Pats grapplers race to big leadBy Carleton Laird
CORRESPONDENT | March 01,2014BENNINGTON Somethings are a foregone conclusion when the Vermont State Wrestling Championships get under way. The first is that Mount Anthony will probably be at the top of the team scores.
Such is the case after Day 1 at Mount Anthony Union High School Friday as the Patriots advanced all 14 wrestlers to the semifinals and hold a comfortable 134-64 lead over Bellow Falls/Hartford.
Mount Mansfield is third with 53 points, Mill River fourth with 50.5 and Vergennes fifth with 48.
There is a battle for second place but Bellows Fall/Hartford has the edge with seven wrestlers through to the semis, while Mount Mansfield has six.
The Patriots have nine wrestlers with 50-plus wins for the season, including three that are undefeated.
Heavyweight Jesse Webb is now 59-0 after his two pins and will face BFHs John Harris in the semis.
Austin Price won twice on falls at 182 and improved to 57-0. He will take on Ian Kendzior of Milton in his semifinal.
Troy Gassaway moved to 57-0 with a pin at 120 and Otter Valleys Tyson Cram is his next opponent.
Calvin Call (50-8 at 106 pounds), Tyler Raetz (51-8, 113), Dylan LaFountain (54-5, 132), Damon Young (55-5, 170), Tyler Mattison (54-3, 195) and Jack Luciano (54-6, 220) have all eclipsed the 50-win mark and have their eyes on individual state titles.
Zach Allen of Mill River is the top seed at 138 and won a pair of matches. He pinned David Howes of Harwood at 1:08 and then won a technical decision (a win by 15 points or more), 18-2 over Vergennes Jeb Hodsen. He will face Mount Anthonys Bailey Willard next.
In other semis, Burr and Burtons Caleb Giles will meet Call in the 106 class. Austin Viens of BFH faces Ethan Reardon at 113, while Quinn Kimball of Mill River will take on Ben Bliss of Mount Mansfield.
Mount Anthonys Tabor Watson and BFHs Brendon Kendall will clash at 126. Steve Cerone of Bellows Falls/Hartford, picked up his 100th career win en route to the 138 semifinals, where he will meet John Stawinski of Essex.
Alex Legg of CVU also joined the 100-win club in advancing at 132.
BFHs Nola Viens is into the 145 semis against Duncan Lord of Spaulding, while teammate Patrick Lubuda, who also garnered his 100th, will face Dylan Shattuck of St. J at 152. MAUs Noble Shaler and Middleburys James Mason are on the other side of that draw.
Izaak Young of Mill River advanced at 160 when Connor Gobeille of CVU withdrew with an injury. Rutlands Corey Black moved to the quarters on an injury withdrawal and then decisioned BFHs Brady Illingworth 8-4.
Young will meet top seed Keegan Pearsell of Vergennes while Black faces MAUs Jacob Woodside.
Young will tangle with Rutlands Charles Whithmore at 170, while Kyle Record of BFH will wrestle Jakob Trautwein of Middlebury at 182.
In the 195 category, Mattison takes on Mill Rivers Gage Stearns in the top half of the draw while second seed Aaron Borkowski of Rutland meets Kienan Kittredge of CVU.
Otter Valleys Adam Sherwin is through at 220 and will take on Chris Gobbi of Middlebury.
Action will get under way at 9:30 a.m. with consolation quarterfinals and the finals will start at 6:30 p.m.

- Release date:7 July 2006 (USA)
- Genre:
- Summary:Psych is a quick-witted comedy/drama starring James Roday as young police consultant Shawn Spencer who solves crimes with powers of observation so acute that Santa Barbara PD detectives think he's psychic. Psych also stars Dule Hill as Shawn's best friend and reluctant sidekick, Gus, and Corbin Bernsen as his disapproving father, Henry, who ironically was the one who honed his son's "observation" skills as a child. Also featured are Timothy Omundson, Maggie Lawson and Kirsten Nelson. Using his charm and well-tuned talent, Shawn convinces the cops that he's actually a psychic, and although highly skeptical of his explanation, they hire him to help solve tough cases. With the reluctant assistance of his best friend Gus, Shawn uses his skills of observation and charismatic personality to become the detective he was trained to be, opening his own PI agency - Psych - and solving cases for an ever-suspicious, but grudgingly impressed, police force.

I'm pretty sure season 8 will be the last. The show isn't getting any better and the ratings dropped significantly after season 5. Season 8 will be only 10 episodes instead of 16 as previous season, that's probably a sign that the show will end and they just make a few episodes to wrap it up.1 years ago

James Castle and Walker Evansby Ben La Rocco
word play, signs and symbols
Knoedler and Company
May 4–August 11, 2006
In an exhibition entitled word play, signs and symbols, Knoedler and Company has insightfully paired collages and drawings by James Castle with a selection of Walker Evans' late SX 70 Polaroids. Both artists found a way to flourish in isolation. As a deaf mute who never learned to read, write, or sign, Castle (1900-1977) was an outsider who, for all intents and purposes, possessed only the language that he made up. His parents were postmasters in rural Idaho, where their home also served as the general store. He transformed the detritus of commercial advertising and post office supplies into collages and made drawings from his own brew of soot and spit. Tracing letters and numbers and collecting them in tables like so many strange butterflies captured and preserved for further study, Evans worked from what was at hand to recreate language after his own intuition. Late in his life, financial struggles and divorce had placed Evans (1903-1975) in an isolated situation. Like Castle, he was alone and relied on the charity of friends and students for support. It was at this point that he took up the Polaroid SX-70. Its quick results, intense colors, and milky resolution were a perfect fit.
"It's easy to imagine that (Jasper) Johns would approve," Stephen Westfall writes in the catalogue essay of one tiny collage by Castle of a shirt folded out of a magazine advertisement with the aid of charcoal and a bit of string. Here, Westfall identifies a dilemma central to Castle's work. Its formal sophistication belies an uncanny eye—uneducated to be sure—but very much attuned to meaning in the visual world. With that in mind, how useful is the definition of "outsider" with which Castle is often labeled? Should he not instead be seen in tandem with, as well as in opposition to the seminal figures in Pop art? Castle offers a very different outlook on the American subjects so dear to these artists, one comparatively devoid of irony. Johns and particularly Rauschenberg share with Castle a passion for the latent poetry present in the most common objects and images. Through association with superficiality and decay Warhol and Koons take a different path.
Evans' images, like Castle's, are full of affection for their subjects. The minute scale of the work contributes to this as does the particular resolution of the SX-70. "Sankey's Ice Cream, Taunton, Massachusetts" shows the tall milk bottle shape of Sankey's store against dark trees at dusk. Its ghostly form hovers between earth and sky, anchored by foreground power lines in an elegant composition. The nostalgia that suffuses this piece and all of Evan's Polaroids is entirely benevolent. There is a whimsy and a genuine sort of innocence (the kind to which Warhol could only pretend) that seems to be a holdover from Evans' formative, depression-era days. It is almost painfully American.
Considering Evans and Castle on an equal footing with other Pop artists draws attention to the deeper roots of our culture's attitude toward the artifacts it generates. If our attitude toward these objects might be benevolent and their effects on us ameliorative, then we must instead scrutinize our own feelings toward our surroundings for the locus of unease to which Evans and Castle attune us.

Walker Evans: The Magazine Workby Adam Bell

Once upon an avant-garde time, three poet-artists collaborated on a one-of-a-kind artists book of 33 photomontages done in the spirit of the cadavre exquis. Together they discovered a completely new yet universal language of sexual symbols, radical juxtapositions, the sublime, and the grotesque.
WILLEM VAN GENK Mind Trafficby Alana Shilling-Janoff
OCT 2014 | ArtSeen
Willem van Genk: Mind Traffic, the American Folk Art Museums current exhibition of 43 works by the Dutch artist, which range from large-scale paintings and collages, to an installation of the artists prized raincoats, is an historical victory, a correction of a curious oversight in the art historical annals of U.S. institutions.

This airbag inflates between the driver's knees and the instrument panel to help provide protection in a crash. The second- and third-row seats have side-curtain airbag protection. They feature roll-fold technology, which is designed to inflate between the window glass and passenger's head. This helps keep the curtain against the glass and offers head protection in side impacts for all outboard seating positions. In fact, when combined with the front-seat side airbags, the side-curtain airbags help provide protection for both head and chest in certain side-impact collisions. Sidecurtain airbags will not interfere with a properly installed child-safety seat or booster seat.

Magyar Bancorp, Inc. Announces Fourth Quarter And Year End Financial Results
Dec. 9, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Magyar Bancorp (NASDAQ: MGYR) ("Company"), parent company of Magyar Bank, reported today the results of its operations for the three months and year ended
September 30, 2011.
The Company reported a net loss of $36,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to net income of $107,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2010. The Company reported a net loss for the year ended September 30, 2011 of $249,000, compared to net income of $3.9 million for the year ended September 30, 2010. The loss per share was $0.01 and $0.04 for the three and twelve months ended September 30, 2011, compared with basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months and twelve months ended September 30, 2010 of $0.02 and $0.68, respectively.
John Fitzgerald, President and Chief Executive Officer commented that "During the fiscal year, we continued to reposition our balance sheet and reduce our risk within the portfolio. Our level of non-performing assets increased during the quarter, and while we expect this level to remain higher than normal in fiscal year 2012, we continue to see strong interest in properties being foreclosed upon or currently held by the Bank and have several properties under contract which we anticipate will close in the coming quarters. In fact, during the first quarter of fiscal year 2012, the Bank completed the sale of two properties previously held as other real estate owned. The carrying value of these properties was $3.2 million at September 30, 2011, and we expect positive trends to continue during fiscal year 2012."

For the last 15 years, a "green card" allowed Dr. Khaver Kirmani to help improve the health and well-being of hundreds of babies born prematurely in America.
On Friday, Kirmani was among 104 people representing 35 countries who waved American flags as they upgraded their citizenship status from green card, or permanent resident, to U.S. citizen during one of two oath of allegiance ceremonies at the Sandra Day O'Connor U.S. Courthouse in downtown Phoenix.
Many described it as a happy and important day as they spoke to the crowd before being granted their citizenship status by Judge Roger Strand. Many who took the oath said they believed in "doing the right thing" to become U.S. citizens and that they support Arizona's new immigration law that requires police officers to arrest those they believe are in the U.S. illegally.
Others said they paid the $595 naturalization application fee for citizenship papers to avoid any future problems while traveling throughout the U.S., a process now averaging five to nine months after possessing a green card for three to five years.
Overall, about 200 people are naturalized, achieving citizenship status during two ceremonies each Friday at the federal courthouse.
Kirmani, 39, of Gilbert, who immigrated to the U.S. from Pakistan in 1995 for job and education opportunities, became a naturalized citizen. He began his medical training in upstate New York and now mostly works at Banner Cardon's Children's Medical Center in Mesa. After initially having a work visa, Kirmani received a green card in 2005 and applied for his citizenship about nine months ago.
"This is probably one of the most important days in my life," Kirmani said. "It's been such a long time, but I'm really happy. This just shows if you work hard, you get credit here. I think people need to be here legally. One bad thing done by an immigrant reflects on all of us."
Others becoming naturalized citizens included veteran Major League baseball pitcher Valerio De Losantos, 34, of Scottsdale, who immigrated to the U.S. from the Dominican Republic soon after scouts for the Milwaukee Brewers discovered him at age 17; Arizona Army National Guard Spc. E-4 Susanti Ortiz from Indonesia; and Ewa Kogut from Poland who lives with her husband, Sylvester, in Gilbert.
"I appreciate the opportunities this country gives to me, and I would like to give back to the community," said De Losantos, who currently is a free agent and plans to get signed by a team after the All-Star break. "Now, I feel I can work anywhere without any immigration problems."
Retired Iranian judge Kazem Madjiei, 81, of Scottsdale, who once served under Shah Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi in Tehran for 32 years, and Madjiei's wife, Mali, also became naturalized citizens during the ceremony.
Kazem Madjiei's son-in-law, Mosan Nassirian, who was pushing him in a wheelchair, said the family does not like the new immigration law, but the elderly couple who has lived in the U.S. for 12 years, felt it was necessary to receive citizenship papers to avoid any problems.
"It's discrimination," Nassirian said of Senate Bill 1070.
However, the Madjieises said they were happy and relieved to become naturalized citizens.
"I feel it is very important for me," Kazem Madjiei said.
Ewa and Sylvester Kogut, who gave birth to a daughter on Monday, said it was quicker for Ewa to be granted citizenship status since Sylvester already was a U.S. citizen.
"It's nice to see so many people do this legally," Sylvester Kogut said. "The law should have been in place sooner. It would've prevented a lot of the problems we have now and been less work for the government."
From last October through March, 316,000 people filed applications for citizenship status through the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services in Washington, D.C.
There has not been an increase in applications for U.S. citizenship since Senate Bill 1070 was signed into law by Gov. Jan Brewer on April 23, according to Marie Sebrecht, a United States Citizenship and Immigration Services spokeswoman. Last year, for the entire fiscal year from Oct. 1 through Sept. 30, 2009, 741,900 people filed applications to become citizens, and over 1 million people filed applications in 2008, Sebrecht said.
Julia Gowan, an officer for U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services who was overseeing Friday's ceremony in Phoenix, told the new U.S. citizens, "Make yourself be heard. Make a difference."
"To make our democracy strong," she said, "we must have active participation by all of its citizens."

Will I need expert witnesses for my pipeline accident case?
Written by attorney Michael Shelton
Will I need expert witnesses for my pipeline accident case?
I have so much debt on my name and I make less than $600 a month. This family sue me for nearly $150,000 for the car crash accident and they want to send me to court on August. As my life is right now, I may file for bankruptcy because of everything I owe. Should I do it now before my August court with them, or should I do it after? Either way, I simply cannot make it. Will the court understand my situation? That family went to the restaurant I work at and they looked fine. They have an even bigger and better car and according to what he is suing me for, his right wrist surgery, he was doing everything with his right hand. I even have witnesses and a video recording. What should I do? I want to get a lawyer, but I don't even have money to pay him/her. What are my options?
If you go to court yourself you will probably accomplish very little; the judge might have sympathy for you but your financial situation will play no role in the ultimate result of the personal injury case. You might end up with a large judgment against you and the only way you will be able to escape it is to declare bankruptcy.
Your best option is to gather up some cash and pay a local lawyer now, to review the facts of your case and figure out the best way to contain the problem. It may mean you settle before the case goes any further, and pay them over time. Another option is to declare bankruptcy immediately, which will put the lawsuit against you on hold.
I am assuming that you didn't have any auto coverage yourself, because if you did you would already have let your insurer handle this for you. In regard to your bankruptcy question, you should contact a bankruptcy attorney. There are many in California listed on this web site. You may have no choice but to pay an attorney to help you if you did not have insurance or it was inadequate.
Consult a local B/K attorney ASAP & try to retain a local personal injury defense attorney - too difficult to handle yourself
It is best to consult a San Diego lawyer to assist you further with this. Most avvo lawyers offer free consultation. Good luck
If you have car insurance, your insurance company should handle the claim and provide an attorney for your case. If not, you should speak to a local attorney about your options. Most of them will offer free consultations.
I am licensed to practice law in VA, not your state. As such, I may be unaware of certain state laws; therefore, my response may be wrong or irrelevant. Please use my response for informational purposes only and contact a local attorney for legal advice.
Good luck.
Be sure to mark the "Best Answer" or Helpful" to your questions. Attorneys on AVVO donate their time and your feedback is appreciated.

If you have insurance they should handle this claim for you. You insurance should hire a defense atty for you. Hiring your own defense attorney will cost a lot of money.
However if you do not have insurance or money, you should file bankruptcy. Contact a local bankruptcy attorney for advice.
I was told by my bankruptcy attorney friend that when defendant filing bankruptcy, it would affect the case. It would create an automatic stay and plaintiff (Plf.) can't do move forward with the case against defendant. But that's just the general answer. What chapter are you filing? 7? 13? If the judgement before the defendant filing bk, it is worse for plf. because it arises from a debt prior to the BK so it would be dischargeable. Plf. can always sue in bk on a non discharge-ability debts. Plf. should always file proof of claim for the judgment. This is a general answer, you should contact a bankruptcy attorney for better advice!!! Good-luck!!!
Did you have auto insurance? If you have insurance your carrier will provide you with a defense and will pay the damages up to your limit. If you have low limits the carrier should try to settle the claim for you within the limits so that you are not "exposed" to a judgment higher than those limits.
I do not practice in California so I do not know how your motor vehicle financial responsibility laws work. But here in Pennsylvania, if I learned that the defendant had little or no insurance, I typically would advise my clients that there is no practical sense to pursuing a claim beyond the insurance limits if the person did not have assets to pay any excess judgment. If my clients had underinsurance coverage on their own policy, I would make a claim there.
If you do not have insurance, you should seek the advice of an attorney from your state who can explain your rights. This should not be that expensive and at least you will know where you stand. You have a lot of uncertainty and even if you have few options at least you will know what they are and you can better make decisions on what to do next. Good Luck.
Contact one of the above lawyers in your state to investigate
As an injury trial attorney myself, I would not spend the $15-20K in trial costs to get a judgment against someone who does not have the ability to pay it. Thus, one option would be to wait and see if the plaintiff drops the case against you. However, if you had car insurance or if you were working at the time of the accident, the plaintiff may be filing the lawsuit in hopes of getting recovery from your insurance or your employer. In any case you should immediately, talk with a bankruptcy attorney who can plan your bankruptcy strategy to see if you can file now or wait. Good Luck!!
If you suffer a personal injury as the result of the actions or negligence of another, you may seek financial compensation for physical or emotional damages.

What is horse chestnut?
Horse chestnut is an herbal remedy made from an extract of the seeds, bark, and leaves of the horse chestnut tree. For centuries it was used to treat various medical conditions, including varicose veins, poor circulation, stomach ulcers, and hemorrhoids. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) does not recommend using horse chestnut for hemorrhoids, and studies have not proven its effectiveness in treating stomach ulcers.
Potential health benefits
Some medical research suggests that when taken by mouth, horse chestnut extract may be as effective as support stockings in reducing the leg swelling that goes along with poor circulation. It may take up to 12 weeks to see results with horse chestnut therapy, compared with four weeks for treatment with support stockings. Some people claim that horse chestnut therapy can improve the appearance of varicose veins, but it's not clear how well it really works.
Drug forms
Horse chestnut comes in capsules, gels, lotions, and ointments. For capsules, the usual dose is one 257-mg capsule containing 18 to 22% aescin, the active ingredient is aescin, but the dose varies widely. You take capsules with morning and evening meals. Be sure to follow directions on package labeling when using these products.
Potential side effects
Never eat unprocessed horse chestnuts taken from the tree, because they can cause nausea,
vomiting, muscle twitching and weakness, and dilated pupils. With proper processing to remove
the natural toxins, horse chestnut is relatively safe. Horse chestnut is generally well
tolerated. The most common side effect is stomach upset. Rarely, allergic reactions may occur
such as itching, runny nose, or even respiratory. There are reports of liver and kidney
problems with use of horse chestnut.
People with bleeding disorders should not use horse chestnut products. Horse chestnut products contain chemicals that may thin the blood, and can raise the risk of bleeding. Horse chestnut can be very toxic, especially for children. Use caution, and always talk to your doctor before using herbs or alternative medicines.
Drug Interactions
Horse chestnut may potentially interact with blood thinners because horse chestnut contains
chemicals that may thin the blood. Due to this interaction, do not use horse chestnut it if you
take aspirin, warfarin (Coumadin�), ticlopidine (Ticlid�) or clopidogrel (Plavix�). Combining
horse chestnut with these drugs may increase the risk of bleeding. Horse chestnut should also
not be taken with anitdiabetic agents and diuretics.
Shop for horse chestnut products available on Walgreens.com.

Hawthorn Bancshares Announces Earnings
Hawthorn Bancshares Inc. (NASDAQ: HWBK), today reported consolidated financial results for the Company, including its main operating subsidiary, Hawthorn Bank, for the third quarter ended September 30.
Net income for the quarter was $1.5 million, compared to $1.4 million for the third quarter of 2010. Hawthorn earned $0.22 per diluted common share for the three months ended September 30, 2011, versus $0.20 for the third quarter of 2010 after deducting accrued dividends and accretion of $0.5 million on preferred stock issued to the U.S. Treasury under the Capital Purchase Program.
On a year to date basis, Hawthorn Bancshares generated net income of $3.9 million, up from $2.7 million for 2010. After deducting accrued dividends and accretion on preferred stock issued to the U.S. Treasury, income available to common shareholders was $2.4 million compared to $1.2 million for 2010. From a diluted earnings per common share basis, Hawthorn generated $0.51 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to $0.26 per common share for the same period in 2010.
Operating ResultsNet Interest Income Due to increasing the Company's net interest margin from 3.81% for the third quarter of 2010 to 3.98% for the same period in 2011, net interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 remained stable at $10.8 million despite a lower volume of earning assets. The higher net interest margin is primarily the result of the decrease in rates paid on interest bearing liabilities outpacing the decrease in rates earned on interest bearing assets. Non-Interest Income and Expense Non-interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2011 was $2.4 million compared to $2.9 million for the same period in 2010. The decrease is primarily the result of a $0.6 million decrease in the gains on sales of mortgage loans due to higher real estate refinancing activity experienced during the third quarter of 2010 as compared to 2011. Non-interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2011 was $8.9 million compared to $9.4 million for third quarter 2010. The decrease is largely attributed to a $0.4 million decrease in expenses and impairment charges related to foreclosed assets.

Colonoscopy and polyps
Common Questions and Answers about Colonoscopy and polyps
Small polyps can be missed in the first
. Also, it depends on whether you've been eating healthy (red meat
low vitamin D speed the growth). Finally, you might ask your doctor to do a genetic testing if they keep growing in large numbers. You also didn't mention where the polyps were found. Sigmoid colon polyps are more likely associated with nutrition status, whereas ascending colon polyps are more likely to be genetic. Take care & good luck!

The good thing about colonic polyps is that they're very slow growing and they take a long time to turn cancerous, if indeed they are malignant. Most
are benign. I'm very glad that your

As i am only 22 what are the cahnces that when they do the full colonoscopy which is in 3 days now that there weill be more? If there are anymore do you think in this case there is potential that i may need surgery again?

I just completed my 5-year colonoscopy due to (1) my 3mm epithelial hyperplasic polyp of 5 years ago
, (2) my mother's previous GI
. However, the prep was bad, so the doctor only was able to examine only 75% of the colon but did get to the end of the colon. He said - no large polyps were found, no cancers; but that I need to come back in 1 year so he can check the entire colon for small polyps, etc. Question: Is it a good (unhealthy) idea to wait 1-year before checking again?

I had a

I have been having some cramping
associated pain
they suspect IBS or Colitis. I am 49

The inflammation in the peri-appendiceal area is often referred to as a cecal patch and typically is asymptomatic and does not warrant additional treatment. The reason to have a surveillance
periodically is to check for
dysplasia which is the earliest sign of cancer. Random colon biopsies are obtained to check for dysplasia. I hope this helps.

I had my first

1 precancerous polyp was removed. Dr. called week later saying two polyps okay; howver, other larger one was precancerous. He has to schedule another colonoscopy @ 6 weeks from now because he wants to make sure he got the entire polyp. Biopsy criteria showed that he may not have gone deep enough. The remaining tissue/polyp, is that precancerous since it is part of polyp removed? I am @ 65, female}. Very upset.

Had the

They were ok (benign) They were located in exactly the area I was having the discomfort. I am still experiencing some discomfort in one of the spots. I was curious if anyone out there who has had polyps removed had any tenderness or discomfort when they had polyps removed. I know they remove cut(for no better term)them out and there is some bleeding.

I would recommend talking to your doctor/a gastroenterologist to decide if you should get a

Then after a month, I end up going to the ER with nausea/bleeding/anemia
then GI tells me that indeed
can be done without sedation
that they do them unsedated when required. The problem is that the same doctor that told me that sedation is absolutely reuired a month ago is now telling me that it really isn't required. This would be fine, but now I don't trust her, especially when the procedural consent includes a consent for sedation.

tion, and this within-organization collaboration decreases the diffusion of discoveries to other scientists. Incumbent firms are slow to develop ties with the discovering university stars, leading some stars to found new biotechnology firms to commercialize their discoveries. Star bioscientists centrally determined when and where NBEs began to use biotechnology commercially and which NBEs were most successful. Stars that span the university-NBE boundary both contribute significantly to the performance of the NBE and also gain significantly in citations to their own scientific work done in collaboration with NBE scientists. Nations differentially gain or lose stars during the basic science- and industry-building period, indicating the competitive success of different national infrastructures supporting development of both the basic science and its commercial applications.
There are great differences in the probability that any particular individual scientist will produce an innovation that offers significant benefits, sufficient possibly to outweigh the costs of implementing it. We know that a wide range of action differs between great scientists—including our stars—and ordinary scientists, from mentoring fewer and brighter students to much higher levels of personal productivity as measured by number of articles published, number of citations to those articles, and number of patents (5, 7, 8).
As shown in Table 1, among the 207 stars who have ever published in the United States, we observe higher average annual citation rates to genetic-sequence-reporting articles, a scientific productivity measure, for stars with greater commercial involvement: most involved are those ever listing a NBE as one's affiliation ("affiliated stars"), next are those ever coauthoring with one or more scientists then listing a local NBE as their affiliation ("local linked stars"), and then those listing only such coauthorship with NBE scientists outside their local area ("other linked stars" who are less likely to be working directly in the lab with the NBE scientists).d We distinguish local from other on the basis of the 183 functional economic areas making up the United States (called BEA areas). In addition, being listed as discoverer on a genetic sequence patent implies greater commercial involvement. For the U.S. as a whole, stars affiliated with firms and with patented discoveries are cited over 9 times as frequently as their pure academic peers with no patents or commercial ties. The differences in total citations reflects both differences in the quantity of articles and their quality as measured by citation rate, where quality accounts for most of the variation in total citations across these groups of scientists.
Why Intellectual Human Capital? In most economic treatments, the information in a discovery is a public good freely available to those who incur the costs of seeking it out, and thus scientific discoveries have only fleeting value unless formal intellectual-property-rights mechanisms effectively prevent use of the information by unlicensed parties—i.e., absent patents, trade secrets, or actual secrecy—the value of a discovery erodes quickly as the information diffuses.
We have a different view. Scientific discoveries vary in the degree to which others can be excluded from making use of them. Inherent in the discovery itself is the degree of "natural excludability": if the techniques for replication involve much tacit knowledge and complexity and are not widely known prior to the discovery—as with the 1973 Cohen-Boyer discovery (9) —then any scientist wishing to build on the new knowledge must first acquire hands-on experience.

The values are the total number of citations in the Science Citation Index for the 3 years 1982, 1987, and 1992 for all genetic-sequence discovery articles (up to April 1990) in GenBank (release 65.0, Sept. 1990) authored or coauthored by each of the stars in the cell divided by 3 (years) times the number of stars in the cell.
*All stars ever affiliated with a U.S. NBE.

discoveries with such a high degree of natural excludability, so that the knowledge must be viewed as embodied in particular scientists' "intellectual human capital," will yield supranormal labor income for scientists who embody the knowledge until the discovery has sufficiently diffused to eliminate the quasi-rents in excess of the normal returns on the cost of acquiring the knowledge as a routine part of a scientist's human capital.e
Thus, we argue that the geographic distribution of a new science-based industry can importantly derive from the geographic distribution of the intellectual human capital embodying the breakthrough discovery upon which it is based. This occurs when the discovery—especially an "invention of a method of discovery" (10) —is sufficiently costly to transfer due to its complexity or tacitness (11–15) so that the information can effectively be used only by employing those scientists in whom it is embodied.
Scientific Collaborations. Except for initial discoverers, the techniques of recombinant DNA were generally learned by working in laboratories where they were used, and thus diffusion proceeded slowly, with only about a quarter of the 207 U.S. stars and less than an eighth of the 4004 U.S. collaborators in our sample ever publishing any genetic-sequence discoveries by the end of 1979. In a variety of other disciplines, scientists use institutional structure and organizational boundaries to generate sufficient trust among participants in a collaboration to permit sharing of ideas, models, data, and material of substantial scientific and/or commercial value with the expectation that any use by others will be fairly acknowledged and compensated to the contributing scientists (16).
Zucker et al (1) relate the collaboration network structure in biotechnology to the value of the information in the underlying research project: the more valuable the information, the more likely the collaboration is confined to a single organization. As expected, diffusion slows as the share of within-organization collaborations increases, so organizational boundaries do operate to protect valuable information effectively. In work underway, we get similar results in Japan: the value of information being produced increases the probability that collaborators come from the same organization.
Related results, reported under "Star Scientist Success and Ties to NBEs" below, demonstrate that these differences reflect primarily increased quality of work (measured by citations per article) while the star is affiliated or linked to a NBE.
In the limit, where the discovery can be easily incorporated into the human capital of any competent scientist, the discoverer(s) cannot earn any personal returns—as opposed to returns to intellectual property such as patents or trade secrets. In the case of biotechnology, it may be empirically difficult to separate intellectual capital from the conceptually distinct value of cell cultures created and controlled by a scientist who used his or her nonpublic information to create the cell culture.

A great shot :)
Thank you kindly Julie xx

Too funny. Is that Death by Chocolate? Nice shot.
Probably!…..the two gentlemen having delicate cups of tea were just too much! they both had really long beards but weren't that old….wish you could see them but I always blur people to respect their privacy.

Super capture.
Cool shot. I thought cake could be deadly.
Death by Chocolate….Yum!!!
I love how you have blurred out the people Ingz…it gives this image an almost ghostly appearance….I love it!!!!
Wonderful street scene Ingz! I'll have coffee and cake please :-)
oh, cake for me, please! looks like you might have grabbed this from a car window as you passed? quick work!!
