Cameleon (Software) Might Change Its Colors but Not Its (Q2O/CPQ) Pur...
Cameleon (Software) Might Change Its Colors but Not Its (Q2O/CPQ) Purpose - Part 1
Written By:
Predrag Jakovljevic
November 17 2010
In this fast-moving world, use of
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS)
Cloud Computing
has grown rapidly owing to its straightforward subscription-based pricing model and relatively quick deployment. Nowhere has that been more evident than in the niche
quote-to-order (Q2O)
or configure, price & quote (CPQ) market segment. Indeed,
, and
continue to report notable on-demand software subscription and accounts growth even during these economically depressed days.
Why the Need for SaaS Q2O/CPQ Products?
According to
, a
GFK Group
's product data company, the number of offered products to consumers and businesses has skyrocketed lately. Namely, between 2005 and 2008, the number of new high-tech products launches has tripled. These mushrooming physical products also come bundled with sophisticated finely tuned services to address ever more granular market segments and
On the other hand, the average product lifecycle has decreased quite a bit during the same period. Indeed, between 1995 and 2005, the average usability of manufactured goods has decreased from 4.2 years to 3.1 years. Moreover, mass customization of products has boomed to such degree that, e.g., for
MINI Cooper Clubman
, total possible variations have surpassed 350,000. Customers not only want customized products and services, but some even believe that "self-service is the best service."
Consequently, marketers face increased costs for new product and service launches with limited ability to react to the constantly shifting market trends. For example, an insurance company requires 2,000 man-days and over one year on average to launch a new offering in a "pedestrian" manual way. A similar situation occurs when a software or hardware vendor offers many possible combinations of modules (some of which are interdependent) bundled with a plethora of licensing options and service & support tiers.
In other words, the times to create and update offerings are unforgivably too long, while product launch maintenance costs are too high. These constraints drive down marketing creativity, in addition to inconsistent marketing toolkits being disseminated through diverse channels.
On the other hand, sales people do not really know how best to match an abundance of offerings with exacting customer needs. Indeed, a telecommunication provider's product and service offerings entail more than one million combinations of cell phones, calling plans (e.g., unlimited minutes, transferable minutes, roaming options, etc.), and plan options (e.g., family plans, small business plans, etc.).
Product managers are thus often involved in too many quotes and sales cycles, instead of thinking of ways how to improve their company offerings. The lack of institutional product knowledge can cause errors, especially during
new product introductions (NPI)
. Needless to say, long quote-to-cash cycles due to data re-keying and missing information are detrimental in many ways.
Last but not least, customers are increasingly reluctant to interact with (often aggressive and sometimes clueless) sales people.
's report from March 2010 that cites an 11 percent increase in online purchases in 2009 vs. 2008 in Western Europe is strong evidence of customers' preference to be self-sufficient.
What About the Traditional Configurators?
Some might rightfully wonder why traditional
best-of-breed product configurators (i.e., by
Cincom Systems
, etc.) and configurator modules within
enterprise resource planning (ERP)
product lifecycle management (PLM)
products could not help with the abovementioned challenges. For one, most of these products were oriented towards engineering departments, and are thus not amenable to less engineering savvy sales folks and customers/consumers.
Rudimentary Web-enablement of these products doesn't equip users to today's nimble
business-to-consumer (B2C)
business-to-business (B2B)
electronic commerce (
) . Moreover, most configuration solutions lack the product lifecycle management's "cradle-to-grave" aspect.
Very few vendors deliver a collaborative solution to organize different modeling tasks from product structure to price books,
product data management (PDM)
product information management (PIM)
, translations into international languages,
marketing collateral creation, etc. In addition, heavy programming is often necessary to manage product variants and/or pricing complexity, which in turn results in lengthy new product launch cycles. This is especially true for large organizations with developed and diverse channels and/or higher product complexity.
Last but not least, since current modeling tools are made for IT people rather than for business teams, customers' self-sufficiency on product models maintenance is limited. In other words, the software vendor is often required for further (costly) enhancements or updates. For more information about the market needs and landscape of Q2O solutions, see
's 2007 article entitled
"The Complexities of Quote-to-order and Possible Solutions."
Enter Cameleon Software
The other day I reconnected with a vendor that has recently changed its name. Namely,
Cameleon Software
is what until last year used to be
Access Commerce
, a Europe-born software vendor whose products empower organizations to accelerate new configurable product and service offering launches and increase sales across their diverse channels.
The company was established in 1987 and has been a public company listed on the Euronext Exchange since 1999. Headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, United States (US), the company today has a global presence, with 130 active corporate customers and end-users in 70 countries. Cameleon Software customers are global enterprises and some industry-leading corporations worldwide.
I met with Access Commerce a few years ago, when the company was penetrating the North American market, in part via alliances with
The partnership with QAD has meanwhile fallen by the wayside after QAD delivered its own configurator module a few years back, although the agreement with Infor for
Infor ERP XA
is still intact.
Today, Cameleon Software is a global and recognized player with a proven track record of success: its annual revenues exceed US$10 million and its products process millions of configurations, quotes, and orders every day. The vendor has also garnered a large systems integrator (SI) community that includes
Logica, Accenture, Capgemini, CSC,
and other players.
As for consulting firms, Cameleon partners with
and other regional firms. Generally speaking, Cameleon is platform agnostic
and integrates with many ERP,
customer relationship management (CRM)
, PLM, and e-commerce solutions. For example, the vendor claims many joint customers with
(a key partner for Cameleon that will join the upcoming
conference as a Gold Sponsor this year),
Reconciling Sales, Marketing, and Channels
As explained earlier, a traditional "product configurator" primarily delivers value to sales teams. But the "next generation" of product configurators must empower organizations to increase sales across all channels and marketing teams to accelerate the launch of new products and/or services. Cameleon Software has thus added a product offerings design aspect to its traditional sales configuration software prowess. In other words:
Cameleon helps
marketing teams
reduce time-to-market for products and services which require complex personalization. The idea is to also reduce the operational costs (in terms of IT and marketing) of new product launches and boost marketing team productivity.
Cameleon helps
sales teams
improve their performance by reducing the Q2O cycle.
More importantly, Cameleon provides a solution that bridges the gap between both populations, resulting in tangible business benefits in both cost reduction and revenue increase. In addition, Cameleon focuses on "business users" within non-IT savvy sales and marketing teams in the following range of market segments: Manufacturing, Telecom, Insurance, High-Tech, Life Sciences, Media, etc. The vendor is also able to address the functional needs and business requirements of both large multinational companies and smaller businesses.
Helping the Design Phase
During the
phase, Cameleon provides help to product managers and the marketing team in their quest to reduce the time needed to create and update product offerings. To that end, Cameleon offers a single collaborative repository for products, prices, and channel data where authorized users can create re-usable product modules and variants, and allocate tasks to different contributors according to their profiles and assignments. In addition, entire sales processes can be executed through customizable
-based user interfaces (UI's) that can be generated "on the fly."
A single repository (i.e., a single version of the truth) with role-based access levels, which is accessible no matter where users are, bolsters marketing effectiveness. Product marketers can use
rich media
objects (e.g., pictures, videos, pdf files, etc.) and make the translation process simpler in such an environment.
Products and services can be modeled as hierarchies. The nested configuration capability addresses problems considering multiple occurrences of the same product or service in a bundled offering (e.g., a subscription plan for each member of a family or a group of people). Users can navigate through these hierarchies in any fashion, as the system automatically remembers the choices made by the user. In addition, Cameleon propagates constraints on users as they continue to navigate through the hierarchy and make further choices.
are used to project a possible choice of product features as to prevent invalid combinations, while
are used to deduce other possible product choices from the selections made by the users. Even the most complex rules and constraints allow any business logic to be expressed via a matrix and to be written in either the proprietary Cameleon script or in Java. The system constantly manages the constraints and rules consistency in the background to improve the customer experience by preventing invalid combinations in real-time.
Even a Business User Can Do It
Business users in product marketing departments can work within a collaborative and graphical environment, and use
features to create relationships between the products (and detect any inconsistencies). They can maintain pricing grids in a matrix form via importing from (and later exporting to)
Microsoft Excel
and illustrate a configuration process with a "tree representation" in few clicks.
Moreover, an easy to adapt product catalog supports many product and service offering structures to accommodate components,
product bundles
, and packages, with no limitation in the number of hierarchic levels. In fact, if necessary, one can, say, add a level between a bundle and a package, as well as other pricing criteria.
Sales processes can be created independently from the product structure, whereby users can quickly create a prototype of a new offering (if necessary, they can copy existing offerings to create similar new ones). Cameleon allows
of product models by distributing new model/product releases with an appropriate packaged content depending on the different channels, understandable and easily usable by business users.
All the business rules regarding pricing, promotion etc. are kept separate from the product hierarchy itself. This separation enables easy modifications in response to competitive feedback from the field. Again, ordinary business users can accomplish all of these tasks without resorting to pesky programming.
Part 2 of this blog post series will continue with Cameleon's role in the sales department and in the channel, as well as with recent events at the company. The article will conclude with an analysis whether the Q2O/CPQ market is sustainable on its own in the long run.
Your views, comments, opinions, etc., about Cameleon and about the Q2O/CPG software category per se are welcome in the meantime. We would also be interested in hearing about your experiences with these software solutions (if you are an existing user) or your general interest in evaluating these solutions as prospective customers in

Cross-coupled NFB for PP Pentode
First, let me apologize for the length of this post but I thought it might be of interest to several members.
I have been using an all-balanced circuit, consisting of 6SL7 LTP splitter with 6AU6 pentode CCS in the tail, 6SN7 differential driver and EL34/6CA7 PP in triode mode. Negative feedback is achieved using cross-coupled partial FB from EL34 plates to 6SL7 plates. This circuit has sufficient open-loop gain to be able to apply a reasonable amount of NFB. Although it's tempting to use a feedback-free circuit with triode output tubes, I need the additional damping for my speakers. In any case, the EL34 isn't quite as "clean" as a true triode, such as 300B, so I consider that the odd order harmonics need to be suppressd with NFB. The results are very good and there is no risk of instability, since the OPT is outside the loop. I was wondering if a similar design could be used with the EL34s in pentode mode, to get almost triple the output power. My OPTs don't have UL taps, so that option is out. However, they can give the 3.5k p-p loading required for pentode mode. The big drawback with pentodes is that they have a very high output impedance (15x that of the same tubes in triode mode). This means a lot morfe NFB is required to get an acceptable damping factor. The usual global loop can be used but it has the disadvantage of introducing instability problems that have to be fixed with correctional networks and that is very dependant upon the quality of the OPT. My cross-coupled NFB circuit avoids most of the instability problems but it cannot really provide enough gain to be able to pile on the amount of NFB required withou ending up with a very low closed-loop gain. Input sensitivity would end up at about 1.6v, which is not enough for my purposes. However, it occurred to me that, by using the 6SL7 as an LTP splitter, I was losing half the gain from the first stage. So, What if a separate splitter were to be used as a front end? The 6SL7 could then give its full gain and the input sensitivity would be nearer my requirements. I could redeploy the 6AU6 in triode mode as a concertina splitter for this purpose, since it would no longer be needed as a CCS. In fact, the 6SL7 would be probably be better connected in push-pull mode than differential mode, more appropriate for its role as the input to a partial feedback circuit. At teh same time, I could add an additional local NFB loop between the 6SN7 and 6SL7 plates, to assist with balance and to make the step network between the two stages more effective for NFB stability purposes. The resulting schematic is attached. I haven't built it yet but it models very well with LTSpice. The power supply, intended to feed both channels, is attached to the post following this one. Sensitivity is 875mv for 45 watts output and DF is about 8. Stability appears to be excellent, band-with is falt from 20Hz to 20kHz and 10kHz square-wave is clean. All these "results" are obtained from the LTSpice model, of course, since I haven't built it yet. However, one of the biggest potential pitfalls, namely, the quality of the OPT, is not a worry since it is outside the NFB loop. Comments welcome! |

I thought more than a dozen stages in an amp was no longer en vogue
Haven't ARC already developed enough amps with similar topology? |

I visited Universal this weekend, and it was a beautiful day in the park on Saturday. You can can see specific reports about http://micechat.com/forums/universal...oto-heavy.html and http://micechat.com/forums/universal...oto-heavy.html and http://micechat.com/forums/universal...post1056406033
There is just so much going on at Universal these days that I find myself overwhelmed trying to report everything.
Now on with the fun stuff
It does seem like they keep pushing the Express Pass out further and further. I am not a fan of having people given the option to buy express BEFORE they have bought their tickets
Yes, Ripsaw is still down... but it will return victorious! lol
Ancient ruin in exotic location or Islands of Adventure? lol
The blow out bridge was open.
Oh this is why! CROWDS... in January!
Line for Butterbeer
Another line for Butterbeer
ANOTHER line for Butterbeer!
So this might be kind of hard to make out, but this is the blow out queue for the Forbidden Journey at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Islands of Adventure at the Universal Orlando Resort in Orlando Florida, USA, planet Earth. Not a fan of it being in Jurassic Park...
Never realized this before, but if you have a seeing eye dog, there is a nice little place you can take your pooch where it is free of people and can relieve itself.
Touches like this make Islands of Adventure special.
Ripsaw rehab.
It was a great day in the parks! Got to love January!

Does anyone have a more exact list of the groceries sold in the Trading Post? This may sound a bit anal... I am just trying to "persuade" the wife to go with camping over a resort hotel. We also want to try not to get a rental car, otherwise I'd just head to a grocery store. Flying In. Ken
They have a pretty good supply of basic groceries, but it would be pretty expensive to do all your grocery shopping there. There is at least one grocery store that delivers to the fort, but I can't remember which one. Do a search on this forum for grocery stores that deliver, this has been discussed several times and it might be in the FAQ section. I'm sure there are quite a few posters who will be able to help you.
Here is a starter list. http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2830437&highlight=prices This is from allears \ The Settlement Trading Post is across from Trail's End and Crockett's Tavern. It features: Fort Wilderness souvenirs, Disney Merchandise, pin trading, Health & Beauty Supplies, Photo Supplies, Sporting Goods, Kid's Goods, Women's Goods, Baby Goods, beer and other alcoholic beverages, and groceries (milk, bread, juice, cereal, sandwich meats, bacon, sausage, eggs, canned vegetables, frozen dinners, pizza, stuff for spaghetti, chips, hot dogs, etc.) The Meadow Trading Post is located at the Meadow Recreation Area in the center of Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort. It has a small parking lot available for cars across the street from the store. It features the same items as The Settlement Trading Post, but it also has: camping supplies (including propane tanks, sewage hoses, etc.); a deli, video rental, and an expanded selection of Fort Wilderness souvenirs. The Meadow Trading Post is also easier to navigate in if you are using a wheelchair or electric conveyance vehicle.
I think you might be better off with gardengrocer.com. Just do your shopping online before you visit and set up a delivery time.
Have lots of the basic things, breakfast fixings, picnic, etc. Was just looking at prices for kicks, and you don't want to do your shopping there - just odds & ends forgotten items! Here now, but can't go take pictures - sorry
We figure we will do about 4 dinners and 4 breakfast, with the rest of the meals on property (Princess, Character, Epcot). That being said, I checked the prices at those online shopping stores that deliver and it doesn't seem worth it with the prices. Gallon of Milk 4.59, ect. Then you add on the $20-$30 fee(s).... Would it really be cheaper then the fort store? What I'm getting at is the prices are marked up at the online/delivery places + the delivery fee, you're not coming out ahead, or much nayway depending on how much you buy.Maybe I'm off on this or missing something here. Let me add, if they don't carry something, then it might be worth the online grocery... but I don't know that without the list of items at the post. Ken
Instead of buying food at the Fort stores or delivery I'd get the dining plan. I bet that would persuade the Mrs.
I'll add that they do have Lunchables there, too. That one item completely saved a day for us last week, so it is definitely a good place to go in an "emergency".
You might also want to check the companies that drive you to and from the airport...I know when we thought the grocery delivery prices were high, there were several that offered 1 free stop at a grocery store before they drop you off at the resort!
Crocketts tavern has some take out food for breakfast and dinners. They have some breakfast sandwiches and some other stuff. I know for dinners they have a fried chicken dinner that my family of four could not finish. And i believe it was around $15. Pretty good pizza too. All you do is walk up order and bring it back to your camper or cabin. That may be an option for a couple dinners and breakfasts. That with picking up some eggs and bacon at the outpost to cook at the cabin would be cheaper than renting a car or paying for grocery delivery.
Here are some proces I got in October: (I took pictures, but it's quicker to write the prices down than to upload and post the pictures! Thought I had more but I guess not!) $7.95 25 ft light duty extension cord Orange (I wonder if they mispriced it) $7.95 12 ft light duty extension cord White $2.95 60watt bulb (one!) $2.95 1/2 Gallon skim milk (Borden brand) $15.00 6pk beer tins $5.75 single beer bottled $5.95 Smoked ham, 7oz (=198g) $4.95 Washed bagged Romaine Lettuce 7.6oz (= 215 g) I did have a car (amazing rate w/ Dollar rental of $10 a day!), and did make a trip offsite. A couple other options include: - While at Downtown Disney or anywhere near Boardwalk Villas (across from Disney Hollywood Studios), walking across the street to one of the Hess Service Stations for some lower priced staples. - From Downtown Disney, walking to Goodings (or by Goodings, walking north 1 km to Winn Dixie), and getting a cab back w/ groceries (cab to DTD or back to campsite...)
I can add some items to this list: Smuckers uncrustables, $2.50 each Other items I noticed, but not the prices: Hamburger and hot dog rolls, bread otis spunkmeyer muffins individually wrapped smartfood popcorn Chef Mickey Mac N Cheese kit Ice Cream pops
I second Foggy's suggestion about the Hess Stations. They are lower than the Trading Posts at the Fort and you probably find yourself going by either one (DTD or DHS) frequently during your stay. Personally I can confirm their beer prices are reasonable. Bama ED

Overview: Both Denial-of-Service (DoS) and Brute Force Attacks have existed for many years, and many network devices tout the ability to withstand them. However, most of today's DoS attacks target layer 7 (L7) by overwhelming applications with seemingly valid requests and Brute Force programs can send more than one million attempts per second. This paper will discuss how to intelligently mitigate these types of attacks.

The pier was easy to find adjacent to Old Town and near our cruise ship dock. It was a beautiful sunny day, perfect for viewing the scenery from the open deck [there was inside areas as well]. The ship was a great way to see the 'St Lawrence face' of Quebec City and Ile d'Orleans island across the river. We had a creative narrator dressed in 18th Century finery who was very open to questions. It was a great trip.
We had spent two days walking around Quebec city and seeing the sights. Seeing the city from the river was a very nice experience, and a whole new view. I would recommend it to anyone visiting Quebec city.
Absolutely wonderful! The commentary was presented in a very interesting manner. Would highly recommend it.
Excellent views and very informative.
This was a nice tour. It was good to see the surrounding area and the falls without taking a long bus ride.
Anyone traveling to Quebec City for the first time should take this excursion.
First Class.
This tour was a good value for the money. Tour guide was full of information. Views from the river
are wonderful.
Highly Recommended
We very much enjoyed this tour. It was a great perspective of the City of Quebec. Views of the Chateau were fantastic. We particularly enjoyed the tour guide, learned many great facts about the history of the city. I would highly recommend this tour.
Excellent tour.
This is a great cruise to see the city from a different angle.
Tour guide was veryknowledgable. Gave an excellent historical presentation. Loved the period costume!

Muhamer 'Mike' Kulla
Beloved husband, father, brother and grandfather
Muhamer 'Mike' Kulla |
WATERBURY — Mr. Muhamer "Mike" Kulla, 82, passed away peacefully Wednesday, June 26, 2013, at his home in the warmth of his loving family. He was the husband of Pauline (Schedler) Kulla.
Mike was born in Zemblak, Albania, on April 2, 1931, son of the late Belul and Fatime (Bablusha) Kulla. He was a diligent, hard-working foreman at Leverty & Hurley Company for 22 years. He later did maintenance for Waterbury Hospital and began Mike's Lawn Care in Waterbury, which he owned and operated.
He enjoyed spending afternoons tending his garden, and cherished the time he spent with his family and his three beloved grandchildren. Mike had a strong will and fought a long, courageous battle against cancer for many years with the help and support of his family behind him. He will be dearly missed.
Besides his wife, Pauline, of 59 years, he leaves two sons, Michael J. Kulla and Mark Kulla, both of Waterbury; two daughters, Maryann Plourde and her husband, James, of Prospect, and Melinda Owens and her husband, James, of Waterbury; three brothers, Sami Kulla and his wife, Ikbal, of Watertown, Vedat Kulla and his wife, Vera, of Middlebury, and Neshet Kulla and his wife, Nezaqet, of Waterbury; three grandchildren, Angela Plourde, Michael Plourde and Erica P. Kulla; a brother-in-law, Herman Schedler of Germany; a sister-in-law, Johanna Hoffman of Germany; an uncle, Nazmi Kulla of Canada; a former daughter-in-law, Brenda Kulla; and numerous special nieces, nephews and cousins. He was predeceased by his son, Robert Kulla, and his sister, Mukadez Hana.
Mike's family would like to extend their gratitude and give a very special thanks to Dr. Dobkins, Dr. Gobbee, Dr. Sabbath, Dr. Ciampi, the staff at Saint Mary's Hospital, especially the VITAS Hospice Unit, and the staff at the Harold Leever Cancer Center for their great care shown to Mike in his time of need.
Arrangements: A funeral service will be held 10 a.m. Friday at Chase Parkway Memorial/The Albini Family Funeral Home, 430 Chase Parkway, Waterbury. Burial will follow in New Pine Grove Cemetery. Calling hours will be held 5 to 8 p.m. today at the funeral home.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Harold Leever Regional Cancer Center, 1075 Chase Parkway, Waterbury, CT 06708; or VITAS Innovative Hospice Care, 1579 Straits Turnpike, Middlebury, CT 06762.

I purchased box of Pez refills and was glad I found the Candy Store site. Their website was very user friendly and secure. I was curious what condition my candy would arrive in as these candies break easily. To my surprise I received my order quickly and in excellent condition. Great care was taken during packaging the product and the box was very securely taped closed. I even received follow up email asking if I received my order and if I was satisfied. SO glad to have found my new online candy supplier! Pros: Cons: Wish I could get more flavor varieties
Ok, updating your cart...
Sweet! It's in your cart.

The blanket keeps falling off, cold air blows through, you don't have a firm grip on the handle, and you can't see what the baby is doing. No more fumbling with blankets or bulky seat liners to keep your baby warm, dry, and protected. Create a nap time environment while eating out or taking a walk. Continue living your on-the-go lifestyle and create a protected at-home feeling for your baby.

Like eskay said, this is just ill. From the looks of it, N.O.R.E. was ahead of his time and filmed everything during the late 90s and early 2000s. After compiling the footage, here's an eight minute trailer for his documentary, What What. Not sure when this will be released, but hopefully it hits the market sooner than later.

High Times' annual Cannabis Cup went down in Amsterdam last November and Styles P, N.O.R.E., Ghostface Killah, and Scram Jones all made the trek. If you couldn't get pass customs, here's film from their adventure. We're getting high just watching this.
Following the premiere of the track, P.A.P.I. and the crew take it from the nightspot to the courts in their accompanying video. P.A.P.I.'s Student Of The Game album coming soon.
For N.O.R.E.'s entire career he's been a "Nigga on The Run Eating". But for his forthcoming album Student of the Game, he's changing his alias to P.A.P.I. An acronym for "Power Always Proves Intelligence". "Sometimes if you're lost, the best way to find where you're at is to go to the beginning," he explained.

Activated platelets exert a pro-inflammatory action that can be largely ascribed to their ability to interact with leukocytes and modulate their activity. We hypothesized that platelet activation and consequent formation of monocyte-platelet aggregates (MPA) induces a pro-inflammatory phenotype in circulating monocytes.
CD62P+ platelets and MPA were measured, and monocytes characterized, by whole blood flow cytometry in healthy subjects, before and two days after receiving influenza immunization. Three monocytic subsets were identified: CD14+CD16-, CD14highCD16+and CD14lowCD16+. The increase in high sensitivity C-reactive protein post-immunization was accompanied by increased platelet activation and MPA formation (25.02±12.57 vs 41.48±16.81; p?=?0.01), along with enhancement of circulating CD14highCD16+ cells (4.7±3.6 vs 10.4±4.8; p?=?0.003), their percentage being linearly related to levels of CD62P+-platelets (r2?=?0.4347; p?=?0.0008). In separate in vitro experiments, co-incubation of CD14+CD16- cells, isolated from healthy donor subjects, with autologous platelets gave rise to up-regulation of CD16 on monocytes as compared with those maintained in medium alone (% change in CD14+CD16+ cells following 48 h co-incubation of monocytes with platelets was +106±51% vs monocytes in medium alone; p<0.001). This effect correlated directly with degree of MPA formation (r2?=?0.7731; p<0.0001) and was associated with increased monocyte adhesion to endothelial cells. P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) blocking antibody, which abrogates MPA formation, abolished these effects, as did the cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 selective inhibitor NS-398, aspirin and the EP1/EP2-selective antagonist AH6809.
These data suggest that MPA formation, as occurs in the blood under pro-inflammatory conditions, expands the pool of circulating CD14highCD16+ monocytes in a COX-2 dependent manner, and these monocytes exhibit increased adhesion to endothelium. Our findings delineate a novel mechanism underlying the pro-inflammatory effect of platelet activation.

WASHINGTON, D.C.—The U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) announces the opening of the fifth public comment period for the proposed update to its LEED green building program.
The comment period, which will close on December 10, enables the building community to view the most recent draft of the rating systems and provide comments where any substantive changes have been made.
"LEED v4 will have the greatest impact of any rating system we've developed by focusing on building performance and rewarding innovative product manufacturers who offer best in class products," says Scot Horst, Senior Vice President, LEED, USGBC. "LEED v4 will help change the way project teams think, integrate, plan, execute and operate their buildings."
LEED v4 continues to push the envelope on energy efficiency, allocating nearly 20 percent of all points to optimizing energy performance over the stringent ASHRAE 90.1-2010, which would do more to help curb CO2 emissions than any LEED rating system in its 12 year history.
READ: Scot Horst speaks with I&S about the initial pushback against LEED v4, and what the USGBC has learned.
In addition to bringing green building solutions to more market sectors, including data centers, warehouses and distribution centers, hospitality, mid-rise residential, and existing schools and retail, the next version includes more options for projects outside of the U.S., making LEED the common language for sustainability around the globe.

Time to put the poetry back into our prayers
Follow The JC on Twitter
Chazan Jonny Turgel leads a Yom Ha'atzmaut service at Finchley United Synagogue
I love both English and Hebrew poetry, especially sacred Hebrew poetry, which has a very long tradition stretching back to the Bible.
Prose is the medium of everyday speech. Poetry, on the other hand, with its rhythms and cadences, its innate economy of expression and rich and allusive vocabulary, powerfully engages both the emotions and the intellect, stirring one's spirits in response to its beauty and enabling the reader to penetrate to the very core of its ideas.
Poetry is Judaism's preferred medium of expression. Open any Hebrew Bible and one finds that all its words are endowed with musical notes, indicating that it was clearly intended to be chanted, like a song or poem. Attend any synagogue and you will hear the Torah scroll being read to a lyrical chant, with all the rhythms of a poem.
It is the same with the siddur and machzor. The distinguishing feature of a synagogue service is that it is led by a chazan who sings the service melodiously. Indeed, one of the main developments within Orthodox synagogues over the past 30 years has been the introduction of a vast repertoire of new and lively niggunim (melodies) for most of the hymns and prayers, a trend largely inspired by the late Chasidic musician, Shlomo Carlebach, who died in 1994.
The worshippers, likewise, do not merely "recite" the prayers; they also "sing" them; and it is not unusual — especially in smaller, less formal, Orthodox congregations — to hear individual worshippers so ecstatically involved in their prayers that their voices are raised above all those around them. In the larger, more formal, Anglo-Jewish congregations, on the other hand, that is generally regarded as exhibitionism.
The poetic basis of the prayer book becomes obvious when we consider that over one half of it constitutes individual psalms or verses selected from the biblical Book of Psalms. Of the other half, most of the Hebrew hymns and prayers, even including the apparently formulaic blessings, are also endowed with a rhythmic, poetic quality.
As a retired congregational rabbi, I have long been aware that there is a significant proportion of regular worshippers whose Hebrew reading is, to put it delicately, rusty. How, then, can spirituality be nurtured in a situation wherein one's siddur and machzor are not merely closed books, but, in some respects, a source of embarrassment?
So, one of the main objectives of this project was to provide those who could not comprehend the Hebrew text with a user-friendly paraphrase of the major prayers and hymns, written in rhyming English poetry and in a style that, hopefully, they would find inspirational, devotional and informative. This can rarely be achieved by reading even the best of translations, inevitably confined by literalness and set as a crowded printed page.
Prayer is not meant to be mumbo-jumbo. It was clearly intended to be a personal, urgent and spiritually-satisfying exercise of approaching the Almighty and exercising our minds and emotions to express our love of and dependency on Him. Understanding what we are saying is, therefore, essential; and hence the value of these works.
My purpose is certainly not to replace the siddur and machzor, but rather to enhance the liturgical experience. My target readership is anyone with the urge to participate in the act of prayer; anyone for whom the prayer book is, as yet, too challenging, but who nevertheless seeks a stimulus for religious contemplation; anyone who would like to inject some spirituality and meaning into his or her home, especially on a Sabbath or festival, and any synagogue that would like to place into the hands of occasional visitors a devotional manual that conveys more than a flavour of what the congregation is praying at any given moment.
Educators may also find some benefit. Given the very demanding and varied subjects on the Jewish studies curriculum, fluency in Hebrew reading may not be achieved by all pupils. A school or cheder assembly that follows the lines of a regular synagogue service may also prove too challenging for many.
The introduction of these poetic and devotional readings, on the other hand, may well add interest, relevance and inspiration. A place may also be found for them as a starting-point for lessons on the subject of prayer and liturgy, and also among youth groups, especially at schemes where full services are not held.
From Rabbi's Cohen translation of Adon Olam:
Master of the Universe
Who alone was king,
Before His decision
To make anything.
The prayer of man,
Though lowly in station,
Became the crown
For His coronation...
Into His hand
I commit my soul,
During sleep
And waking hours.
Fearlessly, I live my life,
In His great powers.

Rabbi Dr Jeffrey Cohen

So frustrated, somethings up with my quads. It didn't happen acutely, but gradually. I noticed it about 5/6 days ago. There's a tightness/pain in both of my thighs, in the middle quad muscle, smack bang up the middle of my leg. it hurts to press in on this spot, which is about 1 inch squared. It hurts most to sprint, but generally anything involving my quads aggravates it. The left one hurts a lot more then the right, though its's the same type of pain/location in both. The only thing in my training that I can remember that may of caused it is doing sharp sprints at team training after a poor warm-up. It doesn't seem enough to cause injury in my legs, it seems silly, but it's the only thing I can think of. I am a bit of an Owen Hargreaves, I find myself injured easily... Any thoughts? I'm thinking a tendon sprain or something.
Did you just start training again for spring soccer by any chance? Out of curiosity, what is your fitness program away from soccer? Lift weights? Run?
If he's "injured easily" then I'm curious if he needs to get into some kind of strengthening program or identify strength imbalances so he doesn't get injured so often.
Yep, good point. My right and left legs are imbalanced meaning I'm more susceptible to injuries. Maybe you should explain?
Same here, I'm imbalanced front to back and only a recent trip to a physical therapist revealed this. But my hamstrings are waay weaker than my quads and my hip flexors are waay weak as well. This caused a quad injury that went nagging for months. We treated the quad directly which fixed it for a time but the main problem was that the surrounding muscles were weak. To do any action you need complementary muscles to complete the motion or simply hold you stable. If you have muscular imbalances certain muscles compensate for the weaker ones and over time can cause them to give out.
I don't have any muscular inbalances that I know of. Although I hsvn't been to a physio in 2-3 years. I'm not very strong, but I've done bodyweight routines before, but stopped recently after having unsatisfactory gains after probably 2 years work of it. I never focused on nurtition, I just eat well, and a lot of it. Being a teenager with high testosterone etc. It's generally believed that we can gain muscle very easily (bodybuilding sites being my source). Also, I don't do any strength work anymore as I believe that strength/athleticism isn't important at my age. I couldn't be bothered explaining my wholr schedule leading up to my injury, but heres a general outline: Monday: Ball work - intense Tuesday: team training - intense Wednesday: ball work - moderate Thursday: team training - intense Friday: ball work - moderate Saturday: ball work - moderate Sunday: Rest My injury isn't DOMS, it feels different and has lasted too long for 'sore muscles'. I have had injury's in the past that wern't treated well, I pretty much played through them until it subsided. These injuries involved both my hip flexors, which doesn't bother me any more, my left knee, which still hurts a bit when bending on one leg (which I really should get looked at, though it never disturbs me on the field). Also, nearly 3 yearS ago I was diagnosed with severs disease (osgood schlotter but in the heels), which I rested for a few months, but eventually just played through it, and it doesn't bother me anymore, although i can still feel a bit of pain when I press into my heels, and I find my achilles tendon a tad tight sometimes. I
Sounds a bit like when my Quads completely locked up during last fall. I was having an outdoor session and the temperature was "evening cold". I had been drinking quite a bit of coffee and probably not enough water and I didn't stretch after warmup. Then, during a quite intense playing session both of my quads just locked up. I was able to play through rest of the session, but the next day and probably a few days after I had a reasonable amount of pain and had to rest. I'm not going to say that you're not "really injured", but since the pain wasn't acute; it's probably not a muscle strain. Your quads and/or tendons could be inflammated or something like that, and that should be worrying enough. Try to walk yourself a little trip and stretch geeently and see how that feels. Also could try to ice the areas and use anti-inflammatory gel.
Thanks everyone. Injury update: it's healing suprinsingly quickly, no more pain in the right, and none in the left. The only pain I experienc now is an odd tightness in the left one, it feels quite different to stretch when compared to the sensation in the right when I do a basic thigh stretch. I'm very tempted to play tomorrow, but I know I need to give it another week or so until that tightness disapears, because I can see myself reinjuring it if I jump back into it at this stage. Comments?
Go along to the game and see how you are. Try and warm-up, if you're having problems, don't play. Simple!
