The Quarterly Review of Biology or QRB is a scientific review of current and historical topics in biology as well as a source of book reviews. It was begun in 1926 by Raymond Pearl. In the 1960s, the Review was purchased by the Stony Brook Foundation when the editor H. Bentley Glass became academic vice president of the State University of New York at Stony Brook. It is currently published by the University of Chicago Press.

Can You Be Trusted?
All of us aspire to a higher level of trust in our relationships, our companies, and our lives. Yet, high trust levels frequently elude most organizations.
When moderately explored, trust suggests a certain comfort level that allows people to feel safe in their professional surroundings. Jon Luther, CEO of Dunkin Donuts (Brands) states "People earn their way out of trust". When explored more deeply, the impact of a trust-oriented environment can set a new bar for innovation and productivity.
Trust Defined
When trust is established, it reduces or eliminates the anxiety one might have about adverse reactions to one's actions. The reduction of anxiety introduces a fertile ground for people exploring new lines of thought which can ultimately make them more productive, more balanced and genuinely engaged in their work. Given the significant influence of our misplaced trust on the current economic crisis, the restoration of trust is critical to the rebuilding process and the resulting economic turnaround.
Business leaders must ensure that environments of trust are authentically established where people can speak up and experiment.
Trust is not a term to be wrapped up in a mission statement.
Instead, it must be mechanically and diligently nurtured in the organization and when performed properly, it will be adopted in a meaningful manner.
However, while the modeling of trust behaviors needs to be driven from the top, the front-line workers must engage as well. They must be willing to take managed risks and if trust is absent, little progress will be made. Employees should not have a blank check for experimentation due to an unending level of trust.
No, high trust environments stem from a culture of accountability and results and if these are absent, the business cannot thrive.
Trust In Action
At Microsoft, there are an extensive number of pockets within the company that not only have a trusting environment, but actively and passionately evolve the trust relationships across the company.
One team in particular, the QA folks in the Windows Security division, led by long-time Microsoft leader Ross Smith and wing-man, Mark Hanson, have landed squarely in the center of trust-based research and real-world applications. Are Ross and Mark responsible for Microsoft's global research on trust? No. They have their day jobs - which is to lead the team that helps to ensure a high quality experience using Windows Security features; an important and very high profile endeavor. The team is comprised of highly educated and experienced team members as well as the Generation Yers who are coming to the team from a number of highly reputed universities.
A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to chat with Ross, Mark and former colleague and now consultant, Robin Moeur.
They are collectively a very passionate group around the importance of trust in a professional environment. In fact, there has been so much interest in their efforts that they've actually spawned a public website dedicated to their cause titled www.42projects.org. The name emanates from "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy",written by Douglas Adams where the number "42" is ultimately defined as the universal truth. And while the initiative is oddly named, it has captured the spirit of the entire division as they all focus on building more trust within the company.
Their division is an impressive one in that they are individually and collectively very productive and really are a great representation of expertise and professionalism that you don't always find elsewhere. This is with intent as they hire the best of the best and focus on the issues of trust to improve the overall work experience. Smith cites the work of University of British Columbia researchers Helliwell and Wang "that a 10% increase in trust can lead to a 36% increase in job satisfaction." Measurable increases such as this are substantive and certainly piqued my interest.
With a conscious effort being focused on trust, the team is employing different techniques to put the theory to practice. One of the most innovative techniques being used is the inclusion of "productivity games" to solve a problem.
For example, a team member wanted to learn a new development technology by creating a prototype of a customer feedback game.
He connected with a fellow co-worker who was developing an idea for native language speakers which would help supplement the verification of international versions of Windows.
The two jointly worked together to build a mechanism where people can play games to help assess the accuracy of localized text strings in the numerous languages available in Windows international versions.
Additional examples included "bug bash" parties that go late into the night where the engineer who finds the most bugs gets a prize and an Olympic-themed work event held last year. Hanson commented, "Our culture is competitive. People by nature love to compete and play games and want to see themselves at the top of the leader board."
After discussing the importance of trust, Robin Moeur introduced some insightful work produced by Jonathan Winter, founder of Career Innovation. She spoke about his theory on "Conversation Gaps". The basic premise of Conversation Gaps is that a breakdown in communications often takes place when too much information gets left unsaid. The correlation with trust and the 42projects team is that if a higher level of trust is introduced, those gaps may lessen and this may accelerate more productive dialog. This issue of Conversation Gaps is a concern for all people; however, it is especially problematic for the overly nice guys.
Nice Guys And Trust
For the overly nice guys, Conversation Gaps are more frequent as they are overly concerned about hurting other people's feelings.
In my book, "Nice Guys Can Get The Corner Office,"we speak specifically about establishing a "Speak-Up" Environment. The underlying premise behind the concept is simply that an environment of trust must be established for people to speak up in meaningful and substantive ways. When this happens, people are more comfortable in expressing themselves and pursuing new ideas which can bolster their careers as well as their organization's success.
The problem with the overly nice guy is that if he/she feels that speaking up will adversely impact someone or something; they will typically avoid that line of thought as their concern for pleasing others will subsume their interest in pursuing new ideas. An environment of genuine trust where one can speak up without fear of reprisal is what can break down some of these barriers and help lead the Nice Guy to the corner office.

Travel Blogs from Hakodate
Rain won't spoil the fun
... the fort, which i was taken to by car by Yoshi one of the rider's at the house, who borrowed it from a friend, the garden around has a star fish shape which makes it quite different. Then we tucked in some ramen of course because that is the best dish ever! Yoshi knew a place nearby so we followed and it was good!
Rain won't spoil the fun
... it rained all day unfortunately. We wanted to go up the mountain but there was simply no view and so not worth the effort. All our pictures are taken with the go pro so as not to wet our multi million dollar camera ;-)

Bullet train and exploring historic Hakodate
... flooring and futon bedding (much more comfy than it may sound!). After a hot snack from 7-Eleven (which we now consider as good as an M&S Food for quality products in Japan!) we took the old tram to the docks. The fishing boats were all immaculate and we had an interesting walk through the small sea side town streets to the cemetery for Foreigners, where Russians and Europeans who died in Hakodate are remembered. Our walk continued up the steep streets passing ...
Gifts from the Sea
... up this morning, I felt like I had been gone for weeks. Truly, a gift from the sea! :o)
....And today, as I biked around Misawa, I came across what appears to be Japanese Glass Float heaven. Where, it seems, all the glass fishing floats go when they break from their nets :o( Yes, those are fishing floats hanging all the way around the yard. No wonder I can't find any.
Second day in Hakodate
After very good hotel breakfast,Japanese or Western,Tom,Anne and I went by train to Onuma national park for the morning.Only a 20 min journey.Keiko and Yoshika stayed in the city. It was chilly and damp in Onuma and most definitely out of season.We did a walk for an hour or so,by which time a lot more were arriving,mainly to hire cycles. In the afternoon we rested a bit then walked down to harbour area and had late lunch at ramen -noodle - place and ...

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Jermichael Finley is ready for the increased expectations that are sure to come with his increased salary.
The Green Bay Packers opted to pay their mercurial tight end a $3 million roster bonus rather than cut him by 4 p.m. EDT Monday afternoon. Though Finley swears he wasn't watching the clock, he took to Twitter shortly after the deadline passed, saying, "Ecstatic 2 b back w (at)packers. Best place on earth."
"It's a great opportunity to stay with a great organization and a great quarterback to move forward and win more championships," Finley told the (Milwaukee) Journal Sentinel. "I'm ready to take my game to another level. Every player wants to achieve as much as possible. In my case, I want to get back to what I know and that's playing great football."
The Packers have long been enamoured with Finley's size -- he's 6-foot-5 and 247 pounds -- speed and strength. Not only is he a big target for Aaron Rodgers, but he draws multiple defenders and can block just about anyone. He set a Packers record for receptions by a tight end last season, finishing with 61 catches for 676 yards and two touchdowns.
But there were some who wondered if his inconsistency early in the season made him expendable. Finley dropped numerous balls and complained about his role in the offence.
"I really felt Jermichael Finley was a different man, a different player from the bye week on," coach Mike McCarthy said after the Packers lost to San Francisco in the playoffs. "I feel very good about the way he finished the year. ... But we obviously have to look at the first half, too, and make sure that's part of the evaluation because we're all judged on 17 games."
Despite his increased price tag -- his salary this season will be $8.25 million -- Finley's youth and potential convinced the Packers he was worth keeping. Green Bay also couldn't afford to let another big piece of their offence go, having already lost top receiver Greg Jennings to rival Minnesota and tight end Tom Crabtree to Tampa Bay.
"I love the expectations that I have to meet this year," Finley said. "I have to make it happen."
Finley, who turned 26 on Tuesday, told the Journal Sentinel (http://bit.ly/YxN6Mf ) he learned from last year's up-and-down season. The approach he had in the second half of the season is the one he knows he'll need to have in the future.
"It's all about letting my play speak," he said. "It's all about letting my ability do its job. That's what I'm going to do this year and I guarantee I'll be relaxed and be the player I know I can be."
NOTES: The Packers signed kicker Giorgio Tavecchio. The former California kicker appeared in three preseason games for San Francisco last year, converting his only field goal attempt and two extra points.

Tensorial Electrokinetics in Articular Cartilage Biophysical Journal, Volume 91, Issue 6, 15 September 2006, Pages 2349-2355 Boris Reynaud and Thomas M. Quinn Abstract Electrokinetic phenomena contribute to biomechanical functions of articular cartilage and underlie promising methods for early detection of osteoarthritic lesions. Although some transport properties, such as hydraulic permeability, are known to become anisotropic with compression, the direction-dependence of cartilage electrokinetic properties remains unknown. Electroosmosis experiments were therefore performed on adult bovine articular cartilage samples, whereby fluid flows were driven by electric currents in directions parallel and perpendicular to the articular surface of statically compressed explants. Magnitudes of electrokinetic coefficients decreased slightly with compression (from ∼−7.5μL/As in the range of 0–20% compression to −6.0μL/As in the 35–50% range) consistent with predictions of microstructure-based models of cartilage material properties. However, no significant dependence on direction of the electrokinetic coupling coefficient was detected, even for conditions where the hydraulic permeability tensor is known to be anisotropic. This contrast may also be interpreted using microstructure-based models, and provides insights into structure-function relationships in cartilage extracellular matrix and physical mediators of cell responses to tissue compression. Findings support the use of relatively simple isotropic modeling approaches for electrokinetic phenomena in cartilage and related materials, and indicate that measurement of electrokinetic properties may provide particularly robust means for clinical evaluation of cartilage matrix integrity.

Impact of Chemical and Structural Anisotropy on the Electrophoretic Mobility of Spherical Soft Multilayer Particles: The Case of Bacteriophage MS2 Biophysical Journal, Volume 94, Issue 8, 15 April 2008, Pages 3293-3312 Jérémie Langlet, Fabien Gaboriaud, Christophe Gantzer and Jérôme F.L. Duval Abstract We report a theoretical investigation of the electrohydrodynamic properties of spherical soft particles composed of permeable concentric layers that differ in thickness, soft material density, chemical composition, and flow penetration degree. Starting from a recent numerical scheme developed for the computation of the direct-current electrophoretic mobility (μ) of diffuse soft bioparticles, the dependence of μ on the electrolyte concentration and solution pH is evaluated taking the known three-layered structure of bacteriophage MS2 as a supporting model system (bulk RNA, RNA-protein bound layer, and coat protein). The electrokinetic results are discussed for various layer thicknesses, hydrodynamic flow penetration degrees, and chemical compositions, and are discussed on the basis of the equilibrium electrostatic potential and hydrodynamic flow field profiles that develop within and around the structured particle. This study allows for identifying the cases where the electrophoretic mobility is a function of the inner structural and chemical specificity of the particle and not only of its outer surface properties. Along these lines, we demonstrate the general inapplicability of the notions of zeta potential (ζ) and surface charge for quantitatively interpreting electrokinetic data collected for such systems. We further shed some light on the physical meaning of the isoelectric point. In particular, numerical and analytical simulations performed on structured soft layers in indifferent electrolytic solution demonstrate that the isoelectric point is a complex ionic strength-dependent signature of the flow permeation properties and of the chemical and structural details of the particle. Finally, the electrophoretic mobilities of the MS2 virus measured at various ionic strength levels and pH values are interpreted on the basis of the theoretical formalism aforementioned. It is shown that the electrokinetic features of MS2 are to a large extent determined not only by the external proteic capsid but also by the chemical composition and hydrodynamic flow permeation of/within the inner RNA-protein bound layer and bulk RNA part of the bacteriophage. The impact of virus aggregation, as revealed by decreasing diffusion coefficients for decreasing pH values, is also discussed. Abstract | Full Text | PDF (743 kb) |
Simulation of concentration polarization in electrokinetic processes by network thermodynamic methods Biophysical Journal, Volume 55, Issue 3, 1 March 1989, Pages 527-535 J. Horno, C.F. González-Fernández, A. Hayas and F. González-Caballero Abstract Simple techniques of network thermodynamics are used to study the influence of concentration polarization on the determination of electrokinetic properties of physical and biological membrane systems. A network model of the polarization phenomenon resulting from discontinuities in transport numbers between the membrane and their adjacent solutions is proposed. The concentration profiles and potential drop across the membrane in plugs of monodisperse polystyrene particles and in giant algal cells have been simulated using the electrical circuit simulation program SPICE.

The flow of the blood past the vascular wall gives rise to an electrical potential. This field is calculated to have a periodic waveform with a transluminal peak-to-peak amplitude of approximately 1.35 V/m-1. Digital imaging fluorescent microscopy was used to measure changes in the membrane potentials of smooth muscle cells by following changes in the fluorescence of the potential sensitive dye, 3,3'-dipropyloxacarbocyanine iodide (di-O-C5[3]). The effect of the low level electrical field on the membrane potentials of cultured smooth muscle vascular cells was shown to cause a steady-state depolarization of approximately 10 mV. The degree of steady-state depolarization was shown to directly vary with the frequency of the applied field and the effect was not dependent on the presence of extracellular Ca+2 or Mg+2. These effects are though to be most consistent with an electroconformational coupling mechanism. The presence of this electrokinetic field was also shown to alter the electrophysiological response of smooth muscle cells treated with 5-hydroxytryptamine. Cells exposed concurrently to both 5-HT and the electrical field showed an increased membrane depolarization thus implying that the electrokinetic field may be important in both normal and pathologic cellular responses.

In LaunchTrends®: Incivek and Victrelis, BioTrends surveyed a total of 80 physicians (gastroenterologists, hepatologists, and infectious disease specialists) about their current perceptions, early experience and anticipated future use of these products. In addition, feedback around patient type, product satisfaction, obstacles to use, and promotional activities by Merck/Roche and Vertex is captured.
Not surprisingly, with the long-awaited anticipation of the new protease inhibitors, unaided awareness and familiarity is extremely high at one month post launch and more than half of surveyed participants have already initiated trial with Incivek or Victrelis. Trial rates do vary by physician specialty, but among physicians that have prescribed these agents, most are experimenting with both brands.
About 80% of surveyed physicians report seeing either a Victrelis or Incivek representative. Among those who have not seen a representative, the majority indicate that they would like to be called on, indicating the desire by practitioners for more information about these products.
Physicians report a high number of eligible patients for the new protease inhibitors, both in newly diagnosed patients and for a large base of patients that have been awaiting the approval of Incivek and Victrelis. Market share projections in the next six months suggest that Incivek will claim a significant share advantage over Victrelis.
About LaunchTrends
LaunchTrends®: Incivek and Victrelis is a series of three post-launch syndicated reports designed to track the uptake of Merck's Victrelis and Vertex's Incivek at one month, three months and six months following launch. LaunchTrends® assesses trial and use of new products, barriers to use, reasons to use, typical patient types, line of therapy, product perceptions, promotional efforts/messages and product satisfaction.
In the current wave of research, which measures INCIVEK's and VICTRELIS' market impact at one month post launch, BioTrends surveyed 80 physicians and conducted qualitative interviews with a subset of 20 of the respondents in July 2011. BioTrends will continue to track the uptake of both agents in follow up waves, which will be published in September and December 2011.

It's been said that it's not an adventure until something goes wrong, but if you're going to leave aspects of your trip up to chance, the route shouldn't be one of them. Thankfully for you, there's the Garmin Oregon 650T GPS. With a three-inch color touchscreen and a customizable interface, you'll have all the information you need to stick to your route right at your fingertips. There's an eight megapixel camera, which not only takes crisp images, but it geostamps them, allowing you or a friend to find the exact location where the picture was taken. What separates the 650T from the 650 is that it comes pre-loaded with U. S. Topo 100k maps, for highly detailed information about the terrain no matter where you are. If you're really seeking adventure, let something other than the route be the issue. After all, it's better to get stranded at your destination, then be lost some place you really don't want to be in the first place.The 3-inch backlit color screen is protected by the Oregon's rugged body. Not only is it glove-friendly, it's easily visible in sunny conditions. In addition to the included worldwide basemap, the Oregon 650T comes pre-loaded with U. S. Topo 100k maps. You can also load BlueChart marine maps, CityNavigator maps, and Custom Maps via the MicroSD port. If you still need more information, you can download BirdsEye satellite images, and overlay them on your map. Waypoints can be selected off of the mapping feature, or by importing them wirelessly from compatible devices. It's easy to save, modify, and index your routes for future trips. Your waypoints and routes can be shared wirelessly with other users of compatible Garmin GPS devices. By downloading a geocaching . GPX file, you'll have access to hidden caches, for more options on your next outing. Furthermore, you can select different trip profiles for a number of activities, which helps you to organize your information between recreation, driving, boating, and training.

TASCAM releases new stereo mic for iDevices
By Ben Coxworth
November 23, 2011
With the various aftermarket lenses that have become available for the iPhone recently, it's easy to forget that the smartphone is capable of recording not only video, but also audio. Should you not want to be limited by its single bottom-mounted condenser mic, however, what choices are there? Well, you can play reporter and get a handheld condenser, or as of this Monday, you can now pick up TASCAM's iM2 Stereo Microphone for iPad, iPhone and iPod touch.
As its full name implies, the iM2 produces a stereo signal, via two condenser mics - each one can be independently swiveled 180 degrees. It plugs into the iDevice's dock connector, taking its power from the device's battery. A USB input gives users the option of powering the phone/mic via a cable-attached computer, or using TASCAM's optional power adapter.
Because the iM2 has its own preamp (instead of just relying on the iPhone's), it can handle noise levels up to 125 decibels without distortion. It also features an audio limiter, to keep from overmodulating when subjected to sudden loud sounds. Additionally, users can manually ride their audio input levels, via a side-mounted thumbwheel control.
The iM2 Stereo Microphone is available now, for US$79. Serious iPhone shooters who don't mind parting with almost twice as much more money might also want to check out the similar-but-fancier Fostex AR-4i audio interface for iPhone 4.

None of the picture show the mics being swiveled at all.
Also, does this work with the latest gen of iPod touch, because the body is slightly different from the iPhone?

Cyberwarfare evolves faster than rules of engagement
Strict definitions of warfare are elusive when actors include nation-states, criminals and rogue actors
IDG News Service - As the rhetoric heats up over cyberwar -- including warnings that attacks on the U.S. are imminent and alarms that the U.S. has escalated the risk via malware attacks on Iran's nuclear program -- the rules of engagement are missing in action.
The current framework of international law and treaties doesn't adequately address cyberconflict, Jody Westby, CEO of Global Cyber Risk, said Monday at the Techonomy 12 conference.
Westby said that customary international law should be extended into the cyber domain and define a certain amount of a nation's critical infrastructure that should be "declared sacred and off limits for attack." She also argued that there should be an agreement outlawing "irregular forces," which in this context would include botnets.
But other members of a panel at the conference, being held in Tucson, Arizona, argued that the virtual and covert nature of cyberattacks make it difficult to trace them and hold actors responsible.
"Defining what's legitimate and what's not legitimate is easier said than done," said RSA executive chairman Art Coviello. And defining actions as war is problematic, especially given that nations have spied on each other "forever."
"When does spying end and economic warfare begin? And when does spying end and actual warfare begin?" Coviello asked.
And the players differ as well, Coviello added. "We're used to having wars between and among nation-states. Where does criminal behavior end and warlike behavior begin?"
Cybercriminals have a big-data problem, Coviello said: They possess more credentials than they can monetize. And they can make more money selling credentials from an executive at a defense contractor than they would by attacking that individual's bank account.
Among nation-states there is an emerging de facto understanding of the tit-for-tat rules of warfare: "You take out my power grid, and I take out your dam." But when malicious actors are also criminals, "hacktivists" and terrorists, these groups won't abide by these rules, Coviello said.
Coviello's concern now is the evolution from intrusion to disruption, as with the recent distributed denial-of-service attacks on New York banks.
While the U.S. military has a cybercommand, it's currently constrained from protecting entities outside of the .mil domain, Westby said.
And in the midst of concern over cyberattacks taking the form of economic warfare, lack of cooperation between business and government is also a problem, said John Kao, chairman of the Institute for Large Scale Innovation.
"There's an issue of trust; if I'm a company and I get hacked or robbed, I may or may not be totally forthcoming about what happened. There's the question of how to create rules of engagement for collaboration that don't exist," Kao said. "There's been crescendoing attacks against U.S. financial institutions, and CyberCom monitors this, but the rules of engagement in terms of how it communicates with the commercial sector haven't been defined."
While the panelists decried fear-mongering by politicians and warnings of a "cyber Pearl Harbor," Coviello referred back to a famous quote by Nicholas Negroponte calling the Internet both overhyped and underestimated. Cyberwarfare may be overhyped relative to the risk posed by a bad actor with a nuclear or biological weapon, but he warned that we may underestimate the extent to which a cyberattack could disrupt confidence, and by extension the economy.

The Penalty Flag:
It is normal for rookie wide receivers to struggle; not everyone has a break out season like A.J. Green. Mohamed Sanu showed his versatility and emerged as a red-zone threat when he started to come on late in the season before suffering a stress fracture during practice. Before the injury Sanu had four touchdown catches in the past three weeks and looked to be the dual threat the Bengals need.The Bengals know a thing or two about drafting top talent at the wide receiver position and in 2013 Mohamed Sanu could be just what A.J...

For the new healthcare reform act everyone who wants to apply for a federal subsidy must have a tax return from tax year 2012. When the federal exchanges open in October of 2013 you can apply to get a federal subsidy to help pay your insurance costs if you purchase health insurance through the exchange. If you do not have health insurance for tax season 2013 you will get a penalty from both the state of Massachusetts and the Federal government. These penalties could be hundreds of dollars from each tax authority.

What was interesting in this case is that they were able to process is charge w/o address verification but when (after customer's approval) I had to charge a small amount extra for shipping, it declined the same card on AVS no match. We've had other cases (international orders) where us manually adding the extra shipping onto a customers card did not affect how AVS was handled. I don't know who (what system/subsystem/entities) actually does the AVS, but it looks like somewhere along the line there is an inconsistency in when AVS gets invoked. Who makes that decision for a card (e.g. is it Authorize.net) and why would the decision (international vs non-international) vary when it can be demonstrated (documented issuing financial institution) that the card is outside the US? We are OK with how AVS is handled in the US, it's just the international orders / international cards that we'd like AVS to keep its "paws" OFF!
The most recent example where this happened, the purchaser was in Australia with the card issuer being in GB. All is legit and the customer has purchased before.
