2.1 Models of disability Disability is discussed more frequently now than it was even a single generation ago. You may have come across 'political correctness' debates in the media in which the terms used to describe diverse groups of people are discussed. In this short activity, we ask you to read about models of disability and guidance on terminology. You will also be asked to revisit your list of challenging activities from the 'Accessibility and disability' activity and to update it if necessary.
1.2.2 Usability The second factor is good practice. In general terms, and business terms, it is good practice to make a product available to as wide a market as possible. A design that incorporates the requirements for disabled students is likely to be more accessible and useful for non-disabled students than a design without such consideration. One example would be a user interface that is usable by a blind person will also be usable by a person whose eyes are busy (for example people who are doing a task t
3 The challenge of change …although we may be striving to turn a profession that has the inertia of a supertanker, as individuals each of us is a speed boat that can turn on a dime… (Pate and Hohn (1994), p. 217) The American authors of the quote above suggest that PE needs to change so that it places primary emphasis on the promotion of lifelong exercise. However, they consider that this could be slow and difficult
1. Efficient brain performance Two sources of fuel are particularly important to ensure a healthy and efficiently functioning brain – oxygen and water. Fortunately, in many countries, both of these are in ready supply! Many schools in the UK are already beginning to recognise the need for students (and their brains) to be sufficiently hydrated, and have installed water-coolers at strategic points. Oxygen is easier to supply, but sitting down for a typical 50-minute lesson could decrease the amount of oxygen delivered to
3.5 Issues of capability Very occasionally, issues about the capability of the headteacher may arise during discussions about performance against agreed objectives. If the appointed performance review governors suspect that the headteacher is not able to meet his/her objectives, they should first consider the circumstances of the school to satisfy themselves that these have not altered significantly to make the objective/s unachievable. If this is the case, they should make necessary allowances when monitoring
Learning outcomes After studying this unit you should: be able to explain what is meant by the term 'the global dimension'; be familiar with the terminology used in relation to the global dimension; know why the inclusion of the global dimension in the primary school curriculum is important; know how the global dimension can enhance the primary school curriculum; be able to plan the global dimension into the secondary curriculum.
1.5 Reductionist skill-based approach versus whole-language: English language 5–14 Ellis and Friel identify a number of concerns in relation to the 5–14 Guidelines for English: English Language 5–14 presented a welcome return to a focus on the content of language teaching. However, unless sympathetically interpreted, it presents a skills-based and reductionist model of language which does not capture and promote the rich model that underpins best practice in Scottish schools.

What are you trying to achieve with this teaching unit - what are your aims? What activities do you wish the learners to engage with in order to demonstrate or achieve those aims - what are the learning objectives or outcomes and how are they to be assessed? How will you evaluate the effectiveness of what you have produced? In the light of the ev Introduction This unit looks at the pedagogical issues involved in the creation and selection of self-study educational resources for a set of intended learning outcomes as exemplified here on OpenLearn. It is a unit about writing a unit. Although it considers the way that people at The Open University set about writing open-learning materials, it will not focus specifically on the University's particular production system. Nor does it look deeply at the technical issues involved in producing certain ty References 3 Sharing information If all governors are not involved in monitoring there must be procedures through which all are kept informed. Creese and Earley (1999). The role of the governor has changed considerably in recent years: there is a genuine need to know and understand the school much better, from the point of view of its performance and development priorities. At the same time, all governors have other commitment 4 Using data to set targets Target-setting will take place on a number of levels … but ultimately it should affect individual pupils. (Creese and Earley, 1999) As mentioned earlier, it is unlikely that the governing body will actually set the targets. The headteacher will have worked with the staff, drawing on a range of evidence including benchmarking information and consulting the teachers, who keep comprehensive reco References 3. Statutory responsibilities In broad terms, the statutory responsibilities that support the main objective of raising standards in the school cover the following areas: agreeing the aims of the school and ensuring that supporting policies are in place; ethos and discipline; the provision of an appropriate curriculum; staffing and related pay issues; managing the budget; setting targets for pupil 1.3.1 Teaching global science Science draws on a rich cultural heritage and continues to be a global endeavour. How can you bring global science to life for your students? Activity 3 will help to bring a global perspective to your science curriculum.

No answer is wrong, but merely representative of different cultural perceptions. 'All that I can say about my method in writing music for films is that it is intensely personal. I work completely emotionally. I cannot intellectualize about the role of music in film. I decide if it should be there purel 1.4.

Ok, so I played ofp for years and also played arma1 (8+ hrs aday) from launch till Arma2. I've been playing Arma2 sporadically since launch. RPGs and coops have taken over, with some WFs mixed in along the way every now and again (i'm talking populated servers). Every now and again there will be a c&h or a&s hosted by euro servers... Meaning if you're a u.s. based player your SOL if you want to play c&h or a&s maps/gamemodes, bad ones at that.. no offense to anyone.With the exception of the one euro server hosting the PR maps every now and again... PR was good.
I remember playing c&h all throughout arma1.Berzerk was by far the most sophisticated and polished c&h ever created for arma1 or arma2 (vahalla a close second). It was simply heads and shoulders above the rest of the neanderthal c&h's created by moderately talented scripters who simply gave us the base fundamentals of the game mode, and nothing more.Zaphod took c&h to a whole new level with berzerk.Berzerk was basically like playing BF on steroids and ultra realism.Wich, I never cared for BF as a whole, the maps were/are tiny, and had unrealistic mehcanics but i did like the ideas and concepts behind their game modes.And when combined with Armed Assault was like a dream come true for me and many others who liked to hop into random PUB servers and have fun in style... instead of boring c&hs with non existent UIs and bad maps .. yeah i said it!! I like snazzy, polished UIs!!! Z did all of the little things that others wouldn't OR more like couldn't do, to make an phenominal c&h gamemode.
Nowadays, if I want pvp in a pure (without AI) form, the closest thing I have are the various RPGS, with loud and obnoxious teenagers arguing with the ultra serious role players on the ingame voip, wich I turn off asap. The RPGs are fine and dandy, but not my cup of tea as far as playing a mil sim for pure pvp action.
BOHEMIA please make a polished, sophisticated c&h and/or a&s gamemodes to help spark some pure pvp action globally.Lets get a newly found player base in pure pvp form kind of like the COOP DayZ is now.Thanks.

The damage has been done and now the recovery effort begins. A line of severe storms caused significant problems across the Southern Tier Thursday afternoon. Our Bill Mich joined us from Elmira, where much of the worst damage was reported.
SOUTHERN TIER, N.Y. – A State of Emergency has been delcared in Chemung County and a State of Emergency and curfew are in effect in Elmira after a line of severe storms caused significant damage in the area.
The storm swept through the Southern Tier Thursday afternoon, bringing down trees and power lines and blowing the roofs off some buildings. There are reports a tornado may have touched down, with many residents saying they saw a funnel cloud, but that has not yet been confirmed by the National Weather Service.
The Chemung County Emergency Management office says a curfew is in place, running from 8 p.m. Thursday through 8 a.m. Friday. They've also issued a Travel Advisory for the entire county.
Officials also ask that residents to stay off the phones and only call 911 in emergencies.
Residents we spoke with say they were shocked by the damage caused in such a short time frame.
The Red Cross has opened an emergency shelter at the Elmira Free Academy on Hoffman Street. It's able to accommodate about 100 people.
Chemung County Executive Tom Santulli has issued a Travel Advisory for all of Chemung County. At this time, Sheriff Christopher Moss and Emergency Management Director Michael Smith are assessing the damage of the storm throughout the County. The City of Elmira experienced significant damage with many trees and power lines are down. Numerous car accidents have also been reported. Residents are encouraged to stay indoors and off the roads for their safety while emergency crews clear the roads.

Importing the flavours of Naples to Camps Bay and serving them up with some of the best views in Cape Town, Da Luigi is the perfect place to kick back and enjoy our homely atmosphere and stunning Italian fare. Located on the tree-lined Camps Bay beach-front, watch the sun spill its ever fluctuating hue over the early-evening waves like an over-eager paint-slinger and peruse the menu for a dish or two that tickles your fancy.
Using only the freshest local and imported ingredients, it's not just the authentic wood-firing and home-cooking feel that makes Luigi's food so tasty – though, of course, they both help. ) The pizzas come in a variety of tongue-twisting flavours like Qauttro Stagioni and Incazzata which will leave your heart and taste buds yelling grazie, and molto gustoso. Not to be outdone by their flat-breaded cousins, the pastas are equally unpronounceable for those who don't live in the land of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and just as gustoso. Choose from such fresh, saucy delights as Tagliolini Sciue Sciue or Linguine Amatriciana and don't worry if you flub the pronunciation; you don't have to speak the language to enjoy the food.
Of course, one of the most difficult decisions that needs to be made when dining out Italian-style is whether to get the pizza or the pasta, because both are a classic and it almost feels like an insult to only order one. Luckily, with today's Groupon, you can get both.
Pasta Fact: The largest portion of Spaghetti Bolognaise ever eaten was during a scrabble-tournament in the early 1930's. Zsa Zsa Gabor ordered the equivalent of 11 bags of pasta while playing her championship game against an anonymous opponent, known simply as The Rubber Window.

A 34-year-old man who was out walking Monday night in Hanover had his cell phone stolen by another man who displayed a pocket knife and demanded the phone, police said.
The incident occurred in the 1100 block of Carlisle Street just after 8 p.m., and the victim, who was not identified by police, was walking on a traffic-way to the rear of several businesses, police said. The 1100 block runs from Radio Road to Eisenhower Drive, but police did not specify in a news release where the robbery took place.
Police said the man who was robbed, who is from Hanover, was walking when the other man began to follow him, asking several times to use the victim's cell phone. When the victim denied the requests, the robber displayed a pocket knife, police said.
The victim then gave up his cell phone, and the robber ran away, heading south. Police said the victim was not harmed during the incident and walked home where he contacted the police.
The robber is described as a white male, in his late teens or early 20s, 5 feet, 8 inches tall, 160 pounds with a slender build, short brown hair and clean shaven. The suspect was wearing a red ball hat with a white letter "B" on it. He also had on a white sleeveless muscle shirt and was wearing blue jeans that were worn extremely low allowing the his underwear to be very visible.
Anyone having information or who might have been in the area during this incident is asked to contact the Hanover Borough Police Department at 717-637-5575 or through York County 911. Information can also be supplied through CrimeStoppers of York County at 755-TIPS or 1-800-722-0991.

Witnesses say dozens of passengers were swept away in strong currents.
Assam home commissioner Jishnu Barua said 90 people have been rescued from the river. At least 68 bodies have been recovered and more than 130 passengers remain missing. Rescue teams are still at the scene searching for survivors.
"Army, Border Security Force and other rescue teams with mechanized boats have moved to the site but nightfall and bad weather are hampering rescue efforts," Assam state chief minister Tarun Gogoi told AFP.

More than 50 million children across America returned to school this fall, a good thing, so now is a good time to consider how much we spend on public education and whether we're getting good value for that money. This big-picture view is disheartening.
How much does K-12 public education in America cost? One way to answer that is to look at direct taxpayer expenditures on education. In July, the National Center for Education Statistics reported that the average per-student expenditure in public schools was $8,310 in the 2003-04 school year. State's per-student expenditures ranged from a high of $13,338 in New Jersey to a low of $4,991 in Utah.
Altogether, spending on all elementary and secondary education topped more than $500 billion in 2003-04, or about 4.7 percent of the entire economy as measured by GDP. The U.S. spends more on K-12 education than the Philippines, Saudi Arabia, or Sweden spends on everything.
Based on the most recent per-pupil expenditure figures, the average student enrolled in public school for the next 12 years can expect to have about $100,000 spent on his or her education.
And what we are getting for all that money? Despite this considerable investment, many students will not receive a quality education. More than a quarter of all eighth-grade students scored "below basic" in reading on the 2005 NAEP exam, which by the government's definition means that they are not able to "demonstrate a literal understanding of what they read" and "make some interpretations."
In Oklahoma a full 28 percent of eighth-grade students scored "below basic" in reading. Nationally, one in five eighth-graders scored "below basic" in math.
In Oklahoma nearly two in five eighth-graders scored "below basic."
Poor test scores are just one bit of evidence of widespread underperformance. According to the Department of Education, the national high school graduation rate is 73 percent, and some researchers argue that even this estimate is too generous. Whatever the exact number, it is disturbing that so many American students fail to earn a high school degree.
Failure to graduate comes at a substantial cost. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the average full-time worker who did not graduate from high school earns $23,400 annually, versus $30,000 for a high school graduate. That's a 29 percent pay cut. And an average full-time worker with a bachelor's degree earns $52,200 per year -- or more than twice as much as the average high school dropout.
The Census Bureau projects that a high school dropout who works full time will earn $1 million over his or her lifetime, while a high school graduate will earn $1.2 million. A college graduate can expect to earn $2.1 million. Clearly, education pays, and stopping short can be expensive.
Another growing cost of our failing public education system is remediation, which is the burden that other institutions like colleges and businesses shoulder to help people develop the basic skills they should have learned in primary or secondary school.
The Department of Education reported that 100 percent of all community colleges and 81 percent of four-year colleges offer remediation. The Mackinac Center for Public Policy estimates that remediation costs colleges and business in just the state of Michigan approximately $600 million per year.
If the other 49 states and the District of Columbia are anything like Michigan, the country spends tens of billions of dollars each year making up for public schools' shortcomings. And then there are the opportunity costs of public education. An opportunity cost, as economists define it, is the benefit forgone by choosing a particular course of action, as opposed to an alternative. How much stronger would the American economy be if the billions spent on public education actually bought our 50 million schoolchildren a high-quality education?
And what about the toll the current education system levies on the lives of the children it disserves? No dollar figure can make up for a lifetime without even a basic education.
Politicians and lawmakers tend to get mired in the details of legislation and so rarely step back and look at the big picture. We won't see widespread improvements in American education until we as taxpayers begin to recognize the costs of the current American education system and demand something better.

From Brunswick to southern New Hampshire in less than sixty seconds.
If you've ever driven on Route 1 between Brunswick and Bath, you might have noticed a road sign that seems a tad . . . out of place. Amid the green and white billboards for Bowdoin College, Orrs Island, and the Brunswick Naval Air Station, there's one sign that doesn't belong. It says, simply: "Southern N.H. University."
Now, Brunswick happens to be more than seventy-five miles from Maine's southern border, and as far as we know there is not some magical rabbit hole that transports you to Portsmouth. So what the heck is this sign doing here?
Well, the answer is just as it appears: The sign is pointing you toward a branch of Southern New Hampshire University located at the Brunswick Naval Air Station. Most Mainers have never heard of the fully accredited, private university. But since 1976, when it first arrived in Brunswick, the college has served nine thousand
graduate and undergraduate students. Of the nearly three hundred students enrolled each year, 34 percent report having found the school through its discombobulating signage (there are two signs posted on Route 1 and two on I-295).
So why is a Granite State university in Maine?
"It's all oral tradition, told from one director to another," explains the school's current director, Bo Yerxa, a Bridgewater, Maine, native who served as a dean at the Washington County Community College and held other educational positions prior to his current post. He says that in the seventies, a commander of the Brunswick Naval Air Station reached out to Maine educational institutions to inquire about starting a continuing adult education program for sailors, marines, and their families. No Maine schools responded. But while attending a ceremony at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, the commander learned about a similar program being run by then New Hampshire College at Pease Air Force Base. Within a few months, New Hampshire College had started offering courses in Brunswick.
In 2001 the college changed its name to Southern New Hampshire University. By that time, civilians made up a majority of the student body. (This arrangement proved a problem for the school after 9/11 when the base was closed to everyone but authorized personnel; the university was forced to open a new building at Cooks Corner). The curious signs went up along the highway in 2005, when Yerxa put in a call to the Maine Department of Transportation. That's the reason so many Mainers are just learning about the college.
So the next time you pass a sign directing you to this curiously located New Hampshire higher-learning institution, there's no need to double-check your map. You're not headed down the rabbit hole, although you might well be lost.
Pen Bay has been a summer destination for precisely four hundred years.
On July 18, 1609, the famous English explorer Henry Hudson set foot on the New World for the first time — and that foot was probably somewhere on the shore of Penobscot Bay.
"There is no archaeological evidence of where he may have come ashore," says Bill Underwood, a tourism consultant from Springvale promoting the anniversary celebration. "I think it's pretty clear from my research of the logs that Henry Hudson did in fact go into Penobscot Bay."
The coast of Maine was a brief stop on the Dutch-commissioned journey aboard the Half Moon to discover the ultimately then nonexistent Northwest Passage to Asia. Along the way, Hudson stumbled upon what would become Manhattan Island and the river named in his honor. (From a Mainer's standpoint this is what we call an anticlimax.) The logs maintained by ship's mate Robert Juet (and reprinted in Sailors Narratives of Voyages along the New England Coast published in 1905) do not cite a specific Maine location, but they are highly suggestive of the landing place: The seventeenth, was all mysties, so that we could not get into the harbour . . . the eighteenth, faire weather, wee went into a very good harbour . . . we went on shore and cut us a fore mast; then at noone we came aboord againe, and found the height of the place to bee in 44 degrees. We found a shoald with many lobsters on it, and caught one and thirtie . . . in the morning, our scute went out to catch fresh fish halfe an houre before day, and returned in two houres, bringing seven and twentie great coddes.
To clarify, Hudson and his crew waited out the mist, entered a harbor, cut down a tree to make a new mast, procured fresh drinking water from a spring, and caught and ate fresh lobster and cod.
Sounds like the Maine of four centuries ago wasn't so different after all.
Jetting in to visit Junior at a Maine summer camp is à la mode.
Each summer, approximately fifty thousand kids attend a youth camp in Maine. And each July, a good portion of their parents comes to visit, filling neighboring hotels and restaurants. The Maine Youth Camping Foundation estimates the total economic impact of summer camps at $245 million, a hefty chunk of which comes when the folks arrive to check in on Junior.
Chris Giroux, an employee at Maine Instrument Flight, the private jet operator at the Augusta State Airport, experiences the camp effect firsthand. A line service worker, Giroux says that "during that camp weekend when all the parents come to visit, it gets crazy up here." On an average summer day, several jets will utilize this central Maine airport, but usually no more than five at a time. On the parents' weekends in July, Giroux says, that number can jump to seventy.
If the idea of mom and dad flying in on the family Gulfstream seems at odds with your own memories of swimming lessons and s'mores, you haven't kept up with the times. Increasingly, youth camps are offering experiences you'd expect to find at a resort spa. Take the Robin Hood Camp in Brooksville. Bordering a lake and the ocean, this camp offers instruction in Thai kickboxing, scuba-diving, wakeboarding, crew, fencing, gymnastics, and even classes in Masai warrior culture.
Then there are the deluxe day-trips. According to Robin Hood Camp's Web site, "every camper should experience a two or three day sailing cruise aboard our thirty-eight-foot sailing yacht Robin's Way . . . We cruise the unspoiled islands of Maine safely, cooking lobsters and steaks when island camping."
Needless to say, not all of Maine's two hundred or so youth camps are quite so posh. "There is a huge national movement right now of going back to nature," says Mary Ellen Deschenes, the program consultant for the Maine Youth Camping Foundation. "Because basically kids aren't learning about their natural environments. So I think Maine camps are positioned to continue to do what they do in terms of that basic connection with nature."
We're not sure that eating lobster on a yacht qualifies as connecting with nature. On the other hand: where do we sign up?
Analysts taking the economy's pulse should spend time with a Maine auctioneer.
Signs of economic stress have appeared in unexpected places nationwide. In Maine, one such location is at the state's auction houses. From the larger clearinghouses to Saturday morning estate sales, auctioneers are reporting smaller crowds of buyers who are being more selective in what they'll bid on. "Antiques prices are down, so this is a terrific time to buy," says Clayton Pennington, editor of Maine Antique Digest. "Some very blue-chippy antiques have really dropped in price."
But that blue-chip connection is exactly the problem facing Maine's auction market at the moment, dealers say, as the challenging economy forces both buyers and sellers to become more reluctant. "During good times, goods rush into and out of an auction like a raging river," explains James D. Julia, who has operated his auction house in Fairfield for forty years. "During bad times it's more like a stream. Many people lose their confidence and they pull back. That fellow who was going to sell his collection a year ago may decide now isn't the best time."
Julia says that recessions tend to split the auction market by category, with rare niche items like firearms faring better than artwork. At an auction in March, as Wall Street probed depths not seen in decades, Julia held a near-record auction that saw $11.5 million in firearms sales, including one Colt revolver that sold for $750,000 — well over the presale estimate of around $500,000. "The firearms fraternity is less impacted by the economy than other
collectible venues, and art tends to be more impacted," says the auctioneer. "Frequently an art collector tends to be a more affluent, business-oriented person. Businesses used to decorate their offices with art as an investment, and because they are more embroiled in the stock market, that genre is far more impacted by declines on Wall Street."
Julia agrees that while bargains are currently aplenty in some auction divisions — he compares the mood to 1981, when the Carter administration was wrestling with a similar recession — buyers will likely come out of the woodwork as soon as the stock market finds its bottom. "There are people who are just sitting on the sidelines with money, and they're just waiting to put it back in," he says.
Who knew that Maine auction houses were leading economic indicators?
Unity College students have good reason to wet a line this summer.
Back when we were in college, skipping class to go fishing was something you only did when you were sure your GPA was rock-solid. But if your son or daughter is one of the five hundred students attending Unity College, you just might want them to ditch their philosophy class and instead start working on their back-cast.
On July 26 the school will hold its seventh "Fishing for Scholarships" tournament. Last year, 170 student fishermen (entrants must be accepted or enrolled Unity students) hit the waters of Unity Pond for six hours in hopes of landing a previously tagged lunker. Three weeks before the tourney, a carefully selected group of Unity students haul in two hundred large- and small-mouthed bass, pickerel, white and yellow perch, and crappie from the pond. Each fish is then carefully tagged and released. The tags indicate how much a fish is worth if you catch it, Most of them (185) are good for $1,000 scholarships, but ten are each worth a $2,500 scholarship, and three
are valued at $5,000. One trophy fish will earn its angler a full year's tuition (currently $20,540). The fish are usually released near the Kenokolus boat launch, but Alumni Relations and Events Coordinator Kate Grenier says not to expect them to hang around the ramp. "Hopefully they stay in the area we release them, but you never know," she says. "These are fish, and they could go anywhere."
Indeed, the Unity fish seem wiser than your average crappie. The most legendary lunker, tagged with a whopping value of four years free tuition (that's more than eighty grand for you water-logged fishermen out there), has gone uncaught for the past six years. Talk about the one that got away!
So much I wanted to tell you
that hot July noon you found me
hanging by my tendrils on the vine . . .
So much persisting to land in your palm
wearing my tight green jacket and string
zipper, my pod pocketing juicy seeds
you could have snapped between your teeth
but didn't. Planted late, sop and gloom
of June's relentless rains, slugs in siege
and gangs of weeds swaggering overnight
for territory — none of this stopped you
from seeing how delicate survival sometimes
is. So when you set me on a bare table
and opened your box of crayons to catch
the light on my skin, I held my composure
that grows in the vegetable world.
Our dark climb to exist, suspended,
precarious sweetness measured, end to end.

The WH pool reported. Did they kiss Barry´s butt too?
The star-advertiser reports that one of barry´s golf "partners" was bobby titcomb. What the paper didn´t report is that titcomb was picked up in 2011 for soliciting a prostitute. Also not reported was that bobby´s little ho is the homo variety. What´s more, bobby enjoyed at least two rounds with barry during his most recent taxpayer funded hawaiian boondoggle. There. Mr. AG doing the job the corrupt mainstream won´t do.
Golf in a gale? Couldn´t happen to a more deserving guy. My headline?: "The choom gang gets their butts wet!"
Very good, 3Nevertheless, The Arrogant Won jetting back and forth to Hawaii when some (who are working) are wondering how they´re going to pay the rent is nothing short of obscene.I like Dr. K´s suggestion that Barry should repeat to himself every morning, "Pride goeth before a fall."
Stay in Hawaii or better yet move farther west!
He was gone?
a 5-some eh....nothing like bending the rules - but who needs rules when you rule the world.
FTA: Playing in gusting wind and a driving rain...Where´s a lightening bolt when you need one?
Reading this makes me remember that scene in the movie Caddyshack with the priest on the golf course playing the best game of his life. Henry Wilcoxon was awesome in that role.
He and the missus treat the luxurious taxpayer-funded aircraft like taxi cabs, calling up one whenever the whim strikes them.Go there, stay there. Stop flying Taxpayer One back and forth!
BTW, Weather.com forecasts rain and wind through Tuesday in Honolulu. Three guesses why he´s bailing out early. No mention of the rest of the family and their assorted houseguests.
The Grifters will be back in town.

Though Houghten said he does not enjoy layoffs, the process is routine. "This is absolutely normal."
"We've always had these little bumps," Houghten said.
Of course you do have little bumps when your whole business model is obtaining other peoples money, then burning thru it with no results, the money runs out and it's back to finding scientists with grant money burning a hole in their pocket to lure to PSL.
Problem is the grant money isn't there like it was and scientists with grant money have way better facilities and locations courting them than Torrey Pines and PSL.
Would you move to PSL?
Houghten wouldn't invest his own money in PSL, He's been paying property tax and funding Vero's schools since day 1.Here's an article from another state in the biotech game.

Biotechs face funding hurdles
Former NIH director tells state firms that system is brokenMadison WI - As politicians consider ways to use state money to fund high-potential start-ups, the former director of the National Institutes for Health discussed the "very challenging" fundraising environment in life sciences with state biotech companies Tuesday.
Elias Zerhouni, who is now president of research and development for the large pharmaceutical firm Sanofi, said the system for developing new drugs is broken and requires a more open, smarter innovation network that includes scientists and others from industry and academia.
"From a policy standpoint, we need to understand that small biotech companies really are going through a valley of death and we need to help them," Zerhouni said at a meeting sponsored by BioForward, the trade organization for Wisconsin's bioscience industry.
Five years ago, there were 500 venture funds that would invest in biotech companies, Zerhouni said. Today, there are fewer than 200, and only 10 or 15 of them fund very early-stage research, he added.
Gov. Scott Walker told reporters Tuesday that he was still considering whether or not to include a venture capital proposal in his budget bill to be unveiled next month.

text: Bushido or way of the warrior, is a philosophy of moral principals observed and passed on through generations of samurai. The land of the rising sun has a deep-rooted history of legions of these skillful masters who lived by this precious creed of honor, loyalty, and self-discipline. While highly trained in many weapons Bushido philosophy taught that the katana (sword) was the samurai's soul. Made of the best materials by master craftsmen with generations of experience, even though it may seem simplistic in design with a slender, single edged blade-with its sharpness and cutting ability-the devastation the katana could wreak in the hands of a samurai was legendary. As a tribute and thank you to Mooneyes, Tom had Rich Evans lay down an engine-turned, white gold leaf Japanese rising sun on the tank panels. The sun stays hidden under the black kandy paint until the light hits it just right. As a tribute and thank you to Mooneyes, Tom had Rich Evans lay down an engine-turned, whit Like a samurai warrior, Tom Foster's skill, sharp eye, and dedication to his craft comes from years of studying, practice, training, and mentoring from masters before him. Hustling through the rough alleys and avenues of Southern California, helped expose Tom to the many different cultures the West Coast has to offer-hot rods, lowriders, and choppers. It was this early exposure to the custom culture that Tom developed a love of anything with a hopped-up engine and a set of wheels; and eventually led to his nickname, Crazy Fast Cracker. Tom busted his young knuckles working on his dad's trucks and heavy equipment, and then transitioned into the aerospace industry where he continually honed his skills and attention to detail working his way up to a mechanical engineer's position at Hughes Aircraft. Tom's earliest influence with motorcycles started in his late teens with a lean, mean, road rocket of a rigid built by an acquaintance named Parsons in San Bernardino. Inspired by that bike Tom picked up a Sporty and immediately began to transform it into a no frills, war machine. As time went on and Tom got more involved in the custom motorcycle scene he met one of his closest mentors who helped educate him on the build it tight, build it fast West Coast style, Ronn Simms. Some of the engine components like the rocker boxes were finished in black chrome. With more than 20 years in the custom V-Twin industry and more than 50 builds under his belt, Tom is still loyal and true to the less is more and the it's the details that will kill, approach of bike building. Over the years Tom has refined his take on the West Coast bike, with his style which he calls, Landshark. It's an aggressive style with loads of attitude meant to be ridden wide open, scraping pegs, and terrorizing the streets. Like the katana, Tom's bikes may seem simple in design but it's the selection of quality components and Tom's attention to the fine technical aspects that make them devastating weapons that when put to work, stand up to the fight and destroy everything in their path. As Tom relayed the story of his latest build to us it was evident that this bike, fittingly called Bushido, is a testament to his style and philosophy. "This project started with a trip to West Coast Choppers and picking up this sick CFL frame from my homeboy Jesse," Tom said. "I always wanted to build a CFL bike and when Jesse started producing the frames for 140mm rear tires I had to build one. During the mock up my friends from Mooneyes Japan rolled by and saw it and asked me to bring it to their show in Yokohama, Japan. I was fortunate enough to go last year and could not have been more impressed. They had more than 350 bikes, 200 cars and 13,000 people through the door for a one-day show. It was the coolest show ever. Tom kept it sanitary by running the lines for the brake light inside the rear of the lower frame rail. Tom kept it sanitary by running the lines for the brake light inside the rear of the lower I was almost finished with all the fabrication when a situation went down and I decided to pull a bunch of parts off and start fresh. So I rolled over to Black Bike Wheels and grabbed up some spoke wheels and went to war with this lane splittin' menace. I knew that the 113ci Ultima engine was going to haul balls so I peeled over to QTM with Chopper Dave to see Tara and scored some Brembo brakes and rotors. My next call was to my homie "Repo" at Evil Engineering and I had him send me a bitchin' 2-inch HT billet belt drive. Then I hit up Chris at Biltwell for a set of their 8-inch Chumps handlebars and Slimline risers. Geoff over at Joker Machine handled the hand controls with a set of JX series controls, a velocity stack, and Series 2000 breathers. I picked up a set of mid controls from KD Engineering. After I got at yet another homie, James Simonelli, at Baker Drivetrain for one of their billet five-speed transmissions I was back at the front of the pack. Time was closing in to where I'd have to box this pup up and ship it to Japan, so I shot over to Bitchin' Rich's and had him throw some bull shoulder on the WCC seat pan, then I hauled ass to Rich Evans Design for the paint. While Rich was busy getting a handle on my scandal, I grabbed my powdercoating from Concept Powdercoating, rolled through JD polishing and then Long Beach Plating, and started final assembly. When I build my bikes, aside from sticking to my style, I incorporate my training and background from years as a mechanical engineer. Therefore I keep everything to aerospace tech specs like +/- .005. All the bolts are machined so at least one to three threads run past every nut. Quality and perfection is the only way I let bikes roll out my door. Upon completion of this bike my Claudia named it "Bushido" for its fight, spirit and the code the Samurai lived by of honor and integrity. That's how we roll little homiez. Very special thanks to Claudia, Ryan, Vance, Frank, Jeff and Dennis for your help and all the companies on my tech sheet." Unfortunately while communicating back and forth from Japan about this build, Tom informed us that his earliest teacher, his father, passed away. Therefore, Tom would like to dedicate this feature to him. 1 | 2 | » | View Full Article By Eric Ellis Enjoyed this Post?

A complete, edited transcript is now available of the panel discussion on January 30 co-hosted by Hudson Institute's Bradley Center for Philanthropy and Civic Renewal and Hudson Institute's Center for Global Prosperity entitled:
"Creative Capitalism": Can It Meet the Needs of the World's Poor?
Wednesday, January 30, 2008 - 12:00 to 2:00 p.m.
Hudson Institute - Betsy and Walter Stern Conference Center - 1015 15th Street, NW - Suite 600
Washington, DC 20005
Event Description
Others are not so certain that development pursued by well-meaning experts working from the top down can ever make a dent in world poverty. Long-time critic of international aid WILLIAM EASTERLY, for instance, argues that: "We don't know what actions achieve development, our advice and aid don't make those actions happen even if we knew what they were, and we are not even sure who 'we' are that is supposed to achieve development."
Can Bill Gates' "creative capitalism" make significant inroads against world poverty? That question was addressed by Easterly along with Urban Institute Senior Fellow EUGENE STEUERLE and ALLEN HAMMOND, vice president for innovation at the World Resources Institute. Bradley Center Director WILLIAM SCHAMBRA moderated the discussion.

Libertarian – 2012 Version
by Tip O'Neill on Apr. 27, 2012, under Arizona, Atheism, big government, Bigotry, Blogging, Libertarianism, Ron Paul
Well I see that blogger Don Lacey has discovered that writing critically of Ron Paul in Arizona is akin to writing critically of Muhammed in Afghanistan
So it looks as if it's time for me to mention how we arrived at this point in history – which in this case is the story of two melding ideologies.
Ideology 1 – Libertarianism – begun by Ayn Rand with her popular novels The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged, and her collection of essays (with her boy toy Nathaniel Branden) The Virtue of Selfishness.
As has been famously noted:
There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs. – John Rogers
Rand was a refugee from Communism and her ideology was basically a celebration of free market individualism and a hatred of socialism.
She also was a dedicated atheist who hated religion, supported abortion rights and what she saw as human rights being oppressed by government.
ANY government.
She was not a "patriot", did not justify her ideology with rigamarole from the US Constitution or founding fathers and was a believer in individual rights – not "State's rights".
Ideology #2 – the Confederates. Even after losing the Civil War the South Shall Always Rise Again in the hearts of the Confederates. These southern gentlemen remain commited to maintaining the privileged place of the white christian male and are fiercely dedicated to the Constitution – or at least those antebellum parts of it that extol "States Rights" – and hate the Federal government ( previously known as the "damn yankees").
They will extol the virtues of "State's rights" at every opportunity, human rights not so much, and they love Jesus.
Now it would seem that these ideologies have little in common, which is true, but they have just enough in common – at least in rhetoric – to have become the jumble that Jim sees in his comments thread.
They share a paranoid fear of the "federal government" and they both fetishize firearms.
So when a Confederate like Ron Paul attacks the "Federal" government, they hear it as an attack on "government" – and they are willing to let that little "State's rights" plug he always inserts slip past. And soon they believe it themselves.
That is why, in 2012, "Libertarianism" looks suspiciously like those idiots arguing with Rhett Butler in Gone with the Wind:
You simply do not understand the Libertarian philosophy that is embedded in our Declaration of Independence and Constitution (as per Thomas Jefferson).
The point of this bill was to return more rights to the states
You mean the constitution would have to be obeyed under this act. As it stands, the state governments are forced to bow before the "anti-religion" religion you are a devoted follower of.
The idea of promoting States rights is because you can represent the values of your constituents better that way,
That's why we believe in state's rights and limited government,The federal government shouldn't have anything to do with the laws of the state. Furthermore, If a state wants to endorse or promote religion then they have that right. It's up to the state to make just and moral decisions form themselves; even if those decisions turn out to be mistakes.
States rights is a very big deal but the author just does not understand this. If a state has bad laws or ones that I disagree with, I can move away from the state.
Abortion is the most unilateral use of force I can think of. A zygote is not the same as a fetus, but life is life and it should be protected.
It is very clear in the constitution where the federal government should be in relations to the individual States,out of their hair.
Take the California Supreme Court, they created policy from thin air that Gay marriage is to be allowed
Honestly the biggest thing about states rights that appeals to me is the whole mantra of "Don't like it? Move to a state that runs the way you like."
The Constitution is explicit as to what the rights of the American people are and the Bill Of Rights gives the protection enforced by the "Federal" government. The Constitution also is clear on the restraint of the federal government with interfering with the sovereignty of states.
Using the argument that without the Federal government mandating every aspect of our daily lives this country would be a state dictatorship with slavery is an outrageous statement.

In-depth BiographySimplicity is key for the lo-fi blend of folk/indie rock from San Francisco duo Two Gallants. Taking their name from a James Joyce short story, Adam Stephens (vocals/guitar/harmonica) and Tyson Vogel (drums/vocals) have been playing together as Two Gallants since 2002, sounding more like a dirty Southern folk act than their Bay Area origins may initially suggest. They released their debut, The Throes, in 2004 on Alive Records and followed up two years later with What the Toll Tells on Saddle Creek. In June 2007 the Gallants prepped their audience for their upcoming self-titled full-length (issued in September) with a five-song EP, The Scenery of Farewell, their first release since an October 2006 incident at a Houston club that led to Vogel spending a night in jail and an uprising in the indie music community. ~ Corey Apar, Rovi

Topic: A help from all the members Posted: 20 Aug 2007 at 1:50am |
Dear Members,
I am a research scholar from India. I am working for my doctorate degree on the role of lithium on aluminium induced neurodegeneration.However, I am facing a problem in arranging the radioisotope of aluminium 26Al.
I request all the members of the Alzheimer's forum who are directly or indirectly related to research to help me in arranging the radioisotope as my work is getting delayed a lot. I will be thankful if somebody having the radioisotope could provide me with the minimum activity they can, whch can help me to do the prelimenary experiments.
Waiting for the reply from my fellow members.
With regards
