The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Russia and the U.S.: The Unexpected Common Ground
U.S. President Barack Obama and Russian President Dmitri Medvedev on
Thursday held their first meeting of the year on the sidelines of the
G-8 in France. It was clear that the meeting would be tense, as Russia
has been aggressively pushing for a change in U.S. policy on ballistic
missile defense (BMD) in Europe. However, the two sides have found
common ground in another area that may carry their relationship for the
next few years - Afghanistan.
Missile defense has been a tumultuous issue between Washington and
Moscow for years. Washington plans to deploy systems in Poland and
Romania. Russia views this as introducing an American military presence
in its former Soviet sphere and right on the border with what Russia
sees as its current sphere of influence in Ukraine and Belarus. Of
course, that is exactly what Washington and would-be participating
countries want. BMD is intended to defend Europe against threats from
the Islamic theater. But Central Europeans view it as a U.S. bulwark
preventing Russia from rolling its influence back across their region,
as it has across most former Soviet states.
"There is another issue that will keep some peace between the two large
powers in the short term - Afghanistan."
Russia has repeatedly attempted to get both the United States and
participating European states to back down from the plan. Washington has
muddied the issue by asserting that BMD isn't just an American, but
rather a NATO-led project. However, thus far, BMD arrangements have been
made bilaterally, not within the NATO alliance. Because of this,
Russia's latest push against the United States' plans has attempted to
leverage members of NATO against each other over the issue of BMD.
Moscow has proposed integrating Russia in the BMD plans, networking
NATO's BMD with Russia's. Moscow argues that if BMD really is meant to
defend against threats from the Islamic theater, NATO should welcome a
stronger network.
Many of the larger NATO member states are open to hearing Russia's
proposals for a single European BMD network, but this has not deterred
the United States, Poland or Romania from pursuing their deals
bilaterally and without NATO input. Washington just wrapped up the
latest round of legal wrangling with Romania in May and will discuss the
issue when Obama arrives in Poland.
Emerging from their bilateral meeting, both Obama and Medvedev were
noticeably tense when asked about BMD. Obama said there could one day be
an agreement that suited both parties, while Medvedev clearly stated
that such an agreement would not occur during either of their
presidencies and most likely not for another decade - in other words,
long after the United States has deployed BMD in Central Europe.
In short, there will never be a compromise on the BMD issue between the
United States and Russia. It is clear that this issue will continue to
define the larger struggle between Moscow and Washington over influence
in Eurasia. However, there is another issue that will keep some peace
between the two large powers in the short term - Afghanistan.
In the past, Russia has used its ability to aid U.S. and NATO efforts in
Afghanistan as a bargaining chip. Russia has flipped back and forth on
whether to allow NATO to transit supplies into Afghanistan via Russia
and the former Soviet states it influences. In the past year, Russia has
pulled dramatically back from politicizing the issue. Moreover, Moscow
has gone out of its way to find new ways to increase support for NATO in
Afghanistan, such as opening up new supply routes, supplying fuel,
increasing the sharing of intelligence on the region, and refurbishing
old Soviet hardware for some of the contributing fighting forces.
More than a case of Russia turning over a new leaf, Moscow's helpful
stance shows the panic gripping the Kremlin about the reality of the
region once the United States finally leaves Afghanistan. There is
increasing debate in Moscow (and Central Asian capitals) on how the
region will destabilize once the United States pulls out. Russia is
concerned that when the Americans leave, militants from Central Asia and
elsewhere that have been fighting for the past decade will return north.
There is also a concern that without a foreign force in the country,
Afghan drug flows will increase, mostly heading north as well.
Russia has already started to plan for these events by deploying nearly
7,000 troops in southern Central Asia. But Russia wants the Americans to
stick around in Afghanistan - bearing the brunt of the burden - as long
as possible, while it sets up a proper defense in Central Asia. Russia
also wants Washington to continue to dump billions into the Afghan
security forces, so when the Americans are out, those forces will hold
the focus of the militants. Meanwhile, this is an urgent matter for the
United States. Washington is anxious to diversify its supply routes into
Afghanistan after tensions with Pakistan, its chief transit partner,
have escalated in the wake of the U.S. raid in Pakistan to get Osama bin
Laden. Washington is in a very delicate position, trying to shape an end
game in Afghanistan while dealing with an uncomfortable partnership with
Pakistan. Russia provides a small measure of relief by helping bear some
of the transit load during this time.
For now, Russia wants to be as helpful as possible to ensure the U.S.
can work effectively - and for longer - in Afghanistan. It doesn't hurt
that the longer the U.S. stays in Afghanistan, the longer it will be
before they strengthen their presence in Europe again. Overall, this
doesn't mean that U.S.-Russian relations are warm, but Afghanistan is
the common ground that will keep the larger clash on the horizon from
unfolding in the short term.

Columbia River Chapter of American Marquetry Society
OPB | May 24, 2007 8 p.m.
Dating back to the time of Egyptian pharaohs, marquetry is an ancient art. Woodworkers Gerry Laddusaw, Gary Meyers, and Larry Schmidt demonstrate this ancient craft of creating designs by cutting out and overlaying different kinds of wood veneers. The three men belong to the Columbia River chapter of the American Marquetry Society and their goal is to keep the craft alive by teaching it to others.

Praise for The Number Devil (book review)
I brought this home from the thrift store, without any particularly high hopes for getting Dollygirl interested in a story that was supposed to be a mathematical version of The Phantom Tollbooth or Alice in Wonderland. Such books often have a didactic smell of the nursery, even when they're new; and this one is fairly new: it was published in German in 1999, and the English translation came out in 2000. And translated books...well, sometimes they work and sometimes they don't.
If you're old enough, you might remember the Life cereal commercials: let Mikey try it, he hates everything. I am very happy to say that The Number Devil (at least the ten of twelve chapters we've read) has surpassed not only my expectations, but Dollygirl's.
You can get the gist of the plot through Amazon and elsewhere. Briefly, a math-hating boy named Robert has a series of dreams, each featuring a little red guy with horns who does amazing things with numbers. Yes, Robert does learn to appreciate math more, but not in a "behave yourself better" way; even The Phantom Tollbooth always has a bit of that "Milo, smarten up" aura around it. The Number Devil just happens to show up and make life...or at least dreams...more interesting, and you learn something at the same time.
I like the fact that several of the math threads continue throughout the book, such as "Bonacci numbers" (what the Number Devil calls the Fibonacci sequence). I've seen too many books that give a page or so to things like that, and then it's off to something completely different and you never see them again. Robert's dreams have different topics, but they're definitely sequential...and they come back to a starting place, usually "one." (Who knew that "one" could be so interesting?) I also like the colourful diagrams; to my poor non-math-major's mind, they make some kind of sense. The dialogue is snappy, not patronizing, and doesn't get bogged down with what it's trying to teach; that in itself is worth a few stars.
I do agree with the reviews that complain a bit that the book doesn't always use standard terminology, although there is a sort of "translator" at the end. If a kid gets used to "Prima Donnas" (prime numbers) and "hopping" (squaring), he or she is going to have to get that straightened out eventually. But there are really only a few invented terms, so it's not too hard; no worse than when I was teaching my kids to read with words like "cab" and "bac." Who cared, at that point, that "bac" should have a k on it? It didn't mess them up permanently.
We'll miss the Number Devil when the dreams are over.
Highly recommended, probably for ages 10-14.

I'm glad to hear your review. I have this book on my shelves, and was planning on using it next term along with a couple of the Murderous Maths books and a fractal unit as a once a week fun maths subject. I was inspired by Mason's idea of doing different branches of maths as different subjects, and thought that it would be worth a try to keep maths interesting and inspire some of her 'awe and wonder' in a subject that can appear dry and boring.

Thanks for sharing! I will check this book out soon. Another Great Math resource that we like using, that is free, is from a site called "Learning Games For Kids". Math,IMO, has always been that subject that is never easy to get kids excited to do. So,I of course am always looking for ways to make it more inviting ;)
Hope you and yours has a Happy New Year!

Going Global
This trend spells big business opportunities for savvy systems integrators. The key is learning how to effectively compete and operate on a global scene.
Quick: Name the world's hottest market for high-end AV technology. Then count how many places popped into your head before Dubai. Many AV pros in close touch with international markets cite Dubai as one of the world's true hot spots. The explosion of AV business in the Persian Gulf state also illustrates the paradox of doing business overseas for American companies: The business is out there — and it can be substantial — but cashing in on such opportunities is easier said than done.
"One of the hottest markets in the world today is Dubai," says George Douglas, senior vice president of Columbia, MD-based AV systems integrator SPL Integrated Solutions. However, he adds, "Everything about the way you do business is different from here."
Dubai, part of the United Arab Emirates, "actually has a 10- to 20-year buildout plan," Douglas says, adding that 50 of the top U.S. corporations already have a presence in Dubai. In fact, the nation is in the midst of building a major theme park to go with a growing number of business parks and IT centers.
Michael Blackman, managing director of the exhibition Integrated Systems Europe (ISE), says hotels and residential applications top the list of hot niches in Dubai. High-end hotels, in particular, "want to be the biggest, best, and most modern — and they don't care what it costs," Blackman says.
Chuck Wilson, executive director of the National Systems Contractors Association (NSCA), a Cedar Rapids, IA-based commercial electronic systems industry organization, also characterizes the Dubai area as a hot market for AV. "A lot of American companies are doing work there, but labor can be a problem," he maintains.
For example, many U.S. firms with big jobs in Dubai have to bring people from home to direct these projects, says Wilson — and "that's a big cost and a hardship."
Fairfax, VA-based professional AV and communications industry association InfoComm International, NSCA, and others aren't sure how many U.S. AV integrators and consultants are active in markets outside of North America. Yet with so much growth and investment going on in so many regions, the attractiveness of these markets is surely growing.
Randal A. Lemke, executive director of InfoComm International, says his association's research indicates that the North American AV market, worth about $19 billion annually, accounts for only about 40 percent of the global total, with Europe at 30 percent and Asia at 25 percent.
Lemke believes many overseas opportunities for U.S. companies arise from the activities of multinational corporate clients, who want all of their offices and systems to be consistent in equipment and operations. Leading integrators also report that overseas markets first open up as a result of strong relations with clients here at home.
Douglas says SPL does several major international projects each year. So far, they've almost all been driven by domestic business relationships. "The bulk of our projects overseas have been tied to our corporate customers," he says. "It's a matter of keeping our customers happy."
Jeff Singer, public relations manager of Rockleigh, NJ-based control and automation systems maker Crestron, says the picture looks similar from a manufacturer's viewpoint. "We find that AV is global, but not because dealers have an international presence," he says. "It would be very rare that they do."
Instead, he says, global AV product sales grow in response to demands of the business environment.
"When our dealers sell to a client in New York, they don't just want one boardroom controlled or automated, they want 1,000 boardrooms controlled and networked together so they have access to resources wherever they are globally," Singer says.
Lemke points out another phenomenon. When a multinational company, working with its own systems integrator from "home," opens or upgrades its facilities in a region, other, more local clients often want to match the multinational's resources.
Manufacturers, for instance, "may go in and serve the multinational client, and then around that grows a local business as well, with local companies imitating the multinationals," Lemke says. "Now we're starting to see the development of local systems integrators and consultants."
SPL doesn't have its own offices overseas yet, although Douglas says the company is looking into the possibility.
One company with locations around the world is Minneapolis-based AV systems integrator Electrosonic, which recently opened an office in Shanghai and has sites in London, Hong Kong, and elsewhere. The company's international project portfolio includes museums, universities, theme parks, control rooms, and high-end corporate installations.
Company CEO Robert Simpson says opening an office in any foreign market is a big jump. "There's quite a lot of up-front commitment," he says. "You can't realistically do it without about a half dozen people, perhaps $1.5 million per location."
Costs include rent, utilities, sales expenses, and salaries. "It's even more expensive if you use expats," Simpson says, referring to "expatriots," or home-office employees relocated overseas. "Then you have to house them as well as pay their salaries."
Simpson admits the model Douglas cites, of using existing relationships and contracts to open overseas markets, is ideal. "But the ideal circumstance doesn't always come off," he cautions.

With the end of spring break comes the beginning of my students' explorations in narrative identity. For the past 10 weeks, they have contributed to the #WalkMyWorld project and their blogs; both have given them opportunities to express, understand, and even struggle with the concept of self through their writing. In first-year composition (FYC), I've often felt that students struggle more with integrating their internalized, evolving perspectives into their writing than with basic grammar. My class has heard me say on more than one occasion, "I'd rather have a poorly written response on a profound topic than a perfectly constructed response on a stagnant topic." Of course I'd prefer both, but teaching grammar is much easier than teaching narrative identity, so we spend more time on the latter.
What is narrative identity?
McAdams & McLean (2012) define narrative identity as
a person's internalized and evolving life story, integrating the reconstructed past and imagined future to provide life with some degree of unity and purpose.
This stated unity and purpose serve as an elevated reason for students to form unique perspectives when responding to texts. Using past events, present perceptions, and imagined future outcomes, student writers are taught to view writing as a story which is on-going and all-encompassing. Their identity is shaped because of a story that has been unfolding continuously, and understanding where they do or do not reside within this narrative helps them identify their identity.
Why teach narrative identity?
If you have students that know how to work the academic writing system (i.e. form a thesis, develop five paragraphs, plug-in generic support) then narrative identity is missing from their writing repertoire, and understandably so. Unfortunately, education propagates cookie cutter academic writing; we are rewarding robotic retorts. This is a travesty for the function of writing as an act of art. If we do not encourage narrative explorations, student writers will continue to push the boulders of monotony through the hallways of education, and as much as some instructors would be satisfied with this status quo, focusing on narrative identity development will teach redemptive qualities that will surpass the time allotted to a degree plan.
In several studies (check out Baumberg's (2010) "Who am I? Narration and its contribution to self and identity") scholars have noted the importance of psychological adaptation and development in pedagogical practices when student narrative identity is questioned. For example, relating reading and writing to student-self (How does this text relate to me?) has a stronger impact than teaching writing as a process (informative, persuasive, compare and contrast, etc.). Student writers who find redemptive meanings in thematic readings, and who construct narratives of exploration, tend to enjoy higher levels of class engagement and maturity with topics.
Visit my classroom during any of the student-led discussions and you will see student-self exploration in practice. (Yes, I am tooting my students' horns.) They enjoy narrative exploration when it is self-driven, and they respond in writing with a vividness that is often lacking when instructors select topics. Because narrative identity is emphasized, lack of topic generation among writers is void, as is the dullness often associated with English Composition 101.
In short, students enjoy reading things that are relatable, and don't we all? Let student writers read and respond to texts that ask them the important questions in life: Who am I? and What do I have to say to the world? In the end, these points of narrative identity inquiry are far more important than learning the placement of a comma.

Becki of Manteca, California, writes:
Hi Peter: You answered my questions about my Select Comfort adjustable bed & you suggested a Sealy Plush Beachside mattress to fit in the adjustable frame. I just want to make sure that this would be the best choice for me...I am a widow & I don't have any extra money for a new mattress...I am facing a complete spinal fusion, as well as a complete fusion of my neck, and then shoulder surgery in the next couple of months. I really could use a bed w/hi-lo feature but I definitely can't afford that & I will have to just get the new mattress. How much is delivery to California & do the guys put the new mattress in the bed frame, as I am not able to do anything like that? I sure do appreciate your kind advice. I will wait to hear from you! Thank you!
Hi Becki. Delivery to you is free and there's no sales tax. Add only $50 for the white glove service, which includes: unpacking the mattress, placing it on your bed, and removal of all the packing material.
It takes a week or so, to have one freshly made and another week or so to get it to you. We like to figure on 3 weeks, all in all.
If you'd like to place that order, just call us toll free at 1-888-732-5923
Or, you can order via email...email@example.com

Ok, so as you all know already I was able to get my ex boyfriend back and while I have given some bits and pieces of what I did and didn't do I wanted to do a post today giving you seven easy steps that anyone can follow which are almost guaranteed to work!
Just keep in mind, if you know exactly what to do you stand a great chance of getting your ex boyfriend back!
Get My Ex Boyfriend Back - Step 1
This first step is going to sound strange but you really need to decide whether you even want your ex boyfriend back. Are you feeling pain because you are in love and want him back or are you just scared of being alone? If you are sure you want your ex boyfriend back then you can continue on with the next few steps.
Get My Ex Boyfriend Back – Step 2
Spend some time reflecting back on why you broke up in the first place. Do you remember what exactly he said when you broke up? What kind of signs was he displaying in the days leading up to your break up? Did he indicate you were too clingy or maybe that you had in some way let yourself go? Was he hinting at wanting you to change? That last one is especially important because if he wants you to change you need to decide whether you are willing to change. I was lucky because I was able to get my ex boyfriend back without having to change much at all.
Get My Ex Boyfriend Back - Step 3
Under no circumstance should you bug him. Sometimes we feel like we need to show our ex boyfriends how much we love them to get them back but do not text or call him a bunch of times or you run the risk of screwing your chances up. Instead, allow him some space so he can miss you. It allows him to evaluate his life without you and this is often when he will start to miss you the most. Now, if you attend the same school this doesn't mean you should go out of your way to avoid him but certainly don't chase him down.
Get My Ex Boyfriend Back – Step 4
Whenever a relationship ends the one of the first things that goes through girl's heads is how to make their ex boyfriend jealous. Its tempting to flirt with his friends for example but more likely it will just make him angry and he might even think you're acting slutty. Its better to stay clear of these types of manipulation.
Get My Ex Boyfriend Back - Step 5
Try playing hard to get. The last thing you want is for him to think all he has to do is wiggle his finger and you'll come running. After all guys love the chase so by all means give it to him.
Get My Ex Boyfriend Back - Step 6
Don't involve friends especially mutual ones. Often times we want to send a friend as a go between to find out what our guy if feeling or thinking. This is a bad idea as it really annoys most guys and could even make him feel uncomfortable if he is trying to explain how he feels to someone other than you. This is one mistake I made when I was trying to get my ex boyfriend back and it almost blew up in my face.
Get My Ex Boyfriend Back – Step 7
This is going to be the toughest one but should your ex boyfriend choose to date another girl do not be overly concerned. In most cases these rebound relationships are short lived anyway. I know it is tough but make yourself everything he could want in a girl. Get gorgeous, be fun, be happy, etc and soon he'll leave his good time girl on the curb and come running back to you. Only this time, you're going to have a little more control because he came calling not the other way around.
Now, girls, I'm not a relationship counselor and I didn't start inventing all these techniques on my own. Quite the contrary, I actually grabbed a copy of Seduce Your Ex by Jason Collins to get my ex boyfriend back. I thought I'd heard it all until I read this guide.

An opulant restored theater from the 1920's, it is a favorite of Sebastian's. He covertly supports an annual Halloween showing there of his favorite silent movies, accompanied by a full orchestra and theater organ.
A nature preserve on the edge of town, it is the main gathering point of the Garou.
Built in the 1920s, this hotel is connected to the Embassy Theater. It was once the favored businessman's hotel in the center of the city, and has several internal suites without windows.
Where once there was a major manufacturing plant, is now a throbbing nightspot. Stacks of speakers three stories high blast out ear-deafening techo, trance, and dance music into a cavernous former factory. The floor is oil-stained and covered with sawdust, the atmosphere reeks of grease, smoke, sweat, and sex, and the crowd loves it. A perfect place for arranging illegal activities of any kind.
A major Node dedicated to the Celestial Chorus, the tall spire of the white marble Cathedral stands out both in the daylight and through spotlights at night. The entire block is suffused with Quintessence, and any vampire so much as stepping foot onto the block would suffer as though they had stepped into sunlight. [Use the standard daylight damage chart, modified by the amount of Humanity a character has: Fortitude will soak these wounds.]
There is a small museum of relics associated with the cathedral: it is rumored that a holy artifact is stored there.
A vacant lot, except it holds a ghost of a church, and its ghostly pastor, Father McDowell.
The Three Rivers (a confluence of two rivers, the St. Marys and the Maumee, forming the St. Joseph) Cairn is actually three cairns, located on the shores around the confluence. Ownership of the cairns is divided among the two dominant Garou tribes, the Fianna and the Glass Walkers: the Fiana control the northern cairn, the Glasswalkers control the eastern cairn, and control of the third is the subject of annual competitions between the two tribes: currently the Fianna have had control for the past four years, and the Glass Walkers are beginning to become angry at the perceived dominance of the smaller numbered tribe and are considering taking the cairn by force.
Lately, through its contacts in the Army Corps of Engineers, Pentex has been stripping trees from the riverbanks along the confluence, trying to locate or destroy the cairns. So far they have been unsuccessful.
The cairns seem to be connected with a mystical Node that is centered around the confluence of the rivers itself, and the Quintenessence from the rushing waters is being collected and transfered somewhere, but no one knows where.
A Mage of the Akashic Brotherhood, Wendell tends sushi bar at a small Japanese restaurant. He performs many of the customary duties of a regular bartender, however, including acting as a confidant and advisor.
The "prince" of the city is Sebastion, a Ninth Generation Ventrue. He generally refuses to take an active role in the actual ruling of the city, having spent so much time in the city under the Ban.
A phantom, a shadow, a whisp of air, and a mocking voice. Jeremy is a Malkavian who has never been seen. He uses his mastery of Obfuscate to hide himself from all sight, and generally wanders the city, keeping an eye out for anyone who might be amusing to annoy. He particularly like to annoy supernatural beings, especially newcomers to the city.
(Although all the vampires of the city, and even Sebastion, think that Jeremy is a vampire, Jeremy is actually a wraith.)
Tough as old leather and just as brown, Toothgnasher is the shaman who rides herd on the tensions between the two Garou tribes. Despite his shaman's powers, he is still capable of knocking flat most any of the young bucks who try to challenge his authority or disrupt the peace.
Father McDowell died in an automobile crash near Our Lady of Mercy Catholic Church. He was quite surprised when he found himself haunting the church, and he suffered an almost complete loss of faith because of it. It was only when the church itself had been torn down (to make a parking lot) but returned as a ghostly cathedral on nights of the full moon that he accepted his fate. Now he serves as a confessor to any restless spirits who approach.

[1379] Utility of Flow Cytometric Immunophenotyping Analysis in Bone Marrow Staging of Patients with Mantle Cell Lymphoma after Therapy
W Liu, LJ Medeiros, JL Jorgensen. MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX
Background: Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a B-cell neoplasm characteristically associated with CCND1 translocation. Most patients present with lymphadenopathy with frequent bone marrow (BM) involvement at time of diagnosis. Less is known about MCL in BM after therapy. Persistence or relapse of MCL in BM is traditionally defined by morphologic (M) detection of disease. However, in a subset of patients we have observed flow cytometric (FC) evidence of MCL in the BM in the absence of M evidence supporting involvement. The goal of this study was to evaluate the utility of FC immunophenotyping in the re-staging of patients with MCL after therapy.
Design: 100 patients with MCL who were treated with chemotherapy and had subsequent BM examination (median interval, 3 months; range 1 to 6) formed the study cohort. BM aspirate samples were assessed by FC using the following panel of antibodies: CD5, CD10, CD19, CD20, CD38, FMC7, and surface Igκ and Igλ.
Results: The median survival time (calculated in months starting from initial treatment date) was 90 months. 27 patients had M and/or FC evidence of persistent/relapsed MCL involving a total of 57 BM specimens. In 39/57 (68.4%) specimens from 19 patients, both M and FC evidence of MCL were identified. By contrast, BM involvement was detected only by FC analysis in 18/57 (31.6%) specimens from 8 patients. Clinical follow up on this group was as follows: 5 (62.5%) patients developed subsequent M relapse in the BM (median 3 months, range 2 to 24 months); 2 (25%) patients had concurrent lymph node relapse; 1 (12.5%) had no relapse clinically or in BM followup specimens. There were no patients who had M evidence of MCL without FC concordance. The percentage of monoclonal B cells identified by FC was higher in patients with M evidence of MCL compared with patients who only had FC evidence (mean, 8.67% versus 1.17%). In a subset of patient specimens in which disease was only detected by FC, a cyclin D1 immunostain was performed but the results did not contribute substantially to improving the sensitivity.
Conclusions: FC is clearly more sensitive in cases with a low percentage of monoclonal B-cells and is therefore the more powerful tool to assess the effectiveness of high-dose chemotherapy. Significantly, nearly all patients with MCL detected by FC eventually developed clinical relapse or morphologically evident BM relapse. In our experience, one cannot confidently establish the presence of MCL using M criteria when the percentage of monoclonal B-cell by FC is less than 5%.

NEAF Board
Prof. Alison V.G. Betts (Acting Director)
Teaching staff
Teaching and research interests: I am interested in the archaeology and history of nomadic peoples. This research theme has led me down a wide variety of paths including the prehistory of the North Arabian steppe, rock art, hunting traps and water harvesting systems, the origins of nomadic pastoralism in the Near East, nomad-state relations, the Bronze Age of Central Asia and the early development of the Zoroastrian faith.
Dr John Tidmarsh (President)
Teaching and research interests: John Tidmarsh is an Endocrinologist in Private Practice and Visiting Endocrinologist at Bankstown-Lidcombe Hospital. He was previously Tutor and then Part-Time Lecturer in the Department of Archaeology at the University of Sydney and is currently President of the Near Eastern Archaeology Foundation of that University. He is a Co-Director of the University of Sydney's excavations at Pella in Jordan and is also part of the ANU/University of Melbourne excavations at Jebel Khalid in Syria. He has previously excavated in Greece and Cyprus. His main areas of interest are the archaeology of Alexander the Great's conquests and the Hellenistic Period in the Near East and Asia and it was in this area that he was awarded his PhD. He has led a number of tours for the Art Gallery of NSW to Syria, Jordan, Turkey, and Greece as well as tours to Turkey and Iran for University of Sydney's Centre for Continuing Education and Academy Travel.
Dr Stephen Bourke (Treasurer)
Research associate/adjunct
Teaching and research interests: Stephen is a Near Eastern archaeologist and has worked on numerous international archaeological projects since 1980. He currently directs Sydney University excavations at Pella in Jordan, and has done so since 1992. The most recent field season occurred in early 2013. Previously he led four seasons of renewed excavations at Chalcolithic Teleilat Ghassul, Jordan, between 1994-99. His interests centre on the Neolithic beginnings of urban life through to the end of the pre-Classical Iron Age in the Levant (ca. 6500-300 BC). He has written or contributed to over 50 publications. Current research projects include work arising out of ongoing excavations at Pella, mainly centring on the massive Fortress temple complex, under excavation since 1994. He is completing a monograph on Sydney University work at Chalcolithic Teleilat Ghassul and working on another based on his Doctoral work on British excavations at Tell Nebi Mend, ancient Qadesh on the Orontes. Connected with this earlier work, he is now researching the Second Millennium BC settlement history of the Homs region for the University of Durham's central Syrian Homs regional Survey. Stephen is NEAF's Treasurer.
Dr Wendy Reade (Vice President)
Teaching staff, Administrative staff
Teaching and research interests: I have degrees in Archaeology and Conservation of Cultural Materials and combine this background with a passion for promoting scientific analysis of archaeological materials and objects. I teach the unit ARNE 2601 Egyptian Archaeology. I am an archaeological conservator with wide experience in the Middle East, having worked on excavations in Bahrain, Jordan, United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Turkey and Syria. My PhD investigated ancient Near Eastern and Egyptian glass, in particular the evolution of technology from the earliest glass of the Bronze Age through the innovation and continuity seen in the ensuing Iron Age. I am Vice-President of the Near Eastern Archaeology Foundation at the University.
Ben Churcher
Teaching and research interests: Ben Churcher is a life member of NEAF, the editor of the Bulletin of the Near Eastern Archaeology Foundation and a NEAF tour leader. Ben's involvement with NEAF coincided with his participation at the University of Sydney's excavations at Pella in Jordan where he presently holds the position of Field Director. Ben's duties at Pella began in 1983 and include excavation, photography and on-site administration. From the early 1990s Ben has been both the editor of NEAF's Bulletin and a tour leader who has taken NEAF members to destinations as diverse as China, Mexico, Morocco, Mali, Iran, Greece, Turkey, Syria and Jordan. As well as his involvement with the Pella project and NEAF, Ben is the director of Astarte Resources (www.astarte.com.au), a company that produces and distributes educational resources primarily focusing on history and archaeology. Additionally, Ben is involved with cultural heritage management in Australia and has participated on many Indigenous heritage surveys and excavations. Ben also works in desk-top publishing; preparing publications emanating from the Pella Project and other Australian archaeological projects working in the Near East. Ben enjoys travel to remote corners of the world, is fascinated by all aspects of history and is particularly interested in Islamic culture. Ben is married to Rachel Jackson (head illustrator for the Pella Project) and they have two children, Isabel and Lucas.
Dr Ross Burns
Teaching and research interests: Ross was a career officer of the Department of Foreign Affairs for 37 years. In that time he had a range of overseas postings and served as Ambassador to several Middle Eastern countries.
Since his retirement in 2003, Ross retains a keen interest in all aspects of the Middle East, not least its history and archaeology: the subjects that first drew his attention to the region at Sydney University in the early 1960s where he combined archaeology (Near Eastern) with history. He recently completed a doctorate at Macquarie University and has published two books on the history and monuments of Syria (Monuments of Syria, I B Tauris, London, third edition 2009; and on Damascus: Damascus; A History, Routledge, London 2005). He hopes to publish soon his thesis as a book and to follow up his earlier works with companion volumes on Lebanon and a history of Aleppo. His website www.monumentsofsyria.com contains a rich store of photos of archaeological sites in Syria.
Ms Maree Browne
Teaching and research interests: Maree is past president of NEAF and has been on the Council since its inception. She studied Archaeology at the University of Sydney and has worked on a number of sites, principally at the University of Sydney's site at Pella in Jordan. In the past her main area of research was in the archaeology of the ancient environment and its effect on the disease patterns in the ancient populations, particularly Egypt. This research into the environment has led to a great interest in water usage and gardens through time. She lectures in The History of Landscape Architecture in the Faculty of the Built Environment at the University of NSW.
Dr Paul Donnelly
Teaching and research interests: Dr Paul Donnelly is a curator in the design and society department at the Powerhouse Museum. His more than twenty years at the Museum have seen his responsibilities meander to embrace Australian ceramics and glass, antiquities of Europe and the Mediterranean region, numismatics, and 20th century furniture. While a broad range, he nevertheless sees vigour and many positives in the diversity of media and depth of historical range over which his research and responsibilities span. This breadth has been useful when he has acted Principal Curator Collections & Access over the last couple of years.
Paul graduated with a BA (Hons) in archaeology from the University of Sydney, an MA in Public History from the University of Technology of Sydney, and a PhD from Sydney University which focused on Chocolate-on-White ware pottery from the Middle to Late Bronze-Age southern Levant. Since 1988 Paul has been a member of the Sydney University Expedition to Pella in Jordan and in 2012 he involved the Powerhouse in the revived and on-going Zagora excavations on Andros. Paul is an Honorary Research Associate of the Department of Archaeology and represents the Powerhouse Museum on the AAIA Council.
Dr Kate da Costa
Teaching and research interests: Kate held an ARC research fellowship and grant from 2006 – 2010 to study the Roman Borders of Arabia and Palaestina (BAP), involving field work in northwest Jordan. This followed from undergraduate and doctoral interests working at Pella (University of Sydney), Umm Qais (various German projects) and Deir Ain Abata (British Museum). Kate taught two courses during her fellowship - Greek Cities and Sanctuaries/Ancient Mediterranean Lives and a new course, The Archaeology of the Roman East. Kate has a longstanding interest in the relationship of indigenous cultures with foreign political controllers. Kate is currently developing a new project, based on sites found during the Borders of Arabia and Palaestina project - Underground 'Ajloun, focussing on sites in northern Jordan containing underground houses.

Higher education and income levels are associated with increased willi
Research Activities, September 2009, No. 349
Higher education and income levels are associated with increased willingness to pay for a psoriasis cure
Psoriasis is a chronic, incurable skin disease. It can affect patients' quality of life with symptoms that range from red, scaly patches on the skin to swollen, stiff joints when it is accompanied by arthritis. A new study from Harvard Medical School finds that 90 percent of patients report that their psoriasis causes physical discomfort with pain, itching, burning, or stinging. These patients also indicate a willingness to pay from $500 to $5,000 for a cure for these symptoms.
The disease can also take an emotional and social toll on patients. More than 80 percent reported their psoriasis made them anxious, depressed, or uncomfortable shaking hands with people. These patients indicated a willingness to pay an average of $1,000 for a cure. Individuals with high household incomes and high education levels often reported they were willing to pay high amounts for a cure. By measuring a willingness to pay, the researchers believe they can generate quantitative quality of life data. In turn, this information can help physicians better understand how diseases like psoriasis affect their patients' quality of life and can be used in therapeutic decisionmaking. A larger study is needed to validate this willingness-to-pay research method, which was conducted with 40 patients with psoriasis. This study was funded by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (HS14010).
See "Willingness-to-pay stated preferences for 8 health-related quality-of-life domains in psoriasis: A pilot study," by Matthew Delfino, Jr., M.B.A., Elizabeth W. Holt, M.P.H., Charles R. Taylor, M.D., and others in the September 2008 Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology 59(3), pp. 439-447.

I have changed the overall theme for the site to a more modern "curve" theme. It will be the one everyone uses from now on, you will not be able to alter it on your own. It will make things a whole lot easier for me to maintain.THNXthe Management
So funny- I did the 3rd ascent of HTH and it seemed fine- Trust me I was barely 9+ leader. This may lead to the ""popular" thread which is BS
We're going around in circles. We already have established that a route can be deemed "popular" because it gets done a lot (i.e. Parking Lot wall routes at Rumney) or because it is aspired to be done a lot but is typically a once in a life time thing. Hopefully this crowd goes by the mostly by the second criteria and doesn't advocate bolting things into submission so they fall into the first category.
A route is not "popular" because it is a "once in a life time thing". That, my friend, is a "rarity".
I'm not sure "dumbed down" is really a good term to use for adequately protecting routes when using fixed gear. One could readily make the argument that to bolt a route and leave huge dangerous fall potential is an act of "dumbness".

Coptic Service held in St. Margaret's, Westminster
To mark the Coptic Feast of Nayrouz and the start of the new Coptic Year 1729, the service of Offering of Evening Incense was held at St. Margaret's Westminster on 30 October. Presided over by Bishop Angaelos, assisted by Abba Seraphim, it was also attended by priests from the Coptic Orthodox, British Orthodox, Eritrean Orthodox, Indian Orthodox and Syrian Orthodox Churches. Representing the Byzantine family of Orthodox Church were Archbishop Gregorios of Thyateira, Archimandrite Deiniol (Ukrainian Orthodox – Ecumenical Patriarchate)and Father Joseph Skinner (director of Inter Orthodox Relations – Russian Orthodox Diocese of Sourozh). The Catholic Church was represented by Bishop Alan Hopes, Auxiliary Bishop of Westminster, and Father Robert Byrne, National Ecumenical Officer. The Anglican Church was represented by the Bishop of Southwark (Right Rev'd Christopher Chessun), the Right Rev'd John Stroyan (Suffragan Bishop of Warwick) and Right Rev'd David Hamid (Suffragan Bishop of Europe). Before the service commenced Canon Jonathan Goodall, the Archbishop of Canterbury's Personal Chaplain & Ecumenical Secretary, read a message from the Archbishop, who is currently in New Zealand and everyone present was welcomed by Canon Andrew Tremlett, Rector of St. Margaret's.
At the end of the service the Right Hon. Alistair Burt, M.P., Parliamentary Under-Secretary for Foreign Affairs and the Right Hon. John Bercow, M.P. Speaker of the House of Commons, both gave short addresses welcoming the celebration and speaking of the increasingly significant contribution made in the UK by the Coptic community. A drinks reception concluded the evening.
Archbishop Elisey's birthday celebration
On 1 August Father Peter Farrington represented Abba Seraphim (who was out of the country at the time) at a Festive Reception to mark the fiftieth birthday of His Eminence Archbishop Elisey of Sourozh, the diocesan of the Russian Orthodox Church in Great Britain. This was held at The Cavalry & Guards Club in Piccadilly, London, and was hosted by the Trustees of the Diocese of Sourozh.
A Chopin Recital by Nelly Akopian-Tamarina, the distinguished Russian pianist, who studied at the Moscow Conservatoire under the legendary Alexander Boroisovich Goldenweise was followed by a celebratory dinner. Among the distinguished guests were H.R.H. Prince Michael of Kent, Archbishop Innokenty, the previous hierarch responsible for the Russian Orthodox Church in the British Isles, His Eminence Archbishop Gregorios of Thyateira and the Ambassadors of Belorussia and the Ukraine.
Father Peter offered congratulations to Archbishop Elisey on behalf of Abba Seraphim and the British Orthodox Church, and was especially pleased to be able to meet Father John Chapman, the Bishop of London's Chaplain for International Churches, and Father Benedict Ramsden of the Russian Orthodox Church.

Every time Sports Chart of the Day creates a chart that ranks something it looks like this:
What bothers me over and over again is that they are trying to communicate a rank, yet they rank the data low to high. Why?
In addition, they always use column charts instead of a bar charts, which forces me to turn my head sideways. Ok, one more thing. The source article is centered on the Lakers, so COTD used the Lakers colors. Cute? I think not. I'd say chart junk.
I'd go with a simple bar chart like this. Yes, it's a bit taller, but you can at least read it without needing to go to the chiropractor afterwards.
But why stop there? There's more data available then just franchise values. Check out this interactive viz I built with Tableau.
There are two vizzes to check out. The NBA Franchise Values viz allows you to:
- Choose the data you want to view for two charts
- Provides the ability to sort these two chart by any data point
- Creates a scatter plot that compares the two data points you chose in step 1
- Allows you to pick a data point to size the teams by in the scatter plot
The Value & Debt Rankings viz is a heat map of the rank of each team across the different data points. The article and data only provide the rank based on current value, but I was interested in the rank across all of the data points. I used the INDEX() function in Tableau to create a rank for each field, then used the Advanced calculation to specify the field to rank. Thus I can have a rank field for each data point.
While the article stresses the rise in franchise values, what they neglect to address is the heavy debt load on many teams. For example, the New Orleans Hornets are currently valued at $285M, yet they carry $299M in debt. Compare that to the Knicks and Clippers who carry no debt. Now THAT is the way to run a franchise.

Oct 1st 2010 4:14PM Well, I also found whom I believe is the love on my life through wow too, but I don't think he's completly wrong on putting aside meeting someone in a mmorpg or in "real life".
As I believe, when you meet someone online you miss on:
- Phisical appereance and clothing choices. It's vain and superficial, but those secondary aspects of a relation are still there, and can mean a lot of extra luggage. Booty call with a girl who's has some tattoos? No problem. Having your entire family hate her for it? Problem.
- Gestures & tone of voice (some may argue vent, and I'd go for it, but that's not every single case).
And that leaves me with what you'll miss the most, and the main reason I wouldn't advice anyone on following my example and working on a relationship you've met online:
Communication. Those gestures and different tones of voice mean a LOT, the actual words you say lose a lot of context without them. And you can't solve that with "=P" or "=S".

Re: Man Wins Big Money in Tablesaw Lawsuit
Infuriating. I'm sure the sole holder of the patent on "flesh detecting technology" is cheering the verdict.
Sawstop has lobbied to legislate mandatory use of their system at many levels, including they be a required feature on all saws sold in this country and, having failed that, required use in all school wood shops. Such obviously self-serving tactics are "unsavory" to say the least. Imagine a school shop outfitted with all Sawstop table saws. Now imagine a bunch of teenage boys when they learn that all they have to do is touch the SIDE of the blade to see this really cool mechanism in action! Every Sawstop would be out of commission within a day.
I would never buy a Sawstop product because of their sleezy marketing/lobbying tactics. I have also dissuaded three saw buyers (that I know of) from purchasing a Sawstop when I told them of their practices. I hope this bad press spreads like wild fire.

We also have a problem. Our 22 yr.old son who's high functioning autistic has his very first girlfriend. He
has his own apartment, she lives with her parents. They want them to get married but due to the fact that she does nothing but sit on the couch,We told him we could no longer support their relationship until she learns some living skills. Well now her Mother won't talk to us nor will she allow her daughter to talk to us and now she's alienating my son from us.We're thinking about sueing her for Alienation of Affection but don't know if that's possible. He's chosen them over us and we're the ones that take care of his needs. We don't think we can get Guardinship just because he's making bad decissions.please excuse spelling. |
Follow-Up Postings:
What's her situation, is she autistic? Why doesn't she have any living skills. You've done what every parent is warned not to do, interfere with a relationship and give an ultimatum, of course he's chosen her over you, what exactly did you expect him to do. Quiet suggestions to your son and her parents and a genuine willingness to make this work would have been much more effective. You can't sue, he's an adult, and you've alienated his affections, not her. You can apologize, and work with your son, his girlfriend (and her family), to support them and help them succeed in their lives. |

Our SnackBot is based around the Electric Imp, a hardware, software and cloud-based platform that makes it easy to connect just about anything to the Internet. If you are new to Electric Imp, you can check out our Instructables on Getting Started With the Electric Imp, which will guide you through the process of getting your imp online and running some basic code.
This project involves a bit of soldering (and desoldering), and should take you about 2-3 hours to complete!
Let's get started!
Step 1: Parts & Supplies
- 1 x Brookstone SnackManTM
- 1 x Electric Imp Card
- 1 x April Breakout Board
- 1 x NFET
- 1 x Diode
- 1 x 10KΩ (oh higher) resistor
You are also going to need some tools:
- Philips Screwdriver
- Soldering Iron
- Solder
- Foam Tape (or other adhesive)
- An iPhone or Android Phone
Thanks for any suggestion.
Does your imp turn on when it's plugged into the SD socket (it should 'click' in) and you turn the power knob? It should start blinking orange if it's a brand new imp.
now is ok!! The Nfet was wrong : was a IRF510PBF and not a IRLB8721PBF, so I changed to the last one and now is worked very fine.
Thank you

School community battles imaginary-grenade backlash as Peter Boyles alleges a coverup
Update: Yesterday, we interviewed school board member Denise Montagu, who criticized the press for hyping the tale of Alex Evans, seven, who was allegedly suspended from Loveland's Mary Blair Elementary for pretending to throw a grenade; read it below. But even as the school's PTO plans twin rallies tomorrow, KHOW's Peter Boyles is arguing that what Montagu characterizes as a bogus story was legit -- and the subject of a coverup.Pics, videos below.
On February 1, as we've reported, Alex's mom, Mandie Watkins, says Alex was engaged in superhero role playing when he was seen hurling an imaginary grenade at a made-up box with "something evil inside." She further claims that Mary Blair's principal, Valerie Lara-Black, called to tell her Alex had been suspended for his actions, which reportedly violated a series of "absolutes" posted on the school's website. The list of verboten activities is said to have spotlighted violent or aggressive behavior, whether real or fantasy.
Watkins soon went public with the incident, prompting a media frenzy that received attention nationwide. Before long, the school pulled down its website, supposedly because of online attacks and threats from across the country, but otherwise declined comment. But last Friday, the Thompson School District superintendent broke his silence, saying Alex had actually been suspended for throwing real rocks, not a fictional device. In addition, questions were raised about the credibility of Watkins, who has a sizable criminal record that includes a guilty plea for false reporting, prompting by a fire at her Greeley home and her insistence that she and her family were saved by a dog.Alex Evans.
This version of events is being reinforced by two rallies at Mary Blair tomorrow -- one at 8 a.m., the second at 3:20 p.m. According to Travis Bauer, chair of the Mary Blair parent-teacher organization, the timing was chosen so teachers could join parents, students and others in Loveland to voice their support for the school, and to counteract the backlash prompted by the story.
"There's been an incredible amount of hate directed toward the teachers in the school," Bauer says. "So we want the community to know we're here for the kids, we're here for the teachers, and we're not going to let our community be dictated by people outside it. We need to take charge of our own school and our own community and decide for ourselves what we're about."Mary Blair Elementary.
Not everyone has abandoned Watkins, however. Indeed, KHOW's Boyles believes he has proof that Mary Blair is involved an elaborate scheme to shift blame for the Alex suspension. He points at two screen captures of the still-down Mary Blair website -- one reportedly from just after the suspension, and another a couple of days later. In the first, there's no link to the list of "absolutes," as you can see here.
In the second, though, the "absolutes" link can be seen:
To Boyles, on whose program I took part this morning, these images show that Mary Blair had no real justification for suspending Alex in the first place beyond extreme political correctness, only cooking up the "absolutes" list afterward to deflect criticism, but inadvertently spurring more. He also surmises that the real reason the website was taken down was to prevent anyone from doing the sort of detective work his staff accomplished anyhow.
Boyles also cites a video made by Liberty Watch, a local organization whose Nancy Rumfelt spoke with us for our original post last week; it purports to demonstrate that there were no rocks for Alex to throw on the playground, thereby calling the school's assertions into question. Turns out, though, that another video shot by a Liberty Watch critic suggests that there are rocks aplenty in the vicinity. See both clips below.
As for Bauer, he's confident the website was shut down for the reason the school district says it was. "As soon as the story broke, and as soon as the story started to get national coverage, pretty much every teacher in the school got hate male," he maintains, noting that the site featured e-mail addresses and links that made it easy for angry people to launch multi-pronged attacks. "And the principal got bombarded with e-mails and phone calls, and she was threatened. That's something a lot of us who are close to the school are still struggling with. It's hard for us to wrap our heads around that."Travis Bauer.
Bauer adds that the Mary Blair PTO had to pull down its Facebook page because of Internet slams, too. As a result, most of the planning for tomorrow's rallies has had to be done by word of mouth. Still, he is hoping for a big turnout of people ready to turn the page rather than wallow in the past.
"Our focus isn't necessarily on what happened," he says, "but on who we are as a community at the school."
Continue for podcasts featuring Mandie Watkins and two videos -- one purporting to show that there were no rocks on the playground, and another asserting the opposite.

The phrase "project oversight exceptions" appears in 23 CFR 668.113(b)(1). This section should be revised to reflect restated policy.

I can fully admit it—I drink three, sometimes even four, Diet Cokes a day. We have a fridge full of them here at the Frisky office and my DC consumption is nothing compared to Amelia's—she perpetually has a small tribe of cans on her desk. So we were both a little concerned when we heard that many public health officials, including one group who just published an article in the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine, are calling for a soda tax. Apparently, the idea is picking up steam—53 percent of Americans think a soda tax is a good idea and Barack Obama recently said that he thinks we should be exploring one. "It's really a double-win," said Dr. David Ludwig, one of the authors of the New England Journal report. "We can raise much-needed dollars while likely reducing obesity prevalence, which is a major driver of health care costs. In terms of ways of raising that revenue, a tax on sugar sweetened beverages is really a no-brainer." [ABC News] Keep reading »

SAN DIEGO (AP) - The father of abducted and murdered Escondido teenager Amber Dubois is calling for laws that would enable authorities to respond more quickly when children are snatched off the streets.
Moe Dubois told the San Diego Union-Tribune Tuesday that he is working with lawmakers on a series of measures, mostly focused on search response. The package is expected to be unveiled on May 25.
Dubois also suggests that child sex predators be required to carry driver's licenses identifying them as such.
Fourteen-year-old Amber Dubois was missing for 13 months before her remains were found.
Convicted sex offender John Albert Gardner III pleaded guilty to killing Amber and 17-year-old Chelsea King. He's set to be sentenced next week to life in prison without parole.

Attributed to Cosmè Tura Italian, Ferrara, about 1470 - 1480 Tempera colors, gold leaf, and gold paint on parchment 13 3/4 x 11 3/4 in. MS. 94, VERSO
The isolated figure of John the Baptist is set against a harsh, minimal landscape. He points up toward heaven with a brittle finger and looks down reflectively toward the inhospitable earth. The Latin words on his winding scroll, taken from the Bible, explain the barren setting, Ego vox clamantis [in deserto] (I am the voice crying aloud in the wilderness). The cutting comes from a Franciscan gradual (the choir book containing the sung portions of the mass) illuminated by the important fifteenth-century Italian artist, Cosmè Tura, official court artist to the prominent Este family of Ferrara. Tura imbues the scene with a sense of palpable melancholy, not only through the sensitively rendered face of Saint John, but also through the stark landscape and muted colors of the miniature.
