Every time I log into Facebook, or search for flights online, I am taking advantage of cloud computing. However, neither of these examples would be considered SaaS. According to Gartner, cloud computing is not just a buzzword; it does have a distinct meaning separate from SaaS.
Recently, I've noticed that a lot of vendors have started talking about "cloud computing" in their marketing materials. In many cases they're referring to solutions that were previously called Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), which begs the question – what is the difference between these two terms, anyway? Is "cloud computing" simply a new industry buzzword with no real meaning? Or is there actually a difference between the two?
Fortunately, the analysts at Gartner helped to answer my question with a recent report that clearly addressed just this issue. According to them, cloud computing is not just a buzzword; it does have a distinct meaning separate from SaaS.
The way I understand it, "cloud computing" refers to the bigger picture…basically the broad concept of using the internet to allow people to access technology-enabled services. According to Gartner, those services must be "massively scalable" to qualify as true "cloud computing". So according to that definition, every time I log into Facebook, or search for flights online, I am taking advantage of cloud computing. However, neither of these examples would be considered SaaS.
While most (but not all) Software-as-a-Service solutions fall under the larger cloud computing definition as "massively scalable", they also have a number of other defining factors. First, SaaS is software that's "owned, delivered, and managed remotely by one or more providers." It also "allows a sharing of application processing and storage resources in a one-to-many environment…on a pay-for-use basis, or as a subscription."
So, with all that said, I can clearly state that Fortiva is a SaaS solution using cloud computing…but does it really matter? At the end of the day it comes down to how well the solution meets the needs of the user, both from a feature-functionality, as well as from a total cost of ownership perspective. Whatever you want to call it, the benefits of SaaS solutions go well beyond the buzzwords that may be used to describe them. Understanding that is much more important than getting caught up in the terms marketers use to try to get customers' attention.

One addition to your article would be a brief discussion of Platform as a Service (PaaS). This is a technology stack that lives between the Cloud infrastructure & the software as a service application. Every software application must have an environment that runs that software. The environment is made up of web servers, application servers, database servers, search servers, etc. All of this needs to be wrappered together with managed services like application level monitoring, backups and continuous improvement. This is the PaaS layer.

Cloud computing serves *developers & companies* who develop software and services. SaaS serves *end users* who use software.

There sure is a lot of confusion when it comes to talking about cloud computing. Yet, it does not need to be so complicated. There really are only three types of services that are cloud based: SaaS, PaaS, and Cloud Computing Platforms. I am not sure being massively scalable is a requirement to fit into any one category. We recently published a blog post on this subject with the purpose of simplifying the discussion via images and cutting through the confusion.

Mobile messaging has been a popular communication channel for more than 20 years. Finnish engineer Matti Makkonen invented the idea for SMS (Short Message Service) in 1984, making his vision a reality on December 3, 1992 by sending the first message ("Happy Christmas") from a PC to a cell phone. Since then, the technology has evolved immensely, from both a technology standpoint, and in our everyday uses for it.

Jim Meskauskas | January 16, 2001 | Comments
Yes, click-through rates have been declining, but they've stabilized over the last 18 months. The industry is maturing, and the first metric to demonstrate this stability is the click-through rate.
Enough already! It seems everywhere you turn there is some newspaper article, magazine article, or short television news story about the demise of Internet businesses.
Stocks are still being pummeled, a new round of layoffs is announced every day, and the doors of former darlings of the new economy are closing. It is sometimes with morbid glee that journalists sneer at the latest news on who's suffering and who isn't.
But this current "thrill killing" has a lot of antecedents from within the industry itself. Most notably, over the years, it has been the declaration of death of the banner as an ad unit and the ever-declining click-through rate.
As ubiquitous as dot-com tales from the dark side are, so, too, were reports of click-through rates experiencing dizzying falls from grace, signaling the end of the ever-present banner. Average click-through rates used to be something like five percent back in 1997. Then it was two percent. Then it was one percent.
At one point you could find an article every couple of weeks or two covering the demise of the banner as reflected in the dropping click-through rates we're experiencing.
But no one has stopped to question these "obituaries" for online advertising or, at the very least, put them in perspective.
Yes, it's true, click-through rates are declining. I'm going to venture a guess and say that click-through rates, on average, have been declining since the very beginning. I'm betting that the very first CTR was 100 percent and has been on a downward spiral ever since.
At the first formal Society for Internet Advancement in San Francisco panel event in 1998, Ellen Comley, then at Andersen & Lembke (which is now McCann) was asked about declining CTRs. She chalked it up to an adoption curve. Over time, more people start to do something new. This creates the conditions for more people who HAVE done that "something" already and are thus less inclined to do it again, until you end up with what appears to be declining engagement. Basically, banners used to be exotic and "neat-o"; now they are banal and de rigueur.
Presently, the industry average click-through rate is about 0.5 percent (as reported in the AdKnowledge Online Advertising Report 1st Quarter 2000). What's interesting is that this has been the average click-through rate for quite some time now. I think that for about 18 months, this has been the average CTR bandied about at conferences and quoted in reports and news articles. When I see the results in from the first month of a new campaign my agency has been running, something close to a 0.5 percent click-through rate is about right. And this has been consistent for at least a year. It is my belief that click-through rates are no longer declining.
In fact, CTRs are finally more in line with what is seen in the direct-response offline world. One-half of one percent is about what an advertiser can expect from a direct mail effort. Now that the web population is more reflective of the world at large, the kinds of things people do online and the regularity with which they do them will also mimic the offline world.
When we talk about CTRs, we are talking about response rates, which casts the online advertising effort in the direct-response light. Lo and behold! As a direct-response vehicle, response rates on the web have parity with response rates in other media. And it appears these response rates are holding.
I think we are witnessing another sign that this industry is maturing: atrophy, consolidation, and stability showing in selected metrics. And the first metric to demonstrate this stability is the click-through rate.
As the CTR's decline has slowed to a near stop, let's hope it is a small sign that the same will be true for the rest of the industry.

Brazil's Straw Hat project helps women leave abusive situations
Has Russia saved the Assad regime from collapse?
09 Jul 2011 01:41 GMT | Human Rights, US & Canada, United States
Betty Ford, the wife of Gerald Ford, the late US president, has died at age 93.
Ford was known for her battles with addiction which led to the founding of a famed drug and alcohol rehabilitation clinic bearing her name.
The clinic remains one of the most well-respected places in the US for the treatment of alcohol and drug abuse
"I was deeply saddened this afternoon when I heard of Betty Ford's death," former first lady Nancy Reagan said in a statement on Friday confirming Ford's death.
Ford also promoted awareness and research on breast cancer, through the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation eventually naming an award in her honor.
She won numerous honors and awards, including a Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1991 and the Congressional Gold Medal in 1998.
'Fighting first lady'
Ford once was dubbed the "fighting first lady" by Time magazine because of her outspoken political views, which often differed from those of her husband's Republican Party.
She strongly supported women's rights while she was in the White House, working the phones in a vain attempt to get states to pass the Equal Rights Amendment, which sought to give women and men equality under law.
Her candour was surprising for the time. She took a tolerant stance on abortion and admitted without shame that some of her children had tried marijuana. Nor was she alarmed by the prospect of her daughter having premarital sex.
Ford also was an early campaigner against breast cancer. She underwent a mastectomy in 1974, less than two months after her husband succeeded the disgraced Richard Nixon as president.
Her frank discussions about her disease helped raise awareness about breast cancer and she eventually took the same approach toward her alcoholism, which she battled even as first lady.
Her problems with chemical dependency may have begun in 1964, when doctors prescribed her painkillers for a pinched nerve. She developed an addiction to prescription drugs and also became dependent on alcohol during the 1960s.
The Betty Ford Center in California came into being after Ford herself was treated for her addictions at the US Naval Hospital at Long Beach, and saw the need for treatment that emphasized the special needs of women.

Well boys, it could be time to dust off all of those 35-year-old copies of Playboy Magazine that your daddy has stuffed in grocery sacks underneath his mattress. No, that's not Buckwheat in a leg lock that you are looking at on page fifty-eight, that's a 1970′s bush, and it just might be making a comeback.
It's going to happen, probably more than once or twice in your life. You'll be out with your buddies, on the town, cruising the bars, knocking back beers and shots of tequila and whiskey. Or perhaps someone will challenge your drinking prowess, and you defend your honor with a booze-guzzling contest. Whatever the reasons may be, you've overdone it, and you wake up in the morning with a raging hangover.
You know what I'm talking about. That angry, "I could totally knock your head off your shoulders!" sex that reminds you you're alive and your partner is, too, and life is grand. I mean, seriously pissed off, ready to knock each other's teeth out, can't stop swearing at each other...and then suddenly you're kissing sex. One of you's against the wall, you're both pushing each other away, but your bodies just keep slamming back together sex.
There are numerous tips and tricks out there regarding hiccups and how to get rid of them. Most of us have probably tried all of them with the majority having little to no affect. You no longer have to waste time holding your breath, drinking water backwards, standing on your head while drinking through a straw or any other ridiculous myth that will make you fall or pass out. Now, all you need to do to cure those annoying little spasms is suck on a lollipop.
According to a new study, drinking beer can actually help your creative and problem solving skills. All those drunken ideas don't seem so stupid now, do they?
As someone who loves coffee, and would set up permanent residence at coffee shop if it were socially acceptable, it's nice to see that drinking tons of coffee may not be completely in vain.

Spring is here, and Summer is fast approaching which means it's time to get out of the gym, and into the great outdoors. Staying fit, and getting exercise can also be fun, and this local trail is a great way to do so.

All citizens of the United States have the right to feel secure in knowing that their home and personal belongings are not subject to unreasonable searches and seizures.
Protection for the people
The Fourth Amendment states, "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized. " The Fourth Amendment is there to protect the people from searches that are unjust and unreasonable.
When is a search unreasonable?
Unless a warrant is provided, a search is considered unreasonable if it violates a person's privacy. Things considered private can include a residence, vehicle, private property, or clothing. There are often times when obtaining search warrants are not needed in order to conduct a search. These loopholes regularly exercised by law enforcement can include:
• Verbal permission is given to do a search by the person who the property or possessions
• Illegal or dangerous items can be seen easily without having to search the property
• There is reason to believe that an immediate threat to another's well-being is at stake
• Enough probable cause is noted to conduct a search
Common incidents of illegal searches
Whether it's working on a hunch or trying to meeting quota, there are officers out there who are merely hoping to find a reason to make an arrest. Unfortunately, many citizens see police as someone of superior authority who outranks the common civilian and they tend to not speak up when their belongings are gone through without a valid reason. A few incidents where these unreasonable searches and seizures are more likely to take place are:
• Searching the trunks and vehicles during routine traffic stops
• Going outside the permitted areas of a search warrant
• Entering an unlocked home, garage or vehicle
• Pat downs of random law abiding pedestrians
Questionable Violation of Fourth Amendment rights
Occasionally citizens may believe that they have been a victim of unreasonable searches and seizures, when the judge may not agree with their assessment. A hit in run case involving a young woman named Chelse Marie Brierley of Layton Utah was almost dismissed when it appeared that her Fourth Amendment rights had been violated. Following the hit and run, police were able to track Brierley down to her residence and while at her home they entered uninvited through the front door that was left open by the Brierley's housekeeper. Although they were not invited to enter the residence, during the time that they were in the house nothing was searched. However because these officers entered the home unlawfully, Brierley assumed she was a victim of unreasonable searches and seizures. It was determined last week that none of the evidence in her case was obtained while officers were in her home so the charges against her for the hit and run were not dismissed.
Charges and evidence acquired during unreasonable searches and seizures
Not all cases fighting unreasonable searches and seizures turn out to be naught. If there is any indication that the charged person is in fact a victim of a Fourth Amendment violation, it is imperative to speak to counsel before getting any admittance of guilt on record. It is possible that the charges could be dropped entirely. If a judge rules that the charged person was a victim of unreasonable searches and seizures, then all evidence for the case that was derived because of that illegal search is invalid and will not be submitted in court. Not only is the evidence directly obtained during the search no longer submissible, but any information or items obtained because of the knowledge obtained during the illegal search and seizure is also unusable to the prosecution. In other words, if the source of the info is tainted, then so is everything that came because of it. If you are concerned that your Fourth Amendment rights have been violated, contact a criminal defense attorney immediately before moving forward with your case.

Arizona Cardinals
Arizona Cardinals ranked 11th in Pro Football Talk's preseason power rankings
People love football.
People also love lists.
So in order to fill the void of actual football on the calendar from February to September, there are a lot of football-related lists published online.
ProFootballTalk.com is rolling out their preseason power rankings one team at a time, and finally, we've got an appearance by the Arizona Cardinals.
The Cardinals check in just outside the top ten, coming in at No. 11.
The Arizona Cardinals finished the 2013 season as one of the hottest teams in the league. The Cardinals finished 7-2 over the final nine games with their only two losses coming by a field goal to a pair of playoff teams in Philadelphia and San Francisco. In addition, Arizona is the only team in two seasons to defeat the Seattle Seahawks at home with a 17-10 win in Week 16.
It's not all sunshine for the Cardinals, as we know locally. PFT also points out the humongous losses in the linebacking corps caused by Karlos Dansby's free agent exodus to Cleveland and Daryl Washington's year-long drug suspension.
But overall, they're pretty optimistic.
The Arizona Cardinals should be legitimate contenders for a playoff spot this season if they can recapture the momentum they finished with in 2013. The Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers will enter the season as the favorites to win the division, but the Cardinals aren't far behind.
The Cardinals will report to training camp in Glendale July 25 and open their preseason schedule against the Houston Texans Saturday, Aug. 9 at University of Phoenix Stadium.

Susan Anspach
Jump to
An attractive blonde, Susan Anspach began her career on stage in the groundbreaking musical "Hair". After a couple of other plays, she segued to features with a supporting role as Beau Bridges' sister in Hal Ashby's "The Landlord" (1970). Later that year, she earned notice for a steamy scene with Jack Nicholson in "Five Easy Pieces". Her subsequent feature appearances have been sporadic. Anspach hit her peak as the leading lady in Paul Mazursky's "Blume in Love" (1973) and was superb in Dusan Makavayev's disturbing, hilarious "Montenegro" (1981). The actress ventured into TV with such efforts as "I Want to Keep My Baby" (CBS, 1976) and the miniseries "James A. Michener's 'Space'" (CBS, 1985). She twice tried series work but both times the vehicle failed to catch on with the public: the primetime soap "The Yellow Rose" (NBC, 1983-84) and the dramedy "The 'Slap' Maxwell Story" (ABC, 1987-88). As she entered into middle age, good roles became fewer and she channeled her creative energies to teaching.
More recently, Anspach was in the news because of an ongoing dispute with actor Jack Nicholson. The two purportedly engaged in an off-screen romance and Anspach has maintained that her son Caleb was fathered by Nicholson, a claim which the actor reportedly acknowledged privately. It was when the matter became public thanks in part to a letter Anspach wrote to VANITY FAIR magazine in 1994 responding to a profile of Nicholson. Shortly thereafter, she claimed that the actor, who had loaned her money, demanded repayment. Her response was to take legal action. The case eventually was settled with Anspach retaining her home.

The Latest On: Public Lands
What War On Coal?
In his State of the Union address, President Obama said some stirring things about climate change. Most dramatically, he urged Congress to take action and then said:
But if Congress won't act soon to protect future generations, I will.
Oil Derricks Won't Be Spoiling The Parks' View
Thanks to a recent federal court decision, visitors to Utah's public wild lands can continue to raft the Green River in Dinosaur National Monument without seeing oil derricks around the river's bends.
They can continue to enjoy the outlook from Canyonlands National Park's Grand View Point without drill rigs littering the landscape.
And they won't be forced to see the formations at Arches National Park as gateways to increased carbon emissions and environmental disruption.
Bison Return to Ancestral Lands
The Top 10 unEarthed Stories of 2012
Blog posts about Earth's magnificent places and creatures were the most popular themes for unEarthed readers in 2012. By far the most-read post concerned Arctic drilling, followed by reports of bison being restored and wolves losing protection. Not shown in our top 10 blog posts, below, are the delightful tales of curious critters painted in words by our own Shirley Hao. Posts written years ago by Shirley are still being discovered and read by thousands of people every year.
Strong Start To Protecting Key Alaska Habitat
Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar recently announced a final plan for managing the National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska, a vast and wild area in northwestern Alaska that provides vital habitat for caribou, countless shorebirds, waterfowl, bears, wolves and wolverines, among others.
Fracking's Dirty Air Secret
Last week, supporters of the controversial drilling practice know as fracking held a rally in Denver. According to media reports, one booster drew laughs from the crowd when he said that fracking's economic benefits would eventually "trickle down to attorneys [and] doctors."
Colorado doctors are probably already seeing increased business because of fracking, but not in a humorous way.
Voters Tell Obama: Get To Work On Clean Energy Future
The American people have reinvested their faith in a President who now has a second chance to put this nation on course to a prosperous future built on clean energy and with a far-reaching goal of ending mankind's role in climate change.
In the wake of superstorm Sandy, voters saw—and many continue to experience—the impacts of climate change-induced weather. They are convinced and, like us, demand that President Obama take action to steer us away from the fossil fuels that feed climate change. This is the real path to energy independence.
Lies, Damned Lies And Coal Company Biologists
Coal companies have been blasting mountains, dumping waste rock into streams, and undermining private and public lands for more than a century. It's apparently lucrative to do so.
But a recent filing by a coal company shows just how far they have drunk their own Kool-Aid (or coal ash?) in justifying the damage mining can cause.
The filing concerned Earthjustice's efforts to protect the Sunset Roadless Area on the GMUG National Forest in western Colorado. The Sunset area is a landscape of pine, fir, and aspen stands, dotted with wet meadows and beaver ponds.
House Passes Pro-Coal War On Health Bill
It's been a long two years with the 112th Congress. In that time, House leadership has often tried to "help the economy" by wiping away our basic public health and environmental protections—in the process putting thousands of Americans at risk of disease and death from exposure to toxic chemicals and carcinogens in our air and water.

Looking to make money online in India? Let me tell you how I got started with making money online. Over the course of the next few "How To Earn Money Online In India" series, I will be sharing some ways which worked for me and some which did not.
You can use these strategies to figure out the best ways to get started and choose the work from home opportunity which works for you the best.
Earn Money online in India without Investment
This is what I wanted when I got started off first. I had little to no money for venturing out into the making money gambit. Circumstances forced me to stay at home and I needed to find a source of income quick. That's when I started off with my research on free ways to make money online.
I cam across an article which spoke about the concept called affiliate marketing. Affiliate marketing in simple terms means promoting other people's products. In exchange for a sale, the product owner will give you a commission or some money.
Today I made $100 in sales using this strategy. I used to use free blogs to write articles and promote my affiliate products. I made very few sales but was hopeful. Then I found this money making product (it is a paid one). I used it and my sales tripled. I did not use this strategy to its full potential and still I am getting results for work I did in Sept 2010.
Earn Money Online in India by Survey
You can also make money by taking part in surveys. How this works is companies want people to provide feedback on their products. It might be a new product they are launching or a new service. They are looking for people who identify or fit their customers profile and are willing to spend some time to answer a few questions.
Since these questions can make or break their business, they are willing to pay some money in exchange. There are many survey sites which you can register at. Make sure you use a separate email than your primary email address. Some of these survey companies (might) sell your email address and/or send a lot of promotional offers.
Earn Money Online in India for Students
I wish someone had let me know of these methods when I was a student. Strapped for cash or need extra cash – no worries. Just start
up a blog or website related to your field of interest also known as a niche.
Write a few articles on keywords people are looking for. Publish these articles and create backlinks to them. Promote using twitter and social media and use Google Analytics to track your activities.
While this sounds simple, it does require a lot of thought and time. Stay tuned to the next article which will be picking up a topic one at a time and defining a strategy to take it off ground.
Students can also offer services like content writing, seo article writing, seo services, data entry.
These pay enough and more money to pay of bills.
P.S. It would be a great help if you could leave a comment below with what exactly you are looking for. Hopefully I can outline a strategy which you can use.

By Dwight Garner
Published: June 6, 2004
''CONTRARY to sentimental belief,'' the novelist Julian Barnes writes in his book ''A Pedant in the Kitchen,'' ''most people don't have a novel inside them; nor do most chefs have a cookbook.'' Barnes is ranting here about celebrity chefs, but he might as well be talking about cookbook writers in general. Thoughtful, cohesive, iconoclastic cookbooks have always been rarities -- never more so than now.
There are a lot of strong cookbooks being published this season, but only one seems to me to have the chance of becoming a modern classic -- the kind of book people return to and cite for decades. THE WHOLE BEAST: Nose to Tail Eating (Ecco, paper, $19.95), by the English chef Fergus Henderson, is a terrifically dour, Edward Gorey-ish guide to cooking with offal: everything from pig's trotters and lamb's kidneys to brains, tripe, spleen, heart and tongue. First published in Britain in 1999, the book has become, as Anthony Bourdain writes in his introduction, a ''cult masterpiece, an obscure object of desire.'' This isn't a book you'll wish to cook from every night. And you may or may not want to inform your guests that, when you're serving them Henderson's recipe for soft roes on toast, you're in fact dishing up herring semen. But his book is one you want to climb into and luxuriate in awhile.
Henderson is a genially morose host; he introduces a hash recipe by observing that it's nice to prepare ''if you are feeling a little dented.'' One evening in late winter, my wife (a far better cook than I am) and I made Henderson's crispy pig's tails, and we got a ghoulish thrill from his instruction to deal with ''any slightly hairy extremities'' by using a throwaway Bic razor. The pig's tails are delicious, by the way -- the tailbone is threaded with flavorful meat that you pick away with your teeth. But don't put off tossing the uneaten portion, as we did. Trust me: congealed pig's tails aren't something you want to confront in a pan at 8 a.m. on a Sunday.
Henderson's is a book you'll want to own. Here are 14 others that you may want to buy, depending on your tastes and inclinations:
BOY GETS GRILL: 125 Reasons to Light Your Fire! (Scribner, $30), by Bobby Flay with Julia Moskin. Flay is, of course, the boyish, omnipresent, easy-to-mock host of a Food Network show called ''Boy Meets Grill.'' In Manhattan, he's better known as the chef and co-owner of two popular restaurants, Mesa Grill and Bolo. In his new book, Flay once again demonstrates his slightly demented genius for concocting dishes that light up your mouth like a Caribbean pinball machine. His jerk-rubbed swordfish with habanero-mint glaze won't appeal to purists -- or people who actually like to taste their swordfish. But damn, it's tasty. This is one of those dishes I can imagine people sneering at while they're licking the cutlery and begging for third helpings. ''Boy Gets Grill'' is thick with black-and-white photos of Flay shopping and grilling and stuffing his face with food. In the process, it inadvertently demonstrates one of the perils of being a TV food guy. In the book's last photo, Flay looks exhausted, angry and fed up with being followed around. He looks, in fact, a lot like Sean Penn just before Penn lost it and jerk-rubbed that paparazzo's head.
THE PROVENCE COOKBOOK: 175 Recipes and a Select Guide to the Markets, Shops & Restaurants of France's Sunny South (HarperCollins, $29.95), by Patricia Wells. The distinguished author of five previous French cookbooks, Wells would very likely scream and call in a helicopter water-strike if someone dumped a slab of jerk-rubbed and habanero-minted anything on her plate. She has long been an advocate of simple and seasonal cooking, and she is, if anything, paring her dishes down even more. ''Over the years,'' she writes here, ''my food has become simpler and simpler.'' My wife's father, a retired chef in the Napa Valley, was visiting us when ''The Provence Cookbook'' arrived. He hates recipes, but he sat down with Wells's book, fell in love with it and then used it to improvise the best meal I've eaten this year: grilled squab, a dreamy cauliflower gratin in which the cauliflower is pureed so that it's like eating, as Wells puts it, ''velvety, pure white pillows,'' and homemade cheese that you can finish in an afternoon. The only misfire was the recipe my wife and I made, a Beaumes-de-Venise sorbet. Frozen, this lovely dessert wine seemed wan, watery and crunchy. It had become a Sno-Cone with pretensions, and it had lost its will to live.
THE CHINESE CHICKEN COOKBOOK: More Than 100 Easy-to-Prepare, Authentic Recipes for the American Table (Simon & Schuster, $24), by Eileen Yin-Fei Lo. This is a lovely book to cook from, a brisk and thoughtful tour through dozens of regions of China. Lo is serious about freshness; she even advises visiting live chicken markets for freshly killed and ''hand plucked'' birds. In the age of SARS, this might seem like a scary idea. (You can always raise your own. But the last time we killed and hand-plucked one of our own chickens, we barely had the energy to cook it. We just stared at it for a long time.) If you are feeling conspiratorial, head to Page 50, where there's a superb recipe for Mou Tai Chicken, an unusual dish that became famous after it was served to Richard Nixon during his historic 1972 trip to China. If you cook your way through Lo's book -- and we intend to -- you'll also amass a first-class collection of soy sauces.

A prospective randomized trial of content expertise versus process expertise in small group teaching
1 Division of Critical Care Medicine, Centre for Health Education Scholarship and Centre for Health Evaluation and Outcome Sciences, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada
2 Department of Clinical Neurosciences and Office of Undergraduate Medical Education, Calgary, Canada
3 Department of Family Medicine and Office of Undergraduate Medical Education, Calgary, Canada
4 Division of Gastroenterology and Office of Undergraduate Medical Education, Calgary, Canada
5 Division of Nephrology and Office of Undergraduate Medical Education, Calgary, Canada
6 ADP was a member of the Office of Undergraduate Medical Education at the University of Calgary at the time of this study
BMC Medical Education 2010, 10:70 doi:10.1186/1472-6920-10-70Published: 14 October 2010
Effective teaching requires an understanding of both what (content knowledge) and how (process knowledge) to teach. While previous studies involving medical students have compared preceptors with greater or lesser content knowledge, it is unclear whether process expertise can compensate for deficient content expertise. Therefore, the objective of our study was to compare the effect of preceptors with process expertise to those with content expertise on medical students' learning outcomes in a structured small group environment.
One hundred and fifty-one first year medical students were randomized to 11 groups for the small group component of the Cardiovascular-Respiratory course at the University of Calgary. Each group was then block randomized to one of three streams for the entire course: tutoring exclusively by physicians with content expertise (n = 5), tutoring exclusively by physicians with process expertise (n = 3), and tutoring by content experts for 11 sessions and process experts for 10 sessions (n = 3). After each of the 21 small group sessions, students evaluated their preceptors' teaching with a standardized instrument. Students' knowledge acquisition was assessed by an end-of-course multiple choice (EOC-MCQ) examination.
Students rated the process experts significantly higher on each of the instrument's 15 items, including the overall rating. Students' mean score (±SD) on the EOC-MCQ exam was 76.1% (8.1) for groups taught by content experts, 78.2% (7.8) for the combination group and 79.5% (9.2) for process expert groups (p = 0.11). By linear regression student performance was higher if they had been taught by process experts (regression coefficient 2.7 [0.1, 5.4], p < .05), but not content experts (p = .09).
When preceptors are physicians, content expertise is not a prerequisite to teach first year medical students within a structured small group environment; preceptors with process expertise result in at least equivalent, if not superior, student outcomes in this setting.

Asian Americans:
A Status Report
HRD-90-36FS: Published: Mar 8, 1990. Publicly Released: May 8, 1990.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed the income, employment, education, health, and nutrition status of Asian Americans, and their enrollment in nine federal welfare programs.
GAO found that: (1) data on Asian Americans were limited because available studies were not sufficient to make statistically valid nationwide projections; and (2) data on Asian Americans by country of origin or ethnic group were not available, except for the 1980 census. GAO also found that: (1) Southeast Asian refugees had lower incomes and educational levels, as well as higher poverty, unemployment, and welfare program participation rates than other Asian American groups; (2) the groups with the most language difficulties had the highest participation rates in welfare programs; (3) the per-capita average household income and education for Asian Americans was about the same as the national average in 1985; (4) 75 percent of Southeast Asian adults who immigrated to the United States between 1978 and 1982 had less than a high school education; and (5) Asian Americans had longer life expectancies, lower death rates from all causes, and lower infant mortality rates, but suffered from higher rates of infectious diseases and nutritional and mental health problems than the U.S. population as a whole.

Key recruiting visits -- ACC
By Jared Shanker
Signing day is now officially less than a week away. Recruits can make their final visits to colleges this weekend, and then beginning Monday there will be no more in-person contact between coaches and recruits. So coaches better make these last visits count.
Here are the 10 biggest visits affecting ACC teams this weekend, although this late to signing day there is always a potential for a change of plans or cancellation.
Malachi Dupre
(River Ridge, La./John Curtis)
Visiting: UCLA
Florida State is feeling confident, but the Noles probably were hoping to get Dupre, No. 17 in the ESPN 300, for his last visit. Instead he visited Ole Miss during the middle of this week and now goes to UCLA. The Noles would have preferred to turn this into a FSU-LSU battle, but these last two visits could really muddy the waters for the nation's top-ranked receiver.
After decommitting from Florida, Ermon Lane's visit to FSU seems to signal the Seminoles will be his choice on national signing day.
Ermon Lane
(Homestead, Fla./Homestead)
Visiting: Florida State
One receiver the Noles probably won't have to worry about is Lane, the No. 2 receiver. He will visit Florida State this weekend, and it will be his only official visit since a decommitment from Florida. He is close with RB
Dalvin Cook
(Miami/Central), who flipped to the Noles from the Gators a month ago. Lane will likely commit on signing day, and his national letter of intent should be headed to Tallahassee.
Damian Prince
(Forestville, Md./Bishop McNamara)
Visiting: Florida
The top uncommitted tackle and No. 26 in the ESPN 300, Prince has finally cut his list to Florida and Maryland. The Terps have felt good about landing Prince for months but over the last month the Gators have flown up his board and into the final two. His last visit is to Gainesville and could be the deciding factor.
Malik McDowell
(Southfield, Mich./Southfield)
Visiting: Ohio State
Much like Dupre, Florida State looks to be in the top two but another visit is on the horizon. Michigan State looks to be the favorite, but McDowell's father, Greg, continually questions the environment in East Lansing. The Noles could have been a happy middle ground, but now Ohio State, new DL coach Larry Johnson and Urban Meyer get the last crack.
J.C. Jackson
(Immokalee, Fla./Immokalee)
Visiting: Florida State?
Will he or won't he? The Florida commit is contemplating a visit to Tallahassee but the situation is always evolving with Jackson. Originally the Noles' first 2014 commit, he flipped to Florida and after flirting again with FSU, he cut the Noles and named a final two of Florida and Miami. Now the Noles could get the final visit.
Treon Harris
(Miami/Booker T. Washington)
Visiting: Miami
A Florida commitment for several months, Harris is showing late interest in a number of schools. He loved his visit to Auburn and is now planning a trip to Miami. The Canes face an uphill battle in not only passing Florida State but Auburn too. Flipping the nation's seventh-ranked dual-threat quarterback would be a defining recruiting moment for Al Golden.
Travonte Valentine
(Hialeah, Fla./Champagnat Catholic)
Visiting: Miami
Hurricanes fans are holding out hope that getting Valentine on campus last will be enough to overtake LSU. All signs point to the Tigers, however, after decommitting from Miami earlier this month and officially visiting Baton Rouge the weekend of Jan. 24. While he's obviously working to get both of them, Golden would probably be happy landing either Harris or Valentine.
Dexter Wideman
(Saluda, S.C./Saluda)
Visiting: Florida State
Although the ESPN 300 defensive lineman committed to the Noles in July, rampant speculation is swirling that sixth-ranked prospect in South Carolina is really leaning toward the Gamecocks. Wideman, No. 179 in the ESPN 300, officially visited Columbia two weeks ago but did not flip. The FSU coaches have done a great job of keeping Wideman in the fold the last two months, and now they can wrap him up on his official visit this weekend.
Trevon Lee
(Fort Lauderdale, Fla./Cardinal Gibbons)
Visiting: Duke
The Blue Devils get the final visit after Lee, No. 235 in the ESPN 300, officially visited Vanderbilt's campus the weekend of Jan. 24. A decision will come down to those two schools, so the Duke coaches have to like the timing of the visits. David Cutcliffe made his in-home visit earlier this week, and he hopes this official visit weekend will wrap up Lee's verbal pledge.
Derrick Nnadi
(Virginia Beach, Va./Ocean Lakes)
Visiting: Virginia
The Cavs have not been talked about much in Nnadi's recruitment, but they do get the final visit. Mike London has done very well in Virginia Beach, and it would not be a total shock to see Nnadi commit to UVa on signing day.

Neil Armstrong, First Man on the Moon, Dead at 82: No, the Korean War Ace & Icy Test Pilot Did Not Tell a Blow-Job Joke on the Moon
Sad news for NASA and its Houston family, as word has come down that the first man on our moon has died today. Armstrong was 82.
Breaking News and NBC News reported the news over Twitter around 2 p.m. Saturday afternoon Houston time. NASA has its own obit up now, too.
Armstrong was a part of the Apollo 11 mission, which landed on the moon on July 20, 1969. He is the first human to set foot on lands other than our own.
As the next few days go by, the enormity of what Armstrong, the Apollo and Gemini programs, his astronaut colleagues and those on the ground who made it all possible will be discussed over and over again. In a year that saw the end of the space shuttle program, Armstrong's death is just another blow to the U.S. space program.
After his NASA career ended in 1971, Armstrong taught at the University of Cincinnati, served on the board of various corporations and remained an important figure in the science and space field.
Armstrong's crewmates from the Apollo 11 mission, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins, are still alive and make sporadic public appearances.
Here's NASA's official Armstrong photo gallery.
Among our Armstrong coverage from the past:
-- Armstrong was notoriously publicity-shy; the hunt for an authentic autograph turned into a Holy Grail for one Houstonian.
-- Our list of eight very odd NASA experimental planes includes one that almost killed Armstrong in tests.
-- The five best Apollo 11 myths includes the urban legend that Armstrong made a blow-job joke on the moon.
-- Five guys who played Armstrong on TV or in film -- they suffered a "Jesus Curse" of sorts.
-- Our list of the top 10 warplane movies, according to real aviation buffs, includes one based partly on Armstrong's Korean War service.
