In this web seminar, we will focus on common themes such as misbranding and adulteration found in warning letters issued by the FDA to pharmaceutical, medical device, and biotechnology companies. Specifically we will review the concepts of misbranding and adulteration in detail, and provide examples of where compliance issues commonly arise in these areas. We will discuss best practices for responding to warning letters, as well as strategies that can be implemented to help avoid them. Whether you are new to the warning letter experience or you are working on issues in response to one, you will find this web seminar useful.
12:00 PM - 2:30 PM Eastern
This web seminar is designed for participants that are sponsors/CROs and research site representatives preparing for a research site FDA inspection. From audit readiness to action item resolution, each site faces its own unique challenges. This course will prepare you and your site for expectations from the FDA and provide concrete steps you can take to prepare before, during and after the inspection.
3:00 PM - 4:30 PM Eastern
In this web seminar, we will discuss how to write effective monitoring visit reports for medical device studies. Participants will learn the purpose for monitoring investigational sites and the importance of documenting the visit. We will examine the requirements for the documentation in the Code of Federal Regulations and International Conference on Harmonization Guidelines, and discuss how the report is used by various stakeholders. Tools will be provided to enable learners to scrutinize various sections of the report to better document what was accomplished on the visit. This documentation supports the adequate monitoring obligation expected by regulatory authorities.
Have you ever wondered what clinical trials are and how they are conducted? This web seminar is designed to answer those basic questions. We will look at how drugs progress from discovery to testing in humans, and learn what it takes to obtain approval to treat a disease or condition. We will discuss the similarities and differences between drug and medical device development. Finally, we will review how Good Clinical Practice (GCP) is designed to protect clinical trial participants and ensure that the information obtained during a clinical trial is accurate and reliable.
12:00 PM - 1:30 PM Eastern
Non-compliance at research sites requires corrective action planning to address the deficiencies. The corrective action plan should include more than just the identification of the deficiency and intervention chosen to address the issue. Effective corrective action planning includes other important components that lead to promoting improved performance for future activities: Ultimately improved human subject protections and data integrity. Lack of these components can lead to repeated non-compliance and in some cases to rejection of corrective action plans by regulatory authorities.
1:00 PM - 3:00 PM Eastern
Although monitoring plans are not defined or specifically required by FDA regulations or the ICH Guideline for Good Clinical Practice, both organizations endorse the use of this tool in a Quality Systems management approach to clinical research. The traditional approach to monitoring plan development has relied upon reinforcing SOP-mandated monitoring activities with little focus on project and/or protocol-specific monitoring needs. This web seminar provides participants with concepts and templates to set up a monitoring plan that supports unique project risks and links to valuable data regarding investigative site and Clinical Research Associate (CRA) performance. Suggestions for development of monitoring plans for a risk-based approach to monitoring are also provided in this session.
The Common Technical Document (CTD) format is now the required format for all marketing applications in the U.S., EU, Japan, Canada, and Australia. Clinical Trial Applications (CTAs), the required format of INDs in most countries, are required to be in the CTD format. Currently, the U.S. does not require INDs to be in the CTD format, but rather the traditional format (per regulations in 21 CRF 312.23). However, since all marketing applications are required in the CTD format, it is more efficient to start the IND in the CTD format. If you use the traditional format, the IND and all amendment information must be converted to the CTD format prior to marketing application submission. This conversion time can impact the timeline for marketing application submission, so why not plan ahead for a successful marketing application and start the IND in the CTD format?
12:30 PM - 3:30 PM Eastern
This web seminar provides an overview of the drug development process. Included are the Good Clinical Practice (GCP), Good Laboratory Practice (GLP), and Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) regulations and how they interact in the drug development process.
2:30 PM - 4:00 PM Eastern
Medical writing has its own standard practices and idiosyncrasies. Knowing what to write, how to format, and how to navigate corporate processes can require a big learning curve. This web seminar will give learners a broad overview of writing practices, formatting, working with tables and figures, and communicating effectively. Practical applications of these skills will be described as they apply to writing all types of documents for submission to global regulatory authorities, including protocols, clinical study reports, investigator's brochures, data management plans, statistical analysis plans, documents for modules in the Common Technical Document (CTD) format, and briefing books. In addition, real-life examples of strategies for generating a great document each time by understanding the what and why of the different documents will be presented.
9:30 AM - 11:30 AM Eastern
Lack of adequate and/or accurate source documentation has been noted as a common deficiency in inspection findings of Clinical Investigators. There is significant variability between stakeholder requirements regarding source documentation per study, including sponsor to sponsor, sponsor to site, etc. The creation and use of source document worksheets and the use of the Case Report Form (CRF) as the original source have raised a lot of industry debate. These issues and more regarding adequate and accurate source documentation to meet the requirements of regulatory agencies essential documentation standards will be presented and discussed.
12:00 PM - 3:00 PM Eastern
The Clinical Study Report (CSR) is a critical document in the drug development and regulatory submission process. This web seminar presents the basic tools required to generate CSRs for the pharmaceutical industry. Participants will learn the elements of the CSR and the appendices, methods for turning the protocol and statistical outputs into one cohesive document, the basics of writing and preparing a document for submission, and the guidances to follow for reference.
This web seminar provides an overview of what is required to take a new drug from research to market. We will begin by reviewing the contents of an IND, and then follow the process of an IND submission. From there, the contents and approval process of an NDA submission will be discussed. This web seminar will also provide a foundation for those who require an understanding of the FDA new drug approval process, and help attendees become familiar with the regulatory landscape in which INDs and NDAs are developed and approved.
5:00 PM - 8:00 PM Eastern
In today's outsourcing environment, the need for strong project management skills is greater than ever. This comprehensive hands-on 30-hour course is designed to provide the tools necessary to become a strong project manager in clinical research. Whether you are looking to become a clinical research project manager, you are already in an entry-level project manager role or you have become an "accidental" project manager by assignment, this program will provide you with project management skills development as well as the necessary tools and processes required to successfully manage projects in clinical research settings. The course includes an emphasis on the need to anticipate, understand, and implement detailed project management activities in a proactive manner. Discussions, exercises, and tools are practically oriented with an emphasis given to practical application of key concepts and principles.
The basis and success of any drug or device development program is the clinical trial protocol. Clinical trials conducted under an IND or IDE cannot begin without a protocol, and yet there is variability between companies and individuals on how to approach writing this critical document. Clinical trials and entire programs have failed because the protocol was not scientifically sound. Knowing how to effectively research and write a clinical trial protocol is essential to a compound achieving IRB and market approval.
This application-based web seminar covers advanced concepts and challenges encountered in the application of Good Clinical Practice (GCP). During this highly interactive course, participants will review and discuss cases that include GCP challenges in topic areas such as IRB/IEC approval, informed consent, drug accountability and reconciliation, SUSAR submissions, communications with ethics committees and health authorities, as well as the management of investigational product. Cases are based on actual industry examples, and participants are expected to solve cases by applying Root Cause Analysis (RCA) and Corrective and Preventive Action (CAPA) principles, which are briefly reviewed.
Managing compliance in the research industry is vital to successful clinical trials. Regulatory authorities expect that all stakeholders identify non-compliance, intervene, and then evaluate the effectiveness of the intervention. Without root cause analysis, interventions cannot be effectively identified and designed. This web seminar will present the scientific concepts of root cause analysis and apply them specifically in the clinical trial setting. Root cause analysis is invaluable for all stakeholders in clinical research, the sponsor, CRO, site, and Institutional Review Board (IRB).
12:00 PM - 2:00 PM Eastern
This web seminar presents an overview of the patient recruitment arena, and focuses on strategies for successful clinical trials including: Systematic protocol feasibility, pre-screening approaches, insourcing and outsourcing options, and social media considerations. Included in the program are discussions for handling tough populations and the ethics of participant recruitment in clinical trials.
Outsourcing in clinical development continues to grow and so do the challenges of ensuring quality outcomes. Managing a vendor vs. micro-managing a vendor will be discussed with some practices to improve the relationship. Recommendations for sponsor oversight practices are discussed with a review of helpful tools.
1:00 PM - 2:30 PM Eastern
The European Medicines Agency (EMA) and U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) collaborated and performed official joint Good Clinical Practice (GCP) inspections of sponsors, CROs, and investigational sites between 2009 through 2011. Those collaborations have continued into 2014. In this web seminar, we will review the Report on the Pilot EMA-FDA GCP Initiative, and discuss the similarities and differences between EMA and FDA inspectors and inspection processes conducted over the last five years using recent examples of joint inspections. Clarification will also be provided for reporting of Serious Breaches in the UK along with a review of common inspection findings.
Principal Investigators (PIs) are required to provide adequate oversight of all clinical research activities at the site, whether the activity is conducted by the PI, by study team members, or by applicable third parties. Adequate oversight encompasses many activities and obligations, such as ensuring regulatory compliance, staff training, and subject medical care. In this web seminar, we will discuss the regulatory requirements and guidance regarding adequate investigator oversight and appropriate delegation of study tasks, review documentation requirements, and determine strategies for appropriate delegation of tasks.
This web seminar will provide attendees with a general overview of oncology clinical trials and their distinct characteristics. We will review how oncology clinical trials differ from those in other therapeutic areas, with a special emphasis on the unique challenges of monitoring oncology clinical trials. Distinctions will be drawn between early and later phase trials. Attention will be paid to Adverse Event (AE) and Serious Adverse Event (SAE) reporting. All aspects of oncology clinical trials and how to successfully monitor them will also be discussed.
The primary role of the FDA or other regulatory authority is to protect public health and ensure that devices are safe and effective. This is done by systematically reviewing all data to ensure it is valid and obtained under proper conditions. The FDA has authority to conduct inspections according to the Code of Federal Regulations. This web seminar examines the types of inspections conducted by the FDA and the mechanics of the inspection of a device sponsor as well as an investigational site. Participants will learn the most common audit findings and possible regulatory actions. Several FDA Warning Letters will be reviewed to demonstrate the thoroughness of a regulatory review. Tips will be provided for the management of the inspection activities both during and after the inspection.
HIPAA Team Training has been designed as a course presenting concepts and terminology of HIPAA specific to conducting clinical trials. The web seminar presents the core elements with methodologies for blending the concepts into established clinical trial best practices. The focus of the course is to train sponsors/CROs and site clinical researchers HIPAA concepts for later application in day-to-day roles.
This web seminar presents the elements of the informed consent document and the components of the process. Industry specific scenarios are presented to reinforce important concepts, for example: Evaluating and documenting capacity to consent, voluntariness, when a HIPAA authorization is required, withdrawal of consent, and more. Discussions also include reported poor regulatory performance regarding informed consent, and successful solutions for practices that increase the protection of human subjects in clinical research.
12:30 PM - 2:30 PM Eastern
Teams have become much more complex in the past 10 years. In the past, a team would be comprised of similar individuals in the same location driving on a fairly stable course towards its objectives. These tenets are no longer true. Trends are driving the need for more flexible, highly skilled teams.
Participants will explore the principles of project management and apply project management tools to ensure the success of their clinical research projects. Participants will learn to develop a project charter, a work breakdown structure, a risk assessment and contingency plan, a process improvement plan, as well as how to lead without authority. Each participant will leave the session with tools and checklists to apply to their projects.
The ability to negotiate effectively is a core competency for all clinical research professionals. Yet many people find negotiating to be an intimidating experience. Take this interactive web seminar and dramatically improve your ability to negotiate in any situation. With specific examples and real world case studies drawn from clinical research, you will be able to immediately implement the skills you learn with ease. This web seminar will provide a rich learning experience in implementing negotiation best practices.
Observational studies in the biopharmaceutical and medical device industries encompass various designs and purposes, including post-approval safety studies, product or disease registries, pregnancy registries, medical chart reviews, and cohort studies. This web seminar offers practical approaches to the management of observational studies, focusing on issues and aspects that occur commonly, differ from clinical trial management, and are key to program success.

Reviews of Doro Nawas
They do not necessarily represent the views of Expert Africa.
Doro Nawas review
I have mixed feelings about Doro Nawas. The accommodation itself was by far the best we had i.e. the rooms were huge, well equiped, beautiful decor etc..and I loved the outdoor shower! But I found the staff almost unfriendly and when we asked for things e.g. ice in our drinks, butter for our toast, I got the impression it was a hassle for them.
I was also left with a bad taste in my mouth due to the cost of their activites. As I mentioned with Kulala Desert Lodge, I find the camps under the Wilderness Safari group very expensive. But where as I found the dune trip with Kulala worth it for what was included, I didn't with Doro Nawas. Given how cheap things are locally N$1,305 for the elephant trip was silly.
The main reason for going to this lodge is to see the desert elephants, but you can't drive yourself, so you have to join their trip, so I guess they can charge what they like. It was basically a game drive, and the independant lodges we visited generally charged around N$200 for a game drive. The lodge is in a lovely area, and it was great to see the elephants, but the cost of it spoilt the experience.
Doro Nawas review
We only stayed one night at Doro Nawas, essentially as a stop-over on the long journey between Swakopmund and Desert Rhino Camp so we did'nt have time to do any walks, drives or activities. The location, on a hill with 360 degree views is certainly spectacular. Had a very similar feel to Sossus Dune Lodge (see our review) with the same downsides. Not a place we would personally go to again.Read more about the whole safari
Doro Nawas review
Incredible views. Very attentive staff who persevered with solving our broken safe.
Excursions very expensive.
Doro Nawas review
This is a lovely and very unusual lodge - the setting is stunning and very unexpected!
The staff were more than helpful and there was a lot of flexibility in the type and time of activities. The food was nice and we particularly enjoyed 3pm tea and cake!!
The singing and dancing by the staff was wonderful and gave a very authentic african feel to our stay!
The stars here were amazing and the fact that someone is on hand to help with stargazing was great!!
Doro Nawas review
A fantatic drive to get to Dora ! Nawas, we visited Burnt mountain, the organ pipes and Twyfelfontein on the way all worth a visit.
Our rooms were fantasic with balcones at the front looking out towards mountains and also steps upto a roof top balcony.
The main part of the lodge looks like a fortress and of an evening you can go to the roof top and look at the stars, you can also wheel your bed out onto the balcony of your room, we did do this and the stars were amazing, I must admit though we did not last longer than 30mins or so as there were still mosquito's and lots of other creepy crawlies trying to join us, the experience is a must though.
We went on an eve excursion to track Elephants and although we did not see them, there were lots of tracks and the whole experience was fantastic, we even had to get out and push the jeep as we got stuck in sand, it was just so exciting, great fun.
Doro Nawas review
See previous comments. I would add that the guiding was good, but not of the very high standard experienced at e.g. Okonjima or Hobatere.Read more about the whole safari
Doro Nawas review
The regular manager went on leave the day we arrived. We were disappointed by the level of attention to detail of the management. Cleanliness of the bungalows left something to be desired. Staff were friendly but not as well trained as at e.g Okonjima. The atmosphere was a little too laid back and the food was disappointing.Read more about the whole safari
Doro Nawas review
fabulous new facility
sites to see nearby were less exciting that the phenomenal ones we experienced near Sossuslvei, Swapkopmund, and Ongave Lodge
Seeing desert elephants at Doro Nawas
Most amazing location. The rooms are vast and extremely well appointed with the possibility of wheeling the enormous bed on to the huge private verandah to sleep under the stars (we didn't as there was slight rain the nights we stayed.
Graham was ill and could not leave the room and the staff were most solicitous and concerned. He said it was the best room to recover in. I went on an early morning desert elephant search alone with an excellent guide, Lister. He was great company and very patient and after a few hours we came upon two groups of elephants who had come together. It was fabulous being so close to these majestic creatures who totally ignored us and we spent a magical hour and a half just observing them.
Doro Nawas review
We arrived on a stiflingly hot afternoon to be greeted by cold towels and Fiona's beaming smile - don't think she stopped smiling all the time we were there! All the staff were friendly and gave the impression they were delighted to see us. Joe (the manager) spent much bar-leaning time discussing the pros and cons of driving the Skeleton Coast road with us and very kindly offered to have our repaired tyre re-checked for us.
Lester, our guide, took us on an excellent trip to see the elephants - Oscar got a little too close for comfort, attempting to stick his head in the vehicle! We even got to see meerkats!
Our room (no 9) was large, bright and airy - even so we wheeled the bed out onto the balcony on our second night - amazing experience to wake at 3am and see the Milky Way overhead - it was by far the coollest (in both senses of the word) place to sleep and we'll remember it for a long time.
Food was plentiful and wholesome though service of cooked breakfasts was slow, delaying some people on their morning activity.
Activitied are rated as 'good' rather than 'excellent' as we thought some were overpriced.
We would return without hesitation

Welcome to Fleurieu Coast
The Fleurieu Coast stewards some 750 square kms of South Australia's glorious Fleurieu Peninsula. Nature is supreme in this part of the world. From the high rainfall dairy country of Parawa to lush pine forests and pristine conservation parks, there's more than 600 kms of roadways to explore.
With 2,700 kms of seasonal and permanent watercourses and 80 kms of rugged coastline where hills meet sea, our rivers meet the cooling waters of Gulf St Vincent and Backstair's Passage.
And with 25 kms of clean sandy beaches it's no wonder that 4,500 people choose to call this place home – farmers, artists, retirees and many thousands more weekend residents and seasonal holiday-makers. Experience the undiscovered bays and byways of the Western Fleurieu – there's more to melt the heart than meets the eye!

Festival Fleurieu Events Selling Out
12 March 2015
With Autumn beckoning, Festival Fleurieu is fast approaching and the organisers, artists & venues are all flat out preparing for what promises to be fabulous festival offering in April. But if you thought you have plenty of time to think about what to attend, think again. Festival organisers have issued a timely warning to act now to avoid disappointment. Sales of many of the ticketed events at this year's Festival Fleurieu are selling fast according to Festival Chairman, Mr Greg Mackie. Speaking to Fleurieu West Connect this week, Mr Mackie said "a couple of events have already sold out and many others have sold around half capacity with five weeks left until the festival." Mr Mackie said he was delighted with the response so far and encouraged everyone to book early.
The Governor of South Australia, His Excellency the Honourable Hieu Van Le AO, will open the Festival Fleurieu this year.

Steve Kelman is professor of public management at Harvard University's Kennedy School of Government and former administrator of the Office of Federal Procurement Policy.
It seems to have become de rigueur for popular books presenting academic research to have one-word titles. Malcolm Gladwell, a writer at The New Yorker, seems to have inaugurated that trend with his book "Blink" about scholarly work on intuition. In that spirit, Morten Hansen, a professor at the Haas School of Business at the University of California, Berkeley, has written a book about collaboration in organizations, called simply "Collaboration."
Hansen has been doing research on collaboration in companies for 20 years. Given the enormous interest in the topic in government in the past decade, it is interesting to see a similar trend occurring in corporate America.
"When I started my research on collaboration…the topic was not that important," Hansen said. "Managers saw it as one of many things to get right, but it didn't climb to the top of their agendas. This has changed considerably. I have witnessed collaboration becoming a top priority in large multi-unit companies in the United States, Europe and Asia."
Hansen is no fan of collaboration for its own sake. Collaboration takes time, and if it doesn't generate sufficient benefits, it might not be worthwhile. It also creates a danger of free-rider problems, in which collaborators lose a sense of individual responsibility and work less hard, assuming others in the group will pick up the slack.
Hansen sees four barriers to collaboration:
The first two barriers relate to the motivation to collaborate, Hansen said. The latter two relate to the ability to collaborate.
Hansen's key managerial point is that efforts to deal with problems must be tailored to the barrier. To deal with motivation problems, he recommends a mix of incentives and leadership skills. You can't expect people not to hoard knowledge when all the rewards are for individual performance. Instead, people should have performance plans that are based on both their personal achievements and their unit's accomplishments and on meeting some specific goals that require cross-unit cooperation. So-called 360-degree evaluations by subordinates, peers and supervisors can also help.
Leadership plays a role, too. Citing a classic social psychology field experiment involving kids at a summer camp, Hansen said intergroup hostility can be counteracted by a leader forcefully giving the groups a goal they can only meet by working together.
To ease the costs of transferring knowledge, Hansen said the key is to encourage the building of effective networks. He cited his own research to show that having a large number of people involved in a network is not associated with improved output. All that networking takes time, which can hurt productivity. Instead, it is the diversity of people's ties that helps. In other words, you want to get people to associate with colleagues who have different skill sets. Furthermore, the people most effective at transferring knowledge are often longtime employees who have worked in many parts of the organization.
Hansen's book is a good and practical read — an excellent example of making academic research accessible.

unicode possibilities
It would be nice if cl-user would display unicode input for CJK text. With PCL and On Lisp getting new printings in Japan, it might be beneficial to attract more brain-share from that side of the world. Would this be considered out of cl-user.net's scope?

They are there to cheat their customers. They charged me extra for valentine day delivery. Although I booked my order almost a week early they delivered it on 15 Feb that too in evening.
This delayed delivery was accompanied by rude remarks that they were busy that's why couldn't deliver it on 14 Feb. Moreover roses they gave were very dull.

I have been working at DISH full-time (More than 3 years)
- Free TV service - Co-workers are supportive - Steady paycheck every two weeks - I got to keep my job after referring 30+ people to be customers last year (I got a free iPad and PS4 also for an outstanding job)
Unfair treatment of technicians. RM gave techs refer code to get a PS4 and nothing happened to him. FSM's did the same but on an account that wasn't theirs, they got to keep their jobs also. Everybody knew about it in the office and did it, but only techs got fired. Too much blame shifting to make it look like techs were at fault. I was lucky and got to keep my job since I wasn't one of the first to be called in for an interview. Thank you HR for the hookup.
Advice to Management
Treat all your employees fairly regardless of their position or title. What you guys have done within that past month can be seen as preferential treatment. Disciplinary action should be the same across the board for everybody involved in the refer a friend program.

Chicago a cappella's "Tastes of Paradise" Concerts
Expand Messages
***** Chicago a cappella�s Concert, �Tastes of Paradise� *****
Chicago a cappella (the vocal group; unrelated to this news group except by interest) is presenting �Tastes of Paradise� at three Chicago area venues.
The pleasures of food! Medieval praises of wine, our crowd-pleasing �Chili con carne,� Baroque odes to coffee, Lyle Lovett�s rocking gospel tune about lunch, the six course �Fragments from His Dish� by Bob Chilcott and a piece of apple pie by Midwestern folk legend Malcolm Dalglish, full of vocal percussion.
You have a choice of three venues and dates to fill that craving:

Buckley: Hate idea of new David Ortiz deal? - 0 Comments
That doesn't mean you are anti-Papi
FORT MYERS — Here's the part David Ortiz has trouble understanding: It doesn't make you a "hater" to say no thanks to the 38-year-old designated hitter's latest campaign for a new contract.
True, most people want Ortiz to get anything he wants whenever he wants it — teammates, fans, sportswriters. Even the man who signs Big Papi's paychecks, Red Sox principal owner John W. Henry, seems willing to see that Ortiz gets his cash.

This invention relates to a method and apparatus for producing gel beads immobilizing or enclosing enzymes, plant tissues, etc.
Known methods for producing gel beads by dropping sol include distributing sol in a solidifying liquid tank from the periphery of a rotary disk, and dropping sol from nozzles or orifices formed in a perforated plate. Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 52521/1984, for example, discloses a method using a perforated plate. In the apparatus used for this method, a perforated plate is provided at the bottom of a sol liquid tank, then sol liquid is added to the tank to a given level, and thereafter pressure is applied to the surface of the sol liquid forcing the sol liquid through the orifices in the perforated plate into the reaction liquid.
In the prior art method, as described above, sol liquid is reserved on the perforated plate up to a given level, and then a pressure is applied to the liquid surface so as to improve productivity. However, since a large quantity of the sol liquid is fed onto the perforated plate, there is a possibility that the resultant beads are inhomogeneous. In addition, in the prior art apparatus the liquid level is feedback controlled, which makes its operation complicated and requires that the apparatus be strong enough to bear the pressure applied to the liquid surface. Furthermore, since the amount of sol is controlled by opening and closing a valve, there is a possibility that plant tissues, may be broken by valve opening and closing operations. The prior art apparatus is therefore not suitable for producing beads, which enclose plant tissues, therein.
An object of this invention is to provide a bead producing method and apparatus having a simple structure, being capable of producing homogeneous beads, and attaining high productivity.
The present invention provides a bead producing method for dropping sol having enzymes, plant tissues, etc. dispersed therein through a perforated plate into a solidifying liquid, which comprises the steps of: feeding the sol from a sol supply tank to a position near the outer periphery of a planet gear of a planetary gear mechanism disposed on the perforated plate; and moving up the sol supply tank in proportion to a decrease in the liquid level of the sol supply tank whereby the liquid level may be retained in a constant position with respect to the perforated plate. Furthermore, the present invention provides a producing apparatus for feeding sol having enzymes, plant tissues, etc. dispersed therein onto a perforated plate and dropping the sol into a solidifying liquid in a solidifying liquid tank through orifices in the perforated plate, which comprises a sol supply tank for storing a sol; a sol supply tank moving mechanism for moving up the sol supply tank in proportion to a decrease in the liquid level of the sol supply tank; a planetary gear mechanism having an internal gear formed on the periphery of the perforated plate, a sun gear disposed at the center of the perforated plate, and a planetary gear rotating along the internal gear and the sun gear therebetween; and means for feeding the sol to a position near the outer periphery of said planet gear from said sol supply tank.
In this invention, the sol is fed from the supply tank to a position near the outer periphery of the planet gear of the planetary gear mechanism so that the sol is homogeneously distributed onto the perforated plate. Furthermore, the sol supply tank is raised so that a decrease in the liquid level of the sol supply tank may be compensated so as to keep constant a head between the liquid level of the sol supply tank and the perforated plate. This enables the sol to be fed in a given quantity. Consequently, beads of a uniform diameter are produced, and even fragile substances, such as plant tissues, seeds, etc. can be enclosed in beads without being damaged.
An embodiment of this invention will be explained with reference to the drawings attached hereto.
In the accompanying drawings:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the bead producing apparatus according to this invention;
FIGS. 2, 3 and 4 are partial sectional views of the perforated plate used in the bead producing apparatus according to this invention;
FIG. 5 is a block diagram of the planetary gear mechanism used in the bead producing apparatus according to this invention;
FIG. 6 is coordinate explaining orbits in which the sol supply port of the bead producing apparatus of this invention moves; and
FIGS. 7 to 11 are views of orbits in which the sol supply port of the bead producing apparatus of this invention travels.
Referring to FIG. 1, a bead producing apparatus M of this invention has a sol supply tank 1 for containing sol having enzymes, plant tissues, etc. dispersed therein, and the sol supply tank 1 comprises a cylindrical main body 1a, a lid 1b, a motor 1c mounted on the lid 1b, and a screw 1d turned within the main body 1a by the motor 1c. A sol contained in the main body 1a is, for example, a single solution of sodium alginate, potassium alginate, carboxymethyl cellulose, carrageenan, agar, gelatin, pectin, gellangum or others, or a mixture thereof, and enzymes, plant tissues, etc. dispersed therein. The sol is mixed slowly by the screw 1d in the tank. Enzymes used in this invention are, for example, enzymes, such as glucoamylase, aminoacylase. Organismal material used in this invention includes, for example, lactic acid bacteria, yeast, and other fungi, plant and animal cells, plant tissues, such as somatic embryos, adventitious buds, etc., and seeds. Other enzymes and organismal materials are also suitable for use in this invention.
The sol supply tank 1 is moved up and down by a sol supply tank moving mechanism 2. The mechanism 2 has a moving frame 2a, and the moving frame 2a has arms 2b. The arms 2b are placed around the circumferential surface of the main body 1a to hold the tank 1. A motor 2c is provided on a side surface of the moving frame 2a. The motor 2c drives a rack and pinion mechanism (not shown) to move the moving frame 2a up and down along a pole 3.
The lower end of the sol supply tank 1 is connected to the upper end of a hose 4, so that through the hose a required quantity of the sol in the tank 1 is fed onto a perforated plate 5. The perforated plate 5 has a plurality of orifices 5a, . . . equidistantly formed therein. Underneath the perforated plate 5 there is provided a solidifying liquid tank 6. The perforated plate 5 is supported above the solidifying liquid tank 6 by a plurality of support rods 7.
Complexing agents, solutions, organic solvents, temperature-adjusted fluid paraffin, etc. corresponding to a sol to be used are stored in the solidifying tank 6. For sols and their solidifying solutions, refer to "Suiyousei Koubunshi Mizu Bunsangata Jushi No Saishin Kako Kairyogijitsu to Youto Kaihatu Sogo Gijitsu Shiryoushuu" (Techniques for Most Recent Processing, Quality Improvement and Application Development of Water Soluble Polymers and Water Dispersible Polymers) (1981) published by Keieikaihatsu Center.
The perforated plate 5 has an internal gear 8 formed on its internal periphery. A sun gear 9 is provided at the center of the perforated plate 5. A planet gear 10 is provided between the internal gear 8 and the sun gear 9. A sol supply port 10a is formed in the planet gear 10 at a position near the periphery thereof. The lower end of the hose 4 is held in the sol supply port 10a. The sun gear 9 is fixed to the shaft 11a of a motor 11 secured to the underside of the solidifying liquid tank 6 The shaft 11a is extended through the bearing portion 6a at the center of the solidifying tank and above the perforated plate.
The sun gear 9 rotates thereby causing the planet gear 10 to rotate around the sun gear 9. This planetary gear mechanism enables the sol to be dispersed homogeneously onto the perforated plate 5 from the sol supply port 10a.
A water-repellent coating of, e.g., TEFLON-brand polytetrafluoroethylene is applied to the underside of the perforated plate 5. Such water-repellency treatment aids the sol which has passed the orifices 5a to fall off the underside of the perforated plate 5 in clearcut drops and prevents formation of drops "a" shown in FIG. 3.
The orifices 5a should be configured in the form of a funnel a as shown in FIG. 4, to ensure that uniform ball-shaped beads are produced.
As shown in FIG. 5, when the number of teeth of the internal gear 8 is N3, that of the sun gear 9 is N1, and that of the planet gear 10 is N2, the following equation is derived from the principle of the planetary gear mechanism:
While the planet gear 10 is being revolved one time, the sun gear 9 rotates 1--N3 /N1 times and the planet gear 10 revolves +N3 /N2 times.
It is preferable that a least common multiple (LCM) of N1 and N2 is larger so that the sol supply port 10a may not travel always in the same orbit. To give examples,
In Example (1) described above, the orbit of FIG. 7 (at the beginning of a cycle) is depicted. In Example (2) described above, the orbit of FIG. 8 almost at the end of a cycle is depicted. In addition, when N1 =80 and N2 =30, the orbit at the start of a cycle is as shown in FIG. 9. When N1 =60 and N2 =31, the orbit of FIG. 10 is obtained. When N1 =47 and N2 =37, the orbit of FIG. 11 is obtained. Of these various orbits, the orbit of FIG. 8 for a larger LCM described above, and that of FIG. 11 are preferable. The orbit of FIG. 10 is deflected, and the orbit of FIG. 9 is well-balanced but has a large vacant area at the center.
These orbits are depicted as shown in FIG. 6. When an x-axis and a y-axis are set with the center of the sun gear 9 as an origin O1, and with the center of the planet gear 10 as an origin O2, and the sun gear 9 rotates by θ1, the planet gear 10 rotates by θ2 in the opposite direction to that of the sun gear 9. The coordinates of the sol supply port 10a at this time are
X=(r1 +r2) cos θ1 +r2 ' cos (θ1 +θ2) (1)
Y=(r1 +r2) sin θ1 +r2 ' sin (θ1 +θ2), (2)
wherein r2 ' 2 is a distance from the center O2 of the planet gear 10 to the sol supply port 10a. r1 and r2 are radii of the sun gear and the planet gear respectively. Accordingly r1 θ1 =r2 θ2 is given. Therefore,
θ1 +θ2 =θ1 (1+r1 /r2).
Assuming r2 =r2 ' and substituting the above-described equations respectively with θ1 +θ2 =θ1 (1+r1 /r2),
X=(r1 +r2) cos θ1 +r2 cos θ1 (1+r1 /r2) and (1)
Y=(r1 +r2) sin θ1 +r2 sin θ1 (1+r1 /r2). (2)
FIGS. 7 to 11 show that the orbits of the sol supply port as depicted in computer simulations based on the above-described equations.
For example, to form 4mm-diameter beads, a sol flows through a 10mm-diameter hose 4 at a flow rate of 10cm/sec to be fed on the perforated plate 5. In one hour,
π×{1(cm)/2}2 ×10×3600 (sec)=4/3+π×
(0.4/2)3 ×N (number of beads), and therefore,
N=843750 pieces/hour=234 pieces/sec
are obtained. This shows a sufficient number of beads can be formed in a given hour by feeding sol even through the hose 4.
In order to feed a constant quantity of sol to the sol supply port 10a, the liquid level of the sol supply tank is made constant with respect to the perforated plate 5 (that is, a head is made constant). To accomplish this purpose, the moving frame 2a is moved up at a given rate in proportion to a decrease in the liquid level
The embodiment of the present invention having the above-described structure enables a given quantity of sol to be distributed evenly on the perforated plate and consequently to be formed into beads of a uniform diameter In addition, the present embodiment enables fragile substances, such as plant tissues, seeds, etc. to be enclosed in beads without being damaged.

"Craigslist.com and Google.com, two Web sites that have fundamentally altered the way consumers buy a broad range of products, are emerging as places to shop for residential real estate, a development that in the long term could weaken Realtors' hold on home selling.
Listings of real estate for sale on Craigslist, a popular Web site featuring free classified ads, rose to 335,126 in March, more than triple the level of a year earlier. Google Inc., meanwhile, is testing a tool to help users sort through listings of homes for sale. Several more specialized sites launched in the past year -- including Trulia.com, Oodle.com and Propsmart.com -- offer free access to substantial numbers of listings."
Realtors have hoarded and protected their information for far too long. In "Freakonomics" Steven Levitt statistically proved that they underprice the homes they list for us.

Jared Leto in Early Talks to Replace Will Smith in 'Brilliance'
Julius Onah is directing the project, which will star Noomi Rapace.
Jared Leto, who won the best supporting actor Oscar for his work in Dallas Buyers Club, may have found his next acting project.
Sources tell THR the actor is in early talks to replace Will Smith in Brilliance, Legendary's adaptation of the Marcus Sakey novel.
PHOTOS Oscars 2014: Winners' Backstage Reactions
Julius Onah is directing the project, which has a script by David Koepp. Joe Roth, Thomas Tull and Jon Jashni are producing.
Sakey's book takes place in a world where a rare set of people are born with extraordinary abilities and are called "brilliants."
PHOTOS 35 of 2014's Most Anticipated Movies: 'X-Men: Days of Future Past,' 'Mockingjay,' 'Spider-Man 2'
While talks are still quite early on, if Leto decides to take on the role, he'll play a federal agent with great hunting gifts who is drafted to hunt down a terrorist, another such brilliant who intends to start a civil war. Noomi Rapace will also star in the film, which Universal will distribute under its first-look deal with Legendary.

MasterCard (
) has entered into an agreement with China UnionPay Data Co.,
expanding its presence in China and likely raising revenues for
both companies by adding locations where their cards are accepted.
Mastercard is the second largest global payment solutions company
in the world and provides a variety of services to support credit,
debit and related card payments globally. Its main competitors are
Visa (
American Express
Discover Financial
), Diners Club and JCB.
We have a price estimate of

Growth in China's Credit Card Market
As China is predicted to overtake the U.S. as the largest market
for credit cards by 2020 with about 900 million cards in
circulation, payment service providers like Visa and MasterCard are
looking for an entry point in the Chinese market to grab a piece of
this growing market. Total cards in China is expected to increase
11% annually and transaction value is expected to climb 14%
annually until 2025.
China UnionPay is the sole bank card transaction processing
company in the region and the biggest card company globally in
terms of card issuance and the second largest brand in the
Asia-Pacific region in terms of transaction volume. Foreign credit
card companies are barred from transactions in the Chinese market
and international cards are not accepted in China. The partnership
between MasterCard and UnionPay would help both companies reach a
wider base of customers.
Visa Inc. clashed with UnionPay in June last year and complained
that China is violating trade rules by denying international
payment processing companies an entry into its market. The U.S.
Trade Representative, Ron Kirk, was looking to file a complaint at
the World Trade Organization over the rules which block companies
such as MasterCard, Visa, American Express Co. and Discover
Financial Services from processing credit and debit card
transactions in China.
Upside to MasterCard
Penetration of electronic payment is still low in China. Of
China's $3 trillion personal consumption market, China UnionPay
accounts for about a third of the payment processing. The remaining
two-third of the market is settled through cash. Thus, there is
ample scope for MasterCard to increase its number of transactions
processed by partnering with China UnionPay. We currently estimate
that the number of transactions processed by MasterCard will
increase from 23 billion in 2010 to about 57 billion by 2017, at an
annual growth rate of roughly 14%.
Drag the trend line in the modifiable chart above to see how
various trends in the number of transactions processed affect
MasterCard's stock value.
