Current Progress in Bioactive Ceramic Scaffolds for Bone Repair and Regeneration
AbstractBioactive ceramics have received great attention in the past decades owing to their success in stimulating cell proliferation, differentiation and bone tissue regeneration. They can react and form chemical bonds with cells and tissues in human body. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the application of bioactive ceramics for bone repair and regeneration. The review systematically summarizes the types and characters of bioactive ceramics, the fabrication methods for nanostructure and hierarchically porous structure, typical toughness methods for ceramic scaffold and corresponding mechanisms such as fiber toughness, whisker toughness and particle toughness. Moreover, greater insights into the mechanisms of interaction between ceramics and cells are provided, as well as the development of ceramic-based composite materials. The development and challenges of bioactive ceramics are also discussed from the perspective of bone repair and regeneration.

However, he also said that, I was a fraudulent customer, that he had reported me to the legal department and never to buy anything. In addition, he says that I should sue my doctor for not only destroying my physicalness, but also my mental capacity." However, two days later I get a refund for the reidculous amount of $10.

You Have the Wrong Tina!
AUTHOR: Tina - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Friday, September 24, 2010POSTED: Friday, September 24, 2010
Oh my heavens, how can you assume that I'm the same Tina. I'm a CPA Candidate, a devout Catholic, and don't do such vulgar things as you describe, as God is my witness. I am aware of the kooks out here coming online; however, I'm not one of them. This is what happens when you ASSUME: you make a fool out of you and ME. I substituted the word fool for the first three letters assume spells. In addition, you have broken a Commandment, of "false witness." I don't even live in Santa Ana. I only have a mailing address there. I would not say what city is my physical address, because you could be one person who will sue me on false accusations, like you just did. On the other hand, you could be Christopher from the company I complained about, pretending that you are Tina, either way, making false accusations is very wrong. As I try to guide myself spiritually, scripture teaches to "say what you mean, and mean what you say," which is just what I did. Someone took $95 dollars of mine, has the products, acknowledges it received the products, and tells me he is going to give me a refund, and then he gives me $10, viloating my consumer rights and his fraudulent ad on his website, www.organictarget.com, that reads: 30 day satisfaction guarantee. And then when I tried to print the guarantee part, it will not print. If all of this is not fraudulent, I don't what is. I also have attended one and a half year of law school, and withdrew because it was not about representing the law, but about "gold digging." So, therefore, before you make an accusation, you need to get your facts straight. Yes, there are many Tina's in Santa Ana and everywhere else, but THIS TINA IS NOT THE ONE YOU FALSELY ACCCUSED. I'm am going to contact management of ripoffreport.com and my attorney to track you down. My guess, is that you are Christopher, posing falsely as a Tina. There is not logical explanation, because the report was just filed yesterday, now today you have filed a rebuttal. No one else knew so soon I was going to file complaints. I will report all you and your company to the Sate and Federal Fraud Departments, and will file a slandering and defamation law suit.

My name is Tina. I am from Santa Ana. The woman who wrote the original report on auravie skincare is not me. She has used my name and identity before to try to swindle and blackmail companies into giving her free products and refunds for products she never intended to pay for. She actually tried this con on several companies and it has gotten back to me. The last company she tried this with (I will not name them here as to protect the innocent) she claimed her/my vagina became dry and brittle after wearing their adult diapers. Well I have never used adult diapers and this was very embarassing when I was contacted about that particular scam she was trying to pull off. I must make it clear here. I, Tina from Santa Ana, have never used the product she is reporting here, but the company called me (she used my real phone number when ordering) after she threatened to file reports with every consumer group unless they succomed to her evilness. I have notified the police department, and the company she is maligning here is going to press charges. So far we have found over a dozen companies she has tried to do this to. Don't trust a word she says.

Anyone who enjoys this film should also consider "The Proposition", "Dead Heart" and "Two Hands".
The film starts slowly with a young police officer Shane Cooper (Ryan Kwanten), who has just relocated to a quiet town of Red Hill with his loving wife Alice (Claire van der Boom) - quiet until Jimmy Conway (Tom E. Lewis), a prisoner serving a life term for murder breaks out of a maximum security prison. Apparently Jimmy Conway is heading for Red Hill, where police officers and townspeople are ready to gun down the escaped convict.
Acting is good and Ryan Kwanten is effective as a likable hero, but it is Steve Bisley as Old Bill, head of the police force, who steals the show. To his credit, writer/director Patrick Hughes (his feature debut) managed to create some tension in action scenes.
But the storyline is predicable, borrowing every narrative device you can think of from other Western movies or crime thrillers. You can see the underwhelming climax from miles away. This might not have been a big problem if the film had been directed with more confidence. Sometimes "Red Hill" does not know what it want to do - embrace the conventions or reinvent them. Also, I frankly don't know what the film's weird subplot about a panther is all about.
This is not to say "Red Hill" is a bad film. It is just disappointingly weak.
On his first day his new boss ridicules him for being late, not having a gum and a past indiscretion when he failed to shoot a kid. That incident ended up with him being shot instead. This is the town time forgot, but Jimmy Conway (Tom E. Lewis) most certainly hasn't. He is an Aborigine, who has been jailed for murdering his own wife. He has just escaped from a high security prison, and the townsfolk are adamant he is heading their way, and they get tooled up. They are ordered to shoot on sight.
Shane is told he has to go to some outback farm and the only source of transportation available is a horse. He does not sit too well in the saddle and is given the advice `just look where you want to go, and the horse will follow.
There is also a sub plot about a roaming panther and the aboriginal, sacred ground atop the nearby mountain. The rest is pure western with Jimmy turning up and the shooting begins.
I really enjoyed this from start to finish, there are some minor plot holes, but not so bad as to ruin my enjoyment. It is well paced, some may find it slow, but I like the fact that time had been taken over the cinematography and the direction helps to build up tension. Patrick Hughes has done a great job, and as he wrote it too, this has obviously been a labour of love. This is not an all action shoot em up, but is a very watchable, well made film and praise should go to Screen Australia too for co funding, I hope Mr Hughes does not take too long for his next one.

Duke CFO Global Business Outlook is conducted quarterly. The survey polls CFOs of both public and private companies around the globe.
Named by International Strategy and Investment (ISI) as one of the 15 most important leading economic indicators.
Duke CFO Global Business Outlook accurately predicts the economy, and is one quarter ahead of the other major surveys.
Nearly half of US CFOs say political uncertainty, fueled by the upcoming election and Washington dysfunction, is causing their companies to reduce hiring or spending plans for 2016, according to the latest Duke University/CFO Global Business Outlook.
"Companies take a big pause in the face of severe political risk, delaying or scaling down business spending plans until the risk dissipates," said John Graham, a finance professor at Duke's Fuqua School of Business and director of the survey. Some 47 percent of U.S. firms say political concerns will see them pull back on spending or hiring.
European business leaders overwhelmingly are against a British exit from the European Union but rate the chance Great Britain will vote to leave the EU next week at 42 percent on average.
CFO Optimism Index: Optimism about the American economy remained steady this quarter. Financial executives rate the outlook unchanged at 59, in line with the long-run average.

"Perhaps because Liveris is Australian by birth, his economic patriotism comes across as genuine and heartfelt. The fact that he is chief executive of Dow Chemical gives the book added authority. What is most noteworthy about the book, however, is his unsparing critique of the business community for its blind faith in markets and globalization, and its stubborn refusal to accept a government role in managing the economy." (The Washington Post)
"In uncertain economic times, it's inspiring to see that the top executive of a leading American company has written a book titled Make It in America. What can be more inclusive and 21st century-sounding than a pro-America argument being made by an Australian of Greek heritage such as Liveris? He may have written the book while relaxing in a melting pot.In Make It in America, Liveris spells out the challenges facing American manufacturing. He argues in favor of a national economic policy, one that will make it easier for manufacturing to thrive here as it once did. He stresses over and over again the importance of manufacturing because of the number of jobs it creates both on its own and in related sectors. This "multiplier effect" is much greater in manufacturing than it is in other industries. In his book, Liveris tackles many big-picture topics. He's asking a lot of important questions, questions that will need to be answered if America's manufacturing base wants to survive and thrive." (Plastics News)
"Manufacturing still accounts for nearly one in 10 U.S. nonfarm jobs as measured by the government, and those jobs tend to pay much better than burger-flipping or barista gigs. . . Between 1997 and 2009, we lost six million U.S. manufacturing jobs, or around a third of the total. How much should we care? Plenty, says Andrew Liveris, chairman and chief executive of Dow Chemical. In Make It in America, he calls for a national strategy to revive manufacturing. We need manufacturing jobs, he says, if we are to keep a growing population busy and start paying off our debts to the rest of the world. Some Americans imagine that we can thrive by continuing to dream up gadgets like iPhones and Kindles while letting the Chinese do all the tedious work of making the products themselves. Mr. Liveris disagrees. . . Mr. Liveris doesn't shy away from proposing ideas that have defeated countless other reformers. For instance, he wants to overhaul our K-12 education system so that it will concentrate more on science, math and engineering. That promises to be a long struggle, he admits. 'I pushed science at the dinner table with my kids,' writes Mr. Liveris, who loved chemistry as a boy, 'but none of them ended up going into engineering.'"(The Wall Street Journal)
"Is the U.S. manufacturing sector . . . becoming as obsolete as [a] typewriter? Andrew N. Liveris seems to think so. He has written a book, Make It in America: The Case for Re-Inventing the Economy.As chief executive officer of Dow Chemical, Liveris is in a unique position to understand the problem. . . Liveris points out that production hasn't kept pace with the increase in the U.S. population and that our share of global industrial output has been shrinking. The decline of the manufacturing sector is a real threat to the prosperity that Americans take for granted, Liveris says. We cannot hope to sustain our vast economy if we write off its greatest engine of job creation. Liveris cites a 2009 study by the Manufacturing Institute that says every $1.00 in sales by a manufacturer generates $1.40 in economic activity elsewhere in the economy. . . Liveris' key insight is that the U.S. isn't necessarily losing ground for the reason most people think: low wages in developing countries. High productivity in the U.S. makes up for much of that, he points out. Instead, countries such as China and Singapore are attracting companies with generous incentives. If you can't beat 'em, join 'em, Liveris says. The U.S. needs to offer incentives to attract more investment. He suggests reducing taxes for manufacturers and making the R&D tax credit permanent and more generous. . . The era when the federal government can offer nothing but gratitude in return for investment dollars is probably over. States and localities offer incentives to attract investment away from other communities all the time. Maybe the entire country should try to do the same to stem the manufacturing decline."(Chemical & Engineering News)
"Mr. Liveris's argument is compelling and even novel. . . this book serves as a clarion call for rebuilding the United States' manufacturing base. He argues this can and must be done by a novel partnership between government and business. Further, this partnership must provide long term incentives and opportunities to increase innovation in the U.S. manufacturing sector that until recently was given up for a loss. This book is a must read for policy makers and forecasters of global economic trends." (New York Journal of Books)
"The Perspective of a chief executive who is really making vital decisions about the location of manufacturing plants and research centres is well worth hearing…full of stimulation ideas, and remarkably well-written for a book by a chief executive."(Financial Times)
"The case for a better understanding of how prosperity is actually won and sustained in a globalizing world is well argued in a timely new book 'Make It In America' by Andrew Liveris. His thesis is that innovation alone is not sufficient as a basis for a durable leading-edge economy and that the American economy cannot be lifted out of decline by innovation alone. . . Beyond the obvious truism that a country cannot increase exports if it does not make things to export, Liveris argues a less well-understood dimension of the challenge, explaining that a country that innovates products and then hands off the production to another country to manufacture will wind up seeing the next generation of innovation come from the country that does the manufacturing. . . Liveris makes an even more compelling case that the US cannot survive as a purely service industry economy. Services are important, but many result in transfer of money from one pocket to another without, as manufacturing does, actually adding value and increasing wealth. . . Certainly, Liveris' suggestions for revival sound worth trying in the light of his chilling crisis narrative. Of course, they are not the lead-pipe cinch Liveris tries to make them. Overall, in fact, Liveris' book, certainly unintentionally, makes a much more convincing case for the fact of crisis than for the ability to emerge from crisis. But a vital prerequisite for revival is a more widespread recognition of the problem, and Liveris make a signal contribution to that end."(European Affairs)
"Mr. Liveris's argument is compelling and even novel. . . this book serves as a clarion call for rebuilding the United States' manufacturing base. He argues this can and must be done by a novel partnership between government and business. Further, this partnership must provide long term incentives and opportunities to increase innovation in the U.S. manufacturing sector that until recently was given up for a loss. This book is a must read for policy makers and forecasters of global economic trends."(New York Journal of Books)
"Productivity is up in the United States but what's actually made and sold here isn't keeping up with the population; innovation and service jobs are important but insufficient for economic stability by themselves; and government involvement is vital if U.S. manufacturing is to be revived. That's all according to corporate CEO Andrew Liveris, whose bold criticism of American business in his new book, Make It in America: The Case for Re-Inventing the Economy, comes across less as pride than patriotism. The Chairman of Dow Chemical, the Michigan-based Fortune 500 multinational company, Liveris shows the loss of manufacturing as a real threat and offers a realistic roadmap to rebuild the nation's economic core."(Daily Review Atlas)
From the Inside Flap
We used to make things in this country. We were the dazzling innovators, the undisputed world economic leaders, and with our manufacturing engine driving the process, we built a solid, high-achieving middle class and a thriving economy. Now, thanks to policies that are either indifferent to manufacturing or, in fact, downright hostile, we're at the brink of losing it all. If you think this won't affect you, guess again.
In Make It in America: The Case for Re-Inventing the Economy, author Andrew Liveris presents a powerful case for how critically important domestic manufacturing is to the long-term health of the entire U.S. economy, and he issues a candid wake-up call to America to re-invent its manufacturing base before it's too late.
If anyone has street cred on this subject, it's Andrew Liveris. Currently Chairman and CEO of The Dow Chemical Company, one of the world's largest man-ufacturers and one of the most global corporations, he's been on the global manufacturing stage for over thirty years. In this thought-provoking book, Liveris challenges conventional wisdom and, using vivid examples from around the globe, makes clear:
Manufacturing mattersmore than ever before. Not all sectors are created equal. Manufacturing can create jobs and wealth and growth to a degree that the service sector can't match. The rest of the world now sees what America used to understand: the key to economic growth is taking something of lesser value and transforming it into something of greater value. That's what manufacturing does.
The Rust Belt, it turns out, isn't so rusty. Twenty-first- century manufacturing means solar cells for your home, batteries for your hybrid car, the touch screen on your smart phone, and the e-ink in your Kindle. Manufacturing is the key driver of R&D, and the leading edge of innovation.
Government's got to get engaged. Liveris argues it's a false choice to claim that you must be either pro-business or pro-government. Globalization has changed the equation. Governments all over the world are working in partnership withand taking action on behalf oftheir leading industries. Why isn't America?
Liveris sees where America is losing groundfrom innovation to job creationand explains how we can take back our future. Make It in America is a must-read for anyone who believes that America's greatest, most productive, most prosperous days are not behind us. Our best days lie ahead of us if we take proactive measures now. They're still within reach.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
I reserved a truck online for a weekend in Dallas. When I checked in, the counter clerk informed me that the value of the gift card that I had just paid $500 for was only worth $230. When I asked her why, she replied, "because that is the way it is".
When I returned home and contacted the corporate office to ask for a better explanation, their answer was "because that is the way it is." They are merged with National Car Rental so neither of those companies will ever get my business in the future!

Arizona Wildcats
Arizona Wildcats to have new uniforms in 2013
While you should not expect the Arizona Wildcats to go all Oregon Ducks on us, it appears they are going to get new uniforms in 2013.
According to Anthony Gimino's Wildcat Report, there will be small changes to the team's look.
"I guess it's a little bit different look, but it's not a whole lot different. I mean, it's not drastic," Rodriguez recently told TucsonCitizen.com.
Arizona hasn't released details or pictures of the new design, and Rodriguez said he wanted to show the players before discussing it.
"It's not something that you would be like, 'Sheesh, that's completely off the wall,'" Rodriguez said.
The Wildcats debuted a pair of new helmets in 2012, adding both copper and red to the traditional white and blue. Arizona had enough options to where it could wear a different look in each of its 13 games.

I got scammed by NorVergence. They installed a Matrix 2003 box. But there was no ISP for the t1 line or any other connections. I was told that it would be put into service in five weeks.
Next thing I know, I'm getting harassing telephone calls from Popular leasing who now holds the rental agreement saying that I owe them for the rental of equipment- $18712- that's never been put into service and has little to no value to me at all.

Whats taking so long?
DALLAS — As morning sunshine began to push back the surly night on a cold Jan. 28, two big buses rolled into the Grauwyler Park Recreation Center here. Young activists from as far away as Las Cruces and Albuquerque, N.M., who had traveled all night, greeted their Dallas comrades.
The people speak: Bush stimulus plan a bust!
CHICAGO — "Bush offered nothing in his State of the Union talk that will make a damned bit of difference in my life," declared Sarah Smith, a mother of two who works for minimum wage as a cashier at the Halsted Foods supermarket in this city's Bridgeport neighborhood. "Any rebate I would get has to go to pay medical bills I owe on my credit card. That might stimulate the bank but it won't do a thing for my kids and me.

Lot 4 Latrigg Park Carwoola
Latrigg Park, You will probably not know the name, however, if you are the fortunate new owner of this block available in this exclusive rural development of only four properties it will come to mean peace, privacy and seclusion to you situated only nine kilometres from Queanbeyan's CBD and very convenient to the Defence HQ/JOC.
The block is 1.27 hectares and is surrounded by Community land which means the home site achieves maximum privacy. The theme the developers took on this development was that Latrigg Park was to be a small prestigious rural residential community, providing the benefits of private lots in a beautiful natural environment protected by means of a Community Title Agreement.
Jason believes if you inspect the development you will be amazed at how well they have achieved this theme. You will also be impressed by the fact that the building envelope offers more than pleasant views and you can combine a sunny northerly aspect with very appealing northerly views.

From the Inside Flap
"Its hero may ply his craft many decades in the future, with a bomb-proof self-cleaning suit taking the place of a grubby trench coat, but his readiness to risk life, love and sanity to uncover the truth traces a clear path back to Woodward and Bernstein. Equal parts journalistic masterpiece and sci-fi masterclass, Virtually True refuses to let go until long after its earth-shattering finale."--Paul Carr, author of The Upgrade: A Cautionary Tale of Life Without Reservations
"In Virtually True, the imagination fires, the dialogue crackles. Adam Penenberg's deeply imaginative novel is a wild ride of techno-subterfuge rooted in the eternally human quest for identity, and justice."--Paige Williams, narrative writing instructor at the Nieman Foundation for Journalism at Harvard

I have to give it 5/5 ;)
By design, I have disabled the WordPress top menu for a host of reasons. That left one problem regarding Buddypress, that being most plugins and php solutions seek to add buddypress links into that same WordPress bar.
I searched for hours before finding this plugin and in all honesty, I don't typically have time to write reviews, however this plugin gave me cause to let everyone know how wonderful I think this product is.
It truly did exactly what I was needing to accomplish and more. This functionality should have been built into buddypress to start with!
Well done.
This plugin saves so much time! Just use the shortcodes and you get dependent links everywhere you want! You can even create menu's everywhere..
Just perfect. Thanks alot!
Thanks a million. This plugin is a lifesaver. Saved me so much time and efforts.
I love this plugin! Works great with WPMU3.5 and BP1.6.3. I hope this plugin will continue to work in the future.
Works well. Needed to add BuddyPress profile links in posts. This works great for that. Thank you.

Strong buying at the end of a year of INSM shares will lead to dizzying returns next year. Arikace is on track, and the billion dollar potential is only starting to get acknowledged. Just wait till the Russell run-up begins... We may qualify for more inclusions than last time!
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Russell inclusion next year could be absolutely insane compared with our previous inclusions.
With our inclusion last year, very few of the shares allocated to the VCs were unrestricted at the end of May - and thus were not counted when our market cap was calculated to establish our position in the Russell 3000. The higher the position, the greater the number of shares the tracker funds must hold.
This time round all, of the VC shares will be counted.
And if, by the end of May, it should happen that the top-line data from both the dog toxicity study and the EU clinical trial have been released, and if by that point it has been confirmed that Arikace will be assigned a "breakthrough" designation under the recent legislation, the share price imo will be somewhere north of $50 when our market cap is calculated.
My gut feeling is that somewhere north of 20 million shares would have to be acquired next June on behalf of the tracker funds if all three of the criteria I mention are in place by the end of May.

WASHINGTON – As the Obama administration sets out to determine the future for the 193-million-acre National Forest System, a coalition of conservation organizations is calling on people to make their voices heard. They'll get that chance from March 29 through May 12 when the U.S. Forest Service hosts a series of roundtable discussions with citizens across the country to determine how the forests are managed for generations.
SEATTLE — The top ten carbon storing national forests in the U.S. are all found in the moist westside forests in Washington, Oregon and southeast Alaska, according to a new Wilderness Society analysis. The analysis, based on United States Forest Service data, ranks the forests among the Earth's greatest "carbon banks."
FRANKLIN — Real estate and local economies are being threatened as the sea levels of the Albermarle Peninsula off the coast of North Carolina continue to rise. North Carolinians are feeling the effects of climate change, and critical habitats on the peninsula are also at risk.
"Tonight the President is expected to urge the Congress to act to protect the public health by capping the emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. The President should be applauded for remaining steadfast in his support of protecting the public against the shameful dumping of global warming pollution into the atmosphere, harming people, threatening our water supplies, wildlands and wildlife, perpetuating dependence on fossil fuels, and undermining the transition to a clean energy economy.
WASHINGTON - The Wilderness Society today assessed the past 10 years of public lands management, saying it had a Jekyll-and-Hyde flavor.
COPENHAGEN, DENMARK – David Moulton, The Wilderness Society's climate change policy director, issued the following statement on today's address by President Obama at the UNFCC conference in Copenhagen, Denmark:
WASHINGTON — "Today, the Senate Committee took a necessary and welcome step by approving the Clean Energy Jobs Act and sending it to the Senate floor for further action. This action demonstrates the determination of the Senate leadership that the time has come to change business-as-usual when it comes to confronting the threat of global warming.
For Americans who need jobs and a planet that needs protection from heat-trapping pollution, meaningful global warming legislation cannot come soon enough. This latest version of the legislation demonstrates the momentum behind putting America on a path toward clean energy and a more secure economy. Senator Boxer, as well as Senator Kerry and other leaders deserve our thanks for their relentless efforts to create comprehensive clean energy and climate solutions.
This morning, the Senate took a critical step in addressing the threat of global warming with the introduction of the Clean Energy Jobs and American Power Act. It is a strong beginning to meeting the most serious challenge of our time.

Adamek vs. Jennings in Talks For November Clash
By Rick Reeno
Promoter Russell Peltz has confirmed to BoxingScene.com that heavyweight showdown between Tomasz Adamek (49-2, 29KOs) and Bryant Jennings is being discussed for a date in November. Peltz co-promotes Jennings (17-0, 9KOs) with Main Events, who also represent Adamek. Jennings last fought in June, stopping Andrey Fedosov in six rounds. Adamek was inactive since last December, but returned on Saturday night to easily dominate veteran Dominick Guinn over ten rounds.
Both Adamek and Jennings are interested in the fight. The involved promoters would like to get HBO on board to televise the contest.
"Adamek's people appear to be interested in the fight. Jennings wants the fight. We'd like to do that fight in November and place it on HBO. Right now we're just talking and we'll see what happens," Peltz told BoxingScene.com.
Adamek vs Jennings would fit nicely as a co-feature with Pacquiao/Rios (HBO) on November 23.Comment by joe strong on 08-04-2013
