PANAMA CITY BEACH, Fla. (AP) - Visitors at a Florida Panhandle zoo are getting a rare opportunity to interact with 9-week-old African lion cubs.
ZooWorld officials are allowing the public brief slots to play with the two cubs, saying the human interaction is an important part of socializing the animals so they will be manageable when they are full-grown.
The Panama City News Herald (http://lb.vg/c230E ) reports the brother and sister cubs have not been named.
The cubs can only interact with the public until they reach 40 pounds. They weigh about 17 pounds now and will probably hit the 40-pound limit by the end of August.
For now, the cubs have to go home with zoo staffers at night because they require round-the-clock care.

Maybe it was a visit from our Irish friends that were here for a month on sabbatical. Maybe it was the cold, crisp fall weather outside.

KTM riders Steve Holcombe and Jane Daniels have clinched the Under 19 and Women's British Sprint Enduro Championship titles following winning performances at rounds seven and eight of the 2012 BSEC series.
Adding to a great weekend for KTM, Jonny Walker finished first overall in the Under 23 class with a 2/2 result, while Daryl Bolter secured another podium finish in the Elite class having placed third on both days.
KTM mounted Steve Holcombe continued his winning results at the penultimate rounds of the championship at Adstone, Northampton to secure the Under 19 title. With overnight rain making conditions extremely wet and muddy, Holcombe immediately set an impressive pace during round seven. Winning all but one of the day's eight special tests in the Under 19 class, Holcombe comfortably placed over three minutes clear of his nearest rival to earn his seventh win of the series.
With conditions improved for round eight, the KTM rider again quickly placed himself at the front of his class. Steadily increasing his winning margin throughout the day, Holcombe recorded his eight win of the season and with it claimed the Under 19 BSEC championship.
In the Elite class Daryl Bolter secured another strong result. Setting the third fastest time on lap one at round seven, he maintained a strong pace throughout the day to finish third. Fastest on the opening lap at round eight, Bolter enjoyed a close battle with KTM mounted Tom Church as the duo scrapped it out for the runner up position. A small crash during the final lap pushed Bolter back to third at round eight but his result was enough to secure third overall in the Elite class while maintaining his second overall position in the Elite class championship.
Hopeful of a strong result at Adstone, Tom Church endured a crash filled round seven. Battling his way back up the leader board, Church eventually placed fourth in the Elite class. Feeling much more confident in the direr conditions at round eight, Church greatly improved his pace as the day progressed to finish as runner-up behind winner Alex Salvini. With two rounds remaining, Church now sits third overall in the championship standings.
Making a one-off appearance in the BSEC, Jamie Law produced a strong ride at round seven to place fifth in the Elite class before ending round eight in eighth.
In the Under 23 class, Jonny Walker placed first overall. Working hard to recover from some mistakes in the muddy conditions during round seven, Walker finished less than 20 seconds behind class winner Alex Rockwell to place second. Starting round eight in a determined mood, Walker opened up a 19 second advantage by mid afternoon. However a crash during the final test of the day robbed Walker of a chance of victory but his combined result was still enough to secure the overall Under 23 class win.
It was yet another successful weekend for Jane Daniels in the Women's class. Comfortably winning rounds seven and eight of the series, in securing her eighth win of the championship she clinched the Women's British Sprint Enduro Championship.
The ACU British Sprint Enduro Championship concludes with rounds nine and ten at Canada Heights on June 16/17.
Steve Holcombe, Under 19 (1-1): "It's been a really good season for me and I'm delighted to have won the Under 19 championship so soon. I knew I could win the championship this weekend so I just tried to ride as smart and as safe as I could to get it done. Winning every round of the championship so far had been an unexpected bonus."
Daryl Bolter, Elite (3-3): "I enjoyed the conditions this weekend. They were tricky at round seven but at round eight the course was much drier. I started off fast and was able to hold an early lead during the morning. I'm pleased with my riding and I can see myself improving as the championship progresses. We worked a little on the setup of the bike this weekend and it helped a lot. I'm looking forward to the final round of the season in Canada Heights where hopeful I can get another good result."
Tom Church, Elite (4-2): "It started off tough at round seven when I had a big crash in the woods but I was pleased to have recovered to finish fourth. Round eight was a big improvement. I felt I rode solid all day, aside from a crash on the penultimate test, and was able to set a strong pace that which helped me to finish second."
Jonny Walker, Under (2-2): "I'm annoyed with myself for crashing on the final lap of round eight as it meant I finished second. I caught a tree root leading into a right-hander and tucked the front wheel pretty hard. I was pleased with the way I had been riding but unfortunately that's just the way racing goes sometimes."
Jamie Law, Elite (5-8): "It was good to experience this type of racing and try to learn something new. I enjoyed my time and did my best to improve on the wooded sections. It was very slippery at round seven but round eight was much better and hopefully I can come back and do another few rounds of the series."
Jane Daniels, Women's (1-1): "I knew I could win the championship so I just tried to have a steady weekend. Aside from a few mistakes here and there everything went really well and I was able to secure the title. It's been a great season so far and I'm delighted to have won it."

PIANO TIMES.....! Hi, What could be the reason for the usage of Piano in Old movies . People in those movies also were very modernly dressed , using Pipes, Night gowns, Clubbing, Dancing ,Gambling , Drinking ,Horse riding etc. Was this culture absorbed into movies from British rule or rich people of those times were so Modern and Stylish ?

Piano contributes a vital ingredient in the neo-cultural reconstruct of emotion. Mainstream cinema departs from a tinsel belief that there are no victories to be gained because, the box-office must be appeased at all costs so far as commercial Indian cinema goes. Music in Indian cinema is unique in its' cultural implications because it spells out the Indian cult of cinema even when the songs or the background score are influenced, inspired and now, even plagiarized from Western, African and Arabic hits...that's piano-mania, mostly the hero or heroine playing it with unusually rich or low costumes, depending on the situation of the script. Songs and dances in popular Indian cinema are used as natural expressions of everyday emotions and situations. Music in Indian mainstream cinema defines a new synthesis of traditional and international genres of music. Each level involves such a synthesis that any one particular level cannot simply be reduced to another. A cinema song cannot be reduc ...moreAnswered by Dil Se, 12 Nov '11 06:09 pm
If we look into the history nt of last 6 -7 decades, then we would see a difference between the period of early seventies and post early seventies....till early seventies , Indian Society was seemed to be composed of 3 sections of people ....Upper Class, Middle Class and Lower class only.....each class , maintaining their respective characteristics n cud have been easily distinguishable too....Thanks , largely to the increasing development including significant development in communication ,which have taken place over the last four decades , which has already given birth to several sections in each of the earlier classes n all on a sudden , each of these classes are finding themselves in each other's race n nothing seems to be luxuries at all for any class of societies.....Answered by bijoy agarwala, 13 Nov '11 10:45 am

Starting with the pianist at the first public projection of movies by the Lumire Brothers on December 28, 1895 in Paris. From the beginning, music was recognized as essential, contributing to the atmosphere and giving the audience vital emotional cues. (Musicians sometimes played on film sets during shooting for similar reasons.) Small town and neighborhood movie theatres usually had a pianist. Beginning in the mid-1910s, large city theaters tended to have organists or ensembles of musicians. Massive theater organs were designed to fill a gap between a simple piano soloist and a larger orchestra. Theatre organs had a wide range of special effects; theatrical organs such as the famous "Mighty Wurlitzer" could simulate some orchestral sounds along with a number of percussion effects such as bass drums and cymbals and sound effects ranging from galloping horses to rolling thunder.Answered by Stone, 12 Nov '11 10:49 am

Scrum Methodology
Learn Scrum
The Scrum methodology of agile software development marks a dramatic departure from waterfall management. In fact, Scrum and other agile processes were inspired by its shortcomings. The Scrum methodology emphasizes communication and collaboration, functioning software, and the flexibility to adapt to emerging business realities — all attributes that suffer in the rigidly ordered waterfall paradigm.
Scrum Product Owner
Posted by admin under Scrum Basics
There are three fundamental roles in the Scrum method of agile software development: the Product Owner, the ScrumMaster, and the team. I'll begin by discussing the Product Owner because it is the most demanding of the roles.
In Scrum, the Product Owner is the one person responsible for a project's success. The Product Owner leads the development effort by conveying his or her vision to the team, outlining work in the scrum backlog, and prioritizing it based on business value. Of course, he or she must also consider the stakeholders (to make sure their interests are included in the release) and the team (to make sure the release is developed by the deadline and within budget). As such, the Product Owner must be available to the team to answer questions and deliver direction.
But this combination of authority and availability to the development team makes it hard for the Scrum Product Owner not to micro-manage. Scrum values self-organization and, as a result, the Product Owner must respect the team's ability to create its own plan of action. This means that a Product Owner is forbidden to give the team more work in the middle of the sprint. Even if requirements change or a rival organization unveils a new product that renders the team's work all for naught, the Scrum Product Owner is discouraged from altering the sprint until the next sprint planning meeting. However, the Product Owner may cancel a Sprint when necessary. One Product Owner I know cancels Sprints once or twice per year tops.
Furthermore, it is the Product Owner's responsibility to consider which activities will produce the most business value. This means making tough decisions—that the team might not appreciate—during sprint planning. However, the Product Owner is the one person who must face the music if the project crashes and burns. Therefore, he or she must aggressively determine which features of a product are most important, when they are developed, etc. Just as the development team must produce the negotiated work for the Product Owner, the Product Owner must deliver the product to the customer.
The responsibilities of the Product Owner are also described about halfway through this video module:

"In Scrum, the Product Owner is the one person responsible for a project's success."
Seriously? I think this is seriously overstated. There is no one person responsible for a project's success, regardless of whether you are doing waterfall or agile, scrum or XP.
There's no question that there must be a Product Owner. But "the one person"? No.

"Even if requirements change or a rival organization unveils a new product that renders the team's work all for naught, the Scrum Product Owner cannot alter the sprint until the next sprint planning meeting."
Really? So as a business owner expecting to see a benefit from adopting scrum, you're telling me that I need to invest in a whole bunch of work that will be thrown away simply to maintain the purity of the process?? Come on! I'll wager that if it is your dollars being wasted on your team doing pointless work, you'd soon adopt a more pragmatic view.
It's a good approach, and works well in my experience, but it's throwaway comments like this that immediately put the barriers up.

Can there be more than 1 product owner? If the product is complicated and the requirements challenging, can't there be a team of product owners?
ewok_bbq | January 19th, 2013 at 2:43 pm
Thanks Stella for the question. we can set up things in a number of ways. One way is to have 1 Product Owner (PO) per 1 Scrum Team working against 1 or more product backlogs. If you have multiple teams working against 1 or more backlogs then yes you will end up with multiple POs working together. This means that that there will indeed be a heirarchy to that group with a "uber-PO" at the top. Bas Vodde and Craig Larman write about it at great detail in their book here. The other way to do this is to have 1 PO across multiple teams but I haven't seen that work in practice very well so I wouldn't really recommend it.
Edward | May 11th, 2013 at 3:43 pm
The "whole bunch of work that will be thrown away" would be the work that you (or your PO) just told the team to do. In extreme situations, as the article states, the PO may cancel the sprint. But if this becomes frequent, perhaps your sprint length should be shortened, or practice better judgement on what you put into the sprint.

To transform an organization from water-fall to SCRUM, many have push their current project manager to be Scrum Master. In my opinion, a good water fall project manager are more qualified to be Scrum Product Owner. As Scrum Product Owner required good communication skill to manage stake holder, which they were already well trained to do so in water fall methodology. A Scrum Master is like a Coach in XP who needs to be Agile in his/her DNA to be successful. Otherwise it just produces water-scrum-fall.

Dieter Verhofstadt | December 11th, 2013 at 5:21 am
There are a couple of challenges for product ownership in a large organization, with multiple components being part of a big system. The scaling makes the job quite different from the usual set up of 1 team building a small system for an immediate group of stakeholders.
Uber-POs steering a group of POs (or a program manager, or you name it) is an offhand answer. If you dig deeper, the PO now has no longer access to all stakeholders and end-users, neither the full lot, nor immediate access. This introduces a first handover that is to be avoided by all agile dictums.
At the implementation side of the spectrum, the coordination of releases that needs to be done. In big systems the deployment chain, including functional testing across components, is usually owned by separate teams. This violates the idea of everything being embedded in the team and the PO owning the release planning.
Last but not least, big systems require an infrastructure that cannot be mimicked at each development environment. Usually the operational infrastructure is owned by yet another team (IT) than the devlopment team, resulting in more handovers, and more importantly a difference in set up and scale between the dev and ops environments, so that not all behavior and especially performance can by duly tested.
These issues of scaling agile are not dealt with in the theory books and often escape either the attention or the authority of a PO in big organizations. This may reduce the job of a PO to that of functional analyst, and we're back to waterfall.

In a week in which the news has been filled with a fiscal cliff, rockets, sex and security, a restaurant review also raised a ruckus.
Pete Wells, the Restaurant Critic of the New York Times, reviewed the new restaurant Guy Fieri <<Fee-air-rrr-ee>> has opened in Times Square with a string of rhetorical questions that began by asking Mr. Fieri if he's ever eaten at his own place.
"Were you struck by how very far from awesome the Awesome Pretzel Chicken Tenders are?" asks Mr. Wells …
"Did you try that blue drink, the one that glows like nuclear waste?"
Let me step in right here, the way a boxing ref might when a fighter on the ropes is about to be clubbed, to ask: did the critic order a blue drink just to make fun of it? Did he think the taste would be subtle and complex?
Margaret Sullivan, the Time's Public editor, called Pete Wells review, "a masterpiece of scorn… very mean and very funny and completely within the purview of the restaurant critic."
Guy Fieri hosts a Food Network show called Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives in which he drives a Chevy convertible across the country to gorge himself in a succession of genuine, no-star, family-favorite neighborhood spots. Pete Wells wondered if Mr. Fieri's new restaurant is some kind of barely-culinary scheme to cash in on the authenticity of others.
"Is it all an act?" he asks. "Is that why the kind of cooking you celebrate on television is treated with so little respect at Guy's American Kitchen & Bar?"
I've often enjoyed Pete Wells' writing. He's complained that so-called tasting menus can leave you feeling like you've been strapped to a table at a Coney Island eating contest, and wrote a beautiful column recently about low-end downtown restaurants closed during recent storms that could use business now.
But in these days when anyone can be a critic online, why is a New York Times critic reviewing the kind of place that people who read restaurant reviews probably wouldn't go to for a bowl of hot soup if it was the only spot open during Hurricane Sandy?
Does a New York Times Drama Critic review Macy's Santa Clauses just to observe, "They repeat the same tired old 'Ho-ho-ho's' with rote warmth"?
Why doesn't a critic hop the subway and find some unheralded spot in Queens or Staten Island that's worth the attention?
I asked Pete Wells: when you could tell that the food was so bad, why didn't you just leave?
"I'm struggling to come up with an interesting answer to your question," he quickly wrote back. "I get paid to eat bad food."

Facebook acquires ad tech firm LiveRail to improve video ads
Video ads are the next big thing for Facebook, something enforced by today's news of Facebook's acquisition of advertising tech company LiveRail. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
LiveRail, founded in 2007 and based in San Francisco, has worked with ABC, Major League Baseball, A&E Networks and Gannett to improve the quality of ads seen in videos.
Brian Boland, Facebook's Vice President of Ads Product Marketing, explained how LiveRail will help Facebook:
We believe that LiveRail, Facebook and the premium publishers it serves have an opportunity to make video ads better and more relevant for the hundreds of millions of people who watch digital video every month. More relevant ads will be more interesting and engaging to people watching online video, and more effective for marketers too. Publishers will benefit as well because more relevant ads will help them make the most out of every opportunity they have to show an ad.
We're just getting started with our partnership with LiveRail, but we're very excited about the future for video publishers and marketers. We believe that LiveRail's excellent product – known in the industry as a video supply-side platform or SSP – and Facebook's expertise with relevancy, delivery and measurement will help us make video advertising much better for everyone.

The General Services Administration has a treasure trove of special skills and knowledge not available elsewhere in the government. But in many ways, GSA has been treading water. After the upcoming presidential election, it will be time for the agency to position itself for the next decade.
GSA is not immune to broader societal changes, and it has reorganized and consolidated many times since Congress created it in 1949. Its workforce has declined 70 percent in 31 years — from 42,000 employees in 1980 to 12,600 in 2011 — and yet GSA still allows agencies to acquire the goods, services and office space they need quickly and at a good price.
However, the conditions that led to its formation 63 years ago are much different today. For example, there are few negotiated contracts in the government now. Ninety-five percent of contracting is simply order taking due to schedules and indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contracts.
As a result, the government as a whole might no longer need its army of 30,000 contract specialists and 3,000 purchasing agents and should consider reversing the balance between contract specialists and purchasing agents at all agencies.
And for all its changes, GSA's workforce is highly compartmentalized and too often frustrated and unhappy.
Those conditions suggest a series of questions GSA leaders should be addressing, including:
To respond to those challenges, GSA leaders should:
The government needs one organization to be an early adopter of the opportunities presented by the macro trends and transitions occurring in American society. With re-energized leadership after the election, GSA could set an example for the rest of government — and for other governments around the world.

Good article, Frank. Do you have a blog?
Frank's plan is now available in StratML format at http://xml.gov/stratml/drybridge/index.htm#FAM The vision of the the StratML standard is: "A worldwide web of intentions, stakeholders, and results." Its more explicit purposes are outlined at http://xml.gov/stratml/index.htm#DefinitionPurposes Consistent with sections 2 and 10 of GPRAMA, GSA should demonstrate leadership by example in crowdsourcing not only the drafting and publication of its strategic and performance plans and reports in StratML format but also the achievement of its objectives.
All valid concerns and challenges! Even though Mr. McDonough's article is focused on GSA, these are areas which all Federal agencies should be delving into to ensure their organizations and staffs are positioned to meet the Nation's support missions of today and the future. Given the tremendous challenges our Federal agencies are facing in the face of slashed budgets, loss of knowledge/skills through retirements and employee churn, and the steady growth of mission, Mr. McDonough's head-on approach might be very useful.
Mr. McDonough offers some sage advice to current and future GSA leadership. He posits objectives that could be reached any number of ways and ,I believe, therein lies the rub. While I believe there are some very capable leaders and managers at GSA, I don't think there are enough of them. To be an early adopter is to embrace uncertainty and risk with enthusiasm, knowing full-well that institutional deliberateness will stall most chances for success. There needs to be a very carefully crafted set of rules of goverance & discipline to guide leadership to quick and responsible decisions that focus on success and achievment. For example, a really good Contracting Officer can summarize the business and regulatory expectations of the FAR in one page; it is the page, not the 1,858 pages [small bound copy of FAR] that should be guiding leadership. And far fewer pages should be guiding the daily work of the staff.
What a great challenge to GSA and an insightful set of questions for GSA senior management. Where I'm disappointed is in the recommendations provided. Hire two "futurists"? Seriously? As you pointed out, there is significant expertise already in the agency and one problem is senior leadership isn't benefiting from that expertise. How about letting some of the "futurists" within GSA get attention for their trend analysis? And brainstorming teams by age? So capacity for innovation and/or awareness of new management methods and technology ends at, what, age 30, 33, 42...? Yes, GSA needs to do a better job of assuring the talents of younger professional staff are brought to the forefront but I'm not sure engaging in what amounts to age discrimination is the best recommendation. Overall, identification of GSA as an agency that can serve as a model for the government of the future that takes advantage of macro trends, especially technology, is fantastic! Thank you for understanding what a great agency GSA is, the quality of its staff and the value it provides, currently and in the future.

Creme de Menthe (green & white)
Creme de menthe is a sweet, mint-flavored alcoholic beverage. Herb liqueur made from natural essence of peppermint, sugar and alcohol. It come in two versions, green and white (clear). There is no noticeable flavor difference between the two. Both varieties and are interchangeable in recipes, except where the color is important. Green creme de Menthe obtains its color from the mint leaves or from the addition of coloring, if extract and not the leaves are used to make the liqueur. Crème de menthe is used as an ingredient in several cocktails and is also served as an after-dinner drink and can be used in food recipes as a flavoring. The traditional formula involves steeping dried peppermint leaves in grain alcohol for several weeks (creating a naturally green color), followed by filtration and the addition of sugar. A simple recipe is to mix the creme de menthe with ice cream which creates a mint like shake. Toppings are also sometimes used including nuts, or pecans.

Batista won Royal Rumble 2014 by eliminating Roman Reigns in the end. Other contestants during the match were Alberto Del Rio, Alexander Rusev, Antonio Cesaro, Big E Langston, CM Punk, Cody Rhodes, Damien Sandow, Dean Ambrose, Dolph Ziggler, El Torito, Erick Rowan, Fandango, Goldust, Great Khali, Jack Swagger, JBL, Jey Uso, Jimmy Uso, Kane, Kevin Nash, Kofi Kingston, Luke Harper, R Truth, Rey Mysterio, Ryback, Seth Rollins, Sheamus and the Miz.
Some fans are speculating that there is backstage heat on R Truth because of the way that he has been utilized by WWE over the last several months, but that is not the case. The company still views him as a valuable role player, but management simply is not interested in pushing him at the moment.
Vince McMahon took Eva Marie, Alicia Fox, R Truth and Big Show with him on an overseas trip to visit the troops. The WWE stars are now returning to the United States to spend some time with their families for the holidays.
Vince McMahon, Eva Marie, Big Show, Alicia Fox and R Truth are set to take a special trip overseas to visit with the troops. WWE has not yet revealed which country they are heading to, and it's likely they won't do so until the stars return home.
The current plan in WWE is to have Naomi and Cameron leaving Brodus Clay, who has now turned heel, and Tensai to join Xavier Woods and R Truth. The segment on Monday Night Raw this week was designed to further that story line.
Initially, the feud was designed to give the spotlight to newcomer Xavier Woods, but it now appears that WWE has shifted the attentiont to Brodus Clay and his impending heel turn instead. That's why they went with that segment on TLC last night.
After Tensai, Naomi and Cameron abandoned him during his match, Brodus Clay, who exhibited heel tendencies throughout the match at TLC, was defeated via pin fall by R Truth, who nailed his opponent with a kick to the face.
John Cena, Alberto Del Rio, Sheamus, Mark Henry, Big Show, Fandango, Great Khali, R Truth, Bella Twins, Summer Rae, Vince McMahon, Stephanie McMahon and Triple H were all in attendance at the Wrestlemania 31 press conference in Santa Clara.
The top candidates to work the kickoff match at the TLC pay per view right now are Xavier Woods, R Truth, Brodus Clay and Tensai. There's also a chance that WWE could opt to do a singles match between Woods and Clay as well.
While many fans are under the impression that it is a permanent thing, WWE might not be doing a permanent heel turn with Brodus Clay. The belief is that this is just to give Xavier Woods something to work with.
Xavier Woods has been called up to the main roster by WWE. He made his debut on Monday Night Raw as the new tag team partner of R Truth during a match against 3MB.
R Truth has revealed that he will be releasing a rap album and that John Cena has already recorded some tracks for him.
WWE developmental wrestler was known as Consequences Creed and teamed with R Truth when they were in TNA.
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.

Coronary artery bypass grafting-related bleeding and associated transfusion is a concern with dual antiplatelet therapy in patients with acute coronary syndromes. The objective of the present study was to characterize a potential risk-adjusted difference in transfusion requirements between prasugrel and clopidogrel cohorts.The data from 422 patients undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass grafting from the TRial to assess Improvement in Therapeutic Outcomes by optimizing platelet InhibitioN with prasugrel Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction 38 were analyzed retrospectively.We found no difference in baseline transfusion risk scores between cohorts. As predicted, the number of units of red blood cells transfused perioperatively correlated with the transfusion risk score (P < .0001). Overall, the 12-hour chest tube drainage volumes and platelet transfusion rates in the prasugrel cohort were significantly greater. However, no statistically significant differences were found in the number of red blood cell transfusions, total hemostatic components transfused, or total blood donor exposure. A significantly greater number of platelet units were transfused postoperatively in the prasugrel patients who underwent surgery within 5 days or less after withdrawal of drug. In an analysis adjusted for the predicted risk of mortality, total donor exposure was not associated with increased mortality.The use of prasugrel compared with clopidogrel was associated with greater 12-hour chest tube drainage volumes and platelet transfusion rates but without any significant differences in red blood cell transfusions, total hemostatic components transfused, or total blood donor exposure.

SÃO PAULO U.S. steelmakers should be wary of advanced negotiations for the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), particularly when certain issuessuch as those involving countries with state-owned enterprisesmay in turn hurt domestic players.
"Were seeking strong provisions in the TPP with regard to disciplines involving state-owned enterprises and currency," Thomas J. Gibson, president and chief executive officer of the American Iron and Steel Institute, told AMM on the sidelines of the World Steel Association annual conference in São Paulo.
"Were not TPP proponents, but were saying if youre going to have TPP, make sure you take care of these issues. We have to make sure there are remedies for state-owned enterprises if they act in non-market ways," Gibson said.
In 2009, President Obama announced the United States intention to participate in the TPP, which would create a trade partnership with 12 Asia-Pacific players, including Australia, Japan, Vietnam and Malaysia. After years of negotiations, the administration has said it aims to wrap up the trade pact by year-end.
Some steel advocates have called TPP the "gold standard" that will set the bar for future trade agreements, particularly those involving China, while others are hesitant to recognize its advantages.
In the meantime, the U.S. government is also in trade discussions with the European Union over another agreement. Gibson said, however, that since there are no tariffs on steel with regard to Europe and the United States, there is "arguably no effect to steel."
Trade has been an important topic for the U.S. industry this year, particularly after steelmakers filed a number of high-profile cases involving reinforcing bar as well as oil country tubular goods.
"The reason why youre seeing trade cases this year is because the surge of imports really occurred 18 months ago. Thats the nature of a trade caseyou have to build a case and its based on data thats always goingto lag," Gibson said. "Since 2010, weve seen a real spike in imports, and theyve remained at elevated levels through 2012-2013, including products like corrosion-resistant rebar, line pipe and hot-rolled bar."
Gibson added that while trade laws arent meant to "cut out" countries from the United States, the goal is to ensure that international rules are followed.
"Overcapacity in the world is still a concern to us," he said. "This is the most open market in the world and we couldnt close it even if we wanted to."

STATESBORO, Ga. — Michelle Fuzzard and Kandice Irwin combined to throw a one-hit shutout and Della Harrison hit a two run home run as the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga opened play in the Southern Conference softball tournament Wednesday with a 4-0 win over Furman.
The Lady Mocs (39-12) were held to five hits over three innings by Paladins starter Hannah Bradley, but UTC scored two runs in both the second and third innings to advance in the winners bracket of the double-elimination tournament.
Furman had earlier beating Western Carolina 5-4 in a play-in game to earn the chance to take on UTC.
Lauren Flores got UTC on the board in the second with an RBI single to score Harrison from second, and Flores scored the second run on a sacrifice fly by Fuzzard.
Harrison finished the game 2-for-2, and second baseman Sara Poteat went 2-for-4 in the win.
In the third, catcher Vivian Morimoto walked and scored when Harrison hit a 2-2 pitch over the fence in left center field to give the Lady Mocs some breathing room.
Furman stranded two runners in the bottom of the seventh when Morgan Hughey and Katie Michaels reached on errors by Poteat and shortstop Jessica Traxler, but they were stranded when Irwin struck out designated player Alex Bimonte to end the game.
Fuzzard started and allowed only a leadoff single by Furman's Nikki Legg in the fourth inning. Irwin allowed no hits or walks over the final two innings to wrap up the win.
Sophomore first baseman Kasey Tydingco, who had been nursing a sore shoulder, started the game, but was hitless in three at bats.
Top-seeded UTC will be back in action at 3 this afternoon against No. 5 seed Elon, the defending tournament champion, which beat College of Charleston 7-5 on Wednesday.
In other tournament games Wednesday, No. 7 seed Samford upset Appalachian State 6-3, and UNC Greensboro defeated tournament host Georgia Southern 2-0 in the final game of the day.

St. Joseph, Mich. One St. Joseph Public Safety Officer has been fired and another suspended on the heels of an internal conduct investigation.
St. Joseph's Director of Public Safety, Mark Clapp, has been suspended for one week without pay and the Deputy Director, Al DiBrito, has been terminated.
The disciplinary actions came down Tuesday after an internal investigation into a complaint of defamatory comments made by Clapp in regards to his second in command, DiBrito.
"The investigation concluded that Director Clapp made comments that were inappropriate for a commanding officer to make regarding a second charge," said Richard Lewis, St. Joseph City Manager, in a press conference Tuesday morning.
The comments were deemed inappropriate, but not defamatory. Clapp has been disciplined with a one week unpaid suspension, beginning May 12.
But the investigation brought to light other complaints within the department – complaints about DiBrito's own conduct.
"Multiple Public Safety Officers voiced serious concerns regarding the overall conduct of the Deputy Public Service Director Al DiBrito," Lewis said in a statement. "A determination was made that the future effective operation of the Public Safety Department would be jeopardized if Mr. DiBrito remained as the Deputy Director of the Department."
DiBrito's employment was terminated effective immediately Tuesday morning. Lewis did not accept questions on the conduct specifically.
DiBrito's attorneys addressed the "serious concerns" about DiBrito's "overall conduct" with the following statement:
"DiBrito has always acted with the highest attention to the law and ethical law enforcement standards throughout his career. That career includes 10 years as a city police officer, 23 years as a Special Agent of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and two years in his current position as Deputy Director of Public Safety. He has received numerous awards and commendations over those years, reflecting his successful performance. DiBrito is considering his personal, career and legal options at this point. DiBrito will make no further comment at this time."

The imposition of a no-fly zone in 1991 against the regime of Saddam Hussein worked wonders for Iraqi Kurdistan. Twenty years later, a no-fly zone in Libya led to resolution of the conflict there. Why shouldn't it also be tried in northern Syria? A commentary by Silke MertinsMore
Seyed Hossein Mousavian, spokesman for the former nuclear negotiator Hassan Rowhani and once the Iranian ambassador to Germany, sees a realistic chance for a resolution of the nuclear crisis despite the escalation of the conflict. Direct talks with the USA are both possible and necessary, says the former diplomat. An interview by Silke MertinsMore

Every year, groups of Shia men parade through the centre of Nabatiyeh, where Lebanon's major Ashura rituals take place. These rituals include the controversial bloodletting rite known as "tatbir". Although frowned upon by religious and political authorities, Shia communities still practice tatbir as a vital part of their communal act of mourning Imam Hussein, who was martyred at the pivotal Battle of Karbala in 680 AD.
