I worked at Silver Spring Networks Inc. full-time (more than an year)Pros
Good opportunity to move up if you have good ideas and the energy to push them through (a lot of that will be done on your own time, though). Great company mission. Few customers means you get to establish a good relationship with them, which makes the work more rewarding.Cons
Understaffed in the customer-facing roles. Management makes commitments that the staff doesn't have time to back up. Products are released on the fast and cheap while chasing immediate revenue to stay afloat.Advice to ManagementAdvice
Keep trying to change the revenue model. Take a hard look at the costs of supporting your products and price them accordingly. Don't reward people for saying they will get things done unless they actually get things done!Neutral OutlookNo opinion of CEO

- get 10 people in a room. ask who owns a decision. nobody knows.

The Adobe Story: A Global Treasure
American Association for International Aging, 1996 - Architecture - 124 pages
The Adobe Story is an outgrowth of a senior education and service experience called the New Mexico Adobe Mission Project. It was developed as an experimental model for providing development education by Helen Kerschner, Ph.D., President of the American Association for International Aging. One of the primary goals of the project was to experiment with an innovative method for incorporating international issues into a seemingly domestic education and service program. Two project objectives were: (1) to educate Americans and share the information and experience common to other peoples of the world, in order to honor and rescue an almost lost art; and (2) to develop a bridge of mutual interests with our international neighbors through education and involvement, in a shared experience that all can understand and appreciate. Hopefully this book will expand the understanding of how earth has been and can be used in times of economic hardship. If this provides a common bond between nations on a very basic level, we will feel this book has been a success.

A Tour Around Ace Frehley's Bronx
By Katherine Turman
In the industry's ongoing quest to find a "Feminem," Lady Sovereign's stats are promising: Def Jam MC (signed by Jay-Z himself), self-proclaimed "white midget" (20 years old and five-foot-one), product of London's Chalkhill Estates (Brit for "projects"), and a success story launched by Internet fandom. But pull up, now. "People wanna classify me as an Eminem/Why? Heh? Wha? I'm a different kind of specimen," she rhymes on "Blah Blah," off her big full-length debut. After all, why not liken her strident silliness to Missy Elliott's? Her rapid-fire flow to Twista's? Her faux-maican accent to Sean Paul's? Or Public Warning's standout moment, the ska-meets-rap track "9 to 5," to Madness? And how about hipster darling M.I.A., whose musical influencesLondon grime, Jamaican dancehall, American hip-hopcover the same postmodern pastiche?
But alas, Feminem she is. Because over and above her music, it's Sov's persona that defines her, and that persona is, simply put, Eminem sans any of the sturm und drang or soul-searching angst that made him interestinghis complex character distilled to pure adolescent fuckery. The tunes on Public Warningare catchy and fun, chock-full of sing-song choruses and jerky electro beats. And yes, Sov can flow, but mostly what's flowing is juvenile gibberish and impish one-liners about being an outsider because she's English or short or sports hairy armpits and baggy Adidas: "It ain't about tea and biscuits/I'm one of those English misfits/ I don't drink tea, I drink spirits/And I talk a lot of slag in my lyrics." It's all very funny and cheeky, but after a full album's worth it grows cloying, like a good Saturday Night Live skit that's two minutes too long.

GL: What's your favorite thing
about your character Chyna in A.N.T. Farm?
China Anne: She is way more talkative
than I am. She's able to stand up for herself, and she's just really confident.
Which Season 3 scene was your
favorite to film?
I don't want to say too much, but there is a scene
where I have to sing and it's kind of like a music video, but I'm playing a
bunch of different instruments so it's really cool.
If you could snag one thing of
Chyna's right now, what would you want to take?
Definitely all of her jewelry. Every time I go out on
the stage [to film], the jewelry that wardrobe brings me...I just want it all
so bad.
Why should we get excited about A.N.T. Farm Season 3?
It's way different than Seasons 1 and 2. The A.N.T.'s
have grown up a little bit and it's really, really different. The episodes are
way bigger and more fun!
For more on China Anne, be sure to check out our June/July
issue—on stands now! And make sure to watch the season premiere of A.N.T. Farm tomorrow night.

Pacific Grove is next door to Monterey CA. It is like the rest of the Monterey Bay ~ scenic!
We first came upon it two weeks ago when Kirk and Susan came for a visit. We were headed for 17 mile drive but first took a drive through Pacific Grove along the water.
What a fantastic drive along the coast.
And yesterday Pam and I went back to to Pacific Grove to play the 'poor man's Pebble Beach' golf course. What a fun time that was!
Speaking of meals, I got a picture (above) of Pam eating her sandwich. Here is one of a sea gull eating mine.
Thanks for joining us today on the Roadrunner Chronicles! Until next time...

The Preview by Alex Winter
August 28, 2013
Match facts
August 29, Ageas Bowl
Start time 1830 (1730 GMT)
Related Links
Players/Officials: Jos Buttler | Mitchell Starc
Matches: England v Australia at Southampton
Series/Tournaments: Australia tour of England and Scotland
Big Picture
Any event in the aftermath of an Ashes series has got its work cut out to capture the imagination but a short, sharp Twenty20 series has got a chance, with the World T20 next March adding much-needed relevance. Australia will also be extremely keen to take something home and recent history suggests they are a good bet to do so, with the last three Ashes winners struggling in the limited-overs matches that followed.
But Australia may have to wait until the ODI series to find much-craved success because England's T20 squad is largely fresh and eager to impress selectors ahead of a global tournament. There are potential places in the ODI team at stake too, with England likely to continue rotation of the players involved in more than one format until preparation for the 2015 ODI World Cup begins in a year's time.
Australia also need to reverse a poor recent record in bilateral T20 series. Since June 2010, they have only won five of 19 matches. That they managed to defy that form with a run to the semi-final of the World T20 in Sri Lanka was down to a remarkable tournament from Shane Watson and a good showing from the now-retired Mike Hussey.
George Bailey returns to lead the side along with a host of one-day specialists including Mitchell Johnson, the mere mention of whom draws guffaws from England supporters, but his good showing in the Champions Trophy suggests he could earn their respect.
England also change captains with Stuart Broad taking the reins. He has a squad full of players in form having recently played in the Friends Life t20 and closing rounds of the Yorkshire Bank 40. Michael Carberry heads that list after over 500 runs in the Flt20 and is in line for a first international appearance since his solitary Test in Chittagong three years ago. Ravi Bopara has also found his touch and will use the limited-overs internationals to stake a claim for a place on the Ashes tour as a potential No. 6.
Form guide
England: LWLWW
Australia: LLLLL
Players to watch
It's a big few weeks for Jos Buttler with the jury very much out on how effective his swashbuckling batting actually is. He will be mostly judged on his performances in the ODIs where there is more doubt on his ability to bat for a long period, but he will like to get in credit during this series. His recent showings in T20s for England - two good knocks in New Zealand and good contributions in India before Christmas - plus Matt Prior's loss of form also give him some leeway.
Mitchell Starc endured a difficult Ashes series, coming in-and-out of the side and struggling for rhythm. One-day cricket appears to be his strength and his best statistics both internationally and domestically are found in Twenty20. He was superb at the World T20 in Sri Lanka, third-highest of the wicket-takers with 10 dismissals.
Team news
England's T20 squad is largely at full-strength with a host of options in the batting order. Michael Carberry has been called up following a super domestic season and should play one of the two matches in this series. Joe Root gives England another spin option alongside James Tredwell, with the choice of fast bowlers looking between Jade Dernbach and Boyd Rankin.
England (possible) 1 Alex Hales, 2 Michael Lumb, 3 Luke Wright, 4 Eoin Morgan, 5 Joe Root, 6 Ravi Bopara, 7 Jos Buttler (wk), 8 Stuart Broad (capt), 9 Steven Finn, 10 James Tredwell, 11 Jade Dernbach
Australia have an inflated 18-man squad for this series, which will be trimmed to 15 for the ODI series. Adam Voges had a limited Flt20 for Middlesex with the bat but was their most economical bowler and, unless Fawad Ahmed is given a debut, Voges will be relied upon for some slow bowling with Glenn Maxwell also an option. There's a choice between Aaron Finch and Shaun Marsh for the No. 3 slot with Finch having the better record from his handful of internationals.
Australia (possible) 1 David Warner, 2 Shane Watson, 3 Aaron Finch, 4 George Bailey (capt), 5 Adam Voges, 6 Glenn Maxwell, 7 Matthew Wade (wk), 8 James Faulkner, 9 Mitchell Johnson, 10 Mitchell Starc, 11 Clint McKay
Pitch and conditions
The Ageas Bowl has produced some cracking pitches for T20, none more so than for the Flt20 quarter-final which yielded over 400 runs. No rain is forecast which bodes well for a good evening for a sell-out crowd.
Stats and trivia
"These guys have performed throughout the county season to get a chance at international level. They wouldn't be in the squad if they're not good enough to play and the squad will be very focused on beating Australia."
England's T20 captain Stuart Broad defends England's much-changed squad.
"I've no doubt they'd have Mitch in their sights for a couple of those Ashes games particularly given the grounds and his record at some of those grounds."
George Bailey, Australia's T20 captain, tips Mitchell Johnson for a Test recall this winter.

It has a couple of problems here and there (like odd echoes to the dialogue), but it sports a couple dozen intriguing puzzles, it's well made, and it's well acted.
Although nothing about Keepsake sparks the furnace of mind-blowing innovation, it is still a well designed and thoroughly compelling game that traditional adventure game enthusiasts of any skill level can dive into and love every second of.
There are other minor niggles, but none should detract from the surprisingly entertaining experience that Keepsake offers.
An enjoyable adventure experience, with few technical flaws and shortfalls.
Those whose idea of a good adventure involves inventory puzzles and plenty of characters to talk to may be put off by the emphasis on solitary exploration and puzzle solving, particularly given the game's surface resemblance to other quest-style adventures. But the beautiful setting, along with an interesting storyline, clever puzzles, and lots of little magical touches all help to bring the game to life.
An adventure game that could have been much more if players weren't preoccupied with the game's poor voice acting and bugs. That said, if you're itching to play a new point-and-click PC adventure with good puzzles, you might not be disappointed with this sub-$30 game.

CalebC.May 16, 2006Beautiful graphics and music, excellent puzzles (and hint system), engaging storyline and the voice acting (NA version) is just fine, in spite of what you may have read to the contrary. A thumbs up and a hearty recommendation to all lovers of the Adventure game genre.… Expand
VladP.Apr 11, 2006Wonderful, beautiful, very beautiful. The music is lovely, the story is adorable. Now that's what I call a school of magic! This is the type of game that you never want to end. You just want it to go on and on.… Expand
MaraM.Dec 14, 2007This game has beautiful graphics, storyline, and I can't believe it's been so under-rated. In this day and age when games are so violent, this one is beautiful, has a good meaning, and is magical. I put this game up there with "The Longest Journey" and "Syberia"....truly beautiful, and fun to play, and the characters are fun and lively, the story enthralling. The artwork is so intricately detailed, and the fun is finding things and solving the puzzles. I loved traversing across the different levels of the "castle".....Truly an awesome game.… Expand
ClaudeP.Apr 30, 2006it is a nice game but there is too much talking and technically it is like going back 5 years ago even more and the ending is so full of cliché. Allways the same sound of footsteps or door opening and closing whatever the place. By chance the puzzles were good!… Expand
BrentL.Jun 25, 2008I give it a 3 because the puzzles weren't bad and the graphics and sound were passable. This game fails in every other way. The story, voice acting, pacing, gameplay, characterization and the presence of bugs are all disappointing. Comparisons to The Longest Journey can't be serious. (I haven't tried Syberia.) I might recommend this game to a 9 year old or a senior citizen who is unfamiliar with computers, but even then I'd have my doubts.… Expand
RonD.Nov 23, 2007Story: what story? Technical: can you run up and down a long flight of stairs three or four at a time? Have you ever heard footsteps continue after a person has stopped moving? Have you heard footsteps that sound exactly the same on grass as on a paved surface? Lydia also has boundless energy; she runs everywhere! Acting: voice acting, in the main, attrocious. Puzzles: lots of these; if that's all you want, by all means play this game, but watch out, you have to solve them in the right order! I could never have solved a lot of them without a walkthrough. Basically, boring and frustrating. I certainly would not dream of playing this game again. If you want just the opposite: two games of the year are The Longest Journey and Syberia (pt 1 & 2). These are games I can play over and over again. If you like adventures, with no violence or dying, I can recommend these two whole heartedly; worth double what they sell for! Just a word of caution: The Longest Journey has two characters who swear a lot - not recommended for a younger audience - rated T, I think. Syberia would suit any age. Make sure you get both 1 and 2, it's really just one game.… Expand

Question about AD Friends/Poss. Bullies
Find a Conversation
|Tue, 06-15-2010 - 5:48pm
Bella and I went to a friends house (just getting to know the mom) who has a son a year older then Bella.
|Tue, 06-15-2010 - 10:59pm
I would say, if the mother is making the effort to discipline the boy, you should let Bella see that is is NOT okay to punch/hs it/throw...etc. If she does see that the mom doesn't like it and is stopping it, then she probably won't get the idea that it's okay. Also, you can tell him, "No hitting" and remove him from Bella immediately, he'll get the message...if he wants to play with her, he can't hit her.
As the mother of an "energetic" kid, I worry about his energy overtaking him and him hurting another child, but my son is always so careful of anybody smaller than him, and he knows without a doubt, "NO HITTING EVER"...he raises his fists, he's removed from whatever he's doing, and he doesn't hit anymore
HTH...GL to you

|Cardiovascular Nanomedicine: From Novel Concepts to Clinical Translation
Recent insights in the immunobiology of atherosclerosis show great potential for anti-inflammatory strategies to improve anti-atherosclerotic therapies. However, it is also clear that we will have to develop tailored therapies that spare important protective functions of the immune system. The hope is that nanotechnology will guide delivery to culprit cells and to plaque, for instance with specific engineering of drug delivery particle properties such as size, surface composition and affinity ligands. Preclinical studies investigating nanotherapeutic interventions in atherosclerosis are sparse. Our efforts are devoted towards designing and producing novel atherosclerotic-specific nanotherapeutics. We study their functionality and effects in preclinical studies using different animal models by combining traditional histological assessments of plaque phenotype, which are complemented with gene expression and immunological readouts. The imaging-based study of nanoparticle targeting in therosclerosis has been one of our key efforts the past years. The integration of noninvasive imaging readouts also allows longitudinal assessment of atherosclerotic plaque changes as function of nanotherapy treatment regimen. Nanotherapy trials in patients are very costly and difficult to execute, which restricts the number of patients that can be included. In atherosclerosis patients another major challenge includes the determination of primary endpoints, i.e. the direct effects the nanotherapy may exert on vessel wall inflammation. Therefore, the integration of clinically viable imaging endpoints is a prerequisite. In recently initiated human nanotherapy trials in human subjects we apply F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography combined with CT (FDG-PET/CT) as well as dynamic contrast enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) as inflammation/metabolic imaging biomarkers to determine atherosclerosis drug efficacy. The above-described integration of engineering, nanotechnology, immunology and cardiovascular may yield precision diagnostics and efficient therapeutics for atherosclerosis and its ischemic complications.

|Laboratory Cardiovascular Imaging in Development and Disease
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the United States. Laboratory research aimed at understanding the cause and treatment of cardiovascular disorders holds the promise of bringing novel therapy for the future. Imaging modalities with application in small animal models that can precisely replicate clinical imaging techniques are necessary to carry out translational research in the laboratory setting. Several recent advances in imaging modalities have made this more feasible than ever in the past. The talk will address some of the more relevant cardiovascular imaging modalities currently used to evaluate both normal development and disease processes.

|Multimodal Simultaneous Imaging: Advances in MR-PET-EEG 3T and 9.4T in Humans
The aim of my presentation is twofold: Firstly, to explore the potential of simultaneously acquiring multimodal MR-PET-EEG data in a human 9.4T scanner to provide a platform for metabolic brain imaging; here, data from a 3T MR-PET as well as the 9.4T will be presented. Secondly, to demonstrate that the three modalities are complementary, with MRI having the potential to provide excellent structural and functional imaging, PET providing quantitative molecular imaging, and EEG providing superior temporal resolution.
A 9.4T MRI scanner equipped with a PET insert and a commercially available EEG device were used to acquire in vivo proton-based images, spectra, and sodium- and oxygen-based images with MRI; EEG signals from a human subject in a static 9.4T magnetic field; and demonstrate hybrid MR-PET capability in a rat model.
High-resolution images of the in vivo human brain with an isotropic resolution of 0.5mm and post mortem brain images of the cerebellum with an isotropic resolution of 320µm will be presented. A 1H spectrum was also acquired from 2x2x2mm voxel in the brain allowing 12 metabolites to be identified. Imaging based on sodium and oxygen will be demonstrated with isotropic resolutions of 2mm and 5mm, respectively. Preliminary data from auditory evoked potentials measured in a static field of 9.4T will also be shown. Finally, hybrid MR-PET capability at 9.4T in the human scanner will be demonstrated in a rat model. Initial progress on the road to 9.4 T multimodal MR-PET-EEG will be illustrated. Ultra-high resolution structural imaging, high-resolution images of the sodium distribution and proof-of-principle 17O data will be presented. Further, simultaneous MR-PET data without artefacts and EEG data acquired at 9.4 T will be shown.

|Multi-contrast X-ray Imaging
The basic physics of image formation and interpretation in x-ray biomedical imaging, including x-ray computed tomography (CT), have remained essentially unchanged since Röntgen first discovered x-rays in 1895. As a result, the absorption effect remains the sole intrinsic contrast mechanism for x-ray biomedical imaging. This is unlike magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), where multiple contrast mechanisms are available for use in specific applications. In this seminar, advances in the exploration of the wave and particle nature of x-rays to generate multiple contrast mechanisms in x-ray imaging will be discussed. Unlike other multi-contrast imaging modalities, the multiple contrast mechanisms in x-ray imaging are generated from the same data acquisition. The potential applications of these contrast mechanisms in future medical diagnosis and industrial applications will be discussed.

|New concepts for imaging tissue injuries in cardiology and oncology
Among acute coronary syndrome (ACS) cases, the presence of myocardial infarction (MI) can be diagnosed with a relatively high degree of confidence. However, the actual scope of myocardial injury can be variable and even extend substantially beyond the infarct zone. Such a parameter, which we call "global myocardial injury", will have important implications in the diagnosis, prognosis and management of ACS patients. In oncology, chemotherapeutic drugs are toxins for killing tumor cells, but their efficacy is often limited by the tolerance ceiling of normal tissues. We propose a whole-body imaging technique for characterizing the systemic tissue injury induced by anticancer drugs. A survey of systemic toxicity will provide information on a new drug candidate for pharmaceutical development, and on the therapeutic regimen for existing drug combinations for each patient. These goals can be accomplished using a new class of imaging agents with high target uptake and low systemic background. Data are presented for tracer development, with the introduction of new imaging concepts for assessing "global myocardial injury" in ACS and for detecting systemic tissue injury induced by anticancer drugs.

|MRI Cell Tracking: A Noninvasive Assay for Cancer Cell Dormancy and Metastasis
MRI is an excellent imaging modality for serially monitoring cellular events in vivo. Our laboratory is using magnetic biomaterials to label cells, and therefore allow their detection by MRI, in order to study a number of important biological phenomena ranging from stem cell transplantation, metastasis, immunotherapy and inflammation. This talk will describe the use of MRI cell tracking to study cancer cell metastasis and dormancy. Animal models of brain, breast and liver cancer will be highlighted. Advances in this field related to cell labeling, novel biomaterials, the MRI hardware and software for detection of cells and clinical implementation of our cellular MRI approaches will also be addressed.

|Evidence Based Hypothesis: ALPHA (Acidic lactate sequentially induced lymphangiogenes, phlebogenesis, and arteriogenesis) Lactate triggered glycyolytic vasculogenesis which complements the traditional concept of hypoxia-based vasculogenesis
The importance of vasculogenesis for cancer has been clearly established. Vasculogenesis for aerobic cancers is well known, however vasculogenesis for glycolysis (ALPHA) has only recently been described. The major tenents of glycolytic vasculogenesis differ remarkably from aerobic metabolism, in that oxygen/arteries are not as important as waste products and drainage vessels. Glycolysis uses only glucose which diffuses well and is actively transported, but it also makes large amounts of lactate which must be cleared. Lymphatics and veins are needed to clear and reduce lactate to prevent excessive lactate levels. Moderate lactate level acts a powerful procancer modulator (source of building substrates, cellular motility, invasiveness, etc). However, high lactate levels causes end product inhibition or low pH which slows or inhibits glycolysis. When this occurs, ATP and essential building substrates from glycolytic side reactions are reduced preventing cell growth, division, and proliferation. To produce vasculogenesis, lactate independent of oxygenation levels (normoxia, hypoxia, or hyperoxia) induces Hypoxia Induction factor (HIF1a), vascular growth factors and attracts angioblastic stem cells. The ensuing vessel morphogenesis and development sequentially produces lymphatics first, then veins, and arteries. This sequence has been confirmed by numerous animal model studies (de novo cancer, transfected VEGF gene, corneal growth factor implants, tumor xenografts).
From an imaging perspective, the ALPHA vasculogenesis concept provides new insights into the biologic basis of imaging perfusion measurements using CT and MRI. Contrary to the traditional theory, increased arterialization alone has not been useful for characterizing cancer. The perfusion parameters which have proven most useful are blood volume, contrast washout, kinetic curve analysis and Ktrans/Kep permeability. These are mostly dependent upon veins rather than arteries. Kinetic curve analysis and contrast washout depend on venous outflow. Vessel permeability measured by Ktrans and Kep occurs in the veins. Veins are the major contributor to total blood volume.

I can't help but to feel
that I took the fall
because I could take the fall.
I am still golden.
Maybe you needed a crutch.
You couldn't have made it this far without it.
I've come so far
and I've grown so much,
learning how to be happy with humanity's abstract concepts.
But I imagine you flying with invisible wings
and I wonder why I don't have wings
when I've worked so hard and so long to get them.
Wasn't it my goal to fly?
If you didn't have those wings, I'd imagine that you'd plummet.
But I'm so afraid
that if you couldn't fly
you would still be able to walk.

Visit Sarasota County taps additional funding
Date: April 23, 2014
by: Alex Mahadevan | Digital Content Producer
Visit Sarasota County, the local destination marketing firm, will have roughly $769,000 more to spend on promotions for the current fiscal year, after a split vote from Sarasota county commissioners Wednesday.
Commissioners voted 3-2 to increase the county's contract with Visit Sarasota County to $6.36 million, with Commissioner Joe Barbetta and Commissioner Christine Robinson dissenting.
The organization, formerly known as the Sarasota Convention and Visitors Bureau, will use the additional funding to promote two events at Nathan Benderson Park, advertise at an event in a Manhatten park and bolster its website engagement, among other initiatives. The newly earmarked funds were split between leftover revenues from tourist development taxes, which are collected on short-term rentals, and unspent funds from Visit sarasota County's previous fiscal year.
"We looked at where we could get the most bang for our buck," said Visit Sarasota County Director of Brand Erin Duggan during the commission meeting. The firm is in talks with Delta Air Lines for a promotion highlighting flights from Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport to Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport, and could sponsor a rowing regatta in Philadelphia to take advantage of a recent increase in visitors from the area.
But, Barbetta said he would prefer to see a portion of excess tourist tax revenues used for maintaining current sports facilities or creating new tourist attractions, such as a downtown aquarium, an equestrian facility in south county, or soccer and lacrosse fields.
"I'm a believer that the assets create the great place that we are and we need to expand on those assets" Barbetta said.
Commission Chairman Charles Hines said he supported more promotional spending this year due to the unexpected rowing events, but would agree for more infrastructure spending in the future.
