|Oracle® Fusion Middleware Fusion Developer's Guide for Oracle Application Development Framework
11g Release 1 (11.1.1)
action binding
A binding for command components, such as buttons or links, to built-in or custom methods on the data control, or to built-in collection-level operations (such as, Create, Delete, Next, or Previous). An action binding object encapsulates the details of how to invoke a method and what parameters (if any) the method is expecting.
A piece of work that is performed when an ADF Controller task flow runs, for example, a method call or view.
See Oracle ADF.
ADF binding filter
A servlet filter that ADF web applications use to preprocess any HTTP requests that may require access to the binding context.
ADF Business Components
A framework that simplifies the development, delivery, and customization of business applications for the Java 2 Platform. You use ADF Business Components to define associations between entity objects, view objects, and application modules to reflect the foreign keys present in the underlying tables.
ADF Controller layer
A mechanism that provides an enhanced navigation and state management model on top of JSF. This mechanism declaratively defines navigation using control flow rules.
ADF Faces Rich Client (RC)
A set of standard JSF components that include built-in AJAX functionality.
ADF Model layer
A layer that implements JSR-227 service abstraction called the data control.
application module
A transactional component that UI clients use to work with application data. It defines an updatable data model and top-level procedures and functions (called service methods) related to a logical unit of work. This unit of work is related to an end-user task.
binding context
A container object that holds a list of available data controls and data binding objects. The
DataBindings.cpx files define the binding context for the application.See also data control.
bounded task flow
A specialized form of ADF Controller task flow that has a single entry point and zero or more exit points. It contains its own set of private, control flow rules, activities, and managed beans. A bounded task flow allows reuse, parameters, transaction management, and reentry. When dropped on a page, it becomes a region.
control flow
An ADF Controller activity that enables navigation between other activities in an ADF task flow. The control flow links one activity to another in a task flow.
data control
XML configuration files that describe a service. At design time, visual tools like JDeveloper can leverage that metadata to UI component to be declaratively bound to an operation or data collection.
Data Controls panel
A panel in JDeveloper that lists all the data controls that have been created for the application's business services and exposes all the collections (row sets of data objects), methods, and built-in operations that are available for binding to UI components.
entity object
An object that represents a row in a database table and that simplifies modifying its data by handling all data manipulation language operations for you. Entity objects are ADF Business Components that provide the mapping to underlying data structures.
invoke action
An action that binds to a method that invokes the operations or methods defined in an action or a method action binding during any phase of the page lifecycle. See also action binding.
iterator binding
A binding to an iterator that iterates over view object collections. There is one iterator binding for each collection used on the page. All of the value bindings on the page must refer to an iterator binding in order for the component values to be populated with data at runtime.
Contrast with variable iterator and method iterator.
list of values (LOV)
See LOV.
Input components that allow a user to enter values by picking from a list that is generated by a query
An application server and Oracle relational database that keep metadata in these areas: a file-based repository data, dictionary tables (accessed by built-in functions) and a metadata registry. One of the primary uses of MDS is to store customizations and persisted personalization for Oracle applications
method iterator
A binding to an iterator that iterates over the collections returned by custom methods in the data control. An iterator binding that is always related to a method action binding object. The method action binding encapsulates the details about how to invoke the method and what parameters the method is expecting. The method action binding is itself bound to the method iterator, which provides the data.
Oracle ADF
An end-to-end application framework that builds on Java Platform, Enterprise Edition standards and open-source technologies to simplify and accelerate implementing service-oriented applications.
Oracle Application Development Framework (Oracle ADF)
See Oracle ADF.
Oracle Metadata Services (MDS)
See MDS.
page definition file
A file that defines the binding objects that populate the data in UI components at runtime. For every page that has ADF bindings, there must be a corresponding page definition file that defines the binding objects used by that page.
An ADF Controller UI component whose content is based on a task flow definition. When first rendered, the region's content is that of the first view activity in a task flow. See also activity.
task flow
A set of ADF Controller activities, control flow rules and managed beans that interact to allow a user to complete a task.
unbounded task flow
A set of activities, ADF control flow rules, and managed beans that interact to allow a user to complete a task. An unbounded task flow has a single point of entry.
value binding
A binding used by ADF view UI components that display data. Value bindings range from the most basic variety that work with a simple text field to more sophisticated list and tree bindings that support the additional needs of list, table, and tree UI controls.
value iterator
An ADF Model iterator pointing to a collection that contains only one data object whose attributes are the binding container variable. Contrast with method iterator and value iterator iterator.
variable iterator
A binding to an iterator that exposes all the variables in the binding container to the other bindings. While there is an iterator binding for each collection, there is only one variable iterator binding for all variables used on the page. Contrast with method iterator and value iterator iterator.
view accessor
An ADF Business Components object that points from an entity object attribute (or view object) to a destination view object or shared view instance in the same application workspace. The view accessor returns a row set that by default contains all the rows from the destination view object.

As Flash's ubiquity begins to erode, standards-based Web technologies are going to become the path forward for developers who want to offer a user experience that works across all screens. The HTML5 video element is already widely supported in modern Web browsers, but the capabilities and codecs that are available differ between implementations.
A new State of HTML5 Video document offers some clarity by painting a clear picture of the current status of standards-based video across the spectrum of browsers and mobile environments. The document was authored by LongTail Video, the company behind JW Player, a very popular video playback framework that supports Flash and HTML5.
Based on statistics from various browser marketshare trackers, LongTail says that two thirds of Internet users are running browsers that support HTML5. Support for standard HTML video element attributes is relatively consistent, though there are gaps: Android and iOS both lack support for the preload and autoplay attributes, for example.
Fullscreen playback and support for adaptive streaming are still highly limited. The latter will likely be remedied in the future as MPEG's DASH standard sees adoption. Codec compatibility is still a tricky issue—some browser vendors are standing behind H.264 while others favor Google's WebM.
LongTail says it will keep the document updated as the status of Web video evolves.

Peru's Ocucaje Desert is known as the most abundant repository of marine fossils on the planet. It's also a preferred destination for legions of sticky-fingered scavengers. Meet the man who has vowed to fight the fossil thieves.
Author Andy Isaacson Photography Andy Isaacson
IT'S DUSK BY THE TIME WE REACH Marker 340 on the Pan-American Highway, where it connects with an unpaved road penetrating the Ocucaje Desert. My guide, Roberto Penny Cabrera, turns off the highway here. After several miles he stops the jeep, backs up 50 feet, drives off in another direction, stops again, then wheels the vehicle in disorderly circles over the sand. Satisfied that he's thrown off anyone who might be trying to follow his tracks, Penny cuts the headlights and we continue on, in search of bones.
Paleontologists use a German word to describe lands like this barren stretch of Peru's southern coast: lagerstätte, or "resting place." A palimpsest of extinct and exotic marine animals—red-feathered mega-penguins, marine sloths, whales with legs—lies interred in a former seabed that rose when the Andes were squeezed out of the earth's crust 140 million years ago. Encompassing more than 7,000 square miles, Peru's southern desert contains what may be the richest trove of ocean fossils in the world, which has made it a target for rapacious collectors, unscrupulous scientists and legions of black marketeers.
Penny, who's been exploring this desert for three decades, has an unusually detailed understanding of what's out here (and, importantly, where it is), a knowledge that he believes brings great responsibility. "Whatever I have in my mind," he says, "I will take to my grave." Actually, this isn't 100 percent true: As a professional guide, Penny makes a living taking people on fossil tours. But he insists he is selective about what he reveals, and to whom.
For this trip, Penny is taking me, along with his 16-year-old son and protégé, Nicky, to some of his more accessible discoveries. "Fossils? Oh, you'll see thousands of fossils," Penny says in accented English, steering us up a darkened ridge in the jeep he calls Deborah. Then he switches on the headlights, illuminating the countless chalky skeletal fragments that litter the desert floor around us. "Bones, bones, bones."
We eventually reach a small plateau, and Penny swings the vehicle around with a flourish so that the headlights fall on a ghostly skull, over 6 feet long, half-buried and trailed by a string of vertebrae. "I'm not a scientist," he says, killing the engine. "I'm not going to give it a name. I don't care—it's a whale, that's all. But isn't it beautiful to see, here, in the ground?"
The whale skull is an awesome sight. But in the silence and the glare of halogen lights, the spectacle also takes on a creepy feel, like that of an ancient crime scene. Penny lights a cigarette. "Come on," he says. "Let's set up camp."
FOSSILS, PENNY TELLS ME, have a habit of going missing here. Part of the problem is that Peruvian conservation laws tend to be a little vague. It's lawful to gather fossils for personal collections but not to remove them from the country, which means, in effect, that half the smuggling process can be carried out in broad daylight. After that, all you need to do is sneak them across the border. Nobody knows the rate at which the Ocucaje's treasures are being ghosted out of Peru, but in 2010, agents at Lima's Jorge Chávez International Airport seized almost 2,000 cultural items protected by law, most of them fossils.
In light of what Penny sees as officials' indifference—to them, he says, "fossils are a business"—he has established himself as one of the most vocal critics of the government's track record on protecting fossils. But he's willing to go even further, sometimes taking matters into his own hands (he claims, for instance, to have collared a French paleontologist who'd been excavating without permission).
You get the sense that this cat-and-mouse game with fossil scavengers is something Penny rather enjoys—along with his image as a desert fox. When my bus arrived in the city of Ica the day before we set out, he approached wearing a safari shirt and fatigues, a long blade tucked into his belt and a cellphone strapped to his wrist. At 57, Penny is tan and sturdy, with blue eyes and a Burt Reynolds mustache. He shook my hand firmly and, seeing my surprise at his presence (I was supposed to call him from the station once I arrived), he explained that he'd had a hunch about what time my bus would get in, and even managed to guess the right gate. He took this as a good omen. "Look at these chicken bumps," he said, holding up an arm.
Penny descends from Capitán Doctor Gerónimo Luis de Cabrera y Toledo, a Spanish conquistador who founded Ica in 1563. He lives alone, occupying a single room in a semi-decrepit yellow mansion built on Ica's main square by his grandfather a century ago. His cluttered quarters resemble an archaeologist's lair: satellite maps on the wall, dusty glass cases containing skulls and teeth, a desktop strewn with rocks. There's also a teakettle, a mini fridge and a bedpan. On the balcony outside, he keeps a rope tied to the railing so he can make a quick escape in the event of an earthquake.
Penny doesn't put much stock in domestic comfort—he is most at home outdoors, living simply and quietly. Our first night we dine on ramen, which Nicky prepares, and beans straight from the can. (Even in the city, Penny rarely goes anywhere without beans in his vest pocket and a spoon around his neck.) I drink water to stay hydrated; Penny has a Coke. Reclining in a lawn chair, he lights another cigarette, and—appropriately in these surroundings—starts to ponder life.
Penny explains that he used to own a mining company, earning a good living extracting minerals used in fertilizer. But in the late 1990s, a bridge he relied on to move his product washed out in a flood, wrecking his business and, ultimately, his marriage. He turned to booze. The desert had always held an appeal for him—his mother brought him here as a kid—but during this difficult period he found peace here, and eventually sobered up. The Ocucaje, he says, saved his life.
BY 9 O'CLOCK THE NEXT MORNING, the sun is already raging, giving the landscape the flat brightness of another planet. "You see the ground?" Penny says as we scour an area he knows to be rich in shark teeth. "You're looking for a reflection. You need to see where wind has brushed. Then you look for plankton, and bones. When you find a bone, look closely. Maybe, just maybe, you find a tooth."
As I strain my eyes in search of a glint, I try to imagine the scene that might have played out here tens of millions of years ago. Maybe a seal was frolicking in the surf one Miocene afternoon, oblivious to an approaching shark, and then—snap! In the ensuing feast, the shark loses a tooth, which drifts down and buries itself in the sediment. I spot something pointy partially covered by rock bits and broken shells, browned but perfectly intact, maybe 2 inches long. I hold it up. "Found one!"
"Good," Penny says. "Find a few more of those little teeth, there's a good chance you'll find a megalodon." He's referring to Carcharodon megalodon, a prehistoric shark that measured 50 feet or more from snout to tail, with teeth up to 8 inches in length (though Penny claims to have uncovered a foot-long tooth once). "If I want to find a megalodon tooth, it takes me one day, two days. But I don't give up."
Moving deeper into the desert, Penny guides Deborah over steep dunes and into dun-colored valleys where the process of erosion has made neighbors of creatures that lived eons apart. At a burial ground dating back thousands of years, ossified human remains are strewn around the openings of looted graves. Scavengers have taken the valuable textiles, Penny says, and left the bones. "Who's the guard here taking care of this!" he shouts, incensed, as a braid of human hair flutters in the breeze.
PENNY HAS A BIT OF A TENDENCY to romanticize the pre-Columbian natives of this desert. "They were wise people, and kind to each other," he says that night by the campfire. His own family, he tells me, was torn apart by greed and materialism— and those traits are also driving today's lucrative black market in fossils.
Given the clamor for these relics and the absence of hard-and-fast rules in Peru, it can be tricky to distinguish the good guys from the bad. Penny sees himself as the desert's most ardent defender, but he isn't above slipping a tooth into his pocket from time to time. His personal policy is to never dig for fossils, but once they are unearthed naturally, he figures, they'll return to dust anyway—so it's either him or the elements. He also makes clear that he never sells the stuff he finds.
One thing's for sure, though: Penny's stance on fossil scavenging has made him some enemies. On the final day of my visit, we drive by a whale skeleton that Penny often visits. A nearby rock face has been etched with writing that slanders Penny by name, calling him "thief" and much worse.
Penny appears rattled by these insults; he is particularly upset that Nicky had to see them. We spend the next few hours looking for shark teeth, but something feels off. Penny's been to this area countless times, and he always comes across something. Today, after combing layer after layer of sedimentary rock, we find nothing. "Gypsum—it doesn't belong here," Penny says, pointing to a white powder on the ground. "[Poachers] put it around the fossils to help pull them up."
The midday heat is unbearable, so I seek shade in Deborah's passenger seat. But Penny insists on continuing the hunt: He's noticed whirlwinds sucking up sand on a nearby slope, and wants to investigate. Once there he cries out, holding up a palm-size rock the color of oxidized copper. He pulls out a compass and holds it over the rock. The needle goes haywire. "A meteorite!" he exclaims, doing a celebratory shuffle.
A few minutes later, walking back to the jeep, Nicky points. "Look, Papa!" Lying in plain sight on the coarse gray sand is a 3-inch megalodon tooth. Then Penny spots something else. Not 10 feet from the tooth is a motorcycle track—the mark of the scavenger. Somebody was here before us, and missed the tooth.
"It's perfect!" Penny cries. "It's like Mother Earth said at the last moment, OK, guys, this one's for you. You think it's a coincidence? Guy should have found it—look at the motorcycle!" His eyes become intense. "This is what blows my mind about this desert world," he says, throwing his hands to the sky. "Now, my son, compadre, you cannot take the smile off me all of the night!"

Melinda Deslatte: LSU offers few specifics for ticket price raise
LSU's athletic department has $11 million in reserves and stands to gain millions more in a new TV contract slated to begin next year. Despite the seemingly sound financial footing, Athletic Director Joe Alleva is asking for more money from fans.
Alleva told the university system's Board of Supervisors that LSU needs to boost sports ticket and parking prices to keep up with rising costs for salaries, benefits, travel and athlete scholarships, while also making needed upgrades to facilities.
Alleva is proposing 150 different changes to prices for tickets and parking across university sports events, including a ticket hike for the 2014 football season and for the 2015 baseball season.
His proposal would boost football season ticket prices on average by 6 percent next year, though 5,000 seats in Tiger Stadium would see a decrease. Ticket prices would vary depending on the opponent and demand for the game.
The proposal also would increase the costs of reserved car and RV parking places, would allow sales taxes to be charged on tickets and would raise prices across a list of athletic events.
The price hikes are estimated to raise about $2.3 million in the current 2013-14 budget year and grow to $4 million a year later, according to information provided to the LSU Board of Supervisors.
The board is expected to consider the ticket policy changes in December. Alleva made a presentation about the overall finances of his department to the board in October.
Nearly $62 million of the $101.5 million in annual revenue the athletic department expects to bring in for the 2013-14 budget year comes from ticket sales, "seat donations" that are required to buy some tickets, and parking payments.
The athletic department didn't outline a specific budget hole it was trying to fill with the increased ticket and parking revenue, instead generally saying that costs continue to rise.
When questioned by reporters about the department's finances and the need for ticket increases, Alleva got testy and offered few details about whether a budget shortfall exists.
"Our expenses have gone up $20 million in the last four years, so that's got to come from somewhere," he said.
The price hike request comes even as LSU is in line for a new multimillion-dollar annual payment for its participation in the SEC Network, a TV network set to launch next year.
LSU board member Stephen Perry, of New Orleans, said he's heard estimates that the university could bring in anywhere from $18 million to $28 million annually in the new TV deal.
Alleva said he didn't know what his department will earn from the new network, and he said money from the TV deal isn't calculated yet into the budget.
So why raise ticket costs if the athletic department doesn't know how much it stands to gain from a TV deal expected to be lucrative for the conference and its schools?
Alleva said without the increased prices for fans, his department would have to cut back on the money that it gives to the academics side of campus each year.
"We need the money to make the budget for next year, or we will be in the red and we will not be able to give the university $7 million," he said.
But when asked if the athletic department would face a $2 million budget gap if the price hikes didn't pass in December, Mark Ewing, chief financial officer for the athletic department, suggested the department had other options.
"We would find a way to cover it," Ewing said.
Alleva told the board that he'd like to use some of the increased funding generated by the SEC Network deal to build up the athletic department's reserves and pay down debt.
The price hikes seem on track to pass in some form. Board member Rolfe McCollister, of Baton Rouge, summed up his position with this assessment: LSU can charge more because people will pay it.
"We have a great product, and in free enterprise in America, when you've got a great product, you're rewarded and people buy your product," McCollister said.

There's a 20+ year difference
Between these two. And while Emmy Rossum is a Why Is if there ever was a Why Is, Demi was an It at the beginning and continues to be now, if for no other reason than her seemingly eternal beauty. I spoke to Demi briefly at TIFF. I have seen this up close. There are wrinkles. And it moves. And lines around the mouth, and for a minute I actually doubted if she's ever had any work done. Then I came to my senses in admiration. She and her surgeon are strategic, realistic, and very, very, smart. The result is, seriously, one of the best looking women of any age I have ever seen. Those triceps!
So this photo makes me laugh.
Because Rossum is just so irrelevant.
Here they are, Demi and Ashton, at the GQ Gentleman's Ball in New York last night.
Time for a new installment of Would You Rather Rossum.
Remember, Would You Rather Rossum is the game of Sh-t vs Diarrhea. It's meant to be a struggle.
Would You Rather:
Be friends with Emmy Rossum's sickening sugar Rossum?
Be photographed standing in line for 10 hours with Twi-Hards wearing Bella Swan themed clothing while waiting for the premiere of New Moon?
Choose wisely.

Should you ever run an Ad without seeing it
It seems like a simple question. Always make sure you are the final on your ad. No one knows your business like you. Never give blanket permission for an ad to be published without seeing it. EVER. If the ad that is being created is unsightly or appears to be ineffective, you may have to make the decision between a poorly produced ad being conjured up at the last minute and giving up your space. Don't run a poor ad. Even if it is cheap to run, this means you will only lose less money. There is nothing worse in advertising then an ad that loses money. Remember, this could be in the hands of people for a long time. If it is published on the internet it could be forever. Click here for the full article.

FARMINGTON — A local woman accused of having been involved in burglaries of multiple homes in March was indicted on two counts of receiving stolen property last month.
The grand jury indictment alleges that on March 11, Jacqueline Meyer, 45, retained four concert tickets, as well as a laptop computer, silver napkin holders, and a silver spoon, while believing those items had been stolen.
All of those items, valued at more than $2,000, had allegedly been stolen from two different people.
Meyer was also indicted on a separate receiving stolen property charge, and three counts of drug possession, in July, in connection to her arrest on March 11.
Meyer's charges came after police responded to a burglary on Washington Street on March 11, when a woman called police and said a man had kicked the door to her home and fled after she yelled down the stairs.
The burglary suspect, later identified by police to be Ryan Feeney, 36, of Farmington, was found to be in a car driven by Meyer after police set up a perimeter in the area. Feeney already had an active arrest warrant on a receiving stolen property charge at the time.
After Feeney was taken into custody, and officers were speaking with Meyer, two more residents reported burglaries, from another home on Washington Street and a home on Jackson Street.
Meyer was found to be in possession of several items, including jewelry, described to be missing from the burglarized homes, and was taken into custody on the drug charges and receiving stolen property charges. That same day, Feeney was charged with two counts of burglary and one count of receiving stolen property.
Each of Meyer's receiving stolen property charges, as well as drug possession charges, are Class B felonies, carrying a maximum sentence of 31⁄2 to 7 years in prison.
An indictment is not an indication of guilt; rather, it means a jury found sufficient evidence to warrant a trial.

The eligibility criterion for wbcs is to have a FULL TIME graduate degree from a recognised university.
It is an universal truth that any engineering stream should not be taken as one of the optionals in wbcs as none would have found at least the previous papers for it to get prepared.So it is advised to take anthro or socio as one of the optionals and select another optional depending upon the interest on that subject,availability of books, is the subject scoring enough or not... .One would advice to take history/psychology/geography as another optional.History is a good and also scoring subject. So one can have it.

An Air Force report that cites pilot error in a fatal F-22 crash "was not supported by the facts," the Pentagon Inspector General's Office announced Monday.
The crash in Alaska claimed the life of pilot Jeff Haney. It also sparked a lawsuit against the aircraft's manufacturer and reverberated throughout the tightly knit F-22 community, which includes pilots at Langley Air Force Base in Hampton.
Haney crashed in the Alaskan wilderness toward the end of a routine training mission on Nov. 16, 2010 after something cut off his oxygen supply. An Air Force investigation later blamed the crash on Haney's "failure to recognize and initiate a timely dive recovery due to channelized attention, breakdown of visual scan and unrecognized spatial distortion."
The Inspector General had this to say about that conclusion:
"The AIB (Aircraft Accident Investigation Board) does not clearly explain the interrelationship and how it is possible that all three factors concurrently caused the mishap. Failure to adequately explain this relationship calls into question the AIB Statement of Opinion regarding the cause of the mishap."
The IG's report was posted on its website Monday.
About six months after Haney's crash, the Air Force grounded its entire fleet of F-22 Raptors, the most advanced U.S. fighter, when concerns about the oxygen supply system led to a broader examination of the aircraft. A small number of F-22 pilots reported symptoms of oxygen deprivation, or hypoxia, for which the Air Force could not find the cause.
The issue reached a public crescendo last year when two Virginia Air National Guard pilots from Langley told "60 Minutes" they were not comfortable flying the aircraft, even though they believed in it.
Investigators now believe they have solved the problem, and the Air Force has not logged a case of unexplained hypoxia since last March.
The IG report faulted the Air Force's accident probe in other ways as well. Specifically:
The Air Force said Haney's mask "was in the full up position" throughout the accident sequence, but that finding was not adequately supported. This "precluded the analysis of other potential causes of the mishap." This calls into question the report's findings.
The report does not fully analyze various human factors "such as hypoxia, gravity-induced loss of consciousness and sudden incapacitation."
The report lists 109 references in its summary of facts, and 60 were either incorrect or did not direct the reader to the right information.
In its response, the Air Force agreed that the report could have been written more clearly. But the service stuck by its conclusions.
It said the Statement of Opinion "regarding the cause of the mishap was supported by clear and convincing evidence and (the investigative board president) exhausted all available leads."
The crash prompted a lawsuit by the pilot's widow, who claimed that the aircraft was defective. Anna Haney sued Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Honeywell International and Pratt and Whitney.
Defense contractors settled the suit in August 2012. Terms were not disclosed.

JOINT BASE ANDREWS, Md. -- The 56th presidential inauguration, held January 20, 2009, set a record attendance for any event held in Washington D.C., and was one of the most-observed events ever by the global audience. With well over 1 million attendees just four years ago, preparations for the 57th presidential inauguration have taken a considerable effort from a wide variety of sources, both military and civilian. The Air Force's 79th Medical Wing has been an important part of that process, with both a medical and ceremonial mission.
During inaugural preparations, the 79th MDW works with its Army and Navy partners to be fully engaged with Joint Task Force National Capital Region-Medical. Its mission is to deliver world-class health care throughout the National Capital Region. As such, it's only fitting that the 79th MDW be a big part of the medical support needed at the 57th presidential inauguration.
"My hope is that we'll have a nice quiet day and that everything goes smoothly," said Col. Christopher Scharenbrock, an emergency medicine physician with the wing, and a team lead for one of the medical support teams that will be placed along the parade route. "We hope that we don't have to, but if we do we are prepared to give the best care possible."
The wing will have several teams along the parade route ready to provide care for anyone who may suffer injury during the parade, or inauguration ceremony. In addition, the wing will have several Airmen participating in the ceremonial cordon, which will maintain a line between the crowd and parade, and render a salute as President Barrack Obama drives by. The organization of these Airmen fell to Maj. Jennifer Lavergne, the chief of medical readiness for the 79th MDW.
"Planning this event takes a lot of patience and a positive attitude," Lavergne said. "The closer to the event, the higher the stress. You have to be a wingman and keep everything in perspective."
Lavergne, despite what she says are a "million changes" that have occurred throughout the organization process, has not lost sight of the importance of her role in this historic event.
"It's amazing to have been selected to have this sort of responsibility in bringing people together, organizing, training, and making sure they are equipped to carry out their mission ... for someone to have that confidence and ask you to do this, that's another reason why its special, to be entrusted with that responsibility."
Beyond organization, Sharenbrock says it is also important for the teams to train. He said training has been an ongoing process, and to be a part of the inauguration day team, each person is required to have advanced trauma life support training. Sharenbrock will be his team's instructor.
"The training is similar to the training that I provide in deployed environments," said Sharenbrock, who has provided training in several deployed locations. "I'm very confident we will be ready for the mission."
Those who have been selected to participate in the inauguration are working hard to ensure they represent the Air Force in a way that is consistent with the values and traditions that have been in place since the Air Force's inception. This includes members of the cordon team, who are preparing to show the military precision that is taught throughout any military career.
"This is the pinnacle of all those parade practices we've done since basic training, and drill and retreat at the (NCO) academy," said Senior Master Sgt. Mary Martin, the flight chief for laboratory and pathology services, and member of the cordon team. "Now here it is in live full effect; we are actually a part of the cordon team for the president of the United States, our commander and chief; how exciting is that?"
The cordon team has been through numerous uniform inspections and rehearsals to ensure they are ready and looking sharp come inauguration day. Members of the team know their family and friends will be watching, the experience of which, is truly an honor, cordon team members said.
"I've never been a part of something so prestigious -- so historical," said Airman 1st Class Joseph Carter, a member of the cordon team, and public a health technician with the79th MDW. "To be a part of something this big is an honor -- it's really a blessing,"
Carter is excited that his little brother will be watching the inauguration from his hometown in Florida, knowing that he is a part of the ceremony.
"I feel like he looks up to me a lot, and I'm proud to be a part of this to give him inspiration for his journey through life," Carter said.
Both the medical and cordon teams are excited and somewhat nervous to participate in the ceremony.
"I'm nervous but it's a good nervous," said Tech. Sgt. Brandi Gallaher, a medical laboratory technician with the 79th MDW, and member of the cordon team.. "It's like when you watch a football game, and they play the national anthem. and the hair stands up on your arm. "
The members of the 79th MDW are excited and honored to be a part of this prestigious and historic ceremony. They have been training hard, and have been well prepared for the task at hand. They are confident they will represent the Air Force well.
"This is an event that involves our commander and chief and to be part of that history is something that cannot be explained in words," Lavergne said. "Amazing does not do it justice."

John Key's forced labour private prison corporate gulags
One of the most chilling aspects of John Key's state of the nation is his desire to vastly expand his private prison corporate gulags. Thanks to earlier changes by this Government, any prisoner not willing to work 40 hours per week for private prisons will not be eligible for parole. This isn't about job training or rehabilitation, these are forced labour camps.
Have we gotten to such an insane position thanks to Garth McVicar, the Sensible Sentencing Trust and a mainstream media who myopically focus on crime porn to boost ratings that we will all willingly allow forced labour camps to happen on our watch? Is this the worst example of hate and anger belong allowed to warp social policy?
By 2014 NZ will have the highest percentage of prisoners in private prisons than any other country on the planet. These prisoners will be forced to work for the profit margins of private prisons.
It seems the only employment the 270 000 children in poverty and the 7.3% unemployed can look forward to is the 40 hours they will be forced to work in John Key's corporate gulags. We have the 6th worst incarceration rate in the world, now there is a profit motive for forced labour from these private prisons, expect our incarceration rate to rocket up even higher.
Forced labour private prison corporate gulags are an abomination, and it's an abomination we are allowing on our watch. This is evil, it's as simple as that.
Sleepy hobbits reap what they sow.

LCA, distal outcome and moderation
Mplus Discussion
Latent Variable Mixture Modeling
Bonamy Oliver
posted on Thursday, March 17, 2011 - 2:07 am
I have run LCA for a number of risk factors with best fit 5 classes. Now I want to know whether a particular risk factor (used in the LCA) better predicts distal outcome X in and of itself, or only when it occurs within the context of the other risks that fall into its LCA class. Does that make sense?
That is, let's say the LCA is by Var1-Var15, and that Vars1-5 come together to C1. Now I want to know if:
Var1 predicts distal outcome X better within the context of Vars2-5 (ie. within C1) than it does alone.
Is that possible? I have saved the data and made myself a file (weighted by probs), but if I look at Var1 predicting outcome moderated by LCA I am surely getting into multicoll problems. So I figure I need to build it into the MPlus model some how.
Can you help?!
Many thanks
Linda K. Muthen

You can regress the distal outcome on one latent class indicator, for example,
x ON var1;

Thanks Linda.
My impression is that doing what you suggest would tell me the prediction from the indicator to the distal outcome (and that I could constrain/unconstrain it to be equal or not for different classes) but not quite answer my question. That is, what I really want to know is whether the predictor has a greater prediction as a function of the probability of it occurring with the other risks in the class than it does alone. An example might help, it's hard to write down!
So, say I have lots of risk factors and I find a class (C) that includes higher probability of poverty and divorce...and that C predicts the outcome, depression. What I want to find out is statistically whether poverty predicts depression per se, or better in the context of divorce (i.e. within C). I kind of want to see whether C moderates the impact of poverty on depression, but of course I can't do that because poverty is part of how C is estimated...
I have a feeling I'm missing something obvious!
Many thanks,
Bengt O. Muthen

I think it would be hard to use a mixture model to estimate if poverty predicts depression better in the context of divorce than alone. But regressing depression on poverty, possibly with class-varying slopes, does tell you if poverty has an influence on depression over and above that of class membership.
A totally different alternative is to skip the mixture part and simply work with interactions among poverty, divorce etc in their prediction of depresssion.

Complete NCAA Division I Women's Basketball Championship Bracket About 25 hours after wrapping up its 14th Big South Conference title, the Liberty women's basketball team found out when and where it will be playing next. The Lady Flames are seeded No. 16 in the NCAA Division I Women's Basketball Championship's Raleigh regional and will play at No. 1 seed Notre Dame, Sunday in Notre Dame, Ind. Notre Dame's home court, the Purcell Pavilion at the Joyce Center, will be the venue for two first-round contests on Sunday and a second-round matchup next Tuesday. No. 8 seed California (24-9, 13-5 Pac-12) will square off with No. 9 seed Iowa (19-11, 11-5 Big 10) during Sunday's opening game at 12:10 p.m. The Liberty-Notre Dame game will follow at approximately 2:40 p.m. Both games will be televised on ESPN2 by the announcing duo of Dave O'Brien and Doris Burke. Sunday's two victors will square off next Tuesday in a second-round clash, with a spot in the Sweet 16 on the line. Tipoff time Tuesday is set for 7 p.m., and the winner will advance to play at the RBC Center in Raleigh, N.C., March 25 and 27. The Lady Flames (24-8, 16-2 Big South) earned their 14th trip to the NCAA Division I Women's Basketball Championship in the last 16 years with a come-from-behind 81-73 victory over host High Point in Sunday afternoon's title game of the Big South Women's Basketball Championship. Liberty enters the NCAA Tournament on a roll, having won seven straight games and 18 of its last 19 contests. Head coach Carey Green's Lady Flames are seeded No. 16 for the third time in program history, but the first since 1998. That year, the 28-0 Lady Flames lost at eventual national champion Tennessee in the opening round. Liberty has been led by the duo of 6-3 redshirt senior center Avery Warley (13.1 ppg, 11.6 rpg) and 5-10 redshirt junior guard/forward Devon Brown (16.9 ppg, 7.1 rpg) this season. Both players were first team All-Big South honorees and made the Big South All-Tournament Team. Warley was tabbed MVP of the Big South Championship, after averaging 17.0 ppg and 15.7 rpg in Liberty's trio of victories. Notre Dame (30-3, 15-1 BIG EAST) captured its first-ever BIG EAST regular-season title this season, before losing to Connecticut, 63-54, in the championship game of the BIG EAST Tournament. Coached by Muffet McGraw, the Fighting Irish advanced to the national championship game of the 2011 NCAA Division I Women's Basketball Championship before losing to Texas A&M. The Notre Dame lineup is highlighted by the trio of 5-9 junior guard Skylar Diggins (17.0 ppg, 5.7 apg), 5-11 senior guard Natalie Novosel (15.0 ppg) and 6-2 redshirt senior forward Devereaux Peters (12.2 ppg, 9.4 rpg). All three players made the All-BIG EAST first team, with Diggins being tabbed BIG EAST Player of the Year and Peters earning BIG EAST Defensive Player of the Year honors for the second consecutive season. Liberty and Notre Dame have faced one another twice on the hardwood, with the Fighting Irish coming away with a pair of victories. Sunday's game will mark the first time the two teams have played at Notre Dame, as the previous contests both occurred during neutral-site tournaments. The Lady Flames' most recent game against the Fighting Irish happened on Dec. 5, 1999, in Green's fifth game as Liberty's head coach. Notre Dame defeated the Lady Flames by an 85-68 score in the championship tilt of the Wachovia Women's Invitational in Richmond, Va. Kelley (Siemon) Deyo, who was later an assistant coach at Liberty for four seasons (2003-07), was a junior forward on that Notre Dame squad. Liberty is 1-2 versus BIG EAST opponents in the NCAA Division I Women's Basketball Championship. The Lady Flames defeated DePaul in the second round in 2005, while dropping first-round contests to DePaul (2006) and Louisville (2009).

Kentucky USA native Dawn Landes would probably strain to convince you her music is anything but what it actually is. Recently she covered, with the aid of three kazoo players, Peter Bjorn & John's incessantly catchy_ 'Young Folks'_, and her press releases scream descriptives like 'anti-folk' and comparisons to artists such as Midlake and Shannon Wright. On record her output is much simpler and much more restrained than any of this would have you believe. Not that this is a bad thing, mind.
For Fireproof is a reassured, if slightly top-heavy, sophomore album (albeit the first to be released on these shores) that softly treads on the grounds of modern country and folk, almost free throughout of derivative gambits. Opener 'Bodyguard' sets the tone, with plucked strings and reverb-soaked guitars setting a hazy background for Dawn's meandering vocals. Perhaps inevitably, Norah Jones and Cat Power are strong points of reference, but Dawn rises above mere imitation.
On 'Twilight' and 'Private Little Hell' Landes' slows down the tempo further, with bottleneck steel guitar swoops fading in and out of audibility carelessly. 'Private Little Hell' is eerily reminiscent of Low circa Things We Lost In The Fire, if a little more rustic and a little less focused.
Unfortunately the following track 'The Picture Show', an ill-advised attempt at light-relief that The Fiery Furnaces would balk at, ruins the mood and the pace of the album and, with the exception of 'I'm In Love With The Night', Landes finds it difficult to recapture the atmosphere of the first half of the record. Yet at its most intimate and the furthest point from forced gimmickry, Dawn Landes' take on the country template is refreshing in its simplicity.

Enterprise applications can be tailored to specific jobs and work processes within your company. Your business can deploy BlackBerry 10 applications for your employees through BlackBerry World for Work and manage them securely with BlackBerry Enterprise Service 10 (BES 10).
Increase customer satisfaction
To keep customers satisfied, businesses must adopt an effective framework for internal communication. More specifically, customer-facing employees must have real-time access to critical information in order to accurately assist customers. With the new user experience of BlackBerry 10, your employees will be able to access information in an effective, intuitive manner. In addition, tools for the BlackBerry 10 platform such as HTML5 WebWorks make it easy to develop custom applications for customers to interact with your company.
Reduce staffing costs with global technical support

It's our global enterprise support program that provides businesses with affordable technical support directly from BlackBerry support experts. For BlackBerry 10, we've streamlined the program into three tiers – Basic, Advantage, and Premium – as well as offering BlackBerry 10 Readiness Services. With direct access to a Support Service Specialist as an option at the Advantage tier, you can reduce internal staffing costs while still equipping your business with the technical support you need.
Provide access to critical business information
Whether you are making a presentation, joining a meeting, or making a business decision, it is important to be prepared and well-informed. BlackBerry 10 provides hands-on access to industry news and other business content, mobilizing your workforce with tools to work effectively on the go. With the SAP applications that are coming to BlackBerry 10, your employees will be able to make informed decisions by accessing and interacting with the latest data available.
Simplify your IT manager's job
Your IT manager faces a mobile landscape that is constantly evolving toward greater complexity. As demands from business users increase, your IT department will need to properly balance mobility and security needs. BlackBerry 10 introduces a mobile platform that meets both the consumer demands of business users and the security demands of IT departments. In addition, BlackBerry Enterprise Service 10 (BES 10) simplifies your IT manager's job with a single, unified platform to manage BlackBerry, iOS and Android devices securely.
