Installation Notes
Anaconda is the name of the Fedora installer. This section outlines issues related to Anaconda and installing Fedora 10.
Installation media
Anaconda tests the integrity of installation media by default. This function works with the CD, DVD, hard drive ISO, and NFS ISO installation methods. The Fedora Project recommends that you test all installation media before starting the installation process and before reporting any installation-related bugs. Many of the bugs reported are actually due to improperly-burned CD or DVDs.
mediacheck function is highly sensitive and may report some usable discs as faulty. This result is often caused by disc writing software that does not include padding when creating discs from ISO files. To use this test, at boot time hit any key to enter the menu. Then press the [Tab] key, add the option
mediacheck to the parameter list, and press [Enter] .
After you complete the
mediacheck function successfully, reboot to return the system to its normal state. On many systems this results in a faster installation process from the disc. You may skip the
mediacheck option when rebooting.
To perform memory testing before you install Fedora, press any key to enter the boot menu, then select Memory Test. This option runs the Memtest86 standalone memory testing software in place of Anaconda. Memtest86 memory testing continues until you press the [Esc] key.
Fedora 10 supports graphical FTP and HTTP installations. However, the installer image must either fit in RAM or appear on local storage, such as the installation DVD or Live Media. Therefore, only systems with more than 192MiB of RAM or that boot from the installation DVD or Live Media can use the graphical installer. Systems with 192MiB RAM or less fall back to using the text-based installer automatically. If you prefer to use the text-based installer, type
linux text at the
boot: prompt.
Changes in Anaconda
- NetConfig in NM -- Anaconda is now using NetworkManager for configuring network interfaces during installation. The previous backend tool was
libdhcp(which was a replacement for
libpump). Anaconda uses NetworkManager by communicating with it via D-Bus during installation. The move to NetworkManager in Anaconda is still ongoing and some things are not yet 100% functional, but the bulk of existing functionality has been retained. NetworkManager is enabled by default on newly installed systems, so moving to NetworkManager in Anaconda allows the installer to use the same network management tool that the final system uses. The move to NetworkManager brings some changes, most notably the removal of the network interface configuration screen in Anaconda. You are no longer asked to verify the network settings during installation. The screen now simply prompts for the hostname. The settings used during installation are written to the system.
- When using the
netinst.isoto boot the installer, Anaconda defaults to using the Fedora mirrorlist URL as the installation source. The method selection screen no longer appears by default. If you do not wish to use the mirrorlist URL, either add
repo=<your installation source>or add
askmethodto the installer boot parameters. The
askmethodoption causes the selection screen to appear as it did in previous releases. Boot parameters can be added by pressing the [Tab] key in the initial boot screen and appending your new parameters to the existing list. For more information, see the
stage2=descriptions at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/Options
Installation Related Issues
- When PXE booting and using a .iso file for the installation media via NFS you are now required to add method=nfsiso:server:/path to the command line.
IDE device names
Use of
/dev/hdX on i386 and x86_64 for IDE drives changed to
/dev/sdX in Fedora 7. If you are upgrading from an earlier version than Fedora 7, you need to research about the importance of labeling devices for upgrades and any partition limitations.
Not all IDE RAID controllers are supported. If your RAID controller is not yet supported by
dmraid, you may combine drives into RAID arrays by configuring Linux software RAID. For supported controllers, configure the RAID functions in the computer BIOS.
Multiple NICs and PXE installation
Some servers with multiple network interfaces may not assign eth0 to the first network interface as BIOS knows it, which can cause the installer to try using a different network interface than was used by PXE. To change this behavior, use the following in
pxelinux.cfg/* config files:
IPAPPEND 2 APPEND ksdevice=bootif
The configuration options above causes the installer to use the same network interface as BIOS and PXE use. You can also use the following option:
This option causes the installer to use the first network device it finds that is linked to a network switch.
Refer to http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DistributionUpgrades for detailed recommended procedures for upgrading Fedora.
SCSI driver partition limits
Whereas older IDE drivers supported up to 63 partitions per device, SCSI devices are limited to 15 partitions per device. Anaconda uses the
libata driver in the same fashion as the rest of Fedora, so it is unable to detect more than 15 partitions on an IDE disk during the installation or upgrade process.
If you are upgrading a system with more than 15 partitions, you may need to migrate the disk to Logical Volume Management (LVM). This restriction may cause conflicts with other installed systems if they do not support LVM. Most modern Linux distributions support LVM and drivers are available for other operating systems as well.
Disk partitions must be labeled
A change in the way that the linux kernel handles storage devices means that device names like
/dev/hdX or
/dev/sdX may differ from the values used in earlier releases. Anaconda solves this problem by relying on partition labels or UUIDs for finding devices. If these are not present, then Anaconda presents a warning indicating that partitions need to be labelled and that the upgrade can not proceed. Systems that use Logical Volume Management (LVM) and the device mapper usually do not require relabeling.
To check disk partition labels
To view partition labels, boot the existing Fedora installation, and enter the following at a terminal prompt:
Confirm that each volume line in the list has a
LABEL= value, as shown below:
/dev/hdd1: LABEL="/boot" UUID="ec6a9d6c-6f05-487e-a8bd-a2594b854406" SEC_TYPE="ext2" TYPE="ext3"
To set disk partition labels
For ext2 and ext3 partitions without a label, use the following command:
su -c 'e2label /dev/example f7-slash'
For a VFAT filesystem use
dosfslabel from the
dosfstools package, and for NTFS filesystem use
ntfslabel from the
ntfsprogs package. Before rebooting the machine, also update the file system mount entries, and the GRUB kernel root entry.
Update the file system mount entries
If any filesystem labels were added or modified, then the device entries in
/etc/fstab must be adjusted to match:
su -c 'cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.orig' su -c 'gedit /etc/fstab'
An example of a mount by label entry is:
LABEL=f7-slash / ext3 defaults 1 1
Update the grub.conf kernel root entry
If the label for the / (root) filesystem was modified, the kernel boot parameter in the grub configuration file must also be modified:
su -c 'gedit /boot/grub/grub.conf'
A matching example kernel grub line is:
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.20-1.2948.fc6 ro root=LABEL=f7-slash rhgb quiet
Test changes made to labels
If partition labels were adjusted, or the
/etc/fstab file modified, then boot the existing Fedora installation to confirm that all partitions still mount normally and login is successful. When complete, reboot with the installation media to start the installer and begin the upgrade.
Upgrades versus fresh installations
In general, fresh installations are recommended over upgrades. This is particularly true for systems that include software from third-party repositories. Third-party packages remaining from a previous installation may not work as expected on an upgraded Fedora system. If you decide to perform an upgrade anyway, the following information may be helpful:
Before you upgrade, back up the system completely. In particular, preserve
/home, and possibly
/opt and
/usr/local if customized packages are installed there. You may want to use a multi-boot approach with a "clone" of the old installation on alternate partition(s) as a fallback. In that case, create alternate boot media, such as a GRUB boot floppy.
After you complete the upgrade, run the following command:
rpm -qa --last > RPMS_by_Install_Time.txt
Inspect the end of the output for packages that pre-date the upgrade. Remove or upgrade those packages from third-party repositories, or otherwise deal with them as necessary. Some previously installed packages may no longer be available in any configured repository. To list all these packages, use the following command:
su -c 'yum list extras'
Kickstart HTTP Issue
When using a Kickstart configuration file via HTTP, kickstart file retrieval may fail with an error that indicates the file could not be retrieved. Click the OK button several times without making modifications to override this error successfully. As a workaround, use one of the other supported methods to retrieve Kickstart configurations.

Winterbourne House and Garden, University of Birmingham
Winterbourne is a rare surviving example of an early 20th century suburban villa and garden. The house was built in 1903 for John and Margaret Nettlefold, of Guest, Keen & Nettlefold. Designed as a small country estate the house boasted rustic outbuildings and large gardens.
Both the house and garden follow the style of the Arts & Crafts movement with examples of local craftsmanship throughout. The house has large airy corridors and south facing rooms designed to make maximum use of the sunlight.
Nettlefold was a pioneer of town planning who carried the ideas seen in his own home to the less wealthy areas of the city.
Margaret Nettlefold designed the garden, inspired by the books and garden designs of Gertrude Jekyll. After a period of restoration the garden was Grade II listed by English Heritage in 2008.
John MacDonald Nicolson was the last private owner of the house and a keen gardener. He developed many new areas, including a scree garden and small alpine features around the garden.
Nicolson died in 1944 and bequeathed the house and garden to the University. The garden became the University's Botanic Garden and new areas for teaching and plant conservation were developed within the historic layout.
The garden today is still used by students but is also open to the public to be enjoyed by everyone.
Venue Type:
Historic house or home
April - October 10.30am - 5.30pm
November - March 10.30am - 4.00pm
Last admission is an hour before closing.
Closed period: Please check our website.
2019 Prices
Adults £7.20
Concessions £6.20
Children (Under 5) Free
Gift Aid tickets are also available if you would like to support Winterbourne with a donation. University of Birmingham staff and students get free entry on production of their ID card.
Botanic gardens display collections of plants from all around the world. At Winterbourne there are over 1,700 different plants originating from as far away as Brazil and Japan, many you may recognise.
At home, your gardens, kitchen and medicine cupboards are filled with plants and plant ingredients from all over the world, from the wheat in toast, to the cotton in clothes, perhaps even the place you work is an industry which uses plant ingredients.
At Winterbourne there is a chance to see plants and plant habitats from around the world and to find out about the plant hunters who discovered them. Closer to home, our Botanical Birmingham project highlights and explains those plants in the garden particularly significant to the people of the West Midlands. A walk around Winterbourne really will take you on a journey around the world!

- Simultaneous measurement of up-welling spectral radiance using a fiber-coupled CCD spectrograph,
- Description
- Determination of the water-leaving spectral radiance using in-water instrumentation requires measurements of the upwelling spectral radiance (L u) at several depths. If these measurements are separated in time, changes in the measurement conditions result in increased variance in the results. A prototype simultaneous multi-track system was developed to assess the potential reduction in the Type A uncertainty in single set, normalized water-leaving radiance achievable if the data were acquired simultaneously. The prototype system employed a spectrograph and multi-track fiber-coupled CCD-detector; in situ in-water tests were performed with the prototype system fiber-coupled to a small buoy. The experiments demonstrate the utility of multi-channel simultaneous data acquisition for in-water measurement applications. An example of the potential impact for tracking abrupt responsivity changes in satellite ocean color sensors using these types of instruments as well as for the satellite vicarious calibration is given., Cited By (since 1996):1, Oceanography, Art.

- Results in coastal waters with high resolution in situ spectral radiometry: The Marine Optical System ROV,
- Description
- The water-leaving spectral radiance is a basic ocean color remote sensing parameters required for the vicarious calibration. Determination of water-leaving spectral radiance using in-water radiometry requires measurements of the upwelling spectral radiance at several depths. The Marine Optical System (MOS) Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) is a portable, fiber-coupled, high-resolution spectroradiometer system with spectral coverage from 340 nm to 960 nm. MOS was developed at the same time as the Marine Optical Buoy (MOBY) spectrometer system and is optically identical except that it is configured as a profiling instrument. Concerns with instrument self-shadowing because of the large exterior dimensions of the MOS underwater housing led to adapting MOS and ROV technology. This system provides for measurement of the near-surface upwelled spectral radiance while minimizing the effects of shadowing. A major advantage of this configuration is that the ROV provides the capability to acquire measurements 5 cm to 10 cm below the water surface and is capable of very accurate depth control (1cm) allowing for high vertical resolution observations within the very near-surface. We describe the integrated system and its characterization and calibration. Initial measurements and results from observations of coral reefs in Kaneohe Bay, Oahu, extremely turbid waters in the Chesapeake Bay, Maryland, and in Case 1 waters off Southern Oahu, Hawaii are presented., , ,

What made me think judging tacos would be a pleasant way to while away an afternoon? This is the question I asked myself -- about 12 tacos in -- at the Arizona Taco Festival held at Salt River Fields this past Saturday.
See also: 10 Favorite Tacos Right Now in Greater Phoenix
Don't get me wrong. I love tacos. And I've judged competitions before, so I knew going in that it wasn't going to be a piece of cake, so to speak. I guess what I didn't understand is what eating 24 tacos -- or really, 24 anything -- would feel like.
Here's how it went down -- literally:
After checking in at the front gate, I wandered the grounds -- past henna tattoo booths, a psychic who would read my future for 10 bucks, a chef demo stage, a Lucha Libre ring and a vast tequila expo -- until I found the judge's tent stuck off in the farthest back corner, its opening facing away from the activities of the festival. Ooh, we were being sequestered. How very official!
I checked in, received a badge that would allow me to eat and drink anything and everything for free (as if I'd actually want more tacos), found a taco-judging pal of mine who already knew the ropes and joined her at a table with four other judges, three of them seasoned in taco-evaluation. We chose our team captain whose duties would include displaying the boxes of tacos as they came in and gathering up our scores after each round.
There would be four rounds, one every hour, starting with chicken (noon), moving to pork, then beef and finally seafood (3 p.m.).
Some official person stood up and explained that scoring was 1 - 9, not 1- 10, one being inedible, nine being taco nirvana. And we were ready, all 40 of us, to start eating tacos.
Each contestant presented six tacos (one for each judge) in a specially designed box with six compartments. Contestants were allowed to decorate the boxes to the hilt, just as long as they didn't identify their restaurant or team name in any way.
Some came plain; some came fancy. And I found, over time, that once I got past the cute little sombrero or the clever serving plate, what really mattered to me most was how the taco tasted. We'd been told to think of it in just that way in our how-to-evaluate-a-taco class the week before, and that little insight proved to be true. Who gives a damn if the box is cute when the taco sucks? And conversely, who cares what the box looks like if the taco is delish? Even a cold Hamm's beer, tucked in the box (contestants were encouraged to be outlandish; beer bribes were okay too) didn't really add to or detract from the taco itself.
As the first box hit the table, our team leader opened it to show us how it was decorated, then passed out the six identical tacos inside, which we placed in the first square (of six) on our tasting placemats, adding the number our team leader called out in the top right corner of the square. We added that same number to our score sheets, proceeding in this fashion until our placemats contained six different tacos and our numbers were plugged in. Now we were ready to start eating and evaluating.
What ho! One of the first entrants chose to make Navajo tacos, putting spicy chicken on fry bread and getting all crazy with blue cheese, orange sections and an edible orange flower. It was out there, no question, but it was risky and fun and I really liked the oddball flavors together. My other favorite entry in the chicken category was completely traditional -- crispy shell, sprinkle of cotija cheese, shredded lettuce and a slice of avocado. Crunchy, simple, delicious. Yum!
One judge (a newbie) started making comments like, "I don't like this one" and "I love that one," and the veteran judges quickly shushed her because the idea here was not to come to consensus but rather to draw our own conclusions without anyone else's influence. We learned very quickly to limit ourselves to one, two, maybe three bites tops per taco. After each category, we got up and roamed around the festival. Okay, that's not quite true. Most of us headed straight for the tequila tent, where there was shade, plus a mind-boggling selection of premium tequilas to be sampled in tiny thimble-size cups. It was hot, though, and I knew I couldn't really keep a taco-centric head if I sipped more than a few at a time, which was definitely not the case for most of the 20- and 30-somethings who were in that tent with me. I also question just how much they were evaluating what they tasted, but hey, I was saving my judgment for the tacos.
So this is how the afternoon played out -- tacos passed around at the top of the hour, 20-30 minutes of eating and judging and then back out to the festival for more tequila-sipping and time-killing. I was full after round two, uncomfortable after round three and ready to shoot myself (and others) by round four. But I persevered until 3:45, when the seafood taco judging was over. Some people stayed on to judge guacamole and "anything goes." My stomach thought better of it.
What kills me about this process is the judging was so anonymous, we'll never really know if our favorite tacos were winners. . Based on the scores below, the brand new Milagro Grill swept the weekend. Owned by Ryan,Jaret, Brynn, Reed and Nana Johnson (members of the Macayo's family), Milagro's secret weapon is surely chef James Fox, who worked under Matt Carter at Zinc Bistro and The Mission.
I, for one, don't think I'll be interested in tacos for at least a month. But get this: festival organizer Dave Tyda was so tired and hungry when he closed down the event Saturday night that he swung into the drive-through at Taco Bell. Is that ironic or just a little sad?
Saturday's and Sunday's money-winners were:

Who is she?
Lilavady is a woman who often seems to be quite out of reach and this may be due to her natural reserve and aloof manner. In any case, Lilavady doesn´t leave a neutral impression on those she meets and her distant and apparently disdainful demeanour is certainly a factor in making her appear enigmatic. Introspective and very introverted, Lilavady tends to retreat into her ivory tower if life disappoints her, daydreams often bringing her the comfort that reality is unable to provide. Indeed, she is an inspired, sensitive and emotional soul who isn´t cut out for struggle or hardship and is allergic to stress. Rather possessive and overbearing, Lilavady is like the ant in the well-known fable: quite fond of material wealth and reluctant to lend or share her assets. She is something of an «outsider», perhaps because she is fiercely independent and stands out through her originality (be it an intellectual distinction or in the way she dresses), or because she isolates herself from others throgh her unceremonious and curt attitude. So yes, Lilavady is a particularly disconcerting and elusive female: communication can often be challenging for her, so she prefers to remain taciturn, half hoping that others will read her mind, often followed by disappointment when this results in her feeling misunderstood. However deep down, she is actually extremely determined and strong-willed! It is true that she can occasionally give in to laziness, putting off until tomorrow that which she could easily do today... But with the karmic 4, all extremes are possible, and Lilavady is just as likely to invest herself in her work (notably if she was born in April or on the 4th, 13th, 22nd or 31st, or if she has a life Path Number of 4) as to choose an easier life focusing on her home, family and personal relationships. As a child, it is necessary to provide constant motivation and encouragement in order to avoid her becoming withdrawn. Her clever and practical mind would benefit from manual or esthetic activities such as pottery, drawing or sewing, because Lilavady tends to be a perfectionist who is meticulous in all that she does.
What does she like?
Lilavady is a very sentimental creature who dreams of a cosy home and a heart that will keep her warm for a lifetime, and her priorities in life are to love and to be loved in return. Her natural inclination is to beauty and harmony, which is why she appreciates beautiful objects, elegant clothes and comfort. Gentlemen, be forewarned that Lilavady is likely to have difficulty choosing a partner (karmic 6) and when she does, she may still find plenty of reasons to be unsatisfied. It´s actually quite straightforward: she simply expects her Prince Charming to be handsome, wealthy, intelligent, courteous, conciliatory and in possession of a certain gift for psychology...

What does she do?
When it comes to professional commitment, Lilavady could be hesitant and allow herself to be influenced by her family environment (or she may actually step into the professional shoes of one of her parents). However, if she is able to choose she could be tempted by the artistic or esthetic domains (decoration, painting, drawing, hairdressing and floral art), where precision or thoroughness are prerequisite; occupations connected with the earth, nature or animals, or those of an avant-garde nature, most likely related to fashion or possibly the latest technology (information technology...), otherwise, she could choose an activity concerned with the care and support of others that would enable her to make the most of her psychological talents.

The Regimental Marches consist of the following:
Slow Marches
|"The March from Sciplo"
|"The Duke of York's March"
Quick Marches
|"The British Grenadiers"
|"The Grenadier's March" (in certain cases also used as a slow march)
|"The March from Scipio" was composed for the First Guards by Handel, and was presented by him to the Regiment before its inclusion in the opera which was first performed in 1726.
"The British Grenadiers" and "The Grenadiers March" were the marching tunes of the Grenadier Companies of the whole Army. They were adopted by the First Guards on becoming a Regiment of Grenadiers in 1815. The Grenadier Companies were the right flank Companies of Infantry Battalions. Their association with these two marches is perpetuated in the ceremony of Trooping the Colour when, whatever the regiment, The Escort for The Colour (the right flank company on parade) marches out to receive the Colour to the tune of "The British Grenadiers", and troops it along the line in slow time to the tune of "The Grenadiers' March".
The Regiment marches past in quick time to "The British Grenadiers", and into Camp or Barracks to "The Grenadiers' March", on which occasions the latter may be referred to as "The Grenadiers Return".

WASHINGTON -- The Phillies added a member to their front office Tuesday when veteran scout/front-office executive Bart Braun was hired away from the Tampa Bay Rays to serve as a special assistant to Amaro.
Braun has a long relationship with assistant GM Scott Proefrock that dates to their days with the Pittsburgh Pirates in the late 1980s. Both men eventually moved on to the Braves before being hired by Chuck Lamar in Tampa Bay to serve as co-assistant general managers.
According to Proefrock, Braun always has been a scout at heart, far more interested in the evaluation of talent as opposed to the financial side.
Amaro said Braun, 61, will focus most of his energies on the pro scouting, with his first assignment coming this winter when he goes to the Dominican Republic.
"He just adds to the best pro scouting staff that I think we have," Amaro said. "We feel this guy is a home run as far as his ability to scout and contribute to the club."
Amaro didn't anticipate any other significant changes to the front office and scouting department. There has been a great deal of grief levied toward Amaro and his staff this year thanks to the failure last winter to sign one of several right-handed-hitting veteran outfielders, instead entrusting John Mayberry Jr. to serve that role. The signings they made had more misses (Chad Qualls, Ty Wigginton, Laynce Nix, Jim Thome, Dontrelle Willis) than hits (Jonathan Papelbon, Juan Pierre).
"I stink," he said jokingly. "But I'm one of those guys who tries to look forward. I try not to look back unless I can learn something from it. There are moves we make that work out well, then the moves that don't work out well, you learn from them.
"I feel pretty confident in the people we employ to be the eyes and ears of the organization. I feel we have as good of people in our baseball ops department as there is in baseball."
Charlie Manuel has seen his team play like a cellar dweller for half a season, a contender for the other half.
That doesn't mean he thinks the Phillies have found religion since the All-Star break. Manuel still sees mistakes, lapses in focus, or "boneheaded" play in general, as he put it Tuesday.
"When you make the same mistakes over and over again, that's something I take seriously," Manuel said. "We want to win. We want to come back and be better.
"The ones that made mistakes seemed to make mistakes the whole year long."
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out where Manuel's displeasure lies. It certainly isn't with Chase Utley, and Jimmy Rollins, Ryan Howard and Carlos Ruiz aren't on the hook.
Third base has been a mish-mash of players, and the top in-house candidate to play there next year -- Freddy Galvis -- was a favorite of Manuel's precisely because his baseball instincts were advanced for a 22-year-old who wasn't expected to even start 2011 in the majors entering spring training.
That leaves the outfield. And Dom Brown and Mayberry might not get mentioned by name by Manuel, but ...
"I want us to play right," Manuel said. "If you play right and consistently day in and day out ... that's the way I want us to play. Don't even talk about the talent. You excel at playing the game right. It's not saying, 'My bad' or whatever. Forget that. Yeah, you'll make mistakes, but let's make those mistakes aggressive ones.
"It's up to me to make sure we work on those mistakes we make, and the coaches. That's their job. Next year I'll be talking more about the fundamentals of baseball."

VB.NET and C# - Duplication of Effort?
Patrick Hynds recently used a military analogy to contrast C# and VB.NET and their growing and increasingly obvious similarities. (I've always thought that the differences were just skins over IL myself.) Rocky Lhotka extended the analogy brilliantly:
The problem we have today, in my opinion, is that C# is a flying tank and VB is a heavily armored attack plane.
Microsoft did wonderful things when creating .NET and these two languages - simply wonderful. But the end result is that no sane person would purchase either a tank or an A-10 [ed: a plane] now, because both features can be had in a single product. Well, actually two products that are virtually identical except for their heritage.
Of course both hold baggage from history. For instance, C# clings to the obsolete concept of case-sensitivity, and VB clings to the equally obsolete idea of line continuation characters.
Unfortunately the idea of creating a whole new language where the focus is on the compiler doing more work and the programmer doing less just isn't in the cards. It doesn't seem like there's any meaningful language innovation going on, nor has there been for many, many years... [Rockford Lhotka]
Personally at this point, I don't see a reason for us to have two languages other than we always have. It started with C++/MFC versus VB1/2/3 in the early 90s and we'll never come back together. Some folks think that this is good because humans crave choice. Others think it's just wasting time and effort as we design language and development tools twice.
There seems there's always a need to have vanilla out there to balance out chocolate. Take a look at Billy Hollis' Tongue-in-Cheek "History of BASIC" and "History of C." Personally, I'll write in any language that makes me productive. VB.NET, Ruby, C#, Zulu, Amharic or Spanish. It's all just a way for us to express our intent to the machine.

GenScript's Rush Gene Service helps develop H7N9 vaccine
On May 10, 2013, Novavax announced that its vaccine candidate was developed and entered into pre-clinical trials in only 28 days
Singapore: GenScript, global provider of synthetic genes, has collaborated with NASDAQ listed Novavax in developing an avian influenza A/H7N9 vaccine candidate, by synthesizing three constructs containing genes that encode for key vaccine proteins.
On May 10, 2013, Novavax announced that its vaccine candidate was developed and entered into pre-clinical trials in only 28 days, less than six weeks after initial reports of H7N9 infections on April 1.
The manufacture of the constructs used in Novavax's H7N9 vaccine candidate is powered by GenScript's Rush Gene Service, which synthesizes gene sequences in as few as four days. Normally, it takes researchers, using traditional laboratory methods, two weeks or more to assemble constructs like those used to produce an H7N9 vaccine. However, as demonstrated by the rapid development of Novavax' vaccine candidate, the combination of gene optimization, rush gene synthesis and custom cloning, facilitated by GenScript's one-stop service platform, can drastically reduce assembly time, accelerating research and development.
"Our mission is to save lives by helping scientists accelerate their research. In this case, our Rush Gene Services are the perfect example of our commitment to our mission," said Dr Frank Zhang, CEO, GenScript.

Belt and braces approach may prevent deep vein thromboses
Combining short periods of leg compression with medications such as heparin is more effective at preventing blood clots in high-risk patients than using either preventative measure alone. A team of Cochrane Researchers believe that this 'belt and braces' approach can significantly decrease a patient's risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
DVT can be fatal if the clot breaks free and travels to the lungs (pulmonary embolism). They can also cause severe leg swelling and ulcers – a condition known as post-thrombotic syndrome.
While DVTs have grabbed media attention when they occur in people who have sat in cramped conditions (e.g. economy class syndrome), they are much more common in patients undergoing surgery, hospitalised with severe illnesses or with leg fractures. Most occur in the legs. Healthcare providers often recommend anticoagulant medications such as heparin, which thin the blood, as preventative measures for patients at high risk of DVT. Alternatively, using a pump to inflate an airtight bag around the leg can also prevent blood "pooling" and reduce the risk.
By analysing data from eleven trials involving 7,431 patients, Cochrane Researchers found that a combined approach to prevention reduced the risk of DVT from 4 in 100 to less than 1 in 100 when compared to anticoagulants alone. When compared to compression alone, the risk of DVT was reduced from 4 in 100 to 1 in 100.
"Our results support guidelines that already recommend the combined use of medication and leg compression to prevent deep vein blood clots," says lead researcher, Stavros Kakkos of the Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, Michigan.
There is, however, still some uncertainty as to whether the combined approach reduces a patient's risk of a life-threatening pulmonary embolism caused by a clot travelling to the lungs.
"If these clots get into the lungs they can be fatal. We urgently need more studies to find out whether combined preventative approaches are also useful in preventing pulmonary embolism," says Kakkos.

Rand Paul, the son of Texas Congressman Ron Paul, rode a wave of anti-establishment, T.E.A. movement sentiments in Kentucky that allowed him to defeat his establishment backed Republican opponent, Kentucky Secretary of State Trey Grayson by more than 20% in the state's primary. Grayson was even backed by the state's senior Senator, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell.
Paul went on to win the senate against in a a hard-fought battle against Kentucky Attorney General, Democrat Jack Conway (D) by with a mix of his father's Libertarian and continued energetic support from the T.E.A. Movement.
Rand's swearing in to the Senate and his father's swearing in to the House of Representatives marked the first time in congressional history that a child served in the Senate while the parent simultaneously served in the House of Representatives but Rand soon set out to become his own man and make his own mark on politics. After being assigned to serve on the Energy and Natural Resources, Health, Education, Labor and Pensions, Homeland Security and Government Affairs, and Small Business committees, Rand established the Senate Tea Party Caucus and his very Paul's first legislative proposal was to cut $500 billion from federal spending in one year. It included proposals This proposal include an 83% cut in funding of the Department of Education a 43% cut the Department of Homeland Security. Other measures in his spending bill included making the Department of Energy ia part of the Department of Defense and totally eliminating thr Department of Housing and Urban Development.
In total, his bill would dismantle seven more independent agencies, put an end to financial international aid spending, cut the food stamp program by 30 percent and reduce defense spending by 6.5 percent.
Since then, Paul was one of only two Republicans to vote against extending three key but controversial provisions of the Patriot Act, the provisions allowing for roving wiretaps, the search of business records and for conducting surveillance of "lone wolves".
Later in the year Paul was one of only nine senators to vote against a bill designed temporarily prevent a government shutdown that cut $4 billion from the budget. His reasons for his opposition to the bill was based on his belief that it did not cut enough from the budget and a week later, Rand Paul voted against the Democratic and Republican compromise budget proposals to keep funding the federal government and On April 14, Paul was one of 19 senators to vote against a budget that cut $38.5 billion from the budget and fund the government for the remainder of the fiscal year.
During the debt ceiling crisis, Paul stated that he would only support raising the debt ceiling if a balanced budget amendment was enacted and became a supporter of the Cut, Cap and Balance Act, which was tabled by the Democrats. On August 3, Paul voted against the inevitable bill that came before Congress to raise the debt ceiling.
Some of Paul's other initiatives in the Senate include calling for a no confidence confidence in Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, blocking legislation that would have supposedly strengthened safety rules for oil and gas pipelines because he felt the bill was not strong enough. he also blocked a bill that would provide $36 million in benefits for elderly and disabled refugees, because he was concerned that it could be used to aid domestic terrorists. This was in response to two alleged terrorists, who came to the United States through a refugee program and were receiving welfare benefits, were arrested in 2011 in Paul's hometown of Bowling Green. Paul lifted his hold on the bill after Democratic leaders promised to hold a congressional hearing into how individuals are selected for refugee status and request an investigation on how the two suspects were admitted in the country through a refugee program.
Rand Paul is most certainly a promising figure, but at this point in time, much of his reputation is that of his father's. For the anti-establishment, libertarian types, Rand Paul offers the hope that unlike his father, who has been in Congress for more than two decades and achieved absolutely legislative accomplishments to limit government in its size and scope, or to reduce spending, prehaps Rand Paul's being one of only a hundred members of the U.S. Senate, will enable to actually put some of his promised and ideas in to action. That has yet to be seen and much like former Senator Barack Obama, with less than two years in office, it might just be prudent to give time the opportunity to tell us who Rand Paul really is and what he is actually capable of.
But Rand Paul's popularity, especially among the T.E.A. movement types who Romney is not very popular with, could help Romney does make Rand Paul a real possibility for Romney to pick as Vice President. If Romney wants to win the presidency, he will need to get out the Republican in record numbers and Rand Paul could help do that. Another intriguing consideration is that the addition of Rand Paul to the ticket might just get many of Ron Paul's lunatic fringe followers to actually vote for a Romney-Rand Paul ticket. Many Ron Paul who will not be voting for the Republican candidate, regardless of who it is or could have been, will think twice about throwing their vote away on the doomed to failure Libertarian ticket now being headed by former G.O.P. presidential candidate and New Mexico Governor, Gary Johnson.
But picking Rand Paul to get Ron paul voters to vote for him, would be a mistake for Mitt Romney.
While Rand Paul will help among fiscal conservatives and can add to the ticket a degree of the anti-establishment popularity that Romney lacks, Rand is still too untested for the national stage. Furthermore, despite what some believe, Ron Paul's following is not quite as large as they would believe, which is perhaps why Ron Paul has failed to win the presidency as the Libertarian nominee in 1988, and has now twice failed to win the Republican presidential nomination.
Furthermore; Rand Paul has provided a lot of material of which the left will use to distract voters with He has given them plenty of material to exploit and dominate news cycles with in attempts to paint Rand Paul as an out of touch, extremist. Such a situation would end up creating a din of sensationalized headlines so loud and so often, that it would drown out such things as Romney's proposals to tackle create jobs, grow the economy, cut spending, and tackle the enormous, Obama dominated spending deficit. Rand Paul's record may be short, but it is rich with both scripted and unscripted, controversial remarks that would provide the left with an abundance of material to exploit and distract voters with. That combined with the fact that there are many more accomplished and experienced potential vice presidential nominees who can also appeal to the anti-establishment and T.E.A., movement voting blocs, and what you have is no real need for Romney to take a chance on Rand Paul.
- Rand Paul can attract support from among some Libertarians and from some of his father's militant followers who would otherwise avoid voting Republican
- Rand Paul's presence on the ticket would add an anti-establishment flavor to the ticket that Romney sorely lacks
- Rand's nomination for V.P. would help assure conservatives that Romney is more open to reform and more committed to extreme actions to solve our spending and budget problems than je so far demonstrated
- Rand Paul's coming from Kentuck ydoes not help to put a state in play for Romney. Kentucky has no chance of going for Obama in 2012 and even though Rand represents a Southern state, he has not yet established the type of popularity that would allow him to be a substantial regional influence for the Romney Ticket
- Rand has been quite prolific when it comes to saying controversial things. Between those remarks and record and his record, the left would be able to use Rand as a tool to distract voters with on a daily basis. For example
- Rand Paul lacks legislative and foreign affairs experience
- There are more accomplished and qualified potential candidate two can help the ticket far more than Rand Paul
- Although not as isolationist as his father, some of Rand Paul's positions significantly clash with basic conservative national defense positions
Thinking about picking Rand Paul for Vice President is more of a novelty than a serious consideration. This is especially the case when you realize that with no legislative accomplishments of his own yet, there are several far more deserving candidates who are just as strong on the same issues that make Rand Paul initially seem like a good choice for Romney.
Rand Paul presence on the ticket would also become more of a distraction than a benefit. A slew of controversial comments will be combined with his limited voting record and used by the left and the Obama campaign to try and make a Romney-Paul ticket look out of touch and extreme. And in doing so, each new news cycle would be dominated by a Paul oriented, liberal attack line rather than any focus of the Romney campaign to bring attention to the real issues and Obama's record.
For example Paul recently voted against reauthorizing the Violence Against Women Act. Now he did not do so because he supports violence against women. Of course he doesn't. But he voted against it because the bill contained langauge and measures that he believed were not appropriate and in some cases passage of the bill included passage of measures that were not germane to the issue. But take that vote and combine with something like the much discussed incident that came up in Paul's senate race. The Aqua Buddha incident in which an anonymous woman claimed that back in college, Rand Paul and a friend tied her up, tried to force her to smoke pot, and then took her to a creek, where they blindfolded her and forced her to bow down and worship something they called the "Aqua Buddha." That incident came out in the campaign and was discovered to have no truth to it, but since when did the truth have anything to do with news headlines and the impressions of others that liberals create? So just as an example, put those two stories together for a liberal media outlet and what you have is a false claim being combined with a false impression of Paul's reasons for voting against the Violence Against Women Act, and a story that a Romney-Paul be spend three days explaining away and being taken off message.
For that and all the other reasons outlined above, Rand Paul is probably not even being considered as a viable option for Vice President by the Romney campaign. But that hasn't stopped certain political circles and media outlets from declaring that Rand Paul is at least a possible dark horse nominee. So White House 2012 included Rand Paul in this series merely to address existing speculation. In the final analysis, Rand Paul has about as much of chance to be nominated for Vice President by Mitt Romney as does Hillary Clinton or Al Gore.

"Bought the Cyro Nova Elite and Signature IC's from John. Without a doubt, inserting John's cables into my hifi stereo system has made the greatest impact over any other cable I have tried. I only wish I would have tried these sooner! I am hooked!!!" Brian "Simply put...The best sounding interconnects I have ever heard, at a price that defies audiophile logic. Thanks John!" Eric W. "These IC's are insane! Soundstage blew up today... wider, bigger, deeper... more powerful... you are a cable genious." Jeff Please contact me with any questions about termination or length before the order. Thank you. Product: The Signature is my best selling Interconnect. They have been months in the making. They are a combination of a much more expensive deep submerged cryogenic treatment and a 100hr extremely high current burn in. I offer these in RCA or XLR Balanced. Also RCA-XLR combo. If you want a truely world class Interconnect for what a good interconnect costs, please try them and let your ears convince you. I use the best Solid Core OFC 99.999 copper that America makes in all of my IC's. 100% AMERICAN MADE. Please don't let the low cost suggest that they can't be that good. They are that good! As with all my products, there is a 30 day trial. If they aren't the best I.C. you ever heard (Except for my Reference IC), send them back for a full refund (less shipping). 1- Cryogenic Treatment. (72hr fully submerged) Cryogenic treated cables provide an extended dynamic range. In particular, high frequency range notes are much clearer and display less distortion. Measurements of cryo treated wires show that electrical and signal resistance is reduced after cryogenic treatment. 2- 100hr burn in. The burn in process is done by flooding the IC�s with high current. The current from a source (cd player, pre amp) is not enough to really do a full burn in. I use a very high current process that really opens the soundstage up dramatically. The end results is a much deeper soundstage that has much more space between instruments and still maintains a pinpoint image. No blurring of the image at all. It�s creates a very involving presence. Quite amazing to say the least. 3- Helical Twisted. I have pre-twisted the cable for you, which does a few things. 1- It gives a much wider bandwidth, lower inductance, and lower impedance . 2- It resists magnetic fields that are abundant in and around stereo equipment. 3- It makes cable management much easier. 4- 24kt gold plated RCA�s and XLR's by Neutrik. 5- Price is for a 1m or 1.5m pair. Additional lengths are $20 per foot extra. 6- International shipping will be quoted. Endless hours of testing have produced an IC that is the best I�ve ever heard at any price. Tonal balance is perfect. No forwardness at all. No edginess, just a smooth sonic character with exceptional detail. Soundstage is very wide and deep. Imaging is extremely focused with more space between instruments than I�ve ever encountered. Give them a try. I�m sure you�ll enjoy them. Thank you. John

It's that time in the Florida Legislature when surprises emerge from every corner as votes become commodities and policy debates take a back seat to raw gamesmanship with the clock ticking toward Friday's end of session.
So it is that we saw action this morning on House Speaker Will Weatherford's priority -- his bill to end the state's defined benefit system for new employees so that the state can shift the risk from taxpayers to workers. Senate leaders agreed to allow a version of his plan come up for a vote in the Senate, with no guarantee of passage. The board vote is being sought by the Florida Chamber and other proponents of the plan,which could potentially use it against Republicans in a primary.
In return for the favor, the House is expected to take up a bill to limit medical malpractice for doctors that is the priority of Senate President Don Gaetz's. Reps. Heather Fitzenhagen, R-Fort Myers, James Grant, R-Tampa, told the Herald/Times they have agreed to withdraw their amendments. The amendments were opposed by the bill's sponsors, including Gaetz' son Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Shalimar.
Among them was an amendment by Grant who believes that the medmal bill could be used by insurance companies who represent the doctors to create a private registry of gun owners.
Grant said he wasn't aware of a trade but wouldn't be surprised. He expects the House to take up the Senate bill.
"I have no idea what's been negotiated,'' he said. "If you are asking me whether or not I'm surprised trades are happening back and forth, that happens it's the end of session. Nobody has asked me to withdraw because of a vote on pensions or any other bills." Stay tuned.

BRISTOL, Conn., July 17 (UPI) -- ESPN, headquartered in Connecticut, announced former host Keith Olbermann is returning to the company with his own show on ESPN2.
The network announced Olbermann, who worked for the network from 1992 to 1997 and was best known as co-host of "Sportscenter," will be the host of his own show, "Olbermann," set to premiere at 11 p.m. Aug. 26 on ESPN2, the Bleacher Report reported Wednesday.
"Keith is a one-of-a-kind personality and these shows will be appointment viewing for that very reason," ESPN President John Skipper said. "Keith brings a blend of editorial sophistication and unpredictability -- you can never be sure what you'll get. 'Olbermann' on ESPN2 gives viewers the quality late-night complement to ESPN's 'SportsCenter' in the same way we've developed distinct show options across our networks the rest of the day."
Olbermann spent time as a political commentator with shows including "Countdown with Keith Olbermann" on MSNBC and the Current TV network, with which he recently ended a troubled relationship. ESPN said pop culture and current events will play into Olbermann's new show, but politics will be kept out of the mix.

Two billionaires are going head to head in a box office battle this month. Philip Anschutz's "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader" is facing off against Tim Headington and his Johnny Depp/Angelina Jolie thriller "The Tourist."
It is not the first time these billionaires have made big Hollywood bets. The two tycoons have plenty of company. Dozens of billionaires have spent excess cash funding the risky but sometimes glamorous business of Hollywood films. Some have scored big returns; others bankrolled flops.
Tim Headington has experienced both. Headington, who sold a piece of his family's stake in North Dakota's Bakken shale to XTO Energy for $1.8 billion and has a personal net worth of $2.65 billion, has backed two Martin Scorsese/Leonardo DiCaprio hits: "The Aviator" (five Oscars) and "The Departed" (four Oscars, including Best Picture).
But Headington experienced bad timing with "The Edge of Darkness," featuring beleaguered star Mel Gibson. That film grossed just $80 million on a budget of $80 million. He'll get another shot for box office bullion with "The Tourist." His other Depp film, "The Rum Diaries," is set to debut in 2011.
Forbes.com slide show: Billionaires bet on the box office
Anschutz, who ranks 34th on the 2010 Forbes 400 list with a net worth of $7 billion, earned a Best Picture Oscar for the Jamie Foxx hit "Ray." The Ray Charles biopic was a departure from the family-friendly flicks often produced by Anschutz' Walden Media. Besides the Narnia franchise, Anschutz has backed tame films like "Holes," "Hoot" and "The Tooth Fairy." Anschutz' fortune stems from investments in the railroad business, fiber optics (with Qwest Communications) and entertainment venues through AEG, which controls 120 sports and entertainment venues, including the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
EBay billionaire and former president Jeff Skoll usually produces films with a social message. His company, Participant Media, funded Al Gore's climate change documentary "An Inconvenient Truth." That film won an Oscar for Best Documentary and helped Gore score the Nobel Peace Prize. Other influential films include "Food Inc." and "Waiting for Superman."
He had less luck with the clumsy comedy "Furry Vengeance," about forest critters getting revenge on a land developer. That movie cost $35 million and grossed $36 million. Skoll, a Canadian who no longer works for eBay, has a net worth of $2.4 billion on Forbes' 2010 World's Billionaires list.

Ben Maxwell
North Vancouver British Columbia
Eligible for draft:
Trade with Montreal, 2011
177 lbs.
Prospect Talent Score
Probability of Success
According to head coach Cory Clouston, Ben Maxwell benefited from a season playing along side veteran Adam Cracknell (CGY), who finished third in WHL scoring. He was chosen second overall by Kootenay in the 2003 Bantam Draft. Maxwell was named to the U18 National Team and competed in the World Championship tournament in Sweden in April. He also played in the CHL/NHL Top Prospects game in Ottawa this season. As a WHL rookie, Maxwell played in 68 games, posting eight goals and 10 assists.
2005-06: Taking on a bigger role with increased ice time, Maxwell exploded in his second WHL season. His play also earned him a spot on the under-18 national team and the CHL/NHL prospects game this season. Maxwell was the 44th-ranked North American according to NHL Central Scouting's final numbers.
2006-07: In 39 games with Kootenay (WHL), Maxwell netted 19 goals and 53 points, one of his highest totals to date
2007-08: In his fourth full season with the Kootenay Ice (WHL), Maxwell netted nine goals and 27 points in 31 games. Expect to see him with Hamilton (AHL) next season.
2008-09: The center netted 22 goals and 58 points in 73 games with Hamilton (AHL) in his first year of professional hockey. He also appeared in seven games with the Canadiens, which was his first look at the NHL.
2009-10: Ben returned for a second season with Hamilton, once again playing an integral part of their offense, with 44 points in 57 games. A short 13 game stay with Montreal failed to yield results.
2010-11: Traded to Atlanta in a deadline deal, Maxwell scored his first NHL goal in a 12 game stint with the Thrashers. Having failed to register a point in 13 games with Montreal, the silky-smooth playmaker showed an increased desire to compete while in Atlanta, even dropping the gloves. A top scorer in the AHL, Maxwell had 40 points in 47 games with the Hamilton Bulldogs prior to the trade.
2011-12: Maxwell made the Jets out of training camp for the second straight season but after missing five games with an early season injury was placed on waivers and claimed by Anaheim. He was waived by the Ducks in December and re-claimed by the Jets. He played a total of 15 games in the NHL between the Ducks and Jets; spending most of the season with St. John's in the AHL. He scored 1 goal with 5 assists and was plus-four with 2 penalty minutes in his brief NHL time. Maxwell scored 8 goals with 17 assists and was minus-seven with 35 penalty minutes in 43 AHL games with the IceCaps. St. John's finished first in the Atlantic Division and reached the Easetern Conference finals. Maxwell scored 3 goals with 4 assists and was minus-four with 4 penalty minutes in 15 playoff games.
Talent Analysis
Cory Clouston, Kootenay Head Coach: "Depending on who we're playing, whether it's a road game or at home, it kind of varies who else he might play with. He's a key guy for us because when you play teams with three good lines, Ben will be matched up with somebody who has a real good physical presence. Ben is a guy who will make things difficult for opponents. He generally responds quite well in the physical department."


text: The goal of the Sustainability Research Networks (SRN) competition is to bring together multidisciplinary teams of researchers, educators, managers, policymakers and other stakeholders to conduct collaborative research that addresses fundamental challenges in sustainability. The 2014 SRN competition will fund research networks with a focus on urban sustainability. Proposals should identify an ambitious and nationally important theme in urban sustainability, present a creative and innovative research agenda that builds upon existing work in this area, and describe how a network of researchers and other stakeholders will be supported that integrates a variety of disciplines, sectors and backgrounds in order to create new perspectives and yield significant new understanding and knowledge.The Sustainability Research Networks competition is part of the growing NSF investment in its Science, Engineering and Education for Sustainability (SEES) portfolio (www.nsf.gov/sees/). Challenges associated with broadly based SEES goals will be met by supporting fundamental science and engineering research and education needed to understand and overcome the barriers to sustainable human and environmental wellbeing and to forge reasoned pathways to a sustainable future. NSF aims to support members of the academic research community for projects which produce discoveries and knowledge that will inform decisions leading to environmental, energy, social and cultural sustainability. NSF support will advance the frontiers of conceptual, empirical and computational research in science, engineering and education so that the nation has the knowledge base to inform policies on sustainability.

COURTHOUSE - They targeted real estate open houses during a recent theft scheme and now a Limerick man and a New Hanover woman, each who had previous burglary convictions, are headed back to prison.
Megan Anne McCormick, 36, of the 2700 block of Stacie Drive, New Hanover, was sentenced in Montgomery County Court to three to six years in a state correctional facility after she pleaded guilty to charges of theft by unlawful taking and conspiracy in connection with multiple thefts that occurred at real estate open houses in 2013 in Limerick, East Norriton and Upper Providence.
Jeffrey Douglas Ridenour, 33, of the 100 block of West Ridge Pike, Limerick, was sentenced to 1 ½ to five years in state prison after he pleaded guilty to taking part with McCormick in the October 2013 theft of jewelry during an open house at an East Norriton home.
'They went into homes that were open for sale and would go throughout the home and steal different items like jewelry and leave the house without anyone realizing anything was gone for a couple of days,' said Assistant District Attorney Jeremy Abidiwan-Lupo, who sought state prison time against McCormick and Ridenour.
'They targeted people who trusted the community to come to their houses, just to look at the homes, and these two individuals took advantage of that trust and really violated their sense of privacy in a great way,' Lupo added. 'They had a system of preying on open houses.'
President Judge William J. Furber Jr., who sentenced McCormick, and Judge Steven T. O'Neill, who sentenced Ridenour, told the defendants they will be responsible for paying restitution, which has yet to be determined. The judges also ordered McCormick and Ridenour to undergo drug and alcohol treatment and counseling.
With the charges, authorities alleged that on Oct. 6, 2013, McCormick and Ridenour, who court documents indicate have a child together, attended a real estate open house at a property in the 100 block of Hancock Boulevard in East Norriton after which the owner reported about $2,645 in jewelry went missing.
'(The realtor) reported the couple walked around the second floor unsupervised for a short period of time and then exited the house,' East Norriton Police Sgt. David W. Boyer wrote in the arrest affidavit. 'The thefts occurred on the second floor.'
Authorities subsequently linked McCormick to other thefts during open houses in Limerick, Skippack, Trappe and Upper Providence between February and October 2013, according to court papers.
'Jewelry was the primary stolen property in all incidents involving thefts,' Boyer and Upper Providence Detective Raymond D. Bechtel III wrote in a criminal complaint filed against McCormick.
On Oct. 18, investigators searched McCormick's residence and recovered 'a large amount of jewelry' there, according to the arrest affidavit.
Numerous pieces of the recovered jewelry were subsequently identified as having been stolen from the East Norriton home, court documents indicate.
It wasn't the first contact that McCormick and Ridenour had with law enforcement.
In June 2011, Ridenour, then 30, was sentenced to three-to-six years in state prison after he pleaded guilty to a felony charge of burglary in connection with a February 2011 break-in at a Limerick business. Ridenour was on parole at the time of his latest arrest.
In November 2012, McCormick, then 35, was sentenced to 11 ½ to 23 months in county jail and eight years' probation after she admitted to participating with two others in a series of residential burglaries in several communities between September and November 2011, according to court records. McCormick also was on parole or probation at the time of her latest arrest.
