Microarray data are often used for patient classification and gene selection. An appropriate tool for end users and biomedical researchers should combine user friendliness with statistical rigor, including carefully avoiding selection biases and allowing analysis of multiple solutions, together with access to additional functional information of selected genes. Methodologically, such a tool would be of greater use if it incorporates state-of-the-art computational approaches and makes source code available.
We have developed GeneSrF, a web-based tool, and varSelRF, an R package, that implement, in the context of patient classification, a validated method for selecting very small sets of genes while preserving classification accuracy. Computation is parallelized, allowing to take advantage of multicore CPUs and clusters of workstations. Output includes bootstrapped estimates of prediction error rate, and assessments of the stability of the solutions. Clickable tables link to additional information for each gene (GO terms, PubMed citations, KEGG pathways), and output can be sent to PaLS for examination of PubMed references, GO terms, KEGG and and Reactome pathways characteristic of sets of genes selected for class prediction. The full source code is available, allowing to extend the software. The web-based application is available from http://genesrf2.bioinfo.cnio.es webcite. All source code is available from Bioinformatics.org or The Launchpad. The R package is also available from CRAN.
varSelRF and GeneSrF implement a validated method for gene selection including bootstrap estimates of classification error rate. They are valuable tools for applied biomedical researchers, specially for exploratory work with microarray data. Because of the underlying technology used (combination of parallelization with web-based application) they are also of methodological interest to bioinformaticians and biostatisticians.
Patient classification and gene selection related to classification are common uses of microarray data (e.g., review and references in [1]), but statistically rigorous and user-friendly tools for gene selection in the context of class prediction are rare. Such a tool should address two major issues. First, it should provide unbiased estimates of the prediction error rate of the procedure. Most users are by now aware of "selection bias", as originally reported in [2,3], but bias caused by trying different methods and/or sets of genes, and choosing the one with the smallest cross-validated error rate [4] is still not widely recognized. In this later case we need a nested [4] or double or full cross-validation [5] to estimate the error rate of the rule or procedure. Second, we need to assess the so called multiplicity (or lack of uniqueness) problem: variable selection with microarray data can lead to many solutions that have similar prediction errors, but that share few common genes [1,6-9]. Choosing any one particular set of genes without being aware of the variability in solutions can lead to a false sense of certainty in the selected set.
From a users' perspective, an ideal tool should also be user friendly and provide additional resources to ease the interpretation of results [10]. Web-based tools are an excellent platform as they do not require software installation or upgrades from the user. In addition, web based tools, can be designed to allow easy access to information such as Gene Ontology terms, the UCSC and Ensembl databases, KEGG and Reactome pathways, or PubMed references, thus enhancing the biological interpretation of results [11]. Moreover, web-based tools, if implemented appropriately, can harvest computational resources rarely available to most individual users [10], including the increasing availability of multicore processors and easily accessible clusters made with off-the-shelf components [12]. Currently, the major opportunities for improved performance as well as the ability to analyze ever larger data sets do not lie in faster CPUs but in being able to use parallel and distributed computing to exploit multi-core servers and clusters [13,14]. In addition to providing a benefit to the end user (decreased execution time), tools that combine parallelization with web-based programming are important methodological developments.
Finally, a tool that fulfills the above requirements is of much greater relevance if it makes its source code available under an open-source license. Source code availability allows the research community to experiment with, and improve upon, the method and fix bugs, encourages reproducible research, allows to verify claims by method developers, makes the international research community the owner of the tools needed to carry out its work and, thus, creates the conditions for swift progress upon previous work, concerns of particular importance in bioinformatics [15,16].
We have developed GeneSrF and varSelRF (a web-based application and R package, respectively), that satisfy the above requirements. The only available web-based tools with similar scope are M@CBETH [17] and Prophet [18]. These tools, however, do not examine the multiplicity problem, cannot benefit from multicore processors or computing clusters, and do not make source code available. M@CBETH, in addition, is restricted to two-class problems and does not focus on the gene selection problem. Prophet, in turn, does not seem to solve satisfactorily the biased error rate problem (it reports the error rate as that of the classifier with smallest cross-validated error rate, without evaluating the error rate of the rule itself).
The core statistical functionality is provided by the varSelRF package for R [19]. This package implements the procedure in [1] for gene selection using random forests, building upon the randomForest package [20], an R port by A. Liaw and M. Wiener of the original code by L. Breiman and A. Cutler. We use MPI [21] for parallelization via the R-packages Rmpi [22] by H. Yu, and Snow [23] by L. Tierney, A. J. Rossini, Na Li and H. Sevcikova. In the web-based application, the CGI, initial data validation, and the setting-up and closing of the parallel infrastructure (booting and halting the LAM/MPI universes) is implemented with Python. Our installation runs on a cluster of 30 nodes, each with two dual-core AMD Opteron processors (see Figure 1 for details).
Figure 1. Example output. Some figures from the output of the web-based application (see [24]). a) Out-of-bag error rate vs. the number of genes in the class prediction model, for both the complete, original data set (red line) and the 200 bootstrap samples (black lines). These figures can help identify the best number of genes in the class prediction model. It seems, that we can do fairly well using just 2 genes in our model. This is the conclussion we reach both with the complete, original data set and the bootstrap samples. b) Probability of class membership of each sample, from out-of-bag samples (i.e., bootstrap runs where the sample was not included in the training group). Most samples are well classified, specially those from class ALL (their average out of bag probability of membership in their true class is larger than 0.75). c) Importance spectrum plots can help decide on the number of "relevant variables": we compare the variable importance plots from the original data with variable importance plots that are generated when the class labels and the predictors are independent (class labels are randomly permuted). In this case the first 30 variables have importances well above those from sets with randomly permuted class labels. d) Selection probability plots: for each of the top ranked genes from the original sample, the probability that it is included among the top ranked k genes (blue: k = 20; red: k = 100) from the (200) bootstrap samples. Thus, these plots can be a measure of our confidence in the stability of choosing a number of k ranked genes. In this case, with k = 20 only the two or three most important genes are repeatedly chosen among the best 20. If we select the first 100 genes, the 30 best ranked ones appear at least in 75% of the bootstrap samples.
The input for the web-based application are either plain text files, or files that come from other tools of the Asterias suite [12]. GeneSrF has been running in production use for over a year. Further documentation and examples for the web-based application are available from its on-line help, and for the R package from the standard R documentation system. A fully commented example of the output is provided in the on-line help [24]. Sample output is shown in Figure 1. Bug-tracking and additional tests are available from Bioinformatics.org and The Launchpad.
Benchmarks and run time
The parallelization has been implemented over bootstrap resamples. The speedups achieved by parallelizing are shown in Figure 2a), where we plot the fold increase in speed achieved by increasing the number of Rslaves (concurrently executing R processes). Parallelization makes a dramatic difference in speed for all the data sets shown. Up to 20 Rmpi slaves, the increases in speed are almost linear with number of slaves. Beyond 20 slaves, speed increases are slower with number of slaves: as is known from the parallelization literature [21,25], in addition to number of CPUs other factors can become limiting, in our case most likely bandwith and latency of inter-node communication, and potential bottlenecks from memory and cache in nodes made of dual-core processors [26].
Figure 2. Benchmarks and run time. a) Fold increase in speed from parallelization. Ratios of the user wall time of execution of the R code (varSelRFBoot without previous model fit) between a run with a single Rmpi slave and runs with different numbers of Rmpi slaves (the number of simultaneously executing R processes) for five data sets (see [1] for details). In the legend, in parentheses the user wall time of the execution with a single Rmpi slave for each data set. In all cases (except "1", "60(2)", and "90(3)") there were four Rmpi slaves per node. The timings were obtained in an otherwise idle cluster with 30 nodes, each with two dual-core AMD Opteron 2.2 GHz CPUs and 6 GB RAM, running Debian GNU/Linux and a stock 2.6.8 kernel, with version 7.1.2 of LAM/MPI and version 2.1.4 (patched) of R. The values for "60(2)" refer two a configuration with 2 slaves per node (recall that a node with two dual core CPUs is not identical to a node with 4 CPUs), and the value "90(3)" to a configuration with 3 slaves per node. b) Scaling of user wall time. User wall time as a function of number of arrays and number of genes when executing the R function varSelRFBoot without previous model fit. Shown are three replicate runs. In each run, the arrays and genes are selected randomly from the complete original data set. Further details about the Prostate data set from [1]. Hardware and software as above. We used 4 Rmpi slaves per node (and, thus, a total of 120 slaves). c) User wall time of the web-based application. User wall time for complete runs (i.e., including upload of files and return of complete HTML page) for ten different data sets (see details in [1]). Under the name of each data set, the number of arrays and the number of genes are indicated. For each data set, three replicate runs were conducted. Hardware and software configuration as above, with the default settings for the web-based application (4 Rmpi slaves per node, and thus a total of 120 slaves).
The scaling of user wall time of the R code (varSelRFBoot) with number of arrays and number of genes is shown in Figure 2b), with the default parallelization scheme and with a data set that allows for exploring a range of numbers of arrays and genes. User wall time increases approximately linearly with the number of arrays and number of genes over a realistic range of arrays and genes (e.g., when we double the number of arrays from 40 to 80 the user wall time increases by a factor of slightly over 2).
The run time for the web-based application for a wide range of data sets is shown Figure 2c). These timings include the time needed to upload the files (and thus can be affected by internet connection speed) and to prepare and return to the user the final figures. Note that in most cases the complete analysis is finished within 20 minutes.
Scripts for timing experiments are included with the source code (directory "Benchmarks").
Results and discussion
Our procedure is explicitly targeted to select very small sets of genes, and has been shown [1] to have a classification error rate on-par with other, state-of-the-art, classification procedures. Additionally, our programs allow the exploratory usage of random forest for identifying large subsets of genes potentially relevant for class prediction. In contrast to other tools, such as M@CBETH [17], we are not restricted to two-class problems.
To avoid underestimating the error rate of the classification procedure, we use the bootstrap (the 0.632+ approach of [27]). As in [1], we bootstrap the complete procedure, including selecting the classifier with minimal out-of-bag error rate (thus, this is a "full" or "double" bootstrap procedure, sensu [5]), and thus our estimates of error rate are not affected by selection biases. This contrasts, for instance, with Prophet [18], where the error rate reported is that of the classifier with the smallest cross-validated error rate. Based upon the bootstrap results, we also show the average out-of-bag predictions for each sample, allowing to easily asses poorly predicted samples and potential outliers. There are other tools available for performing cross-validation and bootstrap of classification methods, such as the R package ipred [28] by A. Peters and T. Hothorn, the BioConductor package MCRestimate [29] by M. Ruschhaupt, U. Mansmann, P. Warnat, W. Huber and A. Benner, specifically targeted to computing misclassification error rates combining the gene selection and classification steps, or the caGEDA web application [10] that incorporates bootstrap, leave-one-out, and random resampling validation of several classifiers. Our approach, however, has been tailored to our own variable selection procedure and has been parallelized. A unique feature of GeneSrF and varSelRF are their emphasis on examining possible multiple solutions.
Since we obtain 200 resamples in the process of bootstrapping (see above) there is little added computational cost to providing analysis of stability and multiplicity of solutions. We report the number of genes selected and the identity of the individual genes selected in the original sample and the 200 bootstrap runs, including frequencies of every gene selected in the solutions. Moreover, the biological interpretation of the results is enhanced by the access to additional information. If the input file contains gene identifiers for either human, mouse, or rat genomes (in the form of Affymetrix IDs, Clone IDs, GenBank Accession numbers, Ensembl Gene IDs, Unigene clusters, or Entrez Gene IDs), for each gene in the results, the web-based application provides a link to IDClight [11], which allows the user to obtain additional information, including mapping between gene and protein identifiers, PubMed references, Gene Ontology terms, and KEGG and Reactome pathways. The multiple solutions can be further studied by sending sets of selected genes to our tool PaLS [30] to examine PubMed references, Gene Ontology terms, KEGG pathways, or Reactome pathways that are common to a user-selected percentage of genes or lists (bootstrap solutions). A fully commented example of the output is provided in the on-line help [24].
Finally, GeneSrF is one of the very few tools for the analysis of gene expression data that uses parallelization and, as far as we know, the only web-based tool to use parallelization for gene selection and classification. This is an important methodological novelty, as we can no longer expect that increases in single-CPU speed will allow us to analyze larger data sets in shorter time: the rate of increase in CPU speed has slowed down considerably in the last five years but, in contrast, increasing numbers of CPU cores (either in individual machines – including laptops – or via off-the-shelf computing clusters) are becoming much more affordable [13,14]. Thus, further decreases in user wall time (time to wait for a result) and ability to tackle more complex problems will depend on our ability to use parallel, distributed, and concurrent programming. GeneSrF therefore represents a case example on combining parallel computing with a user-friendly web-based application for the analysis of gene expression data and, by making the full source code available, allows other researchers to build upon our developments.
Future work focuses on extending the software to use random forest-related techniques applicable to heterogeneous types of variables such as addition of categorical data [31] and other clinical information. As well, we are exploring alternative mechanisms and languages for parallelizing and distributing computations, and we are rewriting most of the code using Pylons [32], a Python web framework, to try to simplify installation of the web-based application. Installation now involves several steps (see [33]), and the most time consuming are setting up and verifying the LAM/MPI environment, and using the correct paths in files involved in controlling the MPI environment and executing and controlling R.
varSelRF and GeneSrF implement a validated method for gene selection and provide bootstrap estimates of classification error rate, take advantage of computing clusters and multicore processors, and encourage careful examination of the multiplicity of solutions problems. Thus, these are both useful tools for applied biomedical researchers using microarray and gene expression data, and represent unique methodological developments in the area of web-based gene expression analysis tools.

CHESAPEAKE -- Two adults have been displaced after a fire damaged their home in the Deep Creek section Chesapeake Friday.
Firefighters were called to a house fire in the 2300 block of Halyard Lane around 3:30 p.m.
Heavy smoke and flames could be seen coming from the two-story home.
It took less than 30 minutes to bring the fire under control, but fire and smoke damage left the home uninhabitable, officials said.
The cause of the fire appears to be a malfunctioning HVAC unit.
There were no injuries, and the displaced occupants are working with their insurance company for lodging arrangements.

don't drastically change what you have already; however, you really should learn to play the way that's "right" for you. and don't buy into the stereotypes behind each shot. . . like that one-handed bh's are tough to execute on high balls . . . and that players wit two-handed bhs have trouble slicing and perhaps hitting a bh volley. it all depends on the player. i think whether you go w/ a one-hander or a 2-handed bh is a matter of FEEL, COMFORT, and TOUCH among many other things.
One thing to consider is your STRENGTH (or if you're still growing or planning to soon commit to a strict fitness program, the range of strength you'll most likely have in your tennis playing days). many players of average strength opt for the two-hander simply to get more pop or more pop and control.
your MOBILITY should be factored in as well. having a two-hander makes it a bit harder to reach some balls on the run. if you're not the fastest guy, a 2-hander may make you more vulnerable to a well-placed ball to the bh side. on the flipside, if you're quick, having a 2-hander may be fine as your mobility will make up for that limitation in reach.
just some very general ideas

Godzilla flies to top of North American box office
Published on May 19, 2014 12:57 AM
LOS ANGELES (AFP) - The latest remake of classic monster flick Godzilla stormed to the top of the North American box office in its opening weekend with a killer US$93.2 million (S$117 million), industry estimates said on Sunday.
The latest incarnation of the 1954 classic stars Breaking Bad star Bryan Cranston and Juliette Binoche and continues the original's exploration of the threat of nuclear disasters.
The movie pushed raunchy comedy Neighbours to a distant second place.
Starring Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne as new parents who find themselves living next door to a raucous fraternity, Universal Pictures' Neighbours earned US$26 million from Friday to Sunday, according to tracker Exhibitor Relations.

Probe into whether tornado hit NYC in deadly storm
NEW YORK Residents, utility crews and railroad workers were cleaning up debris Friday after a brief but fierce storm barreled through the city, tearing up trees, stripping roofs from homes, disrupting train service and killing at least one person.
The National Weather Service was to dispatch investigators to assess whether a tornado touched down Thursday evening during the storm. Tornado warnings had been issued for Staten Island, Brooklyn and Queens.
Officials at Long Island Rail Road, the nation's largest commuter rail line, said crews worked through the night to clear tracks of fallen trees, which caused service to be suspended temporarily between Penn Station in Manhattan and Jamaica, Queens. Full service was restored around 5 a.m. Friday. Limited westbound service also was stored Friday morning on the Port Washington branch, but eastbound service remained suspended.
Nearly 26,000 customers remained without power on Friday, Consolidated Edison spokeswoman Elizabeth Clark said. She said hardest hit was Queens, with 24,700 outages. At the height of the storm, a total of 37,000 customers were without power. Crews would be working to restore power throughout the day, she said.
A woman was killed when a tree fell on a car parked on a road in Queens. Driver Iline Levakis, 30, of Mechanicsburg, Pa., was pronounced dead at the scene and a 60-year-old passenger suffered minor injuries, police said. Numerous minor injuries were reported elsewhere.
"The good news is that most people were safe, just annoyed - traffic being bad or a tree coming down in their yard," Mayor Michael Bloomberg said after touring storm damage in Queens.
Residents were awed by the power of the swift storm.
"A huge tree limb, like 25 feet long, flew right up the street, up the hill and stopped in the middle of the air 50 feet up in this intersection and started spinning," said Steve Carlisle, 54. "It was like a poltergeist."
"Then all the garbage cans went up in the air and this spinning tree hits one of them like it was a bat on a ball. The can was launched way, way over there," he said, pointing at a building about 120 feet away where a metal garbage can lay flattened.
Fire officials were inspecting 10 buildings in Brooklyn whose roofs were peeled off or tattered by the wind.
"The wind was holding my ceiling up in the air. It was like a wave, it went up and fell back down," said 58-year-old Ruby Ellis, who was doing dishes in her top-floor kitchen when the storm hit. "After the roof went up, then all the rain came down and I had a flood."
A neighbor in an adjacent building, Julian Amy, said he was sitting in his first-floor apartment when the storm barreled down his street. "I just heard a loud boom," the 33-year-old said. "I thought it was a truck accident."
Residents of the top floors of the buildings were evacuated. A structural engineer was called in to assess the damage.
Investigators planned to spend several hours Friday looking over the area and mapping out the width and intensity of the storm to determine if a tornado touched down, said Kyle Struckmann, a National Weather Service meteorologist.

You know what I would have liked to see added to Engineers?

You know what I would have liked to see added to Engineers?
Right now, two abilities of Engineers are generally considered duds: EPS Power Transfer and Nadion Inversion. There are too many ways to gain a simple power boost, which is all that EPS Power Transfer does, and the DEM doff has obviated Nadion for most purposes. Heck, EPS Power Transfer has the same power level boost as the Red Matter Capacitor, but it doesn't even fix disabled subsystems like RMC does!
Plus, the Engineer in general has a dearth of team-oriented skills. EPS Power Transfer is the only non-fleet ability that can be used on teammates, but because it's only a power boost it rarely finds much use.
A possible solution? Improve EPS Power Transfer!
My proposal:
EPS Power Transfer applies secondary bonuses from all EPtX abilities for duration.
Secondary bonuses' values are the same of EPtXs of the same rank. That is, EPS Power Transfer 1 grants the secondary bonuses from EPtS1, EPtW1, EPtA1, EPtE1, while EPS Power Transfer 2 grants the bonuses from EPtX2, etc.
So, EPS Power Transfer 3 would look something like this:
EPS Power Transfer 3
2 minutes
+25 power to all subsystems
(Scales with Starship Electro-Plasma Systems)
+XX% Power Transfer Rate
(Scales with Starship Electro-Plasma Systems)
+16.6% all Energy Damage Strength
(From EPtW3)
+30% Shield Damage Resistance
(From EPtS3)
+25 Flight Speed
(From EPtE3)
+XX Turn
(From EPtE3)
+75 Stealth
(From EPtA3)
+1.5% StealthSight
(From EPtA3)
+XX Starship Graviton Generators
(From EPtA3)
+XX Starship Particle Generators
(From EPtA3)
+XX Starship Subspace Decompilers
(From EPtA3)
Repairs all disabled subsystems
(Sorry, don't have the actual numbers for EPtW3 and EPtA3 handy.)
From a PvP perspective, this would finally give engineers an awesome team-castable multipurpose buff; throw it on an ally who needs that extra shield resist boost, or a science ship about to use his disables/pushes, or an escort going in for the kill. It gives a better role for Engineers in team settings, making them crucial parts of the team alpha or allowing them to swoop in and save a dying teammate.
From a PvE perspective, moar powah = moar fun!
From a RP perspective, this also makes great sense. EPtX is already a "More power to X!" command, and that provides the justification for its secondary abilities; EPS Power Transfer is supposed to be the Engineer's ancient secret forbidden dark magic technique of shouting "I'M GIVING IT ALL SHE'S GOT!" and gesticulating wildly, so why doesn't it provide the secondary bonuses that the EPtX abilities do?
I really wish something like this had come from the LoR addition; instead, we got the rather meh trait EPS Manifold Efficiency, and the even-more-self-focused trait of Grace Under Fire. Hopefully they'll revamp Engineers in a future patch; a poor Engineer can dream, yes?
Resist viewer! See shield/hull resists!

The fuel level sensor can fail causing erratic or inaccurate fuel gauge readings. The Check Engine Light may also illuminate. Nissan has recalled 2006 - 2008 vehicles only for this fuel gauge issue. For more information on the recall, please click here»Google+
Car Problem Reports
Nissan Frontier Check Engine Light Due to Faulty Fuel Level Sensor
Nissan Frontier Problem
Model Years Affected: 2000, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010
Average Mileage: 83,310 mi (19,600 mi - 160,000 mi)
Jerrick, 2007 Nissan Frontier, 77,100 miRookie
I have had nothing but problems out of my vehicle and now we are the end of warranty, by 5 months and I am told that I need a Canister Vent Control Valve and a Evaporation Control Canister for my vehicle that has been well taken care of, oil changes regularly, washed and pampered. My vehicle has 77,711 miles on it and it is going to cost me 700 dollars to get it fixed! It was just in the Nissan Dealership for the Gas Sensor that went bad in JUNE, a recall on the airbags in MAY and now this. Nissan has gone down hill and I will be sure to pass it along, that Nissan's now deals with "Throw Away" vehicles! You pay 30 grand for a vehcile to last you 5 years, really???? WOW! I am beyond upset at how Nissan handles their customers, vehicles and warranties! NEXT TIME I WILL BUY A CHEVY!
Visitor, 2007 Nissan Frontier, 105,500 mi
Gas was reading just below half. I stopped to fill it up and the needle didn't move. I shut the truck off and restarted it and the Check Engine Soon Light came on and the fuel gage dropped to empty.
Visitor, 2005 Nissan Frontier, 89,006 mi
Fuel sensor doesnt work. Nissan decided it would be best to cover some vehicles but not others with the identical problem.
Visitor, 2008 Nissan Frontier, 65,000 mi
08 Frontier. Fuel sensor failed, check engine light stays on. Contacted Nissan since this was a known defect and after giving them my VIN #, they said they couldn't cover the repairs, even though the recall was supposed to cover the 08 models. Took my complaint all the way to the Corporate level and they still wouldn't honor repair work on a KNOWN DEFECT for that model year.
Visitor, 2008 Nissan Frontier, 72,000 mi
Mileage is approximate but when I fill the tank with fuel, the fuel gauge goes to empty, the low fuel light comes on, then the service engine soon light comes on. Drive it a couple of days and the fuel gauge slowly returns to normal. Happens every time I add fuel.
Visitor, 2003 Nissan Frontier, 79,850 mi
Had erratic fuel gauge readings for 40,000 miles (I purchased used with 40,000 already on it)... Check engine light just came on so I purchased an OBD 2 scanner and got the P0463 code related to a bad fuel level sensor.
Visitor, 2007 Nissan Frontier, 60,000 mi
fuel sensor failure has not been replaced
Visitor, 2005 Nissan Frontier, 33,000 mi
Non functioning or incorrect fuel level readings. New fuel sender installed.
Visitor, 2005 Nissan Frontier, 60,000 mi
check engine light coming on the when I fuel the gauge does not work for a while then it resets.
Visitor, 2008 Nissan Frontier, 62,000 mi
The check engine light is on after replacing gas cap and other parts. Now my mechanic said that the problem is in the gas tank valve. No solution yet.

Linc Energy moves closer to royalty revenue from Carmichael mine
Published on Jul 31, 2014 10:25 AM
SINGAPORE - Oil and gas producer Linc Energy said on Thursday that it is one step closer to earning royalty revenue from the Carmichael Coal Mine and Rail Infrastructure project in Australia.
The A$16.5 billion (S$19.1 billion), 60 million tonne project recently received approval from Australia's Federal Minister for the Environment Greg Hunt, Linc Energy said.
The Singapore-listed company sold the project's underlying coal asset to the Adani Group in August 2012 and now holds an inflation-indexed A$2 per tonne royalty for production from the Carmichael Coal Mine.
Assuming Adani meets its predicted peak production target of 60 million tonnes per year, the royalty payable to Linc Energy would generate approximately A$133 million a year in revenue for Linc Energy.

Halozyme and Ventana enter into global agreement to develop companion diagnostic
Halozyme (HALO) and Ventana Medical Systems, a member of the Roche (RHHBY), announced a global agreement to collaborate on the development of, and for Ventana to ultimately commercialize, a companion diagnostic assay for use with Halozyme's investigational new drug, PEGPH20. The Ventana assay will be used to identify high levels of hyaluronan. HA is a glycosaminoglycan that can accumulate around cancer cells. Halozyme has announced plans for rollout of a global phase 3 clinical study in 2016 targeting metastatic pancreatic cancer patients with high HA levels using its PEGPH20 in combination with ABRAXANE and gemcitabine. Under the agreement, Ventana will develop an in vitro diagnostic, under design control, using Halozyme's proprietary HA binding protein, with the intent of submitting it for regulatory approval in the United States, Europe and other countries. The financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

Genentech announces interim results from POPLAR study
Genentech, a member of the Roche Group announced interim results from a global, randomized Phase II study, POPLAR, in people with previously treated non-small cell lung cancer, NSCLC. The study showed the investigational cancer immunotherapy MPDL3280A doubled the likelihood of survival; hazard ratio [HR]=0.47) in people whose cancer expressed the highest levels of PD-L1 compared with docetaxel chemotherapy. An improvement in survival was also observed in people who had medium and high or any level of PD-L1 expression, as characterized by a test being developed by Roche. MPDL3280A was generally well tolerated and adverse events were consistent with what has been previously reported for MPDL3280A in NSCLC. Updated results will be presented in an oral session at the 51st Annual Meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology. "In our study of MPDL3280A in previously treated lung cancer, the amount of PD-L1 expressed by a person's cancer correlated with improvement in survival," said Sandra Horning, M.D., chief medical officer and head of Global Product Development. "The goal of PD-L1 as a biomarker is to identify people most likely to experience improved overall survival with MPDL3280A alone, and which people may be appropriate candidates for a combination of medicines."

Selling the Republican brand will be easier once the consequences of Obama's choices are clear
- By John HannahJohn Hannah is a senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, focusing on U.S. strategy. During the presidency of George W. Bush, he served for eight years on the staff of Vice President Cheney, including as the vice president's national security advisor.
Originally published as part of a roundtable discussion on an article by Danielle Pletka about the future of the Republican party.
Danielle Pletka's thought-provoking piece on the future of foreign policy in the Republican Party deserves more systematic and fulsome treatment than time and space currently allow. Some random reactions will have to suffice for now. That said, I very much look forward to the debate that Pletka invites. It's indeed an important one. The intra-GOP divisions to which she alludes are in some cases deep and wide. Moreover, they frequently appear to touch on matters of first principle that not long ago seemed largely settled — an apparent shattering of the Reagan-era consensus, the long-term consequences of which I sense may trouble me somewhat more than they do her.
Pletka suggests that the GOP must be a party that believes there are things worth fighting for. Agreed. But what, exactly? Elsewhere, she makes the case for America's "obligation (not merely the occasional inclination) to help others attain the benefits of a free society." What's the connection, if any, between those two important thoughts? And doesn't that go to the heart of the larger problem that seems to be bothering a lot of Americans when it comes to the Republican Party? Not that they don't think we'll use force, but that we've been all too eager to pull the trigger? What's the limiting principle? Where won't we fight and why?
Pletka of course understands this well. She notes the importance of Republicans explaining to the American people "how much can be done consistent with America's deepest principles but without the use of force, without threats, without protectionism, and without breaking the bank." That seems to me an essential task going forward: to restore the public's faith that the GOP is not only the party most willing to stand up and defend America's vital interests in a dangerous world, but also the one that will do so employing the most creative, competent, and forward-looking strategies — a national security policy that makes the use of force not just the last resort, but almost always unnecessary because of what Pletka calls the exercise of "genuine American leadership that meets challenges before they become threats."
In this regard, perhaps more than Pletka, I tend to think that the GOP will need to engage in a more thorough-going reckoning with the Bush-Cheney years, particularly the Iraq and Afghanistan experiences. Not, as she correctly warns, for the purposes of "killing" that legacy, but rather for an honest accounting of the good, the bad, and the ugly, and the lessons learned. It's necessary for its own sake of course. But it's also important, I think, as part of the task of rebuilding the public's overall confidence in the Republican foreign policy brand.
A few odds and ends. I don't think Pletka mentions free trade and energy policy. The Republicans should own these issues, especially the impending American oil and gas boom. The impact on America's economic strength at home and strategic flexibility abroad promise to be revolutionary if properly and comprehensively exploited.
Finally, it's worth noting that the speed of the GOP comeback will at least in part be determined by what happens in the world between now and 2016. Pletka is harshly critical of President Obama's foreign-policy record. I generally don't disagree. But the fact is that Obama has not suffered some of the mega-disasters that so obviously plagued the administration of Jimmy Carter and made Reagan's critique so innately compelling for the American people. No Iranian hostage crisis. No Desert One fiasco. No hollow military on display. No Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. While it's clear to Pletka and me that Obama's policies are sowing the seeds of expanding international instability, chaos and violence, the fact is that the day of reckoning has not yet come — when the price for "leading from behind" will really come due in much higher sacrifices of American blood, treasure, and honor. Benghazi was but the canary in the coal mine, a foreshadowing of the super storm yet to hit.
But for now, it must be said that Obama has largely succeeded in avoiding the worst, in kicking the can down the road. Can it go on for another four years? I would guess not. But I could be wrong. If I am, if Obama's luck continues to hold, if the world is such in 2016 that a plausible case can still be made that the Democrats have been responsible stewards of America's national security, then whatever the Republicans do in opposition to get their foreign policy house in order (as necessary and essential a task as that no doubt is) may not be enough to make an electoral difference.
John Hannah, a senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, served as national security advisor to Vice President Dick Cheney from 2005 to 2009.

If a girl's gotten me hot and bothered, and then says "no", I don't immediately lose my erection or something. But me having a boner doesn't mean I'm suddenly ruled by my penis and must do as my penis commands. Girl says no, I back off and figure out what's wrong. I may still have a raging boner, I may get blueballs. But I'm not going to rape her because of either of those facts.
That's where the difference is. Rapists don't care about her, so they satisfy themselves despite her protests. Normal men don't, because we're not rapists. If you're arguing that you can't make that decision because you have a boner, then you're either mentally deficient (not arguing that you are, just ticking a possible box), or you're actually disposed to be a rapist, or you're lying through your teeth for some godforsaken reason.
There are no other options. Every man can choose to back off when a girl says "no". Some of them choose not to.

While organizing my music (physically & digitally), I found a lot promo CDs that I totally forgot I still had. Thousands of CDs, all thanks to a few years working as a 'store artist' at Tower Records. Found titles like Dance Mix USA (VOL.1 -9) to Ultimate Dance Party, and many more dance collections.
While listening to the CDs, it brought back a lot of fun memories, and how these songs are still a club favorite, even today. A good dance jam never dies, and it also brought to mind that at an age when dance music was really started to be heard on mainstream radio, and on MTV, ah the 1990s.
While it is dance music, they categorize as 'High-Energy' music, they did come in handy at the gym, and they still do. It was also around this time, while house music started in the mid 80s, by the mid 90s, it had an updated sound with electronic style music. Thanks to the groups like the Mighty Dub Katz, and the Wamdue Project.
While there's so many good jams, here's some of my favs from both genres from the 1990s, the decade that moved dance music to high gear, and the decade that brought the most famous slang from 90s, 'The Bomb.' LOL
I remember waking up at 3am from this repetitive beat, eyes blurry, wondering what the heck is playing on MTV. Even though Daft Punk has been around since 1993, this was the song that got me interested (1999), and I got the CD at Sam Goody at Universal CityWalk the following day =)
Around the World music video, style beat reminded so much of this great song, taking you back to 1983, and definitely a pioneer in house/electro (to name only a couple) music.

LAS VEGAS, NEV (October 5, 2011) Top Rank announced today it has signed undefeated World Boxing Organization (WBO) junior welterweight champion TIMOTHY The Desert Storm BRADLEY, Jr. to an exclusive long-term promotional contract. The Top-10 pound-for-pound fighter will be making his Top Rank debut in the feature bout under the Manny Pacquiao Juan Manuel Márquez III World Welterweight Championship, on Saturday, November 12, at the sold-out MGM Grand Garden Arena. Televised live on pay-per-view, Bradley will be defending his world title against two-division world champion and former Cuban Olympic gold medalist Joel Casamayor (38-5-1, 22 KOs) of Miramar, Fla.
Tims incredible accomplishments against Alexander, Holt and Peterson have cemented him as one of the marquee fighters in the world. We look forward to working with him and further developing this chapter of his career, said Todd duBoef, president of Top Rank.
Im just so happy. I dont know what to say man. Im so excited, Bradley told The Desert Sun. My main objective was to get a promoter to build the Bradley brand, and Top Rank is good at doing that. Thats why we chose Top Rank. Its a wonderful feeling to be fighting in Vegas, especially at the MGM. All the greats fought there. Tons of great fighters fought there, and Ill be another one to add to the list.
Bradley (27-0, 11 KOs), from Palm Springs, Calif., has successfully defended his world titles five times. He won the World Boxing Council (WBC) super lightweight title when he dethroned defending champion Junior Witter via a 12-round split decision in Witters backyard of Nottingham, England in 2008. Since winning the WBC title Bradley has become an unstoppable force, successfully defending his belt against former world champions Kendall Holt, in a title unification fight (Bradley elected to keep the WBO title), and Nate Campbell, as well as top-rated junior welterweight contenders Lamont Peterson and Edner Cherry. After winning an exciting unanimous decision over undefeated and top-five world-rated welterweight contender Carlos Abregu, Bradley moved back down in weight and reunified the junior welterweight titles by blitzing undefeated WBC super lightweight champion Devon Alexander via a 10-round technical decision in January. Bradley is managed by Cameron Dunkin, the 2007 Boxing Writers Association of America Manager of the Year.
Promoted by Top Rank, in association with MP Promotions, Marquez Boxing, Tecate and MGM Grand, The Pacquiao-Marquez III world championship pay-per-view telecast, which begins at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT, will be produced and distributed live by HBO Pay-Per-View® and will be available to more than 92 million pay-per-view homes.

Team USAs Raushee Warren Advances to the Semifinals at the 2011 World Championship
(COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO.) Three-time Olympian Raushee Warren (Cincinnati, Ohio) moved on to the medal round with a quarterfinal victory over Englands Khalid Yafai on Wednesday at the 2011 World Championships in Baku, Azerbaijan. His fellow 2012 Olympians Joseph Diaz, Jr. (S. El Monte, Calif.) and Errol Spence (Desoto, Texas) both lost their quarterfinal contests but qualified for London with their top 10 finishes in Baku.
Warren faced off in a more tactical match-up on Wednesday than his third round contest the previous boxer, looking for openings in the defense of Yafai in their flyweight showdown. He held a 4-1 lead after one round, but Yafai picked up his own output in the second round to move Warrens lead to an 8-6 advantage. Yet Warren refused to let the bout get any closer in the third and final round and went on to win a 14-9 final decision. He will face Russias Misha Aloyan in semifinal round competition on Friday. Warrens victory secures the history-making boxer at least a bronze medal. It will be his third medal in World Championships action following a bronze in 2005 and gold in the 2007 World Championships.
Diaz faced a stiff test in his quarterfinal contest with Cubas Lazaro Alvarez. The American teenager fell behind early, training 6-2 after the first round. Alvarez used his height and movement to claim 13-5 advantage with one round remaining. He went on to win a 19-10 final decision over Diaz to end his medal run. Despite his loss, Diaz clinched his berth in the 2012 Olympic Games.
Spence faced a similar situation in his bout with two-time World Champion Serik Sapiyev of Kazakhstan on Wednesday. Sapiyev was very active early on in the bout and claimed a 6-3 lead after one before doubling his advantage to a 10-4 margin after two rounds of boxing. Spence couldnt overcome his deficit in the third round and dropped a 16-7 final decision. Yet the American welterweight will return home as a 2012 Olympian following his strong effort in Baku.
All of the competitors will enjoy an off day on Thursday before action resumes with semifinal round competition on Friday.
USA Boxing National Coach Joe Zanders (Long Beach, Calif.), coaches Ronald Simms (Stafford, Va.) and Manny Robles (Los Angeles, Calif.), technical advisor Ken Porter (Akron, Ohio), and Team Manager Ken Buffington (Marshalltown, Iowa) are leading the United States team in Baku.
The 2011 World Championships are the first international qualifying tournament for the 2012 Olympic Games, and the light flyweight through light heavyweight boxers must place in top ten to qualify for London while the heavyweight and super heavyweight competitors need to place in the top six.
