Resting-State fMRI Data Analysis Toolkit (REST) is a convenient toolkit to calculate Functional Connectivity (FC), Regional Homogeneity (ReHo), Amplitude of Low-Frequency Fluctuation (ALFF), Fractional ALFF (fALFF), Gragner causality, degree centrality, voxel-mirrored homotopic connectivity (VMHC) and perform statistical analysis. You also can use REST to view your data, perform Monte Carlo simulation similar to AlphaSim in AFNI, perform Gaussian random field theory multiple comparison correction like easythresh in FSL, calculate your images, regress out covariates, extract ROI time courses, reslice images, and sort DICOM files. Download a MULTIMEDIA COURSE would be helpful for knowing more about how to use this software. Add REST's directory to MATLAB's path and enter "REST" in the command window of MATLAB to enjoy it.
New features of REST V1.8 release 130615:
1. Fixed a bug in temporal correlation of two groups of images in Image Calculator. (Thanks for the report of ZHANG Han)
New features of REST V1.8 release 130303:
When calling Mingrui Xia's BrainNet Viewer (http://www.nitrc.org/projects/bnv/), the default surface template is changed to the smoothed version (BrainMesh_ICBM152_smoothed.nv). The previous default template (BrainMesh_ICBM152.nv) hide more information in the sulcus. If the users want to use BrainMesh_ICBM152.nv as default surface template, please uncomment Line 3740 in rest_sliceviewer: %SurfFileName=[BrainNetViewerPath,filesep,'Data',filesep,'SurfTemplate',filesep,'BrainMesh_ICBM152.nv'];
(After discussion with Mingrui Xia).
New features of REST V1.8 release 130214:
1. This release fixed some minor bugs, will not affect any data analysis.
2. Fixed a bug when using .nii(.gz) files in REST Image Calculator. (WANG Xin-Di)
3. Fixed a bug in using .nii(.gz) files in GCA analyses. (ZANG Zhen-Xiang)
4. Fixed the imresize_old bug of REST Slice Viewer with Matlab 2012b. (YAN Chao-Gan)
New features of REST V1.8 release 121225:
1. Support parallel computing! If you installed the MATLAB parallel computing toolbox, REST can distribute the subjects into different CPU cores. (WANG Xin-Di and YAN Chao-Gan).
2. Algorithm change: (1) Filtering: a separate function for matrix filtering was written. The low cutoff frequency index calculation changed from round (in REST V1.7) to "ceil". E.g., if low cut off corresponded to index 5.1, now it will start from 6 other than 5. This change also applies to ALFF and fALFF calculation. The filtered data changes slightly, about 0.0001. (2) The ALFF generated by the new version is sqrt(2/N) times of the original version. (new version used: 2*abs(fft(x))/N; original version used: sqrt(2*abs(fft(x))^2/N)). This change will not affect group analysis (as each individual scaled the same number), and will not affect mALFF and fALFF calculation as this factor will be normalized. (3) In the calculation of ReHo, the rank will keep as double and no longer converted into uint16, thus created slight difference with REST V1.7. (YAN Chao-Gan)
3. REST Slice Viewer support 4D file display and the maximum and minimum value could be set. (WANG Xin-Di)
4. Gaussian random field (GRF) theory multiple comparison correction (like easythresh in FSL) was supported. The smoothness could be evaluated for GRF correction or AlphaSim correction. (GUI by WANG Xin-Di, algorithm by YAN Chao-Gan)
5. Modules of voxel-mirrored homotopic connectivity (VMHC) (Zuo et al., 2010), Degree Centrality (Buckner et al., 2009) were added. (GUI by WANG Xin-Di, algorithm by YAN Chao-Gan)
6. REST GCA: could handle multiple ROIs (other than 2) in ROI-wise GCA now. Fixed a bug of discordance between the outputs and the description in REST-GCA readme in the pre-release of REST V1.8. (ZANG Zhen-Xiang)
7. rest_readfile.m and rest_writefile: The default format changed to .nii from .img. (WANG Xin-Di)
8. rest_to4d.m: now support one 4d file other than a directory, also support a cell of image filenames. (YAN Chao-Gan)

3. Surface Map View Mode work with BrainNet Viewer (by Mingrui Xia, http://www.nitrc.org/projects/bnv). REST Slice Viewer->Misc->Surface View with BrainNet Viewer. Command line version: rest_CallBrainNetViewer.m or named to BrainNet_MapVolume.m in BrainNet Viewer. (YAN Chao-Gan)
4. The GUI view in Linux or Mac OS has been optimized. (YAN Chao-Gan)
5. Fixed a bug while frequency start with 0 or up to sampleFreq/2 in alff.m. (YAN Chao-Gan)
6. The coordinates conversion from Talairach space to MNI space has changed from tal2mni.m to tal2icbm_spm.m. The function is developed and validated by Jack Lancaster (Lancaster et al., 2007). The same for icbm_spm2tal.m. (YAN Chao-Gan)
New features of REST V1.6 release 110505:
1. REST-GCA: provides a method that could transform the residual-based F into normally distributed Z score. For more details, please see http://www.rfmri.org/REST-GCA (ZANG Zhen-Xiang)
2. REST Image Calculator: Fixed an error when processing images of i10, i11.... (DONG Zhang-Ye)
3. REST Slice Viewer: Fixed a bug in dispalying "only -" and a bug in dispaying unerlay with 2x2x2 voxel size. (DONG Zhang-Ye)

New features of REST V1.5 release 101025:
1. Module of Regional Homogeneity based on Coherence (Cohe-ReHo) has been added by LIU Dong-Qiang and DONG Zhang-Ye. For methodology, please see: Liu D, Yan C, Ren J, Yao L, Kiviniemi VJ and Zang Y (2010) Using coherence to measure regional homogeneity of resting-state fMRI signal. Front. Syst. Neurosci. 4:24. doi: 10.3389/fnsys.2010.00024.
2. In previous release of REST, removing covariates effects will also regress out linear trend. Now regressing out linear trend has been canceled in this step. Users can still regress out polynomial effects by using rest_regressOutCovariates.m in command line. (YAN Chao-Gan)
3. For rest_sliceviewer, fixed a bug of in displaying with MATLAB 2010 and support mouse wheel operation. (DONG Zhang-Ye and YAN Chao-Gan)
4. Fixed a bug in converting .nii files into NIfTI pairs (.img/.hdr). (YAN Chao-Gan)

7. Now can also pick up .nii files in GUI of reslice image. (YAN Chao-Gan)
New features of REST V1.4 release 100426:
1. Fixed a reading and writing bug of compatibility with SPM8. (YAN Chao-Gan)
New features of REST V1.4 release 100420:
1. In previous release of REST, there is a simple procedure for removing linear trend in bandpass filter (as fourier_filter.c in AFNI) regardless if detrend calculation has been performed before bandpass filter or not. Now this simple procedure for removing linear trend in bandpass filter has been canceled. (YAN Chao-Gan)
2. In previous release of REST, bandpass filter (or ALFF and fALFF) determined the frequency band a little smaller than the real wanted frequency band. For example, if the wanted band is 0.01-0.08, TR=2S, Time points=240, then the real wanted frequency band is 0.0104-0.07917, but the previous release of REST will determined to 0.0083-0.07708. This bug has been fixed in REST V1.4 release 100420. These two modifications will make the results obtained by REST V1.4 slightly different from those obtained by previous version of REST, please be careful. (YAN Chao-Gan)
3. REST Statistical Analysis: Statistical analysis module has been added -- One-Sample T-Test, Two-Sample T-Test, Paired T-Test, ANCOVA, and Correlation Analysis. The operations are much easier than the operations in SPM. Especially, the covariate images can be added into statistical analysis (such as adding GM volume images as covariates in statistical analysis). (YAN Chao-Gan)
4. REST Slice Viewer: Fixed a bug in displaying overlay with different bounding box from those of underlay. For example, if you use ch2.nii as underlay, but the bounding box of overlay is not [-90 -126 -72;90 90 108] (e.g. if you use SPM's default: [-78 -112 -50; 78 76 85]), then REST Slice Viewer will display in a wrong way. Please re-display your image with REST V1.4 if your data with a bounding box different from [-90 -126 -72;90 90 108]. (DONG Zhang-Ye)
5. REST-GCA: The Beta 1.0 release 100201 of REST-GCA supports only the signed-path coefficient maps at a fixed order=1 condition. In order to implement a more general GCA program, we updated REST-GCA. The updated version integrates two algorithms: the coefficient-based GCA and the residual-based GCA. The updated version supports any order. Please refer to http://www.rfmri.org/REST-GCA for more details. (ZANG Zhen-Xiang)
New features of REST V1.3 release 100201:
1. Modules added:
(1) REST GCA 1.0 Beta: perform Granger Causality Analysis. Contributed by ZANG Zhen-Xiang, please see more details by clicking here.
(2) False Discovery Rate (FDR) Correction: under REST Slice Viewer / Misc Menu. (DONG Zhang-Ye)
2. Functions revised:

(5) Reslice Image: resclice images to a new vox size and new target space.
(6) NIfTI nii to NIfTI pairs: convert NIfTI .nii (3D or 4D) files to NIfTI pairs (.hdr/.img) since REST only can process 3D .hdr/.img files.
2. Functions revised:
(1) REST Slice Viewer: added P<->T, P<->F, P<->Z, P<->R conversion when threshoulding images; reading degree of freedom information from SPM statistical images; only+ and only-; save all clusters; cluster report functions; more AlphaSim thresholds (rmm=4, 5 and 6) for BrainMask_05_61x73x61.img; and make the Cluster Connectivity Criterion could be chosen among 6 voxels (surface), 18 voxels (edge) or 26 voxels (corner) according to rmm value.
(2) ReHo: It should be noted that the previous release of REST does not calculate the ReHo value of the voxels near the border of the brain mask, i.e., any voxel of the 27 voxels in the cluster is outside the brain mask. The new release (here the closed test version) will calculate the ReHo value of the voxels near the border of the brain mask, users should be cautious when discussing the results near the border.
(3) Functional Connectivity: Now it can process multiple subjects with different seed time courses (.txt) in batch mode. Give the seed time course configuration file as:
(4) REST: Checking and fixing the error of reading and writing NIfTI images when REST starts

Dear Dr Zhang
there is an issue with choosing bivariate coefficients for ROI mode in GCA - the error message suggests that 'comptn' is incorrect
also - can you explain how the multivariate works when there are only 2 ROIs
i am trying to make sense of the output file in multivariate ROI based GCA (for 2 ROIs)
what do the columns and rows specify?
thank you

Dear Chao-Gan
v: 1.8PRE
IN bivariate coefficients based GCA analyses, I am having problems with y2x maps.
I have now seeded two voxels and both must ave some significant y2x influences, but I repeatedly get unexpectedly no signals for y2x maps on one sample t tests. I find this puzzling as x2y maps initially from roi A suggested that roi B is influenced by roi A, but when I use roi B in the GCA, i dont find roi A showing even a weak signal.
Any advice will be useful,
YAN Chao-Gan
Thu, 10/25/2012 - 16:05
1. Fixed a major bug in REST VMHC GUI: an error in Fisher's r-to-z transformation in rest_VMHC_gui.m. Please recalculate the z scroes for VMHC if you used REST VMHC GUI to calculate VMHC. However, if you used DPARSF's automatic pipeline script, the results are correct. Thanks for Wei Liao's report.
2. Fixed a bug in ROI-wise FC in fc.m: cannot recognize .nii ROI files. Thanks for Richard Bethlehem's report.
3. Fixed a bug in rest_GRFCorrection_gui.m: cannot transfer the file name to rest_GRF_Threshold.m. Thanks for Li Wang's report.

The sweet growth of plant cells
An international collaboration team unravels the fundamental role that carbohydrates play in the root hairs of Arabidopsis thaliana and shows how cell growth is modulated in this species.
Glycomics is the functional study of the entire set of sugars found in a given species. To some, the term may sound like a distant cousin of more familiar names such as genomics and proteomics. Indeed, while genomics and proteomics of several species have been extensively investigated in the last years, glycomics is still an emerging field. Now, a paper published in Science magazine by an international collaboration headed by Dr. Jose Estevez (University of Buenos Aires, Argentina) and co-authored by researchers from Argentina, Brazil, Denmark, the United States and Australia examines in depth the fundamental role that carbohydrates play in the growth of root hairs of Arabidopsis thaliana, a small flowering plant widely used as a model system in plant cell biology and development.
"The structural plasticity of carbohydrates is greater than that of amino acids but our understanding of the implications of such plasticity and how it relates to a potential biological function is still limited. This paper contributes with new insights into the fundamental role that these very dynamic compounds have in Arabidopsis thaliana" says Dr. Hugo Verli, a scientist at the Biotechnology Center of Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS), Brazil, and co-author of the study.
The cell wall of plants is a very rigid structure comprised largely of sugars and proteins. However, during plant growth these cells increase 200 times their original size by addition of more sugars and proteins. How does the cell wall withstand the driving forces for growth? It has been assumed that chemical changes of wall constituents and wall networks orchestrated by enzymes and cell-wall modifying genes are implicated in the process.
To investigate the issue, the collaboration group worked with the root hairs of Arabidopsis thaliana. Growing root hairs require intensive cell-wall changes to accommodate expansion at the apical end by a process known as tip growth. Apically growing cells, such as those of root hairs, are great models to study the dynamic regulation of growth. Additionally, root hairs play an important role in plant nutrition and water uptake. The authors found that O-glycosylation, a process by which carbohydrates are attached to proteins, lipids and other organic molecules, is crucial for root-hair growth in Arabidopsis thaliana.
The study shows that blockage of the O-glycosylation reaction inhibits the growth of root hairs by 50%. Additionally, when the genes expressing the enzymes responsible for the O-glycosylation reaction are missing in the cell, the plants display shorter than normal root-hair length and reduced root-hair density. On the other hand, over-expression of these same enzymes doubles the length and increases the density of root hairs.
The changes that O-glycosylated cell-wall proteins undergo during growth represent a starting point to unravel the entire biochemical pathway involved in plant growth and development. Most important, the acquired ability to modulate growth in Arabidopsis thaliana is a breakthrough that can be further applied to other species in order to increase plant biomass through the vital functions of nutrient and water uptake of plant root hairs.

Then & Now: Main Street in Oneida once housed Hope's
ONEIDA >> Hope's Men and Boys clothing store was built in the 1800s where the current City of Oneida Justice Center is located at 110 Main street.
Marshall A. Hope was the proprietor for most of the store's existence, and Hope's was the only certified dealer of phys ed uniforms and Boy Scout clothing in Oneida for a long time according to Oneida City Historian David Alvord.
The original building was torn down in the 1970s after significant structural damage was discovered. Soon after, the remaining buildings on the end of that block were torn down to make way for the Herb Phillipson's that was built in the late '70s, early '80s.
Hope's had a part time home on Lenox Avenue until Hope passed away in 1981.

Support Iceshanty... Get some great gear and forum goodies... Join The Iceshanty Hardwater Militia
(in the 10s is the forecast)
Several different sources say we're definitely going into a colder weather trend here in the Northeast. It seems the weather has a way of averaging out. A warm fall should now be offset by a colder than normal Dec./Jan.
Its 24* hear... No signs of fishing yet.. All the snow is south of us.... Like Houston Texas................. .................
maybe if it gets colder later in the year, the ice will last later into the season ...that would be nice
I am lovin the 15 day accuweather forcast. Lows in the teens and highs below 32 for over a week straight.
24 here and the 10 day forecast is great for making ice around here. I don't think I'll be on the ice in 10 days but I'll bet there will be some that are.
gotta love that forecast mealworm... hopefully we'll be fishing in 2 weeks or so

Nomads Pierre Bouchard and Janick Lemieux have cycled all over the world, covering an equivalent distance of four loops of the planet. In this second instalment of our three part series*, we asked them about daily life on the road.
© nomadesxnomades.com
Cycling from Quebec to Miami in the summer of '89 was Canadian Pierre Bouchard's first long distance tour. He calls the 4000 km journey his "L'initiation" into bicycle touring.
"I came back hooked and convinced that the bicycle is the ultimate conveyance for overland journeys," he says. "The reasons are many: the autonomy and freedom it provides, the fact it's an environmentally sound means of transportation, it keeps one very fit, and provides a very intimate connection with our surroundings, whether landscapes, flora, fauna or humans!"
Since his "L'initation", Pierre and his partner Janick have cycled through more than 60 countries in the Americas, Europe, Asia and Oceania and Africa. They have mastered of the art of continental bicycle touring. We asked them about their daily life on the road.
Click for the first part of the series!
How has bicycle touring changed since '89?
There's been many changes, especially the improvement of the equipment to travel on bikes. From outdoor and camping innovations to bikes specifically designed and crafted to haul all the necessities to roam continents. Lately, with the advent of fatbikes, a whole realm of wild and remote terrain has become accessible.
© nomadesxnomades.com
What does an average day on the road look like for you?
Unless we're in hot deserts, we're slow risers. I usually get up first and ignite the stove to prepare hot drinks and porridge. We then start to pack up, a process that takes a couple of hours before we then hit the road. Depending on conditions and how scenic the landscape is, we cover anywhere between 40 to 120 km a day, averaging about 80 km. On expedition, taking the time to hike-trek-climb, write and immerse ourselves, we cruise about 1,000 km per month.
© nomadesxnomades.com
How much do your bikes and gear weigh?
Janick carries about 25 to 30 kg and I carry between 40 and 45 kg. It fluctuates with the amount of water and goods we need to carry. We're no minimalists. As this is a form of nomadism, our way of life, we'd rather make ourselves comfortable and ready to face any eventuality.
© nomadesxnomades.com
How do you navigate and keep track of your daily efforts?
On the road, our Suunto Ambit 3 Peaks play the role of dashboards and control panels. They record our daily pedal strokes and tons of useful data like altitude profiles, ambient temperature. For sketchy passages, like crossing into Ethiopia from Kenya via the Lower Omo River Valley and Turkana Lake over shifting desert tracks, we used our Ambits to navigate, having loaded them with the .gpx route a fellow bike traveller previously recorded and passed along over e-mail. With the impressive battery life, along with our Goal Zero solar power charger, we managed to keep them going for the last 600 days spent on the road, from the onset of our NOMADS² cycling odyssey.
© nomadesxnomades.com
Have you ever had a problem with your bicycles in the middle nowhere?
Of course! We always carry all the tools needed to open and adjust each of the components and carry crucial spare parts: tires, tubes, spokes, cables, drive train parts (chain, cassette and chain rings), brake pads. Breaking a rim is the only mechanical breakdown that can bring our caravan to a halt; we either have to walk or wait for assistance in order to move on!
© nomadesxnomades.com
Is finding food and water sometimes difficult?
Yes indeed! Thinking of our panniers as pantries, we always store and carry extra food. We spend a lot of time and effort getting info about the stretches of road ahead, especially with regards to availability of food and water. If we can collect water along the way we can usually last about seven to eight days without resupplying. If we need to carry our water, up to 30 litres between the two of us, we can last out there some three to four days – unless we're in Sudan during July and both need to drink 10-12 litres a day!
© nomadesxnomades.com
Any advice for someone doing his or her first bicycle tour?
Make sure your bike is well adjusted to your body (seat, handlebars and seat post). Prioritize simplicity, sturdiness and durability. Don't hesitate to invest in high-quality carrier racks, generally made out of steel (chromoly). And most importantly, planning is great but set a departure date and ready or not, go – it'll all work out! Trust the road!
*Stay tuned for our third instalment about the Nomads, and find out which countries in the world are the most cycling-friendly!

Psychic turf war in Norwalk
NORWALK -- A long-simmering feud between psychics appears to have boiled over Thursday when a woman reported to police she was violently beaten by a rival fortune-telling family.
The woman, Sophia Mitchell, 21, turned up at Norwalk Hospital with bruises on her buttocks and back, scratches to her right arm and a swollen right hand early Friday morning complaining she had been assaulted, a police report of the incident said.
The woman told police she was about to do a psychic reading at her sister's East Norwalk Psychic business at 106 East Ave. at 11 a.m. Thursday when rival "Greenwich Psychic" Janet Lee and her former husband George Eli, owner of Psychic Tea Room on Washington Street, barged through the door with an adolescent and began kicking her.
While at the hospital, Mitchell said that after being thrown to the ground, the three began kicking her in the back while Lee told Eli and the 17-year-old not to touch her face, the report said. During the assault, Lee stepped on her right hand and after the beating stopped they told her to keep quiet or they would come back and kill her.
In telephone interviews Friday, Lee and Eli denied being anywhere near the East Norwalk psychic on Thursday.
This would not be the first time the families have come to blows.
On June 9, 2010 police were called to a fight on East Avenue where Mitchell's brother-in-law traded blows with Eli and the same adolescent accused of barging into the East Norwalk Psychic on Thursday, according to an earlier police report.
At the time, Mitchell's brother-in-law Nino Miller and her sister Sabrina Demetro had been scouting out a location for their new psychic business.
While waiting to be shown the building by a real estate agent, Demetro told police that Eli, who was looking at the same building, came up to Miller and asked if he wanted his children to grow up without a father.
A fight broke out between the two men and Eli and the boy began to kick him after Miller slipped to the ground.
Eli accused Miller of first punching him and then going after the teen.
Eli said Miller and his family are "gypsies" and have targeted them because they believe they are moving in on their territory.
Assault charges against the two men were nollied last year.
Sabrina Demetro said she left her East Norwalk Psychic business on Thursday between 11:30 and 11:45 a.m. to go shopping and left her sister Sophia Mitchell to tend to her kids.
Demetro said she returned an hour later and found her sister shaking.
"She looked really nervous. She was really upset," Demetro said, adding that she thinks that Lee and Eli were really looking for her and not her sister.
Mitchell quickly left East Norwalk Psychic without saying anything about being assaulted, Demetro said.
"They think this is their territory, but we are not taking business away from them," Demetro said of Eli and Lee.
Lee said that she was doing a psychic reading with a client at 11 a.m. Thursday at her 255 Greenwich Ave. office and claimed not to have heard of the allegation before it was recited to her Friday afternoon
"I had no idea," she said. "I have been going through harassment with these people for a long time... I guess I have some spectacular locations and she (Mitchell) doesn't want me to have any time to run my businesses." Lee also owns Westport Psychic at 565 Westport Ave., in Norwalk.
Lee was arrested by Greenwich police in September 2009 on charges she filed a false report about a rival psychic attacking her outside her Greenwich Avenue office. Detectives found several inconsistencies in Lee's story, however, and alleged in her arrest warrant that her injuries were sustained during a domestic violence incident.
The charges against Lee were eventually dismissed after she completed a court diversionary program.
Eli, who is also known as Steve Cola, said he too was with a client doing a reading at 11 a.m. Thursday at the Tea Room, at 125A Washington Street.
"This is absolutely ridiculous ... I have no idea. These people are deranged and I have no idea. It has nothing to do with me," Eli said.

Brain loss at Mass. hospital blamed on malfunction
Samples needed for autism research
An independent analysis has found that malfunctioning freezer controls caused the defrosting of 147 brain samples at a Boston area hospital, including many critical for autism research.
Staff at Harvard-affiliated McLean Hospital discovered in late May that one of its 24 brain bank freezers had lost power days earlier. No one noticed because the digital readout on the front of the freezer still indicated minus 79 degrees and a backup system also malfunctioned.
McLean officials tell the Boston Globe since the malfunction all freezers at the Harvard Brain Tissue Resource Center have undergone a thorough inspection.
Some researchers criticized the hospital for putting the brains in the same freezer.
The lost autism brains make up about one-third of the Autism Tissue Program, which is run by the advocacy group Autism Speaks.

MINNEAPOLIS -- A federal appeals court on Tuesday backed the judge who ruled against the NFL and let quarterback Michael Vick keep more than $16 million in roster bonuses from the Atlanta Falcons.
The 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Tuesday affirmed Judge David Doty's order saying Vick had already earned the bonuses before his dogfighting conviction, so the money wasn't subject to forfeiture.
Vick served 18 months in prison and is now with the Philadelphia Eagles.
Doty has long handled matters arising from the NFL's collective bargaining agreement. After Doty ruled in the Vick bonus case, the NFL accused him of bias and sought to end his oversight of its contract with the players union.
The appeals court said the contract should remain under Doty's oversight.
NFL spokesman Greg Aiello did not say whether the league planned a further appeal, but he said the 8th Circuit upheld Doty's ruling on Vick's bonuses in large part because it found the contract's forfeiture language ambiguous.
"That is something that we will seek to change at the bargaining table to ensure that bonus payments are paid to players who comply with their contracts and perform on the field," Aiello said.
Vick, a former Falcons star, was released from federal custody July 20 after serving 18 months of a 23-month sentence for running a dogfighting ring in Surry County, Va. The Eagles signed Vick to a $1.6 million contract for 2009, with a team option for the second year at $5.2 million, but he has not played much.

Researchers are fine-tuning an experimental breast cancer vaccine that may help eliminate 20 to 30 percent of breast cancers. The vaccine - tested in mice - eliminated tumors from HER2-positive cancer, a type of cancer that accounts for 20-30% of breast cancers. The vaccine even worked to eliminate HER2 tumors that had developed a resistance to drugs aimed at treating them. (Herceptin, an expensive antibody-based drug, is designed to treat HER2 tumors, but patients eventually develop a resistance to it.) [Reuters]

Of course the tumor has the word 'Her' in it!

Overweight people can slash heart disease, stroke risk
- Three risk factors make big contributions to heart and stroke risk
- High blood pressure appears to create the most risk
- Losing weight is still important and has additional benefits
Overweight and obese people could slash their increased risk of heart disease by half and their increased risk of stroke by three quarters by controlling their blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar, a big new international study suggests.
The study, to be published Friday in the medical journal Lancet, is the largest so far to make the case that people who weigh too much can do themselves a lot of good by getting those risk factors under control through lifestyle changes and medication, even if they fail to lose weight. Blood pressure control appears especially important.
But they still will face higher risks than people with normal weights, says lead researcher Goodarz Danaei, an assistant professor of global health at the Harvard School of Public Health in Boston.
"The glass is kind of half empty and half full," he says. "You still need to control weight to get the full benefit."
The findings have meaning for a majority of adults in the USA: About two-thirds are overweight or obese, according the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. CDC also says one-third of all adults have high blood pressure and half do not have it under control.
For the study, researchers from Harvard, the Imperial College London and the University of Sydney pooled data on 1.8 million people who participated in 97 studies around the world. The researchers compared normal-weight people with otherwise similar people of the same age and sex who were overweight or obese, as defined by BMI (body mass index) a measure of weight relative to height.
The studies all followed people over a number of years. As expected, overweight and obese people had more strokes and heart disease and were more likely to have high blood pressure and unhealthy cholesterol and blood glucose numbers. The aim of the study was to look at how much of the increased heart and stroke risk was explained by those risk factors — rather than something else about being overweight or obese. Among the findings:
• 76% of the extra risk for stroke and 46% of the extra risk for heart disease was explained by the three risk factors.
• 65% of the extra stroke risk and 31% of the extra heart disease risk was explained by high blood pressure alone.
• Cholesterol and blood glucose levels had a smaller, but still significant, impact.
• The absence of risk factors seemed to matter less for the heaviest participants — meaning that other still poorly understood health changes associated with obesity may put them at higher risk for heart disease and stroke.
The study has some limitations, including the fact that the smaller studies it included often lacked information on exercise and diet, Danaei says. But, "the sheer size of the study reduces the uncertainty." It's also striking, he says, that researchers found the same risk patterns in rich and poor countries, in the West and in Asia.
It's an "excellent study," and in line with most previous reports, says Carlos Lorenzo, a researcher at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio who was not involved in the study. But, he says, more research is needed on other factors, such as inflammation and nervous system changes, that might accompany obesity and contribute to health risks. "There's continuing controversy over whether obesity itself is a risk factor," he says.
The dual message that people should control weight and cardiovascular risk factors is a good one, says Adam Tsai, an internist at the University of Colorado-Denver who specializes in obesity treatment and is a spokesman for the Obesity Society. He says it may be easier for many people "to take medication every day to lower blood pressure than to lose weight and keep it off."
But, he says, patients also should know they stand to gain many other health benefits from losing weight. Obesity increases risks for diabetes and certain cancers, as well as conditions ranging from sleep apnea to osteoarthritis, according to the CDC.
New guidelines for physicians, just released by the Obesity Society, American Heart Association and American College of Cardiology, urge them to treat obesity just as aggressively as any other ailment.

Better than "Twilight": 10 must-see vampire films
This list is aimed at a hypothetical viewer -- maybe young, maybe not -- who became immersed in vampire lore after having seen "Twilight," but who has yet to really sink his or her fangs into the genre's rich cinematic legacy, and who might be surprised to discover how elastic and surprising it can be. (In truth, it's probably aimed at my adolescent daughter, whose favorite movies include "The Graduate," "Election" and "Jaws" but fell asleep during "The Godfather" because the plot was too hard to follow.)

Tom Selleck won't be wearing Hawaiian shirts in his private life any time soon, but he'd gladly slip back into one for a "Magnum, P.I." movie.
"It's a bit like wearing a flag," the "Blue Bloods" star chuckled about wearing Thomas Magnum's trademark tropical prints in public, but 22 years after his breakout series ended its run, Selleck is still eager to reprise the role on the big screen– he just needs Universal, the property's owner, to give him back the keys to Robin Masters' red Ferrari. With the recent success of TV properties-turned-film-franchises like "The A-Team," Selleck thinks the time is right for Magnum's return – but he'd rather see a revival than a reboot.
"I keep hearing talk of it now but I think they have a dilemma," Selleck told Popcorn Biz. "I don't think they want me in it, but everybody sees me in it from the response I get. They'll either make it or they won't. I hope if they make it that whoever is in it will pay homage to it and not trivialize it and make fun of it like they do with so many television shows. The 'Magnum' audience is very loyal, and I would compare it a little more to 'Star Trek' than I would some of the other shows that they've trivialized."
U.S. & World
Stories that affect your life across the U.S. and around the world.
Selleck hopes the studio sees the wisdom of allowing him to reclaim the role one day. "Look, if he's going to be a 17-year-old pubescent youth, I can't play him," he laughed. "But it's weird with audiences: they know you're not the character, but they think these characters live and what they want to know is where is he now and what happened while we've been away. That's where a good movie should start. It shouldn't be a reunion show so that everyone can tune in to see how everyone has aged. I don't want to do that."
In the mid-90s, Selleck even recruited bestselling author – and major "Magnum" fan – Tom Clancy to collaborate on a film story where Magnum had returned to the Navy but found himself far behind the curve and forced to return to his prior career as an island investigator, but frequent regime changes at Universal stalled the project. He thinks the story would still work today.
"They don't call and they don't write," Selleck said, "but I can help them a lot."

Addressing a new report highlighting the increasingly high cost of living in Massachusetts for single mothers, Senate President Therese Murray reissued her call for welfare reform this session to make sure the neediest get the help they need and those scamming the system get weeded out.
Addressing a new report highlighting the increasingly high cost of living in Massachusetts for single mothers, Senate President Therese Murray reissued her call for welfare reform this session to make sure the neediest get the help they need and those scamming the system get weeded out.
"There are too many recipients in our system receiving waivers who are not receiving the education and training needed to secure a job and move out of the system. These are loopholes that need to be closed to ensure that our system presents a clear path for our residents to reach economic independence," the veteran Democratic legislator from Plymouth told nearly 100 people gathered for presentation of the Crittenton Women's Union Economic Independent Index and "Hot Jobs" report.
The report, published every three years, determined that a single parent with one school-age child and one preschooler needs to earn at least $65,880 a year to cover basic food, housing, transportation and child care needs. To earn that salary, a worker must be paid roughly four times the state's minimum wage.
The cost of "economic independence" has increased $4,262 a year since Crittenton last published the index in 2010, a 6.9 percent increase that outpaced inflation by two tenths of a percent. Franklin County had the highest cost of living, while Franklin County was the lowest.
"Any way you slice it, the cost of living in Massachusetts is high. That really isn't going to change," said Elisabeth Babcock, president of the Crittenton Women's Union.
Separately, the Massachusetts Budget and Policy Center on Monday released a report on Monday showing that cash assistance through Transitional Aid to Families with Dependent Children, a welfare program that assists the state's low-income families, has lost more than 40 percent of its value since 1989, when adjusted for inflation.
The report said cash assistance is not sufficient to lift poor families out of poverty, a problem compounded by the shrinking availability of education and job training assistance. The cash value of the maximum annual 1989 grant for a three-person family, when adjusted for inflation, was $12,351, compared to today's maximum $7,116 grant.
Along with the index, the Crittenton Women's Union published its updated list of "Hot Jobs" offering those living in poverty a roadmap to the types of professions that pay a livable wage, are in demand in Massachusetts and often don't require more than an associate's degree.
The 15 top jobs include administrative service managers, electronic engineering technicians, dental hygienists, corrections officers, and building inspectors. The group also put together 50 "Smart Start Jobs" with lower salaries but room for growth.
Murray said the report could help residents find good-paying professions to lift themselves out of poverty, while also providing trained employees for businesses looking to fill vacancies. Also key to the process of reducing poverty, Murray said, will be reforming the system to make sure those who need help get the services they deserve.
"There are thousands of Massachusetts residents desperately in need of the assistance provided by our welfare system who are not able to get services because of some recipients who are determined to work the system to their benefit and received services they do not need," Murray said.
Murray, who helped write a welfare reform law in 1995 changing the system from one of cash assistance to a welfare-to-work program for some recipients, said she has most recently heard about people living in subsidized housing with guaranteed heat and electricity that are also collecting $500 checks for heating assistance from the state that could be going to elderly and others that need the help.
"It's important that our residents are not learning how to work the system, but learning how to get out of the system and get out of poverty," Murray said.
Welfare reform was first identified by Murray as a top priority in a speech to Senate members in January, but the session has been off to a slow start as leaders have been preoccupied with addressing Gov. Deval Patrick's tax reform proposal and drafting their own fiscal 2014 budget.

UPPER MARLBORO, Md. (AP) — Maryland officials will be breaking ground for an energy efficient building in Prince George's County.
Prince George's County Executive Rushern Baker and Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown will attend the groundbreaking ceremony on Thursday in Accokeek for the Potomac Watershed Study Center.
The building is being touted as one of the most environmentally friendly in the world. When it is finished, supporters say it will take green buildings to a new level by being a net-zero water, net-zero energy and carbon neutral facility.
It's the region's first Living Building. Now, there are only three certified Living Buildings in the world.
Energy for the facilities will be generated from photoelectric and solar thermal arrays and geothermal wells. Rainwater will be collected and purified for use in the center.

While ARM started in desktops many years ago, it's mainstay is now in mobile devices. However, it is aiming at higher ground, including wrestling away a part of server market from the X86 vendors. What is Intel doing to keep them at bay, and what impact will it have?
Anyone of the old guard still remembers the 1985 Acorn Risc Machine, or, in shortform, ARM? From my teenage days, it was a memory of an exciting new processor architecture, completely different from its contemporary complex instruction set competitors – just like in modern buildings, simplicity was the answer, and complexity was left to the compilers. The first ARM was 32-bit, just like its follow-ons 26 years ago now.
After staging a grand revival through the smartphone and tablet markets, and becoming the definite No. 2 CPU platform in the world, ARM has now set its sights higher, to the mainstream mobile, desktop and yes, even server markets. And that's where it hits the X86 leaders, Intel and AMD, spot on.
Now, ARM has no software base to speak of in the server field, and its architecture not only is still 32-bit, but also lacks all those error correction, reliability and durability features expected in servers. However, the application specific 'green' micro servers, used just for serving web page accesses, don't need any of these. They just require the ability to put hundreds of energy-saving simple CPUs in a single rack, each serving a group of web requests in a small local memory, 2 GB – the 32-bit direct addressing limit after I/O space is taken – being more than enough for it.
This a relatively small part of server market, and a low-margin one, an equivalent of generic corporate desktop in the PC market. But an entry is still an entry, very worthy for ARM CPU vendors to get a foothold before they are ready for more, once the Windows 8 and, then, the 64-bit ARM arrive.
So, the danger is there – remember that X86 core consumes more power and die size than an equivalent performance RISC, so it needs to be compensated through system design. On the other hand, Atom is 64-bit from the start, keep in mind – an enormous benefit when handling any sort of shared memory mapping between hundreds of processors in a single server, something impossible for ARM for another 2 years or so. Not to mention all the X86 software support built over the years, something ARM will not have in foreseeable future.
And that's where Intel's 2012 answer to ARM comes, in the form of 'Bordenville' Atom microserver platform around the 'Centerton' chip, optimised from ground up for this segment, especially at the system level. The quadruple density compared to even the lowest voltage Xeon, with over 2,000 processors in one rack, and the simplest ever system design of any X86 processor, are aimed at creating a formidable wall against the ARM entry into this market.
The Centerton chip itself is a simple dual-core 32 nm 64-bit CPU. It contains just two 'Saltwell' multithreaded 1.6 GHz Atom cores with 512 KB L2 cache each, a single-channel DDR3-1333 ECC low voltage memory controller for up to 8 GB on a single SO-DIMM, and 8 PCIe v2 lanes, with legacy I/O and SMbus included on-die as well. This removes the need for any sort of chipset. Simply, just use PCIe v2 lanes to attach what you really wish, like a Gigabit Ethernet, storage controllers like SAS, InfiniBand or even one of those PLX PCIe v2 switches to let multiple processors talk to each other directly over PCIe itself at ultra low latency!
With this kind of compact footprint, we are talking about just 5W to 8W total TDP for the whole system on a chip (SoC), and an enormously efficient footprint with CPU modules just about the size of a credit card! And this is a chip with full memory RAS features including scrubbing; with full virtualisation implemented as well, and 64-bit address space.
What impact would this launch have? Well, it hits ARM in the two weakest spots: lack of 64-bitness and software support. The extra server features like RAS and virtualisation, which ARM takes time to implement, are also native here. And, despite the complexity of the clumsy x86 core, the overall power consumption per node will be similar to the best ARMs in class – and this is a 32 nm chip, mind you. Also, for dense 'green' supercomputing, this chip may have some allure, as it can even allow tight interconnecting of many of them together via PCIe switches on local boards, then further via InfiniBand or Ethernet.
On the other hand, the vendors like HP and Dell are anyway waiting to diversify their offerings a bit, and not just depend on X86. HP is already promoting such microservers, and ARM will have some foothold, like it or not. Either way, the 2012 microserver market will be the first battle of the larger upcoming high end market war between X86 and ARM.

Season schedules for 2014-2015 are beginning to filter into email boxes and although the Orange County Philharmonic wasn't first off the block (that "honor" went to the Long Beach Symphony — INFO),the OCPS announcement is noteworthy because it usually gives a tease of the Los Angeles Philharmonic's upcoming Walt Disney Concert Hall season.
The L.A. Phil and Music Director Gustavo Dudamel will journey to the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall in Costa Mesa on Sunday, Nov. 23 for an afternoon concert that will feature what's being termed the world premiere of Stephen Hartke's long-delayed Symphony No. 4 "Organ." The Hartke piece was originally scheduled to debut in May, 2010.
Also on the program are Saint-Saëns' Symphony No. 3 (also subtitled "Organ") and Barber's Toccata Festiva for Organ and Orchestra. Cameron Carpenter and the Phil's own keyboard virtuoso, Joanne Pearce Martin, will be the soloists, playing the hall's William J. Gillespie Concert Organ.
Assuming that this is not, in fact, the world premiere of the Hartke piece — i.e., if we presume that this performance will follow concerts in Disney Hall with the same program — that cycle will give organ lovers a chance to compare the Segerstrom Concert Hall Organ with Disney Hall's much larger instrument.
The OC organ, a "tracker" or mechanical action organ built by C.B. Fisk, Inc. of Gloucester, Mass., has 4,322 pipes in 75 ranks with 57 stops. It was first played in concert in 2008. Glatter-Götz of Germany built the Disney Hall instrument under the tonal direction and voicing of Manuel Rosales and its first concerts were in 2004. The Disney Hall is much larger than its OC counterpart: 6,125 pipes in 109 ranks with 72 stops. Reflecting its Fisk design concept, the OC organ sounds much brighter than the Disney Hall instrument; its bright metal pipes also provide a much different look from the "overturned French fries" façade in Disney Hall, which was designed by Frank Gehry. The comparisons will be fun and instructive.
The upcoming OCPS schedule could easily have been termed "The British are Coming, The British Are Coming." The season opens Oct. 11 when Vladimir Jurowski conducts the London Philharmonic in music by Dvorak, Tchaikovsky (Symphony No. 6) along with Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No. 3, with Jean-Efflam Bavouzet as soloist.
Also coming across the pond is the London Symphony Orchestra, led by Michael Tilson Thomas on March 28, in a program including Britten's Four Sea Interludes from the opera Peter Grimes, Shostakovich's Symphony No. 5, and Gershwin Piano Concerto in F with Yuja Wang as soloist.
As part of a 50th anniversary season tour, the Monteverdi Choir makes appearances at Segerstrom Hall April 24 and 25, 2015 led by Sir John Eliot Gardiner. The first concert is Monteverdi's Vespers of 1610 and the second is that composer's L'Orfeo. The English Baroque Soloists accompanies the choir.
Other orchestras on the schedule:
• The Czech Philharmonic, conducted by Jiří Bělohlávek on Nov. 14, with a program of Dvorak's "New World" Symphony paired with Liszt's second piano concerto, with Jean-Yves Thibaudet as soloist.
• The Rotterdam Philharmonic, led by Yannick Nézet-Séguin, on Feb. 11, 2015 in a meaty program of Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 5 and Brahms' Piano Concerto No. 1, with Hélène Grimaud as soloist.
• The Venice Baroque Orchestra on Feb. 28, 2015 playing with Israeli mandolinist Avi Avital.
• The State Symphony of Mexico, commemorating the 40th anniversary of its first U.S. Tour, on March 5, 2015, with Enrique Batiz conducting a program of two works by Manuel Maria Ponce: his Piano Concerto, with Irina Chistiakova as soloist, and Concierto del Sur, with Alfonso Moreno as guitar soloist. Music by Rimsky-Korsokov and Borodin rounds out the evening.
The season also includes recitals and chamber-music concerts, some at Segerstrom Hall and others at the Irvine Barclay Theatre. One of those evenings will be a salute to Carl St.Clair's 25th anniversary as music director of the Pacific Symphony. Another will performances of the Mark Morris Dance Company's production of Dido & Aeneas on May 15 and 16.

Museum History
The Port Colborne Historical and Marine Museum opened its doors to the public for the first time on May 31, 1975, following many months of preparation and planning by a Steering Committee which was established in January of 1974 to develop a Museum in the former Arabella Williams' home at 280 King St. in downtown Port Colborne. The Museum is open daily, 12 noon to 5 p.m. from May to December.
The Williams House which contains the Main Exhibition area, is a clapboard Georgian Revival Style home built in 1861 by Arabella's parents, John and Maria Judith Williams on a block of property which was part of the original Merritt Survey. The property and buildings were deeded to the City of Port Colborne in 1948, two years before Arabella's death in 1950.
Buildings original to the deeded property include the 1869 Williams Home, the 1870 Carriage House, the 1917 Arabella's Tea Room and the garage. All other buildings and structures were moved onto, reconstructed on, or built on the grounds after 1975.
The Carriage House which houses a restored Arabella's Carriage, has had many uses, serving as a Blacksmith Shop until the current Blacksmith Shop was constructed, as an activity centre, a display space, a special event area and as a storage area. It was renovated with funding from the local Jaycees in 1990 to display the Neff Steam Buggy which was on loan during the summer of 1994. In the summer of 1996 it was opened as the Carriage House Gift Shop to sell consignments and items reflective of the site. Currently the building serves as an activity centre for school tours and events.
Arabella's Tea Room is a 1915 frame cottage built as rental income for the Williams Family. It was turned over to the Museum Board by the City in 1976 and was renovated to open as a Tea Room on Canada Day, July 1, 1978. Arabella's Tea Room is operated by the Port Colborne Museum Auxiliary which was established in 1977 and is open daily from June 1 to September 30, serving Afternoon Tea of hot homemade tea biscuits and jam from 2 - 4 p.m.
Several structures described as follows have been added to the Heritage Grounds since its beginnings.
The 1946 Wheelhouse from the tugboat, "Yvon Dupre Jr." was moved to the Museum grounds in 1975 in time for the Museum's Grand Opening. It was built by Marine Industries Ltd. of Sorel, Quebec.
The 1871 Anchor from the propeller ship, "Raleigh" was added later in 1975. It was raised from the wreck which sank near Port Colborne during a storm in 1911.
The 1835 Log Schoolhouse, believed to be one of the first in Humberstone township was reconstructed on the Museum grounds in 1976.
An 1850 Log House built by John and Sally Sherk on Brookfield Road was reconstructed on the Museum grounds in 1980 and a summer kitchen was added in 1983 to house the Graf Loom.
The F.W. Woods and Sons Blacksmith Shop building was relocated from Port Colborne Quarries in 1984 to serve as an 1880's blacksmith operation serving the Welland Canal trade.
The 50-passenger Lifeboat from the "S.S. Hochelaga" was donated to the Museum by Canada Steamship Lines and brought to the Museum in 1991 by Herb Fraser and Associates. The Hochelaga was built in 1949 at the Collingwood shipyards as a bulk freighter and converted to a self-unloader in 1964.
An enclosed Sun Porch with expanded seating space and a fully-accessible washroom were added to Arabella's Tea Room in 1990 and officially opened at Arabella's Pie Social on June 2, 1991.
The Captain John W. Sharpe Heritage Resource Centre, a 3600 sq. ft., 2-story building, was constructed on the Museum Grounds in 1995 to house the Museum's Reserve Collection of 16,000 artifacts.
In 2006 the L.R. Wilson Heritage Research Archives and Visitor's Centre was constructed between the Port Colborne Museum and the Port Colborne Public Library. The building was designed externally to recapture the spirit of Port Colborne's first Town Hall which was built in 1873 and torn down a half-century later. The Archives provides a climate- controlled repository for the documentary history of Port Colborne and area, a research room available to the public and a conference room to accommodate a variety of groups.

Hey, where y'at!
I'm Chuck, and this is my personal web site that's gotten out way of hand over the years. It's a huge, labyrinthine and delightfully overgrown compendium of knowledge about New Orleans and Louisiana cuisine and culture, and lots of other fun and fabulous stuff; dedicated to the enjoyment of great food, drink and music, and to the preservation of New Orleans culture.
When you're visiting New Orleans and southern Louisiana, remember these things:
1. You don't need a full 8 hours of sleep a night -- there's too much fun to be had to waste it sleeping.
2. In Louisiana alcohol, butter, cream and big piles of fried seafood are still good for you.
Looka!: A weblog* featuring musings on cocktails, food, music, New Orleans culture and much more.
(* Or "blog," if you insist. I'm old school and still say "weblog." I'm not a fan of the word "blog," which was originally coined as a joke.)
The Creole & Cajun Recipe Page: Woild-famous! Fo' true!
What to do in New Orleans: Our favorite places to go, things to do and other essential information.
OUTDATED! 2013 update in progress!
Cocktails: an index of 350+ new, classic and original cocktails. there's much fine drinking to be done here.
Photography on my Flickr photostream.
My old radio shows: "Down Home" (KCSN, 1998-2008) and "Gumbo" (KCRW, 1988-1998). A little compendium of my 20 years in L.A. public radio.
The Non-Commercial Radio List: A (fairly) comprehensive listing of non-commercial, community and public radio stations in North America and beyond.
My antique radio collection. Modest, but cool.
"Doctors, Professors, Kings & Queens: The Big Ol' Box of New Orleans": A 4-cd box set celebrating the joy and diversity of the New Orleans music scene. Produced, compiled and annotated by Chuck Taggart (hey, that's me!), with liner notes by Mary Herczog (former author of Frommer's New Orleans) and myself. Released by Shout! Factory.
Bands: My old Uncle Tupelo, Wilco and Son Volt pages. (Also, don't miss Factory Belt, the world's most exhaustive Uncle Tupelo fan site.)
Store: My online shop featuring my picks for books, cocktail tools and more, via amazon.com
Tip Jar! Everything you find on this site is free. Your tips help keep it all going and are greatly appreciated. I happily accept contributions via Paypal, or if you're feeling particularly generous, you can buy me something. Thanks!
What's New? A Tumblr sub-weblog about updates to the site, now that the big-ass redesign is (slowly) rolling out.
About this site: Credits, dedication, origin, history, the early funny stuff, zzzzzz, etc.

ROP – Careers in Law Enforcement Course
The Regional Occupational Program – Careers in Law Enforcement Course is being offered by the Ripon Police Department, in cooperation with the Ripon Unified School District and Ripon High School, to 11th and 12th grade students attending Ripon High School. The course is designed to provide information to students regarding various careers in law enforcement. Students participate in a daily, two-period class, and receive instruction on topics such as: The history of policing, the American criminal justice system, the duties of a police officer, the role of the courts and how correctional facilities operate.
Students also take several field trips throughout the year. Destinations include: The Ripon Police Department's police station, the Ripon Police Department's shooting range, the Department of Justice Crime Lab, and the California Highway Patrol Academy in Sacramento. Students will meet people from a variety of local, state and federal law enforcement agencies. These guest speakers will talk to the students about their particular agency, what it takes to get a job with that agency and what their individual assignment is within their agency. Students will also be exposed to hands-on training regarding the day to day duties that a police officer takes part in and will also learn about officer safety tactics so that a police officer is able to return home at the end of their shift. In addition, students have an opportunity to ride with an on-duty police officer for a portion of their shift so they can experience what life is like working a patrol area.
A main component of this course is to educate the students on the proper methods to apply and interview for a job. Obviously the lessons will focus toward getting hired by a law enforcement agency, but the skills they learn can be applied to any career choice the student ultimately makes.
The class was originally offered during the 2004 – 2005 school year. Based upon feedback received from the students, parents and the school district, we believe this course has been very successful in reaching out to the youth of our community. We look forward to the continued success and growth of the course in the years to come.
If you would like further information regarding the ROP Course, please meet with your guidance counselor.
