NEW YORK (Reuters) - Governor Andrew Cuomo and state
lawmakers announced a deal on Thursday that would allow limited
access to medical marijuana and make New York the 23rd U.S.
state to offer some kind of availability of the drug for
therapeutic purposes.
The program, which would bar smoking of marijuana but allow
it to be eaten or vaporized, would be regulated by the state's
Department of Health under the deal. It includes a "fail-safe"
provision that would allow the governor to stop the program at
any time, Cuomo told a news conference in the state capital
The plan still needs final approval in the state
"I always supported the concept of if you can get the
medical benefits of medical marijuana to a suffering patient,
clearly you would want to do that," said Cuomo, a Democrat. "My
trepidation has always been the risk. This bill virtually
eliminates the risk."
Under the plan, the Health Department would license five
private companies to produce and distribute marijuana through
"Production, manufacturing and distribution all has to
happen within New York state boundaries," Dr. Howard Zucker, the
state's acting health commissioner, told the news conference.
The legislation has been the subject of heated last-minute
negotiations as New York's current legislative session draws to
a close. Versions of the bill have been approved by the liberal
state Assembly on multiple occasions since the 1990s.
The current bill must still be voted on by the state Senate,
where Republicans have a power sharing agreement with a
breakaway group of Democrats.
In May, Minnesota became the 22nd of the 50 states, in
addition to the District of Columbia, to allow some sort of
access to medical marijuana, according to the advocacy group the
Marijuana Policy Project.

In the event of axle fracture, the vehicle would lose drive function and would coast to a stop. Loss of drive function could lead to a crash. Dealers will replace the wheel bearings, seals, and axle shafts to correct this concern. The Ford recall number is 04S16.

The pilot was receiving VFR flight following services from Air Traffic Control and was climbing to his cruise altitude of 9,500 feet when he requested information regarding the tops of the clouds. The pilot stated that he was VFR, and had gone through some clouds. The controller informed the pilot that he was in an area of intermittent radar coverage, and asked him if he was able to maintain VFR. The pilot replied that he could, and that he was at 6,800 feet. A few seconds later, the controller lost radar and radio contact. No distress call was received and an over-flying airplane tried unsuccessfully to establish radio contact. Radar data indicated that a target in the vicinity of the accident site appeared to make two left 360-degree turns. A witness saw the airplane come spiraling out of the bottom of the clouds with the nose pointed straight towards the ground. No preimpact mechanical malfunctions or failures were identified in the wreckage. Two weeks prior to the accident, the pilot had extensive surgery to remove a recurrent tumor in his maxillary sinus. At the time of the accident, the pilot was returning home from a post-surgical meeting at which the surgeon informed the pilot that some tumor remained in his eye socket. The pilot's options would be radiation to the eye, additional surgery to remove the floor of the eye socket and possibly the eye as well, or watch the tumor grow prior to taking any action. The pilot had likely recovered from most of the immediate effects of that surgery. The pilot had ibuprofen in his blood, suggesting that he had some continuing pain or discomfort, which might have reduced his attention to flight related tasks. He might also have been distracted or depressed by the prospect of additional surgery and/or the possible loss of one eye. His decision to fly or respond to events during flight could have been sub optimal due to post surgical issues.
The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause(s) of this accident to be:

The recent political chatter about "Obamacare" before the Supreme Court of the United States got a great deal of media attention. President Obama added fuel to the fire when he declared, "Ultimately, I am confident the Supreme Court will not take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected Congress."
For someone who was a law professor those words were absurd. Even if a bill passed unanimously in the house and senate, it could still be overturned – if the law was in violation of the Constitution.
Nelson Rockefeller's nomination for Governor in 1958 was partly an upstate revolt against the continued domination of party affairs by the Nassau Republican organization. Rockefeller was a man who always had bigger fish to fry, and throughout his almost 15 years as governor, he often went out of his way not to step on the toes of the touchy Nassau GOP. That's why Nassau is the only large New York county without a state office building. Respect the turf.
Just before taking office, Rockefeller announced that State Senator William Hults would be Commissioner of Motor Vehicles, but not until the end of the 1959 legislative session, so that Glen Cove, North Hempstead, Oyster Bay and a sliver of Hempstead wouldn't lose their Senate representation until 1960.
The Nassau County district attorney's (DA) office makes a cameo appearance in Empty Mansions, an incredible book about Huguette Clark (1906-2011), the Manhattan-raised heiress whose generosity and eccentricities were legendary.
Now that Ryan Murphy, a creator of television's "Glee," has optioned Empty Mansions' film rights, I imagine a scrum of top actresses are vying to play Clark.
Written by Michael A. Miller, email@example.com Thursday, 14 November 2013 00:00
From the first moment back in February when Tom Suozzi said he'd be running for Nassau County Executive again, the most common question I've been asked is this: Why is he doing this? The debt, the taxes, the coliseum, the whatever, we know, we know. A hundred different people could adequately complain about what. But why? Why should Tom Suozzi be the county executive again?
And his campaign never answered that question to the satisfaction of a lot of voters.The exact same campaign, with the same marketing, the same everything, probably would have worked better with a candidate who was running for the first time. Eight years of incumbency builds up a lot of baggage. Campaigns for third terms are frequently the hardest. Even harder are comeback campaigns for the same office. The people around Tom Suozzi made themselves believe that 2009 was a fluke. After casting blame in every direction, the party line finally settled on this: By accident, a lot of Democrats forgot to vote.
Looking back, this unhealthy denial was evident throughout this fall's primary campaign. Wisely allowing his opponent's campaign to sink of its own weight, the Suozzi operation concentrated on Ed Mangano. Most of the Suozzi advertising didn't mention the primary, and much of the literature was mailed to Republicans. Perhaps the most stunning aspect of the Suozzi general election campaign is the lack of any attempt to inoculate against what was coming, and the lateness in mounting a defense against any of it.
I'm holding 13 pieces of Ed Mangano campaign literature that was mailed to my home this fall (I'm not counting taxpayer-funded mail from county agencies). 13 mention taxes, 12 mention pay raise. Some of the wording is lifted from Suozzi's primary opponent's literature. This wasn't any kind of whisper campaign.
Tom Suozzi may have had very good reasons for supporting a one-fifth increase in one-fifth of the typical property tax bill, during two terms in which the county portion of that bill was reduced by about 30 percent. Perhaps bankruptcy was prevented. Perhaps the county could continue to make the lives of children at risk a little easier.
That's at least as compelling an argument for leadership, a reason to own and be proud of making the toughest decisions in a time of crisis, than "He took the pay raise, too." Who knows? The Suozzi campaign never gave supporters ammunition. The choice was made to pretend and plough forward.
On Nov. 4, I received 17 automated "robo-calls" delivering endorsements or pleas. I never received a call making sure, in a redistricting year, I knew where to vote or how I could get a ride to the polling place. The memory and priority of that basic political function — make sure your people know where, when and how to vote — has faded away.
Like the "cargo cultures" found on Pacific Islands after the war, in which islanders went through elaborate motions to make the big cargo planes come back, these are "cargo campaigns." They go through motions without really knowing why. Actually talking and listening to voters, or even gleaning input and field information from the ranks is gone. No percentage in it.
At least 22,000 more voters cast ballots this year than in 2009, but voters with active enrollments climbed 46,000. Turnout was actually down. The first-ever campaign between two county executives should have offered stark choices and captured voter imagination. Why it didn't is a critical question we all should ask.

An Official Newspaper of the
Internet Community
''Clearly, this is a victory for the Great Neck school community,'' said State Senator Michael Balboni, as he announced that a charter school will not be opening in Great Neck. Last Friday, Dec. 17, Senator Balboni made the official announcement to the Great Neck Record, reporting that the SABIS Educational Systems application had not been recommended by the Charter Schools Institute at its meeting that same day, and that the application is ''off the agenda and will not be given any further consideration by the SUNY board of trustees.''
At the 899th meeting of the Kings Point Board of Trustees, upon the recommendation of the Landmark Preservation Commission, the Cohan mansion was officially landmarked. Mayor Michael Kalnick and trustees David Harounian, Sheldon Kwiat, Richard Sokolov and Peter Aaron voted unanimously that the house be designated as a "landmark based upon its historical association with George M. Cohan and Walter Annenbery, and its architectural style, exemplary of the Country House period, a unique phenomenon of Long Island's late 19th and early 20th century history."
On what turned out to be a beautiful warm and sunny November day, hundreds of athletes assembled at the USMMA in Kings Point to compete in UCF's annual five mile run. There was a true competitive spirit in the air before the race horn blew, and when all was said and done, the race record would be challenged and there would be several close finishes for age group positions.

The Bachelor's Juan Pablo Galavis issued a statement of apology amid criticism over his recent comments about the LGBT community. When asked in an interview what he thought of a possible gay version of The Bachelor, Galavis said, "I respect [gay people] but, honestly, I don't think it's a good example for kids... Obviously people have their husband and wife and kids and that is how we are brought up. Now there is fathers having kids and all that, and it is hard for me to understand that too in the sense of a household having peoples Two parents sleeping in the same bed and the kid going into bed It is confusing in a sense."
Galavis continued to put his foot in his mouth. "There's this thing about gay people... it seems to me, and I don't know if I'm mistaken or not... but they're more 'pervert' in a sense. And to me the show would be too strong... too hard to watch."
After his remarks went viral, Juan Pablo released a statement on his official Facebook account to clarify his comment. "I want to apologize to all the people I may have offended because of my comments on having a Gay or Bisexual Bachelor, he wrote. "The comment was taken out of context. If you listen to the entire interview, there's nothing but respect for Gay people and their families. I have many gay friends and one of my closest friends who's like a brother has been a constant in my life especially during the past 5 months."
He then addressed the "pervert" part of his remarks: "The word pervert was not what I meant to say and I am very sorry about it. Everyone knows English is my second language and my vocabulary is not as broad as it is in Spanish and, because of this, sometimes I use the wrong words to express myself. "What I meant to say was that gay people are more affectionate and intense and for a segment of the TV audience this would be too racy to accept."
Juan Pablo concluded, "The show is very racy as it is and I don't let my 5 year old daughter watch it. Once again, I'm sorry for how my words were taken. I would never disrespect anyone."
ABC, which broadcasts The Bachelor, released their own official statement to denounce Galavis's remarks. "Juan Pablo's comments were careless, thoughtless and insensitive, and in no way reflect the views of the network, the show's producers or studio."

Ooooh...gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! You're absolutely right about changing the look of something by swapping around the percentages of each colour used. Love how the pink and gold work together. It's not something I would have tried and it's impressive to see how beautifully they go together. Such a talented, creative gal. Px

PharmTech Europe
|Email Newsletters from Pharmaceutical Technology and Pharmaceutical Technology Europe
Providing the latest business, scientific, and regulatory news for the pharmaceutical and biotech industries.
News from Europe's pharmaceutical manufacturing industry coupled with upcoming events, and exclusive articles and interviews from industry experts.
Global and US Biotech Markets Show Strength
The financial health of the biotechnology industry is crucial to the pharmaceutical industry and its suppliers. The biotech industry is a source for building the drug pipelines of Big Pharma, and also represents business opportunities for contract service providers. In 2007, the global biotech industry, and the US biotech industry, which represents a major portion of the global market, performed fairly well. Each recorded higher revenues and moved closer to overall profitability.
"In 2007, investors were drawn to the tremendous value of biotech's innovation, with impressive results, as venture financing and deal making reached unprecedented heights," says Glen Giovannetti, Ernst & Young's global biotechnology leader," in a company release. "To continue its multi-year track record of progress, the industry must meet the current challenges of cooling public equity markets, greater regulatory scrutiny, and higher product approval and reimbursement hurdles with fiscal discipline and the creativity and innovation for which it is known."
Global and US biotech revenues
Ernst &Young attributes the lower growth rates to the stronger deal environment for the biotechnology industry. Two large companies, MedImmune (Gaithersburg, MD) and Serono (Geneva, Switzerland), were both bought by pharmaceutical majors, respectively, AstraZeneca (London) and Merck KGaA (Darmstadt, Germany). Absent these acquisitions, revenues of public biotech companies would have increased 17% (1).
US-based companies accounted for 76.9% of this total, or $65.2 billion. Although revenues of US biotech companies increased 11% in 2007, this rate of growth was the lowest annual increase during the past five years, which was also due to these large acquisitions. Discounting the large acquisitions of 2007 (also including the acquisition of California-based Molecular Devices by Canada's MDS), revenues in the US biotech industry would have increased 16% (1).
European companies recorded revenues of $12.9 billion, or 15.3% of the global total. Biotech companies from Asia-Pacific accounted for nearly $4 billion in revenues, or 4.7% of the global total, and Canadian companies recorded revenues of $2.7 billion, or 3.1% of the global total (1).
Moving toward profitability
The US biotech industry moved closer to profitability as well. In 2007, US public biotech companies posted a net loss of $277 million, which was the closest the US market has come to reach aggregate profitability. "The journey to aggregate profitability in the US was impeded by black-box safety warnings that impacted revenue growth, acquisitions of profitable companies and large acquired IPR&D [in-process research and development] charges," notes the Ernst & Young report. "In the absence of any of these developments, the US publicly trade biotechnology industry would have been profitable in 2007."
Private firms dominate
Financing trends
A further analysis shows different fundraising patterns in the US, Europe, and Canada. Venture capital reached an all-time high in the US, $5.5 billion, a 65% increase compared with 2006. The $5.5 billion in venture capital raised by US biotech firms was also the first time than more than $5 billion was raised and was roughly $2 billion above the previous record of $3.6 billion. Venture capital was similarly robust in Canada, where biotech companies raised $352 million in 2007, up 72% year over year. In Europe, however, venture capital declined 16% to $1.6 billion in 2007 (1).
The market for initial public offerings (IPOs) rebounded in the US and Europe in 2007, although it fell off significantly in Canada. In 2007, the US market had 22 IPOs that raised $1.2 billion, a 31% increase in the amount raised compared with 2006, but only a 10% increase in the number of IPOs (from 20 to 22). The average proceeds of these IPOs were $56 million, which was similar to levels in 2006. Of the 22 IPOs in 2007, five companies traded more than 20% above their debut price by year's end, and eight companies traded more than 20% below (1).
European firms raised roughly $1 billion through IPOs, an 11% gain, but Canadian firms raised only $5 million, a 48% decline compared with 2006 (1). Europe had 21 biotech IPOs in 2007, down from 25 in 2006. The firms that had IPOs in 2007 showed greater product development than in 2006. One-third of products in the pipeline of the European IPO class of 2007 were in preclinical development compared with one-half of the products in the European IPO class of 2006 (1).
Europe also sustained its financing strength in follow-on and other offerings, reaching nearly $4.9 billion with these instruments in 2007, a 59% increase compared with 2006. US biotech companies raised $14.7 billion in follow-on and other offerings in 2007, down 9% over 2006, and the lowest level since 2002. Similar to it weak showing in IPOs, Canadian companies raised $703 million in secondary offerings in 2007, a 56% fall from 2006 (1).
Perhaps one of the more creative deals was Roche's (Basel, Switzerland) alliance with Alnylam Pharmaceuticals (Cambridge, MA), a company specializing in RNA interference (RNAi), according to the Ernst & Young report. Under the deal, Alnylam granted Roche licenses to its patent portfolio so Roche can perform its own RNAi experiments and product development. Alynlam also sold its Germany subsidiary to Roche. In exchange, Roche paid Alynlam $331 million upfront and could pay as much as $669 million in development and sales milestones (1).
In Europe, strategic alliances reached a potential value of $13.5 billion, almost double the potential value of $7.0 billion of these deals in 2006 (1). Biotech–biotech deals increased 61%, and pharma–biotech deals grew by 86%. In 2007, there were six deals with values over EUR 500 million ($772 million) compared with only two in 2006 (1).
M&A activity in 2007 provides a stronger indicator of the biotech industry's lure. In the US, the value of M&A deals grew by 87% to reach a new all-time high of more than $33 billion. In Europe, the value of M&A increased from only $2.5 billion in 2006 to $20.2 billion (1).
These substantial gains in M&A was largely a product of several large deals in 2007, something which was absent in 2006. AstraZeneca's $15.6-billion acquisition of MedImmune and Merck KGaA's $14.5-billion stake in Serono were the two large deals of 2007. The Ernst & Young report points out that there were no billion-euro acquisitions (deals with a value of greater than $1.37 billion) in Europe in 2006, but there were three such deals in 2007. These numbers exclude the $14.4-billion acquisition of Organon BioSciences by Schering-Plough (Kenilworth, NJ) (1).

Tropfest NZ Winner Heads To Hollywood Courtesy Of MPA
- 28Jan 2013
NEW ZEALAND/SINGAPORE: On January 27, Dave Smith was awarded top prize at Tropfest New Zealand – the world's largest short film festival, winning a trip to Hollywood to meet film industry executives, producers and LA-based film organizations thanks to the Motion Picture Association (MPA) and the New Zealand Federation Against Copyright Theft (NZFACT).
Dave Smith's short film, Cappuccino Tango, was a hit with judges and the thousands of film lovers who turned out for New Zealand's Tropfest night of films at the TSB Bowl of Brooklands, New Plymouth. Smith's musical film, a huge crowd favourite, told the story of two lonely decaf coffee drinkers who manage to find love in a café surrounded by hostile coffee lovers.
Winning director Dave Smith said, "I was utterly blown away when my name was called out. It was great to get a nice reaction to the film, but when I saw the other films I realised this was going to be a tough competition. I must say, that while I am the director, this film was very much a team effort. Going to LA will be an amazing experience and something that we're really looking forward to."
Tropfest NZ Ambassador and actor Martin Henderson, said, "It is my hope that the attention and experience garnered from winning the MPA first-prize trip to Los Angeles will help kick start the filmmaker's career and he will go on to create many other successful films both in New Zealand and overseas."
Tropfest director John Polson said, "Our aim with Tropfest has always been to recognise promising new filmmaking talent and provide them with a launching pad to develop their careers. Amazingly, the filmmakers are always surprising us with the quality of their films, with their diverse storytelling ability and the enterprising way they tell their story, and that's exactly what we've experienced here in New Zealand. Dave Smith is a great Kiwi talent, who I'm sure has a very promising career in the screen industry ahead of him. The trip to Los Angeles, provided by the MPA and NZFACT, is an invaluable experience for our winning filmmakers, and we thank them for supporting the great creative talent both here and around the region."
Tony Eaton, Managing Director NZFACT said, "Kudos to the Taranaki Arts Festival Trust for staging such a great event, and putting short filmmaking on the map in NZ. We're delighted to be able to support Kiwi filmmakers at the early stages of their career, and Tropfest proves that we have a wealth of new talent who look likely to create some great entertainment for audiences in the future. Dave Smith's film was a standout among some top quality films, and we hope that his trip to Los Angeles later this year helps him to build a successful career in the movie business."

On 13 December 2012, Tropfest founder John Polson was awarded the Asia Pacific Copyright Educator (ACE) Award at CineAsia, the largest convention for cinema exhibitors and distributors in Asia. The award acknowledged Polson's work raising awareness about the value of screen content, and the need to provide a strong copyright framework for filmmakers, not least those at the beginning of their creative careers.

Samsung Galaxy S Advance GT-I9070 or Samsung Galaxy S2 Mini will get upgrade to JellyBean in January next year. Earlier Samsung released a list of handsets that were eligible for Android v4.1.2 JellyBean upgrade. Galaxy S3, Galaxy Note, Galaxy S2 already received JellyBean ROM. Now it's turn for Galaxy S Advance to receive the JellyBean roll out. The news is leaked by Samsung Germany in Facebook page and supported by Samsung Sweden. Like other Samsung handsets Jellybean roll out will happen is several phases. Depending on region or carrier the upgrade may get experience some delay. Do not worry if it happens. It's going to be a OTA (over-the-air) upgrade. You can also install the upgrade package via Samsung KIES.
Samsung Galaxy S Advance GT-I9070 getting upgrade to JellyBean
SamsungMobileDeutschland also leaked the news in Facebook which means it's pretty certain the premium droid will get this upgrade in January. Though you can't completely rely on anything published in Facebook. But several sources are claiming the same news. Therefore, you can expect the news is true or at least partially true.
Samsung Galaxy S Advance currently runs on Android 2.3.6 Gingerbread platform. Powered by ST Ericsson U8500 SoC (dual Cortex A9 CPU cores + Mali 400-MP GPU) the droid features 4 inch Super AMOLED display. JellyBean upgrade will surely make this droid more catchy. The closest competitor of I9070 is Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini that runs Android 4.1.2 JellyBean out of the box but costs some extra bucks. Now it's pretty certain Galaxy S Advance will regain it's momentum once again.

Ford of Europe is expanding its Mondeo ecoNetic line with a new 115 hp 2.0-liter model. The latest variant gets a CO2 rating of just 139 g/km on the EU drive cycle and consumes diesel at the rate of 45.2 mpg (U.S.). Like other ecoNetic vehicles (and the low CO2 models from other automakers) the Mondeo gets low-rolling resistance tires, a suspension setup with lower ride height for reduced drag and an upshift indicator light. The upshift light is tied into the engine management system to help guide the driver to shift at the optimum time for the driving conditions.
Ford already offers a Mondeo ecoNetic with a 1.8-liter diesel. The 2.0-liter is a version of Ford's TDCi diesel engine family and the ecoNetic comes with a 6-speed manual transmission. Even though it's optimised for low fuel consumption, the Mondeo still retains all the comfort features like dual zone climate control, lots of airbags, heated windshield and bluetooth connectivity.

The Ricochet Podcast
Episode 149: The Diner 2012 Christmas Special
Ricochet members, here's a treat especially for you, courtesy of James Lileks: A special edition of James' legendary radio show (and later, a podcast) The Diner. Not a member? No worries — you can join right now and be listening to this audio goodness in mere moments.
A note of introduction from James himself:
Christmas music ranges from the glorious to the banal to the utterly unlistenable, and since at least two of those adjectives apply to the Diner podcasts, it only seems right to return to the storied roadside cafe and see what's on the jukebox. There's no script – something that should seem obvious straight way – and a minimum of plot. Enjoy!
(Diner art by Tom Dolan, who drew it for a story I had in the newspaper back in 1986. The Diner itself goes back to 1982 in fictional form, and was a radio show from 1997-1999, and a weekly podcast from 2006-2008. )
TJR: As much as I would like to listen to this at the computer, I actually joined Ricochet so I could listen to podcasts while feeding cows in my tractor, and it appears that the direct link to the MP3 file is not working. I find this annoying. It is possible that I am doing something wrong, but I am at a loss as to what that might be. I click on the direct link to the mp3 file, and nothing happens. Oh well, I guess it will be AM radio for me and the cows tomorrow. Merry Christmas to anyone that may read this. Edited to add, I found the podcast feed, my fault entirely. Thanks for the content. · 18 minutes ago

Arlington, TX
DescriptionNutraFuels was founded in 2009. With extensive research and development behind us, we launched our first line of nutritional sprays to the consumer in 2010. Due to consumer demands and the success of the product line, we discovered that there was a need for a convenient .25oz, easy to carry and equally effective option. In order to keep the product as convenient for the consumer as possible, we tested several retail markets in 2012. The market testing results have provided us with a strategic and competitive plan to expand the product launch nationwide to our retail partners.
Energize, Sleep, NRG-X, and Body Slim are the new vitamin supplement line we are offering. These products are derived from natural sources and are packed into a unique and innovated delivery system. The spray bottles offer an absorption rate that is clinically proven to be nine times more effective than most ingested nutritional pills and capsules. Along with being effective, the spray bottles are efficient and have the best value for your customers, allotting them multiple servings in one bottle. By presenting the vitamins and nutrients in liquid form, we have eliminated the need for fillers and waxes that typically make up over 80% of pill volumes.
The internship position is set up to build into a full-time sales representative job. Part-time and Full-time are currently available, and the possibility of moving into management is present. The distribution and retail partner industry is diverse, hectic, and rewarding. Those that are interested will be able to travel as a sales representative to trade shows across the nation, and this side of the sales division will begin to grow and expand in other states.

The innovative approach to verges along the side of the Weymouth Relief Road is already having remarkable benefits, according to the county's leading ecologist.
The last of the 125,000 trees, shrubs and marginal plants to be planted along the Weymouth Relief Road, which went in this spring, are growing well thanks to the wettest April on record and plenty of rain ever since. Butterflies, including the country's smallest resident butterfly, are already moving in, demonstrating the wildlife benefits of this approach to verges.
The three year planting programme has replanted ten times the area of trees and shrubs that were lost during construction. Six hectares of bare chalk have been transformed into wildflower areas using local seeds so they tie in with the surrounding landscape.
More trees and shrubs have also been planted at the Mount Pleasant park and ride site, which has been redesigned to help reduce future maintenance costs. Work has now started on a five year maintenance programme to ensure the recently planted trees and shrubs get established.
County ecologist Dr Phil Sterling said:
"Our in-house grounds services workforce and contractors Knighton Countryside Management have worked extremely hard to complete the planting before the Olympics. In the past, we always put 30cm of topsoil on all verges when we reinstated them after an improvement scheme. Whilst the ground greens up quickly with that depth of soil, the grass needs regular cutting to keep it under control and we create ourselves a maintenance liability forever. In some places on the Weymouth Relief Road, we have used much less topsoil than this or none at all.
"The early results are remarkable. On the main cuttings through the Ridgeway we have reduced our maintenance costs over a wide area to virtually nil. We have over 20 species of wildflower thriving and four species of butterfly are now breeding there, including the very local Small Blue, which feeds on the yellow Kidney Vetch.
"So this type of reinstatement has two benefits; it is good for wildlife and looks spectacular when the flowers are out and, once established, the verges require much less maintenance in the long term. The downside is that in the short term the verges may look 'unfinished' or scruffy – but after a year or two the benefits are clear.
"We will use the lessons learnt from the landscape methods we have tried on the Weymouth Relief Road to promote more sustainable management practices across our grounds and premises. They won't be appropriate everywhere, but in these times of financial constraints we will be cutting verges less than previously, and we need to consider how we can work with nature to cut our maintenance costs."

Social Software: Logic and Social Interaction
|Marc Pauly

|[Home Page]
Notice: hosted by Richard Waldinger

Location: EJ228 (Directions)
Voting Procedures, fair division algorithms, auctions and markets are all examples of social software, i.e., algorithms that process individual preferences or judgments in order to come up with some social outcome. I will illustrate how formal logic enters into the picture by two examples. First, I will discuss the relatively recent area of judgment aggregation, where individual judgments need to be aggregated into a group judgment. Judgments are here modeled by sets of logical formulas. Second, I will talk about an example of real-life social software, the Stanford Housing Draw that assigns undergraduates to residences on campus. Here, the plan is to use logic to specify the algorithm and to verify properties of the algorithm such as optimality and strategic non-manipulability.
Marc Pauly is an assistant professor of philosophy at Stanford University. He received his PhD in 2001 from the University of Amsterdam. Before coming to Stanford, he was a lecturer in Computer Science at the University of Liverpool, UK, and a researcher at the CNRS in France.

Riesterer & Schnell, a John Deere dealership group with several locations in eastern, northeastern and now central Wisconsin has purchased Faivre Implement's two John Deere dealerships in Stevens Point and Westfield.
According to Jim Faivre, CEO of Faivre Implement, "When we decided to sell our dealership, we felt Riesterer & Schnell, who were our direct competitors in many regions, would be the logical choice for the ownership team, our customers and our employees."
The acquisition was effective January 2.

I think you should tbh. It wouldn't be much more effort than the 12-hour time limit in the regular draft.
"If that Swann lad is the future of spin bowling in this country, then we're ****ed." - Nasser Hussain, 1997.
Alright, would 24 hours for the original selections and 12 hours for the repicks be good? Or maybe 12 hours across the board
See what the Africans/Indians/Sri Lankans/WIs think. There is a big time differential between the various continents (obviously, Earth happens to be a planet).
12 hours good for me
Originally Spoken by Brendon McCullum
You have got to earn the right to be aggressive.
Two more hours before Cev and Prez time out. Then we'll try 12 hour time periods.

K-State launches Prairie Star Flowers blog
Short, dark winter days have many gardeners dreaming about spring and the chance to try out new flowers in the landscape. In order to help gardeners find varieties that work best in Kansas, Kansas State University scientists launched a new blog www.prairiestarflowersblog.com and Facebook page www.facebook.com/PrairieStarFlowers.
Prairie Star is a collection of annual flower varieties tested by K-State to determine those that are best suited for the challenging prairie climate. The list includes flowers that exhibited superior performance for two or more years in bedding plant research trials in Olathe, Wichita, Hays and Colby.
"All varieties on the list grow well across the state, east to west and north to south," said Alan Stevens, horticulture specialist with K-State Research and Extension.
"Growing flowers in Kansas is not like growing them in Florida or California or Illinois," said Stevens, who is director of K-State's Horticulture Research and Extension Center in Olathe. "Everything on the list has not only endured, but thrived in the sometimes harsh Kansas growing conditions."
Plants are rated for vigor, which he defined as how fast and strong they grow and how much substance they have. They are also rated on floriferousness--the overall visual impact of the flower and foliage display.
The varieties include such names as Petunia Surfinia Wild Plum, Canna South Pacific Scarlet and Marigold Hero Series.
"In starting this blog, we wanted to give people a way to learn about flowers that can be grown successfully in Kansas, as well a way to interact with us," Stevens said.
The blog is one of several ways K-State's Department of Horticulture, Forestry and Recreation Resources is using social media. William Reid, a research and Extension pecan specialist for Kansas and Missouri hosts a blog about northern pecans at northernpecans.blogspot.com. The department has a Facebook page at www.facebook.com/kstate.hfrr, as does the nursery production extension program at www.facebook.com/NurseryWorks.

There are plans for another store in the new year in Hampstead Heath, but for now you can take a closer look at their brand of Gallic grunge-chic online on their website.

Picking the stars of tomorrow has never been an exact science. The late Brandon Tartikoff, former head of NBC's entertainment division, used to tell the story of how he initially rejected Michael J. Fox for the role of Alex P. Keaton on Family Ties. He just couldn't envision Fox on a lunchbox, Tartikoff explained.
Current-day NBC entertainment president Garth Ancier, who left the same position at WB last year, remembers playing a key role at the Buffy the Vampire Slayer auditions. Sarah Michelle Gellar, the star of the series, originally was up for the supporting role of vapid Cornelia Chase.
