BALA CYNWYD, PA--(Marketwire -01/05/12)- Osage University Partners today announced that William (Bill) Harrington has joined the firm as a Managing Partner. Bill previously spent twelve years as a Partner at Three Arch Partners investing in early stage healthcare companies. Osage University Partners is a novel venture capital fund that has partnered with over forty leading universities to make direct investments in their most promising startup companies. In January 2011, Osage held its final closing on its inaugural fund, achieving its $100 million fundraising target.
During Bill's twelve years at Three Arch, he led investments in and served as a director of nearly twenty healthcare companies, a number of which had their origin as university spinouts. He most recently served on the boards of Cameron Health, Baxano, Voyage Medical, Nevro Corporation, APT Pharmaceuticals, and Centerre Healthcare. Prior to entering venture capital in 1999, Bill spent a decade as an interventional radiologist, working with promising new imaging technologies, medical devices, and minimally invasive surgical procedures. Bill holds an MD from Harvard Medical School, an MBA from UC Berkeley, and a BS in Biology and Chemistry from Tufts University. Bill is a CFA charterholder.
"We are excited to have someone of Bill's caliber join Osage University Partners," said Robert Adelson, Managing Partner. "Bill has over a decade of partner-level experience at a top-tier venture fund managing over $1 billion in healthcare investments. Bill combines his extensive investment experience with a strong clinical background, which will be critical in evaluating university life science opportunities. We anticipate that healthcare investments will represent half of Osage University Partners' portfolio."
Osage University Partners has created a unique model through which it manages the coinvestment rights held by its affiliated universities. These coinvestment rights provide Osage with contractual access to invest in the future financings of some of the most promising startup companies that have licensed technology from those universities. Affiliate universities then share in Osage's profit and can use their proceeds to stimulate further education, research, and commercialization initiatives. Universities nationwide collectively create approximately 600 new startups each year based on their research discoveries and have created nearly 5,000 new startups over the last ten years.
"Osage University Partners provides a new approach to investing in the venture capital asset class that offers many advantages over historical models and affords our university partners a means of unlocking an otherwise untapped opportunity," said Dr. Harrington. "The firm has very strong university partners and terrific deal access. It tracks the progress of a very large group of university start-ups and selects the strongest in which to invest. The firm has had great success in partnering with top universities and raising a first fund in what has been an exceptionally difficult fundraising environment, a testament to the excitement and interest in a truly novel investment strategy."
Osage University Partners invests in both early and later stage companies with ties to its affiliated universities. The fund invests across a range of life science and technology sectors, including therapeutics, medical devices and diagnostics, energy, advanced materials, semiconductors, and information technology. The fund has invested in sixteen companies to date. Of those, Avid Radiopharmaceuticals, a diagnostic company focused on Alzheimer's disease, was acquired by Eli Lilly and Gevo, a biofuels company producing isobutanol from biomass, completed a successful IPO in 2011.
Osage University Partners is a member of a family of investment funds developed by Osage Partners. Bill will be working out of Osage's Bala Cynwyd headquarters.
About Osage Partners
Founded in 1990, Osage Partners is a family of investment funds located just outside of Philadelphia, PA. Osage Partners manages in excess of $200 million. Current fund strategies include Osage Venture Partners, an early stage enterprise technology fund focused on the Mid-Atlantic region, and Osage University Partners, a multi-stage fund that invests in university startups across a range of sectors. Under the Osage Partners umbrella, member funds cross-fertilize ideas, leverage internal expertise and share networks and resources.

No Petrochemicals, Phthalates, Propylene Glycol, Mineral Oils, Silicone, Synthetic Dyes, Sulfates, or Parabens.
I developed a severe case of eczema about two years ago. I cannot use anti-perspirant due to chemicals that don't allow you to sweat. I had been using another deodorant that had served me well for 50 years, but to find the cause for the eczema, I needed to exclude any skin irritants, so I tried the LaVanila deodorant. While the price is quite steep, the product exceeds all my expectations. As a professor, I come into contact with dozens of people every day, and this deodorant does not let me down. It's a great product.

What's it takes to ride a bull? Rodeo season ramps up across Montana
It's rodeo time in Montana.
If you haven't had a chance to get out and catch some of the action, we've got a few links that'll make you feel like you didn't miss a thing.
The Drummond PRCA Rodeo was last weekend. And Missoula native Dustin Jenkins told the Missoulian's Andy Bixler what it takes to successfully ride a bull.
"It's 90 percent mental," he said. "When you're on the bull, you can't think about anything else, you just have to react to what's happening."
. . .
The Missoula native won the bull riding competition at the 73rd annual Drummond PRCA rodeo, staying on the full eight seconds and scoring 76 points.
- See a photo gallery of the Drummond rodeo here
"I was happy to get that win, because he was a really hard bull to ride," Jenkins said. "Just being able to stay on was a victory in itself."
That held true for nearly all the bulls on Sunday. Jenkins was one of only two riders to complete a ride; the other was David Graham of Great Falls, who took second with a 64.
And we can't forget Buck Wild Wednesdays in Billings.
Area bull riders compete in the Buck Wild Wednesdays bull riding event at the Rock Pile on North 27th Street. The weekly event will be held through September 2.
- Here's a link to the full gallery by Billings Gazette photographer Casey Page
If you want to catch from bull riding, head down to Darby this today for the Elite Bull Connection and Darby Bullarama. There are more than 40 bulls and lots of prize money.
Montanans shine at rodeo finals
No surprise here: Montana cowboys and cowgirls kicked butt at Las Vegas during the National Finals Rodeo.
Here's the story for the Associated Press. Recognize any names?
Montana cowboys and cowgirls stormed the latest Wrangler National Finals Rodeo with multiple successes over 10 days of the average competition in Las Vegas recently, culminating in several top-10 placings in the year-end PRCA world standings.
Billings team roper Clay Tryan, a header, along with heeler Jade Corkhill (Fallon, Nevada), led the Treasure State's contingent, winning both the average and the world championship. Tryan garnered a total of $220,058 for the year, while garnering his third world title (2005, 2013-14).
Clay, who is the cousin of 2012 NFR qualifier Chase Tryan of Helena, is now a 13-time NFR qualifier, and is just $3,000 shy of $2 million career earnings.
Bull rider Beau Hill of West Glacier placed third in the average and fourth in the world standings, collecting a year's earnings of $148,911. Ty Erickson of Helena finished runner-up in the steer wrestling, and seventh overall, pocketing $123,116.
Team roper Dustin Bird (header) of Cut Bank placed 11th and in the average and sixth in the year-end, for $146,731. In bareback bronc riding, Power's Jessy Davis took 11th in the average and 14th in the overall, earning $75,757.
Culbertson native Lisa Lockhart of Oelrichs, South Dakota, captured the barrel racing average championship and placed runner-up in the world standings. She pocketed a total of $265,514.
Tie-down roper/team roper Trevor Brazile (Decatur, Texas), a former Last Chance Stampede titlist, claimed his 12th PRCA all-around crown.
Wild Horse Stampede: The secret's in the pickle juice
Not only does the Wild Horse Stampede in Wolf Point boast the best rodeo, parades and wild horse races in the West – you can also find what is arguably the best burger in the state during the event that takes place there each July.
You might have to wait awhile to get a "Catholic burger," but as writer Richard Peterson told us in the March/April 2014 issue, it's worth the wait.
Along with his feature about the storied history of the Wild Horse Stampede, Peterson let us know where you can find a Catholic burger. And photographer Lynn Donaldson found out from one of the cooks that the "divine" taste of the burgers comes from the pickle juice that is splashed on the fried onions that top the burger.
It's tradition for Stampede-goers to munch on a "Catholic burger," an iconic food people are willing to wait for. Some wait for as long as 45 minutes in 90-degree plus temperatures to get a taste, Peterson wrote.
An annual fundraiser for the Immaculate Conception Catholic Parish in Wolf Point, the burger stand – open 24 hours during the Stampede – will go through a ton of hamburger and hundreds of pounds of onions in four days, parish member co-organizer Kerry Hanks said.
"That smell of fried onions and burger drifts down the block, and sometimes the line of people will, too," she said. "That's a big part of our success."
Not quite as old as the Stampede, the Catholic burger stand has been in operation for 66 years. It started as a small concession stand on one of Wolf Point's side streets, but its popularity forced it to set up on an empty lot on Main Street during Stampede.
This year, you can get a Catholic burger for yourself July 10-13 during the Stampede.

When we compared eight mic preamps with very different designs and price tags, we found it hard to tell them apart. Could SOS readers do better?
A mic preamp is a device that amplifies the tiny fluctuating voltage generated by a microphone, to a level where it can be processed by other audio equipment such as A-D converters. To some people, technological advances in the last 30 years mean that even the preamps in budget mixers now perform this job perfectly adequately. Others feel that the choice of preamp is a decision which can have a huge impact on the quality of the resulting recording, and are willing to allocate a large part of their budget to this stage in the chain. Who's right? If you spend thousands on 'boutique' hardware to fulfill this role, will you notice a significant improvement?
In October's SOS we set up a test to see exactly how much difference the choice of preamp made in one particular real-world situation. Because it's not possible to record the same performance through the same set of microphones via many different preamps simultaneously, the ever-present risk with this sort of comparison is that variations in the performance from take to take overshadow any differences between the preamps. For example, if you choose to use vocals as a source, even a small variation in the distance between the singer and the microphone will change the vocal sound significantly.
However, in our test we were able to eliminate this variable almost entirely thanks to Yamaha's latest generation of player pianos. Jonathan Dodd of Realpiano (www.realpiano.co.uk) was kind enough to let us use his Disklavier: a grand piano that can play itself, taking a MIDI file as its source. The Disklavier's ability to replicate the same performance time after time is uncanny, and almost eliminates performance variability as a source of uncertainty when comparing recordings. We recorded the same piece of music 24 times, using three different stereo mic arrays (a pair of Brauner cardioid valve capacitor mics, a pair of Sennheiser MKH20 omni small-diaphragm capacitor mics, and a Royer SF12 stereo ribbon mic) and eight different mic preamps. These were then level-matched and renamed so listeners would not know which preamp they were listening to.
We wanted to know how much variation there would be across eight very different preamp designs, and whether the expensive preamps would reliably outshine their cheaper cousins. The most striking aspect of the test for Hugh Robjohns and me was the way in which our expectations coloured our opinions: when we listened back to each take in Jonathan's studio, in the knowledge that we had just recorded a cheap and rather ugly ART unit or a £2000 handbuilt valve preamp, we thought we could hear clear differences between them. But when the files were level-matched and made anonymous, those differences suddenly seemed far smaller, to the point where neither of us felt we could reliably tell them apart in a blind test.
We made the files available on the web site (you can download them from /sos/oct12/articles/preampsmedia.htm), and many SOS readers and forum users posted detailed comments. Hugh collated these into a spreadsheet, allocating points to each preamp on the basis of these subjective opinions. Only then did we consult the key, to discover which were the winners and losers — and you can see which is which by consulting the table in this article. The results, though far from scientific, proved most surprising!
The biggest shock of all for us was the performance of the two budget preamps we'd included in our test: a rackmounting ART Pro MPA II stereo valve unit, and a Mackie 1604 VLZ Pro mixer. When we recorded the files, our impression was that the Mackie had stood up fairly well to the more expensive preamps, but none of us had liked the ART unit. Were we too quick to judge it on its price, its annoying blue LEDs and its somewhat tacky appearance? Readers' opinions would certainly suggest so. With both the Brauners and the Sennheisers, more respondents picked the Pro MPA II as their favourite than any other preamp, and it achieved very respectable scores with the Royer SF12 too. A little way behind it, just leading the field on the Brauners and in third place with the Sennheisers, came... the Mackie mixer! Even allowing for the vagueness inherent in trying to quantify subjective opinions, it's clear that with sensitive modern capacitor mics, affordable preamp designs are anything but overshadowed by names such as Neve, API or SSL.
The Royer ribbon mic should have been the most challenging test for the preamps, because its relatively low output demanded higher preamp gain; in theory, it should have been the one most likely to expose any weaknesses in the budget designs. Whether the collected opinions of SOS readers bear this out is debatable. The Mackie mixer certainly did less well here, but it was nevertheless marginally preferred to the API 3124+ and the Maselec MMA-4XR, while the ART sat comfortably in mid-table. Honours were shared pretty evenly between the Prism Orpheus, SSL XLogic VHD Pre, and the AMS Neve 1073LB.
It should be emphasised again that these scores don't represent any sort of scientific assessment, and indeed, it is fascinating to read the wildly differing views allocated to the same preamp by different people. It was quite common to find a preamp rated first choice by some and eighth by others, or to be described simultaneously as having "classy vintage sound" and being "strident and grainy"! Clearly, different people have different expectations and preferences, and 'hear' different qualities — whether real or imagined, who can say?
Above all, though, it must be pointed out that a good number of readers admitted to being unable to hear any significant difference between the preamps, and even those who heard differences admitted they were very subtle. If there's one firm conclusion that could be drawn from this exercise, it's not that the ART Pro MPA II is a revolutionary world-beating design that knocks pricier rivals into a cocked hat. It's that, when used within their intended operating ranges, to record solo piano, the contribution of the preamp is a lot smaller than that of the microphone, its placement, the room, the instrument, and — above all — the music.
No-one is claiming that all preamps sound the same, and it's certainly the case that there are ergonomic differences between them. (Having done these tests, I'd have no complaints about the sound quality if I were using a Mackie mixer to record a piano, but I'd get pretty fed up with trying to match channel gains using its tiny trimpots.) It's likely that the differences between preamps will also become more apparent when they are deliberately 'pushed' into saturation, as some engineers like to do. We hope, though, that this test will have done something to restore a sense of perspective. Preamps are not the be-all and end-all of recording, and contrary to the advice that is sometimes dished out on Internet forums, those on a limited budget would often do better to spend their money on microphones or acoustic treatment, and to experiment with mic positioning, to achieve the sound they seek, than on expensive preamps. Don't be bullied into thinking that you can't make good recordings on affordable equipment. You can.

You all must have read the title over here and so what I want to ask is that if you have seen the lights around the guide button near the controller if they turn to green so what does that mean are there some problem with the batteries or something else, can you all please something about it. in case if they are some batteries issue then do I need to re charge them are the signals indicating that I need to re charge over here, please comment.

Although they were fun to try I probably won't get them again. I love how glittery they are and the colors are pretty. I have a gunmetal gray, light purple and silver. The glitter is actually throughout the product instead of just on the surface like Caboodle & Revlon products are. I have only wore them as eyeliner and brow highlighter to avoid any creasng problems. So far so good.

Screening for Hearing Problems
Screening for Hearing Problems
Topic Overview
Some hearing problems can delay your child's speech and language development. Early screening for hearing loss can help prevent many learning, social, and emotional problems that can be related to speech and language development. footnote 1
Call your doctor if at any time you suspect your child has a hearing problem, such as if your baby does not seem to respond to loud noises or your young child is not making sounds or talking at the expected ages.
The Canadian Paediatric Society recommends that all newborns be screened for hearing loss. footnote 2 Most provinces and territories in Canada offer newborn hearing tests for all babies born in hospitals. Talk to your doctor about whether your child has been or should be tested. Even if the newborn test did not show hearing loss, hearing problems could arise.
In most hearing tests, your child responds to how well he or she hears a series of tones or words (subjective testing). Hearing is also tested by examining your child's ears or by using an instrument to measure how the ears react to sound (objective testing). In objective testing, your child is not asked to respond to sounds.
Hearing tests may be a part of routine checkups.
Gradual hearing loss can affect people of all ages. You may not be aware of it, especially if it has happened over time. Your family members or friends may notice that you're having trouble understanding what others are saying. If you have concerns about your hearing, talk to your doctor during routine visits.
For more information, see the topics Hearing Tests and Hearing Loss.

I'm a FTM and just read that Lo will be getting the MMR/Varicella shots in December. I also read that the MMR is their first live virus shot. And My Postpartum Anxiety just kicked into overdrive even though it's a month and a half away =[
What are you guys doing? Are you going to have lo get all the shots, or delay them?
TIA, ladies.
Possible trigger?What are you doing for lo's first year shots, getting them all or delaying?
So by giving my LO only 2 vaccines at once, and coming back two months later for the other two, you really think I am putting my children and others at risk? That's a pretty ballsy statement to make.
--boys rule!--
--boys rule!--
I used to think I would never vaccinate my LO. I haven't had a vaccination since I was 18. I don't get the flu shot and can't remember the last time I had the flu.
That being said, we have chosen to vaccinate LO on schedule, as recommended. We may spread out the 12 month shots over a couple of weeks but that's about it.
When I took the time to research the actual diseases vaccines help to prevent and compare that to the possible reactions from a vaccine, we decided it was best for our family to vaccinate.
I, too, have done extensive research on vaccinations (way more than 10 months!!) and it is my own opinion that YES there are negative reactions from vaccinations (including death) but each parent must weigh the consequences for their family
My DH and I have never had a bad reaction to a vaccine and have had all our shots up until 18.
As adults, we make the decision to risk the disease versus the vaccination for ourselves. However I cannot forgive myself if my LO contracted a disease that could have been prevented.

I dont trust doctors & their big pharma funded education.
OT-I bet doctors wished their education was funded by someone! LOL
I wish I was still 38...
My doctor semi delays. Everything is on time, but not given all at once like many doctors do.
I to believe the benefits outweigh the risk. I trust what a college educated doctor says over reading something off the internet.

Pda smartphone bluetooth + sts
i was wondering, since the sts has bluetooth capabilities and can connect wirelessly with the phone and transfer contacts and whatnot, is there a way to wirelessly stream music via bluetooth from pda's (palm treos, blackberrys, etc) to the cadillac sts equipped w. nav/bluetooth?
Re: Pda smartphone bluetooth + sts
For example, the A2DP profile is designed for high quality stereo audio. Therefore wireless headphones support the A2DP profile, but not VDP profile which supports video transfers.
Telephones usually support the HSP (Headset) and/or HFP (Hands free) profiles for use with headsets. These support low quality mono audio best suited for phones and a microphone for 2-way communication.
Cadillac bluetooth (through 2010, as far as I know) only support the HSP/HFP profiles. So when your music player wants to stream music over Bluetooth, the STS doesn't know how to listen. This will probably change in future car models as Bluetooth becomes a more entrenched consumer technology, but updating existing installed systems - even though it's just a software update - is highly unlikely.
Re: Pda smartphone bluetooth + sts
wow very useful info thanks MacMuse
althought if the sts could listen to bluetooth streamed music it would be bad ass lol

Re: Pda smartphone bluetooth + sts
No entries since 2010. Are there any new advances? I have a 2009 STS4 and I'd love to stream audio!
Re: Pda smartphone bluetooth + sts
iSimple Audio Gateway with BT module... it adds A2DP but its probably not any more 'advanced' than the uPAC-STS + BlueStar was.

It allows track skip / pause but only displays "streaming" on the NAV unit yet is able to show caller info ...
- 05-12-15 12:33 PM #11Originally Posted by Ludacrisvp
Yup I have it too.
They make a new interface which is the blustar with the gateway all in one but they claim it does not work with the STS. I was asking as what you stated seemed to imply they were now making it with them combined for the STS as they do for other GM models.
Re: Pda smartphone bluetooth + sts
Mikey, this is what I installed in 05 STS4: http://www.isimplesolutions.com/talk....html#features I have 107.7 preset and my phone syncs with the transit vice the car. I can stream music and make/take calls (has its own mic I installed by the rear view). I nice feature is the song skip which is wired to a small switch (green phone icon in the link) which is mounted between my traction control and hazards buttons on the center console.
The only problem I had with install was the fact there is NO switched 12VDC present so it does not work when the car is off or in accessory.

I'm using WP2.1 . I'm trying to make sure that the text falls below the image rather than next to it. Irregardless if I align the image left, right, top or whatever, the text still flows next to it rather than below it.
What do I need to do to achieve this? is it a css issue? If so, what should I be looking to do?
Possible plugin? though, I prefer to avoid plugins .

Recent Synthetic Insulated Jacket Reviews
Columbia Men's Diamond 890 TurboDown Jacket
Warm, lightweight jacket that is great for both city and outdoor use. This is a great down jacket. A combination of warmth and breathability are what I look for because getting uncomfortably sweaty whilst hiking is never a good experience. The fit of the jacket is snug, but still able to accommodate extra layers underneath if they are needed. A good hood also compliments the fit, with it turning with your head without the need for cords. As with most down jackets it is not great in the rain. Saying… Full review
Haglofs Barrier Pro II Jacket
Lightweight and packable synthetic jacket that is warm for its weight. This jacket weighs just 323 grams (11.4oz). It is obviously not for very cold weather, but it is warm for its weight. On one occasion I was walking in a bitingly cold gale force wind. Where I live the temperature does not go below freezing even in winter, but with windchill taken into account it must have been close to freezing on that occasion. It was certainly cold enough to make me put on my gloves. Yet I felt neither the… Full review
Arc'teryx Men's Atom SL Hoody
Total agreement, guys. I bought the Carbon Copy color. I have the LT as well, also beloved. This extremely well thought out jacket is as light as a hummingbird's feather. The hood with toggle cord in the rear tightens down perfectly to shield your face with the lower face and throat lovingly protected as well by the full zip front. The tailored cuffs fit so well, great to have nothing to fasten there. The lightest weight insulation on the front and back is nearly imperceptible, but clearly does… Full review
Patagonia Men's DAS Parka
Very warm and comfortable. This synthetic coat makes winter easier. Hood and closures aren't perfect. I bought this 2015 model coat to wear so I could stay warm in camp and trailhead without thinking too much about layering and moisture control in temps around and below freezing. I'd looked into a couple of down parkas but didn't go with them due to the price, and I'm glad I didn't. The DAS Parka is not perfect but it performs its main function of keeping me warm very well. A huge bonus I hadn't… Full review
Patagonia Men's Nano Puff Hoody
This is one great hoody! Good alone till mid 30's, or even colder for active use! I am a Patagonia gear nut, and this is one nice piece. Lightweight, warm, and my go-to winter coat in Ohio. When it's really cold out, I wear it over a Better Sweater coat. I love it, great for fall fly fishing trips! Full review
Icebreaker Men's MerinoLOFT Stratus Long Sleeve Zip Hood
It's a technical hoodie. It's a wool jacket. It's a blend of both.

Mountain Hardwear Men's Thermostatic Hooded Jacket
Thinking we would have another very cold New England winter, and really liking my packable vest, I thought I should purchase a packable jacket, to provide an extra layer of warmth under my anorak. Well, we have had only a few below zero days, but have had enough variable and cold days to determine that I really do like this jacket...both as an insulating layer, and as a stand-alone light and comfortable parka. I purchased this on sale at a great markdown, so color selection was a bit limited, though… Full review
REI Women's Revelcloud Jacket
Great lightweight jacket for windy and chilly conditions. Packable and warm. I was in the market for a puffy type jacket and researched many options. I was leaning towards the Patagonia Nano Puff, but really didn't want to pay the higher price for the Patagonia. I came across the Revelcloud and it seemed to be pretty much the same jacket and was much less expensive. Since buying the jacket I have used it a lot. It makes a great outer layer over my fleece for cold and windy conditions. I have not… Full review
Patagonia Men's Nano Puff Jacket
This jacket is a solid micro puffy. The features are well designed. The Nano Puff Jacket used to be the standard for light micro puffy jackets. Now I think some other companies have caught up and exceeded this jacket. The Nano Puff Jacket is light, wind resistant, and warm enough to be a light belay jacket for rock climbing. It layers well. I wish the cut in the torso were more athletic. The size and shape of the pockets helps keep things inside. Full review

Two years ago, Amer opened a small electrical repair workshop. It has been a very good project, in large part because Amer has significant experience in this field.
Amer would like to improve his store. As a result, he is seeking a loan from FATEN. The loan proceeds would help him buy more repair parts for his workshop, which Amer believes will enable him to increase his productivity and also his income.

An insurance agent has voluntarily surrendered her license after being arrested for embezzlement.
The North Carolina Department of Insurance says Susan Glover of Wilson was arrested Monday for one count of embezzlement by an insurance agent. The state says between December 2009 and last October, Glover pocketed more than $11,000 in premiums she collected while working for a Nationwide Insurance office in Wilson.
Those affected policies were made whole by the agency. The 55-year-old Glover was given a $2,000 secured bond.

Video: Why Project PM Will Not Include Social Conservatives
I've decided to indulge in a little video blogging because my fingers are tired. Here, I explain the notable absence of social conservatives among those bloggers who have been announced thus far as participants in Project PM, which you may read about here. We're recruiting all manner of erudite, honest folks to serve on our governing/legislative network, which is separate from the blogger network and which will oversee our existing operations while also conceiving and implementing new methods by which to achieve our goals. We have about 50 participants so far, including about a dozen prominent bloggers with a combined readership of several hundred thousand folks a month – and we're growing rapidly. Click on the link above to find out why so many clever, influential people consider Project PM to be viable enough that they've dedicated their time and expertise to the effort.
Here's my statement regarding the absence of social/cultural/religious conservatives within the Project PM network, illustrated by a recent incident involving blogger Donald Douglas of American Power, whose dishonesty is illustrative of the mentality of his degenerate peers as a whole.
Update, April 25
Douglas says he missed my e-mails and couldn't find my corrections. He also thinks I look like Johnny Rotten, whom he claims is a social conservative based on the anti-abortion message of "Bodies." I don't know what to make of any of this so I'm going to go play outside.

In this week's "Monday's Magic Numbers" post, we will take a look at Ryan Tannehill's upside for next season. Last week, we noted how even though we don't think of Tannehill as a rushing quarterback, his legs make more of an impact than many think. He didn't tack on any extra yardage on the ground Sunday, but he proved once again that his development as a passer could put him in position for a genuine breakout campaign in 2014.

San Marcos' Bayshore Prep raises API score 128 points
Borevitz called the growth "phenomenal."
"When they've done so well, my gut feeling says leave them alone," she said.
The school board decided to approve the renewal of the school's charter last June before test scores were reported for 2006, district officials said, based on the fact the school had met all other requirements, including developing written curriculum for each core subject, aligning instructional materials with that curriculum, and setting goals for each grade level.
However, Lucia said last year's score was not a realistic indicator of the school's academic performance because Bayshore experienced enrollment irregularities in its first year.
The school opened its doors with about 30 students and ended the year with an enrollment of 221, with March as the largest enrollment month, she said. Many students who enrolled then did not have much time to prepare for the tests, which were administered in May, she said.
"You can't teach kids if they're not here," Lucia said. "We didn't have very much time with them at all."
Planning for success
Once the test scores came in last fall, Bayshore Prep implemented a school improvement plan that identified factors that influence student achievement, such as stable enrollment, parental involvement and assessment, Lucia said.
"It was our blueprint and we followed it to a T," she said. "We knew where we needed to go."
For example, Bayshore aimed to have 95 percent of its enrollment capacity met by Oct. 30, a benchmark that Lucia said helped made a huge difference in testing by allowing students more time to master statewide academic standards.
In addition, the school required students to take monthly assessments to continuously identify a student's individual areas of strengths and weaknesses and adjust their learning plan accordingly.
"When we are able to always assess where a kid is, we can always determine where they can go," she said.
Parents are also required to attend monthly consultation meetings to discuss their child's progress.
"So there's no way kids will fall through the cracks," said Lucia.
Lucia said she expects the school to meet the district's average when students are tested next spring.
"We're going to get there very quickly," she said. "We'll always be striving to get that 800 or higher (score)."

I'm using EditorTemplates for things like DateTime, Colors, etc. My forms, which may contain quite a bit of these templates, are primarily loaded via Ajax as a partial view.
Rather than have a bunch of jQuery initialization scripts at the bottom of each editor template, is there a conceptual way to do it only once per response? Lets say the you have 10 date time pickers, on one form, it would be really silly to pass down the same initialization code 10 times.
Placing the initialization script on the main form with the 10 date pickers would be efficient (certainly doesn't do much to keep code isolated to the datetime editor template), but then there's other cases where you may just want to have one date time picker on a different form or two or three, and now you're duplicating those scripts across multiple views in your code.
So how can I still leverage editor templates the right way here? I think I'm looking for something like --
EnsureThisScriptIsOutputOncePerThisResponse(<script>$('.datepicker').datepicker("insert lengthy config here");</script>)
to add to the bottom of the editor template that works with partial views rendered via AJAX.

Hierarchical adaptive regression kernels for regression with functional predictors
Permanent Linkhttp://hdl.handle.net/1813/21991

Woodard, Dawn B.; Crainiceanu, Ciprian; Ruppert, David
We propose a new method for regression using a parsimonious and scientifically interpretable representation of functional predictors. Our approach is designed for data that exhibit features such as spikes, dips, and plateaus whose frequency, location, size, and shape varies across subjects. We propose full Bayesian inference of the joint functional and exposure models, and give a method for efficient computation. We contrast our approach with existing state-of-the-art methods for regression with functional predictors, and show that our method is more effective and efficient for data that include features occurring at varying locations. We apply our methodology to a large and complex dataset from the Sleep Heart Health Study, in order to better understand the relationship between sleep characteristics and health outcomes.

This sounds little weird but actually all the entries in Iphone calendar are changed to double entries. It was happened when I updated the OS to 3.01 and as a result I have done hard reset to my phone. I was really unhappy after this. I had reset again and reloaded the calendar from itunes. All efforts fail. i was unable to point out whether is it is the new upgrade problem or reset? Is this issue can be fixed? If you have gone through similar problem and resolved it successfully then provide me some tips to correct my Iphone too. I will be very happy and appreciated.

One of the friend of mine and I both bought a new GA-X58A-UD3R motherboards and are suffering with the same issue, very long times to get to the BIOS screen over 25 seconds. Once the BIOS screen is looked the remainder of the start up until Windows 7x64 bit is up and execution is decent.
He has a ATI 5850 video and I have a 5770. I made some experiment quite a bit since my previous Q6600 on windows 7 64-bit on an ABIT IP35 Pro is close to twice as frequent booting just seconds to get to the BIOS screen and approximately 40 seconds total from button press until a usable Windows 7. It looking irritating for me that this latest system is so much slower during booting process. I have overclocked it to about 3.6 GHz. We both are working with Corsair H50 water coolers but I have suffering the same long boot times to the BIOS screen with no overclocking.

Episode 554: How The Burrito Became A Sandwich
We all know what a sandwich is. It's something delicious, slapped between two slices of bread.
But when it comes to taxes, nothing is simple.
Today on the show, what regulating sandwiches and all other takeout food tells us about taxation. And how something as simple as the sandwich sales tax ends up spawning a complicated list of definitions, interlocking exemptions and rules which somehow transform the burrito into a sandwich in the eyes of the law.

Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.
Loan tags help lenders find loans that match certain areas of interest. You can add up to 5 tags for this loan.

On my ride this weekend, the wind was whipping at 30+ mph. Due to the perversity of cycling (wherein 85% of any ride will be either uphill, into the wind or both), a lot of my ride was into the wind. So how do you all deal with the wind. Although I know that I will have to gear down and ride slower into the wind, it seems to be totally depressing to me to have to gind it out that way. I just cannot get to the point of emotionally accepting the slow pace, and end up ridding at very high heart rates for the entire time of th ride while going into the wind.
Any good tricks to get to just slow down and take it easy?

Considering how much people seem to like the air combat I feel like I must be doing something wrong. So far I have shot down 1 alien ship and lost like 5 aircraft. I didn't even notice the roll button until just recently. It helps, but I still struggle. I keep finding myself trailing closely behind an alien ship; too close to shoot it.
I turn left to engage, it turns right to try to circle around. I turn right to engage, it turns left to try to circle around. I literally went right off the grid trying to line up a shot. Finally, my ship ran out of gas and the game prompted me to return to base. When I clicked on ok the game froze and I had to close it.
Anyone have some tips? It can't be as hard as I'm making it. Is there more to it than just Space Bar = Pause, click Afterburner, Click Roll, click to select/de-select Armaments? Is there any way to slow down when you're tailing to create a firing lane? I tried to disengage (and then re-engage) to create a little distance, but I quickly found out that this doesn't work (as it did in Xcom).
