HIV-1 TRANSMISSION AMONG IDUs l Behavioral risk factors include: Syringe sharing Shooting gallery attendance Sharing drugs l Behavioral risks are driven by societal factors. Fear of arrest Aversion to withdrawal Scarcity of syringes
HISTORY OF SYRINGE EXCHANGE l Syringe exchange began in Holland in response to a hepatitis outbreak. l It is impossible to say when syringe exchange first began in the US. l The first openly operating initiative began in Tacoma in 1988.
WHY A SYRINGE EXCHANGE PROGRAM IN NEW HAVEN l In contrast to national data, 70% of AIDS cases in New Haven could be attributed to injection drug use.
ESTABLISHING THE SEP IN NEW HAVEN, CONNECTICUT l The city established a task force to seek solutions to the AIDS epidemic that lobbied for three years (1987-1990) to change the laws to start a SEP. By statute, customers could exchange no more than five syringes in a strict one-for-one fashion. A evaluation report had to be produced and issued within one year. l The SEP, operated by the city health department, opened on November 13, 1990.
EVALUATING THE NEW HAVEN SEP l Minimize reliance on self-reported data. l Investigate the link between the operations of the program and its effects. l Maintain the anonymity of the participants. l Provide a timely analysis that measures the program's effectiveness.
SYRINGE TRACKING AND TESTING l All outgoing syringes coded and exchanges recorded. l All returned syringes recorded in second database. l Nearly 50,000 syringes exchanged in first three years of the SEP. l Approximately one-tenth of all returned syringes tested for presence of blood from HIV-1 infected individual.
SEP FOUND TO PREVENT NEW HIV INFECTIONS l The testing data were used to generate two models to estimate the HIV incidence rate. l The first, an ecological model, assumed that in the absence of exchange previously used syringes will be used at random. l The second, a changepoint model, assumed that sequential testing of syringes returned by individuals yields reliable longitudinal data.
MODEL 1: TRANSMISSION OF SYRINGE-BORNE INFECTIONS x x Incidence is equal to the rate at which an uninfected injector uses a potentially infectious syringe without first disinfecting it times the rate which the exposure results in infection.
THE TWO MODELS INCIDENCE ESTIMATES BASED ON THE TWO MODELS l Using model 2, the most likely incidence rate was estimated at 1.6% per year, less than half the estimate from model 1.
EFFECT OF SEP EVALUATION ON POLICY IN CONNECTICUT l In 1992, the state government reviewed the findings and Removed the "demonstration" status. Increased syringe exchange limit from 5 to 10 syringes per visit. Added five new SEPs in other cities. Allowed syringes to be purchased from pharmacies. l In 1999, the state again increased the limit on syringes from 10 to 30 per visit.
EFFECT OF SEP EVALUATION ON POLICY IN OTHER STATES l Neighboring states of New York and Massachusetts legalize SEPs. l California legislation cites New Haven studies. l Only three states continue to keep SEPs illegal. HIV Prevalence among IDUs in New York City following SEP Legalization
EFFECT OF SEP EVALUATION ON FEDERAL GOVERNMENT POLICY l U. S. government reports repeatedly certify that New Haven evaluation clearly demonstrated that SEPs can reduce HIV transmission among IDUs. l Nevertheless, Congress refuses to change law that makes federal funding of SEPs illegal. l U. S. continues to seek international disapproval of syringe exchange.

The red "Jeb" logo, with an exclamation mark, is simpler than the Clinton campaign logo and others unveiled by the likes of Rand Paul, Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio, and according to the Bush camp, conveys consistency and enthusiasm. Neverthless, it has already got some pithy Twitter comments -- including that it looks like a flop Broadway musical or the old Yahoo logo. Comedian Rob Delaney even acted it out.

User Ratings & Opinions
|Nice design, but too tight
User: Aaron A, Feb 17, 2010
|This is actually a very attractive holster for the iphone, with leather and the metal detail on the front, but I had a heck of a time getting my phone in and out of the thing. I ultimately decided to go with a skin-type protector instead. It was very durable and protected the phone adequately, but getting it out of the case had me reaching for the WD-40.

Election Day!
Even though this election cycle was the worst thing ever and I can't wait for it to be over, I'm excited and happy that we have a woman on the ballot for the first time in US history!
And, I've moved from sadness mostly to some anger. And also today overall I feel good. I got some sleep, my appetite is back (hooray!), I'm starting to feel like I can handle my life again.
Sadly, though, not everyone in my broken family is there. The kids, of course, need so much right now. More than I can give them. My (soon to be ex) DH is still in the sadness phase of grief. He's getting treatment and wants more of a chance to show how he's changed, but I cannot do it. I wish I could. I really, really do. But I can't. And, like, me he wants to minimize the impact on the kids. And we are trying to figure out ways to do that.
At any rate, Happy Election Day! Go Vote! Even if it's not for a woman!

Paint the protrusions orange and shine lights on them – as subtle decorative elements.
Or, if the plate were the same width as the depth of the HSS, the slot edges could be beveled and the welds made as single-bevel-groove welds each side of the plate.
From: Ed Tornberg
I agree that has great weldability, but I'm trying to avoid the protrusions.
I must take this opportunity to thank you for your always thoughtful responses. The first time I emailed a question to the list some 7 years ago, I believe it was you who steered me to an invaluable reference for my Masters project. Plus I have an affinity for anyone named Nels (my brother shares that name).
Tornberg Consulting, LLC
-----Original Message-----
How about this? Use a thick plate a little wider than the depth of the tubes set into slots cut into the center of each tube far enough to develop the design moment using fillet welds, four fillet welds per tube.
To develop the design moment in a 4x4x3/8 tube, I used a ¾" plate, 5" wide, set into 7" long slots, welded with 5/16" fillets to each tube.
From: Ed
Tornberg [mailto:ed(--nospam--at)tornbergconsulting.com]
For a tube to tube moment connection, I'm used to showing the tubes with miter cuts, then calling out full penetration weld all round.
The contractor wants to keep the ends square, butt them, cap the open end, and call it good. Is that okay? I suppose if the welds are still accomplished properly it would work. In fact, the inside corner might be easier this way.
Forgive me, I'm not a detailer and don't have an HSS connections manual.

Jason Aldean's 'Any Ol' Barstool' Video Tugs on the Emotions [Watch]
Jason Aldean's video for his new single, "Any Ol' Barstool," strikes a chord as it paints the picture of a man struggling through a breakup.
Jason Aldean's video for his new single, "Any Ol' Barstool," strikes a chord as it paints the picture of a man struggling through a breakup.
The Boot rounds up the best Jason Aldean songs.
Jason Aldean's Wikipedia page is full of information, but like so many pages on the user-updated website, there is a good mix of facts, almost fact and flat-out fiction. The "Any Ol' Barstool" singer sat down to straighten out some of the details, sharing background info on his childhood, his parents' divorce and what truly happens in that barn on his farm.
On Feb. 28, 1977, Jason Aldean was born in Macon, Ga.
BBR Music Group's showcase at the Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville Wednesday night (Feb. 22) featured plenty of past hits, as well as new singles that will become part of the soundtrack for the summer of 2017 and beyond.
Jason Aldean and his wife, Brittany, sat down to answer some questions from fans in a video she posted to her YouTube page, and no topics were off limits.
A readers' poll to determine if Jason Aldean looks better with or without his cowboy hat.
Jason Aldean and Jon Pardi must share a stylist. The two country stars were approximately 2,100 miles apart on Super Bowl Sunday, but both still managed to rock the same gray T-shirt at their Super Bowl viewing parties.
Jason Aldean has announced the cities for a massive 2017 tour. The country superstar will hit the road for his They Don't Know Tour on April 27 and visit more than 30 cities throughout North America.
Jason Aldean is the latest country musician to be honored at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville.

Book one of the Twisted Curse Series
A modern day twist of what really happened between Little Red Riding Hood, her Grandmother, and the Wolf.
What if the story was all wrong?
What if a Curse brought them together?
"What are you?!" I shrieked. My mind trying to figure out ways to escape. He leaned in and whispered in my ear, which caused shivers to roll down my spine.
"I'm your big bad wolf, and your my little red" he said smirking.

She looks like she's in her 70s but if your mom is in her 40s your grandmother would be in her 70s and if this is your great grandmother she would be nearing 100.

A big boy, the British Blaze (pounds 35, top right), about 2ft tall and 8 inches across. A slow starter, it burps out gold sparks before summoning the serious stuff from the pit of its stomach and belching out patriotic, burning globules of red, white and blue about 20ft into the air. Be careful on a dry night: it showers the garden with stubborn burning embers. Ooh/ah factor: 7/10.
A bit confusing, the Six Point Star Fountain (pounds 11, above): should it spin (you nail it to a post), or should it stay put and spew jets of fire. You expect the first, get the second: it whooshes, but frankly the earth doesn't move. Ooh/ah: 4/10
The Duplex Bomber (pounds 18, far right) was the smaller of the two big rockets we tested, but big enough to warrant a bit more staying power than the wham-bam-whoosh that splattered the sky all-too briefly with red and gold. The Palm Tree rocket (near right) gives you more burst for your money (as well it might at pounds 27), filling the sky with red and green starburst. Ooh/ah: 6/10 and 8/10
You've got a lot to live up to when you're a Catherine Wheel masquerading as a Turbo-jet Rotating with Dynamic Force (pounds 11, above). Shoots out powerful showers of red and gold while its central disc picks up speed and burns white then gold and appears to turn into a circular saw cutting madly though the air. Not at all bad. Ooh/ah: 6/10.
The Astroburst (pounds 15, right) is deceptively small, a short squat tube, but when it says "bury two thirds into the ground" you know it packs a punch. It lulls you with some tame whooshing and sparking before delivering a heart-stopping haymaker with a thunderclap of an explosion. Ooh/ah: 8/10Reuse content

The Gershwins' Porgy and Bess is coming to a town near you on its North American National Tour in a stunning and stirring new staging, featuring such legendary songs as "Summertime," "It Ain't Necessarily So," and "I Got Plenty of Nothing."
The classic story by DuBose and Dorothy Heyward is set in Charleston's fabled Catfish Row, where the beautiful Bess struggles to break free from her scandalous past, and the only one who can rescue her is the crippled but courageous Porgy. Threatened by her formidable former lover Crown, and the seductive enticements of the colorful troublemaker Sporting Life, Porgy and Bess' relationship evolves into a deep romance that triumphs as one of theater's most exhilarating love stories.
Following its sold-out world premiere engagement at Boston's American Repertory Theater and Tony-Award winning run on Broadway, one of Broadway's most accomplished creative teams, led by Tony Award-winning director DIANE PAULUS (Pippin), Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright SUZAN-LORI PARKS (Topdog/Underdog), and two-time Obie Award-winning composer DIEDRE L. MURRAY (Running Man), now brings George and Ira Gershwin's legendary masterwork to the stage near you!

Sorry, no etymologies found.
Having camera-tracked and camera-mapped my background footage, I separated the architeuthis sylvaticus scene into layers to be modified and recombined through the node compositor for example, I want to darken the background and give it a cold, bluish tint while keeping the luminous yellow eyes.
In fact, the largest of all squid, the architeuthis, this is an animal pushing 50, 60 feet in length, that's what these whales are hunting.
This is a 1:1 model of mesonychoteuthis AKA the colossal squid, which is not to be confused with the giant squid (architeuthis) or the jumbo squid (humboldt squid).

DFM Questions
1. When I try to launch the command line SMARTS tool dmctl and attach to DFM it prompts me for a DFM user id and password. What is it looking for here ?
2. In LMS 3.0.1 and whatever DFM version the corresponds to that, is there a way now to disable IPstatus polling and events on interfaces and have DFM only use SNMP polling for IFDown events ? An earlier posts here mentioned there was a way to do this.
3. The SMARTS trap notifier adapter has artibutes you can specify like smoothing and delay interval that I like to use to have DFM send traps to CIC. Can I simply start the trap notifier script with a modified conf file and have it send my traps out to CIC and bypass the DFM Gui set for notifications entirely ?
You cannot script or configure NOSServer to do smoothing.
You can filter on Reachability events if you want to notify on when a device becomes unreachable.

Hot Potato, Cold Potato
"I've always been thrilled by the sensation of having two different temperatures on the palate at one time," Achatz says. Here, he contrasts a creamy, chilled potato soup with hot potato balls.
More Potato Recipes
Recipe from Food & Wine Best New Chefs All-Star Cookbook
- Total Time:
- Servings: 8
- Time(Other): plus 3 hr chilling
- 1 large Yukon Gold potato (about 8 ounces), peeled and cut into 1⁄2-inch dice
- 1/4 cup black truffle juice (see Note)
- 1⁄2 cup plus 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- Kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon white truffle oil
- 1 pound unsalted butter, plus 1⁄2 tablespoon cold unsalted butter cut into 8 very small cubes and frozen
- 1 medium Yukon Gold potato (about 6 ounces), scrubbed and scooped into 8 balls with a 1⁄2-inch melon baller
- 1⁄2 ounce Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, cut into 8 very small pieces
- 2 chives, cut into eight 1-inch lengths
- 8 thin slices of fresh black truffle (optional)
- Maldon salt
How to make this recipe
make the soup
In a small saucepan, combine the diced potato with the truffle juice and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer over low heat until the potato is tender, about 20 minutes. Add the cream and return to a simmer.
Transfer the potato mixture to a blender. Add 3⁄4 teaspoon of salt and 1/3 cup of water and puree until smooth. With the machine on, drizzle in the truffle oil until incorporated. Season with salt. Strain the soup through a fine sieve into a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, about 3 hours.
prepare the garnishes
In a medium saucepan, melt the pound of butter. Simmer gently over low heat until foam rises to the surface, about 3 minutes. Using a spoon, skim the foam off the surface. Slowly pour the butter through a cheesecloth-lined sieve into a medium bowl, stopping before you reach the milky solids at the bottom of the saucepan; wipe out the pan. Return the clarified butter to the saucepan and add the potato balls. Bring to a slow simmer over moderately low heat and cook the potato balls until they are tender, about 15 minutes. Keep the potato balls in the butter.
Pour the chilled soup into 8 small bowls or shot glasses. Garnish each soup with 1 piece of cheese, frozen butter and chive, plus a hot potato ball and a truffle slice. Sprinkle with Maldon salt and serve. Alternatively, skewer 1 piece of cheese, frozen butter and chive and a hot potato ball onto each of 8 mini skewers, drape with a truffle slice, sprinkle with Maldon salt and serve.
Make Ahead
The potato soup can be refrigerated for up to 2 days.
Black truffle juice is available at Italian specialty stores and online at amazon.com.

Theravance wins FDA OK for MRSA superbug drug
Theravance Inc. and partner Astellas Pharma won FDA approval for their superbug-fighting drug telavancin, which will bring the South San Francisco company a $20 million milestone payment.
The drug will hit the market in the fourth quarter as a treatment for adults with complicated skin and skin structure infections caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus — commonly known as the superbug MRSA — and other Gram-positive bacteria.
The once-a-day injectable drug — the first product 12-year-old, 200-employee Theravance (NASDAQ: THRX) has taken from development through approval — will be marketed for three years with Japan-based Astellas' U.S. unit under the brand name Vibativ.
"This is a significant event that marks the first approved indication for Vibativ and validates Theravance's strategies in drug discovery and development," CEO Rick Winningham said in a press release.
Astellas will pay $20 million to Theravance in connection with the approval, part of that payment coming after Theravance delivers enough inventory to Astellas for six months of Vibativ sales in the United States. Winningham would not say how much Vibativ will cost, but CFO Mike Aguilar told analysts in a conference call Monday that other drugs targeting MRSA cost $150 to $200 a day.
The Food and Drug Administration's approval of the drug, with side effects on the kidney and a "black box" warning for pregnant women, caps a three-year journey through the approval process for telavancin. The drug is the first approved specifically to target MRSA, which currently is treated largely with the antibiotic vancomycin, since at least the mid-1990s.
The superbug has become increasingly resistant to generic vancomycin. At the same time, MRSA has spread from hospitals to locker rooms and other general community settings, where the skin infections largely occur.
That has forced the FDA to look more closely at the effectiveness and side effects of drugs targeting MRSA and caused the agency to ask Theravance for more data, even after an advisory committee late last year signed off on telavancin.
"We believe that Vibativ will become an important medicine addressing the urgen medical need for new antibiotics to treat Gram-positive infections caused by MRSA," Winningham said in the release.
FDA approval bodes well for Theravance as it faces a November approval date for telavancin's use against hospital-acquired pneumonia. Aguilar said Monday that the FDA had not yet scheduled the drug for consideration by an advisory panel, so the November date was "not likely." Approval for the hospital-acquired pneumonia indication would trigger a $10 million payment from Astellas.
Theravance, whose chairman is former Merck & Co. CEO Roy Vagelos, spent more than $150 million on telavancin in Phase III trials. That typically is the most expensive stage of drug development.

Owners subscribe with us, build their ad directly onto our platform using our self-service system and can cancel at any time, so you only use the program for the amount of time you need it.

Program Reviews
The purpose of the seven-year review of all undergraduate and graduate programs in a department/school is to engage faculty in a reflective process of thoughtful study and evaluation of program quality and alignment to East Carolina University's values, mission, and commitments in support of our students and the region. Program review is an integral part of the university's ongoing assessment and strategic planning processes designed to enhance the quality of all educational programs. Programs that are periodically reviewed by an external accrediting body are not part of the formal APR process described here. Rather, reports from these external accreditations satisfy program review reporting requirements and are archived by the SACSCOC liaison in Institutional Planning, Assessment, and Research (IPAR).
The review of programs without specialized accreditation is intended to help faculty and administrators gain an understanding of the following:
- Purpose and outcomes for each degree and certificate program being reviewed;
- Each program's effectiveness in achieving its purpose and outcomes, along with overall quality;
- The faculty's vision for each program and improvement actions taken as a result of institutional and assessment data;and
- Future programmatic improvements to the curriculum, pedagogy, and/or operational functions of the department.
Academic program review at ECU consists of two interrelated activities: on-site program review which occurs approximately every seven years for each program, and student learning outcomes assessment which is conducted on an ongoing basis. These two forms of reviews are interrelated in three ways: (1) analysis of what has been learned about program quality through assessment of student learning outcomes is an integral part of the seven-year review;(2) analysis of programmatic and operational outcomes beyond student learning provides the program an opportunity to examine and align its actions with priorities and strategic initiatives of the university and college;and (3) in both reviews, faculty report progress in implementing the action plan from the previous review and develop a new action plan.

- 1 (15 oz.) can black or pinto beans
- 1 avocado
- 1 large zucchini
- 2 medium carrots
- 2 cups romaine lettuce, shredded
- ½ cup salsa
- 1 tbsp. olive oil
- Start cooking rice according to package directions.
- While rice is cooking, chop vegetables and prepare lettuce and avocado.

Weather impacts rail volumes for week ending February 5, says AAR
Railroad traffic for the week ending February 5 was mixed due to harsh weather conditions impacting certain parts of the country, according to data released by the Association of American Railroads (AAR).
in the NewsMajor changes in air cargo freighter market driven by e-commerce, reports consultancy Maersk Line's acquisition of Hamburg Süd gets sales and purchase agreement approval AAR reports mixed carload and intermodal volumes for week ending April 22 BTS reports February gain in U.S.-NAFTA trade U.S. ports may face difficult financing decisions, says Fitch Ratings More News
Railroad traffic for the week ending February 5 was mixed due to harsh weather conditions impacting certain parts of the country, according to data released by the Association of American Railroads (AAR).
Carload volume at 267,682 was flat year-over-year and behind the week ending January 29 which hit 291,147 and the week ending January 22 at 282,837. The AAR said that carload volume was up 5.8 percent in the East and down 3.6 percent out West.
Intermodal volumes for the week ending February 5 tallied 198,249 for a 1.5 percent annual decline. It was also behind the weeks of January 29 and January 22 at 222,742 trailers and containers and ahead of the week ending January 22 at 180,888 trailers and containers.
As LM has reported, while volumes are up annually and at recent levels on a sequential basis, it appears the annual comparisons for railroad data will be less impressive than they were in 2010, considering 2010 comparisons were up against a difficult 2009.
But railroad volume appear to be picking up where 2010 left off, and prospects for 2011 look very encouraging, especially in light of recent fourth-quarter and full-year earnings results from multiple Class I carriers, which pointed to continued pricing and volume increases.
Of the 20 commodity groups the AAR tracks, 8 saw annual growth for the week ending February 5, with metallic ores up 33.5 percent and chemicals up 4.1 percent.
Estimated ton-miles were 30.3 billion for a 1.3 percent annual increase, and on a year-to-date basis, the 158.5 billion ton-miles recorded are up 7.0 percent.
"On a year-to-date basis, carloads are 6.4% higher vs. last year and intermodal units are 5.7% higher," forward wrote Avondale Partners analyst Donald Broughton in a research note. "Coal continues to progress, as normalized utility coal stockpiles, along with improving trends for domestic met coal and export coal should yield weekly coal volumes in the 150-160k range. When combined with the steady rise in intermodal units and the strong volumes seen in chemical and metals, as well as the growing boost from agricultural volumes, we anticipate strong overall volumes moving."

Saussy Burbank - February 2012 Builder of the Month
Thursday, February 2, 2012
By Heather Campbell
Customer Relations Coordinator
Saussy Burbank's own Michele Upchurch offered great insight into the builder which, formerly under the name McNeill Burbank, has been building new homes in the Triangle since 1992. "We have built close to 1,000 homes here, winning numerous awards for quality, craftsmanship and style" she said, adding "Our unique designs borrow architecturally from the past, blending into a timeless look for today, tomorrow and always".
"Saussy Burbank understands that for a home to last for generations, cost per square foot must not be the driving factor. We don't build the biggest homes or the least expensive, we build quality homes with great attention to detail that create neighborhoods and are built to last."
Being a builder in Briar Chapel's green-built community, Saussy Burbank is NAHB Green and Energy Star Certified. They incorporate many practices, which Michele noted can add up to big savings. High-efficiency HVAC systems and water heaters, energy saving insulation and air-sealing packages, high-performance low E windows, Energy Star appliances are all among Saussy Burbank's green-building standards … and that's only the beginning.
"Saussy Burbank is passionate about the attention to detail and in keeping the authenticity of the style and design of each and every home we build", Michele told me. "We are also committed to true customer satisfaction, from your first model home visit to long after you have closed on your new home."

Bruder SCANIA R-Series Garbage Truck. Premium quality down to the finest detail - thats the motto of the SCANIA R-series. The functionality, finish and design of this drivers cab speak for themselves. So its no surprise that this vehicle is becoming the main feature of BRUDER Profi series trucks. The drivers cab - built, as usual, with great attention to detail - has a windscreen made from unbreakable polycarbonate and can be used with the Light and Sound Module (art.no. 02801) that is available for many articles. The mirrors of the SCANIA trucks can be folded in and the doors can be opened. The complete loading and unloading process of the garbage truck is controlled by a unique turning wheel mechanism where two bins can be emptied at the same time. The same procedure is also possible for the refuse container due to the flexible support console. The process: the waste bins are pushed into the support console, the waste is then emptied into the trough by the lifting mechanism. Whilst the wheel is being turned, the waste is pulled into the crushing mechanism, is compressed and then transported into the waste pit. This process is clearly shown through an inspection window. The upper handle mounted on the refuse bunker is used for tipping out the refuse. Turning this handle moves the refuse backwards by means of discharge slides past the raised loading and unloading unit and transports it to the outside. Two small enclosed refuse bins and profiled tyres complete the picture.

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has conveyed to BJP leaders that the issues related to enclaves, adversely possessed land and un-demarcated border as well as the interim agreement for sharing of water of river Teesta would come up during his visit to Bangladesh next week.
Singh is understood to have indicated to LK Advani, Sushma Swaraj and Arun Jaitley about the pacts that India and Bangladesh would sign.
The PM did not indicate any move to reach a "swap" deal during his visit though the issue could come up. National security adviser Shivshankar Menon, who was present at their meeting held on Friday, gave details of the enclaves where people were living.
The PM indicated to the BJP leaders that the people in these enclaves in both countries did not want to be displaced.
Advani told HT that the BJP backed the government's move to strengthen ties with Bangladesh but he wanted "the issue of continuous illegal migration" from that country stopped.
The first indication of possibility of an exchange of enclaves was given by Assam chief minister Tarun Gogoi.
Gogoi had indicated India might reach an agreement with Bangladesh to exchange land that were in adverse possession with the two nations.
