Backlog at the end of December was approximately $3.0 billion, an increase of 30.9% year-over-year. Backlog included gross new business wins in the quarter of $496.0 million, cancellations of $100.4 million (3.4% of beginning backlog), and a positive impact from foreign exchange rates of $3.7 million. The net book-to-bill ratio was 1.30 in the quarter.
Mr. Josef H. von Rickenbach, PAREXEL's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer stated, "During the second quarter, PAREXEL delivered year-over-year revenue growth in all three business segments, and earnings per share that were in line with our expectations. New business wins and moderate cancellations culminated in record backlog of over $3 billion. We also experienced a notable increase in proposals from small and emerging biopharma clients during the quarter."
"PAREXEL's global capabilities, expertise, and technology continue to enable us to win healthy new business awards. At the same time, it has become apparent that the backlog conversion rates inherent in global, complex, clinical development awards generated by strategic partnerships are different from traditional awards. Our improved understanding of new business dynamics from these partnerships has been reflected in our current forward-looking guidance."
"As we enter Calendar Year 2011, we are confident in our strategy and that PAREXEL is positioned as a leader in a changing marketplace. I believe that we have the foundation in place to achieve long-term revenue and earnings growth, and that we will continue to create and deliver value to clients and shareholders."

Letter: Don't let fear determine the reactions to these horrible shootings
Ed Gomez, Jensen Beach
Letter: Don't let fear determine the reactions to these horrible shootings
In an attempt to summarize human nature and our weaknesses, the late satirical cartoonist Walt Kelly, through his lovable character Pogo, penned his most famous words, "We have met the enemy and he is us."
In the wake of the horrible shootings that took place in Newtown, Conn., and other settings throughout our country, the reactions of a fearful populace reflect Kelly's sentiments.
We have become our own worst enemies by allowing fear to control our actions. Fear — stoked by extensive media coverage and analysis, and a gun lobby using the Second Amendment as justification for arming Americans — has resulted in a spate of solutions by participants in this latest political drama.
From those advocating more gun control, bans on the purchase of assault weapons and ammunition, more background checks, improved mental health services have been proposed. The NRA and other gun advocates quickly shed culpability but support arming teachers and citizens, hiring armed guards for our schools, while faulting video games and our inadequate mental health system as the root causes of the problem.
Sadly, the real winners in this scenario are the gun manufacturers, whose increasing profit margins are reflected in the millions of weapons sold in the days following the latest mass slaughter of innocents. We citizens are the losers in this tragedy: Guns will outnumber Americans in a few years. Yet, we are no safer; the number of deaths by guns in this country dwarf those other civilized nations. What are we to do?
The reasons for gun violence are complex; the remedies will require careful thought and decisive implementation.
Our collective actions will determine whether gun violence victims in our country died in vain. Let's not act out of fear, lest the memory of the victims of gun violence haunt us forever.

Wednesday, February 28, 2007
© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
SNELLVILLE - Following an hour of discussion both pro and con, Snellville City Council members voted to deny a rezoning request for 1.8 acres at the busy corner of North Road and Ridgedale Drive.The applicant, Dr. Jimmy Balkcom, asked that the property be rezoned from residential to office and professional, planning to relocate his dental office to the property and accommodate other professional offices as well. The concept plan Balkcom presented for the land had three buildings and a parking lot, although Balkcom said in Monday night's public hearing the number of offices to be built on the lot was negotiable. The 1.8-acre parcel is too much land for just one office, and having other tenants on the land would help offset the cost, according to the dentist. Several homeowners spoke in opposition to Balkcom's proposed project. Mike Hopkins, a resident of the area for more than 20 years, said he and his family already deal with noise and light pollution from a nearby Kroger shopping center and a Wal-Mart. "If you allow this (project) to go in, every residential property owner along Ridgedale will want to sell to commercial developers," said Hopkins. Residents of Woodbury, a subdivision located across from the planned project, reminded council members that allowing the rezoning would constitute spot zoning and set a precedent for properties along Ridgedale Dive and North Road. Councilwoman Barbara Bender expressed her concern about commercial development spreading along Ridgedale Drive. When the rezoning request came to a vote, Councilman Robert Jenkins moved to postpone the issue until the April 23 meeting, giving Balkcom time to re-draw his concept plan and address other concerns residents had raised. Councilman Warren Auld seconded Jenkins' motion, but postponement was voted down. The rezoning was denied by vote. According to Mayor Jerry Oberholtzer, "This is a land-use issue. If we open up that side of North Road (to nonresidential development), the whole thing's blown open. It won't stop." City ordinance regarding property maintenance tweaked City Planning Director Jessica Roth outlined several revisions to Snellville's property maintenance ordinance that make the provisions clearer and give the law more teeth. First, Snellville property owners must have a registered agent in Gwinnett County so law enforcement officials can more easily deliver citations. "We've been having to serve in places as far out as Cobb County," said Chief of Police Roy Whitehead. In addition, where the ordinance previously referred to "junk" vehicles, the revised version refers to "unauthorized" vehicles. Silt fences must be removed upon issuance of a certificate of occupancy or no more than 30 days after land stabilization, whichever comes first. Street and detention pond maintenance are also addressed in the revised text, as is the issue of parking vehicles in the front, side and rear of a house. All of these revisions were approved and can be viewed on the city's Web site.

Column: Is Kaepernick worth the risk this year?

AHEAD IN 2015: VIRUSES, EPIDEMICS AND UNITED NATIONS HAGGLING—PART THREE: Racing To Meet The MDGs (And Create SDGs)
With fewer than 360 days left to meet the Millennium Development Goals, or MDGs, hundreds of UN agencies, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), foundations, and governments are scrambling to reach the targets and prove with valid data that they have done so. Adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in 2000, the eight goals include three that are directly related to global health: numbers four, five, and six. Combined, these three aim to dramatically reduce the number of babies and children dying; improve the health and survival of pregnant women; provide universal access to treatments for tuberculosis, malaria and HIV; and reduce the incidence of those diseases.Read More

U.S. and Iranian Realities
"U.S. and Iranian Realities is republished with permission of Stratfor."
By George Friedman
U.S. President Barack Obama called Iranian President Hassan Rouhani last week in the first such conversation in the 34 years since the establishment of the Islamic Republic. The phone call followed tweets and public statements on both sides indicating a willingness to talk. Though far from an accommodation between the two countries, there are reasons to take this opening seriously — not only because it is occurring at such a high level, but also because there is now a geopolitical logic to these moves. Many things could go wrong, and given that this is the Middle East, the odds of failure are high. But Iran is weak and the United States is avoiding conflict, and there are worse bases for a deal.

Iran, Syria: Smuggling Weapons to Gain Influence in the West Bank
Posted by Brian in News, Threat Watch on 17/Aug/2013 08:00
"Iran, Syria: Smuggling Weapons to Gain Influence in the West Bank is republished with permission of Stratfor."
There are growing indications that Iran, Syria and their local proxies may be attempting to build up militant capabilities in the West Bank to eventually threaten Israel. Physically transferring weapons into Fatah-controlled West Bank will remain a key challenge, as recent arrests of weapons smugglers in Jordan have shown. Though Iran and Syria face many constraints in trying to spread militancy to the West Bank, their quiet efforts are worth noting, particularly as Hamas and Iran are now finding reasons to repair their relationship after a period of strain.

Redlines and the Problems of Intervention in Syria
Posted by Brian in News, Opinion, Threat Watch on 4/May/2013 08:00
"Redlines and the Problems of Intervention in Syria is republished with permission of Stratfor."
By George Friedman
Founder and Chairman
The civil war in Syria, one of the few lasting legacies of the Arab Spring, has been under way for more than two years. There has been substantial outside intervention in the war. The Iranians in particular, and the Russians to a lesser extent, have supported the Alawites under Bashar al Assad. The Saudis and some of the Gulf States have supported the Sunni insurgents in various ways. The Americans, Europeans and Israelis, however, have for the most part avoided involvement.
Last week the possibility of intervention increased. The Americans and Europeans have had no appetite for intervention after their experiences in Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya. At the same time, they have not wanted to be in a position where intervention was simply ruled out. Therefore, they identified a redline that, if crossed, would force them to reconsider intervention: the use of chemical weapons. Read the rest of this entry »
A New Reality in U.S.-Israeli Relations
"A New Reality in U.S.-Israeli Relations is republished with permission of Stratfor."
By George Friedman
Founder and Chairman
U.S. President Barack Obama is making his first visit to Israel as president. The visit comes in the wake of his re-election and inauguration to a second term and the formation of a new Israeli government under Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Normally, summits between Israel and the United States are filled with foreign policy issues on both sides, and there will be many discussed at this meeting, including Iran, Syria and Egypt. But this summit takes place in an interesting climate, because both the Americans and Israelis are less interested in foreign and security matters than they are in their respective domestic issues.
In the United States, the political crisis over the federal budget and the struggle to grow the economy and reduce unemployment has dominated the president's and the country's attention. The Israeli elections turned on domestic issues, ranging from whether the ultra-Orthodox would be required to serve in Israel Defense Forces, as other citizens are, to a growing controversy over economic inequality in Israel.
Inwardness is a cyclic norm in most countries. Foreign policy does not always dominate the agenda and periodically it becomes less important. What is interesting is at this point, while Israelis continue to express concern about foreign policy, they are most passionate on divisive internal social issues. Similarly, although there continues to be a war in Afghanistan, the American public is heavily focused on economic issues. Under these circumstances the interesting question is not what Obama and Netanyahu will talk about but whether what they discuss will matter much. Read the rest of this entry »
U.S.-Iranian Dialogue in Obama's Second Term
"U.S.-Iranian Dialogue in Obama's Second Term is republished with permission of Stratfor."
By Reva Bhalla
Vice President of Global Affairs
As U.S. President Barack Obama's second-term foreign policy team begins to take shape, Iran remains unfinished business for the U.S. administration. The diplomatic malaise surrounding this issue over the past decade has taken its toll on Washington and Tehran. Even as the United States and Iran are putting out feelers for another round of negotiations, expectations for any breakthrough understandably remain low. Still, there has been enough movement over the past week to warrant a closer look at this long-standing diplomatic impasse.
At the Munich Security Conference held Feb. 1-3, U.S. Vice President Joe Biden said the United States would be willing to hold direct talks with Iran under the right conditions. Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi responded positively to the offer but warned that Iran would not commit unless Washington shows a "fair and real" intention to resolve the issues dividing the two sides.

Iran Preparing for Nuclear War
Posted by Gary in Threat Watch on 18/Dec/2012 11:50
From: The Washington Times
Despite the statement by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that Israel's red line on Iran's illicit nuclear program could be reached by next spring, Iranian officials are adamant that war is close.
In analyzing Mr. Netanyahu's recent speech to the United Nations General Assembly, an Iranian nuclear policy strategist boasted to state media outlet irannuc.ir that Mr. Netanyahu's red line is based on the current enrichment process to the 20 percent level at the Fordow nuclear facility. A recent International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) report shows Iran has 90 kilograms of 20 percent enrichment, needing just 130 kilograms of such material for a nuclear bomb, which the Israelis conclude will happen by next spring.

The bank has agreed to the forfeiture as part of a deferred prosecution agreement with the Justice Department and a deferred prosecution agreement with the New York County District Attorney's Office for violating New York state laws by illegally moving millions of dollars through the U.S. financial system on behalf of sanctioned Iranian, Sudanese, Libyan, and Burmese entities.

U.S. Foreign Policy: Room to Regroup
"U.S. Foreign Policy: Room to Regroup is republished with permission of Stratfor."
By George Friedman
President Barack Obama has won re-election. However, in addition to all of the constraints on him that I discussed last week, he won the election with almost half the people voting against him. His win in the Electoral College was substantial — and that's the win that really matters — but the popular vote determines how he governs, and he will govern with one more constraint added to the others. The question is whether this weakens him or provides an opportunity. That is not determined by his policies but by the strategic situation, which, in my view, gives the United States some much-needed breathing room.
The Structure of the International System
At the moment, the international system is built on three pillars: the United States, Europe and China. Europe, if it were united, would be very roughly the same size as the United States in terms of economy, population and potential military power. China is about a third the size of the other two economically, but it has been the growth engine of the world, making it more significant than size would indicate. Read the rest of this entry »

Opana ER was reformulated to be crush resistant because pills meant to be swallowed whole shouldnt be crushed. Crushing pills constitutes abuse. Abuse of this medication is why the manufacturer reformulated it in the first place! Crushing pills to defeat the time release mechanism is dangerous and could be fatal. If you find that the pills arent working for you, you need to contact your Dr. Dont resort to crushing them, as I said, this constitutes abuse and abuse of these medications makes it difficult for pain patients to continue to get their meds.

Oh, Bill Nye. I rushed home every day after school so I could watch his show on my local PBS station before dinner. He exposed me to everything from the vastness of the universe to the mind-bogglingly tiny scale of atoms. It was even the Science Guy who showed me the difference between science and pseudoscience. Plus, bow ties. I honestly don't think I would be the person I am without him. All I'm saying is, my nerd crush runs deep.
Bill Nye is once again proving himself to be a total BAMF. Here is a video of Bill telling it like it is. Anti-science thinking is dangerous and kids should be able to study scientific subjects without the religious baggage of their parents. Word.

The stories in the bible should be looked at as colorful metaphors, and also respected and acknowledged as how people saw the world ages ago. It was a theory, an explanation, for people who couldn't explain how things worked in the world, the same way the Greeks created a mythology that explained why it rained. Now it is modern science that explains the world, and universe, around us and will be even more advanced and explain more in the future. Creationists are living in a past that created a story to explain the uncertainty of life.
Oh, and Bill Nye rocks! :D
Dorothy N. - He is Awesome. I grew up watching him.
Don't think I'd ever heard of Bill Nye before - things are getting pretty bad when someone expressing basic common sense sends fills you with relief...
But he is a breath of oxygenated air, isn't he?
and then there is that talking snake....
its probably best to see all creation stories as colorful metaphors of their own cultural moorings.
I have no problem with Creationism. But, I have a wider view than the Christians that think that God created existence only 6000 years ago. Look at Genesis. this is a great explanation for the Big Bang Theory. It has to be simple. It was an explanation of how God brought existence into being that was aimed at a simple minded peoples. People who had lost the concept of great expanses of time. So a day was used. Oh. A Creator that can bring this vast universe into being would not get tired and have to rest on the 7th day. Religion with out science is superstition.
So true. So reasonable.

RivalsHigh 100: Teams 50-46
Dallas Jackson
RivalsHigh.com has begun its 2010 countdown, ranking the teams from No. 1 through No. 100.
We started at No. 100 on July 26 and will release two groups of five teams per day. Then, we'll do a daily countdown from No. 10 to No. 1. Our top team will be unveiled on Monday, Aug. 9 - two weeks from the start of the season.
After that, we will wait until Sept. 1 for the next rankings, then have them every Monday during the season.
The team rankings were compiled by high school sports senior analyst Dallas Jackson, the Rivals AMP team, football recruiting analysts and the entire RivalsHigh network of publishers.
In case you missed it: Previous ranking groups | Post your thoughts about teams 50-46
COACH: Tom Bolden
FINAL 2009 RANKING: No. 24 in Ohio
KEEP AN EYE ON: How the Cardinals start the season. Last year, they dropped back-to-back contests in the opening two weeks of the season against state powers Elder and St. Xavier. The 0-2 start was too big of a hole to escape out of in the always crowded Division I, Region 4, and Colerain failed to make the playoffs despite winning its final eight games. The team gets things started this season against a tough Clayton Northmont team in the Skyline Chili Crosstown Showdown and it'll need to come ready to play.
STRENGTH: Running the football is Colerain's bread and butter. A triple-option team, it will run the ball and then run it some more. You can't argue with the strategy when backfield mates Trayion Durham and Tyler Williams are both Division I recruits and each boast 1,300 yard seasons on their resumes. Durham, a 6-foot-1, 230-pound battering ram, is Rivals' second-ranked fullback in the nation for the Class of 2010.
STAR OF THE SHOW: Durham and Williams are featured on offense, but the Cardinals also feature a fearsome linebacker duo of Andrew Smith and recent Notre Dame commit Jarrett Grace. They will need to provide a strong presence in the front seven right out of the gate. In Colerain's 2009 opening night loss, the team was done in by allowing nearly 200 rushing yards to St. Xavier. That can't happen this season.
QUOTABLE: "It was strange to not see Colerain in the Division I playoffs last season considering their national reputation," said OhioVarsity's Mike Parris. "The 8-2 record was nothing to sneeze at, but you know the Cardinals aren't happy unless they are contending for a state championship. The pieces are in place this season and, if they can find a new quarterback to come in and orchestrate the triple option, they should be back in the hunt for a title."
COACH: Joe Kinnan
FINAL 2009 RANKING: No. 26 in RivalsHigh Top 100
KEEP AN EYE ON: If Manatee can produce with expectations. Manatee was ranked in the RivalsHigh 100 for most of last season and was really blown up with its upset win in the Florida Class 5A semifinals over then No. 1 Ft. Lauderdale (Fla.) St. Thomas Aquinas. But, the Hurricanes were unable to keep the momentum up and lost to Tampa (Fla.) Plant in the state final. With four starters back on offense and six on defense, there are still expectations on this team.
STRENGTH: Manatee lost a bunch of big-time playmakers from last year's team, namely Brion Carnes and Ace Sanders, but the Hurricanes return 30 lettermen and one of the best backs in the country in Mike Blakely. The experience on the field can compensate for the losses and should be a strength of the team.
STAR OF THE SHOW: The team may begin and end with Blakely, a Rivals.com four-star prospect. The wrecking-ball running back checks in at 5-foot-9 and nearly 200-pounds. Almost in the Steve Slaton mold with similar quickness, Blakely does not try to avoid contact. He had 1,401 yards on the ground and scored 18 touchdowns last season, and also can catch passes out of the backfield, making him a threat on all plays.
YOUTH IS SERVED: Replacing veteran quarterback Carnes was the biggest question coming into the season for Manatee but, after its spring game, many of those questions were answered as sophomore quarterback Cord Sandberg really stepped up. The 6-foot-2 youngster completed 21 of 23 passes for five touchdowns and showed excellent command of the offense. If he can produce at even 75-percent of that clip, the Hurricanes would be extremely happy and competitive in Class 5A.
COACH: Ken Potter
FINAL 2009 RANKING: No. 2 in Oregon
KEEP AN EYE ON: The slot position, where rising star Nicholas Rothstein will get his chance to shine. Rothstein has tremendous skill and nailed a 109 SPARQ rating this summer. His 4.48 speed at UCLA impressed and his 195-pound frame will show up on both sides of the ball. Also, watch for Jesuit to be stronger than normal at quarterback where Eric Williams comes in as a solid passer with some terrific targets to hit in the air in this typically run-oriented powerhouse team.
STRENGTHS: Jesuit's depth has never been better and, for a young team, they return a lot of talent. The team returns eight all-league athletes, and coach Ken Potter has said he is very impressed with his big and agile line which Jesuit has not always been known for. Defensively, the secondary features seniors Jordan Talley and Miles Weatheroy. Combine them with Cermak Bland, who was hurt last year but could start on both offense and defense, and the defense will be capable of swarming the ball. The middle is held down by Jack Nelson, a hard-hitting, 230-pound middle linebacker who will double at fullback. Offensively, watch for 6-foot-4, 230-pound tight end John Rizzo to make his mark this season, after waiting for his chance to start behind Jacob Wark, who went to California.
STAR OF THE SHOW: Look for tailback Talley, who had 20 rushing touchdowns last season, to continue to blossom as a senior. He ran in tandem with Oregon-bound All-American Keanon Lowe last year and has his chance to step up into the spotlight this season.
IS IT THEIR TURN? Last season, Jesuit lost its opening game to Sammamish (Wash.) Skyline, but played a close game. It then ran the table for 12 straight games before losing in the state championship game to Eugene (Ore.) Sheldon in a 50-43 shootout. This year, though, Sheldon will likely not give Jesuit a run. Metro League opponent Aloha might have a shot, but beating Jesuit this year seems like a tall order for any team in Oregon.
QUOTABLE: "This team simply reloads every year," said OregonPreps editor Dirk Knudsen. "In the past, they have won and rarely had a featured quarterback. Now comes Williams, who is showing signs of being able to really throw the ball. They're going to be tough to beat."
COACH: John Hart
FINAL 2009 RANKING: No. 2 in Indiana
KEEP AN EYE ON: How the team matches up with Cleveland (Ohio) Glenville in Week Two. Very rarely does a game between the top team in Indiana and the top team in Ohio really mean much, but this Warren Central team may actually be able to match up with top-end talent. The Warriors have seven kids with Division I offers and depth, as they play 35 guys deep. Expectations are very high at Warren Central and taking on a national-level opponent like Glenville could be a defining moment for high school football in Indiana, where fans are typically hoping to not have their school's best basketball players get injured.
STRENGTH: The overall talent and depth on the defensive side of the ball is unusual to see from an Indiana team. Up front, the line can feature two players both headed to the ACC in four-star recruits Kris Harley and Kiaro Holts. The pair goes 6-foot-2, 265 pounds and 6-foot-5, 270 pounds respectively. Behind them is a pair of 6-foot linebackers - Nick Temple, who has committed to Cincinnati, and Damon Williams. And the secondary boasts another Big East commit in Eric Robinson-Berry, who will attend Louisville. He will line up alongside one of the team's best athletes in Robert Hollins, who is primarily a wide receiver but can make an impact just about anywhere.
TWO-HEADED BACKFIELD: Warren Central opens the season with two major players in the backfield. The return of Anthony Davis gives the team one option, but, according to coach John Hart, his understudy, junior Deionte Buckley, could be even better. Hart said that Buckley has an on-field style very similar to Maurice Clarrett.
QUOTABLE: "I really do not think there will be a team in the country that will play harder than we do this year," Hart said. "We lost a lot of kids but we brought back the right ones, and this is a very talented very hungry team we have here. We make our schedule to challenge these kids and people who see our program for the first time will be surprised."
COACH: Ted Davidson
FINAL 2009 RANKING: No. 9 in Louisiana
KEEP AN EYE ON: If Acadiana can match the high expectations that it is seeing in 2010. Last year was expected to be a rebuilding year for the Rams, with a team that returned some of the fewest numbers in the state. This season, all of those young kids have grown up and the team brings back 17 starters. Coach Ted Davidson is 62-18 in his seven seasons at Acadiana and this looks to be his best team yet.
STRENGTH: The offensive line brings back all five starters from last season and will be among the best units in the country. Being that the Rams run an old-school veer offense, the guys up front get to be aggressive and smash heads all game. Trey Junker is the most experienced player, starting since his sophomore year. He has split time at guard and tackle, but will slide inside and play center this year. Senior tackle Nick Smith stands 6-foot-4 and tips the scales at 280; the other tackle, Cody Nero, also returns, as do both guards in junior Barrett Guidry and senior Cade Dawes.
THE RUN-AROUND: Yes, the Rams bring back a ton of starters. But two noticeable losses will be from the backfield as Blair Broussard and Josh Pillard both graduated. The pair ran for 1,321 yards and 1,152 yards respectively and combined for 35 touchdowns. Replacing that production will be very difficult, but not impossible, as Jeff Brown and Terry Abraham will certainly get opportunities to tote the rock.
TRANSFERRING TALENT: Darius Ridgeway, a transfer from Riverview (Fla.) Spoto, has made his impact felt immediately. Ridgeway was a contributor as a sophomore last season and has stepped in at Acadiana and taken over at linebacker for what would have been a returning starter.

Lleyton Hewitt is a wanted man, on and off the court
- From: National Features
- January 09, 2013
HE'S articulate, insightful and can shock you with his brutal honesty. No wonder Channel 7 reckons bullishly confident Lleyton Hewitt has a bright future as a commentator.
On the eve of the 2013 Australian Open, Seven set out to ensure Hewitt would play a significant role in its coverage.
For the third successive year, the network has done a deal with Hewitt where he will take a position in the commentary box if he is knocked out of contention during the course of the tournament.
Four-time grand slam winner Jim Courier, a regular in Seven's Australian Open box, says Hewitt offers some of the most insightful and current thinking on the game.
"There is a lot going on in a commentator's ear that people wouldn't be aware of," Courier says.
"Lleyton had no experience in that. There is no school you can go to. You just get in the deep end and he was swimming at a very high level from minute one."

A great bloke and one of the very best tennis players Australia has produced. By any hard analysis, there are only two Aussie guys - Ken Rosewall and Rod Laver - who have been world number 1 longer than Hewitt. John Newcombe, Frank Sedgman, Lew Hoad - all in Lleyton's dust. Astonishing really, but a fact.

I sincerely hope he has a bold font sign in front of him reading" DO NOT SAY LIKE or YOU KNOW" as I am sick & tired of hearing these bogan utterances from so called professional commentators.
Comment 2 of 5
Maverick of Adelaide Posted at 1:00 PM January 09, 2013
To be honest, I think Lleyton Hewitt is from the same sporting mould as Shane Warne. Both have continually embarrassed themselves in their conduct throughout their careers (Warne more off the field than on; Hewitt the opposite), and I know that I'm not the only Australian who, when watching Hewitt play, feels that they don't represent me or my country...and in fact my gut instinct is to go for his opponent by default. This is not "tall poppy syndrome", but a reaction to the severe lack of sportsmanship he has displayed on the court over the years. All aspects considered, I think Pat Rafter walked away from the game a better all round player than Hewitt will.

Brett of Perth Posted at 1:31 PM January 09, 2013
I think it would be a risk-free prospect to pencil him in to the commentary team after round 1...doubt hell have much on after that
Comment 4 of 5
C'mon!! Posted at 2:06 PM January 09, 2013
@Maverick - name the misdemeanors that Lleyton has performed? Other than a few encounters as a kid Lleyton has been an upstanding and courageous competitor that we are lucky to have represented this country. I don't think you exhibit 'tall poppy syndrome' I just think your a fool who believes anything the media will feed you.

In his opinion, the neuroscience community has underestimated the potential of microelectrodes arrays for quite some time, says Prof. Hierlemann. With the work published now in "Nature Communications", he hopes to further establish this method. "These results show that the microelectrode array technology is enabling access to data that are currently not accessible through other technologies," says the bioengineer.
Neurons, axons and signal propagation
Nerve cells or neurons communicate with other neurons via electrical and chemical signals. If an electrical signal within a cell body, close to the axon initial segment, is large enough, it enters the axon and propagates along its length at a high speed. This is achieved by alterations in the so-called resting potential of the axon membrane, which usually has a steady negative value. Sodium ion channels open, and because of a concentration gradient, positively charged sodium ions from outside the axon travel into the axon. As a consequence, the membrane potential is briefly reversed in polarity until potassium channels open and positively charged potassium ions are released into the external liquid. This brief change in membrane potential, a so-called action potential, can be detected with the microelectrode array chip. An action potential travels without attenuation to synapses, neuron-to-neuron junctions, where the electrical signal is translated into a chemical signal: neurotransmitters are released, diffuse through the small synaptic cleft and initiate electrical activity in the neighboring postsynaptic cell.
