The Utah Voluntary Cleanup Program (VCP) was created to promote the voluntary cleanup of contaminated sites and encourage redevelopment of Brownfields and other impacted properties through a streamlined cleanup program. The VCP has been a success, providing communities and businesses with an avenue to partner with DEQ to implement solutions for difficult environmental challenges on contaminated properties. This program protects public health and the environment and helps return impacted properties to beneficial reuse, which creates new economic opportunities for affected communities.
Success Story: Alta Gateway
The Alta Gateway Voluntary Cleanup Program (VCP) site is located in the Gateway District of Salt Lake City. The property was first developed in approximately 1910 and was used for various commercial purposes. However, over time, the property fell into a state of disrepair, creating uncertainty regarding the current environmental conditions and future redevelopment opportunities.
To address this site, a VCP application was submitted by a private developer. Remedial action commenced upon completion of the site characterization. As part of the remedy, soil contamination (consisting of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and metals) was removed to approximately eight feet below ground surface across the entire site and disposed of at a permitted facility. Confirmation samples were collected after the removal to verify the cleanup goals were achieved. To ensure protectiveness for the future development, a vapor barrier was installed during construction of the apartments.
Today, the site has been closed under the VCP and is now a thriving, transit-oriented residential development helping revitalize this portion of downtown Salt Lake City.
Success Story: Richmond City Swaps an Old Gas Station for a City Park
A team from DERR worked with Richmond City on a Brownfields redevelopment project on an old gas station. The City requested assistance from the Division for the site investigation and removal of the underground storage tank (UST) so the City could develop the property. In addition to coordinating the project, DERR funded a Targeted Brownfields assessment to help gather current information on the property.
After completion of the investigation and removal of the tank, DERR issued a “No Further Action” letter allowing the city to proceed with redeveloping the property as part of the existing city park.
Success Story: Ogden Business Exchange VCP Site
The historic Ogden Stockyards were established approximately 1905. Over the course of time, millions of head of livestock passed through the facility. The stockyards were eventually closed in 1971, and the property was used for various other purposes. Storage of drums, containers, engines, vehicles, scrap piles, and railroad ties created a significant amount of environmental uncertainty that became an impediment to redevelopment efforts.
Ogden City used funding from an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Brownfields Community-Wide Assessment grant to perform a Phase II Site Assessment at the property. The assessment provided information the city needed to apply for an Enforceable Written Assurance (EWA) from DEQ to facilitate cleanup and redevelopment.
A Reasonable Step as part of the EWA was for the city to complete response actions under the Voluntary Cleanup Program (VCP) (32 KB), so Ogden applied to the VCP in July 2014. To assist the city, the cleanup was phased, and field work commenced on Phase 1 after a cleanup plan was developed and a public comment period completed. Upon completion of the work, a No Further Action letter (12 MB) was issued. This allowed construction of a new commercial facility that was completed in 2016. Fieldwork on other portions of the site was also completed and a site-wide Certificate of Completion was issued in February 2018.
The property is currently being developed, and Ogden City is working to transform this once blighted 50-acre site into the Ogden Business Exchange. Minutes from downtown, the new business park will not only provide a new tax base for the city but a recreation destination as well.

Kerry 2-9 : Donegal 0-12, Croke Park
It might not be the most star-studded Kerry team to win an All-Ireland title but that will not bother the men from the Kingdom in the slightest. Éamonn Fitzmaurice will deservedly take much of the credit for turning this young Kerry side into champions, something Kieran Donaghy was happy to point out to Joe Brolly during an interview after the final whistle.
The match will certainly not be remembered as a classic. Many star players on both sides failed to shine on a day where defensive systems came to the fore. For a long while it looked as though Kerry had kicked the game away as they squandered chance after chance in both halves, but in the end Donegal struggled to get out of 1st gear for large parts of the game and Kerry were just about worth their victory.
From the beginning, Kerry virtually copied Donegal’s tactics of keeping many men behind the ball and counter-attacking. Kerry got off to the perfect start. Stephen O’Brien’s weak effort at the posts dropped short on the square, Paul Geaney won the tustle for possession with Paddy McGrath and turned sharply to expertly guide the ball in the corner of the net passed Donegal goalkeeper Paul Durcan. Geaney then set up Kieran Donaghy for a point after a Johnny Buckley effort came back off the post to make it 1-1 to 0-0.
Kerry failed to capitalise on this early advantage and Donegal slowly settled into the game. The Ulster champions were struggling to create scoring opportunities from open play with Kerry filing large numbers behind the ball. Michael Murphy slotted 3 free kicks and Colm McFadden added another to haul Donegal back into contention.
Donegal finally found a gap in the Kerry defence after 25 minutes when Darach O’Connor was sent through on goal by Rory Kavanagh but his rushed attempt glanced of the Kerry goalkeeper’s leg before being helped wide by a Kerry back. The referee and umpires somehow managed to miss this blatant 45 and awarded Kerry a goal-kick.
By this stage, the early free-flowing tempo had died down and the quality of football from both teams was nothing short of awful. Kerry were becoming wasteful in possession and their forwards lacked confidence in front of the posts, often opting to lob aimless balls down in front of the Donegal goal. Geaney had a chance to snatch another goal but he lost his composure after stepping inside the Donegal defence nicely before blazing a left-footed effort over the bar from close range.
Donegal responded with their most dominant period of the game. Karl Lacey began to dictate proceedings for Donegal and finished off a fine move to register Donegal’s first point from open play. Odhrán Mac Niallais added another moments later to leave the sides level at the interval.
Despite his side struggling to find their rhythm, Jim McGuinness would have been the happier of the two managers at the break. Éamonn Fitzmaurice would have been disappointed that his side never managed to push on from their early lead.
Michael Murphy kicked an impressive score from distance after the restart to give Donegal the lead for the first, and what would ultimately be the last time, in the match. The Donegal captain was being tightly monitored by the experienced Aidan O’Mahony and was not being allowed to influence the game as Donegal would have liked. Paul Murphy responded for the Kingdom with an inspirational score to level the game once again. Kerry could have gone out of sight at this stage but for some wayward shooting. Anthony Maher, Paul Geaney and Donnchadh Walsh all saw efforts fail to hit the target.
In such a tight contest mistakes were always going to be costly and the turning point in the game came from a sloppy error. Paul Durcan lost his concentration from a Donegal kick-out and passed the ball straight to Kieran Donaghy who used all his experience to guide home Kerry’s second goal of the day. Only Durcan will know how he managed to miss the 6 ft 5 giant standing in front of him. Despite what Jim McGuinness said in his post-match interview, this would prove the deciding factor of the game. Donegal responded almost immediately with three scores. Paddy McBrearty was brought off the bench and scored twice, which asks the question of whether or not he should have started. Neil McGee then charged up the field from full-back to fire over a fine score but Donegal failed to draw level again. Brian Sheehan was introduced in the dying moments and held his nerve to slot over a free for the Kingdom. Despite never finding their usual pattern of play Donegal could have sneaked a draw right at the death. Michael Murphy charged through several Kerry backs before his blocked shot dropped to Colm McFadden who punched the ball off the bottom of the posts and with that the game was over.
It was a great day all-round for the people of Kerry. Their minors defeated Donegal in the early match to claim their first minor title in 20 years. Winning a minor and senior All-Ireland title is a fine achievement. It was an emotional day for Colm Cooper who watched from the stands. It could well have been the worst Kerry team to win an All-Ireland, which might make this their sweetest victory of all.

By Matt Kindt, Clayton Crain
The “Summer of 4001 A.D.” continues with the second installment in the event series that centers on the battle between humanity and sentient artificial intelligence. This is a solid book that continues the urgency from the first and sets up even higher stakes for the next.
The story doesn’t miss a beat from the last issue, picking up right at the cliffhanger. If you are new to this event, be sure to pick up the first issue. It has an excellent prologue that covers all of the important points a new reader needs to know. This book also offers a prologue, though this time out we are given a different perspective – an explanation as to why New Japan is in orbit and the impact this has had on the Earth.
The battle is furious between the calculating Father and Rai. Since this is only book two in a four book event, the battle is not yet resolved. There’s a bit of a chess game afoot. Writer Matt Kindt throws a few surprises at his characters that moves both the battle and the plot along. It should be mentioned that despite the advanced and imaginative technology at play in this story, it never feels implausible. This works to the readers’ benefit, helping to keep them absorbed in the story. Kindt delivers a story that feels both urgent yet seems to be holding back a secret.
While the technology of this advanced society is center stage, it is humanity that shines in this story. Kindt does a fine job of reminding the reader what is at stake. Lemur and Lula each have a poignant scene that drives this home.
Clayton Crain brings the book to life with his fluid art. His interpretation of the script, from the energy of his characters’ lines to the vibrancy of the colors, reinforces the concept of the high-tech New Japan. The panel flow of the story works well, guiding the reader naturally. His characters perform admirably, physically reacting to the story as expected. Even the A.I. elements carry a psychological impact that resonates with the reader. Overall, this is beautiful work. The only quibbles are with a few of the space battle scenes where it was harder to interpret what was happening with the X-O armor. This was minor and not enough to distract the reader. You would be hard-pressed to find another artist better suited to this series.
The “Summer of 4001 A.D.” is marching on. 4001 A.D. #2 fans that flame and is a sure pick of the week. If you read only one series this summer, 4001 A.D. should be it.

Shadowing a DoctorNovember 11, 2013
Nothing can beat the excitement of receiving an invitation for a medical school interview. The medical school interview is a crucial step in your application acceptance and you will want to be as prepared as you can be so you ace it. The first thing you need to do towards your prep work is to be aware of the kind of questions you will be asked so you can prepare the most appropriate answers.
Stay On Top Of Current Healthcare Topics In The News
Here are some of the common questions that most interviews ask med school applicants on current healthcare issues:
- How can you deal with rising healthcare costs?
- How can you make a change to the healthcare system?
- What changes do you think will come about in the healthcare field over the next decade?
- What is your opinion about the government’s role in healthcare?
- What do you understand about the Affordable Care Act?
These are the questions that you should be prepared to answer. Healthcare and reform are the two main topics that you will be questioned about and the interviewers will want to know what your opinions are. It is very important for students as well as doctors to be up to date with current issues and topics in the medical field and also about any changes that might occur in the immediate future.
It is critical for you to understand how important all these questions are. With your answers, the interviewers will want to know what you know about medicine and also the other relevant issues related to the healthcare domain. Sometimes you might also be asked to discuss certain controversial situations and issues that are related to professionalism and ethics. It is important to be aware of current debates and issues in the medical field.
What Interviewers Look For In the Applicants
The interviewers will be looking for:
- Depth of knowledge
- General understanding
- An ability to defend their rationale around healthcare
The Judgement Game
Though the interviewers will be judging you on many fronts, they do not expect you to be on top of every topic and issue. However, these questions allow the interviewers to gauge how aware you are about the world around you and all the relevant current topics.
Changes in the healthcare system also affect the manner in which practitioners operate. Interviewers are definitely looking for able and competent applicants but they also want people who are street smart, able to think on their feet and have a certain amount of flexibility.
Medical schools want students who will be able to seek solutions to the problems that the healthcare industry is facing or might face in the future. They want to see candidates who are able to diagnose and treat issues in the system as much as they want brilliant doctors.
The idea being that medical care is not only about the operating table or bedside care. It encompasses a lot of other factors and awareness about those factors is all –important. Acing the medical school interview is about understanding how to field these questions and creating a certain amount of credibility.

To eliminate the pockets that form under the eyes, there are aesthetic procedures such as fractional laser or pulsed light, but in the most severe cases it is possible to remove them completely with plastic surgery. There are also popular eye bag removal treatments to soften the bags, with creams, moisturizers, firming or makeup.
Usually, the pockets are formed by an accumulation of fat in the lower eyelids. Because the eye is inserted into a bone cavity, it is covered with fat for protection, and in some people, this fat is also located in front of the eyes, forming the uncomfortable pockets that are visible.
Generally, the bag under the eyes is caused by genetic causes, however, they may become more apparent in some cases, especially after a sleepless night, due to fluid retention or due to sagging and aging skin. Check out other causes of puffiness in the eyes.
Popular eye bag treatment options
Here are the main treatments offered for eye bag removal in Singapore offered by aesthetic clinics and centres like Cambridge Therapeutics.
1. Intense Pulsed light
Intense pulsed light is a photo rejuvenation treatment that uses pulses of light directed to areas of the skin to correct imperfections. The light used is converted to heat on the skin, which softens marks, blemishes and imperfections, helping to disguise the affected area.
In addition, this treatment helps improve the circulation of the region’s blood vessels, decreasing swelling, and tightening the skin below the eyes. Check out other benefits of pulsed light.
2. Chemical Peel
Chemical peeling is done by applying acids that remove the outer layers of the skin, which helps to reduce sagging skin around the eyes, as well as reducing dark spots of dark circles. Thus, this procedure can soften the appearance of the bags and may be useful in milder cases.
See the precautions you should take after this procedure.
Treatment with application of carbon dioxide under the skin causes the vessels to dilate, which improves blood flow in the region and stimulates greater collagen production.
Thus, sagging skin and expression marks are diminished, which makes this procedure useful for treating many cases of bags under the eyes. Learn more benefits of carboxytherapy and how it is done .
4. Laser Therapy
Laser treatment helps eliminate molecules that cause skin darkening, as well as helping to eliminate sagging and imperfections in the region. Check out the main indications of laser treatment on the face .
5. Filling with hyaluronic acid
Filling with hyaluronic acid is an excellent treatment for wiping the bags under the eyes, especially in cases where the bags are accentuated by furrows or sagging skin. See how hyaluronic acid can fight wrinkles .
6. Plastic Surgery
Cosmetic surgery with removal of excess fat under the eyelids is the best treatment to remove the bags under the eyes, especially in the most severe cases that do not resolve with other treatments.
In some cases, it can be associated with blepharoplasty, which is a plastic surgery that removes excess skin from the eyelids to remove wrinkles that lead to a tired and aged appearance. See how blepharoplasty is done and the results.
7. Use of cosmetics
Cosmetics based on creams, ointments or gels may be helpful in aiding the treatment of bags under the eyes as they may contain moisturizing properties that increase the elasticity and smoothness of the skin, draining effects that eliminate the accumulation of fluid on the spot, as well as helping to provide firmer skin.
Products should be indicated by the dermatologist according to each person’s skin characteristics, and some options include products based on polypeptides, hyaluronic acid or extracts such as green tea extract or oils such as cottonseed and andiroba, for example.
These tips can help you reduce or remove bags under eyes (Home Remedies):
- Utilize a cool compress. While sitting up, use the moist washcloth into your skin beneath and around your eyes for a couple of minutes using gentle strain.
- Cut down fluids and decrease salt in your diet plan. This will decrease the fluid retention which can lead to bags under eyes.
- Do not smoke. Smoking may aggravate the issue of bags below your eyes.
- Get sufficient sleep. For the majority of adults, seven to eight hours is a fantastic quantity of sleep. It might help to bring an excess pillow or prop up the head of your mattress. Or elevate the whole mind of the bed several inches. Dark circles brought on by fluid retention on your eyelids generally go away once you wake up.
- Reduce allergies. Prevent allergens when potential. Try over-the-counter allergy drugs. Speak with your doctor about prevention approaches should you create under-eye reactions because of hair dyes, soaps, makeup or other allergens.
- Use makeup. If you want to conceal your under-eye circles, then consider using cosmetics.
I hope this has been an informative read for you. Keep in mind that the best thing you can do is try to prevent eye bags from appearing in the first place, so make sure you take into account the information here as well as general lifestyle changes you may have to implement for a healthier, more beautiful life.

Marathon world record holder to miss OlympicsBy BBC | Wednesday, April 25 2012 at 19:54
Kenya have sprung a surprise by leaving marathon world record holder Patrick Makau out of their 2012 Olympic squad.
The African nation's abundance of talent means 2011 New York and Boston marathon winner Geoffrey Mutai and Emmamuel Mutai, who won in London last year, are also missing.
But Kenya are still confident of winning gold at the games.
They named Sunday's London Marathon winner Wilson Kipsang and double world champion Abel Kirui in their squad.
Moses Mosop's third place in the Rotterdam marathon earlier this month also secured his place in the Kenyan line-up.
Makau set his world record of 2:03:38 in Berlin last September, with Kipsang setting the second fastest time ever run when registering 2:03:42 a month later.
Kenya have selected the first three women home in the London Marathon to represent them in the Olympics.
Double London champion Mary Keitany, world champion Edna Kiplagat and world silver medallist Priscah Jeptoo will compete in London this summer.

Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com reports that the Rangers are looking for a right-handed bat, but “are not simply waiting on a trade for” Mike Lowell, who they nearly acquired during the offseason before thumb surgery nixed the deal.
According to Rosenthal the Rangers “are exploring deals for a number of right-handed hitting corner players, including Diamondbacks left fielder Conor Jackson.” Last season was a lost year for Jackson, who played just 30 games and performed abysmally while struggling through a bout of valley fever.
He hasn’t bounced back very well this season, hitting just .238 with one homer and a .657 OPS in 42 games, but was a consistently solid hitter with an OPS above .800 in 2006, 2007, and 2008.Texas would likely be looking at Jackson as a platoon partner for rookie first baseman Justin Smoak, a switch-hitter who has struggled mightily versus southpaws.
Rosenthal notes that Jackson is making $3.1 million this season and will be arbitration eligible again in 2011, so while the Diamondbacks are probably looking to simply dump his salary at this point trading for him wouldn’t necessarily be merely a second-half pickup.

Skip to comments.How two votes could diminish Britain's role in the world forever
Posted on 05/16/2014 1:05:20 AM PDT by Berlin_Freeper
The UK is set for a major shift in its place in the world, as Scots vote on independence this fall and PM David Cameron looks to hold a referendum in 2017 on leaving the EU.
(Excerpt) Read more at csmonitor.com ...
Today, the Cutty Sark now sits on display on the banks of the Thames in Greenwich. Keith Merritt stands admiring the ship,where he chose to bring his six-year-old grandson on his first visit to London to see all the good bits of where we were. But the engineer cant help but lament that Britain in 2014 is not gazing outward, but increasingly inward, thinking smaller instead of big.Cutty Sark destroyed by fire
The ship was badly damaged by fire on 21 May 2007 while undergoing conservation. The vessel has since been restored and reopened to the public on 25 April 2012.
Speaking in Glasgow, he will declare: My message is simple. We want Scotland to stay.
As Scotland's breakaway movement succeeds, its survival depends on the vitality of the European Union which is under threat from Nigel Ferage. The Scots want home rule which is certainly more democratic in the sense that their votes would count more than they currently do in London. The indictment led by Nigel Ferage against the European Union is that the European Union is essentially undemocratic, overly bureaucratic, and entirely elitist where the votes of an individual residing in any European country is diluted and swamped among 315 million votes and then frustrated by elitist bureaucrats in Brussels.
The Scots might find they will have traded more democracy for less, more security for less, more prosperity for less.
I agree with you. The Scots Nationalist case is basically for a larger slice of a much smaller pie. I personally think they will be much the worse for the exchange.
If Scotland leaves, and the UK also leaves the EU customs union - it will be like all the chains coming off at once.
Scotland has twice as many MPs per person as England: most of them are liberal. Without Scotland, England becomes Conservative.
And without the EU, England becomes free.
“Without Scotland, England becomes Conservative.”
This must worry Cameron no end as he is the biggest CINO politician I have ever seen in English politics!
Yep, free from trade and travel. The consensus on the street here is that England will give Scotland enough autonomy to stay in the UK, and the EU referendum will fail miserably.
Consider Scotland and then Neoeuropa...... the American Northeast.
There is no question that if the Neoeuropa was purged, America would be a better place
What was does not need to continue to be what is
We need one of the Bushes making a speech there for Euro NWO integration and Scotland attachments... would fly real well...
Bailing from the EU might be the best thing England has done for a long time. Loosing Scotland may not be to their advantage though.
The EU is a sinking ship. Its a just a matter of how many more years it will soldier on before finally failing.
The UK will likely vote to leave the EU especially if Nigel Farage manages to become PM in the next few years.
Countries like Greece, Portugal, and many eastern European nations never had the economies to be able to function in the EU and never should have been allowed in. Now they are nothing but a drag on it.
England would well be rid of Scotland’s Labour MPs if you ask me.
Scotland is already a basketcase and politically moonbat, like a giant White Detroit with better scenery. The best of the Scots already left for America long ago. A Conservative in England not wanting to cut them loose should have their head examined. It would also force Scotland to grow up (politically speaking).
I agree completely.
The Tory leadership is completely against it (morons) but I would imagine the rank and file do not agree with them.
I’ve heard some UK freepers voice opposition though, national pride. I think you gotta put that aside for common sense. Would anyone here object if New England up and decided they wanted out of the union? I would bid fond farewell to their congressional delegations.
I do think it would benefit Scotland also, it’s possible one day they could have a right-of-center government after they’ve as you said “grown up”, and get a local right of center party not affiliated with the Tories, who are heavily disliked in Scotland.
Most of the Northeast, for that matter, the Black Hole of DC (including MD & NoVA), Philadelphia, Detroit, Chicago (Sorry, Impy), and pretty much the entire West Coast above San Diego to Puget Sound would pretty much free the rest of the country.
The Scottish “Right” ought to just start a new party and call it “Liberal” like Australia. Reclaim the name from the Communists who took a positive-sounding word and ideology (of the classic sense) and perverted it into something evil.
Last I checked Orange Co is just north of San Diego and one of the most conservative co in the USA.
Excuse me, then above the O.C. northwards, starting at L.A. County. It’s getting late. :-P
Unfortunately, it’s also been trending leftward at an alarming rate like the rest of the state. While Dubya got 60% there in 2004, Zero still got 46% of the vote there in 2012, with Willard getting less than 52%, far below most suburban “Conservative” counties (and McCain barely eked out 50% in ‘08).
Go back to the last year the GOP won the state (1988) and the county voted 68% for GHW Bush to Dukakis’s 31%. Reagan won it with 75%(!) in 1984. That’s when it had its reputation as a premier GOP Conservative county in the nation. A long time ago when the nation was a saner place.
I am an English Conservative who, despite frequent periods of despair at the influence of Scottish lefties, still believes in the Union.
I do this because I see Scotland and its people as fellow Britons belonging to a common nation, not as disposable appendages to be cut off and thrown away in the name of present political expediency. I’m sure many Americans who are often exasperated by the attitudes and influences of the Blue States will feel the same.

If you did nothing to change your life over the course of the next 12 months, how would you feel 365 days from now?
Have you ever stopped to consider what your life would look like if you did nothing to change it over the next 12 months? Would you feel content and satisfied with where you are, or would you feel stuck and unfulfilled? This is a question that we all need to ask ourselves if we want to live our best lives.
When we choose to do nothing, we are essentially giving up on ourselves and our potential for growth and self-improvement. We are settling for a mediocre existence instead of striving for excellence. And while it may be tempting to stay in our comfort zones, the truth is that true growth and happiness come from taking action.
Taking action doesn’t mean that we have to make drastic changes overnight. It can start with small steps, such as setting milestones and making a plan to achieve them. It can also involve seeking out support and guidance from others who have walked the same path. By taking action, we open ourselves up to new opportunities and experiences that we would have otherwise missed out on.
On the other hand, if we choose to do nothing and let life pass us by, we will likely feel regret and disappointment when we look back on the missed opportunities and the time that we can never get back. The choice is ours to make, but the consequences of inaction are not worth it.
Now, let’s fast forward to this same time next year. If we choose to take action and make positive changes in our lives, we will likely feel a sense of pride and accomplishment when we look back on how far we’ve come. We will have grown and evolved as individuals, and we will be better equipped to handle whatever challenges come our way in the future.
Bottom line y’all…
Taking action and making positive changes in our lives is essential for personal growth and fulfillment. As we look ahead to this time next year, let’s commit to taking small steps towards our goals and trusting in ourselves to make the changes that we need to live our best lives!
Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise! It has no commander, no overseer or ruler, yet it stores its provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest. How long will you lie there, you sluggard? When will you get up from your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest — and poverty will come on you like a thief and scarcity like an armed man.
~ Proverbs 6:6-11

Longer Course of Induction Chemotherapy Followed by Chemoradiation Favors Better Survival Outcomes for Patients With Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer
ABSTRACT At diagnosis, 30% of patients with pancreatic cancer are unresectable stage 3 locally advanced. The standard treatment for locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC) is not defined. The current study was conducted to assess the roles of chemotherapy and chemoradiation for LAPC treatment.
Between June 2006 and March 2011, 100 patients with LAPC were treated at the Johns Hopkins Hospital. Retrospective analysis was performed to compare cumulative incidence of progression (CIP) and overall survival (OS) among different subgroups.
For the 100 patients, the median OS was 15.8 months and the median CIP was 8.4 months. The combination of chemotherapy and chemoradiation before disease progression was significantly associated with improved CIP (P=0.001) and improved OS when compared with chemoradiation alone (median OS: 16.4 vs. 11.1 mo, P=0.03). Among patients receiving combination treatment, patients who received chemotherapy first followed by chemoradiation had a trend toward lower CIP (P=0.09) and improved OS (median OS: 18.1 vs. 11.0 mo, P=0.09). Patients who received >2 cycles of chemotherapy before chemoradiation had a significantly decreased CIP (P=0.008) and a trend toward better OS (median OS: 19.4 vs. 15.7 mo, P=0.10). On multivariate analysis, receiving >2 cycles of chemotherapy before chemoradiation was associated with improved CIP.
Although combination chemotherapy and chemoradiation is favored in the treatment of LAPC, longer induction chemotherapy may play a more important role in sensitization of tumors to subsequent chemoradiation. Our results support treating patients with induction chemotherapy for at least 3 cycles followed by consolidative chemoradiation. These results merit further validation by a prospective study.

ABSTRACT: Pancreatic cancer is rapidly fatal with median survival of only 6 months (mo). Quality-of-life (QoL) was analyzed prospectively in a phase 2 study of gemcitabine (G), capecitabine (C) and bevacizumab (B) in APC patients. A total of 50 patients with APC received B 15 mg/kg, C 1,300 mg/m(2) daily for 2 weeks and G 1,000 mg/m(2) weekly 2 times; cycles were repeated every 21 days. Endpoints: progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and assessment of QoL prior to each cycle using the European organization for research and treatment of cancer (EORTC) PAN-26 QoL questionnaire. An exact 95% confidence interval (CI) (Clopper-Pearson method) was used to assess rate of improved QoL (defined as >5% decrease in two consecutive scores compared with baseline). Patient characteristics- Stage IIB/III/IV: 3/5/42; Sex: 28 M/22 F; Median age: 64 years. QoL in patients- improved: 56%, no improvement: 24%; unevaluable: 20%. Median PFS: 5.8 mo, OS: 9.8 mo. QoL improvement rate: 28/40=0.7 (95% CI: 0.53-0.83) in evaluable patients. Using QoL improvement rate, no significant difference was seen in patients with OS ≥6 mo compared to OS <6 mo. However QoL scores at 3 and 6 weeks from start of treatment correlated strongly with ≥6 mo survival (P value 0.0092 and 0.0081, respectively). Baseline score and change in QoL scores of patients on G, C and B were not predictive of survival ≥6 mo. Post treatment scores at 3 and 6 weeks from start of therapy however, were predictive of survival ≥6 mo suggesting the potential predictive value of this tool for use in future studies.Journal of gastrointestinal oncology 12/2014; 5(6):433-439.

No gold for silverline

THE bad luck that had dogged the Original Style Silverline team throughout the event returned with a vengeance on Monday's final leg of the Round Britain powerboat race. Serious engine damage left the boat unable to sail above 12 knots
THE bad luck that had dogged the Original Style Silverline team throughout the event returned with a vengeance on Monday's final leg of the Round Britain powerboat race. Serious engine damage left the boat unable to sail above 12 knots and that, on top of the earlier overnight gearbox rebuilds and the broken ribs sustained by Ebford's Miles Jennings earlier in the race, summed up the ill fortune that Silverline was left to face in the week long test of endurance for both machine and man.A win in Saturday's leg from Edinburgh to Newcastle had taken the boat back to the top of the RB2 class leader board and into 7th overall in the entire field of boats, but Sunday's leg saw a driveline coupling fail and the team had to call for help from the Cromer lifeboat to limp into port, which meant they conceded top spot in their class with just one leg to race. The final leg served up yet more problems as they were forced to 'retire' from the last section of the race owing to more mechanical problems: "After burning the midnight oil from Sunday into Monday, John Christensen and his hard working engineering team had done a fabulous job to repair the couplings damaged in Sunday's leg to Lowestoft. Sadly, though, we suffered a blown head gasket in the final leg and that rather summed up our luck, leaving us with no option but to 'retire' from the last leg of the race."It was certainly tough on the Silverline crew who had set off last week with such high hopes and, indeed, after a magnificent opening stage where they claimed a big lead, they were entitled to feel that perhaps glory was before them. But this event is arguably one of the toughest that takes place on the seas, anywhere in the world.There was, however, some good news for Jennings, Miles Dalton and Jan Falkowski though, when they heard that with the good results they had registered in the earlier legs of the race they were ultimatley placed 2nd in their class, no mean feat this given the bruised bodies and boat come the conclusion of the week-long race.

En español | Americans age 65 and over should get access to coronavirus vaccines right away, Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Alex Azar said Tuesday, and states with the highest concentration of older residents will get more vaccine doses to support that effort.
People younger than 65 who have medical conditions that put them at risk for severe COVID-19 should also be prioritized for vaccination, Azar also said.
"We clearly have enough vaccine at this point to begin to expand and get more and more of the vulnerable individuals in our country vaccinated,” Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Robert Redfield told reporters at a briefing on the vaccine effort.
AARP has been urging federal officials to speed up vaccinating older adults. CEO Jo Ann Jenkins sent a letter to Azar on Monday calling for him to immediately prioritize older adults and fix the problems that have led to the slow vaccine rollout nationwide.
Azar outlined four ways that HHS will encourage states to adopt a new vaccination approach in order to get more shots in the arms of Americans and target the 65-plus population.
1. Expand eligibility
Azar wants states to allow any resident 65 and older and anyone younger than 65 with health conditions that put them at risk for contracting the coronavirus to begin getting vaccinated right away.
Initial guidance from the CDC advised states to put the first priority on vaccinating health care workers and residents and staff in nursing homes, followed by Americans age 75 and older and frontline essential workers.
Expanding those getting the vaccine “is the most effective way to save lives now,” Azar said at the briefing. States make the ultimate decisions on when specific populations get vaccinated. A number of them have already begun vaccinating their 65-plus residents.
2. Open more vaccine sites
Federal officials also want states to greatly expand the places people can go to get a COVID-19 vaccine, including local pharmacies, health centers and mass vaccination sites, which HHS will help states set up.
The government has partnerships with 19 pharmacy chains and associations, ranging from CVS and Walgreens to Kroger and Walmart, and states can allocate vaccines directly to those partners, which would then schedule vaccination appointments, Azar said.
Using the pharmacies means the public can go to “a place where the American people are comfortable going and receiving the shot,” said U.S. Army General Gustave Perna, chief operating officer of Operation Ward Speed. Some pharmacies have already been administering vaccines to health care workers and nursing home residents.
3. Distribute more doses
Since the vaccine effort began in December, HHS has held back millions of doses so enough vaccine would be available to give people their second shot. The Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine calls for a second shot after 21 days, while the second shot for the Moderna vaccine is supposed to be administered 28 days after the first one.
HHS will now release the doses it has held in reserve and send them to the states. Azar stressed that both pharmaceutical companies are producing enough vaccine to keep up the pace to provide second shots to everyone who has gotten a first dose.
There has been debate in the scientific community over whether a single dose is sufficient to provide some protection, and whether it's critical to provide a second dose precisely at the prescribed three- or four-week interval the companies have advised. “Based on the science and evidence we have it is imperative that people receive their second doses on time,” said Azar. That is also the position the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which authorized the vaccines, has taken.
4. Use all available vaccine
States with a high older population will get more vaccine and doses will also be allocated based on how quickly states are getting shots in their residents’ arms. Up to now, vaccine allocations have been based on a state's total population.
Join today and get instant access to discounts, programs, services, and the information you need to benefit every area of your life.
Azar said the data that shows a wide variance in vaccine administration may be due to underreporting by states. So, HHS is giving states time to correct their data. Beginning in two weeks, Azar said, states that are lagging behind in using the doses they have been allocated will see their vaccine allotments decreased and given to states that are more efficient in getting the vaccine administered.
This procedure “gives states a strong incentive to go to work protecting people rather than (the vaccine) sitting on shelves or in freezers,” Azar said. “With the case counts we face now there is absolutely no time to waste."

- Our in-house designed (Joachim Stadel & Ben Moore 2003), massively parallel supercomputer for running our cosmological N-body simulations. This machine consists of 288 AMD Athlon-MP 2200+ (1.8 GHz) CPUs within a few cubic meters. Under load it produces about 45 kW of heat, about equivalent to 45 electric hair dryers operating continuously! This amount of heat, combined with the extremely high density necessitated a new design for efficient cooling. The 144 nodes (2 CPUs per node) are connected using an SCI fast interconnect supplied by Dolphin in a 12x12 2-dimensional torus. The layout of the machine is ring-like, thereby allowing very short "ribbon" cables to be used between the nodes. This fast interconnect network attains a peak bisection bandwidth of 96 Gbits/sec, with a node-node write/read latency as low as 1.5/3.5 microseconds. Additionally the zBox has 11.5 TBytes of disk (80 GBytes/node) and 3 Gbits/s I/O bandwidth to a frontend server with 7 TB of RAID-5 storage. This is among the fastest parallel computers in the world! At "first light" it ranked in the top 100, but the technology advances quickly.

Job Losses Increase Pressure For Reform
(Source: August 2010 NRTWC Newsletter)
Grass-Roots Right to Work Efforts Expanding in Midwestern States
Pro-forced unionism politicians like Gov. Jennifer Granholm (D-Mich., shown here with former Vice President Gore and President Obama) have lost credibility due to the extraordinarily poor economic performance of forced-unionism states. Credit: Radiospike.com
All across America, Right to Work states have long benefited from economic growth far superior to that of states in which millions of employees are forced to join or pay dues or fees to a labor union just to keep their jobs.
But over the past decade, the contrast between Right to Work states and forced-union-dues states has been especially stark in the Midwest.
Four Midwestern forced-unionism states -- Michigan, Ohio, Illinois and Indiana -- suffered absolute private-sector job declines over the past decade that were worse than those of any of the other 46 states. Midwestern forced-unionism states (the four just mentioned, plus Missouri, Wisconsin and Minnesota) lost a net total of 1.88 million private-sector jobs.
Combined, these seven forced-unionism states had 8.1% fewer private-sector jobs in 2009 than they did back in 1999.
Meanwhile, the five Midwestern Right to Work states (North Dakota, Nebraska, South Dakota, Iowa and Kansas) experienced an overall private-sector job increase of 2.3%.
Moreover, from 1999 to 2009, real personal income in Midwestern Right to Work states grew by 17.3% -- an increase two-and-a-half times as a great as the combined real personal income growth in Midwestern forced-unionism states.
State Right to Work laws prohibit the firing of employees simply for exercising their right to refuse to join or bankroll an unwanted union.
At this time, 22 states have Right to Work laws on the books. However, because of intensifying grass-roots efforts in many of the remaining 28 forced-unionism states, the number of Right to Work states could be on the rise over the course of the next few years.

If you’ve wanted a smart and economical way to improve the overall performance of your 6.0L Ford Powerstroke this CFM+ SmallMouth Intake Manifold System is the way to do it. It offers a 40% increase in air flow over your current stock intake manifold. The opening on this model is the standard 3" diameter which means it will bolt right on with no need to change hoses or pipes.
Here you can see the difference between a CFM+ vs. stock intake.
This CFM+ SmallMouth Intake Manifold for the 6.0L Powerstroke has a single port which HAS been pre-drilled and tapped. It comes with an installation manual and all required hardware for mounting. The total system includes the SmallMouth Intake Manifold, 4 bolts, one gasket and 2 tie straps.
CFM+ SmallMouth Intake Manifold 20-003-104 will fit:
- 2003 – 2007 Ford Trucks & Excursions with 6.0L Powerstroke Engines
Note for 2004 Powerstrokes: This modification is considered an “off-road-only” modification on 2004 models. The 2003 model was built with an inert spacer between the intake manifold and the engine; there may be wires running to that spacer, but they are not live (hence, it can be removed without any problems). In the 2004 model, an active butterfly valve was placed within that spacer for exhaust gas recirculation purposes. While that spacer with the butterfly valve can be removed on the ’04 model, if you do so, you are modifying your EGR system and thereby possibly circumventing state or federal rules regarding emissions. Hence, for the 2004 model, 6.0L CFM+ intakes can only be used for off-road purposes. If you do choose to install this part for off-road use only, removing the spacer and butterfly valve will cause your truck to throw a cell. However, in most cases, it will not turn on your check-engine light. The entire spacer, including the butterfly valve, was removed beginning with the 2005 models and was not present on the 2006 or 2007 models. Since there is no spacer to remove, this intake manifold will bolt right onto your 2005 – 2007 model for a quick and easy installation.

Officials at Amonix headquarters in Seal Beach, Calif., have not responded to repeated calls for comment this week. The company began selling surplus equipment, from automated tooling systems to robotic welding cells, in an online auction Wednesday.
A designer and manufacturer of concentrated photovoltaic solar power systems, Amonix received $6 million in federal tax credits for the North Las Vegas plant and a $15.6 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy in 2007 for research and development.
Rene Kenerly, a former material and supply manager at Amonix, said the plant has been idle since May 1, when he was laid off. At its peak, the plant had ramped up to about 700 employees working three shifts a day to produce solar panels for a utility customer in Amarosa, Colo., he said.
"I don't think they had a lot of training," Kenerly said. "There were a lot of quality issues. A lot of stuff was coming back because it had some functionality issues."
The Amonix plant was highly touted by political leaders and economic development officials when it opened in May 2011. Company executives said they would employ as many as 300 assembly line workers paid $12 to $14 an hour, plus benefits.
Nevada Sen. Harry Reid, U.S. Rep. Shelley Berkley, D-Nev., and Gov. Brian Sandoval were among the political leaders who lauded the company when it announced it would start making solar panels in the Golden Triangle Industrial Park.
"Last year, Amonix CEO Brian Robertson was tragically killed in a plane crash and unfortunately the company was unable to recover from this difficult time," Reid said Wednesday in an e-mail statement. "Some people will be tempted to use today's unfortunate news for political gain. But I am hopeful that the bipartisan support for this project and the public-private partnership that helped make this and many other projects possible will not be degraded by dirty energy supporters for their own profit or political gain. The clean energy sector is too important to Nevada's future and I hope that those that publicly acknowledge this will continue to strengthen the bipartisan support for renewable energy programs and incentives that exists in Nevada."
Department of Energy press secretary Jen Stutsman said the project received bipartisan support from elected officials including Gov. Sandoval and North Las Vegas Mayor Shari Buck.
Amonix was selected for a grant under the Bush Administration's Department of Energy in 2007, and eventually received a total of $15.6 million under the grant, she said.
"The global solar industry is facing significant challenges that are impacting solar manufacturers worldwide," Stutsman said Wednesday from Washington. "Amonix, an innovative solar startup company with strong backing from Republicans as well as Democrats, received a tax credit to expand its American manufacturing operations and help ensure the United States continues to compete for the manufacturing jobs of the future. While today's news is disappointing, the United States simply can't afford to cede America's role in the growing, highly competitive solar energy industry."
The company announced 200 layoffs in January, one month after Robertson was killed in a plane crash in Pennsylvania.
"We are retooling to redeploy our next generation utility-scale CPV (concentrated photovoltaic) solar power system," company spokeswoman Kelly Rice said in an e-mail at that time. "During this time, we will ramp down our facility to about 100 jobs, and will ramp back up based on the manufacturing build plan in second half of 2012."
Founded in 1989, Amonix is headquartered in Seal Beach with additional facilities in Torrance, Calif., and North Las Vegas.
A hand-written sign posted at the shuttered plant Wednesday morning gave telephone numbers in California and Las Vegas for deliveries and inquiries.
Amonix had a five-year lease on the site with Operating Engineers. Donna Alderson, broker for CB Richard Ellis in charge of leasing the building, said she was told the facility would be vacated by the end of July and put back on the market for lease at about 30 cents a square foot.
"We didn't know how they would handle the exit, if it would be through bankruptcy," she said. "It's terrible. We don't need this, but it is what it is."
The North Las Vegas plant was a joint venture with Singapore's Flextronics Industrial. Amonix founder and chairman Vahan Garboushian had estimated capital investment of $15 million in the plant, including equipment, construction and tenant improvements.
Kenerly, the former Amonix manager, said the company was about $100 million in debt, including $34 million owed to Flextronics. Bombard Electric, the Las Vegas contractor that did the electrical work, has placed a lien on the property used for the solar panels, he said.
Robertson was the "front man" for Amonix, and when he died, a lot of investors pulled back, Kenerly said.
Mitchell "Moe" Truman, president of Pan Western, a transportation service in North Las Vegas, said his company is owed about $60,000 for shipping Amonix products to and from Colorado.
"I'll never see that money," Truman said. "I'd like to know how they burned through that money."
The closing of the Amonix plant quickly turned into political warfare Wednesday for U.S. Senate candidates Dean Heller and Berkley.
"Congresswoman Berkley, when you voted for the trillion dollar stimulus, you promised it would create 34,000 jobs in Nevada," wrote Chandler Smith, spokeswoman for Heller. "Nevada lost jobs. Congresswoman Berkley, you pushed $6 million in funding to a company that has created zero long-term jobs for Nevada. It's time for you to admit the stimulus - and your policies - aren't working."
Xochitl Hinojosa, communications director for Berkley, responded: "Shame on Senator Dean Heller. While Shelley Berkley and Republican Governor Brian Sandoval are working to make Nevada the clean energy jobs capital of America, Senator Heller is cheering the fact that hundreds of Nevadans have just lost their jobs because he thinks it will help his political campaign. However, Heller's rooting for failure should come as no surprise to Nevada's middle class, given his track record protecting tax breaks for corporations that ship American jobs overseas and defending China's unfair trade policies that are cheating Nevada workers out of thousands of good-paying jobs. It's time for Heller to put Nevada first by joining Shelley Berkley and Republican Governor Sandoval to find solutions that put people back to work. Those who are unemployed deserve more from their senator."
Amonix isn't the only solar company to go under after receiving an infusion of federal capital.
California-based Solyndra filed for bankruptcy last year after receiving $535 million in federal loan guarantees from the Obama administration.
Colorado-based Abound Solar, which received a $70 million loan guaranteed by the Energy Department, filed for bankruptcy in June, succumbing to intense competition from China that has sharply driven down the cost of solar panels, chairman Thomas Tiller said in a Reuters news article.
Tiller said the Chinese government provided about $35 billion in subsidies to Chinese solar companies, resulting in sharp growth in production capacity that outpaced demand and pushed down the price for panels more than 50 percent in just a year.
The global market for clean and renewable energies reached a record $260 billion last year and is expected to grow into the trillions over the next 20 years, the Department of Energy reported.
Solar manufacturing in particular is growing dramatically in the United States and around the world. According to the Solar Energy Industry Association, employment in the U.S. solar industry has doubled to more than 100,000 since 2009.

Md. regulator opposes Washington Adventist move to White Oak
- Staff Washington Business Journal
The lead commissioner reviewing Washington Adventist Hospital's proposed move from Takoma Park to White Oak has come out against the move on Tuesday.
Barbara Gill McLean, a member of the Maryland Health Commission, recommended that the full commission deny the certificate of need to relocate the 249-bed acute care hospital, owned by Rockville-based Adventist HealthCare.
“I am recomending denial because the applicant has not shown that the project is financially feasible and will be viable in the future,” McLean wrote in her recommendation (PDF).
Washington Adventist Hospital projected in its filing that its total net assets would equal a negative balance of $5.28 million at the end of 2012, $455,000 at the end of 2013 and a negative balance again of $22.7 million at the end of 2014.
Adventist HealthCare issued a statement saying it was "deeply disappointed" with the recommendation.
“Make no mistake the plan laid out in the CON application is well-thought out, affordable and supported by thousands of people in our community,” the statement says.
Adventist HealthCare wants to build the new facility on a 48-acre site near the new Food and Drug Administration campus, the proposed East County Center for Science and Technology, and LifeSci Village. This sets Adventist HealthCare up for a potential second setback at the Maryland Health Care Commission, which last year approved a proposal by rival Holy Cross Hospital to build a new Germantown hospital over Adventist's bid to build one in northern Montgomery County.
The full commission will consider Washington Adventist Hospital's relocation on Oct. 18 at 1 p.m.
“We are not giving up in our efforts to make the full commission understand the regional importance of this project. At this time, we are carefully reviewing the recommendation and are drafting a formal response to the Commission,” Adventist said in its statement.

On one level, Bret Baier, the host of Fox News’s “Special Report,” deserves credit. Just before noon today, he appeared on the “Happening Now” program with host Jon Scott and admitted to a “mistake” that occurred on Fox News air on Wednesday night.
As the transcript suggests, “mistake” minimizes the implications. In a chat with host Brit Hume on the Fox News program “On the Record,” Baier brought forth what he billed as a scoop. “The Clinton Foundation investigation is far more expansive than anybody has reported, I think, so far,” said Baier — an assertion that he based on “two separate sources with intimate knowledge of what’s going on with these FBI investigations.” Take note that Baier did not attribute the information to two actual “FBI sources.”
In any case, Baier apparently had enough confidence in these people to make quite a claim on their behalf. “The investigations will continue, there is a lot of evidence. And barring some obstruction in some way, they believe they will continue to, likely, an indictment.” Hume responded appropriately, “Wow, Bret Baier, thanks, buddy.”
In his talk with Hume, Baier cited two ongoing investigations. The key one relates to pay-to-play allegations surrounding the Clinton Foundation — namely, that big shots made donations to the charity in exchange for access or some considerations from Hillary Clinton’s State Department. Such is the thrust of the 2015 book “Clinton Cash” by Peter Schweizer, an author who partnered with news organizations to mine his findings. Back in April 2015, Fox News announced that it had secured the “television exclusive” to report on the book. Associated allegations — namely that the Clinton Foundation was a greedy gateway to Foggy Bottom — have crossed Fox News airwaves pretty regularly ever since.
In an interview yesterday with Fox News host Bill Hemmer, Schweizer said that the FBI started looking into pay-for-play just after his book’s spring 2015 release. The notion that this alleged FBI effort, however, would “likely” culminate in an indictment of some sort, however, has taken a beating in the past day or so. Yesterday afternoon, NBC News Chief Justice Correspondent Pete Williams said there was “an initial inquiry” into the Clinton Foundation based, in part, on “Clinton Cash.” “But FBI officials tell me there’s been virtually no movement on that case for the last several months. So this idea that indictments are near, I’m told, is just not true.” ABC News has also knocked down the Baier reporting.
Two big networks, two big debunkings. Baier, accordingly, had to account for himself. So in his noon appearance today with Scott, he said the following:
All the time, but especially in a heated election, on a topic this explosive, every word matters, no matter how well sourced. Which brings me to this: I explained a couple of times yesterday the phrasing of one of my answers to Brit Hume on Wednesday night, saying it was inartful, the way I answered the last question about whether the investigation would continue after election. And I answered that yes, our sources said it would, they would continue and likely an indictment. Well, that just wasn’t inartful; it was a mistake and for that I’m sorry. I should have said they would continue to build their case. Indictment obviously is a very loaded word … especially in this atmosphere and no one knows if there would or would not be an indictment no matter how strong investigators feel their evidence is. It’s obviously a prosecutor who has to make that case and take the case to a grand jury. We stand by the sourcing on the ongoing, active Clinton Foundation investigation.
Just what kind of sourcing does Baier have at his disposal? Who are these “two separate sources” so familiar with the FBI’s doings? Fox News didn’t respond to a question about sourcing.
So we don’t know with whom Baier was chatting. In debuting these allegations with Hume on Wednesday night, Baier said. “The investigations will continue, there is lot of evidence.” In certain circles, that seems to be conventional wisdom. Look at how Schweizer himself referred to the state of the case in his discussion yesterday on Fox News with host Bill Hemmer: “There’s a lot more information, so this is not going to go away.” Schweizer confirmed that he had spoken with the FBI multiple times, though his last contact was in February. Schweizer is the president of the Government Accountability Institute, an anti-“crony capitalism” organization. Just below Schweizer on the institute’s “about” page is Executive Chairman and Co-Founder Stephen K. Bannon — the CEO of the Trump campaign.
Baier did say today that Fox News has redoubled its efforts on the story and now has more than six sources confirming that “there is an active investigation into the Clinton Foundation that has been going on for more than a year, it is continuing and for those investigators working it it is a priority.” That’s much less of a scoop and pretty much aligns with a much-better-sourced Wall Street Journal story on the matter from Wednesday.
In discussing this matter on CNN this morning with media correspondent Brian Stelter, “New Day” co-host Alisyn Camerota noted of Baier, “Bret is a real journalist. He’s not Sean Hannity who, as we’ve discussed, is a broadcaster who just fell for a fake news story and rolling it out on his radio show.” It may be time to adjust that assessment. Sure, Baier gets a lot of credit for running a quality report for Fox News every night. But as even he appears to now understand, there is quite possibly no better time than now to prove your journalistic chops than the week before a presidential election. In this instance, Baier spoke of a likely indictment — something that has to come from the Justice Department — based on a couple of sources familiar with the FBI.
So this isn’t just sloppy journalism; it’s propaganda. As proved by Donald Trump himself, who yesterday told a crowd in pivotal Florida, “There is more breaking news I would like to share with you right now. It was reported last night that the FBI is conducting a criminal investigation into Hillary Clinton’s pay-for-play corruption during her tenure as secretary of state. … It was reported that an avalanche of information is coming in. The FBI agents say they their investigation is likely to yield an indictment.” Breitbart was all over it.
Correction: Post changed to eliminate speculation on whether Baier used Schweizer as a source. A rep for Schweizer said the two haven’t had contact since spring 2015.

Researchers Evaluate Horses as Model of Human Depression
Some of the ailments horses and humans have in common include uveitis, cancer, and respiratory disease, among others. And according to recent study results from a team of French scientists, depression could be the next disorder studied in horses and translated to humans.
“Ethological approaches focused on animals’ spontaneous behavior in their home environments might prove useful, especially if the environmental conditions offered to animals share features with environmental conditions known to induce depression in humans,” explained lead researcher Carole Fureix, PhD, an equine behavior scientist at the University of Rennes 1 in France.
Stress at work and interpersonal stressors, for example, has been shown to cause a variety of problems for humans, including depression, Fureix

A Blind Spot
Thu, May 31–Sun, Jul 1, 2012
The term “blind spot” refers to a physiological characteristic of the human and animal eye; the area of the retina with no photoreceptors, and therefore “blind.” In popular usage it is the area around a vehicle that the driver cannot see. In everyday speech, it is what one does not see, cannot see, or what cannot be seen.
The term can be used to stand for the parts of the visible world that are built from language, discourse, knowledge, memory, and preconceptions. It summons the photography debates of the nineteenth century, in which a mere “copy” or image of reality was inferior to art’s imaginative capacity, and our contemporary blindness to the torrent of advertising and media images.
The proliferation of digital images and inflated forms of visibility point both to a “rarefaction of images” (Marie-José Mondzain) and a “decline of the visual” (Jean-Luc Godard). The distinction between the terms visual and image can be understood respectively as purely technical perception, and the added value of an image that is “always something more or less than itself” (Serge Daney). Further, there are no “good” or “bad” images, but images that require critical judgement, as opposed to those that stupefy the gaze and mind. Photographs, also, too often aestheticize and reinforce stereotypes, in ignorance of the equivocal quality of images. Images function through gaps and enigmas, whereas only army orders and advertisements come across loud and clear (Gilles Deleuze). Christopher Pinney provides further illumination in his text on Walter Benjamin’s “salutary estrangement” in the Berlin Documentary Forum 2 magazine.
In light of recent debates over the photographic image in the digital era, and the in reflection of the documentary form today, “A Blind Spot” (31 May – 1 July 2012), curated by Catherine David, looks at the work of three generations of artists and photographers who interrogate photography and film.
Eric Baudelaire explores an obscure historical episode in which photography is put the task of visualizing oppressive structures within landscapes. Elisabetta Benassi, David Goldblatt, and Christopher Williams present three very different and extraordinary acts of documentary classification. Hassan Khan deconstructs châabi (Egyptian popular music and dance) and the Middle East-inspired experiments of English musician Muslimgauze. Joachim Koester’s photographs operate in a field of tension between depiction and narrative content, and Vincent Meessen goes in search of the French colonial child soldier used by Roland Barthes in his classic semiotic analysis. Olaf Nicolai examines the frontiers of the exhibition space, and Melik Ohanian presents a work created for the 2011 Sharjah Biennial, where it eventually could not be shown. Efrat Shvily series 100 Years looks at the Israeli “situation” and the illusion of hiding in a man-made natural environment. Jeff Wall presents Cold Storage (2007), a series he has been working on since the mid-1990s informed by documentary tradition.
Presented in the framework of Berlin Documentary Forum 2, “A Blind Spot” is funded by Capital Cultural Fund (Hauptstadtkulturfonds) with the friendly support of Institut français.

After Louisville’s Kevin Ware broke his leg is horrific fashion in the first half against Duke, he was able to talk to his teammates for a brief moment.
According to CBS’s Tracy Wolfson at halftime, he said, “Don’t worry about me. I’ll be OK, you guys go win this thing.”
Louisville has since taken a 10-point lead in the second half.

With the pattern ringing true for some time now, it’s not unbelievable in the slightest when one hears a tip of a so-called “A7″ chip in Apple’s future for the iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch. What’s slightly more questionable is the possibility that part of the production of this chip might be done by Intel. With word of Apple aiming to pull away from Samsung in their chip production across the board having been an unofficial understanding for quite a few months now, it seems that Intel might be aiming to grab a piece of the pie.
This news comes from DigiTimes – a publication which you’ll certainly want to take some measure of salt listening to – speaking with unnamed “institutional investors.” The note speaks of Apple’s business aiming for Intel with an approximate 10% chop of the market in creating this next-generation mobile SoC. As for the rest of the pie, a rumor persists that TSMC – Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company – will be rolling in the production.
The newest break-up of production, again according to DigiTimes, is a 50/40/10 sharing of efforts, with Samsung keeping the largest slice while TSMC takes the 40 and Intel takes the 10. In the end, the A7 chip will remain Apple-branded and, unlike smartphones made by most other major manufacturers, the processor inside the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch will only be promoted as Apple-made. We’ll have to wait until the tear-down and magnifying glass up-close looks to be sure.
Have a peek at the timeline below to see more information on what Apple’s A-series chips have been up to, and stick around later this year to hear all about what’s almost certainly going to be the iPhone 5S, too. Is it time for the A7 chip to go much more than multi-core? Quite possibly!
