Abstract: Statins, a group of potent inhibitors of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl Coenzyme A reductase in cholesterol biosynthesis pathway, have been widely used as a cholesterol lowering drug. The plieotrophic effect of statins on bone metabolism in long-term usage has been begun to be studied during recent years and several in vitro and in vivo studies have demonstrated the ability of statins to promote expression of bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2), inhibition of osteoclast differentiation and reduction of osteoporotic fractures risk. The high liver specificity and low oral bioavailability of statins, leading to poor peripheral distribution, are the main obstacles to benefit anabolic effects of hydrophobic statins on bone formation. Therefore, developing new administration roots for direct delivery to achieve optimum concentration in the bone microenvironment is of interest. Here we present and compare two approaches of combining statins with bone tissue engineering scaffolds. Simvastatin was combined with a poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) membrane scaffold for diffusion-controlled release by dissolving simvastatin (dis-sim) in the membrane casting dope, and for degradation-controlled release by covalently bonding saponifiedsimvastatin (sap-sim) to the PLGA in the spinning dope. Rheological and concentration-dependent membrane morphology changes were observed with saponifiedsimvastatin, suggesting ester bond cleavage and covalent bonding of the statin to the PLGA, but not with dissolved simvastatin. Dissolved simvastatin membranes showed a logarithmic decay release profile while the saponifiedsimvastatin membranes showed constant release. It can be concluded that the covalent bonding of simvastatinto PLGA scaffolds is showing potential for use as a controlled releasescaffold for bone tissue engineering.

Do I need to synchronize on data in my client GUIController method BookHotel?
I already synchronize on my low level class , FileIO which Data implements
public boolean bookHotel(long recNo, String custID, String hostname, String port) { //will store existing record recNo String[] existingRecord = null; long cookie = 0; if (connectMode == GUIController.ALONE) { DBAccess data = new Data(); synchronized(data) { try { existingRecord = data.readRecord(recNo); } catch (RecordNotFoundException rnfx) { GUIExceptionHandler.warning("Record " + recNo +" was not found"); return false; } if (BookingRules.isBooked(existingRecord)) { return false; } if (!BookingRules.isWithin48Hrs(existingRecord)) { return false; } // remove the recNo from first subscript and create a record // that the server can accept and use to update the db String [] record = new String[7]; for ( int i = 1; i < 7; i++ ) { record[i-1] = existingRecord[i]; } // place the customer id in the last subscript record[6] = custID; try { // locking the record cookie = data.lockRecord(recNo); } catch (RecordNotFoundException rnfEx) { return false; } try { // booking the hotel room data.updateRecord(recNo, record, cookie); } catch (SecurityException secEx) { return false; } catch (RecordNotFoundException rnfEx) { return false; } try { // unlocking the record data.unlock(recNo, cookie); } catch (SecurityException secEx) { return false; } } }

I don't synchronize at that level, the question to ask yourself is "what resource am I protecting from multiple accesses?". In my implementation only a single thread accesses a Data instance at a time. That thread is the thread that is performing actions for the client over the network.
All the syncronization is in the lower level objects that represents the database file and the lock manager.
I syncronize on the
instance to prevent problems where one thread moves the file pointer and another moves it elsewhere before it can read or write the data.
I also synchronize on the Map of locked resources and the Lock object that is waiting or being notified.
All this is carefully done to ensure that the order is always Map->Lock or Map->
, never the other way around, so there is no danger of deadlock.

Bill Berkowitz: The Newt of Gingrich Slogs OnQuicklink submitted by Sheila Samples Permalink,

the title of Gingrich's latest book To Save America: Stopping Obama's Secular-Socialist Machine (Regnery Press, May 2010), tells you all you need to know about how the former House Speaker is letting it all hang out these days. The message is vintage/throwback Gingrich: America needs conservatives to save it from 'Obama's secular-socialist regime.' Newt Gingrich is a conservative. Therefore, America needs Newt Gingrich. |

VietNamNet Bridge reports on what some subterranean scientists are calling "the find of the century."
[Editor's note: The following story comes from our editorial partner VietNamNet Bridge.]
VietNamNet Bridge — A team of British cavers recently announced record-breaking news: the discovery in Quang Binh Province of the largest cave in the world.
But the presence of the British team has eclipsed one very important figure in the story — 40-year-old Ho Khanh — a local man and guide for the expedition who says he first found the cave nearly 20 years ago, but lost it again.
Today the 40-year-old farmer mans a tea stall in a village on the edge of Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park. "I first found the cave 18 years ago, in 1991," he said.
"I was out collecting firewood near the national park. My family were very poor, so I decided to go deeper into the forest to try and find some aloe. The resin is used to make perfume and it's very valuable. Not many people went that far into the forest at the time because they were scared of the wild animals."
After walking for about 12 miles Khanh says he lost his way. Clouds started gathering in the sky, so he decided to look for shelter.
"I sat down with my back to a huge boulder. Then something strange happened. I heard the sound of a strong wind and running water coming from behind me.
"I was very surprised. I thought I knew many caves in this region, but this one was so different and seemed to be untouched by man. It was pitch black, but judging by the feeling of the air, I thought I was walking into a huge space. The strong wind blowing felt like something from the underworld."
With no ropes or lights, Khanh did not venture farther into the cave. A day after he'd first set out, he arrived back home.
"I didn't have any aloe, but in my mind I had the image of a great cave."
Khanh's story spread like wildfire, but not everyone believed him.
"I wanted to prove my word, but I couldn't remember the way to the cave. It was a wild place, with no human tracks."
Eventually, the story became legend. Khanh quit his dream of becoming rich from aloe and went back to doing his daily chores: collecting fire wood and farming. But he never gave up on the hope that one day he would find the cave again.
It wasn't until one morning in the early winter of 2006 that Khanh's cave dream was rekindled. A group of cavers from Britain, on a trip to find new caves in the Phong Nha – Ke Bang region, came to ask Khanh for help, as they had heard about his discovery 15 years before.

Rated by guests after their stay at Nerva Boutique Hotel.
The staff is extremely helpful and friendly whether its checking you in, giving directions and hints for where to go, making reservations for you at restaurants, or serving uo breakfast. And the location just behind the Imperial Forum and down the street from the Colosseum was just perfect for us.

location is right in the midst of classical roman monuments (forum across the street, scant blocks to coliseum); helpful and friendly staff; delicious breakfast and cappuccino every morning; beautiful and quiet room with seating area, free WiFi, tv, wall safe

The hotel was very clean and the staff was extremely helpful and attentive to our needs. The location was perfect! Although it was on a quaint side street the Colosseum was just around the corner!

The hotel is easy to find and close to the Coliseum and other ancient sites. My room was compact but comfortable. The staff were helpful and friendly and the breakfast was delicious and plentiful.

Hotel is in a great location. We arrived before the check-in time and to our surprise the room was ready. Not only could we check-in early but we were upgraded to a junior suite. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Great experience.
Staff where amazing, so helpful.. stepped out into Rome, hotel was so close to everything!!
Friendly staff, fantastic location, excellent breakfast and afternoon tea (free)
Super location.... friendly...... will come back.
WiFi difficult on 2 nd floor. but not a big problem
Perfect base for our 7 night stay in Rome. 5 min walk from Colosseo station. Room was good, with a very comfortable bed. Good breakfast, and free coffee and cake in afternoon after a hard day hiking the forum & Palatine hill.
Comfort, Decor and Staff were great. Very good value for money, they even arranged a free city tour for the guests with an excellent private guide.
Staff were friendly and attentive, the room was clean, well decorated and comfortable. The location is fantastic.. So close to the colosseum and other attractions:
Very friendly staff who told you local tips
Very small shower
The staff are amazing. Breakfast was wonderful and there wasn't enough they would not do for you. The hotel is in a terrific location, clean and welcoming.
Room size was a bit small but you expect this due to the location so no real complaints. I would have like some drawers for small clothing items, underwear etc.
This hotel was a great pick in Rome, location was superb and the rooms were very stylish and modern. Breakfast was amazing, served up to you, best breakfast I had in Europe. Staff were lovely
Wifi was a bit slow but very rarely.
The location was ideal and the staff were very friendly and helpful.
Small shower room, no bath and WiFi not good in bedroom
Words cannot describe how wonderful the location of Hotel Nerva was. It is in the upcoming Monti neighbourhood a fast growing swank, artistic area of town. Hotel Nerva is next to the forum and a few minute walk to the Coloseum. The staff at this Hotel are exceptional, kind, generous, happy and welcoming. Amazing breakfast and plenty of it - coffee/tea, buns, croissants, jams, cheese, hams, fresh fruits, orange juice, boiled egg - all served to you. Those wanting bacon and eggs should not travel anywhere in Europe and stay home. Free WiFi terrific. Flat tv but programs only in Italian - not that you want to waste away watching television when there is just too much to see. For an added touch they also provide high-tea at 4 pm.
Perfect boutique hotel with modern, chic rooms and excellent service in best location. Luxurious bedding and bathrooms and charming reception/breakfast area. Great staff, who make you feel genuinely welcome & feel at home!
Excellent location. Walking distance from all main attractions. A real person makes you coffee and breakfast is decent.
The bathroom clean but is not well designed. The space could have been better utilised. I got scraped by the towel rack while getting in and out of the shower and couldn't reach the heat rack behind the toilet. Too high for an average person.
Wonderful breakfasts - best we've had anywhere. Very helpful staff. Hotel was so close to the major sites that we were able to walk everywhere.
Very minor point - an additional chair in the room would have been useful but since we spent so little time in the room we didn't ask for one.
Almost everything.
There is no control over personal reading lights at the bedside. Also it would be nice to see some whole wheat bread at breakfast.
Location location location.! Good breakfast, clean comfortable room,helpful staff. Very good recommendation for restauart that I woukd never have found. Would definitely go back.
Nothing excep should have stayed longer.
Good location
Rooms were not good isolated from rumors. You can hear everything happening outside. Bathroom too small.
Hotel was ideally located in ancient Rome. From the hotel, we were able to walk everywhere! We even walked to the Vatican. The staff were extremely helpful and even offered a complimentary walking tour of ancient Rome on our arrival. This tour was excellent and the tour guide was so knowledgeable and we felt extremely lucky to have this on our first day in Rome. The breakfast was fabulous and the ladies that served us were amazing and took care of our every need. Cappucino, caffe latte, expresso, whatever you want! This was our last stop before we returned home and I can say it was the frosting on the cake!!!

NASA Ames Helps Kids Learn Math With Flight Controllers
Original post made by Angela Hey, Mountain View Voice Blogger, on Jun 2, 2010
The event was sponsored by NASA, the Silicon Valley Education Foundation (SVEF) and the Hispanic Foundation of Silicon Valley. Representing the Hispanic Foundation of Silicon Valley, former San Jose Mayor Ron Gonzales gave a heartfelt speech in which he said that although he'd grown up 2 miles from NASA he was never invited to visit the facility as a child. He reminded everyone of the great resources and opportunities that are available locally.
The children said they didn't have big screens to play on at school like they did at NASA. Muhammed Chaudhry, CEO of SVEF, inspired the class by telling the kids that he would see that the problem was fixed. (Note: if any businesses have fairly new computers with large flat screens that they want to donate, schools are a great cause).
Check out [Web Link the game] for yourself and play online using just your web browser.
When people talk about the crowded skies and I look up and see empty space, I now understand how the planes are scheduled. If you want insights into what an air traffic controller does, then it's worth trying the game. The air traffic controllers who attended had long years of service with the FAA. The training takes about 3 years, and includes a 3-month initial course at the FAA's training center, followed up by an apprenticeship on the job.

Bright Eyes
You never know which Conor Oberst is going to show up. Last spring at the Ogden, it was the recalcitrant hero, tiny and hidden behind his aren't-I-tortured bangs and a keyboard, reluctantly forging the indie electronica from Digital Ash in a Digital Urn, backed by members of the Faint. Then, of course, there's the larger-than-life garrulous guitar-slinger, swigging bottle after bottle and warming up the crowd with lines like "I'd put a fucking gun to my head before I'd live in your state" -- which Fort Worth was treated to earlier this year. But as any Bright Eyes devotee can tell you, it doesn't matter who appears -- the good, the bad or the ugly -- because the music speaks for itself. Sometimes it even has to apologize. Expect the more polite, folk-rocking Nebraska boy from I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning to be at the Boulder Theater this week -- well, at least on Tuesday night for a live e-town recording with Eliza Gilkyson.

As a third generation musician, I've been playing professionally and teaching for over 25 years. I've had years of private lessons, graduated from GIT in Hollywood, taken college music courses and continue to perform, record, and teach music. YOU can have fun, learning songs that YOU like, or you can learn music theory (the explanation of music) or study different styles from rock to pop to hard core to blues, funk etc. All at YOUR pace. Many of my students, started from the point where they had never picked up an instrument and have gone on to tour or earn full music scholarships. It doesn't matter if it's a young girl wanting to learn some Disney Artist or some burly blue collar worker wanting to learn some Clapton: YOU can have fun learning guitar while improving at a rapid rate.
As a vocal teacher I focus on the correct method to singing that helps keep your voice beautiful and healthy. I earned my bachelors degree in music education with an emphasis in vocals. I learned music appreciation, theory, history, choral singing and classical voice training. I love music and cannot picture life without it. Music is an expression of life! I also love to teach music to others as I feel I'm passing on a great gift. *** Lesson Details *** As a teacher I fall somewhere in between strict and laid back. For instance, if you don't practice I won't scold you, but I will remind you that you can only be as good as you work to be. If you don't want to put in the effort you will waste your time and money, as well as not receive the results that you were desiring. ...
ABOUT MYSELF I started late on the guitar in a family of musicians. I picked up the guitar when I was 18 years old when I found an old acoustic at my grandfather's house. From then I was self taught listening to Punk Rock, New Wave, and learning from friends. My love for the instrument and music drove me to really apply myself to really learning how to play. I would sit and just be creative, writing my own songs and putting little back yard bands together with my cousin and friends. Then, it was time for college and had to make a decision on what to study. Music was my passion and I never really taken a lesson before. I prepared myself by studying with Stephan Ferrara-Grand in San Clemente,CA for a short time to audition into the music program. I passed! I graduated with a Bachelor's ...

I crop 5x4 all the time. I tend to see scenes in three different aspect ratios. Normal 5x4, 1:1.618 (the "golden ratio", about 5x3), and 1:2.5 (classic pano, about 5x2). Because of this, it's much easier and cost effective to just use the one film size and crop as needed.
Not to mention the money you save by not buying a roll film back, and the weight you save by not having to carry a roll film back around with you (especially if you backpack).

Add a touch of the Southwest to a desktop or home decor with this magnificent miniature desert landscape of assorted cacti and succulents.
What's The Story? Most species of cacti are native to North America, South America and the West Indies. The life of a single cactus can range from 25 to 300 years!
When a friend or loved one passes away, many people want to send funeral flowers as a symbol of their love and a show of heartfelt condolences to the family and other mourners at the service. The options for funeral flowers include: arrangements for the casket, standing arrangements such as floral crosses or wreaths, as well as smaller baskets or arrangements. However, etiquette dictates what type of arrangement is appropriate as not all funeral flowers should be sent by anyone.
If you are not able to attend the funeral service, you can still send sympathy flowers to the family's home as all funeral flowers do not need to be at the service. The most common options for a sympathy gift to the home are a vase of beautiful flowers or a floral basket. Fruit baskets or gifts of gourmet food are also appreciated at the home of the family when they receive mourners.
No matter what type of funeral flowers you need, the expert Sympathy Advisors at 1-800-FLOWERS.COM® will be able to help you with selection and ordering, and they will arrange for delivery to the funeral service location or family home. All funeral flowers on 1-800-FLOWERS.COM are thoughtfully designed by their creative florists, and the designs include traditional flowers for the funeral service as well as more contemporary styles to have sent to the home of the family.

as much as I like ludger and the figure itself, I dont feel it fits the other figures of the tales of series....as some have mentioned the paint job aint perfect. and the figure feels off compaired to the others....I hope alter has him in their vision....and kratos...then my life is complete :D
AmiAmi A|B 5,780yen
View spoilerHide spoilerHis variant color ver. costed only 5,000 on Mandarake, lol
It's Agnes' syndrome. Though the quality is much better than SE's joke.
Mine is correct from afar, though paint flaws clearly appear upon closer inspection. Milla was much better. Now we need Alter to come and correct this.
I got mine today too, but he was painted pretty sloppily. The shading of his hands, arms and face are messed up and orange. Kinda disappointed, but maybe I'll come to love the figure the more I fall in love with Ludgers character, I guess.
Mine's like that, too!
There wasn't any painting issues on the figure I received.
The quality control should have been better even though it's a prize figure. :(
Took a very close look and...
Line of his mouth is way off
Buckles on his sides is off
Cross detail on back is off
Shoulder straps on front is off
Part of the left shoe is different color to the same part of other shoe.
Arms, hands, and neck have bad shading
and finally...
The necktie looks like something was spilt on it!! (resin? glue?)
This is very disappointing.
Are his legs hollow? lol
Might sell him too.. haven't decided yet, you can make me offers through pm. (I'm located in germany)

Rows of name-brand mattresses from Sealy, Simmons Beautyrest, Serta, and Tempur-Pedic entice customers to replace their worn pad for new bedding, such as a standard mattress, a fluffy pillowtop unit, or a memory foam piece that conforms to bodies.

"Could not have been an easier (or faster) experience. Great quality on the mattress!"

The Magic Of Behavioral Targeting: When Magic Becomes Information
by Larry Allen on Oct 30, 9:04 AM
Not all behavioral targeting is created equally. Many networks and publishers are touting behavioral in their marketing materials and the sad truth is, most of them have little experience with true behavioral and are simply remarketing to people who have arrived on the marketer's Web site or previously clicked on their ad. I admit this is a very powerful technique -- but it's only one piece of the behavioral puzzle.

New-Media Publishers Should Adopt Old-School Approach To Packaging Inventory
by Bill Reynolds on Oct 25, 1:46 PM
Must online publishers resign themselves to the commodity CPMs dictated by the network marketplace? Not necessarily. My suggestion is for online publishers to take their cue from their offline counterparts and package inventory in ways that can't be bought through other channels.

The Magic of Behavioral Targeting -- Optimization Approach #3
by Matthew Roche on Oct 23, 10:30 AM
Perhaps the most seductive -- and misunderstood -- form of optimization, behavioral targeting s really a refinement of targeting, or "rules based" optimization. The difference is that while targeting uses explicit segments, predictive models seek to discover rules within the data that are counterintuitive. Instead of
When the user has searched for 'TurboTax,' show this offer at this price,
the predictive model can look at prior searches and visits to pick the ideal offer.

Like Gentlemen
by Ari Rosenberg on Oct 18, 2:00 PM
I am not looking for a simpler time. Nor am I a Luddite; but I'm also far from a tech enthusiast. I don't carry a "berry" or any type of handheld device beyond my cell phone. I read way too much email as it is, so my excuse for not getting one is to avoid feeding my own habit. Jeff Einstein, who used to write regularly for MediaPost, would write passionately and convincingly that we use media the way addicts use drugs.

The Trail Of Online Consumers Increasingly Leads To Content
by Pam Horan on Oct 11, 11:30 AM
Consumers are spending nearly twice as much time online than they did four years ago, and eMarketer predicts that online ad spending will more than double in the next few years - jumping to $44 billion by 2011. It's no surprise that ad dollars are following the eyeballs - but the critical question for marketers is, what exactly are those eyeballs spending time looking at?

The Consequences Of Flying Dynamic Pricing
by Ari Rosenberg on Oct 4, 12:30 PM
Living far below the math- and technology-drivien, auction-based, dynamic pricing approaches provided by companies like Right Media (and used by Google for that matter), is the reality of how media is planned and purchased for brand advertisers. The distance between this dynamic sales approach and the buying discipline in play for this segment are miles apart.

Demi Cup Bras
The Demi Bra is cut straight across the body, covering half of the bust and shelving the breasts. Demi literally means "half" in French, and Demi Bras represent this concept well; a Demi Bra is cut lower than a Full Cup, but provides more coverage than a Balconnet. Demi bras have wide set straps and are typically cut at a slight angle to enhance presentation and create an open neckline.

Abstract: With the growing demands from a population expected to reach 9 billion people by 2050, it is unclear how our current global food system will meet future food needs. Ensuring that all people have access to adequate and nutritious food produced in an environmentally and socio-culturally sustainable manner is one of the greatest challenges of our time. "Sustainable diets" have been proposed as a multidimensional framework to address the need for nutritious and adequate food in the context of the many challenges facing the world today: reducing poverty and hunger, improving environmental health, enhancing human well-being and health, and strengthening local food networks, sustainable livelihoods and cultural heritage. This paper examines the contribution of forests and trees to sustainable diets, covering among others, nutritional, cultural, environmental and provisioning aspects. The literature reviewed highlight major opportunities to strengthen the contribution of forest and tree foods to sustainable diets. However, several constraints need to be removed. They relate to: cultural aspects, sustainable use of non-wood forest products, organization of forest food provisioning, limited knowledge of forest food composition, challenges in adapting management of forests and trees to account for forest foods, and in integrating forest biodiversity into complex landscapes managed for multiple benefits. Finally, the paper identifies research gaps and makes recommendations to enhance the contribution of forest foods to sustainable diets through increased awareness and better integration of information and knowledge on nutritious forest foods into national nutrition strategies and programs.
