The Installation of an Installation: Jonathan Prince at 535 Madison Avenue
If you ever wondered how those massive sculptures magically appear in plazas and POPS around the city, look no further than Jonathan Prince. The sculptor just installed two works at the Christie's Sculpture Garden at 535 Madison Avenue, and while they may look like they crashed there on a meteor or magically appeared a la the Obelisk in 2001, it is in fact a painstaking process involving forklifts and winches.

After skeeball, virtual reality shoot-outs, golf simulation, shuffleboard, sports on four gigantic TV screens and oddles more distractions in this loud 55,000-square-foot pleasure palace, you'll probably have an appetite. This Chuck E. Cheese for grown-ups (under 21 are allowed only before 10 pm and must be accompanied by someone over 25) serves up big portions of tender ribs, good half-pound burgers, fresh mushroom soup, ordinary ravioli, satisfying Toscana salad with a sharp dressing, and over-the-top desserts.

A good outing against the Astros on August 4 has been sandwiched by a pair of rather forgettable starts for Pelfrey, which is the first real rough patch he's hit since coming off of the disabled list in early July. It's been a long, difficult road for Pelfrey, who has had to fight for every inning since getting blown up regularly early in the season. Looking big picture, there have been some positive signs in how effective Mike's been and in how he's looked, so his last six or seven starts of the year could mean the difference between hitting free agency again and getting an offer for 2014 from the Twins.
In the first three starts of Rienzo's Major League career, results have been a bit of a mixed bag. He allowed three earned runs in seven innings his first time out, a pair of earned runs in six innings in his second start, and then the Twins knocked him around for four runs in five and a third innings five days ago, allowing homers to Justin Morneau and Oswaldo Arcia. But we can tell more about Rienzo by looking past a small sample size.
Rienzo is a 25-year old right-hander who offers a fastball around 90mph, a good cutter, a mid-70s curveball and a changeup. He induces a good number of ground balls, which is part of the reason home runs allowed are few and far between. In the minors he posted good strikeout rates (9.7 K/9 in 543.2 innings), but also had issues with command - something that's already been apparent in three starts for Chicago.
Against right-handed batters, Rienzo works up and away with his fastball and then middle and down and away with his cutter, using the break and difference in velocity to his advantage. The curveball can be hung up in the zone. If he throws a changeup to a right-handed hitter, it'll be once a game. Versus lefties the fastball still works away, and the cutter doesn't change location but now works down and in instead of away. The curve is a good bait pitch, provided he can move it out of the zone. Changeups are exclusively thrown away.
Can the Twins get to Rienzo for the second time in as many starts? Or will Rienzo adapt?

This unique vintage dresser was in our late 1930's French Style home when we purchased it from the owners. It is a lovely, unique, celedon color with fine details. It really works well as a neutral without being as boring as white or brown. The measurements are 78 inches – length; 32 inches – height; 20.5 inches – deep. It can be used in a dining room as a buffet, in a living room as a console under a flatscreen or as a dresser for clothes. Very versatile piece. It is in beautiful condition. Need to sell it to make room for other furniture. Thanks!

Annual Campaign
Carroll Community College Foundation's Annual Campaign provides funding assistance with ongoing costs such as student scholarships, innovative programs and other worthy initiatives.
The campaign allows the Foundation to quickly respond to the college and students' short term needs, which is vital to the college community's well being. Carroll continually faces the challenges of providing an affordable education and instruction in state of the market settings to area residents. Funding from the Annual Campaign helps our college overcome these challenges.
The Foundation recently conducted the employee phase of the 2013 Annual Campaign. Seventy-four percent of college staff and faculty have generously supported the campaign by donating over $49,000! This exceptional support demonstrates the dedication of our college community.
If you would like information on how you can support this important initiative, contact the Foundation Office at 410-386-8155.
A Student's Perspective
I am extremely grateful to Carroll for the opportunity they have given me, to learn and grow as a young adult for the next two years. The cheerful environment and quality education would not be possible if it were not for those who graciously donate to the college. I am thankful to those who have donated to make our school a better facility for learning and making new friends. A few years ago, I was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis, and it slightly changed my college path. That year, I decided to go to Carroll, and I can honestly say it is one of the best choices I have made. I have been given many opportunities to join different clubs and activities. I am a Hill Scholar, currently completing the Leadership Challenge, a Psi Beta member, and participating in many campus activities through the Campus Activities Board. I have grown as a student and as a person, due to the positive views that Carroll has given me. Again, I'd like to thank those who have donated to Carroll, a place that has helped me grow into the person I want to be." - Angela Russo
An Alum's Perspective
"Behind every successful entrepreneur there is at least one unsung hero. For me, that hero is Carroll. Without the support of the faculty and my fellow students, I would have never made it as far as I have. Not only am I proud to support Carroll; I brag about it!" - Jeannine Morber, president of Morber Marketing
A Faculty Member's Perspective
"I began working at Carroll in 1989. Over the past 23 years, I've seen thousands of students transformed as a result of their time at Carroll. Working at Carroll is a gift – it is such a blessing to come to work and know that you can make a difference in someone's life. Contributing to the Annual Campaign is a natural extension. The Foundation Office provides scholarships to students who need assistance the most. In addition, the Foundation has supported many initiatives on campus that would not have been possible without their contribution. I'm particularly grateful to the Foundation for their support of the Alternative Spring Break (ABS) program. For six years, the Foundation has sponsored students, who freely give of their time, to help Habitat for Humanity and other service organizations. The support of the Foundation has allowed more students to participate in ASB and help others in need. My contribution to the Annual Campaign has a ripple effect, benefiting our students and the larger community we serve." - Kate Demarest
A Staff Member's Perspective
"I am honored to serve as Co-Chair of the 2013 Annual Campaign, especially this year as the college celebrates its 20 year anniversary. As one of the college's long tenured members, I am fortunate to have witnessed and been a part of Carroll's growth, from its humble beginning on South Center Street, and to have come in contact with many students.
It has always been important to me to give back to the college, and over the last 20 years I have proudly supported the Annual Campaign – without hesitation. One does not have to work in higher education for very long to realize the growing need for financial assistance and the importance of scholarships to students as they strive to achieve their educational goals. Throughout my career, I have seen many Carroll students share this common need – the need for financial support. I cannot think of a better way to help our students than to support our scholarship program.
I am, again, proud to support our students by contributing to this year's Annual Campaign, and honored to serve as Co-Chair of the 2013 Annual Campaign." – Joel Hoskowitz

Small businesses can play a vital role – but only if they get the finance they need
Growth in the UK economy in the decade up to the financial crisis and recession was dominated by large companies and institutions. In the private sector, big banks grew rapidly and major food retailers increased their market share. Meanwhile, in the public sector there were large increases in employment in the health service and in education.
The next decade will be very different. The problems facing the banks as they seek to repair their balances sheets and restructure in response to the Vickers Commission's recommendations (assuming these are implemented in full by the government) are well known.
At the same time, if growth in future is driven less by debt-financed consumer spending, the major retailers are likely to find the going tougher. And in the public sector, financial constraints mean that it is more likely that employment across the health and education sectors will contract than expand.
In this environment, if the economy is to grow at a healthy pace small businesses will have a vital role to play. Dynamic small companies will have to help generate the growth and create the jobs that are needed for the economy to return to full employment.
But this will only be possible if they can attract the finance they need. Entrepreneurs need funds to establish new businesses; and small firms need funds to expand and to allow them to take on more employees.
Project Merlin – the deal between the government and the five major UK banks – is supposed to deliver some of this finance.
The banks were committed to lending £76 billion to small and medium-sized enterprises in 2011 (more if demand exceeded this level). In the first three quarters of the year, Bank of England figures show lending amounted to £56 billion, suggesting the banks were just about on course to meet the full-year target.
But anecdotal evidence gives a very different impression. There are frequent complaints from small firms that credit is often not available, and that when it is, it is only at a high price or on very restrictive terms. The government needs to listen to these complaints and find a way to make the banks offer more support to the small business sector in 2012.
But obtaining bank finance is not the only problem small companies face. As they grow, they also look to equity finance to back their business expansion plans. But they find investors are more interested in seeking short-term gains from large companies, than they are in investing for the long-term in smaller companies.
IPPR has just published a research paper by Gervais Williams, an asset manager at MAM funds, arguing that tax changes are needed to promote long-term responsible investment in smaller companies at the expense of short termism.
His analysis shows how an outflow of investment from the small companies sector over the last decade has weakened its ability to respond to the challenges it now faces and he argues that this outflow needs to be reversed.
Institutions, such as pension and insurance funds, should be encouraged to invest less in large companies and in overseas equity markets and more in smaller companies in the UK market.
In a low growth world, where dividend payments are likely to account for a bigger proportion of the returns from investing in equities, backing high-yielding small companies – which tend to outperform the equity market over the long-term – might just make good sense.

text: Motherboard blocksKategorienWaterblocks for the motherboard (MB waterblocks) are often being integrated after a watercooling system is already in place. With CPU and GPU waterblocks the need for a watercooling system is obvious, but with MB waterblocks the advantages often become apparent a little later: Watercooled Mainboards can be overclocked excellently and the annoying noise from the mostly high-speed small fans can be eliminated. Especially High-end Mainboards should be watercooled. Due to the many different Mainboard layouts only a rather small number of suitable waterblocks for Mainboards are available. Hence you should consider compatibility with the chosen waterblocks in advance when purchasing a Mainboard.

Abstract: The first phytochemical inspection of the Marquesan endemic plant Rauvolfia nukuhivensis led to the isolation and structure characterization of two new indolo[2,3‑a]quinolizinium derivatives named nukuhivensium (1) and N12-methyl-nukuhivensium (2). They feature an aromatic indolo[2,3-a]quinolizinium core, substituted at C-2 by a n-propyl group, which is unusual in this family of alkaloid derivatives. The structure elucidation was performed on the basis of NMR spectroscopy and especially by interpretation of 2D HMBC correlations. A biosynthetic pathway is proposed on the basis of known enzymatic transformations for this family of natural products. These compounds exhibited low antimicrobial activities.

5 Steps to Safer Healthcare
Monday, 26 February 2007
Hilton Head Island, SC
– February 12, 2007 - In support of National Patient Safety Awareness Week, from March 4-10, 2007, Hilton Head Regional Medical Center is supporting the National Patient Safety Foundation's (NPSF) efforts to highlight effective communication as the patient safety tool of choice. The theme, "Patient Safety: A Road Taken Together," emphasizes the partnership between providers, patients and their community in improving patient safety and focuses on the impact of teamwork on all levels. The theme encourages providers to listen to their patients, speak in simple teams and empower and develop an equal growing partnership. For patients, medical information is often difficult to understand. Patients who ask questions until they understand what they need to do can become partners with their doctor to manage their health. This understanding will build relationships and improve patient safety.
Mary Harrington, RN and Certified Patient Safety Officer at Hilton Head Regional Medical Center encourages the patient to learn more about what they can do to receive safer health care. Harrington recommends knowing these "5 Steps to Safer Health Care" that was developed by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services in partnership with the American Hospital Association and the American Medical Association.
1. Ask questions if you have doubts or concerns.
Ask questions and make sure you understand the answers. Choose a doctor you feel comfortable talking to. Take a relative or friend with you to help you ask questions and understand the answers.
2. Keep and bring a list of ALL the medicines you take.
Give your doctor and pharmacist a list of all the medicines that you take, including non-prescription medicines. Tell them about any drug allergies you have. Ask about side effects and what to avoid while taking the medicine. Read the label when you get your medicine, including all warnings. Make sure your medicine is what the doctor ordered and know how to use it. Ask the pharmacist about your medicine if it looks different than you expected.
Hilton Head Regional Medical Center provides blank medication cards to its patients upon discharge. The card folds nicely to fit into a wallet or money clip. If you would like a medication record card, call (843) 689-8285.
3. Get the results of any test or procedure.
Ask when and how you will get the results of tests or procedures. Don't assume the results are fine if you do not get them when expected, be it in person, by phone, or by mail. Call your doctor and ask for your results. Ask what the results mean for your care.
4. Talk to your doctor about which hospital is best for your health needs.
Ask your doctor about which hospital has the best care and results for your condition if you have more than one hospital to choose from. Be sure you understand the instructions you get about follow-up care when you leave the hospital.
5. Make sure you understand what will happen if you need surgery.
Make sure you, your doctor, and your surgeon all agree on exactly what will be done during the operation. Ask your doctor, "Who will manage my care when I am in the hospital?" Ask your surgeon:
Exactly what will you be doing?
About how long will it take?
What will happen after the surgery?
How can I expect to feel during recovery?
Tell the surgeon, anesthesiologist, and nurses about any allergies, bad reaction to anesthesia, and any medications you are taking.
Patient Safety Awareness week is a call to action to raise awareness of the issue and encourage patient safety by highlighting the importance of asking questions, listening and learning in making healthcare decisions. For more information about the patient safety movement, visit

No doubt everyone has heard the good news out of the Supreme Court last week. Video games are saved from government censorship based on violent content,
No doubt everyone has heard the good news out of the Supreme Court last week. Video games are saved from government censorship based on violent content,
The lead counsel for the video game industry in the upcoming Supreme Court fight against California's proposed violent video game restrictions outlined the problems with the state's legal arguments in a recent public appearance.
Speaking at an intellectual property forum at Chicago-Kent University last week, Jenner and Block LLP Partner Paul M. Smith said that no matter how a state defines "extreme" violence in such laws, they will run into constitutional problems with vagueness.
"I've litigated nine cases in a row where states have tried to define the category nine different ways – and they always lose when they make this case because violence is considered a perfectly appropriate and normal part of what we give our kids to see starting from a very young age," he said.
Today is the day that advocacy groups and businesses have designated as a day of protest online against the NSA's unfettered surveillance and data collection practices. Led by the Electronic Frontier Foundation, the collective are calling on websites and internet users to show their support by displaying special banners online and to contact their elected official in D.C. to let them know that the mass surveillance being conducted by the NSA needs to come to an end.
The head of the House Intelligence Committee Rep. Mike Rogers (R-MI) has lashed out at one of the key journalists publishing stories about the documents leaked by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden. While not mentioning him by name, Rogers basically calls The Guardian's Glen Greenwald a thief, implying that he is committing some sort of crime and is selling the documents leaked by Edward Snowden. You may recall that Greenwald was one of the first journalists to break the story about Edward Snowden and his cache of NSA-related documents and materials..
Google sent out a call to action today urging internet users to sign a petition on Whitehouse.gov demanding that the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA) be reformed to include more protections for online activity and to reflect the change in the way people use the Internet. As is the case with petitions on the site, the White House is only obligated to respond once the petition has reached 100,000 signatures. As of this writing the petition has 43,928 of the signatures it needs by Dec. 12.
ThanksUSA and the Entertainment Software Association (ESA) Foundation announced the launch of the ninth annual ThanksUSA Treasure Hunt (TH9), a free, fully interactive digital trivia and puzzle game about U.S. history, culture and values. The annual hunt supports ThanksUSA's annual scholarship fund to benefit the children and spouses of active-duty military personnel by providing scholarships for two-year or four-year colleges, vocational or technical schools. The focus of this year's hunt will be the Bill of Rights.
Berin Szoka, President of Internet rights organization TechFreedom has penned an interesting editorial over at the Huffington Post detailing his group's opposition to Massachusetts state lawmakers pushing for research on the connection between real-world violence and playing violent video games.
The plaintiff in the landmark gun rights Supreme Court decision that bears his name (Heller v. District of Columbia) warned that the effort to regulate violent video games in the U.S. Congress is "a backdoor attack on gun rights." The Supreme Court case, Heller v. District of Columbia, overturned D.C.'s handgun ban. In a report on conservative publication Human Events, Heller said that lawmakers are targeting video games as a way to get at the issue from behind.
On this week's show, hosts Andrew Eisen and E. Zachary Knight are joined by Ben Hayward, who wrote an interesting article last week about how video game players are often gun owners too, and how the government often tries to pit one group against the other. Andrew also reveals the results of last week's poll concerning the Mighty No. 9 and the possibility that the developer behind the game might get sued by Capcom.
On October 26 organizers of StopWatchingUs will hold a rally in Washington D.C. on the anniversary of the Patriot Act. StopWatchingUs is a nonpartisan coalition of organizations, individuals, and companies that oppose the unconstitutional mass surveillance being conducted by the National Security Agency. The collective seeks "a full Congressional investigation of America's surveillance programs, reform to federal surveillance law, and accountability from public officials responsible for hiding this surveillance from lawmakers and the public."
According to newly declassified documents, a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court judge slammed the National Security Agency in 2009 for what he called "flagrant violations" of the privacy rights of U.S. citizens over a three-year period of searches of telephone records.
Earlier this week we reported that Patriot Act chief author Rep. James Sensenbrenner (R-Wisc.) had come out against the NSA in ACLU v. NSA, a lawsuit that seeks an immediate injunction that would halt all spying activity on American citizens, among other things. But what we didn't report is that a former Presidential candidate (and former Senator) and a former Vice-President have also sided with the ACLU.
It looks like Electronic Arts is getting a little breathing room from the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco this week concerning Keller v. Electronic Arts.
On July 31 the Ninth Circuit ruled that the company wasn't protected by the First Amendment from former college athletes' claims that the company violated their rights by using their likenesses in its NCAA Football games without paying compensation or getting permission.
The U.S. Supreme Court is considering a review of the 677 New Loudon Corp. v. State of New York Tax Tribunal, following a decision from the New York Supreme Court that the state government may tax exotic dancing but not other forms of dancing. Free speech advocacy group Media Coalition thinks that if the Supreme Court were to review this decision, it would likely overturn it because it violates the First Amendment. The group recently filed an amicus brief with the court urging it to review the case.
On Thursday the U.S. Justice Department was rebuked by a U.S. District Court Judge for seeking to delay proceedings in a case against the NSA brought forward by the American Civil Liberties Union. The Justice Department had asked the court for an extension of time in the case so that it could declassify related documents, but U.S. District Judge William Pauley rebuked the agency, telling lawyers for the DOJ that it was in a courtroom and not some sort of marketplace.
In Episode 61 of the Super Podcast Action Committee, hosts Andrew Eisen and E. Zachary Knight talk about the First Amendment, if Microsoft will cooperate with the government to allow access to the Kinect's various features (for the purposes of spying on us), Forza 5 requiring a 'day one' update, and a whole lot more. there's even some talk about Howard the Duck, LEGOs, the new Avengers movie, Hank Pym, Comic-Con and more.

The results of a new survey released today by the Newseum Institute shows that roughly 34 percent of Americans think that the First Amendment goes too far in the rights it guarantees, up from 13 percent in last year's survey. This is the largest single-year increase in the history of the State of the First Amendment national survey. The survey has been conducted since 1997 to determine public opinion about First Amendment rights and issues. The results were released today by First Amendment Center President Ken Paulson and Newseum Institute Chief Operating Officer Gene Policinski.
The Electronic Frontier Foundation has filed a lawsuit against the National Security Agency (NSA) today for violating the First Amendment right of association by illegally collecting the call records of 19 groups. The Internet advocacy group has filed this lawsuit on behalf of 19 groups and organizations that in any other situation would make for strange bedfellows.
Two years ago today, the US Supreme Court ruled in favor of the First Amendment rights of gamers and the games industry. This ruling came about after years of legal battles between the games industry and various states. This particular ruling was over a legal dispute between the state of California and the games industry.
A new United Nations report calls for internet surveillance in the name of fighting terrorism, reports C|Net. The report points out the lack of international agreements on the retention of data, and concerns about open Wi-Fi networks in places like airports, cafes and libraries that are likely prime spots for terrorists and cyber terrorists chatter.
A war of words between Gawker Media and the Reddit community might make for some marvelous online drama, but it doesn't sit well with Wishan Wong, chief executive of Reddit. An internal memo obtained by Gawker and attributed Wong, reveals that Reddit's CEO thinks free speech is paramount to the community but that the ban on Gawker links is not a good idea.
Yesterday the Philippine Supreme Court issued a preliminary injunction against a recently passed anti-cybercrime law that had harsh penalties for violators of various statutes within the law. Justice Secretary Leila de Lima said that the court issued the temporary restraining order to keep the government from enforcing it while the courts decide if it is legal on the country's constitution. Despite public protests and pressure to lawmakers who supported the bill, it managed to gain passage in the legislature and was signed into law by President Benigno Aquino III last month.
The Declaration of Internet Freedom may not be getting as much national attention as it should from the mainstream media (despite several members of Congress and the Senate strongly and publicly supporting it), but Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian (who also had a hand in helping draft the document) has some plans to get it noticed by the general public.
In a new blog post, Sandra Fulton, a member of the ACLU's Washington Legislative Office, describes the Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement as the "biggest threat to free speech and intellectual property that you've never heard of." Fulton makes a good point because U.S. trade Representatives negotiating the treaty and other countries are doing a hell of a job keeping the details of this trade treaty a big secret.
Google has decided to play ball with rights holders, according to this Politico report. The world's biggest search engine revealed that it will now make search results from sites with "frequent copyright removal notices" appear lower in Google search rankings. Google announced late Friday that web sites with high numbers of "valid" removal notices would be affected by this new policy.
A federal judge has denied a motion by Electronic Arts to dismiss counter-claims in a trademark lawsuit filed by Textron Innovations and Bell Helicopter Textron related to helicopters depicted in its popular Battlefield games. Textron Innovations and Bell Helicopter Textron make the AH-1Z, UH-1Y and V-22 helicopters. They filed a lawsuit in 2008 claiming that the game's depiction of these helicopters infringed on Bell-manufactured vehicles in the "Battlefield Vietnam," "Battlefield Vietnam: Redux" and "Battlefield 2" video games.
In the old days, Supreme Court Justices had very little information to turn to outside of legal briefs presented by combatants and case law when making a ruling, but a new study by William & Mary law professor Allison Orr Larsen finds that justice are increasingly turning to information on the Internet to shore up their opinions. According to research from Larsen, there were more than 100 instances where justices used information on the Internet in their opinions.
In an age where acronyms such as SOPA, PIPA, ACTA, CISPA, CSA, and more put fear into the hearts of Internet users all over the globe it's time that someone stand up and clearly define what rights we should have on the Internet. Like the Continental Congress did when America declared Independence way back in 1776, the Entertainment Consumers Association (ECA) and other advocacy groups have come up with our own version of a "Declaration" for the Internet age.

Thayers Witch Hazel with Aloe Vera -- 60 Pads
Great Cleansing Pads
These cleansing pads are amazing! They are paraben free and have the most natural and effective ingredients you could find. They are not loaded with alcohol like most other cleansing pads, so they do not burn or dry my skin out. They are exfoliating but not too rough. They are very effective for removing makeup and thoroughly cleaning my skin. They are saturated with product which is great (you could squeeze them out a little). They do not have a strong scent, they smell light and fresh. The price is one of the best out there for natural cleansing pads and you get a really good amount of pads. I love this product and I recommend it to anyone with sensitive or problem skin and even normal skin.
November 8, 2012
One Of My Staple Personal Products
Thayers Witch Hazel w/ Aloe Vera pads have 1/2 the (grain) alcohol than the Medicated pads by the same company. I prefer Thayers brand to another well known witch hazel brand Dicki...because Thayers does not add unwanted preservatives. I've taken these pads on camping trips, use them to freshen up on a hot day, & before applying deodorant. I usually have a bottle of Thayers Witch Hazel & some regular cotton pads on hand as a back up, but the jar of soaked pads is very convenient & a favorite item to keep on hand. I tried finding the type pads that Thayers uses in these little jars but no luck. So, I will just keep buying these jars of soaked Thayers pads.

I've only been using this for around a month but I have seen a big change in my face. My skin feels cleaner, softer, and the best part, NO BREAKOUTS OR PIMPLES. My skin is pretty sensitive so I wasn't sure how it would react but it's been great. Also, I usually get the monthly pimple due to harmones, but didn't even get that while using this stuff. I'm auto-delivery now, I won't be without it. And I love the convenience of the pads, too!
June 25, 2012
Great Toner
I enjoy using the pads. I do not need to worry about having cotton balls. This is the same product in the liquid bottle. It is gentle and effective at toning after cleansing my face wash
January 2, 2012
easy to use
I agree with some of the other reviews, these are too wet. But, all you have to do it squeeze them out a little. Then they are fine.

Personal handheld computers (PDAs) with GPS capability have become a staple in many flight bags in recent years. Although it is tempting for pilots to use these as their primary navigation source, it is NOT legal nor the safest way to fly. An instrument rated private pilot flying a Cessna 172 proved this point on October 15, 2002 when he was killed during an attempted GPS approach to Mount Sterling-Montgomery County Airport in Mount Sterling, Kentucky.
The evening before the accident, the pilot completed a checkout in the same Cessna 172. According to the instructor, during the checkout the pilot completed multiple IFR tasks successfully, even describing the pilot as "very competent." During part of the checkout, the pilot started to use a PDA with a GPS antenna, but turned it off at the request of the instructor. The Cessna 172 they were flying was certified for IFR flight, but did not have a GPS receiver installed.
On the day of the accident, as the pilot approached Mount Sterling he requested the GPS approach to runway 21 (the aircraft didn't have an approved IFR GPS). The approach was approved, and he was advised of the local altimeter setting, but did not acknowledge the transmission. The GPS approach to runway 21 at Mount Sterling consists of four fixes: FELPO, the intermediate approach fix; ISFUR, the final approach fix; an unnamed step down fix located 2.3 nautical miles from the missed approach point; and runway 21, the missed approach point.
Radar data indicated that the airplane passed abeam FELPO 1 nautical mile right of course, at an altitude of 2,700 feet. Abeam ISFUR (the final approach fix) the airplane was 1/2 mile right of course at 2,300 feet. The charted minimum descent altitude between FELPO and ISFUR was 2,600 feet msl (1,800 feet agl). The airplane impacted a tower left of the approach course centerline, at an elevation of 1,350 feet.
Weather at the time of the accident included overcast ceilings at 500 feet agl, 3 statute miles visibility, temperature 58 degrees, and dew point 54 degrees. The pilot had over 478 hours of total time, with 106 hours of instrument experience.
The NTSB determined the cause of this accident to be the failure of the pilot to follow the published instrument approach procedure, which resulted in an early descent into an antenna tower.
The maker of the software on the PDA had posted a warning on its website which stated "The system is not tested or approved by the FAA or any governmental agency and should not be used as a primary flight instrument."
Handheld GPS units are a wonderful resource to have in a cockpit. Having a moving map display will significantly improve a pilots' situational awareness. However, currently none of the handheld units on the market can be used for primary navigation in IFR conditions. If you own a handheld GPS unit, it is imperative that you use it according to the manufacturer's recommendations.
For more information about GPS in general, attend one of ASF's free seminars, GPS: Beyond Direct-To, being held throughout the country.
Also, see ASF's GPS Safety Advisor online.
This accident report as well as others can be found in ASF's Online Database.

If the idea you have matches your competitors ideas in most or all of the things in the list than you should consider re-working your idea until it matches situation #2.
In this situation you find that there ARE major differences are in:
If the similar idea is literally only similar in perhaps application and is different in most or all other ways, than you might not have much to worry about.
This is the situation that will apply to most people who have discovered someone is already selling "their" ideas. You think the idea is similar, maybe you're even convinced, but you haven't taken the time to discover how similar the ideas are. So here's some questions anyone in this situation should answer before they decide what to do.
If you have answered these questions and have defined the differences in your ideas than you have the tools to better understand what makes your idea different, and hopefully better than the competition.
You want to be able to easily communicate to your customer how your idea solves their problem in a new, unique, and meaningful way. You want to prove how your idea will do that by listing the unique features, and by citing the performance numbers that makes your idea not only unique, but better.
If you have found that you cannot answer these questions or you still aren't sure we would be happy to set up a consultation with you to help you move forward. If you understand better than ever how your idea is game changing and you want to move on to the next steps of development we would be happy to assist you in that process too.

"How do I know if my idea will make money?
Is my idea profitable?
How much is my idea worth?
What are the pitfalls to avoid before commercializing an idea?
How do I estimate my ideas value?"
In the blog post Is Your Idea Good? my colleague James Bryant helps you ask the right questions to determine the quality of your idea to others (a key component of value). In this post I want to help you put actual numbers on that idea and consider what first-year sales could look like.
What I am about to show you is a simplified version of the Fourt-Woodlock equation, but first we need to understand some definitions.
1. Final Decision Makers (FDM) – These are all the people that could possibly benefit from your innovation. If your idea is for a new kind of piano, then you FDM could be piano players or piano stores depending on if you want to sell directly or through a distributor.
2. Trial Rate (TR) – This is a percentage that tells you three things 1. what percent of your FDM you can make aware of your idea through marketing 2. What percent of the people reached would be willing to purchase your idea 3. What percent of people are able to purchase i.e. have the disposable income. Common trial rates for general population (all households in the USA) FDM's range from .004% – 10.58% based on disruptiveness of the innovation and the marketing capacity. a weighted average of these percentages is about 2.6%, this could be a good starting point for first round calculations.
3. Repeat Rate (RR) – This is the percentage of first time buyers that will buy again in the first year.
4. First Purchase Revenue (FPR) – This is the unit price multiplied by the number of units bought the first time.
5. Repeat Purchase Revenue (RPR) – The amount spent per unit for a repeat purchase i.e. if the price has dropped this is where you consider that.
6. Number of Repeat Purchases (NRP) – Simple enough this is how many times someone will buy again in the first year.
7. Trial Sales (TS) – TS is the amount of revenue from first purchase first time buyers.
8. Repeat Sales (RS) – RS is the amount of money made from all of the repeat sales in the first year.
9. First Year Sales (FYS) – Finally! What we have been working towards. FYS is TS+RS i.e. all of your sales for the first year.
Keep in mind that TR has three distinct parts and if you want to be more precise you will want to break it down like this:
TR = %Willing to buy x %Able to buy x %Aware through marketing
Example: TR for a major innovation in XX industry = (maybe 75% are willing to switch from current product or supplier because of the huge benefit of XX innovation) x (lets say it is very expensive so only 5% are able to buy) x (and we will pretend it is a niche industry so we can easily make 95% aware) = .75 x .05 x .95 = .0356 or 3.56% Trial Rate.
Phew! Now that we have all of the messy details let's do the fun part. Here is the equation you will want to use to calculate you FYS.
(If you hate equations it's ok! Just download my spreadsheet here: Custom Fourt Woodlock Calculator and enter in your numbers to find out your FYS).
If you have any questions or suggestions about how to do this better I would love to hear about it. Email me at firstname.lastname@example.com with the title of this blog in the subject.
A prototype is simply a model that is used to demonstrate the qualities of a future part, product, process, or service. A prototype can be anything that demonstrates how your idea works and what it will look like. The term prototype itself is used pretty loosely and is applied to ideas under development along the way to becoming a product or service on the market. At the AMC we break prototypes down into 3 major categories with 4 different types.
Three Categories of Prototypes
Four Types of Prototypes
Prototypes are defined by what category and type they fall under. For example you can have a "Looks like" assembly prototype that is a scaled down 3D printed object that will help you visualize a future product. A "works like" paper prototype could be a math model of the physics of a new type of engine.
Check out a prototype developed at the AMC
NeuroCheck - O'Brien Medical partnered with The Maine Technology Institute (MTI) and the AMC to develop a modern testing device for diabetic peripheral neuropathy, or damaged or deteriorating nerves in the feet of diabetics. The condition all too often can lead to foot ulcers and eventual foot amputation. The current practice of using tuning forks is subjective leaves too much room for human error. This device will eliminate the guesswork, and produce consistent results from user to user.
Working with the AMC, O'Brien medical was able to develop a completely customized solution that met their vision for the product. the AMC developed, designed, and manufactured custom electronics, actuators, and stainless housing for this medical instrument. O'Brien Medical was able to conduct clinical trials to further develop the idea.
The AMC team has years of experience in all manner of Prototype development. We help inventors, entrepreneurs, researchers, and businesses transform their thoughts into real data, parts, and systems they can use to advance.

It can be hard to know if an idea is good enough to invest in. There are many steps along the way from a Eureka! moment to a product on the shelves or a service ready for hire. You may not know if you should even pursue the idea, let alone start spending time and money on it. There are some things you can do up front to learn. These steps can be done with little to no money. They will take time, but what you learn by taking them will help you learn about the value of your ideas.
Do an internet search for similar ideas. Find out if your idea is already out there. See if other people or companies are already offering something similar.
Quantify with numbers what makes your idea better than any competition. Qualify with words what features of your idea make it better.
Talk to friends, coworkers, and family. See if they have a need for your idea. Find out how much they would be willing to pay for it as a product or service.
Ask about it on an internet forum. People on the internet can be brutally honest. That honesty can help you improve your idea as long as you don't take it personally.
Hit the streets. Go to places you imagine your idea would be sold. See what's on the shelves around it. Take a chance and ask a stranger if they would buy your idea over other products.
Build a Business Plan around your idea. There are many free business plan templates on the internet such as this one from the Small Business Administarion: http://www.sba.gov/business-plan/1. Use these to evaluate the finances of your idea; both the up front investment and potential short and long term paybacks.
Write down your ideas, define them. Give them life on paper. You may find that as you write about them you learn things about them. As you write about them they will change. Your perspective on them may change. Things to write about are:
The things you write become the first real incarnation of your idea, a prototype if you will. In this state you have nothing invested and you'll learn a lot about both the things you didn't know and the things you thought you knew.
Sometimes we learn an idea is simply near and dear to our hearts, and maybe we are the only ones who see value in it. That's OK! Because ideas are free. If you're passionate about them then keep thinking. Keep learning. Write down more ideas. The more ideas you write down, define and refine the more likely you are to succeed. Don't be discouraged if you have 100 ideas that don't work on paper. Save them for a rainy day when something may have changed in your assumptions: a new technology, a new customer, a new method. With ideas More is More.

Osseointegration derives from the Greek osteon, bone, and the Latin integrare, to make whole. The term refers to the direct structural and functional connection between living bone and the surface of a load-bearing artificial implant. Osseointegration has enhanced the science of medical bone and joint replacement techniques as well as dental implants and improving prosthetics for amputees.
Osseointegration is also defined as : "the formation of a direct interface between an implant and bone, without intervening soft tissue".[1] Osseointegrated implant is a type of implant defined as "an endosteal implant containing pores into which osteoblasts and supporting connective tissue can migrate".[2] Applied to oral implantology, this thus refers to bone grown right up to the implant surface without interposed soft tissue layer. No scar tissue, cartilage or ligament fibers are present between the bone and implant surface. The direct contact of bone and implant surface can be verified microscopically.
Osseointegration may also be defined as :
- Osseous integration, the apparent direct attachment or connection of osseous tissue to an inert alloplastic material without intervening connective tissue.
- The process and resultant apparent direct connection of the endogenous material surface and the host bone tissues without intervening connective tissue.
- The interface between alloplastic material and bone.
In 1952, Per-Ingvar Brånemark of Sweden conducted an experiment where he utilized a titanium implant chamber to study blood flow in rabbit bone. At the conclusion of the experiment, when it became time to remove the titanium chambers from the bone, he discovered that the bone had integrated so completely with the implant that the chamber could not be removed. Brånemark called the discovery "osseointegration," and saw the possibilities for human use.
In dental medicine the implementation of osseointegration started in the mid-1960s as a result of Brånemark's work.[3][4][5][6] In 1965 Brånemark, who was at the time Professor of Anatomy at the University of Gothenburg, placed dental implants into the first human patient - Gösta Larsson. This patient had a cleft palate defect and required implants to support a palatal obturator. Gosta Larsson died in 2005, with the original implants still in place after 40 years of function.[7]
In the mid-1970s Brånemark entered into a commercial partnership with the Swedish defense company Bofors to manufacture dental implants and the instrumentation required for their placement. Eventually an offshoot of Bofors, Nobel Pharma, was created to concentrate on this product line. Nobel Pharma subsequently became Nobel Biocare.[7]
Brånemark spent almost 30 years fighting the scientific community for acceptance of osseointegration as a viable treatment. In Sweden he was often openly ridiculed at scientific conferences. His university stopped funding for his research, forcing him to open a private clinic to continue the treatment of patients. Eventually an emerging breed of young academics started to notice the work being performed in Sweden. Toronto's Professor Zarb, a Maltese dentist working in Canada, was instrumental in bringing the concept of osseointegration to the wider world. The 1983 Toronto Conference is generally considered to be the turning point, when finally the worldwide scientific community accepted Brånemark's work. Today osseointegration is a highly predictable and commonplace treatment modality.[7]
- Dental implants are by far the main field of application
- Retention of a craniofacial prosthesis such as an artificial ear (ear prosthesis), maxillofacial reconstruction, eye (orbital prosthesis), or nose (nose prosthesis)
- Bone anchored limb prostheses[8]
- Bone anchored hearing conduction amplification (Bone anchored hearing aid)
- Knee and joint replacement
Two theories regarding the chemical mechanism by which endosteal implants integrate with bone have been proposed. Osseointegration, as defined above, contrasts with fibrosseous integration, in which soft tissues such as fibers and/or cells are interposed between the two surfaces.[9][10]
Brånemark's theory of osseointegration[edit]
Brånemark proposed that implants integrate such that the bone is laid very close to the implant without any intervening connective tissue. The titanium oxide permanently fuses with the bone, as Brånemark showed in 1950s.
Weiss' theory of fibro-osseous integration[edit]
Weiss' theory states that there is a fibro-osseous ligament formed between the implant and the bone and this ligament can be considered as the equivalent of the periodontal ligament found in the gomphosis. He defends the presence of collagen fibres at the bone-implant interface. He interpreted it as the peri-implantal ligament with an osteogenic effect. He advocates the early loading of the implant.
Osseointegration versus Biointegration[edit]
In 1985, Dr. C. de Putter proposed two ways of implant anchorage or retention as mechanical and bioactive. Mechanical retention can be achieved in cases where the implant material is a metal, for example, commercially pure titanium and titanium alloys. In these cases, topological features like vents, slots, dimples, threads (screws), etc. aid in the retention of the implant. There is no chemical bonding and the retention depends on the surface area: the greater the surface area, the greater the contact.
Bioactive retention can be achieved in cases where the implant is coated with bioactive materials such as hydroxyapatite. These bioactive materials stimulate bone formation leading to a physico-chemical bond. The implant is ankylosed with the bone.
For osseointegrated dental implants, metallic, ceramic, and polymeric materials have been used,[2] in particular titanium.[11] To be termed osseointegration the connection between the os and the implant need not be 100 percent, and the essence of osseointegration derives more from the stability of the fixation than the degree of contact in histologic terms. In short it represents a process whereby clinically asymptomatic rigid fixation of alloplastic materials is achieved, and maintained, in bone during functional loading.[12] When osseointegration occurs, the implant is tightly held in place by the bone. The process typically takes several weeks or months to occur which is well enough for the implant dentist to complete the restorations. The fact is that the degree of osseointegration of implants is a matter of time. First evidence of integration occurs after a few weeks, while more robust connection is progressively effected over the next months or years.[13] Though the osseointegrated interface becomes resistant to external shocks over time, it may be damaged by prolonged adverse stimuli and overload, which may result in implant failure.[14][15] In studies performed using 3M™ ESPE™ MDI (Mini dental implants), it was noted that the absence of micromotion at the bone-implant interface was necessary to enable proper osseointegration.[16] Further, it was noted that there is a critical threshold of micromotion above which a fibrous encapsulation process occurs, rather than osseointegration.[17] Already Brånemark stated that the implant should not be loaded and left out of function during the healing period for osseous integration to occur.
Other complications may arise even in the absence of external impact. One issue is the growing of cement.[18] In normal cases, the absence of cementum on the implant surface prevents the attachment of collagen fibers. This is normally the case due to the absence of cementum progenitor cells in the area receiving the implant. However, when such cells are present, cement may form on or around the implant surface, and a functional collagen attachment may attach to it.[19]
Advances in materials engineering: metal foams[edit]
Since 2005, a number of orthopedic device manufacturers have introduced products that feature porous metal construction.[20][21][22] Clinical studies on mammals have shown that porous metals, such as titanium foam, may allow the formation of vascular systems within the porous area.[23] For orthopedic uses, metals such as tantalum or titanium are often used, as these metals exhibit high tensile strength and corrosion resistance with excellent biocompatibility.
The process of osseointegration in metal foams is similar to that in bone grafts. The porous bone-like properties of the metal foam contribute to extensive bone infiltration, allowing osteoblast activity to take place. In addition, the porous structure allows for soft tissue adherence and vascularization within the implant. These materials are currently deployed in hip replacement, knee replacement and dental implant surgeries.

Peter Merholz, a UX thinker and practitioner whom I have always held in high esteem, has written a well thought through blog post on reframing UX design.
The two central paragraph in his discourse are these ones:
"UX Designer is not a workflows-and-wireframes role. It's a leadership role (though not necessarily a management role). It is a systems role — UX brings humanity to systems design and engineering. UX is a fundamentally synthetic role, not just coordinating these distinct activities, but helping realize a whole that is greater than the sum of the parts. And while a UX Designer uses design approaches, they are not for typical design outcomes." [...]
"Most people calling themselves "UX Designers" are not. They are interaction designers and information architects. These are perfectly laudable practices in their own right, but if "UX Design" is going to contribute meaningfully in this connected world, it can no longer be bound up in the constituent disciplines from which it emerged, but instead must embrace a new mandate to ensure the delivery of great user experiences regardless of where those experiences take place."

The Oklahoma Highway Patrol said searchers have recovered the body of Brendan Earl, 18, of Tulsa, who drowned Thursday evening at Lake Country Swim Beach on Lake Keystone.
OHP said just at 4:45 p.m., three Tulsa teens were at the beach when Earl went under the water, came back up and went under again.
Earl's body was recovered at 8 p.m. in 8 feet of water, about 30 feet from shore, with the help of a piece of equipment called a side scanner.
Makia Graves, 17, was riding on the shoulders of Kayla Barnett, 18, when Barnett waded into the water. Barnett stepped into a drop-off, which caused Graves to start struggling and Barnett to go under, according to OHP.
Troopers said Earl jumped in the water to help and drowned in the process.
An unknown bystander pulled Graves and Barnett from the water. Both had to be resuscitated before they were taken by EMSA to a Tulsa hospital and are listed in fair condition, OHP said.
