January/February 2002
Dreyfus Records
No sooner has the guitar stated the opening of "Summertime" than Michel Petrucciani leaps in with a piano solo that is scintillating in its speed, precision and surging exuberance. That's symptomatic of what happens throughout this hugely enjoyable disc. Recorded live in Lyon, France, in Nov. 1992, the CD documents one concert from an international tour that featured Michel in duo with the man he introduces as "mon pere et mon professeur, Tony Petrucciani."
The two certainly sound good together, at ease and well attuned. Michel is, of course, the star; his mercurial, highly embroidered lyricism is infused with the sheer joy of playing. Tony makes an admirable foil, his modest, concise style providing a welcome respite at times from his son's fireworks. Each man gets a brief solo feature ("Nuages," "Nardis"); otherwise it's conversation all the way, an engaging mix of the intimate and the dazzling. The program is nearly all standards: freewheeling versions of "Summertime" and "All the Things You Are," an elaborate "My Funny Valentine," a gently lilting "Someday My Prince Will Come." Perhaps less expected is the duo's exhilarating dash through "Billie's Bounce." "Michel's Blues," penned by Tony, and the encore of Ellington's "Satin Doll" bring a more clipped, even funky approach. But mostly this set is a high-spirited display of Michel's particular kind of rococo brilliance-a lot of notes, a lot of fun.

Issue Panel purpose
(issue to be presented)
ISSUE: Issues in developing pharmacoeconomic guidelines in Asia.
Issue Panel overview
(background information should be included)
OVERVIEW: Several Asian countries have attempted to develop guidelines for pharmacoeconomic (PE) studies. However, this effort has progressed at different rates in different jurisdictions. For example, in Korea the endorsement of a set of guidelines was quite rapid, whereas in China and Japan, the process has been much slower. In this session panellists from three countries at different stages of guidelines development will discuss the progress with PE guidelines development in their country, the obstacles that have been encountered and the measures that would be necessary to facilitate the development of nationally-recognised guidelines. The objective will be to identify the key issues that will need to be addressed in other Asian countries if PE guidelines are to be successfully developed.

CINCINNATI — Summer is in a dry sizzle and the election is 112 days away, but in Ohio there are no dog days in presidential politics.
President Barack Obama was back yesterday. Vice President Joe Biden is due back on Thursday. Presumptive Republican nominee Mitt Romney will be back on Wednesday.
And, if there is truth to the rampant speculation that ran through political circles yesterday, Romney's potential running mate, Sen. Rob Portman of Cincinnati, can be found in Ohio most days.
Obama's ninth visit this year, and his fourth since he launched his re-election campaign May 5 at Ohio State University, touched off another frenzied week of campaigning in Ohio.
The president joshed with an audience of 1,200 in an hourlong town-hall meeting at the historic Cincinnati Music Hall, reluctant to croon on the advice of first lady Michelle, but then leading the crowd in singing Happy Birthday to several celebrants.
"I'm going to eat what he eats," Obama said, referring to a gentleman who said he is 105.
But in a campaign that hit an early stride for rancor, Obama's light-hearted banter soon gave way to a stinging rebuke of Romney for supposedly sending jobs overseas, as the president pressed a line of attack that has put the presidential candidate on the defensive.
Obama sought to poke holes in Romney's narrative that his success as a businessman will lead to domestic job growth, citing a new study estimating that Romney's support for eliminating taxes on American companies' foreign incomes would create 800,000 jobs overseas, including 73,000 jobs in China.
"This shouldn't be a surprise, because Gov. Romney's experience has been in investing in what were called 'pioneers' of the business of outsourcing," Obama said. "Now he wants to give more tax breaks to companies that are shipping jobs overseas. ... I want to give tax breaks to companies that are investing right here in Ohio."
The Romney campaign quickly tried to discredit the study cited by Obama, noting that it was done by Kimberly Clausing, a professor at Reed College in Oregon and a financial contributor to Obama's campaign.
"It's another example of this president's dishonesty, his unwillingness to talk about his record, and it reminds Ohio voters how much he's changed his 2008 campaign when he ran on hope and inspiration," said Ryan Williams, Romney's national campaign spokesman, who attended the Cincinnati event.
In his remarks, Obama continued to draw contrasts between his economic proposals and Romney's, saying he had steered the country through a recession that he inherited. He said Romney wants to give $5 trillion in tax cuts, mostly to wealthy Americans. Obama said his plan would raise taxes on Americans making more than $250,000, while lowering them for other taxpayers.
As Obama's campaign claimed the administration's bailout of General Motors and Chrysler had saved nearly 155,000 Ohio jobs, the president told the Cincinnati audience, "Gov. Romney said, 'Let Detroit go bankrupt.' I said, 'No, 1 out of 8 jobs in Ohio depends on the auto industry.' "
In a conference call with reporters, Ed Gillespie, a Romney campaign senior adviser, noted that the national unemployment rate has topped 8 percent for 41 straight months, saying, "If you're a middle-class worker, you're not doing fine."
Gillespie said the Obama campaign is trying "to distract voters' attention from the failing economy" by pursuing "the 'shiny objects strategy,' and that is to talk about anything but the big issues."
The Obama campaign has sought to fuel the flames of the Bain Capital controversy and Romney's refusal to release his tax returns before 2011. Obama yesterday continued to charge that Romney, as head of Bain, invested in companies that shipped jobs to China, India and elsewhere overseas.
Caleb A. Faux, executive director of the Hamilton County Democratic Party, said the Bain attacks are resonating with voters and have thrown the Romney campaign off stride.
"He's had a rough week," Faux said of Romney. "The issue of his tax returns is not going to go away. When you even have some Republicans come out and say he needs to release his returns, that tells you the issue has staying power."
Romney has demanded that Obama apologize for what he said is a misrepresentation of his time at Bain.
"Issues that the Obama campaign may try to bring up to divert from the president's failed policies are simply distractions, and we think voters see through this," Williams said. "The president's campaign is talking about everything but the economy because it's a bad issue for them."
Romney will spend his 13th day of campaigning in Ohio by holding private fundraisers Wednesday in Toledo and Canton, with a town-hall meeting in Bowling Green in between. On Thursday, Vice President Joe Biden is scheduled to return to Ohio, although the venue has not been announced.

Amended Smoking Ban Updateby Xavier Walton, email@example.com
The amended smoking ban ordinance was the highlight of the April 16th city council meeting. Coming into the evening there was rumor the ordinance would be tabled, pushing back the process until late May.
However, that's all it was, in fact the amended smoking ban issue was debated for more than two hours. People for and against the amended smoking ban took the podium three minutes at a time and pleaded their cases to the council.
At the end of the night council voted 5-4 in favor of passing the amended smoking ban ordinance to it's second public hearing.

Can you help me find a cheap, happy place to escape to for August?
I currently live in Brooklyn, but I'm headed to Vancouver for grad school in the fall. I have a few part-time freelance writing gigs that I can take with me, so I thought I could leave my higher-paying job in NYC, satisfy my wanderlust, and get out of the city for August. I could go anywhere, with relatively cheap flights/rent and wifi-access. But where should I go? [more inside]

Help me feed my 20-something wanderlust. Difficulty level: Wheelchair
I'm like every other post-college twentysomething in lots of ways: I make too little money, watch too much Netflix and indulge in an existential crisis oh, about once an hour. Also, like many in my cohort, I love the idea of packing up a ratty old duffel bag and heading off to some far corner of the world to taste, see and do all I can, while maybe giving myself either a leg to stand on once I return to the job market here or the warm-n-fuzzies that come from volunteering and/or service learning. All pretty standard fare. Here comes the doozy of snowflake: I'm in a wheelchair and have certain difficulties with speech fluency, owing to my CP and spastic diplegia diagnosis. Try as I might, I can't get myself to give up on the dream of spending a year or more abroad, even with all this in my way. Help me get there, oh beautiful hivemind? [more inside]
Dead ends everywhere I look
That I've posed this question more than once before in various forms doesn't say very many good things, but the circumstances being what they are, I have to hope the answer is yet to be found.

I'm also in a wheelchair, unable to speak fluently in an increasing percentage of life situations, grossly overweight, unmotivated and uninspired.

I really want to get away from my house to finish up some screenplays for a May 1 deadline. So where can a not-so-rich person go for the last two weeks of April that will allow much peace and quiet while being both safe and warm enough to wander around in short sleeves night and day. Suppose a cost of around $1500--the cheaper the better--including return airfare to Toronto. Note that I like seclusion but I also don't drive so it needs to be someplace close to the necessities.

Microsoft's newest mobile OS -- Windows Phone 8 -- will add some key functionality to Microsoft's smartphones, but is it worth waiting for?
The new software offers a few more bells and whistles in terms of functionality for smartphone subscribers. But the bigger deal is that it will offer the necessary hooks for developers and device makers to build more advanced hardware. Finally, this could mean that Microsoft's live tile interface may finally be installed on some heavily spec'ed devices.

Building bridges
September 4, 2013 —
How did it get to be this bad?
Pennsylvania has earned the nationwide distinction for having the largest number of bridges that have been left to fall into disrepair. Twenty-six percent of more than 31,000 bridges are deemed structurally deficient. While the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) hastens to point out that "structurally deficient" (SD) bridges are still safe to travel, the term nevertheless means there is deterioration to one or more of its major components.
In fact, things have gotten bad enough that PennDOT has begun posting new or added weight restrictions on about 1,000 of its bridges statewide. (The posting of county and locally owned bridges will be addressed later, after PennDOT, which has regulatory authority over all bridges, discusses these changes with the bridges' owners. How sparsely populated rural municipalities with small tax bases will afford to repair their bridges without state or federal help is anybody's guess.)
Weight-restricted bridges are more than an inconvenience for drivers; the result is bad news for Pennsylvania's economy. At many posted bridges, these weight limits will result in costly detours for the heaviest vehicles—the trucks and tractor trailers that carry goods to keep our economy going. Cement mixers, fire trucks, buses and other heavy vehicles may face these detours, too.
PennDOT Secretary Barry Schoch, a Governor Corbett appointee, has been warning about this day for some time, and makes no secret where he assigns the blame for this sad state of affairs. When lawmakers failed to agree on how to fund a transportation bill in June, leaving the governor to sign the 2013-2014 state budget without it, PennDOT lost a highway construction season.
"If it's not done this fall [when lawmakers return from the summer recess], it will be years," Schoch said. "And that's just mind-boggling."
Even if the legislature passes a transportation bill in the fall, the earliest the weight restrictions could be removed would be when repairs can be scheduled for funding within two years. If conditions warrant, the restrictions could remain in place until repairs are made.
PennDOT had been hoping to put contracts out for bid to rebuild more than 600 bridges. Now that goal is in question, possibly for years to come. And, according to Schoch, about 12,000 jobs will be lost and an additional 50,000 jobs won't be created.
So, what were lawmakers thinking when they failed to agree on any of three proposed transportation plans—not the House plan, not the Senate plan, and not Governor Corbett's plan?

my gifts
Here are my Mother's Day gifts.
No, not the kids. I mean, yes they are a my most precious gifts as a mother.
What I am talking about is the pictures.
Yesterday I told Mr.Wonderful from now on I would like a nice picture taken of me and my children as my Mother's Day gift.
Nice being Mama is not covered in dirt, snot, or paint and has showered and applied make-up.
Of course I also understand that not everyone will be looking at the camera and smiling at the same time, but we can at least try.
For all the mamas and mamas-to-be I hope you had a wonderful Mother's Day.
