Flower Industry Makes a Statement at Hospice's 12th Annual Floral ...
?
Death is a part ? albeit?painful part ? of living. The type of issue that comes along once in a while from a distance to remind us of it?s inevitability and occasionally close enough to shake us to the core. In cases of long term illness there is some time to prepare, to care for and attend to situational matters and possibly come to grips with some level of acceptance. But, What do you say to 6 year old daughter when she asks where her Grandma has gone? How as a parent do you attempt to fill the space that was once a loving hug? How do you move past your grief long enough to deal with funeral arrangements??What do you do when?aftermath?an expected?loss hits so hard that you can barely stand? Just remember you are not alone.
Hospice, Inc. with 69 offices in NY State and over 5,000 offices nationally, is the leading bereavement support services provider bringing quality care and compassionate healing to families since 1974. Some history?:
The organization was spun in the mid seventies after Dr. Elizabth Kubler-Ross published her book On Death and Dying identifying the 5 stages terminally ill patients go through. It was a national best seller that opened the medical industries eyes to home-care services. She then testified at the first national hearings conducted by the U.S. Senate Special Committee on aging on the subject of ?dying with dignity? siting,?We can give families more help with home care and visiting nurses, giving the families and the patients the spiritual, emotional, and financial help in order to facilitate the final care at home.? The first Hospice was founded in 1974? in Connecticut. Legislation that provided federal funds followed in 1974.
Hudson Valley has two Hospice offices (one in Poughkeepsie and one in Kingston). Patient care, family care, bereavement counseling and family support services are all provided through Hospice and their many volunteers. Currently there are 157 local volunteers providing outreach for Mid-Hudson Hospice. Michelle Haynes ? a Dutchess county resident ? is a lovely woman with a comforting smile. She has trained once a year since 1992? in order to serve the community through Hospice support services. Michelle arrives to comfort people in their time of loss, holds hands and shares stories ? often remaining friends with the families for years to come.
On a local level Mid-Hudson Hospice has been uniting with local florists for 12 years ? throwing a beautiful soiree that benefits the organization and it?s very important work.?Poughkeepsie Grandview was home to the event?in 2012 uniting? 9 local?florists with?a?room packed full of?flower lovers and Hospice supporters ? ?checkbooks in hand ? ready to bid on?a?cornucopia of beautiful?arrangements donated by local florists.
?Floral Magic??event ? as it?s recognized?was hosted by?Dot Chenevert ? former owner of The Green Oak Florist and past president of the Mid-Hudson Floral Association. Dot ? who has since sold her flower business ? shared a message about the local florist industry that comes in handy during this holiday season and all year round,??We are a very generous and giving industry made up of mostly small family shops. We depend on our community for support??. In other words, buy local.
Poughkeepsie?s own Flower Barn florist (located on Violet Ave.) hears this message loud and clear. Barbara is a 3rd generation florist who shares her market with some national names in flowers who she creates and delivers for, but the relationship does under cut her bottom line.??A large variety of arrangements are available through most local shop websites and calling shops directly keeps all of the dollars local.? Use these services and keep those dollars local!

Cassini spots mini Nile River on Saturn's moon Titan
Dec. 12, 2012 ? Scientists with NASA's Cassini mission have spotted what appears to be a miniature, extraterrestrial likeness of Earth's Nile River: a river valley on Saturn's moon Titan that stretches more than 200 miles (400 kilometers) from its "headwaters" to a large sea. It is the first time images have revealed a river system this vast and in such high resolution anywhere other than Earth.
Scientists deduce that the river, which is in Titan's north polar region, is filled with liquid hydrocarbons because it appears dark along its entire length in the high-resolution radar image, indicating a smooth surface.
"Though there are some short, local meanders, the relative straightness of the river valley suggests it follows the trace of at least one fault, similar to other large rivers running into the southern margin of this same Titan sea," said Jani Radebaugh, a Cassini radar team associate at Brigham Young University, Provo, Utah. "Such faults -- fractures in Titan's bedrock -- may not imply plate tectonics, like on Earth, but still lead to the opening of basins and perhaps to the formation of the giant seas themselves."
The new image is available online at: http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/cassini/multimedia/pia16197.html .
Titan is the only other world we know of that has stable liquid on its surface. While Earth's hydrologic cycle relies on water, Titan's equivalent cycle involves hydrocarbons such as ethane and methane. In Titan's equatorial regions, images from Cassini's visible-light cameras in late 2010 revealed regions that darkened due to recent rainfall. Cassini's visual and infrared mapping spectrometer confirmed liquid ethane at a lake in Titan's southern hemisphere known as Ontario Lacus in 2008.
"Titan is the only place we've found besides Earth that has a liquid in continuous movement on its surface," said Steve Wall, the radar deputy team lead, based at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif. "This picture gives us a snapshot of a world in motion. Rain falls, and rivers move that rain to lakes and seas, where evaporation starts the cycle all over again. On Earth, the liquid is water; on Titan, it's methane; but on both it affects most everything that happens."
The radar image here was taken on Sept. 26, 2012. It shows Titan's north polar region, where the river valley flows into Kraken Mare, a sea that is, in terms of size, between the Caspian Sea and the Mediterranean Sea on Earth. The real Nile River stretches about 4,100 miles (6,700 kilometers). The processes that led to the formation of Earth's Nile are complex, but involve faulting in some regions.
The Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA, the European Space Agency and ASI, the Italian Space Agency. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, manages the mission for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington. The Cassini orbiter was designed, developed and assembled at JPL. The radar instrument was built by JPL and the Italian Space Agency, working with team members from the US and several European countries. JPL is a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena.

Study probes impact of climate change on cold-blooded animals
Dec. 12, 2012 ? A new study by biologists at Mercyhurst University focuses on the influence of climate change, particularly warmer winters, on the survival and potential fecundity of cold-blooded animals.
Cold blooded animals, or ectotherms, do not have an internal mechanism for regulating body temperature. Instead, they rely on solar energy captured by the environment.
The purpose of the Mercyhurst study, a collaboration of Michael Elnitsky, Ph.D., assistant professor of biology; and students Drew Spacht and Seth Pezar, is to assess the current and future impacts of climate change on the overwintering energetics and microenvironmental conditions of the goldenrod gall fly (Eurosta solidaginis). Larvae of the goldenrod gall fly have long served as model organisms for studying the strategies used by freeze-tolerant animals for winter survival.
"We used historical temperature data to estimate the overwintering (November through March) energy use of larval gall flies," Elnitsky said. "Based upon the relationship between metabolic rate and temperature, the estimated energy utilization during winter has increased by more than 30 percent over the last 50 years."
Further, with continued climate change, each additional 1?-degree C rise in temperature during winter is projected to increase energy use by 12 percent. The consequence of this is that the amount of energy remaining at winter's end directly determines how many offspring the goldenrod gall fly can produce.
"Unlike some other insects that are benefiting from a changing climate, goldenrod gall fly populations would be predicted to decline," Elnitsky said.
The research team has begun similar assessments of the impacts of a changing winter climate for other arthropods, such as deer ticks (Ixodes scapularis) that transmit Lyme disease bacteria and the hemlock woolly adelgid (Adelges tsugae), an invasive insect destroying hemlock forests throughout the eastern U.S.
The Mercyhurst group presented their research at the annual meeting of the Entomological Society of America (ESA) in Knoxville, Tenn., last month. Spacht of Erie and Pezar of Madison, Ohio, were awarded the President's Prize in the Physiology, Biochemistry and Toxicology section for their poster presentation. The President's Prize is the award given to the top undergraduate presentation in each section at the conference, which was attended by more than 4,000 scholars.
Also at the conference, Chris Strohm, a 2011 Mercyhurst biology graduate and currently a graduate student in entomology at the University of Kentucky, was awarded second place among graduate students in the Systematics, Evolution and Biodiversity section.

Jury says Apple iPhone violated three patents, damages unclear
(Reuters) - A U.S. jury on Thursday found that Apple's iPhone infringed three patents owned by holding company MobileMedia Ideas, though damages have not yet been determined.
The verdict was delivered after a week-long trial in Delaware federal court, said Larry Horn, chief executive of MobileMedia. An Apple spokeswoman declined to comment.
The three patents, which cover features like camera phone technology, were acquired from Nokia and Sony Corp in 2010, Horn said. Those two companies hold a minority interest in MobileMedia, he said.
Representatives for Nokia and Sony could not immediately be reached for comment.
The trial only concerned liability, and a damages proceeding has not yet been scheduled, Horn said. MobileMedia also has litigation pending against HTC Corp and Research in Motion Ltd.
"Our goal is really to license these patents broadly to the market," Horn said.
In court filings, Apple has asked a judge to rule that MobileMedia's patents are invalid as a matter of law, and that there is no "legally sufficient" basis to find MobileMedia has proven infringement.
The case in U.S. District Court, District of Delaware is MobileMedia Ideas LLC vs. Apple Inc, 10-258.
