Let me share a story about UPS, although in the end, this story has nothing to do with UPS.
For about the past 10 years, UPS has maintained a policy of terminating any employees who are unable to return to work after 12 months of leave. This policy has disproportionately impacted employees whose medical conditions prevent them from returning to work during this otherwise eminently reasonable time period. UPS has defended the policy, arguing that the 12-month requirement is an "attendance policy" that is permissible under the ADA, since attendance is an essential job function for any employee.
As it has been known to do over the past few years, the EEOC filed suit against UPS and its 12-month automatic termination policy. Interestingly, the EEOC does not frame its case as one of attendance, so as to circumvent UPS' argument above. Rather, the agency claims that the automatic termination policy amounts to a "100 percent healed" policy. Thus, it is an impermissible qualification standard because it screens out individuals with disabilities in violation of the ADA.
Last week, a federal trial court refused to dismiss EEOC's ADA claims against UPS, effectively allowing the EEOC to advance its case through the discovery phase.
The one thing that intrigues me about this case has nothing to do with the court's decision, which was a rather dry, four-page analysis (pdf). Rather, the comments of the EEOC's Regional Attorney John Hendrickson, who is heading up the case for the agency, caught my attention. Employers, take heed of Hendrickson's comments:
The key to avoiding trouble under the Americans with Disabilities Act, is to be constantly asking the question 'Can we get this employee back on the job with a reasonable accommodation?' and certainly not to be asking only 'Has this employee been on leave long enough for us to get rid of him?'
Before we dismiss Hendrickson's comments as a bunch of poppycock, can I offer what might be considered an uncomfortable suggestion: rather than pooh-pooh them, why not take Hendrickson's comments to heart and implement them in your own workplace?
For those of you striving to be an employer of choice, it seems obvious that your focus should be on the former question (How can we figure out how to help this employee return to work?) than the latter (Can we get rid of him now?). Ordering the questions in this fashion, however, doesn't always come easy. Instead, the employer often simply focuses on whether we have provided enough leave and, after one or two or three extensions of leave, whether it's acceptable to move forward with the employee's termination.
This approach is understandable -- we have businesses to run, and we need to rely on our employees to make them run. But in doing so, we occasionally lose sight of our obligations under the ADA to engage our employee in the interactive process to determine whether and how we can provide assistance to help them return to work. And where the employee's continued absence truly is a hardship on our workplace and its operations, we must do a better job articulating why and how the absence negatively impacts our business.
Like you, I long for the day when the EEOC actually provides us guidance on leave as a reasonable accommdation. Employers deserve it. And the EEOC has been promising this guidance since at least 2010 when it held hearings on the topic. But in the meantime, if our workplaces are to be the well-oiled machines we strive for, compliance in the reasonable accommodation process is critical to our future success. For those of us not up to par, let's get our heads in the game.

The Molecular Virology (MV) Research Program is an interdisciplinary basic Research Program consisting of 24 members in 17 departments with common interests in the molecular biology and immunology of viruses relevant to cancer and related topics. The goals of this Program are to facilitate research into the basic mechanisms of viral tumorigenesis and anti-viral immunity and to conduct investigations that may lead to novel approaches to prevent or treat tumors associated with viruses. Because viruses play a causal role in a substantial fraction of human tumors, studies carried out in this Program may eventually have an important impact on cancer prevention and treatment by revealing the mechanisms responsible for tumor virus replication and tumorigenesis, thus identifying novel approaches for translational efforts. In addition, the molecular mechanisms responsible for viral and non-viral tumors share many features, such as the inactivation of p53 and Rb, so these studies will also provide important insight into the development and treatment of cancers that are not associated with viruses. Under the leadership of Daniel DiMaio, MD, PhD, a tumor virologist, and Wendell Yarbrough, MD, MMHC, a head and neck surgeon, the MV Program accomplishes these goals primarily by encouraging and stimulating collaborative research though sponsoring the monthly MV Program Meetings, monthly faculty virology lunches, and two Memorial Lectureships;and by providing access to YCC Shared Resources and to competitions for YCC Pilot grants. Notably, since the last submission of this grant, MV Program members have received $567,500 in YCC pilot funds and parlayed that into ~$15M in extramural funding. The faculty of this program is distinguished, and in aggregate, the ten full professors in the MV Research Program have received seven NIH MERIT Awards. Several new members have been added to the MV Program, bringing new strength in HIV research, structural biology, translational research, and viral epidemiology. A great strength of the MV Program is the existence of strong research efforts in all of the viruses or virus groups associated with human cancer, as well as HIV, which is an important cofactor in many human cancers because of immunosuppression. In addition, the MV Program faculty comprise the great majority of lecturers in the graduate level course, Molecular Biology of Animal Viruses. Since the last submission of the CCSG, members of this Program published 303 (2006-11) cancer related papers, of which 21'(7%) were intra-programmatic and 73 (24%) inter-programmatic. The total cancer research funding of the MV Program is $7.9M annual direct costs ($12.6M total costs), of which $7.6M direct costs is peer-reviewed and $2.4M is NCI-funded.
Virus infection is directly responsible for approximately 15% of cancer deaths worldwide, including some common cancers such as cervical and liver cancer. Better understanding of mechanisms of tumor virus entry, replication, and transformation will provide new approaches to prevent and treat these cancers.

10×10 London is Article 25's main fundraising event. It divides an area of the city into a 10×10 grid. The 100 resulting squares are allocated to prominent architects, designers and artists, who create 100 unique artworks, together forming a snapshot of London. These are then auctioned, raising money for Article 25.
10×10 2015 venue announced
Article 25 is delighted to announce that 10×10 London will return in 2015.
This year's auction is taking place on the 1st December and will be hosted at the RIBA.
The theme for this year's event is the Thames, with artists exploring the role the river plays in shaping our city. The 10×10: Drawing the River grid will follow the curvature of the river and take in the incredible variety of architectural landmarks built along its banks. From the London Wetlands to Limehouse basin, centuries of London's history can be traced along the river.
We look forward to announcing our full contributing artist list in due course.
Successful 10×10 2014
In 2014 10×10 London, held in The Shard, raised £120,000 for Article 25. Contributors included Antony Gormley, Zandra Rhodes, Richard Wilson, Celia Birtwell, Conrad Shawcross and Norman Foster. The event was widely covered by the media, including by Londonist, AJ, and BD.
Alastair Baird, Regional Managing Director of Barratt London, who has sponsored 10×10 for three consecutive years says:
"10×10 'Drawing the City London' is a fantastic celebration of the vibrancy of London & its architecture; but most importantly, the event raises vital funds for a charity that is focused on making the world a better place to live. As a London-focused business, we are cognisant of the fact we are fortunate to live in a city where clean water and education are taken for granted, and its been inspiring for all of the employees at Barratt London to be reminded of how provision of these basic services utterly changes lives."
Contact email@example.com to discuss sponsorship and other ways to get involved in 10×10 2015. Visit 10x10London.com to see previous years' works and find out more about the event.

I went to my second Miraflores gourmet lunch last month and it was as spectacular as last year's experience. The Tuscan-style winery is on a hill overlooking the vineyards with an expansive paved-stone patio. On Saturdays and Sunday during the summer and autumn, they bring top chefs from the Bay Area, Carmel and Sacramento in for a weekend to create...
We have visited Miraflores on several occasions and have never been disappointed with wine tasting. We have not yet timed our visits with the wine and food pairings offered but have been told by others they are great !
Beware, this winery is not welcoming of children. We bought wine, and had a bottle opened for a picnic on the grounds, and were made to feel our children were not welcome. Our children are very well behaved, and were sitting and eating nicely. Not sure what the reasoning behind this is. We have found many other wineries in this...
We have wine club members for about 2+ years and always have a wonderful experience at Miraflores. A great place to visit if your a local or just visiting Northern california
Chefs Gabriel Glaser & Kristel Flores created a 4 course meal that showcased unusual combinations that melded together perfectly! Paired with the delicious premium wine from Miraflores and the stunning property landscape. Amazing lunch experience, highly recommend!
Stopped by for some tasting and ended up using the tables out back and enjouying a bottle of their Melbec with our lunch. The tasting was a fun experience with Julie. She would hide the name of the wine and would make us guess what it was. We loved the Melbec but honestly, we didn't taste any bad wines. They...
Very busy the day we visited but the staff was on top of everything. Great wines to taste in a lovely setting. Highly recommend stopping here because the wines were so good. Tasting fee is waived if you purchase a bottle of wine and you will purchase something because it is all good and some wines are fantastic.
The wines here are wonderful and there is a nice variety of white, red and sweet. Something for everyone! What really makes this place great, however, is the setting, a beautiful stone building perched on a hilltop overlooking the surrounding vineyards and mountains. They do "pairings" lunches in the Summer and Fall and we frequently have lunch here on the...
I visited Mira Flores on the suggestion from someone at Holly's Hill Vineyard. She knew I enjoyed Port wines and boy did she steer my in the right direction.
Our server was quite knowledgeable and friendly. She let us wander at our own pace, but was quick to get our opinions and taste some more.
I ended up purchasing a...
We were a group of 4 visiting the winery for the second time. We had planned to purchase several bottles. There was a group of about 8 people being served so we decided to wait outside and enjoy the view (we were not welcomed when we came into the room) We returned after a few minutes and were still ignored....

There was no catering for lunch and dinner at the club on Mondays and Tuesdays, so we found a French providore in town, and assembled a fine array of tucker. Back to the club, I arranged a few Adirondack chairs on the lawn overlooking the harbour, and borrowed a ...

We had actually visited Newport previously on the trip on the way from

built by the super rich of the 20th century and are modelled on
English mansions ...

Written statement to Parliament
Terrorism: Theresa May's statement on change to the UK threat level
This speech was published under the 2010 to 2015 Conservative and Liberal Democrat coalition government
This written ministerial statement was laid in the House of Commons on 12 July 2011 by Theresa May, and in the House of Lords by Baroness Browning…
This written ministerial statement was laid in the House of Commons on 12 July 2011 by Theresa May, and in the House of Lords by Baroness Browning.
Yesterday, 11 July, the Joint Terrorism Analysis Centre (JTAC) changed the UK threat level from
international terrorism from severe to substantial. This means that a terrorist attack is a strong possibility.
The change in the threat level to substantial does not mean the overall threat has gone away - there remains a real and serious threat against the United Kingdom and I would ask the public remain vigilant.
The decision to change the threat level is taken by JTAC (joint terrorism analysis centre) independently of ministers and is based on the very latest intelligence, considering factors such as capability, intent and timescale. Substantial continues to indicate a high level of threat; and that an attack might well occur without further warning. The threat level is kept under constant review.

Pete the Cat Saves Christmas by Eric Litwin
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Pete the cat books are great for teaching points and student engagement.This is a christmas story.
Santa becomes ill the night before Christmas, so Pete the Cat must overcome challenges to help save Christmas.
My first Pete the Cat book. I will definitely be back for more of this groovy little cat!!
What a fun new addition to your holiday book list. The rhythm of the book goes along with the Christmas tune "Feliz Navidad" and is a reimagining of the "Night Before Christmas"
Santa is ill and needs Pete the Cat to fill in for him on his Christmas Eve rounds to make sure all the good little boys and girls receive their Christmas gifts. Pete is up for giving his all because at Christmas we give, so Pete gives it his all.
If you are familiar with the Pete the Cat books be sure to find the little yellow bird that appears throughout the story.
This story of Santa has a twist when Santa becomes ill, and Pete the Cat steps in! This book has lots of repetition and tell the story of Pete the Cat going to get presents to deliver for Santa. This book has a song that goes with it, which would be great to play as you read along. The pictures are very detailed and has a water painting texture to the pages.

It's been a while since I watched rasslin, but that looks like a textbook Stinger Splash by a counter-protestor to break through the tape and snatch down a Confederate battle flag being waved by members of South Carolina Secessionist Party.

Tribeca: Rural-Noir Beneath the Harvest Sky Wears Us Down, But Sean Gullette's Traitors Is Alive With Scuzzy Energy
Beneath the Harvest Sky
That old familiar damp-backwoods-gray-skies indie ominousness is peddled to little effect by Beneath the Harvest Sky, a film whose title is more evocative than either its portentous mood or its coming-of-age drama. Lurking around the edges of Aron Gaudet and Gita Pullapilly's picture is a subtly unsettling, nuanced performance by The Wire and Game of Thrones great Aidan Gillen as a ne'er-do-well dad named Clayton who's illegally transporting prescription pills across the Maine-Canada border.
Unfortunately, Gillen's subplot is largely just a device designed to get the plot to a third-act tragedy involving Clayton's roughneck son Casper (Emory Cohen) and Casper's straight-and-narrow friend Dominic (Callan McAuliffe). Caspar is motivated to stay put – especially once his girlfriend says she's pregnant – while Dominic dreams of ditching town for Boston. Those conflicting future plans are merely one of the story's many narrative focal points, as Beneath the Harvest Sky also involves other cousins, girlfriends and cops whose perfunctory presence overstuffs a film that ultimately comes across like the formulaic stepson of Frozen River, Winter's Bone, and countless other rundown-rural-community character studies.
Also at Tribeca, Sean Gullette's Traitors operates according to a standard drug-smuggling-drama template, though it colors its familiar elements with just enough distinctive personality to allow it to stand on its own. Pi actor-turned-director Gullette's feature debut has a fleet pace and skuzzy-roughneck energy that matches the punk rock music of Traitors, an all-girl band in Tangiers whose frontwoman, Malika (Chaimae Ben Acha), agrees to drive a car full of hash through security checkpoints for money that will allow her to record her band's demo.
While an overly optimistic ending somewhat sabotages the film's air of realism, Gullette shrewdly colors his tale with stinging commentary about Middle East sexism while also eliciting a commanding lead performance from Chaimae Ben Acha. Her head down and her eyes wide, Acha exudes both an anxious fear and fierce sense of purpose in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. Even when her story devolves into hopeful fantasy, she remains a potent figure of youthful anti-tyrannical rebellion.

Still no category order yet save the final four (Director, Actor, Actress, Pic)? Dying to know what KB will present. She's not just the lead in a $385 million boxoffice hit, she's led the fight against stalkerazzi taking pictures of children of celebrity marrieds.

I think it's safe to say Julie Delpy will not be asked to present. This is what she said:
On award shows being meaningless: "We have the Golden Globes. If you could see it, you wouldn't believe that there's anything good about it. The same goes for the Oscars. It's 90 per cent white men over 70 who need money because they haven't done anything in a long time. You just need to give them two or three presents and they're in your pocket. It doesn't mean anything to me, so I don't really care if there are women in the selection process."
On the Weinstein's crushing real independent cinema: "I think they love cinema, but they also like to take a movie and give it an added value, then kill everything left behind. This has a lot to do with the Oscars. In the 90s, there were real independent movies, but they have slowly been crushed by the majors. The minute they take over something, they crush it."
On starring in Hollywood blockbusters: "I've made some big movies before already. C*** stuff like The Three Musketeers. Every time I've become a part of the Hollywood mainstream, it's been c***! Let's be honest: 90 per cent of movies made in Hollywood are c***."March 1, 2014 at 8:38 pm #144046

Where to start, where to start.
Well, first off Ellen was okay. I am personally not a fan of her style of hosting or of herself in general, but I felt she did alright. There were some very memorable moments during this telecast, namely the group selfie that she had with all those actors which actually is real if you want to go onto the official Oscar Facebook group (It's now my desktop on my laptop). My other favourite moment was Ellen ordering only like three large pizzas to the several hundreds who were at that theatre. But overall, it was kind of a step down from last year's host Seth MacFarlane (am I seriously the only one who thought he did a good job?).
As for the winners, a lot of them were by the book with no big surprises. Gravity took home a massive haul of seven wins out of ten, which is kind of a shame for me since I am in the vast minority who thought Gravity was, and I quote, "the most overrated film of the year", but I digress. 12 Years a Slave won 3 awards including Best Picture of the Year. And American Hustle was the big fat loser, the big fat goose egg of the ceremony losing all ten nominations it was up for, ironically I felt this was the best film of the year.
The ceremony had some brisk moments, but also some sluggish moments. Liked all the performances at the telecast, especially Bette Midler doing awesome in "Wing Beneath My Wings" and P!nk's stunning rendition of "Over the Rainbow". All of the original song contenders were pretty excellent too, and Idina Menzel just knocked it out of the park for me. Was it just me, or did they seem to play Pharrell's "Happy" longer than all the other contenders?
While not as memorable as last year's telecast, it was decidedly safe. The jokes were good, the opening monologue had some nice stuff in it. A lot of jokes missed their mark. Some memorable performances by the singers. I have mixed feelings about the telecast this year, but overall I felt it was good, but maybe I'm just bitter that a movie that I wasn't fond of (fucking Gravity) was so adored when it so obviously shouldn't have been. But to each his own.
RATING: 7/10March 1, 2014 at 10:34 pm #144050
1. CATE BLANCHETT wins Best Actress! It was expected all along, but I truly feel this is one of the most deserved wins in this category in years. She also gave the best speech of the night- it was everything you could expect and more- humble, funny, endearing, courageous and beautiful. She looked stunning, she got her ovation and she has her Oscar.
2. LUPITA NYONG'O wins Best Supporting Actress! It was a tight battle between her and Jennifer Lawrence, and I am glad she won – well deserved, and beautiful speech.
3. 12 Years a Slave wins Best Picture- fantasic- and Brad Pitt is now an official Oscar winner.
4. Ellen DeGeneres- hats off to you! You were awesome- everything a host should be, and true stand up comedy at the beginning. I am glad she was able to have fun and not offend and still be funny.
1. Helium, as I predicted, takes Best Live Action Short. Emotionally charged, this was a great win.
2. Spike Jonze wins Best Original Screenplay for Her– I am SO pissed I had this all along and decided to switch last-minute because everyone said American Hustle "has to win something"; well this proved wrong and I will never listen to dumb gossip again. I am glad I stuck with Jonze in the OscarWorld Oscar Contest – helped keep my score high. Jonze deserved this for the most original story of the year.
3. Gravity wins 7 Oscars- all deserved to me, and glad I stuck with it in Film Editing- I didn't buy into the Captain Phillips buzz here. Alfonso Cuaron deserved this for Directing- a genius.
4. Jared Leto and Matthew McConaughey- whether or not you agreed- or were bored with the obvious choice- both men deliver astonishing performances in the film, and both gave admirable speeches as well.
5. 20 Feet from Stardom winning Documentary and the singing speech- too good!
1. The Great Gatsby (which I did predict in Production Design) wins both it's Oscars- ugh. Such safe and name checking choices.
2. "Let It Go" wins over "Happy" and "Long Walk to Freedom"- blah! Just not in the same league.
While (mostly) predictable with the winners, I enjoyed this telecast and the winners much more than last year! All four acting winners deserved their prizes and the Best Picture and Directing honors are very worthy. Can't complain too much about the winners (Get a Horse losing was shocking). Also American Hustle goes 0-10- and as much as some may be disgruntled, I have to admit this was not a film that deserved any awards. Hyped, fun and mostly marketing- the academy decided it didn't need anything, and proves just because your movie gets a lot of nominations for your actors does not mean it's going to win.
A great year- Congrats to all the winners!MacbethParticipantJoinedOct 7th, 2011Total Topics223Posts2815March 2, 2014 at 12:44 am #144051
I might as well steal this space as well
I think if 12 Years a Slave wins anything except Best Picture, this space will be just tearsMarch 2, 2014 at 12:50 am #144052
I am predicting Gravity to win Best Picture, but I truly want 12 Years a Slave to prevail. I feel strongly about both films- and even had a much more entertaining experience screening Gravity. But my heart wants Slave. This is a special year in that both top contending films for the final prize (assuming AH is out) are movies I rally behind.
Last year provided a lot of fun suspense for me, but I pretty much knew Argo was good to go. This year, we sort of have a weird up climb of somewhat predictable categories (some not) and then no one really knows what will win Best Picture. Scottfurgesen makes a good point that this could be a year where Best Picture will win nothing else at all. And just because we see a movie doing well earlier in the night, still doesn't really make much difference in terms of the final outcome.
It's 4AM and I am not going to sleep lol!babypookParticipantJoinedNov 4th, 2010Total Topics107Posts14297March 2, 2014 at 1:07 am #144053
Hey Jas, if 12 Years wins ONLY Best Picture and nothing else, an idea which strikes me as wishful yearning, I will eat my hat, in three gulps. What I'm interested in seeing, is what happens with American Hustle. (I think it's a given that Nebraska will be shut out…mwahahaha!) Of all the early and present likelies, AH has the best chance of being blanked.
I'd love to see some surprises, especially in the Best Actor and Director categories. My personal favorite friom the nominated is Her. Joaquin is so good, it hurts. He could replace anyone on the ballot imo. And Scarjo, should be dating the Hal9000. She might have been good for him.
Btw, why are you guys reserving a spot? Are you going to come back to this page and only post your thoughts/reactions underneath, creating an ongoing experience?
Lol. I think I'll just react spontaneously, anywhere it strikes me.March 2, 2014 at 1:25 am #144054
@Pook: I loved Her too; rooting for it to take Screenplay and Production Design, but predicting elsewhere crazily.
American Hustle (which I now have in Screenplay) is the darkhorse that could take more then we think. I don't think it wins Best Picture, but I do think it has a big shot for Jennifer Lawrence. I have Lupita, but this is shaky. Another reason why I don't think 12 Years wins top dice (and I mentioned this in the main predix area) is because I don't think it's solid in any categories, where as Gravity is very solid in numerous spots- including Best Director. That to me, says something.
I will be watching the Oscars with my parents for the first time in 10 years- so won't be blogging until after the ceremony. And recently that's what I do- watch and then react. This is the one time I don't want to do play on play commentary until I have fully immersed myself in the experience. It could change though lol.babypookParticipantJoinedNov 4th, 2010Total Topics107Posts14297March 2, 2014 at 1:35 am #144055

"I do think it has a big shot for Jennifer Lawrence"
LOLOL! I've been predicting her all along. I meant. "besides" Lawrence. I think it has a shot at both screenplay and costume design, and maybe even Best Picture, but I'm betting, no to all.
Your take on Gravity is……interesting…(kidding, kidding). Boy will I be happy should there be an "upset" in the Director category.March 2, 2014 at 1:41 am #144056
Pook- I have a question for you regarding Lawrence. Maybe you can clear this up; I find her performance very uneven. I liked her in the quieter moments (her outside lunch at the end)- but the scenes where she's screaming about the microwave, or laughing at dinner- I found very over the top and not realistic.
Was she SUPPOSED to play it like that? Or is she actually conveying it as a believable adult? Because it came off like a bad SNL skit to me but perhaps Rosalyn was just 'hustling' – and her true self is revealed in the scenes I liked.

The principal goal of the Pilot/Exploratory Studies Core (PESC) is to foster high-quality, innovative, investigator-initiated research "Translational Research on Cardiac and Skeletal Muscle Dysfunction in Aging and Disease". Such studies may be designed to prevent and/or treat morbidity and mortality associated with cardiac and skeletal muscle weakness and its sequelae. This will be achieved by funding pilot and exploratory studies that have the highest potential In terms of generating data, resulting in influential publications, and culminating in extramural funding. Such studies are thus deemed likely to advance the careers of promising scientists entering this field. Activities of the PESC will contribute to the overall goals of the Arkansas Older Americans Independence Center (OAiC) by strengthening research programs that focus on aging cardiac and skeletal muscle weakness and nutrition as one of the key interventions. By offering pilot grant support and strong mentoring opportunities, the PESC will provide a valuable mechanism for junior investigators to overcome the initial hurdles to securing research funds and to help propel their careers in research intended to improve outcomes for older adults. It will also help us to attract senior investigators from other disciplines to the intersection of research on striated muscle (both cardiac and skeletal) and nutrient supplementation. We are fortunate to have received ten excellent proposals, both from senior, internationally recognized scientists, who are poised to enter this area of investigation, and from exceptional young investigators starting on their career goals. Martin Hauer-Jensen, MD, PhD, an outstanding clinical researcher at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS), exemplifies the first category;he has proposed to study the physiological basis for restoration of skeletal muscle mass and strength following arginine supplementation in human subjects. Two junior-faculty researchers were also selected: Anna Csiszar, MD, PhD, of the University of Oklahoma, will investigate the effects of arginine supplementation on cardiac and skeletal muscle function in rodents, and Sharda Singh, PhD (UAMS), proposes to study the metabolic changes underlying sarcopenia and ectopic fat accumulation in skeletal and cardiac muscle of aging mice. These three proposals were selected by the Internal Review and Executive Committee members from UAMS and OUHSC. This proposal review committee was guided by the same selection criteria presented in this proposal: high quality of proposed science, translational potential, congruence with the goals of the Arkansas OAIC, likelihood that PESC support will lead to extramural funding, and full utilization of cores RC1, RC2 and RC3.
The PESC will contribute to the overall goals of the Arkansas OAIC, by strengthening programs that focus on translational research in geriatrics and muscle maintenance or repair. By offering pilot grant support and strong mentoring opportunities, the PESC will provide a valuable mechanism for junior investigators to overcome the initial hurdles to securing research funds and help propel their careers in translational research on cardiac and skeletal muscle dysfunction In aging and disease. It will also help us attract senior Investigators and further accelerate the pace of research in these areas.

Like so many musicians and artists who die so young (she was just 22 when her plane crashed), we can only imagine what Aaliyah's career would look like now. Considering how self-possessed and strong she already was at such a young age, I can only guess that she'd have gone on to do even bigger and better things for women in the industry.

Young adult literature features a number of depictions of mentally ill characters, from authors who both bother to do their homework and take the time to present their work well and authors who don't seem to feel that research and sensitivity are necessary.

The Effect of Attendance on Grade for First Year Economics Students in University College Cork
This paper examines the relationship between attendance and grade, controlling for other factors, in first year economics courses in University College Cork. Determinants of both class attendance and grade are specified and estimated. We find that attendance is low, at least by comparison with US evidence. Hours worked and travel time are among the factors affecting class attendance. Class attendance, and especially tutorial attendance has a positive and diminishing marginal effect on grade, while hours worked in a part-time job have a significant negative effect on grade.

It is time for the English to conquer the world again, they say, time for the young golfers of Albion to stand up and redress an Open void which now stands at 18 years. But where to go for the inspiration?
To Sir Nick Faldo perhaps, the last countryman to lift the Claret Jug? Justin Rose and Ian Poulter certainly see the value of his experience, regularly dining with the six-times major winner to pick up tasty titbits. However, our Nick never has been to everyone's taste.
Well, how about looking further afield, out of the country club gates and on to the pitches of England's last great sporting glory? How about to Jonny Wilkinson and that boot which conquered the world? How about applying his disciplined regime to a pursuit which requires the mental side to back up the physical side more than any other? Luke Donald is doing just that and here this week he and the coach who gave Wilko his radar, Dave Alred, have been hard at it on the practice green. The similarities are obvious. Repeated kicks at the uprights; repeated strokes at the hole. The connection was waiting to happen.
"My brother-in-law lives in Bristol and is a big rugby fan and saw Dave at the gym a few times," says Donald, explaining how the partnership was first forged. "We thought we would give it a try from a different angle, so in January we started working together. He's not a traditional sports psychologist; he's more of a performance guy."
Alred first became involved in golf as part of what has become labelled "The Melissa Reid Experiment". Sir Clive Woodward formed a team around the English starlet to give a non-Olympian the Olympic back-up. The experiment was not a success and Reid now plots a more traditional path to the top. The failing with that project, however, has been accepted to have been more to do with the size of the entourage than the identities. Thus Alred has been given the opportunity to prove that his philosophy can cross the sporting spectrum.
"It's nothing to do with goal- kicking, really," explains Donald. "We try to look at ways of making my practice more efficient and at ways of practising more under pressure, rather than going through the routine of just hitting balls and not thinking about it. We are trying to make it a bit more front-footed. Dave doesn't want me out there for hours and hours, but he wants to look at every part of my game and do as much as I can to maximise my game. It is hard to quantify but if you look at my results it seems to be working."
Indeed it does. In the six months they have been together, Donald has moved up from outside the world's top 30 to recrack the top 10. In May, he lifted his first trophy in two years, his success in Madrid capping a three-week stretch in Europe which also saw him finish second at Wentworth and third in Wales. After 18 months or so, during which a wrist injury led to a frustrating time of inactivity and then mediocrity, Donald has begun to look like Donald again. There has always been a touch of the Jonny about Luke – the modest approach to both fame and expectation. Certainly, rugby's comeback man would be impressed with the Donald resurgence.
"I haven't met Jonny but I admire his work ethic," says the 32-year-old. "I don't watch a lot of rugby, living in the US, but I went to a rugby school in High Wycombe. I played until I was 14 but I kept getting injured so I gave it up. I was an inside centre. Kept getting beaten up. It's a tough game."
As is golf, particularly when the cold bites, the rain hurts and the wind destroys as it did here yesterday. These were ominous portents for Donald as he and the Open have endured something of an unsettling history. He missed his first five cuts in the oldest major and the next three only brought placings among the dead men. But then came Turnberry and so came a ray of direction at the course with the lighthouse.
"I did miss a lot of Open cuts but, after struggling for a number of years, I finished fifth last year, which was an important step for me," he says. "I am moving in the right direction. I played some links golf in preparation last year so, hopefully, doing the same again this year will help."
Donald took the old Tiger Woods route of playing around the links of Ireland. Together with a group of friends, which included Christian, his brother and former caddie, Donald went on a tour that featured Ballybunion. "The weather was a bit iffy but that might be useful this week," he says. "My form is pretty good and I have had some success around here. Sometimes bombing it can help at the Old Course, but it's not a super-long golf course and there are enough holes here where I will be hitting short irons in where I feel I can make plenty of birdies."
His lack of length is one of the reasons why Donald has managed to enjoy such a quiet build-up here this week. It is incredible to think that an Englishman ranked No 7 in the world can escape the focus, but then these are incredible times for English golf. Four players in the top 10 and a player called Justin Rose just outside it who has been chosen to partner Woods today.
"Justin deserves all the attention he has been getting here," says Donald. "Out of the English guys he's the one most in form. He's won two of his last three events in the US and should have won all three. He's playing great. But I'm sure the attention will come my way if I start well." As Wilko would confirm, the spotlight is an unavoidable evil.
The guru: Alred's CV
Dave Alred, one of the most successful kicking coaches in modern sport, has lead the way in ground-breaking research on skills acquisition.
Cutting his teeth as a junior assistant coach with the England rugby union side from 1995, he first made a name for himself during the victorious Lions tour of South Africa in 1997. The PhD. graduate helped with the kicking styles and mental stamina of Matt Dawson, Charlie Hodgson and Jonny Wilkinson, pushing all three into the top 10 points-scorers for England.
After mastering kicking in one sport, he moved on to football, working with Premier League clubs Newcastle, Middlesbrough and Sunderland, and advising the England goalkeeper David James. This, along with his involvement in other sports, brought him an MBE in 2004. It is hardly surprising that he is now expected to revolutionise Luke Donald's approach to golf with his detailed focus on "mental preparation".

F-Secure highlight's a new social engineering scheme that leads to a malicious website and agents that can compromise Android security.
F-Secure: Unlock Your Phone's Hidden Features!… Not.
QUOTE: Yesterday, we stumbled across this ad from an Android-related site. Clicking this led to a malicious menu entitled "Android Market" The text above mentions that mobile phone manufacturers are known to hide phone functionalities in order to earn money. The idea is that the manufacturers would then earn money through an OS update that unlocks the hidden features. This site claims to check your phone for such hidden features and unlock them. We detect this malware as Trojan:Android/FakeNotify.A (the APK), and Trojan:Java/FakeNotify.C (the JAR).

Secunia Research has discovered a vulnerability in Mozilla Suite, Firefox and
Netscape, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site
scripting attacks.
The problem is that the "frames", "parent", "self" and "top" objects are not
properly protected from being modified by another site via JavaScript. This can
be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser
session in context of an arbitrary site, which calls a method in one of the
modified objects.
The vulnerability has been confirmed in Mozilla Suite 1.7.8, Firefox 1.0.4 and
Netscape 8.0.1. Other versions may also be affected.
-- PoC (Proof of Concept) --
1. Go to SA15549.zip/poc.html and click link.
2. poc_b.html loads amazon.com in an invisible iframe and modifies "top.focus()"
which runs on load.
NOTE: Exploitation is site specific (choose a suitable object to manipulate).
3. An alert box shows location and cookie of Amazon. The address bar is also
Discovered by: Andreas Sandblad, Secunia Research

testcase steals amazon cookies
You don't need to overwrite victim.top.focus, you can simply replace
window.focus on the attacking page and the child frame will call it.
The address bar isn't exactly spoofed, the frame is calling the attack function
which does a document.write(). The URL bar is correctly updated to show the
document that is responsible for the writing--in this case the frame, which is
why it also has access to the frame's cookies. The problem is why we think
amazon is the origin for that focus call, and if we do why we let it call a
property written by someone else.
Mozilla 1.0 (Netscape 7.02) is not vulnerable, but Mozilla 1.4 (Netscape 7.1)
is. Probably too big a window to provide much clue about where this regressed.
About a year ago we fixed bug 86028 for 1.7 which affects access to these events
I don't think that's related, wrong timeframe and the frame isn't trying to
change the event handler, it's just being called. document.write() appears to be
the culprit, setting the wrong owner for the wyciwyg document. Inside the
focus() routine the environment appears to be the outerframe as I'd expect.
270 pref("capability.policy.default.Window.focus.get", "allAccess");
in all.js part of the problem? That's needed so sites can call focus() on a
window they opened which may be in a different domain (to raise it, eg).
All that said, if we really want to track down the regression we might be able
to -- I have 370-some nightlies from the 13-month period between 1.0 and 1.4,
which should give decent coverage. Unfortunately, I can't really test till end
of June; fortunately if someone does they are also at http://archive.mozilla.org
(and doing a binary search should involve downloading only about 10 builds).
No capabilities changes will help here at all. A evil page can simply set its
own focus method and load a victim page in a frame, once the frame calls
top.focus() we're in the same situation.
Seems like IE does a security check when *accessing* window.focus to see if the
caller is from the same origin as the origin of the *value* of the property
(window.focus). Fun...
Created attachment 186664 [details] [diff] [review]
Use the actual calling principal when replacing a document's principal in document.open().
This was way easier than I first thought, at least to plug the hole. With this
change we still work differently than IE and Opera does, but there's no longer
a security problem. IE and Opera throw security exceptions when using this
testcase, we don't. We simply do what we intended to do in this case all along,
but do it correctly. The problem was that when calling document.open() (or
.write()) on a document that's already loaded, we give the new document the
principals of the caller, but we got the caller wrong, we used the document in
the calling context, when we should use the actual principal of the caller.
That way no data theft like this one is possible any more.
For the record, I filed bug 298064 on a related problem.

It is in an internal only set of tests that were to be the basis for an internal security regression test suite. The future of that set of tests and test suite is uncertain.
I really think we should put all tests into the public test frameworks, especially when the bug is opened up. This test should probably be added to mochitest?
For what it's worth, the test doesn't really test this bug on trunk anymore, because window.focus on a wrapper is the native focus function, as far as I can tell.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|2 nights
One level easy access, large outdoor living area with big covered all weather deck.
Hang out in the yard with the Tui's and the Wood Pigeons. It's a big yard that catches the sun all day, just follow it around or take cover under one of the many trees. Nice gardens with interesting features that attract the birds. Hills form a backdrop.
Take a short walk across to the big bay and wander around the vast sand hills to the river mouth. If it's fishing you are into the river is the place for you- its hard not to catch a fish. Whitebait galore in season. We have a fish cleaning area and outdoor shower.
Sunset beach is a leisurely 20 minute walk or 1 minute drive. Expansive beach with patrolled lifeguards in season. Surfing is not crowded and hassle free. The best sunsets!
Just an hour out of Auckland and you will be instantly rewarded with Port Waikato and all it has to offer. Plus this little house has everything you need for a getaway.
NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Clean the house and do the dishes before you leave; Bring your own linen (towels/sheets/tea towels);
great yard for all to enjoy
Fabulous property for utter relaxation. 5 minutes walk from miles of sand dunes which seem to change daily in shape & size. Few mins drive from wild surf beach & fabulous cafe, plus the dairy and the wharf which is great for swimming around/jumping off. Definitely recommend this accommodation & location. Charming spot, great interior decoration and creative use of items in house i.e. beach wood for shelves, paddles for towel rail. Awesome, a true 'bach' feel :)
It was a wild, wet morning on arrival, and the heater warmed the house up quickly. The decor is cheerful and had everything we required. My niece enjoyed exploring the section and all the quirky art pieces dotted around. It is a peaceful location, and a great getaway for some down time.
A lovely warm batch, the most uniquely decorated place I have ever stayed, every time you look around you notice something more! We just loved it!!
It was so peaceful to hear the Tuis right outside our window.
Take your own fruit, as we didn't and at $1.20 per apple from the local store, we regretted it! Also Sylvias the restaurant is not open June-Sept, so either cook or we went out in Tuakau to watch the AB's rugby game.
Would recommend to anyone wanting a break, and just to chill out!
Awesome place to come and stay! Would recommend to anyone. Was second time staying and enjoyed just as much as first!
Port Waikato is a beautiful and peaceful location and this bach captures the essence of it all. The moment you enter the bach, you know you're on holiday.
We stayed here in winter and the house was very warm, especially the sleep-out! We also enjoyed having all our meals on the deck and listening to the tuis.
Really hope to come back again and for longer next time
Great bach with everything you could need. This was our second time staying, as we enjoyed it so much the first time. It was like being on a family retreat, with no internet, no phone, and no tv. A much needed rest from the stress and technology of life.
