Global Vaccines in the News
Dr. Laura White's Dengue research cited in review article by NIAID
Dr. Robert Johnston featured in News & Observer article about the origins of Global Vaccines
Dr. Laura White's Dengue vaccine research cited in recent article published by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID)
July 10, 2012
The NIAID announced the publication of a Dengue review article entitled, "Dengue research opportunities in the Americas" in the Journal of Infectious Diseases (DOI: 10.1093/infdis/jis351) by NIAID scientists, including NIAID Director, Dr. Anthony Fauci. In this article, the authors provide an overview of the history of Dengue in the Americas, the current status of this disease in the Americas, how the virus propagates, and the current status of research into the development of diagnostic kits, treatments, and vaccines for dengue.
Within the dengue vaccine research section, the authors cite ongoing clinical evaluation of several live attenuated vaccines being developed by various vaccine companies, including Sanofi Pasteur, Inviragen, Merck/Hawaii Biotech, as well as the NIAID itself.
Additionally, the authors describe a handful of nonreplicating dengue vaccine candidates under preclinical development, with a specific mention of Dr. Laura White's Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus replicon vector-based dengue vaccine and its promising results as seen in monkeys.
Dr. Laura White joined Global Vaccines as its Director of Research in May 2011. This work was conducted while Dr. White was a faculty member at the Carolina Vaccine Institute, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. This work was supported by an R21 grant provided by the NIAID. The article cited by the NIAID publication is listed below.
- White, L. J., Parsons, M. M., Whitmore, A. C., Williams, B. M., et al., An immunogenic and protective alphavirus replicon particle-based dengue vaccine overcomes maternal antibody interference in weanling mice. J Virol 2007, 81, 10329-10339.
Global Vaccines' work to the serve poorest of the world and its founder, Dr. Robert Johnston, were featured prominently in Raleigh, North Carolina's "News & Observer"
April 2009
"Experiment in Business."
MORRISVILLE -- Robert Johnston encountered doubts and laughter when he started to look for a way to develop sophisticated vaccines that people in developing countries need desperately but cannot afford.
Seven years later, Global Vaccines, a nonprofit company founded by the microbiology professor and director of the Carolina Vaccine Institute at UNC-Chapel Hill, has 12 employees, a 4,000-square-foot lab, an annual budget of $2 million and several projects in preclinical development.

I am a lazy guy who doesn't like making his friends do boring stuff if I don't have to. Having sky wasn't really a priority for a long time because I didn't expect to get higher level, or participate in endgame events.
But I hit 75, and it's about time I get sky.
Starting next week, either 9AM-2PM EST or 4PM-10PM EST (depending on what is most convenient for all involved), I'm going to start doing sky missions.
I think so far the only thing I've done are the Norg CS, so this'll be right from the start.
One of my alts already has an Unlit Lantern, and I plan on farming up some more key items (Paintbrush and other Lanterns) this weekend before / after Dynamis.
I dual box 75RDM and 75PLD, so hopefully it won't be too painful to do the early stuff. But it's boring to do this, so if someone needs it also, it'd be nice to have company.
In before lolnoob doesn't have sky.
Also have a 75WAR/NIN from my LS offer her help.

The Mission of the Viles Arboretum is "to promote the knowledge and appreciation of Maine's trees and other flora for people of all ages by offering opportunities for education, recreation, and inspiration."
The Viles Arboretum
- Details
- Last Updated on Tuesday, 30 May 2017 13:15
- Written by Administrator
The grounds of the Viles Arboretum are open dawn to dusk, seven days a week. These include six miles of trails, all marked and signed, on 224 acres. Trail maps are available at the trailhead kiosk. Dogs are allowed on the trails, on a leash at all times. Pet owners must pick up after their dogs. Click her for directions to the Arboretum.
A good introductory trail is to Viles Pond, which takes one through the hosta garden, past the rock garden, and to Viles Pond, often alive with birds, dragonflies, and frogs croaking. Depending on how long one lingers to enjoy the sights, this one mile trail takes about 45 minutes.
The Visitor Center is open 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, Monday through Friday. The Gift Shop offers books, posters, bird feeders, and other items. Members receive a 10% discount on all purchases.
In 1981 the Maine Forest Service began development of the Arboretum. During that year, 120 trees were planted and construction of fences, bridges, trails, and a boardwalk began. In 1982, a private non-profit corporation was formed with a board of directors to manage the 224-acre preserve, called the Pine Tree State Arboretum, and in 1990, the Visitors Center was built, and an executive director was hired. In 1992, a 99- year lease was signed with the Department of Conservation, administered by the Bureau of Parks and Lands, and in 2010, the Arboretum was renamed the Viles Arboretum to honor William Payson Viles (d.1986) and Elsie Pike Viles (d.2013), who were instrumental in establishing the Arboretum and in providing guidance and financial support.
In June of 1991, the Arboretum was certified as a Demonstration Tree Farm, and in 1992 The Hosta Collection was brought to Maine from Massachusetts when the Arnold Arboretum sold the Case Estates in 1992. An education wing was built in 2003. The Arboretum is continuously adding to its collection of trees and plants, its educational activities, programs, events and its trail system.
Current activities of special note include: the "Shifting Gears Initiative", bringing art to the Arboretum as a way of introducing visitors to art through nature and nature through art; installation of interpretive panels for twenty of our botanical collections; and a whole new botanical labelling effort using the same protocol and labels as the Arnold Arboretum.
There are always new programs, field trips, events and celebrations being announced so be sure to check our calendar of events and our Facebook page.

From "Cooking To Beat The Clock" and "Low-Fat Cooking To Beat The Clock" by Sam Gugino
Steak Diane with Parslied Potatoes
For this recipe you will need:
16 very small new potatoes, about 11/4 pounds
To prepare this recipe:
While the hot water tap runs, halve the potatoes and put in a 2-quart saucepan. Barely cover them with hot tap water and cook, covered, over high heat, for 12 minutes or until easily pierced with a knife.
Meanwhile, put the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large heavy skillet over high heat. Season the steaks with salt and pepper. (If the butcher hasn't done so, pound the steaks between two sheets of aluminum foil or wax paper with the side of a cleaver or a meat pounder before seasoning.) Add the steaks to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes (depending on thickness), turning once halfway through, for medium rare.
While the steaks cook, put the cognac and Madeira in a small saucepan over low heat. Peel and chop the shallots. Chop the chives and the leaves from the parsley sprigs.
When the steaks are cooked on both sides, remove the skillet from the heat and add the warm liquor. Making sure not to lean over the skillet, ignite the liquor with a match, preferably a long fireplace-type. (The flames will shoot up briefly and die down rather quickly. Have a skillet cover ready just in case.)
When the flames subside, increase the heat to high, turn the steaks to coat both sides, then remove them to a cutting board. Add the stock and shallots to the skillet. Cook for 2 minutes, or until the sauce begins to reduce and lightly thicken. Reduce the heat and swirl in 1 tablespoon of the remaining butter.
While the sauce comes together, slice the steaks and arrange the slices on a platter. Spoon the sauce over them and sprinkle with the chives. Drain the cooked potatoes and toss with the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, the parsley, and salt and pepper to taste. Put the potatoes in a small serving bowl.

In The World But Not of It?
Voices and Experiences
of Conservative Christian Students in Public Schools
Joanne M. Marshall
While American schools are ostensibly religiously neutral, surveying both school history and current and past legal cases indicates that the line between religion and schooling is not at all clear.1 Students, teachers, parents, and community members often argue that schools are either too religious or not religious enough.
Separatism – the notion of "being in the world but not of it" – has a long tradition within conservative Christian denominations.2 Parents have had to decide whether to separate themselves from those who do not share their beliefs so that they can maintain the strength of those beliefs, or whether to engage the "other" in order to share those beliefs. Many Christian institutions of the early twentieth century were founded as a result of separatism, and today conservative Christians remain strong proponents of home schooling.3
Glenn has written that for religiously devout students, who take "their faith with them into every significant aspect of their lives…the religious 'neutrality' of the school" may be experienced "as an aggression."4 Previous research suggests the value of considering the relationship between conservative Christianity and public schooling in terms of how these students experience their schools. Darnell and Sherkat5 found that conservative Christian belief was negatively related to youth's educational aspirations, and other researchers have linked conservative Christian denominational adherence to lower adult educational attainment.6 While religious involvement seems to be related positively to youth behaviors ranging from time spent on homework7 to safer driving,8 the relationship between conservative Christian religion and schooling seems to be less positive.9
Given these factors as well as the prevalence of the conservative Christian youth population – by some accounts, more than 26% of American youth,10 it seems important to understand what the experience of these students in public schools has been. This study, therefore, asks, What has been the experience of conservative Christian students in public schools?

Cuomo Seeks $2.9 Billion Loan for New York's Tappan Zee Bridge
New York Governor Andrew Cuomo is asking for a federal loan of as much as $2.9 billion to build a new Tappan Zee Bridge across the Hudson River.
That adds about $900 million to a similar request made last year that wasn't approved, according to the loan application. New York was able to increase the amount under new rules set by a transportation bill Congress approved in June that allows applicants to ask for as much as 49 percent of a project's cost, rather than one-third. The state also plans to issue from $2.3 billion to $2.7 billion in bonds backed by bridge tolls.
The $2.9 billion loan total is the high end of the request, using a $5.9 billion cost estimate. The final cost will be determined in October, when a winning construction bid is selected, according to the application, which is dated Sept. 5. The request may drop to $2.4 billion, the state said.
"Given the importance of the bridge to the economy of the region, we are asking for the maximum we can possibly receive with the hope that we will get the most support possible," Tom Madison, executive director of the New York Thruway Authority, said in a statement. The authority is building the bridge, which is part of the Thruway system.
Regardless of the size of the loan, "we remain confident that the financial plan for the project will ensure that the new bridge is completed in a timely manner and without creating an excessive burden on toll payers," Madison said.
The transportation bill allows the Federal Highway Administration to issue $17 billion in loans.
Negative Outlook
Getting the loan would be a victory for Cuomo, a 54-year- old Democrat who has made building a new 3.1-mile (5-kilometer) Tappan Zee a priority. A Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act loan would reduce the amount of toll-backed bonds the Thruway Authority would have to issue. Standard & Poor's and Moody's Investors Service lowered the authority's credit outlook to negative in June.
Cuomo has said construction will be paid for mostly by toll-backed bonds, though he's asked the Thruway Authority to to find other funding sources in an effort to prevent cash tolls from almost tripling to $14 from $5. The toll estimate was based on the bridge costing $5.2 billion. The three bids on the project are lower than that, said Brian Conybeare, a special adviser to Cuomo.
'Security Blanket'
The state wants to structure the loan so that bondholders would have priority for repayment in a default.
"It's a $3 billion security blanket for their bondholders," said Steve Steckler, chairman of Infrastructure Management Group Inc. The Bethesda, Maryland-based firm advises the U.S. Transportation Department, he said.
The 56-year-old Tappan Zee, about 20 miles north of Manhattan, carries 138,000 vehicles each day between Westchester and Rockland counties, 40 percent more than its design intended. It's among 14 projects President Barack Obama is speeding through the federal approval process.
Before the new transportation bill, the federal government considered project innovation and importance to regional transportation needs when granting loans, said Joung Lee, the associate director of finance and business development at the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials. The Washington-based association serves as a liaison between state transportation departments and the federal government.
"It's now based on creditworthiness," he said. "It would make it challenging if your credit profile gets too risky compared to other applications received, of which it sounds like there'll be a good number."

Just a question about iOS live video streaming.
If I had four live videos streaming onto a iPad app at the same time, can I have audio playing on one video with the other containing no audio track? I realise you can't mute the live audio track in iOS so I'm wondering if pulling no audio tracks is possible.
I know this would be possible with VOD but not sure with live video.
I'm hoping this can be achieved without third party software.

New Active View Camera Produces Warnings for Moving Objects in the Vehicle's Path
TORRANCE, Calif., Jan. 6, 2011 – To help drivers negotiate tricky situations, Alpine Electronics of America, Inc. brings to market several new Driver Assist products. The new HCE-C300R Active View Rear Camera System lets consumers choose from multiple views and provides visible and audible alerts when motion is detected. The HCE-C115 and HCE-117D rear view cameras feature wide viewing angles and great visibility in various lighting conditions.
The HCE-C300R Active View Rear Camera System recognizes stationary and moving objects behind the vehicle. Using an Alpine in-dash screen or any in-dash video unit that has an RCA rear camera input, this add-on camera system identifies objects that pose a potential danger when the vehicle is backing up. Red bars form brackets around the object on the screen as a visible indicator. When an object is detected, an audible beeping alert also activates. Rather than scanning just one vantage point behind the vehicle, the HCE-C300R lets users toggle between views depending on the situation. Viewing options include Panorama (a wider viewing angle), Rear (a normal view behind the vehicle), Ground (for showing how close objects are to the rear of the vehicle), and Corner (for showing the rear corners of the vehicle with a split screen view.)
Providing great visibility in day or night, the HCE-C117D and HCE-C115 rear camera systems incorporate a 1.5 LUX camera with a 128-degree horizontal viewing angle. Both models provide a clear overview of what's behind the vehicle. The HCE-C117D Direct Rear Camera System is designed specifically for Alpine's INA-W910 or INA-W900BT audio/video/navigation (AVN) system (sold separately). It connects directly to the back of either AVN system, so no additional wiring is required. The HCE-C115 Universal Rear Camera System works with any in-dash video unit with an RCA rear camera input.
Also available is the HCE-C200R Multi-View Rear Camera System which can be used in conjunction with the HCE-C200F Multi-View Front Camera System to provide views behind and in front of the vehicle. The HCE-C200R offers Normal, Rear, Wide Rear, Ground Rear and Split Rear views, which are made possible with a source/view switcher and a camera image processing module. The HCE-C200F Multi-View Front Camera System (must be used with the HCE-C200R) supplies various front views for the driver. Viewing modes consist of objects directly in Front, Front Ground (to show how close objects are to the vehicle's front) and Split Front (to show the front corners of the vehicle on a split screen). Using both systems together is particularly handy when parallel parking or pulling up to an intersection where visibility is limited.
All four rear view camera systems are compatible with the KTX-C10LP License Plate Frame Mounting Kit, made exclusively for Alpine rear view camera systems. It offers simple installation and easy camera placement, including the ability to tilt the camera up to 45 degrees for optimal positioning. The die-cast aluminum frame has a rust-resistant coating and built-in LED lights to illuminate the license plate in applications where the original license plate light bulb may be blocked by the camera.
"Rear view cameras are gaining in popularity, especially with the recent government proposal that the use of such systems become mandatory in vehicles in the future," said Steve Crawford, vice president and general manager, aftermarket business unit, Alpine Electronics of America, Inc. "We are providing consumers with options for adding camera systems to their existing vehicles."

Jay Leno's Final Episode of "The Tonight Show" Rakes in Massive Ratings
Bidding his heartfelt farewell to friends and coworkers was a fantastic way for the iconic Jay Leno to close his final episode of The Tonight Show with Jay Leno", and his ratings will prove it!
Topping the charts at a towering 14.6 million viewers, Jay's final run at the helm of "The Tonight Show" received its greatest numbers in viewership since the conclusion of "Seinfeld" in May of 1998.
Bested only by the biggest events in television history, Leno's farewell is the fourth largest episode telecast, beaten by the episode following the finale of "Cheers" in May of 1993, with 22.4 million viewers, Jay's taking over of "The Tonight Show" in 1992, with 16.1 million viewers, and the episode following the finale of "Seinfeld" in May 1998 with 15 million watchers.
The 63-year-old's final hosting of the familiar talk show featured an entourage of stars, including Kim Kardashian, Oprah Winfrey, Jim Parsons, Jack Black, Carol Barnett and Sheryl Crow, showcasing funny man Billy Crystal, who was Jay's first guest, and his very last.

Yara Arts Group has been working with traditional artists from Eastern Europe, Central Asia and Siberia since 1990. For Midwinter Night they team up with Koliadnyky--a traditional music group from the Carpathian mountains--and Toronto's Balkan-punk Lemon Bucket Orkestra to create a Christmastime Ukranian pageant.
Well, the musical instruments and customs of these residents of remote mountain areas probably pre-date Christianity, but have been adapted to make it a colorful holiday. You will see songs about the creation of the stars, a dance battle between old babushkas and the goat who is believed to make the crops grow, and fabulous solos on the bandura (an astonishing folk instrument with up to 68 strings), duda (goat-skin bagpipes), tsymbaly (hammered dulcimer), and trembita (mountain horn made from a lightning-stuck pine tree).
The Hutsul people live in the highlands of Southern Ukraine and the Maramures and Bukovina regions of Northern Romania. They wear colorful embroidered clothing (here credited to Keiko Obremski and Mykola Zelenchuk) and play the fiddle with a unique tuning. Virlana Tkacz and the other dedicated people from Yara Arts Group have assembled age-old artistry from the region (suppressed during Soviet times) which was written down by Ivan Zelenchuk, father of one of the performers in this show. There is so much amazing material presented here, starting with old winter songs (published 1693) which must be sung to insure the coming of the harvest. Next comes the enactment of a Ukranian nativity puppet play from 1774. The conclusion has goat songs--where the goat goes, the grain grows--backed up by the high-energy Lemon Bucket Orkestra under the direction of Mark Marczyk.
I found myself pulled onstage to dance in the finale, which is good because I'd been wishing for an excuse to dance for most of the show. While the ensemble sings, they kindly provide English explanations of what is going on. Projections by Mikhail Shraga and Volodymyr Klyuzko add yet another spiritual dimension to the spectacle. I look forward to the next offering from Yara Arts Group, which promises to innovatively blend old and new.

(CNS) - Beset by scandal, impeachment, accusations of an "enemies list" and abuse of power, another parallel between Presidents Bill Clinton and Richard Nixon is surfacing. It centers on the question of whether Clinton will be permitted to ever practice law again, with legal experts interviewed by CNSNews.com proposing a number of options and cold realities facing Clinton.
Federal Judge Susan Weber Wright Thursday imposed sanctions against Clinton in excess of $90,000 for expenses incurred by Paula Jones's lawyers. The sanctions came after Wright found Clinton in contempt of court for having lied under oath in Jones's sexual harassment lawsuit against the president.
Aside from the court's ruling and the financial sanctions, the question of Clinton's membership in the Arkansas Bar Association has been referred to a panel of the Arkansas State Supreme Court, which will decide whether Clinton violated his professional ethics and should be disbarred for doing so.
Historically speaking, Clinton is confronted with the potential for an investigation similar to the one Nixon faced after he resigned from office in the wake of the Watergate scandal a quarter century ago. Nixon was licensed to practice law in California and New York at the time.
After leaving the White House, Nixon voluntarily surrendered his license to practice law in California without any obstacles. But in New York, he could surrender his law license only if he answered questions of wrongdoing connected with the Watergate affair. Nixon never responded to the questions and was subsequently disbarred in New York.
"To the day (Nixon) died, that was one of the things he regretted most," said Matt Glavin, president of the Southeastern Legal Foundation, an Atlanta-based civil rights law firm that has filed a complaint against Clinton in Arkansas asking that the president be disbarred.
It's not known whether Clinton will follow the same course as Nixon, but Glavin predicted that Clinton will voluntarily surrender his license when the Arkansas Supreme Court ethics panel launches its investigation of the president's conduct. "I don't think (Clinton) wants another investigation," Glavin told CNSNews.com. But a large difference between the two scandal plagued presidents is that Clinton remains in office, whereas Nixon resigned, the only president ever to do so. Cornell University Law School Professor Charles Wolfram said Nixon's career as a lawyer and a politician was so shattered by his resignation that he made no effort to defend his actions before the New York Bar.
Among those enveloped by the Watergate scandal were some 28 lawyers, Wolfram recalled, with many of them resigning their membership to the bar. Wolfram told CNSNews.com that the post-Watergate era crystallized the question of whether an ethics panel should drop any potential charges and simply accept a lawyer's resignation from the bar with no questions asked.
Regardless of the scope of the Arkansas State Supreme Court action, it would be difficult to ignore Clinton's dishonesty under oath. Wake Forest University Law School Professor David A. Logan said that in recent years, state bar associations in general have become more vigilant in monitoring the behavior of the lawyers licensed in their jurisdictions.
"Certainly the more visibility that the matter has, the harder it is for the state bar to look the other way," Logan told CNSNews.com, suggesting that lawyers in Arkansas may find it harder to overlook Clinton's actions.
"No matter who you are, no matter who you're dealing with, no matter how private you think the conduct, you still are subject, at least in theory, to be held to the same standards established by the state bar," Logan said. He illustrated the point by noting a case in South Carolina, in which a lawyer was disbarred for allegedly stealing her daughter's Girl Scout cookie money.
But there could also be an option open to Clinton that falls somewhere between resigning his license to practice law and outright disbarment, according to Vanderbilt University Law School Professor Emeritus Harold Levinson. "Sometimes, discipline proceedings are handled by plea bargain," Levinson told CNSNews.com. He said it could be possible for Clinton to "agree(ing) to plead guilty," and possibly receive "a lesser punishment."
While the issue of Clinton's possible disbarment or resignation from the bar may become a footnote in history, one observer said he doesn't believe such action would have any practical impact.
The SLF's Glavin said he believes it is unlikely that Clinton would practice law after leaving office, making his disbarment practically moot. But he also said that settling the issue would have what he called "a symbolic impact."
"No matter who you are, even if you're the President of the United States, you can not lie under oath," said Glavin.

Gavin Floyd was a potential bust in 2009 due to ratios that didn't match his numbers through last season. He has regressed, but not nearly to his FIP or xFIP. John Danks had also beaten is FIP and xFIP, but with a strong K/BB and average groundball rates he seemed to be the better choice in 2009. Looking at the numbers they have been almost the same.
IP ERA W K K/9 K/BB HR/F BABIP LOB% xFIP Gavin Floyd 157.7 3.94 10 134 7.65 2.53 9.60% 0.295 69.10% 3.83 John Danks 141 3.96 10 116 7.40 2.27 9.80% 0.295 73.20% 4.42
Gavin Floyd
Floyd's average performance in 2008 was a bit deceiving. He has always been a much better pitcher against right handed hitters. His career K/BB against right handers is 2.49 and in 2008 it went up to 3.23. This looked like a great step forward, but his numbers against left handers was 1.39. Putting this togethor made him a solid bet in games against teams loaded with right handers, but not left-handed batters.
In 2009 Floyd has seemed to find a balance. His K/BB is now at 2.59 for right handers and 2.48 versus left handers. He seems to have added a bit more off speed pitches this year and his contact rate against on pitches out of the zone have dropped.
His skills have seemed to find a level around 2.50-3.00 and he should maintain the skills for an ERA around 4.00 going forward. His strikeout rate is fair so he adds a solid amount of strikeouts as well.
John Danks

After this season we will have to look back and wonder who the real John Danks is. In 2008 Danks took a big step forward. With a solid K/BB and an improving groundball rate, he looked like a great bet to meet or beat his 2008 numbers. As a lefty he should dominate left handers more than Floyd, but over his career he has fared similar to Floyd. His K/BB against right handed batters is at 2.50 while at 2.06 versus left handers. This year they have both been around 2.27 making him average against both.
Looking at this year his control has not fared as well and his BB/9 has returned to 2007 levels at 3.26 making his solid K/BB drop to 2.27. He is having trouble getting swings on his pitches out of the zone this year. Last year 27.9 percent of his pitches out of the zone were swung at, but this year he regressed to 22.3 percent.
His xFIP shows this year he has been fairly lucky and could regress even more this year. He also has not shown the ability to maintain a BB/9 as low as in 2008 at 2.63 since Double-A. He does also have a solid strikeout rate that adds value, but his walks are borderline for his skills. He does have some track record in the minors for higher strikeout rates, but eight would likely be his limit. He seems to be one of the pitcher who has failed to dominate left handers, but managers have not learned to keep their left handers in the lineup.
Both pitchers are still young and having less than 550 innings they are still establishing their skills in the majors. They also have to contend with the inflated home runs pitching in US Cellular and with average groundball rates. These two pitchers are very much clones statistically and hold value as late round picks to fill your pitching staff.
Floyd still gets some flak for his poor component ERAs in 2008 and might continue to fall later in drafts than Danks. I would expect him to be a better value based on draft selection, but Danks would be the player more expected to develop better skills if either of them does.

In the 1960s, the rock band The Kinks sang, "I'm a lover, not a fighter."
Now, one industry analyst is suggesting the nation's telecom carriers would benefit from showing some love toward Google Inc. instead of fighting over issues such as net neutrality, white space spectrum usage and selling software-as-a-service over carrier networks.
If the carriers don't accommodate and partner in some areas with Google, they stand to lose, said Alex Winogradoff, a Gartner Inc. analyst who wrote a report on ways that Google could influence the future of telecom.
The coming battles could be large and industry-altering, but they are avoidable, said Winogradoff in an interview Thursday.
"For Google, it's all about access," Winogradoff said. "Google is not interested in competing as much as loosening the ties that bind. They want to be the store and source for all the world's information, as in all roads lead through Google ... Everybody gets sucked into its maelstrom."
If Google gives away free applications or capabilities that carriers have tried to charge for, that "destroys the carrier business model and disrupts the ecosystem ... that's Google's game," Winogradoff said.
The carriers, including AT&T Inc., Verizon Communications Inc., Sprint Nextel Inc., and their wireless units, need to "selectively partner with Google rather than try to compete," Winogradoff added.
"The issue is ... to what degree Google destroys [the carriers'] business case and business model, Winogradoff said. "It's more in the new service categories [such as entertainment, SaaS and cloud computing] where the carriers' future growth expectations may be severely impacted if they don't find a solution in partnering with Google."
None of the major carriers nor Google could be reached immediately for comment on this story.
Jack Gold, an analyst at J. Gold Associates in Northboro, Mass., said he was not so sure that partnerships between carriers and Google are the solution. But, he said, the telecommunications world is still far from open, despite some steps carriers have made toward openness.
"Carriers have so far kept tight reins on network usage," Gold said. "Carriers can still choose what applications appear on a wireless phone that you buy. They can unprovision a phone's browser, for example. To date, carriers have wielded tremendous influence on what you do with your phone."
Winogradoff said Google's influence on the future of telecommunications is enormous, but Gold note that many other companies, such as Microsoft Corp., will also be challenging carrier controls.
Google has increased its influence in the past two years in several ways, Winogradoff noted. Google has:
Pressured the Federal Communications Commission to set aside the C Block of 700 MHz spectrum for open access to applications and devices.
Led efforts to create the Open Handset Alliance and the Android mobile device platform that includes a new operating system, middleware and key applications.
Helped lead the network neutrality debate , urging Congress to codify the FCC's neutrality principles that encourage broadband deployment and promote the open and interconnected nature of the public Internet. Google backs laws to ensure the public Internet remains free of content blocking and potential discrimination and supports assurances that customers and Web customers on private portions of the Internet pay no more for service guarantees.
Invested heavily in static and dynamic location information as a means of taking advantage of advertising for location-aware applications. Google also wants to bypass device manufacturers and carriers as the gatekeepers of location data, Winogradoff said.
Promoted white space spectrum usage in the 800 MHz block with Microsoft, Hewlett Packard Co., Dell and others. The spectrum is likely to be released as an open spectrum in 2010, ensuring more options for Google services, Winogradoff said.
Engaged businesses to use Google's online applications and cloud computing infrastructure. Winogradoff said Google will develop a presence with small and mid-sized businesses at first, then migrate to larger companies, which could go to Google for back-office computing needs through a SaaS model.
Google is not doing all these things to compete directly with carriers or content developers but because Google "finds their business process to be an impediment to innovation and change," Winogradoff added.
Google's actions will have their biggest impact on carriers in the new service categories of cloud computing and entertainment content, and will hurt carrier revenues in traditional communications services (such as simple connectivity) by only 1% to 3%, Winogradoff said.
Gold, however, predicted that carriers will become more open and might not necessarily partner with Google. "Verizon is starting to read the handwriting on the wall, but it remains to be seen how far and fast the carriers move toward openness," Gold said. "Google does have a lot of thrust and weight in this debate, but they are not the only guys pushing."
As one example, Gold said Cox Communications Inc. said in October it would build its own cellular network, and "they could make it wide open."
For the next two years, Gold said, the big question is "what's openness going to mean?"
This story, "Carriers Urged to Team with Google for Telecom" was originally published by Computerworld.

This summer, archaeologists are welcoming tourists to explore an ancient British hillfort full of prehistoric artifacts, as the researchers wrap up an excavation at the site. The fort, called Burrough Hill, was carved into the side of a 690-foot (210 meters) mound in the modern-day English county of Leicestershire during the Iron Age, around 500 BCE, and was used until the third or fourth century CE of the Roman period.
A five-year excavation of the site yielded bones, jewelry, pottery and even game pieces. Archaeologists will open the hillfort to visitors on June 29, hosting guided tours that allow people to touch some of the artifacts, and offering Iron Age combat lessons before the dig comes to a close at the end of the summer. Last year, the team discovered a collection of stone tools and pottery that dates back to 2800 BCE. In the final stage of the excavation, archaeologists will investigate what they believe could be a second entrance into the fort.
"We have been surprised by the quantity and quality of the information we have uncovered," John Thomas, co-director of the excavation and archaeologist at the University of Leicester, in England, said in a statement. "It has really painted a new picture of life at Burrough Hill and helped to fit the hillfort into a wider view of Iron Age life across the county that we have steadily developed through other excavations over several decades."
The whole fort system discovered at Borough Hill spans 523,000 square feet (48,600 square meters) and includes several ramparts that stand 10 feet (3 m) tall. After the Iron Age, the fort was abandoned as a defense post and then used as a farmstead. Later, it hosted a large medieval festival. The team of archaeologists hopes the discovery of artifacts, such as pottery and quern stones used for grinding corn, will shed light on the lives of humans living in the Iron Age and help historians better understand the transition from the Iron Age into the Roman period.

A scientific advisory panel for the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) gave its opinion on dissolvable tobacco products, via a report posted online prior to the Friday deadline required by law that gives the FDA the authority to regulate the industry.
The Tobacco Products Scientific Advisory Committee said that while dissolvable tobacco products had lower health risks when compared against smoking cigarettes, it also had the potential to increase the number of people who use tobacco.
These products are reportedly being eyed by tobacco companies as a possible answer to declining cigarette use due to tax hikes, increasing health concerns, smoking bans, and social stigma.
It is among the alternative tobacco products that companies are looking at for future sales growth. These products also include cigars, snuff, and chewing tobacco.
Dissolvable tobacco is described as finely-milled tobacco that is pressed into shapes, like tablets, that dissolve slowly in a user's mouth. R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co. is said to be test-marketing dissolvable tablets, strips, and a toothpick shape. These products carry the brands Camel Orbs, Camel Strips, and Camel Sticks, respectively, and are available in mint as well as other flavors. The orbs can last for 15 minutes. The strips, on the other hand, can dissolve in five minutes or less, while the sticks can last for 15 to 20 minutes.
Other products that are being marketed as well by other tobacco companies include wooden sticks coated with finely-milled tobacco under Phillip Morris USA's Marlboro brand (still in the test-marketing phase), and tobacco lozenges in wintergreen, coffee, and tobacco flavors, from Star Scientific Inc.

Josh at the Creamery has recently joined the iphone set, and quickly found out about instagram, the new rage in sharing iphone pics. Combine that with hours spent around gorgeous cakes, cookies and ice cream sundaes, and I'm pretty sure we'll be seeing a LOT of pictures to drool over coming down the line! (He's got a good little library going on the Bi-Rite Creamery facebook page, which I recommend you "like" today.)
For now, I give you his take on our White Chocolate Cheesecake (it has a chocolate crust and a crown of raspberries) snapped right before they wheeled it over to the Market for sale. There are a handful of these (sized to serve 4-6) left for any of you who are reading this before you head home from work and need to grab the perfect finish to your Valentine's dinner.
If you want to see the other gorgeous Creamery desserts for sale at the Market (Double Chocolate Tartlettes brushed with gold, Vanilla & Chocolate Mini Valentine's Cupcakes, or the Chocolate Silk Pie with Malted Whipped Cream, to name a few) I recommend you get to the Market to see them in person–Josh hasn't gotten those on film yet, a man's gotta make a living too!

The Occasion: A Baptism, a Bar Mitzvah, or Some Other Religious Ceremony
Old etiquette: Trot out the Sunday finery. Florals welcome, hats and gloves preferred!
New etiquette: Honor the occasion in attire that is tasteful, not stuffy.
What to wear: For starters, "choose an outfit that's appropriate in a religious facility―not too low-cut or clingy," says etiquette authority Lizzie Post. (If you've never been to a particular house of worship, it's a good idea to double-check its conventions.) Just as important is steering clear of anything overly serious when you're celebrating a happy milestone in a child's life. For a baptism, "wear a little bit of color, like a bright suit or a pretty daytime dress," says Post. The dress code for a Bar Mitzvah or a Bat Mitzvah can be determined by the party held afterward. "If the party immediately follows the service, you'll wear the same thing to both, so put on a cocktail dress, but make sure to cover up with a jacket or a shawl at the temple," says fashion consultant Lauren A. Rothman. "If there's a break before the reception, you may want to change." A feminine suit works well for the service; wear something dressier to the party.

We could also use all the testing we can get for KDE 4. While feedback for the version 4.0.2 in the Beta is probably useful, what we could use even more urgently is some testing for 4.0.3 which is hitting Rawhide in the next nightly push (i.e. a few minutes/hours from now). Except in the case of major surprise schedule changes, KDE 4.0.3 will be the version in the Fedora 9 release. It fixes some bugs in 4.0.2. Kevin Kofler

Saki is a poor man's Tripwire on steriods which offers integrity protection via three different checksums: RIPEMD-160, SHA1, and MD5
Due to collisions caused in MD5 and SHA1, I thought it would be beneficial to have a tripwire-like program that would be someone's worst nightmare should they even have the technical know-how to defeat MD5 or SHA1. They'd have to go through hell and beyond to change the checksums.
Saki is still a work in progress yet functional right now. It began as a one liner I had to check against something I already had on file, sure I could have done it in perl, ruby, etc., etc., who cares, it works and does what I wanted it to do.
When I wrote it, I wrote it to checksum all of the files in my $PATH. This was all I was concerned with at the time.
Why not Samhain? Samhain is a good program. Takes forever to run, but it is a good program. But there are one too many requirements with Samhain though and other programs like it: Zlib, thislib, thatlib... What about if I were on a barebones system and I couldn't access any of these? All saki is using are raw commands with the exception of OpenSSL.
Samhain took about 3 minutes just to compile, another 3-4 minutes to configure, then about an hour to run through my system and do anything... Saki? Two minutes 3625 files checksummed and archived.
Machine gets compromised in a colo and is taken offline. You don't want to bring that machine online for whatever reason, and you need information now and fast. What would Samhain or other programs do for you if you haven't installed them already? If installed, great, but with a machine offline for whatever reason, what's the next best thing... Straightforward system commands.
This was written under the impression it would be installed or run on a server. You can take the database created and send it to any machine for even further intergrity against someone who gains root access. Copy the db information over and save it on another machine for comparison checking.
Myself, I have both the db and a good old text file I can diff against. Both reside off of the machine the initial script ran on. Translation? Go ahead and compromise the machine. I will know what's been compromised. If you're that good to break all three hashes, then email me and I will FedEx you the physical machine at that point.
Saki is really a baseline idea meant for someone with a decent knowledge of Linux or shell scripting, someone who knows what they're doing (unlike me) who can modify it to their needs, add cron entries, etc.

Florante de Leon, better known as Florante, is a folk music artist known for the 1970s hit songs like Handog, Abakada and Ako'y Isang Pinoy. He was one of the artists considered instrumental to the emergence of Pinoy folk music Philippines.
Florante started his career by playing with several bands. Influenced by the growing popularity of folk and country music in the West, he gave up his band and decided to go solo to pursue a music career as a folksinger. Florante began composing his own materials, relying on his poetic talent and guitar skills. He started playing his own songs in different venues until a recording company took notice of him and offered him a recording contract. He quickly rose to fame when his songs played on the radio.
Folk-rock and Manila sound
Florante was one of the early leading exponent of Pinoy folk-rock during DZRJ-AM radio boom in Manila during the 1970s. While at his peak, two of some popular folk artist were beginning to create names for themselves:Freddie Aguilar and Heber Bartolome.
Florante is considered a part of the 1970s' Manila sound.
