Adam Dunn and the Nationals aren't talking extension
Apr 5, 2010, 11:50 AM EDT
Stories all over the place in recent days about Adam Dunn wanting to stay in D.C. Dunn is certainly saying the right things:
This is the place I want to be at. I want to be here. This team is
obviously going in the right direction. I'm all for it. That's why I
don't want to deter anybody away. I like being here.
But Buster reported a few minutes ago that there are no talks happening between Dunn and the Nats at all. Which, given (a) Dunn's enthusiasm; and (b) the fact that it's usually the team, and not the player, who has no problem negotiating once the season begins, one would assume the Nats are giving Dunn the high hat. Maybe they don't like the fact that he ends his sentences with prepositions.
Seriously, though, I'd have a hard time getting my brain around a Dunn extension if I was a National League general manager. I love his bat, obviously, but you have to figure the Nats want to make sure he can play at first base all year before unloading the money truck. I mean, he's played a lot there, sure, but this is supposedly the first year he has really committed to it.
So, yeah, big year for Dunn.

Dunn might as well tell Mike Rizzo, "Look into their heart!" A trade is much more likely than an extension.
- Ari Collins - Apr 5, 2010 at 12:00 PM
Not only would the Nats not benefit as much as an AL team from a three-year Dunn deal, but they also wouldn't benefit as much as a team that had any hope of winning during those three years. Just a terrible, terrible, terrible, terrible idea.
- Anon - Apr 5, 2010 at 12:11 PM
That should be "Look into your heart!" I blew the joke.
- Carroll - Apr 5, 2010 at 12:41 PM
You cut out a crucial part of "all the right things." It should be noted, historical stuff is one of the intangibles of baseball in DC, there's no stat for it. (Also, Mark Teixeira hates history = unAmerican activity.)
"I like the historical stuff. You are not going to find anything like that in the world. It's awesome. It's a cool city. I wish I had more time to spend here to visit all that stuff. It's nice." -Big Donkey
- JBerardi - Apr 5, 2010 at 1:45 PM
That ain't friendly, Nats. Adam Dunn makes you a nice offer, you give him the high hat.
Seriously though, can we just make this guy a DH already? What's it going to take? I have no idea why the Nats haven't cashed him in for prospects yet.

If this blog induces just one more person to watch Miller's Crossing for the first time, it will have served its karmic purpose.
Meanwhile, those of us in the know can have fun counting Craig's references to it. Kinda like counting the Ninas in the Hirschfield caricatures, remember?

"Lucía, Lucía" is a charming romantic fable that could have been even more so were it not so long-winded. Fox Searchlight should have applied a Miramax-style edit to bring out the full impact of the film's clever premise and beguiling cast. As it stands, it would seem writer-director Antonio Serrano was perhaps too faithful to the source, Rosa Montero's novel "La Hija del Caníbal."
Cecilia Roth's Lucía is an attractive redhead, maybe in her late 30s. She is a modestly successful writer of children's books and shares a comfortable but somewhat shabby apartment in a dingy side-street building in Mexico City with her husband of 12 years, a petty government bureaucrat. She has a story to tell and admits that as a writer she has a tendency to blur the line between fact and fiction.
What she has to tell, whether in flashback or fantasy, is pretty incredible. Lucía and her husband, Ramón (José Elías Moreno), are at the airport, soon to depart for Rio de Janeiro to celebrate New Year's Eve when Ramón goes to the men's room — and disappears. Ramón was apparently not what he seemed, and soon Lucía finds herself up to her neck in excitement and danger.
In her initial shock at her husband's inexplicable disappearance, Lucía finds comfort in two neighbors, Félix (Carlos Álvarez-Novoa), a gallant, white-bearded Don Quixote-like veteran of the Spanish Civil War, and Adrián (Kuno Becker), an angelic-looking young musician. The three bond like the Musketeers, and Lucía realizes just how bored she'd become with her husband. The trio is soon caught up in high adventure, and inevitably Lucía and Adrián are drawn into a romance.
For all we know, Lucía is coping with her husband walking out by spinning this elaborate tale to assuage her pride and to work her way toward acceptance of her new solitary state; she may know Félix and Adrián only by sight. Either way, "Lucía, Lucía" is an exhilarating celebration of the possibilities of love and friendship, and Lucía, Félix and Adrián could not be more likable.
While Roth (best known for Pedro Almodóvar's "All About My Mother"), Álvarez-Novoa and Becker are charismatic, they are asked to do unnecessary heavy lifting as the plot becomes protracted. Its convoluted workings become a commentary on the corruption in Mexico's government and the lack of opportunities for an oppressed middle class. These are points worth making, but more briefly.
With such appealing actors and a satisfyingly ambiguous conclusion — check out that snapshot on Lucía's wall — it's possible to overlook the windier aspect of "Lucía, Lucía." Serrano has a way with actors but has more to learn about sustaining pace and energy.

Officials said Southern Illinois University's draft plagiarism policy, which appears to be lifted from another school's policy, has not been finalized. The Chronicle of Higher Education said Wednesday that the policy, which was drafted by Southern Illinois in 2007 following several high profile cases of stealing work, is nearly identical to portions of an Indiana University policy adopted in 2005, USA Today reported Friday. Southern Illinois officials said the policy will be reviewed and changes will be made where necessary. We think this is a non-story, said David West, director of government and media relations for the school.

A male teenager who allegedly dressed up as a woman to take an exam for a female friend in Schenectady, N.Y., may face lesser charges, an official says. Schenectady County District Attorney Robert Carney said the felony burglary charges currently issued against 17-year-old Deandre Ellis will likely be downgraded to misdemeanor criminal impersonation charges, the Albany (N.Y.) Times-Union said Friday. Schenectady Schools Superintendent Eric Ely said Ellis allegedly attempted to pass himself off as a female student during a junior English Regents exam Tuesday. Ely alleged Ellis was discovered wearing a wig and was removed from the testing site after it was learned he was not the female student scheduled to take the exam. The proctor knew the girl's name, looked at the face, and knew it wasn't her, Ely said. Police, who arrested Ellis after being called to the school, had charged the teen with a felony due to a strict interpretation of a burglary statute, the (Schenectady, N.Y.) Daily Gaz
University of Indiana researchers said a study involving speed dating suggests both sexes have difficulties reading the intentions of women. Skyler Place, a doctoral student in the university's Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences and lead author of the study, said men and women viewing video clips of speed dating were equally accurate in reading whether men were interested in the women they were speaking to and had equal difficulty reading the women. The hardest-to-read women were being misperceived at a much higher rate than the hardest-to-read men.

Today, in an authoritative 18-page ruling, Delaware Vice Chancellor Parsons ordered a follow-on derivative action stayed in light of a federal securities class action arising out of the same underlying facts. This ruling, Brenner v. Albrecht, should help defendants seeking to avoid the expense, distraction, and potential prejudice of defending related derivative and class action claims simultaneously.
As surely as federal securities class actions follow stock drops, stockholder derivative actions have come to follow securities class actions. Follow-on derivative actions seek recovery on behalf of the corporation against corporate officers and directors for harm suffered by the corporation arising out of (1) the events leading to the stock drop, and (2) the ensuing class action litigation, including the costs of defense. Unlike securities class actions, which must be brought in federal court, and where discovery is stayed pending resolution of motions to dismiss, these derivative actions are often brought in state courts, where the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act does not apply. Derivative plaintiffs routinely name all corporate directors as defendants and attribute corporate actions to board malfeasance or inaction. Often multiple derivative actions are brought in different jurisdictions. While derivative plaintiffs purport to represent the corporation, their litigation can prejudice the company in its defense of the class action and substantially increase the cost and distraction of the litigation.

Retiring wing director emphasizes importance of all contributions

66th Air Base Wing Public Affairs
6/1/2010 -
HANSCOM AIR FORCE BASE, Mass.
-- Providing an environment where people feel like they are a truly integral part of the team, ensuring all voices are heard, and being a mentor and coach are some of the impacts the retiring 554th Electronic Systems acting wing director, Col. Derrick M. Richardson, said he hoped he had achieved.
"Each individual's contribution - no matter how small - is significant and necessary for us to effectively field and sustain the combat mission support information technology capability we provide," he said.
Throughout his 27-year career, Colonel Richardson worked in a variety of acquisition positions, including aircraft, weapons, propulsion and space launch systems, but before he arrived at the Electronic Systems Center in 2007, he had had never worked in information technology.
Freely admitting he had "no clue" about what the organization did when he was first contacted to be the vice director, Colonel Richardson said it wasn't until Senior Executive Service member Frank Weber, the 554 ELSW director at the time, mentioned the Air Force Portal (part of the Global Combat Support System-Air Force) that he made the connection that the organization was about combat and mission support IT systems.
"The systems our wing provides are the 'behind-the-scenes' systems," the colonel said. "But they're the very ones you notice when they're not available -- things like whether members and force structure bills get paid or contracts are awarded, whether our personnel have the appropriate credentials and correct assignments or whether our PCs are configured properly."
With the 554 ELSW consisting of nearly 1,800 people geographically separated across five different states, Colonel Richardson said there's a premium on effectively communicating to ensure everyone is on the same page.
"We have a tremendous group of professionals, whether they're working financial management, contracting, or business systems in Dayton; personnel systems in San Antonio; enterprise services support, software application security, or integration and test at Gunter; or here in the Boston area working system/installation security, shared computing services or new personnel/pay system development," he said. "And it's been a phenomenal experience helping make all the pieces come together in support of our world-wide customers."
Colonel Richardson's jobs at the 554th were also his first acquisition positions that involved owning programs throughout their lifecycle, from cradle-to-grave.
"Being in an acquisition organization that's sometimes known as 'The IT Depot' really broadens your perspective," he said. "From the day you are tasked with developing the system you have to think through all the lifecycle elements because you know you will also be responsible for maintaining the system and any iterative upgrades."
Wing successes during the colonel's tenure include: obtaining full operational capability designation for the wing's IT infrastructure workhorse, Global Combat Support System-Air Force, with more than 900,000 users; instant messaging for friends and family (key to supporting deployed members and their families); web-based workforce career development plans; enterprise network-centric products and solutions available via Network Centric Solutions (NETCENTS and NETCENTS-2) contract vehicles; new force protection security systems installed in Iraq and Afghanistan; positive inventory control capability to provide serial number tracking for our nuclear enterprise; and fielding U.S. Transportation Command's financial enterprise resource planning system (Defense Enterprise Accounting and Management System).
Known for having a number of sayings, Colonel Richardson said one that he would like folks to remember is, "If you do what you did, you'll get what you got."
"Just because it's what you've done in the past, doesn't mean it best fits to meet today's mission needs," he said, reiterating the point. "We must never stop working to find new, more creative ways to get things done."
"I truly believe acquisition jobs test how creative we can be as our very resourceful people drive our defense enterprise to great success. I just hope I've helped create, in some small way, a landscape where our people feel empowered to use their innovative skills to find smarter, more beneficial ways to deliver mission capability to our customers and warfighters around the globe."
His retirement ceremony will be held June 4 at 1 p.m. at Hanscom's Minuteman Club. A retirement dinner will be held June 3 at the Colonial Inn in Concord, Mass.
For a post-military career, Colonel Richardson said he hasn't decided anything yet. He would like to continue to explore and keep all his options open, although he and his family are relocating to Niceville, Fla.

Feds: Teachers embroiled in test-taking fraud
MEMPHIS, Tenn. It was a brazen and surprisingly long-lived scheme, authorities said, to help aspiring public school teachers cheat on the tests they must pass to prove they are qualified to lead their classrooms.
For 15 years, teachers in three Southern states paid Clarence Mumford Sr. - himself a longtime educator - to send someone else to take the tests in their place, authorities said. Each time, Mumford received a fee of between $1,500 and $3,000 to send one of his test ringers with fake identification to the Praxis exam. In return, his customers got a passing grade and began their careers as cheaters, according to federal prosecutors in Memphis.
Authorities say the scheme affected hundreds - if not thousands - of public school students who ended up being taught by unqualified instructors.
Mumford faces more than 60 fraud and conspiracy charges that claim he created fake driver's licenses with the information of a teacher or an aspiring teacher and attached the photograph of a test-taker. Prospective teachers are accused of giving Mumford their Social Security numbers for him to make the fake identities.
The hired-test takers went to testing centers, showed the proctor the fake license, and passed the certification exam, prosecutors say. Then, the aspiring teacher used the test score to secure a job with a public school district, the indictment alleges. Fourteen people have been charged with mail and Social Security fraud, and four people have pleaded guilty to charges associated with the scheme.
Mumford "obtained tens of thousands of dollars" during the alleged conspiracy, which prosecutors say lasted from 1995 to 2010 in Arkansas, Mississippi and Tennessee.
Among those charged is former University of Tennessee and NFL wide receiver Cedrick Wilson, who is accused of employing a test-taker for a Praxis physical education exam. He was charged in late October with four counts of Social Security and mail fraud. He has pleaded not guilty and is out of jail on a $10,000 bond. He has been suspended by the Memphis City Schools system.
If convicted, Mumford could face between two and 20 years in prison on each count. The teachers face between two and 20 years in prison on each count if convicted.
Lawyers for Mumford and Wilson did not return calls for comment.
Prosecutors and standardized test experts say students were hurt the most by the scheme because they were being taught by unqualified teachers. It also sheds some light on the nature of cheating and the lengths people go to in order to get ahead.
"As technology keeps advancing, there are more and more ways to cheat on tests of this kind," said Neal Kingston, director of the Center for Educational Testing and Evaluation at the University of Kansas. "There's a never-ending war between those who try to maintain standards and those who are looking out for their own interests."
Cheating on standardized tests is not new, and it can be as simple as looking at the other person's test sheet. The Internet and cell phones have made it easier for students to cheat in a variety of ways. In the past few years, investigations into cheating on standardized tests for K-12 students have surfaced in Atlanta, New York and El Paso, Texas.

Halo PC music extractor and concatenator 0.2 by Luigi Auriemma e-mail: aluigi(at)autistici.org web: aluigi.org Usage: halomus <sounds.map> <output_directory> All the Halo songs are divided in some pieces to allow dynamic music. This tool concatenates all these pieces in sequential order but naturally some RARE songs could sound a bit strange or "loopy" (exists this word?) due to the dynamic content. Any flaw in the songs (like some pops) is caused by the original files, this is only an extractor and concatenator, nothing more. Usage example: halomus c:\halo\maps\sounds.map c:\halo-music

Boeing has launched a new interior and upgraded CFM International CFM56 engine for the 737NG family of narrowbody aircraft.The manufacturer plans to introduce the CFM56-7B Evolution powerplant in conjunction with a new interior to deliver a 1% improvement in overall aircraft efficiency. Boeing will also make minor tweaks to the aerodynamics of the aircraft to contribute to a 1% improvement as well.Launch customers include FlyDubai, Continental Airlines, Malaysia Airlines, TUI Group, Norwegian, Gol and Lion Air.CFM will deliver the improvement by reshaping the blades and vanes of the high- and low-pressure turbines to increase airflow through the engine and reducing overall temperature, says director of CFM56 Boeing programs Robyn Brands.Boeing and CFM will introduce changes to the engine nozzle and plug, and remove approximately 9% of engine airfoils from the high- and low-pressure turbines, to reduce maintenance costs by up to 4%. Aerodynamic changes to the aircraft include a reshaped anti-collision light, refined wing control surfaces, revised main landing-gear wheel-well fairing and a modulation of the environmental control system inlet and exhaust.Boeing and CFM are aiming these changes at carriers operating 737s in stages greater than 1,000nm (1,850km)."The longer you're in cruise, the more fuel burn improvement you're going to get," says 737 chief project engineer John Hamilton.
Video: FlightBlogger interview with John Hamilton
CFM says it will be able to offer the engine improvements to existing CFM56-7B operators through spares and overhauls in the future. The engine maker says it will continue to support the -7B technology insertion package introduced in 2007, as well as the base -7B configuration engine.The technology changes represent a $100 million investment for CFM. Overall, Boeing hopes to deliver around 2% improved fuel consumption for 737NG customers.
Video: Interior lighting demonstrated
CFM's first Evolution engine will be ready September 2009 and the company says it is already testing Boeing's engine nozzle improvements at its Peebles, Ohio facility.Tests will include 150 hours of block testing beginning in January 2010 that will see the engine run at maximum core speed, maximum fan speed and maximum operating temperature simultaneously – also known as triple redline – for 30-hour intervals. Following each continuous 30-hour triple redline run, the engine will be spooled down, not shut down, then operated again under the same conditions for a total of five 30-hour triple redline runs.Brand adds that if an engine were to achieve triple redline in service for even 20 seconds, the US FAA would require the operator to remove and overhaul the engine, emphasizing the brutal testing to which the new Evolution engine will be subjected.CFM will flight test the Evolution on General Electric's venerable Boeing 747-100 in February of 2010, ahead of a joint US FAA and European Aviation Safety Agency certification in July 2010. Once certified, the Evolution engine will be branded as the CFM56-7BE.Boeing will utilise a Continental 737-800 to flight test the changes in October 2010 ahead of certification in the second quarter of 2011, followed by entry into service in mid-2011 – when the aerodynamic enhancements are also scheduled for introduction. The interior will enter service in the fourth quarter of 2010.FlyDubai will be the launch customer for the 737 'Sky Interior' which features new colour-LED lighting, larger 777/787-style pivot bins, new sculpted sidewalls, revised window design, a flight attendant touch-screen panel, and changes to the individual passenger reading-light panel.Boeing also hopes to deliver a 2-4dB reduction in cabin noise. The interior improvements mark the most significant change to the type's cabin since its introduction with Southwest Airlines in 1998.The weight-neutral interior will be a priced option for existing 737 customers and be a mandatory priced 'option' for new customers. Boeing declines to discuss the adjustment in price of the new features.
While technically possible to retrofit current 737NGs, Boeing says this is "not feasible" because the cost would be prohibitively high.

Chat Delhi-based Ramamoorthy Sriganesh on his impending move to Chennai.
W ith Madras officially called Chennai, the alliteration, along with the fun, has gone out of saying "Madras, the Mecca of Carnatic music," but that doesn't mean Carnatic musicians have stopped making a beeline for it. New Delhi-based artistes may be envied by their counterparts elsewhere for their proximity to powerful cultural organisations, but they also long to get back to the centres that nurtured their art.
One more artiste to pack his bags and make the shift to Chennai is Ramamoorthy Sriganesh, mridangist and nattuvanar. "I was almost born in Delhi," says Ganesh, whose ancestral home is in Lalgudi, Tamil Nadu, and who has been in the Capital since he was three. Trained in the mridangam under Chidambaram V. Nataraja Iyer and A. Premkumar, he says, "People ask me, after 40 years, how can you go back? But I feel I am longing for more creativity."
Ganesh's journey has all the hallmarks of success, but even success can get dull. With few Carnatic musicians available in Delhi, he soon became a sought after percussionist among Bharatanatyam and Kuchipudi dancers of the Capital. Added to the exclusivity of his art was a diligent and resourceful approach that made him an active participant in the creative process. Adding nattuvangam to his accomplishments, he was busier than ever.
Simultaneously he continued with his personal development and launched Dhwani, a tala vadya (percussion) group, featuring mridangam, tabla, kanjira and other Indian drums accompanied by melody. Dhwani has performed across India and other countries, and it is work of this sort that Ganesh hopes to continue once he settles in Chennai.
At the UN's "Make Noise for the Millennium Development Goals" concert some months ago, Ganesh conducted a large group of percussionists as part of a performance that brought together drummers from across India. While the duration of his segment was only 10 minutes, the experience was worth it, he says. "We worked for five months for the programme. That has given me encouragement to do more such things. It is always good to work with big groups, with good musicians around. You get so many ideas."
He concedes, "It took me a long time to realise I can do more." Adding that working with dance, learning dance-specific percussion and dance syllables too has been an education, he explains, "In dance you have to remember, you have to memorise or you write it down. And the cross-rhythms, especially in Bharatanatyam, are also very helpful. These things can be done without dance too."
Recently, he accompanied eminent dancer Swapnasundari on the mridangam when she premiered her reconstruction of the Simhanandanam tala of 128 beats in a Vilasini Natyam performance in Chennai, besides composing the jatis for her new varnam.
There are still lots of opportunities for a mridangist in Delhi, but Ganesh says it is now "a bit monotonous". He remarks, "Sometimes I feel it's because the supply is less and demand is more. Even if you want to call people and do something (new), musicians don't have time." Significantly, he adds, "There is a fear factor too, that mediocrity will set in. you don't get time to spend on yourself. You need to take time to upgrade yourself."
People argue that Chennai poses lots of competition, then why ask for trouble? "You should have your own identity," says Ganesh. "I want to work with artistes who challenge me. I am not the kind of person who can be happy with whatever I have."

Improv Life Lessons, "Yes and" and Beyond
Tuesday, May 20, 2014
Improvisational comedy relies on team work, thinking creatively on your feet, and being open to new ideas. Charlie Todd, founder of the prank collective Improv Everywhere and a performer at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre, talks about the lessons you can learn from improv that apply in real life.
Guests:Charlie Todd
Comments [4]
I teach improv to kids here in Manhattan and I have to say their growth after just one session. The idea of always making your parnter look good is such an amazing thing to learn when you are middle school. I've had parents come in and say, "My child has completely changed since working in improv". All children should at least try improv once!
Yes-and....."He [George Bernard Shaw] hasn't an enemy in the world,
and none of his friends like him." Oscar Wilde
My first exposure to improv was the best - the first Elaine May-Mike Nichols
"record." I still remember that minutes into what sounds like a blind date,
Nichols said: "Do you have enough room on the bed?" Don't remember what she answered, do remember she didn't miss a beat!
Brian, you're asking, why was someone the neighborhood clown among friends who became lawyers, bankers, etc. Why not among those who became plumbers, waitresses, domestic workers?

Seeing More Than A Fence: Road Trip Along The Southern Border
Originally published on Wed June 20, 2012 2:33 pm
On a recent Sunday afternoon, Victoria Sambunaris is standing on a cliff overlooking the Rio Grande in Roma, Texas.
From her vantage point, she says, she can view children swimming in the river while their families sit at picnic tables and barbecue across the bank. Some of the children race on their Jet Skis, trying to keep up with U.S. border agents patrolling the river on pontoons.
This portion of the Rio Grande divides Roma from Ciudad Miguel Aleman in Mexico. It's one of many border towns that straddle the U.S.-Mexico border, which spans nearly 2,000 miles — separating four U.S. and six Mexican states.
This is also one of many stops Sambunaris, a photographer, has made along the border this year. Over the course of eight months, the New York-based Sambunaris has journeyed west from Del Rio, Texas, to San Diego, documenting the landscape with a large-format, 5-by-7 field camera. She calls it her "Border Series."
"I might say that I relate to this place for many reasons, being first-generation Greek with immigrant parents who came to this country in search of the American dream," Sambunaris writes in an email interview with NPR.
Her collection documents the physical landscape, which is an inherent part of the debate over immigration policy, as well as the violence erupting in border towns ignited by Mexican drug cartels.
"When I leave New York my friends are terrified for me," says Sambunaris. "They don't see the ... truth of the border — what the border really is — which is this incredible, rich place. It's beautiful."
A sense of place is evident either from Sambunaris' photos taken from high, or even on flat terrain. At first glance, some may not appear to be taken at the border; look closer, though, and many do have some trace of the border fence running directly across the center of the image.
"I'm trying to convey that it is one: one landscape and one place, although they're two different countries," says Sambunaris on the phone from Santa Fe, N.M., where she's taking a break from her latest road trip.
She says it's not long before she will be drawn back to the border's edge.
"You have all these border towns, and they're all unique in their own way, and there's a beautiful culture there," says Sambunaris. "Life still exists regardless of what's going on."
During her drives, border patrol agents have offered their own advice, acting as tour guides and telling her the best vantage points. Sambunaris says they've even offered her lifts and guided tours. Driving through remote areas, it's hard not to be noticed.
"Driving a dark gray Suburban with tinted windows and New York plates along the border fence definitely requires I tell Border Patrol I am there and why."
The focus of her next series examines the border's commerce and the many cars, trucks and trains that travel across it. Despite warnings of violence, her goal is to cross over to the Mexican side of the border, which she has begun to do, and take photos from there, too.

Neo4j driver (REST API client) for Node.js
npm install neo4j --save
var neo4j = require'neo4j';var db = 'http://localhost:7474'; dbcypher query: 'MATCH (u:User {email: {email}}) RETURN u' params: email: 'firstname.lastname@example.com' if err throw err; var result = results0; if !result console.log'No user found.'; else var user = result'u'; console.logJSONstringifyuser null 4; ;
Yields e.g.:
Node.js is asynchronous, which means this library is too: most functions take callbacks and return immediately, with the callbacks being invoked when the corresponding HTTP requests and responses finish.
Because async flow in Node.js can be quite tricky to handle, we strongly recommend using a flow control tool or library to help. Our personal favorite is Streamline.js, but other popular choices are async, Step, Seq, TameJS and IcedCoffeeScript.
Once you've gotten the basics down, skim through the full
API documentation to see what this library can do, and take a
look at @aseemk's node-neo4j-template app for a complete usage
example. (The
models/User.js file in particular is the one that interacts
with this library.)
This library is officially stable at "v1", but "v2" will almost certainly have
breaking changes to support only Neo4j 2.0 and generally improve the API
(roadmap). You can be sheltered from these changes if you simply specify
your package.json dependency as e.g.
1.x or
^1.0 instead of
git clone email@example.com:thingdom/node-neo4j.git
cd node-neo4j
npm install && npm run clean
You'll need a local installation of Neo4j (links),
and it should be running on the default port of 7474 (
neo4j start).
To run the tests:
npm test
This library is written in CoffeeScript, using Streamline.js syntax.
The tests automatically compile the code on-the-fly, but you can also generate
.js files from the source
._coffee files manually:
npm run build
This is in fact what's run each time this library is published to npm.
But please don't check the generated
.js files in; to remove:
npm run clean
When compiled
.js files exist, changes to the source
._coffee files will
not be picked up automatically; you'll need to rebuild.
If you
npm link this module into another app (like node-neo4j-template)
and you want the code compiled on-the-fly during development, you can create
index.js file under
lib/ with the following:
require'coffee-script/register';require'streamline/register';moduleexports = require'./index._coffee';
But don't check this in! That would cause all clients to compile the code on-the-fly every time, which isn't desirable in production.
See the Changelog for the full history of changes and releases.
This library is licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0.
If you encounter any bugs or other issues, please file them in the issue tracker.
We also now have a Google Group! Post questions and participate in general discussions there.

Dosimetrist Schools and Colleges in the U.S.
Medical dosimetry programs are often housed in a university's radiology department. Both bachelor's and master's degrees are available in this subject, as well as certificate programs. Read on for more information about dosimetrist schools and colleges in the U.S.
How to Select a Dosimetrist School
Medical dosimetrists are members of the radiation oncology team. They are educated in the procedures of radiation dosing and familiar with the equipment and techniques used (www.mdcb.org). Programs for aspiring dosimetrists are typically available at 4-year colleges and universities.
Summary of Important Considerations
- Accreditation
- Certification preparation
- Faculty credentials
For prospective students interested in undergraduate and graduate degree and certificate programs in medical dosimetry, the first step is finding an accredited program. Medical dosimetry is not yet a degree that is widely offered and there are few programs available. The Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology (JRCERT) lists the accredited schools and is the only organization recognized by the U.S. Department of Education for accrediting medical dosimetry schools (www.jrcert.org).
An accredited dosimetrist school will also be in good standing with either of the two major professional organizations for dosimetrists:
- American Association of Medical Dosimetrists (AAMD)
- Medical Dosimetrist Certification Board (MDCB)
Certification Preparation
Undergraduate programs should prepare students to take the MDCB certification exam. Even with a degree or certificate, becoming licensed by this board is highly recommended for work in this field. For those seeking scholarships, the AAMD offers several awards ranging from $1,000-$5,000 (www.medicaldosimetry.org).
Faculty Credentials
The background of the program faculty is also important. Dosimetrists work with medical staff from different departments and must understand the procedures of each one. While the exact credentials vary by school, the faculty should consist of some of the following:
- Certified Medical Dosimetrists
- Radiation oncologists
- Medical physicists
- Radiobiologists
- Physicians
- Nurses
Dosimetrist Program Overviews
Medical Dosimetry Certificate Programs
Most dosimetry certificate programs are offered as graduate or post-bachelor's certificates and last for 12 months. While a certificate is acceptable for employment in this field, it is best for students who already have a degree in radiation oncology or a related field or are currently certified radiation therapists. These programs require a bachelor's degree or the completion of a certain amount of college credits for admittance. Certification in radiation therapy may also be required for admittance. Students participate in clinical practicums and take courses such as:
- Radiation physics
- Radiation biology
- Clinical dosimetry
Medical Dosimetry Bachelor's Degree Programs
Medical dosimetry degree programs are rare at the baccalaureate level. When they are offered, they may be available as a track within a Bachelor of Science in Radiologic Sciences program or as a Bachelor of Science in Medical Dosimetry. Bachelor's degree completion programs are also available for students that have already earned some applicable college credit.
Bachelor's degree programs for medical dosimetry are typically small. Most have a total student capacity of fewer than ten, although there are some programs with capacities over 30. Often, these are 1-year, full-time programs, following the completion of all prerequisite courses. In addition to clinical education, topics of study can include:
- Medical dosimetry physics
- Cross-sectional anatomy
- Radiation treatment planning
Medical Dosimetry Master's Degree Programs
Master's programs take two years of full-time study to complete. Besides a bachelor's degree, certification as a radiation therapist is a required prerequisite of most programs. In addition to coursework, clinical internships and research projects are a significant part of the curriculum.
