The San Francisco 49ers may turn to their greatest rival to address one of their few needs.
Seattle free-agent cornerback Walter Thurmond tweeted Thursday that he is headed to San Francisco for a visit. He visited Jacksonville on Thursday.
Thurmond is a versatile player who can play inside and outside. He'd be an upgrade for the 49ers at the cornerback position, which is still somewhat of a work in progress.
Interestingly, Thurmond and 49ers free-agent cornerback Tarell Brown have the same agent. Because the 49ers have limited cap room, they may be hard pressed to keep Brown -- who reportedly has received interested from Miami -- and sign Thurmond.
The 49ers also are visiting with Minnesota cornerback Chris Cook. He is not considered the player Thurmond or Brown are.
In other 49ers news:
Tackle Jonathan Martin passed his physical and his trade to the 49ers from Miami is official. The 49ers are giving Martin, who played for 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh at Stanford, a change to salvage his career after being at the center of a bullying case in Miami last season."Any time we acquire a player we give him a clean slate, along with every opportunity to demonstrate his value to our organization, both on the field and in the community," 49ers general manager Trent Baalke said in a statement. "It will be no different in Jonathan's case. As a former Stanford student-athlete, we are very familiar with Jonathan and look forward to working with him."
Free-agent running back Anthony Dixon tweeted that he is going to Buffalo for a visit. He left Tennessee on Thursday. He is not expected to be back with the 49ers. While the salary cap is still fluid, the 49ers are expected to have about $3-4 million remaining.

What is Molecular modelling?
Chemistry with Molecular Modelling is a chemistry based course (see TR071 Chemistry, page 149) which is a creative science that is used to develop everything from new materials such as superconductors for new batteries, to a new drug molecule for the pharmaceutical industry. Without it, many modern science disciplines such as materials science, molecular biology and environmental science would not be possible. Chemistry with Molecular Modelling embeds computer modelling techniques and how they can be applied to understand and explore chemistry. Advancements in molecular modelling have led to an explosive growth in a range of applications. The modelling aspects of this course focus on modelling the structure and reactivity of molecules and solids including:
- The simulation of the structure and properties of materials and nano-materials, including oxides, semiconductors and catalysts
- The modelling of how electrons are arranged in materials and how they behave during chemical reactions
- Modelling organic and bio-organic molecules, including DNA, proteins, drug molecules and computational drug design
- The theory implementation of different approaches to modelling materials
Is this the right course for you?
The course will suit you well if you have an interest in science and chemistry in particular, have a logical and inquisitive mind and want to work in industry or research after university.
Why study Chemistry with Molecular Modelling at Trinity?
This degree is designed to train our students with the creative talent and skills required for research and industry. The course provides a broad base in organic, inorganic and physical chemistry so that our graduates have a wide selection of career prospects. This degree also provides students with the unique opportunity to study the fundamentals of modern chemistry, whilst developing skills in applying computer modelling techniques to the exploration of chemical problems.
The School of Chemistry at Trinity has a small but dedicated staff applied to both teaching and research. This has allowed the School to build a nationally leading and internationally competitive research programme, including involvement in TBSI (biomedical science) and CRANN (materials and nanoscience). This has led to the School of Chemistry at Trinity having the highest international ranking of any chemistry school in Ireland (QS World University Rankings by Subject 2015).
What will you study?
The course is based on the Chemistry degree with core components of chemistry (inorganic, organic and physical) taken along with special molecular modelling modules, practical work and project work. You will be assessed by a combination of continuous assessment and end-of-year examinations.
You will study the same foundation courses in chemistry and mathematics and one of biology or as students in the Science course – TR071 (see page 146). This includes a series of lectures on molecular modelling and a number of computational based laboratories. Special lectures are given to introduce the concepts of molecular modelling and to highlight applications.
In the third and fourth years you will take core modules in chemistry with additional modules in molecular modelling to include general molecular modelling, quantum mechanics, optimisation, modelling protein structure, drug design, molecular dynamics, and modelling in solid-state materials chemistry.
Lectures are complemented by laboratory experimental classes where you will gain experience in more sophisticated preparative chemical techniques and spectroscopic analysis. About one third of your laboratory class time will be spent in computer laboratories performing computational experiments using molecular modelling.
As a fourth-year student you will undertake a research project, typically from September to December. This may be done in Trinity or in an academic or research laboratory abroad. This is complemented by lectures in core fundamental material in organic, inorganic and physical chemistry. In addition, an extensive range of optional courses are also offered that allow each student to develop her/his own particular interests.
If you would like more detailed information on all the modules offered, please visit: www.chemistry.tcd.ie/undergraduate/molecular-modelling
Study abroad
The School of Chemistry has exchange agreements with a large number of other universities and research institutions where students may carry out their final-year research projects. Centres where students have completed their research projects include Vienna, Berlin, Bologna, Toulouse, and Utrecht in Europe, as well as many others in North America, China and Australia.
A chemistry degree combines specialist practical training with analytical, problem-solving and presentation skills and is excellent preparation for graduates considering a diverse range of career paths. Our graduates can pursue postgraduate degrees either in the School of Chemistry or in other world-class research institutions. Trinity's chemistry graduates are highly sought after by the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, which contribute some 20% to Ireland's exports.
Former graduates of Trinity Chemistry are working in companies such as Henkel, Pfizer, Glaxo-Smith-Kline and Bristol Meyers Squib. Patent offices, government advisory and information services, libraries, public analytical laboratories, schools and third-level institutions also employ our chemists.
Other successful routes graduates have taken in the past include careers in business and financial services sectors and in management. In addition, the specially developed computational skills make graduates an attractive prospect for employers both within computing environments and in other professions. Examples of industries where people are employed directly in scientific computing/modelling include: pharmaceutical (computational drug design), chemical (developing catalysts), materials chemistry (semi-conductors/magnetic materials), financial services and meteorology.

Graduate profile
Dr. Aron Walsh
Ph.D., School of Chemistry, Trinity College Dublin
Currently: Marie Curie Research Fellow, University College London
I chose this course out of my childhood love for chemistry sets and Nintendo, and didn't really know what to expect. The degree allowed me to develop skills in chemistry, physics, mathematics and computer science, but it was not until a final year research project, that I realised the power (and fun) of computer modelling of chemical systems. This experience drove me to accept a Ph.D. position in the group of Professor Graeme Watson, and I spent three years studying the electronic structure properties of post-transition metal oxides. During this time, I had the opportunity to use some of the largest supercomputers in the world, publish research papers based on my simulations, and most excitingly, to see an experimental group from Oxford University verify my predictions! After graduating, I moved to Denver, Colorado to work for the U.S. Department of Energy on the development of new materials for converting sunlight into electricity. In 2009, I was awarded a research fellowship from the European Union to move to University College London, and continue my research on energy materials and processes. I have had the opportunity to present my research around the globe, everywhere from Hawaii to Seoul, and I currently hold a visiting fellowship to Fudan University, Shanghai. The goals of science are universal, and pursuing a career in science has allowed me to experience a world I never knew existed.

THE GIANT polar ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica are losing three times as much ice as 20 years ago, adding to the rising sea level that threatens low-lying coastal areas, according to a new study hailed by scientists as the most accurate assessment of polar ice melt to date.
In one startling finding, Greenland's melt was five times higher than it was in the mid-1990s, representing more than two-thirds of the ice loss, according to the study, published online Thursday in the journal Science. Antarctica's slower thaw accounted for the rest.

VA brain center may get $3 millionAugust 24,2013
WHITE RIVER JUNCTION — U.S. Sen. Patrick Leahy says Vermont's Veterans Administration medical center could get $3 million to help study post-traumatic stress disorder and help rural health care providers deal with the problem.
Leahy said the National Center for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder at the White River Junction hospital would help create the nation's first brain tissue repository dedicated to researching the physical impact of stress and trauma on the brain.
The other half of the funding would go toward initiating an outreach program for rural veterans with PTSD designed to support community health care providers with information and resources on diagnosis and treatment.
The funding is included in a military construction and veterans affairs budget bill that awaits passage by both houses of Congress.

Feminist activist, journalist, and icon Gloria Steinem, the subject of a recent HBO documentary, appears to have outed herself as a capital-P Pagan at a recent speaking engagement with Egyptian-American journalist Mona Eltahawy.
"Eltahawy's family lived in England for most of her childhood, until her parents moved to Saudi Arabia when she was a teenager. She said she was raised Muslim, but not strictly traditionally, adding that she is now much more liberal than her parents and that her feminism was formed, in large part, in response to the restrictions on women in Saudi Arabia. Steinem's father was Jewish, her mother was not, and she was raised without religion. She now calls herself a "pagan," inspired by a trip down the Nile, where she witnessed how the ancient Egyptians incorporated nature into their worship."
Feminism has always walked arm-in-arm with the modern Pagan movement, just ask Starhawk, Vicki Noble, or Diane Stein (among many, many others).The image of a Goddess, even if seen as only a symbol, is a powerful recurring element within feminist writing and theology. My only question is how recent is this shift? While there's long been evidence that Steinem has been sympathetic to Paganism and the Goddess Movement, I think this is the first time I heard her label herself as a Pagan. In any case, welcome! Maybe we'll see you at the next PantheaCon?

Thanks to recognised research strength in rail vehicle rolling stock, Newcastle University has been accepted into the UK Rail Research & Innovation Network (UKRRIN). The combined expertise of NewRail, and the Design Unit, together with support and backing from our Executive Board, scored very highly with the review panel. Newcastle University will partner with Huddersfield University to lead the Rolling Stock Innovations Centre, as part of the RSG Centres of Excellence scheme.
June saw the opening of the 57km long Gotthard Base railway tunnel, in Switzerland – the world's longest and deepest traffic tunnel and the first flat, low-level route through the Alps. The main purpose of the tunnel is to increase local transport capacity through the Alpine barrier, notably on the Rotterdam-Basel-Genoa corridor and, more particularly, to shift freight volumes from road to rail. NewRail's Roberto Palacin was interviewed by Le Figaro about the benefits of the new construction: see his interview here
With her research on Subway Climatology, ZI Qian took the top prize in the RAIL category at TRA Visions 2016, in Warsaw. The competition was for Academic students researching Innovative Transport Concepts. Zi's work looks at how air moves between different regions in subway systems, between tunnels and overground, and considers how smoke or a chemical agent might spread throughout the system, in the event of accident or terrorist attack, simulating optimum emergency evacuation routes.

Starting from SMARTSET achievements and with input from other experts, experiences on efficient Urban Freight Transport were presented and discussed at the conference that brought together policy makers, knowledge carriers and cities, from across Europe, implementing sustainable city logistics measures or planning to do so. Apart from presentations regarding EU-perspective on the future, and other insights regarding access regulations, incentives, and favourable framework conditions for sustainable Urban Freight Transport and business models, the conference provided a lot of space for networking and the exchange of knowledge and ideas.All presentations are now available on the SMARTSET website for download.
SETRIS's overall aim is to deliver a cohesive and coordinated approach to research and innovation strategies for all transport modes in Europe, by enabling the 5 transport related European Technology Platforms (ETPs) to work together. Each ETP has its own strategic research and innovation agenda (SRIA) and each is at a different stage of delivery and maturity. Whilst some successful cross-ETP working is already established, SETRIS will provide the key building blocks for tighter cooperation between the ETPs, their members and stakeholders.

This variety will grow well in most regions of the United States.
This variety is a productive Dutch strain of pea and also known as 'Blauwschokkers.'
The wild ancestors of peas grew in the Mediterranean basin and over thousands of years were selected for their dry seeds. By the 3rd century BCE peas were being grown by the ancient Greeks and in the Middle Ages field peas kept the population fed in years of near famine.
Fresh, or garden, peas first started to be consumed in the 17th century and split peas developed late in the 19th century.
This variety works for
Soup peas have been enjoyed as a winter staple in Europe for centuries. Soak dry seeds overnight before cooking the peas.
Split pea soup with ham is a warm and rich dish, but it isn't the only soup that features peas. Try using peas with your favorite curries or puree cooked peas and roasted cauliflower for a creamy soup.
Fresh peas can be used in spring soups with watercress, mint, asparagus, or parsley.
This crop does not transplant well so make sure to direct seed in your garden as soon as the soil can be worked (about 2 weeks before the last expected frost date).
Space your seeds 2-4 inches apart in well fertilized soil. Plant your seeds around 1 inch deep.
As this plant grows it may need support in the form of a trellis to keep the vines off the ground. You won't need to fertiize this crop in order to get a healthy yield.
Mulching the soil around this crop can help protect the plant and keep roots cool and moist. In frost-free zones, this crop can be grow throughout the fall and winter.
Peas do best in cool weather, so plan your growing season accordingly. Sow the seeds into your garden as soon as the soil can be worked in the spring. Some gardens in mild climates can sow peas in the fall after the soil begins to cool. Place your seeds 2-3 inches apart in the soil and plant them 1/2 inch to 1 inch deep. These peas will germinate in 7-14 days, need a trellis for support, and should be mature in about 80-85 days.
There are about 2k seeds in a pound of Blue Podded pea.

Hometown Hero: Algieri Outboxed Taylor in Huntington
By Cliff Rold
29-year old Jr. Welterweight Chris Algieri (19-0, 8 KO) won his eighth in a row at the Paramount Theatre in his hometown of Huntington, New York, on Friday night with a skillful ten-round unanimous decision over 23-year old Emmanuel Taylor (17-2, 12 KO) of Edgewood Arsenal, Maryland. There were no knockdowns in the bout but there were plenty of solid exchanges on a night where Algieri was too active and too quick to be denied.
Algieri weighed in at 142 for the contest, Taylor at 141. Both men looked to have filled out to well better than those weights by fight time. The referee was Harvey Dunn.
Each looked to establish their jab in the first, Taylor doing more of the pressing as Algieri worked around the ring and looked for spots for his right hand. Action heated up as the second round progressed, a notable exchange in the final minute featuring hard uppercuts from both men. Algieri mixed in a flurry of blows to go along with his to maintain control of the frame.
The next three rounds all saw Algieri continuing to throw flashier shots with Taylor incrementally increasing his presence in the fight. In the fifth, Taylor had his best round, landing hard and often. Algieri responded strong, coming back in combination and stuffing the left hand underneath to the body.
Taylor stayed at his steady pace in rounds six and seven, his timing of Algieri improving along with his offense. Algieri's responses were less explosive than they'd been in earlier rounds, Taylor getting through his high guard with right hands.
Round eight saw Algieri, the crowd loudly behind him, digging in for a big round. Mixing it up from head to body and back again, Algieri blunted the effort of Taylor and drew blood from what appeared the nose of Taylor.
Algieri was affected in the final minute of the ninth with a left hand but his response was to punch back in a round he'd otherwise dominated. Taylor could not find another left hand to improve his chances.
With one round remaining, Taylor looked to be behind and came out swinging like he knew it. Algieri was sound defensively in the round and opened up down the stretch to keep Taylor honest and keep himself on track to stay undefeated.
The final scores sent the crowd home happy at 98-92 and 97-93 twice for Algieri. Taylor loses for the second time in his last five fights. Algieri takes another step towards contention.
Prior to the main event, there was an upset of sorts in the Jr. Welterweight division.
28-year old Jeremy Bryan (16-3, 7 KO), 141, of Paterson, New Jersey, scored a unanimous eight-round decision over 26-year old Burkina Faso native Issouf Kinda (16-2, 6 KO), 141, of the Bronx, New York. The bout was filled with clinches and awkward exchanges but the dogged Bryan withstood some long right hands and outworked the taller man, slugging hard with his left. A cut was opened under the right eye of Kinda in the third from an accidental clash of heads. Bryan was elated when scores came in at 78-74 and 77-75 twice, dropping to his knees in joy at the announcement.
Bryan was stopped in two of his previous four bouts. Kinda loses his second straight. The referee was
The broadcast opened with a clash of fledgling Jr. Middleweights.
In a bout with no knockdowns, 21-year old Haitian Wendy Toussaint (4-0) of Huntington, New York, scored a majority decision over four rounds with another in an early career of decision verdicts over 23-year old Anthony Gangemi (4-2, 3 KO) of Mine Hill, New Jersey. Toussaint was some four inches taller at 6'0. Both men weighed in at 148 lbs. The fight was tough to score with Gangemi largely pressing the action and Touissant working to stay at range and land pot shots. One judge saw the bout ever at 38-38 but was overruled by twin scores of 39-37 for Toussaint.
The referee was Tony Chairantano.
The card was broadcast on ESPN2 as part of its "Friday Night Fights" series, promoted by Joe DeGuardia's Star Boxing.

MIAMI -- They hung on the ropes like a valiant heavyweight fighter, staggering to their corner after absorbing blow after blow, only to regroup and come out again with some counterpunches of their own.
The Boston Celtics once again proved their resiliency and their guile, but as time ticked away in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference semifinals and the score remained tight, you knew what the outcome would be against a younger, more athletic opponent playing at home that features the player with the best knockout punch in all of basketball.
And, in the end, it was LeBron James who TKO'd their hopes, their dreams, their season.
And, in the end, it was the Miami Heat who advanced to the Eastern Conference finals because they proved to be the better team.
For 45 minutes, the Celtics clung to the slightest of advantages, playing with a lineup of Ray Allen, Kevin Garnett, Jeff Green, Delonte West and, ahem, Nenad Krstic, who didn't even play in Games 3 or 4 of the series.
Rajon Rondo, the point guard who set the Celtics apart for most of the season, was on the bench with a bad shoulder, an aching elbow and a cranky back. Jermaine O'Neal, the defacto starting center, was sidelined with his own back problems. Paul Pierce was in and out of the game with foul trouble.
And still the Celtics held an 81-74 lead with 9:21 to go in the game.
"I thought we were playing great," Green said.
Stop me when you've heard this before. Down the stretch, while Boston turned the ball over and missed wide open shots, the Heat turned it up and completely dominated play. In past games, Miami beat Boston driving into the teeth of its defense.
In this game, the Heat obliterated the Celtics with 3-point shooting.
Three in particular were killers: a James Jones trey with 3:45 to go (which proved to be his only bucket of the night) just after a Kevin Garnett turnaround rolled off; a LeBron fallaway 3-pointer over Pierce in the corner with 2:11 left to push Miami in front 90-87, and another contested LeBron 3-pointer over Pierce's outstretched arms with 40 seconds left to clinch it.
That dagger followed Pierce's pass to Green in the corner that skipped off his hands and out
of bounds.
The numbers were staggering in the final four and a half minutes of the game. Boston was outscored 16-0 and missed five consecutive shots. Conversely LeBron, who again played the entire second half without any rest, made every big plays when his team required it. He scored the final 10 points of the game, each more ferocious than the previous.
Boston's veterans gamely tried to keep pace without success.
"We missed so many open shots down the stretch," Celtics coach Doc Rivers said with a sigh. "Maybe it was fatigue, or maybe we just missed shots.
"They hit two 3s with one second on the shot clock, fading out. It's a make-miss league. It always will be."
Rivers was proactive in trying to stem the inevitable discussion that his Celtics are too old, too worn and too beat-up to continue being a championship contender. He announced following the game he was leaning heavily toward returning next season as the Celtics' coach, and expected his core players to follow suit.
"I don't believe we're done," he declared.
While there are a number of Boston players on the roster who are in the final years of their contract, none of them are named Garnett, Pierce, Rondo or Allen (he has a player option that he made clear he fully intends to exercise).
Glen "Big Baby" Davis is an unrestricted free agent who often clashed with Rivers and completed a dreadful postseason with six points and two rebounds in 16 minutes of play. Boston won't throw a lot of money at him, but since they are over the cap, they are limited in what they can do to change their personnel.
Davis insisted he loved playing for Rivers and wanted to return, but conceded, "You never know. Perk [Kendrick Perkins] wanted to stay too."
Ah yes, the elephant in the green room. If the Celtics hadn't traded Perkins away, would they have been able to beat the Heat? Since Boston's most notable struggles were on the offensive end of the floor, that may be a skewed theory, but there is no denying the chemistry was altered, perhaps irrevocably, once the popular center was shipped to Oklahoma City. Nothing ever seemed right after he was gone.
Perhaps with a full year in the system, Jeff Green will flourish the way Celtics boss Danny Ainge envisioned he would. At 24, he represents a bridge to the future, and it would be almost unfathomable to imagine that Boston will let him go as a restricted free agent.
Boston will likely want to keep Delonte West, whose contract is up, but there would have be a more significant overhaul if this team truly expects to remain among the elite.
Pierce said he thought the team would re-evaluate its roster and make a couple of moves.
"Let's see what happens," he said.
As constituted, the fire power of the energetic, fearless and defensive minded Heat is only going to improve with time, while the passing of days and months and years continues to be the biggest threat to Boston's viability.
Both James and Wade paid proper homage to their elder adversaries, with LeBron admitting one of the reasons he came to Miami was because of the "multiple threat" blueprint the Celtics established in 2008 when KG and Allen joined Pierce and won a title.
"They pushed us every game, every second, every play, every minute on the court," James said, "and if we made a mistake, they made us pay."
The same was true for the Boston Celtics. When they faltered, the Heat pounced. The biggest difference? It seemed to take the Celtics an eternity to score, while Miami proved repeatedly to be a quick-strike attacker.
That's what happens when you are young and talented and hungry.
"Miami is a terrific team, by the way," Rivers said. "Those three guys are tough, and those two guys are monsters when they are making shots."
There was a time when opponents said the same of the Boston Celtics. Rivers and Pierce believe that time will come again, when Rondo and his mates have time to heal and reflect.
You just wonder how that is possible with a new "big three" on the horizon in the East, a trio that is only beginning to realize its own strength.

The mystery of the giant S-shape 'Rott Ness monster' detected by weather radar near WA
- From: news.com.au
- February 13, 2014
A NAVY exercise is believed to be the cause of the S-shape which formed off the coast of Perth yesterday.
The weather bureau radar detected the unusual shape around 30km west of Rottnest Island on Wednesday afternoon.
In an interview with the ABC, meteorologist Neil Bennett said the phenomenon was not caused by cloud. "They don't take on S shapes and things like that," he said.
Mr Bennett told the broadcaster that the radar beam, programmed for the detection of precipitation, strikes rain droplets or ice particles.
The 'S' shape on the #Perth Radar yesterday was created by a Navy Aircraft exercise. #RottNessMonster @TheWAWG @weather_wa @TenNewsPerth— Michael Schultz (@M_Schultz_10) February 13, 2014
The formation was dubbed the 'Rott Nest Monster' on social networking websites.
Before the confirmation, WA Weather Group provided a number of possible explanations in messages on Twitter:

Gates Foundation, China to Fight AIDS
SEATTLE -- The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation tomorrow will launch an AIDS-prevention partnership with the Chinese government, an unusual approach that underscores the philanthropic group's concern about the risk the deadly virus poses to the world's most populous nation.
While the number of HIV-infected people in China is relatively small -- about 650,000 in a population of 1.3 billion -- a confluence of health, economic and social factors make it vulnerable to a pandemic. The spread of a disease as debilitating as AIDS in a trade and manufacturing juggernaut such as China would likely have ripple effects around the globe.
Health Blog Q&A
"China's epidemic isn't necessarily unique from a medical perspective -- other countries also face AIDS epidemics that are concentrated among high-risk groups but threaten to spread to the general population. What's remarkable is how in just a few years, the government stopped overlooking HIV/AIDS and instead made it a top national priority." -- Bill Gates on AIDS prevention in China
The Gates Foundation's help in curbing the spread of AIDS could be crucial given Beijing's official resistance to dealing with the marginalized populations most likely to contract it, and societal reluctance to confront the drug use and sexual promiscuity associated with HIV transmission. In addition, China needs technical assistance and other outside expertise to mount an effective awareness and prevention campaign.
"A more widespread AIDS epidemic would have tremendous consequences for China and the rest of the world," said Bill Gates, the Microsoft Corp. MSFT -1.09 % cofounder who launched the foundation with his wife. "But it can be averted if we move quickly to expand prevention efforts."
With an initial foundation grant of $50 million and China's chipping in funds of its own, the partnership will push prevention in 12 major cities, including Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, and the island province of Hainan. The aim will be to find people at high risk of AIDS and refer them to voluntary counseling and testing centers, which will offer education and tools to avoid the deadly virus. For people with HIV, the program will stress not passing it on.
The $35 billion Gates Foundation, which was created to tackle problems affecting global health, education and family issues, usually prefers to design its own programs and to put them into practice by teaming with nonprofits. But Beijing's centralized control made it necessary to collaborate with health, security and Communist Party agencies; indeed, it took four years of diplomacy by Mr. Gates before Beijing would permit his organization to register as a foreign foundation. Work with grass-roots groups and nongovernmental organizations -- whose activism often incurs official wrath in China -- will come later.
The dynamic social and economic climate that is enriching China and opening it to the world is also cause for concern on the AIDS front. Rates of infection among gay men there are rising, 50% of drug users are infected in some provinces, and large-scale migration is fueling a booming sex trade that officials fear could be a bridge for HIV into the general population. Neighboring India, which has undergone a similar transformation in recent decades, currently has 2.3 million HIV-infected people.
To be sure, Beijing has made strides on its own. This year it boosted funding for AIDS programs to $150 million, which among other things fund free HIV drugs and methadone-maintenance clinics for heroin addicts, who can contract the virus from shared needles.
But the Gates Foundation also brings more-ambitious methods to the effort, including a mass-media campaign meant to put a skittish Chinese public at ease. The Gates-funded AIDS Media Project has produced television spots showing Houston Rockets basketball star Yao Ming and former Los Angeles Laker Magic Johnson -- who is HIV positive -- shooting hoops and sharing takeout food to emphasize that casual contact with infected people is safe. Next week, stations will begin airing a new public-service announcement starring action-film star Jackie Chan.

Women are one of the criminal justice system's fastest growing populations. In the past decade, the number of women incarcerated in the United States prisons grew by 25 percent.

NSCLC is "Major Battlefield" as Merck,...
LC-MS Gains Favor Due To the...
Effective partnering is essential for success in science mergers, acquisitions, alliances, and between departments, but partnering results often fall short. Managing partnering as if it were a project and better partnering meetings significantly improve partnering results.
"We just got acquired by a giant pharma company. They say they're going to leave us alone. They just want to partner with us to learn about how we model our cells."
"We're partnering also, with a company like ours that focuses on Phase II arthritis drug development. I can't imagine how we'll keep track of who owns what."
"And I can't imagine how cross-company partnering could work. We can't partner in our own company with the other departments that are supposed to work with us."
In 2013, working in biotech and pharma means working with partnering. It's not possible to read an industry publication or view a biotech association web site without encountering news about the latest deals, the most recent merger and alliance agreements.
We partner across companies because few if any large companies attempt to do discovery or Phase I work. We partner in alliances because we hope/expect that pooling our efforts will benefit us all. We partner between departments in our own organizations because our organizations are flat, decentralized. They lack the kind of formal hierarchy that works well for banks and insurance companies but would stifle the free-flowing communications and thinking necessary for drug development.
Our focus on partnering deals masks the problems we encounter when we attempt to translate the deals into everyday work. Two thirds of general business mergers and acquisitions fail, the large literature on the subject tells us. We lack similar accessible data on our own industry, and on alliance and interdepartmental partnering performance, because of our stringent intellectual property practices. However, our everyday experience strongly suggests that our alliances and interdepartmental partnering encounter similar difficulties.
We encounter a host of puzzling, troubling partnering problems. The same large company that initially told us they would "leave us alone" now wants to make "minor" changes to our procedures that we know will have major negative impacts. No one in the large organization can tell us who can answer our questions. People we haven't met before appear at our labs or engage us in conference calls where they demand to know why they haven't received information we didn't know they needed.
Most troubling, and often most pointed, are the conflicts we encounter among departments attempting to partner in our own organization. We appreciate that quality standards must be high, but must our QA auditors come after us with such a vengeance? Do they really need everything they're asking for? Do they really expect us to drop everything we're doing just to meet their artificial deadlines and emergencies?
Though daunting, these problems are understandable. People can't tell us who's responsible in our partner organizations because they don't know. In fact, we probably can't answer such questions about our own organization. In science, all of our organizations need that kind of ambiguity in order to keep the fragile process of inquiry alive.
Effective partnering meetings provide a forum to manage the partnering process and increase partnering success. Meetings should be scheduled closely enough together to address issues and track action items, but separated enough so participants can implement plans. Meetings must involve the key players, usually a vertical cross-section in each organization—senior managers to give general direction, mid-levels to do the work, and grass-roots people to provide a reality check and hands-on insights.
Because partnering meetings build an infrastructure engaging two groups, they need an agenda that works intelligently on four tasks:
One word provides the criterion for assessing partnering meeting effectiveness: specificity. It's nice if meeting discussions are interesting and participants are polite. It's most likely for meetings to have lasting results if discussions are specific and result in detailed lists of who will do what when.
Initially encountering these ideas, many people express surprise that such extensive effort is necessary to ensure partnering success. When they compare the effort they've given their own, troubled partnering, they realize that they've severely neglected it, expecting it to somehow unfold on its own.
It helps to think of partnering as if it were a project. Mergers, acquisitions, and alliances may confuse us, but we know projects. In science, we live, breathe, and succeed with projects every day. Managing partnering like a project means doing the same things with partnering that we do to make projects successful: assigning leaders, clarifying individuals roles and responsibilities, setting clear deliverables and schedules, establishing effective processes for exchanging information, and solving problems.
Our partnering activities bring so many promising ideas and people together. It's time we learned to make the most of them.

Therefore, the source of funds (grants and contracts, local funds, etc.) for payment of salaries shall be subject to Prairie View A&M University's rates of pay established for all positions.
Pay Structure
The structure of the plan is intended to accomplish the following functions:
- Define the competitive pay position of jobs within the university to the relevant external market;
- Establish differential pay levels between jobs to recognize differing demands; and
- Establish lower and upper limits of value for each job.
Market criteria: In developing the University's pay structure for staff positions, the Office of Human Resources will consider compensation rates for comparable positions from a variety of primarily public-sector employers since the University is a public state agency. The University will develop and seek to pay rates that compare with prevailing rates. In general, the markets to be considered for comparison to various job groups will be:
- Non-exempt – local area within a 60-mile radius of PVAMU and comparable state universities; and
- Exempt – national (like-size institutions), regional, comparable state universities, CUPA Survey, and appropriate salary survey data.
The Office of Human Resources will review the competitiveness of the University's pay plan annually. Based upon the findings of this review, a recommendation will be made concerning adjustments to the plan to the President. Any revisions or allocation of additional funding needed to adjust the plan requires approval by the VP for Business Affairs and availability of sustainable funding.
