Wednesday was a sad day for the Baltimore Ravens organization, current and former players and fans.
The team is mourning the loss of two players, outside linebacker Jaylon Ferguson and former defensive tackle and fan-favorite Tony Siragusa.
Baltimore Police say they found Ferguson dead inside a house Tuesday night on Ilchester Avenue. Police are calling his death 'questionable.'
Siragusa, known as "the Goose," played seven seasons with the Indianapolis Colts and five with the Ravens. Baltimore's 2000 team won the Super Bowl behind a defense that included Siragusa, Ray Lewis and Sam Adams. The cause of death was not immediately available. Siragusa was popular with fans because of his fun-loving personality, which also helped him transition to broadcasting after his playing career.
I'm reporting live on @wbalradio from @MandT_Bank Stadium w/ @C4WBAL & @BryanNehman on the morning after one of the saddest days in @Ravens history after learning of the deaths of a promising young player, Jaylon Ferguson, and a larger than life Super Bowl champion, Tony Siragusa pic.twitter.com/UxcrdaCnSf

The Baltimore Ravens released the following statements on the passing of Jaylon Ferguson:
Head Coach John Harbaugh
"Jaylon was a good-hearted, gentle person who loved his family and his team. He was a joy to talk with and be around every day. You always wanted to see and talk to 'Ferg.' Our prayers and our help go to his family. Our hearts are with his Spirit. R.I.P., Jaylon."
OLB Tyus Bowser
"Me and 'Ferg' went through some of the same struggles when it came to making a name for ourselves in the league. From that, we were able to gain an understanding and help each other build and grow as players. From the playbook, to the field – and even outside of work – we created a strong bond amongst ourselves. Whether I was having a bad day or vice versa, we encouraged each other, and that's what I appreciated most and what I'll miss about him. His positive energy, encouragement and his belief in me helped mold me into the player and man I am today. He will be missed but NEVER forgotten. Rest Easy, 45."
DE Calais Campbell
"Jaylon was a great young man to be around. He usually had a big smile on his face and would lighten up the room with a joke. He was just a great, fun guy. He will be missed."
S Tony Jefferson
"'J Ferg' had the most genuine energy I've ever been around. Before I left after minicamp in the locker room, he expressed how he was ready to have a big year, and I believed it was going to be his best season as a Raven. He will be watching over us, I know it, and he will bring the team closer just from his mark he left. He will definitely be missed. We love you, 'Ferg Dog.' May you continue to send your contagious energy to this team every day. We need it to get to where we want to get. You will never be forgotten in Jesus' name!"
FB Pat Ricard
"My heart is broken for Jaylon and his family. This doesn't feel real as I write these words. Life is too short to not cherish every moment and every person. Jaylon is someone I will cherish for the rest of my life. His smile and uplifting attitude are two things I will never forget. You'd find a smile on his face no matter how the day was going. His personality was infectious throughout the locker room, and there wasn't a person in the organization who didn't have respect for him. My deepest condolences go out to Jaylon and his family."
T Ronnie Stanley
"Jaylon had a pure heart. He wanted to be a great player, but never tried to downplay his teammates to get there. While going against him in practice, he would always tell me when I was doing a good job, even when it meant it was against himself. He was always with a smile and had an eagerness to learn. He wanted to be better for himself and his kids. He was so excited every time he had a new kid who was about to be born. He always talked about them and how he plays for them."
The Baltimore Ravens released the following statements on the passing of Tony Siragusa:
Steve and Renee Bisciotti
"Renee and I are stunned and heartbroken to learn about the sudden passing of Tony Siragusa.
"He was a special person and clearly one of the most popular players in Ravens history. Tony's larger-than-life personality made an enormous impact on our organization and throughout the Baltimore community.
"On the football field, Goose was a difference-maker who contributed immeasurably to the success of many great Ravens defenses, including the record-setting 2000 Super Bowl team.
"Our deepest prayers and sympathies go out to Kathy, their three children and the rest of the Siragusa family.
"This is a tremendously sad day for the Baltimore Ravens. We appreciate everyone who has expressed an outpouring of support for our players, coaches and staff."
Ozzie Newsome
"Goose was quite a character, but he was one of our leaders on the 2000 Super Bowl team. He was probably one of the best run-stoppers to play for our defense over the years. My heart breaks for Kathy, Samantha, Anthony Jr. and Ava. They are in my prayers."
Brian Billick
"There was no one like Goose – a warrior on the field and a team unifier with a giving, generous heart who helped teammates and the community more than most people know. We would not have won the Super Bowl without him. This is such stunning, sad news, and our hearts go out to Kathy and the Siragusa family."
"First of all, my deepest condolences to Tony's family. With Tony as a friend and teammate, you needed no other. He played and lived life to the fullest. He always reminded me to 'have fun.' This is a very sad day."
"It was an honor and a privilege to line up next to Tony Siragusa. He made the game fun and was a true competitor. Our D-line room was special on and off the field. May he rest easy, and may God bless and keep his family."
Jamal Lewis
"Goose was one of the most humble and funniest guys I knew. I can remember his locker being next to mine on gameday. He was never bothered and enjoyed life. While I had butterflies in my stomach, he was cracking jokes and pumping me up at the same time. Glad we got a chance to be together one last time for the Super Bowl XXXV celebration. He will be truly missed."
Ray Lewis
"This is a tough one. I love Goose like a brother. From the first day we met, I knew that life was different. I knew he was someone who would change my life forever. He was a one-of-a-kind person who made you feel important and special. You can never replace a man like that.
"On the field, he was the ultimate competitor who brought out the best in all of us.
"We should never put off tomorrow for what we can do today. Hug your loved ones for Goose. We were all so blessed that God gave us that time together celebrating our 2000 team a few weeks ago.
"To the Siragusa family: We have lost a great man, but God has gained a great angel. May they be blessed, held and comforted by the peace he brought to everyone who encountered him."
Matt Stover
"I am sorry to lose such a great teammate and friend. I truly believe that the Super Bowl XXXV team would have never been as good as it was without Tony. He not only plugged up the middle, but his locker room presence created a loose environment when things were tight. He will be missed, but not forgotten."
Rod Woodson
"Tony was always the life of the party. I know he loved his family and friends. My feelings are overwhelmed right now with grief for his family."

Item# S0569
S0569. DAVID OISTRAKH, w.Alexander Goldenweiser (Pf.): Epica Violin Sonata #3 in e (Medtner), recorded 1959. (Canada) St Laurent Studio YSL 33-028. Transfers by Yves St Laurent.
"David Oistrakh is considered the premiere violinist of the mid-twentieth century Soviet Union. His recorded legacy includes nearly the entire standard violin repertory up to and including Prokofiev and Bartók. In 1937 the Soviet government sent him to Brussels to compete in the International Ysaÿe Competition, where he took home first prize. With his victory in Brussels, Soviet composers began to take notice of their young compatriot, enabling Oistrakh to work closely with Miaskovsky and Khachaturian on their concerti in 1939 and 1940, respectively. In addition, his close friendship with Shostakovich led the composer to write two concerti for the instrument (the first of which Oistrakh played at his, and its, triumphant American premiere in 1955). During the 1940s Oistrakh's active performing schedule took him across the Soviet Union but his international career had to wait until the 1950s when the political climate had cooled enough for Soviet artists to be welcomed in the capitals of the West.
Throughout his career David Oistrakh was known for his honest, warm personality; he developed close friendships with many of the leading musicians of the day. His violin technique was virtually flawless, though he never allowed purely physical matters to dominate his musical performances. He always demanded of himself (and his students) that musical proficiency, intelligence, and emotion be in balance, regardless of the particular style. Oistrakh felt that a violinist's essence was communicated through clever and subtle use of the bow, and not through overly expressive use of vibrato. To this end he developed a remarkably relaxed, flexible right arm technique, capable of producing the most delicate expressive nuances, but equally capable of generating great volume and projection."

Community as a Verb
Posted byrogerbarbee January 25, 2023 Posted inUncategorized
Here in North Carolina, high school wrestling (folk style) is not a popular sport. But the participants and their fans are resigned to that and share an almost religious dedication and appreciation to the sport. This past weekend was sandwiched by two high school dual meets, one on Friday night and then one on Monday night. Both meets revealed more than good sportsmanship, the fantastic fans of the sport, and the athletic skill of the wrestlers gained through hard physical and mental work; both showed community as a verb.
On a January Friday night I drove to the high school from which I graduated in 1964. The wrestling team of the town in which I now live was competing there, and I met two of my high school teammates to watch the meet. The school athletic director met us and gave us a pre- and post-match tour of the athletic facilities. While showing us the impressive weight room, the athletic director told me that he had originally been hired as a teacher/coach by one of the teammates with me that night. That was only the beginning because all through the dual meet and afterwards, people would approach the same white-haired fellow and shake his hand, often hugging him, and energetically talking. All the accolades I heard about him that night showed how highly respected he still was for his years as a teacher, administrator, and coach. What I witnessed was a community acting as a verb to commend one of its own.
The following Monday match was at my hometown school against its big rival, and it was senior night as well. The rivalry, like so many between two near-by schools, is intense, so I wanted to attend even though it was my wife's birthday. (She agreed to my going but insisted on her birthday dinner the next night.) The school pep band played before the match began, a long-time teacher/coach of the school was recognized for twenty years of service, a student group (like Make-A-Wish Foundation) made a presentation to a youngster with special needs, and the seniors with their parents were introduced. Just like on Friday night, I witnessed community acting as a verb to applaud its own.
Participation, not success, is important for all youngsters. Yes, winning a chess tournament or swim meet or cross-country race or band competition is nice, but when we encourage (require?) participation outside the classroom for our students, we open other opportunities of community for them, and while winning is desired, it becomes secondary to being part of something larger than him or herself. In participation outside the regular school day, students are exposed to different stimuli than that of the classroom and its teachers. All classes, from bricklaying to calculus, are similar, but when a student steps out of that comfort cycle, that common routine, a new experience emerges. In the classroom students compete against each other for grades, but in those, to use my time period's name for them, extra-curricular activities, students learn what it means to be depended upon by others. Suddenly the old adage "A chain is only as strong as its weakest link" carries new weight and a sense of community (team) as a noun is born. But what I witnessed both nights was community as a verb, and it shows what we can accomplish when we come together to celebrate achievements that may not be big wins, but are reflections of our character.

BREAKING: United front of every single national gay civil rights group calls on Ford for urgent meeting
The nuance will probably be missed by Ford, but you can NEVER get all of these groups to sign on to the same request, ever. This is a BIG deal. Well, we can thank Ford for one thing, they've galvanized the gay community and its allies as never before. We didn't even have this much coordination when we successfully went after Microsoft.
From the National Gay & Lesbian Task ForceMonday, December 5, 2005
Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender rights groups call for urgent meeting with Ford Motor Company
Task Force Communications Department
Roberta Sklar, Director of Communications
WASHINGTON, Dec. 5, 2005 — Below is a unity statement on media reports of Ford Motor Company entering into a confidential agreement with the American Family Association:
"We are deeply dismayed by reports in the media and otherwise that the Ford Motor Company has entered into a confidential agreement with the extremist American Family Association (AFA) that requires Ford to stop advertising in lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) media. If there is an agreement with AFA, we expect Ford to disavow it. We expect Ford to publicly reaffirm its historic support for our community. And, we expect Ford to meet with LGBT representatives this week to resolve these concerns."

Fight To Win Pro heads back to California this weekend with one of the most stacked cards of the New Year.
Top competitors such as Joao Assis, Antonio Braga Neto, AJ Agazarm, and Baret Yoshida are all converging on Garden Grove, CA, this Saturday, making F2W Pro 61 definitely one event you don't want to miss.
Joao Assis is a monster on the mats. He took gold at ADCC in 2013 and is a multiple-time Pan champion in the gi. Though he has hit a rough spot in recent months with some submission losses, Assis is game as ever and a massive threat to anyone he faces.
Antonio Braga Neto is black belt under illustrious coach Roberto "Gordo" Correa. Braga Neto peaked early in his jiu-jitsu career, winning two black belt world championships by the time he was 23. He subsequently moved over to MMA and is currently signed to the UFC with a professional MMA record of 9-3.
This no-gi match pits Gracie Barra's AJ Agazarm against 10th Planet representative Chai Sirisute, an Eddie Bravo black belt and the current head coach of 10th Planet Long Beach. Sirisute possesses a dangerous triangle attack and is certainly looking to tangle things up with leg attacks.
Standing across from Sirisute at F2W Pro 61 will be AJ Agazarm. A man who needs little introduction, Agazarm is known for his outspoken personality and durability. Agazarm had perhaps the best year of his career in 2017, earning silver at BOTH ADCCs and IBJJF No-Gi Worlds.

History of Aviation
The airplane trip has a long and interesting history starting from the first commercial flight of 1933 on a modern passenger plane, Boeing 247. This important event became a definite sign in the airline's time line, but it was just one of many significant achievements. The following will highlight some of the fascinating sights of the aviation history that have marked the past century. [19] Zeppelin Hindenburg
1930s reveals the so-called aviation era of aviation history. German passenger airplane LZ 129 Hindenburg is one of these examples of popularity. However, the event surrounding this ship was sad as a tragedy that struck during the flight. Named the Lakehurst Naval Air Station at Manchester Township in New Jersey, the Hindenburg catastrophe happened to be an airplane caught on fire and crashed. Thirty-five deaths are counted in this tragic incident and without saying, trust in airships has dropped dramatically. Chuck Yeager interrupts the sound barrier
The sound barrier interrupted Chuck Yeager in 1947, marking another major event in that country. history of aviation. Yeager was an Air Force Pilot in the United States and flew the experimental Bell X-1 to Mach 1. The plane was at an altitude of 45,000 feet when that happened. The Bell X-1 is exhibited at the National Museum of Air and Space at the Smithsonian Institute. Yeager received more than one awards for this achievement, including MacKay and Collier Trophy in 1948, and the Harmon International Trophy in 1954. Myra, West Virginia, Later Later, through other obstacles, the sound and even the height. [19659002Boeing747
Fast forwarding from Chuck Yeager's greatest success to the 1970s, many people recognize Boeing 747 and are often referred to as "jumbo jet" aircraft. Cargo transportation and the commercial role of aircraft make it a significant part of the aviation history. This plane, Boeing 747, made its first commercial flight from New York to London at the beginning of that decade. Larger planes using the model include British Airways, Korean Air, Japan Airlines and Cathay Pacific. The Boeing 747, besides being recognizable, is important in its ability to handle such a large amount of passengers or cargo. In fact, it has kept the record for wearing most passengers for a few decades.
Zeppelin's Hindenburg crisis, Chuck Yeager's barrier sound barrier and the introduction of the Boeing 747 jumbo jet three of the many milestones in the airline. While there are many other events on the historical flight time, these events show some individual pieces of jigsaw puzzle. Events like these helped to shape the history of aviation and provide opportunities for learning and thinking. The flight has come a long way and will continue to change and grow in the coming years, making it an exciting part of technology and history!

November 11, 2010 At the bar, Personalities 3 Comments Churchkey DCColumbia Roomd.c.dcDerek BrownGina ChersevaniPassengerPassenger DCps 7'sScofflaw's Denwashington d.c.
Last week, I made a quick and mostly unpublicized visit to Washington, D.C. The reason for the visit? Simple. I had never been there before. That's right, I had seen other national capitols, but not my own. We had a little money to spare, and Jen and I talked about sending me down for a couple of days. I started watching airfares, and one day about four weeks ago, I saw one that made my head spin.
JetBlue, as it turns out, has just inaugurated service between Boston's Logan Airport and DC's Reagan National. The carrier has been flying between Logan and Dulles for some time now, but only on 11/1 did JB start serving National–seven flights a day, seven days a week. And as JetBlue does, they advertised a special fare: $7 each way.
That's not a typo. Seven dollars each way. Seventy dimes, seven hundred pennies, etc. So for $14 plus 21 bucks for taxes and fees, I had a round-trip to DC in my hands. (To put this into perspective, my train fare from Providence to Boston cost $7.75 each way. That's right, I paid more to take the train to South Station than I did to fly to DC.) I kept the trip on the cheap by staying in the Hosteling International hostel on 11th near K St. Yeah, bunk beds, but also? $40 a night, and in a convenient location. For two nights, I won't complain about bunk beds.
But these days, I can't travel anywhere without sampling the local imbiberterias. I had alerted my friends Sean-Mike and Marshall, of DC's superfamous Scofflaw's Den, to my impending travels, and they agreed to meet Tuesday evening for dinner and drinks.
We started at PS 7's, where I eventually lost track of my drinking. I met their bar star, Gina Chersevani, who is not only a great bartender but a real sweetheart as well. I started with the oddly named Gnome's Water–gin, cucumber water, lemon juice, and lavender. Very refreshing and tasty. Then, the Boiler Room–Bourbon, lemon juice, and Allagash White Ale. Delicious. There's something to these beer cocktails, I think. After that, details fade into the mist, in part because the light got dim and my camera was no longer of much use. I know I tried their delicious cider-bourbon punch. There was a Sazerac done up special for me. And we ended on shots of smoky, smoky mezcal.
We then repaired to the Passenger, and this is even more dim. I couldn't shoot my drinks at all there, and I no longer had the hand-eye coordination to take notes, so instead, let me play up the vibe of the place. Tuesday evening, not most bars' busiest night, and thus was also true of the Passenger. Nice sized crowd, though, and very mellow. We sat at the bar, me near a pillar covered in graffiti–much of which from visiting bartenders. I remember seeing Voisey and Meehan's names there, and I think some wag had scrawled Gary Regan's name next to a phone number that may or may not actually be his. The bartenders were chatty and attentive, letting me look at bottles I had never seen (High West whiskeys, for example, which aren't distributed in Rhody or Mass.) and suggesting cocktails we might enjoy. Passenger's co-owner Tom Brown was absent that evening, but his brother (and fellow co-owner) Derek was on hand, and he offered us a tour of the Columbia Room, which is closed on Tuesdays.
Jake Parrott arrived while we were at the Passenger, and after another round or two, we wound up at ChurchKey, a wonderful beer bar at 14th and Rhode Island. I started with a cask ale called Oliver's The Darkness. I remember moving on from there to a sour beer, but alas, the name of said sour is lost to the fog of inebriation.

The last day of school is quickly approaching for all my boys. Jered just took his last final today and Max's last day of class is May 31st. Even though we are super busy with a graduation party, Cub Scout picnic, Family camping trip, Maya's birthday, and Shimek school picnic, I'm trying to figure out what to do with the boys this summer. I have not signed them up for any actives as we are trying to move closer to my work and Jered's college.
My plan is to take a photo of doing each of these 50 things this summer - let's see if I can stick to it! What's on your list this summer?


Various collateral, ads and promotional materials and website for a state-of-the-art dance studio and theater complex.
Manhattan Movement & Arts Center (MMAC) is a state-of-the-art dance studio and theater complex located near Lincoln Center. Their existing identity was overly complicated and their marketing materials were a jumble of different styles and directions. The website, their primary marketing tool, was difficult to navigate and find information easily.
We were asked to completely redesign the entire MMAC identity and to integrate all of their advertising, marketing and branding into a cohesive system. Their logo was simplified and designed to give a sense of movement. A single typeface was implemented in all of their marketing materials, both print and web, allowing more attention to be paid to their dynamic library of images. The MMAC website was rebuilt from scratch to not only be more interesting to look at, but to make finding any information clearer and easier.
Since introducing MMAC's new identity and marketing, membership and class enrollment have dramatically expanded and their brand equity & awareness has noteably increased. As a result, MMAC has gotten much favorable press and are establishing themselves as a major force in the world of New York's performing arts.

With the combination of the fire screwing up everyone's schedules, me going back to college and everything else that happened this summer, I followed up what was probably my most Wildwood-intensive summer ever in 2000 by not going to Wildwood at all during the summer of 2001. This despite getting my brand new digital camera and finally having this Website to share my photography on.
I finally remedied that early this autumn by making a brief stop at Wildwood on the way back from the house, where I had taken my camera to help create a historical record of the house being torn down and rebuilt, now that that step of the process is finally happening. I didn't have much time to shoot, and in truth I don't feel comfortable going anywhere in public with such an expensive camera by my lonesome. But I managed to snap a few choice shots, and I wanted to share some of them with you all.
Last year I had intended on documenting the changing of colours at Wildwood in the autumn for L., but as I mentioned in my first Wildwood set here, I ended up bruising my feet pretty bad during a "scouting mission" and was unable to do so. I hope to do so this year, but owing to the radical shifts in temperature we've had over the past month in Toledo, that may prove difficult. Some trees are already threadbare although most are still green. These shots were taken just as the first shifts in colour were starting to take place.
For those of you who have followed my previous photographic work from Wildwood, the shots here are taken from both the Meadow Trail and the Floodplain Trail. Some of the landmarks should be recognizable from earlier shots.

A city planner who designed much of downtown Abu Dhabi for Sheikh Zayed at the start of the union has died aged 98.
Dr Abdulrahman Makhlouf planned the capital's grid system as he sat on the floor with the country's founding father at Qasr Al Bahr, the Sea Palace.
The result was a modern city built into a Manhattan-style grid with a striking cornice and dotted with modernist-era wonders.
His family confirmed on Tuesday that he was deceased. The National was able to visit his studio office several months ago to document his designs.
Sheikh Zayed told me … 'we want a capital for Abu Dhabi, and we have to get there as soon as possible'
Dr Abdulrahman Makhlouf, interview 2013
Dr Makhlouf, an Egyptian with a degree in architecture from Cairo University and a doctorate in Germany, first arrived in Abu Dhabi in October 1968.
He came to work for Sheikh Zayed after completing projects in Saudi Arabia and responded to a cable and a job offer from a UN technical office official who supported the emirate.
He fell in love with the city and never left.
"I said yes. I had already worked in cities in Saudi Arabia, like Mecca, Medina and Jeddah. So I knew the Gulf," he said. The National in 2013. "My father's name was also famous in the Islamic world, Sheikh Hassanian Mohammed Makhlouf, Mufti of Egypt. So my name sounded familiar.
"His Highness was away from Geneva when I arrived. By the time he arrived I had already done a survey of the area and made rough sketches of how the city should be developed. I headed for the airport when I heard he was coming and I was possibly the only Arab man standing in a tailored suit there. So when Sheikh Zayed noticed me and shook my hand and greeted me, he asked one of his advisers, "Who is this man? "
Dr Makhlouf said Sheikh Zayed had been informed that he was "the expert town planner, the one the United Nations mentioned".
"I am always in an elegant suit. It's not worth seeing in public without a tie.
Dr Makhlouf came to replace Katsuhiko Takahashi, from Japan, who was Sheikh Zayed's first town planner and whose plan supported Dr Makhlouf.
"I thought it was smart. It had the straight roads that we still see today.
The end result was a linear plan for the island, with Airport Road as the main backbone, which is largely unchanged today.
In the upper part of the island towards the ledge, which is wider, the pattern is a grid.
In our 2013 interview, Dr Makhlouf recalled asking the late president why he preferred the straights and quickly realized that he was a man who went fast.
"Sheikh Zayed said to me, 'I know where I am, and I know where I want to go, so why not use a straight line between the two points?
"We want a capital for Abu Dhabi, and we have to get there as quickly as possible."

Linlithgow Cycle Racing Circuit: First Look at the Planned Route of the Track


TAMPA, Fla. (AP) Jameis Winston isn't the only rookie the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are counting on to open the season as starters.
Left tackle Donovan Smith has been working with the No. 1 offense since Day 1 of training camp. Now, the team's other second-round draft pick, Ali Marpet, is doing the same at right guard.
And faring well in practice, where he's benefiting from going head to head against Gerald McCoy, the Bucs' three-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle.
''If you can block him you're going to be able to block a lot of other guys in the league, so it's awesome having a guy like him against you every play,'' said Marpet, who made history when he was drafted No. 61 overall out of tiny Hobart College, becoming the highest pick ever from a Division III program.
The 6-foot-4, 307-pound native of Hastings-on-Hudson, New York, was the Liberty League co-offensive player of the year last season. He impressed pro scouts with a solid performance against a higher level of competition at the Senior Bowl, and then bolstered his rising stock with a strong showing at the scouting combine.
Marpet played tackle in college, but the Bucs drafted him with intentions playing him at guard.
And the team's not concerned about the prospect of having two rookies on an offensive line responsible for protecting Winston, the 2013 Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback selected No. 1 overall.
Marpet, who's competing with two other young players to be the starter at right guard, lined up with the second-team offense for the first four days of camp.
He's continued to impress since being plugged in with the rest of the projected starting line - Smith, left guard Logan Mankins, center Evan Smith and right tackle Demar Dotson.
''We're bringing them along and they are coming along fairly quick,'' coach Lovie Smith said, noting both second-round draft picks have progressed daily.
Working against McCoy in practice will only help the 22-year-old, Smith added.
''For Ali, there is no better place for him. I mean, Gerald McCoy is on the other side. He's having to get up to pace pretty quick. ... I'm pleased where he is,'' the coach said.
''I think it was a smooth transition,'' said Marpet, who is competing with third-year pro Garrett Gilkey and 2014 draft pick Kadeem Edwards.
McCoy, entering his sixth season, said Marpet has the tools necessary to be a good lineman. All he lacks is the experience that'll provide the know-how and confidence to be effective.
Marpet appreciates the opportunity to learn from one of the league's elite defensive tackles.
''It is pretty huge. He gets me a whole lot, but knowing that I can get him if I am technically sound is huge for me,'' the rookie said, adding that McCoy has also helped him make adjustments.

Q: Looking for a way to trap CPUID instructions I am looking for a neat way to trap and fiddle with the CPUID instruction of Linux processes. Played around with ptrace() and patching all cpuid opcodes in all executable mmap'ed regions that are created by a process, replacing them by int3's. Didn't work that well since the CPUID opcode bytes appears quite often as parts of other longer opcodes.
So basically I am looking for some way that allows me to set a breakpoint not on a specific memory address but instead on every invocation of an opcode. Anyone has a good idea how to do that?

A: In general the only way to do this on arbitrary x86 code and catch all corner-cases is to either:

*

*single-step and examine each instruction before it's executed (PTRACE_SINGLESTEP, see below); or

*fully emulate the x86 instruction set.

The first way is probably better.
(Trying to decompile the opcodes other than just-in-time with single-stepping doesn't work because it won't catch cases like self-modifying code or jumping into the middle of another instruction).
To implement the single-stepping method, each time the traced process stops, you would use PTRACE_GETREGS to get the child's registers, then use the child's %eip register value as an address to pass to PTRACE_PEEKTEXT, getting the next word to be executed.  Examine that word to see if it's a CPUID instruction - if it is, emulate the instruction by adjusting the child's register set (including advancing %eip past the CPUID instruction).  Then call PTRACE_SINGLESTEP to let the process continue.

A: No easy nice way to do that I'm aware of.
A nasty way might be to use GDB's python scripting API to automatically single-step through the program, examining each instruction before it is executed.
Another nasty way might be to grab the source for something like Bochs, an open-source x86 emulator, and alter it so it does what you want when the instructions you are interested in are executed.

Status of Women in India
By suchitagarwal Nov 16, 2012 1245 Words
Women were considered inferior to men in practical life. But in scriptures they were given high position. Thus in past, the status of women in India was not clear. It was theoretically high but practically low. Women were prohibited to take part in domestic as well as in external matter. They were under the influence of their parents before marriage and their husbands after marriage. Thus, the position of women in ancient India was inferior. The position became worse even during the Moghul rule. They could not overcome the nasty Purdah system of the time. Further, there was the custom of Sati. Many women were forcibly sent to the funeral pyre of their dead husbands. There was no change in the fate of women even during the British rule in India. The situation began to change when many national figures started a struggle for India's freedom. Mahatma Gandhi openly invited the help from women. Many women came forward. Among them were Sarojini Naidu, Vijaya Laxmi Pandit, Mrs. Aruna Asaf Ali and others. Mrs. Indira Gandhi became the Prime Minister of India. She became a very famous woman in the world. With her, the status of women in India increased a lot. It was proved that women are not inferior to men. Many women thereafter occupied prestigious positions in India. They excelled in almost all fields such as sports, politics, administration, science and arts. The Government of India has taken all efforts to abolish the difference between men and women. According to the Constitution of India, men and women are equal before law. The government is laying special emphasis on the education of girls. In the recent competitive examinations, women have done better performance than men. (Kalpana Chawla's visit to the space has encouraged the young girls to make more and more research in the field of science today,} In spite of it, many women are suffering mental and physical tortures in their in-laws' houses. Their husbands demand more and more dowry. They consider their wives as good source of getting dowry. Bride-burning and bride- killing occur every day in India. This is how the status of Indian women is going down. The women can get back their rightful place in society if law is properly enforced to check male-superiority.
Women in ancient India were held in high esteem. The position of a woman in the Vedas and the Upanishads was that of a mother (maata) or goddess (Devi). In the Manusmriti, woman was considered as a precious being o be projected first by her father, then by her brother and husband and finally by, her son. With the passage of time, the status of woman was lowered. Muscle power and money power dominated the societies. Since men fought the wars and ran the enterprises of industrial production, they considered themselves superior to woman. In the early Vedic age, girls were looked after with care. They were given the facilities of education. Remarriage of windows was permitted. But in the later Vedic period, daughters were regarded as a source of misery. The practice of polygamy deteriorated the status of woman. Women in the later civilizations were not allowed to go to schools. In the Gupta period, they were allowed to listen to the scriptures. In the medieval period, the practices of purdha system, dowry and sati came into being. Sati and PolyGram were glorified.. It is thought that the right place for woman ins the home. Her main duty is to cook to all other menial jobs. They are considered fit for producing and bringing up children. Thus, women have been deprived of their rightful place in society and exploitation. has been going on for centuries. The inhuman practice of sati where the wife burns herself alive in the funeral pyre of husband existed through the centuries. Raja Ram Mohan Roy fought against this evil practice and it was finally abolished by Lard William Bentinck in 1829. After the development of science and technology, female foeticide is being practiced on a large scale. This has led to a drop in the female ratio. According to the census 2001, the sex ratio in India is 927 females to 1,000 males. Dowry have become common. The more educated and well employed a groom, the higher is the dowry demand. The birth of a girl child is, therefore, considered inauspicious. In many parts of India, women are viewed as an economic liability despite contribution in several ways to our society and economy. Early marriages lead to teenage pregnancies which often prove risky to both the mother and the child. Rape, sexual harassment, molestation, eve-teasing, forced prostitution, etc are a common affair today. The crime graph against women is increasing at an alarming rate. The condition of an Indian widow is quite deplorable. At home, the woman's contribution towards home as a housewife is not recognized. Sexual harassment at work places is also a common affair. It is a shame that even after over sixty years of independence women are still exploited. The 73rd and 74th constitutional amendments have provided 33 percent reservation for women in the Panchayati Raj System. Women have now started demanding their rights. They want to work side by side with men and contribution towards the social, economic and political development of the society. Swami Vivekananda has rightly remarked, "It is impossible to think about the welfare of the world unless the condition of women is improved. It is impossible for a bird to fly on only one wing." Women themselves should come forward and unite in the march towards improving their status. They should g\draw inspiration from empowered women like Indira Gandhi, the first woman Prime Minister of India; Vijayalakshmi Pandit, the firs woman President of the UN General Assembly; Kiran Bedi, India's first woman IPS officer; Kalpana Chawla, the first Indian-American woman astronaut, Pratibha Devsingh patil, the first woman President of India, and many others. Some of the great women of the pre-Independence periods are Rani Laxmi Bia of Jhansi, Chan Bibi, Ahilya Bai, Razia Sultan and others. Today modern woman is so deft and self-sufficient that she can be easily called superwoman, as she juggles many fronts single handedly. Women are now fiercely ambitious and are providing their metal not only on the home front, but also in their respective careers, education in the society. Women represent 48.2 percent of the country's population. Several developmental programmes have been implemented by the Five Year Plan. In 1985, a separate Department of Women and Child Development was set up. The major programmes include Support to Tanning-cum- Employment Programme (STEP) for women, Mahila Kosh, Women's Development Corporation, etc. The Supreme Court has made a ruling that a other has the right to act as the guardian of her minor child. It has made sexual harassment at workplace as an offence. The Indian Constitution has bestowed equal rights on women. They enjoyed all social, political and economic rights. For equal work, both men and women are eligible for equal wages. Women in Indian are coming up in all spheres of life. They are joining the universities and colleges in large numbers. They are entering into all kinds of professions like engineering, medicine, politics, teaching, etc. A nation's progress and prosperity can be judged by the way it treats its women folk. Men must recognize and accept the fact that women are equal partners in life.

"The summer 2012 issue of tasj featured scores of my favorite contemporary photographers, but somehow I managed to leave out Edward Burtynsky, whose work I really, really like (sorry!) There is something wonderfully chilling about his depictions of mines, quarries, shipyards and other industrial environments and the compositional structure of each piece always feels just right."
"Some of my favorite Edward Burtynsky photographs are pretty terrifying once you get past how beautiful they are. Somehow, through his lens, all of the horrors of industry look very beautiful. The world he sees looks entirely unfamiliar to me  like some distant planet. Unfortunately it is our planet."

Brian raises an interesting point that digital transformation isn't about digital. Digital after all is about IT, Cloud, SaaS or whatever the IT department does. Transformation is about the people and the process. New ways of working, greater efficiency, being more effective, having the right capability to drive the company forward in a digital and social world.
Too many projects are hijacked by IT, where there is I'm sure, cost savings, and a shiny new IT system.
Which is bit like digging up a road and laying new tarmac. You still go from A to B, but gain nothing.
Digital transformation is afterall about social, the people and the process, without whom there will be little or no business benefit.
As such, digital transformation is not or should not be about digital. It's greatest potential is achieved when technology enables human-centered experiences and the change that comes about inside and outside the organization as a result.

The Schroeder's
Posted on August 30, 2017 by ftpjames
James Francis Schroeder was born in Indianapolis on the 2nd of April in 1977, but was raised in Evansville, Indiana for most of his life. Just a few miles away, his future wife, Amy Lehman, was being brought up atop Reitz Hill overlooking the Ohio River. Both would share the same school hallways, modest homes, old cars and hardworking parents. After graduating high school, Jim attended Ball State University while Amy enrolled at the University of Evansville. They were married in 2000, and a few weeks later moved to St. Louis where Amy began teaching and Jim started his doctorate program in clinical psychology at Saint Louis University .
The next six years would later be referred to as the first part of their marriage, as Jim trained in St. Louis for 4 years and Amy taught as a 2nd grade teacher. They moved in 2004 after Jim accepted an internship at Kosair Children's Hospital through the University of Louisville, School of Medicine. Amy took a new job as a middle school teacher in Louisville, and again the following year upon their return to St. Louis for Jim's postdoctoral fellowship at St. Louis Children's Hospital, Washington University School of Medicine.
After six years without children, an unforgettable visit to the OBGYN introduced them to their twins! Zachary and Emma were born in June of 2006, and the second part of their marriage officially opened. So did the flood gates, as Matthew followed in 2008, Noah in 2010, Will in 2011, Louis in 2013, and most recently Samuel in 2017. Just like that, the Schroeder's had grown from two to nine, and what previously seemed busy was nothing compared to the blessing of the frenetic days upon them. "Dense and intense" became an often repeated descriptor of their family, with boredom an unlikely, but welcomed commodity. God's gifts were alive and real!
Meanwhile, as the family continued to grow, so did a number of other areas. Upon realizing that he was going to be the father of twins, Jim realized that he had grown complacent with his health and became motivated to make a positive change. So, a couple of months before Zach and Emma were born, he completed his first half-marathon. As Amy would later say, a spark was really lit after a serendipitous meeting years later. Throughout the next 11 years, he was blessed to finish the 2011 Ironman, 4 ultra-marathons, a 200 half-day bike ride,15 biking centuries, and a number of backpacking and other endurance endeavors.
As the endurance events and the family grew, so did the writing and speaking for mental health, medical, religious, and local media outlets. It all became part of a greater mission of "wholiness" – the synonymous drive of holiness and wholeness in all aspects of our being: physical, psychological, social, and spiritual. As a psychologist, father, and husband, it became apparent that the lifelong search of happiness, health, and harmony were intricately linked to the pursuit of wholiness. And so as the Schroeder family looks to grow in this way, we look to unite with others who desire this, too.


Better decision making is produced when all of the stakeholders from team members and project managers to executive management make determinations from a broader and more comprehensive context. The perspectives are then based on points of view that engage individual efforts as well as the business as a whole. This is made possible with the connection that a project manager makes with business management software.
Business management software contains valuable corporate intelligence on costs, resources, issues, risks, schedules and earned value down to the project level. This data can be rolled up to the program, cost center, business unit or other macro level. This functionality facilitates partnering between project managers and business analysts that evaluate the information from different perspectives.
Through the application project managers can view their work at an individual level and concurrently evaluate the impact of their project on the business as a whole. They can see how their resource usage affects other business units, how their expenditures or income sources impact the corporate bottom line and so on. With these insights the project management community can better partner with other components of the business.
Experienced project managers recognize that their work does not exist in a vacuum. They know that their work has to be justified in the context of the business' bottom line. Partnering is not an option it is a requirement. Veteran project managers are always conscious of how their projects fit into the corporate vision. They have an understanding of impacts: Resource, cost, schedule, risk and issue effects on the project and on the business. Project managers continually leverage business management software to partner their efforts with that of the corporation as a whole.
This partnering benefits both the business and the projects being sponsored. Further, the partnering allows for better decision making because all the stakeholders from team members and project managers to executive management make determinations from a broader and more comprehensive context. The perspectives are now based on points of view that engage individual efforts as well as the business as a whole.
When there are new projects or initiatives the insights based on this partnering facilitate in depth requirements gathering. The elicitation of requirements can now include the output of the business management software. Examples of this include the following: Securing resource requirements but with advance knowledge of certain impacts, obtaining cost requirements but with a prior understanding of some effects that can preface the question set.
Partnering not only makes business and project sense but creates the foundation for new organizational structures. A good example of this is how project management offices (PMO) oftentimes becomes a critical part of a company linking project managers with executive management. This type of application is precisely the type of software that facilitates the development and evolution of PMO's. PMO's are a prime example of business-project level partnering.

This paper describes 3D-QSAR analysis and biological evaluation of 1,5-benzodiazepine analogues. Benzodiazepine nucleus with its simple structure gives a good opportunity for further modification regarding an increase of its antimicrobial activity. We synthesized a series of benzodiazepine analogues from condensation of various chalcones and halo substituted o-phenelynene diamines. All compounds were assayed in vitro against, E. coli, P. aeruginosa, S. aureus. The models were generated on the Vlife MDS 3.5; selected models showed a correlation coefficient (r2) above 0.9 with cross-validated correlation coefficient (q2) above 0.8, respectively, for all the selected organisms. The 3D-QSAR models generated were externally validated for all models using a test set of 6 molecules for which the predictive r2 (r2-pred) was found to be above 0.45. The results of 3D-QSAR indicate that contours can be used to design some potent antibacterial agents.
Diazepine ring is the backbone of several antibacterial [1-6], antileishmanial  anti-fungal , and anti-inflammatory  agents. Considering the scope for further studies on diazepine derivatives we have synthesized some new 2,4-disubstituted -1, 5-benzodiazepine derivatives and screened them for antimicrobial activity. The process of pharmaceutical drug design usually begins the discovery of a lead molecules and followed by its optimization which include its synthesis and testing of thousands of derivatives of the lead structure in order to find out the cilinically usefull drug. Computational methodologics have grown rapidly over the past few years and played an important role in the development of a number of drugs available in the market or undergoing clinical trials. Scientists have used quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR) models to predict the activity of new molecules. In the recent past, some efforts have been made to understand three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationships (3D QSAR) with respect to antibacterial agents. In the present study,report 3D QSAR studies on several novel 2,4-disubstituted benzodiazepine derivatives and a correlation to predict the antibacterial activities with high degree of reliability. We performed QSAR studies to relate the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) required to inhibit growth of E. coli (NCIM27350), S. aureus (NCIM01065), P. aeruginosa (NCIM501), with the 3D QSAR descriptors. The QSAR model was developed using multiple linear regression (MLR) and validated using an external test set of compounds.
stretching); 2980.21 (CH-stretching); 1413 (C=N deformation); 790 (C-Cl deformation).
The IR (KBR) spectra of the synthesized compounds were recorded on a Jasco- FTIR 4100 instrument. The 1H NMR spectra of the compounds were recorded on 400 MHz Varian NMR, using DMSO as solvent. This series was subjected to QSAR studies using V life MDS 3.5 running on P-IV processor.
Table 1. Substitution of the 2,4-disubstituted-1,5- benzodiazepine derivatives.
Figure 1. The alignment of all synthesised molecules.
All of the compounds were screened for antibacterial activity against E. coli (NCIM27350), S. aureus (NCIM01065), and P. aeruginosa (NCIM501) by serial dilution method. Ciprofloxacin used as standard drugs for antibacterial activity. Test solutions at the concentrations of 1000, 750, 500, 250, 125, 62, 31.5 μg/ml were added to the respective cavity aseptically and labeled accordingly. Standard was added in concentration of 100 mg/ml. The plates were kept undisturbed for at least 2 h at room temperature to allow diffusion of the solution properly in the nutrient agar medium. After incubation of the plates at 37±1 °C for 24 h, the minimum inhibitory concentration was determined.
The molecules of the dataset were aligned by the atom -fit technique, using atoms common with the structure of benzodiazepine. The most active molecule was selected as a template for alignment of the molecules. The alignment of all the molecules on the template is shown in Figure 1.
Like many 3D QSAR methods, a suitable alignment of given set of molecules was performed using the Vlife MDS 3.5 Engine .
The dataset was divided into a training set and a test set molecules on the basis of chemical and biological diversity using the random selection method for generation of the training and test set data. The molar inhibitory concentration (pMIC) values for antifungal activity were used for the present 3D-QSAR study. The molecules which are selected for QSAR analysis are shown in Table 1.
A relationship between independent and dependent variables (3D fields and biological activities, respectively) were determined statistically using regression analysis. Linear regression is achieved by fitting a best-fit straight line to the data using the least squares method. The quality of fit for a regression equation was assessed relative to its correlation coefficient and standard deviation. The F value represents the level of statistical significance of the regression. Quality of selected models was further ascertained to select the best model from cross-validated squared correlation coefficient (q2).
To systematically assess a QSAR model, a reliable validation is required. Usually, a QSAR model is evaluated by the predictive results for the given dataset. Selected models having r 2 above 0.7 were checked for their external predictivity. The observed and the predicted values for antibacterial activity are shown in Table 3.
Scheme 1. Reaction for the synthesis of 1,5-benzodiazepines.
Figure 3. Correlation plot of observed vs predicted activity for model A.
The 2,4-disubstituted-1,5-benzodiazepine were prepared by condensation of chalcones with halo substituted o-phenylenediamine (OPA) (scheme-I, table1). The first step was synthesis of various substituted chalcones as per reported procedure, the synthesized chalcones were confirmed by physicochem-ical analysis. In the second step, carbonyl group of chacones was reacted with halo substituted OPA in presence of glacial acetic acid to form 2,4-disubstituted -1,5-benzodiazepine. NMR data of the 2,4-disubstituted- 1,5-benzodiazepine derivatives is shown in Table 2. The use of microwave irraditation augmented the yield of the reaction upto 93-95% and also led to decrease in reaction time to about 10 min. Results of Infrared and NMR analysis confirmed formation of the desired product. IR spectrum of the compounds showed peaks in the region 3070-3220 cm-1 (N -H stretching), 1645-1655 cm-1 (C=N) as diagnostic absorptions. The NMR spectrum showed NH peak between 3.6-4.2 ppm indicated cyclization to form diazepine ring.
For the current QSAR study, 24 molecules were used in the training set (Table 1), with the number of field grid points being not more than four per model. To evaluate the predictive ability of generated 3D-QSAR models, a test set of six molecules with regularly distributed biological activities was used. A prerequisite for QSAR study is a congeneric series of molecules, all having the same mechanistic profiles with similar functional properties. Congenericity is a challenging task to define, though it is well-documented that all molecules in a set should have the same molecular framework with structural variation in one or several positions. On successful runs of MLS, different sets of equations were generated by keeping the chain length of equations to four, and these equations were further analyzed statistically to select the best model. As shown in Table 4, two models were selected after screening various combination of different descriptors.
Figure 4. The field points for model B.
Figure 5. Correlation plot of observed vs predicted activity for model B.
Figure 6. The field points for model C.
The model A describes the structural features optimum for the antibacterial activity against S. aureus. The steric and electrostatic fields were calculated using the Merck Molecular Force Field and Gasteiger-Marsili charges. The model was selected on basis of r2, q2, pred r2 and F values. The r2 value for model A was 0.9032, q2 was 0.8116 and the external predictivity of model A is found to be 0.5134. The points selected for the QSAR equations are shown in Figure 3. The contribution of points E-552 (electrostatic interaction field, Blue points) and S-540 and S-415 (steric interaction field, green points) at lattice points 552, 540 and 415 along with points H-502 (hydrophilic interaction field, yellow points) at lattice point 502, imply that these points are needed to be considered for the structure-activity relationship. The negative contribution of the fields point indicates that the addition of groups having lower steric interaction at lattice point 540 and 415 (green point in Figure 2) and groups having electrostatic interactions at lattice points 552 (blue point in Figure 2) are required for amplified activity against S. aureus. Along with this the fields H-502 which contribute negatively to the activity also need to be taken into account. The hydrophilic interactions at lattice point 502 (yellow point in Figure 2) needs to be reduced. The substitutions on the phenyl ring of the benzodiazepine ring should show less steric and hydrophobic interactions to show a better activity against S. aureus.
Figure 7. Correlation plot of observed vs predicted activity for model C.
The model B describes antibacterial activity against P. aeruginosa. The r2 value for model B was 0.9455. The points that were found optimum for the activity after the QSAR study are shown in Figure 4. The contribution of points S-743 which is steric and E-312, E-469, E-334 which are electrostatic interaction fields (green and blue points, respectively), imply that these points are indeed significant for the structure-activity relationship. The positive contribution of the fields E-469 and E-334 and S-743 indicates that the addition of groups having electrostatic interaction at lattice point 469 and 334 (blue point in Figure 4) and 742 (green point in Figure 4) are required for amplified activity against P. aeruginosa. Along with this the fields E-312 which contribute negatively to the activity also need to be taken into account. Thus increasing the groups with electrostatic interactions on the phenyl ring of benzodiazepine will lead to better actvity. While some groups with steric interactions at the phenyl ring on second position of the diazepine ring should augment activity.
The model C describes the properties required for the activity against E. coli. The r2 value for this model C was 0.9834. The F test value was found to be 108.51 which is considered for the selection of model. The points that were found optimum for the activity after the QSAR study are shown in Figure 6, S-482, S-371 and S-460 which are the steric interaction fields and along with H-388 which is the hydrophobic interaction field (yellow point) at lattice point 388, imply that these points are important for the structure-activity relationship. The positive contribution of the fields S-482, S-371 and S-460 indicates that the addition of groups having steric interaction (green point in figure 6) are required for amplified activity against E. coli. Whereas the field H-388 which contribute negatively to the activity should be decreased to augment the activity.

The 3D-QSAR models described in this work show both good internal and external predictivity and provide important contribution to the field of designing novel antibacterial agents. From the 3D QSAR studies steric and electrostatic contour maps we can conclude that electronegative groups surrounding the bezodiazepine moiety are related to improved potency. In addition, the favorable steric contours suggest that aromatic bulky groups at the bezodiazepine moiety may increase ligand potency. The 3D QSAR models should be useful for the design of new structurally related potential antibacterial having improved affinity and potency.

Q: Radio button javascript validation I have 2 radio buttons A & B. the B button also have one text field.
By default next button is hidden and it should appear in the following cases

*

*If user click button A

*User click button B and enter text in the textfield

I try this:
JavaScript
window.onload=function(){
   document.getElementById("next").style.display='none';
}

function shownext(){
  var A = document.getElementById('A').value;
  var B = document.getElementById('B').value;
  var name = document.getElementById('name').value;
  if(A != "" || (B != "" && name != "")){
  document.getElementById("next").style.display='block';
     return false;
  }
  if(A == "" && B == "" && name == ""){
  document.getElementById("next").style.display='none';
     return false;
  }
}

HTML
<input type="radio" name="A" id="A" value="A" onClick="shownext();"/>
<input type="radio" name="A" id="B" value="B" onClick="shownext();"/>
<input type="text" name="name" id="name" onKeyDown="shownext();" onKeyUp="shownext();"/>

A: You have a syntax error in your first if statement — you're opening more parentheses than you're closing.
Your radio buttons always have a value, so you cannot check their state by just inspecting the value. You need to inspect their checked property instead.
You also don't need both ifs, an else to the first if would be more appropriate, since you basically have only two possible outcomes (show the "next" button or hide it).
Here is a working demo of the fixed code.
