The mates rates thing is not a sustainable business model, nor an ethical one. It means a brand new cyclist wandering into a shop will basically be ripped off until they've been ripped off enough times to be regarded a "mate", and then they'll get good prices. That is obviously not ok. It's bad for the shops, and it's bad for cycling in Australia.
Cliques - not a good thing.
tell me how a bike store is offering 'terrible prices' if they're getting a rough deal from their supplier?
The prices for many items on line are unachievable by most Aussie bike shops and you seem hell bent on placing the entire blame at the feet of the shops.
No one is arguing that that there's some room for movement, and the bike stores are playing catch up with the advent of on line trading, but so is the majority of the retail sector.
You're also unwilling to take any one else's POV on board, you keep going on about the same 'mates rates BS' , and to assume that the shop is blatantly trying to rip people off who are new to the sport is pretty piss weak and untrue.
You've been riding for how long? how many people and mates do you know and have in the industry? by your own reckoning, probably none cos they are all money hungry crooks.
I have a lot of mates who own bike shops - none of them drive Porsches or BWMs and live in mansions by the sea.
They are all enthusiasts who certainly aren't doing it for the money.
99% of people on here got their start on a bike probably bought at a bike store (I know I did, and most the people I race with and TT with did also).
So we're all fools that got ripped off then?
A FWIW - I know I can go to any of my mate's shops for a tube if I've got a puncture, and they'll change my tyre, for free.
No doubt I spend money in there, but that's not the point - they could charge me for the tube, but they don't , cos I'll tell other's about them and they'll make money from a future sale.
Here's another example.
Northwave Evo SBS shoes - I purchased last year from a mate's shop - at cost price, for my birthday from my mate for $279 - that's the price he paid Orbea for them, whole sale.
They are selling RRP in his shop for $325 - so he makes $45 per pair, that's it.
Wiggle sell the same shoes for $240 - so retail price for that same shoe on line is $40 less whole sale in Australia.
Is that the bike shops fault?

Church blesses bikes to celebrate Earth Day
Church blesses bikes to celebrate Earth Day
APTOS, Calif. —
St. John's Episcopal Church in Aptos is commemorating Earth Day through the blessing of the bikes Sunday morning.
Parishioners were encouraged to ride to church this Sunday, and many people took advantage of the beautiful day in order to do so.
This is the church's first blessing of the bikes ceremony. It's part of a greater message to churchgoers and the community.
The Episcopal Church of St. John is the first "green" church in Santa Cruz county, boasting a permeable black-top and an underground cistern that collects rainwater and then distributes it to the surrounding plant life. There's also a patio containing crushed oyster shells.
The church doors are made of solid cedar.

Javelin Re-Boot
January 10, 2010, 08:10:09 pm »
The year is 2533. Civilizations have risen and fallen in these times. Now, it is the time of a civilization rising to perfection. No longer is man mystified by space. The stars and space have become the new oceans to explore. New worlds have been found and terraformed into different civilizations to expand mans journey to conquer the universe. Most ships that fly into space are either transport or cargo ships. It has been known that there are pirate ships out to overthrow said ships. It also has been known that the people on transported ships have been turned into slaves and the cargo that usually held medicine to the smaller civilizations have vanished into thin air. A group called The Company has been known to keep space travel to a minimum safety. The Company acts like the Army, the Government, and everything in between. Most people dont know what the Company does, but people do not question it.
Some people have found out what they do. They are found and they are killed. A small band of folks on the ship,
are running for their lives because of what the Company is doing. Not wanting to go and try to save the world, The Company heard about what they know and has ordered everything and everyone to go after them. Half of the crew of the
dont know why they are casted out because they have done nothing wrong. The Company has figured this out and has branded the
as outcasts and traitors to the Utopian society. On the run, the shipmates of the
learn to survive in the depths of space. Getting along with each other and hoping for the best.
has caused an uneasiness within The Company. The Company sent out bounty hunters to track the ship and to wipe their existence from memory. Bounty Hunters are crude and sadistic people who live in the coldness of space. They are good at what they do. Give them a picture and last known whereabouts, bounty hunters will be known to find who they are looking for in about two weeks. Less if it is a large group of people. Bounty Hunters go for the biggest pot. If someone gives them a random sum, they will do it; unless someone else gives them a larger sum for their trouble. Not only Bounty Hunters are tracking the crew, but Bounty Hunters are slowly killing each other off so they are the ones to get the prize.
USS Nautilus
is run by Captain Jules Nemo Winchester, also known as Petty Officers father. The Nautilus is a crew that is under strict orders of The Company and will be helping the Bounty Hunters to bring in the traitors to The Company. However, since one of the
crew is the daughter of the famed Captain Winchester, The Company had specifically given this task to their Captain to see how he would react. If he succeeds, then he will be able to rise even further in the ranks of The Company. Should he fall, the rest of his family will be killed. Be wary of the Bounty Hunters that come aboard the
, for they might also have a bounty on your head as well.
The choice is now yours. Will you help the ample crew of the
of the
? Or will you hunt them down and keep the unruly rebels quiet to keep you afloat? Choose wisely.
Javelin crew, Nautilus crew, or other:
Sample NPC:
: Captain Jules Nemo Winchester
: 53
Nautilus Crew:
: Captain of the
USS Nautilus
for The Company. Grey hair and brown eyes. Wears the Captains uniform with his three medals won from the Great Wars almost thirty years ago. He loves his job and is a family man. His career is military and he has been working with The Company for almost his entire life.
: Seems like a sullen and deceitful man, but is actually quite a loveable person. When he is at work, he rarely shows emotion. However, when it comes to The Company and his family, he will rightfully choose his career first. However, because of certain events that have risen, he has started to question his loyalty and what matters most to him.
: Fought in the Great Wars. Married with four kids. Two boys and two girls. Is one of many people after the
. Mostly to help save his daughter from eventual death.
: Carries a sidearm with him as well as a pocket watch from his great grandfather.
My PC:
: Laney Hailfax Winchester
: 21
Javelin crew, Nautilus crew, other:
Javelin crew. Navigator and co-pilot
: Short, gets made fun for her height all the time. Black hair. Left eye, brown. Right eye, blue. Wears a blue jumpsuit and a black t-shirt. Hardly wears the top half of the jumpsuit. Wears boots and wears a watch on her right wrist. Scar across the bridge of her nose.
: Cheerful and optimistic. She tries to lead, but fails miserably. She tries to help people out as much as she can. She doesnt want to change like the majority of the crew with their animal-like characteristics.
: Grew up on ships because of her father. The second youngest sibling. The Company needed amble bodies and she was chosen to be apart of the
. Unfortunately, she didnt know the consequences to this choice. Petty Officer on the ship (used to be), now she helps out by Navigating the ship and sometimes flying. Sometimes, she also checks the storage compartments. (checking them off and seeing whats there)
: Goggles and carries a sidearm.
- No godmodding, etc
- Post more than one sentence, etc
Please try not to post all at once. Remember last time? It became a mess. Keep it slow and steady. Plot will come around, chickees, dont you worry.
- I am in charge of The Company. If you have any questions, feel free to ask and I shall answer in either in the thread or in PM. The RP is going to be lenient than a lot of the others ones here on the forum because this one was just based off of an idea in the Insanity Thread.
- Have fun.
- Im allowing people to have at least two characters if they desire. They can be on the same team or on different teams. Just as long as I know who is who, sall good. Plots kinda dumb, but meh. Its all about running around and making sure that we can stop whatever.

Where we last left off:
Before the forum went BOOM, the Javelin crew was heading to the planet, Torngasoak because for repairs and supplies since the last planet visit didnt work out as well. While the Javelin crew headed to Torngasoak, the Nautilus crew head pass the Caroon mines. There, Captain Winchester was infected with the disease that infected the townsfolk that still live there. After escaping, they found themselves on the planet Marco, where the infectious disease turned the Captain into a hideous monster, but he was able to revert back after fighting with a couple of amble crewmates. After getting subdued, the Nautilus crew wonders what to do with their Captain. Meanwhile, while all this is happening, many bounty hunters are making their way toward Torngasoak to try and get the Javelin crew and get the bounty that the Company offered for their heads.
For people who played before. I need your profiles once again. New players fill out the template and let me know if you want to be apart of the Javelin, Nautilus, or bounty hunters. Yay.

Sweet butts and coconuts.
Name: Zaaldonius "Sammich" Darkblood
Age: 1,000+
Javelin crew, Nautilus crew, or other: Javelin
Description: Sammich is tall and lanky with an athletic build. His skin is pale and cold to the touch. Sammich's facial structure is sharp. He has nearly inverted eyes; the whites are black and the pupils are yellow. His hair is black and reaches his center back. He is prone to wear a black sleeveless shirt, dark grey pants, knee-high black boots, and black biker gloves. When abroad he wears a black wide-brimmed hat and a black trench coat. He also has a wraith form which appears to be a black, almost flame-like humanoid shape with glowing yellow eyes.
Personality: At first glance some find Sammich intimidating. But when they hold a conversation with him, they realize that he is very kind and well-spoken. He is the perfect gentleman and only raises a fist--or a gun--if he absolutely has to. He is mostly a loner, usually seeking refuge in the darker corners of the ship to rid himself of noise, but he loves people all the same. He is very quirky, sometimes prone to things like quick head-tilts or crouching on a chair rather than sitting. While he may seem innocent and off in the clouds, he is far from it and has more blood on his hands than anyone could ever imagine.
History: Zaaldonius Darkblood's early years are not something he wishes to speak about. But, from what people have gathered via small tid-bits he told them, he walked planet Earth before many of them were born. Not that he remembered a lot of it. He did, however, remember jumping through trees, free and one with nature. But then there came memories of killing people who passed through, or finding a town and killing entire families at night. No one could ever find the corpses because he brought them back to his cave for feasting. The location seemed to be somewhere in Eastern Europe. People called him the "Demon Negru" or "Black Demon" as he translated later. He remembered looking in a mirror once and seeing his reflection: A black, wavering form with glowing yellow eyes.
The clearest memories of his were when he was caged in a laboratory, surrounded by scientists. They performed tests on him for days, months, maybe years. At first he was crazed and enraged--he even managed to kill the head scientist by ripping off his legs--but eventually he was reduced to a whimpering animal. The scientists stumbled upon the fact that he had a dormant human form which they eventually brought forth. One day the dead doctor's assistant removed him from the cage and took him aboard a ship. It was there that he was shown mercy: He was taught to behave like a human (for he looked like one), he was taught to read, to speak, and numerous other things. In addition, he was taught how to control his powers. He found he could slip through objects and transport a few yards ahead. The scientist would always give him turkey sandwiches for a job well-done.
It was a long process, and by the end the man had grown old and tired. But Zaaldonius was changed, not a monster any longer. The scientist left him with two revolvers, telling him that his power could be used to save lives.
After many years of traveling and learning--books became a love interest and philosophy a friend--he became a bounty hunter. This profession was chosen because none other felt right; he couldn't fall into the ranks of soldiers and law enforcers because he found a lot of them weren't trying to save anything. But he had been given a task, and so bounty hunting it was. He stumbled upon a man named Cricco Sorridante who was searching for crew members of his ship. Zaaldonius, eager to travel the stars and experience new things, joined in a snap. The crew began calling him Sammich due to his love for turkey sandwiches. Old habits die hard.
He went on bounty hunting missions when they touched down onto a planet. While scouting for contracts he stumbled upon one from The Company, their previous employer. So it seemed they had a bounty on their head.
Equipment: Dual revolvers.
I'll post Kharon's sheet later.

Here are all three:
20 (Badger years)
Javelin crew:
Javelin's Resident Badger/hall monitor
He is a 3' long, twenty pound raging ball of fur, teeth, and claw. That out of the way, Harloc is a Badger. Not much more to say about him except that he wears a vest of a dark red tailored to his Badger proportions.
Well, to start off, he is a talking badger. And being such, he is happy with just about anything. He is always on the look out to be of assisstance anywhere.
Before the split of the Javelin from The Company, he was a normal badger living in the cargo hold of the Javelin with several other animals and their keeper, a bear named Raryn. When on a planetary stop, Raryn decided to leave the ship with most of the animals, Harloc decided to stay around. He eventually developed the ability to speak the human language and since has been a member of the Javelin crew. Recently, he has been learning how to cook.
Doesn't have any because he is a badger.
Ludwig Garo III
Javelin crew:
6'9" tall weighing around 1000 pounds, he is of an alien race that decended from the earthian species Moose. A powerful upper body with legs that seem alomost to thin to support him. His head is of the same shape of a moose and he has a set of antlers upon his head that from tip to tip are 5 feet in diameter. As for his clothes, he wears a pair of light brown pants, a black vest and a top hat. Over this he wears a white cooks apron when actually cooking food.
He is a jolly figure, always laughing at something. But don't let his disposition fool you, for he is strong, very strong, and will.
Much of the young Ludwig's early life was spent in schooling him to become an ambassador for his race. But he eventually grew tired of a life of politics and the like and eventually devoted himself to the art of culinary mastery. In other words, he went from politician to chef. With this change in occupation, the entire galaxy opened to him, for a few years he was planet hopping, learning new ways to cook. Then, while he was on a transport shuttle jumping between Huron and Torngasoak, the shuttle was attacked by space pirates and shot down. A distress signal was issued and the Javelin responded. With his rescue, he decided to sign aboard the ship as its resident cook.
Giant frying pan and various cuttlery
Marc Gillespie
Nautilus crew:
4'3" and built like a linebacker. He has dark brown tanned skin and thick red hair and an equally thich red beard. He is, in essence, a stereotypical portrayal of a Dwarf.
Strong minded and loyal to his leader and mission.
He grew up on a small moon colony that had a high metal ore repository. Through his childhood and young adult life he spent almost all of it below ground working in the mines of the moon. That is, until he turned his eyes to the sky and a hole in his heart formed. He grew a want to be set free from the ground, to be free from the all suffocating effects of the earth. His chance came on a routine ore pick-up by the Company. In an unlikely event of one of the guards watching over the cargo bay doors of the ship, he managed to slip on board. He was discovered and was incarcerated and jailed by the Company. He eventually managed to convince someone within the Company to let him join. He wanted something to make himself whole since and he felt that loyalty to an orginization like the Company whould fill it. He went through the training and became a main gunner and has since served on the Nautilus.
A pick axe made of special metal and a pair of snub-nosed revolvers.

Name: Karl "Sarge" DoMant
Age: 32
Javelin crew: Freelance Engineer
Description: A strange sort, Karl is a largish man mostly because of his cybernetic implants, the most noticeable of which is his left arm. It's made out of heavy equipment parts and has a sort of cobbled together look, but being a tinker, Karl's inventions are always more than they seem. He also has a cybernetic eye, heart, and his right lung as well. Bad War accident. He doesn't talk about it.
Personality: Karl is a charming sort, but he's very introverted. Never really asks for anything or goes out of his way to be social, however he will talk to people if he is talked to. He's very content around machinery, although his machinations end up focusing on whatever ship he's on as well. Believes that all ships have personalities and he tries to figure out the one he's on, then upgrades it with whatever is laying around. Most of the time it's for the better.
History: Karl is a Veteran of the Short-lived Plutonian Rebellion the 20's (On the side of the Government), after being raised a devout rich kid on Titan. He joined the Military mostly due to his want to give back to his government for treating him and his family so well, but he became very disillusioned after the war. He received a laser artillery round right through his chest and it exploded right behind him. They patched him up with surplus parts, patted him on the back, and kicked him out. He's been tinkering with his arm ever since and developed quite the ear for anything mechanical. Very distrustful of the government, short of being a conspiracy theorist. Unless he's got proof it's right.
Equipment: Light tool kit (Minor repairs), Plasma Welder (In arm), Power Wrench (In Arm), Targeting system (In eye), Filtration system (In throat), and Short-barreled Needler shotgun (Fires plastic needles instead of pellets. Safer to fire on ships)

Woo! This sounds bad ass! As usual, lemme know if anything doesn't fit!
Sharp Vickr Delgan. a.k.a The Mad Martian
Javelin crew, Nautilus crew, or other:
(Neutral) Bounty Hunter and Pilot of The Hornet
6-0, 190lbs. Vikr has a thin face with medium-length red/brown hair that he combs back, dark red eyes, some wisps of a beard, a scar on his lip and small tattoo on the side of his neck. He is broad shouldered and muscular. He wears a black cadet hat, a black zippered turtleneck, woodland camouflage pants, and shined black boots.
Vickr is unusually diplomatic and charismatic for a bounty hunter-a title he dismisses. He can be calm and direct, and has successfully talked down several bounties. However, he hides a fiery temper and a hot-blooded attitude. Beneath his gentle surface lie a ruthless hunter and a pragmatic fighter. He has a skewed perspective about the universe and the people in it: especially women and non-human species.
Vickr was born, raised, and abandoned on Mars. One day when he was twelve years old, his parents simply left him in their home and disappeared. After managing to take care of himself for a few weeks, he realized the weight of the situation: he was abandoned, alone and unwanted. Having run out of food, he lived on the streets for a few more weeks. The older vagrants took pity on the young boy and shared what little they had with him.
One day, a young woman named Sunny found Vickr begging outside of a liquor store; she took him in and raised him as her own. Sunny, a common prostitute, showed him more compassion and love than either of his parents had. She bought him books so he could be home schooled, she helped him get a job as a busboy at a local bar, and taught him about what it meant to be a man. She was his mother and his big sister, and he loved her dearly.
His teen years were confusing and violent: crime rates in Mars red light districts were always high and he figured out how Sunny made the money to support them. He held in this confusion and hurt until he began to lash out at anyone he could: friends, co-workers, street thugs, etc. He started all of his fights and he usually lost.
When he was sixteen, Sunny died. A careless John, a heavy-handed pimp, the police wouldnt tell him. It was UNDER INVESTIGATION. So Vickr asked around, found out who her pimp was and who he worked for. He was not a fool however; he knew that the streets had rules. So he found the representative of one of the citys larger gangs, and offered to kill the rival pimp-for free. The next morning, the local police had a new case UNDER INVESTIGATION.
After a few years of doing freelance work for many of the gangs and crime syndicates in the area, Vickr decided that it was time to think big. Using his savings he purchased a ticket to Yaochi. It was here that he began to make a name for himself as a bounty hunter.
Now, years later, he has a new ship, keen fighting skills, and a multitude of connections. Vickr is a man who keeps his finger on the pulse. He was last seen leaving Justice after dropping off a bounty.
-Delia: a high-power semi-automatic pistol.
-V-33 Grenade launcher: a pump-action launcher that fires grenades-including smoke, tranquilizer, and explosive rounds.
-Hand held Tranquilizer Syringe
-Bolo Knife w/ matte finish
-Boot Knife
The Hornet: a prototype fighter craft made in limited quantities. It is now an obsolete model. However, it has been restored and outfitted by Sharp. It is very small, fast, and agile
-Single seat cockpit
-Storage area: can fit one (1) large person or two (2) average size persons
-Two (2) Machine guns mounted in the nose
-One (1) Plasma Cannon mounted on the underside.

Name: Lucy Garland
Age: 19
Javelin crew, Nautilus crew, or other: Javelin
Description: Lucy has long, dark drown hair and big green eyes. She is short, thin, and fair-skinned, sometimes appearing younger than she is.
Her dress often consists of skirts and dresses when on planets, but around the ship she'll often wear baggy cargos and a hoody, with a white piece of cloth hanging around her neck.
Personality: Always the quiet one, Lucy often keeps to herself, choosing to hide in her room and practice violin. She only emerges when need be, like to eat or if she is called for. She is a very sweet, caring girl despite her cold exterior, and is very friendly when brought out of her shell.
History: Lucy was once a rising star in the classical violin world, having performed in front of hundreds of thousands and released an album. Her fame, however, did not bring her happiness. Her family saw her as more of an investment than a daughter, and the pressure of constant performances and appearances began to affect her health, both mentally and physically. Sick of it all, she grabbed her violin, packed a suitcase, and ran away, hiding in the cargo hold of a ship called the Javelin. The young stowaway soon became an unofficial member of the crew, trading work and free music for shelter and protection. The search for her was eventually called off and she was considered dead, finally freeing her from her old life.
Lucy befriended many members of the Javelin crew over her year and a half of hiding, in particular a young blind man who played piano with her. Unfortunately, he was killed in an encounter with bounty hunters, shielding the girl with his own body. Lucy fell into depression soon after, keeping to herself and becoming more and more quiet. She keeps his blindfold and knife to remember his sacrifice, feeling an odd comfort when she has them with her.
Equipment: Violin, old combat knife

Yes you do. Get to it.
I'll be starting this in the next couple of weeks. I would've started it this weekend, but my African American Lit class for some reason needs me to write a reflection on every goddamn work we read, I find this pointless. So yeah. Once I get used to that kind of writing flow, I'll post up the start up again.

LG G Flex 2 may bend up to 90 degrees
According to ZDNet Korea, users will be able to see a mobile phone that will be capable of bending up to 90 degrees in the future.
LG has promised that the G Flex 2 will be a truly bendable smartphone saying the device will be "bendable with force," according to the Korean website.
Both of the currently bendy phones – the LG G Flex and the Samsung Galaxy Round – don't bend to this degree and also have not yet made it out of the Asian market.
The battle of the bend appears to be between these two companies as Samsung has been researching flexible displays for a while. However, the next-generation LG G Flex could beat its rival to release the first actually bendy handset.
However, as neither the LG G Flex or Samsung Galaxy Round has made it to the UK, it could be that people outside of Asia won't see the next generation of flexible handsets either.

2017 is underway, which means it's a new year of junkin' journey road trips! To kick it off, we recently headed down the highway to my home state capital: Columbia, South Carolina. Now, Columbia isn't all that far away from me…and I don't really know why I waited so long to explore the vintage/junking scene there!
Before I begin, though, I want to give a special shout-out to my Columbia-area friends that recommended some of the places that we hit- so thank you to Shanika Pichey, Melissa at Restoration 41, and April Blake! They pointed me in the right direction and helped shape my itinerary with some great suggestions.
Speaking of which, ready to see where I went and what I loved?Read more ›

Cocktail Umbrella Accent Lamp
Cocktail umbrellas are far too cute to use in drinks only to toss in the trash when you reach the bottom of the glass. A recent trip to the dollar store scored us a couple of packs of the pretty paper umbrellas and a great idea for an accent lamp.
These lamps are pretty, whimsical, and surprisingly sturdy in construction. (No, not sturdy enough to give to your preschooler!) We used a battery operated tea light to take care of the unsightly cord issue, but the tea lights are pretty low in actual light, so you might want to use this idea to go a different direction. A pendant lamp with a cheap kit from IKEA would be fabulous!
Supplies needed:
- Styrofoam disc
- 2+ packages of cocktail umbrellas
- Small vase or glass
- Battery-operated tealight or other light source
- Knife
Umbrellas: You can find the cocktail umbrellas in the dining supplies section of the dollar store, but buy at least one extra box because they aren't the most quality-controlled item in the universe. Some parasols may not open correctly, or you might want specific colors, etc. If you can't find them at the dollar store, check your local party supply or liquor store.
Vase: We used a teeny lead crystal cut vase, but a small drinking glass or votive holder would also work well.
Do this:
- Mark an indentation in the middle of the Styrofoam disc with the tea light.
- Cut a hole through the disc in the spot you marked.
- Fit tea light into disc. If hole is too small, carve a bit more out with your knife. If it's too large, put tape around your tea light until it fits snugly.
- You will be able to switch the tea light on or off from the bottom of the disc. You'll also be able to remove the tea light and replace it when the battery runs out.
- Create an indentation in the bottom of the Styrofoam disc so it fits securely on the lamp base.
- Open the cocktail umbrellas by gently prying open with your fingers until they are extended all the way. Slide the little rubber band all the way up the toothpick to keep them open.
- Begin building the lampshade by pushing open umbrellas picks into the disc.
- Continue adding umbrellas to the lampshade until you are happy with the way it looks.

Interphex 2006 Preview: The Best of the Phex
This year's event builds upon the success of the 2005 show, with increases in both exhibitors and educational sessions.
For the pharmaceutical manufacturing crowd, the annual Interphex show in New York City is as much a sign of spring as the coming of robins, tulips and baseball. Interphex 2006 — March 21-23 at the Javits Convention Center — promises once again to be bigger and better than last year, with more exhibitors, more targeted speaker sessions, and three stimulating keynotes to give shape and definition to the event.
Keynote addresses for 2006 include:
- Tuesday, 8:45 a.m.:
- Greg Simon, president of the non-profit FasterCures, makes his case for speeding up the development and delivery of medications for patients with life-threatening diseases, and outlines the tools needed to do it.
- Wednesday at 8:45 a.m.:
- Robert Bazell, chief science and health correspondent for NBC Nightly News, will host a panel discussion on the speed, safety and efficiency challenges facing drug manufacturers today. Joining Bazell will be executives Peter Loescher of GE Healthcare BioSciences, Richard Siegel of Centocor Biologics and Patrick Yang of Genentech.
- Thursday, 8:45 a.m.:
- The regulatory perspective this year is handled by Scott Gottleib, M.D., FDA's deputy commissioner for medical and scientific affairs. The topic: agency initiatives for improving drug development and the public health.
Four on the floors
Visitors to the Javits session rooms and exhibition halls will again have four tracks down which to tread. Here's a quick look at what the speaker sessions have to offer for each track:
PharmaFacilities: The Need for Speed. The facilities track has sessions on Lean, and on Green — check out O'Neal, Inc.'s Tim Crosby's "Designing Green" talk on Tuesday afternoon — but one dominant theme is how to design and build in record time. Two noteworthy presentations:
- Wednesday morning, Ole Broch Nielson of NNE A/S instructs how to build a vaccine facility from the ground up in "11 fast-tracked months."
- Thursday morning, Cook Pharmica's Jerry Arthur recounts how Cook's new biotech site was built and validated in a mere 26 months.
PharmaIT: The Paper Chase. The PharmaIT sessions not only look good on paper, but on "paperless" as well. Don't miss:
- VelQuest's John Helfrich on the "GMP Electronic Notebook System — PAT Technology for QC Lab Operations," on Wednesday afternoon.
- Thursday, Taratec's Ray Lockard tours the "Paperless Shop Floor."
IT will also be heavy on radio frequency identification (RFID), of course. One of the better figures to be "RFID Bionics — RFID-Enabled Products and Services for Pharmaceuticals," led by RFID Technical Institute's Ann Grackin and ChainLink Research's Carla Reed.
PharmaManufacturing: Beyond PAT. Process Analytical Technology disccusions will fill the session rooms, but the manufacturing track has much more to offer. Several talks devoted to regulatory issues should be well worth the price of admission:
- Aegis Analytical's Justin Neway assesses the impact of FDA's risk-based model on pharma and biotech manufacturers, Wednesday afternoon.
- Later that day, Simon Forder of JM Hyde Consulting will comment on "Cleaning Compliance Points to Consider."
- Thursday, get an overview of "Regulatory Asset Management," with James Erickson of Blue Mountain Quality Resources.
PharmaSourcing: All About Relationships. Effective partnering is more important than ever. This track offers plenty of help in how to source right. One that sounds like a can't-miss: "Global Innovation and New Products: 'Virtual' Teams, 'Real' Money," by Prof. Sushil Bhatia of Suffolk University.
Put on your walking shoes
When you've had enough of PowerPoints and laser pointers, head to the exhibition halls for what's new in equipment and technology. Assorted pavilions will help you channel your energies. They include:
- Automation
- Packaging
- Contamination Control
- International
- Rockwell Automation Partners
When you drop by the booths, you'll find plenty of tote bags, slinkies and other show freebies. More importantly, there will be the latest offerings from the industry's top vendors.
Following is a preview of some of the best stops on the show floor:
CLEAN and STERILE PROCESSING
Sterile Hose Labeling System
Eliminate unsanitary tags! The AdvantaLABEL identification system uses pure silicone to encase labels and optional color stripes for coding purposes. Labels carry customer-supplied text and use different color-stripe combinations to identify departments, materials within the hose, temperatures and other data. Also on display, disposable sterile batch filling assemblies, which eliminate leaks and entrapment problems found with the use of barb-type fittings.
AdvantaPure, Booth 1637
Fluid Handling Components
ResistoPure is a brand of products offered by Resistoflex for the biotech, pharmaceutical, food & beverage, and cosmetics industries. The ResistoPure brand differs from traditional Resistoflex fluid handling components in that products and processes are designed to meet the critical needs of the sanitary and aseptic markets.
Crane Co., Booth A1739
Chemical-Resistant Process Vent Pipe
PermaShield Pipe (PSP) is a Factory Mutual Systems-approved corrosion-resistant vent pipe system for use without sprinklers. PSP's proprietary, highly chemical-resistant, fluoropolymer ETFE coating on stainless steel ducts or pipes can be cut to length in the field and can be cut into for new branch lines or measuring ports.

I taught in Korea and Thailand (out of Australia) before coming to Jakarta. The best thing I brought is a couple of CD wallets, packed with over 100 of my favorite cd's. throw them in the suitcase, takes up very little space, but a CD/VCD player from the department store here - real cheap. lots of pirate cd's as in thailand, but not a great selection and the plastic quality is poor, so they may not last. if you take medication like anti-depressants its a good idea to bring it with you in a big supply 'cause its expensive in Jakarta. if you take anti-ageing hormones or viagara, the opposite is so. I find it possible to get anything i need as far as consumables are concerned. its not as cheap as some places i have lived, but the selection of western foods and products is really great and affordable. it just takes a hell of a long time getting to a department store in dense traffic. it really would be faster to walk in jakarta most times, except the sidewalks are crammed with crappy eateries and junk. indonesian people are cool, just take care at night in poorer areas. the air is disgusting and garbage everywhere. you will make some great friends and find that there is something about Indonesia that draws you in. if and when yoy leave, you will want to return.

You can get vegemite here but (at the risk of offending my antipodean cousins) it is greatly inferior. On the more practical side, yeah some sort of waterproof would be useful - when it rains here, it really rains. Bring lightweight clothes coz when it's not raining it's hot and sweaty. That said, you can buy those things here, and at a fraction of the cost that you'd pay back home. A basic Bahasa Indonesia phrasebook is worth its weight in gold in those first couple of months. (By the way, is your school going to give you any language lessons?) I can recommend the Rough Guide phrasebook/mini dictionary. But above all (El Llama assumes the lotus position) bring an open mind.

Oathbringer is out! Let's make our policy on spoilers clear!
1. You must preface topics with Oathbringer spoilers with the prefix [OB] in the front
2. You are only allowed to post spoilers and spoiler topics in the Oathbringer Spoiler Board, Cosmere Theories, and some select work-related forums.
3. For posts in the Oathbringer Spoiler Board you do not need to use spoiler tags inside a topic marked [OB]. For Cosmere Theories, you also do not need to put spoiler tags inside your topic if the topic has [OB] in the title. However, for Cosmere Theories, if you are adding Oathbringer stuff to an old theory without the [OB] tag, those must go in spoiler tags and you must make it obvious outside the spoiler tag that the spoiler is regarding Oathbringer content.
4. For select things that do require talking about OB spoilers, in Events, Coppermind, and Arcanum forums, those are allowed but keep OB spoilers in spoiler tags
5. Avoid and minimize spoilers in topic titles--even though those two boards will not appear in the Recent Topics ticker, topic titles still appear in Recent Activity and the forum home.
6. You aren't allowed to post Oathbringer spoilers in places other than listed, even with spoiler tags.
It will be nine months and then the Oathbringer board will be re-merged with the Stormlight board and you will not need to tag these spoilers.
If you'd like to move something in the Stormlight Archive board to the Oathbringer board, to update it with new Oathbringer information, Report the post and we will happily move it to the Oathbringer spoiler board.
Part-by-part Reactions
Though the Oathbringer Spoiler Board will be very spoilery, very fast (maybe don't come there until you've read the book, as people do have copies that bookstores sold early), you'll have these five topics for reactions if you want to nerd out:
Part 1 Reactions
Part 2 Reactions
Part 3 Reactions
Part 4 Reactions
Full Book Reactions
For parts 1-4, they will not include the interludes immediately following it.
On Discord
All Oathbringer spoilers on Discord will be exclusively in the #oathbringer_spoilers channel for the nine month spoiler period and nowhere else.

Woodbury Setting Out on RV Adventure in Iceland
August 29, 2011 by RVBusiness · Comments Off on Woodbury Setting Out on RV Adventure in Iceland
RVtravel.com editor Chuck Woodbury begins a one-week RV trip in Iceland today. The Seattle-based journalist will travel the country's 831-mile ring road in a small motorhome furnished by Happy Campers of Reykjavik. He will blog daily beginning Tuesday (Aug. 30) in a website he set up especially for the trip, RvIceland.com, as well as on his RVtravel.com Facebook page.
"Most RVers I've talked with have no idea you can even travel Iceland with an RV," said Woodbury, who has explored all of the U.S., including Alaska, by motorhome, along with New Zealand and parts of Europe "The fact is, there are campgrounds everywhere, from primitive to what we in the United States would consider full-service RV parks. And you can pull over beside the road just about anywhere with no problems."
About two-thirds of the country's 320,000 residents live in the capital city of Reykjavik or its suburbs. "After leaving there you will see a lot of wide-open spaces, mostly tundra, with only a handful of isolated settlements, few with populations over 500," he said. "But whatever rural cultural amenities Iceland lacks it more than makes up for in natural attractions: Iceland is known for spectacular scenery, volcanoes, recent and ancient lava flows, hot springs including the famous Blue Lagoon just outside Reykjavik, glaciers and Europe's largest waterfall."
Although Iceland is the "world's most wired" Internet nation, getting online will be a challenge for Woodbury outside of Reykjavik. "Thankfully many gas stations have free WiFi," he said. "I figure I'll stop often when I find one to file my reports." Woodbury is packing along video gear to post short reports to RvIceland.com and YouTube.
Woodbury's first feature article from the country will be in his next RVtravel.com newsletter on Sept. 3.

Sheryl Laitinen, 55, who died in a crash Saturday night in New Hampshire, had recently found happiness after a rough stretch of her life.
She and James Bazinet, 47, had just moved to Worcester from Millbury and Dudley. Mr. Bazinet, a truck driver, and Ms. Laitinen, who worked at a bank, got engaged two weeks ago, her family said, and were very happy.
"She was the happiest, happiest person and was so excited about the wedding," her younger sister Sally A. Paquin of Southbridge said. "She was the best, most amazing person in the world."
Ms. Laitinen, (formerly Sheryl DiRienzo) was killed when her 2012 Dodge Charger went off the road Saturday night and hit a tree in Nashua, N.H., killing her and critically injuring her fianc�, who was driving.
Mr. Bazinet was still in critical condition yesterday at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, according to Nashua police and fire officials.
The crash occurred around 11:20 Saturday night on Searles Road near Middle Dunstable Road and is still under investigation. Nashua fire officials said the roads were icy Saturday night, but would not comment on whether that contributed to the crash.
Ms. Laitinen's newfound happiness followed a period of mourning for her first-born child, Mrs. Paquin said. Her mentally challenged son, Daniel C. DiRienzo Jr., died two years ago at 26 from a heart attack in her home, she said.
"He was such a sweet kid," Mrs. Paquin said of her nephew. "Sheryl would do everything for him. It was mentally disturbing for her that she couldn't save him. Now they are together in heaven. That is the way I am looking at it."
Ms. Laitinen was one of six daughters who helped care for her aging parents. Her father, Paul B. Laitinen Jr., 82, of Millbury, was recently hospitalized for blood clots in his lungs and almost died, Mrs. Paquin said. He helps care for their mother, Frances A. Laitinen, 80, who has Alzheimer's disease, she said.
Mr. Laitinen said his daughters help him and his wife with laundry, shopping and household chores.
He said Sheryl Laitinen brought him his prescription Saturday afternoon and said she was on her way to a Christmas party in Nashua at her fianc�'s friend's house.
"She was very much in love," Mr. Laitinen said. "I think because they were both Christian and believed devoutly in God, it made their relationship even stronger."
He said his wife knows their daughter was in an accident, but she is unable to grasp the reality of the situation.
"The whole thing is still surreal," he said. "It is slowly penetrating. Children are not supposed to die before their parents. They are all very, very good daughters. They can't do enough for us. Sheryl was a very gentle, loving daughter with strong beliefs."
He is worried about her fianc�, he said.
"His brain is bleeding — it doesn't sound good," he said.
He said his daughter always wore her seat belt.
He was surprised at the extent of damage to her new car.
"They needed the Jaws of Life to extricate them out of the car," he said. "She had a new Dodge Charger. That is a heavy car. I don't understand why there was so much damage to the car unless they were going too fast. That is a residential area."
Ms. Laitinen's ex-husband, Daniel C. DiRienzo Sr., is owner of American Auto Transport and Recovery in Worcester. The couple were divorced five months ago after 27 years of marriage. Mr. DiRienzo said she turned to religion after their son died. Their other son, Derek P. DiRienzo, 20, was very close with his mother, Mr. DiRienzo said, and is not doing well.
Mr. DiRienzo is taking care of all the funeral arrangements and expenses, the family said.
"I still cared about her as a person," he said. "I'm taking care of everything. She was a good mother. When Danny died two years ago, she just couldn't handle it and turned to religion and started going to church."
He said he is frustrated that authorities in Nashua cannot tell him anything yet about the circumstances surrounding the crash.

NORTHAMPTON, Mass. – Kameron Klauber (Carlsbad, Calif.) scored twice and fellow senior Anna Teruya (Hockessin, Del.) added another goal to help MIT shutout host Smith College, 4-0, in New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) field hockey action Saturday afternoon. Tech jumped out to an early 2-0 lead and never looked back, securing its 10th win on the season (10-2) and improving to 2-1 in league play. Smith falls to 2-7 overall and 0-3 in the NEWMAC.
Molly Duffy (New Providence, N.J.) opened the scoring for MIT just 3:43 into the contest, as Kimberly Barker (Camden, N.Y.) fed the sophomore forward on a two-on-none breakaway. Teruya would find the scoring column just over four minutes later, taking a pass from Barker off of a penalty corner and pushing home her seventh marker of the season.
Klauber added an unassisted tally later in the frame and capped the scoring with help from Michelle Teplensky (Somers, N.Y.), with all four goals coming in the game's first 20 minutes.
The Pioneers would test MIT goalkeeper Casey Landry (Peabody, Mass.) toward the end of the first half, but the sophomore made three consecutive stops to preserve the clean sheet. Landry finished with four saves in just over 60 minutes of action.
The Cardinal and Gray will return home on Tuesday to face conference foe, WPI, in a key matchup. Worcester's version of the Engineers are unbeaten in league play at 2-0, after knocking off defending NEWMAC champion, Babson College, on Saturday. Tuesday's game begins at 6:00 p.m.

SYCAMORE – For as long as she can remember, Noel Smith has been collecting clothing and household goods for those less fortunate.
When she was a girl, she helped her parents collect clothing to send to Africa. When she discovered about 15 years ago that she has Native American ancestry, she changed her focus to help those in some of America's poorest communities.
"My aunt is the one who started the ball rolling with donations," Smith said. "She started with Campbell's Soup labels, and sent them to the Indians instead of sending them to school. Then [our focus] went to baby clothes, and only baby clothes, which we knew a certain reservation would take."
Smith and her daughter, Megan Smith, now collect clothes and household goods throughout the year to ship to the Native American Heritage Association in Rapid City, S.D., for distribution to Sioux tribes in South Dakota and Wyoming. NAHA's website states that two of the poorest counties in the United States are on the Crow Creek and Pine Ridge reservations in South Dakota.
"There is 80 percent unemployment and 70 percent do not have transportation," said Pam Myers, vice president of NAHA. "And this is for a population of 45,000."
NAHA serves six tribes of Sioux American Indians on five reservations in South Dakota and Wyoming. The average life expectancy on the reservations is 58, and infant mortality is 10 times the national average.
"The next thing we know, we somehow got affiliated with NAHA and they take everything – boys, girls, men's, women's – everything," Noel Smith said. "I send them anything and everything, from books to school supplies, sheets, tablecloths, blankets, bath mats, toys, you name it."
The Smiths collect, sort and wash clothing and supplies from friends, family members, church members and even trash receptacles.
"You would not believe the black garbage bags we have found full of designer clothes with the tags still on them," Megan Smith said. The Smiths only send clothing that is in good condition to NAHA; they donate the rest to The DeKalb County Animal Shelter for use as bedding for the animals.
Noel Smith's husband can get discounted freight shipping to South Dakota through his job with FedEx Freight. The Smiths are preparing to send their annual shipment to NAHA later this month and still are seeking items to ship.
Most years, the Smiths send about 50 large boxes full of clothes and supplies to NAHA in two separate freight shipments.
Noel Smith said NAHA is grateful for any and all clothing and supplies that they receive, and every item is used and appreciated.
"People just come to the truck and start crying because they are so thankful that they have something," she said.

East Stroudsburg University faculty members want to halt plans to rename Monroe Hall after recently retired university President Robert Dillman — at least until Dillman's name is cleared of allegations that he covered up alleged sexual abuse committed by a top university official.
East Stroudsburg University faculty members want to halt plans to rename Monroe Hall after recently retired university President Robert Dillman — at least until Dillman's name is cleared of allegations that he covered up alleged sexual abuse committed by a top university official.
In a 2009 lawsuit filed against the university, six male students allege they were sexually harassed and assaulted by Isaac W. Sanders, then the executive director of the ESU Foundation and vice president for advancement at the university. (Three have since had their claims dismissed because the statute of limitations had expired.)
Dillman, other top administrators, and the council of trustees at the time, acted to cover up the alleged abuse, the suit says.
It's been three years, yet university officials have continued to keep quiet about the case, despite continued requests from the faculty for updates, said Ken Mash, vice president of ESU's faculty union.
"The administration and council of trustees say they won't talk about it until the litigation is over," Mash said,
The case has yet to go to trial.
"At the very least, we hope the administration would put off renaming the building until after the results of the investigation come out," he said.
The faculty union had issued two votes of no confidence in Dillman, the last one in 2006, but Mash said "that's water under the bridge."
The union's concern is whether Dillman had any role in an alleged cover-up, which Mash likened to the efforts of Penn State officials to conceal acts of sexual abuse committed by former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky.
"The Sandusky thing was far worse and involves children and was horrible. Where it gets to be the same is you have a potential risk for students, and the question is, 'What does management do in response when things are alleged to have gone on?'"
Sanders was alleged to have pursued unwanted sex with six male students, which included genital groping and oral sex.
The lawsuit portrays Sanders as a sexual predator who tried to trade scholarships and campus jobs for physical intimacy with unwilling young men.
"Why not wait until any shadow of a doubt has been removed" in the Sanders case before naming a building after Dillman, who retired just last month, Mash asked.
"People get honored for lots of reasons. (Dillman) did a lot of good things in the community and good things at the university, too. I'm not sure we would even be talking to the press if it was not for the Isaac Sanders issue," Mash said.
"The real parallel (between ESU and Penn State) has to deal with how the administration handled the issue, and that's what we have questions about. It could be there was no wrongdoing whatsoever, but the public is entitled to know that, too," he said.
"Prior to Dillman's departure in May, the Council of Trustees opted to rename Monroe Hall to honor him for sixteen years of outstanding transitional leadership at East Stroudsburg University," said a July 11 email sent to the campus community earlier this month from Council of Trustees Chairman Pat Ross.
Mash said the email was the first faculty members heard of the decision to rename the building.
The university is in the process of updating all campus maps, which are updated every summer, and a new sign is being prepared for the building, said Richard Staneski, ESU's vice president of finance and administration, when asked about the name change earlier this month. Mash questioned why a sign was ordered and maps changed if ESU Trustees had yet to vote on the name change. "People should at least have a chance to comment on it," he said.
The email that went out to the campus earlier this month announcing Dillman Hall was "premature," Ross said when contacted by the Pocono Record on Wednesday afternoon.
At 9 p.m. Wednesday, he sent out a new campus-wide email.
"My statement of July 11, 2012, in regard to renaming Monroe Hall was premature as the (Council of Trustees) has not met and therefore has not taken any action regarding the renaming. If there is public comment at the Sept. 13 meeting relating to the matter or if the council is advised prior to its meeting by anyone, I am sure the council will certainly give such comment due consideration," the new email said.
When asked about the faculty union's concerns over Dillman's alleged involvement in a cover-up, Ross said he was unable to comment on anything involving the Sanders case, and said he was never contacted by faculty members.
He was unsure whether the other trustees had been contacted.
"Anything we would do to name a building after Bob Dillman would be because of his many accomplishments at East Stroudsburg University," Ross added.
Efforts to reach Dillman for comment were not successful.
Most often, when a university decides to change the name of a building, it is a decision tied to a monetary gift, said Rae Goldsmith, vice president of advancement resources with the Council for Advancement and Support of Education, an international association of education institutions based in Washington, D.C.
There are no official guidelines about how a name change should be carried out, however, and the practice varies from institution to institution, she said.
The decision to christen the new Monroe Hall after Dillman is not based on a monetary gift, but his many years of service to the university, Staneski said.
"There are issues where there may be debate about whether it's appropriate to name a building after someone based on whether that name brings credit to the institution, and institutions have to weigh those kinds of decisions," she said. "Do the contributions for whom the building is being named outweigh the questions for whom the building is being named?"
The Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education, which oversees the 14 state-owned universities, including ESU, does not have any guidelines regarding the naming of university buildings.
It's up to each individual university on how to proceed, said PASSHE spokesman Kenn Marshall.
Monroe Hall's $8.5 million renovations were paid for by state money.
Formerly an all-male dormitory, Monroe Hall was extensively renovated during the summer to become the new location of the university's speech pathology and audiology program and speech communication program. Built in the 1940s, it is one of the oldest buildings on campus.

Sure, when it comes to the Lumia 920, Nokia has supplied us with black, glossy white, yellow, red and even the return of cyan. There's also the hard to find matte grey. But what about the more lady friendly magenta? We saw magenta come out for the Lumia 800 and eventually the 900 release but so far, none for the 920.
However, forum member Pontifex has spotted what clearly looks like a highly shiny, glossy magenta Lumia 920. Although it's only spotted at a distance, you can clearly see that curvature and the signature headphone jack of the Lumia 920.
We're not really sure why Nokia doesn't come out with Magenta with the main release of the 920, instead presumably we'll have to wait awhile until they mix up that polycarbonate. But one thing we do know is that color looks to make a comeback should carriers ask for it. Check the video after the break.
