Sony developing upmarket Qualia range
Monday December 15, 2003
Sony is developing an upmarket brand in Japan, using its world-leading R&D to bring advanced products to market earlier than they would for more price-sensitive consumer products.
Only four products have been released - the Qualia 004 (a digital projector), the 007 (an audio system), 015 (a 36-inch color monitor), and the Qualia 016, (a digital camera). They are sold in boutique stores in Tokyo and Osaka which are staffed by 'concierges'.
The premium nature of the brand is exemplified by the 016, which is 69.116.824mm in size and weighs 50g. To ensure the crispest of images, it takes 4 pics in rapid succession and then combines them into one two megapixel image. It has a built-in .55' TFT, 4x digital zoom, and a MemoryStick to store pics.
The 016 comes in its own briefaces with a flash unit, remote timer, video out unit, telephoto lens, wide angle lens, and battery charger.
The pricetag is equally upmarket - a staggering A$5400.

Peering can indeed cause massive problems, including that 24-hour spiral
of doom.
That particular problem is caused by having a number of peers all at
the same local-clock stratum. If one of them is put at a lower stratum
than the others, they will follow it instead of their own clocks. If it
dies, they will descend into the spiral after all, however, the same
solution applies. The end result is a staggered local-clock layout
with e.g. peer A at stratum 8, B at 10, C at 12, and D at 14.
Tom proposes a directional circle of servers instead of a fully-connected
mesh. Both serve the same purpose: if one of the servers loses all of its
own external references, it can 'borrow' those of a neighbour. In the mesh,
all neighbours are always eligible, and a peer will only ever fall one
stratum as long as any outside references are left anywhere. In the circle,
_if_ internal hosts are also failing, it may take more indirections or the
network may even become partitioned.

Hit-and-run wreck dents driver's sanity
Never mind a dime. Buddy, can you spare a $500 bill?
Relax, I'm just kidding. I know no one has that kind of extra money, especially me. Not with two daughters in college, and Elton John tickets in my hands.
But $500 is the amount of the deductible on my car insurance, which is why my Dodge Neon looks like a Dodge Dent with a bad bruise. Despite its name, it couldn't dodge the person who hit-and-ran us.
Fixing a smooshed-in, slowly rusting passenger door isn't my highest priority, not when I don't have the cash and it wasn't my fault.
Neon probably has an inferiority complex, anyhow. It's small, like I was growing up, the car equivalent of a picked-on pimply freshman. Hummers and SUVs mock as they idle next to Neon at red lights.
"Wow, how many AA batteries do you have under that hood?" "Timmy called; he wants his Matchbox back." "Are you Dodge Neon or Knee High?"
This was the second time the Neon was hit. Both times were by impatient cars scooting onto Peach Street. The first time, my daughter was driving. The driver who hit her took off. Never stopped to check out the damage. Never stopped to see if she was shaken up, which she was.
This time was worse. The driver pulled out in front of a Coke truck and into oncoming traffic. I caught a glimpse at the last second, and swerved just enough so she hit the rear passenger door, instead of the front, where my daughter was sitting.
We pulled over. She did not. Though we got a partial license plate number and the color of the car, that was that. Denting a Dodge is not a high police priority.
So Neon is out of luck, a victim of street crime. It's bad enough when Erie drivers zoom through red lights, yak on their cell phones and knit sweaters. Now they hit you and drive away.
Does anyone sell insanity insurance?

Sheriff's office seeks help finding forger
The Kitsap County Sheriffs Office is requesting the assistance of local residents in identifying the person depicted in the accompanying photograph, taken from bank surveillance cameras.
According to the sheriffs office, the suspect forged several checks totaling nearly $11,000 from July 29 to 31 of last year at several Bank of America branches throughout the Kitsap County and the surrounding areas, including Port Orchard, Silverdale, Bremerton and Gig Harbor.
The suspect cashed the checks using fraudulent identification with the victims name and checking account number.
The suspect is described as a dark-skinned male, 30-35 years of age, of unknown race with long, dark hair which appears to be pulled back and is thinning on top.
He is of average height, has a heavy build and wears a goatee. He is left-handed.
Anyone who can identify this person, or who has information about him or the forgeries, is asked to contact Sheriffs Detective Tim Keeler at (360) 337-4825.

Package: debian-installer
Version: daily build 16th Sep
Severity: normal
I have a machine that had been used in a Linux Software RAID-1
configuration with LVM running on top of the RAID. The Debian Installer
recognised the LVM devices which in most cases is a good thing.
But having LVM enabled it was unable to cease all kernel access to the
partitions for the purpose of getting the kernel to recognise the new
partitions I created (I decided I wanted a slightly different RAID
installation for the rebuild).
So when it gave errors about being unable to get the kernel to recognise
the devices I rebooted and then it recognised the devices and allowed me
to create a new software RAID installation.

As a TV journalist, John Holliman courted danger all over the world. In 1986, while covering Hurricane Charley in Maryland, he called his wife, Dianne, from a flooded hotel to assure her he was okay, then interrupted himself: "Oh, my God, there goes a phone booth!" Five years later, Holliman was hunkered down in a Baghdad hotel room with CNN colleagues Peter Arnett and Bernard Shaw while U.S. missiles and Iraqi artillery exploded overhead. "Holy cow! It's like the Fourth of July!" Arnett recalls him shouting during one of the trio's broadcasts. "He was Mr. Enthusiasm," adds Arnett, "the happy warrior of CNN."
So it was what Walter Cronkite calls "a terribly cruel travesty of fate" that Holliman, 49, should die so violently—in a head-on collision Sept. 12—just two miles from the suburban Atlanta house he shared with Dianne, 50, his third wife, and their son Jay, 5. Holliman's errand that Saturday—to buy maple syrup for his boy's waffles—was as prosaic as his career was adventurous. "The principal thing that makes any good reporter is curiosity," says Cronkite (who was to coanchor John Glenn's space flight next month with Holliman), "and John had it to the nth degree."
Growing up in Thomaston, Ga., the older of two sons of John, a lawyer, and his wife, Arva, Holliman "was a newshound from the word go," recalls Arva, 77. At 14, he was announcing Little League games on radio, and he went on to earn a B.A. in journalism at the University of Georgia. In 1980, Holliman became one of the first reporters at CNN, where his enthusiasm proved contagious. "Whenever they'd say, 'You have to go here, and Holliman's going with you,' I'd say, 'Great!' " says CNN's Wolf Blitzer. "I knew we'd have a good time."

Terminal (in Applications/ Utilities) gives you direct access to the UNIX system that underpins OS X. By typing specific commands into your Terminal window, you can make changes, open settings or access features that aren't available by any other means.
After typing one of the commands offered in this tutorial, press Return to activate it, and anything offered in quotes is typed without the quote marks themselves.
Commands split over two or more lines here should be typed in their entirety – you don't press Return halfway through. And bear in mind that some commands are case-sensitive, so be true to what's here.
One final word of warning: all the tips in this article have been thoroughly tested, but experimenting with the Terminal is not a task to be undertaken lightly. Do not try to modify or adapt these hacks unless you really know what you're doing.
01. i… Robot
Your Mac can talk to you. Using a robotic voice reminiscent of a 50s sci-fi flick, it can ask after your health, tell you a joke or say anything else you care to type. It's a simple trick.
Just open the Terminal application (found in Applications > Utilities), enter:
say MacFormat
…And the Terminal robot utters the name of MacFormat magazine. Obviously it doesn't have to be MacFormat – type anything you like. Give it a go, it's fun.
02. Back up at will
By default, Time Machine backups take place every hour, but you can change this through Terminal. To make it back up every half an hour instead, simply type:
sudo defaults write /System/Library/Launch Daemons/com.apple.backupd-auto StartInterval -int 1800
The '1800' at the end of this command is half an hour, expressed in seconds. You can change this figure to suit: for example, to back up once an hour again, replace it with '3600', for two-hour backups, '7200'.
Always remember to be especially careful with commands that begin 'sudo'. These are system-level commands that can cause huge problems if misused, which is why you're asked for your administrator's password the first time you try one.
03. Logon greetings
Another sudo – and therefore dangerous – command that enables you to add a message to the login screen. In Terminal, type:
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow LoginwindowText "Your Message"
Replace 'Your Message' with whatever it is you want to display, of course, but be careful with your punctuation. Some characters (exclamation marks, for instance) stop the command from working.
To remove the message, type:
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow LoginwindowText ""
04. Play games in the Terminal
As you may know, OS X is UNIX based. Emacs, a text editor, forms part of the UNIX system, and it contains some Easter egg games, including the ever-popular Tetris, Pong and Snake.
First you must find your Emacs version number. In the Terminal, type cd /usr/share/emacs/ And press Return. Now type 'ls' and press Return again. You're given your Emacs version number (1.21, for instance). Now, write it down.
Then enter the following:
ls /usr/share/emacs/[VERSION]/lisp/ play
Replace [VERSION] with the number obtained earlier. You get a directory of all the available games. Make a note, or take a screenshot.
Now switch to Emacs through Terminal by simply typing 'emacs'. To access the games, press Esc then x and type the name of the game you wish to play, before pressing Return.
You can switch to the next game by pressing Esc then x and the name of the next game you wish to try. Have fun!
05. Fix window sizes in FFView
01. Resize problem
FFView is a great sequential image viewer, but its Page width Mode resizes its window every time you turn to the next image. This is very annoying if you want to set – and stick to – your own window size. What to do?
02. Resize resolution
Terminal solves the problem. Type:
defaults write com.feedface.ffview udn_dont_resize_img_ win 1
The window now remains a constant size. To reverse this, enter the code again, replacing the '1' at the end with '0'. Now restart the app.
03. Want comics?
There's a wealth of downloadable free comics available on the web. For example, mobile comic publisher Robot Comics offers a list of high-quality, free-to-download material suitable for reading on your Mac with FFView. Check it out here.
06. Get a massive Dock
If you want giant-sized magnified Dock icons, enable Magnification in System Preferences > Dock, and in Terminal type:
defaults write com.apple.dock largesize -int 512; killall Dock
This increases their maximum size to 512x512 pixels. You can substitute another figure if you wish, but don't go any higher than 512. To switch this effect off, just return to the Dock's preferences and move the Magnification slider back.
07. Hybrid Dock folders
For a different version of a Dock folder or Stack's List option, type:
defaults write com.apple.dock use-new-liststack -boolean YES; killall Dock
This gives you an interesting hybrid of the List and Grid viewing options. Your List view icons are bigger, and if there are more items than fits the window, you can scroll through them in the same way as you would in Grid view.
Also like Grid view, clicking on a folder now opens it within the Stack. If you find you don't like these changes, type the command again, replacing 'YES' with 'NO'.
08. Inspect the web
Safari's Web Inspector offers a great deal of detail about web pages, and it's invaluable for serious web developers. You can activate it using Safari's Debug Menu outlined elsewhere in this tutorial, but if you only want the Web Inspector, type:
defaults write com.apple.Safari WebKit DeveloperExtras -bool true
After restarting Safari, you can now access the Web Inspector by right-clicking on a web page and selecting it from the contextual menu.
As you might guess, you can deactivate this feature by repeating the command, but replacing 'true' with 'false' at the end and restarting Safari once more.
09. Debug iCal
Like many OS X applications, iCal has a Debug Mode that can be activated through Terminal. Type:
defaults write com.apple.iCal IncludeDebugMenu YES
A new menu bar pull-down titled Debug appears. You can hide it again by repeating the code but replacing 'YES' with 'NO'; note that iCal must be restarted for changes to take effect.
10. Debug Address Book
Address Book also has a hidden debug menu. To enable it, type:
defaults write com.apple.addressbook ABShow DebugMenu -bool YES
The Debug pull-down appears in the menu bar. To disable it again, repeat the command and replace 'YES' with 'NO' at the end. The application must be closed and restarted for these commands to take effect.
11. Enable Safari debug menu
To enable a debug menu in Safari 4, type; defaults write com.apple. safari IncludeInternalDebug Menu 1 Quit Safari and restart it for the hack to take effect, giving you an extra menu bar pulldown labelled Debug.
To get rid of it again, repeat the command, replacing the '1' at the end with '0'. A restart is again required.
12. Enable x-ray folders in Quick Look
01. Folders can look dreary
If you highlight a file in Finder and press [Space] or click on the eye-like icon in the toolbar, you activate Quick Look, giving you information about the item in question and possibly a preview of the file. Folders look pretty dull in Quick Look, as you can see here.
02. See through the veil
Fortunately, there is a way to spice up your folder viewing experience, and Terminal is the source: to make Quick Look give you an x-ray image of a folder, simply type:
defaults write com.apple.finder QLEnableXRayFolders -boolean YES
03. X-ray vision is yours
Quick Look now offers an x-ray view of a folder, with an icon that shows you what's inside it. To disable this feature once more, type the code offered in step two again, replacing 'YES' with 'NO'. Quick Look folders are returned to their former state, with no x-ray view.
13. Translucent icons
To turn the Dock icons translucent for applications that are open but hidden, type;
defaults write com.apple. Dock showhidden -bool YES; killall Dock
Repeat the command, replacing 'YES' with 'NO' to disable this feature once more. Icons for applications that are already hidden when you activate this feature will not appear translucent unless you Show and then Hide them again.
14. Recently used
This somewhat intimidating code introduces a new Stack into your Dock, showing a list of your recently used applications:
defaults write com.apple.dock persistent-others -array-add '{ "tile-data" = { "list-type" = 1; }; "tile-type" = "recents-tile"; }'; killall Dock
Type it carefully. It's a really useful feature. When the new Stack is in your Dock, you can right-click on it and change it from showing Recent Applications to Recent Documents, Recent Servers, Favourite Volumes or Favourite Items.
It can be displayed in Fan, Grid or List View, just like a regular stack. If you want to get rid of it again, just drag it out of the Dock.
15. Expose your Dock
By default, clicking and holding on the Dock icon for an active application in Snow Leopard activates Dashboard Exposé, showing all of that application's currently-open windows. In Leopard, of course, this gave you a contextual menu; that's something you can access in both operating systems by right-clicking on the icon in question.
If you're running Snow Leopard but prefer Leopard's way of doing things, type the following Terminal command:
defaults write com.apple.dock show-exposemenus -boolean no; killall Dock
Repeating the command with 'YES' instead of 'NO' returns your Dock's Exposé functions to normal.
16. Grid view highlights
If you open a Stack in Grid view, you can navigate through its enclosures using your keyboard's arrow keys, with the currently selected icon highlighted by a grey gradient box. However, if you drag your mouse pointer over the Grid, no such highlighting appears – unless you use this Terminal command:
defaults write com.apple.dock mouse-over-hilitestack -boolean YES; killall Dock
You now get the same grey background box during mouse-overs as you do when navigating through the Grid using the keyboard. Replace 'YES' with 'NO' to switch this off again, though we doubt you'll want to.
17. Dock the gloss
If you're not too keen on the 3D Dock, with its shiny glass finish showing reflections of the application icons, use this tip to switch to something a little simpler:
defaults write com.apple.dock no-glass -boolean YES; killall Dock
Your Dock background is now a much plainer translucent black design with a thin white outline. Icons are no longer reflected in the Dock, and open applications are indicated by a white dot instead of a blue floodlight.
If you decide you prefer the 3D look after all you can repeat the command substituting 'NO' for 'YES', so you've nothing to lose by giving it a go.
18. Search your music
When you highlight a track in your iTunes library, you get a right-facing arrow in a circle. Clicking on this searches the iTunes Store for similar material. However, using this Terminal input, you can get it to search your library instead:
defaults write com.apple.iTunes invertStore Links -bool YES
Restart iTunes to activate it, and repeat the command with 'NO' replacing 'YES' to switch things back to their default behaviour.
19. Drag Dashboard widgets onto your Desktop
One of the most interesting Terminal tips enables you to drag your widgets out of the Dashboard and onto the Desktop, where they float above open applications and Finder windows akin to the 'Gadgets' in Windows Vista's Sidebar. To activate it, type:
defaults write com.apple.dashboard devmode YES
You must then log out and back in again, or restart your machine. You can now capture a widget by clicking and holding it, and pressing F12 to dismiss the Dashboard and drop it on your desktop.
By capturing a widget that's on your desktop and pressing F12, you can return it to your Dashboard too. Widgets placed on the Desktop function just like they do on the Dashboard.
To disable this feature, repeat the code simply replacing 'YES' with 'NO'. Again, you must log out and in again or restart your machine for the change to take effect, after which widgets that are already on the desktop can be returned to the Dashboard, but there they must remain.
20. Expanded Save view
The Save command brings up a dialog window, enabling you to choose a title, where your document will save to and possibly the format in which it will be saved, depending on the application in question.
Next to the title, there's a blue button with a triangle pointing down. Pressing this expands the dialog window, giving it a similar format to a Finder window. If you want this window to appear in its expanded form by default, type:
defaults write -g NSNavPanelExpandedState ForSaveMode -bool TRUE
If needed, just replace 'TRUE' with 'FALSE' to revert to how things were.
21. Faster Screen Sharing
MobileMe's Screen Sharing facility is an excellent feature, but depending on your internet connection, it can be very sluggish. Thankfully, there's an easy way of speeding it up by using a Terminal command to reduce the image quality of the shared screen:
defaults write com.apple.ScreenSharing controlObserveQuality 1
This reduces the screen to its lowest possible quality setting, giving you a black and white image. You can replace the '1' at the end of the command with the numbers '2' to '5', offering progressively higher quality screens. '2' gives a greyscale image, '3' offers eight-bit colour, '4' is 16-bit colour and '5' takes you back to full colour, the default setting.
22. Screenshot names
If you capture a screenshot in Snow Leopard, it's automatically titled 'Screen shot', followed by a date and time. You can change this using a Terminal command:
defaults write com.apple.screencapture name "Anything you like"; killall SystemUIServer
Simply change 'Anything you like' to whatever it is you wish to call the screens you capture – the date and time remain unchanged. To go back to the default, simply use this command with 'Anything you like' replaced by 'Screen shot'.
23. Reveal hidden files
There are several applications that let you look at OS X's hidden files, such as resource forks, but there's also a very simple command you can employ from the Terminal:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAll Files TRUE; killall Finder
Be careful with this one. Those files are hidden for a reason, and while it's interesting to see what's there, don't fiddle with them unless you know what you're doing. To turn off this feature, repeat the command replacing 'TRUE' with 'FALSE'.
24. Copy, Gold Leader!
This must be the strangest Terminal command ever. Go on, type:
telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl
You're treated to the Star Wars movie, retold in ASCII art. Wait for the prefilm credits to end, and make sure you don't resize the Terminal window, or the graphics won't format properly.
25. Quit Finder like any other app
With this handy command, you can quit out of Finder in the same way you would any other app:
defaults write com.apple.finder QuitMenuItem -bool YES; killall Finder
A Quit option now appears at the foot of the Finder menu. To remove it, enter the code again, replacing 'YES' with 'NO'.

The Top Foods to Stockpile Now in Case of an Emergency
Hurricane Sandy spawned many articles in publications such as the New York Times and Time Magazine that discussed the "Sandy 5," a term dubbed by the New York Times that refers to the five-pound weight gain many in the New York/New Jersey area faced in the wake of the storm. But, with proper planning, could many residents have avoided the "Sandy 5?" We say YES with these simple tips that can be applied in any disaster, emergency or snow day.
Weight gain and power outages go hand-in-hand — but they don't have to!
After Hurricane Sandy had passed, the multi-day power outages left many feeling bored and anxious, prompting them to abandon their exercise routines and reach for whatever non-perishable junk food they had around the house. Others hit any convenience store they could find in hopes of locating some comfort snack food (read: junk food). One NYC resident told Time, "I went through Duane Reade and was grabbing Double Stuf Oreos, whole milk, Twix, Twizzlers [and] Sour Patch Kids." Clearly this does not represent a healthy approach to an emergency situation, but there's a few easy solutions to ensure you're never roaming the convenience store in desperate search of processed sugars and high-calorie foods, all the while not being active enough to burn any of it.
If people stored healthier foods (in an emergency bin), stuck to regular meal times and incorporated some physical activity into their schedules, much of this weight gain frenzy can be avoided in the future.
Get an emergency food bin.
It can be one you buy and fill yourself, or you can find suppliers that deliver a ready-to-store bin of organic foods. Filling your bin with the intent of having structured meals is optimal. If you don't plan on having structured meals, you will likely end up snacking the entire day and eating mindless, empty calories out of boredom and frustration. Additionally, setting up regular meal times can help you stick to a routine similar to your everyday life, which can help keep you calm and sane when everything else seems to be out of your control.
A healthy meal should include protein, grains or starches, fruits and vegetables. When filling a bin yourself, below is a list of some products that are shelf-stable, healthy and fulfill each of these food categories.
Search for items such as roasted edamame, nuts (almonds, walnuts and cashews are great options), canned tuna, canned chicken, organic protein bars, high protein cereals and canned beans (I like garbanzo beans, or chickpeas.)
Whole Grains and Starches:
It's best to stock up on high fiber crackers, high fiber cereals and bars, organic bread, baked or popped potato chips, and pretzels. Many with a gas stove option are also urged to store brown rice, quinoa and other nutrient dense grains.
Be sure to have some canned or jarred fruit (packed in water or light syrup) on hand as well as organic freeze dried fruit snacks, jarred and pureed fruit (yes, even baby food), apple sauce cups, craisins, raisins, and other packaged dried fruit. If you're feeling ambitious you can even try to can many of these items yourself! Just be sure to note their expiration date so that you can replace them if they go unused.
Hit your organic grocery store and fill your reusable bag with easy-to-store dehydrated vegetables such as snap peas and carrots. You can also find canned vegetables that will do the trick in a pinch such as hearts of palm, baby corn, green beans, carrots, beets, pickles, and corn. Out of habit, we tend to heat these items before serving because they're just more enjoyable when hot, but many of them don't require cooking and can be eaten straight from the BPA-free can or jar. Also, jarred salsa, roasted red peppers, olives and artichoke hearts pack tons of nutrients and are excellent on crackers or by themselves.
Shelf stable milk is available if it's something you'd like to keep on hand. Varieties such as unsweetened almond milk, soy milk and traditional milk can be purchased in single-serving containers to help extend their shelf life. Organic Valley offers packs of 24-single serving cartons which are always great to have on hand.
A bit of a luxury in a crisis, single size packages of ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, hot sauce, salad dressing can help flavor stored foods that might otherwise be boring and without flavor. Keeping these on hand can definitely help reduce the number of times you're tempted to hit the convenience store for junk food. All of your other pantry condiments such as spices, herbs, oils, vinegars, honey and soy sauce should be fine.
Quick Tip
When buying healthier, shelf-stable food items to store in your home in the event of an emergency, keep in mind that you want to buy single-size packaged items. Although these items might be a bit pricier, they will help you to keep track of portion sizes and will also keep the food fresher. For example, I would recommend buying an economy-size supply of 100-calorie packs of pretzels, that way you aren't opening a large bag of pretzels on day one and finding them to be stale by day three or four. Another good idea is to store 5-10 zip lock baggies so that you can save certain foods should you open them and not finish them.
Water is the most important thing to have in your emergency supply. There is a long-standing theory that one can go 3 days without water and 3 weeks without food, but this rule-of-thumb can vary depending on your body size, body composition, and how frequently you urinate, cry and sweat. Given the anxiety left from a power outage and life-threatening storm, I would think you would be crying and sweating quite a bit. Water is essential to life and you can never have too much. You can prepare for this by stocking up your pantry with water bottles and by getting a powerful water purifier that can turn water from anywhere (including your toilet bowl) into clean and healthy drinking water! Companies such as Camelback and Brita make wonderful water purifiers.
You also want to make sure that you are keeping active and that eating isn't your main form of entertainment. If you want to maintain an exercise regime, print out exercise moves from magazines and online blogs (such as self.com and ilana4health.com) and try to do at least 30 minutes of exercise each day. Squats, lunges, push-ups, sit ups, jumping jacks, and yoga stretches and poses are just a few suggestions to get you started. Other activities include arts and crafts, puzzles, board games, charades and painting your fingernails.
I hope all of this information helps you prepare for a safe and healthy future!

Arizona Legal Studies Discussion Paper No. 12-30
This symposium paper explores the empirical evidence regarding the impact of financial relationships on the behavior of health care providers, specifically, physicians. We identify and synthesize peer-reviewed data addressing whether financial incentives are causally related to patient outcomes and health care costs. We cover three main areas where financial conflicts of interest arise and may have an observable relationship to health care practices: physicians' roles as self-referrers, insurance reimbursement schemes that create incentives for certain clinical choices over others, and financial relationships between physicians and the drug and device industries. We found a well-developed scientific literature consisting of dozens of empirical studies, some that allow stronger causal inferences than others, but which altogether show that such financial conflicts of interests can, and sometimes do, impact physicians' clinical decisions. Further research is warranted to document the causal relationship of such changes on health outcomes and the cost of care, but the current base of evidence is sufficiently robust to motivate policy reform.

YOUNGSTOWN - Speakers at a state EPA hearing on a draft permit for an expansion for V&M Star Steel on Feb. 12 urged the agency to fast-track the issue.
''What these folks (V&M) are trying to do is a wonderful thing,'' said Joseph Planey of Youngstown, who said he remembers when steel was king in the Mahoning Valley. ''I think the EPA should do whatever they can to facilitate and fast track them and help them achieve what they want to achieve. I think it's a good, positive thing for this Valley.''
Don Crane, head of the Western Reserve Building and Trades Council, also urged the EPA to approve the permit as quickly as possible.
''We support this project,'' Crane said.
Crane and Planey were the only two people who spoke about the permit. About 20 people attended the hearing.
The state EPA granted a draft permit to V&M in January. After comments are reviewed, EPA officials will review them before making a final decision, which is expected to take a couple of months.
Ed Perez of the state EPA's Twinsburg office explained the process for the permit, which is needed because the company plans to increase its liquid steel output from 830,000 tons a year to 1.4 million tons because of their expansion.
Perez said the EPA will require V&M to conduct their own reports and tests on site and the EPA will also perform some inspections. The EPA and the Mahoning-Trumbull Air Pollution Control Agency will monitor the site and investigate any complaints, Perez said.
V&M, on the site of the former Sheet & Tube Brier Hill Works, makes seamless pipe for the energy industry. The proposed expansion could bring up to an additional 500 jobs at the plant and support industries throughout the region.
V&M officials have been mum about their plans, but they appear to be expanding to take advantage of high energy prices, which fuels a demand for their product.
Perez said the permit covers emissions for some new equipment and existing equipment, such as furnaces, cooling towers and paved and unpaved roads.
The land straddles Youngs-town and Girard, and officials in both communities have been working on a Joint Economic Development District. Youngstown has also agreed to purchase two pieces of property in Girard for the project that are needed for the expansion.

Dileepa ignites Sinhala Creativity at SPAACS
A workshop titled "Apata Nopenena Lokaya saha Thavath Valpal" - A forgotten method to come up with ideas – was conducted by veteran ad guru Dileepa Abeysekera last Saturday and was attended by members from Grant McCann, Triad, Holmes Pollard, Sarva Integrated and Adwatch.
A well known ad personality renown for his 'local touch' in advertising, Dileepa has many awards to his name. Beginning his advertising career at Phoenix O&M, he later moved on to LOWE Lintas and JWT, after which he launched his own advertising agency, Heensare, where he currently functions as CEO.
A creative legend, Dileepa's workshop focused on finding insights in unusual places. As is obvious by his stellar work, he strongly believes that in insight lays the key to creativity and hence great advertising. His knowledge was shared by an eager audience from many walks of life, and they all undoubtedly walked away with a new perspective on generating ideas through creative insight.

Now that North Carolina's season is over, it's time to start looking ahead to 2013-14. And the biggest question mark floating over Chapel Hill now is about the Tar Heels' three NBA prospects.
Will P.J. Hairston, Reggie Bullock and James Michael McAdoo stay or go?
Nobody is ready to give an answer at this time, which should be expected. They are all waiting to have a sit-down with head coach Roy Williams before they make their decisions public.
If the entire Triangle Trio leaves in another mass exodus, it could be just as crushing to the program as last season. Last year it was one senior, one junior and two sophomore starters that left, and it would be exactly the same this year with Dexter Strickland, Reggie Bullock, P.J. Hairston and James Michael McAdoo.
Unfortunately, we have no control over what these players do. You can't blame any of them for wanting to take the next step in their careers.
So the real question is: Should the Tar Heels' prospects stay or go?
All quotes were obtained from Andrew Carter of the News & Observer.

TRENTON — A witness who was running to get away from the scene testified he saw Patrick "Taz" McFarlane chase Richard Mason and shoot him three times, as McFarlane's trial got underway yesterday.
McFarlane, 24, of Trenton, is accused of robbing and killing Mason after raiding a dice game in May 2008.
McFarlane faces charges murder and armed robbery during his trial before Superior Court Judge Robert Billmeier this week.
The witness, whose name is being withheld at the request of the prosecution, testified yesterday that Mason, a 44-year-old construction worker with a wife and kids, was playing a game of dice in a group of more than 10 people in front of a house on Kirkbride Avenue before dusk.
About 15 to 30 minutes after the witness arrived, he said, he saw two men wearing hoodies walking toward the group, but did not immediately react. He recognized McFarlane as one of the two men.
When the men reached them, McFarlane said, "nobody move," and after a moment pulled out a gun, the witness said.
The group "didn't run as soon as he said it; when the gun come out, everybody scurried off," the witness said.
McFarlane, whose face was not covered, pulled out a chrome revolver, the witness said, and the group took off in different directions, with Mason taking off across New Willow Street.
As he was running, the witness saw in the side of his vision that McFarlane was chasing after Mason. Then he saw, and heard, the first shot. He said he was startled by it and dropped his keys.
When he turned around to pick them up, the witness said, he saw the two men robbing Mason and saw him get shot again.
Mason was clearly robbed of the cash he was holding in his hand from the dice game, the witness said, but he could not tell what McFarlane and Roderik Armstrong took off of his body.
The prosecution then focused on the teardrop tattoo that McFarlane had on his cheek. They asked the witness, who grew up in Trenton, what he thought it meant.
The witness said people usually got them either because somebody in their family died or because they killed somebody, but that obviously anyone could get one for another reason if they wanted to.
Then the prosecution asked the witness why he thought McFarlane got the teardrop tattoo.
"He killed somebody," the witness said.
Before the witness took the stand, Assistant Prosecutor Jim Scott presented the evidence for the case, including the dice from the game that McFarlane allegedly raided and two T-shirts that were blood stained and cut open.
Mason was wearing both of them on the day of the crime, Scott said, and they were cut open as medical personnel attempted to save his life.
Mason was suffering from his gunshot wounds as a liter of blood pooled in his chest, Scott said.

Adapting to Evolving Business Environments Is...
As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
Quadruple Helices Appear To Have Role...
Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
There has been a substantial amount of attention paid in recent months to the issue of making information on clinical studies of marketed pharmaceuticals publicly available.
The original catalyst was a highly publicized settlement of fraud charges between New York state and GlaxoSmithKline (Middlesex, U.K.), which involved Glaxos alleged selective publication of studies involving the use of its antidepressant, Paxil, in a manner that obscured data showing an increased tendency for patients in younger age groups to demonstrate suicide-linked behaviors.
Following that settlement, a similar one was reached shortly afterward by New York with Forest Laboratories (New York City), regarding alleged off-label uses of its antidepressant drugs Lexapro and Celexa.
Both companies agreed as part of their respective settlements to publish online registries of studies involving their drugs. The publicity surrounding these settlements quickly evolved into the more global issue of the publication of negative drug studies in general.
Interest in what was a fairly newsworthy issue in its own right, however, became quickly eclipsed by Mercks announcement to remove from the market its huge-selling COX-2 anti-inflammatory drug, Vioxx, due to clinical trial results showing a significantly high rate of associated cardiovascular events following long term use.
In light of a decades long environment in which approval times of drugs have been under intense pressure to be shortened, these episodes generated interest in the issue of whether safety-related results of clinical drug trials are getting appropriate exposure and interpretation.
Remedies for this perceived problem have taken several forms, the most conspicuous are recommendations for the creation of registries of planned, ongoing, and completed clinical drug trials. Prominent medical journals have announced a plan that would require the registration of all effectiveness studies at their inception beginning in mid-2005 as a condition for the results of those studies to be published when completed.
In addition, certain legislators, notably Senator Charles Grassley of IA, announced plans to introduce federal legislation for a web-based registry. Moreover, a representative of the New York Attorney Generals office announced recently that further investigations can be expected.
Pharmaceutical companies have introduced their own voluntary registries. In addition to Glaxo and Forest, Eli Lilly, Pfizer, Bristol-Myers Squibb, and AstraZeneca, as well as the drug industry association PhRMA, have all begun some sort of voluntary, web-based public drug study registry. Even the FDA has been said to ensure that lists of trials it reports on the existing government website are more comprehensive than before.
The publicity surrounding the issue has led to questions regarding what the present requirements, if any, for the listing of drug studies are. Some confusion was generated by an FDA reaction at the time of the Glaxo settlement, suggesting that requirements for the public listing of such trials were already in effect.
The truth is, as a general matter, they are not, though there are some existing requirements that apply to a more limited universe of studies. Enforcement of these requirements to date, however, has been limited, if not nonexistent. What follows is a brief discussion of the history and nature of these requirements.
Section 113 of the FDA Modernization Act of 1997 (codified at 28 USC 282) required the Department of Health and Human Services to establish a data bank of clinical trials for effectiveness of drugs for serious or life threatening diseases or conditions.
Paraphrasing the statute somewhat, the data bank is required to include a registry of clinical trials of experimental treatments, providing a description of the purpose of the experimental drug, when the trial begins, eligibility information, trial sites, a point of contact, and other information.
Similar information is required for treatment INDs for similar types of drugs and Group C cancer drugs. The criteria for determining whether a disease or condition was serious or life threatening was defined by FDA regulations (21 CFR 312.81), a principal purpose of which was for determining whether drugs are eligible for certain expedited or fast track review procedures.
The fairly obvious purpose of this statutory section is to advise members of the public about the existence of planned or ongoing clinical trials for serious or life-threatening diseases in order that they may be aware of them, and to facilitate enrollment when appropriate. This is quite evident from the registry itself, which is found at www.clinicaltrials.gov. The FDA has published the following guidance on this subject, found at www.fda.gov/cder/ guidance/4856FNL.PDF.
While it states that deciding which drug studies qualify for inclusion is ultimately a matter of judgment, it identifies relevant criteria for study inclusion in detail, and includes, by way of example, drug studies for diseases such as AIDS, HIV, Alzheimers disease, angina pectoris, heart failure, cancer, and others.
In addition, as the criteria include diseases which can be well managed using existing therapy, but which can have serious outcomes if unmanaged, the list also includes studies for diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease, asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, depression, and others, including any drug obtaining a fast track designation.
Companies in the process of conducting effectiveness trials for the diseases identified above, or which fit the fairly expansive definition of serious or life threatening diseases, should examine whether those studies should be listed on the registry.
These are the only known governmental requirements of general applicability regarding the registration of clinical trials to date. Given the impetus created by the New York state settlements and the subsequent furor created by the Vioxx market withdrawal, expanded requirements, most significantly for studies of marketed drugs such as those involved in the New York litigation which the companies themselves are now voluntarily including in company-based registries, are essentially a certainty.
These developments would seem on the surface to be very desirable. But underneath the surface lies a potentially significant political issue that bears at least some consideration: will there be an effect on the FDAs traditional role of interpreter of such studies for the medical community?
In drafting new product labeling, and in revising it during a products marketing life, the FDA is responsible for weighing the significance of available information and drawing the most appropriate medical conclusions from it. Not every new potential risk is accepted, as initial presumptions need to be overcome by evidence whose weight is largely cumulative.
Moreover, evaluating this type of dynamic information flow is not readily left to individual practitioners or others who are not experienced in doing so. Perhaps the issue would be less troublesome were it one of keeping information from the agency. But it is not.
In the episodes described above, the FDA was not in the dark at the time the issue became one of public interest. While companies may be selective in the studies they publish, agency rules do not permit companies to be nearly as selective in the studies they bring to the attention of the agency, either prior to or after approval.
Both the association of antidepressants with suicide based-behaviors in children and Vioxx link to cardiovascular issues were known to the FDA before they became front-page events. In both cases, the question was not so much of what was known, but whether the institutional response to what was known was appropriate.
It is too soon to know exactly what the responses to these issues will be, though required publicly-available study registries for both marketed and under-development drugs are almost a certainly. Other suggestions have included a more prominent drug safety office within the FDA to the establishment of an agency outside the FDA, a sort of NTSB for drug safety, to monitor drug safety.
It remains to be seen whether what does occur will impact the FDAs traditional role as the sole regulatory filter for drug safety information, and whether such a result is a positive one.

HAMDEN, Conn. - The St. Francis women's basketball team lives and dies by its ability to shoot well, particularly from beyond the arc.
Sunday afternoon was an off-night for the Red Flash at the TD Bank Sports Center.
And that carried over to every facet of their game.

Mirror photo by J.D. Cavrich
St. Francis' Alli Williams walks off the court at the end of the game while confetti flies for Quinnipiac's celebration.
Quinnipiac took advantage and crushed St. Francis, 72-33, in the Northeast Conference championship.
"It was a crazy night. We're disappointed we didn't play better," St. Francis coach Joe Haigh said. "We knew coming in that Quinnipiac is a great team. They do a great job. They defended extremely well and rebounded well. You're not going to beat anybody scoring 33 points.
"We were here, we had a shot. We didn't get it done. It'll be motivation for next year. We plan to be back."
Fact Box
All-tourney team
Jackie Brewer, Mt. St. Mary's
Alli Williams, St. Francis
Jasmine Martin, Quinnipiac
Felicia Barron, Quinnipiac
Brittany McQuian, Quinnipiac
MVP: McQuain
The Bobcats won their first tournament title and punched their first ticket to the NCAA Tournament while denying the Red Flash their 12th crown.
"I'm so thrilled for the program to win its first NEC championship," Quinnipiac coach Tricia Fabbri said. "The final seconds took forever in my mind.
"Being able to watch 'Quinnipiac' go up on the screen in the field of 64 is my dream come true."
Alexa Hayward gave St. Francis (17-15) an early 3-2 lead - it's lone advantage - on a 3-pointer from the corner, but for the next seven minutes, the Red Flash couldn't find nylon.
Part of the problem was that Quinnipiac took Alli Williams out of the game.
The junior matched a season-low with two points. She had 10 rebounds.
"When things are going well, it's easy to feed off the positives," Williams said. "When it's going bad, it's just as easy feeding off of it. So when we missed our first couple shots, it's hard to come back from that. Especially when Quinnipiac is making shots."
"In practice, coach always talked about, 'Just don't leave her side, know where she is on the 3-point line,'" NEC Defensive Player of the Year Felicia Barron said of limiting Williams. "We had to guard her the best we could. It was great to hold her to two points because if she would have gotten off, it would have been a game. It was great to shut her down and mess up their whole offense."
In fact, nearly everyone struggled from the field.
St. Francis was just 13-of-55 (24 percent) shooting on the night after a dismal first half where the Flash trailed, 32-15.
They were a miserable 2-for-22 (9 percent) from long distance.
"We missed a lot of shots and didn't play our game," Haigh said. "It was a disappointing night for us."
"It takes a good team to come back from a 17-point deficit at halftime," Williams said. "We were confident we could do it, we just never got the spark to do it and it just kept getting worse."
Quinnipiac (30-2) never lost control and dominated at both ends of the floor.
The Bobcats forced the Red Flash into 20 turnovers, won the rebounding battle (54-38), and had 21 assists on 27 field goals.
Their success offensively was epitomized by a handful bank shots, including one of Lisa Lebak's first-half 3-pointers that kissed the window before going in.
"We always want to set the tone on defense with [Barron] with her pressure," Fabbri said. "How we defend in the half court, that forces pace for us. We were dominant in the first 20 minutes and that allowed us get our pace on the offensive end."
For St. Francis, is was quite the opposite.
"Everything went wrong today," Haigh said. "Shots didn't go that normally go. Bounces - all that stuff. I don't know what to say. They did a great job and we had an off day."
Tournament MVP Brittany McQuain had a team-high 14 points. She was also a defensive force in the paint, effectively altering shots and filling up passing lanes.
"A huge stress going into this year was our defense," McQuain said. "When we're on the same page defensively, we're unbeatable."
Hayward led St. Francis with eight points, while Kelley Doogan had six.
The Red Flash could still get a berth in the WBI Tournament, but this loss will likely sting for months.
"We were excited and confident, but I think a lot of the energy might have been nerves," Williams said. "We were ready, but the fact that we were on TV or that it was the championship might have psyched us out."
"It's a long season. We've had some games like this," Haigh said. "This is the worst one. We'll treat this as something to learn from. It's disappointing for the seniors, but hopefully for this program, it's just another step."
Game notes: The 15 first-half points tied a season-low for St. Francis. The Red Flash trailed, 38-15, at the break at Bryant on March 2. ... It was the worst loss against a conference opponent since Jan. 25, 1987 when St. Francis lost to Monmouth by 41 in the pre-NEC league, the ECAC Metro. ... St. Francis' 33 points is the lowest point total in an NEC Tournament game. It was also the largest margin of victory in any NEC Tournament game. ... Quinnipiac's 30 wins are a league record. ... The Bobcats played their final game as members of the NEC. They are making the move to the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference next year.

The Top 51 Most Influential People in the Santa Clarita Valley were honored at a dinner Thursday night at the Robinson Ranch Golf Club.
Sponsored by the Santa Clarita Valley Business Journal, some 170 guests mingled in the dining room for the seventh annual event paying tribute to those in the community whose efforts have played a role in creating a rewarding living experience for residents in the SCV.
Overlooking acres of open land and the greenbelt used for the golf course, live music flowed as the SCV's most influential people socialized prior to sitting down for a sunset dinner. Present and past winners were in attendance.
Los Angeles County Supervisor Michael Antonovich, the second most influential on the list of honorees, mixed with guests early in the evening.
Congratulating all 96 nominees, Morris Thomas, publisher of the SCV Business Journal, welcomed the evening's honorees.
There are so many people that make Santa Clarita what it is that selecting only 51 is nearly impossible, Thomas said.
"This Top 51 event is to honor you folks, the ones who give so much of their lives to make the Santa Clarita Valley a much better place," he said.
Field deputies for Rep. Buck McKeon, state Sen. Tony Strickland and Antonovich presented certificates to each of the winners, as Thomas called each recipient to the front of the room.
Included among the honorees was Santa Clarita City Manager Ken Pulskamp, who was named as the most influential this year.
EZ Access Self Storage, Robinson Ranch, the YMCA, SCVTV and A-1 Party served as event sponsors.
Throughout the evening guests enjoyed a cocktail hour, sit-down dinner and entertainment from musicians Al Jackson and Tony Campondonico, who recently performed at the SCV Jazz Festival.

ONE OF the many distinctions between Land of the Good and the Land of the Great lies in the moments that follow failure, those feeble seconds when an opposing player trots around the bases and the fan base sits in a sort of stunned reflection. Such a moment came early for Roy Halladay yesterday evening, well before the sun had finished its descent below the horizon, well before a 78th consecutive capacity crowd had finished filing into its blue seats.
The seventh pitch of the game caught too much of the plate and Chipper Jones' bat caught too much of the ball, and before you could say "six-game deficit," the Phillies looked like they were on the way to one against the first-place Braves.
