This subsection of the ‘Names and taxonomy’ section provides information on the name(s) of the organism that is the source of the protein sequence.

The organism designation consists of the Latin scientific name, usually composed of the genus and species names (the binomial system developed by Linnaeus), followed optionally by the English common name and a synonym.
Examples: Bacillus subtilis, Homo sapiens, Cardamine pratensis (Cuckoo flower) (Alpine bitter cress)

The synonym can be a common name in English (or in Latin in the case of some historical legacy names).
Example: Radianthus magnifica (Magnificent sea anemone) (Heteractis magnifica)

In the case of viruses, the designation does not follow the binomial system. The English common name is used as the scientific name, sometimes followed by an acronym. When possible, viruses are named according to the nomenclature of the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV).
Examples: Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (isolate BRU/LAI group M subtype B) (HIV-1), Influenza A virus (strain A/Aichi/2/1968 H3N2)

The organism name can differ from that given by the international nucleotide sequence databases for the same taxon. This is mainly due to our efforts in providing the most descriptive common names and synonyms to our users.

Note that the proteome for a given organism, when available, can be accessed through the proteomes page of our website.

Lost cat found after 16 years

April 6, 2012 at 4:22 PM

MUNICH, Germany, April 6 (UPI) -- Officials at a German animal shelter said a cat was reunited with his owner after spending 16 years living in the woods.

Bernhard Schoettel said his 19-year-old son, Kilian, found the cat while walking in the woods near Munich and brought it home, the New York Daily News reported Friday.

"My son immediately noticed that the animal was quite old," Schoettel said. "He felt sorry for it because it no longer had any front teeth. The tom was very trusting. We fed him for a few days and discovered that he was tattooed, so we took him to the animal sanctuary over the weekend."

Officials at the animal shelter said they were able to trace the cat's identification tattoo to owner Monika Moser, who said the feline went missing 16 years ago. The shelter said the cat's survival was unusual and he is now suffering from liver and thyroid problems.

Moser, who lives about 2 miles from where the cat was found, was reunited with the animal, the shelter said.

Gator spotted crossing Florida street

Jan. 7, 2013 at 3:48 PM

MIRAMAR, Fla., Jan. 7 (UPI) -- Residents of a southern Florida city said they were on the lookout for a 7-foot alligator seen crossing a city street during the weekend.

Miramar resident Floyd Chong, 55, said he nearly ran over the gator while driving in the Nautica gated community about 8:30 p.m. Saturday, the South Florida Sun Sentinel reported Monday.

"I thought it was a palm frond across the street actually but when I shone my headlights on it, it was a nice-sized alligator," he said. "When he saw my lights, he stopped and froze for a while and then he went on the sidewalk."

A crowd of about 30 residents gathered in the area to take pictures of the unusual sight, spooking the animal into a nearby lake.

Miramar police said animal trappers were searching for the alligator.

Floridians revel in sharing names with founding fathers, mothers

July 3, 2013 at 3:22 PM

MIRAMAR, Fla., July 3 (UPI) -- Florida residents sharing the names of U.S. founding fathers and mothers say having famous names can sometimes be beneficial.

Thomas Jefferson, a retired high school history teacher in Miramar, credited his name with sparking his interest in history and said his students "got a kick" out of their teacher sharing a name with a founding father, the South Florida Sun Sentinel reported Wednesday.

Jefferson said the name can be less convenient when he's trying to make restaurant reservations.

"They always think it's a joke when we call to reserve," he said. "Sometimes I just have to go by Tommy."

John Hancock, 45, of Hollywood said he is the third in his family to bear the name, although he doesn't think he is related to the most famous bearer of the name. He said his father, also named John, mastered the founding father's famous signature.

"I tried doing it for a while, but decided on just using my own signature," Hancock said.

Betsy Ross, 88, of Lighthouse Point said she didn't think much of marrying a man with the last name Ross until she soon ended up as the recipient of constant flag jokes.

"Pretty soon everyone starting asking me if my name was real," Ross said. "Of course, they always ask me about flags. I put up flags; I've never put one together."

Yale basketball player leaves team to join a cappella group

Brandon Sherrod won't be with the team for at least a year so he can tour with the Whiffenpoofs.
By Evan Bleier Follow @itishowitis Contact the Author   |   May 14, 2014 at 12:55 PM

NEW HAVEN, Conn., May 14 (UPI) -- Yale hoops star Brandon Sherrod has decided to forego the ups and downs of a college basketball season to focus on the sharps and flats of a male a cappella for a year.

The junior forward was selected as one of 14 students who will put senior year on hold to tour with the Whiffenpoofs a cappella singing group.

Composer Cole Porter was a former "Whiff."

The Bulldogs finished at 19-14 this year and were expected to challenge Harvard for the Ivy League basketball title next season.

"It was an incredibly hard decision," Sherrod told the New Haven Register. "But basketball is not my life. I have a lot of other interests and music is one of them."

The Whiffenpoofs are scheduled to sing on every continent except Antarctica next year.

"It would have been great if I was allowed to play this season and then join the group after my senior year," Sherrod said. "That would be ideal. But, they're not going to make exceptions just for me. There's 13 other juniors that would love to graduate with their class and then take a year off to travel and perform before heading into the workforce."

Sherrod will have a year of eligibility remaining when he comes back to school and head coach James Jones has said he's welcome to rejoin the team.

FDA: Don't use Plavix along with Prilosec

Nov. 18, 2009 at 3:35 PM

WASHINGTON, Nov. 18 (UPI) -- The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is warning patients against using the stomach acid reducer Prilosec with the anti-clotting drug Plavix.

FDA officials said new data suggests when patients take both Prilosec (omeprazole) and Plavix (clopidogrel), Plavix's ability to block platelet aggregation, its anti-clotting effect, might be reduced by about half.

Plavix is used to prevent blood clots that could lead to heart attacks or strokes in at-risk patients, the FDA said. Omeprazole, the active ingredient of Prilosec, is a proton pump inhibitor used to reduce the production of stomach acid and prevent stomach irritation.

The FDA said Plavix does not have anti-clotting effects until it is converted or metabolized into its active form with the help of a liver enzyme. Prilosec blocks that enzyme, thereby reducing the effectiveness of Plavix.

Officials said it's not known how other medications might interfere with Plavix. But the FDA said other drugs that should not be used with Plavix include Nexium, Tagamet, Diflucan, Nizoral, VFEND, Intelence, Felbatol, Prozac, Serafem, Symbyax, Luvox and Ticlid.

Conversely, the FDA said Zantac, Pepcid, Axid and antacids are not expected to interfere with the anti-clotting activity of Plavix.

Fish virus found in Canadian waters

July 19, 2012 at 6:13 PM

VICTORIA, British Columbia, July 19 (UPI) -- Canadian researchers have reported detecting a potentially deadly virus, found in some European salmon farms, in freshwater sport fish in British Columbia.

A Simon Fraser University fish-population statistician and a fisheries biologist at the Watershed Watch Salmon Society said they found evidence of the piscine reovirus (PRV) in cutthroat trout caught in Cultus Lake, in the Fraser Valley region of the province.

Analysis of the virus identified its genetic sequencing as 99 percent identical to strains that are widespread in Norwegian salmon farms and can kill up to 20 percent of infected fish.

The discovery of PRV in freshwater sport fish indicates the virus could be prevalent in British Columbia, researchers say.

"If PRV has been found in a Cultus Lake sport fish it could be contributing to the failure of the lake's sockeye population to return in abundance," SFU Professor Rick Routledge said.

PRV is the second virus commonly associated with salmon farming that scientists have found in wild Pacific salmon and trout, a Simon Fraser release said Thursday.

Researchers in many countries have raised concerns about the spread of PRV from farms to wild salmon.

NBA: Sacramento 113, Los Angeles Lakers 97

Nov. 22, 2012 at 1:03 AM

SACRAMENTO, Nov. 22 (UPI) -- A 3-pointer by Marcus Thornton started a late-game rush Wednesday that gave Sacramento a 113-97 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers.

The Lakers had a three-game winning streak halted while falling to the team with the worst record in the Western Conference.

It was the Lakers' first setback under new coach Mike D'Antoni and dropped them back to the breakeven mark.

The Kings led for most of the second half, but the Lakers were within four as the game headed into its final 3 minutes.

Thornton then hit his 3-pointer with 2:50 to play, kicking off a 17-5 Sacramento surge that ended the contest. He hit 8-of-13 shots from the field and scored 23 points off the bench to pace the Kings, who had lost five in a row.

Tyreke Evans added 18 points for Sacramento.

Kobe Bryant scored 38 for the Lakers, hitting 11-of-20 from the field and 11-of-13 from the foul line.

Report: Universal healthcare in any country requires mandate

By MEGHANN MYERS, MEDILL NEWS SERVICE, Written for UPI   |   April 24, 2012 at 5:17 PM

WASHINGTON, April 24 (UPI) -- The United States is the wealthiest and most powerful nation in the world but when it comes to healthcare coverage, it is only on par with developing nations like Ghana and Brazil, a Council on Foreign Relations report states.

The CFR conducted a roundtable discussion Tuesday on the findings of its newly released report -- "The New Global Health Agenda: Universal Health Coverage" -- which deals with the economic advantages of universal healthcare.

Universal healthcare coverage, the panel participants agreed, is the goal for all societies but each comes with its own set of political, social and infrastructural challenges to providing and guaranteeing access to affordable healthcare.

"It is a question of whether it is both feasible and desirable to try and build health coverage without resting it heavily on risk pooling," said Laurie Garrett, senior fellow for global health at the Council on Foreign Relations.

"That means some sort of mandate that both the well and the sick are in the same pool, sharing the same burden. It is probably the only way to financially make it affordable for a community, a society, a country, a whole people."

Daniel Altman, the director of thought leadership at Dalberg Global Development Advisors, a global development consulting firm, stressed that the most efficient way to cover citizens is through a universal system that protects a population from birth to death.

Keeping everything under one roof, he said, allows providers to keep costs down and negotiate prices with drug and medical supply companies.

"This is the genius of insurance, as any economist will tell you, that you're able to pool risk with a large group so that at no time do you have to make some extraordinary outlay in order to cover your costs," Altman said.

Good health, Altman added, is the most important factor for a country to be able to get its development off the ground, even more than education. More than 20 percent of the U.S. budget goes toward healthcare costs.

"If you can get reasonable health status for people in a poor country, there's a much better chance that they'll be able to turn it into a rich country," Altman said.

Alex Preker, a health expert the head of Health Industry and Investment Policy Analysis at the World Bank Group, told an anecdote of a woman in Ghana who tried to take her sick child to a local health clinic.

Ghana built its healthcare system from the ground up after the British colonial period ended and it couldn't support the British-style system. Ghana didn't, however, include an insurance mandate.

The woman took her child to a clinic and because she didn't have health insurance so coverage, the clinic denied care to her child. It was a public relations disaster for Ghana's healthcare workers because, as Preker noted, how could you deny care to a sick child?

However, government officials had decided that without a legal mandate, people wouldn't be motivated to buy coverage if they could just go to the emergency room.

The United States could find itself in a similar situation if the U.S. Supreme Court rules against the individual mandate in U.S. President Barack Obama's healthcare law.

Even with universal access to healthcare as laid out in the Affordable Care Act, without the individual mandate, people would be able to forego an insurance plan and receive care primarily through hospital emergency departments.

The report looks at examples of universal healthcare systems around the world, all of which are successful because they were built from the ground up. The problem in the United States, Garrett pointed out, is that the healthcare system evolved in small, disparate sections that now have little to do with one another and are each beholden to countless interest groups.

"The best we can hope for is to make these fragmentary pieces work together a little bit better, be a bit better regulated." Garrett said. "And that's what the health reform act tried to do."

Even if the Supreme Court rules against the law, the experts agreed that a universal coverage system in the United States is inevitable.

China to double Africa loans to $20B

July 19, 2012 at 9:39 PM

BEIJING, July 19 (UPI) -- China, seeking to strengthen ties with African countries, pledged $20 billion in loans in the next three years, doubling its earlier commitment.

Chinese President Hu Jintao made the announcement in Beijing at the fifth ministerial conference of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation attended by heads of state and ministers from 50 African countries. At the previous summit in 2009, China had pledged $10 billion in so-called soft loans.

Hu said his government will take measures in priority areas to support development in resource-rich Africa and boost the China-Africa strategic partnership, the official Xinhua news agency reported.

"China will provide $20 billion in credit to African countries to assist them in developing infrastructure, agriculture, manufacturing and small- and medium-sized enterprises," Hu said.

Hu said China's trade and investment in Africa have been expanding. In 2011, two-way trade reached $166 billion and Chinese direct investment in Africa has exceeded $15 billion, with investment projects covering 50 countries.

Africa's exports to China have largely consisted of raw materials, while Chinese exports have been largely manufactured goods such as electronics. This has raised criticisms that China is exploiting Africa's natural resources.

The New York Times said China's aid to Africa has expanded greatly while the continent had become a major provider of resources for China, such as oil from Sudan and Angola and copper from Zambia and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

The Times said among criticisms are that China provides aid without taking into consideration issues such as human rights performance and governance, as in Sudan. China is also seen as using its infrastructure projects such as roads and ports to benefit its own industries.

While praising China's involvement in Africa at the meeting, South African President Jacob Zuma was quoted as saying Africa's commitment to China's development has been demonstrated by supply of raw materials, other products and technology transfer, noting such trade pattern "is unsustainable in the long term."

Hu promised China would train 30,000 Africans, offer 18,000 scholarships and send 1,500 medical personnel to Africa. He said China would also help improve drinking water and protect forests.

Li Xinfeng, an African studies scholar at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, told the Times, "Before, China had more of an attitude that 'We'll give what we want to give you,' but now the aid is more focused on African needs."

Romney seeks to boost U.S.-Israeli ties

JERUSALEM, July 28 (UPI) -- Mitt Romney's camp indicated the U.S. presidential candidate's speech in Israel Saturday would build up the longstanding alliance between the two nations.

The presumptive Republican nominee moved on to Israel Saturday in what will be a closely watched preview of how a Romney administration would address the tensions in the Middle East.

"Given that so many of the threats to our values, to our way of life, and to our system of government are threats that would impact both Israel and the United States ... we need to do that much more to lock arms with Israel's leaders and convey to the world that we will treat threats to Israel as threats to America," Romney adviser Dan Senor told reporters.

Romney has meetings scheduled with Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and other Israeli leaders. He also will appear at a fundraiser breakfast Monday near the Wailing Wall with a small group of well-heeled American donors.

Romney will also sit down Sunday with Salam Fayyad, prime minister of the Palestinian National Authority; however, his schedule does not include a meeting with Palestinian National Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, who was elected on the anti-Israel Fatah ticket.

ABC News noted Romney's speech falls on Tisha B'ay, a national day of mourning in which Israel remembers various tragedies in the history of the Jewish people.

SAO PAULO, April 23 (UPI) -- Protests flared in the Rio de Janeiro slum of Paveo-Pavaozinho on Tuesday, after a young male dancer was killed.

Residents blame the police for the death, whom they believe mistook the dancer for a criminal.

Douglas Rafael da Silva Pareira's body was discovered Tuesday morning.

His injuries, Rio's State Security Secretariat tweeted, appeared to have been caused by a fall, and noted that his death was under investigation.

Rio police have undertaken increased "pacification" operations to root out drug gangs from the area slums in the lead up to the World Cup, which will be held in Rio in July.

Watch a gorgeous time-lapse of the Freedom Tower's construction

Posted By GABRIELLE LEVY, UPI.com   |   Sept. 11, 2012 at 12:04 PM

Much of Tuesday was spent looking back to the September day 11 years ago, clear and cool, until clouds of smoke and ash marred the sky as two planes crashed into the towers at the World Trade Center in Manhattan, killing nearly 3,000 and changing the trajectory of the United States.

Much effort has been spent to recover from the emotional, physical and economic damage wrought by al Qaida hijackers on September 11, 2001, and perhaps the most visible symbol of that recovery is the construction of the new One World Trade Center. Known also as the Freedom tower, 1 WTC has risen steadily since April 2006, ultimately reaching 1,776 feet upward into the sky. It's already the tallest building in New York, and will be the third-tallest building in the world at its final height.The new World Trade Center is due to open late next year, and external construction is nearing completion.

The webcam network Earthcam has put together a remarkable time-lapse of the tower's birth. It stands 105 floors high, as the final roof steel and antenna are still being installed, with the glass facade in place up to the 83rd floor.

None of the definitions on here are correct about hotel california. Well some are SORT OF correct, but the real story behind hotel california is, before 1969 the one hotel california that they were talking about was a satanist church. If you have ever seen the actual cover of the original album you can see the "leader" of the satanist church anton levey.
Hotel California, One of the popular songs by The Eagles, was about a sort of things. 1. It had references to drugs 2. It had references to sex

and finally

3. The song was about a satanist church that was turned into a hotel in 1969.

A point in time in a man or woman's life wear the man/woman sees the reality of his/her world and rather than maintaining a life that is one of consumerism (9-5, pressures with being famous: whatever really troubles them about society) they just check into Hotel California, a vacation/getaway of drugs to alleviate the pressures and bs today's society throws at you that fucks with your brain because you can see past everything but can't understand why people are the way they are.
Bill O'Reilly's/ FOX News contaminates my brethren's brains and they will be unable to easily look past differences, guess I gotta check into Hotel California again.
by Analomous December 20, 2013
A historic residence in LA torn down in 94'. Not a Hotel proper. It's a song by the Eagles with encrypted and well crafted messages using metaphor and play on words etc to convey a 1969 tragic event in such a way that only certain enlightened listeners can understand.
The Hotel on us in exchange for snitch money and this occurred in California. Eagles did not want to use La La Land to pin down the location and risk linking the incident to other artists who referenced the same historic event referred to as the Hotel California.
by Cody333 January 02, 2015
Hotel California is written by a band called the eagles. There is much agurement of the overall meaning. What i have pulled out of the song is being trapped in fame, for example you can check out anytime you like but you can never leave (meaning you wont be left alone/forgotten). Another line in this song is up ahead in the distance I saw a shimmering light, meaning being drawn in by the beauty and money and wanting it all. Such a lovely place, meaning a lovely life that only the bystanders see. I was thing to myself this could be heaven or hell, being good or bad. Basically overall saying the horrors behind the scenes the bystanders dont see. I had to find the passage back to the place i was before, finally realizing they did not want this after all.

U.S. Self-Propelled Gun Crew WWII
Modeling the U.S. Army in WWII

These three crew figures are reminiscent of Dynasty's "Fire! U.S. Artillerymen in firing position" (#35008). Both sets are pictured standing at the rear of an M12 gun motor carriage. Each set has a man pulling the firing lanyard, and another stands hunched over with his hands to his ears. While the third figure in the Dynasty set has his arm raised to give the firing order, the third soldier in the RESINation set has his left hand raised to his ear, and his right hand more positioned in front of his face. He may be about to plug his right ear, or his arm could be posed so he's holding a field telephone handset to his ear, receiving firing direction. A phone is not included, but you can find one from Custom Dioramics or even the old Tamiya "Combat Group" set.

All three soldiers wear the winter (tanker) combat jackets. Their trouser cuffs extend down to the tops of their service boots, so no leggings or gaiters are featured. No other weapons or equipment are provided for them.

The figures are molded in three or four components: arms are added to the torso/leg/head pieces. One figure's helmet is molded to his head, while the other two have separate helmets. The figures are similar to Verlinden in quality and size. They scale out on the tall side, the most erect of the three standing just under 6'3". But the helmets are smallish, like those found with Tamiya, Ultracast or Hornet figures and heads. Consequently, the helmets seem under-proportioned for the size of the figures. A DML helmet, however, looks much better on these heads, so depending on your tastes you might need to do a bit of swapping.

Earlier RESINation figure releases were listed a 54mm, or 1/32 scale. The box for this kit calls it "35mm," an obvious mistake, while later figures are labelled 1/35. Clearly there's some confusion about scale these initial figures are supposed to represent.

I was rather surprised when I saw the figure sculptor is Krisztián Bódy. The "U.S. Mechanic" figure from Corpus, released around the same time, is sculpted by Bódi Krisztián. Obviously something got mixed up in translating the credits for the box covers. What is more interesting, however, is that the Corpus figure scales out to under 5'10" while these figures are considerably taller.

Otherwise, the sculpting is quite good. There are some prominent seams to be removed and a bit of flash. I noticed that the right hand index finger, resting on the knee of the man pulling the lanyard, seemed a bit strange, as if it had been broken off and expediently replaced with a piece of plastic rod. On examining the box photo, the color of this finger is different than the others. This seems to suggest the finger is wrapped in a bandage. If this was intended by the sculptor (perhaps based on a period photograph?) it's a clever and realistic touch. If it's a patch-up job under tight production deadlines, YOU can be the clever one and paint it as a tan bandage.

Along with placing these figures behind an M12, you could use them with Italeri's 105mm or 155mm howitzers. Combined with Dynasty's set, or Verlinden's two gun crews, you could begin to build yourself a battery of guns defending Bastogne.

They don't tape conversations, personal information or video.

In December, the Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) proposed a new standard that would help make our roadways safer — while preserving consumer privacy.

OUR VIEW: You don't necessarily own what yours record

Requiring automakers to install event data recorders in all passenger vehicles to capture safety-related data in the seconds before and during a motor vehicle crash will help explain the dynamics of a crash and inform future efforts to improve vehicle safety.

Event data recorders are already being used in 96% of new vehicles today to provide critical crash data that might not otherwise be available.

These devices capture data from the five seconds before and during a crash that help crash investigators, regulators and vehicle manufacturers understand how drivers respond in a crash and whether key safety systems operate properly. In fact, event data recorders play a key role in whether an air bag functions properly by monitoring information needed for the system to determine whether and when to deploy the air bag.

Yet it's important for the public to understand what an event data recorder doesn't do. When a crash occurs, an event data recorder takes a snapshot of a few seconds of information, such as how fast the vehicle was moving or whether the brakes were applied. An event data recorder does not record conversations, personal information, or video — and it doesn't track a vehicle's location.

Out of consideration for driver privacy, our agency treats the data captured by these devices as the property of the vehicle owner and obtains the owner's consent before accessing the data. NHTSA is only proposing that event data recorders collect information immediately related to a crash — and the agency is encouraging the public to view the proposal in the Federal Register and submit comments for consideration before any final regulation is issued.

Ultimately, the information captured by event data recorders can be used to help automakers design safer vehicles and to help crash investigators and NHTSA determine whether there are safety issues with specific vehicles that could put the public at risk.

The agency's proposal would ensure that this important tool remains in the fleet and continues to provide safety information that will save lives and reduce injuries for years to come.

David Strickland is administrator of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

1Then sad at heart, I groaned and wept aloud. With sobs I began to pray:*

Tobit’s Prayer for Death

2“You are righteous, Lord,

and all your deeds are just;

All your ways are mercy and fidelity;

you are judge of the world.a

3And now, Lord, be mindful of me

and look with favor upon me.

Do not punish me for my sins,

or for my inadvertent offenses,

or for those of my ancestors.b

“They sinned against you,

4and disobeyed your commandments.

So you handed us over to plunder, captivity, and death,

to become an object lesson, a byword, and a reproach

in all the nations among whom you scattered us.c

5“Yes, your many judgments are right

in dealing with me as my sins,

and those of my ancestors, deserve.

For we have neither kept your commandments,

nor walked in fidelity before you.

6“So now, deal with me as you please;

command my life breath to be taken from me,

that I may depart from the face of the earth and become dust.

It is better for me to die than to live,*

because I have listened to undeserved reproaches,

and great is the grief within me.d

“Lord, command that I be released from such anguish;

let me go to my everlasting abode;

Do not turn your face away from me, Lord.

For it is better for me to die

than to endure so much misery in life,

and to listen to such reproaches!”

Sarah Falsely Accused. 7* On that very day, at Ecbatana in Media, it so happened that Raguel’s daughter Sarah also had to listen to reproaches from one of her father’s maids. 8For she had been given in marriage to seven husbands, but the wicked demon Asmodeus* kept killing them off before they could have intercourse with her, as is prescribed for wives. The maid said to her: “You are the one who kills your husbands! Look! You have already been given in marriage to seven husbands, but you do not bear the name of a single one of them. 9Why do you beat us? Because your husbands are dead? Go, join them! May we never see son or daughter of yours!”

10That day Sarah was sad at heart. She went in tears to an upstairs room in her father’s house and wanted to hang herself. But she reconsidered, saying to herself: “No! May people never reproach my father and say to him, ‘You had only one beloved daughter, but she hanged herself because of her misfortune.’ And thus would I bring my father laden with sorrow in his old age to Hades. It is far better for me not to hang myself, but to beg the Lord that I might die, and no longer have to listen to such reproaches in my lifetime.”e

11At that same time, with hands outstretched toward the window,* she implored favor:

Sarah’s Prayer for Death

“Blessed are you, merciful God!

Blessed be your holy and honorable name forever!

May all your works forever bless you.f

12Now to you, Lord, I have turned my face

and have lifted up my eyes.

13Bid me to depart from the earth,

never again to listen to such reproaches.

14“You know, Master, that I am clean

of any defilement with a man.

15I have never sullied my own name

or my father’s name in the land of my captivity.

“I am my father’s only daughter,

and he has no other child to be his heir,

Nor does he have a kinsman or close relative

whose wife I should wait to become.

Seven husbands of mine have already died.

Why then should I live any longer?

But if it does not please you, Lord, to take my life,

look favorably upon me and have pity on me,

that I may never again listen to such reproaches!”

An Answer to Prayer. 16At that very time, the prayer of both of them was heard in the glorious presence of God. 17g So Raphael was sent to heal them both: to remove the white scales from Tobit’s eyes, so that he might again see with his own eyes God’s light; and to give Sarah, the daughter of Raguel, as a wife to Tobiah, the son of Tobit, and to rid her of the wicked demon Asmodeus. For it fell to Tobiah’s lot* to claim her before any others who might wish to marry her.

At that very moment Tobit turned from the courtyard to his house, and Raguel’s daughter Sarah came down from the upstairs room.

* [3:1] Pray: prayer is a significant theme, occurring at six major turning points in the story (3:26, 1115; 8:58, 1517; 11:1415; 13:118).

* [3:6] It is better for me to die than to live: in his distress Tobit uses the words of the petulant Jonah (Jon 4:3, 8), who wished to die because God did not destroy the hated Ninevites. In similar circumstances, Moses (Nm 11:15), Elijah (1 Kgs 19:4), and Job (Jb 7:15) also prayed for death. Everlasting abode: a reference to Sheol, the dismal abode of the dead from which no one returns (Jb 7:910; 14:12; Is 26:14). See note on Tb 4:6.

* [3:7] From here on, the story is told in the third person. Verse 7 relates one of the several marvelous coincidences that the storyteller uses to suggest divine providence; see also vv. 1617; 4:1; 5:4. Ecbatana: Hamadan in modern Iran; this was the capital of ancient Media. Raguel: the Greek form of the Hebrew name Re‘u’el, “friend of God.”

* [3:8] Asmodeus: in Persian aeshma daeva, “demon of wrath,” adopted into Aramaic with the sense of “the Destroyer.” It will be subdued (8:3) by Raphael (v. 17), whose name means “God has healed.”

* [3:11] Toward the window: that is, looking in prayer toward Jerusalem; cf. Dn 6:11. “Blessed are you” and “Blessed be God” are traditional openings of Jewish prayers (Tb 8:5, 15; 11:14; 13:1).

* [3:17] It fell to Tobiah’s lot: according to the patriarchal custom of marriage within the family group. Tobiah was Sarah’s closest eligible relative (6:12). Cf. 4:1213; Gn 24:4; 28:2; Ru 3:912; 4:112.

a. [3:2] Ps 25:10; 119:137; Dn 3:27.

b. [3:3] Ex 34:7.

c. [3:4] Dt 28:15; Bar 1:1622; 2:45; 3:8; Dn 9:56.

d. [3:6] Nm 11:15; 1 Kgs 19:4; Jb 7:15; Jon 4:3, 8.

e. [3:10] Tb 6:15; Gn 37:35; 42:38; 44:29, 31.

f. [3:11] 1 Kgs 8:44, 48; Ps 28:2; 134:2; Dn 6:11.

g. [3:17] Tb 4:1213; 6:1213; Gn 24:34.

ASHRAE Addendum “am” Change Seeks to Reduce WWR to 30 Percent in Small- to Medium-Sized Buildings

The American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers Inc. (ASHRAE) has filed a proposed change to Addendum “am” to ASHRAE 189.1, “Standard for the Design of High-Performance Green Buildings Except Low-Rise Residential Buildings” that would limit the window-to-wall (WWR) ratio to 30 percent in small and medium-sized buildings “for the purpose of reducing energy use.”

The specific wording change would read as follows (with additions underlined):

“ Vertical Fenestration Area. The total vertical fenestration area shall be less than 30 percent of the gross wall area for buildings smaller than 25,000 ft2 (2500 m2) of gross conditioned floor area and shall be less than 40 percent of the gross wall area for all other buildings. This requirement supersedes the requirement in Section of ANSI/ASHRAE/IES Standard 90.1.”

“Modern buildings with low lighting power densities and occupancy sensors cannot save as much energy from windows and daylighting as was previously predicted,” writes ASHRAE in the foreword to the proposal. “Also some simplified daylight simulation tools (split flux method) tend to overestimate how deeply one could daylight from windows. Even though energy consumption increases with increased window area, windows are valued by building occupants for view and marking the passage of time.”

The proposal continues, “Thus this proposal recommends that the prescriptive compliance option allow a moderate amount of windows for the view they provide and other amenities, but limits the WWR to 30 percent in small- and medium-sized buildings for the purpose of reducing energy use.”

The standard previously had a 40-percent WWR for all buildings; this change would only apply to buildings less than 25,000 square feet.

ASHRAE cites a recent Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) analysis in its reasoning for the change and claims that the PNNL study “showed that energy consumption of a medium office building increased with increasing WWR.”

“The analysis used radiance to perform daylighting simulations that were ported to EnergyPlus to complete the energy simulation. The analysis considered blinds, window VT, six climate zones, exterior obstructions and interior furniture,” writes the committee.

The study did a comparison in Houston, Phoenix, Baltimore, Chicago, San Francisco and Vancouver, and claims that in each case as WWR rose energy consumption did as well. For example, in Phoenix, the study claims that when the WWR hit 40 percent for a medium office building, energy use rose by almost 20 percent. (Click here to view full proposal.)

The proposal currently is open for a 45-day public comment period that opened Friday and runs through June 17.

Comments should be sent to Bert Etheredge at with a copy to the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), which oversees the standards-making process, at Comments also can be submitted on the ASHRAE website at

Thomas Culp of Birch Point Consulting LLC, code consultant for the Glass Association of North America (GANA) and the Aluminum Extruders Council (AEC), made the following statement in response to the release of the proposal.

“This flawed proposal takes a shallow viewpoint, ignoring why designers put in windows in the first place, and the potential negative human impacts from reducing access to daylight and views,” says Culp. “It is particularly concerning that this is a green standard whose scope specifically includes indoor environmental quality and occupant well-being.”

Culp had warned participants at the recent Building Envelope Contractors (BEC) Conference in Las Vegas that this proposal was on the horizon.

He told attendees that more than three-quarters of all buildings are less than 25,000 square feet, including schools, offices, assisted care facilities, etc. He also warned that if a code change such as this is approved it could ultimately mean fewer windows and shorter/smaller windows.

“Strip windows would become punched openings; curtainwall would become strip windows, etc.” he said.

    1. Offer consumers a superior value and do not allow your financial goals to drive pricing. In stead, you should get your costs down to the level needed to provide both superior consumer value and acceptable return for your organization.

    2. We called for a plan that would break even in three years, no "ifs, ands, or buts." We said we would do this by achieving greater focus in laundry detergents.

    Thank you in advance.

    Re: drive pricing

    In this case 'drive' can be understood as 'control' or 'push'

    'Break even' in this case means to reach a point where income equals outgoings

National Youth Awards Nominations Due August 15

Youth Awards US Lacrosse

Peyton Williams

We all know them. They’re all around us. They’re the people who volunteer their time to make the youth lacrosse experience better for others.

Some are coaches. Some are officials. Some are administrators. In many cases, they have their own kids playing. In some cases, they do not.

Their involvement may have started because a volunteer was needed when their son or daughter joined the team. The league was shorthanded, and they’re the type of person who says, “Sure, I’ll help out.”

But in many cases, those days are now past. Their own child has moved along, but that willing volunteer is still in place. He or she is now coaching your son, or officiating your daughter’s game, or selflessly coordinating the league’s operations.

It’s the dedication of these individuals, all around the country, that has been the driving force behind the successful growth of youth lacrosse. And US Lacrosse wants to recognize these individuals for their ongoing contributions to the game.

That’s the purpose of the US Lacrosse Youth Awards, presented annually at the US Lacrosse National Convention, to these worthy contributors across multiple areas of service.

There are nine categories available for nomination, including:

  • Outstanding Contribution to the Youth Game
  • Youth Girls’ Coach of the Year
  • Youth Boys’ Coach of the Year
  • Program Administrator of the Year
  • Outstanding Youth Girls’ Official
  • Outstanding Youth Boys’ Official
  • Excellence in Growing the Game
  • One for All Award
  • Founders’ Circle

It’s about honoring those who make a difference. To read more about the award categories or submit an online nomination, visit our youth awards page.

Please act quickly. Nominations close this Friday, August 15.
