Sangamo BioSciences Presents Positive Phase 2 ZFP Therapeutic Data at ADA 2009
Analysis of Subjects with Moderately Severe Diabetic Neuropathy Shows Statistically Significant Improvement in Multiple Quantitative Neurological Endpoints
RICHMOND, Calif.,
"We have learned a great deal from these data, which demonstrate positive activity of SB-509 in multiple clinically relevant measurements of nerve health," stated
"SB-509 is the first drug candidate of its type designed to harness the body's own regenerative potential to address DN, a significant complication for diabetic patients," stated
Details of Poster Presentation of Data from Sangamo's SB-509-601 Study (Abst# 859-P): "Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Zinc Finger Protein Activator (SB-509) in Mild to Moderate Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy Patients. Interim Phase 2 Results (SB-509-0601 Study)" presented on
Overall, no difference was seen at 180 days between placebo and SB-509-treated subjects in Sangamo's double-blind, repeat dosing Phase 2 clinical study of SB-509 (SB-509-601) in the following measures of nerve health and function: Abbreviated Neuropathy Impairment Score in the Lower Limbs (A-NIS-LL), Nerve Conduction Velocity (NCV), and Quantitative Sensory Testing (QST). However, analysis of the data demonstrated that subjects entering the SB-509-601 trial had significantly milder DN by neurologic exam (A-NIS-LL) and NCV than subjects in either the Phase 1 SB-509-401 or Phase 2 SB-509-701 studies (p value = 0.0001). Further analysis of the data revealed that subjects with moderate to severe DN had a statistically significant and clinically relevant positive response to treatment with SB-509 over the six-month test period. In addition, new top-line data were presented from epidermal (skin) nerve fiber density (ENFD) and nerve fiber regrowth (ENFDR) studies carried out in collaboration with
ENFD has been shown to be a direct measure of nerve health and growth in DN. Subjects entering the SB-509-601 trial with a median ENFD of less than 18 fibers/mm, a value that separates moderate from mild DN, demonstrated parallel improvement between median sensory (sural) NCV (delta 1.0 M/s) and ENFDR at day 210 (delta =2.0 fibers/mm) with a multi-endpoint p value of 0.05.
Baseline measurements considered to define the threshold of mild and moderate DN of sural NCV (< 47.5 M/s), QST (>7.5 vibration units) and A-NIS-LL (>10) were also used to define SB-509 responder groups within the total population of SB-509 treated subjects. The data from these sub-groups were analyzed and all groups demonstrated clinically relevant improvement in the neurological exam by A-NIS-LL.
Specifically, the following clinically relevant improvements in A-NIS-LL in SB-509-treated subjects compared to placebo at Day 180 were seen for subjects entering the study with the following baseline measurements:
- Sural NCV of <47.5 M/s, we observed an improvement of 1.1 points compared to 0.2 point worsening for the placebo group (a delta in A-NIS-LL of 1.3 points, p value= 0.08);
- QST of >7.5 v.u., there was a 2.3 point improvement compared to a 1.5 point worsening in the placebo group (a delta in A-NIS-LL of 3.8 points, p value=0.005);
- A-NIS-LL of >10 points, we observed improvement in A-NIS-LL of 2.5 points in SB-509 treated subjects compared to a 0.3 point worsening when compared to SB-509 treated subjects entering the study with a baseline A-NIS-LL of <10 (a delta in A-NIS-LL of 2.8 points, p value=0.003).
In addition, in subjects entering the trial with A-NIS-LL>10 points, we observed sural nerve NCV preservation of 0.02 M/s in SB-509 treated subjects compared to a 2.4 M/s worsening in the placebo-treated group (p value = 0.09).
Details of Oral Presentation of Data from Sangamo's SB-509-701-A Study (Abst# 243-OR, presented 06/07/09): "Reappearance of Nerve Potentials in Severe Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy Patients with Unmeasurable Nerve Conduction Using Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Zinc Finger Protein Activator (SB-509): Interim Phase 2 Results (SB-509-0701 Study)" presented on
Data from the first cohort of Sangamo's single-blind, repeat dosing Phase 2 study of SB-509 (SB-509-701-A) demonstrated that subjects with at least one nerve for which an NCV could not be measured showed a clinically relevant improvement at Day 180 in two NCV-based analyses of SB-509 versus placebo-treated subjects.
Proportional analysis of the percentage of responding subjects with a measurable nerve at 180 days that could not be measured at baseline or who demonstrated a greater than 7 M/s improvement for a baseline measurable nerve revealed a two-fold improvement with SB-509 treatment (47%) compared to placebo (27%) (p value = 0.20).
The mean change in sural NCV at Day 180 compared to baseline demonstrated a clinically relevant improvement in subjects treated with SB-509 compared to placebo-treated subjects (2.8 m/s SB-509, 1.3 m/s placebo, p value=0.20). In addition, relative improvements in sural NCV were maintained at 240 days (3.81 M/s SB-509, 1.98 m/s placebo, p value = 0.24).
"SB-509 has shown unprecedented restoration of NCV in subjects that began the study with nerves for which no induced electrical activity could be measured, a clinical condition that would normally be considered irreversible and untreatable," commented Dr. Ando. "There is both a vascular as well as a neurologic component to severe peripheral neuropathy which appears to be addressed by the activation of VEGF-A by SB-509. It is also very encouraging that effects have been observed across multiple endpoints such as NIS-LL and NCV in the 601 study and NCV in the 701 study which are measurements that have been used as endpoints in previous pivotal large scale trials of other non-analgesic approaches for diabetic neuropathy."
About SB-509
SB-509 is an injectable plasmid encoding a DNA-binding Zinc Finger DNA-binding Protein (ZFP) Transcription Factor (ZFP TF(TM)) designed to upregulate the endogenous expression of the gene encoding vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF-A). VEGF-A has been demonstrated to have direct angiogenic, neurotrophic and neuroprotective properties. In preclinical animal efficacy studies in a diabetic rat model (Diabetes,
About Diabetic Neuropathy
Diabetic neuropathy is a progressive degenerative disease that is one of the most frequent complications of diabetes, affecting between 14 and 16.5 million Americans in 2007. High blood glucose levels lead to nerve damage over time, primarily affecting peripheral nerves. Symptoms include numbness, tingling sensations and pain particularly in the toes or feet, which gradually evolve to loss of sensation and motor function as nerve damage progresses. Ulcers and sores may appear on numb areas of the foot as pressure wounds or injuries go unnoticed. Despite palliative treatment, these areas of trauma frequently become infected and this infection may spread to the bone, necessitating amputation of the leg or foot. More than 60 percent of non-traumatic lower-limb amputations in

Forensic Toxicology Colleges and Schools in the U.S.
Forensic toxicologists test bodily fluids and tissues to identify chemicals and analyze their relevance to a crime. The field includes aspects of biology, chemistry and physics. Graduate degree programs in toxicology prepare individuals to work in government and private industry.
How to Select a Forensic Toxicology School
Students can prepare for a graduate program in toxicology by obtaining a Bachelor of Science in chemistry, biology or physics. Each of these degree programs contains a slightly different curriculum, but all are commonly accepted by graduate degree toxicology programs. Bachelor's programs in toxicology, while not as prevalent, are also adequate preparation, and associate's programs in toxicology or one of the sciences can prepare individuals to continue their studies at the bachelor's level. There are several factors to consider when choosing a graduate program.
List of Considerations
- Type and length of program
- Reputation
- Facilities
- Funding for students
Type and Length of Program
Some schools offer a combined 5-year bachelor's and master's degree curriculum in toxicology. This type of program can reduce the amount of time it takes to earn a master's degree by almost half.
Prospective toxicology master's or Ph.D. students should investigate the school's reputation, grant awards, faculty recognition and scientific agency affiliations. Grant awards and faculty recognition indicate that a toxicology program is well regarded in the field. Attending a prestigious institution could make it easier for graduates to find employment after graduation.
Individuals choosing a toxicology graduate degree program should also consider the state of the school's labs, the networking opportunities it provides students and any possible financial awards. A program consisting of extensive amounts of lab time using state-of-the-art equipment may better prepare students for working in the field.
Funding for Students
Some schools offer master's and Ph.D. students full scholarships that include a living stipend. This financial aid can reduce the amount of debt students assume for their studies and make it possible to attend the program full-time.
Forensic Toxicology Program Overview
Associate of Science in Biology, Chemistry or Physics
These programs consist of 60-70-course credit hours. In addition to general education coursework, students take a core curriculum based on the program's focus. Credits earned in the majority of these degree programs are transferable to 4-year colleges or universities. Depending upon the specific degree type, students might take courses in:
- Organic chemistry
- Inorganic chemistry
- Statistics
- Ecology
- Cell biology
Bachelor of Science in Biology, Chemistry or Physics
These programs typically require four years of study and consist of approximately 120 course credit hours. Specific coursework depends on the field of study, but all three types of programs contain some of the same courses. Some schools permit students to concentrate their studies on forensics. Course examples include:
- Genetics
- Neurobiology
- Anatomy
- Relativity
- General chemistry
Master of Science in Forensic Toxicology
Forensic toxicology master's degree programs typically consist of two years of study. In these programs students learn drug design theories, neurochemical pharmacy, molecular biology and criminal law. Students complete either a thesis or a research project. Most programs consist of extensive amounts of lab time or internships in local labs. Toxicology-specific classes include:
- Biochemistry
- Drug metabolism
- Occupational toxicology
Doctor of Philosophy in Toxicology
Some Ph.D. programs are offered as pharmacology rather than toxicology degrees. Ph.D. toxicology programs are research-intensive. The first two years is typically dedicated to coursework. During the final years students write a dissertation on a toxicology topic of their choice. Most programs permit students up to five years to complete the dissertation. Students take courses in:
- General pathology
- Biostatistics
- Cardiovascular biology

Since trading in their courtrooms for dining rooms in 1985, former federal prosecutors Larry Flax and Rick Rosenfield have created one of the most popular, casual, full-service restaurant chains in the country. Friends and law partners for more than 30 years, they set out to expand culinary horizons, with hearth-baked pizzas topped with everyone's favorites.
While traditionalists enjoy CPK's Sweet and Spicy Italian Sausage Pizza and thin-crust Sicilian pizza, the menu is more exciting than ever. The Pear and Gorgonzola Pizza is back by popular demand, joined by some new creations: Baja Fish Tacos, with sautéed, wild-caught mahi mahi, fresh shredded cabbage, and homemade ranchito sauce; Sonora Egg Rolls, grilled lime chicken, roasted corn and black bean salsa, two cheeses, chiles, and green onions, wrapped in a crispy wonton roll; Asparagus and Spinach Spaghettini; and Pesto Cream Penne Pasta.
In their third cookbook, California Pizza Kitchen Family Cookbook, co-founders and co-CEOs Flax and Rosenfield show families how to prepare pizzas, kids' favorites, and other CPK specialties from the comfort of their own kitchens. These crowd-pleasing recipes bring the CPK experience home. One hundred percent of all cookbook royalties are distributed to children's charities across the country.
CPK has something for everyone, starting with great food at moderate prices, served by an expert staff. Vegetarians and health-conscious patrons can choose meatless, cheese-less pizzas and gluten-free crusts. Dishes are created with natural chicken, turkey, pepperoni, salami, Italian sausage, and Canadian bacon. And CPK sources the freshest premium vegetables and herbs.
The award-winning CPKids menu features child-size pizzas, pastas, and desserts.
Want your pizza without cheese? No problem. Without chicken? That's fine too. Just bring an appetite. CPK was voted "Best Pizza in the Desert" in a Palm Springs Life reader's choice poll and named No. 1 Most Recommended Casual Dining Chain Restaurant by Zocalo Group and MARC Research. The Palm Springs and Palm Desert restaurants open at 11 a.m. All menu items are available for dine in and takeout. Both locations offer online ordering at www.cpk.com and CPK's Curbside Service; have the restaurant deliver your order right to your car.

As the wait continues for the State Government to notify the amendments to the Karnataka Lokayutka Act, there is curiosity over the manner in which Lokayukta N. Santosh Hegde will exercise his suo motu powers — an authority to conduct an inquiry without any complaint and take action against government officials falling under his jurisdiction.
One such case that is waiting to catch the Lokayukta's eye is the preliminary inquiry reports related to the encroachment of Turahalli Minor forest, which is located in the midst of the Bangalore Development Authority's Banashankari 6th Stage. The BDA was accused of encroaching upon 35 acres of the forest land for the new layout. The Forest Department later got back their land and planted saplings on the encroached portion.
The then Upa Lokayuta G. Patri Basavana Goud took suo motu notice of media reports about the encroachment and ordered the former Principal Chief Conservator of Forests S. Parameshwarappa and the then Principal Secretary, Revenue, S.M. Jaamdar, to conduct a preliminary investigation in 2006.
The two submitted their reports to the Upa Lokayutka in February 2007. Mr. Parameshwarappa pointed out that fraudulent land documents were created and land was sold to a number of gullible buyers, including the BDA. The reports said that the BDA had gone ahead with acquisition of 42 acres of land and developed sites on the layout despite warnings to the contrary sent by the Forest Department to it.
Mr. Parameshwarappa found the then Kengeri Sub Registrar at fault for the creation of fake documents involving 75 acres of forest land.
These documents were created on the basis of a fake "Dhanapatra" signed by Sir Mirza Ismail, Dewan of Mysore. These fake documents were used to register 43 sale deeds between July 28, 2006 and August 17, 2006.
Mr. Parameshwarappa recommended criminal action against the then BDA Commissioner Jayakar Jerome, the then BDA Land Acquisition Officers Rameshappa and E. Chenagangappa and the then Under Secretary of the Urban Development Department, V.R. Ilkal.
But, no action was taken on the two reports as the officers against whom action was recommended were coming under the purview of the Lokayukta. No action was taken as the Lokayukta then did not have the power to take sou motu cognisance of the two reports.
In cold storage
Asked about the two reports, Mr. Hegde said, "I have to look at whether I can exercise suo motu power on the recommendations made at the time when I did not have such a power. The two reports are lying in cold storage," he said.

on demand on gateway enforcer
i have setup a gateway enforcer on our lan network. i need to let the enforcer redirect a user when his\her computer is not compliant or does not have symantec installed. please assist. i have set the redirect as the ip address of the internal interface of the gateway enforcer. if i visit the redirect address on my browser it installs the on demand client but it does not redirect automatically. also we use a proxy if it helps. thanks in advance guys
Comments 4 Comments • Jump to latest comment
"if i visit the redirect address on my browser it installs the on demand client but it does not redirect automatically"
If I am understanding this correctly, you are able to get the on-demand client to install if you type in the IP address of the internal interface into the browser's address bar, but you are not automatically taken there if you, say, enter in "google.com" in the browser's address bar.
Try entering in "http://localhost" into the redirect field in the SEPM under Admin > Servers > Enforcer group properties > Authentication
If that does not work, then it could be that your proxy is getting in the way. Try bypassing your proxy as a test.
If a post helps you, please mark it as the solution to your issue.
The issue with a On-Demand via proxy is that the client will respond to the UDP 39999 "challenge packet" sent from the Enforcer by sending the response to the proxy instead of the Enforcer. This is because the IP address that the packet appears to be coming from will be the proxy.
The only way to get this to work is to have the proxy forward all UDP 39999 packets from the client machines to the SEPM. I dont know of many proxies that have the capability to do this, though, so you may be out of luck.
Can you place the proxy or the Enforcer somewhere else, so that the clients do not have to go throught the Proxy when connecting to the Enforcer?
If a post helps you, please mark it as the solution to your issue.

UPDATE: Lopez released a statement on Friday (one of the best ever!) of the incident saying, "Tied one on last night. Not feeling great this morning. I was trying to sleep it off, unfortunately, it was on the casino floor."
Comedian George Lopez was arrested on Thursday night at a casino in Canada, RadarOnline.com is reporting.
The 52-year-old actor and talk show host was at the Caesars casino in Windsor, Ont. where he had a performance that night and was scheduled to have another show Friday night.
PHOTOS: Celebs Who Have Battled Drinking Problems
The Ontario Provincial Police were notified by hotel security of a problem with Lopez and arrested him on site just after 11 p.m. for public intoxication.
According to one eyewitness, Lopez was passed out drunk on the floor of the casino and had to seek medical treatment.
"George Lopez passed out on the casino floor last night. And he was sent to the hospital! No joke," Chad Maura wrote on Facebook, accompanied by a photo of what appears to be Lopez.
And there was one eyewitness who claimed Lopez was already intoxicated when he flew into Michigan, before crossing the border for his show.

River Market 3 June–July 2010 investing in our co-op By Mead Stone i n January, River Market bought a new (refurbished) produce wet case. This was the single largest investment in equipment we have made since I've been here and probably since we opened in the Maple Island location 10 years ago this coming June 21st. This was a pretty big event for us. Then, after what seemed like an excruciatingly long wait (a few weeks), we got the racks for the case. The produce stays fresher and the sprinklers seem to keep the product moister—especially most co-ops; indeed, we typically turn our a local business, supporting your on the top shelf—the light is brighter, inventory (in dollars) more than twice a community, and providing an alternative and the product "pops".

There will be Exobiology.
Before I get into the story, let me be clear: the current plan in the Astrobiology Program is to proceed with the ROSES 2011 due date of March 2, 2012 and then have the next due date be in June of 2013…. Now onto the story.
I got a panicked message today from a colleague, wondering why the Exobiology program was suspended. After a few minutes of confusion, I figured out the issue: ROSES 2012 was just released… and in it, Exobiology is listed as "Not solicited this year."
However, there will be an Exobiology solicitation in calendar year 2012… and

How to force to 720p ?
I have a HTPC under ubuntu and a plasma in 720p resolution. In between, I have an amplifier (sony str-dg820).
So, the resolution my PC take on boot is low, due to the dialog with the amplifier (I suppose).
How to force resolution to 720p on the PC ?
Here is my xorg.conf :
Section "Monitor"
Re: How to force to 720p ?
No, durring boot is used console driver driver and it's resolution. Usually it's 640x480 ( or 800x600 with really big font ).
You must check if your FrameBuffer module is blacklisted ( in Ubuntu it's usually vesafb, vga16fb, nvidiafb and many more - I'm using vesafb because it's compatibile with everything and don't block nvidia kernel module to load as nvidiafb do ) and if it is then remove it from blacklist ( add "#" at the biginning of it's line ), add it to initramfs autoloaded modules, update initramfs image and add kernel option with desired/available resolution to your bootloader configuration.
Re: How to force to 720p ?
Thanks for your reply.
So I added a # on the line blacklist vesafb , but for what I have to do next : sorry I have no idea ! ( linux noob :-| )
So I found elsewhere what it seemed to be done :
echo vesafb >> /etc/initramfs-tools/modules
defoptions=quiet splash vga=871
But at reboot, same problem... :-(
So maybe I missed something ?

I am a daily lap swimmer. I love the feel of the fabric, but the top of the suit is too big and too low. Since I have used it and can't return it, I will have to have some alterations made to the top so I feel secure in the water. This wasn't evident until it was wet.
Great Suite!
from Florida
on 8/2/2012
I've recently started water walking to lose weight and was having a hard time finding a swim suite to fit. Speedo Women's Plus Sized fit perfect and performs in water well. Stays put and looks good. Strap configuration "Ultraback" keeps suit in place, no strap slipping, don't worry about what the suit will do once in the water. It stays put. Back and straps come up high on back to cover the stuff I don't want seen, completely covers underarm and around the back up higher than most suits. Fits exactly as measurements. Front is a double layer with a very soft shelf bra that covers well and doesn't look stiff, natural look to it. Because it is double in front and has the shelf bra, it is hard to wring out dry. I'm having to put it in the washer spin cycle to get it dry. A minor complaint when the suit is so great.I wouldn't be swimming if not for this suit! Thanks Speedo!
Not a Bargain

This suit fits fine, but after swimming in it for about 2 months, the material on the backside completely disintegrates so that you can actually see through it as if it is opaque. Not happy about this. Bought another one to see if it was a one off, but the same thing happened. Very disappointed in Speedo. Why are they using a fabric that does not hold up well in a pool. This is an athletic swimsuit, not a sunbathing swimsuit.

Finally a suit that fits and stays put with all of the moving around during water aerobics. Lightweight, easy to rinse out & dries fast. I am ordering another one soon.
Good buy

Speedo Swim Suit

This is my second Speedo suit in the past 8-9 months. The first one lost all of it's color and stretched out 4 inches compared to my new one. I hope this suit doesn't do the same. I swim three times per week so the suit gets a lot of use. I love Speedo suits. They fit well, the color is great and the shoulder straps are very comfortable.
A good value.

I needed a basic suit for the gym. This does the job.
Swimsuit Too Large in Bust
from MO
on 3/22/2012
This suit was too large in the bust. For most women who are larger in the hips but a bit smaller in the bust, then this suit is NOT for you. I kept it because I was desperate for a swimsuit, but I returned the second one. Now I am trying to figure out a way to take up the straps so that I don't have to worry about my boobs falling out when I lap swim.
Review of new swim suit

Ordered -Shipped 02/07/12(Thurs.) received Monday- Very good. But it is only 02/26/12 and the color is very silverery. Faded!! Not black anymore, only in spots. I swim in an exercise program 5 days a week at the YMCA in Spirit Lake, Iowa. for about 1 hour. I do sit in the Hot tub my allowed 10 min. each morning before swimming. Because of my hip surgery these are suggested from my Dr. I like the cut. I had a Speedo previously, I wore it about 2 years with good color. However, the stitching threads had to be replaced. It was the one with the colored strips up the sides. I was hoping this one would do as well. Good fit and all except for color.
Quality swimsuit

Totally love this swimsuit. I must admit I was just looking for a basic black swimsuit...nothing special, so I wasn't expecting anything special, but the fit is great, shows off my waist, and the back gives a sexy vibe that I did not realize. Love it!!

I previously made all my swim suits, this is a truly great fit and the fabric is very sturdy. I swim every morning and it is standing up better than I could imagine.
Excellent swim suit
from Madison, AL
on 2/17/2010
This was an excellent product but the sizing was wrong for me...probably my fault as I tend to order up a size for bathing suits. I did return the suit on 1/21/10 and requested an exchange. That was over 3 weeks ago and I have not received the new suit.

Staff Reporter
ERODE: The Erode police are questioning a man, charged with murdering his 20-year-old wife.
The police said they were questioning S. Gowthaman, son of Shanmugam of Dharmaapuri, on suspicion of murdering his wife by poisoning.
The police said Gowthaman's wife Gayathri died in July 2008 under suspicious circumstances.
Soon after her death, Gowthaman showed undue haste in disposing of the body, which raised suspicion in her adopted father Sivalingam, who lodged a complaint.
Following investigations, the police said they exhumed the body and sent parts of it for chemical analysis.
Based on the test report that Gayathri was poisoned to death, they were questioning the husband, the police added.

Instead, I went to the premiere of Open Water, a pure popcorn movie whose plot mechanics only express rage at Mother Nature and/or utter incompetents (though Bush isn't mentioned by name). The low-budget winner has a fairly banal married couple going scuba diving in the Bahamas, only to be left behind by their tour boat and find themselves facing the elements, the sharks, and scariest of all, a digital camera. The dialogue might not exactly be trenchantly witty ("God, it fucking hurts!" is even less elegant than "Shove it!"), but it's the characters' very ordinariness that makes the story all the more believable, and the result is quite harrowingthe perfect date movie for the Fear Factor generation.
After the screening, I asked BLANCHARD RYAN, who's a standout as the wife who wanted to go skiing, what was scarier for herthe shark stuff or the gratuitous nude scene. "When I first did it, I thought, 'No one's gonna see the stupid little movie,' " she said, laughing. "I was terrified only of the sharks. Now that I did it and it's out there, the sharks are behind me and the horrifying scene is when I'm naked. My poor father has to see it!" Just then, Dad came out of the theater, shaken by the movie, and he and Blanchard hugged each other, gushing, "I love you!" There's nothing like a toothy, oversize fish and a little boobie shot to bond family members for life.
What was the worst part of being in the water all that time? "Just being wet," said Blanchard, sensibly. "You'd get out for a break, then you'd have to put the clammy bodysuit back on and go back in and get chilled to the bone. We're not made to be in the water!" PleaseI'm such an adorably light-loafered sprite, I'm not even made for land!
But ultimately, Open Water is a relationship movie, not a sushi-in-reverse chiller. "It's not really about the sharks," said Blanchard, "though they're definitely scene stealers. And some showed up that weren't part of the movie. We called them 'non-union sharks.' They scared the hell out of me." Honey, scabs are always terrifying.
But back to the Bush-bashing, smirk smirk: Some folks have wondered why I wrote that The Village fits into that increasingly wide category. Well, this might all be in my twisted mind, butdon't read ahead if you're spoiler-phobicthe movie involves a guy named Walker (as in Dubya's middle moniker) who unites people in fear of a perhaps exaggerated or misplaced enemy. Got it? Scared?
(By the way, do you think M. NIGHT SHYAMALAN tells his wife a different twist every night before they go to bed? You know: "I have three bizarrely placed nipples you don't know about." "The M stands for Maggie. I'm a dame." "I don't exist!" and so on.)
From Walker, we leap to Stander, the offbeat little movie with comely THOMAS JANE as the real South African copwith two nippleswho became a bank robber in order to protest Bush, I mean apartheid. At a party at Buttera/k/a I Can't Believe It's Not Belgo!I asked Jane if he's sure the guy wasn't just crime-spreeing for fun and profit. "I think people do what they do for incomprehensible reasons," he said, earnestly, "and people attach their own sense of meaning to it. The best political acts are done for personal reasons. The deeper you're invested in it, the stronger your action becomes, and then people can hang off the branches of those actions and if they're well rooted, they'll support various political banners." Yikes! This was so much deeper than my usual level of party talk (you know, "Great news! I was mentioned on AmIAnnoying.com!") that I went into Butter shock, but not before asking if Jane's from the really trashy part of Maryland. "We lived in the sticks," he admitted unapologetically. "We were briars." I had no idea what that meant, but I would love to hang off the branches.
We hung on for dear life at the 60 Thompson roof party for MOBY's teany line of bottled beverages, angling to stay under the awning as the weather made us curse out Mother Nature again. But there were no sharksand besides, the main torrent was that of Moby's drinks, which come in flavors like "peach berry green tea" and bear labeled messages like "So what are antioxidants . . . ?" I have no idea, but I do know what caffeine is and so does Moby, who admitted that as a result, "Every night around 3 or 4 a.m., I wake up from a deep sleep wth severe muscle clenching." Baby, I sleep finethat's the great thing about not having muscles.

Reasons for Respite
A new study shows a direct correlation between respite services and lower hospitalization rates for children with special needs. So why are these sanity-saving services so difficult for parents to secure? Does your ADHD child benefit from them?
Our family is going through a tough transition right now. My niece Hannah, who has been our primary respite provider and Natalie's summer tutor for the last few years, is moving out of state in a few weeks. We're happy for Hannah, and her husband, Adam, as they take this next exciting step in their lives as young marrieds. But that happiness is tempered by some...

Former Dallas Cowboys tight end Martellus Bennett had some beef with his former team. After he signed with the New York Giants last month, he was quoted saying (about the Cowboys), "I just want to kick those guys' asses." It seemed kind of random, but his frustrations must have just boiled over after getting no playing time behind Jason Witten. Dallas Cowboys fans, as outspoken as they are, got all NSFW on Martellus on Twitter, dropping f-bombs left and right.
This is one of the Twitter beefs we can empathize with. Bennett was a total underachiever in Dallas, and seeing him run his mouth at this former team moments after signing with their rival is a pretty douchey move. On top of the "I just want to kick those guys' asses" quote, he continued to say:
"That is what it is all about. I mean we are cool but we ain't that cool, know what I am saying? I kind of got some ill feelings towards them overall. It is a game, I kind of hate everybody, honestly, in the NFL."
Sounds like a complete idiot. Oh, and he showed up to camp weighing 291 pounds. Can't say the Giants were happy with their new tight end showing up looking like a tub of lard.

The British system
Great Britain's current system of secondary education is the successor to a slightly older system that assigned students at age 11 to one of three types of schools by means of selection tests. From the 1950s and '60s these schools were gradually replaced by a single type of school called a comprehensive school, which admits children irrespective of ability or aptitude and which offers both academic and vocational programs under one roof.
In Britain the first stage of education is called primary education and includes students from ages 5 (4 in Northern Ireland) to 11 (12 in Scotland). About 90 percent of students then attend comprehensive schools. These schools are organized in various ways, serving ages 11 to 18; 11–12 to 16; or 12–14 to 16–18. Most of the remaining students receive secondary education in secondary modern or grammar schools (these being remnants of the old tripartite school system), to which they are assigned after selective procedures at age 11.
The Education Reform Act 1988 established a national curriculum and regular assessment of performance for children of ages 5 to 16 in all state schools in England and Wales. Similar legislation was passed in Northern Ireland in 1990. In England, Scotland, and Wales parents have a statutory right to express preference for a specific school.
Those students seeking university entrance must successfully complete a series of examinations that result in the General Certificate of Education. These examinations have two levels: General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE; formerly "ordinary") and advanced. Entry to a university requires a prescribed combination of passes on the GCSE and advanced level in such subjects as English, foreign language, science, and mathematics. The sixth-form curriculum (i.e., that of the last two years of secondary school) is largely oriented toward preparation for the advanced-level examination and provides intense specialization.
In Britain a small, separate, but highly significant group of independent schools also exists. These primary and secondary schools are financially self-supporting. The best known of the independent schools are the "public schools," some of which, notably Eton and Harrow, have long maintained a distinguished reputation. These schools for centuries have prepared students academically for higher education, typically at the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, and ultimately for leadership in British life. Although a controversial element in British education and frequently accused of reinforcing invidious social distinctions, these institutions remain popular.
The Soviet system
The contemporary nations that once formed the U.S.S.R. have an educational pattern that differs distinctively from that just described. The first stage of education takes place in an eight-year general-education school. After graduating from the eight-year school, students, if qualified, have a number of secondary schools open to them, including polytechnical or general secondary schools and various vocational or technical schools. Education authorities attempt to provide prolonged guidance for the pupils and place them into increasingly differentiated programs of study throughout the last few years of the elementary school and the first two or three years of secondary school. Many of those leaving the elementary school go directly into an occupation. Most critical for students wishing to continue their education is the selection at 17 or 18 years of age for higher education. The universities and higher institutes admit only 15 to 20 percent of the graduates of the secondary-level institutions. Most graduates of the polytechnical or general secondary schools are required to take jobs for two or three years, after which those qualified may proceed to higher education.
The U.S. system
Historically, the United States has made little distinction between primary and elementary education—i.e., between those lower schools that prepared students for advanced (or higher) education and those schools that merely provided literacy and some general education for larger groups of children. This heritage has led in the United States to a single system of elementary and secondary education for the great majority of its students.
In the United States, education is the responsibility of the individual states; therefore, some variation in structure exists. Typically, however, students at the age of 13 or 14 enter a neighbourhood secondary school; the education there usually lasts for four years, and the students graduate at age 18 on average.
In the United States, more than 80 percent of the secondary-age groups attend secondary school. The American goal for decades has been to provide secondary education for all within a single type of institution popularly referred to as the comprehensive high school. Although the precise meaning of this term is frequently not clear, comprehensive schools usually include a broad program of general and specialized curricula and accommodate a wide range in the academic abilities of the pupils.

A will is a simple and effective tool at accomplishing a number of goals and estate planning needs, but it can't do everything. Here are some goals that a properly drafted and executed will can and cannot accomplish.
A will CAN be used:
A will enables you to determine where your property will go, including to people who are or aren't your heirs rather than letting it go where the intestacy laws of your state dictate it will go if there is no will.
