By Bio-IT World Staff
August 5, 2014 | A new four-year program of grants to organizations developing DNA sequencing technologies, totaling $14.5 million, will bring to a close the Advanced DNA Sequencing Technology initiative that has been funded by the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) for over a decade. The NIH announced the new awards, which will be distributed to eight different organizations over a period of two to four years, in a press release on Monday.
When the NHGRI began the Advanced DNA Sequencing Technology program in 2004, the cost of sequencing a whole human genome was measured in the tens of millions of dollars. The NHGRI made a concerted effort to foster ideas with the potential to radically bend the cost curve, and while the Institute can hardly claim sole credit, that effort has been by any measure a terrific success. The very first round of Advanced DNA Sequencing Technology grants included two awards to the 454 Life Sciences Corporation, which just one year later would announce the first successful sequencing of a bacterial genome using sequencing-by-synthesis. That method that would become foundational to a thousandfold plunge in sequencing costs between 2007 and 2011.
With Illumina's launch this January of its new HiSeq X instruments, which the company claims have delivered the long-sought-after "$1,000 genome," the NHGRI may reasonably feel that its grants have accomplished their mission of enabling DNA sequencing at a scale unimaginable even a decade ago. Nonetheless, the Institute has continued to fund new approaches, including many groups that hope to disrupt the sequencing-by-synthesis paradigm with even more revolutionary devices. Nanopore technology, in particular, has featured in every round of grants from 2004 on; by forcing DNA through nanoscale pores, and reading the DNA bases one by one as they pass through, this method aims to drastically simplify and miniaturize the sequencing process. Oxford Nanopore is now widely expected to deliver the first commercial nanopore sequencing system in the near future, with its MinION device already in early access. Still, there are many possible approaches to a nanopore sequencer, and the NHGRI grants continue to experiment with different ideas.
Four of the new grants announced this week will go to groups working on nanopores, including the largest single grant, of $4.4 million to M. Reza Ghadiri of the Scripps Research Institute, whose team aims to create biological nanopores using lipids, proteins, and DNA scaffolds. Even Illumina received a grant of $592,000 for its own in-house nanopore program. Other grants hope to fill gaps in the utility of modern sequencing technologies: Kun Zhang and Xiaohua Huang of UC San Diego will receive $3.7 million for a single-cell sequencing method, and Jay Shendure of the University of Washington will receive $1.7 million to more efficiently assemble genomes over long distances.
Although it is bittersweet to see the Advanced DNA Sequencing Technology program winding down, future funding for the field of genomics may be better invested in other directions — such as improving the annotation of the genomes that can now be sequenced in unprecedented volumes. In the meantime, the legacy of these grants can be clearly seen in the NHGRI's now-famous graph of falling sequencing prices.
The full list of new grants can be read at the NIH website.

Regardless of how one may feel about Joe Paterno, I think the Penn State sex scandal raises some important issues about just how modern sports affects our society today.
This current scandal is just another example of just how endemic corruption through sports really is at all levels. Universities at almost every level are almost autonomous with a few very powerful people making almost all the decisions with very little oversight and without the ability to be questioned.
Clearly, this can and usually does lead to a situation rife with potential for bad things to happen and go unnoticed or even brushed aside.
I think this whole matter can shed some insight on to sports in America in general. Where people once controlled sports, sports now control us thanks to its extreme commercialization and the amount of money involved. Sure, sports can be fun and they have their place.
Does it need to have all the 24-hour news programs covering every aspect of it? Absolutely not. I think we can see that most professional sports are just another way to separate you from your money, and you've become so conditioned to the sports culture that you'll gladly give it away.
Professional athletes definitely are not role models any longer, and most athletes, although serving a function in society (entertainment) aren't being that much of a benefit to justify the exorbitant amount of money they are paid.
At the university level, the schools stand to earn or lose so much money they're willing to recruit people who have no business being near a collegiate environment, cover up scandals, discriminate on race and sex, and develop a sports culture so pervasive that they overlook the fact that it's a place to be educated.
These schools' sports programs become the sole representation or face of the university, which it shouldn't. With the stakes so high for a school and the money so important, it's no wonder that we have schools covering up sex scandals, blatantly cheating, or de facto paying their players.
At the high school level, parents fight and scream with one another. Parents punish their children over poor performance or parents hold grudges against educators for perceived slights against their children. The lure of professional-athlete money has become so strong that parents pressure their children into unachievable goals.
Why not instead have them focus on academics and get out that way?
Yes, a coach is supposed to be a trusted person, and I'm sure it is something you would never generally expect to happen but I think when gifts and evenings spent at a coaches home become the standard of the level of interaction, somewhere instinctively a red flag should have gone up to some of the victims families.
This alleged ugly incident was incredibly horrific and unfortunate. I think it must be looked at in a larger context, though.
This happened because of one sick person, a lot of individual mistakes, and because the new American sports culture allowed it to.
Remember, sports used to be an outlet to relieve stress, have fun in your free time and enjoy watching with friends.
Today, however, we have so much more free time than we did years ago, and we have given so much more of our power blindly away that - yes you America - have given sports control over you and not the other way around.

ESPN drops ball, too
Is "moral responsibility" a double-edged sword?
This past week's revelations about the sex molestation scandal surrounding Syracuse basketball assistant coach Bernie Fine has opened up a whole new can of worms.
ESPN has admitted that it had a taped interview (recorded in 2003) of serious molestation accusations toward Fine. ESPN never forwarded that tape nor the information on that tape to any legal or law enforcement agency. ESPN, according to Syracuse University officials, did not forward that information to the university, either.
ESPN, in an attempt to evade any responsibility, claimed that it wasn't sure the testifying individual had "credible" information.
ESPN has made a living in the past few weeks with accusations of "moral irresponsibility" toward Joe Paterno and other Penn State officials for not being aggressive enough with reporting possible sexual molestation activities of Jerry Sandusky.
Where is the "moral responsibility" card now?
Will the Cory Gigers of the world be so indignant about moral responsibility when the people (ESPN) they make their money from are the ones who have been totally and completely void of any responsibility to report heinous crimes?
Joe Homsey
'Higher-ups' failed in PSU scandal
As deplorable as this whole Sandusky situation is, did anyone else report or know that it continued to go on for 15 years or more?
It appears that only two reports occurred for most of that time, and those were years ago.
One was tabled by the Centre County District Attorney, and the other was swept under the rug by higher-ups at Penn State and campus police.
In hindsight, the whistle blowers should have kept blowing their whistles.
However, when higher-ups are told of such happenings - and they were - and told all the particulars, it is their duty to pursue and follow through on it. The buck stops here.
Sandusky was no longer a coach under Paterno or had any direct connection with Penn State or its football program.Yet the coaches seem to be the most mentioned scapegoats in the whole sordid affair.
If they had continued the heckling of the top administration or gone over their heads, it probably would have been ignored or considered insubordination.
On the subject of a new coach, I suggest that Tom Bradley be considered.
Based on the Penn State games of the last three weeks, Bradley has been decisive in selecting his starting quarterback, has boldly added new skilled players to the offensive mix with added innovative plays.
Otherwise, if Bradley's age of 55 is a problem, then choose a younger coach that has had experience and success in college football and has the high ideals that we need.
Don Mingle
Roaring Spring
Doom predicted for program
I cringed at the reality of Neil Rudel's column titled, "Meyer hire makes it tough."
Then, with a little retrospect, I realized that PSU officials did this to themselves. Every step of the way has been a slow, self-induced death of this once great football program.
Minus the 900-pound gorilla of Jerry Sandusky, they allowed Joe Paterno to cripple the program and then STEPped right in the cow manure.
The only choice they have is Tom Bradley, and he needs to be able to choose his staff. If they move outside of the program, then recruiting becomes impossible.
No matter how you slice it, 20,000 to 30,000 open seats is a strong possibility for next year.
Sad ... very, very sad.

MLS?deserves more exposure
The 2011 Major League Soccer Cup proved once again that soccer produced in the USA is a second-rate sport.
The league begins play in March with each team playing a 34-match regular season that ends in early October followed by playoffs that culminate in the championship match called MLS Cup.
If you wish to watch these games, it's quite difficult, if not impossible, most of the time.
ESPN, which claims to be the world leader in sports programming, has attempted to let everyone know that they are making soccer more palatable to the American viewer, and one would think that the network would televise MLS games on a consistent basis.
In the early weeks of the season, it is apparently too cold for ESPN to care much about soccer, especially since March Madness is still alive and because baseball is about to begin yet another boring season.
The network shows an occasional early-season match, normally one that has attractive teams in big-money markets such as the LA Galaxy and Red Bull New York.
Apparently, the network thought it would be okay for the Fox Soccer Channel or Univision to telecast MLS matches until ESPN was ready.
When Seattle joined the league followed recently by Portland and Vancouver, ESPN showed the 11 p.m. matches in the middle of the week when many people were thinking about retiring for the evening.
Additionally, the network always seems to find MLS matches to be expendable since they would pre-empt them for nearly anything such as women's softball, Little League baseball and extreme sports.
When college football begins, the telecasts of MLS games nearly disappear completely on ESPN.
Thankfully, NBC has outbid ESPN to televise MLS matches next year.
Hopefully, that network will not force us to watch the Redskins and Eagles when we're supposed to be watching DC United and the Philadelphia Union.

Jatawn Renea Wells, 40, of Canyon died Thursday, Aug. 19, 2004.
Memorial services will be at 4 p.m. Monday in Trinity Fellowship Church in Amarillo with Bo Williams, pastor, officiating. Burial will be private by Brooks Funeral Directors of Canyon and Happy, 1702 Fifth Ave.
Mrs. Wells, 40, began a celebration with Jesus in Heaven on Aug. 19, 2004.
Jatawn was born in Amarillo to Archie and Judy Scribner on July 28, 1964. She attended elementary school in Euless and later moved to Dumas where she graduated high school in 1982.
After graduating high school, Jatawn attended Texas A&M University for one semester and then transferred to San Angelo State University and McMurry University. She graduated from West Texas A&M University in 1986 with a degree in education.
Jatawn taught fifth grade for two years in Andrews, then moved to Canyon in 1991, where she taught in the Canyon Independent School District for 10 years. Throughout her teaching career, Jatawn was known for her influential teaching style and her ability to make the classroom a place of contagious warmth.
Jatawn was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1992, and the 12-year battle that followed began a ministry that touched many lives. Jatawn once said, "God has given me an adventure," and she faced that adventure head on and trusted Jesus all the way. She was a member of First United Methodist Church in Canyon for eight years, where she and her husband participated in couples ministry and the contemporary worship committee. Jatawn was a Stephen minister and often taught Sunday school.
Jatawn and her family become members of Trinity Fellowship Church in Amarillo in 2000. She became a life group leader and student of the School of Ministry. Through church, Bible studies and as a lay leader for the Walk to Emmaus, the Lord used her cancer to minister to women throughout Amarillo, Canyon and the Texas Panhandle.
Jatawn gave meaning to the verse Psalm 105:4, "Seek the Lord and His strength. Seek His face forever more." Jatawn's love for the Lord grew through her struggles with cancer, and she was truly a lady of grace filled with faith.
Anyone who looked at Jatawn could immediately see the light in her eyes and the smile that would brighten a room. She loved talking on the phone, praise songs, Diet Coke and the color pink - she made others comfortable, was easy to talk to and showered those around her with the love that encompassed her heart.
Spunky, beautiful, spirited, insightful, loving - all words that would describe an amazing person - all words that describe the life of Jatawn Wells.
This remarkable daughter, wife, mother, sister and friend lived for Isaiah 61:1-3 and was, is and always will be an oak of righteousness. We call her faithful.
Survivors include her husband of 20 years, Gary; two children, Bree, 20, and Britton, 16; her parents of Dumas; a sister, Jana King and her three children, all of Dumas; her grandmother, Ruth Lane, of Dumas; her in-laws, Jimmy and Jerre Wells of Amarillo, Ruth Wells of Dumas, Joe and Flo Barnett of Stinnett and Bill and Jo-Marie Brown of Amarillo; two brothers-in-law, Scott Wells and wife, Sheila, of Montgomery and Jenks Curry and wife, Erica, of Oklahoma City; three sisters-in-law, Rachel Wells, Stephenie Brown and Audra Curry, all of Amarillo; and numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.
The family suggests memorials be to the Don and Sybil Harrington Cancer Center, 1500 Wallace Blvd., Amarillo, TX in her name.

Although nationally known for their spirit, the Texas Aggies have no cheerleaders. This is because they have no school cheers. Instead, there are a variety of school yells. it is basically an excuse for a bunch of guys to run around in tight pants and "yell".

"Jack," the story of a ten-year-old boy trapped in the body of a forty-year-old man, is one of those films that's so "feel good" you actually have to pull the director's hand out of your pants when it's over. Combining the abject cutesiness of "Big" with the "life is short, experience it while you can" theme of "Awakenings," director Francis Ford Coppola manipulates our emotions with his unique brand of foreplay, which includes the bold, unexpected casting of Robin Williams as the man-child.
When Bill Cosby appears as Jack's tutor, Mr. Woodruff, you know "Jack" will stop at nothing to gain audience sympathy -- "Dear God, Bill Cosby is appearing in another movie, please let it be good. Please?"
Who else can Coppola suck up to? Try fans of "The Nanny." Fran Drescher shows up needlessly as the mother of Williams' best friend. Her character, a woman too stupid to realize that Jack isn't a school principal, no doubt presented another tricky casting challenge -- until Coppola and the producers looked at each other and said in unison: "Drescher."
Imagine a bullet of emotion streaking toward your forehead in slow motion and you'll have sense of the pain endured when Coppola's camera lingers on a butterfly that dies in the palm of Jack's hand. Repeat after me: GEE, IS JACK HIMSELF LIKE A BEAUTIFUL THING WITH A SHORT LIFE? Making the subtext any more obvious would have required subtitles.

Alice Chen is a very good golfer; she is also a good person, and the saying is "Good things happen to good people."
The two-time Montgomery High School Citizenship Award winner, is now a two-time NJSIAA Tournament of Champions winner, as she obliterated the record book at the Cherry Valley Country Club last month. She shot a 7-under 65 to win the tournament by a mere six shots, all three of which are new state records.
The Furman University-bound senior came into the season with the bull's-eye as reigning state champion on her back, as well as a three-time Somerset County Championships champion, but nothing fazed her, as she completed her historic year with an historic round of golf.
For her efforts, Chen is The Times' All-Area Player of the Year.
"All day for me, it was a really solid round for me," Chen said. "But when you hit 17 out of 18 greens, it's going to be a crazy round.
"I wanted to feel the pressure of all of the things around me, but I really just tried to play my own game. You can see throughout the season, there are a lot of players that have so much potential, and really, when it is just a one-day tournament, there is no room for error.
"There are probably many people that could have won, or maybe should have, so to be able to come out of all that and be able to go back-to-back is just an incredible feeling."
Chen shot a 1-under 71 to finish off her quadruple of county titles, which is amazing when one consider the talent that has been on the course around her. But Chen made a career out of making amazing statements.
Her introduction to the world of New Jersey high school golf came back on April 4, 2011, when the precocious freshman won the first tournament she played, the Red Devil Invitational, by the same six strokes as her last tournament.
Her 69 set a tournament record, and it looked like the beginning of a very promising career. Her sophomore year, Chen finished fourth at the TOC and then came the two titles as a junior and senior.
"My three years prior to this one, I had some low scores, and I think my average was lower than this year," Chen said. "I shot the 32, so when I shot the 65 at the TOC, (that) was something incredible. I have to give the glory to God for that. The 65 could be broken by Hana Ku's sister next year. Who knows? I am not one to say what could or could not happen.
"I have a new story about to happen next year at Furman, but I spent some time on that last round looking back at the holes, knowing I won't be back for some time.
"But I am just really, greatly, incredibly grateful to God for all the ups and downs I have had over the four years of high school golf at Montgomery."
School: Princeton.
Year: Senior.
Season in review: Burke had many memorable rounds for the Little Tigers, including the 38 she shot at Greenacres CC to help defeat Lawrence. She finished third at the Mercer County Championships and eighth at the Cherry Valley Invitational. She shot a 79 at the Tournament of Champions, to finish just outside the top 20.
School: Princeton Day.
Year: Senior.
Season in review: Edulblut had the goal when she stepped on the course at Mountain View GC for the MCC: bettering her result from last season. It does not get any better than first. The William & Mary-bound golfer got better every season. On a blustery day, she held her nerve to shoot a 75 a win the tournament by two strokes.
School: Notre Dame.
Year: Sophomore.
Season in review: Schiera is a rising star on the scholastic scene. She announced herself with a top-10 finish at the early season Cherry Valley Tournament. Her fourth-place finish at the Mercer County Championships was the best of any non-senior. Schiera shot a 79 at the TOC, which placed her 22nd.
School: Montgomery.
Year: Junior.
Season in review: She was a key cog in the Tournament of Champions runners-up season, along with Alice Chen. She finished in the top 15 at the TOC, as she shot a 77 boost the Cougars bid to upset four-time champion Ridge. She will try to pick up the mantle of No. 1 in Chen's absence next year.
School: Ewing.
Year: Senior.
Season in review: The best player for the Blue Devils, Kokotajlo finished runner-up at the MCC and performed well during the dual match season. She finished the Tournament of Champions in 19th place. Kokotajlo, who will attend Monmouth in the fall, had a trophy laden four-year career and will be tough to replace next season.
School: WW-P South.
Year: Sixth.
Season in review: Walsh's squad won the regular season Central Jersey Girls Golf League title, as well as the CJGGL Tournament title. The Pirates finished third in the sectional tournament, gaining one of just eight team berths to the Tournament of Champions at Cherry Valley CC. The Pirates lost only one dual match, by a single stroke, but won the McDermott Cup over rival WW-P North in the process.

``(The woman) was very uncomfortable and it was written all over her face,'' Heming said. She said the woman was ``too shocked and too afraid to say anything to him.''
Heming said Walters admitted under questioning that he touched the woman inappropriately and had done the same type of thing to two others in the same medical assistant program.
``(The woman) will tell you she was too scared to say no and the defendant knew that and took advantage of her ... it was not consensual. It was not free,'' Heming said.
Walters' attorney, Rod Soda, told jurors in his opening statement that the issue was whether Walters thought he had the woman's consent to touch her. He said his client did touch the woman, but kept asking if it was OK.
``Her response was yes ... her own admission was she never said no, never stopped him by grabbing his hand,'' Soda said.
In the second alleged groping instance, Walters again asked ``Is this OK?''' Soda said. ``By her own admission she will tell you she never articulates a no.''
``She felt trapped but he didn't know it,'' he said. `` ... if he would have known there was any discomfort, he would have stopped,'' the defense attorney said. ``He thought he had her permission.''
Walters has been practicing in Palm Springs since 1979, according to SleepWise's website.

Latest news for find levaquin
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, also known as COPD, is a vague term find levaquin for different lung issues such as emphysema, bronchiectasis and chronic bronchitis. It is the 3rd highest in disease death rates behind heart disease and cancer. The main cause of deaths related with COPD is a constricted airway in the lungs or renders small lung sacks inelastic and unable to accommodate full breathing cycles. Symptoms associated with COPD can include: losing one's breath with minor activity, chronic coughing, increased sputum, chest tightness or pain with difficulty breathing, increased lung infections and fatigue. Find levaquin medical marijuana oil produces positive results with so many pharmacuticals out on the market that are potentially more harmful then helpful, patients have turned to medical marijuana for some relief without the negative side effects cause by the vary medicines that are supposed to help them. Obviously because of the symptoms of COPD, smoking medical marijuana is out of the question. But many have claimed that using a vaporizer to inhale cannabis is very useful without the effecting the lungs conditions. Most medical marijuana treatments have been mainly targeted towards cancer, Crohn's disease, chronic epileptic seizures find levaquin, glaucoma, Parkinson's, and MS (multiple sclerosis) patients. Mainstream medicine has not been able to cure any of these diseases or even subside symptoms without the effect of creating severe complications, some even fatal. Many of these patients have had wonderful results and relief from symptoms using various forms of treatment from cannabis products with THC applications. Although vaping cannabis has shown multiple positives with COPD symptoms, better results have been achieved by taking cannabis orally, especially the highly condensed potent oil extract that was pioneered by Rick Simpson in Canada and now in Eastern Europe. A man's story linked with CPOD and cannabis oil At the relatively young age of 36, Jeff Waters was diagnosed with COPD. Eight years later he had to be rushed to an ER during another bout with bronchitis. Lung scarring was discovered, and his condition was raised to stage 2 COPD. While prescribing several pharmaceuticals, the doctor told him that it would continue to get worse and eventually kill him. Jeff did continue to get worse. He was unable to climb a flight of stairs and he wound up with stage 3 COPD and an oxygen canister to prove it. Showering and shaving without his oxygen [find levaquin] supply turned out to be almost too arduous of a task. Then an allergic reaction to a prescribed high blood pressure medication put him on life support in ICU with severe pneumonia for a month. After his recovery, he resolved to handle his COPD without mainstream medical interventions.

Event Report – OSCON 2012
FOSS in Portland
OSCON always manages to change with the times without giving up the original vision of community and new ideas.
No matter what happens with the server space, the cloud space, the stock market, or the latest round of startup IPOs, once a year there is always OSCON – O'Reilly Media's great US West Coast celebration of open source technologies. Engineers, programmers, system administrators, and other FOSS enthusiasts gathered in Portland, Oregon, USA, on July 16-20 for this year's event.
OSCON has outlived competitors like the LinuxWorld conference because it has always mixed commercial necessity with a genuine understanding of the authentic open source experience. Extra flourishes, like a 5K run and free lunches for expo visitors, added to the holistic ambiance. Some of the mega-vendors, such as Oracle and IBM, who loomed the largest at shows like this a few years ago, were still present but seemed to have a smaller footprint, leaving a more balanced mix of mid-range and still large (though less ostentatious) vendors who told new stories about cloud computing, big data, and tools for mbracing the mobile space.

Mo Farah disappeared and Jessica Ennis-Hill said she was disappointed as Britain's golden couple returned to the Olympic Stadium on a day of contrasting fortunes at the London Anniversary Games.
Farah destroyed the opposition in the 3,000 metres, including Ethiopia's Tariku Bekele, thanks to a typically stunning last lap. His time of 7 minutes 36.86 seconds was four seconds outside of David Moorcroft's 31-year-old British record, but it underlined Farah's status as the best all-round runner in the world.
A week after breaking Steve Cram's 28-year-old 1,500 metres British record, Farah doubled the distance and was just as impressive. His

EWING -- An executive of a Ewing-based nonprofit SERV Behavioral Health has been arrested on charges he illegally used a corporate account and credit card to pay for more than $14,000 in groceries and furniture for his personal use, authorities said today.
Johnathon Smith, 37, is the chief operations officer of SERV Behavioral Health, which provides services to adults with severe mental illnesses in Mercer, Hudson, Middlesex, Passaic and Union counties. The private nonprofit is based on Scotch Road.
Smith, of Sicklerville, used SERV's corporate account with a local grocery store and a SERV corporate credit card to purchase groceries and furniture since January 2013, authorities said. Smith's purchases total $14,370, prosecutors said.
Prosecutors from the Economic Crime Unit began investigating Smith two weeks ago, acting on a tip from SERV employees, according to a release.
Smith was charged with one count of third-degree theft by deception and released with a court date, prosecutors said.
Third-degree crimes carry a maximum penalty of five years in state prison and a $15,000 fine.

Thirteen years into the new millennium, you still can't swing a CATV cable without hitting a reality show: Whisker Wars, (a show about facial hair?), Preacher's Daughters (as if we need another show about teenaged sluts), Here Comes Honey Boo Boo (a show about congenital idiots), and amazingly The Kardashians (a show about über-rich Armenians), to name a few.
These shows bill themselves as cutting-edge and genuine, and purportedly offer a glimpse into the lives of those who are doing something you're not.
The problem with all of these "reality" shows is that they're not, repeat, NOT REAL. They're just made-for-TV talent shows that allow folks at home to live vicariously through made-for-TV actors, who eventually go back to their jobs at autograph conventions or dancing at Spearmint Rhino after their Warholian 15 minutes of fame.
Even more alarming is the ever-growing epidemic of penal envy, the lamest of all the Freudian wannabe diseases. This syndrome is characterized by a desire to look like or be like an ex-con, replete with neck tattoos, to give off the aura of a criminal or someone who has done time in jail or prison. Carried to the extreme, sufferers truly want to be incarcerated.
Clueless young kids want their hip-hop stars to be real gangsters, and there was even a time in the annals of rap when rappers were shooting each other and doing time, a la Mystikal, Tupac Shakur, Biggie Smalls, Suge Knight and even that mama's boy Eminem. Howard Stern, as lame an excuse for a man's man as there ever was, says he got tattoos on his back and neck so he'd "have an edgy look, like somebody who's been in prison."
Latino gangbangers in Oxnard and desert skinheads see doing time in jail and prison as a rite of passage, as a place to accumulate "points" to enhance their street reps when they get out. Getting arrested, sentenced and remanded to the VC Main Jail on the way to a prison is no big deal.
In a society gone so completely wrong, what we need now is a firm dose of realty; and right in your own back yard, at the Main Jail at Victoria and Telephone, there's a reality show going on that combines the best of reality and penal envy.
Here are some highlights of the show. The stories are all true, although the names of the characters have been changed:
The only thing worse than having visitors is never having visitors while you're locked up.
Michael cries every time his girlfriend, his kids, his friends and his parents come to visit him in jail. Forget the fact that they're very disappointed in him for being where he is. Forget the fact that he has absolutely no idea what they're (especially his girlfriend) doing on the "outs" ⎯ in the outside world ⎯ while he's locked up.
The real bitch is talking to them through a telephone and a glass window, not being able to touch, not being able to kiss. It breaks his heart, every single time.
He tries not to cry when they leave. There's no crying in jail.
"Teach," a very spiritual Asian dude, tall and lean, meditates every morning and keeps a low profile. He has some good family who keep him supplied with a lot of commissary, or goodies from the jail store. Everyone likes and respects him.
Everyone, that is, except the guy who was stealing his candy. Teach casually mentioned that a lot of his candy was disappearing, and a quiet investigation began. The culprit was quickly discovered — he left wet sneaker prints on the floor near Teach's cell and the shower. He was stealing Teach's stuff when he took a shower.
The Mexicans came to Teach and offered to take care of the thief. Teach demurred, and confronted the guy near the shower.
The Holy Man happens to be a master of Black Tiger Kung Fu, an Asian martial art. A couple of barefooted kicks, a few well-placed hand chops, and the Hispanic guy was begging for mercy. No more problem.
Jail food is bland and predictable, and there's no waiter to take your special order. "Have It Your Way" is not a motto you're likely to hear in the Ventura Jail.
Stanley is a vegetarian, and, believe it or not, there's no vegetarian menu in jail! (He was shocked.) But he does manage to avoid almost all meat in his stay there: He trades coffee — It's decaf anyway — and breakfast meats for bananas and oatmeal in the morning. He trades meat for bread at lunch, and meat for vegetables, dessert, macaroni and cheese and other carbs at dinner. He hears (and hopes like hell it's true) that the hamburgers are actually soy burgers in Ventura County, so he always trades for extras of them, being sure to remind the other cons that the burgers aren't meat anyway.
Stanley jokes that he'll get home, sit down to dinner with his girlfriend's family or go out with a big party to a ritzy restaurant, and begin seriously trading parts of his meal with the other flabbergasted guests at the table.
Stanley unfortunately learns a special dietary rule very quickly: Don't trade food with members of other ethnic groups. He tried that a few times when he sat at the Black table, and got the hairy eyeball from a few of the skinheads at other tables. He had to do it quietly and furtively thereafter.
Poindexter, an older white guy who didn't look like a fighter in any imaginable scenario, got his chow one evening and tried to sit at his regular table. A Latino named Hector took his seat, and told Poindexter to fuck off when asked to relinquish it. Without missing a beat, Poindexter laid into him, spectacles flying, before the Latino kid knew what happened. The fight only lasted a few seconds before the guards broke it up. A brief investigation ensued, and Poindexter and the kid were led to the hole, to multi-ethnic cheers of approval.
This was actually a pretty smart move for a guy who looked like a … well, a Poindexter. Poindexter proved he knew the rules: Never let anybody disrespect you. In the process, Poindexter gained respect. Word followed Poindexter to his next assignment.
Some guys come in and try to assume the nickname they prefer, but that doesn't usually work. Charles tells everyone his nickname name is Ramrod. But because he has really bad teeth ⎯ the tweaker's, or speed freak's, curse — by the end of the day his name is Colgate, and he never shakes it while he's locked u Supporting characters in the VCSD reality show are Keefie D, Buckethead, Booey, Chopper, Dust Bunny (he was a fat slob), Yogi (Dust Bunny's alter ego), Pops (There's always a Pops. Ours was 79), Cornboy, Screwball, Snowball, Gordo and Guero (Chubby and Whitey, in Spanish. There's always a Gordo, too.), Poindexter and, of course, Elvis. (Just kidding about Elvis ⎯ a little joke for those who remember that incredibly cheery and almost gay '50s musical jail flick Jailhouse Rock.)
One of the worst things you can be in jail is a slob. So to survive, Clarence is learning to be incredibly neat and sanitary, even though he was never that way on the outs. One of the things that amazed him from the beginning about jail was how excruciatingly clean veteran inmates are. His cell — and cells don't vary much from institution to institution — consists of a two-bed bunk inside a concrete-walled area approximately 12 by eight feet. His sink and toilet are stainless steel.
Clarence thoroughly cleans ⎯ sweeps and mops the floor, and washes the toilet and sink with pine cleaner ⎯ twice a day, whether or not he thinks it's necessary. If his cellie has been in jail before, odds are that he's been brainwashed into thinking that an obsession with cleanliness is next to manliness, or something like that.
One guy in Stanley's section, Maurice, was "regulated" (beaten down) because he innocently confused the cloth used to clean toilets with the one used to clean tables.
Mopping and sweeping the "Day Room" area (the common area outside of the cells), is the responsibility of the inmates. Somehow this gets done, twice a day, by inmates appointed, usually in cell order, by a de facto leader in the section. How these leaders appear is a mystery to me, and surely would make a great doctoral dissertation in group dynamics. But there is always an alpha male in jail, and it's not always the biggest, strongest or loudest. It probably has to do with serotonin or testosterone or something.
If you ever go to jail, try this: Mop without sweeping; or if you really want to upset a bunch of people, mop and then sweep. I guarantee people will talk about you for weeks, if they don't regulate you.
If you don't shower every day now, you will if you go to jail. While it may be OK to walk around in the real world after a jog or a gym workout, you will be ridiculed and insulted in jail if the slightest trace of sweat is detected on your jailbird body.
It amazing that cons, who sometimes put dirty needles in their arms and often puke after "fixing," are so gung-ho about cleanliness.
In Ventura County, inmates are allowed to go once or twice a week, for a couple of hours, to the rec area on the roof of the jail. They play handball, basketball or just lie around and chill. You might think that a lot of fights happen in the rec yard, since there's usually no guard in attendance, but they are actually infrequent, not very serious.
But why fight? The games themselves are brawls.
Rec yard is not for the faint of heart. The idea is to match muscle and reckless abandon with a bunch of rowdy criminals, most of whom have spent most of their lives getting high and whose athletic skills seem to have been mainly developed running from cops and jumping over walls.
You haven't lived until you've played basketball with a bunch of inmates. Randy calls it full-contact basketball. It's absolutely hilarious. One day of this and Randy feels worse than Kobe after a game in which he shoots 50 foul shots and misses 40.
If Randy escapes rec yard without a broken nose or a bruised shin, he feels very fortunate. The irony is that he will keep coming back again and again, because it's his only chance to get real "exercise," breathe fresh air and see the sun.
Developing a "routine" in jail is important to make the stint as painless as possible. Ray develops a predictable routine, doesn't complain and doesn't explain. Losers do the opposite. They "hard-time" it.
Ray gets up at 5 a.m., eats breakfast, mops and cleans his cell, plays cards, watches Cops, eats lunch at 11, takes a nap, exercises by doing calisthenics in his cell, showers, reads a book or writes a letter or something, watches TV and plays chess, eats dinner at 4:30 p.m., mops and cleans his cell again, reads more of a book, watches more TV, calls home (he can only call collect in Ventura County) and, finally, goes to sleep at 9:30 or 10 pm. It's not a very exciting life, but it's important to get exercise and fool yourself into thinking that you have some control over the situation. A good, solid routine is the first thing an experienced convict settles into.
Daniel is a long-time gang member from La Colonia in Oxnard who happens to be a great artist and, by the way, an expert at doing time. He doesn't do a lot of chores, he always has the same seat at his own table (a very important status symbol in jail), and he always has plenty of "store" or commissary ⎯ also very important.
Dave's secret, besides the fact that his gang affiliation confers a certain amount of jail cachet, lies in the fact that he is an excellent illustrator who knows how to keep himself busy doing "commissioned" works for other prisoners, usually for commissary items, since you're not allowed to have currency in jail.
Daniel does excellent colored pencil work. (Short pencils are the only drawing tools allowed in jail.) His subjects were stylized, smiling-through-the-tears clowns and hoboes, Hispanic ladies, and symbols, logos and tattoo models. On the outs, Daniel is involved in different types of painting, murals, illustrations, sculpture and "street art," and is a recognized Ventura Avenue arts figure.
The ethnic groups tend to stick together in jail. You've got "Esses" or "Vatos" (Hispanics). A Black guy is a "Cuz" or Brother. Whites are Peckerwoods or "Woods." There are Chinos (Asians) and "Others," the official jail term for Polynesians, Indians, Native Americans and such. The rivalries range from good-natured kidding to bloody hostility.
There are reality shows and there is reality. They're actually two different things.
When you're talking about jail, reality sometimes means abstaining from drugs and alcohol and "getting a program." Ninety per cent of the criminals in jail would not be criminals if they cleaned themselves up.
Cons invariably think that "They are out to get me." If you end up in jail, you are out to get you, pure and simple, and you couldn't do a better job if you had walked into the complex at 800 South Victoria Avenue, put on a blue VCSD uniform, and snapped the cuffs on yourself.
Many inmates have to learn that the world is not a hostile place. It's actually a pretty cool place if you just Do the Right Thing. That's Reality with a capital R.
Reality is a special word, and it should not be tossed about lightly.

Something that won't necessarily work: Links that embed the existing username and password combos. It seems like a really good idea to have a centralized login scheme that then sends users off to http://username@passwordtoken:server/internalapp and this works absolutely swimmingly on Firefox and Chrome, but IE won't do it unless you do some registry hacks. Which sucks. So, yeah, my first response was "centralized OpenID thing that manages .htaccess files and funnels users off to URLs that automatically log in to the existing apps", but when I actually tried to implement that...

Who: Theatre 90.
What: "Grease," Book, Music and Lyrics by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey.
Where: New Times Theater, New York State Fairgrounds, Syracuse.
When: July 13th, 2007 at 7:30 p.m. (Performances will continue through August 12th, 2007.)
Duration: Two hours, eighteen minutes; including a 15-minute intermission.
Attendance: Near capacity.
Advisories: A few rude gestures, mentions of pregnancy and sexual matters.
In Brief: Winning 'tune fest' given active performance by young group.
"Grease," the 50's style musical which first appeared in Chicago in 1971, is probably still best remembered in its 1978 film incarnation. That wildly successful movie, which starred John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John, still packs an entertainment punch, as does this lightweight but tuneful set of musical happenings at Rydell High School.
However, the Theater 90 presentation has something going for it which few stage versions of this property - and certainly not the famous movie version - could convincingly muster. Most of the cast here actually seems to be at or near High School age. If this does not necessarily assure the smoothest performance imaginable, it certainly means that there is energy to spare in this production.
Director Holly Wilson keeps most of the action flowing nicely, and Music Director Kathleen Tompkins and a tight, 4-player group makes sure that musical matters are well accomplished.
Although the work is definitely an ensemble piece, the main focus is the love story between Greaser Danny and pure-as-driven-snow transfer student Sandy, here portrayed by Chris Kimpel and Kimberly Panek. Although they don't completely forgo channeling Travolta and Newton-John at odd moments, there are plenty of individual and compelling touches in their portrayals.
Kimpel's regular guy demeanor and well-controlled singing complimented Panek's lovely voice and assured stage manner. Kimpel elevates "Alone at a Drive in Movie" to nearly the same expressive level that Panek achieves in her reflective reprise of "Look at Me, I'm Sandra Dee."
Effective moments abound, mainly in the big ensembles such as "We Go Together," and "Born to Hand Jive," sharply choreographed by Linda Bell and performed with unending vigor by the young cast.
Making positive impressions were Andrew Pollack as Roger, whose dancing and singing in the song "Mooning" far outstripped the quality of the number. Brianna Pierce as Marty was his fine comic foil. Kara Tripoli as Rizzo delivered an affecting "There Are Worse Things I Could Do." Jeanette Reyner's costume design went into delirious high gear for "Beauty School Drop Out."
Sound problems were a constant, however. Not only were balances between instrumental forces, singing ensembles and soloists a bit hard to cut through, but distortion was apparent, as were clanging noises that originated with the sound system. Lighting was at times hit or miss on this first performance night, and many of the transitions in this episodic work took a bit long to bring about.
Still, good spirits and high energy prevailed, and "Grease" holds the boards well, thanks to a winning score that nicely captures the era.

- It's true: a lot of people are in this movie.
That was a question Michael Cieply asked, and tried to answer, yesterday in the Times. Short answer? They're not—the article's own lede admits that this weekend, Julia Roberts stars alone in Eat Pray Love. The star-driven vehicle is far from gone.
But, also this weekend comes The Expendables: the movie's marketing (those subway posters!) may make it seem like the star-studded dream of many an action fan, but in fact it's really just Stallone and Statham with a few other notable actors in bit supporting parts. Forcing a trend, Cieply notes that Scott Pilgrim vs. the World also comes out this weekend, which involves Michael Cera fighting seven ex-boyfriends.
Probably: "'I don't know that anything is changing' in terms of storytelling patterns, said Marc Platt, a producer of the cast-heavy 'Scott Pilgrim,'" Cieply writes.
When I mentioned this article to my girlfriend, she said that Hollywood has always made movies with big casts. Cieply acknowledges this, too: "Group film has had a long, rich history in Hollywood," he writes, citing movies like Grand Hotel through to the overlapping chatterboxes of Robert Altman's oeuvre.
So what's novel here?
Large-cast films could seem slightly suspect [seriously? "slightly suspect"?] in a culture that honored solitary heroes like Gary Cooper ("High Noon") and Steve McQueen ("Bullitt") in stories that put them at odds with the world.
"I don't think the ensemble film has ever quite taken root in America," the film historian David Thomson said by e-mail this week. "It goes too much against the grain of stardom and stories about 'important' people."
Here, Cieply approaches the intriguing meat of his inquiry, though he fails to pursue it. If something about the movies really is changing—beyond "falling star salaries and a declining number of films"—it would mark a notable shift in the country's political outlook. The American Dream requires that individuals be able to effect real change in the world—in their own lives and country—and so the country's legend-making machine, also called "Hollywood," has long produced products that celebrate the fate-mastering individual. We're a capitalist country, not a socialist one!
So, if the movies are now about large groups of people (like The A-Team, conspicuously missing from Cieply's discussion) rather than rugged individuals, does that signal that Americans are ready for an Obama-era of consensus building, nationalized medicine and general groupwork? Or only that the radical wealthy lefties who control the entertainment industry are trying to shove this vision of a communist utopia down our throats?
Or is it all just about television? One of Cieply's sources "theorizes that feature film is reaching toward the complex, multicharacter scenarios that have made hits of sophisticated television series like 'Mad Men' and 'The Sopranos.'" But, again, Cieply comes up short in pursuing this line, so allow me.
In September 2008, I sat in the audience during a panel discussion called "Film Criticism in Crisis?" According to a piece I filed at the time, Emmanuel Burdeau, the editor of Cahiers du Cinema, offered the following insights:
Film's role in the national cultural conversation has largely been replaced by television…[i]n the early days of cinema, he said, lots of people in theaters watched lots of people on the screen. But now all we have are Vin Diesel movies, where a lonely audience member watches a lonely guy.
Television, on the other hand, is a medium that still deals with community, "whether it's a mob family or proletariat black people in Baltimore." Kent Jones agreed, saying a sense of community had disappeared from American screens because of studio executives' fear of needing to please everyone. [Gavin] Smith noted that the traditional boundaries between television and film were being increasingly blurred, evidenced by the fact that a forum on the future of film criticism had spent a large chunk of its time discussing The Wire. (I know that I discussed the last season of The Wire or the final episode of The Sopranos with more people than I've discussed any individual film ever.)
If more movies about groups really are being produced today, perhaps it's because audiences need communities around which to build their own—because Julia Roberts by herself ain't cutting it.

Got my paper done on Friday. Submitted it to the professors for one last review before I make it pretty and submit it for realz. I can't believe it's done!!! And a MONTH early! Can you believe it? The Queen of Procrastination got her thesis done a MONTH early!! :)
Eating was off the hook this weekend. Just as suspected... I'm up 6 lbs. Damned wheat. Will probably work on NK again, but not today. Have white taters for lunch. Who knows, maybe it'll actually be ok to eat them since we can do sweet potatoes with minimal issues.
Thinking about a modified 21 Day Sugar Detox. One that allows berries. But, berries throw off my NK unless I'm super careful, so I'm still up in the air about all this.
Maybe with my new strength program I won't actually need NK and can just eat according to the Carbohydrate Curve. I guess, I'm looking for something a little easier. Back to basics, maybe. But, when I go back to basics, I allow things I shouldn't have - like sugar... lots and lots of sugar.
Obviously, I'm still thinking on this. I'll definitely stick to Primal, but how "strict" I get with it will depend on my love for strawberries... ;)
There is some balance required with "back to basics" or any particular diet-style that one adopts. I am finding that increasing starches is the best way for me to feel full and good overall. If I'm hungry, I try to eat something starchy. It overrides sugar cravings. Pebbles is focusing on making sure she gets enough protein & using amino acids ala. "The Diet Cure", along with NK (that's nutritional ketosis, right?). Your balance may be something else, but I bet you the thing that frees you from sugar cravings or overrides them is the answer!
Congrats on the thesis! :) thats amazing - a whole month early! :) You must be very proud of yourself - as you should be :)
EVIL sugar!!! get it out of your house! :)
I decided, after catching up on the NK thread that I'll go back. I haven't really given it a fair shot b/c I always find myself binging on some crap after about a month - consequently, after I relose all the weight I gained from the last binge... I have a birthday party for my wee girl at the end of the month, but that's my only real obstacle. I think I can bypass the cake if I have another option available - like fruit or something. It'll goof up the NK at that point, but it'll be easy to rebound from, I think. I don't experience the tremendous water weight gain from fruit that I get from wheat. Then again, I could find someplace that'll do a gluten free cake too... For now, I'll plan to make fruit kabobs. :)
Fruit is far better to binge on than cake! Do you have any thoughts about what trips you up after that month? Just the timing of life or some kind of stumbling block? You did so well with that 21-day detox!
It's a timing thing. This weekend was another sugar holiday with a birthday party for my Grandma thrown in. Easter lunch had ZERO gluten free options, with the exception of deviled eggs and fruit kabobs. Even the meat had gluten b/c they coated the baking bags with flour first... *sigh*
I just chose to make poor choices instead of sticking to it. As soon as I finished my paper, I began my binge - Easter candy shoveling commenced. LOTS of Easter candy. I think if I got back to NK and allow honey and maple syrup in recipes, I'll be ok. If things begin to get out of hand again, another detox might be in order. We'll see how I do this month.
Maybe you need to watch [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBnniua6-oM"]this [/URL]again?
I've given up on NK for awhile. It doesn't seem to help me when I'm stressed and just want to say F it all. Lately, I've been incredibly stressed and not sure how I'm going to make it through things.

It turns out that gruntled IS a word. And I'm disgruntled about that.
I intended to write an expose of some of the gaps in the English language. Instead the gap is in my vocabulary, which isn't as meandering as I cogitated.
Years ago when I worked in another newsroom, the wire editor noticed someone was referred to as being uncouth.
We all knew what uncouth was - ''lacking in polish and grace,'' according to Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary.
''But what's 'couth'?'' Ernie asked.
(Yes, that's right, Burt and Ernie sitting across from each other in the same newsroom. Gee, no, we never heard that joke before. How clever of you to think of it. Now can we gress instead of digress from the topic on hand?)
''There's no such word as 'couth,''' Ernie declared.
Twenty years later, I took the trouble of looking it up. Couth IS an actual word. It means ''sophisticated'' and ''polished.'' The etymology dates it to 1896 as the back-formation from uncouth.
So as you're driving down the street today, roll down the window and yell at someone on the sidewalk, ''Hey, buddy! You're nothing but couth! So there!''
See, now that your vocabulary has been expanded, you can sound like you're hurling insults, but if the disgruntled hurlee catches you, you can explain how you were paying him a great compliment - ideally before he knocks the stuffing out of you. That would make you unstuffed. Or destuffed. Possibly disstuffed.
Here's another one: ''You can be overwhelmed and you can be underwhelmed. But can you be whelmed?'' a cousin of mine asked on Facebook.
(No, I am not THAT old. I do know what Facebook is. Please concentrate on gressing.)
I chuckled and added whelm to my list of English words that don't make sense.
Then I looked it up. Yes, you can be just plain whelmed.
It dates back to around 1300 A.D. and means to overturn a thing to cover up something, or to engulf.
My disgruntlement flared again.
Speaking of which, yes, once again, you CAN be just plain gruntled. Gruntle means to put in good humor. Finding out words I thought weren't words actually are words turned me from gruntled to disgruntled. It discombobulated me.
And, there it is! That's the word with the gap in the English language.
Discombobulate means to upset and confuse. I am in a near-perpetual state of discombobulation.
Ergo (I don't know what that means, either, but it shows up in all the scholarly discourses), combob should mean to be orderly.
Instead, according to the etymologists I checked, discombobulate seemed to have been birthed in 1916 or so as a fully formed word without being encumbered with a root.
(Actually, discombobulate sounds like snapping the ol' bean off one of those bobbing head dolls.
And why is a head referred to as a bean? Or noodle, noggin, dome, pate, skull, cranium, hat rack, ...
Why not spaghetti? Why does, ''That's using the ol' meatball'' seem to make sense while we would be left scratching our noodles if someone said, ''That's using the ol' spaghetti.''
But again, we digress. So please, let's gress again. Or would that be regress?)
Anyway, stay couth, stay gruntled, watch out for the whelm and may we all achieve a state of combobulation.

AUBURN, Alabama -- Celebrities took center stage and Auburn coach Tony Barbee debuted his fourth and latest team Friday night at Auburn Arena.
There was more entertainment than basketball at the Tigers' Jungle Jam event, which included appearances by rapper Ludacris, comedian Mike Epps, Auburn legend Charles Barkley and former coach Sonny Smith.
"I loved it," Barbee said. "It's a celebration of Auburn basketball."
First-year player KT Harrell won the Tigers' 3-point contest with 19 treys and sophomore Jordon Granger won the dunk contest with 85 total points.
"It was fun," said Harrell, who sat out last season due to NCAA transfer rules. "A lot of the younger guys were talking a lot of trash going into it."
Auburn conducted a short 10-minute scrimmage with a running clock. Dion Wade and Harrell led the way with 8 points apiece for the White team, which won 18-11. Chris Denson scored the first five points of the scrimmage. Harrell scored eight of the White team's first 11 points and hit two 3-pointers. The Tigers hit five 3-pointers.
"I think we've got good shooters on this team," Harrell said. "I think we're going to shoot the ball a lot better than we did last year, but we don't just have guys who settle for 3-point shooting. We have guys who can get to the rim as well."
Ludacris ended the night with a performance of his 2004 single "Get Back."
Barbee said he put the Jungle Jame event together for the student section and fans. Most of the lower bowl of the arena was full for the free event.
"You all are as important to me as my team," Barbee told the crowd.
Auburn opens the season with an exhibition game against Victory University on Oct. 28. The regular season starts Nov. 8 against Nicholls State.

• The comparative efficacy of propranolol and amitriptyline in the prophylaxis of migraine headache was studied in 30 patients in a double-blind, placebocontrolled, crossover design. Headache response to medication was measured monthly by compilation of headache scores derived from quantitative data recorded by patients in a daily diary; at each visit, Zung and Hamilton tests for depression and the Spielberger state test for anxiety were performed. In the absence of clinical toxicity at monthly visits, the decision to maintain the current dose or raise it was made by a computer, which compared current headache score with that of the previous month. Both drugs were superior to placebo. Neither drug was superior to the other. The effectiveness of neither drug correlated with a decrease in anxiety or depression demonstrated by psychological testing.

The energy management field is evolving, expanding, and exciting. Do you want to join this exciting industry?
This month, I want to explain some of the most common job types I've encountered in seminars I teach throughout North America. For each job, it is important to understand the primary tasks it entails, as well as its pros and cons. Although my perception is based on discussions with attendees, hopefully it represents the overall happenings and opportunities in industry.
There are an endless number of "hybrid" positions available – jobs that are spawned to meet new and different demands. Most of these opportunities are related to specific buildings and assets, so there is little chance of the positions being outsourced to another country.
Traditional energy management skills can be applied in many different jobs at energy-consuming organizations, research operations, or energy service companies (ESCOs). These areas include:
