[dropcap]I[/dropcap] guess this qualifies as one of those #ThrowbackThursday things I keep seeing floating around social media, but it's not like me to be on time anyway so… what the hell.
Between the ages of twelve and thirteen I discovered being funny made switching schools easier. To lessen the awkwardness of being 'the new girl' I became a bit of a practical joker, someone who always had a ready smile and a jokey reply – even my school reports reflect it with one teacher describing me as "effervescent". The detentions I earned were outnumbered by the friends I made.
Humour bridges language and culture, and speaks directly to the soul. Sadly wit is no indication of happiness, as we're all currently too aware. I found this poem I wrote back then that could have applied to the comic luminary we lost earlier this week.
To carry on when you're sad and tired.
To keep them laughing as you try to hide
the grief that's spilling out inside.
The comedian.
Straight ahead, up-front, in full view.
Anxious, depressed, it's all you can do
to stop them seeing any clue.
To bear torture and pain with incredible duration.
To laugh and smile before the nation.
You've got to go on, it's your occupation.
But when things are good then it's okay,
you'll laugh and smile anyway,
and their applause just makes your day.
AA May '89
It's clunky and basic, and lots of people mercilessly deride their early attempts at poetry – often undertaken at a time when hormones were more in control of the pen than sensibility – but I'm grateful for its insight into the creative mind of a younger self who must've always recognised not only the interplay between humor and depression, but on some level, the value of spilling her thoughts onto the page. I'm a world away now from that twelve-year-old girl, but essentially still the same.
"You're only given a little spark of madness. You mustn't lose it."

For those who have never experienced depression do not understand it, for those who have experienced it understand that sometimes there are no answers but just knowing someone is there can mean everything.
I can really relate to that poem. So many people hide certain things through laughter, which is why robin williams suicide is such a shock x

Bravado. I used to be the same, infact instead of comedy it was alcohol for me!

I like your loving attitude toward your younger self. Isn't it fun when we realize that our current and younger selves are "essentially still the same"?
With so much talk about comedy being a mask for pain, I think we should raise a cheer for the gift of comedy. Not everyone can do it. When I was the new girl, I didn't know how to be funny, so I didn't say much for a while.
Sometimes I'd give anything just to be able to not smile – old habits/disguises are hard to shake off. But you're right – in all this bleakness we should be grateful for the sunshine of a smile.

Amazing that you wrote that poem at age twelve. There are many other examples of great comic actors (I can think of one or two English ones) who suffered from depression and often had problems with addictions too. Comedy is, indeed, a mask. Thank you so much – I found that Robin Williams quote too, and just love it. It is so true. But it's often that little spark that keeps us going…
I wrote a few between the ages of 12 to 15. It led my mother (a published poet herself) to give me a beautiful dark green notebook with a gold-coloured bas-relief border on the front cover to collect them in. I neatly copied all my poems into it in the sloping, elongated hand that was my natural style before I began experimenting with a rounded, squat print that featured double-storey 'a's and quirky descenders (isn't it funny the things we use to navigate the timelines of our lives?).
John Cleese, the late Spike Milligan and Stephen Fry are English comic actors with mental illness who spring immediately to mind. The comedy circuit is rife with it, and according to the findings of a study published in the British Journal of Psychiatry earlier this year, successful comedians display high levels of psychotic characteristics.
I nearly snuffed my little spark out – I'm currently coaxing it back to life.
Yes, another British comedian, Tony Hancock, committed suicide and left a note saying: "Things just seemed to go too wrong too many times." I remember him so well (childhood memories)…he battled alcoholism. That's funny about your hand-writing. When I was the same age, I rebelled against that sloping script and did much the same. I still write in that print with the funny "a"s to this day! Several American comedians too come to mind…Richard Pryor attempted suicide and also Martin Lawrence has had his problems. The list is a long one, isn't it.
Yes! Hancock's Half Hour. You're right, the list goes on and on…
Ryan Costello
How wonderfully appropriate with the news this week. Fantastic post. It shows that people can hide behind masks and suffer the effects at any age or at any level of fame. Sometimes it takes the big news stories like the one this week to make us pause and remember/realise.

Such a terrible shame, to lose someone of his talent x
Though I know your sentiment is well-intentioned, I think it's important not to confuse regret at the loss of exceptional ability with the tragedy of any sentient being reaching such a low as to feel it would be better not to exist, and acting upon it. That lives can be lost to such a misplaced sense of isolated worthlessness in our 'civilised' society is the real shame here – it's just unfortunate that it takes a 'high-visibility' incident to remind people of the seriousness and prevalence of mental illness. And even more shameful that it will be largely forgotten by this time next month.

The people who don't know my husband very well don't understand his humour. They often think he's being inappropriate because of some of serious issues he jokes about.
What they don't know is that he's used humour for the majority of his adult life to help him cope with his depression.
He's attempted suicide twice (he doesn't mind me talking about this openly with anyone so I'm not breaking a confidence) and has been admitted to the mental health ward on a number of occasions.
Thankfully, for the last 9 years he's not had to have anti depressants but I can tell when it's a day that he's having a battle with the depression. He's doing brilliantly keeping it at bay and I'm so proud of him.
When I asked my husband how he could have even thought about leaving his wife and 6 children (this all happened before we met) he said that in his mind, they wouldn't mind because they'd be better off without him. The thought of him feeling like that breaks my heart and I think that's why I was upset more than I've ever been at someone dying who I didn't even know. To think of him feeling so bad he had to end it makes me cry for him and his family.
He's lucky to have such an understanding partner. The ripple-effect of depression means it affects family members too.
I think, in the same way any parent reacts to hearing of suffering inflicted on a child, anyone who has had close experience of depression – whether directly or indirectly – can't help but be affected by the suffering of someone in its grip.
I wish you and your family love and strength and thank you for sharing this with us.
I see a lot of myself in people like this. I hide behind humour so that people don't see that I'm upset about something, as I feel like I have to maintain the appearance of the clown in front of my friends!

I love that quote from Robin Williams and must write it down somewhere, it's so true.
Fritha Strickland
He was such a wonderful man, such a terrible disease x
Such a tragic loss for his friends and family as well as all his fans around the world
Johanna Bradley
I love that Williams quote. 🙂
It such a tragic loss that a beloved actor known for making people happy ended his life so tragically. It goes to show that you never fully know people's personal battles. Lovely thoughtful poem x
agatapokutycka
Tragedy like this always makes me think about what I have and what is important to me and helps sort out the priorities. It is very sad that someone so loved by millions was so lonely.

Hi, Is it possible to increase the limit of the number of SAN domains in a single san certificate?
Currently, we produce 4 san certificates with ~100 domains in each certificate. We have ~400 consumer sites which need certificates.
The problem being we have noticed that the non www also needs to be put in the san certificate to make it valid if the user inputs https://example.com instead of https://www.example.com. Which would essentially double the number of entries.
We are limited to the number of IP addresses we can have, so only have 4 available for these sites. Hence putting them all in a san.
Can you not use SNI to use multiple certificates on one IP address?
Even if Let's Encrypt supported hundreds of SANs in a certificate, performance is harmed as clients have to download kilobytes of certificate to connect to the websites, and I believe you'll eventually run into TLS protocol and implementation limitations about how large certificates can be.
I essentially only need the limit increase to 200. I don't believe you can use SNI with san certificates.
Because we have 400 domains, I can't use individual certificates as the rate limit only allows 50 per week.
I don't believe you can use SNI with san certificates.
You can. All certificates from publicly trusted CAs use SAN at this point.
If they're separate domains, that's not an issue. Most of the rate limits are per-domain.
then create 400 certificates with non-www and www, use these with the 400 VirtualHosts.
It is not possible to change the 100 SAN rate limit. I would encourage you to move towards putting less names on the same certificate and using SNI as @mnordhoff and @JuergenAuer both suggested (thanks!).
Or add more IPs into the mix.

Syrian rebels say Russian jets halt advance on desert outpost
AMMAN (Reuters) - Western-backed Syrian rebels said on Wednesday that Russian jets attacked them as they tried to advance against Iran-backed militias in a region of Syria's southeastern desert.
They said six jets bombed their positions as they moved towards Zaza checkpoint near Sabaa Biyar, a small town near the Damascus-Baghdad highway and the borders with Iraq and Jordan.
They identified them as Russian because they flew in formation and at higher altitude than Syrian jets.
"A sortie of Russian jets bombed us to repel our advance after we broke the first lines of defence of the Iranian militia and took over advanced positions near the Zaza checkpoint," Saad al Haj, a spokesman for Jaish Osoud al-Sharqiya, one of the main groups in the area told Reuters.
The southeast of the Syrian desert, known as the Badia, has become an important front in Syria's civil war between President Bashar al-Assad, backed by Iran and Shi'ite militias, and rebels seeking to oust him.
They are competing to capture land held by Islamic State, which is retreating as it comes under intense attack in Iraq and along Syria's Euphrates basin.
Haj said none of their fighters were killed. Another FSA official, Said Seif from the Ahmed Abdo Martyrs group, also said Russian planes hit the rebels when they began storming militia defences.
The army and allied militias captured Zaza checkpoint and Sabaa Biyar this month to stop Western backed Free Syria Army groups taking strategic ground vacated by Islamic State.
Jets from a U.S.-led coalition against Islamic State hit pro-government Iran-backed militias on May 18 as they tried to advance south of Zaza towards Tanf, a base on the Syria-Jordan border where U.S. troops are training FSA rebels.
U.S. officials said the forces, which it described as being directed by Iran, posed a threat to U.S. troops and Syrian fighters it backs in the area.
The militias, believed to be Shi'ites from Iraq, retreated to the area around Zaza checkpoint and the coalition has since warned them to stay about 50 km from the base.
U.S.-backed rebels took Tanf from Islamic State last year and intelligence sources say they mean to use it as a launchpad to capture Bukamal, a town on Syria's border with Iraq and an important jihadist supply route.
The coalition's presence in Tanf, on the Damascus-Baghdad highway, was also meant to stop Iran-backed groups from opening an overland route between Iraq and Syria, intelligence sources say.
Damascus has declared the Badia and Deir al-Zor priorities in its campaign to re-establish control over Syria, which has been shattered by six years of war that have killed hundreds of thousands of people.

Play Dead — Off-Broadway YouTube video show preview.
Play Dead is a show co-written by magicians Todd Robbins and Teller, the latter best known as the non-speaking half of the illusionist duo Penn & Teller.
The opening minutes of the show are performed in complete darkness, and the show itself features tricks and illusions ranging from light-bulb eating to contact with the dead. The show stars Robbins as the narrator and is directed by Teller. It opened with a two-week run at The Calypso Room in Las Vegas in September, 2010. Teller told the opening night audience that it was headed directly for an off-broadway venue in New York City. It is due to open officially November 10, 2010 at the Players Theatre on MacDougal Street in Greenwich Village after running in preview since October 21.


BioCor Nutrition Forskolin is typically used as a weight management supplement, but is also sometimes used to assist with symptoms from asthma and allergies, help improve immune system function, as well as provide heart health support.
Found in the roots of the plant Coleus forskohlii, Forskolin is an entirely natural, herbal extract used for thousands of years to treat a multitude of health problems from high blood pressure to asthma. But it was the discovery of its amazing weight loss benefits that really propelled Forskolin into the public eye.
By helping to promote the breakdown of stored fats and increasing metabolism, Forskolin can help you lose body fat and increase your lean body mass.
It does this by encouraging the production of cAMP, a molecule that tells your cells to increase the fat breaking enzyme hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL).
HSL breaks down the fat stores within your cells. This release of fatty acids causes a thermogenic (heat producing) reaction, meaning you'll burn even more calories whilst retaining your lean body mass. With your cells in fat-breaking overdrive, you'll lose weight quickly and easily!
cAMP also stimulates your thyroid, which regulates your metabolism, meaning your metabolism is increased, allowing your body's fat breaking rate to intensify even further.
As a dietary supplement, take 1 veggie capsule twice a day. For best results, take 20-30 minutes before a meal with an 8 oz. glass of water, or as directed by a medical professional.


This is one of the cardamine (bittercress) group of plants which possess interesting flavours. In fact the flavour would be quite a good way of differentiating the members of the group. The photographs below were taken 11th and 13th April 2009 in Forest of Dean where the plant is quite common.
It is called Wood bittercress because it tends to grow in woods, mostly in damp places. Its other name - 'flexuosa' means wavy - is because the flower stems are not straight. Best seen in photograph 3.
It is in fact not bitter but definitely 'cress': flavour is very similar to hairy bittercress - Cardamine hirsuta, but it's a slightly larger plant. Both this and hairy bittercress are well worth adding to salads.
It's a tasty leaf which may be gatherable in reasonable quantity and is available most of the year in suitable locations.

So, Ernst Mayr has died. As one of the Grand Old Men of evolution, Mayr pretty well established, or as we would say today, framed, the debates of the last fifty years, and his books were enormously influential from the 1940s through to his most recent works.
But as we must not speak ill of the dead, this leaves me in a quandary. My book on species concepts focuses on Mayr being wrong on several counts, and I half hoped he would be around to respond. Since it is unlikely to get published for another year, that was always going to be a forlorn hope, but since he had a wicked pen, I am also half-relieved. A novice like me could be shredded by a magister like Mayr.
Also, Mayr was wrong as a philosopher about the nature of classification, but that's another story (and a research project for me). I will always regret not having met and discussed this with him, but I think it would have been a short meeting anyway.
Book Wars - when philosophers attack!
Oh God. I'm an academic! How did that happen?

Council approves upgraded crosswalks
By Peggy Kelly
Santa Paula City Council
The City Council approved crosswalks with pizzazz at key school intersections, including one that will help safely guide students to and from Grace Thille Elementary School.
The City Council approved crosswalks with pizzazz at key school intersections, including one that will help safely guide students to and from Grace Thille Elementary School.The council okayed the crosswalks at the May 19th meeting.Seeing upgraded or new crosswalks will be Harvard Boulevard at Laurie Lane, Harvard Boulevard at 5th Street, Ojai Road at Virginia Terrace, Ojai Road at Oakdale Place, as well as Main Street at 4th Street, Dean Drive, Cameron Street and Lucada Street."I'm asking for significant council action on this tonight," said City Manager Wally Bobkiewicz, who noted that an additional crosswalk - at 10th and Ventura streets, had been added to the list at council request."I believe staff can squeeze another crosswalk out of here," without deleting another location, he added."This issue was brought to the city by me when I saw these crosswalks in another state," that provide more safety than the standard crosswalks, noted Councilman Ray Luna.A motion detector triggers the crosswalk to display flashing lights when a pedestrian starts to cross the street, a light show that catches the attention of drivers.
Councilwoman Mary Ann Krause said she was concerned that a crosswalk might be deleted due to lack of funding, but Public Works Director/City Engineer Cliff Finley noted that budget shifts could fund all the crossings."Southbound traffic coming from Ojai is traveling at a great speed," said Krause, and with the lack of a traffic signal, "I feel it's very, very important," to provide a crossing at Ojai Road and Oakdale Street."Thank you for meeting our concerns," said James Medina, principal of Grace Thille School. "Every month we've had a meeting and every month parents brought it up. . .obviously, we don't have the funds to hire a crossing guard. I know parents will feel much safer in the morning.""This is going to save lives, really help," said Luna, who thanked city staff for finding a solution to providing more lighted crossing walks."Ray's been very diligent to get these crosswalks," said Mayor John Procter. "It's been one of his holy grails. . ."

In America there has been a massive surge in the electronic cigarette market which has lead to an increase in the amount of calls to poison control centres regarding children being poisoned by eliquid.
Senator Bill Nelson has introduced a bill called the 'Child Nicotine Poisoning Prevention Act of 2015' which would require that eliquid packaging be child resistant. Currently eliquid bottles can come in bright colourful bottles that are labelled with all sorts flavours that would be very appealing to children such as Bubble Gum, Cola, Chocolate, Cotton Candy, Pear Drops etc etc. The issue here isn't that the bottles come in these bright packages or that the flavours could be appealing to children, after all adults have taste buds too and enjoy sweet flavours, but the fact that they are too easily opened by children. The new bill would mean that all future bottles have some kind of child safety feature like a child-proof lid.
Features like can only be good and would be welcomed here in the UK – if it only saved one child's life the move would be worth it.

By giving its imprimatur to affirmative action, the Supreme Court has helped AA become a palpable part of the American experience. Offered here in a moment is an evaluation of that doctrine as it relates to air controllers.
The air traffic control system that has been nothing short of miraculous. Old-timers like me can never be complacent about this matter; we remember too well the old days when buying the paper in the morning risked facing a half-page headline announcing a new air crash. The FAA, however, has not been able to keep its hands off the system. Specifically, character and personality, not technical skills are now the first hurdle for would-be controllers.
Until two years ago most would-be air controllers would apply for training at a CTI (Collegiate Training Initiative) School. If admitted based on some combination of their academic record and piloting experience, and if able to finish the program, candidates would qualify to sit for the eight-hour AT-SAT, a test primarily of skills relevant to the job. Upon passing that test, and after an interview, they would be eligible for FAA training, at the end of which they could work as apprentice controllers for two years and then be certified as full-fledged controllers. In 2014 the FAA overhauled the system. Most important, CTI experience was no longer its first test for admission to FAA training. Nor did aviation experience count, only a high school degree, a few years of work experience in any area, and a passing score on a Biographical Questionnaire (to be discussed shortly). Only then are candidates eligible to take the AT-SAT and, upon passing, qualify for FAA training. The result: one-third of those qualifying for FAA training now have no CTI, military or other aviation-related training. At the same time, over 90% of air traffic control students have failed the biographical test, including some who had extensive military experience and who had earned the highest scores on their AT-SAT exams. These folks were thus ineligible for ultimate FAA certification.
In the light of contemporary economic and political conditions, no one can seriously deny that it would be wonderful to leave our children a world in which minorities are proportionately represented in employment. In this respect, the old system was indeed "broke," a point highlighted by acknowledged EEOC pressure on the FAA to ensure a more inclusive air control system and by FAA chief Michael Huerta's specific statement on the diversity objectives of the FAA.
In keeping with its original and continuing mandate to ensure safe and efficient air travel, the public face the FAA puts on possible tension between the two goals is a firm denial that any diversity objective lies behind the changes. How to proceed? Since the FAA has shied away from any real analysis, we have to do it ourselves.
Air traffic controllers would seem to be like pilots and surgeons who, above all, must master highly technical skills. Under the new FAA policy , however, the first test for qualification is not knowledge but "risk tolerance," "dependability," "cooperation," "resilience," and "stress tolerance," qualities that the AT-SAT test cannot reveal.
Can these tests be taken seriously, especially when students self-assess in the privacy of their own homes, and can thus be coached, when tests can be retaken, and when controllers spend their shifts in control rooms? Will these kinds of questions say anything useful about risk tolerance et al? Will the major causes of perceived failure change from year to year?
But beyond the cheating and the self-assessment, it is simply inconceivable that the number of sports activities a candidate played in high school is more relevant to success in air control than successful service as an air traffic controller in the military for five years. Indeed, a report by the government's own Office of Aerospace Medicine calling for Questionnaire "biodata" to be tested for validity supports this skepticism.
Since we cannot be sure that the FAA can be trusted to put safety first, its initial mandate, one has to wonder whether diversity might be weighted too heavily. The larger point here is that the FAA has not been straight with us. The first order of FAA business then should be to explain itself in full. Has technology replaced the need for technical skill? If the FAA continues to stonewall, we are left with the kind of government arrogance that rallies people to Donald Trump and, to the extent that the FAA is training people who may not have competitive skills, to a distinct sense of foreboding.

Newton Abbot Museum & Town Council
Unique treasure hunt with 'limited edition' geocaching trail
Schools, colleges, clubs, community groups and individuals have been invited to help create a unique history treasure trail around the Newton Abbot area.
The Samuel Baker Geocaching Trail is the brainchild of staff at Newton's Place, the new museum and community space taking shape in the former St Leonard's Church, Wolborough Street.
The trail, named after Victorian explorer Samuel Baker who lived in the town, is due to launch in June. Each month until November, willing volunteers will hide two new caches or 'treasures' in public places and leave them there for just four weeks. Each of the 12 capsules will contain links to information about objects in the Newton Abbot Museum collection. Clues as to their whereabouts will be accessed via a free app downloaded to the treasure hunter's smart phone or computer.
Anyone finding the hidden goods can leave their name and a message, then share their discovery on the geocaching.com website before slipping the container back into its hiding place.
In December a thirteenth cache, making a 'baker's dozen' in total, will be available from a Newton's Place stall in Golden Lion Square. Anyone finding the entire collection will be rewarded with a certificate.
"Geocaching is a hugely popular hobby and we thought this was a terrific way to share a little of Newton Abbot's history and celebrate the imminent opening of Newton's Place," said project coordinator Nigel Canham. "We think our trail will be very different to most others as our caches can only be found for a limited amount of time. We want people to hide the caches, then monitor how many hunters are finding them before removal."
"We've twelve secret histories to use as inspiration, ranging from camel dung jewellery to a swing made from human hair. We've also got Second World War relics and Stone Age tools. The trail is entirely free, whether you're hunting or hiding, and we will provide the equipment. So come on, who's up for taking part? You'll be supported throughout the project and it should be a lot of fun."

Counterpoint figuration – performance and paintings? What's new here? Nothing more than talent and freedom of showing art production without the institutional pressure. What the artist had in common is they paint and do figurative artwork. Representations of reality through contemporary approaches, techniques, colours and human bodies are back, giving us the idea of reading fragments of this reality once again. Reality that involves the Internet, tele-presence and our fictional scopes.
The title attempts to show that not anything can be love or money , we also needfiguration. Somehow the commission mean so badly something like: let's figure out what figuration is about again and again, sort of selling with love something that we can explain simply. How far are we from the bottom of our pockets? Maybe very, nevertheless let's see what new generations figured out about how unsure reality is.
Regarding performance – installations are other media in comparison to painting but also the approach is not abstraction, it involves the same question offiguration but in a different stage just performances touch the idea of gestures, doing ideas through the body, as brushes of concepts, actions attempts to do figure out what is about body again and again. As far as we cannot sell performance is more about installing the residual body of the action, like photography, videos, sculptures, costumes or drawings.
Maybe this exhibition is a bit far from conceptual art just near to something perceptible as a translation from today's time and feelings.

Lacking foresight, NCAA playing defense again
By Ralph D. RussoThe Associated Press
NEW YORK — The NCAA is on its heels again, playing defense of its archaic amateurism rules after missing an opportunity to get out in front of an issue.
Five years ago, a federal judge ruled against the NCAA in an antitrust lawsuit brought by former UCLA basketball star Ed O'Bannon, who claimed the association and its member schools and conferences had been inappropriately profiting from athletes' names, images and likenesses without compensating them.
The NCAA took an L, but it was far from a death knell for college sports. In fact, the NCAA rallied. An appellate court overturned Judge Claudia Wilken's ruling that schools should be permitted — though not required — to pay athletes up to $5,000 per year for the right to commercialize their names, images and likenesses.
Turns out that was a pyrrhic victory. The decisions from O'Bannon did not protect the NCAA from further attacks on its rules against athletes being paid for being athletes.
"There was never a prohibition on that," Michael Hausfeld, who was the lead attorney for the plaintiffs in the O'Bannon case, told The Associated Press. "There was just silence. (The court) just said the schools can't pay. That's extremely important. But the endorsers can."
Last week, California's governor signed into law a bill that prevents colleges and universities in the state from prohibiting its athletes from making money from things like endorsements or autograph signings. Politicians in other states, who have taken note of growing public support for college athletes being able to cash in on the billion-dollar business their work and talent makes possible, were quick to jump on board. In these divided times, politicians are reaching across the aisle to take down the NCAA.
By the end of the week, lawmakers in at least 10 more states had said they would follow California's lead — some more aggressively than others. California's law is set to take effect in 2023. A bill filed in Florida on Friday would go into effect next year if passed.
The NCAA earlier this year formed a working group, led by Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith and Big East Commissioner Val Ackerman, to come up with a way that athletes could be compensated for their names, images and likenesses.
"You now see probably what in physics would be the most delayed reaction to an action," Hausfeld said.
Ackerman and Smith's group is scheduled to present a report later this month to the university presidents that make up the NCAA's Board of Governors.
"You always want to be more proactive on any of these issues," NCAA President Mark Emmert told the Indianapolis Star last week. "Do I wish it had been started 10 years ago? Sure, but the fact is we were not in a place where we could do it."
It is important to point out the NCAA is the schools. The rules are made and passed by school administrators and university presidents. Emmert does not have power to enact policy and there is not a cabal of bureaucrats in Indianapolis pulling the strings. The one time Emmert did try to get out in front of something was in 2011, when he pushed for a $2,000 a year cost-of-attendance stipend for athletes. Membership rebelled. Wilken later ruled the NCAA could not prohibit cost-of-attendance stipends, and now most schools are paying more than they would have under Emmert's plan.
Emmert and others will point to other court cases working through the legal system as the reason why name, image and likeness could not be tackled sooner.
But forward-thinking leadership across the board in college sports is lacking, and it worries many athletic directors who don't see allowing athletes access to a free market as an unmanageable problem. The prospect of a wide receiver, point guard or midfielder becoming a social media influencer, starting a side business giving lessons in their sports or making $25 a pop for leaving fans personalized voice messages through companies such as Cameo is not keeping administrators up at night.
There will be challenges. Especially, as it relates to recruiting in the most high-profile sports. But athletic programs are already facing those challenges and it's possible a regulated free market could eat into a black market of payments to players that is near impossible for NCAA enforcement to disrupt.
Getting an administrator to say any of this publicly these days is difficult. No one wants to be seen as putting forth a contradictory message, especially when the NCAA could find itself back in court trying to fend off numerous state laws.
"Here's the irony. You have an entity that has been found guilty of violating the antitrust laws, restraining interstate competition, then seeking to assert that the states are interfering with interstate competition that is already being restrained by the NCAA," Hausfeld said. "I don't think they understand that that argument is coming back at them."
The NCAA has spent nearly $150 million in legal fees over the last three years. The prospect of dropping another $50 million — give or take — on lawyers to solve a problem that has been looming for years seems like another example of the NCAA paying full price for day-old bagels.
The chances Smith and Ackerman deliver a solution that will satisfy lawmakers seem unlikely. More likely the group pulls something from the recycle bin.
Instead of allowing athletes to access a free market and earn someone else's money, what administrators in college sports expect is a plan to give athletes money related to licensing agreements on things like apparel. The schools could essentially buy the name, image and likeness rights from athletes, build it into the cost of a scholarship and cover any Title IX equity issues by giving everyone the same cut. So, basically, something like Wilken prescribed.
It is hard to find fiscal sense in that. Instead of permitting the quarterback to make a five-figure deal with the local music hall to promote concerts on his Instagram, a school would be doling out thousands of dollars a year to athletes who would otherwise be lucky to earn more than beer money on their own.

Myers Bigel Biotechnology, Chemical Practice Groups Active in Industry Events
Myers Bigel Sibley & Sajovec, P.A. (Myers Bigel), the largest independent patent law firm in North Carolina, has started the new year with continuing educational outreach in the life sciences.
Attorneys in the firm's Biotechnology and Chemical practice groups have been actively sharing their industry expertise and best practices with organizations throughout the Research Triangle region.
"Myers Bigel continues to encourage our proven legal talent to improve and share their knowledge and skills garnered through their pursuit of undergraduate and graduate scientific degrees, as well as direct experience in the marketplace," said David Purks, Myers Bigel managing partner.
According to Purks, each of the attorneys in his firm's practice groups have experience and degrees in a particular technology, having graduated from quality engineering and science programs, many with advanced degrees, before earning their J.D.s. This rare perspective helps them deal with the unique technical nuances of every invention and better relate with scientists and academics in order to successfully obtain patents with real world value, he explained.
Recent outreach by Myers Bigel attorneys in the life sciences includes:
– Shawna Lemon, Ph.D. (Biotechnology, Chemical) was named as one of Business North Carolina magazine's "Legal Elite" and joined the Corporate Advisory Board of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, Carolinas Raleigh Chapter; Raleigh Chamber of Commerce Emerging Leaders Program; and the Advisory Board for Triangle Biotech Tuesday;
– Julie Richardson (Biotechnology) was named as one of Business North Carolina magazine's "Legal Elite";
– Mike Sajovec (Chemical) was named 2014 Lawyer of the Year by Best Lawyers;
– Rob Schwartzman, Ph.D. (Biotechnology, Chemical) spoke February 11 on "Patent Reform – One Year Later" at a meeting of the Licensing Executives Society RTP Chapter; and
– Ken Sibley (Biotechnology, Chemical) participated as a panelist on Business North Carolina's 2014 Biotechnology Round Table February 24 at the NC Biotechnology Center.
The Myers Bigel Biotechnology Practice Group remains active, representing clients in an important industry locally; estimates put biotech's yearly contribution to North Carolina's economy at $59 billion, supporting 237,000 jobs. Despite growth, the industry is dealing with economic and political changes, part of the focus of this month's 2014 Biotechnology Round Table featuring attorney Ken Sibley.
"While the America Invents Act has garnered the most attention, it is decisions by the Federal Circuit and Supreme Court which should have the greatest impact on how the biotech industry approaches patenting in the coming year," Sibley said.
He added that a major issue is bringing business and management practices concerning patents based on 20-year-old patent law standards current with today's state of patent law.
Sibley shared his views with fellow panelists Steve Butts, president and COO, Aerial BioPharma LLC; James Hayne, shareholder and technology and life sciences practice leader at accounting and consulting firm Elliott Davis; Phil Hodges, manager, Nano Ventures LLC; Machelle Sanders, vice president and general manager, Biogen Idec's RTP location; Eric Tomlinson, DSc, PhD, chief innovation officer at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center; president of Wake Forest Innovation Quarter; professor of physiology and pharmacology, Wake Forest University School of Medicine; and Michael Weeks, U.S. registration manager, Bayer CropScience. The Round Table will be covered in the April issue of Business North Carolina.

Nutritional impact of elevated calcium transport activity in carrots
Jay Morris, Keli M. Hawthorne, Tim Hotze, Steven A. Abrams, Kendal D. Hirschi
Nutrition recommendations worldwide emphasize ingestion of plant-based diets rather than diets that rely primarily on animal products. However, this plant-based diet could limit the intake of essential nutrients such as calcium. Osteoporosis is one of the world's most prevalent nutritional disorders, and inadequate dietary calcium is a known contributor to the pathophysiology of this condition. Previously, we have modified carrots to express increased levels of a plant calcium transporter (sCAX1), and these plants contain ≈2-fold-higher calcium content in the edible portions of the carrots. However, it was unproven whether this change would increase the total amount of bioavailable calcium. In randomized trials, we labeled these modified carrots with isotopic calcium and fed them to mice and humans to assess calcium bioavailability. In mice feeding regimes (n = 120), we measured 45Ca incorporation into bones and determined that mice required twice the serving size of control carrots to obtain the calcium found in sCAX1 carrots. We used a dual-stable isotope method with 42Ca-labeled carrots and i.v. 46Ca to determine the absorption of calcium from these carrots in humans. In a cross-over study of 15 male and 15 female adults, we found that when people were fed sCAX1 and control carrots, total calcium absorption per 100 g of carrots was 41% ± 2% higher in sCAX1 carrots. Both the mice and human feeding studies demonstrate increased calcium absorption from sCAX1-expressing carrots compared with controls. These results demonstrate an alternative means of fortifying vegetables with bioavailable calcium.

abstract = "Nutrition recommendations worldwide emphasize ingestion of plant-based diets rather than diets that rely primarily on animal products. However, this plant-based diet could limit the intake of essential nutrients such as calcium. Osteoporosis is one of the world's most prevalent nutritional disorders, and inadequate dietary calcium is a known contributor to the pathophysiology of this condition. Previously, we have modified carrots to express increased levels of a plant calcium transporter (sCAX1), and these plants contain ≈2-fold-higher calcium content in the edible portions of the carrots. However, it was unproven whether this change would increase the total amount of bioavailable calcium. In randomized trials, we labeled these modified carrots with isotopic calcium and fed them to mice and humans to assess calcium bioavailability. In mice feeding regimes (n = 120), we measured 45Ca incorporation into bones and determined that mice required twice the serving size of control carrots to obtain the calcium found in sCAX1 carrots. We used a dual-stable isotope method with 42Ca-labeled carrots and i.v. 46Ca to determine the absorption of calcium from these carrots in humans. In a cross-over study of 15 male and 15 female adults, we found that when people were fed sCAX1 and control carrots, total calcium absorption per 100 g of carrots was 41% ± 2% higher in sCAX1 carrots. Both the mice and human feeding studies demonstrate increased calcium absorption from sCAX1-expressing carrots compared with controls. These results demonstrate an alternative means of fortifying vegetables with bioavailable calcium.",
