Editors' review
Used to display a caller's phone number, caller ID readers were hot items in the '90s. However, even today, in the era of the smartphone, the infrastructure for those caller ID services is still around. With TrueCaller app for Android you can see who's calling before you answer to help you screen calls. It can even blocks bill collectors and other annoyances.
When you first set up this app, it requests that you sync it with Facebook to add your friend's numbers and pictures. It taps into the numbers and pictures of people already in your contact list by default. TrueCaller also gives you a list of hundreds of suspicious numbers from its user-submitted database that you block at once. Whenever you receive a call, it displays any of the contact information in the app's large database so you can screen it. It will tell you if the number is associated with bill collection or scam callers, too. You can block a number before you answer any time you don't want to accept the call.
Though it doesn't give an incredibly detailed call history, TrueCaller is still a worthwhile caller ID. If you've got more spammers calling you than real people, give this app a shot. You'll have all the perks of a caller ID without having to attach your phone to anything else. The blocked-calling feature is an awesome addition for a free app, too.

NEW YORK (AP) — The New York Yankees have been hit with a $28 million luxury tax bill, pushing their total past the $250 million mark since the penalty began in 2003.
According to Major League Baseball calculations Thursday, the Los Angeles Dodgers are the only team that exceeded the tax threshold this year and must pay $11.4 million. Boston finished just under the tax threshold for the second straight year, coming in $225,666 shy of the $178 million mark.
Figures include average annual values of contracts for players on 40-man rosters, earned bonuses and escalators, adjustments for cash in trades and $10.8 million per team in benefits.
The Yankees finished with the highest regular payroll for the 15th consecutive year, winding up at a record $237,018,889. The Dodgers were just $146,647 behind.

Government's court interpreting agency hit with wasted costs orders
Readers' comments (5)
"Recruit a friend" for £250, what a great idea! Except... How many of your friends are professional linguists with a Diploma in Public Service Interpreting in English Law? None? Thought so! So who are you going to refer for the court work? A mate who's out of work at the moment? A local handyman? A taxi driver maybe? Your nanny? Gavin, I'm afraid your plan has failed :))) A failed dragon in the past, a failed businessman at the moment, I bet the future isn't going to be that bright for you either!
From what I've read, it appears that anyone can become an interpreter with ALS. Apparently 'Jajo the Rabbit' was 'hired' to work at Birmingham courts:
This disaster is an egregious but sadly predictable example of the consequences of inept government procurement practices -- at best naive, arguably driven by ideology and/or wishful thinking over realism, far too often ready to accept untested assertions of capability from the cheapest bidder, assessing cost on risibly narrow terms of reference with no regard to wider value or how a service interfaces with existing processes.
MoJ has made the British justice system a JOKE.
It would appear that our noble legal profession is no longer concerned about miscarriages of justice.
It was judges that created the professional court interpreter in 2001 and it is judges through their complacency that are allowing this profession to die. Lord Justice Auld wrote in 2001: "Urgent steps should be taken to increase the numbers and strengthen the quality of interpreters serving the criminal courts and to improve their working conditions" - in other words if you want to avoid miscarriages of justice you need professional interpreters, not ALS interpreters.
Applied Language Services were apparently the only company that had enough qualified interpreters (over 3000) and they won the contract.
A miscarriage of justice, as it has been proven beyond doubt that they lied (hardly any professional interpreters are prepared to work for them), and they have been found out, now they say they have 1700 and 'more people joining every day'.
One can only speculate why a company that won through blatant lies has not been kicked out, instead the Ministry of Justice and the Government seem hell-bent on protecting it. Pure coincidence that ALS now belongs to Capita, a major party donor.
Meanwhile my wife, who as a professional court interpreter for 10 years never earned more than 20k a year, is - like many of her colleagues - leaving the profession rather than work for a company so clearly not fit for purpose. And that is a miscarriage of justice too.

Who's a brainy boy then? African grey parrots not only learn to talk, but outperform human two-year-olds in a test of intelligent reasoning.
No other animals apart from great apes match the birds' ability to understand noise-related causal connections, say scientists.
Human children only do as well as the parrots from about the age of three.
Researchers tested six African greys housed in a parrot rescue centre in Vienna, Austria. During a series of experiments, the birds were asked to choose between two closed boxes, one of which held a piece of walnut and rattled when shaken. The other, empty container, could be shaken without making a noise.
The parrots showed they knew how to detect hidden food rattling in a shaken box. But much more impressively they also worked out - almost instantly - that if a box was shaken and made no noise, the food must be in the other container.
Choices were made by a parrot walking over to a box and turning it over with its beak. In similar tests, most animals - and even small children - get confused about the way shaking and noise relate to the presence or absence of a hidden reward.
The scientists, led by Dr Christian Schloegl, from the University of Vienna, wrote in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences: "We found compelling evidence for the ability of African grey parrots to use noise created during the shaking of containers to detect hidden food.
"Even from the very first trial, our subjects could also use the absence of noise in a shaken container to infer that food must be in the other, non-shaken container. Such behaviour has so far been shown only in the great apes, but not in any other non-human animal."
It was "remarkable" that the African grey parrots, which were not used to taking part in studies, were able to out-perform highly experienced monkeys, the scientists wrote.
An odd result from the experiment was that the parrots appeared sensitive to side-to-side but not up-and-down shaking. The researchers speculated that vertical shaking may have distracted the birds by reminding them of head-bobbing, a common parrot behaviour.

couchbase view
i have this issue. We have group of developers where everybody has it's own bucket. What we need to keep synchronized are views. So my idea is to have one file with views defined under source control. This file shall then be somehow easily applicable to existing bucket so that views on this bucket would be updated.
does anybody has any idea how to approach it?
thanks Lubos
Just to make sure I understand what your asking let me re-phrase your question. It seems like you have a development cluster with a bucket assigned to each of your developers who are all working on the same project. You want to make sure the views on all of the developer buckets are the same and want to keep a file that contains all of the views in source control so that your developers can update the views on their buckets as they change.
One idea here would be to keep a script that contains a curl command for each view. When a developer wants to change a view they would just update this script. Since everything view related goes over http this should be easy to do. You can also have a parameter for the script that the takes a bucket name so that each developer would just run the script with the name of their bucket to update the views in their bucket.
Let me know if this works for you.

Newbye question - server-side moxi and .net/enym client
please forgive the n00b question...
I am working on a small test application with the .net client (1.2), and a memcached bucket. I would like not to use the moxy, but let the client (vbucket-aware, right) handle the connections to all nodes in my cluster.
I also need to use a non-standard port for the communication from client to cluster.
So far I have:
- set-up a cluster with 4 nodes
- created a memcache vbucket
- mapped the vbucket to port 12345 via web interface
In my config, I list the IP addresses of all nodes, and specify the vbucket name and port in the connection string.. something like this
Now, here comes the stupid question... is the above setup using a serverside moxy, or not? I understand the client (.net/enym) should not need to use it at all, right? Do I need to do anything special not to use it?
oops.. I cut out the connection strings...
something like this... straight form the samples
servers bucket="mybucket" bucketPassword=""
add uri="http://1. 2.3.4:12345/pools"/
add uri="http://5. 6.7.8:12345/pools"/
Not sure I understand correctly your question.
Have you tried to connect using the information described here:
This is compliant with cluster deployment too.

-- Robert Preidt
WEDNESDAY, June 8 (HealthDay News) -- As cancer patients'
survival times increase, so do their bankruptcy rates.
That's the finding of a new study by researchers who compared
U.S. bankruptcy court records to cancer registry data from nearly
232,000 adult cancer survivors in western Washington over 14 years.
The investigators reported that, on average, bankruptcy rates
quadrupled within five years of cancer diagnosis.
Compared to the general population, bankruptcy rates among
cancer survivors were nearly twice as high one year after
diagnosis, and the median time to bankruptcy was 2.5 years after
cancer diagnosis.
"The risk of bankruptcy for cancer patients is not well known, and previous studies have relied on individual self-reports about medically related reasons for bankruptcy filing," study leader Dr. Scott Ramsey, a health care economist and internist at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, said in a center news release. "By linking two irrefutable government records of cancer and bankruptcy, we are able to determine how financial insolvency risk varies by cancer type, treatment and other factors."
The risk of bankruptcy was highest among patients with cancer of
the lung, thyroid and leukemia/lymphoma. People over 65 -- who are
typically covered by Medicare -- have a much lower risk of
bankruptcy than their younger counterparts. The researchers also
noted that the number of U.S. cancer patients declaring bankruptcy
has increased significantly since the recent economic downturn
"Patients diagnosed with cancer may face significant financial stress due to income loss and out-of-pocket costs associated with their treatment," Ramsey said in the news release.
The study was presented this week at the American Society of
Clinical Oncology's annual meeting in Chicago. Because this study
was presented at a medical meeting, the data and conclusions should
be viewed as preliminary until published in a peer-reviewed

Originally written November 07, 2013 on NESN.com:
With voters deciding not to pass a $217 million referendum to renovate the Astrodome into an event and convention center, the domed haven that was once the future of baseball now appears to be destined for the long list of historic baseball palaces that have met their end. Like many of the other landmark parks, the Astrodome has fallen into disrepair, and what was once incredibly innovative (a fully air-conditioned sports complex!) is now sorely outdated and expensive to keep up. The Astrodome has been vacant for several years now, and with no sports teams — and now, no convention-goers — stepping up to use it, it appears the Astrodome may be fated to live on only in photos (albeit not sepia tone, like most of the list's other entrants). While the Astrodome certainly had many quirky features that set it apart, including its famed Astroturf, it's the stadium's historical significance that gets it onto the list of the game's best-known former parks, from the Yankees' early playing pla...

Of course some in the GOP are still panicked by last November's election results and will be inclined to sign on to almost any deal.

Three SA Referees appointed by IRB
Three South African referees, Craig Joubert, Jaco Peyper, and Lourens van der Merwe, have been appointed to officiate during the upcoming international in Europe during November.
Peyper has been handed two Tests. The first is between Romania and Japan in Bucharest on November 10. Two weeks later he will referee the match between Ireland and Argentina in Dublin.
Van der Merwe also received two Test appointments - first he has Canada against Russia in Colwyn Bay, Wales on November 17, and a week later he will be in Florence, where Italy take on Australia.
Joubert has been appointed to referee the match between the winners of the Six Nations and the Rugby Championship when Wales host New Zealand in Cardiff on November 24.
All three South Africans will also be used as assistant referees during the month.
"We are very proud to see South Africa continue our long standing tradition of producing top-class referees and I think these appointments prove this," said Andre Watson, general manager of referees at the SA Rugby Union.
"Craig and Jaco recently did very well in the Castle Rugby Championship and Lourens is starting to make his mark on the international stage. I'm very happy to see them getting the recognition they deserve.
"It is good to see new SA referees on the IRB scene and it proves that the succession planning and processes are paying off in replacing the legendary referees we have had serving the IRB in recent years."
The International Rugby Board also announced the Springboks' three Tests will be handled by Wayne Barnes of England (against Ireland in Dublin on November 10), Ireland's George Clancy (Scotland in Edinburgh on November 17) and the experienced Welshman Nigel Owens (England in London on November 24).
All three of Barnes, Clancy and Owens have refereed the Springboks in Tests so far in 2012.

Images of Samsung NX100 mirrorless compact camera leaked? (update: actual pictures of camera)
Update: real-world pictures of white camera body surface
Engadget has received actual pictures of the camera body, from someone who obviously has/had their hands on the camera. This is the white camera body. And a quick reminder, today is the last day to wear white cameras! [NEW!]
Original Post
Images of an alleged Samsung NX100 mirrorless NX-series camera have been leaked on the internets! See this dpreview Samsung forum thread posted by Alex Ramos, along with a diagram of the camera as well as discussion in the dpreview M43rds forum. The first picture also shows the new 20-50mm NX-series lens, which as Alex points out, it is not a stabilized lens (no OIS markings on the lens).
We do not know if this is the previously promised "life changing camera" or not. Photokina is just 15 days away, so we will know soon!
The leaked pictures were posted on imageshack.us, which you can also see below in case they disappear:

TREASURE COAST - With pre-season practice underway since Aug. 6 and the start of the high school fall sports season right around the corner, schools begin their preparations under new standards sent down from the Florida High School Athletic Association.
Designed to protect and ease student-athletes back into action in their respective sports, the FHSAA has assigned new procedures focusing on heat, hydration and concussions, while placing a practice time limit for the during the fall two weeks of pre-season practice.
Implemented by the FHSAA's board of directors in June, school must adhere to the following:
. Limit weekly practice time to 18 hours during the first two weeks of practice, to allow student-athletes to adapt to conditions
. Ensure that for every 30 minutes of practice, student-athletes get a minimum five-minute rest and hydration break
. Require unrestricted access to water for student-athletes at all times
. Require coaches and others in authority to never deny a student-athlete access to water if requested.
In addition, the FHSAA also adopted a new concussion and heat-related illness form. By explaining the symptoms and risks associated with each problem, the form creates a heightened level of safety awareness among students-athletes and their coaches.
A concussion action plan developed by the FHSAA's sports medicine advisory subcommittee and adopted by the board requires the following:
. Any student-athlete who exhibits signs, symptoms or behaviors consistent with a concussion - such as loss of consciousness, headache, dizziness, confusion or balance problems - must be immediate removed from the competition and cannot return to play until he or she is cleared by an appropriate health care professional.
. All head coaches and other paid coaches are required to view an online education course about concussions.
Lastly, the FHSAA has created a new consent form related to concussions and heat-related illness to ensure parents understand the conditions and rules that apply to them.
As far as the early returns on these changes from an on-the-field standpoint, with less time to work with, coaches have placed an emphasis on slowly building up the pace as the practices go along.
Ron Parker, head football coach at St. Lucie West Centennial, conducted his practices with the focus primarily on simplicity.
"The old saying is that you got to crawl before you walk," said Parker.
"We basically have to get more reps, keep it as simple as we can, get it down right and move on to the next chapter."
Fort Pierce Central head football coach Josh Shaffer said the changes have not called for drastic adjustments for his squad.
"It just changes the fact that we're not doing two-a-days during the first week but we had planned on slowing it down a little bit," said Shaffer. "We've incorporated the five-minute breaks after every period but other than that, it hasn't changed much."
Over at Martin County High School, head coach Chuck Kenyon also hasn't had to made dramatic changes to his approach due to cutbacks on time.
"Even before this year, we didn't do two-a-days last, so the changes hasn't affected us on that level," said Kenyon.
Central, Centennial, and Martin County will all be playing home games for their respective kickoff classics on Aug. 24.
The Cobras play Treasure Coast at Calvin R. Triplett Field at Lawnwood Stadium, while the Eagles will battle Fort Pierce Westwood from South County Regional Stadium.
The Tigers will host John I. Leonard from Greenacres at Bob Collins Stadium. All games are scheduled to begin at 7 p.m.

PLOVER, Wis. (WSAU) - Preliminary hearings have been set for a Wisconsin Rapids couple charged with breaking into a Plover home and stealing guns and a television.
24-year-old Antoinne Keys and his girlfriend 22-year-old Jessica Winters are charged with taking the items June 30th while the owner was away from home. Winters knew the owner was away, after having a conversation with him at a nightclub she worked at. Winters had also been invited inside the victim's home before, and knew where the gun case was.
Twelve guns, including some rare hunting rifles were taken. The complaint says Keyes broke the television while stealing it and threw it in a dumpster. He told detectives he realized he made a mistake, and admits throwing the guns in the Wisconsin River at Wisconsin Rapids.
The couple allegedly discussed the robbery because of how broke they were, yet Winters was able to post a $7,500 cash bond to get out of jail. Keyes remains in jail on a $10,000 cash bond.
Both will be back in court with Judge Thomas Eagon for preliminary hearings. Keyes will appear September 3rd, and Winters will appear September 9th.

Corpse Run 296: Blurrier all the time
The next livestream will be this Friday, March 22nd at 10pm est and can be viewed either here or here.
A long while back there was a strip that was structured similarly, detailing screen-watching through the years. There was something… ever so slightly dishonest about that strip: instead of the "normal" haired Alex you see, I actually tried the long hair thing in High School.
What High School me looks like in today's strip is much closer to actual High School me.
Some guys can pull off long hair, and when I was around fourteen or so I totally thought I was going to be one of them.
It was a greasy, curly mess of stuff useful only for the construction of bird's nests and nightmares. Making the situation significantly worse than the train wreck it had become was my teen-stache, a collection of roughly 20 hairs along my upper lip that looked as if they were haphazardly glued on while I was riding a roller-coaster.
Lemme tell you, I was a looker.
Also in this strip is our old cat, Anoush. This absolute beast of a feline died at 22 years old (I was in fourth grade at the time), and by the last year of her life was both deaf and blind. I would probably have made Helen Keller jokes at the time, but I'm not sure if I was aware of who Helen Keller was by then.
Inappropriate jokes aside, here's an Anoush story!
Every morning before heading out to school my sister and I would put out her food and water. She would run over (ungracefully) and eat up. One particular morning I left out her food, but she didn't come running.
I walked around the house calling out her name… calling out the name of a deaf cat.
I wasn't a very bright kid.
My sister and I searched the house and she was absolutely nowhere to be found; we were about to give up when-
There was a car just outside our house, honking away at something.
That something was Anoush, who wandered outside and decided she wanted to relax in the middle of the road, completely unable to hear or see the car honking at her just a few feet away.
That cat was awesome.
Alrighty guys, as mentioned above, the next livestream will be this Friday, March 22nd at 10 pm est! I'll be doodling your suggestions from the comments, telling any stories that come to mind, etc. You guys know the drill at this point.
Chances are good that I'll be playing more Borderlands 2 for the games portion of the stream.
The stream can be viewed either here or here.
See you then!
Ha ha, so funny post, in my case every morning before heading out to school my bro and I would put out her food and water.

DETROIT (AP) - Some of Detroit's largest creditors are asking a judge to let them have a role in assessing the city's valuable art collection.In a court filing Tuesday, the creditors in Detroit's bankruptcy say they're in the dark when it comes to art at the Detroit Institute of Arts. The art has been undergoing an appraisal by the Christie's auction house. The report is expected in December.Judge Steven Rhodes is being asked to appoint a 10-member committee to work with Detroit on a strategy to possibly make money off the art to pay creditors if the bankruptcy case proceeds.Creditors say they're concerned that emergency manager Kevyn Orr might not maximize the art's potential. It could be worth billions.The Michigan attorney general's office says the art can't be sold.Judge Rhodes has said he will announce his ruling Tuesday, December 3 on if he has approved Detroit's bankruptcy or not.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Documents displayed for a jury show the promoter of Michael Jackson's ill-fated comeback concerts contemplated a worldwide tour for the entertainer in the year before his death.
A possible touring schedule drafted in September 2008 included shows in Europe, India, Australia and the United States.
It was prepared by a top AEG Live LLC executive trying to coax Jackson back on stage for the first time in more than a decade.
An accounting expert testifying for Jackson's mother in a negligent hiring case against AEG says he relied on its projections when he estimated the entertainer could have earned more than $1 billion if he didn't die in June 2009.
AEG has disputed the figures prepared by Arthur Erk, a certified public accountant.

Fujifilm X-A1 Review
Fujifilm X-A1 Review – Performance
The Fujifilm X-A1 is a brisk performer that never keeps you waiting to take a shot. It can start up and take a picture in a little over two seconds, and shuts down again even quicker despite running a sensor-cleaning routine as it powered down.
The X-A1's shot-to-shot time in single-shot mode was consistent at every zoom setting and in every shooting mode, from normal JPEG to fine JPEG plus Raw, at 1.1 seconds per shot, and it appears to be able to keep that pace indefinitely, or at least until your memory card is full.
There are cameras that can shoot faster, but given that the sensor generates raw files that average 24.5MB and fine JPEGs averaging around 4.5MB, that's some pretty slick data handling.
The X-A1 has two continuous shooting modes, at 3fps and 5.6fps, and in JPEG mode it can shoot in either one until the card is full. In Raw + JPEG mode it can manage ten shots at either speed before it has to stop to empty the buffer, which is again very impressive.
Battery and Wi-fi
The X-A1's pop-up flash is pretty quick too; it can recycle from a full-power shot in approximately five seconds.
As for battery duration, Fujifilm claims just 350 shots on a full charge from the big 1260mAh li-ion rechargeable, but this seems to be a very conservative estimate.
I shot about 400 test pictures, including a lot with the flash, tried out the Wi-Fi feature and spent a lot of time mucking about with the menus, and the battery level indicator didn't budge from three bars. I'd be surprised if it ran out before 600 shots.
If the X-A1 has a weak-spot it would be low-light focusing, but it's only a weakness by comparison to the rest of its exemplary performance. Shooting in near darkness it did sometimes fail to focus on some targets, but at least it lets you know quickly rather than hunting around, and it nearly always worked on a second try. It does have a focus-assist lamp, but it's positioned very close to the hand grip, so you'll have to be careful not to block it with your finger.

TREASURE COAST -- For most players, when the last football game of the high school season is over, it's time to hang up their cleats.
For some, leaving school to get a job to support a family instead of pursuing the dream of hitting the college football field becomes a harsh reality.
For others, life on the streets takes what was once within grasp and turns it into a faded memory.
However, for nearly 50 local men, the dream of playing football after high school has become a reality.
The Treasure Coast Bengals have given a second, third and sometimes fourth chance to a hard-working group of athletes who sacrifice themselves each week in the hopes of catching the eye of a college scout.
"We've got a great bunch of guys who really work hard," said John Chandler, Bengals head coach. "I've got ex-gang members who normally wouldn't associate with each other playing on the same team. They've got a common goal; to get better. They want to win football games, so they put their personal differences aside when they walk onto the field."
The Bengals are part of the South Florida Football League, and last season finished with an 8-4 record.
Key players to watch out for are Donald Brown, quarterback, who was an outstanding player at Fort Pierce Westwood High School. He brings leadership and tenacity to a loaded offense. Running back Tyrone Smith of Fort Pierce, last year's Elite MVP, brings a forceful running game to the Bengals.
Linebacker Mike White from Vero Beach and safeties Derrick Taylor and Travis Cass from Indian River County anchor a strong defense.
The Bengals don't turn anybody away from joining the team.
"It takes dedication and hard work. If they can handle the work, then they can play," Coach Chandler said. "We offer a chance to players that they might not get anywhere else. They are encouraged to finish their diploma, take college entrance exams and give back to the community. We had one player who got a scholarship to play at the University of South Florida. Hard work pays off."
The team also participates in food drives and toy drives for the needy. This month, they will participate in the second annual Diamonds, Inc., "Walk Against Violence" starting at 11 a.m. on March 9 along Avenue D in Fort Pierce.
"Many of these players have made their share of mistakes. This is a chance for them to redeem themselves and make a difference in the community."
The team plays 10 regular season games. There will be an all-star game May 25 and a championship game May 26, both taking place at Lawnwood Stadium in Fort Pierce. All home games take place at Lawnwood Stadium on March 9, 16 and 30 and April 6 and 20. Games start at 7 p.m. and there is a $5 entrance fee.

The beloved eagles of Toomers Corner have overlooked the oaks for more than 50 years and after a much needed sprucing up, they're finally home.
The weather looks great for A-Day in Auburn this Saturday and fans will see the eagles back at Toomers Corner, landing after months of repairs. It took more than four hours to put the historic statues back on their pedestals at the main gates.
"It's been amazing to me how in the last three or four months how many calls we get in the communications office. People realized something was missing at Toomers Corner, it's not just the leaves on the trees," Auburn University representative Mike Clardy said.
That something missing was the 300 pound marble bald eagle statues, the school's mascot. The iconic pair was given to Auburn in the 1960s by alumnus William C. Sugg. Over the years, the statues withstood some wear and tear, with a missing beak on one, a damaged wing on the other, and each bird's breast being spray painted red by vandals. The pair was sent off to Washington for repairs.
Master Stone Mason Anthony Miller helped get the statues back in shape. He says the task was difficult due to the sculptures being made out of marble, "These are quite delicate, quite fragile. So it was a delicate operation."
The delicate operation took about five months and over 200 hours of meticulous work.
"They had lost some of their definition and the little crisp edges were worn with weather so they went back and re-carved on it and he just told me they spent about twenty hours re-carving around the eyes and some of the feather features," Founder of Lathan Company Incorporated, Jerry Lathan said.
Lathan said it wasn't about money, but a labor of love.
The project cost the university $20,000. A representative says it's a small price to pay to preserve this fan favorite spot.

Psst, wanna take some extra drugs home to your partner? That's the premise behind an increasingly common healthcare practice supported by the CDC. In patient-delivered partner therapy, health care providers offer extra prescription medicine to patients so that the patients can take some home to treat their sexual partners. The patient is cured; the partner is cured. Its a win-win situation, but what should the package look like that you take home to your partner and what should it say?
That's the goal of an ongoing project to develop packaging and educational materials to support PDPT among providers, patients, and partners.
In preliminary efforts, AEI formatively developed and evaluated an integrated packaging system. As reported in a recent edition of the Journal of Sexually Transmitted Infections, the { read more }

Genetic Tests Serve Many Purposes
Genetic tests serve many purposes. They are widely used to screen newborns for a variety of disorders. Often this information enables the doctors to minimize the damage caused by the mutation.
In oncology, doctors use gene testing to diagnose cancer, to classify cancer into subtypes, or to predict a patient's responsiveness to new treatments.

COMMERCE CITY, Colo. -- The LA Galaxy extended their unbeaten run to ten games as Marcelo Sarvas and Jaime Castrillon traded first half goals, but the most important news of the night was a knee injury to A.J. DeLaGarza
In the 30th minute, while attempting to stop an Omar Cummings run up field, DeLaGarza appeared knock knees with the Jamaican forward. The injury forced DeLaGarza to be stretched off the field and was carried by the club's training staff into the locker room. A team official confirmed that the preliminary diagnosis was a left knee sprain for DeLaGarza.
A few notes from the match:
*Tommy Meyer stepped in for DeLaGarza making his first league appearance since a 1-0 May 5 defeat to the New York Red Bulls at The Home Depot Center.
* Marcelo Sarvas goal was his second of the season.
*With their unbeaten run extended their unbeaten run to ten in all competitions.
*During LA's unbeaten run, the Galaxy have only trailed for a total of 20 minute (17 minutes against the Columbus Crew and three against Isidro Metapán).
*The match featured a brief downpour midway through the second half.
We're just a couple of hours away from tonight's clash between the Colorado Rapids and the LA Galaxy.
Above is a shot that I snapped during a walk through the city this afternoon of Denver's reknowned Daniels and Fisher Tower. The 20-floor clock tower was built in 1910 and at the time was the largest building between Mississippi and California.
As we lead into the match, check out my Three Points to the game.
The Seattle Sounders have clinched a postseason berth and in the process guaranteed that at least one MLS Cup playoffs game will be at The Home Depot Center.
On Saturday evening, Seattle played the Vancouver Whitecaps to a scoreless draw at BC Place which assures that LA Galaxy can finish no lower than fourth, meaning that LA will host at least one playoff game this postseason.
2012 will be the fourth straight year that a Galaxy playoff game is played at The HDC.
The LA Galaxy are off to Denver, Colorado this afternoon as they prepare to take on the Colorado Rapids on Sunday.
I'll have more news once the team lands, but while I'm in mid-air, check out LAGalaxy.com staff writer Larry Morgan's preview of the match in Colorado.
Below is LAGalaxy.com's video preview of the match.
CARSON, Calif. -- The LA Galaxy will likely be without their newest signing Christian Wilhelmsson for Sunday's match against the Colorado Rapids.
Wilhelmsson is currently listed as questionable for Sunday's match due to a left calf strain that has prevented him from participating in the club's final three training sessions this week. However, with that is of little concern to Galaxy captain Landon Donovan, who attests that LA can more than handle the Swede's absence
"He looks like he got banged up a little bit, we'll see," said Donovan. "We've developed a really, really deep team so there's a lot of guys that can step up if he can't play."
Read more on Wilhelmsson as well as an update on David Beckham in my Training Notebook from Friday
CARSON, Calif. -- David Beckham is hopeful that he'll be able to his first appearance in nearly a month against the Colorado Rapids on Sunday.
Beckham has become a steady fixture on the Galaxy training ground this week after missing the past three matches due to a left ankle sprain. Although Beckham is listed as questionable for Sunday's match, head coach Bruce Arena told reporters on Thursday that the English midfielder is "getting better" and "moving forward" ahead of Sunday's clash in Colorado.
On Friday, Beckham discussed his availability for Sunday in the quotes below....
BECKHAM: "I'm getting there. It's obviously difficult being out a few weeks and coming back, but I've had a good week of training and I should be okay for this weekend."
(On potentially going 90 minutes in Colorado...)
BECKHAM: "We have to wait and see. Obviously, you have to build it up again and judge how I feel during the game and what Bruce and the physios think so hopefully I can play 90, but with the altitude and it is my first game back after three-and-a-half weeks so I hope that I can do it."
CARSON, Calif. – Christian Wilhelmsson's status for Sunday's match against the Colorado Rapids is up in the air.
The Swedish winger was listed on the club's injury report on Friday as questionable with a left ankle sprain. Wilhelmsson has missed the last two training sessions, but was receiving treatment during Friday's session.
Following Friday's training session, head coach Bruce Arena told reporters that Wilhelmsson would be "fine", but he did not know if he'd feature or travel to Colorado.
With the Puerto Rico Islanders victory over Isidro Metapán on Thursday, the LA Galaxy sealed their berth in the CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinals.
However, the job is far from done for the Galaxy as LA still has one match left to play on October 25 against Metapán in El Salvador. That match will be vital in terms of the seeding process that will determine which the match ups for the quarterfinals.
Following practice on Thursday, rookie midfielder Rafael Garcia discussed qualification and the second team's role in the match in El Salvador.
GARCIA: "It's very nice, now we just need to do the work and take care of business over there, that way that the whole seeding process will benefit us in the long run. We're thinking about going out there and getting a win. For us younger players, just knowing that we helped in the process is definitely a great feeling and it's not going to be easy since it is a hostile environment there, but we just have to go out there and do our best so we can hopefully get that win."
CARSON, Calif. -- Marcelo Sarvas has become an integral part of LA Galaxy midfield, but months ago, he was fighting for a playoff spot.
Following Thursday's practice session, I caught up with Sarvas' who discussed his recent run of form and the role that David Beckham's absence played in his rise.
Check out my piece on Sarvas here.
Below Sarvas discusses the role that his compatriot Juninho has played in his rise..
SARVAS: "We solve many problems just by talking during the game. It goes two ways, he's helped me and I've helped him. It's something that is mutual and natural. We help each other with our position and if there is something that he doesn't see during the game then I do my best to put him in a good spot. We both help one another."
The LA Galaxy have clinched a berth in the CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinals and they didn't even need to kick a ball to do so.
With the Puerto Rico Islanders 3-0 victory over Isidro Metapán in Puerto Rico on Thursday, the Galaxy have sealed the top spot in CCL group 5. The Galaxy close out the group stages on Oct. 25 against Metapán in El Salvador and even though LA have qualified for the quarterfinals, their match against Metapán will still be vital in determining the club's overall seeding for the knock out round.
Unlike past tournaments, the winners from the eight groups will be seeded according to their record, with the club with the best record taking on the club with the worst, the second best record taking on the seventh best and so on. If clubs have identical records after the group stage then the rankings will be determined by the following tie-breakers, listed in order: 1. Total goal difference, 2. Most goals Scored, 3. Most Goals Scored Away from home 4. Most Wins 5. Most Away Wins 6. Drawing of Lots. Remember that the club with the highest ranking will host the second leg of the quarterfinals series.
It remains to be seen what type of squad that head coach Bruce Arena will use in the final match in El Salvador as the game is in the middle of two important league games against the San Jose Earthquakes on Oct. 21 at Buck Shaw Stadium and the regular season finale against the Seattle Sounders on Oct. 28.
Based on the tie-breakers, if the CCL ended today, the quarterfinal stage would look like this:
1. Santos Laguna (MEX) vs. 8. Alajuelense (CRC)
2. Monterrey (MEX) vs. 7. Xelajú (GUAT)
3. Seattle Sounders (USA) vs. 6. Houston Dynamo (USA)
4. Herediano (CRC) vs. 5. LA Galaxy (USA)
Happy to see the Galaxy through to the quarterfinals? What type of squad do you expect Arena to use in El Salvador?

Soaring ticket prices are killing football attendance
The average cost for a family of 4 to attend an NFL game is $444. That high-def experience in the living room is suddenly looking very good.
What if they held a football game and nobody came?
Sure, professional and college football remain among the most popular sports in the United States, and television ratings for those games continue to rise dramatically.
But the NFL and college football are seeing more and more empty seats at their stadiums as a growing number of fans opt out from the live experience to watch the game at home or in a bar.
Just last month, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell acknowledged that broadcast and Web coverage of football is a real threat to stadium attendance and ticket sales.
"One of our biggest challenges in the league is the experience at home," the New York Post quoted Goodell telling fans in Atlanta. And he noted that, with the rapid growth of large-screen high-definition television, the experience "is only going to get better."
The Wall Street Journal reports NFL ticket sales have declined for the past five years, with average game attendance down 4.5% since 2007.
For decades, the NFL has tried to encourage stadium sales with its TV blackout policy of not showing a game in a local team's market if that game hadn't sold out before kickoff. Earlier this year the league announced it was easing that policy, saying "home teams now will have the option of selling 85% of game tickets to avoid a blackout in their local TV market."
But the rising costs of ticket sales are a constant obstacle to putting more football fans in stadium seats.
According to the latest Team Marketing Report's fan cost index (FCI), the average cost for an NFL ticket is $78.38, up 2.5% from last season.
And the average FCI number for a family of four attending an NFL game -- including non-premium tickets, a couple of beers, soft drinks, hot dogs, some souvenirs and parking -- is $443.93, a rise of 3.9% from 2011.
"Only this season have NFL teams wised up and begun to sell blocks of tickets -- in the nosebleed sections, to be sure -- priced for working people," blogs Allen Barra in the Village Voice.
"Empty seats can be covered up on TV -- the NFL simply instructs the networks to keep the cameras away from the bare spots in the stands," he writes. "But with more and more fans staying home, how does the league make a case that the cities should spend the fans' tax dollars to help finance new stadiums?"
And college football is sharing some of its pro counterpart's financial headaches.
While 35.3 million people reportedly attended college football games this year, the average attendance at regular-season games in college football's highest level, the Football Bowl Subdivision, dropped to just over 45,000 fans in 2012 -- its lowest average level in nine years.
According to Al.com, eight college football powers saw game attendance at their stadiums fall by double digit numbers this year, compared to 2011 -- Kentucky, down 17%, Maryland, down 15%, Stanford, down 13 percent -- with Cincinnati, Wake Forest, Pittsburgh, North Carolina and Colorado all down 10%.
Some schools in the Southeastern Conference, where regular season ticket prices can hover around $100, are trying to lure fans back by offering wireless computer access at their stadiums, so fans can bring their laptops and mobile devices to the games.
The NFL is also hoping to get Wi-Fi into all its stadiums in the near future. In a press conference earlier this year, Goodell said fans at the stadium would then "have access to our RedZone channel, have access to highlights, and be able to engage in social media including Fantasy Football. When you come to our stadiums, we want to make it a great experience."
"We want there to be very little difference between sitting on your couch and being here," Cassie Arner, an Auburn University assistant athletics director, told the Birmingham News. "If we really want to continue to have the strong crowds that we have, then we've got to start being sensitive to making things more convenient for fans, if we can."
More from Money Now
I still don't get the $10+ for a beer at pro events. Thats over 1000% profit per drink. If theres price gouging laws with gasoline there should be on everything else too. If these stadiums had it their way they would make you drop your pants before entry bend over and take a big black **** in your ***.

The search for Australia's best young cricketer begins with the hopefuls tested under the watchful eye of Allan Border, as the dream starts to become a reality for fifteen talented sportsmen.
After a montage of high-energy international games, we zoom in to Lee Furlong ("Foxtel personality and cricket lover", according to the narrator) and Allan Border. "Are you in?" she asks, "Or are you… OUT?" completes Allan Border, who has clearly been put through dramatic-pause bootcamp. More montage-ing, in which Ricky Ponting observes that he'd have liked Cricket Superstar to have been around when he was young, although I can't see why. He managed to get a baggy green and take the national captaincy without the help of a televised talent quest, which promises to include challenges of no cricketing value whatsoever.
This is the first episode and I was diligently taking notes whilst watching only to decide that the entire 61 minutes (including ads) was preamble and that I'd have to watch at least one episode with the top 15 to decide whether or not to persevere. Some observations:
- Watching cricketing hopefuls drop catches is not as much fun as Pants on the Ground-type Idol auditions.
- In terms of entertainment value, the over-confidence of the Victorian "ladies man" was just as difficult to watch as the tongue-tied awkwardness of the poor South Australian contender.
- There are 18 year-old radio relationship counsellors? I weep for the future.
- The camera work needs to improve. I was having some grumpy David Stratton "keep it STEADY!" moments.
- Tension over who was to be selected was almost non-existent as most of those through had been featured heavily throughout the episode. Makes me wonder why they bothered with the "tryouts" episode at all, really, given how dull it was.
- Really not sure why they needed to include a keeper and a range of bowlers in the fifteen. We need opening batsmen!
Next week – a fire!
