Secretary Pritzker Swears in New Commercial Service OfficersJune 20, 2014
This post originally appeared on the Department of Commerce blog.
U.S. Commerce Secretary Penny Pritzker today swore in 24 new Foreign Commercial Service Officers and one Intellectual Property Attachè at the Commerce Department. The ceremony marked an exciting beginning to these officers' careers in overseas and domestic markets where they will work to strengthen the American economy by supporting U.S. businesses in the global marketplace.
The administration is committed to increasing U.S. exports, which support millions of jobs. U.S. exports have set records for four consecutive years, reaching $2.3 trillion in 2013. These exports now support 11.3 million jobs in the United States. The recent launch of the NEI/NEXT campaign by Secretary Pritzker has built on the momentum of the recent growth to encourage American companies to take their business to overseas markets.
Expanding trade and investment is a central part of the Department's 'Open for Business Agenda' and having an overseas presence is one critical way to support U.S. businesses seeking to grow in foreign markets.
During a recent trip to Burma, Secretary Pritzker announced the Department of Commerce will expand its overseas resources to help U.S. businesses navigate additional global markets and sell their goods and services to customers all over the world. The Department's International Trade Administration will add a total of 68 new positions and open offices in five new countries, including its first in Burma. The expansion is largely focused on fast-growing markets in Asia and sub-Saharan Africa. The Department of Commerce will soon add new offices in Africa and Asia in order to facilitate exports in these critical markets.
The new officers bring a wealth of knowledge and experience from their prior private or public sector service. Of the more than 3,800 candidates, these 25 men and women were chosen because of their constant resourcefulness, tenacity, and of course, diplomacy.
These new Commercial Service Officers play a vital role in the enhancement of American businesses. They support U.S. businesses in overcoming trade barriers, finding global business opportunities and partners, and attracting investment to U.S. shores. These officers will be the boots on the ground, leading the charge to open new markets and helping companies compete in the global marketplace.

A recent randomized, controlled trial showed that daily oral preexposure chemoprophylaxis (PrEP) was effective for HIV prevention in men who have sex with men (MSM). The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently provided interim guidance for PrEP in MSM at high risk for HIV. Previous studies did not reach a consistent estimate of its cost-effectiveness.
To estimate the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of PrEP in MSM in the United States.
Dynamic model of HIV transmission and progression combined with a detailed economic analysis.
Published literature.
MSM aged 13 to 64 years in the United States.
PrEP was evaluated in both the general MSM population and in high-risk MSM and was assumed to reduce infection risk by 44% on the basis of clinical trial results.
New HIV infections, discounted quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) and costs, and incremental cost-effectiveness ratios.
Initiating PrEP in 20% of MSM in the United States would reduce new HIV infections by an estimated 13% and result in a gain of 550 166 QALYs over 20 years at a cost of $172 091 per QALY gained. Initiating PrEP in a larger proportion of MSM would prevent more infections but at an increasing cost per QALY gained (up to $216 480 if all MSM receive PrEP). Preexposure chemoprophylaxis in only high-risk MSM can improve cost-effectiveness. For MSM with an average of 5 partners per year, PrEP costs approximately $50 000 per QALY gained. Providing PrEP to all high-risk MSM for 20 years would cost $75 billion more in health care–related costs than the status quo and $600 000 per HIV infection prevented, compared with incremental costs of $95 billion and $2 million per infection prevented for 20% coverage of all MSM.
PrEP in the general MSM population would cost less than $100 000 per QALY gained if the daily cost of antiretroviral drugs for PrEP was less than $15 or if PrEP efficacy was greater than 75%.
When examining PrEP in high-risk MSM, the investigators did not model a mix of low- and high-risk MSM because of lack of data on mixing patterns.
PrEP in the general MSM population could prevent a substantial number of HIV infections, but it is expensive. Use in high-risk MSM compares favorably with other interventions that are considered cost-effective but could result in annual PrEP expenditures of more than $4 billion.

With two starters out, two more on the bench and an 18-point half time deficit to Grand, things didn't look good for San Juan girls' basketball team on January 14 in Blanding.
With the chips stacked against them, the Lady Broncos didn't quit. Instead they rallied, holding the Red Devils to five points in the third quarter and exploding for 30 points of their own in the final quarter.
When the frenzy finally settled, San Juan found their freshman back-up point guard on the free throw line down by one with seconds left.
Fans were on the edge of their seats when Megan Grover sent her attempt toward the basket, but just like she had done it a million times, she calmly knocked down the shot to tie the game and send it into overtime.
Ultimately the Broncos lost in overtime, 67-61, but not for lack of effort. The Red Devils put the game away from the free throw line as they attempted 60 free throws, compared to just 23 for the Broncos.
Grand took charge of the game early on jumping out to an early lead and holding onto it throughout the first quarter, 15-8.
The second quarter was more of the same for the Broncos, while the Red Devils extended the lead to 18 at the break, 34-16.
Any chances of a comeback looked very slim after intermission. San Juan's bench sparked a comeback as the Broncos held the Red Devils to just five points and scored 11 to cut the lead to 39-27.
San Juan scored more in the final quarter than the previous three combined. The injured Heidi Hiatt return to the court as well as Tyla Morris and Sara Morley, who had been on the bench with foul trouble for most of the game.
The Broncos capped off a 30-point quarter when Grover knocked down her free throw to tie the score.
Arizona Carr gave the Broncos an early lead in overtime but the Red Devils outscored San Juan 10-4 to claim a 67-61 win.
Morley led the Broncos with 23 points and 10 rebounds. Carr scored 16 points and pulled down 20 rebounds, including seven on the offensive end.
Kelsey Flavel added six points and seven rebounds, and Hiatt had five points, including a three pointer. Tyla Morris, Rashee Morris, Micah Daniels and Mary Royer each chipped in two. Morris also had six assists and four steals.
Megan Grover rounds out the scoring with one. Krista Grover secured two key rebounds and two steals down the stretch.
In the second game of the week, San Juan hosted Wasatch Academy on January 17. The Broncos controlled the game from start to finish to secure a 49-41 win.
The Broncos played well on both ends of the court, leading 13-4 after one.
Wasatch Academy made some adjustments to slow down San Juan a bit, but the Broncos took a 23-12 lead into the break.
Both teams played well in the third quarter and the Broncos led 38-24.
Wasatch Academy made a run in the fourth quarter, scoring 17. San Juan remained just ahead of the Tigers and claimed their first region win, 49-41.
Tyla Morris led the Broncos with 13 points, seven rebounds, four assists and five steals.
Morley added 10 points and seven boards. Emily Royer had eight points and three assists in her return to the Bronco lineup.
Hiatt added seven points and four rebounds. Jade Palmer returned to action for San Juan, scoring five and dishing out three assists. Daniels scored four and Flavel tossed in a bucket to round out the scoring for San Juan.
The Lady Broncos take on North Sevier in Salina on Friday and take on South Sevier in Monroe on Saturday. Both Region 15 games have 7 p.m. tipoffs.

NEW YORK, Sept. 29 /Standard Newswire/ -- On Friday, a public-private partnership with General Mills, a leading U.S. food company, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) was announced at the closing of the Fifth Annual Meeting of the Clinton Global Health Initiative. This partnership will improve the capacity of small and medium-sized food businesses across sub-Saharan Africa to produce healthy, fortified food products.
The partnership links the technical and business expertise of General Mills and up to nine additional food companies and associations with up to 200 small and medium-sized mills and food processors in 15 sub-Saharan African countries, with the goal of improving those companies' ability to produce high-quality, nutritious and safe food at affordable prices. The partnership, which could potentially reach a value of $21 million, also benefits an estimated 1.6 million smallholder farmers who supply these businesses.
"This Partnership provides us with a practical way to further our mission of Nourishing Lives in Africa," said Peter Erickson, General Mills SVP of Innovation, Technology & Quality. "We have already witnessed the great things that can happen when we connect our employees with small, but talented and growing, food processors in Africa and we are excited to see this initiative grow."
A key component of the United States global Food Security initiative is to help countries link small farmers to local markets to increase family income and food security. By improving the manufacturing and business practices of these local firms strengthens the local markets and enables production of better quality food products at lower costs.
"This partnership ties in with our mission to stimulate economic development, improve the capacity of agricultural processers, and support the health and wellness of farmers and small and medium-sized business owners across sub-Saharan Africa," said USAID Acting Administrator Alonzo Fulgham. "We have high hopes that this collaboration will encourage sustainable economic and social growth in some of the world's neediest countries."
Through PEPFAR, America supports life-saving antiretroviral treatment for over two million people in Africa, but some of the patients are severely malnourished. As part of these patients' prescription, PEPFAR includes therapeutic and supplemental foods to ensure the effectiveness of the drugs, but sometimes has to rely on expensive imports. This partnership allows PEPFAR teams to source those foods locally, stimulating the local economy and promoting food security in areas heavily affected by HIV/AIDS.
"If PEPFAR HIV/AIDS programs and broader health and development efforts are going to be sustainable, they must be owned and led by partner countries," said Ambassador Eric Goosby, U.S. Global AIDS Coordinator. "This partnership with General Mills and USAID will support local food companies to help meet the nutritional needs of people living with HIV/AIDS, while bringing health benefits to the larger population through improved nutrition and broader economic development."
The long-term vision shared by General Mills and the U.S. Government is for the partnership to engage multiple food companies and food related associations, making available industrial expertise to processors in Africa. The core expertise of their food scientists, process engineers, and operations managers can transform the African agribusinesses, making operations more efficient and expanding potential markets and product offerings.
The U.S. Government works across agencies addressing health and development to connect General Mills and other partner food companies to the beneficiary small and medium-sized enterprises on the ground. Over three years, the consortium of companies is expected to contribute up to 218,000 labor hours worth up to $17 million. General Mills' total contribution is expected to be $5.4 million, comprised of cash and 65,000 labor hours. The U.S. Government commitment is initially expected to be $1.8 million, potentially ramping up to $4 million as more companies join the consortium.

Pope Benedict XVI made the tough, critical decision to relinquish his duties, but increasingly more people are working into their 70s, 80s and beyond.
As the pope can attest, even if you're toiling in the cushiest of corner offices, 85 is not the new LX.
Pope Benedict XVI, who's logged more than five years as pontiff, announced Monday he will relinquish the papacy at the end of the month. Benedict gave his waning strength as a reason to end his job-for-life, and said his aging body and mind couldn't keep pace with the demands of the globe-trotting role.
Despite the pontiff's decision, however, a rising number of people are staying on the job -- by choice or financial necessity -- well past age 75, at least in the U.S., according to doctors and federal labor figures.
Until he leaves the Vatican, Benedict remains part of an elite roster of 80-plusers still on the job in public roles. They include business magnates John Willard "Bill" Marriott, Jr. (80) and Warren Buffett (82), actors Robert Duvall (82) and Betty White (91), politicians Sen. Frank Lautenberg, D-N.J. (89), and Rep. John Dingell, D-Mich., (86), and journalist Morley Safer (81).
And, at least on the front lines of the U.S. workforce, gray is increasingly the way.
In January, 1.5 million Americans aged 75 and above were employed -- the highest monthly total in at least 10 years, a 21 percent increase over January 2012 and nearly double the number workers from that demographic group who were punching a clock in 2003.
"You're seeing it more often than you used to," said Dr. Sarah McGee, a geriatrician at the University of Massachusetts Medical School. A small number of her patients have worked into their late 70s or 80s, and one man, into his 90s.
"Their health hasn't precluded them from working. If you live to your 80s, you're a survivor anyway," McGee added. "That can be because you've done a good job of taking care of yourself, or because your parents or grandparents lived into their 90s, and you come from good stock.
As Catholics worldwide come to terms with the news that Pope Benedict XVI is abdicating his position, becoming the first pope to do so in more than 700 years, Georg Ratzinger, the pope's brother, says the aging process is impacting him "body and soul." NBC's Richard Engel reports.
Dr. Barbara J. Messinger-Rapport, head of the Center for Geriatric Medicine at the Cleveland Clinic, also can count more of her patients drawing paychecks into their 80s simply because "people are living longer; they're not dying in middle age from heart attacks or strokes due to better diets and medications and they often want to continue to work."
Even for people who remain in relatively good health, their overall cognitive abilities -- including their brain's processing speed -- naturally slows with age, with most folks achieving their quickest thinking around age 30 then plateauing throughout their 40s, Messinger-Rapport said.
"There may be episodic, short-term memory impairments" in advanced years, barring the onset of dementia or other brain diseases, she added. "However, creativity, judgment, long-term memory and organizational ability are maintained and can compensate for deficits in speed of processing."
A person's accumulated smarts also can raise their intellectual baseline so high that the eventual, age-related decline in some brain functions is far harder to measure or to see, McGee said.
"People who are more educated do better on these cognitive tests," she added. "So to drop (their thinking skills) to a point where it's going to be impacting their day-to-day living, they would have to drop a lot farther" than would others who don't possess that kind of schooling or IQ.
Still, there's no escaping the fact that age can take a toll. Benedict may be the first pope to resign in more than 600 years, but as humans continue to push expected life spans to new heights while their joints, backs and brains strain to keep pace with the extra year, jobsonce thought to be 'til death -- monarch, Supreme Court justice, and, now, pope -- may be not so permanent.
In the Netherlands, Queen Beatrix, 75, said she plans to step down. In America's highest court, 21 justices have retired since 1955, including John Paul Stevens, who was 90 when he left that role in 2010, according to The Associated Press.
In the private world, McGee has had several patients come to her with the age-old, agonizing question: Is it time for me to stop working?
In those few cases, the answers always were, but "they came to the decision themselves," she said, usually because they could not drive any longer due to failing eyesight.
Benedict's decision to abdicate his global duties and surrender his plush trappings came after he already had significantly scaled back his foreign travel -- a routine part of the job and done to sell the Roman Catholic faith to the masses. He also has reduced his audiences with visitors. Overall, his lighter daily load follows what many other older, high-powered workers do, trading, for example their chief executive roles for spots on the board of nonprofits or hospitals, geriatric experts said.
At St. Peter's Basilica, Benedict has of late been riding on a moving platform instead of strolling about 100 yards to the altar.
Vatican spokesman Lombardi said he knows of no medical illness that prompted the decision, adding that the resignation was compelled by a "normal" deterioration of physical and mental strength that comes with old age, according to Catholic News Service.
Ironically, at his age and by Vatican rule, Benedict is five years too old to vote along with the College of Cardinals when they elect his successor. If the Catholic Church has deemed 80 to be the cutoff for having the proper mental faculties to make such a critical decision, what does say about the rest of us? How do we know, as well, when it's time to leave the working world behind?
"I recommend that people cut back on either volunteer or paid jobs when they are unable to physically or cognitively manage them safely -- driving at night for a person with macular degeneration, for example, (or) climbing scaffolds for someone with a balance disorder or (who is) taking a blood thinner. If there is early dementia then that person should cut back on jobs that require handling money," Messinger-Rapport said.
"But it is important for all adults to have meaningful activity, socialization, regular physical activity, and cognitive stimulation," she added. "Many jobs provide that. And if working is in line with the patient's financial and social goals then there may not be a reason to stop unless the job is too physically demanding."

I am a huge fan of Jeff Garlin. I really liked his work going into this shoot for NY Times Magazine, and I am an even bigger fan after working with him.
My friend Sara Coates was recently cast in a movie called Laggies. They just wrapped up filming, so it should be in theaters next year. On one of the first days of filming, Sara sent me a text message with a picture of Jeff. "I'm acting with Jeff!" I immediately thought to myself, "I would love to photograph Jeff Garlin!!!" That was a Sunday night. The next day, I got a call from my rep Julia, and she asked me if I wanted to shoot an assignment for New York Times Magazine. The answer to that question is always yes, and then she said, "It's actor Jeff Garlin." No joke!
This is actually the 3rd time this has happened to me in my career. Anthony Hopkins, Annie Leibovitz, and now Jeff. So naturally I am a big believer in the power of positive thinking, and "putting it out there". I always tell my daughter, you'll never know unless you ask. And now, she has learned the benefits of asking for stickers at any store we walk into. Who knew Chevron had stickers. But that's another story. I can't take all of the credit for many of the great opportunities I have had come my way, but this is the type of job where you have to make things happen, and tell people what you want. Even if it's just declaring to your wife on a Sunday night while watching Netflix that you want to photograph one of your favorite actors.
Jeff walked into the shoot with a Leica around his neck, and I knew right away this was going to be fun. Thank you New York Times Magazine, Gabrielle Plucknette, Clinton Cargill for a wonderful assignment, and thank you Jeff for bringing the magic!
Here is the photo and interview of Jeff Garlin that ran the NY Times Magazine. I was thrilled they chose my favorite image.

Are you interested in developing a short-term study abroad program for your students? The Office of International Programs (OIP) at Ithaca College welcomes proposals for overseas programs. The OIP staff is available to assist faculty, staff and administrators in proposing and designing international programs which are academically, economically and logistically feasible, and which support the educational goals of Ithaca College.
Each year proposals will be reviewed in the context of the total number of international programs to be offered. The College will strive to avoid duplication of programs because there is only a finite number of Ithaca College students who may be interested each year. College sponsored programs should be of sufficient interest to attract the necessary number of participants from the College community for a viable program.

Most critics would say everything but everything is a very vague answer. Gaming sites have been rating the Walking Dead Survival Instinct as a terrible game, but why? In theory, the game had everything to succeed, especially because the title is attached to a very famous TV series: The Walking Dead. But instead, it became a complete disappointment.
What went wrong is this game was created. Trying to cash in off the show and trying to match the success of the title that was avialible on PSN and XBL. The game was rushed out the door with all these problems and they expected this game to be big.
Well, I'll give you a blunt answer as to why it is horse s***.
The FPS genre is the most competitive genre out there, so when reviewing this game, you also have to keep in mind how it stacks up against its competition. Anything higher than a 4 or 5 out of ten for this game is an insult to many other shooters out there.
I myself would give it a 3 or 4, and Aliens Colonial Marines a 4 or 5. If I gave TWD a 6 (which some people did) is wrong IMO, and they shouldn't be reviewing in the FPS genre. I know reviews are opinions, but c'mon, a 6/10 is quite high for this game, considering then enemy AI went back 2 decades with this game.
Also, being able to run through an FPS in 2 hours with nothing but a knife while closing doors on zombies (without killing one of them) is an utter disgrace and insult to all those who built the gaming industry and made it what it is today.
The grammar and punctuation in that article were worse than the game...
I think the game was always destined to be bad after Telltale put out their outstanding game and the fact the developer, Terminal Reality, haven't really made a decent game other than Ghostbusters and that was 4 years ago.

Level: Intermediate
ISPE CEUs: 1.3
Type: Classroom Training Course
With the increasing regulatory scrutiny on combination products, this new highly interactive course provides six (6) different aspects of a combination product which are:
An overview and the intricacies of the GMPs for combination products will be provided that specifically address the challenges and expectations from industry and global regulatory agencies. The development of the basis for the product, testing, and specifications including identifying design inputs, user requirements and design requirements as starting points to the development process will be reviewed in detail.
This classroom course will also include how to test and how to determine the appropriate level of design validation for combination products, which has been a hot topic recently for regulatory bodies. Discussions and interactive sessions for the application of proper design of validation studies, which is critical to assuring that your customers are satisfied and can appropriately use your combination products, will be explored to provide insights into the development for designing validation studies. Additional content will address key questions regarding establishment of appropriate studies to assure that user requirements have been met.
Designing and executing a clinical trial for combination products, which often presents unique challenges, will be explored. To support the market authorization for a combination product, identifying common questions surrounding clinical trial design including sample size requirements, number and extent of clinical studies required, as well as claims that may be made based on the trials will be discussed. Case studies for use of drug delivery systems will be provided for an in-depth review.
Human Factors studies are an integral component of product development for most combination products today. This course will discuss the special considerations for designing formative and summative human factors studies for combination products, including unique user group requirements and how they are defined (elderly, visually impaired, pediatrics), sample size, and environmental use conditions. Course participants will review the US FDA's perspective into common issues and challenges as well as how to address them, and how to best present the information.
Participants should be prepared to work in groups to prepare and organize human factors study data in preparation for a regulatory submission to facilitate a timely US FDA review.
The course will also consider the role of post-marketing safety surveillance and other design corrective and preventive action inputs in product design evolution and validation during the life-cycle of a device containing combination product.
Individuals working with Operations, Regulatory Affairs, Clinical Affairs, Manufacturing, Quality, Product and Process Development Engineering, and Project Management professionals.
This training course is of particular interest to existing and future members of the ISPE Product and Process Development Communities of Practice (COPs).

It's no secret that Microsoft's Internet Explorer has long been the reigning champion of the browser market since the defeat of its other rival, Netscape Navigator, way back in time. Even today, IE's market share stretches to around 70%, give or take 10%, compared to its current rivals like Mozilla's Firefox (the most dominant of its competitors), Apple's Safari or the Opera browser. We won't know the impact of Google's Chrome browser till much later, but it's probably safe to assume that there will be barely a dent in Microsoft's hold over the browser market for now.
While we can't actually speculate on why IE is so popular or on why people aren't switching to the others, we can probably heave a sigh of relief that the latest version of its ever popular browser will definitely catch up to what's already available on its competitors and also introduces a few new tricks to the book like Accelerators, which is like copy and paste on crack (more on that later).
Speed too is another option that has been buffed, though a quick test using the SunSpider JavaScript Benchmark using Firefox, Opera, Chrome, IE7 and IE8 Beta 2 showed that although IE8 lagged far behind compared to the others it still showed an improvement over the previous version. We also did another test on Acid 2 and 3, which showed that IE8 was definitely an improved version compared to its predecessor, being able to render the Acid 2 test page unlike IE7. It still pretty much crashed out on the Acid 3 test though.
*Note that this is not a proper test per se, just a quick test on a notebook to see how each browser performs in an almost real life environment and should not be interpreted as a standard benchmarking process that we normally do.
As you can see, Acid 3 compatibility isn't something that Microsoft is focused on at the moment, as their focus is more towards getting their older IE7 browser working with the newer web standards and delivering a smoother experience to their users . While this does mean that Acid 3 compatibility is probably a long time coming, they do have Acid 2 compatibility down pat. We'll have to wait out this beta period until we can get our hands on the final build to see if IE8 can get reasonable result for the Acid 3 test, so we'll see how the final build turns out in November 2008.
Lastly, there's also no word on the Java engine for the browser. Attempts to ask Microsoft about whether they may consider using the open source V8 engine that's used in Chrome didn't lead anywhere. Our own tests showed that their engine was the slowest of the four browsers tested, so again, we'll have to wait for the final build before we can reasonably conclude the browser's performance and responsiveness.

Twelve is an unusually late start on a string instrument but, as she loved practising, she soon caught up and got a place at the ILEA's specialist Saturday music school then known as CYM. Studies at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama followed. When the call to work for the Philharmonia came, it was amazing they found her, as the family were not on the phone at home: a composer friend living locally took the call to find her and had to drive round to her house personally with details of the rehearsals and concerts. She used her first pay cheque to have a phone line installed and the rest is history!
It's just over 25 years since she first played with the Philharmonia and she still loves practically every minute. Outside of the Orchestra she has many interests, including computers, philosophy, the odd game of bridge, tennis and golf. Above all else though, she cherishes her personal life and her wonderful family home. She is kept rather busy there, not least, by two exceptional cats, collectively known as 'the boys' and, a favourite robin, whom she would very much like 'the boys' to avoid!

Lindsay Posts Bail, Parties All Night, And Hops On Plane Back To L.A.! Maybe That 'Stolen' Passport Finally Turned Up!
The troubled starlet is no longer a fugitive as her lawyers post her $100,000 bail and she prepares to return to Los Angeles – but not before managing to sneak in a little more partying!
Lindsay Lohan has managed to avoid jail AGAIN as the out-of-work actress' attorneys managed to post the required 10% of her $100,000 bail, assuring Lindsay could get back to the difficult task of partying until dawn at the Cannes Film Festival. Good thing you can get back to your important work Lindsay, those alcohol training classes seem to have done wonders for you! Did we mention how much we LOVE these photos of you hard at work? Especially that one with the white powder you claim was set up!
TMZ has photos of you leaving a yacht at 7:30 in the morning after a long night of partying to head home to Los Angeles – what a bummer! Guess the fun has to end sometime!
Lindsay was no doubt celebrating her freedom by partying until the early morning hours, something she's been doing all week while in Cannes —perhaps with new friend Dominic Cooper! Lindsay had claimed she was unable to make it home as she lost her passport in France, even though she did not apply for a new one after claiming it was stolen. This seems like a very questionable story, Lindsay!
Lindsay and her attorney will now appear in court on Monday morning to discuss Lindsay's probation following her 2007 DUI arrest. Lindsay had been required to complete 13 alcohol training classes by Thursday but had only managed to attend ten, opting to head off to Cannes and party rather than finish out the terms of her probation. Isn't Cannes for serious and respected actors Lindsay? You don't even have a film in the festival! It really does seem like jail is just what Lindsay needs!
We hope your trip was sunny and relaxing: looks like you've got some heavy weather ahead, Lindsay!

BOSTON, Mass. -- Pitching was the key Saturday afternoon and Plymouth State's Nora Galvin proved to be too much for the Beacons (15-15, 2-8) as the Panthers (17-15, 6-4) grabbed a 7-1 win in game one and 6-5 victory in game two of Saturday's Little East Conference doubleheader at the UMass Boston Softball Field.
Galvin won both games for Plymouth State, as she pitched 11 and two-thirds of the 14 inning doubleheader. Over the course of the day, Galvin allowed just one run and eight hits while striking out 14 Beacon batters.
The Beacons were led by junior Sue Killilea (Abington, Mass.) who went 4-for-6 on the day with three extra-base hits. Killilea blasted back-to-back triples in Game One to bring her total to nine on the season and added a double on her way to 14 total bases on the day. Killilea also started at catcher for just the second time all season.
Sophomore second baseman Erika Vecchiet (Pequannock, N.J.) added three hits of her own on the day, while senior third baseman Maria Nasta (Andover, Mass.) crushed her first home run of the season.
In game one, Plymouth State struck for five runs in the first three innings and never looked back behind Galvin.
While Killilea enjoyed a 3-for-3 game with three extra-base hits, the only other Beacons to manage a hit against Galvin were Jaci Goodwin (Melrose, Mass.) and Vecchiet.
Freshman pitcher Michelle Zullo (Everett, Mass.) pitched a complete game for the Beacons allowing seven runs, six earned on 14 hits. Zullo also struck out eight Panthers to tie her season-high.
The Panthers scored two runs in the first on a series of softly hit balls. With runners on second and third with one out, Jackie Digman hit a soft hit ball in the second base hole that Vecchiet couldn't get to in time to make it a 1-0 game. Jackie Digman followed with a single up the middle to make it a 2-0 game, before Zullo got out of the inning.
Plymouth State added two more in the top of the second, when Jackson doubled and Bove followed with a triple to right field and scored on an overthrow that went into the Beacons dugout.
After the Panthers added one more in the top of the third, UMass Boston scratched across their sole run of the game in the bottom half of the inning. Goodwin became the first Beacons base runner of the day when she walked with one out and Killilea followed with a triple to left center that scored Goodwin easily. Killilea was stranded at third though, as UMass Boston could only make it a 5-1 game after three innings of play.
Neither team scored for the next three innings, as Galvin and Zullo dominated the opposing batters.
In the seventh inning, Plymouth State put together back-to-back singles and a double steal to put two runners in scoring position for Taylor Mancini. Mancini followed with a two-run double to left center to cap off the scoring in game one.
Game two had a much offensive feel to begin, as both coaches pitched a different starter to begin the game.
Freshmen designated player Amanda Perry (Worcester, Mass.) paced the Beacons with two hits and two RBI, while Lisa Polsonetti (Revere, Mass.) and Vecchiet added two hits of their own.
Senior pitcher Kara Willis (Burrillville, R.I.) got the start for the Beacons but failed to record a batter as she allowed four runs, three earned on three hits and three walks before leaving. Zullo relieved Willis with the bases loaded and proceeded to shut the Panthers rally down, keeping the score at 4-0.
For the game, Zullo (9-7) pitched another complete game, allowing just two earned runs on six hits and two walks, while striking out three hitters but still recorded the loss.
After going down 1,2,3 in the first against freshmen pitcher Cynthia Barata, the Beacons pounded the Panthers pitcher in the second and third inning for five combined runs.
Perry led off the bottom of the second with a single and advanced to second on a sacrifice bunt from Natalia Bouyea (East Longmeadow, Mass.). Polsonetti followed with a double down the left field line to score Perry and make it a 4-1 game. Right fielder Samantha Hemstock (Northford, Conn.) tacked on another run when she smashed a single to right-center field to allow Polsonetti to easily score.
In the third inning, Nasta started the rally with a home run to left center field, to tie Perry for the second-most home runs in program history with nine. Vecchiet followed with a single with one out and scampered to third on a seeing-eye single from Killilea that found it's way through the right-side. Perry followed with another big hit, a single to right-center this time, that scored both runner and tied the game at four.
The Perry hit would signal the end the day for Barrata, as Galvin came in in relief. After Bouyea advanced Perry to second with a sacrifice bunt, Polsonetti connected for a single up the middle to score Perry and give the Beacons their lone lead of the day at 5-4.
It wouldn't last long though for UMass Boston. Plymouth State tied the game at five in the top of the fourth and made it a 6-5 game in the top of the fifth. Catcher Sam Hebert led off with a single and Kristina Bove came in to pinch run for her. Bove advanced to second on a wild pitch and scored shortly afterward on a single up the middle from Barata who moved to left field after being taken off the mound.
The Panthers looked like they might score again in the top of the sixth as they put runners on first and second with one out but Bouyea made a fantastic defensive play to keep the game at 6-5. Digman sent a flare to right center field that Bouyea chased after and caught when she dove for the ball just before it landed. Zullo followed with a strikeout to end the frame.
UMass Boston just couldn't get anything going against Galvin who moved to (9-6) with the win, as they managed singles in the sixth and seventh but failed to get the runner past second base.
The Beacons will be back in action Tuesday when they travel to take on Southern Maine in a Little East Conference doubleheader.

Tad Boyle staying at CU this year, but just how long can the Buffs keep him?
Consider this a warning in a largely new life for the Colorado athletic department and fans of the basketball program. The coach, Tad Boyle, is a wanted man; a truly wanted man.
This week was first, but not nearly the last in what will no doubt become a yearly struggle for the University of Colorado to keep its basketball coach.
Yes, Texas A&M was interested in speaking with Boyle about its vacant head coaching spot, a position opened by the departure of Mark Turgeon – one of Boyle's coaching mentors – to Maryland. But fans can feel secure in the fact that Boyle will more than likely be on the CU bench next season, the first for the Buffs in the inaugural year of the Pac 12. And by more than likely, I mean there's a 99.9 percent chance he's returning to the team.
This year probably wasn't great timing anyway with his arrival at CU barely a calendar year old. But know this: Colorado is probably going to have to do what it can to up the financial ante if it intends on retaining Boyle past this season and early indications are it will. With incentives Boyle makes just north of $735,000. Don't be surprised if eventually that number gets pushed to the brink of $1 million or, pardon the pun, a tad more.
It's new territory for a university a little more familiar with firing its coaches of late than having to battle to keep them. But in one season Boyle went from a relative unknown to being on the brink of a bonafide hot commodity. Last season – his first at CU – he led the Buffs to the most wins in a season in program history with 24. Along the way he got a team pegged by some to be a good throwaway squad in a Big 12 conference that would benefit from its departure, to the NIT Final Four and within a whisker of the NCAA Tournament.
Athletic directors take notice of that.
And if he does it again with a team that lost its top four scorers including a potential NBA lottery pick in Alec Burks, there won't be any stopping the deluge of schools knocking at CU's door for permission to talk to him in the summer of 2012. Boyle's name is no doubt already on the shortlist of any university with a coach on the hot seat or with a coach that might move on himself. He pledged loyalty to CU, but when the dollars get too big to pass up it might be difficult even for Boyle to say no.
While Texas A&M may have been able to offer more money, it appears that strictly dollars isn't the only motivating factor keeping Boyle at CU. The Buffs are set to open their new basketball practice facility in late summer. Boyle brought in a very good recruiting class for next season that includes four recruits two – 6-4 point guard Spencer Dinwiddie and 6-7, 230-pound power forward Damiene Cain, both from the LA area – who are ranked by Rivals.com as national top 150 prospects, oral commitments from juniors 6-9 Josh Scott of Lewis-Palmer and 6-7 Wesley Gordon of Colo Springs Sierra. And CU's move to the Pac 12 stands to raise the school's, and basketball program's, profile.
This year was just the beginning. Each successive year will be more difficult. Boyle helped CU realize it could prosper on the hardwood. But at the end of the day his success has done a lot more to help himself.

text: "Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones" will offer up a storyline centered around a Catholic based investigation. The Catholic faith and Mexican folklore are known to have various ghost stories from demons to horrifying witch tales, and hopefully Landon took cue from these stories instead of the plain boring story told throughout the first four films. This could be a new turn that could see various Paranormal Activity spin-off films telling one off stories.

Charitable Remainder Trusts
Boost Your Retirement Income While Making History
There are several ways to make a gift in trust to benefit you, a spouse, a family member or other beneficiary, and Colonial Williamsburg. To establish a charitable remainder trust you simply transfer property to a trustee, usually Colonial Williamsburg. The minimum gift for an individual charitable remainder trust is $100,000, either in cash, marketable securities, or real estate.
You may choose to receive a fixed dollar amount from the trust each year or you can choose a stated percentage of the fair market value of the trust assets as revalued each year. The latter option provides an opportunity for income to grow along with the value of the trust, although this can not be guaranteed. Upon the death of the last beneficiary, the remaining assets are distributed to Colonial Williamsburg.
For more information please call
the Planned Giving Office at 1-888-CWF-1776

Create Custom Photo Packages
I used to visit our local mall each year and paid an enormous amount of money to have photo packages printed of each of my four children. With multiple family members to deliver photos to, the packages really added up! Now I print my own photo packages at home. I select the sizes I want and print only the photos I need. (No more paying for photos I won't use!)
I've created two video tutorials to teach you how to create your own custom photo packages using Photoshop Elements 8 and Google's Picasa. Follow along with the tutorials and create your own package. You'll be on your way to printing photo sheets to give to family members or use on your next scrapbooking project.

I have two classes.
Amortization class has the following void method.
public void displayResults() { System.out.println("The loan amount is $" + loanAmt); System.out.println("The number of payments per year is " + pmtsPerYear); System.out.println("The number of years is " + numYears); System.out.println("The interest rate is " + annIntRate + "%"); System.out.println("The amount of the loan payments will be $" + this.getPmtAmt() + "."); }
The second class called AmortizationClient has my main method.
I'm trying to figure out how to get the output from the void method to write to a newly created file. I know how to use an object to invoke this void method....what I don't know is how to do it when using the PrintWriter Class. This is all being done within a switch statement.
case 8: System.out.println(); System.out.println("Enter the name of the file you wish to save the parameters to: "); fileName = keyboard.nextLine(); PrintWriter outputStream = null; try { outputStream = new PrintWriter(fileName); } catch(FileNotFoundException e) { System.out.println("File is not found."); System.exit(0); } outputStream.print(); outputStream.close(); System.out.println("The files were done."); break;

Rated 5 out of 5 by DebbsSeattle from Linen addict approves Purchased pumpkin in 70 x 108 Thanksgiving 2016. Washed before use, tumble dried low to about 80% dry, pressed with steam and spray starch. I would never NOT press any cloth. Pressed well, looked great, will acquire more as needed. Fabric is nice and weighty with nice drape. Hemstitching straight, mitered corners well done. Square corners...not all wonky.Date published: 2016-11-27Rated 1 out of 5 by RZH1324 from Very poor quality The "white" is not even close to white, the texture is like burlap, and it is see-through. I can't believe Williams Sonoma no longer carries an elegant linen tablecloth--this is not a tablecloth that can be used for a formal table setting. I compared the tablecloth to my old WS hemstitch napkins and they are completely different quality and colors.Date published: 2016-10-27Rated 2 out of 5 by J9LuLu from Not 126" Tablecloth The one I ordered was only 123" although the package said 126". Those 3" mattered!Date published: 2015-12-09Rated 5 out of 5 by Regina28 from Beautiful Quality I purchased two of these tablecloths (black and wine). The quality is beautiful. It's a casual yet elegant lightweight linen. The double hemstitch is a really nice detail. I'm sure it could be dry cleaned, however, I machine washed and dried on low. A light ironing with steam easily brought it back to a freshly pressed tablecloth.Date published: 2015-03-11Rated 5 out of 5 by Suha from Great tablecloth I ordered this in dark green (I think its called Pine) for Christmas holiday entertaining and it was so pretty. Great quality and it washes well.Date published: 2014-12-30Rated 1 out of 5 by fromengland from Not what I expected I purchased this tablecloth over the web. I was very disappointed with the quality. The fabric was so thin you could actually see the table underneath. I didn't even bother to washing it as I didn't know how awful it would look afterwards. Two years ago I purchased the runner and 8 napkins in exactly the same style and they were of very good quality and made in Russia. What a difference there was. I am sure that there is no quality control here. Very disappointed with Williams-SonomaDate published: 2014-12-08

|Safe Haskell
Netwire is a library for functional reactive programming, that is for time-varying values. It allows you to express various reactive systems elegantly and concisely by using an embedded domain-specific language. Examples of such systems include
- games,
- network applications with time-varying components,
- simulations,
- stateful web applications,
- widget-based user interfaces.
This library is based on an extension of the automaton arrow. The usage is explained in the following tutorial.
- module Control.Wire.Classes
- module Control.Wire.Prefab
- module Control.Wire.Session
- module Control.Wire.Trans
- module Control.Wire.Types
- module Control.Wire.Wire
- module Control.Applicative
- module Control.Arrow
- module Control.Category
- module Data.Proxy
- module System.Random
- class Profunctor h where
- class (Typeable e, Show e) => Exception e where
- toException :: e -> SomeException
- fromException :: SomeException -> Maybe e
- data SomeException where
- SomeException :: Exception e => e -> SomeException
Quickstart tutorial
This section is a quickstart tutorial for the experienced, impatient Haskell programmer.
The main concept used in Netwire is a family of wire categories:
data Wire e m a b
A value of type
Wire e m a b represents a function that takes as
- a time delta of type
Time(which is just
Double) that will be explained below,
- an input value of type
From these inputs it
- either produces an output value of type
bor inhibits with a value of type
- produces a new wire of type
Wire e m a b.
So you can think of
Wire as:
newtype Wire e m a b = Wire { stepWire :: Time -> a -> m (Either e b, Wire e m a b) }
To summarize a wire of type
Wire e m a b takes a value of type
a and
supposedly produces a value of type
b. It can be invoked multiple
times, where each invocation is called an instant and the wire can
behave differently at every instant. Additionally it can choose not to
produce anything, but instead inhibit with an inhibition exception of
e. This is Netwire's notion of a time-varying value.
Running wires
To actually invoke a wire you can use the
stepWire function
(simplified type):
stepWire :: (Monad m) => Wire e m a b -> Time -> a -> m (Either e b, Wire e m a b)
The idea is simple: You have an application loop that invokes a given
wire with a time delta, which is just the number of seconds passed since
the last instant and an application-specific input value. It then does
something with the output value (or inhibition value) and restarts the
loop with the new wire produced by the current wire. Such an
application loop based on
stepWire could look like this:
loop w' = do dt <- timeDeltaToLastInstant (mx, w) <- stepWire w' dt () case mx of Left ex -> printf "Inhibited: %s\n" (show ex) Right x -> printf "Produced: %s\n" (show x) loop w
Usually the time deltas are based on actual clock time. To simplify
invocation for this common case there is a set of convenience functions
stepSession for stepping that calculate the time deltas for you:
stepSession :: (Monad m) => Wire e m a b -> Session m -> a -> m (Either e b, Wire e m a b, Session m)
To construct the initial session value you can use
clockSession or one
of the other predefined intial session values:
clockSession :: (MonadIO m) => Session m
This simplifies the application loop, because you don't have to calculate the time deltas yourself:
loop w' session' = do (mx, w, session) <- stepSession w' session' () case mx of Left ex -> printf "Inhibited: %s\n" (show ex) Right x -> printf "Produced: %s\n" (show x) loop w session
For the common case where the wire's underlying monad is
Identity, but
the application monad is something else, there are convenience functions
stepSessionP and other
*P variants.
We haven't covered constructing wires yet. This is explained in the next section. But we now have everything necessary to write our first small application:
module Main where import Control.Wire import Prelude hiding ((.), id) import Text.Printf testApp :: Wire () Identity a Time testApp = timeFrom 10 main :: IO () main = loop testApp clockSession where loop w' session' = do (mx, w, session) <- stepSessionP w' session' () case mx of Left ex -> putStrLn ("Inhibited: " ++ show ex) Right x -> putStrLn ("Produced: " ++ show x) loop w session
When you run this program, it will continuously display a number of
seconds starting with 10. That's the
timeFrom 10 wire. Notice that
the Prelude module is imported with hidden
. and
id. Don't worry, the Control.Wire module reexports the
Control.Category module, which includes generalized version of both.
Constructing wires
A number of convenience types are defined in the Control.Wire.Types
module, in particular the
WireP type:
type WireP = Wire LastException Identity
Wires can be composed categorically, applicatively or by using wire
combinators. To feed the output of one wire
w1 into another wire
you just use categorical composition:
w2 . w1
For example the
noise wire generates random noise based on the given
random number generator. If its output type is
Double, it generates
noise 0 <= x t < 1. The
avg wire calculates the average value of its
input over the last given number of samples:
let myNoise = noise (mkStdGen 0) :: WireP a Double myAvg = avg 1000 in myAvg . myNoise
That wire should produce values near 0.5, the average noise value over
the last 1000 samples of random noise between 0 and 1. There is a bit
of cruft here to tell the type system that noise's output type is
Double. To make this easier you can simply use
outAs or
avg 1000 . outAs pDouble (noise (mkStdGen 0))
Wire type gives rise to a family of applicative functors. Using
applicative style you can apply a function to the output of a wire or
zip together the outputs of two wires (the Control.Applicative module
is reexported by this module):
timeString = fmap (printf "%8.2f") time noisyTime = liftA2 (+) time (noise (mkStdGen 0))
Constant wires can be produced using
pure. The following wire starts
at 0 and increases with a constant speed of 3:
integral_ 0 . pure 3
There are lots of convenience instances for wires. For example there
are instances for
Fractional and
IsString, so you
can actually just use regular arithmetical operators and numeric
literals. If you have enabled the
OverloadedStrings extension you can
also write string literals:
let n = noise (mkStdGen 0) in time + 3*n integral_ 0 . 3
There is a large library of predefined wires below the Control.Wire.Prefab tree.
Signal inhibition and events
As noted a few times wires can choose not to produce a value. In those
cases the wire inhibits the signal. This is where the
e type comes
into play. That type is called the inhibition monoid.
Signal inhibition is what makes Netwire different. The
Wire type is
Alternative functor, where the
empty wire always inhibits and
wires can be combined with the following semantics:
w1 <|> w2
w1 inhibits, then the combination
w1 <|> w2 acts like
w2. In
other words, the combination chooses the first wire that produces. If
both inhibit, then the combination inhibits.
Events are modelled around this. An event wire is usually a wire that
acts like the identity wire, but it may inhibit depending on whether an
event has occurred or not. One simple event wire is the
for wire:
for 3
This wire acts like the identity wire for three seconds and then stops producing forever. You can use it to construct a wire that produces yes for three seconds and then switches to no:
"yes" . for 3 <|> "no"
Another useful event wire is the
wackelkontakt wire (a Netwire running
gag; it's the German word for slack joint):
wackelkontakt 0.9
This wire acts like the identity wire most of the time (90%), but occasionally inhibits (10%). Using it you can produce a broken clock, which occasionally refuses to display the current time:
brokenClock = printf "%8.2f" <$> wackelkontakt 0.9 . time <|> "sorry, slack joint"
periodically wire produces once every given number of seconds.
The following wire produces once every two seconds:
periodically 2
There are various combinators for event wires in the
Control.Wire.Trans.Event module, most notably
hold and
Given an inhibiting wire the
hold combinator holds the last produced
value, so it turns instantaneous events into continuous ones:
secondClock = printf "%8.2f" <$> hold (periodically 1 . time)
This one displays the time in seconds and is only updated every second.
holdFor combinator allows you to limit the time the last output is
held for:
jumpyClock = printf "%8.2f" <$> holdFor 0.5 (periodically 1 . time) <|> "wait 500ms for the next second"
You find a library of predefined event wires in the Control.Wire.Prefab.Event module.
Custom wires
From time to time you will want to write your own wire on a lower level.
In this case there are a number of options. The simplest option is
mkPure :: (Time -> a -> (Either e b, Wire e m a b)) -> Wire e m a b
The type quite literally tells what this function does. It takes a
function and turns it into a wire quite straightforwardly. Another
option is to use
mkState, which is equivalent to
mkPure, but allows
you to express the wire as a local state transformer:
mkState :: s -> (Time -> (a, s) -> (Either e b, s)) -> Wire e m a b
The first argument is a starting state, the second is the state transformation function.

class (Typeable e, Show e) => Exception e where
Any type that you wish to throw or catch as an exception must be an
instance of the
Exception class. The simplest case is a new exception
type directly below the root:
data MyException = ThisException | ThatException deriving (Show, Typeable) instance Exception MyException
The default method definitions in the
Exception class do what we need
in this case. You can now throw and catch
ThisException and
ThatException as exceptions:
*Main> throw ThisException `catch` \e -> putStrLn ("Caught " ++ show (e :: MyException)) Caught ThisException
In more complicated examples, you may wish to define a whole hierarchy of exceptions:
--------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Make the root exception type for all the exceptions in a compiler data SomeCompilerException = forall e . Exception e => SomeCompilerException e deriving Typeable instance Show SomeCompilerException where show (SomeCompilerException e) = show e instance Exception SomeCompilerException compilerExceptionToException :: Exception e => e -> SomeException compilerExceptionToException = toException . SomeCompilerException compilerExceptionFromException :: Exception e => SomeException -> Maybe e compilerExceptionFromException x = do SomeCompilerException a <- fromException x cast a --------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Make a subhierarchy for exceptions in the frontend of the compiler data SomeFrontendException = forall e . Exception e => SomeFrontendException e deriving Typeable instance Show SomeFrontendException where show (SomeFrontendException e) = show e instance Exception SomeFrontendException where toException = compilerExceptionToException fromException = compilerExceptionFromException frontendExceptionToException :: Exception e => e -> SomeException frontendExceptionToException = toException . SomeFrontendException frontendExceptionFromException :: Exception e => SomeException -> Maybe e frontendExceptionFromException x = do SomeFrontendException a <- fromException x cast a --------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Make an exception type for a particular frontend compiler exception data MismatchedParentheses = MismatchedParentheses deriving (Typeable, Show) instance Exception MismatchedParentheses where toException = frontendExceptionToException fromException = frontendExceptionFromException
We can now catch a
MismatchedParentheses exception as
SomeFrontendException or
SomeCompilerException, but not other types, e.g.
*Main> throw MismatchedParentheses
catche -> putStrLn ("Caught " ++ show (e :: MismatchedParentheses)) Caught MismatchedParentheses *Main> throw MismatchedParentheses
catche -> putStrLn ("Caught " ++ show (e :: SomeFrontendException)) Caught MismatchedParentheses *Main> throw MismatchedParentheses
catche -> putStrLn ("Caught " ++ show (e :: SomeCompilerException)) Caught MismatchedParentheses *Main> throw MismatchedParentheses
catche -> putStrLn ("Caught " ++ show (e :: IOException)) *** Exception: MismatchedParentheses
toException :: e -> SomeException
fromException :: SomeException -> Maybe e
data SomeException where
SomeException type is the root of the exception type hierarchy.
When an exception of type
e is thrown, behind the scenes it is
encapsulated in a
|SomeException :: Exception e => e -> SomeException
