Clinical Significance
Monitor therapeutic drug level. Evaluate toxicity.
Methotrexate is an antineoplastic drug used solely or in combination with other antineoplastic drugs for the treatment of leukemia and other diseases. Relatively low doses of methotrexate (approximately 7.5-25 mg/week) have been used in the treatment of nonmalignant diseases such as severe psoriasis, asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, sacroidosis, and transplantation therapy. Intermediate to high doses of methotrexate (approximately 35 mg/m2-12 g/m2) with leucovorin (citrovorum-factor) rescue have been used with favorable results in the treatment of osteogenic sarcoma, leukemia, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, lung and breast cancer. The efficacy of methotrexate in the treatment of other tumors such as prostatic cancer is being investigated.No precise relationship between methotrexate serum levels and antineoplastic efficacy has been established, although levels below approximately 0.02 µmol/L were seen as necessary for resumption of DNA synthesis. The correlation between serum methotrexate drug concentration and duration of tumor cell exposure in predicting methotrexate toxicity has been demonstrated. Following a 4-6 hour intravenous methotrexate infusion with dosages ranging from 50 mg/m2-15 g/m2, a patient with a 24-Hour serum concentration of greater than 0.5-1.0 µmol/L, and a 72-hour level greater than 0.2 µmol/L is at an increased risk of toxicity if conventional low-dose leucovorin rescue would be indicated. Toxicity is typically present in the form of myelosuppression, stomatitis, nausea, vomiting, convulsions, and liver and renal abnormalities. Anemia, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, osteoporosis, skin and mucosal involvement with a fatal outcome have also been reported. Neurotoxicity and leukoencephalopathy are also reported as toxic effects involving methotrexate.

Some companies are starting to see a business opportunity in the political maelstrom surrounding Republicans' access to thousands of Democratic memos from the Senate Judiciary Committee. The task? To prevent another "Memogate" by making sure that policy and technology rather than people determine who has access to politically sensitive information.
Officials at Massachusetts-based Netegrity Inc. have been marketing the company's identity and access management solutions to interested House members such as Rep. Brad Sherman (D-Calif.).
According to Netegrity's chief executive officer, Barry Bycoff, the key to preventing future incidents of alleged hacking is to tailor systems so that "the right staff has the right access to the right information," regardless of rapid staff turnover in congressional offices.
But as the Justice Department embarks on a criminal investigation into whether Senate Republican staffers illegally accessed Democratic memos, raising awareness of the need for a technology overhaul is the immediate challenge for companies looking for government business.
Getting better all the time
Federal agency leaders are getting better at being prepared to ensure employees' safety in an emergency.
In the second governmentwide Emergency Preparedness Survey, Office of Personnel Management officials found that most government agencies are heading in the right direction to meet the minimum safety criteria for employees.
The survey states that 65 percent of agencies reported they have designated emergency personnel for mission continuity, and 63 percent have conducted threat assessments nearly a 50 percent increase from the previous year. In addition, more than 70 percent of agencies reported ensuring the protection of employees with special needs a 65 percent increase from 2003.
Nevertheless, agencies need to deal with some
major issues. For example, less than half have practiced shelter and evacuation fire drills regularly, and only 43 percent have a policy regarding telecommuting during an emergency.
Bad news buyout
About 100 employees at the National Institute of Standards and Technology could lose their jobs soon as a result of the agency's $20 million budget shortfall.
The deadline for employees to accept $25,000 buyouts was May 7. But NIST spokesman Michael Newman said it would be several weeks before it is clear how many employees will be laid off. It is also too early to know how the agency's information technology programs might be affected by the job cuts, he said. "Very few groups will be untouched."
Bureaucracy at its finest
State and county officials are working as quickly as they can to upgrade voting systems under the Help America Vote Act of 2002, but federal officials are complicating that effort in many ways.
For example, how are poll workers supposed to identify and then verify people who come in to vote?
Under the act, many states are using driver's license numbers and the last four digits of Social Security numbers as authentication mechanisms. Those are fairly common factors for any authentication in the public and private sectors, but local officials are running into a problem when they try to search the Social Security Administration's database to confirm those four digits, Bob Terwilliger, auditor for Snohomish County, Wash., said at the midyear conference for the National Association of State Chief Information Officers in Chicago last week.
SSA's database keeps Social Security numbers in their entirety and can't narrow those searches in any way. So when local officials run a search for four digits, they usually get back about 40,000 matches, Terwilliger said. What is a state to do?
Keeping medical records private
The Department of Veterans Affairs' Health Administration Center in Denver got top grades for implementing Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act standards for electronic transactions.
A report by PricewaterhouseCoopers Health Care Consulting Practice states that the health care industry has been delaying its adoption of the act's transaction standards, and many medical facilities are struggling with implementation. But the VA's Denver facility "is on par with the leading health-plan organizations as well as ahead of many others," according to the report.

This is so surprising and wonderful. I am dazed by all the attention and affection that has been coming my way this morning. It is such an honour to receive this wonderful recognition from the Nobel Committee and I send them my thanks.
When I began writing there was a very small community of Canadian writers and little attention was paid by the world. Now Canadian writers are read, admired and respected around the globe. I'm so thrilled to be chosen as this year's Nobel Prize for Literature recipient. I hope it fosters further interest in all Canadian writers. I also hope that this brings further recognition to the short story form.
We love the Kobo eReading service… and we know you will too. We've partnered with them to bring you the most flexible, enjoyable eReading experience in Canada.

Though it's still early in the festival and I have yet to see a few of the films in competition, I feel pretty confident in saying Goodbye Bafana will win the Golden Bear award this year. Every once in a blue moon you stumble across a perfect movie -- one that gets it all right -- and flows slow smoothly from start to finish, you almost wish it could go on and on ... and on. This year, in Berlin, Goodbye Bafana is that film. Not only is it an important real-life film based on two important men, but it's sincere, emotional and inspirational -- to a point where you just want to reach out and give Joseph Fiennes a hug, he's that believable. Pic, which is primarily set on Robbin Island, a prison off the coast of Cape Town, South Africa, begins in 1963 and spans 27 years. But, unlike La Vie en rose (which confused the audience with its jumping here, there and everywhere), Goodbye Bafana gracefully and seamlessly fades from one year to the next ... with each moment in time becoming increasingly more significant.
Story documents 27 years in the life of James Gregory (Fiennes), a prison guard looking for a way to move up the ranks during one of the most critical times in his country's history. With two young children and a wife to support, Gregory lands a job where is to take charge of the censorship office on Robbin Island -- a position that could easily lead to a promotion or two -- seeing as one of his main responsibilities is to look after South Africa's most feared terrorist, Nelson Mandela (Dennis Haysbert). Gregory, a severe racist (not because he chooses to be, but because he has to be), is to inspect all incoming and outgoing mail, while keeping an eye on Mandela and his cohorts. Because Gregory grew up on a farm, in which he was best friends with a black boy named Bafana, he knows how to speak Mandela's African dialect and proves useful in that he can play spy for the higher-ups.
However, when Gregory's spying leads to the unfortunate death of Mandela's oldest son, the guard (who has a son of his own) is shaken to the core. Whether it's out of guilt, or the fact that he is actually beginning to see things from Mandela's point of view, Gregory forms an unusual bond with Mandela which begins when he helps sneak chocolate to the terrorist's distraught wife. He then dives into his own independent research, seeking out a banned copy of the Freedom Charter -- which detailed the ways in which the apartheid policy should be abolished, paving the way for equal rights amongst blacks and whites -- but finds himself in a little too deep when a few of his fellow guards detect Gregory's sympathy for those who do not share the same skin color as they.
From there, things really begin to heat up: Mandela's followers continue to bomb public spaces within the city to protest their leader's imprisonment, while the government begins transferring their high-profile inmate to nicer quarters in an attempt to get Mandela to call off the attacks. All along, Gregory and his family are transferred along with him, hopping from home to home, prison to prison -- for 27 years -- until, finally, apartheid comes to an end and Mandela is freed from Victor Verster Prison (where, at this point, they had him living in a fully furnished house) on February 11, 1990.
Fiennes and Haysbert are outstanding as Gregory and Mandela -- both truly defiant men who couldn't help but feel the world around them with only their eyes and their silent actions. Based on the book by James Gregory and Bob Graham, director Bille August somehow manages to pack 27 years of explosive history into a two hour film that feels shorter than it is. His smooth transitions, coupled with two terrific performances from men who obviously researched the hell out of their characters, make for some extraordinary filmmaking. And, hopefully, it won't be another 27 years before another Goodbye Bafana emerges victorious on the big screen.

Triple Olympic gold medallist Stephanie Rice has described her performances at the recent Swimming World Championships in Shanghai as the "kick up the bum" she needed.
In an exclusive interview for the Wide World of Sports website, her first since returning from China, the pin-up girl of Australian swimming said she had been left in no doubt about the battle she faces ahead of next year's London Olympics.
"It was sort of a good kick up the bum I needed … need that extra motivation, so it was good," Rice said.
"I think people would have liked me to do better, but at the end of the day I have to be happy with the times I did."
In what was her first major meet since shoulder surgery 10 months ago, Rice walked away from the World Championships with two bronze medals, though only one was for an individual race.
That was taken in her pet event, the 400m individual medley, in which her time of 4mins29.45secs at the Beijing Olympics remains history's fastest.
The 23-year-old was almost five seconds slower in Shanghai, surrendering a body-length lead in the final to finish behind American Elizabeth Beisel (4:31.78) and Great Britain's Hannah Miley (4:34.22).
"I wasn't putting too much pressure or expectation on myself leading into the meet, I just wanted to see where I was at.
"I thought I was pretty fit, but I know I have a lot more to put into my preparation and training to come away with better results."
Rice received worldwide acclaim when she captured three gold medals, all in world record time, at the 2008 Olympics.
Plagued by poor form and injury since, she said she is only now beginning to appreciate those feats – and has a thirst for more.
"I know that I'm just going to put everything on the line in this preparation.
"Olympics holds so much emotion and excitement and I'm so looking forward to having that build-up again like we had in Beijing.
"You know if I can make the team that will be an achievement in itself, but I don't want to look at London Olympic year as being something that I'm trying to improve upon from Beijing.
"I think I have to look at them very separately and just focus on enjoying the moment and trying to do my best because at the end of the day that's all you can really do."

Data watchdog once again in discussions with search giant
The U.K. Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) has confirmed it is in discussion with Google over claims that the firm bypassed privacy settings on both Internet Explorer (IE) and Safari browsers to log user activity.
The data watchdog said that it was talking with the search giant to ensure it was complying with all necessary data laws.
"We are aware of this issue and are continuing to make enquiries with Google to ensure that they comply with the Data Protection Act and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations," it said in a statement.
ClickZ sister site V3 contacted Google for comment but had received no reply at the time of publication.
The issue first came to light after a Stanford University researcher reported that the company was ignoring settings on Safari intended to block tracking tools.
Google refuted these accusations, but since then Microsoft has said the firm is also ignoring its security settings on its IE browser, again forcing Google to justify its actions.
The issue is particularly interesting from a UK and European perspective as it comes weeks before the so-called Cookie Law comes in to force in May, which will force firms to obtain the consent of users before deploying cookies on browsers.
Google has admitted in the past it is struggling to develop the best system possible to adhere to this law.
The incident is not the first time Google has had a run-in with the ICO either. Google was previously investigated over the collection of Wi-Fi data from private accounts by its Street View cars.
The browser privacy revelation has also been noticed by lawmakers in the U.S., where three Congressmen have sent a letter to the Federal Trade Commission. The letter inquired whether the Safari cookie incident may have violated a 2011 privacy settlement between Google and the FTC relating to the company's now-defunct Buzz product.

County and school officials joined representatives from New Mexico's Congressional Delegation, contractor Hensel Phelps, consultants with WH Pacific and other entities in celebrating the official ground-breaking for the county-owned Airport Basin Site Friday morning.
The ceremony took place behind the RV Park on East Road. The site is slated to become the new location for Los Alamos County's and Los Alamos Public Schools' warehouses, shops, fleet and bus barns, and other facilities in early 2010.
The new facilities will replace the decrepit buildings at the county's and schools' annex at 901 Trinity Drive.
Los Alamos County Council Chair Jim Hall told the crowd of nearly 100 that first and foremost, the project will give county and school employees safe, efficient and modern facilities in which to work.
"If any of you have visited the shops and warehouses over at the Trinity Site, you know that they are truly in terrible condition," Hall said. "This is a project that has been long overdue for both entities, and today's event is the culmination of thousands of hours of work by dozens of individuals at the county and the schools."

NCUA Guaranteed Notes Oversight Plan Established; Proposed Corporate Rule to Relieve Regulatory Burden
ALEXANDRIA, Va. (Aug. 29, 2011) – The National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) Board convened a special open meeting at the agency's headquarters here today and unanimously approved three items:
The Board also received a briefing on newly revised lower loss projections for the Stabilization Fund, and anticipated future assessments on the credit union industry.
2011 Assessments Set; Future Stabilization Fund Outlook Improves with New Quarterly Model2011 Stabilization Fund Assessment—The Board set the 2011 Stabilization Fund assessment at 25 basis points for a total of $1.96 billion. The Board based the 2011 assessment of 25 basis points on projected fixed, near-term net cash flow needs with the expectation that future assessments would be considerably lower. Additionally, there is no anticipated 2011 Share Insurance Fund premium.
Funds generated from the 2011 assessment, along with borrowed funds from the U.S. Treasury, will pay the principal and interest on maturing Medium Term Notes issued by corporate credit unions and guaranteed by the Stabilization Fund, and the guaranteed notes issued to the bridge corporate credit unions.
As required by law, the Board took into consideration the potential negative impact of this assessment on credit union earnings by annualizing June 30 Call Report figures.
NCUA will distribute invoices with the 2011 assessment due by Sept. 27. Credit unions should expense the assessment in September and report the full expense on their Sept. 30 Call Reports.
New Quarterly Modeling Improves Outlook—Recent economic volatility poses challenges in what was already a difficult forecasting environment. Attempting to project the performance of the approximately 4 million loans that comprise the securities underlying the NGNs remains difficult. The performance of these loans ultimately feeds into the corporate loss estimates.
Through a competitive bid process, NCUA engaged Blackrock to conduct quarterly modeling of losses and cash flows on the securitized assets in the NGNs. Blackrock's new estimates forecast a wider range than previous projections given the ongoing economic volatility.
Based on Blackrock's June 30 model projections, actual performance of the legacy assets, and updated projections in monetizing the other assets in the asset management estates, the cumulative total projected Stabilization Fund costs for the corporate resolution program range from $5.2 billion to $9.5 billion. As reflected in the table below, by deducting the $3.3 billion already assessed in 2009 and 2010, and subtracting the 2011 assessment, the projected remaining assessments over the life of the Stabilization Fund are $1.9 billion to $6.2 billion.
These projections do not include any potential recoveries from settlements or litigation, which would reduce the cumulative total assessment costs.
2012 Outlook—Through NCUA's strong management of Stabilization Fund assets, near-term projected cash needs prior to 2013 have fallen from $2.94 billion to $2.7 billion. After the 2011 assessment pays the majority of this obligation, the projected requirement for 2012 cash needs will be around 9 basis points of June 30 insured shares, or approximately $700 million.
Board Creates Oversight Plan to Maintain NCUA Guaranteed NotesTo ensure the achievement of the objectives of the NGN initiative and sound management of the Stabilization Fund, the Board approved the creation of the NGN Securities Management and Oversight Committee and associated staff positions. In approving the delegation, the Board charged the group with ensuring that NCUA fulfills its ongoing responsibilities of the corporate resolution process in a manner that promotes transparency, efficiency and accountability.
The NGNs require long-term monitoring, managing and reporting on very complex transactions for at least the next 10 years. Creation of the NGN Securities Management and Oversight Committee addresses the need for long-term, streamlined management of the NGN initiative's daily activities.
Comprised of the directors of the Asset Management and Assistance Center, the Office of Examination and Insurance, and the Office of the Chief Financial Officer, the group will initially be chaired by Larry Fazio. The Temporary Corporate Credit Union Stabilization Fund will fund costs associated with staffing and operating the committee, including consultants.
Technical Changes to Corporate Rule Relieve Regulatory BurdenThe Board approved a proposed rule with eight technical amendments to the regulation governing corporate credit unions (Part 704) in an effort to clarify the Board's intent related to certain provisions, relieve regulatory burden where warranted, and facilitate access to liquidity.
Previously, the Board decided that a daily calculation of net risk-weighted assets was unnecessary and over burdensome. The first technical amendment would remove a reference to this calculation unintentionally left in during the prior amendment.
Additionally, the Board proposed excluding Central Liquidity Facility (CLF) stock subscriptions from the definition of net assets because the credit risk of carrying this asset is negligible. Excluding stock subscriptions from the definition encourages continued CLF participation by corporate credit unions and thus facilitates a systemic liquidity benefit to natural person credit unions.
To reduce regulatory burden, the Board also determined that violations of the weighted average life of a corporate credit union's assets should not be subject to capital category reclassification. The proposed rule therefore requires the preparation of investment action plans for such violations.
Within the proposed rule, the Board further changed the phrase "the sum of its retained earnings and paid-in capital" to simply "core capital," defined elsewhere in the regulation. Additionally, the proposal changes the date instruction on Model Form D in Appendix A. These proposed technical changes align with prior amendments adopted in 2010.
Regarding the requirements for investment action plans, the proposed rule clarifies what events could trigger preparing such a plan. Finally, the Board corrected the title of the executive compensation section to harmonize with earlier changes to the text.
The proposed rule only applies to corporate credit unions. The Board seeks comments within 30 days of publication in the Federal Register.

Thousands of residential apartments, retail space and parkland are one step closer to coming to the Astoria waterfront at Hallets Point, home to the NYCHA Astoria Houses.
On Wednesday, August 21 the City Planning Commission voted unanimously to approve the plan presented by Lincoln Equities Group, the company behind the estimated billion-dollar complex called the Hallets Point project.
In 2012, the development group announced it would build seven multifamily residential towers consisting of 2,200 units. Twenty percent of the apartments will be affordable housing. The location will also include retail space featuring supermarkets, drugstores and restaurants.
A 100,000-square-foot public park, outfitted with pedestrian walkways and bike paths, winding along the waterfront, is also expected to be included.
Robert Schenkel, Lincoln Equities development director previously said the project would bring a positive change to Hallets Points, bringing new housing, an affordable supermarket, a spot for a K-8 public school and a landscaped waterfront path.
The plan will now go before the City Council.
If the plan is approved, construction is expected to begin in late 2014 or early 2015.

Commuters head from Marion County into Hamilton County as traffic flows north on I-69 near the 96th Street exit.
To the people who want workers who live outside Marion County but work there to pay income taxes in Marion County I have this to say: No. This is just an attempt to tax those who can't vote against you. People outside Marion County save Marion County taxpayers money. If we all moved back to Marion County, how many schools would they have to build? As far as driving on your streets, we pay fuel taxes for that.

Showtime Picks Up a New William H. Macy Drama
The subscriber movie channel (known more these days for its original programming) has picked up the series 'Shameless' from 'ER' and 'The West Wing' producer John Wells. A remake of an award-winning British drama, 'Shameless' will star Macy as an alcoholic, blue-collar father of a large Chicago family. The twist...after his wife leaves him, he ends up handing the parenting of the clan over to his eldest daughter, who will be played by actress Emmy Rosum.
For Wells, the production of 'Shameless' will be a reunion of sorts. Not only will he be reunited with Macy, whom he worked with when the actor played Dr. David Morgenstern on 'ER,' but he'll also work with former 'The West Wing' colleague Allison Janey, who will have a recurring role as Macy's wife.
Movie Stars Invade TV: A Look at Pilot Season 2010
Why? Well, for a few reasons. Portraying a character on a weekly basis can present a new challenge to these veteran silver screen stars, but let's not forget that young Hollywood actors in tween-targeted films are dominating the box office. These Oscar-winning actors aren't giving up films, but their star power and names alone are big enough to attract an audience to a TV show.
Many Oscar-winners and nominees have left their mark on both screens -- just look at Sally Field. She's won an Oscar for 'Norma Rae' and Emmys for 'Sybil,' 'ER' and 'Brothers & Sisters.'
Maybe the Oscars of these latest stars got lonely on the mantle and the next logical thought would be: Why not add an Emmy sister?
Check out the list of actors who are coming to TV -- including Sissy Spacek and Dustin Hoffman -- after the jump.
Sissy Spacek to Star in CBS Medical Drama
According to the Hollywood Reporter, the Oscar-winning actress will follow up her role as the duplicitous lobbyist Marilyn Densham on HBO's 'Big Love' by playing the lead in a medical drama pilot for CBS, produced by John Wells ('ER'; 'Southland').
The pilot centers around a crew of mobile medical professionals who travel the globe in search of those in need of treatment. Spacek will play the group leader -- a role originally written for a male lead -- who has a tireless, demanding work ethic despite undergoing cancer treatments.
TV Casting: EXCLUSIVE -- Tess Harper Returning to 'Breaking Bad'
More casting news after the jump.
TV Casting: Lindsey Vonn to Go for Gold on 'Law & Order'
More casting news after the jump.
TV Casting: 'Twilight' Star Headed to CBS
Amy Smart Scrubs in for CBS Medical Drama
According to the Hollywood Reporter, Smart will star in CBS' untitled medical drama from executive producer John Wells ('ER'; 'Southland'). In it, she will play a "tough nurse" who speaks her mind and is romantically involved with another character.
The show follows a group of medics who travel the country to help less-fortunate people in need of medical care.
While Smart's career has mostly been relegated to film -- she's had a long history with both frat comedies ('Road Trip,' 'Varsity Blues') and romantic comedies ('Just Friends,' 'Win a Date With Tad Hamilton!') -- she's had a few roles on the small screen, including a season of 'Felicity' and a four-episode arc on 'Scrubs' as "Tasty Coma Wife."
CBS Orders John Wells Medical Drama Pilot, Yet Another Police Procedural
Per the Hollywood Reporter, CBS has ordered one pilot for a police procedural called 'Reagan's Law,' which traces the lives of several generations of New York City police officers.
Southland may yet find new life on cable
Executive producer John Wells has reportedly been in contact with the cast to tell them he has at least two cable networks interested in picking up Southland. The good news comes in two ways. One, the series gets to come back. And two, a cable network is a lot less likely to tamper with the storytelling style Southland was developing in its first season. NBC already had them de-emphasizing the larger cast and the serialized nature of their storytelling in the episodes they were filming for the new season.
Two Networks Interested in 'Southland'
According to The Hollywood Reporter, 'Southland' executive producer John Wells has informed the show's cast and crew that he is in discussions with two networks about moving the series to a new home. While Wells did not divulge which networks are in contention, speculation is centering on TNT as the frontrunner.
Willam H. Macy is getting Shameless for Showtime
The show has been tied to NBC, with Woody Harrelson in consideration for the lead role of Frank Gallagher, and more recently at HBO. Now, finally, original creator Paul Abbott and John Wells Prod. have signed a deal to bring Shameless to Showtime with William H. Macy in the lead.
Southland -- An early look - VIDEO
Southland, the gritty new police drama from film producer Ann Biderman, puts the spotlight on the dark and grimy corners of Los Angeles as seen through the eyes of uniformed cops and plainclothes detectives. Unfortunately, the series premiere is mired in cop show clichés and forgets to deliver anything we haven't seen before.
The first episode – stream it now or watch it below, a week before it debuts on NBC – owes a lot to NYPD Blue, Homicide: Life on the Street and countless other cop shows that came before it. It's a procedural with a large cast about cops struggling to balance "the job" with their personal lives.
ER: The longest goodbye in television history just got longer
I think ER first started saying farewell like eight years ago or something. Then last year was the final season. Then this year was the final season. And now NBC has added three more episodes to the final season of ER to push the last episode back just a little bit more. Of course, the end result is that this season of ER is now 22 episodes which makes it the same length as any other normal season. It also gives them a little more time to come up with an excuse to renew the show for another year and make next season it's new final season. What else do you have going on NBC?
They'd have to move it to 9:00 though because of Jay Leno, but it's not like the NBC lineup is brimming with hits they'll have to shuffle around. Of course, there is new programming to think about. In fact, the deal that netted the additional three installments was part of a negotiation involving Warner Bros. TV and another show they've got in development called Police, about the ... uh ... police ... in LA.
ER may be replaced with LAPD
NBC has had it pretty easy for the last fifteen years where Thursday nights at 10, 9 Central, are concerned. ER was locked in, and for the better part of that run was a dominant force. Now that the show is finally coming to an end, they need to start grooming a replacement. It looks like it could be a case of meet the new boss, same as the old boss.
ER executive producer, John Wells, has set up a new show, LAPD, at the network. It's an ensemble show that will follow the lives of police officers in Los Angeles and will be written by Ann Biderman. That's a solid choice as she won an Emmy for her work on NYPD Blue. The network has ordered a pilot and casting has begun. Another ER alum, Christopher Chulack, is on board to direct. Can it replace ER? Probably not completely. Remember, ER had a run as the number one show on television. That kind of success is hard to come by. Still, given the talent involved, it is something to look forward to.

Why Smith was canceled
If the comments section here is any indication, even though Smith was canceled rather quickly by CBS, it actually had a lot of fans. Of course, we didn't get 10 million comments, so "a lot" wasn't really enough.
TV Guide has a breakdown on why the show was canceled. It seemed like it could be a hit: West Wing/ER producer John Wells, big stars like Ray Liotta and Virginia Madsen, and lots of hype by CBS, but what happened? People have speculated that it was because the gang of crooks on the show weren't likable, but the magazine says that it was more the price of the show. Each episode cost about $3 million dollars!
I wonder how much that awful motorcycle chase with Simon Baker cost to film?

Qualis Health has extensive experience in designing and facilitating learning collaboratives. We have conducted Breakthrough Learning Series Collaboratives and other types of collaboratives on a variety of topics, as well as established and facilitated "learning communities" and "communities of practice" specific to PCMH transformation.
We lead the Safety Net Medical Home Initiative, a demonstration project sponsored by The Commonwealth Fund and conducted in partnership with the MacColl Center for Healthcare Innovation that supports PCMH transformation in the safety net. This project uses a modified learning collaborative approach in which we provide direct technical assistance to participating practices; train community-based Medical Home Facilitators to enhance regional capacity; and facilitate a multi-modal learning network that provides in-person and e-learning opportunities, a resource sharing platform and facilitated practice connections (e.g., field trips). This approach has proven successful in enhancing site-to-site knowledge transfer and tool sharing. Our multi-modal approach also minimizes travel and out-of-practice time for participating sites, while still providing opportunities for individual, small and large group interaction—both face-to-face and telephonically.

If you see fireworks in downtown Des Moines on Saturday, its not Independence Day celebrations starting early. Its probably just the Republican state convention, which is shaping up as a grudge match among factions of the party.
As the Register reported on Wednesday, a move is afoot to dilute the presence of Ron Paul supporters in the slate of at-large delegates sent to the Republican national convention in August. A unity slate made up of supporters of other candidates caucus campaigns is expected to be offered as an alternative to the one advanced by the state partys nominating committee.
At the same time, county party chairs and some members of the Republican State Central Committee have raised objections to the continued filling of state party leadership positions with former Paul campaign staffers. Party Chairman A.J. Spiker, himself a former paid campaign staffer for Paul in Iowa, has filled senior party staff jobs from the ranks of the Paul campaign. The new executive director, Steve Bierfeldt, is no exception.
Many of the well-established GOP faithful have been viewing these developments with alarm, and understandably so. Iowa is already getting the fish eye from politics-watchers nationally because of the fallout from the caucuses. Instead of fading back into small-state obscurity, as Iowa often does, it is at center stage as a tied-up swing state in the general election.
If party leaders must spend time and energy sorting out divided loyalties, its worse than a distraction. A fractured, bickering party could cost Mitt Romney a victory in Iowa and possibly the election. Democrats, who will be meeting next door at their state convention, have their own challenges but unity is not likely to be among them.
One of the worst things Iowa Republicans could do if they want to keep the caucuses first is embarrass their partys nominee. If Romney becomes president, hell have a lot to say about how the party should conduct its nominating process in the future.
That doesnt mean Iowa Republicans should try to purge itself of Paul backers, who represent new blood and enthusiasm. The Paul contingent came into their own by using party machinery and the caucus process the way it was intended to work. They showed up at caucuses, supported their candidate, and then stayed for the dull, nitty-gritty work of getting elected to county and district conventions, and ultimately the state. They stood for election to the state central committee, and won.
Some of those who are complaining about that now are learning the consequences of complacency. Those who were more interested in the ballgame on TV or getting home to relieve the babysitter on caucus night have no standing to fault those who stayed to elect delegates.
But those Paul supporters who educated themselves enough to gain some authority in the party also need to understand their responsibilities. They need to learn the rules and expectations, and also conduct themselves with decorum.
They also need to understand that while Ron Paul may have brought them to the hall, he wont finish the dance. They can either accept the job of helping to elect Romney, or they should stand aside.
The state convention on Saturday is where that process should start to set the stage for a successful national convention. If theres a brawl at the rehearsal dinner, Iowa wont find itself a welcome guest at the wedding.

Throughout its history most versions utilize blades varying from 17.7 to 31.5 inches in length. The weight of the average jian typically ranges from 1.5 to 2 pounds. Additionally, there are larger two-handed versions that have been used by many styles of Chinese martial arts.
The jian is known as "The Gentleman's Weapon" and is acknowledged as one of the four major Chinese weapons, along with the staff, spear, and saber.
Construction of the jian
The guard (hilt) protects the hand. The guard is typically shaped by short wing shaped construction pointing forward or backward from the handle depending on the era and region of manufacture. The handle located above the guard provides enough room for the grip of both hands or one hand plus two or three fingers of the other hand. The handle's grip is usually made of wood or covered in a wrapped with cord. The higher quality swords typically use a high quality wood suitable for building fine furniture
At the end of the handle is a pommel that is typically weighted for balance, as well as to prevent the handle from sliding through the hand, and for striking or trapping an opponent. The more accurate historical reproductions utilize a pommel that is pined onto the tang of the blade holding it together as a solid unit. Most jian however, at least in the last century, utilize a threaded tang onto which the pommel or pommel-nut is screwed.
Typically a tassel is attached to a hole in the pommel-nut, however most practitioners discard the tassel for their practice. Historically these were used more as lanyards, allowing for better retention of the sword in combat. Some sword forms use the tassel as part of their style of swordsmanship, but the tassel's use now is primarily decorative.
The blade is divided into three sections of differing lengths for offensive and defensive uses. The jiànfeng (tip) or first 3 to 4 inches of the blade is used for stabbing, slashing, and quick percussive cuts and it usually curves smoothly to a point. The middle section of the blade (zhongren) is used for a variety of offensive and defensive actions such as, cleaving cuts, draw cuts, and deflections. The jiangen or last section of the blade is closest to the guard and is used for defensive actions.
The Jian blade typically features a subtle tapering of width and thickness with the blade's thickness near the tip being only half the thickness of the blade's base at the hilt. The Jiàn's sharpening is usually made progressively sharper towards the tip and duller towards the hilt to correspond with the differing purposes of the three sections of the blade. The cross-section of the blade on a good sword is typically similar to a flattened diamond with a visible central ridge. However, some swords use a ventricular fuller (blood grove)with an oval shape.
Purchasing a Jian for practice or show
Traditionally, a jian was crafted according to the size of the user, and then balanced to his or her preference. Today, many lighter, non-functional weapons are sold that vary widely in weight and balance and are mass-produced for use in form competition and practice. If you are just starting out on your search for the right tai chi sword the offerings get murky, especially if you are purchasing online. Of course, the best way to purchase a sword is direct from a local dealer where you can handle the sword and measure it to see if the length, balance and feel are what you want, but finding a local supplier of quality swords is not always possible.
My first jian was purchased locally and was a bit pricey for the quality, but it had excellent balance and feel. However, the quality of construction was poor, especially at the $200 price. I searched online and bought a couple of swords from China through Ebay, all of poor quality and too heavy for practical use. Next was the Hanwei practical tai chi sword, a nice sword, but the handle and guard we're both too small for my hand and practice. The Hanwei sword though does have good balance and feel plus at around $100 is a good buy.
I was still in search of the right sword so I tried the Cold Moon Sword by Dragon Well, which was touted as one of the best tai chi swords on the market by its sellers. The sword is nice and the quality is decent, but it is more like the claymore of tai chi swords and too heavy for tai chi practice. The blade balance was weighted improperly and so I have had to do a fair amount of work to balance it. A friend with access to a welder and furniture shop tools cut his Cold Moon sword's handle down and reworked the whole sword to make it fit him better.
As I searched for a sword to meet both my practice and aesthetic needs I looked at the Cold Steel Gim, which sounds like a nice sword, but good luck getting one and you can't buy them to fit your size, it is a one size fits all proposition. The higher quality swords online we're either way out of my price range or the length of the blade was wrong for my size. Plus, there was no way to know their weight or balance points. Finally, I lucked into an arrangement with a manufacturer/forge in China that built a sword to my specifications in length, weight, balance and materials for a decent price. The pictures on this page are of that sword (click on the images to enlarge).
Properly fitting your sword
Weight is a major factor in a tai chi sword that is both functional and a joy to practice with. If it is too heavy it will affect the softness of your form, if it is too light it will not give you the feel or the development of skill that you seek. The ideal weight is around 1.3lbs to 2 lbs for the blade and handle together depending on the length of the sword.
How long should the blade be? If you have a sword and hold it with your left hand so that the tip of the sword point to your ear and the guard is resting in the middle of the fingers with the index finger pointed on the handle towards the pommel, the tip of the sword should be between the bottom and top of your left ear. If you don't have access to a sword use a tape measure. Hold the tape measure in the fingers of the left hand and measure to the middle of your left ear and this will give you a goodmeasure of the length your blade should be.
Blade materials
Jian were originally made from bronze, then steel as metal technology advanced. Today it's a mixed bag between spring steel, stainless steel, and Damascus steel.
Damascus steel: The general term "Damascus" refers to metal with a visible grain pattern, sometimes with a texture. Modern Damascus is a lamination of folded steels selected with cosmetic qualities, with grinding and polishing specifically to expose the layers.
True Damascus patterns are formed when carbon trace elements form visible swirls in the steel mix, that change properties when work hardened (forged). This blade is more expensive than stainless steel or spring steel, but it is also more beautiful and durable providing flexibility with strength.
Damascus steel is beautiful and requires skill to produce so the blade reflects the knowledge, craftsmanship and sensitivity of the forge. Light plays along its surface and even the most subtle actions are captured in the metal. It maintains a history with the fire and hammer, and because it is so responsive, it has an organic quality that transcends a plain polished blade.
Stainless steel: Stainless steel is an alloy of steel (steel is a product of iron and carbon) which contains the element Chromium of approximately 13-16 percent. Chromium added to steel and helps prevent rust because the chromium forms a protective oxide layer on the surface of the steel.
In smaller amounts, Chromium generally makes the steel deep hardening and helps to refine the grain size. However, in larger amounts, the grain boundaries are weakened, which affects the overall performance of the steel. How much performance is affected increases with the length of the blade. Personally, I would steer away from the more brittle stainless steelsword blade.
Spring Steel: Spring steel is a low alloy, medium carbon steel with very high yield strength. This allows objects made of spring steel to return to their original shape despite significant bending or twisting. Because of its ability to flex it is one of the best materials for functional swords.
High Carbon Steel: Basically also known as Spring Steel.

Introducing the amazing new party game with a little something for everyone. Partini is a delicious mixture of six unique games that will
Game Type:
Passive. Little or no movement is required.
2 or more players
Order the game from Amazon!
Buy It:
Why We Like It:
Partini is a great game. Actually, it is multiple games in one. It helps if the group is somewhat sober, but still wants a good time. Probably geared to the 25-45 crowd (or some really hip 45-60 year olds)especially with the music choices in the humming game. It is fairly similar to Cranium (molding things out of clay, humming songs, etc.) but with more of an adult spin. It adds elements of games like truth or dare, beer pong, quarters, etc.

Sex and the City 2 Debuts at Disappointing No. 3
Moviegoers wanted Shrek, not sex, this past Memorial Day weekend.
Despite heavy buzz, Sex and the City 2 debuted at a disappointing No. 3 with $37.1 million, getting beat by Shrek Forever After ($55.7 million) and Prince of Persia ($37.8 million).
Dogged by terrible reviews Sex and the City 2 grossed less in five days than the original flick did in three days.
PHOTOS: Sex and the City 2 NYC premiere pics!
Says Moviefone's Gary Susman: "It's possible that the film was hurt by poor reviews, its R-rating, and its 2 1/2-hour running time (allowing for fewer screenings per day) or its inability to attract male moviegoers (polling found the Sex 2 audience to be 90 percent female), but none of these proved obstacles for the first movie. Maybe it's just that real-life women the ages of Carrie or Samantha were busy taking their kids to see Shrek."

Nevertheless, Warner Bros execs anticipate the film could fare better during the week.
"We will do better midweek," domestic distribution head Dan Fellman told BBC News. "It's just that this was a little more difficult weekend."

PZ posted this video and I'm going to do so as well just because it's such a perfect example of the daily stupidity on that show. They're talking — ignorantly — about evolution. I mentioned my hatred of The View once and had a woman conclude that I just hate the idea of women giving their viewpoints. Well no, I just have no patience for people giving idiotic viewpoints (and her presumption was every bit as idiotic as this clip).
I would love to see a TV show with an intelligent, well-educated group of women. Give me a show with Virginia Postrel, Jan Crawford Greenburg, Camille Paglia and Elena Kagan on it and I'd be glued to it. But Joy Behar? Elizabeth Hasselbeck? Rosie O'Donnell (yes, I know she left the show)? I'd rather be tied to an anthill covered in honey to watch such vapid nobodies offer opinions on any subject.

Subjects taught at LSE | Services and divisions (administration)
All research groups | Research subject areas
The LSE Media Policy Project (MPP) is an excellent chance for students interested in media policy issues to dig into the most important issue in UK and European media policy. The MPP operates a blog, maintains an active presence in social media platforms, and publishes regular policy briefs aimed at using research to impact the way policy makers think on key issues. The project also hosts events bringing together experts from civil society, government and state institutions, and academia to talk about policy issues.
Interns with the MPP will have the chance to contribute to the blog, author dossiers on a variety of topic to serve as resources on the blog, and meet people who are important in media policy making in the UK. Tasks will also include working on the project's database, helping with events, and helping MPP expand its use of social media. Students will be part of a small project team and will work either individually or with others in the team. The amount of engagement can vary but students will be expected to spend 20-30 hours per month on the project. Regrettably these positions are not funded. They will last until the end of Michaelmas term with possible continuation through Summer term.
The project is looking for students who have good writing skills and experience with social media tools. Priority will be given to applicants familiar with Wordpress and online tools used for social marketing and who are able to start at the beginning of term.
You will have plenty of academic work to do when you get to the LSE but we'd like to offer you a flexible and interesting way to connect your learning with the 'real world' of media. We invite you to consider an internship at Polis, the journalism think-tank based in the Department of Media and Communications.
The Polis director, Professor Charlie Beckett, is an experienced journalist who used to work for the BBC and ITN. Polis works with media practitioners to create lectures, debates, seminars, research reports and an annual conference. Polis also has very lively social media platforms. We need your help to create all this.
If you are interested, apply now via the online application form by 9am on Monday 13th October 2014. Have a look at the Polis website and blog to see what we have done in the past. You can also follow the Polis director on Twitter to keep in touch: @CharlieBeckett and the Polis Twitter account @PolisLSE.
How much time?
The unpaid internships are flexible to suit your timetable. The commitment might be as little as a few hours across the term or it might be a small but regular engagement every week.
What skills are we looking for?
You don't need to have had experience or have skills - we hope you will get those through the internship. Here is a selection of skills you will use in a Polis internship:
What types of roles are available?
We are looking to fill the following positions. In your application form, please let us know what your role preferences are and why. We are also willing to accept applications from students who are interested in and willing to work in multiple roles.
There are also opportunities to assist Polis Newsroom Fellows with research tasks. We will advertise these roles on ad hoc basis throughout the academic year.
What do I get out of it?
We hope that you will enjoy working with the Polis team and with your colleagues. The internships are organised in teams so you're never alone!
You will make great contacts with media practitioners and we hope that you will also learn applied skills that will be useful in your career. We are also happy to give references to Polis interns.
Former Polis interns have gone on to work for a variety of media organisations such as Time Magazine, BBC, Al Jazeera and many NGOs and marketing or public relations firms.
If you need more information please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com.. Apply via the online application form by 9am on Monday 13th October 2014.

A smartphone app created by MBA/JD student Omar Haroun has received two 2011 NYC BigApps awards.
Haroun's geolocation app, Sportaneous, helps users identify nearby pickup games of basketball, soccer, or any other sport users might be interested in playing. The app won both the Grand Prize Popular Choice Award and second place in the Best Overall Application category at the NYC BigApps awards ceremony March 31.
NYC BigApps is the city's competition to reward developers of the most creative and impactful applications for delivering information from the NYC.gov DataMine to users. Sportaneous mined the publicly available data from the New York City Department of Parks & Recreation to provide users with a database of public sports facilities. Any kind of software application can be submitted to the BigApps contest, including creations for the web, personal computers, mobile handheld devices, SMS, or any platform widely available. As prizes, Sportaneous received $10,000, exposure for their work, and a meeting with Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
Haroun, CEO and cofounder of Sportaneous, says the idea for the app started when he was working for a San Diego law firm last summer. An avid athlete and former college basketball player, Haroun noticed that his firm's intramural teams frequently forfeited games because of players' unpredictable schedules.
"In the meantime, I was also discovering all these sports facilities that weren't being utilized," Haroun said. "I think especially in densely populated areas like New York City, there are probably always at least 10 people around you who feel like doing the same thing as you at a given time, but it's difficult to reach them. And I knew there had to be a better way to get people together for exercise."
Hence, the idea for Sportaneous was born. When Haroun arrived on Columbia's campus last fall, he began working with the Eugene Lang Entrepreneurship Center for guidance in launching his new venture. The center's Greenhouse Program helps Columbia Business School students prepare their businesses for investment by providing support and guidance throughout the semester, funding for prelaunch expenses, access to experts in key fields, and opportunities to present business concepts to professional investors.
"I had no experience writing business plans or making pitches to investors and potential partners," he said. "The Lang Center offered tons of resources and valuable advice as I was building this company."
Sportaneous launched in January in Haroun's hometown of San Diego, where it quickly caught on among not only pickup game enthusiasts, but also personal trainers and yoga instructors looking for a new way to access potential clients. In the future, Haroun hopes to develop fee structures with fitness leaders so that Sportaneous generates profits from the arrangement.
For now, the app organizes an average of two games a day in San Diego and was recently made available in New York City. The company plans to reach other cities soon, starting with San Francisco and Philadelphia and expanding regionally from those locations, with sights on eventual global availability. Haroun and Aaron Royston, cofounder and president of Sportaneous, oversee a team of 16, along with two advisers.
The NYC BigApps awards were a welcome surprise to the entrepreneurs. "It was a little unexpected, but incredible," Haroun said. "The awards are a real validation after so many months of hard work."
But although their idea has led to a potentially lucrative business, for Haroun, using technology to bring people together is a reward in itself.
"Our mission isn't necessarily to get rich from this but to give people an option to exercise together easily and in a fun way," Haroun explained. "If this failed to make tons of money but succeeded in solving this problem, I think we'd all go home really happy."

Hives (urticaria) - close-up
Hives (urticaria) are raised, red, itchy welts. The majority of urticaria develop as a result of allergic reactions. Occasionally, they may be associated with autoimmune diseases, infections (parasitosis), drugs, malignancy, or other causes.
