Long Time Favorite
I've used this product exclusively since it was called Goldleaf & Hydrangea. I've been very selective about any of the colognes I could use & have given away many others that I've tried & been unable to tolerate. Needless to say Goldleaf has been my absolute favorite scent for many years. I was completely out of the cologne because I'm unable to find a reliable supply locally, so I'll continue to buy from the website. I'll also be trying some of the new lines that have been developed over the last several years. Thanks for continuing such a great line of products!!
Was this review helpful? Yes No
nice fragrance
Love the scent, light but odd that I've never received a positive or negative comment on it from others - as compared to other fragrances I've used where I did receive positive comments. Makes me wonder if anyone notices? I use almost daily for work and I enjoy it so what the heck!
Awesome Fragrance
I absolutely love the Goldleaf Parfum. I had read reviews about how some said they felt so good when they wear it and it is so true. It is a little strong when you first apply, but after the dry down, it is a soft, beautiful fragrance that I cannot go without. Love, love, love it!
Beautiful, wonderfully feminine fragrance!!
Love, love this fragrance. Rich, floral which is wonderfully long-lasting. Every time I wear it I get compliments! Truly beautiful fragrance.
Wonderful Aroma
I received a bottle of Goldleaf perfume for Christmas and I was hooked with the first spray! It's light with a combination of spices and floral scents, which I love. The fragrance is long-lasting and I always get compliments on how good I smell. Two thumbs up all the way!

Baseball City, USA
By Samantha Carr
The new book "Silver Seasons and a New Frontier: The Story of the Rochester Red Wings" set out to show that Rochester, N.Y., has the deepest, longest and richest baseball tradition of any minor league city.
Since 22 Hall of Famers have a connection to Rochester, the book makes a pretty good case.
Authors Jim Mandelaro and Scott Pitoniak were in Cooperstown Friday for an Authors' Series event at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum and participated in a book signing following their talk. Mandelaro has covered the Red Wings for the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle since 1991, and Pitoniak is the author of 10 books.
"We've known each other for a quarter of a century, and what keeps our friendship going is our love for baseball," said Pitoniak.
The authors set out to compile a definitive history of the Red Wings, retrace the careers of the players and managers who called Rochester home. Rochester has been named "Baseball City, USA" by Baseball America magazine. Among the many great ballplayers who have been a part of the Red Wings are Hall of Famers Stan Musial, Cal Ripken Jr., Jim Palmer, Eddie Murray, George Sisler, Billy Southworth, Jocko Conlan, Bob Gibson, Earl Weaver and Frank Robinson.
Each has a different connection with Rochester. Sisler came down to Rochester to play after his career in the big leagues. It was the only time the Hall of Famer spent time in the minors and was also the only team he was on which won a pennant. Hall of Fame umpire Jocko Conlan took the field as a player in Rochester, and Cal Ripken Jr. first came to Rochester as a boy in 1969 because his father managed the Red Wings for two seasons.
Cal and Billy Ripken would move to Rochester from their permanent home in Maryland for the summer and play ball in a lot near their rented home.
"The year Cal was inducted (into the Hall of Fame, 2007), I tracked down a few people who were neighbors during that time and they said the Ripken boys always played in their perfect full Oriole uniforms," Pitoniak said.
Cal Ripken Jr. returned to the Red Wings as a player, earning International League Rookie of the Year honors and placing second in MVP voting in 1981. He also took part in the longest game in the history of professional baseball that season – a 33-inning affair against the Pawtucket Red Sox.
"How fitting that the man who symbolizes the Iron Man, Ripken played in all 114 Red Wings games (he was eligible for) that season and also played 33 innings in one game – of all the people who could have played in that game," said Mandelaro.
Samantha Carr is the manager of web and digital media at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.

It is fascinating to me to see the step-by-step evolutionary path that some of our members take from their day jobs or careers to becoming pizza professionals. It is though the path is preordained and inexorable and once set in motion cannot be stopped no matter how much effort is put into resisting it, much like a moth being drawn to the flame. Query: Who's next? Peter

Silk Cherry Blossom Scarf
Item #22354
Price: $55.00
Availability: Out of stock. This item is no longer available for purchase.
A Smithsonian Institution Exclusive |
- Description
- Reviews
A nod to the centuries-old tradition of cherry blossom viewing, or hanami, the ethereal motif of this soft, feminine Silk Cherry Blossom Scarf lets you enjoy their budding elegance in any season. 100% silk. Imported. 58"l. x 14"w.
Museum Provenance
Viewing cherry blossoms in early spring was deemed such a transcendently beautiful experience, the Japanese gave it a name, hanami. Washington, D.C. and the Smithsonian began the celebration of cherry blossoms in the early 1900s when the trees that now line the nearby Tidal Basin were given to the United States by Japan. The breathtaking collection on these pages celebrates these enduring symbols of renewal while evoking the motifs of many print, painted and ceramic artworks in our Freer Gallery of Art.
Every Smithsonian purchase will arrive with a museum provenance card explaining how it is adapted from or inspired by an object or objects in our collection.

The Burden of History
Courtesy 2012 Barnes Foundation
Albert Barnes began collecting art in 1912 and collaborated with Paul Philippe Cret to design a limestone Beaux-Arts structure to house his collection.

Suppose you were a partner of a respected New York architecture firm with an enviable résumé of projects to your credit, including the American Museum of Folk Art in New York City and the Phoenix Art Museum expansion. Suppose you heard from a potential client with a $150 million budget and aspirations to build a museum of international repute to house perhaps the finest collection of Post-Impressionist paintings in the world, including 181 Renoirs, 69 Cézannes, 59 Matisses, and 46 Picassos, the collection's value estimated at $15 billion but priceless in its collective majesty. Suppose that, with a handful of other esteemed firms, you made the short list for the project, to be built along the Benjamin Franklin Parkway in Philadelphia—the city's museum row, the site of the Rodin Museum and the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
Then one day, you got the call: You had been chosen. Imagine the thrill. It would be a career-defining coup, a chance to design a significant cultural icon.
Suppose now that the client in question happens to be the Barnes Foundation. For the last decade-plus, this institution has been embroiled in a contentious dispute about moving its collection from the original location in the nearby suburb of Merion, Pa.—a move that historian Robert Zaller of Drexel University has dubbed the greatest art heist since World War II.
Albert C. Barnes, the foundation's late founder, started amassing his collection in 1912 and collaborated with Paul Philippe Cret, a French-American architect and design professor at the University of Pennsylvania, to build a limestone Beaux-Arts structure in Merion to house it. But in the late 1990s, as the foundation chartered by Barnes floundered financially, a group of institutions (including the Pew Charitable Trust and the Lenfest and Annenberg Foundations) organized a de facto takeover to commandeer the collection and bring it to Center City—or so argues The Art of the Steal, a 2009 documentary about the relocation.
Only the "steal" happens to be legal because Judge Stanley Ott of the Montgomery County Orphans Court, entrusted with the case, already ruled in 2004 that the move was permissible because there was no viable alternative that could have ensured the foundation's survival. The foundation stipulates that the galleries in the new museum must replicate the scale, proportion, and configuration of the original ones.
Suppose you were entrusted to design this new museum. It would be "a beautifully perverse" project, as one short-listed firm described it—the architectural equivalent of performing a high-wire act over the Grand Canyon sans safety net. How might you navigate the politics of this commission? Would it be possible to design a building that could transcend the controversy? How would you create a contemporary piece of architecture that echoed the artworks' original setting without resorting to kitsch? Ethically, should you even have accepted the commission in the first place?
In early March, I first saw the response to this monumental challenge: the new Barnes, designed by Tod Williams, FAIA, and Billie Tsien, AIA, the husband-and-wife partners of their eponymous New York architecture firm. It was a breezy, glorious day, the temperature in the low 70s. Workers were busy landscaping the grounds. The building itself, which was nearing completion for its scheduled opening in May, remained fenced in, access monitored by a guard sitting behind glass panels in a makeshift concrete vestibule. (The additional layers of security protecting the priceless art within seemed to rival a presidential detail.) The sound of drilling echoed through the central court, where tables and chairs were being set up for a private dinner that evening for the project team.
The scene was a study in rising anticipation, for here was the building, its limestone exterior bathed in sunlight, about to be offered up to the public, enabling the critics to begin the complicated and tortuous task of assessing its success. Not that the most vocal of the naysayers hadn't already taken their shots, dubbing the misadventure the "McBarnes" and comparing the building to two shoeboxes topped with a giant glow stick. Given such rhetoric and the multitude of swirling questions, it's probably best to start at the beginning.
The Medici in Merion Albert C. Barnes's life has inspired no shortage of adjectives: eccentric, irascible, litigious, progressive (at least when it came to women and blacks). Barnes was born in 1872 in the Philadelphia slums and became a rich man in part through force of will and impeccable timing. He helped fund his education at the University of Pennsylvania Medical School by tutoring and boxing. Teamed up with Hermann Hille, a German scientist, he went on to make a fortune in the pharmaceutical business, developing a product called Argyrol that helped prevent blindness in infants. Barnes eventually brought a suit against Hille to dissolve their partnership, outbid his now-adversary for the rights to the company, and then cashed out—for $6 million—in the summer of 1929, just a few months before the markets crashed, making him a very rich man.
Barnes's interest in art, inspired by his friend William Glackens, the painter, had by then turned into an obsession. Thanks to frequent art-buying trips to Paris, he filled his Cret-designed building with piece after piece. And the economic climate in the 1930s afforded new opportunities for him to expand his holdings. "I just robbed everybody," Barnes bragged. "Particularly during the Depression, my specialty was robbing the suckers who had invested all their money in flimsy securities and then had to sell their priceless paintings to keep a roof over their heads."
Bluster aside, Barnes did have an eye for art, and when he couldn't sleep at night was an inveterate tinkerer, spending hours rearranging his paintings on the gallery walls. He didn't group the works by period, but rather by color, texture, and composition. And he not only displayed large numbers of paintings in close proximity—radically different from contemporary curation standards—but also displayed them alongside metalwork, African sculpture, and jewelry.

I went to bed Sunday night at 11 PM. I awoke to my screaming alarm at 6 AM. I was shocked by the interruption to my previously unruffled sleep. Were we being bombed? Was there a fire? No. Yoga was happening.
That's right. I recalled the insane idea that had gripped me the previous night to attend the HRC's group fitness session of yoga. Bright and early: 6:30 AM. Now that I think about it, the phrase "bright and early" really doesn't make a whole lot of sense. It wasn't bright at all! In fact it was dark, so I was left to biking the distance hoping that there wasn't some stick lying on the sidewalk waiting to trip up my bike and my youthful dreams of flexibility.
It turned out to be a fantastic experience (against the expectations of college students waking up everywhere). The stretches and exercises that ranged from easy-peesy to agonizing woke up my body, mind, and spirit. I got back, had a great breakfast, and was ready to start my day by 8 AM. The time I usually am waking up.

Myths and Misconceptions About Stem Cell Research
Myths and misconceptions about stem cell research
There are a lot of myths about stem cell research, the origin of the stem cells themselves, and the type of work that takes place. Learn what really takes place in stem cell research.
If you have additional questions about stem cell research that aren't addressed here, you might find answers in our Stem Cell Basics. If you don't find the answers there, please email us at email@example.com.
- How does CIRM ensure that the stem cell research it funds is carried out ethically?
- Where do the embryos come from to create stem cell lines?
- I'm opposed to abortion. Can embryonic stem cell lines come from aborted fetuses?
- I've heard creating stem cell lines destroy the embryo?
- Where do human eggs come from for creating new stem cell lines?
- What other options do people have for unused embryos from fertility treatments?
- I've heard that adult stem cells are as good or better than embryonic stem cells
- Don't iPS cells eliminate the need to use embryos in stem cell research?
- Can't stem cell research lead to human cloning?
How does CIRM ensure that the stem cell research it funds is carried out ethically?
Stem cell research, like any biomedical research, poses social and ethical concerns that CIRM, and the broader research community, takes very seriously. The research community has a history of addressing ethical challenges, and dealing with them in ways that allow research to move forward responsibly.
State and national funding bodies, such as CIRM and the NIH, have comprehensive policies to govern research. For example, CIRM-funded researchers must comply with a comprehensive set of regulations that have been carefully developed and are in accordance with national and international standards. These regulations were among the first formal policies governing the conduct of stem cell research and are in accordance with recommendations from the National Academies and from the International Society for Stem Cell Research. CIRM's Standards Working Group meets regularly to consider new ethical challenges as the science progresses and to revise standards to reflect the current state of the research.
- CIRM regulations
- National Academies of Science guidelines
- International Society for Stem Cell Research guidelines
- National Academies of Science podcast about guidelines for embryonic stem cell research
See a video about ethics training that all CIRM grantees undergo (4:03)
Where do the embryos come from to create stem cell lines?
All the human embryonic stem cell lines currently in use come from four to five day old embryos left over from in vitro fertilization (IVF). In in vitro fertilization, researchers mix a man's sperm and a woman's eggs together in a lab dish. Some of those eggs become fertilized and begin developing. At about five days the egg has divided to become a hollow ball of roughly 100 cells called a blastocyst which is smaller than the size of the dot over an "i". It is these very early embryos that are implanted into the woman in the hopes that she becomes pregnant.
Each cycle of IVF can produce many blastocysts, some of which are implanted into the woman and the rest are stored in the IVF clinic freezer. After a couple has completed their family, they must decide what to do with any remaining embryos. They can continue paying to store the embryos or they can defrost the embryos, which destroys them. Some couples may choose to donate the embryos for adoption, though that option is not commonly taken. In some states, couples can also choose to donate the frozen embryos for research. These donated embryos are the source of human embryonic stem cell lines.
Some embryonic stem cell lines also come from embryos that a couple has chosen not to implant because they carry genetic mutations like the ones that cause cystic fibrosis or Tay Sachs disease. These are discovered through routine genetic testing prior to implantation. Still other embryos might be malformed in some way that causes them to be rejected for implantation into the mother. These embryos with genetic defects of malformations would have been discarded if the couple had not choosen to donate them to stem cell research.
See a video about creating stem cell lines from left over IVF embryos (4:11)
I'm opposed to abortion. Do embryonic stem cell lines come from aborted fetuses?
No. Emybronic stem cells only come from four to five day old blastocysts or younger embryos.
I've heard that creating embryonic stem cell lines destroys the embryo
This is true in most cases. The hollow blastocyst contains a cluster of roughly 20-30 cells called the inner cell mass. These are the cells that become embryonic stem cells in a lab dish. The process of extracting these cells destroys the embryo. Remember that the embryos were donated from in vitro fertilization clinics. They had either been rejected for implantation and were going to be destroyed, or the couple had decided to stop storing the embryos for future use. The embryos used to create embryonic stem cell lines were already destined to be destroyed.
A second method for creating embryonic stem cell lines does not destroy the embryo. Instead, scientists take a single cell from a very early stage IVF embryo and can use that one cell to develop a new line. The process of removing one cell from an early stage embryo has been done for many years as a way of testing the embryo for genetic predisposition to diseases such as Tay Sachs. This process is called preimplantation genetic testing.
What other options do people have for unused embryos from fertility treatments?
People who undergo IVF and have stored embryos have several options regarding what to do with the excess embryos once they have completed their family.
- They can simply discard the embryos
- They can store the embryos indefinitely at their own expense
- They can give the embryos to other infertile couples. (More information about that option is available through the RESOLVE: The National Infertility Association)
- They can donate the embryos to general research or stem cell research
People who donate their left over embryos for research go through an extensive consenting process to ensure that they understand embryonic stem cell research. Under California state, national, or international regulations, no human embryonic stem cell lines should be created without explicit consent from the donor.
Where do human eggs come from for creating stem cell lines through SCNT?
The process of SCNT requires human eggs from living donors. There are a wide range of national and international policies regarding human egg donation. All policies require voluntary and informed consent from the women so they understand the risks and benefits of egg donation.
See a video about creating stem cell lines through SCNT (3:15)
Policies vary as to whether women may be paid or otherwise compensated to donate eggs. Most jurisdictions allow donors to be reimbursed for direct costs such as travel to the clinic or lodging. Some also allow payments or IVF services to be provided to egg donors.
I've heard that adult stem cells are as good or better than embryonic stem cells
Adult stem cells are extremely valuable and have great potential for future therapies. However, these cells are very restricted in what they can do. Blood forming stem cells can treat some blood diseases, and brain stem cells may be able to treat some neural diseases, but those cells can't turn into other tissues types. What's more, adult stem cells don't grow indefinitely in the lab, unlike embryonic stem cells, and they aren't as flexible in the types of diseases they can treat.
It's true that the news is full of stories about people who had great results from adult stem cell therapies. Few of these therapies are part of big trials that can test to be sure that a potential therapy is safe and effective. Until some of these large trials take place with both adult and embyonic stem cells we won't know which cells are the most effective for different diseases. In fact, even researchers who study adult stem cells advocate working with embryonic cells as well.
CIRM encourages work with adult stem cells and is excited about their potential for treating some diseases. However, the goal of CIRM is to accelerate new treatments for incurable diseases and at this time the most effective way of doing that is by exploring all types of stem cells: adult, embryonic, iPS and cancer. That's why CIRM has funded researchers pursuing a wide range of approaches to finding cures for diseases.
- You can see how much of CIRM's funding has gone to different types of stem cells here: Overview of CIRM Stem Cell Research Funding.
- You can also filter our list of all funded CIRM grants to see awards using different cell types.
See a video about the differences between adult and embryonic stem cells (3:29)
See a video about the dangers of stem cell tourism (3:38)
Don't iPS cells eliminate the need to use embryos in stem cell research?
iPS cells are also called reprogrammed cells. They are adult cells – usually skin cells – that scientists can genetically reprogram to appear like embryonic stem cells. They are a very exciting advance, which is why CIRM has funded many grants exploring new ways of creating and using these cells to study or treat disease. However, the technology to create iPS cells is very new and it is still not known whether those cells have the same potential as human embryonic stem cells or whether the cells are safe for transplantation.
Many CIRM-funded researchers are working to find better ways of creating iPS cells that are safe and avoid dangerous virus or mutation so the cells can be used therapeutically. In the mean time, waiting for iPS cells to become therapeutically safe – which will likely take many years – would slow the search for disease treatments. Cures can't wait, which is why CIRM funds all types of stem cell research.
Experts agree that research on all types of stem cells is critical. In September 2008, a panel of experts convened by the U.S. National Academy of Sciences agreed that the use of human embryonic stem cells is still necessary. As the expert panel, chaired by Richard Hynes of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology stated "It is far from clear at this point which types of cell types will prove to be the most useful for regenerative medicine, and it is likely that each will have some utility.
See a video about creating iPS cells (3:40)
Can't stem cell research lead to human cloning?
No. Every significant regulatory and advisory body has restrictions on reproductive cloning. The National Academy of Sciences has issued guidelines banning the technique as has the International Society for Stem Cell Research. The California constitution and CIRM regulations specifically prohibit reproductive cloning with its funding.

POSTED: Saturday, February 16, 2013 - 3:30pm
UPDATED: Saturday, February 16, 2013 - 8:18pm
ATLANTA (CNN) — Chris Dodd, chairman of the Motion Picture Association of America and a former U.S. senator, dismissed as "predictable" on Friday the idea that movies play a role in spurring gun violence and instead said the nation's mental health systems should be the subject of attention in the quest to reduce gun deaths.
"It's sort of predictable, in a way, and if you go back over the years, there were people who suggested that comic books were the reason before any of this existed," he said at the National Press Club. "So there's been - if you go back and look at the history, any time one of these things happens, there's kind of a lurching from time to time to suggest that this is the root cause of the problems."
He was responding to a question about the National Rifle Association's criticism of the movies and broader entertainment field, which the group's executive vice president described in December as "a callous, corrupt and corrupting shadow industry that sells and stows violence against its own people."
"We have blood-soaked films out there like 'American Psycho,' 'Natural Born Killers.' They're aired like propaganda loops on Splatterdays and every single day," Wayne LaPierre said in a statement one week after a gunman shot dead 20 students and six adults at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Connecticut.
Dodd was raised in Connecticut and said his father, also a U.S. senator, "was very involved in these issues."
"Connecticut is now the seventh largest producer of guns - we were No. 1 in the country for many years with the Colt and the Winchester and the like, but if you were to ask me where I think we need to be focusing a lot of our attention, it is in the mental health space," he said.
He noted his work on the Mental Health Parity Act, which required health insurers provide access to mental health care alongside other types of treatment.
"While there's much more pyrotechnics around guns and about media, my hope is ... if we don't do anything else, to (act to) finally put some meaningful resources into the scourge of mental health," he said.
Representatives from the motion picture association and other entertainment groups met with Vice President Joe Biden and the gun violence group President Barack Obama appointed after the Newtown shooting. The group also met with the NRA and other gun rights advocacy groups, gun control proponents and mental health advocates.
A CNN/Time/ORC International Poll in mid-January found 37% of Americans believe the influence of popular culture is the primary cause of gun violence. An equal number attributed it to the ways parents raise their children and 23% cited the availability of guns.
The NRA has not focused on the role of movies, video games and other media since the December statement, but has called for making the current background check system more functional, including increasing the reporting of individuals with mental health issues that would make them unsuitable gun owners.
As part of the December statement, LaPierre unveiled a School Shield program that would put armed security officers or police officers into schools as a line of defense against gun violence.
His comments on the entertainment industry were scathing at that announcement. He cited movies, video games and music videos that the producers "have the nerve to call ... entertainment."
"But is that what it really is? Isn't fantasizing about killing people as a way to get your kicks really the filthiest form of pornography?" he asked. "In a race to the bottom, many conglomerates compete with one another to shock, violate and offend every standard of civilized society, by bringing an even more toxic mix of reckless behavior and criminal cruelty right into our homes."

New Gas Industry Astroturf: Landowner Advocates of NY Buses Activists to Albany Pro-Fracking Rally
6:54 am in Uncategorized by Steve Horn
Cross-Posted from DeSmogBlog
A pro-fracking rally held on Oct. 15 in Albany, NY was described by about a dozen local media outlets as a gathering of roughly 1,000 grassroots activists from all walks of life.
All came out to add their voice to the conversation regarding the extraction of unconventional gas from the Marcellus Shale basin in New York state. But the marchers weren't concerned landowners worried about losing their water supplies or property values. Their demand: to lift the current moratorium on fracking, which was prolonged by Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Sept. 30.
One rally attendee, Doug Lee, described the ongoing fracking moratorium as a "communist act" to the Albany Times-Union. Another described anti-fracking activists as "well-funded and organized activists masquerading as environmentalists, who often do not need to make a living in our communities." Republican Sen. Tom Libous, observed that Hollywood stars Mark Ruffalo and Debra Winger weren't on the scene, telling them to "Stay in Hollywood. We don't want you here."
Unmentioned by any of the news outlets that covered the event was a crucial fact: these weren't actual "grassroots" activists, but rather astroturf out-of-towners bused in from counties all across the state. Their journey was paid for by the legitimately "well-funded" oil and gas industry, which raked in profits of $1 trillion in the past decade.
According to the Associated Press, the pro-fracking rally and march were organized by a brand new front group called the Landowner Advocates of New York formed in the immediate aftermath of the recent Cuomo decision to stall on opening the fracking floodgates.
The well-known industry front group, Energy in Depth (EID), announced the launch of the Landowner Advocates of New York in an Oct. 3 blog post, mere days after the Cuomo announcement. Lee (the same man who accused Cuomo of partaking in a "communist act" by extending the fracking moratorium) wrote about the rationale behind the group's genesis – which he is the head of and which he registered the website for – in the EID post announcing the Landowner Advocates' launch:

Cadence and Mentor Announce Immediate Availability of the Open Verification Methodology
Award-Winning Interoperable SystemVerilog Methodology Ready for Download
SAN JOSE, Calif., and WILSONVILLE, Ore., Jan. 9, 2008 – Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CDNS) and Mentor Graphics Corp. (NASDAQ: MENT) today announced immediate availability of the Open Verification Methodology (OVM), which was recently awarded a "2007 BEST" award for EDA technology from Electronic Design Magazine. Distributed under the standard open-source Apache™ 2.0 license, the OVM source code, documentation, and use examples may be downloaded free of charge from http://www.ovmworld.org. The OVM Web site is the central point of access for the OVM source code, providing information about partners, events, seminars, training, how-to instructions and future plans.
The OVM, based on IEEE Std. 1800™-2005 SystemVerilog standard, is the first open, language-interoperable, SystemVerilog verification methodology in the industry. The OVM provides a methodology and accompanying library that allow users to create modular, reusable verification environments in which components communicate with each other via standard transaction-level modeling interfaces. It also enables intra- and inter-company reuse through a common methodology and classes for virtual sequences and block-to-system reuse, and full integration with other languages commonly used in production flows. As a joint development initiative between Mentor Graphics® and Cadence® Design Systems, the OVM is supported on multiple verification platforms ideally suited to both novice and expert verification engineers.
"Open source, plug-and-play reuse, and multi-language support are the leading requests from our verification and training customers," said Yoshiyumi Nagano, CEO of HD Lab. "We have reviewed other methodologies in the market, but only OVM offers this combination of capabilities. We are pleased to see the first release of the OVM source code and believe this will increase the efficiency."
The OVM includes the foundation-level utilities necessary for building advanced object-oriented, coverage-driven verification environments and reusable Verification IP (VIP) in SystemVerilog. The OVM reduces the complexity of adopting SystemVerilog by embedding verification practices into its methodology and library, and significantly shortens the time to create verification environments, easily integrate plug-and-play VIP and ensure code portability and reuse.
"As a leading supplier of silicon IP, Denali is pleased to see the significant traction OVM has gained throughout the industry," said Juirong Cheng, vice president of engineering at Denali Software. "The OVM 1.0 achieves the fusion of open SystemVerilog and interoperability required to enable adoption across our broad customer base. The OVM source code, documentation, and examples have the quality and interoperability we need to deliver OVM-compliant VIP this year."
"The Open Verification Methodology represents a major step forward in protecting our customers' investment in verification flows and reusable verification IP," said Robert Hum, vice president and general manager of Mentor Graphics Design, Verification and Test Business Unit. "After extensive customer interaction, we believe OVM will definitely accelerate the move to SystemVerilog, and provide significant competitive advantage to design and verification teams around the world."
"We have discussed OVM with more than a thousand engineers at customer sites and have worked with more than a dozen customers and partners during the Beta period," said Ziv Binyamini, corporate vice president, Product and Technologies Organization at Cadence Design Systems. "The level of interest in OVM is overwhelming, so we are pleased to be able to make it available to the entire industry as a critical step in delivering on the full promise of SystemVerilog."
"Doulos is pleased to be associated with the first public release of OVM, and to have worked closely with the Cadence and Mentor teams to ensure OVM adopters have access to high-quality training aligned with this release," said Rob Hurley, CEO of Doulos. "OVM addresses the very real market need for a standard verification methodology based on SystemVerilog, and does so in style."
A production version of OVM is available immediately with additional functionality planned for release later in 2008. Cadence and Mentor have collaborated to ensure that the OVM runs on their simulators and enables backwards compatibility with their existing environments, Advanced Verification Methodology from Mentor Graphics, and Incisive® Plan-to-Closure Methodology (Universal Reuse Methodology module) from Cadence.

Home invasion shooting investigation continues
Wednesday, January 16, 2013
LEBANON, Maine — The man struck in the shoulder and chest by a bullet last week remains hospitalized, as police follow up on leads in their search for the suspect who reportedly invaded the home at 11 2nd Street.
Potorski's wife came home around 1:30 p.m. the day of the shooting, and called 911 around 1:45 p.m., after finding her husband injured in the bathroom.
Police are still piecing together the timeline of the events leading up to the shooting, and it's still unclear what occurred between the time that Potorski found the intruder and the time of the shooting.
Potorski also has a criminal history. In York County Superior Court in 2011, he was sentenced to 364 days in jail, with all but 60 days suspended, for a drug trafficking charge. Asked if the Jan. 8 crime may have been drug-related, McDonough previously told Foster's that officials "haven't ruled anything out."
McCausland said he would not speculate on what charges the suspect would face if apprehended. |

Case | HBS Case Collection | January 2014 (Revised December 2014) GenapSys: Business Models for the Genome Richard G. Hamermesh, Joseph B. Fuller and Matthew Preble GenapSys, a California-based startup, was soon to release a new DNA sequencer that the company's founder, Hesaam Esfandyarpour, believed was truly revolutionary. The sequencer would be substantially less expensive—potentially costing just a few thousand dollars—and smaller than other sequencers, many of which were large devices costing tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars. GenapSys' device, named GENIUS, could also quickly generate large amounts of data, as it was capable of sequencing an entire human genome in less than eight hours. At this price, GenapSys' device would be attractive to customers that had been unable to afford sequencers, such as smaller laboratories or hospitals, and even expand the market to include industries such as agriculture and biofuels. As GenapSys came closer to releasing its product, Esfandyarpour and his Senior Director of Operations and Strategy, Leila Rastegar (HBS '11), sat down to decide which of three business models they would choose to bring this device to market. In the first model, the company would sell sequencers at a higher price to those entities which already purchased sequencers, primarily major research labs and pharmaceutical firms, but position its machine as a faster alternative to existing technologies. In the second model, GenapSys would sell its sequencer at a lower price but charge more for the cartridges necessary to run a sample, and earn its primary revenue from these cartridges. The third model would see GenapSys sell its device at or around cost, but use the data customers generated to create a proprietary database of genetic information. Customers could pay to access the database for research, to create genetic tests, or for many other purposes. GenapSys would also build an online store with the genetic tests customers created. Esfandyarpour's and Rastegar's decision would determine GenapSys' customer base and financial position for the coming years, and also impact development and capital needs of the firm. Which was the right model to bring the device to market and have a meaningful impact?

Case | HBS Case Collection | October 2014 The National Football League and Brain Injuries Richard G. Hamermesh and Matthew G. Preble The National Football League (NFL) was both the most popular spectator sport in the U.S. and a major economic entity, taking in roughly $10 billion a year in revenue. However through the early twenty-first century, an increased understanding of the long-term effects of head injuries on NFL players indicated a serious threat to the long-term viability of the game. Particularly concerning was the indication that some deceased professional football players had developed chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE)—a neurodegenerative disease which had a strong influence on a person's mental and physical health—most likely as a result of repetitive hits sustained during their football careers and which may have contributed to their deaths. Over 4,000 retired players had jointly sued the NFL over the head injuries they had sustained during their time in the NFL and the resulting health problems they attributed to these injuries. In part, the lawsuit alleged that the NFL had not been forthcoming with players about the health risks of head injuries. The two sides had reached a tentative $765 million settlement in 2013, the bulk of which would go to compensating retired players suffering from such diseases as Alzheimer's or dementia. While this settlement compensated retired players, it was not applicable to current or future players. Could the NFL preserve the sport by making it safer through new rules or equipment changes, or was football an inherently physical game that no amount of new rules or equipment could make completely safe? Were current and future players, now knowing full well the potential long-term health implications of football, tacitly accepting the risks involved? As a team owner, is now the time to sell while franchise value and fan support are at their peaks, or will the business of the NFL be viable for years to come?
