to the world. In fact, we were out for dinner with all the McBusted family (celebrating Danny's birthday) when my waters broke – so I'm pretty certain Buzz just wanted to be part of the fun. I can't tell you how giddy we all were when we left our friends in the restaurant knowing that the next time we'd see them we'd have a child. So on to the labour… As regular readers know, we'd planned to use hypnobirthing techniques and go drug free as much as possible. Well, thanks to Hollie from London Hypnobirthing and a lot of homework from us (if you can call spending time to relax with one another each day work), that's exactly what we achieved. I can honestly say that my labour was far from the horror stories people love sharing – it was the most amazingly powerful experience I've ever had.
I never realised my body was so clever! During the final stages I felt like I'd taken every drug known to man – I clearly hadn't, but I was calm enough to allow my body to produce a whole heap of oxytocin and endorphins with the help of some Michael McIntyre standup, singing along to Coldplay albums and my wonderful husband Tom. He was as encouraging as I knew he would be – stuffing jelly babies into our mouths, rubbing my back and reminding me to breathe anytime a frown appeared on my brow. He anchored me and made sure the day was as we'd hoped it would be.
I'm so pleased we chose to go down the hypnobirthing route and that I ignored the few negative comments directed at me (since when has telling someone they'll be 'demanding drugs when the time comes' helpful or encouraging?!), although I obviously understand hypnobirthing isn't for everyone. I'm not about to start judging anyone for taking the drugs offered or opting for a c-section if necessary (we all just want our little babies healthily kicking in our arms), but I'd definitely recommend looking into hypnobirthing when the time comes if I've stirred an ounce of curiosity.

Premises liability cases can occur on private or public property, residential or commercial property, inside or outside of a building. These cases can result from various situations as long as the injury occurs on the property of another.
Some examples are building code violations, dangerous conditions on sidewalks, driveways, or parking areas, falls on slippery floors, hallways, or stairways, fires, swimming pool accidents, and even criminal attacks caused by inadequate security.
Under the law, there are several factors that determine whether the property owner or occupier is liable for injuries sustained by a visitor to the property.
