The School of Business and Management Institut Teknologi Bandung (SBM ITB) has five educational programs:
Bachelor's Degree in Management and Bachelor's Degree in Entrepreneurship (Undergraduate Program), Master's Degree in Business Administration (MBA Program), Master's Degree in Science Management (MSM Program), and Doctor's Degree in Science Management (Doctoral Program). There are other divisions as well, such as Center of Innovation, Entrepreneurship, and Leadership (CIEL), Consultancy and Continuing Education (CCE), Center of Knowledge for Business Competitiveness (CK4BC), and Indonesian Business Case Center (IBCC).
SBM received a awards from many institutions. Such as Indonesian Best B-School 2009 from SWA Magazine, Indonesia Best School of Management 2013 from Mix Marketing Magazine, KIN Award 2013 in recognition of the continuous commitment in innovation, and many more. We also strongly encourage and support our students to have global careers. Numbers of SBM students' achievements in national and international competition, such us in L'oreal Brandstorm competition, SBM always on top three national team these recent years. The highest achievement in 2011, when Ganesha Team got the 3rd place among 45 countries at Paris.
In national level, the accreditation process for each program study should follow the requirement by BAN PT-is an independent accreditation agency for higher education, directly responsible to the Minister of Education and Culture, Republic of Indonesia. In international level, the accreditation process that have been pursued by SBM is ABEST21 (The Alliance on Business Education and Scholarship for Tomorrow, a 21st century organization) for MBA program study, and will be aim for other international accreditation, such as: AACSB (The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business), EQUIS (European Quality Improvement System), and AMBA (Association of MBAs).
What distinguishes SBM with other educational institutions? We do not look at hard-skills (data processing, etc) as everything, even success itself depends more on soft-skills (ability to work in teams, leadership, etc). To us, studying is not necessarily attending lectures. Effective learning occurs in discussions and in practices.
Students of the Bachelor's Degree in Management are obliged to create a company funded by a loan from a reputable private bank. They study business by running it. Not only they learn the theories, but they also apply the theories by developing their soft-skills simultaneously. This is the concept that inspires a number of universities throughout Indonesia.
The education in business and management is very strategic for the national development. Realizing this, Lembaga Pengembangan Perbankan Indonesia (LPPI) helped us to further develop the MBA education in Jakarta, that resulted in Executive MBA in Sharia Banking & Finance in Jakarta. These programs completed the similar collaborations we have with PT Chevron Indonesia, PT Freeport Indonesia, PT Angkasapura II, and PT Krakatau Steel.
Furthermore, the international setting was supported by the presence of international students and lecturers in our daily activities at SBM. We hope there will be more international students enrolling at our school in addition to the students from our partner institutions: University of Groningen (Holland), University of St. Gallen (Switzerland), Nanyang Business School (Singapore), Tokyo University of Science (Japan) and many more universities.
In order to strengthen the dynamics and the knowledge exchange, we invited several Visiting Professors from all over the world. Until the present time, there were Mark Marrison, Ph.D (Daniel Webster College, New Hampsire); Prof. C.W. Watson (Kent University, UK); Prof. Richard W. Moore (California University, USA); Prof. Larry Michaelsen (Central Missouri State University, USA); Prof. Rushami Yusoff (Universiti Utara Malaysia); Prof. Deguchi and Prof. Kijima (University of Tokyo), just to name a few.

VOD Distribution is going to change the world.
That was the thought running through my head a few years back when I watched a James Bond movie on my very small iPod. It was a time when video on demand distribution was new. The idea of consuming media without a physical DVD seemed weird.
As a filmmaker, I was adjusting to the new paradigm… Video on demand distribution allowed me to directly access my audience. I hadn't yet realized that we had the power.
Like many filmmakers with an independent movie and no deal, I received countless offers to give up my VOD distribution rights to bottom-feeding distribution companies. The offer was seductive. These aggregators promised inclusion on Amazon and iTunes and other anonymous marketplaces.
In exchange for almost no money, I was offered the the validation of acceptance. All I had to do was sign over my rights… And if I refused, what could I do?
This got me thinking. Let's pretend I wasn't seeking VOD distribution for my movie. Let's pretend instead that I wanted to open my own frozen yogurt shop. Would I still ask permission to sell my yogurt? Probably not. Instead of asking someone to sell my yogurt for me, I would pick up a sign, pass out flyers and get press coverage. I would partner with other complementary businesses. I would work to get people into my store.
Why should the independent movie business be any different?
Yet as filmmakers, we have the tendency to fork over our rights based solely on the promise of some crappy distribution deal. Don't get me wrong – the key word is CRAPPY. If you are fortunate enough to get a good deal, you should take it. But if all you're getting is crap – like those traditional deals that snag your rights for seven years and never pay.
Why do filmmakers accept crappy video on demand distribution deals?
Because in the old days we have been conditioned to believe that adding a middleman will magically create revenue beyond what the filmmaker could otherwise create on their own. And that's stupid.
These days you can sell your movie directly to your audience.

Serial Plymouth shoplifter appears in court for 182nd time
Posted: October 27, 2012|
AN ALCOHOLIC who has committed more than 300 offences over half a century has been jailed yet again on his 182nd appearance in court.
Serial shoplifter Robert Knowles, 65, stole whisky a day after being released from his previous prison sentence, Plymouth Crown Court heard.
He was released on bail despite his record and stole more alcohol from another shop four days later.
Now a judge has sent Knowles back to prison for 12 months.
Recorder Robin Belben said: "This is the 182nd time you have appeared before the courts, nearly all of them for shoplifting in recent years.
"You have been caught in a revolving door over the last two or three years. You commit an offence, you go to prison and you commit another as soon as you are released."
Knowles had earlier admitted theft of whisky miniatures worth £10 from Tesco on September 20.
He also pleaded guilty to theft of two bottles of whisky, chicken and clothes worth £80 from Marks and Spencer on September 24.
Knowles has chalked up something like 330 offences since 1959, when he was sent to an approved school around the age of 13.
David Gittins, for the Crown Prosecution Service, said Knowles was arrested in the New George Street branch of Tesco with £160 in his pocket.
He was released on bail but only four days later was spotted by security staff in Marks and Spencer. The court heard that this time he was arrested and kept behind bars.
Llewellyn Sellick, for Knowles, said he had been staying at a hostel in Stonehouse and had money from his prison discharge grant at the time of the first offence.
He added that before the second offence his money had been stolen by some people he had met on the Barbican.
Mr Sellick said: "He has become institutionalised by the way he has spent his life. He knows he is going back to prison again today. There is nothing probation can do."
He added that Knowles did not receive a pension, which his solicitors were trying to resolve, so he would at least have money on his release.

Sometimes, life hits us in ways we never expect. Ten years ago, I received a heart transplant and a new life to explore and live. While generally healthy since, it isn't always wine and roses. But the fact that every day is a new day, a new dawn I never thought i'd have has turned me into a positive, optimistic 50 year old guy.
I know that taking a chance with someone who my history can be scary. But in today's medical world, we are blessed with long term health and a real future. Perhaps we aren't who we thought we'd be at 50. But if we were, it would be boring.
So, I suppose everyone has their own story to tell and I'm no different. I have my good points and I'm sure I have my less than great points also. On the positive side I'm a mensch and I truly do care about people. I'm honest (or at least I try to be), affectionate and chivalrous. But most of all, I'm a very open person. There aren't many layers you need to get through to know me. I'm very optimistic and confident and I always try to see the good in people. Of course, these profiles only show the side we want them to show and I get that. But I do believe that with me, what you see is what you get. I enjoy driving out on the open road and I'm equally comfortable staying on the couch, snuggling with the one I love. Since I don't have to list my faults, I won't. But I am someone who is not so arrogant to believe that I have nothing to work on. One thing I know for sure is that the woman I love will be treated with love, kindness, respect and deep affection. I don't like to play emotional games and I guess if I have to say a fault it's that I wear my heart on my sleeve, which is ironic since I'm also a heart transplant recipient (9 years and going very strong).

2013 is the year of the 'phablet'
- From: News Corp Australia Network
- January 18, 2013
IT works like a phone, looks like a mini tablet and sounds like something out of Doctor Who - it's the "phablet", and it's coming to a pocket near you in 2013.
The phablet - a combination of a mobile phone and tablet - has been forecast as the hottest gadget of the year by Deloitte in their annual Technology, Media and Telecommunications (TMT) Predictions report released today.
Deloitte lead telecommunications partner Stuart Johnston said the phablet - epitomised by phones with screens five inches or larger - would become "the uber cool device of 2013".
Deloitte lead media partner Clare Harding said contrary to previous years when micro-sized devices were all the rage, consumers were now demanding supersized phones with larger screens.
"It's the size of the screen that is driving the phablet appetite," she said.

Dave Franco is a good addition to the cast of Scrubs 2.0
Now I never saw Superbad, but due to my esteemed position here at the Squad, I did get to review the awful Do Not Disturb, that featured Franco as well. In that, he was arrogant and cocky and lazy, which sounds pretty similar to what he'll be getting up to in Scrubs. More importantly, he played that role very well. I found myself wanting to slap him across the face several times. Partially because he was in such a terrible show, sure, but also because of his portrayal.
We never really got the background of that character, but his entitled whining here is because his family donated a wing to the school. I can already see the friction between him and Dr. Cox. On Scrubs 1.0, he'd have been fired immediately like Aziz Ansari (Parks & Recreation) was, but now Cox will have to put up with his crap.

Block over the content of a slide - Beamer
Hi all,
I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this question, but here I go :)
I'm preparing a presentation using Beamer, and I'd like to place a "block" box over the content of a slide.
For example, consider this two-column slide frame:
I want to put the "Hello! block" on the middle of the slide, over the text and the image. Is there a way to do that, like specifying a (x,y) position?
I googled this "problem", but I couldn't find any solution. Apparently, I'm the first one who wants to do that :D
I appreciate any help. Thanks in advance!
Re: Block over the content of a slide - Beamer
Hi there,
What do you mean by a block??? Do you want to add a simple itemize square figure, that you can define in a list environment??? Otherwise, you will have to be more precise on your request, because I don't understand.
Re: Block over the content of a slide - Beamer
In Beamer, a "block" is a framed text with a title.
Here is an example (slide 50): http://faq.ktug.or.kr/wiki/uploads/beamer_guide.pdf
I just want this framed text to cover the text/figures/lists/whatever the slide has when I forward one slide.
You know, I just want to emphasize something in my presentation, and I think this would be the best way.
Thanks for your reply ;)

Obstructive Genitourinary Defect
Condition Description
Obstructive genitourinary defects are congenital narrowing or absence of urinary tract structures at any level of the system. These conditions are the most common congenital defect of any organ system. The severity of the problems for the child depends on the degree and level of the obstruction. There are a number of kinds of obstructions, depending on the location and severity. For example, the most common type of obstruction is at the uteropelvic junction (UPJ), an obstruction that occurs between the ureter and the kidney at the place they join. Urine does not easily pass through the ureter and consequently it backs up through the renal system. The second most common obstruction is where the ureter enters the back wall of the bladder, the ureterovesicular junction (UVJ). UVJ obstruction, which usually involves only one kidney, will result in backflow and enlargement of the ureter (called megaureter).
Any type of urinary tract obstruction will interfere with normal fetal development, and the degree of damage depends on the severity of the obstruction. The spectrum of fetal injury depends on the type, degree and duration of the obstruction. In unborn babies with high-grade obstruction, urine output is decreased, leading to lack of amniotic fluid (called oligohydramnios). The lungs also will not develop properly due to the lack of amniotic fluid. In fetuses with posterior urethral valve obstruction, the most common cause of fetal obstructive uropathy, nearly 30% will develop renal failure by childhood.
A far less serious kind of obstruction in the urinary system is called phimosis, which is congenital or acquired (inflammatory) constriction of the foreskin, which then cannot be retracted. Paraphimosis is a term describing inability of the foreskin to be retracted.
Finally, another obstruction affects the valves between the urethra and the bladder, which can also be a site of obstruction (posterior urethral valves). Obstruction of urine flow between the bladder and the urethra may be severe and may lead to bladder malfunction, pressure build-up in the renal system, and kidney damage.
This group of common birth defect occurs in around 1 in 350 babies, and the prevalence appears to be modestly increasing. If the obstruction is in both kidneys (bilateral UPJ) the outlook is poor because hydronephrosis in typically severe. These conditions do run in families, indicating some degree of genetic cause, though the actual cause is unknown.
Common Associated Conditions
Symptoms include recurrent urinary tract infections and may also include impaired growth. Hydronephrosis, which is kidney damage, is a frequent result of an obstruction in the urinary system.
Short-term Treatment and Outcomes
Obstructive defects of the renal pelvis (within the kidney itself) can sometimes be detected on ultrasounds during pregnancy. Once the baby is born, renal ultrasound is needed to confirm the extent of the obstruction. It is important to correct this problem by relieving the obstruction as soon as possible to maximize normal kidney function. The blockage in the urinary drainage system is surgically corrected. Back-flow of urine in the system is diagnosed using a test called a voiding cystourethrography (VCUG). A scope can also be inserted into the urethra and into the bladder and ureters.
Phimosis or paraphimosis is easily corrected with circumcision. When either condition is present, the result of surgery is excellent.
Long-term Treatment and Outcomes
Long-term follow-up with a urologist and/or nephrologist (if there is kidney damage) will be very important so that any complications can be detected promptly and treated. High blood pressure is always a concern with any urinary tract disorder, and that can affect many body systems as well as do ongoing damage to the kidneys.
Common Complications
Any obstruction in the renal system will cause urinary stasis that may result in impaired renal function (hydronephrosis), infection and calculus formation (kidney stones, also called renal calculi).
Sexual disability or infertility can result, especially in males. Possible complications of surgery include infection and trauma to structures of the urinary system.
Implications for Children's Development
Children may have multiple surgeries and invasive tests that can be uncomfortable and frightening. Their fears and anxieties must be acknowledged and they need family and professional support. Their growth needs to be monitored regularly since the kidneys produce chemicals that stimulate growth and this can be affected if the kidneys are damaged.
Children should be taught simple information about their condition and treatment, using terms that they can understand. Books and dolls can help children understand how their bodies work. They should be encouraged to ask questions about their bodies and the treatments and tests. Children do not need a great deal of detailed information but rather they require reassurance and explanations that are tailored to their age and understanding.
They need to be helped to understand that blood tests and uncomfortable procedures are necessary to help them feel better, even though they experience temporary pain or discomfort. Play therapy can assist young children to express their fears and feelings and can reveal misunderstandings they may have about their condition or treatment. Reliable information and support resources for parents is available online.

Wisconsin's affable assistant coach Kevin Patrick is in his fifth year with the Badger hockey program.
Patrick's time with the Badgers began with a bang during the 2005-06 season. In just his first year on the staff, he helped direct the Badgers to the sixth NCAA championship in school history.
Patrick joined the Badgers from Bowling Green, where he served as an assistant coach from 2002-05. While with the Falcons, he oversaw the team's defense, evaluated game tapes, monitored the team's academic progress, scouted and recruited potential student-athletes throughout North America and worked with alumni and the community. His accomplishments at BGSU include helping the Falcons improve steadily, going from eight wins his first year, to 16 victories his final season; recruiting members of the 2005 CCHA All-Rookie Team; and helping the team earn its first league winning mark in nine years and its first home ice for the CCHA playoffs in 10 seasons.
Prior to his time with the Falcons, Patrick spent four seasons at Union College as an assistant coach. He began his time at Union working with the team's forwards and defensemen, coordinating the team's strength and conditioning program and ordering the team's equipment. Over his final three years, he became the team's recruiting coordinator. Throughout his time with the Skating Dutchmen, he watched the team go from three wins during his first season to 13 in his last season. During his tenure, his recruits were chosen to the 2002 and 2003 ECAC All-Rookie Teams.
Patrick is familiar with part of the UW coaching staff, having served the 1997-98 season as assistant head coach and assistant general manager under current UW assistant coach Mark Osiecki while with the Green Bay Gamblers of the USHL.
He got his start in coaching from 1993-97 during a four-year stint as assistant coach at Deerfield Academy in Deerfield, Mass. The team went 63-21-4 during his stay, qualifying for the New England tournament in 1994, 1995 and 1996. While at Deerfield, he served three years as assistant athletic director and two years as a science teacher.
Patrick graduated from the University of Notre Dame in 1992 with a bachelor's of science degree in pre-professional studies. He was a four-year defenseman for the Fighting Irish hockey team, captaining the program during his final two seasons. He also played lacrosse for two seasons, helping Notre Dame qualify for the 1990 NCAA Division I Lacrosse Tournament. He resumed his education and earned a master's degree in sport management from Massachusetts in 1998.
Following his graduation from Notre Dame, Patrick played one season of professional hockey, suiting up for the New Haven Senators of the AHL, the St. Thomas Wildcats of the CoHL and the Green Bay Ice of the AHA. He was selected to the 1993 American Hockey Association All-Star Team.
A former member of the Board of Governors for the American Hockey Coaches Association (2004-06), Patrick now serves as the vice president of convention planning. At USA¿Hockey, he spent 2004 and 2005 coaching at the USA Select 17 Festivals and also coached at the 2002 USA Select 16 Festival.
Married to his wife, Julie, the couple have two sons, James and John.

Document Number: 7037Involving Families in High School and College Expectations MS Word PDF - While the vast majority of today's high school students � and their parents � anticipate they will attend college, far too many students lack knowledge about the essential steps that must be taken to make the high school to college transition. This ECS Policy Brief provides a synthesis of the research on the college aspirations of many students and their parents today, as well as the documented lack of information far too many families possess on the necessary steps to make the transition from high school to postsecondary. The brief identifies current state policies that address each of the steps necessary to negotiate the bridge from high school to college, and highlights a Texas policy aimed at annually evaluating the accessibility and affordability of public postsecondary institutions in the state.

Anions are ubiquitous in the Natural world. Chloride anions are present in large quantities in the oceans; nitrate and sulfate are present in acid rain; and carbonates in biomineralised materials. Anthropogenic anions including pertechnetate, a radioactive product of nuclear fuel reprocessing, and phosphate and nitrates from agriculture and other human activities, constitute major pollution hazards. Anions are also critical to the maintenance of life. Indeed, without exaggeration, the recognition, transport or transformation of anions is involved at some level in almost every conceivable biochemical operation. It is essential in the formation of the majority of enzyme–substrate and enzyme–cofactor complexes as well as in the interaction between proteins and RNA or DNA. ATP, phosphocreatine and other high-energy anionic phosphate derivatives, power processes as diverse and important as biosynthesis, molecular transport and muscle contraction while serving as the energy currency for a host of enzymatic transformations. Anion channels and carriers are involved in the transport of small anions such chloride, phosphate and sulfate and thus serve to regulate the flux of key metabolites into and out of cells while maintaining osmotic balance.
Supramolecular chemistry is the area of chemistry involved with the control of molecular interactions to produce useful new devices and molecular assemblies. Our work in molecular recognition involves the design and synthesis of smart molecules for use as receptors or sensors for other ionic (in our group frequently anionic) or molecular species. Design is at the heart of our work – we are frequently inspired by biological systems – but are not limited by them – we ultimately design and make new molecules ourselves that allows us to explore a wide range of molecular geometries and functional groups (and is a lot of fun!). So we can take a molecule from the drawing board through to use as a sensor, selective extraction agent or membrane transport agent for a particular chemical species. A wide range of skills are need to do this including synthesis and also the ability to study how molecules interact with each other using NMR and UV/vis spectroscopies, isothermal titration calorimetry and electrochemistry. Working with the world-leading crystallographers in the school we also study the structure of receptors and complexes in the solid state. Our specific interests are in the structural chemistry, selective recognition and sensing of anionic species. Anions have historically been neglected species in molecular recognition and it has only been since the late 1980s that significant effort has been devoted to the problem of selective anion complexation and recognition.

"Gossip Girl" is one of those shows full of rich, over-privileged kids living glamorous lives at just 16! You just can't stop watching them in their designer clothes at glamorous…
In its four seasons, "Gossip Girl" music has been some of the best TV soundtrack music on the tube. In many cases, this music was by unknown artists that went…
Fact: Women covered in zombie blood are 48% hotter.
The team responsible for assembling the "Gossip Girl" cast can congratulate themselves for a job well done. Gossip Girl debuted to respectable ratings, and it continues to build and grow…

You might recognize Dreama Walker from "Gossip Girl," which means you watch "Gossip Girl." It's all good though, we understand. Okay, no we don't.
Leighton Meester plays a bad teen on TV's Gossip Girl, but in real life she's just your average prudish twenty-something. At least that's what all the quotes from her say. This seems perfectly believable if you forget that she has a sex tape. A word from Leighton: "When you move from Florida to New York, you're in for a big shock." I know, right?! You can get a pastrami sandwich any time of the night! But other than that they're almost exactly the same. See more of how innocent Leighton is after the jump.
Blake Lively is best known for her role on Gossip Girl. She comes from a showbiz family. She is the youngest of five children, all of whom are actors. They're like the Baldwins, but slimmer and less gravely-voiced. A word from Blake: "I don't want to go to a club and not wear panties." If you want to jump to the head of the line you'll make the sacrifice. And SJ writer Wookie Johnson will thank you for it. More pics of Wookie's unhealthy obsession after the jump.
Where You've Seen Her: If you are a man that has had a girlfriend within the past two or so years (or are just particularly interested in scandalous primetime soap operas), you've probably seen Leighton Meester on TV's "Gossip Girl." If you are a man that has had no girlfriend or affliction for girly shows recently, you might remember her as the smoking hot virgin pop star Justine Chapin on "Entourage." Soon most every guy will probably know her from her highly touted sex tape, which reportedly features her using her feet in creative ways. What a novel concept! A Word From Leighton: "I don't feel guilty at all if I'm just lying around, one of my best guilty pleasures is doing absolutely nothing"Check out a screenshot of the sex tape itself, and other hot (yet less seedy) photos of Leighton Meester after the jump:

Grand Rapids (WZZM) - A Grand Rapids aerospace company has finished its five million dollar expansion.
Paragon D&E on 33rd Street SE added 26,000 square feet to its Grand Rapids facility and outfitted it with advanced equipment to make molds for jet engine components and other parts.
The company has 225 employees and expects to post sales of about $40 million this year. In 2006, only 150 people worked for the company.
The current growth is partly due to the manufacturing of jet engine parts from composite materials.
Paragon's president expects airlines to begin switching from jet engines made mainly of metal alloys to composite materials.
"Basically, most of what the air touches as it travels through the jet engine is starting to be made from composites," Muir said. "Jet engine manufacturers are changing the whole dynamic of how engines operate by significantly increasing their air flow. In many cases, it will be cost effective to tear existing engines off jets and replace them with composite jet engines."
Paragon D&E is in talks or already working with jet engine manufacturers like GE, Pratt & Whitney and Rolls-Royce.
Paragon services the aerospace, oil and gas production, automotive, heavy truck, mining, marine and nuclear waste industries.

Several former workers at Beverage Plus and their supporters visited the company in Maspeth Queens this week to demand that the owner Yun Cho pay the more than $1.2 million owed to the workers from a wage theft lawsuit. Cho was present but did not come out to talk to the workers who then left a letter demanding payment. The company, which has also operated under the names YS Beverage and Grand Beverage, is a distributor in New York City, handling products such as Coca Cola and Poland Spring beverages. It was found liable in 2012 for multiple violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act for unpaid minimum wage and overtime for dozens of workers. The workers are still seeking the payments in court but have also called upon supporters to join their campaign to get the money owed to them. The workers have been long time members of the Brandworkers and NYC Industrial Workers of the World (IWW) campaign to organize and improve conditions in New York City's food production and distribution sector.
Stay tuned for more actions in support of the Beverage Plus workers!

3 of us – hospitality workers employed on zero-hour contracts – have lost our jobs. This is at Friends House London, the head office of British Quakers where – despite the organisation's reputation as a 'good employer' – senior managers responded to objections to the use of zero-hour contracts by getting rid of the three remaining workers employed on them!
Two of us were elected Unite the Union workplace representatives, and a third is a Quaker. One worker has been subject to intimidatory disciplinary processes; we all feel we've been targeted for being principled and outspoken at work; and our health has suffered.

|N.C. rethinking Electoral Votes
|Written by Lauren Ohnesorge
|Wednesday, 25 July 2007 21:10
North Carolina may eliminate its winner-take-all
method of electoral vote distribution.
The 15 electoral votes could be distributed with a more proportional method. A House election law committee backed a system that could give a candidate one electoral vote for each congressional district he or she carries. The statewide winner would get the remaining two votes. Democratic supporters hope the change would encourage Democratic presidential nominees to compete in North Carolina. Republicans accuse Democrats of using the bill to attempt to eliminate their hold on the state's electoral votes. The bill, which has already met Senate approval, next heads to the full House.

Title: Digital Beamforming Synthetic Aperture Radar (DBSAR) Polametric Upgrade
Author: Rafael Rincon
Organization: NASA Goddard Space Flight Center
For several years NASA/GSFC has been investing through internal research and development (IRAD) in the development of a new generation airborne L-Band radar system known as the Digital Beamforming Synthetic Aperture Radar (DBSAR). DBSAR combines advanced radar technologies, real-time on-board processing, and innovative signal processing techniques in order to enable multi-mode radar techniques in a single radar architecture. Although DBSAR's original configuration had a dual-polarization antenna, the rest of the system had been designed for single polarization operation. Nevertheless, polarimetric measurements provide more accurate estimates of important scientific parameters and are critical in supporting future airborne and spaceborne applications.
DBSAR's upgrade to polarimetric operation was accomplished through an ESTO awarded project aimed at enhancing DBSARís capability as a science instrument. Two polarimetric designs were chosen after considering several design options. The first approach modified the existing radar architecture to enable interleaved polarimetric operation (e.g., sequentially transmit and receive horizontal and vertical polarizations). Although this option did not provide the full polarimetric capability, it was less risky, made use of a proven architecture, and provided all radar polarizations in a sequential manner. The second approach developed new polarimetric L-band transceivers that can enable a full polarimetric operation (e.g., simultaneously transmit and receive orthogonal polarizations). The new transceivers were to be designed on printed circuit boards and made use of surface mount miniature components, reducing the size by a factor 4 while exhibiting an RF performance similar to the exiting transceivers.
Both approaches were successfully carried out and will be demonstrated in 2011/2012 campaigns as the DBSAR system is flown on board of the NASA P3 aircraft over forest on the US East Coast to characterize biomass and ecosystem structure, as well as planetary analog terrains.

Villa Carlotta
Villa Carlotta is a villa in Northern Italy on Lake Como. It was built for the Milanese marquis Giorgio Clerici in 1690 and extends over a 70,000 m2 (17 acres) area in Tremezzo, facing the Bellagio peninsula. An Italian garden with steps, fountains and sculptures was laid out at the same time. Among the statues, Mars and Venus by Luigi Acquisti is remarkable.
The architect who designed the villa is unknown. It was completed in 1745 and remained in the hands of Marquis Clerici until 1795, when it passed by marriage to the banker and Napoleonic politician Giambattista Sommariva, who added a pediment and clock. In 1843, it was given as a wedding present by Princess Marianna of Prussia to her daughter Charlotte, Duchess of Saxe-Meiningen, after whom the villa is named.

This apple bread pudding is made with panettone, an Italian specialty bread with raisins and almonds. It's a sweet treat perfect for the holidays.
To say I was excited when I received a Bauducco Panettone as part of the Foodbuzz Tastemakers program would be a huge understatement.
You see, panettone epitomizes the holiday season in my family. I'm pretty sure 95% of Americans have no idea what Panettone even is but for me, it's Christmas and New Year's morning, bounding down the stairs and being more excited to cut into the loaf of bread than open presents (yes, it's that good).
I grew up in a very Italian American family. Sunday dinners of "macaroni & meatballs" were at grandma & grandpa's for years during our childhood, Christmas Eve was celebrated with the 7 fishes (or close to it), my great-grandma called my brother "Adriano" instead of Adrian and bought us all underwear for Christmas, and panettone, which originated from the area of Milan close to where most of my mother's side of the family comes from in Italy, was eaten Christmas morning for breakfast and usually again on New Year's if we were lucky enough to have 2 loaves that year.
I can remember trying to describe panettone to my friends growing up and struggling to find the words to adequately convey the deliciousness this "bread" is.
It's sweet, it's cakelike, it's moist (when they're fresh), it's buttery. Honestly, it's perfection in a bite. I'm sure the childhood memories that accompany the bread add a bit of bias to my opinion of it but, if you don't like this stuff, you're just not human.
Considering I've had many pieces of panettone in my lifetime already and know I love it, I wanted to do something different with this one. Something that highlighted the amazing sweetness and flavor to the bread but also honored the fall season we're in right now. And that's how this apple bread pudding was born.
It was like a trip down memory lane with each bite being simultaneously transported back to Christmas as a kid and picking apples in the fall. The sweetness of both the bread and the apples is incredibly warming both literally and figuratively. I'm sorry if this sounds cheesy and you're sitting here reading this thinking "is she seriously waxing poetically about bread right now?" but yes, yes I am. Panettone has this nostalgic effect on me that makes me remember everything good about family & youth and any food that can do that deserves some love.
- 1 lb panettone bread, cut into 1 inch cubes
- 1 apple, chopped into ½ inch cubes
- ¼ cup golden raisins, plumped in warm water
- 1 cup milk
- 1½ cup almond milk
- 1 tablespoon molasses
- 3 eggs
- ⅓ cup sugar
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon nutmeg
- ⅛ teaspoon ginger
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- sliced almonds for topping (optional)
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Toast bread cubes on baking sheet for 10-12 minutes, tossing once.
- Grease 9x13 baking dish generously.
- Combine bread cubes, chopped apples and raisins in large bowl. In a separate bowl beat eggs and sugar.
- Add in vanilla, spices and salt and beat until combined.
- In a small saucepan on low-medium heat combine milk, almond milk and molasses until just heated, not boiling.
- Slowly beat milk & molasses mixture into egg & sugar mixture.
- Pour bread cubes, apple, raisins into greased baking dish.
- Pour egg & milk mixture over top and coat bread cubes evenly.
- Top with sliced almonds if using and let sit for 5-10 minutes before baking in oven for approximately 35-40 minutes.

Omg that bread pudding looks amazing! I've never had apple bread pudding before, yummm :D
I've never even heard of panettone, but that looks amazing.
The food that reminds me of christmas is Swedish tea ring. My grandma always used to make it, but now that we don't go to MI for Christmas, I've been put in charge. My dad says it's not Christmas unless there's tea ring.
Pannetone is when sexy happens on your tastebuds. In a good way.
We had pannetone at an Italian restaurant last year for dessert– it was delicious! And I love ANY sort of bread pudding :-)
I want to eat this. NOW.
My mom married an Italian-Canadian guy about 11 years ago, and so I've only known panettone for that long, but I am so glad he introduced it to us. It is THE BEST, and now we get it every year. It's kind of like if a loaf of bread and an angel food cake and a hot cross bun could sort of simultaneously procreate and create a bready-cakey baby. Americans have already adopted pizza and pasta wholeheartedly; I don't know why panettone hasn't caught on yet.
I think my holiday food association has to be pumpkin pie or English trifle. Always the bad-for-you desserts.
Yum! I love Panetonne – I was lucky enough to discover it when studying abroad in Milan and I've had to have it over the holidays every year since. Do you make your own (if so, I'd love the recipe)? Panettone as a bread pudding is a genius idea!
Our family holiday recipe of choice, though, is an raspberry almond crepe recipe that my mom makes every year for Christmas morning brunch. It is amazing…and it's funny because we never have it any other time of year.
I love how you described that bread and the memories it evokes. It's funny how much food can make memories seem so vivid.
I've never tried pannetone, but it looks so tasty. Being Portuguese, sweet bread always brings back memories. My grandmother and then my mother used to make it for Christmas every year and then again for Easter (although for Easter, a whole raw egg was placed in the center of the dough and cooked in the oven). It was heavenly and I just cannot find a bakery around here that makes one just like it.
I've never tried it, but sounds and looks equally amazing!
Oh my. That looks INCREDIBLE! I'm LOVING the pictures. I see Food Gawker in your future ;)
Ok so insted of panettone for holiday breakfast, you'll have to make the bread pudding
panettone! Lets start with it as dessert for Thanksgiving!
Mmm this looks SO incredibly delicioous! My hubby loves all things apple so I might just have to make this for him soon!
This looks good…!
I made some bread pudding with mine, too! I just used the recipe they provided though :)
I had never heard of Panettone when I received it!
Hi Gina! I'm checking out your blog for the first time and LOVE that you have a panettone recipe today! I studied abroad in Florence and first experienced this treat there – I still buy it at holidays when I see it in the huge tall cartons in specialty stores. I never considered making it myself but I know I would love spending an evening in the kitchen, my Italian pop music circa 2004 cranked up on my iPod, baking this treat. Thanks for including it :)
I've never had bread pudding before but this looks SO delicious!
that looks so good and you were a better chef than me…we just ate the bread we received…no amazing recipes like yours were created with what I received..ha! :)
Oh my, this looks amazing and it's been ages since I made bread pudding. Just thinking about the warm gooeyness makes me want to run to the kitchen!
I know you watch the Food Network so you'll totally get this, but this was such a good post! It's like watching that Food Network show where you are watching someone make a delicious meal while talking about a past experience and how it reminds them of their childhood. I have NO idea what Penettone is, but after reading this, I'm DYING to try it.
Oh my, this looks amazing and it's been ages since I made bread pudding. I've never even heard of panettone, but that looks amazing. My hubby loves all things apple so I might just have to make this for him soon!
Kind of, but more cakelike and less breadlike. My grandma always used to make it, but now that we don't go to MI for Christmas, I've been put in charge.
[…] officially declare it savory week over here. There have been quite a few sweets recently and I think we all need a little reprieve, […]
[…] course this has to do with food…Christmas morning we always opened a fresh panettone and it would honestly rival opening presents as a kid. It's that good. You have to try one if you […]

First Copper river salmon arrive at Sea-Tac
An Alaska Air Cargo plane from Cordova touched down Friday morning and the pilots emerged with a 48-pound king salmon. They carried it down a red carpet and delivered it to three chefs for a ceremonial cook-off at Sea-Tac Airport.
The plane carried 24,100 pounds of salmon that were caught Thursday when the commercial gillnet season opened in Prince William Sound.
This is the first shipment of the prized salmon this year headed for restaurants and grocery stores, and the event is celebrated by Alaska Airlines as a rite of spring.
The Alaska Department of Fish and Game estimates the seasonal harvest at 1.6 million Copper River sockeyes, 22,000 kings and 280,000 pinks.
At least five more fish-filled Boeing 737s from Cordova were carrying Copper River salmon Friday to Seattle, Anchorage and throughout the United States, the airline said. The flights carry fresh fish from three Alaska seafood processors: Copper River Seafoods, Ocean Beauty Seafoods and Trident Seafoods.
Anchorage-area restaurants also were welcoming the salmon Friday at Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport. Copper River Seafoods delivers a ceremonial first fish to seven downtown Anchorage restaurants.
The Sea-Tac cook-off was won by John Howie, owner of Seastar Restaurant & Raw Bar, who bested two other chefs again to defend his 2013 title.
Copper River salmon are highly prized for their oil content and flavor.
Last year, Copper River salmon accounted for 1 million pounds of the 24.5 million pounds of fresh Alaska seafood Alaska Airlines carried to the Lower 48 states.
"Making that happen within 24 hours after the fish is pulled from the water is no small feat," said Betsy Bacon, managing director of Alaska Air Cargo. "Hundreds of employees from across the state of Alaska, Seattle and beyond spend months getting ready for the busy summer fish season."
