Incyte Reports 2012 Second-Quarter Financial Results; Updates Shareholders On Launch Of Jakafi And Lead Clinical Programs
2012 Net Product Revenue Guidance
The Company anticipates that revenues from Jakafi net product sales will be in the range of $120 million to $135 million in 2012. This net product revenue guidance assumes the Company adopts the sell-in method for revenue recognition in the third or fourth quarter of 2012. Therefore, this guidance includes the recognition of net product deferred revenue as of the time of adoption of the sell-in method. As of June 30, 2012, net product deferred revenue was $9.0 million.
* Under the sell-through method, revenue is recognized when the specialty pharmacy sends product to the patient whereas under the sell-in method, revenue is recognized when product is received by the specialty pharmacy.
2012 Second-Quarter Financial ResultsProduct Revenues For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company shipped $35.1 million and $60.3 million, respectively, of Jakafi to its specialty pharmacies. The Company currently uses the sell-through method for product revenue recognition, which means revenue from shipments to specialty pharmacies is deferred until the specialty pharmacy sends product to the patient. For the quarter ended June 30, 2012, $35.1 million of product was shipped, and $31.9 million of product was sent to patients and recognized as gross revenue. The gross to net adjustment for this revenue was approximately $2.2 million, resulting in net product revenue of $29.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2012. Gross product deferred revenue increased by $3.2 million during the second quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, $60.3 million of product was shipped, and $53.1 million of product was sent to patients and recognized as gross revenue. The gross to net adjustment for this revenue was approximately $4.1 million, resulting in net product revenue of $49.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. Gross product deferred revenue increased by $7.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Neuroeconomics is an exciting and promising field that blends insights from economics, neuroscience, and psychology to help explain human decisions. As an economist who is interested in human decisions, and whose past academic research in financial economics and behavioral finance has drawn heavily on the field of psychology, I am naturally drawn to this multidisciplinary approach in hopes that it might eventually help us better understand at a biological level what motivates people to make particular financial choices.
An unfortunate feature of some neuroscience research is that projects often incorporate the invasive study of non-human animals, typically rats or monkeys. Researchers often claim that while it would be grossly unethical to place a probe in the brain of a healthy human, or to "sacrifice" a human at the end of a study, they feel justified in subjecting non-humans to such treatment, ostensibly in the name of scientific progress.
What invariably emerges from studies of non-human animals (both non-invasive studies and those employing horrific vivisection methods) is how strikingly similar humans are to other animals. Just like humans, many animals undeniably experience fear, pain, and a rich range of emotions. Ironically, the similarities across species are cited by many researchers as justification for using non-humans as a model for humans—we study them precisely because they are so akin to humans. But such striking similarities give me pause—if non-humans are so comparable to us, including in their capacity to suffer, how can we justify subjecting them to experiments that clearly cause hardship and often death?

You both said YES! The feeling is mutual. Now the rest is up to you! Say Hi and get the conversation started.
Hey I have most of my hair!
Maybe my and/or your expectations are reasonable. I can be introverted and extroverted depending on the situation. I consider myself a personable guy who loves his kids very much....actually I like to think I am a really cool and honorable guy as well....but what am I going to say, I am pontificating about myself.
What else? I grew up in New York but have not lived there since I left for college. However, my recollections of shopping malls and traffic are still fresh. Studied and developed an interest in history, current events etc which led me to job. I am a member of the Senior Executive Service in the federal government in an interesting area...on the down side this involves a commute from MD to VA (Springfield)--not to worry though I do have satellite radio.
My interests include but are not limited to history, politics, movies, reading, exercise, diet soda and seafood. On the subject of food, I eat it to survive as do most of you. I am probably one of the few transplanted New Yorkers who loves all sorts of southern BBQ, hot sauce and old bay. Sometimes I eat spicy foods/sauces until I cry. Generally, a big fan of condiments, sauces and sodium in general.
Music? I like rock and some pop (hopefully most of it is masculine in nature). Now this is a little weird I know....just between us (and every other match person who may look at my profile) I really like certain movie soundtrack themes (ie, epics, action thrillers)....I do like to whistle sometimes but if you tell me to stop I will.
I have not traveled very much outside of the US. From reading some of the profiles on this site, I am the only one....definitely no shut ins on this site!. Everybody has gone everywhere...except me. But I guess that is something I should aspire to....travel more outside of the US that is.
I do like the beach, pool and the outdoors....thankful ly I tan well. All in all, I have devoted a lot of time over the years to my work and my family....some things have changed others will remain....self deprecating humor can work for me so I will close with my picture is not as bad in person...

This is a godsend. My miracle in a tube. Been using it for two years, and I get stopped constantly about my skin, which is amazing, bc I had terrible skin my whole life. If it was legal, I'd marry it.

I use Tretinoin 0.050% Cream for my anti-acne, anti-aging skin care regimen and it has worked wonders. Use of this and Stridex 2% Salicylic Acid Alcohol Free Pads has given me my first clear complexion since I was 14. Also, this retinoid has greatly improved my skin's texture and has significantly reduced wrinkles.
IMPORTANT: Retinoids should ONLY be used at night and in conjunction with the use of a high-protection sunscreen during the day.
I use it straight and unbuffered (full concentration, unmixed, undiluted) on the start of any blemishes to quickly remove them, and I use a pea-sized amount buffered with a pea-sized amount of Eucerin Q10 Anti-Wrinkle Sensitive Skin Creme every two to three days.
When I first began using this, I used it unbuffered and experienced a lot of peeling. Just buffering it and using it only every two or three days has solved the excessive peeling problem for me.
This is holy grail stuff for me and I will never be without it!

Run from this s@%t if you have dry skin.I got this product from my doctor and it destroyed my skin.I didn't have one wrinkle until i started using it.It made my skin very dry and now i have fine lines around my mouth.My older sisters don't even have lines around their mouths.
I think Retin-A is the only topical product that really improves the texture and appearance of your skin outside of IPL or other laser treatments. I've asked all the dermatologists and laser nurses I know about Obagi, etc., and they all say don't waste your money.
I don't use Retin-A for acne, but for wrinkles and improving my skin texture. I have to mix full strength Retin-A and Renova with moisturizer, but it still works great in my opinion for reducing redness, scarring, age spots, dull skin, etc., by increasing cellular turnover. I've used it for a decade and also done IPL, which is another really helpful treatment for sundamage.

ive already written a review for retin-a micro .04%, but i wanted to update after switching to the .025% gel. after using both for a long time, i think the key to success with retin-a is getting the right strength in the right vehicle (cream, gel etc.) to suit your skin. micro irritated my skin to no end, using it was a constant battle against dryness, flakiness and bad, damaged skin in general.
after moving down to the regular gel, i can honestly say that i love this stuff. i wash my face every night with a non-drying cleanser and wait a bit, usually about 15 minutes. i apply a dot of retin-a to each area of my face. since it is alcohol based there is a slight sting initially, but once its completely blended in, its fine. i use it about 3 times a week and use benzoyl peroxide on the alternating nights and doing this, my breakouts have been few and far between and i have not had a problem with excessive dryness/tightness, even in the middle of winter.
my advice to potential users: dont use the strongest percentage available cause you want dramatic results! i know its tempting but i promise you, youll get results with the lower strengths too and avoid all the irritation.

This is for the generic version of Retin-A 0.1% gel. I am slllloooowllly getting used to this on my face, but the purpose of this review is to share how it seems to have cured (yes, cured) my keratosis pilaris(KP) on my arms & thighs.
I had been Rx'd comboes of Retin-A 0.05% cream along with Lachydrin 12% lotion (cream at night, lotion during the day), and not only did it not work, but it sucked to use (Lachyrdin lotions are sticky & smell like ammonia).
On a whim, I tried this 0.1% gel on my arms & legs. I applied it every night for 3 nights (big mistake) & ended up with peeling red skin that hurt. Of course I stopped the gel to let things heal. When things got back to normal, I noticed that the bumps were much improved. I applied the gel again, this time only twice a week. After about 3 weeks, I was shocked to see that my bumps were completely gone (truly gone, not just diminished waiting to pop back up), and that I now only need to apply the gel about once every 7-10 days. On the off days I can indulge in all the girly lotions etc. that I could never use because they didn't do squat for me.
I hope this helps someone with their battle with this rotten condition!

More reviews by cosmeticallyinclined
I love this product. Since I had my daughter about 7 years ago, my hormones went a little nuts. I never had acne pre-birth, but after this I would have 4-6 stubborn inflammatory whitehead pustules on my chin at any given time. Since using this nightly (about 6 months) I never have them anymore. I do have to gently exfoliate my chin with a wet washrag to keep the flakies away, but that is a MINOR inconvenience!!! I only wish they would formulate it so that it isn't so drying---but maybe that is why it does it's job...????
I was perscribed this stuff for my severe acne when I first began to go see the dermatologist when I was about 14. I started at the mildest one and within a year I was on the strongest one. I have tried every level of Retin A and none of them worked for me; in fact the strongest one made my acne worse. I apparently have the most stubborn acne on the planet. Note that I eventually went on to very strong antibiotics that had no effect on my skin, so the vast majority of people do not have acne like me. I am still young so I don't know how it works as a wrinkle cream. I don't recommend it for those of you who are using it as an acne treatment who have very strong acne. If you get to the 4th or fifth level of Retin A and it is still not working for your acne, you are going to have to move on to stronger medications. I realize that this review will not help most people but I hope that it may help someone. :)

Concentration: 0.025%
Type: Cream
Brand: Tretinoin (Galderma)
This is my one and only holy grail for skincare. With this, I can do without facials, expensive makeup, expensive skincare. After a month of Retin-A, I can solemnly and very sadly admit that all that I have spent on luxury skincare and makeup has never matched up to this, and probably never will. I discovered this by accident online a month ago, and decided to plunge into it after reading rave reviews about it from both customers and dermatologists about it's proven anti-aging potency. I am currently 26, and have noticed fine lines around my eye area that i really want to fix. But what plagues me most since my teenage years was whiteheads and clogged pores. I hate how my pores look up close, and I hate feeling bumps on my face from time to time, especially when i use unsuitable facial products. After just a week of Retin-A my skin has almost completely cleared up - I still have about 10 whiteheads on my face at any one time, but this is already a 90% reduction. My skin is smooth like never before! When I met my facialists they noted such a marked change that they have to prescribe new treatments, and colleagues have been asking me how I got my face to be so smooth. Now I can enjoy moisturisers, lotions, rich eye creams, and even makeup like never before, without having to worry about clogging my pores so much anymore. Blush and powder look ssooo much better on smooth skin too!
So now for the side effects. For me, i'm lucky to just have experienced some sensitivity and dryness (flakies around my lip area, lower cheeks, eyes) in the past weeks, but this is wearing off. I stop applying it once i feel some rawness in my skin, so i'm quite careful with this. On average, this comes up to applying it about 2-3 times a week. Another thing, I can no longer use peeling masks or scrubs as liberally as i did in the past, which is a good thing i guess, since i never really knew when to hold back when i get new whiteheads like every other day. I didn't experience any purging period, which was lucky.
Using this, I continue to be extremely careful with sunscreen - i always use SPF 50 when i go out to work or play, sometimes SPF 32 when i'm just lingering at home doing nothing.
Price-wise, it is dirt-cheap where I am (about 12 USD?). I also get a doctor friend to prescribe it for me. Even if it is slightly pricier in other places, I absolutely recommend giving this a shot because it can easily cost tonnes less than loads of expensive anti-aging or anti-acne skincare. I would recommend starting with a low concentration first to play it safe.
I will update you guys on how I continue to fare with this after a couple more months.

I know I probably have nothing to add that hasn't been said before but still, I felt this miracle product needed one more positive, 5 lipstick review on the list. I got it because a) I smoke, and religious sunscreen use can only get you so far and b) years of mild acne has taken its toll, leaving me with dullish skin, red marks and large looking pores.
I have tried the Retin A Micro in the lowest concentration and am now using the tretinoin gel in .04. The RAM definitely gave me less irritation in the beginning (almost none, in fact) and it did give results. The gel was a different story...very RED, flaky skin for a week. The flakes continued until I added an AHA product for the off nights (I say, don't even think about starting off every night with the gel!!). The gel hasn't improved zits yet but I noticed a difference in the fine lines near my eyes very fast. And for us unfortunate smokers: it is starting to resurface that area near my upper lip, which was starting to look dull and primed for those dreaded smoker's wrinkles.
The way I used it for slightly sensitive skin was: every other night, jojoba oil morning & night with a light washcloth exfoliation, after a week added an AHA toner/scrub. Until adding AHA, I honestly didn't have much luck combating the flakes like some of the other women here have. Extra moisturizer and a hat and the holidays (AKA hiding out with family!) were my only defenses.

Land use/land cover changes and regional climate over the Loess Plateau during 2001–2009. Part I: observational evidence

Adverse environmental impacts from deforestation are a growing area of concern in climate change discussions. The Chinese government has implemented a series of policies, such as the Grain for Green Project, in an attempt to mitigate the impacts. This study takes a regional perspective to report land use/land cover changes over the Loess Plateau region from 2001 to 2009. MODIS data were used in analyzing both the conversions among and the resulting changes in different land types. Government statistical census data and observed climate data were also incorporated in the analysis. A general consistency is shown in both remotely sensed and census data. With the implementation of various projects, including the Grain for Green Project, the total areas covered by grassland, cropland, and forests have increased by 19.2 % (6.05 × 104 km2), 33.7 % (5.80 × 104 km2), and 19.6 % (3.08 × 104 km2), respectively, during the 9-year period. While climatic conditions, particularly annual precipitation totals, usually dominate the distribution of vegetation, it is found that socioeconomic polices and human activities contribute to the increase in overall greenness and to vegetation growth (e.g., LAI increased by 16.8 % (0.10) overall). However, the feedback of land use/land cover to regional climate is complicated and cannot be easily distinguished from natural climate variations based on short-term observational data alone. To better isolate the effects, further analysis and modeling studies are suggested.

How Does Ed Westwick Want Gossip Girl to End?by Steve Marsi at . Comments
Will they or won't they?
The question of whether Chuck and Blair are "endgame" is likely to persist in the lead-up to, and throughout, Gossip Girl Season 6. Will legions of Chair fans receive the payoff they've waited years for?
We'll have to wait and see, obviously, but how would the actors themselves like to see the series conclude? In a new interview with the Grungy Gentleman, Ed Westwick was asked that very question.
Here's his response:
"Ah man that's the billion dollar question, isn't it? We have had so many cliffhangers at the end of seasons with like, 'Will Chuck and Blair get together, won't they?' and obviously they haven't."
"I mean I'm sure they're going to give it the fairy tale ending the series deserves. Hopefully, Blair and Chuck will end up together. I would like it to end that way. But as to how, I am not sure how I want to see it happen."
How do you want Gossip Girl to conclude later this year? Share your thoughts in the comments below, and follow the link above for a full interview with Ed in which he discusses all faces of his life.

why dair fans are here? i thought you guys were going to quit the show? if i were you and producers said that chair were over i wouldn't even bother to make any comments anymore i would just drop the show.U guys are so pathetic chair is endagme get over it and dair is dead, they never should have happen in the first place.
I really didn't like Dan's attitude at the end,barroom sex with Serena that he seemed to enjoy, because Blair didn't show up at a restaurant,then tells her the next day, Goodbye, our folks are divorcing so I never have to see you again! That was cruel and to me pretty verbally abusive. Chuck is trying to be a good person, taking care of a hotel and his dog (doing a pretty good job of it.) I like the way he treats Monkey, spayed him responsibly,walks,feeds and loves him. That is a good picture of what a person is. What is Dan taking care of? He can't even cut his hair, and teaming up with Georgina, why is he so mad at everyone???? Sorry, that guy is not to be trusted. Chuck and Blair!
Because of course Chuck has never spied on Blair or stalked her or sent hateful blasts to GG. And let's not forget sleeping with Jenny and anything else that moves, whoring Blair out, abandoning her on a number of occasions and so on. Also he only has Monkey because of Dan. You think Chuck would've adopted a dog off his own back? And where the hell is the dog whilst he's swanning around Monte Carlo? I like Chuck but all you Chuck fans need to stop seeing him through rose tinted specs and making excuses for his behaviour. And Dan is no angel but nowhere near Chuck's level of dysfunction. And to the 'fans' making nasty and personal comments - that's out of line. No need for it.
How can Dair be called sweet? Dan is a creepy stalker. And shouldn't it bother him at least a little that Blair has exiled his sis', and doesn't he need to work that out before being with Blair? Doesn't this make him a total jerk to his family? And what about the blast at Blair's wedding, sleeping with Serena because he can't find Blair for 1 night, exploiting his friends with the book he published, turning his back on his life long friend Vanessa (who admittedly made mistakes) but then forgiving all his insider friends. Not saying I like Vanessa or Jenny, but seriously, Dan is a judgmental jerk, and a creepy, selfish stalker. Chuck has his issues too, and I'm not saying it's healthy for Blair to be with Chuck, but just please don't act like Dair is wholesome and sweet. How many girls would like a boyfriend that secretly follows them around, spies on them, sleeps with the bff because he can't find you for 1 night, has no regard for his own sister, emails video blasts of private moments that can wreck their lives, treats his ex-girlfriend/half-sister like dirt, and writes books criticizing their and their friends lives?
Wrong, the right couple wins. What abuse? The last episode, Blair made a point of saying, Chuck made her feel happier then she had ever been. Why do you think she said that? They have a history together, strong chemistry, great sex, great scenes together, the good and bad, but their love is strong and true. If two people are not both in love-what do you have? One person who says I love you and the other says: I know now? Dan, lies, spies and has barroom sex with Blair's best friend Serena, who he knows is in love with him and he is somehow a better match? No chemistry, no deep love, someone who basically disliked and hated her for years? You sound like sour grapes to me. BLair seems to have woke up and knows who she wants, better face it. If Dan was any kind of a good person he would help Serena who obviously loves him and is going down a dark path.
I am an ex-Chair fan who will forever remain a DAIR fan. Sometimes the wrong couple wins. I can't tell you how many times I have seen a couple continually stay together despite the fact that they make each other worse. Blair will be a fictional version of a marriage that results in abuse and unhappiness and ends in divorce. A Chair ending would be a sad ending for me.
Chuck and Blair are the best couple on TV! They deserve a great ending! As Nate said, none of them are saints. Dan has lied repeatedly to Blair, stalked and spied on her and simply doesn't trust her, sends hurtful blasts to GG (like the one at her wedding and the drunk Blair singing at her birthday party...) not to mention Serena and how he knows SHE really loves him and is hurting. Chuck never sold Blair, never hit her, has admitted his mistakes (even to his father),voted like 100 times for her for prom queen,apologized to BLair, Jenny and Serena for his actions, rescued her when she was kidnapped, told her he would love her baby that wasn't his, tried to talk her out of marring Louie when her mom asked him to help,truly loves her,carried around a ring for years for her, paid her dowry which almost bankrupt him financially,helped his father and (my favorite!)adopted a scruffy homeless dog, which he walks,feds and loves, the only guy that did. I love Chuck..
Of course Chuck and Blair should be together in the end, it is only realistic for the two of them. But I must add that Serena and Dan must be together in the end because that is what needs to happen from the beginning of the series. Majority know that I am a big fan of Serena and Dan, then my opinion for this is normal. Reading the comments I saw that someone compares Chuck and Blair with Ross and Rachel, I have nothing against, but I think that Serena and Dan are true Rachel and Ross!
Of coarse Blair and Chuck will be back together...lets just forget everything he has done over the years like try to rape Jenny, eventually sleeping with her cos he couldn't wait like 5 mins for Blair, selling Blair for a hotel, buying her back when he paid her dowry, hitting her...wow Blair has degraded so much its sad that she wants to go back to an abusive relationship. @Flora, ITA!
Why are the Dair fans still posting? They said they were to stop watching the show...

You must have edited this out, but I looked into it and finally made sense of it. After looking it over, I realized that this line of code was going back 8 bytes from 'ptr' but my real intention was to basically subtract 8 [ sizeof (MemChunk* )* 2 ] from the actual address of the pointer. I _think_ I accomplished that, like this.
'ptr' does not point to itself. Even if it did this would not be correct, since the arg is a copy with the same value rather than the same pointer. You need to search out the pointer value manually.virtual void dealloc(char* ptr, size_t = 0) {MemChunk *pCurChunk = (MemChunk*) ((char*) ptr - sizeof(MemChunk));
MemChunk *pCurChunk = (MemChunk*) reinterpret_cast<char*>(reinterpret_cast<ptrdiff_t>(ptr)- static_cast<ptrdiff_t>(sizeof(MemChunk*) * 2));Whether this fixed my problem is still yet to be tested extensively, but it passed the quick test I put together for it.
I also took your advice and added a data member to the MemChunk struct which does allow me to use an array index, making things a lot more readable.
Lastly, I realized that the addresses from mFirst to mLast were descending, which was the opposite of what I wanted it to do (which accounts for the weird subtraction in the getPtr() function). To fix that, I made the loop that links the nodes together run backwards (from mMaxSize to 0). That allowed me to directly access the memory in the getPtr function the way I intended.
Ah yeah, I edited that post like 20 times as I was wrestling with the forum and also trying to understand what the code as up to. I was confused as to what direction the list was going, but there's a lot of other stuff in there that seemed weird to me as well. I recognize that this is experimentation code. If I may point a few things out about the general design:
If you can access the allocated members by array index there's no need for MemChunk. You're just implementing a very complicated array, or perhaps reinventing std::vector at length. If all elements are equivalent in type then an indexed allocation is all you need, right?
In the case that you're wanting to be able to allocate multiple objects with one call then there's a simpler approach that may appeal to you:
Make yourself a struct like MemChunk. It needs next/prev pointers and should contain a 'size' indicator of some sort (element count or byte length or both). It may also contain metadata, such as the name of the allocation or whatever.
In your allocator class create a pointers to this type, 'root', 'head' and 'tail' or whatever. Point them all to the base of the allocation and zerofill the first sizeof(YourStruct) bytes of the allocation.
'root' shall never move. You need it to free the master allocation.
When you want to allocate, set the 'byteSize' member of 'tail' to the number of bytes you want, set your other metadata, then calculate a new pointer position: (sizeof(YourStruct) + byteSize). Set the 'next' member of 'tail' to that value, record the position of 'tail' then set 'tail' to tail->next. Finally, set tail->prev to the old 'tail' value and tail->next to NULL, indicating the end of the list.
Essentially 'tail' refers to the next allocatable space. For any linked node, if node->next is NULL then that's the end of the list and no valid data follows it. If root->next is NULL then no allocations are present.
To delete/free an allocation via its pointer simply subtract sizeof(YourStruct) from that pointer and unlink the node at that location. Check to see if the node is == head, and if so then unlink simply by saying head = head->next. Otherwise do a bidirectional unlink as normal.
You can enumerate determine the available space as follows:
endPtr = (address of root) + (size of master allocation)
available bytes = endPtr - (address of tail)
Just ensure that you use a byte-length type when you do the math there, or better yet, convert the pointers to an size_t and do the math on those. (size_t is unsigned 64-bit integer on an x64 system)
If you delete allocations that are not at the end then the memory will become fragmented. Rather than trying to cram things into the cracks just throw a bool indicating that a deallocation has caused fragmentation. If you run out of space and the fragmented flag is true you can traverse the nodes and compact the memory using <string.h> memmove() (I'll probably catch hell for saying that since it's a C function.). At that point check the available space as mentioned above and if it's still not enough then you can reallocate the master and copy in the data. Alternatively you can have const functions that return the available space and fragmentation status and expose the realloc and defrag functions. (if realloc is called when fragmentation is true just defrag into the new allocation)
Hope that helps.
Semi-edit - I clicked post and my phone took a crap, so I C&P my post body and reloaded, then Codarki had posted. Sorry if I'm reiterating. I consider myself ninja'd.
(OMG I'm about to go super saiyan and punch this parser in the dong.)

I am a professional gourd artist and freelance writer from Newaygo, MI.
I began gourding when I was just 10 with my mom, helping her decorate gourds for the Christmas tree. My love of nature, the outdoors, farming and gardening, and my Faith play a big part in the kind of gourds I create. I began selling gourds in 2001 and my passion only grew from there. I wanted to learn all the gourding techniques there was to decorate a gourd. As I experimented and created, it hit me. It was impossible for me to learn everything - the gourd canvas has endless possibilities; well as endless as ones imagination! This fact caught my full attention and I flew with it. I don't think I will ever stop gourding. I think I caught the gourd fever! I am happy to be able to share my passion with others and to teach others about the wonderful world of gourd art.
Beside gourds my many interests include, but never limited to my Faith, crafts of all kinds, writing, blogging, gardening, farming, horticulture, learning new things, landscaping, the outdoors, taking walks, exploring, singing, learning songs and making my own, photography, woodworking, drawing, painting, flower arranging, reading, watching movies, solving mysteries, shopping, fashion, playing with my hair, cuddling our kittens, whistling, talking with an accent, and laughing and being silly. :)

I mean, they can't even get their stories straight, and if they can't do that, how in the world are they going to return the 'Boys to glory?
"This was all of our decisions," Campo offered shortly before Jones said the final decision was his alone. "We work as an organization here. We work with the staff and Mr. Jones and the administrative people. This is a collective decision."
You can't really fault Campo. I doubt that he believed any of the crap he said Monday, but then what was he going to do? The man is little more than an enabler, a puppet who's capable of agreeing with the boss at all the right times. I might even feel bad for Campo if yes-men didn't cause me to retch.
This big-picture overview is so sordid and complicated that my brain is damn close to exploding. So let's dumb it down, for me, and narrow the focus.
If you wade through this sea of sloppy, maddening propaganda, what you're left with is a new quarterback who the Cowboys are evaluating for the future but who they swear is here to help them now. What you're left with is an owner/GM who is a habitual liar, not to mention a football incompetent. What you're left with is a once-proud franchise with no direction, going nowhere fast.
You're left with all that, and this, too: "I felt like, and we felt like as an organization, that we ought to be moving the ball and we ought to be scoring more points," Jones said. "I saw [the Pats] go to the Super Bowl last year and win it with a second-year quarterback, and those are the types of standards that we're looking at, whether fair or unfair. I felt like, and we felt like, we're very comfortable and we've been very patient with this decision...
"We have every bit as much confidence [in Hutchinson] as we did in Quincy."

This feature that we are going to add to our Groundswell site is the ability to resize the form element for entering comments on our registration form and this is going to illustrate using one of the jQuery UI interactions, which is the Resizable interaction. So what I am going to do is click on the Register link here and you can see that there is a Comments field here and it's pretty sizeable. The user can type their comments. But what if we want to make this resizable so the user has more area to type in? So what we are going to do is go over to the code and implement the jQuery UI Resizable interaction to let the user resize that comments area.
So let's go to the code. So here we are in the folder for the example, and inside the lifestyle, there is a register file. I am going to open that up in my editor. Let's find that in the design. So that's down here in the code. So this is the text area right here, and this text area, we are going to make resizable and you can see it's wrapped inside of a div named comments section, and the text area itself has an id of comments.
So a couple of things we are going to do. First, we need to include the necessary jQuery library and the jQuery UI library at the top of the file. So we are going to go back at the top and we are going to do that. And we also include the CSS file. So I am just going to copy and paste this and the file is in the sunny sub-folder because that's the thing we downloaded. And it's called jquery-ui-1.7.2.custom.
Okay, so now we have included the style sheet. Now we need to include the script file for both jQuery and jQuery UI. So we are going to do that. We are going to type script and the type is equal to JavaScript and the source is the scripts folder and it's jquery-1. 3.2.min.js and that's that script right there and then we are going to include the jQuery UI and that's jquery-ui-1.7.2.custom.min.js.
All right, so now that we have included the script, we can assign the resizable behavior to our text area. So let's go ahead and do that and remember that's just a simple matter in jQuery of when the page loads, and I am going to declare my little page load function right here. So when the page loads, we are going to use jQuery to get a reference to the Comments section div and we are going to make that resizable.
So that's pretty much all we need to do to make it resizable. Let's see how that works out. So jump over to the browser. I am going to refresh. So you can see now that a little resize handle has been added here at the bottom of the Comments field, so we can resize. But you can see that there is a bit of a problem. We don't want the user to be able to resize this thing across the entire page. It will be nice if we can just constrain it somehow so that they can't make it too small or too big.
So let's set about solving that problem. So let's go back to the code. So what we need to do is specify that there is a maximum and minimum width for the field. So here in my function, I am going to declare a couple of variables. First, I am going to declare a maxWidth variable and what I am going to do is I am going to set that to be whatever the current width of the field is. That way it can't get any bigger than it currently is.
So I am going to use jQuery to retrieve a reference to the Comments section div, and I am just going to ask for its width. Remember from our CSS section that we can get the width of any element by doing this. Now in the resizable call, pass in some parameters to resizable, because remember it takes some parameters like what we want the min width and max width to be, and so on and so forth. So we are going to pass in an object and I am going to say that the maxWidth can't be any more than the maxw.
That's should fix the max problem. Let's go back to the browser and see. So I am going to refresh and yeah, sure enough, it can't get any wider than it used to be. That's its maximum, so that's good. I still have to fix the minimum problems though. So let's go back to the code. So we are going to do the same thing for the minimum width and minimum height. I am going to declare another variable named min width and I am going to set that to be equal to max width. So that way, the text area will only stay as wide as it currently is.
It won't get any more narrow and it won't get anymore wide. And finally, I am going to declare another variable and this one is going to be called min height. I am going to do the same kind of trick that I did with the width. I am going to copy that, I am going to paste this and now I am going to ask for whatever the current height is. Okay, so now, I know how wide it is and how high it is. I did just set the right parameters. There is maxWidth. I am going to do min height and that's minh and I am going to do min width and that will be minWidth.
Now I have set all the right parameters, all I need to do now is save, and we will go back to the browser, and now we will refresh. So now you can see that I can only resize the element up and down. I can't make it any wider, I can't make it anymore narrow, and I can only resize it down to the point where it was as high as it was to begin with. So I have pretty much used jQuery UI now to provide a feature to my users. They can now type in the field and now they can enter text and if they don't think it's big enough, well, they can just go ahead and resize that down.
I will just scroll the page down. So they can make it as nice and large as they want to. And just to make sure it works cross browser, let's try it on Firefox. So I am going to open this up in the Firefox browser and I'll scroll down and you can see, yup, there is the resize handle, and sure enough, yup, working just the same way. So that's pretty much all the features that we are going to use from the jQuery UI library.
However I highly encourage you to experiment. You can take the source code for the Groundswell site as you have it in your example files folder, if you have access to the example files. Feel free to play around with the jQuery UI settings and see what you can make happen.

Barack Obama Officially Sworn in as President For Second Term (PHOTOS)
The President, who was joined by his family for Sunday's private ceremony, will be publicly sworn in on Monday.
It's official!
Barack Obama has officially kicked off his duties for a second term as the 44th President of the United States.
On Sunday, the 51-year-old was joined by his family -- wife Michelle Obama (who was sporting new bangs) and their daughters Sasha and Malia -- for the private swearing in, administered by Supreme Court Justice John Roberts.
Vice President Joe Biden was sworn in by Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor hours earlier at the Naval Observatory.
The formal gathering, which satisfied the Constitutional requirement that the swearing-in is held on Jan. 20 after every election, was a far cry from Monday's highly anticipated public affair.
Some 800,000 people are expected to descend upon the National Mall on Monday for the president's star-studded inauguration ceremony. Four years ago, an estimated 1.8 million people attended the president's historic swearing-in.As previously announced, Beyonce, Kelly Clarkson and James Taylorare all slated to perform for the president.
On Saturday, Katy Perry, Usher, Nick Cannon and cast members from Glee held a Kids' Inaugural Concert at the Washington Convention Center for a crowd that included First Lady Michelle Obama and her daughters.
Are you going to watch Monday's inauguration ceremony? Which celebrity appearances are you looking forward to? Weigh in below.

NEW YORK (AP) — Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says two American hikers arrested and convicted on spy-related charges there could be freed "in a couple of days."
Ahmadinejad announced the upcoming release on NBC's "Today" show in an interview aired early today, saying it would be a humanitarian gesture.
The development comes after their defense attorney said an Iranian court set bail of $500,000 each for Shane Bauer and Josh Fattal, arrested more than two years ago. The move clears the way for their release a year after a similar bail-for-freedom arrangement for Sarah Shourd, the third member of the group.

Microsoft names Satya Nadella as new CEO
Microsoft has named Satya Nadella, an executive in charge of the company's small, but growing business of delivering software and services over the Internet, as its new CEO. Company founder Bill Gates is leaving the chairman role for a new role as technology adviser.
The software company announced Tuesday that Nadella will replace Steve Ballmer, who said in August that he would leave the company within 12 months. Nadella will become only the third leader in the software giant's 38-year history, after Gates and Ballmer. Board member John Thompson will serve as Microsoft's new chairman.
Nadella, who is 46 and has worked at Microsoft for 22 years, has been an executive in some of the company's fastest-growing and most profitable businesses, including its Office and server and tools business.
For the past seven months, he was the executive vice president who led Microsoft's cloud computing offerings. That's a new area for Microsoft, which has traditionally focused on software installed on personal computers rather than on remote servers connected to the Internet. Nadella's group has been growing strongly, although it remains a small part of Microsoft's current business.
"Satya is a proven leader with hard-core engineering skills, business vision and the ability to bring people together," Gates said in a statement. "His vision for how technology will be used and experienced around the world is exactly what Microsoft needs as the company enters its next chapter of expanded product innovation and growth."
The company said that Gates, in his new role as founder and technology advisor, "will devote more time to the company, supporting Nadella in shaping technology and product direction."
Gates will also remain a member of Microsoft's board.
Analysts hope that Nadella can maintain the company's momentum in the rapidly expanding field of cloud computing while minimizing the negative impact from Microsoft's unprofitable forays into consumer hardware. Major rivals in cloud computing include Google Inc., Amazon.com Inc., Salesforce.com Inc. and IBM Corp.
Microsoft shares rose 32 cents to $36.80 in morning trading.
Nadella's appointment comes at a time of turmoil for Microsoft.
Founded in April 1975 by Gates and Paul Allen, the company has always made software that powered computers made by others — first with its MS-DOS system, then with Windows and its Office productivity suite starting in the late 1980s. Microsoft's coffers swelled as more individuals and businesses bought personal computers.
But Microsoft has been late adapting to developments in the technology industry. It allowed Google to dominate in online search and advertising, and it watched as iPhones, iPads and Android devices grew to siphon sales from the company's strengths in personal computers. Its attempt to manufacture its own devices has been littered with problems, from its quickly aborted Kin line of phones to its still-unprofitable line of Surface tablets.
Analysts see hope in some of the businesses Nadella had a key role in creating.
Microsoft's cloud computing offering, Azure, and its push to have consumers buy Office software as a $100-a-year Office 365 subscription are seen as the biggest drivers of Microsoft's growth in the next couple of years. Both businesses saw the number of customers more than double in the last three months of the year, compared with a year earlier.
Those businesses, along with other back-end offerings aimed at corporate customers, are the main reason why investment fund ValueAct Capital invested $1.6 billion in Microsoft shares last year.
Last April, the fund urged investors to ignore the declining PC market — which hurts Microsoft's Windows business — and to focus on the so-called "plumbing" that Microsoft provides to help companies analyze massive amounts of data and run applications essential to their businesses on Microsoft's servers or their own.
"Satya was really one of the people who helped build up the commercial muscle," said Kirk Materne, an analyst with Evercore Partners. "He has a great understanding of what's going on in the cloud and the importance of delivering more technology as a service."
Nadella is a technologist, fulfilling the requirement that Gates set out at the company's November shareholder meeting, where the Microsoft chairman said the company's new leader must have "a lot of comfort in leading a highly technical organization."

Chevron's Jack/St. Malo Development Is Located Approximately 280 Miles (450 Km) South Of New Orleans, Louisiana In 7,000 Feet (2,134 M) Of Water. (Graphic: Business Wire)
Chevron Corporation (NYSE: CVX) today announced that it had conducted a successful production test on the St. Malo PS003 well in the prolific Lower Tertiary trend in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico. Oil flow rates, though limited by testing equipment constraints, exceeded 13,000 barrels of oil per day.
The test, in Walker Ridge Block 678, targeted Lower Tertiary sands more than 20,000 feet (6,096 m) under the sea floor and was conducted during August and September 2012. This is the first development well in the St. Malo field, which is being jointly developed with the Jack field.
"The well test is a further demonstration of the potential of the Lower Tertiary and highlights our leadership in developing deepwater resources globally," said Chevron Vice Chairman George Kirkland.
"The results of this production test further confirm the significance of the St. Malo field," said Gary Luquette, president, Chevron North America Exploration and Production Company. "The jointly developed Jack and St. Malo fields are expected to provide a major step-up in Chevron's production from 2014 and produce domestic energy for decades to come."The Jack and St. Malo fields are located within 25 miles (40 km) of each other and are being jointly developed with a host floating production unit located between the two fields in 7,000 feet (2,134 m) of water, approximately 280 miles (450 km) south of New Orleans, Louisiana. The facility is planned to have a design capacity of 177,000 barrels of oil-equivalent per day to accommodate production from the Jack/St. Malo development, which is estimated at a maximum total daily rate of 94,000 barrels of oil-equivalent, plus production from third-party tiebacks. Total project costs for the initial phase of the development are estimated at $7.5 billion. Chevron has a working interest of 51 percent in the St. Malo field. Other owners of the St. Malo field are Petrobras (25 percent), Statoil (21.5 percent), ExxonMobil (1.25 percent) and ENI (1.25 percent).
