MusiCares MAP Fund Benefit To Honor Jerry Cantrell, Neil Lasher
The eighth annual MusiCares MAP Fund benefit concert will honor Alice In Chains co-founder Jerry Cantrell and certified interventionist and Sony/ATV Music Publishing Senior Consultant Neil Lasher at Club Nokia in Los Angeles on May 31.
Cantrell will be honored with the Stevie Ray Vaughan Award for his dedication and support of the MusiCares MAP Fund, and for his commitment to helping other addicts with the addiction and recovery process. Lasher will be the recipient of MusiCares' From the Heart Award for his unconditional friendship and dedication to the mission and goals of the organization. All proceeds will benefit the MusiCares MAP Fund, which provides members of the music community access to addiction recovery treatment regardless of their financial situation.
Hosted by television personality Steve-O, the evening will feature a special performance by eight-time GRAMMY nominees Alice In Chains featuring guitarist/vocalist Cantrell, guitarist/vocalist William DuVall, bassist Mike Inez, and drummer Sean Kinney. GRAMMY-nominated musician Moby will DJ live during dinner. Additional artists will be announced shortly.
"Jerry's role in shaping the world of rock music is profound and ongoing," said Neil Portnow, President/CEO of The Recording Academy and MusiCares. "His artistry as a guitarist is inspiring, and his contributions as a songwriter have earned Alice In Chains millions of fans around the world. And Neil has built an extraordinary career spanning more than 30 years in the music industry, and a parallel career in the field of substance abuse where his name has become synonymous with recovery and survival. But what unites Jerry and Neil are their unwavering support of MusiCares and our recovery programs, and their unselfish capacity to be of service to music people struggling with addiction."
"From what I've seen, addiction can be an occupational hazard in the music business and I know firsthand how the MusiCares MAP Fund helps artists and members of the music community find the resources for recovery," said Cantrell. "I've been a supporter for a long time, and I'm proud to help raise awareness and funds so this organization can continue to save lives."
"I've been very fortunate to have two rewarding careers — one in the music industry and one in the field of addiction recovery," said Lasher. "I've made countless friends in both, and have wonderful memories spanning many years. And because I've seen the ravages of addiction take their toll on artists, crew members, myself, and others who work in the music business, I've been a supporter of the MusiCares MAP Fund from the very beginning. Their programs give people their dignity and their lives back."
Alongside fellow Seattle bands Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Soundgarden, Alice In Chains changed the face of popular music. Cantrell's contributions to the landscape of modern rock music are undeniable, and the music he has written has not only moved millions of people, but has stood the test of time. After several years honing his skills with local bands in the Seattle area, Cantrell formed Alice In Chains in 1987, alongside bandmates Kinney, Layne Staley, and Mike Starr. The band quickly developed a devout following, and by 1989 signed with Columbia Records. Over the course of their career Alice In Chains have achieved international acclaim, releasing albums and EPs that have sold more than 20 million copies worldwide and charting 13 top 10 rock singles. The band also had two consecutive albums debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart, including 1994's Jar Of Flies, which became the first EP in history to achieve the feat.
Upon Alice In Chains' hiatus from touring in 1996, Cantrell continued to write prolifically, releasing two successful solo albums. Four years after the passing of Staley, in 2002 Alice In Chains reformed and subsequently released Black Gives Way To Blue in 2009. The album debuted at No. 5 on the Billboard 200 chart, landed two No. 1 songs on Billboard's Rock Songs chart, spawned consecutive GRAMMY nominations for Best Hard Rock Performance in 2009 and 2010, and was certified gold. Cantrell was also voted Best Guitarist of the Year by the readers of Guitar World magazine. Firmly re-established as one of the world's preeminent rock bands, Alice In Chains capped 14 months of touring in support of the album with a sold-out arena run, and are currently working on their next album.
Lasher is a certified alcoholism and substance abuse counselor, and a certified ARISE interventionist. Sober for approximately 25 years, Lasher has emerged as an active leader in creating alcohol and substance abuse recovery opportunities for individuals in the music industry. He has been a consultant for MusiCares and its Safe Harbor Room program, which was first established backstage at the 39th Annual GRAMMY Awards telecast to provide a support system to artists and crew members struggling with addiction issues. Lasher is also a consultant to Caron Treatment Centers and a member of Caron's New York advisory board.
In addition to his accomplishments in the field of alcoholism and substance abuse, Lasher is a music industry veteran who has worked with Pat Benatar, James Blunt, Billy Idol, Huey Lewis, Rob Thomas, and many more top artists. He has more than 30 years of experience, including work at radio and major record labels and his past 20 years in the music publishing industry. In his role as senior consultant for Sony/ATV Music Publishing in New York, he works closely with creative and licensing executives on priority artists and projects. Sony/ATV Music Publishing owns or administers more than 750,000 copyrights by such legendary artists as the Beatles, Leonard Cohen, Neil Diamond, Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Graham Nash, Willie Nelson, Stevie Nicks, Little Richard, Diane Warren, and Hank Williams, among others. The company's growing current roster of chart-topping artists includes Akon, Colbie Caillat, Lady Gaga, John Mayer, Shakira, Taylor Swift, and KT Tunstall.

GLENDALE — For Alberto Crane, a veteran of 18 mixed-martial-arts bouts and countless grappling tournaments, his next fight — a three-round welterweight tilt against veteran Gabe Rivas at King of the Cage's Turning Point card today — poses no novel obstacles.
"I know what I can do," Crane said. "What'll happen will happen."
But while it's business as usual in the cage for Crane, his nerves are a bit different outside of the cage when it comes to coaching, as the Glendale resident will lead a throng of his Gracie Barra students into competition at today's event at the Braemar Country Club in Tarzana, which starts at 5:30 p.m.
"It's a lot of these guys' pro debuts," said Crane, who's the head instructor at Gracie Barra Burbank and Pasadena.
The card will also see the pro debut, and a much ballyhooed one at that in MMA circles, of female fighter Ronda Rousey, a 2008 Olympic bronze medalist in judo and a 3-0 amateur MMA fighter ranked No. 1 in the world in the 145-pound featherweight class. Rousey has trained largely at Glendale Fighting Club under the tutelage of Edmond Tarverdyan and with Team Hayastan under the renowned Gokor Chivitchian.
"I'm always nervous for everything," said Rousey of making her debut. "I think it's a natural reaction.
"I'm nervous, excited, I'm ready."
Rousey, who offers a stellar judo and submission background, won't make your average debut, facing veteran Ediane Gomes, who sports a stellar 6-1 record.
"The reason I'm fighting someone that's 6-1 is nobody else would even take the fight," Rousey said, adding that her management even went as far as offering to pay for travel and expenses for potential opponents.
Gomes owns five wins via submission, all of them by way of armbar. Despite her opponent's experience advantage, Rousey, who's trained alongside the likes of local fighters such as Karen Darabedyan and Manny Gamburyan, enters today confident in her chances.
"I don't think anyone has the right to beat me. I feel I've worked too hard and nobody's worked harder than me," said Rousey, adding that she believes the matchup is also good for her stylistically. "She's a jiu-jitsu girl, standing's not really her strong suit. I think it's a great matchup for me."
Also on the card in the main event will be Jared Papazian, who has trained at times with Crane and at both the GFC and the Main Event Gym in Glendale. Papazian (11-6-1) will take on Kana Hyatt (7-9) in a bantamweight (135 pounds) matchup that's a rematch of a 2010 bout that Papazian won via unanimous decision.
As for Crane's contingent, it is led by Orlando Sanchez (1-0), a heavyweight whose opponent is still yet to be determined. Sanchez, a La Cañada Flintridge resident, is an instructor at Gracie Barra Pasadena, as is Martin Gantt, who will make his pro debut today, along with Gracie Barra pupils Keenan Lewis, Rob Gooch, Daniel Clarke and Ako Harper.
Lewis is set to face Luke Adams (2-4) in a featherweight (145 pounds) bout, Gantt will face John Hahn (0-1) in a lightweight (155) contest, Gooch will fight Max Ceniceros (0-1) at a 150-pound catch weight, Harper will square off with Erick Winston in a featherweight match and Clark will take on Jeremiah Ramage in a lightweight tussle.
Crane's most recent MMA bout saw him defeat Ludwing Salazar via submission in the first round of a bout of a card held in Costa Rica. The win, which came in December of 2010, snapped a two-bout losing skid for Crane, whose jiu-jitsu game is regarded as one of the best in MMA and has led him to 12 career submission wins.
Thus, Crane (13-5), a former King of the Cage champion and two-time Ultimate Fighting Championship veteran, believes most realize his game plan for today and he's relatively certain of Rivas'.
"He's gonna try and knock me out, he's gonna try and beat me up. He has heavy hands," said Crane of Rivas, who has lost six fights in a row. "I'm gonna try and close the distance, take him down and submit him. I don't think that's a surprise to anyone."
Rivas (13-18-1) has notched eight wins via knockout and has lost nine times by submission. He's faced such notables as Charles Bennett, Rob McCullough and Tony Hervey, the latter having dispatched both Rivas and Crane.
Though he's certainly not taking Rivas lightly, Crane's top priorities seem to be with his students, who have trained with him at Main Event Gym in Glendale, among other venues. Having taken the fight on roughly three weeks' notice, Crane also insisted that it be the first bout of the card so he could have the rest of the night to concentrate on cornering his stable of fighters. And he also took the bout in the 170-pound welterweight class, though he normally fights at the lightweight limit of 155.
"I'm not cutting any weight," he said. "I'm going in as is."
And he's most assuredly going in as a fighter and a coach.
Nonetheless, despite the added and varying pressure, Crane expects to have a large contingent there to cheer on him, his fighters, Rousey and Papazian.
Said Crane: "We should have a lot of support."

Carrie Underwood Talks Beauty, Her Style Icons and Healthy Eating
Carrie Underwood is getting ready to perform at the Nordstrom Symphony Fashion Show, a sold-out event that will take place at Nashville's Schermerhorn Symphony Center on Feb. 28. The show, which will feature an exclusive presentation of Oscar de la Renta's Pre-Fall 2012 collection, will also showcase a performance by Underwood. In a recent interview with Nashville's NFocus magazine, Underwood dished a bit on her favorite designers, her style muses and how she stays fit and glowing despite her hectic schedule.
When asked what feeds her internal glow and keeps her happy and serene, Underwood says it's all about squeezing in a little time for herself. "My life can get pretty crazy at times," she admits. "I try to make sure I get a little 'me time' on a daily basis. Whether it's that hour in the morning when I get to work out, getting a pedicure, or just getting to spend some alone time with my husband, every day should have a time that's just for me."
Even though the starlet says she loves to change up the designers she wears, when she has a day off she reveals she's not about spending that time glitzing up. Instead, she sticks to a simple beauty regimen and says her favorite not-dressy clothes are sweatpants and a T-shirt. "I don't want to spend my days 'off' getting ready for life, so when getting ready, the quicker, the better!" she emphasizes. "I try to get a good night's sleep, work out, shower, throw some quick make-up on, take a quick curling iron to my hair, and off we go!"
Speaking of her own style icons, Underwood lists women like Charlize Theron and Reese Witherspoon, saying, "They are beautiful, but in a natural way. They look like they take care of themselves but don't do anything too crazy. They always look and act classy."
To maintain her figure and keep her perfect poise and posture, the 'Undo It' singer spills, "I do my best to eat healthy and work out. I am a vegan, so that certainly helps. It's hard to be vegan and not stay pretty lean. As far as posture goes, I could certainly work on that. It's easy to stand up straight when I know the camera is pointed at me but I will see pictures of myself when I'm caught off-guard and realize how slumped over I am."
And when she's on the road and has to grab a quick bite, Underwood says her go-to snacks are "almonds, apples, dried fruit (with no added sugar…don't understand why they add sugar to fruit), raw fruit and nut bars, maybe a few squares of super dark chocolate, and veggies and hummus." No wonder she says so beautiful and lean!

On a Japanese mandoline, slice the garlic as finely as possible; it should be translucent.
Heat 2 cups vegetable oil in a large, heavy Dutch oven to 250 degrees F. Add the sliced garlic and cook until golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Peel and devein the prawns, leaving the head and tail pieces intact. Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large saute pan over high heat until oil is almost smoking. Season 6 prawns with salt and pepper and add to hot oil. Cook 1 minute on each side and then transfer to a paper towel to drain. Repeat until all prawns are cooked, adding more oil as needed.
Arrange prawns on a plate and drizzle with the Lemon Confit, using some of the oil. Sprinkle with garlic chips and chopped parsley.
Prepare the Lemon Confit a couple days in advance. Slice the lemons lengthwise and place in a stainless steel pot. Add all remaining ingredients, except olive oil, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to maintain a slow simmer; too much heat will cause the lemon to fall apart. Simmer for 15 minutes and then pour into sanitized mason jars. Seal and let cool in refrigerator.
When ready to use, scrape out the pith of the lemons with a knife and cut up the skin into small cubes. Immerse in olive oil a couple hours prior to using.

Rafael Nadal may not be quite on Novak Djokovic's unbeatable level, but, uh, he's still number one in the world. You'd think that would manifest itself in his words with reporters after a straight-sets victory over Ivan Ljubicic today.
No. On second thought, here's the Wall Street Journal:
"No, seriously, I am not confident," he said. "I am not playing enough well to win this tournament."
And then there was this: "The thing is you have to be realist, and today I'm not playing enough well to win this tournament."
And this: "I have to hit the ball with a little bit more conviction, in my opinion," he said. "For moments I am playing a few good points, but after I have few bad points."
And this: "I won four times already here, five times already here. I don't have an obligation to win six. I going to try for sure, but…." He trailed off.
If nothing else, he's refreshing, in the same way that Strangeways, Here We Come is refreshing after a few days of nice weather and bubblegum pop. We're gonna need some eyeliner at Roland Garros.

Welcome to my blog and the place where I will post my photos and musings from my life as an ultrarunner. My nickname "Shining" was given to me by a group of very special students after I finished my first 100-miler, the Massanutten Mountain Trails 100. They were the inspiration that enabled me to finish this awesome race, and I try to live each day with a "shining" attitude!

Tough Dirt Chicks
First, in late February, it was Jenny Anderson, mother of three and Spanish teacher, who took on the 506.8 mile Camino Del Santiago in Spain. With the support of her family and school, she took two weeks away to run/hike and experience the rich history of the trail and set a women's speed record in the process. She endured snow storms, rain, cold, no sleep, and injury to complete her pilgrimage in 9 days, 5 hours, and 29 minutes.
Jenny at White River 50
Then it was Anne Lundblad. Anne is a mom and full-time counselor at Warren-Wilson College, and a previous JFK 50 course record holder and World Cup 100K podium finisher. She took on the 77-mile Foothills Trail in South Carolina in April and set the women's Fastest Known Time (FKT) in 20 hours and 47 minutes.
Jenny, the legendary Rebekah Trittipoe, and Anne after setting the women's FKT on the South Beyond 6000 summits in 2009
Next, it was Jennifer Pharr Davis. I followed Jen on her quest to set the FKT on the Appalachian Trail this summer by reading excellent blog updates written by her hubby, Brew. Jen had previously set the AT women's speed record of 57 days in 2008, and this time she beat Andrew Thompson's 2005 record by a day to finish in 46 days, 11 hours and 20 minutes. Jen sums it all up in a very moving and personal tribute to the trail and her husband here.
Jen and me (with Rebekah in the background) at Holiday Lake 50K, 2011
Finally, just last Saturday, my blogger buddy Ronda Sundermeier (also a mom) fulfilled her dream of becoming a Leadwoman, which means she completed both the Leadville 100 Trail Race AND Mountain Bike Race, as well as the Leadville Marathon, 50 Mile trail Race and the Leadville 10K, all within a span of 7 weeks. And did I mention this was all at altitude? What is really impressive is that Ronda had no previous endurance biking experience, so she went way out of her comfort zone to learn the basics of endurance biking in order to achieve her goal.
Ronda, all smiles at the Leadville 50
I am in awe of these women. They looked their respective challenges in the eye and took them on with grit, grace, and guts. One of my goals for 2011 is to take a chance at failure, and these women took that risk, and then some. In fact, I was so inspired by their feats that I decided to take on a little multi-day challenge of my own in the next few weeks, just to see if I had a fraction of what they have in guts and perseverance.
My next blog post will report the answer!
p.s. It is fitting that Rebekah Trittipoe shows up in two of the pics. Rebekah is one of the toughest dirt chicks I know. She is a previous FKT owner of the Allegheny Trail and SB6000, as well as being a consistent source of wisdom for female ultrarunners as well as her high school cross country runners.

I agree with you 100% about these women. I've got many women as ultra running friends and in general I know women are far tougher than the men can ever be for these events. I always salute the women! Good post!

Certainly a group of tough dirt chicks. What a post. I know they not only inspire the women, but they do the same to us men. I would like to point out that I have chased nearly all of them from behind and never did catch them. They are truly "tough dirt chicks".

It is a very exciting time to see so many women completing such audacious goals -- ones that were historically dominated by the opposite sex. I think in many ways women are actually better suited to multi-day endeavors. The speed-factor differences are nullified in multi-days and I believe most women have superior psychological capacity in comparison to men. Men are more "do or die", whereas women can entertain MANY thoughts (positive and negative) and compartmentalize in order to keep going. These thoughts really materialized on the AT through my experiences and my interaction with Jen. I think she has opened the door for many other women to show their talent on long trails and multi-day events.

UCLA Overcomes Washington State In Overtime, 44-41
Oct. 15, 2005
PULLMAN, Wash. - Maurice Drew had a 1-yard touchdown run in overtime and Drew Olson threw for five scores as No. 12 UCLA came from 21 points down to beat Washington State 44-41 Saturday.
The Bruins (6-0, 3-0 Pacific-10) snapped a four-game WSU win streak and posted their first win in Pullman since 1993.
Olson completed 31 of 45 passes for 338 yards. He connected twice with Marcedes Lewis for TDs. Drew, Marcus Everett and Gavin Ketchum also caught scoring passes from Olson.
Drew rushed 29 times for 115 yards, but the Cougars (3-3, 0-3) only kicked once to the return specialist who led the nation with 33.8 yards per punt return.
Olson hit Everett with a 9-yard scoring pass to tie it 38-38 with 44 seconds remaining.
WSU's Loren Langley hit a 37-yard field goal in overtime to give WSU a 41-38 lead.
When UCLA got the ball, a facemask penalty gave the Bruins the ball on WSU's 5. Drew ran four yards to the WSU 1, then bulled over for the winning score.
UCLA rolled up 516 yards of offense against the Cougars, who had 499 yards. Most of those came from Jerome Harrison, who ran for a career-high 260 yards. The leading rusher in the conference, he had 182 yards at the half.
WSU quarterback Alex Brink started out strong, but was unable to move the team at crucial times in the second half. Brink, who threw six interceptions the last two games, had none against UCLA. He completed 19 of 33 attempts for 169 yards.
Olson connected with Drew for a 45-yard scoring play to climb within 28-21 midway through the third quarter. Justin Medlock cut the Cougars' lead to 38-31 with a 36-yard field goal with about 10 minutes remaining in the game.
WSU led 21-0 early in the second quarter after Harrison ran 57 yards for a score on the Cougars' first possession and Brink threw 6- and 9-yard TDs to Jason Hill and Michael Bumpus.
Harrison's 21-yard TD run put WSU up 28-7 after Ketchum caught a 21-yard scoring pass from Olson. Olson's 4-yard pass to Lewis just before halftime cut WSU's lead to 28-14.
WSU's Langley hit a career-long 48-yard field goal with 6:20 remaining in the third period to make it 31-21.
UCLA's 6-0 record is the Bruins' best start since going 6-0 to start the 2001 season.
It was the first UCLA victory over WSU since a 49-17 win in Los Angeles in 1998.

Heading for a docking to the International Space Station later today, Endeavour's astronauts continue to close in on the orbital outpost as a new trio of residents prepares to take over command of the complex.
Commander Ken Cockrell, Pilot Paul Lockhart and Mission Specialists Philippe Perrin and Franklin Chang-Díaz, and Expedition Five Commander Valery Korzun and Flight Engineers Peggy Whitson and Sergei Treschev, were awakened just after 4:30 Central time this morning by "American Woman," by Lenny Kravitz, a song selected for Whitson.
At the time of the crew's wakeup call, Endeavour had closed to within 900 statute miles of the ISS, aiming for a linkup to the docking port at the forward end of the Destiny Laboratory at 11:17 a.m. Central time as the two vehicles fly off the northeast coast of Australia, south of New Guinea. On board the station, the Expedition Four crew, Commander Yury Onufrienko and Flight Engineers Carl Walz and Dan Bursch, are spending the morning preparing for the arrival of Endeavour's astronauts and their Expedition Five replacements. Onufrienko, Walz and Bursch are in their 184th day in space, their 182nd day aboard the ISS.
A little less than two hours after Endeavour docks to the station, the hatches between the two spacecraft will open and Onufrienko, Bursch and Walz will greet their counterparts and conduct a safety briefing. Then, the ten astronauts and cosmonauts will begin transferring equipment, supplies and experiments between the two vehicles. The two Expedition crews will exchange their custom-made Soyuz return craft seat liners for the rescue vehicle currently docked to the station. Once the new Expedition Five crew conducts checks of their Russian entry suits, they will officially take over command of station operations, and Onufrienko, Walz and Bursch will become shuttle crewmembers.
All systems aboard Endeavour and the ISS continue to function in excellent shape.
The next STS-111 mission status report will be issued early Friday evening, or earlier, if events warrant.
NASA Johnson Space Center Mission Status Reports and other information are available automatically by sending an Internet electronic mail message to email@example.com. In the body of the message (not the subject line) users should type "subscribe hsfnews" (no quotes).

First-inning burst helps Wolf, Rangers down A's
Arlington, TX – David Murphy and Adrian Beltre slugged first- inning homers to back a solid performance from Ross Wolf, and Texas clipped Oakland, 3-1, in the finale of a three-game set.
Murphy's blast was a two-run shot and Beltre added a solo homer for the Rangers, who avoided a sweep at the hands of their division rivals.
Recalled from Triple-A prior to the game for his first major league start, Wolf (1-0) snagged his first MLB victory by giving up a run on three hits with three strikeouts and a pair of walks over five-plus innings.
"For him to come up and pitch and get his first big league win, it's cool to say you were a part of it," Rangers catcher A.J. Pierzynski said.
Brandon Moss drove in the lone run and Derek Norris added two hits for the Athletics, whose five-game win streak came to a halt.
Jarrod Parker (2-6) was charged in defeat for six hits and three runs while fanning five in seven full frames.
Wolf worked out of a two-on, none-out jam in the fifth, stranding two in scoring position. He walked Seth Smith and allowed a double to Norris before getting Eric Sogard and Adam Rosales on pop outs and Coco Crisp on a grounder to first.
The 30-year-old right-hander departed with two on and none out in the sixth for Neal Cotts, who worked out of trouble by retiring the next three batters in succession.
"I think it meant everything to anyone that's in the game of baseball that has a dream,'' Texas manager Ron Washington said. "I think he did a great job of going through a hot team."
Oakland failed to score a runner from third in the seventh against Cotts, then went quietly in the eighth facing Robbie Ross. Joe Nathan retired the side in order in the ninth to record his 14th save.
Parker was victimized early on, as Elvis Andrus singled ahead of Murphy's home run, then after Lance Berkman flied out, Beltre launched his 10th of the year to give Wolf all the help he needed.
"He threw a couple of early-count heaters that they squared up," Oakland manager Bob Melvin said of his starter. "Early in the season, that game gets away from him. It looks like he's more comfortable now."
Oakland got one back in the fourth on a sac fly from Moss to plate Crisp, who singled to start the frame and moved to third on a Yoenis Cespedes double.
Game Notes
Prior to Wednesday, Wolf pitched in 25 combined games with Florida (2007) and Oakland (2010), working 25 innings over that span and finishing nine contests without having made a start ... To make room for Wolf, the Rangers sent pitcher Cory Burns to Round Rock... Both teams are back in action on Friday, as Texas begins a five-game road trip in Seattle, while Oakland heads to Houston.

"Who Owns Truth?" - Biomedical Research in a Health Policy Context
Published on
This presentation examines a claim made by PhRMA on behalf of pharmaceutical manufacturing companies of America, and the response of the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) questioning drug company publication policies and practices. Also considered are changes in law (2007) governing Food and Drug Administration regulation and public access to results of clinical trials. I propose that the contractual relation between the investigator and subjects (patients) is the source of a competing claim requiring public access to the evidence of clinical trials. The ownership claim is not settled. Do not individuals acting on their own best judgment and publishing data for the public good contrary to corporate authority deserve the support of their institutions and professional associations?

News Release from the California State University Office of the Chancellor:
Willie Hagan Named Interim President
Veteran Campus Exec Takes Office on Monday, Jan. 9
Jan. 3, 2012
Willie Hagan, vice president for administration and chief financial officer of California State University, Fullerton, has been named as interim president of the university effective Jan. 9. Hagan will serve in the capacity until a permanent president begins at the campus. CSU Trustees announced a search that began in October for a new president to succeed President Milton Gordon, who is retiring after serving as president of the university since 1990.
Hagan joined Cal State Fullerton in 1996, overseeing the university's administrative functions and has provided increasing levels of service to the campus during a period of unprecedented growth. From 2000 to 2003, he also served as interim vice president of university advancement and was instrumental in the reorganization of that division. Beginning in 2005, Hagan assumed responsibility for university financial operations, serving as the chief financial officer for the university.
Hagan holds a doctorate in psychology from the University of Connecticut and a master of fine arts degree from UCLA. Before coming to CSUF, he served as associate vice president for administration at the University of Connecticut, and as a lobbyist for the University of Connecticut and the Connecticut Board of Governors for Higher Education at the state and federal level.

AccessPanel V4
I have recently purchased this product. I wish to use it to enter data into an excel spreadsheet. Using the "return" key in a "macro" results in the cursor jumping to the next cell vertically. Unfortunately I want the movement to be horizontal. Is it possible to use the "tab" or "cursor" keys in a macro in order to accomplish this. I have tried it without success. Should this not be implemented currently would it be possible for a future release?
0x8007000E Agenda Fusion 6
I recently cannot enter new calendar items, notes, etc. and get error 0x8007000E on my Pocket PC2003 using Agenda Fusion 6. How can I resolve this?
We have not heard of that error message and we have not offered support for the old 6.x versions for a couple of years now. So please clarify, Since you have owned the program for 3-4 years and this has not happened -- What recently changed, do you have a new device? Did you do a hard reset? Did you try to soft reset the device and reinstall the program to see if that clears the behavior? If you wish to reinstall and you do not have a download file or if your file is very old, please us a fresh download of version 6.86 from this web page,
http://www.developerone.com/agendaf...oad_archive.htm scroll down a bit on the page to see the 6.86 download buttons.
ipaq Fusion 6
I have uninstalled fusion and installed the newer version 6.86 after downloading from your website. Still I get the message "Unable to save changes to appointment. (0x8007000E)" with heading "Pocket Outlook Error", when trying to enter a new appointment. The strange thing is that syncing with my pc works fine, and new appointments entered on my pc appear nicely on my pda (both syncing with my home pc with XP and Outlook 2003 and with my work laptop with Vista and Outlook 2007). I just cannot enter new appointments on my pda....... It worked fine until recently. The only change I can think of is my new laptop with Vista and Outlook 2007. I have 8.36 MB storage memory and 17.92 MB program memory free. Any ideas?
You do not mention which device you are using. Be sure that you have Agenda Fusion loaded to the main memory only, maybe you installed to a memory card. Agenda Fusion will not work properly from a memory card. Maybe your device has some problems, as devices get old they need to be replaced unfortunately as they get buggy. You also did not mention if soft resetting the device clears the issue, please try that as well.
HP iPAQ 2210
I am using HP iPAQ 2210 and still have the same problem.
I have read something about a recurrence limit of 1300. I have no idea how many recurrent entries I have, but the calendar totals 3400 "entries" (if you select category view). Am I just running out of space? How to compact?
Have you looked at limiting the amount of data that you sync with the device/PC? In ActiveSync you can change the time frame for 'Calendar' items that you sync. Then the data remains on your PC and you are not clogging up the device with excess data. If you are not familiar with this setting, connect your device to your PC and let ActiveSync run. When ActiveSync shows finished on the PC, go there to choose View > Details, then double click on 'Calendar' there and you will see the settings options for limiting the time frame of data that you are syncing.
limiting the data....
Mm, does not work. Setting a limited timeframe of only a week before and after does not thrink the appointment database nor does it delete already existing appointments on the pda.....
It sounds like you are not using ActiveSync, because in ActiveSync there are not settings for a week before and after. This question is not related to any of our software, we attempted to help but it appears that you need to contact the tech support for the sync software that you are using. If the sync is set properly, you can limit the data that is sent to the device.

Last month, George Raveling was joined by CBS' James Brown on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial to recall the Martin Luther King "I Have A Dream" speech given 50 years ago — Aug. 28, 1963. The piece aired recently on "CBS Sunday Morning":
It was about a year ago when George Raveling found himself in Oregon, sitting through a global sports marketing meeting at Nike's headquarters.
Raveling, the shoe company's director of international basketball, was part of a seminar on how make a better group presentation.
The model used as an example: Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have A Dream" speech.
"The woman explained to us how a speech had to create a clear vision," the former USC coach recalled. "From a leadership standpoint, you had to present that vision, and then show people how it would unfold – the strategy, the journey, the destination.
"She took us from the beginning of that speech and showed how Dr. King used his voice, his tone, going low at times, and then becoming more boisterous, how he could manipulate the audience's emotions as he spoke.
"It was all about getting people willing to follow that vision. She demonstrated how Dr. King took everyone to this 'promised land,' and showed them what it would look like."
One of Raveling's colleagues sitting close by leaned over to him.
"You're pretty familiar with all this, aren't you?" he asked.
"Yes," Raveling responded, "but I've never looked at it from this perspective."
That's probably because for the last five decades, Raveling's up-close perspective of that historic speech must have felt as if he was living his own kind of dream.
The fascinating story has been told many times before, but it still produces a goose-bump moment:
Raveling was not only present at the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom that took place 50 years ago. But, positioned just a few feet away from Dr. King as part of volunteer security duty, the 26-year-old Raveling asked for and was directly handed the three-page typed speech from Dr. King as he left the podium to end the day-long event of civil rights speakers.
"It was just an impulse reaction," Raveling, now 76, continues to explain it today. "I'd like to be able to say I had it all figured out, but . . . it's like hitting the lottery."
Raveling, a Washington D.C. native, was the assistant basketball coach at Villanova at the time, making the overnight trip from Wilmington, Del., with his friend, Warren Wilson. Both were recruited to work security, and Raveling ended up standing about eight people away to Dr. King's left.
The speech ended, the crowd on that sweltering day that has swelled to some 300,000 erupted, and Raveling said he simply walked up to Dr. King and asked: "Can I have that copy of the speech?"
King had just folded it and handed it to Raveling, and then turned his attention to a rabbi who congratulated him.
Raveling eventually stuck the papers into a personalized autographed copy of a Harry S Truman biography – "I knew if I put them there, I'd never get rid of that book," Raveling said.
But not until some 20 years later did he even recall that he had the documents, when a reporter asked if he'd been involved in the civil rights movement. Raveling said his wife didn't even know he had the speech until he remembered where he had tucked them away.
The reporter eventually framed the three pieces of paper and gave them to Raveling as a gift. But for most of the last 30 years, Raveling, who lives in the Ladera Heights area of L.A., has kept them in a local bank vault for safe keeping.
The pages show some wear but are otherwise clear. Where it was once stapled together in the top left corner, there is rust left showing.
The speech doesn't even have a title. And nowhere, it should be noted, are the words "I have a dream" anywhere in that text.
King, who gave a version of that "dream" speech in Detroit earlier in the year, apparently did not plan to use the phrase until he went off script. Many say King was encouraged to do so by gospel singer Mahalia Jackson, part of the entertainment for the festivities who stood nearby and yelled out: "Tell 'em about the dream, Martin."
So for a speech was only supposed to be four minutes, it ended up going 16 minutes, far longer than any other speaker that day. And it wasn't until afterward, when the day's key participants met with President John Kennedy at the White House, did Kennedy remark to King: "And you have a dream."
Several hundred copies of the speech King prepared were distributed to the media before it was delivered, but with a copyright stamp on them. Raveling's copy does not have that notation.
Several historians have authenticated Raveling's copy. King's handwriting does not appear on the documents, but an acquaintance of Raveling's who worked for the FBI had the organization also verify that King's fingerprints are on it. The only notation is one Raveling made on the third page, indicating where King diverted from the prepared words and went off on the "dream" verbiage.
So, then, what might these documents be worth?
"I never really think about that, because I'm not going to try to sell it, so why worry about it?" Raveling said. "Let the experts worry about that."
A recent USA Today story quoted a rare documents historian as claiming they could easily be valued in the $25 million price range.
Even with today's anniversary, Raveling doesn't plan to put them on public display today, mostly because of security and insurance reasons. He has also not decided where they might find a permanent home. If anywhere, he said, he'd like them to be somewhere in Washington D.C.
Raveling admits he is "oversensitive and uncomfortable" with the publicity that surrounds his ownership of the documents "because I don't want this to define me as a person."
In the years since it was revealed they were in his possession, Raveling has educated himself even more about the importance of that day, as many interview requests often come seeking his perspective, especially in the last month.
He'll cite recent facts he's learned about the "March on Washington" – how Kennedy tried to persuade King not to do the speech, but King said he had a "moral obligation" to deliver it. How it was only decided until very late that King , not A. Phillip Randolph, would speak last. He marvels at the photographs showing people in their Sunday best clothes that day, peaceful, hopeful, respectful of the moment.
"Really, no one realized the speech would take on this historic significance," admitted Raveling. "Here were are, 50 years later, still putting it into historical perspective.
"We've seen change – the most significant that you've got to believe would have pleased Dr. King is having a black person in the White House, which none of us thought we'd see in our lifetime. But at the same time, you'll see articles that point out the unemployment numbers for blacks in 1963 are almost equal to what they are today.
"Maybe we've taken some giant steps, but for every two forward, maybe we take one back. There's still a lot of work to be done as we move ahead."
As one of the most successful African-American coaches in college basketball history , Raveling compiled a 337-292 record from 1972-'94 with Iowa, Washington State and USC, with six NCAA Tournament appearances, including taking the 1991-92 Trojans (24-6) with Harold Minor to the second round before they were upset.
He was part of Bob Knight's coaching staff that led the 1984 U.S. Olympic basketball team to a gold medal at the L.A. Summer Games.
His coaching career ended abruptly when, at age 54, he was badly injured in a 1994 car accident, which led to a career as a TV analyst and then with Nike.
His career as a star player at Villanova and then in decades of coaching and public speaking has given him a profound podium of sorts to stay connected to the ideology of how sports and competition have clearly pushed Dr. King's vision of a "dream" society for the last five decades – and considering how 16 years prior to that was Jackie Robinson's breaking Major League Baseball's color barrier.
"Sports have always been a huge platform in America, because it affords a great entry point for the sociologically disadvantaged of all races," said Raveling.
"What sports fundamentally teach is that, once you step inside the boundaries, you learn to compete and play with whites, blacks, Latinos, Chinese. Once the whistle blows, you're no longer defined by race, but by your skills.
"It gets back to what Dr. King said, when he longed for the day when his children could live in a nation where they weren't judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. They'll come a time when we won't refer to people by race, just as American.
"It's incumbent for each of us – black or white or of any race – to understand we have a civic and social responsibility to our country, and we have to carve out a way to help fight and irradiate racial injustice in America. No one has to have same methodology."
Raveling's connection to the King speech become more important to keeping the dream alive as he encounters younger players today.
While attending the FIBA world under-19 championships in Prague last month, Raveling was asked by coach Billy Donovan to address the U.S. team before their title game against Serbia.
Raveling showed a video tape of an interview he did years ago about the King speech (see below), and used that to impress upon the players about their unique opportunity that very few Americans experience.
"I told them that your country is asking you to represent them, to make a sacrifice, to restore some prestige for U.S. basketball," Raveling said.
The Americans won, 82-68.
Next week, Raveling, the first African-American head basketball coach in Pac-12 (then Pac-8) history, will receive the John W. Bunn Lifetime Achievement Award from the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.
"George was a trailblazer in the college coaching profession, he took so much pride in educating his players not only about basketball, but also about life," said Jerry Colangelo, chairman of the Hall of Fame Board, in making the announcement.
Raveling was also named one of the 2013 recipients of the Lapchick Character Award – named after former St. John's and New York Knicks coach Joe Lapchick, recognizing those who have shown his character traits.
On his own "Coaching For Success" website – www.coachgeorgeraveling.com – Raveling posts probing interviews that he's done extracting insights from some of the game's top coaches. He often makes book recommendations. He frequently sends words of inspiration from his Twitter account.
One of his most recent: "Be the right person, in the right place, at the right time, doing the right thing with the right people!"
Fifty years ago today, Raveling was right on that.

Covering an area of 29.8 million square kilometers, Africa is the second largest
continent of the world. It is bordered northwards by the Mediterranean,
westwards by the Atlantic Ocean and eastwards by the Indian Ocean and the Red
Sea. It stretches some 8000 kilometers in length and has a maximum width of
7200 kilometers. The tallest peak in Africa, the Kilimanjaro, rises 5895 meters
above seal level. The largest rivers of the continent are the Congo, the Niger,
the Nile, and the Zambezi.
No recorded history of Africa existed before the arrival of the Europeans and
it was only during the nineteenth and early twentieth century that foreign
explorers, missionaries and anthropologists began recovering parts of this
continent's history.
The inhabitants of this continent are mainly derived from the Bantu ethnic
group, whose name literally means "people". The Bantu live mainly in southern
Nigeria, mid-ways in the lush valley of River Benue. The migration of Bantu
tribes paralleled that of animals moving towards eastern Africa, Sudan and
Somalia, and thence reached the tropical forests of this continent and
eventually its southern and western regions.
We set foot on the black continent; a continent torn by strife against foreign
colonial powers and hostilities between various tribes. European colonial
powers had invaded all the lands of this continent and taken its population
into slavery during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The eastern
countries of the continent, down to its southern tip, were British colonies.
Central Africa, including the Congo, belonged to Belgium. Northern and
northwestern Africa were administered by France. Angola, in western Africa,
belonged to Portugal.
The rise of liberation movements in Africa in fact coincided with Mr. Gandhi's
call on the Indian nation to overthrow their British rulers, which was heard
across the world. That was when the peoples of eastern Africa began their
struggle against British domination. Of course, the population of this
continent was fully justified in its struggle, but this made our exploration
very difficult and dangerous. The difficulties we met during our travel in
Africa were not limited to the cobweb of complicated
regulations in the continent's newborn countries. Many border passages were
closed and we occasionally had to cross them on the sly.
In many countries people were fighting against the white invaders and our white
skins actually put us in danger while traveling across the continent. We were
rejected by the white population of South Africa because of our Asian origins,
and the black population avoided us in reason of our white skin.
A fierce war having broken out in Zanzibar between two rival parties, we barely
escaped execution at the hands of the black population, who assumed we were
Arabs, whom they detested. We were eventually rescued by the British police and
managed to escape unhurt from Zanzibar. In order to reach northwestern Africa,
we had to pass through Angola, just when the 50,000-man-strong army of Angolan
freedom fighters established at Leopoldville under the direction of Holden
Roberto was at war with the Portuguese forces. The Portuguese set fire to
villages across the country in order to force them into exile in neighboring
countries. Being white-skinned, we were in constant danger of receiving the
same treatment as Portuguese soldiers. Other similar events occurred during our
travels across Africa.
Arriving from the Red Sea, we landed on Sudanese soil and proceeded to South
Africa via the continent's eastern countries and thereof to Angola and central
Africa, where we were able to study the life of pygmy tribes. We then moved
towards northwestern Africa and eventually crossed the Mauritanian desert and
part of the Sahara before reaching Europe.

Scientists and professionals in the biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical industries apply strict guidelines for good practices in drug manufacturing.
Also known as cGMP, the high standards require, at the very least, compliance with the strict regulations of state agencies such as the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The Federal government has also issued as minimum requirement compliance with quality and safety standards in drug manufacture. This includes standards in methods, facilities, and controls that are applied from the formulation to the packaging of the drug. Effective compliance techniques are essential in the development of safe, high quality pharmaceutical products.
There are various aspects of cGMP regulations, including the manufacturing operations, personnel and facilities, and laboratory validation. In assuring compliance with standards in Good Manufacturing Practice, it is essential that all managerial and laboratory professionals have a fundamental understanding of the basis of the regulations, as well as the conditions that necessitate them.
Drug manufacturing firms must have a quality control unit for each drug development project that guarantees consistency and adherence to specifications, set by the client firm and US law. During manufacture, records must be made manually or through instrumentation. Good documentation is an essential element of cGMP, as this assures the traceability of the complete history of a product batch, as well as the defined procedures in each phase of the production.
One of the basic marks of a reputable pharmaceutical manufacturing firm is the practice of good manufacturing standards. The firm must have staff and facilities that meet the highest levels of regulatory compliance, as well as the clients' quality assurance audits for drug manufacturing.

"AIDS Girl"
An Interview With Alora Gale
By Sam Folk-Williams
IN MANY RESPECTS, 21-year-old Alora Gale has grown up in what she calls an "average, middle-class, Caucasian family." She was born in San Diego, but she and her now 19-year-old brother, Mo, were raised primarily in the smaller towns of northern California: first in Grass Valley outside of Sacramento, then just outside Mendocino, in a 400-person town close to the coast. Today, Alora and her family live in Boulder, Colo.
When Alora was growing up, her mom was a graphic designer, and her father was a "jack of all trades" who usually ended up in various grade-school teaching positions. Her parents were both health-food nuts who raised their children in a conscientious, liberal manner. Until she was 6 years old, the only things Alora thought were unusual about her life were the fact that she had never been allowed to eat a candy bar and that her mom had to drive three towns over to find a suitable grocery store.
In 1992, when Alora was 6 years old, her mother, Linda Brosio, went with a group of girlfriends to get tested for HIV. Alora's mother was the only person to come back positive. Right away, Alora, Mo and her father Gary were all tested as well. Alora and Mo were both positive, but their father was negative. The day Alora was diagnosed, she recalls stoically, was her mother's birthday: March 17. Her mother died almost four years later, in November 1995; not long afterward, the family moved to Boulder, Colo., to be closer to the resources they would need to turn to for support.

Alora, 6, at her mother's 43rd birthday, also the day on which Alora and her brother Morgan (left) were diagnosed with HIV. Their mother had been diagnosed two weeks earlier, after she was tested with a group of friends. The Gales had no reason in the world to suspect their family could have been exposed to HIV. Up to this point they had been, in their words, an "average, middle-class, Caucasian family." Alora's mother passed away almost four years after this picture was taken, in November 1995 -- just before the advent of effective AIDS medications. Alora and her brother Mo are still going strong.
Alora can find a reason for optimism in just about any situation, and is understanding about the ignorance and fear she has seen in people unfamiliar with HIV. She recognizes that in a society often afraid to talk openly about anything related to sex, people can't help but be ignorant. So, she takes it upon herself to become educated about HIV and spread that knowledge the best way she can. She has been speaking to school groups about HIV/AIDS since she was in junior high school.
Alora's father has dedicated his career to providing access to information about pediatric AIDS through the nonprofit organization he founded, National Pediatric AIDS Network.
What was it that made your family decide you should all be tested for HIV?
My mother was in some kind of women's group, and one of the women there brought in an article about HIV one week, and they all thought they should go get tested. So the whole women's group went into a clinic together. All the other women came back negative and my mom came back positive. She didn't get tested because of any symptoms. At that point we were living in a really rural part of California and they never would have suspected it.
Can you tell me a little about your family at the time you were all tested and diagnosed?
If you look, now, at all the symptoms the three of us had when I was little, it would have been obvious; it would have been hard not to see. But, because we were your average, middle-class, Caucasian family, in rural California, who had never been IV-drug users or had a blood transfusion, no one would have thought.
You mention that the symptoms you, your mom and your brother shared seem obvious in retrospect. What were some of those symptoms?
My brother would have night sweats and really high temperatures. And there was no reason, he wasn't sick or anything. It was just classic night sweats. I would get pneumonia or bronchitis every winter. And I got MAC [mycobacterium avium complex] about a year before I was diagnosed. I was born in San Diego, and apparently MAC was common in children there because of something in the water. So they thought maybe that's why I had it. My mom would have hair loss and chronic fatigue. My brother was a chubby kid until he hit kindergarten, when he went from being that cute chubby little toddler to being a tiny little stick.
Does anyone have any idea why your dad remained negative?
Well, women are eight times more likely than men to become HIV positive, first off. I'm not so sure anymore, but for a long time they thought that some people might have a resistance gene against certain strains of the virus, and that he might have the resistance gene. That might also explain why my brother and I were healthy for so long. My dad's never participated in any studies or anything like that.
When you first found out that you were HIV positive, can you remember what kind of thoughts you had?

Alora and her father, Gary, in 2000.
When you were hit with that full realization in the seventh grade, do you remember what your thoughts were?
It meant that until a miracle cure occurred, I would be on medication, going to doctors and getting my blood drawn, and that I had to be careful with my blood. And, I probably would have to think a lot more about whether I could start a family. The entire ramifications hit me.
How have your feelings about what it means to be HIV positive changed since then?
It depends what point of my life I'm at as to what I think about it, and how much I think about it. Sometimes I'll go for a month just taking my meds as a daily routine and not even thinking about what they are for. And then sometimes I'll look at them and think, "Wow -- these are what's keeping me alive." Now I'm at a point where I look at the pills and think, "Yeah, these pills -- this fistful of pills -- are what's keeping me alive [laughter]." It's hard to describe. It was hard watching my mom die of the disease that I had, that I knew I had. I knew I could end up like her. It's hard having that realization at such a young age. It kind of changes your whole life. It really does.
