QBD In Lyophilization Process Development and Scale-Up
8:30 Chairperson's Remarks
Jeffrey Breit, Ph.D., Director, Pharmaceutical, Bend Research
QbD in Freeze Drying Process Development: Construction of the Primary Drying Design Space
Steven L. Nail, Ph.D., Senior Baxter Research Scientist, Pharmaceutical Research & Development, Baxter Healthcare Corp.
Knowledge space, design space, and control space are defined, with emphasis on construction of the design space as a plot of sublimation rate vs. chamber pressure, with isotherms for a series of shelf temperatures and a series of product temperatures. This approach includes edges of failure, which are determined by 1) the upper product temperature limit during primary drying, and 2) equipment capability. Advantages and limitations of this approach, as well as applied research needs to further develop this design space approach, are discussed.
9:05 The Effect of Natural Variation on Freeze-Drying Design Space: Determining the Variation in Heat Transfer and Ice Nucleation Temperature on the Distribution of Product Temperatures and Drying Times within a Batch
Robin Bogner, Ph.D., Associate Professor, School of Pharmacy, University of Connecticut
Freeze-dried products have different temperature histories from vial to vial due to variation in heat transfer to the vials. The natural distribution of ice nucleation temperatures causes additional variation in temperature histories of product within a single freeze-dried batch. The variation can be used to predict the % of product exceeding a critical temperature with sensitivity to six sigma. Design space for various levels of defects can be constructed.
9:35 Selected Oral Poster Presentation: Evaluation of Drying Stabilization on Attenuated Enveloped Viral Vaccine Candidate
Lillian Li, Ph.D., Scientist, Formulation and Stability Platform, Bio-Process R&D, Sanofi Pasteur Canada
Drying technologies are commonly used to stabilize vaccine antigens or bio-pharmaceutical active ingredients in a solid state by removing water from aqueous formulation, where the degradative reactions are caused. Three drying technologies - conventional freeze dry (FD), spray freeze dry (SFD) and conventional spray dry (SD) are compared in our study using attenuated enveloped viral vaccine candidate as a model. Product physico-chemical characterization, microstructure, viral morphology, process yield and accelerated stability are compared.

Reconstitution Of Lyophilized Proteins: Case Studies
10:50 Insights into the Reconstitution Behavior of Highly Concentrated Lyophilized Proteins
Bakul Bhatnagar, Ph.D., Principal Scientist, Formulation & Process Development, Pfizer, Inc.
While a short reconstitution time is a key desirable attribute of a lyophilized product, long reconstitution times are observed for highly concentrated lyophilized proteins. Empirical approaches involving alteration of formulation variables, processing variables, reconstitution diluent, and reconstitution method(s) have been employed to shorten reconstitution times in the lyophilization literature. Data from systematic studies designed to investigate the effect of formulation and processing variables on wetting and hydration during reconstitution will be presented.
11:20 Mitigating the Challenge of Slow Reconstitution of High Concentration Protein Formulations
Wenjin Cao, Ph.D., Senior Scientist, Amgen, Inc.
Long reconstitution times are typically experienced with a lyophilized high concentration protein drug product, which can limit practical usage and commercial marketability of the product. This talk discusses a systematic approach on achieving reasonable reconstitution times of a high concentration lyophilized protein drug product. Many strategies have been shown to provide nominal improvement in reconstitution times, such as adding wetting agents in the diluents, incorporating high annealing steps in the lyophilization cycle and reconstituting under vacuum. The reconstitution strategy of reduced diluent volume, however, has enabled significant decrease in reconstitution time (4-7 fold) of lyophilized high protein concentration formulations.

"Coincidences are spiritual puns." – G.K. Chesterton
It doesn't quite rank up there with the parting of the Red Sea or turning water into wine, but the passing statistics compiled by Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow, a devout Christian, in an overtime playoff victory Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers suggest the possibility of divine intervention.
At the very least, the appearance of the numbers 3-1-6 suggests a meaningful coincidence that seems to go beyond the normal parameters of "just" a coincidence, especially for Christian believers. Jungian psychologists might consider it an example of synchronicity, but whatever name it goes by, it's been noticed.
By accumulating 316 passing yards on a 10-for- 21 effort at Sports Authority Field at Mile High Stadium, Tebow drew attention to the sequence 3-1-6, familiar to Christians and TV sports fans alike (marketing studies indicate some overlap) as part of the oft-cited Bible verse John 3:16. Tebow wore "John 3:16" as eye black while leading the Florida Gators to the 2009 BCS title with a 24-14 win over Oklahoma, but the NFL does not allow messages in eye black.
Crowd shots at various televised sporting events through the years have shown countless fans displaying "John 3:16" signs. Considered by some Christians to be one of the most important verses in the New Testament, it reads: "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."
Tebow, Broncos live another day
With their record standing at 9-8 after Sunday's thrilling win, the Broncos certainly have lived to play another day, at least for now.
Thanks to a single play from scrimmage in OT – Tebow's 80-yard touchdown pass to Demaryius Thomas – the Broncos are moving on to play the New England Patriots at 8 p.m. Eastern Standard Time Saturday in Massachusetts. The game will be televised on CBS. The Pittsburgh Steelers, led by bad boy quarterback and accused rapist Ben Roethlisberger, saw their season come to a screeching halt with the sudden death loss.
Interestingly, Tebow's statistics did not feature not the only "3-1-6" sequence that made headlines. John Ourand of the Sports Business Journal Tweeted that the final quarter-hour rating (which included the winning TD pass) for the Pittsburgh-Denver game was a 31.6.
Tebow, the son of missionaries, has received a lot of media attention for what has been termed "Tebowing," getting down on one knee to pray after a successful play. He has been on the receiving end of comedic insults and parodies from the likes of Bill Maher and Saturday Night Live.
Baltimore Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs not only went after Tebow, he took a swipe at God as well. He said the Ravens do not need God on the sidelines. After Sunday's game-winning pass, Tebow, true to form, got down on one knee and bowed his head to give thanks for the victory. If the Broncos beat the Pats and the Ravens stop the Houston Texans, Suggs and Tebow would clash in the AFC Championship Game.
An overlooked clue: Demaryius Thomas
Inspired by the possibility of a kind of interdimensional wink from the divine, a "spiritual pun," to cite Chesterton, The Punditty Project undertook a scholarly deconstruction of the name Demaryius Thomas, Tebow's receiver on the winning play.
If we set aside the "m-a-r-y" from Demaryius, the remaining letters spell "Deius." Remove the "i" – interpreted by Pundittian theologians as representative of the Freudian concept of ego – and we have the word "Deus," Latin for God. The surname "Thomas" refers to both the disciple who doubted the resurrection of Jesus (John 20:24-29) and the gnostic "Gospel of Thomas," recovered at Nag Hammadi in 1945. Mary, of course, is the mother of Jesus.
Might this mean that only by dissolving the ego (the "i") and "receiving" Jesus the Christ (represented by the passing of the football, the catch, and Tebow's relationship to John 3:16) can we give birth (Mary as representative of the Divine Feminine) to our own individualized yet universal connection to Deus, moving beyond the externalized doubt (Thomas the disciple, Tebow's detractors) to a kind of enchanted self-knowingness (gnosis) of the divine within (the "kingdom of heaven" referred to in Luke 17:21 ) and win our battle "over time," i.e., attain eternal life? That's certainly one valid interpretation, but far from the only one. The theological implications of the Broncos' victory and Tebow's stats will surely one day be the stuff of dissertations. Stay tuned.
In addition to the rather obvious clues contained in Thomas' name, some of Tebow's other receivers have meaningful monikers as well. Consider the following: tight end Dante Rosario (evoking both the author of "The Inferno" and the Roman Catholic practice of praying the rosary); tight end Daniel Fells (Daniel "fell" in the lion's den, only to emerge victorious); wide receiver Matthew Willis (Matthew wrote one of the Gospels, and God's "will is" always triumphant); wide receiver Eddie Royal (Henry VIII forced the separation of the Church of England and the Vatican); and wide receiver Eddie Decker ("Deck the halls with boughs of holly, fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la" is part of a famous Christmas carol; Christmas celebrates the birth of Jesus).
What all of this means for Saturday night's game at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass., remains to be seen, but it will be interesting to see if Bill Maher's ratings for "Real Time" drop (or rise) 6.66 percent from the season average when the year's first episode airs Friday the 13th on HBO.

After seeing his Bulldogs fall to 4-2 with a 41-26 loss to Missouri, Georgia coach Mark Richt said there's a "realistic" chance that running back Todd Gurley and safety Tray Matthews will be ready to return for next week's game against Vanderbilt, according to 247Sports' (and former AL.com sports writer) Gentry Estes.
Gurley was second only to Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel in rushing in the SEC last year, and has averaged 112.5 yards in four games this season. Matthews, a true freshman, is a starter at safety.
Both have missed the Bulldogs' last two games -- Gurley with an ankle injury and Matthews with a hamstring issue.
Gurley's backup, Keith Marshall, has been lost for the year with a knee injury suffered last week against Tennessee. With Gurley and Marshall out, true freshmen J.J. Green and Brendan Douglas led the Bulldogs' ground game on Saturday with 87 and 70 yards, respectively.

Prize Fight
A Soft Drink Leads to Hard Feelings as Coworkers Battle Over a $1 Million Bottle Cap
Great stuff, right? Of course, real life is seldom as simple as it's depicted in commercials. And that's exactly what Sindy Allen, who on March 17 did in fact open a Pepsi-Cola bottle worth a million dollars, would soon find out.
The next day, Judy Richardson, 45, who works the morning shift at Wild Oats, heard about Allen's lucky find. She realized the Pepsi bottle was the very one she had bought at a store next door, forgot to drink and left on a shelf behind the counter a day earlier. She then confronted Allen, with whom she had always been friendly, but got nowhere. "She said, 'It's mine; I found it; I'm not sharing it; I'm keeping it,' " says Richardson. "It's just not right. I thought her conscience would get to her, but it hasn't." Meanwhile the people at Pepsi, who had hoped to celebrate the soft drink's 100th anniversary with its Pepsi-Cola Globe Buck Contest, have decided to back slowly away from the dispute while making no sudden moves. "It's up to them to figure out who the true winner is," says Pepsi spokesman Jon Harris. "But once they do, we'll be giving away a million bucks." Enter the lawyers. Richardson filed suit, asking a Nevada court to determine who owns the bottle cap. "My analogy is to a communal refrigerator at the workplace," says Rob Goldstein, Richardson's attorney. "You store your lunch in it, but does that give your coworker the right to open your lunch bag? You still have an expectation of ownership and privacy." Counters Allen's lawyer Benson Lee: "If you leave anything, there's a presumption you don't want it."
The staff at Wild Oats, for the most part, has sided with Richardson. "Sindy's a good person, but I think she has convinced herself that what she did isn't wrong," said Daisy Garcia, the manager on duty when Allen found the bottle. "If it was up to me, she should just split it with Judy."
In a better world, this might be where the music soars, the women split the dough, and happily we fade to black. But this is real life, remember. On the advice of her lawyer, Allen did offer to split the winnings with Richardson. But Richardson, who has no receipt and only the testimony of three friends to prove she bought the Pepsi, rejected the offer. "It's the principle," she explains. "I'm the one who bought the bottle, and I know it was meant for me.
That is a once-in-a-lifetime thing that just doesn't happen to everybody." Incensed, Richardson filed court papers suggesting her Pepsi bottle was stolen. Replies Allen indignantly: "I am not a thief! I didn't steal that bottle. It's my money. I got it fair and square."
Both women have continued to work at Wild Oats, though on different shifts. "I can't afford to quit right now," says Allen, a first-year theater major at the University of Nevada Las Vegas. She envisions using the winnings—about $3,000 a month, after taxes, for 20 years—to go on a cruise and shopping spree, while Richardson, the married mother of two, sees a way to send her younger child to private school. "I would still have to work," she says, "but it would really make my life easier."
For now, there are no winnings, only the prospect of a nasty trial. "I feel sorry for her," says Richardson of her rival. "When you do something that's not quite right, you have a hard time living with yourself and looking in the mirror every day."
Allen, though, says her reflection is just fine and dandy: "I'm excited. It feels really good to win something." Over at Wild Oats, staffers just shake their heads. "It's like everybody's been saying," Garcia says with a shrug. "It's going to end up with most of the lawyers getting most of the money."

John Dudley: Browns, Bills Steelers should target these players
The Browns and Bills have new coaches and high picks in the first round of this week's NFL Draft.
Where have we heard that before?
Meanwhile, the Steelers will resume patching holes in what's been a fairly startling roster exodus since January with a customary, middle-of-the-first-round selection.
Predicting draft picks, much less the trades that often jumble their order, can be a relatively futile exercise.
Somewhat simpler is pointing out a team's most glaring need -- although in the cases of the Browns and Bills, that's not easy to do.
At any rate, here is what the conversation in the war rooms of our three regional teams should sound like in the hours leading up to Thursday's first round.
- Browns: It would make sense for the Browns to trade out of the sixth overall spot and try to re-acquire the second-round pick they used last year to take Josh Gordon.
But for the purposes of this column, we'll assume they stay put, even if the Lions snag Alabama corner Dee Milliner with the pick right before them.
The luxury of having so many holes to fill is the Browns can find a potential starter even if Milliner isn't there. One option could be Tavon Austin, the speedy West Virginia wideout considered the draft's best playmaker. Another could be Austin's Mountaineer teammate, quarterback Geno Smith.
But the smart pick is a corner like Florida State's Xavier Rhodes, who would join Joe Haden to give the Browns two top cover defenders in a division in which they have to face Joe Flacco, Ben Roethlisberger and Andy Dalton a total of six times a year.
- Bills: Needs? The Bills have 'em. They could go in multiple directions with the eighth overall pick -- quarterback, receiver, linebacker, even offensive line.
But rookie coach Doug Marrone seems to understand that playoff teams are built up front, and he also appears to be determined to snatch his former quarterback at Syracuse, Ryan Nassib, in the second round.
The dilemma the Bills face is that their greatest need is at guard, where Andy Levitre left for Tennessee, and conventional wisdom says you don't overpay for a guard with a top-10 pick.
In this case, the Bills should ignore conventional wisdom and grab the best guard in the draft -- Alabama's Chance Warmack -- for two reasons.
First, Warmack has the chance to play at a Pro Bowl level for a decade. Second, unless they trade out of the eighth spot, it would be difficult to make a value pick for a wideout or a linebacker (other than LSU's Barkevious Mingo, who lacks Warmack's can't-miss pedigree).
- Steelers: Ordinarily the Steelers could have zeroed in on a player by now, but this hasn't been an ordinary offseason.
The departures of James Harrison, Willie Colon, Rashard Mendenhall, Keenan Lewis and Mike Wallace make it challenging for one of the NFL's most stabile franchises to address all its needs in one draft.
One of those names stands out, though -- Harrison. There's no player on the roster who can step into the former Pro Bowler's shoes, but there should be a few outside linebacker types around in the middle of the first round with a chance to make an immediate impact.
The best one remaining on the board likely will be Georgia's Jarvis Jones, whose stock has slipped a little since the combine because of concerns over his ability to learn complicated schemes.
If any defensive coordinator can help a young player see the light, it's Dick LeBeau. My guess is the Steelers would never regret taking Jones.

I was concerned that the fishnet style would look too rugged but, instead, they add an elegance to the room. I really like that when the windows are open, the breeze passes right through the curtains so they don't blow around so much.

Best of 2010: iPad Cooking App for Kids with Top Chef Master Marcus SamuelssonOneHungryMama
I have a filing system in my brain. I see, read, hear about and, of course, taste things and neatly file them in my noggin (maybe I jot them down on a post-it, too!). One of my categories is "big companies doing cool things."
By now you've probably guessed that I don't easily fill that file but when something earns a spot, I think it's important to share it. I think it's especially important in the case of Big Fork Little Fork, a Kraft Foods iPad app for kids and families done with Top Chef Master Marcus Samuelsson that encourages food literacy and healthy eating. Because, if you ask me, any well done effort to encourage healthy eating at home is an effort that should be applauded.
Big Fork Little Fork, a 2010 Babble Best "Kitchen Tool for Kids" Pick, is chock full of recipes and content designed to inform and get kids excited about healthy foods. The recipes are easy and kid friendly. I was worried that they might be too kid friendly, if you know what I mean. I'm not looking for an app that's going to have me eating smiling pizza faces every night, and you know how I feel about separate meals (no thank you!). Enter Top Chef Masters winner Marcus Samuelsson.
Marcus is a world renowned chef whose cooking is influenced by far flung cuisines including Swedish and Ethiopian cooking. With a delicate hand, Marcus brought his worldly point of view to a series of recipes that he developed exclusively for Big Fork Little Fork. His accessible, easy-to-make meals are full of big flavors that will, at once, feel familiar and exciting. Like this Tomato Polenta which I got to try myself. So easy, super versatile (can be served at breakfast with eggs, for lunch or dinner), and totally delicious for grownups and kids alike (it's made with a little smoked paprika, which is one of my favorite spices of all time!).
Sure, every recipe in the vast Big Fork Little Fork library, even the ones developed by Chef Samuelsson, calls for a Kraft product. In most cases, though, it's pretty innocuous. Sour cream, grated cheese — staples of every kitchen. Spending time on Big Fork Little Fork does not feel like a Kraft-branded experience (and if anyone would be sensitive to that, it's me!). Plus, the extended content — games, how-to videos, fun facts, tips and tools — promote the food pyramid, seasonal eating, cooking with kids, learning about fresh fruits and veggies and meal planning, an important part of healthy home cooking.
All this, not to mention the easy-to-navigate interface. A combination of clear content sections — cook, watch, tips, tools, play, learn — and secret nooks and crannies makes for a fun experience.
I know it's complicated when huge companies like Kraft do cool stuff to help make the world a better place. I never said that my "big companies doing cool things" category is an easy one to define. But it's there and, to be honest, I'd rather it be full than empty. So, thank you, Kraft Foods and Chef Samuelsson, for giving me something new to file away with Big Fork Little Fork.
You can download the Big Fork Little Fork app for free through iTunes and purchase Chef Samuelsson's 50 premium recipes and 10 videos for $4.99.

NuSera works great for me!
NuSera by Metagenics was recommended to me by my Doctor who uses it herself! For me It works very well to help take the edge off stressful situations which keep me in a prolonged state of tension. About a half hour after I use it I feel a suttle calming effect barely noticeable but effective for me. I also take it with me when we travel as it works great to help me be able to fall asleep better in a strange bed/environment. I was happy to find it available through PureFormulas.com with FREE SHIPPING! I drive 50 miles to the nearest health products store to purchase it. With our current gas prices PureFormulas.com free shipping is almost like buying it at half price due to the savings for me! Thank you PureFormulas... so glad that I discovered you!

Very Helpful!
I have been using NuSera by Metagenics for 5 years. I use it to help me, for whatever reason - I can't seem to get to sleep. It is a chewy chocolatey tab - easy to take, which I wash down with either milk or almond milk. There is no "hang-over" and it is not habit forming. This is fabulous for travel while trying to sleep in unfamiliar or uncomfortable locations. It is always in my medicine cabinet.
Ease of use and no after effects.

One of the most common infobites about the 2010 Giants was their luck at keeping the starting pitching and bullpen off the disabled list. Flash forward to 2011 and, other than Barry Zito's sprained ankle, San Francisco's pitching staff could be featured on the cover of Healthy Pro Athletes Monthly.
It's the rest of the team that now has permanent reservations in the local emergency room. While the San Francisco Giants' offense is 29th out of 30 MLB teams in runs scored with 230 (3.48 runs per game), the hitters now lead the Majors in the following categories: MRIs taken, fractured/broken bones re-screwed and set, groins and obliques strained, and ankles and knees battered and swollen the size of a Volkswagen.
When Freddy Sanchez separated his shoulder during the weekend series with Cincinnati, the Giants received a warning letter from the Obama White House about the team's impact on the rising cost of national heath care. I mean, dude, this is serious.
We are approaching the mid-point of the second 50 games of 2011. What do the Giants need to do to adjust, retool and move forward? To stay at the top of the National League West and be prepared to excell in the 2011 playoffs, these are the issues facing the Giants front office :
1. Improve the everyday line-up with the addition of an impact hitter in the outfield.
With all the infield injuries and DL stints this team has suffered, you might think this is where overall run production could be best improved. But it's in the outfield where this team desperately needs to improve offensively. The current outfield line-up is not close to contributing the runs the Giants need to stay on top:
|Cody Ross
|Pat Burrell
|Andres Torres
|Nate Schierholtz
|Aaron Rowand
Cody Ross is an everyday player whose career stats support putting
his name in the line-up every day. Ross has averaged 24 home runs
each of the past three years and has excellent defensive skills.
At this point in their careers Pat Burrell and Aaron Rowand are at
best pinch hitters and back-ups. It is only the $24m the Giants owe
Rowand for 2011 and 2012 that makes him untradable and keeps
him on this team.
Nate Schierholtz has had some clutch hits this year and has always been an outstanding fielder but he is not an everyday player, which is how the Giants are currently using him. Lifetime he has a .715 OPS and a .269 BA. When you look at Schierholtz's stats averaged over 162 games, he hits 6 HRs and plates 35 RBIs a year.
At this point in their careers Rowand, Schierholtz and Burrell are not going to magically turn their games around and be the offensive force this teams requires.
The San Francisco Giants need to revamp their outfield by: 1) playing Brandon Belt in right or left field when he returns from the DL after the All Star break; and, 2) deal for an outfielder who is a game changer, who can produce extra base hits and runs, and who will lead by example.
2. Keep the left side of the infield in tact the rest of the season with Pablo Sandoval at third and Brandon Crawford at shortstop.
With the disturbing injuries to Freddy Sanchez, Buster Posey, Brandon Belt, Pablo Sandoval, Mark DeRosa, and others Sandoval's return tomorrow provides the promise of increased run production. The best support Giants starters can have for the remainder of the 2011 season is Sandoval's offense and Crawford's defense. This is the foundation on which San Francisco can solidify its winning season and charge into the playoffs.
Miguel Tejada no longer has the capability to consistently contribute at the plate or on the field. Tejada recently had two productive games in a row and fans can get mesmorzied when a sub-performing player shows some spark. Here's a reality check: Tejada is batting .227 with an amazingly dismal .258 on base percentage. He also leads the team with 6 errors and no longer has the range to play the infield every day.
The addition of Bill Hall is an understandable reaction to the Freddy Sanchez injury. It is smart to immediately bring in an older veteran guy to provide stability and calm when something like this happens. But Hall has been cut from four different teams since 2009 and has a lifetime batting average of .249; his career is winding down. The team needs the speed of Manny Burriss in the line-up and he has the range to play an above average second base. Keep Hall as a safety net (or let a healthy Mike Fontenot be the safety net).
3. The catching issue needs to be addressed.
As important as Eli Whiteside has been to the World Championship Giants, the team will be forced to confront the loss of catcher Buster Posey sooner or later. The efforts of Whiteside and backup Chris Stewart have so far been exemplary, but the defensive and offensive production behind the plate needs to be upgraded by an experienced everyday catcher who has the ability to work with the pitching staff.
Since Posey's injury, Giant catchers are batting .167 with 2 extra base hits. Defensively, teams are increasingly running on the Giants: Buster Posey had a 27-15 steals/caught stealing record; Whiteside and Stewart are a combined 22-7.
On a team that is already offensively-challenged, the catcher's position has to provide better run production. The idea some have floated about Sandoval playing some games behind the plate is a loser on many levels– there's the transition curve, the increased potential for injury, and weakening an already damaged infield. Why would anyone even think that could work?
No one can replace the talented Posey, but GM Brian Sabean and Manager Bruce Bochy are faced with two choices: pull the trigger on a deal to bring an experienced and productive catcher on board, or cross their fingers and hope for the best.

Can anyone recommend social media sites that do a particularly great job with their first time user introductory / onboarding process?
Regarding linear processes or wizards that include a clearly communicated number of steps such as Step 1 of 3, Step 2 of 3, etc.. My client is a large and well-known financial company. I am coming on to a project where we are designing standards for design patterns for a system. I came across a pattern where someone designed a linear flow (for making a payment for example) when Step 3 is actually the confirmation screen saying "Thanks, payment has been made" There is nothing left for the user to do but close the dialog.
Hi all,
Can anyone think of any online or offline apps or websites that have
a well-designed "wizard" or customization widget/feature that helps
you customize and produce big blocks of text? Like write a letter, or
customize a product, or create a product...What I'm working on is
text-based, but I'd love to see any examples, text or photo or
whatever, anyone's got!
Basically, I'm looking for examples that take in *many*
inputs/fields and display *many* options/returns in a fun, clear, and
easy-to-understand way.

Proven tool for park and urban conquests.
Rope tow parks, late night urban missions, and early-season sessions are where you can find the Rome Artifact Snowboard in its natural habitat. Loaded with the poppy, locked-in feel of traditional camber, the Artifact remains a top choice for urban rail missions and all-out park destruction.
Traditional camber provides the pop and power that other profiles imitate but never duplicate. Skatecore profiling thins out the board between the bindings and thickens it underfoot for a skate-like feel that's as close to a pair of trucks as you'll get on snow. The Stomp Core Matrix is reinforced with impact-resistant wood in high-impact areas to increase dampening and strength, and a HotRods Single Glass Barrel running down the center increases pop without sacrificing the mellow torsional flex.
A StraightBiax laminate keeps the flex soft and makes it easy to ride. Rebound sidewalls increase impact absorption to prevent blowouts and breaks when you're gapping to big down rails, and they also smooth out the ride a bit. It's finished with a high-density Impact base for extra durability, because sometimes there's not a lot of snow on top of that concrete.

Soft, Stable, Responsive
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I've had a few days on this board and this thing rips. It's responsive and stable, yet still soft and press-able. It holds it down on jumps and gives you great edge in. The base is a little on the softer side, so keep it away from sharks (rocks/trees hidden under the snow) during early and late season riding. Very fun to ride, however I would recommend it to intermediate to advanced riders due to the traditional positive camber profile.
My go-to park board!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
The Rome Artifact is insanely fun! I used to ride a fully-rockered board for the past few years and going back to the traditional camber has made my rail game so much better already. The deck is really lightweight, the blunted tips also add to the swing weight when spinning. The flex is perfectly playful but doesn't wash out on jumps or bigger drops.
Overall, if you're thinking about getting this board, do it! It's the most fun I've had on a snowboard in a long time! Will definitely re-purchase whenever this one loses steam (which doesn't seem like any time soon).

The Artifact is just plain fun. Buttery and playful with just enough pop. It's at home on rails and urban features, but it's pure entertainment to skate the whole mountain on.
the. best.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
from the street, to the park, to the slopes, the only weapon a true snowboarder needs. full camber pop, extreme durability, soft flex, affordable park tank.
Rail Slayer
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
You want to ride rails like the pros? This deck is your best bet yet. It has a smooth and consistent flex that is perfect for locking in presses and blunts. The extruded base is hard and can take a beating on metal, concrete, rocks, whatever. However, it is strong enough to take on larger park jumps if you like to mix those in. You know you want it.

The on-again, off-again public love fest between Gov. Chris Christie and Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney is examined today in a long article in Politico.
The online news organization quotes campaign insiders as saying Christie was Romney's first choice for vice president on the Republican ticket. Romney was so close to picking Christie, Politico reports, that advisors at Romney's Boston headquarters believed he had offered the governor the job.
The story reports that Christie was one of the campaign's favorite surrogates, but that they started souring on him when he showed up late to a few events. Even worse, they feared Christie's brash attitude and tendency to speak his mind would be a liability in the West Wing, leading them to settle on the more understated Paul Ryan.

1. Showcase of Propaganda
The showcase We Love Propaganda8 is full of colorful creations, with a lot of polarizing political perspectives. In its most basic sense, propaganda presents information that is primarily meant to influence an audience. No surprise, then, that this kind of public relations comes with some rather expressive graphic design and typography.
Depending on the political statement or social or environmental concern being espoused, propaganda can be perceived as being shrill, gruff, cheeky or provocative. Simple mass marketing and an ubiquitous public presence are always suitable for propaganda. Messages and appeals have to be simple and easy to understand. Vibrant colors, sometimes in striking contrast, are as characteristic as iconic pictures and bold fonts. The statements are usually grossly misrepresentative, intentionally, of course. We don't love propaganda as an instrument to influence opinion per se, but it is a remarkable way to use design to achieve certain goals. (cs)
2. The Latest JavaScript Library Codes All in One Place
ScriptSrc.net10 puts all the latest versions of script tags from the various JavaScript libraries in one place. Whether you use jQuery, swfobject, Chrome Frame, MooTools, Ext JS, YUI, Prototype, Dojo or Scriptaculous, you'll find the most recent script tags here.
With a single click, you can copy the tag to paste in your code. There's also an option to view info about each library, including the path that you copied, the website of the library, the version and the time of the most recent update. You can also follow @ScriptSrc12 on Twitter for updates on the latest releases from the various JavaScript libraries. (mm)
3. Rounded Images With CSS3 and jQuery
Have you ever tried to apply the
border-radius and
box-shadow properties to images? If you have, you probably noticed not only that modern browsers display corners differently, but that the corners look a bit unfinished and broken. Webkit displays rounded corners but does not support the inset box shadow. In Firefox, the
border-radius doesn't display at all (see the image below).
Nick La has come up with a solution to this problem14. The idea is simple: wrap a
span tag around the image element. Then, put the original image in the background with the
background-image property, and then hide the original image by applying
opacity: 0 to it. Or to make it easier, just embed a jQuery code to generate
span tags for images on the fly (which you'll find in his article).
The technique works with any image dimension and works even if the width and height attributes are not defined. Obviously, the user has to be using a modern browser to see the effect. (vf)
4. Generate Secure Passwords Without Typing Randomly
Secure passwords are the backbone of website security. Whether you generate passwords for your own website or to use for online banking or on another website where security is paramount, any time you use a logical password you make it easy for someone to abuse it or hack into your account.
The Secure Password Generator16 lets you enter parameters, including the length of the password, whether to include uppercase and/or lowercase letters or numbers or punctuation and whether to eliminate characters that resemble each other (such as i and l, 1 and I, and o and 0). Then, just select the number of passwords to generate, and it returns a list. It even includes phonetics for each password to make it easier to read out loud (in case you're giving a password to someone over the phone, for example). (cc)
5. What Software and Hardware Do Professionals Use?
Here is a simple idea: ask a bunch of professionals and experts what software and hardware they use, and then present the results in a series of blog posts. Someone did just that for the setup17, a blog that asks professionals what they use to get the job done.
The website is a useful resource for people who love to discover new tools. Browse these nerdy interviews to find a job title that appeals to you (there are people from all walks of life) and then explore the answers. Guaranteed, you will come across some new wonders, especially because every interviewee explains why they have chosen a particular tool.
The setup is growing in popularity. People are creating setup-style websites in other languages19, such as German, Czech/Slovakian, Romanian, Vietnamese, Hungarian and French. For those who really like this idea and want to create their own website for it, they can start by drawing inspiration from people who have already implemented a set-up of their own on a website. (jb)
6. The Art of Analogue Computing (Video)
Many jokes are circulating these days that show people who work too much on a computer trying to execute computer-like shortcuts in real life. The video The Art of Analogue Computing exploits this idea of mixing our online and offline lives by imagining what our computers would be like if they were constructed in analogue. The result is an entertaining short movie that achieves its goal: being funny while reminding us how digitally connected we all are. (jb)

As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
Adapting to Evolving Business Environments Is...
Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
Expanding Use of NGS Has Largely...
An immune system component that is a primary cause of bone destruction and inflammation in autoimmune diseases actually protects bone in the oral cavity from infectious pathogens, according to researchers at the University at Buffalo (UB).
The component, IL-17 or TH-17, was recognized only in the past 18 months. "We know now that almost all autoimmune diseases, at least in the mouse model, are caused by TH-17 cells," says Sarah L. Gaffen, Ph.D., associate professor of oral biology in the UB School of Dental Medicine, associate professor of microbiology and immunology in the UB School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, and senior author. Therapies that target IL-17, a protein hormone made by T-helper cells, or its cellular receptor are currently being developed.
Dr. Gaffen and her team, however, have discovered that, in contrast to its action in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), IL-17 actually protects bone in the oral cavity from infectious pathogens such as Porphyromonas gingivalis, a bacterium that plays a major role in most periodontal disease in humans. "This new information," Dr. Gaffen points out, "has forced scientists to revise completely how they view their favorite disease. Everyone now has to rethink the causative mechanism."
They conducted the research in mice bred to have no receptors for IL-17. "I predicted these mice without the IL-17 receptor were going to be protected from periodontal bone loss, just like they're protected from arthritic bone loss," Dr. Gaffen adds. "In fact, we got the opposite result. The mice without IL-17 were much more susceptible to bone loss caused by periodontal disease, compared to normal mice.
"It turns out that IL-17 is really important in regulating neutrophils by causing other cells in the vicinity to recruit these infection fighters to the infection site," Dr. Gaffen explains.
IL-17 would likely be toxic if given systemically, so it may not be a therapeutic candidate to increase immunity, she adds.
The research findings appear in the May issue of Blood.

While the economy continues to mend, there's one area where the money continues to flow in. "The obesity epidemic they say is a trillion dollar market," says Dr. Salvatore Lacagnina, Lee Memorial Health System's Vice President of Health and Wellness.
A recent study found that those who are overweight or obese spend more on doctor's visits and medications than those who are at a normal weight; costs that can really add up down the road. "What you are paying later on is not only the money for your health care, you're paying in years, you're paying in the quality of life, you're paying in the fact that you can't do the things with your children or your grandchildren that you want to do."
Dr. Lacagnina says investing just a little time and money into your health now can prevent costly problems later. "It's really interesting: when you tell people: join a gym, join a fitness facility, do something that you have to pay for, buy some weight loss medication and people say, 'I don't want to spend money on that.' Then I tell them, 'You're either going to pay now or you are going to pay later'. That's really the truth."
At the Cape Coral Wellness Center, both the young and old are profiting from their healthy lifestyle habits. Dr. Lacagnina hopes young people will take a moment to examine their own habits and calculate the cost. "There's no way to avoid it. If you don't tackle it as a young person, it just compounds and becomes a much more significant problem as an older person so you might as well bite the bullet and get things under control early on. It'll make your life a lot easier later on."
With so many weight loss options out there, it can be overwhelming. Your doctor can help you design a customized weight loss portfolio that you can cash in on.

We also want to look, beyond the normative cultural forms, at para-artistic sites such as television reality, telephony, virtual interaction (Facebook, Twitter, etc.), open-market hawking, etc. The colloquium's immediate objective is to update critical engagements with popular modes of culture, taking into consideration the recent emergence of new forms such as hip-hop, on the one hand, and the transformation of other forms such as home video culture as exemplified by Nollywood, on the other.We therefore seek panel and individual presentations from scholars and practitioners that address issues relating, but not limited, to the following:
- Performance (Music, Drama, Disc Jockeying, etc.)
- Virtual Communication/ Cyberculture
- Reality Television
- Telephony
- Advertising
- Stand-up Comedy
- Slogans
- Home Video
- Football Fandom
- Body Art
- Fashion
Abstracts of not more that 250 words should be sent as email attachments to firstname.lastname@example.com. Deadline: Friday, September 30, 2011 (12 midnight, Nigerian time). We will respond to applicants regarding acceptance not later than Monday, October 3, 2011.
The colloquium will hold at the University of Ibadan in late November, 2011. A festschrift of presented papers will be published afterwards.

What Does Target's Credit Card Breach Say About Online Shopping Fears?Terrance Gaines
According to Target, hackers may have gained access to 40 million debit/credit card numbers and other personal information including customer names, card expiration dates, and the cards' three-digit security codes… Just about all the information that a grimy character or group would need to go on a charging spree.
It gets worse — Target has warned anybody who made purchases between November 27th and December 15th to keep a close eye on their credit card statements for irregular activity. In other words, hackers gained access to the debit/credit card information starting on Thanksgiving.
Just in case you're not doing the math, hackers got a peek at Target customers' credit card information during Black Friday shopping… one of, if not the, busiest shopping period of the year for many retail companies. Target was in fact one of the retail store chains that decided to open up Thanksgiving night, now called "Gray Thursday." In hindsight, that probably wasn't a good idea.
According to Target, once they learned of the breach, they contacted the proper authorities, and are currently investigating the matter. Target has assured shoppers that the issue has been identified and resolved, and they can continue to make transactions. (Any customers who think their cards were affected should report it to their respective credit card company, and can also call Target at 866-852-8680.)
Now, the twist is that hackers did not access credit card information from online purchases, they somehow installed rogue software on the Target POS (Point Of Sale) credit card readers, where customers manually swiped their cards in over 1,700 Target stores nationwide. I'm sure there are plenty of people who still don't trust online shopping for fear of their personal information being stolen. This latest Target breach is proof-positive that online outlets are not the only targets (see what I did there?) for hackers looking to take advantage of technology.
To pile on even more, unlike online shopping where there are some methods/safeguards customers can use to make it just a little harder to access their financial information, there isn't much you can do when the brick and mortar store that you've trusted with your credit card information gets breached.
Now I know this is a lose/lose question, but this is for all the online-shopping skeptics and naysayers: The idea that any type of financial transaction processed digitally, anytime, anywhere, is potentially subject to being accessed by anybody with the time and means — does that make you feel just a little better about shopping online?
…Or does that make you want to take all your money out of banks and stuff it under your mattress?

I work extensively in the biogeophysical sciences, and aim to merge the latest scientific information with data generation and analysis to identify and take advantage of opportunities while diagnosing and solving problems related to changes in weather and climate. While I participate in various laboratory projects, I contribute mostly to the Climate-induced Vegetation Change: Past and Future, Regional Climate Science and Assessment, and Climate Change and Sea Level research foci.
As a central piece of the first two foci, I am interested in what kinds of changes in climate it takes to put vegetation of Southwestern deserts, grasslands, and forests under abnormal or extreme environmental conditions. For example, fewer occurrences of freezing temperatures in the Sonoran Desert region in recent decades make winter a lot more hospitable for certain species such as the iconic saguaro cactus. Also, droughts and warmer temperatures can act alone or in tandem to bring about conditions of higher water stress. But due in part to terrain in the Southwest ranging from below sea level to above treeline and producing diverse climatic and biotic zones, the spatial patterns of such conditions vary tremendously. This not only makes reason for more inquiry, but also calls for production of some captivating maps. My most recent contributions to the Regional Climate Science and Assessment focus include development of new projects that examine weather phenomena associated with historical floods and weather extremes relevant to agriculture.
For the latter, I map areas potentially impacted by sea level rise through the spatial analysis of digital elevation models at both global and national levels. In addition to the over 250 documentaries, magazines, newspapers, and organizations that have used results from this project in their publications and exhibits, tens of thousands of people have viewed the analyses through our Web map visualization tools.
In addition to these research foci, I recently launched a new branch of study for the laboratory that focuses on Geospatial Environmental Modeling (GEM). Our goal is to aggregate climate data in a state-of-the-art geographic information system (GIS) in order to assess and anticipate environmental impacts from climatic hazards at regional scales.
Besides research activities, I administer several facets of the laboratory such as lake sediment core archives, computers, analysis equipment, and the website.

It's ironic that the Alliance for Affordable Energy complains about utilities asking customers to pay for the cost of doing business while at the same time lobbying to force Louisiana citizens to pay higher rates for their pet projects.
Thanks to the special interest's recent lobbying effort, all Louisiana customers may be forced to pay higher utility bills for a Renewable Portfolio Standard, which compels utilities to buy solar and wind power -- the most expensive and unreliable power sources.
Not only will those power sources cost more and work less than traditional power plants that operate cleanly 24/7, but Louisianans will pay for the startup costs too. If you don't believe me about the added costs, ask the people of Austin, Texas, who are paying more on their bills for the privilege buying wind power.
Meanwhile, Entergy is asking customers for pennies to maintain reliable, cheap and clean nuclear power.

Identity Development of College Studentsby MARCIA B. BAXTER MAGOLDA Susan R. Jones Elisa S. Abes
This book describes contemporary perspectives on the identity development of college students in the U.S. with an emphasis on multiple social identities. The book traces the evolution of the study of identity in relation to contemporary research and theoretical frameworks. These contemporary perspectives are situated within a holistic description of identity that portrays identity as the intersection of context, personal characteristics, and social identities. It explores the nature of context, including inequitable power structures, and how context influences and is influenced by multiple social identities. The authors use research on multiple identities as a springboard, including using critical theoretical frameworks to analyze these relationships, such as intersectionality, critical race theory, and queer theory.

Thursday, November 7, 2013
The high school football playoffs are a double-edged sword.
It is the time of year every player and coach covets, yet all will end the season with a loss and disappointment.
Except one.
This time last year Cross made its historic run through the Class A Div. II playoff bracket on the way to the Trojans' first ever state championship.
A year before that Timberland won its first state championship.
In 2009 Berkeley won its fifth state championship in school history.
As Thanksgiving draws near these three schools will vie for that ultimate prize, another state title and a ring.
Berkeley (5-5, 3-2) the third seed in Region 8AAA, will travel to Myrtle Beach (6-4, 4-1), the second seed out of Region 7AAA. The Seahawks upset favorite North Myrtle Beach to upend the brackets and the Stags downed Hilton Head to get the favorable slots, that being on the opposite end of the Lower State bracket from undefeated Socastee (10-0, 5-0).
Coach Jeff Cruce is optimistic about his team's chances.
"We're excited about it being November," he said. "It's playoff time. This is the season we've all been waiting for – this is why we play in September and October. Everything that's happened up to this point gets wiped clean. You win you move on.
"You can't break it down anymore simply than that."
Berkeley will ride on the strong shoulders of its defense, anchored by defensive backs Branden Williams and Josh Simmons. On offense, the Stags will rely on what Berkeley fans hope are the two good legs of quarterback Joseph Dress who has been hampered by a bum ankle for the past month.
Injuries, especially in the trenches, have hit Berkeley hard.
"Injuries have decimated our offensive line with Owen Wrenn and Sterling Fiddie being out for the past two weeks," Cruce said. "Over the course of the season five of our starters have been out, but you play the hand you're dealt."
The Timberland Wolves (8-2, 5-0) will use their first round bye and try to heal a little.
Injuries have hit the Wolves hard as well.
Tight end and defensive end Wyatt Craig is out for the season with a broken collarbone and quarterback Matt Gabel missed the region championship clinching 50-0 win over Lee Central with a concussion.
"It's not a serious concussion as concussions go," Craig said. "If we were playing Friday night Matt could play and be fine. He'll be ready to go when we play next week.
"Ryan Hood though, stepped in and did a good job in his place against Lee Central."
The 7AA region championship was Timberland's eighth title in nine years.
"The one year we didn't win the region was in 2011 when Bishop England won," Craig said. "But we went on to win the state championship that year, too."
So, coincidentally, did the Bishops.
Going into the Class AA playoffs, Craig likes where his team is.
"After the loss to Berkeley everybody gave up ... even some of our fans," he said. "Since then we have jelled as a team. They've all stepped up and done some things and as a team they really seem to like each other."
Timberland has won five straight since the 31-13 loss to Berkeley and will face the winner of the Aynor/Mullins game at home on Nov. 15.
Cross (5-5, 3-1) opens defense of its 2012 Class A Div. II state championship as the number one seed in the Lower State bracket and will face Lincoln at home on Friday.
Coach Shaun Wright said his team plans to take one week and game at a time.
"We are very fortunate to have the number one seed going into the playoffs," he said. This season has been very challenging to say the least but we are where we want to be with an opportunity to play four more weeks."
The Trojans take on Region 6A foe Lincoln in the opening round, a team Cross beat handily 56-8 in the regular season.
"We truly understand the meaning of playing and coaching like its your last," Wright said. "Playing a team twice in one year is always challenging but we will be ready to go come Friday. Every week it's a one shot deal so we have to be sharp in our preparations."
Kickoff for all Friday night games is at 7:30 p.m.

When Prayer Is More Powerful Than Politics
Watching the dysfunction in Washington over the past two weeks has been painful. Our leaders have grown too comfortable with pushing the limits, and we let a few dozen of our own representatives — the people elected to promote the common good, or "general welfare," as the Constitution calls for— hold the nation's economy hostage for the sake of their political self-interest.
But after the storm comes the promise — the hope of lessons learned and new ways forward together. A few key groups of people have renewed my faith that this is possible.
