Since the launch of the first Legacy Venture fund more than a decade ago, our investors have committed to invest more than $1 billion to amplify their positive impact in the world.
– – – – –
At Legacy Venture, we tap the potential of venture capital to help our members amplify their positive impact in the world.
Founded in 1999, Legacy aggregates over a billion dollars from nearly 500 investors who intend that all returns, hopefully multiplied nicely, will be used for their individual philanthropic interests. Thus Legacy investors leverage venture returns to make an even more significant impact for good in the world.
These top venture funds are highly sought after and in most cases are not accessible to anyone outside of a very small circle of investors. Legacy has gained access to these venture funds by virtue of its philanthropic mission and its well-connected management team and investors. In exchange for investment access to these top venture funds, our investors intend to donate all principal and profits to the philanthropic causes they individually choose.
Legacy also offers opportunities for investors to interact with each other and with philanthropic leaders, allowing them to further leverage the impact of their gifts. Legacy investors have given to over 6,000 philanthropic organizations across the full spectrum of causes, often innovating in their approach to philanthropy.
Legacy Venture's management team is comprised of seasoned leaders in venture capital, finance and philanthropy who have more than 50 years of combined experience in the field. Their deep insights and personal networks are a key part of what makes Legacy Venture attractive to such elite and successful funds, and what empower our members to maximize their philanthropy.

Article: Melon EIN3-like transcription factors (CmEIL1 and CmEIL2) are positive regulators of an ethylene- and ripening-induced 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid oxidase gene (CM-ACO1)[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The melon 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid oxidase gene (CM-ACO1) is an ethylene responsive gene and plays a role in ethylene synthesis in ripening fruits. To elucidate the regulatory mechanism of the CM-ACO1 gene during the ripening stage, we isolated two cDNAs encoding melon Ethylene Insensitive 3 (EIN3)-like genes (CmEIL1 and CmEIL2) from ripening melon (Cucumis melo L. cv. Andes) fruits, and studied their properties. The predicted amino acid sequences of CmEIL1 and CmEIL2 were highly homologous to that of EIN3 (60 and 52% similarity for CmEIL1 and CmEIL2, respectively). CmEIL1 and CmEIL2 proteins interacted with a CM-ACO1 promoter in the yeast one-hybrid system, and activated transcription of CM-ACO1 promoter in melon leaf discs by a transient experiment with the luciferase reporter gene. The mRNA levels of CM-ACO1, CmEIL1 and CmEIL2 genes were very low in immature melon fruits, but increased markedly in fruits during the ripening stage. Ethylene did not affect the expression levels of CmEIL1 and CmEIL2 genes in melon leaf tissues. These results suggest that CmEIL1 and CmEIL2 were ripening-related genes, and that their products acted as transcriptional activators of the CM-ACO1 gene in ripening melon fruits.Plant Science 03/2010; 178(3-178):251-257.

Book Club
BPP Book Club: Part Deux
Our book club selection for the month of April is Aryn Kyle's The God of Animals, a coming-of-age story set in the American West. Alice Winston is a 12-year-old girl growing up on a ranch in Desert Valley, Colorado. Book Club leader Sarah Goodyear says the book had her from the first paragraph:
Six months before Polly Cain drowned in the canal, my sister, Nona, ran off and married a cowboy. My father said there was a time when he would have been able to stop her, and I wasn't sure if he meant a time in our lives when she would have listened to him, or a time in history when the Desert Valley Sheriff's Posse would have been allowed to chase after her with torches and drag her back to our house by her yellow hair. My father had been a member of the sheriff's posse since before I was born, and he said that the group was pretty much the same as the Masons, except without the virgin sacrifices. They paid dues, rode their horses in parades, and directed traffic at the rodeo where my sister met her cowboy. Only once in a great while were they called upon for a task of real importance, like clearing a fallen tree from a hunting trail, or pulling a dead girl out of the canal.
It's out in paperback and also available as an audiobook and for your Kindle, if you've got one. Grab a copy and read along with us.
The next book club meeting happens Friday, May 2. Get to reading!

Excellent choice. It is winging it's way to me from Amazon right now. The author is a fellow Coloradan and was interviewed about this book on our home-grown NPR show Colorado Matters: http://www.trumix.com/podshows/1327783
I hope Amazon appreciates your recommendations! I just ordered one book for myself and four for various friends.
I read stupid ammounts of boooks. In fact I think it would be safe to say I consume books. I just finished a book bought at library sale called 'AVA's MAN'. Older book published in 2001 written by Rick Bragg. Highly recommended. Plus I could give you a list if interested in some of the great all time in the past decade if interested.
I am looking for a book: I thought the title was Small Change or Pocket change." The novel is about(three?) female college students who leave Berkeley and travel to Mississippi to work in "Freedom Summer," of 1964. Does anyone know the title and name of the author of this novel?
I'm surprised I'm buying a coming of age story about a girl and horses. But, I downloaded the first chapter for the kindle and found the writing is good. I'm in. Actually, I used to read the series "The Best of the West, New Stories from the West Side of the Missouri" which featured good writing that, incidentally, was set in the rural west. So, maybe I'm not that surprised I'll be reading this along with you all.
@Dave Wiley: Thanks for the link! And glad this selection meets with your approval.
@Mark Wilderman: I liked Ava's Man, too, although Rick Bragg's voice started grating on me after a while. Maybe I'd read too much of his writing in the NY Times before I read the book. Anyway, more recommendations always welcome.
@Steven Ford: I'll try to track that down for you, but no luck yet.
@John Tynan: So glad you took a chance on this. I really think it is a fine book, not just for the girls-who-love-horses set by any stretch.
I started the audiobook over the weekend, and I really like it! I had to hit pause because I worried I'd blow through the whole book and finish too early.
But I think you said the 1st chapter was originally a short story. If I didn't know that you, Sarah Goodyear, have good taste in books, I'd worry that it's all downhill from there.
@Tricia: Don't worry, the story-telling just keeps rolling.
I am so loving this! I should be in bed, but I can't stop reading (except to check in on what other people say). The only other horsey book I've ever read was 'Cissy's Texas Pride' when I was about 8 years old, which was good, but I was afraid I wouldn't be able to get into this one. I was so wrong!! Thanks!
Hi all! I'm still making progress with the Aryn Kyle book... somewhere in chapter 3 I think. And Darn! I can see a few things coming... like the proverbial train wreck.
Tell me, when May 2nd rolls around, what can we expect in terms of participation? Will we be listening to you all discuss the book via the podcast and replying by posting to the blog? Or, will we have an IM chat session? Or would we be posting updates to twitter?
Maybe we'll all descend on Andy's for a house(s)warming party. I'll bring the bean dip and some Arizona microbrews...
Your thoughts?
@Jenni Waters: So glad you're enjoying.
@John Tynan: I will go on the air that day and briefly talk about the book with the host. Then, there will be an open thread on the blog that day where you'll be invited to share your comments, respond to those of others, and also to pose questions for the author...your questions might be incorporated into the host's interview with Aryn Kyle, which will air a couple of days later. Last time, a listener called in and asked the author a question on the air.
Twitter might start to factor in at some point, but right now we're trying to focus things on the blog so that our energies don't get diffused.
It's all in the formative stages and your input is welcome. Andy has not yet issued an invitation, though...
@Sarah: Appreciate the heads up.
One question. (and I apologize if this is off topic for anyone, but) I'm trying to put this into my calendar but I'm unclear as to the time the show airs? Am I right in thinking that it's 7am ET?
I suppose I can find a station which streams the show at that time and post to the blog at the same time. Or, do you stream the show live from NPR.org?
I'll wait on the invite. I hear Andy makes a mean Matzah Brei and kneidlach. :D
All the best, JT
@John Tynan: The show does start at 7am ET. You can stream it directly from the NPR site. Not sure what time the books segment will run. I'm going to send out an alert to the people signed up for the mailing list on any logistical information I have in advance.
Looking forward to it.
I have three chapters left to finish the novel, and I don't know if I'll be up at 5am to listen in on the show, but...
In looking back at my notes - one passage that I noted reminded me of the section at the end of Catcher in the Rye from which the novel gets its name... It reminded me of something Holden Caulfield might say, were he a girl:
"What about animals?" I asked finally. "What about them?" I had waited for the tears to stop before I called him, waited until my whole body was empty and dry, hard as a fist. But now I felt the sadness rising again inside my chest. "It just seems like there should be someone, something out there that cares about them, cares that they existed, that they suffered or didn't." My voice rasped across my tongue, thickening my words and tightening behind my sinuses. "Something out there ought to be watching over them."
Did anyone else see Alice as a kind of Holden Caulfiend for girls?

It was too much to overcome too quickly Sunday for the St. Landry Bank Indians.
Top-seeded Otto Candies grabbed a 6-0 first inning lead and used the early advantage to help defeat St. Landry Bank 13-5 Sunday afternoon during the elimination round of the American Legion State Championship held at John Ryan Field.
The Indians were plagued by errors, walks and the hitting of Hahnville-based Otto Candies, which survived the double elimination round and will meet the Retif Oil and Pake BMW loser on Monday. ...

Cabeço dos Tarafes Things to Do
Cabeça dos Tarafes
During a tour of Boa Vista island in May 2011, we visited the cluster of three villages in the north east of the island, one of which is Cabeça dos Tarafes.
Our guidebook stated that these villages were located in the greenest part of the island, in an area known as "The Garden of Boa Vista". They didn't appear to be particularly green, but compared to the rest of the island (which consists of sandy beaches and a rocky, dusty interior) there was certainly more plant life here than elsewhere. There were trees lining some of the streets and bright pink and red bougainvillea on the front of many of the homes.
We first arrived at Cabeça dos Tarafes having travelled up the east side of the island over rough tracks in a 4 wheel drive pick-up truck. Compared to the road that we had travelled along up until this point, the road into Cabeça dos Tarafes and onto the other two villages was of a much better standard. It wasn't a tarmac road, but at least it was a clearly defined, if somewhat cobbled, road. You could easily drive between the villages in a standard car (i.e. not an off-road vehicle) and that is more than can be said for much of the rest of the island!
Cabeça dos Tarafes was almost deserted as we passed through; we saw only one solitary lady walking along one of the streets and into what appeared to be a bar/grocery store. We didn't stop here, we just drove through slowly and snapped a few photos from the back of the truck. There were a few dozen pretty little houses, all low rise and some painted in bright colours and boasting small gardens outside. There didn't appear to be much here to attract a visitor's attention for too long; in fact a satellite map of the village on www.boavistaexperience.com marks only two buildings out for a mention and both of those are bars/grocery stores.

Anglo American shares up on dividendComment on this story
Johannesburg - Johannesburg-listed shares of Anglo American up after company lifts its dividend by 15 percent in a bid to woo investors after its 2012 earnings halved.
The headline numbers were above some analysts' expectations, and the dividend increase cheered investors, despite caution over future payouts.
Deutsche Bank said in a note on the dividend increase: "This was above expectations given the increase in levels of debt and group cash flow. This indicates that the management is focused on controlling project spent and on shareholder value."
Anglo American is trading 1.3 percent higher at 278.85 rand, outperforming the Top-40 index which was 0.08 percent lower. - Reuters

Griffin, fresh from the success of the Griffin Crayola ColorStudio HD, has announced yet more kid friendly accessories for your iPhone and iPad.
First up is the Crayola Trace & Draw which works alongside a free iOS App. This is basically a case to protect your iPad that also allows the little 'uns to get creative with the interactive animations.
Simply slide a piece of paper in the slot and, combined with the supplied marker, hours of fun for your kids can be had without the risk of scratches, smudges or boggies on your iPad 2's display thanks to the durable static peel screen protector.
There's also a new Crayola Paint & Create App hitting the App Store. Priced at £1.99 this gives kiddies the choice of 40 activities, including games, puzzles, mazes, colour-by-numbers, dot-to-dots and algebra. Actually, not algebra - it's all fun.
"Griffin's range of products for kids is just beginning, with many more child-friendly apps and accessories slated to launch in months to come," said Mark Rowan, president of Griffin Technology.
"We love creating technology for children - it's one of the most exciting and rewarding things we do. Teaming up with Crayola lets children unlock their inner artist to create great pieces of artwork for home or office display."
Finally we've got the Woogie 2 which is essentially the most elaborate iPhone case ever released. It turns your Apple phone into a cuddly toy, thus protecting it when the little rascals want to play a bit of Angry Birds, or catch up on season 3 of The Wire after they've ripped it off of The Pirate Bay.
The Crayola Trace & Draw is priced at £29.95 and is available from Apple, the Woogie 2 is available direct from Griffin for £12.95.

Wow. I like the idea of paying a dividend but I was surprised by the size of the dividend and the formula used to determine future dividends. Interesting to see how they will make out and if the gap between NAV and trading price closes.

Vacuwash was developed in North America over the past decade and has shown exceptional results with even the modern laminated sails. The process involves placing the sails in a vacuum chamber, removing the air and water from the voids between the sails layers and fibres, slowly introducing a cleaning agent that penetrates every layer and subsequently thoroughly rinsing the sail. The sails are cleaned in 3-4 days.
Vacuwash logo
There is nothing else like Vacuwash on the market. The process removes mildew in sails and does so without damaging the sails or adhesives in any way; there is no agitation, scrubbing or high pressure water washing at all.
Cleaning your sails and canvas will increase the replacement cycle. Salt, mildew, dirt, bird droppings and pollution are all working at the fibres and stitching. An annual professional clean will remove all this and help keep the fabrics in tip top condition. When you consider how often the rest of your boat is cleaned, then it is a wonder why sails and canvas have been left of the list for so long.
Prevention is always the best option, applying McLube Sailkote Plus to the sail after cleaning will help prevent the mould from returning, as well giving a friction free surface which will furl up to 30% tighter, great for in mast and boom furled mainsails.
Make sure to request a quote from Quantum to go into the running to win a $500 Vacuwash voucher.

Thank you Chris !
You got the big award.
Book says Chlorophyll could be coated to the dry emulsion plates for few seconds.
I think this open the gates because it is difficult to process liquid emulsion at full dark and if I can do it to sprayed dried emulsion , everything becomes easier.
Be sure , chlorophyll is one of the widest researched substance and you can find it from local university , biological medical distributor , lab or Sigma.
May be excessive amount of yellow comes from this formula at some autochromes.
May be Ron gives more detail.

Offering the first year of a University Degree in just 6 months, without stepping into a classroom, The Cove Hotel School offers A- Level Leavers the chance to get 120 Higher Education Credits and a Higher Diploma from The Institute of Hospitality in just 6 months, whilst managing a "live" boutique hotel.
Students will live and work in the hotel gaining experience in every aspect of running it from marketing, food preparation, front of house systems and more, all part of an FDA in Hospitality Management offered by Plymouth University.
After 6 months, students can then either decide to go onto the second year of university or onto a career in Hotel Management, as the hotel will set up an internship with other Boutique Hotel partner hotels for a further 6 months, allowing students to return to complete the FDa the following October.
This is a fast track vocational education, much needed by the hospitality industry. Lee Magner the principle behind the scheme says…
"This is based on the old Swiss Hotel School principle where "learning is by doing". More students leaving after A-Levels are shunning the conventional university route and are looking for an investment that is going to net them a job. The industry has a huge demand for home grown talent and we are hoping that students from The Cove Hotel School will go on to become leaders in the hospitality industry."
The School's Open Day is set for 24th August and there are five Scholarships up for grabs, paying 50% of the course fees.
If you require any further information please don't hesitate to contact Lee Magner at The Cove Hotel School on 01736 731411 or view our website http://www.thecovehotelschool.com

5th SAP Mission: "The Wolves Den"
22th SAP Armor Division have trapped German forces and Wolfgang itself in their stronghold outside Berlim,if our blockade continue they will be desperate for supplys, but they already alarmed Willem forces and they are on the move to assist then.
We have lost our communications with our airbase in Rome so we cant recive our own air support and Willem are sending Bombers to clear the area and rescue Wolfgang-We cant let it Happen!
Our good diplomatics with Russia have given us some favors and Gen Orlov will assist us with air cover.
If we suceed Wolfgang forces will retreat and russian tanks can free walk into Europe.
Mission Objectivies:
1th Clear Wolfgang minor base in South East so Orlov can arrive.
2th Hold the line about 25 minutes after Orlov arrived to empty Wolfgang supplys and capture then.
1th Wolfgang have an solar reactor in North West inside Berlim and 2 tech reactors spared in the city take then out and their defenses will go offline.
2th Willem will be constantly sending mine drops around Wolfgang take then out with Orlov fighters.
Mission sytems:
SAP forces are short on funds(About 5000)the campaing so far have crippled some of our vehicles(we produce only Armada Motor-Rifle vehicles ultil Orlov arrives with more supplys).
We still dont build air units until 12 minutes beforethe end your operatives discover what happened with the communications its was Thorn special forces dat sabotaged us in favor to its ECA contacts, the communications are now online and we can call in air units and special powers to end the job and capture surrended Wolfgang!.
This will be SAPs battle of Alesia:
Wolfgang in the middle and our forces maked an ring around him we have to defend against inside and outside at the same time it will be an Hell of a battle!
That is execellent, the Hold-the-line process will be re-enforced with the "sniper-tanks" SU-180UM deployable AT-self-proppelled guns of death. Time to wreck the superior German armor by surprise. Block the advance of the heavy mechanize forces with the Bandeireta AT 30mm Enforcer-Rifles, deploy as many militia-motor-rifle light units to encercle the remaining enemy infantry from escaping... Lastly, send a chemical bombing strike to dislodge the remaining forces in the Reich-stag.
LOL Reich-STAG!

After a last-minute change last week, the topics of natural gas and the James DeYoung power plant are back on the Holland City Council's Wednesday agenda.
After a last-minute change last week, the topics of natural gas and the James DeYoung power plant are back on the Holland City Council's Wednesday agenda.
The council's agenda last week included a resolution of support for the Holland Board of Public Works staff recommendation to pursue a natural gas power plant. The council chose instead to discuss the matter in a study session after the regular meeting, putting off the decision.
The BPW Board of Directors adopted the resolution last month. The resolution is a show of support for the recommendation to build a new power plant at a site other than the James DeYoung site located in downtown Holland on Lake Macatawa.
That location would have been needed if city and BPW officials opted to move forward with expanding that plant, a consideration now a few years old, because coal shipments are received via the water. The city holds a state-issued air permit for that expansion. An 18-month extension was given on that permit until February 2014, while the city considers its electrical generation options.
The fate of the DeYoung plant was part of the hold up on the vote last week. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is reconsidering a new regulation that would have affected the units at the plant and would have forced several million dollars in capital investment at the plant to comply. The BPW is recommending to not spend that money.
Units 4 and 5 at the plant can be switched to burn natural gas during summer peak demand months. Unit 3 likely will need to go offline in a matter of a few years.
The city council chose a study session last week because a solid recommendation was not given for the fate of the DeYoung plant. Councilman Jay Peters is in favor of opening up the waterfront. Councilman Myron Trethewey doens't think the ware can be opened up for park or residential land considering it is surrounded by other industries.
The recommendation from BPW staff is to build a 114 megawatt combined cycle natural gas plant not on the waterfront. It does not have the same cooling needs as the coal fired units at the James DeYoung plant.
Included with that is the recommendation to follow through on two wind energy options, one in Indiana, another in Michigan, which would provide the BPW with some of state-mandated renewable energy credits. Electric providers in the state must be using 10 percent renewable energy resources by 2015.
Councilman Wayne Klomparens has questioned the use of natural gas. Opponents, including the Sierra Club and Clean Water Action, have asked the city to not switch from burning one fossil fuel to another, siting natural gas' greenhouse gas emissions and the dangers of the hydraulic fracturing process needed to extract it from the deep under ground. Spokespersons also said conservation, energy efficiency and renewable energy should be the city's focus.
Page 2 of 2 - Mayor Kurt Dykstra countered, saying the only options for provide baseload power are coal, nuclear or natural gas.

Do You Use A Digital or Film Camera?
When I came across this older (as in 2002) picture of Donatella Versace, Madonna, and Gwyneth Paltrow having some fun with Gwyneth's 35mm film camera, it brought me back to the days when I religiously carried my huge film cam to every party and function. Now with digital cameras we have the freedom to take all the shots we want, view them, and delete the ones we don't like on the spot. I'm curious to know how many of you still use 35mm film cameras (hey, I'm not giving mine away any time soon)! And how many of you have completely switched over to the digital. Better yet, you might use a really expensive manual camera packed full of amazing features and functions! Either or, let me know below! Image Source

Please note that all info is subject to change.
Are there any divisions? For example Masters?
There is only one division: Amateur. No age or gender protected divisions are offered. You have to play in the MA1 PDGA division in a qualifier or have a high enough amateur Player Rating to be eligible to qualify. That means if you are a woman of "master's" age, you still have to play in the MA1 division of a qualifier or have a high enough player rating to qualify. Rule 804.08 of the PDGA rules of play states, "...Female players may compete in male divisions if they choose...". The reasoning behind this is that if you are good enough to be playing for the U.S. Amateur title, you are good enough to play in the toughest Amateur division to qualify.
How did you pick the qualifiers that you did?
An event by me draws more than a C tier in North Dakota, what's up?
We try our best to get the qualifying tournaments determined as early as possible, but sometimes the sanctioning or even the existence of a tournament won't be known in time. If you would like to submit a tournament for consideration next year, please email firstname.lastname@example.com with the details.
I qualified, but I still might not get in?
There is a possibility that even if you qualify, you may not get into the tournament. The reason is we have X number of qualifying events and we are going to invite the top 20% of the MA1 players in that event. Based on the number of entrants last year plus the 250 player rating invites, this yields approximately 550 invitations. The field will be limited to 148 players. Invitations will be sent out in groups based on the dates and published results of the qualifying events. What this boils down to is the sooner you qualify means you have the opportunity to register for the United States Amateur Disc Golf Championship.
If someone has already qualified, do you take the next person in line?
In past years, the answer would have been yes. However, this policy has been changed to maintain the highest poosible competitive standards. If Player A has previously qualified and finishes in a qualifying position at another event, that qualifying position will no longer be extended below the cutoff line.
I qualified at the (blank) tournament, when do I get my invitation?
You may have received some information at the qualifying event but our Tournament Director will e-mail your official invite after the results are posted and the PDGA has given us the qualified players e-mails. Please be sure the PDGA has your correct e-mail address. If you have not received your invite soon after you have qualified, please
contact us

2015 Rules for qualification:
Ways to qualify for current PDGA Amateurs (subject to change):
Top 15 percent at qualifying B-tiers, top 20 percent at qualifying A-tiers and ties for the Men's Am Advanced division only. Players that previously qualified in an event do not drop out if they qualify again. Their spot counts as a spoiler. No top five from each state this year.
Players who qualify based on their Player Rating must contact the TD before they are eligible. Eligible Rating guide is below:
Beginning February 1: PDGA rating is 970+
Beginning March 1: PDGA rating is 960+
Beginning April 1: PDGA rating is 950+
Beginning May 1: PDGA rating is 935+

Synthesis of oxazolidinones and derivatives
Recent Literature
Synthesis of oxazolidin-2-ones derivatives was carried out starting from urea and ethanolamine reagents using microwave irradiation in a chemical paste medium in which a catalytic amount of nitromethane absorbs the microwaves and generates hot spots.
G. Bratulescu, Synthesis, 2007, 3111-3112.
An efficient, versatile and practical gram-scale preparation of oxazolidinone, imidazolidinone and dioxolanone is achieved.
N. Alouane, A. Boutier, C. Baron, E. Vrancken, P. Mangeney, Synthesis, 2006, 860-864.
Carbonylimidazole derivatives are highly active acylation reagents for esterification and amidation in the presence of pyridinium salts as catalysts. These reactions are thought to involve both Brønsted acid and nucleophilic catalysis. This mode of activation has been applied to the synthesis of difficult to access oxazolidinones, as well as esters and amides.

A mild Pd-catalyzed ring-opening cyclization reaction of 2-vinylaziridines with an ambient atmosphere of carbon dioxide gives 5-vinyloxazolidinones in high yield as well as regio- and stereoselectivity.
F. Fontana, C. C. Chen, V. K. Aggarwal, Org. Lett., 2011, 13, 3454-3457.
An oxidative cleavage of alkyl C-Pd bond by H2O2 enables a palladium-catalyzed intramolecular aminohydroxylation to give various heterocycles with good yields and excellent diastereoselectivities. Facile transformation of these products provided a powerful tool toward the synthesis of 2-amino-1,3-diols and 3-ol amino acids. Preliminary mechanistic studies revealed that a SN2 type attack of water at a high-valent Pd center is involved.

The use of Pd(OAc)2 and n-Bu4NOAc as catalysts enables ane efficient and simple synthesis of oxazolidinones, oxazolidinthiones, imidazolidinthiones, and imidazolidinones from the corresponding propargylic starting materials in DCE at room temperature.

A mild and efficient gold(I)-catalyzed rearrangement of propargylic tert-butylcarbamates allows the synthesis of various 5-methylene-1,3-oxazolidin-2-ones, which would be less conveniently obtained using other methods.
A. Buzas, F. Gagosz, Synlett, 2006, 2727-2730.
Various N-Boc-protected alkynylamines are converted into the corresponding alkylidene 2-oxazolidinones or 2-oxazinones under very mild reaction conditions in the presence of a cationic Au(I) complex in high yield regardless of the substitution at nitrogen and alkyne terminus.
R. Robles-Machin, J. Adrio, J. C. Carretero, J. Org. Chem., 2006, 71, 4951-4955.
A nickel-catalyzed cycloaddition of aziridines with isocyanates proceeded smoothly to give iminooxazolidine derivatives in good yields. A longer reaction time allowed the isomerization of the iminooxazolidine to the corresponding imidazolidinone derivatives.

Tackling homophobia, the last taboo in football
The shirts of Germany's top flight players will this weekend be adorned with a unanimous slogan: "Geh deinen Weg" ("Go your own way") as part of the weekly Integrations-Spieltag (Integration Matchday). The message of integration is primarily in support of young members of the immigrant community but following an interview with an anonymous gay footballer in the German magazine "Fluter", it is the homophobia debate which has begun to take centre stage.

Frank Ocean's brave decision in the macho world of urban music
In the uber-macho and hetero-centric world of urban music, particularly in hip-hop, coming out as gay or bisexual isn't exactly an everyday occurrence. So Frank Ocean's decision to publish a heartfelt open letter on his Tumblr site this week revealing that his first love was in fact a man has significant implications.

Banter Bigotry: It's only a joke, love
Banter is a very odd thing. As an activity it provides a handy shelter for bigots to flex their anti PC brigade muscles and to prove to their friends that they fell out of the funny tree and hit every branch on the way down. What it is not alledgedly is subjective. Anyone who questions the banter status quo is immediately deemed humourless. I've seen it used to shield people from accusations of racism, homophobia, disablism and sexism and it's the latter, which as a 45 year old woman, I've witnessed most.

As long as the Catholic Church pushes homophobia, it shouldn't be allowed to run state schools
You have to hand it to the Catholic Church. It takes a certain level of chutzpah to come through arguably the most widespread global paedophile scandal in human history and its subsequent alleged cover-up, and still be dishing out moral guidance on 'disordered sexual practices.'

Britain's Gay Footballers: A few thoughts
Gay footballers. Why don't they come out? This is a topic that I visited in November 2010, and I don't wish to sound like a broken record by going over all of that ground now. More importantly, last night's BBC 3 screening of Britain's Gay Footballers presents a good opportunity for an update.

Blatter, race, and status quo
You see, on one level, what Blatter said can be laughed off as the fumblings of an out-of-touch fool. "Rise above it", etc. Except you can't rise above it, and that's the whole point. Blatter is the top dog.

Michele Bachmann and The Homophobia Vote
Michele Bachmann, founder of the Congressional Tea Party Caucus and candidate for the 2012 Republican Presidential nomination, stepped out from political obscurity this week when a gay activist working for the homosexual advocacy group, Truth Will Out, attempted to shine a spotlight on the checkered, largely unknown, past of Minnesota's 6th district Representative.
Bachmann entered the race [...]

Let's talk about sex, baby
By the time sex education was taught at my secondary school at the end of year nine, one girl had already left to have a baby and another was pregnant; a little too late then, perhaps?

Murder of Ugandan gay activist, David Kato: a response
Yesterday David Kato, a Ugandan gay rights activist, was beaten to death in his home. His murder came a few months after a tabloid had published an article exposing him and other people as homosexual, in what was a very modern witchhunt. Following the publication of that article, he received several death-threats; the police are currently investigating the circumstances of [...]
