New polls suggest positive signs for Romney
Updated: 4:38 p.m. ET
On the heels of his victory in last week's presidential debate, three new polls show some good news for Mitt Romney, though the lasting impact of his performance last week has yet to be determined.
A new poll from the Pew Research Center shows a big boost for Romney, who now leads Mr. Obama 49 percent to 45 percent among likely voters in that survey. Last month, Romney trailed the president by eight points among likely voters in the same survey.
Among registered voters, the poll shows Romney now even with Obama, with 46 percent for each candidate, despite tailing the president by 9 percent last month.
According to a recent Gallup's tracking poll, Romney scored a decisive - and historic - win over President Obama in the duo's one-on-one debate, with 72 percent of viewers ranking Romney as the victor and only 20 percent saying the same of Mr. Obama. Gallup says that 52-point disparity is the largest the survey has ever measured on that question.
Even Democratic viewers were seemingly reluctant to rank the president as the debate's winner: 49 percent said Romney won the debate, and 39 percent said Mr. Obama did. Republicans and independents overwhelmingly selected Romney as the winner.
Perhaps in part thanks to his victory, Romney saw a five-point bump in the Gallup survey matching up the two presidential candidates. Before the debate, from September 30-October 2, the president led Romney 50 percent to 45 percent; after the debate, from October 4-6, the two were even with 47 percent support.
But the more recent Gallup tracking poll -- which surveyed voters between October 5-7 -- showed the president up by five points once again, suggesting that Romney's post-debate bump might have been short-lived.
A new battleground tracking poll from Politico/George Washington University, meanwhile, suggests that Democrats have to worry about a recent enthusiasm dip.
According to the survey, conducted last week, 73 percent of people who support Mr. Obama call themselves "extremely likely" to vote, while 86 percent of people who support Romney say the same thing.
Similarly, 76 percent of Democrats say they're extremely likely to vote, and 84 percent of Republicans say that.
Among extremely likely voters, Romney's support has climbed since last week, when the president led him 50 percent to 47 percent. The Politico/GWU survey released Monday showed Romney up 52 percent to 46 percent. And 82 percent of white voters, who break for Romney, say they're "extremely likely" to vote, while among Latinos and African-Americans, who overwhelmingly support Mr. Obama, only 70 and 71 percent respectively classify themselves as extremely likely to vote.
Concerns about Democratic enthusiasm have been at play for months, but Mr. Obama had seen a boost in that enthusiasm following the Democratic National Convention.
The same Politico poll shows the two candidates neck-and-neck nationally, with Mr. Obama and Romney statistically tied: 49 percent for Obama versus Romney's 48 percent. According to Politico, that's a point closer than it was last week.

- Welterweight
Pacquiao offered Dubai opportunity
Interest around Manny Pacquiao's ring return is gathering pace following an unofficial offer of $10 million to fight in Dubai in April.
The Filipino's trainer Freddie Roach believes the location would be ideal for his man but insisted that it was promoter Bob Arum who will ultimately decide.
Arum has said the 34-year-old welterweight is not looking at a return on American soil because of the high rate of tax on fight purses.
Pacquiao is currently banned from fighting in Las Vegas following his brutal knockout by Juan Manuel Marquez in December. His collapse in the sixth round, after a vicious right from the Mexican, led to the Nevada Boxing Commission suspending his licence for 120 days.
But a warm-up fight away from the US, ahead of a potential re-match with Marquez in late summer, is a possibility. Singapore and Manila have both been voiced as potential cities to host the fight and Roach says Dubai should rank alongside them.
"I got a phone call from someone in Dubai on Monday, who offered $10 million for Manny to fight there in April," Roach told Sport360.
"A place like Dubai for a fight could be great. It's a great location for pay-per-view and TV networks and it would be seen worldwide. There would definitely be a lot of interest for a fight to take place there so it has the potential to be a great event.
"But I told him to call Bob Arum because I don't make his fights; I just get him ready."

Scout advancement
From MeritBadgeDotOrg
(split out key sections)
m (Boy Scouting advancement moved to Boy Scout Advancement: Splitting Advancement and Ranks into two pages. WIll take 3 steps)
Revision as of 16:47, May 21, 2008
|A detailed summary of the 2008 Boy Scout Requirement Changes are now on MeritBadgeDotOrg, including updated links for recently changed Eagle Scout Award-related forms. (Once announced, BSA Rank changes become effective immediately.)
- For advancement information on all four scouting program phases (including Boy Scouting), see Advancement.
- For rank requirements for only Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts and Sea Scouts, see Ranks.
Advancement for Boy Scouts (11 years and older and younger than 18) and who have received the Scout badge, follow a linear trail of ranks: Tenderfoot, Second Class, First Class, Star Scout, and Life Scout ranks, and concludes with the Eagle Scout Award.
After earning the Eagle Scout Award, a Scout still has the opportunity for advancement recognition by earning Eagle Palms.
Boy Scouting advancement
The Boy Scout advancement program is divided into three main areas. The first and primary advancement area is a series of Ranks that the Scout progresses through known as the Eagle Scout trail. The rank system occurs in two distinctly different phases.
After earning the Scout badge (which is simply the way boys join Boy Scouts, not a rank), boys work on the Tenderfoot, Second Class, and First Class ranks. During this phase, all three ranks may be worked on at the same time. These ranks focus on Scouting skills - the outdoors, physical fitness, citizenship, patrol/troop participation, and personal development. After completing these ranks, a Scout should be adept at participating in all of the activities in the Boy Scout program, literally a First Class Scout.
During the second phase, Scouts work on the Star Scout, Life Scout, and Eagle Scout ranks. These ranks are worked on one at a time and must be earned in order. Here the focus of advancement switches from Scouting skills to personal development and community service. Merit badges are an integral part of this part or rank advancement.
After earning the Eagle Scout Award, a Scout still has the opportunity for advancement recognition by earning Eagle Palms.
Completion of requirements for advancement along the Eagle trail may be earned at any time, but ranks and palms are received in sequence and according to time and leadership requirements.

Though this timeless image of Ms. Moss from 1996 could have been created with a 2 light setup, Irving shot it using only natural light from a large skylight in his studio.
*Thanks to Nico Silberfaden for suggesting this image.
Camera: Rolleiflex 2.8f twin lens reflex camera with Kodak Tri-X 400 film, set on a tripod 8 feet back from the model. Shot at 1/60, f2.8, ISO 160 (pulled 1.5 stops).
Lighting: A large, overhead skylight lets the graciously-soft northern light pour down at f2.8 toward camera right. This leaves some of Kate in shadow and the right side of the background nicely lit.
Comments: Even approaching 80, Irving was a constant trickster. He would only speak to Kate in a cockney accent and kept referring to himself as Avedon. Tea was served at noon, tequila shots at 2:30, cigarettes continually.

The U.S. economy is a highly complex, multifaceted mechanism. Accordingly, it is extremely difficult to predict. It is so difficult, in fact, that economists have been the subjects of numerous jokes over the years. Economic predictions are frequently unreliable, despite the fact that many economists prognosticate with great confidence.
Economists routinely sift through mountains of data to determine their forecast. Recently, I spoke with Richard Yamarone, an economist with Bloomberg who, earlier this year, was perhaps the first to proclaim that another recession was on the horizon. Yamarone's contention is that a recession in the United States is a certainty by year-end. Part of his reasoning is that since 1948, whenever real GDP fell below 2% on a year-over-year basis, the economy ultimately slipped into recession. With America still reeling from the Great Recession of 2008, perhaps Yamarone has a case.
Politically, a double-dip could send many Washington incumbents packing. Economically, a double-dip would translate into higher unemployment and could introduce the potential for a Japanese-style deflationary scenario. At least that's what the Fed was claiming last year when we stood at this same precipice.
The Business Cycle: A Primer
When the economy expands, unemployment falls as businesses hire to meet the growing demand. At some point, and for a variety of reasons, demand ultimately slows and the economy begins to contract.
As the economy contracts, unemployment rises, GDP falls and eventually we reach the bottom of the cycle. Expansion and contraction may last for as little as a few months or up to several years. In fact, between 1854 and 2009, the shortest U.S. expansion lasted 10 months while the shortest contraction was six months. The longest expansion was 120 months and the longest contraction was 65 months. Since WWII, the average economic expansion has lasted 42 months and the average contraction 16 months.
There is a strong psychological component to the business cycle as it is subject to the whims of the individual. Furthermore, it is influenced by world economies. In effect, when individuals feel bad about the economy they tend to delay major purchases. To the contrary, when times are good, people spend more. Both of these can be self-perpetuating, which is part of the reason why the business cycle pendulum has wide swings in both directions. Therefore, maintaining a steady economy is more ideological than obtainable. Ideally, if all major purchases could somehow be made with consistency and regularity, the business cycle would be rather flat. However, due to human emotions, government involvement, military conflicts, weather, etc., this is unrealistic. Hence, the gyrations of the business cycle remain.
The Business Cycle: Antagonists
As previously mentioned, the business cycle is influenced by a number of factors, notwithstanding government policies. Prior to FDR, the U.S. government assumed a much more hands-off approach. For example, when the banking crisis of 1907 hit, the private sector, namely J. Pierpont Morgan, stepped in to rescue the economy. However, by the time the Great Depression arrived, Morgan was no longer around. There was also a concern that too much power had been vested in one individual. Therefore, in response to a strong public outcry, government was compelled to act. America was searching for answers and in the early 1930s, noted British economist John Maynard Keynes provided them. Keynes believed that during slow economic times, the government should step in and employ the unemployed. FDR welcomed this idea with open arms as evidenced by his "New Deal" economic plan. Since then, government involvement in economic affairs has been the rule rather than the exception.
It is in the darkest of times that politicians find their greatest opportunity. In fact, it was Otto von Bismarck who in the late 1800s postulated, "A man who has a pension for his old age is much easier to deal with than a man without that prospect." He went on to say, "Whoever embraces this idea will come to power." Need I say more?
The business cycle ebbs and flows based on GDP. Gross domestic product is the primary measure of the economy and is defined as the "total market value of all goods and services produced." Moreover, it is comprised of four distinct, but interrelated parts. They are: consumer spending, industry spending, government spending and net exports. You might think of it as: C + I + G + Ex. The sum of these parts is the key metric for measuring our economy.
Unemployment Rate: The Fallacy Behind the Figures
The unemployment rate is measured by the Bureau of Labor Statistics and is published on a monthly basis. At the time of this writing, the rate was 9.1%. The unemployment rate has been higher than 8.8% for 28 months since April 2009.
There are actually two unemployment rates: the "official" rate and the "unofficial" rate. The official rate is the rate quoted most often by the media. The unofficial rate attempts to include those individuals who have stopped looking for employment. Obviously, this number cannot be accurately determined, but suffice it to say that the unofficial rate is always higher than the official rate. The divergence between the two may also increase as the economy worsens and people become more discouraged.
A healthy economy is heavily reliant on the labor market. Clearly, the more individuals who are employed, the greater the output will be. Therefore, putting people back to work is perhaps the single most important economic issue today. Until we reduce the unemployment rate, robust economic growth is unlikely.
Recession Defined
A recession is generally defined as a prolonged downturn in economic activity as measured by GDP. The National Bureau of Economic Research in Cambridge, Mass., is widely held to be the organization that establishes the inflection points in the economic cycle. Moreover, the determination of these inflection points is always made months after the fact as economic data is compiled, revised and revised again.
When recessions occur, it is because of a slowdown in economic activity. Yamarone of Bloomberg equates this to someone riding a bicycle. "If you peddle too slowly, the bike will tip over," he says.
No two recessions are exactly alike. Although they share many similarities, they differ in terms of severity and duration. The magnitude of a recession is also influenced by the degree of the prior expansion. For example, the 2008 Great Recession followed the greatest credit bubble of all time. In fact, the bursting of the bubble was so severe that we lost over eight million jobs and are still more than six million jobs short of fully recovering.
Employment and Recessions
As economic activity slows, businesses begin to reduce their labor force in order to remain profitable. This decline may be sparked by a decrease in consumer spending, which comprises about two-thirds of GDP. As demand slows, layoffs increase and the unemployment rate rises. As the unemployment rate rises, there are fewer wage earners to support the economy and spending falls. As spending falls, businesses reduce their labor force and the self-perpetuation begins. Before the economy can recover, confidence must be restored.
Fiscal and Monetary Policy
Monetary policy is determined by the Federal Reserve which was established in 1913. The Fed has a dual mandate: full employment and stable prices. Their tools include raising and lowering interest rates; expanding and contracting the money supply; and raising and lowering bank reserve requirements. At this point in our economy, rates are as low as they can go, the money supply has ballooned to record levels and bank reserve requirements are also very low. In essence, there isn't much else the Fed can do to stimulate economic growth. Where is all this excess money? Much of it is sitting at the Federal Reserve banks and the commercial banks. Why isn't the consumer borrowing more? Bank lending standards are extremely tight and consumers have too much debt, therefore, lending activity is muted. Even though money is very cheap these days, throwing more of it into the system may not motivate the consumer to resume their pre-recession spending habits.
Last year, the Fed tried to stimulate consumer spending with QE2, but had little success. In my view, QE2 was a game of cat and mouse with confidence as the cheese. However, the consumer didn't take the bait. Ironically, higher prices have suppressed economic growth. The real problem here is that individuals are still overleveraged and consumer confidence is low.
Fiscal policy has two main components: government expenditures and tax policy. We have had massive overspending for a number of years. When we hear discussions about raising taxes because government needs the revenue, the clear signal is that government is more important than the American economy. If government cannot operate on $2.2 trillion annually, then we have a much bigger problem.
U.S. Recessions
The table includes data for each U.S. recession since 1929. As a baseline, since Oct. 1, 1928, there have been slightly more positive days in the stock market than negative ones (52% compared with 48%). Moreover, the average daily gain (0.74%) and loss percentages (-0.76%) are nearly identical. Normally, stocks decline during the early stage of a recession and begin to advance before the recession ends. However, in the recession of 1945, stocks trended higher as they did during the recession of 1953. Also, in the recession of late 1948, stocks rebounded to their pre-recession level by the time it ended. Other than these few exceptions, stocks have not performed well during these economic downturns.
Where Do We Go From Here?
Over the past few years, government has been trying to "push the string uphill" by addressing the demand side of the equation through the expansion of the money supply. Historically, this along with a lower cost of borrowing has helped to stimulate economic expansion. However, the consumer hasn't yet taken the bait to any significant degree. What can government do to aid our ailing economy and what has been done?
Congress has extended the "Bush" tax cuts and temporarily reduced the Social Security withholding tax, but much of the talk in Washington has been about finding alternate sources of revenue. Again, I think they should be able to function on $2 trillion per year, don't you?
There's really nothing more that the Fed can do; it's up to Congress and the president to act. It's time to put more money into the hands of the consumer. After paying down debt and building up their savings, consumers will do what they do well—spend. This may cause a short-term rise in our debt, but eventually, when the consumer gets back into the game, the economy will grow and we'll escape this mess.

But sometimes the deck gets stacked a little higher before the opening tip-off.
Saturday afternoon at Anderson Arena in Bowling Green, Ohio, the Bowling Green State women's basketball team received their conference championship rings and hung their banners celebrating their fourth consecutive MAC championship. It was the home opener, so excitement was high.
Add in the fact that Bowling Green State had opened the season with two losses for the first time in 12 years and the mountain was virtually insurmountable.
That was the situation the Lipscomb Lady Bisons faced. Despite a close first half, the Lady Bisons fell 71-52.
At 16:41 of the first half the Lady Bisons took their only lead in the game, 9-7, when center Katie Rollins connected on a layup. There would be three ties in the first half, but the Lady Bisons went into the dressing room at halftime trailing 31-24.
Bowling Green State started to open up their lead in the second half. They went on a 12-0 run from 8:12 to 3:16 that helped extend their lead to a game-high 21 points.
Rollins and guard Jenna Bartsokas each scored 13 points to lead the Lady Bisons. Forward Cree Nix led the Lady Bisons with nine rebounds.
The Lady Bisons shot 37.7 percent from the field, hitting 20 of 53 attempts.
Bowling Green State placed four players in double figures in scoring, all starters.
Forward Lauren Prochaska posted a double-double with 15 points and a game-high 10 rebounds.
Forward Niki McCoy was the top scorer with a game-high 20 points. Center Tara Breske added 12 and guard Tracy Pontious finished with 10.
Bowling Green State shot 41.7 percent from the field, hitting 25 of 60 shots.
Bowling Green State also held a 39-32 edge on the boards.
The Lady Bisons, 1-3, are back home at Allen Arena Monday night at 7 to play Samford.

The Americans were beaten 3-1 by Poland, allowing two goals in the first five minutes. But when South Korea edged Portugal 1-0 to win Group D, it also sent the Americans into the second round as the group runner-up.
The United States will now play Mexico on Monday at Jeonju; the Koreans face Italy on Tuesday at Daejeon.
U.S. captain Claudio Reyna said, "This wasnt the way we wanted to do it, but well take it.
I was disappointed in how the team played tonight, but I am happy we went through, said coach Bruce Arena. I thought we played very well in parts. Our guys never quit.
It was a miserable night for the Americans. Along with the defensive errors, the United States couldnt buy a goal, with Clint Mathis and Brian McBride coming loose but not getting enough of the ball to make a difference.
And the two goals, from Emmanuel Olisadebe and Pawel Kryszalowicz, were partially the fault of Jeff Agoos, the snake-bit defender who has been involved in every goal conceded by the Yanks in the tournament. The humiliated Agoos was finally pulled in the 36th minute for speedy winger DaMarcus Beasley. But by then the damage had been done. For the rest of the match, the Polish team defused the American attack.
The Poles chose to rest six starters, including goalkeeper Jerzy Dudek, who had promised Korea that his team would try to give them a gift. Dudek had conceded six goals in the Polish campaign. Apparently that move by coach Jerzy Engel was the spark they needed.
Olisadebe struck first for the Poles in the third minute when he converted a corner from Jacek Krzynowek. Olisadebe artfully moved the ball to Brad Friedel after leaving Agoos on the ground and collected the rebound off John OBrien to earn the Poles their first goal of the tournament.
But Landon Donovan pulled one back a second later when keeper Radoslaw Madjan couldnt hold Brian McBrides searching ball after the ensuing kickoff and Donovan headed it home. Yet he was ruled to have fouled Kryszalowicz in the box -- Kryszalowicz actually just fell down -- so the Chinese referee, Lu Jun, waved off the score.
On the restart, Krzynowek collected Madjans long ball and fed it through the legs of Eddie Pope to allow Kryszalowicz to score on a half-volley in the fifth. Once again, Agoos was the beaten man and the Poles were up 2-0. The Americans kept advancing. Mathis and McBride just did not mesh up top, and the counters that resulted when Olisadebe ran right at Agoos were difficult for the Americans to handle.
In minute 30, the Poles had a chance to make it 3-0 when Krzynowek beat Eddie Pope on the left flank and put a shot right on goal that Friedel did well to save. But the rebound fell to Maciej Zurawski who had a wide-open net. Fortunately for the Americans, the ball rocked off the post and through Friedel, and Olisadebes attempt to serve it back hit the side nets.
The Poles added the icing in the 66th minute when sub Marcin Zewlakow slammed home a header that cleanly beat Earnest Stewart. Tony Sanneh would trip up Kryszalowicz in the box in the 76th for a penalty call, but Friedel made his second big save of the games when he stonewalled Marek Kozminski. Donovans 85th-minute strike got at least some pride back on the board, but it was too little, too late.

In 1860 Samuel & Caroline Ludbrook purchased 2000 acres of Taiamai to become the first white settlers in Ohaeawai. Known as Tupe Tupe the land was part of the original Henry Williams estate.
Formed by volcanic eruptions the Taiamai plain, ringed by extinct volcanoes each featuring ancient pa-sites, was a rich and fertile garden for pre-European Maori. Te Morunga, an important Maori chief built and occupied Rua Hoanga pa still clearly seen today.
Developed as a dairying unit Tupe Tupe a 474 hectare beef and sheep farm uses modern farm practices and is managed by fifth generation Roger Ludbrook and family. Conservation plans to protect the waterways and wetlands and preserve the rich heritage of the Taiamai garden is underway.

A "reckless" driver caught driving at 150mph while four young children travelled in the car without seatbelts has been jailed and banned from the road for three years.
Keith Millard, of Blakewell Road, Berwick-upon-Tweed, was spotted driving a black Mercedes 320 down the A1 near Peterborough by officers carrying out a speed check.
Police followed the car to the nearby A14 where it slowed to about 90mph due to heavy traffic, allowing them to catch up and pull the vehicle over.
Cambridgeshire Police said that when officers got to the car, they found a woman in the passenger seat, while in the back were six-month old twins in car seats facing forwards and not secured with seatbelts, a one-year-old girl asleep on the seat between the twins, and a two-year-old boy in the footwell.
Sergeant Gordon Murray said: "It is shocking to think of the danger that Millard put these young children in.
"Not only would any collision, or loss of control, at such speeds have potentially tragic consequences for both the driver and other road users, but the effect on unrestrained toddlers would almost certainly have been fatal.
"It is only through sheer luck that no-one was injured or killed by his driving and this case should send a strong message that such reckless behaviour will not be tolerated by police or the courts."
Millard, 27, told officers he was trying to get to Dover in time to board the last ferry to Germany after missing a vessel in Hull when he was stopped at about 9.35pm on September 14.
Investigations revealed that the Mercedes was Millard's father's, but he was not insured to drive it.
Millard failed to attend his initial court hearing and was arrested at Edinburgh Airport when he flew back into Scotland.
He admitted dangerous driving and driving with no insurance and was jailed for 20 weeks at Peterborough Crown Court last week.
He was also banned from driving for three years and will have to sit a further test before being given his licence back. He must pay £600 costs and a £100 victim surcharge.

When Eileen L. Berman died of appendiceal cancer in April, her husband of 57 years, Stanley, and her family had long ago decided that they wanted to help researchers focus on finding more effective early detection and prevention initiatives.
They looked around at several research facilities, according to Mr. Berman, a former Norton Co. executive who now lives in Pennsylvania.
"It was our conclusion that there wasn't any research center superior in quality and accomplishment to what we found at the University of Massachusetts Medical School," he said. "And, we wanted to give something back to Worcester, a place where we spent 20 years and was so important in the formative years of our family."
Mrs. Berman was treated at UMass Memorial Medical Center, and always valued the care and compassion she received there.
The couple decided to donate money to create the Dr. Eileen L. Berman and Stanley I. Berman Foundation Chair in Biomedical Research at the medical school.
Their donation will be placed in an endowment fund, said James Fessenden, spokesman for the medical school. As that money is invested, the yearly investment dividends will be handed to the researcher to support his or her work. In that way, the endowed chairs can last indefinitely, and can be passed down from one researcher to the next.
The medical school has 34 endowed positions, which includes both endowed chairs and endowed professorships; the oldest, the Harry M. Haidak Professorship in Surgery, was established in 1985 and has been used by four medical school professors over the years. Arthur M. Pappas, the former team physician for the Boston Red Sox, established an endowed Chair of Orthopedics in 1999. Craig C. Mello, the medical school researcher who shared the 2006 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, is the recipient of the Blais University Chair in Molecular Medicine.
Other endowed professorships at the medical school include medicine, women in medicine, medical education, primary care medicine, cardiovascular medicine, cell biology, AIDS research, and more.
Setting up an endowed chair allows the donor to specify exactly what research they would like their donation to support.
In this case, the endowed chair will be supporting research led by Dale L. Greiner, PhD, who will be working to study human cancerous tumors in mice. The research will include, but not be limited to, the very rare form of cancer that took Mrs. Berman.
Mr. Greiner, who is a professor of molecular medicine at the medical school and co-director of the Diabetes Center for Excellence, has been studying Type 1 diabetes for 30 years. For the last 20, he has been developing a mouse that can be engrafted with human tissues, to study how diabetes develops in humans.
A few years ago, he started working with other diseases — HIV, dengue fever, even ebola — in mice, to help develop new treatments.
And now he has begun grafting cancerous tissue from human tumors into mice. Researchers can study the tumor and watch it develop, allowing them to see if there are markers that develop in the mouse's blood that could be used to detect the disease earlier in humans. Researchers can then conduct drug trials on the mice, to see what shrinks the tumor and what the side effects are.
"All of that cancer work is essentially unfunded," he said. "When you go to funding agencies, when you apply for grants, there are always strings attached. They don't like to pay for high-risk ideas that are not yet proven. We can use this unrestricted money to test these ideas... This kind of freedom is where most innovation and discoveries come from."
A retired businessman, Mr. Berman hopes that one of the side benefits of the endowment is a financial shot in the arm for the city of Worcester.
"If they discover something, people would come there to learn more, to be treated," he said. "There could be an opportunity for growth there."
On MCPHS
One note on last week's column: I referred to the pharmacy school in downtown Worcester, MCPHS University, as a "state" school. Despite the Massachusetts in the school's name, it is a private, nonprofit institution.

The PAT is apparently automatic and boring, which has led Roger Goodell to suggest the league's competition committee consider abolishing the PAT altogether. "You want to add excitement with every play," Goodell recently told the NFL Network.
I don't disagree with adding excitement, Roger. After all, no fan wants to watch an NFL player do something they feel they are capable of doing. However, pushing the two-point conversion by subtracting the PAT option is neither that innovative nor that creative of a way to solve this. It's a lukewarm alternative from what we have now, as have been most of the suggestions I've heard on sports talk radio.
So how do we keep the tradition of the PAT and kickers while getting radical at the same time? I'll tell you:
Adjustable goal posts.
I'm serious.
According to the NFL rules, "The goal posts must be 18 feet, 6 inches wide." We've already established there's nothing impressive about a chip-shot PAT through a space as wide as an industrial shipping container. What WOULD make it interesting is if that space was narrowed to, say, 6 feet, 2 inches – exactly one-third of the original goal post width.
Now we're talking some serious kicker skill involved. A confined kick like this is no longer a gimme. In fact, I'd say the success rate would be closer to 60% than 100%. Now, Roger, we're talking about a legitimate dilemma whether to attempt the PAT or go for two. And guess what – it's now exciting either way.
We could even take this concept of adjustable goal posts one step further and apply it to field goals as well. For instance, FG attempts 25 yards and under retain the suggested PAT goal post width of 6' 2". For FG attempts 26-40 yards, double that to 12 ft. 4 in., and anything longer gets the max/current goal post width of 18' 6". By doing so, you've made the kicking game more exciting and given teams a LOT more to think about on 4th down in the enemy's territory.
Give it some thought and your reaction in the comments – good or bad – and tell me WHY.

Boots Riley (The Coup) chosen as speaker at UC Berkley Graduation!
Boots Riley, The Coup's admired, outspoken MC, has just been announced as the keynote speaker at UC Berkeley's Black Graduation Ceremony, slated for Saturday May 12th. The Oakland, CA-based Riley, who has been involved in political activism and hip/hop in the Bay Area since the age of 15, is the driving force behind the group's thought provoking Epitaph album Pick A Bigger Weapon. Released in April 2006, the disc landed at or near the top of a number of critic's recent year-end lists.
The Associated Press (#1), Rolling Stone (Top 50), Murder Dog (#2), The Chicago Tribune (#7), The Salt Lake Tribune (#4), The Onion AV Club (#8), and The Washington Post (#9) bestowed their approval, with The Eastbay Express curiously dubbing it the 'most wrathful rock album' of 2006.
Touted as 'the best hip-hop act of the last decade' by Billboard, outlets as diverse as the New Yorker (The Coup remains one of the rap world's great resources fearless, fierce and funny as hell and the new album is a potent combination of leftist politics, revolutionary humanitarianism, and triumphant funk) and Elle (a record that's hilarious, righteously angry, and highly danceable) have been long on praise for the incendiary group's fifth album.
At the top of its game, The Coup has delivered a genre classic with Pick A Bigger Weapon. Lauded for its sublime, lyrical blend of personal, political and sensual rhymes set to the beat of some of the finest digi-funk since Prince and P-Funk, the album has been called 'their best yet' by a diverse array of publications, including Entertainment Weekly, USA Today and XLR8R. Additionally, rave reviews have come from the likes of Pitchforkmedia.com, XXL, Billboard, Filter,, The Village Voice, URB and many others.
[The Coup] make their intentions of overthrowing the government and partying righteously while they're doing it clear to any dance floor that will have them, Style Weekly wrote. 'This is an unflinching musical manifesto of socialist intent.'
Meanwhile, Rolling Stone asserted, 'Riley's rhymes work so well because they're more about real life than rhetoric, calling Pick A Bigger Weapon 'the rare record that makes revolution sound like hot fun on a Saturday night.' But perhaps The Onion said it best: 'Boots fuses sexuality and celebration with naked politics just as seamlessly as he combines irreverent humor and heartwarming humanism.'

- Page 2 Vutec Vu-Easy Projection Screen Review
- Page 3 Vutec Vu-Easy Projection Screen Review
- Page 4 Feature Table Review
Anyone who really likes films has probably at some point dreamt about having a full-blown front projection system in their house. But then those boring things known as 'practicalities' have most likely reared their ugly heads, with their negative vibes about cost and set up difficulties. Darn.
Today, though, we're looking at a product that might just be able to cut those 'ugly heads' off. For the Vutec Vu-Easy is a remarkably simple-to-install projection screen that can conveniently hang out of the way on your wall like a painting, while also delivering really premium pictures from any half-decent projector.
If you're not familiar with Vutec, the company hails from the US – no great surprise, we guess, given the huge, projection-friendly houses they've got room to build over there.
Vutec makes a wide selection of screens, including motorised models and models using recessed and rising arm designs. But as spatially challenged Brits, we found ourselves particularly drawn to the Vu-Easy model with its hang on the wall rigid frame design. After all, if you can hang one of these babies on a wall it can take up hardly any more room in your house than the wall itself – even though it's giving you a screen size far in excess of anything you'd get from a TV. Unless you somehow installed something like Panasonic's 103in plasma screen behemoth.
Actually, mentioning the Panasonic 103in screen highlights the key issue of price, too. For while that plasma screen will set you back around £50k – plus any extra costs incurred by the nightmarish process of actually installing that unbelievably heavy bit of kit – the Vu-Easy screens start from under £930 for a 92in standard size model.
Obviously we're not completely comparing like with like here, as the Vu-Easy screen needs to have a projector pointed at it before it actually produces any pictures. But with really good projectors now appearing for prices comfortably under two grand, this means the Vu-Easy can still play its part in delivering, say, a 100in home cinema image for 10-15 times less cash than you'd need for the similarly large plasma TV.
And let's not forget, either, that the Vu-Easy concept is far less limited in terms of size than any plasma or LCD technology; for instance, standard Vu-Easy screens go up to 189in diagonal, making even the Panasonic 103in plasma look like a shrimp. Cool.
The Vu-Easy actually comes in a series of standard 16:9 sizes (92in, 103in, 110in, 123in, 133in, and 147in). But you can also have screens custom made to pretty much any size your viewing room demands. What's more, you can also get them in 4:3 aspect ratios if you really think this is worthwhile; a 16:10 ratio more suited to PC sources; and even a 2.35:1 CinemaScope format if you're lucky enough to have a projector with a suitable CinemaScope lens.
Unlike other sites, we thoroughly test every product we review. We use industry standard tests in order to compare features properly. We'll always tell you what we find. We never, ever accept money to review a product. Tell us what you think - send your emails to the Editor.

PHILADELPHIA — Coach Chip Kelly admitted Monday that he made some mistakes in the way he managed the clock during the Philadelphia Eagles' 33-30 loss to the San Diego Chargers on Sunday.
That was most evident on the Eagles' final offensive series, when they drove down the field quickly but settled for a game-tying field goal with 1:51 left in the game. That was more than enough time for the Chargers to march their way to the game-winning field goal.
The Eagles started their drive with 3:11 left in the game trailing by three points. They had a first down on San Diego's 14 with 2:09 remaining. At that point, they rushed to the line of scrimmage, quarterback Michael Vick was hurried and threw an off-balance pass that was incomplete. On the play, Vick took a shot from San Diego's Jarius Wynn. Vick was slow to get up and was ordered to leave the field by the referees.
EAGLES LOSE: Zapped by Chargers 33-30
WEEK 2 TAKEAWAYS: Bears hot, RG3 not
Kelly didn't take a timeout, which would have enabled the Eagles to keep Vick on the field. Instead, backup Nick Foles came into the game and threw an incomplete pass. Vick returned on the next play and also misfired on third down.
Kelly said Sunday that he couldn't take a timeout in that situation. On Monday, he admitted he was wrong.
"That's on me," Kelly said. "I didn't think we could. I just thought that was on me. I should have asked."
That first-down pass by Vick, however, highlighted perhaps another mistake. The Eagles could have let the clock run down to the two-minute warning, then milked the clock a little more before either scoring a touchdown or kicking the field goal.
"When you look at it in hindsight, we didn't score," Kelly said. "We kicked a field goal, so it was tied. We wanted to try to score a touchdown and go up by four (points) and then make them drive the entire field at that point in time.
"So obviously when you look back at it, we probably should have ran the clock down."
The clock management issues were only part of the Eagles' problems, of course. They allowed the Chargers to rack up 539 yards of offense. The defense couldn't pressure San Diego quarterback Phillip Rivers and the defensive backs, particularly Nate Allen, couldn't stop Rivers from completing numerous third down passes. The Chargers went 10-for-15 on third down.
The Eagles defense has allowed 60 points in two games.
It wasn't just Allen, either.
Cornerback Cary Williams was flagged three times for pass interference (one was declined). And Kelly said rookie Earl Wolff, who came in for — and played with — Allen at safety, still has a lot to learn.
That's why Kelly said Wolff isn't quite ready to become the starter in place of Allen.
"Earl is growing and we'll continue to grow him," Kelly said. "But he's still making some mistakes out there. I think they're bringing him along, and we're excited about his future. We still don't feel he's ready to go the whole way."
The Eagles also made their share of mistakes on offense. That included dropped passes and a penalty that negated a touchdown.
"I've made mistakes. I think we've all made mistakes," Kelly said. "That's what this game is all about. No one coaches a perfect game. No one plays a perfect game. But you have to learn from those mistakes and hope they don't happen again."
The Eagles have to hope so. Kelly said of the 31 NFL games played so far, 22 of them have been decided by seven points or less.
"That just makes us understand how important it is to execute every single snap," Kelly said.

In journalist Eliza Griswold's own words, "I went to the places where [Islam and Christianity] meet. I went to the fault line – the most jagged places – intentionally." Griswold chose the 10th parallel, the line of latitude 700 miles north of the equator, where more than half of the world's 1.3 billion Muslims live, as do 60 percent of the world's 2 billion Christians, as a point of observation from which to report on relations between Christianity and Islam in Africa and Asia. In the course of the reporting collected in "The Tenth Parallel," Griswold spent seven years traveling in Nigeria, the Sudan, Somalia, Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines.This week I had a chance to speak with Griswold about her reporting.
Q: So much of what you write about in your book is the story of conflict between Christianity and Islam. And yet, as you note, in many of the places you visited there was peaceful coexistence between the two religions for centuries. Why now are we seeing this conflict?
A: For a couple of interlinked reasons that have to do largely with population growth. [The 10th parallel] is the knife edge of where the world's populations are growing the fastest and religion is also growing the fastest. We're seeing an increase both within Islam and Christianity [and the forms of these religions that are growing the fastest] ... tend to be the most radical and the most effervescent. And when those forms rub up against each other, that tends to cause conflict.
Q: Why is there a resurgence of fundamentalist spirit just now in both Christianity and Islam?
A: The cause is almost impossible to determine and I would say it doesn't have one cause at all. In fact, what's going on is that what we're seeing is a truth that's long been the case, which is the interlinked reality of the world's religion. It is the world's religion, and not the world's weather, that links us to one another, whether we like it or not. We're definitely seeing spikes of a more fervent kind of faith. Is there one determining factor? No, there is not. Definitely both for Christians and for Muslims there's a heightened desire to have a closer relationship with God, one that isn't mediated by the church and its rites or in a mosque with an imam. And it's those direct personal experiences of God that are the underlying cause of revival on both sides.
Q: Do religions cause conflict or do they simply excuse it? Would the conflict be there anyway – and religion is just a way of drawing up sides?
A: I don't think it's possible to tell when a secular conflict ends and religion begins. In the religious conflicts that I saw, most of them had a secular trigger, whether it was a crop of cacao plants, water, land, oil – all of these factors had something to do with the religious conflict.
Q: Your book depicts – sometimes in devastating fashion – the impact that these religious conflicts can have on society's most vulnerable members – often women and children. Was it hard to see this firsthand?
A: Yes. There was a Christian woman named Fakcit Alexander who lived in a Muslim town in Nigeria. The way that it works in this town is that the Christians live at the edge of the city. That's pretty common in some of these heavily Muslim areas in North Africa. Well, the edge of the town also meant the bank of a river. With environmental degradation there were people squished on smaller and smaller pieces of land up to the edge of the river. They were using land right up to the edge of the river – basically they were using flood plains to live on. And that's exactly what it sounds like – sometimes it floods.
Anyway, I spent a day with Fakcit Alexander [in the aftermath of a flash flood]. There was no more bridge to get to where she was stranded in this town. To get to her I basically rode on the edge of a rusted oil barrel. There was no other way to get there and there was no way for her to leave. Her children, all eight of them, had contracted malaria. She had a baby on her back and the baby's name was Cheldon, which, in her language, means "I'm begging for more from my Creator." Cheldon had very bad malaria and his survival was very uncertain. Fakcit has lost everything, even her shoes. To survive, to safeguard their children, the people in this town had actually put babies and children up in the trees [where they waited for two days] because it was the highest point during a flash flood. That experience really, really sticks with me.
Q: You are a self-described "PK" – preacher's kid. What impact do you think your own childhood, your own experience had on your reporting?
A: I grew up in a household where questions of faith and intellect were raised on a daily basis so I definitely have always wondered, how do smart people believe – and there are many [believers] among conservatives and liberals alike – how do they take these stories to be true? So I certainly came from that background of these two intertwined threads and that's how I came to wonder about the question of whether all fundamentalism leads to violence. I thought that I would find among the fundamentalists – whether they were Christian or Muslim – that their beliefs would be entirely different and entirely incomprehensible [to me]. But that is not what I found. What I found was that I had more sympathy and more ability to understand their different points of view than I had imagined. And I think that that had something to do with my upbringing.
Q: There's a lot in the book about the negative impact of religion on society. Were there places you traveled where you saw a positive impact?
A: Oh, for sure! Many, many, many. Because in places, especially in Africa, where national borders began so arbitrarily – they were just colonial borders, imposed superficially – governments meant nothing to many people. What I have found is that religious institutions come to supply some of the good things. They safeguard some of the rights that people need. They safeguard people's rights to clean water. We've certainly seen, after the tsunami [in Thailand], as we see in [the flooding in] Pakistan right now, there are definitely militant groups that come in and take advantage of natural disasters. But there are [also] religious groups that come in – be they Christian or Muslim – to do some very important kinds of work that no other secular [nongovernmental organizations] or states can do.
In many cases they bring a moral order, they allow for a morality, a central understanding of how people should treat each other that, without their presence, is completely unimaginable. That's not always true, because in most places there was preexisitng religion before Christianity and Islam arrived. And in many cases that preexixting religion also protected individual rights. [But] in some places where there has been a total breakdown of the state it is definitely true that the religious institutions supply the moral backbone that nothing else does.
Q: You traveled to some of the world's most dangerous places. Were you afraid?
A: Oh yeah! There were many, many times in which I was very afraid.
Q: Did you feel like you were risking your life?
A: No. Not at all. I went to the places where these two religions meet. And I went to the fault line – the most jagged places – intentionally. But there were very few times when I was more at risk than the people who live with this conflict every single day.

ROCKLEDGE, FL - Research conducted by Holmes Regional Medical Center indicates that the first 100 da Vinci robotics-assisted surgeries produced significant improvements for patients and helped to dramatically reduce overall healthcare costs.
The new analysis was part of a review of the effects of the first 100 robotic surgeries performed at Holmes Regional Medical Center. The 100th robotics-assisted procedure was performed May 11, 2011. Two types of procedures -hysterectomies and prostatectomies-performed by surgeons using the da Vinci robotics-assisted surgery system were tracked. A total of 49 hysterectomies and 31 prostatectomies represented the vast majority of the first 100 procedures performed
According to the data, the average amount of time spent in the hospital following a robotically-assisted hysterectomy was 44 percent less than the average time spent in the hospital following a non-robotics-assisted hysterectomy. The average hospital stay for patients who underwent robotically-assisted prostatectomies averaged 37 percent less time in the hospital compared to non-robotics-assisted procedures.
In addition to reducing the amount of time patients spend in the hospital, the analysis highlighted the significant reductions in healthcare costs created by the robotics-assisted surgery program at Holmes.
According to the Florida Hospital Association (FHA), the average cost for one inpatient day in a Florida hospital is approximately $1,800.
Using FHA's estimate, the robotics-assisted surgery program reduced costs by approximately $4,500 per hysterectomy patient and approximately $1,500 per prostatectomy patient. The total estimated cost savings was $267,000 for just these two procedures alone.
"The data shows what a real difference our robotics-assisted surgery program is making," said Judy Killebrew, RN, FACHE, COO for Holmes Regional Medical Center. "It not only is helping patients feel better and recover faster, but it is proving to be an effective tool in the ongoing battle to reduce healthcare costs across the system."
Robotics-assisted surgery at Holmes Regional Medical Center allows our expertly trained surgeons to use this less-invasive system to perform complex operations that were until recently impossible without major invasive procedures. Like other minimally invasive procedures, robotics-assisted surgery is performed through a few tiny incisions. However, the robotics-assisted system offers surgeons higher magnification, better flexibility, and more precision than conventional laparoscopic surgery.

The Farce is Strong With This One
We interrupt your Friday wreckage to bring you this special report:
Yes, a Belgian burger joint has recently debuted the questionably spelled "Dark Vador Burger," simultaneously offending grammar nazis, fanboys, and taste buds everywhere.
Since it appears this Fan Tum Menace uses a large charcoal briquette for a bun, we decided to hit the local Jabba Jamba Hut for a few "Han-on-the-street" reactions:
"That's no moon. Luke, use the forks!" - Ben Kenobi, Krayt Caller
"I have a very bad feeling about this." - Luke Skywalker, Incessant Whiner
"These are NOT the buns you're looking for." - Princess Leia, Princess
"Look's kind of Chewie to me. One thing's for sure, we're all gonna be a lot thinner!" - Han Solo, Shot First
The Jedi Council could not be reached for comment, but we did receive this automated voicemail:
"It's a TRAP!" - Admiral Ackbar, One Hit Wonder
The Imperial Empire also weighed in with this e-mail from Darth Vader, Sith Lord:
"Come to the dark side. We have charcoal. HAHAH!! But seriously, I find your lack of taste....disturbing. And did you see they misspelled my name? I mean, SERIOUSLY."
Update: I'm relieved to see so many people have grasped my true objective in this post, which was to start a debate over whether the burger chain in question is actually Belgian or French. Bravo! You've passed the test, and may now commence commenting on Youtube videos.
At any rate, the Yahoo article I referenced claims it's Belgian, so my sincere apologies if it is, in fact, French.
Also, according to the latest Epcot Threat Level Report the French translation of Darth Vader is actually "Dark Vader," although you have to say it with a French accent. There are also a lot of footnotes about "Vader" meaning "father" and copyright stuff and whether or not black bread tastes good, but by that point I was distracted by something shiny and lost interest. You can read it all for yourselves in the comments here and on Facebook, though, on the off chance you've misplaced your cattle prods and need to punish yourself for something.
Well, I think that's everything! Have a fantabulous weekend, everyone, and may the Farce be with you...ALWAYS.

Fake IDs and the Effort to Stop them in New Jersey
The United States is facing a serious problem with the rising prevalence and proliferation of fake identification cards across the country. This issue goes well beyond college students trying to pass of fake ID to get into the local watering hole; we are seeing a growing prevalence of expertly forged documents being utilized to commit white collar crimes like identity theft, mortgage fraud, and credit card scams even after both state and federal law enforcement agencies continue to crack down on these issues. The impact of the phenomenon is evident across the US, even in the state of New Jersey. As the stories below show, fake identification has been highlighted in several recent events across the state:
- In South Hackensack, a man was caught using attempting to use a fake California driver's license and credit card to purchase $10,000 worth of flooring from a home improvement store. Employees became suspicious of the man after he appeared to be intoxicated while attempting to make the purchase. When authorities responded to make the arrest, they found the man in possession of 33 different fake ID's from different states as well as 13 fake credit cards.
- Somerset County authorities arrested a young man after he was found with a large stash of fake driver's licenses, as well as tools and materials used to create fake documents. After discovering that the man had purchased materials to create fake ID's, authorities were able to secure a search warrant where they found scanners, printers, laminators and holograms.
- In 2014, three men from Newark were arrested in connection with running an online store that sold the high-quality fake ID's they created. After an investigation in which the authorities successfully purchased fake ID's through the store, they were able to trace the IP address of the confirmation email they received to one of suspects home. Further investigation showed that one of the men had placed several online orders for high quality printers, plastic cards, and other supplies.

What are the Penalties for Fake ID Possession in New Jersey?
In New Jersey, the consequences of being caught with a fake ID can vary. In cases were the offender is a juvenile utilizing a fake ID to obtain alcohol and/or cigarettes, the punishment includes a jail sentence up to 6 months, fines up to $1,000, and the suspension of their drivers license. While this might seem harsh at first, it pails in comparison to the punishment on will face as an adult.

Additionally, if you are caught using the fake ID or document to commit a crime (i.e. identity theft, credit card fraud, etc.), you will face a 5-year jail sentence and fines up to $15,000.
How to Spot a Fake New Jersey ID
For bartenders, doormen, waiters, waitresses, notaries, bank tellers, retail clerks, and any other people who must verify ID's in a professional environment, the proliferation in fake ID creation and distribution is disturbing. In many scenarios, the person responsible for failing to recognize a forged ID takes on just as much, if not more, liability than the person possessing the forged document. That being said, it is absolutely vital that businesses needing to regularly verify the identity of their patrons or employees use the I.D. Checking Guide.

In the latest look at stocks ordered by largest market capitalization, Russell 3000 component Syntel Inc. (SYNT) was identified as having a larger market cap than the smaller end of the S&P 500, for example Jabil Circuit, Inc. (JBL), according to The Online Investor.Market capitalization is an important data point for investors to keep an eye on, for various reasons. The most basic reason is that it gives a true comparison of the value attributed by the stock market to a given company's stock. Many beginning investors look at one stock trading at $10 and another trading at $20 and mistakenly think the latter company is worth twice as much — that of course is a completely meaningless comparison without knowing how many shares of each company exist. But comparing market capitalization (factoring in those share counts) creates a true "apples-to-apples" comparison of the value of two stocks. In the case of Syntel Inc. ( SYNT), the market cap is now $3.67B, versus Jabil Circuit, Inc. ( JBL) at $3.66B.

Sep 26, 2006 (CIDRAP News) – Scientists reported yesterday that an experimental vaccine triggered a good immune response to H9N2 avian influenza virus, a type that has caused a few human infections and is considered capable of evolving into a pandemic strain.
When combined with an adjuvant (immune-boosting chemical), low doses of the vaccine generated a strong antibody response in volunteers, according to researchers led by Robert L. Atmar, MD, of Baylor College of Medicine in Houston. Their report was published online by Clinical Infectious Diseases.
The vaccine was made by Novartis Vaccines and Diagnostics, formerly Chiron Corp. In 2004 Chiron won a contract from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) to make 40,000 doses of the experimental H9N2 vaccine. The NIAID supported the new study.
"The results of this clinical trial add to the growing body of information demonstrating the potential value of adjuvanted avian influenza vaccines," NIAID Director Anthony Fauci, MD, commented in a news release. "In the event of an influenza pandemic, adjuvanted vaccines could provide a way to extend a limited vaccine supply to more people."
Atmar and colleagues write that H9N2 viruses are widespread in Eurasian poultry. Two of the three different Asian lineages of these viruses can bind to human as well as bird cell receptors (sialic acid residues) and therefore may be more likely to infect humans than other avian flu viruses are, they report.
An H9N2 virus infected two children in Hong Kong in 1999, marking the first human cases. Another Hong Kong child had an H9N2 infection in 2003. All three children recovered.
In a phase 1 trial, the researchers tested the vaccine in 96 healthy volunteers between the ages of 18 and 34. The vaccine consisted of purified preparations of the viral surface proteins hemagglutinin and neuraminidase, derived from an H9N2 virus isolated from chickens in Hong Kong in 1997.
Half of the volunteers received the vaccine only, while half received the vaccine with Novartis's MF59 adjuvant. Four dose sizes were used: 3.75, 7.5, 15, or 30 micrograms (mcg). (For comparison, seasonal flu vaccine typically contains 15 mcg of each of three different antigens.) Each volunteer received two doses 28 days apart. The volunteers were tested for antibodies before each vaccination and 4 weeks after the second dose.
Results showed that the adjuvanted vaccine generated significantly better immune responses than the nonadjuvanted vaccine at all dose levels. For example, all those who received adjuvanted vaccine at the lowest dose (3.75 mcg) had a strong antibody response (hemagglutination inhibition titer of at least 32) after the second dose, whereas only 67% of those who received the lowest dose of nonadjuvanted vaccine had a strong response.
In general, a single dose of adjuvanted vaccine triggered as good an antibody response as two doses of nonadjuvanted vaccine. This raises the possibility that a single-dose vaccination may be effective with an adjuvanted vaccine, the authors write.
"In our trial, a single inoculation of adjuvant-containing H9N2 vaccine, even at the lowest dosage, generated a good antibody response," Atmar commented in the NIAID news release.
The injections caused no serious reactions, but mild pain and tenderness at the injection site were more common in those receiving adjuvanted vaccine.
On the negative side, the researchers found that the vaccine generated little reaction to an H9N2 virus different from the one used in the vaccine. Only a minority of the volunteers showed any immune response to this virus, and none had a strong response.
MF59 is currently licensed for use as a vaccine adjuvant in Europe but not in the United States, the NIAID said.

LeTourneau University theology professors Dr. Kelly D. Liebengood and Dr. Aaron J. Kuecker have co-authored a chapter in a new book, "Evangelical Faith and the Challenge of Historical Criticism."
The book has been getting significant attention in theology and biblical studies circles for the manner in which it seeks to address the challenges of historical criticism which, at times, seem to undermine the Christian faith.
In their chapter titled "The Paul of Acts and the Paul of the Epistles," Kuecker and Liebengood analyse the historical critical claims that the chronology of Paul's letters does not match the account of Paul's life in Acts, and that the theology found in Paul's letters is different than the theology that Paul promotes in his sermons in the book of Acts. Other chapters in the book engage such topics as the Fall, the Exodus, the Conquest, the Covenant as a Post-Exilic Phenomenon, Pseudepigraphy, Prophecy, and the Historical Jesus,
British academics Christopher Hayes and Christopher Ansberry invited Kuecker and Liebengood to be contributors on the book, which is available on Amazon.com.
Kuecker is also the author of "The Spirit and the 'Other': Social Identity, Ethnicity, and Intergroup Reconciliation in Luke - Acts" (2011).
Liebengood is the author of "The Eschatology of 1Peter: Considering the Influence of Zechariah 9-14 (2013), and he co-edited "Engaging Economics: New Testament Scenarios and Early Christian Reception (2009).

If the Trx Suspension Online package is all rugged and out of shape, regardless of how much of a treasure the inside is, no one will be interested.ReplyDelete
Some of these Cheap Trx will come with the product for free but if high quality package has to be done like in wholesale, the buyer has to compensate for the extra packaging.
It seems that among the consistently hottest sellers from this TRX suspension trainer line is the Highrise.
High quality packaging of TRX For Sale, watches, earrings and other help protect them from getting dust or moisture from the environment.
When people see a buyer carrying a bag with the TRX Suspension Training Sale of the company, they will definitely get attracted and pulled towards with an urge to get the same.
trx exercises also enhances flexibility in transport.
If the Trx Workouts has a good shape, it will be much manageable to transport and distribute.
This is highly paid much to details because the cheap trx company has stores all over the world and a slight mistake can end up destroying the whole collection.
In today's world, nothing without a trx for sale package has the ability to sell including an eraser.
Simple though very important thing to consider is that the TRX Workouts Sale package is not only aimed at preserving, but to get the attention of the target market.
