Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK or MSKCC) is a cancer treatment and research institution founded in 1884 as the New York Cancer Hospital. The main campus is located at 1275 York Avenue, between 67th and 68th Streets, in Manhattan New York City. MSK has long been a leader in cancer surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy and is the world's largest and oldest dedicated cancer hospital. It was the first to develop services specifically dedicated to the psychiatric aspects of cancer, to the relief of cancer pain, and to genetic counseling. As of 2013, U.S. News & World Report ranks MSK as the #2 cancer hospital in the country.
Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center is composed of two intimately related institutions: Memorial Hospital for Cancer and Allied Diseases provides patient care, and Sloan Kettering Institute is focused on basic-science research.
Memorial Hospital was founded in 1884 as the New York Cancer Hospital by a group that included John Jacob Astor and his wife Charlotte; the hospital was originally located on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. The hospital was later renamed General Memorial Hospital for the Treatment of Cancer and Allied Diseases.
In 1936, the hospital began its move to its present location on York Avenue when John D. Rockefeller, Jr., donated the land. In 1939, construction of Memorial Hospital was completed. The current Physician-In-Chief is José Baselga, MD, PhD.
The Sloan Kettering Institute was established in 1945 with a US$4 million gift from the foundation of Alfred P. Sloan, Jr. Half the gift was to fund construction of a 13-story research facility and the other half to provide annual operating expenses. Charles F. Kettering, vice president and director of research for General Motors Corporation, was to organize and apply modern American industrial research techniques to cancer research.
The first director was Cornelius P. Rhoads.
In addition to the Sloan grant, a public campaign to raise an additional $3–4 million was undertaken. Laurance Rockefeller, an important financier and philanthropist of the prominent Rockefeller family, became an important leader in donations and fundraising.
At the August 8, 1945, announcement about the research institute, Sloan and Kettering emphasized that the dramatic news of the atomic bomb, developed with a US$2 billion research program, was a powerful example of what can be accomplished by scientifically organized research as practiced by American industry. If as much money and talented personnel were available as the government had for the atomic bomb, they said, very rapid progress could be made in cancer research.
The Memorial Sloan Kettering Bendheim Integrative Medicine Center occupies 1425 First Avenue on the corner of East 74th Street. The former bank was built in the 1930s by Perkins and Will as architects. It was remodeled for use by Memorial Sloan-Kettering in 1997.[2]
As of November 1, 2010, the President and CEO of Memorial Sloan Kettering is the oncologist and researcher Craig B. Thompson, MD.[3]
As of 2014, the organization officially removed the hyphen between Sloan and Kettering from its name.
Charity Watch rates Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center an "A." Heads of the charity received $1,955,000 to $2,557,000 salary/compensation from the charity. Harold Varmus, M.D. Past President/CEO, received $2,557,403 salary/compensation from the charity, which is the most money given by any charity to the head of that charity, according to Charity Watch.[4]
MSK has long been a leader in cancer surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. It was the first to develop services specifically dedicated to the psychiatric aspects of cancer, to the relief of cancer pain, and to genetic counseling.
As of 2013, U.S. News & World Report ranks MSK as the #2 cancer hospital in the country.[5]
Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center is affiliated with the Weill Cornell Medical College, the Tri-Institutional MD/PhD program and the Tri-Institutional Training Program in Chemical Biology, which include MSK as one of its three sites (along with Weill-Cornell and Rockefeller University). MSK and Weill-Cornell operate a joint graduate program in biomedical sciences, the Weill Cornell Graduate School of Medical Sciences. In 2004, Memorial Sloan Kettering also established an independent graduate school, with a PhD. program in cancer biology: the Gerstner Sloan Kettering Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences. The inaugural class was admitted in July 2006. The first graduates received their PhD degrees in 2012.
Memorial Sloan-Kettering's Human Oncology and Pathogenesis Program, based at Memorial Hospital, focuses on translational research, with the goal of bringing discoveries made in the lab to the patient at the bedside.
Another focus of research at Memorial Sloan Kettering is immunotherapy, or using the body's own immune system to fight cancer cells. In 2006, the center was one of six institutes (along with research centers at Harvard University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Johns Hopkins University, the University of Chicago, and Stanford University) selected to receive a US$20 million grant for cancer research from the Ludwig Fund, created by the American billionaire Daniel K. Ludwig. The grant, one of the largest earmarked for cancer research the hospital has ever received, will be used for immunology research.
Patient care[edit]
There are 470 beds at Memorial Hospital and 24,598 patients were admitted in 2012. As well, 541,474 outpatient visits were accommodated at its Manhattan and regional facilities combined. Memorial Sloan Kettering opened a new surgical center in the summer of 2006 with 21 operating rooms. MSK's Brooklyn Infusion Center offers a "chemo-ready" model of patient care where patients have screening performed at the Manhattan facilities and then receive chemotherapy treatment at the Brooklyn Center, saving patient's time and providing more personalized care closer to home.[6] The Brooklyn Infusion Center, designed by ZGF Architects LLP, opened in 2010 and was awarded a 2011 Modern Healthcare Award of Excellence.[7]
In popular culture[edit]
Robin Quivers mentions on the Howard Stern show, how she got surgery at MSK, and the great care she received when she beat cancer in 2013.
In music[edit]
- Vampire Weekend's song "A-Punk" made a reference to Memorial Sloan Kettering in one verse, saying:
- "A thousand years in one piece of silver,
- she took it from his lily-white hand,
- showed no fear—she'd seen the thing,
- in the young men's wing at Sloan–Kettering."
- The Antlers's album Hospice features a song entitled "Kettering" and features a number of references to the cancer ward.
In film[edit]
- In the 2008 movie Step Brothers, Will Ferrell's character Brennan Huff claims to have smoked marijuana with Johnny Hopkins and Sloan Kettering.
- In the 1993 television film docudrama And the Band Played On, a male patient with Kaposi's sarcoma is seen being treated at Memorial Sloan Kettering.
In television[edit]
- In the 2001 series The Sopranos episode "Second opinion," Corrado Soprano seeks a second opinion on his cancer treatment from MSK.
- n the 13th episode of the television series House entitled "Cursed," Dr. Rowan Chase (played by Patrick Bauchau) mentions that he has been to MSK for his stage 4 lung cancer.
- In the 59th episode of the television series The West Wing entitled Dead Irish Writers Sam Seaborn asks Dalton Millgate whether there's any hope of treating Millgate's non-Hodgkin lymphoma, mentioning Sloan Kettering as a possibility.

Acura RL Tires and Wheels
spicymikey Posts: 75Ross I'm in the same boat. Looking at RL's. Love teh CMBS package but hate the PAX. Not sure where you are but I did research in Orlando and here's what I found.
- None of the 3 Acura dealers have the equipment
- 2 Honda dealers have the changer but they don't carry Acura RL tires (245/680's)
- 1 Tire Kingdom has tires and the machine
- All want about $300 per tire plus about $100 to install
Bottom line; I don't think it's as bad as it has been in the last couple years (be careful a lot of postings you read on the web might be old). However, it's definitely not a good situation. Honda/Acura is being stupid to not make the PAX an option by itself. I'm sure they're loosing sales. In fact a class action suit was just filed in March against Honda and Michelin over these tires. It's a mess. I've decided to stay away until I see if the '08 models get "de-paxed". if so, I'll buy the CMBS package. -
carfan28 Posts: 43The other problem is that there aren't that many RL CMBS/PAX models being produced. If you want the RL TECH package you could easily find the color exterior/interior you want, if you want the CMBS/PAX model you'll have to settle for whatever color they happen to have. At my NJ dealer they receive 5 RL techs for every CMBS/PAX they receive.
I've used the CMBS on the RL and the M35- not impressed. The M sales rep was very specific on how to turn it off- apparently Infiniti receives many complaints about all the false warnings. -
frank52 Posts: 1My 2005 Honda Touring Odyssey with PAX tires is the worst purchase I have ever made. This is the most costly vehicle I have ever owned. What a problem getting the tires and the cost is huge. No spare came with this vehicle. At the time of purchasing, I was told the tires would not cost much more that regular tire and the cost would come down because more vehicles would have them, I have spent a lot of money on tire replacement. This will be my last HONDA. Will probably bite the bullet and trade soon.
cstiles Posts: 465The OEM Michelin HX MXM4 tires cost $238 each on Tire Rack. Two better choices would be the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S at $223 or the Dunlop SP Sport 5000 Asymmetrical at $180. Any of these can be shipped by Tire Rack to a reputable intaller and you can save at least $100 or more.

laurasdada Posts: 2,441I purchased Toyo Versados for my '05 TL. Smoother, quieter than the Bridgestone Turnaza OEM. But, appear to be worse in the snow, so for the first time in my 30 years of driving FWD cars, I bought snow tires.
Of course, here in Boston, prior to buying the snows: Almost 2.5 feet of snow. Since buying the snow tires: less than an inch of snow. Now that I've made the large, unexpected purchase it may never snow in Boston again... :sick:'13 Jaguar XF. Which took the place of a much loved '09 Jaguar XK. Which was a mid-life crisis replacement for a fabulous '05 Acura TL (pre-beak and somewhat overwrought styling, imo). Which replaced a Chrysler (!) 300M. Which was the first domestic car I've ever purchased, and gave me hope for the domestics as it was a fine car. Not terribly well screwed together, but reliable. Nothing fell off, never a real issue. High praise indeed.
TheWop Posts: 5We bought a "new" RL--an 06 bought in 07 from the dealer, a "demo" with all the bells and whistles (It had 5,000 miles on it, but we got it for a "steal" compared to the sticker price. OOOOO--PAX tires, whatever that is--the f'ing car has no spare tire...ehem, there is a lawsuit pending over the whole PAX tire system (only on RLs and Honda Odysseys)
No spare tire kits are available at the dealers here in the San Joaquin Valley--they don't even have a part number to order it...America's Tire Company has four tires available mounted, balanced, etc., for $1875. Hell, the Car is barely worth more than that.
"Run flat" tires are supposed to be able to carry the vehicle up to 100 miles on a flat tire. Gee, some shortsighted emngineer somewhere seems to think that there is a PAX tire busting station within 100 miles of anywhere.
Anyhow, some wiseguy lawyer firm has gotten Honda Acura to agree to the following tentative settlement (after you have put out the money, it's a maybe): $110.00 if you show proof that you paid $108.00 for a spare tire kit for the PAX. $300 to $400 if you purchased another Honda Acura vehicle.
Such a deal! I wanna buy another RL.... -
TheWop Posts: 5My suggestion--get regular tires--you'll save quite a bit...however, the problem--same as before--NO SPARE...(:--((
I will NEVER again buy a run flat tire system in my life--more because of lack of a spare than the higher price--I always picture myself out in the middle of nowhere--with--a flat tire and no spare. BOO on Acura and Honda for this boondoggle. -
cbrose Posts: 6OK, I'm new to the forum because I picked up an '06 RL last week. Love the car! The technology is great, it has only 25,000 miles and is in fantastic condition. Before I bought it, I had test driven this car around some local roads and did take it on the highway, which, at that time, didn't cause me any concern. However, after driving from the Philly suburbs to Long Island and back this weekend, my ears are killing me! The road noise on various surfaces was, frankly, unbearable. My '05 MDX is as quiet as a cathedral compared to the RL! What gives? All the review spoke about how quiet this car was and that it has the active Bose noise dampening. Not mine: I think the noise was actually echoing around the inside of the car. I could barely hear the radio. So, I'm guessing that it's not the car's sound-proofing but the Michelin tires that are the culprit. From all that I've read here, these tires basically suck for road noise once they get some miles on them. Sadly, my tires are in great shape.
But, I'm so disgusted with the road noise, I'm ready to shell out >$500 for some quite driving. Here are my questions:
1. Are the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S and Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus the tires of choice on this car as a replacement (I will be driving in a little winter snow)?
2. What else will give me a quite and fairly responsive ride without breaking the bank?
3. Lastly, has anyone tried to add more sound dampening materials to either the outer wheel wells or inner wheel wells (trunk space and/or behind rear seat carpeting)? I did a search for sound dampening and it looks like there are a number of people who are into audio sound that have experimented with increasing the sound dampening in the wheel wells and trunk with some success. Should this be necessary on a $50,000 (new) car? -
nebraskaguy Posts: 341At JJAcura's recommendation, I replaced the tires on my 2005 RL with Bridgestone Turanza Serenity. Immediately afterwards I took a 500-mile drive. They are far quieter than the Michelins that came on my RL. Since most of the trip was freeway driving in good weather, I can't attest to his comments regarding handling, but on most of the surfaces during the trip, the tires were nearly totally silent. A big improvement! They are not cheap, though, unless you order them over the internet.
cbrose Posts: 6nebraskaguy,
Thanks for the reply. As you can tell, I'm looking for peace and quiet in a performance tire. The reviews at tirerack.com (http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Bridgestone&tireModel=Turanza+- Serenity&vehicleSearch=true&fromCompare1=yes&partnum=45VR7TS) give it very good ratings on ride and noise comfort, with decent snow capabilities. Tread design doesn't look as aggressive as the Pilots but that might be a good thing regarding road noise. -
cmhsec1 Posts: 1I just purchased a 06 RL with 50K miles on it, with some miles left on the Michelins. The highway road noise coming off of the tires is unbearable in all but newly paved highways. Now that you have had the Bridgestone Turanza Serenity tires for a couple of months, how is the noise? Thanks.
Chris -
cbrose Posts: 6cmhsec1,
I actually didn't get new tires. I made some adjustments in the air pressure of my tires and that made a huge difference. Very bearable now. The manual says to run 30 psi in the fronts and 32 psi in the rear. I'm running about 32 all around and it's much quieter than before. I'm going to go as long as I can before I shell out $700.00 for tires. But when I do, it will most likely be either the Bridgestones or Toyos. I've heard good things about both on this car. -

jensad Posts: 388
jjacura Posts: 808Interesting to note how quiet the various Acura RL forums are these days. This was the only forum that has recent posts. Maybe it's time for a new distinctive RL design to come forward and create some excitement!!! As it is the redesigns have given me pause thus far. I don't want to leave Acura after all these years but I will continue to drive the 2005 until they give us something to get excited about!!! I have a long time Acura friend who hasn't left the "fold" as yet but he too is very disappointed. I do however continue to be very happy with the 2005. Still love the design and the performance so far has been unequaled by any auto I have owned over the last 50 years. Like all good things however it won't last forever and I am looking forward to some better Acura designs. The Bridgestones were a good move. (Good to see Nebraskaguy as well)

Half-time Tapas: Prawns with Cheese served with Majorcan Tomato Bread - Unlive - WaitroseTapas makes great lap-food, and these two are perfect partners. The Spanish names for these two recipes are: gambas de queso and pamboli (a Majorcan speciality). The advance preparation is quite simple, and the whole thing can be ready in a flash at half-time |
Serves 2 Adapted from Delia's How to Cheat at Cooking |
MethodFirst bake the bread for about 20 minutes until crisp and golden. Now skin the tomatoes (1 minute in boiling water and the skin will slip off easily), then cut them into quarters. Place them in a mini chopper together with the garlic, olive oil and some seasoning, and simply whizz to a purée (a stick blender will do this easily, too). Now empty it into a sieve set over a bowl and let the excess liquid drain off for the duration of the first half. Then, for the prawns: drain off any liquid and put them into a medium-sized bowl. Crush the jalapeno peppers through a garlic crusher, followed by the garlic, and toss them together with the prawns, lemon juice, olive oil and seasoning. Next arrange the drained grilled peppers in a shallow heatproof dish and pile the prawns on top. Cut the cheese into cubes, then whizz in the mini chopper to 'grate' it, and sprinkle it over the prawns. Cover with clingfilm and pop it in the fridge until you need it. About half an hour into the match (perhaps while there's a goal kick or similar) turn the grill onto its highest setting. At half-time pop the prawns under the grill (10cm from the heat) until the cheese is melted and bubbling and beginning to turn golden on top – about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, split the baguette lengthways, spread the tomato pulp on, season and top with the Paleta Ibérico and some basil leaves. Serve the grilled prawns on warm plates with the bread on one side.

Hello, I would like to suggest a Milligan work that has not been mentioned yet in this thread:
The Bronx kill a black&white Original Graphic Novel published under the Vertigo Crime imprint.
I found it pretty good, and for sure one of the best, if not best, book of the Vertigo Crime collection.
Just keep in mind this is a "noir" story, there is deep characters psychology but not the psychedelic side you may love and serch in Milligan work.
Last edited by Pralaya; 11-14-2012 at 01:05 AM. Reason: Grammatical correction
Hello and nice of you to come here!
I always assumed while Milligan (and Morrison and others like them) might have their eccentric behaviors and beliefs, that they would be very calm and easy to talk to.
So, what was his speech about?
Also, I would LOVE to visit other countries' comic convention.

Read the Bronx Kill. It was a nice read. Should read the rest of the Vertigo Crime novels (only read three so far).
Hi, and thank you for your welcome.
Unfortunately I had not opportunity to partecipate Milligan speeches, because during the first one I was at work, and he refused to do the second one because we were only 5 audience... sad but true.
I can say when I talked to him personally he seemed genuinely pleased to speak with a fan of him.
To be honest I can't remember exatly how the chat went, my memory is not very strong, he only informed me about the new reprint of the collection of the first numbers of Shade.
If one day you will have the opportunity to visit an Italian Comic Convention I will recommend Napoli Comic Con, it is usually considered the convention with the higher cultural impact.
Anyway the italian comic book market is totally different from the US one: we have not pinned 20-32 pages comic books. Even DC/Vertigo, Marvel, Image material localized is all TPB.
I buy digital comics in english on Comixology, Dark Horse Digital and Viz Manga since years, still I have the same attitude: I wait until a story arc will end before buying the single issues;
I barely remember what I had for lunch yesterday so I take no pleasure in reading a story arc in 2-6 months, 24 pages a month, I will not remember anything, it will end only be frustrating.
Also in Italy we have a huge publisher, Sergio Bonelli Editore, who sells especially in newsagents, I guess this is strange enough for the US Market.
You may have heard some famous Sergio Bonelli character like the western hero Tex, or the paranormal investigator Dylan Dog.
They sold hundreds of thousands of copies each only in Italy, in newsagents... odd, isn't it.
I don't read Sergio Bonelli comics anymore because I can't stand they predictable, rethorical storytelling;
by the way usually the format is: almost 100 pages a month (a complete story), black&white, about €3... it's cheap, and it works for the italians.

God! I hope this comes out soon.
Actually, an omnibus or deluxe hardcover version for the series would work.
I'm a huge fan of European format and I wish American comic would just fucking transfer to that. A lot of the stories (American) nowadays are built for that format and reading a single arc last for a few months irks me. This is especially true when the arc itself is read better as a whole than in parts.
While there are comics using that format, there's not enough comics doing it. OR make it in magazine form (e.g. Heavy Metal, 2000AD, Pilote, À Suivre) so I can get more bang for my buck.
I've never read Bonelli but I have read Dylan Dog.
I enjoyed Dog, was a bit dated but still entertaining.

Question for you guys since you are fans of Milligan, what's your thoughts on Greek Street? I've been trying to read different Vertigo titles and this one came on the radar. There's not much talk about it from places I've been to so I'm not sure what to make of it. What you guys think?
Hi, I have read Greek Street years ago, when it came out, I have the complete series in TPB localized for the italian market, so it is translated (this could be important, because sometime translators do a terrible job, indeed right now I only read original material).
Unfortunately my judgment on Greek Street is not positive, but mind you it is only my opinion.
Also I have the feeling that during the end it becomes a mess, probably because they forced Milligan to interrupt the series so he has to close the story in 1-2 issues, but I have not evidence to confirm this.
The art is good but not as good as I espected: the majority of the series is drawn by an italian artist Davide Gianfelice, usually his strandars are higher.
So I would not recommend you Greek Street, but this is only my opinion, wait somebody else vision here on this forum.
Of course if you find it for a cheap price in TPB, maybe pre-owned, you may take it and build your own ideas about this comic.

Free standard shipping on full-size orders $50+
This nail polish stays on for a long time! The color I got was in Jane. It is the perfect color nude! It goes with everything and the polish dries very quickly.
Liked this product overall. I bought the gold one and it was fun and shimmery. I would have like a stronger gold color, you have to put on a few coats for it to not look so silvery. It did chip after a day which was a little disappointing, but I did reapply and have it on for a week or so. Didn't change my nail color in that time, which is a plus.
I LOVE this nail polish. Not only was the color and coverage great, but NO chipping on my pedicure and easily removed. I found this to be of a much higher quality than the usual *very popular* brands I buy.
I don't think this lasted any longer without chips than what I buy at the local drugstore. But I do love the colors they offer and it goes on smoothly.
I'm a victim of Ballet Slippers and other brands, so this month's neutral nail polish surprise was perfect for my collection. Keep 'em coming!
I had to write a review because I used this same polish before. I absolutely love the color as well as quality! a definite must have for any season.
I loved this color! It was the perfect shade and was easy to apply. It was not streaky. It was a very deep rich blue. I did not like the bottle shape, but overall it was great!
I bought the dark maroon color. Love the color, but the polish chipped almost immediately and didn't last over 2 days.
I was slightly disappointed with this product. Someone I knew spoke very highly of it, but it wasn't what I was expecting. I purchased two different colors and neither of them looked the same on as the bottle color. Also the brush fell out of the lid in one of the bottles, and I found this super annoying.
Nothing special, so pretty much just overpriced.
The color in real life was quite different than pictured both here and on ten over ten's website. It was more taupe-y BLAH instead of the olive drab I was looking for. Really no hint of anything green :( The wear time was just okay.

I'm Adding It To My Christmas List: Navy Laser Blaster Shoots Down Robotic Planes
At first I was gonna ask for all the original He-Man action figures, but now all I want is an anti-robot laser. Suck it, two front teeth! (You should have watched where that mule was kicking anyways)
If you own an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), here's piece of advice: don't fly it near San Nicholas Island, California, or it could be blasted out of the sky - by a laser. Two such vehicles were successfully shot down there on May 24th by a US Navy laser weapon. According to the official press release, this marks "the first detect-thru-engage laser shoot-down of a threat representative target in an over-the-water, combat representative scenario."
Members of the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) utilized a laser shot through a beam director on a KINETO tracking mount, controlled by a MK 15 Phalanx Close In Weapon System (CIWS). The Navy's Laser Weapon System (LaWS) has already shot down UAVs in other scenarios, bringing the total number of downed flying robots to seven.
Seven huh? We're have to at least triple that number if we plan on winning any robot apocalypse. I figure I'm good for five myself. And I'm gonna go ahead put you down for two although I suspect you may only get one before succumbing to your wounds (I'm just being honest).

Thanks to Ian, Jason and Ryan, who I'm marking down for three kills each because they all have enough sense to keep up on the latest in anti-robot technology. Good lookin', guys.

What could be better than advertising?
The Economist asks, Will Facebook, MySpace and other social-networking sites transform advertising? Good question, but it's the wrong one.
The right question is, Can we equip customers to become independent of sellers and their controlling intentions Including the unwanted crap that constitutes far too much of the world's advertising? For the good of both sellers and buyers?
This question came up for me when I saw the third paragraph of the Economist piece:
Messrs Lazarsfeld and Katz, of course, assumed that most of these conversations and their implicit marketing messages would remain inaudible. That firms might be able to eavesdrop on this chatter first became conceivable in the 1990s, with the rise of the internet. Thus the main thesis of "The Cluetrain Manifesto", written in 1999, was that "markets are conversations" which the web can make transparent.
I'm not only a co-author of The Cluetrain Manifesto, but guilty of being the guy who foisted the "markets are conversations" line on the world in the first place. For all the good intentions behind that line, it's still woefully misunderstood, and what the Economist says in that paragraph is no exception.
Because we weren't just talking about "transparency". We were talking about turning markets into places where buyers were not just seen by sellers as cattle to be herded into walled gardens, as "targets" for one-way messages, or as tools for other marketing purposes.
To me the most powerful line in Cluetrain came from Chris Locke who wrote,
we are not seats or eyeballs or end users or consumers. we are human beings and our reach exceeds your grasp. deal with it.
"Deal with it" doesn't mean "Make better advertising" or "Target your advertising more effectively" or "Turn your users into marketers" (which is Facebook's latest idea). All that is just just more grasp.
What we need is better reach by customers. Better advertising doesn't do that. We need something else entirely. Something that lives on the customer side. Something that makes customers and users more powerful, more independent, more valuable than just "consumers" (which Jerry Michalski calls "gullets with wallets and eyeballs").
The problem we still have is a conceptual default. We think, talk and design "solutions" that work entirely on the sell side. We have CRM (customer relationship management) systems that are less about helping real customers than about "managing" them. What we need is VRM (vendor relationship management), by which customers get to manage vendors as well. With CRM+VRM, both sides can truly relate on mutually beneficial terms.
Until CRM meets VRM and starts working out real relationships, we'll keep thinking the only answers come from the sell side and keep putting old crap in new wrappers.
Meanwhile it will help to remember what advertising does and does not do.
Advertising is about supply finding and "creating" demand. Nothing wrong with that. At its best it's good and necessary stuff. But think about what will happen when demand can find and create supply. That's the real holy grail here. And it's one that will take fresh development effort on both the supply and demand sides. The difference between those two right now is that the supply side has been working on targeting, creating and controlling demand for the duration, and the demand side is still getting started.
Earliner this week at Apachecon in Atlanta, my opening keynote explored the possibilities here. Because I think there are countless open source development projects, new and old, that can be put to use answering the question I raised in the second paragraph above. If you feel like naming some of those projects, and sharing your ideas about what we can do with them, weigh in through the comments section below.
I'll get that presentation up shortly. Watch this space for that.
Doc Searls is Senior Editor of Linux Journal
I am not a "gullet with a wallet and eyeballs"
Excellent phrasing. Markets are conversations. And to the first comment, about customers developing their own cars, my response is "Why not?". I can easily envision a seriously enhanced version of a 3D mechanical drafting program which could have access to a central database of all parts and modules manufactured in the world for the auto industry. It could "drag and drop" eg a Ford hybrid power unit into a Toyota designed shell, then put in leather seats from Audi, an entertainment system from Bose, the front fascia of a Chrysler 300 and the tail section of a BMW, etc. etc. The software would automatically flag deficiencies and probably missing items as you went. ("Still need headlights" or "insufficient cooling for your climate" or "underpowered for typical hills in your region" or "insufficient front crumple zone" etc.) 3D solid modelling allows you to inspect as you go. If some requirement is unavailable ("No available half-shaft can connect that transmission to the front wheels. Get bids for custom or re-design?") Pricing interactive. At the end, one or more auto assembly plants near you bid on price to assemble and delivery date, several financial institutions bid to finance it, and several chain service centres bid to provide a 3 or 5 or whatever yr warranty, and when you commit, all suppliers get orders and delivery information for the required parts package to be assembled and scheduled into the assembler plant.
Nothing impossible there. Just a fancy piece of software.
Can you give some concrete examples?
I sympathize with the idea that the current practice of advertising is both annoying to the customer and inefficient for the seller, but I guess my imagination is not up to the task of understanding what you envision in its place.
"Demand creating supply" sounds interesting, but what would some practical examples be? I remember one example you've mentioned in the past: the community of open source programmers often consists of the users who need some software creating it themselves. That, I understand.
How many other areas is that applicable to? I find it a bit hard to imagine myself as a customer who wants, say, some deodorent or a car getting together with others who want the same and creating it. Is there some other sense of "demand creating supply" that I should imagine in those two cases? Or in any cases besides community-created software?
Please understand that I'm not trying to make fun of the notion or criticize it in any way. I just feel I don't understand very well what you mean and I'd like to understand it better. If there is a good description somewhere on the web, just point to it and I'll be happy to go read it.
New Economy
I agree with Doc that there is a need for a new paradigm. One that creates an efficient pipeline of information or thin pipeline between customers and vendors. Please read more about my views at http://riteshbawri.blogspot.com/2007/11/information-pipeline_16.html
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

Malfait, Caldwell earn Athlete of the Week honors
Huntington, Ind.— The Huntington College athletic department announced its Athletes of the Week for the week of October 7 – 13, 2002. Volleyball freshman Tiffany Malfait and soccer junior Luke Caldwell earned the honors for their excellent efforts during the week's competitions.
Malfait, an undecided major from Woodburn, Ind. (Woodlan High School), was named to the Judson Invitational All-Tournament Volleyball Team. The Foresters recorded a 2-1 record at the tournament for third place. Malfait garnered 15 blocks and 10 kills over the three matches to earn her spot on the tournament team. For the week she led the Foresters in blocks with 21. On the season, she is averaging a team-high 1.3 blocks per game and contributing 1.6 kills per game. The Foresters are now 10-15 on the season.
Caldwell, a junior psychology major from Mansfield, Ohio (Mansfield Christian High School) tallied one goal and four assists in the men's soccer 1-0-1 week. On Tuesday, Caldwell scored his loan goal of the week and assisted older brother Tim twice and teammate Scott Samson on the fourth and final goal of 4-0 shutout game versus Bluffton College. In Thursday's 1-1 tie with Marian, Caldwell assisted teammate Tyler Radcliff in the 40th minute. The Foresters now stand at 5-7-1 on the season.
The Huntington College Foresters compete in 14 intercollegiate sports for men and women. In the past six years, Huntington has produced 38 All-America honors and 60 All-America Scholar Athlete honors. Huntington College is a comprehensive Christian college of the liberal arts offering graduate and undergraduate programs in more than 60 academic concentrations. US News & World Report ranks Huntington among the Top 10 comprehensive colleges in the Midwest. Founded in 1897 by the Church of the United Brethren in Christ, Huntington College is located on a contemporary, lakeside campus in Huntington, Indiana.

New Mexico Department of Game and Fish |
BIG-GAME HUNTERS: APPLY FOR LICENSES BEFORE MARCH 20 DEADLINE SANTA FE – The New Mexico Department of Game and Fish is reminding hunters that March 20 is the deadline to apply for deer, elk, pronghorn antelope, oryx, ibex, bighorn sheep, javelina and Barbary sheep licenses. The deadline is a week earlier than last year. The Department expects about 160,000 applications for about 65,000 licenses. Hunters must complete their applications before 5 p.m. MDT March 20. All applicants previously must have created an online account at www.wildlife.state.nm.us. Here's how to apply:
This is the second year since the Department eliminated paper application forms in favor of a paperless online system designed to streamline the application and licensing process and make drawing results and refunds available much sooner. This year, successful applicants will be able to print all types of licenses themselves. Carcass tags have been eliminated and licenses no longer will be mailed unless requested. Also new this year: The Department's Mentored Youth Hunter Program offers first-time hunters younger than age 18 opportunities to apply for and purchase licenses before they complete a full hunter safety course. Hunters in the program must complete an online quiz and be accompanied in the field by a licensed adult. Please check the Rules and Information booklet for more information. To be eligible for the draw, applicants who held deer or elk licenses for the 2012-13 seasons must have submitted a harvest report either online or through the information center. The deadline to submit harvest reports without a late fee was Feb. 18, but applicants still can be eligible for the draw by reporting before the March 20 draw deadline and paying an $8 late fee. Before applying, hunters are highly encouraged to read the Hunting Rules and Information booklet, available online, from license vendors or at Department offices in Santa Fe, Albuquerque, Raton, Roswell and Las Cruces. Applicants also are encouraged to apply early, as a flood of last-minute applications could affect online access and phone banks. ### |

Amos Yong Named J. Rodman Williams Professor of Theology
Thursday, October 22, 2009 | 2:00-4:00 PM | Library Atrium
Several years ago a chair was established in honor of Dr. J. Rodman Williams, who taught in the School of Divinity for many years and authored the three-volume Renewal Theology systematic theology. The School of Divinity is pleased to announce that Chancellor Pat Robertson has appointed Dr. Amos Yong as the first holder of this named chair. The chair will be known as the J. Rodman Williams Chair of Theology, and Dr. Yong's title will be the J. Rodman Williams Professor of Theology.
Dr. Yong will present his lecture is titled, "Disability and the Gifts of the Spirit: Pentecost and the Renewal of the Church." Come join us for this stimulating lecture and first event of its type in the School of Divinity!
Disability and the Gifts of the Spirit: Pentecost and the Renewal of the Church
The interface between the disability rights movement and renewal Christianity has been one of missed opportunities in part because of the centrality of healing in renewal Christian circles. This essay delineates the challenges that occur at this intersection and charts the way toward a renewal theology of disability in dialogue with J. Rodman Williams, one of the leading theologians of the charismatic and neo-Pentecostal movements. Central to such an endeavor is the articulation of an inclusive ecclesiology derived from the Pauline metaphor of the body of Christ animated by the Spirit's diverse giftings amidst and through the church's many members.

Regent Professors Think Outside the Box and Become Finalists in Yale Competition
July 2, 2007
The Yale Center for Faith and Culture issues four awards for courses teaching faith as a life-integrating and life-transforming reality. All 240 theological seminaries and divinity schools affiliated with the Association of Theological Schools in the U.S. and Canada were invited to participate. Dr. Peter Gräbe, professor of New Testament in Regent's School of Divinity, and Dr. William Cox, professor and director of Christian School Program in Regent's School of Education, were elected by the committee at Yale as one of the four winners.
Applicants were invited to think "outside the box" of traditional disciplinary boundaries and to design a course that teaches the Christian faith as a whole, and as lived in all spheres of life.
It was Gräbe who invited Cox to participate with him in the project. "We work very well together," Gräbe explains, adding that the end result of their collaboration was a well-integrated course that transcends the traditional boundaries between divinity and education.
The two developed a syllabus for teaching pastors and lay leaders how to get their congregations to make faith an integral way of life. "The purpose of this course is to help pastors and lay-leaders personally develop, model and impart to others a heart surrendered in full intimacy with God," Gräbe says.
This course takes students through a sequenced Beatitude-related path of emptying and then filling to release their hearts into full worshipful living for God. The instructional pathway includes activities related to practicing spiritual disciplines, engrafting the Word of God, and practicing his presence.
According to Gräbe, Dr. Christian Scharen, director of the Faith as a Way of Life Program, Yale Center for Faith & Culture and Lecturer in Practical Theology at Yale Divinity School, was very complimentary of the course. "He pointed out that our course is on the cutting edge of theological education, based on a very solid theological foundation," Gräbe says.
As winners, Gräbe and Cox will attend a collaborative workshop to be held in mid-September at Yale Divinity School. "We're looking forward to discussing our course with the other winners," Cox says, "as well as with the seasoned theological educators from Yale University who will also attend the workshop."

Jesus' death on the cross is not a secondary theme in Scripture; it is the core. - Max Lucado
The Cross is the blazing fire at which the flame of our love is kindled, but we have to get near enough for its sparks to fall on us.-John Scott
He drained the cup of God's wrath bone dry, leaving not a drop for us to drink.-Richard Allen Bodey
The Cross of Christ is the heart of the Gospel. It takes the entire Bible to explain it. All our teaching must relate to that like all the spokes and rim and tires of a wheel relate to the axis. Jesus is the center, the pivot. Everything else will fit into place around Jesus. Indeed the entire word of God revolves around Him. If Christ is not the hub the wheel will wobble and break.-Reinhard Bonnke
I have seen the marks of the cross upon Him, and by His grace the marks of the cross have been put upon me and I am no longer my own; I am bought with a price, redeemed by His precious blood. Yes, I have seen Him - not in the outward physical sense only, but in the inward sense of a deep spiritual reality. I have had a clear view of Jesus and my life will never be the same again.-Alan Redpath
The Gospel is good news of mercy to the undeserving. The symbol of the religion of Jesus is the cross, not the scales.-John R. W. Stott

New line boasts new sterilizing technology
Not only does the line run a variety of water and juice drinks it handles three different bottle sizes: 0.5- 0.75- and 1.5-L. According to Marquardt if the same product remains in production but a bottle size change is called for it takes about one hour to change the molds on the Contiform. If the product is changed about four hours are required for purging cleaning and sterilizing of the filling machine. The line runs two shifts daily says Marquardt and whenever possible changeovers are scheduled before or after these shifts.
The system installed at Adelholzener is the result of close cooperation between Adelholzener and Krones. Earlier Krones systems used for aseptic filling of PET bottles required complete immersion of each bottle in a sterilizing medium to ensure true asepsis. While effective this equipment occupied considerable space. Also because immersion took place in a totally enclosed chamber it had a forbidding "black box" quality to it.
By contrast the new PET Asept system from Krones is more compact and completely transparent. Operators can see bottles at all times as they move through the entire process.
Leaving the Contiform blow molder bottles are sent through an enclosed air conveyor that uses HEPA-filtered air to blow the bottles forward. Bottles next enter a Class-1000 clean room that houses a 60-station rotary injection sterilizing system. A clamping starwheel transfers bottles to the grippers of the injection system which is solely devoted to bottle sterilization. A newly developed machine that Adelholzener is first to use the injection system is a compact and transparent alternative to bottle immersion.
Twin-channel approach
While in the injection sterilizer bottles remain vertically oriented. The outer surfaces of the bottles are sprayed with ultrafine droplets of paracetic acid. Simultaneously a twin-channel system injects each bottle with liquid paracetic acid sterilant through one channel and steam through the other. The steam "atomizes" the paracetic acid so that it's uniformly dispersed forming an unbroken film of sterilant on the inside surface of the bottle. Whatever microorganisms there are they are sure to be covered completely.
Arriving at a sterilizing method that's this effective says Marquardt was a major accomplishment in the development process behind the aseptic system. In addition to being effective the atomizing approach adds Krones minimizes the amount of liquid sterilant required.
After the injection sterilizer another clamping starwheel carries bottles to the 100-station rotary rinser. Like the downstream filler and capper the rinser is in a Class-100 room. It inverts bottles and uses a triple-channel valve system to spray paracetic acid plus sterile air followed by three doses of sterile water/sterile air each dose separated by a draining period.
Called "disi-jetting" by Krones this process ensures mechanical removal of dead and damaged microorganisms. These remain in contact with the sterilant and are killed. Jetting with sterile water ensures that the bottles are free of sterilant and any dead bacteria it contains. To keep costs down a special filtration system permits reuse of paracetic acid and sterile water.
Exiting the rinser via a clamping transfer starwheel bottles enter the neck grippers of the 70-head rotary filler. Like the rinser both the filler and the capper are in a Class-100 environment. If a minor jam occurs an operator can clear it by using glove ports to reach into the Class-100 area.
The Krones filler handles either carbonated beverages in a counter-pressure mode or noncarbonated beverages in a gravity mode. It determines fill volume by an inductive flow meter. Its neck handling system prevents fill valves from touching the neck finishes of the bottles thus minimizing any chance of contamination from the valve surface.
Still within the Class-100 environment another starwheel transfers bottles from the filler to the grippers of the 16-head Krones capper. Continuous-thread plastic caps are sterilized at the sorter in a peracetic acid immersion bath. The sterilant is then washed off with sterile water and sterile air. Once the cap is applied and torqued down bottles are conveyed out of the Class-100 setting.
Flip-top closure
On its 0.75-L sizes aimed at active outdoors consumers Adelholzener uses a "flip-top" cap from the German division of Seaquist Closures (Mukwonago WI). Injection-molded of polypropylene it incorporates a silicone valve that opens when the bottle sidewalls are squeezed. "It's more expensive yes but it provides optimal dispensing to consumers" says Marquardt.
Labeling is next performed by a Krones Canmatic machine that uses hot glue to apply paper labels to body and neck. Secondary packaging is accomplished by a Krones Kettner shrink packaging machine that handles 4- 6- 8- 18- 20- or 24-count configurations. Bottles can be on a flat pad with film shrink wrap on a tray with film shrink wrap or unsupported in film alone. Why so many varieties? "We want to be able to say to customers 'Whatever you want from us is what we'll try to give you'" says Marquardt.
Another piece of equipment following the shrink bundler is a Meypack (Nottuln Germany) tray packer that's used to put shrink-packed bundles usually six-packs into corrugated trays. A Krones Kettner palletizer and a stretch wrapper from Strapex (Holzgerlingen Germany) bring the line to a close.
Ranked about 11th among Germany's biggest bottlers of mineral water Adelholzener has no intention of replacing glass even though it's established such a promising foothold in plastic. "Glass is the classic packaging material so we'll keep on using our existing glass bottling lines" says managing director Friedrich Schneider.
But one-way plastic bottles will permit Adelholzener to penetrate markets where glass is simply not suitable. In fact should this new package format be as successful as Adelholzener management thinks it can be a second identical line is already on the drawing board.

Boosting Machine Output While Using Fewer Toolholders
Toolholder distortion can impede machining operations, especially if the toolholder walls collapse during high speed operation. All sorts of problems can result, from cutting tool breakage and loss of the machined parts to costly damage of the machine spindle and drawbar.
Toolholder Selection Makes A Difference For Large Part Machining Operations
Machining very large cast iron parts often requires large amounts of material removal using wide cuts and deep bores, so the speeds seldom exceed 5,000 rpm.
Four Toolholder Quality Factors
Toolholders are a critical link between the machine tool and the workpiece. This article looks at four fundamental toolholder manufacturing parameters that precision metalcutting shops need to consider when tooling for a job.
Big Boring On Smaller Machines

Gwinnett Daily Post
DULUTH -- Efforts during the Gwinnett Gladiators' Pink in the Rink weekend paid off big for one local breast cancer organization, as the hockey team recently delivered a $9,000 check.
The Gladiators presented the check to The Sport of Giving, a local nonprofit that raises money and awareness in the fight against breast cancer and provides care and prevention throughout Gwinnett. The Sport of Giving was the leading fundraiser during "Pink in the Rink," which was held at Gladiator games March 2 through 4.
The nonprofit helped with ticket sales, a jersey auction and sales of commemorative team merchandise.
"It is a great community-based organization that does so much to help in the fight against cancer," Gladiators President Steve Chapman said.
"Pink in the Rink" raised a total of nearly $50,000 this year.
