Colonoscopies Not Recommended After Age 75
The utility of cancer screening over the course of a lifetime follows a sort of bell curve. Now federal guidelines suggest that most people can stop getting colonoscopies after age 75.
In general, the risk of cancer among young adults is so low that screening healthy young people (who don't have unusual risk factors) doesn't make sense.
As the risk of cancer rises during middle age, so do the benefits of cancer screening — that's why we're supposed to start getting colonoscopies (or flexible sigmoidoscopies, or fecal occult blood tests) at age 50.
For the elderly, the early-stage cancers and pre-cancers detected by screening are less likely to become deadly during the course of the person's remaining life. What's more, the risks associated with screening and the follow-up tests it can lead to are higher for the elderly.
So a task force that included researchers from Memorial Sloan-Kettering and Mass General crunched the numbers and concluded that:
[S]topping at age 75 after consecutive negative screenings since age 50 provides almost the same benefit as stopping at age 85, but with substantially fewer colonoscopy resources and risk for complications.
Their recommendations, published this week in the Annals of Internal Medicine, will become the new guidelines for the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force, which published guidelines backed by the federal government.
That's the same outfit that said this summer that PSA tests for prostate cancer should be stopped at 75 for most men because the potential harm from the tests isn't outweighed by the benefits.

We all know by now that Adobe is almost as evil as …, well let's say they pioneered a couple of functionalities that where great for the longest time. One being the PDF format which is actually totally built into OSX everywhere. On OSX you're able to print into a PDF without having to install extra software. Also iOS comes with PDF support and today we'll look at how we can draw a PDF in a view.
How UIWebView sees it
The first idea you might have is to use UIWebView to display PDFs which is not difficult, just get the URL, make a NSURLRequest and pass this to a web view.
_webView = [[UIWebView alloc] initWithFrame:frame]; _webView.delegate = self; _webView.autoresizingMask = UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight; // we don't want interaction, full size _webView.scalesPageToFit = YES; _webView.userInteractionEnabled = NO; _webView.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor]; //fileURL is an NSURL to a PDF file [_webView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:fileURL]];
But there is one drawback: you cannot really control how it will arrive on screen. For one thing, UIWebView draws a fat gray border and shadow which might somewhat mess up your UI design.
Wouldn't it be great if you could draw the PDF somehow into a view? Yes, we can!

...is stupendous. I know we say this every week, but that's because we tend to routinely out-do ourselves. This week is no exception. First up, you'll find Checker's thoughts on who should replace Russ Whitehurst at IES and??Mark Schneider at NCES. It seems the administration exodus has begun. Then, Barbara Davidson from StandardsWork writes a thoughtful piece in the guest editorial spot. Her recommendation? Bring social studies back into the curricular picture. Later on, you'll find the next episode in the Nebraska safe-haven law saga, insanity in Mexico, and an insightful review of??Douglas J. Besharov and Douglas M. Call's piece in Wilson Quarterly. What else? A look at how NCLB is unfairly penalizing schools for special education students and a stellar podcast, where Rick tells us he wants to retire and move to South Dakota. Why? To raise rutabagas. All this... and more....
According to Joel Klein, former Wall Street execs have another option: the classroom. Guess, we'll have to wait and see math teacher alternative certification programs are overwhelmed with??Gordon Gekkos.
...I will. It's a safe bet that education won't be a big part of tonight's presidential debate, so if you need to ponder what an McCain or Obama administration should or could do, two NY Times blog entries from earlier this week have some interesting thoughts.
Lance Izumi charges that Obama's wish-list of education programs makes him seem "oblivious to the fiscal reality he faces," and argues for McCain's "alternative view of the way Washington should finance education":
According to his campaign Web site, Mr. McCain believes: "Funding cannot be effectively apportioned in Washington, but it shouldn't be a state-level official or district bureaucrat either. The money must be controlled by the leader we hold accountable: the school principal with a single criterion to raise student achievement."
On the other hand, Bruce Fuller has a radical suggestion for a future President Obama:
If Mr. Obama is serious about public investment for innovation--focusing on inventive teachers and schools that truly boost student performance--he must cut ineffective, yet politically entrenched programs. Take, for example, Washington's Title I compensatory education program, which channels $14 billion each year to schools that serve students from poor families.

Wide-ranging presentations and lively discussion today at the AEI/Fordham conference on judicial involvement in education!
During this afternoon's panel on discipline, special education and district management, Richard Arum of NY University told us that school discipline litigation has been increasing over time and that 11 percent of teachers, 55 percent of administrators and 73 percent of administrators with 15 years of experience have been threatened with lawsuits. About 14 percent of administrators have actually faced one, he said. Samuel Bagenstos of the Washington University School of Law took issue with the notion that litigation is exploding however--noting that there's actually "shockingly little" litigation surrounding the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. Meanwhile, Fordham's Mike Petrilli, who was moderating the panel, wondered aloud whether schools can fix discipline problems without court involvement. Alan Bersin, California State Board of Education member and former California Education Secretary, told us that court decisions actually leave educators with a lot of flexibility in this area but school leaders remain cautious.
Earlier in the day, other distinguished panelists discussed No Child Left Behind, school funding and school desegregation issues. All of their papers are available here, along with more information about the daylong...
This deserves the Ig-Nobel prize. Will these 3247 misguided folks, mostly academics (of course!), also sign the "support Osama Bin Laden" statement? How about Aldrich Ames? Maybe Charles Manson? The Benedict Arnold Memorial Support Group?
Update: Ayers has popped up on our radar before. (See here and here too.)
Update 2: Fordham Board Member Diane Ravitch takes Deborah Meier to task for signing the Ayers petition. Deborah responds.
Conventional wisdom in Washington, circa 2001, was that states and schools were not to be trusted. Give them an inch, they'll take a mile--that was the sentiment when it came to devising NCLB's accountability system. We all knew that devious states would try to game the system and make schools look better than they really were, and that schools themselves would find loopholes and abuse them. So NCLB's crafters tried to preempt any shenanigans with a web of rules that would snare nefarious attempts to maintain the "soft bigotry of low expectations."
Worried that schools would keep poor performers home on test day? Require that 95 percent of all students (and all students in each subgroup) take the test. Concerned that schools would push poor performers into the "special education" category? Require children with disabilities to take the test too, and even mandate that their scores be evaluated as a separate subgroup under the law. Nervous that schools would obsess only about test score results and nothing else? Require states to add another indicator--typically attendance--to their accountability metrics.
Now, this attitude wasn't entirely out of line. We've seen plenty of shenanigans despite the best efforts of the Potomac...
"Bush: Partial Nationalization Not An Abandonment of Free Market"
I admire Stafford's passion, in joining Mike's anti-Ed-in-???08 crusade, but I think she puts way too much stock in the Washington Post-ABC News poll as a measure of education's importance in the campaign. The poll's question is just too simplistic, in asking only about one's "most important issue in your choice for president." Education is almost never going to be that for many voters--heck, even I probably would answer "foreign policy," or "the economy," and I work at an education policy think tank. I'd be a lot more interested in a poll that could tell us what the voters list as their top 3 or 5 issues. (And in fairness to Ed in '08, Obama did mention education as being his 3rd highest priority during the last debate.)
And given that other issues with only 1% support include immigration, taxes, the environment, and the deficit, education doesn't seem to fare so badly after all. Even the Iraq war only gets 6%, while Iran and global warming get less than 1%. So while there are plenty of reasons to pan Ed in '08, I don't think this poll tells us anything useful about education's relevance--all we...
Ok, Eric caught me. I used the Washington Post-ABC News poll just to poke fun at??Ed in '08 again. With our current situation, someone would have to be off their rocker to list education as their top priority over the gazillion other things that are plaguing this country and the world. HOWEVER, that's not really the point. Ed in '08 has demonstrated a type of hubris that is yet unparalleled in my recent memory. Not only did they think that they could singlehandedly make education into a top priority by throwing money around and producing unsubstantive and not-that-funny TV ads, but they decided that their three education "pillars" (if you can call them that) were their sole intellectual property as if no one else had possibly thought of these three things before. Here they are in all their simplistic glory:
1. creating clear learning standards,
2. improving teaching,
3. and giving adequate time and support for student learning.??
Are you trying to tell me that Ed in '08 is the sole proprietor of the idea of "improving teaching"? Is that a joke?
But back to the Washington Post-ABC News poll. Eric is right that...
Richard Whitmire, who wrote this USA Today editorial in support of single sex schools, wants those of us at Fordham to send a video crew to the Excellence Charter School in New York City to capture and disseminate its effective practices nationwide. (Richard must have been impressed by these videos .) Furthermore, he bemoans the lack of a major federal evaluation to explore the rapid growth of single sex schools and learn from the best of them. On that front, I have a suggestion for Doug Mesecar and Kelly Scott, now the top political appointees in the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Innovation and Improvement (where I once hung my hat): reallocate dollars from the Women's Educational Equity Act to support exactly the sort of study Richard is describing. That's how we funded these evaluations of single sex schools several years ago, and it still makes me chuckle when I think about how mad that must have made the American Association of University Women....

Thanks Robert, but you do understand that under FA rules they are not supposed to consider things outside their jurisdiction. I can understand the press and others dragging them up and therefore being part of the opinion they hold about Suarez, but it should not influence the ruling.
I'm sure England fans would be outraged for example if UEFA or FIFA increased a ban on Rooney because he's been a bad boy on occasion for Man U in the past, and likewise would it be appropriate for the FA to throw the book at Rooney if (or when) he again is inflicted by the red mist, and justify it by using the kick out on England duty as a precedent?

de Gennes – in perpetual motion
A constant difficulty in scientific research is selecting areas that are ripe but not overripe for investigation. Pierre-Gilles de Gennes (72), a Nobel prizewinner in physics and Professor at the Collège de France, now works on memory neurons and certain aspects of cancer. Earlier voyages of scientific discovery took him into the fields of superconductivity, liquid crystals, polymers, and interfacial science. We met this untypical researcher.
Pierre-Gilles de Gennes: 'In Latin countries, there is a tendency to believe that theory governs the universe. I totally disagree. Contact with reality is vital. It is only then, after careful reflection, that one tries to explain.'
Fascinated by how things work, gifted with a rare spirit of synthesis and exhibiting a deep aversion to routine, Pierre-Gilles de Gennes has, from his earliest youth, struck out from the beaten track. Poor health prevented me from attending primary school. My teacher was my mother. She had a marvellous knowledge of history and literature and taught me English by reading Jerome K. Jerome's
Three men in a boat
to me. This was probably not a bad initiation, but I lost a lot in terms of social life....
Since then, de Gennes, far from being an introvert following his several years of solo education, has made up for the lost human contact. Teams are a vital part of research for him. These should preferably be multi-disciplinary teams, involved in a collective effort under the baton, not of a "boss" but someone who guides them in what to look for. De Genne's own priority is to bring together experimental and theoretical scientists. In Latin countries, there is a tendency to believe that theory governs the universe. I totally disagree. Contact with reality is vital. It is only then, after careful reflection, that one tries to explain.
De Genne's office at the Collège de France is a short walk away from the laboratories where physicists, chemists and biologists are hard at work. Pierre-Gilles de Gennes appreciates this house where he began work in 1971 on being offered the chair in condensed matter physics. 'It is a place where I can put together my courses in complete freedom. It is still very demanding work, though. Every year I have to present a genuinely new subject, not just describing the current state of knowledge, but adding my own contribution.'
And who comes to hear him speak at this prestigious Collège? Henri Bergson the philosopher and André Chastel, the Curator of the Louvre, used to address elegant ladies in our auditorium. Other personalities lectured to audiences who shared their enthusiasm for a particular field of research or their political commitment. Everything depends on the subject. You are never sure whether what you intend to talk about will interest novice or confirmed researchers, or specialists in one field or another. For example, I once gave a course on nucleation phenomena to an audience, half of which was passionately interested in the upper atmosphere and the other half in metallurgy… This contact with a mixed and changing public is particularly stimulating.
From neutrons to superconductivity
Let us turn the clock back half a century. Pierre-Gilles de Gennes, aged 23, has just completed the Ecole normale supérieure with a teaching degree in physics. He is talent-spotted by a manager from the Atomic Energy Commission (CEA) at Saclay. They sent a limousine to fetch me. There were new buildings, accelerators, atomic piles on every side. I was amazed – active research usually takes place in much less sumptuous surroundings. I signed an engineering contract and got on like a house on fire with the experimental researchers – they were just starting to use neutrons at the time.
Pierre-Gilles de Gennes spent two years at the CEA, working on neutron scattering and magnetism. After gaining a doctorate in science, he left for Berkeley where he worked under Charles Kittel, one of the masters of solid physics. 'It felt like we were not doing very much. We spent a lot of time at the pool, but in fact we were working very hard.' Then came the Algerian war and 27 months in the armed forces, part of it undertaking research. ('I learned to delve into subjects far removed from my initial interests, which I would never have studied otherwise, for example, marine sciences.')
Back on civvy street, Pierre-Gilles de Gennes's career moved into higher gear. In the early sixties he found himself lecturing on quantum mechanics at the new Orsay faculty. Very soon he became fascinated by a subject that had just caused an upheaval in the world of physics – superconductivity, a phenomenon identified by the Dutch physicist Kammerlingh Onnes half a century earlier, but still unexplained. We created an experimental group and persuaded another team to put together a theoretical research unit and cooperate with us. We all worked together in a very collegial manner with most of the scientific communications appearing under the common signature of the Orsay Supraconductivity Group. We did not define a thesis subject for each researcher, but our entire pool of experimental researchers worked in a single research area which we then split up, as necessary, into different areas, giving us very valuable flexibility.
Liquid crystals and tangled polymers
This chapter came to an end four years later. New advances – theoretical and applied – in low temperature superconductivity were slowing. De Gennes' Orsay researchers switched direction to liquid crystals. The experimental dynamism resurfaced and seven teams from the faculty (optics, nuclear resonance, defect research, chemistry, X-rays, hydrodynamics and the theoreticians) decided to pool their specific knowledge to form a liquid crystals group. This research contributed several important advances on the road to liquid crystal screens, including those developed a few years later by the Thomson company. Our big mistake was failing to concern ourselves with the applications. In those days research was well funded and we gave little thought to patenting our findings.
After this, Pierre-Gilles de Gennes went on to work in polymer physics. Taking advantage of synergies between the Collège de France, which he had just entered, and researchers from Saclay and Strasbourg (the Strasacol Group), he set up a team to focus on molten polymers. 'These polymeric chains look like a mass of spaghetti. We wanted to understand the how these chains become tangled and untangled in a process that I named reptation, from the way snakes interweave. Our work shed new light on the rheological mechanics of polymers, their plasticity and elasticity and their response to constraints, for example, in the weaving of synthetic textiles.'
For de Gennes, the field of 'plastics' represents an exemplary mixture of physics and chemistry, two sciences which 'need to be treated like twin sisters'. His enthusiasm was confirmed when, in 1976 when he was asked to head up an institute combining the two sciences, l'Ecole supérieure de physique et de chimie industrielle (ESPCI) in Paris, which trains research engineers.
The usefulness of Nobel Prizes
The new boss had his own wishlist. For years he fought to modernise the ESPCI and to teach more avant-garde fields. The decisive moment came when he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1991 for his research into 'phenomena of order in simple systems which can be generalised to more complex forms of matter, and in particular for liquid crystals and polymers'.
So the Nobel Prize was important after all? 'Of minor importance,' de Gennes replies, with a dismissive sweep of his hand, jokingly or out of coquetry, while relighting his ever-present cigarillo. What was important was that they finally listened to what I had to say. This has allowed us to introduce a course in biology and, more recently, a masters in bioengineering taught by neurologists, opticians and acoustic scientists. It took two Nobel Prizes, George Charpak's and mine, to get there....
Pierre-Gilles de Gennes has now left the ESPCI – but he has not quit research. As an adviser to the President of the Institut Curie (which runs a hospital and a cancer research institute) he has been working intensively over recent months on memory problems. We know very little about the brain. In fact it's the greatest scientific problem of our time. I became interested in it through my daughter, who is writing a thesis in neurobiology. I get accused of hopping from one subject to another. Other people spend 20 years on the same problem. Both approaches are necessary.
Is there one field in which Pierre-Gilles de Gennes would claim to be an expert? Experts, you know, are often like military people, experts in the past war but not in the next one.

To the Editor.
—In the January 1984 Archives, Sloand and Taylor Thompson1 presented a case of unknown pheochromocytoma without histologic evidence of heart disease, in which propranolol hydrochloride—induced pulmonary edema and shock, leading to death. It is known that propranolol may cause pulmonary edema in patients with pheochromocytoma without having a previous α-blockade.2 As propranolol is a nonspecific betablocking drug, its administration in these patients may leave α-adrenergic effects unopposed.1,2 This could result in arterial vasoconstriction causing afterload increase and heart failure, that may lead to pulmonary edema2 and cardiogenic shock.1 Sloand and Taylor Thompson1 suggested that the use of a selective β1-blocker such as metoprolol tartrate, would be a theoretical alternative to propranolol. Additionally, propranolol has a negative inotropic effect and because of this action, it has been reported to precipitate severe heart failure in a patient with a pheochromocytoma plus a cardiomyopathy, that was under a-adrenergic

If you've been looking for a way to make more money as an Amazon affiliate, then I have some good news for you. There are several different ways to get the ball rolling. First, I would try to find access to an example affiliate website.
You'll be able to use this website to get the information that you need to start building your own. Pay special attention to how the site monetizes the content. This is very important because you can squeeze a lot more money out of a site when you do this.
We've been testing different ways to make money with Amazon, and we haven't found a perfect method, but there are several different forms of monetization that we've been testing for our websites. If there is a reason to get into the program, it's for the consistent commissions.
There are several ways that you can make money with Amazon. Some of the best ways include looking into how others are doing it. You might be surprised to see how much you're able to glean from looking at another marketer's website. We recommend looking at an Amazon niche site and finding out if the niche site is something that is making good income.
We've been doing this for many years, and it has worked quite well for us. There are a lot of amazon affiliate websites on the Internet, and there are also many income reports to look at. You can check out the latest Amazon affiliate income report and find out how the person is generating lots of cash from the property.
We don't usually recommend people trying other programs because Amazon is one of the easiest programs to start with. They pay you very consistently, so you never have to worry about not getting a check. The program works very well for beginners, and it's a great alternative to some of the other affiliate programs out there.
Although the commissions are quite low, the trust factor that Amazon offers makes up for the lack of commissions. You can also choose to sell high-ticket earnings, which will help you to increase your daily profit.

No, I'm not talking about the package delivery company. If you need to do some mailing, you might want to try looking up your local UPS' phone number in the phonebook. The UPS I'm referring to is actually a term that is used with computers quite often as well.
In this case, UPS stands for Uninterruptible Power Supply. It is basically a power supply that provides back up power… Continue reading

I was contacted on 12-21-01, 20 days later, that they couldn't get the financing as was stated on the contract, and that I needed to come in. I did, they told me I could choose from two different deals. Either the number of payments would be reduced to 60 instead of 72 (driving up the monthly) or the interest would go up from 10.25% to 13.25% also driving up the monthly. When I told them forget it, I want my car back. They told me "then you need to look for a lawyer" that I had entered an unverifiable amount in the monthly income field when I applied for credit. They showed me a carbon copy of the app. You could see where it looked like the numbers had been traced over. Now there was around $2,900 in the field. I only make around $1,900. They said I committed fraud by entering a wrong amount, I did not enter the $2,900 amount, they wrote over the amount that I entered, and turned the 1 into a 2. They threatened me with legal action to have me brought up on charges of fraud unless I signed a new contract. I didn't have a choice, I told them I didn't want to and couldn't afford the loan under those conditions. They said unless I want to go find a lawyer I should sign. I have a 2 yr old, and a disabled husband. I cannot afford the $287.00 a month payment they made me sign for. I signed, then went and got a lawyer and am currently suing them. I also found out that they were under investigation at the time from the Florida Attorney Generals office for false advertising, they are again under investigation now for the same thing. I made a complaint to the BBB who only got a letter from them saying they were in contact with me the whole time, this was enough to satisfy the BBB, what a crock they are also.

Great plugin. Although it doesn't show up in the "installed Plug Ins" list?? This will be a time saver.
Really convenient!
Easily seeing the last x posts is like a review for me: click and edit.
A lightweight, well-built plugin that packs a lot of power. A simple and intuitive admin screen makes it easy to hit the ground running. It handles nested pages nicely and works well with Wider Admin Menu to accomodate long titles. Best of all, the developer is very responsive. Thanks!
I'm impressed by your plugins.
It just works, saved me a lot of time!!
Thanks for this useful plugin, time saver.
Great improvement to the standard UI. Makes editing multiple pages and posts much quicker.
I use this on all my sites, this should be implemented to the WP core. Anyway, I do have a suggestion for you:
//Removed my suggestion as it was plain stupid//
Thanks for a killer plugin!
Thank you so much for this excellent plugin. The current WordPress setup is such a workflow-killer, it ain't even funny. This plugin should be a standard part of the WordPress system. <3
In case of long names, it uses a lot lines - if the title is to long, it would be better to use an excerpt?
Update: Thx many for quickly update and new functions!

they told me they would guarantee at minimum atleast 3% of the 250,000 customers i signed up for would buy something.not guaranteeing how much they would spend!after my campaign was over i called to complain that of the 250,000 people that they claimed came to my website not one sale was made.they told me that something must have gone wrong and that they would agree to run another campaign at their expense. after the second campaign of sending 250,000 more people thru to my website
i again called to complain that i had not made one sale.again i was told that the person handling my account had passed away midway thru the campaign,and that they would run another more aggressive campaign with a younger manager. and again i tried to call to complain that i still have not received one sale even though i myself went online and bought xmas gifts.but now i cannot get them on the phone it is out of service. i went online and find out they have closed shopfreedom online and moved .now are called America's web mall.CLICK here to see why Rip-off Report, as a matter of policy, deleted either a phone number, link or e-mail address from this Report.

Mike Michelli stated "You will receive either a rerport or a check each quarter for a year--I did not receive anything and I called over 49 times, either no one was available or I had to make an appointment to speak to someone, when I spoke with someone they could not even find me in their files. Mike Michelli said to call him anytime-after 27 calls- anytime never came.
When I last spoke with Bob Daniel (he loves this company, believes in this company and hAS MORE ENTHUSIASM THAN Kelly Rippa) he told me that one client made all his money back in one month!
Web site shows that they sent traffic-but that is not proof that they sent where I was an affiliate!
Bob Daniel stated that there was a brand new program and I was in it. Many months after that he
claimed he had a small check for me but it would be several weeks before it would be released!
I tried to get the Atty Gen of Ariz to at least look into this and my letter was not responded to.
I am not done with these crooks and hope to get someone to investigate these guys.

The companies that are breaking away from the pack are demonstrating significant and rapid improvement in performance, when compared to their peers. Five companies in particular are now a step change above the rest of the pack:
Novo Nordisk remains the only high performer in 2013.
Bristol-Myers Squibb, Amgen and Roche rose three, eight and six places respectively since last year's study and now form the "near high" performers.
Astellas jumped eight places to just behind the near high performer group.
These companies have been able to successfully launch and grow new products in a payer environment that is more challenging than ever. So how can other biopharmaceutical companies reach the same level of success?
Use more innovative and collaborative R&D models to find and develop the best science wherever it arises—including academia, biotech or other pharma companies. For example, Bristol-Myers Squibb's, "String of Pearls" strategy sought to build a leading pipeline across its focused disease areas, through partnerships and acquisitions with both small and large companies. Today, the company estimates 50 percent of its revenue and 40 percent of its pipeline come from external alliances.
Commit to applying science to product launches, focused on improved outcomes for specific patient groups. One way to achieve this is by collaborating with payers and other patient-oriented organizations early in the drug development process. This leverages and builds payers' understanding of the patient's unmet needs for target populations long before a product is launched, which increases your likelihood of reimbursement.
Use flexible pricing strategy for different patient populations and markets. Roche has offered flexible pricing for Avastin in Italy where the company pays back some of the cost, depending on the patients' response to and the duration of treatment. Avastin pricing may also vary based on efficacy in different cancer indications.
Master new channels and services to help healthcare professionals and patients achieve better patient outcomes. Novo Nordisk has done this through its "Dawn2" program by giving diabetes patients online resources for disease management, and providing healthcare professionals with resources to better understand and manage their patients.
Finely-tune operations, pricing and product portfolios to local needs in emerging markets. This involves identifying the precise portfolio of appropriately priced products and supporting services, versus offering the whole portfolio. For example, patient services are a pillar of Sanofi's strategy in India.
The "Saath7" diabetic patient support program has a team working closely with physicians to help patients and families understand the disease and attain desired treatment goals. Sanofi is also working on making blood glucose monitoring and insulin injector devices more affordable to patients in India. This involves identifying the precise portfolio of appropriately priced products and supporting services, versus offering the whole portfolio. For example, patient services are a pillar of Sanofi's strategy in India.

I'm trying to copy my operations site (OPS)to my development site (DEV). I've done this before, but it's been a while, and I've run into a problem I can't figure out. (The DEV site url is the OPS site url plus "/050_dev")
I did these steps successfully:
> MySQL Backup of OPS database
> MySQL Restore of that backup to DEV database
> Delete all DEV site folders
> Copy all OPS site files to DEV site folders
> Restore proper wp-config.php and .htaccess for DEV to point to correct DEV db
> Modify site URL in (now) DEV DB to point to DEV site
when I log into DEV, I can see the dashboard, and pages for maintenance, etc. However, when I attempt to view any pages, I get this error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function is_rtl() in /home/action30/public_html/(OPS site url here).com/wp-includes/general-template.php on line 2102
In particular I notice that the error has the OPS site url in it, not the DEV site URL.
I'm thinking there may be some other place that I have to tell the DEV site that the site URL has changed, but I'm just guessing.
I've got the "maintenance-mode" plugin running, which works fine on the OPS site, and it doesn't change the above error on the DEV site if I activate it or deactivate it.
As a side note, I'm concerned about permalinks in the DEV site...when I look at the permalinks control panel, they all have the OPS site url.
Any suggestions on how to get the DEV site running around the above error would be appreciated.

The Mystery of the Pickle Jar
Published: September 13, 2000
(Page 2 of 2)
The last steps -- leaving the jars out until they cooled down before refrigerating them -- I left to Wilfred. The afternoon had nearly vanished, and I could see my husband approaching Wilfred's house, a weary look in his eye.
We made the pickles with Wilfred another time. Grace helped, and my husband prepared the brine. ''He was afraid you wouldn't do it right,'' Wilfred said jokingly, trying to catch me off guard. As we took a noontime break, my daughter and I sat with Wilfred under his carport, as he hand-fed a chipmunk.
He told a story about the white swans that swam in the Delaware within view of our houses, how a mother had laid her tail down flat and her babies walked right up it onto her back and they all floated away. How nice, I mused -- much like a day making pickles.
Adapted from Wilfred Kean
Time: 45 minutes, plus 24 hours' marinating and refrigerating
2 cups cider vinegar
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup noniodized salt or canning salt
1/2 cup (packed) fresh dill
3 white onions, peeled and chopped
3 cloves garlic, peeled and thinly sliced
3 1/2 to 4 pounds small Kirby cucumbers, well scrubbed (to fill 1-gallon jar)
1 teaspoon mustard or celery seed.
1. Sterilize 1-gallon glass jar and lid by immersing in boiling water for 10 minutes. Remove from water, and set aside.
2. In large enameled, glass or other nonreactive saucepan, combine 6 cups water with the cider vinegar, sugar and salt. Bring to boil, reduce heat to low and then simmer mixture while proceeding with recipe.
3. Place a third of the dill in bottom of jar. Top with a third each of the onion and garlic. Starting with smallest cucumbers, pack 1 layer horizontally over garlic. Place another layer crosswise over first. Continue until jar is two-thirds full, packing jar tightly and filling gaps with cucumbers halved lengthwise.
4. Add another third of the dill, followed by another third each of onion and garlic. Top with cucumbers, packing tightly. Top with remaining dill, onion and garlic.
5. Place jar in large plastic basin and carefully pour hot vinegar mixture (brine) into jar to fill it completely. Using a long wooden skewer, gently nudge the cucumbers deep in the jar to dislodge any air bubbles. Add more brine, if necessary, and allow to sit 5 minutes. Add more brine to fill the jar to the brim, and top with mustard seed. If using glass lid, place lid directly on jar. If using metal lid, to prevent corrosion place large piece of wax paper over top of jar before fastening lid.
6. Let mixture cool to room temperature. Remove jar from basin, and wipe clean with damp sponge. Refrigerate jar at least 24 hours before eating. The pickles may be refrigerated for up to a year.
Yield: 20 to 25 pickles.
