His hard hitting, deep pocket, heavy rock drumming was a mainstay of the 80's LA rock scene, but Frankie Banali the person and the drummer goes much deeper than the grooves he plays with Quiet Riot, W.A.S.P. or any number of bands you may have heard him with. Citing early influences including Ringo and Charlie Watts, Frankie got heavier via the influence of John Bonham, then deeper into technique through the likes of Terry Bozzio and other progressive players. This combination of influences set him up nicely for session work with everyone from Billy Idol (Mony, Mony) and guitar whizz Gary Hoey, to Billy Thorpe, Monarch, and super-duo Glenn Hughes and Pat Thrall on their classic 'Hughes/Thrall' album. "Still today the track 'Hold Out Your Life' is one of the best written and most exciting tracks that I have had the pleasure to be a part of," says Frankie. It's also a great example of Frankie's ability to drive a tune through all its dynamic variations and still make it rock mercilessly. It's what he does with his longtime, band Quiet Riot. Through hits like 'Cum On Feel The Noize' and albums including Metal Health, he has added something more personal than just a big drum sound. He's brought an excitement and degree of integrity to the grooves But then that's Frankie Banali; a great drummer and person who has a deep perspective on music and life and brings a wealth of experience and commitment to every note he plays.

I'll come back to commas next week, but for today, I want to talk about possessives and pronouns.
Jan has already talked about it's and its, so I'll cover the other bugaboos in the same category. I see these errors every single day... it's a HUGE area of misunderstanding and misuse.
The Possessive Case
Personal and relative pronouns form their own possessives WITHOUT THE APOSTROPHE.
Its, yours, theirs, ours, and whose.... DO NOT add an apostrophe. These words already are in the possessive form.
There are NO such words as your's, their's, her's and our's.
The exceptions are it's and who's, but these words are CONTRACTIONS for it is and who is.
So, "The dog licked it's leg" is incorrect.
The girl who's jacket is yellow is a skater is incorrect.
When the possessive words my, our, your, her, his, its, and their modify nouns or GERUNDS, they are called POSSESSIVE ADJECTIVES.
My sewing machine is on the table. (Straightforward.)
I appreciate your picking up the mail for me.
Do NOT say, "I appreciate YOU picking up the mail for me."
Picking is a GERUND, in other words, a NOUN formed from a VERB. So, "your" must be an adjective, not a noun. The verb in the sentence is "appreciate" not "picking" even though it looks like a verb.
Follow this pattern for all gerunds...
I am happy to hear of Sheri's recovering from her accident.
Recovering - gerund.
Sheri's - possessive.
NOT "Sheri recovering."
My being late had no bearing on the outcome.
Being - gerund.
My - possessive.
NOT "Me being late..."
Clear as mud?
Try these... Hopefully, contrived mistakes (and lack of creativity) will help you understand HOW and WHY to use possessive pronouns and nouns properly.
One of my favourite thing's is doing the laundry. Its relaxing to me, and nothing makes me happier than me hanging cloths in the sunshine. My neighbour who's husband is a truck driver says she doesn't have time, so she dries her's in a dryer. I love the way our's smell so fresh, not perfumed like their's. I learned to love laundry from my grandmother. She'd laugh at me swirling the sudsy water with my fingers. Her's were red and raw at days end, with them having so much laundry and she using homemade soap.
(Thirteen errors... one is a spelling error, one I see often, and some are apostrophe errors.)
I will be covering GERUNDS and other VERBALS, but this should be easy enough.

The Jordan L'Style One comes in a new grey/silver colorway. There has been a lot of discussion around the sneaker. We really like the colorway, the soft and light grey is always looking nice on sneakers and the mix with metallic silver works. The perforated side-panel graphics are also nice and subtle. The silhouette coming from a fashion brand would work, but we are just not sure how far Jordan Brand should be going into the lifestyle sector and away from their heritage.
The new colorway of the Jordan L'Style is now available at Mita.

Wildcats Hold Off James Madison, 14-7
Oct. 30, 2010
Courtesy of Villanova Athletics
VILLANOVA, Pa. - In its Homecoming game on Saturday afternoon, No. 6 Villanova (5-2, 3-1 CAA) made two touchdowns in the second quarter stand up for a 14-7 victory over No. 11 James Madison (4-3, 1-3 CAA) at Villanova Stadium to extend its home winning streak to 14 consecutive games.
The last loss at home for the Wildcats was on Homecoming Weekend against the Dukes back in 2008 but on this day the passing of senior quarterback Chris Whitney (Warminster, Pa.) in the first half and a great defensive effort were the deciding factors.
In front of a crowd of 9,217 fans, Whitney went 13-of-17 for 159 yards and two touchdowns in the first half to spot his team a 14-0 lead entering the intermission. The first points of the game didn't come until there was 4:19 left in the second quarter, when Whitney threw an eight-yard touchdown pass to junior wide receiver Norman White (Hammonton, N.J.).
Exactly three minutes later, the Wildcats unfurled the kind of big play that has been prevalent in their offense this season. With 1:19 remaining in the opening half sophomore wide receiver Mikey Reynolds (Moorestown, N.J.) caught a 54-yard touchdown pass to put Villanova ahead by a 14-0 margin.
Defensively, the Wildcats held James Madison scoreless until the Dukes first drive of the second half. It was the fourth time in seven games this season that Villanova allowed zero or one touchdowns to the opposition. Senior linebacker Marquis Kirkland (Syracuse, N.Y.) had a team-high 10 tackles and both he and senior free safety Fred Maldonado (West Chester, Pa.) recorded 2.5 tackles for loss.
Although the Wildcats continued to roll along offensively in the second half - gaining 129 yards - all of that production came on the ground. Whitney attempted just two passes in the entire second half and both were incomplete. He finished the day 13-of-19 through the air. White had a team-high seven receptions for 73 yards and Reynolds finished with 75 receiving yards on three catches.
Villanova finished the game with 209 rushing yards, with senior running backs Angelo Babbaro (Canfield, Ohio) and Aaron Ball (Los Angeles, Calif.) each carrying the ball 13 times and Whitney running 12 times. Babbaro ran for 72 yards and Ball picked up 55 yards to lead the Wildcats ground game.
On the first drive of the second half James Madison drove 73 yards on nine plays, scoring their only points of the game when Kavon Seaton capped the scoring drive with a two-yard run. The majority of the offense for the Dukes came through the air and quarterback Drew Dudzik was 22-of-32 for 213 yards.
In the waning moments of the game, Villanova withstood a final charge by James Madison when junior cornerback James Pitts (Montclair, N.J.) intercepted a pass by Dudzik in the end zone as time expired. The end of the game was starting to look reminiscent of the last trip the Dukes made to Villanova Stadium, when they defeated the Wildcats on a hail mary pass at the end of the game.
A trick play by Villanova helped it keep the first scoring drive of the day going. Facing a fourth-and-nine play from midfield, the Wildcats faked a punt and junior punter Dominic Scarnecchia (Cleveland, Ohio) carried the ball for 23 yards to establish some offensive momentum in what was then still a scoreless game.
NOTES: Villanova is 22-1 in its last 23 home contests, with the only loss in that span being the one to James Madison two years ago on October 25, 2008 ... With 55 rushing yards in today's game, Ball moved into second place in school history with 2,571 career rushing yards ... On the same drive as the fake punt, Whitney threw a 13-yard completion to White on fourth-and-eight to again continue the drive ... Scarnecchia's rush on the fake punt was the first run of his career ... The Wildcats missed two field goals in the game.

Novartis Reports Omalizumab Significantly Improved Chronic Idiopathic Urticaria Symptoms in Patients Who Failed Standard Therapy
- Phase III study published in NEJM today and to be presented tomorrow met primary endpoint in moderate-to-severe chronic idiopathic urticaria (CIU)
- CIU can be a serious, debilitating form of hives; >50% of patients don't achieve symptom relief with approved antihistamine doses
- Omalizumab is a biologic therapy that targets the IgE antibody; further Phase III studies in CIU and regulatory submissions on track for 2013
Feb 24, 2013, 01:17 EST
EAST HANOVER, N.J., Feb. 24, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Late-breaking results from ASTERIA II, a Phase III placebo-controlled study, showed positive results in patients with moderate to severe chronic idiopathic urticaria (CIU), referred to as chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) outside the United States, who remained symptomatic despite treatment with approved antihistamine doses. The data were published today in the New England Journal of Medicine and will be presented tomorrow at the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI) annual meeting in San Antonio, Texas. Omalizumab is not indicated for CIU.
The primary endpoint was measured using a 21-point scale known as a weekly Itch Severity Score (ISS). The study met its primary endpoint, showing that omalizumab given at doses of 150 mg and 300 mg every four weeks led to significant improvement from baseline at Week 12 in the mean weekly ISS from baseline (approximately 14 in all treatment groups) by 8.1 (p=0.001) and 9.8 (p<0.001), respectively, compared to a 5.1 improvement in patients on placebo. The omalizumab 75 mg dose group did not demonstrate statistical significance compared to placebo for the primary endpoint. All eight pre-specified secondary endpoints in the ASTERIA II trial were met for the 150 mg and 300 mg doses, except for the 150 mg dose that did not show a significant difference from placebo in the proportion of angioedema-free days from Week 4 to Week 12 of therapy.
CIU is a distressing skin condition characterized by red, swollen, itchy and sometimes painful hives on the skin, spontaneously presenting and reoccurring for more than six weeks. At any given time, the prevalence of CIU is 0.5% to 1% worldwide. While antihistamines are used first to treat CIU, more than 50% of patients are unable to achieve symptom relief with approved doses.
"These results indicate that omalizumab could potentially be an important addition in the treatment of chronic idiopathic urticaria, a disease that can have a significant impact on patients and can be challenging to manage," said Tim Wright, Global Head of Development, Novartis Pharmaceuticals. "We are committed to helping patients with this disease and look forward to receiving further results from ongoing longer-term clinical trials."
ASTERIA II is the first Phase III data to be presented from a clinical trial program in CIU, which also includes two additional studies investigating the efficacy and safety profile of omalizumab over 24 weeks treatment duration. Novartis regulatory submissions are on track for 2013.
"These results are encouraging news for appropriate patients whose CIU is unresponsive to antihistamines," said study co-lead investigator, Thomas Casale, MD, Chief of Allergy & Immunology at Creighton University Medical Center and Professor of Medicine and Medical Microbiology at Creighton University, Omaha, NE. "New and effective therapeutic strategies for CIU are necessary as treatment options are limited for these patients."
Study Details
ASTERIA II was a global, multi-center, randomized, double-blind study that evaluated the efficacy and safety profile of omalizumab compared to placebo and involved 323 patients aged between 12 and 75 with a diagnosis of moderate to severe CIU for at least six months. Patients were required to have the presence of itch and hives for at least eight consecutive weeks at any time prior to enrollment despite use of approved doses of H1 antihistamine treatment. Patients were randomized to omalizumab 75 mg, 150 mg or 300 mg or placebo, given subcutaneously every four weeks, for a total of three doses within a 12-week treatment period, with a 16-week follow-up period. Patients continued to receive stable doses of their pre-randomization H1 antihistamine. For the primary endpoint, the omalizumab 75 mg dose group did not demonstrate statistical significance compared to placebo. However, omalizumab 150 mg and 300 mg dose groups met the pre-specified primary endpoint and all eight pre-specified secondary endpoints in the ASTERIA II trial, except for the 150 mg dose that did not show a significant difference from placebo in the proportion of angioedema-free days from Week 4 to Week 12 of therapy. Patient response, as measured by the median time to Minimally Important Difference (MID) in itch severity score, a secondary endpoint, occurred at Week 1 (300 mg dose) and Week 2 (150 mg dose), compared to Week 4 in the placebo group.
The incidence and severity of adverse events (AEs) was similar across treatment groups. The most frequently reported treatment-emergent adverse events in patients taking omalizumab (>10% in any omalizumab treatment arm) in the study (including treatment period and follow-up period) were nasopharyngitis (nasal and throat infection or common cold), idiopathic urticaria (hives and itching, trigger unknown) and headache. Five (6.3%) patients experienced serious adverse events (SAEs) in the omalizumab 300 mg dose group, compared to two (2.5%) in the placebo group. In the 150 mg and 75 mg dose groups, one patient experienced SAEs in each group (1.1% and 1.3%, respectively). No deaths were reported during this study.
About Omalizumab
Omalizumab is not indicated for CIU.
Omalizumab is a biologic therapy unique in targeting immunoglobulin E (IgE). Research is ongoing to understand the mechanism of action of omalizumab in CIU and to investigate its potential impact on the drivers of CIU. Omalizumab is approved for the treatment of moderate to severe allergic asthma under the brand-name Xolair® in more than 90 countries, including the US since 2003 and the EU since 2005. In the US, Xolair is indicated for appropriate people who are 12 years of age and older who have moderate to severe persistent allergic asthma caused by year-round allergens in the air and are uncontrolled on inhaled corticosteroids. Xolair helps reduce the number of asthma attacks in people with allergic asthma who still have asthma symptoms even though they are taking inhaled steroids. Xolair should not be used to treat other allergic conditions. Xolair is not a rescue medicine and should not be used to treat sudden asthma attacks. Xolair should not be used in children under 12 years of age.
Omalizumab is being jointly developed by Novartis and Genentech. In the US, Xolair® (omalizumab) for subcutaneous use in appropriate allergic asthma patients is co-promoted by Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation and Genentech.
About Xolair® (omalizumab) for subcutaneous use
Important Safety Information: Appropriate Moderate-Severe Allergic Asthma Patients
Xolair should always be injected in a doctor's office. Patients should read the Medication Guide before starting Xolair treatment and before each and every treatment.
A severe allergic reaction called anaphylaxis has happened in some patients after they received Xolair. Anaphylaxis is a life-threatening condition and can lead to death. Patients must seek emergency medical treatment right away if symptoms occur.
Signs and symptoms of anaphylaxis include:
- wheezing, shortness of breath, cough, chest tightness, or trouble breathing
- low blood pressure, dizziness, fainting, rapid or weak heartbeat, anxiety, or feeling of "impending doom"
- flushing, itching, hives, or feeling warm
- swelling of the throat or tongue, throat tightness, hoarse voice, or trouble swallowing
Anaphylaxis from Xolair can happen:
- right after receiving a Xolair injection or hours later
- after any Xolair injection. Anaphylaxis has occurred after the first Xolair injection or after many Xolair injections.
A patient's healthcare provider should watch the patient for some time in the office for signs or symptoms of anaphylaxis after injecting Xolair. If patients have signs or symptoms of anaphylaxis, they must tell their healthcare provider right away.
Patients must not receive Xolair if they have ever had an allergic reaction to a Xolair injection. Patients should not use Xolair if they are allergic to any of its ingredients.
In clinical studies, a variety of cancer types, including breast, skin, prostate, and parotid (a type of salivary gland), were reported in more patients who received Xolair than in patients who did not receive Xolair.
Xolair is not a rescue medicine and should not be used to treat sudden asthma attacks.
Xolair is not a substitute for the medicines patients are already taking. Patients must not change or stop taking any of their other asthma medicines unless their doctor tells them to do so.
Some patients on Xolair may have an abnormal increase in eosinophils (a type of white blood cell) in the blood or tissues, sometimes causing an inflammation of blood vessels which can lead to rash, worsening of respiratory symptoms, heart trouble, and/or nerve pain and weakness.
Joint inflammation or pain, rash, fever, and swollen lymph nodes have been seen in some patients taking Xolair after the first or subsequent injections. Patients should talk to their doctor if they have experienced any of these signs and symptoms.
In allergic asthma studies, the most commonly seen side effects occurring more frequently in patients receiving Xolair than in patients who received placebo (an injection with no active medicine) were joint pain, pain (general), leg pain, tiredness (fatigue), dizziness, fracture, arm pain, itching, inflammation of the skin, and earache.
In allergic asthma studies, the most common side effects in patients, who either needed to stop Xolair or needed medical attention, were injection site reaction, viral infections, upper respiratory tract infection, sinusitis, headache, and sore throat. These side effects were seen at similar rates in Xolair-treated patients as in patients that did not receive Xolair.
There are other possible side effects with Xolair. Patients should talk to their doctor for more information and if they have any questions about their treatment.
Xolair has not been studied in pregnant women. Pregnant women exposed to Xolair are encouraged to enroll in the Xolair Pregnancy Exposure Registry. Patients can get more information by calling 1-866-4XOLAIR (1-866-496-5247) or by speaking with their doctor.

Virginia Tech 27, North Carolina 17
HANK KURZ Jr.
Oct. 05, 2013
BLACKSBURG, Va. (AP) — Logan Thomas matched his career high with three touchdown passes and Virginia Tech's defense made big plays when it needed to in a 27-17 victory against North Carolina on Saturday.
Thomas' scoring throws all came in the first half as the Hokies (5-1, 2-0 Atlantic Coast Conference) still struggled to get their running game going, but won their fifth straight.
The loss was the third straight for the Tar Heels (1-4, 0-2), who pulled a surprise by starting dual threat Marquise Williams at quarterback in place of Bryn Renner, who injured his left foot last week. Williams played well, and was driving the Tar Heels with a chance to pull them within one possession in the fourth quarter, but on fourth-and-1 from the Virginia Tech 33, he threw deep for tight end Jack Tabb and Kyle Fuller intercepted.
The Tar Heels later also fumbled a punt, leading to the Hokies' final touchdown and rendering Williams' 24-yard scoring pass to Quinshad Davis with 1:09 remaining inconsequential.
Williams, a 6-foot-2, 215-pound sophomore, finished 23 of 35 for 277 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions. He also led the Tar Heels in rushing with 56 yards on 18 attempts.
The first half was all Thomas and receivers Willie Byrn, Demitri Knowles and D.J. Coles. Thomas completed 13 of 20 passes in the half for 230 yards, accounting for most of the Hokies' 277 yards.
Thomas finished 19 for 28 for 293 yards.
Thomas hit Byrn for 17 yards one play before Knowles got free behind the Tar Heels' secondary for a 45-yard touchdown catch to open the scoring. After another punt by North Carolina, the Hokies drove 73 yards in 12 plays capped by Thomas' first of two TD passes to Coles, a 9-yard bullet on third down.
Byrn caught an 18-yard pass on that drive, converting a third-and-10 from the Tar Heels' 27.
North Carolina had gained just 26 yards on 12 plays, but quickly changed that. Williams hit Davis with a short pass that Davis took 40 yards to the Hokies' 35. A 16-yard completion to T.J. Thorpe followed, and Williams later capped the drive with a 6-yard pass to Eric Ebron for the touchdown.
Late in the half, the Tar Heels seemingly had momentum on their side and pinned the Hokies at their 2 yard-line with a punt, but Thomas found Byrn behind the secondary and hit him for an 83-yard play, the third-longest in school history that didn't end in a touchdown. Two plays later, Thomas hit fullback Sam Rogers for 14 yards, and after a false start penalty, he found Coles for a 5-yard touchdown.
The Hokies managed just 64 yards in the second half, but the defense had it covered.

A few years ago, Santa Clara Superior Court Judge Erica Yew '85 appeared on a judicial panel at a Bay Area law school. As speakers went down the row describing their backgrounds, it soon became clear that every single judge on the panel had graduated from UC Hastings.
"We joked to those students, 'It's not too late to transfer.'"
The panel's composition should have come as no surprise, given that historically, UC Hastings has sent more public servants to the California bench than any other law school. With so many alumni in the state judiciary, UC Hastings' commitment to both public service and diversity profoundly influences the lives of California's citizens.
According to Lila Mirrashidi '09, who served as deputy appointments secretary under Gov. Jerry Brown, UC Hastings graduates "highly qualified attorneys who go on to do great things for California. The student body is incredibly diverse, producing a great pool of candidates from the bench, which ideally should reflect the diversity of the state.
San Diego County Superior Court Judge Sharon Majors-Lewis, who served as judicial appointments secretary under Gov. Schwarzenegger, adds that UC Hastings enjoys "a well-deserved reputation for being one of the best law schools in the national because of its extraordinary teachers and scholars. Its diverse and accomplished alumni include many highly respected jurists and attorneys." While Majors-Lewis notes that an applicant's law school is not considered in the appointment process, she adds, "It's not surprising to learn that UC Hastings' wonderfully diverse alums make up a significant part of the California judiciary."
For Yew, being a student at UC Hastings, which is a particularly large and competitive law school, meant that "you had to be a scrapper" to succeed. Not surprisingly, resourcefulness also happens to be an especially useful quality for judges, says Yew, who also serves on the Judicial Council and the Commission on Judicial Performance. "In trial, for example, you have to respond in real time to objections and questions."
While a UC Hastings diploma certainly doesn't guarantee a judgeship, "anecdotally, there is evidence" of a connection, notes Justice Nathan Mihara '75 of the Sixth District Court of Appeal, who appeared alongside Yew on the panel. "To me, UC Hastings was the ideal setting for acquiring a great legal education. It's uniquely situated in the heart of city, state, and federal government. Students don't have to go too far to see a state criminal trial, watch a bankruptcy proceeding or observe a racketeering trial in federal court. Plus, all varieties of practice are nearby in the financial district. It's a vibrant, exciting petri dish for the development of young law students."
UC Hastings' setting also exposes students to the human experience. "You have very wealthy, powerful international corporations, but just around the corner, there is extreme poverty, homeless in need of social services, and a large immigrant population. It was a real eye-opener," Mihara says. "Exposure to all of those experiences enables a judge to handle a variety of situations, from self-represented people who can't afford lawyers, to huge corporate lawsuits, to family law and juvenile cases. UC Hastings is a great launching pad for understanding those issues."
Majors-Lewis similarly notes the school's relative proximity to Sacramento, "a seat of power," where the government and other political power players are. She speculates that being the UC system's first law school, UC Hastings has a distinguished "history and legacy" for sending its graduates to the bench.
For Mihara, the old adage "a campus is comprised of buildings, but a school is about the people," he says, "is very true of UC Hastings. My interpersonal connections were strong." Even today, whenever he encounters a judicial colleague who is also a fellow UC Hastings graduate, there's an "immediate tie. We can share war stories."
UC Hastings' commitment to pro bono work and public service are "heavily ingrained" in the institution, and therefore in its alumni, says Mark Schickman, past president of the Bar Association of San Francisco, who now serves on the American Bar Association's Board of Governors. As a result, "Some of the most distinguished judges on the bench are UC Hastings alumni," Schickman says. "In terms of practicing in and being on the bench in Northern California, there's no better degree than one from UC Hastings."

If there is structure in the residuals, it suggests that simple linear regression is not appropriate:

Safeguard measures restrict imports of a product temporarily if a domestic industry is seriously injured or threatened with serious injury caused by a surge in imports. The Agreement on Safeguards (
nike roshe sale uk clothes TmGIJkW3
) establishes rules for the application of safeguard measures by Member governments, as provided in Article XIX of GATT 1994. Effective safeguard rules are important to the viability and integrity of the multilateral trading system.
The availability of a safeguard mechanism gives WTO Members the assurance that they can act quickly to help industries adjust to import surges, providing them with flexibility they would not otherwise have to open their markets to international competition. At the same time, WTO safeguard rules ensure that such actions are of limited duration and are gradually less restrictive over time. Under certain circumstances, compensation is also authorized.
The Committee on Safeguards (the Safeguards Committee) was established to administer the Safeguards Agreement. It oversees the operation of the Agreement and is responsible for the surveillance of Members' commitments. Governments have to notify and provide copies of their legislation authorizing the application of safeguard measures to the Committee, as well as report each phase of a safeguard investigation and related decision-making. The Committee reviews these reports and provides a forum for discussion of measures in place.
The Safeguards Agreement incorporates into WTO rules many of the concepts embodied in U.S. safeguards law (section 201 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended).
Among its key provisions, the Safeguards Agreement:
Requires a transparent, public process for making serious injury determinations;
Sets out clearer definitions of the criteria for serious injury determinations;
Requires that safeguard measures be steadily liberalized over their duration;
Establishes maximum periods for safeguard actions;
Requires a review no later than the mid-term of any measure with a duration exceeding three years;
Allows safeguard actions to be taken for three years, without the requirement of compensation or the possibility of retaliation; and
Prohibits so-called "grey area" measures, such as voluntary restraint agreements and orderly marketing agreements.
In the United States, the U.S. International Trade Commission conducts safeguard investigations.

Decide on priorities
Your aim is to save some money for the school by making good decisions about ICT. It'll be important to show how that can be done. So it's time to decide where to start.
One imperative, and it's more to do with management than technology, is to weigh the balance between going for quick immediate results on the one hand, and laying the foundations for longer term efficiency and savings on the other. A good example of playing the longer game is found in our Microsoft® Case Study of West Hatch High School.
It begins with the governors agreeing, in 2008, to commence a six year ICT transformation project starting with a complete rebuild of the network infrastructure. That, clearly, tells of vision, leadership and long term commitment. Four years on, with no sign of stopping, story after story now comes from West Hatch of the effects on learning, efficiency and, yes, cost-saving, of that early decisiveness.
Sometimes, though, it's necessary to demonstrate a quicker impact on the budget, and another story, from Islay High School, http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ukschools/archive/2010/10/21/reducing-the-school-printingbudget-by-two-thirds.aspx tells of a drive on paper saving – "No printed handouts or memos" – that cut paper and printing by an astonishing eighty percent from 2006 to 2007. Money saved was spent on student and staff netbooks.
Clearly, we can't tell you what your priorities ought to be. There's something to be said for a quick demonstration of what's possible, but it's more than likely that the long haul has to start in the background, too. It's the planning that's important, with a transparent whole-school collaborative approach and a strong steer from leadership.
Green, lean and far from mean
Trying for cost savings almost by definition addresses the increasingly important 'Green'agenda along the way. The main contributor here is a reduction in the use of electricity, but there are savings to be made, too, in the use of paper and the consumables involved in printing and copying. Reducing the amount of hardware in the school, and extending its life also help make a positive environmental contribution.
Many schools are highly active in seeking to reduce their impact on the environment, signed up in many cases to organisations such as 'Eco-Schools'
Where this is the case, the drive for cost saving will both support and be informed by those responsible for the environmental effort, and there's much to be gained from working together to ensure that nothing's missed on either side.
To help your school further with cost saving, we have partnered with the Guardian to make our new 'Cost Saving in Education' eBook exclusively available within their Teacher Network until the end of September 2012. The eBook can be viewed/downloaded directly via the Guardian's Teacher Network download centre.

An asteroid the size of a city block discovered by astronomers in Canberra will zoom past Earth but poses no risk of a collision. The "unusually large" asteroid will not be visible to the naked eye but asteroid enthusiasts may watch it pass by during a live online broadcast, said Patrick Paolucci, president of the skywatchers' site, Slooh. NASA has already catalogued 9000 such Near-Earth Objects, but astronomers are always on the lookout for new ones. Advertisement: Story continues below "Once in awhile one will come out of nowhere like this one, which is actually pretty big," Paolucci told AFP. "We were like, 'Wow, we should track this one."' The asteroid, named 2012 LZ1, is thought to be about 500 metres wide, and is expected to pass within 14 times the Moon's distance from the Earth. The massive object was discovered just days ago by Scottish-Australian astronomer Rob McNaught and colleagues at the Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics of the Australian National University. The asteroid qualifies as a Near-Earth Object because of its size and proximity - more than 152 metres wide and within a distance of 7.5 million kilometres from Earth. Paolucci said the asteroid's fly-by would be covered in real-time with footage from an observatory in the Canary Islands at Slooh.com beginning at 10am (AEST) on Friday. Read more: www.smh.com.au...

Late OT - Duke vs. Clemson
First off, I apologize - this is coming 2 days too late...and many no longer care (if they cared to begin with) due to Lewan Muppets. Work has been extremely busy and we had a basketball game last night.
With that said, I got to visit Cameron Indoor Stadium for the first time a couple days ago and wanted to share my thoughts on Duke after seeing them live. I was fortunate enough to see Michigan live in the Barclays Arena vs. West Virginia earlier this year.
Before I begin - yes, Cameron is everything you've heard...this isn't a brag post. It's a dump, it's awesome, there's history and lots of banners. The greatest high school experience ever.
Now to the game - it was awful...for those that watched. I'm sorry, it was painful. It was 2-0 Clemson at the first media timeout and Duke didn't score a point until 14:58 in the first half.
Nonetheless, with no rooting interest in the game I took to scouting Duke vs. what I've seen Michigan do this season.
Disclaimer - Ryan Kelly didn't return for the 2nd half of this game and he's not listed as "out indefinitely"...if he's out, this post his moot, Michigan is the better team.
Assuming Kelly would return before or during the NCAA Tournament, I'd say Michigan matches up quite well vs. the Blue Devils.
The biggest thing Duke has most teams don't is size at the forward positions. Those guys are long and can really defend. Inside at center Plumlee is a man, however he struggled vs. Booker who looked like a watered down version of Jordan Morgan.
At guard, they have Duke guards...nothing new. Guys who can knock down a timely 3, who play solid defense and are smart players.
However, from what I saw (and I'm giving them the benefits of the doubt that this was just a bad game...we'll have one too, hell, it may have been Nebraska, I haven't see that game yet) Duke is vulnerable. In a one game situation, they can beat anyone, but in a best of 7...I'd take Michigan in an easy 6.
Duke would be able to guard Michigan better than anyone, but we'd be able to guard Duke as well. We have the advantage at just about every position and Morgan would hold his own vs. Plumlee...not sure if anyone else on the team could.
The X factor in my mind is Mitch McGary. He matches Duke's effort - even surpasses it and that takes away a HUGE advantage they have. McGary would be a MAN vs. Duke, they literally have no one inside to rebound against him. It would be Hansborough-esqe (12 points, 14 rebs).
At point guard, Cook is nice...I think he'd be a good matchup for Burke, but again, Burke is just better - period.
In watching both teams, my only worry would be Stauskas defensively. He tends to help too far off his man and he'd probably get Stauskas'd a couple times because Duke finds that kick-out spot in the corner just as good as Nik does.
In the end, taking the bad game into the equation, Michigan is the #1 team in the nation right now. Duke's very good, they've been some great teams...but talent and execution wise, Michigan is #1. If/when we beat Ohio...I'd have no issue with voters agreeing and bumping Michigan up.

A wonderful film...magical and just beautiful!
San Francisco, California (PRWEB) January 22, 2013
Golden Gate Artist Films is proud to present the San Francisco Premiere of the independent art house film Playground Of Dreams at the historic "Balboa Theater" located at: 3630 Balboa Street in San Francisco on Thursday, February 7th, 2013 at 7:30 PM. The special screening is to celebrate the DVD and Digital Download release of the film.
"Playground of Dreams" is a story about a doctor who finds a mysterious book of matches that leads him to an underground tavern off of Angel Island in San Francisco. There he meets a painter, a poet and a dancer who slowly help him unravel the intricate webbing of his past. A past that follows the life of a traumatized young child who is unable to speak and whose only form of communication is through the music he is taught to play. Playground Of Dreams is a labyrinth of poetry and images which travels between two worlds... the past and the present, the linear and the spiral, the logical and the inspirational.
"Playground of Dreams" which opened the film season at "TheForest Theater" in Carmel- By- The Sea, CA (followed by such films as "War Horse" and "Hugo"), as well as the fall season at "The Anthology Film Archives" in New York City, has garnered rave reviews from audiences.
Writer/Director Shireen Daryadel is thrilled to be able to screen the film in her native San Francisco. "There is such a rich pool of talent here in the San Francisco Bay Area, we feel honored to be able to showcase their art in our film and to be able to support our local independent theaters and film community."
Many of the local actors, dancers and composers featured in the film will also be present at the screening.
DVD's and Digital Downloads of the film will be available on the evening of the San Francisco Premiere at: http://www.playgroundofdreams.com.

2007 Baseball
Head Coach James Grandey
Contact information for Coach Grandey
Office phone: 419-358-3292
|Following a 2006 season that saw the Bluffton University baseball team set numerous offensive records and narrowly miss qualifying for the HCAC post-season tournament, fourth year head coach James Grandey is confident that the Beavers are moving in the right direction. "We have worked extremely hard as a program during the past three years," explained Coach Grandey. "We have a strong foundation for the future. Through continued hard work and improvement, we will be able to take the next step."
|In Grandey's third year at the helm, the Beavers won 17 games, only one off the school
record of 18 which was last accomplished in 1988.
Grandey's first three seasons have been full of highs and lows as the team has created a reputation as one of the HCAC's top offensive teams. His squads have broken school single season records in hits, doubles, home runs, total bases and runs.
Grandey looks forward to the future as his team hopes to improve yet again this season.
Grandey earned a bachelor and master's degree from Muskingum College in 1999 and 2002, respectively, and was a standout student-athlete while playing for the Muskies. As a senior, he earned first team All-Ohio Athletic Conference honors in both football and baseball and was named first team All-Mideast Region in baseball, as well. Grandey's academic career was just as impressive, as he earned Academic All-OAC honors as a sophomore, junior and senior and was named first team CoSIDA Academic All-American in baseball as a senior.
|Grandey and his wife Jessica, who is head women's tennis coach and assistant women's basketball coach at Bluffton, reside in Bluffton.
Assistant Coach Todd Miller
Todd Miller is entering his first season as the graduate assistant coach for the Bluffton University baseball team. A native of Franklin, Indiana, Miller graduated from Franklin Community High School in 2002. At Franklin he played football, basketball, and baseball, earning honors in each.
Following high school, he attended Hanover College, where he graduated with a degree in communication in the spring of 2006. While at Hanover, he played both football and baseball. A four-year varsity member and three-year starter, Miller earned All-Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference honors in football. Miller was also a three-year starter for the Panthers at third base, earning All-HCAC honors on the diamond for three seasons. As a team captain, he was named MVP following his senior year.
Along with his coaching duties, Miller is taking classes in pursuit of a master's in business administration. Miller currently resides in Bluffton.

Boffins receive quantum key from moving plane
Alice and Bob play catch
A group of German researchers has taken a step closer to achieving quantum key distribution with satellites, receiving quantum keys transmitted by a moving airplane.
The experiment is described in this paper (PDF) presented to the QCrypt conference in Singapore last week.
Led by Sebastian Nauerth at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, the researchers achieved a stable connection over 20 Km for ten minutes, and in that time achieved a key rate of 145 bits/s. While that's far too slow for a data channel, this only refers to the rate at which the keys are transmitted.
However, if the system were to be made secure against eavesdropping, the authors note, the key exchange rate would fall to 5 bits/second.
The experiment was conducted just after sunset at Munich's Oberpfaenhofen airport to avoid errors that could be introduced by sunlight. The researchers also had to create a mechanism of moving mirrors to compensate for the movement of the aircraft.
The qubits were encoded on the polarization of the beam transmitted from the aircraft (Alice) to the ground (Bob).
The kit the researchers used included a free-space laser terminal developed by the German Aerospace Centre (DLR), modified to implement the QKD transmitter communicating with a ground-based receiver on a DLR building. ®
