In addition to the Long Island Sound projects, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) with several partners, and with the assistance of Nelle DAversa, the Long Island Sound Study bioextraction coordinator, initiated a pilot bioextraction project in Great South Bay and Hempstead Bay. The pilot project, made possible with funding from the Long Island Community Foundation and the Long Island Sound Study, is using sugar kelp in order to assess the usefulness of, and cultivation costs associated with, nutrient bioextraction in urban Long Island waters. There are four major project components: (1) sugar kelp culturing; (2) sugar kelp cultivation and nutrient uptake analysis in Great South Bay and Reynolds Channel; (3) sugar kelp fertilizer pilot study; and (4) educational workshops. Sugar kelp is being grown from December through May at three sites in New York of varying environmental and physical conditions in order to improve water quality by removing nitrogen and ...

With these types of swims, unless I supplied my own boat pilot and boat, of which I possess neither, I dont know the skill at which the former handles the latter on race day. I hope for the best and do all I can to communicate my wants and needs. It helps that my crew also knows what these wants and needs are, thus can advocate for me while I am otherwise occupied. This event, Swim Across the Sound, is extraordinary in its organization and competence, stemming from such a talented team, with each boat captain generously donating his/her services for the day to the event. They are all top-notch and participating for the right reason - to help each participant achieve their goal. Captain Ewan was a-m-a-z-i-n-g in his ability to read the tides, judge the conditions presented and make course adjustments during every single moment of the swim, properly position the boat, and discount what other boat pilots were recommending. Eventually, the Race Committee boat suggested they tie the race balloon to ...

Long Islanders love their lawns and do their best to make them healthy. But studies suggest that many may be going overboard in their pursuit of an idealized lawn; especially in over-applying fertilizers in a way that overloads the local marine environment. EPA Region 2 and the Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) have teamed up to address the problem with a public awareness campaign that encourages homeowners to limit their use of lawn care products to reduce their impact on groundwater, local water bodies, and the aquatic life that inhabit them. Many water bodies in and around Long Island, including the Long Island Sound, have water quality problems. Even the relatively pristine Peconic Estuary between the east ends north and south forks is showing the stresses of pollution. Fertilizers and pesticides can contribute to those problems. When homeowners over-apply or incorrectly apply fertilizers and pesticides, the rain washes them into groundwater, streams, lakes, the Sound, and the bays. Too ...

Connecticut Light & Power notified the Long Island Power Authority that it would support repairs to four severely damaged transmission cables that run under Long Island Sound between Norwalk and Northport, N.Y. The two companies hope to complete the repairs before the hottest summer months, when electricity demand is often at its peak, said Frank Poirot, a spokesman for CL&P. The cost of repairs has yet to be determined. Insurance might pick up some of the expense, Poirot said.

A multimodality approach is used in the diagnosis of lymphomas. Diagnosis may be particularly challenging in some cases solely based on morphology and immunophenotyping. The molecular testing exploits the rearrangement of the immunoglobulin heavy chain and kappa genes. These genes rearrange over kilobases of genetic sequence and are unique for each normal mature B-cell and plasma cell. A reactive process, thus will demonstrate a polyclonal expansion of B-cells with different sixe rearrangements whereas a malignant process will often demonstrate expansion of a B-cell population that originates from a single cell and hence all will have the same rearrangement. The detection of a clonal immunoglobulin heavy chain / kappa gene rearrangement by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) can be extremely helpful as an aid in the diagnosis of malignant B-cell lymphoma.. ...

At least two presidents have had major medical procedures to treat chronic illness while in office: Grover Cleveland and Dwight D. Eisenhower.. In what has to be one of the most amazing medical maneuvers of all time, Grover Cleveland underwent a clandestine surgery to treat mouth cancer near the beginning of his second term in 1893. To pull it off, he arranged for his surgery to take place on a friends yacht in Long Island Sound, using the cover story of a month-long fishing trip. The surgery took place in the refurbished saloon of the boat, where he had several teeth and part of his jaw removed. To ensure there was no noticeable difference in either his appearance or speech, he was fitted with a prosthesis and continued to cultivate his trademark mustache. He never relapsed and the surgery was not officially acknowledged until 1917, nine years after Clevelands death.1,5. Dwight D. Ike Eisenhower had a massive heart attack in 1955, about midway through his first term. It was likely the ...

Block Island in Long Island Sound, called by the Indians Manisees, the isle of the little god, was the scene of a tragic incident a hundred years or more ago, when The Palatine, an emigrant ship bound for Philadelphia, driven off its course, came upon the coast at this point. A mutiny on board, followed by an inhuman desertion on the part of the crew, had brought the unhappy passengers to the verge of starvation and madness. Tradition says that wreckers on shore, after rescuing all but one of the survivors, set fire to the vessel, which was driven out to sea before a gale which had sprung up. Every twelvemonth, according to the same tradition, the spectacle of a ship on fire is visible to the inhabitants of the island. ...

A pet owner should know their dog inside and out since lethargy can get often confused with a tired or lazy dog. A rule of thumb is that if your dogs behavior is different to how they usually act this could be a cause of concern. A lazy dog chooses when they are active and usually have a reason behind moving either it is to protect a family member or to go and eat their dry or wet food. However, if a lazy dog does not move when they usually do or even react to you calling them then this can be concerning. All dogs tend to like routine and their behavior is often predictable. If your dog is naturally lazy it does not mean that they are suffering from lethargy. They will still respond to their name and will still have an appetite for their dog food, regardless of how much they usually eat. Dogs like to eat dog food, but not all dogs eat a lot.. The symptoms of lethargy usually are usually the following:. Your dog is sleeping a lot more than they usually do. Some dogs can sleep up to 10 hours a ...

Firstly thanks for this forum and your input.

Eelgrass (Zostera marina) is an important benthic flowering plant used by many marine species as a nursery and food source; it also sequesters carbon, and the beds provide some protection for shorelines from coastal erosion by slowing water movement. In the past century, approximately 90% of eelgrass beds have been lost from natural and anthropogenic causes. Eelgrass was once a major component of the shorelines of Long Island Sound, USA, which has experienced many of these effects, including rain runoff carrying pesticide and fertilizer residues. Knowledge and analysis of the water quality parameters in Long Island Sound influencing eelgrass distribution will enhance restoration efforts in the future. A GIS model was created that estimates the habitat suitability for all areas in Long Island Sound with respect to key environmental variables. The habitat model has two parts. First, the study area was limited to regions where eelgrass growth is possible based solely on water depth, assuming that ...

PY - 2001/1/1. Y1 - 2001/1/1. N2 - Encephalitis lethargica (EL) was a complex and mysterious disease that appeared around the same time as the great influenza pandemic of 1918. The contemporaneous relationship of the 2 diseases led to speculation that they were causally related. Contemporary and subsequent observers conjectured that the influenza virus, directly responsible for the deaths of more than 20 million people, might also have been the cause of EL. A review of the extensive literature by observers of the EL epidemic suggests that most contemporary clinicians, epidemiologists, and pathologists rejected the theory that the 1918 influenza virus was directly responsible for EL. Disappearance of the acute form of EL during the 1920s has precluded direct study of this entity. However, modern molecular ...

Twenty patients (16 from 2-16 years old, mean 10.4 years; 4 from 17-69, mean 47.5 years) with an encephalitis lethargica (EL) syndrome resembling that reported in the 1916-1927 epidemic, and presenting between 1999 and 2002, are reported from Great Ormond Street Hospital, London, and other tertiary neurology centers in the UK. The EL syndrome consisted of a sleep disorder (somnolence, sleep inversion, or insomnia), lethargy, parkinsonism, dyskinesia (dystonia, oculogyric crises, hemiballism, chorea or tics), and neuropsychiatric symptoms (mutism (10 patients), anxiety, depression (6), agitation, catatonia, obsessive-compulsive disorder, ophthalmoplegia or pupillary abnormalities (7), headache (6), and seizures (3). Eleven patients (55%) had a pharyngitis infection before onset of symptoms, 10 had a monophasic illness, and 7 a relapsing course. Five made a complete recovery at mean follow-up of 5 months (range 2-14 months), and 15 have persistent impairments (movement disorder in 6 and ...

Lethargy is a state of tiredness, weariness, fatigue, or lack of energy. It can be accompanied by depression, decreased motivation, or apathy. Lethargy can be a normal response to inadequate sleep, overexertion, overworking, stress, lack of exercise, improper nutrition, boredom, or a symptom of a disorder. It may also be a side-effect of medication or caused by an interaction between medications or medication(s) and alcohol. When part of a normal response, lethargy often resolves with rest, adequate sleep, decreased stress, physical exercise and good nutrition.

Encephalitis lethargica (EL) describes an encephalitis with psychiatric, sleep, and extrapyramidal movement disorders. Dyskinetic and parkinsonian forms have been described. EL shares clinical features with the anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR-Ab) encephalitis. We studied 20 sera from pediatric patients with contemporary EL. Ten sera (from 2 males and 8 females, aged 1.3-13 years) and 6/6 cerebrospinal fluid samples were positive for NMDAR-Ab. NMDAR-Ab-positive patients had dyskinesias, agitation, seizures, and insomnia, whereas parkinsonism and somnolence dominated in the NMDAR-Ab-negative children. We were unable to identify any tumors. The dyskinetic form of EL is an NMDAR-Ab encephalitis and can affect very young children.

More importantly, this new model utilizes nonadapted wild-type Ebolaviruses. Here, in a proof-of-concept study, we infected ferrets with different variants of the closely related Marburg and Ravn viruses using different doses and routes of exposure. Although ferrets produced a neutralizing humoral response to challenge, we did not observe disease or viremia in any animal. The lack of disease in ferrets underscores the notion that differential mechanisms to immunity among filoviruses exist and may provide a model to better understand how differences contribute to disease..

Antihelminthic drugs have diverse chemical structures, mechanisms of action, and properties. Most were discovered by empiric screening methods. Many act against specific parasites, and few are devoid of significant toxicity to host cells. In addition to the direct toxicity of the drugs, reactions to dead and dying parasites may cause serious toxicity in patients. In the text that follows, the drugs are divided into 3 groups on the basis of the type of helminth primarily affected (nematodes, trematodes, and cestodes). The drugs of choice and alternative agents for selected important helminthic infections are listed in Table 53-1. ...

When no homology was found with a BLASTx [x] against non-redundant sequences in the public database, BLASTn optimised for highly similar sequences (megablast) [n (h)] was conducted against sequences in database. If no similarity obtained from n (h), then BLASTn optimised for somewhat similar sequences (blastn) [n (s)] was performed. If multiple significant similarities matched with a single cDNA (sequence consensus), only the highest scoring hit was included in the table. Library 1a and 1b were produced from the first SHH trial with amplicon size of 270 bp and 200 bp, respectively. Library 2a was constructed from the second SSH trial with amplicon size of 200 bp. Library 3a, 3b and 3c were constructed from the third SSH trial with amplicon size of 450 bp, 350 bp, and 300 bp respectively. All these bands (amplicons) were cut, purified and cloned to construct the libraries. Library 1, 2 and 3 were constructed from the first, second and third SSH trial respectively, directly purified and inserted ...

Newborn baby lethargy, Po mom should be wary of hypoglycemia - the birth of newborn babies and mothers of the Sohu after the baby seems to have only one state: eat sleep, eat sleep. Indeed, such a baby is very good, but the mother should also know that the baby must wake up after 3 hours of sleep to breastfeed, or there may be hypoglycemia. So what is the baby hypoglycemia? How does it affect the baby? Why baby baby feeding interval can not be more than 3 hours? Neonatal hypoglycemia is mostly asymptomatic. The early time showed lethargy and feeding difficulties, it may appear hypotonia, apnea, paroxysmal cyanosis, may also be manifested as irritability, tremors, convulsions. In particular, when the baby is initially manifested as drowsiness, is very easy to be ignored. Therefore, in order to avoid the occurrence of neonatal hypoglycemia, we ask the baby to be born after the feeding interval of not more than 3 hours. What harm does newborn hypoglycemia have? Neonatal hypoglycemia refers to the ...

Roger Frate Sr., a Darien lobsterman, said state environmental officials and others have discounted the notion that pesticides caused a precipitous die-off of lobsters, attributing the cause to other factors, such as high water temperatures and low levels of dissolved oxygen in Long Island Sound. A new piece of legislation drafted and approved by the General Assemblys Environment Committee would ban methoprene and resmethrin, two pesticides that can harm marine life, while allowing their use to kill mosquitoes and their larvae if the state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection determines it necessary to limit the spread of West Nile virus. While a similar ban died in the House of Representatives last session, state Rep. Terry Backer, D-Stratford, and state Sen. Edward Meyer, D-Guilford, said they believe the legislation to control use of resmethrin and methoprene has momentum because of an ongoing study launched last fall because small accumulations of the harmful chemicals were detected

Common Name: Green sea turtle. Latin Name: Chelonia mydas. Size/weight: Green turtles are the largest of all the hard-shelled sea turtles. They can grow up to 4 feet long and 400+ pounds.. Range: Tropical and sub-tropical waters around the world. In the western Atlantic, as far north as Massachusetts (including Long Island Sound) in summers. Nesting occurs in over 80 countries.. Habitat: Primarily coastal areas, where theyll find the plants they eat. Diet: Adult green turtles are unique among sea turtles in that they eat only plants; they are herbivorous, feeding primarily on seagrasses and algae. This diet is thought to give them greenish-colored fat, from which they take their name.. Predators: Newly hatched turtles are vulnerable to everything from raccoons and gulls to crabs and large fish. Some sharks may prey on adult sea turtles.. Read more ... ...

Lyme disease is the most common vector-borne disease in North America. Since it was first described in the 1970s, the disease has rapidly spread across New England and the Midwest. Reported cases of Lyme disease have more than tripled since 1995 and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) now estimate that more than 300,000 Americans fall ill each year.. The team turned to genomics to reveal the bacteriums origins. By comparing B. burgdorferi genomes collected from different areas and over a 30-year period, the team built an evolutionary tree and reconstructed the history of the pathogens spread.. Researchers collected deer ticks, vectors of B. burgdorferi, from across New England. They focused sampling efforts in areas predicted to be sources of the epidemic - Cape Cod and areas around Long Island Sound. Over 7,000 ticks were collected from these areas during the summer of 2013. To extend the spatial scope of the study, collaborators in the South, Midwest, and across Canada ...

Today, Feathered Quill reviewer Holly Connors is talking with Mark Seth Lender (Author) and Valerie Elaine Pettis (Illustrator) of Smeagull the Seagull - A True Story.. FQ: I LOVE the video on your website of Smeagull coming up to your door and knocking! (readers, be sure to check it out at https://www.smeagulltheseagull.com/about). Would you tell us a little about the first time Smeagull came to visit? Any idea how/why he started to visit?. MARK : We first encountered Smeagull sharing birdseed we put out for the migratory mallards who pass through Long Island Sound in early winter. But Smeagull was only eating the corn and only the whole kernels. The next time I saw him he was only eating the sunflower seeds - but only the ones still in their shells. Obviously, a character. I started bringing back scraps from Star Market, our local fish store which of course, Smeagull much preferred to birdseed. He very quickly figured us out - when we woke in the morning, what room we were in, the sound of my ...

TY - JOUR. T1 - Evaluation of management strategies for reducing nitrogen loadings to four US estuaries. AU - Whitall, D.. AU - Castro, M.. AU - Driscoll, C.. PY - 2004/10/15. Y1 - 2004/10/15. N2 - In this study we used the Watershed Assessment Tool for Evaluating Reduction Strategies for Nitrogen (WATERSN) model to evaluate a variety of management strategies for reducing nitrogen (N) loads to four US east coast estuaries: Casco Bay, Long Island Sound, Chesapeake Bay and Pamlico Sound. These management strategies encompass reductions in atmospheric emissions and deposition of N from sources including, fossil fuel burning utility emissions and mobile NOx emissions, N treatment in wastewater and controls on agricultural N inputs. We find that in primarily urban watersheds biological removal of N in wastewater treatment produces the greatest reduction in N loading (32-57% reductions), while in less urban watersheds, reductions in agricultural loading are more effective (5-56% reductions) in ...

The General Assembly this month unanimously approved a bill requiring the state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection to maintain an online map illustrating the scope and effect of anticipated sewage overflows and to notify the public when unexpected spills occur. Residents approached him with worries over the citys beaches and shellfish beds after the sewage treatment plant received a notice of violation from the DEEP for releasing 43 million gallons of partially treated water into Long Island Sound last October. Heavy rainfall increases the flow of water into sewer lines, and sometimes leads to bypasses as treatment plants become overwhelmed by the sharp spike in volume. Under the recently approved legislation, the DEEP must show where sewage spills are expected during heavy rain and how far resulting contamination will reach. The department already maintains an interactive map tracking the states foliage; Greci said the same technology can likely be applied to the sewage spill map.

I sat rocking in the dirt, my hands pressed to my eye. I could feel the throb of my pulse surging out from the eye like the waves from a rock dropped into still water. Tears were building in the eye and it made me angry. If the other kids saw the tears Id never hear the end of it. Young minds lacking education are always quick to mercilessness, ignorance substituting cruelty for understanding. Id been hit with a baseball. It was a direct hit, thrown at some sixty miles an hour by one of the bigger kids in the Saturday afternoon sports my parents made me go to. I hated going, I wasnt that good at organized sports, preferring instead to get my exercise climbing the rocks by the water in front of my home. Or by swimming in the waters of Long Island Sound or maybe just riding my bike. But I didnt think much of the baseball, basketball and football that my parents jammed into my Saturday afternoons. As if to prove my point, I was nursing what would become a black eye, already the skin cells were ...

Once all of the oysters have been harvested from an area none will return unless put there purposefully, so oystermen continued to move farther from shore. Fishing dredges, which had been invented in Europe in the 14th century, were repurposed for oyster harvesting in Long Island Sound. Peter Decker, a Norwalk oysterman, in 1874 introduced the steam-powered dredger, which increased the rate of harvest from about 25 bushels per day by sail to 20 times that much. Not only did these iron mesh contraptions dramatically increase the number of harvested oysters, they also had environmental consequences for the sea floor because they disrupted the habitat for other organisms and stirred up sediment that could choke remaining oysters.. The threat of over-fishing was recognized early. By the middle of the 18th century, the Connecticut General Assembly passed laws that allowed shoreline towns to control oyster fishing. In 1762 the city of New Haven passed a local law making it illegal to take oysters in ...
