Prime Time
The Communist Dynasty Had Its Run. Now What?
By NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF
Published: February 23, 1997
WHEN Deng Xiaoping visited the United States in 1979, the actress Shirley MacLaine told him how impressed she had been on a visit to China during the Cultural Revolution, when Mr. Deng and countless others had been forced to toil in remote areas and ''learn from the peasants.'' The actress said she had been particularly moved by a scholar working in a field, who had described how much more fulfilling it was to grow tomatoes than to work in a university.
Mr. Deng looked at her and said: ''He lied.''
It was Mr. Deng's genius to cut through the propaganda and chimera of Maoism, and thereby save Communism in China. His 18-year reign as Chinese Emperor was one of the greatest since the legendary Yellow Emperor who supposedly helped found the nation thousands of years ago, and he rescued the Communist Dynasty when it was tottering after Mao's death. But his own departure again leaves the dynasty in fragile shape.
The Communist Dynasty, founded by Mao in 1949, has today largely lost the ''mandate of heaven'' -- the moral authority and popular support or acquiescence -- that gives it legitimacy and enables it to rule. So China may now be approaching a transition not only of emperors but also of dynasties.
Possibilities Open
This does not mean that anything much will happen immediately or even in the next few years. Still, Mr. Deng's death has created a tremendous range of possibilities, from a military coup at one extreme to evolution toward quasi-democracy on the other. So long as his heart beat, China was vaguely predictable, but now all kinds of things become conceivable.
One measure of the frailty of the Communist Dynasty is that the name already is a bit of a misnomer, for China is not a Communist country in any meaningful sense. It is run by a Communist Party, but the principles governing China are not Marxist-Leninist but Market-Leninist. In other words, China is a marriage of a market economy and Leninist dictatorial principles.
China's Communists today care not about Communism but about power. The bottom line is: We'll stay in power, and everything else is negotiable. There may be more Marxists in New York than in Beijing.
''By the end of his life, he saw clearly that it wasn't working'' the widow of one of China's top leaders once confided. ''But what could he do? Of course he couldn't admit it to anyone but me.''
Mr. Deng's own youngest son, Deng Zhifang, demonstrates the path that the best and brightest are taking. An American-trained engineer, he worked for a state-owned company in the 1980's, answering his own telephone and riding a bicycle to work each day. Now he is a property magnate and international businessman based in China worth tens of millions of dollars. He makes decisions in the same way as any Hong Kong tycoon.
Deng Xiaoping effectively transformed China from an ultra-leftist country to an ultra-rightist country, and today the Communist Dynasty governs not by socialism but by something close to a dictionary definition of fascism. China's underlying dynamic, with its combination of vibrant free enterprise, state-owned companies and authoritarian political system, has little in common with Maoism but has great parallels with Franco's Spain or Park Chung Hee's South Korea or Pinochet's Chile.
This arrangement has given China tremendous vitality, but it has not done much for the longevity of the political system, and Mr. Deng's China may some day be remembered the way the world now looks back on Franco's Spain. The problem is that Market-Leninism seems to be an inherently unstable concept, for the market eats away at the Leninism.
It may seem odd to speak of China's leaders today as emperors, but that historical lens is probably the most useful in explaining their behavior. China's Communists initially rebelled against history, but they soon fell into traditional patterns, and Mr. Deng's role could not possibly be explained by his formal positions. At their peak he was Deputy Prime Minister, and for the last seven years he held no title loftier than Honorary Chairman of the China Bridge Association. In fact, of course, he was Emperor, and it was a title he could not have given up had he wanted to.
Throughout history, Chinese have noted a ''dynastic cycle.'' The first emperor is a strong-willed general or peasant rebel who seizes power and imposes far-reaching changes, but he is followed by rulers who are steadily weaker. The dynasty's moral authority sags under the burden of taxes, corruption and ineptitude, and a new leader emerges to found a new dynasty.
A 'Melon-Head'
Mao was a classic dynastic founder, and Mr. Deng was a strong ruler too. But Jiang Zemin, the stocky, bespectacled and totally uncharismatic ''weather vane'' whom Mr. Deng picked in 1989 to be the next emperor, is almost immediately recognizable as the kind of emperor who belongs at the tail end of a dynastic cycle -- if he becomes any kind of emperor at all.
Prime Minister Li Peng is even less the type to inspire the Mandate of Heaven. Intensely unpopular and widely ridiculed for his authoritarian and awkward style, denounced even by his mother, he is a lightning-rod for jokes about the regime. In one, a worker is arrested for shouting ''Li Peng is a melon-head'' and is sentenced to 20 years in prison -- 5 for counter-revolutionary crimes and 15 for revealing state secrets.

Just some tags to keep the topic alive. Fresh colours with a winter backdrop, but.. yeah... hardly artistry.
Each column was tagged on both sides. There were 4 more columns behind me.
Love this one because I was coming back from a nice solo ride and the picture reflects my attitude after a good ride.
Some tags I never bothered with before. This stuff's everywhere here.

This was a 'legal wall, but the writers aren't.

One more caught..
Aaaand we have some more...
And then some..
Could have easily missed this one tucked in a passageway between two buildings. Kinda freaky taking the pic. Same artist as the owl

Me? I had to drag myself up all the way to this and then get the snow trail down. Can't complain.
On our ride today on the frozen river we passed a bridge foundation with some "new" graffiti
Give a man a fish and it'll steal his ride.
This one doesn't look too happy to be in a cage..
Yesterday i realised that i didn't take my camera with me for a while now, so i took it with me and snapped a few new ones by the Lastplak crew and friends.

Biomarkers in cancer research are considered a central component of the expected improvements in prevention, detection, treatment and monitoring. There are potentially useful in many different types of studies and for many different purposes. Critical questions are whether they are valid to use, how can they be utilized in a valid and efficient way, and then if they are used how confident is one in the conclusions that are obtained. The use of biomarkers to advance understanding in cancer science has great potential, but also has some risks. Biomarkers are subject to uncertainty in their measurement, they may not be measuring exactly the quantity of interest, and since they are not explicitly measures of symptoms their use to aid in decision making or evaluation of therapies in a clinical setting is subject to uncertainty. Thus careful analysis of data from studies that involve biomarkers is crucial. There are many statistical challenges that arise in such studies. This application is concerned with developing, evaluating and applying statistical methods for data that involves biomarkers.
The first aim is concerned with adding biomarkers to prediction models that may be used to stratify or classify patients. In this aim we develop approaches for integrating data from other sources to improve the prediction models. This research will have broad applicability. Innovative aspects involve the use of targeted ridge regression, multi-kernel machine modeling, and importance sampling to incorporate information from the literature.
The second aim is concerned with clinical trials where the biomarker is to be used to evaluate a therapy as a surrogate endpoint. Because of the nature of the scientific question causal modeling is very natural in this context. We propose to develop both potential outcomes and structural causal models. We will investigate both single trial and multi trial settings with different endpoint types.
The third aim is concerned with therapies that may be effective only for a subgroup of patients, and to be useful this subgroup is determined by a small number of predictive biomarkers. For data from randomized clinical trials we suggest a unified modeling approach, and will investigate the use of single index models with variable selection and multivariate partial least squares to aid in the subgroup identification. Inference following subgroup identification is challenging, we suggest an innovative scheme to simulate data under an appropriate null distribution.
All 3 aims in this proposal address fundamental and significant problems in translational oncology research. Successful completion of the aims will have an impact both in understanding and utilizing biomarkers and also in developing statistical methodology that can be more broadly applicable to other fields.

Blackwater: In Iraq to Stay?
The U.S. security firm Blackwater USA has come under a great deal of fire from Iraqi authorities after some of its operatives were blamed for a shooting that cost civilian lives. But the truth is, the company will be needed even more if a drawdown of U.S. troops occurs. And a move to revoke Blackwater's license might ultimately undermine Iraqi government authority.

It's a Big Country is a 1951 anthology film directed by 6 directors: Clarence Brown, John Sturges, Richard Thorpe, Charles Vidor, Don Weis, and William A. Wellman.
A professor traveling on a train overhears a fellow passenger make a comment about "America". The professor then asks: "Which America?" This provides a lead-in for multiple tales of American life. There is the tale of Mrs. Riordan, an elderly lady from Boston. She is upset about not having been counted in the 1950 census. She asks a newspaper editor named Callaghan to intervene on her behalf, and he makes the mistake of not taking her seriously.
There is the story of a Hungarian immigrant named Stefan Szabo who is in the business of selling paprika. He has several daughters and does not want them to marry men of other nationalities. Rosa falls in love with Icarus, who is Greek, and must overcome her father's objections. There is the tale of Maxie Klein, a young Jewish man. He looks up the mother of a young man who died in the war. The mother is not sure what to make of Maxie because her son mentioned no Jewish friend, but ends up touched by his visit. So many tall tales about Texas exist that a tall Texas man takes it upon himself to separate the fact from the fiction.
Adam Burch, a minister in Washington, D.C., whose parishioners include the President of the United States, sometimes tailors his sermons specifically for the President, only to learn later that the President was unable to attend services that day. Scolded to speak for all rather than to one, Rev. Burch gives the sermon of his life, and then learns to his surprise that the President was present on that day and heard every word. Miss Coleman, a school teacher in San Francisco, discovers that her pupil Joey needs glasses. Joey's father, Mr. Esposito, believes they are not necessary and will only bring Joey ridicule from his peers. In the end, it is the father who learns an important lesson.

Parking should be with traffic flow
Published: Tuesday, January 7, 2003 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, January 7, 2003 at 12:00 a.m.
To The Editor: Recently, a letter writer questioned why Shepherd Funeral Home faces their funeral processions the wrong way on a one-way street. I have another side to this. Why are cars, etc., allowed to park on any side of the street that they want to, headlight to headlight?
It is especially stupid when oncoming traffic cuts a person off to park against the traffic. What is so difficult about driving around the block to park with the traffic? If there is not a law to require parking with the traffic, there should be. If there already is, why is it not being enforced by the Police Department? A public answer from the Hendersonville Police would be nice and enforcement would be nicer!

Most survey data on sexual activities are obtained via face-to-face interviews, which are prone to misreporting of socially unacceptable behaviors. Demographers have developed various private response methods to minimize social desirability bias and improve the quality of reporting; however, these methods often limit the complexity of information collected. We designed a life history calendar—the Relationship History Calendar (RHC)—to increase the scope of data collected on sexual relationships and behavior while enhancing their quality. The RHC records detailed, 10-year retrospective information on sexual relationship histories. The structure and interview procedure draw on qualitative techniques, which could reduce social desirability bias. We compare the quality of data collected with the RHC with a standard face-to-face survey instrument through a field experiment conducted among 1,275 youth in Kisumu, Kenya. The results suggest that the RHC reduces social desirability bias and improves reporting on multiple measures, including higher rates of abstinence among males and multiple recent sexual partnerships among females. The RHC fosters higher levels of rapport and respondent enjoyment, which appear to be the mechanisms through which social desirability bias is minimized. The RHC is an excellent alternative to private response methods and could potentially be adapted for large-scale surveys.

There might be times during development when you need to obtain information from the logs of the webplayer you've built, your standalone player, the target device or the editor. Usually you need to see these files when you have experienced a problem and you have to know where exactly the problem occurred.
On Mac the webplayer, player and editor logs can be accessed uniformly through the standard Console.app utility.
On Windows the webplayer and editor logs are placed in folders which are not shown in the Windows Explorer by default. See below.
The editor log can be brought up through the Open Editor Log button in Unity's Console window.
|Mac OS X
|Windows XP
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data_\Unity\Editor\Editor.log
|Windows Vista/7
On Windows, the Editor log file is stored in the local application data folder: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Unity\Editor\Editor.log, where LOCALAPPDATA is defined by CSIDL_LOCAL_APPDATA.
On Mac all the logs can be accessed uniformly through the standard Console.app utility.
|Mac OS X
~/Library/Logs/Unity/WebPlayer.log and
|Windows XP
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Temp\UnityWebPlayer\log\log_UNIQUEID.txt
|Windows Vista/7
|Windows Vista/7 + IE7 + UAC
On Windows the webplayer log is stored in a temporary folder: %TEMP%\UnityWebPlayer\log\log_UNIQUEID.txt, where TEMP is defined by GetTempPath.
|Mac OS X
Windows __ |
On Windows, EXECNAME_Data is a folder next to the executable with your game.
Note that on Windows and Linux standalones the location of the log file can be changed (or logging suppressed.) See the command line page for further details.
The device log can be accessed in XCode via GDB console or the Organizer Console. The latter is useful for getting crashlogs when your application was not running through the XCode debugger.
The Troubleshooting and Bugreporting guides may be useful for you.
The device log can be viewed by using the logcat console. Use the adb application found in Android SDK/platform-tools directory with a trailing logcat parameter:
$ adb logcat
Another way to inspect the LogCat is to use the Dalvik Debug Monitor Server (DDMS). DDMS can be started either from Eclipse or from inside the Android SDK/tools. DDMS also provides a number of other debug related tools.
The device log can be viewed by using the sdb console. Use the sdb application found in Tizen SDK/tools directory with a trailing dlog parameter:
$ sdb dlog
If you would like to only see messages from Unity you may add a filter. The filter specification is similar to that for Android. The following command will display only messages for the Unity log.
$ sdb dlog Unity:*
Windows Store Apps (On Desktop) __ |
|Windows Phone__
|Can be retrieved with Windows Phone Power Tools, also check out this tool as well
Windows Phone IsoStoreSpy.
On Windows the log files are stored in locations that are hidden by default. In Windows XP, you can make hidden folders visible in Windows Explorer using Tools->Folder Options…->View (tab).
On Windows Vista/7 you can make the AppData folder visible in Windows Explorer using Tools->Folder Options…->View (tab). The Tools menu is hidden by default, but can be displayed by pressing the Alt key once.

The Case of the Mysterious Author Who Took Her Children to Bookstores all over the Country
Jenny Milchman, you are either the coolest mother this side of the Pecos, or a completely crazy woman, possibly both.
Milchman, who recently published the suspense novel "Cover of Snow" (Ballantine), is driving around the country visiting independent bookstores to promote her novel -- with her husband AND their two children. "During the tour, we are 'car-schooling' our first- and third-grade children. Part of their education will be seeing the landscape change as the bookstores do," Milchman, who lives in New Jersey, wrote in an article for the bookseller trade e-newsletter Shelf Awareness. »Read Full Blog Post

Scott G Winterton, Deseret News
The news hit on Saturday that top linebacker recruit Vince Biegel committed to his hometown favorite Wisconsin. It was a tough pill to swallow for BYU fans as Biegel was considered by Cougar coaches to not only be the top linebacker prospect on their board, but their top overall defensive prospect.
Biegel is the son of former Cougar linebacker Rocky Biegel, which led to a lot of mutual interest, but in the end, BYU proved to be his second choice. It was a close call as he consistently mentioned BYU as being in his top two choices, along with Wisconsin.
Despite the loss of Biegel, 2012 could still see a lot of top linebacker prospects signing with BYU. It's imperative for BYU to consistently attract top linebacker talent, given the tenants of the 3-4 defense that the Cougars employ as their base formation.
In 2006, Bronco Mendenhall switched to a 3-4 defense from his base 3-3-5 defense in large part due to his existing strength at linebacker that year. The 2006 season included such standout player-makers such as Cameron Jensen, Aaron Wagner, Bryan Kehl, David Nixon and Kelly Poppinga, among other players.
Mendenhall assessed that he should fit his defensive system around the strengths of his existing players. Linebacker was the strength of that defense and has proven to be the strength of most BYU defensive units since that time.
There is very good talent in the program currently at both inside and at outside linebacker, but it's of the utmost importance to keep that talent flowing in from year to year. So what is on tap for 2012 at the linebacker position?
Adam Ah-Ching, 6-1, 215, Greer, S.C.: BYU was on Ah-Ching very early and extended a verbal offer to him when he was only a sophomore. Since that time, he's attended BYU's summer camps and kept in close contact with the Cougar coaching staff.
Ah-Ching holds offers from BYU, Utah, Colorado and Georgia Tech currently, which speaks well to his credentials as a top linebacker prospect. BYU is in a very strong position here, considering his ties to BYU's program already and the fact that they came through with his first offer.
Quote: "I want to go to a place with high morals, that's the most important thing for me. I want to go to a school with a good atmosphere where I can progress and reach my goals and a school that respects my plans to serve a mission. I'm definitely serving a mission, and the school I sign with will have to respect those plans."
Jared Afalava, 6-3, 210, South Jordan, Utah: BYU was the first school to offer Afalava a position, and he lists it as one of his favorites along with Utah, which made him an offer soon after BYU did. He recently garnered an offer from Washington and should be receiving even more offers over the summer.
This one looks to be a dead heat early on between the state's top two programs. Afalava has stated a strong desire to play in the PAC-12 conference but also likes the unique, spiritual environment at BYU.
Quote: "I'm a strong Mormon kid, and my faith is very important to me, so I really like that BYU is a Mormon school with high ideals and a good environment. They also have a good Polynesian community down there like Utah does. I'm very good friends with Manoa (Pikula), Baker (Pritchard), Mo (Moses Kaumatule) and Kesni (Tausinga.) They all are real excited to go to BYU, and they want me to go down there with them, obviously."
Butch Pau'u, 6-0, 215, Anaheim, Calif.: Pau'u holds offers from BYU, Iowa State and Washington, with many more offers likely on the way. BYU is in a very strong position here, considering the family ties he has with the program.
He's also very good friends with Ah-Ching, and both of them have talked about how they'd love to play inside linebacker together while at BYU.

international grandmaster
Salo Flohr
When the first big international chess tournament was held in Moscow back in 1925, the pick of the world's players took part. This provided Soviet scientists with an interesting opportunity to discover whether there was something physically and mentally peculiar about the players of this game, so loved the world over.
At long last, we learned of their decision. After due deliberation, they issued their diagnosis. They reported the surprising news: chess players are... normal.
So far as I know, no further experiments of this nature have been conducted!
NOBODY Keeps Cool
I am neither scientist nor doctor, but I can say with absolute certainty that not a single player can keep perfectly cool at the chessboard.
The truth is that every player is an actor to a certain degree and skillfully hides his feelings. You may believe that Petrosian, Botvinnik, Tal and others play with Olympian calmness if you like, but that would be wrong. Of course, they do have a better grip on their nerves than many others, but when success begins to slip from their grasp, you may notice their ears grow red.
The beating of a chess player's heart depends greatly on what is happening on the board!
I am sure what many, if not all my readers would like to become world champion some day. I can tell you what to do to achieve the ambition, even though I have never been world champion myself-much as I have wanted to be.
Start at Ten
When is the best time to begin playing chess? Chess, like love, is infectious at any age. Alekhine, perhaps the greatest player of all time, first took up the game at the age of seven and was already a master when he reached 16. Reshevsky, the American grandmaster, gave performances of simultaneous play in many European capitols from the ages of seven to nine. Some malicious tongues claim that Reshevsky played better as a child than he does today!
Capablanca first fingered a pawn when he was only four years old. Tal became champion of the USSR at the age of 20.
It seems to me that the best time to take up chess is at about age ten. One should bear in mind, however, that a child may become much too engrossed in chess, as in any other game. It is up to parents to see that the passion does no harm.
Why Soviet Players Excel
Abroad, we are often asked about the secret of our success and how the USSR finds its fresh talent.
Of course, our only "secret" is that the USSR attaches considerable importance to the education of the younger generation. Spasskys and Tals do not drop from the heavens: we have to educate them.
But let us presume that you are already a first-class chess player and are on your way up the ladder to the world championship. What sort of regimen should you have?
Guard Your Health
The world's leading players, the grandmasters of the USSR, look after their health and playing form very carefully. Of our 19 grandmasters, only five are smokers. Smyslov and Botvinnik are arch enemies of tobacco. Among our grandmasters there are quite a few who in the past smoked a lot, but then realized that it was harmful and dropped the habit.
Following the temporary loss of the world championship title, Alekhine quit smoking and drinking coffee and wine. Instead, he began drinking so much milk that one press report said that he was traveling from place to place with his own cow.
Results? The Alekhine who arrived in Holland in 1937 for the return match was an entirely different man, confident and bursting with health. He easily beat Euwe to regain the world crown.
Physical Exercise and Diet
All the best Soviet players engage in some sport. Botvinnik and Smyslov go in for gymnastics and skiing. Spassky and Keres play tennis, while Geller likes basketball.
Botvinnik has been doing his daily dozen since childhood. He takes a two-hour walk every day. He ponders long over the board during a game and rarely leaves the chessboard. His routine extends to eating a piece of chocolate at a specified time and drinking a cup of tea with lemon after two and a half hours of play.
Bronstein's Lemon Juice
Speaking of lemons, in 1954, during the USSR-USA match, the New York Times informed its readers about Bronstein's thirst during play at the Roosevelt Hotel.
Bronstein had asked for a glass of lemon juice and an American onlooker tried to correct him, "You mean lemonade?"
No. Bronstein insisted on lemon juice, and nine big lemons were squeezed to fill up his glass. The man from Moscow put that drink down to the last drop!
This incident is easily explained. As a rule, our chess players are accompanied by a doctor. The doctor with Bronstein at the time had noticed that he was getting tired and so advised him to drink some lemon juice as a tonic.
Drink lemon juice and play like Bronstein (he won all four of his games in the match), but I would not advise you to try stronger "refreshments".
Coffee and Alcohol
In many western countries there are physicians who claim the coffee is good for the health, that it is a good stimulant. I, too, was once a coffee drinker, but lately, I have come to the conclusion that a large quantity of coffee, particularly at night, is harmful. It leads to troubled sleep.
Need I add that Lasker, Capablanca, Euwe, Botvinnik and Smyslov-not one of them-never touch strong spirits? Every person has his habits, but if he takes hold of himself he can shake off any addiction.
Fish Instead of Meat
When a chess player is faring well in a tournament, people sometimes wonder what his diet is like. I remember asking Smyslov's wife at a time when he was defeating Botvinnik in 1957, "What are you feeding Vasya that makes him play well enough to beat Botvinnik?"
Her answer came only toward the end of the match, "Most of all, I feed him codfish."
So there you have it, dear readers, try out Smyslov's recipe and eat cod. It is a cheap fish, but very nutritious, and it will help you to become a champion.

text: For years scientists have been working on systems to better classify organisms using genetic "barcodes", i.e. DNA sequences that are used as unique identifiers for each species and that are found at specific locations of their genomes. For plants, for example, the currently used DNA barcodes are found in the plastids, small organelles within the plant cells that carry out photosynthesis. The genome of the plastid is very small in comparison to the plant genome, which has made the identification of DNA barcodes easier.

Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity
Loss of Lives in Clinical Trials...
Capitol Hill Critics Second-Guess Agencies Using...
Clinical-Style Validation, Regulation, and Quality Control...
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) today announced the recipients of four grants aimed at using genome sequencing in clinical care. Through an expansion of the National Human Genome Research Institute's (NHGRI) Clinical Sequencing Exploratory Research (CSER) program, multidisciplinary research teams from the Kaiser Foundation Research Institute in Portland, OR, the Hudson-Alpha Institute for Biotechnology, Huntsville, AL, the University of Michigan, and the University of Washington will share in a total of approximately $27 million in funding over the course of up to four years.
According to NIH, "the areas of research being pursued by these new projects include using genome sequencing to inform couples about reproductive risks, determining the genetic causes of childhood developmental delays and communicating findings to parents, and detecting genomic alterations that can lead to cancer."
More specifically, Kaiser Foundation Research Institute's Katrina Goddard, Ph.D., et al., are slated to receive a total of $8.1 million to examine the use of whole-genome sequencing to inform couples of potential carrier status for genetic disease before they conceive a child. The researchers also aim to develop useful approaches for sharing genomic information with patients.
Hudson-Alpha's Richard Myers, Ph.D. and colleagues will be given $7.66 million to sequence the genomes of nearly 500 children with developmental delays and other disabilities, along with their parents, in an effort to identify causative gene alterations. Dr. Myers et al., also plan to examine how patients and their families are impacted by genomic testing.
Arul Chinnaiyan, M.D., Ph.D., and colleagues at the University of Michigan have won $7.97 million to sequence the genomes of tumors from 500 patients with advanced sarcoma or other rare cancers, with an eventual goal of personalizing patient therapies. Additionally, among other things, Dr. Chinnaiyan et al., plan to evaluate the genomic testing patient consent process.
The University of Washington's Gail Jarvik, M.D., Ph.D., Wylie Burke, M.D., Ph.D., Debbie Nickerson, Ph.D., and Peter Tarczy-Hornoch, M.D., are slated to receive $3 million to lead a coordinating center, which will be responsible for pulling together scientific teams, helping to organize studies, forming common goals, and assisting in results interpretation.
"Since the first round of CSER program awards were announced in 2011, the use of clinical genome sequencing has seen tremendous growth," Bradley Ozenberger, Ph.D., NHGRI CSER program director, said in a statement. "Genome sequencing has vast potential to uncover new targets for therapy. We're continuing to learn how best to use genome sequence data to understand disease susceptibility and causation, and to advance treatment."
Added the institute's Jean McEwen, J.D., Ph.D., program director for the Ethical, Legal, and Social Implications research program: "It's not enough to understand the scientific issues related to the medical applications of genomics. Researchers must also examine how best to discuss genome sequencing results and their potential implications with doctors, patients, and caregivers."

AES E-Library
An Efficient Asynchronous Sampling-Rate Conversion Algorithm for Multi-Channel Audio Applications
We describe an asynchronous sampling-rate conversion (SRC) algorithm that is specifically tailored to multi-channel audio applications. The algorithm is capable of converting between arbitrary asynchronous sampling rates around a fixed operating point, and it is designed to operate in multi-threaded systems. The algorithm uses a set of fractional delay filters together with cubic interpolation to achieve accurate and efficient sampling-rate conversion.

The discussion is lively these days in Matt Friedl's American government classes at Hudson High School. The students, many of them seniors, are discussing the election, the first many of them can vote in, and some of the controversial measures on the ballot. It's the way Friedl likes it. His passion for teaching led Friedl to become a national board certified teacher in 2000. The distinction comes only after completion of a rigorous process of professional review and testing.
The Hudson Board of Education voted unanimously last week to hold a bond referendum Dec. 12 in the amount of $12,040,000 for the construction of a new elementary school. The move came at a special board meeting held on Oct. 26. The cost of the school, which would be built on property already owned by the district on Coulee Trail, south of Interstate 94, is estimated to be between $15-16 million, depending on whether the property is annexed by the city of Hudson as requested by the district.
The final calculations are in for this year's Hudson School District budget, and the news is slightly better than what was anticipated at the annual meeting in September. While the levy is voted upon at the annual meeting, the final calculations are based on official enrollment numbers taken on the third Friday of September -- those numbers determine state and other aids to the district. The final budget and tax levy were certified at a special Board of Education meeting on Oct. 26.
The Milwaukee County corporation counsel said the Hudson Board of Education did not violate the state's open meeting law when members attended the annual Wisconsin Association of School Boards meeting in Milwaukee last January. The decision was in response to a complaint filed by Curt Weese of North Hudson and Marion Shaw of the town of Hudson who alleged that the attendance of all seven board members at the convention violated the open meeting law.
Hudson may be one of the fastest growing small towns in the state, but there are some things that will forever define it -- like the Hudson Flower Shop. The Hudson Flower Shop has been in business 60 years and will celebrate that anniversary this weekend. Owner Shelli Erck has invited former owners, employees, customers and friends to drop by this Friday and Saturday to celebrate the milestone. The shop has been in the same location for all 60 years although the name, the building and even the address have changed when the city renumbered the block.
More than 40 people have joined the effort to get a new elementary school built in the Hudson School District. The group, Friends of Hudson Public Education, supports the estimated $15 million referendum that will go before voters on Dec. 12. The plan calls for the construction of a 588-student K-5 elementary school to be located on property the district owns on Coulee Trail, south of I-94.
In Oct. 26 issue of the Star Observer story on page 2A about the "Friends of Public Education" committee, it was incorrectly reported that a bond referendum of $15 million would go before the voters on Dec. 12. The school board will not vote officially on the resolution calling for a referendum until their meeting this Thursday night at Hudson High School.
Yanchy Lacska of Hudson was in a meeting last week with co-workers from the St. Paul Public Schools Office of Safety and Security when he was interrupted to take a call -- from the office of the president of the United States. He admits he couldn't resist telling his colleagues, "You'll have to excuse me -- it's the White House calling." After a 30-minute interview last Monday, Lacska was invited to leave immediately to attend the president's school safety summit at the White House the next day. As exciting as the call was, it was the invitation that was important.
The subject of chain mail doesn't come up often these days, and if it does, it probably conjures up images of medieval knights charging one another wearing what was then the equivalent of a bulletproof vest. But the art of chain mail is a whole lot more, especially at the hands of Michelle Baranick. A banker by day, Baranick has been creating Norwegian chain mail jewelry for the past two and a half years. Norwegian herself, Baranick was immediately interested in how the jewelry was made and with some help from a contact in Norway taught herself the art of chain mail.
Retirement in Hudson is a relative term to people like Myrtle Spielman. Spielman officially retired from her position at First National Bank in December of 1986 after 25 years, only to come back two years later as a part-time teller working onsite with the residents of WinterGreen -- for the next 20 years. So with her 80th birthday approaching, her co-workers at the bank decided to throw her a party at WinterGreen. She was greeted by a large number of the residents as well as friends, co-workers and fellow "retirees" at the gathering held Wednesday in the WinterGreen atrium.

Hi Guys and Gals,
I'm looking for a way to order different categories in different ways. For example, I would like one category to display in order of a Custom field called 'game_title'. If possible I'd like to go a step further and display everything by 'published date' after it's been primarily sorted by the custom field. If that is at all possible!
I'd like another category to display alphabetically by Post Title.
And i'd like my news category to display by the usual default 'published date'.
Is this possible and if so, how do I go about doing it? I'd really appreciate any help, I'm not great with code but I can try my best to get to grips with it. Also, I've been searching all over but have used this as a last resort to get an answer!
Many thanks in advance,

|More information:
"Frances Power Cobbe was a mid-Victorian feminist journalist and one of a handful of women to make a steady living writing for the nineteenth century established press. She was involved in the national women's suffrage campaign, argued for women's increased educational and employment opportunities, and was a vocal critic of marriage. Instrumental in the passage of the 1878 Matrimonial Causes Act, which made domestic violence grounds for legal separation, she also helped to write the 1876 Cruelty to Animals Act. She was one of the best-known feminist thinkers of her day. Despite her prodigious accomplishments, her writings have been neglected. Drawing on historical and literary approaches, this book examines the links between Victorian feminism and the established press, and insists on the importance of what it meant to have a Victorian feminist write for the established press."--Jacket.

CHICAGO (July 16, 2013)—Nathan Woessner, 6, remained in critical condition Tuesday after he spent hours buried beneath 11 feet of sand on a sand dune in Indiana, a spokesman for the University of Chicago Medicine Comer Children's Hospital said.
The Sterling, Ill., boy was buried for more than three hours before rescuers pulled him from beneath 11 feet of sand on Friday.
He was limp and cold, but began breathing on his way to the hospital.
Doctors say he's expected to recover and should be released in about two weeks.
The Mount Baldy area at the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore will remain closed indefinitely following the accident.
Authorities believe Woessner may have fallen into a hole that was created by a long-buried tree that had decomposed, leaving a void in the sand.

Signal detection theory (SDT) parameters can describe a learner's ability to discriminate (d′) normal from abnormal and the learner's criterion (λ) to under or overcall abnormalities. To examine the serial changes in SDT parameters with serial exposure to radiological cases. 46 participants were recruited for this study: 20 medical students (MED), 6 residents (RES), 12 fellows (FEL), 5 staff pediatric emergency physicians (PEM), and 3 staff radiologists (RAD). Each participant was presented with 234 randomly assigned ankle radiographs using a web-based application. Participants were given a clinical scenario and considered 3 views of the ankle. They classified each case as normal or abnormal. For abnormal cases, they specified the location of the abnormality. Immediate feedback included highlighting on the images and the official radiologist's report. The low experience group (MED, RES, FEL) showed steady improvement in discrimination ability with each case, while the high experience group (PEM, RAD) had higher and stable discrimination ability throughout the exercise. There was also a difference in the way the high and low experience groups balanced sensitivity and specificity (λ) with the low experience group tending to make more errors calling positive radiographs negative. This tendency was progressively less evident with each increase in expertise level. SDT metrics provide valuable insight on changes associated with learning radiograph interpretation, and may be used to design more effective instructional strategies for a given learner group.
