Prosecutors and defense attorneys could present their closing arguments this afternoon.
The defense rested its case early today in the double murder trial of Ryan Wyngarden, while the prosecution called an expert in glass breakage to the stand before lunch.
The expert testimony is expected to wrap up this afternoon.
Prosecutors and defense attorneys could present their closing arguments this afternoon.
Wyngarden faces two charges of first-degree premeditated murder for the 1987 deaths of Gail and Rick Brink in their Ransom Street home and will serve life in prison if convicted.
The prosecution says Wyngarden killed Gail and her husband, Rick Brink, out of jealously and to cover up an incestuous relationship when the siblings were teens.
Wyngarden's defense has said the couple could have been killed in a case of mistaken identity because the previous owner of the Brink house dealt drugs brought from Detroit.
This morning, Ryan Wyngarden finished three days on the witness stand marked by rambling stories, objections from attorneys and comments from Judge Jon Hulsing about "antics" in front of the jury.
Prosecuting attorney Lee Fisher continued quoting letters Wyngarden sent from the Ottawa County Jail to his wife Pam, who has said her husband confessed to the murders. Fisher said the letters and phone calls were designed to influence Pam through Bible quotes, prayers, threats of lawsuits and intimate details.
Wyngarden included explicit descriptions of love making to try to entice his wife to change her mind, Fisher said.
"I put something in about being good in bed," Wyngarden said, saying he was "dynamite" with sex.
"You were trying to get her to change her testimony, weren't you?" Fisher asked.
Wyngarden said he was often emotional when he wrote the letters to his wife, family and friends.
When questioned by his defense attorney David Hall, Wyngarden denied earlier police interviews that the sexual relationship with his sister resulted in penetration.
When asked if he killed Gail and Rick Brink, Wyngarden said no.
The jury asked the judge about 15 questions regarding Wyngarden's testimony, from where he spent the night after the murders and why he canceled an appointment with a friend in Muskegon, to if he thought about killing Gail and Rick Brink.

Apple May Release All-Glass iPhone
The patent explains Apple now has the rights covering "An electronic device [which] may have a glass housing structures. The glass housing structures may be used to cover a display and other internal electronic device components. The glass housing structure may have multiple glass pieces that are joined using a glass fusing process."
"Multiple planar glass members may be fused together to form a five-sided box in which electronic components may be mounted… Opaque masking material and colored glass may be used to create portions of the glass housing structures that hide internal device components from view," the patent's description continues.
Of course on the surface making an iPhone from glass would not make sense, as it could easily crack. So we most probably have to do with Sapphire here.
Earlier this week an iPhone 6 video leaked and confirmed long time rumours that the new handset will have a Sapphire crystal display.
Sapphire withstands vigorous scratch attempts by keys and a knife, but it also also bends.

Village, town reach agreement on police
Story and photo by Terry Duffy
With the winds and rains of Hurricane Sandy pelting on the outside, the Village of Lewiston trustees and Lewiston Town Board met inside Monday at Lewiston Town Hall, and there were degrees of storminess felt at both sides of the table.
Discussed that night in what became two separate meetings were differences on water and police operations financials between the village and town. Water came up first, followed by a hastily called, but lengthy, executive session over police.
And consensus wasn't exactly flowing on either issue. In fact, the dialogue between the town and village grew contentious at times, particularly when it came to water funding.
It opened with village Mayor Terry Collesano reporting the town had "made an offer." He said it was a "doable situation." With that, Richard San Giacomo, who handles village engineering responsibilities, presented what he called a "Water Rate Analysis, Town versus Village." San Giacomo focused his remarks primarily on "expenses," telling village and town officials, "There's definitely a difference on rates ... a difference on expenses."
Specifically, he pointed to comparisons between the two municipalities where it comes to delivery. San Giacomo reported that water delivered to the village totaled 94,450,000 gallons, while on the town side that figure was 804,314,400 gallons. Delivery costs were compared, and for the village they were significant.
Revealed was such village rate expenses as water administration, $32,163; transmission/distribution, $37,387; and employee benefits, $84,736, for a source of supply total of $204,400. On the town side, the total in the first three rate categories was zero, and a source of supply total was $124,377.50.
"The bottom line is unless village distribution costs can be offset, it would cost the village $59,463 to join with the town," said San Giacomo. He explained that in order to offset village collection costs on this, the town would need to reimburse the village to cover its administration.
That didn't sit too well with town Supervisor Steve Reiter, who questioned village billing procedures and the need for staffing to accomplish this. "The town could absorb this cost through sharing costs (personnel), by having the town pick up the billing," said Reiter. He said administrative costs reduce the savings to village residents.
San Giacomo and village Trustee Bruce Sutherland responded that such an approach would have an obvious impact on personnel. "If costs are absorbed by the village (under this scenario), the village would have to lay someone off; it would put a hardship on village residents," said Sutherland.
"I thought you would have formulated some type of plan to this," responded Reiter.
"That's what we're doing now," said San Giacomo. He said the problem is the village having to absorb employee and benefits costs, noting the aforementioned cost figures of $32,163; $37,387 and $84,736.
"What about village water maintenance contractuals?" inquired Reiter. "When I looked at your budget, after cost, (I see) a possible savings of $150,000," he said, noting that under that scenario the town would absorb one employee into its budget.
Distribution costs could be absorbed, Reiter said. He suggested that the village go back "and sharpen your pencils a little bit to see how you can adjust that $32,000."
Reiter continued, telling Village of Lewiston officials that they need to cover costs more efficiently. Of the town's intent, he said he wants to consolidate billing, absorb one village employee and have the town handle water administration in the village. "When you buy in bulk, utilize in bulk, you make savings," said Reiter.
"It's difficult without stepping on toes," added Town of Lewiston Councilman Al Bax. He suggested the village re-examine its personnel issue, particularly as attrition approaches.
"There is another option or two," piped in Sutherland, telling the group that the village might want to enter into some type of temporary agreement with the town on water costs, followed by a more formal agreement to let "issues work themselves in over a period of time."
Reiter replied he is seeking "a more consolidated water department with everyone paying a more uniform rate." He suggested the village return with a better scenario. "Revisit this and return before budget time," he said.
San Giacomo inquired on whether such a scenario would involve the town taking over village assets. Reiter and Town of Lewiston Attorney Mike Dowd responded that any town-wide district would include the village.
"This could involve assets, necessitate a village referendum," said Sutherland. He again suggested a temporary arrangement might be the best approach.
"The biggest expense is your overhead," returned Reiter.
"Another is giving up the water system," returned San Giacomo. "You are taking over our assets."
Bax explained the town would be merely picking up water and sewer expenses. "Consolidation would be our best approach."
"To have two hubs doesn't make sense," said Reiter.
"Consolidation is going to require some pain," added Bax.
Questions and disagreements continued with the two boards, on issues such as a village employee working for the town, the impacts on village DPW staffing, the shared jobs between village departments and the cost. In their remarks, Town Board members went to lengths to try to consider the village.
"Look, we all want to work together," said town Councilman Mike Marra.
"We need to equalize rates, costs," said Bax.
And Reiter told village members, "If you have more than one option, we want to look at it."
In response, Sutherland suggested "some type of lease" be worked out between the two municipalities.
"We'd be interested in looking at it," said Reiter. "It's an unusual opportunity to create savings for village residents."
Reiter wrapped up discussion on the matter by commenting that the village "has more questions to answer." He suggested an April 1 date "to finalize things. I'd like a deadline to deal on this."
Sutherland closed by telling Reiter the village intends "to meet soon. We want an agreement."
Moving on to police, discussions opened on a congenial note, but began to turn sour soon afterword.
"We're not too far off here, we can go a long way through discussions," said Collesano. He added the village at first wasn't sure on its figure of $294,500 paid to the town to cover its share of the Lewiston Police nearly $1.3 million budget, noting the town brought that figure back to $240,000, or two payments of $120,000.
"Is that it?" he asked.
Reiter responded the town budget calls for the two payments of $120,000, nothing more. He then began to sound off on what he saw as a lack of communication that has existed between the municipalities over police. What of "all this discussion going on (in the media) without calling us?" asked Reiter. "I'm looking at quotes (in the papers) that weren't true."
Reiter then raised issue on calls for a substation in the village to allay concerns over a lack of LPD presence on village streets. "That's more cost," he charged. "Why?"
"I'm very frustrated, the board is frustrated. We are more than willing to work with you on shared services, consolidation," said Reiter.
Sensing the growing antagonisms brewing, town Councilman Ron Winkley then called for both boards to break and convene into executive session to discuss the matter at length in private.
The session went on for well over an hour. When both sides returned, there was a brief session where it was announced that an agreement in principal over village funding to the town on police had been reached. Reiter said the village has agreed to pay the town a total of $250,000 for the years 2011-12, with $130,000 still owed, and would pay the town $284,000 for 2013-14.
Reiter said the village-town LPD agreement brings with it no changes on police enforcement and that no substation is being considered. He added that Artpark funding assistance "was discussed, but nothing was resolved."
"I have to represent all residents, while trying to protect village residents," said Reiter. "Unfortunately, the village has asked more" of us.

Our goal has always been to create an opportunity that can truly change people's lives.Greg Provenzano, Co-Founder
Founded in 1993, ACN was the vision of four entrepreneurs - Greg Provenzano, Robert Stevanovski, Tony Cupisz and Mike Cupisz. These Co-Founders had countless years of direct sales experience between them, but were dissatisfied with other companies and job opportunities they had encountered. They realized that the only way to find a company they wanted to be a part of was to create that company.
So with a yellow legal pad in front of them, they formulated a business plan. On one side of the page they wrote down everything that they knew worked well, and on the other side everything that didn't. They ripped the page in half and only kept the side that contained what would become the governing principles behind ACN - integrity, solid business practices, and a commitment to always putting the needs of the masses above the needs of themselves.
From that initial paper, a business idea was born that would focus on offering services people need and use every day… services that wouldn't require anyone to change their buying habits or purchase products they didn't need or couldn't afford.
ACN began as a reseller of long distance services in the U.S., but over time has grown to offer all the essential services customers in 25 countries use on a daily basis. ACN is the world's largest direct seller of telecommunications, energy and essential services for home and business, but more importantly, they've provided a vehicle for countless individuals to change their lives. ACN is passionate about giving back to the community as well, and in 2011 the nonprofit organization ACN Global Reach Charities was founded to expand and enhance their charitable efforts.
With that single column on a legal pad, the ACN Co-Founders drew a proverbial line that would set the bar for what ACN would become - and remain long into the future. And those are the same principles that drive the company today, over two decades later.Meet the Co-Founders
Integrity - it's ACN's number one core value and the foundation on which the company was built. And despite its incredible growth, integrity is also what continues to drive every decision our company makes, even 20 years later.
Since day one, ACN's Co-Founders have been committed to ensuring that the company - and its Independent Business Owners (IBOs) - operate with the utmost integrity, adhere to the highest possible ethical standards, and perform under a marketing plan that complies with consumer protection laws while operating their home-based businesses.
ACN is accredited by the Better Business Bureau and holds an A rating. BBB
ACN is a proud member of the Direct Selling Association in the U.S. [DSA] and has been recognized by the Direct Selling Association as going above and beyond to promote the industry's code of ethics. Maintaining a reputation of honesty, integrity and credibility is a badge of honor - and it's one that will always be priority number one for ACN.
Since ACN began in 1993, it's been our hope to leave the communities in which we live, work and play a little better than when we found them. From that commitment, ACN's Global Reach Charities was born, and today our mission of giving back continues, as we cultivate our local roots in and around the Charlotte area, and extend our branches globally, touching communities around the globe.

ACN hosts an annual celebrity golf tournament at Trump National Golf Club near Charlotte, NC, with 100% of proceeds going to the Ronald McDonald House of Charlotte. The tournament offers foursomes the opportunity to play a round of golf with a celebrity captain. The 2016 tournament raised an incredible $261,000.
At ACN, we have one goal: to provide outstanding service and support to our Independent Business Owners and their customers. We don't do it for the recognition; we do it because the more people we can help to change their lives, the better. But when you're the world's largest direct seller of telecommunications, energy and other essential services, it's hard not to get noticed. Below are a few of the awards ACN has received. But these aren't just our awards – these are for our IBOs, because being recognized for our efforts just means we are doing our job well.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Two business tycoons involved in an owners' feud over The Philadelphia Inquirer turned out Tuesday for the first court hearing in the case, while rival co-owner and powerful New Jersey Democrat George Norcross was a no-show.
The dispute nominally involves this month's ouster of Pulitzer Prize-winning editor Bill Marimow.
But the suit and countersuit reveal a deeper split between Norcross and co-owners H.F. "Gerry" Lenfest and Lewis Katz just 18 months into their joint venture. Katz, Lenfest and Marimow were in court Tuesday; Norcross sent his attorneys.
Norcross made his money in insurance and Lenfest in cable television, while Katz has a parking lot fortune and also owned the New Jersey Nets. The three are the most prominent local leaders among the six men who threw together about $55 million to buy the Inquirer and its sister paper, the tabloid Philadelphia Daily News, from hedge fund owners last year.
A Philadelphia judge set an Oct. 28 hearing on whether the case belongs in her courthouse, where Lenfest and Katz filed suit, or in Delaware, where Norcross countersued.
Lenfest and Katz want the judge to block Marimow's firing and show Publisher Robert Hall — who fired Marimow — the door. Without explanation, a gaggle of dark-suited lawyers met with Judge Patricia McInerney for about 30 minutes before closed doors, before she took the bench to announce the next court date.
"That's what happens in Philly. They come out and put it on the record and everybody goes home," Katz said to his son, Drew.
As the parties prepare for high-pitched litigation, newsroom employees work for their fifth owners in seven years, and endure unpaid furloughs, more staff cuts and endless uncertainty. Marimow's lawyer called the Inquirer his client's "life mission" and stressed its role as a government watchdog.
"It's very important to the citizens of Philadelphia that they have a paper that maintains and doesn't move away from that and toward the private and political and business interests of certain owners," lawyer Bill Chadwick said afterward.
Lawyers for the Katz and Norcross factions declined comment, as did Lenfest.
A few current or retired staffers attended the hearing, including Dan Biddle, a Pulitzer Prize winner who was among five veteran editors that Hall wanted fired, according to newsroom employees who asked not to be named because of a directive not to talk to outside press. Marimow refused to fire them.
Both Norcross and Katz have insiders in the newsroom, and appear to have competing visions for the enterprise. Each accuses the other in their lawsuits of interfering with the news product, despite pledges to the contrary.
Norcross' daughter, Lexie, came aboard last year at age 25 and led the company's move from its iconic headquarters to shared space in a former department store. She now runs the Philly.com website, a free portal that, to the chagrin of some reporters, competes with each newspaper's fee-based website and offers much of the same content.
Katz's longtime companion is Inquirer city editor Nancy Phillips, a veteran investigative reporter and Marimow ally who congratulated the newsroom in a recent tweet for compiling a hard-hitting Sunday edition despite "the stress of a challenging week" — a week capped by Norcross' countersuit.

Collier County Local Ordinances (Local Laws, Special Acts of Local Application: Collier County) - The Collier County Board of Commissioners recently requested that the FWC repeal two Special Acts of Local Application for Collier County. The first act prohibits the use of artificial light while spearing or gigging fish in salt waters of the county and the second act prohibits spearfishing in waters of the county. These two acts were originally implemented by the Legislature in 1951 and 1955, respectively, and were subsequently adopted into rule of the Marine Fisheries Commission in 1983 and then into FWC rule in 1999. The prohibition on spearfishing also appears in Florida Statutes (F.S.) which are referenced in the Commission's Spearing rules (68B-20, Florida Administrative Code). Staff would work with the Legislature to remove the prohibition from F.S. In the meantime, the reference to F.S. would be removed from the Commissioner's rule. The County states these rules are antiquated, and not in the public's best interest. The repeal would also facilitate the removal of lionfish from Collier County waters by the use of spears. With their repeal, spearing and the use of lights would fall under the same rules as currently apply statewide. The proposed draft rule amendments would include: Collier County Spearfishing Ban Repeal Presentation
NOTE: Staff is requesting Commission approval to notice this rule and file as soon as possible. If the item is approved for both advertisement and filing, Commission staff will file the rule for adoption as allowed by s. 120.54(3) Florida Statutes, without further public hearing.
Staff will report on SAFMC actions from the March 4-8, 2013, Council meeting in St. Simon's Island, GA. Topics include dolphin, wahoo, Warsaw grouper, speckled hind, yellowtail snapper, other snapper grouper species, deepwater shrimp, Coral Habitat Areas of Particular Concern, and data collection. South Atlantic Report Presentation
Notice: Staff will be requesting changes to the proposed rule, as published, which would provide a "no-cost" option for management plans to be developed, require deer population surveys only when harvest recommendations exceed 1 antlerless or 1 antlered deer per 150 acres. Also the required number of approved conservation/wildlife management practices conducted annually on the permitted property would be increased from 3 to 4.
The Next Regular Commission meeting is scheduled June 18-20, 2013 in Lakeland, commencing at 8:30 a.m. each day.

How to identify inappropriate feline elimination
The most common concern expressed by clients about their cats' behavior involves inappropriate elimination. In fact, it's the single biggest reason cats are relinquished or euthanized. But the cause of litter box problems can usually be identified, prevented and treated successfully.
Simple observation
At each veterinary visit, encourage clients to observe their cats' behaviors at home. Using a history checklist not only enables you to assess behavior in a consistent manner at each visit and note potentially worrisome changes, but it also teaches clients which behaviors to monitor. (Download a short questionnaire clients can complete when they arrive at the clinic at http://dvm360.com/behaviorquestionnaire.)
To help facilitate this client discussion, here are a few sample questions:
Feline welfare issues
The key to resolving elimination concerns is to identify a pattern in the choices the cat makes. Unfortunately, before relinquishing or euthanizing a cat with inappropriate elimination problems, few people ask if the cat's behavior is reasonable or if its elimination and litter-box-related behaviors are true behavior problems for this particular cat. Given the risk factors for not using the litter box and for marking, we should be prepared to discern the well-being of a cat as part of any assessment of elimination complaints.
Complaints about feline elimination patterns can involve those associated with litter boxes and with marking. Concerns about litter box use generally involve one or more of the following—specifically, the cat:

UPDATE: Kevin Kolb made an appearance on the Dan Patrick Show this morning and talked about the Cardinals.
EARLIER: Around the time of the draft, an interesting rumor circulated -- that the Eagles had reached agreement with the Arizona Cardinals on a trade for quarterback Kevin Kolb, a deal that would net the Eagles starting corner Dominque Rodgers-Cromartie. Of course, teams weren't allowed to make trades then, even in the brief period when an injunction lifted the NFL lockout. The Eagles denied having any sort of deal in place.
Of course, teams also deny having deals in place with free agents before the free agent signing period starts every year, and yet, uncannily, complex, big-bucks contracts get signed in the opening minutes. Soooo...
The Rodgers-Cromartie rumor, which originally didn't find much traction out in Arizona, is all the rage in the desert right now. An Arizona reporter contacted me about it Monday, noting that he couldn't get anybody from the Cardinals to outright deny it. Then another Arizona reporter -- Mike Jurecki, who also is a XTRA910 radio talk show host - stated flatly on the air: "Kevin Kolb is the guy. Cardinals are prepared to offer DRC straight up...according to source."
Obviously, the Eagles still aren't going to say anything about this. And I'm not sure why the Cards would, but I do know the lockout is close to ending. And the Eagles are going to trade Kolb. And Arizona is the most likely destination. And a starting-quality corner who has been chosen for the Pro Bowl (year before last) is something the Eagles could use.
Rodgers-Cromartie, drafted 16th overall in 2008, is 6-2, 185. He and Asante Samuel would form a shutdown corner tandem. The absolutely ideal fit opposite Samuel would be a strong tackler, which Rodgers-Cromartie really isn't, but hey, you can't have everything. His numbers were down last season, the Cards drafted Patrick Peterson. Rodgers-Cromartie is light years ahead of what the Eagles put out there opposite Samuel last year, and probably better than anything available in free agency, other than Nnamdi Asomugha.
And of course, the Cards wouldn't be getting a slam-dunk sure thing either. I think Kolb can be a solid NFL quarterback. If he were going to be a superstar, the team would be crazy to deal him.
Is this really the Kolb deal? Interesting that the rumor won't die. It sure makes sense to me.

Gas explosion levels building, injures 8 in Springfield, Mass.(Reuters)
November 23. 2012 9:25PM
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. - An explosion triggered by a gas leak destroyed a building in downtown Springfield Friday, injuring at least eight people although none seriously, police said.
Springfield Police Captain William Collins said the building, a gentleman's club, exploded about 5:25 p.m. as the gas company was looking for a leak under the road.
"The whole building is completely gone," Collins told Reuters by telephone. "The building was leveled ... there was extensive damage to a building across the street."
Eight people injured in the explosion were taken to Baystate Medical Center in Springfield, but none was in critical condition, said hospital spokesman Jane Albert.
The medical center did not expect to receive any more people injured in the explosion, Albert said.
Images on a local CBS affiliate showed buildings with shattered windows, debris scattered in the street, and emergency services entering the area.
A representative of the Columbia Gas company told television station 22News that two employees had been injured in the explosion, but were both expected to survive. Columbia Gas could not be reached for comment.
Witnesses described to local media a massive explosion that shook the ground and sent up a huge cloud of smoke.

There are a couple of things in the story about the life of Caius Marius that are causing me grief:
Ibi cum in locis solitariis sederet, venit ad eum lictor Sextili praetoris, qui tum Africam obtinebat. Ab hoc, quem numquam laesisset, Marius humanitatis tamen aliquod officium expectabat;...
There, while he was encamped in a remote spot, the Lictor of the governor Sextilius, who at that time ruled Africa, came to him. From him, whom he didn't think he'd ever offended*, Marius still expected some sense of duty. But what is humanitatis doing there? Is it some sense of duty of humanity? Doesn't make sense to me.
*informal indirect discourse!
Then, later, Marius goes troppo and sacks Rome:
Cum enim Marius occisorum domos multitudini diripiendas obiecisset, inveriri potuit nemo qui civili luctu praedam peteret; quae quidem tam misericors continentia plebis tacita quaedam crudelium victorum vituperatio fuit.
Even though Marius had even laid open the houses of the people he'd killed for the multitude to ransack, no-one was able to be found who would seek booty in such a time of civil mourning; which (quae is a relative pronoun, referring to what? the booty is the only fem. sing. or neut. pl. I can see) indeed such merciful self control of the mob (tacita quaedam a certain unspoken thing?) the blame was of the cruel victors.
As you can see, it all turns to custard at the end there. If someone can give me a pointer as to where I'm going wrong I'd be grateful. I'm not really looking for a translation, just hints to help me work it out, if you know what I mean.
Cheers, Phil.

A message from Toshio Iwai
Tenori-On - A Musical Instrument For A New Age
I want to handle both light and sound simultaneously and pleasantly, as we play music or draw pictures.
This is the theme I have been working on for a long time. Pursuing this idea further i have with Yamaha, been developing Tenori-On with particular attention being given to, the beauty of the light and sounds, the ease of performance, and as a musical instrument for the future, the design and the quality of the product as a whole.
In days gone by, a musical instrument had to have a beauty , of shape as well as of sound, and had to fit the player almost organically. All of these elements were once considered indispensable. Modern electronic instruments don't have this inevitable relationship between the shape, the sound, and the player.
What I have done is to try to bring these, once indispensable, elements and build them into a true musical instrument for the digital age. Tenori-On

OSLO, Norway, July 11 (UPI) -- Oil production from Norwegian territory for the month of June was less than expected by the government, the petroleum directorate said.
The Norwegian Petroleum Directorate said production of oil, natural gas liquids and condensate for June was 11 percent less than the previous month.
NPD said daily liquid production for June was 1.3 million barrels of oil, 297,000 barrels of natural gas liquids and 69,000 barrels of condensate. The agency said oil production for the year was 2 percent less than expected.
The NPD in June said eight discoveries were made so far this year on the Norwegian Continental Shelf.
Last week, the agency said it had seen a surge in interest from energy companies examining prospects in its offshore energy sector. It said seven oil companies have submitted requests for information about the prospects in the Barents Sea and for the waters surrounding the arctic volcanic island Jan Mayen.
NPD offered no reason Wednesday for the lower-than-expected production figures for June. It said last month, however, the rate of new discoveries was below average.

The 1965 Elementary and Secondary Education Act sparked a huge increase in federal education spending and regulations. The legislation's Title I was supposed to provide aid to K–12 schools in high-poverty areas, but by the end of the 1960s it was providing aid to 60 percent of the nation's school districts. Today, Title I is the largest federal subsidy program for K–12 education.

One subtle effect of PHP's assign-by-reference is that operators which might be expected to work with args that are references usually don't. For example:
$a = ($b ? &$c : &$d);
fails (parser error) but the logically identical
if ($b)
$a =& $c;
$a =& $cd;
works. It's not always obvious why seemingly identical code throws an error in the first case. This is discussed on a PHP bug report ( https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=54740 ). TL;DR version, it acts more like an assignment term ($var1) "=&" ($var2) than a function/operator ($var1) "=" (&$var2).

Keeping America safe from diabetes sufferers
Steve Watson
Aug 5, 2011
The TSA is at it again. Putting in danger and infringing on the rights of every day Americans attempting to go about their daily business is now par for the course in the nation's airports.
This time the agency faces a formal complaint over an incident Yesterday at Denver International Airport where a TSO screener confiscated a pregnant woman's insulin and ice packs, claiming they were "at risk for explosives."
The woman, who asked to remain unidentified for fear that TSA agents would retaliate against her in future, described the incident to local ABC affiliate 7 News:
"He's like, 'Well, you're a risk.' I'm like, 'Excuse me?' And he's like, 'This is a risk … I can't tell you why again. But this is at risk for explosives,'"
"I got a bottle of nail polish. I got hair spray bottles. I got needles that are syringes. But yet I can't take through my actual insulin?" she retorted.
The woman says she ensured that the the insulin was clearly labeled and even produced a doctor's note, yet still the TSO was adamant that the medicine constituted a security threat.
The TSA's own website clearly states that insulin and all standard supplies associated with diabetes are permitted through the checkpoint once they have been screened.
In addition, TSA procedure does not allow for confiscation of any legal items. Agents may only take something from a passenger via "voluntary surrender". In this instance the confiscation therefore constitutes theft.
The fact that the confiscated item in question was a diabetes sufferer's insulin, coupled with the fact that the woman is with child makes the incident even more despicable.
Worse still, the woman claims that the agent never even confirmed the fact that the insulin had been removed from her baggage.
Picture: The TSA's own websites clearly indicates that insulin and all diabetes related medicines and equipment are permitted through security checkpoints.
The icing on the cake here comes with the fact that while quite prepared to violate the law and the agency's own procedures, the TSA agent was too incompetent to conduct a thorough search, as the woman says she managed to smuggle through half a vial of insulin.
"It was at the bottom of my lunch box because they didn't search it all the way through. They just took out every thing on top," she said.
When asked for an explanation, the TSA refused to discuss the case, providing the following generic pre-prepared statement:
TSA's mission is to safely, efficiently and respectfully screen nearly 2 million passengers each day at airports nationwide.
We are sensitive to the concerns of passengers who were not satisfied with their screening experience and we invite those individuals to provide feedback to TSA through a variety of channels. We work to balance those concerns with the very real threat that our adversaries will attempt to use explosives to carry out attacks on planes.
It is the traveler's responsibility to have proper government issued identification and a boarding pass; to cooperate with applicable screening procedures and instructions and to communicate their disability or health related needs.
Liquid medications should be labeled, and those in quantities larger than 3.4 ounces (100ml) each need to be separated from other carry-on items and declared to the security officer as medically necessary. A declaration can be made verbally, in writing, or by a person's companion, caregiver, interpreter, or family member. Liquids in excess of 3.4 ounces will require additional screening.
This woman is lucky she wasn't locked in a glass box by agents and forced to prove she was diabetic by injecting herself with insulin, such is the mind set of the tyrannical TSA stationed throughout the country's airports.

Shreffler:JAX Basophil Activation
From OpenWetWare
Basophil activation in unfractionated samples such as PBMC (note basophils are less dense than Ficoll) or whole blood can be measured by changes in the expression of cell surface markers or even intracellular events (e.g. phosphorylation, oxidative burst, calcium flux) by flow cytometry. Separate markers (e.g. as CD123+ HLA-DR-) are used to specifically identify basophils in addition to those used for assessment of activation.
This protocol is specifically for the JAX study.
- RPMI medium (cellgro, 10-040-CV; store at 4°C in dark)
- IL-3 (R&D) 2 μg/μL
- 1 X FACS lysing solution (made from 10X stock with dH2O; store at 4°C; expires in 1 week)
- PBS + 20 mM EDTA (sterile filter, store at 4°C; expires in 1 week)
- Staining Buffer (PBS + 2 mM EDTA + 0.5% BSA) (sterile filter, store at 4°C; aliquot in hood; expires in 2 months)
- monoclonal antibodies (e.g. CD63-FITC, CD203c-PE, CD123 PE-Cy5, CD69-APC-Cy7, HLA DR-PE-Cy7, CD3-APC, CD41a-APC)
- stimulant aliquots (pre-made, 30 μL aliquots, distributed by Shreffler Lab; stored at -20°C)
- 5 mL round bottom polypropylene tubes (Falcon)
- 1.5 mL eppendorf tubes
- 15 and 50 mL conical tubes
- vacuum filter flasks (Corning #430186)
- parafilm
- foil
- pipettes and tips
- serological pipettes (5, 10, 25)
- Obtain whole blood specimens collected in sodium heparin tube (green top).
- Remove pre-made stimulants (fMLP, Mouse allergen, CaI, PMA, Anti-IgE) from freezer. Label each stimulant and put aside to thaw.
- Record the total volume of blood on the data form.
- Aliquot 5 mL of RPMI into 15 mL conical tube and place it in a 37°C water bath to keep warm (for the dilution of stimulants and for the Unstained Control).
- Label eppendorf tubes for stimulants and 5 mL PP tubes for conditions (A-K).
- Prepare Basophil medium as follows:
- Add 3 μL of IL-3 into 1.5 mL of warm RPMI (use 5 mL PP tube). Vortex
- Aliquot 30 μL of RPMI + IL-3 into 5 (1.5 mL) eppendorf tubes labeled as Basophil medium 1 – Basophil medium 5.
- Add 270 μL of warm RPMI into each tube.
- Add 270 μL of warm RPMI to the following stimulants: anti-IgE, Mouse allergen, and fMLP stimulants. Pipette up and down to mix in cluster tube.
- Transfer 250 μL from each cluster tube to the corresponding eppendorf tube (labeled above).
- Add 135 μL of warm RPMI to each of the Calcium Ionophore and PMA tubes. Transfer both diluted stimulants into a single 1.5 mL eppendorf tube labeled CaI/PMA. Vortex
- Prepare 10-fold serial dilutions of the Mouse 1 stimulant as follows:
- Transfer 270 μL of the Basophil medium prepared above to each of the Mouse 2-5 tubes.
- Transfer 30 μL from Mouse 1 stimulant into Mouse 2 tube, vortex. Repeat this from Mouse 2 tube into Mouse 3 tube and continue making 10-fold dilutions in the same manner until all four Mouse dilutions have been prepared (Mouse 2 –Mouse 5). Vortex after each dilution.
- Note: if processing more than one sample, take care to track participant ID.
- Transfer 250 μL of warm RPMI into tubes A and B.
- Add 250 μL of each stimulant to the appropriate polypropylene tube (C-K) according to the table above.
- IN THE HOOD, add 250 μL of patient blood to all eleven tubes.
- Incubate tubes for 20 minutes in 37°C incubator (5% CO2). Do not shake tubes!
- While incubating, prepare the antibody cocktail and store in 4°C refrigerator until you are ready to use it:
- To 1.2 mL staining buffer, add 90 μL each of the CD63, CD203c, CD123, CD3 and CD41a and 45 μL each of the HLA-DR and CD69 mAbs.
- After 20 minutes of incubation, remove the samples and add 50 μL cold PBS w/ 20mM EDTA.
- Add 110 μL of antibody cocktail to tubes B -> K (DO NOT ADD TO A!).
- Incubate for 30 min at 4°C. Protect from light.
- Add 4 mL of 1x FACS lysing solution. Cover with parafilm and invert repeatedly until pellet is fully resuspended.
- Place tubes in the dark for 15 minutes or overnight in the refrigerator.
- Centrifuge for 5 minutes at 800 x g. Decant supernatant and resuspend pellet in 100 μL staining buffer.
- Transfer to 1.5 mL eppendorf tube and seal with parafilm for shipping.
- Ship to Shreffler Lab at room temperature.

Suicides Soar in Past Decade
Annual Total Surpasses Car-Crash Deaths; Rate Among Middle-Aged Is Cited
The number of deaths caused by suicide has risen precipitously in the last decade, surpassing those caused by car crashes and even some of the most fatal diseases, according to a government report released Thursday.
The number of suicides in a year rose 31% to 38,364 in 2010 from 29,181 in 1999, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. For adults aged 35 to 64, the group most responsible for the increase, suicide is now the fourth most common cause of death behind cancer, heart disease and unintentional...

From the University of Missouri
Mizzou Head Basketball Coach Frank Haith announced the hiring of former Drake University Head Coach Mark Phelps as an assistant coach on Tuesday. Phelps enjoyed more wins (77) than any Drake head coach in his first five seasons with the program and led the Bulldogs to a pair of postseason berths, including the team's first postseason win since 1975.
A veteran presence on the bench and on the recruiting trail, Phelps has 17 seasons of experience as both a head coach and assistant coach at the NCAA Division I level and three of his final four recruiting classes at Drake ranked either No. 1 or No. 2 in the Missouri Valley Conference by various national recruiting services.
Phelps, 47, began coaching at the Division I level in 1996 at N.C. State and has been a part of 12 postseason tournament appearances in his career, including five consecutive NCAA Tournament selections with the Wolfpack before becoming the Associate Head Coach under Sendek at Arizona State in 2006.
"We are all so excited to welcome Mark into our basketball family," Head Coach Frank Haith said. "I've known Mark for a number of years and have always admired his approach to the game of basketball. He is tireless with his preparation and gets the most out of his players because he is there putting in the work with them. When we had this opening become available Mark was my first call and it speaks well of Mizzou that we were able to recruit him away from some other great programs."
As mentioned, Phelps won more games in his first five seasons than any coach in Drake history. Owning just one NCAA Tournament appearance since 1971 and two postseason bids of any kind since 1981, Phelps helped the Bulldogs advance to the CollegeInsider.com (CIT) twice in his five years (2009 and 2012), including a win over North Dakota in the opening round in 2012. Drake (18-16 overall, 9-9 MVC in 2012) finished third in the final Missouri Valley Conference standings that season and two of his players, Rayvonte Rice and Ben Simons, earned Second Team All-Missouri Valley Conference honors.
"I'm extremely honored to have the opportunity to join Coach Haith's staff here at Missouri and I want to thank Coach Haith, Mike Alden and the administration for giving me this opportunity to continue my coaching career as a Tiger," Phelps said. "It goes without saying, but I have a great deal of respect for Coach Haith and how he runs his program. He has distinguished himself as one of the elite coaches throughout his climb in our profession. We saw the fantastic job he did at Miami when we were at N.C. State and he has brought that same winning pedigree here to Mizzou."
Phelps spent two years as the Associate Head Coach at Arizona State following his 10 seasons at N.C. State, and the Sun Devils saw remarkable improvement going from 8-22 his first season to 21-13 and a postseason appearance in year two.
"Mark's experience on the bench and recruiting ties across the country makes this a great hire for us," Haith said. "He was a highly respected high school coach in Virginia and he has ties throughout basketball from his time in the ACC, Pac-12 and Missouri Valley, three tremendous basketball leagues, so we are excited to get him on campus, get him acclimated to Mizzou and out on the road next month."
Prior to joining Sendek's staff in Raleigh, N.C., Phelps was a highly successful high school coach in Virginia. He led Rock Church Academy (1990-94) in his hometown of Virginia Beach, Va., to a 104-41 record and then moved to Atlantic Shores Christian School (1994-96), leading the team to a 44-12 mark.
Phelps and his wife Alissa have two children, a son Owen and a daughter Laney.

at New York's three premier airports

February 3, 2012
Paul E. Sax, M.D., is director of the HIV Program and Division of Infectious Diseases at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston.
I have a very smart, very experienced colleague -- clue, his initials are CC, and he doesn't pitch for the Yankees -- who continues to use bDNA testing for HIV viral load monitoring. You know, the assay with a lower limit of detection of 75 copies.
He knows that bDNA is less sensitive than PCR.
He knows that it's more expensive than PCR.
He even knows (I think) that it's less accurate than PCR.
So why does he use it? Because he detests the added anxiety and aggravation that these periodic low-level results -- usually 20-200 copies, or "<20 but target detected" -- give his patients. More importantly, he's not convinced it provides him with any useful information.
I certainly get that. And suspect he's not alone in using this (ancient) test, which is probably best known for a study that put viral load testing on the map way back when.
But I can't bring myself to use an inferior and more expensive test, so I've switched whole-hog to PCR. As a result, I've been forced to learn a whole new speech to give to patients when these results come back. It usually goes something like this:
Gerald [not his real name], the result came back at 43 ... Yes, this is detectable, but remember our old test only went down to 50, so in fact this is a great result -- keep up the good work ... No, I'm not worried ... If you're worried we can repeat it, but I can assure you I won't recommend changing meds even if it comes back the same ... Yes I'm sure ... You're welcome.
Now it's been a few years since we've had these tests, and several studies (like this one) thus far didn't even suggest any significance to these low-level detectable results.
Until now.
Over in Journal Watch AIDS Clinical Care, Helmut Albrecht summarizes a recent study that compares the likelihood of virologic rebound in 1247 patients who had viral loads measured by the RealTime PCR assay. Three groups were defined: those with results between 40-49 (Group A), < 40 but detectable (Group B), and truly undetectable (Group C):
The proportion of patients who experienced viral rebound to >50 copies/mL was 34.2% for group A, 11.3% for group B, and 4.0% for group C. The proportion with rebound to >400 copies/mL was 13.0%, 3.8%, and 1.2%, respectively. These associations were independent of adherence levels.
Based on these data, it does seem that the lower the viral load, the better -- but wait!
Is there more resistance among those who rebounded? No.
Could this just be a proxy for duration of virologic suppression? Highly likely.
