State Lawmaker Urges Colleagues To Take Bipartisan Action On Medical Marijuana By Jo Ingles (Ohio Public Radio) • Nov 12, 2015 User: Coaster420 / Wikimedia/Creative Commons A Democratic lawmaker who suffers from multiple sclerosis says Ohioans are growing impatient waiting for medical marijuana. Sen. Kenny Yuko says he wants to come up with a way to license and regulate medical marijuana, saying he feels it's time for state lawmakers to stop joking about the medical marijuana proposals he repeatedly sponsors. "Every time we mention medical marijuana, immediately people envision Cheech and Chong, George Carlin and the millions of times I've heard the jokes how many joint sponsors do you have for your legislation?" Ohio Marijuana Advocates Still Working On Bill To Clear Records By Karen Kasler (Ohio Public Radio) • Nov 9, 2015 Though Ohio voters soundly rejected a proposal to legalize marijuana, the group that brought it to the ballot says it's pushing forward with its next proposal. ResponsibleOhio has been working on what it calls the Fresh Start Act, which executive director Ian James said would allow for the elimination of records of non-violent marijuana convictions for offenses that will someday no longer be illegal. Taft Family Represents Two Sides Of The Marijuana Coin By Lewis Wallace • Nov 4, 2015 Lewis Wallace / WYSO The marijuana initiative on Tuesday's ballot in Ohio went down in flames, with 65 percent voting "no" on legalizing recreational and medical marijuana. Ohio Votes Down Legalizing Pot For Medical, Recreational Use By Associated Press • Nov 3, 2015 User: Coaster420 / Wikimedia/Creative Commons Ohio voters have rejected a ballot measure seeking to legalize recreational and medical marijuana use in the state. Failure of the proposed constitutional amendment follows an expensive campaign, a legal fight over its ballot wording and an investigation into the proposal's petition signatures. The measure known as Issue 3 on Tuesday's ballot would have allowed adults 21 and older to use, purchase or grow certain amounts of marijuana. The constitutional amendment would have established a regulatory and taxation scheme while creating a network of 10 growing facilities. Local Agencies Unite Against Recreational Pot By Jerry Kenney • Oct 23, 2015 warrantedarrest / Flick Creative Commons In just under two weeks Ohioans will be voting on a pot legalization measure on the fall ballot.

Marijuana Proposal's "Monopoly" Turns Away Likely Supporters By Lewis Wallace • Sep 2, 2015 Lewis Wallace / WYSO A referendum on the ballot this November could make Ohio the fifth state to legalize recreational and medical marijuana, following Washington, Oregon, Colorado and Alaska. Ohio Chamber Opposes Pot Issue, Backs Anti-monopoly Measure By Associated Press • Aug 19, 2015 Jo Ingles / Ohio Public Radio The Ohio Chamber of Commerce says it's strongly opposed to a marijuana legalization plan on the November ballot and will join a coalition seeking to get voters to defeat it. The chamber's president and CEO, Andy Doehrel, told reporters Wednesday that the pot proposal known as Issue 3 would cause uncertainty for businesses who drug test employees. He said members also were concerned about the effects it could have on workplace safety and employee productivity. ResponsibleOhio Says It Will Sue Over Marijuana Ballot Language By Jo Ingles (Ohio Public Radio) • Aug 19, 2015 Jo Ingles / Ohio Public Radio Attorneys for ResponsibleOhio, the group backing the constitutional amendment to legalize marijuana on the ballot this fall, say they're taking the state to court. On Tuesday the Ballot Board set the wording for Issue 3, the proposed amendment that establishes ten growing sites and would set regulations for pot sale and use in Ohio. And Don McTigue, attorney for ResponsibleOhio, doesn't like the ballot language. Pages1 2 3 next › last »

Thousands of people crowded into the Gwinnett Center Saturday, Jan. 24, 2009, for an evening of energized violence and brutality. The Toughest Cowboy competition had arrived at the Gwinnett Center in Duluth.
The contest involved 12 cowboys competing in the triathlon of cowboy chaos, bareback bronc riding, saddle bronc riding and bull riding. The Gwinnett stop is part of a multi-city tour with the Toughest Cowboy being awarded a Rocky Mountain ranch near Laramie, Wyoming at the end of the three-month contest.
I was allowed to photograph from the rodeo dirt and focused my camera between the ring bars occasionally dodging hyper aggravated animals. I was close enought to hear the animals snort in what I can only describe as a combination of pain, ecstasy, revenge, love, and death. I am not sure what they were feeling but they jumped, bucked, kicked and bellowed like beasts that had just been released from the gates of hell.
The cowboys themselves were a beaten and tattered bunch. Tough Cowboy Jared Green from Socorro, New Mexico had to drop out of Saturday's competition because of pain in his shoulder. Green's injuries from rodeo competitions have included breaking both of his ankles, two surgeries on his shoulder, a knee operation, broken ribs, a broken hand, concussions and a knocked-out tooth. Green is only 22 years old.
The whole event seemed to teeter on epic disaster. Batshit crazy horses ran into fences at full speed and cowboys were thrown face first into the ground, while 5000 suburbanites in cowboy hats and real Georiga cowboys screamed.
It was insane, beautiful and chilling.

Fantasy Forecaster updated Sunday, May 22 at 11:50 p.m. ET.
On tap: Intraleague play resumes on Monday after the brief interleague weekend, and with it comes a somewhat lighter week than the one before it. Whereas all 30 teams were scheduled for seven games in Week 7, only 10 are scheduled for that many in Week 8, and two teams -- the Atlanta Braves and Pittsburgh Pirates -- are scheduled for only five. Each of those teams also plays a stout opponent for one of its two series -- the Braves host the Cincinnati Reds from Friday-Sunday and the Pirates visit Atlanta on Tuesday-Wednesday -- so in weekly leagues you might want to look elsewhere for fantasy production.
The Texas Rangers have floundered offensively in May, averaging 3.59 runs per game with a .645 OPS after beginning the season with outstanding 5.19/.806 numbers in those categories in April, but there's plenty of reason to be hopeful this week. They might have both of their slugging outfielders, Nelson Cruz and Josh Hamilton, back in their lineup on Monday, and they'll play all six of their games at home, including three against the pitching-starved Kansas City Royals.
Speaking of injury comebacks, the Philadelphia Phillies might get Chase Utley back in their lineup as early as Monday, right in time for a four-game set versus the Reds.
For those of you in daily leagues, there is a scheduled doubleheader on Tuesday: Arizona Diamondbacks at Colorado Rockies. The Diamondbacks will pitch Joe Saunders and Josh Collmenter, who average 5.17 and 4.20 K's per nine innings respectively, so fireworks might be in order at Coors Field.
Reminder: For those of you in weekly-transactions leagues, first pitch of Week 8 is 7:05 p.m. ET on Monday. Here are this week's other scheduled first pitches by day: Tuesday 3:10 p.m. ET, Wednesday 12:05 p.m. ET, Thursday 12:35 p.m. ET, Friday 2:20 p.m. ET, Saturday 1:05 p.m. ET, Sunday 1:05 p.m. ET.

Projected starting pitchers
The chart below lists each of the 30 MLB teams' schedules and projected starting pitchers, and provides a matchup rating for each day's starter. Pitchers scheduled to start twice this week are in gray/beige boxes.
P: The starting pitcher's matchup rating, which accounts for past history (three years' worth as well as past 21 days), opponent and ballpark. Ratings range from 1-10, with 10 representing the best possible matchup, statistically speaking, and 1 representing the worst.
Tristan's pitching strategies
• If you've been waiting for the week for Jered Weaver to "turn it around" -- he began the year with six consecutive wins and quality starts, but has since lost four straight starts with a 5.25 ERA -- this might be it. He'll face the Oakland Athletics, a team he shut out at home on April 25, again at home, then travel to Minnesota to take on the game's worst offense, the Minnesota Twins, who have averaged 3.29 runs per game and managed a .616 team OPS. It's the same arrangement fellow two-start pitcher Dan Haren will enjoy; but he by comparison has nine quality starts in 10 tries plus a 1.23 ERA this season.
And what of the less obvious choices? Ervin Santana, Wednesday's starter, is 12-3 with a 1.99 ERA and 1.16 WHIP in 21 career games (19 starts) versus the Athletics, while Joel Pineiro, Thursday's starter, is 4-for-4 in terms of quality starts with a 2.10 ERA and 0.97 WHIP against the A's since joining the Angels last season. Tyler Chatwood, coming off a disappointing start in Oakland, could even warrant an AL-only look. The matchup is favorable and it's an opponent who has yet to face him. Closer Jordan Walden, meanwhile, has a set of matchups that could help him snap his funk; he has blown three of his past five save chances.
• Not that the Twins' rotation lacks fantasy appeal simply because they have that three-game weekend series versus the aforementioned Angels. Ever hear of a weekend populated entirely by pitchers' duels? Besides, the Twins' week-opening series against the Seattle Mariners is the true standout set of matchups. The Mariners rank next-to-last in both runs per game (3.47) and team OPS (.625), and have scored three runs or fewer in 12 of their past 16 contests. Two-start pitcher Carl Pavano has a 3.67 ERA and 1.19 WHIP in four career starts versus the Mariners, while Nick Blackburn (Tuesday) has a 3.13 ERA and 1.29 WHIP in six career starts against them. Another advantage: It's a full week of games at pitching-friendly Target Field, and the Twins' current five starters are a combined 39-24 with a 3.72 ERA and 1.29 WHIP in 102 career games (78 starts) there.
• Yovani Gallardo appears to have straightened himself out, with three consecutive quality starts, though a soft schedule (@STL, PIT, @SD) could be one explanation. No matter; he pitches at home against the Washington Nationals and San Francisco Giants, so it's not like his Week 8 matchups are that much tougher. The Nationals have averaged 3.47 runs per game and the Giants 3.29 in May, both of those bottom-10 numbers, and have .608 and .678 OPS in the month, and Gallardo has a 23-13 record, 3.45 ERA and 1.24 WHIP in his career at home. Feel free to load up on Milwaukee Brewers pitching as a whole, even the often-scary Randy Wolf. A point in his favor: He's 9-5 with a 2.86 ERA and 1.15 WHIP in 18 career starts versus the Giants, his Saturday opponent.
• If you listened to Friday's podcast, you heard Nate Ravitz and I discuss the merits of Kyle Lohse at Coors Field; the St. Louis Cardinals finish their week there with a three-game series, with Lohse scheduled to pitch on Sunday. Here are the facts: Lohse has lost all three of his career starts at Coors, with a 7.80 ERA and 1.80 WHIP. He also has seven quality starts in his past nine tries overall, including quality starts during some more challenging assignments at Cincinnati's Great American Ball Park (May 13) and versus the Brewers (May 7). So what to do? "Ride the streak," I say, especially as Lohse has a 2.77 K-to-walk ratio and 45.5 percent ground-ball rate, numbers as good as any others during his 11-year career. And that's in spite of the fact he has also lost his only two career starts at San Diego's Petro Park, where he'll pitch on Monday, with a 6.10 ERA. There's a first time for everything!
The Cardinals as a whole should experience pitching success, what with that three-game, week-opening set at Petco. Lohse and Kyle McClellan are red hot, while Wednesday starter Chris Carpenter has a 2-0 record and 1.29 ERA in three career starts at Petco. Jake Westbrook, who pitches Friday at Coors, is the one question mark. But even he has four quality starts in his past five tries.

Team advantages
The chart below lists each of the 30 teams' total number of scheduled games, home games and games versus right- and left-handed pitchers, and provides a matchup rating for the week's games in terms of overall offense, offense for left- and right-handed hitters and base stealing. Matchup ratings for each individual game are listed under the corresponding date.
Some of the data used to generate this chart is derived from Baseball Musings' Day-by-day database.
H: Hitters' matchup rating, which accounts for the opposing starting pitcher's past history (three years' worth as well as past 21 days) as well as ballpark factors. L: Hitters' matchup rating accounting only for left-handed hitters. R: Hitters' matchup rating accounting for only right-handed hitters. S: Base stealing matchup rating, which accounts for the opponent's catchers' ability to gun down opposing base stealers. Ratings range from 1-10, with 10 representing the best possible matchup, statistically speaking, and 1 representing the worst.
Tristan's hitting strategies
• Returning to the Rangers, Cruz and Hamilton are well worth immediate insertion into your fantasy lineup. Cruz is a .319/.386/.613 hitter with 36 home runs in 137 games at Rangers Ballpark since 2009, his slugging percentage and homers team bests, while Hamilton is a .320/.369/.593 hitter with 23 homers in 123 games there during that span. Their return should also create a ripple effect in the lineup; this team has .240/.314/.349 rates in the 14 games since Cruz's last appearance, while Rangers hitters not named Cruz or Hamilton combined for .260/.321/.491 rates in the 11 games in which both outfielders were simultaneously healthy. Their return hurts Endy Chavez and Craig Gentry, who had been filling in lately. However, it helps almost everyone else in a Rangers uniform.
• They might not have the majors' best hitting rating -- they're rated a "7" -- but the Detroit Tigers get my pick this week. As a team they've batted .259/.341/.417 with 14 home runs in 14 games since a 4-2 victory against the New York Yankees on May 3. They'll also battle nothing but right-handed starters in their seven-game week, a plus for left-handed Tigers hitters like Alex Avila, Brennan Boesch and Victor Martinez. Finally, that "10" rating for steals even makes the slow-starting Austin Jackson a strong fantasy option. Jackson, incidentally, is a .328/.368/.531 hitter in 16 games in May, so get him back in there at least for this week.
• The Chicago Cubs' offense is beginning to pick up, the team ranking 11th in terms of runs per game (4.31) in May, but third in team OPS (.756) during the month. Slow-starting Carlos Pena is a big reason for that; he has .333/.470/.667 rates, five home runs and 12 RBIs in 16 games in May. Darwin Barney (.317/.343/.333 in 15 games) and Marlon Byrd (.355/.394/.532 in 16 games) have also been two recent standouts. Aramis Ramirez (.273/.322/.309 in 14 games) and Alfonso Soriano (.260/.315/.360 in 14 games) haven't, by comparison, but there's historically been no better cure for either than a series against the Pirates, the Cubs' weekend opponent. Ramirez is a lifetime .289/.373/.534 hitter with 22 home runs in 103 games against his former team, while Soriano is a .330/.380/.644 hitter with 21 home runs in 64 games against the Pirates.
• Philadelphia Phillies-New York Mets is typically an intense rivalry, and so far this season, the Phillies have had the Mets' number; they've won four of six meetings, all at Citizens Bank Park, three of those scoring 10 or more runs. That said, the Mets actually have the higher team OPS during their all-time meetings at Citi Field, .721-.658, though the Phillies have scored more runs (63-61) and hit more home runs (17-13). Among the Phillies' Citi standouts: Ryan Howard has five homers and 13 RBIs in 15 games, while Raul Ibanez has three homers in 18 games. Also look to freshly promoted Domonic Brown as a deeper-league option; he was a .350/.431/.600 hitter in the minors and could provide a spark. The aforementioned Utley, as well, might have had as many as four games before the Mets series to regain his timing. Considering the strength of the matchups, he's probably worth an instant activation in all but the shallowest of leagues.
Weather report
Weatherproof games: Dodgers at Astros (3, Mon-Wed); Diamondbacks at Astros (3, Fri-Sun); White Sox at Blue Jays (4, Thu-Sun); Nationals at Brewers (3, Mon-Wed); Giants at Brewers (3, Fri-Sun); Yankees at Mariners (3, Fri-Sun); Indians at Rays (3, Fri-Sun).
Tristan's Week 8 pitcher rankings: Top 75
Rankings take into account several factors: The pitcher's raw talent, historical and recent performance; number of starts; strength of opponent(s); and ballpark factors. Be aware that different leagues might emphasize different pitching statistics that could change these rankings slightly. These are based upon a fairly standard Rotisserie scoring system, like ESPN's.

Who came forward to give their honest opinion of King&Co. They also know that "Management" got off on a technicality (not needing to verify a third party suppliers work). Near as we can tell this testimony was unprecedented in the world of public biotech and yet not a peep! -Not even by Feuerstein&Co. There's a good reason King and his IB buddies don't ever want to mention the entire Shareholder or CSM debacle suits on quarterly calls, and probably an equally good reason no journalist are writing about it.
Gues "Hit the ground running" is just a figure of speech.
"188. Confidential Witness No. 21 ("CW21") was an employee of Peregrine
from August 2007 to July of 2011. CW21's job duties included business
development for Peregrine and Avid. CW21 split his time equally between
Peregrine and Avid.
189. CW21's duties for Peregrine were to find commercial business partners
who would help Peregrine share the cost of developing bavituximab as a commercial
drug. CW21 stated that he was unsuccessful in ever finding any other entity,
including Abbvie and numerous other "big players," willing to partner with
Peregrine to develop bavituximab as a commercial drug."
"-Brings Two Decades of Hands-On Global Experience at Leading Firms to Business Development Team-
TUSTIN, Calif., July 26, 2007 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX News Network/ -- Peregrine Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: PPHM), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing monoclonal antibodies for the treatment of cancer and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, today announced the appointment of Mary J. Boyd, Ph.D. as head of business development for Asia and Europe. Dr. Boyd has more than 20 years of international pharmaceutical and biotechnology business development experience with large pharmaceutical companies including GlaxoSmithKline, Novartis and Roche. She will focus on identifying potential partners and negotiating agreements for Peregrine's extensive clinical and preclinical assets in Asian and European markets."
Ouch! So why are they still paying her?
Fido, now you are just making #$%$ up....all freaking hogwash....pure drivel!
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Jeff.....you give him too much credit. He just copied and pasted someone else's opinion, while totally ignoring any objectivity.
After all these years and watching it all unfold who here really doubts this insiders statement?
"134. While I worked there I never heard one word from management about what is owed
the shareholders in terms of giving them a return, of being honest, of getting a drug
to market, of having any obligation to the shareholders. They got the result they
wanted to have, not the truth." "
And just recently and only when asked, King divulged that Avid had just one customer of consequence. That information should've been divulged long ago and noted in each quarterly report. It's vital to making proper investment decisions.
People terminated for cause do not always speak objectively. Right fiduciary???????
If the entire investment community knows who stepped forward, they are now public record. How many and who were they.
Nonsense, Jnj, your post are pure nonsense.
"Even assuming plaintiff's conclusory allegations to be true, they do not state a claim for securities fraud. (See Order at 13 ("[F]ailure to verify the results of a scientific study is not securities fraud.") At most, the allegations suggest that it was theoretically possible for Peregrine to have discovered CSM's labeling error a bit sooner (though, in any event, not until sometime after the trial's unblinding). But as before, plaintiff does not identify a single particularized fact—not one test result, document, email, or conversation—suggesting that any defendant was ever on notice of a possible discrepancy with the trial, let alone actually knew of CSM's error, at the time the complained-of statements were made. "
This whole thread is a real stretch. The author of this thread apparently has an agenda on the short side. It is apparant that he has got some to respond thus keeping this topic active although meaningless. These boards are full of deception andmisinformation to influence potential buyers and holders. Well orchastrated and contrived to manipulate. Every co that has a very big short are attacked in various ways on these message boards. Most spouting, disguss, dismay, fraud, bad ceos, deception, and many more topics for the shorts.
The fact is that they don't want to cover the over 15 mil short, it is really that simple. The co had a good Q and beat the street. The shorts did not like that, so now what, get some attacks going. Co is over sold and over shored has a fast track going and a potiental partner in the works. They don't like that either.
Expect more of the same. This should be trading in the 3s but they have shorted over and over again to prevent that squeeze and will continue to do so untill the buhying demand steps up and forces thier hand in conjunction with the order to cover the short from the sec as times up and they get hit with the margin calls. It really is all that simple, not a big mystery.

The Benefits of Deduplication for Tier-1 Applications
Sponsored by SimpliVity - Databases like SQL Server and Oracle are very dependent on disk storage, and database performance is tightly coupled to storage performance.

Scale-Out Storage Simplifies Planning
Sponsored by SolidFire - "Never run out of disk space" became the storage administrator's prime directive because of the big difference between storage and the rest of an organization's IT infrastructure. When the network guys slightly underestimate the bandwidth they'll need to provide, the network gets congested and applications slow down. Similarly, if the server crew ends up running a few too many VMs on too few hosts, the VMs run slower. See More
Virtual Server Performance – Why Solid-State Storage Isn't Enough
Sponsored by SolidFire - When a host server fails to deliver a sufficient level of IOPS, the solution is often to invest in solid-state storage. As many organizations have discovered, however, solid-state storage is a costly solution that may only temporarily correct the problem. Like any other storage technology, there is a limit to the number of IOPS that solid-state storage can deliver, and it is often only a matter of time before this limit is reached and the performance problems return.

How do you implement Roles and Security in your C# Domain Driven Design projects? We have some debate raging on whether it should be implemented by the calling application (ASP.NET MVC) or in the Domain Model itself (model entities and services). Some argue that it should be in the web site itself since that's where the authentication already exists. But that means you have to re-implement security every time you integrate with the core business systems.
As an example: an Admin should be able to do pretty much any action in the system such as edit and deleting records (i.e. they can delete an user's order). An User on the other hand should only be able to edit and delete their own records (i.e. they can add/remove items from their shopping cart).
By the way, here is a nice thesis on the topic which covers 7 different scenarios regarding DDD & Security:
Security in Domain-Driven Design
- Chapter 4 Security service design scenarios
- 4.1 Scenario 1: Security service as regular service
- 4.2 Scenario 2: Security embedded in the UI
- 4.3 Scenario 3: Security service encapsulating the domain model
- 4.4 Scenario 4: Security service as a gateway for the UI
- 4.5 Scenario 5: Security service as an adapter for the UI
- 4.6 Scenario 6: Security service integrated by AOP with adapters
- 4.7 Scenario 7: Security service integrated with AOP
I would personally lean towards AOP using PostSharp, but not having done much with it before, I'm hesitant to take the leap.

As if rising tuition costs weren't enough to frustrate college students and their families, now the interest rates on the loans they use to pay for that education could soon drastically increase. Unless congress takes action, the rates will double on July 1.
UW sophomore Kika Kaui said she'll owe $40,000 by the time she graduates.
"$40,000 is crushing my peers and myself," she said. "When we add interest rates, we're not just paying for education. We have to pay for fear, anxiety for our own futures."
Half of all UW students use loans to pay for tuition.
"The national student debt burden has surpassed one trillion dollars. That is more than the total amount of credit card debt," Murray said.
President Obama wants Congress to keep a temporary freeze on interest rates at 3.4 percent. If that doesn't happen and the interest rate goes up, it could cost each student and extra $1,000.
Obama encouraged people this week to Tweet "Don't double my rate" on Twitter. Thousands did, but on Friday Obama threatened to veto a bill passed by the House that would freeze the rate by taking money from a healthcare fund for women.
"That's not how we should be moving forward on an issue as critical as this," Murray said.
House Republicans have said the estimated $6 billion annual cost of extending low-interest rates for student loans isn't affordable without offsetting cuts but that they are still deciding whether to support a temporary extension.
Presidential candidate Mitt Romney has also come out in favor of keeping the rates low.
"I support extending the temporary relief on interest rates for students," Romney said on Monday, though he did not offer specifics on how the extension should be paid for or how long it should last. He said he supports the extension because of "extraordinarily poor conditions in the job market."
It's not just students who worry about the potential increase, either. Penny Lara's daughter is a senior in high school who plans on getting an engineering degree from the UW.
"It is scary to hear news like that," Lara said.
The uncertainly is making thousands of families nervous, and Congress has just a few weeks to settle the issue before interest rates climb to 6.8 percent.

For now, prepare_usb.sh contains just this code:Code:KERNEL=="sd??", SUBSYSTEM=="block", DRIVERS=="usb", ATTRS{serial}=="2HAA5201", SYMLINK+="off-site-backup", RUN+="/usr/local/share/backuppc/bin/prepare_usb.sh"
prepare_usb.sh is run (and, as a result, /home/pstains/udev.test is updated) every time I plug in the external drive, but it never runs when I unplug the drive.Code:#!/bin/bash /usr/bin/touch /home/pstains/udev.test /bin/echo "${ACTION}" > /home/pstains/udev.test exit 0
For debugging purposes, I ran the following command:
... which gave me a whole bunch of output, including the following line:Code:sudo udevadm test --action="add" /block/sdc/sdc1/
However, when I ran it with the action set to "remove," i.e.:Code:udev_rules_apply_to_event: RUN '/usr/local/share/backuppc/bin/prepare_usb.sh' /etc/udev/rules.d/10-custom.rules:2
... there were no udev_rules_apply_to_event lines at all in the output.Code:sudo udevadm test --action="remove" /block/sdc/sdc1/
Any thoughts on how I can rewrite my rules to match both cases? Or suggestions for getting more useful debugging info?

Calif. cops fatally shoot woman with replica, victim misidentified
Woman pointed a replica gun at three deputies who had been dispatched to persuade her to leave her perch atop a large rock pile
By Steve Levin
The Bakersfield Californian
KERN COUNTY, Calif. — Kern County Sheriff Donny Youngblood said Monday the misidentification by the coroner's office of a woman who was shot and killed Sunday was "unacceptable" and "shouldn't happen in today's world."
Youngblood said during an interview at his office the misidentification was based on "assumptions" rather than department policy. He said there had not been a similar case in his eight years as sheriff.
The confusion revolved around the 5 a.m. shooting of 42-year-old Maria Rodriguez at a stone manufacturing business in the 1600 block of South Union Avenue. She reportedly pointed a replica gun at three deputies who had been dispatched to persuade her to leave her perch atop a large rock pile.
According to a sheriff's office news release issued Sunday, the shooting occurred after deputies climbed the rock pile. When Rodriguez pointed what turned out to be a BB gun replica of a semi-automatic handgun, all three officers fired at her.
Paramedics pronounced her dead at the scene. The three deputies have been placed on routine paid administrative leave pending a use-of-force review.
In a news release time stamped at 2:44 p.m. Sunday, the Kern County Coroner's office identified the victim as 32-year-old Sarah Bustamante, a transient.
It wasn't until nearly 24 hours later — 11:48 a.m. Monday — that the misidentification was acknowledged and officially changed.
Youngblood said the identification of the woman as Bustamante was based on two assumptions. One came from the owner of the business, who told deputies Bustamante had regularly been on the property in the past. The second came from one of the three responding deputies. He had arrested Bustamante previously and believed she was, in fact, the dead woman.
"At the end of the day, none of those are excuses," Youngblood said. "There's just no excuse...not to provide a positive identification. This is just unacceptable."
He said the sheriff's office — which includes the coroner's division — didn't learn of the misidentification until called after 10 a.m. Monday by a media outlet.
Following that, a fingerprint check quickly determined the woman was Rodriguez.
"We're going to conduct an investigation on how this occurred and find a way we can ensure it doesn't happen again," Youngblood said. "This shouldn't happen in today's world."
Depending on the circumstances involving bodies — the extent of damage, for example, if the body is burned or the hands are missing — positive identification can be made through DNA, fingerprints and dental records.
"There are many different ways to identify someone depending on what you have to work with," Youngblood said. In this case, "we made some assumptions and took a leap of faith.
"This is tragic. There's no question about that."

This paper provides a set of generic equivalent collector system (ECS) parameters for power system studies of large wind power plants (WPPs) represented by single-machine equivalents. They are intended to be used when actual collector system data are not available for calculating specific ECS parameters. The accuracy that can be expected with the generic ECS is quantified for a sample of 17 actual WPPs in the range of 50-300 MW. Generic ECS parameters have shown to provide active and reactive powers at the ECS output whose accuracies are adequate for prospective or preliminary studies.

A Contrabanda plays traditional music from Galicia (north of Spain) on gaita (Galician bagpipes) and percussion (tambourine, shells, drum...). This 'banda de gaitas' is the result of the lessons gaita and percussion at Muziekpublique (Brussels). Galician music is -thanks to its celtic roots- close to Irish and Breton music. Contrabanda plays the typical Galician rythms (muiñeira, similar to the 'jig', jota, paso doble, polka, rumba etc), and also shows you how to dance on them!
In recent years A Contrabanda played at several festivals in Belgium and France (Festival Euroceltes Strasbourg, Parkfeesten Sterrebeek etc).

BlackBerry's CEO seems to think the tablet market is a dead end despite the iPad's success, Microsoft can't seem to find its target audience for commercials, and Jeff and Bryan disagree on what they think Apple's iPhone strategy will be. All that, and it's poke-Bryan-with-a-stick week.
Thanks for the great show.
I find myself agreeing with Bryan quite often, very much so during the cheap iPhone discussion.
It seems quite clear to me that the production costs for older iPhone models can only decrease so much and as such they are not the key to getting an iPhone below half the historical price.
Starting from the obvious 2013 Christmas iPhone lineup
$450 iPhone 4S 16GB
$550 iPhone 5 16GB
$650 iPhone 5S 16GB, $750 32 GB, $850 64GB
we have these issues:
- no cheaper model to attract unsubsidised buyers
- many subsidised buyers go for the iPhone 5 which has lower margins because machining aluminium doesn't follow Moore's law to get so much cheaper in just one year
- even more subsidised buyers than today go for the good enough iPhone 4S
So let's tweak this lineup a bit
- iPhone mini with many case colours available, the same 3.5" screen and great camera from iPhone 4S, new SoC designed entirely by Apple, based on the 32nm A5 in iPad mini but with a new on die built in 3G only radio developed in house by Bob Mansfield's team; $300 8GB, $400 16 GB, $500 32GB
- iPhone (5S, but designation dropped just like for iPad) with fingerprint sensor; $650 32GB, $750 64GB, $850 128GB
- iPhablet is unpredictable because one doesn't make sense in the current context of iOS.
The tweaked lineup has:
- new attractive lower price entry point with everyone's favourite hook
- great upsell potential to a higher capacity model with better margin
- significant growth potential by attracting unsubsidised buyers
- clear and obvious differences in processing power, connectivity (3G vs. 4G), build materials, and other capabilities between the two tiers which leads to
- clear incentives for subsidised buyers to choose a premium model and for operators to promote it

Gone Baby Gone
Animal Psychology Charges Rugged Thug Tale 'The Drop'Submitted by NickHC on September 12, 2014 - 11:10am
Rating: 3.5/5.0
CHICAGO – For a film adapted from "Mystic River" and "Gone Baby Gone" author Dennis Lehane, there are no children in danger in "The Drop," but there is a pit bull puppy named Rocco. The dog's involvement in the story, an animal who gets as many closeups this side of a Charles Martin Smith film, invites the uncharacteristically blunt metaphor of how creatures fight for power, or even just the impression of power.

Rating: 4.0/5.0
CHICAGO – Only three years since the Chicago Film Critics Association awarded Ben Affleck as our most promising filmmaker, he's back in the director's seat a second time with "The Town". While the film dramatically centers on the business of robbery in his familiar streets of Boston, Affleck importantly proves that his 2007 Oscar-nominated film "Gone Baby Gone" wasn't just beginner's luck.

IBC's "Targeting Metabolic Disorders" meeting, held late last month in Boston, was particularly timely given the new regulatory hurdles and higher standards for efficacy required for the next generation of metabolic drug products. Most of the presenters were confident that their research efforts would ultimately lead to the development of better metabolic therapeutics.
Representing Metabolex, Maria Wilson, Ph.D., senior scientist, and Charles McWherter, Ph.D., senior vp of research and preclinical development, discussed the company's ongoing research. Dr. Wilson specifically reviewed her work with the GPR119 agonist MBX-2982, a drug candidate in Phase I development.
GPR119, a Gas-coupled GPCR, is expressed in b-cells in the pancreatic islets and endocrine cells in the gastrointestinal tract. Activation of GPR119 can improve glycemia by two mechanisms. In the b-cells, activation of the receptor signals the increased release of insulin in response to glucose. Activation of the receptor in the gastrointestinal endocrine cells increases levels of the incretin hormone GLP1.
"Rodent models have shown that acute treatment with MBX-2982 results in enhanced clearance of a glucose load. In fat-fed, female ZDF rats, a diabetic animal model, MBX-2982 delayed the onset of disease compared to untreated rat controls, which showed hyperglycemic symptoms within seven days," Dr. Wilson said.
Pharmacokinetic studies to date indicate that a single dose of MBX-2982 results in lower blood glucose levels by increasing insulin secretion and releasing incretin hormones such as GLP-1, potentially preserving beta cell health in the treatment of type 2 diabetes, she added.
The firm has two other drug candidates in clinical development. MBX-102, its lead candidate for type 2 diabetes, currently in Phase II trials, is being developed in collaboration with Johnson & Johnson. The drug acts as an insulin sensitizer but without the side effects of other marketed drugs in this class such as weight gain and edema, according to Dr. McWherter.
MBX-8025 is a therapeutic agent that just completed a Phase II proof-of-concept trial for treating mixed dyslipidemia. Results from this trial indicated that MBX-8025 addresses all the key defects associated with the atherogenic mixed dyslipidemia that commonly afflicts millions of diabetics and is thought to be linked to the cardiovascular consequences of the disease, Dr. McWherter stated. Its benefits included the lowering of triglycercides and LDL cholesterol, the raising of HDL cholesterol, and the reduction of the atherogenic small dense LDL particles and C-reactive protein.
"Dyslipidemia in diabetics is one of the most important unserved needs because the diabetic's ultimate demise is most often due to cardiovascular events," Dr. McWherter added. He described the mechanism of MBX-8025 as "targeting underlying defects in lipid handling, which are also thought to be associated with acquiring insulin resistance."

MDMA (commonly known as the empathogen "ecstasy") is classified as a Schedule 1 drug, which is reserved for compounds with no accepted medical use and a high abuse potential. Two researchers from Stanford, however, call for a rigorous scientific exploration of MDMA's effects to identify precisely how the drug works, the data from which could be used to develop therapeutic compounds.Do you agree that ecstasy should be studied for its potential therapeutic benefits?
