About the Author: Kris Balderston serves as Special Representative for Global Partnerships.
Throughout 2010, Secretary Clinton has championed partnerships with the private sector and civil society as a cornerstone of foreign policy. Our office, the Global Partnership Initiative, has led the way by developing innovative models to bring in non-governmental actors to work with the U.S. government. Two of our flagship partnerships from 2010 particularly stand out:
Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves A public-private initiative to save lives, improve livelihoods, empower women, and combat climate change 3 billion people in over 500 million homes use dirty, inefficient cookstoves and open fires to cook their food. Exposure to smoke from traditional cookstoves and open fires -- the primary means of cooking and heating for nearly three billion people in the developing world -- causes 1.9 million premature deaths annually, with women and young children the most affected. Cookstove smoke contributes to a range of chronic illnesses and the World Health Organization estimates harmful cookstove smoke to be the fourth worst overall health risk factor in developing countries. Reliance on biomass for cooking and heating increases pressures on local natural resources (e.g., forests, habitat) and forces women and children to spend many hours each week collecting wood. Women and girls also face severe personal security risks as they forage for fuel from refugee camps and in conflict zones. Inefficient cookstoves also contribute to climate change through emissions of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane, and aerosols such as black carbon.
To address this range issues, the Global Partnership Initiative, the United Nations Foundation, and other Founding Funders launched the Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves in September 2010 -- a ten-year, $250 million public-private partnership in support of a bold vision of universal adoption of clean and efficient cooking solutions and an interim goal to enable 100 million households to adopt clean and efficient cookstoves and fuels by 2020. The groundbreaking approach taken by the Alliance is that a wide range of partners -- a variety of U.S. government agencies, other governments from around the world, multilateral institutions, businesses, foundations, and others -- have come together to help overcome the market barriers that currently impede the production, deployment, and use of clean cookstoves in the developing world. With recent coverage in the New York Times, the International Herald Tribune, the Economist, PBS, the Martha Stewart Show, the State Department has worked with partners to bring about what the a New York Times editorial called an "ingenious and overdue response to a global problem."
Partners For A New Beginning Broadening and Deepening Engagement Between the U.S. and Muslim Communities
In his historic speech in Cairo, President Obama called for a New Beginning between the U.S. and Muslim communities around the globe in a spirit of mutual understanding and mutual respect. The President was clear that this effort would require more than government action: "The United States cannot do this alone and the United States government cannot do this alone. All these things must be done in partnership." Partners for a New Beginning (PNB), the private sector response to the President's speech, was launched by Secretary Clinton and former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright on April 27 of this year. Going beyond one-off, individual efforts, the Global Partnership Initiative instead developed this partnership to be much broader in scale and scope, through a long-term investment that has already mobilized many of America's most eminent leaders.
On the morning of September 22, PNB inaugurated its full Steering Committee, with former Secretary Albright serving as PNB Chair and Muhtar Kent, Chairman and CEO of the Coca-Cola Company, and Walter Isaacson, President and CEO of the Aspen Institute, joining her as the PNB Vice Chairs.
Other members of the PNB Steering Committee Members are as follows:
• Mr. Tarek Abdel-Meguid, Founding Partner, Parella Weinberg Partners
• Ms. Cathleen Black, President, Hearst Magazines
• Ms. Jean Case, Chief Executive Officer, The Case Foundation
• Mr. John Chambers, Chairman and CEO, Cisco Systems, Inc.
• Mr. Kenneth Cohen, Chairman, ExxonMobil Foundation; Vice President of Public Affairs, Exxon Mobil Corporation
• Dr. Helene Gayle, President and CEO, CARE USA
• Mr. Stephen Heintz, President, Rockefeller Brothers Fund
• Mr. Andrew Liveris, President, Chairman, and CEO, The Dow Chemical Company
• Mr. John Mack, Chairman, Morgan Stanley
• Mr. Paul Otellini, President and CEO, Intel Corporation
• Dr. Eboo Patel, Founder and Executive Director, Interfaith Youth Core
• Dr. Ruth Simmons, President, Brown University
These leaders have committed that over the next five years, they will build partnerships to increase access to financing, business capacity and development services, improve educational opportunities for students and teachers, foster physical and virtual exchange programs, and enhance science and technology solutions that will positively impact up to 500,000 people across the PNB targeted geographical areas of Egypt, Indonesia, Pakistan, Turkey, and West Bank/Gaza. Local Chapters in each of these countries are also being developed to build locally-driven, community-based partnerships based on the leadership of 15-20 private sector and civil society leaders, including local representatives of multi-national companies, as well as local businesses and organizations.
Together, this coalition of U.S. government, private sector, and civil society leaders will foster broader and deeper engagement between the United States and Muslim communities around the world, thus fulfilling the Secretary of State's statement when she launched the partnership that "This is a high priority for both the President and myself. I think that this is one of those occasions in the diplomatic history of our country that we will look back on and say that that made a difference."
In 2011 and beyond, we can expect to see more examples of partnerships like these brokered by the State Department. In particular, the Global Partnership Initiative has targeted work in climate change and clean energy, diaspora community engagement, and impact investing and the scaling of social enterprises. As the first ever Quadrennial Diplomacy and Development Review has made clear, this approach to harnessing networks of public and private actors will increasingly become the way the State Department does business in the decade to come, considering that "Private sector partners can add value to our missions through their resources, their capacity to establish presence in places we cannot, through the technologies, networks, and contacts they can tap, and through their specialized expertise or knowledge. Their reach and influence continues to grow. So too must our efforts to connect with, build upon, and amplify their work to advance our common interests -- including through our Global Partnership Initiative office."

Hi Global Partnership and Alliance Members.
This is a great Initiative! I hope your work on issues that, Help the Envirnment,Improve Health,Help the Envirnment, and better the lives of many people is Successful.
I also, liked what i read on Bill Clintons web site, about the Solar lighting program.
That cuts down on camp fires and candles for lighting. These could cause fires and burn peoples housing down.
Anyway, Great work on the Initiatives.
See Ya Folks & Hillary :)

Topic: Simple Hash question
Hello to all,
I have a hash that is loaded with data from a table in my database,
using find(:all). It's pretty simple it has 3 key/value pairs (state/
city/population) and about 12 "elements".
What is the simplest way to print that information (only the states
and cities actually) out to the screen as an unordered list?
Or is there a better and simpler way than using hashes to achieve this?
Tank you very much!

Faced with competition, British Airways (BA) focused on achieving a competitive advantage through customer insight.
BA has accumulated substantial customer information from its Avios loyalty program and its website, and incorporated this data into its customer data warehouse for analysis.
BA decided to put customer big data to work in its Know Me program. Its goal: to understand customers better than any other airline. The data was collected across tens of millions of touchpoints.
Recognizing most loyal customers and showing appreciation through targeted benefits
The program tracks services that it provides to customers so that BA understands what problems the customers are experiencing and provides the best response
Through analysis of customer data, BA can target 'next best offers' for their customers' consideration
Meet Lynda Peters, a 29 year-old IT Architect, at the fictional insurance company Tranquilife.
The year is 2016, and today she is attending a business conference.
This is her experience of a day in the future of the travel industry.
Seizing the potential of big data is not just about implementing technology. To make effective use of big data, organizations will have to change business and operational processes, decision styles, employee skills and corporate cultures.
The level of change may well be dramatic - but so is the potential benefit.
Big data is often boiled down to a few varieties including social data, machine data and transactional data.
Typical transactional data including invoices, payment orders, storage records and deliveries
This can include data from social media services and functionality such as Facebook Likes, Tweets & YouTube views
This data can consist of information gathered from industrial equipment, real-time data from sensors and web logs that track user behavior online
Source: Business Intelligence Blog
After registering for her conference, all the logistics (city, hotel, beginning and ending times of conference) of the trip were automatically downloaded into Lynda's scheduling application.
They were then transmitted - again automatically - to the travel management system that Tranquilife had chosen.
Want to start getting involved with big data? Ask yourselves the following questions to give yourself an idea of the state of play within your industry at the moment:
Revenue management is one of the most popular areas for the application of Big Data analytics.
Swiss Air combined two organizational processes, making revenue management one integrated process.
This means that Swiss Air can now make fast pricing changes in real-time.
Through big data, Air France-KLM's new revenue management system can estimate the likelihood of no-shows on flights, and thus know how much overbooking to allow.
Without any action on Lynda's part, she received her proposed itineraries with the following components:
A flight on Lynda's preferred airline, with a frequent flyer upgrade already arranged
A hotel reservation for all the nights of the conference
A self-driving rental car reservation at the airport
Big data analytics can be used to assess the drivers of financial performance for the hotel and resort industries.
For example, Hilton Hotels introduced its 'Balanced Scorecard Hall of Fame', as way of measuring performance by focusing on the efforts of staff throughout the organization. Through this, Hilton was able to understand what factors drive organizational performance.
By accruing and analyzing figures from its scorecards over several years, Hilton was able to find significant correlations between customer satisfaction and loyal customer behaviors.
An analysis of data from 42 Hilton Hotels, over five years, showed a 5% increase in customer loyalty in a given year leads to a 1.1% average increase the following year.
You need to consider what is happening with big data in the industry.
Where in the business is there a need for much better data and better decisions? Where is there already data that could be useful either internally or to customers, but is currently being ignored?
Big data uses the information that customers are already generating to provide travel companies with better, more targeted and customized (and ultimately more profitable) services and products
Amadeus has also developed a customer service solution called Featured Results. Faced with a rising "look to book" ratio, the number of queries compared to bookings, Amadeus needed to find a way for travel distributors to make desirable offers to customers. Featured Results presents four possible itineraries in which consumers may be particularly interested.
A major focus of Amadeus' big data efforts involves easing the search process and presenting customers with targeted options.
One such offering is Extreme Search - whereby the customer enters information (overall budget, no. of passengers, length of trip, min temperature of destination) and is given a list of trip proposals.
"Big data analytics is the process of examining large amounts of data of a variety of types to uncover hidden patterns, unknown correlations and other useful information"
Source: Search Business Analytics
Distribution has long been the area of travel in which computers, data and analytics have seen some of the greatest advances. One key trend within the distribution process is customization. This means that offers can be based on loyalty status, past behaviors or customer desires.
Through big data analysis, there are many possible future improvements to customization, such as:
Based on customer behaviors or absence of them: "We are sorry we missed you on your weekly Dallas-Chicago flight"
Based on schedule disruptions: "We are sorry to see that you missed your flight departure. Would you like a seat in first class for the 15:15 flight?"
Based on social media relationships: "Four of your Facebook friends have recently visited Bermuda, so we're offering you 20% off to try it for yourself"
Based on location: "We see you have just arrived in Frankfurt and your final destination is Heidelberg. Did you know there is a Deutsche Bahn train that you can get in 45 minutes?"
Another use of big data in the travel industry involves making internal operations more efficient and effective.
Take the issue of energy consumption in hotels. Two InterContinental Hotels in San Francisco were using Stem (a big data energy management startup).
Stem gathers data from more than 50 different sources (weather, electricity rates, building's energy consumption, etc.) to build a comprehensive building energy profile.
Through incorporating this big data energy management setup, the hotels were able to reduce costs by 10-15%.
The travel management system downloads Lynda's destination address, preferred air-conditioning temperature and favourite satellite music station to her self-driving hired car. She arrives at the conference hotel without any hassle.
Hipmunk is an online travel website. The website searches for and ranks flights, hotel options and accommodation rentals. Its big data activities involve customer-facing offerings.
One such product is their Agony Index, which takes flight duration and number of stops in a journey into account, before giving users' journeys a rating as to how much 'agony' they'll experience with the options they've picked - giving them a chance to change their minds.
Post-conference, Lynda receives an email from the travel management system, informing her that all of her expenses have been submitted to her company for reimbursement.
Since data science skills can be in short supply, organizations that want to use big data need to begin recruiting and working with those who possess those skills now. Make sure your potential new recruits are adept at data mangagement, analytics, and solving and communicating about business problems.
The travel needs of today's customers are intermodal, international and interactive. No single travel provider is likely to meet any customer's needs for a seamless experience. Start now and consider partnering with other firms to provide the big data experience that your customers want.
Perhaps it will be later than 2016 by the time journeys like Lynda's come to pass, perhaps it will be sooner.
Whenever they occur, the capabilities highlighted in Lynda's story are not entirely unrealistic due to the technological advancements we are already witnessing today.
This is just one small scenario illustrating what could be possible.
The information contained in this infographic is based upon the report 'At the Big Data Crossroads: turning towards a smarter travel experience', authored by Professor Thomas Davenport.

Don't Ignore the Cliff, Make It a Better OneOctober 31st, 2012 . by economistmom
(Cartoon by John Darkow and Cagle Cartoons, obtained from theweek.com.)
Last week former Senators Pete Domenici (R-NM) and Sam Nunn (D-GA), in the Washington Post, urged policymakers to "build" a "better" fiscal cliff. As they explain:
Most pundits believe that, rather than go over the cliff, Congress will kick the can down the road during the lame-duck session after Election Day. We suggest that the lame-duck Congress should change the "can" before it is kicked.
Such a strategy has several advantages. First, it could avoid the worst effects of the fiscal cliff without ignoring our fundamental fiscal challenge, the unsustainable mismatch between spending commitments — largely for health-care programs — and current revenue projections. Absent more constructive action, simply postponing when we go over the cliff could hurt business confidence, worry investors and lead to another disruptive debate over raising the debt ceiling.
Second, it is politically achievable. While it is unlikely that a grand bargain to fix the debt could be reached during the lame-duck session, Congress could accomplish replacing the fiscal cliff with broad targets for deficit reduction along the lines of Simpson-Bowles and Domenici-Rivlin, to take effect if no other deal is reached.
Third, this strategy would increase the likelihood of reaching a comprehensive budget deal. If we learned one thing over our many years of service in the Senate, it is that elected officials require political cover on difficult votes.
Enacting such a deal means that Democrats have to be willing to consider reforming — over time — Medicare, a key driver of U.S. deficits. Republicans will have to consider raising revenue through reducing tax expenditures, if not through higher rates. Neither will be an easy vote to cast.
Changing the can before kicking it would allow lawmakers to explain to constituents that, while they don't like everything in the deal, it is far better than going over the fiscal cliff. In this context, a vote to substitute a rational compromise would be a vote against recession, major tax increases, mindless spending cuts and diminished American influence abroad.
Now, we have set deficit-reduction targets before, but those have merely served as the big "kick me" targets on the fiscal cans that are kicked. Why would a particular configuration of tough choices, such as Simpson-Bowles or Domenici-Rivlin be adopted when Congress has had trouble enough achieving less-ambitious plans?
If the goal is something as "grand" or "big" as the recommendations of the fiscal commissions, I think there has to be a credible default option that is procedurally easy to implement and enforce. That's where I think it's time we hold our politicians to the laws they have passed in the past–i.e., literal current law with tax cuts that actually expire and spending cuts that actually take effect. I think of this as the "benign neglect" or "go home" option, because Congress could go (or stay) home and not pass any new tax or spending legislation, and then current law would be forced to literally play out.
The Congressional Budget Office has "scored" this default option time and time again, because it's called the "current law baseline." And they've noted that although the first year of this current law baseline is known as the (dreaded) "fiscal cliff"–because the around $500 billion of deficit reduction between this year and next is too much for our still-fragile, still-demand-constrained economy to take–the latter half of the current law baseline in the later years of the ten-year budget window gets us to an economically sustainable level of deficits and hence a stronger supply-driven economy. So CBO has warned (in their outlook report as well as an earlier one specifically dealing with the fiscal cliff) that the first year of current law needs to be avoided, but current law further down the line is a good thing.
The only way to shed the bad but keep the good is to "substitute the can" as Senator Nunn has characterized it during the "Strengthening of America" events that the Concord Coalition co-sponsored. I've called it "recycling" the fiscal cans. The point is that we can't just throw the current-law baseline away just because we don't like the first part of it. And throwing away scheduled tough choices has become too habitual for our policymakers, because it's just so easy and so seemingly free. (Why have to propose future spending cuts or tax increases, when continued deficit financing is an option that finds bipartisan support?) That's why I think the public must not allow a mere kicking of the fiscal cans once again; they must pressure our policymakers to simultaneously (at the time of the can kicking) adopt a "tough choices or else" commitment (for policies in the ten-year window) to be set within the next six months to a year where the "or else" part is something even tougher but credible and "easy" to implement. And what could be easier than current law?
Current law is not a bad "default option"–at all. At a conference last week at Tulane University, I argued that current tax law (the bulk of what makes current law a huge deviation from "business as usual" current policy) would do pretty well by the three goals the conference dubbed a "fiscal trilemma"–economic growth, deficit reduction, and "progressivity" (the vertical equity of the tax system):
- Marginal tax rates certainly tolerable from supply-side perspective, and tax increases not contrary to short-term stimulus if delayed (and given distribution of expiring cuts);
- Achieves revenue levels consistent with economically-sustainable deficits over next 10-20 years; and
- Increases progressivity of federal tax system (is a pretty good execution of the "Buffett Rule" principle–that millionaires should have average tax burdens exceeding those of middle-income households).
And on a sidenote… I have to confess my huge (and I guess cynical) fear about the currently growing bandwagon of support for "fiscally responsible" policies which I hope does not come true: that many of the CEOs and politicians clamoring for better leadership to "fix" the "fiscal cliff" issue (or even to "Fix the Debt") are motivated mostly by their desires to avoid the tax increases and spending cuts comprising the (one-year) fiscal cliff. "Fiscal responsibility" currently means not allowing our country to go off the cliff, because it could put us back into recession. But once the immediate can has been kicked to avoid the first-year part of the cliff, and once our economy gets back to full employment, will the enthusiasm to (really) "fix" the debt problem continue, when the time has come when there are no longer the economic excuses to avoid tax increases and spending cuts, but only the obvious, glaring economic reasons to start accepting them? I do hope so, but I worry, too.
All the more reason for the public to demand not just that we "fix the debt" right now (which could just mean "kick the can"), but that we "fix the debt" even after the election and even after the economy gets back to needing the policy actions formerly known as "fiscally responsible" deficit reduction.

Telling the story of the settlers
To the editor:
Thank you to a previous writer for bringing up the friendly Indians, who were called "traitors," had their homes and possessions burned and their lives threatened in 1862, and are still called 'traitors' today. That's another piece of the story which needs to be told, just as the experiences of the white refugees and soldiers need to be told. They too were innocent victims of a war whose cause was complex but largely brought on by the conflicts over the U.S. Government Indian Policy. That complexity is also evidence of the diversity of experience for everyone who was alive at the time, whether white, mixed blood or Indian, and how necessary it is to hear all stories and viewpoints – not just the 'Dakota as victim' stories typically told.
Imagine the reaction of this retelling of history to the hundreds of settlers who were killed and captured in surprise attacks by some of the Dakota at the beginning of the War. These early pioneers to Minnesota were only looking to make a better life for their families, and their sacrifice is being forgotten and sometimes purposefully ignored. The story of the settler victims has virtually disappeared.
Perhaps the full story is being innocently overlooked; perhaps there is an interest in downplaying the war's impact on the settlers in an effort at political correctness. Whatever the reason, there is no question that an accurate telling of our collective history is the only way for true learning, healing and reconciliation to occur.
Family and Friends of Dakota Uprising Victims is a group that was formed for the 150th anniversary of the 1862 Dakota Uprising in August, 2012. Their mission is to give voice to those descendants whose families were affected by the uprising and advocate for those who cannot speak for themselves. A website (www.dakotavictims1862.com) was created to publish stories written by descendants of these settler victims. There is also a companion Facebook page.

Norma,I believe that the MM employee I spoke with about the MM dough is Melody (Mel). That may not be her real name since, as you know, there is an MM cartoon character by the name of Melody Mushroom. You might get a kick out of this cartoon featuring some of the MM cartoon characters, including Melody: http://mellowmushroom.com/public/old_site1/toons/sundried.html. If Melody is the one I spoke with and is a Product Innovation Manager, I think she would, or should, know what goes into the MM dough. The number of MM stores mentioned in the Slice article is wrong. There are currently 132 MM units, including those that are in the process of opening. As of 2010, there were 122 units. I read a review article recently where the writer complained about the slow service (40 minutes for a small specialty pizza) and the high prices at one of the recently opened MM stores (as much as $27.95 for some of the 16" specialty pizzas). There are actually quite a few MM 16" specialty pizzas above $25. Peter
If it was Melody the Product Innovation Manager you spoke to, I also think she would, or should, know what goes into the MM dough. Either you could call again, using your favorite falsetto voice like you didnt want to use with Maria, at Reply 2 http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,13687.msg137295.html#msg137295 or if you dont want to use your favorite falsetto voice, I can call this coming week and see if I can speak to Melody and find out any information. If you dont decide to call, what do you want me to ask? Should I just pretend I am a vegan and ask about honey?
Norma,I think it would be better if someone else called Melody, or someone else at MM, on the honey/vegan issue. In cases like this, you sometimes only get one bite at the apple. For me, that was getting resolution on the matters of the use of high-gluten flour (yes), wheat germ (no), Vitamin E enrichment (no), molasses (yes), spring water (yes) and no white refined sugars. Had I known at the time I spoke with Melody that honey and its relatiionship to a vegan diet was an issue, that would have been the time to ask Melody about the honey. If I were to call her again, I think the vegan issue would raise a red flag and make her suspicious, particullarly since she told me that they had vegan pizzas (and gluten-free as well) and I remained silent on that matter. If I use a falsetto voice, she will perhaps know from my telephone number or Caller ID where I am calling from. Then I would have to "invent" a female member of my household. So, whether you or Biz decide to call MM, I would limit the next phone call to possibly two issues. One would be the honey/vegan issue. The second would have to do with the use of organic ingredients. In my research, I read a few times about the flour for the MM dough being organic. MM has never said that it uses organic flour to the best of my knowledge, only reviewers who perhaps don't have a clue about what they are talking about. I also saw occasional references to organic toppings. I don't really care about those. But it would be interesting to know if the MM high-gluten flour is organic. I tend to doubt it because when I spoke with Melody on one of our calls she read off some of the ingredients in their flour, including B vitamins. Most organic flours tend to be just plain wheat flour without the vitamin or iron enrichment, although they can include barley malt. The lead in to the organic flour question might be a comment that you read somewhere on the Internet that MM uses organic flour and that you are always on the lookout for organic products as much as possible as part of a healthy diet. It is not an allergy, vegan/vegetarian or gluten-free issue. Peter
I wonder if the Dry Malt DME-B I had posted about at Reply 223 http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,13820.msg154873.html#msg154873 is diastatic malt or non-diastatic malt? When I asked for the sample of the #732 molasses for this thread, John Johansen asked me how the Dry Malt DME-B worked out. I told him didnt notice any difference in the taste in the crust from using the malt at 2.5%. He told me I could up the malt in the formula I was trying.
Norma,DME is a generic term for Dry Malt Extract. According to the Malt Products website at http://www.maltproducts.com/news.whatismalt.html, the dry malt extract is "the spray-dried form of the liquid non diastatic extracts". So, it is nondiastatic. The "B" form is perhaps one of the versions of DMEs that John thought might work best for your particular application. Peter
Biz,I am glad you were satisfied with your attempt at a MM clone using Diastatic Barley Malt. Did your pie have the sweet taste in the crust rim like a MM pizza? How was your crumb color compared to MM pies? I could imagine the color would have been close with using 5.5% Brer Rabbit Molasses.Congrats! Norma
Thanks Norma! It was sweet I think but in a subtle, complex way. Seemed pretty close to the Franklin MM pie that I had a while back. The color I think was pretty much the same as I have been producing, which was identical essentially to the Farragut crust that I saved and used as a benchmark. I did only increase the molasses a bit, so I don't think it had much of a darkening affect.
Interesting. Biz is using about half the molasses that I and others have used and I used brown sugar. Is it coming down to personal judgement on sweetness?

In my previous comment, just in case anyone misunderstood, I meant no disrespect to agents. What the good agents do is indispensable to writers, many if not most of whom do not know how to conduct their business as a business or how to represent themselves. In fact, it seems to me growingly apparent that publishers, as we know them now, may turn out to be far less essential to writers than agents will continue to be.
Editor, edit thyself. Last sentence: I WASN'T the ONLY one who felt that way.
I can understand how an agent's brainstorming with an editor is a form of "support" but I'm less certain that cajoling, needling, and harrassing are supportive. I'd say that thirty per cent of the conversations I had with agents--good agents, whose taste and energy I admired--consisted of a gentle or sometimes vigorus and occasionally aggressive harrassment about matters that even when I held a position of some authority, I could do little about, in part because the calls were made in protest against or complaints about decisions that I had helped to make. Sometimes I felt strongly that these kinds of agent calls were made in a pro-forma way that had to be endured by both parties. Sometimes I felt that I wasn;t the ionly one who felt that way.
I also really enjoyed this article. My only question is, since the author is in no way privy to the dealings between agent and editor, how can they tell if they actually have a good agent or a slacker? I mean, sure their agent could be returning their phone calls or emails, but that doesn't mean they're going to bat for them with the editors.
I enjoyed the article not realizing how little power editors have. I appreciate that good agents, like Molly, are there to help by building strong relationships with publishers and editors.
And I'm not naive enough to think that there are no ruthless, ambitious people in the world of publishing. It's a business, business means profit and margins and it's not personal.
I just hope when the time comes, I get a good agent like Molly.
There are good points made in this article, but I feel sorry for the agents profiled in this piece, because the author doesn't seem to treat them seriously. To cite them for being tall, having nice voices, or mustaches--come on! This piece was downright silly.
I used to be an editor at Simon & Schuster, and I can attest to Jofie's point that editors--unless they are very senior--are pretty much powerless. This may not be what writers want to hear, but it is what they need to know. Thank you, Jofie, for saying what needs to be said.

In a bid to address the market of enthusiasts with a non-Extreme Edition processor, Intel plans to release Core i7-875K chip with unlocked multiplier, a mainboard maker has revealed. The central processing unit will be the most advanced chip for LGA1156 platform and will not be truly affordable.
Intel Core i7-875K processor will have the same specifications as the model 870: it will operate at 2.93GHz, will feature four cores with Hyper-Threading technology, sport 8MB of L3 cache and will be made using 45nm process technology. The only difference between the two central processing units (CPUs) will be unlocked multiplier on the 875K chip, which will allow overclockers and enthusiasts to easily boost clock-speed of the product without necessity to overclock other parts of their systems.
Recently Intel promised to start selling chips with unlocked multiplier that do not cost $1000 per unit. Historically, neither Intel nor AMD accepted overclocking since this could damage their chips in many cases. However, when both Advanced Micro Devices and Intel started to sell processors designed for extreme performance enthusiasts, they had to admit that such chips are often used at clock-speeds that by far exceed the official ones. As a result, both AMD and Intel have been shipping their chips for overclockers – Extreme Edition, Black Edition, FX-series – with unlocked multiplier for about seven years now. AMD started to offer its Black Edition chips with unlocked multiplier and moderate price back in 2007 and it Intel plans to follow its smaller rival this year.
Nevertheless, the Core i7-875K processor will hardly be affordable. The less advanced model 870 costs $562 and the unit with unlocked multiplier will naturally cost a little more.

Cause of Iron Mountain fire probed
By NIKKI YOUNK
Staff Writer
IRON MOUNTAIN – Officials are still trying to determine the cause of a fire that destroyed a historic, 128-year-old building in Iron Mountain.
The blaze occurred early Tuesday morning at Francie's Traditional Designs, an interior design business located at the intersection of Carpenter Avenue and West Brown Street.
Firefighters from the Iron Mountain Fire Department said that they will continue investigating the incident today.
In the meantime, the two-block section of Carpenter Avenue between West Fleshiem Street and West Ludington Street will remain closed to traffic. There is still a concern that the remaining structure could collapse.
Francie's Traditional Designs had occupied the space since about 2000, but the building's history goes back much further in time.
Menominee Range Historical Foundation Historian William Cummings said that the First Presbyterian Church congregation started construction on the building in 1885 at a cost of about $3,000.
Construction was completed in early 1886, and the first services were held in the church on Sunday, Feb. 7, 1886.
Cummings said that the church building saw various improvements in 1930, 1940, 1941, and 1942. Upgrades included a new chancel, north entrance, furnace room, furnace system, basement floor, partitions, lavatories, and kitchen cupboards.
In May 1955, the congregation voted to build a new church in Kingsford. Their new church building, located on Hamilton Avenue, was dedicated on Oct. 12, 1958, said Cummings.
According to information provided by Iron Mountain Main Street Manager Jonathan Ringel, Trico Opportunities Inc. used the old church building as part of a welfare workshop for a time in the 1970s.
In 1983, the Pine Mountain Baptist Church moved into the building. The congregation remained there until the 1990s.

Armoire Buying Info
- An 'armoire' may be a confusing name for some. Basically, the furniture piece is a tall cabinet with drawers, shelves, and doors. They can adopt a variety of sizes and shapes. They can serve many uses, so they remain popular items due to their look and practicality. What are some ways in which you can use your new armoire? Read on to find out more.
- Televisions are ubiquitous items throughout a household, but may be eye soars when not in use. Placing a set in a TV armoire can hide the device while not taking away from the aesthetic interior design. In addition, bigger armoires can also house stereos, DVDs, and other entertainment accessories.
- Wood armoires can serve as a house for your hobbies. For instance, you can place model cars or airplanes, trophies, stamp collections, or other interest items in your armoire, making it serve as an ornate display case.
- Armoires are often present in bedrooms. You can display your television or store clothes. Many people find armoires to serve as a nice supplement to their clothes closets that may offer ample space for shoes and dress shirts, but leave no room for jeans, sweaters, t-shirts, and other items.
- Many women appreciate the space afforded to them by a jewelry armoire. Armoires can house makeup, jewelry, and hair accessories. In addition, depending on the size of the piece, handbags, hand purses, and other dress accessories can be placed within.
- Bathrooms can be adorned with elegant furniture too. Wood armoires can be placed in bathrooms to house towels, hand rags, and assorted linens.
- Place an armoire near the front door to maintain mail, keys, items you don't want to leave without, and more. There are so many beautiful armoires available; you can't go wrong in deciding to place them in any area of your home.

TREND OR TRAGIC: Katy Perry's multi-printed dress?
Katy Perry is renowned for her quirky style and is one of the few people who can get away with looking like she's has a bucket of paint splashed over her.
Earlier this week she was spotted in Sydney sporting a dress that has raised eyebrows here at Sugarscape.
Sure, it's not the most outrageous item of clothing that Miss Perry has ever worn, but there's something about this red dress with it's leopard AND zebra style print that just isn't working for us.
Advertisement - Continue Reading Below
Maybe because it looks slightly dated or the pattern makes our eyes feel confused, but we're just not getting it.
Then again, nothing can ever look that bad on Katy…
What do you think? Reckon it works, would you be seen out in it?

Roasted Pepper and Goat Cheese Sandwiches
- 4 large red or yellow bell peppers, preferably Holland
- 2 tablespoons good olive oil
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons drained capers
- For assembling:
- 1 large ciabatta bread, halved horizontally
- 1 (11-ounce) garlic-and-herb or plain goat cheese (recommended: Montrachet) at room temperature
- 8 to 10 large basil leaves
- 3 thin slices red onion
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
DirectionsWatch how to make this recipe.
Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
Place the whole peppers on a sheet pan and place in the oven for 30 to 40 minutes, until the skins are completely wrinkled and the peppers are charred, turning them twice during roasting. Remove the pan from the oven and immediately cover it tightly with aluminum foil. Set aside for 30 minutes, or until the peppers are cool enough to handle.
Meanwhile, combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
Remove the stem from each pepper and cut them in quarters. Remove the peels and seeds and place the peppers in a bowl along with any juices that have collected. Discard the stems, peels, and seeds. Pour the oil and vinegar mixture over the peppers. Stir in the capers. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for a few hours to allow the flavors to blend.
To assemble the sandwiches, spread the bottom half of the loaf with the goat cheese. Add a layer of peppers and then a layer of basil leaves. Separate the onions into rings and spread out on top. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover with the top half of the ciabatta and cut into individual servings.

I found these on ANS and was wondering if they would work. The top one is saying they are very small and the barbs in my vice are tiny.
Needing to order these to have them at my house by Saturday at the very latest. Only have $10 in paypal so seems like finding them here, nation, IOG, or MCB is out of the question unless someone is just really trying to get rid of them.

I like the prices, $5 entry is the lowest I've ever heard of. It's too far away for me but I'd go if I could.
Posted 31 July 2012 - 02:05 AM
Posted 31 July 2012 - 08:18 AM
The store will be open Mon and Weds 5-8 pm.
The field will be open, 10 am-dark on Saturdays and now the field will be open from 5-8 pm on Fridays.
This should help most that can't always make the Saturday dates. Since there is only 3 - 3 1/2 hour window to play on Fridays, paint will be discounted to compensate.

My husband is 38 years old and having chest pain in left side after having an ECG done the ECG interpretation is- sinus bradycardia otherwise normal ECG. So what does the report says?
Chest pain is a common problem that most people experience. Chest pain can signal anything from a muscle cramp to even an impending heart attack. You should never ignore symptoms of chest pain as it can signal a serious underlying disorder. The details about chest pain are not described here as it is beyond the scope of this article. The focus is on various homeopathic remedies to treat symptoms of chest pain.
Why homeopathy?
Homeopathy is an alternative system of medicine that was started in the year 1796, by Samuel Hahnemann. It is based on the premise that the substance that causes a disorder, if introduced in the right quantity in the body, will cure the same disease. Compared to mainstream medicine, homeopathy products are not synthetic and are free from any side effect.
Homeopathic remedies for chest pain:
The homeopathic remedies that are given below not only treat pain effectively, but also get rid of the actual cause of the pain. The best thing about these remedies is that they are completely free from any side effect, whatsoever. The various homeopathic remedies for chest pain are:
- Rhus Tox: This remedy is effective in treating pain that spreads to the shoulders from the chest; these symptoms tend to worsen in damp and cold weather.
- Arnica Mont: If you experience chest pain along with soreness in the body, this remedy is prescribed.
- Ranunculus B: In case of intercostal rheumatism wherein you experience pain in the muscle between the ribs, this remedy is usually recommended by the practitioner.
- Kali carb: Kali carb is used to treat stitching pain in the chest that worsens during the early hours of the morning.
- Rumex C: This remedy is used to treat pain that develops in the left lung, followed by coughing.
- Bryonia: For a stabbing or a burning chest pain that worsens when you move, Bryonia is considered to be the appropriate remedy.
- Phosphorus: This remedy is recommended when you experience heavy coughing and chest pain caused by pneumonia or tuberculosis.
- Carbo-veg: Carbo-veg is used to treat chest pain resulting from acidity, gas and indigestion.
- Robinia: This remedy is used to treat symptoms of chest pain that originates from behind the sternum (breastbone) as a result of acidity.
My cholesterol is more with high triglycerides and total cholesterol, shall I avoid eggs and it's products, I am a pure vegetarian but I eat egg omelet?

The lifestyle we lead plays an important role. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is important to overcome many diseases as it helps in bringing the blood pressure to normal and in turn reduce the risks of diseases, such as diabetes and hypertension. Factors like smoking, diet, stress and sedentary lifestyle can lead to hypertension and diabetes. Hypertension is known as silent killer as it is symptomless.
There are various traditional medicines known to lower the blood pressure. Also, there are certain herbs that help in controlling blood pressure and preventing other diseases.
Some of these herbs are:
- Basil: This herb has a strong aroma and can be used in the preparation of many foods. It also helps in lowering the blood pressure, though for a brief time. Adding freshly chopped or torn basil to soups, salads, pastas and casseroles not only enhance the taste but are also beneficial for health.
- Cinnamon: This herb requires some effort to add in the diet, but is helpful in maintain the blood pressure. Diabetic people should have cinnamon everyday in some or the other way. Cinnamon can be included by sprinkling over cereals, oats, coffee, stews and curries.
- Cardamom: Cardamom if consumed daily can be helpful in bringing down blood pressure and in turn controlling hypertension and diabetes. Cardamom is very popular in South Asia, the seeds can be powdered and used in stews, soups or baking. It not only has an enhanced flavor but is also packed with numerous health benefits.
- Flaxseed: This is very rich in Omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3 fatty acids are believed to lower the blood pressure and also protect the body against atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. They are known for reducing cholesterol levels, and improving glucose tolerance thus acting as antioxidant. Flaxseeds can be added in smoothies and soups or baked goods.
- Garlic: Garlic often synonymous with bad breath and pungent seasoning has immense health benefits. It dilates and relaxes the blood vessels allowing the blood to flow freely and in turn reduces the blood pressure.
- Ginger: Adding ginger to the diet helps to control the blood pressure. It relaxes the blood vessels and improves the circulation of the blood. Ginger can be used in sweets, savories and beverages and is very common in Asian food.
- Celery seed: This is a diuretic and in China it is used to treat hypertension. This can be used to flavor stews, soups, savory dishes and casseroles. Both the seeds and the plant have various benefits and uses of their own.
- Hawthorn: This herb is used to treat high blood pressure in China. Decoctions of the herb have health benefits such as reduction of blood pressure, controlling hypertension and blood circulation. If you wish to discuss about any specific problem, you can consult a dietitian-nutritionist and ask a free question.
Hi sir I want know about High blood pressure my blood pressure is 140-150/90-100 please guide me for control this diet, exercise daily routine work.
Today I got my lipid profile done. My triglycerides are high at 257.(HDL 48, cholesterol 161) rest seem to be normal. What should I do to bring it in normal range?
I am having hypertension. Last 3 years I am taking Telma 40 at early morning. Now it is raising to 130/93 despite using the tablet. I do no have diabetes and hypothyroidism. Kindly advise me.
Hypertension or High Blood Pressure (HBP) is a long-term or chronic health condition where the pressure of the flow of blood is always high in the arteries. High blood pressure can develop over many years and affects everyone at some point in life but if not treated for a very long time, it can escalate the risks of a number of cardiovascular problems and chronic kidney disorders.
1. Primary hypertension - High blood pressure caused by genetic, prenatal or other natural causes like aging (people over 60 develop HBP) is known as primary hypertension.
2. Secondary hypertension - Secondary hypertension is that which is caused due to specific conditions, like kidney disorders, lung disorders etc.
Blood pressure depends on the amount of blood pumped by the heart and the radius of the blood vessels. The delicate balance can get disturbed due to a number of factors.
Primary hypertension may be caused by genetic factors. There are 35 identified genetic loci related to blood pressure. Mutations in these can cause chronic HBP. Other factors like maternal smoking, deficiency of vitamin D, deficiency of calcium, insufficient breast milk consumption also increase the risk of HBP.
Secondary hypertension is caused by a variety of conditions like hypothyroidism, hypothyroidism, nephritis, asthma, sleep apnea, depression, pregnancy etc. Overconsumption of caffeine, alcohol, sodium and illegal drugs may also be responsible for high blood pressure.
Hypertension may not show any warning symptoms for several years while it continues to develop. A few tell-tale signs are frequent throbbing headaches, shortness of breath, nosebleeds, excessive sweating but these only occur when there is an extremely serious medical complication.
Treatment and Prevention
Hypertension is a common condition, especially after the age of 40. Medication may help control severely high blood pressure to an extent but certain lifestyle changes go a long way in both preventing and treating the disorder. Some of them are:
1. Taking regular blood pressure readings after the age of 25. A normal blood pressure is not more than 120/80 mm Hg.
2. Obesity causes hypertension. A normal Body Mass Index of 30kg/sq. m. is to be maintained.
3. The daily diet should include at least 4 to 6 portions of fruits and vegetables.
4. Salt intake is to be limited.
5. Drinking and smoking are to be minimized.
6. Stress and burnout should be avoided.
Your heart is the most important and vital organ of all and regulates the flow of heart to all parts of the body. Thus, the valves and the arteries which take the blood to your heart are also an important component in ensuring that the circulation is constant. Thus, any hindrance to this process will put a lot of pressure on your heart and lead to more serious problems in the long run. Coronary artery disease is one such problem and can seriously put the health of your heart at risk.
What is coronary heart disease?
Coronary arteries are very important blood vessels, which carry nutrients, blood and oxygen to your heart. If the level of bad cholesterol is high in your blood, it will start leaving deposits on the walls of the arteries which are commonly known as plaque. This plaque will start building up over time causing blockage of the arteries and disrupting proper blood flow. Excessive build up of the plaque may then rupture the lining of the plaque. This will then induce blood clotting and further prevent the normal flow of blood.
Primary symptoms may include
- Shortness of breath: This may occur while you are exercising or performing activities which are mildly exerting.
- Heart beats very hard and fast: Your heart may beat very hard and fast, especially when doing everyday activities such as climbing stairs or walking for a prolonged distance.
- Angina or chest pain: You may experience pain in your chest as if someone was pressing against it with a lot of force. Angina is also triggered due to stressful activities or even emotional stress. It usually occurs on the left or the middle of the chest and may even be felt in the back, arms, and neck.
- Heart attack: Heart attacks are the most common and the most serious complications of coronary heart disease. You would feel extreme pain, akin to crushing on your chest, shoulder, or arm. It may even be accompanied by jaw pain, and sweatiness.
Non invasive forms of treatment are always preferable rather than invasive surgeries or procedures to treat coronary heart disease, especially where the risk of serious complications such as heart attack are still on the lower side. Some of the treatments used for coronary heart disease are as follows:
- Making lifestyle changes: Quit smoking, reduce alcohol consumption along with consumption of regulated diet will automatically start cleaning plaque that has built up within the arteries. Losing weight also tends to help.
- Medications: Special medications can take care of cases wherein the deposits are still lesser and the plaque buildup can be removed without the requirement of extensive surgery. Anti-cholesterol medications are one example of this.
- Surgical procedures: These are usually employed when the blockage is severe and cannot be corrected by the conventional methods mentioned above. Some of the procedures are angioplasty, stent replacement, as well as coronary artery bypass surgery. If you wish to discuss about any specific problem, you can consult a cardiologist and ask a free question.

My colleague here at ThoughtWorks, Jez Humble, contends that the SNAPSHOT model that Maven uses is prohibitive to many of the principles espoused in his book. And I have to say, I largely agree with him.
Before diving into why I agree with him, it's worthwhile to add a bit of context. I'm one of a minority of people in ThoughtWorks that prefer Maven to Ant. That's not to say that we don't deliver projects using Maven, but if given a choice, most ThoughtWorkers prefer Ant. Personally, I have had a long history of using Maven, starting with my work with Spring Batch. That's not to say that Maven doesn't have it's problems, but if given a choice, I'll start a project with Maven. (Why that's the case would certainly be worthy of another blog post) I mention all of this because I am not bringing up issues with the release model of Maven to bash it because I hate the tool. I bring it up because I think there can be improvements in how Maven thinks about and deals with releases.
I remember the first time I had to cut a release with Maven oh so many years ago. I had my project working, everything was in exactly the state I wanted it to be into for release. All I needed to do was create the final cut. Like a good Maven user, I went to check out the documentation for how Maven approached releases. I quickly found the section on the release plugin and thought 'Aha, I just need to use this plugin, and my release will be painless, thanks Maven!' Of course, reality is never that simple. The maven release project has two 'phases' prepare, and then the actual release. Below is a list of what Maven does during the prepare phase, shamelessly pulled from the official plugin site:
- Check that there are no uncommitted changes in the sources
- Check that there are no SNAPSHOT dependencies
- Change the version in the POMs from x-SNAPSHOT to a new version (you will be prompted for the versions to use)
- Transform the SCM information in the POM to include the final destination of the tag
- Run the project tests against the modified POMs to confirm everything is in working order
- Commit the modified POMs
- Tag the code in the SCM with a version name (this will be prompted for)
- Bump the version in the POMs to a new value y-SNAPSHOT (these values will also be prompted for)
- Commit the modified POMs
I didn't understand that process years ago, and I still don't understand it today. I have my codebase, I've tested it thoroughly, both with unit, integration, automated, and manually testing. I just want to take the 'binary' that I've been using, and promote it to production while also taging the SCM revision that created it. Why does a snapshot state even matter? I suppose with external dependencies there are some concerns about APIs changing underneath you. However, what does it matter, you have working code, right now, surely the changing API is a problem for tomorrow, not the release of today?
In my time at ThoughtWorks, and other consulting experience, I have always prognosticated that the same build that a developer makes on his machine, and ultimately what will come out of CI (because he or she commits that revision) should look as identical as possible to what will be in production. Why add an extra step to change anything at all?
In short, I agree with Jez, why can't every artifact created from mvn deploy be potentially a release into production? The only value I've seen the snapshot concept add is away to describe a dependency as 'whatever the latest CI has produced is'. It seems to me its just as easy to say: 'any release greater than x.y' and call it a day, which is something Maven supports now as well, at least from a dependency declaration perspective.

The project is developing methods for rapid surveys and species identification from bulk samples using next-generation sequencing.
Our approach is an adaptation of 'metagenomics' procedures used to study complex mixtures of samples in microbial communities, but using sequences from mitochondrial (mt) genomes.
The large number of mitochondria in each cell ensures that mtDNA is enriched over the nuclear genes. Depending on the species and the tissue used, some 0.2%-1% of all reads in metagenomic sequencing studies are derived from mtDNA. Only this fraction is targeted for sequence analysis, after further enrichment with various procedures that exploit the greater AT content of mtDNA compared to nuclear DNA in insects.
Technology produces huge numbers of sequence reads, which permits the cost effective analysis of mtDNA even if they constitute only a small fraction of the total.
Advantages over PCR-based technologies
such as 'DNA barcoding' (the sequencing of Cytochrome Oxidase I).
We employ a protocol that accommodates the need for de novo assembly as well as for identification against a reference database of mitogenome sequences.
Reference mitogenomes can be obtained from pooled or individualized specimens either by long-range PCR or by direct sequencing from genomic DNA at high sequencing depth at a cost of £20 pounds with current technology.
The identification of specimens requires ~100x less sequencing depth and can be performed on very large pools of hundreds of species.
The approach therefore can easily be integrated with studies of taxonomic turnover along perturbation gradients or other functional studies of ecosystems that require species identifications for multiple samples.

Henry Allan Gleason was an American botanist, plant geographer, and plant ecologist who lived from January 2, 1882 until April 12, 1975. Gleason was born in Dalton City, Il.. He began his studies at the age of 13 and published his first contribution in The American Naturalist while still in high school. He received his B.S. and M. A. from the University of Illinois. After a year of fellowship with the University of Ohio and a summer as the zoologist of invertebrates on a survey of Isle Royale, Gleason began his studies in taxonomy under Nathaniel Lord Britton at Columbia University, graduating with a Ph.D. in 1906.
Gleason taught at the University of Illinois and the University of Michigan, studied tropical vegetation for one year and delivered a lecture to the Torrey Botanical Club. After the talk, Nathaniel Lord Britton offered Gleason a permanent position at the New York Botanical Garden.
In his 30 years with the New York Botanical Garden, Gleason served in a variety of capacities including curator, head curator, and assistant director. He was acting director for 19 months between 1936 and 1938. Gleason served at various times as editor of the Garden Journal, Addisonia, and the Bulletin. He edited revised and expanded editions of the North American Flora and Plants of the Vicinity of New York.
One of the first ecologist, he considered his idea that "The combination of morphological and geographical evidence can be of greatest service in developing the phylogeny and history of a group of plants."was his primary theoretical contribution. He is identified with the individualistic concept of plant association, which has had strong influence on both ecological and geographical studies of vegetation.
Gleason's diaries contain pages that pertain to his field trips to what is now the Henry Allan Gleason Nature Preserve located in the southwestern portion of the forest. The pages describe trips made in 1904, 1910, 1962, and 1966. Gleason referred to the area as "Devil's Neck," or Devil's Tower." In 1910, a major article entitled, The Vegetation of the Inland Sand Deposits of Illinois was published in the Illinois State Laboratory of Natural History Bulletin. In that article and in his diaries he describes the plants that are unique to the area.
Gleason was still alive when the Illinois Nature Preserves Commission dedicated the Henry Allan Gleason Memorial Nature Preserve. The dedication letter is dated January 25, 1971. The area known locally as Devil's Neck was the site where much of Gleason's early work and research occurred here in Illinois. This research lead Gleason to form his individualistic concept of the plant association theory. The article was published in the Torry Botanical Club Bulletin, 53:7-26.
