This study will determine if Albumin-linked interferon (Albinterferon alfa-2b) every 2 weeks is safe and tolerated by patients infected by both hepatitis C virus (HCV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). This is a new medication developed for HCV. It may help the immune system fight infections, especially those caused by viruses. Albinterferon alfa-2b appears quite similar to other interferons, in side effects and action in controlling HCV.
Patients ages 18 and older who are infected with HCV genotype 1, are HIV positive, are infected with HCV, and have evidence of HCV-induced liver disease; and who are not pregnant or breast feeding may be eligible for this study. Many visits to NIH over a 76-week period are required. There will be collection of blood and urine, pregnancy test, and tests of HCV in the blood. A liver biopsy is required before start of the study if patients have not had one within 1 year. Another is done at the end of 72 weeks. An eye exam is done before start of the study and repeated later. An optional procedure called automated pheresis is done at the study beginning. Researchers can study patients' immunity to control HCV. Blood is drawn through a needle in an arm vein and spun in a machine to separate the desired blood component. Remaining blood is returned to the patient.
Patients will receive Albinterferon alfa-2b at a dose of 900 mcg every 2 weeks for 48 weeks, by injection under the skin. Ribavirin is given at 1,000 mg or 1,200 mg by mouth twice daily, depending on a patient's weight. Side effects of Albinterferon alfa-2b are fatigue, headache, joint and muscle pain, and sleeplessness. The major side effect of ribavirin is anemia. Visits ranging from week 3 to 44 will determine the safety of Albinterferon alfa-2b and ribavirin and to see effects on reducing the HCV viral load. For weeks 48, 52, 56, 64, 72, and 76, patients will return for a clinic visit and blood tests. At week 72, an abdominal ultrasound and liver biopsy are done. Week 76 includes discussion of biopsy results.

Drug: Albinterferon
Hepatitis C infection occurs in one-third of all human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected individuals. Liver disease has become more significant among subjects coinfected with HIV and hepatitis C virus (HCV). Several studies have shown that coinfected individuals develop earlier and more severe liver disease. Pegylated interferon alpha with ribavirin (RBV) has become the therapy of choice for HCV among people with HCV alone. However, pegylated interferon with RBV therapy for HIV/HCV coinfected subjects results in only modest cure rates. This is an open-label, non-randomized prospective trial to assess safety and tolerability of Alb-IFN (interferon alpha genetically fused to human serum albumin) 900 mcg every 2 weeks (Q2w) with daily RBV among HIV/HCV coinfected individuals. Twenty-five subjects who are infected with both HIV and HCV and who also have evidence of chronic hepatitis, but who are na ve to anti-HCV treatment, will receive Alb-IFN 900 mcg Q2w together with a standard daily dose of RBV for 48 weeks. These subjects will be monitored for Alb-IFN serum concentration level, HCV viral load, HIV viral load, and CD4 counts, and will undergo a baseline liver biopsy and another optional liver biopsy at the end of 72 weeks. The results of the study will enable us to better delineate the efficacy of Alb-IFN in suppressing the hepatitis C virus in HIV/HCV coinfected subjects. This will be important given the current low cure rate of HCV among HIV coinfected individuals.

Administrative and other records from universities and research facilities are a source of data for researchers and members in scientific boards. Also, records from Internet providers may be a source of data on female and male users, the time used and the types of activities carried out.
Household or individual ICT surveys are a source of data on access to and use of the Internet, computers and other communication technologies. Additional data collected in these surveys, including on individual and household characteristics, can contribute to explain gender differences in the access and use of ICT.
Share of women among researchers may be overestimated when only public universities and public research facilities are covered by statistics, as the private sector of research is more male-dominated than the public sector.
Some gender-specific aspects of use of ICT are not yet captured through statistics, even in countries already producing statistics on use of ICT on a regular basis. For example, women and men may seek different types of information and carry out different activities, for different purposes and investing different amounts of time. The obstacles in accessing ICT may be also gender-differentiated.

10.06.2013 /
MOUNT MORRIS, Pennsylvania – FMF/Orange Brigade/KTM rider Joey Savatgy had his career best moto finish when he crossed the line in 5th overall for the second moto at the fourth round of the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship Series.
Joey Savatgy struggled from a poor start in the first moto and came around the first lap in mid-pack. Shortly into the moto he encountered a front brake issue which cost him a few positions. Despite the mechanical issue he was still able to charge forward to 13th position by the moto end.
His luck would turn around in the second moto where he jumped out to a great start. He was sitting in 4th position as the riders came around the first corner. He continued to battle inside the top five for the first half of the race just seconds behind the lead riders. Savatgy never sat worse than fifth position with his KTM 250 SX-F and even moved up to battle Zach Osborne for 3rd place around the halfway mark of the race. Unfortunately, Savatgy suffered a small crash and lost a few seconds to Osborne. In the final laps of the race, he dropped one position to Eli Tomac which placed him 5th. He continued to push forward and held off a hard charge from Jeremy Martin in the final laps of the race to cross the line in 5th for his best career moto finish.
Savatgy's 13-5 finishes earned him 9th overall for the day. "I am so excited to finish a moto in the top five. It has been my goal all season. I know that is where I belong and I was finally able to help myself get there by getting a good start. My team has been amazing this year and I am excited to finally give them a result we have been hoping for," stated Savatgy.

british, the act of throwing buds of plants at windows of peoples homes just for kicks. Plant buds favoured because stones/rocks smash and eggs splat, allows one to be a little bugger whilst not being a complete shit. Plus, plant buds are to hand when roaming the street with ones friends. Repeated visits to the same house cause maximum annoyance, often resulting in getting chased by the homeowner!!!
"shall we go budding?" "most def, grab that plant bud and throw it at mrs smith, pain in the arse she is!!"

Chuck Hagel, the former Republican senator from Nebraska, was sworn in as secretary of defense Wednesday after a bruising nomination fight.
Hagel took oath in a private ceremony at the Pentagon on his first day at work and will make remarks to service members and civilian employees of the department later Wednesday morning.
The new defense secretary arrived at the Pentagon about 40 minutes late from his scheduled arrival time of 7:30 a.m. ET.
Shortly after being approved Tuesday afternoon by the Senate -- following a long confirmation battle with Republican senators who opposed some of his previous statements and positions -- Hagel released a statement about his new job.
"I am honored that President Obama and the Senate have entrusted me to serve our nation once again," the statement read. "I can think of no greater privilege than leading the brave, dedicated men and women of the Department of Defense as they perform vital missions around the globe. I will work closely with Congress to ensure that we maintain the strongest military in the world and continue to protect this great nation."

England may be the birthplace of football, but Brazil is without doubt where the game was honed to perfection. Pele played a large part in that and now youngsters in Sao Paulo are eager to follow in his footsteps.
Despite being one of the best players ever to grace a football pitch, Pele has never forgotten his roots and even today he remembers those less fortunate than himself. It is little wonder, as the former world champion grew up in a poor Sao Paulo suburb and cleaned shoes as a child in order to support his parents.
Approximately 100 kilometres away from Pele's hometown, the EPROCAD football school trains children and adolescents from the surrounding area and offers them fresh hope.
FIFA.com and FIFA TV take a closer look and accompany one young pupil, Tiago, who dreams of a glittering football career on the world stage.

New Observing Baseball Icon (Part 2)
If this isn't your first time reading this blog, you've probably seen my "Observing Baseball Icon". You know, the one I designed and wrote about in this entry. But…for those of you who are too lazy to click the link for whatever reason, here's the icon I'm talking about:
Now, let me clarify the thing that everyone I have talked about the icon in person with has asked me: "Mateo, isn't that a logo." No, it's not the logo. The unofficial logo for Observing Baseball can be found *within* the icon (it's the circle with the "OB" in it), but this image itself is not the logo.
Anyway, I liked this icon when I made it during my high school's senior internship, but now that I look back at it, it's really cluttered and is too "me, me, me" for my taste and probably everyone else's. So, with the new year coming up, I decided I have excuse enough to remake the icon. I thought of the basic idea for the logo pretty quickly, so while we were filming the "How to Dissect/Deconstruct a Baseball" video, I explained to Jonathan what kind of picture I wanted him to take for the logo. He failed:
So then I took a picture of him showing him how I wanted it to look–which also ended up being a failure of a picture, but he got the idea:
Anyway, we took the final picture that I ended up using right after that:
I knew I wasn't going to write this entry until about Christmas, but the day I was supposed to leave to San Francisco for Christmas, I remembered that I don't actually have Photoshop on my laptop, so–almost an hour later–I had the new icon edited and ready to go:
Then I thought, "How would it look if I went with black instead of white?":
The I thought, "You can't see my hand in that one; let me change the angle of the color gradient.":
Then I thought, "My two favorite colors are orange and green. Why don't I make those the two background colors?":
Then I thought, 'Well, I might as well see what would happen if I used an all-bright-colors background.":
Then I thought, "Why don't I make it Christmas colors for fun, since that's coming up soon.":
Then I realized that I probably should have darkened the red in the logo, because red and green are complementary colors, so I did that:
And then I thought I should go to bed and stop messing around with color schemes in the computer lab.
So, I ask you, my dear readers: Which would you like to see the most as the icon for Observing Baseball moving forward? Vote for your favorite in the poll below:
And as always, vote for which entry(s) you would like to see next if you haven't. ( I know it's annoying, but it's just in case someone new comes along whenever. I don't want them to have to go back like five entries just to be able to vote for the entries of their choice.):
And here's the link to where I explain what these different entry types mean.
I guess I should mention that with this entry coming out, there will be still three more entries coming out between today and January 1st. They will be published three days straight. So they will go December 30th, December 31st, and January 1st. The last one, however, will just be me publishing the stat report that WordPress sends out at the end of the year. It should be interesting for all of you guys regardless, though, if you're into that kind of stuff.

Pingback: 2013 Blog Plans « A Piece of The Game
I really like the 3rd Logo! Its bold and the colors really contrast each other.
Are you going to Twins Fest? I'm going on the Saturday, Jan 26. Hopefully i'll see you there.
Paul- The black and green one? Okay. And yes, I'll be at Twinsfest all three days.
I was all ready to go all 3 days, but now I can only make it to 1 day, Saturday. Bummer though, I had so much planned!
Paul- I've never been to a fanfest before, so I don't know what to expect, but I felt I've been so deprived in my 18 years of fanfests that I might as well go to all three games. Especially when you consider it's my favorite team too. I truly don't know what I'll do in all of this time, because I plan to get there when it opens and leave when it closes. I suspect I'll be filming and photographing things.
Sean-I don't know. New Year's Day? It's kind of difficult, though, when it's a six-way tie between every design except number 2.
When will you choose the new design?
Hey Mateo,
I really like this new design no matter what color it happens to be. I just actually made a new blog today. I would really appreciate it if you could check it out.
Quinn- I actually already did, but I forgot to comment on it, so let me go ahead and do that now.
Oh cool, thank you very much.
Quinn-With all of the support you have given me the past year, it's the least I can do. You're very welcome.

POTSDAM School boards in Canton and Potsdam voted unanimously Tuesday to pursue a feasibility study that will look at merging the two districts.
Potsdam Superintendent Patrick H. Brady said the study is expected to cost around $50,000.
To cover its half of the costs, should they not be successful in obtaining an efficiency grant from the Department of State, Potsdam has received $25,000 in member-item aid from Sen. Joseph A. Griffo. Canton is also seeking a state grant to help fund the study.
Mr. Brady said that both he and Canton Superintendent William Gregory were optimistic that state Sen. Patricia A. Ritchie, R-Heuvelton, would come through with a similar grant for Canton, but Mr. Brady said its his understanding she is not providing Canton with funding for their share of the grant.
It appears thats not going to be the case, he said.
Should the districts receive an efficiency grant, Mr. Brady said the local share for each district would drop from approximately $25,000 to roughly $12,500.
The $12,500 would be the districts share and I see the Griffo money being used for that, he said.
Should the study end up not costing more than $25,000, Mr. Brady said, the additional $12,500 remaining could be used for overages or extra costs.
Mr. Brady said the next steps will be to apply for the efficiency grant, create a request for proposals and then hold a joint board meeting, this time likely in Canton.
He said that meeting would probably happen next month and include the formation of a steering committee to help move us through the process, as well as interviews with firms that have submitted proposals for the study.

Dela-Vee.Those are perfect.What really stands out about your pies, to me, is the impeccable sense of visual composition.Your pies look like they are absolutely delicious, but the form transcends that. They are imposssibly balanced with a true sense of spontaneity. the basil looks like fallen leaves in a forest, random and precise simultaniously. Truly the work of an artist. A feast for the eyes.BravoAZ
Just wanted to add,those new pies look superb.Even if you were not truly happy with the flour,your skills sure make up for any short comings.

commandlinefu.com is the place to record those command-line gems that you return to again and again.
Delete that bloated snippets file you've been using and share your personal repository with the world. That way others can gain from your CLI wisdom and you from theirs too. All commands can be commented on, discussed and voted up or down.
If you have a new feature suggestion or find a bug, please get in touch via http://commandlinefu.uservoice.com/
You can sign-in using OpenID credentials, or register a traditional username and password.
First-time OpenID users will be automatically assigned a username which can be changed after signing in.
Every new command is wrapped in a tweet and posted to Twitter. Following the stream is a great way of staying abreast of the latest commands. For the more discerning, there are Twitter accounts for commands that get a minimum of 3 and 10 votes - that way only the great commands get tweeted.

Shorter, easier to remember version of cmd#7636
NTP is better, but there are situations where it can't be used. In those cases, you can do this to sync the local time to a server.
Requires you to have password free login to remote host ;)
Requires xclip and notify-send (If you want to put into clipboard and be notified when action is completed).
DATE=$(date +%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S)-$(($(date +%N)/10000000));
HOST="ssh host of your choice";
DEST="destination folder without trailing slash";
URL="URL for file if uploaded to web enabled dir ie.
import -window root png:- | ssh $HOST "cat > $DEST/screenshot_$DATE.png";
echo $URL | xclip; notify-send -u low "Screenshot Taken" "Entire screen.\nCopied to clipboard"
No command substitution but subshell redirection
This version uses read instead of eval.
It's quite easy to capture the output of a command and assign it in a shell's variable:
day=$(date +%d)
month=$(date +%m)
But, what if we want to perform the same task with just one program invocation? Here comes the power of eval! date(1) outputs a string like "day=29; month=07; year=11" (notice the semicolons I added on purpose at date's custom output) which is a legal shell line. This like is then parsed and executed by the shell once again with the help of eval. Just setting 3 variables!
Inspired by LinuxJournal's column "Dave Taylor's Work the Shell".
I liked vaporub's suggestion, here a little simplification of the sed command.
Line can be modified as needed. This considers weekdays to be Mon-Fri. If run any working day it'll provide a parameters for the next working day for "at".
"beep" provided as a sample command.
This can be modified easily to include wait time. If you need something to run "D" days after today:
# D=4;if [ $(date +%u --date="${D} days") -lt 5 ];then AT="+${D} days";else AT="next monday";fi; echo "beep" | at noon ${AT}
Improved version of command #8425.
This way, the default browser is used, as opposed to Firefox.
If you are stuck behind a firewall and want to synchronize time with another server but you do not want to port forward NTP (which uses UDP) then this command is handy. It gets the time from a server and sets the local time. It is not that accurate but I can live with a second or so drift.
"infix" version in bash (4.x+)
Remove -v to make it silent.
BTW: The OP forgot to use "cat" and "nmap" ;-) I had a good laugh though.
QR codes are those funny square 2d bar codes that everyone seems to be pointing their smart phones at.
Try the following...
qrurl http://xkcd.com
Then open qr.*.png in your favorite image viewer.
Point your the bar code reader on your smart phone at the code, and you'll shortly be reading xkcd on your phone.
URLs are not the only thing that can be encoded by QR codes... short texts (to around 2K) can be encoded this way, although this function doesn't do any URL encoding, so unless you want to do that by hand it won't be useful for that.
This backup function preserve the file suffix allowing zsh suffix aliases and desktop default actions to work with the backup file too.
1. you don't need to prepend the year with 20 - just use Y instead of y
2. you may want to make your function a bit more secure:
buf () { cp ${1?filename not specified}{,$(date +%Y%m%d_%H%M%S)}; }
buf myfile.txt
This is useful when you are making small but frequent changes to a file. It keeps things organised and clear for another administrator to see what changed and at what time. An overview of changes can be deduced using a simple:
ls -ltr
This is useful when watching a log file that does not contain timestamps itself.
If the file already has content when starting the command, the first lines will have the "wrong" timestamp when the command was started and not when the lines were originally written.
This is freaking sweet!!! Here is the full alias, (I didn't want to cause display problems on commandlinefu.com's homepage):
alias tarred='( ( D=`builtin pwd`; F=$(date +$HOME/`sed "s,[/ ],#,g" <<< ${D/${HOME}/}`#-%F.tgz); S=$SECONDS; tar --ignore-failed-read --transform "s,^${D%/*},`date +${D%/*}.%F`,S" -czPf "$"F "$D" && logger -s "Tarred $D to $F in $(($SECONDS-$S)) seconds" ) & )'
Creates a .tgz archive of whatever directory it is run from, in the background, detached from current shell so if you logout it will still complete. Also, you can run this as many times as you want, if the archive .tgz already exists, it just moves it to a numbered backup '--backup=numbered'. The coolest part of this is the transformation performed by tar and sed so that the archive file names are automatically created, and when you extract the archive file it is completely safe thanks to the transform command.
If you archive lets say /home/tombdigger/new-stuff-to-backup/ it will create the archive /home/#home#tombdigger#new-stuff-to-backup#-2010-11-18.tgz Then when you extract it, like tar -xvzf #home#tombdigger#new-stuff-to-backup#-2010-11-18.tgz instead of overwriting an existing /home/tombdigger/new-stuff-to-backup/ directory, it will extract to /home/tombdigger/new-stuff-to-backup.2010-11-18/
Basically, the tar archive filename is the PWD with all '/' replaced with '#', and the date is appended to the name so that multiple archives are easily managed. This example saves all archives to your $HOME/archive-name.tgz, but I have a $BKDIR variable with my backup location for each shell user, so I just replaced HOME with BKDIR in the alias.
So when I ran this in /opt/askapache/SOURCE/lockfile-progs-0.1.11/ the archive was created at /askapache-bk/#opt#askapache#SOURCE#lockfile-progs-0.1.11#-2010-11-18.tgz
Upon completion, uses the universal logger tool to output its completion to syslog and stderr (printed to your terminal), just remove that part if you don't want it, or just remove the '-s ' option from logger to keep the logs only in syslog and not on your terminal.
Here's how my syslog server recorded this..
2010-11-18T00:44:13-05:00 gravedigger.askapache.com (127.0.0.5) [user] [notice] (logger:) Tarred /opt/askapache/SOURCE/lockfile-progs-0.1.11 to /askapache-bk/tarred/#opt#SOURCE#lockfile-progs-0.1.11#-2010-11-18.tgz in 4 seconds
Really this is very robust and foolproof, the only issues I ever have with it (I've been using this for years on my web servers) is if you run it in a directory and then a file changes in that directory, you get a warning message and your archive might have a problem for the changed file. This happens when running this in a logs directory, a temp dir, etc.. That's the only issue I've ever had, really nothing more than a heads up.
This is a simple alias, and very useful as it works on basically every linux box with semi-current tar and GNU coreutils, bash, and sed.. But if you want to customize it or pass parameters (like a dir to backup instead of pwd), check out this function I use.. this is what I created the alias from BTW, replacing my aa_status function with logger, and adding $SECONDS runtime instead of using tar's --totals
function tarred ()
local GZIP='--fast' PWD=${1:-`pwd`} F=$(date +${BKDIR}/%m-%d-%g-%H%M-`sed -u 's/[\/\ ]/#/g'
[[ ! -r "$PWD" ]] && echo "Bad permissions for $PWD" 1>&2 && return 2;
( ( tar --totals --ignore-failed-read --transform "s@^${PWD%/*}@`date +${PWD%/*}.%m-%d-%g`@S" -czPf $F $PWD && aa_status "Completed Tarp of $PWD to $F" ) & )

The diamond were smaller than they appeared in ad but he loved it........so, oh well
The ring didn't look anything like this picture. It seemed to be a plastic version. The stones were dark and cloudy and the ring looked and felt like it was a plastic decoder ring.
I'll start by saying I like the design, the band is nice and wide- I didn't need a size up. I'm not a fan of the color of the ring which seems to be more of a grayish tone than black. The diamonds are tiny but I figured that for the price. It's just okay.
I just purchased this ring and I am so disappointed. The actual ring do not look anything like the picture. The diamonds are really small compared to the picture. They photoshopped the picture to make the diamonds look bigger. I plan on returning this ring back ASAP! So disappointed at the "O" for this deception.
I was impressed with the ring although I felt it didn't resemble the picture perfectly the delivery time was ok but slower than most companies even with standard shipping Overall everything was nice

Mine arrived last week from Guitar Sanctuary. I love it. I am new to forum and have not figured out the posting of pics yet. Mine is 10 top Trampas green.
talking about the 408's...
Welcome and congrats! To post pictures you first need to host the photo somewhere - I like to use Tinyurl.com for single photos or Flickr.com if I want to store a lot of photos. Once you upload the photo, you post the photo link in between image tags, which are [ i m g] url [ / i m g ], but without the spaces. Sorry its hard to explain. Hope that helps!

Mine arrived last week. Unfortunately I have not had a chance to play it live through an amp yet. Playing it through my Mustang Floor at home, I will say that the single coils are quite strong and there certainly is a variety of sounds here. Nice not to have the volume drop when you switch to single coil. Love the Trampas Green finish!
Im still contemplating getting one but then again I want a lot of guitars right nown

Gah, so jealous. Desperately want either an MT in Faded Blue Jean or Mahogany in Charcoal. Rosewood necks. One day!
This one (the one on his leg) is waiting for me to pick up at my dealer after a successful negotiation that wrested it from Paul. I heard it played by both Paul and Nicky Moroch through a bunch of amps and it sounded great:

My "Frosty" should ship tomorrow. STD w/ Rosie WF neck. Can't wait to compare him to Abby!
I accidentally bought a 408 Standard Stoptail this week, incoming!
Ted Club President
I've never liked the 513 and that one guitar covering so many sounds is something I never liked, until.... I got my hands on a 408 during the Experience. there's a Std with rosewood neck on my wish list.
Something like that!
On the dealer's eBay listing, I made an offer. I got some sort of error message or something that made me think that the offer was below the limit they set to automatically refuse the offer. So I moved on and forgot about it, and kept on searching and thinking about it.
Then the next day, I got an email saying the offer was accepted and another email with the invoice.
I was like "hmm, I guess I just bought a 408!" LOL...

just perfect
I bought these in white and they are just great. real light weight, great for summer and spring. true to size. I wear a 6 and they fit perfect ,I have slim legs and they fit real nice and tight all the way to the ankle , I hate loose legs. I just reorder too more colors. I will tell you that they are about 3 inches shorter than on the model but I like that too, not quite capri's but shorter than the ankle so they look great with a little heel
