Saint John
New Brunswick
Friday May 30
FezMobile travels in and around Saint John, NB
The Exceptional Care Odyssey toured around Saint John, New Brunswick today. It is a beautiful city, surrounded by lakes, rivers and, of course, the iconic reversing falls.
The Fez Mobile was a big hit at two stops at local malls where we supported the Shriners efforts to sell Fezerro tickets to win a new car. Proceeds from the raffle support the Shriners Hospital for Children-Canada and the Luxor transportation fund, which helps children and their families, get to and from their doctors' appointments.
Luxor Shriner Rene Cormier was our gracious and informative tour guide. He showed us some beautiful sites. Take a look at the day's pictures.
Did you know that in New Brunswick including the Canada Shriners Hospital's Bathurst Outreach Clinic, held in partnership with the Chaleur Regional Hospital, over 300 infants, children and teenagers from this province are being actively followed in their own community for initial assessment or follow-up care. This minimizes the stress on the patients and families as well as reduces the cost of transportation. Opened in 2002, the Bathurst Outreach Clinic is held every few months, an orthopaedic surgeon as well as a nurse from Shriners Hospitals for Children—Canada travel to the patients.
Follow the Odyssey at www.exceptionalcare4kids.com, facebook.com/ShrinersHospitalsforChildrenCanada or twitter.com/ShrinersCanada.

LAGOS, Nigeria, April 8, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
MTN, the leading ICT company in Nigeria and Nova-Lumos, the world's first distributed utility provider, announced their collaboration today on a next-generation alternative "mobile electricity" service. The Nova-Lumos service will provide alternative electricity to MTN customers who are living in rural areas across Nigeria and are not connected to the electricity grid.
The Nova-Lumos service is provided using a solar panel and an indoor unit that allows MTN customers to subscribe to alternative electricity on demand using their mobile phone. With Nova-Lumos, MTN customers can replace kerosene, candles and flashlights with modern electricity that can power significant lights, cellphones, fans, PCs or laptops, radios, TVs and other small electronic devices, all at once, every day. "By paying for usage only in small payments, the same way our customers purchase airtime and other mobile services, MTN and Nova-Lumos will offer an innovative and widely-accessible service for all MTN customers," said Michael Ikpoki, MTN Nigeria CEO. "MTN is committed to investing in the future of mobile electricity to our customers across Nigeria," he added.
The first Nova-Lumos systems will be publicly available on the MTN service points for the general public soon. A future announcement about the systems' availability will be made by MTN.
"We are very excited about our partnership with MTN which will enable us to distribute the Nova-Lumos power systems across Nigeria and touch millions of lives," said David Vortman, CEO and Co-Founder at Nova-Lumos. "One of our guiding principles is that the Nova-Lumos service must be affordable and accessible to anyone in Nigeria in order to have a meaningful impact on the Nigerian electricity market," he emphasized.
Nova Lumos in partnership with MTN Nigeria received funding from the GSMA's Mobile Enabled Community Services (MECS) Innovation Grant Fund with the support of the UK Government. This grant is awarded to organizations developing innovations that improve access to energy and water among undeserved communities by leveraging mobile technology and infrastructure. The MECS Innovation Fund has helped to highlight the demand for mobile-enabled services and the role that mobile can play in supporting access to basic utility services across rural and urban markets.

But it seems most conversations about Hybrid are focused on integrating AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Google ECM into existing on-premises systems. Where is all the Private Cloud? What do technology providers need to do to make their offerings more compelling? How should enterprise IT executives and buyers define their focus, needs, and roadmap, and communicate that clearly to the providers?

Lexus' newest hybrid — the CT 200h –is comingrelatively quickly to a dealer near you, the automaker announced today. Those interested in what the brand calls the "first dedicated hybrid in the premium compact segment" can expect it to arrive in early 2011. It'll make another showing at this month's New York auto show.
Officials revealed they'll focus their marketing campaign at energetic, young, and of course, tech-savvy buyers who have a more than a few bucks burning in their bank accounts. An interactive short film giving a "fully immersive" test drive is the first of many attention-grabbing schemes.
There's been no word on pricing just yet, but expect more information to arrive in the coming months.

DQ0211/55E Ophthalmic Glasses
These sunglasses complement your look with an accessory that is a cut above the rest. True to the Edel-Optics motto "SEE AND BE SEEN", you are on a par with celebrities, impressing in every environment. The DQ0211 is available in the Edel-Optics online shop in other styles from Dsquared collections 2015 and 2016.
These Sunglasses are a guarantee for looking good for both men and women. Eyewear is in. Full rim is extremely popular, because you feel that you get more eyeglass for your money. It is not just about their resilience, but also about the visibility of material and design, which are of the highest quality. The square shape gives round faces a concise form and makes them appear more striking. It sets a highlight in the appearance, drawing attention to itself. Plastic is a very lightweight and flexible material. This ensures a long life and a high level of comfort. Havana is a particularly warm, "spotted" shade of brown and can be found in almost every collection. The colour dates back to the origin of eyewear, when frames were made of turtle shells. Havana makes your face appear softer and can be ideally combined with autumn and spring colours. Brown is the dominant colour for sunglass lenses. They radiate warmth and look very soft. Functionally, you are, of course, on the safe side, too. With 100% UV eye protection, the sun can immediately start shining.
The model has already been ordered and will shortly be back in stock. If you order now, you will get the reduced price and once the goods arrive, we will send you your new Dsquared on the same day. If you buy at Edel-Optics you get the best price, because "in the sale" is our standard.

You should stop following basketball since everything you preach is invalid completely.
This draft is very deep and strong, do your research.
Given that this draft is so so and how having a horrible record doesn't make you a lock at all to have a top pick in the lottery I say the Knicks should play hard. The only thing is I want guys like Nate, Lee, Balkman, Collins, Chandler and even Randolph Morris play minutes. I dont know about Chandler and Morris but Nate, Lee, Balkman and Collins all have the ability to be solid NBA winning players.
Isiah doesn't know how to put a team together through trades and free agency but he's good at the draft, can't take that away from him.
Gms, coaches, players may change but as long as Dolan is in charge the results will stay the same.

now i got 5 years without seeing them in the playoffs i miss that emotion
Every draft has all star players and no doubt Beasley and Rose sure look like the real deal. However there are all stars, then there are franchise players and once every few years you have guys that you know are definitely hall of famers, who will be competing for, if not winning championships, ie duncan, shaq, lebron, hakeem, ewing, magic, bird. Those are the guys nba teams have tanked for, Beasley and Rose may end up being great, hall of fame players but as of now, unlike the list i just wrote, they are not sure things.
Yeah that was a mother joke, not one of my better efforts, my bad, i just figured that if I took things down to rugrat level metro would understand me better.
Gms, coaches, players may change but as long as Dolan is in charge the results will stay the same.
No one predicts NBA lottery picks to be hall of fame players, don't be so ignorant. There are a lot of quality players in this draft if you do your research; its very DEEP. Just because you don't follow NCB doesn't mean you need to invite your ignorance to this thread and say some stupid ****, especially since the only players you know in this draft are Rose and Beasley. I'm tired of smacking you around like a child. How about you post something useful for once? Everyone on this site contributes knowledge, even Don Chris, except you and the monkey. Like MSG33 said, go read a book or give up following basketball. It isn't your thing. You're not even in college or working, just sitting @ home butt naked eating pancakes con cyrup with Curry and Zach.
lol at me not being in college or not working. How you guys would actually know that is beyond me but for the record I've graduated college. Also you have no idea how funny it is that you tell me to go read a book considering that my job is to actually write them.
Gms, coaches, players may change but as long as Dolan is in charge the results will stay the same.
You're not showing you graduated out of college or write books.. lol @ you complaining about me being defensive in the past, but yet you do the same, you a fool son.

One of the benefits of being a relatively younger fright fan is being able to see the cult classics and eerie obscurities of the '80s for the first time in this day and age. Whether it's insane fright fare like BLOOD RAGE, the campy fun of MADMAN or the ridiculous proto-slashers of BLOOD AND LACE, they certainly don't make 'em how they used to, and without the baggage of the bigger franchises looming over them as they must have upon their initial release, these bad boys often take a life of their own. And somewhere among the weirder horror offerings is THE MUTILATOR, a brutal oddity that, for all of its pacing and dialogue issues, more than makes up for it in the gore department with a stylish scene or two to help keep things interesting.Read more »

"FROM DUSK TILL DAWN: THE COMPLETE SECOND SEASON" (Blu-ray Review)Movies/TV,News,Reviews Ken W. Hanley
While Robert Rodriguez's El Rey Network continues to grow with each passing month, with various events, marathons and original programs (including the fantastic DIRECTOR'S CHAIR series) helping that growth, the channel is likely still best known for FROM DUSK TILL DAWN: THE SERIES. Building upon the mythos established in the film of the same name, FROM DUSK TILL DAWN's second season saw the Gecko Brothers, Satanico Pandemonium, the Fuller Family and all the various outliers go into bold new territory. And now, fright fans have the opportunity to sink their teeth into FROM DUSK TILL DAWN: THE COMPLETE SECOND SEASON in a newly packaged Blu-ray set, courtesy of Entertainment One.Read more »

PIECES was the first "No one under 17 admitted" movie I ever saw back in my burgeoning horror-lovin' youth without an older friend to help me through the doors.

"THE X-FILES: Season 10, Episode 4" (TV Review)Movies/TV,News,Reviews Ken W. Hanley
After putting together an out-and-out contemporary classic with "Scully and Mulder meet the Were-Monster," one might have imagined that the next installment of THE X-FILES would have a tough time reaching that high bar. Yet to be perfectly honest, one could assume that no one expected "Home Again" to be a busy, unfocused and frankly disappointing chapter of THE X-FILES revival. After all, Glen Morgan's writing and direction on the series has frequently been stellar, but when THE X-FILES announced its return would be contained to a six-episode event series, the fact that one episode missed the mark so prominently shows that the little time fans have with Scully and Mulder again feels more valuable than it once was.Read more »

"ALL HALLOWS' EVE 2" (Film Review)Movies/TV,News,Reviews Ken W. Hanley
Whether you're a fan or completely unaware of the 2013 indie horror anthology ALL HALLOWS' EVE, there's a good chance you'll find it's sequel to be a frustrating experience. On one hand, fans of the first film might be disappointed that the structure and face of the first film- the bloodthirsty 'Art the Clown'- is completely thrown away in favor of something completely different altogether. And on the other hand, the anthology film more or less plays exactly how it was produced: a collection of wholly disconnected horror shorts bought and assembled with no cohesion or mission statement. Though some of these shorts are well produced and executed in their own right, the overall ALL HALLOWS' EVE 2 experience feels far from satisfying, especially when paired with a lazy and generic wrap-around segment.Read more »

Great light dessert, and super easy to throw together. I used light soy milk in place of the skim milk, and I added about 2 tsp. cinnamon to the liquid ingredients, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. Turned out great, and cooked in the time allotted in the instructions. Thanks for a great dessert!
This was a very nice, not to dweet but sweet enough dessert. Mine had to bake alot more than the time stated, but other than that, this recipe was great!! Thanks for the recipe jackandfiona!
Wow, this really was fantastic. I made it for dessert for Canadian Thanksgiving in place of pumpkin pie, and I loved it. I used peach slices in place of pear halves (I thought I had pears in the cupboard - surprise!), but changed nothing else. Mine took closer to 50 minutes to set, but my oven sucks, so that wasn't a surprise to me. Thanks for posting this!

Cast of characters countdown: William R. Johnson
The Christopher Street Liberation Day parade from Greenwich Village to Central Park on June 28, 1970 was peaceful. Though police turned their backs on the marchers, they honored their parade permit.
Across the nation in San Francisco, police were less respectful at a much smaller event that same day, consisting of a couple of hundred queers at a "Gay In" at Golden Gate park; police arrested several of the participants. San Francisco was years away from its later reputation as an LGBT friendly city.
Five years earlier, on New Year's eve 1965, San Francisco police had broken promises made to the clergy organizers of a ball sponsored by the Council on Religion and Homosexuality. When police attempted to crash the ball, the word went out to the clergy organizers: "Get down here and wear your collar." Lutheran pastor Chuck Lewis kept flash bulbs popping, and his assistant, Jo Chadwick, stuffed his film negatives in her bra to prevent the police from confiscating the photos. At a later press conference, clergy offered the "cloak of the cloth" moral authority, and the eyes of the nation witnessed the reality of police harassment of the gay community.
Five months after the arrests at the "Gay In" at Golden Gate Park, another historic event would quietly unfold across the Bay. Sitting atop "Holy Hill," the neo-Gothic structures of the Pacific School of Religion (PSR) stand in stately vigil over San Francisco Bay across from the Golden Gate bridge. The stone and timber halls of PSR had long witnessed Christian activism. Founded by Yankee congregationalists from the east in 1866, the seminary prided itself on a "courage born of rashness."
Four hundred students and others attended a homosexuality symposium in the seminary dining hall on November 11, 1970. When someone made an incendiary comment about gays, a young seminarian found himself rising to speak. His spontaneous comment changed his life and the course of church history.
I am not a faggot, I am not a queer, I am not a fairy–but I am a practicing homosexual. And I can say that with joy–it is an affirmation which I make with pride.
Despite his impromptu "coming out" and over the objections of the seminary president, William R. Johnson continued in seminary and the Golden Gate Association of the United Church of Christ (UCC) ordained him to the ministry in June 1972 around the third anniversary of Stonewall. The UCC had accomplished another historic "first"—the first ordination of an out gay man by any traditional Christian denomination.
Thus began a distinguished career as the pastor to countless gay Christians, including many closeted clergy, and as the pan-denominational prophetic leader of the movement toward full inclusion. Rev. Johnson served as inspiration and strategist for the fledgling LGBT advocacy organizations that appeared in Protestant denominations during the 1970s, including as founder and first leader of what came to be known as the UCC Coalition. Later, he served for many years in the UCC home office.
Pastor Johnson has only recently retired. Elmhurst College, his alma mater, has honored him with an annual lecture series in his name. Pastor Johnson has also been a fact-checking source and supporter during my compilation of Queer Clergy: A History of Gay and Lesbian Ministry in American Protestantism.
He offers this endorsement of the book:
"I have always known that this historical overview of the religious LGBT movement was needed not only to tell our movement stories to the masses but to make same-gender loving people aware of a significant but often overlooked part of their own history. This is a significant work by justice ally Obie Holmen — a singular contribution toward the full inclusion of LGBT people within Christian community and society. Many will be surprised by the breadth and depth of the movement in the Church."
Cast of characters countdown: Robert Mary Clement
On a June summer's evening in 1969, a gay Catholic priest and his partner heard a disturbance a few blocks away from their Greenwich Village home. It seems a routine police raid on the Stonewall Inn, a gay bar, had gone awry, and the queers didn't go quietly. Riots continued for the next couple of days, and the gay liberation movement was born.
A year later, the priest and his partner prepared to participate in a parade to celebrate the one-year anniversary of the Stonewall riots. A light beamed from the Oscar Wilde bookstore, and as if drawn by a beacon, a few faceless strangers shuffled out of the shadows to gather in awkward silence. By the time the sun first peeked over Brooklyn across the East River, a crowd of hundreds milled about the bookstore that had become the de facto headquarters for the audacious planners of Christopher Street Liberation Day to celebrate the first anniversary of Stonewall. At the time, they didn't realize they would make history in the first Gay Pride march.
Father Robert Mary Clement, a priest associated with Old Catholicism, a non-Roman spinoff, donned his priestly garb, like he did every Sunday, while his partner prepared a placard and orange flyers that they would distribute at the parade. Father Clement's presence in the parade garnered much attention, especially by the press and the picture-takers, second only to the drag queens; after all, he marched as an openly-gay priest, in collar and cassock, carrying the banner, "Gay People This Is Your Church." Meanwhile, his partner distributed their colored fliers inviting queers to attend The Church of the Beloved Disciple.
A few weeks later, the tiny congregation of the Church of the Beloved Disciple paid more than they could afford to rent the spacious sanctuary of Holy Apostles Episcopal church in lower Manhattan, but as the time drew near for the Sunday afternoon service, it appeared that their invitation to the Christopher Street marchers would go unheeded. Father Clement peeked out from the sacristy fifteen minutes before the start and there was no one there, but then:
Two o'clock, we opened the side sacristy door for our procession. We couldn't believe it. It wasn't just that every seat in the church was filled, the aisles were packed. That church, which would hold maybe six hundred plus in a squeeze, had over eight hundred people in it, and we don't know how many people were turned away that day who couldn't get in.
Because we had all the Protestants, the Orthodox, the Catholics. And on top of it all, you had, the most incredible thing, we had Jewish people, a lot of them. Because they wanted a home. Even though it was Christian, people were seeking God, they were seeking a relationship to the divine, and they would come to us because everyone else had rejected or turned them away. They had nowhere to go. [emphasis added]
In the early years of the decade of the '70s, the Church of the Beloved Disciple would be a safe haven for gays and lesbians of lower Manhattan. Father Clement and his partner would later relocate to California where Father Clement became an archbishop for an independent Catholic group, and he has remained active in the interfaith LGBT movement on the west coast.
This brief biographical sketch is merely a snippet, and Father Clement's story receives greater treatment in Queer Clergy: A History of Gay and Lesbian Ministry in American Protestantism.
Cast of characters countdown: Troy Perry
Queer Clergy recounts the journey toward full LGBT inclusion in the church, and readers will encounter many pilgrims along the way. As we countdown to the release of the book (now looking like the end of November), I will provide brief biographical sketches of some of the wayfarers who criss-cross the pages of the book.
Troy Perry was born to a family of bootleggers in the Florida panhandle, and he exhibited a youthful bent toward preaching. Perry became a Baptist preacher at age 15, married a preacher's daughter at age 19 with whom he fathered two children, and was assigned as pastor to a Pentecostal Church in Santa Ana, California at age 22. Six years later he attempted suicide after he had been defrocked and divorced, and then life got interesting.
In October 1968, 8 months before the Stonewall riots of Greenwich Village marked the birth of the gay liberation movement, Perry held a worship service in his Los Angeles home for members of his gay community. Twelve persons dared to show up. They sang. They read Scripture. They prayed. Perry preached. They shed tears as they shared bread and wine.
That was the first worship service of what became the Metropolitan Community Church (MCC) movement with hundreds of predominantly gay congregations popping up around the country and around the world in what would become the first welcoming church for gays and lesbians at a time that the rest of Christendom, including the mainline, Protestant denominations, remained hostile.
In the early years, the MCC survived several arsonist fires, including a horrendous tragedy in New Orleans that claimed the lives of 32 persons. By the time of Perry's retirement in 2005, the MCC had grown to over 250 congregations in 26 countries with 43,000 members.
Of course, the book goes into greater detail.
Last minute edits
Last week, I read my Queer Clergy manuscript for the umpteenth time. As I tell my wife, sometimes I really like it and other times I think it is fluff. This latest re-reading of the manuscript marked up by Pilgrim Press copy editor, Kris Firth, was positive. Perhaps it was her editorial feedback:
I applaud you on your scholarship, writing, and the scope of the material, but also on the excellent condition of the manuscript. It's obvious that you have had editorial review prior to submission.
Actually, the MS hadn't been edited previously, except by me, but I confess to nit-picking scrupulosity. In any case, her suggested edits are now in place, and the "page proofs" will be available for final review soon. Galley copies are in the hands of potential reviewers, and I wait, mindful of my days as a trial attorney, sucking in a long, deep breath as the jury shuffled out of the courtroom to begin deliberations.
Siddhartha Mukherjee's "The Emperor of All Maladies"
I recently finished reading Siddhartha Mukherjee's The Emperor of All Maladies: A Biography of Cancer. I recommend it highly to those who want to know more about cancer.
It's a long and challenging read, but it's worth it. The main thing I learned: cancer is a many-headed hydra. Each type of cancer is a different disease that requires a different type of treatment.
What we deserve
The rich, the well-connected, the privileged, and the powerful have given themselves the society that they deserve. The rest of us deserve better.
Hopes and Dreams
On November 22nd, all of the members of Norcoh met for their second programming meeting. These cards with simple but effective drawings helped express their hopes, dreams, and goals for the neighborhood.
The cohousing design discussion on November 5, 2009, was well-attended and lively conversation sprouted afterward. Attendees included ages from very young to retirement-age, which is a perfect match for our goals for our community.
In February, we will be offering a Community Ed course in four sessions for those who would like more information. Also, stay tuned to this blog for more opportunities to engage!

Car Transport
The Companies Can Cut Down On Logistics Costs By Ensuring Car Transport Is Taken Care By Experts In The Business
In order to make sure that the cars and other auto shippers that are sold by the manufacturing company reaches on time to the showrooms in which they are displayed, it is necessary that they would have the right logistical support to ensure that they would not have any process implementation gaps and will be sure that the goods in the form of cars or vans or even the trucks would reach there on time without having to be driven to the destination that may be in the different parts of the town, in the different states within the country or even between the countries if the vehicles have the necessary permit to transit across the borders. With the economy not booming to the highs, it is necessary for even those who are involved in the car transport to ensure that the unnecessary costs are removed totally and even the necessary costs would have to be done in an efficient manner, which would not just reduce the overheads for the organization, but also ensure that they would be able to translate the reduction in costs with the offers that they can make in terms of the revised prices for their consumers. The best practices can enable the value added services, as well as on time delivery of the goods that come in interstatecartransport.com to the various showrooms that are available in the many destinations, where the markets are being reached to through the retail showrooms to enable the sales. It is necessary that the reduction of the costs in terms of the logistical applications should be done in the form of creative reduction of the costs. This would also ensure that the car transport will happen on time they would have the work done at the reduced costs without having to shell out too much of monies.

BMI View: Poland will remain one of the most attractive pharmaceutical and healthcare markets in the CEE region. Strong economic growth and the introduction of a tax-funded healthcare system will support strong market growth. Opportunities for innovative drugmakers will be significant, with an ageing population and increasing accessibility for advanced treatment. However, the potential for the formation of a Visegrad joint medicine agreement with the Czech Republic, Hungary and Slovakia pose both upside and downside risks to innovative drugmakers should it go ahead, as joint purchasing initiatives tend to bring pricing pressures which would boost sales whilst reducing profit margins.
Headline Expenditure Projections
Pharmaceuticals: PLN33.39bn (USD8.85bn) in 2015 to PLN34.90bn (USD8.58bn) in 2016; +4.5% in local currency terms and -3.1% in US dollar terms. Forecast revised downwards from last quarter.
Healthcare: PLN114.50bn (USD30.37bn) in 2015 to PLN120.79bn (USD29.71bn) in 2016; +5.5% in local currency terms and -2.2% in US dollar terms. Forecast revised downwards from last quarter.
|f = BMI forecast. Source: WHO, National Sources, BMI
|Pharmaceutical sales, USDbn
|Pharmaceutical sales, % of GDP
|Pharmaceutical sales, % of health expenditure
|Health spending, USDbn
Risk/Reward Index
Poland has a Risk/Reward Index (RRI) score of 63.1 out of 100 for Q316, slightly lower than last quarter's score of 63.9, making it the second most attractive pharmaceutical market in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), just below the Czech Republic (65.6). Poland has the second highest pharmaceutical market expenditure (score of 14.0 out of 20.0) in CEE, behind Russia. The country also benefits from an independent judiciary, with the legal framework improving in recent years and converging towards EU standards. The judicial system still suffers from inefficiency and corruption, although efforts have been made to tackle the latter at both court and enforcement level.
Latest Updates
In May 2016, President Anfrzej Duda signed a bill to provide Polish pensioners over the age of 75 with free medicines, medical devices and certain nutritional foods.
In May 2016, the nurses at The Children's Memorial Health Instituted in Warsaw, one of Poland's largest specialist paediatric hospitals, went on strike over wages, forcing the hospital to cease admitting new patients and send others under care to nearby facilities.
The Polish Ministry of Health plans to introduce new legislations which would requires a pharmacy to be at least 51% owned by a qualified pharmacist, in an effort to give more market control to pharmacies and improve regulation of the sector.
In April 2016, representatives of the Ministries of Health for the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia met and discussed the potential to collectively purchase medicines for rare diseases under a Visegrad joint medicines procurement agreement.
BMI Economic View
Household consumption and fixed investment will continue be the joint engines for economic growth in the years ahead. Mounting political uncertainty due to right-wing Law and Justice party policies will not significantly undermine Poland's strong macroeconomic fundamentals. We forecast its economy to expand by 3.7% in 2016 and 3.5% in 2017.
BMI Political View
The ruling Law and Justice party will tighten its grip on Poland's institutions, after disabling the constitutional court and passing far-reaching security laws. We expect a prolonged clash with the European Union to increase investor uncertainty and hurt economic growth.

"With our sights set on future pivotal trials for our T-cell therapy products, we have invested significant effort towards establishing capabilities within Adaptimmune that support expansion of our clinical platform in terms of both scale and compliance with FDA requirements beyond Phase I/II. Our relationship with PCT is an important component," said James Noble, CEO of Adaptimmune. Last month Adaptimmune reported preliminary results from an early phase clinical study using patients' own T cells that have been genetically altered to attack multiple myeloma (MM) cells. The clinical study was designed as a single-arm open-label study where patients are given standard of care (autologous stem cell transplant) in conjunction with engineered T cells. The critical step in this new approach is that the infused T cells have been genetically engineered to carry receptors that help the T cells recognize and attack a tumor, while sparing healthy tissue, explained Noble.
Study objectives were to evaluate the safety, bioactivity, and antitumor effect of infusion of patients' own T cells that have been genetically modified to express a high-affinity T cell receptor (TCR) specific for a type of tumor antigen (protein) known as a cancer testis antigen (CT antigen). The target CT antigens in the study are NY-ESO-1 and LAGE-1.
The initial six patient phase is complete and, based on the preliminary results, the study was extended to a target enrollment of 26 patients. To date, a total of 15 patients have been enrolled and have received the engineered T cells; of these, 13 have been assessed at day 100 and 11 patients have reached a minimum-of-six-month follow-up for assessment of tumor response to the treatment.

About the bloggers
Brian Joseph grew up in a Midwestern, Jewish family where Rush Limbaugh played on the radio and most dinners were low fat. He's been in the Register's Sacramento bureau since early 2006 and has tried to zig while the rest of the Capitol Press Corps zags. He's exposed unsavory political connections, uncovered waste in state government and has focused lately on little-known agencies that wield tremendous power.
Joseph has worked for newspapers in Sacramento and Palm Springs, and has had short stints or internships in Modesto; Omaha, Neb.; Lima, Ohio; and Columbia, Mo. He became one of the youngest winners of the George Polk Award for an investigation he co-authored while interning in Seattle.
Martin Wisckol's mother rallied for Barry Goldwater's presidential campaign and his father was an anti-Vietnam War organizer. The first story Wisckol sold was to Surfing magazine, followed by jazz articles to Downbeat. He still files an occasional surfing or jazz piece for the Register, but has been writing primarily about government and politics since 1985.
His first newspaper jobs were in his hometown of San Diego, followed by work in Detroit, Jacksonville (Florida), and Miami. Along the way, he has put in extended stints in Japan, South America and Switzerland. He became the Register's politics reporter in 1998, when he also took the lead for the weekly Buzz column. He lives in Huntington Beach.
His work has been honored by the Society of Professional Journalists, the National Headliner Awards, the California Newspaper Publishers Association, and the Florida Press Club, among others.

In 1944, the world community laid the groundwork for the establishment of the U.N. International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) in Montreal. ICAO' principal mission was to achieve international cooperation to ensure that the legal and regulatory regime governing aviation would be uniform across nations. One can imagine what a Tower of Babel international aviation would have become had ICAO's 188 current member states adopted differing legal rules and standards. Without a harmonious legal and regulatory regime, the development of international aviation and space would have been seriously impeded.
By its very nature, aviation shrinks the planet, integrating disparate cultures and economies, and facilitating peaceful, prosperous and cooperative global order. Globalization has created interdependence among nations and peoples of the world, and air transportation has facilitated that interdependence.
Recognizing the critical role that legal education would play in facilitating integration of legal standards globally, in 1951, McGill University established the Institute of Air & Space Law (IASL) to provide graduate legal education for students from around the world. In the ensuing half century, IASL has educated some 800 students from 120 countries. Today, our graduates hold some of the highest positions in international organizations, governmental air transport ministries, airlines, and law firms around the world.
The Mission Statement
The objectives of the Institute of Air & Space Law are to:
- Educate the next generation of air and space lawyers to serve the needs of the air and space community worldwide. The IASL's educational emphasis is graduate in character and international in scope. Since promulgation of the Warsaw Convention of 1929, the Chicago Convention of 1944, and the Outer Space Treaty of 1967, a guiding principle of both private and public international Air and Space Law has been to create a standard universal and ubiquitous legal regime. By sending the IASL graduates far and wide with a solid educational background, McGill has facilitated that important objective of worldwide law harmonization.
- Offer IASL students the best graduate education in Air and Space Law available anywhere in the world. Though the IASL has been teaching Air and Space Law at McGill University for more than half a century, the Institute constantly strives to improve its educational programme. It has designed a curriculum relevant to the needs of its graduates, to provide a base of relevant practical and theoretical information and analytical and communications skills to enable its graduates to perform their professional duties proficiently.
- Publish interdisciplinary research valuable to governmental and multinational institutions, the airline and aerospace industries, and the legal profession. Since 1976, the IASL Centre for Research in Air & Space Law has published the Annals of Air & Space Law as well as books, reports, studies, and conference proceedings; the IASL faculty publishes widely in other legal periodicals as well. Our faculty also assists international organizations and governmental institutions in their efforts to advance Air and Space Law and policy.
- Serve the professional educational needs of the aviation and space law bar. The IASL's workshops, conferences and seminars are attended by legal practitioners, government officials, industry leaders and professors from around the world. Over the years, the Institute has been visited by delegates from many nations seeking cutting edge information on emerging developments in Air and Space Law.
- Create a thriving intellectual environment and professional global network for the IASL faculty, students, graduates, and experts in the field. The IASL brings together some of the world's premiere experts in Air and Space Law under one roof for research, informal discussions, class lectures, seminars and conferences.

Three more Kindle tablets could spell trouble for Apple.
There are new reports, based on information coming from Taiwanese electronics manufacturers, that Amazon.com Inc. may be building three new Kindle tablets that would debut later this year. They would compliment Amazon's breakout first tablet, the Kindle Fire. Amazon reports it has sold millions of Kindle Fire tablets.
The device is the first real competitor to Apple Inc.'s market-dominating iPad. Like Apple, Amazon.com has created a mobile ecosystem around its tablet. The Fire comes connected to a user's Amazon account and, with a few taps, can buy a nearly endless supply of digital content from Amazon. The Kindle Fire and the iPad are designed for media consumption, and they come enmeshed in vast media empires.
This is where other tablet manufacturers have failed. None of their devices have come with a world all their own. And none of them have had retail and m-commerce powerhouses like Apple and Amazon behind them.
I believe three new Kindle tablets could score a direct hit on Apple because they would offer different sizes and prices and would live in the successful Amazon ecosystem. Reports say that one of the new Amazon tablets will have a high-resolution screen nearly nine inches in size. That comes very close to the iPad's 9.7-inch screen. If anyone can give Apple a run for its money, it's Amazon. And if reports are true, Amazon plans to do just that.
Just this morning I was talking with the director of marketing at e-retailer Gilt Groupe. He passed along a surprise: The company has built a Kindle Fire app. That's amazing news, as few retailers, so far, have focused on the Fire. All attention is on the iPad. But that soon may change if Amazon floods the market in 2012 with a load of new tablets.
Keep your eye on the Kindle Fire. It's become very popular. And keep your ear to the ground for rumblings of new tablets from Amazon. Just like Apple, it seems like anything Amazon touches turns to gold. So be prepared for a tablet war—and be ready to build two tablet apps, not just one.

Challenge for Changeby Michael Brendan Baker Ezra Winton Thomas Waugh
Pioneering participatory, social change-oriented media, the program had a national and international impact on documentary film-making, yet this is the first comprehensive history and analysis of its work. The volume's contributors study dozens of films produced by the program, their themes, aesthetics, and politics, and evaluate their legacy and the program's place in Canadian, Québécois, and world cinema. An informative and nuanced look at a cinematic movement, Challenge for Change reemphasizes not just the importance of the NFB and its programs but also the role documentaries can play in improving the world.
The Fruit Machine: Twenty Years of Writings on Queer Cinemaby Thomas Waugh John Greyson
For more than twenty years, film critic, teacher, activist, and fan Thomas Waugh has been writing about queer movies. As a member of the Jump Cut collective and contributor to the Toronto-based gay newspaper the Body Politic, he emerged in the late 1970s as a pioneer in gay film theory and criticism, and over the next two decades solidified his reputation as one of the most important and influential gay film critics. The Fruit Machine--a collection of Waugh's reviews and articles originally published in gay community tabloids, academic journals, and anthologies--charts the emergence and maturation of Waugh's critical sensibilities while lending an important historical perspective to the growth of film theory and criticism as well as queer moviemaking. In this wide-ranging anthology Waugh touches on some of the great films of the gay canon, from Taxi zum Klo to Kiss of the Spider Woman. He also discusses obscure guilty pleasures like Born a Man . . . Let Me Die a Woman, unexpectedly rich movies like Porky's and Caligula, filmmakers such as Fassbinder and Eisenstein, and film personalities from Montgomery Clift to Patty Duke. Emerging from the gay liberation movement of the 1970s, Waugh traverses crises from censorship to AIDS, tackling mainstream potboilers along with art movies, documentaries, and avant-garde erotic videos. In these personal perspectives on the evolving cinematic landscape, his words oscillate from anger and passion to wry wit and irony. With fifty-nine rare film stills and personal photographs and an introduction by celebrated gay filmmaker John Greyson, this volume demonstrates that the movie camera has been the fruit machine par excellence.
Lust Unearthedby Thomas Waugh
On the heels of his bestselling and award-winning book Out/Lines: Underground Gay Graphics From Before Stonewall, Thomas Waugh offers more historic and erotically charged drawings, depicting aspects of gay male sexuality that were once hidden from public view.<P> The more than 200, never-before-published images in Lust Unearthed are from the private collection of Ambrose DuBek, a Hollywood costume and set designer (his work included George Cukor's 1939 film The Women) who died in 2002 at the age of 87, and whose estate included a wealth of erotic materials, including books, periodicals, prints, and films. DuBek was a passionate advocate and patron of the arts who felt that life and the body were to be celebrated; he had no patience for other people's attempts to make him feel guilty for his attractions and desires, nor any qualms about the different worlds in which he operated. The images from DuBek's collection published here are remarkably frank and explicit depictions of gay men "in action" created by numerous artists both famous and unknown, and produced during a time when even nude images of men were illegal, and thus rare. Lust Unearthed brings these images out of the boxes in which they were carefully kept and into the light of present-day, where expressions of gay male sexuality can be validated and indeed, celebrated.<P> Waugh's text is a remarkable history lesson that illuminates a once-furtive underground culture. Gay porn for the thinking man, Lust Unearthed will beguile and arouse.<P> Features an introduction by Willie Walker, the founding archivist at the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender History Society in San Francisco, where DuBek's erotic materials were donated.
Montreal Main: A Queer Film Classicby Thomas Waugh Jason Garrison
A Queer Film Classic: a great Canadian indie film from 1974 that has become a cult classic, about a photographer living among various outcasts in the Montreal neighborhood known as the Main, who becomes obsessed with the teenaged son of friends.
The Perils of Pedagogyby Scott Mackenzie Thomas Waugh Brenda Longfellow
Whether addressing HIV/AIDS, the policing of bathroom sex, censorship, or anti-globalization movements, John Greyson has imbued his work with cutting humour, eroticism, and postmodern aesthetics. Mashing up high art, opera, community activism, and pop culture, Greyson challenges his audience to consider new ways that images can intervene in both political and public spheres. Emerging on the Toronto scene in the late 1970s, Greyson has produced an eclectic, provocative, and award-winning body of work in film and video. The essays in The Perils of Pedagogy range from personal meditations to provocative textual readings to studies of the historical contexts in which the artist's works intervened politically as well as artistically. Notable writers from a range of disciplines as well as prominent experimental and activist filmmakers tackle questions of documentary ethics, moving image activism, and queer coalitional politics raised by Greyson's work. Close to one hundred frame captures and stills from almost sixty works, along with articles, speeches, and short scripts by Greyson - several never before published - supplement the collection. Celebrating thirty years of passionate, brilliant, and affecting moviemaking, The Perils of Pedagogy will fascinate both specialists and general readers interested in media activism and advocacy, censorship, and freedom of expression.
Romance of Transgression in Canada: Queering Sexualities, Nations, Cinemasby Thomas Waugh

In Part One he explores the explosive canon of artists such as Norman McLaren, Claude Jutra, Colin Campbell, Paul Wong, John Greyson, Patricia Rozema, Lea Pool, Bruce Labruce, Esther Valiquette, Marc Paradis, and Mirha-Soleil Ross.

Kendall Jenner Lands Yet Another Vogue Cover This Month! (Forum Buzz)
Kendall Jenner continues to impress fashion editors across the globe, managing to secure Vogue covers on just about every continent. She was U.S. Vogue's September cover girl and recently starred on Vogue Japan and Vogue Australia, and now appears on the cover of Vogue Germany. With three major covers for the month of October (and counting), Kendall was once again captured by photographic duo Luigi & Iango and wears a mix of Miu Miu, Prada and Helmut Lang on German Vogue's newly-unveiled installment.
As per usual, the cover received a healthy amount of forum buzz the moment it dropped. "What the hell, did they seriously use a picture from the Vogue Japan shoot?" questioned Marc10 at once, recognizing some evident similarities between the two.
"Haha, it's an original shoot for them, I guess it speaks volumes. She is everywhere, at least Bella is more engaging. I don't even hate Kendall like so many around here, but it is getting to be too much seeing her on all the covers with such little modeling variation!" replied Miss Dalloway. (more…)
