11 DESCRIPTION
21 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
* Sections or subsections omitted from the full prescribing information are not listed.
To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of Cefazolin for Injection, USP and other antibacterial drugs, Cefazolin for Injection, USP should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible bacteria. When culture and susceptibility information are available, they should be considered in selecting or modifying antibacterial therapy. In the absence of such data, local epidemiology and susceptibility patterns may contribute to the empiric selection of therapy.
Cefazolin for Injection, USP is indicated for the treatment of the following serious infections due to susceptible organisms.
1.1 Respiratory Tract Infections
Respiratory tract infections due to S. pneumoniae, Klebsiella species, H. influenzae, S. aureus (penicillin-sensitive and penicillin-resistant), and group A beta-hemolytic streptococci.
Injectable benzathine penicillin is considered to be the drug of choice in treatment and prevention of streptococcal infections, including the prophylaxis of rheumatic fever.
Cefazolin for Injection is effective in the eradication of streptococci from the nasopharynx; however, data establishing the efficacy of Cefazolin for Injection in the subsequent prevention of rheumatic fever are not available at present.
1.2 Urinary Tract Infections
Urinary tract infections due to Escherichia coli, and Proteus mirabilis, Klebsiella species, and some strains of enterobacter and enterococci.
1.3 Skin and Skin Structure Infections
Skin and skin structure infections due to S. aureus (penicillin-sensitive and penicillin-resistant), group A beta-hemolytic streptococci, and other strains of streptococci.
1.4 Biliary Tract Infections
Biliary infections due to E. coli, various strains of streptococci, P. mirabilis, Klebsiella species, and S. aureus.
1.5 Bone and Joint Infections
Bone and joint infections due to S. aureus.
1.6 Genital Infections
Genital infections (i.e., prostatitis, epididymitis) due to E. coli, P. mirabilis, Klebsiella species, and some strains of enterococci.
1.7 Septicemia
Septicemia due to S. pneumoniae, S. aureus (penicillin-sensitive and penicillin-resistant), P. mirabilis, E. coli, and Klebsiella species.
1.8 Endocarditis
Endocarditis due to S. aureus (penicillin-sensitive and penicillin-resistant) and group A beta-hemolytic streptococci.
1.9 Perioperative Prophylaxis
The prophylactic administration of Cefazolin for Injection preoperatively, intraoperatively, and postoperatively may reduce the incidence of certain postoperative infections in patients undergoing surgical procedures which are classified as contaminated or potentially contaminated (e.g., vaginal hysterectomy, and cholecystectomy in high-risk patients such as those older than 70 years, with acute cholecystitis, obstructive jaundice, or common duct bile stones).
The perioperative use of Cefazolin for Injection may also be effective in surgical patients in whom infection at the operative site would present a serious risk (e.g., during open-heart surgery and prosthetic arthroplasty).
The prophylactic administration of cefazolin should usually be discontinued within a 24 hour period after the surgical procedure. In surgery where the occurrence of infection may be particularly devastating (e.g., open-heart surgery and prosthetic arthroplasty), the prophylactic administration of cefazolin may be continued for 3 to 5 days following the completion of surgery.
If there are signs of infection, specimens for cultures should be obtained for the identification of the causative organism so that appropriate therapy may be instituted [See Dosage and Administration(2.1)].
To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of Cefazolin for Injection and other antibacterial drugs, Cefazolin for Injection should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible bacteria. When culture and susceptibility information are available, they should be considered in selecting or modifying antibacterial therapy. In the absence of such data, local epidemiology and susceptibility patterns may contribute to the empiric selection of therapy.
2.1 Adult Population
The recommended adult dosages are outlined in TABLE 1. Cefazolin for Injection should be administered intravenously or intramuscularly.
2.2 Perioperative Prophylactic Use
To prevent postoperative infection in contaminated or potentially contaminated surgery, recommended doses are:
1 gram intravenous or intramuscular administered 1/2 hour to 1 hour prior to the start of surgery.
For lengthy operative procedures (e.g., 2 hours or more), 500 mg to 1 gram intravenous or intramuscular during surgery (administration modified depending on the duration of the operative procedure).
500 mg to 1 gram intravenous or intramuscular every 6 to 8 hours for 24 hours postoperatively.
It is important that (i) the preoperative dose be given just prior (1/2 hour to 1 hour) to the start of surgery so that adequate antibiotic levels are present in the serum and tissues at the time of initial surgical incision; and (ii) Cefazolin for Injection be administered, if necessary, at appropriate intervals during surgery to provide sufficient levels of the antibiotic drug at the anticipated moments of greatest exposure to infective organisms.
In surgery where the occurrence of infection may be particularly devastating (e.g., open-heart surgery and prosthetic arthroplasty), the prophylactic administration of cefazolin may be continued for 3 to 5 days following the completion of surgery.
2.3 Patients with Renal Impairment
Cefazolin for Injection may be used in patients with reduced renal function with the following dosage adjustments: Patients with a creatinine clearance of 55 mL/min. or greater or a serum creatinine of 1.5 mg % or less can be given full doses. Patients with creatinine clearance rates of 35 to 54 mL/min. or serum creatinine of 1.6 to 3.0 mg % can also be given full doses but dosage should be restricted to at least 8 hour intervals. Patients with creatinine clearance rates of 11 to 34 mL/min. or serum creatinine of 3.1 to 4.5 mg % should be given 1/2 the usual dose every 12 hours. Patients with creatinine clearance rates of 10 mL/min. or less or serum creatinine of 4.6 mg % or greater should be given 1/2 the usual dose every 18 to 24 hours. All reduced dosage recommendations apply after an initial loading dose appropriate to the severity of the infection. Patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis: [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
2.4 Pediatric Population
In pediatric patients, a total daily dosage of 25 to 50 mg per kg (approximately 10 to 20 mg per pound) of body weight, divided into 3 or 4 equal doses, is effective for most mild to moderately severe infections. Total daily dosage may be increased to 100 mg per kg (45 mg per pound) of body weight for severe infections. Since safety for use in premature infants and in neonates has not been established, the use of cefazolin for injection in these patients is not recommended.
In pediatric patients with mild to moderate renal impairment (creatinine clearance of 70 to 40 mL/min.), 60 percent of the normal daily dose given in equally divided doses every 12 hours should be sufficient. In patients with moderate impairment (creatinine clearance of 40 to 20 mL/min.), 25 percent of the normal daily dose given in equally divided doses every 12 hours should be adequate. Pediatric patients with severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance of 20 to 5 mL/min.) may be given 10 percent of the normal daily dose every 24 hours. All dosage recommendations apply after an initial loading dose.
2.5 Preparation of Parenteral Solution
Parenteral drug products should be SHAKEN WELL when reconstituted, and inspected visually for particulate matter prior to administration. If particulate matter is evident in reconstituted fluids, the drug solutions should be discarded.
When reconstituted or diluted according to the instructions below, Cefazolin for Injection is stable for 24 hours at room temperature or for 10 days if stored under refrigeration (5°C or 41°F). Reconstituted solutions may range in color from pale yellow to yellow without a change in potency.
Single-Dose Vials
For Intramuscular injection, Intravenous direct (bolus) injection or Intravenous infusion, reconstitute with Sterile Water for Injection according to the following table. SHAKE WELL.
2.6 Intramuscular Administration
Reconstitute vials with Sterile Water for Injection according to the dilution table above. Shake well until dissolved. Cefazolin should be injected into a large muscle mass. Pain on injection is infrequent with Cefazolin for Injection.
2.7 Intravenous Administration
Direct (bolus) injection: Following reconstitution according to the above table, further dilute vials with approximately 5 mL Sterile Water for Injection. Inject the solution slowly over 3 to 5 minutes, directly or through tubing for patients receiving parenteral fluids (see list below).
Intermittent or continuous infusion: Dilute reconstituted Cefazolin for Injection in 50 to 100 mL of 1 of the following solutions:
Sodium Chloride Injection, USP
5% or 10% Dextrose Injection, USP
5% Dextrose in Lactated Ringer's Injection, USP
5% Dextrose and 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP
5% Dextrose and 0.45% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP
Lactated Ringer's Injection, USP
Invert Sugar 5% or 10% in Sterile Water for Injection
Ringer's Injection, USP
5% Sodium Bicarbonate Injection, USP
Single-dose vials:
1 g Cefazolin for Injection
5.1 Hypersensitivity Reactions to Cefazolin, Cephalosporins, Penicillins, or Other Beta-lactams
Before therapy with Cefazolin for Injection is instituted, careful inquiry should be made to determine whether the patient has had previous hypersensitivity reactions to cefazolin, cephalosporins, penicillins, or other drugs. If this product is given to penicillin-sensitive patients, caution should be exercised because cross-hypersensitivity among beta-lactam antibiotics has been clearly documented and may occur in up to 10% of patients with a history of penicillin allergy. If an allergic reaction to Cefazolin for Injection occurs, discontinue treatment with the drug. Serious acute hypersensitivity reactions may require treatment with epinephrine and other emergency measures, including oxygen, intravenous fluids, intravenous antihistamines, corticosteroids, pressor amines, and airway management, as clinically indicated.
5.2 Use in Patients with Renal Impairment
As with other β-lactam antibiotics, seizures may occur if inappropriately high doses are administered to patients with impaired renal function (creatinine clearance less than 55 mL/min.) [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)].
Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD) or pseudomembranous colitis has been reported with nearly all antibacterial agents, including cefazolin, and may range in severity from mild to life-threatening. Therefore, it is important to consider this diagnosis in patients who present with diarrhea subsequent to the administration of antibacterial agents.
Treatment with antibacterial agents alters the normal flora of the colon and may permit overgrowth of clostridia. Studies indicate that a toxin produced by Clostridium difficile is a primary cause of "antibiotic-associated colitis."
Cefazolin for Injection, as with all cephalosporins, should be prescribed with caution in individuals with a history of gastrointestinal disease, particularly colitis.
After the diagnosis of CDAD or pseudomembranous colitis has been established, therapeutic measures should be initiated. Mild cases of pseudomembranous colitis usually respond to drug discontinuation alone. In moderate to severe cases, consideration should be given to management with fluids and electrolytes, protein supplementation, and treatment with an oral antibacterial drug clinically effective against C. difficile colitis.
5.4 Risk of Development of Drug-resistant Bacteria
Prescribing cefazolin in the absence of a proven or strongly suspected bacterial infection or a prophylactic indication is unlikely to provide benefit to the patient and increases the risk of the development of drug-resistant bacteria.
As with other antimicrobials, prolonged use of cefazolin for injection may result in overgrowth of nonsusceptible microorganisms. Repeated evaluation of the patient's condition is essential. Should superinfection occur during therapy, appropriate measures should be taken.
5.5 Drug/Laboratory Test Interactions
Urinary Glucose
The administration of cefazolin may result in a false-positive reaction for glucose in the urine with Benedict's solution, Fehling's solution or with CLINITEST® tablets. It is recommended that glucose tests based on enzymatic glucose oxidase reactions (e.g., CLINISTIX® ) be used.
Coombs' Test
Positive direct Coombs' tests have been reported during treatment with cefazolin. In hematologic studies or in transfusion cross-matching procedures when antiglobulin tests are performed on the minor side or in Coombs' testing of newborns whose mothers have received cephalosporin antibacterial drugs before parturition, it should be recognized that a positive Coombs' test may be due to the drug.
The following reactions have been reported:
Hypersensitivity reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]
The following adverse reactions were reported from clinical trials:
Gastrointestinal: Diarrhea, oral candidiasis (oral thrush), vomiting, nausea, stomach cramps, anorexia, and pseudomembranous colitis. Onset of pseudomembranous colitis symptoms may occur during or after antibiotic treatment [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)]. Nausea and vomiting have been reported rarely.
Allergic: Anaphylaxis, eosinophilia, itching, drug fever, skin rash, Stevens-Johnson syndrome.
Hematologic: Neutropenia, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, thrombocythemia.
Hepatic: Transient rise in SGOT, SGPT, and alkaline phosphatase levels has been observed. As with other cephalosporins, reports of hepatitis have been received.
Renal: As with other cephalosporins, reports of increased BUN and creatinine levels, as well as renal failure, have been received.
Local Reactions: Rare instances of phlebitis have been reported at site of injection. Pain at the site of injection after intramuscular administration has occurred infrequently. Some induration has occurred.
Other Reactions: Genital and anal pruritus (including vulvar pruritus, genital moniliasis, and vaginitis).
6.2 Cephalosporin-class Adverse Reactions
In addition to the adverse reactions listed above that have been observed in patients treated with cefazolin, the following adverse reactions and altered laboratory tests have been reported for cephalosporin-class antibacterials: Stevens-Johnson syndrome, erythema multiforme, toxic epidermal necrolysis, renal impairment, toxic nephropathy, aplastic anemia, hemolytic anemia, hemorrhage, hepatic impairment including cholestasis, and pancytopenia.
Probenecid may decrease renal tubular secretion of cephalosporins when used concurrently, resulting in increased and more prolonged cephalosporin blood levels.
Reproduction studies have been performed in rats, mice, and rabbits at doses up to 25 times the human dose and have revealed no evidence of impaired fertility or harm to the fetus due to cefazolin. There are, however, no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. Because animal reproduction studies are not always predictive of human response, this drug should be used during pregnancy only if clearly needed.
8.2 Labor and Delivery
When cefazolin has been administered prior to caesarean section, drug levels in cord blood have been approximately one quarter to one third of maternal drug levels. The drug appears to have no adverse effect on the fetus.
8.3 Nursing Mothers
Cefazolin for Injection is present in very low concentrations in the milk of nursing mothers. Caution should be exercised when Cefazolin for Injection is administered to a nursing woman.
Safety and effectiveness for use in premature infants and neonates have not been established. See Dosage and Administration (2.4) for recommended dosage in pediatric patients older than 1 month.
Of the 920 subjects who received cefazolin in clinical studies, 313 (34%) were 65 years and over, while 138 (15%) were 75 years and over. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between these subjects and younger subjects. Other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients, but greater sensitivity of some older individuals cannot be ruled out.
This drug is known to be substantially excreted by the kidney, and the risk of toxic reactions to this drug may be greater in patients with impaired renal function. Because elderly patients are more likely to have decreased renal function, care should be taken in dose selection, and it may be useful to monitor renal function [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) and Warnings and Precautions (5.2)].
When cefazolin for injection is administered to patients with low urinary output because of impaired renal function (creatinine clearance less than 55 mL/min.), lower daily dosage is required [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) and Warnings and Precautions (5.2)].
Cefazolin for Injection, USP is a semi-synthetic cephalosporin for parenteral administration. It is the sodium salt of 3-{[(5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)thio]-methyl}-8-oxo-7-[2-(1H-tetrazol-1-yl)acetamido]-5-thia-1-azabicyclo[4.2.0]oct-2-ene-2-carboxylic acid.
Structural Formula:
Cefazolin for Injection, USP is a sterile white or off-white powder or crystalline powder.
The sodium content is 48 mg (2 mEq sodium ion) per 1 gram of cefazolin.
Cefazolin is an antibacterial drug [see Microbiology (12.4)].
The pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic relationship for cefazolin has not been evaluated in patients.
After intramuscular administration of Cefazolin for Injection to normal volunteers, the mean serum concentrations were 37 mcg/mL at 1 hour and 3 mcg/mL at 8 hours following a 500 mg dose, and 64 mcg/mL at 1 hour and 7 mcg/mL at 8 hours following a 1 gram dose.
Studies have shown that following intravenous administration of Cefazolin for Injection to normal volunteers, mean serum concentrations peaked at approximately 185 mcg/mL and were approximately 4 mcg/mL at 8 hours for a 1 gram dose.
The serum half-life for Cefazolin for Injection is approximately 1.8 hours following intravenous administration and approximately 2 hours following intramuscular administration.
In a study (using normal volunteers) of constant intravenous infusion with dosages of 3.5 mg/kg for 1 hour (approximately 250 mg) and 1.5 mg/kg the next 2 hours (approximately 100 mg), Cefazolin for Injection produced a steady serum level at the third hour of approximately 28 mcg/mL.
Studies in patients hospitalized with infections indicate that Cefazolin for Injection produces mean peak serum levels approximately equivalent to those seen in normal volunteers.
Bile levels in patients without obstructive biliary disease can reach or exceed serum levels by up to 5 times; however, in patients with obstructive biliary disease, bile levels of Cefazolin for Injection are considerably lower than serum levels (< 1 mcg/mL).
In synovial fluid, the level of Cefazolin for Injection becomes comparable to that reached in serum at about 4 hours after drug administration.
Studies of cord blood show prompt transfer of Cefazolin for Injection across the placenta. Cefazolin for Injection is present in very low concentrations in the milk of nursing mothers.
Cefazolin for Injection is excreted unchanged in the urine. In the first 6 hours approximately 60% of the drug is excreted in the urine and this increases to 70% to 80% within 24 hours. Cefazolin for Injection achieves peak urine concentrations of approximately 2,400 mcg/mL and 4,000 mcg/mL respectively following 500 mg and 1 gram intramuscular doses.
In patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (2 L/hr.), Cefazolin for Injection produced mean serum levels of approximately 10 and 30 mcg/mL after 24 hours' instillation of a dialyzing solution containing 50 mg/L and 150 mg/L, respectively. Mean peak levels were 29 mcg/mL (range 13 to 44 mcg/mL) with 50 mg/L (3 patients), and 72 mcg/mL (range 26 to 142 mcg/mL) with 150 mg/L (6 patients). Intraperitoneal administration of Cefazolin for Injection is usually well tolerated.
Controlled studies on adult normal volunteers, receiving 1 gram 4 times a day for 10 days, monitoring CBC, SGOT, SGPT, bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase, BUN, creatinine, and urinalysis, indicated no clinically significant changes attributed to Cefazolin for Injection.
Cefazolin is a bactericidal agent that acts by inhibition of bacterial cell wall synthesis.
Predominant mechanisms of bacterial resistance to cephalosporins include the presence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases and enzymatic hydrolysis.
Antimicrobial Activity
Cefazolin has been shown to be active against most isolates of the following microorganisms, both in vitro and in clinical infections [see Indications and Usage (1)].
Gram-Positive Bacteria
Streptococcus agalactiae
Methicillin-resistant staphylococci are uniformly resistant to cefazolin.
Gram-Negative Bacteria
Most isolates of indole positive Proteus (Proteus vulgaris), Enterobacter spp., Morganella morganii, Providencia rettgeri, Serratia spp., and Pseudomonas spp. are resistant to cefazolin.
Susceptibility Testing
For specific information regarding susceptibility test interpretive criteria and associated test methods and quality control standards recognized by FDA for this drug, please see: https://www.fda.gov/STIC.
Mutagenicity studies and long-term studies in animals to determine the carcinogenic potential of Cefazolin for Injection have not been performed.
Cefazolin for Injection, USP is supplied as a sterile white or off-white powder or crystalline powder. Each vial contains cefazolin sodium equivalent to 1 gram of cefazolin.
As with other cephalosporins, cefazolin tends to darken depending on storage conditions; within the stated recommendations, however, product potency is not adversely affected.
Before reconstitution protect from light and store at 20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F) [see USP Controlled Room Temperature].
Patients should be advised that allergic reactions, including serious allergic reactions could occur and that serious reactions require immediate treatment and discontinuation of cefazolin. Patients should report to their health care provider any previous allergic reactions to cefazolin, cephalosporins, penicillins, or other similar antibacterials.
Patients should be advised that diarrhea is a common problem caused by antibiotics, which usually ends when the antibiotic is discontinued. Sometimes after starting treatment with antibacterials, patients can develop watery and bloody stools (with or without stomach cramps and fever) even as late as two or more months after having taken the last dose of the antibacterials. If this occurs, patients should contact a physician as soon as possible.
Patients should be counseled that antibacterial drugs, including Cefazolin for Injection should only be used to treat bacterial infections. They do not treat viral infections (e.g., the common cold). When Cefazolin for Injection is prescribed to treat a bacterial infection, patients should be told that although it is common to feel better early in the course of therapy, the medication should be taken exactly as directed. Skipping doses or not completing the full course of therapy may (1) decrease the effectiveness of the immediate treatment and (2) increase the likelihood that bacteria will develop resistance and will not be treatable by Cefazolin for Injection or other antibacterial drugs in the future.

Despite her mother's wishes for her to become a graphic designer, Anna Martinez, an artist and visual merchandiser originally from Fort Wayne, Indiana, moved to Indianapolis to attend Herron School of the Art and Design in 2009 to study painting. It was not until her junior year, that she knew she wanted to be a professional collage artist.
Martinez is now utilizing the opportunity to display her artwork in the windows of downtown Indianapolis through the St'Art Up 317 program.
Martinez's minimalist collage approach to art is inspired by her favorite painter, Ellsworth Kelly. Kelly created shaped canvases and did a series of postcard collages, which sparked Martinez's interest in collage work. Because of the amount of time it took to mix paint and make sure all the colors were right, Martinez decided to let go of painting. Working in collage on the other hand, the colors are already available and ready to be put together fairly quickly.
Her process begins with searching through her collection of fashion magazines to find pieces and start cutting with no particular idea in mind. Then, Martinez determines what images and colors work best together. From start to finish, the process of an entire piece takes about two hours. Experimenting with new materials and methods keeps things interesting for Martinez.
"There's always something new to do, materials-wise or process-wise," said Martinez.
The St'Art Up 317 program has given Martinez the backing and credibility she feels is essential to her success as an artist. "I'm trying to gain connections to different people trying to do the same thing," she says.
Thinking outside the box in terms of art is her challenge, being an individual artist. "It's extremely hard getting those ideas going," she says. She believes local artists have the potential to upgrade downtown Indianapolis creatively and artistically with the use of abandoned retail spaces.
Down the road, Martinez would like to use her talents in film and television, freelancing as a set stylist and wardrobe stylist for photo shoots and commercials. Her ideal career is to travel, doing shows solely as a studio artist, ensuring she will always have time to spend on her own creative ventures. Martinez says her art will always be about pleasing herself, not just a client.

Malayalis attuned to beating humidity were in for a big shock when the January weather took an overnight about-turn from sticky to chilly. This is perhaps a first for Kerala leaving folks shivering in the early morning fog. The cold season has given reason enough for another first, a soup to warm up people. The Taiwanese beef noodle soup being ladled out at 'The soup Shop' on the Kaloor-Kadavanthra stretch in Kochi is doing just that.
Think soup and what pops up in mind are sweet-corn chicken, mutton, crab, or veg varieties. However, contrary to expectations, the serve here is a bowlful of piping hot soup with the aroma of tender beef and fresh peppercorns filling the room. In pure Taiwanese style, here's a bowlful high on the health factor.
Beef stock is set aside while the meat gets cooked. What's added to the beef are salt, tomatoes, masalas, pepper, and bay leaves. The whole stuff is left to simmer over a low flame for about three hours. The pieces and the stock are then set aside. Huge chunks of meat are put in to get the sufficient quantity of stock. The chunks are diced into smaller bits only when the order is placed. The stock is then once again boiled along with broccoli and other vegetables as per customers' choice. Generous helpings of beef slices and pre-cooked noodles are blended in, in a final act.
No maida here to thicken the soup. What goes in are rice noodles with celery, lettuce, and spring onion for garnish.
As the 'Soup Shop' has started catering to the soup and salad health combo, a taste of the chef-special grilled chicken salad seasoned with olive oil and lemon is highly recommended.
Coming back to the beef soup, it's free of cream or corn flour padding. Beef tastes just like beef. The tasty soup packed with beef and fibre aplenty is a complete meal in itself. And with garlic bread to go for a bite, the broth is simply divine. This is no appetizer, but a full meal.

Search for the New Land ist ein Jazzalbum von Lee Morgan. Es wurde am 15. Februar 1964 bei Rudy Van Gelder in Englewood Cliffs aufgenommen und erschien 1966 auf dem Label Blue Note Records.

Das Album
Ted Gioia schreibt in seiner History of Jazz, dass Morgan die meiste Zeit seiner Karriere damit verbrachte, die Erfolgsformel von The Sidewinder zu wiederholen, "obwohl er in der Lage war, künstlerisch weniger Jukebox-kompatible Statements abzugeben, wie Search for the New Land". Dieses Album, nur wenige Wochen nach seiner Erfolgs-LP The Sidewinder aufgenommen, verschwand zunächst im Archiv und dessen Veröffentlichung wurde zwei Jahre zurückgehalten, weil das Material kein funkiger Nachfolger für den Überraschungshit war. Es war eines der wenigen Produktionen Morgans, die "von den Groove-betonten Patterns des The Sidewinder-Musters" abwich. So erforschte Morgan im Titelstück des Albums mit seinen Mitspielern, dem Gitarristen Grant Green, dem Pianisten Herbie Hancock, dem Tenorsaxophonisten Wayne Shorter, dem Bassisten Reggie Workman und dem Schlagzeuger Billy Higgins die modale Improvisation: Matt Leskovic beschrieb literarisch die Stimmung der Komposition:

"Wie zwei bewährte Seefahrer sinnen Morgan und Shorter voll Nostalgie über frühere Reisen, während ihr Schiff in der Rubato-Eröffnung über ansteigende Wellen aus Trillern und Becken rollt. Workman erspäht Land am entfernten Horizont und setzt tapfer den Kurs fort, indem er einen Unheil verkündenden Walzer-Groove anstimmt. Als die Rhythmusgruppe Dampf aufnimmt, singen Morgan und Shorter ihr gleiches Lied mit einer neu gefundenen Ausgelassenheit über die stetige Kraft ihrer Rhythmus-Mannschaft. Shorter wagt sich vorsichtig als erster und findet eine feste Basis, um durch alle Register seines Tenors zu jagen, und Morgan folgt ihm mit nachdenklichen und beschaulichen Grübeleien, jedoch immer noch im Blues verhaftet. Hancocks Comping ist bezwingend; man beachte seine nach einer zerbrochenen Schallplatte klingenden Wiederholungen, die mit Morgans Zurückzug in diesem Teil (6:00-6:10) kontrastieren und seine pulsierende Verbindung mit Higgins, die dem Trompeter Gelegenheit gibt, mit Polyrythmen zu experimentieren (6:20-6:30). Green hat ein swingendes Solo, bevor Hancocks derbe Blockakkorde die Gruppe zurück auf See führen und weiter zu den nächsten Unternehmungen."

Nat Hentoff wies in den Liner Notes des Albums auf den "pastoralen Sinn für Raum und das Fehlen von Druck" im Titelstück hin; hingegen sei das folgende The Joker aufgeschlossener, auch wenn hier eine "uneilige Atmosphäre herrscht." Mr. Kenyatta, das Morgan dem kenianischen Präsidenten Jomo Kenyatta widmete, demonstriere mit seiner staccatohaften Antriebskraft, dass Morgan nichts vom "schneidenden Reiz" (incisive zest) verloren habe, den seine Musik immer ausgemacht hat. Hingegen sei Melancholee mit seinem "auf entwaffnende Weise einfachen Thema" eine "Beschwörung des Jammers."

Jeff McMillan sieht in seiner Lee Morgan-Biografie den Albumtitel programmatisch; er sei auf dem Höhepunkt der amerikanischen Bürgerrechtsbewegung geschrieben worden und das Attentat auf John F. Kennedy lag nur drei Monate zurück:
"Morgans New Land war das Land der Gleichheit, ein Land frei von Rassendiskriminierung. Morgan hatte nie zuvor seine Kunst in solch sozial progressivem, oder in diesem Kontext politischen Bezugsrahmen dargestellt."

Zum Zeitpunkt der Aufnahmen zu dem Album wurde Lee Morgan erneut Mitglied von Art Blakeys Jazz Messengers (Free for All) und nahm erst wieder 1965 Platten unter eigenem Namen auf. Seine nächste Studiosession mit Jackie McLean und McCoy Tyner vom August 1964 wurde von Blue Note ebenso zurückgehalten und erschien erst 1980 unter dem Titel Tom Cat.

Titelliste
Lee Morgan: Search for the New Land. (Blue Note BLP 4169/BST 84169, CDP 7 84169-2)

Search for the New Land – 15:45
The Joker – 5:04
Mr. Kenyatta – 8:43
Melancholee – 6:14
Morgan the Pirate – 6:30

Alle Kompositionen stammen von Lee Morgan.

Rezeption
Kenny Mathieson hielt Search for the New Land für Morgans bestes Album, auch wenn es nie die "totemistische Bedeutung" (totemic significance) seines Vorgängers erreicht habe. Die Musiker seien hier erheblich experimenteller eingestellt als üblich, nicht nur mit den Verbindungen zu Hardbop und Soul-Jazz in der Person Grant Greens, sondern mit Wayne Shorter und Herbie Hancock in den modalen Ausrichtungen des Jazz, wie sie Miles Davis und John Coltrane verkörperten, als auch mit Reggie Workman und Billy Higgins in Richtung des New Thing, inspiriert von Coltrane und Ornette Coleman. Das Titelstück ist "eine erforschende Reise durch sich verändernde Stimmungen und Alternierung zwischen dunkel und hell, mit Shorters und Morgans besinnlichem Gang durch lange Soli". Gitarrist Green schafft hier eine heiterere Stimmung, aber Hancock bringt die Musik zur introspektiven Grundstimmung zurück, bevor der End-Chorus erfolgt. Ein weiterer herausragendes Titel sei Mr. Kenyatta; abgerundet werde das Album durch zwei etwas weniger Aufmerksamkeit absorbierende Titel, Melancholee und Morgan the Pirate. Lediglich The Joker sei die einzige von Morgans Kompositionen dieses Albums, das in der Manier von The Sidewinder konstruiert sei.

Scott Yanow vergab an das Album in Allmusic die Höchstbewertung von fünf Sternen und hielt es für eines der großartigsten von Lee Morgan. Die fünf Kompositionen des Trompeters verdienten es, "zu neuem Leben erweckt" zu werden. Die Musiker um Lee Morgan seien alle in besonders kreativer Form und erweitern die Grenzen des Hardbop, des modernen Mainstream Jazz dieser Periode. Das Resultat ist "ein durchweg stimulierender Set, der wiederholtes Hören lohnt". Auch Matt Leskovic ist der Meinung, dass Morgan mit Search for the New Land den Höhepunkt seiner Karriere erreicht habe, sowohl was die Ausweitung des Umfangs seiner Kompositionen angehe als auch hinsichtlich der Tiefe seiner Improvisationen.

Richard Cook und Brian Morton zeichnen das Album in The Penguin Guide to Jazz mit der Höchstnote von vier Sternen aus und nannten es einleitend "die Ausnahme. Im Gegensatz zu Morgans Output nach 1962, der ziemlich formelhaft ausfällt, war Search eine musikalische wie auch programmatische Erkundung." Die Anwesenheit Wayne Shorters und Herbie Hancock garantiere "ein Maß an lyrischer Unvorhersehbarkeit", das sich schon unmittelbar im Titelstück anzeige. Auch wenn The Joker zunächst wie ein Titel in Machart von The Sidewinder erscheine, sei dies ein "düster-verspielter, fast trügerischer Einfall". Das gewichtige Mr. Kenyatta zeige eine der (damals) denkbaren Entwicklungen in Morgans Musik an, während Melancholee und Morgan the Pirate "eher Titel von der Stange" sein. Insgesamt sei Search for the New Land eine ausgezeichnete, gesuchte Platte, und es sei bedauerlich, dass es – abgesehen von The Gigolo (1965) – nicht mehr davon gäbe.

Police brutality at Mardi Gras ignites outrage
About 1500 people rallied in Sydney on March 8 in protest against the alleged police violence at this year's Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras. Bryn Hutchinson, a former co-convener of Community Action Against Homophobia (CAAH), alleges that five police officers slammed him to the ground, kicked him, shackled him and beat him when he tried to cross Oxford St after the parade had finished. Hutchinson was then taken to Surry Hills police station and charged with "assaulting a police officer". Hutchinson says he was handcuffed during the alleged attack by the officers.

United States: Dems to blame for right gains
Republicans are trumpeting their big gains in the November 2 midterm elections as a mandate to turn the country sharply to the right. Don't buy it. Mainstream media commentary on the election was largely set before a single vote was cast. Voters would correct President Barack Obama's supposed leftward course in his first two years in office by sending a cabal of right-wingers to Congress. The scale of the Republican victories — especially in House of Representative races, where the party now holds a comfortable majority — cemented the media's impressions.
Long may Green Left serve the needs of ordinary folk not the whims of the capitalist behemoths who blot our landscape and blight our lives. I look forward to many more years of the Green Left!

GLOBAL - The Trans Pacific Partnership trade deal to be signed in New Zealand this Thursday is a toxic deal that would give dangerous new powers to the fossil fuel industry and pose a serious harm to the climate, according to the global climate campaign 350.org.
350.org is one of many organizations around the world who will be mobilizing its members to fight back against the TPP and block its final approval and implementation. In the United States, the organization has delivered tens of thousands of signatures to Congress and the White House calling on them to reject the deal.
This May, 350.org and international partners are organizing a week of action called "Break Free" when activists on nearly every continent will host major protests and direct action at some of the most devestating fossil fuel projects on the planet.


Abate: To decrease, or become less in strength or violence; as pain abates; a storm abates.
Over time, abate came to represent something diminishing in power, or diminishing in strength.
Abate passed through French before arriving in English. The Old French word abattre meant, to beat down. At this point, abate starts to resemble the original Latin meaning. Abate comes from two Latin words. The prefix ad means, to, toward, near, or next to. Ad joined the Latin verb batto, battere, meaning, to pound, to beat, or to hit. When the preposition "ad" bumped into the "b" in "battere," it assimilated. Adbattere became abbattere.
Took a long time for the word to become Abate, but, hey… it got there eventually.
In modern slang, to abate is to ignore what is necessary, while obsessing about what is meaningless.

The shops were side by side and the street was crowded. I met the man working in a shop selling audio product. Many speakers were displayed at the storefront and he was sitting on one of them.
He was surrounded by them. The place where he sat seemed to be a nice for those who were junkies for audio products. Yet it was too narrow for him. And he had nothing to do because no customers were coming. He looked at me while hunched his shoulders.

If that title reminds you of the "Soup Nazi" from Seinfled, well it should. And that's pretty much what's going on here. As of last week Apple has closed the path to downgrade from iOS7 to it's earlier versions of iOS 6. And by "closed" I mean it's gone, you can't do that, it's not going to happen fanboy!
Should this news be too much for you to live with.. there are always options, extreme though they may be. You could attempt to design the first jailbreak that solves this dilemma, or you could simply buy an older piece of hardware with your favorite version of iOS 6 still installed.
Sadly, if you are not a fan of iOS7 Apple has created the very definition of dilemma – a situation necessitating a choice between two equal, esp equally undesirable, alternatives. But that's the way the upgrade crumbles!

2. Use the Edge Highlighter tool (shaped like a marker in the Extract command's toolbox) to draw an outline around the object you wish to extract. Try to stay as close as possible to the edge of the object to avoid losing any piece of the object in the extraction. By default, the outline you draw appears in neon green in the preview.


Mark 11:22-24 "Have faith in God," Jesus answered. "Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them. Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.
This passage of Scripture is often called the Mechanics of Faith because it reveals how faith operates.
The domain of faith is the "heart" (your inner man) not your "head" (or your five senses). Faith functions through two important actions which is seeing with eyes of faith and declaring it with your mouth.
Faith starts by seeing it. Seeing what? Seeing God's Grace. When you see God's grace, He sees your faith!
He cries out "have mercy on me"! Even blind Bartemeus could see the grace of God.
And when you see the goodness and willingness of God's grace to meet any need in your life, God will see your faith! Faith declares or meditates the truth about God's Word.
In Mark 5 you can read the story of the woman with the issue of blood. The text says she heard about Jesus healing people and began to say to herself "if I can just touch his garments, I shall be healed." She was saying this to herself over and over and over. This is actually what Bible meditation is – to mutter over and over to yourself.
That day there were hundreds, possibly thousands of people who were pressing against Jesus and touching Him, but only one person touched Him with faith and Jesus felt power flow out of his body as this woman received her healing.
Both Bartemeus and this woman saw the goodness and grace of Jesus and that's when God sees your faith!
This is how you grow your faith – it's by seeing how good and gracious Jesus is! Faith doesn't grow because you are reading the Bible more and more or studying all the doctrines and theologies of the Bible. No, it's simply seeing how willing Jesus is to meet your every need! It's meditating upon what Jesus has done for you and is willing and able to do for you every day.
Faith grows by seeing how good and gracious Jesus is.


Many many thanks to all of our speakers, sponsors, exhibitors, volunteers, and everyone who came out to enjoy the beautiful day at Epworth! We have heard from so many people they loved the food and learned a lot – what more could we ask for? Perhaps just one thing: please go ahead and mark your calendars for VegFest 2015: June 13th! See you there with bells on!


The Senate first passed a resolution in 1999 designating National Military Appreciation Month. That declaration encouraged U.S. citizens to observe the month "in a symbol of unity, to honor the current and former members of the armed forces, including those who have died in the pursuit of freedom and peace."
The Army has consistently honored the contributions and sacrifices of our Soldiers, family members, civilians and veterans. The theme of this year's commemoration is Resiliency - honoring the perseverance of Soldiers, Family members, Civilians and Veterans since the birth of our Nation.
The month of May is characterized by six national observances highlighting the contributions of each segment of the Army community. This month ties in many Army themes, including physical fitness, Public Service Recognition, loyalty to the nation and remembrance of our veterans. Through the years, our Army has answered this nation's call, and our Soldiers, families and civilians have never wavered in their support and patriotism, despite the many challenges they have faced.
The Army will remember the sacrifices and victories of the past, and salute Soldiers, families, civilians and veterans for their resilience since 1775. Ours is a time-honored tradition.
"It should be clear to all that women are a major force in operations today. We're not starting from the ground up in the assessment period, women are integral in all theaters of combat as we speak. We already know that the level of contributions that women make is at the core of what makes the Army as great as it is today."
"I started realizing a lot of the obstacles in front of me were just illusions I'd put in front of myself and I started swimming again and I started going skiing. I started realizing a lot of things I used to do I could still do, I can do with an adapted piece of equipment. America's behind me 100 percent in terms of equipment and facilities and expertise and so the community was there in a way that I had never seen before."

Q: NMOS current flowing equally in both directions in SPICE simulation I am trying to characterize this nmos on Xyce simulator (and trying to change its present Vthreshold) and am first DC sweeping the gate and measuring the current through the nmos.
I run into this strange issue where even if I sweep Vg from 0-1.8V and wire drain/source interchangeably, I find the same current going through the nmos. And it has an unusually high resistance.
Two questions, am I doing wrong with this NMOS? AND, I am using this SPICE 180nm BSIM3 model and cannot find how to change Vthreshold on it. With these models is that generally something one can do?

And here is the output file that shows current flowing equally in both directions. Both output files show the same current at the same timestep

UPDATE:
I have tried setting the substrate node to ground in this circuit but still get symmetrical source-drain current behavior.

A: In a real, physical NMOS transistor fabricated using a planar technology the source and drain terminals are in fact interchangeable. The "source" is therefore the terminal at the lower voltage and the "drain" is at the higher voltage. However, you do want to connect the body to the lowest voltage in the circuit to prevent forward biasing the body/source junction.
You generally cannot change the threshold voltage directly in a BSIM3 model. These models are very complex and with a great deal of interaction between the model parameters.

A: As @Elliot said, the transistor (because it is symmetrical) does not know which terminal is the drain and which is the source, it is only a matter of potentials.
To reply to your questions:

am I doing wrong with this NMOS?

Not really, results show as expected.

how to change Vthreshold on it

Threshold voltage can only be changed by changing its bulk voltage (see body effect).

libdivide allows you to replace expensive integer divides with comparatively cheap multiplication and bitshifts. Compilers usually do this, but only when the divisor is known at compile time. libdivide allows you to take advantage of it at runtime. The result is that integer division can become a lot faster.

■ Games similar to drugs
Computer games can be addictive, a new study claims. Such an addition is essentially comparable with alcohol or marijuana addiction, according to Charite Hospital in Berlin. "Excessive computer gaming probably activates the same structures in the brain as physical drugs," said Sabine Gruesser from the university clinic's interdisciplinary addiction research group. The study compared 15 casual gamers with 15 excessive gamers. Players who met at least three criteria of addiction such as insatiable craving, withdrawal symptoms or the neglect of other interests were described as excessive. The test subjects were shown images of computer games, alcohol bottles and neutral objects. For the excessive gamers, the computer game scenes set off a much stronger stimulus in the brain than for the other subjects.

HK Link REIT price set
The price for the world's largest property trust in Hong Kong has been set at the upper end of the range at HK$10.3 (US$1.32), a press report said yesterday. The price means the initial public offering (IPO) of the Link real estate investment trust (REIT) will raise HK$19.8 billion. Citing unnamed sources, the Ming Pao daily said the government is expected to exercise its overallotment option in full, selling an additional 211.6 million units. This would increase the IPO size to HK$22 billion. Higher interest rates have dampened investor enthusiasm with the retail tranche of the REIT receiving a much cooler response the second time around following a legal challenge that delayed the original plan last December.

GM, Chery resolve dispute
General Motors Corp and its major South Korean subsidiary have reached an out-of-court settlement with China's Chery Automobile Co (奇瑞) in an intellectual property dispute over the design of a small vehicle, the automaker said on Saturday. "GM Daewoo Auto and Technology Co [GMDAT], General Motors Corp and Chery Automobile Co have reached a settlement Agreement, which has resolved all disputes among GMDAT, GM and Chery. Hence all current lawsuits and related claims have been withdrawn," GM said in a statement. Malcom Bricklin, Chery's US partner, said the agreement clears the way for a smoother introduction of the newly designed, Chinese-made vehicles in the US, starting in 2007.

Pioneer to restructure
Japan's struggling Pioneer Corp plans to scale down its DVD recorder business and cut 1,000 jobs or 10 percent of its domestic workforce as part of its restructuring, a report said yesterday. President Kaneo Ito and chairman Kanya Matsumoto, who is from the founder's family, will step down to take responsibility for the electronics manufacturer's dismal performance, the Nihon Keizai Shimbun business daily reported. The package of retrenchment measures is likely to be officially approved at a board meeting today, the paper said, without naming its sources. Executive vice president Tamihiko Sudo is likely to be appointed as the firm's new president early next month, the report said. Under the restructuring plan, Pioneer will stop production of its current line of DVD recorders and procure them from low-cost manufacturer Funai Electric Co of Japan, the report said.

Monster Specs Supersonic Scout vs Unmanned Aircraft
lswcap
The SR-71 is a strategic reconnaissance aircraft developed by Lockheed Martin in the 1960s. Of course, this name is better known as the Blackbird. All blackbirds produced until retirement in 1990 were in their 32s. Blackbird was called the fastest manned aircraft in the world, flying at an altitude of 26km to Mach 3.3.
Recently, Boeing has announced the Son of Blackbird concept model, which can fly at Mach 5 beyond the SR-71 during SciTech, a forum held by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics.
Sun of Blackbird has a monster spec. It is premised on a flight speed of 6,000 km / h, at Mach 5, which can lightly defeat the father of the Blackbird, Mach 3.3. To this end, the power source includes a jet engine and a scramjet for supersonic flight. In addition, the base of the aircraft is flat and has an anomalous delta wing. In the case of a flat floor, it plays a role of obtaining lift by shock waves generated when supersonic flying. In addition, two air inlets are added to the structure to fit the scramjet.
When you look at the gas from above, you have a sharp, pointed jockey. Surface smooth curve. This structure naturally reduces resistance when flying supersonic. At the same time, adiabatic compression minimizes gas heating and can be expected to boost stealth performance not captured by radar.
The Boeing X-43 tester in 2004 already had a Mach 9.68 speed of 12,144 km / h. The next X-51A is equipped with Multidisciplinary Design Optimization (MDD), an integrated design optimization for supersonic airframe design. These techniques and know-how are also reflected in Sun of Blackbird.
As I mentioned earlier, Lockheed Martin is the one who developed Blackbird. To be precise, it was developed by Skunk works under Lockheed. This is under development by DARPA, the US Department of Higher Research, and is now developing the genuine Blackbird son SR-72.
The SR-72 is aiming for a maximum speed Mach 6 at an altitude of 30,000 to 60,000 m and aims its first flight in 2030. In addition to the jet engine that takes off and then accelerates to Mach 3, it uses a Turbine Rocket Combined Cycle (TRCC) engine with a dual ramjet engine as well as Boeing to gain momentum in the supersonic range. Sun of Blackbird is likely to compete with the SR-72. When the actual Sun of Blackbird is developed, it will be 37m, similar to the SR-71.
Boeing and Lockheed Martin are developing supersonic reconnaissance aircraft. But not only in the US but also in China, competition for supersonic aircraft development is expected to take off. Chinese Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation (CASIC), a state-owned enterprise, is developing Teng Yun. It is a two – stage launch, but the second – stage rocket can be reused, two tons of cargo and five more astronauts. However, even if only one stage is used, it can carry 10 to 15 tons, and it is said that it can be dedicated to military use.
Another agency, the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC), also plans to develop a turbo-aided rocket-augmented ram / scramjet engine (TRRE) engine technology for supersonic flight in August 2016 by 2020, We have announced plans to realize air flight.
In this way, military powers including the United States and China are competing to develop supersonic reconnaissance aircraft. Supersonic reconnaissance can be used for supersonic reconnaissance at high altitude, which helps to increase the defensive power. However, the performance of reconnaissance satellites is higher than that of the past, and the availability of drones is increasing. In contrast, supersonic reconnaissance may increase the question of its usefulness due to excessive manufacturing and operating costs.
In fact, the USAF Air Force Research Laboratory and the aircraft manufacturer Kratos are developing stealth-capable drone and unmanned aerial vehicles. It can be developed in a variety of forms depending on its use, such as maneuvering or automatic tracking.
The advantage of this type of unmanned aerial vehicle is that it can reduce low operating costs and human and material damage. The pilot may be able to blackout the strong gravitational acceleration pressure of over 10G during the battle, causing the loss of consciousness and causing it to crash. If unmanned aerial vehicles appear in all markets, pilot life protection can help. In addition, the fact that the unit cost of gas is lowered makes it possible to use a large amount of drones as a strategic advantage.
Mako, the unmanned aerial vehicle under development by Klatos, designs based on the company's BQM-167A. When taking off, a rocket engine can be used as an aid, allowing you to take off immediately without using a long runway. After takeoff, use the turbo fan engine to fly. Of course, you can mount equipment or weapons on your aircraft.
Mako can fly in a wide range from 6m to as high as 15,000m. The speed is 1,100 km / h and the flightable range is 1,130 km on a one-way basis. Gas prices range from $ 1.5 million to $ 2 million, which can boost power at a lower cost than expensive fighters.
Klatos is also developing Valkyrie, a larger unmanned aircraft model than Mako. Length is 8.8m and wingspan is 6.7m. It is equipped with a turbo fan engine and features a long cruising range that can cross the Pacific Ocean. The altitude can range from 15m to 13,700m. When the mission is over, use the parachute to return to the ground. The gas or the component itself can then be reused.
If such an unmanned aerial vehicle actually appears, a drones may be engaged in a dogfight, or a new type of intelligence warfare may take place in place of the high-performance high-cost astronaut introduced above. The concept of the next-generation fighter could change itself.

Call for Proposals on Communication and Place, Identity and Change
Posted by Sandy Heierbacher | March 20th, 2007
The American Communication Association (ACA) is inviting proposals for its 2007 Annual Conference held October 4-6, 2007 on the Southern Methodist University's (SMU) Taos, New Mexico campus.The theme of this year's conference is "Frontiers of Communication: Determining Place, Establishing Identity, and Shaping Change". Descriptions of the themes are posted below. The American Communication Association is open to all participants. Please submit papers and panels to Rita Kirk (rkirk@smu.edu). All submissions should be submitted electronically. You will receive notification that the submission has been received, and again later when the panels and schedules are posted. Student submissions are welcome. The deadline for submitting papers and panels is May 31, 2007. Acceptance notices will be sent early in July. The convention will cost $150 USD for professionals and full-time professors and $75 for students. For more information visit the ACA website: www.americancomm.org. Themes include:
Determining Place -Objective and Subjective Contexts
By examining how communication defines circumstance, conditions, factors, state of affairs, situation, scene, and backgrounds, the populace forms categories consisting of communities and groups in which to make meaning. During the first day of the conference, participants will examine such themes as: How do we construct places or socially shared contexts? How do we make the places known to others? What role does ecology play in communication? How do we learn the fabrics of socially shared contexts in traditional and virtual settings? Do newly created places provide for more or less expression? Are all contexts virtual in that we perceive them according to our own templates of reality and how does this impact communication? How is the substitution of nonhuman for human technology, transforming our lives into controlled environments and affecting the selection of communication channels and participants?
Shaping Change through Communication
Successful action, movements, operations, engagement, power, influence, happenings, events, and activities are bringing people together to shape society. During the final day of the conference, participants will focus on how actions link place and identity to create virtual and electronic campaigns, many of which have given previously silent people more visibility to take part in such movements to transform their lives and communities. Topics such as The Third Force — how people are coming together via the Internet to impact social problems — from Hurricane Katrina to hunger. What are the social, cultural, and technological factors that facilitate or hinder people from working with each other from different locations? Do we need a new "place" to foster collaboration? How do we communicate what we need and what we can offer across boundaries? How do we create a shared social context so we can organize and coordinate our actions? In a society that wants instant, preformed solutions to social issues, how do we find the language to bind rather than divide us?
Establishing Identities – Exogenous and Indigenous Identities
Through examining the roles of participants, contributors, entrants, competitors, players, and candidates, the second day focuses on the native and the innovative roles people play when communicating. Who are we, traditional people or displaced people in a diasporic world? A networked world? How do we communicate "we"? Are "we" changing all the time? Are we empowered to revive or revise who we are? Are we free to choose how to express who we are? Who will be counted in "we" vs.
"them"? How do we communicate to people that we are (not) one of them?
The effects of a virtual society on multiculturalism: are we more homogenous because of the Internet or less so? In a culture that tends to believe deeply that in general 'bigger is better' how do we humanize a McDonaldized society? Do we define our society as intracultural or Multicultural? How do we protect and pass down our oral traditions and ceremony in a fast paced society? Does technology help or hinder the preservation of storytelling?

Competition leads to better service
By Marj Moore, 08/22/2016
Talofa, and good luck to Talofa Airways, Samoa's newest commercial airline which is being officially launched today.
For Tole'afoa Jeffrey Hunter and his wife Maria Westerlund-Hunter, it is clear they have already put in the months of planning, not to mention a hefty financial investment to purchase the planes and then there has been the wait for the requisite approvals to fly in the Pacific.
So while great planning was, and is necessary, some good luck will no doubt be welcome too.
But do we really need another airline?
We already have two airlines, Polynesian Airlines and Samoa Air which provide services between the two Samoas.
It seems we do, if recent events and passenger experiences are anything to go by.
In fact last Thursday (see page 15) the Polynesian Airlines C.E.O. Seiuli Alvin Tuala was called in for a "Please explain" testimony in American Samoa before a House committee where lawmakers voiced public complaints over the airline's service over the last few weeks.
Complaints included passengers suffering long delays for some flights and people waiting at the airport for hours - in some cases 12 hours — without knowing when they would depart.
These complaints don't cover the laissez faire attitude to departure times from Fagali'i Airport, Samoa where it was not unusual for your flight to leave an hour later than scheduled with little or no notice until you attempt to move into the departure lounge.
For those people who have business appointments and have planned to return from Pago on the same day, it adds extra stress and uncertainty to travel plans.
But it's often experiences such as these that lead to better services.
Take for example Sir Richard Branson.
According to the billionaire businessman, many of his own endeavours were born out of frustrations he had with business – a good example being Virgin Airlines.
The idea came, he said, after American Airlines canceled an undersold flight and rebooked him and other passengers on a flight the next day. Rather than wait, Branson, who had already found success with Virgin Records, rented a plane, put out a sign at the airport that said "Virgin Air, $39 single flight" and ultimately filled his first plane.
"I have a philosophy: Screw it, just do it."
"If you have an idea that can make a difference in other people's lives, just get on and do it. I've been at it for 50 years. It's a long, hard, grinding process in the early days and then hopefully there will come a time when you've climbed over the wall, your company is secure, and you can start being bolder and bolder, and end up realizing the sky's not the limit and maybe go to space or do some out of the world things. Throw yourself into it, and have a lot of fun along the way."
After that, Branson decided that he was fed up with airlines that didn't care about their passengers and he wanted to do something about it. A phone call to Boeing to find out if they had any 747s for sale and an airline was born.
Here in Samoa we will now be able to make choices about the airline we will use and you can bet that with three of them vying for our custom, we can expect the courtesy and good service we deserve.
And correct departure times.

HomeNewsStubbs launching broadside against carbon tax
Stubbs launching broadside against carbon tax
By James Wood
Thursday, Oct. 6th, 2016
Lakeland MP Shannon Stubbs. (Stock Photo)
Shannon Stubbs is unhappy about the carbon tax.
The tax was put forward by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Monday, and is planned to start at $10 per tonne for all of Canada by 2018. The rest of the plan will see the tax increase by $10 per year until it reaches $50 in 2022, with provinces and territories having the choice of implementing a cap and trade system or a tax, and choice of how to use the revenue.
The federal government will impose a carbon price in the absence of the provinces and territories putting one in place. The move has had a mixed reaction, with Alberta premier Rachel Notley saying she would not support the proposal in the absence of an approved pipeline.
Stubbs, who represents the riding of Lakeland in the House of Commons, discussed the newly-proposed tax on Tuesday afternoon with 106.1 The Goat, saying that she agreed with the provincial leaders who had a negative reaction to the idea.
"I think the important thing is that this carbon tax being proposed is not about environmental policy, it's a cash grab," said Stubbs.
"So, experts generally agree that a carbon tax that is aimed to reduce emissions needs to be around the $150 to $200 mark, so, the Liberals are not announcing that because it is not politically palatable. No government in Canada has implemented that, despite the fact that the mass majority of jurisdictions in Canada already have some approach to carbon pricing, but that's the main issue. This is about revenue generation, it's not about environmental policy."
Stubbs also said that the tax would raise prices and all goods and services across the country, and will harm the energy sector, which plays a large role in the economy of the Lakeland riding.
"It is a tax hike, which will increase the cost of living, and the cost of literally everything, because that's how the economy works, at the very worst time," said Stubbs.
Stubbs's plan to try and combat the tax is starting off with a petition on her website against the tax.
"We are asking for Canadians to speak out about not wanting this unilateral imposition of a tax increase which will increase the cost of living for everybody," said Stubbs.
"What's concerning about this is that we can have a fact based conversation about environmental policy, and environmental outcomes, but this carbon tax plan is not it."
Stubbs will be back in the riding next week for meetings, before returning to Ottawa for five weeks.

Cichla o "tucunaré", conocidos por este nombre en el Brasil, es un género de quince especies descritas de peces de la familia de las Cichlidae. Kullander & Ferreira (2006) describieron a nueve especies hace poco  y sugieren que el género puede incluir a 5-15 más especies, aún por describir.

El género incluye importantes peces de pecera, como Cichla orinocensis. Las especies de Cichla están entre los más grandes cíclidos, con una especie, (C. temensis), de más de 90 cm. Son ampliamente conocidas por ser especies típicas de pesca deportiva donde son conocidos como "peacock bass", además de ser criados en la piscicultura por su sabrosa carne, además de ser los únicos controles biológicos efectivos contra las tilapias, debido a su enorme tamaño (120 a 180 cm), su feroz comportamiento y voraz apetito. Fueron introducidos, en general en embalses, en varias cuencas alrededor del mundo debido al interés de la pesca deportiva. Generan impactos en la comunidad de peces nativos cuando son introducidos, reduciendo la diversidad, especialmente de las espécies de talla pequeña.

Q: SwingWorker not executing doInBackGround() I will be needing a swing worker for a project that I'm working on, so I attempted to use it. I've tried to use it as shown below, however, this program produces only the "Doing swing stuff" output.
How can I get the SwingWorker to complete the doInBackGround method?
import javax.swing.SwingWorker;

public class WorkerTest {

public static void main(String[] args) {
    Worker a = new Worker();
    a.execute();
    System.out.println("Doing swing stuff");

}

static class Worker extends SwingWorker<Void, Void> {

    protected void done() {
        System.out.println("done");
    }

    @Override
    protected Void doInBackground(){
        try {
            System.out.println("working");
            Thread.sleep(5000);

        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        return null;
    }
}
}

A: Change:
public static void main(String[] args) {
    Worker a = new Worker();
    a.execute();
    System.out.println("Doing swing stuff");
}

To:
public static void main(String[] args) {
    Worker a = new Worker();
    a.execute();
    System.out.println("Doing swing stuff");
    JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(null, "Cancel", "Cancel this task?", JOptionPane.DEFAULT_OPTION);
}

The option pane (being open) keeps the Event Dispatch Thread alive.
