- Abstract
- As a tracking technology, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is now widely applied to enhance the context awareness of enterprise information systems. Such awareness provides great opportunities to facilitate business process automation and thereby improve operation efficiency and accuracy. With the aim to incorporate business logics into RFID-enabled applications, this book chapter addresses how RFID technologies impact current business process management and the characteristics of object-oriented business process modelling. This chapter first discusses the rationality and advantages of applying object-oriented process modelling in RFID applications, then addresses the requirements and guidelines for RFID datamanagement and processmodelling. Two typical solutions are introduced to further illustrate the modelling and incorporation of business logics/business processes into RFID edge systems. To demonstrate the applicability of these two approaches, a detailed case study is conducted within a distribution centre scenario.

U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Small Business Accountability Update
Chairwoman Velazquez and distinguished members of the Committee: It is an honor to be testifying before you for the first time as the Administrator of the SBA.
Given the Obama Administration's mandate to eliminate and prevent waste, fraud, and abuse in Government programs, I am pleased to have the opportunity to testify at my first of the three annual Committee hearings on this topic. I consider this to be one of my most important responsibilities as Administrator.
As you know, small businesses account for a large percentage of new American jobs every year. Also, approximately half of American workers either own or work for a small business. And small businesses will continue to drive innovation, competitiveness, and the creation of 21st-century jobs.
We know that these are tough times for small businesses, making the SBA's mission more important than ever.
We maintain a lending portfolio that supports nearly $90 billion, mostly in loan guarantees.
We are charged with ensuring that at least 23% of federal government contracts are given to small businesses.
We have a strong, nationwide network of more than 2,000 employees and 14,000 SBA-affiliated counselors who help entrepreneurs and small business owners create and grow their businesses.
And, we currently have more than 2,000 on-call employees who stand ready to help in the event of a disaster.
The SBA is committed to the principles of integrity, accountability, and effectiveness in all of these programs. These principles are at the core of who we are and what we do as an Agency.
The Recovery Act, which was passed with your help, is a great example of this commitment. Since the Act passed, the SBA has supported nearly $7 billion in lending approvals to small businesses. Weekly loan dollar volumes have risen over 45% compared to the weeks leading up to the Recovery Act. Also, lenders are becoming more active with SBA lending, with more than 750 now participating who had not made a loan since October 2008. More than half of those had not made a loan since at least 2007.
As you can see on the chart, nearly all of the SBA-designated funds are now in place to support our Recovery Act efforts. We are very pleased that these programs are already helping entrepreneurs and small business owners retain and create thousands of jobs while stimulating our economy.
One of the first actions I took upon becoming Administrator was to make sure that a senior-level Risk Management Team was in place for overseeing the rollout of these Recovery Act programs. Small teams in each program area conducted an extensive risk assessment and analysis. Then, the senior-level team came together and developed a framework to prioritize and evaluate these risks in crafting risk mitigation plans. The Office of the Inspector General worked collaboratively with us to finalize the initial plans, and these plans continue to evolve and adapt as we make progress in mitigating risk and as program risks change. These efforts continue today as we carefully monitor all Recovery Act programs to help ensure that taxpayer dollars are being spent wisely and transparently.
The rollout of America's Recovery Capital "ARC" loans is a good example of our commitment to manage risk in a conscientious way. This brand new program was designed for a specific purpose and a unique time. As a "bridge over troubled waters" for struggling but viable small businesses, the ARC loan program was not in the SBA's traditional risk profile.
With ARC, we were charged with creating a loan program that was 100% backed by the SBA with zero interest costs for the borrower. We knew from the start that these parameters would result in a considerably higher default rate than our traditional programs. In addition, we knew that targeting struggling-but-viable businesses would require a highly-tailored program design. We also knew that it would require extensive lender outreach and education to make it work.
Our staff put in extraordinary amounts of time and energy to ensure that this program would be both responsible to taxpayers and beneficial for these uniquely-situated small businesses. We worked carefully to develop a new and complex model for this program. We also conducted a rigorous risk management exercise in preparation for offering these loans.
Importantly, we reached out to lenders for feedback to ensure that ARC loans would be a product that they would offer in the marketplace. In fact, we trained lenders from about 1,300 institutions in the weeks leading up to the rollout.
As a result, small businesses across 47 states have benefited from ARC loans in the first six weeks of the program, putting more than $26 million in the hands of small business owners. Volume in the ARC loan program continues to increase each week.
The high level of discipline, responsibility, and accountability instilled as part of the Recovery Act is now the model that we are applying to all SBA programs and resources.
The senior members of the SBA leadership team are actively addressing outstanding and emerging issues related to waste, fraud, and abuse, in a highly-systematic way, with a top priority on the concerns brought to us by the GAO and the IG.
We are currently focused on ensuring that accountability and transparency are the foundation for all external SBA programs and activities involving access to capital, lender oversight, government contracting, disaster assistance, and more. In addition, we are continually testing and evaluating our internal operating procedures to ensure that our financial management, information technology, and other agency-wide systems are functioning efficiently and effectively.
Optimizing operations is crucial in areas such as disaster assistance. We have made many strides in this area, such as hiring more full-time and on-call employees, acquiring "surge" space to prepare for a major catastrophe, increasing capacity, improving technology, shortening processing times, and more. Also, we continue to put stronger muscle behind marketing and outreach efforts, Electronic Loan Application processing, and other tools that help us reach out directly to communities affected by disaster.
Overall, there are a number of issues that still need to be addressed. Many of these problems built up over a number of years and they will not be solved in a matter of days or even weeks – but they will indeed be solved. Through fact-based analyses and metrics, we will continue to weed out wasteful spending, mismanagement and any elements that might lead to cultures of fraud, abuse, or – just as importantly – complacency in guarding against these problems.
Madam Chairwoman, my vision is that the SBA will operate in a way that allows each of our programs to meet the expectations of Congress and taxpayers. We are committed to providing measurable results for America's entrepreneurs and small business owners, and I look forward to working with the distinguished members of this Committee to make that happen.
I welcome any questions, concerns and comments about any of our programs or efforts.

Skolars secure berth in inaugural Northern Rail Bowl
Posted 27 March 2013 - 01:39 PM
Despite having their final game of the Northern Rail Cup group stages postponed due to adverse weather, the Skolars are already guaranteed to finish top of Group B and will meet the winners of Group A in the Bowl Final, which will be played as part of the historic Northern Rail Finals Day. The Skolars also remain in contention to contest the main event on Finals Day, the 2013 Northern Rail Cup, and will join all 14 Kingstone Press Championship clubs alongside the winners of Group A in the knock-out stages which begin on the weekend of May 18 and 19.
Their opponents in the Bowl will be either North Wales Crusaders or Oldham as Group A goes down to the last match to determine the league positions and finalist. Oldham won a bruising encounter against a courageous South Wales Scorpions side at the weekend to keep themselves in with a chance of progressing.
"On behalf of the RFL I'd like to congratulate London Skolars on securing their place in the Northern Rail Bowl," said Rimmer. "London Skolars continue to work hard and have established a strong identity within their local community, with the Friday Night Lights fixture a particular highlight of the Rugby League calendar. It is a just reward that the club are now in with a chance of securing some silverware – although I am certain they will also be hoping to go ever further in the competition.
"The geographical diversity now reflected in its make-up has seen many new players brought into the competition and yet each team has remained competitive. On that basis the Northern Rail Cup, even before it enters the sudden-death stages, has been tremendously successful. The competition this season has produced some fantastic Rugby League with every team registering points. We have already seen some fantastic action in the Northern Rail Cup so far and I feel certain that the action on Finals Day, which will deliver two games of top class Rugby League, will continue to establish this competition's reputation as one of the most entertaining around."
Should either London Skolars or the winners of Group A reach the Northern Rail Cup final, the club placed second in their respective group will play in the Northern Rail Bowl final.

Predictions for the future -
Crusaders RL to get a franchise for 2012 onwards -WRONG
Widnes Vikings also to get a franchise - RIGHT
Crusaders RL to do the double over Widnes and finish five places ahead of them -WRONG
Widnes Vikings NOT to dominate rugby league in years to come! STILL TO COME
I promise to pay �10 to the charity of Bomb Jacks choice if Widnes Millionaires finish above the battling underdogs Crusaders RL. I OWE A TENNER!

Now I know scheduling is the responsibility of the RFL and so what on earth were they thinking of? How utterly stupid.
Crusaders have to lose at Hemel by 66 points if they are to miss out on the final. Possible I suppose but very unlikely, although Crusaders, should they beat West Hull, will have a Challenge cup tie 2 days before they are due to go to Hemel.
Posted 27 March 2013 - 05:43 PM
It will be interesting to see which club of Crusaders and Oldham get through.

Now I know scheduling is the responsibility of the RFL and so what on earth were they thinking of? How utterly stupid.
Just to be clear, it is a rearranged date. They were supposed to play last weekend but it was postponed because of the bad weather. That is the best alternative date as it could at least be a free weekend if both clubs get knocked out of the Challenge Cup, any other date would be a few days from a league match instead.
Posted 27 March 2013 - 09:53 PM
I hope North Wales win this competition seeing as they have produced their own players and are not dependent on SL dual registered players as are Skolars.
Interestingly in London and SE we all share players. Skolars run teams from U9s to U19s, reserves and first team also very active in teams at MXU, LMU & Southgate. 250 plus players. The structure in London & SE is we all feed players into the Broncos academy structure and players come out the other side and then feed back into the various levels of the game. In terms of the duals they are all lads who are mostly fringe and sit with the squad for most of the season. Not really drop in and drop out. As to Crusaders not sure there are too many that have been produced through their systems?? They are pretty close to the NW player pools so dont need to really. Not sure the critiscm stacks up.

" Hostel is mostly average, but has some serious noise problems. Booked a bed in a 6 person dorm, but the walls of the room do not reach the ceiling so noise from other dorms as well as the reception/common area comes straight in at all hours, not to mention noise from the street, ultimately you should use earplugs if you want to rest well. With regards to the shower, true you do have to pull a rope for the water to come on, but I was not bothered much since hot water was quick and plentiful. "- Nimetön

8 Days of Christmas Eye Makeup Tutorials: Day 8
On hindsight, even though it has been fun and challenging posting a new look every single day for 8 consecutive days, I should have done it 8 days BEFORE Christmas, instead of after. Christmas is long gone and everybody's in the mood to welcome 2012, yet I'm still churning out Christmas looks (You can definitely use them for other occasions, of course!). Lol. But I have to keep to my word and commit to what I promised.
Today's eye makeup look will come with a step-by-step tutorial since it is a much coveted look created using the Vertical Gradient Method of eyeshadow application.

Thank you to Devon Energy Corporation - a sponsor of the meeting.
The University of Oklahoma (OU) is the largest public university in Oklahoma, enrolling over 24,000 students from more than 100 countries. The South-Central Section meeting will include two days of technical presentations (oral and poster) and student activities, plus a very active premeeting program — six field trips and five workshops (two designed especially for teachers) are planned. Three "less"-technical tours of campus geoscience collections also will be held. In addition, GSA Members and guests will want to visit the Fred Jones Museum of Art, which houses the largest collection of French Impressionist paintings ever donated to a public university. The Sam Noble Oklahoma Museum of Natural History displays the largest dinosaur skull (Pentaceratops) ever found and the oldest piece of art found in North America. Bizzell Library houses a world-class history of science collection. The Geologic Gallery of the School of Geology and Geophysics and the Laurence S. Youngblood Energy Library in Sarkeys Energy Center contain superb mineral and fossil displays. Finally, no visit to Norman would be complete without visiting the Barry Switzer Center, celebrating the seven-time national football champion OU Sooners. For more information on what to see and do on the OU campus, visit www.visit.ou.edu/vc_vtstart.htm.
The school of geology and geophysics (SGG) currently has 15 academic faculty members, 78 undergraduate students, and 75 graduate students. The vision of the SGG is to be "a preeminent center of excellence for study and research in geology and geophysics, with emphasis in applied areas such as energy. Students shall be provided with a high quality education that stresses the fundamentals of science within a creative, interdisciplinary environment, and that prepares them for success in their professional careers by instilling knowledge, skills, confidence, pride, principled leadership, and the ability to contribute to the wise stewardship of the earth and its resources."
The Oklahoma Geological Survey (OGS) is an applied-research and public-service agency authorized by the state constitution. Its charter is to investigate the land, water, mineral, and energy resources of the state and to disseminate the results of those investigations. The OGS engages in a wide variety of field investigations throughout the state either independently or with other state and federal agencies.
Norman is located 20 miles south of Oklahoma City (OKC) near the boundary between the Cherokee Shelf and the Anadarko Basin. Surface strata consist of Leonardian (Lower Permian) redbeds overlain by Quaternary deposits associated with the Canadian River. Outcrops of the Garber-Wellington aquifer, a principal source of water for the OKC metro area currently being studied because of its locally high arsenic content, occur on the east side of Norman.
OU is located just south of the center of Norman and is easily accessed by Interstate 35. The meeting will be held at the Oklahoma College of Continuing Education (OCCE) just south of the main campus. Registration parking will be immediately south of the OCCE Forum building and north of Timberdell Avenue. [ map of OU campus ]
A block of rooms has been reserved at the Sooner Hotel and Suites, located next to the OCCE. Rooms cost about US$55 per room (1-2 beds per room) per night at the hotel and about US$91 per cottage (2 rooms; 1 bed per room) per night. To obtain these rates, you must phone the hotel at +1-405-329-2270 or +1-888-777-0477 and state that you are affiliated with OU/GSA. The deadline for reserving rooms is 1 February 2006.

Ken Luza, Oklahoma Geological Survey, +1-405-325-3031, fax +1-405-325-7069.
- This half-day session will focus on the many challenges and issues that are associated with the Tar Creek Superfund Site in northeastern Oklahoma. Some of these challenges and issues include size (>41 mi2), land ownership, legal issues, elevated blood-lead levels, data availability, a large number of mine and mill-waste sites, ongoing subsidence, and oversight and accountability.
Theme Sessions
- 1. Drivers of Regional Water Management: Who's Stopping to Ask Directions?
Todd Halihan, Oklahoma State University, +1-405-744-6358, fax +1-405-744-7841.
- Sound water management requires an integration of scientific, political, and social expertise in order to derive long-term management plans. Most water management is reactive, based on lack of supply due to drought or population increases. This theme session examines ways that are being employed to make water management follow a coherent map toward sustainable supplies on a regional scale.
- 2. Geology and Public Policy.
Melanie Barnes, Texas Tech University, +1-806-742-3204, fax +1-806-742-0100.
- Over the last year, the Gulf of Mexico has weathered three major hurricanes (Ivan, Katrina, and Rita) that have had a direct impact on our energy infrastructure. With this theme session, we would like to initiate a dialogue about the role geologists have, can, and should play in the crafting of a sound energy policy. An integration of scientific, political, and social expertise is required in order to derive a sound long-term energy policy for our nation. Papers on all aspects of this issue are welcome. We plan to design the session to encourage interaction between the presenters and the audience.
- 3. Undergraduate Research Poster Session.

Iris Totten, Kansas State University, +1-785-532-6724, fax +1-785-532-5159.
- This session will focus on issues of educating the K-16 population on evolution and intelligent design (ID) in the classrooms and communities. States including Kansas and Georgia are experiencing great controversies in their schools regarding equal time for creationism and ID and evolution. In August 2005, the Kansas School Board of Education voted 6-4 to include greater criticism of evolution in its school science standards. This session is intended to engage the audience in a discussion regarding the consequence of these controversies to our K-16 science programs, to share strategies for promoting the understanding of evolution in our classrooms and communities, and to further define the role of the geosciences with respect to this controversial national issue.

Sat., 4 Mar. Noel Osborn, Oklahoma Water Resources Board, +1-405-530-8800, fax +1-405-530-8900.
- The Arbuckle-Simpson aquifer, which underlies more than 500 mi2 in south-central Oklahoma, is the source of several springs and streams, including those in the Chickasaw National Recreation Area and Blue River, Pennington Creek, and Honey Creek. The field trip will examine the geologic histories of the Arbuckle and Hunton anticlines, and how the different structural and geologic frameworks can affect aquifer characteristics and groundwater flow. A multidisciplinary team of researchers from various agencies and universities will discuss the techniques they are employing to understand the highly fractured carbonate aquifer and associated springs and streams. Field stops will include outcrops, streams, a climatic station, an artesian well, and scenic Turner Falls.

- Petrologists utilize or sometimes rely on texture to infer the conditions and history of crystallization in igneous rocks, but our knowledge of textural interpretation comes mostly from two sources: (1) what we were taught as students, and (2) intuition. A third source of understanding is available from a rather small number of important experimental studies on the crystallization of silicate melts at compositions and conditions relevant to natural igneous systems.
- The purpose of this one-day trip is to view a variety of textures in granitic and gabbroic rocks exposed in the Wichita Igneous Province, southwest Oklahoma, and as individuals, to evaluate the geologic history of each texture based on (1) our existing knowledge base, and then (2) on the basis of several pertinent experimental summaries that will be distributed at the beginning of the field trip. Each participant will be encouraged to develop and present his or her own interpretation of the rock texture, which may include the history of crystallization, the structural environment or rheology of the melt, qualitative estimates of intensive (e.g., P, T, aH2O, aO2) and extensive variables, and so forth. Some of the textures we will see and evaluate in granite include hypidiomorphic granular, linear or cuspate patterns of quartz and feldspar, orbicular, pegmatitic, granophyric, spherulitic, miarolitic. Those in gabbro include lamination (trachytic/compaction) and ophitic and heteradcumulate textures.
- Min: 5; max.: 20. Cost: US$60, includes transportation, lunch, snacks, and a field guide.
- 5. Stratigraphy and Paleontology of the Upper Mississippian Barnett Shale of Texas and the Caney Shale of Southern Oklahoma.
Fri.-Sun., 3-5 Mar. (three-day field trip). Darwin Boardman, Oklahoma State University, +1-405-744-6358, fax +1-405-744-7841, James Puckette, Oklahoma State University, +1-405-744-6358.
- The purpose of this field trip is to examine the stratigraphy and paleontology of the Upper Mississippian shale formations of the southern mid-continent (Barnett Shale of Texas, Caney Shale of Oklahoma). The Barnett Shale has become the largest nontraditional gas play in the United States yet detailed lithologic and paleontologic analysis remains to be completed. Additionally, the Caney Shale (roughly Barnett equivalent) is equally lacking in detailed analysis. This field trip will focus on both lithic analysis along with ammonoid and conodont biostratigraphy.
- Min: 10; max.: 40. Cost: US$300, includes transportation, two nights lodging, two breakfasts, and guidebook. Participants are responsible for lunches and dinners.

Seat covers have a strap that holds the cover on the Ridgeline. This makes it very difficult to install. Required 2 people about 3 hrs to get them installed.(a little blood was required as well). The placement required removal or loosening of most of the plastic panels around the seats. Very difficult to work the side straps into position.

It was his most famous speech, and the most memorable moment of the March on Washington.
All eyes were on the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. on August 28, 1963, as he delivered his "I Have a Dream" speech to a crowd of 250,000.
But one photographer, there to document the event, trained his camera away from the civil rights icon and toward the crowd.
The result was a visual document showcasing the diversity of marchers who gathered that day.
"This is the Day: The March on Washington," is a collection of 75 of Leonard Freed's photographs -- most published for the first time -- taken before, during and after the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.
Freed's most recognizable image is likely a photo of King glad-handing supporters in Baltimore after receiving the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964.
But in "This is the Day," there is only one photograph of King, an atmospheric shot taken from afar.
Most of the images focus on anonymous marchers: black, white; union and nonunion; secular, religious; people from all over America, and from many different walks of life.
"Leonard Freed's moving photography offers still images of an America at once frozen in time and marching restlessly to its multicultural and multiracial future through the lens of a visionary artist," Michael Eric Dyson writes in the foreword to the book.
Freed was an American Jew, born in Brooklyn, who spent time in Europe. He was living in Berlin in 1961 when he took a photo of an unnamed African-American soldier standing guard by the Berlin Wall.
He was haunted by that image, according to Paul Farber, a contributing author to "This is the Day."
"(To Freed) that encounter was a contradiction of American culture: that a soldier could guard a country's freedom abroad, but would be denied those rights at home."
It compelled Freed to return to the United States to photograph the story of race in America.
Freed's wife, Brigitte, recalled those images when she heard then-candidate Barack Obama say: "I am here because somebody marched."
Those words prompted her to revisit her husband's archives from the March on Washington. Her husband died in 2006, but she hoped his images of that day would live on.
She worked with Farber, a visiting assistant professor of writing at Haverford College, to curate the project, and "This is the Day: The March on Washington" was born.
In this edited conversation, CNN spoke to Farber about Leonard Freed's photographs from the march and the importance of images in communicating the message of the civil rights movement.
CNN: As a co-curator of the project, how did you and Ms. Brigitte decide which images to select? What criteria was used?
Farber: What we did was look (at photographs) that Leonard had marked with a wax pencil, meaning this was an image he liked or would like to explore.
We also sought images from the perspective of now, decades later, which images might stand out and be important to a contemporary viewer -- especially the ones that give us a view of the faces of the crowd.
The goal was always that Leonard's own vision might be brought out from the day, but also that other images might participate in a broadened cultural awareness of the sweeping diversity and impact of the march.
CNN: What would you say is the most powerful image from this collection? Why?
Farber: One in particular that stands out is of young women in zip-up NAACP jackets standing at the base of the Washington Monument with American flags waving behind them.
I think what you get a sense of is it took people out of their everyday circumstances and brought them together, here, against this monumental landscape of the National Mall. This was the people's gathering place. And using their presence as a way to create a collective -- that stands out -- and states belonging. The photograph to me is a feeling of a belonging.
CNN: Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech is perhaps the most enduring symbol of the march. What do the photos reveal that history often forgets?

What's going on here?…Let the man pour beer.
I was just informed that there is a petition circulating to ensure that Rockies Super Vendor Captain Earthman is allowed to serve beer at Salt River Fields at Talking Stick.
Captain Earthman has been a fixture at spring training in Tucson and at Coors Field for years.
From what I'm told the Captain hasn't received the phone call stating that he has a job in the new stadium come Feb 26th.
We Rockies fans cherish the few traditions we have. Captain Earthman happens to be one of them. You've got to love the way he calls all little kids "Future Beer Drinkers".
Or Earthman's standard line "Ain't no sissy sipp'n".
One of the great things about Captain Earthman is that if you have his business card all you have to do is give him a ring, tell him your seat location and what you want to drink and he magically appears with a frosty cold beverage and a few words of wisdom.
Here he is moving at sonic speed.
Below is a link to the petition:
Let Captain Earthman pour beer in Salt River Fields at Talking Stick
Just fill out your name and email address. Then you will be sent an email with a link. Click on the link and it will add your name to the petition. If you don't see the email right away check your junk folder. It's really easy.
Please give Captain Earthman your support. He's always been there to support us.
I'm "D" The Rockpile Ranter and I believe in this cause.

People forget the important job these guys do every game. Not only do they pry good money from our pocket for frothy beverages, they save us valuable game action loss time while traversing the stairs, concession lines or even costing us spillage on the way back to our seats.
They are in-seat game hosts that serve happiness…8 ounces at a time.
Hopefully the team just lost his number, or they sent his message by Pony Express, or…he missed the call somehow.
I truly hope the Rockies continue the Capt. Earthman tradition.
Baseball is all about traditions, even in the stands.
Rays Renegade
Hey Don, what did you do to piss off the guy that runs these blogs??? Not only did he change the standings without any mention of changing them, he left you at number 2, moved the guy that he had at number one waaayyyyyyyy down the list, and moved #3 OVER you up to number one lol. What's sad, is this idiot works for Major League Baseball (at least I think he is considered to work for MLB). He screwed up, and didn't have the guts to say anything about it. Not only did he completely change the rankings, but he didn't mention one word about it on MLBlogs. I was going to start my own blog, but when you have morons like that running the show, I don't think I will waste my time. Maybe you should move your blog to somewhere that the guy running the show doesn't have an agenda against you. Either way, don't stop writing your blog, even if it is on here, just don't ever expect to hit #1.
RAYSRENEGADE-Well said, Captain Earthman is as much a part of baseball as is batting practice. Please put your name on the petition so we can keep our Rockies traditions.
LALOSES-I don't know man, the Rays Renegade kicks butt and I have no issues with play'n second fiddle to him. The whole thing does seem a bit odd though. An explanation would be nice, otherwise how can you trust the blog rankings? No worries, I'm for real, this blog is for real, and one day I'll get to tapdance on #1 for a while…Maybe?

Key Features
- Personal accounts of research in organic chemistry.
- Written by internationally renowned scientists.
- Details state of the art organic synthesis.
A classic in the area of organic synthesis, Strategies and Tactics in Organic Synthesis provides a forum for investigators to discuss their approach to the science and art of organic synthesis. Rather than a simple presentation of data or a second-hand analysis, we are given stories that vividly demonstrate the power of the human endeavour known as organic synthesis and the creativity and tenacity of its practitioners. First hand accounts of each project tell of the excitement of conception, the frustration of failure and the joy experienced when either rational thought and/or good fortune give rise to successful completion of a project.
In this book we learn how synthesis is really done and are educated, challenged and inspired by these stories, which portray the idea that triumphs do not come without challenges. We also learn that we can meet challenges to further advance the science and art of organic synthesis, driving it forward to meet the demands of society, in discovering new reactions, creating new designs and building molecules with atom and step economies that provide solutions through function to create a better world.
Organic chemists; libraries at all colleges and universities and chemical and pharmaceutical companies.

A blog about my journey with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis and Immune Dysfunction Syndrome including HHV 6, EBV, C. Pneumonia, Bartonella, Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome, and Biotoxin Illness

Time and My Thousand Mile Journey
Time is no longer about fitting in all I can in a day. It's no longer measured by hours of the day but more like Seasons of the year or split up between morning and night.
As some of you know I have a severe case of ME. My doctor says I have 'true ME' and I've been told by two doctor's that I will never recover but the most I can hope for are small improvements. While I don't like being told that I also appreciate it because it has allowed me to grieve for the lost hope of a cure or a full recovery and in grieving I've come to a place of acceptance. It has been a long, difficult journey.
In 2009 (I think) I found out that my Aunt and Uncle were going to be celebrating their 50 year wedding anniversary this year. They wanted to have a celebration along with a family reunion in an area that happens to be 500 miles away from where I live.
At the time I thought it would take nothing short of a miracle for me to be able to go. In 2009 and part of 2010 I was bedbound and had difficulty being upright for any length of time so traveling 500 miles seemed out of the question. I started anti-virals in Sept of 2010 which brought me from being bedbound to mostly housebound.
I was grateful but still thought it would be impossible for me to make the trip. I felt deeply saddened that I would miss another family event because of this disease and resigned myself to having to stay home. I kept the invitation in a place I could see it and prayed daily that somehow I'd be able to go for I wanted nothing more than to be in a room with the people I loved most in this world. I'd heard that everyone was going to be there which made me want to be there even more.
I knew it would be the last time we would all be together like that and it felt critically important that I go. I needed to see them it had been so long. I think I've mentioned before that I've always felt different and have been a bit different from the majority culture so I never felt I fit in anywhere while I was growing up. My extended family is the only place I felt okay about myself. I say all this because they gave me the biggest gift growing up. They loved me for who I am. And in doing so, helped me to accept myself. They have given me so much more and I can't do justice to how much I've learned from every single one of them.
My Aunt's and Uncle were praying that I'd be able to attend. Somehow. Then my sister and brother-in-law said we could use their van to travel up and back thereby making the trip more doable.. They took the seats out allowing me to lay down for the whole trip. I spoke with my ME doctor who said that it's possible that by going I could do permanent damage to my system but that sometimes one has to do something for one's Soul. So I went back and forth about whether or not to go. I didn't see how I'd be able to travel 500 miles since traveling 75 miles to see my doctor is too much. My doctor recommended taking extra klonopin to help my nervous system and brain deal with the sensory stuff that occurs with travel.
The decision felt very difficult because on the one hand I was worried that if I traveled I would become bedbound again and I just didn't think I could handle that again. On the other hand my heart and Soul needed to see my family and I couldn't imagine not going.
The event took place in mid-August on a Saturday. If I was going to go I needed to decide by that Thursday because we would need to take 2 days to get up there. By Thursday morning I'd decided I shouldn't take the chance with my health especially since I'd worked so hard to go from being bedbound to housebound and I didn't want to risk losing those gains.
At 3:00 that afternoon I decided we should go so we did. It was a rough trip physically. It took over 12 hours to get there (split up over 2 days). The ride in the van was tougher than I thought it would be even laying down. At one point we drove over a rough patch of road that was under construction and I thought I would vomit because the movement was rattling my system.
When we finally made it there I crashed badly. That Saturday morning I felt so bad physically I didn't see how I'd be able to attend the celebration that afternoon even though I was right in town. I even said let's just start driving home there's now way I'm going to make it.
Somehow I did. I took it literally one step at a time, one hour at a time. We arrived at the celebration and I was deeply moved at being with my family again. I think my love for them along with the Grace of the Divine helped me make it til the end of the evening.
For 6 miraculous hours I felt free of this disease. I had some rough moments where I thought I was going to pass out but luckily there was a chair nearby. Mostly I felt such love for my family and love from them. I was in heaven.
I felt like Cinderella getting to go to the Ball. It was the first time I'd been around that many people in over 4 years.
It was only by the Grace of a Higher Power that I was able to do this.
I've been crashed ever since getting home over 6 weeks ago. It's been a hard crash but my heart is full. And I'm eternally grateful that I got to see them. What a gift that was.
(Please pardon any misspellings, grammatical errors, etc....My brain is still struggling)

Wow!! That is awesome, you are so brave!!! I am terrified of what might happen if I try going beyond my front door .... and you travelled all that way AND went to a social function!!! That gives me hope that anything is possible. I hope that after 6 weeks of being crashed you come out of it very soon.Thanks for sharing, it's and inspiration. x

What an incredible story! So amazing what prayers can do!
I especially relate to the heart and soul part. There are simply times that we have to do things that we know are "bad" for our bodies to fill the rest of us up.
Praying your crash will ease soon and that you will bask in the joy you have from making the trip.

I do understand.I've done things for my soul's sake at times, too, when I knew I would pay. My only remaining family is that far away, too, but I just don't think I could take that big of a leap. I'm glad you did. I applaud your courage.

That's so awesome. I'm so glad you went. My parents moved to Alaska (I'm from Houston) and I go up there once or twice a year. I do the same thing...crash when I get there at first. Then, though, my body somewhat adjusts and I'm able to enjoy being with my husband and parents at the same time again- and enjoy seeing the sites of Alaska. I'm leaving in about a month- please pray for me with the cold weather!
