CLEVELAND (September 21, 2009) – The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum welcomes noted author and musician Jeff Carlisi for a special guest lecture and book signing at the Rock Hall on Saturday, October 3 at 3 p.m. in the Museum's Hall of Fame Theater.
Carlisi will give a lecture surrounding his new book, Jam! Amp Your Team, Rock Your Business. The book provides an insider's view into the music industry about the road to success and how to avoid pitfalls along the way. Each chapter examines an example key moment in the development of a band—formation, early success, internal crises, falling out of the spotlight—and demonstrates how executives can use those lessons to improve their own business. Carlisi also shares insight from musicians who have played with such artists as the Rolling Stones, the Eagles, the Allman Brothers, Night Ranger, and the bands of Eric Clapton, Billy Joel, Rod Stewart, Joan Jett and Sheryl Crow. Questions will be taken from the audience at the end of the lecture.
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum members and visitors are invited to attend this special lecture and book signing with Carlisi on Saturday, October 3 at 3 p.m. in the Museum's Hall of Fame Theater. Seating is limited. Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum members can RSVP on a first-come, first-served basis at http://www.rockhall.com/participate/jeffcarlisi. General public guests may RSVP on Thursday, September 24 at 10 a.m. using the same web address.
Jeff Carlisi was one of the founding members of the rock band .38 Special and wrote or co-wrote many of their biggest hits, including "Second Chance," "Caught Up In You" and "Hold On Loosely." The band sold more than 14 million records and enjoyed worldwide popular and critical acclaim. Carlisi left the band in 1997, and is now one of the co-founders of Camp Jam, where he trains young musicians, and Camp Jam, Inc., conducting team-building workshops for corporations. Earlier this year, Carlisi released his book Jam! Amp Your Team, Rock Your Business!, which shares a musician's insight into navigating the music industry. He is a judge for this year's FORTUNE Battle of the Corporate Bands.
The first music competition of its kind, the FORTUNE Battle of the Corporate Bands provides amateur, company-sponsored bands with the opportunity to step out of the conference room and celebrate their passion for making music. On October 3, 2009, eight qualifying bands from across the U.S. will take the stage at the Rock Hall at the ninth annual battle with the chance to earn the title of best corporate band.
FORTUNE Battle of the Corporate Bands is a partnership between NAMM (the trade association of the international music products industry), FORTUNE magazine, and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum. The national competition celebrates the positive effects of making music, which has been shown to increase employee morale and productivity in the workplace. The event is generously supported by Gibson Guitar.

Gold and Silver Shimmer
Glitzy Chocolate Puddings
4 oz. bittersweet chocolate
½ cup soft butter
4 eggs
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup flour
¼ teaspoon baking soda
pinch of salt
For the Glaze:
5 oz bittersweet chocolate
3 tablespoons butter
2 Butterfinger bars (2.1 oz), broken into shards
Preheat the oven to 350º F
Break up the chocolate and melt it with the butter in a bowl in the microwave or over a double boiler. Once it's melted, sit the bowl on a cold surface so that the chocolate cools.
Preferably in a freestanding mixer, beat the eggs and sugar until thick and pale and moussey, then gently fold in the flour, baking soda, and pinch of salt.
Fold in the slightly cooled chocolate and butter mixture and then divide among 8 ramekins or custard cups. Put in the oven to bake for 25 minutes.
Meanwhile, get on the glaze by melting the chocolate and butter in a microwave, then whisk to form a smooth glossy mixture and spoon this over the cooked puddings.
Decorate with Butterfinger rubble: I just put the bars in a freezer bag, set to with a rolling pin, and strew over the top.

GORE-TEX® Paclite®: Combining extreme breathability and durable wind and waterproof protection with minimum weight and pack volume, GORE-TEX® Paclite® shells use a specific membrane with a protective internal layer made of an oil-hating/carbon hybrid – eliminating the need for a separate lining, making this lighter, smaller, and easier to pack away.
GORE-TEX® Performance Shell: Specifically engineered to form an impenetrable barrier against wind and water while maintaining breathability, this waterproof material uses a two-layer construction for a lighter, softer feel – and in a three-layer construction for a more heavy-duty alternative.

I can vouch for the Michigan segment of that report, Mark. Below is someone's response to the statement that teachers receive too much money.
Teachers get paid too much...well, pay us what we are worth!
Are you sick of high paid teachers? Teachers hefty salaries are driving up taxes, and they only work 10 months a year! Its time we put things in perspective and pay them for what they do--baby sit! We can get that for less than minimum wage. Thats right. Lets give them $3 an hour and only the hours they worked; not any of that silly planning time, or any time they spend before or after school. That would be $19.50 a day (7:45 to 3:00 PM with 45 min off for lunch and planthat equals 6 1/2 hours). Each parent should pay $19.50 a day for these teachers to baby-sit their children. Now how many do they teach in day maybe 30? So thats $19.50 x 30 = $585 a day. However, remember they only work 180 days a year! I am not going to pay them for any vacations. Let's see . thats $585 X 180= $105,300 per year. (Hold on! My calculator needs new batteries). What about those special education teachers and the ones with Masters degrees? Well, we could pay them minimum wage ($7.75), and just to be fair, round it off to $8 an hour. That would be $8 X 6 1/2 hours X 30 children X 180 days = $280,800 per year. Wait a minutetheres something wrong here! There sure is! The average teachers salary (nation wide) is $50,000. $50,000/180 days = $277.77/per day/30 students=$9.25/6.5 hours = $1.42 per hour per student-a very inexpensive baby-sitter and they even EDUCATE your kids!) WHAT A DEAL!

I am a union-represented public employee in the great state of Wisconsin.
Needless to say, things have been just a little interesting around here.
While I haven't attended any of the protests in Madison, I was at a couple that were local (and I live in Governor Walker's hometown. I went to high school with his brother).
I'm politically a conservative independent, and I will admit (rather ashamedly) that I voted for Walker. But he screwed up big time here. He has made a lot of enemies where he once had allies, by what he did and continues to do with the "budget repair bill" and the union busting (and there is a lot more in that bill besides the union busting that's worth getting upset about).
But as the article said, we are not going away in Wisconsin. Yesterday was day 90, and there was another protest at the Capitol. I expect it will continue, until either the bill is stopped or Walker is recalled (which cannot happen until January of 2012).

Class warfare sure seems like a Republican value these days. Just watch their delight as they deny firefighters, police and teachers their collective bargaining rights, pensions and decent wages. These three groups define the middle class. If our middle class disappears what happens to America?
Perhaps the middle class is no longer needed. Our lives and our concerns are unimportant to the corporatists who control the money. There are other markets to plunder so we're nothing but liabilities.
Every benefit that has helped the middle class is being defamed. We're told Social Security and Medicare are going bankrupt. We're told that education costs too much and that possibly an education is no longer necessary for a better life.
Divide and conquer is still the most effective strategy. It's easy for those who make less than teachers, police and firefighters to be envious of their wages and well deserved benefits. If you're envious and want what they have, then become one. But don't deny them a decent life because they played by the rules.
While the middle class fights each other, we ignore those that are responsible. However, they do fear us as we greatly outnumber them and they do worry about a backlash. As long as the media toots their horn for them(and yes, the media is not liberal) and keeps us diverted, they will win.
Hopefully the middle class is waking up. Big money can buy government officials and the media. They can put a nice spin on their tactics We have to be vigilant otherwise our way of life will be gone.

I don't get it either. My feelings is that most people don't believe they can do anything about what is happening so they just accept it. Most folks are working more than one job or working so hard they don't have time to deal with issues. It's the folks that are retired or either have leisure time that are the activists who try to effect change. When every day folks get involved, it's usually because the issue is obviously something not in their best interest and then they do something about it. Otherwise, most folks are just oblivious to what is going on.
When the other side has the big bucks, their money talks and their way prevails. They can buy officials, hire attorneys, pr companies, etc. to find loopholes and put a positive spin on their actions. Unless us regular folks are willing to fight for our rights, we are going to be screwed.

Yergler Wins Silver in NCAA Epee, @TigerFencing Stands Second
Once the pairings for the medal round in the NCAA epee championship were set, Princeton knew it would have someone in the final bout for the national title.
After 23 pool bouts apiece, the Princeton duo of Jonathan Yergler, the defending NCAA champion, and senior classmate Edward Kelley finished in a position to fence each other for a spot in the finals. Yergler won that one 15-13.
The next one, however, didn't lead to a second straight NCAA title. Canevari pulled away from an 8-all tie and defeated Yergler 15-9 to celebrate the honor that Yergler won last year, then the first time since 2001 that a Princeton fencer won a national title.
Junior saberist Robert Stone (seventh), freshman foilist Michael Dudey (fifth), Kelley and Yergler each received All-America honors, while junior saberist Philip Dershwitz (14th) and freshman foilist Rodney Chen (15th) just missed out on making the top-12 cutoff for All-America.
It is the fourth All-America honor for Yergler, who joins Soren Thompson '05 as the only Princeton epeeists to win four-time All-America honors. Foilist Alexander Mills '12 and saberist Max Pekarev '99 are the only other Princeton fencers in the other two weapons to do so. Yergler finished seventh as a freshman before taking runner-up honors as a sophomore and winning it all as a junior.
The All-America honor is Kelley's second, following up an eighth-place finish a year ago, and the first for Dudey and Stone.
As a team, Princeton stands in good position to compete for the top spot heading into the women's competition. The Tigers are second behind Penn State, 94 wins to 83 wins, and six wins ahead of third-place Notre Dame's 77 wins. Rounding out the top 10 are Harvard (75), Ohio State (70), Penn (66), St. John's (65), Stanford (64), Columbia (56) and Brown (23).
The advantage Princeton has heading into the women's competition, in addition to the strength of its four-time consecutive Ivy League champion squad, is that Princeton has six women in the competition to Penn State's five. Each fencer can account for up to 23 wins for his or her team, though a team can only get 45 victories in a weapon as a school's two fencers have to compete against each other. Having that advantage, the Tigers will have to make the most of it on the strip in order to come away with the top spot.
The only teams with the full complement of six women's fencers are Columbia (56 wins), Notre Dame (77 wins), Ohio State (70 wins), St. John's (65 wins), and Princeton (83 wins). It's not unprecendented for a team to win without qualifying the maximum, but it is certainly an advantage for those who get all 12 total bids.
Individually, the Princetonian who had the most pool-bout victories, Dudey, just missed out on fencing for a medal. Dudey, Penn State's David Willette and Stanford's Alex Massialas all had 18 wins, but the other two fencers outdid Dudey in margin of victory throughout their 23 bouts. Dudey out-touched his foes 38 times to 52 for Willette and 47 for Massialas.
Dudey's classmate and fellow foilist, Chen, finished with nine wins for Princeton's cause. In the saber, Stone won 15 bouts and was one short of making the cutoff for the medal round, as Penn State's Shaul Gordon, the fourth seed entering the medal round, won 16 bouts. Dershwitz, also a junior saberist, won 10 bouts. Kelley won 16 epee pool bouts and Yergler won 15 as both made the medal round in their weapon.
The women wil hit the strips for a 10:30 a.m. ET start Saturday.

City on Pellegrini:
Born in Santiago to Italian parents, Manuel Luis Pellegrini Ripamonti is something of a rarity in the footballing fraternity having achieved a university degree in Civil Engineering at the Pontifical Catholic University in Santiago.
He achieved this qualification while still on the books of Universidad Chile, the only team the cultured centre-back ever played for in his 13-year playing career.
Manuel made 451 appearances between 1973 and 1986 for his hometown club.
He also represented his country as a player on 28 occasions before retiring to concentrate on coaching, soon gaining the nickname "the Engineer" to reflect his academic interests and progressive footballing outlook.
Pellegrini's early coaching career is characterised by short tenures across South America, taking his first job at Universidad Chile at the age of 33.
Unfortunately, his first season in charge ended in relegation but the young manager continued to learn his craft with a technical role at the Chilean FA where he also oversaw the under-20 team.
Modest success followed in subsequent year-long spells at Palestino and O'Higgins in the early nineties but Manuel would first gain true notoriety across the continent for his two year reign at six-time Chilean champions, Universidad Catolica.
Charged with developing two of his nation's most promising youngsters in Alberto Acosta and Nestor Gorosito, Pellegrini led the team to consecutive second place finishes in the Primera Division, as well and claimed his first piece of silverware, the Copa Interamericana in 1994.
He followed this success with a Copa Chile title the following year.
This first taste of success was enough to catch the eye of LDU Quito in Ecuador, who appointed Pellegrini as coach in 1998, a move which was instantly rewarded with Serie A triumph in his maiden campaign.
As well as winning this first league title, LDU Quito's excellent performances in the continent's premier club competition, the Copa Libertadores convinced Pablo Zabaleta's San Lorenzo to bring the manager to San Lorenzo in 2001.
Pablo was still in the youth team when Pellegrini led Los Cuervos to the 2001 Clausura title and the Copa Mercosur (South America's UEFA Cup equivalent) in his only year in charge.
Argentine giants River Plate were next to come calling in 2002 and Pellegrini brought immediate success once more in the shape of a Clausura title with a squad that included Javier Mascherano, Andres D'Alessandro and Fernando Cavenaghi.
Pellegrini joined a small and exclusive list of South American coaches to be given jobs in European football when he took the managerial reigns at Villarreal in 2004.
What Manuel achieved in a five-year spell at the Castellon club has become the stuff of Spanish footballing legend, building this small club up into a Champions League force – a remarkable achievement for a city with a population of just 51,000.
Under the Chilean, 'the Yellow Submarine' became the first Champions League debutants to reach the semi-finals of the competition and went on to consistently disrupt the El Clasico duopoly on one of La Liga's tightest budgets.
Villarreal finished as high as second place in La Liga, enough to cement Manuel's reputation as one of the most talented coaches in the game.
Real Madrid was the next project for Pellegrini in June 2009 and although he only lasted one season at the Santiago Bernabeu, he still broke the points record for the club in a single season with 96, only missing out on the title to Barcelona by three points.
Pellegrini left the post with the highest win percentage of any coach to ever manage a full season at the nine-time European champions.
Because of this incredible record, there was no shortage of suitors in for Pellegrini's services and he opted to stay in La Liga with Malaga.
His impact was again immediate as he guide Los Boquerones to a fourth place finish in his first season in charge before masterminding their run to last season's Champions League quarter-finals.
Malaga were desperately unlucky to be eliminated at that stage courtesy of two stoppage time goals from eventual finalists Borussia Dortmund but they recovered domestically to table a respectable sixth place finish in Pellegrini's final year in charge.
Manuel celebrated his first season in charge of City by winning the Capital One Cup and the Premier League to make the most successful start to a managerial campaign in the Club's history.

VAMPIRE WEEKEND, RED BUTTE GARDEN, Tuesday, May 21, 7 p.m., Sold Out
Despite the fact that Vampire Weekend's 2010 sophomore album Contra debuted at No. 1 on Billboard's album-sales charts, it still seemed like the band was perhaps a one-tricky pony, even though that trick was a good one--creating catchy, world beat-influenced pop-rock in excellent three-minute nuggets. On the band's new release, Modern Vampires of the City, the quartet has taken a significant leap forward, lyrically and musically. While there is still the joyful, jagged edge that is familiar from the band's first two albums, there's something darker at work now, and it comes through in some foreboding new songs. It should be a real treat to hear the band explore their new-found diversity at the season opener of Red Butte Garden's summer concert series. The High Highs open the show.

Wilmington City Council Concludes Its Formal Budget Hearings
Posted on 05/01/2013 6:45 pm
Wilmington City Council has concluded a series of seven public hearings to review the Fiscal Year 2014 City Budget proposal presented in March by Mayor Dennis Williams. The final hearing this evening focused on the City's Water/Sewer Fund. The Williams Administration has proposed a 12% water/sewer rate increase for Fiscal Year 2014 which begins on July 1, 2013.
Council President Theo Gregory said Council will take the next few days to review the information it received from the Administration during the budget hearings and determine its position on a number of issues including whether the size of the proposed water/sewer increase is appropriate.
Council Finance Committee Chair Charles "Bud" Freel said tonight he also wants greater public accountability of the City's Water and Sewer Fund. Freel said that can be achieved through the establishment of separate budget accounts for water, sewer, stormwater, and the Fund's reserve account. The reserve account represents available cash above and beyond what is projected to be needed for the normal operations of the Water/Sewer Fund that can be used by the City to cover unanticipated or emergency water or sewer problems.
Freel said because citizens are continuously asked to pay rate increases to support expenditures for producing potable water and providing sewer and stormwater runoff services, as well as to bolster the reserve account, they and the Council should be better able to track the dollars in each section of the Water/Sewer Fund. Freel said this would include tracking the available cash on hand for any expenditure that may arise. The Finance Chair said he wants the City to move in the direction of a completely stand-alone Water/Sewer Fund with separate accounting for staff, expenditures and cash-on-hand in the reserve account which would provide assurances that water/sewer funds are not being comingled in some way with the General Operating Budget.
Gregory also said chief among his budget concerns is the Administration's intention to use money from the City's Economic Development Strategic Fund and the Housing Strategic Fund to balance the FY 2014 budget. He said these accounts have been used effectively since they were created several years ago to promote business growth, create jobs and improve City neighborhoods. The President said he doesn't like the fact that the Administration is now proposing to deplete these funds and divert attention from important issues like jobs and neighborhood growth.
Council Finance Chair Charles "Bud" Freel expressed a similar concern tonight saying Council will look for alternative ways to balance the budget so that money earmarked to promote jobs and housing remains intact. Freel said the City should be finding ways to increase or at least stabilize these accounts instead of decreasing funding. Freel noted that while these funds have been used in previous years to balance the budget or fund other programs, such actions were taken in conjunction with other budget reduction measures including the elimination of vacant positions and were never adopted as a stand-alone budget balancing maneuver.
Also troubling to the Finance Chair and Council President is the Mayor's proposal to provide salary increases for a few of his appointees who were hired in January. Both officials said that decision was inappropriate for a variety of reasons including the fact that most City employees have gone four years without a formal pay increase.
As for the Administration's plan to reduce gun violence and improve public safety, President Gregory said he had hoped to hear a more detailed presentation or plan from the Administration during the hearings. The Council President also expressed concern about the Fire Department's presentation which included a discussion about the Department's revision of the rolling bypass system which originally involved removing one piece of fire equipment from service each day to reduce overtime costs for the Department without compromising the safety of the public or firefighters.
The Council President said he heard no rationale as to why the Department has chosen to adopt a new system that removes a piece of equipment from service for approximately only 15 days each month which, he said, will increase overtime costs to the City. Gregory said the Council will also attempt to engage the Administration in a discussion about the recommendations contained in the Berkshire Report—a study conducted in 2012 which recommended several ways to reduce costs and improve the management of the Fire Department. Absent a more fully explained policing plan and fire safety discussion, Gregory said Council's Public Safety Committee will continue to monitor, assess and judge the Administration's public safety initiatives going forward.
Council President Gregory said he is now eager to continue his ongoing budget discussions with Members of Council and would expect the Legislative Branch to have more to say in the next week or so about any conclusions it has reached with respect to moving toward a final budget plan.
The Council President and Finance Chair Freel each made a statement tonight to mark the conclusion of the series of Council budget hearings. Those statements are included as part of this news release.
Statement by Council President Theo Gregory:
"The budget hearings were probing as they should be, but were conducted professionally and courteously. The information gleaned from the breadth of issues we discussed affecting City programs and services was invaluable. Council's budget deliberations will now move forward. Our decisions concerning the Administration's budget proposal will have a direct bearing on citizens and businesses as well as our neighborhoods and communities. We do not take this task lightly. While we are charged with reviewing each aspect of government operations for FY 2014, we also have the responsibility to determine how a single year budget plan affects the City's fiscal health in the years ahead. Council Finance Chair Charles "Bud" Freel has once again convened a very productive series of budget hearings that have helped City Council Members and all of our citizens understand the contents of the Administration's FY 2014 budget proposal. The hearings were made even more productive by the large number of Council Members who participated regularly, even though as part-time legislators, many are kept busy by other work-related responsibilities. I could not be happier with the high level of participation this year by my Council colleagues and I thank them as we move forward with our continuing budget discussions. When necessary we will consult with the Administration, but we are focused now on moving this budget into final form for a vote scheduled for May 16."
Statement by City Council Finance Committee Chair Charles "Bud" Freel:
"I too thank my Council colleagues for their interest and participation in the budget process which is much appreciated. Now, we will take our collective knowledge and make some budget decisions, some of which could be difficult. Once Council votes its approval of a budget in late May, we are essentially signing off on the use of taxpayer dollars to fund Departmental staff, programs and services for the coming fiscal year. While it falls to the Administration to efficiently manage the affairs of City government, Council's role in monitoring the budget does not end with an up or down vote in a few weeks, but continues throughout the year. Because of Council's role in this process, Council President Gregory and I are looking forward to continuing our ongoing budget discussions with our Council colleagues to determine our course of action with respect to this budget proposal. As we bring the formal hearings to a close, I extend my thanks to the Directors and Managers of the City Departments who have appeared before this committee over the past few weeks as well as to the staff from the Office of Management and Budget for their role in assembling the budget. City Council's role in reviewing the budget and providing the proper checks and balances on the Administration's proposal would not have been possible without the extensive work of our Council staff and in particular our Deputy Chief of Staff Marchelle Basnight who involves herself with the budget process in a very responsible way throughout the year. Finally, my thanks to our City employees and to all of the citizens of Wilmington who have been with us for these proceedings either in-person in Council Chambers, via television on WITN, Channel 22 or via the Internet at WITN22.org. This concludes the formal City Council budget hearings for the FY 2014 budget."

I've been hunting around the job market for a little bit now and I've been shocked by some of the things I'm seeing. Software developers who make themselves more "known" online are getting far more career opportunities and far better positions than people competing against them who are not as well "known" online.
After doing some reading on the subject I realized that I actually shouldn't be so shocked by this. We are living in the most fast-paced era of mankind and employers want to be able to learn as much as they can about a potential employee before they hire them. The easier we as software developers make it for us to be found the better our chances of landing that dream job become. In some cases, employers are even finding us in favor of traditionally choosing to let us apply to them.
So what are some of the best ways for me as a software developer to increase my online presence? I already hang around Stack Exchange sites such as Programmers and Stack Overflow increasing my rep whenever I can. I maintain many open source projects as both a committer and project owner on Google Code and Github. I have a Twitter account, a website, and a blog. What else can I do to give myself a bigger online presence?
Additionally, are there any good do's and don'ts for handling your web presence? Bashing your employer is an obvious don't but I'm interested in everything from the most basic to the most subtle suggestions to give myself a more appealing online presence.

For the Stash Trad bee, Felicity asked for colorful churn dash blocks. This is the bee where we make traditional blocks from our own scraps and stash, so I really busted out the color for this one. Churn dash blocks are so easy to make, very beginner-friendly, so if you're looking for something like that I highly recommend it.
Milwaukee Modern Quilt Guild bee, Corinne asked for the Planetarium block from Elizabeth Hartman's Practical Guide to Patchwork. Corinne gave us some lovely Art Gallery prints to work with, and asked for borders in bright solids. Another fun one!
And speaking of Art Gallery, I owe you all a winner of the Rhapsodia bundle from my Fat Quarter Gang post. The winner is #47, Wendy, who said: "Oooh, I would love to win. Going to look at the tutorial now. Thanks!" Wendy, I've sent you an email. And if any of you missed my Ruffled Zipper Pouch tutorial, go check it out!

Reviews for New England Clam Chowder
"I didn't care for the spices added to this recipe. I'll go back to my old recipe."
"My husband and son both said this was a restaurant-quailty chowder! It is absolutely delicious. I was looking for a little thicker soup (just my preference), so instead of milk, I used half-and-half. And I added a fourth can of clams! :)One great thing about this recipe: the ease!"
"I liked the flavor of this soup. Next time I will cook the potatoes a bit with the onion and celery to add a bit more flavor and a bit more cream."
"This recipe is fabulous!"
"Due to a previous comment, I used half of the thyme, but still did not care for the flavor. I wanted mine thick and creamy, so I used a quart of half and half and a quart of whole milk. I was pleased with the results. I added 2 minced garlic cloves and finely diced celery with the onions. I omitted the celery salt and sage. Overall, I was satisfied with my chowder, but it just wasn't my favorite."

ATLANTA—Physicians and engineers within a new center devoted to pediatric nanomedicine will develop targeted, molecular-sized nanoparticles as part of a unique approach to treating pediatric diseases. Specific focus areas will include pediatric heart disease and thrombosis, infectious diseases, cancer, sickle cell disease and cystic fibrosis. The Center for Pediatric Nanomedicine (CPN) is the first of its kind in the world.
Nanomedicine involves the development of engineered nanoscale structures and devices for better diagnostics and highly specific medical interventions to treat diseases and repair damaged tissues. One nanometer is one billionth of a meter, and the nanoscale is typically on the order of 1-100 nanometers.
Directed by Gang Bao, PhD, the center will involve researchers from Emory University, the Georgia Institute of Technology and Children's Healthcare of Atlanta. Bao is the Robert A. Milton Professor of Biomedical Engineering in the Wallace H. Coulter Department of Biomedical Engineering at Georgia Tech and Emory University.
"Because nano-scale structures are compatible in size to biomolecules, nanomedicine provides unprecedented opportunities for achieving better control of biological processes and drastic improvements in disease detection, therapy and prevention," says Bao.
The CPN is part of the Emory-Children's Pediatric Research Center led by the two institutions, including partnerships with Georgia Institute of Technology and Morehouse School of Medicine. With the leadership of Paul Spearman, MD, Children's chief research officer and vice chair for research in the Emory University Department of Pediatrics, 14 key priority centers have been identified. These are hematology and oncology; immunology and vaccines; transplant immunology and immune therapeutics; pediatric healthcare technology innovation; cystic fibrosis; developmental lung biology; endothelial biology; cardiovascular biology; drug discovery; autism; neurosciences; nanomedicine; outcomes research and public health; and clinical and translational research.
Emory and Georgia Tech already have had significant and successful research partnerships in nanomedicine funded by the National Institutes of Health. These have included nanotechnology center of excellence for the detection and treatment of cardiovascular disease, the development of personalized and predictive oncology, and the development of engineered protein machines for treating single-gene disorders.
"Nanotechnology can be applied to many diseases, and the application of nanotechnology could have a profound impact on improving children's health," says Bao.
Current centers located in the joint Georgia Tech-Emory biomedical engineering department include the Center for Translational Cardiovascular Nanomedicine (funded by a $14.6 million, five-year grant from NHLBI/NIH) and the Nanomedicine Center for Nucleoprotein Machines (funded by a $16.1 million, five-year grant from NIH).
The discoveries made in these centers also will be applied to research in pediatric diseases. For example, scientists in the center for nucleoprotein machines are focused on developing a technology to correct single-gene defects that lead to human disease. They hope to use this approach to treat and eventually cure sickle cell disease, first focusing on curing a mouse model of sickle cell. The new technology would then be applied to human sickle cell patients.
"Nanomedicine is expected to dramatically exceed what has occurred in the field thus far, and our belief is that it will revolutionize medicine," says Bao. "We plan to make this new pediatric nanomedicine center a leader in applying these unique discoveries to treating and curing children's diseases."
Other investigators in the center from the biomedical engineering department at Georgia Tech and Emory include Tom Barker, PhD, Ravi Bellamkonda, PhD, Barbara Boyan, PhD, Michael Davis, PhD, Wilbur Lam, MD/PhD, Niren Murthy, PhD, Shuming Nie, PhD, and Phil Santangelo, PhD.

On a recent trip to CVS, I stumbled across a sale on all the Godiva chocolate bars (lucky me). Godiva has been doing a lot to make chocolate bars with new flavors, especially ones that hit up on the flavor trends of right now. The other flavors in this line include salted caramel (milk and dark), hazelnut, almond, vanilla bean and strawberry. I only saw a few of the flavors at CVS, but since the deal was a two for $4 deal, I decided to get this and the salt caramel bar.
Firstly, I have to commend Godiva for making a package that has really nice design. The photography of the chocolate with the flavor elements is really beautiful and appealing. Inside the hard paper exterior, the chocolate is beautifully protected in a gold foil wrapper.
The chocolate smells sweet with heavy notes of caramel and cream. The color is a nice middle brown with a subtle sheen. The back of the bar you can see little bums from the fruit pieces.
The chocolate is pretty sweet with nice notes cream, caramel and some cocoa. It's a very sweet milk chocolate, but it's tasty. The fruit pieces are just texture elements at first, you don't really taste them right away. Once most of the chocolate has mostly melted away, then you ca taste the flavor of the fruit. I don't really taste the tangerine or blueberry, but the mango bits really stand out. They're flavorful and juicy, and the pieces easily get stuck in your teeth. The ripe flavor blends nicely with the milk chocolate and gives it a very exotic flavor.
This bar is tasty, more so than I thought. If you're looking for something a little more unique than your traditional chocolate bar flavors, this bar would be good for you. Especially since you tend to see this fruit flavors blended for dark chocolate, so this is good for milk chocolate lovers. Godvia is doing a pretty good job with their new flavor line, I like where this is going.

14 year old Longmont cyclist is World Champion
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
Collin Hudson wins UCI BMX World Championships in Copenhagen, Denmark over the weekend
From the Times Call
For Longmont's Collin Hudson, climbing to the top step of the winner's podium never gets old.
Race after race, year after year, on one side of the world and the other, the 14-year-old BMX champion continues to rise above his competition. Hudson's latest conquest came over the weekend at the UCI BMX World Championships in Copenhagen, Denmark, where he won his competitive age division.
He entered as the reigning title holder in the 13-year-old division and proved that he is only getting better with age.
"As I get older it gets a lot harder," Hudson said Wednesday. "Last year, there were only two or three fast European riders, but this year there were at least 12 kids that I think could have won. So it gets more exciting, more meaningful, as I get older."Hudson, who rides for Crupi, started winning state championships right when he first began competing at age 7. He won a regional title before moving into the expert class a few years later and won his first national title in 2008. The national victories continued to pile up, culminating in his first world title last year in South Africa.
That was no fluke.
Accordingly, Hudson, who will be a freshman at Niwot High School this fall, is planning his future around BMX racing. The sport already has taken him around the globe; no telling where he will go next.

Gov. Gary Herbert and Salt Lake City Mayor Ralph Becker said on Monday the state and the capital city are ready to host another Winter Olympics.
If that happens, perhaps in 2026, the Park City area would play a critical role in a bid. One of the members of the Utah Olympic Exploratory Committee said in an interview Park City and the surrounding area could be more important to another Olympics than it was when it hosted upward of half of the events in the Winter Olympics in 2002.
Colin Hilton, who serves on the exploratory committee and was a key Olympic organizer in 2002, said some of the sports that were added to the Winter Olympic program after 2002 or are scheduled to be in coming Olympics could be staged in the Park City area. He pointed to sports like slopestyle skiing and snowboarding, ski cross, snowboard cross and the skier halfpipe.
Hilton said Park City Mountain Resort, Deer Valley Resort and Canyons told the exploratory committee there is interest in hosting events in an Olympics. PCMR and Deer Valley were important venues in 2002. Canyons did not host Olympic competitions a decade ago, but some of the peripheral activities were there. The Utah Olympic Park would again be the location of the ski jumping and sliding sports.
"Park City's involvement will always be a large part of the planning efforts," Hilton said.
Hilton managed the Park City-area venues for the Salt Lake Organizing Committee in 2002.
The United States Olympic Committee will decide later whether it will submit an American city as a candidate for the Games in 2026 or a later one. Salt Lake City would launch a bid to become the nation's candidate city at that time. It is not certain what other cities would compete to become the American choice.
Salt Lake City's bid needs to first be chosen by the United States Olympic Committee. The International Olympic Committee will later make its selection as the host. That decision is expected in 2019. Hilton said it will likely be 2015 or 2016 before Olympic bid-related work starts to increase significantly.
"We think a Winter Olympic Games bid is a very smart, low risk, responsible choice," Hilton said.
He noted the competition venues from 2002 remain heavily used and there is support from the public and private sectors. The state, he said, continued to advance winter sports in the post-Olympic era, hosting World Cup competitions and expanding training opportunities.
Park City Councilman Andy Beerman, who monitored some of the discussions on behalf of City Hall, said in an interview there would need to be talks between Park City leaders and the community about another bid. He said it seems Parkites are interested in hosting another Olympics and winter sports are "in our DNA."
"Park City is certainly ready and able," he said, adding, "We could pull it off again."
The Utah Olympic Exploratory Committee in October unanimously recommended Salt Lake City bid for the Olympics in 2026 if the United States Olympic Committee pursues those Games. The October report made numerous references to the Park City area and the role it could play in another Olympics.
In a prepared statement released on Monday, Gov. Gary Herbert called the state "the best choice" to host another Olympics in the United States.
"We want the USOC to know Utah is not only ready, willing, and capable, but that we are the best choice," Herbert said. "Utah has become the winter sports capital of the USA. By hosting another Winter Games, our commitment to support ongoing Olympic movement initiatives will only be strengthened."

I Love Plug-ins!
Guest Contribution by Tom Todia
I love Plug-Ins! There, I feel much better now. Since January is the month of the plug-in here at Designing Sound, I thought this was a great opportunity to share one of my new favorites with you.
This plug-in does exactly what its name states but it has a twist that I absolutely love. If you have not yet used it then allow me to introduce you to the "Frequency Shifter". You will find this little gem as part of the AIR bundle standard with Pro Tools 8 and higher.
I swim in the dark and mysterious water that is game audio. This means that when I produce a sound effect I am often tasked with creating at least half a dozen variations of it. Why isn't one sound variation enough you ask? Well if you have ever played a Sci-Fi style video game, then you know how often you are likely to hear the same laser gun being fired. Audible repetition is something we try our best to avoid, lest the illusion of the game world be broken. So in that design spirit, let me show you how easily you can create multiple variations of a laser gun with this plug-in without automating a single parameter.Read More

Let's Talk About NFP!
By Rebecca Teti
Wednesdays: Natural Family Planning
(Join each day's Coffee Talk discussion: Mon: Parenting; Tues: Open Forum; Wed: NFP; Thu: Marriage; Fri: Education; Sat/Sun: Changing Roles)
This weekly thread is a place where you can share your struggles, triumphs, links, resources, concerns, and questions about all things related to Natural Family Planning.
A friend asked me for articles that explain the spiritual or religious dimension of NFP. She is non-Catholic and using it because it's natural and is now intrigued. There's Humanae Vitae itself of course, but do you have popular articles you learned from or that you think are especially well expressed?
Transferring Kathleen's question from yesterday here: Maybe I should wait for NFP day, but in case I don't get back here tomorrow - how much effect can I expect the weather to have on my temperatures? I've been attributing a string of unusually high temperatures to the fact that it's been in in the 90s for the past 2 weeks (and we don't have air conditioning). Is that valid? My temps have dropped the past 2 days, despite the temperature outside remaining high, so I'm wondering if maybe I was wrong about that? Or could my body just be adjusting to the summer heat?
Rebecca, Have you searched the websites of the Couple to Couple League or One More Soul? Both have some great resources on this topic & might have something that appeals to your friend from a natural & spiritual (though not specifically Catholic) approach. Praying that she is open to seeing the beauty of God's design in the human body & for marriage as expressed by the Church through her seeking.
Hi Kathleen, I'd definitely take the heat into account for the rising temps - happened to me a couple of years ago when the heat just got too much.
To follow up on Patricia's suggestions, I was going to offer two specific titles: From One More Soul, a cd "Prove it, God...And He Did!" by Patty Schneier; and from Couple to Couple League--(although others may carry it as well) Janet Smith's "Contraception--Why Not". I think that may be in more than one format, but I'm not positive. Also, at www.catholicmom.com there is a whole section of archived nfp articles by Sara Fox Peterson under women/health/nfp. Many of those also bring in the spiritual or religious dimension as well.
Is there NTF for women who have stopped having their menstral cycle?
Do you mean for a woman who has entered menopause, or for a woman with irregular cycles, but still within the time-frame of normal fertility? Since menopause is associated with the bodily changes that lead to a loss of fertility as we age, I suppose NFP at this point would be more for keeping track of bodily changes as an eye to health, versus trying to conceive or space the birth of children.
For women who have entered menopause. Can one get pregnant then?
Rebecca, I find the posts on Iusenfp.com to be very comprehensive regardless of religious affiliation.
Danielle M-- I just read the Open Forum craziness from yesterday, and I'm glad you're still posting!
Hello! I think that electric car will safe our World. Because living in a big city with exhaus is terrible. Most of all i like Chevrolet. This car most ergonomic and cool))) Thanks for sharing this excellent post. Don't forget that you can order professional essay from www.custom-paper-writing.org at any suitable time!

Sticking to a budget is definitely not the most exciting part of planning a wedding and the idea of cutting corners on your special day can be disappointing. But with a little organization and self-control, sticking to a plan doesn't have to be constricting.
In fact, planning an event that fits within your means and still exceeds your expectations is completely doable with a little research!
To stick to a budget and create an event that doesn't leave you seeing red here are a few tips.
Prioritize: Create a list of the most important aspects of your wedding day. Whether it is food, location, music or ambiance, figuring out how you want to divvy up your funds will help you determine which vendors to contact and what aspect you what to focus on the most.
Be Flexible: Scheduling your wedding on a Friday, Sunday or during off-season can save you up to $5,000 depending on your venue and location. Plus having your wedding on a day besides Saturday will lower the cost of many of your other vendors as well. If you are willing to switch your wedding date, it's a great option to explore. I recently decided to have my wedding on a Friday and have been blown away with the savings!
Negotiate: From flowers to an extra hour of premium alcohol, If you are about to sign a contract, don't be afraid to ask for what you want. You'll be surprised at what a vendor will throw in especially when you are about to sign on the dotted line. To increase your negotiating power research, ask politely but firmly and practice!
Have Fun: Budgeting doesn't have to be stressful and with a little research the perfect wedding can be created without breaking the bank. For more help creating a wedding budget check out The Knot, About Weddings and Real Simple
My day job has allowed me to plan and attend some of the swankiest affairs around town so when tables were turned and my event was on the line only the best would suffice. But with only a shoestring budget to work with and Veuve Clicquot taste, planning a wedding is a little more daunting than I ever imaged.

We asked the contributors to our article "Words of wisdom" to share with us some of the most memorable births they've attended.
Today, Karen Hinkle, CM, owner of Mountain Midwifery Services in Elizabethton, TN shares the three of her most remembered experiences. She has attended nearly 700 births.
There have been so many stories over the years—and I save every chart for every pregnancy, labor, birth and postpartum. I will tell you that three events always come to mind when I am asked to share an experience or two that stands out.
The first was the day and night that I caught three babies, attending three different women. I was called out to a client who lived in the suburbs of a major metropolitan area on the day of that year's NCAA basketball championships and both teams were from the area. Of course the game was to take place that evening, but the traffic was horrible and I got a police escort when I started driving on the shoulder in the traffic jam. After the birth and the normal three or so hours I spend at the home postpartum, I was called to the inner city to a single teenager in labor. It was nightfall by this time and my partner met me at her home. I have found that teenagers give birth easily and the birth was rather fast and all went smoothly. Then I was called to a labor about two hours away in a very rural area. My partner stayed behind to tend to the newly delivered mother/baby with postpartum and breastfeeding care while I sped to a family having their seventh child. Luckily, I stress to women that they should notify me as soon as they think anything is signaling the start of labor, especially if the mother has had several babies already. It was before midnight when I arrived and three hours later, baby number three was born. I was very tired, of course, and could not wait to get to my home, which I did without incident or interruption by sunrise.
The second story involves a woman who was expecting her fourth baby. I was still an apprentice at the time, having just finished midwifery school. The midwife I was apprenticing with was several hours away and busy with a birth when this woman called. Another apprentice and I arrived at the woman's home to find her reading a magazine with her head under a hair dryer similar to those used in hair salons with no noticable discomfort. Thinking surely she was in early, early labor, we started to examine her for labor progress (she is still sitting w/ her head under the hair dryer) and found that the baby was crowning. Sometimes there is no pain in labor!
The third is the story of an older woman who was pregnant with her first child, planning a homebirth. An alphafetoprotein test was positive for an anencephalic baby. The mother continued with her plans for a homebirth and struggled with the medical providers about her decision. We joined her through much counseling during the pregnancy. As labor progressed and she felt an urge to push, an internal exam revealed a perfectly normal fetal skull and she soon delivered a perfectly normal baby girl. Every emotion possible filled the birthing room as this mom, expecting to give birth to a baby who would die within days, had a beautiful and healthy newborn! Sometimes the tests are wrong. (Note: there have been several instances when a sonogram interpretation of the sex of the fetus has been wrong, too!)
Expect the unexpected—that is the beauty of life !

Results tagged ' Carlos Quentin '
Tonight, Francisco Liriano went 5.2 innings and only gave up one run. Without observing the game and just going by that stat line, you'd think that maybe he walked a few too many guys or just ran out of gas. This was not the case whatsoever. In fact, Frankie (if not spectacular) was remarkable in his ability to get out of jams.
In the fifth inning, with the bases loaded with Sox and no one out, Cisco got Rios to hit into a force play at the plate, then struck out both Konerko and Quentin on nasty sliders to end the inning.
In the sixth, the Sox again loaded the bases, this time with one out, only to see Liriano get Pierre to line out and then cede to Guerrier, who popped out Ramirez.
All told, it was a miraculous performance from Liriano in terms of pitching out of jams.
Then the seventh inning dawned, the Tighty-Whities put a man on base (Mauer) to pitch to Kubel, and that pretty much ended things:
-With Valencia playing so well at third, there seems to be no rush to hurry along Nick Punto back from injury. When Little Nicky does return, I would hope that Gardy would use him as a sub, not wrenching the starting job from a still-hitting Danny Boy.
-Will anyone really miss Mijares? He's basically what I call a 50-50 guy. He might get the lefty out, but he also has just a great a chance at walking him or uncorking a wild pitch. Is he worth it as a LOGEY?
Preview (65-50, 1st, 1.0 GA CWS): Gio Gonzalez (10-7, 3.51) vs. Carl Pavano (14-7, 3.28). As Bert Blyleven said on the telecast tonight, Oakland is playing some decent ball right now, and can throw some quality arms at us this weekend. But is it any match for the stache? I think not.

This Dark Endeavor by Kenneth Oppel
Have you ever wondered what Victor Frankenstein was like as a boy? What events might have shaped him into the man who decided to explore the dark science of reanimating a nonliving body? In his new book, This Dark Endeavor, Kenneth Oppel writes a prequel to Mary Shelly's Frankenstein.
Kenneth Oppel writes about 16 year old Victor Frankenstein. This Gothic adventure sets the stage for Victor Frankenstein's obsession with alchemy over "true" science. Victor lives an idyllic life on a beautiful estate near Geneva Switzerland. When Victor's twin brother, Konrad, falls ill, Victor believes that he can save his brother using a forbidden book found in a secret alchemist lab on the Frankenstein estate. Victor, his cousin Elizabeth and friend Henry race against time to gather the ingredients for the Elixir of Life. All the while Victor, who sees himself as flawed, is tormented by his own motivations for saving his brother. Is it to gain fame, win the heart of their cousin Elizabeth or is it truly for the love of his brother? Although the Gothic style will not appeal to all readers, this is a well crafted intense novel with plenty of page turning action.
