Syrian crowdmapping project documents reports of rape

Earlier this month, an unnamed woman in the village of Sahl Al-Rawj, Syria, left the safety of her hiding place to plead for the lives of her husband and son as government forces advanced. She was captured and five soldiers took turns raping her as she was forced to watch her husband die.
Her shocking story - officially unverified - is just one of many reports of sexual violence against women that has come out of Syria as fighting continues between government forces and rebels. Now a crowd-mapping website, launched this week, will attempt to detail every such rape and incident of sexual violence against women throughout the conflict.
The map is the creation of the Women under Siege initiative, and uses the same crowdsourcing technology developed by Washington DC-based Ushaidi, which is also being used to calculate the death toll in the recent fighting.
Anyone who experiences or witnesses an incident is asked to report what happened via email, SMS, Twitter - using #RapeinSyria as the hashtag - or directly on the site. Reports that appear in traditional news outlets are also collated. A map of the region then shows where each attack has taken place, as well as more details about each incident when you click on the link. The stories are categorised by degrees of violence and who the perpetrators were.
Women Under Siege is also working both with refugee groups on the ground in neighbouring Lebanon and Turkey, as well Syrian activists who live abroad, to help collate the stories from their friends and relatives and bring them to the wider public.
Women under Siege director Laren Wolfe told Mashable: "The emphasis is not so much the number, but that this is a crisis. Entire communities are torn apart by sexual violence and conflict ... My hope is to get the international community to realize that [the crisis in Syria] is also a public health crisis."

Elderly Care,Los Angeles|In-Home Care Advantages|Executive ...
Last updated 10 hours ago
Many people are often anxious about considering elder care for their loved ones, but the truth is that elder care provides a variety of necessary services to those in need.? A family is often unable to provide the necessary help required to support their loved ones in their time of need.? However, elder care at home addresses the needs of everyone by providing the convenience and comfort of a home care companion at an affordable cost.? Take a look at just a few of the ways that in-home elder care can help your family:
Security
Seniors typically have less physical, emotional, and economic reserves to insulate them from the impacts of criminal activities or serious accidents.? In-home elder care offers the protection and support of another person at their side when others may have too many obligations to consistently ensure their safety.
Individual Care
An in-home elder care service offers one-on-one supervision and interaction for your loved one.? A home care companion works with them to ensure both their comfort and peace of mind.
Housekeeping
Due to a variety of factors, elderly people may suffer from debilitating conditions that inhibit their ability to perform simple functions.? In-home elder care focuses on helping your loved one maintain their independence while providing them with necessary services to ensure their good health.
Cost
Independent caregiving can be a significant investment of your physical, economic, and psychological resources.? While you should never hesitate to consider all of the best care options for your loved one, in-home elder care can ease the responsibility of independent caregiving and is often more affordable than comprehensive assisted living facilities.
Executive Home Care is a family-owned and operated senior home care business that has been providing in-home elder care for families in the Los Angeles area for over a decade.? With BBB-accreditation and several experienced professionals, we are committed to maintaining high-quality service for all of our clients.?

China officially tops one billion mobile subscribers
We heard last year that China was approaching 900 million mobile phone subscribers, and it looks like it's now finally hit the big one. The country's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology confirmed today that, as of the end of February, there were more than a billion mobile subscribers in the country (1.01 billion, to be specific). As the AFP notes, that's individual subscriptions, which includes users with more than one phone, but any way you slice it that's a whole lot of cellphone users. Of those, 144 million are on 3G networks, which is fully double the number from April of 2011. Not surprisingly, much of that growth comes at the expense of landline phones, which have dropped a further 828,000 in the first two months of the year to 284.3 million. Internet use also continues to be on the upswing, with more than half a billion people having internet access of some sort, and 154.96 million having broadband access (up nearly five million during those same two months).

More Details about http://www.pestcontrolcenter.com here.
When a insect infestation or some rodents take up residence in someones home, it is the homeowner's responsibility to find a way of getting rid of the pest; whether it be a pest control Roseville specialist or some store bought poison and traps. The only people who are affected by a residential infestation are the people in the residence, and possibly their neighbors. When a commercial property has a pest problem, it becomes a matter of public safety. Also a commercial property with a pest problem could risk losing business or even getting shut down if it is not handled.Different commercial properties and businesses will have different pest control needs. Companies that process or sell food need strict pest control in order to ensure no rodents or insects interfere with food that is going to eventually be consumed by a person. Restaurants need to keep up on pest control Roseville regularly in order to stay in business and keep regular customers and attract new ones. Hotels, motels, and any other hospitality service need to stay on top pest control since they work with so many different people on daily basis. If a rodent or infestation takes hold of a hotel; that hotel will probably lose a lot of business during the infestation and in the future if people know it has had pest problems in the past. Any commercial property that provides lodging, including apartment complexes, condos, etc., needs to keep up on pest control in order to keep tenants safe and happy.
Government buildings and healthcare facilities also have to consider their pest control Roseville options in order to ensure a clean and safe environment. Major businesses and public services often have contracts with pest control professionals. Contracts and services vary from company to company but a contract can provide the client with regular building inspections, reports on pests or potential weak spots that pests can get into.
Some businesses and commercial properties require professional pest control more than others; if you are a small business owner you should consider your situation and if a pest control Roseville professional is what your business needs. If you have frequent pest problems, or if you are worried about termites or other difficult to find pests, then you may want to get some quotes from different pest control companies. If you have small pest problems, like ants or one mouse or two, can be handled with poison and traps. You should not try to tackle large pest problems without professional help, the money you save may not matter if a customer sees a cockroach.
If you manage a commercial property you know how important pest control Rosevilleis to maintaining the property and keeping any business afloat. Keep your commercial property pest free by using professional pest control Roseville.

Protein 'jailbreak' helps breast cancer cells live
Wednesday, March 28, 2012
If the fight against breast cancer were a criminal investigation, then the proteins survivin, HDAC6, CBP, and CRM1 would be among the shadier figures. In that vein, a study to be published in the March 30 Journal of Biological Chemistry is the police report that reveals a key moment for keeping cancer cells alive: survivin's jailbreak from the nucleus, aided and abetted by the other proteins. The research highlights that a protein's location in a cell affects its impact on disease, and offers clear new leads for the investigation.
All four proteins were already under suspicion. Researchers, for example, have already tried to assess what levels of HDAC6 in patients with estrogen-receptor positive breast cancer may mean for their prognosis. The results have been inconclusive. The new research suggests that measuring overall levels may not be enough, said the study's senior author Dr. Rachel Altura, associate professor of pediatrics in The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University and a pediatric oncologist at Hasbro Children's Hospital.
"We need to look not only at the levels, but also where is it in the cell," she said.
Altura's emphasis on location comes from what her research team found as they tracked and tweaked the comings and goings of survivin in cells. Inside the nucleus, survivin is no problem. Outside the nucleus, but within the cell, it can prevent normal cell death, allowing cancer cells to persist.
In previous work, Altura and her collaborators established that under normal circumstances, CBP chemically regulates survivin, a process called acetylation, and keeps it in the nucleus. The question in the new work was how survivin gets out.
In a series of experiments, what they observed was that in human and mouse breast cancer cells, HDAC6 gathers at the boundary between the nucleus and the rest of the cell, becomes activated by CBP, then binds survivin and undoes its acetylation. This deacetylation allows survivin to then be shuttled out of the nucleus by CRM1.
In the classic jailbreak, CBP is a corrupt guard who looks the other way as HDAC6, the shovel, is smuggled in. The final accomplice, CRM1, is the tunnel with a getaway car on the other end.
Working the new leads
Altura said the research suggests a clear strategy ? to keep survivin in the nucleus ? and two leads to pursue it, both of which she has already begun working on with collaborators in academia and in the pharmaceutical industry.
One idea is to inhibit HDAC6 in an attempt to prevent it from misregulating the acetylation of survivin. While general HDAC inhibitors are in clinical trials, Altura is optimistic that blocking just HDAC6, using specific inhibitors developed by a colleague in Japan, would have fewer complications.
"You always have to worry about all the things you don't know that you are targeting," she said. "If we can target HDAC6, we can maybe block survivin from coming out of the nucleus and maintain it in its good state."
The other strategy is to block CRM1, Altura said, an idea she is pursuing with a pharmaceutical company in breast cancer cells in the lab. She said preliminary experiments look promising in keeping survivin inside the nucleus and making cancer cells more susceptible to dying.

'American Idol' Castoff Erika Van Pelt 'Went Crazy' With New Look
'It helped me come out of my shell a little bit more,' singer tells MTV News of Tommy Hilfiger-assisted makeover.
By Christina Garibaldi

"American Idol" contestant Erika Van Pelt may have disagreed with the judges' critiques of her rendition of Billy Joel's "New York State of Mind," but with the help of famed designer Tommy Hilfiger, she may have stolen the show when she drastically changed up her hairstyle from mid-length blond to a short black cut. But unfortunately for Van Pelt, it wasn't enough to save her from elimination from the show.
Even though Van Pelt won't be rocking out on the "Idol" stage anymore, she has no regrets about her makeover.
"I love it, and it's funny 'cause everyone was so shocked," Van Pelt told MTV News on Monday. "I've gotten good responses, but they're like, 'Wow you really did that? You'd be bold enough and audacious enough to do that?' But the funny thing is people don't know I do this at home. I've been doing this my entire life."
And it seems that she's not the only one who is enjoying her new look, which she said she was planning for quite some time.
"My friends, my family, my fanbase were really digging it," she said. "It helped me come out of my shell a little bit more. When Tommy Hilfiger came on as an image consultant, we started to talk about it. I had already had it in my mind that I wanted to do something drastic with it. I didn't know what, so when I got the green light, I went crazy."
Van Pelt, who will stay with the shorter hairstyle but might change the color, is now looking forward to hitting the road for the "Idol" tour. But after that, she is ready to branch out on her own.
"After the tour is done, I honestly want to get right to work," she said. "I want to work on my first album, I want to do a ton of writing, I even want to get involved in acting and musical theater. I would love to be involved maybe on Broadway. I'm just a hard worker and I don't care, 12-, 16-hour days, I'll put the work in this. It's what I want to do."
During her time on "Idol," Van Pelt drew comparisons to Pink, Kelly Clarkson and Janis Joplin, but it's British songstress Jessie J who the singer truly admires.
"I've been listening to a lot of Jessie J. She's totally amazing," the singer revealed. "She's got millions of fans and I still think she's underrated — amazing vocals and she's fearless. She doesn't make any excuses for who she is ... she's just totally 100 percent herself."
The two singers have more in common than you might think.
"Actually, for a while I had the shoulder-length dark hair with the straight-across bangs," Van Pelt said. "That was before I started listening to Jessie J, and then I saw her and I was like, 'Whoa!' "
What do you think of Erika's new look? Let us know in the comments.

Mining boom in Michigan: economic boost or environmental nuisance?
Demand for metals on the world market is prompting a mining boom in Michigan's rural Upper Peninsula, where jobs are scarce. But possible environmental damage to forests, lakes, and rivers alarms some locals.
Jeff TenEyck was glad to come home last year. He had left Michigan for a small trucking business in South Carolina but returned to work at a new mine just outside Big Bay, the little mill town where he grew up.
Skip to next paragraph"This is the biggest shot in the arm for the economy here since Henry Ford was here," says Mr. TenEyck, whose grandfather worked in a lumber mill that Ford bought in 1943.
Driven by a worldwide surge in demand for metals, mining is on the rebound in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, bringing the hope of jobs to remote and economically depressed rural communities. A dozen miles south of Big Bay, London-based mining giant Rio Tinto PLC and its subsidiary, Kennecott Eagle Minerals Co., are digging a shaft beneath a pine-covered flat called the Yellow Dog Plains. They plan to begin extracting nickel and copper early next year. Rio Tinto says the Eagle Mine will be the largest nickel mine in the country and will create as many as 700 new jobs.
Meanwhile, Orvana Minerals Corp., a Canadian mining company based in Toronto, is close to final approval for a copper mine expected to create hundreds of jobs in the sparsely populated western Upper Peninsula. Next in line, Aquila Resources Inc. and HudBay Minerals Inc. plan to apply for a permit later this year to mine zinc, gold, and silver at a small, open-pit mine along the Menominee River called the Back Forty Project.
There could be more. Mining companies have been busy prospecting for new deposits, crisscrossing the Upper Peninsula by plane and helicopter, drilling exploratory holes, leasing land, and buying up mineral rights. They've revisited old mines to see if new technology might make it profitable to reopen them.
"It's like flies to honey," says Theodore Bornhorst, professor of economic and engineering geology at Michigan Technological University in Houghton. "It's got a lot of people interested."
The prospect of jobs has also excited the hopes of residents. "It's a no-brainer for most people," says Amy Clickner, head of the Lake Superior Community Partnership, an economic development corporation in Marquette, Mich. "We do have a culture used to mining here. And the people who live up here do have to have jobs."
At the same time, many residents worry that new mining could damage the environment and threaten the natural abundance that they enjoy as hunters and anglers.
Around Big Bay, opponents of the Eagle Mine, including a local group of Ojibwa Indians, have packed hearings, gotten themselves arrested, and traveled to London to speak out at meetings of Rio Tinto shareholders. They have sued Michigan's Department of Environmental Quality for granting a mining permit in 2007. Most recently, they have been fighting the construction of a haul road through a wild area south of the mine.
"Of course we want jobs back in Baraga County," says Susan LaFernier, tribal council secretary for the Keweenaw Bay Indian Community, which lies west of the mine in a county with 18 percent unemployment. "We'd be crazy if we didn't. But we think the harm isn't worth those jobs."
