Unicode 6 standard released, over 2000 additional characters
Today a new version of Unicode has become available. Version 6.0.0 of the industry standard for coding, processing and presenting text is also the first version released exclusively online.
The new standard introduces many changes, including over 2000 new characters, new properties and data files, some adjustments to existing characters and some changes in the text of the standard itself. New letters include: more than 1000 special characters; Indian rupee sign - new official currency symbol; more than 200 combined ideograms used in China, Taiwan and Japan; three new styles - Mandiac (classical language of the Iranian region), Batak (Sumatra and Indonesia) and Brahmi (northern India), as well as improved support for African languages.
Part of this huge number of new characters are the so-called emoji characters. Similar to emoticons, they originate from Japanese mobile communications and are now widely used in the East Asian region. The Emoji set included in Unicode 6 was taken from the character set used by the three most popular mobile operators in Japan. This set includes such emotions as "Smiling face with horns", "Downed table", "Kiss the cat with closed eyes". All of them can be found at this link (.pdf).
You can familiarize yourself with the Unicode standard at this link . Or learn about Emoji on the official Unicode page .

1st Source Bank has donated $5,000 to the Franciscan Alliance Foundation in support of their program to reduce the number of child-occupant fatalities and injuries in motor-vehicle accidents in LaPorte and Porter counties.
Bob Ax, 1st Source Regional President, presented the donation to Tony Englert, with the Franciscan Alliance Foundation, and Jennifer Homan of St. Anthony Health.
The funds will assist with a permanent car seat inspection site and monthly events at retail stores, health fairs and community events to ensure that parents are educated in properly restraining children in motor vehicles. Additionally, the funds will provide car seats for those in need of assistance.


Purdue University researchers have studied football players for two seasons at Jefferson High School in Lafayette, Ind., where 21 players completed the study the first season and 24 the second season, including 16 repeating players.
Helmet-sensor impact data from each player were compared with brain-imaging scans and cognitive tests performed before, during and after each season.
Researchers evaluated players using a type of brain imaging technology called functional magnetic resonance imaging, or fMRI, along with a computer-based neurocognitive screening test. The fMRI scans reveal which parts of the brain are most active during specific tasks.
Thomas Talavage, an expert in functional neuroimaging and co-director of the Purdue MRI Facility, said the scans indicate players are adapting their mental processes to deal with brain changes.
Findings, detailed in a paper to appear online in the Journal of Biomechanics, are contrary to conventional thinking.
The paper was written by mechanical engineering graduate student Evan Breedlove, Nauman, Leverenz, Talavage, former Purdue professor of educational studies Jeffrey Gilger, biomedical engineering graduate student Meghan Robinson, health and kinesiology graduate student Katherine E. Morigaki, electrical and computer engineering graduate student Umit Yoruk, mechanical engineering undergraduate student Kyle O'Keefe, and undergraduate student in electrical and computer engineering Jeffrey King. Gilger is now a researcher at the University of California, Merced.
The research may help to determine how many blows it takes to cause impairment, which could lead to safety guidelines on limiting the number of hits a player receives per week.
"Any change in fMRI data is a concern, but we don't yet know what these changes mean, what they translate to, in terms of cognitive impairment," Breedlove said.
A common assumption in sports medicine is that certain people are innately more susceptible to head injury. However, the new findings suggest the number of hits received during the course of a season is the most important factor, Talavage said.
The researchers have expanded the study to include an additional high school football team and girls' soccer.
The research findings represent a dilemma because they suggest athletes may suffer a form of injury that is difficult to diagnose.
"This might be especially important in young people because the brain is still developing, so even though subtle unexpressed damage doesn't manifest as a concussion it could affect the brain later in life," Gilger said.
Changes were seen in regions of the brain that have been associated with chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a progressive degenerative disease found in people who suffer numerous concussions and other forms of head injury.
"This is still circumstantial evidence, but it suggests that whether you are concussed or not your brain is changing as a result of all these hits, and the regions most affected are the ones that exhibit CTE," Nauman said.
Players in the study received from 200 to nearly 1,900 hits to the head in a single season, with two players exceeding 1,800 hits. Helmet-sensor data indicated impact forces to the head ranged from 20 Gs to more than 100 Gs.
"The worst hit we've seen was almost 300 Gs," Nauman said.
A soccer player "heading" a ball experiences an impact of about 20 Gs.
Findings could aid efforts to develop more sensitive and accurate methods to detect cognitive impairment and concussions; more accurately characterize and model cognitive deficits that result from head impacts; determine the cellular basis for cognitive deficits after a single impact or repeated impacts; and develop new interventions to reduce the risk and effects of head impacts.
"Now that we know there is definitely a buildup of damage before the concussion occurs, ultimately, there is hope that we can do more to prevent concussions," Nauman said.
The work is ongoing and supported with grants from the Indiana State Department of Health's Spinal Cord and Brain Injury Research Fund, General Electric Healthcare, the Indiana Clinical and Translational Sciences Institute, and through the National Science Foundation and National Defense Science and Engineering Graduate Fellowships.
Researchers also will follow the case studies of players who take the most hits to see if there is evidence of permanent changes in brain structure using MRI scans.
The research group, called the Purdue Neurotrauma Group (PNG), also is studying ways to reduce traumatic brain injury in soldiers who suffer concussions caused by shock waves from explosions.
Concussion is growing public health issue in the United States, and chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is the chief long-term concern linked to repeated concussions. Recently, attention has shifted toward subconcussive blows and the role they may play in the development of CTE. We assembled a cohort of high school football players for two seasons of observation. Accelerations sensors were placed in the helmets, and all contact activity was monitored. Pre-season computer-based neuropsychological tests and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) tests were also obtained in order to assess cognitive and physiological health. In-season follow-up scans were then obtained both from individuals who had sustained a clinically diagnosed concussion and those who had not. These changes were then related through stepwise regression to history of blows recorded throughout the football season up to the date of the scan. In addition to those subjects who had sustained a concussion, a substantial portion of our cohort who did not sustain concussions showed significant neurophysiological changes. Stepwise regression indicated distinct relationships between the biomechanical histories of subjects and the ensuing neurophysiological change, suggesting that distinct injury processes are at play. Our findings reinforce the hypothesis that the effects of repetitive blows to the head are cumulative and that repeated exposure to subconcussive blows is connected to pathologically altered neurophysiology.

Merck (MRK) Stock Gains in Pre-Market Trading on Earnings Beat, Raised Guidance
Merck (MRK) stock is higher in pre-market trading on Tuesday,on 2015 third quarter earnings that were ahead of analysts' estimates and a higher full-year earnings forecast.
Rachel Graf
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Merck (MRK) - Get Free Report stock is advancing by 2.02% to $53.96 in pre-market trading on Tuesday, after the company reported its 2015 third quarter financial results and raised its full-year earnings guidance amid strong sales in diabetes and oncology.
The drug maker reported earnings of 96 cents per share, up from 90 cents per share for the year ago period.
Revenue declined by 4.6% year over year, to $10.07 billion from $10.56 billion for the 2014 third quarter.
Analysts were expecting the company to earn 91 cents per share on revenue of $10.08 billion.
Merck raised its 2015 full-year earnings guidance to a range between $3.55 per share and $3.60 per share, up from the prior range between $3.45 per share and $3.55 per share. Analysts had forecast for $3.51 per share, according to Reuters.
"Our solid results this quarter demonstrate that our focused strategy, which aims to drive future growth, as well as value for patients, society and shareholders, is working," CEO Kenneth C. Frazier said in a statement. "The evolving market, economic and political dynamics of global health care increasingly underscore that the ability to provide high-value innovation is what will distinguish successful companies going forward."
Separately, TheStreet Ratings team rates MERCK & CO as a Buy with a ratings score of B-. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation:
We rate MERCK & CO (MRK) a BUY. This is driven by several positive factors, which we believe should have a greater impact than any weaknesses, and should give investors a better performance opportunity than most stocks we cover. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its notable return on equity, reasonable valuation levels, good cash flow from operations, expanding profit margins and largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures. We feel its strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had sub par growth in net income.

Description: This study examined the qualitative impact of a unique theatrical partnership, The Odyssey Project, between a university and a probation camp facility for boys. Seven youths who committed criminal offenses and seven university students were brought together as peers and mentored daily by university faculty for six weeks. They participated in structured theatrical activities that culminated in a public performance of an adaptation of the Homeric epic poem The Odyssey. Observations, interviews, and questionnaires investigated participants' experiences and interpretations of class activities including why they joined, how they interpreted their experiences, and what impact the program had on them. Results suggest that a psychologically safe space was created by clear expectations and boundaries, positive regard shown to participants, and distress-reducing mindfulness activities, which allowed the participants to feel comfortable enough to share and be vulnerable. Program processes and outcomes are discussed along with limitations and future directions.

When my side of the family gets together, (as Ron noticed in the comments) it's all about food. Aspen is an amazing place for foodies—and Carla of course researched all the great restaurants they want to try—so we are eating some amazing meals and living a Jackie Mason routine—sitting in a restaurant moaning about how full we are from lunch, discussing where we're going to eat dinner.
The thing is, although I can match Carla and Paul bite for bite, there's part of the picture you're not seeing.
Jill and Jim Pomeroy are the founders of Cloud Nine and when I heard their story, it immediately reminded me of a free concert we heard last night in Aspen –by a fantastic group called Sybarite 5, who play everything from Brahms to the Beatles.
Although she creates all the recipes, Jill Pomeroy can't even taste them—she can't eat chocolate. She is truly an artist—the Beethoven of Brownies.
There's something amazing about creating chocolate brownies when you can't eat chocolate….lemme see, how does this apply to me???

Alternative Titles: ICSH, LH, interstitial-cell stimulating hormone
Luteinizing hormone (LH), also called interstitial-cell stimulating hormone (ICSH), one of two gonadotropic hormones (i.e., hormones concerned with the regulation of the gonads, or sex glands) that is produced by the pituitary gland. LH is a glycoprotein and operates in conjunction with follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). Following the release of the egg (ovulation) in the female, LH promotes the transformation of the graafian follicle (a small egg-containing vesicle in the ovary) into the corpus luteum, an endocrine gland that secretes progesterone. In the male, LH stimulates the development of the interstitial cells of the testes, which secrete testosterone, a male sex hormone. The production of LH is cyclical in nature (especially in the female). See also follicle-stimulating hormone; menstruation.

Point Sur Lighstation Walking Tour Part I
For an interactive map from GPSmyCity for this blog post please visit this site
Gray whales have the longest known migration of any mammal, traveling around 10,000 miles round trip between the Arctic and Mexico every year. During their migration, the entire Gray whale population migrates within three miles of the Monterey coastline every winter and spring, as they pass through the Monterey Submarine Canyon to feed. January is peak season for observing their migration south. And Point Sur is a perfect on land observation post.
Our tour starts at the multi-padlocked gate 18.6 miles south of Rio Road on Highway 1. This is where we wait for docent tour guides from the Point Sur Lightstation to met us.
Docents direct our caravan to follow the road which cuts through an area covered with low sand dunes, European Beach Grass, and
cattle from El Sur Ranch who appear to be our greeters. No car gets passed #158 without his okey dokey.
The El Sur Ranch was originally Rancho El Sur an 8,949 acre Mexican land grant deeded by Governor José Figueroa to Juan Alvarado in 1834. Juan Alvarado went on to become Governor of Alta California.
Since 1955 the now 7,000 acre ranch is owned, run, and preserved by the Cortlandt Hill family. The Hill family granted an easement to the State Parks System across their ranch from Highway 1 to the lightstation. It is this easement that makes it possible for our cars to reach the base of Point Sur headlands.
Access to Point Sur is by guided tour only, reservations are NOT accepted. The number of people is limited for safety reasons and to preserve the sense of isolation. Arrive early to this California Registered Historical Landmark #951, it is worth it.
After our cars are safely backed into the hill we meet our guide, docent John O'Neil. He prepares us for our hike, 1 mile round trip, with a 360 foot elevation gain, one spiral staircase and one steep stairway with two parts, the longer having 61 steps.
Point Sur Lightstation sits on top of a large rock that has been a mariner's landmark since the days of the Spanish explorers. The rock was first sighted by Juan Cabrillo in 1542 and Viscaino described it as "a point that appears as an island," in 1602.
After California became a state in 1850, a survey of the coast was ordered and taken by the Navy. The large rock mariner's landmark became "Point Sur" taking its name from the land surrounding it, El Sur Rancho.
In 1866 President Andrew Johnson reserved this site for a lighthouse. But funds were needed for construction. One of the factors in attaining the funds would be the wreck of the Ventura in 1875. Between 1886 and 1887, Congress would appoint $100,000 for construction of a much needed lighthouse.
But before anything could be built, the top of the rock (about 80 feet) had to be blasted off to level space for construction. The buildings were finished in 1889 and the light lit on August 1, 1889. Point Sur, known as a lightstation rather than a lighthouse because there are multiple buildings on the site, has been in continuous operation ever since.
HOIST RAILWAY SYSTEM
One of the initial construction problems was how to get materials up the 360 foot grade without a road. The decision, build a hoist railway from the beach, up the southeast face of the rock, and across the top of the rock between what is now the head keepers quarters and the assistant keepers quarters. The picture above shows the area today. The picture below shows the area around 1889 after the railway was built.
Next to the railway a set of 396 stairs was constructed. Those people who worked or lived on the lightstation used these stairs daily.
In fact everything made the trip to the top of the rock via the railway or the stairs. That included all the stone used to build the structures on Point Sur and the equipment necessary to run the lighthouse.
The stone, originally quarried in the valley of the Little Sur River, was brought to the base of the railway by wagon. Most of the equipment came from San Francisco by ship, making difficult beach landings before offloading their cargo. The Fresnel lens came from Paris by ship, making its journey without breaking even one of its 568 glass prisms.
The beach and the buildings in the pictures above and below, part of the Point Sur State Historic Park, have an interesting history.
The buildings seen in the distance in the picture above are the former Point Sur Naval Facility. Established in 1957, the Point Sur Naval Facility used the gray building to the right without windows to passively listen for Soviet Submarines. Wires from this building stretched 25 miles out to sea to 30 hydrophones. The Navy became very accomplished in identifying specific submarines off the coast, until senior warrant officer turned spy John A. Walker spilled the beans on a huge number of Navy secrets, including the Point Sur Naval Facility.
In 1993 the Naval Postgraduate School established the Ocean Acoustic Observatory at the former Naval Facility for the purpose of undersea research.
Now back to the railway. By 1900, many of the components of the system needed to be replaced. The expense of these parts led to the abandonment of the hoist railway system. It was time for a road.
Men used pick, shovel and dynamite to clear space in the near vertical sides of Franciscan Greenstone to build the road we walk on today.
The road remained dirt (see picture above) until 1984 when it was finally paved. With the road, supplies could be shuttled from the beach by horse and buggy up to the top of Point Sur.
DOCK SYSTEM
But beach landings were still a challenge for supply ships. So engineers began looking for a place on the side of the rock below the road to build a platform. On this platform they would build a docking system that could lift supplies directly from the water.
Around 1915 once again the rock
was blasted and a ledge
cut to support a platform.
The picture below shows the platform, along with a new railway that would be used to transport the supplies from the landing to the road. Supply ships would no longer have to navigate beach landings.
Now ships off-loaded their supplies (packed in barrels that would float, in case they fell into the water) into small rowboats. The boats pulled near the platform and attached the barrels to a long arm which swung out over the sea. The barrels would be lifted to the platform, loaded on the tram car, and shuttled to the road. Needless to say, getting supplies to Point Sur was an arduous task.
SPOUT!
As our group continues up the road, someone calls out "Spout!" The Gray whales have begun to show themselves. "Typically," our guide explained, "when Gray whales come up for air, they blow out water and get in fresh air. They do this three to five times in a pattern for about a minute then you will see the fluke before they begin their dive." More spouts would be spotted, and one fluke, as we made the accent to the lightstation.
Our next stop was to view a memorial plaque for the USS Macon which crashed in the waters off Point Sur in 1935.
This brought history home for me. Living in the Palo Alto/Mountain View for 51 years Moffett Field was literally in my backyard. I was fascinated to learn that the Hanger One I passed on a regular basis was built for the USS Macon.
In 1935, during a cross country trip, the USS Macon damaged all four of its tailfins. Two were repaired before the ship returned safely to Mountain View.
On February 12 while returning to Mountain View from fleet maneuvers, (the other two tailfins had yet to be repaired) the Macon ran into a storm off Point Sur. Wind shear would cause structural failure to the unrepaired tailfins.
Knowing they would have to ditch in the ocean, the Macon rose to an altitude where it could release helium to allow the craft to descend gently into the sea. The Macon sank off Point Sur. On June 24, 1990, the wreckage of the USS Macon was located off Point Sur by the U.S. Navy submersible Sea Cliff.
Our guide John informs us that besides the USS Macon there have been a number of shipwrecks off Point Sur, enough to earn this point the title "Graveyard of the Pacific," and that "once we turn the next corner we will have left civilization behind, just whales, the bark of sea lions and sometimes a sighting of a porpoise or killer whale."
LIGHTSTATION
In the distance (above) we finally spot the lighthouse (far left), carpenter/blacksmith shop (second from right) and barn. The picture below shows same the location c. 1929 with the original narrow roads.
We continue our hike to the lighthouse and pass below the water tower, assistant keepers quarters, and head keepers quarters.
At the fork our hike will continue along the lower road which has been blocked to cars and trucks.
It is clear that there is not much flora on Point Sur, yet John is quick to point out Point Sur's forest, one lone Monterey Cypress. "It is a very harsh environment for plants. When you get up to the top you will notice most of the plants are very low to the ground, that is because the wind here averages 25 miles an hour 24 hours every day. So on a day like today when we have almost no wind and perfect viability, we are going to have a day with 60 mile an hour winds to balance it out. And that will keep the plants down. It is what we call wind pruning."
OIL HOUSE
Next we pass the oil house built around 1907. Prior to that time the kerosene was stored in the lighthouse. Once the oil house was built, the kerosene was piped into the oil house through a pipe in the roof from a landing almost 1,000 feet away.
The light keeper would gather the kerosene in a brass pitcher and take it up to the lighthouse to light the station.
Just a few hundred yards and we will be at the lighthouse. The aerial photograph* below shows clearly the path for our hike. On our accent we took the lower road on the far west side of Point Sur. After viewing the light house we will climb two sets of steep stairways then further ascend about 1/4 mile to the blacksmith/carpenters.

Pear fruit (Bartlett var.) procured from Ooty, Tamil Nadu was analysed for moisture, total soluble solids, pH, acidity, reducing sugar and pectin. The fruit was found to be less acidic and low pectin type, with medium sweetness. Pears are reported to contain 10 to 15% sugar, including fructose, sorbitol, glucose and sucrose. The Bartlett var. of Pear was analyzed for total, free and bound phenolics by HPLC technique, using the standard phenolics procured from Sigma Chem. Co. USA. Peel and the pulp fractions were separately subjected to the analysis of phenolics.In fresh fruit Peel and pulp showed marked differences in the phenolic and flavonoid contents. Though gallic acid was predominant in the peel and pulp its content in pulp was relatively higher. Caffeic acid, catechin, coumaric, and kampferol were found in trace(s) or totally absent. Characteristically, the pulp predominated in chlorogenic acid. Whereas, the peel had striking feature of dominated contents of quercetin, kampferol,coumaric acid, catechin and caffeic acid. These differential contents of the phenolic /flavanoids between the peel and the pulp eventually define their differential capacities of "Antioxidant activities".In ripe fruit Pulp had very high content of gallic acid and gentisic acid compared to peel. Results show that pear is characterized by the peel, rich in several phenolics including epicatechin and flavonols, with prominent degree of browning, ascribed to enzymatic oxidation of the phenolics. Accordingly, the consumption of unpeeled pears is recommended to maximize the dietary intake of antioxidant compounds. There are innate differences in the constitutional phenolics of the peel and pulp in unripe and ripe fruit. Processing the fruit into candy, juice and powder has resulted in differences in the integral phenolics, dependent on the factor of dilution of the parental fruit material and process conditions. The later however requires reiteration by more number of experiments. Antioxidant activity studied in terms of IC-50 and TRP values was high with the peel, followed by powder and less in other processed forms like juice and candy, including the fruit pulp.

Below is an essay on "Prg211 Wk5" from Anti Essays, your source for research papers, essays, and term paper examples.
In order to maintain a healthy body, a lifestyle that ensures a daily balanced caloric count must be maintained. This paper presents a pseudocode solution for a calorie management program. Taking as input the values of calories consumed and calories burnt in a day, the program tells the user whether the calorie count is balanced for the day or not. Furthermore, the program also tells the user whether an imbalance has contributed in gaining or losing of any weight.
The program solution comprises of four modules; Option Menu, Get Input, Find Calorie Info and Generate Output. The paper highlights the details of each module which includes the input to the module, the underlying process logic and the output generated. In order to test the logic of the proposed pseudocode design, the algorithm has been developed and tested in Visual Logic.
In order to maintain a healthy body, a balance needs to be maintained between the calories consumed and those burned. On consuming 3,500 calories more than what a person burns, weight equivalent to 1 pound is gained. Conversely, by burning 3,500 calories higher than what is consumed, a person loses 1 pound of weight (BodyMedia, 2012).
In this assignment it is required to develop the pseudocode of a software program which, on account of the daily food intake and activities performed, determines whether a person is maintaining a balance between his daily calorie consumption and burning. Based on the caloric values entered it also provides an estimate of the weight gained or lost on that particular day.

The project would be built on a mountain considered sacred by Navajos and Pueblos in New Mexico.
Mounds of radioactive waste dot the eastern portion of the Navajo Nation in the US state of New Mexico. The earthen monoliths contain contaminated material from the more than 250 abandoned uranium mines that once provided the raw materials for the US nuclear complex.
As the Cold War ended, so did the demand for uranium. Yet growing international investment in nuclear energy has led to the prospect of renewed uranium mining in New Mexico, including the controversial new Roca Honda mine located on Mount Taylor, an area considered sacred by the Navajo and Pueblo peoples of the southwestern United States.
"If developed, Roca Honda will be a huge underground mine with tremendous impacts," said environmental attorney Eric Jantz. "This mine could destroy people's water, land, their places of worship - all for the purposes of funnelling profits to a Canadian company that is in turn selling it to Korea."
The Roca Honda project, operated by Energy Fuels, is one of four proposed New Mexico uranium mines in the permitting stage, said Jon J Indall, an attorney representing the four mining companies ready to begin operations in the coming years. "The market is a bit sluggish now, but these operations are poised to catch the next upswing."
The prospect of renewed uranium development has triggered a contentious debate in New Mexico, a state still reeling from the radioactive contamination caused by uranium mining and the economic decline that followed the exit of the industry from the country's third-poorest state.
"These four projects have the potential to provide 1,000 jobs and millions of dollars in tax revenue," Indall told Al Jazeera. "This, all for a state whose economy is not exactly booming."
But many from the Navajo Nation vehemently oppose the return of an industry that left hundreds of abandoned and un-reclaimed mines, mill sites and waste piles on indigenous lands. These continue to contaminate water, soil, livestock and housing, causing heath problems for an impoverished and historically marginalised native community.
Larry King, a former miner and member of the Eastern Navajo Dine Against Uranium Mining (ENDAUM), said: "People still talk about Three Mile Island and Chernobyl. Church Rock, where I am from, had the largest radioactive accident in US history, and 19 abandoned mines that remain today, [are] poisoning our community. But no one talks about this, they talk about new mining instead."
Oh God yes, this economy needs [uranium mining] bad! Things have changed... I think a lack of education has people still thinking uranium mining is dangerous.
Beginning in the 1950s, thousands of Native Americans like King found work in New Mexico's uranium mines. They were often poorly paid, unprotected and uninformed about the dangers of uranium dust inhalation and chronic radiation exposure.
Nadine Padilla, the director of the MASE coalition, an organisation formed in 2008 by communities affected by mining, spoke to Al Jazeera about what she said were the health effects caused by the mining. "Every day I see people with kidney disease, respiratory problems, and many women fighting various forms of cancer. People still live in houses made with radioactive material from the mills… Baca, where my family is from, has one of the most polluted groundwater systems in the state."
But others from the region welcome the return of the industry. When asked about his thoughts on new uranium mining projects, Jack Farley, who has worked as a miner for 28 years, exclaimed, "Oh God yes, this economy needs it bad! Things have changed. When I worked there were no laws. I worked 500-1,000 working levels of radiation - that's 999 times what is allowed now. But I think a lack of education has people still thinking uranium mining is dangerous."
The harmful effects of exposure to radon, a radioactive gas often found in uranium mines, are well-known. Yet an absence of health studies or environmental monitoring have led to a poor understanding of the effects of the uranium legacy on the Navajo Nation.
"Part of the reason is that these are marginalised communities, low income, communities of colour, indigenous communities," said Jantz. "They don't have the political power or the resources it takes to get the federal government or state government to do the basic science behind the health costs of uranium mining."
The Church Rock Uranium Monitoring Project (CRUMP) began in 2003 to assess the effects of the 1979 tailings dam failure, which released 1,100 tons of radioactive waste into the Puerco River, and other abandoned mines. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, at the infamous Church Rock mine, "residents graze sheep, cattle and horses, and collect herbs around the area. Due to the proximity of the residents to the mine site, this mine was identified as the highest priority for cleanup by US EPA and Navajo Nation EPA of over 500 abandoned uranium mines on the Navajo Nation."
King said, "Even before the '79 spill, contamination from untreated mine watering would flow through our community. After the dam break, it only continued. Kids used to play in the wash, in the mine waste - there were no fences, no signs. I used to graze our sheep where the mines were."
The CRUMP finding showed contamination of numerous wells and springs in the communities in and around Church Rock, as well as dangerous radon levels in homes made with contaminated materials - equivalent to a lifetime cancer risk of smoking one to two packs of cigarettes a day.
A more comprehensive health study, still under way, found that of the 1,300 people surveyed, "those people living closer to waste site were more likely to have hypertension, auto-immune disease, while people who had history of exposure during active mining had an additional likelihood of kidney disease", as principal investigator Johnnye Lewis told Al Jazeera.
[Marginalised communities] don't have the political power or the resources it takes to get the federal government or state government to do the basic science behind the health costs of uranium mining.
In response to the contamination, the Navajo Nation enacted a moratorium on uranium mining in 2005, as well as a ban on transporting uranium across reservation land.
Now, the prospect of new mining projects has created a rift within the country's largest Native American reservation, as certain chapters and officials have come out in support of new uranium projects.
A new bill sponsored by Navajo Council Delegate Leonard Tsotsi has allowed Uranium Resources, Inc to construct a "demonstration project" that would extract uranium ore in the Church Rock chapter. The legislation, seemingly at odds with the uranium ban, has been endorsed by chapter president Johnny Henrie as well as a number of other prominent Navajo officials. Henrie was unavailable for comment for this article.
Some, including Navajo activist Leona Morgan, assume foul play. "These are old tactics from the past, divide-and-conquer. Today, companies target families who have rights to lease their land, they target politicians and offer them something. Right now, everyone is wondering what Leonard Tsotsi and these pro-uranium families are getting."
King, who lives just across the road from the proposed mine, agreed with Morgan's assessment. "These men are supposed to protect the community. But you show them a little green, and that changes."
In the end, the prospect of new uranium mining will likely have less to do with the internal controversy than with global economic factors related to the growth of the nuclear energy industry.
According to a January 3 report by the World Nuclear Association, there are 435 operable reactors in the world right now, 71 reactors under construction, 172 planned, and another 312 have been proposed.
As Curtis Moore, the director of investor and public relations at Energy Fuels, told Al Jazeera, "There is clearly significant growth in the industry. We're going to have to get the uranium from somewhere. There is certainly a probability some will come from New Mexico."
The controversy over renewed mining is far from over, but Curtis believes it comes down to economy. "Uranium mining has gotten a bad rap in the past. But the bottom line is that these projects create jobs, they create tax revenues, they provide clean nuclear energy for the world."
But King remains sceptical. "Clean has not been my experience."

Q: matlab: detecting better branchpoints from skeleton I have two skeleton images over which I extracted the branchpoints. Unfortunately, the branchpoints do not seem to be correct. Does anyone has a suggestion on how to extract valid branchpoints (i.e. "y"-like shape points)?
reg1 = imread('region1.tif');
[i,j] = ind2sub(size(reg1), find(bwmorph(reg1,'branchpoint') == 1));
h=figure; imshow(reg1); hold on; plot(j,i,'rx');print(h,'reg1overlay','-dtiff');

In the first example below there should be only one branchpoint:

reg2 = imread('region2.tif');
[i,j] = ind2sub(size(reg2), find(bwmorph(reg2,'branchpoint') == 1));
h=figure; imshow(reg2); hold on; plot(j,i,'rx');print(h,'reg2overlay','-dtiff');

In the second example below there should be only no branchpoints:

A: Try:
branchskel = bwmorph(BW,'skel',Inf); %BW is your binarized image
branchskel = bwmorph(branchskel,'thin'); %this should remove those pixel piles that are giving you problems
B = bwmorph(branchskel, 'branchpoints');
[yb,xb] = find(B);

A how-to guide for COVID-19 testing at Penn
With the launch of Penn Cares, Penn Today provides additional details on the new testing program, how eligible members of the Penn community can enroll, and how the testing procedure works.
Inside the tent at high rise field, one of eight sites available across campus for screening testing this semester.
Last month, a new COVID-19 saliva-based testing strategy for the Penn community was launched. Developed through a partnership between Penn Medicine, Wellness at Penn, and the Center for Public Health Initiatives (CPHI), the testing infrastructure established as part of the "Project Quaker" program is now ready to conduct 40,000 saliva-based COVID-19 screening tests each week and is a key component of safely repopulating campus during the spring semester.
Here, Penn Today provides additional details on this program, how eligible members of the Penn community can enroll, and how the testing procedure works.
What is Penn Cares?
Penn Cares is Penn's COVID-19-response program that includes all measures to help safeguard students, faculty, postdocs, and staff, as well as the broader Philadelphia community from spreading the virus. Included within the program are strict public health guidance instituted across the University, a robust screening testing program, and wellness resources for overall mental and physical health. Additionally, all students, faculty, staff, and postdocs are required to enroll and participate in PennOpen Pass, a daily symptom tracker and exposure reporting system.
A critical component of Penn Cares includes recurring saliva-based screening testing for COVID-19 to monitor transmission rates across campus. This includes twice-weekly tests on pre-assigned day pairs for undergraduate students living on or off campus and twice-weekly testing on chosen two-day pairs for graduate students, postdocs, faculty, and staff who live on campus. Additionally, weekly tests are required for graduate students, faculty, postdocs, and staff who are on campus for four or more hours each week.
The infrastructure developed through Project Quaker, from the IT platform that tracks samples to PPE and collection tubes, has enabled the University to increase their on-campus testing capacity by more than 400%.
Anyone who has had a positive COVID-19 test in the past 90 days is exempt from screening testing until notified, and clinical students whose rotations take them away from campus are also exempt but may participate in the screening program when they return to campus. Members of the campus community who have been vaccinated against COVID-19 and who meet testing criteria should enroll in the testing program because it is not yet known whether the vaccine prevents someone from spreading the virus to others.
Those who are symptomatic or have had close contact with a positive COVID-19 case should complete their required daily PennOpen Pass and will then receive a red PennOpen Pass with information about appropriate next steps.
How do eligible individuals enroll in the Penn Cares screening testing program?
Members of the Penn community who meet the testing criteria enroll in the program simply by scheduling their first test at covidscheduling.upenn.edu. Students must schedule their first screening test three and seven days after their gateway test. Eligible faculty, postdocs, and staff must schedule their first screening test for the first week they are on campus.
Where and when can eligible individuals get tested?
Eligible members of the Penn community will be able to schedule their weekly or biweekly tests at one of eight sites across campus, including Houston Hall, and test results will be available "well within" 48 hours.
Testing is by appointment only, and walk-ins will not be accepted. Appointments are available in 15-minute intervals on a first-come, first-served basis and can be scheduled several weeks in advance. For additional information on how to schedule an appointment, consult the tip sheet.
Starting on Jan. 11, all eight testing sites (plus one site dedicated to red PennOpen Pass symptomatic and exposure testing) will be operational. For detailed information on testing sites, including accessibility, hours, and entry and exit points, visit the COVID-19 testing location website.
Students living on campus must also participate in gateway testing by going directly to one of two testing sites after depositing their belongings. High Rise Field and the Annenberg Center will be accepting walk-in appointments for this purpose. Off-campus students should complete their gateway test no later than Jan. 18 and begin their screening testing thereafter.
What is the testing process like?
Anyone being tested is asked to not eat, drink, brush teeth, use mouthwash, chew gum, vape, or use tobacco products for at least 30 minutes before the test to prevent sample contamination. Participants should bring only their PennCard and their completed PennOpen Pass and wear a mask to their appointment.
The sample collection process should take less than 15 minutes, and test results will be available in 24-48 hours on the COVID Results website. Anyone who receives a positive test result will receive a red PennOpen Pass as well as instructions for next steps.
Data collected through this screening program, including the number of new positive cases and the test positivity rate, will be updated weekly on Penn's COVID-19 dashboard.
What else is being done to keep the campus safe?
As part of Penn's comprehensive public health program, institutional actions are in place to complement individual behaviors, such as wearing a mask, staying physically distanced, and washing hands. This includes extra cleaning and ventilation checks in campus buildings, screening and testing programs, contact tracing, isolation, and quarantine, as well as a student Campus Compact and Principles of Responsible Conduct for faculty and staff. Penn Care's goal is to encourage a collaborative comprehensive approach aimed at bringing the community together in the shared goal of keeping the campus and Philadelphia community healthy.
Colin Wells, Assistant Director for Facilities & Operations for Recreation, ensures that his sample contains the required amount of saliva for testing.

Those who have taken my course know that 100-200 points move DO NOT bother us. Strangely this is a budget week and Nifty is moving in a narrow range. 7100 on the lower band, and 7300 on the upper band.
But when things are calm and cool, there is a storm waiting in the hide-out. This will break this week for sure either on the Railway budget day or before.
Is it the right time to do the directional strategy?
Lots of people who have done my course called me and asked if this is the correct time to do Directional Strategy?
Yes it is. Nifty movement can come any day so try it. Directional strategy should be set BEFORE the move comes. If move comes in a day or two, you make money and end the game.
If you are setting up the directional strategy today, Monday is the Final day of results. You either make a profit before the budget or on the budget day. Be happy with a 30-50 points profit though and exit.
Those who are more comfortable with Bank Nifty can try the directional strategy there. Bank Nifty is known to move pretty fast and the profits may come earlier.
It is suicidal to trade either Options or Futures this week without the hedge. Unfortunately most traders right now are on an non-hedged naked Futures trade. I just hope I am proved wrong – but these people are going to lose a lot of money in days to come. If they make a profit, it is going to be limited though.
Tell me – Where Is The Money?
If you trade with the formula "Limited Profits and Unlimited Losses." – where is the money?
And this you keep doing for your life. You only compound your losses and not your profits.
With stock market losses you are only reducing your Salary every month. A 1 Lakh loss in a year means your actual salary is 8000 less per month than what you actually get. But you pay taxes on what you get on paper, right? That's double loss if you are not reporting your losses while filing your taxes. I am sure many do not. Strange! Please report your losses and at least get a tax refund.
You will be 100 and you will still "hope" of the that day when you will make a lot of money trading. Trading on hope is the most foolish thing to do in a business. Aggressive traders without a plan, trade on hope. When they lose they bring more money and again "trade on hope". This goes on for life.
I hate any strategy that cannot be compounded – however good it is. What is point in making 5000 per month if you fear putting more capital into the strategy to trade?
With my course the non-directional strategies can be compounded. It means you can re-invest the profits in the strategies back again and again.
But the most important part about my strategies is trading with a peace of mind. Nothing for me is better than making money with a peace of mind. On top of that you make small profits almost every month. What more do you want? To become the richest man walking on Earth by trading?
Email me to know more about the course. If you do not know anything about Options and Futures please tell me, I will try to help you for free.
thanks a lot to given the detail about trading, during the budget days.

Q: Creating two separate "lists of lists" out of "list" & "list of lists" I haven't found a similar question with a solution here, so I'll ask your help.
There are 2 lists, one of which is list of lists:
categories = ['APPLE', 'ORANGE', 'BANANA']
test_results = [['17.0', '12.0'], ['21.0', '15.0'], ['7.0', '6.0']]

As a final result I would like to split it by 2 separate lists of lists:
[['APPLE','17.0']['ORANGE','21.0']['BANANA','7.0']]
[['APPLE','12.0']['ORANGE','15.0']['BANANA','6.0']]

I tried to create loops but I have nothing to share.
Any ideas are appreciated.

A: This is a simple answer. Hope its what you were looking for.
categories = ['APPLE', 'ORANGE', 'BANANA']
test_results = [['17.0', '12.0'], ['21.0', '15.0'], ['7.0', '6.0']]

# Declare 2 lists
list1 = []
list2 = []

for category, results in zip(categories, test_results):
    # Append to each list
    list1.append([category, results[0]])
    list2.append([category, results[1]])

# Print lists
print(list1)
print(list2)

A: You can do it simply using list traversal and choosing element at index from first list and values from second list:
l1 = []
l2 = []
for i, values in enumerate(test_results):
    l1.append([categories[i], values[0]])
    l2.append([categories[i], values[1]])

print(l1)
print(l2)

# Output
# [['APPLE', '17.0'], ['ORANGE', '21.0'], ['BANANA', '7.0']]
# [['APPLE', '12.0'], ['ORANGE', '15.0'], ['BANANA', '6.0']]

A: You can use some Python built-in functions.
for i in range(len(test_results[0])):
    print(list(map(list, zip(categories, map(lambda x: x[i], test_results)))))

A: list comprehension:
categories = ['APPLE', 'ORANGE', 'BANANA']
test_results = [['17.0', '12.0'], ['21.0', '15.0'], ['7.0', '6.0']]

total_list = [[[category, num] for category, num in zip(categories, i)] for i in zip(*test_results)]
l1, l2 = total_list # due to there are only two sub-list in total list.
print(l1, l2, total_list, sep="\n")

A: Another way of doing this:
from itertools import chain
test_results = list(chain.from_iterable(test_results))
l1, l2 = list(map(list,zip(categories, test_results[::2]))), list(map(list,zip(categories, test_results[1::2])))

output:
[['APPLE', '17.0'], ['ORANGE', '21.0'], ['BANANA', '7.0']]
[['APPLE', '12.0'], ['ORANGE', '15.0'], ['BANANA', '6.0']]

Another more generalizable version:
from itertools import chain, repeat
test_results = list(chain.from_iterable(test_results))
categories = list(chain.from_iterable(repeat(x,2) for x in categories))
l = list(map(list,zip(categories, test_results)))
l1, l2 = l[::2], l[1::2]

A: categories = ['APPLE', 'ORANGE', 'BANANA']
test_results = [['17.0', '12.0'], ['21.0', '15.0'], ['7.0', '6.0']]
l = []
d=0
for i in range(len(categories)):
    k = len(test_results[0])
    for j in range(len(categories)):
        l.append([categories[j],test_results[j][d]])
    print(l)
    l=[]
    d+=1
    if d==k:
        break


Marble Christmas! Magnolias and Sunlight: Marble Christmas!
Do you have a fashionista on your shopping list? That person who's always looking for something "Instagram worthy" or who spends hours whitening the backgrounds of their images in FaceTune. The person on your list that although we are half way through the month you have no idea what to get them because you're afraid your taste won't meet their very high, social media conscience expectations. I have one word for you: Marble.
Marble is not a new trend, but it's one that continues to grow year after year. So whether you need a hostess gift or something to wrap and put under the tree one of these gifts are sure to please. The best part is that marble can really work seamlessly into anyone's decor. My house is very modern with a ton of midcentury finishes and this tray sits on our bar cabinet beautifully. On the flipside, my parent's house is more traditional with modern ranch style thrown in and I can easily see this candle fitting in beautifully on a side table in the living room.
Of course, some people may find getting an agenda for the new year a little boring, but babes I'm already shopping for mine! It would be a dream to wake up on Christmas morning to find a gorgeous planner for the next year. A perfectly scheduled week is the gift that keeps on giving!
And I have to mention this watch because I am obsessed with it! I have a very similar watch, though, so it's not something I will be adding to my collection, but I really hope that some of you do! It's too cute not to share, but I've also shared a similar one down below with a gray strap if the metal rose gold version isn't your thing.
Check back the next few days for a few more print themed gift guides!
