User Guide for Standard Script Repository GC
This page mainly describes the old Google Code repository. We now use Github.
Welcome to the phuse-scripts repository. This site hosts standard scripts for data transformations and analyses across and/or within a therapeutic area and exploratory analysis. Our goal is to standardize analyses across the industry, but also include examples of what can be done with a standardized data set. We aim to establish this repository as the place to collaborate and share between industry and regulators.

What role you want to play?
In Google code, there are two roles that a person can play:
- Committer
- In the FDA/PhUSE repository, someone is able to take on responsibilities for editing, adding and maintaining scripts in the repository. Committers should be prepared to contribute his or her time to share or develop a script and/or commit to work on others' scripts. Committers should feel that they have the necessary skills and experience to enhance the set of existing scripts in the repository. Committers may recruit additional help from other committers and contributors to develop the script and document milestones of the script advancements.
- Contributor
- This role is designed more for script users, who may occassionally want to participate in editing and enhancing scripts. Do not have write access to the complete library of scripts, but can be given access to individual scripts to work on specific issues. A contributor shall take specific duties in the repository and may participate in the development of specific scripts.
Usually, only Committers may add new scripts. If you are a contributor, you can request to have edit privileges by emailing to one of the repository maintainers.
How to add a new script
You have two methods to add a script:
- using browser or
- using subversion client tool such as TortoiseSVN.
In the repository, go to the sources tab and navigate to the appropriate directory. The directories are organised by scripting language (e.g. R/SAS) and then into analytical or functional areas. Inside each functional area (e.g. the DM directory for demographic scripts), there are 6 directories:
- baks: backup and old versions
- data: example or test data files
- docs: documentation
- result: any outputs files
- src: source code
- valid: validation files
For more information about the folder structure, please review this file: http://code.google.com/p/phuse-scripts/source/browse/trunk/folder_structure_proposed.txt.
Users are encouraged to add documentation when adding a script. There are template documents for User Guides and Specifications documents here (link to be added), and it is strongly encouraged to utilize these documents for new scripts and to follow the recommended name conventions.
Committers will add scripts or packages of scripts as "Downloads" as appropriate. "Downloads" are easily accessible packages of code that can be downloaded by anyone.
Add script through browser
- Limitations with Browser
- Cannot create folders
- Cannot rollback
- Steps for for adding a script through a browser

- Provide description in the commit log field
- Click the "Commit" button.
- Caution
- if you have not done step 7, your change will not be saved!
Add script through TortoiseSVN
- Limitations
- Require permission to install TortoiseSVN or other subversion client
- Require password to upload scripts
- Advantages
- You can check out the whole repository
- You can create folders
- You can test your codes if you have the software on your local computer
- You can conduct editing, merging, rollback tasks
- Steps for adding scripts through TortoiseSVN
- Install TortoiseSVN by following the links listed in http://code.google.com/p/phuse-scripts/wiki/ReadMeFirst or the steps in this file http://www.prosvn.org/download/TortoiseSVN%20-%20Installation%20EN.pdf
- Once you have installed the subversion client, you can check out the whole repository by following the instruction at http://code.google.com/p/phuse-scripts/source/checkout
- Once you have the repository at your local drive, you can navigate to the folder in the local repository and just copy your script to the folder
- Then right-click on the folder, then click the "SVN Commit"
How to edit a script
Only committers or contributors with edit privileges can edit scripts.
The FDA/PhUSE script repository uses a Subversion repository to manage version control. Further information can be found here: http://subversion.apache.org. It is recommended that you use a package to manage Subversion with your operating system. A list can be found by clicking here. For Windows users, there is some experience in the group with the Tortoise SVN package that can be downloaded here (be careful not to click on the download buttons that appear in adverts on the page).
Scripts can be edited directly from the Google code webpage, or via a Subversion package installed on your local computer. Committers can raise an issue with a script to highlight the need for an edit by following the instructions below.
How to flag an issue with a script
Go to the "Issues" tab of the Google Code repository and click the new issue button, completing the details on the displayed form.
How to resolve conflict of concurrent editing
Google Code does not manage concurrent editing of scripts by different users. Processes to handle development by scripts by multiple users are in development.

A lot of people will often talk about the internet anonymity theory, and from personal experience, I find that there is a lot of truth to the theory. There is definitely something about knowing that you are 100% completely anonymous that turns some people into complete and total assholes. Why am I telling you something you already know?! (I can hear you wondering this from here!). Well, I'd like to use this post as a tale of caution for people who someday may want to consider joining a guild, any guild.
As a public service announcement, I would like to remind everyone right now that you never know who you may be interacting with, and how those people may or may not affect your future in the game! Here are a few key behaviours that are likely to get a guild application rejected solely based on how you are perceived by those you interact with on a day to day basis:
- "Everyone remembers an Asshole" ~ Confucius according to Rimar – Did you just train mobs on that guy questing that got to the quest mob before you? Did you ninja items in a PuG? Did you drop a dungeon group after you got what you wanted? Yea, these are the things that people remember about you. Maybe you were just having a bad day, maybe you are a saint the rest of the time! It only takes one time to rub someone the wrong way for them to remember you as "that asshole that…". It could have been a day ago or a year ago, people have long memories for this type of thing; however, never fear, it's pretty easy to fix this problem: Just be respectful.
- The Trade Channel Guy – Yea, you know who you are. You are the guy that has nothing better to do than spam trade chat all day. From being annoying to being abusive, being the trade channel guy is not going to do you a whole lot of favors when it comes time to have people take you seriously! I can't tell you how many times we've asked about an applicant to hear "he's an ass in trade chat, that's all I really know"…and that is enough for us to know we aren't interested. How you present yourself on an everyday basis tells people a lot about you!
- The Forum Guy – Closely related to Trade Chat Guy, The Forum Guy is often much worse, as he immortilizes his level of assholeishness for everyone to see. The forum guy is the guy that berates everyone and tells them how terrible they are. The forum guy is the guy that responds to someone who is asking for help with "lul L2P". People will remember you, Forum Guy! Especially if you had something to say in the past about the guild that you are applying for now.
- The Best Player on the Server – Anyone claiming to be "the best" has one major flaw, in my opinion. They fail to realise that they have somewhere to improve. Someone that doesn't recognize the room for growth is going to be someone that is never going to be "the best" of anything. Of course, they also have another thing…a huge ego! People that generally do nothing but talk about how great they are usually aren't, well, that great! It is important to remember that modesty is also an important skill to have.
- The Trash Talker – You know who you are. The guy that has to make yourself feel better by trying to make others feel bad. The guy in the instance that feels that the only way to make your group successful is to tell everyone else how much they suck. The guy from another server that has to log in an alt on your server just to tell you how awful you are. The guy that PMs you back after you've rejected his application with "I didn't want to be part of your shit guild anyhow, have fun being mediocre"…and then applies again on another character! Yea, we will remember you…and then deny your membership into our mediocre club once again!
Yes, it never ceases to amaze me that people think their behavior in game, or out, will not be noticed and taken into account when completing an application to a guild. It never ceases to amaze me that respect is apparently nothing more than an Aretha Franklin song to some people. It never ceases to amaze me that people think that skill should trump every other aspect of the game.
You have been warned! You never know who may be evaluating your actions! The internet and your anonymity really does not grant you the lack of accountability that you think it does.

The sad news of Robin Williams' death means the planned Mrs Doubtfire sequel is now unlikely to go ahead.
But the 63-year-old actor had a string of unreleased movies in the can before his suspected suicide.
Robin won a Golden Globe award for his starring role in 1993 Mrs Doubtfire, about an actor father who poses as a female housekeeper in order to spend time with his children after the break up of his marriage.
In April it was revealed the long mooted sequel had been resurrected by Fox 2000 with Robin attached to star, original director Chris Columbus on board and David Berenbaum, who penned 2003 movie Elf, writing the script, but this now looks in doubt.
Fans of the late comedy genius gathered at the house in San Francisco where the original movie was filmed to pay their respects and remember their favourite performances.
Among the many flowers and candles, fans laid photographs of Robin as Mrs Doubtfire and alien Mork from sitcom Mork & Mindy, as well as a sign bearing the words "Oh captain, my captain" from Dead Poets Society.
Robin was found hanged in his home in Tiburon, California, on Monday. He was discovered by his personal assistant after he failed to answer his door.
Folllowing news of the comedian's death, fans flocked to the house in Steiner Street in the Pacific Heights area of San Francisco that was used as the family home in the film.
One note on a bouquet of flowers read: "Thank you for a wonderful childhood with your many movies, you made our childhood much more enjoyable." Another said: "Our hearts are broken."
Films that Robin did complete before his death include The Angriest Man In Brooklyn, co-starring Peter Dinklage and Mila Kunis, about a man who is told he has just 90 minutes to live and make his peace with family. The movie had a limited release in the US in May but is yet to be shown in the UK.
He also reprised his role as Theodore Roosevelt in the third instalment of children's adventure Night At The Museum series, which is due for release just before Christmas.
And Robin voiced the part of dog Dennis in Monty Python star Terry Jones' upcoming comedy Absolutely Anything about a man granted omnipotence by a group of aliens. The Monty Python team voice the aliens while Simon Pegg stars as Dennis' owner.
Before he died, Robin also made Boulevard, which premiered at this year's Tribeca Film Festival, about a middle class bank employee forced to confront his marriage of convenience, romance The Face Of Love with Annette Bening and family road trip comedy Merry Friggin' Christmas.
Joel McHale who co-stars in Merry Friggin' Christmas tweeted about Williams, saying: "You were one of the very best that ever was. You were one of my heroes."
And the tributes have continued to flood in for the late, great actor and comedian.
Ben Affleck and Matt Damon who starred with Robin in their Oscar-winning debut Good Will Hunting both paid homage to him.
The film brought Williams his only Academy Award and launched the careers of Affleck and Damon.
Ben posted this on his Facebook page: "Heartbroken. Thanks chief - for your friendship and for what you gave the world. Robin had a ton of love in him. He personally did so much for so many people. He made Matt and my dreams come true.
"What do you owe a guy who does that? Everything. May you find peace my friend. #RobinWilliams."
And Matt released a statement saying, "Robin brought so much joy into my life and I will carry that joy with me forever. He was such a beautiful man. I was lucky to know him and I will never, ever forget him."
Sarah Michelle Gellar, 37, who played Robin's onscreen daughter in the short-lived CBS comedy The Crazy Ones, also joined the stars lining up to pay tribute to him
"My life is a better place because I knew Robin Williams," Sarah told People in a statement. "To my children he was Uncle Robin, to everyone he worked with, he was the best boss anyone had ever known, and to me he was not just an inspiration but he was the Father I had always dreamed of having. There are not enough adjectives to describe the light he was, to anyone that ever had the pleasure to meet him. I will miss him everyday, but I know the memory of him will live on. And to his family, I thank them for letting us know him and seeing the joy they brought him. Us crazy ones love you."
Billy Crystal and Whoopi Goldberg, who both worked with Robin on comedy fundraiser Comic Relief shared their heartbreak.
Billy tweeted: "No words", while Whoopi added on Twitter: "Billy Crystal is right... There are no words."

Torres set for Milan medical
Chelsea striker Fernando Torres will undergo a medical at AC Milan on Saturday after the clubs agreed a two-year loan deal, with Loic Remy and Mattia Destro among the names being touted as possible replacements.
Much was expected from Torres when he arrived from Liverpool in January 2011 for what was a British-record deal.
However, the 30-year-old fell well short of living up to his £50million price tag and, after a frustrating three and a half years at Stamford Bridge, appears to have played his last match for the club.
Fernando Torres is heading out of Chelsea
On Friday evening - just hours after manager Jose Mourinho downplayed speculation he would leave - Chelsea confirmed that the Spain striker would be joining Milan on loan until the expiration of his contract in 2016, subject to a medical.
"Chelsea Football Club and AC Milan have agreed terms for the two-year loan deal of Fernando Torres to the Italian club," read a statement on the club's official website, www.chelseafc.com.
"The move is now subject to Fernando agreeing personal terms with AC Milan and passing a medical examination."
Press Association Sport understands Chelsea will not be picking up any of Torres' wages during his loan spell.
Although the Spain international only showed glimpses of his ability during his time in west London, Mourinho spoke highly of him as a player and a person on Friday afternoon.
At a press conference previewing Saturday's trip to Everton, the Portuguese said the "situation hasn't arisen yet" and was not one they were planning for, given he felt they need three strikers to fight on all fronts this season - admitting the Blues would be in trouble if Torres departed given no Plan B is in place.
"Well, if that happens in the last hour of the market, we are in trouble," said Mourinho.
"We are not prepared. It's something new. We have our ideas, we have our contacts.
"Obviously we have to react if that situation happens. The market for us is closed. But because the market is 'open', it's never completely closed.
"I've believed for a long time that the squad is closed. We have our squad. We like our squad. It's not the perfect one, because no squad is perfect, but it's one we like."
Torres became the butt of many a joke during his time at Stamford Bridge but it was not without its successes, given he won the Champions League, Europa League and an FA Cup.
Reports on Friday evening suggested the Blues were to open talks with QPR striker Remy to fill the Torres void, while i t has also been widely speculated that Roma forward Destro was being lined up.
The Italy international's burgeoning reputation has grown in the Eternal City and he is a player Mourinho knows well from his time at the Inter Milan helm.
The Blues boss refused to speak outright about any interest in Destro at his Friday press conference, but admitted any replacement for Torres would almost certainly be foreign.
"If we have to react to Fernando's departure, we'll react by buying a foreign striker because I don't see an English striker in the market that would come to us, or where his club would let him come to us," he said.
"If we lose a foreign striker, we need another foreign striker."

Chalk talk: LSU at Georgia: How the units stack up, game prediction
Here's a breakdown of Saturday's contest versus Georgia in several categories plus a game prediction.
Kickoff is set for 2:30 p.m. Saturday.
LSU rushing offense versus Georgia rushing defense
You gotta have different rules for different guys. Most players in Jeremy Hill's position would have never stepped foot on campus again. But Jeremy Hill isn't most players, and with an SEC high six rushing touchdowns and an SEC fourth-best 351 yards (despite not playing in one game), you can see why Les Miles didn't want to kick him off the team. Sorry, life isn't fair.
And life might not be fair for Georgia's defense Saturday. With seven defenders drafted this April, including inside linebacker Alec Ogletree and defensive tackle John Jenkins, the Dawgs have struggled to fill those holes and others. They've given up 143.3 yards per game on the ground, which isn't very good considering the Mean Green rushed for just seven yards last week.
Georgia gave up a 100-yard-plus rusher versus Clemson and South Carolina, and I'd expect LSU to do the same with Hill
Advantage: LSU
LSU passing offense versus Georgia passing defense
With the tutelage of Cam Cameron, Zach Mettenberger has been simply magnificent in 2013 with 10 passing scores and one pick. Odell Beckham Jr. and Jarvis Landry have emerged into two of the best receivers in the league, and most importantly, Mett has time to throw as LSU has surrendered just four sacks in four games.
Georgia's pass defense is hurting without Jarvis Jones rushing the passer and Sean Williams, Sanders Commings and Bacarri Rambo guarding on the back end. You'd expect Tajh Boyd and possibly Connor Shaw to rip them up. But Derek Thompson and Andrew McNutty? The Mean Green signal callers combined to complete 26-of-41 passes for 238 yards with a touchdowns and a pick. Not groundbreaking numbers, but that's North Texas.
LSU's athletes roll Saturday, and Mett has all day to find them.
Advantage: LSU
Georgia rushing offense versus LSU rushing defense
This is where Georgia can really take control of the game Saturday. True sophomore running back Todd Gurley is a man beyond his years – Adrian Peterson style. Also in three games, he's got 26 more yards than Hill and has found the end zone four times. Gurley is the best back at Georgia since Herschel Walker, and I mean it.
As surprisingly good as LSU's inexperienced defense has been this year, stopping the run up the middle has been as issue. They've got only two viable defensive tackles right now in Anthony Johnson and Ego Ferguson, and quite frankly D.J. Welter is a below-average SEC middle linebacker. Seven rushing touchdowns allowed is two off the worst in the SEC, and I'm just not sure LSU has the bodies up front to stop the Dawgs.
It's troubling when you can't stop the run in an SEC game, and if Georgia wins the contest, the category will be the biggest reason why.
Advantage: Georgia
Georgia passing offense versus LSU passing defense
Where LSU's inexperience on defense has hurt them versus the run, the Tigers have been great versus the pass giving up just 173.8 yards per game (2nd, SEC) and one passing touchdown. That's even more tremendous considering how many minutes LSU has been playing with the lead this season. LSU's seven sacks is fifth in the SEC, and Georgia has struggled to protect Murray surrendering six sacks in three games.
Despite the protection problems and the lack of targets to throw to following the loss of top receiver Malcolm Mitchell celebrating versus Clemson, Murray has been miraculous with seven touchdowns, two picks and an SEC-high 346.7 passing yards per game.
Because I think Georgia will be able control the game on the ground and therefore limit difficult situations and passes for Murray, I will give Georgia the advantage here. But in a vacuum, this is a heck of a matchup, and if LSU can get after Murray, look out.
Advantage: Georgia
Special teams
Special teams nearly cost Georgia the game last week before its offense woke up and quickly dispatched of North Texas. A 99-yard kickoff return score and a blocked punt recovered in the end zone actually drew the Mean Green to a 21-21 tie in the third quarter last week. Add in OBJ's 100-plus-yard field goal return for a score versus UAB, and a big play could swing the game in LSU's direction.
As for the kicking game, Colby Delahoussaye is a perfect 4-for-4 in field goals and 23-for-23 in extra points, but his longest kick is 28-yards, and if you read last week, you know I question his range. Georgia appears to have a short-range kicker in Patrick Beless who is 2-of-2 with a long of 37 and long-range kicker Marshall Morgan, who is 1-for-2 with a miss from 50+. Punting is about even.
Advantage: LSU
Each coach owns a road victory over the other with Les Miles breaking the deadlock over Mark Richt via the 2011 SEC Championship Game victory in Atlanta. Both coaches have two conference titles, but Miles has parlayed his conference titles into a national title win and another appearance. Richt has had to settle for a pair of Sugar Bowls following his conference crowns.
With six SEC East titles in 12 years, it's been quite the anomaly that Georgia hasn't found its way into the BCS Title Game. It's been a combination of bad luck and Richt being unable to win the big one. He's had the unbelievable knack for consistently beating teams he should beat while simultaneously rarely beating teams he shouldn't. The Dawgs have wallowed in the rut of SEC mediocrity since Richt's last SEC title in 2005, but he's always done just enough to save his job.
Miles has been equally maligned at times by LSU fans, but he's shown the ability to not only beat the teams he should beat, but also win the big one. Give me Miles in this category, but Richt is a hell of a coach, and the gap here isn't as wide as you would think.
Advantage: LSU
Prior to the season, I would have taken Georgia to win this game in a relative rout. Then the Tigers found an offense for the first time since 2007, LSU's defensive dropoff was incredibly overstated and the Dawgs have struggled mightily to fill their defensive gaps.
The key for LSU will be to slow down Gurley and the UGA rushing game enough to force Murray to beat them. Don't get me wrong. He can. But if Georgia's rushing attack can keep LSU's offense off the field while also scoring, a road win versus a top-10 foe will be next to impossible. However, a few more throws from Georgia than the gameplan calls for could result in sacks and possibly worse.
On the other side of the ball, I expect LSU to have no problem moving the ball through the air and ground. Georgia can't stop the run, and they can't guard anybody or rush the passer. Mett, Hill, Landry and OBJ should all have big days. They've just gotta have the ball enough to do so.
Richt's inability to win the big one concerns me, but Miles' recent track record in close games does too. I'm going to take LSU and bet on John Chavis and the Tiger defense to come up big, but man, this is a tough call. I can't wait to see how this one plays out, and I bet you can't either.
LSU 31, Georgia 30

It has been a week since conservative writer Kevin McCullough attacked Mass Effect for its mature content. He has since apologized in the face of extensive criticism. However, that hasn't stopped FOX News from picking up and spinning the story for its own purposes: the Mass Effect debacle has now hit mainstream media.
Using a similar title to McCullough's article, the segment "'Se'Xbox? New Video Game Shows Full Digital Nudity and Sex" featured a debate between talk show host Cooper Lawrence and Spike TV's Geoff Keighley earlier this week. Though Keighley tried valiantly to defend the game, he was outnumbered.
Lawrence and the other panel critics cited a study "out of the University of Maryland right now that says that boys that play video games cannot tell the difference between what they're seeing in the video game and the real world." This was combined with an exaggerated and falsified representation of the actual in-game content in order to suggest that the game should have shipped with an Adults Only rating. "Who can argue, possibly, that Luke Skywalker meets Debbie Does Dallas is a good thing. It's not. And I'm definitely not going to let Mass Effect in my house," one panelist concluded.
GamePolitics has a transcript of the conversation as well as a video of the panel. Though it's frustrating to watch, it's not really anything new for gamers. The mass media often targets games as the source of violence in society, and now it seems that rampant sexual deviance is another one of the many wrongs that our industry perpetuates.

Tech, Yes
This story appears in the November 1999 issue of . Subscribe »
The computer and the Internet are powering our soaring economy-and propelling thousands of entrepreneurs to multi-millionaire status. The roar of traffic on the Web shows no signs of slowing. If you haven't already, how can you speed into the fast lane?
One alternative is to purchase a franchise or business opportunity in the high-tech industry. And if the most high-tech thing you've ever done is check e-mail or use a word-processing program, good news: Many of these companies provide enough training and assistance to get you started, even if you consider yourself more of a technophobe than a computer whiz.
The franchise and business opportunity companies listed on the following pages fall into three basic categories: Internet-related businesses, computer training, and computer products and services. It's important to keep in mind that Business Start-Ups does not analyze or evaluate this information, and this listing is not intended to endorse or recommend any opportunity. Always conduct your own thorough investigation of a franchise or business opportunity before you invest any money. The best way to protect yourself is to be cautious.
Computer Training
As you're speeding along on the Net, you may not realize how much opportunity lies in those putt-putting behind you as you leave them in the dust. A 1998 survey by the American Society for Training and Development identified an increased need to provide computer-skills training as the most significant human resources trend today, with 90 percent of respondents citing IT training as an area of increasing importance.
"I think there's always room for more [computer-training businesses]," says Marnie L. Pehrson, president of the International Association of Computer Professionals and founder of Computer Enhancement Systems Business Consultants, a Web site development company in Ringgold, Georgia. "Up until the year 2003, for every 10 technical people needed, there are only going to be seven available. There aren't enough [people trained] to meet the technical needs of the world right now."
The rapid pace of technological change is the biggest obstacle cited by 72 percent of the survey respondents-and therefore the biggest area of opportunity for entrepreneurs. With so many organizations finding it hard to keep up with changing technology, training in this area is in increasing demand. Potential clients include executives at large corporations in need of training, entrepreneurs who don't have their own in-house training departments, and individuals who want to improve their skills in order to compete in the job market.
Internet Opportunities
You don't have to be a pirate of Silicon Valley to find success in the computer world. Today it's all about the Internet. As more businesses move to the Net to expand their customer base, there is high demand for Internet companies to help set up and market these virtual storefronts. A study conducted by the Center for Research on Electronic Commerce at the University of Texas in Austin shows that the impact of the Internet on the nation's economy exceeded $301 billion in revenues and accounted for more than 1.2 million jobs in 1998.
"It's a good time to get into [e-commerce,] simply because the market is growing so quickly," says Rosalind Resnick, co-author of The Internet Business Guide (Macmillan Publishing, $25, 800-858-7674) and president of NetCreations Inc., a New York City provider of opt-in e-mail marketing services. "The great thing about the Net is that there are almost no barriers to entry. You can just put up a Web site and start selling products and services online."
Computer Products & Services
When consumers shop for computer products and services, they're looking for bargains--and the best customer service. To succeed, "start with something you know well and develop a niche in that particular area," says Marnie L. Pehrson at the International Association of Computer Professionals. "There's a lot of demand for custom applications, high-end Internet programming and computer repair."
As technology evolves, users will constantly be upgrading their existing software and systems. Whether your forte is in software, computer upgrades or networks, you'll always have a skill businesses and consumers need.

Jamie Shafer has jogged in cities all over North America, but when he laced up his running shoes to tackle West Vancouver's seawall for the first time, he noticed something distinctly different about running in this city.
Shafer said everywhere else he's run, including big cities such as Toronto and Miami, joggers greet each other in some way — a nod, a smile, a thumbs-up.
"In Vancouver ... it's noticeably absent," he said. "If you simply wave ... they almost move away from you."
Talk to people in Metro Vancouver about their interactions with others, and similar stories abound. Newcomers to the city talk about going weeks without anyone offering to show them around or invite them for dinner. Apartment dwellers talk about distrusting their neighbours to the extent that they're afraid to let their children play unsupervised outside.
A survey conducted by the Vancouver Foundation and released today found Metro Vancouver residents feel increasingly estranged from their friends, their neighbours and their communities.
When the Vancouver Foundation conducted a smaller survey last year aimed at pinpointing the issue Metro residents are most concerned about, staff were surprised to find that this lack of connection beat out homelessness, drug abuse and affordability, said Catherine Clement, the foundation's vice-president of public engagement.
In an effort to determine the scale of the problem, the Vancouver Foundation polled just over 3,800 people by telephone and online about their social interactions and published the results in a survey entitled Connections and Engagement.
Much of the news is good. Most people reported having close friends they see fairly regularly and talking to their neighbours once a week or more. Most also reported feeling they belong in their communities and that their neighbourhood would welcome all ethnic groups equally. A majority of people said they do not experience discrimination in their day-to-day lives.
However, some troubling trends emerged.
One in four respondents reported feeling alone more often than they would like and one-third said they consider Vancouver a difficult place to make friends.
Most people don't socialize with their neighbours and almost one-third of respondents said they have little interest in getting to know them.
About half don't volunteer in their communities and most people feel that while diversity is generally a good thing, most still prefer to be with others from their own ethnic group.
Affordability factored heavily in the survey results, with roughly equal numbers of people reporting living comfortably and finding it difficult to get by.
Significantly, more than half of respondents agreed that Vancouver is becoming a resort town for the wealthy and that there is too much foreign ownership of real estate. This view was particularly common among people aged 25-34, a group whose responses to many survey questions revealed a marked cynicism about the state of their communities compared with other age groups.
It is important to pay attention to these results because the strength of the connections between people and groups in a society is ultimately a measure of its resilience, said Clement.
"In examples where you see people become more insulated, it makes it very difficult to address bigger issues that affect the entire community because people's interest doesn't go beyond their front yard or ... beyond their block or their immediate group," she said, giving homelessness, bullying and housing affordability as examples. Criminologists have also found that neighbourhoods where people know each other tend to have lower crime rates.
Bob Cowin spoke about losing a sense of connection with his neighbours over the years. Cowin moved into a new subdivision in Coquitlam in the mid-'80s where the developer had landscaped the front yards, but the backyards were nothing but mud. Neighbours got to know each other creating their back gardens and building the retaining walls that were necessary because most properties backed onto a mountain slope.
"Swinging a sledge hammer and dashing down to the local building supplies store for a different drill bit resulted not only in walls but also relationships," Cowin wrote in an email.
A year after the retaining walls were finished, Cowin noticed a new kind of wall going up: cedar fences between properties that made the neighbourly conversations that used to happen over the fence impossible.
A burst of young children brought the adults in the community together in a different way, forming child-minding co-ops and walking school buses, Cowin recalled. The elementary school became a social hub, and the neighbourhood held yearly block parties.
Then the children started middle school and didn't need their parents as much, he said.
"The street was extended, and the sense of a local place disappeared. Houses started being sold, and a different, and increasingly multicultural, demographic moved in."
Cowin feels the increasing ethnic diversity was a mixed blessing for his neighbourhood.
"It has been great for our kids, who, thanks in large measure to the schools, have developed a tolerance and intercultural competence that I admire," he said. "For the adults, language and other barriers have made it tougher. My new neighbours are still fine people, but it takes more effort and intentionality to maintain relationships."
The ultimate test of community resilience is a natural disaster, Clement said. Societies tend to either pull together, as did the communities in Sri Lanka affected by the 2004 tsunami, or unravel, as was the case in New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina, she said.
"It's what was there before that disaster that really made the difference to how citizens reacted," Clement said, noting that the B.C. coast is due for a major earthquake in the coming years.
Social isolation also has well-documented health effects. A 2007 study by the University of California at Los Angeles found that loneliness weakens the immune system and makes people more vulnerable to disease. University of Chicago researchers linked loneliness with high blood pressure in 2006, and a 2009 American Academy of Neurology study found that people who are socially active are less likely to get dementia. Simply joining a club is as good for your health as quitting smoking, exercising or losing weight, the Vancouver Foundation report said, citing U.S. research.
The Vancouver Foundation data also show a significant link between feeling alone and fragile health, according to an analysis of the results conducted by Adam DiPaula of Sentis Research. More than half — 54 per cent — of people who said they felt alone more often than they like also reported being in fair or poor health, compared with 27 per cent of people who do not feel alone.
People who reported feeling alone are most likely to be between the ages of 25 and 34, single, living alone in an apartment and experiencing financial strain, according to the Sentis analysis.
They are also more likely to have negative views of their neighbourhoods and communities in general, DiPaula said, noting that the results reveal a distinct hardening of attitudes toward others among those who report feeling most isolated. They were more likely to agree that those who live here but don't speak English don't try hard enough to be part of the community, that there is too much foreign ownership of real estate, and that Vancouver is becoming a resort town for the wealthy.
The results show that feeling alone is more than just an individual problem, but one that has ripple effects throughout neighbourhoods and communities, said the Vancouver Foundation's Clement.
"It doesn't just affect their immediate feeling of, 'I'm alone.' It starts to infect how they feel about the larger community that they're a part of," she said. "We ignore those feelings at our detriment."
Coquitlam resident Cowin said that while it is necessary to have relationships with others based on shared interests and values, it may not be enough.
"I'm increasingly thinking that these relationships need to be complemented with people who we encounter regularly on an ad hoc basis and with whom we share a robust network of mutual acquaintances," he said.
"I've lost some of that 'village' over the past decade."

Frequently Asked Questions about the Army Green-to-Gold Program
- Where do I enroll, and when?
A. You enroll in Army ROTC the same time you enroll in college. Army ROTC courses may be taken at more than 800 colleges and universities. Army ROTC is offered at 272 schools. The remaining schools are those with partnership agreements. At a partnership school, you take your academic course work at the college at which you earn your degree. You take your ROTC work at a "host" institution nearby.
- Can I enroll in ROTC while on active duty?
A. There is a new Green to Gold Active Duty Option Program. If you meet the qualifications for this program, you may apply.
- Can I apply for a 4-Year Green to Gold Scholarship if I already have some college credit?
A. Yes, as long as the college accepts you as an academic freshman and you have four years remaining in your course of study.
- If I reenlist, how much time must I complete on my second enlistment?
A. There is no minimum requirement. If you are selected for the Green to Gold program, you may be released from active duty regardless of the amount of time remaining on your second enlistment.
- Can I apply for a 2- or 3-Year Scholarship if I do not have the proper number of credit hours but expect to have them prior to Fall enrollment?
A. Yes. You must have a letter from the school that you wish to attend stating that you are conditionally accepted as an academic junior or sophomore contingent upon completing the required number of credit hours. If you win a scholarship, you are a conditional winner pending acceptance at the school. You must provide proof of the required number of credit hours and unconditional acceptance by the university prior to your discharge.
- Can a soldier who previously won an ROTC scholarship, and who was dis-enrolled from it, apply for a Green to Gold Scholarship?
A. No. Cadet Command Regulation 145-1 paragraph 9a clearly states that scholarship winners who dis-enroll for any reason are ineligible to re-compete in any ROTC scholarship program.
- Can I take terminal leave with my early discharge?
A. No. Terminal leave cannot be taken in conjunction with early discharge IAW AR 600-200.
- Where can I ship my household goods?
A. Your entitlement for the shipment of household goods is back to your home of record. If the cost to ship your goods to your school of choice is more than to ship it to your home of record than you will be responsible for the difference.
- I understand that veterans are not required to take the freshman and sophomore level ROTC classes. Will I have to take these courses if I get a 3- or 4-Year Scholarship?
A. Yes, you will have to take these courses. As a scholarship winner you are a contracted cadet and must enroll in and successfully complete the basic course IAW the contract. As a 2-Year Scholarship winner or non-scholarship cadet your prior experience satisfies the basic course requirements.
- I am in the Marines (or Navy or Air Force). Can I apply for a Green to Gold Scholarship?
A. No, the Army does not have authorization to discharge members of sister services therefore, members of sister services are not eligible for Green to Gold scholarships.

I am a research assistant at the University of Glasgow. Like all archaeologists, I'm an individual of many talents: I have degrees in archaeology, I'm based in the University Archives, and I'm technically a staff member in the Department of History.
I am the project officer for Glasgow University's Great War, a research project led by well-known fellow archaeologist Tony Pollard that looks at the experiences of the university community during the First World War. The project is part of the university's WWI centenary commemorations. I specialise in conflict archaeology and I've excavated on the Western Front, so the Great War Project is a good fit for me.
On a normal day I mostly do research, with a bit of admin thrown in (though there is the occasional day when that balance is reversed). Today I'm looking at material from Capt JAC Macewen RAMC, son of the famous Glasgow surgeon Sir William Macewen. I'm particularly interested in the younger Macewen's letters home to his parents. Letters to his mother are cheerful:
I have written to Mary regarding Sydney coming to France. Of course he is in danger, but, at the same time, I would not be despondent. Of our total casualties, a big percentage are sickness of one kind or other – often slight gassing & a very large percentage of wounds are really not serious. …[T]hings are not as bad as they look. So try to cheer up generally.
I am surprised to learn that Capt Macewen was put in charge of treating German POWs. I'm particularly keen to pass along this info to another archaeologist at the University of Glasgow, Iain Banks, who is researching European POW camps. Capt Macewen wrote to his father describing the medical cases he saw:
I see all cases, including fractures, head injuries (I have operated on 4 of these today) & abdomens…. …[T]he Germans are much tougher than we are & survive the most appalling injuries. One man I did today has half of his face blown away & a large hernia cerebri of his frontal lobe – so that I see very much worse cases than the others do. Truly the suffering in this war is not all on one side.
One of the letters even includes seashells from Paris Plage sent home in May 1918.
Wandering around the repository is always an adventure. I don't have the honed knowledge of the collections like my archivist colleagues, so my trips to the shelves to pull material are usually more meandering, sometimes resulting in dead ends (I haven't set off the alarm by going through a fire door in MONTHS). Exploring the stacks in this haphazard way is occasionally fruitful, discovering something I didn't know I was looking for. Sometimes I come up empty-handed. Even if I do, the journey is always interesting.
Wandering past a shelf, I spotted an over-size album of the Glasgow Archaeological Society. It's full of photos, clippings, notes and drawings like this sketch of Rough Castle Roman Fort.
There are plenty of artefacts kicking about, too. I spotted a few from the Scottish Brewing Archive.
I also meandered past the (very large!) glass slide collection of Sir John Harvard Biles.
That's my Day of Archaeology. Until next year, you can keep up-to-date on Glasgow University's Great War Project by following us on Twitter and checking out our newly-launched blog.

What is glamping? Gypsies were one of the first groups of people to create this decorating craze and now it's become a camping lifestyle.
Glamping simply means camping glamorously. MaryJane Butters is the queen of this trend. Her book, "Glamping with MaryJane," according to The New York Times, is "about the juxtaposition of rugged and really pretty, grit and glam, diesel and absolutely darling."
If you thought you would never be in to camping, think again. For extended vacationers, glamping is part of the whole camping experience that many prepare for in advance.
There are glamping bed and breakfast locations that offer extended glamping stays in the U.S. as well as Africa and throughout the world. While camping has been thought of as a more economical way to spend a family vacation, extended worldwide glamping excursions may not be in the financial cards for most of us. But there's nothing stopping you from creating your own glamping experience.
Creating a warm and comfortable feel-like-home campsite is what glamping is all about. Instead of a standard, blah-looking tent, decorating your outdoor campsite and sleeping space can make the whole camping experience a glamping experience.
Here are some simple ways to glamorize your campsite.
Once your tent is set up, add a floor cloth to the ground. This can be an inexpensive painter's dropcloth purchased from your local home improvement store. Create some warmth with colorful area rugs that you've had in the attic or found items from a secondhand store.
Once the flooring is created, set up a folding air-bed frame to get yourself off the ground. Bedding can be brought from home to add color to the inside of the tent. Hang a mosquito net to the inside top of the tent to keep out pests while you rest. Add colorful pillows to complete the bedding ensemble.
Next add a storage trunk for a dresser with a vanity mirror and suitcases for night stands. Most camp sites have the option for power hookup. Bring a couple bedside lamps that can be used for reading at night.
There are many home decor possibilities that can be created to enhance your glamping experience. Screen-printed hand towels, novelty glamping fabrics and DIY camping accessories are a fun project for children to prepare for their glamping vacation.

KINGSTON, N.Y. -- A proposed "Parks & Recreation Master Plan" for the city will be the focus of public meeting Wednesday evening. The meeting is scheduled for 6 p.m. at the Everette Hodge Midtown Community Center on Franklin Street and will include a presentation by Gilmour Planning of New Paltz. Gilmour created the plan as part of Cornell Cooperative Extension of Ulster County's "Creating Healthy Places to Live, Work & Play" initiative. Gilmour's work was funded with a grant from the state Department of Health. City Parks and Recreation Superintendent Kevin Gilfeather said accomplishing everything outlined in the plan's 10-year timeframe would cost about $2 million. The recommended projects include: o Replacing restrooms in city parks. o Repairing and enhancing the city's community centers. o Investing in the city's beach, fields, park pavilions and Andretta Pool, and routinely replacing and upgrading playground equipment.
Kingston Recreation Master Plan (DRAFT) "The plan reviews recreation facilities and suggests priority investments and policies to improve the recreation environment, paying particular attention to the support and reinforcement of existing parks and facilities," states a press release issued by Cornell Cooperative Extension. "The Kingston Parks & Recreation Master Plan is a guide and strategy for the continuing management and enhancement of Kingston parks, recreational facilities and services over the next 10 years," the press release also states. "The plan reviews needs and outlines ways to sustain and improve city parks and recreation resources. "Community parks, playgrounds, playing fields, complete streets and trails are essential to a quality city environment and healthy living. These assets also support a strong economy," the release adds. Written comments and questions about the parks and recreation plan may be submitted to City Clerk's Office, City Hall, 420 Broadway, Kingston, N.Y. 12401 or emailed to Gilfeather at email@example.com. More information about Cornell Cooperative Extension's "Creating Healthy Places to Live, Work & Play" initiative is available at bit.ly/YT9TyF or by calling Melinda Herzog, project coordinator, at (845) 340-3990, ext. 342.

We are currently setting up a large-scale project on security and privacy of electronic identity (eID), with major academic and industry partners. The multi-year project will establish an eID infrastructure that offers secure identity protocols and brokering as well as integration of privacy-enhancing technologies, such as attribute-based credentials. From my own perspective the project follows up on my former work in Federated Identity Management , Cryptography for Privacy-enhanced Identity Management and the Smart Identity Card. Newcastle will contribute in the analysis of identity systems for security and privacy properties, new authentication languages, and usable privacy.
Project Launch: 4th quarter 2012.

I remember how much I loved creating my own story books as a kid. But they were never very fancy; usually they were just some pieces of plain white paper, or maybe some colored construction paper, stapled together. And not that there's anything wrong with that; it's great. But I have been amazed lately by how easy it is these days to help your child create a beautiful storybook, that looks and feels like it was actually published!
My son loves creating his own books. I stuffed his Easter basket this past year with some blank books for him to create in. He filled those quickly. So when he was asking the other week to create another book and asking if I would buy him more blank books, I had an idea. I suggested he create a story with his Legos, that I would take photos to use as illustrations, and that we could use the computer to compile them into a book that he could write the words for.
He loved the idea, and went straight to work coming up with his Lego story. I figured he would need some help and prompting with arranging his Legos for the photos, but he didn't want or need help with that. He readily created a story, arranging and dictating continually as we plugged away at it. It was so fun to witness, I was really proud of him and his storytelling!
The completed book came in the mail this past week and he is so proud of it! He has me read it to him every day (his brother is getting really sick of it.). He can't get enough of hearing his story told over and over again!
So if you're looking for something fun to do with your kiddos, here's a great activity to try. Plus, it encourages literacy! Plus, it makes for a great keepsake for you as a parent!
Let your child come up with creative ideas for making their illustrations. They could use photos of toys, people (themselves/their friends and family), artwork they create... Lots of possibilities!
Have you ever made a book like this with your kids? How did it turn out? What kind of process did they use to make it? Or have you used another method for helping your child create their own book? I would love to hear about it in the comments!!

EFF Cases: Blizzard Games, MBTA/MITBy Ericka Chickowski Print
The Electronic Frontier Foundation fights tirelessly for free speech and privacy rights, but it is also a big proponent for free innovation. The following legal cases are some of the most important the EFF has participated in over the years.
6. Blizzard Games v. BnetD
The EFF doesn't win 'em all. Take this case, for instance. EFF's team argued that the BnetD programmers who developed a game server that worked with Blizzard video games such as World of Warcraft didn't violate the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), but ultimately BnetD didn't prevail because of Blizzard Games' end user license agreement (EULA) barring the practice of reverse engineering. End User Licensing Agreements (EULA) are frequently the make or break factor in such reverse engineering DMCA cases.
7. MBTA v. Anderson
One of EFF's most recent cases had it defending three students from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) who found a computer security vulnerability in the Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority fare system and wanted to present their finds at this year's DEFCON. The MBTA sued these students and got the US District Court to issue a gag order. EFF has been working on the students defense, and though the students were unable to present at DEFCON the gag order has been lifted.
