How is there no Kessel vs. John Scott thread yet?!
posted at 9/22/2013 10:49 PM EDT
First, I haven`t seen a guy run away like that in ages - since Denis Savard in the early 80s. Then Phil swings a wild two-hander out there, and then things go geek. Give Phil credit - he opened up Flynn, but then what the f--- is he thinking going back after Scott and giving him a jab with the stick? After everything is settling down?
Fun to see Miller tuned up by Bernier, though.

John Scott just doesnt belong in the league. I usually dont like the stick work but I loved what Kessel did here. Seriously John Scott? Tropp gets laid out in a fight in which he was a willing combatant and his response is to go after Phil Kessel??

So the edict from the NHLPA is remove the other guys helmet as Phil did. Phil apparently played LaCrosse in Wisconsin (leg whack) and watched Ivan Putski give the eye rake quite a bit.
Scott, Thornton and the rest of the bozos know it's almost the end of the line. Get rid of these bums!

In some strange way, I actually gained some respect for Kessel, although coming back at the very end to get another spear in on Scott was just silly and pathetic.
I just hate to see a useless thug like Scott trying to jump a star player, in the preseason. It's awful. Sure Phil ran and swung his stick, but what's he supposed to do? Surprised he didn't just turtle. Then he gave a pretty spirited fight to Flynn. Good for him.
John Scott has no place in this league. It's embarassing for the sport.

Nothing better than seeing Miller get smacked around.
Thought Scott was a clown, as usual.
Kessel was great...loved his response. No "spear" by the way, puts the flat part of his blade into Scott's pants, no harm there.
Biggest loser? Flynn leaking after getting smoked by Kessel.

Scott was sent onto the ice for what Buffalo thought was a clear mismatch and abuse of their team mate ~ Devane (6'5) vs Tropp(6')
You can argue till your blue in the face, BUT i'd be disappointed if the Bruins didn't do the same.

Anyone remember Tropp's involvement in this cheap-shot on Steve Kampfer from Michigan vs. Michigan State days?
Tropp was suspended for the rest of the year for his actions.

Yeah i gotta agree with everything Fletch has said here.
Tropp without a doubt initiated the fight. You cant get mad if you pick a fight and lose.
John Scott is the biggest joke in the history of the NHL. Scott is what 6'8? Kessel is at a towering 5'10 if im not mistaken and also has one career fight under his belt. I HATE when people use a stick for a weapon, but the first wack Kessel gave Scott i have no issue with. Scott deserved that.
Did Phil Kessel win a fight? HOLY CRAP! Never thought id see the day.

It's possible Buffalo thought Devane drove Tropps head onto the ice, which was my first impression.
It's easy to look at it in slow mo and pick it apart, but things happen quickly and angles can be deceiving.

Wow. Kessel takes two two-handed chops at a player and he gets props here. I don't care who you are or who's coming to get you, that's unacceptable. Hey, if you want to skate away from a guaranteed beating, that's almost understandable, but swinging you stick like that is never acceptable.

The first whack gets a pass by me. Its something that shouldnt be in hockey. But also 7 feet tall apes shouldnt be looking to drop the gloves with 5'10 snipers that dont fight and arent interested. Scott is a joke. Its obvious phil wasnt going to fight him. Why did Scott drop the gloves like he had something to prove against lil Phil?

Successful completion of the B.A.Sc from the Integrated Elementary and Special Education (IESE) program qualifies students to apply for state licensure to teach K-6 elementary education and K-12 special education in the areas of learning disabilities and emotional behavior disorders. The major also provides a good foundation for programs leading to licensure as an elementary principal or school counselor, employment in public and private schools as well as correctional settings, human service agencies, hospital-based settings and private practice.
An effective teacher should possess a broad background in liberal and professional education. This professional program focuses on the structure of the various disciplines, the child as learner, the learning environment, diverse learners, teaching strategies in a practicum setting, and student teaching experience in both elementary and special education settings. All students complete a common core of courses in elementary and special education with emphasis in assessment, management, reading, math and teaching strategies.
Elementary and special education licensure requirements are established by the state of Minnesota and guided by national standards. Those requirements are changed periodically. For this reason, all IESE majors should maintain contact with their adviser as they advance through the program.

Acts of the Apostles 3:13-15.17-19.
The God of Abraham, (the God) of Isaac, and (the God) of Jacob, the God of our ancestors, has glorified his servant Jesus whom you handed over and denied in Pilate's presence, when he had decided to release him.
You denied the Holy and Righteous One and asked that a murderer be released to you. The author of life you put to death, but God raised him from the dead; of this we are witnesses.
Now I know, brothers, that you acted out of ignorance, just as your leaders did; but God has thus brought to fulfillment what he had announced beforehand through the mouth of all the prophets, that his Messiah would suffer.
Repent, therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be wiped away.
Psalms 4:18.104.22.168.
Answer when I call, my saving God.
In my troubles, you cleared a way;
show me favor; hear my prayer.
Know that the LORD works wonders for the faithful;
the LORD hears when I call out.
Many say, "May we see better times!
LORD, show us the light of your face!" Selah
In peace I shall both lie down and sleep,
for you alone, LORD, make me secure.
First Letter of John 2:1-5a.
My children, I am writing this to you so that you may not commit sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous one.
He is expiation for our sins, and not for our sins only but for those of the whole world. The way we may be sure that we know him is to keep his command ments.
Whoever says, "I know him," but does not keep his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
But whoever keeps his word, the love of God is truly perfected in him. This is the way we may know that we are in union with him.
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke 24:35-48.
The disciples of Jesus recounted what had taken place along the way, and how they had come to recognize him in the breaking of bread.
While they were still speaking about this, he stood in their midst and said to them, "Peace be with you."
But they were startled and terrified and thought that they were seeing a ghost. Then he said to them, "Why are you troubled? And why do questions arise in your hearts? Look at my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Touch me and see, because a ghost does not have flesh and bones as you can see I have."
And as he said this, he showed them his hands and his feet. While they were still incredulous for joy and were amazed, he asked them, "Have you anything here to eat?" They gave him a piece of baked fish; he took it and ate it in front of them.
He said to them, "These are my words that I spoke to you while I was still with you, that everything written about me in the law of Moses and in the prophets and psalms must be fulfilled."
Then he opened their minds to understand the scriptures. And he said to them, "Thus it is written that the Messiah would suffer and rise from the dead on the third dayand that repentance, for the forgiveness of sins, would be preached in his name to all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem.

After voting in April to end Medicare as we know it for seniors, on May 3rd Republicans voted to reduce access to health care for small businesses and uninsured Americans. H.R. 1213, Repeal of Grants to States to Set Up Health Insurance Exchanges, passed by a vote of 238-183. The bill repeals the mandatory funding provided to states under the Affordable Care Act to establish exchanges. The bill thereby denies states the necessary funding to establish the new health insurance marketplaces and undermines the work they have already done to implement exchanges. The Obama Administration has threatened to veto this bill.
Key facts:
Numerous Groups Are Opposed to This GOP Bill, Including AARP, American Hospital Association, American Heart Association, American Diabetes Association, and American Cancer Society. As the AARP pointed out in its letter of opposition, "Exchanges are intended to facilitate the purchase of affordable health insurance by individuals and small employers, and they offer the opportunity to fundamentally alter and improve health care delivery, quality, and efficiency across the country. Exchanges are vital in the effort to extend health coverage to millions of uninsured Americans, while improving access and affordability for those already in the individual and small group markets."
Given Tight State Budgets, Guaranteed Federal Dollars Are Needed to Ensure States Can Plan for and Establish The Exchanges. Current budget deficits in most states have created difficult economic environments to establish state-based exchanges. Without reliable grants from the Department of Health and Human Services, states would be forced to look for scarce funds in their own budgets to set up the exchanges, and some would likely be unable to find them.
The Inevitable Result of Enactment of this Bill Would Be That A Number of States That Would Prefer to Run Their Own Exchanges Would Be Unable to Do So, Resulting in Federal Control. Already 49 states and the District of Columbia have shown an interest in the setting up of an exchange marketplace on their own. A repeal of the exchange grants is effectively taking away from a number of these states the ability to set up their own state-run exchanges. CBO agrees. It states, "Under H.R. 1213, CBO assumes… that the federal government will be required to take responsibility for setting up exchanges in more states than is expected under current law."
Despite GOP Claims, Mandatory Appropriations in Health Care Are Not Uncommon. Republicans claim that they oppose these exchange grants because they do not support such mandatory appropriations. And yet GOP-controlled Congresses have created many mandatory appropriations. For example, the Medicare Modernization Act contained hundreds of billions of dollars in mandatory appropriations, including an open-ended but time-limited mandatory appropriation for a drug assistance program. That program, like the exchange grants, served as a bridge until the full Rx drug benefit became effective.
GOP Is Now Trying to Repeal Health Reform Piece by Piece. The GOP's focus is not "mandatory appropriations;" it is repealing health reform. The GOP passed full repeal of the Affordable Care Act in January, but it will not move in the Senate. H.R. 1213 represents one more bill in the Republicans' new line of attack to disrupt, dismantle, and ultimately destroy health reform - one piece at a time.
States Have Already Been Awarded Vital Exchange Grants to Plan For These Exchanges. 49 states and the District of Columbia, along with four Territories, have been awarded almost $54 million in exchange grants so far by HHS. This first round of grants gives states resources to conduct the research and planning needed to build a better health insurance marketplace and determine how their exchanges will be operated and governed. This Republican bill would rescind unobligated funds from the $54 million states have been awarded in planning grants, and would prohibit further funding, limiting states' ability to proceed on the establishment of their exchanges.
Ironically, Republicans Are Repealing Grants That Provide States Substantial Flexibility in Designing Their Own Exchanges. Under reform, states have substantial flexibility to establish exchanges to meet the unique needs of their residents. Republicans are now repealing grants that allow states to implement that flexibility. For example, the state can determine which insurers are permitted to offer products in the exchange, the variety of plans that can be offered, the exchange's governance structure, the financing mechanism that will be used to operate the exchange, and how involved the exchange will be in enforcing health insurance market standards.
CBO Estimates Actual Loss of Exchange Grants to the States is $1.9 Billion under Bill. In its cost analysis, the CBO estimates that the actual loss of exchange grants to the states under the bill is $1.9 billion. However, the CBO points out that, as a result of the bill, HHS would need additional resources to set up exchanges if the state grants are removed, because a number of states would be unable to set up their own exchanges and the federal government would have to step in and create federally-controlled exchanges. (These additional resources would counteract these savings.)
The Vast Majority of Bill's Savings Found by CBO Are Due to Its Disrupting and Delaying Establishment of the Exchanges. CBO found total savings from the bill of about $14 billion - but about $12 billion was the effect of delaying effective implementation of the exchanges (resulting in lower enrollment and therefore lower subsidies between 2014 and 2016.) The CBO determines that, under H.R. 1213, there will be delays in the timely establishment and effective operation of the exchanges from this loss of funding. CBO estimates that these delays will result in 2 million fewer people being able to access health insurance through exchanges in 2015 alone. It is this inability to access insurance (and subsidies) that yields the additional $12 billion in savings. This $12 billion comes at the expense of low and moderate income Americans not being able to access health insurance through exchanges.
Less than three weeks after passing their budget to end Medicare as we know it in order to give Big Oil more tax breaks, Republicans have voted again to risk Americans' health care.
From the start of this Congress, Republicans have made repealing patients' rights and eliminating access to affordable health care their top priority - while ignoring Americans' top priority: jobs.
It is now time for Republicans to focus on jobs, end their drive to end Medicare as we know it and schedule votes to end taxpayer subsidies for Big Oil. Democrats are committed to creating jobs, responsibly reducing the deficit, strengthening the middle class, and growing our economy.

Supporting America's Lower-Middle-Class Families
More than half of American families earn $60,000 or less a year -- outside of poverty but with limited economic security. Many of these families rely on government programs for support and one major setback could throw their lives into chaos. On December 4th, The Hamilton Project hosted a forum to highlight two new proposals for aiding America's lower middle class families featuring a diverse range of experts.

The state of Minnesota requires that all students born after 01/01/1957 be immunized against diphtheria and tetanus (TD), and measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) and provide their vaccination dates.
If you have had measles, mumps, or rubella, the law requires that you either have a blood titre (blood test) done to prove immunity (please send a copy of the laboratory work) or a physician's signed document attesting to the disease, and also the month and year in which you had the disease.
There is no titre that is acceptable as proof of immunity to diptheria-tetanus.
Students are to enter the following information into Murphy Online under the Student Service tab:
- The 2 dates of your measles, mumps, rubella (MMR) vaccination
- The date of the tetanus-diphtheria (TD) vaccine (must be within the past ten years)
Note: All new students must enter their MMR and TD dates by the 45th day of class. Click here to enter your Immunization Record
If you have a medical condition that precludes the administration of the necessary vaccinations, please have a physician sign a medical waiver explaining the condition and why the immunizations should not be done.
If you have a philosophical objection to the immunizations, please write the objection and have your signature notarized by a notary public. Please be aware that if an outbreak of measles, mumps or rubella does occur, persons requesting a medical waiver or philosophical objection will not be allowed to attend classes until the outbreak is over.
International students also need to be screened for TB and may be required to have a tuberculin (TB) test. We provide these tests at Health Services.
The following immunizations are also recommended for students but not required. They can also be entered into Murphy Online.
- Hepatitis A
- Hepatitis B
- Inlfuenza Vaccine
- Meningitis
- Polio Vaccine

Stevie running routes after practice
by Joe Buscaglia
posted Jun 12 2012 3:40PM
As Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stevie Johnson continues to fight his way back from minor off-season surgery on his groin, he's doing more and more as the days go on.
Following Tuesday's session of Organized Team Activities, Johnson and second-year wide receiver Kamar Aiken ran routes with quarterback Brad Smith throwing them the ball. The three did this for a solid twenty minutes or so, and concluded with a completed post corner route.
Johnson said on Monday that he hopes to be able to participate in the team's mini-camp that starts on Tuesday, June 19.

RIDGWAY – Runners converged On Ridgway for the inaugural Trail Town 10-Miler race on Saturday, June 16.
The course started and finished on Palomino Drive in Ridgway's Trail Town, taking in a scenic lollipop-shaped loop along county roads in the Cow Creek and Owl Creek vicinity. The race attracted 38 competitors ranging in age from 14-75.
"Although it was a small field, a good time was had by all," race coordinator John Ferguson said. "It was a nice small-town event."
The top two women finishers, Tracy Colliander and Lanny Barnes, are 30-year-old identical twins from Durango. They are both on the USA Olympic Biathlon team, and finished in a virtual tie. They set a smoking pace, coming in at 1:11:22 and 1:11:23, respectively.
Top male finishers were 20-year-old Luke Wempe, who finished in 1:10:52, and Terry Daley, 51, who came in second place overall with a time of 1:11:02. The youngest runner to complete the course, 14-year-old Wesley Twiggs, came in at 1:33:59.
The Trail Town Distillery, which sponsored the race, provided unique awards: shot glasses, vodka, ginger ale, T-shirts and visors.
The Trail Town 10-Miler was the second installment of a six-part running event called the Ouray County Race Series which strings together a couple of well-established foot races along with some new ones, to offer a varied menu of running events in Ouray County from May through October.
There are still four races to go in the series:
• July's event is the Ourayce, a 10-K fun-run that has taken place in Ouray every Fourth of July since the early 1980s, and a fundraiser for KURA, Ouray's student-run public radio station.
• On August 11, it's the Mt. Sneffels Marathon/ Half Marathon (mtsneffelsmarathon.com), a popular annual fundraiser for the Mt. Sneffels Education Foundation.
• The Ouray Mountain Trail Run (ouraytrailrun.org) is front and center on Sept. 29. This 14-mile endurance trail race circumnavigating Ouray is the only true trail run of the series.
• The race series wraps up on Oct. 27 in Ridgway with the second annual Rhythm Run 10K/5K. This race is hosted by Ridgway High School music department.

Gone in a flash
Mets left speechless after monumental collapse
Posted: Sunday September 30, 2007 8:45PM; Updated: Monday October 1, 2007 12:39AM
NEW YORK -- When the end mercifully came, when the greatest late-September collapse in baseball history was complete, all Willie Randolph could do was stand alone -- his arms at his side, straight as pipes -- and say nothing.
A grisly silence consumed Shea Stadium in the moments following the Mets' 8-1 debacle against the Marlins on Sunday afternoon, and in the shadows of the home dugout, Mets players and coaches one by one filed past the manager, saying nothing. What was there to say? The manager stared at the empty field. Only when the last man was gone did the manager begin his own long march to his team's clubhouse; the savage New York media awaited. So, too, did a long and cruel offseason.
"We thought we were going to win and move on today," a stone-faced Randolph said as he faced the media after the game. "Everything comes down on you real quick."
Here's how quick: by 1:20 p.m. EST on Sunday, the Mets were already down 4-0, and before a New York hitter even took a swing at the plate, the Mets were staring at a 7-0 deficit thanks to the worst start of Tom Glavine's career.
"The key pitch for me was the changeup. I just was having a hard time being consistent with it," reasoned the lefthander, who allowed seven runs in his 1/3 inning cameo.
Winless with a 9.50 ERA over his last four starts of the season, Glavine, who has now likely thrown his last pitch in a Mets uniform, ambled off the mound in the first showered by boos from the disgusted faithful. By the seventh inning, a crowd had begun to form for the 7 train headed back to Manhattan at the Willets Point stop. There was nothing left to see.
They had sleepwalked through the last two weeks of the season as if entitled to the NL East crown, and fresh off a 13-0 whitewashing of the Marlins on Saturday, the Mets appeared remarkably relaxed -- almost too relaxed -- before Sunday's game, with everything on the line. Before batting practice Jose Reyes and a half-dozen Mets slouched on leather couches, cackling as they watched the PG-comedy Rookie of the Year on a big-screen TV. Glavine had a hard time suppressing a yawn as he sat at his locker.
After the game all TV sets were off -- alas, there were no longer any relevant baseball games being played elsewhere in the country -- as some Mets players sat on chairs in front of their lockers with their heads down; others gazed blankly around the room, at nothing in particular. One by one they spoke:
Pedro Martinez: "We f---ed it up as a team, plain and simple." Carlos Delgado: "It's surreal. You just can't believe any of it." David Wright: "We played beyond horrible." Billy Wagner: "We're all shocked."
In the end, there was nothing more to say.

A bill making its way through the N.C. House would make it legal for nonprofits to use casino-style gaming as a fundraising technique by allowing them to host "game nights."
"It's a fun way for the nonprofit to make money," explained Frank Gray, counsel for the North Carolina Restaurant and Lodging Association.
He says the NCRLA is backing the bill because the restaurants and hotels who would host these game nights would benefit as well.
The bill does have restrictions.
The only games allowed to be played would be roulette, blackjack, poker, craps, Keno and merchandise Wheel of Fortune.
Before a nonprofit could host a game night, it would have to obtain a permit from the Alcohol Law Enforcement agency of the Department of Public Safety.
Only nonprofits who have been in existence for at least five years could qualify, and they would only be permitted to host four game nights per year.
There are also limits on the number of these game nights each restaurant or hotel can host.
While the games can be played under normal rules, no cash prizes can be given out.
"There is no money at risk," Gray said.
But the bill is not coming without opposition. Some organizations say the risks of gambling, even for a good cause, still greatly outweigh any benefits.
"We all want to help nonprofits, but this would not be a good way to accomplish that," explained Jere Royall, counsel for the North Carolina Family Policy Council.
The NCFPC researched several states with a similar law already on the books.
"Non-profits receive only, on average, 4 to 5 percent of the proceeds, while the state sees increases in the problem of addicted gamblers; along with the related social ills of crime, bankruptcy and broken families," Royall said.
Supporters say the bill has the right safeguards in place to make keep that from happening, but others disagree.
It will be a gamble the state legislature will have to decide whether to bet on.
The bill is scheduled to move before the House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday.

Outstanding peach and jasmine, it's definitely feminine scent but oddly fits for men, too. It feels vivid just like real scent. Popular and well-made fragrance.

For most, at the age of training wheels and tree forts, they become our first opponent – encompassing the true definition of backyard rivals.
Before there was even a score board to light up, a defender to dodge or reserve chip shot to save, siblings helped nurture and grow our ambitious spirit with playground games of tag and tether ball. As the years passed transitioning from our elementary days to elite field hockey players our siblings have always been a constant encourager and motivator inadvertently preparing us for relentless competition on the pitch. This year at the Women's National Championship four sets of sisters have earned their spot at the tournament bringing their will to win and their family name.
Emma and Meg Bozek (Cortlandt Manor, N.Y.), Kelsey and Katelyn Smither (Suffolk, Va.), Tara, Michelle and Carissa Vittese (Cherry Hill, N.J.), Meghan and Rachel Dawson (Berlin, N.J.), Katie and Julia Reinprecht (Perkasie, Pa.)
usafieldhockey.com caught up with the four sets of sisters for a quick interview.
USA Field Hockey: Describe your sister off of the pitch.
"Kelsey is caring, honest and passionate about everything she does. She is fun-loving, goofy and a great dancer. We jokingly say that even though we are six years a part, we are twins and practically the same person. Well, minus the dancing." – Katelyn Smither
USA Field Hockey: What's your chemistry like together on the pitch?
"Chemistry is hard to come by on a hockey pitch. It is ignited and intensified by friendship, love and a mutual respect. And having chemistry is electric. It's one of the greatest ways to play the sport. Carissa and I are great friends the kind that argue and make up in three minutes and only sisters, married couples and best friends understand that analogy. The chemistry between us reflects our relationship is empowering. I love having her on the field next to me and I trust her with my life. It's hard to earn that type of trust. I guess that's what 21 years together does." – Michelle Vittese
USA Field Hockey: What do you admire most about your sister as an athlete?
"As an athlete, I admire her work ethic the most. It reflects in all other things she does as well like her job, her new marriage, and as a sister, friend, and daughter. She will give you everything she has all the time, and she has high expectations for herself as well which just adds to the discipline she has overall. She wants to leave it all out on the field, every practice and every game." – Kelsey Smither
USA Field Hockey: What's your favorite field hockey memory with your sister?
"Beating Garden City in state semi-finals my sophomore year and Meg's senior year. We won in overtime in a very dramatic finish. That might be the only time I've ever cried happy tears, lame, I know, but I'll never forget celebrating that win with her." – Emma Bozek
USA Field Hockey: When did you and your sisters start playing field hockey?
"I have been playing field hockey since sixth grade. Michelle started when she was in fifth grade and Tara started when she was in fifth grade as well. So that would make it 10 years. We first got involved with field hockey through the sport my father played, roller hockey. I started playing roller at the age of six and I loved it more than anything, but there wasn't really roller hockey at school, so we started playing field hockey, which was close enough. It was actually very easy to pick up from roller hockey, even though the rules and equipment are extremely different. My mother also wanted us to play field hockey because that is what she played growing up. I guess it runs in the family." – Carissa Vittese
USA Field Hockey: What's it like to compete at WNC with your sister?
"It is an honor to play at such a high level tournament with my sister, but also something that is very special for us because we so rarely get to compete with or even against each other on the hockey field because of our age difference. Of course, because we are on different teams, it will turn into a competition as everything we are around does. However, I'm so grateful I will get to see her compete and have the opportunity for selection throughout the summer in hopes of representing the US in the Junior World Cup." – Katelyn Smither
These siblings prove their biggest supporter isn't necessarily on the stands but right alongside them on the turf. For more WNC coverage checkout usafieldhockey.com and @USAFieldHockey for tournament updates, results and features.

Genomic Sequencing Center for Infectious Diseases
The Broad Institute Genomic Sequencing Center for Infectious Diseases (GSCID) was established by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) to transform biodefense and infectious disease research by creating resources for DNA sequencing, genotyping and comparative genome analysis. This five-year contract builds on the work of our previous Microbial Sequencing Center (MSC) award. The GSCID offers high-throughput genomic technologies suitable for sequencing many hundreds of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, and fungi, as well as parasites and insect vectors of disease. Sequencing projects typically take advantage of comparative approaches to analyzing the sequence of key pathogenic organisms and closely related species. For example, by sequencing and comparing many strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, scientists will try to identify genes and evolutionary processes involved in pathogenicity, transmission and drug resistance.
The GSCID, led by Bruce Birren, provides the opportunity for researchers with knowledge about specific microbes to collaborate with GSCID scientists with expertise in state-of-the-art methods for sequencing, genotyping and genome analysis to address questions in infectious disease. All data, as well as new analytical tools, are shared publicly to advance research in infectious diseases.
The Broad's GSCID is one of three such centers. The others are at the J. Craig Venter Institute and the Institute of Genome Sciences at the University of Maryland School of Medicine. Members of the community can nominate projects to be carried out at these centers by submitting white papers describing the goals and benefits to the community.
Please contact us with any questions.
Defining the Genetic Determinants of Multiple Drug Resistance in Mycobacterium Tuberculosis
The overarching goal of this project is to identify the entire complement of naturally occurring mutations that are responsible for drug resistance (DR) in clinical Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). We will create a comprehensive catalog of DRconferring mutations by sequencing large numbers of geographically and phenotypically diverse Mtb strains that have been quantitatively characterized for their resistance to a broad spectrum of first and second line antibiotics. The DR catalog will provide a critical resource for addressing some of the most pressing needs in treating tuberculosis (TB) in the clinic:
- rapid tests for accurate diagnosis of drug resistance in TB to guide treatment
- new targets for developing improved anti-TB therapeutics
Among bacterial diseases, TB is the leading cause of death worldwide, with an estimated 1.3 million deaths attributed to TB in 2008. Though historically treatable with standard first-line anti-TB therapy (primarily rifampin, isoniazid, pyrazinamide and sometimes ethambutol), new strains are emerging that are resistant to some and, in some reports, ALL first and second line antibiotics (fluoroquinolones and aminoglycosides). The inability of clinicians to quickly and accurately determine the DR profile of strains associated with new clinical cases of TB further confounds TB treatment and control. The weeks-long time period required to profile new strains for DR means that many patients face delays in treatment, treatment with ineffective drugs and, worse yet, treatment with unnecessary – first line – drugs that increase the opportunity for new DR forms of the bacterium to arise and spread among the bacterial population and the humans that carry them.
The lack of adequate diagnostic tools to assess DR in TB patients reflects both the difficulty of culturing the organism as well as an incomplete understanding of what to be assaying for. At present our knowledge of DR-mutations is woefully incomplete. The fact that we can only identify 85% of the causative mutations for isoniazid resistance, one of the best-studied drugs for mechanism of action in Mtb, underscores the need for a massive effort to comprehensively identify the mutations associated with DR in TB. These mutations, in turn, will become the basis for new tests for resistance. A further concern with respect to drug resistant TB is that DR strains, traditionally thought to be less 'fit', i.e. less virulent than their drug susceptible (DS) progenitors, are showing extremely high levels of virulence, both in their ability to rapidly spread from person-to-person as well as causing rapid disease progression. Thus, there is an urgent need to identify those compensatory mutations that allow DR organisms to thrive as rampantly disseminating, highly successful pathogens. These compensatory mutations will appear as part of the DR catalog by virtue of their association with resistance phenotypes. Newly identified DR and virulence genes will not only provide the scientific community with a deeper understanding of the mechanisms by which Mtb resists treatment and evolves greater virulence, but will also point to new cellular targets for the development of novel anti-TB therapeutics.
To create the needed catalog of DR mutations we will work in partnership with leading TB clinical researchers who hold collections of phenotypically characterized Mtb strains from patients across the globe. Within this network of collaborators we will establish common standards for contributing and describing drug susceptibility testing (DST) data and patient metadata. Geographically disparate collections of strains will allow us to identify DR-causing mutations that are common and distinct among different Mtb genetic backgrounds (lineages).

First experience eating Ethiopian cusine – I tried Asmara Restaurant for the first time. I have never eaten Ethiopian food and was very pleased with the my order at Asmara's. The lentils were delicious, just the right amount of spices. The atmosphere is quiet and cozy. Perfect for a couple or large group. The servers were very pleasant. The only aspect that I didn't like is the bread. It reminded me of a pancake. Other than that, everthing was great.
One of our favorite restaurants – What more can I say other than I love this place. Tasty cuisine and spices you can discern. Fantastic service from the waitresses and the owner ALWAYS stops by each table for a quick and friendly hello. But again, it's the food that's the draw for me.
pushy waitresses, mediocre food – I've been here three times and each time the waitresses kept pushing our groups to order more food even though we didn't want or need any more. And each time we didn't the waitresses would get a pretty snotty attitude. I like taking people there because it's at least a different type of food, but next time I will definitely look for another Ethiopian restaurant.
I thought the food was ok and the price is reasonable, my main problem is that they are very pushy about ordering more food and trying to upsell drinks. I'll go to a used car lot if I want to talk to high pressure salespeople.
Good Food, Comfortable Atmosphere – Asmara restarurant at the corner of 51st and Telegraph is worth visiting. I am hesitant to write this review, because I don't want my find to become a hot-spot. I like the quiet, never overcrowded atmosphere of the main room. The main room (in the front door) is in strict contrast to the bright, white, loud bar area to the right of the main room.
Intimate and cozy, great food – This is a great date place. Unlike Blue Nile, it is not crowded and noisy on weekend nights. Rather it is intimate and cozy. The food is delicious. It is also sensuous to eat w/ your hands, plus the honey wine is a great compliment to any meal here. Sometimes the service can be a little slow, so it may not be the place to go if you are in a hurry.

Over 30 years of equine nutritional research, clinical trials and field testing have gone into every cup of Farrier's Formula®. While no single nutrient is the key to a healthy hoof, studies show that most horses with hoof problems respond to better overall nutrition. Farrier's Formula® provides lecithin, DL- methionine, ascorbic acid, copper, zinc, biotin, and other nutrients that allow the horse's liver and hoof corium to build and assemble a highly crosslinked hoof wall that is denser and more resistant to cracking or drying out. Farrier's Formula® works because it furnishes all the nutrients known to be deficient if there is a problem with hoof growth and or hoof quality.
Farrier's Formula® Double Strength in SmartPaks
Feed at the replenishment feeding level (6 oz / 170 gm for a 1000 lb. horse) for horses with hoof problems. After feeding for 6 to 8 months and desired results have been achieved, the adult replenishment feeding level may be reduced to the maintenance feeding level (3 oz / 85 gm for a 1000 lb. horse).

Thirteen awesome oldies.
It's often a challenge to build a shiny new truck where everything comes apart quick and easy. It can be a total migraine to build a 20-plus-year-old truck that's rusted into a ball. With that said, the following 13 rigs honor those folks who have battled rust and hard-to-find parts to keep the classics on the trail.
Play Toy
Classic ride: 1979 Toyota FJ40
Proud Owner/hometown: Al Miller/Camas, Washington
Juicy details: This excellent example of a classic FJ has a 3-inch lift in the back to level it out, Rancho RS 9000 shocks, an Auburn limited-slip in the rear axle, a header on the 2F engine, Chevy power steering, and a steering correction kit. Inside, there's a Pioneer six-disc remote CD player and an AM/FM cassette player with four Pioneer football-type speakers attached to the rollcage. Outside, the rig has a very well done, homemade brushguard, a Warn 9,000-pound winch, and some extra braces on the ends of the front bumper for a "little extra protection." The Toy rolls on 33x10.50 BFG A-Ts on American Racing 15x8 wheels.
Super cool: It has air conditioning so Al doesn't have to eat dust, sweat, or battle bugs on those summer trail adventures.
Formidable Fullsize
Classic ride: 1979 Ford F-250
Proud Owner/hometown: Nick Szczerba/Sutersville, Pennsylvania
Juicy details: The 351ci engine has been rebuilt and fitted with a performance camshaft and dual exhaust. The transmission is a four-speed manual. Up front there's a Dana 44 axle, and in the rear there's a fat Dana 60. Gearing is 4.10:1. A 4-inch suspension lift and a 3-inch body lift allow fitment of 35x12.50 BFG A-T tires on 16.5x9.75 Eagle 589 wheels. On the outside of the rig, there's a Ramsey 8,000-pound winch bolted to a custom front bumper, five KC Daylighters, and a Hi-Lift jack.
Super cool: Nick is only 17 years old, and did all the work on the truck himself. He says it's the biggest truck in the student parking lot at his high school.
Lone Ranger
Classic ride: 1985 Ford Ranger
Proud Owner/hometown: Joe Waskewicz/Seymour, Connecticut
Juicy details: This heavily modified rig sports a 302ci GT-40 crate engine, a built C4, a twin-sticked Dana 20, a Dana 44 front axle (with Moser axleshafts and a Detroit Locker), and a Ford 9-inch rear axle (with spool). The Ranger also boasts a custom five-link front suspension with 24-inch coils and Rancho RS 9000 shocks, and a rear 6-inch-lift leaf-spring suspension with 6-inch blocks, Teraflex Revolver shackles, and RS 9000s. On the outside there's a Superwinch 9,500-pound winch and homemade bumpers. The rig rolls on 39.5-inch Boggers mounted on 15x14 steel wheels.
Super cool: Hydraulic-steering assist ensures that Joe can point the big Boggers wherever he wants.
Bicentennial CJ
Classic ride: 1976 Jeep CJ-5
Proud owner/hometown: Jerry Hancock/Novato, California
Juicy details: Jerry did all the work on this rig himself, and he injected the 30-year-old rig (no pun intended) with lots of new tech. Gone is the carbureted 258ci I-6 engine, replaced with an SFI multiport 3.4L Chevy V-6. He also added power steering and a 4-inch suspension lift. Inside the rig, there's a pair of new bucket seats with Simpson 3-inch racing seatbelts, a custom steering wheel, and a custom padded rollcage and center console. Outside, the rig has four roof-mounted KC lights, an 8,000-pound Warn winch and 2-inch-diameter ridged steel nerf bars.
Super cool: The rear of the CJ features several securely mounted diamond-plated storage bins for safe, secure storage of trail necessities. There's also a pair of diamond-plated speaker boxes.
Roof-Free Ram
Classic ride: 1984 Dodge Ram 1500
Proud owner/hometown: Marcus Truskey/Beaufort, North Carolina
Juicy details: Marcus says that this rig is his "money pit" as well as "true love." It has a 318ci engine, a TorqueFlite 727, an NP208 transfer case, a Tru-Trac'd 9.25-inch rear axle, and a Dana 44 front axle. It rolls on 35x12.50 Mud King tires that fit courtesy of a 2-inch body lift and a Rough Country 4-inch suspension lift. Other goodies and upgrades include onboard air, two five-gallon fuel cans, Hella lights, three toolboxes, and Bushwacker flares.
Super cool: After removing the doors, Marcus took a Sawzall to the roof and parts of the cab. He had a custom rollcage built and then adapted a CJ-7 bikini top to fit.

He chose to convert to Christianity when he was sixteen and completed two years of secondary education, but had to leave college because his family were unable to cover the costs. When the Algerian War broke out in 1954, Rabhi was rejected by his father for having converted to Christianity and by his adoptive father following a dispute. He decided to settle in Paris.
In France, Rabhi, with no knowledge of agriculture, moved with his new family to the country; this was well before the French 'neo-rural' movement of the late 1960s. In 1963, after three years working as an agricultural worker, he became a goat farmer. Appalled by the impacts of industrialised agriculture on ecosystems he had witnessed in the Sahara and around him in France, he developed the practice of ecological agriculture.
"I am often called a philosopher," Rabhi told an interviewer, "but you must know that I came to ecology through farming." On his farm in the Cevennes of Ardèche, he has lived for 13 years without electricity, water or modern technology. Through this experiment he has discovered that "man has created a radical break between activities that enable them to feed themselves and essential principles of nature. The little plot of land that I cultivated in Ardèche widened my horizons and enabled me to connect with time and space all around the world."
Rabhi wondered whether his experiment was transmissible. In 1985, he set up an agro-ecology training centre; and in 1988 he also founded an International forum for the sharing of knowledge about applied to agricultural practices, CIEPAD. "I realized that the South had been trapped by modernity, that it was connected through chemical fertilizers and pesticides" he explained; "the South is especially affected by ecological disasters, by the disappearance of animal and vegetal biodiversity, by desertification." He has since launched oversees development programmes in Morocco, Palestine, Algeria, Tunisiea, Senegal, Togo, Benin, Mauritaniea, Poland and the Ukraine.
Rabhi's work had a big influence on the emerging anti-globaization movement. He is a member of the board of editors of the French monthly La Décroissance — "De-Growth."
Kokopelli works to protect biodiversity in the production and distribution of organically and biodynamically grown seeds and for the regeneration of the fertility of cultivated soils.
In 2009, Rabhi founded Terre et Humanisme (Colibris), an "International movement for earth and humanism." Since then, more than two million people have been involved in Colibris' place-based projects and encounters and more than 100 groups have been launched. These aim in different ways to create ecological and socially ways to organize daily life. A plethora of initiatives includes AMAPs (community supported agriculture schemes); apiaries, ecological building workshops, shared gardens and other educational activities.
(This film, as an example, is about the citizens of Rennes developing their own climate plan. It's not dissimilar to the Energy Decent Action Plans being pioneered by the Transition Towns movement.)
With presidential elections due in France next year, 2012, Rabhi has now launched a "campaign without a candidate" in which last weekend's meetings in Le Vigan were an early step. The idea is to demonstrate to French citizens that an alternative to politics-as-usual is possible. Describing the campaign as an "insurrection of the conscience", Rabhi explains that the campaign is not about reforming present society with its "banal consumption" and "pervasive fear." Rather, it is about accelerating the emergence of its replacement.
The Colibris campaign is based on a Charter for the Earth and Humanity. The Charter first outlines five existential challenges: "The Disaster of Chemical Agriculture," "Humanity has Failed Humanism," "Disconnection between Humans and Nature," "The Myth of Unlimited Growth," "The Powerless at the Mercy of Money." It then proposes six responses to these challenges: "Embody Utopia," "Happy Sobriety," "Femininity at the Heart of Change," "Agroecology as Indispenable Alternative," "Earth and Humanism are One," "Re-localization of the Economy," "Another Education."
This kind of language may strike some English readers as portentous; (This writer's clunky translation won't have helped.) But in Le Vigan, last weekend, the atmosphere was the opposite of sanctimonious. On the contrary: What's special about the social movement Rabhi is catalysing is that it's serious and determined — but also light.
Asked whether he believed in life after death, the non-candidate for President of France replied that "I'm more preoccupied with life before death... but in the long run, I am compost."

Read A Sample Chapter Day 1: Who Wants Life?Day Six: Everlasting TruthDay 118: What to Ask for
We live in a time when more and more people are seeking guidance on how to improve the spiritual content of their lives. The response to already published daily-lesson works which address this need has been overwhelming. This book -- based on two works of the Chofetz Chaim that have never been translated -- offers a program for daily study in timely topics that are basic to Jewish life.
The first part of Lessons in Truth is based on Sefer Sefas Tamim, and focuses on honesty in word and deed. In a world where unscrupulousness and untruths are commonplace, the Jew is fiercely challenged by the Torah's high standards of integrity. What can inspire him to reject the low morals of modern society and emerge with his integrity untainted?
Awareness of fundamentals of Jewish faith – such as the primacy of Torah, reward and retribution, the life of the World to Come and the Final Redemption through the coming of Mashiach -- the subjects of the second part of the book, based on the Chofetz Chaim's Sefer Shem Olam.
As an added feature, the book contains some twenty-five lessons based on letters and insights of the Chofetz Chaim.
Rabbi Shimon Finkelman enlivens these daily lessons with stories and comments, so that no page is ever dry. Each day's selection crackles with meaning and challenge. This is a book that should be read aloud to family, students and study groups. It should be the basis for discussion on how to bring its message into practice.
Not only is it a valuable and potentially very influential book, in Rabbi Finkelman's skilled hands these lessons and stories make very enjoyable reading. Produced in conjunction with The Chofetz Chaim Heritage Foundation, it will quickly become a modern-day classic.

Rapid Reaction: Ramsey leads Gunners
Three things we learned from Arsenal's 3-1 win against Fulham...
Crisis? What crisis?
There's always a danger in writing off a team after one weekend. It's equally churlish to declare a team "fine" a week later, but such is the helter-skelter nature of Arsenal that it's hard to resist.
Whatever happens between now and the end of the transfer window is anyone's guess, but the XI that Arsene Wenger did deploy at a rainy, difficult Craven Cottage was exemplary. Giroud's charmed form continued as Aaron Ramsey's shot/pass ricocheted kindly off the Frenchman's own leg -- he barely had a clue where the ball was, initially -- and into his path, allowing him to scoop it over advancing David Stockdale for an early Gunners lead.
The wet conditions made it tougher for goalkeepers as both sides shot at will (19 for Arsenal, 9 on target, compared with 16-7 for the home side), and, although Wojciech Szczesny stood tall -- his double save from Adel Taarabt and Damien Duff in the first half was superb -- Stockdale couldn't keep up.
To wit, Arsenal's second goal four minutes before halftime. Theo Walcott's angry long-range shot could only be parried by Stockdale into Lukas Podolski's path, prompting a smart left-footed finish through the crowd from the top of the box.
The visitors' scoring was completed by Podolski midway through the second half, a sharp, simple first-time shot from the left side of the box that seemed to squirm past a helpless Stockdale. The German forward's future has been scrutinized of late, given Giroud's progression and Wenger's very public courtship of a number of top-line strikers. Yet he thrived on the left side of Arsenal's 4-2-3-1/4-3-3, cutting infield and offering a meaningful outlet for the Gunners in attack.
All told, not much for Wenger to complain about -- for once. Although the obvious flaws and requirements remain for a wafer-thin Arsenal squad, it's clear he does have a decent foundation on which to add. Was that ever in doubt?
The wonderful Welshman
With many fans puzzled as to the "rest" prescribed for Jack Wilshere on the Arsenal subs' bench, it turned out the rainy conditions were perfect for the man who eventually fulfilled that role.
Ramsey was exemplary in the Gunners' midfield against Fulham, anchoring possession, displaying real intelligence in distribution (his heat map shows a balanced spread of the ball across the entire pitch) and generally controlling the overall flow of the game. With Santi Cazorla finding room in attacking areas and Tomas Rosicky playing further upfield, the young Welsh midfielder was more than capable of serving as the deep-lying playmaker.
The rain didn't prevent him from leading Arsenal in touches (94), pass attempts (85) and pass completions (73) -- just what Wenger's side needed against a team normally so combative in midfield.
By contrast, his opposite number -- Scott Parker, making his Fulham debut -- endured a difficult afternoon, completing more passes than anyone else but finding himself frequently overmatched by the Gunners' quick movement and distribution in midfield. His heat map showed his lack of ambition or forward thrust on the ball, often passing wide but not achieving much penetration into the attacking third.
Lone strikers make for long afternoons
Much has been written in the past about Dimitar Berbatov's more sedate style of play. His languid, sporadic brilliance is a known quantity, yet Martin Jol left the easy-jogging frontman in isolation for much of the game. The end result? Little production or menace from a man normally so deadly with the ball at his feet.
Berbatov's 25 touches were the lowest of all players who started the game, such was Fulham's difficulty in working the ball upfield cleanly. Much as with Swansea vs. Man United and Crystal Palace vs. Spurs on the Prem's opening weekend, only when Darren Bent was brought on to offer a second attacking option did the Cottagers suddenly become more dangerous: Berbatov's clever spin and low cross for Bent's tap-in goal underscored the frustration of what could have been.
Although a five-man midfield does offer much more balance and restraint against better teams -- Jol's 4-4-1-1 had Pajtim Kasami tamely linking up play as the CF, spending more time near the halfway line than the goal line -- it also neutralizes itself if the striker and wide midfielders (in this case, Taarabt on the left and Duff on the right) can't retain possession long enough to get support in the final third and break opposing defenses.
A quick glimpse at Fulham's heat map shows just how little any of them managed. The flanks were sparsely populated. The danger area around the top of the penalty box was practically uninhabited. It doesn't take a genius to realize you won't win many games if you can't get near goal.

The means for meeting the 6.0 semesters of residency requirement differ for full-time and part-time students.
Full-time students complete each semester of residency by earning 12 or more credits during a semester of 14 to 15 weeks (exclusive of examinations). One of the semesters of residency may be completed by earning a total of 5.0 or more credits each during summer sessions in two different calendar years at Rutgers School of Law–Newark, in classes that run for at least seven weeks. One-tenth (0.1) of a semester of residency is awarded for each law school credit earned in the summer session in such classes, up to a maximum of 0.5 semesters of residency per summer session. Thus, successful completion of six full-time, fall or spring semesters completes this requirement (1.0 x 6 = 6.0 semesters of residency), as does five full-time semesters and two summers of five or more credits ((1.0 x 5) + (0.5 x 2) = 6.0 semesters of residency), but not five full-time semesters plus one summer of four credits and one summer of six credits ((1.0 x 5) + 0.4 + 0.5 = 5.9 semesters of residency).
Part-time students meet their residency requirement as follows: 0.75 semesters of residency are completed during each fall or spring semester in which eight or more credits are earned as a part-time student. As for full-time students, part-time students earn one-tenth (0.1) of a semester of residency for each law school credit earned in the summer session, in classes that run for at least seven weeks, up to a maximum of 0.5 semesters of residency per summer session.
Students who shift between part-time and full time status will meet the requirement by applying one or the other of the above rules to each of their semesters of attendance, depending in their status in that semester.
