The owner of Roxy's nightclub on Main Street in Allentown pleaded guilty Thursday in Erie County Court to fourth-degree grand larceny and petit larceny charges.
The charges against Julia Greenwood, 41, of Plymouth Avenue, stem from accusations that she stole $4,480 from Key Bank by writing phantom checks from an account at Citizens Bank and deposited them into her Key Bank account, from which she withdrew cash.
Greenwood also admitted that she used a lost credit card belonging to a patron at Roxy's to make $818 in personal purchases between Aug. 26 and Aug. 30.
Sentencing is scheduled for March 26 before Erie County Court Justice Kenneth F. Case. Greenwood faces a maximum sentence of four years in prison.

(NewsUSA) - Vacations should be a time of rest, relaxation and adventure. For too many travelers, they're anything but. A double whammy of stress and anxiety on top of an already compromised immune system is a formula for disaster, sending many jet-setters home sick as dogs. Fortunately, a few essential items are all you need for a safe and healthy getaway. Be prepared for the inevitable with these five health and safety tips:
Bring a first aid kit. While you can't guard against all accidents, you can foresee the minor surprises with some degree of probability. Have something handy to relieve headaches, diarrhea and insect bites. Your "just in case" kit should also have bandages and plenty of antihistamines. You might not know that you're allergic to certain plants or insects until it's too late.
Keep your hands clean. Wash your hands often, especially before eating, to ward off germs and viruses. Rely on hand sanitizer when there is no running water available. Use wet wipes to make sure the surfaces you touch frequently are kept as clean as possible.
Beware of pests. Check the seams of your mattress, cracks and crevices of the headboard, nightstand and drawers for critters or droppings.
Stay hydrated. In a plane or on the road, it's important to stay hydrated while in transit to prevent achy muscles and deep vein thrombosis. At your destination, rely on bottled water for hydration to ward off various bacteria, viruses and other parasites that can cause diarrhea. If you need to use tap water, pack purification tablets just to be safe.
Remember your smartphone. It's a guidebook, GPS, Internet connection, dictionary, camera, alarm clock and restaurant-business-movie theater-gas station-and more locator. It's also a phone that can be used for emergencies anywhere you are. Don't forget to pack yours in case of emergencies.

March 8, 1936 – March 12, 2013
A memorial service for Marcus Richard "Dick" Mabee, a well-known Buffalo real estate agent and longtime Elmwood Village resident, will be at 2 p.m. May 24 in Church of the Ascension, North Street at Linwood Avenue.
Mr. Mabee died March 12 in Stuart, Fla., after a two-decade battle against Parkinson's disease. He was 77.
Born in Albany, he was descended from early Dutch settlers in the upstate area, a proud distinction that inspired his lifelong love of New York State history. Before moving to Florida in 2001, he donated much of his extensive book collection to the 1700s-era Mabee Farm Historic Site in Rotterdam Village, the oldest standing home in the Mohawk Valley.
After moving to Buffalo as a child, he attended public schools, graduating from Bennett High School in 1954. He attended the University of Buffalo. During the 1960s, he was a salesman for Rugby sportswear in New York, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Texas, and trained new sales employees in those and other states. He served in the Army Reserve.
Mr. Mabee later owned Scrimshander Antiques in Allentown, which featured folk art, including furniture, painting and sculpture, and was especially known for its American glassware.
In 1972, he joined the Gurney Becker & Bourne real estate agency, where he reconnected with childhood friend James Bourne and, over a nearly 30-year career in residential and commercial sales, developed a reputation as an expert in architecturally significant properties. He retired as a vice president in 2001.
He was a past member of the Buffalo Board of Realtors and the city Landmark and Preservation Board, where he headed the committee that set boundaries and guidelines for preservation districts. He served on the Buffalo & Erie County Historical Society members advisory board.
Mr. Mabee was a board member of Forever Elmwood, which grew into the Elmwood Village Association. A collector of Mark Twain early editions, he also focused on state history and his family's genealogy. He was a member of Friends of the Mabee House and, after moving to Stuart, became a docent and storyteller at the Elliott Museum.
His many interests included music, travel and fishing, particularly in Ontario's Temagami region.
"Dick was easygoing, entertaining and knowledgeable," characteristics that attracted a wide range of friends, James Bourne said.
A lifelong Episcopalian, Mr. Mabee was a vestryman and senior warden at Church of the Ascension and was a lay representative of the Western New York Diocese at a national church convention.
Survivors include his wife, Johanna Koch Mabee; a son, Marcus Jacob "Jake"; and a sister, Nancy Mabee Flagg.

A one-vehicle crash on Wopsononock Road just beyond the Blair County line in Cambria County on Sunday evening killed an approximately 46-year old man, according to state police.
The driver - whose name police did not release, but whose driver's license listed a Cresson address - was the only occupant of the vehicle, which was wedged against a tree, upside down, about 20 feet off the asphalt, police said.
Based on the absence of skid marks and the presence of "yaw" marks, the driver may have swerved without braking for an animal, police said.

Aman with a Cresson address was killed in a one-vehicle accident on Wopsononock Road, just inside the Cambria County line, on Sunday evening. State police confirmed the fatality but did not release the man's identity pending notification of next of kin.
The car was northbound and went off the right side of the road without veering into the opposite lane, police said.
The accident was about 200 yards north - and on the other side of the road from - a large white cross and a basket for flowers affixed to a tree, apparently in memory of an earlier crash victim.
Initial reports indicated the crash was in Logan Township, Blair County.

Adapting to Evolving Business Environments Is...
Quadruple Helices Appear To Have Role...
LC-MS Gains Favor Due To the...
Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
There were several lessons for CMOs at the recent "BioProcess International Conference," among them notification from Miriam Monge, vp of marketing and disposables implementation at Biopharm Services, that CMOs must significantly reduce development and manufacturing costs.
"The success of monoclonal antibodies is reflected in the major growth in manufacturing capacity," said Monge. However, "high capital investment, coupled with high operating costs, and inflexible facilities have contributed to the high price of mAb-based treatments.
"Starting in process development we have to develop efficient, robust processes more quickly," Monge continued, "and with greater success. We then have to transfer the processes efficiently into flexible, low-cost manufacturing facilities."
One of the speakers giving tips on how to improve technology transfer was Kristi Huntington, associate technical consultant at Eli Lilly and Co. Her presentation focused on how Lilly Ireland overcame the challenges it faced in transferring production of an inlicensed biologic to a facility that had never before made a biotech product. The production process was not well understood nor was it optimized. "We had limited information and data, and so we had to learn the nuances of the process," she explained.
First and foremost, she said, the tech transfer team needs to prepare a plan. "This insures up-front alignment of the key players with fewer surprises and a bigger chance of getting the process right the first time."
Owing to the accelerated project timeline, five teams worked on this tech transfer, although there was not a formal plan which, Huntington admitted, was not ideal. Despite facing significant technical challenges, two batches of API were made within a year. This success is a tribute to the positive attitude and commitment of those involved. "The learning from this tech transfer was priceless for Lilly Ireland," she commented. "It really set the stage for our upcoming new biotech facility."
Among the lessons learned was never to underestimate the need for experienced biotech operators, which "is absolutely key to the success of the process execution," said Huntington. "We also underestimated the technical complexity of the molecule."
CMOs can also speed up tech transfer by adopting new tools and technologies. Susanne Wallenborg, Ph.D., section manager of R&D, life sciences at GE Healthcare, described the role that high-throughput process development (HTPD) can play in tech transfer. Efficient process development is key to developing a robust and efficient manufacturing process, she said.
HTPD allows exploration of a larger experimental space and supports the definition of a well-established process design space where the critical process parameters that really need to be controlled and monitored are completely understood," Dr. Wallenborg explained.
Key to HTPD is the GE PreDictor™ plate, a 96-well plate product prefilled with chromatography media. The product can be used throughout downstream processing to screen for binding capacity, wash and elution conditions, adsorption isotherms, and CIP conditions, Dr. Wallenborg said.
But it is not just innovative technology that is important to CMOs these days— organizational culture also plays a role. Fadel Hamed, Ph.D., head of operational excellence at Genentech, said that being "world class is a never-ending pursuit of perfection." Companies aspiring to world-class status can use operational excellence (OE) to help them to deal with the challenges of the biopharmaceutical business. Dr. Hamed defined OE as the "routine delivery of exceptional performance through a systematic approach to continuous process improvement."
OE has three stages. In the foundation phase, the infrastructure required to improve current operations is set up; in the incremental phase, operations are optimized to deliver a predictable performance; and the final and most difficult phase, which is known as transformation, sets a company well on the road to being world class. "Most companies will not reach the transformation stage," Dr. Hamed claimed.
OE at Genentech is based upon a Lean/DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control) approach, which is a data-driven problem-solving methodology for delivering business results. Dr. Hamed explained that, "variation is the enemy, and we have to control it—Lean/DMAIC gives us a mechanism to do so."
"OE is about attitude and having a continuous improvement mindset," he added. At Genentech, it is focused upon reliability, simplicity, and growth. However, one should beware of islands of excellence. What is needed is end-to-end OE throughout the whole organization to identify any weak areas.
With a team of just 10 OE people, Genentech delivered $54 million in savings in 2008. Dr. Hamed explained that 30 different factors have been identified in the failure of OE, and the most important of these is leadership. "Leadership must be committed and accountable," he concluded.

A 23-year-old Buffalo gun trafficker, called "a dangerous individual" by Mayor Byron W. Brown when he hailed his arrest in June, has pleaded guilty to weapons charges and faces a lengthy prison term.
Kareem A. "Decatur" Howard, of Clark Street, pleaded guilty to second-degree criminal possession of a weapon and second-degree criminal sale of a firearm before State Supreme Court Justice M. William Boller, the Erie County District Attorney's Office announced Wednesday.
Howard admitted selling nine guns to undercover officers during an investigation by state and city police. The investigation started when a city police officer became aware of his activities and developed information on his business, according to authorities.
Howard could face up to 25 years in prison on each count when sentenced Nov. 9.
Brown and Buffalo Police Commissioner Daniel Derenda gathered with state and federal law enforcement officials at Police Headquarters in June after Howard's arrest to talk about their efforts to halt gun trafficking.
The total of nine handguns Howard admitted to selling on four occasions ranged from 9 mm semiautomatics to .45- and .38-caliber weapons.
Authorities have said that Howard bought some of his handguns in Georgia and brought them back to Buffalo and that one of the guns was stolen in a Niagara County burglary.

Dallas Fire-Rescue restricts ambulance call information on 'live incidents' website
Ambulance chasers and reporters may have a harder time chasing after Dallas Fire-Rescue.
As the sweet and cuddly "Barking Dog" first pointed out yesterday, DFR has removed details of certain calls on its "live incidents" web page.
The page appears to be currently frozen in time, so no new calls are updating at this moment. But when it gets fixed, a department spokesman tells us we will no longer see any details related to ambulance calls.
"It will still say EMS incident," said DFR Lt. Joel Lavender. "It just won't tell you exactly what happened. You'll know the hundred block instead of the actual physical address."
Lavender said the change was made to better comply with HIPAA, that pesky 1996 federal health privacy act.
"We're trying to follow the letter of the law in a way that respects privacy and also allows the media their access," Lavender said.
The restriction is the latest way the City of Dallas seems to be cracking down on the flow of information to the public. I've written in the past about various problems with the Dallas police incident report system and, more recently, about possible Dallas police violations of state open records laws.
Attorney General Greg Abbott has previously said the city is a "repeat offender" in limiting access.
The Barking Dog aka Avi Adelman is barking about this one.
"Blaming everything on HIPAA is an easy scapegoat method that needs to be stopped," Adelman writes on his blog. "Or simply stated, better to post too much (legally released) information than not enough."

NSCLC is "Major Battlefield" as Merck,...
University of California, San Francisco researchers report that a key protein associated with Parkinson's disease also plays a major role in the destruction of the bacteria that cause tuberculosis.
Malfunctioning of the Parkin protein has already been tied to the loss of nerve cells, which leads to Parkinson's. UCSF's Jeffery Cox, Ph.D., and his collaborators now say that Parkin also acts on tuberculosis, triggering destruction of Mycobacterium tuberculosis by macrophages. Results of their study ("The ubiquitin ligase Parkin mediates resistance to intracellular pathogens") appear online today in Nature.
The finding suggests that disease-fighting strategies currently under investigation in preclinical studies for Parkinson's disease might also prove useful in attacking tuberculosis, according to Dr. Cox, who is working on increasing the activity of Parkin in TB-infected mice. Dr. Cox focused on the enzyme Parkin as a common element in Parkinson's and tuberculosis through his studies of how macrophages engulf and destroy bacteria (xenophagy).
M. tuberculosis initially invades the macrophage, but then becomes engulfed in a sac within the macrophage that is pinched off from the cell's outer membrane. The bacteria often escape by secreting a protein that degrades the sac, only to be targeted yet again by molecular chains made from another protein (ubiquitin). Previously, Dr. Cox discovered molecules that escort these chained mycobacteria to more secure confinement within lysosomes, where the bacteria are destroyed.
The cells of nonbacterial organisms ranging in complexity from baker's yeast to humans also use a similar mechanism—called autophagy—to dispose of their own unneeded molecules or worn out cellular components. Among the most abundant and crucial of these components are the cell's mitochondria.
Like other cellular components, mitochondria can wear out and malfunction, and often require replacement. The process through which mitochondria are disposed of (mitophagy) depends on Parkin.
Dr. Cox became curious about the enzyme when he learned that polymorphisms in the Parkin gene are associated with increased susceptibility to tuberculosis infection. "Because of the commonalities between mitophagy and the xenophagy of intracellular mycobacteria, as well as the links between Parkin gene polymorphisms and increased susceptibility to bacterial infection in humans, we speculated that Parkin may also be recruited to M. tuberculosis, [targeting] it for xenophagy," Dr. Cox said.
In both mouse and human macrophages infected with M. tuberculosis in the lab, Parkin played a key role in fighting the bacteria In addition, genetically engineered mice lacking Parkin died when infected with M. tuberculosis, while mice with normal Parkin survived infection.
The involvement of Parkin in targeting both damaged mitochondria and infectious mycobacteria arose long ago in evolution, according to Dr. Cox.
"Our findings reveal that Parkin regulates a common cellular program by which metazoans [multicellular animals] mediate quality control of endogenous mitochondria (self) and eradicate harmful bacterial pathogens (nonself)," he and his colleagues wrote in the Nature article. "Although these two activities are seemingly disparate, the evolutionary origin of mitochondria from a bacterial endosymbiont suggests that perhaps mitochondrial dysfunction triggers the recognition of the organelle as nonself."
Having now demonstrated the importance of Parkin in fighting mycobacterial infection, Dr. Cox has begun working with UCSF's Kevan Shokat, Ph.D., to find a way to boost Parkin activity against cell-invading bacteria.
"We are exploring the possibility that small-molecule drugs could be developed to activate Parkin to better fight tuberculosis infection," explained Dr. Cox.
Summarizing the team's work, Dr. Cox and his colleagues write that "This work highlights the unexpected connection between mitochondrial-based neuronal disorders and susceptibility to bacterial infection in humans. Recent genome-wide association studies on inflammatory bowel disease, which is linked to altered hostgut microbe interactions, have identified susceptibility single nucleotide polymoprhisms within LRRK2 and PARK7, two genes canonically associated with Parkinson's disease. Thus, we surmise that genes typically associated with neuronal maintenance or mitophagy may have broad roles in cellular homeostasis within various cell types."

Concerns about juvenile justice system being addressed
August 12, 2013
Mountain State Justice, a Charleston-based public interest law firm, deserves a lot of the credit for its role in a decision made by West Virginia's Department of Military Affairs and Public Safety......
The Conservatives "War on Drugs" hasn't worked either. It has just turned our prisons and the inmates into big business so that a few get rich while the rest of us pay.
How about making the drugs themselves legal and taxing them. If someone does something criminal while using drugs, incarcerate them for that instead of just mere possession. It would reduce the number of people we are supporting in prison with our tax dollars.
As for juveniles, which this article was about, they will all get out of prison. It would be much better to rehabilitate them and teach them usable job and life skills so that many of them don't end up right back in prison.
Would rather have them in prison on your tax dollars or out in the community, working for a living and paying taxes?

While driving home one night, the neon lights of the Irvine Improv called his name. Hey Richard!
Seizing the moment of amateur night, Richard grabbed the microphone, went on stage, and has not stopped since. Using stories of his childhood, Richard Villa turned what he thought were basic experiences into autobiographical satirical humor that depict life for Latinos and other minorities in the United States. Amid his newfound talent in improvisation, Richard was accepted to The Groundlings Theatre Group.
With his comedy and thorough understanding of his audience, Richard Villa became the first Latino to ever host the renowned Hollywood Improv on Friday nights. Sharing the stage with various other talent such as Jeff Garcia, Carlos Mancilla, Gabriel Iglesia, Mike Epps, Orlando Jones and Dat Phan, Richard Villa quickly took over co-host duties at the Ha-Ha in North Hollywood, and the Ontario and Brea Improv.
His ability to appeal to the audience earned him a special invitation by the U.S. Military to perform for the troops on the Combat Comedy Tour which included Iraq, Unit, May, Kyrgyzstan, Afghanistan, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Djibouti, and Saudi Arabia.
In 2005 Vanguard Cinema released Richards 1st DVD, called Richard Villa: Performing This Way.
Now being hailed as the leader for the new generation of Latino Comics, Richard Villa exemplifies dedication to making other people laugh. With his television appearances on Mun2s Loco Comedy Jam, HBO Latino and Los Angeles based LATV, Richard Villa has turned his talent into animation, becoming a writer and voiceover for MTVs Latin animation, Chico y Guapo.
In a personal project, Richard Villa is aiming at introducing his audience to Border Patrol Tales, a sketch comedy show depicting the social impact and influence of immigrants in the United States.

Darcy Regier got to know Mikhail Grigorenko the past three months as a player and person. The Sabres' general manager believes Grigorenko will grow into a top-line center who will shine in Buffalo.
The 18-year-old isn't ready to do that now, however.
The Sabres sent their top prospect back to the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League on Friday, temporarily ending his NHL stay after 22 mostly uneventful games.
"There's been benefits for us," Regier said in First Niagara Center. "There's benefits for him. We got to know his game. He got to know us. He has a very good understanding of what he needs to do, and he gets to go back and he's going to have the opportunity to practice and work on those things."
Grigorenko had one goal and five points while averaging just 9:44 of ice time. He impressed the Sabres during a brief training camp after putting up 29 goals and 50 points in 32 games with the Quebec Remparts. The junior team has one regular-season game remaining before starting the playoffs.
"It is big news and a big surprise for us," a Remparts spokesman said by phone.
Regier expects the 12th overall pick in the 2012 draft to resume his role as the Remparts' go-to guy.
"At some point in his NHL career, that's what we're going to expect here out of him, but it's not fair to look for that out of an 18-year-old," Regier said. "He surprised all of us by being here for the length of time he has been here. Depending on how far they go in the playoffs, he will return here at the end of the season."
T.J. Brennan also departed Friday as the Sabres shipped the defenseman to Florida for a fifth-round pick in this June's draft. Brennan's hot start in Rochester didn't translate to Buffalo, as the Amerks' leading scorer during the lockout had just one goal in 10 games with the Sabres.
Brennan, 23, was usually Buffalo's seventh or eighth defenseman, but the team figured he would not clear waivers to return to Rochester. He had 14 goals and 35 points in 36 games with the Amerks. The Sabres picked him in the second round in 2007.
"We weren't able to get him in our lineup," Regier told the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle while watching the Amerks host Albany. "Obviously, if somebody's prepared to pay a draft pick, he wasn't going to clear waivers."
The oft-traveled draft pick acquired by the Sabres originally belonged to the New Jersey Devils and was sent to Los Angeles before going to the Panthers.
Like Brennan, Grigorenko's role with the Sabres has been miniscule since Feb. 9. He topped 10 minutes of ice time just twice in 11 games and was scratched five times. He'd been relegated to a fourth-line role and played just 4:51 against the New York Rangers on Tuesday.
It's not what the Sabres hoped for after they decided to keep the Russian rookie past his five-game tryout and use up the initial year of his entry-level contract.
"Really it was about whether or not he was going to be able to get his minutes up to a level where he could continue the development," Regier said. "What drove the decision was we really were using him in a fourth line-type role where we were hoping to get him in to create some offense. But his minutes really probably topped out at 10 minutes, and in the end he's got an opportunity to go back to Quebec and be the go-to guy."
The Sabres, who host the Ottawa Senators this afternoon, are near the bottom of the NHL. It's created a thought process that maybe they should use Grigorenko and other young players extensively to get them used to the league.
"The bind you get into is it's a team game, it's a team sport," Regier said. "You can only go so far to give the individual something at the expense of the rest of the team. ... A teammate recognizes whether someone is gratuitously given something or has earned it, and you need to keep the team concept in place."
While hesitant to call the decision to start the year with Grigorenko an "experiment," Regier admitted he wasn't sure how things would turn out. Though Grigorenko failed to establish himself or last the entire season, the GM doesn't view it as a failed experiment.
"You can view these things as an accumulation of knowledge and skills," Regier said, "and utilizing what you've learned to take to the junior and build on that and then come back here at some point. It's all about the mind-set and the perspective that individual holds versus being a victim, which is largely about, 'I can't believe this happened to me.'
"Based on my conversations with him, I think this has been a very good thing because I think he's got a very good mind-set."
Based on the Sabres' spot in the standings, Grigorenko won't be the last player to depart (or arrive) in Buffalo. But Regier says not to expect widespread change.
"I'm not in a blow-it-up mind-set," he said. "Blowing up to me means blowing up, nothing left. No, I'm not in that mind-set, but I am in the mind-set that organizationally we have to find a way in order to win a championship to acquire more top players."
The trade deadline is April 3, and the NHL's general managers will gather Wednesday in Toronto for their annual meetings.
"There are a lot of calls to try and get a sense of what the market is and what the cost is going to be, so the activity is going to pick up," Regier said. "Our focus, it's not just about the playoffs. It's about the ability to win a championship with the group of players you have, so that extends beyond this season."

We've all made verbal mistakes. The goal is to lessen our chances for verbal blunders. The most likely time for error occurs when a family member, friend, or colleague tells of his diagnosis. Casual acquaintances usually find out after the dust has settled, but those closest to the situation, whether prepared or not, are likely to react viscerally. Even the period before the test results come in may be a volatile one. If, for example, you say to your friend who's awaiting biopsy results, "It's nothing," you're denying the very real anxiety felt by the person awaiting those results.
As one who was told by many, "It's nothing," and found out twice that "nothing" was really something, I recommend saying, "It's likely to be nothing serious," or "I hope it's nothing." This changes wishful thinking into a reality check. It may not be wise to say, "You'll be fine." "You'll probably be fine" is a better choice. The first statement makes you sound omnipotent. Of course, you want the patient to be fine. You can't deal with the possibility that she won't be fine any more than she can. Assuming everything will be all right, however, doesn't give the patient "wiggle room." How can he speak to you of his fears of treatment, of dying, of disfigurement, if you say everything will be fine? It shuts down the communication artery, which is exactly what you don't want to do. Changing one word can change the tone of the message.
Remember that waiting for test results gives new meaning to Einstein's theory of relativity. This is a particularly stressful time. The cancer clock is on for the patient.
There are no absolutes, just guidelines. One size does not fit all. One guideline may be that less is more. Pause before you speak. It's perfectly OK to say, "I don't know what to say." There is no single perfect response, no litany for proper speech. Everyone is in a state of shock when a diagnosis is made. The patient, too, may not know what to say. Your response could be as simple as "I'm sorry to hear that." If you're a close friend or member of the family, an expletive may communicate what you need to say. A hug may be just the right response.
A screaming toddler is told by his parents, "Use your words." We need to do the same. Although cancer is no longer the silent disease, it still, in many instances, strangles us verbally and emotionally. It should not be a disease of miscommunication as well as runaway cells.
How Are You?
I would be remiss if I did not include a reference here to the question most commonly asked of the patient, "How are you?" There is inherently nothing wrong with such a question. But is it the standard "How are you?" we routinely ask when we aren't really interested in the answer? Is it the mundane "How are you?" where the expected reply is the one word "fine," or "OK?" Or is the actual question, "How are you, really?" A variation could be "How are you today?" This permits focus on a cancer snapshot rather than the entire album. Recovery is measured in small steps. Just adding the word today may give your friend an opportunity to indicate progress in the last 24 hours. Conversely, if it's been a bad day, you both are speaking of only one day; the implication is that tomorrow might be a better day. In any case, if you ask the question, be prepared for the real answer. The question does connote caring and concern. It is often the way that communication starts. In general, if you're not prepared for the answer, don't ask the question.
It's critical that even the "How are you?" question be an open-ended one. As a patient, I needed to know there would be space for my truth, my words, whether they were upbeat or not. The "How are you?" question should give me the opportunity to speak of my fear, concerns, and even anger. We may all be in denial about cancer at times, but as a friend, caregiver, loved one, you need to let me know that I can have my moments of truth, painful as those moments might be. Good words can do that.

His actual training was provided mainly by Bade Ghulam Ali Khan's three brothers Barqat Ali Khan, Mubarak Ali Khan, and Amanat Ali Khan, in Lahore.

One of the masterpieces by Allama Iqbal includes the nazm which goes - "Lab pe aati hai dua ..." It is a kind of dua (prayer) which asks God to bless us with some beautiful things like love for the entire world, love for one's country, love for knowledge that becomes a blessing for the entire mankind and lastly, compassion for all human beings. This soulful nasheed has been sung by melodious but a little unheard singer -- Siza
Probably the greatest song by AR Rahman. This song, literally, brings me to tears every time i hear it...sums up all the feelings i experience when missing India. I love INDIA and its people! Saare jahan se acha, yeh Hindustan hamara! Here's the translation: This country of yours is your motherland And is calling out to you This is a bond which can never break How can you forget the scent of your earth You can go anywhere but you'll always come back In new paths, in every sigh To your lost heart Someone will say This land of yours is your motherland Life is telling you You have achieved everything now what's left Looks like happiness has been showered on you But you're far from your home Now come back oh crazy one Where at least someone will call you their own And will call out to you That very same country This land that is yours.. This moment has hidden in it A whole century of life Don't ask why, in the road Has come a fork with two ways You are the one who should choose the path You should choose which direction to take This very country This country of yours is your motherland.

The 64-year-old Nyad plans to swim for 48 hours straight next month, accompanied by celebrities swimming laps alongside her, in a specially designed swimming pool that will be erected in New York City to raise money for Superstorm Sandy survivors.
Although the swimmer insists she isn't trying to prove anything – "I didn't do this because I was in my 60s. I just happened to be in my 60s," she says – she acknowledges that her success is having an impact, "not just on people of my generation but on younger people."
"I have a godson who's 14 and he texted me yesterday and said, 'I'm never in my life again going to call someone in their 60s old. It's over. You just proved that youth doesn't have anything to do with age.'"
And at one point during an interview Tuesday with the Associated Press, the bronzed, muscular athlete couldn't resist sharing a message of encouragement and solidarity with those of her generation:
"Baby Boomer power!" she declared, with a triumphant fist pump.
On her fifth try, Nyad finished the 110-mile swim from Havana to Key West on Monday in 53 hours, becoming the first to do it without a shark cage. She said that while she is slower than she was back in her 20s when she first gained national attention for swimming around Manhattan and from the Bahamas to Florida, she feels she is actually stronger.
"Now I'm more like a Clydesdale: I'm a little thicker and stronger – literally stronger, I can lift more weights," Nyad told the AP.
"I feel like I could walk through a brick wall. ... I think I'm truly dead center in the prime of my life at 64."

I've recently created a white-paper about several options to do TCP/IP programming on the JVM. I'm giving here the introduction and the table of contents to give you an impression what's this all about. The white-paper comes with full source-code and is 27 pages long, so it's a bit too much for a blog entry. Get it here, if you want to take a look.
The purpose of this document is threefold. Firstly, it should give the reader a historical overview of the TCP/IP networking API's, programming paradigms, and various coding styles on the Java Virtual Machine. Secondly, it presents a couple of new options, programming-models, and demonstrates the same with Scala, one of the new languages available on the JVM. Lastly, a small and simple benchmark was conducted, to relate these different strategies with to each other on the metrics of performance.
The discussion is centred wholly around the Java Virtual Machine for a couple of reasons. First and foremost, one regularly deals with several programming languages and several libraries. Basing everything around the JVM provides the opportunity to eliminate issues such as the language implementation, memory management, interfaces to the host operating-system, etc. Besides this advantage, the JVM is the foundation for a large amount of Open Source libraries, tools, including excellent support from a couple of free IDEs that it became the platform of many web applications. The platform is mature, versatile and widely available.
To showcase the various API's, languages and programming models, and to give the programmer an impression as to how such source code looks like, five very trivial server programs that write a simple HTML page to any client, which tries to open a TCP/IP connection to such a server, were created. Since all five programs run on the Java Virtual Machine, this page-generating method has converged to a single utility-class, which is shared among the five programs. Therefore, risks arising from inconsistent behaviour and performance, because the programs were developed in different programming languages - Java and Scala, were eliminated.

TEMPE, Ariz. – Before the Buffalo Bills left the visiting locker room Sunday in San Francisco, running back Tashard Choice stood up and gave an impassioned speech following the team's second straight embarrassing loss.
He shared some of what that message was Thursday.
"Just our mind-set, it felt like we were lacking our energy," he said. "The seriousness, the importance of every game, every snap. I wanted them to realize that. We've got to continue to feel that, continue to be the aggressor. How we played, I was really disappointed because I know how hard we work during the week. I know what kind of good players we've got."
Choice continued.
"Instead of being friends with each other, we need to be more like brothers. Brothers can fight. Brothers tell each other, 'you gotta pick it up.' And it's never against somebody, it's just to build the team, to make the team better," he said. "My point to them was we've got to play better, we've got to come out with more energy and the game of football has to be like you're just playing it for the first time, where you wanted to make the plays."
The fifth-year running back called on his teammates to show their desire.
"Everybody's got to have the 'want to.' Want to be the player that's going to change the game, want to be the player that's going to make the big tackle," he said. "If we've got 11 guys on the field at all times that have got a lot of that want to, then we'll be fine because we've got the talent.
"We should never get beat like that with the type of players we've got, and everybody understood that."
The entire team, including the coaching staff, was present for Choice's speech. He asked coach Chan Gailey before addressing the team.
"It was on my mind. It was on my heart and I couldn't hold it," he said. "I love football. And more importantly I love my teammates. It had to be said."
Choice said the reaction among his teammates was simple: "Let's go. No more talking, let's do it."
To a man, the Bills have recognized the importance of Sunday's game.
"To win a game on the road when everyone's doubting you, it's a snowball effect. It can go either way," Choice said. "It can go downhill and your whole season can slip away. But then if somebody makes that big play like I was talking about, it's crazy how the effect of that energy can go to the offense, the defense, the special teams. It's a big game and we've got to treat it like it's the biggest one, because it is."
Bills defensive tackle Kyle Williams was supposed to practice Thursday at Arizona State, but missed his second straight session with an ankle injury.
Gailey didn't sound concerned about Williams' status.
"It's not the same one he had the surgery on," the coach said, referring to the injury that ended Williams' 2011 season after five games. "We're just resting him."
Reserve offensive lineman Chad Rinehart, expected to start in place of injured right guard Kraig Urbik, was healthy enough to practice Thursday in a limited capacity. Rinehart has been dealing with a calf injury that prevented him from finishing last Sunday's game and was unable to practice Wednesday.
Gailey said seeing Rinehart on the field Thursday "bodes well. We'll probably rest him [Friday], but we wanted to see what he had, and it was encouraging."
Center Eric Wood (foot) and safety Jairus Byrd (chest) each were limited for a second straight day but are expected to play Sunday.
On the Arizona side, cornerback Michael Adams (hamstring), linebacker Quentin Groves (hamstring), fullback Anthony Sherman (knee), cornerback Greg Toler (hamstring) and linebacker Reggie Walker (head) all did not practice for a second straight day.
All-Pro defensive tackle Darnell Dockett led a list of four players who were limited in practice for the Cardinals. Dockett is coming back from a hamstring injury. The others were tight end Jim Dray (knee), tight end Todd Heap (knee) and linebacker O'Brien Schofield (knee).
Running back LaRod Stephens-Howling, who has missed the past two games with a hip injury, practiced fully Thursday after being limited Wednesday. Others practicing fully for Arizona were running back William Powell (head), quarterback John Skelton (ankle) and guard Adam Snyder (elbow).

Tuberculosis (TB) and the emerging multidrug-resistant TB epidemic represent major challenges to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) care and treatment programs in resource-limited settings. Tuberculosis is a major cause of mortality among patients with HIV and poses a risk throughout the course of HIV disease, even after successful initiation of antiretroviral therapy (ART). Progress in the implementation of activities directed at reducing TB burden in the HIV population lags far behind global targets. HIV programs designed for longitudinal care are ideally suited to implement TB control measures and have no option but to address TB vigorously to save patient lives, to safeguard the massive investment in HIV treatment, and to curb the global TB burden. We propose a framework of strategic actions for HIV care programs to optimally integrate TB into their services. The core activities of this framework include intensified TB case finding, treatment of TB, isoniazid preventive treatment, infection control, administration of ART, TB recording and reporting, and joint efforts of HIV and TB programs at the national and local levels.
TB indicates tuberculosis; ART, antiretroviral therapy; HIV, human immunodeficiency virus. Schematic of risk of TB and CD4 cell count decline from onset of HIV seroconversion until 6 years after ART initiation for an individual living in a TB endemic area. This hypothetical individual presents to HIV care and starts ART when the CD4 cell count is 100 cells/μL. Fold change risk of TB is relative to HIV-uninfected population. Schema is based on data from published cohort studies.7- 13

THE GENIUS OF EARTH DAY: How a 1970 Teach-in Unexpectedly Made the First Green Generation. By Adam Rome. Hill and Wang. 346 pages. $30.
Monday marks the 43rd Earth Day. Most Americans living today were not yet born when Earth Day's planners heralded a cultural awakening, the coalescing of an environmental groundswell that had been mounting for decades.
Adam Rome records the history of Earth Day's momentous beginnings in this thorough evocation.
"Earth Day," asserts Rome, "was an educational experience as well as a political demonstration."
Conceived by Gaylord Nelson, a Democratic senator from Wisconsin, as a national teach-in, the first Earth Day took place over weeks and months, a happening of more than 12,000 speeches, rallies and protests, leading up to April 22. On that day in Manhattan, a quarter-million people gathered on Fifth Avenue and 14th Street. Fifty blocks were closed to traffic.
Prominent speakers, including New York Mayor John Lindsay, proclaimed the new awareness, and singers, Pete Seeger among them, urged the crowd to action.
Nationally, Earth Day events varied in scope and venue, but pollution and overpopulation were at the top of most agendas.
Some 20 million Americans participated in the day's events, and Rome cites a conservative estimate that 35,000 individuals addressed the crowds nationwide.
The environmental movement before Earth Day was not actually a movement but a collection of fragmented efforts at grass-roots organizing.
Rome describes in detail the different groups that came together as a social and political force and conveyed an ecological ethos to the nation.
Scientists, notably Rachel Carson, Barry Commoner and Paul Ehrlich, played a crucial role in illuminating the environmental predicament to a universal audience.
Progressive political thinkers, including Arthur Schlesinger Jr. and John Kenneth Galbraith, advocated a "qualitative liberalism" focused on enhancing public goods such as fresh air, clean water and unspoiled countryside.
The National Audubon Society and the Sierra Club intensified the drumbeat for conservation as their memberships surged. America's youths, the baby-boomers who fought for civil rights and to end the Vietnam War, found in environmentalism a third platform for their activism.
Mayors, governors, senators, congressmen and even presidents listened to the grass-roots coalitions and proposed legislation in response.
"The Genius of Earth Day" explains what made Gaylord Nelson's teach-in a momentous success. Earth Day symbolized a new conception of humanity's connections to the natural world and of human beings' relationships with one another.
The events of April 22, 1970, changed the thinking of many Americans, some of whom Rome profiles in the book's epilogue. In Earth Day's wake came shifts in national policies, most notably the Clean Air Act and the Clean Water Act of 1972, as environmental groups gained a foothold in Washington's inner circles.
The enthusiasms of Earth Day 1970, wrote Gladwin Hill of The New York Times at the end of the decade, "have been 'institutionalized' in legislation, regulation, litigation, political dynamics and new personal values, and woven into the fabric of national life."
These accomplishments are impressive and should be remembered.
But what about today? What is Earth Day's relevance in 2013? "The Genius of Earth Day" does not address these questions, and Rome at no point acknowledges the mammoth environmental problems and political obstacles that we face.
Elected officials seem less responsive to the public will now than they were in the giddy days of the 1960s and '70s. It is striking to read the progressive language of that era, bolder and without equivocation, in contrast to the timid and cowed liberalism of today.
Environmentalism was not a partisan issue in the 1960s; both Republicans and Democrats supported policies designed to protect the environment. Compounding political stagnation are the pressures from the staggering increase in the world's population: There are 50 percent more of us today than there were in 1970. Threats to the planet's livability and to the Earth's remarkable biodiversity are more complex and harder to solve than simply cleaning up polluted streams and freshening the air we breathe.
Yet Rome's retelling of the hopeful origins of Earth Day and its early successes contains an important lesson for today. The social movements and anti-war crusades that swept through the country in the 1960s and '70s and the movement to promote respect for the natural world demonstrate the tremendous power of activism and grass-roots organizing.
Forming coalitions with like-minded groups and individuals and acting collectively for the greater good is a wonderful thing. Striving to make the world better suited to sustain life of all kinds is acting on our greatest virtues. Every year, Earth Day should remind us of this truth.

One of the recruits that decommitted from Vanderbilt to follow James Franklin to Penn State now has decommitted to Penn State, as well.
Louisville, Ky.'s Lloyd Tubman, rated as high as a four-star defensive end by some recruiting services, alerted several media members on Tuesday that he was withdrawing his pledge from the Nittany Lions on the eve of national signing day.
Tubman didn't eliminate the Lions, saying he will sign this morning with Penn State, Kentucky or Nebraska. However, most feel Tubman will wind up choosing the Wildcats, because he didn't even make a scheduled visit to Nebraska over the weekend.
If Tubman makes the switch, it will be the fourth school to which he was committed. Initially, he announced he planned to go to Western Kentucky, then changed his mind and committed to Franklin when the coach was at Vanderbilt.
When Franklin took the Penn State job, Tubman almost immediately flipped his commitment to Penn State.
There are indications that Franklin and his staff felt Tubman wasn't likely to stick with the Lions. On Tuesday, they extended a last-minute scholarship offer to a similar prospect, Alabama athlete Torrence Brown. The 6-foot-4, 228-pound Brown currently is committed to Southern Mississippi but had offers from Arizona State, West Virginia, North Carolina State and UConn, as well - Vanderbilt recruited him, too, when Franklin was there.
"He's going to be a great college player," Tuscaloosa Academy coach Robert Johnson said in an interview with AL.com. "He's going to be dynamite. He' still growing, he's coachable, he's a smart kid and he still gets after it. He's going to do great."
Brown played running back, tight end, wide receiver, defensive end and linebacker as a senior on his high school team.
"He's a big, rangy kid with good size," Johnson said. "He has the frame to comfortably carry 250 pounds. He runs very well, jumps well and has real good instincts. Defensively, he reads plays really quickly. He'll fit in a hybrid scheme as an outside linebacker who can put his hands on the ground and rush the passer."
Brown isn't believed to have ever been to Penn State.
In addition to Brown and Tubman, Penn State will be waiting to hear a decision today from Florida cornerback Lamont Simmons. Although a consensus three-star prospect, Simmons owns an impressive list of scholarship offers, including Auburn, Virginia Tech, Michigan State, Wisconsin, Georgia, Arkansas and Tennessee. He's expected to choose either Penn State or USC, with most analysts thinking it will be the Trojans.
Penn State already has 24 members in this recruiting class, so, if more than one of the Brown, Tubman and Simmons chooses the Lions, the team will have to make some adjustments with enrollment dates so as not to go over NCAA scholarship limits.

Michael Dorsey says he turned to The Biggest Loser because he was tired of committing a slow "suicide."
"I don't understand why I was so willing to sacrifice my life when it was something I could fix," Dorsey told reporters of weighing 444 lbs. when he began the show. "I realized that my headspace wasn't right."
On the ranch, Dorsey, 34, was able to make the mental shift necessary to begin losing weight and became a frontrunner for the title of The Biggest Loser – a circumstance he feels ultimately led to being voted out by his housemates, including roommate and alliance member Jeff Nichols.
"Jeff and I are in a good place. We have talked and he has his reasons for what he did. And even without his vote I was still going home," Dorsey said. "I guess some would argue that they would have been stupid for not voting me out because I was a big threat."
But in the week before he was sent home, Dorsey spent 24-hours with his wife and baby son, "Little" Mike, on the ranch as part of a prize gifted to him by fellow contestant Dannielle Allen.
"I was blessed that my wife got to spend a day [on the ranch] because when I got home it made it much easier [because] she understood, 'Yes, you've got to get your burn. You've got to eat by a certain time.' She's really caught the vision," Dorsey said.
Now 124 lbs. lighter and back at home in Baltimore, Dorsey is continuing on his weight-loss journey but is embarking on another adventure as well – rollercoasters!
"I'm trying to ride rollercoasters all over the country," he said. "This is an exciting moment for me because it's something I haven't been able to do for several years."
And while he considers himself a contender for the $100,000 at-home prize at the season finale, Dorsey is more focused on being a happier, healthier husband and father for years to come.
"On the show you have two choices: You live for the show or you live for after the show," he said. "And you know what, I [am] living for after the show."

Cruising over the Ravenel Bridge with the air conditioning blasting, it's easy to gaze out at the confluence of the Ashley and the Cooper rivers and think, wouldn't it be nice to be on the water today?
But getting oneself out of the driver's seat and onto a surfboard, a stand-up paddleboard or kayak is quite a different story.
Luckily, professionals and some enthusiastic moms report there's not only nothing to fear but loads to be gained.
Chair of the board
"Big" Jon Ory of Charleston SUP Safaris can attest to that.
The certified wilderness first responder began his company 11 years ago and has since seen a boom in women joining the sport.
"Eighty percent of my clients are female and between the ages of 25 to 35. We have a lot of younger mothers," he says.
Even better? The learning curve on a paddleboard is three seconds, Orly claims. "The expression I like to use is if you can cook breakfast in the kitchen, then you can paddleboard," he promises.
Tours are often designed to encourage beginners. Orly's Dolphin Safari is a two-hour introductory glide great for bird and dolphin watching. Of course, you'll get a workout, too.
"Obviously, paddleboarding focuses on your core," says Orly. "The way you stand on the board, bend your knees, and flatten or straighten your back engages your core muscles."
But paddling is low-impact exercise, he says. "You'll still be able to move the next day."
For those seeking more of a fitness challenge, plenty of companies around Charleston offer paddleboard fitness classes.
Everything from yoga and Pilates to pushups and squats now are being done on floating paddleboards in group classes.
And for young mothers still running after elementary-age kids, there are opportunities for family paddling.
"We offer paddleboard rentals for all ages, doesn't matter if you're 8 or 80, we have one for every age, shape and size," Orly says.
A basic rental includes a board, life jacket and instruction before you go. For those taking off on their own, most rental facilities offer maps and pointers on the weather.
Wondering what you'll need? Luckily, not much.
"Wear something you'll feel comfortable paddleboarding in," Orly advises, be it a bathing suit, shorts and a T-shirt or leggings.
Surf's up
For moms looking to hang 10, the Lowcountry offers many ways for them to plug into surfing.
Mount Pleasant mom Helen Kulseth calls herself a fair-weather surfer.
"Meaning I don't like surfing in cold water with a wet suit," she jokes.
No harm in that, as a solid five months of hot weather allow her to enjoy catching some waves. And with an 8-month-old, she appreciates taking a break on the beach.
For interested moms, there are numerous options to get into the sport. Jenny Brown, owner of Shaka Surf School, has been surfing for 30 years and now does private lessons, including her Wemoons Weekends (one day $90; full weekend $160).
"It's a great time for beginner surfer ladies to come out and learn some technical things, safety, practice yoga, and strengthening," she says. Wemoons is limited to five women max, so there's ample one-on-one time and the opportunity to meet kindred spirits.
And though surfing can come off as a more advanced aquatic sport, Brown insists there's no reason to be scared. "That's the thing about life, you can't be scared," she says. "Surfing is a great sport for moms because it gives you some time to yourself in nature and some time to connect with yourself apart from your kids."
And even if you are scared, she adds, what better way to set an example for children to confront their fears than to hop on a board and ride?
Slip slide away
For an outdoor experience that's both one with nature and a solid workout, Kathie Livingston, Nature Adventures Outfitters owner and guide, says kayaking provides all that and more.
"Connecting with the water is a spiritual and meditating experience," says Livingston. "Not only does it help women keep their upper-body strength, but it allows them to unplug and enjoy nature."
Nature Adventures offers solo and tandem boats allowing parents to include children in the ride and their only requirement is that a child weigh at least 30 pounds.
Once out on the water, kayaking through the blackwater swamps or a saltwater tour of shallow bays, a mom can get a solid core and upper arm workout.
"My son, now 21, was raised in a kayak and now he has such an appreciation for nature," Livingston said. "Doing this sport is not only a great way for a mom to unwind, but a wonderful way to introduce your children to the natural world."
