The name of the country derives from the name of the Rus' people. The origin of the people itself and of their name is a matter of some controversy.
Russia is the largest country in the world, covering one eighth of the world?s surface and spanning 11 different time zones. Population ? approximately 146 million.
The Russia was the first to send a satellite (Sputnik I in 1957), an animal (the dog Laika aboard Sputnik II in 1957) and a cosmonaut (Yuri Gagarin aboard Vostok I in Apr.1961).
Russia is a country that stretches over a vast expanse of Europe and Asia. With an area of 17,075,200 square kilometres (6,595,600 mi�), it is the largest country in the world (by land mass), covering almost twice the territory of the next-largest country, Canada and ranks as the world's eighth largest population.

Very interesting and helpful page. Thanx. In Israel (one million Russian new comers on the nineties, you know) we know quite well Russian folklore, Vodka,KARTOSHKA in the markets, Kalashnikovs we took from our neighbours.... Kurchatov was unknown to me. I hope you aware to the fact that the founding fathers of my country came from Russia of first half of 20th century. Warm greetings from Jerusalem
And, FRUITS, you have the berries, in Russia and Canada as well, typical to northern countries. Many of other fruits are imported, I know it.
Oh yes! but in Russia we have berries in the forests and you have to know spots and to bow low to every single one, oh... lots of work, when in Canada even blueberries grow at farms!
Hi there, how are you? Did you make the Trans Sibirian railway? What feedback you heard about? Greetings from tiny Israel, Avi
I enjoyed all the tips, but especially the Russian stereotype tips, very educational. I think the Onion Domes are spectacular! Excellent page Kris!
Wow, this is coming to be one of my favorite page. I have a strong relation to Russian and what you told here, arise a lot of memories! Thank you Kris!
Hi, Kris & Tim! ~ Great and sincere observations! Thanks for your interesting and detailed page!
Me again, coming back to look at your recent tips and updates since last January. Very interesting tips and fine photos!
You have worked very hard to make these excelent tips that will help us to prepare our next travel to Russia Thank you Gracias !!!! By the way : Happy birthday!!!
You did an excellent job of telling of the customs and we have purchased the matroshkas many times-and just got one that are measuring cups for Christmas. YOur pictures are great also.
Great Local Customs tips! yes! it's our RUSSIA!
Interesting customs tips. Perhaps you could mention that the Volga was also a very popular make of cars. And I think we could compete with Russian winters, at least this year.

But assuming that the title of your question is correct, then the Ubuntu logos are here. If you need a large version, just download the svg and create your own png with the size you need.
There is also an explanation about how to use the logos.

Display depicts Native American villages
Published: Monday, November 17, 2008 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, November 16, 2008 at 8:29 p.m.
The Thanksgiving holiday stems from a meal held in the autumn of 1621 by the Pilgrims and the Wampanoag Indians in Massachusetts to celebrate the colonys first successful harvest.
The first Thanksgiving meal was actually in keeping with a long tradition of celebrating the harvest and giving thanks for a successful bounty of crops. American Indian groups throughout the Americas, including the Pueblo, Cherokee, Creek and many others, organized harvest festivals, ceremonial dances and other celebrations of thanks for centuries before the arrival of Europeans in North America.
The American Indians introduced the traditional foods served at the Thanksgiving meal to the early colonists: Corn, sweet potatoes, wild turkey, cranberries and pumpkins. These foods, harvested by American Indians for centuries, were unknown to Europeans before arriving in North America.
It was in 1540 when the Cherokee living in Western North Carolina encountered Europeans. Spanish explorers led by Hernando DeSoto came through the mountains. The Spanish found Cherokee hunters with bows the Spanish soldiers were unable to pull back, propelling arrows with the power to pierce a horse from hindquarter to heart.
About the time the Pilgrims were feasting with the Wampanoag Indians, the Cherokee controlled 140,000-square miles throughout eight present-day Southern states.
This month at the Henderson County Heritage Museum, a special display created by eighth-grade social studies students at Apple Valley Middle School teaches residents and visitors about the houses and food of American Indians.
The display of American Indian villages was researched and created by students, working as teams, and represent various American Indian cultural groups in the United States.
Students used many natural materials to create the authentic replica villages that demonstrate the lifestyle of American Indians.
Fourteen of the villages are displayed in the back lobby area on the first floor of the Historic Courthouse on Main Street. The award-winning villages represent a Cherokee log cabin, Southwest pueblo, Mandan earth lodge, Seminole chickee, Western aboriginal lean-to, Eastern woodlands wigwam, Southwest hogan, two Northeastern longhouses, Eskimo igloo, Southeast thatch house, Paleo cave, Plains teepee and Northwest Coast plank house.
Kilwins is hosting a Southwest pueblo and the Village Green Antique Mall is displaying an Eskimo igloo and Northwest Coast plank house.
The villages can be viewed at the Historic Courthouse from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays through Fridays, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays and from 1 to 5 p.m. Sundays through the Thanksgiving weekend.
Brochures are available in the back lobby describing the villages and listing the names of the students who created the displays.
Some of the villages may also be viewed on a slideshow at the Times-News Web site, www.blueridgenow.com.
In the first thematic exhibit at the Henderson County Heritage Museum, the Cherokee display and multimedia focus on the Cherokees fight to keep their land. After the Thanksgiving holiday in November 2009, a new exhibit at the museum will focus on the homes, clothing and lifestyle of the Cherokee.

Every year the Animal Shelter Society helps find homes for animals left in their care.
Taking care of the animals and running program like spaying and neutering can tax the budget. To help raise money for the local non-profit they'll host the "Paws for Pigskin" auction at Ohio University/Zane State Campus Center on Saturday.
If helping out the animals isn't enough incentive to bring you out. The auction items might do the trick.
"Chef Bill Bird is doing a dinner for 12 where he comes to your house and it's really a gourmet kind of thing that he does. If you know Bill he does a great job. If you know Bill he does a great job," said Animal Shelter Executive Director. "Barnes advertising donated a billboard. We just have lots of unsual items this year."
This year the shelter will also present their Animal Guardian Angel Award.
"We have hundreds of volunteers and lots of people that come individually and groups and things and it's so important for us that the board decided last year to kind of find the person that really stood out for the past year," said Murray.
The award will be to a local junior girl scout troop. Murray said the girls did several projects for the shelter. If you would like to attend to auction the silent auction starts at 5 p.m. with dinner at 6 p.m.
There is still space available to reserve your table or buy tickets. Those interested should contact the Animal Shelter. Tickets will also be available at the door for $25.

Harley Quinn's Greatest Moments from "Batman: The Animated Series"
TV, Comic Books
Last week I talked about rediscovering the '70s series Secret Society of Super-Villains. As you might have guessed, this was made possible largely by the Internet. Without it, I would have had to scour back-issue boxes at regional comics shops and/or at the occasional convention. After all, that's what I grew up doing.
Regardless of where or how I bought those back issues, the fact remains that I bought them pretty much sight-unseen. Oh sure, I remembered random scenes from isolated issues, but basically my yen for SSoSV grew out of two things: its concept and its reputation. I knew what it aimed to be, and I figured if Gerry Conway wrote most of it, it couldn't be all bad.*
What's more (at the risk of being obvious) I had to track down these back issues because a collected version of Secret Society of Super-Villains is apparently still trapped in royalty-payment limbo. Not that I am especially bitter about that, mind you; because clearly I don't mind reading the individual issues and they weren't that hard to find.
However, I will say that DC's back issues — especially from buyer-beware periods like the '70s and '80s — are harder to get into than Marvel's. Looking back, '70s Marvel seems to me to be a company exploring its own potential, building largely on the Lee/Kirby/Ditko '60s but also experimenting with other genres. Thanks to the eclectic Essential series, I can sample everything from Avengers to Killraven. DC's Showcase Presents line includes B&W reprints of House Of Mystery, House of Secrets, Sgt. Rock, Haunted Tank, Enemy Ace, Bat Lash, early Jonah Hex, and even Secrets of Sinister House, but its coverage doesn't reach into the '70s and '80s the way Marvel's does. Again, this probably comes down to royalty payments, and I'd rather have DC resolve those issues first.
Besides, what I really want to talk about is the notion that one buys back issues of comics like Secret Society of Super-Villains less for their merits and more "just because." I suspect curiosity and nostalgia are big factors in such purchases, but there is also the reality that these stories may never exist outside the original issues. Currently DC collects a good bit of its recent output, including most of the last few years' worth of monthly comics. Assuming the publisher keeps these collections in print, we probably won't have to worry about the preservation of those stories.
What, though, is DC's incentive for preserving the rest of its (considerable) back catalogue? The demands of today's market accounts for some collections: for example, linking the Black Casebook and Strange Deaths Of Batman books to Grant Morrison's Batman work. The Chronicles and Archives books apparently address a more general "historical" desire for old stories. The Showcase books do this as well, but I would say they (like Marvel's Essentials) are intended more as samplers than as library-worthy reproductions. Cult-favorite series like the '80s Question have been reprinted in paperback. Finally, in the past few years DC has published more affordable hardcovers focused on well-known series and stories, including the Jack Kirby books, the JLA, Gotham Central, and Starman collections, and the "DC Library" series. These seem less market-driven and more reader-friendly than the chronological reprints. Other "themed" reprint series, like the Greatest Stories and [Character] in the [Decade], have come and gone.
Thus, generally I think DC does a reasonable job covering a broad overview of its superhero line. The major periods of a high-profile character's history — say, Wonder Woman's — are fairly well-represented. The first few years of the Golden Age can be found in the five Archives (and, presumably, in upcoming Chronicles). The Showcase Presents books spotlight the crazy Bob Kanigher period and the "Diana Prince" period has those four paperbacks. Much of the modern era, from the 1986 revamp to the present, has also been reprinted. Even so, though, that leaves most of the '70s and '80s in the back-issue bins. If this were a "DC should reprint Story X" post (and it may well be, you watch), I would suggest the "Twelve Trials Of Wonder Woman" from issues #212-222 (June-July 1974 through February-March 1976), the extended storyline which got Diana back into the Justice League following her "white-suit" period. I want to read these stories mostly because I've just finished the four "Diana Prince" paperbacks and would like to see how the book tried to get its superhero groove back.
More to the point, I want to read these stories because they make up one of the few extended Wonder Woman arcs I'm aware of from that period. I did not read Wonder Woman regularly as a youngster, and George Pérez's presence was a big part of me picking up the relaunch. I mean, I know she fought Kobra, and I know the original Silver Swan and second Cheetah were created in the '80s, but beyond that I'm hard-pressed to think of anything. This is why I liked the [Character] in the [Decade] series of reprints — a Wonder Woman in the Eighties book would really have helped me out.
And this, of course, brings me back to the central conundrum of any reprint program: why reprint bad comics? Because people might just pay money to read them, sure. (That would explain the Super-Sons paperback.) But still, isn't a bad reprint just the opportunity to pay money to see how bad those comics are? By ignoring such a long period of Wonder Woman's publishing history, isn't DC basically saying "trust us, you don't want to read this?"
Maybe … but eventually, that becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. If no one is curious about Wonder Woman in the '70s, or Steve Englehart and Marshall Rogers' Mister Miracle, or Arak, Son Of Thunder, or Young Heroes In Love, the only place anyone will find those stories is in the back-issue bins; and in the current state of the market, back issues are — well, on the back burner.
Again, these concerns may not all be demand-driven. I am fairly sure that, thanks to royalty issues, there won't be a Showcase Presents Secret Society of Super-Villains anytime soon; and that may hold true for reprints of other '70s and '80s series (All-Star Squadron comes immediately to mind). Nevertheless, if DC is willing to let these stories slip into obscurity, will it be satisfied with its reprint catalog in five, ten, or twenty years? By now you can probably name my perennial suggestions — 'Mazing Man, Amethyst, the Tom Peyer/Rags Morales Hourman — but just off the top of my head I can think of several other market-friendly stories and/or series which (where applicable) might be worth a little more negotiation on the royalty end:
— All-Star Squadron, written by Roy Thomas and drawn by various people. There are four paperbacks of Marvel's Invaders series currently available. DC's WWII-on-Earth-2 saga ought to be good for at least a couple.
— Blackhawk (1988-91), written by Martin Pasko and drawn by Rick Burchett and others. This series picked up where the Howard Chaykin miniseries left off, but it sought to tie the paramilitary aviators more closely to the postwar period. It began as a recurring feature in Action Comics Weekly and ran as its own title for 14 issues and an Annual.
— Chase, written by D. Curtis Johnson and drawn by J.H. Williams III and others. This fondly-remembered series tie into the equally-fondly-remembered Manhunter (Kate Spencer edition), but did I mention it features the art of master craftsman J.H. Williams III? Maybe DC is waiting for the new Batwoman series to debut before rolling this reprint out.
— Green Lantern #s 172-183, 185-86 (January 1984-March 1985), written by Len Wein and pencilled by Dave Gibbons. These issues featured Hal Jordan's return to Earth after months in outer-space exile, but things didn't end well for Hal. Following a devastating attack on Ferris Aircraft, Hal quit the Corps, leaving John Stewart to protect Sector 2814. GL-mania in general, plus Gibbons' art and the Predator's introduction, seem to argue pretty strongly for this reprint.
— Green Lantern #s 188-200 (May 1985-May 1986), written by Steve Englehart, pencilled by Joe Staton, and inked by Bruce Patterson. These issues starred John, but they brought Hal back into the Corps, returned Guy Gardner to active duty, put the Guardians out to stud, and tied into Crisis On Infinite Earths. There's also more Predator, plus Star Sapphire, Sinestro, and Guardian-lore, so I'd think it would have the same appeal as above.
— Justice League of America #s 139-46, 149-50 (February 1977-January 1978), written by Steve Englehart and pencilled by Dick Dillin. Englehart brought some of his Avengers mojo (not to mention a certain cosmic mom) to JLA, and one of his storylines inspired an animated "Justice League" two-parter. Superman died in one issue and got punched out by Wonder Woman in another; and the League finally caught up with disaffected ex-mascot Snapper Carr. At the time Englehart's run was somewhat controversial, but I've always thought it was a high point of the Satellite Era.
— The original Jason Todd origin, in Batman #s 357-66 and Detective Comics #s 524-33 (March-December 1983), written by Gerry Conway and Doug Moench, and pencilled by Don Newton and Gene Colan. These stories brought into the Bat-universe the Flying Todds, an oddly-familiar family-acrobat-act with an oddly-familiar fate. Now, in hindsight, this storyline is pretty much a blip in the overall history of Robin, the Boy Wonder. It was canonical for about four years before being retconned away by Max Allan Collins and Chris Warner in June 1987's Batman #408; and Jason's current backstory has been the law of the land ever since. Still, I like these issues as a good example of the cross-continuity between the Bat-titles in the 1980s, and also for the way they eased Dick Grayson out of the Robin role while still giving him a meaningful role in the series. Plus, there's some fine Don Newton art, which is always worth reprinting.
— Firestorm, written by Gerry Conway and John Ostrander, pencilled by Al Milgrom, George Pérez, Pat Broderick, Rafael Kayanan, Joe Brozowski, Tom Mandrake, et al. Firestorm is either a shameless example of a writer protecting his creation, a remarkable survivor, or a little of both. His first series only lasted five issues, but co-creator Gerry Conway put him in the Justice League not long after. He then found a home in backup stories in Flash, which led to a second series, which lasted an impressive 100 issues and featured a game-changing revamp just past the midway point. It would take about four Showcase books to tell the whole story, and I think some royalties might be in the way, but it would be worth it to see exactly why the Nuclear Man stayed popular throughout the '80s.
I could go on, even with stories not written by Steve Englehart, but you get the idea. I own many of these comics in single issues, but I certainly wouldn't mind having them in handy book form. (Not discounting a digital archive at all, but I still like paper.) I also think these comics are generally good, which kind of goes against this post's bad-comics-reprint theme.
Aha — but with DC collecting just about all of today's titles, clearly it is preserving at least a few bad comics for posterity, no? At a minimum, I imagine those comics are valuable on an informational level, as in "this may help you enjoy this other book over here." The bad comics of yore don't necessarily have that appeal … but they shouldn't all be dismissed as blog fodder, either.** DC has plenty of good-to-great comics it hasn't yet reprinted, and it has a whole lot of bad comics I'm in no hurry to see collected. The rest isn't all bad, and I'd like to think the missteps contain some teachable moments. We may never know, though, until DC pays more attention to the gaps in its permanent library.
* [Bob Rozakis wrote #7, my favorite single issue, but still.]
** [Mind you, I really have no desire to read The Green Team.]
There are so many things I want to see collected, but two stand out:
The Atlantis Chronicles, possibly the best DC work PAD ever did but impossible to find.
The Ostrander/Mandrake Spectre, just a great series from start to finish.
Where's the Evanier/Spiegel Blackhawk? In fact, do a combined hardcover of the comics and the William Rotsler novel (one of the best comic adaptation tales EVER!)
Atari Force (highly unlikely, due to licensing problems)
and I agree All-Star Squadron deserves a new audience…
I so wish chase would be collected already. Williams just won two eisners, get on it!
I also wish DC would keep some of their already-collected material in print, such as Mark Waid's Flash run. I've been wanting to read it for the longest time but Amazon lists it as out of print.
Major Bummer and finish up with the Hitman trades.
I have, for quite some time, longed to see all of the 60's Spectre appearances collected in one handy volume.
It continues to boggle my mind that the original Amethyst, Princess of Gemworld maxiseries (and DC Comics Presents issue) isn't put out in trade, and then immediately spun off in its own Johnny DC title. That series could still capture the hearts and minds of teen and pre-teen girls (and boys) in a heartbeat. I should know– I bought the entire series and gave it to a 13 year old girl a couple of years ago and she loved it.
And to bring Amethyst to Wonder Woman, for me the BEST Wonder Woman series of the 1980s is the criminally underrated (and probably never-to-be-reprinted) version written by Dan Mishkin (who created Amethyst) and drawn by Don Heck. I just stumbled across it completely by accident a while back and it became totally addicted. Exceedingly well characterized, plotted with real verve, featuring real charm, it's great 1980s superhero comics and made Wonder Woman come alive for me in comics for the first time in ages. It's a shame as I think everyone at the time (including me) wrote it off because it had a past-his-prime Don Heck drawing it (who is doing good work here).
The Atlantis Chronicles, possibly the best DC work PAD ever did but impossible to find.
All seven issues are available at MyComicShop.com, MileHighComics.com, ComicCollectorLive.com and in super-cheap lots on eBay.
This the age of easy-to-find back issues, effendi!
Reading John Ostrander/Kim Yale's interlocking Suicide Squad/Firestorm/Manhunter runs (along with Kupperberg's Checkmate & Ostrander's Captain Atom issues that tied into the Janus Directive crossover) all in floppy form was one of the greatest reading experiences of my life. It can all be gotten for a decent price too. Just check eBay for the complete runs…and fill in what you can't find on mycomicshop.com
Also yeah Atlantis Chonicles was quite excellent and very easy to order a complete set for cheap (and it's printed on that wonderful high-end flat paper DC used for certain books in the late 80s-early 90s!)
I always thought the Infinity Inc., Sword of the Atom, and the Gil Kane Supermans were great as well. I also liked the Giffen Dr. Fate back-up story from the Flash, but I think that actually has been reprinted. And speaking of Don Newton, I also loved his Captain Marvels from World's Finest and his Aquamans (didn't really care for his New Gods, though).
would love to see at least the batman issues telling jason todds first origin. plus suicide squad has been needing a good trade run. would also love the original spectre stories. but till dc can work the royalty issues .for reprinting any of that stuff mentioned here. that stuff is sadly going to be stuck in the vault of dc only to be looked at if fans track down back issues.
Captain Comet, Adam Strange after the Infantino era, The Immortal Man, Multi-Alien, Space Rovers and a lot more or DC's space material while not great comics was often a lot of fun to read.
Tom, every single one of the comics you mention is recent enough to find in the back issues bins — cheap. So why pine for reprints of them, when there are so many older and greater comics that are totally unavailable?
I yearn for stuff that can't be found in the back issue bins — like for example, the first ten issues of Sea Devils, all drawn by the amazing Russ Heath, all with those stunning "gray-tone" covers that Russ did with Jack Adler.
I've always been surprised that DC hasn't reprinted the Mark Millar/Phil Hester Swamp Thing run. Especially when Millar was doing Ultimates and Hester was on Green Arrow.
I don't think the current DC editorial cares much for its "old" stuff (particularly pre-Crisis material); most of the time an old character is brought back it either a) is twisted into something it wasn't meant to be (a killer, a victim etc.) or b) is just killed off. So I don't think they're particularly motivated to do reprints based on them except for major characters or series related somehow to stuff they're doing today (like Green Lantern.) Which is a shame because as mentioned there IS a wealth of good stories from those times (especially in the "Bronze Age") that even modern readers could enjoy if they just gave it a chance.
I really enjoyed that article, thanks Tom! Gave me some thought on things to look for next being a mainly DC dude.
I'll be going the back issue route as well, much nicer than waiting for trades and the adverts, paper stock and editorials/letters always give you a much better feel for the period and what else was going on in the universe at the time.
Like i said before: put _everything_ in Showcase collections right now and keep it in print.
I think the comments here prove me right.
DC seems to keep a 30-45 year distance until books get a Showcase treatment. So someone who wants to relive the stories he or she enjoyed in their youth would be 40 to 55 by the time DC collects them. I think they'd sell a lot more books if they'd reduce it to 20 years.
And i think the comments prove me right on that too, as most books mentioned are from the late 80s.
They did do a Showcase of Booster Gold, so it seems that they can go up to the mid-80s if it ties in a lot with a current series.
I'm probably the only one out there, but I would love to see a reprint of the Dr. Occult stories from New Fun/More Fun Comics. It's the creators of Superman on a "ghost detective" and I'm sure the whole series could be collected in a single trade paperback. Throw in Secret Origins #17 and you've got the whole shebang!
DC Entertainment just needs to sit down with everyone still alive,and the estates of the past on creators and rework the contracts for the "black" period of the mid 1970s-1980s.
Hopefully they'll do it when they negotate for digitial/on-line use.

Author Interviews
An Afghan Story: Khaled Hosseini and 'Kite Runner'
The Kite Runner, the debut novel by Afghani-born physician and author Khaled Hosseini, has been on best-seller and book club lists for nearly a year. Writer Isabel Allende says the book — about a young man who returns to Afghanistan after a long absence — is "one of those unforgettable stories that stays with you for years."
Hosseini, like the protagonist in his novel, left Afghanistan when he was boy and didn't return for decades. Hosseini was 11 when his family left, before the Soviet invasion. His father was a diplomat, and the family was granted political asylum in America.

AbstractThe Navy and USMC are embarking on an aggressive power and energy program for applications in surface and underwater vehicles as well as expeditionary systems. Limited by either shipboard space and weight or portability, the Navy and USMC require innovative technology solutions to increase electrical energy conversion efficiency and density in order to reduce volume, weight, and cost. The goal of the research is; to find innovative power solutions to reduce the variety of equipment that is required to accomplish missions, to reduce size and weight of power conversion units/inverters to better support the mission goals, to improve the thermal management of such units to reduce their weight and to increase their reliability and operational capabilities. We will develop a concept for the above universal power inverter/converter using state-of-the-art and emerging technologies. We will identify all the critical areas of the design: the overall topology of the power inverter, power switching technology, emerging concepts for self contained cooling and thermal management, strategies to improve power management, power quality, and advanced prognostics and diagnostics that might include partial self-reconfiguration as required.

I have a menu I'm using for a website and it uses some javascript to create some fading effects. The problem I'm having is that the submenu is not visible until one of the main links is hovered over. The stylesheet for the submenu calls out
display: none which obviously shows nothing when the page is loaded. I want the submenu to show right away since it is visible in my design. The website is here.
I have tried to remove the

The Japanese regulatory authorities approved Sandoz' biosimilar recombinant human growth hormone somatropin. The approval is the first ever for a biosimilar in Japan, Sandoz remarks. It follows just three months after the Japanese authorities published guidelines for a national regulatory route for biosimilar products based on the EU's existing process. The product will be marketed in Japan as Somatropin. It is indicated for the treatment of growth hormone deficiency in children and growth disruption associated with Turner's syndrome or chronic renal insufficiency. These are the same indications covered by the reference product, Pfizer's Genotropin®, which made worldwide sales of $898 million in 2008 (up 6% from 2007). The Sandoz biosimilar was previously approved in both Europe and the U.S. in 2006, where it is marketed as Omnitrope, and was the first biosimilar sanctioned in Europe. The Japanese growth hormone biosimilar approval follows the February sanction in Europe for Sandoz' neutropenia biosimilar, filgrastim. It is approved to stimulate production of white blood cells in chemotherapy patients, the same range of indications as its reference product, Amgen's Neupogen®. Amgen's drug made worldwide sales of $1.3 billion in 2008. The company's Epoetin alfa biosimilar, Binocrit®/Epoietin alfa Hexal®, was approved in the EU in 2007 as a direct competitor to Ortho Biotech's Procrit®/Eprex®, worldwide sales of which declined 14.7% in 2008 to $2.5 billion.Part of Novartis, Sandoz reports that it is pioneering the emerging biosimilars market. The company claims that by 2010, some 50% of newly approved medicines will be biopharmaceuticals, as an increasing number of major biotechnology-based medicines come off patent and face generic competition.

Leahy: Farm bill includes dairy aidMay 25,2013MONTPELIER Vermonts senior U.S. senator says he hopes a farm bill now working its way through Congress will save taxpayer money while continuing assistance for dairy farmers and conservation programs.
Leahy says the farm bill which the Senate will resume working on after the Memorial Day recess replaces the existing dairy program with a retooled system focused on avoiding an oversupply of milk.
He said its hoped that the new approach will smooth out what have been big fluctuations in wholesale milk prices.
Meanwhile, Leahy said the farm bills conservation programs include new incentives for farmers to address runoff that has been blamed for polluting Lake Champlain and rivers feeding it.MORE IN This Just In

Milwaukee Film Festival picks: Day Eleven
One regrettable, if inevitable, occurrence during a film festival is that films you want to see often play opposite each other. That occurs Sunday at the Milwaukee Film Festival with parallel screenings of "The Act of Killing" (Downer Theatre) and "Big Star: Nothing Can Hurt Me" (Fox-Bay Cinema Grill), both at 8 p.m.
"The Act of Killing" is an appalling yet compelling and strangely beautiful documentary in which the Indonesian gangsters and paramilitary group members who killed 1 million Chinese "communists" in 1965 re-create their crimes as surreal movie scenes. »Read Full Blog Post

By Yvette Smith, Courier staff May 23, 2014
FORT CAMPBELL, Ky. -- Today's military communities are unique reflections of the world, comprised of people from all over the globe, and as a U.S. Department of Defense Education Activity school, Barsanti Elementary School embraced that diversity through a cultural event May 16.
Barsanti held its second annual International Day, transforming its main hallway into a travel gateway with 14 international destinations represented through colorful and informative stations.
"Today we are celebrating the diversity in the military community," said Sylvia Crawford, Barsanti student council and gifted resource teacher. "Our students have been born all over the world and the people that serve in our military are from all over the world as well, so we wanted to give the kids a sense of their background, their heritage, geography and to let them know that there is a big world out there and how very interesting all these places are."
Cultural music filled the air as students rotated to visit different countries and territories, handing each travel station chief their "passports" at arrival.
"When they stop and talk to people at each station, they get a stamp, just like they would traveling around the world," said Crawford. "Now they have an international passport, which they can keep to remember the places they visited."
The event showcased a variety of cultures, displaying items such as books, pottery and food items. Each station also displayed a map indicating the location of the featured country or territory.
The event also provided students structured academic activities like a scavenger and question hunt, which required students to ask questions at each station visited and then complete a questionnaire which quizzed them on various topics about the featured countries.
"I'm learning about all the different countries and how they eat and stuff, what their language is about, so I can visit some of these countries in the future," said fourth grader Avrin McGinnis.
Students were able to travel to South America and stop in El Salvador, then continue to the Caribbean Islands and Puerto Rico, head to Africa and stop in Ghana, rotate north to visit European countries Ireland, Hungary, England, Germany, Italy, France, Greece and finish their travel around the world in Asia with visits to Japan, Korea and Vietnam.
Specialist Anthony Amonoo, Company B, 2nd Battalion, 320th Field Artillery, 1st Brigade Combat Team, 101st Airborne Division, who is originally from Ghana, volunteered his time after his first sergeant told him about the event.
"I am here to just help the kids out," said Amonoo, dressed a Ghanaian smock. "I am here to teach them a little about Ghana, like its location, the capital, interests and our culture."
At the England station, students were treated to cookies and tea and were able to browse through popular children's classic English literature, making it a popular destination.
"I visited England briefly while stationed in Germany and mentioned I had a teapot, and so here we are -- having tea and cookies," said parent volunteer Stacey Bohon, laughing.
At station Vietnam, children participated in language-based activities, learning useful phrases and practicing them out loud.
"A couple years ago, I visited North Vietnam," said Crawford, dressed in a blue and gold silk sarong and bamboo hat. "It was very fascinating, very beautiful country. I hope to acquaint the kids with some of the geography, map of Vietnam, their currency and give them a little sense of the language."
Third grader Vanity Moreno said she learned about countries she never knew existed.
"I had never heard of Hungary or Ghana," said Moreno. "My favorite station was Korea. I liked the artwork they had at the table. I thought it was pretty. They said Korean words -- we couldn't really understand it, but they told us the meaning."
Kathleen Cheon, a parent volunteer representing Korea, dazzled children by wearing her wedding hanbok, which according to fourth grader Ariana Warsing, made her look like a princess.
"She was so cute!" said Ariana. "I really enjoy this, where people from different countries can represent their country. I have never been to Korea and I learned their rice is purple and I didn't know. I am very excited to go to the rest of these but really excited to go to El Salvador [station] because my Mom's side of the Family is from El Salvador."
According to Crawford, this year's event was a huge success, greatly due to an increase of volunteers.
"This year we thought we would incorporate visuals that children can see, touch, feel and thankfully we have had incredible parent participation," said Crawford.
"We are an unusual community, the military. We have people from all over the world and the kids should know and appreciate that."
"With this, they can see a bigger picture of their world," said Crawford. "We want them to think big, not small."

The measure that passed in the House on Wednesday is unlikely go anywhere in the Senate, and the House is unlikely to revisit the issue once the new Republican leadership takes over.
The Dream Act would provide qualified people up to the age of 29 with a path to citizenship if they attend college or join the military, while mandating decades before they could petition for family.
Opponents have said it will hurt Americans at a time when the nation already faces 9.8 percent unemployment.
Some also say the age cap of 29 is too old.

Overlong and self-indulgent, Baz Luhrmann's homage to epic adventure films feels like a slog through the outback itself. And yet it can be a visually wondrous journey, one with striking visuals that will take your breath away again and again. No one ever doubted the director's capabilities as an inventive aesthetic stylist -- this is the man, after all, who dared to set the balcony scene in a swimming pool in his revisionist of "Romeo + Juliet," who turned "Moulin Rouge!" into a dizzying dance of light and color, complete with Elton John and Nirvana songs. Here, he focuses his considerable talents on a more traditional genre: the big, old-fashioned, wartime romance. The result is grandiose and dazzling, repetitive and predictable. Set in pre-World War II, "Australia" stars Nicole Kidman as the British aristocrat Lady Sarah Ashley, who travels to the Northern Territory ranch of Faraway Downs to confront the absent husband she suspects of philandering. She immediately clashes with the roguishly charming Drover (Hugh Jackman in full-on Sexiest-Man-Alive mode), who works on the ranch, and Luhrmann is clearly aiming to replicate the kind of chemistry Bogart and Hepburn enjoyed in "The African Queen" with their antagonistically flirty banter. Once Lady Ashley discovers her husband is dead, it's no big shocker that she finds herself falling in love with the place, and with the Drover (and really, how could she resist?). It also comes as no surprise that, after expressing zero fondness for children, she experiences maternal instincts for the impish Aboriginal boy Nullah (Brandon Walters), who's adorable but also an unfortunate racial stereotype. PG-13 for some violence, a scene of sensuality and brief strong language. 155 min. Two stars out of four.

John Thomas Dodson was in New York some time ago when he heard about this gifted young cellist who had played in a concert at the Manhattan School of Music and, as he put it, "won everybody over."
So, the Adrian Symphony Orchestra's music director sought out the young musician's cello teacher at the school, Marion Feldman, to find out more. That conversation led to his first meeting with 11-year-old Sujari Britt. And he was as struck by her as everybody else he'd talked to was, finding her to be not only a talented young musician but also someone who carries herself with great poise for her age while still living the life of an 11-year-old.
It wasn't long before Dodson decided he wanted to bring Britt to Adrian to play. And so, this Friday, May 18, and Saturday, May 19, she will be the featured performer in this season's ASO Casual Classic concert.
Both evening's performances are at 8 p.m. at Father Williams Hall, St. Joseph Church, 415 Ormsby St., Adrian. Tickets are $25 for adults and $23 for senior citizens, and are available by calling the ASO at 264-3121 or online at www.adriansymphony.org.
Casual Classic concerts are informal performances featuring table seating and a cash bar. Groups of six or more can have tables reserved for them.
For these two concerts, Britt will perform a movement from Bach's Suite for Unaccompanied Cello, "The Swan" from Saint-Saens' "Carnival of the Animals," the second movement of Boccherini's Concerto No. 9 for cello, and the Haydn Cello Concerto in C Major, a work which Dodson said "is not a small thing for a rather young person to do."
During the first half of the concert, the music will be interspersed with conversation between Dodson and his young soloist.
The pair will discuss what it is like to not even be a teenager yet and to have won the Associated Music Teachers League scholarship competition; played at the White House, which she did at the age of 8 in a 2009 student recital and workshop, performing with cellist Alisa Weilerstein; been featured on National Public Radio and appeared on national television; played at Carnegie Hall's Weill Recital Hall as a national young musicians' competition winner; and more.
The conversation will also touch upon how Britt manages to be both a talented young musician and lead a typical pre-teen's life.
"She's gifted while being able to interact with the world and have friends and a normal life," Dodson said.
Britt started studying cello at the age of 5 — after already learning how to play the piano and the violin. She and her siblings, sister Joelle and brother Sunaj, perform together as a string trio called JoSunJari.
Page 2 of 2 - She is currently enrolled in the Manhattan School of Music's Precollege Division, where she studies with Feldman. "Marion has produced some very accomplished cellists, and she's very taken with this young lady," Dodson said.
At the same time, Britt is homeschooled and enjoys composing music, sketching, and writing fiction.
Dodson said he hopes that these Casual Classic performances will show audience members "the importance of having dreams, and for adults to see this ball of fire looking for a place to blaze with all this talent."
"It's not uncommon for an orchestra to present a young artist, but it is rare to explore with them what it's like to be them," he said.
"I think a lot of people have realized there is something special about her. She is poised and charming and funny, and has a tremendous work ethic along with this joie de vivre."

A view back toward Beacon harbor from the Newburgh-Beacon bridge.
Invisible from the road in the summer, note the plaque on a rock in the woods, just above the top tube in this picture
While I was taking a photograph of the Goudy tribute across the street, an older Australian couple came by on bicycles and, after I offered to take their picture, they took mine. Lucky you!
Not far from Goudy's place is the Gomez Mill House. In 1714 Luis Moses Gomez, who as a child, had fled with his family from the Spanish inquisition, purchased 6,000 acres of land along the Hudson Highlands where several Indian trails converged. Read more at http://www.gomez.org/millhouse.html
Across the road is this little waterwheel, built later.
The house proper. The fieldstone wall is the original house layout from 1714.
There are lots of apple orchards and vineyards in Marlboro, NY.

Just a few days ago on this loop, there was no hint of autumn color.

Back home at Bank Square coffee house for some chocolate milk and a donut.
Even without fenders, long dropouts make getting an inflated 32mm tire in and out a pain.With hardware on hand, the locknut was too close to the tire, so I added the second spacer on the other side of the bridge.

STOCKTON, Calif. (AP) -- A central California Roman Catholic diocese has declared bankruptcy after paying out millions of dollars to plaintiffs in sexual abuse allegations over the past two decades.
The Diocese of Stockton, which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection Wednesday in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Sacramento, serves an ethnically diverse population of about 250,000 Catholics in a region spanning more than 10,000 square miles. It has paid more than $14 million in settlements and judgments to victims of sexual abuse, and its insurance providers have paid an additional $18 million.
"We have, over 20 years, tried to address every sexual abuse allegation that has come forward," said Bishop Stephen E. Blaire, who leads the diocese.
"While it's painful and difficult" to declare bankruptcy, he told The Associated Press, "I think it's the right thing to do," and "it will allow us to continue our work as a church."
The diocese's attorney, Steven Felderstein, said it had roughly $17 million in outstanding debts and that its legal fees for the bankruptcy easily could be $1 million or more.
"The diocese would be responsible for not only its attorneys' fees but for the creditors' committee's attorneys' fees," Felderstein said.
There are also four outstanding sexual abuse cases. Because the diocese is running so low on cash, it's not in a position to settle those claims, let alone claims of victims who might come forward in the future, Blaire told the AP.
Payouts for sexual abuse plaintiffs often are upward of $1.5 million, Blaire said, and a recent one was more than $3 million.
"We just don't have that kind of money anymore," he said, adding the diocese has less than $1 million in its reserve fund. He said the bankruptcy is the only way to be fair to current and future victims.
Felderstein said that because of the filing, a deadline eventually will be set for additional abuse claims.
In the meantime, Felderstein said he soon will be filing motions with the court to request the authority to make payroll for any wages incurred before the filing; to ask to continue using the diocese's current cash-management system; and to order utility companies to keep services on.
"We are in this situation because of those priests in our diocese who perpetrated grave, evil acts of child sexual abuse," Blaire noted in a statement. "We can never forget that these evil acts, not the victims of the abuse, are responsible for the financial difficulties we now face."

For the third consecutive year, the top three players in the world rankings have been drawn together at the year's second Major, a popular ploy that generates plenty of hype and attracts huge galleries during tournament week.
Woods, who will be seeking his first Major title since he won the 2008 U.S. Open at Torrey Pines in a play-off, is a heavy favourite for the June 13-16 championship at Merion Golf Club after winning four times in eight starts on the 2013 PGA Tour.
American Woods, Northern Irishman McIlroy, who won the 2011 U.S. Open at Congressional, and Australian Scott will start Thursday's opening round at Merion off the first tee at 13:14 local time (18:14 UK).
The heavyweight trio will then set off from the 11th tee at 07:44 in Friday's second round.
In keeping with tradition, tournament officials have placed defending champion Webb Simpson in the same group as the Open champion and the reigning U.S. Amateur winner.
American Simpson will tee off from the first hole at 13:36 on Thursday in the company of South African Ernie Els, a twice former U.S. Open champion, and amateur Steven Fox.
In other high-profile groupings, former world number ones Luke Donald and Lee Westwood of England have been paired up with Martin Kaymer of Germany while U.S. Ryder Cup players Bubba Watson and Dustin Johnson will play alongside fellow long hitter Nicolas Colsaerts of Belgium.
South Africans Louis Oosthuizen, Charl Schwartzel and Tim Clark have been grouped together, as have leading Americans Phil Mickelson, Steve Stricker and Keegan Bradley.
American world number four Matt Kuchar, among the favourites at Merion after winning last week's Memorial Tournament in Dublin, Ohio, will tee off with fifth-ranked Englishman Justin Rose and sixth-ranked American Brandt Snedeker.
Simpson will defend the title he clinched by one shot last year at Olympic Club outside San Francisco after overhauling overnight leaders Jim Furyk and Graeme McDowell.
Intriguingly, former champions Furyk (2003) and McDowell (2010) have been grouped together at Merion, with American Zach Johnson, in a trio of medium-length hitters.
US Open groupings (first time listed is for opening round, times are all local, add four hours for GMT, players U.S. unless noted, a- denotes amateur):
