Chris Callahan - Dean, Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication, Arizona State University
View Transcript
Ted Simons: A series of events honoring the late Walter Cronkite will be held over the next month at ASU's Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communications. Tomorrow, students get to record their thoughts about Cronkite's legacy, just part of a full afternoon and evening of events. Earlier I spoke with Christopher Callahan, the Dean of the Cronkite School about his memories of Walter Cronkite and Cronkite's legacy at ASU. Chris, it's good to see you. Thanks for joining us. Not a surprise, but still a shock.
Chris Callahan: It's one of those things, Ted, that obviously, Walter had been in failing health. He was 92 years old but you're never prepared to lose somebody who is as important to the country and then to have a particular importance to the region and certainly to ASU as Walter.
Ted Simons: Your personal relationship with Walter Cronkite, talk to us about that.
Chris Callahan: Very special to me. I feel like extremely blessed. In four years, we got to be very good friends and when I would go to New York, we would have dinner and he would come out and we would talk about our two passions -- the news and the Cronkite School.
Ted Simons: You had a point where you got to go through some of his memorabilia.
Chris Callahan: I called him and we had the Jack and Marjorie Clifford gallery which has news memorabilia and I asked him if he could have some of his artifacts and he said, come to my office and take what you want.
Ted Simons: We're seeing some of those artifacts right there. We all think we know Walter Cronkite. He was in our living rooms for generations. But what kind of guy was he?
Chris Callahan: He was a genuine down to earth guy. This I didn't expect because he's Walter Cronkite, an iconic figure. When I first met him, he's one of the most humble and regular people I've had the pleasure to know.
Ted Simons: Was he -- was it all -- did he feel like -- did you feel like you knew him instantly or was there a getting acquainted period?
Chris Callahan: It was actually very hard, because of who he is. He was incredibly generous. The first time I heard from him, he had left a voicemail on my phone when I first took the job the first day and my wife said there's a phone message from Walter Cronkite. It was from him and he was generous in his comments and how excited he was about me coming to his school. And the relationship grew from there. But I never quite got past -- you would have these deep conversations with him about the news and about the future and every once in a while I would drift back to being a 10-year-old boy sitting in my parents' living room watching Walter Cronkite.
Ted Simons: We have a little bit of a story as to why Walter Cronkite put his name to the mass communications department at ASU at the time. But why do you think, A, he did it, he could have done it, he had a lot of friends and a lot of favors, I'm sure. Why here? And talk to us about that relationship, how it grew over the years.
Chris Callahan: Sure, and Walter would say they were the first to ask. And in typical reporting fashion, being first matters a lot. And that was part of it but he had a close relationship with the late Tom Chauncey. And Tom Chauncey, the second, who is still a supporter of the Cronkite school. And it was through that relationship that Walter did us the honor of giving his name for the school.
Ted Simons: And he came out for the groundbreaking. Never had a chance to see the building completed, though.
Chris Callahan: He never did, although during his last visit, at the Jane Pauley luncheon in 2007, he was -- luncheon. After the luncheon, he said, let's go and see the building. Right now? Right now. It's your building, let's go. We jumped in the car and went to downtown Phoenix and we did a visual tour, if you will, of the building and he was so genuinely excited about everything that was happening.
Ted Simons: And obviously the excitement was there, he was interested. What did he expect from ASU from the journalism department, from the school with his name on it? Did he give expectations?
Chris Callahan: Very much so. Although broadly. At the beginning, his one rule was the word journalism had to be in the school. And you would think of course. But that's not the case in many places. Many schools are much more mass communication oriented and Walter wanted a hands-on, practical liberal arts education for his students.
Ted Simons: And how much interaction did he have with the school? After the name got there, did he keep in contact?
Chris Callahan: In a lot of cases, the school is named after somebody and that's it. In fact, that relationship grew over time and the school was put on the national map in '84 when it was named after Walter, but through Walter's work with the faculty and students and leadership, it grew to a premiere school in the country.
Ted Simons: And he was involved in curriculum. To that end, a journalist steeped in old journalism traditions and never around for the Twittering and Facebook and these things. Was he open to new ways of journalism?
Chris Callahan: Very much so. He was a futurist, loved technology. Always looking to the future and the things that technology brought to the media, he was very excited about. He was not excited about some of the things that have happened in this new 24/7 news cycle culture.
Ted Simons: Like what?
Chris Callahan: The commentator, the loud talking heads on television. Celebrity-based journalism. He found that very distasteful. He was a great advocate of great journalism, of accuracy and objectivity and thoroughness and that's what we try to do at the Cronkite School.
Ted Simons: And With that in mind, what can students learn from a Walter Cronkite? There's so many things you can learn at the journalism school. Walter Cronkite becomes today's subject lesson.
Chris Callahan: He's the subject lesson every day because we built our curriculum around his values of accuracy and objectivity and fairness at the highest levels and so he lives in that building in every classroom and every student and professor every day.
Ted Simons: The program, I know you haven't been there for the 25 years, but can you tell us how it's changed over the years, from the time that Walter said, all right. I'll put my name on that school out there, and it wasn't -- it was mass communications department at the time. To where it is now, which is a top-notch facility.
Chris Callahan: Yeah, certainly, in '84, that simple, making that change by having Walter's name on it made a dramatic difference and took what it was at the time a solid regional program and gave it national prominence because of the name. And through a lot of people's work and through Walter's it grew where today we have a lot of wonderfully innovative digital programs focusing on the future of journalism and that hands-on approach that Walter thought was so important.
Ted Simons: He would be the first to say that journalism is hurting in a variety of ways. How are you and the school addressing that? Journalism goes on and right now, it's going on a bumpy road.
Chris Callahan: Absolutely, we're trying to do a two-prong approach. Holding the great values of traditional journalism that Walter exemplified for so long and trying to translate that into the future. How do you get out information in a digital age on multiple platforms and keeping students flexible. In the old days, you were a broadcast journalist, newspaper journalist. It was very segmented. What we're trying to do is teach our students how to communicate across all platforms.
Ted Simons: Indeed, and I think he would appreciate that very much because the stereotypical news anchor who can't write -- can't do that anymore?
Chris Callahan: That's right. Walter would describe himself as an old wires service guy.
Ted Simons: Journalism, is it healthier now than it was when Walter Cronkite was the most trusted man in America and used to get ratings and shares that management only dreams of now? Is it healthier now with all of those options?
Chris Callahan: Certainly, the business is not healthier now. The business model is under attack and that's what we really need to focus on. Changing the business model. What's worked well for decades does not now. That's something we need to change. I think it has the potential of being better than it ever was because there's all of these different voices and different ways to communicate. We need to harness and figure out ways for news companies to survive economically.

Eat + Drink: Flower Power
Fish's Evan Powell shares a bittersweet, Valentine's-ready cocktail recipe
Valentine's Day tends to stir up a wide range of emotions—giddy excitement, eye-rolling annoyance, and shrugs of apathy. So it makes sense that for those who intend to imbibe on such a holiday, a cocktail should reflect the full spectrum of feelings.
The rosy, effervescent Cupid's Cup, created by Evan Powell of Fish, accurately celebrates this most bittersweet event. Starting with Nolet's Silver Gin—a clean, botanically-based spirit with hints of raspberry, peach, and rose petals—the cocktail finishes with the slight tartness of brandy-soaked cherries and Aperol. Playing off the rosy sweetness of the gin's raspberry and rose notes, Powell also pulls in the unexpected touch of edible, syrup-soaked hibiscus flowers—perfect for a holiday that seems to revolve around blooms.
"This is a drink that appeals to everyone," says Powell. "It's refreshing and cleanses the palate." He adds that the yummy wild hibiscus syrup and tasty floral garnish is sure to impress, whether you're celebrating with friends or a significant other, although it does require preplanning. Powell recommends ordering the fragrant, canned, cocktail-ready flowers from wildhibiscus.com.
As the mixologist adjusts the drink's hibiscus "corsage," he adds that in cocktails, like love, "you have to take the bitter with the sweet. This drink is the perfect balance of those two, while still being very festive."
Cupid's Cup
- 1 wild hibiscus flower (wildhibiscus.com recommended)
- 3-4 brandy-soaked cherries, plus more for garnish
- 1 oz. Nolet's Silver gin
- 1/2 oz. Aperol
- Splash of soda water
- 1/2 oz. syrup from wild hibiscus flowers
Muddle one wild hibiscus flower and brandy-soaked cherries inside a double rocks or highball glass. Add ice, liquors, a splash of soda water, and syrup and toss inside a shaker. Strain into glass, and garnish with additional hibiscus flower "corsage" and cherries on a cocktail pick.

Posted: 5:34 p.m. Friday, March 8, 2013
By Christian Boone
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
A Roswell man who raped a woman during a home invasion was sentenced Thursday to seven consecutive life sentences plus 270 years.
Fulton County Superior Court Judge Alford Dempsey handed down the toughest sentence possible after defendant Tyler Grogan cursed him, saying, "I don't need to hear this (expletive)."
"You're going to sit here and listen to every word I've got to say," said Dempsey, according to Channel 2 Action News. "Whether you want to hear it or not Mr. Grogan, you're an animal."
Prosecutors say Grogan, 22, knocked on the door of the Aspen Pointe apartment where an acquaintance lived in May 2011. The acquaintance's brother answered the door, and Grogan drew his gun, demanding drugs.
He proceeded to pistol whip the male victim in the face, then stole several hundred dollars, prosecutors said. The victim's girlfriend, who was hiding in the closet, notified Roswell police, who quickly surrounded the apartment. Grogan attempted to escape, firing several shots at police before taking the man and woman hostage, according to court testimony.
Ten hours would pass, during which time Grogan cut a hole into a neighboring apartment, burrowing through the walls in a desperate attempt to outfox the phalanx of officers who had surrounded the complex.
He eventually freed the male hostage but kept the female prisoner, sexually assaulting her at gunpoint. She fled the apartment after the defendant fell asleep.
He was awakened by police, who stormed the apartment once both hostages were accounted for.
Grogan was convicted Wednesday of rape, aggravated sodomy, kidnapping, false imprisonment, armed robbery, aggravated assault, criminal damage to property and weapons violations.
His attorney, Kenneth Schatten, said Grogan had been haunted by demons ever since the 2009 murder of his mother.
Minka Grogan was killed by ex-boyfriend Calvin Myers in April 2009 after he crashed his car through the front wall of her Roswell apartment, where he proceeded to stab her 16 times and beat her with a landscaping rock. Myers later pleaded guilty to murder and other charges and was sentenced to life in prison.
Tyler Grogan's aunt, Anita Grogan, told the AJC in 2011 that her nephew grew "angry, confused (and) mad at the world" since his mother's death.

ESCANABA -- Car seats carry very precious cargo, but there are a few things parents should know when it comes to properly and safely installing them.
Last Saturday at Advance Auto Parts in Escanaba, Child Passenger Safety technicians gave parents and caregivers a quick lesson. They checked for recalls and made sure that none of the seats had been through a car crash.
The technicians estimated that 90 percent of all car seats are improperly installed. One common issue they found was that the seat harnesses weren't tight enough.
"Well, we want to make sure that once they buckle it in, that their seatbelt locks or they use the anchor system, depending on what they have in their car," said Child Passenger Safety Instructor Judy Pruner. "They need to read the owner's manual in the vehicle to find this out."
Children should sit in a car seat until they're eight years old unless they're over four feet nine inches tall.

Our death, or His?
(Tim, w/thanks to Taylor)
Wow. And Monty Python's "Upper Class Twit of the Year Olympics" was just a comedy skit and these blokes actually played it out for keeps.
We do not pull fire alarms in evangelicalism. We're embarrassed and scandalized by Hell, clueless about the Holiness of God, and rather covet our time in Satan's sauna and will fight anyone and offer any rationalization to defend our right to stew in it.
Luke 18:8 "...when the Son of Man comes will he find faith on the earth?"
I was preaching a couple of Sundays ago and finished (because my material was leading that way) by making some comments about Hell. Now, I live for feedback after anything I've preached, and normally get it - even if the feedback is critical - but this time I didn't get anything.
I would like to preach a longer and more thorough sermon on the topic, but I am not sure that I will get the opportunity.
This story gave me the icky/uncomfortable feeling I remember having as a child when my thoughts turned to eternity; I would lie awake thinking about people who I knew who didn't know Jesus and how if nobody told them the gospel they would inevitably end up under the fierce wrath of God. It's the same feeling I got reading Jesus' many warnings about outer darkness and later when I first read Edwards's "Sinners in the hands of an Angry God". This feeling causes my usual complacency with hell to evaporate. For the unbeliever who perishes his next sensations, body and soul, are no more to be compared to the madness of these men than a kiddy pool to the Atlantic. Thank you for such a visceral reminder.
I'm going to post here some comments from C.S. Lewis. He doesn't get everything right, but I can not read this without conviction:
(page down to the heading on Hell)
... The doctrine of hell, although barbarous to many, has the full support of Scripture, especially of our Lord's own words; and has always been held by Christendom. And it has the support of Reason: if a game is played it must be possible to lose it. If the happiness of a creature lies in voluntary self-surrender to God, it also has the right to voluntarily refuse.
I would pay any price to be able to say truthfully 'All will be saved'. But my reason retorts, 'Without their will, or with it'? In fact, God has paid the price, and herein lies the real problem: so much mercy, yet still there is hell.
God can't condone evil, forgiving the wilfully unrepentant. Lost souls have their wish – to live wholly in the Self, and to make the best of what they find there. And what they finds there is hell. Should God increase our chances to repent? I believe that if a million opportunities were likely to do good, they would be given. But finality has to come some time. Our Lord uses three symbols to describe hell – everlasting punishment (Matthew 25:46), destruction (Matthew 10:28), and privation, exclusion, banishment (Matthew 22:13). The image of fire illustrates both torment and destruction (not annihilation – the destruction of one thing issues in the emergence of something else, in both worlds). It may be feasible that hell is hell not from its own point of view, but from that of heaven. And it is also possible that the eternal fixity of the lost soul need not imply endless duration. Our Lord emphasises rather the finality of hell. Does the ultimate loss of a soul mean the defeat of Omnipotence? In a sense, yes. The damned are successful rebels to the end, enslaved within the horrible freedom they have demanded. The doors of hell are locked on the inside.
In the long run, objectors to the doctrine of hell must answer this question: What are you asking God to do? To wipe out their past sins, and at all costs to give them a fresh start, smoothing every difficulty, and offering every miraculous help? But he has done so – in the life and death of his Son. To forgive them? They will not be forgiven. To leave them alone? Alas, that is what he does. Hell, it must be remembered, is not only inhabited by Neros or Judas Iscariots or Hitlers. They were merely the principal actors in this rebellious drama.
You should look into the story one more time..half lies to make it worse..like it was a bloodbath huh..Valdimir belived in God..

Justin Timberlake Performs at Defunct NJ Club Maxwell's for a Target Commercial
By Jenn Pelly on August 29, 2013 at 09:52 a.m.
Following the VMAs, Justin Timberlake hung around the New York area long enough to create a bit more of a stir. As NJ.com reports, last night Timberlake showed up at the tiny, recently defunct club Maxwell's in Hoboken, New Jersey, to perform for the first 150 fans who showed up. (He announced the performance on Twitter.)
Justin Timberlake Responds to "Take Back the Night" Controversy
By Jenn Pelly on July 16, 2013 at 08:55 a.m.
Last week, when Justin Timberlake shared his new single "Take Back the Night", many people pointed out that the song shared its name with Take Back the Night, the organization that has worked to end violence against woman for decades.
Lawyers from Take Back the Night were quickly in touch with Timberlake regarding the song's title and themes. "The lyrics are definitely very sexual and not at all clearly anti-sexual violence," TBTN's Katherine Koestner told Radar. "'Use me,' for example, is not a great phrase for anyone affiliated with the organization."
Report: Justin Timberlake Live In Los Angeles
By Ian Cohen on February 11, 2013 at 06:00 p.m.
It was the first time he'd performed publicly in Los Angeles in more than five years, so it was natural to view Justin Timberlake's post-Grammys show at the Hollywood Palladium as an Event rather than just another promotional appearance for his upcoming album, The 20/20 Experience. The capacity crowd created a human fortress around the venue, all four adjacent city blocks crammed with fans shoulder-to-shoulder. (You could listen to the entirety of the newly released, eight-minute cut "Mirrors" without moving an inch in the line.) But once inside, what was initially striking was how much of a lowercase event this actually was, despite how a pair of tickets could fetch over $500 on Craigslist. Most people were far from being on their suit and tie shit, and those that were seemed to be CAA assistants guaranteed to be worthless the next morning. The rest were amongst the throngs of JT fans who just so happened to fork over $118 via Ticketmaster in the six or so minutes tickets were available.
Timberlake Explains Absence From Music
By Tom Breihan on June 15, 2011 at 11:05 a.m.
It's been nearly five years now since the release of FutureSex/LoveSounds, Justin Timberlake's still-awesome second solo album. But in the years since, Timberlake has largely stepped away from music, beyond the occasional solo show, guest appearance, or Lonely Island collaboration on "Saturday Night Live". Timberlake remains in the public eye, but he's focused his efforts on comedy and acting, showing up with increasing regularity on "SNL" and movies like The Social Network and Bad Teacher.
In a new Playboy interview, Timberlake talks about things like his enviable string of famous girlfriends and his love of weed. (He says he was stoned during his famous "Punk'd" appearance.) He also details his long absence from music and where he stands with recording:

News: Project "PB and J"
Tuesday, August 07, 2012 2:53 PM
Remington College's Fort Worth campus donates peanut butter and jelly to Mission Arlington.
The students in the National Technical Honor Society at Remington College - Fort Worth Campus decided to collect jars of peanut butter and jelly - 108 jars to be exact - to donate to the mission to assist us in caring for the more than 1,000 people who come through our front doors every day.
The college asked their studets to imgie what it would be like for a child participating in a summer sport who has not had breakfast or lunch. A simple peanut butter and jelly sandwich will go along way towards helping that child's stamina, physical energy, ad enjoyment of the activity.
The Mission Arlington family is so grateful for this support, and for the partnership.
Working together like this, we can truly make a difference in the lives of our community's children.

Dear Irish 2000 Festival Supporters -

NYS Ancient Order of Hibernians feat. MacTalla Mor in Benefit Concert in Seaford
The New York State Ancient Order of Hibernians (AOH) will present MacTalla Mor in a benefit concert at 8 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 16, in the auditorium of Maria Regina School, 4045 Jerusalem Ave., Seaford.
Tickets are $20 per person, with tables of 10 available. Proceeds will be used to assist local AOH divisions to fund delegates to the 2008 National Convention in New Orleans. MacTalla Mor, Irish for "Great Echo", features the great highland bagpipes, piano, vocals and bodhran in a dynamic mix of traditional Celtic roots, rock, hip hop, Calypso and fusion.
MacTalla's ancient and modern instruments –with their Irish and original songs – bring the past to life. They create a powerful experience for audiences of all ages in what has been called "Celtic Music for the Masses".
MacTalla Mor has shared the stage with such Celtic greats as Cherish the Ladies, Tommy Makem, Eileen Ivers and Gaelic Storm. They have performed with Mitch Ryder & the Detroit Wheels, Commander Cody, the Tito Puente Big Band, Jon Faddis and Arturo Sandoval and have played command performances for José Feliciano, the Average White Band and Rolling Stone's Keith Richards.
For more information, or to order tickets, call NYS AOH Treasurer Jim Burke at 516-799-5153 or e-mail email@example.com.
To reach Maria Regina School, take the Southern State Parkway to Exit 29, Hicksville Road (Route 107). Proceed ¾ mile south on Hicksville Road to Jerusalem Avenue. Turn right on Jerusalem and the school is ¼ mile on the right side of Jerusalem Avenue.
About the AOH
The Ancient Order of Hibernians is the oldest Catholic lay organization in America. Officially formed in New York in 1836, it was organized centuries earlier in Ireland for the purpose of defending Gaelic values and protecting the Catholic Church and its clergy. Although the name AOH can only be traced back to 1641, the organization can claim continuity of purpose and its motto, "Friendship, Unity, and True Christian Charity", back to the organization known as the Defenders of 1565.
The AOH in America is organized into divisions, county boards, and state boards, and is governed by a national board. Annual dances, concerts and parades sponsored by all levels of the AOH raise millions for charity, while providing a showcase for the positive contributions of the Irish to every walk of American life.

Sony NWZ-S616F Walkman Video MP3 Player
As portable music players get smaller and smaller, manufacturers are paradoxically trying to incorporate as many features into them as possible. The big question is: can they sustain all the functionality and still offer the quality you'd expect for the price? A good example that will help us answer that question is the Sony NWZ-S616F Walkman Video MP3 Player.
Form Factor
When it comes to the design of a music player, personally I'll admit I'm a stickler for style. But looks aren't everything. The Sony NWZ-S616F is quite a neat looking device with a superbly clear 1.8 inch QVGA display sporting a 240 x 320 pixel resolution. It has a 3.5mm earphone socket on the top of the player, a hold switch for the keypad on one side, and volume controls on the other. For charging and PC connectivity Sony uses a proprietary connector located at the bottom.
What I liked most abut the 616F is the simplicity in the navigation controls. A single button for returning to a previous menu, a sub-menu key for accessing additional features in different modes, and a five-way nav-pad that's large enough for my fat fingers to use with ease. It's also quite a slim player at about 11mm and weighs a measly 50 grams. Users will have no problem carrying this baby around.
The NWZ-S616F is quite the little do-it-all PMP. From video to radio and images and a load of music-centric options, it's guaranteed to make your music experience more interesting. To start off, the interface and menus are large and clear, and the navigation is as smooth as a hot knife though butter. Feature-wise the 616F has a JPEG or image viewer, and with the resolution it has, the images look brilliant. Users have the option of viewing the images in a slideshow format, but that's nothing new. It's compatible with DCF 2.0/Exif 2.2 file formats.
The FM radio reception is really quite good. In Auto Preset mode, depending on the scan sensitivity you opt for, it takes the 616F no more than 15-20 seconds to locate and save all the available channels. Of course, you can't expect crystal-clear reception while commuting, but in most places you'll have no issues whatsoever.
Here's where I have a tiny problem with the 616F: its video player. Don't get me wrong, playback is clear and smooth as it's compatible with MPEG 4 or M4V profiles at 30 frames per second. Firstly, Sony doesn't provide you with a bundled video converter which would have made things so much more convenient, and secondly, it's not easy to watch a full length video (even a 20-minute TV serial) on such a small screen. Even with its clarity, it tends to take a toll on your eyes after 10 minutes or so.
Of course, you can always download a converter. There's no shortage of these online and they let you watch short clips – including those you may have captured with your phone cam. I don't recommend using the 616F for viewing widescreen videos. If you stretch them to 4:3 they look a bit... stretched. But only a little bit. If their 16:9 ratio is retained you'll end up with a tiny image and black bands on the display. (As if it wasn't small enough already!)
Without further ado let's get down to the main feature, its music capabilities. The best part is the array of options Sony has graciously provided to enhance the player's music playback. A unique shuffle feature randomly selects a particular year and start playing files from there. There's also an initial search feature that locates tracks by searching for the first letter of the track name or artist.
Among others, the 616F has three of Sony's Clear Audio Technologies incorporated:
- DSEE (Digital Sound Enhancement Engine) that restores the higher sound frequency lost when creating compressed music files.
- Clear Bass that enhances the bass sound while minimizing distortion, and
- Clear Stereo that helps reduce signal leakage from one channel to another.
On the whole, I was more than satisfied with the music playback. It was loud and clear without any need to max the volume. In noisy environments you can just sit back and leave the rest of the planet behind. And trust me, you'll have no need to change the bundled earphones as they're quite comfy to use; even after prolonged usage they won't hurt your ears. The device is compatible with MP3, WMA, AAC-LC and Linear PCM file formats.
Another impressive feature is the battery life. I left the player running at full volume and it clocked a little over 12 hours. That's not bad at all. Even when it comes to video playback you'll be able to squeeze out 5-6 hours, which easily translates to three movies/videos. My eyes still ache. The sacrifices we make for the sake of testing...
The Bottomline
The NWZ-S616F is a brilliant player. It looks good, sounds good, and has a more than decent battery life. My only problem, as I said before, is that the display is too small for watching movies. And at Rs 7990 for 4GB of space, this PMP lacks a voice/FM radio recording feature and there's no bundled video converter. It's a PMP for those who are true connoisseurs of sound and who are not willing to compromise on the same, regardless of price. In simple terms: like music, go buy!

The Architecture 249 11.3 the arChIteCture Thesystemsarchitecture(Figure 11.1) identifies the value chain, the criti- cal dimensions of the health-care system, and the way it relates users to providers in the health-care system. In order to create an architecture that will realize the expectations and desires of Butterworth's stakeholders, the designers recognized the necessity of employing a multidimensional scheme. Such an architecture is intended not only to dissolve the existing "mess" but also to transcend it by developing a vision of the next genera- tion of a health-care system. The architecture represents a platform from which Butterworth's dis- tinctive value chain will evolve. The value chain identifies all of the ele- ments of the health-care system and their relationships along a market dimension(accessandcaresystems),anoutputdimension(healthdeliv- ery modules), and an input dimension (core knowledge and shared services). This multidimensional framework not only helps the designers understand and differentiate each component of the system, but also establishes the components' relationships in such a way that an inte- grated and cohesive whole can emerge.

There are two ways to extend a business. Take inventory of what you're good at and extend out from your skills. Or determine what your customers need and work backward, even if it requires learning new skills. Kindle is an example of working backward.

LGBTQ* Insight, Education and Ally Conversations
From Oregon State
— Roommate Questions/Answers (You may want to pass this on to RAs in conversation)
In the residence halls
In a residence hall environment, we interact daily with a wide variety of people. Statistics have shown that at least 10% of the general population consider themselves to be lesbian or gay, and many more consider themselves to be bisexual. It is very likely that you will meet individuals who are gay, lesbian, bisexual, or transgender (LGBT) during your time at OSU. This page was developed to hopefully answer some of the questions you may have. Remember, you may ask these questions of your Residence Life staff as well.
Why do they flaunt their sexuality?
"What people do in their own bedrooms is their own business, but I saw two guys walking across campus holding hands."
One of the worst forms of oppression for a human being is to be denied emotional expression. Curiously, it is called "expressing love" when heterosexuals hold hands, but "flaunting" when LGBT people express their love. How would heterosexuals react if they could not hold hands, kiss, dance together, go to romantic dinners, or be married? LGBT people who are open with their affections are not trying to shock others, but are just doing what is natural to them and others.
What should I do if a friend tells me that he or she is gay? What does that say about me?
Most LGBT people who "come out" would like the same sincere acceptance and encouragement you might want when you tell a friend something special about yourself. Because of many people's "homophobic" attitude (fear and derision of same sex relationships), many gays are afraid of rejection from their friends. You might first honestly ask yourself how you feel about this news and then discuss it as a caring friend.
Some people who find out a close friend is LGBT wonder "What does that mean about me?" This is a natural reaction. What it probably means is that your friend trusts you very much. However, liking someone gay does not make you gay any more than liking someone smart makes you smart.
If my roommate "comes out" to me, does that mean that he or she thinks that I'm gay too?
There is a big difference between "coming out" and "coming on." As discussed above, most gay people who come out want to be accepted, not hassled. Sometimes a gay person might "come on" to you, tell you they are attracted to you, or want an intimate relationship with you. You can handle it in the same manner that you would handle a heterosexual approach. Gay love is as serious and legitimate as heterosexual love. Again, you should discuss it with your friend.
If I accept my LGBT roommate, will he or she bring in lots of LGBT friends and push me out?
A formerly taboo subject will be out in the open. You may feel uncomfortable from a lack of experience dealing with gay people who are not "closeted." The LGBT friends should respect non-LGBT people just as LGBT people expect to be respected. Visits by LGBT folks are a good opportunity to learn about this large and diverse segment of the population. However, be cautious about presuming that all your roommate's friends are LGBT. His or her best friends may be straight.
Won't my friends or parents think I'm gay if I have a gay roommate or friend or defend equal rights?
Defending equal rights for gays is often a courageous stance to take. Some people may conclude that such a person has a vested interest to do so. It is up to you whether you feel that the people you are defending are worth the risk of occasional accusations or assumptions by others. Remember that a word from heterosexual friends and allies in defense or support of gay rights can go a long way to help change people's minds.
Now that I know my roommate is gay, I don't feel comfortable about nudity, dressing, showering, etc.
More than likely, you have been living together long enough to trust each other. There is no reason for the trust to diminish now. Your roommate has been gay or lesbian all along! Bear in mind that gays are not always comfortable with non-gays, either. Gay people, just like straight people, are attracted to certain types of folks. Most gays and lesbians are not sexually interested in heterosexuals, just as the reverse is true.
Reblogging mainly to say thank you for my lovely Jilly, who knew all of this instinctively.

T.G.I.F. - Larry Lurex
In 1972 Queen was at Trident Studios recording their first album. There they met music engineer Robin Cable. Cable wanted to experiment with the "Phil Spector
Wall of Sound
" recording style. He got Freddie to be the lead vocalist. Freddie brought in Roger Taylor and Brian May. They recorded two songs. Of course there are no videos for either song and I doubt Queen ever played them live. Below are the best audio versions I could find. I kind of like Going Back. Freddie sounds awfully young.

Christian Vietoris took a lights-to-flag victory in the GP2 finale at Monza, while Luca Filippi sealed second in the championship with fifth place.
Vietoris jumped into the lead from third on the grid at the start, as he and Fabio Leimer got ahead of pole-sitter Jules Bianchi. From there, the top two pulled away in the early laps. They fell back into the clutches of Bianchi and Sam Bird when Vietoris had to defend for a couple of laps, but as he opened out a small margin over Leimer they were both able to get away from the chasing pack again.
Bianchi could do nothing about the leaders and instead had to turn his attentions to keeping Bird and Filippi at bay. Bird dropped back during the last couple of laps, while Filippi recovered from going straight on at the first chicane to set fastest lap and earn an extra point. That put him clear of Bianchi in the standings, but the Italian was on course for second even if they tied on points because he has more race wins.
Of the other contenders for second, Charles Pic's race lasted only two corners as he collided with Filippi at the start and ran over the back of Romain Grosjean's car. Filippi escaped relatively unscathed, while Grosjean rejoined two laps down with a new rear wing to complete his final GP2 race.
Giedo van der Garde climbed from 21st to 14th, completing a miserable end to the season which cost him the runner-up spot to Grosjean.

Should GHenerate be cycled? There is no info on the LG Sciences website or Nutraplanet.
im bout to start my 3rd str8 bottle of it,and into my second of i-gh-1.just make sure you follow the 5 days on 2 off and you should fine
I didn't know about the 5 on 2 off. Been on for about a week, so tomorrow I'll start the off.
You can really just keep going on the stuff with the 5 / 2? I'm still a little worried about shutting my own GH down.
I'll be doing 5/2 for probably two bottles, then take a month or so off.
That is not how it works, it simply promotes a much larger release of GH than what your body naturally produces. People who use synthetic GH still get a natural GH release and there is no difference with using a product like Ghenerate. There are diminishing returns over time but that is due to the body adapting to the ingredients in Ghenerate; not your GH release being suppressed. I am going to run Ghenerate 5 on/2 off for 3 bottles before I take off. On bottle 2 and still get great recovery and sleep.
If my direct and cynical approach bothers you, just ignore it. I'm just saying what you need to hear ;).

There is something imperious about driving a Land Rover Range Rover.
You sit far above mere mortals in a vehicle that weighs nearly three tonnes with an occupant or two aboard.
There is the knowledge that the vehicle is able to ford a 69-cm-deep stream, climb any object, and go anywhere. Yet you are surrounded by rich, soft leather, real wood, and the air of an exclusive club.
It is a special, and fairly exclusive vehicle, partly because of the name and a price on the wrong side of $100,000.
Kudos to Tata, the Indian owners, for maintaining the 'Britishness' of the Range Rover and providing the funds to allow the company to upgrade this treasure, bringing it into the current century with an all-new and significantly lighter version coming for the 2013 model year.
I just spent a week with the current model, which received several upgrades for 2012 including updated switchgear, an improved navigation system and a power tailgate — which was inoperative in the test vehicle.
The Range Rover comes in HSE, HSE Luxury, Supercharged and Autobiography trim levels. The tester was the Supercharged version with 20-inch alloy wheels, an infotainment system that includes an awesome-sounding 380-watt Harmon/Kardon audio setup with 11 speakers, and video screens built into the backs of the leather front seat head restraints.
As befits a luxury SUV at the top of its game and class, it also had a simple-to-operate Bluetooth connectivity, full-colour touchscreen system with navigation and back-up camera displays, and Oxford leather seats with contrasting stitching.
But aside from all the visual stuff, what made this Range Rover such a treat was the 510-horsepower, supercharged V8 engine. This 5.0-litre power plant, shared with Jaguar, is a jewel with gobs of low end grunt, a mellow bellow under full throttle and a deep bass at idle. Paired with a six-speed automatic and the ability to get all that power to the ground through four wheels, the result is a big SUV that feels a lot smaller and lighter than it measures.
The most powerful Range Rover ever created has 25 per cent more horsepower and 20 per cent more torque than the 4.4-litre bent eight used previously, yet uses less fuel than that smaller engine. That is a comparative blessing, because 5,500 pounds and the aerodynamics of a bungalow are not conducive to hybrid-like fuel economy numbers. Suffice it to say, fuel consumption is in the double digits unless you are going downhill or have a tail wind.
You can tell the Supercharged Range Rover apart from its lesser siblings by a unique grill surround, mesh fender vents, body-colored door handles, a pair of big chrome exhaust outlets and nine-spoke, 20-inch wheels through which you will see a set of Brembo brake calipers.
The Supercharged Range Rover also comes with steering wheel mounted shift paddles, 'Adaptive Dynamics with Dynamic Program' and 'Dynamic Response,' which adjusts the vehicle's settings automatically for more control and comfort on or off-road. If you are into off-roading or get cut off from humanity by a mud slide or flood, there are enough suspension and drive-system settings to suit any imaginable condition.
I got as far as three metres off road when turning around after missing a side street. I did notice, though, an impressively short turning circle. The thought of scratching the glossy paint or shiny chrome will likely prevent 99.9 per cent of Range Rover owners from sampling the brawny abilities this beast offers.
The big brute is at home on the open road where the elaborate suspension soaks up imperfections like logs, ditches, or speed bumps as though they did not exist. Seriously, the air suspension is remarkable, if not brilliant. You can press a button to lower the vehicle from its normal ride height of 23 cm so passengers can get in without a stool or raise it to 28 cm for off-road work. The Terrain Response system has settings for Rock Crawl, Mud and Ruts, Sand, Grass/Gravel/Snow and 'Standard' offroading.
Gaining access to the sumptuous interior requires quite a climb. Similarly, dismounting is a decent drop to Mother Earth unless you stop at the running boards on the way. As mentioned previously, the seating position — from any position — is way up there. The squared-off shape, low belt line and abundance of glass makes for unbeatable visibility in all directions. There is seating for five with lots of head and legroom in all positions. The cargo area provides 958 litres of space with the rear seats in place and 2,013 litres when down.
Nobody will consider the Supercharged Range Rover a bargain.
But quality and exclusivity rarely are.

(By Balaseshan) Sucampo Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: SCMP) said it has received U.S. regulatory approval of a supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) for Rescula (unoprostone isopropyl) to lower intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
Sucampo intends to commercialize Rescula in the first quarter of 2013. Open-angle glaucoma is the most common form of glaucoma.
According to the approved product labeling, Rescula may be used as a first-line agent or concomitantly with other topical ophthalmic drug products to lower intraocular pressure. Rescula is a BK (Big Potassium) channel activator, which is different from other IOP lowering agents.
[Related -Top Insider Purchases: ACAD, FCX, CLMS, EPZM, GHDX, SCMP]
Unoprostone isopropyl is a member of Sucampo's family of prostones and is a synthetic docosanoid. Unoprostone isopropyl may have a local effect on BK (Big Potassium) channels in the eye.
BK channels are expressed in contractile tissues like the trabecular meshwork. Rescula may reduce elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) by increasing the outflow of aqueous humor through the trabecular meshwork.
Rescula was originally approved by the FDA in 2000 for the lowering of IOP in open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension in patients who are intolerant of or insufficiently responsive to other IOP lowering medications.
In April 2009, Sucampo acquired the commercialization rights to Rescula for the United States and Canada from R-Tech Ueno Ltd. (RTU).
SCMP closed Tuesday's regular session up 6.65% at $4.97. The stock has been trading between $3.78 and $8.50 for the past 52 weeks.
