Dropout rates high at some area schools
By PAMELA GOULD
Roughly one of every 10 students who entered high school in Fredericksburg and Caroline County four years ago failed to graduate, according to data released Tuesday by the Virginia Department of Education.
Both school divisions saw a slight increase in their dropout rates from 2011. But numbers were better than rates recorded two years ago, according to state figures.
Fredericksburg Superintendent David Melton said that numbers the state released Tuesday are preliminary and that he just sent updated numbers to the state that he expects will improve both the dropout and graduation rates for his division.
Fredericksburg recorded a 9.8 percent dropout rate this year compared with a 9.6 percent rate for 2011 and a 13.5 percent rate for 2010.
"This is not a competition," Melton said in response to having the second-highest dropout rate and lowest on-time-graduation rate among the region's 10 school divisions.
Melton said the city division is doing the same things it has been doing for the past few years: utilizing a drop-out-prevention and on-time-graduation task force, putting goals into the comprehensive plan, providing counseling for students, and seeking early identification of students at risk of not graduating.
Caroline recorded a 10.5 percent dropout rate for this year—a 0.5 percent increase over last year but less than its 11.1 percent rate in 2010. Caroline officials could not be reached for comment.
The state released dropout and on-time-graduation rate figures on Tuesday. Statewide, the dropout rate for this year was 6.5 percent, down from 7.2 percent in 2011.
Orange County had the lowest dropout rate in the Fredericksburg region at 2.6 percent.
Culpeper and Westmoreland county school divisions were the only ones in the region to see an improvement in their dropout rates. Culpeper's rate dropped from 6.1 percent in 2011 to 3.7 percent this year.
Westmoreland saw the biggest improvement in the region, dropping from 14.3 percent in 2011 to 6.1 percent this year. Westmoreland also saw the biggest improvement in on-time graduation. The rate jumped by 13.6 points, from 75.5 percent in 2011 to 89.1 percent this year.
Westmoreland's improvement bested the statewide on-time-graduation rate of 88 percent. Westmoreland officials could not be reached for comment.
On-time-graduation rates reflect the percentage of students who graduate within four years of entering.
Gov. Bob McDonnell released a statement Tuesday commending state students for improvements overall in completing high school.
"More students graduating on time from Virginia's schools means we have more young people who are college or career ready," he said in a prepared statement.
He noted that the improvements are not enough.
"Our job will not be done until students in every school and every ZIP code have the opportunity to learn and graduate from high school prepared to succeed at the next level," he said.
The King George County school division recorded the highest on-time-graduation rate in the region for this year at 92.6 percent. Stafford's rate of 92 percent ranked it second. The two divisions were among six locally to exceed the statewide graduation rate.
Orange, Culpeper and Louisa counties joined Westmoreland in exceeding the state average.
King George High School Principal Cliff Conway attributes the district's high graduation rates to early-intervention programs implemented for at-risk students in recent years.
King George, which has one high school, uses a program, Project Graduation, that provides tutoring to students who have trouble passing the state's Standards of Learning tests.
The school also instituted flex time during the school day, which provides the opportunity for 50 minutes of tutoring. Students can also make up class time, take makeup tests and work in media labs. The school recently began offering Apex, a credit recovery program that allows courses to be retaken online.
Louisa's division exceeded the statewide graduation rate despite seeing its rate drop by 1.5 points to 90 percent. Spotsylvania and Caroline school divisions saw graduation rates improve by fewer than 2 points over last year. Spotsylvania's rose from 84.5 percent to 85.9; Caroline's rate rose from 82.4 to 83.3 percent.
Colonial Beach and Fredericksburg saw their graduation rates fall.

While these may lack the toxins that most cookies contain, they are definitely lacking some important nutrients. The maple syrup is refined and the almonds are pasteurized. They are very tasty, no doubt, but don't be deceived into thinking these are healthy. They are just not as unhealthy as some other sweet treats. The sugar in them still compromises your immune system just like refined sugars. That being said, I tried several flavors when they were priced for trial. I did not care for this one at all. My daughter enjoyed them, however.

Oh, Iherb! Please bring back the introductory price! These are amazing, but at the regular price, I can't afford to indulge. Bring back a lower price and I'll order these by the case every time I come here for my vitamins and herbs!!!
My favorite!

This is one of my favorite raw snacks and I tried almost all of them on iherb!!! They taste wonderful, although a bit dry, and I love the fact that they are low glycemic and organic. I just wish they used better quality ingredients such as extra virgin coconut oil, stevia or raw almonds... but I am afraid that would make them even more expensive, which is a pity for the kitchen lazy as myself because the recipe is really simple to recreate at home.
Tasted great!

The Farmingdale Community Summit Council, Inc. hosted a dedication ceremony on the evening of September 11 to unveil an artist's rendering of the September 11 memorial monument to be placed near the entrance of the Farmingdale Public Library.
Local residents gathered at the new Community Center at Allen Park last weekend to celebrate the victory of the Town of Oyster Bay's attainment of an approximate 15 acres of the Liberty Industrial Superfund Site. The celebration, which was organized by a member of the Concerned Citizens Association of Farmingdale (CCAF), included representatives from several local organizations, including the CCAF and fdale.com, the community's website. Also on hand were Oyster Bay Town Supervisor John Venditto, CCAF President Michael Grello, Executive Director of the Long Island Drinking Water Coalition Joe Lorintz, President of the Friends of Massapequa Preserve Richard Schary, a representative from SHARED (South Huntington Alliance for Responsible Energy Development) and a representative from the Neighborhood Network.
Farmingdale and Massapequa runners, walkers and wheelchair athletes of all ages and levels of ability are invited to sign up for the third annual "Fly with the ANGELS" four-mile run on Saturday, Oct. 12, which this year will for the first time be held in the friendly confines of Eisenhower Park.
On July 20, a team of 12-year-old baseball players from Farmingdale, Massapequa, Massapequa Park and Wantagh traveled to Cooperstown to participate in skill competitions and a tournament. With only the two previous baseball games under their hat as the St. Killian's Yankees, the players were able to post a tournament record of five and two. This outstanding record can be attributed to the motivational talks and coaching skills of Dave Critelli, Bruce Burnett and George O'Malley. Each received a commemorative ring for their hard earned work and inspiration for their great play from Dave Lemanczyk, former major league pitcher, with whom they posed for a picture.

A descant in a carol is a counter-melody (another melody) that is sung with the carol. The descant is usually higher in pitch.
Mr Hopkins has kindly allowed me to use these recordings. He recorded them in a hurry and asks that you be kind about his voice .

Workers welcome an early Christmas present
Thursday 16 December 1993
'We're celebrating our Christmas do, not Thorp, but it is a nice co-incidence,' one worker said.
The workers were obviously pleased with the go-ahead for Thorp despite the possibility of a further delay. The harsh reality for most people in West Cumbria is that without Thorp unemployment would rise even faster. West Cumbrians used words like 'disaster' or 'tragedy' and 'catastrophe' yesterday to emphasise their feelings about the effect of Thorp not going ahead.
Inside the plant away from the relaxed atmosphere of the visitor centre, workers said that people's fears about safety were unfounded. They after all were the people responsible for safety for themselves and everyone else. They all fear unemployment.
One man who has spent most of his working life at Sellafield said: 'If they had not given us the go-ahead, our future would be as bleak as anywhere in the country. We do not have anywhere else to work and the amount of money that would have been lost to the local economy is just unthinkable. It would have devastated this area.'
John Kane, 38, married with two daughters, has worked at the plant since 1973 and is now a union official. He said: 'This is something we have been campaigning for for well over a year. It was not, as far as we were concerned, a foregone conclusion despite what people might think. But it is the decision we and the community wanted. They are closing the shipyards and the coal mines but thank God we have work here.'
Environmental groups were less enthusiastic. Janine Allis-Smith one of the campaigners for Core (Cumbrians Opposed to a Radio-Active Environment) said it was a great disappointment for the future of the area.
People had a great deal of anger about the way the nuclear industry dominated the district.

Time and again when it needs to help its clients make a splash, Pi Eventos turns to Guinness World Records.
In its latest record-breaking triumph, the Argentine events company helped Cencosud - the third-largest retailer in Latin America - bring the record for the longest graffiti scroll back to the region. Using urban artists as consultants and relying on its own employees for execution, Cencosud completed a scroll measuring 1,981 m (6,499 ft 4 in) long.
Jorge Farray is the CEO of Pi Eventos.
"In my time having put on these corporate events," he said, "I have never seen any other activities that allow so many experiences at once: teamwork, leadership, motivation, communication - it's a perfect combination."
The attempt took place in the beautiful mountain lake region of San Carlos de Bariloche, Argentina, providing a mesmerizing backdrop for an activity meant to encourage team-building and staff engagement.
In particular, the longest graffiti scroll record has been broken 16 times in 10 countries over the last 12 years; six of those times have been by companies engaging their staff.
Pi Eventos originally pointed Danone in the direction of this record in 2011, when it broke the mark at 1,463.85 m (4802.65 ft) long, in Brazil. After seeing the number broken in Malaysia, the Netherlands, and then the UAE since then, the inspiration was in place to return the accomplishment to South America.
For its required unifying theme, the scroll depicted an artistic timeline of the company's entire history.
Meanwhile, Cencosud joins a long list of clients that Pi Eventos has helped with both team building and PR awareness by assisting with the organization of world record attempts. In addition to Danone, other notable groups to have broken various records include Monsanto and GlaxoSmithKline.
Farray added: "This is really unbeatable for any groups that need to realize they don't have any limits."

The actress who was allegedly selected by the Church of Scientology as a candidate to be Tom Cruise's real-life girlfriend "was told she was being chosen for a mission" and was "really going to save the world," according to the author of Vanity Fair's magazine article detailing the couple's relationship. As particulars of Maureen Orth's story continue to surface -- and Cruise and the Church of Scientology continue to vehemently deny the allegations -- Orth, the magazine's special correspondent, told "Good Morning America" today that as Iranian-born, London-raised actress Nazanin Boniadi was being carefully vetted, she did not know what was in store for her.

Mitt Romney's Favorite Novel Is L. Ron Hubbard's Battlefield Earth
Just when America thought it couldn't be any more confused by Mormonism, Romney went and said this. To be fair, he added that his favorite book overall (nonfiction included) is the bible, an answer which all Republican presidential candidates must give from now to eternity. A nugget from the New York Times five years ago:

"What's your favorite novel?" is a perennial campaign question, the answer to which presumably gives insight into leadership. A "Moby-Dick" lover may understand the perils of obsessively chasing of a goal. A fan of "To Kill a Mockingbird" may well focus on racial justice.
When asked his favorite novel in an interview shown yesterday on the Fox News Channel, Mitt Romney pointed to "Battlefield Earth," a novel by L. Ron Hubbard, the founder of Scientology. That book was turned into a film by John Travolta, a Scientologist. A spokesman said later it was one of Mr.
Tough Time for Scientology Continues with Death in Narconon Treatment Center
The Church of Scientology has been having a rough go of it lately: first there was the very public separation of high-ranking COS mucky-muck Tom Cruise and wife Katie Holmes, then the premiere of the trailer for Paul Thomas Anderson's thinly disguised film about Scientology, The Master. Now, it seems, the Church has another potential media disaster on their hands: a(nother) death at one of their flagship Narconon treatment center in Canadian, Ok.
According to a story in the Village Voice, a twenty-year old patient, Stacy Dawn Murphy, is reported to have died of an overdose in the center's withdrawal unit. That makes the third death at the center since October.
A former patient of the center, Colin Henderson, (see Colin's story here) has been a fierce opponent of Narconon since his own stay in 2007. Henderson stated that he has written to state representative T.W. Shannon numerous times with his concerns about what he described as Narconon's "quack science" and "low-paid, non-medical staff." Prior to the incident, Shannon's response was that he generally supported "faith-based treatment programs" and found nothing wrong with "facilities being up front about their priorities."
Henderson blames the state's Department of Mental Health for the young woman's death and also said that it was obvious to him that Shannon had never read his email.… Read the rest

Childhood Inside Scientology's Sea Org
Via the Daily Beast, Astra Woodcraft shares her youthful memories of and the tale of her escape from a Scientology compound in Florida, including out of body experiences, marriage at age fifteen, and an odd beverage of choice called CalMag:
… Read the rest
I was 7 years old when I entered the Orwellian world of rules, rewards, and punishments known as the Church of Scientology. Prior to that, I had led a relatively normal life with my family in London. Then my mother decided to become more involved with the church, and we moved to Clearwater, Florida, where she joined a religious order called the Sea Organization. She signed a contract commiting herself to the group for a billion years—covering her future lives, as the church believes people are immortal. We settled into a compound with other families. The year was 1986.
The Sea Org came along after Scientology, in 1967, initially operating from several ships.
Rupert Murdoch Tweets About 'Creepy, Maybe Evil' Scientology
It's not often that I agree with Rupert "Outfoxed" Murdoch, but he seems to have captured the essence of scientology within Twitter's 140-character limits.
Dylan Stableford reports for Yahoo! News | The Lookout:
Rupert Murdoch, News Corp. chief executive and outspoken octogenarian media mogul, took to Twitter on Sunday to weigh in on the breakup of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes. And Murdoch's tweets about Scientology sparked a big backlash.
"Scientology back in news," Murdoch tweeted. "Very weird cult, but big, big money involved with Tom Cruise either number two or three in [hierarchy]."
The owner of Fox News, Wall Street Journal and New York Post followed the "cult" comment with another tweet:

Scientology's Heretic
This Easter enjoy the strange case of "Church" of Scientology's very own Judas Iscariot, as told by Guy Adams in the Independent:
… Read the rest
The men who came for Marty Rathbun wore a kind of uniform: dark glasses, clipped facial hair, and light blue T-shirts. Each carried either a microphone, or a video camera. On their chests were pictures of a squirrel, upon which a photograph of Marty's head had been crudely superimposed. Topping off the ensemble were black baseball caps with an embroidered slogan stitched in white above the peak. It proclaimed: 'SQUIRREL BUSTERS'.
There were four of them, and they appeared around lunchtime on 18 April last year. Marty was making a sandwich in the kitchen of his home in Ingleside on the Bay, on the Gulf Coast of Texas. When he heard them knock, he grabbed a video camera kept on his sideboard for such an occasion.
L. Ron Hubbard & Aleister Crowley: The Occult Roots of Scientology?
Ohio State professor Hugh Urban is no stranger to esoteric religions, and The Village Voice blog Runnin' Scared is no stranger either to the professor or to his other pet project: well-deserved exposés of that most modern of esoteric religions, Scientology.
Regular Disinfo readers would be familiar with the following slightly paranoia-inducing fact, as the post puts it: "that after his involvement in WWII, Hubbard shacked up with Jet Propulsion Lab rocket scientist Jack Parsons, a man heavily into the occult, and in particular the teachings of The Great Beast, British occultist Aleister Crowley."
Many a conspiracy theory has been launched from this outlier. However, blogger Tony Ortega latest Scientology post 'paraphrases' Urban's new piece for the pay-walled journal Nova Religio, which is a thorough, academic study of the ways that Crowley's "magick" found parallels in what would become Hubbard's most famous creation, Scientology.… Read the rest

On Preventing the Ceremonies of Dumb People in Hollywood From Being a Burden on Their Parent Companies or Country, and for Making Them Beneficial to the Public
"I am giving an account of what…ought…to be."
― William Daniel Defoe, A Friendly Proposal for Foundlings and Bastard Children Moll Flanders
Much like the birth of Christ, historians of film rarely agree on when it happened: the birth of cinema, that is. Perhaps even more controversial, however, is the question of paternity. Who's your daddy, indeed?
Francophiles will forever laud Méliès, Teutons will zealously campaign for Murnau, the Russians <3 Eisenstein and proud Americans some of D.W. Griffith's first, err, exploits. And yet, no matter the geographic genesis of film, one fact about its origin remains clear across the national board: it was, in fact, a silent birth. #Scientology.

Speculative Fictions: Scientology's Tin-Pot Real Estate Empire and the Real Owners of the World
Business Insider pulls the veil aside a little on the vast global real estate portfolio of The Church Of Scientology, with 10 examples from the over 8,500 Scientology Churches, Missions and affiliated groups buildings in 165 countries around the world.
Still, Scientology is way behind the top five largest landowners in the world: Queen Elizabeth II (legal owner of about 6,600 million acres of land, one sixth of the earth's non ocean surface, valued at £17,600,000,000,000); the Russian state (4,219 million acres); the Chinese state (about 2,365 million acres); the Federal Government of the United States, which owns about one third of the land of the USA (760 million acres); and the King of Saudi Arabia (553 million acres).
And not even in the same class as the more venerable Catholic Church, but of course Scientology hasn't been able to take advantage of tax exemption for as many centuries …

Sci-fi fantasy becomes reality with 'digital life assistant' Project Jarvis
The idea of a computer that interacts quickly and cogently with your voice commands is the stuff of dreams -- not only are computers capable of tasks we humans find arduous, but you could also 'offload' menial memory challenges and tasks. You can focus on important things, while the computer handles the boring stuff!
That's exactly what Chad Barraford's Project Jarvis does. Dubbed his 'digital life assistant', Barraford no longer has to check stock quotes, Facebook or even the latest BitTorrents. Jarvis stays in constant contact with its owner via Twitter, instant messaging and voice comms.
At any given time, with Google Latitude, Jarvis knows exactly where Barraford is -- and delivers weather updates! Via SMS, Barraford can warn Jarvis that he has a migraine headache coming on -- and when he gets home, the lights will be dimmed, an email will be sent to his boss, and his Facebook status will even be updated.
Boston.com has a full interview with the owner -- or if you want the insider view, check out the Project Jarvis website. There's a video of Jarvis in action after the break. Incidentally, it's not open source... yet!

In the past dependent on the situation (home cooked/feast) I have used fresh mozzarells (home), fresh mozzarella plus ricotta (home) or shredded mozzarells plus ricotta (feast). It calls for "good chopped herbs", I used Parsley, Marjoram and Thyme - any thoughts, critiques etc...? > You may also want to add mint, it turns up a lot in other recipes from Italy, in fact the trifecta usually is Marjoram, mint and parsley with thyme turning up every so often. The only spices listed by name are "pepper, cloves and ginger". I used fresh ginger, but now that I am thinking on it more, the inclusion of ginger with two other powered spices might imply that I should have used powdered ginger. Then again, I am fairly confident that you can grow ginger in most areas of Italy and the fresh would be widely available. Anyone have any good arguments for one or the other forms? > pretty much every time I have seen ginger called for in Italian recipes it is calling for "powdered" or "ground". It is always (to the best of my recollection) lumped with the other spices, pepper cloves etc. I find that powdered ginger incorporates more fully and gives a much better flavor than chunks of chopped ginger in the ravioli. Lastly, it says that it would be better with ground capon breast. Has anyone eaten capon and if so what is the flavor difference between it and your standard chicken. I used purchased ground chicken for this redaction which was probably a mixture of dark and white meats thinking that our modern chicken breast is probably pretty tastless compared to capon mean and that the extra flavor from the dark meat would do good. > Capon is a bigger, meatier, tastier chicken, go ahead use ground chicken. Question is does the recipe call for the chicken breast to be cooked and then pounded with the other ingredients. From my recollection of chicken ravioli from other Italian sources this is usually the step that is taken. In which case you really should be cooking it first and you may as well just buy whole bits of chicken it would be cheaper, if not then just ignore me. Are there other fat sources added other than the cheese? The one I have made with chicken stuffing from Scappi included bone marrow as an additional fat source. I look forward to any and all thoughts, discussion/arguments that people might have.

Another great day on the rails in Philly. This Sunday saw us reach a peak of 9 once more, and this time we did 100% of what was planned.
We had three good regional rail trips on the Chestnut Hill East Line, Chestnut Hill West Line, and Media-Elwyn Line (as far as Media), the 101 trolley, the western side of the Market-Frankford Line once more, and an Amtrak Keystone round trip to Paoli. Two healthy uphill walks in Chestnut Hill and Media and a walk over the lopsided bridge in Paoli over Amtrak's right-of-way filled up the day nicely.
Overall, 10 people were involved over the two days, 7 of whom are Pennsylvanians.
Itinerary was updated with Sunday's real times.

The Reds will face the Australian A-League All Stars in their one and only match in Australia as part of Tour 2013 presented by Aon...
Saturday 20 July 2013. KO: 19:30 local time, 10:30 BST.
ANZ Stadium, Sydney.
All tickets have now been sold.
The opposition
The All Stars' 15-man squad was cut down from an initial shortlist of 35 after more than 30,000 supporters cast their votes and an expert panel, including All Stars coach Ange Postecoglou, had their say. The squad is subject to change and will eventually contain 18 players, with some of the initial choices expected to be unavailable due to injury, international commitments and transfers. Japanese midfielder Shinji Ono is on the provisional list, as is German Thomas Broich and veteran Australian striker Archie Thompson. The current 15-man squad features: Ante Covic, Mathew Ryan; Pedj Bojic, Nikolai Topor-Stanley, Trent Sainsbury, Patrick Zwaanswijk, Adama Traore; Shinji Ono, Thomas Broich, Mark Milligan, Youssouf Hersi, Michael McGlinchey, Archie Thompson; Alessandro Del Piero, Marco Rojas.
Head coach
A two-time Hyundai A-league Championship winning manager and former Australia national youth team manager, Ange Postecoglou is one of Australia's most respected coaches. Ange spent his formative years as a player for South Melbourne in the NSL, earning 4 caps for the Socceroos between 1986 and 1988. He got his first break in management at South Melbourne in 1996 and stayed there until 2000 when he took the team to that year's FIFA Club World Championship in Brazil to face the Reds. In the same year, Postecoglou was announced as head coach of the Young Socceroos. Following a seven-year period in charge of the Socceroos development squad Ange spent a short spell managing Greek side Panachiaki

French football expert Bruno Rozga gives us the lowdown on Marseille's main threats, and how they might replace injured front man Andre-Pierre Gignac…
Didier Deschamps has the tricky task of every instantly successful manager: maintaining that level. And so far in the 2010/11 season, it's been a struggle for the reigning Ligue 1 champions.
Marseille are back up to third after a 2-1 weekend win over St-Etienne, but Andre-Pierre Gignac, the summer signing from Toulouse, suffered a groin injury that rules him out of the Wednesday's tie. It's a blow considering OM's problem domestically this term has been scoring goals. Two games into the season, the club's main striker Mamadou Niang left to join Fenerbahçe. The Senegalese was top scorer in Ligue 1 last season and, with little time left in the August transfer window, proved irreplaceable. A bid for Sevilla's Luis Fabiano was unsuccessful, so the club opted for French firepower in the form of Gignac, who had notable success with Toulouse and has earned 16 French caps (mainly as a substitute).
Gignac is a Marseille boy but has only recently begun to replicate his Toulouse form at the Vélodrome. Under pressure, this physical striker tried hard – maybe too hard. Similarly to Dimitar Berbatov's experience early in his Old Trafford career, the fans expected more from him. However, a switch to the left of a front three seemed to ease some of the pressure; it worked as Gignac scored three goals in three league games before his injury against St-Etienne.
The team has had to rely on its attacking versatility for goals. Loïc Remy, also a slight concern after twisting his ankle at the weekend, and Mathieu Valbuena (again with question marks over his fitness) are both French internationals and can play wide right, but their styles are very different. Remy is a lean, pacy winger in the mould of a young Thierry Henry, while Valbuena is a stocky dribbler, hard to mark, who often

Process Control: Strategy for Speeding Up the Work at Each Step
Of course, it is critical to balance speed and risk. An effective mantra is to be bold but not reckless. At each step in the
development process, be aware of what data will be needed at various times during process development and manufacturing operations.
The most important data to collect at any time are those needed to satisfy the short- and long-term objectives of the program.
Over time, all of the important data will be collected. Non-important, or low value, data and information may become too expensive
to collect, with low payout. The goal is to minimize risk at each point in time.
Winning Strategies Recognize the Experimental Environment
1. Little is Known About the Critical Process Variables
At the beginning of many studies, the critical variables are not known. In such cases, it is prudent to start with a screening
study to be followed by characterization and optimization experiments that develop more detailed data on the variables, with
the large effects identified in the screening experiment.6
The end product when using a prioritization matrix approach (i.e., a cause and effect matrix) is a ranked list of the variables
and actions to be taken, including performing studies using designed experiments, refining the measurement system, and an
assessment using a failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA).7 These are all building blocks of QbD.
2. A Major Core Relationship is Known
In many cases, the subject matter experts already know the core relationships that have effects so large that they swamp the
effects of the other factors. In such cases, the first step is to run a small set of experiments to understand the nature
of this core response relationship.
3. Generalizing the Core Relationship to Other Products
As we move up the development cycle, we may want to determine if the core relationship can be generalized across similar product
types. The question here is whether we can spot key parameters that allow us to be more efficient in quickly identifying the
experimental design space of interest, and understanding the nature of the underlying relationship. The objective is to be
even more efficient with new pipeline products.
Illustrative Example: Viral Inactivation
An example that illustrates many of the points made above is determining the operating range for low pH viral inactivation,
a critical step in downstream purification. The purpose of this process step is to achieve maximum viral inactivation at an
acidic pH condition that still maintains product quality. Based on prior knowledge, product quality can be significantly affected
by several process parameters in addition to pH, including temperature, concentration, and hold time. The objective is to
find the process design space of these process parameters for normal operation and the worst conditions.

Onigiri! A staple in the Japanese boxed lunch (bento), it adds character to otherwise plain rice. Makes it easier to eat when taking your lunch with you. Also great with Ramen noodles! Use your imagination on onigiri, there is no end to the variety available. A great way to get rid of left over rice from a previous meal. Practice this one, it may take a few tries before you learn to make a consistent shape and size each and every time. It should look like a triangle with 3 dimensions.

Vadodara – The next stop for Shivalik ProjectsFeb 8, 2010, 03:47PM IST
Featured Today
Ahmedabad, India's seventh largest city, is experiencing a tremendous growth in its real estate sector. The demand for property has witnessed a steep rise in the last decade. This has brought about a sudden transformation in the city's skyline with a slew of important property and infrastructure projects being roped in the city. Magicbricks.com caught up with Chitrak S Shah, the Managing Director of city-based property developer Shivalik Projects to understand the dynamics of business in the city. Read on to know about his expansion plans as well: Q: How has been your journey so far? What has been the experience in Ahmedabad, Rajkot and Surat markets respectively? Ans: We started from Ahmedabad. Previously our group was associated with share trading business. In 1996, we diversified into real estate with a residential scheme of 120 flats & 18 commercial shops named as 'Sanjay' near Shyamal Cross Road. This was followed by Sachin Tower. The journey then diverted to 100 Ft Road, now known as the most developed area. After 10 years of work in Ahmedabad, we added Rajkot to our list followed by Surat. Ahmedabad is the business hub of Gujarat. Rajkot is the nerve centre of Saurastra and Surat is the trade centre for diamond and textile business. Q: Rate these cities on the basis of civic infrastructure? Ans: Ahmedabad is much ahead of Rajkot and Surat as far as roads, storm water, sewerage and water supply is concerned. Surat has very good bridges and roads. Again, Rajkot is also come up well. Q: What are the price ranges you develop in, in each city? What is the profile of consumers in each city? Ans: Price varies from city to city. There are many factors that govern price, like consumer profile, location, floors etc. Q: Are you considering expanding in any new region/city? What would be your criterion before expanding operations in any city/region? Ans: Yes we are planning to extend our operations in Vadodara. The city should be sizable enough to do number of projects. Q: How has the recession impacted the property demand in Gujarat, particularly in Ahmedabad, Surat and Rajkot? Ans: Recession has hit every area of each city, including the remote ones. Surat was worst hit, since the trade here is related to diamond market. Ahmedabad and Rajkot were equally hit. Q: Which segment has latent demand – residential or retail? Ans: Since last five years we are into retail and commercial development. It is difficult to compare these segments. Q: Are you a member of any national/regional real estate organization? How do these affiliations help? Ans: Yes, we are the members of GIHED. Their motto is, 'Unity among Builders'. Q: List three aspects that property buyers should check before making a purchase decision? Ans: The things in the order of propriety are: – Check the credentials of developer – Check the title to the property – Check your capability to repay. Most customers depend on external finance for their purchases. Hence it is critical to check your finances.

There is a sad story to report out of Michigan after an eight year-old child is dead after a weekend sledding accident.
It happened Saturday afternoon in Kalkaska County while a group of children were sledding down a hill at a park.
The sled slid off the sledding area, over a built up barrier, and crashed into a small clump of trees.
The sheriff suspects the sled spun around and crashed into the tree backwards.
Even the safety helmet the girl was wearing was not enough to protect her.
"Severe trauma to the head, the helmet that the child was wearing is severely damaged, it's broke," says Sheriff Bill Artress.
The child died at the hospital from head injuries.

Detecting system changes with Dnotify
We'll show you how you can avoid the tragedy of lost files with a transparent, Perl-based version control system.
During early phases of a project, developers tend to experiment with various options, and sometimes it is too early to save prototypes in the version control system. If you haven't set up a repository, or if you haven't been able to agree on its structure, you might find yourself working without a safety net. In this case, good code might fall victim to an over-zealous rm * or your editor's delete command. This month's Perl script, noworries, can give you automatic version control. Whenever you save a file with your editor, and whenever you use the shell to manipulate files using commands like rm or mv, a daemon hidden in the background receives a message. When it does, it picks up the new or modified file, and uses RCS to version the file. All of this is transparent to the user. Figure 1 shows a user creating and then deleting a new file in the Shell. Without some Perl wizardry, the file, myfile would have been gone for good, but calling noworries -l myfile tells us that the versioner created a backup copy just 17 seconds earlier. noworries -r 1.1 myfile retrieves the file and writes its content to STDOUT.

About Tony Beckwith
We've been renting our villa house and apartment since 2007. I co-own the house with two other guys from the UK.
Tony Beckwith purchased this house in 2004
Why Tony Beckwith chose Golden Mile
We bought this property because it is in such a wonderful area. Close to the Golden Mile, the beach is a short walk away and the famous Marbella Club Hotel is just down the road. This really is a very fine area and situated halfway between Marbella and Puerto Banus.
What makes this house unique
The most unique thing about our property is that it is a house and apartment all in one building. Ideal for two families as each family has their own private lounge and kitchen but can share the large terraces which are ideal for lunch/drinks whilst taking in the sea and mountain views.

Leathers, jackets & suits
31 December 2009 12:30
"I'm just about to start riding and I'm fortunate enough to have about £2000 to spend getting kitted out from head to toe. How should I spend that budget on everything from a helmet to boots?"Hamish Raven, email With that sort of cash you're spoilt for choice. The first thing a helmet has to do is fit properly, because then it will be able to do its job properly if you bang your head, but just as important is that it will be comfortable in day-to-day use so that you're not distracted by any undue pressure on your temples, cheeks or crown. Try a Shoei XR1100 at about £350.Next, leathers. Arlen Ness offer a good-quality set off the peg for about £900 and there are similarly-priced suits to be had from Hideout, Scott and Gimoto. A pair of £250 Sidi Vortice boots suit a narrow foot, while Alpinestar Super Tech Rs will fit a wide foot. Alpinestar 365 Goretex gloves are a hefty £130 but you will get all-year round use from them as they are waterproof, thermally lined, yet offer summer-glove feel. Finally a Forcefield back protector for £80 will give you an added feeling of security.

A stock car legend wrapping up his final season will race next week in the Prairie Meadows 150 at Iowa Speedway in Newton.
James Hylton was destined to drive race cars. Considering he learned to drive in one of Henry Ford's Model T cars before he was 10 years old, it's ironic that the 78-year-old would finish up his career in a new Ford Fusion.
Hylton announced his retirement from racing behind the wheel of his famous No. 48 car earlier this year. "I've been thinking about this for quite a while. I'm 78 and the time has come."
Hylton made 602 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series starts since 1964, winning twice at Talladega and Richmond. He said he should have won the series championship one season in NASCAR, but the point system was changed during the season and Richard Petty captured the series title instead. "I scared him anyway."
As for driving the No. 48, made famous most recently by five-time NASCAR Sprint Cup champion Jimmy Johnson, Hylton said he met Johnson once during a weekend that ARCA and NASCAR were both running at Pocono Raceway. Shortly after the meeting, Johnson's crew chief, Chad Knauss, showed up in the ARCA garage and met Hylton, carrying an autographed hat. "That took a lot of courage to send your crew chief to meet me."
Hylton has raced in several ARCA races at Iowa Speedway and looks forward to his final appearance at 8 p.m. on September 7th in the Prairie Meadows 150.
"Iowa Speedway's one of the nicest tracks I've ever raced on. It's just a world class facility. It's got a super speedway feel, but it's a smaller track. For a short track, it's got all kinds of room and you can race two and three wide. I just love the place and they treat us so well every time we go. Iowa's as good as it gets."
After finishing in the top-10 NASCAR Cup points in 10 of 12 seasons, Hylton embarked on a new career in the ARCA Racing Series, where he has made 163 starts since 1997. He also finished 11th in ARCA driver points in 2011. "ARCA took me in, so to speak. What a wonderful place to be in my retirement years."
His second place NASCAR Cup points finish in his 1966 rookie season is a record that still stands today. Hylton also holds the distinction of being the oldest driver to race in all three of NASCAR's highest divisions and he holds that title in ARCA, too. He made his 750th career professional stock car start at Pocono last August.

The first of several storm fronts moved through our local mountains and the desert this past weekend. And, of course, I had to drive right through it so that I could stop and check on my horses and give them an extra high-calorie meal! I had no idea what I would find as I drove up the mountain from the desert floor. I did notice clouds hanging around the mountains and filling up Deep Canyon. As I drove up the mountain road, I saw them rising up the sides of the canyon, like cotton. I frantically searched for a turnout (there are VERY FEW on this road) and I finally found one going the opposite direction, so I made a U-turn and parked. I stood in awe at the scene before me. Clouds were rising up from the bottom of the canyon and were tossed around by the wind. I saw several other motorists stop, too, and people hopped out to take pics and then retreated to the safety and warmth of their cars (it was extremely windy and cold outside!) I parked and walked down a small trail and tried to get as close to the edge of the canyon as I could, but it immediately started POURING and I didn't have my waterproof jacket. Plus, as I mentioned above, the wind was blowing and it was very cold! I'm glad I had the opportunity to see these clouds. While it was cloudy again today, and I drove the same road, I did not see the same phenomenom. That's My World for Tuesday, December 20, 2010.
My adventures in and near Deep Canyon, located near Palm Desert, CA and the pinyon mountains near it.
