Three States Pushing ALEC Bill To Require Teaching Climate Change Denial In Schools
7:23 am in Uncategorized by Steve Horn
Cross-Posted from DeSmogBlog
The American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) - known by its critics as a "corporate bill mill" – has hit the ground running in 2013, pushing "models bills" mandating the teaching of climate change denial in public school systems.
January hasn't even ended, yet ALEC has already planted its "Environmental Literacy Improvement Act" - which mandates a "balanced" teaching of climate science in K-12 classrooms - in the state legislatures of Oklahoma, Colorado, and Arizona so far this year.
In the past five years since 2008, among the hottest years in U.S. history, ALEC has introduced its "Environmental Literacy Improvement Act" in 11 states, or over one-fifth of the statehouses nationwide. The bill has passed in four states, an undeniable form of "big government" this "free market" organization decries in its own literature.
ALEC's "model bills" are written by and for corporate lobbyists alongside conservative legislators at its annual meetings. ALEC raises much of its corporate funding from the fossil fuel industry, which in turn utilizes ALEC as a key - though far from the only - vehicle to ram through its legislative agenda through in the states.
A Frankenstein Co-Created with Heartland Institute
A DeSmogBlog investigation last year found that the Environmental Literacy Improvement Act's origins date back to 2000.
The Act's creation is directly connected to the ongoing efforts of another corporate-funded group, the Heartland Institute – of "Heartland Institute Exposed" fame – a group well plugged into the climate change denial machine.
ALEC's Natural Resources Task Force, now known as its Energy, Environment and Agriculture Task Force, adopted this model at a time when the Task Force was headed by Sandy Liddy Bourne. Bourne, who served in this capacity from 1999-2004, would eventually ascend to the role of Director of Legislation and Policy for ALEC in 2004.
Upon leaving ALEC in 2006, Bourne become Heartland's Vice President for Policy Strategy. Today she serves as Executive Director of the American Energy Freedom Center, an outfit she co-heads with Arthur G. Randol. Randol is a longtime lobbyist and PR flack for ExxonMobil, a corporation which endowed the climate change denial machine for years.
Heartland's website still lists Bourne as one of its "experts," stating that "Under her leadership, 20 percent of ALEC model bills were enacted by one state or more, up from 11 percent."
Importantly, Heartland is still a member of ALEC's Energy, Environment and Agriculture Task Force that originally passed the Environmental Literacy Improvement Act.
According to internal documents leaked to and published by DeSmogBlog in Feb. 2012, Heartland obtained funding for a "Global Warming Curriculum for K-12 Classrooms" project beginning in 2012. This curriculum aims to teach that there "is a major controversy over whether or not humans are changing the weather."
If this sounds similar to ALEC's model bill, it should, given the fact that the two outfits share funding from the same honey pot. In fact, Heartland actively promotes the ALEC model on its website.

FORUM PLANS WEEKLY DISCUS- SIONS The subjects for the weekly discussions of the Forum for the rest of December are: December 12�Mrs. Emily James Put- nam's "Views on Feminism". Reader, Miss Dimon. December 19�"Socialised Germany", by Frederick C. Howe, reviewed by Miss Bamlcle. Last Sunday, the Forum chose for its subject of discussion "The Peace Ship,". The meetings are held Sunday night at nine o'clock in the Non-Resident Room in Rockefeller. They are open to all gradu- ates and undergraduates who are Inter- ested in the informal discussion of impor- tant present-day movements. The officers elected by the Forum for this year are: Executive Committee, E. B. Daw. chairman; A. Cheyney. M. E. Bamlcle; Auxiliary Committee. E. Butler. O. A. Jones, B. Marquand The first suffrage address of the year was delivered by Mrs. Antoinette Funk, Friday night, In Taylor Hall. Mrs. Funk spoke of the advancement of woman suf- frage in the last few years, and urged j the necessity of breaking down the bar- rler of States rights. Her address was ! particularly Interesting in that it was j practical rather than theoretical. She i based her statements and arguments on her own personal experience, on facts ! which she had learned while working for suffrage with Congress and with various State legislatures. _____ Although she'dealt partly with legisla- tive questions which she herself apolo- gised for as being "dry and technical", she held the interest of her audience throughout the whole lecture. She in- terspersed her "dry and technical facts" with amusing accounts such as her en- counter with a certain Senator who told her that the women of New Jersey were "household pets" and did not want the vote, and descriptions of scenes In Chi- cago during the women's light for en- franchisement there two years ago. "I think," she said, "that far-seeing peo- ple see suffrage approaching very close, and through the State route". First, however, she said, "you must break down that awful barrier which is constitutional and political, which Is built up in almost every State against suffrage and against progress in general. You're not going to be able to get the State nearest your . heart into the suffrage column until you break this wall". As an example of the efficiency of State campaign she spoke of Illinois, and the success of the women there. In Chicago now, she said, 73 per cent of the women vote to 72 per cent of the men. She told of the great changes the women had made already in the two years since they have had the vote, in the improvement of the jails and sanitary conditions and the abolition of the dance halls. This change, she said, stands out as one of the best arguments for the enfranchise- ment of women. COLLEGE WOMEN AND SETTLEMENT WORK Hilda W. Smith to Speak Miss Hilda W. Smith, 1910, will speak at an open meeting of the College Settle- ment Chapter in the C. A. Library on Friday night. She will describe some phase of College women's relation to set- tlement work. Two years ago Miss Smith led one of the most profitable and well-attended Bible Mission Study Classes of recent years, In which social problems were studied. Since she graduated in 1910, she has done much practical social work and has studied two years at the School of Philanthropy. A pageant which she man- aged in a small town in New York State, brought the people together as a com- munity and gave some of them the first opportunity for good amusement. She has had charge of several clubs In New York and Is at present doing village work, awakening the people to their civic re- sponsibilities and organising clubs. This year Varsity won from LanSdowne, New York, the Alumna;, and Baltimore, and lost to Cermantown, Philadelphia, and All-Philadelphia. M. Branson, Var- sity captain, says: "The result of the All- Philadelphia game was a great disap- pointment for the hockey season has otherwise been successful and hopes were lfgh this year that Varsity might win against their Invincible opponents. Be- ginning with the fall of 1908 Varsity has played the All-Philadelphia team every year except 1911. Last year and two years before that the score was a tie. During the entire series of games All-Philadelphia has scored 35 goals and Hryn Mawr 19. "Although the game this year ended with the score 6-3. it was not from lack of good playing or good spirit. The best work which Varsity has done this season was done during the first half. Though Varsity slackened In the second half It made a splendid come-back in the end, and finished honorably if not victori- ously". Miss Branson says that the early part of the season was promising for the big game. "Varsity won the first game against Lansdowne. After the loss of the next two games, the Varsity committee bent all its energies toward preparations for the All-Philadelphia game. Special practices were started and Mr. Newhall, who played on the Oxford Varsity, Eng- land, saw the last practise and gave us some valuable advlco". "Eleven players received white notes, and seven subs received blue notes. The back field was composed of the same steady players who made Varsity last year, except that M. Bacon took the place of V. Litchfield, who was moved to the forward line. She. with L. Brown, P. Turle, and two Freshmen, J. Hearne and M. Ty- ler, made a fast and sure forward line. Of the subs, C. Fiske and A. Stiles distin- guished themselves In the All-Philadelphia game. Everyone who has been posted to play has shown splendid spirit in the games, practises, and training. The In- terest in hockey has been strengthened by the teas and luncheons given for the visiting teams, after which Varsity dis- cussed the points of the game and made suggestions for plays". The Varsity committee for this year was: M. Branson, F. Kellogg, M. Thomp- son, M. Bacon and Miss Applebee. Those who made B.M.'b as Varsity were L. Brown. O. Hearne, V. Litchfield, M. Tyler, P. Turle, H. Harris, M. Branson, M. Bacon, M. Thompson, J. Pauling, A. Werner. Those who made B.M.'s as first subs were F. Kellogg, M. Willanl. A. Stiles, M. Peacock, M. Russell. C. Flske. COLLEGES IN KHAKI At a recent meeting the Harvard Stu- dent Council expressed itself in favor of military preparedness and of military training for all members of the Univer- sity. Four hundred students have al- ready volunteered. The question Is such a burning one throughout the country that it seems probable that all men's col- leges, who have not already done so, will soon declare themselves on one side or the other. Cornell has had required mili- tary training for several years and it Is practically assured that Dartmouth is about to institute It. The University of Michigan senate recommended military training this fall and the University re- gents will consider the matter In January Dr. Savage Explains Baker Courses at Radcliffe and Harvard Most Hryn Mawr students think of the � courses in drama at Harvard and Rad- cliffe as something remotely wonderful or else do not think of them at all, but Dr. Savage, who has taught at Itadcliffe and has worked with Professor Baker at Har- vard, really knows. In the following arti- cle, written for "The News", Dr. Savage shows the remarkable scope of the work and emphasizes the fact that its stand- ards are not purely academic, but ap- proach closely those of the professional stage. Dr. Savage writes: "More than any other one agency. Pro- fessor Baker's English 47 and English 47a at Harvard and Radcliffe have helped to break down the supposed barrier be- tween the professional stage and aca- demic work. Reform of the American drama Is not their purpose; Professor Baker would be the last person to urge that such a thing were either possible or 1 desirable. Their object Is to provide training in play writing for those under- graduates and graduate students who show sufficient aptitude.

January 5, 2010 – For Immediate Release
ELKHART, Indiana – Building on the new workflow principles and operational paradigms offered with its HiQnet System Architect™ 2.0, Harman Professional recently made its new System Architect 2.1 available to HiQnet™ users worldwide. The upgrade, which was made live on Thursday, December 17th, allows System Architect to automate many of the more time consuming system design tasks based on the application's greater, embedded understanding of how a user constructs a system.
System Architect 2.1 has been upgraded to allow greater compatibility between HiQnet devices from Harman Professional's legendary brands, including Crown, JBL, dbx, AKG and BSS Audio.
New with version 2.1 is the support of the new Crown PIP-USP4/CN Card and control of the AKG DMS 700 digital wireless system via the HUB 4000 Q. Frequency coordination of DMS 700 wireless systems can be performed with 1 Click Setup from AKG's plugin. '1-Click Setup' calculates discrete, inter-modulation-free frequencies for the entire wireless system on the fly with just a single click.
The upgrade means that System Architect takes multiple like-devices within rack and arrays and automatically groups these into master panels. These are then made accessible from icons associated with the relevant racks or arrays directly in the Venue. Additionally, user-defined panels can also be assigned to racks, arrays and areas, putting access to control exactly where it makes sense and where it should be.
"With this new upgrade to System Architect, Harman Professional offers its customers the ability to manage all the products within a HiQnet system with remarkable efficiency,""said Adam Holladay, Market Manager, System Development and Integration Group. "With the operational and performance optimizations that come with the new upgrade, each HiQnet product can effectively work towards providing a more unified system, together reaching a greater potential than alone and with minimal work from the engineer."
Additional features added to System Architect 2.1 include the ability to readdress devices directly in the venue, both online and offline; the ability to reorder devices in racks and arrays by address and a new region indicator control for use in advanced Custom Panel design. The user interface was upgraded to include a file load progress bar, and also provides enhancements to the intelligent Network Troubleshooter to assist with solving network complications.
"System Architect 2.1 continues our goal of offering users the greatest functionality with the least amount of labor," continued Holladay. "With System Architect 'generation 2', Harman Professional is effectively providing engineers with a helping hand to make the even the most complex audio designs as simple to configure as possible."
Crown is a unit of Harman International Industries, Incorporated (www.harman.com). Harman International designs, manufactures and markets a wide range of audio and infotainment products for the automotive, consumer and professional markets, and maintains a strong presence in the Americas, Europe and Asia, employing more than 11,000 people worldwide. The Harman International family of brands includes AKG®, Audioaccess®, Becker®, BSS®, Crown®, dbx®, DigiTech®, Harman Kardon®, Infinity®, JBL®, Lexicon®, Mark Levinson®, Revel®, QNX®, Soundcraft® and Studer®. Harman International's stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "NYSE: HAR."
Harman HiQnet™ is the world's first connectivity and control protocol that integrates all product categories in the signal chain for professional audio systems of all types, size, and applications. Harman HiQnet no longer requires the user to manage multiple disparate operating systems or be responsible for programming individual signal processors, speaker controllers, wireless microphone systems, and mixing consoles. HiQnet was developed by engineers from across the Harman Pro Group and is coordinated by the System Development and Integration Group (SDIG), a team of dedicated systems specialists based in Salt Lake City, Utah.

By Myra Starkey
Our Christmas holiday was spent at my sister's house in Livingston. She bought the house on Lake Livingston about a year ago and has spent the last few months remodeling.
Susie is the second child in birth order in my family. I am the oldest and Cindy the youngest.
That would make Susie the middle child, and although people attribute certain behaviors to "middle child syndrome," I don't try to analyze or categorize my sister. She is single, employed as a drug representative for a large drug company and has two dogs that she treats like children.
Susie loves dogs and insists that any of our family gatherings include all our pets, which this year totaled seven and felt like 14.
Her house is a two-story ranch-style set on the edge of the lake. Although the house has four bedrooms, there were too many relatives, so most of the Starkey clan stayed at the area La Quinta.
One representative from our family had to stay at the house and sleep on the couch in order to take care of the dogs.
I drove to Livingston with three dogs in the back seat of the pick-up. Taylor was riding with our oldest son, Miles, in his car, and I volunteered for dog duty.
I had Lola and Hazel, our two black standard poodles and their dog nephew, Quimby, who is our daughter Hannah's dog.
Quimby is a Rhodesian Ridgeback. He is quite large and likes the back seat to himself. That being the case, there was quite a bit of poodle seat jumping and deep throated growling during the trip.
When I arrived at the LaQuinta late on Sunday, I cracked the windows of the truck so the dogs could have fresh air and went in to get our room keys. At this point, all three dogs managed to stick their noses out of the windows and start barking which might not have been noticed by the desk clerk if the sliding front doors of the lobby had not been opening and shutting due to small children playing in the motel lobby. Small children seem attracted to automatic doors.
Although the motel is pet friendly, the clerk decided this was a bit much and mentioned it in a polite way, but I assured her it would only be adults occupying the rooms because the dogs were going to my sister's house.
She smiled and then looked back at a display screen of hallways in the motel as if to say, "sure. I'll be watching."
I was eager to get to my destination and was trying to follow the route guidance on my car computer when my phone started ringing. By this time I was deep in east Texas woods leaving the lights of Livingston behind.
Susie asked me to stop for baking powder since she was making cornbread to go with our turkey chili.
I headed to Wal-Mart for baking powder. The parking lot was packed, forcing all newly arriving shoppers to park on the grass.
I was determined to park on pavement and continued to circle like a buzzard until I finally spied a family toting two carts headed for a car near me, stalked them and bagged their spot.
I joined the hordes of shoppers as I went in search of the baking products. My sisters continued to call, adding a few more items until at last my arms were full, and I gave in and went in search of a basket.
I finally got through the checkout line, exited the store and found my vehicle by clicking the panic button. This sent all three dogs into a barking frenzy.
Susie's house is in a small neighborhood off the main highway. The area is sparsely populated, and the pine trees tower on each side of the narrow road, effectively blocking out lights from houses or the night sky. My onboard guidance system lady continued to tell me there was no guidance available in this region, and I was on my own.
Scenes from the movie "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" kept popping into my head, and I made sure my truck doors were securely locked.
After 30 minutes and at least three phone calls to Susie, I found her house. The driveway was full of cars, and the house lit up with lights, laughter and barking.
Everyone had already arrived and had found their spots in the den watching football or stirring pots on the stove in the kitchen.
The dogs ran around each other sniffing, barking, growling and then settled in like they were cousins at an overnight party.
Susie had made turkey chili and cornbread for our evening meal. The chili was really spicy, and I had to refill my sweet tea several times.
Perhaps having my family, sisters, nieces, dogs, husband and dad all together in one place made it feel like Christmas.
Despite the fact that I enjoyed the family present, there remained a melancholy part of me throughout the weekend because of the absence of my mom.
On Christmas morning, we left the motel and returned to Susie's house. It had been transformed into party central. The garland outside had been laced with crepe paper and a happy birthday sign.
Inside the house, my sisters and nieces wore party hats and called out, "Happy Birthday" as I arrived, throwing balloons in the air.
My birthday is Christmas Day. I was touched that they had gone to so much trouble and once again felt tears filling my eyes.
We sat down at the table and had cranberry scones and banana bread prepared earlier that morning. Susie and Cindy stayed busy in the kitchen preparing cornbread stuffing, while I stuffed the turkey and rubbed it down with Cajun spices. I popped it in the oven at 9 that morning, and by 10, the wind had begun to howl, the sky darkened and the trees were swaying wildly.
Our kids Googled the weather websites, looking for tornado warnings.
The water on the lake was forming into bay size whitecaps. We heard a clap of thunder and lost power. The guys in front of the television and the women in the kitchen all groaned.
It was apparent that the electricity would not soon return, and, even if it had, it would take at least several hours to bake the turkey.
We all began to pack up for our return trips home.
I know Susie was disappointed since she had gone to so much trouble. Spencer sent a phone text from the Chevron station titled, "Christmas lunch" and a picture of Hot Pockets and Gardetto's. I was horrified.
This will be a holiday that we will remember: the first Christmas without mom, the first family gathering at Susie's lake house and the first Frito/cheese dip Christmas dinner, but all the same, it was Christmas with family, and that makes it special.
Regardless of the calories we have all consumed, it is now time to slim down in the new year.
I am including a delicious salad and several dressing recipes to motivate you to eat lighter.
Throw away those Fritos, cheese dip and candy bars.

The important bilateral relationship between Japan and the United States that exists today is very much in evidence at U.S. Fleet Activities Sasebo, where ships of the Japan Maritime Self Defense Force and the United States Seventh Fleet share this excellent port.
CFAS is located on Kyushu island, about 45 miles (1.5 hour drive) from the prefecture's capital of Nagasaki and 78 miles (2 hour drive) from Fukuoka, largest city on the island. Sasebo is about 600 miles by air from Tokyo. The installation is composed of 12 separate areas on 1,285 acres bordering or near Sasebo Harbor. CFAS includes a main base area, three off-base housing areas, three fuel facilities, two ordnance facilities and a Landing Craft Air Cushion laydown site. For over 120 years two great navies, first the former Imperial Navy and now the U.S. Navy, have called Sasebo home. The city and nearby area are generally rural in comparison to other fleet concentration areas and features stunning natural beauty, including nearby 99 Islands National Park.
CFAS is the home of the Navy's only forward-deployed Amphibious Ready Group, anchored by USS Bonhomme Richard (LHD 6). Supporting Bonhomme Richard, our seven other forward-deployed ships and all U.S. Seventh Fleet ships is the mission of this installation. The base is strategically important in carrying out our defense treaty with Japan in ensuring peace and stability throughout the region. Proud of how we perform, CFAS is Commander Naval Region Japan's installation of the year in 2005, 2007 and 2009.
Our Mission
Enable forward deployed U.S. and Allied Forces while providing superior support to their families.
Our Vision Statement
Fleet Activities Sasebo defines excellence in Shore Installation management through proactive leadership and seamless command integration, and is recognized as the overseas duty station of choice.

Accepting Being Single
I'm hoping this to be a positive topic. It occurs to me lately that we've had to accept some hard things, and hopefully we have learned or are learning to accept them with grace and dignity. That is a hard mountain to climb. Two years ago I could not conceive that I might never marry again. It just seemed to be the state of living in which my heart was happiest. Now, however, I find that while I am alone, I am not lonely. While I long for a relationship with a good man, if that does not happen I am sure that I will be fine. In fact, I am fine. That is not to say that I would not like a special companion to enjoy or keep company with or to marry. I'm saying that I think I am learning that it will be okay to be single - and I am wondering if any of you are feeling that as well.

Every situation is different and will be handled individually. If classes are cancelled and Ohio State Lima is closed, a Buckeye Alert will be sent out to all students, faculty and staff who have registered their cell phone numbers in the Buckeye Alert system. If you have not registered your cell phone number, you should do so here.
If a Level 1 snow emergency is declared, Ohio State Lima will make every effort to remain open. However, when conditions reach Level 1, students should pay close attention to area radio and TV announcements for updates. The broadcast media will be contacted as soon as possible when all classes are delayed or cancelled or the campus is closed. The best and most immediate way to be alerted to cancellations and delays is to register for the Buckeye Alert system.
When classes are cancelled, administrative offices sometimes remain open. When the campus is closed, all operations are shut down. Individual class cancellations will NOT be reported to the media or through Buckeye Alert. ONLY when ALL classes are cancelled or delayed will Buckeye Alert be used and the media be asked to make announcements regarding the status of Ohio State Lima operations.
Individual class cancellations can be found at the top of this web page: http://lima.osu.edu/cancellations. Students should also check their Carmen accounts for individual class cancellation information.
Because Ohio State Lima is a commuter campus and does not utilize public mass transportation, the campus does not close nearly as frequently as area school systems. Closings/cancellations are rare.
Ohio State Lima serves a broad geographic area that often has diverse weather conditions. Commuters may experience conditions that make travel difficult. In such cases students are asked to use their discretion regarding travel. If Ohio State Lima has not issued an official cancellation or delay, students are expected to exercise their mature judgment in determining whether to attend classes or activities sanctioned by the University. Students are accountable for any material missed during an absence without an official delay or announced cancellation. Faculty members are encouraged to provide absent students the opportunity to make up missed work on their own. In all cases, students are expected to take the initiative to make up work missed due to non-attendance.
If weather forces a delay, classes will generally resume at noon. Activities or classes scheduled to begin on or after the delayed time will be conducted in a normal manner with students held responsible for any material presented. For example, if the university delays until noon, any class that begins at noon or after will begin at its normal time.

Jak - In ReviewThe door creaked open, and his head lifted from the papers on the table, green eyebrows arching at the sapphire-haired young woman on the threshold."Can can I come in?" Her voice was quiet, weak. He loved it and hated it in equal measure. It had been a while, but he still remembered all too well the sting lurking under that voice, what it had done to his heart and his head in a few short words. Her voice hurt more than any of the experiments ever had.He nodded anyway, gesturing to the empty chair across the table, and then went back to the papers he had been given to review before they were passed off to the Council. It was strange, reading about what they had done to him. Jarring, disturbing, and eerily distant. This young man in the photos and described in the reports was so different from who he was now, so much more alive, that is wasn't difficult to look at it as though it were an entirely different person he was
Jak Characters In Character"How To Keep Your Characters 'In Character'."For all new authors who need help with keeping the characters of the Jak and Daxter universe 'in character', just follow these simple guidelines! Take it from an author who has been writing Jak and Daxter fanfiction for four years, and has hundreds of fans.Jak/Mar/Jak Mar (Post-Prison): Make him every single jerk you've ever known. Go completely over-board on contempt and angst. As long as you remember that, no matter how hot he is, he is a bastard, you'll do just fine. And about his name? Whichever name sounds right to you, go ahead and use it. In terms of romance, the two main pairings for Jak are Keira and Ashelin, Yaoi lovers seem to like Jak paired up with Torn or Daxter. Pick your favorite pairing, and defend it by the skin of your teeth. (Jak/Keira 4ever!!!!)Daxter: Dax-To-The-Max can be easier than you might think. As long as you stick in at least five one-liners per a chapter (depending on the size of the chapter), no one will ev

Is aluminum stronger than steel?
Nope, to check this answer, do an experiment: hammer a piece of aluminum foil. You will see that it creases easily wheres steel cannot be broken down easily.
However, aluminum is also more light-weight than steel. Aluminum is cheaper to manufacture, easier to bend as needed into a variety of shapes, can be shipped more easily (less weight=less cost), and makes many items lighter in weight (cars, airplanes, etc.)
The one big drawback is that cars used to have steel bumpers. Since most are now steel or plastic, and bumpers are often the first to make contact with another car or object, the bumper is less sturdy now than when it was steel.

So let us get this straight for the record 11 years after the fact of the most abhorrent crime perpetrated in this century so far.....Two "hijacked" planes hit the WTC Nth and Sth towers piercing the steel construction, exploded inside, left gaping holes in the steel buildings in the shape of the wings of the planes and made the buildings pancake into their own footprint after 2 hours maximum after the planes hit the buildings.

Chemical Vapor Deposition of GaAs
Model ID: 945
Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) allows a thin film to be grown on a substrate through molecules and molecular fragments adsorbing and reacting on a surface. This example illustrates the modeling of such a CVD reactor where triethyl-gallium first decomposes, and the reaction products along with arsine (AsH3) adsorb and react on a substrate to form GaAs layers.
The CVD system is modeled using momentum, energy, and mass balances including a detailed description of the gas phase and adsorption kinetics. Firstly, a reduced reaction scheme is compared to the full scheme in the COMSOL Reaction Engineering Lab. In this tool, it is easy to study different models by effortlessly activating and deactivating reactions.

Mentor Graphics Veloce Emulation Platform Adopted by STMicroelectronics to Accelerate Time-To-Market for its New Generation Set-Top-Box Chip Sets
WILSONVILLE, Ore., April 15, 2010 - Mentor Graphics Corp. (NASDAQ: MENT), a leader in high-performance system verification solutions, today announced that STMicroelectronics' Home Entertainment and Display group (HED), a leader in the provision of digital consumer applications, has adopted the Veloce® platform for the system-level validation of its next-generation of digital Systems-on-Chip (SoC) for High-Definition (HD) Set-Top-Box (STB) applications.
STMicroelectronics (ST) chose the Veloce platform due to its high performance, state-of-the-art Testbench XPress (TBX) transaction-based environment, and extensive portfolio of iSolve™ vertical market solutions for the validation of digital standards associated with HDTV and STB.
"Meeting time-to-market goals for our digital consumer products requires advanced solutions that ensure the quality and integrity of our next-generation SoCs," said Thierry Bauchon, R&D Director, Home Entertainment & Displays, STMicroelectronics. "iSolve solutions have helped us anticipate and perform significant advances in the validation of our digital set-top-box chips with its associated software, bringing forward considerably more of the system-level validation of our designs during the pre-silicon phase. In particular, during the software validation process, we could boot the full system using a real Ethernet connection, and decode video frames that we then transmitted over HDMI and analyzed to ensure compliance with the standard, allowing us to better meet our goals and achieve robust system validation."
The Veloce platform is the industry's fastest dual-mode accelerator/emulator available, providing MHz performance for both transaction-based verification and traditional in-circuit emulation (ICE). With an extensive portfolio of vertical market solutions, the Veloce platform is the platform of choice for multimedia, networking, wireless, and embedded systems applications.
"Mentor has demonstrated for several years the leadership we have attained in the accelerated verification of multimedia-based applications with our Veloce platform and iSolve solutions," said Eric Selosse, Mentor Emulation Division vice president and general manager. "Additionally, we have gained the premier position in delivering high-speed, transaction-based methodologies to a wide user base with our flagship product TBX. It is especially rewarding to see ST's successful use of our advanced technologies in both of these areas, and we look forward to supporting ST on future projects with Veloce."

Beach reads for your summer vacation

The women of KIRO Radio and MyNorthwest.com have offered up their recommendations to entertain you through the summer heat.

Dori Monson Show Social Media Captain Jillian Raftery recommends "A Dirty Job" by Christopher Moore
Jillian writes ... I'm not usually in to trendy beach reads ... but this one came out a few years ago and it's offbeat, fun, hilarious, and really interesting. It's the kind of read that Seattleites who are hipsters but don't want to admit it will love. And people who love showers of cultural references that make you go 'A-HA!' will really enjoy it.

Keeping It Peel
For Keeping It Peel Day, in honour of the Word spread by the Rev. John, thanks to the unique way the BBC is funded (ta, the British!), we present a special mix. Every second of every last track has been lovingly, tenderly, gorgeously hand-picked from the archive of sessions performed for Peel's programmes, spanning [counts] thirty-four years of broadcasting excellence? Bloody hell, even if we do say so ourselves. Our dedicated team of expert music-listening technicians has curated this unique blend especially for your aural delight and, possibly, oral ensquealment. (Side effects may vary. By reading this, you waive all statutory rights.) And because we have total faith in the quality of our product, we believe in being completely transparent with you, our trusted client, about the ingredients that have gone into this unique, one-off, unique, special and unique one-time unique podcast, including the date each was recorded:
(0:00) Ivor Cutler, "Life in a Scotch Sitting Room, Volume II, Episode 10" (15/7/1985)
(0:35) The Delgados, "Last Rose of Summer" (16/10/2002)
(3:25) Dawn of the Replicants, "Windy Miller" (28/4/1998)
(6:01) David Bowie, "Moonage Daydream" (23/5/1972)
(10:52) Supergrass, "Pumping on Your Stereo" (23/7/1999)
(14:02) Dick Dale, "Surf Trip" (28/8/2002)
(16:47) Bhundu Boys, "Ndoita Sei" (17/1/1987)
(21:27) Dexys Midnight Runners, "Tell Me When My Light Turns Green" (26/2/1980)
(24:38) The Fall, "He Pep!" (7/12/1995)
(28:44) Public Image Ltd., "Poptones" (10/12/1979)
(33:12) The Auteurs, "Buddha" (20/2/1996)
(37:29) Eric Bogosian, "The Coming Depression" (10/8/1983)
(39:17) Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band, "Give Booze A Chance" (5/5/1968)
(41:51) Super Furry Animals, "Fragile Happiness" (12/7/2001)
(44:10) Boards of Canada, "Olson (Version 3)" (16/6/1998)
(46:32) Half Man Half Biscuit, "Song for the Siren" / "Vatican Broadside" (3/9/2002)
(49:36) Young Marble Giants, "N.I.T.A." (18/8/1980)
The mix is 53 minutes long, and will take up no more than 49 of your hard-earned megabytes should, as we hope, you choose to load it down (or "download" it) to your digital datum storage unit. Sound quality varies because of the nature of these things and because what do we look like, some kind of professional Audacity users or something, geddouttahere.
Listen. Enjoy. Treasure. And sing along! The singer out of Slipknot went to Rome to see the Pope, everybody!, the singer out of Slipknot...

John the Baptist knows the score
Something new from me at The Classical. It's a companion to this. Both were basically inspired by the fact that the imminent departure of my favourite player from Arsenal doesn't overly bother me. This is a sign of either my growing maturity, my conquering of optimism, or the faint possibility that [BENDTNER JOKE].

Sport good, says Partridge
So what had happened to me? How had I gone from the cossetted glamour of Our Price radio to the snarling, balls-out toughness of sports reporting? Well, I'd always been a keen sports fan. It seemed to me that the world of sport – with its reliance on stats, facts, trivia and rules – provided modern man with certainty and structure. Just as a well-fitting jockstrap cups the cock and balls of a sportsman, so sport cradled me. You know where you are with sport. It's good.Alan Partridge there, from his second volume of autobiography, I, Partridge: We Need to Talk About Alan.
And it's all so logical. Watch a play by Shakespeare or go to a modern art gallery, and no one has the faintest idea what the hell is going on.
Take Shakespeare. Not a play goes by without one character whispering something about another character that is clearly audible to that character. By virtue of the fact it has to be loud enough for the audience to hear it, it's inconceivable that it can't also be heard by the character in question. It's such an established technique in Shakespeare's canon people just think no one will notice. Well I've got news for you – this guy did.
Sport, on the other hand, is straightforward. In badminton, if you win a rally, you get one point. In volleyball, if you win a rally, you get one point. In tennis, if you win a rally, you get 15 points for the first or second rallies you've won in that game, or 10 for the third, with an indeterminate amount assigned to the fourth rally other than the knowledge that the game is won, providing one player is two 10-point (or 15-point) segments clear of his opponent. It's clear and simple.
For other views on what sport is and what you get out of it, you should read this by Richard Whittall and this by Terry Duffelen. You could even read this by me. If you want. You don't have to, like. Just, it's there, is all I'm saying.

Benalmádena is a medium sized town with thirty thousand inhabitants on the Costa Del Sol. Only 19 kilometers from Malaga Airport, Benalmádena is easy to reach by road, train or bus, and has grown rapidly over the last twenty years. Great for a sunny Mediterranean weekend, Benalmádena is very popular with British tourists. In the hot summer months, Benalmádena hotels get very busy and the population just about triples to 100,000 - so it is a good idea to make your reservations early with EasyToBook.com. The town is split into three main areas, and hotels in Benalmádena are located mainly in the town's commercial and coastal areas.
Discount hotels Benalmádena do a roaring trade in the summer, and for the young people who go there for its famed night life, Benalmádena cheap hotels are soon fully booked. There is plenty to do in Benalmádena for those who don't want to lie on the beach all day - there is Tivoli World Theme Park and the popular Jardin de Las Aguilas, garden of the eagles – or visit Selwo Marina, ride in the cable car and see the breathtaking views that make up the Costa Del Sol. Along the Marina Promenade you will see displays of artists' mosaics or you can go and take a look at Santa Domingo, a twelfth century church located in the heart of Benalmádena. Visit Castillo De Colomares, a castle built in remembrance of Christopher Columbus - or visit Benalmádena Exhibition Center in the coastal area of the town. If you are hungry and thirsty at the end of a long day, then go native at the Merendero Virgen Del Mar located at the Playa Los Maites.

Home > Services > Cancer Care > Successful Outcomes > Clinical Trials
Cone Health Cancer Center has been offering nationally accredited clinical trials since its beginnings. Assisting the medical community in finding breakthroughs in treatment options is a focus at Cone Health.
Taking part in a clinical trial can be a difficult decision to make. It's important to understand all of the options available before making that decision. The choice to participate is a joint decision between you, those close to you and your medical team. It's important to realize that a clinical trial has benefits and possible drawbacks as well.
Clinical trials are research studies that involve people. These studies test new ways to prevent, detect, diagnose or treat diseases. People who take part in cancer clinical trials help researchers learn more about cancer and develop improved treatments. The treatments that patients receive today are based on the results of past clinical trials.
Our clinical trials are sponsored by the National Cancer Institute (NCI), as well as private industry. With an average of 40 trials open at any one time, our patients may enroll in national trials in the Greensboro area rather than traveling to cancer centers in other parts of the state or the country.
All clinical trials are reviewed by the sponsors before Cone Health accepts the trial to ensure the highest standards. There are two additional levels of review which includes review by the Cancer Center physicians and an Institutional Review Board (IRB) – either an internal or external IRB review. Our focus is to ensure each trial is ethical and safe to perform. All trial protocols must receive IRB approval before patient enrollment.
During the clinical trial, the regular medical team and a member of the Cone Health Cancer Center research team assists the patient. A research nurse is assigned to each patient to guide them through the clinical trial. This expert monitors the progress of the patient during their enrollment and even continues to monitor the patient after the trial ends.
For additional information, please call (336) 832-0821.
There are many additional resources for you to learn more about clinical trials at the Cancer Center.
For information specific to trials conducted at the Cone Health Cancer Center, please contact our Oncology Clinical Trials Department at (336) 832-0821 or speak directly with your Cone Health Oncologist.
The following websites also offer valuable information about the benefits of clinical trials:
