WASHINGTON Gilead Sciences Inc said on Monday that U.S. health rejected two of its HIV drugs as standalone therapies, citing deficiencies in documentation and validation of certain quality testing procedures.
Gilead said it is working with U.S. Food and Drug Administration to address the questions raised in the rejection letter in order to prove the application forward.
The company is seeking approval for its drug elvitegravir for people with HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, who have already been treated with other products. The drug blocks the enzyme integrase which is needed for the HIV virus to replicate.
Gilead is also seeking approval of cobicistat, a drug that does not itself fight the virus but boosts the function of other HIV medicines.
Both drugs are already contained in Gilead's once-daily single-tablet HIV treatment Stribild, which combines four different medications and was approved in the United States last August.
Analysts on average expect elvitegravir, if eventually approved, to generate annual sales of about $300 million by 2016 according to Thomson Reuters data. They expect sales of cobicistat of roughly $242 million over the same period.
Overall, Gilead's portfolio of antiviral drugs generated sales in 2012 of $8.14 billion.
HIV treatment typically involves the use of multiple drugs designed to attack the virus from different angles. Gilead licensed elvitegravir from Japan Tobacco Inc in 2005 and has the right to market it anywhere except Japan.
Elvitegravir works in a similar manner to Merck & Co's drug Isentress, also known as raltegravir. Isentress is typically given twice a day. Elvitegravir only needs to be taken once a day, but it's action needs to be boosted by cobicistat or an alternative drug that delays the metabolism of elvitegravir.
Gilead has given a number of Indian generic drugmakers, including Ranbaxy Laboratories Ltd rights to make generic versions of elvitegravir and other HIV drugs to be sold in developing countries.

There are several myths about the Central Bureau of Investigation, ranging from the celebrated epithet "caged bird" to the abusive nomenclature "Congress Bureau of Investigation," Finance Minister P. Chidambaram said here on Tuesday.
"None of the descriptions is correct or even well-meaning. Some myths are carefully fostered and propagated in order to serve an immediate or narrow self-interest," he said at the three-day conference organised by the CBI.
"In a lighter vein, I may say that sometimes the CBI itself pretends to be a helpless victim when it pleads for more powers and greater autonomy. Hardly anyone seems to notice the contradiction when the same person pleads in favour of more powers to the CBI and also rails against the alleged excesses of the CBI. And hardly anyone pauses to ask how the CBI could do the bidding of a party that has not been in government during 12 of the last 35 years."

Elizabeth Taylor's Broadway Debut
By Donna Bailey-Thompson
Elizabeth Taylor is creating a gamut of sensations on Broadway in a revival of Lillian Hellman's "The Little Foxes."
At 49, the astoundingly beautiful superstar of the movies has made her stage debut and sent box offices into tailspins. On the road to New York, her magic was unleashed at Burt Reynold's dinner theatre in Florida (sold out). Prior to the May 7 premiere at the Martin Beck Theatre, "The Little Foxes" was the hottest ticket in town. It still is. The next day, "due to the unprecedented demand," the run was extended into early September.
The mixed reviews do not deter the drawing power of Taylor. Frank Rich of The New York Times wrote a glowing review ("Entertainment – that's what 'The Little Foxes' most abundantly is.")
Clive Barnes of the New York Post traced the play's history and faulted Taylor's performance with a velvet glove: "A great woman, a promisingly aspiring actress, a poor play – it can't fail to succeed, or succeed enough to fail. Something has been made of nothing – but the something is presence, and the nothing is brightly colored tinsel."
Douglas Watt of the Daily News was sharply critical: "...her portrayal of the ambitious, scheming, self-centered Regina is as tentative as a schoolgirl's first drag."
One network wag resurrected, "I was underwhelmed."
The wire services permitted their words to reflect the emotional high that zinged from the stage and caromed around the theatre on opening night.
The drama began hours before curtain. The morning news carried reports that Taylor had bronchitis compounded by a 102 degree temperature. Given her medical history–pneumonia, tracheotomy, and an almost Jobian catalog of woes –concern about her ability to perform that evening was well founded. But a call to the theatre at 5 p.m. offered assurances that all systems were go.
The premiere was a glittering event of ultra-glamorous magnitude. Curtain was scheduled for 6:15, and the two large kleig lights at curbside had yet to be turned on. Shafts of sunlight danced off the heads of eager fans who strained at ropes cordoning off an apron of sidewalk in front of the theatre. Police and security guards kept order. Photographers scrambled for better positions.
The scene was reminiscent of films about show biz and of televised arrivals prior to award ceremonies. The inherent electricity of the Big Apple was charged with mega watts. With each new arrival, fans hushed and photographers got ready to snap.
At least one arrival confused them. The limousine door was opened and out stepped my dear friend, an attractive lady who is a travel executive from Oklahoma City, followed by me, a reclusive writer from Southwick. The expectant fans murmured, probably things like, "Who's that?" and the cameras clicked, even a few bulbs flashed. We loved it! If the prints did not end up in a basket, perhaps they served for dart practice.
Not all limousines disgorged hicks from the hinterlands. Among the notables were the star's handsome husband, Senator John Warner of Virginia; her mother, Sara Southern Taylor; three of her four children, Michael Wilding, Liza Todd and Maria Burton; Rock Hudson, a friend; Joan Fontaine who has close ties in Suffield, CT; and also Claire Trevor, Shirley MacLaine, Hermoine Gingold, Lee Radziwill and Arlene Francis.
Inside the theatre, supposedly blase sophisticates were wide-eyed in the presence of such a clutch of celebrities. A strikingly attractive woman, elegant in a one-shoulder gown of burgundy velvet, knelt on a chair next to the balcony of the second floor lobby. Whenever she spotted a well-known face among the throng of dinner jackets and long dresses, she squealed–in a ladylike manner, of course. Her ankles stuck out beyond the hem of her dress, and her gold sandals hung in space beyond the edge of the chair. She reminded me of a little girl playing dress-up in her mother's finery.
Our seats were in the mezzanine, row B, one of three rows reserved by co-producer, Donald C. Carter (the other is Jon Cutler) and the producer Zev Bufman, who was instrumental in persuading Miss Taylor not only to do a play but to bring it into New York. They were splendid seats with unobstructed sightlines of the full stage.
The house crackled with anticipation. Suspense was prolonged a half hour beyond the designated curtain time. The hum of social chatter within the theatre was accentuated by bursts of applause from out on the street whenever another celebrity arrived.
Finally the dignitaries were seated in the first few rows of the orchestra, the house lights dimmed, and the curtain went up to reveal "the living room of the Giddens home, in a small town in the South...The Spring of 1900"–a mellow glow of burnished wood, dominated by a wide staircase at stage right that rose to a second floor hallway; at stage rear, sliding doors led into a dining room. There was perfunctory applause. (In set design, Stage West does not have to take a back seat to Broadway.)
The opening moments are carried by two black house servants, a hackneyed contrivance. But I was there not as a critic but to enjoy!
When petite Maureen Stapleton made her entrance, there was warm, enthusiastic applause which momentarily stopped the action. However, when Taylor as the notorious Regina sailed forth through the sliding doors, a roar of applause erupted, and the play ground to a halt for several minutes.
Yes, she is breathtakingly beautiful. Yes, she worked hard to shed 20 pounds. Yes, she is slender and as svelt as anyone who is 5'4" can expect to be and endowed with a bosom to rival Dolly Parton's. Yes, her famous violet eyes, even from a distance of 30 feet, are incredibly arresting.
No longer is she the gamin of "National Velvet." (1944–oh, how long she has been a star!), nor is she the girl-queen, Cleopatra, nor the blowsy Martha of "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" (Remember the hoopla in 1965 when it was being filmed nearby?) She glows now with the stunning beauty of maturity, a gutsy, assertive woman, a survivor of much who has emerged from all her crises a stronger person.
As Regina in "The Little Foxes," she schemes with her equally avaricious brothers and nephew to become filthy rich from a cotton mill. She is coquettish with a visiting tycoon from Chicago; raspish with her brothers; condescending to her pathetic sister-in-law (performed impeccably by Miss Stapleton); overbearing with her daughter; and a contributor to her husband's death (she refuses to give the stricken man his medicine).
Her diction is precise, and her voice carries better than the company's experienced stage actors. She has made the transition from screen to stage with underplayed simplicity. Much of the time she employs cinema techniques, slight gestures that convey volumes. She can get away with this because her stage presence is riviting. But when broad gestures are required, she delivers. Consequently, her commands and outbursts of venom are particularly powerful. Towards the end of the second act, she has a long cross while she barks and spits instructions to her husband. The audience applauded and laughed. Taylor is adept at pulling humor out of anger (remember "Virginia Woolf"?).
"The Little Foxes" is a melodrama and so does not require subtle characterizations. All traits, be they good or evil, are right up front. The problem with this production is the super stardom of its lead: Taylor transcends the material. However, as the playwright's craftsmanship of the vehicle strengthens, so doesTaylor's interpretation of Regina.
By the final curtain, with her husband lying dead in an upstairs room, her daughter defying her, one of her brothers implying he may one day figure out why her husband died and will press charges, a shaken but resolute Regina mounts the stairs. She is going to go up in the world for as long as she can, come hell or high water. It is a singular triumph that it is Regina Giddens on those stairs, not Elizabeth Taylor.
The theatre exploded with thunderous applause. Tidal waves of standing ovations continued for almost 10 minutes. Armfuls of roses were presented to the actresses; bouquets, nosegays and single flowers were hurled upon the stage. At the crest of the emotional release, Lillian Hellman was escorted to stage center, and cries of "Bravo! Bravo!" rang out again.
No one cheered more lustily than I. With that one word, I tried to express my admiration for the spirited author, as independent an individual as the star of her play. I cheered for "Pentimento" (remember "Julia"?) And "An Unfinished Woman," "The Children's Hour," "Watch on the Rhine," and a string of credits that reflect her growth.
The lid that was blown off in the theatre stayed off during the cast and company party conducted at Xenon, a trendy discotheque. Again, there were the exuberant crowds held back by restraining ropes, the ever-ready photographers, and the police and security guards.
Senator Warner whirled his radiant wife around the dance floor. Andy Warhol mingled. The servants from the play, Novella Nelson and Joe Seneca (who portrayed their stereotyped roles with great dignity) were among the last of the company to endure the unrelenting beat of the disco records that pulsated with enough strength to make the room vibrate. Two giant, multi-faceted mirror balls hung from the ceiling reflecting prisms of light everywhere through garish streamers suspended from wires. Strobe lights, black lights, psychedelic lights, kept the excitement at fever pitch.
Around 1 a.m., Liza Minnelli cut the cake, a massive mound covered with a confection of angel wings. She was chosen for the honor, it was announced, because "our star has left, and Elizabeth Taylor is Liza's surrogate mother." Minnelli shimmered in sequins. Not movies, television nor still photographers can capture her quick silver beauty.
As invited guests departed, clusters of patient fans were admitted. At once, the glamour was shattered by jeans, knee socks, even a young man who looked as if he had fled a burning building in his boxer shorts. The scene became bizarre, perhaps even too much for Fellini.
We Cinderellas from Oklahoma and Massachusetts decided the time had arrived for us to return to our hotel before the limousine turned into a pumpkin.
The memories live on. There was the matron at the theatre in charge of the ladies room who insisted I was in television. "You have your own show! I've seen you!" She searched for a name to put with my face. I hated to disappoint her, but facts are facts. I told her, "I'm a writer, not a performer."
Once at Xenon's I turned and found myself eyeball to eyeball with a distinguished looking man. I stared at him. Was his face from TV? The movies? Both? He stared back. Finally he smiled and said, "Hi." I said, "Hi." I have no idea who he was.
Co-producer Carter's mother was a bubble of concentrated adrenalin. "Rock Hudson just came in!" she burbled. She introduced friends and family,. "I'm nobody," she confided to us. "I'm just a housewife from the suburbs."
Well, what's wrong with that? Between projects, so is Elizabeth Taylor Warner.
Additional thoughts: When I mailed a copy of the article to Oklahoma, a cover letter included these remarks. "Anyone who knew I was going [to the play] asked about what kind of a time I had; and because I broadcast my good news, this means I've been able to repeat and repeat and repeat, always to a new audience. .... As you can see, the local paper had a big hole to fill. I telephoned the editor to ask if they'd like a piece on the opening. I guess so! I fully expected it to be edited, but except for some minor alterations, it went as is. (They deleted mention of Washington, DC theater; fact Rock Hudson has been a friend since "Giant" days; and referred to La Star as Taylor whereas I referred to her as Miss Taylor.) My aunt told me that Elizabeth Taylor collapsed in her dressing room Friday evening and was hospitalized-- broken rib from so much coughing, and I don't know what else, probably continuation of the bronchitis. Although I was very sorry to hear of her illness and discomfort and for all the theatre-goers who were disappointed, I was glad I included the bronchitis in my piece. Not many did."
Austin Pendleton directed a production that ran at the Parker Playhouse in Fort Lauderdale for three weeks and the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. for six weeks before opening on Broadway, after eight previews, on May 7, 1981 at the Martin Beck Theatre. It ran for 123 performances. The cast included Elizabeth Taylor as Regina, Tom Aldredge as Horace, Dennis Christopher as Leo, Maureen Stapleton as Birdie, and Anthony Zerbe as Benjamin. Costume design was by Florence Klotz. In a pre-Broadway opening article in Time, Gerald Clarke reported nearly $1 million worth of tickets had been sold during the week following the first New York Times ad announcing Taylor's appearance [3]. She was nominated for both the Tony Award for Best Performance by a Leading Actress in a Play and the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Actress in a Play. Tony nominations also went to Pendleton for Best Direction of a Play, Aldredge for Best Featured Actor in a Play, Stapleton for Best Featured Actress in a Play, and the play itself for Best Reproduction. – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Little_Foxes

I purchased a C&C 25 this year myself and the boat was outfitted with an old somewhat tired main from Newport Sails and a rather nice Dacron mainsail from Thurston sails in Bristol, RI. Since my boat was raced in Narraganset Bay for a number of years the sail inventory was pretty diverse. If I was going to get the maximum performance out of the boat, I would put up the newer main as well as the 150 Mylar genoa and then let ''er rip out in Buzzards Bay. For basic cruising and daysailing with family, I would just leave the old Newport main up and then let is stay on the boom under the sail cover overnight without giving a second thought about ruining it. You may want to give Bill Shore at Shore sails down in Newport RI a call as he is familiar with the C&C 25 and can make good recommendations based on the type of sailing or racing you are going to do in your area.

Press release from Business Wire
University of Phoenix Announces Completion of Program Review

 Receives Final Program Review Determination Letter in Which U.S. Department of Education Closes Review

Monday, June 21, 2010
University of Phoenix Announces Completion of Program Review08:00 EDT Monday, June 21, 2010 PHOENIX (Business Wire) -- Apollo Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:APOL) today announced that subsidiary University of Phoenix has received the Final Program Review Determination Letter associated with its February 2009 program review by the U.S. Department of Education (Department) and that the University has successfully completed the corrective actions and satisfied the obligations arising from the review. "We are pleased to have successfully resolved the findings reported by the Department through a collaborative and productive process," said Joseph L. D'Amico, president and chief operating officer of Apollo Group, Inc. "In so doing, we have adopted a series of processes and procedures to further strengthen our already rigorous internal controls and administrative capability." As required, Apollo has posted a Letter of Credit in the amount of approximately $125 million to comply with the Department's standards of financial responsibility. The Department's regulations require institutions to post a Letter of Credit where a program review report cites untimely return of unearned Title IV funds for more than 10 percent of the sampled students in a period covered by the review. Of the six findings contained in the Final Program Review Determination Letter, three related to University of Phoenix's procedures for determining student withdrawal dates and associated timing of the return of unearned Title IV funds, which averaged no more than six days outside the required timeframe in the affected sample files. Importantly, there were no findings that indicated incorrect amounts of Title IV funds had been returned. In the second quarter of fiscal year 2010, Apollo made payments totaling $660,000 to reimburse the Department for the cost of Title IV funds associated with these findings. The remaining findings involved isolated clerical errors verifying student-supplied information and, as self-reported by University of Phoenix in 2008, the calculation of student financial need where students were eligible for tuition and fee waivers and discounts, and the use of Title IV funds for non-program purposes such as transcripts, applications and late fees. About Apollo Group, Inc. Apollo Group, Inc. is one of the world's largest private education providers and has been in the education business for more than 35 years. The Company offers innovative and distinctive educational programs and services both online and on-campus at the high school, undergraduate, master and doctoral levels through its subsidiaries: University of Phoenix, Apollo Global, Institute for Professional Development, College for Financial Planning and Meritus University.

We tried everything from renting a car to guilt on our friends. We thought that people might be trying to car pool so we looked and found Ricky Rides. Although at that last minute we didn't find a ride on Ricky Rides we were able to keep the hope alive long enough with this site to find another way down.

Sorry, but I'm not going to let some third party have access to my FB/Twitter info.

I happened to check the forums for possible rides and I found a link for Ricky Rides. I contacted a couple going on the second weekend who were looking for help splitting gas and camping costs. It turned out AMAZING! They were awesome people, we all had similar music taste, and we all hung out the entire time I was there. They were even able to accommodate my girlfriend when she decided to join us last minute. I can't image what I would have done without Ricky Rides! Thank you for creating this website!!! :)"- Coachella 2012 (II) Carpooler

Skeleton keys
Chimpanzee bones may be evolutionary gold mine, relatively speaking
Online: See a digitized, rotating view of a chimpanzee skull at uniontrib.com/more/ carta-skulls
Online: Read earlier articles in our series on Darwin's legacy at http://www.uniontrib.com/more/darwin
Sixth in an occasional series of features marking the 200th anniversary of Charles Darwin's birth (Feb. 12, 1809) and the 150th anniversary of his landmark book about evolution and natural selection, "On the Origin of Species."
If scientists ever fully trace the evolutionary path of people, some of the answers may come from a group of 30 or so chimpanzees who lived and died in Arizona, then came to San Diego.
The Center for Academic Research and Training in Anthropogeny (CARTA) at the University of California San Diego has begun digitizing dozens of skeletons of apes who once resided at the Primate Foundation of Arizona (PFA), a nonprofit organization in Mesa, Ariz., that took in, cared for and studied unwanted chimpanzees for more than 30 years.
The skeleton collection is the first tangible component of CARTA, a novel and largely virtual institute established last year to encourage a deeper, multidisciplinary study of human origins. Though CARTA has offices at UCSD and the nearby Salk Institute, most of its diverse worldwide membership, which ranges from anthropologists to medical doctors, biochemists and neuroscientists, is connected via the Internet and a common curiosity about how man began.
"The question of human origin is not something that can or will be solved by any single field of science. Finding answers requires cooperation," said Dr. Ajit Varki, a physician and professor of cellular and molecular medicine at UCSD who co-directs CARTA.
"There's only one place in Germany – the Max-Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology – that sort of tries to do this, but that's not enough. We need to expand and deepen the effort."
The chimpanzee skeletons, which were donated to UCSD because the PFA is closing down, are a major first step by CARTA in that direction and something of a scientific windfall. Collections of chimpanzee skeletons are rare. Even rarer, however, are skeletons with well-documented histories. These chimpanzee skeletons from PFA come with extensive medical records attached, from radiographs and old blood samples to years of observation logs chronicling their owners' lives.
"It's a huge amount of material, which we can sort through for all kinds of information," said Varki. "For example, we can look at a chimp's routine blood tests over the years. We can see how its blood values changed with age and if there was any corresponding impact on the bones."
More profoundly, the ape data could help illuminate human origins and development, said Margaret Schoeninger, a biological anthropologist at UCSD and CARTA co-director. "One of the things that jumps out at me is the possibility of doing some really detailed biomechanical studies of the skeletons, looking at the shapes of chimpanzee bones related to locomotion and seeing how they differ at a fine level from humans."
(Schoeninger said CARTA is also attempting to acquire an extensive collection of macaque skeletons, which would give them a monkey database to compare with chimps and humans.)

Is Bitcoin Sports Trade a Legal Loophole for Online Sports Betting in the US?
US Laws Have Made Online Sports Betting for US Citizens Illegal but Bitcoin Might Have Just Changed That.
LOS ANGELES, May 8, 2014 /PRNewswire-iReach/ — TV host John Stossel had an intriguing segment on his show called 'Want to Bet' recently.
Photo – http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20140507/85482
The Stossel Show, which airs on fox news, brought on Bitcoin Center NYC Policy Associate Naomi Brockwell to talk about how Bitcoin has revolutionized online betting — and made an activity that is illegal in most of the United States accessible to American bettors.
How Bitcoin Opens the Door for US Sports Bettors
Brockwell states, "The way that the ban on internet gaming is enforced is that the government actually targets the intermediary, the financial institutions, that process the payments to the online gaming sites. What's amazing about bitcoin is it is a peer to peer currency so it doesn't actually use any of these financial institutions therefore the bettor can communicate and make payments directly to the casino.
And there's very little that the government can do to stop these transactions. I guess they could try to shut down sites using diplomatic pressure but there such an incredible market for online gaming, 50-60% of all bitcoin transactions are made within gaming sites so there's a huge market.
Furthermore", she added that "Bitcoin is an incredible technology that is facilitating these sites and is actually making gaming a lot safer for the people doing the betting."
Bitcoin Payments are Instantaneous
They are instantaneous but you can go one step further, they're actually irreversible. One of the main concerns that people have with online gaming is charge back fraud and bitcoin completely eliminates the risk of this happening said Brockwell.
"Really, you see, Bitcoin is not just a tool for freedom of speech but for allowing people to spend their money where they want to so the governments can no longer dictate where they can and can't put their money", she adds.
Is Bitcoin the Future of Online Sports Betting?
Online gaming sites are a staple in the world of Bitcoin. As Brockwell stated, up to 60% of all bitcoin transaction come from online casinos. The implications are tremendous and with sports betting particularly popular in the United States, bitcoin sports betting sites like BitcoinSportsTrade are taking advantage.
BitcoinSportsTrade.com CEO, Tyler Wilson states, "The emergence of bitcoin has allowed us the opportunity to create an online sports-betting platform that makes it 100% more convenient for US sports bettors in a variety of ways.
Unlike traditional online casinos, which have a tedious process of depositing and withdrawing your cash, with BitcoinSportsTrade making deposits and withdrawals are virtually instantaneous, with zero fees, anonymous, and best of all not illegal."
Wilson also states that, "Bitcoin represents freedom of expression. It inspired us to create a head to head sports betting platform where people can make and take bets between each other exclusively using bitcoins."
The advantages of bitcoin for the US online gaming community are apparent. Will it become the future of online sports betting? Only time will tell.

BORING, Ore. -- Hundreds of friends, family and community members gathered at a public funeral for Emilio Hoffman Sunday afternoon at the Good Shepherd Community Church.
The 14-year-old freshman from Reynolds High School in Troutdale was fatally shot by a classmate on June 10.
Police say Jared Padgett, the 15-year-old shooter, died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound after being confronted by officers.
More: Student killed, teacher injured in Reynolds High School shooting
Jennifer Hoffman, Emilio's mother, spoke at the memorial about the sense of purpose her son provided for her.
"Emilio, the day you were born was the true beginning of me, of who I was supposed to be. I needed to be your mom," she said.
A soccer ball sat on top of Hoffman's casket at the service, and kids wearing soccer jerseys lined the seats.
Friends said Hoffman, an avid soccer fan and player, was "warm-hearted, honest, smart and funny."
More: Close friend describes Reynolds shooting victim
His soccer coach said he had a great sense of humor, but also took care of business.
"We loved Emilio for being him: funny, a jokester, captain, leader," said Ronaldo Soriano.
The church's pastor asked attendees to celebrate the joy in Hoffman's life instead of his tragic death.
"This day, we're going to celebrate his life," said Pastor Steve Keels. "We're going to do it by remembering him, and we're going to do it by celebrating him. Even though, in this room, we know what took place was wrong and evil and bad."
In the wake of Emilio's death, Jennifer Hoffman urged parents not to take their children for granted.
"Love your kids. Hug your kids every day. And live with no regrets," she said. "I don't have any regrets with Emilio. None. And he knew that."
More: Hoffman's mother: 'hug your kids every day'
Hoffman wore No. 29 for his high school soccer team. His mother was presented at the memorial with an official Timbers jersey bearing his number.
His older brother wore the jersey when he walked across the stage during his graduation ceremony earlier this month.

Visitors to Archives honor Reagan with diaries
Sunday - 6/19/2011, 3:04pm EDT
WASHINGTON - The National Archives and the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library is offering children a chance to imagine a day in the White House and create their own presidential diaries.
The "Your Day as President" family event runs Friday through Monday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day. As part of a celebration of what would have been Reagan's 100th birthday, one of his personal diaries will be on display through July 5.
So, what are people actually at the event saying they'd do if they were President for a day?
"I'd do my best to try to make it so that people aren't as hostile to each other," said Thomas, a high school senior from the Southern California.
"I'd definitely reform the education system," said his teacher. "It needs to be about the kids and it's not right now.
Jacob, 11, from North Carolina, disagreed, saying "I would sign a bill saying kids don't need to go to school so long,"
Others were less pragmatic.
"I'd have my chef prepare some really nice meals for me," said Michelle Judd, from Michigan.
"I'd take Air Force One, and just travel around the world for a day," said Timothy Hart, from Oregon. "That'd be worth it alone."
The personalized diary entries that families create at the Archives will be shared with former first lady Nancy Reagan.

The search for the missing helicopter is focussed around roughly 300 sq. km. of Nallamala forest in Kurnool and Prakasam districts, a daunting task indeed for the police teams that have fanned out into the thick forest area, once a Maoist stronghold.
Large contingents of Grey Hounds, the elite anti-naxalite commando force, have been rushed to Kurnool and Prakasam districts for the search and rescue operations. The commandos are the most competent for the job as they are well-versed with the forest terrain, but inclement weather is hampering the progress of the units.
The forest is spread over nearly 6,000 sq.km. and traverses through Mahabubnagar, Kurnool, and Prakasam districts, which incidentally were on the flight path of the Bell-430 helicopter that carried Mr. Rajasekhara Reddy.
The search teams have narrowed down the area on the expectation that after being airborne for one hour, the chopper would have crossed or have been in the vicinity of Atmakur town in Kurnool district.
What has surprised officials is the complete radio silence from the Bell-430. Every helicopter, sources in the aviation industry say, is equipped with High Frequency (HF) and Very High Frequency (VHF) sets.
Puzzling fact
While HF is used for long range communication, the VHF is used for communication within 150 km. In the event of a crash, however, these sets might not function if the external antennae are destroyed under the impact of a crash.
The other puzzling fact in the episode is that every helicopter is expected to have an Emergency Locating Transmitter (ELT) fitted to the aircraft body, while the pilot is expected to carry a Personal Recovery Beacon (PRB).
The ELT would start giving distress signals in the event of a crash and the PRB, once activated, would start beaming the Global Positioning System (GPS) 'latlong' (latitude and longitude) details.
This would have helped authorities pinpoint the location of the chopper, if it had crashed or force-landed in an interior place.
However, none of these details are available, making it more difficult for the search and rescue teams, officials say.

Although shaped in a traditional ball design, this topiary is anything but ordinary. Over 18-inches high, it makes a nice addition to an indoor or outdoor patio or sunroom.

But, he said, to leave with complete pessimism is to throw up one's hands.
"I agree with the critique, but might depart with the ambassador on where we should be going," he said.
Chodosh said it is important to ask, "How can we learn from prior mistakes or weaknesses in our effectiveness?"
However, he added, resistance to training Afghans at sub-national levels of government is a mistake.
"You want to target people who have prior experience," he said, not just law graduates who are "very smart but aren't familiar with those processes and the problem sets they have to deal with that has so many challenges, including illiteracy."
"The folks working have to be clever enough to work with a legal process that is not necessarily based on written text," he said.
Galbraith admitted there was some progress in Afghanistan, particularly on providing health services and on women's rights. But as far whether he thought Karzai would tackle official corruption, he clearly pulled no punches.
"It is as Johnson said of second marriages: the triumph of hope over experience," Galbraith said. "But in this case, it goes beyond that."

Guy Saget Marie de Beauregard AOC Chinon Cabernet Franc 2009
Cabernet Franc from Loire, France
Winemaker's Notes
Marie de Beauregard Chinon is a deep ruby, shiny wine with garnet-red reflections. A nose of black fruits (blackberry, blueberry, blackcurrant) which is delicately shaded by leather and vanilla. A powerful and racy mouth highlights the terroir and ends with good length.
Critical Acclaim
Wine Spectator - "Offers modern-style toast, with dark cocoa and graphite notes up front, but a core of sweet plum, cassis and bitter cherry notes, with smoldering tobacco and tapenade hints on the back end, keep this nicely grounded."
Guy Saget Winery
Guy Saget, the leading premium Loire Valley winery, is 9th Generation Family owned and managed. They are continuously exploring the best expression of Sauvignon Blanc both Sancerre and Pouilly Fume. Quality and respect of nature have always been the philosophy of Vignobles Guy Saget. Brought up in the vineyards, the Saget brothers; Jean-Louis and Christian, learned from a very young age to love and respect the soil. Vignobles Guy Saget sources two-thirds of the production in the Loire Valley from their estates with the remainder from long-term relationships with families of vine growers. View all Guy Saget Wines
About LoireChenin Blanc, Muscadet and Sauvignon Blanc. For reds, Cabernet Franc takes center stage but the region also has plantings of Pinot Noir and Gamay. The AC of Cremant de Loire is popular – these are the sparkling wines of the Loire, usually made with Chenin Blanc.
Notable FactsAs for which grapes you find in which regions… Starting on the Atlantic Coast and moving east - Muscadet hails from the region of the same name, within the larger Nantes district, right on the Atlantic coast. The wines are dry, citrusy and pleasant, but rarely powerful or intensely aromatic. Just inland from Nantes is Anjou-Samur, home to Savennières, an excellent source of dry Chenin Blanc. To the east is Touraine, where you'll find the popular white region of Vouvray - Chenin Blanc shines in Vouvray, which can be dry, off-dry or sweet – the majority of those found in the states are a lovely and food-friendly off-dry. In the same district, Cabernet Franc makes delicious, delicate and elegant reds from Bourguil and Chinon. Finally, in the Upper Loire area, Sancerre and Pouilly Fumé turn out Sauvignon Blancs of razor sharp acidity and minerality.
About France - Other regionsWhen it comes to wine, France is a classic. Classic blends, grapes and styles began in the country and they still remain. Think about it - people ask for a Burgundian style Pinot Noir, they refer to wines as Bordeaux or Rhone blends - Champagne even had to pass a law to stop international wineries from putting their region on the label of all sparkling wine.
The top regions of France are: Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne, Languedoc-Roussillon, Loire, Rhone. And these regions are so diverse! It makes sense that wine regions throughout the world try to emulate their style. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah are no longer French varieties, but international varieties. They may not be the leader of cutting edge technology or value-priced wines, but there is no doubt that they are still producing wines of great quality and diversity.

Alcohol By Volume GuideMost wine ranges from 10-16% alcohol by volume. Some varietals tend to have higher (for example Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon) or lower alcohol levels (Pinot Noir and many white varietals), but there is always some variation from producer to producer. Some wine falls outside of this range, for instance Port weighs in closer to 20%, while Muscat and Riesling are usually a bit below 10%.
Wine Style Guide
Light & Crisp
- Light to medium bodied wines that are high in acid and light to medium fruit. Typically no oak.
Fruity & Smooth
- Light to medium bodied wines with lots of juicy fruit, typically medium acid and medium oak.
Rich & Creamy
- Full bodied wines that have typically undergone malo-lactic fermentation and/or spent time in oak.
