Janet Jackson Gossip
Janet Jackson gossip, latest news, photos, and video.
Stay home from school day
As you've probably heard, Janet Jackson was supposed to play Montreal last night. Instead, at the last minute, she fell ill during sound check, was taken to hospital, released 2 hours later, leaving thousands of fans without a show. Promoters have promised to make it up. Meanwhile, Janet is said to be fine, and getting ready for her next stop in Boston. Full Story
Shelfy's Best Work
Jessica Biel… she's like the Tiger Woods of famewhorage, you know? Shelfy keeps outdoing herself. Predicable yes, but nonetheless, the sheer shamelessness of her constant campaigns is impressive. And the latest is the best yet. Because it covers so many angles. 1. You'll recall, a couple of weeks ago, her Easy Virtue director was quoted calling her an idiot Full Story
Hardly Anyone Cared
Seriously… I felt badly for Janet Jackson. I mean it's Janet Jackson, right? She released a new album this year which has totally unperformed, it's been all Mimi and Madonna and no Damita Jo, and she showed up on the carpet tonight and all of us on the press line were like – oh yeah, Janet Jackson. Full Story
Whitesnake Jackson
Here I go again on my ownGoin' down the only road I've ever known Sigh… I miss the 80s. And I miss this video. Pure 80s rock video cheese. With Tawny Kitaen (isn't that the best name ever???!!??) writhing on top of a jaguar… they just don't make videos like that anymore, you know? Or perhaps they do. Full Story
Flu Job
Us Weekly is reporting that Janet Jackson was hospitalised last night because of shortness of breath. Her rep subsequently clarified that it was the flu. The flu? Do you believe the flu? With all that money and resources, she can't afford home care? Or is it because you can't give someone a nose job/tummy tuck/boob lift/etc etc etc at home? Not that Janet would ever, right? Not that there are any fake parts on her body, right? In some circles, there are those who believe she actually had a rod inserted into her abs to make them look the way they do. Full Story
Lean, Tight
Riding pants require – demand – no jiggle. And Janet Jackson was owning them last night in NYC. Girl looks amazing! his is of course tenth time or so in as many years that she has bounced back from weight gain, only to lose it rapidly and claim to have conquered yo-yo dieting for good. But now Janet is writing a book about the subject, to share her experience and her struggles with the world. Full Story
No Photos don"t mean No Love
Who said they broke up? Just because they hadn't been photographed together for a few months? Rubbish. Joshua Jackson and Diane Kruger were adorable in Cannes, they were equally adorable in London the other night at the Serpentine Gallery party – normally the best party of the summer but decidedly short on star factor this year. Full Story
The Lovely Bones
Did you read it? Did you love it? I loved it. Fiercely loved it. And I don't understand – why must a book become a movie? I remember being at work and not working. Reading instead and crying over my keyboard at the end, and Erin sitting next to me rushing me through. And two days later she did the same thing. Full Story
Dear Gossips,
After 16 days in Cannes, finally leaving for home tomorrow and not soon enough. Am ready to detox and dry out…which just goes to show – am old and lame. Because for some, for the Eurotrash jetset and for Lindsay Lohan, full time partying is a lifestyle, though in Lilo's case, that lifestyle is about to come to an end…hopefully behind bars.
Cannes Film Festival closing weekend – saw Diane Kruger and Joshua Jackson the other day, still very much in love and another case of misguided gossip based solely on a lack of photos. As for Diane… I think, for the first time, I think I finally get it.
Monday, back to live blogging, check back often for new posts.
Yours in gossip,
Josh & Diane in Cannes
Joshua Jackson and Diane Kruger – under the radar for what seems like an eternity – showed up in Cannes at the weekend dispelling rumours of a split. First a private party on a yacht – Josh looking a little pale and pasty and Diane cutting an elegant figure in a beautiful gauzy white dress. Full Story
Not Rachel Stevens
Many of you emailed yesterday, noting that the girl with Justin Timberlake in the UK looked more like Rachel Stevens than Jessica Biel, as identified by British gossips. Have a look - more photos attached, the face is still not clear but that shelf ass is unmistakable, gossips…it's Jessica Biel. Full Story

|Training Teachers to Promote 'Social Justice'
Disparagement of knowledge was evident at the National Council for the Social Studies conference I attended last November in Atlanta. There, 3,200 teachers were continuing their studies in pedagogy, and gaining continuing and graduate credit to bump them into higher salaries. Most worked for public schools, so taxpayers footed the bill: the $267 registration fee, plus membership dues, travel and lodging, and the hiring of substitute teachers.
I estimate that about a third of the presenters at these workshops were affiliated with universities, mostly education schools; others included high school teachers, government officials, curriculum producers, or the staff of left-wing non-profits engaged in education. At such workshops, taxpayers are helping teachers learn new techniques for advancing the cause of "social justice" in classrooms from kindergarten to college.
The idea of social justice is opposed to traditional American notions of justice based on individual rights, without regard for group membership. Social justice is Marxist in conception and typically adopts a far left agenda: acceptance of homosexuality and alternative lifestyles, radical feminism and abortion rights, illegal immigration, cultural relativism, equality of outcomes in education and work, and a redistribution of wealth.
"Social justice" is often promoted through student-directed learning, most recently called "constructivism," because students are supposed to "construct" their own knowledge. This kind of constructivism, however, fails to improve student learning. Paul A. Kirschner, John Sweller, and Richard E. Clark say it all in the title of their 2006 Educational Psychologist article, "Why Minimal Guidance During Instruction Does Not Work: An Analysis of the Failure of Constructivist, Discovery, Problem-Based, Experiential, and Inquiry-Based Teaching."
All of those names are used by education theorists to put a new spin on what Kirschner, Sweller, and Clark accurately call unguided learning or minimal guidance learning. They conclude, "After a half-century associated with instruction using minimal guidance, it appears that there is no body of research supporting the technique. In so far as there is any evidence from controlled studies, it almost uniformly supports direct, strong instructional guidance rather than constructivist-based minimal guidance during the instruction of novice to intermediate learners."
One of the studies they cited found that medical students who used problem-based learning (PBL) made more errors than those taught the traditional way. PBL, furthermore, was more costly. The problem with such minimal-guidance pedagogy is that the short-term memory is forced to do the work of long-term memory. The brain is asked to simultaneously search for knowledge, pull together data, and apply it. With no store of knowledge upon which to draw, mental energy is wasted. No learning takes place because nothing is put into long-term memory.
These studies back up what common sense and hundreds of years of education tell us: that one needs a base of knowledge first in order to know what to look for when conducting research and doing problem-solving.
But such lessons fall on deaf ears when it comes to teaching our teachers. Maryanne Malecki, who led one of the workshops, goes into seventh- and eighth-grade classrooms, to, as she proudly proclaimed, "champion social justice." WAMC Public Radio in Albany, New York, her employer, receives funding from the Educational Foundation of America (EFA) to pay her salary. The EFA, according to its website, gives grants in the areas of the arts, democracy, education, environment, health and human services, peace and security, and reproductive rights. Malecki bragged to the assembled teachers that she really works as a "stealth teacher" in "collusion" with the classroom teacher.
Undeterred by common sense, poor test scores, and lack of research to back up their claims, the ideologues in the classroom put the cart before the horse and have twelve- and thirteen-year-olds "brainstorm." So, the groups of social studies teachers in Malecki's "interactive" workshop gathered into little groups, as she has her students do, and brainstormed to come up with research topics. We came up with the topics of "trends and fads," legalization of marijuana, the high cost of college, gun violence, Afghanistan, abortion, poverty and kids, and youth culture. Then we were asked to come up with five questions for each topic in three minutes, an exercise that would presumably eliminate the "shocker" topics kids like - like abortion - that do not lend themselves to research because positions are not supported by data, but by religious beliefs and emotions.
I would bet money that many of the sources chosen for such "research" would be from public broadcasting, which has a plethora of curriculum materials - also available at many booths and workshops at the conference. In the Wild West of the Internet, students are likely to use sources with an ideological tinge. I would also bet that students would come up with such topics because they had heard about them from teachers.
In fact, just about every "unguided learning session" at the conference seemed to be guided by a "stealth" teacher with an ideological agenda and a contempt for knowledge. "'Doing' Social Studies in Georgia," an all-day workshop, said it all through its title that replaced "learning" with "doing." Here, students who had participated in the Georgia Governors Program enthused about being inspired to research the history of hippies and the "rape of Africa," eleventh-graders collaborated on exploring feelings of various groups the song "Home on the Range" evoked, the Ron Clark Rappers performed their Obama rap song, a student group "shared" about attending the Obama inauguration, and several student groups bragged about their work in service learning.
Other sessions I attended included:
I tried to attend a representative sample of workshops. All were driven by emotion and politics; not one had anything to do with academic knowledge. Although the presenters claimed that instructor guidance was minimal, the fact is that when students lack a base of knowledge, they usually flounder. They look to their "guides on the side" for their ideas. The "stealth teacher" of "social justice," who has manipulated them emotionally, pretends that the students are coming up with topics and conclusions on their own!
As a result, we have ill-informed college students who think they know it all because they can look it up on the Internet. At the same time, they hold precisely the same views that their teachers have on "social justice." If there is a more clever way of brainwashing, I don't know what it is.

Federal court hears arguments in DOMA challenge
Originally printed 5/13/2010 (Issue 1819 - Between The Lines News)
BOSTON - On May 6 in Boston, six years after the first same-sex couples in the country started marrying in Massachusetts, eight married same-sex couples and three widowers went to federal district court to hear arguments in their challenge to Section 3 of the federal Defense of Marriage Act. DOMA defines marriage as only between a man and a woman for all purposes under federal law.
Represented by Gay & Lesbian Advocates & Defenders, the plaintiffs in Gill et al. v. Office of Personnel Management, all married in Massachusetts, have each been harmed by DOMA treating them as unmarried.
"This is a classic equal protection issue. The Constitution applies to gay and lesbian citizens, and married ones, too," Mary L. Bonauto, GLAD's Civil Rights Project director, told the court.
"What governmental purpose does the U.S. have as an employer in treating some of its married employees, retirees and surviving annuitants differently from other married persons, such that (plaintiff) Nancy Gill pays for a self and family plan like some of her married colleagues, but the plan doesn't cover her own spouse?"
Bonauto presented a three-pronged legal argument.
By singling out only the marriages of same-sex couples, DOMA violates the equal protection clause of the United States Constitution; DOMA represents an unprecedented intrusion of the federal government into marriage law, which for 230 years has been legislated by states; and by denying federal protections to families, DOMA burdens the marriages of same-sex couples and their right to maintain family integrity.
U.S. District Court Judge, Joseph L. Tauro, vigorously questioned plaintiffs and defendants in a courtroom packed with supporters and media. Judge Tauro heard GLAD's motion for summary judgment as well as the federal government's motion to dismiss. The hearing addressed the core issue of whether DOMA Section 3 is constitutional six years after the first same-sex couples in the country started marrying in Massachusetts, the result of GLAD's groundbreaking marriage case, Goodridge v. Department of Public Health.
As a result of DOMA, passed by Congress in 1996, plaintiffs in GLAD's lawsuit have been denied survivor benefits on a deceased spouse's pension; denied health insurance coverage for a spouse on a federal family plan; denied Social Security spousal, death, and widower benefits; and denied the ability to file federal income taxes jointly as married.
"DOMA means that our country doesn't treat our family or our marriage as equal to our friends' and coworkers' families," said Gill after the hearing. A U.S. Postal Service employee, Gill, with her spouse Marcelle Letourneau, is raising two children in Brockton, Mass. "Under DOMA, we are not married, and my federal employer must deny Marcelle my health benefits," she continued. "Under DOMA, Marcelle won't receive the federal health benefit given to surviving spouses. She'll also be denied my pension benefits."
The case was filed on March 3 and has been called the case with the greatest potential for national impact by the National Law Journal. The Gill legal team is led by Bonauto and GLAD Legal Director Gary Buseck, as well as staff attorneys Nima Eshghi, Janson Wu and Samuel Bickett.
Gay & Lesbian Advocates & Defenders is New England's leading legal organization dedicated to ending discrimination based on sexual orientation, HIV status and gender identity and expression.
Information about the case, the plaintiffs and the attorneys representing them can be found at http://www.glad.org/doma.

This same troublemaker has occupied my fridge, too. Methinks there's a movement afoot.
I used to only drink skim milk constantly found out it is sugar and water from dr. oz and now i get 2 percent for me and my hubby..We use it in everything to get our calcium, I do use half and half for the many cups of tea I drink daily and to bake and cook with it gives the recipes I make an extra dose of creaminess..Enjoy your blog daily...just saying!!!!!!!
Thanks Anon. As a frequent Atkins devotee, I knew skim had more carbs than 2 percent or even (be still my heart) whole milk. I always put a little half and half in my coffee and - when I'm on the Atkins wagon - add it to some whole milk ricotta with a little cinnamon and stevia for a luscious dessert. (I need to get back to the 'daily' bit. Just taking a little break.)

Film-maker Muazzam Beg is all set to unveil the first look of his film Munna Bhai, Sallu Bhai, which is based on the lives of Sanjay Dutt and Salman Khan.
The director Beg is planning on launching the first look of the film on Salman Khan's birthday. Salman will turn 48 on December 27 and the cast and crew of the film have arranged a cake cutting ceremony at Bandra's Gaiety Galaxy.
"When we started shooting in Ajmer, people on sets would ask me if we would also celebrate Salman's birthday. I said yes and here we are, all geared up for it. We want to celebrate the day with the actor's die-hard fans and also take the opportunity to unveil the first look of the film," he said.
The film stars debutant actors Shresth Kumar, Zubair Khan and Anjali Arora in key roles and is slated to release in 2014.

Most likely Galt heard Willie Anschutz rattling the bathroom door, a disruption that doubtless would have tried his concentration.

Such a concentration has its comedy as well as a surreal grandeur.

Nepal's prime minister on Monday thanked "Absolutely Fabulous" actress Joanna Lumley for her outspoken campaign to give thousands of Gurkha war veterans and their families the right to settle in Britain.
Gurkhas have been serving as soldiers for the British for nearly 200 years, but Britain had limited their right to settle there, saying allowing in tens of thousands of veterans and their families would cost taxpayers billions.
Lumley – who in the TV comedy series played Patsy, a chain-smoking magazine editor who slept her way to the top – became the face of their campaign.
She said she was drawn to the cause because her father fought alongside Gurkha soldiers in World War II.
In May, the British government agreed to allow thousands of Gurkhas the automatic right to settle there.
It was the same month that Lumley bumped into Immigration Minister Phil Woolas at a restaurant in Parliament and persuaded him to hold an impromptu news conference during which she harangued him publicly over government policy.
Nepalese Prime Minister Madhav Kumar Nepal and President Ram Baran Yadav thanked Lumley on Monday.
"You have championed the cause of Gurkhas. For this social justice, I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to you and to all of your team members," Yadav said.
Earlier in the day, Gurkha veterans honored Lumley at city hall in the capital, Katmandu.
"I am very happy that I am at my home in Nepal," Lumley told the cheering crowd. "For my first visit to Nepal but not the last, it makes me so proud to know that I have been here accepted as the daughter of Nepal. Thank you for that."
Lumley was mobbed by hundreds of Gurkha war veterans and their families as she arrived at the airport on Sunday. She greeted them with thanks and the Gurkha battle-cry "Ayo Gurkhali."
Since 2004, Britain had allowed only those Gurkhas who retired after July 1, 1997, to settle there. It had argued that those who retired before 1997 – when the Gurkha base was in Hong Kong, then a British colony – had weak links with Britain.
The Gurkhas have served Britain with distinction since 1815. In some years, as many as 60,000 seek to join the British military.

Zalicus was formed by the merger of Neuromed, a private company, and CombinatoRx (formerly CRXX), and has the two drug discovery platforms it inherited from the two companies. Exalgo was a Neuromed program, developed through the company's selective ion channel modulation platform. Their next program, an advanced calcium channel blocker named Z944, is beginning the toxicology studies required before a Phase I safety trial in 2011. Z160, a novel oral calcium channel blocker, has just been selected as a clinical candidate for a Phase 1 clinical start by the end of this year. A previous formulation of Z160 was studied in clinical trials of over 200 subjects and was well tolerated.
Zalicus recently published preclinical data on a new sodium channel modulator, Z212, to control pain. It both reduces the excitability of neurons and reverses pain hypersensitivity. Z212 also could make it into a Phase I human trial this year. One or two other candidates based on the same technology could also go into Phase I late this year or early in 2012.
Zalicus has an extensive patent portfolio in ion channel blockers. The company's business model is to get most drugs through Phase IIa dosing trials with some efficacy data, and then partner them for further development on someone else's nickel. The pain medication market is huge, over $14 billion, and current drugs often have gastrointestinal and cardiovascular side effects, or are highly addictive.
Their other drug discovery platform, developed at CombinatoRx, is a synergistic combination high throughput screening system. They take two approved drugs, combine them, and screen for a better drug for the original indication, or an all-new indication. Because the side-effect and clinical profiles of the two approved drugs are known, they can have some confidence that the safety trials will go well, and focus on efficacy.
The lead drug candidate here is Synavive, a once-a-day pill that has completed multiple Phase II studies and is about to start a Phase IIb trial in rheumatoid arthritis in the June quarter. This Synergy trial is a 12-week, five-arm, global, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Synavive in approximately 250 subjects with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis. Subjects who complete the core Synergy study will be eligible to participate in a one-year extension study designed to investigate the long-term safety and durability of their response to Synavive.
In addition to rheumatoid arthritis, Synavive may be useful in osteoarthritis and Crohn's disease, as it amplifies and reduces the need for steroid therapy. A key composition-of-matter patent was just allowed by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, and will be issued soon. This patent, along with the already-issued method-of-use patent, provides coverage of Synavive until 2028.
The company also has a discovery collaboration with Novartis using the high throughput screening platform for oncology research, which Novartis just extended to May 2012. Zalicus just began a second funded research phase of another oncology pilot program with Amgen. Sanofi-Aventis is another partner since they acquired Fovea, which licensed Prednisporin for ophthalmic applications from Zalicus and recently completed a Phase IIb study in persistent allergic conjunctivitis. We should hear about the next steps with Prednisporin soon. Zalicus gets a $3 million milestone when this goes in Phase III trials, and up to $37 million in additional future milestone payments, plus royalties.
Although ZLCS is up nicely from my original recommendation, they still have a total market capitalization of less than $190 million. Against that, they have $46.5 million in cash, no debt, a $254.6 million net operating loss carryforward, and a drug on the market that will show accelerating royalties in every quarter of 2010. Exalgo alone is worth $1.50 a share. I still think ZLCS will end 2011 between $4 and $7 a share, roughly a double or triple from current prices, and be one of the top-performing stocks of the year. This remains what some call an oxymoron: A low-risk development-stage biotech.

ROM publishes iconic collection of
Canadian writing to mark its Centennial
Twenty-one writers celebrate 21 objects from ROM Collection
Features Joseph Boyden, Margaret MacMillan and Deepa Mehta among others
Partnership with the Walrus Foundation and House of Anansi to mark ROM's Centennial
Created exclusively using iBooks Author
Toronto, April 8, 2014 – In celebration of the Royal Ontario Museum's Centennial, the ROM, in partnership with the Walrus Foundation and House of Anansi Press, proudly present Every Object Has a Story – an anthology featuring twenty-one Canadian writers, artists, filmmakers, poets, and scientists, along with ROM curators and experts, sharing their personal connections with twenty-one extraordinary objects from the ROM's world-renowned collections.
To highlight some of the Museum's iconic objects as well as hidden gems, the celebrated authors worked with editors of The Walrus and ROM curators to choose items from the ROM's collections as inspiration. Highlighted in the compilation are Joseph Boyden's observations about a Blackfoot war robe found at a Scottish estate sale, and filmmaker Deepa Mehta's childhood memories of how the Shiva Nataraja's dance of bliss prompted her to learn the twist. See the rare meteorite that inspires astronaut Chris Hadfield, and read Guy Vanderhaeghe's reflection on the duckbilled Parasaurolophus walkeri.
"As we celebrate the ROM's Centennial and reflect on our incredible, encyclopaedic collection, it was important for us to find new ways to share the Museum's stories and objects beyond our gallery walls," says Janet Carding, ROM Director and CEO. "This book celebrates some of the natural and cultural masterpieces from the ROM, and with the help of our curatorial experts, as well as the voices of renowned Canadians, this unique collection of writing offers new ways of experiencing the Museum. We are absolutely delighted to partner with the Walrus Foundation and the House of Anansi to create this inspiring, keepsake collection."
"This is an exciting moment for the Walrus Foundation and for all those who have contributed to Every Object Has a Story," says John Macfarlane, Editor of The Walrus. "The Walrus is a forum for discussion on matters vital to Canadians, and we strive to promote Canadian talent and ideas in each of our many projects. It has been a privilege to bring together the writing of so many distinguished Canadians in one exceptional book - all in celebration of one of our finest cultural institutions, the ROM."
Every Object Has a Story, created using iBooks Author, is now available for iPad and Mac for $14.99 exclusively on iBooks at www.iTunes.com/ROM100.
The hard copy is available on April 8, 2014 in ROM Stores and through the Walrus Foundation webstore at http://store.walrusmagazine.com/ for $29.95 ($27 for ROM Members). It will be available in other major bookstores on April 15, 2014.

WAHPETON, N.D. — Gov. Jack Dalrymple and Maj. Gen. David Sprynczynatyk, North Dakota adjutant general, along with other elected and military leaders and community supporters, filled the Claire T. Blikre Activities Center at North Dakota State College of Science today to honor North Dakota Army National Guard soldiers and their families.
About 160 members of the 188th Engineer Company (Vertical) received awards during the Freedom Salute ceremony. The soldiers returned in August from a yearlong deployment to Kuwait.
"It was a great day when we welcomed the men and women of the 188th Engineer Company back home to North Dakota and to their families, and now today, we celebrate their return and thank them for a job well done," Dalrymple said. "While in Kuwait, they accomplished an impressive amount of work and completed their mission with pride and distinction. We are grateful to them and their families for their service and sacrifice."
The soldiers' families also were presented awards today.
"To the families: I know you have the toughest job during a deployment," Sprynczynatyk said. "I sincerely acknowledge your own dedicated service and thank you for all that you've done to maintain things at home while supporting your soldier on this deployment."
He also thanked the soldiers' employers, saying that without their support, the North Dakota National Guard would not be as successful.
Sen. John Hoeven and Congressman Rick Berg thanked the soldiers during the ceremony, as well.
The unit also had its own awards to present. Capt. Lucas Klettke, 188th Engineer Company commander, and 1st Sgt. Eric Binstock, the unit's senior enlisted leader, presented an Outstanding Center of Influence award — in the form of a Minuteman statue — to Monty Zimmer, Oakes, N.D., mayor. They also presented the Unit Distinguished Center of Influence — a picture mural — to Jim Sturdevant, Wahpeton, N.D., mayor. The 188th Company is based in Wahpeton with a detachment in Oakes.
Previously, the unit presented Certificates of Appreciation to more than 60 businesses, organizations and individuals "who provided outstanding support throughout the deployment and who also contributed to the community-sponsored welcome event, Sept. 22, which also was proclaimed by the Wahpeton City Counsel as 'Welcome Home Troops Day,'" Klettke said.
During the soldiers' time in Kuwait, they dedicated numerous hours to assist with the drawdown from the war in Iraq as well as provided construction support on dozens of projects. More than 160 missions were completed, including eight trailer renovations and construction of a dining facility and theater. More than 83,000 hours were spent doing construction and another 3,000-plus hours were spent operating equipment.
During the deployment, 45 of the unit's soldiers re-enlisted, agreeing to extend their service in the military even while away from their families and friends.

Hi guys
I hope you can help
I have a text box which has auto generated text depending on the date selected from the calendar
The problem I have is that I need this value to pass to ajax but as I am not actually entering the text myself I cannot use onChange,onkeydown onkeyup as the text changes depending on the date chosen from the calendar
The script works fine when i type in the actual text box itself
Is there anyway I could use the functionality of onkeyup or onkeydown without actually entering a value. I want it to update when the text box is updated dynamically?
Thanks in advance
If you can't edit the calendar code to fire off an ajax function when a new date is selected then one option could be to set up a setInterval to poll the value of the textbox, say every 2 secs, and if the value has changed then fire off an ajax request. Something like this as a starting point:
<form action="" method="post" >
<select id="sel1" name="sel1" onchange="doThis(this.value);">
<option value="">Choose a value</option>
<option value="val1">Value 1</option>
<option value="val2">Value 2</option>
<option value="val3">Value 3</option>
<option value="val4">Value 4</option>
<input type="text" id="txt1" name="txt1" />
<script type="text/javascript">
function doThis(val){
document.getElementById('txt1').value = val;
function checkVal(elem){
if(elem.value != elem.prevValue){
alert('textbox value has changed');
elem.prevValue = elem.value;
var txt1obj = document.getElementById('txt1');
txt1obj.value = '';
txt1obj.prevValue = ''
The <select> simulates your calendar.
Which calendar are you using? Maybe it has some features that we can help you use to achieve what you need to do.
I am using http://jqueryui.com/demos/datepicker/
On that page select hte Events tab, and you will see an event called onSelect which is designed to do what you need here.

Well, it's here, the end of the year. There were moments when it seemed like it would never get here. Then time would speed up and we couldn't believe it was December.

It's a by-product of my favorite hobby — worrying.
With a tumultuous year coming to a close and (if we can rely on the accuracy of the Mayan calendar) perhaps the world as we know it in 2012, there's a lot to bite our nails over.
Should the world end in either fire or ice in 2012, I can at least check off a few 2011 happenings here at home and around the world from my worrywart agenda.
Life after Oprah
Wish in one hand, spit in the other because in the end it generally amounts to the same thing.
I shall nevertheless toss out some some wishes for the new year, minus all the "whirled peas" pablum that generally makes these kind of columns remarkably boring.
Instead, I'll focus on things that could actually happen here.

Letter From Dr. Stephen I. Katz:
Highlights from the NIAMS Intramural Research Program
Dear Colleagues:
The NIAMS Intramural Research Program (IRP) has an established tradition of excellence, with a strong focus on long-term, high-risk research into the genetics and pathophysiology of human disease, and the development of innovative therapies for a number of serious disorders for which satisfactory treatments previously did not exist. The IRP receives approximately 10 percent of the Institutes budget, and I would like to share an update on this important program.
For much of 2014, the intramural research programs across the NIH have been taking a look inward to develop a vision for intramural research for the next decade and beyond. At the request of NIH Director Francis S. Collins, M.D., Ph.D., NIAMS and other Institutes consulted with experts to elaborate on what makes the IRP unique, and how those traits can be leveraged and enhanced for the future. In addition, an Advisory Committee to the NIH Director (ACD) Working Group was assembled to examine and assess the IRP to identify areas of opportunity, enhance the uniqueness of the IRP, evaluate the sustainability of current approaches, and guide the future vision of the IRP. The Working Group reported on its findings at the December 11, 2014, meeting, making recommendations regarding research, workforce, training, and infrastructure and facilities. The NIH and the NIAMS are considering these recommendations as we strive to continuously improve our program.
As we consider the path intramural research will take in the future, NIAMS investigators continue to generate outstanding basic, translational, and clinical research discoveries that have a significant impact. Basic research conducted in NIAMS laboratories is furthering our understanding of how the genome works to control gene expression, and how errors in those processes can lead to disease. In addition, translational research is enhancing understanding of cardiovascular disease risk in lupus and other autoimmune diseases, potentially leading to novel interventions. The NIAMS clinical program continues to excel in identifying the genetic basis of rare pediatric autoinflammatory diseases. Some of the characteristics of these conditions appear in other immune diseases, and the work could lead to novel insights and new treatments that reach far beyond a single rare disease.
In addition to enhancing the NIAMS research mission, the IRP also is a key component of training the next generation of researchers, and hosts several innovative programs to meet this goal. Our Summer Research Program provides outstanding opportunities for high school, undergraduate, graduate, and medical students contemplating a career in biomedical research or academic medicine to gain valuable experience. In addition, NIAMS has developed a robust series of research and training programs for clinician-researchers. The combination of our Rheumatology Fellowship, Scholars in Translational Science, and Assistant Clinical Investigator programs are developing a robust cohort of highly skilled investigators who will conduct clinical research throughout the nation for years to come.
Finally, I would like to highlight two recent scientific honors that the NIAMS IRP Scientific Director John OShea, M.D., received. In April, Dr. OShea was named the 2014 recipient of the Ross Prize in Molecular Medicine. Conferred by the Feinstein Institute for Medical Research and the journal Molecular Medicine, the Ross Prize is bestowed upon an active investigator who has produced innovative, paradigm-shifting research that is worthy of significant and broad attention in the field of molecular medicine. In addition, this fall, Dr. OShea was elected a member of the prestigious Institute of Medicine (IOM). Election to the IOM is considered one of the highest honors in the fields of health and medicine, and recognizes individuals who have demonstrated outstanding professional achievement and commitment to service. We are very proud of Dr. OSheas accomplishments.
As you can see, the NIAMS IRP plays a vital role in the mission of the Institute, and in the scientific community. You can keep up to date on our IRP through the NIAMS website and the IRP Facebook page.

Island Escape - Great Time: Island Escape Cruise Review by Lesley Martin
Overall Member Rating
Island Escape - Great Time
Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean
Embarkation: Other
Stayed in an outside cabin - two bunk beds. The room was clean and tidy and cleaned everyday. Our steward was lovely and great with the kids. The shower was superb.
Food and drink was wonderful. I can't thank the staff enough, they done such a wonderful job. All of the food was laid out as a buffet. We really liked the Island Restaurant because the staff were so lovely, got to sit either at the same table every night or the same area with the same staff. The 24 hour restaurant was really good aswell, you could sit outside and eat your meals.
The entertainment was fab. It was a bit difficult for us due to two small children. The kids club was open several times a day. My daughter went once but preferred being in the swimming pool. The ocean theatre shows were amazing. We liked the Bounty lounge as the kids could go up to dance. Had a variety of entertainment More to suit everyone. The swimming pool is cold and its salt water. Once you take the plunge and jump in then the water isn't that bad.
We didn't do any Thomsons excursions so i can't comment on them. The places we visited were great - France, Italy, Spain.
We were made to feel so welcome and met a lot of lovely people. Would highly recommend this cruise. If i got the chance i would go again next year. Less

Writing a Debt Settlement Offer Letter
A debt settlement offer letter is a negotiation tool that can help you to deal with unsecured debts like credit card debts. When you become unable to pay the debts that you have incurred, trying to settle or negotiate your debt with your creditors can be a better alternative for both you and the lender. However, you want to make sure you understand exactly what you are doing when you write a debt settlement letter and that you both write it correctly and send it at the right time in order to have the best chances of success.
Tips for Debt Settlement Letters
When writing a debt settlement letter, there are a few key things you should include:
- You will want to ensure you are sending the letter to the correct person- someone who actually has the power to negotiate with you. Send the letter to the collections department or, even better, to the name of a specific supervisor in that department if you have been speaking to someone on the phone.
- You should consider sending the letter certified mail so you can be certain it is received. You will also want to keep a record of any correspondence or response so if the lender agrees to a negotiated debt settlement, you will have written proof of it
- You should firmly and clearly state what you are offering to the lender. Usually, you can negotiate to pay less than the actual amount of the debt that you owe, but you'll have a better chance of doing so if you offer to make the payment in a lump sum. If your settlement letter offers a payment plan, the lender is going to have less incentive because there's no guarantee you'll actually follow through with that repayment plan.
- You may wish to try to negotiate for other things in the settlement letter too- for example, you may request that if you settle the debt, they will delete the negative information (including the information about the settlement) from your credit report.
The best time to send your letter is usually after you are a few months behind on payments, but do not wait too long of a period of time or the creditor could sell your account off to a collections agency.
Getting Help
In the vast majority of instances, it is a wise investment to hire a debt settlement attorney to write your debt settlement letter for you. Your attorney will know exactly what the letter should contain and the lender is likely going to take you more seriously if you have gotten legal help involved.

Published methods to isolate DNA from insects are not always effective in xylophagous insects because they have high concentrations of phenolics and other secondary plant compounds in their digestive tracts. A simple, reliable and labor-effective cetyltrimethylammonium bromide-polyvinylpyrrolidone (CTAB-PVP) method for isolation of high quality DNA from xylophagous insects is described. This method was successfully applied to PCR and restriction analysis, indicating removal of common inhibitors. DNA isolated by the CTAB-PVP method could be used in most molecular analyses.
Insect species that directly feed on wood play important functional roles in forest ecosystems, as they contribute to nutrient cycling [
Phenolics are recognized as the major contaminants in DNA preparations from plants [
We evaluated the effectiveness of the traditionally used CTAB method for isolation of DNA from the xylophagous insect,
The type of contaminations arising in DNA isolated from biological material varies according to its origin (e.g., organism, tissue, life stage) [
The isolated DNA using both methods was tested for PCR amplification. Amplifications of a mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I (COI) gene fragment using fresh DNA obtained with both methods were successfully achieved. However, amplification of the COI gene fragment was observed only for the CTAB-PVP isolated-DNA after the DNA samples had been stored for three months (
For DNA isolation, we used larvae at the last instar of the borer beetle
Electrophoresis was conducted using 1% TAE agarose gels. Gels were stained with ethidium bromide, and visualized under UV light. The quality of DNA isolated by the CTAB traditional method and the CTAB-PVP modified method was estimated by measuring the A260/280 absorbance ratio using a spectrophotometer (Perkin-Elmer Corp., Norwalk, CT, USA). A fragment of ∼650 base pairs of the COI gene (corresponding to the DNA universal barcoding region) was amplified from the freshly isolated DNA and DNA that had been stored for three months. The forward primer LCO (5′-GGTCAACAAATCATAAAGATATTGG-3′) and reverse primer HCO (5′-TAAACTTCAGGGTGACCAAAAAATCA-3′) were used for this purpose. PCR amplifications were carried out using a ramping-down of the annealing temperature ('touchdown'; −2 °C per every five cycles) program. PCR amplification was started using the following settings: 94 °C/30 s (denaturing), 50 °C/30 s (base annealing temperature of first three cycles) and 72 °C/1 min (extension), and was continued until the base annealing temperature reached the final condition of 44 °C. Under the final conditions, the amplification was continued for 20 cycles. Additionally, the quality of the DNA isolated by both methods was evaluated by restriction analysis, for which 10 μg of DNA isolated by each method was incubated overnight with 10 U
To test if the modified method is applicable to other xylophagous insects, we isolated DNA from larvae of three additional cerambycid xylophagous beetles,
The modified CTAB-PVP method for DNA isolation seems to be suitable for PCR and restriction analyses. This method is rapid, simple and efficient for the isolation of DNA from xylophagous insects which possess high concentrations of plant compounds that can interfere with DNA extraction and analysis.

Evaluating Cloud Performance and Decision Making
If your business has made the leap into the cloud, then it is very likely that IT processes have become transparent and business productivity is improving. The whole idea behind the concept of cloud computing is to remove the backend maintenance and inconsistencies that may happen with even the best in house server systems. Users should have less functionality issues, as many that would formerly stem from any number of hardware or software related issues are mostly eliminated as cloud computing generally only requires a web access through a browser and a functional computer. Unless an organization purchased a subscription through an underdeveloped cloud service provider, business has the tools it needs to optimize processes. So now the question remains, is your cloud service being utilized to its fullest potential?
As of this point in time, no cloud is impervious to disaster. There are events that can cause serious problems to the cloud, for example, should certain hardware fail at the center hosting, it will take time to restore service. Though much of today's components are hot-swappable, a hard drive for example can take time to rebuild the data from back-ups or redundant array. On the service end, certain features may become inaccessible. This has happened with major service providers, like April of 2011 when Amazon Web Services had a disruption which affected much of the Eastern US. Amazon explained the error in detail here in an attempt to explain the re-mirroring issue the system their clusters use and why it failed.
In these instances, there is nothing that can be done by the end user. Just as web pages will, occasionally become unavailable for short periods of time, this may happen with a cloud service. It's much the same for businesses that have an in-house system – eventually, it will require routine maintenance.
For these systems, maintenance is handled by staff at the facility but that does not mean IT can be completely cut from a business. Workstations may need a hardware or software repair. Some organizations use custom applications developed in-house and the cloud service may require configuration from the business end, depending on the type of cloud being utilized. The IT department needs to remain but those porting to a public cloud will not require much hands-on support. This enables a business to reduce head count hence saving on labor.
Network administrators can take on a few more tasks when not preoccupied taking care of hardware. Admins traditionally had to monitor hardware for preventative measures as well as to properly configure job scheduling. Most cloud services will automate these processes on the back-end unless it is an IaaS where control over the infrastructure will be left in the hands of an internal IT department. This will allow IT to configure a monitoring utility to ensure the integrity of the system. For some businesses, workstations and mobile devices connecting to the cloud need to be properly configured to meet data privacy laws, so it will be necessary to assign roles to users and limit actions when using the cloud service.
If properly configured, the public cloud has potential for every business. Though the cloud is not perfect at this time, it's important to remember that nothing is flawless. Options should be explored to make sure the correct level of service is selected to meet the needs of an organization.

I have just completed my 2nd session of Fraxel Repair. Both were done at 70mj and 60%. Have any of you done multiple sessions of Fraxel Repair and saw better results from the 2nd procedure? I'm having Fraxel done acne scars and wrinkles.
Multiple Fraxel Repair Sessions for Better Results?
Doctor Answers 1
Repeating Fraxel Repair treatments will increase results
Acne scars respond to repetitive heating of the dermis with the Fraxel laser. I use both Fraxel restore and Fraxel repair lasers in treating acne scars and find the results are comparable as long as multiple treatments are performed. On average 4 to 5 Fraxel restore and 2 Fraxel repair treatments. The repair will give you better results with deeper lines but is equivalent to the restore for acne scars. The more treatments you have the more you will see. Treatment interval for the Fraxel restore is 1 month and for the repair 3 months.
Good luck!

North Texas Offers Whitehouse's Nate Brooks
The first offer arrived for one of Whitehouse's talented football players in the 2015 class.
Nate Brooks confirmed with ETSN.fm that he received an offer from North Texas. Whitehouse 2015 safety Justin Dunning tweeted the news before Brooks confirmed the offer.
Brooks started all of the 2012 season at cornerback for the Wildcats. He recorded 42 tackles while finishing third on the time with four interceptions and tying for first on the team with five pass breakups.
Brooks is the ninth player in the East Texas 2015 football class to receive a Division I FBS offer. Six of those nine could potentially play in the secondary in college.
The 6-foot, 150-pound Brooks will be 1 of 3 returning starters in Whitehouse's secondary. He joins Dunning, who holds five FBS offers, and 2014 cornerback Isaiah Burton in the Wildcats' defensive backfield. The only graduating secondary starter is safety Colby Campbell, a Lamar signee.
Along with the return of those three defensive backs, Whitehouse's back seven should be strong in 2013. Middle linebacker Reggie Long, who finished second to Campbell in tackles, 2014 linebacker/safety Chris Reese, and 2015 linebacker Dominique Hollie are all back for new head coach Adam Cook.

Bruno Mars
Locked Out Of Heaven (Atlantic)
Who has locked Bruno Mars out of heaven? If it's anyone other than the Big Man (or at a push, St Peter), they're gonna have their ass handed to them on a platter by Bruno's lawyers. Those lawyers will be paid from the receipts to this record: a brazen – but successful – welding of Dire Straits' Sultans Of Swing and Can't Stand Losing You by the Police. Yeah, it's manufactured, but it's got energy, a little funk and a gratuitous sexy "urgghh" in the middle. Amen, I say.
Yo La Tengo
Before We Run (Matador)
This song sounds like it's going to fall over. A woozy, part-soaring, part-menacing return from the Hoboken legends, it's concerned with both leaving and the reluctance to leave. All of this is propelled by a staggering rhythm that sounds like it's on the verge of packing up. It never does, though, and that's a lesson for all of us, especially those of us who are drums.
Die Young (RCA)
I do not know what the point of this record is. Most likely guess is that it was commissioned by a Chinese mortality consultancy with the aim of making western teens even more blasé about their infinitely short spell on earth than they already are. "Let's make the most of the night like we're gonna die young," warbles Ke$ha, but by this she means, simply, "let's go to the club and have a snog". Namely the same old primal activities that people have experienced forever without kidding themselves that, if the whole charabanc were to come to a halt tomorrow, they wouldn't be a little disappointed. For something trying so hard to sound alive, it's bizarrely bland. Life is short. Don't waste it listening to, or snogging, Ke$ha.
Plan B Feat Labrinth
Playing With Fire (Atlantic)
The post-apocalyptic car park which Plan B considers his domain has been beset by another crisis. A nice young kid was out minding his own business, trying to buy some weed, only to be told that the sole way he could procure said weed was if he were to first "smash the face in" of some weedy kid for no reason. Plan is not happy about this, and over some indignant fingerpicked guitar he skewers those responsible, namely "role models" and "something something David Cameron's Broken Britain". He then samples the sound of fire. Crisis over.
Five Days (4AD)
I like the fact that indie R&B is basically becoming R&B. After all, it was something of an insult to regular R&B singers to suggest they couldn't be a little sad or strung out, while it was limiting to the indie fraternity to insist that all their songs go without a tune. Inc are definitely on the indie side of the equation, but here in one chord change (it's in the refrain) they summon up the ghosts of Vandross and O'Neal and all that emotional delicacy that is straight R&B's stock in trade. One love, one R&B.

Mission statement
Our mission is to provide goods and services to underprivileged children,
teenagers or very young adults.
Year 2015 was another very productive year for our organization.
With the
help of local businesses and private donations, we had the
privilege of giving over 340 foster youths and four single
parent families a wonderful and memorial holiday season at
year's end.
With many fund raisers this year including two yard sales and a motorcycle poker run, we
enhanced the lives of a large number of needy children. A heartfelt
"Thank You" goes out to everyone who
contributed, whether that be in the form of funds, time or effort.
With the communities help to make it all possible, we look forward to meeting the
needs of more underprivileged children in 2016.
If you are not
able to help with a direct contribution, you can still help
by volunteering your services, donating items for
our yard sale, or by attending and supporting our
fundraising activities throughout the year. Check out
our more recent or projected fundraising activities by
clicking on the FUNDRAISERS button above.
More importantly, if you know or are aware of any needy child,
won't you take the time to please click on the REFERRAL
button above and tell us about it. Although most of
our referrals come from state or similar sanctioned
organizations, we will certainly get back to you and are
prepared to service any underprivileged child where the need
can be verified. We will only be limited in servicing
the need if it is not within our fiscal capacity.
Another enormous yard sale
will be held May 6, 7 & 8 at 70 Pruett Place.
"Friends" will be received on May 6th as early
For sale we will have furniture,
fishing equipment, antiques, glassware, rugs, bikes,
Christmas and holiday items, old books, purses,
jewelry and a great deal of miscellaneous items.
Great prices!
Won't you make a tax deductible donation to assist in our
efforts. You can do this below or click on the DONATE
menu button above.
