Patterns of RNA expression, viral load, and other biomarkers may help clinicians distinguish between oropharyngeal cancer caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) and other forms of the disease, researchers reported.
They also suggested that immunostaining tumor samples for the HPV-targeted tumor suppressor protein p16INK4a might not be an accurate way of identifying HPV-driven tumors.
HPV-driven oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma has a better prognosis than other forms of the disease, but pinning down which is which remains difficult, investigators noted in two studies online in Cancer Research.
In the first, Dana Holzinger, PhD, of the German Cancer Research Center in Heidelberg, and colleagues reported that HPV RNA expression patterns and HPV viral load were associated with the lowest risk for death from oropharyngeal cancer.
In the second, Karl Kelsey, MD, of Brown University in Providence, R.I., and colleagues reported that expression of two HPV proteins was associated with improved survival, as were combinations of other markers.
If the difficulties can be resolved, there is "a window to consider treatment de-intensification," said Eduardo Méndez, MD, of the University of Washington in Seattle, in an accompanying commentary.
Méndez said the two studies offer further insight as to how clinicians might distinguish the two types of cancer and potentially improve treatment.
Holzinger and colleagues analyzed 199 fresh-frozen oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma specimens for HPV DNA, viral load, the RNA expression patterns seen in cervical carcinomas, and p16INK4a.
They found that 49% of the specimens had DNA from the cancer-associated HPV type 16. But only 16% of the specimens had a high viral load and just 20% had CxCaRNA+, a marker of HPV16 carcinogenic activity in cervical cancer.
In a multivariate analysis, in which HPV-negative tumors were the reference group, CxCaRNA+ alone was associated with the lowest risk of death (hazard ratio 0.28, 95% CI 0.13 to 0.61).
A high viral load conferred a similar low risk (HR 0.32, 95% CI 0.14 to 0.73).
On the other hand, tumors that showed evidence of HPV and high expression of the p16INK4aprotein did not significantly predict death (HR 0.55, 95% CI 0.29 to 1.08).
Holzinger and colleagues argued that clinicians might do better to use viral load or RNA pattern analysis, rather than p16INK4a expression, to identify HPV16-driven tumors.
"We showed that high viral load and a cancer-specific pattern of viral gene expression are most suited to identify patients with HPV-driven tumors among patients with oropharyngeal cancer," Holzinger said in a statement.
"Viral expression pattern is a completely new marker in this field and viral load has hardly been analyzed before," she added.
Kelsey and colleagues looked for HPV16 serology in samples from 488 patients, studied p16INK4a expression in a subset of 233 cases, and used polymerase chain reaction methods to assess the presence of HPV16 DNA in a subset of 179 cases.
In the serology assays, they found that the presence of positive immunostaining for the HPV E6 and E7 proteins was significantly associated with enhanced all-cause survival (HR 0.10, 95% CI 0.020 to 0.30).
On the other hand, neither the presence of HPV16 DNA nor p16INK4a expression was associated with significantly enhanced survival (HRs 0.9 and 0.3, respectively). But in both cases, the confidence interval crossed unity.
Also, the combination of HPV-positive DNA and E6 or E7 serology was associated with enhanced overall survival (HR 0.1, 95% CI 0.02 to 1.0).
In patients with evidence of HPV in tumor DNA but seronegative for the E6 and E7 proteins, there was no evidence of favorable survival, Kelsey and colleagues found.
Also, patients with p16INK4a expression and E6 or E7 seropositivity had favorable survival (HR 0.1, 95% CI from 0.02 to 0.4) but those who were p16INK4a-positive but did not have the E6 and E7 proteins had significantly increased risk of death (HR 3.1, 95% CI from 1.2 to 7.7).
The bottom line is that "assessment of HPV DNA using polymerase chain reaction methods ... is a poor predictor of outcome," Kelsey said in a statement.
"We may not be diagnosing these tumors as accurately and precisely as we need to for adjusting treatments," Kelsey added.
Both studies need further validation, Méndez argued, noting that one take-home message is that a yes-no decision based on p16INK4a expression should be viewed with caution.
The study by Holzinger's group had support from the European Commission, BMBG/HGF-Canceropôle Grand-Est, and the German Research Foundation. The journal said Holzinger reported no conflicts of interest.
The study by Kelsey's group had support from the NIH and the Flight Attendants Medical Research Institute. The journal said Kelsey reported no conflicts of interest.
Mendez reported financial links with Intuitive Surgical.

This is the Billet Internal Adapter for the Arrow, Hindsight, Hindsight LS and Blindsight Billet Bar End Mirrors. CRG makes this assembly to offer an alternative to the basic Bar End Mirror mount.
Whenever possible, CRG recommends mounting the Hindsight Billet Bar End Mirror with the basic mount which clamps to the outer diameter of a 7/8" handlebar/clip-on. Using the basic mount is the bar end mirror solution using the fewest parts, facilitates the easiest installation and removal, is the lightest weight, and provides for the most secure bar end mirror mounting. Use of the basic mount requires having 10mm (3/8") of bare bar outboard of the grip/throttle assembly. Before purchasing the mirror adapter, try moving your grips and controls inboard (away from the end of the bar). In many applications, the mirror can be mounted with the basic mount.

1984 Chevrolet S-10Review
Reliable, Easy To Work On, Cheap Replacement Parts. No Frills = Low Cost. — Simple to start, easy on the wallet for insurance and gas. Nice to look at, really look forward to keeping this one for a long time running. Wife wont be seen in it...yet, but once it has the exhaust pipes and muffler installed, shouldn't have any problems having a coversation while driving around town.
Primary Use: Commuting to work
Pros: Little Truck with plenty of bed room for small items for hauling. Don't tow the family boat, and you are fine. Shifts beautifully, 4-speed manual is much easier to handle than I remember learning 16 years ago.
Cons: Its and old, small engine, so it lacks a little on power.

It's Easier To Get In Tune With A Truck That Has A Carburetor. — I got up to 26.75 mpg by doing simple carburetor mods and maybe getting a boost from magnetic fuel treatment and a Jenny Cell aetheric energy generator and also a quantum coherence device and a Sophie Cell. Also messed with hydrogen cells with this vehicle, and I tried running it with crazy timing like they supposedly do with Joe Cells, of course with no luck. Also, treated this truck with Cerma ceramic metal treatment.
Pros: What a great classic 1980s bare bones carbureted small pickup. It's so easy to work on any part of it and the parts are very cheap. It seems pretty tough, and at least there are no electronic stuffs to break.
Cons: There's a good bit of road noise and transmission noise in the cabin.

My Amazing 1984 Chevy S-10 — I don't like that my truck doesn't have air conditionin, but for overall performance, my truck is amazing. It is a great truck to drive. It is a standard, which I am not too fond of, but the gas mileage is great, I think that it gets like 20-23 miles per gallon, so yeah, it is good. The paint is primer, so it is ready to be painted when I get the money. The interior is poor, but I spruced it up by adding seat covers, stick cover, steering wheel cover, and much more.
Pros: Awesome gas mileage
Cons: Poor interior

Best Truck We've Ever Owned! — We bought this new in 1984 and used it for nearly 20 years. It was a 4 speed and a work-horse. I don't know how many things we hauled it in over the years.
Pros: Long beds rock! I think it was a 7 & 1/2 foot bed and the room was great!
Cons: It was old, so we sold it and got the Impala.

Christian O'Connell's XFM breakfast show has seen off the competition at Virgin Radio. At this stage, we'd normally insult Pete & Geoff, Virgin's current breakfast DJs, but we never listen to them so they might be geniuses for all we know (but we doubt it).
O'Connell isn't content with trouncing the Virgin DJs for entertainment value and causing their 'reshuffle' though. No, according to the BBC, he's decided he's going to occupy their territory by moving to Virgin to take over their Breakfast Show. He'll go there in early 2006, which should give XFM listeners a little time to get used to the idea, then forget he's moving at all, then get a shock when they tune in next year.
Whilst the XFM Breakfast Show is notable for its banter rather than its music, as we opined in our post celebrating O'Connell's Sony Awards, wild monkeys will be required to make us retune our radios to Virgin, O'C or no O'C.
Of course there is a ready-made replacement for O'Connell in the form of Shaun Keaveney, who's done an excellent job filling in for O'Connell when required. We can't think of anyone else on the XFM roster who could do a better job than Keaveney, but O'Connell will be a hard act to follow. The Breakfast Show blog has already had some comments about the news, none of which were positive at the time of writing this post. A commenter called 'Rob', who may or may not be one of the whip-cracking Londonist editors said:
I don't think that I could endure Virgin even if Chris joined Christian. But I might be forced to if that talentless git JLC takes over at breakfast
Just so long as Ian Camfield doesn't return to the Breakfast Show, we'll be prepared to give the new presenter a decent chance.

Have you ever dreaded doing what used to bring excitement and hope into your life? You're not alone.
I remember waking up one day and wishing I could just go back to sleep, where I wouldn't have to deal with my humongous to-do list. I felt guilty about my apparent laziness. Don't I love what I do for a living? I asked myself. Is it time to change careers—again?
Instead of heading to my computer, I went for a long walk in the woods to mull over my feelings. The fresh air helped me clear my mind enough to realize the roadblocks that were killing my motivation.
Here are 7 motivation killers and how you can get rid of them so that you can regain the passion you thought was lost forever:
1. Being in a rut
If you can accurately predict what you'll be doing every hour of every day, you've fallen into a rut. As master motivator Tony Robbins says, "one of the 6 basic human needs that make us tick is uncertainty/variety." To bring variety into your life, you can brainstorm new projects or try different activities where you'll meet new people.
In my case, I joined a couple of networking groups. As an entrepreneur who works in isolation, it was refreshing to interact with new business contacts who had a different take on what I could do to grow my business.
2. Seeing no results
Discouragement is a sure motivation killer. What to do? Instead of focusing on what is not working, focus on a solution to make things work.
To change my perspective, I remembered Einsteins famous quote: "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." So, instead of continuing to complain about my failing advertising campaigns, I focused on the changes I needed to make to create successful ads.
Finding possible solutions to your problems will energize you and motivate you to keep going. Also, switching to solution-oriented mode will instantly bring variety to your days, which will further boost your motivation.
3. Comparing yourself to others
People tend to brag on Facebook. And while it's nice to see your friends display their wins, it isn't nice to feel that everyone you know seems to be doing better than you. Facebook envy is real, and it makes you feel that there must be something wrong with you.
But this isn't a phenomenon exclusively related to social media. Negative emotions will arise every time we insist in comparing ourselves to others.
What did I do? I decided to compare my present achievements to what I had accomplished in the past. That's when I realized I had made such amazing progress! Take an inventory of how much you've grown and learned throughout the years. This exercise will reignite your motivation!
4. Feeling overwhelmed
What do you do when you feel you have so much to do that you don't even know where to start? You lose the desire to start in the first place. If you're working on a large project or managing several responsibilities simultaneously, you'll be susceptible to losing your motivation. In my case, my gigantic and never-ending to-do list was the culprit.
What to do? Break large projects into small chunks, and only focus on one task at a time. Lao-Tzu's famous quote "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a simple step" has become common wisdom for a reason. If you feel as though your goal is manageable, your motivation will return.
"Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass. It's about learning how to dance in the rain." – Vivian Greene
5. Seeking constant approval
Doing something to meet someone else's expectation is another motivation killer. That's why most people who lose weight before a wedding, gain it right back. Also why you'll tend to hate a career you've chosen to please your family or impress your friends.
I proclaimed my independence from the good opinion of other people and decided to just be myself. I felt free and much more motivated. Will you proclaim your independence as well? Take a few moments to think about the reason you're doing what you're doing, and make sure the only person you aim to please is you.
6. Receiving negative criticism
Nothing worse than hearing your hard work isn't good enough. After posting what I thought was an epic blog article, I received social media comments that were less than nice. But instead of feeling demoralized, I told myself that I couldn't let someone's negative opinion stop me from pursuing my passion.
Move your attention away from the negative comments someone might have shared about you and your work. Instead, determine whether there is something you can learn from the negative feedback, and then choose to view negative criticism as proof that you had the courage to put yourself out there. You're a hero, and heroes quickly regain their motivation, regardless of what others think or do.
7. Fearing failure
Anticipating failure is the strongest motivation killer. Why start if we're going to fail anyway? Taking action feels like a waste of time. Besides switching your focus away from negative thinking, the best solution to overcome fear of failure is to achieve a small success. If you have tangible proof that you can be successful, your fear will slowly disappear.
For example, when I feel fearful thoughts creep in, I take quick action to do something that has a high probability of success within a short period of time. I'll design a new webpage, create a new image for social media, or write a new blog article.
When I see the product of my efforts, I feel reenergized. Decide to eliminate the fear of failure from your life, and think of something small you can achieve today.
"What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us." – Ralph Waldo Emerson
You will encounter roadblocks that threaten to kill your motivation, but if you remain vigilant and focused on your ultimate goal, you'll be able to overcome every challenge. Next time one of these roadblocks appears in your life, remember that in the end, your level of motivation depends on only one person; you.

Superfoods, what are they exactly? Well firstly, they don't fly faster than a speeding bullet or have a big S on them. Superfoods are foods with a high concentration of vitamins and minerals that are said to be good for us. Searching for information on superfoods in relation to psoriasis was quite difficult though, as most of the information I found was focused on other conditions.
However, when you read up about foods that promote healthy skin you find that many of these foods are also good for us in other ways. It seems that omega 3 and vitamins C, D, E and K which all promote healthy skin, have also been advocated as having a role in maintenance of a healthy blood pressure and heart. It makes sense to me that all this must be connected, keeping your body healthy must help all round and not just one organ specifically. As I have said many times before, if you stay healthy it is likely that your largest organ, your skin, will react accordingly. I don't know if it is true, it just makes sense to me.
Now back to the foods themselves. Well I could list everything out but we'd be here for a while, so I have concentrated on certain foods and will show you how to buy them and use them in different meals so you don't get bored of the same recipe. For a reliable source on superfoods, you can always refer to this NHS page.
The foods I have chosen to create recipes for are:
- Kale; High in vitamin K which is often used in many skin care treatments also.
- Broccoli; High in vitamin C & A and easy to include as part of a weekly Sunday roast.
- Beetroot; High in iron and folate with the added benefit of magnesium and other antioxidants.
- Carrots; Rich in vitamin A and antioxidants said to give your skin a healthy glow.
- Avocado; You see this in many skin care products although I found the evidence on how this could promote healthy skin scarce.
- Berries; Strawberries, Blueberries and Blackberries, all high in essential vitamins and blueberries are said to help your brain power. Whether that is true... I forget.
- Dark Chocolate; Yes you read it right. Dark chocolate is thought to reduce inflammation. A delicious treat and potentially good if you have psoriatic arthritis too.
Now, on to the good stuff – The Food. Throughout the following recipes you will find a huge variety of superfoods and other healthy additions, too many to list in this post, so if you want more ideas you can check out this list of 50 superfoods.
Let's start with breakfast
I did something similar for Christmas but I've made it a little healthier this time by leaving out the bacon. Avocado mash is made up of one avocado, chopped fresh tomatoes, chopped red chilli, chopped red onion, lemon juice, mint and coriander. You can make this to your taste; mash up the ingredients using as little or as much of what you like the most and serve on toast. It is a great fresh way to start the day. The addition of mint can help your metabolism whilst fresh coriander contains a number of antioxidants to help fight disease and said to help reduce bad cholesterol, so it's double whammy with the avocado. Coriander is also said to reduce blood sugar levels, reduce anxiety and improve sleep. So maybe this could even be a tea-time snack.
Sticking with the idea of something you can do your way; a super vegetable soup is just the ticket. My base soup was carrot, swede, potato and onion. All chopped roughly to make it rustic and no stock needed as I added dried oregano, parsley and coriander. I let this cook for a good couple of hours and it makes its own stock. Just cook off the onions and carrots for a few minutes to start and then add the rest of the veg and top up with water. The starch in the potatoes will thicken it up nicely. To make it a little 'cheffy' I chopped fresh coriander and spring onions and put these in the soup bowl before pouring on the steaming hot soup. Just don't forget your seasoning. I always say adding a little salt to fresh food is good, we do need salt in our diet. Also I found that black pepper is also a superfood that can improve digestion and stimulate fat cell breakdown.
The next day, I added sugar snap peas and beetroot to this, but the options are endless. You could spice it up by adding a super spice, turmeric. Just add the turmeric to a pan with a little water to cook it off and add your soup and heat through. Or to get some omega 3 in, just add some flaked salmon. If you like some low fat protein, small shreds of chicken or turkey will also go with this soup.
The one pot super roast (almost)
You can do this in one pan for one person; I made it for two though so it became a two pan roast you make on the hob. Start by halving some new potatoes and using a little rapeseed oil (or another healthy alternative) brown off the potatoes but try not to move them around too much so you get a nice colour, then flip them over when brown on one side. Add chopped onions and let these soften. I then added a gravy using low fat granules and layered purple sprouting broccoli on top. Turn the heat down and cover so the veg steams. Whilst this is on, take two pork loin steaks and brush with oil. Cook in a fairly high sided frying pan and season. Get a nice colour to them and remove from the heat to rest. Whilst the pork is resting add chopped kale to your veg pan. Again, do not stir this in, just lay it on top and let it steam. Give it about 3-5 minutes depending on how soft you want it and then serve everything up. From start to finish this takes about 30 minutes so it can even be a mid-week treat.
Super slaw
It has probably become clear in my posts that I love making my own coleslaw. It is easy, less fattening that most shop bought slaw and so much tastier. Again, it's something you can play with as you don't need to do the same thing twice. For my superfood slaw I used kale, red onion and red cabbage. Cabbage is in the same family as kale and offers many of the same benefits although not as concentrated. Slice the kale leaves and discard the stalks then finely slice. Finley slice the red onion and red cabbage and put everything in a bowl. For a dressing, this time I went for extra virgin olive oil, a dash of cider vinegar, a teaspoon of both Dijon and wholegrain mustard and a little honey. Whisk the dressing by hand to form an emulsion and then pour onto the slaw. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon over at the end for an added zing.
Now coleslaw on its own would be a bit boring so I sliced fresh chicken breast and pan fried it with chopped beetroot. The slaw will actually keep for a couple of days and amazingly the chicken and beetroot leftovers were lovely cold the next day too.
Now for the treat
I loved making this dessert, although when I first went shopping I had no idea what to make so I just wandered around and looked for inspiration. Strangely, this idea came from a Muller Corner and the fact that I spotted one of my favourite fruits, Sicilian blood oranges, on the shelf. So I ended up with a blood orange yoghurt with mixed berries and dark chocolate. It is so easy to make. Take a 500ml pot of fat free Greek style yoghurt and add the juice and grated zest of one blood orange and icing sugar to taste. Whisk it up and put in the fridge where it will thicken up a little.
In a bowl, add a mix of berries – any that you like will be fine. I hulled and quartered strawberries and added blueberries and blackcurrants. Then spoon over the yoghurt. It's good for a snack just as it is. If you want to dress it up a little you can add some pomegranate seeds and shaved dark chocolate on top. Who says healthy can't be a treat.
I hope this gives you inspiration to get out there and cook your own superfoods.

Stunner. Liberal Alaska Reporter Handcuffed & Detained For Harassing GOP Candidate & Assaulting Man at Town Hall
It's not just about reporting the news anymore…
Alaska Dispatch founder and editor Tony Hopfinger sits with his wrists in handcuffs after being arrested by Republican Senate candidate Joe Miller's private security detail Oct. 17, 2010. (ADM)
What a complete shock. A liberal reporter in Alaska was handcuffed and detained after he harassed Republican candidate Joe Miller after a town hall event. The reporter also assaulted a man.
The Anchorage Daily News reported:
The editor of the Alaska Dispatch website was arrested by U.S. Senate candidate Joe Miller's private security guards Sunday as the editor attempted to interview Miller at the end of a public event in an Anchorage school.
Tony Hopfinger was handcuffed by the guards and detained in a hallway at Central Middle School until Anchorage police came and told the guards to release Hopfinger.
Hopfinger has not been charged but the owner of the Drop Zone, the private security firm that's been providing Miller's security, accused Hopfinger of trespassing at the public event, a town hall sponsored by the Miller campaign. The owner, William Fulton, also said Hopfinger assaulted a man by shoving him.
Anchorage Police who responded to the call said they would leave it to the District Attorney's office to decide whether to prosecute. They spent more than an hour taking statements, then left.

Basic education committee welcomes declining trend in teenage pregnancies
Parliament's Portfolio Committee on Basic Education has welcomed the declining trend in teenage and learner pregnancies in South Africa.
Committee Chairperson Ms Nomalungelo Gina said: We are excited that the trends are going down, but even so, we are still worried. One teenage pregnancy is one school pregnancy too many.rdquo;
The Committee today received a briefing from the Department of Basic Education (DBE), the Department of Social Development and the Department of Health on prevention and management of learner pregnancy. The Committee heard that a study by the Human Sciences Research Council was release in 2012. This study pointed to a decline in teenage fertility rates over the past five decades. However, despite this decline, the study said unintended teenage pregnancies remain unacceptably high.
The Committee heard that 16% of women aged 15-19 in South Africa have begun childbearing, with the highest being in the Northern Cape and North West (20%) and the lowest in the Western Cape (8%), according to the South African Demographic and Health Survey of 2016. The DBE Annual School Survey data indicated that 15504 pregnant learners are in school.
This is a societal ill. We have heard about the key drivers of teenage pregnancy, which include gender-based violence, inter-generational and transactional relationships (the blesserrdquo; phenomenon), low use of contraceptives, poverty, orphanhood and risky sexual behaviour. The community needs to stand together to fight this ill. The welfare and future of our young is at stake and we cannot leave them to fall into the poverty trap, which at times comes with teenage pregnancy,rdquo; said Ms Gina.
Ms Gina pointed to the importance of greater collaboration: the working and planning together of all departments involved in this matter. We cannot work in silos. We need to work together to protect our youth.rdquo;
The Committee further welcomed the directive by the DBE that stringent vetting will occur for all people working with children. This is a start and a good measure to look after the safety of our children,rdquo; said Ms Gina.

I ran across this quote by Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia somewhere the other day and filed it away for use sometime.
"The press is never going to report judicial opinions accurately…. They're just going to report who is the plaintiff? Was that a nice little old lady? And who is the defendant? Was this, you know, some scuzzy guy? And who won? Was it the good guy that won or the bad guy? And that's all you're going to get in a press report, and you can't blame them, you can't blame them. Because nobody would read it if you went into the details of the law that the court has to resolve. So you can't judge your judges on the basis of what you read in the press."
Speaking in 2006, the conservative justice expressed concern about the courts as policy makers, particularly on social issues.
Now comes Newt Gingrich, who, according to Howard Kurtz in The Daily Beast, today took off after "elitist judges imposing secularism on the country."
Dismissing a question about whether his proposals amount to a power grab, Gingrich said the "nine appointed people" on the Supreme Court should not be "the ultimate dictators," and that the president and Congress should jointly be able to block decisions with which they disagree.
I'm no constitutional scholar, and I'm pretty sure the separation of powers takes care of that, but I'll let the lawyers decide that. But I do enjoy Gingrich taking Justice Scalia's position — or at least what I surmise is his position — and extending it all the way to the Supreme Court.
I suspect the two would agree on the press, but wonder what Justice Scalia thinks about Gingrich's opinion on the Supreme Court.

Giovanni Trapattoni, manager of Ireland's national soccer team, is gearing up to bring the team to the U.S. for two end-of-season friendly games.
Following the Euro 2012 qualifier against Macedonia, in Skopje, on June 4 it is believed the Irish team will travel to New Jersey.
No details have been confirmed however the Press Association have reported that Trapattoni's team are likely to face the Italian team at Meadowlands on June 11. This is a new venue built on the site of the former New York Giant's Stadium, the location where Ireland famously defeated the Italians in World Cup 1994.
During the same week in June the Irish team are also expected to play against another European or perhaps a South American team. Trapattoni is eager to spend this time working with the fringe players in the squad.
Ireland played the Italian team twice during the qualification campaign for the last World Cup. They drew 1-1 in Bari and 2-2 in Dublin as the Italians beats them to the top spot in Group 8.

Why LTH students succeed more easily in their studies
How does a student straight out of upper secondary school manage the difficult studies which await at a Faculty of Engineering? One of the answers to this question is spelt SI; it is an academic support programme which aims to counteract drop-out rates and help new university students to acquire a better study strategy. SI has been available at Lund's Faculty of Engineering since 1994 – with very good results.
SI stands for Supplemental Instruction and is based on collaborative learning in groups with the aim of bridging the differences in learning techniques between upper secondary school and higher education. In short, SI helps students to succeed on selected "difficult" introductory courses on the programme.
20 years ago, the completion rate for students was a crucial issue for many Swedish higher education institutions. There were courses in teaching and learning for lecturers but there was no equivalent training focused on the students' own learning processes.
"We observed that many students were alone in their studies and we wanted to see how we could get them to work together in a more structured way. We also saw that the students found it difficult to apply study techniques to what they had heard or read within their own subject", said Leif Bryngfors at LTH.
Together with Marita Bruzell Nilsson at MatNat, he applied for development funding to study possible ways of working with student learning in groups. Leif and Marita visited a number of universities in the US and found that SI was a model which could quite easily be adapted to Swedish conditions, as was subsequently done.
SI is a complement to the regular teaching on a course. The idea is that the learning of a subject is reinforced through the exchange of thoughts and ideas among students. SI takes place in meetings of around 5–15 students, with discussions led by a senior student. The older student is not to act as a teacher, but rather to help clarify difficult issues within the subject by asking questions, acting as a sounding board, initiating work in small groups and coordinating the presentation of conclusions.
This generates an atmosphere in the group with an emphasis on helping one another to achieve a deeper understanding of the issue. It establishes an approach to learning in which the students involved shift their attention from details to see the bigger picture.
"The students also learn to think strategically and methodically. Group members discuss and formulate both issues and arguments and test them against the views of others. The work is done in an engaging way and you feel a strong sense of cohesion in the group", said Leif Bryngfors.
Ever since 1994, the basic idea has held and is well-supported throughout the organisation. At LTH, the concept has been further developed, with specialised supervision of the SI leaders. LTH has also introduced several occasions for self-reflection among the SI leaders, who write a log book after each meeting to record what worked well and what could be improved.
"We have also developed and structured the evaluation work, resulting in a large number of published research articles. We have noticed a strong interest in introducing SI in schools", said Leif Bryngfors.
There are currently five centres for SI in the world, of which one is at LTH. All those using SI today at Swedish, Norwegian and Danish higher education institutions were trained at the centre in Lund.
SI can be used in all subjects and does not focus on a few students; it is open to all.
"At LTH we have chosen to focus SI on courses for our first-year students, to enable them to get going with their studies rapidly and see their fellow students as a resource. The courses new students find difficult and to which SI is linked are mainly courses in mathematics, chemistry and mechanics".
There is an advanced selection process to become an SI leader, focusing on study results along with communication skills and personal ability. Everyone undergoes a two-day SI leadership training course and is then supervised, observed and coached continuously as long as they are SI leaders.
Why would a student use SI?
"The most prominent reason for taking part in SI meetings is that they contribute to a better understanding of the subject. The participants improve their results, increase their motivation and develop general skills such as teamwork, communication and critical thinking. The students formulate the issues themselves and then process them together with others in a group. It happens in a non-judgemental environment which allows students not only to admit that they don't understand but to ask for help from the group. The experience of being able to contribute to understand or solve parts of a problem or the whole of it causes self-confidence to grow and you dare to tackle even things you would not normally think you could manage", said Leif Bryngfors.
He adds that the students who appear to benefit most from the SI activities are the SI leaders, who develop within everything from leadership and management of groups to taking on responsibility, as well as often acquiring a much deeper understanding of their SI subject.
There are plans to extend SI to other subjects in the future, at all the faculties. The establishment of a regional SI platform in cooperation with Kompetenssamverkan Skåne (Competence Collaboration Skåne) is also on the cards. The aim is to reach out with SI to schools in the whole region.
SI in figures:
- A student with high SI attendance produces approximately 12 additional credits during the first academic year, compared to students who have not taken part in SI.
- After five years of study, the proportion of students who have obtained a degree is more than twice as high among those with high SI attendance, compared to those who did not take part in SI.
- Almost 6 times fewer students drop out among those with high SI attendance, compared to those who did not take part in SI.
- Among the students who have neither dropped out nor obtained their degree after 5 years, the production of credits is almost 30 credits higher for those with high SI attendance compared to those who did not take part in SI.
- SI was developed in 1973 at the University of Missouri in Kansas City to increase the completion rate among students on difficult courses. SI as a concept has since had a great impact and become established at more than 1500 higher education institutions in around thirty countries.
The people behind SI:
The steering group for the National Centre for Supplemental Instruction at LTH consists of the following people: Leif Bryngfors, Arthur Holmer, Pavla Kruzela, Joakim Malm, Lise-Lotte Mörner, Ingrid Svensson.

It looks like a lot more people are going to be getting a lot more out of their consumer electronics. The number of web-enabled CE devices is continuing to grow. Those TVs, Blu-ray players and other electronics allow TV owners to tap into content outside of what's available on the typical cable or satellite set-top box. Some of the most well known "apps" include Netflix, Amazon Video on Demand, Pandora and even YouTube.
According to a new report, consumers will continue to seek out that added content in droves. In-Stat says that we should expect 230 million web-enabled CE devices to ship by 2014. The study says that most of those devices will be bought in North America and Europe.
"Consumer adoption of online applications, using web-enabled CE devices, will be regionalized, or in some cases, country-specific," says Keith Nissen, a principal analyst for In-Stat. "For example, in China, there is very little licensed video entertainment content available for delivery over the Internet. In contrast, the availability of online video entertainment in Europe and North America is expected to grow substantially over the next five years. The primary markets for web-enabled CE devices will correlate to where online video is also available."
The content available also depends on the manufacturer. For instance, Samsung owners shouldn't be hurting for added entertainment. The company recently announced that its customers have downloaded over two million apps in under a year.
For a look at some of Samsung's offerings, as well as the other content available to connected Smart TV owners, check out our "12 Must-Have HDTV Apps."

What I've Been Up To...
Labels: personal, real wedding
Sorry for the sparse postings over the past year (eeek!), I'm in my last year of school for my degree in journalism, and I also do event planning and design, so things (like my blog) unfortunately fall through the cracks. But I wanted to share something that I've been working on for school that is tied to my professional life. I had to put together a four page magazine spread, my first ever, and I got to use pictures from a wedding that I did this past summer! I'm pretty pleased with the final result, and I thought I'd use this as a teaser while I put together a proper post on their wedding.

DIY Valentine's Truffles
A sweet Valentine's idea - stay in and make some decadent DIY truffles with your mate. So romantic (and decadent!) This is also be a fun party idea: have a mini 'make your own truffle' buffet. Serve with brandy, rum, red wine or whisky for the gentlemen.

Amazing DIY Chocolate Truffles from Jamie Oliver
makes about 50 teaspoon-sized truffles
• 1 1/4 cups double cream
• a knob of unsalted butter
• finely grated zest from 1 clementine
• 10 ounces good-quality dark chocolate (70% cocoa solids), broken into small pieces
• a pinch sea salt
• a splash of brandy
• a handful of mixed nuts (Brazil nuts, toasted almonds and hazelnuts)
• 3 tablespoons Dutch process cocoa powder, to serve
• 1 pack biscotti, to serve
• 1 bottle of Vin Santo, to serve
Put the cream in a pan over a medium heat and let it heat up. You don't want it boiling, just hot. As soon as tiny bubbles start to appear, add the knob of butter and the clementine zest. Once the butter has melted, pour this hot mixture over the chocolate pieces, whisking as you go, so the chocolate melts nice and slowly. If the mixture splits slightly, don't worry, you can bring it right by adding a splash of boiling water.
Add a pinch of salt to the mixture; the smallest pinch of salt actually makes chocolate taste even chocolatier! Stir in a splash of brandy.
Once completely melted and smooth, pour your melted chocolate mixture into a nice little serving dish or bowl. Pop this in the fridge for about 2 hours to set. You can always do this a few days before you need it if you want. About 30 minutes before you're ready to make your truffles, pull the bowl out of the fridge and let the chocolate warm up to room temperature.
Put your mixed nuts into a plastic bag and use a rolling pin to bash them up quite finely. Get some little saucers or bowls and put the nuts in one and your cocoa powder in the other. Put a teacup filled with boiled water on the tray and pop a few teaspoons in there for scooping the chocolate. Get everyone around the table to spoon their own truffles out of the serving dish and roll them in cocoa powder, crushed nuts or anything else you fancy. Or, you can let them smear their truffles over a biscotti like some posh Nutella! Serve with a few glasses of your chilled Vin Santo.

Another day, another AMG.
Or so it seems as Mercedes' performance car division continues to expand its onslaught. The latest is one of the new breed of AMG models that bridge the gap between the regular Benz line-up and the full-blown German muscle cars.
It is the GLC43, which joins the C43 sedan, wagon, Coupe and Cabriolet getting the same powertrain and suspension modifications by AMG. The SUV is powered by the same 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 petrol engine, nine-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive system.
The engine is tuned to produce 270kW of power and 520Nm, that's an extra 115kW and 170Nm above the GLC 250 and leaves space for the imminent arrival for the GLC63 to sit above it.
But for now this is the GLC range's new hero and fills the role nicely. Standard gear includes AMG's adjustable air suspension with Comfort, Sport and Sport+ modes to give it a more dynamic edge than the rest of the range.
There is also more rubber on the road, with standard 21-inch AMG alloys wrapped in 255/40 tyres up front and 285/35 on the rear (compared to 255/45 and 255/45 on the GLC 250).
AMG's handiwork is evident as soon as you fire up the GLC43, there's more intent to the engine note, even at idle.
On the move the nine-speed auto works well, one of the best of its kind, with smooth changes and an intuition about what the right ratio is.
Driven sedately the GLC43 has all the same manners you're accustomed to with the GLC, but when you get the chance to unleash the full potential of the engine it doesn't disappoint. There's a mean growl from the V6 that matches strong mid-range punch.
Mercedes claims it will do the 0-100km/h sprint in just 4.9-seconds and from the driver's seat it doesn't feel like a boast. In the sport modes the transmission reacts quickly to extract maximum performance from the engine.
Thanks to the air suspension the ride and handling is a match for the engine too. Even in Comfort settings the ride is on the firm ride, but not as uncomfortable as the regular GLC's steel spring set-up.
In Sport and Sport+ the suspension tightens and improves the responsiveness of the GLC... to a point. This is after all still an SUV and as such there is more lean into the corners than you get from the rest of the C-Class AMG 43 range.
Push it hard through a corner and it doesn't take much for it to begin to understeer (the front wheels pushing wide), but that it to be expected in such a tall vehicle.
It looks the part too with an AMG bodykit as standard, along with leather upholstery, navigation, head-up display and a Burmester surround sound system.
On the safety front you get nine airbags, a 360 degree camera, adaptive cruise control, active lane keeping assist, active blind spot assist and autonomous emergency braking.
The GLC43 is priced from $101,400 (plus on-road costs) which more than $30,000 more than the GLC 250 and puts the AMG in the same ballpark as the Audi SQ5 Plus (from $108,900) and Porsche Macan GTS (from $109,200). But it has no trouble holding its own against those rivals.
If you want the most dynamic version of the AMG 43 you're better off looking at the sedan or coupe. The GLC offers up a different experience with all the space and practicality of an SUV but with the heart of a sporty car.

And right from those early days, leaving a gift in a Will has been one of the most important ways our supporters have helped us continue our work.
Fanny Walker was one person whose wonderful generosity has made an enormous difference for years after her death. Fanny was the owner of the Falkland Park mansion and estate. It was her wish that, after her death, the house and part of the estate should be offered in trust to Spurgeon's College. Her husband, Charles, made sure her wish was carried out and thanks to her kindness the College was able to move to the site in 1923.
You don't have to live in a mansion to need a Will, or to leave a gift in your Will. Whether we are leaving a little or a great deal, having a proper Will is the only way to make sure what we leave goes where we want it to. Without a will, our loved ones could have unnecessary problems and complications at a difficult time.
After you have provided for your family and friends, please consider leaving a gift to Spurgeon's College
You may want to support the College because you may have been trained here yourself, or you have have benefitted from the training given to a Minister in your church. Or you may have seen at first hand the transforming work of trained ministers or missionaries in your own community.
But leaving a gift in your Will is not just about past memories. It is a way to help make sure that the future of the college remains strong and clear.
A gift in your Will could be the most affordable gift you can make, and the gift with the most lasting effect. Spurgeon's College has only come to this part in its history because of gifts left to us over the years and a gift in your Will will help the College meet the challenges of coming years. After you have provided for your family and friends, even a modest percentage of the residue could make a huge difference.
In return for your help you'll gain the satisfaction of knowing that you are helping to build leaders for God for generations to come.
Leaving a gift in your Will can be straightforward and inexpensive. And if you already have a Will, you can make an addition at any time through a codicil. After prayer consideration of your situation, it's best to consult a professional advisor. You can download some suggested wording here, which you might find helpful.
We understand that the details of your Will are private and personal. However, if you feel able to let us know that you are leaving a gift to College, we would value the chance to say thank you. You can download a form here to let us know about your gift.
We specially appreciate gifts for our general purposes, and you can be reassured that the officers of the College will use your gift wisely and carefully to further the work of the College where it is most needed at the time. However, if you are thinking about supporting a particular area, we would be happy to discuss with you how a potential gift could be used. Please contact Helen Stokley at the College by post or by email: firstname.lastname@example.com

Michigan football coach Rich Rodriguez on facing Alabama in 2012: It's a great opener
As big as the Michigan football team's season-opener traditionally is, Rich Rodriguez knows 2012 will draw even more interest.
The Wolverines will face Alabama on Sept. 1, 2012, at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas, in a deal announced Thursday. The game will be the fourth meeting between the Wolverines and Crimson Tide. The previous three meetings came in bowl games with Michigan winning a overtime thriller over the Crimson Tide in the 2000 Orange Bowl.
"It's a great opener," Rodriguez said on his weekly radio show Thursday night. "That's going to be a very exciting day.
Rodriguez said he expects that the deal would allow a 50-50 split in tickets between Michigan and Alabama fans. The Crimson Tide will be considered the home team for the prime-time game, which will be nationally televised by either CBS or ESPN.
It's a game between two traditional college football powers that Rodriguez said should generate a lot of excitement. Not only with fans, but with his players as well. The game will be part of the annual Cowboys Stadium Classic which will feature LSU and Oregon next season.
"It's going to be two great programs, that will be the whole talk the whole summer," Rodriguez said. "I know our players, the underclassmen, are very excited about it."
Last month, Michigan athletic director Dave Brandon said the matchup was the kind of big-stage games that he would occasionally like to see the Wolverines play. He said it showed that the Wolverines are not afraid to go play "anybody at any time."
The season opener against the Crimson Tide will only be the start of a tough slate for the Wolverines. The two following weeks are currently open, but Michigan will then travel to Notre Dame and then at Purdue. The Wolverines also face Big Ten newcomer Nebraska on the road as well as Minnesota and rival Ohio State away from the confines of Michigan Stadium.
Regardless, Rodriguez and his fellow coaches are looking forward to the Texas showdown with Alabama.
Michigan running backs coach Fred Jackson said on Rodriguez's radio show said the game could also help with recruiting. Jackson, the longest-tenured member of the Michigan coaching staff, is responsible for recruiting Texas - an area that Michigan coaches have traditionally hit hard in the past.
"It's great when you can put your program down in the South," Jackson said. "I think that shows people what your program is all about."

to every day spin, spin, spin...there is a season, spin, spin, spin...and more losses to michigan football under rich rod... apologies to the Byrds for that one.... Seriously this team has shown no signs of serious improvement under rich rod...and save one great player in D Rob, we would be looking at 2-4 record right now and y'all know it... we are that bad and it wont improve...this is year 3 folks....year 3.
Fri, Oct 15, 2010 : 1:27 p.m.
First lorain don't pull your blue collar attitude with me. I am the one on second shift in the auto plant busting my hump 6-7 days a week. Unlike you who I believe is pushing some papers around to look busy while you rave about richyrich. The first thing richy did when he got here is throw the whole team, past coaching staff and University under the bus with his comments and then tell you to "get a life". He who says he understands the traditions of the University of Michigan football program and then proceed to break almost all of them. *See the number 1 foundation. Who almost singlehandedly raised the money to build the hospital? People in the media and public eye have to be very pc nowadays so don't take what they say at face value. I mean come on from calling for Lloyd's job when his team goes 8-3 to firing Mo when got drunk and did some crying in public. How far have we fallen to let richy do what he does and issue him a free pass. Ask wvu about his dedication to the team. Go Blue for life!

Soap,......Yeeep, I guess you're right! So obviously, Gary Moeller, Jerry Hanlon, Don Nehland, et al, are supporting a guy that has 'no integrity'. Sure, it's all so clear to me now! You and the other 'holier than thou', RR haters, can't tolerate ANYONE who is a bluecollar guy, who has had to work his way up. Rich, Rita, and their assitants & families, have had to earn everything they've ever gotten. I guess it's a 'lack of integrity' when Barwis, and his staff, worked with Brock Mealer, when NO ONE else, gave him a chance of ever walking again! I guess it's a 'lack of integrity' when Rich and his players go out to CS Mott, and spend time with the kids and their families! I guess it's a 'lack of integrity' when Rich and the coaches push these young players to be the best that they can be, on, AND off, the field! I guess it's a 'lack of integrity', when Rich will never say a negative word about players, or former players, no matter what. Yep, I'm getting it now... Sorry soap, but this team, and this program, WILL succeed, because of the dedication to 'team', that has been handed down from BO, through the coaches I mentioned above. Running down this staff while they are rebuilding a program, doesn't support the 'team', it attacks it.
Fri, Oct 15, 2010 : 12:01 p.m.
haha lorain said 69. All joking aside lorain, orlando, forever21, theo and all the other rr lovers don't understand is there is more to a coach then wins and loses. Even if that weren't true your argument for rr still wouldn't hold water. Check to see was you king's record against top 25 teams is or how does his teams do in the "big" game? Even with a great qb and rb and something close to a defense. Oh I forgot rr doesn't "do" defense. He is the head "coach" after all! All you rr lovers need to watch the interview with Coach Harbaugh about when he received his first head coaching job and the phone call he got from Bo. Good stuff let me tell you. Go Blue for life!
Fri, Oct 15, 2010 : 10:46 a.m.
Bo: turned down Texas A/M and a TON of money to remain loyal to his team, that he built from the ground up, and to remain to loyal to his institution. RR: left alma mater and home WVU and his team in the midst of bowl preparation, one game after missing the national championship. Before telling his team, called a recruit to try to get him to switch loyalties and come to UM. Shredded papers on the way out. Yup. I see the similarities.

ChelseaBob: Right you are. I agree with every word. If you don't know what integrity is, it can't be explained to you.
Fri, Oct 15, 2010 : 9:19 a.m.
Chelseabob, explain this integrity problem? Is it the "family values" that Boren felt was missing before he betrayed his family and went to play for the enemy? Or is it the practicegate hoopla that was blown out of proportion by a "journalist" who went into the story trying to create a controversy? I'm sick of hearing about how rich rod is "sleazy" when he has done nothing to earn such a slanderous label. If you have problems with his coaching style, fine. That is a valid opinion. But to resort to personal attacks on his character when there has been nothing to support such accusations is ridiculous.
Lorain Steelmen
Fri, Oct 15, 2010 : 8:59 a.m.
ChelseaBob, actually, I DO understand the importance of integrity! So lets just examine 'integrity, shall we?! The biggest rap on Rich has been that his teams 'worked too hard'. Yep,a whooping 65 hours over two years! Can you IMAGINE what Bo would have said, when the Freep, launched their distorted attacks? The air would have been 'blue', no pun intended! Bo would have cut them to ribbons! Rich is no more 'sleazy' than Bo was. They both WORKED their kids, hard. The problem that Rich has, besides the obvious lack of talent, IS, that Lloyd allowed this program to slip into a 'countryclub/entitlement' mindset. And, frankly, it takes a while to clean that mess up. Thanks to Lloyd, who by the way, is AWOL. It has been left to Gary Moeller and Jerry Hanlon to support the Michigan coach. As a Michigan grad, I also support Rich. I was here in '69 when Bo arrived. I LIKE the fact that Rich is a 'blue collar' guy from a poor background. He IS very much like Bo! The only difference is, that Rich is an offensive genius, while Bo was a defensive genius. I can handle that. But the UM 'preppies', that look down their noses, need to get over themselves, or move on.
Fri, Oct 15, 2010 : 8:13 a.m.
RR will be gone, and not because of W/L record, but because he doesn't have the integrity to run this program. That was obvious from day one, and that is why alums like me want him gone. I could be proud of program at 8 and 4 under Lloyd or Bo, because I knew we followed the rules and did things the right way. Now, we lose and we're sleazy. If RR wins out and goes to BCS bowl, I'll still want him gone. If you don't understand the importance of integrity, I can't explain it to you.
Fri, Oct 15, 2010 : 8:03 a.m.
Will the excuse that year be that there are to many young guys on the d line? Hopefully recruiting prospers this year and next and brings some stars in on the d side of the ball. It will be interesting to see robinson progress over the next 2 years as well! If he makes the steps each year like he did this one then he will be almost impossible to stop. D step up this week! This game is huge as long as michigan shows up and doesnt get mopped and you would expect that after next year michigan should be a top 10 team (if the d grows and gets better). This should be a number 5 vs. 8 game first week.
Fri, Oct 15, 2010 : 8:03 a.m.
Orlandormichfan is right. You get rid of RR and you can expect at least another 3 years of being terrible. Every coach deserves at least 4 or 5 years to develop a program. He has the offense clicking and is recruiting hard on the defensive side of things for next year. I don't understand why people have hated him so much from the beginning.
Fri, Oct 15, 2010 : 7:39 a.m.
its funny how things go..i hope all you R.R. haters get what you want, because if you think it will miraculously get better if we get rid of the coach you best think again..and who are you gonna get??? Harbaugh?? so sick of hearing that, you all think he is your knight in shining armor..wow, such fickle michigan fans..yes it sucks losing like this..but R.R. isnt on the field, you all act like he is the one who cant stop an opposing offense. we will sink lower and it will take longer to get back up if we change coaches..then you same people will be on here wishing that coach would get fired..changing coaches keeps recruits away, but that's what you all want..nobody anymore is happy about anything..i remember the same stuff being written about Carr...how many championships did he bring us???how many???? a shared 1??? okay then he was the greatest coach ever.. i personally hope R.R. is coaching when we play Bama..but i guess i am in the minority..be careful what you all are wishing for....you just might get it, and it might come back to bite you in the end...

Should be an awesome game, but we all know that Nick Saben will be coaching at USC by then. Dantonio will be coaching the Lions, Sarah Palin will have a 17 point lead in the poles over the Bamster! And, as Theo says, UM will be defending it's first NC under Coach Rod. Go Blue!
Fri, Oct 15, 2010 : 7:04 a.m.
Actually Flint Maize: DR will be a senior that year (if all goes according to plan) and 2013 would be breaking in a new relatively inexperienced QB (assuming Gardner sticks around and sits behind DR). That type of schedule is awesome. I think shying away from tough competition in favor of bottom feeders is exactly what college football should NOT be doing.
Fri, Oct 15, 2010 : 5:39 a.m.
Rich Rodriguez will be the coach in 2012 and Michigan will have a good team. However, I question why the athletic director would do this when we are already playing at ND, Nebraska, and OSU in the same season. 2013 wold have made much more sense. Unlike some here, I am All in For Michigan and All in For Coach Rodriguez!!!
3 And Out
Fri, Oct 15, 2010 : 3:57 a.m.
Hopefully Rich Rod will be able to get a table at BW3s in Tampa for that game....
Fri, Oct 15, 2010 : 3:41 a.m.
Go Blue! I believe that in 2 years, UM defense will be top 40, hopefully top 20. The offense, top 5. So, we'll be ready for this challenge. To UM fans: Trust David Brandon to do the right thing with the coaching staff. Please stop the ignorant and childish personal bashing! Isn't HE enough of a UM man for you? GO BLUE!
Thu, Oct 14, 2010 : 9:51 p.m.
For this, I will agree wholeheartedly with Rich Ro. This is the type of game that college football (and specifically Michigan) fans want, rather than the App States, the Del States, the Bowling Greens. Thank you David Brandon for immediately improving our scheduling. For those who love the 'easy' schedules, I say phooey! Both teams know that there is a chance they will lose (no comments from the peanut gallery) and I admire that both schools take that risk. What a great schedule that year. Hopefully we will have a D by then.
Thu, Oct 14, 2010 : 9:34 p.m.
Amen Blueman Amen.

Yes RR, it's going to be a very exciting day, very exciting since you won't be on the sideline coaching UM.

Depending on how you want to interpret it, Bill Gates has said in the last couple of days that Microsoft definitely will -- or definitely won't -- actively pursue partnerships to replace the failed bid for Yahoo. The "independent way" statement aside, obviously Microsoft is going to spend at least some of the money it was ready to put down for Yahoo on strategic acquisitions.
Interestingly, Kara Swisher at All Things Digital writes today that there is already a new strategy. It even has a code name: Project Granola. I don't understand how spending on "marketing, technology and research" is "organic," or how it is different from any other day at Microsoft, but I do understand the move toward a possible full acquisition of Facebook, instead of Microsoft's current stake. And I want to see more of the like.
I'm not going to list the "hot" Web 2.0 companies that Microsoft should look into. Everyone has done that. Microsoft knows what's out there. Long term, a series of small acquisitions of Web 2.0 and social-networking sites, plus an integration plan for them, brings in innovative thinkers, devoted users and no risk of more anti-regulatory fights.

Since I may or may not have two races left this year this might be totally irrelevant but...
There is a theory that doing two workouts a day may reap greater benefits than one long one with the same intensity. The key is recovery.
You want do your workout, refuel, and rest. So you'll be doing the same "work" but getting a greater amount of recovery.
On Tuesday at work, in my haste to enter a work order into the computer I neglected to do a couple simple tasks to make the repair complete. Not wanting to leave this to my coworkers I decided to ride into work to take care of it first thing on Wednesday (my day off). But I had a mtb ride planned with James for the afternoon.
Perfect opportunity to test the theory.
How'd it go?
I got to ride my bike twice in one day and have an excuse to lay around napping and watching Olympic Beach Volleyball all afternoon while I waited for ride number 2.
Will I see significant gains from this.
For one, neither workout had much intensity, and two, you'd need to do this type of workout consistently, ie more than once before you could measure any gains or losses (duh).
I did feel pretty good on the ride home from work last night.
But there was the napping; ah, the napping...

Several friends have told me that it is not obvious how to post comments to a blog. It is a bit weird, and the design of the form is poor. So here are the instructions.
Press the little comment text under a posting and a small pop up window opens. This window cannot be resized (at least not under Internet Explorer). You put the text of your comment into the box. Then you need to scroll down. You are asked for some identification and you have choices. You can put your own blogger id in the email and password combination, but that isn't something most would probably want to do. You can also post anonymously by checking the anonymous button. The other choice is to press the "nickname" button, and put your nickname in there. That should not be an email address or anything that is directly traceable back to you, but is likely to be known by me or the small community of folks reading this. So for example, Madame comments under that name or occasionally as Mme.
You are also asked to enter a security string. This is a collection of characters (sometimes numbers too) that are displayed on the screen in a way that can easily be read by people, and are hard to read by machines. By entering that string of characters, you are essentially saying, "This is a human entering the information, not a bot". Try it and see.
