Bio and Links
Even though I grew up in Minnesota, I'm a lifelong fan of the New York Yankees. I enjoy visiting the graves of all types of notable people, especially Baseball Hall of Famers, presidents, and Civil War generals. One of my favorite cemeteries is Congressional Cemetery in Washington, DC, the oldest national cemetery in the country and home of Mathew Brady, John Philip Sousa, Clyde Tolson, Leonard Matlovich, and J. Edgar Hoover (on one trip there I discovered someone had left a fuchsia bra and panties on Hoover's grave). Unfortunately, I also found that this cemetery is the place where DC residents bring their dogs at 7:00 each morning (thus, this is a good time to avoid the cemetery). The dogs ran wild, crapped on graves, and sniffed my crotch (which I suppose was a tad better than sniffing the graves and crapping on my crotch). My fun with death extends beyond graveyard exploring to being a participant in a Fantasy Death League. I was the winner of our 1998 league, having correctly predicted the deaths of, among others, Pol Pot, Eddie Rabbitt, Barry Goldwater, Linda McCartney, Harry Caray, and Jack Lord. A real highlight for me was scoring 27 points (100 minus the age being the scoring system in our league) with Spiro Agnew in 1996. I made a point of visiting Spiro's grave the following July as a means of saying thanks. I work for the State of Minnesota, doing public-affairs work with the public drinking water program. I also do public speaking on the side, and one of my more popular presentations is a slide show of graves that I've visited. In addition to that, I'm a free-lance writer. I've written about 30 books, mostly about sports, for adults and young readers. My latest project is a book about the Polo Grounds, the historic stadium in New York City. I've co-authored one children's science book with my now-wife, Brenda Himrich. She and I live in Roseville, Minnesota, with our cat, Ponce. For those interested, one of the pages on my web site is a list of
Baseball Hall of Fame graves
. I started visiting Baseball Hall of Fame graves in February 1995. It took me nearly seven years, but I finished getting to all of them (184 graves later) when I visited Eddie Mathew's grave in Santa Barbara, California, on January 19, 2002. I've stayed current with almost all of the new dead Hall of Famers (over 200 now) as well as with U. S. Presidents and Vice Presidents and Minnesota governors. Find-a-Grave is a great web site, and I enjoy contributing to it.

Hi! You left a picture of a head stone on the memorial of Paddy Chayefsky (buried at Kensico Cemetery, Valhala, West Chester, Co., NY) that does not belong to his grave - it instead belongs to the graves of Winn and Susan Chayefsky, husband and wife, who are buried at the Sharon Gardens Cemetery in Valhala, West Chester Co., NY. Could you please correct this? Thanks!

LOUISVILLE The St. Lawrence Valley River Development Agency plans to make approximately $60,000 in repairs to its two buildings in the Massena Industrial Park.
The buildings at 12 Commerce Drive were bought in 2011.
The buildings were unoccupied for a number of years before we acquired them, so there are some renovations and modernization investments that need to be made in the facilities, Industrial Development Agency CEO Patrick J. Kelly said Tuesday.
The repairs will include improvements to plumbing, replacement of deteriorating doors and general utility replacements, according to River Agency board members.
The changes are intended to make the buildings more marketable to potential investors and to increase their readiness for occupancies, Mr. Kelly said.
Approximately 29,000 square feet is available for rent in two buildings. Fockler Industries, the only tenant, occupies 9,000 square feet.
The funding was provided by a grant through the Northern New York Regional Economic Development Council.
Repairs will take place early this year, after a formal grant agreement is signed between the River Agency and the Economic Development Council, Mr. Kelly said.

Time Warner Cable said Monday its raising its monthly fee to lease Internet modems from $3.95 to $5.99.
To take effect on customers next bill, the 50 percent increase comes only eight months after the company started its $3.95 modem lease fee. Before that, customers were not charged for the modems.
News of the increase arrived only a few days after customers learned theyll pay an average of $3 more a month for Internet service starting Aug. 9. When combined, price hikes for the modem fee and service fee will mean an additional $5 a month on customers bills.
Customers can avoid the modem fee $71.88 a year by buying their own Internet modems compatible with Time Warners service. A list of modem models that will work with the companys Internet service is posted on its website at http://wdt.me/QFLxb7.
The email sent to customers doesnt remind them they can buy their own modems. It does say, however, that customers who lease modems have access to 24/7 customer support and required equipment upgrades or replacements. It also notes improvements made by Time Warner to Internet services in the past year and the launch of more free WiFi hotspots available nationwide.
The fee adjustment by the company was made to deploy upgraded equipment, cycle out older modems and provide ongoing equipment and support to ensure theres optimal service for customers, said Time Warner spokesman Scott Pryzwansky.
Customers will begin seeing the increase reflected in their bills Aug. 19, he said, when the next billing cycle starts.
The modem lease fee implemented by Time Warner in November was a source of controversy, because the company notified customers only weeks before implementing the change by mailing postcards. At the time, the company stated the fee was needed keep pace with the rising cost of free repair services for customers with modems. Introducing the $3.95 fee yielded an additional $40 million a month for the company.
That fee, which took effect Oct. 15, spurred a class-action lawsuit accusing the nations second-largest cable provider of violating its own customer contracts, along with consumer fraud laws in New York and New Jersey. Time Warner has moved to dismiss the lawsuit, but attorney Steven L. Wittels said Tuesday he is optimistic the case will advance to the next stage in federal court. Mr. Wittels said the success of the suit will hinge on whether a judge agrees that the company raised fees deceptively on consumers who used its Internet modems. Mr. Wittels and the Roth Law Firm, both of New York City, are representing Time Warner customers in the lawsuits. They were filed in state Supreme Court in Manhattan and Superior Court in Bergen County, N.J.
The company is a large behemoth snubbing its nose at consumers, Mr. Wittels said, adding that the modem fee increase is more evidence of the companys deceptive practices. Theyve already been challenged in a class action lawsuit, and to add salt to the wounds, the company is simply increasing the fee to line their coffers. Its not enough that theyre already charging $4. Its a cash cow for them and easy picking from consumers.
Mr. Pryzwansky had no comment on the litigation.
Time Warners net profits rose 29.4 percent in 2012, from $1.67 billion in 2011 to $2.16 billion. Fee increases for Internet services accounted for the majority of that profit increase. Revenues for Internet services increased by 12.7 percent from 2011 to 2012, from $4.48 billion to $5.09 billion.
The cable franchise has 15 million customers nationwide and roughly 600,000 in its Central New York region, which includes the north country.

|Gas Gap 25 Cents for High Country Drivers
|Written by Steve Frank
|Monday, 19 November 2012 11:46
With the holiday season hitting, gas prices for those of us in the High Country continue at a level 25 cents higher per gallon than areas in adjoining counties. Yesterday, regular unleaded in Wilkesboro was at $3.18.9, with prices as low as $3.17.9 in the Piedmont. Here, the lowest price is $3.43.9
—and our gas gap continues to keep us paying well more than the rest of the state. Caldwell prices were as low as $3.22.9 in the US 321 corridor. State-wide, the lowest price is $3.12.9 along the US 74 corridor east of Charlotte. Predictions are for gas prices to continue go to lower through the holiday period, that depending on issues in the middle east that seem to be heating up.

The crontab entry looks good - i am wondering if this could be handled better with ftechmail...
Ok, here is what I want to do, and here is how I think I should do it.
Quick and dirty, I have a perl program I want to run every five minutes. I don't know how to make it do that, but I think crond is running, so I have two or three programs that give me a GUI for editing cron. Here is what they say
*/5 * * * 0 /home/user/location/program_to_run
Does this look like it will run my program every five minutes? If not, or if there is a better way to do it, I'm certainly open to suggestions. I tried reading the man pages for cron and crontab, but it didnt' help me any.
If you are interested in the long explanation, here it is:
I want to get my hotmail in Evolution (or Kmail, mutt, anything other than a browser). I found a program called hotwayd that I got installed, but I can't figure out how to connect to it (it is a pop3-webmail proxy). I read up on it a bit, and found that it is based on another program called httpmail. I got httpmail working, too, but the same issue. Fortunately there is a separate program with httpmail called get_httpmail. It downloads your hotmail into a standard mbox folder. Now I can use get_httpmail to download my hotmail, and use Evolution to check that local mbox for mail. Not quite as quick and easy as getting the proxy to work, but it'll do for now. The catch is that I need a way to run get_httpmail every five minutes so that I can set Evolution to check the local mbox every six minutes, and always have my mail there for me without having to manually run get_httpmail. That's why I want to schedule it. If, however, someone wants to figure out how to configure a mail client to use the httpmail/pop3 proxy, that would be even better, but I've been at that for months with no luck (even emailed the developer, and while he tried to help me get it running, when I asked what to use in the "server" settings for clients I got no response).
Thanks in advance for any help on this,
The crontab entry looks good - i am wondering if this could be handled better with ftechmail...
Doubt it. Hotmail doesn't allow simple pop logins to it.hello,
The crontab entry looks good - i am wondering if this could be handled better with ftechmail...
well, i've been fiddling with this off and on all day. all i can determine is that either A) cron isn't running, B) cron isn't telling get_httpmail.pl to run, C) get_httpmail.pl is being told to run, but isn't, or D) cron isn't running get_httpmail.pl every five minutes
i know get_httpmail.pl is working, because i can just open up a terminal and run it from the command line no problem. i'm going to look for cron logs, or something similar...does anyone have any other ideas?
according to /var/log/cron
.........CROND[8555]: (user) CMD (/home/user/programlocation/get_httpmail.pl)
that makes me think that cron is at least trying to run get_httpmail.pl, but it isn't...httpmail.pl gives output (just "this is what i'm going" stuff), does that matter? aslo, it is a pearl script (is that the right word?)...should that matter?
Hello cameron,
I would think you would have to use...
*/5 * * * 0 perl /home/user/location/script_to_run.pl
this is assuming perl is in the path.
I haven't used perl much in Linux yet, but in WinDoze you have to give the script as an argument to perl.

About Only Natural Pet Herbal Remedies
Our Only Natural Pet Herbal Remedies have evolved from the work of holistic veterinarians and experienced herbalists to bring you a wide selection of natural health care products for your animal companion. Herbal formulas are easy to administer and easy for your pet to assimilate, making these treatments both simple and effective. Herbs are also great natural sources of vitamins, antioxidants, minerals, enzymes, and many other nourishing substances.
Only the finest herbs are used in our formulas, and the careful selection and blending of these herbs helps them interact synergistically for stronger, more beneficial effects. Nothing is more natural than harnessing the healing powers of the herbs and flowers around us. When ill or injured, animals in the wild have an uncanny ability to seek out and eat plants with properties that will help them heal.
Natural therapies like our herbal formulas do not just attack the symptoms of a disorder. Instead they rebuild your companion's total health and facilitate their body's innate ability to heal itself. When natural remedies are used in conjunction with a nutritious diet, your pet can enjoy a healthier life.
The effectiveness of Laxa-Herb Herbal Formula, as with ANY herbal or natural remedy, varies with the health of the animal. An animal being fed a high quality diet with adequate vitamins and enzymes will respond better than an animal on a poor quality diet. Each animal's system needs support in healing from within. Please see our article, "What You Need to Know About Your Pet's Food," for information about feeding the best quality diet.
This product was made in a FDA-approved facility using human-grade ingredients.
Available in 2 oz and 4 oz liquid. Each 2 oz bottle contains approximately 1,050 drops, and each 4 oz bottle contains approximately 2,100 drops of the formula.

Comments about Only Natural Pet Laxa-Herb Herbal Formula:
I bought this hoping it would take care of my cats constipation problem that pops up about every 6-8 months. I gave it to him as directed for 4 days in a row with no results at all. I ended up having to take him to the Vet where they gave him an enema,brought him home and 2 days later had to take him back as he hadn't pooped in those 2 days. By now I've got a $300 Vet bill and a bottle of this product that doesn't seem to do what it says it will. So I'm not a happy camper!
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

works fine
By darlingkitty'smom
from Goodnews Bay, AK
My 17 year old cat has megacolon and hairball problems, which I am able to manage with this product, plus Natural Moves, psillium, pumpkin, probiotics, digestive enzymes, glandular powder, and her raw diet which includes daily organ meats, eggs, or sardines. Very importantly, my kitty doesn't mind the taste of the laxa-herb in her food.
worked....almost too well
By M & L's Zoo
from Fresno, CA
I have a Border Collie Rescue that is older. He has a hip/spine problem and is on chronic pain medication. This can cause constipation. I gave him the herbal laxative and it worked great! I had to back off as it gave him loose stools after 3 consecutive days of dosing. He is going regularly now and I only need to give him the laxative occasionally.
Product did not work for my Cat
By Cathleen
from Oracle AZ
I have only used 1/3 of the bottle at this point however, I am sorry to say that this product has not work for my cat. I know others have had very good luck. I think at this point I will need to take the cat to the vet to further investagate the problem. I will continue to use the product until the product is gone. If anyone has any other suggetions, please let me know.

didn't help..
By Luc
from NY,NY
Sorry, but the product did not bring any results, plus it was difficult to administer because of its taste. I do understand however that it's made of herbs and that's normal, but after seeing my cat with tears in his eyes, I stopped.

It works !
By Daphne's Mom
from San Jose, CA
Our cat,Daphne,32lbs,10yo,had a very bad constipation.She had weekly enema for the past 3 weeks.Because of her size, doctor had to give her 3 enemas per visit.The last time I picked her up, she looked so weak and abused.I don't want her to through any enemas anymore. Long story short, I found Laxa-Herb online. We gave Daphne the drops accordingly, the 4th day, Daphne went. We want to thank you for this wonderful product. Daphne thanks you, too. :)
It works!
By midcoast main(e)iac
from belfast, maine
our older cat has been getting increasingly constipated with age. after a trip to an emergency vet clinic one weekend where they gave him two enemas, we knew we had to get serious about finding preventative measures. nothing we'd been trying seemed to be providing sufficient support. this product plus canned pumpkin added to his wet food seem to be doing the trick. thank you!
This stuff is the[*]...literally.
By Cat Mom
from Minneapolis, MN
I bought the laxaherb product because my 13 year old cat was in dire need of some help defecating. He has constipation issues resulting from his diabetes and gets fiber every morning but still has some trouble in the litter box sometimes. He had a UTI and I think the injection of antibiotics upset his already testy bowel schedule and made him obscenely constipated. I was reluctant to take him to the vet and give him enemas because he usually requires more than one and they make his fur greasy for weeks after-it's very gross when your cat leaves grease stains on furniture, not to mention he is unbearably stinky when he returns home and hates baths with a passion (I have the scars to prove it, and so does one of the vet techs)! Within one day of administering the laxaherb (which was tricky and unpleasant for poor little Billy but ultimately helped in the long run and was the lesser of two evils) he had made quite a disgusting bowel movement on the middle of my living room floor. Even though I was very unimpressed with Billy's behavior in not using the litter box, I was quite impressed with the results of laxaherb. I did not notice any side effects, no nausea or anything, just evil glares from Billy shortly after the force-feedings. I keep it in my fridge for any emergency usage that may come up. Just a quick note-I was also giving Billy pumpkin mixed in his wet food and that could have also helped a bit. Having said that, I would try out pumpkin first and if there is no luck there I think this is a sure-fire remedy.

Text of PUC's Decision on A-Plant at Bodega Bay Decision No. 65437 Before the public utilities commission of the state of California Application No. 43808 In the matter of the application of Pacific Gas and Electric Company for a certificate convenience and necessity to construct, install, operate and maintain Unit No. 1, a nuclear power unit, at its Bodega Bay Atomic Park, (Electric) Pacific Gas and Electric Co. filed the above-entitled application on Oct. 4, 1961, requesting a certificate of public convenience and necessity under Section 1001 of the Public Utilities Code, to construct, (Editor's note: This is the partial text of the PUC's decision on Bodega Bay's atomic-powered plant. Deleted because of space was the section on operating costs.) install, operate, and maintain Unit No. 1, a nuclear power unit, at its Bodega Bay Atomic Park in Sonoma County, together with transmission lines and related facilities. Public Hearing After due notice, public hearing on this application was held before Examiner Leonard S. Patterson in San Francisco on March 7, 8, 9, 1962, and the matter was submitted. At the hearing applicant presented exhibits and testimony in support of its request, a number of individuals testified in support of the application, and a few individuals testified in opposition to the proposal. Following submission, the Commission received a large number of written protests to the proposal and, by order dated April 24, 1962, submission was set aside and the matter was reopened for further hearing. Further hearing was held in San Francisco on May 21 and 22 and June 6, 7 and 8, 1962. At these later hearings testimony was presented by individuals on their own behalf and one behalf of certain organizations in opposition to granting the application. Applicant also presented additional testimony and exhibits in support of its proposal and some additional testimony was presented by parties supporting the application. In all, during the eight days of public hearing, applicant presented 12 exhibits and testimony by five witnesses in support of its request. Testimony in support of applicant's proposal was presented by 13 individuals who presented seven exhibits. Testimony was presented by 17 witnesses in opposition to the proposal and 21 exhibits were presented on their behalf. Four witnesses presented testimony of a factual nature which neither supported nor opposed the granting of the application. The Commission staff took an active part in the hearing through cross-examination, particularly with respect to the nuclear features and safety aspects. The matter was again submitted on June 8, 1962, subject to receipt of certain late-filed exhibits, the last of which was received on July 9, 1962, and the matter is now ready for decision. Proposed Plant Under this application, applicant proposes to construct, operate and maintain Unit No. 1, a nuclear fueled boiling-water reactor electric generating unit upon a 225 acre site in Sonoma County at Bodega Bay, approximately 50 miles north of San Francisco. The plant is to be known as Bodega Bay Atomic Park. The unit will consist of one tandem compound, 1800 rpm turbine generator with a name-plate rating of 325,000 kw, and one nuclear-fuelled boiling water reactor having a capability of 4,150,000 pounds of saturated steam per hour at a throttle pressure of 1,035 pounds per square inch absolute. The unit will be complete with turbine and reactor auxiliaries and related steam-plant equipment, including the necessary high-voltage transformer and switching equipment. Additional facilities on the site will consist of a service building including shops and warehouse, a waste treatment facility, a barge dock, circulating water facilities, and a switchyard. In order to connect the generating unit to the interconnected electric system, applicant proposes to install and place in operation approximately 32 miles of double-circuit 220 kv steel tower transmission line, extending from the switchyard at the new plant to applicant's Ingacio Substation where terminal substation facilities will be required. The record discloses that the plant will be located at Campbell Cove on the harbor side of Bodega Head, just insid the rock jetty at the mouth of the harbor. Cooling water will be taken from the entrance channel to the harbor and will be discharged into the Pacific Ocean through a tunnel extending to the seaward side of Bodega Head. The electric energy would be transmitted from the plant over a 220 kv steel town transmission line crossing over the entrance to the harbor and extending the length of Doran Park to the main coast line. At the time of the hearing, applicant owned 160 acres of the proposed site and was in the process of acquiring 64 additional acres by condemnation proceeding. Although applicant is seeking a certificate at this time for only one unit, the record shows that applicant considers the site to be suitable for a total of four units. The access road to the plant will be located along the western shore of Bodega Harbor and for the most part will be constructed on tidelands using material to be removed in excavations for the plant facilities at Campbell Cove. A witness for applicant testified that one of the primary reasons for selecting the Bodega Bay site is the requirement for serving the load in the North Bay area. He testified as to other prospective sites which were considered but which were rejected as they did not offer the desirable features for a power plant to the same degree as Bodega Bay. Some of the desirable features which he enumerated as existing at the proposed site are good physical characteristics for a circulating water system, excellent dispersion of the warm water discharge, a solid granitic type of rock providing an excellent foundation, isolation from population centers, and a harbor making possible water transportation of the extremely heavy plant components during construction, and for shipping the heavily shielded fueled elements for reprocessing. Nuclear Reactor A witness for applicant testified that applicant's nuclear program has been concentrated mainly in developing the boiling-water type of reactor and that the selection of a 325-megawatt unit of that type is a logical further stem resulting from the experience applicant has gained at the Vallecitos atomic power plant in Alameda County and at its Humboldt Bay plant at Eureka where a nuclear unit is now under construction. The record shows that the nuclear reactor will be housed in a reactor vessel weighing 386 tons to be placed entirely below ground inside a dry-well shell. It will be a single-cycle boiling-water type in which all of the steam is to be produced in the reactor facility at a single pressure. The core will be fueled with 156,000 pounds of uranium dioxide initially enriched to about two percent in uranium U-235. At 90 percent capacity factor operation, the fuel will remain in the reactor an average of about 3 ½ years. Twenty per cent of the core will be refueled at a time. Control of the power level will be maintained by control rods extending through the reactor vessel into the dry-well shell. Safety Measures Considerable testimony was presented by applicant as to the safety measures incorporated into the design of the plant and in the planned operation so as to minimized potential atomic hazards. A witness for applicant testified that this will not be an experimental plant as it will consist of components which have been pre-tested in other units. According to his testimony, for protection against release of radioactive elements in the event of an accident, the same pressure suppression containment method will be used as approved by the Atomic Energy Commission for the Humboldt Bay unit. He characterized the reactor as being inherently safe in that the reactor would tend to shut itself down in the event of a potentially dangerous increase in its power level an increase in the amount of steam in the core, or an increase in fuel temperature. He further testified that a reactor scram procedure would be employed to automatically shut down the reactor promptly in the event of any one of ten conditions that might lead to difficulties or damage in operation of the plant. High-level radioactive wastes, along with the spent fuel elements, will be shipped in shielded casks to an Atomic Energy Commission processing plant for disposal. He testified that low-level wastes will be produced in solid, liquid, and gaseous forms. The solid wastes will be accumulated in underground tanks or vaults for ultimate off-site disposal by an Atomic Energy Commission licensed contractor. The liquid waste, after treatment, may be returned to the plant cycle or disposed of, along with the condenser cooling water, by discharge into the ocean. The evidence reveals that any liquid wastes discharged into the ocean will be held to radioactive levels considered safe for drinking water as established by the Atomic Energy Commission in Title 10 of Federal Regulations Part 20. Testimony was presented on behalf of applicant by a consulting marine biologist that he did not anticipate any adverse biological effects from the discharge waters to be released into the ocean. He testified that the yearly discharge of radiation to the ocean from the plant operation would be about 50 curies. Gaseous wastes to be discharged into the stack under controlled conditions will be monitored continuously to assure that standards established by the Atomic Energy Commission will not be exceeded. According to the record, applicant plans to conduct a pre-operational monitoring survey of Bodega Bay and its environs at least one full year in advance of operation of the reactor. The purpose of this program would be to obtain information concerning naturally occurring radioactivity in the vicinity of the site to aide in determining the effectiveness of

Researchers report the discovery of a chemical that can encourage the formation of new neurons, at least in mice. Writing this week in the journal Cell, researchers describe work in which they identified the compound, named P7C3, through a mass screening approach. The P7C3 compound was found to encourage neurons to grow within a portion of the brain called the dentate gyrus, in mutant lab mice that typically have trouble forming new neurons.
The researchers hope that the find might point them in new directions for Alzheimer's research. Steven McKnight, one of the authors of the report, called the discovery "blind luck." We'll talk to him about the find and where the research may be headed.

Read the implementation plan on administration-wide action (PDF) (21 pp, 850K).
Everyone in America deserves to live, learn, and work in a healthy and sustainable community.
EPA seeks to facilitate the active involvement of all federal agencies in ensuring healthy, sustainable and green communities, as well as equitable development, for all people. To better achieve this goal, EPA is leading the Administration's effort to fully implement Executive Order 12898 (PDF) (6 pp, 122K).
Executive Order 12898 calls for the establishment of an Interagency Working Group on Environmental Justice (EJ IWG). The IWG is chaired by the EPA Administrator. EPA worked with the White House Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) to reconvene the EJ IWG in September 2010.
EPA is working with other federal agencies to advance environmental justice through coordinated efforts. A coordinated and holistic approach is essential to addressing the full scope of adverse human health and environmental effects in overburdened communities, legacy pollution problems, and cumulative impacts. A coordinated approach can ensure that all communities participate and benefit in the transition to a clean energy economy.
Coordinated efforts include:
- Partnership for Sustainable Communities - This is an unprecedented agreement by EPA, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, and the U.S. Department of Transportation. The agreement coordinates federal housing, transportation, and environmental investments; protects public health and the environment; promotes equitable development; and helps address the challenges of climate change.
- National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) - All federal agencies must consider environmental justice issues in their environmental impact assessments
- Title VI of the Civil Rights Act - This act prohibits recipients of federal financial assistance from discriminating on the basis of race, color, or national origin in their programs or activities.
- Assist other federal agencies with integrating environmental justice into their missions, programs, policies, and activities.
- Work with other federal agencies to strengthen use of interagency legal tools, i.e., NEPA and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
- Foster healthy and sustainable communities, with an emphasis on equitable development and place-based initiatives.
- Strengthen community access to federal agencies.

Using the mulitphoton micrsocopy imaging technique, senile plaques of Alzheimer's disease can be detected in the brains of living transgenic mice, and characterized with chronic imaging.
This detection platform was used to characterize a therapeutic approach to clearing the senile plaques based on immunotherapy, as well as to characterize novel amyloid-targeting ligands in preclinical development for PET imaging in humans.
Current research is aimed at optimizing anti-amyloid- therapeutic approaches, and imaging the anatomy and physiology of specific cell types in the brain before and after treatment. Development of novel optical techniques is ongoing, and includes methods to measure protein-protein interactions using fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM), and non-invasive approaches to amyloid imaging in intact animals.

Web merchants should pay close attention to a pair of court battles underway in Texas over shopping cart patents.
Interested parties in online retailing—and you should be one of them—are keeping a close eye on a pair of patent infringement cases underway in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas.
The battles aren't about any minor patent infringement of e-commerce technology. Rather, the final outcome of two court cases—Case 6:07-cv-00511-LED and Case 6:09-cv-00274-LED—may decide who can enforce their patent rights to an indispensable piece of e-commerce technology: the shopping cart. At stake is whether several big online retailers may be forced to fork out millions of dollars in licensing fees and court costs and even risk losing their shopping cart altogether.
The two court cases aren't new, but the action is certainly heating up. After winning a $40 million settlement from Amazon.com in 2005, Chicago-based Soverain Software LLC, which sells transaction management technology, filed suit against Newegg Inc. and other big web merchants in November 2007. At the time Soverain Software accused Newegg, CDW Corp., Systemax Inc., Redcats USA and Zappos.com of infringing on three of its patents that cover the underlying technology that e-retailers use to handle purchases and payments, as well as for their online shopping carts. Many retailers settled, but Newegg chose to fight in court. In May, a jury found that Newegg must pay $2.5 million in damages to Soverain Software for infringing on its e-retailing technology patents.
But the final outcome—and the impact on other web merchants—are very much ongoing.
In June 2009 Soverain also filed a similar suit against a slew of the big web retailers. Among them: J.C. Penney Co. Inc., Amway Corp., Bidz.com Inc., Etronics Inc., HSN Inc., QVC Inc., Shutterfly Inc., Victoria's Secret Direct, Vistaprint Ltd. and others.
After spending about $1 million in legal fees, several retailers have chosen to settle out of court with Soverain Software for amounts of at least $2.5 million, several sources have told me. The cases are so sensitive that most web retailers won't talk on the record about the litigation. Soverian Software says the company can't comment on the litigation—and why they are aggressively suing so many online retailers—until the lawsuits are resolved.
But both cases are heating up—and the Newegg case could have a direct impact on the outcome on the second patent infringement suit and similar litigation down the road. After a jury found in late April that Newegg was in "indirect violation" of Soverain Software's patents, both parties have since filed a steady stream of motions for hearings and other documents in the courtroom of federal judge Leonard Davis. And the judge could rule in as soon as a few weeks on the core issue of any "direct" violation. What that means is that the judge could rule fairly quickly during a post trial hearing who wins and who doesn't—at least until the appeals process.
If the judge rules in favor of Soverain Software, Newegg may be forced to pay a substantial sum in patent infringement fees or even find or develop a new shopping card. Here's what Newegg, which generated web sales of $2.3 billion in 2009, had to say in a March regulatory finding with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission about the patent fight with Soverain Software: "If an injunction is granted, it could force the company to stop or alter certain aspects of its business activities, such as aspects of its shopping cart and session identification functionalities, and there is no guarantee that suitable non-infringing alternatives could be developed or obtained at a commercially reasonable cost. Similarly, an award or damages could be substantial, and if any royalties are awarded." The findings in the Newegg case could also have a direct impact on the second case—the patent infringement suit against J.C. Penney and others—and any future litigation.
"This is a huge deal for every retailer to watch," says the president of an online retailing site doing more than $1 billion in annual sales, who asked not to be identified. "If you are found to be in violation of their patent, in the end you may not have a shopping cart or you'll be forced to pay substantial fees to purchase a software license for perpetuity or scramble to get a new shopping cart without incurring any major disruption. Nobody wants big problems with something as fundamentally important as their shopping cart."
Soverain Software owns about 50 patents. The patents it holds for shopping cart technology—and for web-based payment technology, a URL-based system for session identification and management, and hypertext statements—were originally awarded almost 16 years ago to Open Market, a now-defunct e-commerce software development company. Another company, Saratoga Partners, a New York-based private equity firm, later acquired the patents and formed Soverain Software.
Soverain Software doesn't seem to be doing much business with online retailers as a seller of e-commerce applications. On its web site Soverain Software lists its main clients as publishing and media companies, including Reuters, Bureau of National Affairs, The McGraw-Hill Companies, Seceti S.p.A., Telecom Italia Mobile, NTT, Disney, and NBC Television.
But big web retailers are certainly doing a lot of court-related business with Soverain Software. These days patent infringement suits are becoming almost a part of doing business as an online retailer—and the court fights are extracting a toll. "Lawsuits like the ones that have been filed against Newegg and other Internet retailers extract a significant cost on us and on our customers—monies that largely go to pay lawyers" says Newegg.com general counsel Lee Cheng. "The only guaranteed beneficiaries of these suits are plaintiffs' and defense counsel. This is money that could be used to create jobs, grow companies and to invest in research and development."
The main reason web retailers should watch the outcome of this pair of patent infringement suits and the multiple similar cases is the high stakes and fundamental application that's involved: the shopping cart. So a word to the wise: keep an eye out for future developments.
As one patent attorney told me: "The same judge in the same court that's presiding over the Newegg case is also overseeing the second case. There are a lot of reasons web retailers should be caring about this shopping cart patent infringement issue because it won't be going away any time soon."

NY Rangers @
Philadelphia Flyers
7:00 p.m.
Wells Fargo Center
Rangers Record: 6-4-1
Flyers Record: 7-4-1
Tonight, Nov. 4, the Rangers travel to Philadelphia to take
on the Flyers. The Rangers, who have won their last two games, look to continue
their hot streak with a win over a division rival. The Flyers, riding a
four-game win streak, will try to keep their momentum going as well. For
Rangers fans, the memory of last season's shootout loss to the Flyers, deciding
the final playoff spot, still stings, and it will be interesting to see how
these two teams react in their first meeting since that decisive game.
The Rangers are enjoying a seven-game point-scoring streak
from alternate captain Ryan Callahan, as well as great play from his linemates,
Brandon Dubinsky and Artem Anisimov. Dubinsky has seven points over his last
six games, including two goals in the Rangers' most recent game, against
Chicago. Anisimov has four points in the last three games, also recording a
multi-point effort in the last game with two assists. This line has been
serving as the Rangers' number one while Marian Gaborik, Chris Drury and Vinny
Prospal are all sidelined with injuries.
The Flyers have been on an incredibly hot streak lately, led
by captain Mike Richards, who is riding a four-game point-scoring streak. Young
Claude Giroux is also enjoying a four-game point streak, including four goals
and seven points over that period. The Flyers will be hampered however, by
injuries to veteran defenseman Andrej Meszaros and forward Andres Nodl, both of
whom are listed as day-to-day, and goalie Michael Leighton, who is recovering
from surgery. Additionally, Flyers' center Danny Briere will not be playing as
he serves the second day of his three-game suspension, assessed for a hit to the
head of the Islanders' Frans Nielsen last Saturday.
The goalie matchup sets the Rangers' Henrik Lundqvist
(5-3-1) against Flyers rookie Sergei Bobrovsky, who has been starting in
Leighton's absence.
The puck drops at 7, and pre-game ceremonies will include
Flyers' broadcaster and former player Bill Clement pledging his citizenship to the United
States. It should be an exciting and passion-filled game, so be sure to watch!
