CAMP Annual Report: Page 6
Professor Egon Matijevc', Editor of New Book: Medical Applications of Colloids
Professor Egon Matijevic' , the Victor K. LaMer Chair of Colloid and Surface Science at Clarkson University, is Editor of the new book Medical Applications of Colloids published by Springer in 2008. In the Preface, he mentions that the important role of finely dispersed matter and surfaces in medicine is not always fully understood and appreciated. Matijevic' also states that fine particles (size range of several nanometers to several micrometers) have a tremendous effect on our lives because they can be beneficial or detrimental to our well-being. This volume provides insight into significant topics in colloid and surface science that relate to medical applications.
The book chapters and their authors are as follows.
"Colloids as Light Scattering and Emission Markers for Analysis of Blood" by Olavi Siiman
"Medical and Technological Application of Monodispersed Colloidal Silica Particles" by Herbert Giesche
"Pharmaceutical Applications of Finely Dispersed Systems" by H. William Bosch
"Transport, Deposition, and Removal of Fine Particles: Biomedical Applications"
by Goodarz Ahmadi and John B. McLaughlin (both of Clarkson University)"XPS Analysis of Biosystems and Biomaterials" by Michel J. Genet, Christine C. Dupont-Gillain, and Paul G. Rouxhet
Professor Matijevic', an internationally recognized colloid chemist, was recently named an Honorary Distinguished Academic Appointee to the medical staff of the Canton-Potsdam Hospital by its board of directors. This prestigious honor, a first of its kind for the hospital, was given for his ground-breaking research relating to medical applications. His ability to synthesize minute particles with precise sizes and composition has special relevance to the medical field, because it assists pharmaceutical manufacturers in developing drug formations that can be delivered to patients more quickly to relieve pain or the cause of ailment.
Clarkson University hosted a series of receptions throughout the country in 2007 to provide Matijevic's friends, colleagues and former students an opportunity to celebrate his 50 year milestone as a teacher, scientist and mentor.
Professor Matijevic' was born and educated in Croatia. He began his teaching career at Clarkson in 1957. In addition to numerous Honorary Ph.D.s and citations, he is the only individual to receive all three major awards of the American Chemical Society in his field of Colloid Chemistry. He is also the recipient of the Graham Award, the highest prize bestowed by the German Colloid Society, the oldest in the world.

Self Healing Materials
A team led by Professor Igor Sokolov is developing self-healing materials for a U.S. Army funded project. They are preparing special healing glass capsules (nanoporous silica capsules containing epoxy components) embedded in a polymer matrix. When this matrix is fractured, a crack propagates and ruptures the capsules. Healing glue leaks out into the crack, seals, and cures the crack. This repairs the crack, and to some extent recovers the mechanical integrity of the polymer. CAMP Professors John Moosbrugger and David Morrison are developing testing methods to reveal the recovery of the mechanical properties in self healing materials. In addition CAMP Professors Ratneshwar Jha, Cetin Cetinkaya, Goodarz Ahmadi, and Igor Sokolov are studying the mechanical properties of the self-healing materials to provide a fundamental knowledge of the mechanical behavior of undamaged and healed materials. A multi‑scale model will be used to predict the effects of healing fiber concentration, aspect ratio, and modulus on the mechanical properties of the composite material. The response of self‑healing composite structures to quasistatic and dynamic loads will be investigated. The modeling will determine stress/strain concentrations, failure mechanisms, stress wave propagation, and healing efficiency.
Self-Assembly of Stable Organic Monolayers in Ionic Liquids for Sensor Applications
Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of alkanethiols have a wide range of applications in chemical and electrochemical sensors. CAMP Professor Dipankar Roy is studying fabrication of these SAMs, as well as their electrochemical properties in room temperature ionic liquids (ILs). In the solution-based approach, typically these SAMs are formed on gold film substrates in ethanol or other similar (often prone to vaporize) solvents. The SAMs formed in ILs tend to exhibit higher structural integrity and stability than their counterparts formed in the low viscosity solvents. The high viscosity and the relatively large ions of ILs restrict the extent of diffusion limited solvent-incorporation (defect formation) in the SAMs formed in ILs. Furthermore, the electrochemical stability of these SAMs formed in ILs can also be substantially improved by using an IL (as opposed to aqueous) environment to support the surface electrochemistry for sensor operation. The considerably wider electrochemical windows of ILs compared to those of aqueous electrolytes provide this latter feature of sensor operation in IL media. Thus, incorporation of ILs in SAM-engineering can offer several potential advantages for sensor applications. Professor Roy's group is exploring these IL-SAM systems by combining the techniques of surface plasmon resonance and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. More information about this group's research can be found at:

Verizon BB TOUR (9630) problems with 535i
I am having the same problems that a couple of others have been having with the BB TOUR (Verizon). I also have a BB 8330 that works perfectly fine. I looked at the software installed on both and the 8330 appears to have version 4.3.x.x and the Tour has 4.7.x.x.
It is very annoying - almost unusable as the car will recognize the TOUR but upon pairing, assumes tha the TOUR is on and won't allow the radio/Sat/iPOD to work - it shuts down the speakers.... If I make a quick call then hang up, the radio et al comes back.
When I make a call and subsequently hang up, the display in the 535i shows that the phone is still on a call. I do get my entire address book in the display on the 535i, but it seems that connect and disconnect signals through Bluetooth aren't going across properly?
Anyone have any thoughts? I just got the Tour and love the phone, but the 8330 (World) isn't that far behind it in terms of features and quality - and it works on the 535i....
Are there different versions of Bluetooth that could cause this problem?

Building a new home is enough of a hassle. Don't compound your worries with the wrong construction loan.
We offer up to 6 months on an interest-only loan. If applicable, your home's appraisal will take into account the sweat equity you intend to contribute to the construction process. Once your home is complete, we'll convert your construction loan into a fixed or adjustable rate mortgage with regular monthly principal and interest payments. If you become worried about rising rates during the construction process, we can rate-lock your permanent mortgage up to 90 days prior to end of construction. Construction rates and closing costs are very competitive and interest begins to accrue on your loan only when draws or disbursements are made on your account.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 23/7/2014 (1099 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Flight crew on the province's Shock Trauma Air Rescue Society helicopter ambulance service won't be able to fly kids under 12 from hospital to hospital until they have the proper backup in place at Children's Hospital.
The recommendation is one seven made in a report released Wednesday by the province on allowing the helicopter emergency service back to full flights. The report and its recommendations are the work of the province's clinical oversight committee on STARS led by University of Manitoba dean of medicine Dr. Brian Postl.
"No pediatric inter-facility transfers are going to happen before that pediatric transport team is in place," Health Minister Erin Selby said.
A process is already in place for neonatal flights, and STARS is allowed to fly children to hospitals from emergency scenes, such as vehicle collisions.
STARS was temporarily suspended from flying all medical flights last Dec. 2 following the death of a woman after an inter-hospital flight in late November. It was the third serious case in a year involving the Alberta-based helicopter air-ambulance service. One included a case in May last year involving two-year-old Morgan Moar-Campbell, who was being flown to Winnipeg from Brandon on a STARS helicopter for tests following a seizure. The boy was in an induced coma and could not breathe on his own. When he landed in Winnipeg, it was discovered his breathing tube had become dislodged, depriving him of oxygen and severely damaging his brain. His case is the subject of a lawsuit.
On March 7, STARS was allowed to fly again by the province, but only in response to emergency scene calls. STARS was allowed to resume adult hospital-to-hospital flights July 2 when the enormity of this summer's flood threat was determined.
Postl said in the report there have been "serious issues in communication" between STARS and health department officials since STARS started flights in Manitoba about three years ago.
"This has existed for many reasons, but I note there is opportunity for improvement in the formal structure for communication," Postl said. "I would recommend an operations-liaison committee be established and they meet monthly or more frequently at the call of the chair. Agendas should be focused on information sharing and problem solving."
The panel recommended STARS pursue Canadian Medical Association accreditation and that it be integrated into the province's 911 emergency medical services system through Brandon's Medical Transportation Coordination Centre. The centre coordinates the dispatch of all rural and northern emergency medical services in the province.
As well, Manitoba Health is to complete the transfer of the STARS service purchase agreement to the Winnipeg Regional Health Authority, effective Aug. 1. This process has been underway for several months and is intended to give STARS medical crews experience in Winnipeg's emergency medical system.
STARS spokesman Cam Heke said STARS will comply with each of the recommendations.
"We strongly feel that by working with the medical community in Manitoba we can provide a world-class helicopter EMS service right here in Manitoba," Heke said.
The recommendations apply to only Manitoba and STARS operations.
STARS has been dispatched to 721 missions and has transported 486 patients since 2011.
The Manitoba government awarded STARS a 10-year contract, worth about $10 million per year, in 2013, a move criticized by the province's former auditor general, Carol Bellringer, last March for not following the province's public tendering principles and policies.
The not-for-profit STARS is also funded through corporate, community and individual donations.

Barristers hold the key to the success of alternative dispute resolution (ADR), NSW Supreme Court judge
Speaking at a Law Society of NSW panel discussion on Tuesday, Justice Bergin said the bar was a "pivotal part of the transition from being adversarial to being more sensible".
The discussion, on ADR and new federal laws that require parties to take "genuine steps" to resolve their disputes before going to court, included federal Attorney-General
While Justice Bergin said ADR was already an "entrenched alternative" in the NSW Supreme Court, Mr McClelland told the gathering there was still a tendency among some practitioners to exploit court processes such as discovery (the process of disclosing documents to the other side).
The bar was "increasingly coming on board with the ADR culture, but still has quite a way to go", he said.
Mr McClelland told The Australian Financial Review that while some barristers were "well and truly among it" in using ADR, take-up was generally higher among solicitors.
While arguing in court was a barrister's bread and butter, this was more a product of their nature than of self-interest, he said.
"I think they're trained warriors and I think they like appearing in court," he said, adding that the "pre-action protocols", enshrined in the new Civil Dispute Resolution Act, would hasten the development of an ADR culture in the profession.
The act was passed in April and is expected to take effect in August, with new Federal Court rules.
Mr Geary used Tuesday's discussion to suggest the new laws would be ideal for a pilot study to measure the effectiveness of ADR in courts.
Mr McClelland said this was a "good suggestion" and he hoped to put it in practice once the laws were up and running.
He also hoped the enactment of the federal laws would lead other states to follow suit.
NSW has similar laws but has excluded them from applying to Supreme Court civil disputes, pending commencement of the federal laws. Victoria introduced and then repealed its version this year.

Freehands Gloves
Another awesome set of gloves for iphone/ipod touch, just in time for the cooler months. These bad boys are available in leather or cloth. Both the pointer finger and thumb section flip back to allow you to use your hands with your phone. Best part: built in magnets keep the flipped back sections held back, so they wont interfere with texting/etc.
No, this is not a joke. It's merely a freakin' awesome sweater. A fun sky blue, with cartoon-like clouds.Added 9 Years Ago from Supermarket
I don't think it's dorky to have some of the more practical gloves around. They look completely normal, but they have small touchscreen sensitive dots on the finger tipsAdded 9 Years Ago from Dotsgloves
If you live in a place where gloves are necessary and worn by everyone, then having a pair that everyone else doesn't have becomes an important fashion statement. Rest assured, you probably wont see others wearing these.Added 9 Years Ago from Digitalgravel

Jessica Simpson Not Happy About Nick Lachey's Engagement
Seen here drunk off her ass wondering why no one will marry her – *burp* – Jessica Simpson is apparently not taking the news of Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo's engagement well, according to Popeater:
"Even though Jessica wants to be happy for Nick, this is a very difficult time for her," a friend of Simpson's tells me. "Nick was the love of her life then, man, and he was her first, so she will always have a very special place in her heart for him. She's deeply saddened."
Let me be the first to say, "Keep those chins up, Jessica." Sure, the thought of marriage sent Tony Romo screaming to his dollhouse, but you're with Eric Johnson now and that dude is broke as shit. If giant breasts and expensive gifts can't get a cash-strapped gold-digger down the aisle.. well, you're probably going to die alone. But for now, just keep propping those puppies up next to sports cars. Think positive! :D

This is my report on your Executive Limitation policy and is presented in accordance with your monitoring schedule. I certify the information contained in this report is true.
_______________________________ ________________________
Superintendent Date
The Superintendent shall not cause or allow financial planning for any fiscal year or the remaining part of any fiscal year to deviate materially from the board's Ends priorities, risk financial jeopardy, or fail to be derived from a multiyear plan.
Further, without limiting the scope of the foregoing by this enumeration, there will be no financial plans that:
Provision # 1: Risk incurring those situations or conditions described as unacceptable in the board policy "Financial Condition and Activities"
Interpretation: I interpret this to mean that the adopted budget that shall not cause or allow the development of financial jeopardy or material deviation of actual expenditures from board priorities established in Ends policies. Moreover, the adopted budget will provide for the following conditions:
Rationale: The rationale for this provision is clearly laid out in the conditions of Policy 2.3: Financial Condition and Activities.
Evidence: I certify the Audited Financial Statements and all budget information documents from July 1, 2011 to June 30, 2012 demonstrated compliance with these requirements. Additional evidences to support these requirements are reflected in Executive Limitations Policy 2.3: Financial Condition and Activities.
I report compliance.
Provision # 2: Omit credible projection of revenues and expenses, separation of capital and operational items, cash flow, and disclosure of planning assumptions
Interpretation: I interpret this to mean that the adopted budget must be based on reliable planning assumptions. Cash-flow must be appropriately managed for timely response to District needs and the integrity of capital and operational budgets must be maintained.
Rationale: The development of a budget must be based on explicit parameters, accurate revenue and expenditure projections, and directed toward the achievement of school district Ends. This provision specifically speaks to the importance of using long-term financial data combined with conservative revenue and expenditure projections. If time and expertise are not utilized to garner accurate predictors of revenues and expenditures, the likelihood of fiscal jeopardy is considerably increased (note: this includes maintaining awareness of political and legal developments in the field of education).
Evidence: The budget development process contains numerous systems to guarantee reliable revenue/expenditure projections and communicates these to the public. The following documents and procedures fulfill this requirement in annual cycles. Projected/actual dates are noted:
I report compliance.
Provision # 3: Provide less for board prerogatives during the year than is set forth in the Governance Investment Policy
Interpretation: I interpret this to mean that the approved budget will encompass Board directed prerogatives.
Rationale: The rationale for this interpretation is self-evident.
Evidence: In October and November of each year, the Board discusses its needs and informs the Superintendent of required resources. Within the written budget parameters, the Board informed the Superintendent of the following prerogatives that were included in adopted budgets:
I report compliance.
Provision # 4: Omit disclosure of anticipated impact(s) on proposed and adopted budgets.
Interpretation: I interpret this to mean that all anticipated impacts on proposed and adopted budgets will be fully disclosed to the Board, through monthly Superintendent reports and monthly meeting discussions, and that proposed budgets will reflect all anticipated impacts.
Rationale: There are always significant factors that must be identified in order to accurately predict anticipated revenues and expenditures. Moreover, a stringent monitoring system, both internal (operational) and external (Boards), must be implemented in order to ensure the fiscal integrity of the school district.
Evidence: I certify that all adopted budgets in 2011 included these anticipated impacts:
I report compliance.
Provision # 5: Omit to allow budgeting that is not in a summary format understandable to the Board and public and presented in a manner that allows the Board to understand the relationship between the budget and the Ends priorities for the year.
Interpretation: I interpret this to mean that the budget document for any fiscal year will be summarized for ease of understanding and will demonstrate support for the Boards' Ends.
Rationale: A prime responsibility of School Boards rests in the fiduciary arena. As such, transparency becomes a necessity of the budgetary process. In other words, the "Owners" of the school district must be able to easily read and understand the budget document. Additionally, detailed information must be made available, in a timely manner, upon request.
Evidence: Along with the 2012/2013 adopted annual budgets, the administration provided detailed supporting documents, including:
I report compliance
Policy Wording: The Superintendent shall not cause or allow financial planning for any fiscal year or the remaining part of any fiscal year to deviate materially from the board's Ends priorities, risk financial jeopardy, or fail to be derived from a multiyear plan.
Interpretation: I interpret "financial planning" to mean a Board adopted budget that is derived from:
I interpret "deviate materially" to mean funds shall not be directed away from the achievement of Boards Ends. I further interpret "financial Jeopardy" to mean any condition which would require the redirection of significant resources from their intended purposes due to an unseen, predictable budget factor.
Finally, I interpret compliance with the overall policy to mean that all five provisions are in compliance.
Rationale: Completing the fiscal year in the "black" does not fulfill the requirements of this policy. Rather, the Superintendent must take adequate actions to ensure a comprehensive budget plan is developed and followed. For example, if a budgetary factor was not considered accurately or ignored (say the budgeting of anticipated Federal grants), a revenue shortfall would be created. To compensate for the revenue shortfall, the Superintendent could reduce expenditures mid-year and end the fiscal year in budget. In this scenario, the fiscal year would look healthy, but the attainment of Board Ends would have, in all likelihood, been significantly jeopardized.
I report compliance.

By Lim Hwee Seng, Tax Partner at PwC Services LLP
This article was contributed and first published in The Business Times on 17 July 2012.
BOTH Singapore and Hong Kong have long been seen as two of the better locations in Asia for multinational corporations (MNCs) to set up regional holding companies. Competitive tax regimes, strategic geographical locations and free-market economies are just some of the attributes these two cities possess.
Between the two, Singapore has been the more attractive option. We have an estimated 69 comprehensive avoidance of double taxation agreements (DTAs) as compared to Hong Kong's 23. Singapore's comprehensive tax treaty network has played a key role in attracting MNCs to set up shop here. On top of this, we also have a wide range of tax incentives that may help lower business costs.
To close the gap with Singapore, Hong Kong has taken steps to expand its existing tax treaty network. One of these steps was the signing of a DTA with Indonesia on March 23, 2010. It was announced on March 2, 2012, that the Indonesian government had finally ratified the Hong Kong-Indonesia DTA (Hong Kong ratified it on June 22, 2010).
The earliest dates where this tax treaty will come into force are Jan 1, 2013, for Indonesia and April 1, 2013, for Hong Kong.
Indonesia is quickly becoming a key investment destination. It has an abundance of natural resources, a large and growing domestic market and a fast-improving investment climate. MNCs looking to move into the Indonesia market will be looking for a place to set up their regional holding companies.
Traditionally, Singapore has tended to emerge as the preferred choice due to its proximity and the benefits under the Singapore-Indonesia DTA.
However, with the ratification of the Hong Kong-Indonesia DTA, Hong Kong will become a promising option for investment into Indonesia, thanks to a couple of key features. The first is the withholding tax rate on dividends paid by Indonesian companies to Hong Kong companies. The 5 per cent tax rate is the lowest rate among all tax treaties signed by Indonesia. The corresponding withholding tax rate under the Singapore-Indonesia DTA is 10 per cent.
Hong Kong holding companies will therefore be able to repatriate funds more cheaply by way of dividend.
In Indonesia, there is a "capital gains" tax of 5 per cent on the gross consideration (even in the absence of a gain) when a foreigner sells shares in a private Indonesian company. The Hong Kong-Indonesia DTA provides for exemption from this tax in certain cases in Indonesia. Contrastingly, the Singapore-Indonesia DTA does not offer such protection.
Although these two key features appear to give Hong Kong a significant upper hand in attracting MNCs that are investing into Indonesia, it is advisable for MNCs to adopt a wait-and-see approach. The reason for this is that Indonesia's Directorate General of Taxation (DGT) had previously issued rules that prevent the abuse of treaties.
Foreign companies are now required to complete a form and make a series of declarations before they are allowed to enjoy the benefits under treaties. In particular, a foreign company is required to declare that the income earned from the Indonesian company must be subject to tax in the foreign company's home country.
As Hong Kong exempts all foreign-sourced income from tax, Hong Kong-resident holding companies are not technically able to make such a declaration. There is no clarity on the situation and obtaining treaty relief under this DTA may not therefore be as straightforward in reality as it seems.
Important difference
Comparatively, foreign-sourced income is taxable in Singapore, unless companies are able to satisfy certain conditions. This is an important difference.
Now, in the recent Budget 2012, it was announced that Singapore will provide greater upfront certainty on the tax treatment of gains on the disposal of shares in companies.
Should companies meet the conditions stated, they will be able to dispose of shares without having to worry about setting aside time and resources to convince the Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore why the gains should be considered "capital". Hong Kong's Internal Revenue Department does not provide such certainty.
Looking at the Hong Kong-Indonesia DTA and the proposed change in Singapore's Budget 2012, it does seem that MNCs may be able to obtain some savings through the lower dividend withholding tax rate and capital gains protection by using Hong Kong as a gateway.
However, owing to the DGT's strict requirements for tax treaty relief, the cost savings are not for certain. In addition, the lack of certainty on the taxation of disposal of shares in Hong Kong could deter investors.
The Hong Kong-Indonesia DTA shows that many cities are quickly narrowing the gap with Singapore. It is crucial that Singapore remains agile and continues to take steps to improve itself as an attractive destination for regional holding companies even though the certainty provided for in Budget 2012 already goes a long way in tilting the balance more in our favour.
Given Singapore's current advantages over Hong Kong, including a government that has proactively put in place policies to attract more foreign investors, we are optimistic that Singapore will continue to be one of the best locations in Asia to set up regional holding companies.

Scott Beauchamp doesn't matter.
He's a twice-AWOL serial liar with a pending mental health evaluation who can't write believable military fiction EVEN WHILE IN THE MILITARY. He's powerless, has been tried, found guilty and punished, and at this point, a distraction. We've been focusing on the wrong things.
What matters is the New Republic's advertisers. No, not their editors, their advertisers. [see below the fold for a list of same]
We know that TNR allowed all three of Scott Beauchamp's stories to be published without being competently fact-checked, if fact-checked at all.
We know that the editors of TNR, led by Franklin Foer, lied when they said that the stories had been competently fact-checked, we know they deceived their readers and misled at least one civilian expert in an attempt to create a whitewash of an investigation.
We know The New Republic attempted to stonewall their way through obvious, blatant, and grievous breaches of journalistic ethics. In so doing, they have attacked the service, integrity, and honor of an entire company of American soldiers serving in a combat zone to avoid taking responsibility for their own editorial and ethical failures.
Foer will win the current game we're playing because he can stonewall his way though it. It is obvious his bosses don't care as long as it doesn't cost them money.
So we change the game.
Below are a list of recent advertisers that have placed ads with either the print edition of The New Republic or the web site tnr.com.:
Alfred A. KnopfAllstateAmazon.comAmerican Gas StationAmerican Petroleum InstituteAstro Zeneca (current issue)Auto AllianceBearing PointBlue Cross Blue Shield Association (current issue)BP (current issue)Chevron (current issue)CNNFLAME (current issue)Federal ExpressThe Financial TimesFocus FeaturesFord Motor CompanyFreddie MacGMGrove AtlanticHBOHarvard University PressHistory ChannelHoover Institution (current issue)MetLifeMicrosoftMortage BankersNuclear Energy InstituteThe New SchoolNew York TimesNovartisPalgrave Macmillan (current issue) Simon & ShusterJohn Templeton Foundation (current issue)University of Chicago PressUniversity Press of Kansas (current issue)U.S. TelecomVisa (current issue)The Wall Street JournalWarner BrothersWarner Brothers Home VideoW.W. NortonWyeth LaboratoriesYale University Press (current issue)
I'd ask U.S. military veterans, military families, active duty personnel, and the vast majority of Americans who support our servicemen and women to call these companies, institutions and agencies to pull their advertising from TNR, effective immediately.
Advertising with The New Republic represents a tacit support of their on-going support of an obvious lie, a continuing, unapologetic assault on the reputation of an American Army unit presently deployed in combat.
Advertising in The New Republic sends a message that advertisers do not care about journalistic ethics, or what most would consider editorial fraud.
I would ask advertisers to pull all of their advertising from the print edition of The New Republic and tnr.com until the senior editors responsible for this debacle are disciplined, with those at the top resigning.
The New Republic doesn't have an obligation to support the troops, or support the war in Iraq. It does have an obligation to retract stories for which they can provide no support.
Canwest MediaWorks, the Canadian company that owns The New Republic, does not have an obligation to decide the editorial policies of The New Republic, but it does have an obligation to discipline all editors who have refused to act ethically, who have misled readers, and who have attacked the military for defending itself from proven falsehoods and gross exaggerations.
We cannot force The New Republic to behave honorably, but we can make their dishonesty come at a price.

New Year's trivia:
According to statistics from the National Insurance Crime Bureau, more vehicles are stolen on New Year's Day than on any other holiday throughout the year.
Why should you ring in the New Year with family and friends? It is thought that the first visitors you see after ringing in the New Year would bring you good or bad luck, depending on who you keep as friends and enemies. Keep your friends close and your enemies far, far away!
Food plays a big role in New Year's traditions. Eating black-eyed peas, ham or cabbage are thought to bring prosperity. However, stay away from bad luck foods like lobster, because they move backwards, and chicken, because they scratch in reverse. It is believed that eating these on New Year's day might cause a reversal of fortune.
In Italy, people wear red underwear on New Year's Day as a symbol of good luck for the upcoming year.
On New Year's Day Wear Red Underwear, Don't Eat 'Backwards' Food, Lock Your Car, and Keep Friends Close

SONNY Bill Williams will only play in the NRL next year if Quade Cooper is beside him, with the pair looking certain to be in the same team, whether it be league or union.
The Sunday Telegraph has learned Williams and Cooper will now come as a package deal, such is the desire of the two stars to play together.
While Williams has long been linked to the Roosters, he has never publicly said which club he is joining - nor has he signed any NRL contract.
Cooper, whose stunning attack on the ARU has signalled the end of his Wallabies career, has suddenly become an integral part of any deal Williams does sign for 2013.
Williams revealed this month that he was attempting to lure Cooper to the NRL next year, and he was obviously aware of the Wallabies five-eighth's issues with Australian rugby when he backed him to succeed in a code switch.
In an extraordinary outburst, Cooper has jeopardised a $2.25 million deal in Australian rugby by openly criticising the national team environment and lack of quality facilities.
In June, Cooper signed a deal to remain with Queensland for the next three years, and with the binding ARU top-up contract he will have earned an estimated $750,000 a year until 2015, when the next World Cup is in England.
But that, and his ambition to play against the British and Irish Lions next year, has virtually been washed down the drain after the ARU alluded to pulling the offer following Cooper's comments.
Cooper has had the offer in front of him for months.
Williams and Cooper have the same agent, Khoder Nasser, which makes it easy for the pair to be sold as a package.
There is no doubt a bidding war will now ensue to secure the services of the superstar pair, who have helped rugby viewership and attendances soar in the past two years. Williams is playing for Japanese side Panasonic Wild Knights, and his tenure expires in January. Cooper comes off his ARU contract on January 1.
It is understood if Williams and Cooper cannot be accommodated by an NRL club they will look to European rugby.
"I reckon (Cooper) would be a huge success; he has definitely got the skill-set to play the 13-man game," Williams said earlier this month. "The biggest difference is in rugby you are playing on the advantage line, whereas in league the defence is 10m back. Imagine what he could do with that extra space."Cooper's issues with the Wallabies seems irreparable.
The playmaker is close to Wallabies teammates James O'Connor, Kurtley Beale, Digby Ioane and Ben Tapuai.
This group has riled senior Wallabies players and officials, who believe they are disrespectful and afforded leniency.
Cooper is miffed that the defensive game plans from Wallabies coach Robbie Deans don't gel with his instinctive attacking style and that the national team trains at dilapidated venues such as Leichhardt Oval's small gymnasium.
Cooper, who undergoes knee surgery on Tuesday, told Fox Sports' The Rugby Club last Thursday he felt so strongly he would not have played for Australia if picked this week.
"Well, no, because the environment there is one I don't feel comfortable with, and if I don't feel comfortable and I don't feel I can give 100 per cent for my country and that yellow jersey, then that's a very big problem," Cooper said.
"For me to continue to improve as a player and as a person, you want to be in a good environment. I feel that environment is destroying me as a person and as a player, so that I can't do the best I can do to represent my country."

How did some states try to prevent African Americans from voting?
- print Print
- list Cite
1 Answer
There were many ways that this happened (I am assuming you are talking about the time after Reconstruction when blacks had the official right to vote but were still not allowed to do so). Some examples:
- Poll taxes -- the practice of charging people a tax to vote. Since blacks were poorer on average than whites, this affected them more.
- Literacy tests -- laws were passed requiring blacks to prove they could read in order to be able to vote. Many poor blacks were illiterate.
- Understanding tests -- these are like the literacy tests. But here blacks had to show that they understood passages that they were required to read. Both this and literacy tests could be made as hard as they wanted to by white supremacist election officials.
- White primaries -- in the South, only the Democratic Party could ever hope to win an election. The Democratic Parties of many Southern states made their primary elections white-only. They said this was legal because the Party was a private organization and could hold elections however it wanted.
These were the main ways of preventing blacks from voting.

A new UNICEF report suggests that children fleeing Syria's civil war are vulnerable to early marriage, violence and child labor according to Reuters [2].
Over one million children [3], some of them without friends or relatives have crossed into neighboring countries. Approximately 200,000 children are school age, but less than 80,000 are enrolled in school. UNICEF [4]says that adolescents aged 14 to 17 who drop out of school are at maximum risk.
Their homes are also not always the safest places.
"There is a high level of domestic violence among communities, definitely because of the war situation, but also because of the protracted displacement and the sense of frustration that it brings," Michele Servadei, UNICEF's deputy representative in Jordan.
An estimated 30,000 Syrian child refugees are working in Jordan. Many of the children work on farms often in hard labor, while others work in family bakeries or as mechanics.
UNICEF is providing $45 per month for families who agree to remove a Syrian child from work and return him to school, according to Servadei.
In 2012, 18 percent of the registered marriages of Syrians in Jordan involved under-18-year-olds, up from 12 percent a year before.
Children are also at risk of being recruited by rebels [5] looking for soldiers to fight President Bashar Al Assad's regime.

(WBIR) Two Knoxville night clubs are the latest businesses to shut down under the state's nuisance law.
District Attorney General Randy Nichols announced Thursday that KPD officers closed La Rumba Restaurant and Bar on Chambliss Avenue and Millennium Night Club and Bar on South Mohican Street because of increasingly violent behavior related to the clubs.
General Nichols filed the petitions for closure, which were approved by Judge Bob McGee. They outline the investigation, which found drug use, fighting, drunkenness, alcohol abuse, and extremely violent behavior connected to the two clubs.
Since April 2008, investigators said La Rumba has been the scene for 471 calls to 911. Millennium was the site of 107 calls for service since October 2011.
General Nichols called the businesses "havens of criminal activity and dangers to the surrounding community."
These closings are the 41st and 42nd closures by the DAG and KPD under the nuisance law, in their ongoing work to make neighborhoods safer.

Re: st: Too many macros, but I create 1!

Re: st: Too many macros, but I create 1!
Thu, 06 Dec 2012 10:08:21 -0600
James Sams <email@example.com> tried to create long macros -- about
400,000 characters long -- using a combination of Mata and Stata and
ran into difficulty.
James is using Stata MP/8 12.

I can help.
The current maximum length of macros can be obtained from c(macrolen):
. display c(macrolen)
I am running Stata/SE, but I would have seen the same result had I been
running Stata/IC or Stata/MP.
However, in Stata/SE and STata/MP, maxvar is setable, and the maximum
macro length is a function of maxvar.
For instance, if I were to type
. set maxvar 12116
. display c(macrolen)
Setting maxvar to 12116 would allow James to create macros containing
up to 400,028 characters.
For Stata/SE and Stata/SE, macrolen is given by the formula
macrolen = 33*maxvar + 200
For Stata/SE and Stata/MP, maxvar defaults to 5,000 and, using -set maxvar-,
you can set it to any number in the range 2,048 to 32,767:
macrolen = 33* 2,048 + 200 = 67,784 (minimum)
33* 5,000 + 200 = 165,200 (default)
33*32,767 + 200 = 1,081,511 (maximum)
The reason macrolen is linked to maxvr is that macros are commonly used
to hold Stata variable names, and thus need to be able to hold all the
variable names that could appear in the dataset. Variable names are
32 characters long, they will have space between them, and then some
extra was added.

Imagining Mary Dean: Representing another's life in text
Brien, Donna L. (2004) Imagining Mary Dean: Representing another's life in text. M/C: a journal of media and culture, 7.
|PDF (78kB)
Leon Edel expressed the central puzzle of writing biography as "every life takes its own form and a biographer must find the ideal and unique literary form that will express it" (qtd. in Novarr 165). My primary challenge in writing Poisoned: The Trials of Mary Dean – a biography in the form of a (fictionalised) first-person memoir purportedly written by the subject herself – was the location of a textual voice for Mary that, if not her own, could have credibly belonged to a woman of her time, place and circumstance.
2The 'Dean case' caused a sensation across Australia in the mid-1890s when George Dean was arrested for the attempted murder of his 20-year-old wife, Mary. George was a handsome Sydney ferry master who had played the romantic lead in a series of spectacular rescues, flinging himself into the harbour to save women passengers who had fallen overboard. When on trial for repeatedly poisoning his wife, his actions and motivations were not probed; instead, Mary's character and behaviour and, by extrapolation, those of the entire female sex, were examined and analysed. This approach climaxed in defence counsel claims that Mary poisoned herself to frame her husband, but George was found guilty and sentenced to hang, the mandatory punishment for attempted murder at that time.

"Absolutely Captivating!"
This book has changed my life. It has led me through a journey closer to my God. It is truely a wonderful book!
"This will change you"
This is not just for women, husband please discover some of the world changing factors on women and why we are so attack. How to come out of the cycle of not feeling like we're good enough or we are just too much.
This audio/book dramatically changed my view point. Audio was good for me because I had to get through the first few chapter, but chapter 6 had me captured and in tears.
I a Christian women who has been walking with God since I was 16, a soldier in the United States military and I never saw my brokensss until I listen to this audio.
I have since order all the bible study material because I feel this is a message every women and man needs to hear.
I did not know that I had fears and wounds that dictated how I presented myself until I realized what those wounds and fears were.
I didn't even know I was broken.

This book opened up my eyes to the woman God called me to be! All women should read this book!
"It's There"
i'm a husband that ready to better understand his wife and daughters. I Believe the book is a great resource for women. I have read wild at heart many times and has a great impact on my masculinity in my family.
"From a man's perspective"
The book Fathered by God was so good that I had to read Captivating to see God's perspective on women. It really opened my eyes to how beautiful A woman is and what her beauty is supposed to look like. Both this book, Captivating, and the men's book, Fathered by God, are worth a lifetime of study.
I was left with a wonderful feeling of love-that I was loved -by Jesus, and no matter what, He loves me. So much love, warmth, and healing radiates from this book. I am going to listen to it again to allow more of the words and wisdom to "permeate my being"! I am not meaning to sound like a "new age guru", but this is a really positive book to listen to -well worth the time and money invested!!
I loved listening to the personal experiences Stack shared.
They are both wonderful narrators, and bring a tremendous sense of realism and warmth!
I wanted to listen all at once, but do to time, I did take some breaks! I did listen to it all in one day, though, and will hopefully do the same again today!!!
"Finally, the truth made clear..."
As a baby boomer, I've seen the erosion of biblical truth about male and female throughout my life. My relationship with my wife was distant and defeating, though we put up a front of being a good Christian couple. She has passed away now, but should God ever bring another partner into my life, it will be based on the truths revealed in this book, and His Word.
"Amazing insights!"
I was blown away by this book. I had never considered why Eve was the target of Satan's attack in the Garden of Eden or why he continues to persecute women today and I found the authors' suggestions very insightful. I also appreciated the differences between men and women being highlighted and was reminded of other books that have covered this topic such as Bringing Up Boys by Dr. James Dobson. This book has made me want to go back and listen to Wild at Heart again and I have added every book by John Eldridge to my Wishlist on Audible.
"A blessing in disguise"
I'm so grateful to have read this book. It will forever change my faith, it grew me tremendously. I have a boyfriend that is renewing his faith, at the same time that I have found mine. We have 8 kids between us, ranging from 4yrs old up to 16yrs old. 4 girls and 4 boys. One question we've had continuously is how can we help them find Jesus, find this new love that we couldn't really explain....up until this book that is. We now have direction for our own relationship plus a direction to go in with our beloved babies. Thank you both so much!!!! May God continue to bless the both of you in your ministry! And I pray that I learn quickly how to be the woman I was meant to be in God's eyes, so that I can be the example that our 8 children need so desperately to see...

CHICAGO — Learning online might be a way of attending class in your pajamas. But for students like Maria Treto-French, it means listening to a lecture while watching your daughter's volleyball game.
"The hardest part was making sure I had Internet access," Treto-French said with a laugh about juggling working full time, earning her graduate degree at Northern Illinois University and hustling between after-school activities of her three children.
Treto-French is part of a growing number of students — 7.1 million, according to a January study by the Babson Survey Research Group — who snap open their devices and log on to learn. Babson also reported that about 34 percent, an all-time high, of higher education students take at least one course online.
Here is how most online courses work: Students connect to a website used by the school that allows them access to a variety of class materials, including but not limited to readings, lectures, group project plans and questions for their professor. Most classes are asynchronous — students aren't present or doing work at the exact same time — though techniques and schedules also vary from school to school. Synchronous programs also exist but can be more difficult for students with fluctuating schedules.
When Treto-French attended graduate classes at the School of Business Management, it was almost old hat to her.
In 2011, when Treto-French went back to school, she studied at the largest university in the U.S., the University of Phoenix. Treto-French sailed through in less than three years, getting her degree and a certification for businesspeople overseeing technology in schools — a move that resulted in a promotion.
Like many of the students of online courses, Treto-French said she feels she is achieving not just for herself, but to be an example.
"I didn't want my daughters to see their lives with limitations," she said.
Some roots of online learning might be in "distance learning," a concept that harks back to 1840, when the Englishman Isaac Pitman created a way for people to learn shorthand through the mail.
Moving forward through time, distance learning ran parallel to technology: As methods of communication evolved, so did the ability to educate huge numbers of people online.
Follow the fiber-optic cables to the present day, and learning online has exploded: The largest for-profit university in the U.S., the University of Phoenix, is exclusively online with more than 300,000 students worldwide.
Though there is some pushback about the challenges involved in learning online, huge swaths of people spread out across the world have been able to learn everything from business technology to advanced particle physics because of online courses.
This boom also has meant good news to students who hold online degrees.
The ubiquity of online programs has boosted the value of online diplomas. A Gallup poll released in April showed that 37 percent of Americans believe online degrees are as trustworthy as traditional degrees, up from 30 percent in 2011, the first year Gallup posed the question.
A study by the Pew Research Center showed that 51 percent of college presidents valued online learning equally to courses taken in a classroom.
The general public is more difficult to convince, though — just 29 percent in that same study said they believe online learning imparts the same kind of wisdom.
"Overall it has just opened up a lot of flexibility for people," said Scott Jaschik, editor and co-founder of InsideHigherEd.com. "One of the biggest-growing groups is students who are enrolled at a campus institution."
That means that even students paying for real-life face time with professors are opting for the online class model as well.
Jaschik said that especially for professors of MOOCS — Massive Open Online Courses, offered to many thousands of students at once — the classes can stretch a professor's resources and a university's campus services to their limit.
"This is a generation of students that expects an email (response)," he said. But that is good news for professors: as tenure-track positions disappear and universities face funding cutbacks, online positions can be ideal for professors teaching at universities across the country to add to their portfolio.
"I know a lot of adjuncts who are thrilled with online education — it can open up a lot of opportunities to them," Jaschik said.

TEL AVIV (Oct. 2)
Researchers at the Weizmann Institute of Science at Rehovot claim a breakthrough in the battle against AIDS, the killer disease. The new development involves the isolation and synthesization of a hormone linked with the immunological process.
Prof. Natan Trainin, a cancer researcher in the Institute's cellular biology department, has been working on cancer and immunology research for the past 20 years, dealing with a hormone known as THF (thymus humoral factor) found naturally in minute quantities in the thymus gland.
The hormone was synthesized some six months ago by Prof. Yigal Bornstein, who has been working with Trainin for the past seven years. Bornstein says that organic THF has been administered to some 100 cases of immunity deficiency in Israel since 1975, including two cases of AIDS (acquired immune deficiency syndrome), with generally positive results.
But he stressed that no controlled study has yet been made, owing to the insufficient number of potential patients available in Israel.
Bornstein says that in regard to the two AIDS cases studied in Israel, one, a 20-year-old male, had made a partial recovery of his immune defenses, the first such case known. This victim was in the early stages of AIDS, which he had acquired from blood received from abroad to treat his hemophilia. He was given the biological THF, not the synthetic kind, and has recovered sufficiently to be discharged from the Beilinson Hospital.
The second, older, patient returned to Israel from the U.S. where he had acquired AIDS, but was in the final stages of the disease. After treatment with the biological THF, his immune system improved slightly, but he died later of complications. Bornstein says that the youth was the first AIDS case stopped by external treatment.
