Marijuana Deathsquads perform for City of Music
We've got a real treat for you this week -- as part of our ongoing City of Music series, we're stoked to debut one of the more experimental and artistic music videos we've seen from the MPLS.TV camp. For this week's video, producer Dan Huiting rounded up a whopping 15 cameras to film the seven core members of Marijuana Deathsquads at the Sound Gallery in downtown Minneapolis.
Much like Deathsquads' music, the video is dark, jagged, and visceral. For those who have seen the band perform in various incarnations in various rooms around town, it's a rare opportunity to hear them perform such a tight, relatively short song through high-quality recording equipment. Not to mention that it's one of the first Marijuana Deathsquads songs to officially have a name ("John Cage Match").
For a band that's at a turning point in its career -- the band is currently holding down a month-long residency at Spaceland in LA with Har Mar Superstar, a series of gigs that should help to give them firmer footing on the national playing field -- this week's City of Music video is a well-timed document of one of the Twin Cities' more adventurous yet oddly accessible noise bands.

SOURCE: Barrett, James R. Introduction to The Jungle, by Upton Sinclair, pp. xi-xxxii. Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 1988.
In the following essay Barrett discusses realism in The Jungle.
In late 1904 a brash young writer arrived in the industrial slums of Chicago's South Side. "Hello!" he announced, striding into the Transit House Hotel at the Union Stock Yards; "I am Upton Sinclair, and I have come to write the Uncle Tom's Cabin of the labor movement." As Harriet Beecher Stowe had sparked the nation's conscience with her depiction of blacks' lives under chattel slavery, so Sinclair would call the world's attention to the plight of the "wage slaves of the Beef Trust"—Chicago's immigrant packinghouse workers. For seven weeks the young writer lived among the laborers and their families, carefully observing their lives at work and...

Holidays: Closed
I divide my time between Las Vegas, Nevada and my home town of Austin, Texas and the search for great, smoky barbecue in between. Poker is my game, but barbecue is my passion. Growing up in Texas, my passion for barbecue is home grown and I proudly believe that Texas barbecue (beef barbecue) is the best in the country. But don't get me wrong, I'm smart enough to know that barbecue is truly a regional fare and I give real respect to each in its own. Texas, Kansas, The Carolinas, Alabama and Tennessee can all make a fair argument that each is better than the rest, but lets sort that debate out at the barbecue competitions. This site is about the smoky, spicy goodness of all barbecue, all styles, all regions and enjoying them with our favorite sides, beverages and of course family and friends. You'll never forget your first time! You'll be back for more.

Channel modelling in a network path is of major importance in designing delay sensitive applications. It is often not possible for these applications to retransmit packets due to delay constraints and they must therefore be resilient to packet losses. In this paper, we first establish an association between traffic delays and the queue size at a network gateway. A novel method for predicting packet losses is then proposed that is based on the correlation between the packet losses and the variations in the end-to-end time delay observed during transmission. We show that this makes it possible to predict packet losses before they occur. The transmission of multimedia streams can then be dynamically adjusted to account for the predicted losses. As a result, better error-resilience can be provided for multimedia streams transmitting through a dynamic network channel. This means that they can provide an improved quality of transmission under the same network budget constraint. Experiments have been performed and preliminary results have shown that the method can provide a much smoother and more reliable transmission of data.

000 AXNT20 KNHC 282341 TWDAT Tropical Weather Discussion NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL 741 PM EDT THU JUL 28 2016 Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the Equator to 32N. The following information is based on satellite imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis. Based on 1800 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through 2330 UTC. ...TROPICAL WAVES... A tropical wave is in the far east Tropical Atlantic with axis that extends from 17N20W to a 1010 mb low near 11N21W. These features are moving west at about 10 kt over the past 24 hours. The wave coincides with a 700 mb trough as depicted in the global models and is embedded within broad area of moisture as seen on the SSMI Total Precipitable Water imagery. Scattered moderate convection is from 7N-14N between 20W-24W. A tropical wave is moving over the central Tropical Atlantic with axis from 18N38W to 10N38W, moving west at about 15 kt over the past 24 hours. A 700 mb trough is depicted by the models between 38W-42W and a surge moisture prevails in the wave's environment as depicted by SSMI Total Precipitable Water imagery. Isolated convection is observed across the southern portion of the wave south of 15N between 37W- 41W. A tropical wave is in the central Tropical Atlantic extending its axis from 17N51W to 10N51W, moving west 10 to 15 kt over the past 24 hours. The wave coincides with a weak 700 mb trough south of 16N as depicted in the global models and is embedded within a limited surge of moisture as seen on the SSMI Total Precipitable Water imagery. No associated deep convection is observed at this time as the wave as Saharan dust is inhibiting any activity. A tropical wave in the west Caribbean with axis extending from 23N83W to 12N84W, moving west near 20 kt over the past 24 hours. This wave coincides with a well defined 700 mb trough as depicted in the global models and is embedded within a surge of moisture as seen on the SSMI Total Precipitable Water imagery. Isolated convection is observed within this wave affecting the far west Caribbean waters west of 80W. ...ITCZ/MONSOON TROUGH... The Monsoon Trough extends across Africa into the east Tropical Atlantic near 18N16W to 10N24W to a 1011 mb low near 13N35W to 11N44W. The ITCZ begins from that point and continues to 08N56W. Aside from the convection related to the tropical waves and surface lows, isolated convection prevails within 200 nm south of the Monsoon Trough between 30W-40W. ...DISCUSSION... GULF OF MEXICO... An inverted upper-level trough dominates the western Gulf of Mexico with axis extending from the Bay of Campeche to 30N93W. This feature is supporting isolated convection across the whole basin. Scattered moderate convection is moving from the Yucatan Peninsula to the west reaching the Bay of Campeche. This activity is mostly generated by diurnal heating. At the surface, a 1019 mb high is centered over the west Atlantic extending its ridge across the northern portion of the basin. A surface trough extends from 29N90W to 25N90W supporting isolated moderate convection. Scatterometer data depicts a gentle to moderate anticyclonic flow across the Gulf waters. Expect during the next 24 hours for the surface ridge to persist. The upper level trough will move west enhancing convection across the western Gulf. A thermal trough will move off the west coast of the Yucatan peninsula each evening through the week. CARIBBEAN SEA... A tropical wave is moving across the western Caribbean. Please refer to the section above for details. The eastern portion of the upper-level trough that extends across the Gulf of Mexico is supporting scattered convection across the western Caribbean in combination with the tropical wave mainly west of 80W. The Monsoon Trough extends north of Panama with isolated convection south 10N between 78W-83W. Fair weather prevails across the central and east Caribbean as Saharan dust and dry air dominate these areas. Scatterometer data depicts moderate to fresh trades across the basin with the strongest ones prevailing just north of Colombia south of 16N between 69W-76W. The tropical wave to continue moving west during the next 24 hours with convection. Little change is expected elsewhere. The next tropical wave will enter the east Caribbean by late Friday. ...HISPANIOLA... Isolated showers and thunderstorms are observed across the western portion of the island at this time induced by diurnal heating. This weather pattern will continue through the next 24 hours. ATLANTIC OCEAN... Three tropical waves are moving across the Tropical Atlantic. Please refer to the section above for details. A 1019 mb surface high is centered across the west Atlantic near 28N76W. To the east, another surface ridge prevails extending across the remainder of the basin anchored by a 1031 mb high near 42N31W. Little change is expected through the next 24 hours.

I believe I have been taking the right approach to this so far, but I would like to have a button start a video game on my computer.
So far, I have a button linking to a process:
void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
this.process1.EnableRaisingEvents = true;
this.process1.StartInfo.Domain = "";
this.process1.StartInfo.FileName = "MBO\\marbleblast.exe";
this.process1.StartInfo.LoadUserProfile = false;
this.process1.StartInfo.Password = null;
this.process1.StartInfo.StandardErrorEncoding = null;
this.process1.StartInfo.StandardOutputEncoding = null;
this.process1.StartInfo.UserName = "";
this.process1.SynchronizingObject = this;
this.process1.Exited += new System.EventHandler(this.Process1Exited);
So, where-ever I place the EXE (the one I'm coding), it will launch the "marbleblast.exe" under the subfolder MBO relative to it's location.
It seems to be working and trying to launch the game, however, it says it cannot load files that are there. I tested the game without my launcher, and it worked. I believe it's trying to run the EXE, but not letting it use the other files inside of it's folder.
I'll give more details if needed.
How can I get the game to run normally?

Back Pain Health Center
Proper Lifting Technique
Follow these tips to avoid compressing the spinal discs or straining your lower back when you are lifting:
- Keep a wide base of support. Your feet should be shoulder-width apart, with one foot slightly ahead of the other (karate stance).
- Squat down, bending at the hips and knees only. If needed, put one knee to the floor and your other knee in front of you, bent at a right angle (half kneeling).
- Keep good posture. Look straight ahead, and keep your back straight, your chest out, and your shoulders back. This helps keep your upper back straight while having a slight arch in your lower back.
- Slowly lift by straightening your hips and knees (not your back). Keep your back straight, and don't twist as you lift.
- Hold the load as close to your body as possible, at the level of your belly button.
- Use your feet to change direction, taking small steps.
- Lead with your hips as you change direction. Keep your shoulders in line with your hips as you move.
- Set down your load carefully, squatting with the knees and hips only.
Keep in mind:
- Do not attempt to lift by bending forward. Bend your hips and knees to squat down to your load, keep it close to your body, and straighten your legs to lift.
- Never lift a heavy object above shoulder level.
- Avoid turning or twisting your body while lifting or holding a heavy object.

Reviews of Little Kwara
They do not necessarily represent the views of Expert Africa.
Little Kwara review
Once again, Kwando Safaris didn't disappoint.
We loved the guide and tracker set-up. Mothusi and Chester were a pleasure to spend four days with. And once again we were out tracking a pair of cheetahs. This time I was not surprised when Chester returned to the vehicle and told us that they were "close". Sure enough, ten minutes later there they were, lounging on a termite mound.....outstanding!!! Half the fun was observing the trackers work. Mothusi was also a wealth of knowledge about bird life in the delta. Another wonderful and friendly camp.
Little Kwara review
Our stay at Little Kwara was perhaps a little coloured by the fact that wild life viewing during our time there was not particularly good. Nothing to do with the guiding, just that the animals were not at home.
The camp was intimate, the tents perhaps a little worn but still comfortable, but the management was maybe a little more "laid back" than the other camps we visited.
We did see a number of lions and a leopard and lots and lots of giraffes - no wild dogs alas.
Great safari experience
Little Kwara surpassed our expectations.
The scenery is stunning, the staff really friendly, lots of bird life, animals viewed at close proximity, boat rides, mokoros and game drives. What more could you ask for.
It was a great stay and makes us want to go back for more Kwando lodges. They understand what makes great vacations.
Little Kwara ... big experience
This was our last camp and we stayed for four nights. It was the smallest with five tents and a total of nine guests. That suited us very well.
The guide and tracker were very pro-active and on a number of occasions we actively tracked animals rather than seeing what turned up. Dutch the guide was very good at positioning the vehicle to get the best light for photographs. Both he and the other guide Tom proved good company at mealtimes and were a mine of information.
All the guests were leaving on the same day so we had a great farewell dinner with dancing and singing. The accommodation here may be a little more basic but our tent was in a great location overlooking the lake and in our eyes was just as good as the other two camps. Particular highlights for us were: watching Dutch and Chester go through the fascinating process of tracking (and finding!) cheetahs; the evening boat dash back from the heronry and our mokoro trip with Tom at the helm and hippos watching our every move.
Little Kwara is great for visiting the heronr
The standard of the tents here was not quite as high as the other camps. There was no electricity in the tent hence no fans. As it is very hot in September during the day we were quite uncomfortable.
There were also small details such as not being given wet flannels on our return from the game drives that meant the service here was not of quite such a high standard as in other camps. However the staff sang to us before dinner on two nights which was very special.
We took a trip out to the heronry on the double decker boat which was the highlight of the trip.
Little Kwara review
Little Kwara was a great start to our trip. We particularly liked the intimacy and informality of the camp which conveyed a real authentic feel.
The real highlight was the guiding which was first-class in a terrain which is very varied with lots of dry land and water. The tent was large, spacious and comfortable, the food was good (though not outstanding) and all the staff were very friendly and helpful throughout.
The highlight of our stay at Little Kwara was seeing the pack of wild dogs seeing off a hyena which they saw as a threat to their 10 puppies followed by the frantic search of the pack to find the puppies who had hidden in the bush and their eventual joyous reunion.
Great Safari at Little Kwara
One highlight after another over our 4 night stay at Little Kwara.
Multiple lion sightings, the cheetah coalition, wild dogs plus all the other expected animals. The thrill of serious tracking to find them. The dedicated and informative guides and trackers.
Plus double decker boat trip into the middle of the Okavango and a mokoro trip around the local lagoon.
Then there was the bull elephant that had made the camp area his territory and tried to join us for the occasional dinner and breakfast. Plus the time he was photographed checking out one of our party through the gaps in the bamboo "fence" of the outdoor shower!
Spacious and comfortable "tents" and common areas, good food and professional and friendly staff.
We intend to return.
Cheetahs striding on the plain
Lions, cheetahs, leopards, elephants. But presented to us in such a skilled manner. An elephant almost joined us in the shower; so close to our room.Read more about the whole safari
Homely Little Kwara
Our experience at this camp was outstanding. The wildlife was fantastic and the guides, Ezzi and Joseph together with trackers, Mike and Chester went out of their way to ensure we observed all of the animals within the concession.
They had a great passion for the area and were able to pass on in depth knowledge of animal behaviour and habits. Staff at the lodge were very friendly and accommodating.
Most staff referred to us by name within the first 24 hours. After 4 days it was almost sad to leave, such was the experience we had at this camp
An absolute delight
Compliments to all staff for making it a great time. This was where we saw a broad range of animals and birdlife.
Guides and trackers Joseph,issy, Chester and mike were exemplary in tracking down animals for us to see.
The only problem was tyre punctures about 7 in one day between two vehicles - maintenance standards must be improved.

This quilt consists of 281 - 9-patches and over 500 different fabric scraps. It was a UFO for over 13 years. The 9-patches were part of an exchange I did with friends years ago. I found them about a month ago as I was cleaning out a closet. A lost treasure that brought back so many good memories of wonderful quilting friends. I wanted to incorporate the friendship star block in it some way and so after doing lots of playing in EQ7 this is what I designed. Paths of friendship crossing and intertwining, memories that will be forever cherished in this 93 x 93 quilt.
Being encouraged for many years by my husband to design a quilt, I began my adventure. As I designed the center block I envisioned an entirely different quilt…certainly not a center block and 12 circles (each made up of 97 pieces of fabric). Quilting done by Judi Madsen using two shades of Kimono silk thread. Two Battings were used: Hobbs 82/20 and a blended batting of cotton/wool.
Celtic Fox
The Celtic fox symbolized a need to think quickly, to employ cleverness and wisdom. Often described as cunning, that word comes from "Kenning", meaning to know and understand. Shape-shifters, illuminated by the moon, they are associated with transformation and the need to take a new approach to our lives. Silent and Swift, Owls are the Crone Goddess's messengers, helping to unmask those who would deceive or harm you. Rabbits are connected to the moon and femininity. They talk to us about conceiving new ideas and holding them in our hearts. In Ireland eating a hare was like eating your own grandmother.
The quilting on the Moon was the most difficult part of this quilt. Three books and Youtube finally helped me to draw that celtic knot work design.
This is my first commission quilt - made for my department director's four-year old granddaughter.
This quilt took 5 years, off and on, to complete. I did the setting completely different than the original pattern, and love the result. It just received Grand Champion at our county fair and will be attending our Colorado State Fair. We had two judges and was is a nationally certified judge, Chris Brown, who gave me and Award of Merit, which is a HUGE honor.
This quilt definitely told me how it wanted to be made. I worked on it off and on over five years. Finally, a year ago I decided to get her finished. I did the setting completely different from the pattern. When the top was finished the gold squares were blank so I made 20 4 1/2" squares, like barn quilts, and appliqued them onto the quilt and it really that little something to this quilt. It just won Grand Champion at our county fair and was also awarded an Award of Merit by one of the judges who is a national judge.
This quilt has been in the works for over 5 years, off and on. Finally in 2015 I decided to finish the dang thing. This quilt definitely told me how to make it, and very loudly. I did the setting very different from the pattern and am thrilled out it turned out. It just received Grand Champion at our local county fair and will be entered in the Colorado State Fair in 2 weeks. It also received an Award of Merit from the judge, who is a national judge. I am very honored and love this quilt.
I have had this pattern over 5 years and have worked off and on, but in 2015 I decided to get the dang thing finished. However, I was stumped as to embroidery. The pattern called for silk ribbon, which I did not want to attempt, so I decided to use variegated embroidery floss and embellish that way. I LOVE how this quilt turned out. You know how a quilt tells you how to make it, this quilt definitely spoke to me and at me, hehe. I didn't like the setting of the pattern and played around with the blocks with scrap fabrics to play with and come up with this idea. When I finished the top the gold squares were empty and blah, so it told me to make barn quilt squares, which I appliqued on. It ended up being a fun quilt. I am proud to say it just received Grand Champion in our local and also one of the judges is a national judge and she gave it an Award of Merit, to which I am extremely honored. She will be going to our State Fair in 2 weeks.
This year long journey started as a challenge to myself to create a modern style quilt and has ended in this final piece. Challenging improvisational appliqué, piecing, and many new techniques were practiced. I have learned plenty, and I'm happy with the final product, but have to acknowledge it is a bit outside the box, especially where traditional quilting is concerned. It is a celebration of my joy in 40 years in church music ministry, playing the organ, singing, and teaching music and band in school.
I love medallion quilts. I think it is because I find multiple borders make a quilt interesting. I also enjoy the math and the challenge of getting everything to fit. This is fairly small, but was great fun to make. I used some fabric I had in my stash. I haven't decided whether to use it as a table topper or a wall hanging.
This is my interpretation of the pattern Forever Blooming by Pearl Pereira of P3 Designs. She first offered this pattern in monthly installments before publishing it. The pattern calls for a light background, but I thought the deep navy really made the colors come out. The background is a navy batik with white spots, that reminds me of stars - hence the name Night Blooms. This quilt won Best of Show at our local quilt guild and the Oklahoma State Fair in 2015.
My Hoffman Challenge 2016 quilt. This quilt represents a happy summer day in a slightly enchanted forest. It is entirely made with some form of applique. I applipieced/pieceliqued the sky, grassy ground, mountains, and path together. All the trees, flowers and butterflies are stitched raw edge applique, and the birds and animals are embroidered on nylon veil and then appliqued onto the quilt. The flower centers are beaded and the birds and animals have hot fix crystals for their eyes. Free motion quilted.
Block taught in workshop.
English paper piecing, 1/2-inch hexagons using freezer paper and Crayola template. Papers and hexagons traced and cut out by hand. Started in 2009. Hand appliqued to border; machine quilted around each flower and each center; faced edging instead of binding.
There are two matching thened blocks throughout, with one being on the back of the quilt with the label (Easter eggs).
Redwork design from The Red Book, Diane Arthurs, one strand floss.
Used leftover blocks from Gelato table runner. Small blocks--technique demonstrated by Alex Anderson on The Quilt Show, Episode 910.
Original table runner using my own hand-dyeds. See companion quilt, Waiting for Spring. Technique for blocks demonstrated by Alex Anderson on The Quilt Show, Episode 910.
Improv piecing, using Fibonacci numbers for spacing. Spider web quilting with Superior Silver Metallic Thread.

Bristols Specialist Wasp Control Service.
Bristol wasp nest removal has been developed and created to help you understand more about wasps, their nests and about wasp control and removal. Every wasp nest we encounter has its own personality – some are aggressive while others hardly register we are there.
Wasps come in many shapes and sizes and that's why our wasp control services also adapt to solve each new nest. Although the principles of control remain the same, safety and logistical needs will always vary depending on the location and size of the wasp nest we are treating.
What we do?
We bring a personal and effective approach to every project we work on.

Enterprise application developer and software architect, focusing primarily on the Microsoft stack and web platform.
I currently work as a consultant in Waltham, Massachusetts. (A job I found on Stack Overflow Careers, thank you very much.) I'm interested in lots of extra-curricular software development activity (user groups, conventions, panels, etc.) as well as general local geekery (gaming, geocaching, anything fun).
Career aspirations involve becoming a better developer, a better architect, and maybe even getting published once I find something about which to write.

Kidnap attempt conviction voidedAugust 03,2014Kidnap attempt
conviction voided
MONTPELIER The Vermont Supreme Court has overturned the conviction of a Swanton man who was sentenced to serve 30 years to life for the attempted abduction of a woman in Burlington.
The justices ordered Chittenden County Superior Court to look again at the case of Harold D. Porter, who was 45 when he was convicted in 2012 in the incident three years earlier.
The Burlington Free Press reports the Supreme Court faulted Judge James Crucitti for allowing police to testify about how they eliminated from suspicion some potential suspects who drove trucks closely matching Porters.
The defense had objected during Porters trial that only 12 of the 20 owners of Vermont-registered trucks similar to Porters were called to testify.MORE IN This Just In

The Northwave Torpedo 3S Shoes are designed for professional riders. Made using the most innovative technological advances, this shoe features cutting-edge solutions and extremely light materials. Perfect for cyclists who demand the highest level of performance, even the small details can be the difference when you reach the finish line.
Northwave shoes are designed with BioMap technology. This means the sole, uppers and components are anatomically compatible with every cyclist's feet and keeps the foot in the right position while pedalling, helping to transfer power directly to the pedals with no wasted energy.
The NRG Air carbon reinforced sole increases stiffness with its new blend of nylon reinforced with fibreglass and enriched with carbon. It features the AirFlow ventilation system for optimal air flow for breathability and to keep your feet comfortable while pedalling.
Multilayer Thermowelded construction is made from a light microfibre and somo large thermowelded mesh vent inserts at the same thickness of a traditional monolayer. This results in greater comfort and reduced weight. The integrated unibody upper construction features a heel retention system in the structure, with no need for external elements.
The 3 asymmetrical straps are moved to the centre to conform to the anatomy of the foot and reduce pressure on the sensitive side area. These straps have been made lighter as all superfluous elements have been removed, with thinner thicknesses and discharged central areas, this also maintains maximum grip. - A.D.

Loss of Lives in Clinical Trials...
Keep the Opportunities, Lose the Opportunists
Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity
Clinical-Style Validation, Regulation, and Quality Control...
FDA Commissioner Margaret A. Hamburg, M.D., joined several biopharma leaders and supporters Wednesday in pressing Congress for quick approval of the fifth authorization of the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA V). They tied the measure as much to its benefits to industry and the broader economy as to the agency's goals.
Testifying before the House Committee on Energy and Commerce's Subcommittee on Health, Dr. Hamburg said FDA would continue the industry-friendlier approach reflected in both several recent policy actions and the agency's self-description as America's Innovation Agency: "It is critical to our public health mission that we work with industry and other stakeholders to take steps to reduce uncertainty and increase the success of all phases of drug development."
Under PDUFA V, she noted, FDA will hold a public meeting to discuss potential strategies to facilitate scientific exchanges on biomarker issues between the agency and drug developers. Dr. Hamburg also stated: FDA's struggle to meet PDUFA review timeframes soon after enactment of the Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act of 2007, she said, reflected drug developers increasingly going overseas for clinical trials and drug manufacturing as much as the law's increased demands on the agency.
"While foreign sites can play an important role in enabling access to new drugs, the need to travel much farther to conduct pre-approval inspections for clinical trials and manufacturing sites overseas has created additional challenges for completion of FDA's review within the existing PDUFA review performance goals," Dr. Hamburg said.
She also used her testimony to continue trumpeting FDA successes both last year and during the two decades since PDUFA's first authorization. In 2011, she said, all but one of the 35 new medicines approved by FDA met PDUFA targets for review timeframes, while 24 of the 35 were approved by FDA ahead of other global regulatory agencies. And since 1992, she added, the time required for the FDA approval phase of new drug development has been halved from an average two years to 1.1 years.
While the hearing was titled: "Reauthorization of PDUFA: What it means for Jobs, Innovation and Patients," it was left to others to make more direct connections between FDA's performance and its effect on jobs and innovation. Richard F. Pops, testifying on behalf of the Biotechnology Industry Organization (BIO), praised PDUFA as "common sense recommendations that will help advance innovative new cures for patients." The praise was not surprising, since BIO and its pharma industry counterpart, Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA), spent roughly a year in talks with FDA officials to hammer out PDUFA V.
"A fundamental part of biotechnology companies' ability to innovate and raise private investment is having an FDA with the resources and infrastructure required to review and approve innovative products effectively, consistently, and in a timely manner based on the best available science," Pops said.
"Unpredictability and inconsistency in the review process, suboptimal communication with sponsors, and decreased FDA performance not only hinders patient access to new treatments but also negatively affects the ability of biotechnology companies to raise funding to support clinical development and ongoing innovation," Pops added. "This undermines economic growth in the biotechnology sector as well as biomedical research into key public health priorities."
David E. Wheadon, M.D., PhRMA's svp, scientific and regulatory affairs, cited a 2011 Battelle report pegging the size of the industry two years earlier as 674,192 direct jobs and a total four million jobs supported in 2009, with an economic output of $918 billion. Those numbers are likely larger today, since the economy was still reeling from the financial market near-collapse of a year earlier and has grown since then, albeit not as robustly as in past recoveries.
"Because PDUFA has injected greater consistency, transparency and predictability into the FDA's drug review process, its reauthorization is an important factor in ensuring that biopharmaceutical companies maintain this level of job creation and economic growth," Dr. Wheadon concluded.
For California, the state with the largest biopharma presence, the industry represents about 270,000 direct jobs with salaries averaging $76,000 a year, David L. Gollaher, Ph.D., president and CEO of the California Healthcare Institute, told Congress. "PDUFA V represents the next step in a successful, ongoing partnership between the FDA and industry," Dr. Gollaher said, and should balance the need to protect public safety "with the importance of continuing robust private-sector investment into new drugs and biologics.
"In the long view, public health and the economic health and competitiveness of the biomedical industry are two sides of the same coin. Without immense investment, the next generation of breakthroughs for our greatest healthcare needs will never materialize. Nor will the jobs to produce them," Dr. Gollaher pointed out.

Album Summary
Notes & Reviews:
Ondine is pleased to announce the second CD of an Enescu cycle with the Tampere Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of its former artistic director Hannu Lintu. For this release the Ouverture de concert sur des thèmes dans le caractere populaire roumain Op. 32 and the Symphony No. 3 Op. 21 were recorded, featuring the Tampere Philharmonic Choir in the third symphony. The first release (ODE 1196-2), featuring Symphony No. 2 Op. 17 and the Chamber Symphony Op. 33, was highly praised by the critics and nominated for the Gramophone Awards 2013.
MusicWeb International, 6th January 2014
Throughout Hannu Lintu conducts the Tampere Phil with real penetration and his obvious advocacy for the music strongly held my attention. Lintu's interpretation ensures the emotional impact of the writing comes over with telling effect.
Gramophone Magazine, January 2014
What I especially appreciate about this production is its clarity, a crucial virtue in music that can summon some pretty crowded climaxes. You only need to venture two minutes into the opening movement to sample the first of them.

A professional artist''s model in the 1920s and 1930s, Marguerite Kelsey (1908?-1995) was renowned for her gracefulness and ability to hold poses for a long time. Her dress and shoes were chosen and purchased by Frampton for this portrait. They are both classical and, being uncorseted, deliberately modern. The simple, short-sleeved pale tunic dress worn with low-heeled shoes and her straight hair were all essential elements of the fashionable ''garçonne style'' created by the couturiers Coco Chanel and Jean Patou from the mid-1920s.

Skip to comments.Goodbye, testosterone
Posted on 01/28/2003 5:15:28 PM PST by NYpeanut
Feeling anxious? Irritable, too? Has the stamina that used to fuel days and burn up the nights hit the road - along with a sex drive that has long been stuck in neutral?
Check your engines, gentlemen. There are thousands of males out there in the same sorry state, but now - thanks to a research scientist in Scotland - the condition has a name.
"Irritable Male Syndrome," that state of hypersensitivity, frustration and anger is now used to describe men who suffer from testosterone deficiency. And while the condition may have been around for ages, the diagnosis suggests that men may be just as vulnerable to the complexities of biology as women.
"This is very common," said Dr. Philip Aliotta. "Low levels of testosterone manifest in irritability, depression, weak muscles, loss of self-esteem. Men have no interest in the joys of life. Their libido has dropped. Their interest in intimacy is declining. Sexual function diminishes. Work performance suffers. Oftentimes they are misdiagnosed as being depressed.
"It's called a lot of names," added the Amherst urologist who has treated scores of men with testosterone replacement therapy. "It's the aging process. It's andropause. But Irritable Male Syndrome? I find that offensive. It implies we are walking around ready to beat up people."
At age 41, Nick Constantino knew something was wrong. The even-tempered insurance broker found himself getting more and more grouchy, chalking up his snarly demeanor to lack of sleep. After all, he was still adapting to his new lifestyle. Just a few years into his first marriage, the former bachelor in one swoop had become husband and father of three. No wonder his energy level was down, he rationalized. But one night last December as he was watching television, a commercial cried out to him.
"You could have knocked me off the couch," Constantino recalled during a phone interview from his home in Middletown. "Everything was me: tired, irritable, reduced sexual desire. I had been attributing a lot of it to just getting older. I called my doctor the next day and went in for a blood test."
The testing determined that Constantino was testosterone deficient, operating on levels that were two-thirds below normal. Hormone replacement therapy was suggested, and now - 45 days into the treatment - Constantino believes the patch that adorns his arm is working.
For years, menopausal women have taken hormone replacement therapy, using patches that secrete estrogen into their bodies. Now men are seeking the same hormonal elixir to revive their lagging sex lives and boost their energy.
"A lot of it is age-related," said urologist Aliotta. "But women can go through menopause at an early age, and men in their 30s and 40s can have testes that fail them. There's not a whole heck of a lot that makes the sexes different. The same physiology flows through men and women.
"Generally, they start in their 40s, complaining of sexual dysfunction," Aliotta said. "They tell you they have no interest in sex and they don't understand why. Their significant other may be relieved or upset. If the significant other doesn't understand, they tend to personalize it and all hell breaks loose in a relationship."
Testosterone is a hormone made in the testes under the guidance of signals from the pituitary gland. It surges through the body controlling male sexuality. Without it, puberty in boys would not take place. Neither would sexual performance. It is in fact erectile dysfunction that brings many men to their doctors' offices.
"I am a firm believer that when you have a problem, you go to the doctor," said John, a former railroad brakeman from Amherst, who asked his last name not be used in this story. "I was irritable. Small things were bothering me that I normally would not be concerned about."
At age 61, John is a diabetic with a heart condition and was advised against Viagra by his doctor, yet he simply could not perform sexually. After consulting with his urologist, John began receiving monthly injections of testosterone.
"It's worked fine," he said. "And I tell my friends about it, too. It's a thing that men don't like talking about, but they like hearing it. I'm not going back to where I was in my 20s, but I do have more desire."
This so-called testosterone revolution is not without drawbacks, doctors caution. Just as hormone therapy for women has been linked to increased risk of breast cancer, stroke and heart disease, testosterone therapy could trigger prostate cancer, as well as increase the danger of blood clotting. Also, as Aliotta pointed out, since testosterone is directly linked to prostate growth, men with prostate cancer are unlikely candidates for hormone replacement therapy. In addition, younger men - in their 30s and 40s - who are testosterone deficient may be at risk for developing osteoporosis.
Aliotta offers testosterone replacement in one of three forms:
patch, daily

Carol Conklin, a clinical social worker with City Gate Counseling Center, specializes in relationships in crisis. Many of her clients who report incidents of erectile dysfunction are hesitant to speak out, she said.
"I see men whose testosterone seems to be waning, who may get into addictive behavior such as Internet pornography and sexual addiction," Conklin said. "But when you think about irritability, anger is its bigger piece, the only valid emotion men grow up with."
The term "Irritable Male Syndrome" was first coined in spring 2002 by a scientist in Edinburgh, Scotland. An expert on human reproductive science, Gerald Lincoln of the Medical Research Council came up with the term after studying the mating cycle of Soay sheep. In autumn, Lincoln found that the rams' testosterone levels soared and they mated. In the winter testosterone levels fell, and the rams became nervous, withdrawn and disinterested in sex. Lincoln has also observed similar behavioral changes in red deer, reindeer and Indian elephants.
Author Jed Diamond is writing a book on men who suffer from Irritable Male Syndrome. Men, he states, express their symptoms in two ways.
"It can be "acted out' or "acted in,' " Diamond writes. "Sometimes men express these feelings outwardly, becoming angry, blaming, defensive or demanding. At other times the irritability is turned within and they feel anxious, tense, sad or troubled. Many times men go back and forth and their relationship becomes an emotional roller coaster."
Many of these troubled men and their significant others seek counseling, according to an area psychotherapist.
"One of the manifestations is anger," said Andre Toth. "And people are characterized as being moody all of a sudden. It's not only related to sexuality, but the general aging process.
"Men have always been lousy at expressing sadness," Toth added. "We are much better at anger. When we don't know what to do, we get angry. It's our middle name."
Let's talk about two things, actually: "hope" and "interest". First, "hope". How many men my age and older (ok, even younger) find themselves in lives that they despise? They are in jobs they dislike intensely, dead-end or otherwise. They start to feel that the dreams they had as younger men just probably aren't going to come true. They get up......have some coffee, read a paper (scan FR?), shower/dress, and commute to a job they don't give a flying fiddler's damn about but pays the bills. They find themselves and their families in lifestyles that demand a certain income level, so they don't dare take what have become "unnecessary risks" any more. I consider this a form of "male neutering", harsh as that may sound. Too many of us become slaves to a "lifestyle" vs. working in a field that provides true satisfaction..............hope for a satisfying, fulfilling career.
As far as "interest" is concerned........and this one may be dicey, but I do NOT intend to insult either men OR women with this little theory / observation.
Maybe the men aren't as interested in sex because that woman they married 20+ years ago just doesn't interest them sexually any longer. Maybe she put on 30 pounds in the intervening years and doesn't take care of herself otherwise.........or JUST as likely, same thing happened to him. so her lack of interest in him is manifested, so he loses interest in her.
IOW, they stop giving a damn about how they look to each other........how attractive they are to each other.........how to be romantic. It's hard to be aroused by a woman who simply cannot arouse you. Take the guys in the article and plop them in front of a nubile 25-year-old and I guarantee that in the majority of cases, you won't see any sign of "sexual dysfunction". Both sexes are guilty of this. It takes work, it takes effort on behalf of both in a marriage.
Trouble is, too many are just too damned lazy to care enough to rectify the situation. That's a sad fact. Hit the gym? Can't be bothered; too time consuming. Diet? Forget it; never works. Get off the sofa and put away the remote control? Well gee, what else am I going to do on a Saturday evening?
People allow themselves to get "comfortable".....and they shouldn't.
I consider myself very, very fortunate in that area, for I've been married to a stunningly beautiful 6' blonde for 25 years (next month) and has given me 7 beautiful children. I want her every bit as much now as I did 25 years ago.......if not more. I try to do things to see to it that I'm worthy of her attention as well.
None of the above necessarily involves a lack of testosterone........but I'll add (as delicately as possible) that due to a cancer scare some years ago and resultant surgery, I'm now producing exactly half the testosterone I was before that surgery. Didn't change a thing. Oh......as for the first, I love what I do for a living and do all that I can to be damned good at it. I challenge myself far more than any "boss" ever could, and I love exceeding my own goals in that job.
Hope this helps somebody.
Hmmmmmmm . . . . . . . . . . .
Specialist in treating agoraphobia?
Actually, I think another way to sum up what you've described is to say that these people have become average -- just like any other middle aged person. It takes a strong desire to do something in life to keep yourself moving ahead.
" anger is ... the only valid emotion men grow up with"
If men are "lousy" at expressing sadness, only emoting anger, how does one account for the music, literature, architecture, engineering, and art that suggests that men are capable of a profound range of emotion, beyond angry/sad? And how do you account for the many 10's of millions of men that slide into middle age, make less testosterone, get laid less, and yet avoid becoming reactive emotional clods, and still manage to make their 40's and up the best years of their lives? Also, why is it supposed that men have to express emotions, particularly sadness, in a manner consistent with females for that emotion to be valid? Just because I am not over there whining on your shoulder doesn't mean I can't feel sad.
Damn, there I go, getting all emotional. Time to change my patch.
Well, in part it depends on what the original level was. Half of 700 is a lot better than half of 300. Then again, you may be one of those lucky souls who has a more efficient biochemistry, and need less to get the same effect.
Unfortuantely, for many people, the problem is very real, and in many cases, either undiagonosed or wrongly diagnosed. I've got the problem, and my level had dropped to less than 100 (normal range is 300-1000ug/dl), and in fact I had developed a "skipped pulse" heart rhythm. Fortunately, my physician recognized that "heart rhythm" tic as a potential symptom of low testosterone, and had a blood test done (after sending me to a cardiologist to be sure nothing else was going on). On seeing the results she gave me a testosterone shot, and the effect was magical. The heart rhythm problem disappeared IMMEDIATELY, and a lot of other nebulous irritations/physical complaints also vanished. Amazingly enough, I was NOT having signifcant problems with libido/sexuality at the time.
I suspect that many older males who develop these heart rhythm abnormalities and get put on medications to "regularize the heartbeat" (George Bush I, for instance) are actually suffering from a drop in testosterone.
The article doesn't mention the BEST method of supplementation, with is an under-the-skin timed release implant done every six months, but it is difficult to find a doctor who 1) knows about the procedure, and 2) is willing to do it.
I agree with you on the derivatized analogs of testosterone used in shots, but the testosterone used in the gel and time-release implants is the same as that produced by the body.
Your postulated "bad thing" only applies to weight-lifters and other steroid abusers who try to boost their testosterone to un-naturally high levels to build body mass. Bringing an un-naturally LOW testosterone level up to normal is another matter entirely. The reason you do that is your body no longer makes enough hormone. Those of us on hormone replacement therapy know we will be doing so indefinitely. Why would we stop??
".... And in fact, you pansy-ass little reporter geek, I think I'd like to kick your teeth down your throat."
Except that you no longer have to shave your eyelids, toenails, and teeth.... ;-)
I like your theory.
Something I have noted..
If you know a married woman or perhaps one in a relationship that suddenly starts losing weight, buying new clothes, generally 'fixin' herself up, she is getting ready to make the 'break'.( This may hold true for men also)
On the other hand, I like men having our very own syndrome. It wasn't fair that women had PMS, post-partum syndrome, etc. to blame their action on.
Now, if I do something stupid I'll use the IMS defense.(G)
Interesting...shows emotional immaturity.
Actually, right afterward, I told family / friends that I was just fine, etc., etc.............except I had this indescribable urge to match sofa and wallpaper patterns......:)
Wellllp...I married a Ralph Cramden, Archie Bunker, Fred Flintstone sorta guy. Man, I am hoping he couldn't get grumpier, my sister always told me he'd mellow with age!
Please don't take offense, but "You aren't the man I married/met" always appears to me to be the biggest cop-out in the planet. You marry that man, but you discover he has faults (tragic or otherwise), and/or he changes. You must want to WORK on the marriage, which it sounds like you are willing to do.
I'm the same height and weight I've been since I was 18, excluding pregnancies, and even though middle age has made me a little softer, I'm on the low end of the weight scale at 120 at 5"6". I'll never be on the cover of a magazine, but I don't need to wear a paper bag over my head, either.
Honestly, your husband probably doesn't care as much about this as you care. I don't know how to put this gently but when the lights go out, it all kinda looks the same and a little softening is a good thing.
Marriage is a nice institution, but who wants to be institutionalized?
Your commitment is to the marriage, not the person. The person will change.
His problem could be physical. Do some research on the hazards of nerve damage in "sensitive" areas of some male cyclists.
Use your Google search engine and you'll read many articles confirming this. Very interesting.

Were American flags banned at the Democratic convention? Is social media poisoning America? Scoot got a text from a listener who wanted his opinion on the Democratic Party banning American flags from their convention. When I got off the air yesterday – I did some research and found out that a few right-wing websites were reporting that the Democrats had banned the American flag from the convention because it was offensive to too many Democrats. And the websites offered visual evidence of the absence of American flags at the Democrats' convention. But the "so-called evidence" was totally false and presented an unfair depiction of the two conventions. Have you fallen for something that was sent to you that wasn't true but only sent to promote a biased view? What was it? What did someone send you? Do you see more vile, disturbing things on social media or more positive, enlightening or fun stuff? And, which is more concerning – Facebook or Twitter? How do we change social media being used to poison America?

Protest over gay kiss arrest in Rome
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
Yikes, "Roberto and Michele were only kissing….", it wasn't me Officer, I was nowhere near Rome at the time!
Is there much public display of affection between same-sex couples in the UK and if so, what is the public reaction to it in general. Are such displays now protected by the new equality laws? Am curious to know.We don't see much of it here in the U.S. except perhaps in gay areas in Greenwich Village in New York City, but even there you don't see it that much. Robert, ex-pat Brit.
I think I'm correct in saying that the Law is the same for males and females. Thus whatever is OK for a straight couple is OK for Gays too.Thus, straights and Gays could be prosecuted for, say, having it off in a car in a car park using the same law.That said, I still don't think two me would dare to walk hand in hand down Brixton High Street and expect to come out the other end alive!!
yes if they where 'having it off' in full view of the public perhaps but may i remind you that witnesses said that they where only kissing.
Roberto, thanks so much for the explanation, good to hear the law is equal on that one.Robert, ex-pat Brit.
You can write a protest letter to Romano Prodi!We should all do that to support them! Exactly that happened with me in London 2 years ago (only security came to me to stop me and I was not arrested, but nearly!).
Joerg… if anything like that ever happens again to you..don't even discuss it… call the police and have the dickhead done. We don't have to put up with that sort of crap in this country.
Robert… in answer to your question… the laws in Britain on public affection…and just about everything else are equal for everyone whether gay, lesbian, straight, bi, drag queen, whatever. In real life, like the rest of Western Europe…gay people in Britain are more affecionate in public when in gay areas of cities… from what I see anyway.
Jason, thanks so much for the information, I appreciate it.Robert, ex-pat Brit.
Joerg, what happened two years ago? To digress, I've just learned that Italy's laws now grant asylum to gay people fleeing persecution in their own countries and are not forced to return, unlike our own. How embarrassing is that?Robert, ex-pat Brit.

Now, I've never been a political candidate myself, but with having experience working around and for politicians, I can say that it is a wise idea to vocally support the political action that is happening at the state, city, town, etc that you are campaigning at.
Perhaps Mitt Romney was not aware of this. After stopping by a call center in Ohio that was advocating for voters to support ending collective bargaining rights for unions in the state, as well as a separate measure that would keep the state out of health care exchanges.
When asked how he felt about the issues, Romney said, well, nothing.
"I am not speaking about the particular ballot issues," said Romney. "Those are up to the people of Ohio. But I certainly support the efforts of the governor to reign in the scale of government. I am not terribly familiar with the two ballot initiatives. But I am certainly supportive of the Republican Party's efforts here."
WHAT?! Needless to say, the GOP wasn't particularly excited by the "support." Conservative leaders instantly lined up to pummel Romney over his comments. He's against a flat tax, now he's for it. He says he's against ObamaCare, but was for the individual mandate and susbidies that are central to ObamaCare. He thinks that collective bargaining issues should be left for states to decide if he's Ohio, but he took the opposite position when he was in New Hampshire. This is just another statement in a long line of statements that will raise more doubts about what kind of President Mitt Romney would be in the minds of many Republican primary voters.
