I now know that there is a Phreedom Wiki. IMHO it is currently the invisible wiki. It needs to be made VERY visible.
Can we have it top of the page – every page – a big WIKI button please.
BTW it is currently here:
http://www.phreesoft.com/wiki/index.php?title=Main_PageApril 15, 2013 at 2:22 pm #36221
Cats out of the bag now 😆August 24, 2013 at 6:33 pm #36223
You know what I'm going to ask now, don't you …
Where has it gone? 😀
ps – I have decided to include some helpful directions to new visitors in my 'Signature' space at the bottom of each page as I reckon that visitors aren't finding these two critical areas of the PB Forum.August 24, 2013 at 7:36 pm #36222
The wiki was getting spammed HEAVILY to the point that my ISP threatened to shut down the site! (my db backup was over 12GB) I have removed the wiki from the new site and am looking for a better way to allow for user contribution without the heavy maintenance of cleaning out the spam.
I welcome any ideas. Remember that this is an open source project and all time is volunteered. The solution must have adequate anti-spam measures in place to keep the maintenance down.
I would be willing (and probably Alvin also) to accept write-ups from users and augment the website support pages, help files, and HowTos.
DaveAugust 24, 2013 at 7:50 pm #36224
Thanks for the very quick response.
I totally appreciate what you are saying and I am aware that the previous Wiki was spammed to destruction also. However, there MUST be a solution – after all, other web forums operate Wiki's, don't they.
Might I be so bold to suggest an interim Wiki plan. Can't we have a temporary READ ONLY Wiki whilst a better solution is found. I know that this might seem to defeat the main objective of a Wiki, however, having a Read-Only Wiki is vastly better than not having one at all.
Why couldn't Forum members submit their Wiki articles / ideas / thoughts on the Forum … actually, I think that Alvin was doing just this, wasn't he. Copying relevant stuff over onto the old Wiki.
Perhaps something like this:
Once again, thank you for an excellent bit of software.
CharlesAugust 25, 2013 at 8:14 pm #36225
That might be doable. I would like to build the website and help manual and forum submissions or direct submissions would leave the placement of the content up to the admins to place it in the website or help files.
DaveAugust 26, 2013 at 12:22 am #36226
I'm willing to help with this if it is something like the moderation that I am currently doing. I would like to help, I just don't have enough experience with the software yet to really add anything. But I can definitely help review submissions, approve them and put them in the right place.

Is Google an Advertising Company?
Reading one of John Gruber's pieces comparing iOS and Android, which I mostly skimmed because I grow tired of reading a fanboi's attempts at measured reasoning, I bounced to the end and caught a sentence I've heard at least once before:
Google is an advertising company that builds popular services that command large audiences.
I remember Justin (@oracletechnet) saying that years ago. I don't remember why or in what context, but it stuck with me as curious.
I don't see Google as an advertising company, even though the lion's share of their money comes from ads. I see them as a technology company, a mix of software, hardware and over-the-air (ok fine, cloud) services. This is what they do.
But is this what they are?
I don't disagree with the assertion that Google is an advertising company. It just feels like the answer to a totally different question. Like someone asked you what you want to eat, and you replied "I prefer a four-wheel drive super car."
Then again, I'm too close to the problem to see clearly, so what do you think?
Incidentally, Google has had a major week, Nexus S, Gingerbread, Honeycomb tablets, Chrome OS tablets, eBook store and my Google TV review.
Borderline epic.

I'd stick it in "media", like TV and newspapers. They are a delivery mechanism, supplying enough 'content' to eyeballs to make the adverts acceptable. The tech stack is just there to support content delivery. But they do get revenue from enterprise sales of Google Apps, Maps etc, so it doesn't fit cleanly into a single category.
Now is Apple a tech company or, with iTunes, a retailer ?
Jake Says:
December 10th, 2010 at 3:54 pm
Gruber calls Apple a retailer.
I may need to reevaluate my tech company definition. Something about Google as an ad company doesn't sit right, but everyone makes good arguments for that definition.
John E. Bredehoft (Empoprises) Says:
December 10th, 2010 at 7:43 pm
Distinguish between the "what" and the "why." What does Google do? Technology? Why? To get all those eyeballs looking at the ads.
Of course, if you use the same method to evaluate other companies, then the New York Times and CBS are also advertising companies (although both of them get revenue from other sources, such as cable/satellite subscribers).
Jake Says:
December 10th, 2010 at 8:49 pm
I don't think people bother with that distinction, which is what makes this such an interesting question. It's all about initial reaction.
joel garry Says:
December 11th, 2010 at 12:56 am
I've been saying it for a long time in many places too, including this: http://www.lessonsoffailure.com/companies/how-i-learned-to-love-new-evil-empire-oracle/
It's not a totally different question. In the business game, money is the measure. You must always ask, "where does the money come from? Where does it go? How should we expect this to change in the future?" Anything else is little more than marketing fluff, like the clueless guy who wants to hire you to write "the next twitter."
Now, it is ok to be too close and only feel the the elephant as a tree trunk, if you make nail clipper/woodchippers.

if you're a lemming.
Jake Says:
December 11th, 2010 at 5:48 pm
I dunno if money is always measure. Apple doesn't strike me as a retailer, but others argue so. I suppose the big rub for me is that Google creates technology; they don't really create ads.
So, when asked what a company "does," I don't answer "makes money" or "sells ads" if they actually create something.
Jake Says:
December 11th, 2010 at 5:49 pm
So, you're a lemming if you think Google's an advertising company? Or you're a lemming if you think they do technology? Or you don't make a distinction?
oraclenerd Says:
December 14th, 2010 at 12:35 am
I do not see Google as an advertising company in any way shape or form. It doesn't make it true though. I use the tools; Search, Docs, GMail, etc.
I should know better too…I read alot, I know how they make money, but it doesn't change how I think about them. Yes, it is eyeballs, I get it. Just doesn't change my perception though.
joel garry Says:
December 14th, 2010 at 1:48 am
All that shows is you view product creation as productivity. In a sane world, you would be right.
But that is not how productivity is defined. And the world isn't necessarily sane.
Think of Ford and GM (before the recent troubles). You think they are car companies, right? And yet, for quite a bit of time, they were more finance companies – even a lot of production was shoved into rental companies, owned by each, forcing both income and writeoffs. Now look at them – most of their troubles were ultimately finance based. Ford managed to come out ahead not because of product, but because of defensive financial maneuvers.
The Emperor's what and why distinction is very good, as is Gary's. The definition of what a company does will vary by the audience you are writing for. And of course, anything you write will be filtered and adjusted by the audience.
A new company needs to grow and make money, or it will die, no matter how good its product is. Angel investors or product development incubators only last for so long, the little birdie needs to get tossed from the nest and fly on its own. Even Angry Birds followed many, many losers, and will spawn many more.
Jake Says:
December 14th, 2010 at 4:08 pm
Same here, but I think we may be whistling in the dark.
Jake Says:
December 14th, 2010 at 4:12 pm
You guys all make sense, but my mind is trained to measure goods and services when asked what a company does or is. So, everyone one is right, but we can't agree on a single answer.

We received this lovely photograph from one of our Young Grower's Harry. He bought a Chestnut Grow Kit from 'The Green Fair' at The Sustainability Centre, Petersfield on May 9th.
He has been watering and looking after his own kit and this is a picture of his picked mushrooms and is very pleased with his first crop.
17th March 2016 Our Pre Growing Chestnut and White mushroom grow kits are now available online at Marshalls. Mushrooms ready to pick in days.
3rd March 2016 - Our "lidded" long life kits are now available on Amazon, perfect for gifts, These kits are comprised of two parts, one casing one compost and the growing process is only started when these are combined, ideal for people who prefer the "DIY" side of things.
- Arborio rice
- Chicken stock
- Runner beans
- Onions
- Garlic
- Oyster mushrooms
- Chard
- Courgette flowers
- Thyme
- Parsely
- Parmesan
"This time of year we have an abundance of runner beans from the allotment but sometimes it can be hard to know what to do with them. The kid's know that runner beans make you run fast so all I need to do is come up with new ways to cook them each day. We had a lovely risotto with home grown oyster mushrooms and runner beans the other day. I left out the wine as the kids are not huge fans of wine but filled the risotto with vegetables and flavor. This turned out to be a clean summery risotto that even grandma liked!
It's perhaps a little time consuming if you make your own chicken stock, but so rewarding and well worth doing. We buy chicken carcasses sometimes from the farm shop and make big batches of veg and chicken stock that we freeze.
The mushrooms grow in a compost filled bucket in the darkest corner of the kitchen. An ingenious invention that will grow crop after crop. You can find it here: http://www.merryhill-mushrooms.co.uk/"
19th November 2015 - Christmas Gifts
From 19 November - 21 December, all kits sold by Amazon, Ebay and Nutley's will be sent with a Lid. This allows the kit to remain dormant, so it can be given as a gift. To start the kit, simply spread the casing bag on top and begin spraying.

This thing made my CTS-V sound awesome! It really opens it up and it sounds like a jet taking off when you get on it. I haven't had too much time with it behind the wheel yet but it seems like it added some power. It is definitely a well mad unit and a great value for the price. It was a bit more complicated then the K&N intake I put on my C6 but still totally worth it.

PA Governor Rendell Appoints Frank Friel Chairman of Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board
Nationally Recognized Security Expert, Former Philadelphia Homicide Detective
is First of Three Gubernatorial Appointees
Aug 11, 2004, 01:00 ET from Pennsylvania Office of the Governor
HARRISBURG, Pa., Aug. 11 /PRNewswire/ -- Pennsylvania Governor Edward G. Rendell today appointed Frank Friel as Chairman of the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board for a three-year term, the first of three gubernatorial appointments. Friel is a veteran of the Philadelphia Police Homicide Unit and nationally recognized expert in security, police procedures, investigative practices and organized crime. Friel is currently the Director of Security and Parking at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. "Frank Friel was made for this job - a respected law man with years of fighting organized crime under his belt," said Governor Rendell. "I can think of no one better to serve Pennsylvania on this Board. "Frank's integrity is unquestionable, and his commitment to upholding the law and expertise in the field of organized crime will be invaluable to the full Board and ultimately our citizens. The fact that he will serve as Chairman underscores the critical importance of integrity throughout this process." Friel, 62, spent more than 30 years in law enforcement. After rising through the ranks from Patrolman to one of the top homicide detectives in the Philadelphia Police Department, Friel became the Director of Public Safety for Bensalem Township. Friel is credited with directing investigations into Philadelphia La Cosa Nostra murders and successfully prosecuting more than 60 organized crime members and associates - including notorious mobster Nicky Scarfo and many of his henchmen, Harry "The Hunchback" Riccobene, Salvatore "Chucky" Merlino and Lawrence "Yogi" Merlino, uncle and father of current Philadelphia mob boss Joseph Merlino. Friel's work led to the establishment of a network of organized crime informants that still provides both historical and current information on La Cosa Nostra family illegal activities. "Working with the Legislature, we included serious anti-crime and anti- corruption measures in our state's expanded gaming laws," said Governor Rendell. "Frank Friel will help to ensure that the right people get gaming licenses and that the Pennsylvania gaming industry is not plagued by corruption and never will be infiltrated by organized crime." "I am gratified and excited by this appointment," said Friel. "My extensive experience with organized crime prosecutions will allow me to assist the Board in adopting and implementing rules, regulations and enforcement procedures that will ensure that expanded gaming is conducted in Pennsylvania openly, honestly and without corruption of any kind. I look forward to working over the next months with the Governor's office and other stakeholders - including my fellow Board members - to be in a position to begin the substantial work of the Board early in the Fall." The Gaming Control Board will oversee all licensing and operations of gaming venues. The Board will: -- Issue, deny, renew, revoke or suspend issuance of any license or permit. -- Enforce the provisions of the bill by, among other things, examining witnesses and issuing subpoenas and document requests. -- Develop and implement an affirmative action plan. -- Require that licensees submit financial reports. -- Make sure that slot machines are properly inspected and certified. -- Require that anyone under 21 years of age not be permitted to use slot machines. -- Ensure that the Department of Revenue and Pennsylvania State Police use their full enforcement powers to protect our citizens. -- Conduct open proceedings in accordance with Pennsylvania law. The Pennsylvania State Police, with the assistance of the Attorney General, will conduct extensive background checks on any person investing in, managing or being employed in any of the gaming facilities. In addition, these same background checks will be conducted on any person serving on the Gaming Control Board. Friel's appointment is subject to completion of a successful State Police background check. CONTACT: Kate Philips, Pennsylvania Office of the Governor, +1-717-783-1116.

During her tenure at GMC, she has held several leadership positions in the department of pediatrics, including director of the newborn nursery from 1988 to 1996, director from the pediatric residency program from 1998 to 2001 and resident continuity clinical director, a post she has held since 1996. In addition to her clinical appointments, Dr. Maksimak also spent nearly 20 years as a clinical assistant professor at Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia, and since 2007 has held the same position with Temple University, also in Philadelphia.
"Throughout her illustrious career, Dr. Maksimak has displayed a level of professionalism and leadership that made her the unquestionable choice for this position," said Michael Ryan, D.O., chairman, Janet Weis Children's Hospital. "We're confident that the youngest patients in our region are in the most caring and capable hands with Dr. Maksimak at the helm."
Prior to joining Geisinger, Dr. Makismak spent two years in private practice in Williamsport. She also spent one year as an emergency department attending pediatrician at Harvard University's Boston Children's Hospital Medical Center, where she completed a pediatric fellowship in 1982. A 1978 graduate of the Pennsylvania State University School of Medicine, Dr. Maksimak completed a pediatrics internship and residency at the University of California-Los Angeles Hospital and Clinics in 1979 and 1981 respectively.
Dr. Maksimak is board certified in pediatrics and a member of the Northeastern Pennsylvania Pediatric Association, Pennsylvania Medical Society and Montour County Medical Society. She is also a fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics, a distinction she has held since 1984.

The proposed Desert Diamond West Valley Resort and Casino in Glendale has applied for a liquor license with the Arizona Department of Liquor Licenses and Control. As residents in Glendale are aware, the proposed location is adjacent to Raymond S. Kellis High School and several residential neighborhoods. Serving liquor at the casino means more drunk drivers on the roads, congested traffic, and late night activity in an otherwise quiet community.
The Department allows a short window to file protests for liquor license applications. We encourage residents of Glendale, particularly those near the proposed casino, to file protests with the State Liquor Board. Alcohol service at all hours of day and night does not belong in neighborhoods or near impressionable youth. Call us to pledge your support and attend the public hearing 623-633-2031. Get involved and fight back!

Bhagavad Gita
Of all religio-philosophical portions of the Mahabharata the Bhagavad Gita (song of the Lord), usually called the Gita, is indubitably of the highest merit and the most popular. It is a part of the Bhishmaparvan. The Gita has become in the last hundred and fifty years the subject of numerous editions, translations, commentaries and discussions. Lokhamanya Tilak calls it " a most luminous and priceless gem which makes us masters of spiritual wisdom." The oldest commentary available now is that of Adi Sankaracharya. Among the more famous bhashyas of post Sankara period are those of Ramanujacharya, Madhusudana Saraswathi and Sridhara.

What People Are Saying About Jaipur
The city of royals a site out of the world
The culture and the life of the people in jaipur is a thing which I craved for upon my visit to india. I made the journey with rehman to jaipur and saw the amazing culture , clothing and cuisine there. It's surely is a loving site and I have to thank moin and his team to help me in this journey
wonderful trip in Amber and Jaipur with well informed guide
The mid way place we stopped at on the way back to Delhi was horrible with very unpleasant staff. Jaipur itself and Amber are most fascinating and the history most interesting. The guide (Dipal I think) was someone who took time to explain things, being from Jaipur himself. Perhaps it would be good to get some notes which the guides could give touristsd after the trip since it would impregnate it more in one's mind But great place My wife and I would go again
Good day! Felt like I was with a friend in a trip, not just a guide.
Full day, safe trip ( having own car with a driver) . I wished I could see more, but it's a long way and hard traffic. Liked the elephants, sadly I have no picture with me riding them. The guide was great, the driver was good and silent, let me sleep on the road.
Great tour guide and safe driver with flexibility in the Pink City
We had a wonderful time on our trip. Albeit a few problems with the driver picking us up, we got to Jaipur safely and Hotel Peppermint offered a nice room. The food at the hotel was also very good, and the staff were always asking what more they could provide. We then met our tour guide and began the day around 2pm in the City Palace (you have the option to pay an extra 25000 Rupees to visit the inside) and the Hawa Mahal. Our guide was wonderful at explaining the history and going into great detail at each location. When we wanted to go shopping, he took us to the best places in town for our needs. The following morning we got up early for the elephant ride to the Amber Fort. Personally I will never ride an elephant again since ours got angry and the driver had to draw blood to calm him down, but the fort itself is beautiful. We finished off with a trip to the market and lunch. Great because we had flexibility over where to go and what to see.
Awesome tour for those with limited time
Having booked our 'Golden Triangle' tour online, we were a bit apprehensive. The booking process was seamless and followed up by email confirmations and communications. Mr. Omar and Mr. Raja were very professional and friendly. The driver Rohit was a bit reserved, nevertheless he did a good job of showing us around and making the most out of the time that we had. All in all, a very satisfying experience.

Learn more about this vacation rental at the manager's website:
Very nice and clean condo, the VIEW is the best part about it, reasonably priced. Could use a dresser in the 2nd bedroom. We were pleased to see that they had 4 beach chairs, umbrella and a pop up canopy to use at the beach, otherwise it would cost $35/day to rent. The pool was nice and not to crowded, considering how many condos are in the Tides complex. We would definitely recommend this condo to our friends and stay here again when we return.
Very clean, high level,fully equipment apparment , view,view, view..from bad room espesially.
I arrived yesterday only but iam planning to book it for next year vocation.and believe me I have experience in Europe ,Mexico Turkish 5 * hotels, to compare.
Best feedback from Tania, I finally found apartment for my family vocation that I really want to return again
My family and I stayed at the property from 9/21 to 9/27/13. This condo was a real gem and a fantastic value for the money. There were some very minor things that would have improved our experience, such as new shower heads for better water flow, a dresser in the master suite, and an alarm clock in the unit would have been nice. However, overall we had a terrific stay. What we liked most...THE VIEW! The view from the living room and balcony and the master bedroom were magical! The beach was great, very clean and it's all right there. The bed in the master was the most comfortable I've ever slept in. Loved the walk-in closets. The condo overall was really very nice, clean, very spacious and nicely decorated. The free wi-fi was a definite plus. The building security staff were all very friendly and welcoming. The management company was very responsive to all my phone calls and helpful and made the process easier than I expected, although there was a short delay in someone meeting us at the building, but it was fine and the woman who met us there was very charming. The building is right next door to the Westin, which is where I was going for a conference and is a 1 minute walk. The condo is within a very short drive to the Hollywood broadwalk and just a quick skip over to Miami. Hollywood is like Miami but without all the traffic, fuss and hassle and very family-friendly. The broadwalk was so much fun. We rented bikes, went to the beach there and went in many of the little shops, and enjoyed a free beach concert one evening. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and can't wait to come back. We would absolutely stay here in this condo and highly recommend it.
Everything was corresponding at the photos. Very nice place to stay with a beautiful view on the beach. When you are woken up with the rising of the sun and jump to the beach for a beautiful morning swim. It let you great souvenir. If you have a car, it's a perfect place to stay. Some minors issues with the cleaning. We are family of five with a baby and two older children and everyone took a great pleasure to stay there. We will certainly come again.
This is a very spacious, clean, and modern property! The views from the balcony and bedroom can't be beat! We liked the fact that we didn't have to fight for space on the beach. Everyone on staff was wonderful, especially the parking attendants! We will definitely come back to this property next time we visit Hollywood Beach! Thanks for a great stay!!
We stayed in the apartment during NOV 2010 with 3 people. The apartment is very large. The interiour is practical and fulfills all needs for holidays. The view is spectecular and as described. Some minor spots in the floor and on the sofa show that the place has seen several guests already. Upon on arrival the apartment was clean, only exception was the kitchen with some minor leftovers of former guests, but no big problem. Pool and fitness room are in good condition. The beach is perfect and right behind the building. Enough parking available, only question why you need to pay for valid parking as we parked the whole time the car by our own and used the back entrance. The service provided by the agency where we rented the apartment was very good. No problems even we arrived very late at night. In the surrounding of the building are some of shops like 7 eleven etc. however we missed some near by restaurants to go by foot.
In total we very much liked Florida and the apartment. We have no problem in recommending it for your vacation at all.

An estimated 100 million people - almost double the population of Britain - have already become international migrants, says a report published yesterday by the UN's Population Fund. Almost 2 per cent of the world's population lives outside its country of birth.
The movement of people across borders and from rural areas to the booming 'mega cities' of the Third World now strains both industrialised and developing countries. Some of the biggest Third World cities are set to double in size in a dozen years, the UN says.
'The only effective means to reduce migration pressures over the long term are to slow population growth; to stimulate economic growth and job creation at home, and promote the development of the individual and family as the basic economic and social unit,' it concludes.
World population now stands at 5.57 billion and is projected to rise to 6.25 billion by the year 2000 and 8.5 billion by 2050. The UN warns: 'World population may not stabilise until 2150, at a projected level of 11.6 billion.'
These figures obscure a much faster growth rate in some parts of the world. In Africa today's population of 700 million is expected to more than double to reach 1.6 billion by 2025.
'Forty years ago, developing countries accounted for 77 per cent of the world population growth; today the proportion approaches 95 per cent. This growing imbalance is among the major contributing factors to international migration,' the UN says.
Half the people who leave their homes today are women. 'The evidence strongly suggests that, in combination with poverty, high fertility itself is a spur for female migration. Studies in Asia and Latin America have found that women who migrate typically come from larger than average families, an imbalance that is even more pronounced among families that have no land rights.'

How to control family spending
The other component of a bottom-up budget is long-term savings. Your RRSP contribution should be a regular expense, not something you'll make if there's money left at the end of the month. However, you can delay saving for retirement if you have debt that you can eliminate in a short period of time, such as three to six months.
If debt elimination will take several years, Van Nest encourages us to include retirement savings in our budgets; otherwise, it may never get started. "It's a way to feel good not just about having debt come down every month but also about looking after long-term requirements."
Check out some of our best money saving tips for frugal couples and those who love to cook!

Hi Hank!
Ran is right!
I started my affair with the genus HOSTA in 1973---I had to have them
all--which at that time wasnt too hard to do. Then I put the brakes on when I
reached about 600.
NOW however there are so many great cultivars I am back in my first stage--I
want them ALL!

Thanks, everyone for your kindness regarding that seedling I posted.
One of the siblings bloomed today, and looked identical, except it
had more puckered/deformed standards, and was (of course) blooming
below the foliage. I expected that, though. :-)
Francelle, your seedling is beautiful! I like that one a lot, too.
Gives me a challenge to work toward!
YES, I have found hybridizing to be quite addicting! -- as I have
already made SDB crosses this spring, hoping to see some pods start

AVHRR NDVI and Departure from Average GeoTIFFSEntry ID: UMAC_NDVI_GEOTIFF
Abstract: This product is a GeoTIFF image illustrating the Normalized Difference
Vegetative Index (NDVI) across the conterminous United States, as well
as subsets for the states of North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana,
Wyoming, and Idaho. In order to provide a product that is easily
interpreted by our users, the Upper Midwest Aerospace Consortium
(UMAC) acquires a weekly NDVI product and a Departure from ... NDVI
average product from the EROS Data Center and converts these products
into a GeoTIFF image. This GeoTIFF image illustrates for the user the
relative greenness of an area and the comparison of a particular
week's index to the average of that week historically. The
values in the image are no longer linked to real data values, but are
rather simply color coded for illustrative purposes. The dataset
covers the year 2000 with some gaps.

EMU and Asymmetries and Adjustment Problems in the EMS
The paper empirically analyzes asymmetries in the EMS with special reference to their implication for the creation of a monetary union (EMU). Two types of asymmetries are analyzed: those in the form of "German dominance" are detected in the conduct of monetary policies in the EMS, in particular when the concept of "Granger causality" is applied in vector autoregressions using money-market interest rates through which most of the short-term policy impulses are transmitted; and second, asymmetries in the shocks to macroeconomic variables are discussed.

Erkki Ruoslahti, M.D., Ph.D.
Research Assistant Professor(s)
Erkki Ruoslahti's Research Focus
The Ruoslahti laboratory studies peptides that home to specific targets in the body, such as tumors, atherosclerotic plaques and injured tissues. These peptides, which usually bind to receptors in the vessels of the target tissue, can be used to selectively deliver diagnostic probes and drugs to the target. The latest development is the discovery of homing peptides with tumor-penetrating properties. The CendR tissue penetration pathway is a new endocytosis/trans-tissue transport pathway (Pang et al., Nat Comm. 2014). The current focus is on enhancing the effects of coupled and co-injected drugs with the tumor-homing peptides, particularly in mouse models of breast cancer and glioblastoma. This laboratory also studies the receptors for the peptides and the mechanism of their tumor penetration activity.
Erkki Ruoslahti's Research Report
The underlying themes of Dr. Ruoslahti's work are tumor vasculature and metastasis. Tumors, like other tissues, contain both blood vessels and lymphatic vessels. A tumor needs blood vessels to be able to grow, and destroying tumor blood vessels is the basis of a promising new cancer therapy. Lymphatic vessels are not needed for tumor growth, but like blood vessels, the lymphatics are an important conduit of distant metastasis.
Vascular Zip Codes
The Ruoslahti laboratory screens large collections ("libraries") of random peptides to identify those that bind to specific targets in the vasculature. The peptides in the library are displayed on the surface of phage (a virus that infects bacteria), and the screening is done in vivo. When the library is injected into the circulation of a mouse, phage particles that display peptides capable of binding to a selected target tissue, such as a tumor, accumulate at the target where they can be collected and their peptide identified. The method has revealed a wealth of specific features, or "vascular zip codes," in the vessels of individual tissue and tumors. We have identified peptides that specifically home to tumors because they recognize angiogenesis-associated or tumor-type specific markers in tumor blood vessels. We even have peptides that distinguish the vessels of pre-malignant lesions from those of fully malignant tumors. Homing peptides have also revealed a zip code system of molecular changes in tumor lymphatics.
We have used synthetic homing peptides identified by phage display to target drugs and biologicals into tumors. The targeting can increase the efficacy of a drug while reducing its side effects. Even a non-specifically toxic compound can be converted into a compound that affects only the targeted tissue. We also identify the target molecules (receptors) for the peptides. The receptors of our tumor-homing peptides often play a functionally important role in tumor vasculature, and because of this are candidates for drug development.
A major focus is to use homing peptides as targeting elements to deliver nanoparticles into tumors and other sites of disease. Nanoparticles are considered a promising new approach in medicine because they can be designed to perform more functions than a simple drug. The vasculature is an excellent target for nanoparticles because tumor vessels are readily available for circulating particles. In collaboration with several chemistry and bioengineering laboratories, we have constructed multifunctional nanoparticles for tumor targeting. These particles can be directed into tumors in a highly selective manner as demonstrated by histology, non-invasive imaging, and tumor treatment results. We have constructed nanoparticles with the ability to amplify their own homing to tumors, and are currently working on nanoparticles coated peptides that confer the particles tissue-penetrating properties. The goal is to incorporate multiple functions such as specific targeting, self-amplification of the targeting, exit from vessels into tissue, ability to send signals for imaging, and controlled drug delivery. It is also important that the particles resist uptake by the reticuloendothelial system, which otherwise keeps them from reaching their intended target.
Cell Attachment and Anoikis
Cancer is so lethal because, unlike normal cells, cancer cells can migrate to distant sites where they do not belong and multiply there. The metastatic growths that result are what often makes cancer incurable. Normal cells attach to an insoluble protein scaffold, extracellular matrix, the protein/carbohydrate meshwork that fills the spaces in between cells. If normal cells detach from the extracellular matrix, they promptly die by apoptosis which, when caused by lack of attachment, is called anoikis. One of the fundamental characteristics of cancer cells is that they can detach and stay alive to eventually metastasize.
In the 1980s this laboratory demonstrated that the cell-binding site of fibronectin and several other extracellular matrix proteins consists of a tripeptide, RGD, presented in a different context in each protein. We also isolated RGD-binding cell-surface receptors that subsequently became known as the integrin family of cell-adhesion receptors. The RGD paradigm became the basis of an intense worldwide drug development program seeking new treatments for arterial restenosis, thrombosis, angiogenesis, and cancer.
The current cell attachment work in this laboratory focuses on the signaling pathways that control anoikis, and through it tumor metastasis. The signaling proteins we work on include Bit1 a mitochondrial protein we consider a "guardian of anoikis," a protein we named "metadherin" because it promotes lung metastasis from breast cancers, and the receptor for one of our tumor-homing peptides that appears to promote tumor growth by causing metabolic changes in tumor cells.
Erkki Ruoslahti's Bio
Erkki Ruoslahti earned his M.D. and Ph.D. from the University of Helsinki in Finland in 1967. After postdoctoral training at the California Institute of Technology, he held various academic appointments with the University of Helsinki and the University of Turku in Finland and City of Hope National Medical Center in Duarte, California. He joined Sanford-Burnham in 1979 and served as its President from 1989-2002. He has been a Distinguished Professor at University of California Santa Barbara in Biological Sciences since 2005. His honors include elected membership to the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, Institute of Medicine, American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and the European Molecular Biology Organization. He is the recipient of the G.H.A. Clowes Award, Robert J. and Claire Pasarow Foundation Award, Jacobaeus International Prize, The Jubilee Award given by the British Biomedical Society. He was a Nobel Fellow at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm in 1995, and is an Honorary Doctor of Medicine from the University of Lund, as well as a Knight of the Order of the White Rose of Finland. Dr. Ruoslahti is the recipient of the 2005 Japan Prize in Cell Biology.

Against Feasibility Analysis

August 10, 2009
University of Chicago Law Review, Vol. 77, p. 657, 2010
Universty of Chicago Law & Economics, Olin Working Paper No. 480
University of Chicago, Public Law Working Paper No. 274
Feasibility analysis, a method of evaluating government regulations, has emerged as the major alternative to cost-benefit analysis. Although regulatory agencies have used feasibility analysis (in some contexts called "technology-based" analysis) longer than cost-benefit analysis, feasibility analysis has received far less attention in the scholarly literature. In recent years, however, critics of cost-benefit analysis have offered feasibility analysis as a superior alternative. We advance the debate by uncovering the analytic structure of feasibility analysis and its normative premises, and then criticizing them. Our account builds on two examples of feasibility analysis, one conducted by OSHA and the other by EPA. We find that feasibility analysis leads to both under- and overregulation, and we conclude that it lacks a normative justification and is unsuitable for government regulation.
