How can violence prevention become more equity focused? What does it look like to acknowledge the impact of race, class, sexual orientation and ability in the development, implementation and evaluation of prevention efforts? This web conference will provide a space for a closer look at enhancing violence prevention work to promote health equity. Based on the framework presented in CDC's recent publication "A Practitioner's Guide for Advancing Health Equity: Community Strategies for Preventing Chronic Disease", this web conference will delve into disproportionate outcomes based on race, class, sexual orientation, and ability within the context of violence prevention. Guests will explore opportunities to better address equity issues and support health equity as a part of prevention initiatives.

Moral & Spiritual Values
Attention to the mission of the University serves as the foundation of the Core Curriculum, specifically the commitment to excellence in education and a concern for moral and spiritual values. The Spiritan values of global justice, the kinship of all peoples, and service to others figure prominently. Literacy in philosophy and theology, the "bedrock" disciplines of a holistic Catholic education, coupled with the theme areas of "faith and reason," global diversity, and social justice in the curriculum reflect the University's Catholic Spiritan commitment. The service-learning requirement links academic theory and community-based practice. The study of ethics is not only a requirement of the Core but has also been incorporated into all programs. And programming in campus ministry focused upon prayer, theological reflection, education and service for justice, and spirituality further solidify this strong commitment.

The journey to a high school diploma for most Maryland students spans four years, 720 days of classes, and a slate of state tests. But for dozens of Baltimore youths, the journey has involved a two-hour trip up Interstate 95, a three-hour exam and a $500 check.
Over the past year and a half, the Baltimore City Department of Social Services paid $40,000 of taxpayer money to send youths in foster care to a private Christian school in Philadelphia where they have obtained a high school diploma in one day.
Social Services officials defend the program, despite its unusual method of providing diplomas. They say the overwhelming majority of the 80 youths who have traveled to Crooked Places Made Straight Christian Academy have been successful at the small K-12 school.
The youths, most age 18 and older, went to the academy in the morning, took a series of exams, and if they passed, returned to Baltimore that afternoon with a Pennsylvania diploma.
Molly McGrath Tierney, director of the city social services agency, said those diplomas are like "keys to the kingdom" for youths whose life circumstances have prevented them from having a traditional school career.
"I'm not an expert in what everyone has to do to get a high school diploma, but what I do know is … these diplomas opened doors where they would have otherwise been slammed shut," she said.
City Councilwoman Mary Pat Clarke questions why Baltimore's public school system — which has several alternative programs that help students as old as 21 meet graduation requirements — could not meet the needs of the youths in foster care.
"There's no reason that the school system and DSS couldn't have made these diplomas accessible in an accelerated way through a partnership with GED," said Clarke, who chairs the council's Education Committee and has advocated for improved access to alternative and adult education programs.
She added that with the money spent on the diplomas from the Philadelphia school, "we could pay for a lot of GED tests for our students, or we could jump-start the education required for them to get those diplomas."
Others questioned whether this was the best use of taxpayer funds and said such a decision should have been publicly vetted.
"For an investment of this nature, you really do need a holistic analysis of whether this is the best way to handle these students," said Jennifer Bevan-Dangel, executive director of Common Cause Maryland.
"We don't want to just fail our kids, and leave them behind … but with government funds, especially sent to religious institutions, this needs to be holistically decided."
The Crooked Places Made Straight option is similar to the General Educational Development (GED) certificate, a nationally recognized program that offers a series of tests in lieu of state-required course work in order to obtain a high school diploma, or the equivalency.
The GED is a regulated program that can only be administered at approved sites, and test-takers generally pay an out-of-pocket fee that ranges from $45 to $150, depending on whether the test is done on paper or on a computer.
Winona Stewart, principal of Crooked Places Made Straight, said she has run the program for 15 years.
In a telephone interview Monday, she staunchly defended the program, which has served young adults from Baltimore and other states she did not specify, though she acknowledged that its legitimacy has been challenged.
"I don't get why people are questioning me when people get GEDs all day long," she said. "Most kids don't graduate on a 12th-grade level, no way."
She added that "a lot of kids who left from here, they're going to college, the Marines. At least they can move to the next level, and they can do something positive with their life."
But after inquiries from The Baltimore Sun to the school's accrediting body, the National Association of Private Schools, Stewart said Friday that she was shutting the one-day testing program down.
"My boss explained some things that I was doing wrong that I just didn't know that I was doing wrong," Stewart said. Of note, she learned that Baltimore students would have to do at least a year's worth of work to earn the diploma she was awarding.

Patton Oswalt Biography
Patton Oswalt Biography on Monsters and Critics
"Patton Peter Oswalt" (born January 27, 1969) is an American stand-up comedian, voiceover artist and actor.
Personal life
Oswalt was born in Portsmouth, Virginia, to Carla and Larry J. Oswalt. He grew up in Sterling, Virginia and is a 1987 graduate of Broad Run High School in Ashburn, Virginia. He attended the College of William and Mary, where he majored in English and was initiated into the Alpha Theta Chapter of the Phi Kappa Tau Fraternity.
Oswalt married writer Michelle McNamara, on September 24, 2005. Their daughter, Alicia Rigney Oswalt, was born in April 2009.
Oswalt first began performing standup comedy in the late 1980s or early 1990s, by his own reckoning.
After writing for "MADtv" and starring in his own 1997 comedy special for HBO, he went on to garner notable roles in films and television shows. His most prominent and long-running role was as Spence Olchin on "The King of Queens". His first starring film role was as the voice of Rémy, the lead character in the 2007 Pixar film "Ratatouille". He has also appeared in smaller roles in such films as "Magnolia" and "Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa". He lent his voice as in the video game "Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas" as a caller on the WTCR show 'The Tight End Zone', and was the voice of a caller on 'Chatterbox' on LCFR in the PlayStation Portable game "Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories". He was also the voice of a reporter on 'New World Order', a radio show on VCPR in "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories".
Oswalt wrote the comic book "JLA: Welcome to the Working Week", a backup story in "Batman" #600, a story for "Dwight T. Albatross's The Goon Noir #01" and a story for "Masks: Too Hot for TV". Expanding his voice artist repertoire, he began voicing the villainous character 'Tobey' on PBS Kids GO! series "WordGirl" in 2007.
In July 2006, Oswalt's comic script "Fruit Pies!" was turned into a short film available at YouTube and MySpace. He also appeared on the Comedy Central Roast of William Shatner. In August 2007, he appeared on the Comedy Central Roast of Flavor Flav. In 2007, he appeared on an episode of "SpongeBob SquarePants", 'The Original Fry Cook', as Jim. He also appears as Carl, the Corndog Hut's mascot in American Hi-Fi's music video for 'Another Perfect Day'. He also appears in an Episode of "Static Shock". On June 27, 2007, Oswalt was a special guest on the "Emeril Live" program on the Food Network to promote "Ratatouille".
Stand-up comedy
Patton with a fan in Seattle in 2008.
Oswalt's stand-up comedy covers topics ranging from pop culture frivolity such as comic book supervillains and 1980s glam metal to deeper societal issues like American excess, materialism, Mesopotamian cuneiform script, foreign policy and religion.
In 2004, Oswalt released a comedy album entitled "Feelin' Kinda Patton" and later that year a longer, unedited version of the same performance entitled "222", both through the United Musicians collective, and a stand-up special "No Reason to Complain". He is also on a split EP called "Patton vs. Alcohol vs. Zach vs. Patton" with Zach Galifianakis and is featured on two Un-Cabaret compilations, 'The Un & Only' and 'The Good, the Bad and the Drugly'. On July 10, 2007, Patton released his second CD "Werewolves and Lollipops" on Sub Pop records.
In 2004, Oswalt put together the Comedians of Comedy tour, comprised of modern alt-comics Zach Galifinakis, Brian Posehn and Maria Bamford. The tour performed at smaller, more intimate indie rock venues instead of traditional (and expensive) comedy clubs. The Fall 2004 tour was documented in a 2005 film of the same name, and was followed by a six-episode Comedy Central series based on the Summer 2005 tour. This tour featured special guest appearances from comedians such as Blaine Capatch, David Cross, Bobby Tisdale and Todd Barry. Subsequent incarnations of the tour have included Eugene Mirman and Morgan Murphy.
Oswalt appeared as a lawyer in "Lewis Black's Root of All Evil". At the 2008 BlizzCon, he provided the stand-up comedy for the ending ceremony.
On February 28, 2009, Patton recorded his third comedy album at the Lisner Auditorium in Washington D.C. It premiered on Comedy Central as "Patton Oswalt: My Weakness is Strong" on August 23, 2009, and will be released on DVD August 25, 2009.

I am relatively new to php but i am learning slowly. I am building a sports database website / cms, which is getting there very nicely.
I am having an issue joining 3 tables together, if i use then as separate queries they do 'exactly' what i want them to do, however I am at a loss as to how to join them together.
As far as i am aware i do not need to change anything in the database itself i just need to get the query correct.
Here is what i have done that works.
$get_players = mysql_query("
SELECT P.PlayerID AS id,
P.PlayerLastName AS lastname,
P.PlayerFirstName AS firstname,
P.PlayerPositionID AS position,
P.PlayerNumber AS number,
P.PlayerNationalityID AS nationality,
FROM idihc_seasons S
LEFT OUTER JOIN idihc_players P ON P.PlayerID = S.SeasonPlayerID
LEFT OUTER JOIN idihc_seasonnames SN ON SN.SeasonID = S.SeasonID
WHERE SN.SeasonPublish = 1 and P.PlayerPublish = 1
GROUP BY id
ORDER BY number
or die(mysql_error());
I am now trying to join data which is held in a second column on a new table, which is linked via the id between them. I can currently get the query to display the 'id' which is the unique filed but it wont change it to the new value.
What i am trying to add: -
I have the 'idihc_players' table which has in it 'PlayerPositionID' (Which is already being used in the above query)
I also have 'idihc_playersposition' which has 'PlayerPositionID' and 'PlayerPositionName'
what i wish to display is the 'PlayerPositionName' from the 'id' it finds, however i just get a blank and no data populated.

Our first edition of 50 sold out, but we're pleased to release a newly molded 2nd edition with a new finish and packaging. The Alert Idol is hand-cast, hand-finished, and hand-stained to acheive the effect of an algae-covered relic. It comes wrapped in netting that carries with it the clammy scent and feel of the sea.

The Ravens barely beat the Cleveland Browns. Almost everyone predicted a blowout, but the Ravens survived. At this point in the season, that's OK.

Ravens middle linebacker Ray Lewis tried to blame it on "lane integrity," but the bottom line was that the Ravens got their butts kicked up front.
The Browns simply gutted the Ravens in the middle, running right at Lewis and tackles Haloti Ngata and Kelly Gregg. That doesn't happen often, and hopefully this was an aberration. The Ravens, though, did make some adjustments by using more run blitzes in the second half. They also got a strong game from tackle Brandon McKinney.
If the Browns had had a few more playmakers, this would have been a Ravens loss.
"We kind of hit them in the mouth because they are the type of team that thrives on stopping the run and getting you in third-and-longs," Browns left tackle Joe Thomas said. "We kind of had them on their heels. They were searching for answers."
That's because the season is still young, and the Ravens are a work in progress.
Penalties persist
Apparently, some of the Ravens players didn't get the memo from coach John Harbaugh about stupid penalties.
Receiver Derrick Mason got a delay-of-game penalty for chucking the ball in the air, and safety Tom Zbikowski and left offensive tackle Michael Oher drew unsportsmanlike-conduct penalties.
Even after the game, Oher walked toward the Browns' sideline as if he still wanted to settle a dispute with Cleveland defensive end Robaire Smith.
"You know, sometimes in the heat of battle, tempers flare, but you have to understand what gets called and what doesn't," said Harbaugh, who drew a $15,000 fine from the NFL last week after making contact with an official.
This team needs a shot of discipline.
Suggs' sharp move
One player who does get it is Ravens defensive end-linebacker Terrell Suggs. On a third-and-28 from the Browns' 2-yard line, Suggs was close to sacking quarterback Seneca Wallace in the end zone but let Wallace loose even though he was draped around the bottom half of Wallace's body.
"I had him but decided not to put myself or my team in a bogus or stupid situation, not with the way they are calling things around here" Suggs said. Are you listening, Mr. Oher?
McKinney impresses
It's not only Terrence Cody's knee injury that is keeping him on the bench, but also the play of McKinney. After starting defensive end Cory Redding went down with a concussion at halftime, McKinney stepped in and played extremely well.

User Reviews
The community thinks...
Luxury Hybrid by J from Chi-town on 03/14/2014. Trim: 2012 Infiniti M Hybrid 35h, Owned 2 years.
Pros: I have driven this car for about 40,000 miles. It is extremely comfortable with all the amenities you would expect from a luxury car. This car replaced a Mini Cooper, which average about the same gas mileage(averaging 29.2 overall), but wasn't even close to as comfortable. Bonus is that the Infiniti is even quicker. As a matter of fact this car is extremely fast when needed. It is also very good in the snow and I haven't had to fit it with snow tires. Using the snow mode is all it needs. The fit and finish is very high quality.
Cons: The transition from electric to gas power can be abrupt and not as seamless as a pure gas powered car. But it is not any different than a Prius I had for 150,000 miles. The brakes are also the same as the Prius in that they are not as easy to modulate as a pure gas powered car. For some reason Infiniti recommends oil changes every 3750 miles, which I find unusual after having the Mini go as long as 10,000-12,000miles between changes. Minor problems have been audio unit with Nav was replaced due to strange glitches, but it was under warranty. Other than that just normal maintenance.
Overall review: If you are looking for a luxury automobile that has great gas mileage and very high performance then this is the car. Again the transition between gas and electric is occasionally not seamless, but overall it is very satisfying to have a quick off the line vehicle that has the gas mileage of a much smaller car.

Eric Paslay is having a very happy holiday season now that his latest single, "Friday Night," has hit the country top 10. Though he's written #1 hits for Jake Owen , Eli Young Band and Love and Theft in the past few years, Eric has never had a song he recorded himself in the top 10, until now. His two previous singles failed to catch on at radio, so the success of "Friday Night" is a welcome change of pace for Eric as an artist.
He tells ABC News Radio, "It is wild. I think I'm learning how I feel about it. You know, you kind of guard your heart and your dreams and your feelings so much in this business, 'cause a lot of times it doesn't pan out."
Another one of Eric's big dreams will come true February 4, 2014 when his self-titled debut album lands in stores.
"I'm smiling on the inside out knowing that my album's coming out," Eric says, "and it's all because of 'Friday Night' doing so well with radio, and thanks to radio for playing it."
Eric hooks up with Eli Young Band for a run of shows starting December 27 in Robinsonville, MS.

6 Ways to Treat a Blocked Artery
Arteriosclerosis, the disease responsible for the sticky plaque buildup on arterial walls, affects as many as 12 million Americans. Unfortunately, many are unaware that their arteries are blocked, and left untreated, the plaque-filled lesions rupture and create blood clots that lead to a heart attack or a stroke. But if you are vigilant and able to catch a blockage, you can reverse the damage and avoid a major coronary event. Here are some ways you and your doctor can reduce the plaque clogging your arteries.
Chelation: We're listing this therapy only to caution against it. The American Heart Association, as well as other medical organizations, is opposed to this procedure. Scientific studies of its efficiacy have concluded that it provides no benefit. Also, EDTA, the therapy's active ingredient, can cause kidney failure, bone marrow depression, low blood pressure, cardiac arrhythmias, allergic reactions, or respiratory arrest.
Diet, exercise, and lifestyle changes: Once your doctor has determined that you suffer from heart disease, the first thing he or she will likely recommend is that you overhaul your way of life by avoiding foods full of saturated fat, eating more fruits and vegetables, exercising regularly, and quitting bad habits such as smoking-a major contributor to plaque buildup. Fruits, vegetables, omega-3 fatty acids, and exercise all increase your levels of high-density lipoproteins (HDL), which help remove excess bad cholesterol from the bloodstream.
Pharmaceutical intervention: There are several drugs on the market that can reduce plaque buildup in your arteries, and which one is right for you is a matter for you and your doctor to decide. Last year, a study presented at a scientific symposium sponsored by the Cardiovascular Research Foundation reported that olmesartan, a drug used to treat high blood pressure, may significantly reduce the amount of plaque buildup.[1] And in 2006, an article appearing in the Journal of the American Medical Association claimed that high doses of Rosuvastatin successfully removed plaque from arterial walls.[2]
Angioplasty: Performed 1,314,000 times in 2006, this procedure opens clogged arteries by expanding the arterial walls with the temporary insertion of a small balloon. A metal stent is often inserted afterward to keep the artery unobstructed.
Atherectomy: By using a burr or a laser inserted through the femoral artery, an atherectomy breaks up calcified plaque into microscopic pieces that are then removed from the bloodstream by processes controlled by the liver, lungs, and spleen. An angioplasty and/or stenting may serve as a follow-up to the procedure. Risks include arterial injury and heart attack.
Coronary bypass: In some cases, like when several arteries leading to your heart are blocked or a previous angioplasty or other types of intervention have proved unsuccessful, this major surgical procedure is called for. Taking a healthy blood vessel from your arm, leg, chest, or abdomen, a heart surgeon creates a bypass over a diseased or blocked area of your coronary arteries so that a normal blood flow can be restored to your heart.

We're learning more about an elderly woman suffering from dementia who this weekend walked out of her assisted living facility on Tucson's east side.
Guillermina Lopez Leon, 71, was found the next day, on Sunday, in the desert not too far from her home.
Leon was supposed to be under 24-hour supervision but her caregiver says they were distracted with unloading groceries from their car when she slipped away.
"The car was there. We were bringing groceries back and forth," said Ruth Dempsey, the owner of Dempsey Adult Care Home.
Dempsey recalls what led up to the nerve-racking search for Leon. They thought she was in the bathroom but 15 minutes later, they realized she had walked away.
"I say, 'Where is Mina?' So, we started looking for her and we could not find her. We look around before we call 911," said Dempsey.
Dempsey Adult Care Home, located near North Houghton Road and East Catalina Highway, has alarm sensors on every door in the house and even on the outside.
But a padlock was unlocked for just a short time while Leon escaped.
Dempsey said, "It was very stressful because we care for our people."
The Pima County Sheriff's Department, with the help of neighborhood watch volunteers scoured the area Saturday night, desperately searching for Leon who is at risk because she suffers from dementia and is a diabetic.
Crews searched until 1 a.m. but that wasn't good enough for Dempsey.
"I get my big lamp, and I start looking because they look this way whenever," Dempsey said. "So, I went myself looking. I no sleep. Believe me, I went looking for my lady."
Her bulb burned out and she was left in the dark, having to call 911 a second time. This time, to rescue herself.
They found her, she got back home but says she couldn't sleep.
"I sit down waiting and praying because I care for my people. People in this job are here because they do it from their heart," said Dempsey.
The next morning, the good news came.
"One of the neighbors located the female," said Tom Peine, a spokesperson for Pima County Sheriff's Department. "She was lying in the desert and had apparently been there all night long."
Leon made through the night unscathed but Dempsey says she's too much of a risk. So she doesn't want her back.
Not having any family, Leon is staying at the hospital. A scary search turned into a good ending.
In November, Leon walked away from another adult care facility in the city of Tucson and was found a short time later.

Fatal Figures are the members of The Blowtops latest, a band I'm just getting to know also on Big Neck Records. These guys are making it happen in way way western New York where it's winter six months a year. Buffalo was the big city we would occasionally drive to to either go across the border to drink in Canada or go to Darien Lake and see a huge show. I played with someone from Buffalo who would tell me about all kinds of cool shit that was happening and I imagined living there one day. Their latest builds on that garage intensity with some hardcore influences while keeping that raw, live sound.

"Holy cow, they're even bigger than I remembered," exclaimed Leila Henkle as Jeri Halperin delivered the mega-sandwiches to her and her husband, Bill. The Montezuma, Iowa, retirees had dropped by for lunch on their way home from an appointment in Iowa City, about 20 miles east.
"Every time we go past here (on Interstate Highway 80), Bill says, 'We should have gone to Oxford to get a tenderloin.'"
Unable to finish her sandwich, Leila departed clutching a to-go box containing her flavorful leftovers.
"I've never felt in competition with chain restaurants," Ben Halperin noted. "I feel more in competition with grandma."
Where to find 'em
Augusta and Goldie's are minutes off Interstate Highway 80. Oxford is about four hours west of Chicago; Prairie City is about 90 minutes farther west. Breitbach's works better for diners heading for Dubuque/Galena.
The Augusta Restaurant (319-828-2252, augustarestaurant.net), 101 S. Augusta Ave., Oxford, is open Wednesday through Sunday. The pork tenderloin sells for $10. Add freshly made sweet potato chips for 2 bucks more.
Goldie's (515-994-3190, goldiesicecreamshoppe.com), 304 W. Second St., Prairie City, is open seven days a week. The basic sandwich is $5.98. With a cheeseburger or sausage added, it's $8.30.
Breitbach's Country Dining (563-552-2220, breitbachscountrydining.com), 563 Balltown Road, Balltown, is closed Mondays through winter. The tenderloin on the lunch menu goes for $6.25. Toss in some cheese curds for $5.50. By the way, the place has been in the same family since 1862.

TIA is the not-for-profit trade association representing all businesses involved in creating and bringing toys and youth entertainment products to kids of all ages.
June 19, 2012 | The Toy Industry Foundation's (TIF) Play Connects program invites Toy Industry Association (TIA) member companies from across the nation to nominate charities in their own communities to receive grant funding. In 2011, four nominated charities were selected to receive $10,000 each to help at-risk children through play, education and mentorship programs. Over the course of the summer, Toy News Tuesday will be profiling the charities that received grants to showcase how the funds are making an important difference in children's lives.
Nominated to receive TIF grant funding by Becker Associates, LLC, $10,000 grant winner the Boys & Girls Club of Stamford, Connecticut is a dedicated youth facility that has an annual membership of more than 1,000 Stamford-area children, with 200-300 kids attending the club each day. Since 1927, the organization has offered after-school and youth development programming for children aged 6-18, inspiring confidence and a sense of belonging. Currently, fifty-three percent of the kids at Stamford B&G Club live in a single-parent household, and 95% percent of these children come from low-income households.
In late May, representatives from TIF and TIA visited the club to learn more about "Project Learn" – a B&G Club program that is utilizing the Play Connects funds from TIF to improve the academic standing of club kids by exposing them to alternative learning methods that build self-esteem and improve attitudes towards schooling. [View photos from the visit]
"While most after-school programs in the area are strictly recreational, Project Learn teaches children through play," said Marisa Medina, Toy Industry Foundation Manager. "During our visit we were excited to see how the grant funding they received from us has been used to enhance the Boys and Girls Club's successful program. The children were happy, engaged, and learning together while playing with fun toys and games."
The program's alternative learning methods include a daily homework "power hour" to complete and review assignments along with the following high yield learning activities that vary depending on the day of the week:
"The Play Connects grant has provided our children with a fun and engaging learning experience that supported our Project Learn initiatives," said Mike Cotela, Executive Director of the Stamford B&G Club. "Each day after school, children are eager to participate in the Game Club as a way to improve their academic learning.

I Cross My Heart Ring
I have used these heart beads for several projects but it didn't occur to me until recently that they would look great as a woven ring. Playing with the placement of 4 10mm heart beads, I discovered they made a cross shape when the points were turned inward. In order to anchor and elevate this design, I used a sterling silver tube and 3mm Swarovski crystal bicones. The result is a romantic ring that can be made in a variety of color combinations!

Beautiful ring. Please put video back up. Spent lots of time trying to locate hearts, found them, but no video to use to make the ring. Have trouble trying to follow directions from instruction papers. Thanks, Donna

I was going through the Projects and instructions and I went into Archives, I don''''t know why, but I did. I saw this project and wondered why it had gone to the archives, it is way cute and with Valentines Day on it''''s way I would think that you would bring anything heart''''s to the forefront, i.e. this pattern and the materials. I would love to have these instructions, are they on You Tube?

We spend our time at betaworks in three areas. Structured as a company, rather than a fund, we're afforded the flexibility to build, to invest, and to buy. Most of our time is spent building new products at the studio and scaling our existing core companies. This is why we identify first and foremost as makers, builders, and operators. So far, 2012 has been an insanely active year for us at betaworks. We have launched new products like Tapestry and Swirl, acquired and re-launched Digg, acquired a significant stake in bloglovin', and closed more seed investments than any year in our history.
As John outlined in a blog post over two years ago, we do seed investments in order to create an ecosystem of founders and companies that share our vision for the future of the real-time social internet. In betaworking for almost five years now, we've made almost 100 investments in the category and have seen a tremendous amount of value emerge in the network that we've built.
We believe that the real-time social web represents a massive change in the way companies will be built and operate, and the way in which people interact and communicate with one another. We continue to be fascinated by products that are social, data-driven and design oriented, as well as extraordinary entrepreneurs that have the guts and commitment to build something big and different and often times terrifying.
In 2012, we're on pace to be our most active yet, having already made 20 new investments (several not yet public) in early-stage companies. We pride ourselves on being "first money in," making investments in entrepreneurs with very early betas (or alphas) because it's at this stage where we think we have the most to add. We understand this awkward period in a company's lifecycle because we do it ourselves all the time, building and breaking products that are every bit as experimental as the companies and entrepreneurs we invest in.
The year is not over yet. In the next few months, we'll have a few new things to announce that we think you'll love. So stay tuned, more soon.

Hormone Therapy and Breast Cancer Risk Following Prophylactic Surgery
Women with mutations in the BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes can reduce their risk for breast and ovarian cancer by having their ovaries removed, but then must decide whether to use hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for menopause symptoms triggered by that surgery. Fears that using HRT could compromise their reduced risk of breast cancer may now be diminished, because of results published early online in the Journal of Clinical Oncology.
Researchers at 13 cancer centers in North America and Europe identified a prospective cohort of 462 women with BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene mutations, 155 of whom had bilateral prophylactic oophorectomy (BPO). Compared with 307 mutation carriers who kept one or both ovaries, the BPO patients' breast cancer risk was reduced by 60 percent.
This reduced risk reflects what other studies have found, and explains why women with the mutations - as many as 90 percent of whom may develop breast or ovarian cancer if not treated - are advised by clinicians to undergo some form of BPO after completing childbearing.
But the researchers found that, among the women who had BPO, those who did receive short-term HRT had the same breast cancer risk reduction as those who did not.
Though recent findings suggest an increased risk of breast and endometrial cancer from HRT - especially estrogen and progesterone used together - no such effect appeared after short-term use in this study, with one-third of the controls and 16 percent of BPO patients followed thus far for at least 5 years. "Questions still remain, however, about longer-term use," said Dr. Sheila Prindiville, of NCI's Center for Cancer Research.
Dr. Timothy R. Rebbeck of the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine and colleagues wrote that "adoption of effective cancer risk reduction interventions is critical" for this population. They have formed the Prevention and Observation of Surgical Endpoints (PROSE) Study Group to develop and test clinical interventions for women with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations.
During more than a decade of genetic testing, many thousands of women have been identified as BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation carriers. An earlier PROSE study found bilateral oophorectomy combined with mastectomy to be an effective preventive treatment, but also raised quality-of-life issues over whether women were prepared to accept such a drastic strategy.
Therefore, clinicians are trying to discover alternative ways to reduce cancer risk in this population. They know from previous studies that surgery to remove both ovaries reduces the risk of ovarian cancer by about 90 percent and breast cancer by about half, and in this study by 60 percent.
Yet some premenopausal women decline BPO, fearing the prospect of surgically induced menopause without HRT to mitigate symptoms. Thus, both patient perceptions and clinical findings about the impact of HRT on breast cancer risk are important.
This study demonstrates that short-term HRT does not adversely affect the breast cancer risk reduction from BPO in premenopausal women. There were not enough women on HRT to produce definitive findings on the question of opposing estrogen with progesterone, and Dr. Prindiville noted that "it is important to try to quantify that risk."

While in the Fort Myers area of Florida, I heard about the burrowing owls in nearby Cape Coral. These are little tiny owls only about 6-9 inches tall that live in burrows in the ground.
I have learned that doing research is essential to getting good photographs, especially if you have a limited amount of time. Searching online I found out that many people had spotted the owls in a field next to a parking lot at the library. Now there's somewhere I never would have looked! I knew they were smart, but owls at the library? That seems a little too Winnie-the-Pooh but who am I to question a cliche?
Local citizens want to protect the little owls so they put t-stakes around any burrows they find so people will not walk on them and collapse the burrows, and it gives the owls a little perch at the same time.
I went to the library parking lot and saw the field and the stakes, but no owls.
A local fellow was out for his morning walk and I asked him about the owls. He said he saw them almost every day. He asked where we were from and was very interested in our trip. We had a great conversation about travel and living life to the fullest before he went on his way.
A couple of minutes later, we heard some whistling from down the street and there he was waving his arms around to get our attention. He had come across some owls.
As always, you can click on any of the images to view larger versions.
It is hard to get a sense of scale in these photographs since you cannot really put another object in the frame. Just imagine him not much bigger than your hand. In person, the owls are so endearing with their compact bodies and huge yellow eyes. This one was well camouflaged in the dry grass.
To make these images, I approached the burrows very slowly with my 400mm lens handheld. I first made some images looking down on the owl inside the burrow to capture the environment and just get a quick shot in case he took off. After he got used to me I went a little closer and got closer to the ground to be at eye level with him.
In order to make a greater distinction between the owl and the background, I darkened the background grass in post-processing.
Here is another owl I found in a different location. This one was a bit easier because the owl was sitting up on one of the t-stakes and there were some dark green trees in the background that nicely contrasted with the owl's coloring.
I wish I could have made an image with more than one owl in the frame, but they would not pose for me that way. In any case I felt lucky to have met them.

Very good! I'm amazed at your steady hand, getting such excellent focus handholding with 400 mm – well done! Very cute owls. Do you know what sort of sound they make (if any) at night? I'm guessing it might be quite different from our "who-cooks-for you" barred owls.
Laurie MacBride recently posted..Mosaic of Green: the Wet Coast
The Burrowing Owl is diurnal, so we get to hear them both day and night. The most familiar call is a "coo-coo" sound similar to a mourning dove. The mating call is a variation of this and quite difficult to describe, and is done by the male at night. They have quite a few other vocalizations some of which are given to "yell" at the kids. When they want the juveniles back in the burrow in a hurry, they have a very distinct alarm call.
In addition, the juveniles make a sound like a rattlesnake, that often discourages prey from entering the burrow.
I have a family of Burrowing Owls living on my front lawn, so I get to hear them quite well. Some where I read that they are the most vocal of the owl species.
I just love the one in its burrow, Anne, but they're all fabulous shots, and it's wonderful that you shot these by gaining trust first.
When you write to Laurie, send her this link to the owl's call:
Beautiful shots, Anne. You got some great expressions and compositions. And the 400 is an incredible achievement. As usual, I'm sharing.

Those last two images, in particular, are superb. Pin sharp. Tremendous work, Anne.
LensScaper recently posted..The scalloped river
Cape Coral is home to the largest population of the Florida species of the Burrowing Owl in the State (of Florida). Since the Florida species is only found in Florida, by default we have the largest population in the world.
They certainly are endearing! And with and estimated 1000 nesting pairs(based on a study done 10 years ago) in the City, it would have been more surprising if you had not seen one rather than your finding one!
You did a great job of photographing them.
These are such sweet photos! I've always wanted to photograph them, and I'm here in FL!

Penguins top Blue Jackets to take 3-2 series leadThe Associated Press | April 27,2014AP Photo
Pittsburghs Jussi Jokinen (36) gets his stick on a loose puck and pokes it in for a goal past Columbus Blue Jackets goalie Sergei Bobrovsky during the third period Saturdays NHL playoff game in Pittsburgh.PITTSBURGH Jussi Jokinen scored the go-ahead goal in the third period and the Pittsburgh Penguins topped the Columbus Blue Jackets 3-1 on Saturday night to take a 3-2 lead in their Eastern Conference playoff series.
Chris Kunitz and Kris Letang also scored for Pittsburgh, which has the upstart Blue Jackets on the verge of elimination with an opportunity to close out the series Monday during Game 6 in Columbus.
It hasnt been easy for the Penguins, a team considered by many a Stanley Cup contender. Columbus, which began the series searching for its first playoff win in franchise history, twice rallied to stun the heavily favored Penguins.
Boone Jenner scored the lone goal for Columbus, which played its first Game 5 in franchise history.
Penguins goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury recovered from a game-changing gaffe in Game 4 for the victory on Saturday, making 23 saves. Fleury is 4-1 in his last five games after a playoff overtime loss. Sergei Bobrovsky stopped 49 shots for the Blue Jackets, who were outshot 51-24.
Penguins captain Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin still havent scored through five playoff games. Crosby, who led the league in scoring with 104 points, hasnt scored in his last 10 playoff games overall, while Malkin has gone nine without a goal.
The teams were tied at 1 entering the third, but Jokinen touched a backhand rebound past Bobrovsky along the far post 6:16 into the period.
Letang scored an empty-netter with 1:01 to play to seal it.
Both sides endured wild momentum swings through the first four games, all decided by a 4-3 margin where the winning team rallied from a 3-1 deficit every time for the first time in league history. The Penguins twice had a chance to take a two-game lead in the series, while Columbus put the Pittsburgh in a two-goal hole two times only to come up short.
The Penguins were seconds away from taking a 3-1 lead during the best-of-seven series in Game 5 when Fleury misplayed a puck behind the net, leading to Brandon Dubinskys tying goal that forced overtime and Nick Folignos innocent looking wrist shot from the blue line that evaded Fleury and evened the series.
Jenner helped the Blue Jackets score first on Saturday with a power-play goal midway through the opening period. Fleury sprawled to cover a rebound at the top of the crease, but the puck came loose and Jenner jammed a shot home along the near post.
Kunitz tied it with a second-period power-play goal, corralling a bouncing rebound in front of the net and backhanding it past Bobrovsky.
