Synspira's Novel Glycopolymer Proves Effective Against Antibiotic Resistance
CAMBRIDGE, Mass.– Synspira, a privately held company developing a new class of inhaled glycopolymer-based therapeutics for the treatment of pulmonary disease, today announced the results of a study exploring poly-N (acetyl, arginyl) glucosamine (PAAG) as a potential new treatment for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The full study, "In Vitro Activity of Novel Glycopolymer Against Clinical Isolates of Multidrug-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus," is published in PLOS ONE.
The study was conducted by Synedgen, a pioneering biotechnology company using the science of glycomics to discover and develop polysaccharide-based drugs that enhance and mimic the innate immune system. Synspira has an exclusive license from Synedgen to the Glycomics Technology Platform for the development of inhaled therapeutics in pulmonary indications.
MRSA is a contagious bacterial infection, often resistant to numerous antibiotics, making it increasingly challenging to treat. More than 2 million people in the U.S. every year acquire serious antibiotic-resistant MRSA infections. The prevalence of MRSA in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) is increasing steadily and is a significant contributor to pulmonary decline.
Synspira is developing SNSP113 as part of its new class of glycopolymers to serve as an adjunctive therapy to traditional antibiotic strategies to treat MRSA and multidrug-resistant (MDR) infections. The results of the study demonstrate the antibacterial activity of PAAG against clinical isolates of methicillin and mupirocin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and its ability to dramatically reduce the amount of antibiotic required to kill the bacteria.
"The study published today explores how PAAG can enhance the efficacy of current antibiotics used to treat MRSA, a common pathogen in patients with cystic fibrosis, who face frequent complications from MDR bacteria," said Shenda Baker, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer, Synspira. "PAAG is the active component in Synspira's inhaled pulmonary candidate, SNSP113, which is currently in a Phase 1 clinical trial for the treatment of CF."
The study showed antibacterial efficacy of PAAG against clinical isolates of MRSA and mupirocin resistant S. aureus. These results demonstrate that PAAG rapidly permeabilizes the bacteria to both directly kill MRSA and is synergistic with antibiotics, reducing the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) below levels where bacteria are considered resistant and resensitizing bacteria to the antibiotic. In addition, in a prior study published in PLOS ONE, PAAG improved the effectiveness of antibiotics against Burkholderia cepaciacomplex.
"This new class of glycopolymers may provide a new tool in the battle against multidrug-resistant bacteria," stated John Uhrig, Postdoctoral Fellow at the Division of Infectious Disease at the Medical College of Wisconsin. "PAAG's ability to permeabilize bacteria reduces their ability to respond to a variety of antibiotic challenges, and thus has tremendous potential for treating MDR infections."
About SNSP113
The company's lead product, SNSP113, is a first-in-class inhaled glycochemistry-based therapeutic with a broad spectrum mechanism of action intended to target the underlying cascade of events that lead to progressive pulmonary disease or other life-threatening pulmonary conditions, such as nontuberculous Mycobacteria(NTM), Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC), Pseudomonas aeruginosaor methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA). SNSP113 is designed to normalize mucin viscosity and improve mucus transport to increase airway clearance. SNSP113 disrupts the cohesion of bacterial biofilms and interacts with the cell walls of invading bacteria to increase their permeability, reduce their viability and potentiate the efficacy of antibiotics. These actions of SNSP113 lead to a reduction in the inflammatory cascade of neutrophils that can lead to pulmonary damage and fibrosis. Progressive pulmonary disease leads to overwhelming symptoms, impacts quality of life (QoL) and results in debilitating progressive lung decline. Synspira is expected to initiate SNSP113 Phase 2 trials in 2019.
About Synspira
Synspira Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to significantly improving the lives of people with cystic fibrosis and other rare diseases, such as primary ciliary dyskinesia and bronchiectasis, where there is a high unmet treatment need. Synspira is a privately held company headquartered in Framingham, MA. The company's lead product, SNSP113, is a first-in-class inhaled glycochemistry-based therapeutic with a broad spectrum mechanism of action designed to target the underlying cascade of events that lead to progressive pulmonary disease or other life-threatening pulmonary conditions. At Synspira we are inspired by the patients we serve and are driven to make a difference.
About Cystic Fibrosis
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a progressive genetic disease that causes persistent lung infections and chronic inflammation of pulmonary tissue leading to permanent lung damage and ultimately resulting in respiratory failure. CF is characterized by the accumulation of thick, sticky mucus in the lungs and clogged airways which impede breathing. Bacteria are not easily cleared and create protective biofilms that are difficult for antibiotics to penetrate and often lead to the emergence of multi-drug resistant bacteria. More than 30,000 people in the United States, and a similar number in Europe, live with cystic fibrosis.

I was interested to see that VirtualEdge announced the creation of a new Virtual Edge Institute education program, dedicated to "advancing the development and adoption of virtual event and meeting technology and best practices for collaboration and marketing." Michael Doyle at VirtualEdge has a lot of great experience in this area. A great certification program could be created, which would allow us to add an acronym on a business card–maybe CVMP (Certified Virtual Meeting Professional)? It would be nice to see, eventually, established standards and best practices for a wide range of virtual and hybrid events. It would be nice just to see everyone using the same vocabulary.


Grandmother's Garden. Photo by Dewaun Mays.
At the last sharing session with the youth and elders, one of the youth participants shared photos that he took of his community and his grandmother's garden. The youth who participated in the project were not able to access family photos in the short frame so I provided them with cameras to take pictures of their community. Additionally, one of the elders also shared photos and information about his family reunion.

"From Ephesus to Jerusalem" — Welcome Home to Zion!
All aboard for Sunday school!
Be certain you are on board!
And his disciples were having a panic attack.
Drawing attention to the necessity of faith.
A boat has been used as a helpful symbol for the Christian Church.
- to our Lord's Passion, death, and resurrection.
And eventually to his imprisonment and death in Rome.
Paul's pilgrim progress is made by boat.
- to the stops along the way in his journey.
And communities of new disciples might be encouraged and fed.
Paul was resolved in the Holy Spirit to move on.
Because Paul's "the Way" or "the Gospel" (as we know it) threatened their trade.
While the other half remained Jews.
Swelling the local members and friends of Christ.
In the prime of their career.
Yes, Lord! I will go where you send me!
If the Spirit wants me to move on, then I will move on.
Actually follow through and do the will of the Lord.
And so can you, too.
But first he detours to celebrate Passover in Philippi.
Because, we read, he was avoiding threats on his life.
Like Jesus, Paul would not be prematurely arrested or killed.
His short side trip to Philippi was only a temporary detour.
He only had 7 weeks to get to Jerusalem.
Philippi, at only 10,000 citizens was, a mere fraction of the size of Ephesus.
All citizens were immigrants from Rome.
There was no Jewish presence, neither were there Greeks; only Roman Gentiles.
Comes to a Gentile village and celebrates Passover?
Paul recognizes an opportunity when he sees one!
And integrates his practice of ancestral faith with belief in Jesus Christ.
All-the-while he is in transit to his final destination.
It is to this newly established community of Christ followers that Paul will soon write while on death row in Rome.
With an attitude of excitement and opportunity.
Change is a disruption in our routine and it often makes us grumpy!
To share the Good News of Christ crucified and risen from the dead.
Or rejected due to resistance and negativity.
For this great Christian voyage.
A sprawling city of about 100,000 people.
Paul has reemerged into a multicultural metropolis.
His time is short, only seven days.
The Apostle Paul joins them for an intense period of teaching, prayer, and fellowship dinners!
Paul teaches late into the night.
One sleepy student accidently falls out of a window and is killed.
Now that is one dedicated teacher!
Is that proclaiming Christ and working miracles go hand in hand.
Then we shouldn't be surprised when the miraculous takes place.
To go hand-in-hand with His proclaimed Word.
We should expect accidents that never happen, if that is according to God's will.
And we are WOWed by surprise when awareness of the miraculous is sudden.
All because Paul put a boy to sleep and he fell out of a window!
The Apostle makes landfall at one of the greatest cities of the former Greek Empire: Miletus.
He was probably at the mercy of the captain whose destination was Miletus.
They were longtime friends and fellow Christians.
And their success spoke for itself.
They are only a short distance away, so they quickly assemble.
Preparing his disciples for his eventual absence.
Some have called it a farewell charge, a speech of succession, a commission, even a last will and testament.
What Paul does is to teach his colleagues to continue his work in his absence.
He is headed to Jerusalem and his arrest.
Who do not measure the cost or weigh the suffering.
And to guard the Church against every threat.
"Savage wolves" will come from within and from the outside attempting to destroy the Church.
Lastly, help out the weak, Paul commands.
Of preparing, training, and commissioning our Church leaders of tomorrow.
And when the rest of us will be no more.
Paul was very intentional about making certain the Message would outlive him.
How about you, and me?
To teach and prepare tomorrow's Church?
Support them in their college and emerging adulthood.
When it comes to preparing the soil for tomorrow's Church to grow.
When our time is done.
Paul arrives at Caesarea to begin his final walk to Jerusalem.
Landing at the principal Roman port city of Caesarea.
Here, he stays a short time with Philip, preparing himself for his final walk to Zion.
In the form of Agabus from Judea.
He asks for Paul's belt.
He takes it, and uses it to begin to tie himself up as if he were a prisoner bound by the law.
Sounds very Old Testament, doesn't it?
Proclaiming doom on the nation.
Telling him, and showing him, how he will be arrested.
I am ready to be bound.
That the Lord's work might be done.
Paul will suffer, like Jesus, for what he says about Jesus.
Is an example for all of us to obtain.
When the difference between Christ and yourself cannot be seen.
Is to remain faithful to God's call for your life.
Do not be afraid of what lies in the future.
Rest confident that God adorns the feet of the Saints who carry out His will.
Is a resolute steadfastness to obey the will of the Lord.
This ship of Zion is setting sail.
We're making our way through the ports of life.
May we listen for the will of the Holy Spirit in Ephesus.
May we embrace opportunities to advance Christ and his name in Philippi.
May we proclaim Christ and expect his miracles in Troas.
May we prepare the future leaders of Christ's Church in Miletus.
And may we each remain steadfast and faithful to this call.
Make certain you're on the boat!
When he had finished speaking, he knelt down with them all and prayed. There was much weeping among them all; they embraced Paul and kissed him, grieving especially because of what he had said, that they would not see him again. Then they brought him to the ship.
When we had parted from them and set sail, we came by a straight course to Cos, and the next day to Rhodes, and from there to Patara. When we found a ship bound for Phoenicia, we went on board and set sail. We came in sight of Cyprus; and leaving it on our left, we sailed to Syria and landed at Tyre, because the ship was to unload its cargo there. We looked up the disciples and stayed there for seven days. Through the Spirit they told Paul not to go on to Jerusalem. When our days there were ended, we left and proceeded on our journey; and all of them, with wives and children, escorted us outside the city. There we knelt down on the beach and prayed and said farewell to one another. Then we went on board the ship, and they returned home. When we had finished the voyage from Tyre, we arrived at Ptolemais; and we greeted the believers and stayed with them for one day.
After these days we got ready and started to go up to Jerusalem. Some of the disciples from Caesarea also came along and brought us to the house of Mnason of Cyprus, an early disciple, with whom we were to stay. When we arrived in Jerusalem, the brothers welcomed us warmly. The next day Paul went with us to visit James; and all the elders were present. After greeting them, he related one by one the things that God had done among the Gentiles through his ministry. When they heard it, they praised God.

Data from spatial monitoring of water quality provided parameter sets for validation of catchment scale models. These have been used in a number of externally funded research projects including REFRESH.
REFRESH is a research project in which James Hutton Institute scientists are working together with 25 European research partners as part of an FP7 European Union-funded initiative looking at adaptive strategies to mitigate the impact of climate change on European freshwater ecosystem.
model calibration: 1.5 years of daily data.
The flow pathways followed by water as it moves through the soil and across its surface are important in determining the hydrological and water quality characteristics of receiving surface and groundwater bodies. Understanding of the processes governing the movement of water is poor, because of the heterogeneity in physical properties of the land and difficulties in observing sub-surface behaviour. Tracers that are either added to the system or occur naturally within it, provide a means of monitoring the integrated response of a receiving water body and can improve understanding of both the sources and timescales of hydrological transport. Future studies will include investigation of the utility of measuring isotopes of nitrate in water (δ15N and δ18O) as a means of improving understanding of the sources of diffuse pollution.

Direct Heating Type / Indirect Heating type Rotary Dryer | Product Information | KURIMOTO, LTD.
This is a direct heating type of dryer that brings materials into direct contact with hot air to dry them by lifting them up inside the rotary shell.
This is an indirect heating type of rotary dryer that brings materials into indirect contact with heating medium to provide heat exchanging.
The indirect heating type of rotary dryer is classified into external heating rotary dryer and steam tube dryer, which are applied for the following conditions.
If you use materials that are easily affected by contact with combustion gas.
If you need to minimize the amount of exhaust gas from the dryer.
If you use materials that are apt to produce dust.
If you use materials that are easily affected by oxidation.
If you need to recover volatile component.
The main unit of the rotary dryer is an inclined shell supported by four rollers. Materials, which are fed through one end of the shell, move inside the shell along the inclination of the shell and through the rotary movement and are discharged from the other end. Materials, while moving inside the shell, are lifted up by a lifter incorporated in the shell. Then, the materials fall evenly in the shell space and exchange heat with the hot air flowing through the space to dry. Depending on the method of providing hot air for the materials, this dryer is classified into two types, that is, concurrent flow drying type by which the hot air and materials flow in the same direction and countercurrent flow drying type by which they flow in the opposite direction.
The lifter is the most critical part having an influence on the performance of the dryer, which provides uniform dispersion of materials in the shell space. Any of the constructions shown below is used according to the physical properties of materials. Furthermore, spiral lifters designed with consideration of forced feeding of materials are used for the material feeding end.
By providing dams according to the applications, the materials residence time can be adjusted.
In order to handle materials of high adhesive property, chains are provided in the shell or a hammering unit is provided externally on the shell, thus preventing material adhesion and accumulation.
With the concurrent flow drying type, the materials move and the hot air flows in the same direction. Therefore, the hot air of the highest applicable temperature comes in contact with materials of the lowest applicable temperature at the end of the material inlet of the rotary shell. Normally, the concurrent flow drying type is used for the following conditions.
With the countercurrent flow drying type, the relation of flow direction and temperature between the hot air and the materials becomes reverse equivalent of the concurrent flow drying type. Therefore, this type is used especially in the case that low-moisture products are required, taking advantage of its characteristic that the hot air of the highest applicable temperature comes in contact with materials of the lowest moisture at the end of the material outlet.

Girls Basketball: Chester can't catch up
Harry Chaykun
LOWER MERION -- Lower Merion missed all eight shots it took in the fourth period of Saturday afternoon's PIAA District One Class AAAA girls basketball tournament game against Chester.The eighth-seeded Aces were 3-for-17 from the floor after the halftime break.What allowed them to get past the No. 25 Clippers, 48-35, to advance to the second round was 12-for-19 accuracy, including seven shots from behind the 3-point arc, in the opening two periods."Getting by the first round is always nice," said Lower Merion head coach Lauren Pellicane, who was an excellent 3-point shooter in her days in a Villanova University uniform. "We expected them to pressure us from the start. When they went into a 2-3 (zone defense), we took the (3-point shots) that we got and made enough of them."By halftime, the Aces (20-5) had tossed in seven 3-pointers and owned a 14-point lead. When the final period began, Lower Merion was ahead, 40-19.In the last eight minutes, the Clippers scrambled into high gear on offense and forced the Aces into 0-for-8 shooting from the floor. Four times Chester fouled junior Molly Hanlon (23 points, five steals, four rebounds, three blocked shots, two assists) and each time Hanlon went 2-for-2.Sophomore Karen Flagg (12 points, five steals, three rebounds, one assist) dropped in six points in the fourth period for Chester (13-12), but when the Lower Merion lead was cut to nine, Hanlon built it back up with her accuracy from the foul line.Junior guard Lil Carney, who made four 3-point shots in the opening half, added 19 points, three rebounds and three steals for Lower Merion, which will host No. 9 seed Upper Dublin in the second round Wednesday."We've been a good shooting team," Carney said. "They went to a zone and that gave Molly and I some open shots."Marvin Dukes, who completed his first season as Chester's head coach, was pleased with the efforts of his young team (only three seniors)."We set the bar high for them and things went as we expected," said Dukes, a former Chester High player. "The seniors have had some experiences they'll never forget and the younger players did some things we hope will get them going in the future."I thought today we were able to identify their shooters, but we didn't keep track of them as well as we should have at times. They were getting good looks and they were making shots. They're well-coached and a very disciplined team."Senior guard Shari Harper scored seven points, grabbed seven rebounds and made one steal in her last game in a Chester uniform and LaTanya Campbell, the other Clippers senior starter, had one point and four rebounds. Junior Shakira Showell scored five points and pulled down 11 missed shots for Chester.Harper is looking at several local colleges to continue playing basketball and begin studies that will lead to a career as a pediatrician. "We'll have some strong players coming back next year," said Harper, who was the only returning starter from the 2006-07 Chester team that won the Del Val League championship and advanced to the second round of the district tournament."I hope they'll keep playing hard and won't doubt themselves."Dukes believes that will happen.""We'll have things to learn," he said. "You always have certain adjustments to make. But it's something I'll be looking forward to doing and I'm sure we'll have another good team next year."

Six new African language services to broadcast on BBC
By Ismail Akwei
British public broadcaster, the BBC, has announced on Wednesday that it will launch 11 new language services in 2017 as part of its expansion project.
Among the 11 languages are six African languages including Afaan Oromo, Amharic, Tigrinya, Igbo, Yoruba and Nigerian Pidgin.
Afaan Oromo and Amharic are widely spoken in Ethiopia with the former also spoken in some parts of Kenya, Somalia and Egypt.
Tigrinya is mainly spoken in Eritrea and also in some parts of Ethiopia while Igbo, Yoruba and the Nigerian Pidgin are spoken mainly in Nigeria and in other parts of West Africa.
The other five language services are Asian including Gujarati, Marathi, Punjabi, Telugu which are spoken widely in India and then Korean which is spoken in the North and South Korea.
The expansion, described as the biggest since the 1940s, was made possible by last year's budget boost by the United Kingdom government.
BBC quoted its director general Tony Hall who said the 94-year-old global broadcaster looks forward to being the "outward-looking BBC which brings the best of our independent, impartial journalism and world-class entertainment to half a billion people around the world".
The BBC is the oldest national broadcasting service and the largest in terms of employees, broadcasting worldwide in over 30 languages on television, radio and online.
In 2011, BBC suffered a budget cut that affected three language services including the Portuguese for Africa service widely listened to in Angola and Mozambique.
Its African language service is currently broadcasting in Hausa, Kirundi, Somali and Swahili. The new addition will raise the number to 10.
Tony Hall expects the public broadcaster to reach 500 million people worldwide by its centenary in 2022, the BBC reports.

JAGUARS-COLTS PREVIEW
The Colts will go head-to-head with an AFC South rival on Sunday when they host the Jacksonville Jaguars in their season opener inside Lucas Oil Stadium.
A Capsule Look at the Colts' Regular Season-Opener
**Indianapolis Colts (0-0) vs. Jacksonville Jaguars (0-0)
Sunday, September 13, 2009 (1:00 p.m. EDT)
Lucas Oil Stadium (63,000 capacity) – Indianapolis, Ind.
Television/Radio: CBS and 1070-The Fan/HANK-FM 97.1
Jim Caldwell is hoping history repeats itself.
Eight years ago, in Caldwell's first game as the team's quarterback coach, the Colts recorded a season-opening victory against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Now, eight years later, Caldwell finds himself in a similar position. On Sunday, Caldwell will lead the Colts as the team's head coach for the first time. And like last time, his first game will come against the Jaguars.
After weeks of preparation in training camp and the preseason, the Colts are excited to return to regular-season play, where they hold an NFL-best 114-46 record since 1999. But their first game will not be an easy one, as it comes against a physical ballclub and a formidable AFC South rival.
"It's a very important game," Caldwell said. "Having an opportunity to open up at home in front of our fans is a real good opportunity for us. We will play a real good football team that is in our division, and it is going to be quite a challenge."
The Colts own a 12-4 edge in the all-time series, with each team recording a road victory in 2008.
HORSE HIGHLIGHTS
With a re-tooled offense and an improved defense, the Colts are hoping a balanced attack can lead them to victory in their season opener.
After struggling with the run in 2008, Caldwell and the coaching staff are confident the Colts can turn their rushing attack around in 2009. And with any good ground games comes a sturdy offensive line, something Caldwell thinks the Colts possess.
"We have a great core of guys, it's just a tremendous group," the Colts coach said. "They've been around and understand our system very well. They've been very productive guys through the years. (Ryan) Lilja is back, (Jeff) Saturday is there with (Ryan) Diem, and the rest of the crew and they have all done extremely well."
Behind the offensive line for the Colts is the tandem of Pro Bowl running back Joseph Addai and first-round draft pick Donald Brown. Both backs ran the ball well during preseason, but Caldwell knows his team's rushing attack will be "put to the test" against the Jaguars, a team with a well-earned reputation for stopping the run.
"We feel really good about what we've been able to accomplish and our preparation has been good," Caldwell said. "But the proof is in the pudding and we have to get out there and perform. (Jacksonville) has a strong front and a very capable linebacking corps, and they defend the run very well."
Addai said he thinks the Colts' offensive line will benefit from a healthy, cohesive preseason.
"We want everybody that is a starter, that is healthy, out there, even the backups," Addai said. "We're going to need everybody to step up. I think right now the flow is kind of going in our favor, as far as the injuries and everybody being on the same page."
A CLOSER LOOK AT THE JAGUARS
Unlike the preseason, when a team's main focus is improving itself, the Colts have had plenty of time to watch tape and prepare for the Jaguars.
"I've looked at quite a bit of film on them," Caldwell said. "They are just like they always are. They are a good, tough, hard-nosed football team."
"They have good balance all the way across the board," Caldwell said. "They have an effective offense, a good defense and a solid kicking game. I don't think any of that has changed."
Leading the Jaguars is veteran running back Maurice Jones-Drew, who becomes the lone featured back with Fred Taylor's offseason departure to New England. Jones-Drew combined for 1,389 rushing and receiving yards in 2008, 328 of which came against the Colts.
"There aren't too may teams that will run the ball better than Jacksonville," Caldwell said.
In addition to Jones-Drew and quarterback David Garrard, the Jaguars added seven-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Torry Holt to the team this offseason.
"He's going to be a Hall of Fame guy when he retires," Jaguars Head Coach Jack Del Rio said. "He brings veteran savvy, veteran leadership. He still has some burning desire to do some things in this league, and we're really happy to have him aboard."
The following players did not participate in Friday's practice: DB-Marlin Jackson (rested), DT-Fili Moala (knee), DB-Bob Sanders (knee), TE-Tom Santi (ankle) and DB-Jamie Silva (abdomen). Moala is questionable for Sunday's game and Sanders, Santi and Silva have been declared out.
• "Another playoff. Another 12-win season. You shouldn't expect anything different. Coach Caldwell comes in with the same itinerary. Now, we just have to follow it and just follow through with it. I feel like we have the right guys in place. To me, I feel like we're as healthy as we've ever been coming out of preseason. I feel like the sky is the limit for us." – Colts wide receiver Reggie Wayne on his expectations for the 2009 season
• "Just tell them to go out and play their game. The speed is going to pick up a little bit, but at the end of the day this is the game you've been playing for a long time so just let it come to you, and everything will be fine." – Colts safety Antoine Bethea on what he tells the team's rookies to expect in their first game
• "His past record speaks for itself. He's one of the premier receivers in the league. He's a guy that understands space awareness and finds a way to get open … We will have to do our job in terms of pass coverage. It is pass rush and the ability to cover your area of responsibility. Those two things will have to work in conjunction for us to make sure we handle their passing game." – Colts Head Coach Jim Caldwell on Jaguars wide receiver Torry Holt
STORYLINES TO WATCH FOR…
1) SOME NEW FACES IN DIFFERENT PLACES
Caldwell is not 100 percent on who will be lining up where on Sunday in regards to the Colts' secondary. He knows veteran defensive back Marlin Jackson will be available and he knows rookie Jerraud Powers is going to play significantly and might even start at corner alongside Kelvin Hayden.
"If he does start, he won't be the first (rookie) to start in this league," Caldwell said.
In fact, as Caldwell pointed out, Jacksonville starts two rookies at offensive tackle.
"It's not something uncommon. We think if he (Powers) is called upon to start, that he'll do very well. The skill level is there. He's a mature individual for his age in regards to football. He's all business. He has the making of someone that if things feel right, he'd come in and have an impact."
2) TACKLE ROTATION
With defensive tackle Ed Johnson out for the season-opener, the Colts are expected to use at least a three-man rotation in the middle of their defensive line.
Earlier this week, Caldwell said he planned to utilize Antonio Johnson, Dan Muir and Eric Foster at tackle.
"That's kind of what it looks like," the coach said. "We're going to have a rotation in there that will move some guys around a little bit. That will kind of be our plan of attack."
Caldwell also said he would not be surprised if veteran defensive end Raheem Brock slid over and played some downs at tackle.
"We have a couple little things that we do from time-to-time. Obviously, he has played in there in the past. It just depends on game situations, on what it requires and what kind of schemes we go into it with," he said.
3) NO LONGER A DECOY
Reggie Wayne smiled when asked how he liked being a decoy the past few weeks.
"I'm always the decoy in the preseason," he said.
But the regular season is different. Entering Sunday's game, Wayne and quarterback Peyton Manning stand as the most prolific active QB-WR duo in the league, meaning the Pro Bowl wideout is unlikely to receive "decoy" status against Jacksonville.
He is likely, however, to go against a fellow Pro Bowl selection: Jaguars defensive back Rashean Mathis. Whether Mathis will cover Wayne the entire game remains to be seen.
"It depends on how they view things in terms of their defensive scheme," Caldwell said. "I wouldn't be surprised if that indeed did happen."
Wayne said Mathis has not exclusively shadowed him in the past, but then again the team, "did have No. 88 (Marvin Harrison) on the other side," as Wayne pointed out.
One thing Caldwell thinks is working in the Colts' favor is the offense's versatility.
"You can't count on (Wayne) lining up in the same spot every single time," he said. "It takes very flexible individuals to perform within (our offense) because…we move them around quite a bit."
Rather than try and guess how Mathis and the Jaguars will cover him Sunday, Wayne elected to take a wait-and-see approach.
"What they do now is to be determined," he said. "We're about to find out. If he flips, then I'll flip. We'll just keep flipping. It's going to be a chess match."

« Engineered Microbes Created to Clean Biodiesel Waste
Patent Awarded for Spinal Disc Regeneration Technology »
Students Invent Germ-Killing Catheter, Start Company
By Alan, on May 21st, 2014
Light-Line catheter (Veritas Medical LLC)
21 May 2014. Five medical and engineering students at University of Utah in Salt Lake City invented a new type of catheter that emits high-intensity light killing bacteria before they cause an infection in the patient. The students also formed a new company, Veritas Medical LLC in Salt Lake City to take the invention to market, which received the first-place award at the International Business Model Competition earlier this month at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah.
According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than 93,000 urinary tract and some 72,000 bloodstream infections were reported in U.S. hospitals during 2011, the latest year for which data are available. About three-quarters of urinary tract infections developed in hospitals are associated with urinary catheters, which are used by 15 to 25 percent of hospitalized patients during their stays.
Current and former Utah bioengineering and medical students Nate Rhodes, James Allen, Mitch Barneck, Martin de La Presa, and Ahrash Poursaid developed the catheter that addresses this problem. The catheter combines high-intensity, narrow-spectrum light waves into the design of the device. In hospital studies, these light waves killed up to 90 percent of bacteria, including antibiotic-resistant bacteria, on surfaces in rooms occupied by burn patients.
The catheter is designed to emit high-intensity, narrow-spectrum waves throughout the length of the device, which targets sites where bacteria may accumulate and colonize. While high-intensity, narrow-spectrum light acts like ultraviolet waves in killing bacteria, it is harmless to humans. The inventors say their tests show the ability of high-intensity, narrow-spectrum light to kill 96 percent of E. coli bacteria
The students began work on the catheter three years ago, and formed Veritas Medical in 2012 to commercialize their invention, which they brand-named Light-Line. They filed for a patent on the technology in March 2013. All of the inventors serve as operating managers of the company, even while some pursue their studies, including advanced or medical degrees.
The device is now being lab tested, but the company aims to begin clinical trials in 2015, with market availability planned for 2016.

Will I regret trading my Square lamb Mini for a caviar WOC?
I am thinking of selling my square black lamb mini which is a vintage beauty for a new caviar woc. I love my square black mini but because its lambskin it doesn't get much use because I want to protect it mostly but its a very special bag because it has a classic look, my other square mini is caviar but a lighter color. I was thinking I can replace it for a black caviar WOC because I can use it more everyday and so the bag would get way more use for its cost. I am just not sure if I will regret it? I know the WOC has issues with rubbing and even bending upwards on corners which I'm not a fan of, but I love the look of it and I feel it would be so handy to use. What would you do?
If you're thinking you'll regret it, you probably will. I vote to keep the mini and wear it more often.
papertiger, OCMomof3 and killerlife like this.
You'll regret it. Keep it and use it on special occasions and if you have the funds, buy the caviar mini for everyday use.
mcfgatz, papertiger and OCMomof3 like this.
Sell it. The vintage darker gold looks dated to me. Plus, you never wear it so it's a waste just sitting in your closet. I vote to sell.
Bags should be worn and not babied or kept in the closet.
What about selling the square mini and getting a rectangular mini instead of the WOC as you expressed some concerns regarding the wear and tear of the WOC.
Vintage lamb versus new caviar?
That is a no brainer in my book, so I think the chances of regret are high.
Also, in my view the old lamb is sturdier, in the long run, than new caviar. It refurbishes very well.

18-й Северокаролинский пехотный полк (18th North Carolina Infantry) представлял собой один из пехотных полков армии Конфедерации во время Гражданской войны в США. Он сражался в основном в составе Северовирджинской армии. Известен тем, что его солдаты по ошибке застрелили генерала Томаса Джексона в ходе сражения при Чанселорсвилле.

Формирование
Полк был первоначально набран на срок службы в 12 месяцев и был назван 8-м пехотным добровольческим полком (8th North Carolina Volunteers). Его роты были набраны в Уилмингтоне и округах Робсон, Нью-Хановер, Бладен, Коламбус и Ричмонд. Его первым командиром стал полковник Джеймс Диллард Рэдклифф.

Полк был вооружён в основном гладкоствольными мушкетами «Спрингфилд 1842», кроме двух рот, которые получили мушкеты образца 1822 года.

Полк был принят на службу 20 августа 1861 года в лагере Кэмп-Уиатт около Уильмингтона и приписан к Северокаролинскому департаменту. 14 ноября 1861 года он был переименован в «18-й северокаролинский» (18th North Carolina Troops) и передан Департаменту Южной Каролины, Джорджии и Флориды, и размещён в лагере Кэмп-Стивенс на полпути между Чарльстоном и Саванной.

Боевой путь
Когда федеральный генерал Бернсайд начал наступление на Нью-Берн, полк отправили к Нью-Берну, но прибыл на место слишком поздно. В марте 1862 года полк был включён в бригаду генерала Лоуренса Брэнча. В апреле полк был реорганизован, его солдаты записались на трёхлетний срок службы, а полковник Рэдклифф был смещён. Впоследствии он командовал 61-м северокаролинским полком. Командиром полка стал полковник Роберт Харпер Кован - в прошлом подполковник 3-го северокаролинского полка.

27 мая 1862 года в ходе кампании на полуострове бригада Брэнча участвовала в сражении при Хановер-Кортхаус. 18-й северокаролинский участвовал во фланговой атаке корпуса Портера, которая в итоге окончилась неудачей. После этого сражения бригада Брэнча была включена в «Лёгкую дивизию Хилла».

В конце июня началась Семидневная битва, и полк был задействован в сражении при Механиксвилле, в сражении при Гэйнс-Милл и сражении при Глендейле. Во время сражения при Малверн-Хилл полк сначала держали в резерв, затем он получил приказ наступать, попал под обстрел противника, и в итоге так и не был введён в дело. Из 400 человек, числившихся в полку к началу кампании, было потеряно 14 человек убитыми и 82 ранеными.

Во время северовирджинской кампании полк участвовал в сражении у Кедровой горы, где потерял 14 человек, затем во втором сражении при Бул-Ране, где потерял 12 человек, и затем в сражении при Шантильи. Во время кампании выбыл из строя по болезни полковник Кован и его место занял подполковник Томас Парди.

12-15 сентября 1862 года полк участвовал в сражении при Харперс-Ферри, а 17 марта совершил марш к Шарпсбергу, где дивизия Хилла успела спасти правый фланг армии генерала Ли. В этом сражении погиб генерал Брэнч, и командование принял полковник Джеймс Лэйн. 18-й вирджинский не был введён в бой. Когда Северовирджинская армия отступала в Вирджинию, дивизия Хилла прикрывала отступление и 18-й северокаролинский участвовал в сражении при Шефердстауне.

1 ноября 1862 года полковник Лэйн стал бригадным генералом и командиром бригады, полковник Кован ушёл в отставку по состоянию здоровья, а 13 декабря полк участвовал в сражении при Фредериксберге, где попал под удар дивизии Джона Гиббона и одновременно дивизия Мида обошла его с фланга, прорвавшись в разрыв между позициями Лэйна и Грегга. В этом бою полк понёс серьёзные потери, полковник Парди был ранен, а полк потерял 13 человек убитыми и 77 ранеными.

Весной 1863 года во время сражения при Чанселорсвилле, генерал Джексон предпринял фланговую атаку федеральных позиций силами трёх дивизий. Когда исчерпали свои возможности дивизии Колстона и Родса, Томас послал в бой дивизию Хилла. В ходе боя был убит полковник Парди, а затем ранен подполковник Джордж Форни. Командование перешло к майору Джону Бэрри.

Бригада Лэйна встала поперек дороги Оранж-Плэнкроуд, при этом 18-й северокаролинский стоял на левой стороне дороги, а его правый фланг стоял как раз на дороге. Вечером генерал Джексон выехал вперед за линии полка для разведки и попал под обстрел. Он повернул обратно и вышел как раз к позициям 18-го северокаролинскго. Северокаролинцы приняли его отряд за федеральную кавалерию и майор Бэрри приказал открыть огонь. Джексон получит три ранения.

Генерал Лэйн впоследствии вспоминал:
...майор, впоследствии полковник Джон Бэрри, командир 18-го северокаролинского пехотного, правый фланг которого стоял на дороге,сообщил мне, что он ничего не знал об уходе Джексона и Хилла за линию фронта, что он не мог в темноте отличить друзей от врагов, а также ввиду густого подлеска. Вскоре после того, как началась перестрелка, он услышал топот лошадей и крики кавалеристов и, зная, что он стоит на передовой и впереди только враги, он не только приказал открыть огонь, но и велел продолжать, полагая, что это враги, а крики «своих» всего лишь уловка.

На следующий день, 3 мая, полк атаковал укреплённые позиции федеральной армии и попал под фланговый обстрел. Всего в ходе того сражения было потеряно 34 человека убитыми (в том числе полковник Парди), 99 ранеными и 21 пропавший без вести. Было утрачено знамя полка.

Интересные факты
Много лет спустя после войны стало известно, что в 18-м северокаролинском служил рядовой Билл Томпсон, который на самом деле являлся женщиной по имени Люси Матильда Томпсон Гаусс. Она служила в полку вместе с мужем с лета 1862 года до декабря, когда её муж погиб в сражении при Фредериксберге. По некоторым данным, она была снайпером. После войны она жила во Флориде и скрывала свою историю до 1914 года.

The saga of Maryjane dispensaries was performed on the legislative stage throughout the 2014 session. The tale would actually be comedy if the subjects were not so serious and if some of the characters were not such bad actors.
The 2013 legislature amended ORS 475 to authorize the Oregon Health Authority to register medical marijuana dispensaries throughout Oregon. The law also prohibited county and city governments from regulating medical marijuana.
I voted against that law for a number of reasons.
In my opinion, registered medical marijuana dispensaries represent the final step in the progression before authorizing the legal retailing of marijuana products. The current law allowed virtually unregulated infusion of marijuana and its extracts into a variety of food products such as candy, cookies, cake, brownies and other sweet bakery items.
Marijuana, in any form, continues to be classified as an illegal drug under federal law. I believe the Legislature has no legal right to force cities and counties to issue business licenses to entities that manufacture and sell illegal drugs in their jurisdictions.
Political leaders in a great number of Oregon cities and counties were also aghast at this new law. They knew that there were more than 250 applications to establish medical marijuana dispensaries in just the first two months of eligibility. It was clearly understood that the approximately 60 thousand Oregon medical marijuana card holder could not support even that many retail locations. The local leaders considered the registration of medical marijuana dispensaries little less than outright authorization for the retail sale of marijuana and marijuana infused food products in their communities.
For that reason, many city and county political leaders asked for a bill that would provide Oregon cities and counties authority for local regulation of these marijuana shops. In response to that request, Senator Bill Hansell pre-session filed SB 1531.
The bill authorized cities and counties to adopt ordinances to regulate or prohibit registration of medical marijuana dispensaries in their jurisdictions. It prohibited medical marijuana dispensaries from being located at marijuana grow sites. The bill also allowed for local jurisdictions to regulate the storage and dispensing of marijuana products in a registered dispensary.
SB 1531 was assigned to the Senate Judiciary Committee where it was functionally eviscerated.
As amended by Committee-chair Floyd Prozanski, the bill still allowed a county to impose restrictions on marijuana facilities. However, it provided that any restrictions must impose "reasonable" limitations on the hours that a medical marijuana facility may operate, "reasonable" limitations on the hours of operation, "reasonable" zoning restrictions, and "reasonable" conditions on the dispensing of medical marijuana. The word "reasonable" was not defined in the bill and, to my knowledge, is not defined in Oregon statutes.
Further, the committee chair refused to adopt amendments to regulate the infusion of marijuana or marijuana extracts into food products that are inherently attractive to small children. Not only is marijuana known to be especially addictive to children and teenagers but in unregulated concentrations it can be poisonous.
SB 1531 passed through the Senate unanimously for two reasons. The bill was a little better than no local control. More important, the adults on the House Judiciary Committee had promised they would amend the bill to restore its original intent.
Under the leadership of Chair Jeff Barker, the House committee did further amend SB 1531 to allow the cities and counties to adopt ordinances that either prohibit or regulate medical marijuana facilities. The Committee added the prohibition of the sale of marijuana infused products unless the product's packaging is not attractive to minors and complies with child safety packaging as established by agency rule. The amendment further prohibited locating a medical marijuana dispensary at a marijuana grow site.
The Committee knew that the amended bill had strong bipartisan support and would easily pass if allowed a vote on the House floor. They unanimously voted the amended bill to the House floor with a "do pass" recommendation.
Unfortunately, House Speaker Tina Kotek and her Democrat leadership did not support the amended version of SB 1531, even though they should have known it would easily pass if allowed a vote. They employed procedural manipulations for three floor sessions in order to prevent that vote by the full House of Representatives. They delayed until they were able to gain the majority of Representatives present that was required to refer SB 1531 back to the House Rules Committee.
Once the House Rules Committee had possession of SB 1531, Kotek and her colleagues further amended the bill. The ability of local governments to prohibit or regulate medical marijuana dispensaries was limited to allowing a city or county to adopt ordinances enacting a moratorium on operations of registered marijuana facilities. The moratorium must be enacted no later than May 1, 2014 and can only be in affect until May 1, 2015.
SB 1531 subsequently passed out of the House with 51 yes votes. It was then returned to the Senate for a vote to concur with the House amendments. Apparently, the Senate Democrat Caucus must have pressured Senate Judiciary Chair Floyd Prosanski to agree to the House amendments that recreated much of what he had stripped out of the original bill. The Eugene Senator did recommend adopting the House amendments and the Senate concurred on a 28-2 vote.
Governor Kitzhaber signed the bill into Oregon law on March 19, 2014. The emergency clause made it take effect on that date.
In my opinion, reducing the ability of local jurisdictions to prohibit medical marijuana dispensaries to the year-long moratorium was a political punt. Certain influential Democrats opposed an outright prohibition. They also did not want to vote against the prohibition in an election year. The wording of the new law makes it virtually certain that the issue will be revisited by the next Legislature starting three months after the fall election.
The next act of Oregon's medical marijuana political drama will be played in the spring of 2015.


The format of a meeting is shaped by the attendees, meeting goals, and type of work that needs to be done. A presentation to a Fortune 500 board of directors might have a detailed agenda and slide deck that's been rehearsed and polished down to the precise number of minutes available, whereas a weekly check-in with your team might have a loose agenda and be open to extending the time if needed.
For certain types of meetings, we've found treating the meeting a bit more like a small unconference is highly effective.
I have two great examples of this attendee-driven approach in practice.
We used this approach to keep our long-term detailed design process running smoothly on a large ERP rewrite project. The complexity of the application gave us a continuous stream of work: moving forward on new feature designs, feedback from design reviews, and feedback from user testing of delivered features.
Our team maintained a prioritized checklist of the things we needed to cover together. The Dev Lead, Design Lead, and I (the Delivery Lead) set a regular cadence to meet: one hour, twice per week. We'd review the top things on the list quickly to settle on priorities for our time, and then work through as many as we could in the time we had.
The format worked well for us because it required minimal preparation outside the list and the notes we already had. It also kept us moving forward on the important work we needed to do.
The second example is a quarterly meeting that we've recently started holding as an opportunity for the Delivery Leads in our two offices to learn from each other. We wanted to spend some time discussing project practices, tools, challenges, experiences, and professional development topics.
Brittany Hunter set up a Google document of topic ideas which we could edit and moderated our first best practices meeting. We first voted on topics, then set a 30-minute time limit for the topic at the top of our list. When we hit the time limit, we decided whether we wanted to add an extension (10-15 minutes) or move on to the next topic. We had a lot of great conversation and carried the topics we didn't cover to the next meeting.
We've appreciated the shared ownership of topics and the ease of facilitating. Attendees can advocate for topics that are important to them and take ownership of the topic once the meeting is underway, and facilitating only requires a little whiteboard space and a timer.
This approach involves everyone without placing too much burden on any one person, which makes it a great way to avoid both types of pre-meeting dread ("Crap, another meeting where I have to do everything," and "Crap, another meeting where nothing I care about gets done.").
It's also easy to tune meeting duration and frequency to keep up with the contents of our work list.
There's a high-level topic that needs continuous attention.
The work is important, but most of it isn't urgent.
It is part of a process with a regular cadence.
The meeting is more of a conversation or working session, and less of a presentation.
There are a relatively small number (< 10) of motivated and engaged attendees.
The meeting's purpose is to share specific information–more of a presentation.
There is an set agenda that needs to be followed–attendees have expectations.
There is a specific, focused decision that needs to be made, possibly urgently.
Set up a time to meet and make sure everyone understands the purpose.
Share a working document of an agenda for collaborative contributions (Google doc, Basecamp checklist, etc.).
List topics on the board at the start of the meeting and have the person who proposed each topic give a quick overview.
Dot vote, or use priorities from a collaboratively-built agenda.
Take the top item, set a reasonable time limit, and go.
When you hit the limit, ask whether the topic needs more time.
Be sure to make time for breaks.
Roll any topics that don't get covered to the next meeting, if you're planning one.

Q: ORA 00911 Error When SQL Statement With Where Clause Ends With Semi-Colon? I'm getting an oracle 00911 error (illegal character). I'm hoping someone can help me understand.
I'm using the following code to execute an sql statement on my oracle 11g database:
private DataTable ExecuteQuery(DbCommand query) {
    DataTable result = new DataTable();
    using (DbConnection con = CreateConnection()) {
    try {
       query.Connection = con;
       query.CommandTimeout = int.MaxValue; // don't impose a timeout
       using (DbDataAdapter dataAdapter = factory.CreateDataAdapter()) {
           dataAdapter.SelectCommand = query;
           dataAdapter.Fill(result);
       }
    }
    ...

If I give this function something with a DbCommand.CommandText property like "Select * from X;" it works fine, but given "Select * from x where y;" this will throw an oracle 00911 exception. If I remove the semicolon, however, it executes fine.
Does anyone know why it would throw an illegal character error for ending the statement with a semicolon only on certain types of statements?
Update for clarity:
The exact queries I used to test out the semi colon causing error were:
This query worked fine:
SELECT * FROM Machines;
This query generated an ORA 0911 error:
SELECT * FROM Machines WHERE ID = 47;
While this query worked fine:
SELECT * FROM Machines WHERE ID = 47   <-- only the semi colon changed
Also the provider being used is Oracle.DataAccess.Client

A: This behaviour depends on the DB provider used - some providers do additional queries upfront (like a SELECT COUNT(*)...) and/or add something to the query (like ROWID for example)... depending on how the provider implements this "internal behaviour" it might result in some strange things when a semicolon is present...  it might even behave differently depending on whether a WHERE is present or not...
In scenarios like yours (a pure SELECT / UPDATE / DELETE statement) I NEVER add a semicolon at the end and had never this problem...
Out of curiosity: why do you have a semicolon at the end ?

Video Premiere: ARTILLERY's 'Pain'
Danish thrash metal veterans ARTILLERY will release their ninth studio album, "The Face Of Fear", on November 16 via Metal Blade. The follow-up to 2016's "Penalty By Perception" is ARTILLERY's third effort with the current lineup.
The official music video for the song "Pain", taken from "The Face Of Fear", can be seen below. The clip was produced by Morten S. Madsen and features the talented Danish actor Tommy Vonsyld in the leading role.
Says the band: "The video for the song 'Pain' is about a man that live his life isolated and everything is centered around his abuse of drugs and alcohol. He is in pain and struggling with mental and psychological issues caused by his own abuse. He is near the end of his life, and haunted by his own demons and the reaper is lurking in the shadows."
The lyrics are ARTILLERY as you know them, with subjects concerning the destruction of mankind, double standards, abuse and the looming worst-case scenarios. "The Face Of Fear" was recorded with longtime producer Søren Andersen at Medley Studios. It's Søren's fifth time at the helm, and once again he manages to deliver a monster production.
Søren comments: "Pure and raw! Some of the material of this album was originally written in the early '80s, and that inspired us to go old school this time. Not too many layers, just classic ARTILLERY thrash metal... And Bastholm [singer Michael Bastholm Dahl] is better than ever on this one. This is a no-filler album, created together with the band. I'm really proud of the final result and I hope everyone will enjoy it as much as I do!"
"The Face Of Fear" track listing:
01. The Face Of Fear
02. Crossroads To Conspiracy
03. New Rage
04. Sworn Utopia
05. Through The Ages Of Atrocity
06. Thirst For The Worst
08. Under Water (instumental)
09. Preaching To The Converted
10. Mind Of No Return (limited first-edition bonus track / re-recorded song from ARTILLERY's first demo from 1982)
11. Doctor Evil (limited first-edition bonus track / 2018 version)
Since the release of "Penalty By Perception" — which won the band four Danish Metal Awards in 2016 (best album, best band, best production and honorary prize) — ARTILLERY has toured around the world, including Europe, South America and parts of Asia. For the rest of 2018, there will be time for Copenhell's Metal Cruise and a Denmark tour, plus a release party on High Voltage. 2019 will include tours in Europe, South America and USA.

Barrington Sylvester Bartley (born 19 October 1980) is an American cricketer of Jamaican origin. He made his debut for the American national team at the 2005 ICC Trophy, and has since played for the side in a number of international tournaments. Bartley is a left-arm orthodox spinner, although he bats with the opposite hand, and has been noted as "one of the best fielders in the country".

Before moving to New York City, Bartley represented Jamaica at the 1998 and 1999 West Indian under-19 championships, where his teammates included future West Indies players Chris Gayle, Jermaine Lawson, Ricardo Powell, and Marlon Samuels. Bartley and Lawson went to school together, and Lawson moved to New York after the conclusion of his West Indies career, like Bartley going on to represent the American national team. Bartley made his debut for the U.S. national team at the 2005 ICC Trophy in Ireland, with no previous experience in international matches. He featured in all six of the team's games, and, despite making a duck on debut against the United Arab Emirates, featured in both the U.S.'s top five runscorers and top five wicket takers. Against Bermuda, he topscored with 52 from 35 balls, hitting two sixes before being bowled by Saleem Mukuddem. That innings remained his highest score in list-A matches – his only other games in that format came for the U.S. in the 2008–09 season of the WICB Cup (the West Indian domestic one-day tournament), where he played three matches.

After the WICB Cup, Bartley did not again appear for the United States until the 2012–13 season, when he featured in the annual Auty Cup fixture against Canada. He remained very active in American domestic cricket, however, playing club cricket in New York and also captaining a new side, the Bedessee New York Destroyers, in a national Twenty20 tournament. In 2008, Bartley and several other Jamaican-born players in the United States were profiled in a Sports Illustrated piece on American cricket. At the 2013 Americas Twenty20 Division One tournament in Florida, Bartley made his first appearance in an ICC tournament since 2005, with his eight games yielding 36 runs (with only one dismissal, for an average of 36.00) and six wickets. He bowled more overs than any other American player, with his best figures, 2/9, coming against the Bahamas.

In a friendly match against Bermuda after the end of the tournament, Bartley hit 111 not out from 65 balls, an innings which included nine sixes. Despite this, Bermuda chased down the U.S.'s target of 284 with two balls to spare, with David Hemp (who hit 103 from 114 balls) named man of the match in preference to Bartley. The U.S. qualified for the 2013 World Twenty20 Qualifier in the UAE by virtue of their performance at the Americas regional tournament. Bartley featured in five matches at the tournament, which had full Twenty20 status, but had little success with his left-arm spin – his economy rate of 11.33 runs an over was the worst of any American who bowled more than six balls. Against Hong Kong, his three overs went for 48 runs, although he did claim the wickets of James Atkinson and Nizakat Khan (his only wickets of the tournament). Bartley is a member of the U.S. squad for the 2015 Americas Twenty20 Championship, to be played in Indiana in May 2015.

«Кошелёк или жизнь» () — фильм ужасов, снятый режиссёром Майклом Догерти. Первый публичный показ состоялся на кинофестивале Гарри Ноулза Butt-Numb-A-Thon в Остине, штат Техас, 9 декабря 2007-го года.

Сюжет
Фильм состоит из четырёх связанных между собой страшных историй, произошедших на Хэллоуин в американском городке Уоррен Вали в штате Огайо. Все эти истории объединяет одно существо — Сэм — таинственная фигура в оранжевой потёртой пижаме, носящая мешок на голове. Он появляется во всех историях, следя за тем, чтобы традиции Самайна/Хэллоуина неукоснительно соблюдались.

Начало
Эмма и её муж Генри поставили в честь Хэллоуина облачённые в простыни чучела в своём дворе. Вернувшись домой поздно ночью, Эмма решает задуть светильник Джека, но Генри говорит ей, что это противоречит традициям. Не слушая мужа, Эмма задувает фонарь. В то время как Генри сидит в доме, Эмма убирает чучела и прочие украшения с их двора. Неожиданно её убивает неизвестный с леденцом в форме серпа. Позже Генри, не дождавшись жены, выходит во двор и находит прибитый к одному из чучел истерзанный труп Эммы с гигантским леденцом во рту.

Необычная семья
Стивен Уилкинс, главный герой этой истории, отравляет Чарли (мальчика, пойманного на краже конфет с крыльца Уилкинса). Перед смертью Чарли рвёт большим количеством крови. Уилкинс затаскивает тело в дом, но при этом измазывается в крови. В это время к нему приходят за конфетами учащиеся в местной школе дети — Мэри, Чип и Сара. Подумав, что рубашка в крови — это просто костюм, дети спокойно берут конфеты и уходят. Последним конфету берёт таинственная фигура в оранжевой потёртой пижаме с мешком на голове — Сэм. Уилкинс хоронит Чарли в своём дворе, вместе с другим телом. К тому же у него происходит стычка с соседом — мистером Кригом, который живёт со своей собакой. После захоронения Уилкинс замечает в окне соседнего дома мистера Крига, кричащего и умоляющего о помощи. Уилкинс не обращает на это внимания. Позже Уилкинс помогает своему сыну Билли вырезать светильник Джека из отрубленной головы Чарли. История заканчивается фразой Билли: «Но не забудь помочь мне вырезать глазки».

Школьный автобус
Пятеро детей — Мэри, Шредер, Сара, Чип и Ронда решают посетить заброшенную каменоломню, на которой произошла ужасная трагедия. Мэри рассказывает, что тридцать лет назад обычный школьный автобус вёз «необычных» детей в неизвестном направлении. Дети, сидящие в автобусе, были умственно отсталыми. Родители не хотели иметь таких детей и решили сбросить непосильную ношу со своих плеч. Родители заплатили водителю автобуса, чтобы тот приковал детей наручниками, отвёз на заброшенную каменоломню и покончил там с ними. Автобус прибыл на каменоломню, но всё пошло не по плану водителя. Один из детей осознал, что с ними хотят сделать, снял наручники и сел за руль, когда водитель отвлёкся. Автобус поехал и упал в озеро. В живых остался только водитель, который выбрался из озера и умолчал о произошедшем.
Прибыв к месту происшествия, дети решают напугать Ронду и переодеваются в погибших на озере детей. Но вскоре из озера вылезают настоящие зомби-дети и нападают на незваных гостей. Ронда же уходит живой и невредимой. По дороге от каменоломни она встречает Сэма, но, не обращая на него внимания, уходит в сторону дома.

Лори — застенчивая 22-летняя девственница, готовится к вечеринке со своей старшей сестрой — Дэниэль и с их двумя подругами — Мэри и Джанет. Девушки покупают себе в магазине костюмы к Хэллоуину. Лори достаётся костюм Красной Шапочки. Лори устаёт от сплошных разговоров о парнях и говорит подругам, что придёт на вечеринку попозже. Они же находят себе парней и уходят. Вскоре Лори тоже отправляется на вечернику. Во время того, как она шла по дороге в лесу к месту встречи, на неё нападает облачённый в чёрный плащ незнакомец с маской на лице и клыками, как у вампира. В это время Дэниэль, Мэри и Джанет ждут Лори у костра на лесной поляне вместе со своими новыми парнями и другими пришедшими. Сверху неожиданно падает завёрнутое в плащ Красной Шапочки тело напавшего на Лори, после чего появляется она сама. Оказывается, что под маской скрывался Уилкинс, надевший поддельные клыки, а все девушки на вечеринке, включая Лори, её сестру и подруг — вервольфы. И «девственность» Лори значила то, что она никогда никого не убивала. Девушки превращаются в волков и пожирают своих парней, включая Уилкинса. За происходящим наблюдает Сэм, сидящий неподалёку.

Сэм
Криг — старый сварливый ненавистник Хэллоуина, который живёт со своей собакой Спайтом. Криг отпугивает всех детей, пришедших за конфетами. Вскоре из-за своей ненависти к Хэллоуину он подвергается нападению Сэма. Во время схватки Криг срывает мешок с головы Сэма и видит его истинное лицо — тыкву в форме черепа. Криг выхватывает ружьё и стреляет монстру в руку и голову, но тот не умирает. Прирастив руку обратно, Сэм достает леденец, надкусывает его, так, что тот по форме стал напоминать серп, и нападает на Крига, однако леденец попадает не в него, а в небольшой шоколадный батончик, который Криг ел ранее. Удовлетворённый угощением Сэм уходит, оставив Крига в живых. После произошедшего Криг сжигает фотографию с умственно отсталыми детьми и водителем автобуса, изображёнными на ней. Криг и был тем водителем автобуса. После к нему приходят зомби-дети, которых он собирался убить.

Q: iphone 6 ios 8 siri only working with external mic! I have a jailbroken iPhone 6 running iOS 8.2. My problem is that Siri does not work with the internal microphone. Siri and dictation work fine with any  external mic like the kind that you'd find on the stock Apple iPhone headphones.

A: do you have any tweaks or something that works with bluetooth, and or the mic?
to rule out jailbreak, turn off your phone and turn it back on while holding the volume up button, this disables all the jailbreak tweaks... like a safe mode, if siri works fine, then you know it has something to do with your JB if not? then it has something to do with your OS

A: You would start by quitting all the running apps on your phone:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the phone and test the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

A: Dictation and Siri uses the front facing microphone. This is separate from the microphone voice memo uses. I thought there was only one microphone on iPhone 6 which initially let me to believe Siri/dictation not working was a software configuration issue.
If the microphone is defective you won't hear audio after you record a selfie video saying "Steve Jobs was the bomb".

A: Ok this is SOLVED!!! Yeaaaa!! :-)
After I updated, Siri and Dictation quit working and only worked on Bluetooth!
I tried everything and spent days researching it on the web and no one knew anything!
I checked all the settings, I tested the memo mic and the main camera mic and all worked good. I was positive it was a software issue and it was... More or less.
Turns out that the selfee mic IS the problem, it's the mic on the screen side of the phone near the camera. And it's not the same one used for memo recording that's on the bottom!
Maybe my phone used more than one mic or a different mic for Siri and Dictation before the update, and then after the update used only the Selfee mic... I don't know, but I bought a camera and mic combo part and a pentalobe screwdriver to get the screws out and changed it my self.
And BINGO! no more Siri and dictation problems. WHEW!!!
