SimBiology lets you represent a model of a biological or a pharmacological mechanism just as you would draw it on a piece of paper. It includes a block diagram editor that lets you graphically build models by dragging and connecting blocks. You can also programmatically build and manage models using MATLAB functions.
In addition to the environment for building models, SimBiology includes a library of standard PK models. Or, you can import models from a Systems Biology Markup Language (SBML) file.
SimBiology provides three basic blocks to build your models:
SimBiology uses a reaction-network modeling approach that lets you model a variety of dynamic biological systems such as signaling pathways, metabolic networks, quantitative systems pharmacology, and the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics of drugs. Each reaction in the model defines the structure and the rate of the individual interaction. SimBiology uses mass-balance principles to automatically translate this network representation of the model into a set of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) that mathematically describe the dynamics of your system.
The equation view displays the underlying ODEs defining the model.
SimBiology provides two additional modeling constructs for specifying model dynamics:
Taken together, model expressions—that is, reactions, rules, and events—fully describe the mathematics of the model.
Model variants let you store a set of parameter values or initial conditions that are different from the base model configuration. Using variants, you can easily simulate alternate scenarios and what-if hypotheses without creating multiple copies of the model. For example, you can use model variants to specify parameter values for different cell lines, drug candidates, or animal species.
SimBiology allows you to define and evaluate bolus and infusion dosing strategies. You can link the dose to the appropriate species in the model to stipulate the administration route (intravenous, subcutaneous, oral, or topical). You can test hybrid dosing strategies by including multiple dosing schedules during model evaluation. Similarly, you can assess the benefit of combination therapies and determine the optimal dosing strategy by combining dosing schedules targeting different model species.
You can simulate the dynamic behavior of your model using a variety of deterministic and stochastic solvers. Simulations can be performed in the SimBiology app or programmatically using MATLAB functions. Simulations return time-state data for all dynamic model quantities. You can visualize the results using built-in plots, or export the data to MATLAB for further analyses and visualization.
Prior to simulation, SimBiology checks the validity of the model structure and expressions, verifies that the model can be simulated, and reports the sources and potential causes of errors. You can use this verification report to locate and fix problems with model implementation.
SimBiology provides several deterministic solvers, including MATLAB ODE solvers and the CVODE solver from the SUNDIALS suite. SimBiology also provides three stochastic solvers: stochastic simulation algorithm (SSA), explicit tau-leaping, and implicit tau-leaping.
The ODE solvers can simulate stiff systems and models incorporating discontinuities, such as events and doses. You can control simulation settings, including stop time, sampling times, tolerances, and states to be logged.
SimBiology provides unit conversion tools to support flexibility in your choice of units. You can choose the units that are most appropriate for each model quantity. For example, you could specify the dose amount in milligrams, drug concentration in nanograms/milliliters, and plasma volume in liters. Unit conversion automatically converts all quantities in the model and data to a consistent unit system during model evaluation.
SimBiology also includes a dimensional analysis tool that automatically checks model expressions for dimensional consistency during the verification step.
You can accelerate simulation by converting models to compiled C code. Compiling a model can significantly improve computational performance and is particularly useful when working with large models or running tasks such as Monte Carlo simulations and parameter estimation that involve simulating the model numerous times.
To further accelerate tasks that require many simulations, such as parameter sweeps and Monte Carlo simulations, you can use Parallel Computing Toolbox™ to distribute your simulations across multiple cores or a cluster of computers.
SimBiology lets you estimate model parameters by fitting the model to experimental time-course data, using either nonlinear regression or nonlinear mixed-effects (NLME) techniques.
SimBiology provides nonlinear regression methods to fit data for a single individual or a population. With population data, you can either fit each group independently to generate group-specific estimates or simultaneously fit all groups (pooled approach) to estimate a single set of values.
You can perform nonlinear regression using optimization algorithms from Statistics and Machine Learning Toolbox™, Optimization Toolbox™, and Global Optimization Toolbox, including simplex search, interior-point, pattern search, genetic algorithm, and particle swarm optimization. By default, SimBiology performs an ordinary least-squares regression. You can perform a weighted least-squares regression by specifying either a weights vector or a weighting function of observed or predicted responses.
SimBiology provides nonlinear mixed-effects (NLME) methods to simultaneously fit population data. The following NLME algorithms are included:
SimBiology provides standard goodness-of-fit statistics and diagnostic plots that can be used to determine the quality of a fit and guide model selection. Goodness-of-fit statistics include:
You can use SimBiology to perform sensitivity analysis, parameter sweeps, and Monte Carlo simulations to investigate the influence of model parameters and initial conditions on model behavior. You can visualize the change in model dynamics when a parameter or initial condition is varied over a prespecified range. Alternatively, you can sample values from a distribution to incorporate a known uncertainty in parameter values into model evaluation. SimBiology also provides a forward sensitivity analysis task to calculate local, time-dependent sensitivities to parameter values and initial conditions.
SimBiology provides exploration tools that let you vary parameter values, initial conditions, and dose schedules with sliders. The interactive tools enable you to quickly iterate through values without modifying the base model. When you move a slider, you can instantaneously visualize the outcome of that change on the task results.
The exploration section for each task can be independently configured to ask different questions. For example, you could configure one task to examine the effect of binding and unbinding constants on fractional receptor occupancy, and you could set up another task for the same model to iterate through dose amounts and intervals to achieve a target exposure level.
SimBiology provides MATLAB functions to programmatically simulate and analyze your models. These programmatic tools enable you to develop custom analyses, automate workflows, and integrate SimBiology models into other MATLAB applications. For example, you could use constrained optimization algorithms from Optimization Toolbox and Global Optimization Toolbox to identify dosing strategies that maximize tumor suppression while satisfying constraints imposed by safety considerations.
You can deploy SimBiology models as a part of a standalone application or a software component using MATLAB Compiler™ and other application deployment products. The user of the deployed model can simulate the model, alter model quantities and dosing values, and log and visualize simulation results. Deploying models in this way lets you:

Dr. Robert A. Gange
An important perceptual difference between Tracy Walters and Dr. Patterson appears to lie in the relationship, if any, between science and the supernatural. Accordingly, I offer the following remarks as context for the particular points discussed below.
Dr. Gange received his Ph.D. in 1978 for extensive research on the application of cryophysics to information systems. He has been on staff for over 25 years at the David Sarnoff Research Center in princeton, New Jersey. In the course of his scientific career, he has received nine corporate awards and has been honored seven times by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. More recently, he is the author of the book, Origins and Destiny, published in 1986 by Word books, Waco, Texas. In this article, Dr. Gange addresses some of the points raised by John Patterson and Tracy Walters in the last issue of Origins Research.

The trauma of the 2008-9 financial crisis culminated in the failure of Lehman Brothers, global recession, currency wars, Occupy Wall Street, the European sovereign debt crisis and unorthodox central bank policies that have led, as Keynes once predicted, to the euthanasia of creditors. In retrospect, it is not difficult to pinpoint the myriad forces that led global finance to the brink of systemic failure in 2008. These ranged from post Glass Steagall's excessive deregulation, the Greenspan Fed's recurrent tolerance of asset bubbles, the malign ostensibly innovative, Frankensteins in the credit markets (CDO squared, shadow banking SPV's), the political power of megabank CEO's in Capitol Hill, Westminster (as well as Reich Chancellery, the Elysee Palace and the Kremlin!), securitization gone berserk in Wall Street and the City of London, the borrowing binges in Club Med and frenzied property speculation.

I don't see what it would get us in so two weeks the president says we're cutting off all ties with the with the Egyptian government and military ... withdrawing all a ... my question is that what ... what happened how Senator Rand Paul for example to set love when the Egyptian people see the U S military weapons used in the streets against them and doesn't get home of very good impressions the United States how would you respond ... well I mean ... look ... it's not the United States is using those weapons it's the Egyptian military ... this is a fight between right now ... the fight for survival frankly between the military government the army ... and the Muslim Brotherhood one ... side or the other is going to win ... I'm ... the and if we decide whether to cut off military government ... on what ... you are we going to accomplish our hands for example what are those of a ... democracy in Egypt is the Muslim Brotherhood to ... impose a democracy if they prevail ... we saw when they were in government they were ... in fact they were trying to consolidate power ... for themselves so there's not ... any clear great Democrats not nineteen eighty nine invasion ... democracy protesters versus economists government ... there are competing ... of players here and I mean none of which are really stay for a ... while we are curtailing some eight ... percent Allstate partly because towards training injection teachers and ... hospital administrator see those sorts of people ... is that something is simple ...

On Comprehending the Incomprehensible
The mystery of life and the secret of life is that it's up against something which can be incomprehensible. And the way out of it is to appreciate the fact that life too can still be alive and not comprehend. You could simply change your mind and put yourself in that state and you'd duplicate this stuff utterly. —L. Ron Hubbard
In a lecture that uniquely correlates major Scientology breakthroughs, Mr. Hubbard relates an individual's level of ARC to what he calls "the chart of dwindling comprehension," concurrently identified as the Chart of Human Evaluation. As he traces how a being's descent from knowingness to incomprehension on the Chart parallels the Tone Scale, he details the consequences when vibrant, understanding life attempts to communicate with—and to comprehend—dead, inanimate matter. Here is the fate that overtakes such people as the nuclear physicist, who, probing endlessly for a cause-point amidst atoms and electrons, sinks to an incomprehension so deep he can assign MEST seniority over life.
Before Scientology, this dwindling spiral was irreversible. But "wonder of wonders," as Mr. Hubbard puts it: even after an individual has become wholly dependent on MEST, a process exists to restore self-determinism. Here, then, are both the mechanics of entrapment and a comprehensive account of the whys and wherefores behind the L. Ron Hubbard's technology that marks the road out.

David Hall: Like the 1919 and 1919-S, the 1919-D is rare in all circulated grades and very rare in high grades. It is even rarer still in mint state and in Gem condition it is the rarest of all Walking Liberty half dollars. There are just a dozen or so MS65 examples known and anything higher than MS65 is almost unknown. This is a rare coin in all grades and a major 20th century condition rarity in Gem condition.
Strike is a major problem with this issue. Most 1919-D half dollars are very weakly struck thru the central devices, with little if any hand detail on the obverse, and often with weak eagle's breast feathers on the reverse. The lack of striking detail is the major reason Gems are so rare (couple with the overall rarity of the issue in mint state.) Luster is also often a problem and there are some mint state examples with unattractive toning. In short, finding a pleasing mint state example of this issue is very difficult.

Round-table 3: Drifting the RulesPosted in Discussions, Non-Actual Play, Round Table, RPG Only on March 22nd, 2011 by Kevin Weiser
Kevin sits down with Ryan Macklin, John Wick, and Eddy Webb to discuss the pros and cons of drifting the rules in RPG's. It's a good discussion, and fair warning, the last 10 minutes or so are actually a tangent on the realities of being an internet microcelebrity, and how people act vastly differently to said celebrities when they meet them in person rather than how they talk about them on internet forums. Still a pretty interesting conversation, but if you're here just to hear about drifting, you might wanna skip the last 10 minutes.

* HSI -0.4 pct, H-shares -0.5 pct, CSI300 +0.5 pct
* Beta plays down as twin China PMI diverges again
* China agricultural stocks lifted by policy signals
* Wynn Macau hit by parent's earnings disappointment
By Clement Tan
HONG KONG, Feb 1 (Reuters) - Hong Kong shares extended a
retreat from a 21-month high on Friday, dragged down by
growth-sensitive stocks after an official survey of
manufacturing activity in China disappointed expectations.
The onshore Chinese market recovered from early losses in
choppy trading, as agricultural-related sectors were bolstered
by a series of policy announcements, including rural land
reforms to promote large-scale commercial farming.
The CSI300 of the top Shanghai and Shenzhen
A-share listings went into the midday trading break up 0.5
percent, while the Shanghai Composite Index was flat.
For the week, they are up 5 percent and 4.1 percent
The China Enterprises Index of the top Chinese
listings in Hong Kong fell 0.5 percent, while the Hang Seng
Index was down 0.4 percent at 23,624.5, slipping further
from Wednesday's 21-month closing high. They remained up 0.6
percent and 0.2 percent, respectively, on the week.
Both markets had started the day weaker after the official
purchasing managers index (PMI) eased to 50.4 for January, below
December's 50.6 reading and below forecasts for a nine-month
high of 50.9. But, another private survey released by HSBC
showed growth quickening to a two-year high in January.
But both surveys showed factory output in the world's
second-largest economy rose in January, though the starkly
different speeds suggest a patchy revival in activity.
"Data this month may have been skewed by some methodology
issues, but if you look at the HSBC reading, which is more
skewed to smaller enterprises, it actually suggests the uptrend
is intact," said Hong Hao, chief strategist at Bank of
Communication International Securities.
"From my communication with fund managers, the greater
dilemma is deciding how to deploy the increasing amount of money
coming their way after such a big run up," Hong said. "That is
raising concern that we are due a correction soon."
On Friday, highly growth-sensitive sectors such as materials
and shipping weakened. Steel conglomerate Citic Pacific
shed 1.6 percent in Hong Kong, while Aluminum
Corporation of China (Chalco) lost 1.3
percent in Hong Kong and 1.4 percent in Shanghai.
China property stocks were mixed, with some falling despite
a report in the official China Securities Journal newspaper that
a pilot programme to implement a property tax in Beijing has
been postponed.
China Vanke rose 0.6 percent in Shenzhen, but
its smaller rival Poly Real Estate slipped 0.5
percent in Shanghai. China Overseas Land shed 2.9
percent in Hong Kong.
Wynn Macau fell 2.3 percent after its parent group
Wynn Resorts Ltd WYNN.O posted on Thursday underwhelming
quarterly earnings that were blamed on its declining share of
the Macau gaming market.
Most of its Macau gaming sector rivals were broadly higher
ahead of monthly gaming revenue data. Sands China was
up 0.5 percent, while SJM Holdings was up 2.1 percent.
Data released at the midday trading break showed Macau
gambling revenue rising 7.3 percent in January from a year
before, weaker than a 10-12 percent growth consensus forecast.
Strength in agricultural-related plays were lifted by
Beijing's focus on modernizing the sector in its "number one
document" for 2013. The "number one document" is a key indicator
of policy priorities and has focused on rural matters every year
since 2003.
For 2013, Beijing said it would grant more subsidies to
large-scale landholders, family farms and rural cooperatives as
it tries to provide more incentives to bring economies of scale
to the fragmented countryside.
Heilongjiang Agriculture rose 2.3 percent in
Shanghai, with a sub-index of agriculture stocks listed in
Shanghai and Shenzhen outperforming the broader
A-share market, up 1.2 percent.

Lawn mower accident injures yard worker
An early afternoon riding lawn mower accident sent a Newton man to the hospital Thursday. The accident happened on the corner of Boston Road and N.C. 10.
Angie Queen, a nearby neighbor, identified the man on the mower as Pete Hollar.
"When I came out and looked on top of it, I thought the lawn mower was on top of him," Hollar said. "But they said he jumped clear."
Master Police Officer Brett Williams, of the Newton Police Department, said Holler and his lawn mower fell into the Department of Transportation's hole. One of the tires on the mower got too close to the hole.

Like many government social service agencies, the Illinois Department of Human Services was having trouble managing paper-based forms. But the answer DHS found started with the decision not to digitize its archives. Instead, it decided to digitize only new eligibility forms, leaving the archives to gradually disappear.
In 2010, DHS had more than 100 million pieces of paper stored in case files at local offices and warehouses throughout the state, taking up space and hurting caseworker productivity. The agency embarked on a "going-forward strategy."
Instead of attempting to scan all of the existing printed documents, CIO Doug Kasamis spearheaded efforts to digitize and store the three types of benefit eligibility forms which collectively make up nearly 70 percent of the agency's total form volume, according to Government Technology magazine.
But rather than print and store the new case files, DHS turned them into PDFs with metadata and stored them in the agency's IBM content management system. And because the department's records retention policy required that forms be stored for only five years, as the DHS continues to digitize forms, the stored hard copy files will be phased out, Government Technology reported.
"Rather than trying to figure out a way to scan all that legacy paper, we're basically getting rid of 20 percent of our problem every year over the next five years," Kasamis said.
Most government agencies wage a daily battle against records storage and retention. Add big data hype into the mix and records managers are on the horns of a dilemma: whether to cut down on the amount of stored data or save it, in hopes that some nugget, somewhere, will justify the costs of storage and analysis.
But according to Jeff Clark, writing in the Data Center Journal, most of the data in storage is useless and identifying useful data is difficult at best. For some, he said, "the value to be gained from analyzing massive amounts of information is insufficient to justify the costs of implementing a big data analytics system."
But big data is just the latest addition to the records management headache. Even management and storage of e-mail can be problematic. When the Environmental Protection Agency wanted to move its 15-year-old e-mail system to the cloud, it discovered some mailboxes with more than a million objects in them, making moving the entire e-mail system unfeasible. Working with Lockheed Martin, the EPA, weeded out mailboxes with large attachments and archived legacy information that was older than a year.
A recent survey of federal records managers by MeriTalk found that records management issues hinder agency operations and cause budget overruns.
The report recommends agency managers consider what records they have, who needs them, for what purpose and for how long. They should then digitize those records first and destroy older inactive records that are no longer needed for compliance or business reasons, the report recommends. A common mistake when converting paper records to an electronic format is to scan and then save everything.

The Illinois DHS decision is one of the smarter ones I've seen when it comes to dealing with growing volumes of information. Taking a focused, targeted, approach and assessing a specific "type" of information that grows exponentially and making a "day forward" decision to scan and retain new information electronically while simultaneously discarding legacy paper records on an annual basis until they are gone.
Hopefully, there are sufficient metadata elements being captured on the PDFs being captured to allow access to the new files, and the repository is properly protected against improper access to protect the privacy of those whose information is contained in these files.
With a five year retention, staff is likely to come and go, and their roles may change over time disallowing any need for access, so those factors must be properly controlled. Similarly, replicated copies of the data and/or backups must be properly protected.
One "new" consideration that the DHS didn't have before will be ensuring access during power outages and network problems- those didn't impact the paper records.
As for the balance of the comments in the article regarding Federal records issues, it's a real mixed bag. Data/records are subject to retention requirements, must be properly indexed, and remain accessible... some for extended periods of time, such as 75 years or longer. Even email has to be looked at based on CONTENT to determine retention- there is no 'retention period' for email, which is only a method of communication, NOT a record series. The MeriTalk survey doesn't go far enough to identify the issues facing some Agencies- they are not all alike.

WinCustomize: Navigating the Galleries
Find the skins more easily!
Thursday, March 27, 2008 by Island Dog | Discussion: Wincustomize Tutorials
WinCustomize gets an incredible amount of visitors each month, and a great many of them are new or first time users along with the regular community members. Now whether you are a new member or a long time member, navigating through the galleries of WinCustomize might not be fully known by our users.
With that being said, I wanted to give an overview on how to navigate the galleries here on WinCustomize. We have a wide range of galleries from wallpapers, cursors, WindowBlinds skins, and much more. We also have categories for these galleries that can make finding what you are looking for a bit easier, but not everyone is aware of how to do this.
Gallery Navigation
Clicking the Gallery button in the main navigation header will take you to the gallery page. Obviously, you can go directly to your gallery of choice by clicking the specific gallery on right, but we will get started in the main gallery page to show off some of its features.
Main Gallery Page
At the top of this page we have more links to common pages like cursors, visual styles, etc. Below that we have some other sections where users can get a better view of certain skins.
- Newest: This section will show the latest skins submitted to the public gallery. A preview is shown of the latest six skins, and clicking the newest skins link will take you to a full gallery page showing the latest skins.
- Most Popular Skins: Here you will find the most popular skins by downloads. At the top of this page you can sort by specific library, and from the last 30 days, the "hall of fame" or from yesterdays count.
- Recently Featured: Skins are often featured on the front page of WinCustomize. This section allows you to sort through the skins that have been featured.
- Recently Updated Skins: Skins that were recently updated are displayed here.
- Top Skinners: Clicking here will show you the top skinners in various categories, and you can select different viewing options from the menu at the top.
- Top Master Skins: Master Skinners on WinCustomize can sell their skins. This section shows off some of the most popular Master skins.
Most Popular skins
Navigating through Categories
One library that this will be very useful for is the ObjectDock gallery, so I will use this as the example, but the other galleries function the same way. Under the main site navigation you will see the breadcrumb links. You will see these in all the galleries on WinCustomize.
Category links
Next to each text link you will notice the arrow buttons. Clicking one of these will open a menu allowing your a variety of sub-category choices depending on which you click. Lets say you are looking in the ObjectDock gallery, and want to find a nice set of tabbed dock backgrounds for ObjectDock Plus. Clicking the arrow next to "ObjectDock" will give me the menu seen below.
By selecting the "Tabbed Backgrounds" link, it will filter the gallery to show only tabbed backgrounds.
Filtered gallery results
You don't have to stop there either. You can filter it even more with settings like amount of downloads, newest, ratings, etc.
Even more filters
Sorting Galleries
So we have gone through how to navigate through the different sub-categories in the gallery sections, and now we will cover just sorting through the galleries. By default, when you enter any of the galleries on WinCustomize you will see the skins in order of the newest first. This is great, but clicking the drop-down menu above the gallery will give you more sorting choices.
You can sort the galleries by:
- Downloads Overall
- Downloads Today
- Featured Skins
- Last Updated
- Newest Skins
- Skin Name
- Skin Rating
Gallery sorting options
WindowBlinds Advanced Filters
With the addition of WindowBlinds 6 and Windows Vista skinning, the WindowBlinds gallery has an added filter that will show WB skins that are WindowBlinds 6 ready, Vista ready, or both. Clicking one of these three links will filter the galleries appropriately.
WindowBlinds gallery filters
You can also know which WindowBlinds skins are WB6 or Vista ready by looking for the icons as seen below.
Edit Displayed Libraries
On the right side navigation of WinCustomize, you will see links to some of the various galleries. By clicking "edit" you can easily add or remove galleries from that list so you can see only the galleries you are interested in.
Changing displayed libraries
Simply select or deselect the check buttons for the gallery you want to change.
Hopefully this guide will help you navigate through WinCustomize more easily, and help you find the skins you are looking for. If you still have questions or suggestions, please feel free to visit the forums. More guides on other parts of WinCustomize will also be available soon.

Pistons use balanced attack to beat Raptors
Toronto, ON – Greg Monroe paced five teammates in double figures with 24 points as the Detroit Pistons defeated the Toronto Raptors on Monday night, 108-98.
Monroe shot 10-of-18 from the field for Detroit, which snapped a three-game losing streak. Rodney Stuckey (18 points, six assists), Jonas Jerebko (15 points) and Khris Middleton (11 points) were all impressive off the bench.
"We gutted it out," Detroit head coach Lawrence Frank said. "After three games in four nights, that was something I was happy with."
Jose Calderon, who spent eight seasons in Toronto before being traded in January, tallied 19 points and nine assists in the triumph.
"It was really emotional," Calderon said, who was honored with a pre-game video tribute. "It was a great moment. I was very humbled."
Rudy Gay led all scorers with 34 points for Toronto, shooting 13-of-18 from the floor, including a perfect 4-of-4 from 3-point range. Gay also chipped in six rebounds and five assists. Jonas Valanciunas added 17 points and five blocks, while DeMar DeRozen had 15 points, seven boards, five assists and two steals for the Raptors, who have lost seven of eight.
The Pistons led 25-24 after the first quarter, although the Raptors carried a 55-54 advantage into intermission. Both teams shot greater than 54 percent from the floor over the opening 24 minutes, and the lead changed hands on 15 occasions.
Toronto opened the third quarter on a 13-4 run in the first six minutes to go up by 10, and it eventually held a 79-75 lead heading into the fourth quarter.
Detroit came out firing in the fourth quarter, running out to a 90-81 lead with 7:51 remaining thanks to a 15-2 surge. The Raptors wouldn't go quietly however, ripping off a 13-4 run themselves to take a 94-93 lead on a Gay 3- pointer with under five minutes to play.
The Pistons responded by scoring 10 straight points to put the game away.
"The first team to play defense was going to win the game, and (Detroit) played it first," Toronto head coach Dwane Casey said.
Game Notes
The Raptors have lost four straight at home and are just 17-20 at the Air Canada Centre this season ... The Pistons are 7-3 against the Raptors in the past 10 meetings ... Detroit outscored Toronto at the foul line, 15-8 ... Toronto committed just 10 turnovers, while Detroit coughed the ball up only eight times.

On the back of today's news around a Halo 3 Steam page being found, another little gem popped up… a DayZ standalone community page.
While this news doesn't mean the game is just around the corner, it does lend a little more hope that we'll not only see distribution through Steam at launch, but the developers may be closer to open beta/release than some may have anticipated.
I'd like to think I'm ready for this. I know that my mind and sanity are not. I cannot wait to see what Hall has in store for us! This may not be a very big step forward, but any movement is good movement!
They need to hurry up and launch the game before it's too late. If they're not careful The War Z developers will fix their game and take all the players.
But that still gives DayZ about 10 years to release before that happens.
They really should think about doing something with the name to clarify to customers that they aren't the same game as The War Z. Completely different games and devs. Make sure people know this.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) Joe Licata threw two touchdowns and Buffalo scored 29 points in the second half as the Bulls rallied and beat Massachusetts 29-19 Saturday in a Mid-American Conference matchup.
Licata completed 18 of 30 passes for 226 yards in only his third start of the season.

Murie finished with 90 yards on 16 carries.
Mike Wegzyn led UMass (1-10, 1-6) with 215 yards through the air but threw two second-half interceptions.

It is possible that the main title of the report Barakat Syndrome is not the name you expected. Please check the synonyms listing to find the alternate name(s) and disorder subdivision(s) covered by this report.
Barakat syndrome is a rare genetic disorder with clinical diversity, characterized by hypoparathyroidism (decreased function of the parathyroid glands which are small endocrine glands in the neck whose main function is to maintain the body calcium level), nerve deafness and kidney disease. Patients may present with hypocalcaemia, involuntary contraction of muscles (tetany), or afebrile convulsions at any age. Hearing loss is usually bilateral and may range from mild to profound impairment. Reported kidney abnormalities include nephrotic syndrome (kidney damage resulting in loss of large amounts of protein in the urine), chronic kidney disease, hematuria (blood in the urine), proteinuria (increased protein excretion in the urine), and various congenital kidney anomalies including cystic kidney, renal dysplasia (disorganized kidney tissue), hypoplasia (abnormally small Kidney), or aplasia (absence of kidney), and urologic abnormalities such as pevicalyceal deformity and vesicoureteral reflux.

The anti-gay bigots are predictably freaking out over the possibility that the Boy Scouts of America may change their policy and allow local groups that sponsor the troops decide whether to let gays serve as scouts and leaders. The Family Research Council offered this weird statement:
For decades, the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) have heroically withstood attacks from homosexual activists. Now, officials from the organization have indicated that this may be about to change. The BSA says that it is "discussing potentially removing the national membership restriction regarding sexual orientation."
"Be prepared." The motto of the venerable organization that has helped develop countless boys into men, preparedness is not only an aspiration, but a descriptor. Thus far they've been prepared to withstand the constant bullying by those who work to bring down all that the millions of dedicated Scouts and Scout leaders stand for.
A departure from their long-held policies would be devastating to an organization that has prided itself on the development of character in boys. In fact, according to a recent Gallup survey, only 42 percent of Americans support changing the policy to allow homosexual scout leaders.
As the BSA board meets next week, it is crucial that they hear from those who stand with them and their current policy regarding homosexuality. Please call the Boy Scouts of America at 972-580-2000 and tell them that you want to see the organization stand firm in its moral values and respect the right of parents to discuss these sexual topics with their children.
Considering that the United States Supreme Court has already sided with the Boy Scouts on this issue, and that a recent Gallup Poll shows most Americans side with the Scouts' current policy, and that just six months ago BSA national spokesman Deron Smith affirmed the organization's moral policy excluding homosexuals "is absolutely the best policy for the Boy Scouts," this current development illustrates – if nothing else – the brutal effectiveness of the relentless intimidation and economic pressure brought to bear on the Boy Scouts by gay rights activists and cultural extremists.
Notice something these two things have in common? When equality advocates urge the Boy Scouts to stop discriminating, that's "bullying" and "intimidation." But when bigots do the same thing, that's perfectly fine. We persuade, they bully and intimidate.

This issue has everything; car chases, romance, and naked gang fights! Wait, what?
Hawkeye #3
(Matt Fraction, David Aja)
The dynamic duo of Fraction and Aja have recently taken the reins on Earth's Mightiest Marksman, Hawkeye, and so far the series has been pretty good. Three issues in, and it looks like this series is going to snowball into a big hit. Their latest installment has pretty much everything a good comic book ought to have: naked gang fights, high speed car chases, and- wait, naked gang fights? …Yup, that happened. Don't worry, it makes sense in the story.
Clint Barton begins this issue as he has every previous issue, observing how bad his current situation is. This time, though, he gives us the rundown of the nine horrible ideas he had that day, resulting in a genuinely funny adventure through one of the more exciting days in Hawkeye's life. Starting out with a simple effort to label his arrows, as any proper archer ought, Clint then gets a little bit of "afternoon delight" with a girl who is on the bad side of the Russian mob. …which he finds out after they break into his room before they get dressed. The story concludes with a dramatic car chase and a Mexican standoff. Fraction has done a very good job giving Hawkeye depth as a character. Given his recent appearance in The Avengers, I'm sure there are people have wanted to get into the Mauve Marksman… Note to self, change that… And Fraction has been defining Clint Barton as an independent hero from the famous team. Plus, he's put a lot of humor into it.
David Aja's artwork can also be seen in the Immortal Iron Fist series, where the color palette revolved around greens, whites, and yellows. Here, the colors have been adjusted to Hawkeye's purple, browns, and yellows. It gives an interesting, signature aesthetic to the book. During the naked gang fight I mentioned before, there's a hilarious censorship choice using a cartoony version of Hawkeye's classic mask. One mild complaint I have about Aja's style is that his faces tend to look the same; characters tend to be defined by their clothing or costumes. While that works, I'd still like to see a little more definition there.
Overall, I am thoroughly enjoying this series. I'm going to continue reading it for quite a while longer. The momentum that this series has been picking up is surprising, and I would highly recommend jumping on in if you're curious. It's only three issues in, but you don't necessarily have to read issues 1 and 2 to get the current situation. I give Hawkeye #3 8 arrows out of 10.

Patriot Exhaust products continue to offer the
best value for the dollar of any brand in the industry.
This year's product offering features many new applications for the Muscle Car market.
Facts about Headers
If you need components to build your own header and exhaust system… Patriot Exhaust is the place to come! Mild steel, 304 stainless steel and aluminized bends are available in 1 1/4†to 4†diameters with a multitude of radius and wall thickness choices at affordable prices. Flange kits, formed collectors, premium gaskets, pre-bent weld up kits and the famous Smithy's® muffler complete our comprehensive offering.
To help simplify almost any exhaust installation job, we offer a complete line of hardware including flat and mounting brackets, header brackets, custom rubber grommets, saddle clamps and custom chromed circle clamps for Lake pipe installations.
Patriot offers affordable racing headers and do-it-yourself weld up kits for many applications in the popular IMCA Modified, Sprint Car, Late Model Sportsman, Street Stock, Mini-Stock and Pony Car classes. Our headers use precision machined flanges and lightweight but strong 18 gauge tubing. Mandrel bent primaries and long transition collectors reduce backpressure for increased exhaust velocity. Some applications are available with our stepped pipe design to help broaden the torque curve for better corner acceleration. Available with our optional metallic ceramic thermal barrier coating which is corrosion and heat resistant up to 1600º F providing increased thermal fatigue protection and lower under hood temperatures.
Sprint style header kits work for outside frame street rod applications, sprint cars, and front strut type drag cars. Sprint style kits come with 8 mandrel bent one piece primaries, 2 flanges, formed collectors gaskets and hardware.
Our gaskets are thick, tear resistant and cut to match our header and collector flanges. Make sure you get the perfect match by ordering our replacement gaskets.
Easy to install cut-outs permit quick bypassing of your exhaust system for maximum power in racing conditions. Kits come with all nessesary mounting hardware. Some fabrication may be required but no welding is needed.
Our complete line of exhaust hardware will help complete any exhaust installation. From rubber grommets to custom chromed circle clamps for Lake pipes, we have it.
Patriot precision machined header flange kits are available for many popular engine families. Header flange kits come complete with premium gaskets and header bolts. Choose from our 3/8†or our weight saving 5/16†flanges.
Patriot collector flange kits come compete with two flanges, gaskets and flange bolts. Round collector flanges kits include two block off plates and two flanges.
Our U-bends are available in many combinations of radius, tube diameter and length to suit professional header builders, custom muffler shops and do-it-yourselfers alike.
Give your rod a nostalgic look with our Lakester style fully welded header. Fits T-Buckets, Model A's, 32-34 Hi-Boys and most other fenderless street rods with small and big block Chevy or Ford small block engines. Classic design allows for hookup to an under chassis exhaust system, but by removing the provided blockoff plates you can easily uncork your headers.
Roadster "Fad T" and '32 Hi-Boy headers have set the industry standard for style, quality and performance. Choose between the Classic or the high performance Sprint style for small and big block Chevy and small block Ford engines. Match these headers with our Turnouts and integral mufflers for a complete exhaust system. Roadster headers are available in raw finish, with Patriot's metallic ceramic coating or with show quality chrome. All chrome headers are polished before and after assembly to assure ultimate chrome quality 360° around all pipes.
Turnouts are designed primarily for roadster style headers and are available with or without built-in six sided louvered mufflers. Turnouts provide the perfect finishing touch to many custom exhaust applications. More information.
Don't give up looking for headers for your vehicle. Patriot offers headers for many applications at prices you can afford. Built with surface machined thick steel flanges for a great seal and mandrel bent mild steel tubing. Patriot headers are available raw or with metallic ceramic coating. Unlike paint or chrome, metallic ceramic coating is easy to keep clean, resist rust and corrosion and will not discolor. Metallic ceramic coating also reduces underhood temperatures. All Patriot headers come with installation hardware, collector reducers, gaskets and instructions.
Full length and fenderwell headers provide the ultimate performance for street rodders with high performance engines. These header styles have longer primary tubes, which help produce more horsepower and torque than Tight Tucks.
Chassis headers fit inside the frame rails, but if there is not enough room, our "up and over" fenderwell headers will provide the same great performance with an awesome look.
Clippster style headers are perfect for grafting modern uni-body front clip suspensions to street rods, muscle cars and trucks. Clippster headers use longer primaries than Tight Tucks, yet shorter than full length headers. Collectors exit toward the rear of the engine compartment providing excellent ground clearance on "slammed" applications as well as clearing steering and suspension components.
Tight Tuck headers are the solution to many problems associated with engine swaps in modern street rods. Tight Tucks fit in the tightest of engine compartments and clear all stock motor mounts. Our applications include headers for small and big block Chevy engines, small block and Flathead Ford engines and small block Mopar engines. Most headers are manufactured from durable 16-gauge tubing and comes complete with gaskets, header bolts and collector reducers. Tight Tuck headers are available in three finishes; raw finish for individual customizing, chrome finish for that show quality shine or with Patriot's very popular metallic ceramic coating.
Our popular 55-57 Chevy passenger car headers for small or big b swaps offer superior performance and fit. These headers accommodate the GM 605 power steering box conversion and fit most motor mounts. Extra ground clearance makes "slammed" cars driveable and above frame rail exhaust system installation easy. Available in a raw finish for individual customizing or with Patriot's metallic ceramic coating.
Our weld-up header kits work great for street rodders and racers who need to build custom headers when a specific fit header is not available for their car. Check out our Lakester style header kits featuring 16 gauge mild steel tubing and specially designed tapered collector cones.
Sprint style header kits work for outside frame street rod applications, sprint cars, and front strut type drag cars. Sprint style kits come with 8 mandrel bent one piece primaries, 2 flanges and formed collectors.

The September tease is over. It's October, which means it's really fall this time!
So long, Indian Summer, with your hot temperatures, humid air and awkward levels of sweat, since we couldn't resist putting on a sweater and embracing our favorite season.
Now that October is finally here, shrug off all the last signs of summer – and prepare to check the following off your fall bucket list:
Drink a PSL in perfectly crisp fall weather.
Break out your favorite pair of leather boots, walk across a pile of leaves and hear that oh-so-satisfying crunch
Go apple picking and bring home more apples than you typically eat in a year.
And then use said apples to bake apple crisps, apple pies, apple cider donuts, apple tarts, apple cupcakes, apple cobbler – you get the picture.
Have a bonfire before it gets too cold to stand outside for longer than two minutes.
Start buying your "Halloween candy" weeks before the holiday – and eat it all before, too! Stores put it out more than a month in advance for a reason, right?
And remember that, in October, it's fully acceptable to consider candy corn a vegetable.
Participate in the part of football season that everyone likes, regardless of whether or not they're a sports fan: tailgating.
Watch a scary movie – or just binge-watch the last four seasons of American Horror Story.
Buy a pumpkin with the intentions of carving it in time for Halloween, but actually do it two nights before.
And of course: Shamelessly Instagram yourself doing all of the above.

Spend several hours enjoying the bountiful amenities of a nearby waterfront resort, where you might swim in the ocean, stroll along the beach or simply relax in the fabulous setting.
After departing from the pier, you will enjoy a picturesque drive toward Bodden Town, Grand Cayman's first capital. Before long, you will arrive at The White House, a lavish oceanfront resort that was once a wealthy entrepreneur's private residence. Make yourself at home because you will have full use of the facilities.
The White House is situated on one of the most beautiful beaches on Grand Cayman's southern coast, so there is plenty to enjoy. Feel free to stretch out in sun, stroll along the shore, relax in the shade of a coconut palm, and enjoy an invigorating swim in the sea.
You might even try snorkeling just offshore, as the waters are teeming with tropical fish. Or if you prefer to swim in a pool, the one at The White House is wonderfully refreshing.
The White House was designed to take full advantage of the views, and you won't be disappointed no matter where you wander. Floor-to-ceiling windows bathe the spacious Great Room with natural light, making it the ideal venue for relaxing inside.
Outside, a wooden deck (chair included) with two thatched cabanas juts out over the ocean. It's the perfect place to savor a favorite non-alcoholic beverage or lunch.

Parks Group: House Budget Plan is 'Crippling'
July 24, 2013 by RVBusiness 1 Comment
A budget plan drafted in the U.S. House of Representatives for the next fiscal year would be crippling to the National Park Service if implemented, according to the National Parks Conservation Association (NPCA).
National Parks Traveler reported that the bill, approved by the House Interior Appropriations Committee, "continues a trend of eroding the Park Service budget, as well as damaging policy amendments that threaten the health of some national parks," the park advocacy group said in a release.
While the Obama administration has proposed a roughly $2.6 billion FY14 budget for the Park Service, of which $2.2 billion would be destined for the "park operations" sub-category of the agency's budget, the budget drafted by the House committee calls for a total Park Service budget of $2.3 billion, with $2.1 billion devoted to park operations, the category that pays for actual national park management costs.
According to the NPCA release, while the legislation does boost the operations budget line by $24 million above current levels, it nevertheless cuts funding more than $115 million below the dollar amount for park operations that was in place prior to the sequester that forced a roughly 5 percent across-the-board cut on the Park Service.
"This bill demonstrates a clear recognition that national park operations have been cut too much but without the means to provide the National Park Service with the resources it needs to truly protect our parks. It retains damaging sequester funding levels, will continue to limit the ability of the National Park Service to keep visitor facilities open, and will continue to grow the backlog," said Craig Obey, NPCA's senior vice president for government affairs.
"As long as the Interior appropriations subcommittee continues to receive funding allocations with their roots in fantasy rather than reality, our national parks, historic places and cultural treasures will be at ever-increasing risk. The American people and local businesses that expect and depend upon the parks and park facilities to be open and well-run will get parks that are able to do less, because they have less to work with."

Cross-posted from BobFromBrockley
It's a while since I did one of these, partly as YouTube and Spotify and all these other web 2.0 things have displaced the good old fashioned mp3 blogs which flourished in the second half of the noughties. But here goes.
From Magnet Magazine, I am glad to discover the lovely, quirky Leonard Cohenesque singer songwriter Mirel Wagner. Slightly affected and mannered for me, but I like her:
Born in Ethiopia and raised in Espoo, Finland, Mirel Wagner is a young songwriter who creates minimal-yet-enchanting folk blues. Her self-titled debut album (on Friendly Fire) is full of haunting lyrics that express her larger-than-life thoughts. You'll be taken back by this 23-year-old's vocals and captivated by her songs. "No Hands" (download) is light-hearted and has some great acoustics.
Also from Ethiopia by way of elsewhere are Debo Band, again from Magnet Magazine:
This 11-member Boston band, led by Ethiopian-American saxophonist Danny Mekonnen and vocalist Bruck Tesfaye, incorporates traditional scales and vocal styles with American soul and funk. You'll hear violins, accordions, horns and drums… Download "Asha Gedawo," off the group's self-titled debut (out July 10 via Sub Pop), below.
"Asha Gedawo" (download).
Hava nagila
"Hava Nagila" (הבה נגילה) is such a malleable song, almost as much as Miserlou. One of my favourite versions is the mambo version by "Juan Calle and his Latin Landsmen" from 1961 (youtube). This features a couple of the best Latin musicians ever, Ray Barretto and Charlie Palmieri, as well as Willie Rodriguez, Doc Cheatham, Clark Terry, and Wendell Marshall. Apparently, Calle is actually Italian-American jazz banjo player John Cali. This was collected on the Idlesohn Society for Musical Preservation reissue Mazel Tov, Mis Amigos.
More recently, via Dani Deahl, I was thrilled to come across Kick Around Sounds' snare-heavy remix (mp3), a kind of reggaeton/moombahton version with a Dem Bow rhythm, the (slightly slowed down?) horns revealing the missing link between Bukovinian and cumbia rebajada.
Also just recently, I heard (at Star Maker Machine, under the theme of dance music) the Boban Marković Orkestar live version. Marković, who I think I've posted before on this blog, is a Roma flugelhorn player from Serbia, and this instrumental version is superb. (Mp3/stream/purchase.)
I've also long been a fan of the Italodisco version (YouTube) by Azoto (aka Celso Valli) from 1978 (the album was big in Turkey as well as Italy, and featured a version of "Zorba's Dance". New to me, though (via This Blouse), is the remix by Norway's Prins Thomas and Todd Terje, who do it all sultry and futuristic. (Mp3/stream.)

Jordan Catalano, where have you gone? Over the past few years, Jared Leto has morphed from brooding teen hunk to gloomy rocker, fronting the band 30 Seconds to Mars. But his recent outfits, (left) at the VMAs and (right) at a Fashion Week event, have us confused about his bad boy image. First of all, rockstars do not wear their blackberrys clipped to their skinny jeans like a member of the tech department. Second: Crocs? Yes, they are comfy, but they are still gardening clogs. We know he's been through a lot lately, what with all that weight gain and loss for the film Chapter 27, but we miss Jared-the-pretty boy. Tell us: what do you think of his rocker style? Should it stay or should it go? — Melissa Liebling-Goldberg
