Hausdorff dimension
In mathematics, the Hausdorff dimension (also known as the Hausdorff–Besicovitch dimension) is an extended non-negative real number associated with any metric space. The Hausdorff dimension generalizes the notion of the dimension of a real vector space. That is, the Hausdorff dimension of an n-dimensional inner product space equals n. This means, for example, the Hausdorff dimension of a point is zero, the Hausdorff dimension of a line is one, and the Hausdorff dimension of the plane is two. There are, however, many irregular sets that have noninteger Hausdorff dimension.
The concept was introduced in 1918 by the mathematician Felix Hausdorff. Many of the technical developments used to compute the Hausdorff dimension for highly irregular sets were obtained by Abram Samoilovitch Besicovitch. The Hausdorff dimension is a successor to the simpler, but usually equivalent, box-counting or Minkowski–Bouligand dimension.

The intuitive concept of dimension of a geometric object X is the number of independent parameters one needs to pick out a unique point inside. However, any point specified by two parameters can be instead specified by one, because the cardinality of the real plane is equal to the cardinality of the real line (this can be seen by an argument involving interweaving the digits of two numbers to yield a single number encoding the same information.) The example of a space-filling curve shows that one can even take one real number into two both surjectively (so all pairs of numbers are covered) and continuously, so that a one-dimensional object completely fills up a higher-dimensional object.
Every space filling curve hits some points multiple times, and does not have a continuous inverse. It is impossible to map two dimensions onto one in a way that is continuous and continuously invertible. The topological dimension, also called Lebesgue covering dimension, explains why. This dimension is n if, in every covering of X by small open balls, there is at least one point where n+1 balls overlap. For example, when one covers a line with short open intervals, some points must be covered twice, giving dimension n = 1.
But topological dimension is a very crude measure of the local size of a space (size near a point). A curve that is almost space-filling can still have topological dimension one, even if it fills up most of the area of a region. A fractal has an integer topological dimension, but in terms of the amount of space it takes up, it behaves like a higher-dimensional space.
The Hausdorff dimension measures the local size of a space taking into account the distance between points, the metric. Consider the number N(r) of balls of radius at most r required to cover X completely. When r is very small, N(r) grows polynomially with 1/r. For a sufficiently well-behaved X, the Hausdorff dimension is the unique number d such that N(r) grows as 1/rd as r approaches zero. More precisely, this defines the box-counting dimension, which equals the Hausdorff dimension when the value d is a critical boundary between growth rates that are insufficient to cover the space, and growth rates that are overabundant.
For shapes that are smooth, or shapes with a small number of corners, the shapes of traditional geometry and science, the Hausdorff dimension is an integer agreeing with the topological dimension. But Benoît Mandelbrot observed that fractals, sets with noninteger Hausdorff dimensions, are found everywhere in nature. He observed that the proper idealization of most rough shapes you see around you is not in terms of smooth idealized shapes, but in terms of fractal idealized shapes:
Clouds are not spheres, mountains are not cones, coastlines are not circles, and bark is not smooth, nor does lightning travel in a straight line.[1]
For fractals that occur in nature, the Hausdorff and box-counting dimension coincide. The packing dimension is yet another similar notion which gives the same value for many shapes, but there are well documented exceptions where all these dimensions differ.
Formal definitions[edit]
Hausdorff content[edit]
Let X be a metric space. If S ⊂ X and d ∈ [0, ∞), the d-dimensional Hausdorff content of S is defined by
In other words, is the infimum of the set of numbers δ ≥ 0 such that there is some (indexed) collection of balls covering S with ri > 0 for each i ∈ I that satisfies . (Here, we use the standard convention that inf Ø =∞.)
Hausdorff dimension[edit]
The Hausdorff dimension of X is defined by
Equivalently, dimH(X) may be defined as the infimum of the set of d ∈ [0, ∞) such that the d-dimensional Hausdorff measure of X is zero. This is the same as the supremum of the set of d ∈ [0, ∞) such that the d-dimensional Hausdorff measure of X is infinite (except that when this latter set of numbers d is empty the Hausdorff dimension is zero).
- The Euclidean space Rn has Hausdorff dimension n.
- The circle S1 has Hausdorff dimension 1.
- Countable sets have Hausdorff dimension 0.
- Fractals often are spaces whose Hausdorff dimension strictly exceeds the topological dimension. For example, the Cantor set (a zero-dimensional topological space) is a union of two copies of itself, each copy shrunk by a factor 1/3; this fact can be used to prove that its Hausdorff dimension is ln(2)/ln(3) ≈ 0.63. The Sierpinski triangle is a union of three copies of itself, each copy shrunk by a factor of 1/2; this yields a Hausdorff dimension of ln(3)/ln(2) ≈ 1.58.
- Space-filling curves like the Peano and the Sierpiński curve have the same Hausdorff dimension as the space they fill.
- The trajectory of Brownian motion in dimension 2 and above has Hausdorff dimension 2 almost surely.
- An early paper by Benoit Mandelbrot entitled How Long Is the Coast of Britain? Statistical Self-Similarity and Fractional Dimension and subsequent work by other authors have claimed that the Hausdorff dimension of many coastlines can be estimated. Their results have varied from 1.02 for the coastline of South Africa to 1.25 for the west coast of Great Britain. However, 'fractal dimensions' of coastlines and many other natural phenomena are largely heuristic and cannot be regarded rigorously as a Hausdorff dimension. It is based on scaling properties of coastlines at a large range of scales; however, it does not include all arbitrarily small scales, where measurements would depend on atomic and sub-atomic structures, and are not well defined.
- The bond system of an amorphous solid changes its Hausdorff dimension from Euclidean 3 below glass transition temperature Tg (where the amorphous material is solid), to fractal 2.55±0.05 above Tg, where the amorphous material is liquid.[2]
Properties of Hausdorff dimension[edit]
Hausdorff dimension and inductive dimension[edit]
Let X be an arbitrary separable metric space. There is a topological notion of inductive dimension for X which is defined recursively. It is always an integer (or +∞) and is denoted dimind(X).
Theorem. Suppose X is non-empty. Then
where Y ranges over metric spaces homeomorphic to X. In other words, X and Y have the same underlying set of points and the metric dY of Y is topologically equivalent to dX.
These results were originally established by Edward Szpilrajn (1907–1976). The treatment in Chapter VII of the Hurewicz and Wallman reference is particularly recommended.
Hausdorff dimension and Minkowski dimension[edit]
The Minkowski dimension is similar to, and at least as large as, the Hausdorff dimension, and they are equal in many situations. However, the set of rational points in [0, 1] has Hausdorff dimension zero and Minkowski dimension one. There are also compact sets for which the Minkowski dimension is strictly larger than the Hausdorff dimension.
Hausdorff dimensions and Frostman measures[edit]
If there is a measure μ defined on Borel subsets of a metric space X such that μ(X) > 0 and μ(B(x, r)) ≤ rs holds for some constant s > 0 and for every ball B(x, r) in X, then dimHaus(X) ≥ s. A partial converse is provided by Frostman's lemma. That article also discusses another useful characterization of the Hausdorff dimension.
Behaviour under unions and products[edit]
If is a finite or countable union, then
This can be verified directly from the definition.
If X and Y are metric spaces, then the Hausdorff dimension of their product satisfies[3]
This inequality can be strict. It is possible to find two sets of dimension 0 whose product has dimension 1.[4] In the opposite direction, it is known that when X and Y are Borel subsets of Rn, the Hausdorff dimension of X × Y is bounded from above by the Hausdorff dimension of X plus the upper packing dimension of Y. These facts are discussed in Mattila (1995).
Self-similar sets[edit]
Many sets defined by a self-similarity condition have dimensions which can be determined explicitly. Roughly, a set E is self-similar if it is the fixed point of a set-valued transformation ψ, that is ψ(E) = E, although the exact definition is given below.
Theorem. Suppose
are contractive mappings on Rn with contraction constant rj < 1. Then there is a unique non-empty compact set A such that
The theorem follows from Stefan Banach's contractive mapping fixed point theorem applied to the complete metric space of non-empty compact subsets of Rn with the Hausdorff distance.[5]
The open set condition[edit]
To determine the dimension of the self-similar set A (in certain cases), we need a technical condition called the open set condition (OSC) on the sequence of contractions ψi.
There is a relatively compact open set V such that
where the sets in union on the left are pairwise disjoint.
The open set condition is a separation condition that ensures the images ψi(V) do not overlap "too much".
Theorem. Suppose the open set condition holds and each ψi is a similitude, that is a composition of an isometry and a dilation around some point. Then the unique fixed point of ψ is a set whose Hausdorff dimension is s where s is the unique solution of[6]
The contraction coefficient of a similitude is the magnitude of the dilation.
We can use this theorem to compute the Hausdorff dimension of the Sierpinski triangle (or sometimes called Sierpinski gasket). Consider three non-collinear points a1, a2, a3 in the plane R2 and let ψi be the dilation of ratio 1/2 around ai. The unique non-empty fixed point of the corresponding mapping ψ is a Sierpinski gasket and the dimension s is the unique solution of
Taking natural logarithms of both sides of the above equation, we can solve for s, that is: s = ln(3)/ln(2). The Sierpinski gasket is self-similar and satisfies the OSC. In general a set E which is a fixed point of a mapping
is self-similar if and only if the intersections
where s is the Hausdorff dimension of E and Hs denotes Hausdorff measure. This is clear in the case of the Sierpinski gasket (the intersections are just points), but is also true more generally:
Theorem. Under the same conditions as the previous theorem, the unique fixed point of ψ is self-similar.
Existence of sets with prescribed Hausdorff dimension[edit]
By generalizing the construction of the Cantor set, it is easy to construct subsets of Euclidean spaces with arbitrary Hausdorff dimension.[7][8]
It is also easy to see that if has Hausdorff dimension r, then any translation, rotation, or dilation of A has the same Hausdorff dimension r. So from a single bounded set of dimension r, we immediately generate continuum-many sets of dimension r by any of these operations (since the only translation or dilation fixing a bounded set A is the identity).
But it is also possible to show, for any given r ≥ 0, and integer n ≥ r, that there are at least continuum-many subsets of of Hausdorff dimension r which cannot be obtained from one another by translations, rotations, and dilations. For example, this should be true of the above-cited constructions using generalized Cantor sets, although the cited sources do not verify this.

In a previous incarnation, Robinella and her husband, multi-instrumentalist and arranger Cruz Contreras, cut Robinella & the CC Band, an album that blended the swing of Bob Wills and Duke Ellington, with a side of Bill Monroe. Solace is less eclectic and more focused, living up to its name with a moody menu heavy on heartache, remorse and melancholy. Robinella's songwriting has taken a great leap forward; these tunes sound like torchy standards that would have been perfect for Patsy Cline or Julie London. The supporting musicians are stellar, providing sympathetic backing for Robinella's subtle vocals, full of understated passion and unspoken regret. The songs are made for late-night rumination, but the sunshine does break through now and again. "Little Boy," a tribute to her new son, is a bouncy bit of Memphis funk complete with Hammond B3 and Hi-hat fills that tip their hat to Howard Grimes (house drummer at Hi Records), and "Oh So Sexy" is a playful hybrid of ska and country two-step.

Amanda & Marcel's Florida engagement session was a gift from their friend Mireya at Axiom Photo Studio. "From the moment Marcel and I got engaged, Mireya called us up and said…'I have a vision' " Amanda told me. "She told us where and when to meet and she would take care of the rest. I decided to hit up a few Goodwill stores the night before and ended up getting my entire wardrobe for under $20. She knew she wanted to capture "us" and "Miami" and she really did. She took us to some kick-ass graffiti walls in Wynwood and then we traveled back to Little Havana for some cafecito. The whole shoot took about four hours and we all had a blast (including our 2 chihuahuas)."

Tamanna & Tanveer's Muslim Wedding Celebration
You don't see enough Asian weddings in blog land which surprises me really as they are so colourful and full of love that one would think they were perfect blogging material. Luckily for me, photographer Tapas Maiti, who specialises in these weddings, send me this gorgeous Muslim wedding last week. I have a couple of Indian friends and I am always intrigued to hear about their epic wedding celebrations and how different they are to the western wedding. They are all about colour, family and fun!
"Tamanna & Tanveer are Bengali Muslims from Bangladesh and the wedding ceremony itself is called a Nikah." Tapas told me. "It is quite common for the Nikah to be undertaken as a private family affair with an community elder or Imam. The Wedding Reception is the opportunity to announce themselves to their friends and relatives."
A South African, Eclectic, Red-Infused Spectacular
I didn't plan today's post this way but when I was uploading all the images for the weddings I selected I realised we're going to be taking a little trip all around the world – starting with this amazing red themed wedding from South Africa!
Philip & Jay's wedding took place at Le Franschhoek Hotel and Spa, overlooking the spectacular South African landscape. The location made for some really unusual and fun places for their portraits. The incredible decor was all organised by Andele of Aleit Wedding Planners who was able to perfectly capture their vision of a eclectic, red-infused spectacular! I am totally nuts about those red glasses hanging from the roof and the ornate chandelier lying on the table – just amazing and so so original!
Maria Lluïsa Rabell – Magical Dress Inspiration
This is not the usual post I put up but sometimes there are exceptions to be made. I received an email from reader Claire the other day who told me "I nearly died when I saw these dresses". Hell, I can see why. Serious swoon-fest over here. I want them all!
The Barcelona-based designer Maria Lluïsa Rabell blends contemporary subtle lines and elegance with amazing technical flair and ability. Unique, out-there and original. Have you ever seen anything like these? They have such a magical, romantic feminine feel don't they?
Night of the Living Wed
This ghoulish, retro horror themed wedding may not be everybodys cup of tea but I can't help but be a little over-excited about it. So. Much. Originality! Photographer Al, who has just been shortlisted for 'Tattoo Photographer of the Year' was keen to tell me all about Ash and Michelle Ghoulmore's (oh yes!) friday the 13th wedding.
The couple run retro rebels store and the horror-themed clothing company Kreepsville 666 so their wedding was always going to be a spooky special. 'Ghoulmore' actually is Ash's surname and they pretty much live Halloween everyday, so it was fitting to pick a horror / b-movie inspired Wedding theme (be sure to check out their awesome invite at the end of the gallery too!)
"This meant I had to light the formals in a slightly different way to ensure I got that punchy highly saturated contrasty feel that fits with the mood" photographer Al told me. "This was the first time I've seen a smoke machine used during the ceremony! The archway was decorated with skulls and light like a stage. As you can see form the photos the cake was a skull and all the attendees got to take home a set of cast-silver effect fangs to say 'fangs for coming' [groan]. Zombina and the Skeletones provided the live music for the reception, again fitting the horror-rockabilly theme."
Michelle looked every bit the rock princess in her two dresses, firstly a custom made creation from Limb Clothing, and for the reception/evening a gorgeous Vivien of Holloway gown.
Vintage Lace & Rock n Roll
Check out Ursula & Chris' fantastically cool wedding. I fell in love with it as soon as I saw her Claire Pettibone dress (I wrote about these dresses a while back beacause they are called the 'rock n roll bride' collection!) Oh holy black tulle! "'I fell in love with my 'Midnight' gown from Claire Pettibone's rock and roll bride range the moment I tried it on. The mix of vintage style, beautiful beading, delicate embroidery and edgy black train make it a very special dress. I just loved the way my long veil looked against the slightly gothic black train. Breathtaking!" Ursula explained.

So after trying so many red Lipsticks (including Riri woo & Ruby woo) & being disappointed, I found Russian Red. I'm so amazed by this lipstick and It doesn't dry out my lips the way the others do. This is my go-to red!
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I tried this lipstick on and it looked terrible on me I really didn't like it. It was too bold I looked like a clown
I LOVE this color, I was looking for a red color lipstick to try out and see if I could pull it off. I read the reviews online about this color and rushed out to buy it. I was in love. I get tons of compliments when I wear it.
I recently purchased Mac's Russian Red Lipstick last week! It is a very neutral red with blue undertones which makes my teeth look white. I am an NC 30-35 in Mac
PACKAGING: Same as other Mac lipsticks. It comes in a simple black bullet type packaging. Sleek and simple. It is easy to carry around with me and it makes a click sound when I close it.
LONGEVITY: On my bare lips without lip balms, it lasts about 4 to 5 hours (drinking and eating a meal). My lips tend to get dry within 2 hours without lip balm but with the lipstick on. If I apply lip balm underneath the lip stick, it lasts for about 3 hours at most. What I like about it is that the lipstick has a matte finish. If I have a lip balm underneath, it leaves my lips with a bit of shine.
PRICE: I bought if for SGD$39. It is pricey for a lipstick but I would buy it again because of the cool toned red which suits most skin tone. It is not one those reds that screams right at your face!
PIGMENTATION: Super pigmented. Dab it on your lips for a lighter application. I dab it on lightly with a light hand to give a natural berry red to the lips for everyday. I feel like this lipstick is very versatile! Heavy application: Marilyn Monroe red type of lips. I love it for night time!
In conclusion, I would not repurchase it again if I am done with the lipstick. There are tons of lipstick shades out there in the market and I do not like to restrict myself to a certain shade. I like to explore and try out other lipsticks of different shades, tones and texture etc. But I have a very good experience with this lipstick so far. Would recommend but will not repurchase for myself :)

I finally broke down and splurged on this iconic lipstick. This is a beautiful classic, elegant red. It works with jeans and a tee or a glamourous evening gown. Not quite as bright as what I thought, or what I wanted so that is a bit disapointing. My daughter says this is a good "winter red" for me. I agree but I want that perfect "forever," HG, compliment catching, red. This is a true blue based red, yet leaning neutral, in my opinion. I think many people could pull this off, which is probably why its such a favorite. I love the feel of this. It applies beautifully and even and doesn't take alot to get full coverage. I can swipe on my bottom lip, put a bit on my top lip, perfect with a brush and Tada! Perfect red lips. Its matte ( I love matte red lips) but not dry and on me it lasts all day. It stays comfortable, light, and if you need a touch up it never feels heavy or thick. My favorite aspect of Russian Red is that the color stays true - ALL DAY AND NIGHT-no matter how heavy or lightly applied and it doesn't turn orange or fushia as the day wears on. Is it worth the $15 price tag. Ahhh, I'm cheap so ,no, not really. I do think its a bit high priced and its not as bright as I want but I do love the feel so I may try another red MAC lipstick like Ruby woo.
On another note, for those of you who are afraid of red ,Russian Red is probably the perfect place to start for a really good red lipstick. Many have claimed there are drugstore dupes for this- no- there's not a TRUE dupe, especially color wise. Some come close, very close, but if you can afford this- get it.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
First off, I absolutely adore mac lip products especially their lipsticks.the texture is creamy and I love that it is so ridiculously pigmented and that it lasts almost the whole day.the shade russian red is to die for, its the most gorgeous shade of red and suits both cool toned and warm toned skin and personally the perfect red lipstick that everyone needs.to be honest I have no idea why this product doesnt have a 5 star rating but maybe thats just me.....anyways I LOVE this lipstick and everyone should definitely try it out.
In my opinion: PERFECT red lipstick. You have to moisturize your lips first, normal lipbalm will be ok, then you put the lipstick on, and you're ready to go!

Viva Glam I is what started my love affair with red lipstick, but Russian Red is what really solidified it. Russian Red is a really intense medium red with a bluish undertone. It's a matte finish, so it can be a little drying, even with a primer. You could always try using an lip exfoliator before applying this.
This is an awesome "evening type" lipstick. I don't like wearing it during the day time because I feel that on my olive complexion, it does seem too look way too dramatic for the office. I tend to always pair this color up with a winged cat eyeliner for that perfect subtle look.
Definitely a must have for anyone that loves reds.

Great go to classic red lipstick, always good for that glamorous or retro look. Long lasting if slightly dry but no where near as drying as Ruby Woo. I recommend this for anyone finding it difficult to find the perfect red as I think it would suit everyone.

Love this dark matte red lipstick, it is a little bit drying but that is to be expected. Looks great on my NC20 skin, this is my favorite mid/dark red.

I have been taken creative writing classes that the senior Center on Mammoth road. It was offered for a price that I can afford on a fixed income. How I look forward to Friday afternoons to meet with new friends and to share the lessons we have learned.
Exercises in writing about setting a scene, creating conflicts and making our characters real are but a few things that the elder students are learning. We enjoy the challenges and have come to know each other on a more personal basis. We have become close friends and that was not a lesson; it was because of the classes that we came to know each other. For that reason alone I hope that more seniors will join the Mayflower Grange Senior Center. They have so much more to offer.
Our teacher is a young mother with all the patience one needs to teach all age groups. Considering her age, she is almost as wise as her senior students.
If Anne is reading this, I smiled as I was writing this and wonder at her reaction. Hopefully I have written well enough to show her that I have been paying attention in class. Fiction writing is totally different from writing about one's memories. It is a craft that comes out of your brain and not from a reservoir of remembrances'.
Imagine the feeling of writing a good story that has been created from imagination, your imaginations coming to life in print form. The ideas and words belong to only you. Sharing the workings of your brain with the public is a brave endeavor.
The senior center is a fun place to be. The older citizen's of Londonderry have a choice of playing board games, of sharing their talents, staying well and just simply chatting with others.
Until the spring season arrives, the writing lesson have been put on hold me and my class will be continuing to meet for we are friends of a feather. The feather being the writing implement of the past; a feathered pen dipped into an ink well.
The Girl Scouts of America have a song that states; make new friends but save the old for one is silver and the other gold. I encourage all of our senior citizens to join a senior center. They will find that their lives will be lined with silver and will add to the glitter of the gold.
Learn more about Anne Kelsey, her innovative, instructional and fun classes at the "Dare To Write" website.
Editors Note: Lorraine Cookson passed away on October 27, 2013 after a brief illness. As one of our first columnists, she was very active with the Senior Center and attended nearly all the events in Town. In memory of Lorraine, we will reprint each one of her columns on Sunday mornings.

Stuart O'Grady
An interview with Stuart O'Grady
It's been a little more than seven months since Stuart O'Grady retired from the sport and, a day or so later, admitted to using EPO in preparation for the 1998 Tour de France. Now, on the eve of the release of his book, "Battle Scars", Stuart O'Grady is on a media tour to talk about […]
Ride a kilometre in O'Grady's shoes before judging
I get it. I get why riders in past generations used performance-enhancing drugs. I'm not saying it's right nor do I condone it, but I get it.
The Statesmen of the Peloton
I've been reading Robbie McEwen's autobiography "One Way Road" which has been fascinating on a few different levels. The book is a good reminder of the generation of riders still racing but are in the twilight of their careers. Most of them are acting as mentors for the younger riders and no longer getting the […]

About Mary Manns
I grew up in central Minnesota, where I always lived on or near a lake and golf course. Many of my years were spent on Green Lake in Spicer, MN, close to Little Crow Country Club.
When we are at our condo, the entire family stays well entertained with the lake and golf course on the same property.
We have activities here, at Northern Bay for ages 1-100. The memories and experiences are priceless.
Mary Manns purchased this condo in 2010
Why Mary Manns chose Castle Rock Lake
We love the fact that Castle Rock Lake is the 4th largest lake in WI, and it has restaurants and gas stations which we can pull up to with our boats. The condo is 200 miles from Chicago as well as 200 miles from Mpls. It is a beautiful drive to the lake; therefore we feel our vacation begins the minute we get into our vehicles. Northern Bay is 30 minutes from Wisconsin Dells and 24 miles from Ho Chunk Casino, so if people want a diversion from the activities at the resort, other activities are located close by.
What makes this condo unique
The first time I came to Northern Bay, I was so surprised to see such an extravagant resort "pop out of nowhere". Once we settle into our condo, we put our groceries away, and then plan our activities. We never have to use the car, because everything is within walking distance from the condo. We have a replica 18-hole golf course with pro shop, restaurant and bar, large swimming pool, kiddie pool, spa,
tennis courts, basketball hoops, Tikki Bar, large groomed beach, marina, trails for biking, hiking, ATV's, and snowmobiles. The best part of all of this is, if you choose to be with people, you can, but you can also find all the peace and quiet you would want or need. We love it, and we hope you will too!

"Most of the time when we talk about patient centricity, what we really mean is that we are going to study and understand the patient so that we can filter our expertise and share the part of our expertise that we think they need to hear more to understand, so its patient centricity with a bunch of caveats. And I think we can do better," Roni Zeiger, MD, co-founder of Smart Patients (www.smartpatients.com), a web site that links patients to clinical trials and each other told the clinical trials industry audience at the Partnerships conference in early April.
Zeiger can use the term "we" because he practiced medicine prior to joining Google Health, and then founding Smart Patients. As first a clinician, then a person that deals with online communities, particular in the oncology space, he said his biggest "ah ha" moment was "patients in general don't view clinical trials as experiments, they view them as treatment options."
So, says Zeiger, right there many disconnects result based on the industry building an experiment in clinical trials, but the patient viewing trials as a treatment option.
This is important to Zeiger's point that the industry should be looking at clinical trials from a user-centered design process. "For example, when we design a clinical trial, whose problem are we solving? What is the use case that we are trying to optimize?" asked Zeiger. He reiterated that while those in the industry may come at the clinical trial for the biotech or pharma problem, or constraints imposed by regulators, if industry considered that the product biopharm builds is for patients, the end-user, that would turn the process to a true patient-centric experience.
In the panel that followed Zeiger's keynote, Zeiger moderated a group comprised of patients, internet organizations and industry. And one suggestion from Steven Mikita, Assistant Attorney General, Utah; Board of Directors, Spinal Muscular Atrophy Foundation, and a Patient Representative for CTTI, was completely around the topic of informed consent—the form which goes to the heart of differentiating treatment options from experiments for the patient's understanding.
"My attorney hat tells me I get the fact that informed consents have to have certain requirements, but I'm kind of in favor of pharma using different formats to inform patients. Traditional forms of informed consent is not as successfully as using a video and an iPad, but using a video and using an iPad and then asking the patient quiz questions really does do a much more effective and efficient job in helping retention," Mikita commented. He continued that you don't need to "jettison" the legal and regulatory requirements, but offered the consideration of a layered approach. One that helps comprehension, and builds trust for the patient, offers the trial fundamentals toward a better informed consent process.

About me
My first two historical novels, WHEN WE WERE STRANGERS (HarperCollins, 2011) and SWIMMING IN THE MOON (HarperCollins, 2013) deal with the immigration experience, worker justice, women's issues, and treatment of mental illness. My interest in immigration comes from the 10 years I lived in Italy and fascination with the challenge, the strange pleasures, and the displacement of being "a stranger." Now I live in Knoxville, TN (a displaced Northerner) with my husband Maurizio, a physicist, and Jesse, the dog.
My academic background is Renaissance literature, and for many years I wrote short stories for pleasure while working as a professional writer of scripts, speeches, articles, and brochures. I've taught writing at the University of Maryland, European Division and the University of Tennessee where I was writer in residence.

While we still do not have a definite answer as to how long he has been upset with the company, we do know now that CM Punk was already contemplating a departure from WWE as early as Royal Rumble 2014. He vented to Mick Foley at the time about not being happy within the company and having trouble dealing with injuries.
After he was pulled from Royal Rumble 2014 at the last minute, Evan Bourne told fans on Twitter that he was still working on making his return to WWE, but as of right now, it does not appear that management is making that a priority backsage.
Since the company wanted to sell the brutality of Brock Lesnar for his match against Big Show at Royal Rumble 2014, they had Mark Henry work an injury angle and take a couple of weeks off. It looks the former world champion is returning to WWE, possibly as soon as Monday Night Raw this week.
After what took place at Royal Rumble 2014, WWE officials were concerned that the audience at Monday Night Raw was going to hijack the event by voicing their opinions, so in order to help squash some of that and control the crowd, management had Daniel Bryan cutting a promo to open up the show.
Long known backstage as someone with a short fuse, Randy Orton was said to be irate with the fans at Royal Rumble 2014 because he feels that they interrupted his performance against John Cena by openly rooting for Daniel Bryan. Orton does have a history of being upset with audiences.
When Alexander Rusev made his debut at Royal Rumble 2014, many were under the impression that it was a permanent call up to the main roster. However, it appears that management wants the developmental wrestler to have a little more seasoning by working in WWE NXT for a few more weeks.
Despite not being utilized on Monday Night Raw or Smackdown in almost two full years, Yoshi Tatsu, who was sent back down to developmental, has maintained some level of popularity on social media, as the WWE star now has 300,000 followers on Twitter.
As many already know, Yoshi Tatsu is no longer on the road, and he has not been utilized regularly at live events in quite some time. He has been doing some training down at the WWE Performance Center, and he's now also training developmental wrestlers as well.
Many backstage in WWE are surprised that Yoshi Tatsu has managed to stick with the company. He has not toured with the main roster for quite some time now. He also was replaced by Wade Barrett last year when the company needed to do some promotions in Asia.
While he has not been seen on television in quite some time, Yoshi Tatsu is still with WWE. The Japanese wrestler has been training with the company at the performance center. Tatsu has been working closely with Dusty Rhodes on improving himself as a character.
Alberto Del Rio won Royal Rumble 2011 by last eliminating Santino Marella. Other participants in the match include Alex Riley, Big Show, Booker T, Bray Wyatt, Chavo Guerrero, Chris Masters, CM Punk, Curtis Axel, Daniel Bryan, David Otunga, Dolph Ziggler, Drew McIntyre, Ezekiel Jackson, Great Khali, Heath Slater, Hornswoggle, Jack Swagger, John Cena, John Morrison, JTG, Justin Gabriel, Kane, Kevin Nash, Kofi Kingston, Mark Henry, Mason Ryan, R Truth, Randy Orton, Rey Mysterio, Sheamus, Ted DiBiase, Tyler Reks, Tyson Kidd, Vladimiz Kozlov, Wade Barrett, William Regal, Yoshi Tatsu and Zack Ryder.
Edge won Royal Rumble 2010 by last eliminating John Cena. The other contestants in the match include Batista, Beth Phoenix, Big Show, Carlito, Chris Jericho, Chris Masters, CM Punk, Cody Rhodes, Dolph Ziggler, Drew McIntyre, Evan Bourne, Great Khali, Jack Swagger, John Morrison, JTG, Kane, Kofi Kingston, Mark Henry, Matt Hardy, MVP, R Truth, Shawn Michaels, Shelton Benjamin, Ted DiBiase, The Miz, Triple H, Yoshi Tatsu and Zack Ryder.

When navigation systems started showing up in the center stacks of luxury vehicles, the new (at the time) tech typically would set owners back a couple grand or more (and still does). As we gear up for 2010, mapping tech is everywhere from the most expensive luxury sleds to economical hatchbacks, but there is still one problem. If you want an LCD screen with navigation capability, the option will still set you back from over $1,000 to above and beyond $2,000 in most cases. The only exception is Suzuki, which includes its TRIP nav system as standard equipment on the sub-$20k SX4.
Nissan is looking to change the navi pricing paradigm by offering a $400 navigation system in some of its high volume 2010 MY products. That's $400, or the same price as Ford's LCD-less SYNC system. Or less than half the price of most options available in vehicles today. The nav system, which was developed by Nissan and Bosch, gives directions, integrates your tunes with USB and Aux inputs and has integrated Bluetooth connectivity for hands-free calling. The low cost system also connects with a backup camera and can help you save money by pointing out the route that will cost you the least fuel.
The Detroit News reviewed the nav system in 2010 Nissan Sentra and came away impressed with its overall operation, though the smallish five-inch LCD screen was reportedly a bit hard to read at times. We're hoping low cost navvies are here to stay, and with the ultra-competitive nature of the auto industry, we're thinking any automaker that doesn't follow Nissan's lead will be at a major competitive disadvantage.

Just hours after United Hardware opened the doors to its June Buying Market, it was setting records for attendance and sales. Retailers crowded into the Thursday afternoon market preview to take advantage of special deals and see highlights of the market, which was held at the Minneapolis Convention Center, June 16-19.
The Thursday afternoon preview focused on the co-op's store of Opportunity, which had new assortments, special deals and United Hardware's new upscale store décor package. According to Steve Draeger, president and CEO of United Hardware, the Market drew a record number of retailers who were not afraid to buy products and programs that would make their stores more profitable. "Opening sales broke our records," he says. Despite a sluggish economy, "people are investing in their stores."

Very Good Printer
09.13.2014 by pursegurl
this a very good air printer. it works great at home. it was easy to setup not to many problems. it does get tired, a student I print a lot of papers. my papers can be 13 or more pages one sided as the evening wears on it gets tired. I rest it about 15 mins then it is good to go. the only problem I have had is: out of town for the summer it would not connect to my hotspot, library WI-FI, or someone's home WI-FI. so for 3 months I was not able to use it. It is not so small as to be a mobile printer but I need my own printer (less family conflicts), I was not a happy camper. I get home plug in, WI-FI on and it prints just like it had been printing everyday. it works well with my hotspot at home too, weird dude it is. So it loves having a home not traveling around the US. so I call it homeboy.
Wonderful Printer (Print, Scan, Copy and Photo)
09.10.2014 by LarryGM
PRO: You can't find a better wireless duplex printing machine at this price. It is resonably fast and produces excellent color photos. When setup for Wireless (WiFi) it can support all your printers on your home network. Within minutes of setup my daughter sent 15 pages that she wanted printed duplex (duplex color printing both sides). To prevent any smearing on the flip side of the page, this printer automatically pauses for a few seconds to allow the ink on side one to dry. As it pauses, it will send an onscreen message to the requestor that it is paused for drying (about 5 seconds). CON: The black ink cartridge supplied with this printer is extremely small in capacity. This is not a problem as larger ink cartridges are available at retail (low cost.) If you want to avoid changing them just buy the XL (Hi Yield). The unit did not have a printed manual to describe operation of the printer/paper handling but an online version is available. Comment: some people report paper jamming but I have none. I have seen this complaint on many printers and the cause is usually paper weight and quality. I always use 24 lb Bright White and among all printers including this one - have not experienced jamming. I would avoid using 20 lb low cost paper as it is low in fabric content and tends to be slick.

Town Council trustees resolve conflict; restructure executive committee during special meeting
After weeks of finger-pointing and accusations that some feared threatened to derail one of La Jolla's oldest and most venerated community organizations, the La Jolla Town Council moves forward with a reconfigured executive committee and a few apologies.
By Pat Sherman
Discord among members of the La Jolla Town Council's (LJTC's) executive committee — which led to the resignations of board president Cindy Greatrex and three executive committee members — was apparently resolved during a special meeting Sept. 4, called for by council trustees Steven Haskins, Nancy Gardner and Peter Wulff.
The meeting was held to discuss the actions of immediate past-president Rick Wildman during an Aug. 2 executive committee meeting, and the absence of first vice-president Ken King from regularly scheduled executive committee and board meetings. Action items on Tuesday's meeting agenda included the censure of Wildman and the removal of King from his role as first vice-president.
During the August LJTC meeting, Greatrex abruptly resigned from her position as president, followed by the subsequent resignations of fellow executive committee members John Weinstein (second vice-president), Sonia Marie Olivas (secretary) and David Woo (treasurer).
Though at the time the executive committee members declined to elaborate on the reason for their departures, during Tuesday's meeting, held at the La Jolla Rec Center, Weinstein said they stepped down "partly in protest" for the way Wildman treated Greatrex during the Aug. 2 executive committee meeting.
Recounting the events that led to his resignation, Weinstein said he received a phone call from Wildman the night prior to the Aug. 2 meeting, "just basically criticizing the current president with things that didn't really make sense to me, that seemed kind of trivial and manufactured."
Weinstein said he felt there was "some other agenda" behind the call, noting that Wildman also phoned other trustees that evening.
At the executive committee meeting the following night (at which King was not present), the trustees discussed King's absences during a three-month period.
Though King said he told Weinstein in advance that the executive committee meetings occurred at the same time as mandatory board meetings of the Rotary Club of La Jolla (for which he serves as treasurer), and that he was taking some vacation time, Weinstein said King "never responded to Cindy or any of the other executive committee members about his absence or made any effort to do other work.
"There was no reason he couldn't have (taken on) other responsibility, whatever time was convenient for him," Weinstein said.
Though Wildman said King had been in communication with him during his absence, Weinstein said King should also have been communicating with current council president Greatrex and other executive committee members.
"It just seemed like they were kind of hatching some plan, like they had something going on," Weinstein said.

Find the perfect Polaris Snowmobile for your riding needs and style.
After 900 miles and coming off a 2010 Switchback 800 Drago, I love this sled.
It has more than enough power. I rode 500 miles alongside 800 Pro R's and they could not believe the performance of this sled.
Oil consumption and gas mileage also is very impressive. Polaris Indy 600 - back and better than ever!
I just bought this sled the other day. I went from a '97 Indy Ultra SP to this. What a difference! This sled is phenomenal. Power: It has tons of it! Weight: So light! You can just lean to where you want and it goes there. You don't have to throw a ton of weight one way or the other to move this machine around! Styling: I love the new Pro Ride front end style! Reliability: It's a great sled with the proven 600. Fuel injection is an awesome plus for one of their baseline sleds! I love it! Price: I would say they have the price in a not too bad range for what you get. It's the most solid, nimble, best looking (in my opinion) sled for your buck. I have 76 miles on my SP, and five hours. This Indy SP is definitely worth a look! if you are in the market for a performance trail sled!!

The formula for success is extravagant conduct plus publicity, and Kim, a bizarre American, is determined to be a success. But all he has to offer is himself. . . .

Read about the newest BDUs, tacpants, and jumpsuits for law enforcement.
American law enforcement would react faster, with more courage than its Indian counterparts and that would make it harder for terrorists to slaughter citizens.
The truth is that the state of American law enforcement is a very fluid thing.
For two years the Alameda County (Calif.) Sheriff's Department has organized and hosted Urban Shield, the nation's largest SWAT exercise. The 48-hour competition involves 25 tactical teams working 24 realistic scenarios. This year's event was held Sept. 12–15, and POLICE editor David Griffith was on the scene.
The police officers who attended this year's TREXPO East keynotes were awed by the patriotism and heroism of the men who spoke at the event. They gathered afterward to shake hands with and have their pictures taken with these great Americans.
In the last few years UA has introduced product lines in such diverse areas as hunting, working out, and casual wear. Now Under Armour also has a line of tactical wear, which includes the Generation II Tactical Pants.
