Alumni Pool Added by admin, last update: August 17, 2012, 12:43 pmLocation 6 Vassar Street Cambridge, MA 42° 21' 41.6016" N, 71° 5' 25.8432" W See map: Google Maps Javascript is required to view this map.Identity of Building / SitePrimary classification: Education (EDC)Secondary classification: Federal, State, or Local Designation(s) and Date(s): History of Building/SiteOriginal Brief: Dates: Commission / Completion:Designed 1939, completed 1940.Architectural and other Designer(s): Laurence Bernhart Anderson and Herbet Lynes Beckwith, architects.Others associated with Building/Site: James Holt, mechanical engineer; Walter C. Voss, materials engineer; Donald W. Taylor; soil conditions; Kenneth C. Reynolds, hydraulics; Thomas R. Camp, filtration system; Parry Moon, lighting designerSignificant Alteration(s) with Date(s): Current Use: Swimming/aquatics.Current Condition: Fair. The building once sat at a "back" court on the campus, and stood as the most significant structure in the court. The construction of the nearby Compton Lab and Dorrance Lab (also designed by Beckwith), along with other buildings has completely shrouded the pool, and significantly altered the context and the purpose of the once-walled Class of 1923 garden. The garden, on the south side of the pool, was originally intended for sunbathing, and only portions of the east and west walls remain.General Description:The building is a two-story, steel-frame, flat-roof structure. Clad in yellow brick on three sides, its most striking feature is the wall of glass on the south elevation. Two small blocks are stepped away from the building's main volume at the northwest corner. A block containing coaching offices and a smaller entrance lobby distort the otherwise rectangular form of the structure. Inside, the building consists of a 125 feet-long room, containing the main, six-lane, 42-by-74 feet pool and a secondary, 20-by-40 feet practice pool. There is a gallery with seating for approximately 340. As originally planned, shower and locker rooms for men are located on the first floor, with women's changing rooms and showers on the second.Construction Period:Steel-frame construction, clad in brick and glass.Original Physical Context:Although the original context has been significantly altered by later buildings, Alumni Pool was intended as the centerpiece of a "back" court on the MIT campus, and envisioned by the architects to be a nucleus of a much-larger athlectic complex. The placement of the main pool volume is such that the south elevation's large wall of glass was orignally a natural-light source for the pool, and the adjacent walled garden served as an outdoor sunbathing location in the summer months. As part of the construction of the Stata Center, designed by Frank Gehry, and scheduled for completion in 2003, required the demolition of later (1943, and 1955) additions to the pool.EvaluationTechnical Evaluation:The building was designed to best meet the functional needs of the swimming pool, offices, and bleachers, and therefore adhers to the modern-movement tenet of form following fuction.Social:Intended to serve the athletic needs of the MIT campus, and planned as part of a larger program to improve athletic facilites at MIT. "Second unit in the Institute's program for better facilities for building the man as well as the mind, the new structure is the fist unit of the great recreational center planned for the future." Cultural & Aesthetic:Along with the adjcent Briggs Field House, also designed by Anderson and Beckwith and completed in 1939, Alumni Pool is recognized as one of the first buildings on a college campus built in the modern style. The pool's two-dimensional grid pattern of the glass-and-steel frame is an early example of what will later become a hallmark of Anderson and Beckwith's so-called I-Style Modernism, as defined by Henry-Russell Hitchcock and Philip Johnson.Historical:The building represents a collaboration between several alumni of MIT. Both Anderson and Beckwith, the architects, graduated from the Institute's School of Architecture in 1930 and 1926, respectively, and served on the School's faculty. In 1937, Anderson and Beckwith formed a firm with William E. Haible, although neither Haible nor the firm is credited with any involvement with Alumni Pool. In 1965 Anderson was appointed dean of the School of Architecture and held that position until 1972. Several of the building's engineers and consultants were also MIT alumni and faculty: James Holt, 1919, associate professor of Mechanical Engineering; Walter C. Voss, 1932, Head of the (then) newly formed Department of Building Engineering and Construction; Donald W. Taylor, 1934, Assistant Professor of Soil Mechanics; Kenneth C. Reynolds, 1925, Associate Professor of Hydraulics; Thomas R. Camp, 1925, Associate Professor of Sanitary Engineering; and Parry Moon, 1927, Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering.General Assessment:At the time of the structure's completion in 1940, Alumni Pool was judged as "second to none in ability to serve the purpose for which it was designed." The materials selected for construction represented the most economical and efficient products available. Such features included tempered glass, special acousic materials, and double glazing, and radiant heating in the pool-deck tiles.DocumentationText references:Orginal plans for the building remain in the archives of the MIT Facilities Department.

Posted on May 08, 2010 | Jim Hughes The Badass Tap: Release The Kraken!!! Kraken (krãkn). 1755. [-Norw. kraken (n is the suffixed def. art.).] A mythical sea-monster of enormous size, said to have been seen at times off the coast of Norway.Kraken (krãkn). 2010. A mythical beer monster of enormous flavour, said to have been seen in Texas in the early 21st century.+++++++++++++++++++++Y'know, two of the biggest reasons to be glad about living in central Texas right now are 1) the fantastic breweries and brewpubs we have here, and 2) the prospective breweries in various stages of development (five... or is it six... at the last count), plus the Black Star Co-op. Now that's what I call an embarrassment of riches!Up there with the best of them is Real Ale Brewing in Blanco. Not only do they make our house beer (Drafthouse ESB, and if you haven't tried it yet... why not?) but also our biggest selling draft beer - Fireman's #4. They also make a fantastic range of seasonal beers, from Coffee Porter to Devil's Backbone Tripel to Oktoberfest to Lost Gold IPA to Phoenixx Double ESB, not forgetting Sisyphus Barley Wine. Yum.Recently they've been experimenting with barrel-ageing several of their beers to give them extra layers of flavour and aroma, and in the past few weeks some of these beers have been making an appearance around Austin.We've got ourselves a keg of Barrel-Aged Sisyphus Barley Wine, which Real Ale have named The Kraken. Now, Sisyphus is a pretty damn good beer to start with, but this is the '08 release so it's already two years old, and Real Ale have put some of it in French oak barrels and some of it in American oak barrels, both of which previously held red wine. They left it there for three months, blended it and kegged it, and now you and I have a chance to sample it.I could try to describe The Kraken but I don't think I have words to justify its qualities. All I can say is that the oak and the red wine are both prominent, overlaying the already delicious Sisyphus. It's one of the best beers I've tasted.I have to warn you that this is the most expensive beer we've ever had in our walk-in, pint for pint; even more than that keg of... well, that's for another time. So we're going to serve this one in half pints, and I'll give you a heads up that it'll be $8.00 a glass. Not cheap, I know, but it's so worth it, at least for one glass-worth. It would have been cool if we'd had this one on tap during Clash of the Titans but we just couldn't get it in time. Ah well, you win some you lose some. It's a damn fine beer either way.Jim Hughes, Head Beer Nerd, Alamo South Lamar “If I had all the money I’ve spent on drink… I’d spend it on drink.” ~ Sir Henry Rawlinson News Categories: General News, Austin

Plans just part of the puzzle Apr 25, 2013 | 2897 views | 1 | 417 | | Community leaders and business people around the region have been meeting this week to offer input on a comprehensive economic development strategy plan. The idea is to develop a document that can be used to help rebuild the economy in Windham County. Putting together plans is great. The CEDS plan is one more tool in the box, something that can help guide municipalities, grant writers, and planners. We can add it to the numerous other studies and plans that have been developed over the past few years. They are all valuable resources and should not be discounted for what they are. But what we really need is investment, by entrepreneurs and developers willing to open up their checkbooks and double down on Windham County in general and the Deerfield Valley in particular. It wouldn’t be the first time. The region has seen booms before, with the industrial development brought about by the “Hoot, Toot, and Whistle” railroad in the late 1800s and early 1900s and the ski resort expansion of the 1960s, ‘70s, and ‘80s. Money was pumped into the region, jobs were created, and real growth took place. That’s what we need again today, and we need it in a sustainable way, rather than a boom and bust cycle. That investment can come in the form of existing businesses expanding, or new businesses moving into the area. Working together is important. Business and communities need to move beyond the mentality of “my neighbor is my competitor” and understand the real competition may be across the country or halfway around the world. Businesses need to support one another. Government needs to support its business community and find ways to encourage business development and expansion, not discourage it. A key component of any economic development plan is to raise the standard of living for those who are already here. It’s great to talk about creating jobs, but we can’t lose focus on the ones that are already here. Training and opportunity for personal growth have to be encouraged and fostered. Another key item is to foster cooperative attitudes between employer and employee, and the public in general. Making a profit shouldn’t be considered a sin. Businesses should be encouraged to make a fair profit, and management should be willing to share that success with their employees. A good, responsible business should realize that it is built by the efforts of its staff. That’s the essence of a strong economy. Economic development can mean many things to many people, but it all boils down to sustainability, to creating jobs, and keeping or infusing money into the region. For those things to take place, we all have to shoulder some of the load. We can’t just develop a plan and then wait for someone else to make it happen. Copyright 2014 Deerfield Valley News.

Details about the Spring 2013 course you selectedSubject:FilmTitle:FILM-140 American Cinema/American Culture - (SC) - 3 UnitsInstructor:O'Neill, BNote: Online course. Meets also on Tuesdays, 1/29, 2/26, 3/26, 4/23, and 5/14, from 6:30-9:20 pm, in SRC E230 on the SRC campus. Go to www.dvc.edu/online for course access information. FILM-140 T6:30-9:20pmSRC-E230 FILM-140 American Cinema/American Culture This course is a history of cinema focusing on the development of American film making as part of a larger cultural context including literature, drama, various genres, vaudeville and related art forms. The course will investigate the interplay of economic, industrial, aesthetic, and cultural forces that shape the language of film - how film conveys meaning and functions as a work of art. Other themes to be explored include how Hollywood functions as a business, reflects societal values and concerns (such as the Great Depression and WWII), and responds to new technologies such as radio, television, and the coming of sound for film.

easternblot.net science and other interesting things Expression Patterns (archived from Nature Network) Musisci Musicians and Scientists Tag Archives: borodin Leave a reply The logo of this blog is the same erlenmeyer flask used on my easternblot blog, but half-morphed into a treble clef. It symbolizes the science/music connection, but could easily have been the personal logo of Alexander Borodin. The erlenmeyer flask was invented by German chemist Emil Erlenmeyer in 1861. Around this same time, from 1859 to 1862, Erlenmeyer was also supervisor to Alexander Borodin, who did a postdoctoral fellowship in Erlenmeyer’s lab. Borodin was a prolific chemist, who got his name in chemistry textbooks as one of the discoverers of the aldol reaction, but in his spare time he was a composer. He managed to be in touch with prominent people in both fields: Aside from working with Erlenmeyer, Borodin was also friends with Mendeleev – the inventor of the periodic table – and with composer Rimsky-Korsakov. The latter completed Borodin’s opera Prince Igor after he died in 1887, at a fancy dress party, from a burst artery in the heart. Borodin considered himself mostly a chemist, and didn’t think much of his musical work. He referred to himself as a “Sunday composer”, but these days he is better known for his music than for his science. In 1953 he was posthumously awarded a Tony Award for the musical Kismet, which was based on his original scores. Some of Borodin’s most famous works are the Polovtsian Dances from Prince Igor and the Nocturne from his String Quartet No. 2 in D. Mikhail Fokine’s choreography for the Polovtsian Dances by Borodin, as performed by the Kirov Opera and Ballet under Valery Gergiev.

Who do you think is a good science role model? via Alex Ruiz on G+ Love the quote, but not sure I agree with the examples. I don’t mean to say they’re not great in their own right, but I would say there’s a difference between scientists and science communicators, just like there’s a difference between musicians and those who talk or write about music. Some do both sides, of course, but I think science and science communication are already valued differently. The best scientists have almost no public profile at all, and I think that’s what Greene’s quote is about.04/11/14asapscience: via Neurons want food 04/10/14Tagsart Etsy Wednesday leaving the lab old music blog scio13wp scioAlt sciox solo13 squishy cow Old sites Australia 2009 travel blog easternblot (science blog 2005 – 2010)

Directory Kids MonkMusic, Sequestered in Northwest By Jennifer Landes | December 1, 2011 - 12:13pm When she’s not recording the music of others, Ms. Daniels performs her own. Cynthia Daniels has a voice meant for radio. Low in timbre, rich and melodic, it soothes the ears like warm buttered rum. Her radio shows, “MonkMusic Radio” and “On the Air at Crossroads,” showcase East End musicians playing and talking about their music. Tomorrow, those musicians will join her and her co-host Bonnie Grice at Guild Hall at a fund-raising event for it and WPPB 88.3FM, the Southampton public radio station that broadcasts her shows. Describing the event as well as her life’s work and the genesis of her new recording studio she calls MonkMusic on Nov. 15, Ms. Daniels’s voice was particularly resonant in the warmth and silence of her studio, where the pelt of cold rain outside could be seen but not heard. On the approach to her house in the Northwest area of East Hampton, the only indication of the studio’s presence is a small sign over the doorway. Low and wood-clad to blend in with the wooded surroundings, it is a house appurtenance that could be anything but is in fact a state-of-the-art facility with maximal impact in a minimal 650-square-foot space. The studio was designed by John Storyk, who began his career designing Electric Lady Studios for Jimi Hendrix in 1969 and has since gone on to design some 3,000 studios around the world. His client list includes Alicia Keys, Green Day, Bruce Springsteen, and the Ross School. Ms. Daniels’s studio was completed in August. The space, she said, is the culmination of everything she has been working for since she first knew she wanted to be a recording engineer as a teenager. She went to Boston University and received a film degree, but summers were spent at the Institute for Audio Research in New York City, one of the few schools at the time that offered instruction for recording engineers. “Then I got in on the ground floor of a large recording studio,” working for Phil Ramone who recorded Grammy-winning music for Billy Joel, scores for “giant films,” and many other musicians such as James Taylor. “I learned how I now train people, from the bottom up,” she said. For her, that means “sharpening pencils, bringing tapes, and keeping your mouth shut, and watching the greats.” She continues to work with some of the clients she met in those early days in New York City. With gray-blue walls, the color of the North Atlantic and sandy-color stained-wood floors, “it’s pretty and acoustically perfect,” she said of her studio. A pin could drop on the carpet and still be heard, yet in the two soundproof booths that flank the main studio, loud rock music is inaudible with the doors closed. Both booths can be opened to form one large studio. Or vocalists or certain instruments can be isolated within them. It is a pretty impressive space, where the sound is “not too live, not too dead,” she said, clapping her hands to demonstrate her point. Her East Hampton guestbook both here and in a previous studio space in her house has included Alec Baldwin, Blythe Danner, Paul McCartney, Steve Martin, Kelsey Grammer, Liev Schreiber, Mercedes Ruehl, Lorraine Bracco, and Roy Scheider. She has recorded albums for Nancy Atlas and in the new space for Joe Delia and Inda Eaton. She has also mixed music for Chaka Khan there. Her other recording credits are too numerous to name, but she has a surprising mix of genres including caberet standards, Broadway cast albums, classical compositions, and more. She became an East Hampton full-timer they way most people do, expanding her weekends until just a couple of days were spent in the city per week and then none. This summer she was asked by a BBC producer to record an interview of Terry Smith, a financial analyst who summers here, to air first thing the next morning in England. She has a mobile rig for just this purpose. “I loaded up the rig in the car at 11 p.m. and went over to his house. They spoke on the telephone with his answers recorded by me.” She sent the recording electronically, “they married the two and had it on the air at 6 a.m.” Coordinated Umiversal Time. She has flown all over the country with her mobile devices and can record anywhere. Still, she likes it better at home with as many live performers in her studio as the project and space allow. “Bands like to play together and like to play together live. I made sure I had a space where that could happen and where they could see each other.” Since August, she has worked on three different projects with full bands. “I can’t bring an orchestra out here, nor do they want to come out on the Jitney,” she said with a laugh. Still, she finds the space perfect for her purposes: recording rock albums, mixing classical or popular music, voice-overs, and replacing dialogue in movies and television with new lines after a scene has been filmed. She even has surround-sound equipment and said she looks forward to using it for both music and film sound projects. Her cables and other wired connections are all through the ceiling and from her console. “There’s no chasing wires on the floor. I can engineer from all rooms as well. Any room can be my control room.” A closet that abuts the studio can serve as another recording booth and has the same cable setup through the wall. Not only are the rooms soundproofed, they have also been insulated from the sounds of things like heat and air-conditioning and computer fans. She has chosen chairs that don’t squeak and the walls are configured to absorb sound and return it in an amount and form to keep it lively and focused. The individual spaces are additionally isolated by climate. “They’re thermostatically separate. Alec loves it like a meat locker. I don’t.” Mr. Baldwin was in the studio to record a book on eye rhymes, words that are spelled similarly but are pronounced differently. Ms. Danner also worked on the project. The glass doors on the side of the building open out to the green of the woods, which can be seen from all of the separate spaces. “I love the open doors, but I have to be careful not to offend other people.” On the other hand, before she had this studio, “I had Julie Andrews in here recording and I was out begging the neighbor not to mow his lawn in the middle of the afternoon. I got tired of that.” She also tired of having sound interfere with her home life, so a thick door separates the studio space from her living quarters. She has a suite in her house for people to stay and a concierge service to provide more visiting artists with accommodations and other services they might desire. Her work is a balance of music and voice work, something necessary in this market. The days of the big record contract are over, but then again, “it was never that easy to begin with.” A select few made it and the rest sold records out of the back of their cars, building reputations on small gigs and word of mouth, which has become the acceptable norm today, she said. As the industry contracted, so have the studios, making her new venture the kind of downsized model that still succeeds in these times. “The business model has failed, but the music will continue.” About the Author Jennifer Landes Add New Comment by PJ Delia (not verified) | December 2, 2011 - 10:32am I can tell you from experience that Cynthia is very talented in her profession. Her skills and the studio she built have brought a magical space for music to our town. Thank you, CD! Login or register to post comments Tweets by @EHSt

Susan Kirby Susan's Bio Susan Kirby is the award-winning author of 37 books for children, teens and adults and has published many short stories and inspirational pieces over the past 20 years. Susan grew up in Funks Grove, Illinois, where her family continues to raise grain crops and make pure maple syrup. As a schoolgirl at Ben Funk Elementary, nearly all of her classmates lived on farms. The school, which has since gone the way of so many rural schools, was a wonderful school. Some of the friendships begun there have stood the test of time. The same is true of Susan's interest in writing. "As a student, I thought writing was easy for everyone. I was an adult before I recognized it as a God-given talent." Susan and her husband, Ron, live in McLean, Illinois, a small town a few miles south of the woodlands skirting the family farm. She appreciates small-town life almost as much as her childhood on the farm, and credits the work ethic of the heartland for the tenacity so necessary for finding her niche in publishing. Susan frequently draws on her rural background and upon local history for many of her stories. "It's great when parents share family history with children the way my father did. He planted seeds in my imagination that continue to bear fruit today in 'novel' ways! I pray for my readers as I write, looking ahead to that eternal family reunion when we will meet face to face, each with a story of how we became children of our Heavenly Father and most high God."

Colbert, Galifianakis top list of Webby Award nomineesBy Doug Gross, CNN Who deserves a Webby?STORY HIGHLIGHTS Nominees for the 2010 Webby Awards announced Tuesday morning Actor Zach Galifianakis, comedian Stephen Colbert, New York Times top the list "David After Dentist," a YouTube hit, competes with four others in Viral Video category Awards will be handed out June 14 and will feature five-word acceptance speeches YouTube Inc. (CNN) -- Actor-comedian Zach Galifianakis, funny man Stephen Colbert, a blog about sometimes-regrettable text messages and the New York Times' Web site top the list of nominees for the 2010 Webby Awards. The venerable -- at least by Internet standards -- awards announced finalists for the honor Tuesday morning. Prizes, decided by judges including Martha Stewart and David Bowie, will be handed out June 14 on the final day of Internet Week in New York. Other nominees include Twitter, Hulu, The Onion and a video featuring science greats Carl Sagan and Stephen Hawking. Who would be your winner at the Webby Awards? The Webby Awards honor excellence on the Internet, from serious news sites to silly videos. Nominees are named in four categories: Web sites, interactive advertising, online film and video, and the mobile Web. The emergence of mobile technology was evident among nominees for the 14th annual awards. "Rage," a Web movie starting Hollywood heavy hitters Jude Law, Eddie Izzard and Judi Dench, was nominated in the Best Online Film category. "Rage" is the first feature film to premier on mobile phones. Other nominees from the mobile world include networking sites Twitter and Foursquare, and Texts From Last Night, a blog featuring funny, awkward or just plain weird text messages. See a complete list of Webby Awards nominees. Galifianakis, best known for his roles in movies like "The Hangover" and "Youth in Revolt," is nominated in the Comedy: Longform or Series category for "Between Two Ferns," his talk show on humor site Funny or Die that has featured such guests as Charlize Theron and Ben Stiller. "The more and more talented people who start to participate, I think it's a recognition of Internet media and how important it is -- and also how accessible it is for consumers," said David-Michel Davies, director of the Webbys. "I think that's the reason these talented actors and actresses and directors are responding to it." Competing with "David After Dentist" -- a YouTube hit in which a father records his son's loopy reaction to anesthesia -- for the Viral Video award are "Auto-Tune the News," "Lindsay Lohan's E-Harmony Profile," "Love Project Music Video" and "The Muppets: Bohemian Rhapsody." The New York Times led the field with 15 nominations, followed by the BBC with nine and College Humor and The Onion with six each. The public also will be able to vote online for The Webby People's Voice Awards. Deadline for voting is April 29. The Webbys are presented by the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences, which includes Web experts, business figures and celebrities plus former nominees and other Internet professionals. The awards ceremony is known for its promotion of brevity: Winners are limited to five-word acceptance speeches. That's led to some classic lines, including Al Gore's "Please don't recount this vote" and late-night TV host Jimmy Fallon's "Thank God Conan got promoted."

MSE Home Home » Alumni Spotlights Spencer Bean McKay School alumnus honored with Presidential Award in Mathematics According to Spencer Bean, a McKay School alumnus who recently received the 2011 Presidential Award for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching, there is no such thing as a “math person,” just people who have had positive and negative experiences with math. “I reject the idea that someone is a math person or not,” Spencer said. “I believe that everyone can progress in math; the struggle is [knowing] where they are, and how I [can] help them progress from there.” Spencer, has been teaching at the Defense Department’s Baumholder Middle-High School in Germany for the past eight years.

I want to have 4 gb of memory but don't want to spend $400 on the upgrade from apple. Can anyone recommend a different brand or type of memory that will do the same job yet be more cost efficient??? Was also wondering if someone could lead me to a good resource that would teach me how to set it up for better performance. Thanks! I am getting the latest Macbook as well.. I want 4 gigs as well. I already have the RAM. I think the company is Transcend._________________A Charity Pantomime in aid of Paranoid Schizophrenics descended into chaos yesterday when someone shouted, "He's behind you!"

International Olympiad in Informatics The logo of the International Olympiad in Informatics The International Olympiad in Informatics (IOI) is an annual competitive programming competition for secondary school students. The first IOI was held in 1989 in Pravetz, Bulgaria. The contest consists of two days computer programming, solving problems of an algorithmic nature. To deal with problems involving very large amounts of data, it is necessary to have not only programmers, "but also creative coders, who can dream up what it is that the programmers need to tell the computer to do ... the hard part isn't the programming, but the mathematics underneath it."[1] Students at the IOI compete on an individual basis, with up to four students competing from each participating country (with 81 countries in 2012). Students in the national teams are selected through national computing contests, such as the Australian Informatics Olympiad, British Informatics Olympiad, and Bundeswettbewerb Informatik (Germany). The International Olympiad in Informatics is one of the most prestigious computer science competitions in the world. UNESCO and IFIP are patrons. 1 Competition structure and participation 2 List of IOI websites and locations 3 Multiple IOI winners Competition structure and participation[edit] IOI 2009's banner above the competition room On each of the two competition days, the students are typically given three problems which they have to solve in five hours. Each student works on his/her own, with only a computer and no other help allowed, specifically no communication with other contestants, books etc. Usually to solve a task the contestant has to write a computer program (in C, C++ or Pascal, and occasionally FORTRAN and PHP ) and submit it before the five hour competition time ends. The program is graded by being run with secret test data. From IOI 2010, tasks are divided into subtasks with graduated difficulty, and points are awarded only when all tests for a particular subtask yield correct results, within specific time and memory limits. In some cases, the contestant's program has to interact with a secret computer library, which allows problems where the input is not fixed, but depends on the program's actions – for example in game problems. Another type of problem has known inputs which are publicly available already during the five hours of the contest. For these, the contestants have to submit an output file instead of a program, and it is up to them whether they obtain the output files by writing a program (possibly exploiting special characteristics of the input), or by hand, or by a combination of these means. IOI 2010 for the first time had a live web scoreboard with real-time provisional results. Submissions will be scored as soon as possible during the contest, and the results posted. Contestants will be aware of their scores, but not others', and may resubmit to improve their scores. The scores from the two competition days and all problems are summed up separately for each contestant. At the awarding ceremony, contestants are awarded medals depending on their relative total score. The top 50% of the contestants are awarded medals, such that the relative number of gold : silver : bronze : no medal is approximately 1:2:3:6 (thus 1/12 of the contestants get a gold medal).

Minnesota's congressional districts (Redirected from Minnesota Congressional Districts) Minnesota's congressional districts since 2013 Minnesota currently has eight congressional districts. There were 9th and 10th districts but they were eliminated in 1963 and 1933 respectively. Redistricting is done every 10 years to reflect population shifts. Minnesota statutes do not require candidates for the United States House of Representatives to reside in the district in which they run for office, but candidates must be inhabitants of the state at the time of the election.[1][2] 1 Districts 2 Federal representation 2.1 Gallery of members of the U.S. Senate 2.2 Gallery of members of the U.S. House of Representatives 3 Historical district boundaries Districts[edit] Districts were re-drawn in 2012. The 2010 elections determined the officials for the 2011–2013 term using 2002 districts, while the 2012 elections used the new districts. The 2002–2012 districts are described below: Minnesota's 1st congressional district extends across southern Minnesota from the border with South Dakota to the border of Wisconsin. Minnesota's 2nd congressional district spans the width of the entire southern metro area and contains Dakota, Carver, Scott, Le Sueur, Goodhue and Rice Counties. Minnesota's 3rd congressional district encompasses the suburbs of Hennepin County to the north, west, and south of Minneapolis. Minnesota's 4th congressional district covers most of Ramsey County including all of St. Paul and several St. Paul subu

(Redirected from NSY) For other uses, see Scotland Yard (disambiguation). "NSY" redirects here. For other uses, see NSY (disambiguation). The famous revolving sign outside the current New Scotland Yard, located in the Victoria area of London. Scotland Yard (officially New Scotland Yard) is a metonym for the headquarters of the Metropolitan Police Service, the territorial police force responsible for policing most of London. The name derives from the location of the original Metropolitan Police headquarters at 4 Whitehall Place, which had a rear entrance on a street called Great Scotland Yard.[1] The Scotland Yard entrance became the public entrance to the police station, and over time the street and the Metropolitan Police became synonymous. The New York Times wrote in 1964 that just as Wall Street gave its name to New York's financial district, Scotland Yard became the name for police activity in London.[2] The force moved away from Great Scotland Yard in 1890, and the name New Scotland Yard was adopted for subsequent headquarters. The current New Scotland Yard is located on Broadway (51°29′55″N 0°07′59″W / 51.49861°N 0.13305°W / 51.49861; -0.13305 (New Scotland Yard (current, third location))Coordinates: 51°29′55″N 0°07′59″W / 51.49861°N 0.13305°W / 51.49861; -0.13305 (New Scotland Yard (current, third location))) in Victoria and has been the Metropolitan Police's headquarters since 1967. In 2013, it was announced that the force will move to a smaller building on the Victoria Embankment in 2015, which will be renamed Scotland Yard.[3] 1.1 New Scotland Yard 1.2 Move back to the Embankment Commonly known as the Met, the Metropolitan Police Service is responsible for law enforcement within Greater London, excluding the square mile of the City of London, which is covered by the City of London Police. Additionally, the London Underground and National Rail networks are the responsibility of the British Transport Police. The Metropolitan Police was formed by Robert Peel with the implementation of the Metropolitan Police Act, passed by Parliament in 1829.[1] Peel, with the help of Eugène-François Vidocq, selected the original site on Whitehall Place for the new police headquarters. The first two commissioners, Charles Rowan and Richard Mayne, along with various police officers and staff, occupied the building. Previously a private house, 4 Whitehall Place (51°30′22″N 0°07′34″W / 51.50598°N 0.12609°W / 51.50598; -0.12609 (Original Scotland Yard - 4 Whitehall Place)) backed onto a street called Great Scotland Yard. The original New Scotland Yard, now called the Norman Shaw Buildings By 1887, the Met headquarters had expanded from 4 Whitehall Place into several neighbouring addresses, including 3, 5, 21 and 22 Whitehall Place; 8 and 9 Great Scotland Yard, and several stables.[1] Eventually, the service outgrew its original site, and new headquarters were built (51°30′08″N 0°07′29″W / 51.50222°N 0.12463°W / 51.50222; -0.12463 (New Scotland Yard - Norman Shaw North Building (second location))) on the Victoria Embankment, overlooking the River Thames, south of what is now the Ministry of Defence's headquarters. In 1888, during the construction of the new building, workers discovered the dismembered torso of a female; the case, known as the 'Whitehall Mystery', was never solved. In 1890, police headquarters moved to the new location, which was named New Scotland Yard. By this time, the Met had grown from its initial 1,000 officers to about 13,000 and needed more administrative staff and a bigger headquarters. Further increases in the size and responsibilities of the force required even more administrators, and in 1907 and 1940, New Scotland Yard was extended further (51°30′07″N 0°07′28″W / 51.50183°N 0.12446°W / 51.50183; -0.12446 (Norman Shaw South Building (extension to New Scotland Yard))). This complex is now a Grade I listed structure known as the Norman Shaw Buildings. The original building at 4 Whitehall Place still has a rear entrance on Great Scotland Yard. Stables for some of the mounted branch are still located at 7 Great Scotland Yard, across the street from the first headquarters. New Scotland Yard[edit] By the 1960s the requirements of modern technology and further increases in the size of the force meant that it had outgrown its Victoria Embankment site. In 1967 New Scotland Yard moved to the present building on Broadway, which was an existing office block acquired under a long-term lease; the first New Scotland Yard is now partly used as the base for the Met's Territorial Support Group. The current New Scotland Yard building in Victoria Street The Met's senior management team, who oversee the service, is based at New Scotland Yard at 10 Broadway, close to St. James's Park station, along with the Met's crime database. This uses a national computer system developed for major crime enquiries by all British forces, called Home Office Large Major Enquiry System, more commonly referred to by its acronym HOLMES, which recognises the great fictional detective Sherlock Holmes. The training programme is called 'Elementary', after Holmes's well-known, yet apocryphal, phrase "elementary, my dear Watson". Administrative functions are based at the Empress State Building,

St Bartholomew-the-Less St Bartholomew the Less Exterior of St Bartholomew the Less Diocese of London Vicar(s) Dr Martin Dudley CC FSA (Rector of Great St Barts) St Bartholomew-the-Less is an Anglican church in the City of London. It is the official church of St Bartholomew's Hospital[1] and is located within the hospital grounds. 2 Notable people associated with the church The present church is the latest in a series of churches and chapels associated with the hospital over the past 800 years. Its earliest predecessor, known as the Chapel of the Holy Cross, was founded nearby in 1123 before moving to the present site in 1184.[2] Along with most other religious foundations the hospital was dissolved by Henry VIII. It was then re-founded by the king, and the chapel became a parish church for those living within its precincts.[3] Its suffix, "the less", was given to distinguish it from its senior neighbour, St Bartholomew the Great. The church's tower and west end are 15th century, with two of its three bells dating from 1380 and 1420. They hang within an original medieval

FishWisePro resource Last updated 12 months ago FishWisePro is a comprehensive, fully relational fish database of over 100 000 scientific species name combinations and just over 34,000 fish pictures. It has been specifically developed for Academics, Students, Marine Biologists, Authors, Ichthyologists and all other serious users interested in Fish. This is probably the only fully relational Fish database with referential integrity. Records can be found or grouped using extremely powerful user defined filters. As an example, it is possible to find out that Jack Randall has been involved in describing 722 valid species as at March 2012. Of these, 711 are salt water species. We can also find that Helen, his wife, has been involved in describing 7 species. It is an absolute doddle to find out how many valid species are in a particular family etc. The kids can even find out the scientific name combinations of the Disney fish characters and see pictures of the actual fish. The pictures filters are very useful for identifying species and the user can even group pictures of 2, 3 or more species types to make comparisons easier. The data has primarily been based on the work of Bill Eschmeyer and his colleagues at the California Academy of Sciences in their work on the "Catal

Sources: Ryan Dempster has suitors Updated: July 15, 2012, 7:22 PM ET CHICAGO -- After pitching six shutout innings Saturday in a 4-1 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks to extend his scoreless innings streak to 33, Chicago Cubs starter Ryan Dempster could not avoid questions about his seemingly inevitable departure from the organization. With a little more than two weeks until baseball's trade deadline, 10 teams have shown legitimate interest in acquiring Dempster's services for the remainder of the season, according to industry sources. Those clubs include the Los Angeles Dodgers, Cleveland Indians, Detroit Tigers, New York Yankees, Chicago White Sox and Atlanta Braves. Olney: Dempster Deal Beckons Ryan Dempster will soon be gone from the Cubs, at a time when he's throwing really well, because now is the best time to trade him, writes ESPN The Magazine's Buster Olney. Blog Major league sources said Sunday that the Tigers have asked about two other Cubs in starter Matt Garza and second baseman Darwin Barney.Garza certainly increased his value by throwing seven shutout innings against the Diamondbacks on Sunday. The Yankees, Toronto Blue Jays, Texas Rangers, Tigers, Dodgers and Pittsburgh Pirates all had scouts watching the righty.The Cubs have started, in earnest, to look at minor league players at the lower levels of almost every farm system. The organization is looking for young pitching in return for its veteran players, but according to a baseball source who has inquired about trading with the Cubs, a well regarded third-base prospect is also very high on their wish list. While Dempster's entire body of work this season has made him a valuable commodity, Saturday's start proved he can get hitters out without having his best command or arsenal of pitches. Dempster (5-3) allowed four hits and set a career best by winning his fifth straight start. He leads the majors with a 1.86 ERA. Dempster matched the scoreless innings mark by Ken Holtzman in 1969. It's the longest such streak in the majors this season, and according to Elias Sports Bureau, Dempster is the fifth pitcher in the last 100 years to win five straight starts in the same season without allowing a run. "You see a guy like that struggle with command and pace, (but) at the same time get all the important outs," an American League scout said. "Dempster makes it easy for me to call my GM and say, 'Get this guy now because he has such a great sense of how to get the job done (and) he will help you win each time he goes out there.' " As ESPNChicago.com previously reported, a major league source has indicated that an agreement between Theo Epstein and Dempster in a meeting that took place in early June assures the pitcher control of where he will play the rest of the season if he is traded. Dempster has 10-5 rights that allow him to veto any trade. ESPNChicago.com Cubs blog The latest Cubs news from ESPN Chicago. Blog After nearly nine seasons in Chicago, Saturday's start felt like the end of an era at Wrigley. Dempster, however, tried to approach it like any other outing."I really did not think of it that way, but there is that thought and that possibility (of a trade)," Dempster said. "At the same time, you kind of stay in the moment of pitching in the game."Teammates are aware that the affable team leader could be heading elsewhere very soon. "He was one of those guys that really helped me out when I came up to the big leagues," said Barney. "He is a leader and just a great guy to be around. When he is not throwing, he is always helping the team out because he is easy going and he is happy and he has a lot of fun. He is just that guy that would be tough to lose."With Saturday's win, Dempster improved to 5-3 on the season. His 1.86 ERA ranks as the lowest in the National League while his 1.02 WHIP is the NL's third best. Dempster's next scheduled start is this Friday at St. Louis.

He had $34.75 million of his original contract guaranteed. Thanks to the recent contract signed by Joe Flacco, Ryan is going to get a nice pay raise. The report says "when the time is right, Ryan appears set to join Flacco in the $100 million club." Falcons back Ryan (1/29/13) The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that the Falcons remain committed to quarterback Matt Ryan, who is set to enter the last year of his six-year, $66.5 million contract and will likely command a huge increase. “I’ve been incredibly impressed with how Matt just continues to mature with every season and every experience,” Falcons general manager Thomas Dimitroff said. “Matt takes all of his experiences into consideration as he continues to grow. He doesn’t take anything for granted. He has a very good working relationship with our head coach obviously and then this year with (offensive coordinator) Dirk Koetter, which has been extremely important for Matt’s development.” Coach Mike Smith is also behind Ryan, especially with a stagnant running game and the expected retirement of Tony Gonzalez. “We kind of gave the reins to Matt this year in terms of what we’re trying to get done offensively,” Smith said. “It’s always changing. … Matt, in my mind, is an elite quarterback in the National Football League. The number of games that he’s won in his first five years says that. The way he plays, the way he operates the offense, the way he distributes the ball, his understanding of the game, he is one of the elite quarterbacks in the NFL.” Ryan avoids shoulder surgery (1/21/13) An MRI taken Monday on Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan's left (non-throwing) shoulder confirmed a Grade 2 AC joint sprain, according to ESPN. Ryan, who suffered the injury late in the fourth quarter of Atlanta's loss to San Francisco in the NFC Championship Game on Sunday, is expected to keep his shoulder in a sling for about 10 days. He will not require surgery and is scheduled to make a full recovery in four weeks. Falcons coach Mike Smith said Monday the injury would not have prevented Ryan from playing in the Super Bowl had they advanced. "No surgical procedure," Smith said. "He’ll be rehabbing him here over the next couple of weeks. Then he’ll get on to his offseason." Ryan to have MRI on shoulder (1/20/13) Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan had a big game on Sunday in the NFC Championship at home against the 49ers. Unfortunately, playing at home and considered underdogs in the game, Ryan couldn't get his team to the Super Bowl. Ryan threw three touchdown passes and went for just under 400 passing yards but it wasn't enough in the 28-24 defeat. He finished 30 for 42 for 396 yards with three touchdown passes and one interception, while also losing a fumble. According to ESPN, Ryan suffered a sprained AC joint in his left shoulder during the game and will undergo an MRI on Monday to determine the extent of the injury, but he is not expected to require surgery. Several reports indicated the issue would have prevented him from playing in the Super Bowl had the Falcons advanced. Ryan hopes for win streak (1/18/13) Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan won his first playoff game in the Divisional round against the Seahawks. And now he's looking to start a winning streak against the 49ers in the NFC Championship Game on Sunday. Ryan played well against the Seahawks with 250 passing yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions and now has at least 23 Fantasy points in four of his past five outings. The 49ers have struggled of late with three of their past four opposing quarterbacks scoring at least 22 Fantasy points, and Ryan should be able to make plays down the field to Roddy White and Julio Jones. No Headlines Available Preseason predictions calling for a career year from Matt Ryan came to fruition in 2012 as he set personal bests in yardage (4,719), completion percentage (68.6), yards per attempt (7.67) and touchdowns (32). And he did it while setting career highs in pass attempts and completions, leading his team to home-field advantage in the playoffs. It all suggests that the Falcons' decision to move to a more pass-friendly system paid off, and there's no way that's going to change in 2013. Ryan was also one of four quarterbacks to post at least 10 games with at least 20 Fantasy points, suggesting he was one of the most consistent options in the game. All of these things should hold true as the Falcons reload for another Super Bowl run, but assuming the team does that Ryan steps up as not just a top-10 Fantasy quarterback but actually a great Draft Day value since he'll get picked after the cream of the crop at the position. Waiting until Round 4 or 5 for Ryan is one of the smartest moves you can make.

« Last night's 'Lost': Dharmistice | | Lucky 13 for 'American Idol'? » 'Life on Mars' rises from the 'Ashes' Share Sometimes the past should be left in the past. And sometimes sequels are a bad idea. A little background: In 2006, the BBC debuted a drama called “Life on Mars,” which concerned the adventures of an English cop who woke up in 1973. An American version of that show debuted last fall, but you won’t have much longer to enjoy it. ABC recently announced that it won’t be renewing the show (which allegedly will get a proper wrap-up in its final episode). “Ashes to Ashes” (8 p.m. Saturday, BBC America; one and a half stars) is the sequel to the original British “Mars,” and if ever there were a show I was predisposed to like, it was this one. The first version of “Mars” had its share of problems, including slackness in the plots, but it also had terrific interplay between leads John Simm, who played back-in-time detective Sam Tyler, and Philip Glenister, who owned the screen as head-busting cop Gene Hunt. “Ashes,” which is set in 1981, has the great Glenister in fine form, a fantastic soundtrack and a tart sense of humor. That alone, plus our twisted nostalgia for the big hair and the neon clothes of the ’80s, could have been enough to sustain at least casual interest in this show. But it’s almost immediately apparent that making “Ashes” was a bad idea. The new show merely copies the frequently predictable format of “Mars,” in which a headstrong cop from the past solves crimes with help from a partner with newfangled ideas. Though many small things are executed well, some big parts of this show just don’t work, at least in the first couple of episodes. Chief among the problems is police profiler Alex Drake (Keeley Hawes), who finds herself transported from post-millennial London to 1981. The twist is that Drake knew Tyler, and her training in psychology has led her to believe that his jaunt to the past was a mental projection. So Drake, who finds herself working alongside Hunt and his sidekicks, Ray Carling (Dean Andrews) and Chris Skelton (Marshall Lancaster), keeps loudly announcing to everyone that they are figments of her imagination and that she is in charge of this mental projection, thank you very much. That may be the case, but it’s no good having a lead character whom you just want, in almost every scene, to shut up already. If there is supposed to be some sexual tension between her and Hunt, it barely has a chance before being overshadowed by Drake’s grating complaints and repetitive asides about what's happening.The failure of “Ashes” to live up to the modest potential of “Mars” is a real shame, especially given that Glenister is once again effortlessly charismatic as the bust-heads-first, ask-questions-later Hunt. The show’s depiction of the fast-changing Britain of the early ’80s is just right, as are its cheeky visual nods to shows such as “Miami Vice.” If you watch even one episode, there's a good chance you'll be digging out your Roxy Music and Clash albums afterward. Perhaps the lesson learned here is that Glenister deserves his own show, and doesn’t need any assistance from the police of the future. in General television This guy pretty much nailed Ashes to Ashes: http://www.radiotimes.com/blogs/242-why-i-hateashes-to-ashes/ Alex Goode | Unfortunately, Glenister did get one -- and it's fraking mind-meltingly horrible sub-Buffy/Supernatural/what happens when you sniff industrial solvent effort called 'Demons'. OK, the worse American accent either is mildly amusing for thirty seconds. Posted by: Craig Ranapia |

« Cattle Queen Of Montana (1954) Irving Ravetch, 1920 – 2010 » Jubal (1956) September 22, 2010 by Toby Leonard Maltin (from his blog) on the restored print of Jubal screened at the TCM Classic Film Festival — “Later that day I introduced a new 35mm print of Delmer Daves’ 1956 western Jubal. Sony’s Senior Vice President of Restoration, Grover Crisp, explained that it was only in recent years, with digital processes, that he and his team were able to restore the faded color and remove the deep scratches that existed in the original materials on this entertaining film. They also slightly shrank the extra-wide 2:55:1 widescreen image to fit into today’s conventional 2:35:1 CinemaScope frame. I was even more impressed with the original three-channel stereophonic sound, which showed off David Raksin’s score wonderfully well. After the screening I interviewed the indestructible 93-year-old Ernest Borgnine, who had fond memories of filming on location in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, and great fondness for writer-director Daves. We talked about his career in general, and Borgnine completely charmed the audience.” Posted in 1956, Columbia, Delmer Daves, Ernest Borgnine, Festivals, screenings | 6 Comments 6 Responses on September 23, 2010 at 4:32 am | Reply Colin Interesting to hear about the new print, but I can’t say that bit about shrinking the image to fit a 2.35:1 frame fills me with any enthusiasm. on September 23, 2010 at 8:25 am | Reply 50swesterns That scared me a bit, too. But those earlier Scope pictures seem to have enough dead space on the outer edges to give up a bit. I’m gonna stay optimistic.

See the end of Shane and the start of Jubal (the Grand Tettons are the location of the two movies). And the past of Jubal is like the recent past of Shane. on January 15, 2013 at 11:20 am | Reply Moe Wadle Afonso, et al, that is a very interesting thought and I see how the two films could fit together like two jigsaw puzzle pieces. Maybe you were mostly facetious but very observant. However, if you use the books from which the two films came note that Jack Schaefer wrote SHANE and Paul Wellman wrote the book, JUBAL TROOP. So, just coincidence I think. on January 15, 2013 at 12:57 pm | Reply afonso Moe Wadle, it really is more a joke. The two stories are different and I just made a connection, the coincidence of the locations of the two films (Wyoming), and the fact that Shane ends with the hero, wounded, disappearing in the mountains and Jubal begins with the hero, rolling down a mountain, seeking help. And yet, Jubal and Shane are very similar in character, behavior, and skill at arms.

Reid Hoffman comments Why we invested in LinkedIn nine years ago October 15, 2013: 12:50 PM ET An early LinkedIn investor looks back at his firm's original decision. By David Sze FORTUNE -- The best early-stage venture capital investments appear obvious in retrospect, however very few of them are actually obvious when you make them. In fact, we reviewed our process at Greylock and discovered that the best investments are non-obvious enough that they result in a mixed vote by our partnership. Such was the case with LinkedIn (LNKD) nine years ago. The context of the investment October 2004 was a strange times for the pioneers of what would become social networks. The signs of Friendster's decline into irrelevance were already evident. Although it would limp on for a number of years more, Friendster was clearly destined to be a tale like Icarus, not Sir Edmund Hillary. Its investors licked their wounds and those that hadn't been investors counted themselves lucky, given how white-hot the investment had been. One thing that both groups had in common is that they vowed to learn from history. MySpace was the new upstart. Founded in August, 2003, MySpace would go on to be the most visited social networking site in the world from 2005 until early 2008. In June 2006, it would pass Google (GOOG) as the most visited website in the United States. But in October, 2004, though growing rapidly, it was still relatively tiny — seeing roughly 5 million users per month. Obviously, it too would have an Icarus-like ending, but that's a different story. And what of Facebook (FB)? Well, it had just been foundedthat February by an unknown kid named Mark Zuckerberg at Harvard. It was called "thefacebook" (onewordalllowercase) and It was a small, closed college network at Harvard, Yale and Stanford with members numbering in the low thousands. In fact, at that time, the next biggest social networking site after MySpace and Friendster was likely Orkut, an internal passion-project launched by Google in January, 2004. And it was on a Monday in August of that same year that LinkedIn co-founder and CEO Reid Hoffman visited Greylock to present to the team. You may think LinkedIn was an obvious investment in 2004. At the time, however, there were legitimate concerns: Friendster, MySpace, and Orkut were all massively larger than LinkedIn, which was still approaching its first million registered users. LinkedIn projected the ability to build revenue but didn't have a dollar of revenue and hadn't proven it. Most people were unfamiliar with the concept of professional social networking. Fast forward to today and, with his usual focus on transparency in the interest of helping entrepreneurs, Reid has now published the pitch deck he used at Greylock that day with additional perspective, commentary and advice. It's a great read whether you are a founder of a company, thinking about becoming one, or simply a student of innovation and start-up history. I thought it would also be interesting to provide some perspective from our vantage at the time, so I dug out the investment memorandum that I circulated to the partnership prior to Reid's presentation to complement and summarize my compiled due diligence. What follows are excerpts of the arguments I gave to support Greylock's and my investment thesis in LinkedIn. Mission. "LinkedIn's mission is to create the leading, business-focused network site for people where they can "find and contact the people they need, through the people they already trust." Business. "This is inherently a business with strong viral distribution and network effects… And because the whole context of the site is business networking, monetization areas are natural additions to the site, not diversions for users — many of whom at any given time are either looking for jobs, considering looking for jobs, looking to hire people/services/contractors, looking to do sales/BD oriented networking." Path Forward. "Development in three phases: (1) grow the userbase and establish breakaway network effects and scale of user-base/database … ; (2) focus on improving user value, repeat usage, and habit building through (a) better improvements in UI and ease of use, and (b) by building value-added applications and wizards on the database to improve user-mining of value from the network; (3) monetization of the user/network asset through (a) "Opportunities": …, (b) "InLeads": …, and (c) "Network Plus": … Monetization. "If the network remains robust, and they succeed in building value and habit, their monetization potential could be a significant portion of the existing Monster.com market as just a first monetization opportunity." Challenge. "My belief (and theirs) is that they have much work to do cleaning up the UI, and packaging relevant applications and wizards on top of their database to surface high-value, simple results matched to the networking processes that people are trying to mine out of the system. I am focused on making sure they get this right before driving too much into mining the user base for money. There is a significant risk in 'killing the golden goose' before it's fully hatched." Scale. "One of the hardest/riskiest parts of this type of business is getting scale on building a large, high-quality user base at reasonable cost — and this is almost fully behind them already." People. "I believe these are our kind of people. Bright, talented, aggressive/competitive, analytical, committed to excellence, hard-working, intellectually honest, and risk-taking." Competition. In those days, Linkedin was one of a bunch of early business-networking startups such as Plaxo, Spoke, Ryze, Zero Degrees, etc. All of these companies were relatively small, though a number were larger than Linkedin. Summary. "I am very enthusiastic about this opportunity. I think they are well on the way to being impossible to catch in their space from network development, and they have the potential to build a much more addictive experience on top of that userbase, and to monetize it in ways that are relatively non-jarring to their users, and with large revenues and margin potential. I also think Reid is world-class in this type of business and am excited to work with him." Some last reflections Re-reading our memo, I noticed that I didn't even use the words "social network." This was still a relatively new concept overall, and certainly not one yet applied to business networks. With 900,000 users, I was bold enough (crazy enough?) to assume that the hard work of getting to scale may have been behind them. Clearly the ensuing nine years showed that they had plenty of hard work left to build a dominant platform for business users. Did I mention we are all ex-entrepreneurs and operators that are prone to optimism and falling in love with our companies and founders? And finally, most importantly, though extremely enthusiastic about Reid, I still managed to underestimate the remarkable company-builder, innovator and person that I have been privileged to work with, first at LinkedIn, and now at Greylock as well. The rise of Linkedin has been well documented, but it's still easy to underestimate on paper Reid's ceaseless determination and focus on the first two points made above: grow the user base, and increase value to our users. And his obsession with building a truly world-class team for every phase of the journey, punctuated by his lack of ego in finding the right long-term partner for the business in Jeff Weiner, remain an unparalleled lesson for me. Please do take the time to Reid's pitch deck and commentary. It's a rare treat from a rare person.

JPMorgan Chase & Co. via Business Wire News Releases November 09, 2012 at 09:00 AM EST JPMorgan Chase Honors Veterans in Communities across the Country JPMorgan Chase (NYSE: JPM) announced today that it will host a series of Veterans Day events to honor U.S. military veterans as well as company employees who have served. The initiatives reflect JPMorgan Chase’s longstanding commitment to supporting America’s servicemembers and their families. “We have the finest military in the world because of the quality of the people who have served,” said Frank Bisignano, JPMorgan Chase Chief Operating Officer and Mortgage Banking CEO. “Veterans Day is about honoring their dedication and service, and while we should take the time to thank and recognize them for their contributions to our nation, we must also do everything in our power to support them while they’re serving and to help them transition when they return to civilian life.” Veteran’s Day Parades Chase will again sponsor the New York City Veterans Day Parade on Sunday, November 11. As a leading sponsor of the parade, the bank will showcase a 100,000 Jobs Mission float, which will be accompanied by employee veterans from JPMorgan Chase, members of the 100,000 Jobs Mission and their families. In March 2011, JPMorgan Chase and 10 other companies launched the 100,000 Jobs Mission, a coalition of companies committed to hiring at least 100,000 veterans by 2020. Since then, the coalition has grown to 83 companies and has hired more than 28,000 veterans – and counting. JPMorgan Chase employees with military experience and other supportive employees will march in 13 Veteran’s Day parades in communities across the country— Colorado Springs; Columbus; Dallas; Houston; Las Vegas; Media, Pa.; New York; Orlando; Overland Park, Kan.; San Antonio; San Diego; Springfield, Mo.; and Tampa. The bank's senior leaders will also celebrate thousands of employees who have served and who continue to serve in the military at 20 luncheons in 19 cities across the U.S. Home Awards In honor of Veterans Day, Chase and its non-profit partners will award nine mortgage-free homes to military families in Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Tennessee and Texas. In early 2011, Chase announced that it will award 1,000 mortgage-free homes to deserving veterans and their families by 2016. So far, Chase has provided more than 330 homes to its non-profit partners – Building Homes for Heroes, Military Warrior Support Foundation and Operation Homefront – to award to veterans and their families. Homeownership Assistance Maureen Casey, Managing Director of JPMorgan Chase Military and Veteran Affairs, said, “Our servicemen and women often face a unique set of housing challenges. Frequent moves and deployments place extra demands on military families. It’s important that we do everything we can to help these families during what can be a very stressful time in their lives.” Designed with the needs of military homeowners in mind, Chase has opened nine Chase Homeownership Centers in cities near large military bases. Each center is staffed with veterans, family members of those currently serving and dedicated employees who understand the needs of military personnel and are specifically trained to provide one-on-one assistance. In addition, military homeowners can obtain information pertaining to the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA), mortgage modifications, and Chase’s special military programs. The military Chase Homeownership Centers are located in the following areas: Killeen, Texas near Fort Hood San Antonio, Texas near Lackland AFB Jacksonville, Fla. near NAS Jacksonville La Mesa, Calif. near Naval Base San Diego and MCAS Mira Mar Hampton Roads/Norfolk, Va. near Norfolk area bases Jacksonville, N.C. near Camp Lejeune Fayetteville, N.C. near Fort Bragg and Pope AFB Clarksville, Tenn. near Fort Campbell, Ky. Lakewood, Wash. near Joint Base Lewis-McCord In addition, servicemembers who are Chase customers can receive assistance at any of the Chase Homeownership Centers located across 28 states and the District of Columbia or attend a Chase-hosted financial counseling outreach event. The bank has hosted 20 of these events near military bases across the country over the last two years. More are planned for 2013. Servicemembers can also call our dedicated military customer service hotline which is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week: Overseas: 1-318-340-3308 (collect) TDD:1-800-582-0542 For more information about Chase's military initiatives, visit ChaseMilitary.com.

Investing in Value-Creating Opportunities 67 WALL STREET, New York - July 23, 2012 - The Wall Street Transcript has just published its Investing Strategies Report offering a timely review of the market to serious investors. This special feature contains expert industry commentary through in-depth interviews with expert Money Managers. The full issue is available by calling (212) 952-7433 or via The Wall Street Transcript Online.Topics covered: Investing in Canada - Value Investing - Downside Protection - Dividend Yields - Global Macroeconomic Trends Companies include: Federated Investors, Inc. (FII), The TJX Companies, Inc. (TJX), Ross Stores Inc. (ROST), Altria Group Inc. (MO), Philip Morris International, I (PM), Annaly Capital Management, Inc (NLY) and many others. In the following excerpt from the current Investing Strategies Report, a leading portfolio manager from Herndon Capital Management discusses the outlook for the market for investors.TWST: What are some of your top holdings or top investment ideas right now? Please tell us a little bit about what you like about them.Mr. Cain: One thing that I must say is that when you look at our top holdings in the portfolio, for some investors that would correlate to their favorite holdings, but we don't have any core holdings in the portfolio, and we try to steer away from having a lot of biases and subjectivity toward certain companies. Clearly for any investor to make an investment and the investment is working, they have an affinity for it. They want more of it. But in terms of making that something you would call a “favorite,” we shy away from that. Instead, our focus is on the total portfolio, and we are expecting that every company has an opportunity to outperform, it just may not be timely right now.Of some of the more timely names which have worked their way into being some of our larger holdings, I will look at the top three, each coming from a different sector. Federated Investors (FII) is one of the larger publicly traded asset managers, and they have an overhang because they are one of the largest managers of money market fund assets right now. Clearly that part of the investment management industry has come under a great deal of pressure, and the bulk of their assets are in that area. Clearly, with interest rates being so low, it's hard to make a lot of money there. You're seeing some of the weaker or marginal players starting to sell off their funds and assets. Federated is a buyer of that, so in a business where margins are very thin — it’s almost negative; it’s next to nothing — they are building upon the scale that they already have such that when the interest rate environment does turn — and these things tend to run in cycles — they are going to be very well positioned and, we think, continue to garner share and generate solid returns on that asset class. What also is being neglected is that they are a diversified money manager. They also offer longer duration fixed income funds, as well as offering equity funds on a domestic as well as an international front. That doesn’t get talked about a great deal. This is still an extremely profitable company run by a family, the Donahue family, that tends to have an eye toward maximizing their returns as well as that of their coinvestors. So although the company has rebounded somewhat this year, we still think there is a good deal more upside to be generated there.The next company is TJX Companies (TJX), the purveyor of T. J.Maxx, which has benefited from the trade-down effect of the middle-income and even upper-income consumer who wants to buy branded goods but wants to pay a discounted price for doing so. This company as well as another portfolio holding, Ross Stores (ROST), has done extremely well. They don't get lumped so much in the same category as the dollar stores, because they typically are selling goods at higher price points, but what they are is an alternative to mall-based retailers that are selling goods at closer to full price that may be of similar brands. They have benefited from the economic environment that we have been going through, and the amount of loyalty, even as the economy is gradually starting to do better, has not dissipated. The same-store sales have continued to meet and beat investor expectations. So we think that there is still a great deal more upside here. The good thing about them geographically is they have not maxed out their potential — no pun intended on that. They have a platform that's growing nationally, but they still have more growth opportunities. They have exposure to the Canadian market with their platform, and they also recently expanded to the U.K. The discounted branded retail platform is something that we are not sure if it's going to be worldwide, but it's something that clearly has a great deal more legs to it.And then the next one to mention would be Altria (MO). As the market has had issue from time to time with what's taken place over in Europe, some of the consumer staples companies, which this company comes from as far as the sector representation, have done fairly well. And despite the issues regarding legislation, and even though there are well-documented, well-known and well-advertised ill health effects of the products that Altria makes, the company is still making a tremendous amount of money, paying a very healthy dividend and the stock price has responded.One of the things to really like about a lot of the consumer staples companies is that their typical cash outlays to continue to manufacture their products is not that significant. A lot of the spending that they typically are doing is defending the brand. From a commodity standpoint, yes, the cost input levels do fluctuate with commodity prices, but those are pretty well managed. What they are really fighting for, in many cases, is additional market share. Some of the legislation that has taken place regarding marketing has allowed some of the major players to really form more so-entrenched positions, because the competitors can't necessarily out-market if they don't have the dollars. And then, two, they are not going to be allowed to continue to do that to the same degree from a legislative standpoint. So they have a pretty formidable market share in terms of the proverbial moat around the business. The challenge that they do have, unlike their international counterpart Philip Morris International (PM), which is also one of our top 10 holdings, is they are locked into the domestic market. So from a capacity standpoint, they are maxing that out, and clearly it's been shown that the number of smokers is gradually declining. But they have actually been able to continue to get price increases to go through, and they stick because people still have a demand for the product.TWST: What prompts a decision to exit a holding for you?

MMA Fighters Index Trending: UFC Fight Night 38 5 Oz. Exclusive Q&A: Matt Lindland talks about his political campaign; questions the direction of the IFL; and vents about the MMA media By Sam Caplan on April 30, 2008 Matt Lindland is a busy man these days. He’s a fighter; a trainer; and a promoter. And if all goes according to plan, he could become a State House Representative in Oregon. Lindland, running as a conservative republican, recently launched his campaign, which you can find out more about at MattForOregon.com. In the meantime, Lindland was kind enough to take out for an exclusive interview with FiveOuncesOfPain.com. During the interview, Lindland was very candid on his thoughts about the state of Oregon; the IFL’s current direction; and his appraisal of the MMA media that included some intriguing allegations regarding UFC president Dana White and his behavior towards members of the media. The full transcript of our one-on-one interview with Lindland is available below. Sam Caplan: By now, I think everyone is aware you are running for State Representative in House District 52 in Oregon. What was the catalyst for getting involved in politics? Matt Lindland: I’m a native Oregonian and I see our state going in the wrong direction, and I have been for quite some time. Both houses are controlled by the democrats right now and the incumbent in our district stepped down; she decided not to run. So I filed. Sam Caplan: Have you received any endorsements? Matt Lindland: Yes, I have. I have received endorsements from the Conservative Majority Project; the Oregonian; Right to Life; and the Taxpayers Association. Sam Caplan: One of the bigger challenges for a politician is financing a campaign. You mention at your website, MattForOregon.com, that your opponents is receiving lobbyist money. It seems like you’ll be relying on the people to finance your campaign, as opposed to the corporations. How has fundraising gone so far? Matt Lindland: It’s going good. I haven’t check on our totals the last few days, I was actually in Las Vegas for U.S. Open Greco Roman National Tournament and I got back yesterday, and I had a Hall of Fame banquet that a couple of our coaches were inducted into. So I haven’t checked in two days but previously I had more money raised than she did by just doing the grassroots thing; going out and knocking on doors and trying to get some money in order to finance this campaign. Sam Caplan: If people want to support your campaign, all they need to do is go to MattForOregon.com? Matt Lindland: Yes, that would be the right way to do it. And we’ve received a few donations online from out-of-state and I would suspect they are from conservative MMA fans. I’ve probably polarized half of my audience running for office, but that’s okay because I know who I am. I know I stand for and what I believe in. That’s the way politics are. Sam Caplan: You revealed to HDNet’s Ron Kruck during a recent Sportfight telecast that your next fight will be for Affliction in July. At the time, you weren’t sure about an opponent. Has there been any movement in regards to who you will be fighting? Matt Lindland: No, they haven’t. I know of at least three individuals who have turned down the fight. I don’t know how many others they’ve talked to that weren’t even in the running but I know of at least three people that have turned it down that would have been good opponents. Sam Caplan: Can you comment on any of the names of the fighters who turned the fight down? Matt Lindland: Eh, it doesn’t matter. Sam Caplan: There were rumors you might be fighting Frank Trigg on that show. Was there any truth to those rumors? Matt Lindland: I don’t think there was ever any truth to them. Frank Trigg and I are pretty good friends and he’s always told me that he thinks he’s a welterweight. And I agree, I think he’s a welterweight. He’s done good recently at the middleweight division but my assessment is that Frank is a welterweight. Sam Caplan: When Affliction was recruiting you as a fighter, did they go into detail about their MMA plans? Matt Lindland: Yeah, but things have kind of changed, to tell you the truth. There were some other people that were originally going to be involved; there were some big names behind it. I don’t know, but I think right now those things have changed. Sam Caplan: Have you gotten any sort of indication of what caused things to change? Matt Lindland: You know, everybody has got their side of the story. I’m just fighting. This isn’t my organization; I’m not running it. I will support them any way I can as one of their athletes. But no, I honestly don’t really know. I’m into enough politics right now that I don’t need to get into the politics of the sport and these organizations that are battling against each other. Sam Caplan: Four of your fighters, Ryan Schultz, Matt Horwich, Zach George, and Aaron Stark will all be on the IFL’s next show on May 16. However, it doesn’t appear they will be using a camp vs. camp format for the show. Have they told you whether they plan to retain the camp concept? Matt Lindland: I don’t know, they keep changing what they’re doing. They keep spending money and not recouping any money. I don’t know what they’re doing. Every show they expect us to be able to keep up with what they’re doing and with every show they change the way they’re operating, they change their structure, they change how the guys are getting their sponsors… A year ago everybody was getting a salary and was supposed to get healthcare and they were paying for our medicals. As of late they’re just like any other promotion company. They’re trying to figure out how to do this and they’re not doing it right in my opinion. I don’t know. I think they need some changes and they just keep making them. They make so many changes I can’t even keep up with what they’re doing right now. Sam Caplan: There are a lot of rumors that the IFL won’t be able to survive long-term. From

In Dierker’s day, there was no pageantry for throwing a complete game. It was part of the job. As is the case with just about everything in life, nothing stays the same forever. Times change. Trends change. Hairstyles, clothing, music (and the devices by which we listen to that music) all change. Baseball has changed as well, even if the differences aren’t as glaring as the contrast between bell bottoms and leisure suits in the 1970s and parachute pants and sky-high bangs in the ’80s. Baseball has changed in more subtle ways, due in large part to the escalation of salaries paid to players these days. Pitchers arms are worth, essentially, millions. Like any other valuable asset, the rightsholders to those arms are protective of their commodity. In turn, the rightsholders — also known as Major League organizations — often treat those arms with kid gloves, careful to not overuse or abuse the investment. A couple of generations ago, on the other hand, pitching was viewed not so much as a science as it was a responsibility. Starting pitchers, quite simply, were supposed to finish what they started. Specialized relief pitchers — lefty specialists, setup men, setup men to the setup men — were largely unheard of. If you pitched the first inning, you were also expected to pitch the ninth. It didn’t always work out that way, of course — it’s not like bullpens are a new thing — but there was a sense of pride with a starting pitcher, and a sense of failure when he wasn’t still on the mound for the last out. Larry Dierker debuted as a Houston Colt .45 on Sept. 22, 1964, his 18th birthday. He was done as a pitcher by age 30, largely due to the wear and tear on a right arm that endured 2,333 Major League innings. Dierker retired in 1977 after a brief stint with the St. Louis Cardinals. When he left the Astros, he held a record that still stands today: 106 complete games. It’s likely a record that may never be broken. That’s not because the Astros will never have another pitcher who could show that kind of endurance. It’s just that those pitchers won’t be allowed to finish that many games. Their arms are too expensive. Why take the risk? Pedro Martinez, arguably the most dominant pitcher of his generation, recorded 46 complete games during his stellar 18-year career. Greg Maddux, also in a class of his own through the 1990s, recorded 109 complete games — over 23 years. By contrast, Hall of Famer Warren Spahn, whose career lasted 21 years from the mid-1940s to the mid-1960s, recorded a whopping 382 complete games, well over half of his 665 career starts. Dierker wasn’t in the same class as Spahn, of course, but they came from the same old-school style of pitching: you start what you finish, or you didn’t do your job. The one season Dierker spent with the Cardinals was the only time he spent away from the Astros. After retirement, he worked for the ticket office for a spell. Then he moved up to the broadcast booth, where he spent nearly two decades as an announcer. He was hired to manage the Astros in 1997, and after that five-year run ended, he slowly worked his way back into the fold as a good will ambassador for the team. All of the alumni functions that have taken place over the last decade are largely due to his leadership. Dierker threw out the first pitch before the game on Friday, a day when the Astros wore the same Colt .45s uniforms Dierker sported during his debut all of those years ago. Many former players will be honored throughout the 50th anniversary celebration this year, but no one has given more time, knowledge and loyalty to this organization than Dierker. It’s always nice to see “Sluggo” at the ballpark. Enjoy the images of his first pitch, along with other highlights from the day that was: Dierker, during an introduction by PA announcer Bob Ford. Dierker throws the ceremonial first pitch to manager Brad Mills. Batting practice: a relaxed Carlos Lee watches from behind the cage. Jordan Schafer records a promo video for the Astros, wearing a boa and playing some sort of accordion device. (Yes, really.) The Astros celebrated Jackie Robinson Day on Friday, their first day back after a week-long road trip. They honored Hall of Famer and Houston resident Monte Irvin during the ceremony. Donning the Colt .45s uniform, J.D. Martinez signs autographs before the game. As was the case the first time they wore the retro uniforms on April 10, the Astros were digging the stirrups. Lucas Harrell proudly sported his both days. In honor of Jackie Robinson Day, kids ran on the field when the players took their positions. Here's Chris Johnson making a new friend. And Chris Snyder, doing the same behind the plate.

I was in Spring training with the Astros in 1966 and remember what a nice guy he was as well as a great pitcher. Keep up the good work!!

Poz boyfriend feels dependent Topic: Poz boyfriend feels dependent (Read 2048 times) Hello! I am a gay man in my 30s. I met my boyfriend almost three years ago and within weeks of starting our relationship, he tested positive. We had had unprotected sex, but I tested negative (and am still negative, tested every 6 months). I did not break up with him; in fact, I so no reason to do so. I really liked the guy, he was (and still is) getting excellent care, we both learned a lot about living with HIV, and I don't mind using condoms. So everything seemed okay... though I still had this nagging feeling that maybe he was staying with me because he needed the emotional support. I know that sounds condescending, but there were numerous online/virtual infidelities on his part in the months after the diagnosis and I asked him over and over again if he wanted out, promising to continue to be a friend. Every time he said no, that he loved me. He also said he "needed" me, which caused some worry. Fast forward: he loses his job. I help him out financially, let him use my car (which was just sitting in the driveway anyway, since I walk/take the bus everywhere), and ask him to move in with me to get himself back on his feet (no rent, no utilities, etc. = growing bank account) and he did. Well, he's been dragging his feet with breaking his lease and last week told me that the old apartment symbolizes his independence, that he'll need somewhere else to go if "we don't work out." And he keeps saying he needs his own car (which I agree with) because that will make him more independent. I just kept getting vibes that he doesn't want to be with me but feels he has no choice. Once he has a car he can always move back in to his place and move on. Anyway, I recently learned that he told a friend of his that "now that his HIV in under control, [he] just wants to move on but doesn't know how." I don't know what to do at this point. I love and care about the guy very much. But it feels awful knowing that someone is staying with you because he feels he has no choice. It was also painful to hear that he was with me because he "needed" me and now that he's got good care, has disclosed to family and friends and has their support, and learned that there are plenty of gay men who will sleep with him despite his status, he'd like to move on. I've always worried that, because the beginning of our relationship coincided with his diagnosis, the day he finally came to terms with being HIV+ would signal the end of our relationship. Sometimes, I kick myself for not breaking up with him earlier (b/c of the infidelities), because this is partially my own doing. Sometimes, I wonder if all of his salacious FB chats and internet dalliances weren't in part intended to prompt me to break up with him. Like he wants out but can't quite work up the strength to say so.So what do I do? In the past, I've proposed: breaking up, having an open relationship, "playing" together with others (I'm no prude!). I've tried talking with him, but I think he's scared to tell me the truth because he does depend on me to get to work every day (not that I'd throw him out onto the street!). If I break up with him now, he will have no transportation, which will affect his ability to work, an apartment with no electricity or heat (that was shut off long ago), and piles of bills he can't pay. Maybe that's not my problem and I should quit enabling him. Thoughts anyone? The perspective of someone else in a serodiscordant couple (poz or neg) would help a lot!Thank you! Re: Poz boyfriend feels dependent I think you should print out this well explained post and give it to him and have a discussion. If you split up, I hope you understand neither is to blame, neither is at fault. It sounds like both of you have good reasons to want to split up and remain friends, and it sounds like neither of you has done anything on purpose to hurt each other. Logged Look at it this way - what would you do if hiv wasn't part of the equation? Because after all, it isn't, not really. If he's using you, chances are he is just a user and would be regardless of hiv. Nobody needs/deserves that in their life. He's an adult - if he wants his independence to the point of hanging on to an apartment he cannot afford, give him his independence. After all, you won't be breaking up with him because of his hiv status, you'd be breaking up with him because he's using you. I also agree with Mecch - it's time you two sat down and had a full and frank discussion. Agree with Ann here. HIV isn't really the issue; it's about trust. I say confront him (gently) with the "I want to move on but don't know how" quote and see what he has to say.If you still have doubt, I say make the cut before this turns messy. You don't have to stay with him out of concern or pity; like you yourself said: "Maybe that's not my problem and I should quit enabling him." Sounds right on to me. Well don't assume anything. I didn't read anything here that suggests he doesn't love you.Also I don't have a problem with lovers also expressing how they "need" each other. Furthermore, as a lifelong resident of urban areas with nightmare rents and hard to find apartments, I have ALWAYS had anxiety about when to give up one.... (Anyone else remember Slaves of New York with Bernadette Peters?) I think it could be responsible and self protective, and respectful of the lover if you are living in the lover's apt, to have a way out of a cohabitation. After all, this cancels a "need" that sometimes unfortunately does keep people together. Finally, don't interpret what he says to a friend about going forward meaning it is about his love or your couple, it might be generally how to "go forward" in life, on so many tasks, since he's in a new and tight spot. You can only discover the truths by talking to each other rather completely and honestly. Best for that! Thank you all for the replies! mecch, good point about nightmare rents. We live in an area with high rent and his apartment is a steal. I also see that having a contingency plan can be considered responsible and respectful (i.e. so that he doesn't become a burden if things don't work out). As for "moving on," he said that in reference to me. His friend had asked him how things were going with me and he said that I was supportive and saw him through a dark period, but that he misses the excitement of dating, hooking up, etc. and wants to move on.It's hard to imagine HIV not being part of the equation, since it weighed heavily on us early on (coping, visits to the doctor, starting meds, telling his family, etc), but maybe Ann and 0608 have a point about trust. I can't help but worry that when he says independence he means license to date, etc. Since he has in the past refused all my attempts to satisfy sexual appetites (e.g. open relationship) and reiterated his desire to be monogamous, I wonder if he just wants to have his cake and eat it, too: a loving, supportive bf who he can bring home on holidays, with a little excitement on the side. I could see how having to use my car, living in my apartment, and not really having the money to go out on his own can hinder that. In any case, I will sit down and try to have a serious discussion with him. Thank you all again! You're very welcome. Good luck with the discussion and I hope you can do what's right for you - and feel good about it. Logged lost_boy Given that he misses the 'excitement' of dating etc, sounds to me a little bit like he doesn't want to grow up and enter into an adult relationship which involves commitment. Then again, it could also be that he does care for you deeply... but he's still a bit of a user and a philanderer!Relationships have their ups and downs, and if it's more down than up then maybe you both need out and your need to be the 'adult' one and end it. As Ann says, I do think this is less about HIV, more about trust (you guys could have been brought together for any other circumstance). You both need to talk anyway! Hope you can work it out, life's tough like that. It ain't perfect like the movies, sadly! Logged

hide Joan Mondale, wife of former U.S. vice president, dies at 83 File picture of former Vice President Walter Mondale and his wife Joan. - RTXLM2V By David Bailey MINNEAPOLIS (Reuters) - Joan Mondale, the wife of former U.S. Vice President Walter Mondale and a champion of the arts, died on Monday, her family said in a statement. She was 83. Mondale died with the former vice president, her sons Ted and William, and other family members at her side, said the statement released through their church. She entered hospice care on Friday. The family did not provide details on her illness. "We are grateful for the expressions of love and support we have received. Joan was greatly loved by many. We will miss her dearly," Walter Mondale, 86, said in a statement. Mondale's support for the arts ran more than six decades from her study and work in college through her promotion of arts programs and artists during and after Walter Mondale's terms as a U.S. senator, vice president and ambassador. "A lifelong patron of the arts, Joan filled the vice presidential mansion with works by dozens of artists, including many unknowns, and later did the same at the U.S. embassy in Japan during her husband's tenure as ambassador," President Barack Obama and his wife said in a statement. "Our thoughts and prayers are with Vice President Mondale and his family today as we remember with gratitude 'Joan of Art' and her service to our nation." Named by former President Jimmy Carter as honorary chairperson of the Federal Council on the Arts and the Humanities, Mondale advocated for government support of the arts across the United States, according to a biography from the Minnesota Historical Society. Mondale had given tours and lectures at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts and gave tours of the National Gallery of Art after moving with her family to Washington, the biography said. Her 1972 book, "Politics in Art," was based on her lectures. She filled the vice president's residence with contemporary American art during Walter Mondale's term and immersed herself in Japanese art when he served as ambassador to Japan in the 1990s, according to the historical society biography. Joan Mondale was preceded in death by her daughter Eleanor Mondale, who died in 2011 from brain cancer. A service will be held on Saturday at Westminster Presbyterian Church in Minneapolis, the statement said.

WEEI » Full Count » Will Middlebrooks leaves game due to ‘right wrist soreness’ Will Middlebrooks leaves game due to ‘right wrist soreness’ By Alex Speier Will Middlebrooks suffered an injury that forced him to leave the game on Wednesday (AP) SARASOTA, Fla. — Red Sox third baseman Will Middlebrooks left in the first inning of Wednesday’s Grapefruit League game against the Orioles after suffering an injury while facing Baltimore right-hander Chris Tillman. Middlebrooks tried to check his swing on an inside fastball from Tillman. His hand flew off the bat as he attempted to do so, and after he unsuccessfully held up his swing, Middlebrooks immediately walked towards the Red Sox dugout, where he was greeted by a team trainer and manager John Farrell. The decision to remove him from the game was immediate. As Middlebrooks walked off the field, he was holding his right hand against his side — a particularly troubling sign for the Sox given that Middlebrooks’ 2012 season ended in early August when his right wrist was fractured by a pitch. The injury was describe by the Red Sox as “right wrist soreness,” with the third baseman slated for further evaluation on Thursday. Pedro Ciriaco was sent to the plate to complete the at-bat. If Middlebrooks suffered an injury of any severity, it would deplete the Sox at one of the positions where they possess their least depth. Middlebrooks hit .288 with .325 OBP and .509 slugging mark along with 15 homers in 75 games in his rookie season in 2012. But when he went down for the season after getting smoked by a 95 mph fastball in the right wrist, the Sox suffered a considerable diminution in offensive firepower when Pedro Ciriaco (.293/.315/.390/.705 on the year; .270/.298/.345 after Middlebrooks’ injury) took over at the position. The only other option for third base on the 40-man roster is Brock Holt, though Holt is just being introduced to the position this spring. Xander Bogaerts, likewise, is being introduced to third base this spring, though the shortstop was playing there solely in preparation for his participation in the World Baseball Classic with Team Netherlands. Still, even with his introduction to the position, given that the 20-year-old has little more than a week’s worth of experience taking groundballs at third and has played just one month in Double-A, it would be unrealistic to consider him an option to start the regular season if the Middlebrooks injury represents a threat to his availability at the start of the year. Still, given the fact that an injury has yet to be announced, it remains premature to speculate for how long Middlebrooks might be sidelined. More details will be offered as they become available.

I thought of Rae Carruth today, whatever that means. If Aaron knows what happened, I hope he comes clean, because people that know the truth will talk, they ALWAYS do- only a matter of time.

Book offers rare glimpse of male body dysmorphia By LEANNE ITALIE The Associated Press - • Published: August 12, 2013 | 12:00 am This book cover image released by NetMinds shows "Shattered Image: My Triumph Over Body Dysmorphic Disorder," by Brian Cuban. Cuban, brother of Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban, wrote a self-published account of cocaine, alcohol and steroid abuse, a brush with suicide, visits to a psychiatric hospital and three failed marriages. (AP Photo/NetMinds) Body dysmorphia, anorexia and bulimia have been studied in women for years, but rare is an account from a man who battled the dangerous, distorted reflection in his mirror.Out this month from Brian Cuban, a younger brother of Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban, is "Shattered Image," his self-published account of cocaine, alcohol and steroid abuse, a brush with suicide, visits to a psychiatric hospital and three failed marriages.All, he said in a recent interview, stemmed from the "monster" he began seeing in his mirror as a socially crippled teenager who was overweight and bullied, both at school and by his own mother, herself a victim of body-focused verbal abuse from his grandmother.Cuban, 52, the executive director of the Mark Cuban Foundation, said he managed to hide his demons until loved ones helped him into recovery about six years ago. Now he fields emails from young people facing the same troubles, mostly girls trying to deal with shards of shattered self-images in their own mirrors.He wishes more boys were among them."Even in 2013, the stigma is just huge for boys. You don't want to out yourself," said Cuban, who lives in Dallas. "I've had men come to me and say they're hiding eating disorders from their wives. They're afraid of losing their jobs. They're afraid of being thought of as gay. Not much has changed for men."AP: You're just six years or so into recovery. Why write this book now?Cuban: I just felt that there was a lack of understanding of male self-image and male eating disorders, especially body dysmorphic disorder. It is overwhelmingly thought of and portrayed in the media - and in research - as a predominantly female disorder. I wanted to be one of the ones stepping forward to help change that conversation. Nobody else seems to be. The process of writing was a big part of my recovery. Not just the book but on my blog. I came out as a bulimic on my blog. That was the first my family even knew of it. AP: In addition to the book, what steps will you take to raise visibility on these and related issues like bullying? Cuban: My goal is to reach out to college students to educate them about male body image issues. And to reach out to parents to hopefully start a new conversation about how to talk to your children and how fat-shaming can affect your child's perspective and get it out there that every child is different. Every child is born unique. When I talk to parents I hear a lot of, 'Well, I was bullied and I fought back so that's what I'm going to teach my kid.' That's great and maybe that will work for your son or your daughter, but your child is not you. Your child may not be mentally equipped to handle it the way you did. email print Making heaven real: Child's account leads to book- and now a movie Check out this article on Colorado Springs Gazette: http://gazette.com/book-offers-rare-glimpse-of-male-body-dysmorphia/article/1504726

Cancer Research UK to Conduct Phase I Trial with Merck KGaA’s B-Cell Lymphoma Candidate Cancer Research UK and Cancer Research Technology, the charity’s development and commercialization arm, are taking over preclinical and early clinical development of Merck KGaA’s leukemia and lymphoma candidate called DI-B4. Cancer Research UK will fund a Phase I trial with DI-B4, a CD19-targeting mAb. Merck retains the option to take the antibody through later-stage clinical development and commercialization in return for future payments to the charity. If the company decides not to exercise this option, Cancer Research Technology will be given rights to the antibody to look for other partnership opportunities. DI-B4 will be one of the first drugs manufactured at Cancer Research UK’s new £20 million (about $32.33 million) Biotherapeutic Development Unit. It was designed for the development and GMP manufacture of biotherapeutics including viruses for clinical trials. The Phase I trial with Dl-B4 will involve about 20 to 40 patients with advanced B-cell lymphoma. The deal comes under Cancer Research UK’s Clinical Development Partnership program. The center says that DI-B4 is the fourth anticancer drug to enter this program, which was established in 2006.

Jacobs and Theda Skocpol Explains in clear English how health care reform will affect all groups of Americans, from rich to poor Concise, authoritative and dramatic account of how health care reform came to pass and the politics behind the bill Details how it will improve America>'s health care system and improve health care for ordinary Americans Authored by two of the nation's leading scholars of American politics Includes a powerful final chapter on whether the new law will be repealed or watered down in coming years New to this Edition: updated to cover the Supreme Court decision on Health Care Reform The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act signed by President Obama in March 2010 is a landmark in U.S. social legislation, and the Supreme Court's recent decision upholding the Act has ensured that it will remain the law of the land. The new law extends health insurance to nearly all Americans, fulfilling a century-long quest and bringing the United States to parity with other industrial nations. Affordable Care aims to control rapidly rising health care costs and promises to make the United States more equal, reversing four decades of rising disparities between the very rich and everyone else. Millions of people of modest means will gain new benefits and protections from insurance company abuses - and the tab will be paid by privileged corporations and the very rich. How did such a bold reform effort pass in a polity wracked by partisan divisions and intense lobbying by special interests? What does Affordable Care mean-and what comes next? In this updated edition of Health Care Reform and American Politics: What Everyone Needs to Know®, Lawrence R. Jacobs and Theda Skocpol-two of the nation's leading experts on politics and health care policy-provide a concise and accessible overview. They explain the political battles of 2009 and 2010, highlighting White House strategies, the deals Democrats cut with interest groups, and the impact of agitation by Tea Partiers and progressives. Jacobs and Skocpol spell out what the new law can do for everyday Americans, what it will cost, and who will pay. In a new section, they also analyze the impact the Supreme Court ruling that upheld the law. Above all, they explain what comes next, as critical yet often behind-the-scenes battles rage over implementing reform nationally and in the fifty states. Affordable Care still faces challenges at the state level despite the Court ruling. But, like Social Security and Medicare, it could also gain strength and popularity as the majority of Americans learn what it can do for them.What Everyone Needs to Know® is a registered trademark of Oxford University Press.

Health Care Reform and American Politics "Health Care Reform and American Politics provides great insight into what really happened on the road to health care reform. If you really want to know how the system works--and how it doesn't--this is the place to start."--Senator Al Franken What does health reform do for Americans?By Theda Skocpol and Lawrence R. Jacobs The Affordable Care and Patient Protection Act that was passed by Congress and signed into law in March 2010 sets in motion reforms in U.S. health insurance coming into full effect in 2014. Most Americans are confused about what the law promises -- and no wonder.Posted on September 23, 2013Read the blog post Your Money or Your Life David M.

Michigan Man Has 29 College Degrees and CountingBy CHRISTINA NG | Good Morning America – Mon, Jun 18, 2012 3:16 PM EDT 3261Tweet0 Related ContentView PhotoMichigan Man Has 29 College Degrees … Every June, students all over the country don their caps and gowns for graduation. Whether it's from high school, college or graduate school, most people could easily count their own graduations on one hand. But not 71-year-old Michael Nicholson of Kalamazoo, Mich. Nicholson has earned 29 degrees and is now pursuing his 30th. "I just stayed in school and took menial jobs to pay for the education and just made a point of getting more degrees and eventually I retired so that I could go full-time to school," Nicholson told ABCNews.com. "It's stimulation to go to the class, look at the material that's required and meet the teacher and students. It makes life interesting for me," he said. "Otherwise, things would be pretty dull." Nicholson has one bachelor's degree, two associate's degrees, 22 master's degrees, three specialist degrees and one doctoral degree. Most of the degrees are related to education such as educational leadership, library science and school psychology, but other degrees include home economics, health education and law enforcement. Nicholson is currently working on a master's degree in criminal justice. "I would like to get to 33 or 34. I'm almost there," he said. "When I complete that, I'll feel like I've completed my basic education. After that, if I'm still alive -- that would take me to 80 or 81 -- I would then be free to pursue any type of degree." Nicholson's early interest in education came from the encouragement of his parents, who wanted him to be well-educated. His Canadian father was forced to drop out of school after the third grade to work and his mother graduated from high school. "We were motivated to continue with our educations and go as far as we could go," he said of himself and his siblings. "She [his mother] wanted something better for us than simply working at a factory, so she kept doing the necessary for us to continue." Nicholson's first degree was a bachelor's in religious education from William Tyndale College in Michigan in 1963. Five degrees later, he was pursuing his doctorate in education from Western Michigan University in 1978. While pursuing the doctorate, he met Western Michigan University Professor Tom Carey when Nicholson was working as a parking lot attendant writing tickets for the university. He wrote Carey three tickets in one day and the two have now known each other for 35 years. "I've had 18,000 students in class and I've never heard of anybody like this," Carey told ABCNews.com. "He's the ultimate life-long learner. I marvel at his tenacity to go to school." Nicholson has earned all of his degrees; none of them have been honorary or awarded degrees. Though Carey was never Nicholson's professor, the two meet at least once a year for Nicholson to give Carey an updated resume, which he shows students in his classes. "He's intrinsically motivated. It's unique, but it almost sounds bizarre," Carey said. "Some people collect animals and he collects tassels." And collect tassels he does. Nicholson has been to 28 of his 29 graduation ceremonies. What does he enjoy about the graduation ceremonies? "Just the pomp and circumstance. ... I could do without the speeches," he said with a laugh. "Eventually, it became getting as many as I could," he said. "There's the excitement of graduation, but the overall objective was to get the degree." He has earned degrees from a dozen schools in places including Michigan, Texas, Indiana and Canada, and he always goes to class. "I would not take an Internet class. That's far too difficult," Nicholson said. "I'm not one of those all-A students." He still works on a typewriter and his wife Sharon Nicholson helps him type up his assignments. His wife is highly educated in her own right, with seven degrees of her own. "She helps me with my homework all the time," he said. "I cannot function on a computer, so she has to do it." When asked what advice he would give to recent graduates, Nicholson paused before saying, "Don't quit too soon. Keep up with your aspirations. A lot of people tend to throw in the towel and have to come back to it later. Don't give up on your aspirations too soon." And the admittedly competitive Nicholson has no plans to give up on his own aspirations, hinting that he has his eye on a few more degrees in the next few years. "He likes going to school and doesn't want responsibility," Carey said. "This is what Mike lives for. He's about 70 and he's not going to stop. It wouldn't surprise me if at one point he tried law school or something else."

Gaudi’s Barcelona Expo 2010, Shanghai Monday, 3rd May 2010 by Kevin Batdorf The city of Chiang Mai, founded in April of 1296, was once a capital city protected by a powerful defensive wall, surrounded by a square moat. Although most of the inner wall has since been destroyed, some of it still remains intact. Regardless, the rich culture of the once powerful Lanna Kingdom still lives on in this modern Thai city. Chiang Mai was the original capitol of the Kingdom of Lanna, who built and inhabited of the area until 1558, when it came under Burmese rule. The Lanna people fled to Lampang, just east of Chiang Mai. In 1767, the Burmese attacked the city of Ayutthaya in the south. This triggered the northern Lanna people and the southern Kingdom of Siam (now the Kingdom of Thailand) to combine forces to remove the Burmese from both cities. The wall did not hold long after that, and today can only be seen in small sections, mostly isolated in each corner. The city lay abandoned and in ruin until 1796, when Chiang Mai became a part of the Kingdom of Siam. During that time it was used as a separate northern trade centre, second only to Bangkok. Bangkok is roughly 580km (360 miles) south of Chiang Mai and transportation at the time was dangerous. It wasn’t until the 1920s that transportation became more readily available and Bangkok once again was the centre of the Kingdom. Today, Chiang Mai has expanded beyond the borders of the moat, and the population has grown to nearly one million. The influence of the Lanna is still present today – the local handicrafts, cuisine, ceremonies, and much more are distinctive from the rest of Thailand. http://gss.st/EG Send to a friend Thailand Structures About the author Mang Gorn Luang (The Royal Dragon) Forbidden City Temple of Heaven Possible Nuclear Weapon Bunker in Burma?

Sometimes, we do find out why dogs are man’s best friends… by Susan Olsen (H/T: Grokster Susan’s brother as a Christmas gift to all!) RNC 2012 Notable Quotables… by Scott Morales Here are some notable quotes from the 2012 RNC. I’m sure I missed some… “… Biden is the intellect of the Democratic Party” — Clint Eastwood “My dad was a bartender….You see, he stood behind the bar all those years so that one day I could stand behind a podium…” – Sen. Marco Rubio “…instead […] Yes, as a matter of fact, that IS me in my classic convertible. And yes, I’ve still got the touch, even after all these years…. by Tim Condon Another Plague On Marriage (and the culture..?) by Steve MacDonald Pornography is an addiction. The pleasure derived from it is neurochemical, no different than any other pharmaceutical high. Men are particularly susceptible. And the culture continues to shift towards a society where porn is like aspirin. Cheap, readily available, and an acceptable daily supplement for whatever ails you. But it is no less destructive to the consumer (I’m not addressing the affects inside the industry here) than any of the other declining cultural ‘advances’ of the past few decades.

Greenbrier Valley Theatre December 1, 2012 I am an actor of 9 years, getting my first acting experience at Greenbrier Valley Theatre after attending their summer camp for youth in 2003. Since then GVT has been a life-changing place for me, a family that I have had the wonderful opportunity to call my home. It's amazing that this place exists in such a small town and its sheer presence has sent ripples throughout the community and far beyond. I am proud to say that GVT was my first employer and I continued to work, act and volunteer there every year that I lived in West Virginia. GVT is a one of a kind place that cannot be missed.

23 Jun 2007 4:32 AM Mixing up paths and goals By Sean Casten Grist guest contributor RPS legislation (which seems to have recently died in the Senate, although could conceivably be reintroduced on amendment) is well-intended, but poorly constructed. Roll the clock back 100 years, and assume you’re the legislator tasked with figuring out how to get the population to go West. Which do you choose: (a) the Homestead Act, giving people land as soon as they prove that they can get there and cultivate it, or (b) a tax rebate to anyone who hitches five white horses to a Conestoga wagon and takes Route 66 west? A silly question perhaps, but a good metaphor for how most RPS rules work. Rather than articulate a goal, a la the Homestead Act, they pick a series of preferred technologies to incentivize. The result is an utter mishmash at the state level, where virtually every state has a different legal definition of renewable energy. All states include wind and solar, but then the comparisons fall apart. Some like biomass, some don’t, and some only if it is grown and/or combusted in the right way. Some states like hydro, some don’t, and some only like it if it’s small. Few like trash incineration, for understandable reasons. Many like natural gas (provided it’s used in a fuel cell) for goofy political reasons. I would argue that this has been to the detriment of renewable fuels advocates, for a couple reasons. One, it has effectively equated renewables with handouts. Virtually nothing that is included in the definition of renewable energy in any jurisdiction is truly economically competitive at current prices. This isn’t a knock on those technologies, but rather an observation on what has become a self-sustaining prophecy, where those tasked with implementing RPS rules have interpreted one of their objectives as being to develop new technologies (and therefore expressly not to support economically viable ones). This need not be the case. However, this gets us to a larger issue. RPS sounds really good politically, and is endorsed by lots of politicians. But the narrow list of technologies that they include (and the excessive focus on expensive ones) has made all RPSs really expensive, either because of inherent cost or — more commonly — because most RPS markets are supply constrained, thus driving up the costs of certificates. If we recast these rules in terms of goals, we would see a flood of new technologies being deployed — and since we define the goals, we can ensure that we’re comfortable with the consequences of those technologies. If noncarbon emissions are a concern, write them into the goal. If siting/zoning is a concern, write it into the goal. But frame it as a goal. And this brings up the final problem with current rules, borne out in yesterday’s Senate hearing. When all RPS is expensive, the political debate becomes one of “Can we afford it?” or, its sinister stepsister, “Why should we subsidize them?” In other words, it has now become a political article of faith that clean energy is expensive. Which isn’t really true — it’s just that the particular paths we’ve chosen to reward are expensive. I will be candid that there are losers in this reformulation. If we define clean energy by goal, it will lead to a flood of new technologies in the market. This will drive down the price of renewable certificates and change the debate from “Can we afford it?” to “How quickly can we roll this out?” These are all good things. But the result is that the current beneficiaries of high prices — primarily wind and solar — will get less money per kilowatt-hour for their projects. This may slow the deployment of those technologies. But — to be blunt — who cares? These are paths, not goals. We ought to seek a world that maximally uses clean energy, not one that maximally uses some particular technology. Let’s go back to our Homestead Act thought experiment, but roll the clock forward. Which would you rather have: (a) a world where energy keeps getting cheaper and relies on ever-less carbon, or (b) a world that uses lots of wind and solar? The choice ought to be an easy one. But in order to make it, we need to rethink our approach. Sean Casten is president & CEO of Recycled Energy Development, LLC, a company devoted to profitably reducing greenhouse emissions.

Nutrition in Foods Does Brining Kill Food-Borne Pathogens? by Tracey Roizman, D.C. Brining is a convenient way to preserve foods. Brining, or pickling, is a form of food preservation in which pathogens are killed by soaking the food in a vinegar-and-salt solution. Spices are also added to a brine to provide distinctive flavor. Many foods, including vegetables, cheeses, fish and meats, can be preserved to varying degrees by brining. The high-salt concentration in brine causes water to be released from the food, thereby helping preserve it. Most of the pathogen-killing, spoilage-delaying properties associated with this form of food preservation are derived from the salt and acid conditions in brine. Most bacteria have a specific range of environmental conditions that they will tolerate regarding temperature, pH and salt. According to Texas A&M University, the lowest tolerable pH limits for some of the most common food pathogens range from a pH of 5 for Clostridium perfringens, the third most common form of food poisoning, to 4.0 for salmonella, a toxin-producing bacteria that has been responsible for numerous disease outbreaks. Medical and hospitalization costs attributed to salmonella infections between 1993 and 2001 totaled $2.8 billion per year, according to a study conducted by the National Centers for Infectious Diseases. If you brine food at home, use a pH testing device so that you can become familiar with the degree of acidity in your brine and the types of bacteria it is likely to control. Salt and pH A study published in the 2011 issue of the "Journal of Food Sciences" compared 10 commercial brines for their ability to control E. coli growth on cucumbers and found that those with the lowest pH and those with the highest salt concentrations were the quickest to kill pathogenic bacteria. One solution that had a 20-percent higher salt concentration than average for the sampled brines showed a relatively quick antibacterial effect. Those with pH values in the lower end of the 3.0 to 4.6 range showed the fastest effects. The length of time required for the brines to be effective at killing a sufficient number of bacteria ranged from three days to three weeks. Brine Penetration Depending on the type of food or the size of the batches you are brining, the brine may not easily soak through the food, decreasing its preservative value. Techniques such as agitating or tumbling the food or creating a vacuum can increase the rate of penetration of the brine into the food. Raising the temperature, using a greater amount of brine for the same amount of food or, in some cases, injecting the brine into the food -- particularly meats -- is also an option. High-tech brining may even involve the use of ultrasound to encourage salt penetration. However, ultrasound has been found to have a different effect on the transfer of water and can also result in changes in the texture, smell and taste of the finished product. While brining is a widely used form of food preservation, it is not completely effective against all food-borne pathogens. If you brine food or eat food that has been brined, you still must refrigerate the food, cook it when necessary and store it properly. Food preservation guidelines change as new information is added through research, so prepare brined food you eat by using current standards.

Saving the U.S.’s only Russian colony Considering the rocky relationship between the United States and Russia over the last century, it might not be surprising if you’ve never heard of Fort Ross, the only Russian colony that existed in the contiguous United States, but to generations of Russian immigrants, it has been a touchstone with their community, and one that was almost lost to the familiar tale of budget cut woes. Although Fort Ross had the appearance of a military installation, it was never involved in warfare. For three decades, Russian colonists lived and intermarried with Native Americans, traded with Spain and the United States, and made a living through agriculture, otter-hunting and shipbuilding. “This is a place where a colonial power came in and squatted for 30 years and it was peaceful,” says Tom Wright, a retired schoolteacher who sits on the board of the Fort Ross Conservancy, the non-profit group that organizes programs at the state park and raises money to support it. “Everything sort of came together out here. This was the farthest outpost for the Russians and the farthest outpost for the Spanish.” Despite its unique history and existence as a gathering place for Russian-Americans, California’s plan to shutter the state park caused an uproar from the community that echoed across the Pacific and back to the ears of Olga Miller in New York, of Russian conglomerate Renova, the company that would end up making this year’s bicentennial celebration possible by partnering with the state to keep history alive. With architecture that reminds some of their Siberian roots and folk dances and lectures to keep the culture alive, despite the rocky road confronted by a private company working hand-in-hand with government bureaucracy, it appears this unique landmark will live to see another day.

Breaking: ObamaCare employer mandate to be delayed until 2015 posted at 6:10 pm on July 2, 2013 by Allahpundit We’re well past the creaking stage of ObamaCare. Now we’re starting to hear cracks. Democrats got destroyed in one midterm election because of O’s pet boondoggle. The White House will do what it can to stop history from repeating. The decision will come in regulatory guidance to be issued later this week. It addresses vehement complaints from employer groups about the administrative burden of reporting requirements, though it may also affect coverage provided to some workers. The two officials, who asked not to be identified to discuss the move ahead of its announcement, said the administration decided to wait until 2015 before enforcing the employer mandate in order to simplify reporting requirements and give businesses more time to adapt their health-care coverage. The 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act includes financial penalties on businesses with more than 50 employees that fail to provide health insurance that meets minimum standards and tests for affordability. What happens now, without a law requiring businesses to provide insurance to full-time workers as the cost of coverage — and the cost of complying with other new O-Care regulations — rises? No one knows. We had to pass the bill to see what’s in it, and now we’ll have to implement the bill without an employer mandate to see what it looks like in practice. Presumably a bunch of businesses will simply drop coverage and leave workers to fend for themselves on the new ObamaCare exchanges. Assuming that those are ready by next year. There have been endless stories over the past year or so of business owners scratching their heads and wringing their hands about coping with the burdens of the mandate. (The most fun example involves the Obama-loving film industry.) Gallup polled businesses just a few weeks ago to see how they were handling it. Results: “We were startled because we know that employers were concerned about the Affordable Care Act and the effects it would have on their business, but we didn’t realize the extent they were concerned, or that the businesses were being proactive to make sure the effects of the ACA actually were minimized,” said attorney Steven Friedman of Littler Mendelson. His firm, which specializes in employment law, commissioned the Gallup poll… Forty-one percent of the businesses surveyed have frozen hiring because of the health-care law known as Obamacare. And almost one-fifth—19 percent— answered “yes” when asked if they had “reduced the number of employees you have in your business as a specific result of the Affordable Care Act.” Forty-one percent. That’s terrible under any circumstances but potentially catastrophic next year with the Fed warning that the age of quantitative easing is coming to an end. And an economic catastrophe driven by ObamaCare means another electoral catastrophe for Democrats, no matter how much pandering they do on amnesty and background checks. That’s why the employer mandate is being delayed; more key O-Care pieces, like the exchanges, may yet be delayed too. That’s what failure looks like. So now, instead of Obama’s signature legislation being a drag on Democrats next year, it’ll be a drag on them in 2016 instead. Expect lots of public pronouncements from Hillary Clinton, beginning sooner than you think, about how she admires the president for having tried on universal health care but emphasizing that she would have done things “quite a bit differently.” Via Timothy Carney, here’s an Examiner vid fro

Division of Hematology and Medical Oncology Mount Sinai Oncologists Improve Quality of Care for Cancer Patients with Standardized Criteria for Palliative Care ConsultationIntervention doubled palliative care consultations; lowered in-hospital mortality and hospital readmission rates. New York – October 29, 2013 /Press Release/ –– A pilot initiative conducted at The Mount Sinai Hospital offers compelling evidence that establishing standardized criteria for calling a palliative care consultation improves the quality of care for patients hospitalized with advanced cancer. The investigators saw improvements in the use of hospice services, inpatient mortality, and hospital readmissions among patients offered the intervention. Palliative care is the medical specialty that focuses on improving quality of life for patients and their families in the setting of a serious illness. Palliative care teams provide an added layer of support to patients, caregivers, and doctors by addressing unremitting symptoms, helping with decision making, and coordinating care. The American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) selected a total of four high-impact abstracts, including this one, to feature in an official press briefing for its upcoming 2013 Quality Care Symposium. More than 270 abstracts will be presented at the conference, which will be held in San Diego on November 1-2. In 2012, ASCO recommended offering palliative care alongside standard oncologic care to all patients with metastatic cancer and uncontrolled symptoms. The recommendation was based on findings from seven randomized clinical studies, which showed that integrating palliative care into oncology services led to improvements in symptoms, quality of life, and patient satisfaction, and reduced caregiver burden. Involving palliative care also led to more appropriate use of hospice and intensive care. According to Kerin Adelson, MD, Assistant Professor of Medicine, Hematology, and Medical Oncology at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, and lead investigator on the initiative, palliative care services are often underutilized for cancer patients, even at hospitals such as Mount Sinai that have well-established palliative care programs. "Oncologists often equate palliative care with end-of-life care; to many, calling in a palliative care specialist is an admission of defeat," said Dr. Adelson. "However, failure to identify patients who could most benefit from palliative care often results in inadequate pain control, emotional distress for patients and caregivers, and overuse of aggressive medical interventions. By increasing access to palliative care services, we hoped to help patients clarify their own treatment goals and, in turn, align our clinical goals with those of our patients." In the initiative, all patients hospitalized with late-stage, metastatic solid tumors and uncontrolled symptoms were offered a palliative care consultation. Palliative care consultations increased to 82 percent of patients in the study group, compared with 41 percent of similar patients in the six weeks before the intervention was offered routinely. Readmission to the hospital within 30 days of discharge during the study decreased to 17 percent from 36 percent, and use of hospice services rose to 25 percent from 14 percent after the study began. In addition, the mortality index (expected over actual deaths) in the oncology service dropped dramatically, to 0.59 in the study group from 1.35 in similar patients during the year prior to the study. Length of stay in the hospital was essentially unchanged. "This demonstrates that making palliative care a routine part of cancer care results in improved outcomes and more patient-centered care," said Dr. Adelson. Numerous studies have demonstrated the benefits of palliative care to patients, families, clinicians, and health systems, according to R. Sean Morrison, MD, Director of the Hertzberg Palliative Care Institute at Mount Sinai. Yet, despite the fact that more than 90 percent of hospitals like Mount Sinai have palliative care teams, most patients who could benefit from palliative care do not receive it or receive it too late. "Findings like Dr. Adelson's provide a strong case for making palliative care consultation a core component of cancer treatment from the time of diagnosis," said Dr. Morrison. "Our goal is to use the results of this project to develop interventions within our hospital to ensure that all people with a serious illness, not just cancer patients, are actively screened for palliative care needs and have those needs addressed—either by the primary treatment team or through the extra layer of support of the palliative care service." Based on the success of the pilot, Mount Sinai has expanded its palliative care service so that all cancer patients who meet the criteria used in the study will get the services they need. "The pilot intervention has become our standard of care," said Dr. Adelson. "Widespread adoption of similar interventions could lead to national improvements in patient care for people with late-stage cancer."

These signs of the waning year tell us that once again its time for the year-end word wrap. Just as reporters look back on the year's big stories, and photo editors pick the image that best captures the spirit of the year gone by, lexicographers see the winter solstice as the time to choose the Word of the Year, or the WOTY, as they like to acronymize it.Dictionaries almost never make news, but announcing the word of the year tends to draw the attention of reporters, and news stories move product. So Webster’s New World Dictionary got a jump on WOTY season by announcing its word of the year choice, grass station, at the end of October. Critics immediately complained that there were still two whole months left in the year, plenty of time for something better to turn up. Plus grass stations, places to fill the tanks of biofuel-powered automobiles, don’t even exist yet – they’re still in the realm of science fiction. Nonetheless, the choice represents an improvement over last year’s winner, crackberry, ‘a person who uses a Blackberry or other hand-held phone/computer/pda obsessively.’ Not to be outdone in their haste to make headlines and promote greener vocabulary, in November the word watchers at the Oxford American Dictionary chose locavore as their word of the year, proving once again Dr. Johnson’s claim that lexicographers really are but harmless drudges. A word coined in 2005 that no one has ever heard of, locavore was invented by a group of Californians to mean ‘a person who eats food grown locally.’ It’s a tree-hugging word: the eat-local movement, arguing that home-grown food is better and tastes better, hopes to save the world’s fossil fuel supply by shunning foods that have to be flown in from far away (last year Oxford picked as its WOTY carbon-neutral, another environmentally-friendly word). Eating local may work just fine in California, where fresh fruits, vegetables, dairy products, meats, and wineries abound. But Oxford’s word of the year hasn’t got much traction here in central Illinois, where locavores are restricted to a diet of feed corn and soybeans. The Locavore, a restaurant in Stirling, South Australia, serves nothing that comes from more than 100 miles away, except tourists. When Oxford crowned locavore, browsers everywhere rushed to the Merriam-Webster website to look it up. The dictionary makers at Merriam-Webster, who at least have the sense to wait until the year’s almost over, pick their word of the year based on what their visitors click on, but despite the year-end flurry of interest in locavore, Merriam-Webster chose a word of the year they insist is even more popular, w00t, which is spelled with letters and numbers. W00t, also written w007, woo7, and just plain woot, is actually a noise that people make when they’re excited, a whoop or holler meant to show excitement or appreciation. As Merriam-Webster defines it, w00t is an interjection “expressing joy (it could be after a triumph, or for no reason at all); similar in use to the word ‘yay.’” To which my response is, “big whoopee.” No one really knows where w00t came from, and its spelling is far from standardized, but it is popular among gamers who use leet-speak (look it up), and people tend shout it at rock concerts or when they’re off their meds and riding alone on the bus. Don’t feel bad if you never heard of w00t. Apparently, people who use it do so a lot, while the rest of us do what the lexicographers hope we’ll do when we encounter it, we look it up. However, if you look up w00t on mw.com, you’ll get this message: “The word you've entered isn't in the dictionary.” It’s odd that the Word of the Year isn’t even in the dictionary. Of course MW’s WOTY for last year, truthiness, hasn’t made it into their dictionary's database either. This year’s choices confirm that dictionary-makers aren’t approaching the choice of word of the year with much high seriousness. Grass station, locavore, and w00t. None captures the spirit of 2007. None exemplifies the state of the English language. None comes to mind when anyone lists new and significant words. Previous words of the year include blog, information superhighway, y2k, and metrosexual. As the American Dialect Society puts it, the word of the year “should be newly prominent or notable in the past year, and should have appeared frequently in the national discourse.” Of course, that’s the same group that picked plutoed as its word of the year for 2006. (In case you’re wondering, the ADS defines pluto, “to demote or devalue someone or something, as happened to the former planet Pluto.”)One gets the sense that these words are being chosen at dictionary office parties or three-martini conference luncheons, and while picking the word of the year often benefits from abandoning lexicographical drudgery along with the admonition to do no harm, it shouldn’t provoke the universal response, “Wut?” Watch this space, though, because in the coming days I will announce my choice for the 2007 Word of the Year (my choice for the past two years, roadside bomb, is not eligible to win again, because of term limits). optional post actions 812 views Add Comment 0 comments additional blog services Subscribe (336) Humans hardwired to use the passive voice Is there free Wi-Fi?

Feeding America Joins The Academy Of Nutrition And Dietetics To Support National Nutrition Month Feb. 28, 2013 02:34 PM An apple a day may be out of reach for the more than 50 million Americans facing hungerCHICAGO, Feb. 28, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- This March, Feeding America, the nation's leading domestic hunger-relief charity, is recognizing National Nutrition Month® in honor of the 1 in 6 Americans who lack access, at times, to enough food for an active, healthy life. National Nutrition Month® is an education campaign sponsored annually in March by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics; the campaign focuses on the importance of making informed food choices and developing sound eating and physical activity habits. This year is the 40th anniversary of National Nutrition Month®, and the theme is "Eat Right, Your Way, Every Day.Feeding America is committed to helping food insecure people get the healthy food they need to eat right, their way, every day. Each year, Feeding America serves 37 million Americans struggling hunger, including nearly 14 million children and 3 million seniors. Together, the Feeding America nationwide network of food banks secures and distributes nearly 3.4 billion pounds of food and grocery products annually, including more than 800 million pounds of fresh produce. "Feeding America and our network of food banks strive to provide those facing hunger not only with enough food to fill them up, but also the accessibility to healthful, nourishing foods," said Bob Aiken, President and CEO of Feeding America. "We endeavor to provide our clients with food emphasized in the 2010 USDA Dietary Guidelines, such as fruits and vegetables, protein, whole grains and low-fat dairy, as these types of food are often out of reach for many of the families we serve.""The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics' vision of optimizing the nation's health through food and nutrition is strengthened each March as we celebrate National Nutrition Month. As registered dietitians and dietetic technicians, registered, we are able to translate sound science-based research into helpful information that people can understand and apply to their everyday lives," says registered dietitian and Academy President Ethan A. Bergman. Feeding America food banks are working to ensure our clients have access to the information and skills they need to make smart food choices. More than 80 percent of Feeding America food banks provide nutrition education programs in the communities they serve. These programs range from classes on how to purchase healthy foods on a limited budget, to engaging communities in growing their own fresh food. Our food banks equip clients with the resources they need to secure and eat a healthy diet—not just today, but in the long run too.

HERE ARE SOME THOUGHTS ON ROADSIDE SURVIVAL KITS, from SayUncle. And there's a lengthy discussion thread on the topic at Knoxviews. I carry something similar to what SayUncle lists -- and I highly recommend including tampons or kotex, good for treating wounds as well as the obvious, and a roll of toilet paper, good for, well, the obvious. We keep some "Mainstay Emergency Ration bars" and water in the car too -- advantage being that they are so unappetizing that we'll never eat them unless it's a real emergency. At the very least you should carry something like this or this in your car. None of that will prepare you for a James Kim kind of situation, though, But it's worth noting that your car itself has a lot of things you can work with, including gas in the tank, lines, and carbueretor (if it has a carbueretor). That should let you build a big attention-getting fire. I've heard of people freezing to death on a broken snowmobile with a nearly full tank of gas -- that kind of thing shouldn't happen, and it when it does happen it's usually because people, under stress, don't think clearly. That's where mental preparation is as important as buying supplies. (This is a good place to start.) More on the subject can be found here. UPDATE: "What it means to be a father: More on James Kim. Plus, some outdoor survival advice from Popular Mechanics.

Home > Market Insight: Financial Articles > Market Outlook > Will the Market Crash Again This October? Will the Market Crash Again This October? Don't be spooked by market history or stats Sep 19, 2011, 12:01 am EDT | By Dan Wiener, Editor, The Independent Adviser for Vanguard Investors Just a little over three years ago, Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy protection. The Dow fell 4.4% that day, to 10,917.51, not far from where we are today. The S&P 500 fell even more; 4.6% on the day. Volatility spiked, and the VIX went over 30. Little did you and I know then what we know now: that the VIX would get up into the 80s, and the market would fall another 40% over the next six months. A lot has changed since then, but a lot remains the same. We still have a debt crisis on our hands, only now it’s centered in Europe, with Greece the whipping boy. We still have big banks under pressure, only now it’s not U.S. banks but French banks. At home, the housing crisis is still a crisis. Unemployment, which was 6.1% nationally in September 2008, now runs at 9.1%. At the same time, we should be thankful for just about every job we see created right now. During the last four months of 2008, the economy lost an average of 591,000 jobs a month. As small as it sometimes is, the private sector has been creating jobs every month since March 2010. Another thing that hasn’t changed: investor behavior. Investors continue to do themselves a disservice by trying to time the market and, even more importantly, letting their emotions drive their investment decisions. Since the market lows in March of 2009, investors have pulled nearly $170 billion out of domestic stock funds and added over $650 billion to fixed-income funds. Since the market bottom, U.S. stocks are up 70% while the bond market is up only 20%. I wouldn’t call that a case of good market timing, would you? One more comment on investor timing and money flows: Over the past three months investors have pulled $46 billion out of domestic stock funds. There have only been two other three-month periods when investors have pulled this much money from U.S. stock funds: March 2009 and August 2010. Both times marked an inflection point before a stock market rally. So, the more things change, the more they really do stay the same. Let us hope that in October, things change for the better rather than succumb to October’s somber history. October Omens October’s coming, so be prepared for all the dire warnings that herald its arrival. You remember October, don’t you? In 1987 we had the great crash that took the Dow down 508 points (or 22.6%) on what has come to be known as Black Monday. That put a fire under the popular notion that Octobers were bad for your health, and stock portfolio. Of course, the minute everyone agreed that Octobers were to be avoided, well, they weren’t so bad, with positive returns in about twice as many Octobers as negative returns. Then, of course, there was October 2008. Following on the Lehman Bros. bankruptcy a month earlier, the credit markets seized up, the Fed slashed interest rates, TARP was unveiled and the stock market dove 17.6%, the single worst month of the entire 2008 to 2009 bear market. I’ve got some good news and some bad news on October. The good news is that October isn’t the worst month of the year for investors. The bad news is that the worst month is the one we’re in right now — September. Since 1987, on average, 500 Index has actually gained 1.1% during October. By contrast, the fund has generated only a fractional gain, on average, during September. Does that mean we should sell everything today and buy it back in November? Absolutely not. I’m not a market-timer, and you shouldn’t be, either. Market-timing costs you money (taxes), wasted energy, anxiety and pain — and the occasional redemption fee. And you never know when you’ll have a September or October like we did last year, when the average fund gained more than 12% over the two-month period (500 Index gained over 13%). So remember, in the next few weeks you’re going to be hearing plenty about how terrible October will be for investors. Armed with the statistics I’ve just laid out, you may sleep a bit better at night. I know I will.

Old Fuel Source Lighting Way for Long-Term Energy Investors by Hilary Kramer | February 5, 2012 5:00 am If we sat down and came up with a list of the biggest game-changers in history, I think we would all agree that energy and the advancements in its uses through the years would be at or near the top of the list. We could go all the way back to the use of fire as man’s first attempt to harness natural resources to make a better life. The use of boiling water to produce mechanical motion goes back more than 2,000 years, and the initial steam engine became critical to industry and transportation about 300 years ago. Heck, man even made it to the moon thanks to energy. There is no doubt that energy enables much of modern life. It’s scary to imagine how different our lives would be without the energy to power our homes, appliances, cars, phones, computers, airplanes, industry and so on. Most of us in developed nations take these things for granted, but in many parts of the world, modern energy applications are just now beginning to see the same widespread use. Global economic development is changing the game again, and quite simply, the world needs to find more energy to keep up. According to the U.S. Energy Information Association, total world energy consumption will increase more than 52% from 2008 to 2035. The vast majority of this growth will come in developing nations, where demand is expected to double. But here’s what’s most surprising: Even in 2035, almost a quarter of a century from now, roughly three-quarters of the world’s energy needs are still expected to be met through the same old sources of oil, natural gas and coal — all of which have limited resources. Yes, renewable energy, nuclear power and other alternatives will grow, but not enough to become primary producers of energy. So how the heck will this demand be met? We can’t just run out of energy. The answer: If we won’t have new sources of energy, we have to do a better with the old ones — and that’s where the game is already changing. Now, technological advancements allow us to get to old sources of energy brand new in ways. Enter the newest old fossil fuel, shale (natural) gas. The most exciting opportunity in the energy industry is in shale gas[1], which is natural gas trapped within shale formations. Two new methods of retrieval have dramatically changed the amount of gas that is now recoverable. One is horizontal drilling, in which a traditional well is drilled from the surface down to the targeted rock formation. At the desired depth, the drill bit is then turned sideways to bore a well that stretches through the reservoir horizontally, providing greater access to the gas trapped deep in the producing formation. The second method is hydraulic fracturing, which has become better known as “fracking.” This is a real difference-maker but, as I’ll talk more about in a moment, it still is highly controversial. Water, sand and — here’s the controversial part — chemicals are pumped into the well to open cracks (fractures) in the shale, allowing the natural gas to flow through them and into the well. When used in conjunction with horizontal drilling, fracking enables gas producers to extract gas that was previously off-limits, and allows them to do it at a reasonable cost. Fracking is estimated to be used in 50% of all natural gas wells today to improve production. These new technologies have turned the U.S. natural gas industry on its head. Just five years ago, U.S. gas production was in a permanent decline, so oil companies were spending billions of dollars to import liquefied natural gas (LNG). With demand rising and supply limited, the price of natural gas rose sharply for most of the previous decade. The price per thousand cubic feet (MCF) jumped from $2 in late 2002 to more than $8 in late 2004. It spiked over $10 twice, reaching as high as $14 in 2005 after heavy hurricane activity and nearly hitting $13 in the midst of the oil bubble in 2008. The price today? $2.50. Thanks to new methods, recoverable natural gas reserves in the U.S. alone equal 100 years worth of this fossil fuel. Shale gas, as estimated by the EIA, accounted for 14% of U.S. natural gas supply in 2009, and that number is on its way to 45% by 2035. Some of the largest shale formations in the U.S. are in Texas (the Barnett Shale, which by itself ended the decline in gas production), Pennsylvania (Marcellus Shale), New York (Utica Shale), Louisiana and Arkansas (the Haynesville and Fayetteville Shales). Natural gas is used in the oil-refining process, so it was interesting to note that the U.S.’s top export last year — for the first time in history — was fuel. That’s pretty amazing. Through the first nine months of 2011, the U.S. exported 753.4 millions barrels of fuel — aided by booming demand abroad — and imported 689.4 million barrels. Now, America is still the leading net importer of crude oil in the world, but there’s no denying the U.S. has come a long way since 2005, when it was a net importer of 900 million barrels of fuel. Shale gas is plentiful in other parts of the world too. China, for example, is estimated to have 1,275 trillion cubic feet of shale gas reserves — significantly more than the 862 trillion in the U.S. Argentina has 774 trillion cubic feet, and Mexico has 681 trillion cubic feet (in total, the earth is estimated to contain 6,622 trillion cubic feet of shale natural gas). The Growing Use of Natural Gas Natural gas is the most appealing of the traditional energy sources because it is so much cleaner than coal and oil. Now that the supply is plentiful, it’s also cheaper, and that’s why it will be the dominant theme in energy in the coming years. For one thing, natural gas is now the fuel of choice to generate electricity because it’s so much cleaner than coal and doesn’t have the safety stigma of nuclear power. Natural gas-fired electricity generation is expected to make up 80% of all additional capacity added between now and 2035. As you would expect, alternative uses for natural gas are also being developed to take advantage of all this potential energy, especially in transportation. We won’t see a bunch of natural gas passenger vehicles on the road anytime soon — the manufacturers aren’t ready, and there is a lack of storage and distribution infrastructure — but there is tremendous potential in commercial vehicle fleets. One firm, Pike Research, estimates the total number of natural gas vehicles worldwide will grow nearly 70% from 1.9 million units in 2010 to 3.2 million in 2016. President Barack Obama has pushed for fleets to move to natural gas — most recently in his State of the Union address last week. He said natural gas is the best way for the U.S. to reduce dependence on foreign energy, and he is pushing for a credit to encourage large trucking fleets to shift to natural gas engines. Somebody seems to be listening. On Monday, AT&T (NYSE:T[2]) ordered 1,200 natural gas-powered Chevy vans from General Motors (NYSE:GM[3]), and according to reports, plans to spend $565 million on 15,000 alternative fuel vehicles in a 10-year period. The Debate Over Fracking Fracking is opening up a whole new world of natural gas supply but, as I mentioned, it is also very controversial. Many folks have health and environmental concerns, and I am one of them. For example, there appears to be some evidence that groundwater (drinking water) can become contaminated from the solutions used in fracking. Some scientists have also tried to link fracking as a contributing factor in some of the recent minor earthquakes in the U.S. Even with these concerns, fracking will not stop anytime soon. It has provided jobs at a time when they are hard to come by, it helps lower costs for American manufacturers — which in turn results in cheaper goods for consumers — and the increased supply of natural gas means sharply lower prices that save us a lot of money in heating and utility bills. In his State of the Union speech (a full transcript can be viewed here[4]), President Obama said his administration will take “every possible action” to safely expand shale gas drilling efforts, and in an acknowledgment of the concerns, he proposed requiring gas drillers on public lands to disclose the chemicals they use in fracking. What if there were a way to do fracking safely, without the environmental and health concerns? That would be a real opportunity, especially if companies are one day forced to disclose what chemicals they’re using. This is why I recommend purchasing shares of Halliburton (NYSE:HAL[5]), a company becoming more involved in natural gas by recently developing promising “green” technologies that may reduce or even eliminate some of the big controversies surrounding the fracking process. More on my recommendation of HAL stock can be found here[6].

Download PDF « Back New Asian Focus: China and the Future of the U.S.-Japan Alliance Karasaki Taro and Terashima Jitsuro Q: What is your view of U.S. President George W. Bush's East Asian policy? A: Soon after the six-nation talks on North Korea's nuclear program got off the ground last year, a White House official influential in Asian affairs repeatedly told me that while China planned to exclude Japan from the talks, Washington persuaded Beijing to secure Japan's participation. And the reason was that the administration of Prime Minister Koizumi Junichiro has done so much for Washington in the Iraq war. What this illustrates is that the Chinese element is always entwined at the base of Japan-U.S. relations. Japanese tend to think that Japan-U.S. relations involve just the two countries. But in reality, the alliance, both from a historical and current perspective, is part of a triangle of which China constitutes one corner. People need to realize that. In the early days of George W. Bush's administration, people thought that U.S.-China relations had chilled in comparison to the Clinton administration. But after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, the interests of Washington, of engaging China in the war against terrorism, and Beijing, of condoning, if not encouraging, a visible U.S. presence in the Asian region to keep in check a Muslim surge in its Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region, coincided. As a result, after that incident, relations have become more intense than during Clinton's administration. Q: In this triangular relationship, how should Japan deal with the United States? A: For two decades in the first half of the 20th century, Japanese foreign policy revolved around its alliance with Britain, and for 55 years following World War II, it revolved around its alliance with the United States. So for three-quarters of the 20th century, Japan maintained ties with Anglo-Saxon societies. Many Japanese consider that this country prospered most during those years, with Japan's surge to global prominence through its alliance with Britain, and its rise from the ashes and its economic miracle under the guidance of the United States. However, the biggest weakness of Japan's diplomacy is its failure to develop a strong base for relations worthy of mutual trust with its neighbors. Looking at the 21st century, it is probably necessary to place importance on relations with the United States, while at the same time, building a more durable base for relations with Japan's Asian neighbors. This is what I call shinbei-nyua, keeping faith in America while joining Asia. While it is difficult to envision a single currency, or unified monetary policy as in the case of the European Union, there are moves to create an East Asian community. Japan should take the initiative to promote interface and exchange in the region. Having said that, the alliance with the United States, centered on the security arrangement, is a half-complete relationship. What is outrageous is that from a business perspective, for more than half a century, Japan has yet to form a holistic economic agreement with its partner. While Tokyo is working to set up a free-trade agreement with Mexico, such an agreement with Washington has yet to be put on the table. I think such an agreement is only natural between two economically mature nations such as Japan and the United States. We should rethink the current arrangement, with its unrealistic expectations and overreliance on the security alliance, and appropriately distance ourselves from the U.S. defense structure by phasing out bases and revising the Status of Forces Agreement. We should seek to create a defense cooperation relationship between two "adult" equal partners. The assertion that "if we propose a gradual phasing out of U.S. bases, bilateral relations will sour" is an outdated, fixed mentality. Q: Considering the North Korean threat, is it realistic to consider scaling back U.S. bases here? A: During the Cold War, Pyongyang, with the Soviet Union and China behind it, posed the threat of regime transformation, namely transforming neighbors into communist states. However, today, North Korea is considered a "rogue nation" and the threat posed is more about a reckless use of missiles or nuclear weapons. While the fear of an attack exists, the potency of the threat, which I would call a "bluff threat," diminishes once the attack is actually launched, as it would trigger retaliation, likely resulting in annihilation of the regime. Therefore, it is a sound strategic choice to try to convert North Korea into a constructive member of the global community through engagement. Having said that, the argument that U.S. military presence in the Far East needs to be maintained at the current level of 100,000 troops, of whom 45,000 are stationed in Japan, is based on a fixed, outdated mentality. Even if the U.S. military presence were to be withdrawn to Guam or Hawaii, as long as an emergency dispatch contingent is maintained there, I don't think it would be necessary to overestimate the North Korean threat. Many military experts in Washington share this opinion. But for those who are making the decisions in Washington, a withdrawal from Japan, just as the scaling down of troops in Europe, would result in compressing the scale of the U.S. military as a whole. And with the host nation support budget -- Japan shoulders 70 percent of the bill for U.S. forces, something no other country hosting U.S. forces does -- the thinking is that it is better to maintain forces here, and, therefore, foster the image that a threat exists. Even if forces are withdrawn, if the two countries can come up with a new security agreement that truly defines security of the East Asian region as its mission, then Japan can still make a budget allocation to maintain an emergency contingent for the sake of preventing a power vacuum. That is one alternative, and an important step, which would permit the United States to maintain its presence, cut back on budget expenditure and restore Japan's dignity and independence. Q: The Koizumi administration has loyally followed the United States through the Iraq war. What alternative line should opposition party Minshuto (Democratic Party of Japan) present in the upcoming Upper House election? A: U.S. policy toward the Middle East has always been bound in the frame where Washington has had to support Israel. That has been the fundamental difference between the United States and Japan, which is the only leading country that has never provided military assistance to a Mideast country, nor engaged in military intervention in the region. If Minshuto were to highlight this difference in policy, then it will become clear that there is an alternative to Koizumi's insistence that "Japan has no other choice but to follow the United States." The party can also present a clear alternative by redesigning relations with the United States with a new focus on Asia. Japan has many choices before it. Looking at the 21st century and Japan's principle of renouncing force as a means of resolving conflicts, one alternative is taking the initiative in a peaceful fight against terrorism. The real fight against terrorism should not involve force, but supporting and participating in the International Criminal Court (ICC), and making sure that transnational organized crime and crimes against humanity are properly dealt with. The question is how to nudge Washington to shed its unilateral stand and ensure that it plays a responsible leadership role in the global community. That is the message that Japan should send. It should encourage the United States to engage in creating a system to build a new order; controlling weapons of mass destruction, not through force, but through such means as participation in the ICC. Personally, I would like to say to Americans, "Return to the America that used to be." Japan should not simply follow Bush, but give such advice.

High-profile names on Marlins wish list Albert Pujols, Prince Fielder and Jose Reyes headline the list of potential free agent position players expected to hit the market after the World Series. Already, all three have been mentioned as possible targets of the Marlins. In terms of making inquiries, that may end up being the case. One of the more realistic big names that clearly is on the Marlins’ radar is Aramis Ramirez, the Cubs’ 33-year-old third baseman. Internally, the Marlins already view Ramirez as a possible fit for a lineup looking to mix in an established veteran to a youthful squad that includes Logan Morrison, Gaby Sanchez and Mike Stanton. Ramirez is in the final season of a five-year, $75 million contract, which includes a club option of $16 million in 2012. Now, if the Cubs choose to exercise the ’12 option, Ramirez is free to void it and become a free agent. Ramirez would bring an established defensive presence and a right-handed power bat. The club could see an infield of Aramis Ramirez at third, Hanley Ramirez at shortstop, Omar Infante at second and Sanchez at first. While top prospect Matt Dominguez, 22, is getting some big league seasoning now, the addition of an established middle of the lineup hitter like Aramis Ramirez would give the rookie more time to develop. After a disappointing 2011, the Marlins are expected to be highly active in the offseason, addressing everything from their manager, coaching staff, Minor League operations and big league roster. In 2012, the franchise will unveil a new beginning, in their new, retractable-roof ballpark. With new revenue streams, payroll is expected to jump substantially — from $58 million to around $80 million. For the first time in more than a decade, big name free agents will be sought. The team will look for a power bat like Aramis Ramirez, but the larger focus will be on starting pitching. Specifically, left-handed starters. Already, C.J. Wilson is being talked about. The Marlins, according to sources, clearly will explore signing Wilson. As they will Aramis Ramirez. But the Rangers’ lefty isn’t the only pitcher the club will look at. They basically will check out the possibility of signing all available starting pitchers. As hard as it is for Florida fans to imagine, the possibility does exist that the team will make a pitch for the prize pitcher who could be out there, CC Sabathia, who could decide to opt out of his current contract. As intriguing as it would be for the Marlins to get into, say, the Pujols sweepstakes, chances are they’d look at Aramis Ramirez and C.J. Wilson instead. As disappointing as 2011 has been for the Marlins, the organization already is internally looking at what could be in ’12. The new stadium has created new optimism to lure in established stars.

LIBRARY: Articles Elton John, More Set For Joni Mitchell Tribute by David Basham MTV Website March 23, 2000 Tweet LIBRARY SECTIONS » Articles » Cultural References » Books and DVDs » Photographs » Videos » Copyright Notice Folk-jazz singer-songwriter Joni Mitchell is the latest artist to get the musical tribute treatment from TNT, as Shawn Colvin, Elton John, and Richard Thompson have all signed on to perform for "An All-Star Tribute To Joni Mitchell." The concert will be taped at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City on April 6 with actress Ashley Judd hosting. Judd's sister, Wynonna, will also play the gig, along with Chaka Khan, Cassandra Wilson, k.d. lang, and Diana Krall. Mitchell, who was inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in 1997, has been a primary influence on such contemporary female artists as Sheryl Crow, Sarah McLachlan, and Fiona Apple. She scored a series of hit singles in the '60s and '70s, including "Chelsea Morning" (which inspired the name of President Clinton's daughter), "Big Yellow Taxi," "Woodstock," and "You Turn Me On, I'm A Radio," among others. Organizers for the Joni Mitchell tribute say that more artists and guests will be added to the lineup in the next few weeks, with an edited version of the concert special currently slated to premiere on TNT on April 16 at 9 p.m. (ET/PT) The event marks the fourth in the "TNT Master Series," which began back in April 1998 with "Burt Bacharach: One Amazing Night," and continued the following year with a show feting Johnny Cash. TNT's most recent tribute special was held this past December in Jamaica and celebrated the life and work of reggae legend Bob Marley.

Big Data, Plainly Spoken (aka Numbers Rule Your World) Posts categorized "Significance" The look elsewhere effect Carl Bialik, i.e. the Numbers Guy at WSJ, wrote a nice piece (link) trying to explain something that is very difficult to explain to a general audience... the notion of statistical significance. He discusses this in relation to the experiments that have supposedly proved the existence of the Higgs boson. I won't repeat his entire piece here. I have these thoughts while reading the piece: The physicists talk about LEE - the look elsewhere effect. In statistics, we call this "multiple comparisons". We are typically looking for something out of the ordinary, say the agent that causes an illness. But patients do fall ill by themselves. So when the event occurs, we have to determine if it is explained by something extraordinary or is it just a normal event? We want to reduce the chance of a false positive finding. The harder you look, the more likely we will discover something that turns out to be false. In Chapter 2 of Numbers Rule Your World, I talked about epidemiologists using questionnaires to help unlock the source of e-coli infections. The theory is that if food X is the cause of the outbreak, then a much higher proportion of those patients who fell ill (the cases) should have consumed X than those people who did not fall ill (the controls). The key issue is what is food X? The "multiple comparisons" issue is that if the epidemiologists asked about every possible variation of all food items, to the depth of say Brand Y green-red spinach with 2-inch stems packed in 10-ounce clear plastic bags, then they run the risk of identifying the wrong culprit. Imagine finding the average case and the average control and seating them on the same stage. We ask them how many eggs they have eaten last week. Case said 2 and control said 3. That's not a big enough difference to say eggs caused the case to get ill and not the control. We then ask about hamburgers. Case said 1 and control ate none. Imagine going from food to food to food. Eventually we will chance upon some food item in which one side ate a lot more/less than the other side. Does this difference prove that that food item caused the e-coli infection? Or is it that these two groups of people have certain differences in eating habits regardless of their e-coli status? Still not convinced. Imagine finding the average person wearing a bracelet/wristband and the average person who isn't wearing one. Ask them about what food they ate and go through all the same food items. If the list is long enough, we will surely find something that differentiates them. Is the difference caused by the wristband? That's the danger of "look elsewhere". You will notice that we don't have a "solution" for this problem. All we do is to make the standard of evidence tougher. We just accept that this is a workplace hazard. As Carl pointed out, the medical context is in some ways diametrically opposite to the particle physics context. In epidemiology, data is extremely scarce, and we must look for very big differences to be comfortable about the result. In particle physics, we have lots of data that are generated in controlled experiments, and we are looking for tiny differences. This explains why the standard for accepting a finding is so much higher in physics than in medicine. The other reason is that we believe that the laws of physics are immutable so even tiny deviations can disprove a theory. Biology (economics, psychology, etc.) does not have immutable laws - in fact, there are lots of causes acting together for almost anything, and when it comes to psychology (unless you don't believe in free will), even the same person is likely to act differently when presented with the same scenario twice. This is to say, small variations do not destroy such theories. 07/08/2012 in Chapter 2, Current Affairs, False positive, Food and Drink, Health, Science, Significance, Statisticians, Variability | Permalink | | Losing sleep over a study of sleep deprivation Economist Catherine Rampell who writes for NYT's Economix blog wondered why economists are rated as the #5 most sleep-deprived profession in the country. (link) She noted: Economists in academia, at least, seem to have flexible schedules that should let them get lots of sleep. Maybe a lot of them are grad students scrambling to publish, publish, publish. Or maybe there are a lot of folks like Larry Summers who prefer allocating more hours for work. Reader Jordan G. who alerted me to this article said what I think any reasonable data analyst would notice right away: The authors have listed the "most well-rested" versus the "most sleep deprived" but an inspection shows that the most well-rested occupation gets only about 20 minutes more sleep on average than its sleep-deprived counterpart. That really isn't a whole lot of extra sleep - in fact, there's really not a whole lot of variation in the data presented. I can't help but think that this study is telling us nothing except that most people in these occupations have an average sleep time of about seven hours and some change. Using this chart, is it really meaningful to say that loggers will be more well-rested than home health-aides? I'm not sure why Rampell would comment on what she called "a quirky little e-mail from Sleepy’s, the mattress chain". This sounds like one of the many emails bloggers get from all kinds of people, typically filled with infographics (see this war against infographics post) and inevitably commissioned by self-interestsed commercial interests, that show all manners of amateur analyses. Or it shows an unhealthy interest in tiny effects, which I discussed further here. 05/28/2012 in Business, Cause-effect, Health, Medicine, Science, Significance, Weblogs | Permalink | | Popularizing tiny effects I found my way to Mark Liberman's post at Language Log by way of a comment by Kyle on Andrew Gelman's post about Dubner's response to our Freakonomics article. I've always enjoyed Mark's posts and this one is no exception. His first bullet point speaks to one of my chief worries about Freakonomics-style analyses. For background, Mark raised some doubts about recent academic work that supposedly shows that the left-right asymmetry in the QWERTY keyboard design affects our perception of words. The researchers concluded: "Words with more right-side letters were rated to be more positive, on average, than words with more left-side letters. We call this relationship the QWERTY effect." Mark did some quick analyses which failed to replicate the finding. But his first point has nothing to do with replication. It is valid even if the original research has been done impeccably. Here are the words you must read: 1. The QWERTY effect's size. As far as I'm concerned, and as far as the general public is concerned, the size (and therefore the practical importance) of the QWERTY effect (if it exists) is the key question. This is not an entirely subjective matter — we can ask, as I did, what proportion of the variance in human judgments of the emotional valence of words is explained by the "right side advantage". The answer is "very little", or more precisely, around a tenth of a percent at best (at least in the modeling that I've done). I focused on the effect-size question because the press release said the following (and the popular press took the hint): Should parents stick to the positive side of their keyboards when picking baby names – Molly instead of Sara? Jimmy instead of Fred? According to the authors, “People responsible for naming new products, brands, and companies might do well to consider the potential advantages of consulting their keyboards and choosing the 'right' name." So C&J may not be interested in my subjective evaluation of the effect size, but they promoted their own subjective evaluation by suggesting that the effect is important enough to matter to people choosing names. I felt (and feel) that this represents a serious exaggeration of the strength of the effect; and it seemed (and seems) appropriate to me to say so publicly. Mark's complaint is similar to my response to several results championed by the Freakonomics team, including the "surname effect" as it relates to winners of the Nobel Economics Prize, and the "birthday effect" as it relates to sports leagues. The common ingredients of such analyses are: published, peer-reviewed scholarly work that identifies an interesting effect meeting the standard of statistical significance, followed by the media's amplification and popularization of results that (a) ignore practical significance; and (b) apply a causal interpretation, possibly unknowingly. (a) Practical significance Statistical significance is designed to measure one thing only: how likely would we observe the effect being investigated assuming the effect does not exist (i.e., what's the chance of a false positive)? We need this concept because many observed effects (especially small effects) can happen by chance and therefore should not be attributed to the factor being studied. Statistical significance is necessary but not sufficient for practical value. In other words, a practically meaningful effect must be statistically significant but there are many statistically significant effects that have little to no practical value. Statistical significance will get one published in a peer-reviewed journal but it's not the job of a journal editor to discern pract

DOJ challenges Utah immigration law 23 November 2011 at 10:06 AM ET by Jaclyn Belczyk [JURIST] The US Department of Justice (DOJ) [official website] on Tuesday filed a challenge [complaint, PDF; press release] to Utah's controversial immigration law [HB 497 materials; JURIST news archive]. The measure was signed into law [JURIST report] in March by Utah Governor Gary Herbert [official website] and requires police to check the immigration status of anyone arrested for an alleged felony or serious misdemeanor.The DOJ argues that the law is preempted by federal law because it attempts to establish a state-specific immigration policy. In its complaint, the DOJ said:Utah's adoption of its own immigration policy disrupts the federal government's ability both to administer and enforce the federal immigration laws including as set forth in the Immigration and Nationality Act, and to establish and pursue federal policies and priorities pertaining to, inter alia, the identification, apprehension, detention and removal of aliens unlawfully in the United States. By contributing to this state-specific immigration policy, the challenged provisions of H.B. 497 represent an attempt to regulate in an area constitutionally reserved to the federal government, forcing a conflict with the federal immigration laws and federal immigration policy, interfering with federal primacy in managing the nation's foreign affairs and in balancing the competing objectives of immigration policy, and impeding the accomplishment and execution of the full purposes and objectives of Congress. Sections 3, 10, and 11 of H.B. 497 are therefore preempted.A judge for the US District Court for the District of Utah [official website] temporarily blocked the Utah law in May, less than 24 hours after it took effect, following a challenge [JURIST reports] by the American Civil Liberties Union, the National Immigration Law Center [advocacy websites] and other plaintiffs. The DOJ has filed similar suits challenging immigration laws in Arizona, Alabama and South Carolina [JURIST reports]. Federal judges have enjoined portions of each of those laws, and an appeal of the Arizona law is currently pending before the Supreme Court [JURIST report]. The DOJ is reviewing similar immigration legislation passed recently in Indiana and Georgia [JURIST reports]. Posted in Paper Chase Recent Legal News

It's no coincidence that all are facing tough election campaigns in places where President Obama's popularity lags.

Ecuador Says NSA Leaker Has Asked For Asylum Share Tweet E-mail Comments Print By Scott Neuman Originally published on Sun June 23, 2013 2:20 pm A TV screen shows a news report of Edward Snowden at a shopping mall in Hong Kong on Sunday. Vincent Yu (This story was last updated at 5:17 p.m. ET) Edward Snowden, the former NSA contractor accused of leaking classified surveillance information, has asked Ecuador for asylum, the country's foreign minister says. Snowden left Hong Kong earlier Sunday bound for a "third country," the government in the Asian hub said. He later landed in Moscow. Ecuadorian Foreign Minister Ricardo Patino Aroca, who is on an official visit to Vietnam, said: Earlier, Russia's ITAR-Tass news agency quoted an unidentified official from Aeroflot as saying Snowden would fly to Moscow and from there to Cuba on Monday, with an ultimate destination of Caracas, Venezuela. The anti-secrecy group WikiLeaks also said it was giving Snowden legal counsel and had helped him leave Hong Kong. The government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, or HKSAR, said in a statement that Snowden departed the territory "on his own accord for a third country through a lawful and normal channel." It did not say what his destination was. CNN had a camera trained on the arrival area in Moscow for the Aeroflot flight Snowden was believed to be on, but there was no sign of him. However, The New York Times reported that other passengers on the plane said a black car pulled up on the tarmac after the flight landed; Russia Today, Russia's English-language television station, later reported that the car belonged to the embassy of Ecuador. On Saturday, the U.S. asked Hong Kong, a semi-autonomous Chinese territory, for Snowden's extradition after federal prosecutors filed a criminal complaint last week charging him with espionage, theft and conversion of government property in connection with leaks to The Guardian newspaper about secret U.S. electronic surveillance programs. Despite the extradition request, the HKSAR government said that documents from the U.S. asking for a provisional arrest warrant "did not fully comply with the legal requirements under Hong Kong law." Hong Kong said it had asked the United States to provide additional information, but "has yet to have sufficient information to process the request for provisional warrant of arrest, [so] there is no legal basis to restrict Mr. Snowden from leaving Hong Kong," according to the statement. Hong Kong said it had informed the U.S. of Snowden's departure. Justice Department spokeswoman Nanda Chitre confirmed that Hong Kong told the U.S. that Snowden "departed Hong Kong for a third country. "We will continue to discuss this matter with Hong Kong and pursue relevant law enforcement cooperation with other countries where Mr. Snowden may be attempting to travel," Chitre said. State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki would not specifically confirm reports that Snowden's U.S. passport had been revoked, but said the practice was "consistent with U.S. regulations ... for persons with felony arrest warrants." "Such revocation does not affect citizenship status," Psaki said. "Persons wanted on felony charges, such as Mr. Snowden, should not be allowed to proceed in any further international travel, other than is necessary to return him to the United States." A State Department official said the U.S. has been in touch with countries in through which Snowden might transit or that could serve as "final destinations." WikiLeaks — whose founder, Julian Assange has taken refuge in Ecuador's London embassy to avoid extradition to Sweden on sex crime allegations — said on its Twitter feed that it was assisting Snowden. "Mr. Snowden is currently over Russian airspace accompanied by WikiLeaks legal advisors," it said in a statement issued shortly after Snowden's Aeroflot flight departed Hong Kong. In a later statement, Wikileaks said Snowden "is bound for the Republic of Ecuador ... for the purposes of asylum." The Sydney Morning Herald quoted Assange as saying that he had "great personal sympathy for Ed Snowden's position" and that he was "thankful to the countries that have been doing the right thing in these matters."Copyright 2014 NPR.

Demon Girls Practice to Keep Their Offense Hot After the Break Posted: Wednesday, December 26th, 2012 at 8:30 am Author: KCII Radio- Drew Shradel Print Version The Washington Demon girl’s basketball team finished 8-2 in the first half of their season and shot 33.8 percent from the field and 54.2 percent from the free throw line. But the break couldn’t have come at a worse time for the red hot Demon shooting, as in the last four games they averaged 50.2 points per game, and were shooting just under 40 percent. Washington starts their second half with 5-3 Mt. Pleasant, at Mt. Pleasant, which will mean when Washington starts their second time around in the conference on January 15 they will only travel once. Demon head girls basketball coach Phil Long said after this break, practice won’t be as long as it was. “We try to incorporate a lot of different drills and stuff like that to keep it fresh, so we’re not doing the same old stuff we’ve been doing prior to Christmas. We have a list of 20-30 drills that we use throughout the season, and we do so many pre-Christmas, and then some during Christmas break, and once you get past Christmas you no longer need 2-hour practices, you probably have them down to an hour and a half, and that’s plenty of time to get things done,” Long said. Washington has the rest of this week off and next week until Friday. Filed under: Today's Local Sports

The band's second album, Leave This Town, was released in July 2009. It debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 chart, becoming Daughtry's second number one album in the United States. To date, Leave This Town has sold over 1.3 million copies in the United States and has been certified platinum by the RIAA. The album's lead single, "No Surprise," became the band's fifth top 20 hit on the Hot 100. Their third studio album, Break the Spell was released in November 2011. It debuted inside the top ten on the Billboard 200 chart and has been certified Gold by the RIAA. To date, Daughtry has sold over 7.4 million albums and over 22.6 million digital tracks in the United States,[6] and 20.8 million albums and 53.8 million digital downloads worldwide.[7] 21e3292e-dac8-4609-b57d-402f926aa41f

hide GSK plugs into bioelectronics with $50 million venture fund Thursday, August 08, 2013 3:53 a.m. CDT A GlaxoSmithKline logo is seen outside one of its buildings in west London, February 6, 2008. REUTERS/Toby Melville By Ben Hirschler LONDON (Reuters) - GlaxoSmithKline raised its bet on using electrical signals in the body to target diseases on Thursday with the launch of a $50 million strategic venture capital fund. Britain's biggest drugmaker hopes to have the first medicine that effectively speaks the electrical "language" of the body ready for approval by the end of this decade. GSK said the new fund's first investment would be a $5 million stake in SetPoint Medical, a California company working on implantable devices to treat inflammatory diseases. In all, SetPoint has secured $27 million in fresh financing. Aside from GSK, it has also received cash from Boston Scientific, the venture capital arm of Covidien and existing investors. As reported in April, GSK is also offering a $1 million prize to stimulate innovation in the new field, known variously as "bioelectronics" or "electroceuticals". These initiatives represent a long-term gamble on the promise of a novel kind of medicine that uses electrical impulses rather than the chemicals or biological molecules found in today's drugs. GSK believes it is ahead of rivals in the area. By tapping into electrical signals that form the language of the body's nervous system, scientists hope to address a range of diseases from high blood pressure to breathing problems and, eventually, brain disorders. In the case of SetPoint, the research and development work is focused on new therapies for immune system disorders like rheumatoid arthritis and Crohn's disease. These autoimmune diseases are typically treated with immunosuppressant drugs, while SetPoint uses an implantable pulse generator to stimulate the vagus nerve, which runs from the head to the abdomen, producing a systemic anti-inflammatory effect. The company presented positive results from a proof-of-concept clinical trial in rheumatoid arthritis last November, and believes its system could provide a more convenient and potentially safer alternative to drugs. The idea of treating serious disease with electrical impulses is not completely new. Large-scale electrical devices have been used for years as heart pacemakers and, more recently, deep brain stimulation has been applied to treat Parkinson's disease, severe depression and certain neurological movement disorders. In future, however, the aim is to apply electrical interventions at the micro level by targeting specific cells within neural circuits. That could also lead to tiny implants to coax insulin from cells to treat diabetes or correct muscle imbalances in lung diseases or to regulate food intake in obesity. GSK's new Action Potential Venture Capital fund will be based in Cambridge, Massachusetts. (Editing by Tom Pfeiffer and Jane Merriman)

Future Murky For Arizona's Immigration Law Share Tweet E-mail Comments Print By Corey Dade View Slideshow A defiant Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio answers questions about the Justice Department's lawsuit against him during a news conference in Phoenix last month. Ross D. Franklin Tucson, Ariz., Police Chief Roberto Villasenor speaks about concerns over Arizona's immigration law, in Washington, D.C., in 2010. Kevin Dietsch UPI /Landov Demonstrators line the curb in reaction to the U.S. Supreme Court's decision on Arizona's immigration law, near the Immigration and Customs Enforcement offices in Phoenix on Monday. Art Foxall As Arizona officials prepare to apply the one provision of the state's immigration law upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court, some local authorities doubt they can properly enforce it. "We will do our best to enforce the law. But we are in uncharted territory on this issue," Tucson Police Chief Roberto Villasenor said in a statement released by the Police Executive Research Forum, a nonprofit organization of police chiefs. The group says the law "will seriously undermine local law enforcement." The court's 5-3 decision struck down three key provisions of the law, but the justices unanimously sustained the most controversial part, which requires police to verify the immigration status of anyone stopped for a crime if police have a "reasonable suspicion" that the person might be in the country illegally. Potential Legal Challenges Many law enforcement authorities say the law doesn't clearly define "reasonable suspicion," potentially exposing police to lawsuits alleging misconduct such as racial profiling. The Justice Department, which sued to block the Arizona law, has set up a telephone hotline and email for the public to report potential civil rights violations as the state enacts the so-called "show me your papers" provision. Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, who has become a national lightning rod for aggressively enforcing the law, has said he expects the court ruling to foment criticism that he and other agencies continue to racially profile suspected illegal immigrants. The Justice Department has filed a lawsuit accusing Arpaio's department of racially profiling Latinos. Arpaio denies the claim. He told NPR's Ted Robbins that he's "happy" about the ruling because it "just confirms or affirms what we've been doing anyway." Pima County Sheriff Clarence Dupnik, who opposes the law and has refused to enforce it, told NPR that the ruling is "not going to change the way we've operated." Dupnik's territory covers Tucson and much of southern Arizona. Weakened Arrest Powers The court threw out the portions of the Arizona law that would charge people with a misdemeanor for failing to carry immigration documents; criminalize the act of an illegal immigrant applying for a job; and authorize officers to arrest people believed to have committed a crime that makes them eligible for deportation. Despite their weakened arrest powers, police will be required to contact federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to determine the immigration status of people they stop if officers suspect that they are in the country illegally. The law also says police will check immigration status if it's practical to do so. But authorities say they have no clarity about the factors that establish such circumstances. Police also could face legal challenges from supporters of the law, through language that allows people to sue police for failing to enforce "show me your papers." "We're going to see lawsuits on both sides of this," says Chuck Wexler, executive director of the Police Executive Research Forum. And, Wexler says, police checks of immigration status will damage relationships between officers and illegal immigrants, who will be "less likely to report crimes, to serve as witnesses." Arizona's Governor Stands Firm Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer, a Republican who signed the bill into law in 2010, defended the ruling as a reinforcement of "Arizona's and every other state's inherent authority to protect and defend its people." Brewer has said the law won't lead to racial profiling. But, ultimately, the effectiveness of the law could depend on whether ICE agents cooperate with local police in helping to verify people's status. It appears that cooperation could be scaled back: The Obama administration has announced that it was revoking so-called 287(g) agreements with Arizona police agencies that authorized local officers to act as immigration agents. In addition, the Department of Homeland Security has restated its priority of deporting criminals and halting action against otherwise law-abiding young people. Charles Foster, a prominent Houston immigration lawyer and former adviser to President George W. Bush and then to Obama's 2008 presidential campaign, says he believes federal officials are sending a clear message to Arizona that they won't aggressively pursue "show your papers" violations. Criminals "are the ones they want to arrest and place in deportation procedures," says Foster, who filed a friend-of-the-court brief supporting the Justice Department's challenge of the Arizona law.Copyright 2013 NPR.

Obama Administration Moves To Alter Gun-Buying Rules Share Tweet E-mail Comments Print By Bill Chappell Originally published on Fri January 3, 2014 4:58 pm President Obama speaks in April after the Senate rejected a bill that would expand background checks on guns. The White House is seeking to clarify rules that bar firearm possession due to mental health problems. Federal agencies are proposing new rules for handling gun buyers' background checks, in changes the Obama administration says will "keep guns out of potentially dangerous hands." The changes include a clarification of rules barring firearm possession due to mental health problems. That part of the plan involves the Department of Justice, which is proposing the term "committed to a mental institution," which appears in its gun ownership regulations, be accepted to include "a person committed to involuntary inpatient or outpatient treatment." The Justice Department is also seeking other changes, largely dealing with the definition of mental competence. People found to be incompetent to stand trial, for instance, could be barred from owning a gun whether the determination comes from a "state, local, federal or military court," the agency said. The new proposals will be posted to the Federal Register at 4:15 p.m. today. The Obama administration calls them the latest in its efforts to bolster the National Instant Criminal Background Check System. They also come in the wake of several mass shootings in which mental health problems have been linked to the perpetrators. Another part of the plan centers on the Department of Health and Human Services, which would remove barriers that might keep states from sharing data with the federal background check system. Those problems had been linked to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Privacy Rule. "According to a 2012 Government Accountability Office report, 17 states had submitted fewer than 10 records of individuals prohibited for mental health reasons," the HHS said Friday. The agency added that its new plan seeks a balance between individuals' privacy concerns and the need for public safety. "Seeking help for mental health problems or getting treatment does not make someone legally prohibited from having a firearm, and nothing in this proposed rule changes that," the HHS said. The new rule would allow state agencies and others to report "minimum necessary identifying information" about people who have been involuntarily committed to a mental institution or shown to be a danger to themselves or others. The rules would mean such reports are allowed — not required — according to the agency. "The federal background check system is the most effective way to assure that such individuals are not able to purchase a firearm from a licensed gun dealer," the White House said in announcing the proposals Friday. "To date, background checks have prevented over two million guns from falling into the wrong hands. " As Bloomberg News reports, the political issue of gun ownership was the subject of a seesaw battle last year: "Both sides in the gun-control debate saw victories in 2013, with 28 states passing laws lifting firearms restrictions and 21 plus the District of Columbia expanding them. New York, which had tight gun laws, made them stronger while Alabama, with looser regulations, made access easier. Seven states passed laws permitting guns in elementary schools." Copyright 2014 NPR.

hide UK cost body rejects Novartis breast cancer drug Wednesday, March 20, 2013 7:03 p.m. CDT A logo is pictured on a building of Swiss drug maker Novartis before its annual general meeting in Pratteln near Basel February 22, 2013. RE LONDON (Reuters) - Novartis drug Afinitor, expected to be a big seller for the Swiss group, has been rejected by Britain's health cost agency NICE due to uncertainty over its survival benefits in breast cancer. Novartis said it was "extremely disappointed" by Thursday's draft decision from the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence. Afinitor, or everolimus, is the first in a class known as mTOR inhibitors to be approved for post-menopausal women with advanced hormone-receptor positive, HER2-negative breast cancer. "While the independent appraisal committee acknowledged that everolimus may offer a step change in treatment by restoring sensitivity of the tumor to hormone therapy, the evidence highlighted uncertainty relating to how much the treatment extends overall survival," said NICE CEO Andrew Dillon. "Using the most appropriate estimates, the committee concluded that everolimus is not a cost-effective treatment option for the NHS (National Health Service)." The Novartis drug is also used to treat patients with other types of cancer, including kidney and a rare type of pancreatic cancer. There was better news from NICE for GlaxoSmithKline, whose drug Revolade, or eltrombopag, was recommended for use on the state-run NHS for treating the blood disorder chronic immune thrombocytopenic purpura in certain patients. NICE also backed InterMune's drug Esbriet for a chronic lung condition called idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. (Reporting by Ben Hirschler, editing by William Hardy)

David Edelstein's Top 12 Movies of 2012 Share Tweet E-mail Comments Print By editor Originally published on Mon December 24, 2012 12:47 pm Listen In Friends With Kids, Jason (Adam Scott) and Julie (Jennifer Westfeldt) play two best friends who decide to have a baby together while keeping their relationship platonic — so that the baby doesn't interfere with their own romantic relationships. JoJo Whilden It's time for end-of-year lists. Fresh Air movie critic David Edelstein stubbornly refuses to either place his top picks in numerical order or make his list an even number of 10. Instead, he places his 12 favorite films from 2012 in alphabetical order, from Amour to Zero Dark Thirty. Of the 12 films he picked for 2012, not one, Edelstein says, would he call the "M"-word — a masterpiece. That designation he reserves for the new extended DVD cut of Kenneth Lonergan's film Margaret. When he first saw that movie, Edelstein says, "I thought the first half was brilliant and the second half was a fiasco. Lonergan got hold of it. He extended it by at least 45 minutes. He clarified certain things. I think that the film that exists now on DVD is an absolutely bona fide masterpiece. The story of a young woman's moral and emotional coming of age, unlike I think any that we've seen on-screen in decades and decades. People must rent it or buy it. They must see it, but they must see the extended cut. It really is the greatest film of the year." Without further ado, the list: Amour Beasts of the Southern Wild The Deep Blue Sea Friends with Kids The Gatekeepers Holy Motors How to Survive A Plague Life of Pi Lincoln Oslo, August 31 Pitch Perfect Zero Dark ThirtyInterview Highlights On Amour and director Michael Haneke "I really hate Michael Haneke. I think he's a provocateur. ... He's kind of a sadistic, proto-punk guy and finally, in this case, he's discovered a real-world antagonist that's even more brutal than he is, which is time." On Friends with Kids "It comes on like a formula middle-brow rom-com about a lot of affluent white people, but it also has this very nervous high-strung anxious rhythm. The characters have their backs against the wall. The biological clock is ticking. They are suffering. They have money woes. They don't know, they're very uncertain about the ethics of bringing children into this world. So, I think in a way, that the film captures — better than any film I've seen — so much of the anxiety floating around [about] how we breed now." On Les Miserables "I came to it a virgin and what I saw on-screen was a transcendentally tasteless bombardment, an absolute horror show that in a just world would send people screaming from the theater." On Daniel Day-Lewis as an actor "It's very hard to talk about any year in which Daniel Day-Lewis appears without talking about Daniel Day-Lewis. There's a sense in which he bestrides the narrow world like a Colossus, as someone says of Julius Caesar. Here is someone who combines the sort of method actor's total immersion in a role, and at the same time is just an amazing craftsman, is formally so disciplined."Copyright 2012 National Public Radio.

Judge cancels sentencing in Oregon bomb plot case Comments | Print Source: United States News Originally published: Nov 27, 2013 - 12:22 am PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) - A federal judge has canceled the sentencing date of a Somali-American man convicted of plotting to bomb a 2010 Christmas tree-lighting ceremony in Portland's town square. The Oregonian reported ( http://is.gd/PhExU0) that U.S. District Judge Garr King canceled the date after the government's admission last week that warrantless overseas wiretaps helped make its case against Mohamed Mohamud. The court expects new motions to be filed based on the government's notification, according to a notation in the court docket. "If sentencing remains appropriate, the court will reset the sentencing hearing after it rules on the anticipated motions," the notation says. Mohamud's attorneys and federal prosecutors met in the judge's chambers Tuesday. Federal prosecutors disclosed last week that they offered evidence in court proceedings that was derived from warrantless surveillance of a foreign target outside the U.S. under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978. FISA, as it is known, allows intelligence agencies to physically and electronically eavesdrop on U.S. citizens and legal residents suspected of acting as agents of foreign governments. The law was amended in 2008 to allow the U.S. to electronically eavesdrop on foreign targets even when the surveillance happens to pick up the emails or phone calls of Americans, the newspaper said. Mohamud had been scheduled to be sentenced Dec. 18 for attempting to detonate a weapon of mass destruction. He was arrested Nov. 26, 2010, after pressing a button on a cellphone that he believed would detonate a 1,800-pound diesel-and-fertilizer bomb near thousands of people at the annual holiday gathering. The bomb was a fake supplied by undercover FBI agents posing as al-Qaida recruiters. Information from: The Oregonian, http://www.oregonlive.com

Obama Will Tap Janet Yellen As Fed Chairwoman Share Tweet E-mail Print By editor Originally published on Tue October 8, 2013 5:53 pm Federal Reserve Vice Chair Janet Yellen speaks at an international monetary conference in Shanghai on June 3, 2013. Peter Parks AFP/Getty Images The White House says President Obama intends to nominate Federal Reserve Vice Chairwoman Janet Yellen to chair the Federal Reserve, once Ben Bernanke completes his term in January. If confirmed, Yellen, 67, would be the first woman to head the American central bank. Obama is scheduled to make the announcement at 3 p.m. ET. Wednesday. The Wall Street Journal reports: "The nomination would conclude a long and unusually public debate about Mr. Obama's choice which started last June when he said that Ben Bernanke wouldn't be staying in the post after his term ends in January. "Mr. Obama gave serious consideration to his former economic adviser, Lawrence Summers, who pulled out in September after facing resistance from Democrats in the Senate." Yellen has served as vice chairwoman of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System since 2010. She had previously served as the CEO of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco from 2004 to 2010 and as governor of the Federal Reserve Board during the Clinton years. Bernanke has served as chief at the Fed since 2006. Update at 7:43 p.m. ET. 'Good, Solid, Safe': "She's a good, solid, safe choice," Bob McTeer, who served as the Dallas Fed Chief and is now a distinguished fellow at the National Center for Policy Analysis, a Dallas-based think tank, tells our Newscast unit. Yellen, said McTeer, will certainly be less colorful and less exciting a choice than Summers would have been, but she is capable and already "very popular" within the Federal Reserve system. Yellen, said McTeer, is the "expected" choice. She worked "hand-in-glove" with Bernanke and "most of Washington will recognize that Mr. Bernanke has done an excellent job in steering us away from a second Great Depression back in '08 or '09." McTeer served with Yellen for a number of years and he says that she's a "very deliberate speaker," who has "all her material thought-out and written-out in advance and some people may find it a little bit tedious." Update at 7:15 p.m. ET. Decides When To Taper: The New York Times reports that, if confirmed, Yellen's first test would be to decide when to begin winding down the Fed's economic stimulus. The paper reports that Yellen worked hand-in-hand with Fed Chief Ben Bernanke to institute the policy. The Times adds: "If anything, Ms. Yellen has wanted the Fed to take even more aggressive measures to lift economic growth, believing the risks of inflation are modest. But her views and Mr. Bernanke's appear close enough that markets have considered her potential ascension as a sign of continuity at the Fed." Bloomberg reports that Yellen has made the case for maintaing highly-accommodative monetary policy for the foreseeable future. In 2012 speeches, she said the Fed could keep interest rates at historic, near-zero levels into 2015.Copyright 2013 NPR. To see more, visit http://www.npr.org/. KTEP

Monday, 24 June 2013 13:31 Science Center's Exploradome deflated for good It came down with a... whisper. Unlike demolition, deflation is a little quieter, as witnessed by those who watched the Explorer Dome's 16 year run hosting special exhibits, weddings and parties at the St. Louis Science Center came to an end Monday morning. It will take about six weeks to clear up the area and plans for the next exhibit remain under discussion. Science Center president Bert Vescolani says the new exhibit will feature the area's strengths,"Celebrate what the region does really well and some of the things that are special about this region. We are fortunate to have such a huge science, technology, engineering, math community, so we've got a lot of content and a lot of resources to work with." It took less than ten minutes to deflate the Explorer Dome, which opened in 1997 as a temporary exhibit space. Published in Read more... Monday, 06 May 2013 16:41 Without investor, days are numbered for historic Cupples 7 A building on the national historic registry now has an expiration date. If a buyer does not come forward to purchase the building in the next month, it will be torn down. Cupples 7, at 11th and Spruce in downtown St. Louis, has been designated for demolition after engineers said the building is an imminent danger. Mayor Slay says the only hope for the building is for an angel investor to step forward and renovate it. Cupples 7 was built between 1894 and 1917. Published in Read more...

Doin' What She Likes by Blake Shelton hide Britain says reckless bankers could face jail The City of London business district is seen through a wire fence in London February 28, 2013. REUTERS/Stefan Wermuth By Matt Scuffham LONDON (Reuters) - Bankers who are reckless with customers' or taxpayers' money could face criminal charges and have bonuses and pensions clawed back, according to proposals backed by Britain's prime minister on Wednesday. Many Britons blame bankers' risk-taking for the 2008 financial crisis and subsequent economic slump and were furious when the former boss of RBS left the bank with a pension of almost 17 million pounds even after a state rescue. He later agreed to a cut and was stripped of his knighthood but it was one in a series of banking scandals that increased pressure on Prime Minister David Cameron to get tougher on a sector contributing billions of pounds to the British economy. The parliamentary commission on banking standards he set up last year after Barclays was fined for manipulating interest rate benchmarks said on Wednesday the law should be changed so that bankers found guilty of "reckless misconduct in the management of a bank" could face jail. The UK Treasury said the new rules could be in place before the end of 2015 but lawyers said it would be hard to prove when a banker had taken too much risk or simply made a mistake. Asked in parliament whether he supported the report's recommendations on criminal penalties and pay, Cameron said: "Penalizing, including criminal penalties ... bankers who behave irresponsibly, I say yes." Lawyers doubted that new laws would be effective. "There is likely to be a considerable burden of proof - merely miscalculating or being negligent in an assessment of risk most likely won't be enough," said Michael Isaacs, head of banking litigation at law firm Pinsent Masons. The commission also recommended a new pay code to better balance risk and reward, with bonuses deferred for up to ten years with the aim of preventing bankers taking risks for short term reward, one of the factors blamed for the crisis. It also proposed that the UK financial regulator would be granted a new power enabling it to cancel all bonuses and pension rights not yet paid out to senior executives in the event of their banks needing taxpayer support. WATERED DOWN Banking industry sources said banks were likely to accept many of the proposals in principle, including the threat of criminal sanctions, but will lobby for some to be watered down, including the 10-year deferral on bonuses. "The commission's conclusions contain many constructive proposals to help fix the issues which have afflicted the industry, most importantly in the emphasis on personal responsibility and accountability," said HSBC Chairman Douglas Flint. The cross-party commission, which includes former British finance minister Nigel Lawson and Justin Welby, head of the Anglican church, recommended senior bankers are held personally responsible and regulators granted greater powers. Commission member Pat McFadden said it would be "pressing the government very hard in the coming weeks" to make sure the proposals are implemented. The government has set itself a four week deadline to give a formal response. "I think all of us who were engaged in this process over the last year very much hope this is not a report which is going to gather dust," he told Reuters. The British Bankers Association, a lobby group, said it would work with government and regulators to take forward proposals from what it described as the "most significant report into banking for a generation". UNPOPULAR Bankers are deeply unpopular in Britain where the economy has narrowly avoided a triple-dip recession and is expected to show tepid growth at best through next year. "I think jail sentences would be suitable," Ben Stewart, a 34-year-old cabinet maker said in Whitechapel, not far from the City of London, the traditional financial heartland. "It's fraud a lot of what they've done. Even if it's not legally fraud, I think by most people's moral compass, they'd find it quite distasteful." The commission recommended the industry adopt two new registers for senior bankers and other employees to make sure the most important responsibilities within banks were assigned to specific individuals. The 'Senior Persons Regime' would enable those responsible for failures to be identified more easily and provide a stronger basis for action to be taken against them, the report said. The Financial Conduct Authority, the financial services industry watchdog which took over regulation of banks in April, said it was "learning from the regulatory mistakes of the past". The commission also urged the government to immediately consider a range of strategies for RBS, which is 81 percent state-owned, including a possible break-up. Some commission members, including Lawson, have advocated hiving off RBS's toxic loans into a 'bad bank' leaving the remaining 'good bank' better able to lend to British businesses and households. But Finance Minister George Osborne said such a move would be complicated, time consuming and costly. The report said the government had interfered in the running of RBS and Lloyds Banking Group , in which it holds a 39 percent stake, and said RBS was being held back by having the government as its main shareholder. The level of the government's influence over RBS has come under scrutiny since Chief Executive Stephen Hester was ousted last week with the Treasury's approval. Osborne is set to lay out strategies for returning RBS and Lloyds Banking Group to full private ownership in his annual speech to financiers in the City of London on Wednesday.

hide PayPal co-founder Thiel invests in London start-up TransferWise Monday, May 13, 2013 7:14 p.m. CDT Peter Thiel, entrepreneur and co-founder of PayPal, speaks during a news conference on "nonprofit, nonpartisan organization dedicated to eco LONDON (Reuters) - London-based start-up TransferWise, a peer-to-peer international money transfer business, has secured an investment from Valar Ventures, the venture fund set up by PayPal co-founder and Facebook investor Peter Thiel. TransferWise, which launched in 2011, said Valar Ventures was leading a $6 million funding round, marking the U.S. fund's first investment in Europe. TransferWise co-founder Taavet Hinrikus said having Thiel on board would enable the company to accelerate its expansion plans. "This year we're aiming to add a dozen new currencies and launch the site in new markets including Germany, Spain, France, and Italy," he said on Tuesday Hinrikus and his fellow founder Kristo Kaarmann realised they could exchange pounds and euros between themselves at the mid-market exchange rate, saving on the fees imposed by banks. The business has now transferred more than 125 million pounds ($192 million) worth of customers' money, the company said. (Reporting by Paul Sandle; Editing by Mark Potter)

Giant-Killing Louisville Women Look To Keep Charmed Run Alive Share Tweet E-mail Comments Print By Tom Goldman Originally published on Tue April 9, 2013 5:34 pm Head coach Jeff Walz of the Louisville Cardinals talks to his team during a timeout in the game against the Maryland Terrapins in the second round of the NCAA women's basketball tournament. G. Flume Walz's attire during Sunday's win over California caught the eye — and ire — of UConn coach Geno Auriemma. Tonight, there's a chance for a rare double in NCAA Division I college basketball. As we reported earlier, if the University of Louisville scores a victory in the women's championship game, it will be only the second school to capture both the men's and women's titles in the same year. Connecticut did it in 2004. Coincidentally, it's the Connecticut women who'll try to deny Louisville's bid for a twofer. (The game airs at 8:30 p.m. ET on ESPN.) There's also a good chance that as the Cardinals prepare to enter the New Orleans Arena this evening, their pregame preparation will include a directive from head coach Jeff Walz, to savor it all. That's what Walz has been saying throughout Louisville's charmed run in the tournament, as the Cardinals took down the giant of women's basketball – Baylor — and then followed it up by beating another storied program, Tennessee. And he said it before the semifinal victory over California. "He [Walz] told us before we went out on the court to 'stop for a second at the end of the hallway and look around in the stands and see all the banners and all your fans,' " says Louisville forward Sara Hammond. "He said, 'Just soak it in for a moment, and then when you step out on the court, go have fun and put a smile on your face.' " But history says those smiles will fade and be gone by evening's end. The Louisville women haven't beaten UConn since 1993. Yes, that's 20 years ago. That streak includes a 22-point Connecticut win in the 2009 women's national championship game. Their most recent meeting was in January when the Huskies breezed, 72-58. As any tournament watcher knows, however, January is ancient history when it comes to March — and April — madness. Teams evolve over the course of a long season, and that's certainly the case with Louisville, which is playing its best basketball right now. The Cardinals are confident and cohesive. "Our team chemistry is outrageous right now," says star guard Shoni Schimmel. The bad news for them, though? Connecticut is also playing its best. The Huskies have won their five tournament games by an average of 35 points. Their calling card, defense, has limited those opponents to an average of 49.8 points per game. And the well-rounded and deep UConn team appears to have a breakout player at just the right time, too. Freshman Breanna Stewart didn't play in that January victory over Louisville. The 6-foot 4-inch forward was injured. On Sunday, Stewart established herself as the heir apparent to next-great-UConn-player honors, pouring in 29 points and racking up five rebounds and four blocked shots in a semifinal win over Big East arch rival Notre Dame. Stewart will be tough to cover tonight with her size and athleticism and range — she scores inside and just as easily from three-point range. But Stewart is only one of the obstacles Louisville faces. According to SI.com, the Huskies play an eight-woman rotation that includes five players averaging more than 9.1 points per game. Indeed, before Stewart's trumpet blast of a performance, the skinny on Connecticut was they're not a team of stars, but a collection of really good players, any of which can rise to stardom on any given night. That said, what Connecticut does best is play defense. To repeat, the Huskies have held tournament opponents to an average of less than 50 points per game. Even Louisville head coach Walz acknowledges that low scoring is not going to cut it tonight. "If we have a chance to win," he says, "it's not going to be a 60-55 game. It's got to be 84-83. We might have to try and get up into the 90s if we can." The Cards did hang 82 points on Baylor, the best team in women's basketball the past two seasons. For Louisville to break through against UConn, Schimmel most likely is going to have to work her all-court magic ... and then some. The team also will have to find a way to get guard Antonita Slaughter as open as she was in the semifinal win over Cal. She hit 6 of 10 three-point shots. Louisville will have to play its wide open style and defend waves of UConn players, as well. Here's how Walz sums up tonight's challenge: "We're going to have to play better than we played against Baylor, better than we played against Tennessee and Cal," he says. "We're going to have to play 40 minutes of pretty much perfect basketball." The key words are "40 minutes." As Walz has said several times, this isn't the NBA playoffs. No best four-out-of-seven game series. It's 40 minutes. One night. And so far, the Louisville Cardinals have been the masters of one night. Which leads us to a last laugh... In the comic highlight of the women's tournament, UConn head coach Geno Auriemma, as much a wise guy as he is a great basketball coach, suggested the red-and-white checked, open-collared shirt Walz wore during the California win looked like a tablecloth. And with that kind of shirt, Auriemma said, Walz could work in his new restaurant. Without flinching, Walz said later that he would leave his post at Louisville to go be the head waiter in Auriemma's eatery, and that it would be a great honor. Not to be outdone, Auriemma cracked: "He doesn't dress well enough to work in the front room of my restaurant. So he'll be bussing dishes and taking out the trash in the back until he fixes his attitude." Both coaches, who also talk about their great respect for each other, had a good laugh. But tonight, the odds are heavy that Walz's Louisville Cardinals will be cleaning up --after the Huskies feast on a record-tying eighth women's national championship.Copyright 2013 NPR.

Transcript MELISSA BLOCK, HOST: As we've heard, the University of Louisville is hoping to add to its success tonight, when its women's basketball team faces the University of Connecticut, a perennial power. If the Cardinals win, Louisville will be only the second school ever to have a men's and women's basketball championship in the same year. The other team to do it: UConn in 2004. NPR's Tom Goldman is in New Orleans covering the women's final. And he joins me now. And, Tom, let's talk about how this upstart Louisville team got to this point. They have had an amazing run. TOM GOLDMAN, BYLINE: Charmed, amazing, whatever adjective you want to give it, Melissa, it really has been. And it all started and it really is all focused about their stunning win over the Baylor Lady Bears. You know, going into this tournament, the only real question, in what seemed to be a very predictable women's field was, you know, how are people going to beat Baylor. And when they answered that there's no way to beat Baylor and their star, 6'8" center Britney Griner, they said: well how close can anyone get. And then here comes Louisville, thanks in large part to the great Shoni Schimmel, the junior guard for the Cardinals, her sister, Jude Schimmel, and a number of other contributors, they did it - they beat them by a point. And then they went on to beat Tennessee and they beat Towel, and here they are in the finals. It really is quite a story. BLOCK: Here they are but here's what they're going up against, Connecticut which has never lost a title game. They've won seven times, they're looking for their eighth and they have beaten Louisville the last 12 times they've played. GOLDMAN: Yeah, that's right - 1993, Melissa, that was the last time Louisville beat UConn and that's 20 years ago. UConn, you know - as I mentioned, Louisville has been the darling of this tournament, as we've been talking about. Connecticut has been, even though it's tough for such a great program to be under the radar. They really have kind of been under the radar, but they have just dominated their opponents in this tournament so far. The five games they played, they've won by an average of 35 points. Their defense, which is really their calling card, has limited those opponents to an average of 49.8 points per game. That's good defense. BLOCK: Well, each team has key players to watch. For Connecticut, its freshman Breanna Stewart. And you mentioned Shoni Schimmel for the Louisville Cardinals. We heard about her yesterday on the program, Tom. The Umatilla Thrilla, they call her. She's a Native American from the Umatilla Tribe. Talk a bit, Tom, about what each of these players brings to their teams. GOLDMAN: Well, number one, Breanna Stewart is a really tough match-up for Louisville. She 6'4," very athletic and she can score inside and outside, you know, with her three-point shooting. She showed that in the semifinal win over Notre Dame, which was really her kind of coming out party. On the Louisville side, you've got, as we've talked about, Shoni Schimmel. You've also got Antonita Slaughter. And you can bet that Connecticut won't go to sleep on Antonita Slaughter, another guard for Louisville. She had made six of 10 three-point shots in the semifinal win over California. She was getting wide open. You can bet UConn will do everything it can to make sure it's got a hand up, and she won't be as open. BLOCK: Well, Tom, the men's final last night was about as exciting as it gets, Louisville versus Michigan. Have a great time there in New Orleans tonight. I hope it's a great one. GOLDMAN: Thanks a lot, Melissa. BLOCK: That's NPR's Tom Goldman. He's covering the women's NCAA championship game. (SOUNDBITE OF MUSIC) AUDIE CORNISH, HOST: This is NPR News.

NYC Commuter Train Was Well Above Speed Limit Before Crash Share Tweet E-mail Comments Print By Bill Chappell, NPR Originally published on Mon December 2, 2013 5:53 pm Search and rescue teams work at the scene of Sunday's passenger train crash in the Bronx. The train crash killed four people and injured dozens more. Update at 6:50 p.m. ET. Speeding Into Curve; A Mile Or More To Safely Stop: A commuter train headed into New York City was traveling at 82 mph Sunday morning when it entered a curve where the speed limit was supposed to be 30 mph and derailed, National Transportation Safety Board investigators have concluded. Four people on the train were killed and at least 60 others were injured. The engine's throttle wasn't put into the "idle" position until about 6 seconds before the locomotive came to a thunderous halt as passengers cars flew off the rails, NTSB board member Earl Weener told reporters at a news conference late Monday afternoon. That cut of power was "very late in the game," he said. The engine's brakes, investigators believe, weren't fully applied until about 5 seconds before the engine came to a stop. Investigators have also determined that the train was traveling above the speed limit in the zone immediately prior to the curve. In that zone, the speed limit was 70 mph, Weener said. As for whether the accident was caused by human or mechanical error, Weener said it's too soon to say. He did note that the train had made 9 stops prior to the derailment. Shortly after 5 p.m. ET, Weener told CNN that data indicate that 2 minutes before the crash the train had been going about 60 mph. It "accelerated into the curve," he said. Later Monday, The Associated Press reported that "it takes about a mile for a train going 70 mph to [safely] stop, according to Steve Ditmeyer, a former Federal Railroad Administration official who now teaches at Michigan State University." Our original post — "Investigators Examine Wreckage Of Deadly New York Train Crash" — and earlier updates follow: The investigation into the cause of a New York train derailment that killed four people has begun, even as workers sift through wreckage to be sure they've found everyone on the seven-car train. At least 60 people were injured in the crash Sunday morning. The train's black box recorder has been found. "The National Transportation Safety Board sent a team of investigators who arrived on Sunday and immediately began documenting the scene," according to New York's transit agency, MTA. "Metro-North is cooperating fully with that investigation." As of Monday morning, investigators are looking at why the commuter train that had been heading to Grand Central Station failed to slow down enough to negotiate a curve in the Bronx, an area where the speed limit drops from about 70 mph to about 30 mph. The train's engineer has said he tried to apply the brakes, the New York Daily News and other news outlets report. Update at 4 p.m. ET. News Conference Shortly: The NTSB is to hold a news conference within the next few minutes about its investigation so far. We'll update with news from it. Update at 9:55 a.m. ET. The Victims' Names: All of those killed were from New York, MTA Police say. The agency identified the dead as Donna Smith, 54, of Newburgh; Ahn Kisook, 35, of Queens; Jim Lovell, 58, of Cold Spring; and James Ferrari, 59, of Montrose. Our original post continues: Sunday evening, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said federal investigators should look at procedures on the train line. And he dismissed early speculation that the track's curve, which comes just before a station, was the culprit. "The curve has been here for many, many years. Trains take the curve every day, 365 days a year. So it's not the fact that there's a curve here," Cuomo said. "We've always had this configuration [but] we didn't have accidents, so there has to be another factor, and that's what we want to learn from the NTSB. If there's a change that the MTA can make, that's great, but first we have to get the results of the investigation. It can't just be the curve." The Metro-North Railroad train was carrying more than 100 people when it went off the rails, sending uncoupled cars into the trees that line the track near the convergence of the Harlem and Hudson rivers. The passenger cars were being pushed by a diesel locomotive. Late Sunday and into the night, officials were using cranes and other heavy equipment to set the scattered cars upright and clear the wreckage. From NBC New York: "The train's black box was recovered Sunday evening and will be analyzed for data. Sources say investigators are looking at operational error and mechanical failure as possible causes of a train taking the curve too fast." The train's operator, William Rockefeller, 46, is among those injured in the crash, reports the New York Post. "The guy's distraught over the accident and the people who were injured," the paper reports, citing a source. The New York Times describes other passengers as "department store employees who were bracing for another busy after-Thanksgiving day, tourists from Texas who wanted to climb the Statue of Liberty, a police officer moonlighting as a security guard on his day off." As Dan Bobkoff reports for Morning Edition, the crash comes after several other less-serious incidents on the same train line. "This past summer, a freight train carrying trash derailed, causing significant damage to the track," Dan reports. "At a Sunday news conference, Earl Weener of the National Transportation Safety Board was asked whether the freight derailment contributed to the latest accident." "The answer is, we'll be looking at that, but at this point in time we have no indication that it's a factor," Weener said. As the work week begins, New York transportation officials are adjusting their schedules to help the reported 26,000 people who use the Hudson Line tracks on an average weekday. Sunday's crash occurred in an area called Spuyten Duyvil, a Dutch name with several interpretations. One of them is "Spouting Devil," a reference to the nearby water's churning currents; others include "Spite the Devil," a phrase widely attributed to writer Washington Irving.Copyright 2014 NPR.

Obama App Showing Nearby Democrats Has Some Concerned About Privacy Share Tweet E-mail Print By editor Originally published on Thu August 9, 2012 9:20 am A screenshot of the new Obama campaign app. Pro-Publica A mobile phone application released by the campaign of President Obama last week has some privacy advocates crying foul. The app taps publicly available data and allows you see registered Democrats near you. It shows the Democrats' first name, last initial, age and their home address. The Washington Post reports today that the tool brings canvassers into the future, allowing them to ditch the clipboard and the field office. The paper adds: "The free app, introduced last week, has drawn the ire of some privacy advocates, who note that anyone — not just legitimate campaign volunteers — can download it. The information is publicly available elsewhere, privacy advocate Shaun Dakin said, but the easy access of the app is still a little creepy. "'It doesn't make it right just because it's legal,' Dakin said. 'Anybody can get this. There's no way to prevent anyone from downloading this.' "Others defended the Obama team's right to publish the data. With more information than ever at the fingertips of political campaigns, experts said such initiatives will no doubt proliferate." Pro-Publica, which first reported the story, notes that in the past canvassers had to stop by a field office and ask for a printed list. The Obama campaign defended their decision to release the app publicly. Pro-Publica reported: "While the app makes voter information instantly available, it displays only a small cluster of addresses at a time. It has built-in mechanisms to detect when people are misusing the data, 'such as people submitting way too many voter contacts in a short period of time,' the spokesman said. "'The campaign is strongly committed to ensuring the safety and privacy of the public and follows up with appropriate action, including alerting appropriate authorities if necessary, in any case of abuse or inappropriate behavior,' said the [Obama campaign] spokesperson. 'Any voter who requests not to be contacted again is immediately removed from any [list] provided to volunteers.'" ITWorld spoke to Shaun Dakin, the CEO of the National Political Do Not Contact Registry, who called the app a "total privacy fail." "There is NO Reason why the app needs to show this information to the public for canvassing purposes," Dakin said. "Now I know the age of my neighbors, I know if they are likely Dems, and there is no way to opt out of being part of the system (as far as I can tell)." The New York Times previewed the app in late July. They report that volunteers can report the response of the person being canvassed and it is sent electronically to the campaign headquarters. The campaign said it hoped the app would increase the number of volunteers. "Our focus remains on helping make grass-roots organizing as easy and accessible as possible for the volunteers and supporters that are the heart and soul of this campaign," Stephanie Cutter, the deputy campaign manager for Obama, told the Times. "That's why we designed our new app to help break down the distinction between online and offline organizing."Copyright 2012 National Public Radio. To see more, visit http://www.npr.org/.

Americandy: Sweet Land Of Liberty The Modjeska: A Star On Stage, Sweetly Remembered Share Tweet E-mail Comments Print By Rick Howlett Originally published on Sat July 21, 2012 9:20 am The modjeska owes its name to a Victorian-era candy maker's infatuation with a Polish actress. Melisa Goh Muth's Candies sells thousands of pounds of Modjeskas annually. Each marshmallow is dipped in a secret caramel mixture by hand. In the back room of Muth's Candies in Louisville, Ky., Jonathon Skaggs and Bobby Masterson are busy dipping marshmallows into a copper pot. The pot is filled with a top-secret hot caramel mixture. Skaggs and Masterson tap the excess golden caramel off each candy before placing it on a board to cool. Masterson says it's a rhythm repeated hundreds of times each day. "They're good ... they're a big-time seller in here in Kentucky, especially right here in Louisville," Masterson says. "There's a lot of people that come and get 'em." The soft, sticky candy was created by Anton Busath, a French confectioner who immigrated to Louisville. The candy maker spent years perfecting his "caramel biscuit." He gave his chewy creation an evocative name: the Modjeska. Busath was enamored with Polish actress Helena Modjeska, who performed in theaters near his downtown Louisville shop in the 1880s. The Shakespearean actress was hugely popular in the United States. Busath's candy "was a way of encouraging — consuming — your actress," says Beth Holmgren, a Duke University professor who's published a biography of Helena Modjeska. Modjeska — like the sweet that bears her name — still has a dedicated following today. "There are lots of things named after her, [but] the candy is the only thing that's still sold," Holmgren says. "It is a heavenly piece of candy," says Rose Ann Stacy. Her family has run Muth's Candies, on Louisville's East Market Street, since 1921. Other stores in the region make their own version of the Modjeska, but Muth's lays claim to the original recipe. After Busath's store was destroyed by fire in 1947, his son gave the recipe to Muth's. The East Market Street neighborhood fell on hard times in the 1960s and 70s, when large numbers of city dwellers and business owners moved to the suburbs. But the area has been making a comeback in recent years, and art galleries, restaurants and antique shops have opened. It even has a new nickname, "NuLu," short for New Louisville. With some help from the Modjeska, Muth's has withstood the neighborhood's many changes. The candy remains the shop's most popular treat — thousands of pounds of Modjeskas go out the shop's doors each year. Guests in some Louisville hotels even find a complimentary Modjeska on their pillows. And Stacy is always happy to unwrap a free sample for visitors who stop by the shop. She loves watching people melt the first time they try the buttery caramel. "If anybody has ever lived in Louisville ... they call and get them," Stacy says. "Because they have ... to have their Modjeska fix." Just such a Modjeska craving brought Amy Harty into the store recently. She's a Louisville native who now lives in New England. "They have a very special flavor, nothing of which I've ever had before," Harty says. "And people say the same thing in Boston. They're just like, 'Wow, these are so good!'"Copyright 2012 Louisville Public Media. To see more, visit http://www.prp.org/. Related program:Weekend Edition

Capturing the President for Posterity Jean-Antoine Houdon, Portrait of George Washington, c. 1786, purchased with funds provided by Anna Bing Arnold In honor of the historic inauguration of Barack Obama as the forty-fourth president of the United States, a marble bust of the nation’s first president, George Washington, is now on view in LACMA’s American art galleries. The bust was not made, however, by an American artist but by a French one—Jean-Antoine Houdon (1741–1828). Believing sculptors in colonial America were then too inexperienced to represent Washington for posterity, Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin led the effort to find the best sculptor in Europe for the commission. The celebrated young Frenchman was chosen partly because he insisted on crossing the Atlantic to sculpt Washington in person rather than relying on existing portraits, a common practice at the time. In October 1785 Houdon arrived at Washington’s home, Mount Vernon, where he measured Washington, made a plaster mask of his face, and executed a clay bust. From these important studies Houdon carved this marble bust, one of five he completed. Gilbert Stuart, the painter whose later portraits of the first president are the most famous (one graces the U.S. dollar bill), greatly admired Houdon’s vivid likeness of Washington. Stuart noted, “Houdon’s bust came first… when I painted him, he had just had a set of false teeth inserted, which accounts for the constrained expression so noticeable about the mouth and lower part of the face. Houdon’s bust does not suffer from this defect. I wanted him as he looked at the time.” In our era of instantaneous and global dissemination of images and non-stop media coverage of American presidents, it is interesting to consider how prized Houdon’s representation of a younger Washington was, nearly a half century before the invention of photography. Acquired for LACMA in 1976 in celebration of the nation’s bicentennial, Houdon’s bust of Washington is still seen as admirably fulfilling the daunting mandate of Jefferson’s original commission: “The statue shall be exactly that of life.” This entry was posted on Tuesday, January 20th, 2009 at 5:00 am and is filed under Uncategorized.

Home Sports Lifestyle Business Community Education Opinion Taste of Soul Verizon Basketball Sports Byron Scott shares off-court wisdom with Centennial High Students Published on Friday, 11 October 2013 12:57 Written by Derek October 10, 2013 Los Angeles Lakers shooting guard Byron Scott shared his experiences as a professional athlete and spoke about the importance of a college education, Monday, September 30, in Centennial High School’s library. Sponsored by nonprofits Hitting the Right Note and Musication, Inc., the hour-long program provided over 30 students, many of them young athletes, with the opportunity to interact and learn from the NBA great. Students listened as Scott, who recently coached the Cleveland Cavaliers, discussed growing up in Inglewood, how he was mentored by Centennial’s Principal Jesse Jones, and realizing the value of an undergraduate degree. Principal Jones said he is proud of Scott’s success and wanted his students to learn the realities of the sports business. “I wanted them to hear about how much hard work, sacrifice, and intelligence it takes to make it as a professional athlete,” he said. “Centennial is grateful to have Byron here, and on a personal level, it means a lot to reconnect with one of my former students from my days as principal at Morningside High School in Inglewood.” Jones added, “I think that because Byron comes from a community much like Compton, it enables these kids to relate to his experiences. It helps them see the potential within themselves.” For Scott, who will begin a new career as a broadcaster alongside former Lakers player Luke Walton on Time Warner Cable’s SportsNet, any opportunity to give back to local communities is time well-spent. “Mr. Jones was my principal in Inglewood. Today was a reunion for us, and it was great to see him again. He taught me so much when I was one of his students,” he noted. “The biggest thing for me was to come here and educate these young people, especially the ones who are athletes trying to make it where I’ve been. I wanted to let them know what it takes to get there, what it means to be there, and what it takes to stay there.” Scott said he credits his education with his professional success, and encouraged all students in attendance to find a subject they would like to major in. “I wanted to motivate them to fulfill their dreams, but also to let them know that they should never forget about their education. They need to know that the most important thing right now is to graduate high school, go to college, get a degree, and everything after that is gravy,” he said. “I went to Arizona State University, where I majored in telecommunications. It all applies to everything I do. I want Centennial’s students to understand that.” < Prev Category: Sports Videos

Photo: Leslie Lyons Paul K. & the Weathermen perform at 9 p.m. Sunday, July 11 at Bluegrass Catastrophe at the North Stage, part of the ninth annual Forecastle Festival. The wind blows (or whatever) Paul K. gives up his quest for acceptance Paul Curry During the ’90s, Paul Kopasz was a self-described media whore, trying to get ink anywhere he could. He’d talk to anybody if it might further his efforts to reach an audience. But it didn’t work. As many times as he got written up, it seemed like his efforts were useless. And then a friend shared a story about a different attitude toward this business of music. “It was Brett Ralph that told me about a conversation he’d had with Ronnie Hawkins one night in a bar,” he says during a recent phone interview. “Beyonce, or somebody like that, was on television accepting an award for some multi-million-selling album, or something, and Ronnie Hawkins says to Brett, ‘Where’s my award? I’ve sold one copy of 1 million different records. That should be worth something!’” Since then, Paul has more or less given up on reaching the mainstream, preferring to embrace his curmudgeonly muse in a death grip that leaves no room for compromise or a sideways glance. Over the last decade, after the 1999 release of Saratoga, his last album for Alias, he went to ground. With Leigh Farnsley, his girlfriend and business partner, he started Farnsley Records and began recording his songs at home. He’s released a couple albums, like the recent Gavage Vol. 1, but you aren’t likely to run across a copy unless you are making a concerted effort. Distribution has been handled almost exclusively by the artist himself. There may be copies in the bins of some of the local record stores but not in the listening stations. “It’s like it’s 1983 all over again,” he says, referring to the do-it-yourself aesthetic that dominated in the Reagan era. That was also about the time Paul came to Lexington from Detroit, on a debate scholarship to the University of Kentucky. Back then, the live music scene was characterized by coffee shops and hole-in-the-wall bars, places where a solo singer could make a few bucks here and there, but nobody was paying to see bands. In the later part of the decade, Paul started to branch out, making fairly frequent trips to Louisville with his band, the Weathermen. There for a while, he became something of a local fixture, drawing from a seemingly limitless pool of original compositions and brilliantly selected covers, working an expressive territory that has often been compared with Townes Van Zandt, Lou Reed and Merle Haggard. And if most of the last decade had passed somewhat quietly, a series of events that began last fall have pushed Paul’s creativity into high gear. A serious health scare put him in the hospital for a month, and upon his release, his girlfriend was involved in a minor fender-bender that triggered a seizure. She currently requires around-the-clock medical attention in a residential facility. Far from being discouraged by these events, Paul dug into his creative processes. He’s written and recorded more than 50 songs since last November, in addition to a constant stream of prose pieces. Meanwhile, he’s been showing up in the clubs, and again, it seems like his bag of songs is overflowing with variety, gravity and passion. Now, as in the early ’80s, Paul has found plenty of work, playing solo shows with little or no notice to fans or anybody else, and sometimes he finds extremely lucrative gigs playing private parties. At one recent show, he played a new song written for a female meteorologist, recognizing how similar his role is to hers. And at another appearance, he played Hoagy Carmichael’s “Stardust” as a tribute to Farnsley, Carmichael’s great-niece. Longtime fans will want to watch out for Paul’s upcoming performances. In particular, his appearance at Forecastle, which will feature his final billing as Paul K. and the Weathermen. Stalwart collaborators Smith Donaldson (bass) and Tim Welch (drums) will back him for this special event. Login or register to post comments

HomePC ApplicantsFind a MentorPC Recruiters Stories by Country A-L Stories by Country M-Z Safe Zone Trainings ← The Gay Scene in Russia and Kazakhstan Believing AIDS is Real → The Unexpected in Mauritania -Jay Davidson, PCV Maybe you saw the same message on the lgbrpcv Yahoo listserv that I noticed in May: a Peace Corps invitee describing himself as “scared and disappointed” at the prospect of serving in a Muslim country that would be “rigid and stifling.” The author was out to his PC recruiter. He had correctly surmised that gay life would be different in an Islamic Republic than in the United States. He had every reason to be concerned for his well being and to wonder to the listserv group if he would possibly have a greater chance for success in an environment where his very existence is not punishable by death. Anyone who has lived or traveled abroad has seen first-hand that there is a vast difference between the reality of any given country and the way it is portrayed in the media. I was hoping – no, depending – on that being the case for me when I received my invitation to serve in Mauritania. The day after the invitation arrived, I looked on a world map to see what the flag looked like. When I recognized the star and crescent that appears on the flags of many Islamic nations, the first sensation I felt was queasiness, a nauseous feeling in my stomach. Maybe this wasn’t such a smart idea after all. Why not just retire from teaching and take it easy in San Francisco, enjoying life in what many consider to be the global epicenter of gay life. Within a day I was filled with a different feeling altogether. My inner voice – the one that I had learned to trust when it spoke – told me, “Accept the invitation. You will teach what you need to teach and learn what you need to learn.” It was with that leap of faith that I plunged into the maelstrom of activity that is needed for both retirement and leaving home for two years. Joining the Peace Corps fulfills my ambition that I have had since President Kennedy started the organization. I was 13 years old at the time, and very impressionable. The only question for me was when it was going to happen – never if. In 2001, when my partner of eleven years informed me that he wanted to be out of the relationship, I climbed out of my complacency and took a look at what would be next for me. It turned out to be the Peace Corps. During the month that preceded our departure, nineteen invitees found each other on the Internet and became active on a listserv. This was my first opportunity to be out at large. As members of my training class introduced ourselves, I seized the opportunity to describe myself as a gay Jewish vegetarian. When we met in person at staging, word got out in the group. I hadn’t spent so much time with twenty-year-olds since I was one myself. These people had grown up in a social environment that was markedly different from the early 1970s when I was their age. They all knew gay characters on television and in the movies; they have lesbian sisters and gay brothers; they attended colleges with active gay student unions. For most of them, my being gay was a very big No Big Deal. It was a good thing everyone knew, because it was from one of my fellow trainees that I had the invitation to meet Mamadou, my first gay Mauritanian. Mamadou cruised fellow trainee Bill near the Senegal River in Kaédi, our training city. Bill took it in stride, probably fortified after having lived in San Francisco himself, when Mamadou told him, “Je suis bisexuel.” A nice looking straight guy like this must have been hit on at least once, and didn’t unravel. All he needed to do was say, “Je suis pas comme ca.” And then, of course, he told me what happened. I persuaded Bill to introduce us. I met Mamadou just a few hours before swearing in as a volunteer. As luck would have it, he was there in Kaédi to visit extended family. He really lived in Nouakchott, the capital, where I was going to be living. Once Mamadou found out where I lived, there was no holding him back. Not only did he come to visit without notice, as is the custom here, but he usually brought a friend with him. This built up the network of gay men I met. Meeting this way was a good way to meet men, as there are no gay bars, social networks or known cruising areas for making contacts. At the same time, though, I shouldn’t have worried too much about meeting people. Public displays of affection are discouraged between women and men, but they are perfectly acceptable between men and between women. One of my favorite scenes is two soldiers, uniformed, walking down the street holding hands. An army of lovers cannot fail. Even without Mamadou, however, there have still been other opportunities, all of which are unexpected: the taxi driver who smiled at me and put his hand in my lap; the hotel manager who offered to show me more than a room; the kickboxing instructor who was with his wife when we met, and lost no time telling me he gives massage; the shop owner who, upon finding out I was an American, told that the best part about his visit to his brother in “Texas, Dallas” was that he could see sexy movies where he sat in his own little room and invited others to join him. I want to make myself abundantly clear that this is certainly not the liberated life that Americans are used to leading. At the same time, though – at least for me living in the capital – this is not so bad. Not bad at all. Probably the most amazing part about the attention that I am getting has to do with the fact that the people who seek me out are significantly younger than I am. Most of them are men in their twenties, thirties and forties. You may not believe this, but I was not this hot a commodity in San Francisco! Nor do I think most 56-year-olds are, except for their highly specialized niche market. Two factors contribute significantly to my being in the position where I am. The first is that I am in a culture in which age is revered and respected, which is just the opposite of life in the United States. The second factor is related to the first, and that has to do with the fact that because I have a significant part of my work life behind me, I have come to Mauritania with experience that the Ministry of Education wants to tap into. The Ministry is in the capital, so that is why I am too. That’s the Experience Factor – the one that makes a difference in where any volunteer gets placed, based on matching skills to needs. When I was teaching I consistently encouraged the parents of my first-graders to create a home environment that was conducive to lifelong learning. I asked them to set examples for their own children by keeping lots of books at home and turning off the television set so that they could read, talk, and play with their children. Being here, I am trying to practice what I taught. I continue to teach. I also continue to learn. And to grow. Jay Davidson maintains his own web site with weekly postings.

European Journal of Psychology of Education September 2013, Volume 28, Issue 3, pp 923-944 Temperament in the school context: a historical review Ma Angeles Fernández-Vilar, Jose Antonio Carranza … The majority of studies on temperament in the educational context originate from the Anglo-Saxon culture, where there has been an increase in research in this field over the last four decades. The objective of this paper is to contribute towards systematizing of relevant findings that have been carried out in the educational context from the field of temperament over the last decades. This is a theoretical paper, where we present relevant findings obtained in the relationship between temperament and school performance, in both academic (academic skills and performance) and social areas (social–educational adjustment in the classroom). The contribution of temperament to the school performance is important, although differences can be seen in relation to the age of the children and the contents of the curriculum. In general terms, the dimensions of temperament that have more direct relationships with the academic outcomes are adaptability and attention persistence. Also worth noting is the role of negative emotionality which has a negative relationship with children’s performance. Its incidence is much greater, however, when accompanied by low abilities of self-regulation, given the important direct effect that effortful control has on both academic achievement and school social adjustment, even when this is evaluated by different informants. We must highlight the increasing evidence of the relationships that exist between the different components of self-regulation (attentional control, inhibitory control, activation control) and negative emotionality (fear, anger) when explaining behavioural problems in the classroom.

Barranca Barranca is a small coastal port in the Central Coastal region of Peru, 190 km north of Lima. It has a population of about 140,000 people with an economy based largely on agriculture and fishing. It is a good headquarters for investigating local archaeological sites, particularly Caral, as well as environmental treasures such as the Albufera del Medio Mundo, a great sandy beach, a large local market, and excellent provincial cuisine. Get in[edit] There are combis along the coast to neighbouring towns, & frequent buses along the Panamerican Highway from Lima to Chimbote, Huaraz, Trujillo, Chiclayo, Cajamarca, Chachapoyas, Piura, Mancora & Tumbes. combis to neighbouring towns & fewer taxis may be persuaded to offer a 1/2 day visit to Caral. Moto taxis. 1 sol anywhere in Barranca. It is a motorcycle attached to a metal framed carriage that holds 2-4 people. It is the most convenient and affordable to get from one side of town to the other, although, Barranca is small enough to be traveled on foot. Be aware that this fare is fixed regardless of whether you are going two blocks or from the town center to the beach. This mode of transportation does not allow you to make multiple stops. Mototaxies are prohibited from traveling on the Panamerican, though they sometimes do so anyway. Do so only if you are truly a thrill-seeker. Taxis. While mototaxis are cheap, they are not the safest mode of transportation nor the most comfortable for taller people. There are local regular taxis as well that will cost one or two soles more, but are safer and a bit roomier. They will also take you anywhere and are permitted on the Panamerican. Caral,

We Need Education Standards, Not Standardized Learning Posted by Sarah Henchey In our Transforming Schools Together series, teachers affiliated with the Center for Teaching Quality invite us to re-imagine the very concept of school, and suggest small actions we can take to improve existing schools. Standards are a constant in our lives. There are emission standards for our cars, nutrition standards for our food, and breed standards (adopt a mutt!) for our dogs. For the most part, we accept these guidelines to ensure safety and quality. Yet, when it comes to education, we view standards with skepticism. We question whether they encourage teaching to the test. We worry about the crowding out of the arts. And we theorize about who is behind the standards and what their hidden agenda may (or may not) be. We are right to be thoughtful about all these things. But we can't look past the benefits that academic standards can have, when done right: They create a vision. They establish a destination for learning; teachers and kids chart the course for how to get there. They promote equity. The elements of a high-quality education are good enough for all, not just a fortunate few. Standards establish expectations that encourage schools, districts, and states to provide a high-quality education to every student. They reinforce a common language. Like most professions, education is full of acronyms. Standards help teachers can speak the same language. You may have heard about the Common Core State Standards (AKA the "Common Core"). They're intended to provide "a consistent, clear understanding of what students are expected to learn, so teachers and parents know what they need to do to help them." The standards aren't federal—states can choose whether to adopt them. So far, 45 states and the District of Columbia have. And districts, schools, and teachers retain control of the curriculum and how to teach kids to master the standards. They're also focused on the kinds of 21st century skills and knowledge that kids need to master in order to be successful. Remember those quizzes on state capitals and counties? With the Common Core, gone are the days of regurgitation. With information at our fing

Team Global Studies Major Information (PDF) Taking the ReinsAlexis "Lexi" Mandarakas '11 didn't expect to find herself presenting original research at national psychology conference, but... Meet the Faculty Jennifer Dugan Chair of the Global Studies Department, Professor of Political Science B.A., California State University; Ph.D., University of California (e-mail) (web site) Global Studies is about studying the world from the perspective of outer space looking down: from there, we see the simultaneous and overlapping forces that drive world affairs. GS students are trained to identify both the root causes of the challenges we face and to generate solutions that address them for the longer-term. In addition to taking core courses in political science, economics, and foreign languages, the student chooses a special focus area within the major. Students have focused on areas such as peace and conflict resolution international law and diplomacy We work closely with you to shape your program of study around your interests and future goals. In our classes, we emphasize collaborative learning, problem-solving, debate, critical thinking, and diplomatic skills: writing, speaking, and listening.

As a result of their combined experiences, our graduates are prepared for work in a variety of fields, such as teaching, policymaking, and development, and for graduate and law school programs. My own work is in the area of international humanitarian law. I am especially interested in how the rules of war influence countries decisions to go to war. Are the current rules adequate to both address new global threats and preserve international peace and stability? Much of my focus is on the United Nations Security Council and the changing norms regarding use of force standards. Teaching international law and the United Nations system is one of the most exciting aspects of my job. I am happy that you are interested in Global Studies and am available to speak with you. Meanwhile, please look at our website, be in touch with current GS students, and check out our NMUN blog during the spring semester! Mari Ishibashi Associate Professor of Political Science B.A., Sophia University, (Japan); M.A., Ph.D., University of Notre Dame (e-mail) Originally from Japan, I first came to the United States as an exchange student and became a strong advocate of exchange programs. After completing my B.A. at Sophia University (Jouchi Daigaku) in Tokyo, I jumped into the field of policy research, working with the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) members of the Japanese parliament. My desire to learn about domestic and global politics from a very different spectrum brought me to the Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies and later I earned my Ph.D. in political science at the University of Notre Dame. What I hope for my students is to discover a life-long joy of developing a greater appreciation of and celebration for the differences and commonality of humankind. I would like them to understand the world by making connections among different pieces of knowledge they acquire in various disciplines. I would like my students to open their minds and hearts to different predicaments of other peoples and critically reflect on important issues which affect not only them but also others in the world. My research interest has been on minority politics, especially the Korean minority in Japan. Most recently, I have been examining different factors behind decisions made by the local governments in Japan to allow foreign residents participation in referendums. My courses include Introduction to East Asian Politics, Gender Politics in Asia, Ethnic and Political Conflict in Asia, Introduction to World Politics, Peace and Conflict Resolution and Political Research. When I am not on campus, I spend a lot of time with my husband, Carl and our son, Elliott.

Kodak to file reorganization plan in April Eastman Kodak Co.’s path to emergence from bankruptcy became clearer Friday. The company announced an agreement with the Steering Committee of the Second Lien Noteholders to amend the terms of its interim and exit financing package. The amendments provide Kodak with additional flexibility to execute its reorganization objectives and emerge from Chapter 11 in mid-2013, the company said. Kodak plans to file its reorganization plan in April. “We are establishing a clear path for our emergence as a stronger, focused commercial imaging company,” Chairman and CEO Antonio Perez said. “As we move toward finalizing our plan of reorganization, we are pleased to have reached an agreement with our lenders that gives Kodak additional financial flexibility in how we reach our ultimate goal of a successful emergence with a sustainable business model.” As part of the agreement, Kodak committed to achieving at least $600 million in cash proceeds through the disposition of any combination of specified non-commercial imaging assets, including its Document Imaging and Personalized Imaging businesses, and trademarks and related rights. In addition, Kodak, along with the Steering Committee of the Second Lien Noteholders and the Unsecured Creditors Committee, jointly will hire a search firm to begin identifying potential new directors for the board of directors which will lead the reorganized Kodak following emergence, the company said. The existing board expects to appoint an additional independent director following closing of the financing. This director would be available to continue to serve on the board following Kodak’s emergence from bankruptcy. Kodak anticipates closing the financing in mid- to late March, subject to the prior approval of the Bankruptcy Court. On Thursday, Kodak reported a net loss of $58.1 million in January on sales of $127.9 million for its companies in bankruptcy. Its loss from continuing operations totaled $57.2 million. The net loss for January is down from $100.3 million in January 2012 on sales of $143.9 million. Kodak had reported a net loss in December of $272.4 million on sales of $152.1 million. Its loss from continuing operations totaled $272 million. The company listed cash and cash equivalents of $279.6 million on Jan. 31, down from $337.2 million on Dec. 31 and compared with $682.8 million on Feb. 29, 2012. The financials are contained in monthly operating reports filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court to show asset use and cash for the U.S. units of Kodak that are in Chapter 11. The company filed for bankruptcy Jan. 19, 2012. It aims to emerge from bankruptcy in the first half of 2013. The reports include costs that Kodak is responsible for companywide, but do not reflect its international businesses that were not part of the bankruptcy filing. Kodak cautions that the monthly reports are prepared solely to comply with the bankruptcy court’s reporting requirements. They are unaudited and were not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

E-readers now available at Booky Joint December 21, 2012 By Times Staff Report news@mammothtimes.com Mammoth’s only locally-owned bookstore, the Booky Joint, now carries an electronic reader designed for independent bookstores, according to owner Dave Leonard. Called the Kobo, the readers range in price from $80 to $121, with a $49.99 sale on the Kobo Mini scheduled for this weekend, Dec. 21-23. “It’s the smallest e-reader in the world,” said Lane Jacobson, an employee of Booky Joint. “It’s a great way to support the Booky Joint, as a stipend from all the e-books that you purchase for the Kobe goes to the Booky Joint.” The Booky Joint is located at the Mammoth Minaret Mall near Vons.

Business's real problem: Uncertainty, uncertainty, uncertainty August 8, 2012: 5:00 AM ET It's hard for corporate chiefs to plan for the future when they're waiting for a closetful of shoes to drop. By Geoff Colvin, senior editor-at-large FORTUNE -- When CEOs tell me that their No. 1 concern is uncertainty, as a great many do, my first reaction is skepticism. Please. Life is uncertain. Is this moment really different? Actually it is: Economic uncertainty, especially policy uncertainty, is greater than it has been in many years. And if you're wondering why the U.S. economy is barely moving or why millions of workers can't find jobs, extraordinary uncertainty is a major part -- maybe the largest part -- of the answer. High uncertainty creates a loop of paralysis, and that's what we're in right now. Policymakers have no idea what's going to happen, so they sit on their hands, as the Federal Reserve did recently. "Nearly all participants" in the latest Federal Open Market Committee meeting said that the economic outlook was more uncertain than it had been over the past 20 years, according to the minutes; the committee took no action, and the Dow dropped. The minutes also reported that business leaders were telling committee members that "heightened uncertainty" had led them "to put potential investment projects on hold until the uncertainty is resolved." And what were those business leaders uncertain about? Government policy. An index of policy uncertainty created by economists at Stanford and the University of Chicago backs their view, showing that policy uncertainty has been much higher in recent months than during the previous 25 years. More: Why this month's good jobs news won't last The business leaders were most uncertain about tax and regulatory issues. Those things are always changeable, but the potential swings could make you dizzy. After the Supreme Court upheld Obamacare in June, Mitt Romney and Republican congressional leaders promised to repeal it if they win the election in November. So the biggest-ever regulation of the largest sector of the world's largest economy, affecting every employer and individual in the country, either will continue as the law of the land or will disappear. Who can even think about planning in those circumstances? It's similar with the fiscal cliff at year-end: the killer combination of mandatory cuts in federal spending and the expiration of the Bush tax cuts. Even assuming that Congress averts a plunge over the edge, no one knows how it will happen. A short-term fix, by far the likeliest outcome, will do nothing to get the economy moving because it leaves businesspeople wondering what comes next. Investment and hiring decisions are not short-term. Research by Abdiweli M. Ali of Harvard concluded, "Lack of confidence and skepticism about the stability of economic policies force investors to postpone capital investment ... They cannot undo decisions about fixed capital every time the government reverses its economic policy." This isn't just economic theory. Uncertainty is creating real suffering. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimates that uncertainty about the fiscal cliff alone could reduce U.S. economic growth by 0.5% in the second half. In an economy growing at less than 2%, that's a lot, representing billions of dollars that won't be available to hire people. More: The dollar is now corporate America's worst enemy Who's to blame? A hyperpolarized Congress is an uncertainty-generating machine. Obamacare was enacted without a single Republican vote in either chamber; when the House voted recently to repeal the law, only five Democrats voted with 239 Republicans. The message to businesspeople: Don't count on anything that passes without substantial bipartisan support. And little of significance seems to be enacted that way anymore. Another thing CEOs often tell me is that the precise content of policy may be less important than its predictability. If they know the rules, they'll play to win. It's when they don't know the rules, like now, that they get stuck. Give the election's winners, whoever they are, until March to show that they're leaders rather than kids throwing tantrums. Until then -- and who knows, maybe beyond -- we're going nowhere fast. This story is from the August 13, 2012 issue of Fortune.

Harris Allied comments More employers give green light to flexible hours By Anne Fisher, contributor May 3, 2012: 9:52 AM ET One way this economic slowdown has differed from past recessions: Efforts to help people balance work and family actually increased, says one study. FORTUNE -- Business is booming at Harris Allied, a New York City-based recruiting firm that specializes in finding IT talent and quantitative analysts for investment banks and other financial services companies. "Candidates come to us because they want to change jobs, and a lack of balance between work and home life is usually the reason," says managing director Kathy Harris. "People get tired of working 16-hour days. I had one executive tell me he hadn't had dinner with his family in six months." Now that the job market is showing signs of life again, she adds, "More people are making a move. And, when a key person quits in order to get more balance in their lives, it often comes as a complete surprise to their employer." But, perhaps taking a lesson from past recessions -- when throwing work-life balance concerns under the bus led to a stampede for the exits when times improved -- it seems some companies took a different approach this time. MORE: What does fulfillment at work really look like? According to the 2012 National Study of Employers, a massive survey of companies across a range of industries conducted by the Society for Human Resource Management and the nonprofit Families and Work Institute, more employers now try to accommodate their staffers' work-life needs than in pre-recession 2005. Consider: 77% of the companies polled now permit or encourage flextime, up from 66% in 2005. About two-thirds (66%) let people work from home sometimes, a big jump from 34% seven years ago. Turning down overtime is more widely acceptable, too. Only 28% of companies in 2005 gave workers any say in whether or when they put in extra hours. Now, 44% do. The trend toward greater workplace flexibility seems likely to continue, says Henry Jackson, SHRM's president and CEO, because "it's clear that, to remain competitive, employers have to find ways to offer flexible work options if they want to attract and retain top talent." Another new survey, this one by HR consultants Workplace Options, found that a whopping 79% of Millennials (ages 18 to 29) said they'd prefer to work for employers who allow flexible schedules, especially during the summer. MORE: Can you get hired on the second (or third) try? "There are always going to be crunch deadlines, but as a long-term thing, people are just saying 'no' to putting in endless hours at work. They're telling us, 'Life's too short to miss my kids' childhood entirely,'" says Kathy Harris. Echoing Jackson at SHRM, she adds, "Now that there are more job opportunities out there, employers who haven't come to terms with their key employees' work-life balance issues are going to have to start."

Living Small Who says well-behaved women can't make history? « Chain Shopping | | Baldness » The Passive Voice Revisited Amazingly enough, only one of my students challenged his grade on the first paper. Although I had clearly indicated on the syllabus that students must make grade appeals in writing (explicitly stated to mean a hard copy turned in to my mail box along with the paper to be reconsidered), this student emailed me to ask if there was any way I could raise his grade. I replied that, because he had only answered the first part of the essay question, I couldn't give him anything higher than a B but that, if he had a good reason why he should have gotten a B rather than a B-, he should write a paragraph and turn it in to my mailbox along with the paper in question. After responding with the idiotic question of whether he could do this by email (the obvious answer: no, because I need to see the paper again), he did as I asked. His grade appeal began with the statement, "I believe that while the second half of the question was not fully answered, my paper deserves a B." Upon reading this, I burst out laughing. He had turned in this paper right after my lesson about how the passive voice hides responsibility and agency. By using the passive voice in his grade appeal, this student made it sound as though the fact that "the second half of the question was not fully answered" had nothing to do with him. This construction reflects his unwillingness to take responsibility for his poor grade. To say "I didn't fully answer the second half of the question" would be unthinkable because it would mean admitting fault. This kid will probably be a ridiculously high-paid defense attorney someday. Posted by eklanche at November 28, 2006 08:31 AM See, a brilliant employment of the passive voice. I told you it was useful. Posted by: dmerch at November 28, 2006 12:38 PM Login to leave a comment.

After first loss, Falcons aren’t standing pat November 15, 2012 12:43 AM | 1125 views | 0 | 5 | | Ray Edwards FLOWERY BRANCH — They sound like idle words, even for a team with the NFL’s best record.Everyone is being evaluated on a weekly basis. No one’s job is safe. If someone isn’t performing up to expectations, they can be replaced. Well, the Atlanta Falcons weren’t kidding.Coming off their first loss but still cruising at 8-1, the Falcons made a bold move this week when they dumped big-money defensive end Ray Edwards. In less than two seasons with the team, he had done little to justify a contract that included $11 million in guaranteed money, so the Falcons decided to go in a different direction.The message to everyone else is clear — don’t get complacent.“It’s a wakeup call,” safety Thomas DeCoud said Wednesday. “The message has been received.”While it might have been convenient to let Edwards languish on the bench, especially with the team playing so well, coach Mike Smith and general manager Thomas Dimitroff decided it’s never good to keep an underperforming player on the roster. Edwards had only nine tackles and no sacks this season, his starting job claimed by Kroy Biermann. “I don’t want to get into sending messages and what not,” Smith said. “We evaluate every day. We evaluate after every game, from top to bottom. We talk about it all the time. It starts with me. This is a decision that we made. We feel like it makes our team better today and makes our team better in the future.”With Edwards gone, the Falcons will give more playing time to fourth-year player Lawrence Sidbury, second-year lineman Cliff Matthews and rookie Jonathan Massaquoi, who got his first playing time in last week’s 31-27 loss to the New Orleans Saints.In the meantime, all the younger players have seen the cruel side of the business.“It’s scary,” rookie offensive lineman Peter Konz said, managing a weak smile. “It makes you think. But if you do the right things, get the job done on the field, you don’t have to be too worried about it.”Edwards had not done much right since signing a five-year, $30 million contract with the Falcons just before the start of training camp last season.After combining for 16.5 sacks in his final two seasons with Minnesota, he was supposed to team with John Abraham to give opponents a two-sided nightmare coming off the edge. Instead, after undergoing knee surgery during the lockout, Edwards struggled to regain his mobility and managed just 3.5 sacks in what turned out to be his only full season with the Falcons.This season, things only got worse.Biermann, the player Edwards was supposed to replace, was much more effective as a rusher and at playing the versatile role required by new defensive coordinator Mike Nolan (sometimes even dropping into pass coverage). Edwards started four games, but found himself spending more and more time on the sideline.Finally, the Falcons had seen enough.Even with a $4.5 million hit on the salary cap next season, Smith and Dimitroff made the move.“We’re about winning games here,” defensive lineman Corey Peters said. “It’s in the best interest to do everything we can to help our team get to that goal. We’re not hesitant to make decisions and make changes.”If nothing else, Smith has always tried to be up front with his players. If someone’s not playing up to their ability, he’ll tell them. If change is needed, he’ll pull the trigger and move on.“This is not anything new,” Peters said. “I’m grateful to be in a place where they’re pretty transparent. The let you know what they think of you. That’s all you can really ask for.”While some players surely have more leeway than others — Matt Ryan is not going to be replaced at quarterback, no matter how poorly he plays Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals (4-5) — coaches have always relied on a bit of the fear factor to keep everyone motivated. Given that most players don’t have a lot of guaranteed money in their contracts, the desire to succeed takes on new importance. There’s always someone looking for a job. There’s always someone eager to take your place. “That’s the way this game goes,” cornerback Dunta Robinson said. “You can be replaced.”In a sign of how quickly things change, Massaquoi had already taken over Edwards’ locker space on Wednesday, claiming a more prominent spot among the other defensive linemen. “Ray was a great friend of mine,” Robinson said, looking over at Edwards’ former locker. “I hate to see him go. But it’s a business. Things like this are going to happen when it’s a business.”Linebacker Mike Peterson said he wasn’t surprised at all by the move.“This organization definitely believes in trying to get better at each position each and every week,” he said. “Even when we’re winning. Even when we were 5-0, 6-0, 7-0, we were trying to get better each week.”Safety William Moore heard Peterson’s comments as he walked by.“You better believe that,” Moore said.No one doubts it now.

Some of us are lucky enough to have lived in democratic societies where leaders are elected to serve the people; where people have all the fundamental rights to shove them out of office when they failed to live up to their promise. Just through ballots not bullets. This is universally defined as democracy-government of the people, for the people and by the people. On the contrary, it is heart-breaking to learn the existence of tyrannical government who treat their people like slaves. Eritrea is the home of one of the worst dictators Africa has ever produced. It has been branded as North Korea of Africa. A totalitarian regime typically led not by institution but by one man and a group of very small percentage of the total population who benefit from promoting, protecting and maintaining the status-quo. It is a government of the cronies, for the cronies and by the cronies. The self-proclaimed president of the country, Isaias Afwerki has been in power for 20 years, aided and abetted by his immediate entourages, who expects to drive considerable socio-economic benefits for themselves from the most despicable man-made humanitarian crises in the country. It is historically documented fact that the people had collectively paid an ultimate price for independence, freedom, peace, liberty, justice and the rule of law, where all ethnic groups can live in a state of harmony. The thirty years of armed struggle was not only to free the land and the people from foreign colonizers, but also to achieve political, social, economic, cultural and physical security. But it didn’t take much time for the Eritrean people to learn that liberating the country was not the end of the road. The freedom fighters that the people had enthusiastically received as liberators turned into monsters. The people were initially blinded by the joy of independence and unable to see the dictator in the making. According to many freedom fighters however, Isaias Afwerki once a revolutionary now a totalitarian leader has had the hearts and soul of a cold-blooded dictator all along. But, he managed to conceal his true colors until he secured his base by abolishing the power of the civilian administration and legal system and replacing it with everything military, monopolizing the entire economy, mass communication and restriction of freedom of speech, movement, worship etc. Eventually, the armed forces became a law unto themselves. The military regime has ultimately subjected the people to repression, imprisonment without due process, denial of all fundamental human rights and reduced the people to extreme poverty and exile. This is the current Eritrean tragedy. Isaiais Afworki, along with his cliques has slowly proceeded to transform the country into a paranoiac and personal military dictatorship committed to isolationist foreign policy and outrageously repressive domestic one. Its policies are more of reactionary propensities which lack both total ideology and party to support and embody it. That being said, the regime operates under a party name PFDJ (People’s Front for Democracy and Justice), although it doesn’t have a party function. In addition to the fact that the “party” members have never had a meeting for the last 17 years, they were actually not recruited freely. The members are often chosen by their personality, attitude and dedication to keep the status quo. It is more of a membership to specific club where the aggressors and intransigents make top candidates. The PFDJ has neither popularity nor a deep root within Eritrean society. Thus, Isaias is obviously bigger than the party itself. And therefore, there is a higher probability that his death would mark the death of the party. As PFDJ popularity at home decays in an exponential manner, Isaias has recently established a Hitler Youth “Hitler Jugend” like movement in diaspora under the name of Young People’s Front for Democracy and Justice (YPFDJ) who apparently are anti-constitution and antidemocratic entity. REFUGEE EXODUS TO ESCAPE MAN-MADE FAMINE AND TYRANNY Eritre1.jpg (40.99 KiB) Viewed 244 times Eritrean Youth crossing the Saharan Desert Recently, the natural famine in the Horn of Africa has received enough attention by the world media. As a result, humanitarian organizations, governmental and non-governmental agencies have been generously investing their time and resource to save the sub-region. But, the Eritrean people have painfully been watching aid distribution in the neighbouring countries from distance; because they have been denied to foreign aid by their government. Ironically, neither aid organizations nor international media is allowed in the country to assist, monitor, evaluate or report the crisis. Regardless of how hard the dictator tries to hide the extreme starvation in the country[1], the people are evidently the hardest-hit by the drought than any country in the sub-region. This is because they are facing a triple jeopardy: dealing with a deliberately imposed famine, the natural famine and deprivation from receiving food aid from the international community. Therefore, famine has been used as a weapon to control the population way before natural catastrophe had visited the land. Prior to the exposure of widespread natural famine and human suffering throughout the sub-region, Eritrea has been gripped by a devastating man-made famine for all most a decade. Here is how and why the people have been reduced to extreme starvation, poverty, illiteracy, exile, degradation, exploitation and gross human rights violations: Although the people fought for equality, socio-economic justice and the rule of law, they are now being compelled to live under the most brutal dictator in the world. They have become victims of oppression, economic and physical exploitations, corruption, nepotism, and horror. Thus, all men and women below the age of 50, including young boys and girls are conscripted against their will, destroying their traditional and educational futures. Consequently, the most productive sectors of the population are conscripted into perpetual military service where they are forced to provide free labour for the private companies owned by the military junta. The cult owns farms, construction companies and businesses for which they use ‘national service’ personal as slave labour. The inconvenient truth is that, fathers and husbands are denied their rights to take care of their spouse and children; sons and daughters are deprived of their rights to look after their aged parents; and the youth have ultimately been stripped off their future just to serve stratocracy. This is a regime where a small group of people has an absolute control over virtually all aspects of the social, economic, religious, cultural, and political life of the people. They run the state like a personal enterprise. The very people are now claiming that there is no famine in Eritrea. In a firmly knitted totalitarian set-up, Isaias Afwerki has secured an absolute power over the country, bounded neither by the moral nor by the legal laws of the society. In an attempt to micromanage the local political process and expand its socio-economic control over the people, the regime has replaced the traditional leadership ‘Bayto Adi’ and customary laws ‘bahlawi Higtat’ by centralized government authorities; expanded its military presence and involvement in every area of the country and all aspects of life. He seeks to get hold of the entire population in every area in away never seen before in the continent. The country is now, replete with lawlessness, rape, corruption, favouritism and abuse by this kleptocratic(Mihdera bigujile serekti) group, where the culture of impunity (freedom from retribution for major crimes) is often cited as the growing public problem. Consequently, they have been using the total immunity they enjoyed and the enormity of power conferred upon them to enslave, arrest, torture, rape, and kill. When the political power fall into the hands of military commanders, lawlessness, corruption, economic extraction and human exploitation and abuse become the daily occurrences of the people and women become the principal targets of their insensible crime. [deleted] violence is therefore one of the products of the oppression and lawlessness, where the commanders have absolute power over the powerless. Fear and terror have been the regime’s typical tools to seize and retain control over the physical, social, economic, cultural, religious and political livelihoods of the people and systematizing the violation of human rights by employing arbitrary detention, torture, murder, and disappearance, against those it deemed enemies. The regime has destroyed the religious and social institutions for fear of public solidarity, social networks and oppositions. Therefore, Eritrea is a typical example of deteriorating traditional institutions: social-economic order, community bond, customs, values and family institutions which disrupts the socio-economic functions and coping mechanisms of the society. The regime’s absolute control over the traditional, social, economic and political order has broken-down the fundamental social pillars and safety net such as, social norms, laws, values, marriage institutions, and family unit that have kept the social fabrics and pride as well as enabled to preserve itself in times of hardship for generations. In Eritrean tradition, the family unit and the social bonds are strong sources of security and coping mechanisms during economic and social hardships, as members would depend on one another. So, the destruction of the social bond and family unit would ultimately threaten their existence as people. As Amartya Sen, the Economist has diligently explained: the stipulation of economic and [social] freedom [are] one of the most important social justices that allow individuals to enjoy the kind of life he or she ‘reasons to value’. The economic deprivation on the other hand is individuals’ capability deprivation which undermines a communities’ or individuals’ survival possibilities leading to loss of work motivation, skills, psychological harm, self-confidence, increase in ailments and morbidity (and even mortality rates), disruption of social and family relations, social exclusion, political tension and exposes for an impoverished life.[2] Thus, the economic deprivation and social disruption of the Eritrean case has been clear that the most economically active, socially responsible and productive sector of society has been held in the army indefinitely, from which, 54% of the 350,000 soldiers are between the ages of 20 and 29 and 78% are heads of households.[3] Sen has explained this kind of scenario by saying “economic oppression is the violation of fundamental human rights which robs people of the freedom to establish family, to cultivate, to satisfy hunger, to achieve sufficient nutrition, the opportunity to adequately sheltered and flourish.”[4] Eritrea is a country where more than 80% of the population depends on subsistence farming. And there is mainly one farming season which would have a grave consequence on their livelihood if peasants miss the farming season for there is absolutely no others source of income for an entire year. Sadly, however, farmers are forcefully conscripted into the military services that agricultural lands remain unfarmed and the regime cares less to provide socio-economic or psychological support for those families whose survival is mainly dependent on the breadwinner. There is nothing more painful and disempowering feeling than watching your family die from starvation and related disease and there is nothing you can do about it. Breadwinners are taken away, leaving their families unassisted and disintegrated. It is extremely hard to imagine, let alone to condone the generalized human rights violation in the country. Under normal circumstance, a breadwinner would work hard to meet his/her moral, legal and social obligation of supporting their family. As peculiar as it may sound, in present Eritrea, it is considered to be illegal to earn a living while in the “national service.” Like all other professionals, school teachers are also being forced to teach unpaid. Consequently, teachers usually do private teaching jobs secretly to students who can afford to pay for their service, which disproportionately affects the majority student population from gaining access to their fundamental educational rights. Not to mention the closure of the only university in the country-Asmara University. Now that there is a drought in the sub-region, it is extremely hard to quantify the level of starvation and misery in the country. Deprived their fundamental human rights and tormented by the degrading and dehumanizing treatment of the government’s agents, frustrated both by the absence of state protection and political intervention against the unwilling or unable government; men, women and children are forced to flee across borders to look for international protection and justice outside their country. Hence, extensive numbers of Eritreans are abandoning their homes, friend and livelihoods to seek freedom, liberty, security and international protection. The massive refugee flow is a self-explanatory proof of the climate of horror in the country. The Eritrean regime may be able to abuse its people arbitrarily, deny all the fundamental human rights, silence dissidents, restrict access to information, imprison potential opponents and sympathizers and it may also deny that any violation is occurring, but they can rarely stop desperate people escaping. Desperate Eritreans are crossing the international borders in their thousands, regardless of the shoot-to-kill policy, landmines and dreadful smugglers[5]. Now, there are more Eritrean refugees in the Sudanese and Ethiopian camps than any other time in Eritrean history. Others are taking the maximum risks in life to cross the Saharan Desert, Sinai Desert and Mediterranean Sea to cross to Israel and Europe. According to several international sources, Eritrea, the country of 5 million people is one of the largest refugee producing countries in the world.[6] This is a living proof for anyone who wants to see and feel the pain and suffering of the Eritrean people under a tyrannical regime.Bahlbi Yemane is a PhD candidate in PRDU, at the University of York, UK.

A Microbial Biorealm page on the genus Probiotics and Prebiotics 1 Probiotics 2 Scientific Studies on Probiotics 3 Prebiotics 4 Scientific Studies on Prebiotics Probiotics which are also known as friendly bacteria or good bacteria can be defined as living microorganisms that are beneficial to the health of their host. In fact, the etymology of probiotics is literally, “pro health”. The idea that probiotics could be used to restore a healthy gut microbiome originated in the early 1900s. First in 1906, the French pediatrician Henry Tissier realized that if specific bacteria were administered to patients with diarrhea, they could help create a healthy gut flora. Gut flora are the microscopic organisms living in the intestinal systems [1]. Then again in 1907 the Russian scientist Eli Metchnikoff suggested that, “the dependence of the intestinal microbes makes it possible to adapt measures to modify the flora in our bodies and to replace harmful microbes with useful microbes [1].” Based on these original ideas it is now widely accepted that probiotics can be useful for many areas of health. Probiotics can support healthy immune, digestive, and respiratory systems. They can also help high risk groups such as children avoid infectious disease [1]. However, there is more decisive research confirming the idea that probiotics are more successful in the prevention of health issues, than in treating them once they start. Probiotics are found naturally in foods such as yogurt, sauerkraut, miso, kim chi (fermented cabbage), and cultured milk. However, they are also available in nutritional supplements and commercial products. In order for probiotics to work, or restore a healthy gut microbiome several things must be true. The probiotics microorganisms have to be able to survive the passage through the digestive tract, they also must people able to inhabit the gut or grow in the presence of bile [2]. Two commonly used types of probiotics are lactobacillus and bifodobacterium. Probiotics work in several different ways. They prevent damage bacteria spreading in the body, can produce vitamins and enzymes, and change the acidic environment [3]. Overall, the goal of probiotics is to restore the microbiome to its natural and healthy state, which could have been altered by dietary or environmental influences such as the use of excessive antibiotics [3]. It is important to note that findings on the success of probiotics are still in the process and many other factors could be at play such as how long will the new bacteria survive, and if the effects are possibly from the healthy food itself. Scientific Studies on Probiotics In studies it has been well established that probiotic bacteria adhere to the wall of the gut, but there is not sufficient evidence to suggest that these microbes permanently colonize. Thus, continuous replenishing of the probiotic may be required in order for the human to receive the bacterial benefits. A report that examined the ingestion of Bifidobacterium found that as long as the probiotic was taken daily there was bacterial presence in the colon, but only eight days after daily consumption ended there were no traces of lingering microbes [6]. However, studies have shown that strains such as lactobacilli were detectable up to a year after consumption, suggesting that long-term colonization may be possible [5]. Even though scientists have been researching probiotics and their possible benefits to human health for more than a hundred years, the results of studies on their effects have not been completely conclusive. Some theorized perks of probiotic use are possible prevention of tumors, production of by-products that inhibit colonization by unwanted bacteria, boost in immune system response, and improved absorption of vitamins and minerals. One reason the data has been inconclusive is that many studies have focused on probiotic benefits in animals, but it has not been shown that these effects necessarily apply to humans as well [6]. Probiotics have been shown to be effective in numerous health conditions. For instance, in people with lactose intolerance, probiotics have been shown to produce products that improve tolerance. Probiotics given simultaneously with antibiotic treatments for intestinal infections have been confirmed to reduce the frequency of symptoms such as diarrhea. Additionally, recurrences of infections due to the pathogen Clostridium difficile (commonly referred to as C.diff) have been reduced by supplements of probiotics [5]. A study performed by a microbiologist at Washington University in Saint Louis tested the effectiveness of probiotic foods on sets of twins, giving one twin probiotic yogurt twice a day while the other ate a normal diet. The result was that neither the bacteria colonized nor did the pre-existing bacterial community change; the reason for this was thought to be the relatively insignificant number of consumed microbes compared to the human microbial population. But when the bacterial strains from the yogurt were fed to mice, although there was again no community change, the mice did show increased ability to break down carbohydrates. However, as stated earlier, it is difficult to relate the results between mice and humans [9]. Prebiotics were first identified in the mid 1990’s. Scientists narrowed the meaning of the term to “a nondigestible food ingredient that beneficially affects the host by selectively stimulating the growth and/or activity of one or a limited number of bacteria in the colon, and thus improves host health.” [16] However, this wasn’t a narrow enough definition. In order to truly nourish the beneficial microbes in our colon, the prebiotic needed to have three major characteristics. First, it needed to withstand the chemical conditions in gut, namely its high acidity. Second, the bacteria in our colon needed to be able to ferment it. Third, it needed to markedly benefit a selective set of bacteria; namely those which were most beneficial to human health. [16] The scientist who first classified prebiotics has stated that only two substances properly conform to this definition: namely inulin and oligofructose. Galacto-oligosaccharides, fructooligosaccharides are also widely accepted as prebiotics. [10] These two substances occur in high concentrations in many plants. Commonly consumed foods and their inulin and oligofructose content is shown in the chart. [17] According to a study conducted in 1999, the average American diet provided an average of 2.6 grams of inulin, and 2.5 grams of oligofructose a day. The main source of prebiotics was in wheat, which provided about 70% of average inulin intake, with onions accounting for an additional 25% of prebiotic intake.[17] There is no consensus about how much a prebiotic material a healthy adult should eat each day, and in fact standardized ‘dosages’ are often frowned upon because of each person’s unique digestive tract, which can encourage or stunt the use of prebiotics. [16] Theoretically speaking, a healthy community of symbiotic microbes in a host’s gut could confer a number of benefits. In general, prebiotics have been shown to effectively nourish bifidobacteria and lactobacilli across a number of species. [11][12] These in turn have the potential to aid in a variety of healthy processes, such as absorbing minerals[18], supporting immune function[19], alleviating symptoms of bowel diseases [19] and a reduced risk of colon cancer [20]. Scientific Studies on Prebiotics The question remains, do prebiotics really work? There have been innumerable studies done over the past decade on the effectiveness of prebiotics, conducted on both humans and animals. Especially regarding the four most well-established prebiotic substances—inulin, lactulose, and galacto-oligosaccharides, fructooligosaccharides—multiple studies have been done to measure and legitimize the effective of prebiotic substances [10]. Studies of prebiotics use several different criteria to evaluate their effectiveness. Many studies have focused on measuring the success of prebiotics in nurturing “good” gut microbial communities. The results from these have been largely positive. For instance, prebiotic breast milk formula fed to cows showed a significant increase in bifidobacteria and lactobacilli, two bacteria correlated with low infection rate [11]. Another similar study conducted with rats corroborated these results; the rats were fed a diet of fructo-oligosaccharides and then researchers tested the content of the rat feces. The results exhibited a significant reduction in coliforms, clostridia, and Bacteriodes—bacterial groups that include species that are considered to be “non-desirable” members of the gut community—and an increase the presence of anti-carcinogenic bifidobacteria [12]. Another series of studies has looked at the effectiveness of prebiotics in addressing disorders and illnesses in human patients; these have shown mixed and often contested results. Studies have shown that prebiotic use reduced the number and size of precancerous colon lesions [12]. Another set of recent experiments report that prebiotics aid in mineral absorption, especially calcium—this has been tested both in relationship to adolescent girls and post-menopausal women. Research in underway on testing a possible benefit of prebiotics in patients with diabetes, but these have shown little conclusive linkage [11]. Lastly, prebiotics have been tested in their effectiveness in maintaining remission and accelerating healing in Irritable Bowel Disorder patients [13]. Despite several similar studies lauding the ability of prebiotics in care for such disorders, a study conducted in 2010 with 103 members showed there was no significant change in patients with active Crohn’s disease over an eight week period [14]. Although the jury is still out on the beneficial effects of prebiotics, one conclusion is certain: prebiotics aren’t bad for you. Although studies conducted on prebiotics have not always been able to give conclusively positive results, studies show that the only adverse effect of prebiotic consumption is a laxative effect [12]. 1.

Parrish takes over Mud Hens For the second season in a row, the West Michigan Whitecaps are left without a manager. Unlike last season, however, this change comes with a promotion. Larry Parrish (pictured), who led the ‘Caps to a 69-70 finish in the Midwest League, has been promoted to helm the Toledo Mud Hens in 2014. This isn’t his first experience with Detroit’s Triple-A affiliate, as he managed Toledo in 1994 and from 2003-2010. Under Parrish, the Mud Hens won back to back Governor’s Cup (International League) championships in 2005 and 2006. Parrish has won more games for Toledo than any other manager at 569. It looks like three times a charm for him, as he has some great support from the parent club Tigers, as well as the Hens. “As a manager, he’s a great teacher, and I know we’ll see improvement in player development,” said Toledo’s general manager and team president Joe Napoli in a press release. “For our fans, he’s always been a favorite, they will be glad to welcome him back.” “He’s going to be missed,” stated Whitecaps vice president Jim Jarecki to MLive.com. “Having LP on board, he was a great guy on and off the field. He was great to work with and the guys really liked and respected him. Even though the record didn’t reflect it, the players gravitated to him and he was a great leader.” This is a good move by the Tigers’ organization, and a deserved promotion for Parrish, as he’s already in the International League Hall of Fame. We already have a couple of dates circled on the calendar for season to watch the Mud Hens, so we’ll be seeing him again soon. Now…what about the Whitecaps? The Single-A affiliate is once again in need of a skipper, and it will be interesting to see who the Tigers will assign. I’ve written in the past how I think that Brandon Inge would be a good fit in West Michigan. The Tigers’ have basically stated that they’d like him back in the organization once his playing days are done, and Inge always said positive things about the ‘Caps. We’ll see if he retires at the end of the season, though, and if he shows interest in coaching. Jarecki aslo stated the Tigers should name the ‘Caps new manager sometime in early October, so the safer bet may be seeing the promotion of Connecticut Tigers manager Andrew Graham. He has been at the helm of the C-Tigers for the last three seasons, and before that coached the Gulf Coast League Tigers from 2009-2010. He also served as the Tigers minor league catching coordinator during the 2010 season. This season, Graham led Connecticut to a 33-42 finish, good for third place in the New York-Penn League‘s Stedler Division. He is also a Tigers product, getting drafted by Detroit in 2003, and was a catcher in the organization from 2003-2008. A native of Sydney, Australia, Graham also played in the World Baseball Classic in 2006 and 2009. I’ll be keeping a close eye on who gets the West Michigan job. The Whitecaps have missed the playoffs the last three season, so whoever is chosen I hope they can break that streak in 2014.

Modern Mrs. Darcyredefining the accomplished womanHome How She Does It Look & Feel Your Best Eleanor Roosevelt on Blogging July 25, 2011 by Anne 11 Comments Welcome to Modern Mrs Darcy! Check out the most popular posts while you're here. If you like what you see, subscribe here for free updates, or you can "like" the MMD facebook page here and receive new posts in your news stream. Thanks for visiting! Eleanor Roosevelt would have made an excellent blogger. Though she lived and died before the era of the world wide web, she was her day’s version of a blogger: her syndicated newspaper column “My Day” appeared in American newspapers nationwide, 6 days a week, for nearly 30 years. As a blogger (er, columnist) Mrs. Roosevelt had phenomenal stats: millions of raving fans and engaged subscribers. And the strategies she first employed to reach her audience 75 years ago have stood the test of time: 1. Write about something inherently interesting. Mrs. Roosevelt’s column was called “My Day” because in it she described what her days were like. And readers wanted to know–how does the first lady of the United States spend her time? What’s it like to be married to the leader of the free world? Now here was a niche that needed filling! 2. Choose an inexhaustible topic. Mrs. Roosevelt wrote about what she did each day. This topic allowed her to address an enormous range of issues: history, politics, news, travel, marriage, parenting, race relations, films, the Cold War, music, desegregation. She could talk about anything. (And she did.) 3. Write what you know. Nobody was more qualified to write about the life of first lady than Mrs. Roosevelt herself. She was an expert on the topic, and she wrote with authority. 4. Be consistent. Mrs. Roosevelt never took a day off. Her first “My Day” column appeared on December 30, 1935, and continued to run 6 days a week, year-round, until 1962. Her readers could count on her to be in their newspapers every morning. (She did make one exception, and took 4 days off after her husband’s death in 1945.) 5. Set a time limit. Mrs. Roosevelt’s column ran 500 words, but she usually managed to complete each column in an hour. She had many obligations to attend to as first lady, and she made getting her column done quickly a priority. But readers didn’t complain that the quality suffered for it. Mrs. Roosevelt saved time by dictating her columns to her assistant. (She once declared her secretary Malvina Thompson to be “the person who makes my life possible.”) Perhaps this is why her columns seem so friendly–it sounds as if she’s actually speaking to you, the reader. The writing isn’t college-level English; instead, it sounds like she’s jotting off a note to a friend. And her readers loved her for it. 6. Have a hard deadline. Mrs. Roosevelt had to file her column each day before the paper went to press. No exceptions. She didn’t have any wiggle room, so she had no choice but to get the job done promptly. And she did. Mrs. Roosevelt was loved by her readers because she connected with them on a personal level. She shared her life with them, and they loved her for it, especially because it was a very busy life, and they knew it wasn’t an easy thing for her to share it with them. But she was able to do it, because she was such a genius about this whole blogging thing (or columnist thing, whatever).

Commentary > Game Over Doom 3 is coming -- finally Widely awaited, oft-delayed game is finally done. Which companies stand to gain? July 14, 2004: 4:05 PM EDT NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Since 2000, developer id Software has told the world the next installment of "Doom," the game that kicked off the action genre, would ship "when it's done." Good news, gamers: It's done. In the lexicon of the industry, "Doom 3" has gone gold. That means with id Software's work done, publisher Activision is duplicating copies to ship to retail. What it all boils down to is you'll be able to pick up a copy at retail on Aug. 5, though some stores could start selling the game as early as Aug. 3. That's not just good news for anxious players. The release of the game could help spark a revival in the PC gaming industry, which hasn't seen a true blockbuster title since 2000's "The Sims". Since then, personal computers have been shoved to the background of the gaming world while the PlayStation 2 and Xbox game consoles have hogged the spotlight. Whereas previous versions of "Doom" have focused on frenetic action, encouraging you to shoot anything that moves, "Doom 3" is more story-focused and builds an atmosphere of suspense. I've had the opportunity to play several levels of the game and can report that it's one of the most immersive games the industry has seen. The graphics, as exhaustively reported elsewhere, are eye-popping, but that's only a part of the playing experience. Realistic physics and artificial intelligence are just as important in creating a truly scary game. Lights, for instance, cast real-time shadows -- and the demons you're fighting know how to use those shadows to their advantage. When you see a pinky demon (shown above): Run! For the most part, "Doom 3" is a single-player game. Multiplayer elements will only support up to four players, a minuscule number when compared to many of today's action games. The clever use of lighting and the more precise target areas will help it stand out, though. (While in previous games a shot in the general vicinity of your opponent would suffice, you'll have to aim a little more carefully now. It's literally possible to shoot under another character's arm.) The game will ship on either three or four CDs. Despite the hopes of hard-core gamers, though, there will not be a DVD version of the game, id Software CEO Todd Hollenshead told CNN/Money. "There's just not a compelling reason," he said, taking a break from a company celebration. More gaming news and commentary? Click the creature. "I know some gamers are hoping to use the DVD players on their machines for something other than watching movies, but there are downsides," he said. "For us the cost of the goods and the cost of the replication and having to make two masters just isn't worth it." "Doom" is one of those games even non-gamers have heard of -- one of the most successful franchises in the industry's history, earning id over $100 million in the past 10 years. And while id is closely held, there are several public companies that will see the benefits of the game's release. Publisher Activision (ATVI: Research, Estimates) is the big winner, of course. Analysts estimate the game will add $150 million to $200 million in revenue to the company's second and third fiscal quarters. Graphics manufacturer nVidia (NVDA: Research, Estimates) also stands to gain, as its GeForce FX cards have been named the recommended video card for the game. On a lesser scale, Intel and AMD could see a modest bump as "Doom 3" comes with some reasonably powerful system requirements. Activision Incorporated On a grander scale, though, "Doom 3" (along with "Half-Life 2," which is expected to ship later this year ) is expected to help reignite the PC gaming industry. Both games were originally scheduled for a 2003 release. Their delays were a significant factor in the 14 percent drop in PC gaming sales last year. Of course, id Software is not a dumb company. An Xbox version of "Doom 3" is well underway and was heavily shown at this year's E3 trade show. When that will hit the streets, though, is still up in the air. "We can't say, at this point, that it's going to come out this year," said Hollenshead. "There are a couple of big pieces of work that still have to be done."
