THE Federal Government, on Wednesday, said that it was ready for any legal action by Bi-Courtney Consortium over the cancellation of the concession agreement on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
This came just as the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission on Wednesday confirmed that it had summoned the Chairman of the company, Wale Babalakin, over "ongoing investigation."
Minister of Works, Mr. Mike Onolememen, told journalists in Abuja that Bi-Courtney was free to go to court over the revocation of the contract. Onolememen on Monday had announced government's revocation of the 2009 agreement with Bi-Courtney for the rehabilitation of the 125- kilometre road .
Bi-Courtney, under the agreement, was to spend N89.53bn on the reconstruction of the road and collect tolls on it for 25 years under the Design, Build, Operate and Transfer arrangement.
The minister said, "It is one of the rights given to government as a guarantor in the concession to terminate when certain things go wrong in the section prescribed in the agreement. And that is precisely what government did. So they are free to go to court and government will meet them in the law court."
While announcing the cancellation of the contract on Monday, Onolememen had said the action was taken because the company had consistently flouted the rules of engagement by failing to execute the DBOT project as stipulated in the agreement.
Bi-Courtney had told The PUNCH on Tuesday that it had not been informed of the termination of the contract and said it hoped that the matter would still be amicably resolved with the government.
"We have not been formally informed about the cancellation of the concession agreement and the process that led to it," it said.
However, the Deputy Director, Press, in the Ministry of Works, Mr. Theodore Ogaziechi, on Wednesday told one of our correspondents in Abuja that a formal letter had been written to Bi-Courtney, terminating the agreement .
"Bi-Courtney has been notified about the cancellation of the contract. I can confirm to you that we have written to them," Ogaziechi said.
The Works minister also on Wednesday dismissed fears that RCC, one of the two new companies to which the reconstruction of the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway had been handed over to, would not be able to handle its portion of the contract. He said majority of the roads in the country were handled by the company.
He said, "RCC is one of the contractors in the category that we are comfortable with. It is RCC that did most of the very important roads in this country that have continued to provide easy movement for people.
"As we speak, they are working on the Benin-Ore-Shagamu dualisation and they are doing very well there. They are also on the Abuja-Lokoja dualisation project on section II and they are in various parts of the country even in the Niger Delta.
"As a contractor, we have no doubt in our minds that RCC is a good contractor and we are confident they will do the work well"
Julius Berger is to handle the section from Lagos to the Shagamu interchange, while RCC will handle the section from the interchange to Ibadan.
Ogaziechi said the Federal Government could no longer continue to watch the huge loss of lives on the road.
He said since the expressway was the major link to Lagos from other parts of the country, it was imperative for a decisive action to be taken to stop the "shoddy work" by Bi-Courtney.
It was also gathered that officials of Julius Berger and RCC had a closed door meeting with Onolememen on Tuesday to discuss modalities for the execution of the project.
The details of the meeting were however sketchy.
In Lagos where the EFCC expalained that its inviation of Babalakin was based on an "ongoing investigation," there was speculation that it wanted the Bi-Courtney boss for alleged money laundering for jailed ex-governor of Delta state, James Ibori.
The PUNCH learnt that operatives of the commission stormed the Lagos home of Babalakin early on Wednesday but did not meet him. The operatives were said to have dropped an invitation for the businessman to appear in the agency's office in Lagos.
As at 10pm on Wednesday, EFCC sources said Babalakin had not visited the agency's office. A senior official of the commission confirmed to one of our correspondents that the operatives were in Babalakin's house to deliver a message to him.
"There was no need for trouble as our men went there to drop an invitation letter for him to appear in our office. He was not at home, so the men dropped the letter with one of his (Babalakin) aides and turned back," the source who craved anonymity said.
When contacted for confirmation, spokesman for the anti-graft body, Mr. Wilson Uwujaren, said a case between EFCC and Babalakin was already in court.
"We have taken him to court based on our investigations. Every other thing should be left for court to decide," he said.

Archive for the 'White Plains New York' tag
The GJG on the track
During last year's March Military Campaign, we introduced you to Private Lewis van Alstyne of the New York Guard and the distinctive roadster that David Greenlees later identified as a GJG. A couple more photos surfaced a couple of months later, and just recently, we received one of the clearest photos yet of the GJG, courtesy of Gregory Stroud, showing the GJG sometime in the early 1910s (possibly in October 1912) on the track at the White Plains Fairgrounds, helmed by Paul G. Thebaud, who bought the one-off Wisconsin T-head-powered racing special directly from George J. Grossman. Gregory writes:
Paul Thebaud had a summer house in White Plains, near the racetrack pictured, but he also raced at Belmont Park and elsewhere in the Northeast. The Mammoth Garage, the birthplace of the GJG was a few miles down from his home on Mamaroneck Ave. Paul came from a family of sporting enthusiasts, and Paul raced, in one fashion or another, cars, boats, bicycles, motorcycles, horses etc.
He was born, I believe, in 1889, and died in 1983. Like his father, he liked to work on motors and to tinker with machinery. Undoubtedly, he would have known George J. Grossman and visited his nearby garage (in fact, there is some confusion, because his daughters recall visiting with PGT at a large "special" garage either in the Rye or the Greenwich area with stuffed elephant heads on the walls in the 1960s. I thought the Mammoth garage was closed, but could this have been somehow related?). It would not at all surprise me if he backed GJG in some fashion. Later, he would serve in a special innovative army corps in WWI devoted to motorcycles with sidecars and mounted machine guns. Even into his very later years, he was known to drive up in his motorcycle with sidecar from Greenwich, CT to Woods Hole, MA to catch the boat over to Nantucket for the summer. He was a colorful and interesting man.
Indeed. Thanks, Gregory!
The private's car and the Mammoth Garage
mystery racing machine helmed by Private Lewis van Alstyne and his dog Viola, much of the speculation of the identity of the car circled around Fiat or, possibly, Thomas. Yet David Greenlees is very sure neither of those answers is correct; instead, he's almost positive that the car in question is a G.J.G. More specifically, he believes it to be a one-off racing machine built by G.J.G., and – get this – he thinks it still exists.When we presented the photo that Marianne DeAngelis of the New York Guard sent us of a
G.J.G., for those of you without access to a Standard Catalog, stands for George John Grossman, designer of the vehicle, built in White Plains, New York. Grossman appears to have come from a well-to-do family: His father owned a successful furniture manufacturing business, and the family bankrolled the innovative construction of the factory as well as the company itself with a combined capital of $10,000 (about $241,000 today). Starting in 1909, Grossman offered two basic lines, the 26hp Junior, riding on a 104-inch wheelbase, and the 42hp Senior, riding on a 121-inch wheelbase and bestowed with dashing names like Pirate, Scout, Comfort and Carryall.
Some sources claim the G.J.G. was nothing more than an assembled car, built from European components, but the Senior was reportedly able to reach speeds of 65 MPH, causing some observers to claim the initials stood for "Go, Jesus, Go!" Grossman was involved in racing: He offered his garage as the headquarters for the Isotta Fraschini team in the Briarcliff Race of 1908, and he is known to have built at least one race car himself, using a 60hp Wisconsin T-head engine and Brown and Lipe transmission on a Pirate roadster chassis. After G.J.G. advertised it as capable of at least 70 MPH, Paul G. Thebaud of White Plains bought it and entered it in the 10-mile non-stock free-for-all race against three Mercers, a Maxwell and a Fiat in the October 1912 automobile, motorcycle and bicycle races at the White Plains fairgrounds; we so far have found no record of how well Thebaud performed in that race.

The Department of Labor's (DOL) proposed rule, "Establishing a Minimum Wage for Contractors," is intended to increase efficiency and cost savings in work performed by federal contractors by raising the hourly minimum wage that contractors pay their workers. Research suggests that the rule is unlikely to achieve this goal – that, although an increased wage is correlated with increased productivity, the value of the increased productivity does not exceed the cost of the increased wage. The proposed rule suggests that increased wages cause increased productivity, but the research is either agnostic as to causal direction or suggests that causality runs in the opposite direction. Raising the federal contractor minimum wage can adversely affect the most vulnerable workers. Equally alarming, the rule as currently stated could be enforced in a manner so that its impact would extend to far more businesses than originally intended.

Information for Competitions
All competitions that have been approved by our coaches are on the Fixture list, along with information regarding qualifying times. There are different levels of competitions ranging from Level 4 – for the newer swimmers and a good place to gain times, to Level 1 which is primarily for the experienced national/regional swimmer. Qualifying times are set by the competition organiser, generally with an upper and a lower limit. If your child's time is within these limits they can enter that event, if they are faster or slower they cannot. With each competition advertised there is an Eligibility List – it is important that you check this list before submitting any gala entries to ensure that you child has qualified to swim. Please do not enter any competitions/swims if the details required to enter are not by your child's name on this list.
When completing the entry forms it is the parent's/swimme'rs responsibility to ensure that all information is present. Therefore you will need to also submit along with names: Swimming Times, DOB and ASA number. Cheques must be made payable to Chelmsford Swimming Club, and if paying by cash the exact amount must be given as no change is available. Remember that if the form is not complete or fees not submitted these will be returned.
Our Competition Secretary, Nicky Sanders, takes all entries on a block basis – please do not enter as an individual – this is so that all swimmers are entered electronically and one cheque is paid – which is the general request of the organiser. By doing it this way and entering earlier, there is more of a chance of getting all the swims requested. It does not look professional for entries to go in randomly so please adhere to cut off times that are stated and get your entries to Nicky asap. If you have any questions with regard to galas/club championships please ask one of the committee members who will be happy to advise, or email Nicky Sanders at: email@example.com – this will ensure prompt attention to your query.
Once you have entered a competition it is advisable to put this in your diary. On many occasions swimmers have failed to turn up because the date was not noted. If your child is unable to attend due to illness please email Nicky immediately. This helps the coach on poolside know who is turning up. Competition organisers also have the right to fine a club if a swimmer is not withdrawn prior to the race – please remember that this fine will then be passed back to the parent for paying if they have not informed us of a no show. This is also important for our Club Championships so that the heat sheets can be printed correctly. There is nothing more annoying than having a heat with only 1 or 2 swimmers in because parents have not bothered to let the organisers know.
The fixture list is updated on a regular basis – so please keep looking as galas are added continuously and may appear between events that have already been advertised. The Arena League Galas, junior and senior leagues are TEAM events. A team sheet will be put on the notice board at New Hall School at least 3 weeks prior to the event. We would ask that you all check and keep these dates free as if your child is selected to swim they will be expected to attend and represent Chelmsford Swimming Club.
Clothing for poolside
Racing costumes/trunks should fit you like a second skin, which means for the girls, you should not be able to pull up the straps two or three inches above the shoulders!! Boys' trunks should be small at the sides and tight fitting. No baggy bottoms, as these will cause drag which will slow you down. Both boys and girls need to take separate warm up costumes/trunks to the ones they will be racing in. Remember your racing costume must be approved by the ASA and you cannot wear more than one costume.
Club Royal Blue Hoodies, polo shirts and T-shirts only to be worn, together with plain black/blue shorts or tracksuit bottoms. Please bring a couple of club T-shirts as they will get wet. Fashion shorts or jeans will not be allowed on poolside. It is important to stay warm when at a gala all day & we expect all swimmers to dress in the team colours on poolside.
Chelmsford Swimming Club Silver caps should be worn at all galas, by both boys and girls. Remember these hats show that you are representing Chelmsford and it tells everyone you are proud to be part of the same team.
Poolside shoes must be worn. Most poolside floors can be very cold and you loose valuable heat through your feet, therefore it is essential to wear poolside shoes…and make sure they are clean!
Goggles. A minimum of two pairs of goggles must be with you on poolside. Ensure your goggles fit properly during warm up and do not be tempted to fiddle with them between races. It may be a good idea to take a spare pair up to the beginning of the race in case your normal pair break.
We would advise against portable games machines, MP3 players, Ipads etc., being brought onto poolside. You run the risk of these being damaged or unfortunately stolen.
Please remain on poolside at all times. Do not wander off to see your parents. Some galas do not permit swimmers to go up on the balcony. If you need to leave poolside ensure that you report to the person in charge.
Please behave appropriately respecting your coaches and volunteers, all ASA officials, gala rules i.e. remaining silent at the start of the races and other clubs and your team members.
What to eat
Fruit, cereal bars, jaffa cakes, bread and pasta should be packed in a lunch box to be snacked on through the day. Any food containing high levels of fat should not be eaten. It is important that appropriate food is brought for day long galas and eaten!
Take plenty of water and fruit squashes.
NOT PERMITTED: fizzy drinks such as Red Bull, any sweets and chocolate.
Please ensure that you have with you all relevant medication that you may require through the day.
Check List:-
- Enough warm up AND racing costumes/trunks
- Plain Black/Blue Shorts or Tracksuit bottoms
- Club Polo shirt or T-shirt
- Towels
- Poolside shoes
- Silver CSC Hat (take 2 in case one rips)
- Goggles…At least two pairs
- Entry cards/sign in (where necessary)
- Food and drink to last the whole day
- Leave home early to get to the pool on time (you should be on poolside 10 minutes before the warm-up starts)
- Medication
- Positive attitude
Rules for Team Galas
- All swimmers must wear their blue CSC T-shirts & silver hats.
- All selected swimmers must travel by coach (if available) to the venue.
- Please register with the team manager either at the coach before departure or on poolside before the warm-up starts.
- No swimmer leaves the poolside until the end of the gala & the final result is given.
- At the end of the gala all swimmers must sign out with the allotted team manager.
- There may be limited spaces on the coach for parents but after swimmers(32), & support team(6), there will only be a few seats spare.

dude I couldn't agree with you more! they can get a skeletal warhorse/rivendare's deathcharger, scorpion, raptor, kodo and a hawkstrider. What do Horde get? a ram, and a tiger/panther.
This is my response to all this. ARE THOSE PRETTY DEVILSAURS TAMEABLE?

1. Calcium Signaling and Neurotransmitter Release in Adrenal Chromaffin Cells
2. Nicotinic ACh Receptors in Fetal Brain Development and Fetal Nicotine Syndrome
The research program of this laboratory has been focused in two areas: 1. Calcium Signaling and Catecholamine Neurotransmitter Release from Adrenal Chromaffin Cells The adrenal medullary chromaffin cell is a classic neurosecretory cell mediating the sympatho-adrenal acute stress or "fight or flight" response. The chromaffin cells are developmentally homologus with sympathetic neurons in their synthesis, storage and secretion of catecholamine and enkephalin neurohormones. This laboratory is investigating the mechanisms regulating the cytosolic calcium signal for neurosecretion in active secretory zones along the inner plasma membrane. We are investigating several aspects of local calcium homeostasis below the plasma membrane including effects of spatial distribution of Ca2+ channels, the role of mobile and immobile Ca2+ buffers, subcellular diffusional obstacles and Ca2+ efflux by Na-Ca exchange. Computational modeling of the submembrane Ca2+ signal is being used to fit experimental single cell Ca2+ fluorescence imaging data in an effort to determine the properties of endogenous Ca2+ buffers, which in turn control the spatiotemporal properties of the Ca2+ signal at sites of exocytotic neurotransmitter release. 2. Fetal Nicotine Syndrome and the Role of Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors in Cerebral Cortical Development There is an extensive literature showing that fetal nicotine exposure, due to maternal smoking, alters embryonic brain development and results in a variety of pathological effects in the neonate that fall under the heading of the fetal nicotine syndrome. These include a fourfold increased incidence of SIDS, ten's of thousands of cases of tobacco induced abortions, premature deliveries, low birth weight and an increased incidence of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder. Although the mechanisms involved are not well understood, they are thought to be mediated in part by nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the fetal brain. Yet neither the existence of functional nicotinic receptors in early embryonic mammalian brain nor their role in development have been established. We have obtained electrophysiological and Ca2+ signaling data indicating that functional nicotinic receptors are expressed on mouse cerebral cortical cells at early embryonic ages when the cortex consists mainly of dividing stem and progenitor cells. These findings now open up an interesting set of questions concerning the role nicotinic acetylcholine receptors play in early cortical development and the mechanisms underlying how chronic fetal nicotine exposure during maternal smoking may alter such development and lead to the fetal nicotine syndrome. Resolution of these issues forms the long-term goals of this project. We are also interested in the cellular mechanisms contributing to nicotine tolerance and dependence including neuronal adaptive responses to chronic nicotine exposure.

Manish Sisodia: hoisting flag upside down was an accident
Denying that he was insulting the National Flag, Senior AAP leader Manish Sisodia has termed hoisting the flag upside down an accident.
Speaking to ANI, Sisodia said, "I have unfurled over 20 flags at Independence Day celebrations all over my constituency. At one ceremony, the organizers had tied the flag incorrectly, so when I unfurled it, it was upside down."
Denying that he was insulting the National Flag, Sisodia said, "It was a mistake on the part of the organizers. As soon as I saw that the flag was upside down, I berated them, and they immediately rectified their mistake. I take great pride in the Tricolour."
Sisodia also stood by his not wearing a helmet while riding his motorcycle. "In my constituency, there are many lanes where it is impossible to drive a car. To visit those areas, you need to travel by motorcycle and while travelling in these areas, I was interacting with the people, something that is impossible to do while wearing a helmet, he told ANI.
Earlier today, Sisodia, while presiding over a local Independence Day ceremony, had unfurled the flag upside down.

There's a Price For Practice to Make Perfect
We don't run before we walk and we don't give a speech before we learn to talk. I'm sure Micheal Jordon threw up a few bricks before he became quite good at basketball and I'm sure Tiger woods busted 100 a few times before he became one of the best of golfers of all time. I suppose you could also say Chuck Adams messed up a few shots on his way to becoming a very well known and very good archery hunter. Learning to become proficient at something takes time and sometimes a lot of patience and practice as you work through the process. Learning to do anything is a process and if we don't have the drive to be good at something or the patience because of the time its going to take, it'll never get done.
We have three grandsons under the age of one so we are getting some first hand lessons about the process of learning to crawl, to walk, to hit the mouth with a spoon, you name it.
All this was going through my mind the other day when I was walking out to do chores. As I walked by the green metal gate panels I noticed three little holes in the bottom rail. Then I noticed there was another hole in the middle rail and a bit to the left. I was contemplating this as I fed the stud and headed back to the gate when it all of a sudden hit me that that gate was in line with our archery targets. Now I knew Suz had had a bit of a problem with target panic awhile back because she doesn't hide her frustrations well, but to her credit she had hung in there and conquered it.
By this time I was chuckling under my breath as I hooked up the water hose to start the water to fill horse tanks. I screwed the hose on the faucet and lifted the handle and proceeded to get a shower of water all over. With a little more detective work I strung the hose out behind the targets and sure enough, it matched up in line with the target and holes in the gate. I thought back of the first time she shot a bow three years ago when she missed the target by three feet at ten yards the first three times she shot that thing. How many arrows she has shot since I could never guess. All I know is I kept buying more arrows. Since then she has taken a couple of big game animals with her bow and she keeps reporting in so I know she is still shooting.
Todays report went like this. ""I only shot four arrows today. The first at 20 yards was 1/2 inch to the right. The second shot at 30 yards was a half inch low. My third shot was from 40 yards and was a half inch to the left, and my forth shot was from 50 yards and it centered the bulls eye, so I quit. I figured if I tried to improve on that I'd somehow mess it up." I sure wasn't one to argue with her about that.
So if we go through anymore trials of target panic or twitchy fingers, I'll be happy to keep buying hose's and gate panels as she pays the price of time and dealing with the days that get frustrating. Its just a pleasure to me to see all her efforts and determination has given her a few rewarding experiences.

Lincoln Fire and Rescue is trying to determine what caused a garage fire early Tuesday morning.
Acting Battalion Chief Tim Linke said the fire started around 3:15 a.m. at 441 South 38th Street. He says when crews arrived there was heavy smoke and fire coming from a garage.
Linke said initial reports were that there were several propane tanks in the garage, but crews were able to put the fire out quickly.
Linke said crews were able to keep the fire from spreading to the house.
Linke said the homeowner may have some smoke inhalation, and non-life threatening injuries.
Linke said the cause is under investigation.

Huron County has the state's 13th worst jobless rate in the state.
Of the 27,700 people in the county's estimated workforce, 2,700 — or 9.6 percent — were unemployed in June, according to the most recent statistics released this week by the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS). That puts Huron County at No. 13 among Ohio's 88 counties.
The current rate is up a bit from May, when the county posted a 9 percent mark. It's also a bit higher than the 9.1 percent rate posted in June 2012.
Among the state's 88 counties, June 2013 unemployment rates ranged from a low of 4.6 percent in Mercer County to a high of 12.7 percent in Meigs County. Rates rose in all of the 88 counties statewide.
Five counties had unemployment rates below 6.0 percent in June. The counties with the lowest rates, other than Mercer were: Holmes, 5.0 percent; Delaware, 5.3 percent; Auglaize, 5.4 percent; and Union, 5.7 percent.
Meanwhile, six counties had unemployment rates above 10.5 percent in June. The counties with the highest rates, other than Meigs were: Pike, 12.4 percent; Scioto, 11.6 percent; Adams, 11.2 percent; Morgan, 11.0 percent; and Jefferson, 10.6 percent.
Ohio's unemployment rate was 7.2 percent in June 2013, up from 7.0 percent in May, the ODJFS reported. Ohio's nonfarm wage and salary employment decreased 12,500 over the month, from a revised 5,214,000 in May to 5,201,500 in June.
The number of workers unemployed in Ohio in June was 413,000, up from 8,000 from 405,000 in May. The number of unemployed has decreased by 5,000 in the past 12 months from 418,000. The June unemployment rate for Ohio was down from 7.3 percent in June 2012.
The U.S. unemployment rate for June was 7.6 percent, unchanged from the previous month and down from 8.2 percent in June 2012.
Ohio's nonagricultural wage and salary employment decreased 12,500 over the month, from a revised 5,214,000 in May 2013 to 5,201,500 in June, according to the latest business establishment survey conducted by the U.S. Department of Labor (Bureau of Labor Statistics) in cooperation with ODJFS.
Goods-producing industries, at 853,600, lost 5,100 jobs over the month. Decreases were seen in manufacturing (-3,100), construction (-1,900), and mining and logging (-100). Private service-providing industries, at 3,598,300, lost 3,700 jobs. Employment decreased in educational and health services (-3,000), information (-800), professional and business services (-700), trade, transportation, and utilities (-300), and financial activities (-300). Leisure and hospitality added 1,400 jobs. Government employment, at 749,600, decreased 3,700 as the employment decline in local government (-7,100) was partially offset by the employment gain in state government (+3,400); federal government employment was unchanged over the month.
From June 2012 to June 2013, nonagricultural wage and salary employment grew 16,000. Goods-producing industries increased 800 over the year. Manufacturing gained 4,800 in nondurable goods (+2,800) and durable goods (+2,000). Construction lost 3,900 jobs. Mining and logging lost 100 jobs. The private service-providing sector increased 24,200. Gains were posted in educational and health services (+12,300), leisure and hospitality (+11,500), professional and business services (+2,900), and other services (+400). Employment fell in information (-1,900), financial activities (-900), and trade, transportation, and utilities (-100). Government employment decreased 9,000 through losses at the local (-6,700), federal (-2,000), and state (-300) levels.
All data cited are produced in cooperation with the U. S. Department of Labor. Data sources include Current Population Survey (U.S. data); Current Employment Statistics Program (nonagricultural wage and salary employment data); and Local Area Unemployment Statistics Program (Ohio unemployment rates).

"It appears from our study, and other work published previously, that all you need to get CML is that chromosomal translocation and BCR-ABL1 expression," Downing said.
In their new study, the researchers re-examined the genetic makeup of 304 ALL patients who had been studied earlier. The group included 43 pediatric and adult BCR-ABL1 ALL patients and 23 adults with CML. Using a more sensitive technology, the scientists increased the number of genetic mutations found in their original gene survey.
In the first study, the gene most commonly altered was one called PAX5, followed by a gene designated IKZF1. Its protein, Ikaros, is involved in the development and differentiation of B lymphocyte cells, which are part of the immune system.
"The vast majority of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemias are of B-cell lineage," Downing said.
Among the ALL patients, the researchers found an average of 8.79 copy number alterations, a form of genetic change linked to the development and progression of cancer. The most common change was deletion of the gene for Ikaros.
The gene was deleted in 36 (83.7 percent) of the BCR-ABL1 ALL patients, including 76.2 percent of the pediatric and 90.9 percent of the adult cases.
"The loss of the Ikaros gene is a nearly obligatory lesion for the development of BCR-ABL1 ALL," Downing said, "and clearly must be a genetic lesion that is cooperating with BCR-ABL1."
Moreover, a gene known as CDKN2A was deleted in 53.5 percent of the BCR-ABL1 ALL patients, 87.5 percent of whom also had lost the gene for Ikaros. The PAX5 deletion occurred in 51 percent of the BCR-ABL1 ALL patients; and 95 percent of these people were missing the Ikaros gene.
Among the CML patients whose disease converted to ALL, two out of three
had the deletion of the Ikaros gene; a lower percentage of those who
converted to acute myeloblastic leuke

Strategies and Tactics in Organic Synthesis
Edited by
- Michael Harmata, University of Missouri, USA
A classic in the area of organic synthesis, Strategies and Tactics in Organic Synthesis provides a forum for investigators to discuss their approach to the science and art of organic synthesis. Rather than a simple presentation of data or a second-hand analysis, we are given stories that vividly demonstrate the power of the human endeavour known as organic synthesis and the creativity and tenacity of its practitioners. First hand accounts of each project tell of the excitement of conception, the frustration of failure and the joy experienced when either rational thought and/or good fortune give rise to successful completion of a project. In this book we learn how synthesis is really done and are educated, challenged and inspired by these stories, which portray the idea that triumphs do not come without challenges. We also learn that we can meet challenges to further advance the science and art of organic synthesis, driving it forward to meet the demands of society, in discovering new reactions, creating new designs and building molecules with atom and step economies that provide solutions through function to create a better world.View full description

Lytro first announced its camera based on light field technology a few months ago. It sounded like cool future technology at the time, and it still does. The difference between then and now: It's actually available for pre-order. The Lytro camera will ship early next year for $399 (8GB) and $499 (16GB).
Here's the quick official rundown on what the Lytro is:
Lytro lets you take pictures like never before. Unlike a conventional camera that captures a single plane of light, the Lytro camera captures the entire light field, which is all the light traveling in every direction in every point in space.
What this means is that would-be photographers no longer have to worry about focus– at all. It can be completely adjusted post-shutter click. The camera itself is very compact (see photo) and features a 1.5″ touchscreen on the end for framing shots. This is not for people who want to fiddle with setting, it's very straightforward.
Once a photo is snapped, the specialized .lfp file will need to be loaded in Lytro's proprietary software, where it will be uploaded to Lytro's servers for modification and exporting. The basic functionality can be tried right now.

Alabama Supreme Court Reverses $78.4 Million Verdict against Sandoz
Jul 16, 2012
On July 13, 2012, the Alabama Supreme Court overturned a $78.4 million jury verdict in favor of the State of Alabama and rendered judgment in favor of defendant Sandoz, Inc. Lightfoot attorneys Chris King, Nikaa Jordan, and Tenley Armstrong handled the appeal for Sandoz. The case involved claims by the Alabama Medicaid Agency that it had overpaid for generic drugs as a result of artificially inflated prices published by Sandoz. The Court ruled in an 8-1 opinion that the State neither actually nor reasonably relied on the published prices as representing the amounts actually paid by pharmacies for drugs. Rather, the Court ruled that the agency's reimbursement formulas were based on policy choices by the agency with an awareness of what the published prices actually represented. This awareness defeated the State's fraud claim as a matter of law. The Sandoz opinion followed a similar opinion in 2009 involving brand pharmaceuticals in which Lightfoot had represented Novartis. Co- counsel for Sandoz were Michael Gallagher of White & Case in New York and Tabor Novak of Ball, Ball, Matthews and Novak in Montgomery, AL.

Electric Companies Raising Bills For Less Fortunate
March 2, 2011 9:14 AM
Money that was supposed to help the less fortunate with electric bills will instead go to the extra fees.
The Fulton Atlanta Community Action Authority helps low-income Georgians pay their bills. According to Christy Ihrig the reason electric companies like Georgia Power are attaching fees to bills is to collect past due payments.
Residents have stated that Electric Companies should acknowledge that the application process for assistance can take up to two months, and reverse the fees. Georgia Power is estimated to receive $2 million in assistance money.

WILLIAMSBURG, Va. (April 10, 2014) — The Tribe Athletics Department is excited to join the entire William and Mary community in celebrating One Tribe One Day, a 24-hour giving challenge that is intended to honor the wide-ranging impact of private support and to encourage philanthropy among all members of the university community.
Today's event highlights the countless ways that generous donors have significantly impacted the lives of hundreds of current and former Tribe student-athletes both on the field and in the classroom. Just one example of that tremendous impact is conveyed in video feature available above or by clicking here.
Gifts of all sizes make a difference at W&M, as individual contributions of $250 or less collectively brought in nearly $3 million for the university during the last fiscal year.

To celebrate the "clear differences" between the two brands, T-Mobile and Orange, Everything Everywhere is launching new campaigns in early February.
Each will emphasise the network's particular strength – for T-Mobile, this is "brilliant value", whereas Orange "goes that extra mile to give customers more". The campaigns are set to run throughout 2012.
Commenting on the new marketing initiative, Spencer McHugh, brand director for Everything Everywhere said: "We are extremely proud and privileged to be running two of Britain's most famous brands – T-Mobile standing for brilliant value for money, and Orange showing it goes the extra mile to offer customers more. Our assault on the market is underpinned by ensuring our two campaigns are distinct, and relate directly to the needs of the two customer bases".
T-Mobile's campaign is about "celebrating all things British" and so it's hardly surprising it begins with the first of a so-called "What Britain loves" advert. Focusing on the newly-unveiled Full Monty monthly plan which gives you unlimited data, calls and texts, the advert is set in a village and shows an eclectic gathering all celebrating the new tariff.
You can check out the advert in the video below, and don't forget to share your views on it with us.
Of course, this T-Mobile ad has a lot to live up to after the network scooped the number one spot for its 2011 advert for being the most watched online.
Meanwhile, Orange's campaign features a "team of magical ninjas" – to highlight the fact the network is always there when needed. For example, there are Swapables on the Panther plan which gives you free apps each month, including for Sky Sports mobile TV and The Times. Introduced last month, these apps can be changed monthly with 12 different ones available.

(AFP/Getty Images)Lance Armstrong could encounter more legal issues stemming from the evidence presented in the United States Anti-Doping Agency report released Wednesday, according to The New York Times.The USADA report, which accused the seven-time Tour de France winner of leading an illegal doping program with his cycling teammates, also implicates Armstrong for lying under oath during hearings and an arbitration process for an insurance settlement with SCA Promotions of Dallas. The United States Postal Service contracted with SCA for a policy covering Armstrong's $5 million performance bonus for winning the 2004 Tour de France.SCA refused to pay the bonus after a French book published details and allegations of Armstrong doping in 2004. The insurer eventually settled to pay the bonus, plus $2.5 million in interest and Armstrong's legal fees after arbitration.At the time, Armstrong attacked SCA and its founder, Bob Hamman, as well as witnesses, including some members of the cycling community, who testified for the company.On Friday, Jeffrey M. Tillotson, a lawyer in Dallas who represents SCA, said his client would attempt to regain the $7.5 million plus interest."He basically said that we were scum and how dare we criticize him," Tillotson said. "So there is some measure of relief that we can now say that he didn't get away with it forever and, by the way, 'You owe us $7.5 million.' "An attorney for Armstrong, Timothy J. Herman, said the terms of the 2006 settlement prevent SCA from reopening the case."The full and final release that SCA signed put this to bed long ago," Herman wrote in an e-mail message. "SCA agreed it could never challenge or appeal the award anyway or anyhow — ever."Tillotson said Armstrong's lies, as outlined in the agency's report, had changed the understanding that was reached through arbitration.The USADA's report could also give U.S. attorneys reason to reopen a two-year federal investigation closed in February.André Birotte Jr., the United States attorney for the Central District of California, announced in February that he had closed an investigation into Armstrong. He gave no reason for ending the inquiry, which had lasted nearly two years. An inquiry by the Department of Justice, however, is believed to be continuing. Promoted Stories Comments

Q. What makes this church unique?
One of things that we're intentional about is being inclusive. We're literally, as it says, "whosoever will let him come." We want that verse to be the diversity that happens with us. It's a Presbyterian church, but many times people will leave here and they would say, "I didn't know that was a Presbyterian church." The idea is to be inclusive. You can sit beside somebody with a GED and on the other side of you would be a professor from UNCC, a couple of addicts in front of you and people who are in the closet behind you. The uniqueness of C.N. Jenkins is that it is multi-generational. So you're going to intentionally see your parents, your grandparents, your great grandparents and the whole nine.
Q. What is the church's vision?
Our vision is continuing to be an outpost for mission and service. We have a tremendous connection to Ministry of Recovery. We host an NA group on Tuesday and Saturday night, and we host an Alocholics Anonymous group on Monday night. Each of those gatherings can go up to 150 to 250 persons. So in actuality, with those groups, we could have coming through our doors just as many persons as come on Sunday morning. Through the week we host something we call Fine Arts Ministry. Fine arts include dance, art, drama, liturgical interpretations and steel drums. Then we've added an education component to our fine arts, which includes SAT prep and a Spanish and English as a second language. That is one of our tremendous programs. We want to be a regional church where people will not mind driving from some distance to be spiritually fed necause have a sense of community and connection.
Q. What the church's beliefs?
Jesus, family, multiple generations and inclusiveness.
Q. What type of ministries and programs are offered?
As mentioned, in terms of the 12-step program ministry of recovery, intentional outreach to persons who are in transition and that transition will be homeless men, homeless women, persons, as we know now, without jobs. We are engaged in a partnership with Goodwill Industries, and we hope to host them here in a couple of months as they do some job training, they're going through some reorganization remodeling down there, so we hope to bring them in as well. I mentioned the fine arts; we have traditional ministries as it relates to women, men, the missionary circle: men's prayer breakfast, Habitat for Humanity, some projects that will include bridging the gap, tutorial programs, lunch buddy programs and a large AARP chapter that meets on campus. Then we have something called "Wisdom Keepers" again these are seniors, retired persons, who we don't want their reservoir of knowledge to be sitting on the shelf. We also see ourselves as a ministry where persons can explore their call to ministry. I've been here 18 years and we've had 13 persons to go through seminary while being here and we want to continue to make sure that is a place.
Q. What are the greatest strengths of the church?
I think it's its people and their expression and love to God. This is literally a place where we say, borrowing from the Rev. Dr. Jeremiah Wright, "unashamedly black, unapologetically Christian." Your culture, your ethnicity, are affirmed here. You don't have to sugarcoat it, you don't have to water it down. You are African and you are American here.
Q. How do you foster spiritual growth for individuals in the church?
I think that happens through small groups, some intentional and some inadvertent. One thing about spiritual growth, one, the Bible talks about do you want to be made well, and a lot of times we will say, yes, I want to get stronger, I want to grow deep in the word, I want my church to grow, I want my spiritual life to grow, but it's easier said than done. The spiritual growth part comes from intentional bible studies. We have bible studies noonday on Tuesday, Wednesday night is the men's group, Thursday night is the men and women group, a book study kind of group. Also Thursday night is the young adult bible study, it's topical. Tuesday nights, we have something called "Hot Topic" Tuesday which, the old school would call it "old school rap session" which turns into a discussion bible study. So we have those kinds of appendages that's onto the body, then prayerfully as they are fed and nurtured, that will make the body stronger.

Ethics and E-Discovery Panel Revisits Qualcomm Attorney Sanctions
Two of the attorneys involved in the Qualcomm litigation will give a first-hand account of the personal impact of the sanctions proceedings and discuss ethical and procedural challenges faced by lawyers who need to disclose attorney-client communications to defend themselves.
Washington DC – July 5, 2011 – Patrick Oot, General Counsel and Co-Founder of the Electronic Discovery Institute ("EDI"), announced today that a special ethics and e-discovery panel at the 2011 Legal Technology Leadership Summit will reexamine the Qualcomm v. Broadcom e-discovery sanctions opinions, particularly as they affected six of the attorneys representing Qualcomm.
On January 7, 2008, U.S. Magistrate Judge Barbara L. Major of the Southern District of California imposed sanctions on those attorneys for Qualcomm's failure to produce certain electronic discovery (2008 WL 66932). Just under two months later that part of the opinion was vacated and remanded by U.S. District Court Judge Rudi M. Brewster (March 5, 2008, 2008 WL 638108). A little over two years after remand, Judge Major ultimately declined to impose sanctions and dissolved the order to show cause (April 2, 2010, 2010 WL 1336937).
Adam Arthur Bier, the junior-most attorney identified in the 2008 order who went on to found the San Francisco corporate boutique firm Bier Legal, will discuss the impact the order and its aftermath had on him personally and offer some thoughts on ways to avoid such situations. As stated by Bier, "It was, as others have rightly observed, every young lawyer's worst nightmare, made all the more difficult by the fact that it literally took years to obtain an exculpatory ruling."
Frank Cialone of Shartsis Friese LLP who defended several of the six attorneys will discuss the self-defense exception to the ethical rule against disclosing client confidences and will describe what has to be done procedurally and ethically to invoke the exception. Cialone stated, "Permitting lawyers to defend themselves and their reputations while giving due deference to safeguarding client confidences is a delicate balancing act with specific safeguards." Cialone will also suggest ways in which the law firm and the client can work together to avoid such circumstances arising.

LaVar Arrington hasn't been to Redskin Park since last season ended, but he was the focus of attention there yesterday.
Arrington, for six seasons the public face of the franchise, is very much on the minds of the Washington Redskins this week as they prepare to face his new team, the New York Giants, on the road on Sunday.
"LaVar will be out there trying to prove a point, saying, 'Y'all kind of threw me away and thought it was over for me, so I'm going to try to hurt everybody,'" cornerback Shawn Springs said of Arrington, who was a three-time Pro Bowl pick while in Washington. "I know what his attitude is like: 'I'm going to go out there, try to be a wild man and mess everybody up.'"
Arrington and his old Redskins defensive coaches, Gregg Williams and Dale Lindsey, didn't get along. "I'm sure they'll have flowers and candy for each other," linebacker Marcus Washington said.
Asked how much Arrington could help the Giants prepare for the Redskins, Lindsey quipped, "None. He didn't know anything when he was here. What makes you think he'll know something up there?"
Arrington's replacement, Warrick Holdman, sounded a cautionary note. Holdman made little impact in his debut for the Redskins last year against his old team, the Chicago Bears.
"You can't try to make every tackle, try to blow up everybody," Holdman said. "You've got to do your job."
Kicker John Hall, who left the New York Jets for a lucrative contract with the Redskins in 2003, couldn't wait for that year's opener against his former team.
"I had no hard feelings against anybody, and I still wanted to stick it to them," Hall said. "LaVar's a great guy. He had a good career here. It's sad the way things ended. Just knowing you're going to play in that game, the whole week it seems like you get more energy during practice."
Salave'a returns
Joe Salave'a, who missed the past two games because of a strained right calf, practiced yesterday. Salave'a had practiced last Wednesday and Thursday, then sat out Friday's workout and Sunday's victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Coach Joe Gibbs, however, expects the veteran defensive tackle to start on Sunday against the Giants.
"Hopefully by the end of the week, there won't be too much of a discussion about it," Salave'a said. "My pride is injured a little bit, not being able to get out there with the guys. But from a health standpoint, [it was] probably the best thing."
Right guard Randy Thomas (hamstring) and defensive tackle Cornelius Griffin (hip) each missed some practice work but are listed as probable for the Giants game.
Springs again missed practice, as he has for all but five minutes since undergoing abdominal surgery on Aug. 15. Springs badly strained his right groin during his Sept. 20 return to practice, and he's unlikely to play on Sunday.

Other Inquiries800.445.1900
Anorexia nervosa is a disease; however, unlike many other conditions such as leukemia, HIV, or kidney disease, there is no blood test available to detect its presence in the human body. One diagnostic tool often used by physicians and dieticians is the SCOFF screen, which asks the following questions:
1. Do you make yourself sick because you feel uncomfortably full?
2. Do you worry you have lost control over how much you eat?
3. Have you recently lost more than 15 pounds in a three-month period?
4. Do you believe yourself to be fat when others say you are too thin?
5. Would you say that food dominates your life?
A "yes" answer to two or more of these questions indicates that an eating disorder may be present.
Keeping the above in mind, there is much that can be done to discover whether or not a family member has anorexia. Observation is the first line of defense for any parent. If an adolescent is losing a great deal of weight, or a young child is failing to gain weight at an expected rate, something is probably wrong, especially if she has body image issues or possesses a genuine fear of gaining weight. Other observable signs along the mental-health line are anxiety, depression, or inability to concentrate. At the very least, these children should be seen by the family doctor or a primary care provider. If other medical conditions are ruled out, anorexia should be considered. Remember, children as young as six are currently being diagnosed with eating disorders.
It is important to detect changes in diet and eating habits. This extends to breakfast, snacks, and most importantly, dinner. Most parents already know how key it is for a family to share dinner together, simply as a bonding or catching-up time with one another. Dinnertime is also an opportunity to watch a child eat. When we say eat, we mean the food needs to actually be consumed. A common anorexia behavior is the ability to not eat, while all the time making others think the opposite. A standard technique is to slip food to the family pet, or hide it in a napkin, to be thrown away later. Often, food is pushed around on the plate, to make it appear as though there is less of it at the end of the meal.
If anorexia is suspected, communication is a good place to start. Talk with the young child or adolescent about general subjects such as school, sports, or friends. These conversations may lead to related topics that may elicit more insight regarding feelings and emotions. Do not expect the child to admit to having an eating disorder, because the truth is, they rarely do. This is not a privacy issue, it is the secrecy and deception that is part of the disease. In some cases, the child may be forthcoming and agree to change her behaviors regarding food, get back on the right track and take better care of her health; but again, probably not.
Professional treatment is often required with anorexia. Many people find a good outpatient therapist and are able to engage in counseling while still at home. However, if real change isn't seen in a reasonable amount of time, inpatient treatment is recommended. Remuda Ranch at The Meadows offers age-appropriate Treatment Programs for children, adolescent girls, and adults.
Recovery from an eating disorder is possible. It's happening every day at Remuda Ranch at The Meadows.

Starzyk Designs : Freelance Website DesignAs a web designer for small businesses, I understand the need for small and start-up companies to have a presence on the web. And although a "build-your-own" website program gets your business online quick, the designs are usually templated, generic, and chances are you won't get found by customers.
I enjoy creating fresh, creative and professional websites for companies looking to get their foot in the "internet" door. My websites are hand coded using valid XHTML/CSS, jQuery/JavaScript, and PHP when needed. I like to think I can design for a wide range of clients, but I can let my website examples speak for themselves.
If you have an old, out-dated website, or just started a company and need to get online fast, then I may be able to help. Send me an email and let me know the basic scope of your project. Prices vary immensely based on the client needs, so a preliminary phone call would be necessary. The turn around time on an average website is about 4 weeks.

Hyper-V backup with backup LAN
Hi, our master server and media server are all NBU 7.1 on Windows 2008 R2. We have a few Hyper-V servers (Windows 2008 R2) and want to configure to back up the VMs. We want to back up at Hyper-V level instead of VM host level. My question is:
Is it possible to back up the VMs via backup LAN?
Thanks in advance.
Comments 4 Comments • Jump to latest comment
According to this post: https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/hyper-v-vm-backup-size you have configured your Hyper-V servers to be SAN media servers.
So, data is backed up via SAN and not via LAN, right?
Not sure why/how you want to config a backup LAN?
Supporting Storage Foundation and VCS on Unix and Windows as well as NetBackup on Unix and Windows
Handy NBU Links
Previously we configured the Hyper-V servers as SAN media servers so they can back up the VMs by themselves.
However, we tested and found it does not work in our environment. Due to some strange hardware issue, when the Hyper-V node (SAN media server) backs up VMs via FC connection by its attached tape drives, the backup job will hang.
We spent past two months to troubleshoot this and in the end we gave up. Now we plan to back up the VMs in the Hyper-V nodes by another physical media server which is through LAN. The test backups vis production LAN work fine but we want to explore if it is possible to back up via backup LAN. This is because currently in our environment most of the physcial clients are backed up via dedicated backup LAN. Thanks.
Definately it can be done by host entries , but be more careful and follow all the required procedure to accomplish it ;-)
Ohhh. Seems you want Dedicate backup network to be prioritized instead of Prod network (correct me if my presumption went wrong)
You could use Required_interface and check bptm and bpcd logs if it is moving backup traffic to backup network
For Windows clients use Host Properties in the GUI.
Universal Settings -> Use specified network interface. (IP of backup network)
The Client's Registry will be updated (HKLM -> Software -> Veritas -> NetBackup -> CurrentVersion -> Config)
Check below TN : (Though it is targetted for Exchange but method applies for all windows based application)
let us know if it helpls
