According the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC), nearly 50 percent of incoming medical students are women. Yet, an internal study completed in 2008 revealed that women fill about 37 percent of academic leadership positions and 34 percent of mid-level management roles at UMass Medical School and UMass Memorial Medical Center. While these numbers are better than AAMC averages, UMMS leadership is committed to dramatically improving those statistics and fostering an inclusive and diverse faculty; this commitment was formalized in the joint academic health sciences center strategic plan. . . .

Calculated height is too high
I am trying to figure out why the div .ContentSearch and .ContentMain have a calculated height of 1518px or 2014px respectively. The page is www.terraporta.cl/default.aspx.
Any clue ?
By the way I am aware that CSS check comes out with loads of error, mostly due to a component I am using.

Gardens are good for your health, right? In order to prove this scientifically, the Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens in Delray Beach, Fla., collaborated with the Lynn College of Nursing at Florida Atlantic University to create a program targeting a growing demographic: seniors over age 65 who are dealing with depression. A three-year study showed that walking in the gardens significantly reduced depression symptoms and led the museum to create a biannual program of guided-imagery walks.

The American Federation of Government Employees say the T.S.A. officer killed in a recent shooting in LAX, was actually not from Montana.
Police say 23-year-old Paul Ciancia shot and killed 39-year-old Gerardo Hernandez, and wounded several other people with a semi-automatic rifle inside of LAX.
The A.F.G.E. identified Hernandez as a "behavior detection officer" who was recently re-located from Montana.
But they are now saying that information is incorrect, because they originally thought Hernandez was another officer with a similar last name.
Instead, officials from the T.S.A. are saying that Hernandez was actually from Porter Ranch, California, a suburb of Los Angeles.

to Classical Tai Chi
Internal Discipline is the most challenging aspect of learning Tai Chi. The central element of the practice dictates how a movement should be made from the internal core of the body—the abdomen and the back—not from the external parts of the body, such as arms and shoulders.
This discipline is essential to obtain the full benefits of Tai Chi. Without it the entire logical structure of Tai Chi disintegrates and can no longer be considered an internal martial art.
Tai chi is known historically as an internal martial art with a legendary reputation of cultivating neigong or internal energy and thereby achieving exceptional health benefits. Unfortunately, this art has been lost in most modern tai chi teaching.
When the legendary Master Wu Chian Chuan taught Tai Chi to Grand Master Young Wabu, Wu taught him the methodology of cultivating neigong through Internal Discipline. Wu learned the Tai Chi from his father who learned from the Yangs—without alteration (see FAQ). The Yangs learned the art from the Chens. Internal Discipline should be a common thread through all the classical tai chi forms. And is of particular importance when one wants to develop the full health benefits of Tai Chi and to learn martial arts applications of Tai Chi.
Tai Chi Instructional DVD
Classical Tai Chi offers a unique set of Tai Chi DVDs produced by Master Stephen Hwa, student of Grand Master Young Wabu. This set of DVDs and this website are part of an effort to bring the splendor of Internal Discipline back into focus.

NEW Book by Master Hwa
Uncovering the Treasure
Classical Tai Chi's Path to Internal Energy & Health
The true health benefits and the foundation for martial arts application of Tai Chi can only be achieved when the practitioner incorporates "Internal Discipline". That is, using internal movements and internal power to direct and empower external movements into Tai Chi practice. This book outlines a methodology and training routine to achieve this goal.

Women in Pre-Code Film
Pre-production code films were made from 1929-1934. They were interesting, because they explored subjects that would be relevant in today's society. They had themes of violence, drug abuse, and sexuality. The thing that was so "naughty" about these films was that most of the sexual encounters were controlled by women. The actresses in these movies gave strong performances as intelligent, independent, and, yes, sexual people. The roles were such departures from the housewife/stereotypical characters women usually played in classic cinema.
There were some great actresses in pre-code films. There was Norma Shearer, Greta Garbo, and Barbara Stanwyck. Actresses got to personify the promiscuity of the typical "male stereotype," and turn it into many complex characters that were also successful and strong-willed. To me, it was so refreshing …

I agree with both of you. Yes, everyone is entitled to their opinion, but don't have stupid opinions. Nobody was saying last year let's trade away Daunte blah, blah, blah. He's gonna be with us for years to come, we just need to build around him.

"Next year we hope to make further improvements to the cameras, platform and project to enable the public to gain even greater enjoyment and involvement from 'our' birds."

People not watching on TV or going to see these races live has nothing to do with Rossi. I don't watch any more simply because it's boring. It's the same as F1, the slightest touch or great overtake and it's either a drive through penalty or a five or ten place grid drop! Who the hell wants to watch that rubbish?
I want to see elbows banging together. I want to see fairings being bashed together with paint being removed! All this mamby pamby, wrap me up in cotton wool rubbish is not what I call racing, it's called a ride out with mates!!
F1 has been ruined the same way, any accident and it's a stewards enquiry. I'm sorry but this isn't tennis, it's motor racing, with hard men battling to be the best and first to the finish line. Imagine Wayne Rainey and Kevin Schwantz racing with these rules? Moto GP would have died 20 years ago. Now it seems even more rules, points deducted for overtaking slightly to close, will put the last bullet in the dying sport we all once loved so passionately!

First some pre-requisites:
- JavaFX Runtime Environment
- Java Runtime Environment
- JavaFX SDK
- JavaFX Scene Builder
- JavaFX IDE – I had chosen NetBeans 7 as it already has support for JavaFX.
This can all be downloaded on the Oracle Website. You may google it.
Requirement: Create a simple application that accepts (you guess it) person details (simple registration), a custom web browser and some analytics.
Technology: JavaFX and JPA
Step 1: Create the Database and Tables
Simple Database and Table, download the SQL file: here
Step 2: Create the User Interface and specify the controller
Using the JavaFX Scene Builder, create the user interface.
Step 3: Development
Code the App!
NetBeans has its support for JPA – so I used it to interact with the database.
Download the source: here
Its basically a very simple application, but I think this sample will give you a brief introduction or a head start on how to actually develop an application using the platform.
Not a bad alternative if you want to create Desktop Applications, which of course, .net offers much better solution. Though the main take away here is that JavaFX redefines Java Desktop Application Development – flexible enough to support the best of both worlds (Desktop and Web) and if thats not enough, it also supports mobile phones.
Reference: JavaFX Tutorial – Basics from our JCG partner Alvin Reyes at the Alvin "Jay" Reyes Blog blog.
Java Essential Training
Author David Gassner explores Java SE (Standard Edition), the language used to build mobile apps for Android devices, enterprise server applications, and more!
The course demonstrates how to install both Java and the Eclipse IDE and dives into the particulars of programming. The course also explains the fundamentals of Java, from creating simple variables, assigning values, and declaring methods to working with strings, arrays, and subclasses; reading and writing to text files; and implementing object oriented programming concepts. Exercise files are included with the course.

Changing the way the world looks at supply chain ... one solution at a time.
With increased competition, growing product segments, more frequent new product launches and shorter product life cycles, managing an efficient and successful supply chain is becoming more challenging every day and retailers and manufacturers must be focused on maximizing every interaction with prospective customers, as consumers demand not only more value-conscious products, but also higher levels of service, greater quality, and enhanced shopping convenience.
NeoGrid solutions enable visibility and operational capability to support the fulfillment of demand at any node in the supply chain, including down to the store shelf, by letting everyone along the chain share valuable information that is critical to effectively respond to demand, thus reducing out-of-stocks, lowering overall inventory and bettering the consumer experience to deliver the high level of results, while strengthening relationships and building trust among retailers, suppliers and ultimately, the consumer.
NeoGrid Demand Planning & Replenishment suite allows retailers, suppliers and other supply chain partners to work together in true collaboration by providing increased flexibility throughout the entire supply chain. We help driving the comprehensive and accurate planning of inventory through collaborative forecasting, sales and operational planning, statistical forecasting, demand planning and event management-all to achieve immediate recognized value.
The reduction of inventory is an important part of managing working capital; therefore, to build competitive advantage, retailers and suppliers are increasingly focusing on supply chain efficiency to deliver cost savings. NeoGrid Replenishment solutions are proven to provide enhanced results on all these issues, through high-level, innovative solutions that go beyond what you ever thought possible.
NeoGrid Collaborative Managed Inventory is proven to provide enhanced results on all these issues, through high-level, innovative solutions that allow suppliers and retailers to shorten the orders cycle for the same item, improving turns and availability, going beyond what you ever thought possible.
NeoGrid DRP focuses organizations on driving a consumption-based replenishment process for a truly demand-driven supply network. This includes supply and distribution planning, and demand-driven replenishment, which allow supply chain partners to make feasible ordering decisions.
By creating a collaborative environment that ensures everyone is aligned with the same set up, performance and forecasting signals, this solution works to help better understand demand and generate a more efficient planning, forecasting and replenishment cycle across organizations.

FORT WORTH -- The Tarrant County Public Health Department announced no new confirmed cases of measles on Thursday afternoon, meaning the number of confirmed cases remains at 15. Denton County also confirmed no new cases, holding its tally firm at five.
But health officials were cautious, expressing concern that the number could go up in the coming days.
"We're not out of the woods," said Dr. Russell Jones with Tarrant County. "I suspect it is possible we could have more cases."
Meanwhile, local school districts are stepping up due diligence ahead of next week's return to classes.
Azle ISD said its 10 campus nurses and teachers will be keeping an extra eye over the student body, specifically the roughly 70 students that aren't fully immunized.
"Our nurses know who they are, and we will be careful," said Tanya Anderson, a district spokeswoman.
Azle is one of the districts that is close to the Eagle Mountain Church in Newark.
At least 20 cases of the measles have been traced back to a church visitor who attended a service after returning from an overseas trip in July.
The majority of the cases involve children who are home schooled. But other nearby districts are also taking precautions, just in case.
Northwest ISD has been in contact with Denton County health officials. About three percent of its students, or 670 to 680 children and teens, aren't fully vaccinated, said the district.
Eagle Mountain-Saginaw ISD could only provide partial data, saying at about a quarter of its campuses, less than one percent of the students weren't fully vaccinated. That averages out to about 140 students, give or take.
Under state law, students must get immunizations that cover the measles, but parents can opt out for religious reasons.

New York Knicks forward-center Amar'e Stoudemire will be suspended for one game unless the NBA rescinds a technical foul called in Thursday's loss to the Dallas Mavericks. Should the call stand, Stoudemire would have 16 on the season. Beginning with a player's 16th technical foul in a season, the NBA assesses a one-game suspension for every additional two techs.
Dwight Howard was suspended for the Orlando Magic's Monday game due to earning 16 techs. The Magic lost that game to the Portland Trail Blazers 89-85. Stoudemire was assessed a technical in the second quarter on Thursday after a minor joust with Mavericks center Brendan Haywood.
Haywood was also given a technical; the double-technical foul referees sometimes use to assert control over a chippy game has been reviled by some fans for years, but it's taken on increased importance this season as officials crack down on player complaints.
It cropped up a few weeks ago when Kings center DeMarcus Cousins was assessed a technical for complaining, and 10 minutes later was hit with a double-technical after jostling with an opponent trying to rebound a missed free throw. The call ruled Cousins out of the final minute of a tight game, and the Kings lost. The NBA later rescinded the second technical on Cousins, but that didn't solve the problem of losing the team's best player in crunch time.

By DON DARE 6 On Your Side Reporter
KNOXVILLE (WATE) - A state judge recommends that Morristown dentist Dr. Paul Muscari be stripped of his license, face a stiff fine and pay costs associated with his prosecution.
Administrative Judge J. Randall Lafevor writes that Dr. Muscari's violations are "many and substantial." He recommends that Dr. Muscari's license to practice dentistry in Tennessee "be revoked for no less than 20 years" and that he be fined $36,000.
The recommendations are detailed in a 39-page initial order.
Dr. Muscari's attorney, Willis Jackson, has until December 27 to appeal the civil penalties. If he doesn't, under the rules the initial order against his client becomes final.
"A great deal of this case has to do with money," Jackson said.
In late September during a two day hearing, Jackson argued that the charges against Dr. Muscari were the result of a disgruntled former employee and unhappy patients.
He also argued that patient complaints reported by 6 News since February 2007 encouraged litigation that contributed to civil charges against Dr. Muscari.
The state Department of Health's deputy general counsel David Himmelreich countered, "This is a case of betrayal of trust.
Himmelreich argued that Dr. Muscari failed his patients by not following the rules that govern his profession.
Taped testimony from state witness Dr. James Allen, a board certified prosthodontist, and Dr. Christina Honey, a general dentist, doomed Dr. Muscari's argument of innocence.
The two expert witnesses reviewed the care of patients like Kathleen Evans who complained that her implants didn't work.
They reviewed the charts of Francis Payne who said her upper crown bridge failed in a matter of weeks.
When it came to Polly Booth's story of badly-botched dental work, the experts read Dr. Muscari's charts and other pertinent information.
Based on their extensive reviews, Dr. Allen and Dr. Honey said that Dr. Muscari deviated from standards of care violated standards of professional conduct, and fell below the standards of care for diagnosis and treatment planning of his patients.
In his order, Judge Lafevor wrote that Dr. Muscari was "not a credible witness" during his hearing, that "he was evasive on cross examination," and "gave misleading or false information to patients about a number of matters."
Also, Judge Lafevor said Dr. Muscari's assertions that my own testimony would reveal "improper influence" with the dentist's patients was overzealous and wrong.
The judge says contrary to Dr. Muscari's contentions:
This isn't the first time Dr. Muscari has been in trouble with the state dental board.
In May 2004, his license was suspended as a result of complaints. But six months later, the dental board lifted the suspension and placed him on probation.
In this new order, Judge Lafevor writes that "probation and rehabilitation have failed." He concludes the protection of public health, safety and welfare requires that Dr. Muscari's license be revoked this time.
Dr. Muscari's attorney said he's "never seen a punishment this harsh," and he has "not yet received instructions" from his client on whether to appeal.
If Dr. Muscari does appeal, the dental board may hear the matter at its next scheduled meeting at the end of January.

What's in the box: Woody Mid-Handle Speargun,Shaft 756-SAE,Slings Three 328E Bands
The JBL Mid-Handle series guns maximize power and band stretch on a traditional open muzzle Mahogany stock, allowing for consistent, controllable accuracy and manageable recoil, while extending range and optimizing efficiency.
The 56" Magnum stock is perfect for longer range hunting conditions, where power and shot distance are important but conditions do not allow for length band stretch. The 62" 450 Magnum is set up strictly for high powered shots at long range, where only range and penetration count.
Because the mid-handle style optimizes the entire length of the gun, moving the trigger mechanism all of the way to the rear of the stock, mass and recoil are spread across a more manageable surface, and forward extension is minimized. For conditions like kelp beds or paddies, large reef game in clear water, or fast moving pelagic game, there is no choice but a mid-handle gun.
Featuring Bill Kitto's state of the art M8 trigger mechanism, the Elite Mid-handle line from JBL provides custom performance and high end longevity at an extremely competitive price point. Both Magnum and Magnum 450 models come with a 5/16" spring steel flopper shaft and 3 5/8" diameter black power bands. JBL Elite and Mid-Handle series guns come with a Limited 1 Year warranty.
This product has a limited warranty of 12 months.

Can we do more with less ?
Virgil Middle School on Vermont Ave near the 101 Freeway is about 100 years old. Yet, to look at it, you'd never know it. That's because the staff there places a high priority on maintenance, on trash pickup, on keeping the environment clean and conducive to learning. In fact, they even have some beautiful rose bushes out in front, though the full time gardener is long gone due to budget cuts that have trimmed a maintenance staff from 12 to 6.
They have to '' get creative'' , and sometimes that means the principal installs the movie screen in the third floor classroom rather than waiting months for the one carpenter assigned to this area to get to it.
I spent some time at Virgil today, and they clearly take a lot of pride in their school (though they are really annoyed that a malfunctioning alarm control panel has been beeping mysteriously for a year, defying repairmen.)
I was there as a follow up to the story we did this past Friday focusing on a new Facebook page called ''repairs not Ipads'' where teachers have posted nasty photos of problems in schools that have gone unrepaired for far too long.
When I asked if I could go to a school with issues, and accompany a repair crew, they came up with Virgil and a repair of some ceiling tiles. Not exactly an emergency, but It was a repair.
If you want to know why they are spending a billion (eventually) on Ipads, while repairs go undone, it's complicated, but the short answer is the money comes from a different source of funds.
Bond money has been earmarked, at least a small part of it, for technological improvements, which Superintendent Deasy managed to get broadened to include Ipads.
The maintenance money basically comes from the general fund. The schools say they have about $99 million a year for that, and need about $400 million, for 900 schools with about 250 -300 thousand calls for service a year.
Well, why can't we take more of that bond money which voters approved for '' construction and modernization'' and use it for repairs in a creative way ? The short answer, to me, seems to be that we could, but no one has managed to formulate the required re-interpretation of bond money usage and figure out how to force it through the school board. Yet.

Millions of dollars of federal Community Development Block Grants was announced Friday in West Springfield. Thirty-eight communities around Massachusetts shared $31 million for public projects, housing rehabilitation and local infrastructure.
West Springfield was chosen to receive $900,000, the maximum amount allowable.
Gov. Deval Patrick was scheduled to deliver remarks, but was not able to attend because he was stuck in traffic on the Massachusetts Turnpike. Patrick delivered a message to the crowd over speaker phone.
The process was very selective, and only a handful of communities were selected said Aaron Gornstein, undersecretary for Housing and Community Development. He also said communities get to decide how the money would be spent.
West Springfield Mayor Gregory Neffinger said the money will be spent on rehabilitating 13 homes, code enforcement, sidewalks in the Merrick-Memorial neighborhood and for several social services programs. Those programs included ESOL, camp scholarships, Head Start, family self-sufficiency counseling and home buyer education.

Dougherty County law enforcers passed a 'Flame of Hope' Friday for a statewide Special Olympics awareness movement.
The Law Enforcement Torch Run is one of the largest fundraiser for Special Olympics, Georgia. The run kicked off at the Dougherty County Courthouse at 8:30AM and ended five miles later at the Publix Super Market on Dawson Road.
The financial goal for the event across the state is three-quarters of a million dollars to help send special Olympians and their families to state games.
"Everything is electric that whole weekend," said Kristin Caso of the Albany Parks and Rec. Dept. "The athletes competing, the award ceremonies, the families and here in Albany, the one thing that blew everyone away was the amount of citizens that just came in to watch the competitions."
Georgias' State Summer Olympic Games open up a week from today at Emory University.

Sweetie met her intended mate, Sunshine, at Edinburgh Zoo just a day ago.
Sunshine did some stretching and handstands to show his attractiveness.
Sparks flew, there was "vocalization," lots of encouragement, some physical contact, but the prospective lovers did not close the deal.
Which puts an end to the Panda birth hopes for a year, since the Giant Panda only comes into season for 36 hours a year!
Although both Sweetie and Sunshine have been parents before they're still inexperienced with each other.
So, they've got another 363 days to get used to each other.
Meanwhile, they're munching their way through nearly 110 pounds of bamboo a day.
