Loss Lecture Series to Feature Zhao, Panel
The 2013 Loss Science Lecture Series will feature Dr. Fang Zhao, Professor of Pharmaceutical Sciences at the Wegmans School of Pharmacy. The lecture will take place on Wednesday, October 16, at 7:00 p.m. in Basil 135. It is free and open to the public.
Zhao will present "Targeted Drug Delivery – The Quest for the Magic Bullet." Modern medications can work wonders, although sometimes that comes with unpleasant side effects. During the last decade, several drug delivery platforms have demonstrated great promise, such as liposomes, antibodies, polymer conjugates, and functionalized nanoparticles. Zhao's talk will review the design principles of these systems and discuss the potential benefits and challenges.
Zhao obtained her B.S. in Chemistry from the University of Kansas in 1993, and her Ph.D. in Pharmaceutical Chemistry from the same institution in 1996. Prior to joining Fisher, she was a formulation scientist in the pharmaceutical industry for over 11 years, first at Bristol-Myers Squibb, and later with Bausch & Lomb. During that time, she developed various pharmaceutical dosage forms for clinical trials and commercial manufacturing. At Fisher, Zhao teaches pharmacokinetics, pharmaceutics, drug delivery, and extemporaneous compounding. Her research efforts continue to center around drug product development and characterization. In addition, she has received a number of research grants and contracts from government, private foundations, and pharmaceutical companies. She has published over 20 journal articles, patents, and book chapters. Most recently, her article published in Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences was among the top 10 downloaded articles of 2012.
Immediately following the lecture, Zhao will facilitate a panel for the Q&A portion of the lecture. Panelists will include Brian R. Rohrs, Ph.D., Director, Pharmaceutical Product Development, Bausch & Lomb; Bob Lincoln, Development Chemist, Unither Manufacturing LLC; and Lisa Simpson, Senior Manager, Global Project Management, Bausch & Lomb.
Rohrs received his B.S. in Chemistry from the University of Rochester in 1983, and his Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1988. He began his career in the pharmaceutical industry at The Upjohn Company, and worked at Pharmacia and Pfizer in the areas of analytical chemistry, dissolution and drug release, pre-formulation characterization, and formulation development. Since moving to Bausch & Lomb in 2005, he now specializes in ophthalmic formulations. Rohrs has numerous patents and publications, and has lectured on a variety of topics related to the pharmaceutical sciences, including drug delivery, dissolution, in vitro/in vivo correlations, and content uniformity. He is a member of the editorial board for Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences and Dissolution Technologies, and has served as Chair of the American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists (AAPS) Ophthalmic Drug Delivery and Disposition Focus Group.
Lincoln graduated from the University of Rochester in 1980 with a B.S. in Chemistry. He has worked for Unither Manufacturing, LLC (formerly known as Pennwalt Pharmaceuticals) for the past 33 years. In his role, Lincoln is responsible for the development and validation of analytical test methods, which support manufacturing processes and current analytical testing performed in all site laboratories. He specializes in many techniques of instrumental analyses. In addition, he has worked on many different new drug applications (NDAs) and biological licensing applications (BLAs). Lincoln has trained and transferred testing to laboratories in Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, UK, Mexico, and Japan.
Simpson received a B.S. in Biological Sciences from the State University of New York at Buffalo, where she concentrated on Environmental Biology. Shortly after graduation, she started a research and development (R&D) career at Bausch & Lomb, and has been with the company ever since. For about a decade, she worked in various R&D labs, then participated in an Executive Program at RIT and received a M.S. in Product Development. For the last 15 years, she has been a Program Manager, working on a variety of eye care projects, with a majority of them falling in the pharmaceutical eye care area.
The Robert and Janice Loss Science Lecture Series was established in 2003 to promote the study of the sciences among high school and college students.

WASHINGTON, DC -- In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, Woodcrafter Kits, Inc., Yarmouth, Maine, today announced a voluntary recall of Model LP-205 Musical Mobiles due to excessive lead in the paint on this toy. The red paint on the clear plastic rings of the toy contains approximately 8% lead. This paint flakes off easily, posing a lead poisoning hazard to children. Current CPSC regulations permit no more than 0.06% lead in paint.Neither CPSC nor Woodcrafter know of any lead poisoning incidents associated with this toy. The firm received a single complaint regarding flaking paint, and its investigation revealed that the paint contained excessive lead.This recall involves only the model LP-205 Musical Mobile Toy, which is designed to be attached to a crib rod and which features two smiling satellites slowly orbiting over the child as music plays. Other toys in the Little Playmates series and Musical Mobiles with rings in colors other than a combination of clear and red are not involved.A total of 364 units were manufactured and distributed nationwide. All but 107 toys have been located by Woodcrafter. The toys sold at retail for $20.00.Consumers owning the recalled units should immediately take them from their children's reach and return them to the store where purchased for a complete refund or exchange. They may also return the toy to Woodcrafter Kits, Inc., 42A North Elm Street, Yarmouth, Maine 04096 for a refund of $20.00, plus postage.For further information, consumers may call CPSC's toll-free hotline number 800-638-CPSC.

I went to a LC group support meeting through the hospital my daughter was born at and had very cracked, bleeding, painful nipples and the LC's were very shocked that I was still bfing. I have since then used my breast milk to help the pain, and Lansinoh® Brand Lanolin and airing my nipples out. I have seen a great deal of healing, but my nipples are sore to the touch and and remain sore throughout my day . I am still having pain when my daughter is latching on but it seems to be bearable after about a minute or less...Is this normal? I am still unsure of myself if she is latching on right and why laying on my side in bed and bfing is so painful??? Please Help!

- Title
- Ladle eye detection using multi-variate image analysis
- Author(s)
- Brooks, Geoffrey; Subagyo
- Abstract
- Inert gas stirring is commonly used in ladle metallurgical operations. The stirring, induced either through porous plugs at the bottom of the furnace or by injection through a submerged lance, is used to achieve homogenization, accelerate chemical reactions and promote the removal of inclusions. The raised region where the gas discharges from the bath during argon stirring is usually called a spout. Where the spout is uncovered by slag, the region is either called the spout eye or ladle eye. The ladle eye region is significant in industrial practice, because it can be the site of undesirable reactions between the metal and air. For example, oxygen dissolved into molten steel from an exposed eye can increase the level of inclusions and work against sulfur removal. Ladle eyes are commonly induced on purpose during alloy addition, as the adding of alloys in the eye prevents losses through entrainment in the slag or entrapment in a slag crust. The eye is generally opened by manually raising the flow rate of the gas through an actuated valve. It can be difficult to achieve tight control of the ladle eye by manual control and eyes are often opened to quite wide diameters (>1m diameter) because of this problem. It is clear that control of spout or ladle eye size is important in operating a ladle operation, particularly, when critical grades of steels are being produced. Though, ladle or spout eye phenomena are important to modern ladle operation, there have been relatively few studies on the subject. This area has recently been a focus of study at McMaster University. This work originally focused on developing a semi-empirical prediction for ladle eye size, as function of flow rate and geometry. This stimulated the authors to design a new system for on line detection of ladle eyes. This work will also be described in this paper.

Spring Training Behind the Scences & My Take on the Latest News
I've told you all what my first two Spring Training games were like– in the "reporting" sense that is. I gave you some scouting reports (if those even classify as scouting reports), my projects, and a couple of cool stories. One of the most fun parts about a baseball game though, is the people that you meet and the conversations that you have. Baseball is baseball, but that entire experience of going to the ballpark is so special for a reason. It's not just the game, because you can just watch that on TV. There's that special tunnel experience, the bad overpriced food, and the people. Can you imagine what a baseball game would be like without the people?
use he has been feeling stiffness. I'm not too concerned though, I mean, he did say that once he gets loose that he is fine. Lowell is also saying that he feels better, not feeling the knife anymore. His first start should come soon.

Great entry! It's always cool to hear about what happened "behind the scenes"! And I'm so glad you get to go back this weekend! I hope you have a great time, take lots of pictures, and bring back more wonderful stories! Also, great job on the Timeout. That was really good.
It is fun talking to people at the ballpark. It seems that conversations with strangers flow more freely than they do outside the ballpark. I often go to ballgames by myself, and I always end up talking to the coolest people. Great post!
I loved you blog Elizabeth! It's sounds like you have a great time – and how weird – A fire drill! Have a great time this weekend – and look forward to hearing all about it! Oh – and can you tell the guys that HAVE to win the weekend series against the Yankees April 24-26? I have a wager with Scott – a Yankees blogger. All the details are up now on my blog – and I need all the help I can get! I don't want to be a Yankees Pro Blogger! Thanks!
Kaybee: Thanks so much!! I'll definitely bring back pictures. And I hope you can go to all your games too!
Kathy: It's easy talking to people at the ballpark because baseball is so easy to talk about. It's great isn't it?
Darion: Exactly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Julia: Oh my, I will definitely put a good word in! Lol.
I'm with you, Elizabeth. NO ONE is worth THAT much money! They need to pay the President of the United States (ANY President, not just Obama!) and teacher MUCH more than they do before ANY athlete is worth that much $$!!
Greg: They do need to rework the system huh? The question is how!
I'm sure the Masterson thing was just a type-o. Then again Red Sox.com says he is 250 pounds. I have no idea.
Bob: But it is weird right?
Glad you're going to Ft. Myers and hope you can swing by Tampa this weekend. But if not, have fun and take lots of pix!
I'm with you on Zazu (the one who shall remain nameless). I loved him, too. In the end – it's like a bad breakup – you wonder how someone you loved so much could say such nasty things. Then you realize you were in love with a big jerk. LOL
Hey, Elizabeth …
Nice behind the scenes descriptions of your time at the ballpark … It is always enjoyable watching and talking to other fans at baseball parks !!! … Great that you experienced a "rare moment during the game" of the Reds player rolling down the first base line !!! [I'm sure it was exciting to see] … Also, the "fire drill' before the game … Now, what was that all about? … That drill could have caused a panic, with everybody heading for the exits of the ballpark … [certainly very rare, and that's the first I heard of such an event] !!! …
Elizabeth, I feel your pain about Manny's comments yesterday !!! … It really was a disgrace the way Manny acted in Boston, just giving up on his teammates, the manager, coaches, the Boston organization, and Red Sox fans … Everyone in Boston always put up with his "Manny being Manny" act, and supported him — until he gave-up on everyone … It all is really a "shame", and the main reason why Manny did not get offers from other teams then the Dodgers !!! …
Finally, not very good news about the A-Rod injury !!! … I think this injury is much more serious than everyone in the Yankees organization is saying right now … It looks like A-Rod will have to have surgery at some point, and the recovery will take some time [up to four months] … So, I guess it's wait and see as to what happens !!!
Nice post, Elizabeth … and, cool picture at the end of the post !!!
— Jimmy [27NYY], "BY&L"
Jane: Doesn't look like I'm going this weekend. Don't want to take the chance of driving 3 hours and not getting tickets.
Jen: Yeah, I guess so! Blinded by my love for him I didn't see the real, ungrateful him.
Jimmy: I mean, A-Rod should just get it over with so it doesn't get any worse. I'm not just saying that so he'll be out for four months, but if he waits any longer, it could be longer. It was painful to watch Mike Lowell struggle through that.
A-Rod's torn labrum is fairly serious, he should probably get to sooner than later – that's the surgery that Utley had which he "may" be ready for Opening Day. That's still a 4 1/2 month recovery time… can someone say Beltre?
Elizabeth – I forgot to say before – Great job on the blog you wrote about Hyun Young over on Tom's blog! And sorry to see that you won't make it to Ft. Myers!
Hey, Elizabeth,
I agree … If A-Rod still experiences stiffness in his right hip area over the next week or so, he should def have the surgery "now" !!! … The recovery time will be about four months, but if A-Rod continues to play with the injury, he may do more damage to his hip — so, having the surgery at this time makes the most sense !!!
By the way, excellent interview with Hyun Young on Tom's "Timeout at the Plate" series on his blog !!! … That interview will get you ready for when you interview Jacoby Ellsbury, or other Red Sox players !!!
Take care, Elizabeth !!!
— Jimmy [27NYY],"BY&L"
Poor JD Drew. So much potential when he was coming up through the Cardinals' system, but he just cannot shake that injury bug.
I have a good friend who's a Red Sox fan. I took him to a Cards-Dodgers game not long after Manny joined the team, and my buddy continued to cheer him like he was still a member of the Sox. I hope Manny knows how loved he was in Boston; if not he really is delusional. We went through a similar thing here in St. Louis when Jim Edmonds ended up with the Cubs (ack!). He had issues with Tony LaRussa and some of the media guys here, but he kept that separate from the Cardinal fans. I think he knows how much he meant to these fans for 9 years.
Brian: Lol, we'll see how it affects his season.
Julia: Thanks, I'm glad that you enjoyed it!
Jimmy: Thanks, I can't wait to interview them.
Chris: I hope Manny realizes it as well.
Masterson's gotta have muscle…lots of it. Muscle weighs much more than fat.
And a fire drill? At a baseball stadium????
Hi Elizabeth,
A great blog! I agree with you about Manny. He'll never match what he had in Boston with the Dodgers, and they'll never win a championship. If he would rather be in the midst of mediocrity, so be it. So, as the saying goes, what goes around, comes around.
Caroline: You're probably right! Lots of muscle. And yeah, a fire drill! We didn't have to leave though.
Scott: Speaking words of wisdom there.
Isn't it interesting that A-Rod has really brought nothing but curses everywhere he lands. Hopefully in 2009, this "curse" will continue.
Manny is all about being Manny. The Dodgers just hope it puts "fannies" back in the seats. I just find contracts like these hard to take especially since so many are hurting in this economy.
Great job on the interview for Timeout at the Plate! I think you will be a very good sportswriter, if that is any indication. As far as Manny goes, is it just me or does it seem as though the Yankees were the only ones willing to give Boras and his clients what they wanted? All the players you noted: Sabathia, Burnett, and Teixeira were all Yankees' signings. Everyone else had to settle for whatever they could get, even Manny.
Aaron: What goes around, comes around right? It is a bit ridiculous the kind of money these guys are making during this economy. Hope you're enjoying the Spring!
Erin: Thanks!! I think the Yankees are the only ones capable of giving Boras and his clients what they ask for.
Actually the Sox I think can give Boras what he wants. At least they did this year. Well keep up the good work! Have a nice day by the way.


text: What can I do? I stored some EBM almost 6 months ago in my deep freeze when DD was only taking 2.5 -3 ounces. Now, she takes 4. I have a few bags that I need to use because of the 6 month rule but they are only 3 ounces. I sometimes give her cereal with BM but I wouldn't use 3 ounces...that's too small to give to the DCP...what should I do with it? Can I combine one ounce of fresh BM to make it a 4 ounce bottle?

At first glance, Aspen doesn't seem like it would pack that mean of a punch. Young moms in yoga pants chauffeur toddlers in expensive-looking strollers, men in fur coats sip coffee, and the Prada store radiates in the morning light. Sounds fairly innocent, right?

I was at an eighth-birthday party this spring for the son of a friend I moved to Crested Butte with 15 years ago. The kids all played soccer while the "adults" drank PBR in the shadow of Crested Butte Mountain. Rowan, the birthday boy, approached the picnic table and asked his mom, "Can I open my presents?" One of the gifts was a Magic 8 Ball, a classic toy that's been around since 1950. He unpackaged the 8 Ball with a throng of kids surrounding him. Then Rowan asked with heartfelt sincerity, "Will I be a pro skier?" He shook the ball.
Back in the day, Telluride produced over $60 million of gold, silver, zinc, copper, and lead. Though the last gold was extracted decades ago, it seems wherever you go in Telluride, mining still gets in your face. Riding the gondola, one can scan east to west from the ginormous, treacherously toxic tailings pile to the pickax-stuffed museum in town. Me, I'm over the mining heritage. In the end, it's just a bunch of rusted metal.
Pete Seibert, a veteran of the 10th Mountain Division, needed $1 million or so in 1961 to build his life's vision of the ultimate ski resort. He put together a package for investors: $10,000 got you shares in the unbuilt resort and four lifetime season passes for the family.
Aspen. It's one of the most riffed-on ski towns out there. From Aspen Extreme to Dumb and Dumber, Us Weekly to The New York Times, the widespread image of Aspen is a glitzy celebrity playground, where the billionaires pushed out the millionaires and where no regular Joe could possibly afford to live.
» Location: Telluride, Colo.
» Getting There: Unload Lift 12 and click out of your skis. Shoulder them or use a carrying strap (ask patrol in the shack beneath the High Camp restaurant) or backpack. Head up the ridge to your left. Take your time. Enjoy the views.

10 Nutrition Myths, Debunked
Some nutrition myths bounce around on crazy e-mail chain letters and pop up on goofy evening news reports. Others fuel the sale of rip-off diet books. Some are so accepted they seem hardwired into our brains. Take deep-fried foods, for example. They're universally bad for you, right? Well, no. When we challenged ourselves to explore whether fried foods could be made healthy, we discovered that, when done properly, fried foods don't have to be forever banished from a healthy diet.
The exercise inspired us to take on some other ingrained nutrition misconceptions. We talked with leading nutrition researchers, chefs, and food scientists and did some sleuthing of our own to debunk 10 myths so you can enjoy many once-forbidden foods without that old familiar twinge of guilt.

High Quality Desktop Wallpapaers
Julius Mordecai Pincas, (March 31, 1885 – June 5, 1930) known as Pascin, Jules Pascin, or the Prince of Montparnasse, was a Bulgarian painter.
He was born in Vidin, Bulgaria to a Spanish-Sephardic Jewish father and a Serbian-Italian mother. His early artistic training was in Vienna and Munich. He adopted the pseudonym Pascin (an anagram of Pincas) early in 1905, at about the same time that he began contributing drawings to Simplicissimus, a satirical magazine published in Munich. In December, 1905 he arrived in Paris, becoming part of the great migration of artistic creativity to that city at the start of the 20th century. In 1907 Pascin met Hermine Lionette Cartan David, also a painter, and they became lovers, living together until Pascin left for America on October 3, 1914. Hermine David stayed in Paris with her mother until, at Pascin's request, she too sailed to America on October 31, 1914. Pascin lived in the United States from 1914 to 1920, sitting out World War I, and while there he taught at the Telfair Academy[2][3] in Savannah, Georgia. He and Hermine painted in New York City as well as in Miami, New Orleans and Cuba. Pascin married Hermine David at city hall in New York City. The witnesses were Max Weber and Maurice Sterne, both painters living in New York and friends of Pascin. Pascin was granted American citizenship, but in France he became the symbol of the Montparnasse artistic community. Always in his bowler hat, he was a witty presence at Le Dôme café, Le Jockey club, and the other haunts of the area's bohemian society. Pascin made visits to Bulgaria in 1923/1924 and at an uncertain later date. Despite the constant partying, Pascin created thousands of watercolors and sketches, plus drawings and caricatures that he sold to various newspapers and magazines.
He studied the art of drawing at the Académie Colarossi and, like Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec before him, he drew upon his surroundings and his friends, both male and female, as subjects. He wanted to become a serious painter but in time he became deeply depressed over his inability to achieve critical success with his efforts. During the 1920s, Pascin mostly painted fragile petites filles, prostitutes waiting for clients, or models waiting for the sitting to end. His fleetingly rendered paintings sold readily, but the money he made was quickly spent. Famous as the host of numerous large and raucous parties in his flat, whenever he was invited elsewhere for dinner he arrived with as many bottles of wine as he could carry. He frequently led a large group of friends on summer picnics beside the River Marne, their excursions lasting all afternoon. According to his biographer, Georges Charensol, Scarcely had he chosen his table at the Dôme or the Sélect than he would be surrounded by five or six friends; at nine o'clock, when we got up to dinner, we would be 20 in all, and later in the evening, when we decided to go up to Montmartre to Charlotte Gardelle's or the Princess Marfa's—where Pascin loved to take the place of the drummer in the jazz band—he had to provide for 10 taxis. In his story, A Moveable Feast, Ernest Hemingway wrote a chapter titled With Pascin At the Dôme, recounting a night in 1923 when he had stopped off at Le Dôme and met Pascin escorted by two models. Hemingway's depiction of the events of that night are considered one of the defining images of Montparnasse at the time. Behind Pascin's panache lurked the terror of a tortured mind. Suffering from depression and alcoholism, driven to the wall by his own legend, according to art critic Gaston Diehl, he committed suicide on the eve of a prestigious solo show by slitting his wrists and hanging himself in his studio in Montmartre. On the wall he left a message written in his own blood that said good-bye to his lost love, Cecile (Lucy) Vidil Krohg.[4] In his last will and testament Pascin left his estate equally to his mistress, Lucy Krohg, and to his wife, Hermine David.
On the day of Pascin's funeral, June 7, 1930, all the galleries in Paris closed. Thousands of acquaintances from the artistic community along with dozens of waiters and bartenders from the restaurants and saloons he had frequented, all dressed in black, walked behind his coffin the three miles from his studio at 36 boulevard de Clichy to the Cimetière de Saint-Ouen. A year later, Pascin, who was buried under his real name of Pincas was moved to the more prestigious Cimetière de Montparnasse.

It was just before 5 a.m. Sunday when Carl Realista, 60, was found critically injured in Kalihi. Police believe there are some who are remaining silent about it. They are hoping someone will help them crack this attempted murder case.
"He's a real mellow guy. He no bother nobody. Keeps to himself. He doesn't deserve this at all," said Freddie Realista, Carl's brother.
Freddie can't understand why somebody would want to beat up his younger brother. But, it happened -- savagely -- at a bus stop near the intersection of Kalihi Street and Dillingham Boulevard.
"His whole face this side was all bust up. His lips was real fat. Really, really fat," said Freddie.
The bus stop is a busy one. There's another bus stop right across the street. It's less than two blocks away from the home Carl shares with Freddie and his wife.
They said on Sunday morning, Carl left the house at 4:30 a.m., like he has for nearly 25 years headed to his landscaping job in Liliha.
"Every day, he catches the bus. He doesn't drive. He don't drink. He don't smoke. Nothing," said Freddie.
Honolulu police believes there were a lot of eyes on that area Sunday morning.
"Through an investigation and an anonymous witness that called, we believe there were numerous people at the bus stop that morning," said Sgt. Kim Buffett from CrimeStoppers. "In fact, as he was found, a bus had pulled up. People loaded on the bus so we know people were there."
The Realista family is asking anyone with any information on the attack to call police.
"So this kind guys, they should be put away," said Freddie.
Family members say Carl underwent brain surgery and is in a medically-induced coma at this time.
If you recognize Carl Realista and know anything about what happened to him, call CrimeStoppers at 955-8300.

A National League Team in the American League East
Amidst all of the stress that I'm dealing with right now, I figure writing about baseball is the best way to relieve it. Most of you who read my blog seem to be a bit older than me, so let me ask you something: Was May of your junior year the worst time of your life? Or is that just me?
9 Comments
Congrats on the TV show and yes – junior year shall pass….good luck.
The Red Sox are a team in turmoil this season. I was at the Red Sox game last night and watching Beckett unravel was alarming. The man had NO control at times – it was painful. The number of times that the team has imploded quickly is troubling. The inconsistency of the team is not good and it is hard to explain. I worry about the direction they are going – something needs to be done to right the ship quickly or it will indeed be a long season.
Hope I can find a rerun of that show. Good for you getting into the action! And yes, we have not lived until we've seen Lincecum pitch…lol I saw his debut in Philly and have seen him 3 times since…he is amazing.
Elizabeth, congrats on being class president next year! I have to say that I don't remember much from my junior year – I hesitate to say exactly how long ago it was!🙂 I imagine at the time everything seemed earth-shattering, so I guess it just goes to show that in the long run it wasn't really that important. I'm sure everything will work out in the end. Oh, and congrats on the KidPitch show too, that sounds pretty cool!
Rants, Raves, and Random Thoughts
Junior year sounds tough, and I thought my freshman year is hard! But I know you can handle junior year. Congrats on being the president of your class! Like Jenn, hopefully I can see a rerun of KidPitch that you came out on. You are very impressive and I admire everything you do for your future in the baseball industry. It already looks bright and I know you are going to be very sucessful, especially since you are "working" already🙂 P.S. I like Tim Lincecum, even though he is in the same division with my Padres. I didn't have a chance to see him pitch yet but I would love to someday. It just has to be not aginst us🙂
Wow, a TV star. Congrats on being president next year, too. That will be a great way to close out your high school career.
Yeah, May of your Junior year is tough. Lots of things going on, but at least I had varsity baseball to keep me occupied. Once you get to college life is good. It will be the time of your life.
Thanks for the Minor League updates. Next year I'd like to make it out to Portland and Pawtucket for my trip. That would be a memorable time.
'Minoring In Baseball'
Congratulations Elizabeth on being president of your class and on the Kidspitch! too bad I read this late. Hopefully there will be a repeat. I'd love to watch it!
Just don't forget about us little people. You have your head on straight! If you didn't feel stressed right now you'd be on your way to being committed. You are doing just fine. Keep your eye on the prize. We'll still be here.
I actually happened to watch kid pitch today and saw your clip! This is the first time I've stumbled upon your blog and when I read about Kid Pitch I knew I'd seen you on there. You did a great job, sounded very professional and knowledgeable. I'm glad you got to see Lincecum pitch, it truly is a treat for baseball fans to see the greats in person. I used to watch him pitch in AAA Fresno (I live in Fresno) and was just as dominant. And you're right, his pitching motion hasn't changed a bit. Hopefully my Giants can hang on to him for a long time. Great blog!
Congrats, Elizabeth, on KidsPitch, and on being Class President! Your work is starting to pay off, so even if May has been worse than usual, stick with it–looks like it is paying off!!
I remember Felix Doubront from when he played for Greenville. I saw him play against our "home" team here in Asheville (Rockies farm club). Cool that you are getting to meet more of the players!
Keep up the good work! GO SOX!

Portable Global JNDI names
By Mahesh Kannan on Dec 11, 2009
The introduction of dependency injection in JavaEE5 did reduce the need for doing a JNDI lookup. However, there are times when the users / clients had to rely on the good old JNDI lookup to acquire EJB references. Typical examples of such clients performing lookup of EJBs include (a) a JavaEE component from a different application and (b) a Java SE client.
The problem was such clients had to use "global" jndi name to lookup the target bean. All along the ejb specifications had been silent about portability of such global jndi names. This allowed each vendor to assign a global jndi names to EJBs in a vendor specific way. This meant that the client code that performed a lookup using global JNDI names were inherently non portable across appserver vendor implementations.
For example, the following code (part of a non JavaEE client) assumes that FooBean has been mapped to the global jndi name: "_app1_mod1_FooBean"
public static void main(String[] args)
InitialContext ic =
new InitialContext();
//Use fooBean
This code might break if the target bean was deployed to a different JavaEE server.
Portable Global JNDI name in EJB 3.1EJB 3.1 solves the above problem by mandating that every container must assign (at least one) well defined global JNDI names to EJBs.
The general syntax of a (portable) global JNDI name of an EJB is of the form:
In addition to the above name, if the EJB exposes just a single client view (that is it implements just one interface or the no interface view), the container is also mandated to map the bean to
- <aplication-name> defaults to the bundle name (.ear file name) without the bundle extension. This can be overridden in application.xml. Also, <application-name> is applicable only if the bean is packaged inside a .ear file.
- <module-name> defaults to bundle name (.war or .jar) without the bundle extension. Again, this can be overridden in ejb-jar.xml.
- <bean-name> defaults to the unqualified class name of the bean. However, if @Stateful or @Stateless or @Singleton uses the name attribute, then the value specified there will be used as the bean name.
Example 1:
that the following classes and interfaces are packaged inside hello.jar
deployed as a stand alone module
public interface Hello {
public String sayHello();
package com.acme;
public interface GoodBye {
public String sayBye();
package com.acme;
public class MyEJB
implements Hello, GoodBye {
package com.acme;
public class HelloBean {
package com.acme;
public class ShoppingCart
package com.acme;
public class Util { //Not a EJB or Servlet
following portable jndi names are then made available by the
container to the clients:
- Since MyEJB implements more than one interface, the global jndi names must include the implemented interface
- For HelloBean, the value specified in the name() attribute is used as <bean-name>
- Since HelloBean bean exposes a no interface view, the qualified bean class name is used as <fully-qualified-bean-intf-name>
- Since ShoppingCart bean exposes a no interface view, the qualified bean class name is used as <fully-qualified-bean-intf-name>
- Since, the application is
deployed as a standalone module, <app-name>
is not used in the global jndi name.
Client code:
ic = new InitialContext();
Hello = (Hello) ic.lookup("java:global/hello/MyEJB!com.acme.Hello");
GoodBye = (GoodBye) ic.lookup("java:global/hello/MyEJB!com.acme.GoodBye");
ShoppingCart = (ShoppingCart) ic.lookup("java:global/hello/ShoppingCart");
You can also use the portable jndi names in injection too
More name spaces
addition to the java:global namespace, the container is also required
to make the bean(s) available under two other name spaces:
java:app and java:module
Why do we need these two? In the case of java:global, the name contains a hard coded <app-name> and (or) <module-name>. Assuming, that <app-name> and <module-name> are not specified in .xml, re-packaging the bean and client into a different module breaks the client. For example, if FooBean was originally packaged inside foo.jar, the client that looked up using ic.lookup("java:global/foo/FooBean") will break if FooBean is re-packaged inside module2.jar
Since, most of the time the beans and the clients are colocated in the same application or even within the same module, EJB 3.1 allows accessing these colocated beans in a easier way. The spec defines two more name spaces called java:app and java:module.
java:module allows a component executing within a Java EE application to access a namespace
rooted below the <module-name> portion of the namespace corresponding to its module.
You can think of java:module as the jndi sub-context that is rooted under the "current module" in which the client is located. java:module differs from java:global in the sense that the client can access only those beans that are packaged inside the same module as the client. If a component in module1 has to lookup a component in module2, then it has to use java:global (or java:app).
Similarly, can think of java:app as the jndi sub-context that is rooted under the "current app" in which the client is located.
The java:app and java:module names are of the form:
In our example, the Util class can access other components as follows:
Running the sample application
- Save and unzip portable-jndi-app.zip
- cd portable-jndi-name
- mvn install will build the application. The .war file will be under target directory
- <v3-install-dir>/bin/asadmin deploy --force=true target/portable-jndi-app.war
- Open a browser and access localhost:8080/webejb/Example1Servlet
Also, I have used mvn as the build / packing tool.

Advanced Micro Devices and Virage Logic Corp., a semiconductor IP licence company, have formed a new relationship that grants Virage Logic the rights to license, modify and sell standards-based advanced interface IP that AMD designs for use in its extensive graphics processor product line. As a result, Virage receives physical interface circuit design that works, whereas AMD gets additional revenue stream.
The agreement enables Virage Logic to provide AMD's silicon-proven technology for PCIe, HDMI and MIPI (mobile industry processor interface) interfaces at advanced process nodes to companies seeking to leverage existing intellectual property (IP) in order to help speed product development. It is interesting to note that earlier AMD/ATI used to license interface technologies from Virage, hence, the reasons behind the agreement may not only include necessity of creation of new revenue streams.
"Along the way, AMD has worked closely with Virage Logic as a trusted provider of highly differentiated physical IP. Today, we're expanding our relationship to help Virage Logic bring AMD's internally designed, production-proven IP to its customers around the world," said Rick Bergman, senior vice president and general manager of ATI, graphics products group of AMD.
While it may sound strange that an IP licensing company licensees technologies from others, it seems to be a logical decision: creation of advanced IP for advanced process technologies is time-consuming and costly accomplishment. For AMD, it is crucial to develop appropriate interfaces for its graphics processors that are made using the leading-edge technologies. A natural way to capitalize on such expertise and product portfolio is to sell its own products, but an alternative way is to license that IP to others, perhaps, even to its rivals via Virage Logic.
Virage Logic said that it was already engaging with early adopters for deployment of this new high speed interface IP product offering and will announce general product availability in the first half of 2009.
"Through this relationship, we will help address the shortage of high quality, silicon proven advanced interface IP available at leading process nodes. Virage Logic's agreement with AMD is yet another example of how in addition to our organically developed products; we continue to innovate a variety of inorganic growth strategies to maximize ROI and address the transformation that is taking place in the global semiconductor industry." said Dr. Alex Shubat, president and chief executive officer of Virage Logic.

Verbatim conversation:
"Can you play the bongos?" I asked my daughter's friend, Skye. He grunted in reply.
"I'm sorry, what was that? I just wanted to know if you can play the bongos." He shrugged.
"Is that a yes or no?" I asked. He smirked, shrugged and then grunted.
Desperate to get around the words that weren't happening, I placed a set of bongos in his hands and he instantly performed one of the most impressive solos I'd ever heard. When he stopped, he grumbled, "I really can't play."
"I'll take that as a yes," I said, adding, "So let's go." But no one moved except me.
"Where?" Skye asked.
"To the Yarnslingers show," I replied. (Yarnslingers is a local storytelling group of which I am the director and host). "I need someone to play the bongos while I sling yarn around the room. Get it? Yarnslingers!"
Skye murmured something that ended in the word "plans."
"Plans? What kind of plans?" I asked.
Skye smirked, shrugged and then grunted.
"Look," I implored, "I only need you to play for sixty seconds and when I'm done slinging the yarn, you can leave."
Skye said something that began with a "w."
"I'm sorry. Did you say weird?" I ventured but Skye fell silent. Turning slightly gray, I turned to my daughter, Lucy, for help, "What's he saying?"
She looked at me and giggled.
"OK, we really got to get moving now," I explained, "So just tell me, Lucy, what's he saying?"
She giggled again.
"Please save the laughter for when I'm on stage," I pleaded, adding, "I can't throw yarn around the room without a bongo player. That would be crazy! So are you in or out?" There was a long pause and then Lucy chimed, "He's saying 'word'!"
"Word?" I questioned, "I don't get it because the word I'm looking for is simply, yes!"
"Mom, he just wants to know word," Lucy stammered.
"Oh. What does he want to know about the word, word? I'm a writer. I could probably write a book on the word 'word,' but I don't have the time right now. So what's he trying to say?"
"Ugh, mom! she spurted, "Like do you really mean it?"
"Mean what?" I asked. The two of them exchanged glances. Skye smirked, shrugged and grunted and then suddenly agreed to play the bongos but Lucy took them right out of his hands declaring, "You really don't want to do this."
"On yes he does!" I said reaching for the bongos. However, Lucy had already lifted them high above my head.
"Lucy," I said patiently, "Skye said 'word.'"
"Yeah, I know," she giggled as she persisted in holding the bongos just out of my reach.
"Well, he said he'd play the bongos for sixty seconds, right? Isn't that what word means?"
"No, Mom," She explained, "'Word' means do you really mean it?"
"Mean what?" I asked.
"Mean it's only for sixty seconds?" she clarified.
"Oh, so 'word' is another word for promise? As in do I promise that it will only take sixty seconds?"
By then, I was pretty frustrated, but it was hard to tell exactly what I was most upset about: a) That "word" alone without "of honor" as in "word of honor" might make it into the Thesaurus as a synonym for promise; b) I was way behind on my teenaged lexicon; c) Lucy was much taller than me; or, d) All of the above. I was just about to give up when Lucy gleefully announced, "I'll play the bongos for you!"
I looked her straight in the eye and said, "Oh really? Word?"
"Oh God, Mom!" she retorted.
For a long moment, Lucy and I fiercely gazed at each other while Skye studied his shoes. The air was dead. Then Lucy launched into a passionate bongo performance. I wanted to say yes, but what came out of my mouth instead was: a) Tonight there will be no literal yarn slinging; b) Or bongo playing; c) Thank you very much and d) Be home by eleven o'clock. I gently pried the bongos from Lucy's grasp and, happily, we all went our separate ways. Much later on I would discover that I was practically the only person on earth who was unaware of the meaning of "word."

Her Stories is a both a retrospective look at the South Asian Women's Creative Collective, and an overview of some of the most compelling contemporary art being made today from the perspective of South Asian women's identity. These 43 key artists explore their own cultural identities, and yet this intimate exhibition also examines how cultural expectations, history, and myths affect how we see ourselves in the world today.
This exhibition presents works by established and emerging artists from across the South Asian Diaspora, including the United States, South Africa, Canada, and the United Kingdom, all incorporated into a singular room installation that includes archival photographs, publications, and ephemera representing over a hundred South Asian women artists from the history of the groundbreaking nonprofit art organization. The artwork selected for this exhibition also prioritizes decorative and identity-based concepts as a way to examine the trajectory of feminist art, from Judy Chicago and Miriam Schapiro's collaborative Womanhouse (1972) to the recent seminal exhibition about the invisible "other" at the Tate Britain museum in 2011 (Thin Black Line(s): Moments and Connections), and locate its relevance in contemporary media and culture.
Her Stories includes recurring themes such as self-portraiture, with women imagining themselves as goddesses, dead queens, cats, fathers, and cyborgs. Employing embroidery, digital manipulation, automated techniques, and other processes, artists Chitra Ganesh, Jaishri Abichandani, Nazneen Ayyub Wood, Aisha Abid Hussain, Pooneh Maghazehe, Jayna Mistry, Mona Kamal, and Swati Khurana present emotive images of varying historic registers. Annu Matthew, Anjali Bhargava, Sabelo Narasimhan, and Mariam Ghani offer photographs of bodies that suggest racial associations.
Also on display are Yamini Nayar's images that incorporate miniature model sets photographed by large-scale cameras; her point of departure from personal signifiers to formal concerns is apparent in the selected work. The idea of the miniature is echoed throughout the exhibition via the small scale of most of the works presented; the installation is in direct reference to South Asian art historic traditions. The transformation of traditionally segregated female spaces into self-directed feminist ones is evidenced in the works of Roya Farassat, Samira Abbassy, Sa'dia Rehman, and Nida Abidi. These intense images are countered by the more meditative pieces by Nandini Chirimar, Samanta Batra Mehta, Tara Sabharwal, and Kaveri Raina.
Sculptures and installations by Vandana Jain, Indrani Ashe, Hayat Gul, Fariba Alam, Marcy Chevali, Monica Jahan Bose, and Pallavi Sharma occupy the walls, ceiling, and corners, while Ruby Chishti's large sculpture of a cow with an oversized tap for a head commands the floor, leaving each surface of the room adorned with artworks and a library installation of books by female South Asian authors.
A full-color catalogue accompanies this exhibition, and there will be a selection of films, video and animation works on display inside the installation.
Her Stories is curated by Jaishri Abichandani and assistant curator Josheen Oberoi.
Exhibiting Artists: Samira Abbassy, Jaishri Abichandani, Nida Abidi, Fariba Alam, Indrani Ashe, Shelly Bahl, Anjali Bhargava, Monica Jahan Bose, Marcy Chevali, Nandini Chirimar, Ruby Chishti, Poulomi Desai, Mariam Ghani, Roya Farassat, Chitra Ganesh, Hayat Gul, Aisha Abid Hussain, Vandana Jain, Mona Kamal, Jesal Kapadia, Asma Kazmi, Tara Kelton, Amber Khokhar, Sarita Khurana, Swati Khurana, Pooneh Maghazehe, Annu Mathew, Samanta Batra Mehta, Jayna Mistry, Sabelo Narasimhan, Yamini Nayar, Bhanu Palam, Shruti Parekh, Amruta Patil, Kaveri Raina, Sa'dia Rehman, Tara Sabharwal, Sadia Salim, Negin Sharifzadeh (Moss), Pallavi Sharma, Meenakshi Thirukode, Anahita Vossoughi, Nazneen Ayyub Wood.
The South Asian Women's Creative Collective (SAWCC) is a nonprofit arts organization dedicated to the advancement, visibility, and development of emerging and established South Asian women artists and creative professionals by providing a physical and virtual space to profile their creative and intellectual work across disciplines. SAWCC has served South Asian women since 1997 and has earned a reputation for showcasing cutting-edge work that deals intelligently with issues of gender and cultural representation.

practice my brother, running plays is key
rolling with the boys on 2K11, just got it at midnight and have been playing it all night. It's not easy. Any thoughts, any tips, and advice on how to handle them online or something you figured out that works with them let me know, I'm going hard on it.
practice my brother, running plays is key
practice running the plays, use pick and rolls, spread the floor, draw doubles with amare, the things theydo in real life should work in 2k11 so experiment. is mozgov in the game yet?
Buying it tonight! Gamertag is Destopian. Hit me up! (I have not played in like 5 years so I will be wack but whatever)
I just got it for the 360 My gamertag is Gunz Ah AirUout hit me up ppl lets do a season mode. who ever is down I will make a season league tonight and post it on KO.com if your interested just join and send me a message....
Yo Im over in Section 420 Whats up Ppl......
Lets Go Knicks !
2k11 definitely is harder than its been in the pass. Gonna be damn near impossible for no talent scrubs to try and bs their way to a win.
Wtf is up with the ratings???
-Nate Robinson is better then anyone on the Knicks except Amare
-Vince Carter >> Ray Allen?
-Tim Duncan = 90, Kevin Garnot = 80
-94 Knicks, Oakley is like a 80 defensively
-Kobe and Lebron are both 97? Kobe >>> Lebostson
Just a few things that didnt make sense to me
Ya MOZ is in the game now..... Its been a week and I'm a lot better,,, played about 15 games online so far with the Knicks, Im winning about half. Anybody that wants to play on 360 my gamertag is xxirvin88xx
im playing on ps3. anyone wanna play lemme know send my your psn id
We're ridiculous in 2K11.
Amare and AR are unstoppable. Gallo just drops in 3's after teams start focusing on those two. Felton is solid, I do better with TD though. Will & Kelena are good, Will bangs on people and Kelena knocks down open J's.
Though sadly 2K11 is realistic enough that our D and rebouding are horrible.
I got the game I play on Pro and the casual setting. I find the games are always close and I win or lose no more by 2-6 points a game. Simulation is way to hard and unbalanced. I'm 8-3 with our boys in Association. I don't play online, sports games always lag online. Also the Jordan Challenges are impossible.

Rugby League World Magazine - Feedback
Posted 27 February 2013 - 12:30 PM
In shops Friday 1st March or get it online NOW for your iPad, Android device, PC or Mac at http://www.pocketmag...by League World
Later this year, England will attempt to pull off what many cynics regard as an impossible task and win the Rugby League World Cup. The scale of the challenge in front of them could not be more daunting. However, Australia were equally hot favourites in 2008 but that didn't stop New Zealand winning the tournament. Our cover star Lance Hohaia scored two tries for the Kiwis in that game and he talks to Jamie Jones-Buchanan about how to win the World Cup as well as offering his views on the banning of the shoulder charge and the unfolding sporting drug scandal in Australia.
Sonny Bill Williams is back in Rugby League, but not for long. Steve Kilgallon catches up with the controversial but multi-talented superstar for us and Steve Mascord kicks off a new series of interviews with players who are plying their trade in some of the less well known corners of the globe.
On the home front, the dual registration argument has dominated the opening stages of the Kingstone Press Championship and we get to hear both sides of this contentious story from Hunslet Hawks and Sheffield Eagles. We also have interviews with Jason Golden at York City Knights and Workington Town star Ewan Dowes.
Former second row sensation Paul Medley who is now nurturing the next generation as Bradford's head of youth development talks to us about his life and career.
Secret Speccie returns with a visit to Championship One newcomers Hemel Stags. We also take a look at the continuing growth of Rugby League in Hertfordshire as well as evaluating the impact of recent Sport England funding cuts on development work in London and the South East, plus the launch of the new Conference League South and an interview with Gordie Long, head coach of Sharlston Rovers.
On the international scene, Dave Hadfield looks forward to a Festival of World Cups and we chat to England Women's captain Emma Slowe. We pay a visit to Eastern Europe to find out how Rugby League is growing in Ukraine plus coverage of the Cabramatta Nines which saw nations as diverse as Japan, Niue, Portugal, Greece, Canada, American Samoa and the Philippines in Rugby League action. We also have our regular dispatches from Australia, New Zealand, France and Wales.
Of course, as always, there's much more inside too. We hope you enjoy this month's mix. Keep in touch!

Not finished the whole ish yet - but the end to the Paul Medley interview was a bit all over the shop. I guess the inference was he has genuinely been married a few times, but I couldn't work out if it was a joke or there were people at the club who had helped him out who he called his wife. Anyway, it didn't fit in with the rest of the article - which otherwise was one of the better "behind the scenes" bits for a while. More of the same would be great.

I enjoy the magazine but would love Mike Rylance to be given much more space for his French pieces. His pieces are "newsy" - which is good - but I would like him to explore the history and culture of the game in greater depth. I would love to see interviews with/profiles of some of the great (or even lesser known) names, I want to hear their stories, what the game means to them, how they see its future, learn more about the legendary tours and World Cups and Test matches and so on... a little bit more poetry to go alongside the prose.
I'm glad that you now have a dedicated NZ page, but again would like to have alongside the latest news something that gives a fuller flavour of the game's character and personality. How about a piece on the national side of the early 70s which proved too good for both the Australians and GB? Against the odds, NZ has produced some of the most wonderful individual talent in the game's history but, rather like we have with our national press, their contributions have remained largely unacknowledged - let alone celebrated.
Steve Mascord too is a journalist I respect and follow - he made a very good impression on Sky's Back Chat a few weeks ago - but I suspect he's spreading himself a little too thinly. His articles appear to be made up of short, glancing sketches which lack a bit of sustenance. I'd like him and Dave Hadfield to be given a bit more freedom fully to express themselves, to write...
Keep up the good work, John!

Carps: The DR 'debate' was a bit disappointing. I guess it's been done in much greater depth on here, and I hope there's more to come.
The piece on why the Championship is important for RLWC was a bit confusing. It was only about the coaches? And the players? Venues?
Phil Caplan has gone right off. For the second successive issue he basically says nothing at all. Drugs is a difficult issue, but beyond some very obvious comments he adds nothing.
