Water-insoluble matrices have been used very successfully to couple reagents that are to be used in the analysis of biochemicals or in solid-phase synthesis involving biosubstances. The matrices have also been used as support phases in chromatography, for instance in ion-exchange chromatography, and as support layers in conjunction with liquid absorbents, such as diapers and sanitary napkins for instance. Synthetic matrices have often been hydrophobic, resulting in high non-specific adsorption, such matrices being water repellent, protein denaturing and difficult to form derivatives therefrom. Consequently, there is a general need to be able to hydrophilize hydrophobic surfaces/matrices.
Hydrophilization is known to the art. Oxidizing techniques, such as acid baths, flaming and corona-treatments are often used in industrial applications (e.g. in the case of films, flasks, bottles etc.). Alternative techniques are known for obtaining controlled surface structures, such as plasma polymerization (H. Yasuda, Plasma Polymerization, Academic Press Inc. (1985)), grafting with the aid of electron radiation (F. Yamamoto et al., J. Pol. Sci. (Polymer Chemistry Edition 16 (1978) 1897-1907) or gamma radiation (F. Yamamoto et al., J. Pol. Sci. (Polymer Chemistry Edition 16 (1978) 1883-1895), and photo-initiated grafting (S. Tazuke et al., ACS Symposium Series 121 (1980) 217-241). Electron and gamma radiation grafting processes require a heavy investment input and the provision of comprehensive safety arrangements. Photo-initiated grafting and plasma polymerization processes are probably better suited for Applicant's technical field (see above).
In the case of photo-initiated grafting on plastic surfaces, there is often used an initiator which is activated by UV-light, normally longwave light (300-400 nm). This leads to hydrogen abstraction and the formation of active centers in the form of surface-bound free radicals. If unsaturated monomers are present in the system, grafting polymerization is initiated from the polymer surface. The functionality of the surface can vary, depending on which monomers are added. The technique has earlier been applied to introduce hydrophilic layers which consist essentially of polyethylene glycol and heparin (K. Allmer, Thesis, Kungliga Tekniska Hogskolan, Stockholm, Sweden (1988)).
The invention provides a method of hydrophilizing a plastic surface with the aid of a photo-initiated grafting process. The method is simpler to perform than the earlier used methods and is able to impart comparable or improved properties to the applied layer. The method is primarily intended to provide hydrophobic surfaces with a dextran layer.
The inventive method comprises the steps of:
i. contacting a hydrophobic polymer plastic surface with a liquid which has dissolved therein
a. a hydrogen-abstracting photoinitiator that is activated by UV-light, and
b. a hydrophilic polymer which includes alkene groups, with the condition that the plastic surface presents a hydrophobic polymer having a plurality of hydrogens bound to sp3 -hybridized (saturated) carbon atoms and which can be abstracted by the initiator when said intiator is activated, and then
(ii) exposing the mixture to UV-light having a wave length which activates the photoinitiator.
The method is unique because the hydrophilic polymer is bound covalently to the plastic surface in one and the same step. This is made possible by the presence of the alkene groups in the hydrophilic polymer. By one and the same step is meant that no change in reaction conditions are necessary between activation and binding of alkene groups to the hydrophobic polymer. An essential factor in achieving high quality hydrophilization and retention of the original properties of the plastic is that the photoinitiator must not penetrate the plastic to any appreciable extent.
The surface (the matrix) to be hydrophilized may have different physical forms. It may have the form of a pore system, such as in porous bodies (monoliths or particles) or membranes, diaphragms, intended for chromatography processes, water absorption, etc. The inner surfaces of vessels, hoses, etc. can also be coated by means of the invention, particularly when these vessels or hoses will have contact with biomolecules, without said biomolecules being denatured or undesirably adsorbed on the surface. The surface may also be a part of a matrix body whose interior is constructed from a totally different material, for instance from glass or wood.
The hydrophobic polymers in question are normally synthetic. The sp3 -hybridized carbon atom is often present as part of an alkyl/alkylene group, which in turn is included in the polymer chain. Examples are vinyl polymers (polystyrene polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, polybutadiene, etc.) or hydrophobic polyesters, polyethers, and polyamides where the ester group, ether group, and amide group, respectively, is part of the polymer chain. The sp3 -hybridized carbon atom may also be present in groups which project out from the polymer chain. The aforesaid does not exclude the use of hydrophobic polymers which are hydrogen-bound to other types of carbon atoms, for instance aromatically bound hydrogen, aldehyde hydrogens etc. It is not the primary purpose of the invention for all these types of hydrogens to take part in the grafting reaction, even though it is not possible to exclude that conditions can be varied so that they will take part.
The hydrophobic polymer should not be dissolvable in the liquid in which the photoinitiator and hydrophilic polymer are dissolved.
Suitable photoinitiators capable of abstracting aliphatically bound hydrogen normally include a base structure in which a carbonyl group is bound directly to two aromatic rings, such as in benzophenone, including derivatives thereof containing a benzophenone structure, which include benzonaphthones, thioxanthones, etc. The initiators shall have a relatively strong UV-absorption (ε>10 liter/mol/cm, and in some cases >100 liter/mol/cm) in the wave length range 300-400 nm. The benzophenone structure is per se hydrophobic, meaning that non-substituted compounds will be insoluble/hardly soluble in preferred solvents (liquids) which in turn are hydrophilic. Accordingly, preferred initiators are benzophenone structures substituted with one or more hydrophilic groups containing
(a) ion groups or ionizable groups such as carboxy (--COOH/--COO-), sulphate (--OSO3.spsb.-), sulphonate (--SO3.spsb.-), phosphate (--OPO3 2-), phosphonate (--PO3 2-), primary, secondary, tertiary or quaternary amino (--N+ (R1, R2, R3), zwitterion groups, or
(b) neutral hydrophilic groups, for instance hydroxy (HO--), such as in carbohydrates, amido (R1 --CONR2 --), polyethoxy (R1 --(OCH2 CH2)n O--) etc. R1-3 is hydrogen or a lower alkyl, such as C1-6 alkyl, or aryl, and n is an integer >0.
In the majority of the cases concerned, the vacant valency in the groups will either bind directly to aromatic carbon in the benzophenone structure or to primary, secondary or tertiary carbon included in a hydrocarbon chain which, in turn, binds to the benzophenone structure.
In order for a compound having a substituted benzophenone structure to function as a photoinitiator, the substituting groups should only absorb light at wavelengths which are well separated from the wavelength range at which activation takes place; i.e. in the majority of cases they should not absorb longwave light in the range of 300-400 nm.
Relevant photoinitiators shall be soluble in the same solvent as that used to dissolve the hydrophilic polymer.
The photoinitiator most preferred at present is 4-benzoyl-benzyl-trimethylammonium chloride (Quantacure� BTC), which is an example of a compound having a substituted benzophenone structure in which a hydrophilic group (quarternary amino) binds to an aromatic carbon through a hydrocarbon chain (--CH2 --).
The hydrophilic polymer will always include one or more alkene groups (CH2 ═CH--) where one or more hydrogens may be substituted for a hydrocarbon structure and where the vacant valency binds to the polymer, possibly via a bridge (--B--). On the priority date of the present document, the best results were obtained with hydrophilic polymers in which the alkene group was included in an allyl group.
The bridge (--B--) may be a pure hydrocarbon chain having from 1 to 10 carbon atoms, such as methylene (--CH2 --), or may include a suitable functional group, such as carbonyl (--CO--). The bridge (--B--) binds via its one free valency to the free valency of the alkene group and via the other free valency to the hydrophilic polymer, normally via an ether oxygen or an ester oxygen or an amino nitrogen or amine or amido nitrogen. The bridge (--B--) preferred on the priority date was methylene (--CH2 --) which binds to the hydrophilic polymer via an ether oxygen.
The hydrophilicity of the hydrophilic polymer is normally associated with the presence of a plurality of hydroxy (HO--) and/or amino groups (NH2 --) on the polymer, where one or more hydrogens can be substituted with lower alkyls (C1-6 alkyl). The presence of HO-- and/or amino groups (NH2 --) enables derivation to be readily achieved after having grafted the hydrophilic polymer to the surface. Suitable polymers often have carbohydrate structures such as in dextran, pullulan, cellulose, amylose, etc. Other potentially usable polymers are polyvinyl alcohol and polyvinyl ethers ( CH--CHOR!n, where n is an integer and R is an alkene group (normally C1-10 and possibly including an ether structure, thioether structure, amino structure or some other stable structure) to which a hydroxy group or amino group is bound). The polymers may also include ion-exchanging groups, hydrophobic groups, groups which have biospecific affinity, etc.
The hydrophilic polymers concerned shall be soluble in the solvent used.
The solvent (liquid) in which the photoinitiator and the hydrophilic polymer are dissolved is primarily water or mixtures which can consist of water and/or water-miscible solvents (liquids). As will be evident from the aforegoing, the primary principle is that the solvent shall dissolve the photoinitiator and hydrophilic polymer but not the hydrophobic polymer. In the case of preferred embodiments, the solvent is chosen so that the photoinitiator partition coefficient for distribution between solvent and hydrophobic polymer will greatly favour distribution to the solvent phase (the liquid phase). If it is desired to retain the "inner" properties of the original plastic (transparency, mechanical strength, stability (etc.) solvent and photoinitiator combinations which favour absorption of photoinitiator to the hydrophobic polymer should be avoided.
The photoinitiator is activated by irradiation with a lamp which emits the light required for the photoinitiator to absorb light of such wavelength as to be activated. Normally longwave UV-light (preferably 300-400 nm). Light of shorter wavelengths (<300 nm) places higher requirements on the choice of plastic and the direction of irradiation, since in many plastics will exhibit significant absorption at such short wavelengths. During the grafting reaction, the temperature is maintained at a level in which the aforesaid solution conditions are maintained. Accordingly, cold UV-light is preferred, among other things.
High grafting reaction yields require the hydrogen abstraction to be directed selectively to the outer surface of the hydrophobic polymer. This can be achieved when the photoinitiator/solvent are selected so that the photoinitiator will not be distributed to the hydrophobic polymer to any appreciable extent, in combination with a transparent hydrophobic polymer, and by irradiating in a direction through the hydrophobic polymer towards the solution that contains the photoinitiator and hydrophilic polymer.
The hydrophilic polymer can be derivatised in a known manner, either before or after the grafting reaction, so as to contain charged groups --COO-, --NR3 +, --PO3 H2- (phosphonate) and --OPO3 3- (phosphate), --SO3 2- (sulphonate), in which free valencies bind to primary, secondary, tertiary or aromatic carbon atoms!, hydrophobic groups, groups which possess biospecific affinity (for instance biotin, strepavidin, antigen/hapten, antibody) etc.
The embodiments most preferred on the priority date were those that gave the best results in the experimental section.
Polystyrene microtiterplates (Dynatech Microelisa, without softener) and polyvinyl chloride microtiterplates (PVC, Costar Serocluster vinyl plate) were used respectively in the experiments. The plates were placed above a UV-lamp which emitted light at a wavelength which activated the photoinitiator used. The wells were then filled with a solution containing photoinitiator and polymer containing allyl groups or acryl groups, whereafter the plates were irradiated for 1-10 minutes and washed with distilled water and ethanol and finally dried for one calendar day (50� C.) prior to being analyzed.
Untreated samples represented control systems.
The benefit obtained by irradiating from beneath is that the light is mainly absorbed by initiator that is located close to the matrix surface. This favors the abstraction of hydrogen from the matrix polymer, which in turn requires the mirotiterplate to be transparent in the wavelength range in which the initiator absorbs (340-360 nm in the case of benzophenone). Both of the microtiterplates used (PVC and polystyrene) fulfilled this requirement.
Unfortunately, benzophenone and allyl dextran differ widely with regard to solubility--dextran is soluble in water whereas benzophenone is soluble in less polar solvents, such as acetone and ethanol. It was possible to circumvent this problem, by dissolving 2 g allyl dextran (1.39 mmol allyl per g dry gel and Mw 40,000) in 60 ml of hot glycerol, and by mixing this solution with 1.82 g benzophenone dissolved in 25 ml ethanol. The solution obtained was portioned into the microtiter wells that were subsequently irradiated. The wells were then washed with warm water to remove non-reacted allyl dextran. The surfaces became slightly powdery. The hydrophilic layer/surfaces obtained were analyzed with a contact angle, photoacoustic spectroscopy, (PAS) and ESCA. The results are presented in Table 1 below.
Discussion: After grafting, the ESCA-spectrum was very similar to a corresponding spectrum for the untreated PVC-surface and indicated a slightly more hydrophilic surface with a slightly higher oxygen content. It was found that allyl dextran became bound to the PVC-surface with low effectiveness. IR-PAS showed that the sample contained hydroxyl, although not as much as when grafting is effected with glycidyl methacrylate (GMA, result not shown). IR-PAS showed three pronounced peaks at 1658 cm-1, 1278 cm-1 and 702 cm-1 which derive from the presence of numerous unsaturated (carbon-carbon-double bonds) which, to a large extent, have probably arisen in side reactions (degradation of PVC via elimination of HCl) and to a lesser extent derive from non-reacted allyl groups. The degree of unsaturations was much lower when grafting with GMA (result not shown). The degradation of PVC is due to radicals formed within the matrix being split by a chlorine radical instead of binding to allyl dextran. The chlorine radical continues the degradation process by abstracting hydrogen, which in turn can provide new double bonds. The process is favoured by the relatively poor solubility of benzophenone in the solvent. Surface grafting is also disfavoured, because benzophenone dissolved in the matrix absorbs the greater part of the UV-light before reaching the phase interface between the liquid and the hydrophobic polymer. In order to achieve a highly qualitative result, the initiator shall be available in the interphase and not in the polymer.
Allyl dextran of the same quality as that in the preceding experiment was used. The Quantacure� BTC initiator was soluble in water, which meant that the compound could be dissolved together with allyl dextran in water. The UV-lamp used (UVP UV transilluminator, 366 nm, 5 mw/cm2) emitted cold light, therewith enabling heating to be avoided.
Procedure: 2.5 g allyl dextran and 1.81 Quantacure� BTC were dissolved in 25 ml water, whereafter nitrogen gas was bubbled through the solution. 0.1 ml of the solution was poured into each of the wells in the four center rows in respective microtiter plates and irradiated from beneath in a nitrogen gas atmosphere for 5 minutes. When grafting was complete, the plate was washed repeatedly with distilled water and ethanol and dried for one calendar day at 50� C., whereafter the plate was analyzed in the same way as that previously described. The results are set forth in Table 2 below.
Discussion: Grafting from an aqueous solution gave a visible hydrogel-skin of dextran which could not be washed away with hot water. After grafting, the wells in the microtiter plate were still clear and fully transparent. When a water droplet was applied to the surface, it first lay on top of the surface but then penetrated the surface and spread in the layer. Both advancing and receding contact angles are presented in Table 2. A high contact angle indicates high surface hydrophobicity. In our case, it is probable that allyl groups and other hydrocarbon structures were orientated against air in the boundary layer. When a water droplet was applied to the surface, the surface was restructured and became hydrophilic, which in turn resulted in the absorption of water. The receding contact angle is a measure of the hydrophilicity subsequent to restructuring against water in the boundary layer.
PAS-IR showed a pronounced hydroxyl peak from grafted dextran. Three peaks from degraded PVC were also observed in the case of PVC microtiter plates. Grafting on polystyrene gave a slightly lower hydroxyl peak than that obtained with PVC. No degradation was observed in the case of polystyrene.
Data obtained from ESCA indicated that the surfaces of both plastics were coated with allyl dextran to 100%. No chlorine signal could be observed in the case of the PVC-sample. The oxygen/carbon ratio for grafted polystyrene lay close to the theoretical value for allyl dextran, whereas the PVC sample showed a slightly lower value. It is probable that hydrocarbon compounds remained on the surface. A detailed spectrum obtained by ESCA-analysis showed a peak (carbon-carbon) for non-grafted polystyrene. After grafting, the spectrum was dominated by ether bonds and a relatively pronounced carbon-carbon-peak (probably from allyl groups).
Taken together, the grafting functioned well with a water-soluble initiator, particularly when the polymer exhibited allyl groups. It is extremely likely that one strong contributing factor is the water-solubility of Quantacure� BTC, which makes diffusion into the plastic difficult. Cold UV-light facilitated the handling process. Because the system was not optimized, it is probable that the reaction times can be shortened considerably. Although we carried out the grafting process under a nitrogen gas atmosphere, this may be disadvantageous. It is possible that the process can be better effected in the presence of oxygen, since it is known that allyl ether varnishes and lacquers need air in order to harden.
The method applied was the same as that described above with respect to allyl dextran, with the exception that the grafting solution was produced by dissolving 0.72 g Quantacure� BTC and 1 g acryl dextran in 10 ml water. The acryl dextran included, on average, one acryl group on each eighth monosaccharide unit.
Result and discussion: A visual assessment indicated that the applied layer was not of the same high quality as that obtained when using allyl dextran. Contact angle measurements indicated grafting on both types of material advancing 70� (PVC) and 61� (polystyrene; receding 30� (PVC) and 15� (polystyrene)!. The polystyrene material was also analyzed with ESCA, which showed a thinner layer than when grafting was effected with allyl dextran. No measurable grafting could be observed with IR-PAS.
Plates grafted with allyl dextran in accordance with the above were placed in a tank fitted with a lid and a magnetic stirrer. 50 g bromocyan and 2.5 l water were added. The tank was lowered into an ice bath and the temperature was lowered to 5� C., by placing ice in the tank. The temperature was kept at this lowered level during activation with bromocyan. 2M NaOH were titrated down into the solution to obtain a pH 11.3. The continued addition of a base and vigorous stirring is required to maintain a constant pH throughout the tank. After activation, the plates were lifted out and washed with ice cold aqueous solutions containing 0.25M citric acid (2 l), 5 mM citric acid (2 l) and finally with ice cold distilled water (4 l). Each of the activated wells were then treated with 100 μl aqueous solution containing 0.7 mg/ml strepavidine, 0.065 g/ml NaCl and 0.02 g/ml NaHCO3.

I will cast a fireball
I will make you soot

Long-lasting, water-based nuclear battery developed
Researchers working at the University of Missouri (MU) claim to have produced a prototype of a nuclear-powered, water-based battery that is said to be both longer lasting and more efficient than current battery technologies and may eventually be used as a dependable power supply in vehicles, spacecraft, and other applications where longevity, reliability, and efficiency are paramount.

MIT demonstrates slithering rubber robot
Once upon a time, robots were imagined as human-like machines with a distinct body complete with head, arms, hands, feet, and legs. More recently, designers have explored the benefits of emulating other creatures and their capabilities, with robots that can fly like birds, run like cheetahs, swim like a squids or, in this case, slither like snakes. Researchers at MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab (CSAIL) have come up with a single 3D printed, soft-shelled tentacle that is designed to navigate through all manner of pipes, channels, and burrows.

Spaceship Earth Grants competition offers chance of a trip into space

With a judging panel made up of former NASA astronauts, industry experts, space enthusiasts, and others, this new program aims to be a crowd-driven and crowd-funded effort to send private citizens into space.

Scrobby the autonomous solar panel-scrubbing robot
Solar panels need regular cleaning to ensure they are working at their optimum efficiency, and spraying them with the hose from the ground or relying on a heavy downpour won't necessarily get the job done. Like the windows on your house, they need to be scrubbed and polished for maximum effect. Enter Scrobby, a solar-powered, autonomous robot prototype designed to keep domestic solar panels clean and clear. Read More
A team of researchers from Stanford University and the University of California, Berkeley, has created prototype radio-on-a-chip communications devices that are powered by ambient radio waves. Comprising receiving and transmitting antennas and a central processor, the completely self-contained ant-sized devices are very cheap to manufacture, don't require batteries to run and could give the "Internet of Things" (IoT) a serious kick start.

Rosetta maps comet's surface for first time
As the European Space Agency's (ESA) Rosetta spacecraft continues its mission by accompanying comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko (67P, for short) on its journey into the inner solar system, sensing instruments have been studying it prior to an attempted a landing by Rosetta's Philae probe. As a result, the spacecraft has collected enough information to render a map of the various areas on the surface of the comet showing that it is composed of several different regions created by a range of forces acting upon the object.

First flexible graphene-based display created

Buckyballs and diamondoids combined to create molecule-sized diode
Scientists working at the Stanford Institute for Materials and Energy Sciences (SIMES) claim to have created a molecule-sized electronic component just a few nanometers long that conducts electricity in only the one direction.

Hubble helps find hidden supernova companion
A star accompanying a rare type of supernova in close orbit has been discovered by astronomers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope. Confirming a long-held theory that the explosion originated in a binary star arrangement, observations verify that the companion star precipitated the destruction of the aging primary star by drawing off mass until its core collapsed and triggered a supernova event.

Analysis: UNHRC probe ups anti-Israel atmosphere
(photo credit:Marc Israel Sellem/The Jerusalem Post)
So far, everything about the UN Human Rights Commission fact-finding mission on
the settlements has gone according to script.The report slammed Israel
for violating human rights and international law, called for a withdrawal from
the West Bank and east Jerusalem, and called for private business to terminate
their business interests in the settlements.Right on script, nothing new
there.Likewise, Israel – which boycotted the mission – issued a
statement afterward that could have been written last year when the mission was
first established."The Human Rights Council has sadly distinguished
itself by its systematically one-sided and biased approach towards Israel," the
Foreign Ministry said in a statement. "This latest report is yet another
unfortunate reminder of that." Nothing new there either.Everyone knew
that the wildly biased Human Rights Commission was going to issue a blistering
report against Israel, just as everyone knew that Israel would summarily dismiss
it.But just because the conclusions were pre-ordained, does not make the
entire exercise unimportant. From Israel's point of view this is just another
step in the Palestinian strategy – increasingly successful – for confronting
Israel in the international diplomatic arena, making things increasingly tough
for Jerusalem in the world, keeping it on the defensive, trying to isolate it
and keeping the world's pressure on.The UNHRC report by itself has
little meaning, it becomes important – and problematic for Israel – within the
context of this overall Palestinian strategy of keeping up a constant drumbeat
of diplomatic confrontation.Senior diplomatic officials in Jerusalem are
increasingly expressing concern that the country's standing in friendly capitals
in Europe and even in Washington is sliding, and that the continuous
condemnations and defeats in the international arena are taking a
toll."You can't fight something with nothing," Prime Minister Ariel
Sharon is said to have quipped to a top aid in the early 2000s, faced with
pressure during the second intifada to move forward on the diplomatic track with
the Palestinians.As Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu puts together a
new government, some are advising him to keep those words in mind. He will come
under increasing pressure both from abroad and from inside his coalition, if it
includes Yair Lapid's Yesh Atid, to initiate some step with the Palestinians to
alter the perception that it is Israel – not PA President Mahmoud Abbas – who is
the intransigent party blocking a return to the peace talks.Among ideas
being discussed in various quarters is the possibility of some kind of
settlement freeze, perhaps outside east Jerusalem and the main settlement
blocks, as an incentive to getting the Palestinian Authority back to the
negotiating table.The logic behind this is that if the PA says yes,
negotiations will begin and the very fact that something is happening will give
Israel a bit more breathing room in the international community. If the
Palestinians reject the offer, then Israel can say it tried, that it took some
measure to move things back to the diplomatic track, but the Palestinians did
not bite.Reports like those drawn up by the UN Human Rights Commission
on the settlements have little importance and can be easily discarded when
something else is happening, where there is at least some diplomatic motion,
even if that motion does not lead to movement.But in the absence of any
diplomatic motion, reports such as these take on more significance because –
essentially – that is all that is out there, and there is no diplomatic motion
which Israel can use to bury these types of reports.

Linux.com: Increase Your Guru Status
ROSE Blog: Rikki's Open Source Exchange
Linux.com relaunched this week with a clever twist: The Linux Guru Directory encourages site visitors to contribute content, answer questions, submit reviews, and actively participate to gain Guru status. In her blog, Linux Foundation's Amanda McPherson says, "The top user every year receives a dream laptop signed by no other than Linus Torvalds."
Amanda also says that the new site isn't just for news. She says, "While we're not a news site, we feature news and content from around the Internet, including content from our workgroups." The new site already has a case study, Linux career guide, a Switch to Linux guide, and community blogs.
Here's the part where I encourage women to toot their horns: If you are interested in increasing your guru status, but are feeling hesitant about putting your ideas/articles/code/answers/self out there, just go ahead and do it. Amanda would like to hear from you, so email her – amanda (at) linux dot com – or post your feedback on her blog (and get guru points for doing so).

SAM's Sandra Jackson-Dumont awarded $50,000 from Allen Foundation
Seattle Art Museum deputy director of education and public programs Sandra Jackson-Dumont wins one of four new Creative Leadership Awards from the Paul G. Allen Family Foundation.
Seattle Times arts writer
Sandra Jackson-Dumont, the Seattle Art Museum's deputy director of education and public programs, is one of four winners of the $50,000 Creative Leadership Award from the Paul G. Allen Family Foundation. The award, inaugurated this year, honors "future-focused thinking and adept work by individuals and community organizations." Dumont joined SAM in 2006.
Susan Coliton, vice president of the Allen Foundation, said that the awards' aim is to support "organizations that are successfully adapting in light of financial and other challenges that face many nonprofits."
Specific reference was made to Jackson-Dumont's creation of a Teen Advisory Group aimed at involving younger audiences, and to the museum's highly popular "SAM Remix," a quarterly late-night party series that blends music, dancing, arts activities and social networking with current museum exhibits. (The next Remix is at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 9, and is tied into SAM's new "Elles" shows.)
Other winners of 2012 Creative Leadership Awards are Deidre Holmberg, principal at Delta High School in Richland, and Literary Arts and Portland YouthBuilders, both based in Portland.

Immigration Reform Now
Rita Rico
It was the end of the day and I was feeling a bit cranky after an early morning that began with a teething baby and a 7am metro ride. I glanced at the program and internally moaned when I saw the plenary title: "Here we go... Yet another conversation about immigration." However, I was in for a surprise! After Cecilia Munoz -- who for so long was the "brain behind NCLR"-- gave us the scoop on the White House timeline for immigration reform, Senator Menendez gave a memorable speech about the importance of comprehensive immigration reform and the need to stop the anti-Latino sentiments that surround the policy debates. He said that he has heard the term "those people" a lot in the past couple of years, and that when people say "esa gente" in order to separate themselves as true citizens and de-humanize those who do not have such status, it's not a derogatory term reserved just for those without legal status in the US. Menendez said that "esa gente" refers also to you and me, my fellow Latino-identified. It took me a whole dissertation to explain the message he just so eloquently imparted. I had goosebumps as I stood to lead the standing ovation. Then, Rep. Gutierrez took the stage and calmly began his crescendo towards demanding equality for the hardworking Americans who are ostracized and thus vulnerable to sexual abuse and worker exploitation. I held back tears as he told personal stories that gave real faces to the 12 million undocumented Americans who need a solution in order to experience the basic freedoms we enjoy as Americans. Afterwards, I caught up with him to tell him I am from his district (Logan Square in Chi-town), and that I campaigned for his first campaign for alderman alongside my dad Matias Rico. He gave me a hug and said he was proud that I was a fellow! The kind of access that CHCI gives us can't be measured. I'm feeling grateful and you can bet that my crankiness disappeared for good this afternoon!

Visio for me. Not free though :(

Could try Dia. Nowhere near as good as Visio but gets the job done and its free :)
Or in my case, it was a piece of paper and a pen...........
(I needed it quickly and off the top of my head)
I used to use Visio pirate edition. Its pretty good, but now I am legal and use Kvivo, from koffice. it does mostly the same stuff.
Nagios here. Check the 2d and 3d views. :)
Had just started to put something together using freemind but this thread has thrown up a few other good ideas.. Hmmm... :?
I ordered a license for Visio when I ordered my last load of Office licenses from Ramesys - they chucked in the license and media for free ;)
I use Visio and Flukes Network Manager, visio is perfect though, the fluke software talks to my fluke tools and to my managed switches
Just thought I'd try Visio out, how do I stack certain things like patch panels and switches? :?
Just had a play with that - not bad for logical maps, especially since it automatically makes room for new stuff.Quote:

I've been using photos and hand-drawn diagrams for the stuff I've installed / redone, but there are still swathes of uncharted Cat5 in our school (see above).
I have started using Network Notepad - it's great for logical maps. Easy to use and very slight learning curve. Thanks for the tip!!

|5 days ago :: Nov 23, 2014 - 10:10AM #281
As we give to God, as we serve Him and love Him, so will He vouchsafe to us His Mercy, Guidance and Protection. We must, at all times, put the Faith first and our personal desires and comfort second. Having this Faith we have eternal security and happiness which nothing can take away from us ever, no matter what afflictions may befall a faithless world. The Cause of God is our security, and confidence in Bahá'u'lláh our protection.
Shoghi Effendi, Compilation: "Lights of Guidance," p.129
