What sets Lynch's coaching method apart is his unique, collective approach. Coaches learn to teach, guide, and motivate in a more reciprocal relationship with athletes. Respect and authority are earned not by a title or by disciplinary measures but by a clear vision and effective communication that prompts athletes to exert maximum effort toward their shared goals and develop their own decision-making skills -- all of which has a direct performance pay-off.

In the Winhec presentation on XPS document performance optimization, a simple program XpsStat is introduced to analyze XPS documents.
Given an XPS document, XpsStat generates four or five tables in HTML format:
The program has three command line options:
The program is written using .Net 3.0 XPS related API and some direct parsing of ZIP container. It supports both interleaved and non-interleaved XPS files.
Here is the binary: http://blog.fengyuan.com/XpsStat.exe

Quote: As for firsts, here's another one. I have a better chance of determining the outcome of Scott Peterson's trial than I do of determining where Jeanne will make landfall.
Quote: Quote: As for firsts, here's another one. I have a better chance of determining the outcome of Scott Peterson's trial than I do of determining where Jeanne will make landfall. So, Colleen...out of curiosity, what are your predictions for the Scott Peterson trial?
Quote: So, Colleen...out of curiosity, what are your predictions for the Scott Peterson trial?
Quote: Skeet I notice you do not have Jeanne making a landfall. Is that right for me to assume on your forecast? Your site is awesome.
Quote: At the end of the last thread, Ed in VA posted that climatology shows that in September, cat 1 and 2 storms never hit FL from this position. True, but what if she is a cat 3 ?
Quote: I think it's actually EYEWALL replacement cycle. Essentially the same thing, I guess...
Quote: ............do the best you can to redirect your reaction to the situation into constructive activities and thoughts. Hard to do, easy to say, but it is the only thing a human can do to make it better. I am stressed as much as anyone, and I admit it, but I try to counter that stress by participating in this forum, learning as much as I can about the forces at work, and maybe most importantly, preparing and executing a plan of action that will give me the best opportunity not only to survive, but to minimize my own property loss. Beyond that, I try and see the humor in the situation, you know, comic relief. It really does help me and I would suspect others such as yourself. I worry about the things I can do something about and do my darndness to avoid worrying about the things I cannot affect. Try to convert your stress and frustration into something positive. *Finding* that positive substitute is both challanging and believe it or not, reduces the stress by diverting your attention to positive actions and thoughts.
Quote: Why do people return plywood? Even if you don't have to put it up, there's always the next storm to worry about...never understood that. 2:00 advisory is out...she's still 105 mph and further strengthening is possible...pressure 966mb. 25.8N 70.0W. Bad news is she's moving W at 6 mph...when is the northward turn supposed to start?
Quote: I don't think you can return plywood. thankfully I only have a couple of sheets. I DO NOT like the NOGAPS model anymore.
Quote: Hmmm, check out this link: NHC Floater Add in the forecast plot points. Do you get a due west storm into Lake Okechobee as a Cat 3!?!?!?! Did I just get a preview of the 5:00 forecast??
Quote: I'm buying what you're selling...I thought I was losing my mind...
Quote: trying to understand all of this from the WV loop... the big brown thingie I assume is the ridge? In its current position it looks to me like it would steer to GA. Is it supposed to move further south? Thanks for any assist in better understanding all this craziness.
Quote: Has Jim Cantore from TWC shown up yet? When he does, we will all know where she is heading..
Quote: >>> Is the what would turn her north as opposed to going west? I don't see anything in FL that would keep her from going across the state if that upper area keeps pushing south. key is that the ridge is forecast to lift...i think that forecast is going to be revised a bit...i think scotts landfall looks good. Well, all things being equal, it wouldn't. The ridge is what is going to keep Jeanne moving mostly west for the next 24 hours. However, the ridge is forecasted to lift, which will allow Jeanne to begin the northward turn...timing is everything. I'll be putting out my forecast (more of a guesscast) within the next hour...unfortunately it will be a CAT III strike in the middle of the state . More to follow.
Quote: Does anyone know if there is a recon scheduled any time soon for Jeanne?
Quote: I'd like to know what happened to the 12Z GFDL run on Jeanne, I can't find it in the usual place...

CLEVELAND (AP) — The Dallas Mavericks spent most of Monday afternoon playing as if they had a point to prove. They spent the final minutes barely hanging on for a narrow victory.
The Mavericks squandered nearly all of a 24-point lead before finally subduing the Cleveland Cavaliers for a 102-97 win. What appeared to be an easy day turned into a white-knuckler for Dallas coach Rick Carlisle, whose team bounced back from its worst performance of the season in a home loss to Portland on Saturday.
"We did a good job of holding them off at the end," Carlisle said. "We got it done. That's the bottom line."
Monta Ellis scored 22 points, Shawn Marion added 18 and the Mavericks had six players in double figures, but the game was in doubt until the final seconds.
Trailing 100-97 with 2.8 seconds remaining, the Cavaliers were called for a five-second violation when Jarrett Jack failed to get the ball inbounds. Ellis put the game away with two free throws with 1.1 seconds left.
Carlisle called Saturday's loss, in which the Mavericks trailed by 38 points early in the fourth quarter, "beyond embarrassing." And while Monday's game had too much drama, Carlisle was happy to get out of town with a win.
"It's the NBA," he said "It's supposed to get hairy."
"This was a big bounce-back win from an embarrassing loss the other day," Ellis said. "We'll be a great team if we continue to play like that with our back against the wall when we face adversity."
Kyrie Irving led Cleveland with 26 points. Luol Deng, acquired from Chicago on Jan. 7, scored 20 points in his first home game with the Cavaliers while Anderson Varejao had 18 points with 21 rebounds.
Dirk Nowitzki scored 17 points and DeJuan Blair added 13 for the Mavericks.
Dallas built a 59-35 lead late in the second quarter and maintained a double-figure lead for most of the second half before the Cavaliers rallied. Cleveland cut the lead into single figures early in the fourth quarter. The Cavaliers got the lead to 91-89 on Deng's 3-pointer, but Irving missed a jumper and a 3-point attempt on the same possession when Cleveland had a chance to tie or take the lead.
A basket and two free throws by Ellis followed by Marion's steal and score pushed the lead to 97-90 with 1:35 to play. Cleveland cut the lead to 98-95, but two free throws by Jose Calderon with 11.1 seconds remaining pushed the lead to five. Varejao's basket with 5.7 left made it 100-97.
Ellis missed two free throws with 2.8 seconds left and gave Cleveland one last chance. The Cavaliers called timeout, but Carlisle put 6-foot-10 center Brandan Wright on Jack, who couldn't get off the pass on a play that was designed to get Irving the ball.
Cavaliers coach Mike Brown thought Irving was open in the far corner on the other side of the floor.
"I don't know if we've ever been that wide open before at the end of games on a situation like that," he said. "Jack just couldn't see him."
"It was going to be a tough pass," Irving said. "It was a crucial turnover. Whether I was open or not doesn't matter. We have to move on and get ready for our next game."
The Cavaliers went 3-2 on a road trip to the west coast but struggled in the first game of five straight at home. Cleveland led briefly in the first quarter, but Dallas used a 9-0 run late in the first quarter to break a 21-all tie. Dallas shot 55 percent from the field in the first half.
Marion and Blair both made all five of their shots in the first half. Marion scored 14 points while Blair had 11. Marion made his first shot of the third quarter before finally missing a 3-point attempt from the corner. He scored three points and made only one of six shots against Portland.
Blair missed his first shot attempt in the third quarter and was hit with a technical later in the period after being called for a foul while trying to grab a rebound.
Irving scored 18 points in the second half.
Deng, a two-time All-Star, will face the Bulls for the first time since the trade on Wednesday. Cleveland is 3-3 with Deng in the lineup.
The Mavericks bench outscored Cleveland 33-8. Dion Waiters, who averages 14.8 points, was scoreless in 17 minutes for Cleveland.
Mavericks center Samuel Dalembert left the game early in the third quarter with a strained left shoulder. He was taken to the locker room and didn't return.
NOTES: Cavaliers F Anthony Bennett, the No. 1 pick in the 2013 draft, didn't play for the fourth straight game. … Cleveland Indians manager Terry Francona watched the game seated next to Mavericks owner Mark Cuban behind Dallas' bench. … The Mavericks are 11-4 against Eastern Conference teams this season. Seven of their 11 games before the All-Star break are against the East, including the next three versus Toronto, Brooklyn and Detroit. … G Devin Harris was scoreless in his second game of the season for Dallas. He made his season debut Saturday after missing the first 41 games because of surgery on his left foot.

I need to get a laptop for a job i'm doing and don't see the reason for buying a macbook when i guess a pc lappy will do the same job but cheaper (although prove me wrong if you can!). All the lappy is going to do is run resolume and a few peripheral progs. Its never going to be used as an everyday laptop, so its purely for visual sets. I'm out of touch with lappys as i've used macbooks for a while, so have no idea on good brands or custom build co's. I guess i'm looking at a top spec or 1 down with spec of something like below, I don't have any idea which are the best gfx cards either so any advice would be cool... i7 processor (sandy? or is an ivy bridge overkill and overpriced?) ssd drive min 8gb ram pref 16gb 2gb gfx 15" non glossy screen DVI/vga out anything else should look out for? with a blackmagic usb3 capture dongle cheers
Almost no laptops work with the USB3 Blackmagic stuff. people have reported success with a MSI GE620DX so you might want to try one of them. personally i'd get a mac.
Why would you tempt people to start another stupid discussion mac versus win? Or you really want mac but can not afford it and seek for comfort and justification? Could you, please edit your first statement.
this isn't a mac vs pc debate, its a 'i used to use pc's then switched to primarily using macs about 5 years ago so i'm behind on the latest spec's/decent lappys' We spec the right kit for the right job, in this case why spend more on something when i can get a pc laptop which has basically the same spec's for a decent amount less. As i'm using resolume its not going to make any difference whether it has an apple or a windows logo on the front, the output will be the same. so therefore i won't change my initial statement as your reading into it what you want to see. "Or you really want mac but can not afford it and seek for comfort and justification?" nope not the case at all. if i wanted a macbook then i'd get one as budget isn't a problem. I've bought in the last year 3 x macs and 2 x very high spec rackmounted pc's. depends on whats right for the job, but there's no point in spend money unnecessarily as we're living in austere times!
We have a Samsung RF711 i7 laptop USB3 2 drives etc - it works quite happily with the USB3 BM Intensity shuttle.
If you search for Intel roadmap, you will find publicly released information on processor and chipset upgrades, and closer to the release date, the processor prices. Would assume the same for AMD/ATI and Nvidia. After the chips are released, there will be benchmarks. Unfortunately we suffer from benchmarkship - some benchmarks are designed to play on the strengths of one chip and the weakness of competitors. I believe Resolume makes use of the GPU, so it might be best to invest in the most powerful mobile GPU with the largest and fastest GPU memory supported. The laptop makers may not put the top GPU with a lesser CPU. But you could do that with a Shuttle or like. Intel has chosen not to compete in the performance GPU marketplace, that leaves ATI and Nvidia. Also a good idea to look at the speeds and feeds of the chipset that connects the CPU, GPU, and IO. With a Shuttle or equivalent, you can start optimizing multiple display solutions and 3d even. Expect to spend more on a high spec GPU than the entire rest of the box An SSD will improve your life at a price. You might ask Avenue developers about the impact of CPU main memory size and performance, as well as the CPU cache. They have their own forums. Laptops will always be limited by cooling over a Shuttle or similar small form factor chassis, and price too.

I'd like to be able to turn my screen off from command line.
I know there's the keyboard shortcut ctrl+⇧+⏏ but I want to do it from a shell script or remotely.
Is there a way?
I'd like to be able to turn my screen off from command line. I know there's the keyboard shortcut ctrl+⇧+⏏ but I want to do it from a shell script or remotely. Is there a way? |
While I haven't been able to find a command that will sleep the display natively, there is an app you download that will do it. There are two options from here.
Hope this helps! |
In OS X 10.9, you can simply do Escalated privileges don't seem to be required (at least with recent versions of OS X), but if you get a message about inadequate privileges, you could do Based on feedback from commenters, this is not available in OS X 10.8 or earlier. |
The following script will do the job (in Leopard and later), but it must be run with sudo: The premise is that pmset can set a time until display sleep, but the problem is that a value of 0 turns the feature off, rather than setting the delay to zero, and a value of 1 is a full one minute delay. The magic here is that a value of 2^31 seems to be stored as negative zero, which magically functions as "turn the display off immediately". In Tiger and earlier, a different magic number was needed, because a different bit-sized variable was used internally to store the delay, in minutes, until the display turns off. This mimics the behavior of control-shift-eject, and can be used on MacBook Airs without an eject key.
Here's a simple shell script that will do it.
This will run/start whatever settings you have enabled for Screen Saver on that computer. |
Run the following command to execute a short AppleScript that puts the display to sleep:
The command name suggests that it might put the entire system to sleep under some circumstances, but I could not make that happen in limited testing: I tested it with a shell script I started shortly before executing this command, and that was running for a few minutes until I "awoke" the system. It had continued to print output during the entire time. |
Really hope this answer isn't too off the beaten track. My favourite way to sleep, restart, shut down - and most importantly lock - a Mac is using Alfred (the app launcher). It doesn't require any scripts, knowledge of scripts or use of terminal, which is brilliant. However, if you specifically WANT to use terminal, this probably isn't the solution for you. |
You could use the
(requires root) |
Well, this is an old one, but it seems there aren't really good answers for this question anywhere. I've gotten an AppleScript to work, though it requires a third-party, unmaintained, and un-registrable app—Extra Suites. It can be downloaded on the developer's old website. Here's the code: I've also incorporated it into an Alfred Workflow. Hope this is useful to some! -Bruce ps: Sorry for the ugly code formatting. I'm not actually a programmer and this is my first time here. |
Using Alfred (free at the AppStore) is a great way to put the display to sleep by just writing: "sleep". Doesn't get simpler than that. Of course Alfred does much more than that, you can also restart, logout, empty trash, lock, shutdown and many more things. |
No need extra app, just use |

Benson, E. F: Mammon and Co. v1. 16 Jun 2013
Edward Frederic Benson (24 July 1867 29 February 1940) was an English novelist, biographer, memoirist and short story writer, known professionally as E.F. Benson. His friends called him Fred. Edward Frederic Benson was the son of the Archbishop of Canterbury and member of a distinguished and eccentric family. After attending Marlborough and King's College, Cambridge where he studied classics and archaeology, he worked at the British School of Archaeology in Athens. One of our greatest humorists, he achieved great success at an early age with his first novel, Dodo (1893). He was a prolific author writing over a hundred books: serious novels, ghost stories, plays and biographies. But he is best remembered for his Lucia comedies written between 1920 and 1939 and other comic novels such as Paying Guests and Mrs Ames. He became mayor of Rye, the Sussex town that provided the model for his fictional Tilling, from 1934 to 1937.

Microscopic growth processes associated with GaN/GaAs molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) are examined through the introduction of a first-order kinetic model. The model is applied to the electron cyclotron resonance microwave plasma-assisted MBE (ECR-MBE) growth of a set of delta-GaNyAs1–y/GaAs strained-layer superlattices that consist of nitrided GaAs monolayers separated by GaAs spacers, and that exhibit a strong decrease of y with increasing T over the range 540–580 °C. This y(T) dependence is quantitatively explained in terms of microscopic anion exchange, and thermally activated N surface-desorption and surface-segregation processes. N surface segregation is found to be significant during GaAs overgrowth of GaNyAs1–y layers at typical GaN ECR-MBE growth temperatures, with an estimated activation energy Es ~ 0.9 eV. The observed y(T) dependence is shown to result from a combination of N surface segregation/desorption processes.

The London Olympics organisation committee kicked off 200,000 hours of testing today in its 2,000m2 testing lab in Canary Wharf.
Led by London Olympics CIO Gerry Pennell, a team of up to 70 people will test all the software in the laboratory. The lab is split into over 50 individual cells that each focus on the software underpinning a different testing job. For instance, there are 35 cells testing the software for different Olympic sports.
When the lab has finished testing, the team will transfer all the software and the hardware to the Olympic venues for onsite testing.
The technology runs everything, from the timing of track events to the logistics of getting athletes around.
Gerry Pennell has experience of major sporting events and was previously director of technology for the 2002 Commonwealth Games in Manchester.
It is not possible to prepare for every eventuality in an event of the size of the Olympics. Former Olympic champion Sebastian Coe, who chairs the London Olympics planning committee, said the test team had to attempt to prepare for the worst. "We know things will happen that we cannot plan for, so we have to get our teams ready."
The security of data is a top priority. According to supplier Atos Origin, when it ran the IT at the last Olympic Games in Beijing, there were between 12 and 14 million data security events that needed to be checked-out every day.
The testing phase comes after two years' work has been completed. The Olympic IT team completed the software designs in 2009 and produced the software in 2010. This year will see the testing phase with the operation phase next year.
Some of the software, such as the volunteer portal, are already up and running.
By the time of the Olympic Games in summer 2012, over 5,000 people would have been involved in the creation and implementation of the technology that underpins the sporting event.
The Olympics IT is being delivered by multiple suppliers. As a result, Pennell's task is managing and integrating the contribution of multiple suppliers, with support from the Olympics main IT partner Atos Origin. He said he is used to managing multiple outsourced service providers, because that is the model that his previous employer, CFS, uses.
Atos Origin first became involved in Olympic IT in 1992 and by the 2004 Olympic Games it was the main partner. It is already planning for the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 2016.
Because Atos has been working on the Olympics for nearly 20 years it has been able to innovate. For example next year's games will see the Olympic data feed data in a standard format for the first time. Athletes, the media and officials will have a mobile application with bespoke content and a system that feeds information to commentators in real-time will be introduced.
Planning and implementing IT in any major project is challenging to say the least. Problems and delays can cost millions of pounds. The Olympic IT team cannot afford any delays and the reputation of an entire nation rests on its success in 2012. But Pennell, who was at the IT helm of Cooperative Financial Services (CFS) during the recent banking crisis, says: "Being a CIO at a bank during the credit crunch was good preparation for a project like this."

Instant iTunes Zen with FM3's Buddha Machine
A little while ago I came across the Buddha Machine by FM3, a Beijing ambient duo.
What they've created is a little box that plays a series of short ambient tracks over and over to create that nice little place of portable Zen. They look great but I wanted one for my computer while I work.
Luckily, FM3 have, available for download, uncompressed versions of the 9 audio loops they use up on their site.
Now all you have to do is load the files into iTunes [or any media player] and hit both the Shuffle AND Continuous button [once] to get an instant and random ambient experience for as long as you like!
Don't forget to set Crossfade time to full so those nice sounds overlap lovingly.

Another outsider, Wisconsin's Walker, tried to soften his image with a big-tent pitch that welcomed more voters. The first governor to survive a recall election, Walker said the answer lies in how leaders communicate with voters. "I think it's not that our beliefs are wrong," said Walker, 45. "I don't think we do an effective enough job of articulating those beliefs and what it means in people's lives." He isn't talking about a 2016 candidacy, of course, but Walker said governors' experiences are typically an advantage. Another tough-talking figure, Christie tried to dodge headlines entirely on his trip to Las Vegas, his first outside New Jersey since Superstorm Sandy battered its coastline. Christie, 50, brushed aside questions about his political future and steadfastly refused approaches from reporters. Instead of a public show, Christie met in private with former Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour, one of the GOP's top strategists and a potential kingmaker in 2016. To be sure, other would-be candidates are eyeing the next presidential race, and it's far too early to draft an exhaustive list of potential contenders. For instance, former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum is keeping his network of supporters in Iowa engaged. And Romney's running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, has returned to his job in Congress while his allies work to make sure he doesn't preclude a presidential bid. Such behind-the-scenes efforts are in stark contrast to Rubio, the 41-year-old, first-term senator from Florida, who is making a post-Election Day trip to Iowa this weekend. Ostensibly, the purpose of Rubio's trip is to attend Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad's birthday party. "It's going to be a great event," Branstad said with a wide grin. The political importance is not lost on anyone, given that Iowa hosts the first presidential caucuses. "Come to Iowa," Branstad urged, "early and often."

Inside my skin
I keep trying to put more intensity in my paintings. To obtain this effect I work on big canvases and use strong colours and contrasts.This is my last collection of paintings for the moment. Since I've started my own business as a jewelry designer, there is no time left to paint. But I keep on gathering ideas and images, and as soon as I find the time I will start using them in new paintings again.

To silence Michelle Malkin is an idea whose time has come. A nonstop depiction of her on mainstream websites as a rabid right-wing Neocon Zionist extremist and especially as the radical right's Asian pitbull did stimulate certain neurons in progressive pleasure circuits, but did nil to propel this truth into the murky skulls of the brain-damaged general public. So when Ms. Malkin made another hurtful attempt to stop progress by writing a column about the "slutification of young girls," progressive truth-seekers had no other choice but to photo-manipulate her face onto the body of a young, nubile lusciously delectable, sumptuous (ahem... excuse us) college co-ed, and to use the result to expose Ms. Malkin as the biggest hypocrite who has ever lived. |
Joseph Stalin: Ms. Malkin would make a fine wife for commissar and we like to see our goods before we have them distributed by the state (but why liberate cow when you can have milk rationed for free?) Nick Denton Gawker Publisher: Yes, of course it's fake! You idiots! It's written in the Marxist code of ethics, that we can do anything we please with the facts as long as it provokes class struggle and advances the Revolution! Alex Pareene, Wonkette: I hereby proclaim that if anyone holds moral standards and fails, that renders all moral standards absolutely useless and unnecessary for everybody else. Ken Layne, Wonkette guest blogger: We generally prefer our idiots to be more useful. This slipshod, slapdash effort with Malkin's head was so pathetic that we must re-assess the cost-benefit ratio of our covert operations. Dan Rather: | |
And although Marxist ethics of class struggle completely justify defaming right-wing reactionaries such as Malkin with fake pictures, the People's Cube takes an uncompromising stand against unprofessional photo manipulation and would never stoop to such debased chicanery and parlor trickery, which is the purview of capitalist amateurs. A full investigation of this dismal failure is being spearheaded by our agents at Reuter's news service. The guilty shall be purged. Our efforts shall be quadrupled. Resistance is futile!
Eric Muller, UNC Law Professor and blogger: Our best propaganda efforts fail mostly because many Americans suffer from a degenerative brain disorder that affects them on a massive scale, resulting in such anomalies as morals, patriotism, or Republicanism. For a moment we hoped that placing Ms. Malkin's head on someone else's bikini-clad body would create a revolutionary situation and we could finally re-educate our stupid compatriots into believing that morality is, in fact, an archaic bourgeois concept that has no place in a progressive multiculturalist society. Oh well. There's always the next time. |
Before this affair can turn around to bite us, we better confess that many on the Left have also had their moments of youthful indiscretion. Therefore, not only must we preemptively and proactively expose our shortcomings of overexposure - it is also our chance to turn a scandal into cash for the Revolution. Be the first to see the upcoming release of "Leftist women gone wild: check out our appara-chicks!"
You'll get:
All this and much, much more!

Department of Public Health Sciences
The Department research portfolio is diverse and collaborative. Our research strategic plan aligns well with those of the College of Medicine. Many of the biostatistics, epidemiology, and behavioral/social sciences research foci are in or applied to the areas of neuroscience, cancer, diabetes, rheumatology, and psychiatry. In addition to the inter-Departmental and inter-College partnerships in research, we have strong intra-Departmental, interdisciplinary collaboration. Please visit the website of each of the faculty members for his/her research areas.
Biostatistics Research
In the area of biostatistical methods development, there is a focus on a variety of areas. Innovative clinical trials designs, such as ones for acute stroke therapeutic trials as well as for early stage cancer trials, and randomized allocation strategies are being developed by the biostatistics faculty in the Data Coordination Unit and the Biostatistics Shared Resources for the Hollings Cancer Center.; Multivariate analysiswith an emphasis on large predictor variable selection and the use of random forests to make selections is a focus of Dr. Wolf's research. Dr. Gebregziabher's research is in longitudinal analysis, in particular, the issue of missingness in such studies. One theme is modeling of informative missingness, where the missingness mechanism must be modeled as well as the longitudinal outcome. Neuroimaging and methods to deal with spatial information in fMRI and missingness in images are also active research areas. Spatial analyses of small area health data, including disease mapping, disease clustering and spatial surveillance of epidemiological data, are the research areas of Dr. Lawson. Bayesian hierarchical modeling for spatio-temporal data, especially the development of latent structure models. And extensions to the modeling of spatially-referenced survival data analysis are also an Dr. Lawson's expertise. Finally, faculty members engaged in a variety of collaborative projects through the Collaborative Unit projects are exploring varied statistical issues arising from many of these studies.
Epidemiology Research
The epidemiology faculty is engaged in surveillance and etiologic research applied to a broad range of health outcomes that includes aging, cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, infectious disease, injury/trauma, neurological disorders, oral health, tobacco and other substance use, and perinatal/reproductive conditions. A cross-cutting theme in common to much of this research is a focus on health disparities. The goal of this novel, independent research is to improve clinical care and advance population health. Further, the faculty is actively engaged in translating knowledge into public health practice through their involvement in a wide range of local, state, and national public health surveillance and disease control activities. In addition to conducting their own investigator-initiated research, epidemiology faculty members are a strong asset to collaborative team science through their collaboration with basic, clinical, and population scientists across the MUSC campus and beyond on research to push the frontiers of biomedical research and public health science.
Health Behavior and Health Services Research
Behavioral Sciences:
Research on behavioral and social processes involves the study of human functioning at the level of the individual, small group, institution, organization, community, or population. Foci include behavioral and social research on health risk behaviors, the development of a behavioral sciences knowledge base, and the development, implementation, evaluation, and dissemination of interventions to prevent and reduce disease incidence, mortality and morbidity.
Health Services Research
The arena of Health Services Research is a multidisciplinary field of scientific inquiry. Health Services Research investigators study how individual behaviors of patients and health services providers, social factors, financing systems, organizational structures and processes, health technologies, and public policy affect access to health care, the quality and cost of health care, and ultimately individual and community health and well-being.

Dog owners busted in South Park
Ian Anderson 6:30 p.m., April 27
This piece of art is called "Quarrel Tree," by Michael David Johnson.
I had been trying to figure out what to do with this piece of art, along the Embarcadero, in San Diego. I was photographing something else, when I noticed a flock of pigeons swooping around, especially after the mock cannon battles would scare them into flight. Then, I saw "evidence" that the pigeons loved the spot next to this piece of art. I waited and waited and finally…got what I was waiting for. I thought the background (pigeons) fit the subject perfectly. Don't you?
It's definitely sort of amazing that all the pigeons managed to fly away form the quarrel (very medieval,"quarrel") at the same time for you to get this shot.
I took a shot of that when I was in SD in March, but with helie-copters over it. :)

ocean hidden under Europa's icy surface may be the most common type in the universe.
Accumulated evidence shows "hidden oceans" are so pervasive in our solar system
as to make them "almost unavoidable," says David Stevenson of the California
Institute of Technology's Geological and Planetary Division.
[At right, Pwyll crater on Europa.
Image produced by Elizabeth Turtle/PIRL/LPL/UA ]
Stevenson described how ice-covered oceans are probably much more common than
Earth's predominately open ocean,during his presentation at the Geological Society
of America meeting in Boston on Nov. 7.
His talk, "Water's Many Forms in the Solar System," synthesized recent evidence
for subsurface bodies of water in the outer satellites. Stevenson was also one
of several planetary scientists who discussed evidence for oceans in the solar
system during the December annual meeting of the American Geophysical Union
(AGU) in San Francisco.
The evidence centers around Jupiter's largest moons — particularly Europa, whose
surface is completely covered with cracked water ice. During Galileo's flyby
of Europa in January 2000, the spacecraft's magnetometer detected a change in
the direction of the satellite's electromagnetic poles from that detected on
previous passes. The change in orientation — which Margaret Kivelson et al.
reported in the Aug. 25, 2000, issue of Science — suggests that the electromagnetic
field is not permanent, but instead is induced by Europa's elliptical orbit
through Jupiter's powerful magnetosphere. An induced field would require some
type of conducting layer underneath but near the surface of the satellite.
In this case, Stevenson says, "the most likely explanation is that Europa has
a salty, global water ocean beneath its ice shell." Others have offered explanations
for the field, but Stevenson says the magnetic induction signal is "remarkably
strong" evidence for an ocean, even though we can't see it directly. "It is
an argument by elimination — nobody has thought of a physically sensible alternative
conductor." He adds jokingly: "Maybe we just haven't been imaginative enough."
Such an ocean would be near the freezing point of water, and enclosed above
by ice and below by ice or rock. It could be anywhere from 10 to 100 kilometers
thick depending on its salinity. Like Earth's ocean, it would be water-dominated
and would contain an electrolyte that conducts the electromagnetic field, though
this would not necessarily be the same type of salts as an ocean-snorkeler tastes
on Earth.
Unlike Earth's ocean, Europa's is both global, encircling the entire satellite,
and completely covered by the surface ice, which is itself probably 20 kilometers
thick. The ocean is kept liquid in part by "tidal heating," in which the satellite's
solid material is flexed by its irregular orbit, causing internal friction.
"Europa's case may be special," Stevenson wrote in Science, "because the tidal
heating may allow liquid water to get closer to the surface, possibly including
occasional eruptions or flows."
Odds are also good that hidden oceans exist elsewhere, even within our own solar
system. Ganymede, Jupiter's largest moon, and Callisto, its second largest,
are two candidates. "They seem to show strong evidence for a liquid layer,"
Torrence Johnson, a scientist at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, said during
the AGU meeting. These oceans would probably be thinner than Europa's and kept
liquid primarily by internal radioactive heat. Pluto, as well as Neptune's moon
Triton, could also house oceans. "Those perhaps are more likely candidates than
we had thought for having liquid water," Johnson said. Also during AGU, Ralph
Lorenz of the University of Arizona's Lunar and Planetary Science Lab presented
work suggesting that Saturn's moon Titan could host expanses of liquid hydrocarbon
on its surface. The Cassini/Huygens mission planned for 2004 should collect
more data about Titan.
"Defined broadly enough, oceans may not be that rare," Stevenson concludes,
but odds are they're covered with ice, making Earth's surface oceans rare in
comparison. Our oceans exist largely because Earth's distance from the sun,
combined with the greenhouse effect of our atmosphere, creates the ideal — and
rare — surface temperature for water to exist as a liquid. "We have come to
appreciate that a liquid-water-dominated layer is not that unusual," Stevenson
says, but that, relatively speaking, "the situation on Earth is. Earth itself
may have had a frozen-over ocean at some point in the past."
Since life as we know it requires liquid water, Stevenson wrote in Science,
"after Mars, Europa remains the most attractive extraterrestrial environment
within our solar system in which to seek evidence of past or present life."
Who knows what form it will take —cut off from solar radiation, it might depend
on volcanism for energy. Regardless, Stevenson writes, "it is conceivable that
these are the most common sites of life in the universe."
"The possibility of a liquid water ocean at depth on these icy satellites is
very exciting and intriguing and may help to explain a host of unusual properties
that have been observed on their surfaces," says Jim Head of the Department
of Geological Sciences at Brown University. "We constantly have to broaden our
horizons beyond our experiences here on Earth in order to overcome prejudices
based on a terracentric view. By comparison, this new perception seems to be
telling us that the environment that characterizes our own home planet is rather
