Green Day's seventh studio album 'American Idiot' exploded on the scene in 2004 in a post 9/11 world filled with fear and media overload. Songs like 'Boulevard of Broken Dreams' and 'Wake Me Up When September Ends' spoke to a generation who were left feeling unsure about the war. Hoping to expand the story that was woven through 'American Idiot,' Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt and Tré Cool then wrote their next album '21st Century Breakdown.' So what's the next step for a chart-topping band like Green Day? How about opening a Broadway musical with a small cast that sings songs from both of their award-winning albums. Directed by Tony Award-winning director of 'Spring Awakening' Michael Mayer, 'American Idiot' brings some of the hottest young actors on Broadway together. Maybe you can't make it all the way to New York City? That's okay because we have the official Broadway cast recording for your listening pleasure right here, only on the Leak.

Sarah "Dewi" Caswell '14 exemplifies all the best qualities of a Hamilton student. She is a leader, an athlete, an actress, an academic and a writer. Caswell describes the "inclusiveness" of campus and the endless opportunities as some of the College's most defining attributes. When giving tours to prospective students, she tells them "You want to start a radio show? Go for it. You want to join Hogwarts at Hamilton? Absolutely. Want to start a grilling club? Why not?"
Caswell's Theater 101 Professor Mark Cryer advises students to take charge of their education and actively pursue what they want to learn, and Caswell has taken his advice to heart. In addition to working as an admission tour guide, she has written for The Duel Observer. As a performance studies interdisciplinary major, Caswell has participated in several main stage theatre productions. "Much about my time so far at Hamilton has not been what I expected or planned for myself," she says, "but it's those unexpected opportunities that have made my time here so great."
Caswell is also a member of the lacrosse team, where she especially enjoys the bonding experience among her teammates. This echoes her first impressions of Hamilton when she came to visit as a prospective student. "It was the first campus I'd ever come to where I got the sense that people really liked each other and were genuinely happy to bump into one another."
Although Caswell still has her senior year ahead of her, the most significant skill she has gained at Hamilton so far is "the ability to appreciate things from different perspectives." She has also learned to manage people effectively, communicate quickly and efficiently, and fine-tune her problem-solving skills.
"I would never have been able to afford Hamilton in general without [financial aid], but it even comes down to the little things, like voice lessons," she notes. "I could not be more thankful for the chances that generous donors have given me."

Snow-covered roadways prompted emergency officials to enact speed restrictions on area roadways Wednesday afternoon.
The speed limit was reduced to 45 mph on I-99 and sections of the Pennsylvania Turnpike as heavy snowfall continued across the region, officials said.
"All of Interstate 99 will be reduced to 45 mph beginning at 1 p.m. this afternoon," said Pam Kane, PennDOT District 9 spokeswoman. "It is snowing really hard in some areas. We really would recommend that if you don't have to travel, to please stay home and maybe go another day."
The Pennsylvania Turnpike issued a weather emergency advisory shortly before 12:30 p.m. Wednesday. The speed limit was reduced to 45 mph between the Ohio line and the Morgantown, W.Va., interchange.
The turnpike commission also issued several restrictions on tractor trailers and other towed trailers.
The speed restrictions are a proactive measure to ensure drivers' safety during the storm, Kane said.
Drivers should use caution on area roadways, not tailgate other vehicles and always wear their seat belts, Kane said. Motorists should also watch for plow crews and not attempt to pass plow trucks, she said.
Although PennDOT recommends not traveling during winter storms, motorists can check road conditions on state roads by calling 511 or visiting www.511PA.com.
PennDOT officials are also asking motorists to allow plenty of space when driving near plow trucks and never attempt to pass a truck while it is plowing or spreading winter materials.

The Zoning Board of Appeals this week will once again consider whether to grant nine variances to Iskalo Development for its Hyatt Place hotel project, which would occupy property behind the Lord Amherst Hotel on the northwest side of the Main Street and I-290 interchange.
The variances, which address everything from parking to building height, were initially considered by the board last month before a packed audience. Many were residents who expressed strong opposition to the project despite a detailed presentation by the developer regarding the need for the variances at the start of the public hearing.
The Zoning Board will also consider its first request from a homeowner to allow his family to raise chickens now that the Town Board has approved a special use permit making it legal for many homeowners to do so under certain circumstances.
The Zoning Board will meet at 7 p.m. Tuesday in the council chambers of the Amherst Municipal Building, 5583 Main St., Williamsville.
Also this week:
• The Town Board will hold its regular meeting at 7 p.m. Monday in the council chambers of the Amherst Municipal Building, 5583 Main St., Williamsville. The meeting will be preceded by a work session at 3 p.m.
• The Williamsville Village Board will meet at 7:30 p.m. Monday in Village Hall, 5565 Main St. The meeting will be preceded by a work session at 6 p.m.
• The Williamsville School Board will meet at 7 p.m. Tuesday in the District Office board room, 105 Casey Rd., East Amherst, for a budget work session and public forum. Superintendent Scott Martzloff will provide an update on the developing 2013-2014 budget. The board is soliciting public feedback prior to receiving a preliminary 2013-14 budget on March 5.
Amherst Police Chief John Askey also will be present at the meeting to answer questions related to the need for additional school security measures, which are being planned for as part of next year's budget.

By Duane Alan Hahn (Random Terrain) using hints, tips, and code snippets from AtariAge members such as batari, SeaGtGruff, RevEng, Robert M, Atarius Maximus, and jrok.
About this program:
I might turn this into a real game and possibly call it Seaweed Patrol if I don't think of a better name.
You are part of an advanced underwater civilization. Everyone has a job and yours is to patrol your section of the ocean in a semi-organic submarine. Highly aggressive seaweed surrounds you and it keeps trying to replicate faster than you can shoot. Use your missiles to blast any bits of seaweed that appear before they clog up your sector and spread to others, making it nearly impossible for anyone to travel. Don't let the seaweed strangle your civilization to extinction.
Your ship will be damaged if you bump into the seaweed, so be careful.
If I turn this into a game, there will be an enemy or two and bonus items to collect. I'll also have to figure out if it's a non-stop game or if there will be rounds.
Hit the reset switch if you want to restart the program.
This is the first draft. I still need to add variable descriptions and probably a few more comments too. I'll do that later today or tonight. Remember, this is not a complete game. There is no title screen, no bonus items, no enemy sprite, and the difficulty doesn't increase yet (it's pretty much on the easiest setting).
First draft
Here's the .bin file to use with an emulator or a real Atari using the Harmony cartridge:
ex_shoot_missile_2010y_08m_27d_0251t.bin 4KB 246 downloads
Here's the .bas file if you want to look at the code:
ex_shoot_missile_2010y_08m_27d_0251t.bas 30.13KB 320 downloads
There are probably ways to crunch the code down that I don't know about yet. If anybody who is good at that can point out where I might be able to save hundreds or thousands of bytes, I would appreciate it. I don't want to put this on the bB page until it is as perfect as we can get it.
I'll add future drafts to this first post. If nothing unexpected happens, the second draft will be posted later today or tonight.
Update: I just had an idea. Since you can shoot more than one piece of seaweed with one missile, it might be possible to have the first hit be worth 10 points, the second hit 20, the third hit 40, the fourth hit 80, and so on. The player would be more likely to wait until a nice row is lined up before shooting and it would be kind of satisfying.

GlaxoSmithKline will buy the remaining 80.02% of chemoproteomics firm Cellzome that it doesn't already own, for £61 million ($99 million) in cash. The acquisition will add proteomics mass spectrometry and screening capabilities to GSK's existing drug discovery engine, which the U.K.-based drugs giant says it believes will reduce the failure rate of development-stage drug candidates. In parallel with the acquisition, Cellzome's existing shareholders and GSK plan to create a spin-out company to take on any of Cellzome's assets and activities that its new parent doesn't want to progress.
Cellzome's platform technologies include its Episphere™ suite of quantitative proteomics technologies for the discovery of drug candidates against epigenetic targets. The firm has been leveraging these technologies both for the development of an in-house pipeline against inflammatory disorders and cancer, and through drug discovery partnerships including two early-stage research collaborations with GSK, and collaborations with Pfizer, Novartis, and BayerHealthcare.
Headquartered in the U.K., Cellzome also has facilities in Heidelberg, Germany. Last year Cellzome received three grants to fund its participation in collaborative research. The most recent £0.9 million grant, awarded by the U.K. government-backed Technology Strategy Board's regenerative medicine program "tools and technologies", was granted in December 2011 to support use of the Episphere technology as part of an industry-academia collaboration focused on identifying protein fingerprints predictive of potentially adverse changes to stem cells. The project is being headed by Cellzome. Also in 2011 Cellzome received separate grants from the EU's 7th Framework program to participate in two collaborative projects, Blueprint and Orchid. Blueprint is a major European effort to decipher the epigenetic basis of the hematopoietic system. Orchid is focused on the identification of new treatments for tuberculosis.

Why Buy From Us?
Best prices!
Best prices!
At Pearl Gallery, we're one of the UK's leading pearl importers with a huge selection of stock. This enables us to give one of the best ranges of pearls you'll see all at fantastic prices. Prices on the high street can easily be 50% higher, although be wary of other online retailers offering deep discounts that are usually too good to be true! Vastly inflated RRP's are everywhere online in the jewellery trade, items with RRP's of several times the selling price are common but the true value is going to be much closer to the price paid. Also bear in mind when comparing price with the American web sellers, some do have .co.uk addresses but still ship from America – make sure you factor in duty and 20% V.A.T. on the final price, not to mention the loss of the right to return.
- 12 Month Warranty
12 Month Warranty
All our products are guaranteed for 12 months from date of purchase under proper usage. Restringing of items and the stringing on necklaces are guaranteed for 3 months.
- Certificate of Authenticity

Customisation options
We can offer a huge variety of products and options. Our stock online is limited by the fact we can only offer so much choice on 1 website.

Drop us an email to firstname.lastname@example.com or telephone us on 0121 554 3211 with your enquiry and we'll be happy to help.
- No V.A.T. or Duty on top of the price!
No V.A.T. or Duty on top of the price!
We're a UK registered company with a bricks and mortar business. Be wary of some other websites that are foreign companies – there prices won't include duty at the applicable rate and V.A.T. on top, plus any administration charges normally charged by the importing company. Some firms are trading as .co.uk websites with UK registered addresses, but still shipping from overseas. Be wary of this, as not only can your costs spiral but your right to return goods can be lost.

Insulation for your spinning feet.
According to Craft's new 'sport-specific' collection of socks, its WARM Mid Socks were designed to correspond to the needs of a cyclist's feet while in motion. The socks were constructed with a blend of wool and polyamide, giving the socks a nice mid-to-heavy weight feel. With this composition, Craft built the socks to be worn specifically in cold weather conditions.
The socks have been channel-stitched throughout, and they've received ultra-thin uppers. As a result, warm air is allowed to circulate in order cool down your skin temperature. The polyamide material was applied to the socks using Craft's 'bodymapping' technology as a means to target specific pressure points on the foot with varying thicknesses of fabric. Across the arch of the foot, a lightweight mesh was applied in order to increase ventilation. Additionally, arched ribs line the sides of the socks, making sure that they don't shift while inside of your cycling shoes.
Wool was applied in the heel, and at a majority of the sole, in order to provide the ultimate in warmth and insulation. This is what distinguishes the 'warm' line from the 'active' line, as the active collection omits wool in the sole. Craft finished off its WARM Mid socks with mid-length Lycra cuffs for added leg coverage and muscle support.
The Craft WARM Mid Socks are available in five sizes from X-Small to X-Large and in the color Black/bright red.

Dear Kay, It's publication day for Knitting Yarns: Writers on Knitting! I have an essay in there, "What Are You Making?" It feels like six years ago that I sent that essay in.

Nov. 6, 1927 – Jan. 1, 2013
Martin J. Pine, Ph.D., of Amherst, a Roswell Park Cancer Institute research scientist, died Jan. 1 in the Health Center at Canterbury Woods, Amherst, after a short illness. He was 85.
Born in Forest Hills, Queens, he was a graduate of Cornell University and did graduate work at the University of Wisconsin and Indiana University, earning a doctorate in bacteriology, now microbiology.
A postdoctoral fellowship took him to Yale University for two years, where he met his wife, Ellen, who had a similar fellowship. When their fellowships ended in 1954, they both took positions at Roswell Park, and he continued his research on the protein turnover of microorganisms. In 1970, Dr. Pine wrote a seminal paper on the topic, which is considered a milestone today.
His research led to a sabbatical invitation in 1974 to Stanford University, where he brought cell cultures that proved significant in understanding how cancer makes genomes in stable cells. He retired in 1990.
Dr. Pine was an avid gardener and a longtime member of the Buffalo Bonsai Society and the Buffalo & Erie County Botanical Gardens. In the early 1990s, he single-handedly converted a small area in the Botanical Gardens into a bonsai corner.
He also was an antiques enthusiast, collecting and restoring antique furniture and photographs. His specialty was Civil War soldiers. He also created several tables for the Buffalo YMCA, where he was a member.
He enjoyed classical music, especially opera. He was a member of Opera Buffs of Western New York. He also led an opera class at Canterbury Woods.
He and his wife traveled extensively to Europe, Central America and Israel.
In addition to his wife, he is survived by three sons, Nathanael, Jay and Aaron; and a brother, Bernard Pinsky.
A memorial service was held at Canterbury Woods.

"Marty is an amazing actor, and that's the least of his talents," Catherine O'Hara, an old friend and comedy colleague of Short's, told ET Canada. "He's such a beautiful, beautiful person. I love him so much, and I love his family, and I'm sorry he can't be here tonight."
She added: "I think you all know how funny he is. He's just such a wise old soul, and in any situation in life, he's the model of how to be. Even now."
Glenn Close, the star of the FX drama Damages, for which Short was nominated in the supporting-actor category, remarked on the Saturday Night Live alum's underrated skill as a serious actor.
"He can pull off very, very complex emotions, and he was magnificent [on Damages]," she said. "I loved watching him work. And the fact that he's known as this genius comic made it even better."
Close said she didn't know Short's wife Nancy, but knew they shared a special bond. "Talking to Marty, which we did a lot on the set, they had an extraordinary marriage," Close said. "I think 30 years and [it was] a great partnership and friendship on top of everything else."
Short, 60, won an Emmy in the early 1980s for his sketch-comedy writing for SCTV. On Sunday, he was beaten out by Breaking Bad's Aaron Paul for the drama supporting-actor award.

BEAVER FALLS, Pa. - If you look at the key numbers that usually lead teams to lose, Ohio should have had no chance late in the game against Pennsylvania in Friday's 34th annual Penn-Ohio Stateline Classic at Geneva College.
The Buckeyes had five turnovers and committed 10 penalties for 115 yards, but just had to stop Pennsylvania on a fourth-and-1 from the Pennsylvania 20 with 1:50 to go to possibly steal a win.
Instead, Pennsylvania quarterback Caleb Jakiel drew the Ohio line offsides and that was all she wrote in a 25-22 win for the Keystoners.
Blackhawk's Alex Caratelli stole the show for the Keystoners as he hauled in six passes for 126 yards and three first half touchdowns to claim MVP honors. Caratelli, who will play at Robert Morris in the fall, is Beaver County's all-time leading single-season pass catcher with 71 last season.
"Ohio's defensive backs made adjustments in the second half," Caratelli said. "I had a harder time getting open. They were definitely good defenders."
Ohio's MVP honors went to Crestview's Nick Blower, who rushed 14 times for 77 yards and a 1-yard touchdown in the second quarter. He also caught four passes for 31 yards.
Fact Box
P-Alex Caratelli 53 pass from Caleb Jakiel (John Rebich kick)
P-Caratelli 18 pass from Forest Petcovic(kick failed)
O-Nick Blower 1 run (Doug Maslowski kick)
P-Colton McKay 50 interception return (pass failed)
P-Caratelli 10 pass from Jakiel (kick failed)
O-Britton Steiginga 70 fumble recovery (Blower run)
O-Robby Seman 71 pass from Luke Griffith (Maslowski kick)

RUSHING-Ohio, Nick Blower (Crestview) 14-77, Zak Leko (Lisbon) 5-13; Penn, Kellen Mackey (New Brighton) 12-42, Rob Bell (Beaver Falls) 17-44.
PASSING-Ohio, Luke Griffith (Southern) 8-18-149-2; Penn, Caleb Jakiel 5-11-106-0 (Moon), Forest Petcovic(Freedom) 1-1-18-0, Devon Kelosky (Riverside) 1-1-7-0.
RECEIVING-Ohio, Blower 4-31, Robby Seman (South Range) 3-106, Penn, Alex Caratelli (Blackhawk) 6-126.
FUMBLE RECOVERIES-Ohio, Britton Steiginga (Columbiana); Penn, Zach Medved (West Allegheny), Jordan Diven (West Allegheny) 2-2.
INTERCEPTIONS- Penn, Colton McKay (Moon), Anthony Keriotis (Beaver).
"It's an honor to get the MVP," Crestview's all-time leading rusher said. "I was so excited. It was a great experience. It just came down to a couple of bad plays, but hey that's life."
Pennsylvania, who leads the series 24-10, put the Buckeyes in the hole early with two Caratelli touchdown receptions in the first quarter. The second one was set up by Luke Griffith's first of two interceptions. The Southern Local graduate, who played the entire game under center, struggled under intense defensive pressure and completed eight of 18 passes for 149 yards. He was sacked four times and lost a fumble.
Ohio had a chance to go into the half down 19-7, but Steubenville's Tajuan Lawson fumbled a punt return at the Ohio 10 leading to Caratelli's third touchdown and a 25-7 Keystoner advantage at the break.
Columbiana's Britton Steiginga ignited the Buckeyes in the second half as he stripped Beau Ewing and raced 70 yards to make it 25-15 with 1:40 left in the third.
Pennsylvania's offense sputtered the rest of the way and the Buckeyes found themselves in great position after South Range's Robby Seman caught a 71-yard touchdown from Griffith with 3:33 left in the game.
Seman had three catches for 106 yards.
"Luke asked me if I wanted the ball before the play and I told him absolutely," Seman said.
That drive almost stalled out completely earlier as the Buckeyes, coached by Southern's Mike Skrinjar, were called for a sideline infraction. Seman's catch more than saved it.
"The refs weren't on our side tonight," Seman said.
Everything was in place for the Buckeyes to sting the home side in the end, but the offside penalty brought it to a crashing halt.
"I really thought they wouldn't fall for it," Caratelli said. "Their coach was out there warning them. I personally didn't think it would work, but (quarterback Caleb Jakiel) did a great job."
-West Branch's Zach Ruggles was presented with Ohio's Enlightened Warrior Award at halftime. Caratelli, the all-time Beaver County single season receptions leader with 71, was the Enlightened Warrior Award winner for Pennsylvania.
-Four $500 Quad County Coaches Association scholarships were awarded at halftime. Receiving scholarships were Brandon Dattilio (Leetonia), Zak Leko (Lisbon), Cole Krumpak (South Range) and Joe Johnson (Springfield).
-Even though scattered thunderstorms were around the region, the weather held out for a relatively clear night at Geneva College. Last year's game at Springfield Local High School was delayed by 90 minutes because of storms.
-Crestview's Kaleb Baker led Ohio with 10 tackles.
-Crestview's Dylann Douglass and Steubneville's Tajuan Lawson had the defensive play of the game when they stopped Beaver Falls' Rob Bell on a fourth and 1 at the Ohio 1 with 10:10 to go in the fourth quarter.

Where Spain Is Worse Than Greece
By most measures, Greece's economy is in worse shape than Spain's. Greece has been largely shut off from financial markets for more than two years; yields on its bonds are still sky high. Gross domestic product has fallen nearly 20% over the previous three years. Spain can still borrow from private investors, and its GDP has fallen around 5% during the crisis.
But if you take forecasts from the European Commission seriously, Greece enjoys one formidable advantage over Spain: Its economy is running well below capacity, while the Spanish economy, despite an unemployment rate around 25%, is operating relatively close to full steam.
Why is that an advantage? According to the commission, it means that the Greek unemployment rate should fall sharply if the economy starts to recover again, without causing inflation. Spain faces a much more difficult situation. If the structure of its labor market doesn't change, the commission's analysis suggests that a nascent economic recovery in Spain could be hampered by labor shortages that would spark wage inflation.
Seems like a strange thing to believe for a country with 25% of its workforce sitting idle. How can this be?
The reason is the commission's view of the Spanish labor market. During the previous decade, the Spanish unemployment rate dropped sharply as millions of Spaniards found work in the booming Spanish real estate sector.
But the bubble has burst, probably for good. This means, according to the commission's analysis, that millions of Spaniards need to be retrained to do non-real-estate-bubble-related jobs. In the meantime, their labor won't be available to do the new jobs that will drive Spanish growth in the future.
Greece faces similar problems, but they are less serious, according to the commission's analysis. Yes, the "government-borrows-money-and funds-consumption" model of growth won't be available to Greece anymore. But it didn't endure the same private-sector credit bubble that hit Spain during the previous decade.
The differences between Greece and Spain can be seen in several economic metrics published by the commission. There is the output gap, or the difference between actual GDP and potential GDP (as a percentage of potential GDP). The figure is a whopping 13% for Greece but just 4.6% for Spain.
Then take a look at the commission's estimates of the so-called non-accelerating wage rate of unemployment (NAWRU) in Greece and Spain. This is the unemployment rate below which the commission believes the inflation rate starts to rise. It's also known as the "natural rate" of unemployment. The natural unemployment rate for Greece is around 14.8%; it is 21.5% for Spain. This despite unemployment rates around 25% in both countries.
These numbers speak to the depth of the structural transformation that the commission believes Spain must endure before it can return to sustainable, non-inflationary growth.
Of course, neither the "natural" unemployment rate nor the output gap are directly observable figures. They are estimates made by economists to help central bankers and finance ministry officials figure out whether economies are close to becoming inflationary. So maybe the commission's estimates are incorrect.
In fact, there is considerable disagreement over the commission's view of the U.S. economy: It sees the natural U.S. unemployment rate at 7.8%. Not even the most hawkish members of the Federal Reserve's Board of Governors believe the natural rate is much over 6%.
The problem is that European policymakers are now relying on these estimates more than ever before to draft national budgets. They are giving more weight to the "structural balance" – that's the actual government balance accounting for the size of the output gap, the "natural unemployment rate" and the general strength of the economy.
Spain's structural budget deficit is somewhat smaller than its actual deficit (6.3% of GDP vs. 8%), because of the country's weak economy. But most of the deficit is still "structural," according to the commission, a disturbing thought in a country where 25% of the workforce is unemployed.
And because the euro zone's new "Fiscal Pact" requires countries to bring their structural deficits under 0.5% of GDP, Spain still has a lot of government austerity to endure before the cutting is done.

Florida developer Richard Zahn pleaded guilty in federal court this morning to conspiring to sell property he owns to South Carolina State University in exchange for kickbacks to school officials.
A judge will sentence Zahn at a later date.
Federal prosecutors this week formally named Zahn in court papers tying him to the corruption case. They mentioned Zahn's alleged involvement during a hearing last month, but he had been referred to in court documents only as "Person A."
This week, prosecutors filed paperwork in U.S. District Court listing a pending charge of conspiracy to defraud the U.S. government against Zahn. The 44-year-old developer pleaded guilty to that charge during an 11 a.m. hearing in Charleston.
The paperwork is listed as "information," similar to how the case of former S.C. State Police Chief Michael Bartley was handled when he pleaded guilty in January to a conspiracy count in the alleged scheme.
Zahn is accused of conspiring on the land deal with Bartley and the university's former board chairman, Jonathan Pinson. The two officials allegedly pitched the sale to other school officials in return for bribes, according to court documents.
Zahn's attorney, Andy Savage, said his client had no idea of the "culture of corruption" that existed at SC. State University when he came to the state to do business.
Zahn soon learned that corruption was, "the cost of doing business" at S.C. State, Savage said.
He described Zahn as an honest businessman who succumbed to the pressure. Zahn regrets doing so and has been working with federal authorities for months to help them correct what happened, Savage said.
Zahn faces a maximum sentence of five years in prison for the charge to which he pleaded guilty. but prosecutors indicated he could get about three years probation instead if he continues to cooperate with authorities and satisfies other conditions.
The full extent of corruption at S.C. State will become clearer as the case progresses, Savage said. The corruption was pervasive and it "goes way beyond the borders of that campus," the attorney said.
Prosecutors have said Zahn was looking to unload a 121-acre spread known as Sportsman's Retreat that he owns along Wild Hearts Road in the Orangeburg County town of Cameron. It has been on the market for $3.2 million, and the site was pitched to school officials as a possible site for a conference center and a university retreat, authorities said.
In return for his help, Pinson was to get a $110,000 Porsche Cayenne, while Bartley stood to receive a new all-terrain vehicle and $30,000 in cash, authorities said.
Pinson has pleaded not guilty to all counts of the indictment.
Federal law enforcement officials have said more indictments were expected in the public corruption case involving South Carolina State University. But Beth Drake, spokeswoman for U.S. Attorney Bill Nettles, said this week she couldn't answer questions on whether or when more people would be indicted, because she can't discuss pending investigations.
Zahn is a serious player in the Florida construction industry. His Longwood, Fla.-based ZMG Construction has been involved in a host of multimillion-dollar projects from Texas to Pennsylvania, including a $1 billion redevelopment in Orlando called Creative Village and a $458 million urban renewal effort in Tampa.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Mark Moore has described Zahn as a friend of Bartley. Zahn served as a reserve officer at the Orangeburg County Sheriff's Office in 2006, when Bartley worked there as a deputy, state records show. Bartley was one of Zahn's training instructors at the Sheriff's Office, the records state.
Zahn and Pinson also had a relationship, Moore has said. He said the two men were involved in unspecified business ventures in Columbia and Atlanta that also included Greer businessman Eric Robinson, who has been indicted with Pinson in another alleged kickback scheme.
Robinson pleaded not guilty to all counts of the indictment.

The Stetson Hatters missed out on an early scoring chance on Saturday against Kennesaw State, leaving a pair of runners on base in the first inning.
Kennesaw State's Kevin Kyle (5-2) never gave Stetson another chance, blanking the Hatters on just four hits in a 4-0 Owls victory. Besides the four singles the Hatters produced in the game, all of which were through, or just over the infield, Stetson hit one ball out of the infield all day.
Kennesaw State improved to 17-11 overall with the win, 6-3 in Atlantic Sun Conference play. The Hatters fall to 13-15 overall and 2-4 in league play.
Kyle struck out just three and needed only 104 pitches to get the win. He got 18 ground ball outs in the game and faced just two batters over the minimum.
"You are an idiot if you don't pitch to contact on that team," Stetson coach Pete Dunn said. "That is the best defensive infield that I can remember seeing in a long time. I am not just talking about the A-Sun, I mean anywhere. Those guys really make a lot of plays."
The Hatters had their one and only scoring chance in the first with runners on the corners and one out. Kyle put the scoring chance down by getting James Rasmussen to foul out to third base and Carlos Garmendia on a ground ball to short. It was one of 11 assists on the day for KSU shortstop Kal Simmons.
"We had an opportunity to score one in the first, to score first," Dunn said. "That is always a lift, even though it doesn't necessarily mean anything. We got first and third with one out and couldn't make quality contact, and that is disappointing.
"Then we went out and gave up those three unearned runs. You aren't supposed to make those kind of errors on routine plays at this point in the season."
It was two errors in the second inning that cost both the Hatters and freshman starting pitcher Kevin Fagan (2-1). The trouble started when first baseman Patrick Mazeika dropped a good throw from short on a grounder by Max Pentecost. Consecutive singles by Jacob Bruce and Ryan Raper plated that run.
After a pop out to the catcher, the Owls tried to squeeze home a run, but Fagan got the ball to Garrett Russini in plenty of time to cut down the runner. Simmons followed with an RBI single to plate Raper and then another run scored on a Bo Way single to center that was overrun by Mike Fernland.
"I realize that we didn't score, but we are not capable of chasing runs at this point," Dunn said. "If we play good defense today, then we are in a one-run game the whole way and you do things a lot differently in a one-run game than in a three-run game."
After stranding the two runners on base in the first inning, Kyle faced the minimum over the next eight frames. Even though he did allow two hits – one in the fifth to Russini and another in the eighth to Tanner Blackman – he erased both runners by getting double-plays.
"He was down in the zone all day and stayed away from the right-handed hitters," Dunn said of Kyle. "We didn't hit the ball to the right side, and that is what you have to do against a left-handed pitcher like that. You have to take a left-handed approach and hit it the other way. Instead, we kept rolling over and hitting weak grounders to the shortstop. We just didn't take a good approach."
The lack of offensive production, and error-filled second inning, spoiled an otherwise strong pitching performance from Fagan and senior Cameron Griffin. The duo scattered eight hits and allowed just one earned run, which scored on a two-out double by Almonte in the eighth inning.
"Those guys did everything you could expect," Dunn said of his pitchers. "They gave up one earned run. You don't always win those games, but you would certainly be closer than in a 4-0 shutout."
The Hatters will now take their show on the road for the better part of the next month. After playing 26 of their first 28 games at home, the Hatters will play 13 of their next 17 games away from Melching Field.
"It is a good question," Dunn said of playing on the road. "How do these youngsters react to playing on the road and having a chance in the routine they have had all year? We've showed signs of being a good team, but we just haven't bee consistent."
The April road games will commence on Tuesday when the Hatters travel to Tampa for a 7 p.m. game at the University of South Florida. Stetson will play its first road conference series of the year next weekend at Jacksonville.

As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
Expanding Use of NGS Has Largely...
Quadruple Helices Appear To Have Role...
Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
Asuragen is teaming up with a number of academic research centers to develop an miRNA-based test that will help diagnose pancreatic cancer from fine-needle aspirate (FNA) biopsies. The institutes involved in this arrangement are The University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Brigham and Women's Hospital, H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center, Dartmouth's Hitchcock Medical Center, and the University of Sherbrooke.
The collaborating sites will provide clinical expertise and samples so that Asuragen can evalaute the clinical utility of its miRNA test to distinguish pancreatic adenocardinoma from chronic pancreatitis and other noncancerous disorders.
Asuragen's miRNA test currently uses formalin-fixed biopsy or resection specimens to help resolve cases for which standard cytopathology has been inconclusive. The company claims if the test can be validated for FNA biopsies, patient samples could be obtained less invasively, and it may negate the need for surgery.
Asuragen offers a range of capabilities for molecular diagnostics and services, from identifying and validating novel mRNA and miRNA biomarkers to developing and manufacturing new assays under specific regulatory requirements. The company emerged from what was left of RNA company Ambion in 2005/2006. Ambion sold off its research products division to Applied Biosystems Group and formed Asuragen with about 100 employees from its diagnostics and molecular biology services divisions.
Asuragen established its CLIA lab in Austin in 2007/2008 and launched the first miRNA-based diagnostic test for distinguishing pancreatic cancer from chronic pancreatitis. In December 2007, the decision was made to move the miRNA therapeutics activities into a new entity call Mirna Therapeutics. Mirna was seeded with $3M from Asuragen and is actively developing oncology candidates.
In November 2009, Asuragen signed an exclusive agreement with Life Technologies for worldwide distribution of an in vitro diagnostic test to aid in the monitoring and treatment of patients with chronic myeloid leukemia. As part of the agreement, Asuragen will pursue CE marked-IVD registration in Europe and regulatory clearance in the U.S. The diagnostic test will then be distributed by Life Technologies and will run exclusively on the Applied Biosystems 7500 Fast Dx real-time PCR instrument.
In October 2009, Asuragen won over $3.8 million in new grant funding from the SBIR, STTR, and American Recovery and Reinvestment Act initiatives of the NIH. The grants will be used to fund research and product development in the fields of oncology and genetic disease.

LISBON - A 4-year-old Lisbon boy was injured Wednesday when he was struck by a car while trick-or-treating.
Layne Jones was admitted into St. Elizabeth's Hospital in Youngstown. The extent of his injuries was not disclosed, according to his grandfather, J.D. Creer. Creer is managing editor of the Salem News, a sister publication of the Morning Journal.
The boy was struck just before 5:30 p.m. as he and his aunt, Kristan Jones, were crossing East Lincoln Way.

Kristan Jones cradles her nephew, 4-year-old Layne Jones, after he was hit by a car while trick-or-treating. With them is Lisbon patrolman Mike Abraham.
According to Lisbon patrolman Mike Abraham, eastbound traffic was stopped for a red light at the intersection of Lincoln Way and Routes 30/45, near Carter Lumber.
The boy darted through the stopped cars and into the open westbound lane with his aunt chasing behind. Both were struck by a westbound Ford Tempo driven by Amy Perdue that had just gone through the light. The boy was tossed about five feet, according to witnesses.
The accident occurred at the height of trick-or-treating, and a large group of concerned parents quickly converged on the scene. Abraham also was on the scene in a minute as was an off-duty firefighter/medic, Justin Miller.
Layne Jones was conscious when a Morning Journal photographer reached the scene a few minutes after the accident. A bit of blood coming out of his ear, the boy was crying as he was comforted by his aunt. His aunt was treated at the Salem Community Hospital
KLG Ambulance also responded and transported the boy, the son of Kristin Grace and Kevin Jones of Lisbon, to St. Elizabeth's.
Abraham said Perdue, 26, of Twin Oaks, Lisbon, will not be cited.

Wednesday, February 20, 2013
Those who visit the statehouse or watch on television consistently watch short or inconsequential meetings take place on the floor of the House. And it is true that there is not much need for the entire House of Representatives to meet in full session every day because the actual time-consuming work is taking place in committee.
The primary reason for meeting in the chamber is that the House must be in session for the committees to meet. Furthermore, legislation that is introduced must be "read" for the first time across the desk where it is then referred to committee. The Speaker receives each bill and reads its title and subject. He then refers it to the appropriate committee where the initial debate takes place.
The House's major standing committees each deal with different subject matter. They are Ways and Means (budget and fiscal matters); Labor Commerce and Industry; Agriculture; Natural Resources and Environmental Affairs; Education and Public Works; Judiciary; and Medical, Military Public and Municipal Affairs.
The House meets in full session for bills to be introduced. The bills are then read across the desk and assigned to the appropriate committee. The committees then assign them to subcommittees in which public hearings and testimony are conducted and received. Approved legislation is then returned to full committee where it can either be approved or disapproved. Bills that are approved are then returned to the floor where they are presented to the full House of Representatives.
Unless there are special circumstances this process takes a few weeks - and that is for legislation that is at the front of the queue. Considering that thousands of bills are introduced each session the process can often be tremendously slow.
I serve on the Ways and Means Committee. Our first priority is to write the next year's state budget. Current state appropriations are somewhere around the $7 billion figure. Add in federal dollars and it is many times that amount. Before we can begin to discuss tax issues, funding formulas, regulations, etc, Ways and Means must write the budget so it can be sent to the Senate for consideration. The vast majority of our first two months in session take place in committee hearing rooms instead of on the floor.
The unfortunate part of this process is that all committees do not have a similar workload. Newer legislators spend a good bit of time trying to figure out the system. The result is that about half the General Assembly is swamped while the other half spends a good bit of time roaming the halls.
That is why two bills that are being discussed are so important. One would shorten the legislative session and the other would allow committees to meet without the full House being present. I think that both of these initiatives would save taxpayer dollars and they would also increase efficiency and create an impetus for addressing legislation in a timely manner.
Of note is the fact that over the past decade the S.C. House of Representatives has repeatedly passed legislation to shorten the session. Unfortunately, the biggest obstacle to this significant reform is the South Carolina Senate. Because of its arcane rules one Senator can prevent a bill from being debated, and this occurs each and every year. Perhaps this will be the year that Senators address this unwieldy situation and help streamline our legislative process? One can only hope.
Over the next few weeks, as committees vote out legislation, there will be an increasing number of bills debated on the floor by the full House. For most Representatives, it will be the first time they have heard the pros and cons of each bill - especially those that were amended in committee.
Ways and Means is debating the state budget in full committee this week and it will be presented to the full House beginning March 11. I am chairman of the Legislative, Executive and Local Government committee - which deals with the majority of state and executive agencies and the budget provisos. Our emphasis this year has been "truth in budgeting".
Too many agencies have been growing exponentially because of the existence of a little known category called "Other funds." "Other funds" are fees and fines that are collected and authorized to be spent by the agency.
This authorization builds upon itself in each subsequent budget and many agencies have been stockpiling these funds to hire employees or expend them outside of public view. This year my committee has spent an exhaustive amount of time removing unnecessary authorization and transferring necessary spending to the "recurring" lines of the budget. This will allow future budget writers and state taxpayers to know the "real" cost for an agency's operations.

South Carolina defensive end Jadeveon Clowney will spend a lot of time in the spotlight next week.
When: 9 p.m. Wednesday
Where: Nokia Theater, Los Angeles
To vote for Clowney: http://espn.go.com/espys/2013/
Clowney, a rising junior and the overwhelming favorite to be the top pick in the 2014 NFL draft, is one of three players who will represent the Gamecocks at the SEC Media Days on Tuesday in Hoover, Ala.
Then, according to USC officials, Clowney plans to journey to Los Angeles, where he will attend the 2013 ESPY Awards Show at the Nokia Theater. The show will be broadcast at 9 p.m. Wednesday by ESPN, and hosted by "Mad Men" star Jon Hamm.
Clowney could pick up an ESPY of his own, for Best Play of 2013.
The play in question is Clowney's stunning hit on Michigan running back Vincent Smith in the Jan. 1 Outback Bowl.
Clowney's hit is one of eight plays still in the running for the award, which is based on fan voting here.
Clowney's hit is currently up against a "double save" by Peru goalkeeper Angelo Campos in a soccer match against Uruguay.
The other nominated plays include a 153-foot putt by Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps; a 4th-and-29 run by Ravens running back Ray Rice; an alley-oop dunk by DeAndre Jordan of the Clippers; a goal by Swedish soccer player Zlatan Ibrahimovic; Ray Allen's 3-pointer to save the Heat in the NBA Finals; and a 55-foot buzzer-beater by high school basketball playr Khalil Edney.

A small group of loved ones gathered for a private ceremony in memory of American Idol finalist Michael Johns at Los Angeles's Forest Lawn Memorial Park on Friday
Johns's family began traveling from his native Australia to be with his wife, interior designer Stacey Vuduris, shortly after they learned of the singer's sudden death from a blood clot on Aug. 1.
Johns is expected to be cremated and taken back to Australia.
Last week, friends and colleagues paid their respects to the singer, 35, as soon as the sad news spread.
