1. An intraocular lens for use in eyes of different sizes, comprising:
an optic;
a haptic which is connected to and projects outwardly from at least a portion of the optic; the haptic including an outer periphery with a plurality of support portions adapted to maintain and support the optic within an eye, the support portions being located on one of a plurality of different diameters of different length relative to the optic, so that the support portions along one diameter can be selected and the other support portions removed for adapting the lens to fit in an eye of a predetermined size.
2. The lens of claim 1, wherein:
the haptic includes a substantially flat sheet lying in a plane perpendicular to the focal axis of the optic; and
the support portions are protuberances on the perimeter of the sheet.
3. The lens of claim 2, wherein:
the protuberances are arranged in sets;
each set has at least one protuberance on the opposite side of the optic from at least one of the other protuberances in that set; and
all protuberances in one set are equidistant from the focal axis of the optic.
4. The lens of claim 3, wherein:
each set of protuberances is located at a distance from the focal axis of the optic different from the distance from the focal axis of the optic of any other set of protuberances; and
each set of protuberances has an angular location with respect to the plane of the optic which is different from the angular location of any other set of protuberances.
5. The lens of claim wherein each set of protuberances includes two groups of protuberances located on opposite sides of the optic from each other.
6. The lens of claim 5, wherein each group includes a pair of protuberances.
7. The lens of claim 6, wherein the optic and the haptic are formed integrally from a single piece of material.
8. The lens of claim 7, wherein the material is a soft, pliant material.
9. An intraocular lens which can be trimmed to fit a plurality of different sizes of ocular chambers, comprising:
an optic portion;
a substantially flat sheet support haptic surrounding and attached to the optic portion;
support feet formed on the perimeter of the support haptic, wherein:
the support feet are arranged in groups;
each group includes support feet equidistant from the center of the optic portion;
each group is at a different distance from the center of the optic portion from the other groups; and
the groups are arranged in angular locations so that the support haptic can be trimmed to remove therefrom all unnecessary groups, leaving undisturbed only the group having the desired distance from the center of the optic portion.
1. Technical Field of the Invention
This invention relates to intraocular lenses (IOLs), which are to be implanted in the eye to replace a natural lens that has been removed because of cataract or other reasons. More particularly, this invention relates to an IOL with an uniquely-shaped haptic designed to be implanted in the anterior or posterior chamber of the eye.
2. Background of the Invention
There are many IOLs of varied shapes on the market, which are used to replace the natural lens of the eye after surgery where the natural lens of the eye is removed. Such lenses include an optical portion and one or more support loops or sheet-like haptics, which retain the IOL optic in the eye in its desired position either in front of the iris in the anterior chamber or to the rear of the iris in the posterior chamber.
The haptics retain the IOL in a relatively fixed position so that light can be focused on the retina. It is advantageous for the haptics to be flexible in order to accommodate changes in shape of the eyeball without causing damage to any of the interior portions of the eye in contact with the haptics.
IOLs can be formed of a single-piece of material such as polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) where the haptics are formed integral with the optic portion through casting, machining or lathe cutting methods. Other types of IOLs, called multi-piece lenses, can also be formed where haptics made of a material such as polypropylene or PMMA are attached to an optic portion by heat welding or through laser welding, ultrasonic welding or other methods.
More recently, IOLs have been formed of so-called "soft" materials such as hydrogels, acrylics or elastomers. Examples of such materials are described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,573,998. The present invention is particularly adapted for use with IOLs formed of such soft materials.
IOLs are formed with flexible support members or haptics in order to facilitate positioning of the lens in the proper location while accommodating changing shapes of the eyeball. The haptic design, including its flexibility, is considered to be important in achieving maximum patient comfort and lack of postoperative complications, ease of implantation and effectiveness of maintaining the lens in its proper position.
The haptics or IOLs formed of the so-called "soft" materials have haptics that are sheet-like or substantially flat, which are formed integral with the lens optic. It is important that the haptics are sized so that they fit accurately and snugly into the eye of the patient. Typically, a surgeon must have available a large inventory of lenses wit haptics of different sizes so that he can accurately fit the lens to the particular eye on which he is working. This is an expensive requirement. It would be beneficial to have a single lens which could fit any size opening in order to obviate the requirement for a large inventory of surgically clean lenses.
Attempts have been made to provide one lens which has adjustable haptics so that a single lens can be used to fit a wide range of eye openings. One such attempt is illustrated in U.S. Pat. No. 4,134,161. This lens has a stationary haptic having two toes on one side of the lens while the other side of the lens has an adjustable haptic having two toes. The adjustable haptic can be moved in or out with respect to the optic portion of the lens, thereby adjusting the overall outside dimension, measured from toe to toe, of the lens. Adjustment is achieved by providing ridges and grooves on the adjustable haptic which mate with ridges and grooves on a stationery portion of the lens. Once the desired adjustment is made, the adjustable haptic is held n position by means of clamps which force the mating ridges and grooves together. This arrangement requires that manufacture of the lens include formation of relatively intricate moving parts having small interlocking features. Some of the parts having smaller cross-sections, such as the clamps, are subject to breakage either during installation or after a period of use.
Another attempt at making an adjustable lens can be seen in U.S. Pat. No. 4,296,501. This lens has an L-shaped stationary haptic on one side of the optic portion while the other haptic on the other side of the optic portion is formed of two connected arms, the second of which can pivot about its connection with the first arm. By means of pivoting the second arm, the surgeon can adjust the overall outside dimension of the haptics, from toe to toe, to the desired dimension for the eye being worked on. Once the second arm is in the desired position, it can be sutured in place by means of holes provided in both arms. This lens, again, requires somewhat complex manufacturing procedures to provide a lens having relatively intricate interlocking parts which can move with respect to one another. The mating of the rotating arms of the second haptic is achieved by reducing the thickness of these arms. The sections of reduced thickness are held in the desired orientation by attachment means such as suturing at a small number of attachment points, such as the holes provided. In order for this adjustable haptic to be sufficiently rigid to hold the lens in place, the attaching together of the pivoting arms must be tight and permanent. The pivot point, therefore, being of reduced thickness and utilizing only a few attachment points, is the weakest portion of the haptic structure. Any fatigue of the sutures or plastic parts will result in breakage or at least loosening of the attachment between the pivoting arm and the stationary arm. This will result in a loose haptic which will allow the lens to become dislodged.
The present invention is a one piece soft material lens capable of fitting several different diameter eye openings. The haptics are formed so that the surgeon can choose the size required at the time of surgery and trim from the haptics the portions not required for the desired size.
FIG. 1 is a plan view of the lens of the present invention.
FIG. 2 is a plan view of the lens of FIG. 1 after the unwanted haptic portions have been trimmed away.
FIG. 3 is a plan view of the lens of FIG. 1 demonstrating the three different haptic diameters typically available.
Referring to FIG. 1, an intraocular lens A includes an optic portion 100 and a haptic portion 200. The haptic portion 200 has three sets of protuberances 210, 220, and 230 on its perimeter. Each set of protuberances 210, 220 and 230 is formed of four protuberances arranged in pairs, with each individual protuberance being substantially equidistant from the center of the optic portion 100. For example, the protuberance set 210 has individual protuberances 210a, b, c, and d with protuberances 210a and 210b forming one pair and protuberances 210c and 210d forming another pair. These two pairs are equidistant from and arranged on opposite sides of the optic portion 100.
As seen in FIG. 1, the protuberance set 210 constitutes the set of protuberances closest to the center of the optic portion 100. The next most distant set of protuberances is designated by reference numeral, 220 which is composed of individual protuberances 220a, b, c and d. These again are arranged in pairs which are equidistant and on opposite sides of the optic portion 100. The most distant set of protuberances is designated by reference numeral 230, which is formed of individual protuberances 230a, b, c and d, arranged in equidistant pairs similar to the other sets.
The protuberances 210a and 210b are connected by an uninterrupted arc 212 which has its center of curvature outside the haptic portion 200. Similarly, the protuberances 210c and 210d are connected by an uninterrupted arc 214, which also has its center of curvature outside haptic portion 200. The protuberances 220a and 220b, in similar fashion, are connected by an arc 222 and the protuberances 220c and 220d by the arc 224. Finally, the protuberances 230a and 230b are connected by an arc 232 and the protuberances 230c and 230d, by an arc 234.
A line bisecting arcs 212 and 214 intersects a line bisecting arcs 222 and 224 at about a 60� angle. Similarly the two aforementioned lines intersect a line bisecting the arcs 232 and 234 at 60� angles. This angular orientation could be modified as required if the number of sets of protuberances were changed for a different embodiment.
For example, if only two sets of protuberances were desired, the intersecting angle would likely be approximately 90�. In any given set of protuberances such as those designated by reference numeral 210 each pair of protuberances 210a and 210b, for example, are connected by an unbroken arc 212 with no other protuberances between them. This is important to insure that once the unwanted portions of haptic 200 are trimmed away, there will be no rough edges remaining on any portion of the haptic which might contact eye tissue.
Preferably the IOL A is formed of an optically transparent medical grade soft pliant material such as silicone, butyl acrylate, polymethane, or hydrogel. The IOL is preferably molded with a round hatic and then the protuberances can be formed by use of a stamp or other cutting mechanism. Alternatively, the lens and haptic can be molded with the protuberances in place. It would also be possible to mold the entire lens with a round haptic portion formed of an hydrophylic material, then machine the protuberance features into the haptic portion and finally hydrate the material.
FIG. 2 shows a lens A' as it appears after the unwanted portions of the haptic have been trimmed away. The optic portion 100 is mounted in an eye by means of the remaining haptic portion 200'. The protuberances 220a, b, c, and d remain and constitute the contact points between the haptic and the structure of the eye.
When the surgeon determines the required haptic diameter according to the diameter of the eye opening, in this particular case choosing the diameter of protuberance set 220, he or she cuts along lines 226 and 228. This removes from the lens haptic portions containing the unnecessary parts of the protuberance sets 210 and 230.
Cut lines 226 and 228 are shown as arcs having a very large radius of curvature extending between the protuberances 220b, 220c, and 220a, 220d; however, these cut lines can be modified by the surgeon during the operation as he sees fit according to such variables as the condition of the eye tissue and the size of incision being used.
Once placed in the eye opening, the protuberances 220a, b, c, and d contact the eye structure to hold the lens in place. It can be seen that the ends of the remaining haptics formed of the protuberances 220a, b, c, and d and the intermediate arcs 222 and 224 are part of the original perimeter of the haptic portion as manufactured. This insures that they retain a smooth unbroken edge achieved during the manufacturing process. The edges cut by the surgeon, here being the arcs 226 and 228, need not be as smooth since they will have no contact with the eye structure. This insures that irritation and damage of surrounding eye tissue is minimized.
It can be seen that if the surgeon wants to use a smaller diameter haptic, he would trim away the haptic portion leaving the protuberance set 210, or if he or she wants a larger diameter haptic, he or she would trim away the haptic portion leaving the the protuberance set 230. The protuberance contours shown here are for illustration purposes only. Any contours desired can be used without departing from the present invention.
FIG. 3 illustrates a lens of the present invention having three protuberance sets, 210, 220 and 230, which are molded to provide three typical diameters D1, D2, and D3. By way of illustration in a typical lens, the diameter D1 of a circle which contains the outermost points of the protuberances of set 210 would be 12.0 millimeters. Similarly, the diameter D2 of the circle containing the outermost points of the protuberances of set 220, being the intermediate set, would be 13.0 millimeters and diameter D3 of a circle containing the outermost points of the protuberances of the largest set, 230, would be 14.0 millimeters.
In the lens chosen for illustration, the arcs 212, 222, 232, 214, 224, and 234 would have radii of curvature of 3.7 millimeters. All the protuberances would have radii of curvature of 0.25 millimeter and the angular separation relative to the center of the lens between two protuberances of a given pair would vary between approximately 22 degrees and approximately 27 degrees.
Various modifications and improvements to the present invention will become apparent to those with ordinary skill in the art. All such modifications or improvements are considered to be included within the scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.

29 Jul 2011 03:39 GMT | Business & Economy, Europe, Cyprus
Cyprus' cabinet has resigned in preparation for a reshuffle aimed at addressing an economic and energy crisis.
Caused by a munition blast that knocked out the island's main power station and killed 13 people, the economic and energy situation in Cyprus is so dire that it raised fears of a possible EU bailout.
However, Demetris Christofias, the Cypriot president, said he would not follow his cabinet in resigning over a destructive munitions blast earlier this month.
Christofias, facing the worst crisis of his career said on Thursday, "The people elected me, and it is to the people that I am accountable. Not to media."
The explosion, on July 11, destroyed the island's largest power plant and raised the possibility of an EU bailout.
Stefanos Stefanou, the government spokesman said Cyprus would not necessarily need help from the European Union to restore its economy.
But even before the onset of an energy crisis caused by the blast, borrowing costs had risen steadily because of Cyprus's exposure to Greek debt.
"Until now, Cyprus has managed to satisfy its financing needs until the end of the year. So don't take it as a given that Cyprus will be admitted into a support mechanism," he said.
Embattled president
Christofias will go ahead with the reshuffle soon after concluding consultations with the leadership of junior governing coalition party DIKO, government spokesman Stefanos Stefanou said.
The ministers will stay on until the reshuffle is completed.
The embattled president has been under pressure for a cabinet reshuffle after the ministers of defence and foreign affairs resigned over the explosion of seized Iranian munitions that were being stored at a naval basenear the power station.
Christofias, elected for a five year term in 2008, has also been under pressure from coalition partners, the Democratic Party or DIKO to create a broad-based unity government to tackle the crisis.
When he did not immediately heed the call last week, DIKO asked its two ministers on Wednesday to resign.
Christofias responded by asking all of the ministers to quit.
"The president of the republic briefed ministers of his intention to proceed with a broad reshuffle of the government and asked they place their resignations at his disposal," said Stefanou.
Thousands of Cypriots have protested over the blast, blaming state incompetence for allowing seized munitions to be stored near a power station in scorching heat.
The munitions, confiscated from a ship sailing from Iran to Syria in 2009, were stored a few hundred metres away from a power station on the south coast in often scorching heat, despite appeals from army officers for their removal.
Christofias has said an inquiry into the incident will also scrutinise his own role, though aides have repeatedly said he was unaware of the deteriorating storage conditions.
Credit rating downgraded
Cyprus has been left shellshocked by the explosion and any prolonged political wrangling threatens to derail much-needed economic reforms.
Preliminary finance ministry estimates suggest the blast will wipe out growth forecasts this year and Moody's on Wednesday cut Cyprus to three notches above junk.
Last week, Athanasios Orphanides, the island's central bank governor and European Central Bank governing council member said that without immediate action Cyprus might follow Greece, Ireland and Portugal in asking for a EU handout.
The cost of damage from the explosion and subsequent disruption from power cuts has been cited as anything between 1bn and 3bn euros.
The finance ministry has not given an assessment, but 3bn euros would represent 17 per cent of Cyprus's GDP.

Champions League Soccer Breaks Super Bowl's Record For Twitter Activity
The Super Bowl may be the biggest sporting event in the U.S., but around the world American football doesn't hold a candle to soccer's … err, football's … popularity.
That was proved true on Twitter yesterday when the Champions League semifinal between Barcelona and Chelsea set a new tweets-per-second (TPS) record for a sporting event.
Twitter announced that 13,684 TPS were hitting its platform during the match, breaking the Super Bowl's record of 12,233 TPS set in February.
As Twitter becomes more mainstream — you can hardly watch a TV show of any kind in the U.S. today without seeing Twitter hashtags on the screen — I'd expect future sporting events to surpass yesterday's Champions League record.
By the way, the overall record-holder for TPS is still a Japanese broadcast of Hayao Miyazaki's Castle in the Sky, which produced 25,088 tweets per second back on December 9, 2011.

When I got my Comcast bill this month, I noticed it was about $10 higher than last month. But it was no biggie---I knew exactly why. The reduced rate I was getting on HBO had come to an end. I quickly got on the phone to customer service to ask a simple question, "Do you have any specials on HBO going on right now?"
The customer service person started to talk about some deal on a cable package with hundreds more channels than I wanted. "No thanks," I said, but are there any specials just on HBO or another premium channel?
"I can offer you three months of HBO free," she said.
"I'll take it," I said.
There isn't any magic word to get the free or reduced cost premium channels. Sometimes I've been offered a premium channel for $10 per month for six or 12 months, regularly $19.95 a month. The free offers are usually for a shorter time period. One representative told me that the offers are usually best at the beginning of the month, but I've never confirmed that.
I have friends who have gotten similar deals after I mentioned my tip, but one skeptical co-worker thinks I'm getting special treatment. I doubt it. All that I do is ask nicely, always nicely, if there are any specials on _________ (fill in the blank with your favorite premium channel).
And yes, there are times when I've been told "no" and times when the deal was revoked because of an existing deal already on my account. I'll bet I get a deal half the time when I call.
So, dealspotters, have you ever gotten a deal on a premium channel just by asking? Prove me right or wrong.

Getting back into gaming meant Ventrilo!! To be able to have full sound, a mic was a must. Came onto the site a couple weeks back saw these were on sale. Wasnt in a huge need for sound canceling. More wanted quality without breaking the bank. I have to admit, these were on sale, and for the price, very impressed. Great full rang sound, and does not skimp on the bass!! For you Rap and R&B peeps these got all the range you can expect for a headset. Also comes with a great collect of wire extensions!!

Smit: Money not my motivation
ESPNscrum Staff
October 27, 2011
Smit was unveiled as a Saracens player on Wednesday © Getty Images
Saracens' new signing John Smit is adamant his move to the Premiership champions is not motivated by money and hopes to make a big impact on the pitch.
Former South Africa captain Smit brought the curtain down on his Springboks career after their World Cup quarter-final loss to Australia and the 33-year-old is keen to emphasise that he has arrived with a view to adding to his medal haul rather than just going through the motions and bolstering his retirement fund.
"There are two types of players who have come here from the southern hemisphere," he told The Evening Standard. "There are the guys who want to come here and make a life here. Those guys have invariably done well and proven to be an asset to their clubs.
"You have had other guys who have come here and sat around and not paid the Premiership that respect. I'm fully aware of that, and it's not my intention. For someone who has played as long as I have, the last thing I want is for people to say I came here for two or three years and just sat around.
"Speaking frankly, there are many clubs someone like me could have gone to, jumped on the boat and seen how far it would take me. Saracens is not that kind of club. This is a dynamic club making huge inroads, and one that has been hugely successful over the past two years."
Despite being able to play along the front-row, Smit faces stiff competition for a place in the side from the likes of Matt Stevens, Carlos Nieto, Dean Carstens and fellow South African international hooker Schalk Brits. Possessing a wealth of experience on the international stage, Smit is ready to impart his knowledge onto the next generation of Saracens players coming through the ranks.
"I'm blessed to have been given a lot of information and skills by players and coaches from before my time, and I don't want to die with all this information inside me," he said. "If there's anyone I can help, or learn from, I'm happy to help if people ask."
And with Saracens lining up a Heineken Cup clash with Biarritz in Cape Town in the early part of next year, Smit is looking forward to helping promote the club in his homeland. Smit said: "From a televised point of view we see far more Saracens games on our local network in South Africa than we do of any of the other Premiership teams.
"It's a team that is widely known around South Africa. This trip to play in Cape Town is another sign of the club expanding and trying to grow to become a worldwide brand and not just a club in England. It's another reason why it is that much easier to choose a club like Saracens."

Notification Callback
Any print component or listening application that is interested in receiving notifications must provide objects that expose the IPrintAsyncNotifyCallback interface. The interface inherits from IUnknown so that the clients of the spooler notification mechanism can implement either a COM or a C++ object.
A listening application must provide a pointer to an IPrintAsyncNotifyCallback interface when it registers to receive notifications. The notification sender must provide a pointer to an IPrintAsyncNotifyCallback interface if it is interested in a response and it creates a bidirectional channel.
#define INTERFACE IPrintAsyncNotifyCallback DECLARE_INTERFACE_(IPrintAsyncNotifyCallback, IUnknown) { STDMETHOD(QueryInterface)( THIS_ REFIID riid, void** ppvObj ) PURE; STDMETHOD_(ULONG, AddRef)( THIS ) PURE; STDMETHOD_(ULONG, Release)( THIS ) PURE; STDMETHOD(OnEventNotify)( THIS_ IN IPrintAsyncNotifyChannel*, IN IPrintAsyncNotifyDataObject* ) PURE; STDMETHOD(ChannelClosed)( THIS_ IN IPrintAsyncNotifyChannel*, IN IPrintAsyncNotifyDataObject* ) PURE; };
When a notification is sent from one end of the channel, the spooler service calls the IPrintAsyncNotifyCallback::OnEventNotify method at the other end of the channel to deliver the notification.
When the notification channel is closed at one end, the spooler service calls the IPrintAsyncNotifyCallback::ChannelClosed method at the other end to announce that the channel is closed. The reason for closing the channel is delivered as a notification.
If either the server or the listening application dies, the spooler rundown code detects this condition and the "still alive" end of the channel that is still alive is notified by a IPrintAsyncNotifyCallback::ChannelClosed call, in which a NOTIFICATION_RELEASE message is delivered.

nandinas & pyracanthas
Want to plant a living privacy screen between my yard and neighbors. Love nandinas & pyracanthas and would like to plant both-maybe in groups of three or alternating or...? Anyone ever done this? Do they both grow about the same height at the same rate? Live in upper middle mississippi.
Thanks ya'll, Jeanette from Mississippi
"The kiss of sun for pardon, The song of the birds for mirth, One is nearer God's Heart in a garden Than anywhere else on earth"
Dorothy Frances Gurney
There are several different nandinas, as you probably know, you would want the tall ones for a privacy hedge. In my experience, they are fairly slow growing. I think pyracantha grows faster and gets taller, as I've seen it grown like a climber on a wall or trellis. Also beware of the thorns on the pyracantha that I understand really hurt ("firethorn").
I wouldn't do it that way. Nandina is slow to establish, but usually takes over after a while. Pyracantha makes a great cover for fences and an impenetrable barrier too. If you want really fast and thorny go with Cherokee Rose. It needs no care either.

Tata Completes 2-Megawatt Rooftop Solar Plant in India
July 31 (Bloomberg) -- Tata Power Solar Systems Ltd., a unit of India's biggest industrial group, has completed a 2-megawatt solar rooftop plant in the country's south.
Panels were installed on top of spinning mills and a warehouse owned by Murugan Textiles in Palladam in southern Tamil Nadu state, according to an e-mailed statement today from Tata Power Solar.
Murugan Textiles will expand the project to 3 megawatts next year, according to the statement.
India's government is seeking to promote rooftop solar installations after the country built 2,647 megawatts of capacity, almost all of it large, desert plants.

A little desperate and sad to
A little desperate and sad to use this northern african practically prehistoric civilization that is shrouded in mystery, and was anything but pure black, to build up sub-saharan africans who this very moment cannot build anything beyond grass huts, and whose descendants all over the world consistently settle at the lowest economic and social strata.
I don't want to just be a jerk here. But Egypt is a pretty absurd example compared to the preponderance of hard, detailed evidence supporting the opposing view regarding innate capacities of certain groups.

"A reminder there's still no other company like Dance Theatre of Harlem" - Houston Chronicle
This majestic exhibition of dazzling costumes, set pieces, and video excerpts celebrates an iconic company and its corps that defied prejudice, and gravity itself, in pursuit of their talent. In the process, the company made history and shattered barriers for future generations of aspiring performers. Dance Theatre of Harlem is a celebration of courage, as well as the magic and uplifting power of the performing arts.
An Astonishing Talent
Central to the themes of the exhibition is the story of founder Arthur Mitchell himself. Mitchell, with his astonishing talent, was selected by George Balanchine to join the New York City Ballet. To be the only African American dancer of a major ballet company was a historic achievement in pre-Civil Rights America. He rose to become a principal dancer within the company, then founded Dance Theatre of Harlem in 1969 in a church basement in the aftermath of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s assassination. It was the artist's way of giving back to his community in the credo of the civil rights leader. Dance Theatre rose to become one of the most sought-after companies by the leading impresarios, opera houses, and performance venues around the world.
In addition to the costumes and staged ballets, the exhibition includes historical photographs, original tour programs, letters from choreographers and dignitaries, magazine articles, and design bibles. The exhibition honors the art of dance, and a man who dared to define a vision, rather than having it defined for him.

Parents, educators clash over adoption of Common Core standards (+video)
The Utah State Office of Education sponsored a meeting in Alpine to discuss aspects of the Common Core — a broad framework of educational standards that have been adopted in whole or in part in 45 states.
Comments exchanged between parents, educators and citizens at the meeting became heated at times, as shown in the video on the left.
The Common Core is a framework for setting academic standards nationally. But as U.S. News & World Report published yesterday, "lawmakers in some states hope to halt the transition to the Common Core State Standards, even as school districts across the country are rolling them out."
Today at 4 p.m., the Deseret News live streamed a USOE sponsored meetings from Davis County's district office building in Farmington.
An in-depth story on the Common Core is forthcoming. In the meantime, here are some additional news stories, op-eds and letters to the editor about the Common Core Standards.

"The King of P2P file sharing"
Reviewed by Emmanuel Lund / Mar 06, 2014
Download and share .torrent files with the mobile ap of the most-known service
BitTorrent® has become the most popular P2P client to download and share files using .torrent. It's been for a long time the #1 torrent client on desktop and now came to mobile with the same goal.
BitTorrent® has done an excellent job on making its client mobile native. The outcome is a minimalist and intuitive .torrent download manager. You can easily find torrents by inputting a request on BitTorrent®'s search bar or from "Discover" tab (featured content by BitTorrent). It will launch the browser unless you have a specific torrent site's app installed in your device. Select your favorite source and click download. The option to select BitTorrent will prompt and the .torrent added to the app.
Before the download begins, you can select the download location folder as well as select specific files within the torrent. In addition, you can see the details of the torrent while downloading: containing files, ETA, ratio, speed, date, peers and seeds. You can pause/resume and delete the torrent anytime.
From settings you can set download/upload limit, TCP port, automatic start on boot and resume download only over WiFi.
Although I'm missing widgets to keep track of the download/uploads from the homescreen, BitTorrent® works like a charm.

A Dallas-based investor just bought a large industrial building in Miamisburg.
OLP Miamisburg LLC bought the 35,000-square-foot FedEx building at 2578 Corporate Place in Miamisburg for $1.65 million. Vic Green, broker with Vic Green Realty, represented the seller, Cane Creek LLC.
FedEx recently signed a new lease through 2018 on the building, which has 5,000 square feet of office space and 30,000 square feet of warehouse. The building was originally built for FedEx in 1986, Green said.
Green said neither party wanted to be identified publicly.

Generic Syslog Collector
Have I understood the following correct?
If I configure a device (that the SIM have no collector for) to send information in syslog format (rfc 3164) I can gather this information using the Generic Syslog Collector onboard the appliance?
When this is setup I can then trigger actions to specific messages from that device or correlate two different messages from this device and then trigger an action.
We are running SIM 4.6 today mostly for windows server event logs, IIS event logs and cisco logs.
Jesper Boll
Comments 2 Comments • Jump to latest comment
Yes. those messages will be captured with Generic Syslog Collector, but those events will be pretty much useless. The only field events will have after translation is Event Description. That's not enough for correlation.
Generic Syslog is mostly for POC to prove SSIM is able to get events from the device or application. So a collector is needed anyways.
In 4.7 there are Universal Collector where you can easily sketch a collector to map some fields to later use them in correlation.

Radwanska Proves Mettle with Breakout Wimbledon
By Chris Oddo
Photo Credit: Clive Rose/ Getty
(July 7, 2012)— She may have
lost in today's final
, but the first Polish player to reach a Grand Slam final in 73 years certainly made a strong statement at
Even her opponent, the accomplished
Serena Williams
, took time to acknowledge that fact. "You guys should give her another round of applause," Serena said, moments after slipping past Radwanska in a tricky three-set final. "She's amazing."
The Centre Court faithful responded with a roar that didn't want to die.
It was a moment of heartfelt and well-deserved appreciation for
Agnieszka Radwanska
, a player who has made inspiring strides in 2012, winning three titles and now reaching a Grand Slam final and the No. 2 ranking in the world.
Radwanska, 23, had never advanced past the quarterfinals of a Grand Slam
until this week
, but her stingy effort against Angelique Kerber in Thursday's semifinal proved she's capable of a big-match mentality.
That bulldog mentality was on display against Serena Williams today, as Radwanska engineered a determined comeback to nearly pull off one of the biggest upset shocks in Wimbledon history.
That she fell short doesn't in any way diminish her accomplishments for the fortnight.
Not known for power, there is an underlying spirit of industriousness in Radwanska's game. She finds countless and creative ways to defuse her bigger, stronger opponents with whipsmart strokes and freakishly soft hands; she curls and flicks balls into corners, dangles slices that cling to the grass; she smacks down-the-line backhand winners and opens up angles with the best of them. And while she may lack power, Radwanska does not lack a finishing touch.
She's also a classic underdog. Radwanska is 123 pounds dripping wet, and she's not blessed with the grace of a
Justine Henin
or the snap of a
Monica Seles
. Still, she regularly scores knockout blows against the girls that Mary Carillo once coined as "Big Babes."
In an age of academy-trained baseline bashers, Radwanska is the antidote to the hyper-physical, repetitive brand of tennis employed by many of today's young phemons. She's an improvisational player that makes tennis look creative. There is a back-yard feel to her strokes, and her personality shows up when she swings.
Today, playing for her first Grand Slam title, she was undaunted by the aura of Centre Court--a task that has been proved to be Herculean for many.
In the end, when the dust settled and Williams had stamped the match
with her latest claim to greatness,
let loose the type of emotion that has made her so endearing to so many fans this season.
"I'm still shaking so much," said the down-to-earth Radwanska, elated in spite of the defeat, and close to tears. "I think I had the best two weeks of my life."
It was a rare glimpse into the heart of an athlete, as genuine as they come.
Players like to talk tough about how coming in second place is akin to coming in last, but in Radwanska's case you can throw that faulty logic out the window.
For Radwanska and for Poland, second place was a huge victory. It should be celebrated as such.

Woogie protects your iPhone and makes it considerably more huggable
By Simon Crisp
October 14, 2012
The Woogie is an iPhone and iPod touch case that makes your Apple device considerably more huggable than those designed to add a keyboard or stop a bullet. Intended for those times you pass your iPhone to your kids, the new Woogie from Griffin Technology comes as one of two characters, which an accompanying app brings to life with your iPhone screen becoming the face of the interactive playmate.
Described as "half iPhone case, half huggable friend," the new Woogie comes as either Zee or Fee. The two are essentially the same except Zee is predominantly blue with a tuft of green hair, while Fee is a more feminine-looking purple and pink with a bow on the top of her head. Both are big, cuddly and probably not cases you'd want to be caught with on public transport for your daily commute to work.
The pair each have five floppy legs, which can be used to position the case in your lap or on a table for watching video and playing games, and a soft, see-through plastic window that protects your display from scratches. An opening also allows you to plug in a pair of headphones.
A free download Woogie app lets users pick a face to match their Woogie before seeing how it reacts and the funny faces it pulls when you tickle, shake and poke it. Little ones can also feed, dress and groom their Woogie in a Tamagotchi-esque manner, before tucking it in at nap time and listening to it snore.
Bluetooth allows multiple Woogies to interact with each other when they are near by starting to chat and tell jokes … though we're not sure what passes for Woogie humor. In-app games see you take a Woogie character on a series of adventures in situations from the backyard to the beach and even space.
The new Woogies, Zee and Fee, are available online from Griffin Technology for US$25 each.

Japan's economy was "starting to recover moderately" as economic conditions improved abroad, the central bank said on Friday after a two—day policy meeting.
"Exports and production have been increasing mainly against a backdrop of high growth in emerging economies," the Bank of Japan said in a statement, upgrading its assessment of the nation's economic health.
Bank Governor Masaaki Shirakawa said he expected international concerns over Europe's fiscal problems to have a "limited" impact on Japan.
But the bank said it needed to pay attention to how Europe's problems would affect international finance and the global economy.
Its announcement came a day after the government said Japan's economy expanded at an annualized rate of 4.9 per cent in the first quarter for the fourth—consecutive quarter of growth, bolstered by strong exports to Asia and a recovery in consumption.
The rate marked an improvement of a 1.2—per—cent expansion in the previous quarter.
"Japan's economy is starting to recover moderately, induced by improvement in overseas economic conditions," the Bank of Japan said.
It injected 1 trillion yen (11.1 billion dollars) on Friday into money markets in an emergency move to improve liquidity.
Meanwhile, the bank announced a preliminary framework for new lending measures to commercial banks to reinforce economic growth.
The bank's policy board also decided to hold its key interest rate unchanged at 0.1 per cent.

Those who got my tomatoes and eggplants...
madabouteu(8A - central Alabama)June 1, 2014
at the spring swap, I'd really like to hear how they come out. At present all my tomato plants are doing very well, most are in bloom and several varieties are in fruit already. I am less impressed with the eggplants, no fruit has set and in fact growth seems very slow.
madabouteu(8A - central Alabama)
Most of my tomatoes are starting to bear ripe fruit now. I picked my first "Coyote" tomato this morning and it was very good indeed, a definite repeat for next year - lots of them on the plant, too! The Fox Cherry is to me not really a cherry tomato, it's about the size of a Ping-Pong ball and still not red.
