Big businesses are finding out they have something in common with their smaller counterparts. Both like to save cash, and both like to be prepared in the event of a disaster. And they have an affinity for the cloud.
A recent article in the Wall Street Journal found large organizations are adopting cloud technology for many of the same reasons held by smaller organizations: greater flexibility and cost savings, resiliency in the face of natural disasters and the ability to implement new technologies without long-term commitment. While they acknowledge concerns about cyber-security, they believe they can safely pursue their cloud strategies while taking appropriate precautions.
"For every application, we look at whether the cloud can be used, and at that moment we look at all aspects, including security. When all criteria are met we will launch on the cloud and therefore we believe that the cloud is secure enough for a number of scenarios," said Johan Krebber, Shell group IT architect and lead architect for the Projects and Technology Business, according to the Journal.
While Shell maintains the majority of its IT on its own data centers, "we already have quite a lot of computer resources that we use in the cloud," Krebber said.
Rackspace Reduces Prices for Network Bandwidth, Storage
Looking to shave off some of the costs associated with content delivery and cloud storage? Rackspace recently announced price cuts that can help you do just that.
Rackspace lowered its cloud storage prices for volume customers, and it will lower prices on its network bandwidth and content delivery services, the company recently announced.
Rackspace reduced pricing 33 percent, from $0.18 to $0.12 per GB, for moving data and content over its Rackspace Cloud network and the Rackspace content delivery network (CDN), according to an article on Informationweek.com.
Enterprises and online information services use CDNs to pre-distribute key content to Internet servers around the world, owned by CDNs such as Akamai or Edgecast, so that response times to users seeking that content will come from a server close to them. When content is downloaded from a server in the same region as the user, response times can be cut by a third or half.
Rackspace CTO John Engates said Rackspace uses a simpler pricing model than some of its competitors and contains no "hidden" charges, such as a fee for hard-to-predict calls to the storage API or I/O charges.
"We've taken everything out that customers won't recognize up front. We don't want customer surprises. We don't want to get into the game of nickel and diming customers," he said.
Survey: Cloud Boosts Next Generation of Startups
If you have a business or product you're looking to bring to the masses without breaking the bank, the cloud may be the vehicle in which to take it to them.
According to a new survey, cloud computing isn't just potentially driving savings and flexibility for existing organizations; it's also laying the groundwork for a new generation of business startups.
A study of 1,300 U.S. and executives in the U.K., conducted by Rackspace Hosting with support from Manchester Business School in the U.K., finds cloud engagements are delivering positive impacts, from cost savings to more innovation, according to an article on Forbes.com. The survey also reveals that most of these executives see cloud as laying the groundwork for the next entrepreneurial boom.
Sixty-two percent of respondents either agreed totally or somewhat with the statement that "cloud computing is a key factor in the recent boom of entrepreneurs and start-ups," the survey found. Twenty-five percent agreed strongly with this idea.
Many respondents are speaking from experience - 43 percent of the group say their businesses were launched just within the past three years. A majority of respondents with startups in the survey, 52 percent, said they would have not have been able to afford on-premises IT resources, or would have had difficulty acquiring computer systems, if it weren't for cloud computing. In fact, 43 percent say the availability of cloud-based resources has made it "a lot easier" to set up their businesses.

Georgia, Tbilisi, 2 May / Trend N.Kirtzkhalia /
The National Olympic Committee of Georgia has adopted a decision at an extraordinary meeting to participate in the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi. As reported by the NOC, the decision was taken unanimously.
At least 46 delegates, representatives of various sports federations participated in the voting process, the committee reported.
NOC President Leri Khabelov congratulated everyone with the decision. "We made it based on consideration of sport and I am glad the preparations of our Olympic team have not passed by in vain" he said, wishing the athletes a good performance in Sochi.
Georgia will send a formal request to participate in the Winter Olympics in Sochi to the IOC by May 7.
It should be noted that Georgia and Russia have no diplomatic relations.
Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili had previously mentioned the possibility of boycotting the Sochi Olympics.
Large scale military action was launched in South Ossetia in Georgia on August 8 2008. Later Russian troops occupied Tskhinvali and expelled the Georgian military. Russia recognised the independence of South Ossetia and Abkhazia in late August. Tbilisi ended diplomatic relations with Moscow in response and has announced the two unrecognised republics to be occupied territories.

Space Bomb
America's space program isn't what it used to be, but at least our Space Bomb remains number one! Platinum Clouds dispensary in San Jose offers this fruity, sour, dank example of world-class genetics. Breeder TGA Subcool crossed surprise hit Tiny Bomb and Tiny Bomb's parent, Space Queen. Space Queen herself is the indica Romulan bred with the bastard of Jack Herer, C-99. Very light green with light orange hairs, trichomes flock off these well-cured nugs. Sour-candy dankness to the nose, Space Bomb burns light, offering a spacey sativa effect in the head. Advanced medicine for stress and pain, the 60/40 sativa-dominant hybrid has found fans among long-time cannabis patients seeking relief from depression and anxiety, as well. However, it's unsuitable for patients hoping to avoid effects like euphoria. This is straight rocket fuel.

Annually, the beginning of October marks the start of the enhanced surveillance for seasonal influenza and other respiratory viruses in the United Kingdom (UK). In previous years the peak of influenza activity has occurred between October and March in the UK and the impact of the disease on the population has been dependent on the strain of influenza circulating that year. All indices used to monitor influenza activity in the UK are currently well below base line levels.
The data collected by the enhanced influenza surveillance carried out by the Health Protection Agency (HPA) Centre for Infections is summarised in regular influenza reports
<http://www.hpa.org.uk/infections/topics_az/influenza/seasonal/default.htm>, which provide comprehensive information on the clinical and virological indicators of influenza activity throughout the influenza season, up to week 20 2007. Reports will initially be published fortnightly on a Wednesday.
Vaccine supply
The Department of Health has informed all GPs that while the requested amount of influenza vaccine will be produced this winter, it will be supplied between October and December as a result of initial delays in production [1]. 15 million doses will be available in the UK to cover vaccination of all people at high risk but some persons may not receive their vaccine until late in the year. As in previous years, the HPA will be monitoring the uptake of vaccine in England, on behalf of the Department of Health. Last winter over 75% of people aged 65 or more were vaccinated, the highest rate since monitoring was introduced in 2000. Further information can be obtained at <http://www.hpa.org.uk/infections/topics_az/influenza/seasonal/monitoring.htm>.

A case of food-borne botulism occurred in the Republic of Ireland in September 2006. Since the beginning of 2003, there have been a further four cases of food-borne botulism in the United Kingdom (UK) and the Republic of Ireland [1]. Three of these five incidents involved Polish nationals, and were associated with the consumption of home prepared meat products originating from Poland.
In 2003, a male Polish national living in England developed botulism and subsequently died, having eaten a home prepared meat product ('bigosh') brought from Poland. Botulinum neurotoxin serotype B [BoNTB] was detected in serum samples collected prior to death. The second incident occurred in a male Polish national living in England in 2005 who developed botulism within 24 hours of consuming home preserved pork originally prepared in Poland. Clostridium botulinum type B and BoNTB were recovered from the patient's faeces and from the jar of home preserved pork. The patient was treated with antitoxin and made a complete recovery. The preserved pork had been home slaughtered, bottled, stored at room temperature for several months in Poland prior to bringing to England for consumption. The most recent incident affected a Polish national living in the Republic of Ireland who developed symptoms of botulism after consuming home prepared pork which again originated in Poland. C. botulinum type A/B was isolated from the patient faeces and from a sample of home preserved pork. The patient received antitoxin and is making steady progress.
Of the remaining two cases of food-borne botulism reported in the UK, one was associated with UK commercially prepared hummus, and the final case with recent travel to Georgia. Readers should be aware of the increase in incidence of food botulism associated with the consumption of home prepared meat products from eastern European countries, which have much higher rates of food-borne botulism than either the UK or the Republic of Ireland [2,3]. The main vehicles for botulism transmission are meat dishes, and in particular home preserved pork in bottling jars. Clinicians should be aware of the possible increased risk of botulism among migrant workers from eastern Europe.

In the autumn of 2005 there was an increase in cases of human cryptosporidiosis together with two outbreaks putatively linked to public water supplies in South England and North Wales. These outbreaks led the Drinking Water Inspectorate (DWI) to instruct water companies to review their cryptosporidium risk assessments for surface water-derived treatment works by 30 April 2006. DWI also provided guidance on risk assessment criteria, monitoring and communications. DWI undertook to review the relevant regulations in light of any lessons learnt from companies' revised risk assessments and from the reports of the outbreak control teams. In the interim, the Health Protection Agency (HPA) was commissioned by DWI to produce a report updating knowledge on cryptosporidiosis (epidemiology and health surveillance data) since the publication of the Bouchier Report in 1998 [1]. The DWI has now published this report on the epidemiology of cryptosporidiosis produced by the Health Protection Agency, the National Public Health Service for Wales, and the University of East Anglia [2].
Cryptosporidium causes diarrhoea in people of all ages, but is most common in young children. Disease can be severe in people with an immune deficiency, particularly involving severe depletion of T-cell count and function [3]. Seasonal increases in the spring and autumn have been observed each year between 1989 to 2000, but since then, the spring peak of cases of cryptosporidiosis has declined, whereas no similar reduction has been observed in the autumn peak. Although the foot and mouth disease outbreak contributed to the decline in cases in the spring of 2001 [4,5] the reduction continues to be apparent. There is now good evidence to support the view that this is due to investment in new or improved water treatment, including first time filtration, particularly in the North West of England [6].
Regulatory monitoring data since 1999 have shown that water supplies may occasionally contain very low numbers of Cryptosporidium oocysts. The significance of these is unclear because the oocysts may be non-viable or may be of a species that are not very infectious for humans. It also remains possible, however, that low oocyst counts of highly infectious isolates represent a risk to public health.
The routes by which people in the second half of the year become infected require further investigation, but swimming pools and foreign travel both appear to be important. The reference genotyping of isolates of Cryptosporidium to species level has proved important to understanding the distribution of the two main species (C. parvum and C. hominis) within the human population and in identifying species-specific risk factors [7].
In 2006 Cryptosporidium cases have increased in August and September (Figure 1) and so far show similar numbers at this time of year to those in four out of five years between 2001 and 2005. As in previous years, this rise in cases is mainly caused by C. hominis.

The Department of Health in England has published the Code of practice for the prevention and control of healthcare associated infection as part of the implementation of The Health Act 2006 [1]. An earlier draft of the code was published in July, and the Code has subsequently been restructured and shortened.
The purpose of the Code is to help NHS bodies plan and implement how they can prevent and control healthcare associated infections (HCAI). It sets out criteria by which managers of NHS organisations and other health care providers should ensure that patients are cared for in a clean environment, where the risk of HCAI is kept as low as possible. The Healthcare Commission will be using this code to assess NHS performance, and similar requirements will be introduced for the private and voluntary healthcare sector and care homes.

FBI agents on Monday arrested the former Collin Street Bakery accountant accused of embezzling more than $16 million from the renowned fruitcake maker.
Sandy Jenkins was taken into custody on a federal criminal complaint charging him with mail fraud. Jenkins, 64, has appeared before a judge and waived his detention hearings.
The arrest comes about three weeks after the FBI first searched the Coriscana man's home, where he lives with his wife Kay. On July 24, agents hauled off a driveway full of pricy cars and took boxes of records. The FBI then changed his locks.
On July 31, Corisicana police responded to a burglary call at Jenkins' home. When they arrived, however, they found that Jenkins was the one who broke into it. Police could not arrest him because the FBI had not filed charges, only changed his locks.
That changed Monday, the feds say. Jenkins was the corporate accountant of the Coriscana-based Collin Street Bakery, world famous for its fruitcakes and cookies. In June, an assistant discovered a company check made out to an unfamiliar bank.
This piqued her interest.
She kept investigating, eventually finding that hundreds of thousands of dollars were being diverted to pay for an extravagant lifestyle led by Jenkins and his wife, according to the complaint. The feds say their lifestyle dotted with cars worth $200,000 and vacations at exotic locales.
Eventually, federal documents say, the assistant found that more than $16 million had been siphoned from the company from 2005 to June 21, 2013, the day Jenkins was fired.
"In particular, Jenkins caused Collin Street Bakery checks to be written to his personal creditors and then manipulated Collin Street Bakery's computerized accounting system to show that the checks had been voided," wrote FBI spokeswoman Kathy Colvin in a release.
The FBI says Jenkins bought a house in Santa Fe, N.M. They say he had 43 "luxury automobiles." When he took a vacation, the feds say he frequently flew in private planes. He also apparently had a $3 million jewelry collection.
"The government's investigation shows that Jenkins caused 888 fraudulent checks to be sent to his personal creditors, resulting in approximately $16.65 million in losses to the bakery," Colvin writes.
According to the criminal complaint, the Corsicana Police Department passed the case off to the FBI on June 26. Five days prior, Robert McNutt, the president of Collin Street Bakery, confronted Jenkins alongside his vice president of finance and information services and an off-duty sheriff's deputy.
They showed Jenkins the voided checks. Upon seeing them, he "looked like a ghost."
He's accused of paying more than $11 million of Collin Street Bakery's money to American Express. Citi Card received $1.9 million, the affidavit says. Neiman Marcus ended up with nearly $1.12 million.
The mail fraud, the complaint alleges, came from Jenkins' propensity to shore up his debts by using the United States Postal Service. The document says Jenkins ordered a company accountant to overnight payments to his creditors.
"Collin Street Bakery provided this information to the FBI Dallas Division, along with the corresponding bank statement showing that the fraudulent check had been cashed and the image of the cashed check paid to Jenkins' creditors for his personal benefit," the affidavit reads.
The government now has 30 days to present the case to a grand jury. If indicted and convicted, Jenkins could face 20 years in federal prison and a $250,000 fine for each count.

Yesterday, I tried to insert my 124 characters of ad copy into the text box of a Facebook Marketplace Ad. To my surprise, some of the text got cut off. I thought perhaps my browser had frozen or something strange had happened along those lines, so I refreshed. That didn't help. I then noticed that the copy had been cut off at 90 characters. At that point little bells went off in my head. I know that Page Post Ads (or Premium Ads) have a character limit of 90 characters – what if all ads were now restricted to only 90 characters?After a little investigation I found out that, sure enough, the character limit of Marketplace Ads has now been reduced to 90 characters. Now this may make these ads more appealing to users who don't have to read a longer copy, but I do wish we had been notified a little in advance. While whispers of this change have been heard in the digital world, nothing official has been communicated by Facebook to their advertisers at this time.
Luckily enough, un-loaded ads are easily edited and it doesn't look as though the ads already running have been impacted.
The Changes Don't End There
After doing a bit of digging, it also seems that the image sizes will be made smaller, with normal Marketplace Ads being reduced from 110x80px to 99x72px. Other types of Facebook ads are being affected as well:
- Premium Ads will remain limited to 90 characters but the image sizes will be changed to 100x80px
- Sponsored Stories will have an image size of 168x28px.
What Does This Mean for Facebook Advertisers?
- Ad copy will need to be punchier. Luckily we've always played around with the length of our ads so we are fairly used to this, and only slight adjustments will need to be made.
- Images need to be easier to digest.
- Marketplace Ads may get a bit lost – but that is why ad copy really needs to be attention grabbing.
- You have to think more about your users and what will appeal to them. You can't really be too gimmicky anymore (well, hopefully you never were!).
All in all, I don't really think it's a bad thing. In fact, it is probably a positive move, since Facebook is now forcing their advertisers to concentrate more on their users, and what they want.

CNBC Screengrab
No seriously, he and Jim Cramer are tearing it up, and it all started out with a hilarious exchange between the two.
Cramer sat down for the interview and immediately said: How many people in this room, besides me and you, are wearing a wire?
Bharara: Is that your first question?
After the laughter died down Bharara threw out his own zingers:
"I'm pleased to be interviewed by the only person in this country who's more caffeinated than I am," he said obviously referring to Cramer.
And even better.
"I have to apologize that there are so many people in the audience I don't have enough subpoenas for all of you."
The audience loved it.

Maintaining the capabilities of the nuclear weapons stockpile and performing the annual assessment for the stockpile's certification involves a wide range of processes, technologies, and expertise. An important and valuable framework helping to link those components is the quantification of margins and uncertainties (QMU) methodology.
In this book, the National Research Council evaluates:
This book presents an assessment of each of these issues and includes findings and recommendations to help guide laboratory and NNSA implementation and development of the QMU framework. It also serves as a guide for congressional oversight of those activities.

Pilot wire installations utilise an additional control wire linked between each heater. This is a 240V live conductor, carrying a low current signal to activate the various modes on the heater electronic control. Up to 20 heaters per zone can be supported (dependent on controller).
This system is ideal for new build applications as the pilot wire can be installed with the first fix wiring. As heaters require no additional receivers, this offers a cost-effective means of central control.
Mains borne signalling (MBS) uses the standard twin and earth wiring in the domestic supply circuit to carry a modulated signal between each heater. A receiver cassette is required in each slave heater to decode the signal. Unique electronic identity codes in each programmer prevent interference with receivers in different zones/buildings and negate the need for additional mains filtering.
This system is ideal for use in existing buildings where it is not possible to install an additional hard wired connection between heaters.
Note: Heaters and programmers should be installed on the same supply circuit, connected to the same phase. For a 3ph installation a phase coupler should be used.
These are the programmers, each heater then needs a suitable receiver;
For the DIMRXPW4 Pilot wire programmer use the DIMRX9911
And for the DIMRXMBS Mains borne programmer use the DIMRX9913

WORCESTER, Mass. (MyFoxBoston.com) – The city of Worcester and Mass Gaming & Entertainment said they're ending negotiations that would bring a slot parlor to the city.
Both sides said that it recently became clear that a mutually satisfactory host community agreement could not be reached.
At an April public hearing many community members and business owners said they opposed the proposed $240 million parlor at the vacant 14-acre Wyman-Gordon industrial property.
Advocates said the slot parlor would bring 600 jobs and millions in tax revenue to the area.

text: Raiders fans whats up, just a Jags fan from big cat country and an extremely competitive fantasy football player probably like most of you and looking if some of you could answer some of my questions. I figured this site would give me the most accurate answers as you guys are probably as big as fans as it gets. Personally, I love McFadden I think he is a top 3 overall running back in the NFL along Adrian Peterson and MJD. Obviously the only thing stopping his rank becoming higher is his "injury prone" status. Hes obviously never played a full season before and I think this could potentially be the first. If I do take him, I would 100% handcuff him and this is why I am coming here to your site. I need to know who is your clear cut backup. I loved Taiwan Jones coming out of college and think he is an absolute steal for you guys. Is he the backup and would take the load for say DMC gets injured. Or would Mike Goodson challenge him/split carries with him. Any input or valid information/opinions on DMC or the running back situation would be greatly appreciated. I wish you guys the best of luck this year and hope you absolutely demolish the Chargers week 1 at the Coliseum.

On Media Center, Windows 8, and live TV versus streaming video, and discs
I think Media Center was a great idea at first, it aimed to deliver a great centralized media experience. But I've found the experience to be sub-par when I've used it for live TV.
Tuner Issues
I use a cheap TV tuner I got from Best Buy. It is certified for Media Center use, my computer brings up the right drivers immediately when I plug it in. It's recognized in Media Center. But, it doesn't work all the time. I constantly get this error message of "Low bit rate". I've set up Live TV over and over again and these issues happen from time to time (and I've updated the drivers, I've reinstalled Windows 7, updated Windows 7, etc). It's been a bad experience overall, and I don't think it's necessarily the tuner, probably the drivers are the big culprit.
So let's put it this way, I don't blame Media Center or Microsoft for this issue. It's probably the drivers that the manufacturer supplied to Microsoft. But there's really a genuine problem here: inconsistency in the experience. Some tuners will work great with Media Center, others will be terrible. I wish Media Center could be the best experience you can get with or without these kinds of driver issues.
Setting up live TV on Media Center is a bag of hurt
It takes longer than 30 minutes just to set up Media Center live TV. It is pretty simplified, as it will download your location setup options. The problem is that you can't save a profile or something of your setup, so it's useless to use it in more than one location. And you can't export settings from one computer to another to save time if you reinstall Windows or go to another computer. It takes a long time, scans for channels when you probably don't need to, and I guess I would want some kind of "reinstall" option for my tuner or reset or something so I may be able to fix the low bitrate problems.
Streaming video, wave of the future?
So I'd like to contrast my TV experience with streaming video. Netflix will be my comparison. So, Netflix doesn't offer every video I want, but it does work every time, it's fast, the stream starts very very quickly usually, the quality seems good (as good as my TV (720p). I can call up what I want and I don't need to wait or anything for the show to start, like you do with TV. I've not had any real issue streaming video on Netflix. The downside is that you don't have live TV content available, that's only with IPTV. I did use IPTV on Xbox on Fios, and it was actually a pretty good experience, though I think that was a bit clunky since it was an Xbox interface and not a conventional TV interface and remote.
So really, what I'd like to say is that there seems to be little to no issue when I use Netflix or other services, whereas I think Media Center and live TV just aren't as seamless and easy to use. As long as I have a good internet connection, I think it'd be pointless to go towards live TV instead of streaming TV. What I wish is that we can get more IPTV (and especially get it unbundled from Fios TV).
So my thought here is that streaming TV and IPTV should be our new emphasis, which brings me to...
Windows 8
Windows 8 will unbundle Media Center from all versions. This is because the cost of licensing each codec costs money, and drives up the cost of each license of Windows. It may not really lower the cost to the end user, that is true, but with OEMs like HP considering getting out of the PC business, I suspect that it has to do with OEM licensing more than anything. OEMs don't often include TV tuners, some aren't including DVD players anymore, and most of the new PCs I've seen still have DVD software bundled in despite Windows having DVD playback built in.
But with streaming video becoming the new hot thing, I expect that it won't really matter too much about live TV. DVD playback will be a non-issue (UNLESS, you're building your own computer and you have DVD drive still, in which case you'll have to provide your own playback software).
So really, I think it makes sense they would unbundle the Media Center from Windows 8 for this one reason: few people are even using Media Center, and many won't care about DVD playback not being built into Windows (since it will be done by OEMs who continue to offer DVD players).
Discs, bag of hurt, or sack of pain?
When live TV works, it's pretty convenient, but DVDs? Not convenient. Whenever I can, I want to stream, because I don't have to go to the store or anything to buy the disc, I don't have to rent it, or use Netflix DVDs. DVDs take up actual space, streaming doesn't. I can stream many movies or rent from Amazon or iTunes and whatever, but buying DVDs takes up time to actually find the movie in store and buy it. I can download movies too from iTunes or Amazon.
But on the other hand, many more movies are available on DVD than through the internet. I can buy DVDs anywhere (like airports or convenience stores, though they may have bad selections), but I will need an internet connection that has no data cap to download movies (if I was going on a plane I would need to download, obviously I couldn't stream).
Blu-Rays are probably higher quality than you can get from streaming. I haven't even seen any Blu-Rays to be honest. I haven't cared too much, I only have used my computer which doesn't have a Blu-Ray drive, and I didn't care to pay so much extra for a Blu Ray drive.
Show *ALL* the digital media!
I guess it could be argued that Windows 8 should be the center of your digital life: it should do live TV, DVDs, Blu-Rays, and streaming. But what I've thought recently is that it's unrealistic to expect that everyone will use their computer in this way (as an HTPC). I think the idea of your computer sitting on the living room floor kinda sucks, so people just haven't done it. It's extra cost for a computer, though it obviously is more capable than TiVo or Google TV. It's harder to set-up, use, and maintain. So for the living room, people want something simple to handle TV and discs and streaming. So that's why I think it's better to offer Media Center as an add-on: people just aren't typically using their Windows PCs like an HTPC. And I don't think people are sitting in front of their desks to watch movies, so if they have a desktop they probably aren't using it for media. I know my parents are not like that, they watch TV on the TV and DVDs with the DVD player, while the computer is strictly used for computer stuff.
Hopes for the future
So lastly, I'd say that Media Center is actually nice for what it does, but it needs to evolve into something new for Windows 8. I want IPTV like on the Xbox Fios app, I want more Metro apps that will handle video streaming through Netflix and others. And let's get that into a Windows RT based TV. I can imagine TVs with ARM processors running Windows RT, and getting streaming video apps and IPTV. This would be a dream of mine, to get Metro on my future TV. I could probably give up conventional TV services if I could get full IPTV. Then I could use only wifi to get TV all over my house. That sounds to me the direction we're going in.
I just hope Microsoft has that kind of initiative with regards to digital TV. I hope we can get all of our devices to do IPTV: Xbox, Windows Phone, Windows 8, Windows RT, etc. Let's hope they can deliver this kind of 21st century TV experience for all their various devices and do it well.

WACO - Baylor University officials announced on Thursday it has received a $1.46 million grant from the National Institutes of Health for Cancer Research.
The grant is awarded to two Baylor researchers who will be able to design, create and test several new potential new cancer fighting compounds that may disrupt solid-cancer tumors and target any remaining tumor cells that may grow after the tumor is treated.
Dr. Kevin G. Pinney, professor of chemistry and biochemistry in the Baylor College of Arts and Sciences and Dr. Mary Lynn Trawick, an associate professor of chemistry and biochemistry, will work in collaboration with University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas.
"We are one of the few programs in the world working with these particular compounds and with the collaboration with UT Southwestern, I think this research project was very attractive to NIH," Pinney said. "This project will give us some deeper insight into these compounds that, in the future, might lead to clinical trials."
The research will be completed in three stages over the next five years.
In the first phase, Pinney and Trawick will test three compounds known as Vascular Disrupting Agents to see how tolerable they are in animal models and how well the compounds actually disrupt blood flow to the tumor.
The second phase will consist of designing, creating and testing a carefully selected small group of potential new cancer fighting compounds that may disrupt solid-cancer tumors.
The third phase will look into the cell mechanisms of each of the new compounds. The Baylor researchers said many questions remain unanswered, to date, in regard to how VDAs actually function on a molecular level in terms of cell signaling pathways.
"We will be comparing and studying the cells and proteins to see just how potent they are to cancer which could eventually lead to new drug discovery," Trawick said. "We are looking at selectivity – how do they disrupt cancer tumors and how well do they do it."

Of Mice and Men tells the story of George (James Franco) and Lennie (Chris O'Dowd), an unlikely pair of friends drifting from job to job across the farms and fields of California, holding fast to their dream of one day having an acre of land they can call their own.
Of Mice and Men is one of the most read books in schools across the country despite appearing on the American Library Association's list of Most Challenged Books of the 21st Century.
Of Mice and Men began as a novella published in 1937 by Nobel Prize winning author John Steinbeck.
Of Mice and Men was adapted for the screen several times and adapted as a radio play for the BBC. The first stage production was directed by George S. Kaufman in 1937 and ran for 207 performances.

Happy Monday : )
We're back, after taking a week off of all Social Media outlets including ours!
Wow, keeping up with all that, can be daunting & also very time consuming! (We've also been super busy with something we hope to be sharing very soon !!!)
If you're like me, you browse Social Media for one specific reason and an hour or two later you've been sidetracked in a dozens different directions!
(And all I really, really want to do is paint and make pretty furniture : )
Oh well!
The last month or so we've been busier than usual helping clients with some of our
"Getting Ready to be reNEWed" furniture.
What is our "Getting Ready to be reNEWed"?
It's a little corner on our blog where we post
photos of our recent finds & treasures. A
little bit of everything... antique, vintage, and some pieces with just good bones!
You might say it's our holding area : )
It gives us a little time to envision the piece(s) and also gives you the opportunity to have us customize the furniture however YOU may envision it. You decide what the finished piece will look like after the reNEWing process by your choice of paint color, glazing, distressing & fabric.
If you've been following us here on our blog or on our Facebook page, you just may have noticed that some of our "Sold furniture" never quite makes it onto our "Getting Ready to be reNEWed"
Why is that?1. We have either been on the hunt for a particular furniture item that we already have a vision for
2. We find a specific items that fits the need of someone who had previously contacted us.
So you've seen a particular furniture pieces you think you may like?
Now what?
That's when the fun begins and also a barrage of emails. Well, may be not a barrage but at the very least a dozen or so.
If you know how you would like the item reNEWed, great! However, if you are like many others and have a hard time visualizing, we will happily help you through the process.
If you know how you would like the item reNEWed, great! However, if you are like many others and have a hard time visualizing, we will happily help you through the process.
All we need from you, is a few photos of your space where the furniture piece will go. And it's also very helpful to get any photos you may have saved from favorite websites ie; Pinterest, Houzz etc. The more photos we have... the better sense we'll have on your decorating style.
Here's two recent pieces we finished customizing for clients. It just so happens, both dressers will be used as changing tables in the nursery.
One for a precious baby girl
The other for a baby boy destined for adventure : )
And just a few of the custom projects we're working on now...
1. Dining table with customers own base added to one of our table tops.
2. Antique shield back chairs
3. Antique desk
2. Antique shield back chairs
3. Antique desk
*We typically will have our "Getting Ready to be reNEWed" furniture listed a few weeks before we begin the reNEWing process.
Although a few have been in the holding area for sometime.... due to the extensive prepping that will need to be done (stripping) Ugh!!!
*We encourage you to come take a look at the furniture before the reNEWing begins. We want you to know exactly what you're getting and be 100% thrilled with the finished product!
And for those coming from the city (80% of our clientele) think of it as a beautiful drive out to the country.
If we've inspired you in the slightest way to take on your own project we would love to hear from you and photos are a bonus!
Have a great week &
Thanks for Looking : )

UPDATE: Fruit of the Loom is dropping off 4 truck loads of undergarments on Friday.
Staten Island Borough President James Molinaro says the people of his community are in desperate need of fresh underwear.
"It's like a third-world nation," Molinaro said in a phone interview on Tuesday's Good Day New York.
He says so much other clothing has been donated that they are not accepting anymore.
"What we do need right now is underwear; undergarments for children and adults," Molinaro says. "That we need desperately."
Molinaro says that people can bring underwear to Miller Field on Father Capodanno Blvd. or New Dorp Lane.
The Borough President is very concerned about the storm that is expected to hit the island on Thursday.
"The protection we had at the shoreline is all gone," Molinaro says. "A lot of our berms are gone."
He says a five foot storm surge could create new devastation.
"The problem that we're having is that there are so many people without electric, in homes that are partially destroyed, they're afraid of looters and we have to reach them."
As for the election, he says that is not high on his list of priorities.
"I have not checked on the voting process. I'm not concerned about it. I'm not interested at all. I got people that are still trapped in their houses. Hundreds of people are without lights. Hundreds and hundreds of people are without shelter and we have a major storm coming. The furthest thing from my mind is the voting."
On Friday, Nov. 9, 2012 Fruite of the Loom plans to deliver four trucks of undergarments to Staten Island. Families in need will be able to go to the New York Container Terminal at 300 Western Ave.

Having trouble getting your children to eat right?
Does your child attempt to subsist on Goldfish crackers and Cheerios?
Does your child express fear when offered a new food?
People like Cheri Fraker and Alicia Hart may be able to help.
Fraker, a therapist with the Center for Selective Eating and Pediatric Feeding Disorders at Koke Mill Medical Center in Springfield, and Hart, Family and Resource Coordinator at the Autism Program in Charleston, gave a presentation on picky eating recently at Helen Matthes Library in Effingham.
With the help of a PowerPoint presentation, Fraker gave the handful of parents in attendance some ideas on why their child might be a picky eater.
Fraker said picky eating manifests itself in a number of ways.
"They might not be getting enough liquid, or they may only be eating limited food groups," she said.
"Other children have problems tolerating foods with multiple textures."
Fraker said the vast majority of picky eaters have a medical condition that makes eating a variety of foods painful.
"Only 3 percent of our patients have behavioral feeding problems," she said. "The rest are bio-behavioral.
"There's something wrong with them like acid reflux or a swallowing issue."
But Fraker said the prognosis is good, with the right kind of treatment. She is a member of an interdisciplinary team that treats more than 500 children per year, some from as far away at Italy and Turkey. Other team members include a pediatrician who specializes in gastrointestinal disorders, other specialist physicians, pediatric dietitian, various types of therapists and nurses, and psychology and social work professionals.
"It takes a team to treat a child," Fraker said.
Fraker said feeding disorders begin in infancy. Some of the early-warning signs include the inability to swallow saliva, liquid spilling from mouth, the inability of the baby's lips to seal around a nipple, and the inability of cheeks to help move food in mouth.

PEORIA – In the age of cell phones, we sometimes take for granted how easy it is for us to communicate.
A grant from the federal government will help Peoria County fire departments talk a little easier too.
Limestone Fire Department was awarded more than one million dollars for a county-wide radio system.
With that money, every fire department in Peoria County will get new radios, which allow them to communicate with one another.
The new radios will also have stronger signals, which means there will no longer be "dead zones."
The City of Peoria has purchased repeaters, which allow the signal to travel even further.
Division Chief of Operations Ed Olehy says, "It boosts the signal right there at every place where we have these problems. We'll be able to go into these buildings where we have these communication problems, and this will solve a lot of that problem."
The Peoria Fire Department hopes to have the new system fully implemented by mid-summer.

First off, I know I spelled Halladay's name wrong. But WTF, I'm a truck driver.
Let's assume the new management can get the players on the same page and the star plays to his full potential, perhaps seeing his team mates as equals and not barbarians. Let's say he stays at the same hotel and actually socializes with the players. Then...
Now that the batting order is pretty much set, in how many innings will this batting order be able to pressure the opponent and score some runs?
Will it be every inning? Or will it be every 3 innings?
Does the batting order have to wrap around to the top of the order to generate offense?
What's your take?
I'm asking this question of all A.L. teams, except the barbarian part.
The I.D. reflects the Angels pitcher vs. the Toronto pitcher. The Toronto pitcher, IMO is perhaps the best in the game and rumor has it that he'll be available for trade at the July break.
I drive a truck and watch MLB.TV. I watch baseball. I'm stuck in L.A. traffic a whole lot. So I catch a few Angel games. I also drive up to Toronto.
So I'm having a bit of fun. I've been in Phoenix, but spring training hasn't started. Maybe I'll catch a few spring training games.

A pepper spray incident forced the evacuation of Mesa High School on Thursday.
Someone released the pepper spray at the end of the school day in one of the hallways on the first floor of the school.
Mesa HAZMAT crews eventually cleared the school. No one suffered injuries or lingering effects from the pepper spray.
The students were later released to go home.
Just a few weeks ago, several teenagers who attend the school were taken to the hospital after having heart palpitations, allegedly from smoking a synthetic drug.

I get it. Because I lived it.
Getting the life you want is an inside job. We usually get this backwards. We think if we achieve, obtain, get or secure the things we say we want on the outside, then we get to feel the way we want to feel on the inside. Every decision we make is really because we are after a feeling. Think about it, you choose relationships, career, hobbies all for a feeling. If it was really that simple why do so many who have achieved continue to feel less than happy?
I get it. Because I did it too. I married the guy, had the kid, got the degrees, bought the house, landed the right job, et. etc. Always in the pursuit of happiness. When things fell into place I felt happy-ish. What I started to realize is that even when I got whatever I thought I wanted the feeling I was after was fleeting. Then there was space for what my brain would do while I was in pursuit of the next goal. I would start to allow thoughts of fear, anxiety, insecurity to fill in the gap while I was waiting for the other shoe to drop if things were too, "good". As crazy as this may sound, I bet you know the drill. Pretty exhausting, right?
What I have since learned is that what is in my "head space" is up to me. I started to learn how my brain works, what the relationship is between thoughts and feelings and how to get more of the ones I want and less of the ones that I don't. Your brain is incredible and capable of so many things, most importantly-change… What would you do differently if your life felt the way you wanted it to feel? How would this change the way you show up in the world? How would it impact your relationship with yourself, your work, your children or significant other? No circumstance, person or event can keep you from feeling the way you want to feel. The only thing that is stopping you is you.
What kind of head owner are you?You can change your mind.

With his second single Helicopters & Planes
After teaming up with Wretch 32, singer songwriter Josh Kumra graced the lofty heights of the singles chart with Don't Go. Riding on the wave Don't Go created for him, Kumra is back with his second single from his debut album.
Since reaching the top spot back in August last year, he has been writing and recording the album along with heavily praised performances on Later With Jools Holland as well as appearances at V and Glastonbury.
This summer is no different, and will see Josh, who has been likened to Ray LaMontagne among many others, take to the stage at 10 festivals across the United Kingdom, including Relentless Boardmasters Festival, Newquay in August along with a slot at Bestival in September.
The video sees Kumra walking down the centre of London and scaling the tube elevators whilst ironically singing "Keeping my feet on the ground" and dreaming about helicopters and planes. Building into a beautiful anthem at times, the video seems pretty low budget, but we love it all the same.
With a record deal with Sony RCA under his belt, this could be see him once again reach those dreamy heights that Helicopters & Planes' predecessor managed.

AirAsia India To Start Operations With A No-frills Airline Model
June 03--NEW DELHI -- AirAsia India's maiden flight from Bangalore to Goa on 12 June marks the beginning of a new era in Indian aviation where passengers will have to pay for every additional service, including baggage.
AirAsia India, which will fly its Airbus A320 aircraft from Bangalore to Goa and Chennai starting 12 June, has announced it will not allow any free checked-in baggage and will not refund fares if the tickets are cancelled, according to the airline's website.
"This is excellent as a 0kg baggage allowance will be game changing. We will see some disruptive pricing and commercial strategies from Air Asia," said Kapil Kaul, South Asia chief executive officer (CEO) for Capa, an aviation consultancy.
While existing low-fare airlines such as IndiGo and SpiceJet charge for meals, preferred seats, extra baggage, priority boarding and lounges varying from Rs.200-600 for each service, they allow free 15kg check-in baggage and refund fares with cancellation charges of up to a maximum of Rs.1,500.
It is unclear whether AirAsia has taken the regulator's approval for charging for all services as airlines are supposed to do at the start of every month.
AirAsia India CEO Mittu Chandilya did not offer any immediate comments on the matter.
AirAsia's India entry has been controversial with some local airlines opposing the government's decision to allow it to operate in India.
When AirAsia India announced it was offering the first 15,000 seats for Rs.5 plus taxes, rival IndiGo swiftly followed with promotional fares of Rs.1 plus taxes on the same routes.
IndiGo is one of the airlines that has opposed AirAsia's entry and filed a lawsuit together with some other carriers grouped under the Federation of Indian Airlines (FIA).
On Friday, FIA wrote a letter to finance minister Arun Jaitley asking him to bar the new airline from operating in India. The body has already gone to courts disputing a government policy that allows foreign airlines to invest in Indian start-up airlines.
AirAsia group CEO Tony Fernandes has openly accused IndiGo of stalling its entry.
"Some airlines (are) scared of us. We must be doing something right. Help us people of India. Don't let cartels win and not let ordinary man fly," Fernandes wrote in a post on Twitter on Saturday. He also said Indians should have more options. Fernandes later deleted the Twitter post.
Rival SpiceJet reacted to the post saying Indians already have more choice than people have in AirAsia's home turf in Malaysia.
"People of India already have more choice than the people of Malaysia when it comes to airlines. And we had leather seats, hot meals, and low-fare sales and promos too! Even Rs.1 fares! And cabin crew uniforms and liveries in blue, yellow, orange, green, grey, pink, you name it. We have the whole spectrum here," SpiceJet chief operating officer Sanjiv Kapoor said on his Twitter account.
IndiGo, which has not made public remarks so far on AirAsia, declined to comment.
On Twitter, Kapoor also said it was unfair to block SpiceJet from offering low fares while letting rivals sell cheap tickets. Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) had come down heavily on SpiceJet in March for offering cheap tickets ranging from Rs.1-1,499, calling it predatory pricing.
"What is predatory, disruptive, dangerous? Offering Rs.5 fares in peak season, and that too within 14 days of travel. Let us wait and watch...We will find out soon what a 'level playing field' means, at least as it comes to pricing," Kapoor said on Twitter.
DGCA did not offer a comment immediately.
Air Deccan founder G.R. Gopinath said FIA was behaving like a cartel in opposing new entrants.
"There actions are despicable and anti-national," Gopinath said, "AirAsia is good for the country and good for the consumers. It will open new routes which will promote tourism and increased connectivity will increase investment to areas which are hitherto unconnected. Lower fares will expand the consumer base by making more common people fly. Obviously the cartel of Indian operators are trying to block it. They forget they are here because of reforms."

BEING mistreated by a former boyfriend might be painful, but the experience landed Taiwanese artist Rainie Yang the lead role in upcoming horror movie The Child's Eye.
Directors Oxide and Danny Pang recently told the media that Yang, 26, was picked for the role "because of her difficult love life".
In a phone interview with my paper, Yang said: "They must have been kidding. My love life is just like everyone else's."
Yet her love life hasn't always been rosy. Taiwanese actor Roy Chiu, 28, who she met on the set of idol drama The Original Scent Of Summer in 2003, was rumoured to have broken up with her suddenly.
He reportedly also refused to take her phone calls.
Yang asserts that the Pangs must have read such reports, and "scripted that into my character in the movie".
Yang, who broke into the scene at age 16 as a member of the now-defunct girl group 4 In Love and shot to fame with idol drama Devil Beside You (2005), added that she is currently single.
The Child's Eye is a 3-D horror flick which sees Yang playing Hong Kong actor Shawn Yue's girlfriend.
In the movie, they vacation in Thailand, staying at an old and shabby hotel where strange things happen.
The movie opens in Singapore cinemas on Oct 14.
Yang, who has been friends with Yue for years but who hasn't met up with him for some time, said that "even though I haven't seen Yue for years, our chemistry is still good".
She will next be in Singapore on Oct 16 in support of her album, Rain Love. She will play a show at the Singapore Indoor Stadium.
She attended the 67th Venice Film Festival last month with the Pang brothers and co-actress Elaine Kwong.
Yang, who has previously starred in two movies - Merry Go Round (2001) and Spider Lilies (2007) - said that in Venice she met her role model, Maggie Cheung.
She explained that Cheung started out playing cutie-pie roles in movies but went on to star in diverse roles, which earned her her movie-star status today.
Yang, who is also renowned for her girly image, which she is trying to shed, added: "I'd like to try a wide range of roles...too. I'd love to star in gongfu or historical movies."
The Child's Eye opens next Thursday. For more information on Rainie Yang's concert, visit Sistic (www.sistic.com.sg).

Military cuts may ground fly-overs at NHMS
A B-52 bomber flies over New Hampshire Motor Speedway in Loudon before the start of the Sylvania 300 last Sept. 23. Such flyovers will be grounded by federal cuts if sequestration goes into effect. (USA TODAY SPORTS)
"Information from our military contacts doesn't look hopeful in the wake of impending military cutbacks," NHMS' Jerry Gappens said of the government's $85 billion sequestration cuts.
"Nonetheless, we are optimistic and looking at ways to replace the fly-over with something just as exciting and visual," he said, declining to elaborate further.
Wendy Varhegyi, chief of the engagement division for Air Force public affairs, told USA TODAY Sports that the Air Force Thunderbirds are scheduled for a fly-over March 10 at a Las Vegas Motor Speedway NASCAR event.
"The Thunderbirds are expected to stand down effective April 1. (Las Vegas) is pretty much going to be, I think, the last fly-over you'll see for a while from us," Varhegyi said.
The curtailment would be at least through the end of the fiscal year, Sept. 30, she said.
"And then at that point, we'll reevaluate ... Sequestration is a 10-year problem, so we just don't know."
Varhegyi told the newspaper that the Air Force conducts about 1,000 fly-overs a year at sports venues and other events. They are made in conjunction with pre-allotted training hours for pilots. Under sequestration, such training hours would be curtailed.
"It's no additional cost to the government for support of any public events," she said. "Typically, if you see a unit fly over a football game, that is 90 seconds out of a several-hour training sorte that they're flying.''
The fly-overs mean a lot to race fans at NHMS, Gappens said.
"Military fly-overs have been a long-standing tradition for many NASCAR pre-race ceremonies, including here at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. The fly-overs give us the opportunity to celebrate our military and our country while adding entertainment value to our events," he said Thursday.
Gappens said speedway officials will begin seeking an alternative in the coming days and weeks.
"We are truly committed to our fans and will continue to be a destination for 'wow' by providing them with a high level of motorsports entertainment," he said.
