SANTA CLARA -- At the end of a cul-de-sac in an industrial stretch near the freeway here, Andrew Le looks out over a concrete shop floor where he is pursuing an ambition that few in their right minds would tackle in 2012: manufacturing desktop computers in the heart of Silicon Valley.
Everybody knows that if you're going to manufacture computers or personal electronics, you do it the way Apple (AAPL) does: in Chinese factory compounds as big as cities with hundreds of thousands of workers turning out millions and millions of gadgets for consumers in the United States and around the world.
Everybody but Le knows that, anyway. His White Leaf USA has produced not millions, but 1,000 computers in the past year. His production crew of about 15 works on the colorful and smartly designed desktops in between machining precision parts for the semiconductor, medical device, aerospace and defense industries.
"That's kind of our main goal, to bring manufacturing and production back into the United States and into the valley," Le says. "Our goal is to show that it can work."
Bringing manufacturing back is an idea that carries tremendous currency these days. From water cooler conversations to chamber of commerce luncheons to the presidential debates, everyone seems to have a plan. Even Apple CEO Tim Cook hinted recently that the Cupertino giant is scheming to bring some production work back home. Of course, this being hyper-tight-lipped Apple, the company won't say exactly what Cook meant when he said he'd like to see Apple products made in the United States.
"There are things we can do," Cook said in May at the D: All Things Digital Conference, "and that's what we are working on."
I'm not suggesting that Cook, 51, who apparently wants to increase domestic manufacturing, could learn something from Le, 23, who is manufacturing domestically. After all, Cook runs the most valuable company on the planet and Le's fledgling computer operation couldn't survive without support from the machining business that houses it. But the two companies -- White Leaf USA and Apple -- do provide a fascinating view into the revival of manufacturing in the Bay Area and the complex set of ingredients that make the region a logical place for some manufacturers, but not others.
That economic reality is the topic of this latest installment in a series of occasional columns looking at the surprising health and the budding resurgence of manufacturing in the Bay Area. Despite a struggling economy, the number of manufacturing jobs in Silicon Valley has grown in the past two years. Those production jobs tend to be in small operations, relying on automation and making early iterations of high-tech devices or producing highly specialized products.
Which gets us back to Apple and White Leaf. Apple makes a staggering number of the same product over and over again -- a model suited to factories filled with a low-wage and extremely flexible workforce surrounded by suppliers and other companies that have grown up over the years to support the production and transportation of its products. White Leaf produces a relatively few early-iteration computers with several hardware and software configurations -- a model suited to a small workforce on production lines close to designers and executives making the final decisions.
"Our argument is: Depending on how mature the production process is, or how modular your product is, if you have a very mature process and a very modular product, it's probably OK to ship that stuff off," says Harvard University business professor Willy Shih, who with colleague Gary Pisano just finished writing "Producing Prosperity: Why America Needs a Manufacturing Renaissance."
So, think of Apple as mature and modular. And think of White Leaf as not so much.
It's the reason Apple, other computer-makers, semiconductor manufacturers, component producers and companies making other popular consumer devices moved their production to Asia years ago. And it's a key reason why such large-scale manufacturers are not coming back to the Bay Area.
In the beginning, mass manufacturers left in pursuit of cheap labor. But today, with Chinese wages rising, the reasons that companies manufacture there are far more complicated. Apple, for instance, relies on hundreds of thousands of Chinese workers to build its products. Competitive demands and the pinpoint timing of major product launches mean that Apple wants those workers, or the companies employing them, to be able to ramp up at warp speed and turn on a dime.
"People go to China not because it's cheap, but because it's fast and flexible," says Andy Tsay, a Santa Clara University business professor who has studied Apple's supply chain. "Apple has been on the record saying they simply couldn't get that kind of responsiveness here. I come away with the idea that work/life balance is kind of an American concept or a Western concept."
The most sophisticated factory packed with robots is not nearly as flexible as a factory staffed by an army of humans, Tsay says. Humans can be temporarily idled, laid off, asked to do different tasks, work overtime. They can be awakened in the middle of the night to begin work on a redesigned process. And while robots can be pliable workers, they are a fixed cost -- a drag on the bottom line, whether they are working or not.
Le doesn't need a massive workforce. In fact, his desktop initiative grew out of the fact that the volatile nature of making parts for other companies means there are slow times when orders aren't coming fast enough to keep everyone busy. Le decided to look for a product his employees could make in the slow times, rather than cutting their hours or laying them off.
What he and his employees came up with was a line of desktop computers in black, blue and pink that are compact -- about 9 inches by 8 inches by 4 inches for the smallest model -- and retail for $420 to $1,500. No question the desktop market is crowded and hardly a hot spot for sales, but technology analyst Rob Enderle says a distinctive computer like White Leaf's might well appeal to consumers who want to stand out in a world of me-too tech gadgets.
"It's folks that like to have the status of something on their desks that kind of shows off their uniqueness. It's not something that everybody else has," he says.
Like every other PC-maker, Le would kill for Apple's profit-margin on its Macs, which analysts say is likely higher than 30 percent on the machines, which start at $999. But, he says, he's managed to achieve margins above 10 percent.
And Le has some pricing advantages that Apple doesn't enjoy. For one thing, White Leaf is privately held, and while Le aspires to be profitable, he is not subject to shareholder pressure for ever-increasing profits. He's also marketing a new product in something of a niche, given the size of the desktops he's turning out. He figures that allows him to set prices at $25 to $50 higher than comparable desktops, though he's prepared to make adjustments depending on consumer reaction.
Last year, Le found himself rather suddenly running White Leaf's parent company, AM&S Manufacturing. AM&S was founded in 2007 by his mother, Minh Do Le, who for years worked as an engineer in Silicon Valley. After doctors told Minh Do Le that her breast cancer had spread through her body, she asked her son to return from Paris, where he was studying international relations, to take over the business. Minh Do Le died at age 50 in July 2011.
"One of her biggest things was that she wanted to take care of her employees and she wanted to open up opportunities for people in the U.S., in an industry that she loved," Le says. "And so we wanted, or at least I wanted, to honor her, to continue that."
Le's U.S. manufacturing strategy has worked well for him so far. As I've written before, keeping manufacturing close to headquarters means companies can spot needed changes and make them quickly. Le says White Leaf has made seven modifications to its computers' chassis in the past year and that factory workers have made suggestions that have trimmed production costs.
"We believe anybody in our shop could come up with the next big idea," he says.
Apple, of course, is a different story. The advantages of proximity for the $500 billion company were eclipsed long ago by the efficiencies of enormous outside contractors. It was Cook, as Apple's chief operations officer, who presided over the company's move to hand off manufacturing to outside contractors, notably Foxconn, which supplies the world's iPods, iPhones and iPads.
"We decided over a decade ago that there were things that we could do better than anyone else and those things we wanted to do ourselves," Cook explained at the All Things Digital conference. Manufacturing, he added, was not one of those things. Cook is quick to point out that processors for the iPhone and the iPads are manufactured in Texas and that the gorilla glass for iPhones is made in a factory in Kentucky. But Tsay says any notion that Apple will start assembling iPods, iPhones and iPads in the United States is sheer fantasy.
"It would be a massive undertaking. Do we even have the capacity to ramp up something of that scale that quickly in the U.S.?" Tsay says. "Foxconn has hundreds of thousands of employees in their industrial park. That's like creating a small town overnight."
White Leaf's Le could only wish for such grand problems. Still, the young entrepreneur says the world hasn't seen anything yet from White Leaf. He sees a profitable company churning out 4,000 to 5,000 desktops a month -- preferably in Silicon Valley.
If Le's company were sitting anywhere else in the country, it might be hard to take his optimism seriously. But in Silicon Valley, the story of a young entrepreneur working to turn convention upside down by focusing on eye-catching computers, designed for high performance, has a familiar ring.
"I've always been interested in business models," Le says. "And one big business model, of course, is Apple and the idea of design. We can design the heck out of stuff."
And if geography is destiny, it should be noted that the gold-plated company that Tim Cook is now leading was launched in a bedroom at a young man's house about 10 miles away from the industrial park where Le stares out at his shop floor.

|Tea Bowl, chawan, by George Gledhill. Gas-fired, kohiki matcha chawan, shino feldspar glaze. H.3.125"(8cm) x Dia.5.625"(14.24cm) x Footring Dia.2"(5cm). There have been several influences to George Gledhills ceramic work. Buddhism has been a guiding force in life for many years, and George even visits local prisons to teach the Dharma to inmates. Through pottery and Buddhism, he was exposed to Tea practitioners who complimented his work and encouraged him to produce Tea wares. Their introduction to the world of Tea Ceremony has helped to shape much of his recent work. In the past, George served in the Peace Corps in Bolivia, working with local potters and using only materials available locally. They dug all of the clay, made the bricks, built the kilns, and formulated glazes from whatever materials they could find. The only firing fuel was wood. This experience led to a great respect for the results of working with unprocessed materials, and especially for the magical qualities of wood firing a primitive kiln. These pots were fired in an anagama kiln (built by George ten years ago) on Georges farm in Payette, Idaho a few years ago. They are primarily wood-fired, created using mainly raw materials available in the Pacific Northwest. The whole process is marked by a great deal of physical labor, but this is the only way to get the results he desires. Currently, George is on the West Coast taking a break from making pots to further his studies in Buddhism.

Jane Quartarone and Delainey Barklay's creative processes are similar in nature in that, fluidity of thought, concept and materials is not unfamiliar territory to them. Combining paintings with a playful and bouyant "Humidity Garden" with the element of melting ice seems to pool the two bodies of work together.
The common themes of my work are texture, repetition, layering and the simplification of images. These elements occur throughout individual pieces as well as series of works. Stylized base components are meant to be quickly absorbed, like viewable shorthand. The idea of reduction can also be found in the restricted pallet and the controlled texture. The obvious and subtle repetitive elements are calculated and done with thought; they weave through layers of individual paintings as well as my entire body of work.

The prosecution rested its case Wednesday after the first day of the testimony in the trial against former Lowell resident Larry G. Blair, who is accused of raping a family member.
The trial is expected to wrap up today after the defense presents its witnesses.
Blair was charged with first-degree felony rape and faces up to 11 years in prison, if convicted.
Washington County prosecutors called six witness Wednesday, beginning with the 38-year-old victim. Through sobs and with a quiet voice, she recalled to jurors her version of events as they took place Feb. 10 and 11, the time frame of the alleged rape.
After a night of drinking at The Four Seasons and The Locker Room, the victim willingly returned with Blair, her uncle, to his residence at 565 Fleming Road, Lowell. After the victim talked with Blair and his brother about "normal family stuff", she said.
"Was there any talk about you and the defendant having sexual relations?" asked Washington County Assistant Prosecutor Kevin Rings.
The victim maintained there was not.
Blair did not ask, but rather ordered his brother to go to bed, she said. Then as she was trying to use the restroom, Blair overpowered and raped her, said the victim.
When asked by Rings if she screamed for help during the attacks, the victim answered that she did so at least three times.
Blair's defense attorneys did not directly question the victim as to why Blair's brother, Daniel, who commonly goes by the name Jake, did not hear her cries or come to her rescue. However, defense attorney Shawna Landaker did reiterate that a struggle would have caused noise.
Jake was not called upon Wednesday to testify and it is not known if the defense will call him today.
Sgt. Scott Mankins with the Washington County Sheriff's Office said while testifying that Jake noted in his statement that he had gone to bed that night with both the radio and his breathing apparatus turned on.
Mankins also mentioned that sometime after the initial allegations, he received an email from Washington County Sheriff's Office Chief Deputy Mark Warden saying that Jake wanted to talk to him. However, Washington County Common Pleas Court Judge Susan Boyer did not allow Mankins to elaborate on what Jake wanted to discuss.
Mankins testified that the victim contacted the sheriff's office the morning after the rape being alleged and submitted to a rape kit at Marietta Memorial Hospital. Mankins and another officer questioned Blair that same day. Blair denied having any sexual contact with the victim, both verbally and in a sworn deposition, but did agree to have his home searched and allowed officers to take a DNA swab, said Mankins.
DNA samples were also taken from the rape kit. The Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner, or SANE nurse, who performed the rape kit also testified, saying the victim was visibly upset and crying at the hospital that day.
The nurse testified that she did not find any significant injuries on the victim, but said that in her experience physical injuries and rape cases do not always go hand in hand.
A forensic scientist for the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation testified about the link between the swab voluntarily given by Blair and that produced by the rape kit.
"We were able to successfully separate the DNA samples and provide one that matched the victim's known sample and one that matched the defendant's known sample," said forensic scientist Heather Bizub of the evidence provided by the rape kit.
The BCI does not go so far as to implicitly say a DNA sample belongs to one individual, but they do give a rarity statistic. The DNA in Blair's case has a one in 403 quintillion likelihood of being duplicated in someone else.
"I think it's a million trillions," said Bizub when asked to explain the number.
Two of the victim's friends also testified. The first had been drinking with the victim the night the rape occurred and said the woman had been drinking but wasn't drunk.
The other friend testified that the victim had woken her up in the early morning hours after the rape, crying and pounding on her door.
The trial resumes at 9 a.m. today in Washington County Common Pleas Judge Susan Boyer's courtroom.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) - The West Virginia Senate has passed its first bills of the 2013 session, clarifying language on what would disqualify potential jurors and imposing specific and harsher penalties for graffiti.
The jury bill passed Wednesday would disqualify potential jurors who have been found guilty of a crime punishable by more than one year in prison.
The graffiti bill would make graffiti a separate offense from the more generic "crimes against property." It creates sentencing guidelines for graffiti offenses.
A first offense could be punishable with up to six months in jail and $1,000 fine. On a third offense, graffiti would rise from a misdemeanor to a felony and would be punishable by a minimum of one year in jail.
Both bills will now be sent to the House for consideration.

FHP: Couple argued before he was fatally struck by car
Published: Friday, February 14, 2014 at 4:34 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, February 14, 2014 at 4:34 p.m.
VENICE - Joan and Gary Lamson had argued in the driveway outside their Pelican Pointe home before the car she was driving struck and killed him last month, dragging him several feet, according to a newly released traffic report.
CLICK HERE to read the Florida Highway Patrol report on the fatal accident.
Joan Lamson, 71, told investigators that they argued in the driveway on Jan. 28 at about 10 a.m. as Gary Lamson, 69, stood in front of the couple's 2010 Lexus LS460.
Joan Lamson was in the driver's seat and, according to the Florida Highway Patrol report, "for an unknown reason (Joan) failed to observe (Gary) in the driveway and proceeded forward heading southbound."
The FHP report said Lamson's body was dragged about 20 feet before the car stopped on top of him, partly in the driveway and partly in the road, Grouse Way.
Troopers estimated that the car was going as fast as 20 mph before it stopped and noted acceleration marks near the scene.
Gary Lamson was declared dead at Venice Medical Regional Center from his injuries.
The Lexus struck Gary Lamson with the front of the driver's side of the car. The report said the driver's vision was not obscured and she was not distracted.
Joan Lamson declined to comment on the report.
FHP Lt. Greg Bueno said the case is still under investigation, though no charges have been filed. The traffic report concluded that the driver was operating the vehicle in a careless or negligent manner.
"One of the reasons why we conduct these investigations is to determine what occurred, and whether or not it was an infraction or criminal," Bueno said.

Howdy again,
A question. Do you remember your first 5k?
I'm wondering how your confidence level was....did you know you would finish or did ya think "gee...what am I doing?"
(struggling, but not giving up)
Of course, you always remember your first!!!
I knew I would finish
.......easy enough ( since I've only run TWO )
........I had been racing for several years back then, they hosted a 5-K and it was such a Freak Distance, we all signed up for it.......(in the 70's and 80's the races were 10-K or Marathon)
........then we had to beat a TRAIN accross the road about a mile from the start,,,,,,,,the Middle of the Pack got stranded, so I thought I had at least 3rd Place sewed up,
NOT,,,,,,never even saw the rabbits that beat me out of it......
.......ran a 22-something........
...(and thought I was Greased Lightning)......

Oh darn.
I do not remember my first 5K.
I hardly remember my first marathon.
I do remember what I had for breakfast, though.
Welcome to the B&B.
You will finish.
And here's something to use as a mantra...
"Quitting is not an option"
(Thank you Tim Looney, Western States Finisher)

With good cause... !http://www.coolrunning.com/forums/smile.gif|src=http://www.coolrunning.com/forums/smile.gif|border=0!
I knew I would finish my first 5K because I was already running longer than that, but what surprised me was that, slow as I was, there were lots of people even slower (of course, most of them were walking, but still....).
I remember it fairly well, even though it was almost 30 years ago.
I was a college sophomore, who had moved up from the 880 yard and mile from the previous year. I had planned to be a miler, but at the end of indoor had run a couple of pretty good 2 mile races, so they made me into a 5000 runner.
Our first outdoor meet that year was at Central College in Pella, IA. It was cloudy, cool, and blustery. I had no clue what I was doing, and unfortunately neither did the coach who told me to run the same pace as my 2 mile. Went out in 5:00 for the first mile, right behind the leaders, and faded with something like a 5:20 and 5:30, to finish in 16:31. Actually, not a bad debut, but at the time everybody (coach & teamates) said it was pretty poor.
It took another 5 or 6 years to really get to know how to work the 5k, which to this day I think is one of the toughest distances to do well.
Ah, I remember my first 5K quite fondly. (is it bad to say that I actually remember more about this then I do the first time I had sex?? )
I ran for a little over one year when I was 30/31. My co-worker was planning on running Seattle's St. Patrick's Day Run and asked if I'd like to run with her (I had recently split up with my ex and was working out alot, but not running . . . I think she felt sorry for me so wanted to get me out there amongst the masses and do something fun). I said "sure" - BUT, I had never run, so decided 4 wks before the run to start running on the TM at the gym. I could do 2-3 min at first. that's it. I got up to being able to run about 2 miles before the St. Patty's Day Dash and told my friend that I'd likely take a break to walk about half way through and not to wait for me.
Well, imagine my surprise when we are running towards the King Street area of the Alaskan Way viaduct in Seattle (seattle-ites will know where I'm talking about) and she tells me we are close to the finish! I ran the whole thing w/o stopping and had a blast doing it! I think my time was around 37 min, but I could have cared less - I'd been bitten by the bug and couldn't wait to do more!

........if the Person you had it with reads this, ,,,,,Yes.........
It was a long time ago. My supervisor in grad school was a marathon runner. I was not a runner and biking to school was pretty much my only exercise. He roped a bunch of us into doing it. It might have been a Terry Fox run, so lots of expectations to join and raise money for cancer research (we did basic research).
Anyway, my hubby and I ran together, and a few memories stand out - having to walk up a huge hill, getting passed by a mentally & physically handicapped runner, and finishing around the same time as the 10K runners. I remember being absolutely astounded that one of my husband's co-workers could run a 5 K in 25 minutes. I thought that was ridiculously fast. And a female co-worker (who ran cross-country in college) finished her 10 K in about 45 minutes. I felt way out of my league, thanks boss!
He also roped me into the 2 to 3 am slot in a 24 hr relay. I am not a night owl and could barely stay awake to go to the relay. It was around a track, monotonous, in the dark, in the pouring rain, and I had to run for an hour. I must have done a lot of walking!
So, not being impressed with this whole running thing, I didn't really do anymore of it for 17 years.
I am still waiting to run my first "real" 5 K as a new-born runner. I used to think my boss and others like him (that ran marathons) as obsessive compulsive types that I could never relate to. Running seemed like the ultimate in a boring painful existence that you could inflict upon yourself. What I didn't yet know about was the endorphins...., or that if you take it slow enough, it is not painful but quite relaxing and enjoyable.
Anyway, I am hoping to run my first "real" 5K around 26-27 minutes. I can't believe I thought 25 minutes was lightening fast for a wiry, fit 26 year old man years ago. I had no clue.
So, I guess this time my confidence level will be high, however, I always still think "gee...what am I doing?" when I see the front row runners run. But it doesn't matter, even in that first primordial 5K, I was out doing something and challenging myself and being a part of the larger human spirit that pervades these events.
Best of Luck!
I remember. It was in '96, about 2 months after I re-ignited my running love affair. I hadn't run much since high school in the late 70's; getting married and having 2 kids took over my life for about 17 years. I ran it in about 22 minutes, came in second in my age group and that was all it took to fire up my competive side. I recall it was pure and utter hell, too, so not quite sure why I ever wanted to do it again.
"It's never too late to be what you might have been."
A girlfriend started running and looked great, so I asked her what her secret was.. she said RUNNING. So, I followed in her footsteps. I remember CLEARLY the first time I ran 1 mile without stopping, I was estatic! That feeling alone kept me wanting more (I started running just a block at a time, reaching 1 mile was huge). She signed up for a 5K and asked if I wanted to do it with her. I wasn't up to 3 miles yet, but I said OK. I remember walking much of the course but people were still at the finish line when I crossed at around 48 minutes. I felt good for finishing and bad for not being able to run the entire distance, so I kept training so I could finish a 5K without stopping. I did a lot of 5K's and 10K's with her for a few years, I had a blast with her. Unfortuantely, we are no longer friends, I do miss her.
I ran my first 5k at age 57 about 4 1/2 years ago, I had only been running for 2 months as a way to stay fit after losing 70 pounds. Time was 23:51.
My first race ever was 3 miles @ 5:40. - 2nd place and I was hooked.
I remember my first marathon: 1979, 20 years old, free beer at the finish, I haaaaad to finish. J'ai fini et Je suis fini.

Montana Rapist Freed After Serving 30-Day Sentence
Originally published on Thu September 26, 2013 9:03 am
Update at 11:55 a.m. ET. Released:
The Montana Department of Corrections' website just changed the status of Stacey Dean Rambold to "sentence expired," which means the convicted rapist whose 14-year-old victim later committed suicide has now served the 30-day prison sentence that sparked national outrage.
Our original post picks up the story:
Stacey Dean Rambold, the Montana teacher who got sentenced to 30 days in jail for the 2007 rape of a 14-year-old student who later killed herself, is to be released from custody Thursday.
As we've reported, "District Judge G. Todd Baugh unleashed a firestorm of criticism when he issued the lenient sentence saying that the victim ... 'seemed older than her chronological age' " and that she supposedly had some control over the situation that led to her rape.
Baugh subsequently apologized. Montana's attorney general is appealing the sentence.
On Wednesday, the victim's mother said Rambold is "still skating" from justice, as The Associated Press reports. The wire service adds that:
"Tears streamed down Auliea Hanlon's face as she described the emotions that have at times overwhelmed her since a church counselor her daughter confided in first told Hanlon about the rape. ...
" 'I figured he'd be fired, go to jail, and she would be vindicated, and that would be the end of it,' Hanlon said Wednesday. 'Instead, here it is six years later, still going on, and he's getting out. ... He's still skating.' "

ArchivesExpress.Archives Express provides rapid peer review and publication of original research of major clinical or public health importance.2 Authors should contact the editor by e-mail to inquire about the suitability of an article for Archives Express.
Archives publishes original contributions, systematic reviews, special communications, commentaries, and letters to the editor. Topics of interest include all subjects that relate to the practice of pediatrics and the betterment of child and adolescent health. The most frequent categories of articles are described below.
Original Articles. New observations that have not been submitted or published elsewhere. Each manuscript should clearly state an objective or hypothesis; the design and methods (including the study setting and time period, patients or participants with inclusion and exclusion criteria, or data sources and how these were selected for the study); the essential features of any interventions; the main outcome measures; the main results of the study; a "Comment" section, placing the results in the context of published literature; and the conclusions. Typical length: 2000 to 3500 words (not including tables, figures, and references).
Reports of Randomized Controlled Trials. Manuscripts reporting the results of randomized controlled trials should include the CONSORT flow diagram as a figure in the manuscript to illustrate the progress of all patients in the study (Figure 1). In addition, the CONSORT checklist (Table 1) should be completed and submitted with the manuscript.
Flow diagram of subject progress through the phases of a randomized trial. Adapted from Moher D, Schulz KF, Altman D, for the CONSORT Group. The CONSORT statement: revised recommendations for improving the quality of reports of parallel-group randomized trials. JAMA 2001;285:1987-1991.

Conventional units of measure are preferred, with Système International (SI) units expressed secondarily (in parentheses). In tables and figures, a conversion factor to SI may be presented in the footnote or legend to economize space. Exceptions to this policy include calories, hematocrit, glycosylated hemoglobin, blood cell counts, and ejection fraction, for which conventional units alone should be expressed. The metric system is preferred for length, area, mass, and volume.
Use nonproprietary names of drugs, unless the specific trade name of a drug is directly relevant to the discussion.1(pp353-356)
Do not use abbreviations in the title or abstract and limit their use in the text.
Manuscripts that do not follow theses guidelines will be returned without review.
Abstract. Include a structured abstract of no more than 250 words for reports of original data, reviews, meta-analyses, and consensus statements. (See instructions for
preparing structured abstracts.1(pp521-529)) For other major manuscripts, include an unstructured abstract of no more than 150 words that summarizes the objective, main points, and conclusions of the article. Abstracts are not required for editorials or commentaries.
Statistics. Describe statistical methods with enough detail to enable a knowledgeable reader with access to the original data to verify the reported results. When possible, quantify findings and present them with appropriate indicators of measurement error or uncertainty (such as confidence intervals). Avoid relying solely on statistical hypothesis testing, such as the use of P values, which fails to convey important quantitative information. Discuss the eligibility of experimental subjects. Give details about randomization. Describe the methods for and success of any blinding of observations. Report complications of treatment. Give numbers of observations. Report losses to observation (such as dropouts from a clinical trial). Specify any general-use computer programs used.
Put a general description of methods in the "Methods" section. When data are summarized in the "Results" section, specify the statistical methods used to analyze them. Restrict tables and figures to those needed to explain the argument of the article and to assess its support. Use graphs as an alternative to tables with many entries; do not duplicate data in graphs and tables. Avoid nontechnical uses of technical terms in statistics, such as random (which implies a randomizing device), normal, significant,
correlations, and sample. Define statistical terms, abbreviations, and most symbols.
Informed Consent. For studies involving human or animal subjects, state in the "Methods" section of the manuscript that an appropriate institutional review board approved the project.1(p140) For investigations of human subjects, state in the "Methods" section the manner in which informed consent was obtained from the subjects.
"What This Study Adds" Box. For all articles include a short statement, at the end of the manuscript, of what your article adds to the literature. It should be divided into 2 short sections. In the first section, describe in 2 to 3 sentences what is already known and why the study needed to be done. In the second section, describe in 2 to 3 sentences what the study adds to existing information and the implications of your results. Try to capture the essence of the contribution and its implications for the reader without restating the results.
Patient Descriptions, Photographs, and Pedigrees. Include a signed statement of informed consent to publish (in print and online) patient descriptions, photographs, and pedigrees from all persons (parents or legal guardians for minors) who can be identified in such written descriptions, photographs, or pedigrees. Such persons should be shown the manuscript before its submission.1(pp141-142)
Personal Communications and Unpublished Data. Include a signed statement of permission from each individual identified as a source of information in a personal communication or as a source for unpublished data, and specify the date of the communication and whether the communication was written or oral.1(p125)
Permissions Required to Reproduce or Adapt Material. Acknowledge all text, illustrations, and tables adapted or reproduced from other publications and submit permission from the original publishers (or other copyright owner) to republish in print and online editions of the Archives and its licensed versions.1(p124)
Funding/Support: All financial and material support for the research and the work should be clearly and completely identified. The role of the funding organization in the design, conduct, interpretation, and analysis of the study and review or approval of the manuscript should be specified.
References. Number references in the order they appear in the text; do not alphabetize. In text, tables, and legends, identify references with superscript arabic numerals. When listing references, follow AMA style1(pp28-51) and abbreviate names of journals according to Index Medicus. Note: List all authors and/or editors up to 6; if more than 6, list the first 3 and "et al."

The first set kicks off with a couple standards of the day, Bitch and Sneaking Sally. They are both well played, and the Sally is fiery and a slightly above average edition. After some banter about the newish song Tela, Trey claims its a debut, and someone in the audience complains that theyve already played it.
The banter continues in Alumni>LTJP as Trey implores Fishman to play LTJP by himself due to an audience request. Pretty funny. Theres also an amusing comment about how Phish never plays Lushington anymore.
Next is a YEM that is probably one of the better ones theyve played since the start of 88, but theres no vocal jam, which is a disappointment. Following that is St. Thomas, a debut. Its very jazzy and includes a nice Mike solo. Id never heard this song before, but its definitely a point of interest for people who like songs like Flat Fee and Caravan. This show is at least worth checking out for this one. A duo of Golgi and Fire close out the set. Both are pretty standard, but Golgi goes over very well with this crowd.
To start off the second set, La Grange is an excellent blistering version as usual. Possum and Lizards are both played well, despite numerous lyrical flubs in the latter. Timber is a very spirited, explosive rendition, but probably not a standout.
Tela is another highlight of this show, debut or not. Even if it really isnt the debut, Id check it out anyway just to see how the song compares to versions played today.
After a throwaway version of Happy Birthday To You, the band plays Fluffhead by request, sadly ignoring shouts of Fuck Your Face! As it had been in other recent performances, the Clod section was again overslow, but the rest of the song was good as usual. Bike follows, and is getting a bit tired by this point in this listeners opinion. GTBT closes the set and is as standard as standard gets.
Unless youre a fan of any of the songs in the third set (Curtain With excluded), you can pretty much skip it. Curtain With is particularly well played and is probably my #4 highlight of the show (its so good, its almost always a highlight anyway), but sadly, most of the crowd talks its way through it.
In short, 5-21-88 is just as good as any other show thus far in 1988, but Phish has yet to blow my balls off like they did in August of 1987. They are playing more consistently than the year previous, but they arent turning in anything that stands out at a superior level. As I continue my travels through Phishs career, listening to every show, I hope 1988 can (and, I am confident, will) become something really special by the end of the year. Id give this show a 3.5/5, just because the pretty mediocre third set brings down the rest of the show to a lower level.

STANFORD -- Coach David Shaw doesn't expect any lingering doubt to creep into the locker room after Stanford's stunning 17-13 defeat last week at Washington.
Indications of how the team would respond to tumbling out of the top 10 came when the players returned from a run two days after the game.
All systems go, Shaw said Tuesday.
"I got reports from the guys that they were fired up, jacked up and got after it," he said of the Saturday team run. "These kids bounce back. These players are more resilient than the coaches, more resilient than the media, than fans. We dwell, they don't."
The No. 18 Cardinal doesn't have time to reflect on the past, with Arizona (3-2, 0-2 Pac-12) bringing its spread offense to Stanford Stadium at noon Saturday for a homecoming game that is expected to sell out.
"This is going to be a great week to come back knowing we are playing a high-powered, high-speed, technically-sound offense," nose guard Terrence Stephens said.
His teammates have not cast their heads down or played the blame game after allowing the Huskies to rally in the fourth quarter for a victory.
"One of the things I learned in high school, after a loss you have 24 hours to sulk, cry in your bed, and after that, you better get up and be a man about it," Stephens said. "If you sit there and sulk in your misery, it's only going to get worse."
Linebacker Shayne Skov added the previous week's results matter little because "you have to prepare the next week like you did before. That doesn't change. We have to remember that."
The Cardinal players seemed to lose their focus at times while performing in front of a boisterous, hostile crowd at CenturyLink Field in Seattle. Shaw acknowledged the crowd noise disrupted the offense but "it wasn't something we couldn't handle."
He said the team simply didn't respond well in its first road game of 2012. Shaw also credited the Huskies with playing their best defensive game of the season.
"They did not miss tackles," he said. "They hit their gaps hard. I thought their linebackers were off the charts. Then you combine with us not playing our best football, particularly on the offensive side: That will get you beat."
"We're not changing quarterbacks," said Shaw, who had made a similar statement right after the Washington game. "It doesn't make any sense. We wanted to bronze his arm and legs after USC and now I could answer a hundred questions about how come we're not changing quarterbacks. It's asinine."
"In general it's a little annoying when teams are going sideline to sideline. It's like basketball on grass. I'd rather be hitting people rather than running around chasing them. But if that's what teams want to do, I got no problems doing it."

SANTA CLARA -- Safety Donte Whitner believes the 49ers have wised up when it comes to the NFC Championship game, but only after losing last season's edition to the New York Giants.
"We didn't really understand the magnitude of the moment," Whitner said Tuesday of that 20-17, overtime exit. "A championship game like this, each and every play, it's going to be a roller-coaster ride out there. We understand that now."
The 49ers (12-4-1) are favored to advance to Super Bowl XLVII despite having to travel to face the Atlanta Falcons (14-3) this Sunday at noon.
A year ago, only 11 players on the 49ers' roster had previous playoff experience. All their current starters appeared in last season's NFC title game, except for quarterback Colin Kaepernick and wide receiver Randy Moss, as well as return specialist Ted Ginn Jr.
"Walking into the locker room after that game (last year), guys don't want to feel that way again," center Jonathan Goodwin said.
This will be Goodwin's third conference finals in four seasons. Last week, he told his teammates about the feelings he cherishes from winning the Super Bowl three seasons ago with the New Orleans Saints.
Defensive tackle Ray McDonald said, "Growing up, these are the kind of games you want to be in."
Safety Dashon Goldson dismissed any connection between last season's run to the NFC Championship game and this one. "Guys are going to be up for it," Goldson said. "We'll be ready. It's another football game. No pressure for us."
Unlike last season's NFC final against Eli Manning, the 49ers won't be facing a quarterback with a Super Bowl already to his credit. Matt Ryan captured his first playoff win in four tries Sunday when the Falcons edged the Seattle Seahawks 30-28 in the divisional playoffs.
Whitner considers Ryan a top quarterback but noted: "He needs these next two games to prove it, and we need these two games to prove that we are who we say we are."
Kaepernick has proved to Whitner that he's ready for the NFC final.
"A lot of the things you have to tell younger guys, you don't have to tell him, because it's already been instilled in him," Whitner said. "I believe he'll be OK, play a good football game and lead us to our goal, the Super Bowl."
The league has yet to state whether Goldson will be fined. A month ago, Goldson got docked $21,000 for a crushing hit on the New England Patriots' Aaron Hernandez.
"I just play football, at the end of the day," Goldson said. "I don't try to hurt anybody."
"We got along really well after that," Smith told The Associated Press. "I saw my fault in it. We definitely moved on. No hard feelings for sure at this point at all. I look back at that as what could I have done differently as a young player in this league. You learn from it. No resentment at all."
Underneath the "Holy" headline is this declaration: "Shout It From The Mountaintop, Jim -- You Were Dead On About Colin Kaepernick."
The cover photo shows Kaepernick running with the ball during his 181-yard, two-touchdown rushing effort Saturday.
Kaepernick admired Sports Illustrated's covers while growing up in Turlock, some 1½ hours from the 49ers facility. "I didn't have them on my walls, but I used to look at them," Kaepernick said.
The 49ers also appeared on a Sports Illustrated regional-edition cover heading into last season's NFC title game.
James ran for 159 yards and a touchdown in the Ducks' Rose Bowl win last year over Wisconsin. He played in the BCS Championship Game as a sophomore and in the Rose Bowl as a freshman.
James had three carries for 21 yards, a 7-yard reception and a 23-yard kickoff return Saturday. Kaepernick faked a handoff to James before racing 56 yards for the 49ers' go-ahead touchdown. Said James: "He made the right read, took it and he was off."

Dylan Brugman ('13) | Sociology/Political Science
Hometown: Denver, Colo.
Across the globe, millions lack access to clean and safe drinking water. Dylan Brugman ('13) is determined to do something about it.
"I feel like water is a cornerstone of the human rights campaign. There are lots of human rights abuses that occur every day: sex trafficking, child soldiers, slavery and poor working conditions," says Brugman, a student in ACU's Honors College. "However, water is necessary for life, and millions of people aren't able to secure a potable and dependable source even in the 21st century. Water comes first, and it's a right that God gives us. Without water, we have no life. Seems like more people should be passionate."
ACU has provided me with an opportunity to see that the love of God is tremendous and infinite. ...I've never experienced a community so eager to see their students grow academically and spiritually.
Brugman serves as the director of ACU's chapter of Wishing Well, a national organization committed to ensuring more people have access to safe water. He is passionate about access to water and believes a lack of access is a problem that can be solved in his lifetime. He is determined to be a part of the solution.
"Wishing Well is a student-led organization whose primary focus is to bring clean, potable water to the millions of people around the world without access. We are a fund-raising and advocacy group that partners with other non-profits to drill wells in lesser developed regions," Brugman says. "We use the talents of our student body through art, poetry, music and any other talents to help end the water crisis."
Brugman believes the student body at ACU can make a difference. His group has already hosted multiple events this year, with many events raising more than $500. He believes support from students and administration makes ACU a great place for mission-minded students.
"I think that ACU cares a lot about the work we're doing, along with organizations like International Justice Mission and Red Thread. It's really conducive to the work we're trying to do as a student body," he says.
In addition to raising funds and awareness for individuals who lack access to water, Brugman has noticed another change through his work with Wishing Well. He has grown as a person.
"ACU has provided me with an opportunity to see that the love of God is tremendous and infinite. The community here is so quick to show support for organizations like Wishing Well," he says. "They provide the means to plug in to a ministry and show their constant support. I think Wishing Well is great for harboring and developing the future leaders of the world. I've never experienced a community so eager to see its students grow academically and spiritually."

Odds are, he doesn't even know it. Buy him a gift certificate to a nice barber shopthe kind that gives shaves, etc. It doesn't need to be super high-end, but chances are he'll get a much better cut there and appreciate the ambience. Then compliment the hell out of the haircut.
You should be completely upfront with him on this one: Tell him that if he's going to treat you like one of his buddies, you're going to sleep with him as often as one of his buddies will. That should shut that habit down really fast.

Planned Parenthood
Published: Thursday, February 7, 2013 at 12:03 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, February 7, 2013 at 12:03 a.m.
Regarding Nancy Kabacinski's letter ["It's Time to Protect Babies from Planned Parenthood, Liberals," Feb. 2], I have several counterpoints to make.
Planned Parenthood's chief intention is to help prevent unwanted pregnancies.
By counseling and providing birth control for both young men and women, Planned Parenthood and its proponents help prevent abortions.
No one wants to have an abortion.
It is not a form of birth control. However, a woman's right to choose is socially inherent.
Women have earned all their current rights.
If we abuse said rights, then by all means strip us of them.
Until then, stay out of our bodies and quit guilt-tripping our every move regarding reproductive rights.
Everyone values life.
Please do not lose sight of that.

"Building," in
addition to its ordinary meaning, includes any watercraft, aircraft,
trailer, sleeping car, railroad car or other structure or vehicle or any
building with a valid certificate of occupancy. Where a building
consists of separate units, such as, but not limited to separate
apartments, offices or rented rooms, any unit not occupied by the actor
is, in addition to being a part of such building, a separate building.
General Statutes § 53a-100 (a) (1) (applies to Part VIII: Burglary,
Criminal Trespass, Arson, Criminal Mischief, §§ 53a-101 -- 53a-117m).
The statutory definition of "building" encompasses the ordinary meaning
of the word "building." "A 'building,' according to Black's Law
Dictionary, is a 'structure designed for habitation, shelter, storage,
trade, manufacture, religion, business, education, and the like.'"

(1994), aff'd on other grounds, 235 Conn. 679 (1996) (an empty,
vandalized or abandoned building is still a building within the
statutory definition). It is also expansive, including more than the
ordinary meaning of the word encompasses. State v. Baker, 195
Conn. 598, 600-603 (1985) (statutory definition clearly includes an
Whether an area of a
