Red sea of Clippers fans lifts team to win

When Blake Griffin ran onto the court to warm up before Game 3, his senses were overcome by the spectacle of an undulating and screaming sea of red.

"That was the loudest we had heard it," Griffin said of the sellout crowd of nearly 20,000 at Staples Center, many of whom had donned red Clippers T-shirts."Just that energy throughout our whole warmup, the intros, the start of the game, and then parts of the game it was unbelievable."

Chris Paul took it a step further.

"I think this is one of those games that the crowd won the game for us," he said.

Saturday afternoon was Griffin and Paul's first playoff game in Los Angeles, a city known for its celebrities, gorgeous beaches and relatively quiet sports arenas peopled with fans who are reputed to be too cool to yell their heads off.

That all changed in the Clippers' 87-86 win over the Memphis Grizzlies in Game 3 of the teams' first-round Western Conference playoff series, a streaky game in which the Clippers fans spent much of their time standing and Staples Center decibel levels often escalated to piercing volumes.

"I've only been here for a year, but I hadn't seen anything like that," said Chris Paul, who led the Clippers with 24 points on eight-for-19 shooting and 11 assists.

The Clippers entered the fourth quarter trailing by eight, 72-64. Paul, one of the consummate closers in the league, said at that point he felt a responsibly to the fans to turn things around.

"Coming in here seeing all that red, seeing all the fans on their feet and cheering and celebrating we had no choice but to go out there and play hard and to fight," Paul said.

Paul went on to lead the Clippers with seven points in the final period, slicing his way though outstretched Grizzlies hands to give the Clippers a six-point lead with 23 seconds remaining.

'White Rabbit, Red Rabbit' review: never the same

Siana Hristova / The Chronicle

Josh Kornbluth performs in the Bay Area debut of "White Rabbit, Red Rabbit," a play by Iranian writer Nassim Soleimanpour, performed by an actor without rehearsal each time.

White Rabbit, Red Rabbit: Solo show. By Nassim Soleimanpour. Through May 20. San Francisco International Arts Festival, International Festival Lounge, 540 Sutter St., San Francisco. One hour. $12-$15, subject to change. (415) 771-6900, http://www.sfiaf.org.

Josh Kornbluth clutches the script tightly with both hands and throws himself into the unfamiliar words with customary earnest nervousness. Actor Sean San Jos attacks the same lines with edgy, restless verve, sitting, pacing, even climbing a ladder as he lets each finished page fall to the floor.

Each approach to Iranian playwright Nassim Soleimanpour's "White Rabbit, Red Rabbit" contains its own unexpected rewards - and none will be repeated. One of the beauties of this captivatingly oddball declaration of artistic freedom is the diversity of the artists lined up to perform it in the San Francisco International Arts Festival.

Soleimanpour wrote it for just such a purpose. Denied a passport to leave Iran, because he'd refused military service, he defied Iran's cultural blockade by writing "Rabbit" in English and sending it out to be performed by others. It premiered last year at the Edinburgh Fringe and Toronto SummerWorks festivals and has already been performed in at least 15 countries in a variety of languages. (He was finally given a passport four months ago, but has yet to see the work performed.)

Every performance is unique - because each performer can do it only once, without having read, seen or heard a description of it before getting the script at the beginning of the show. The few prior instructions include the pronunciation of the author's name, a note about indicating departures from the script and a heads-up to be prepared to imitate an ostrich.

Yes, there are ostriches - and bears, cheetahs, crows and, of course, rabbits - as both narrative and metaphorical devices. There's also audience participation, of a (mostly) nonthreatening and peculiarly rewarding nature.

More significantly, there's a magnetic mind behind the prose. "Rabbit" is a lightly comic, deceptively discursive, metatheatrical monologue that - without, I hope, giving too much away - raises provocative questions about the nature of theater, social responsibility, personal freedoms, suicide and the "limits of obedience."

It's also so different in tone, emphasis and impact in the hands of different actors that it's a treat to see more than once. Kornbluth's and San Jos's back-to-back opening night shows - Friday in the intimate back room of the gallery that serves as the festival's gathering place - evoked remarkably distinct elements of and reactions to the script.

How Google Execs Get Fly at NASA Ames

You know the name Google, but have you heard of H211? It's the private holding company named after a hangar at NASA's Moffett Field. Inside that hangar sits a fleet of airplanes that have been parked there since 2007. So how does Google play into this? The same men who run Google are the principals of H211.

Ken Ambrose is the Executive Director and Vice President of H211. He usually shies away from the spotlight. In fact, this is the first time he allowed TV news cameras in the cockpit as he flew a scientific mission for NASA, measuring ozone and greenhouse gases. But science is just one component of H211's mission here.

In an interview on the tarmac at NASA, NBC Bay Area's Stephen Stock said to Ambrose, "There are some critics who say wait a minute, this is just a well-connected, well heeled, well financed group of people flying their private jets in and out of a government run facility.""I don't think we're doing anything all that unusual. We're willing to do it and we're willing to pay for it," Ambrose answered Stock.

And pay they do. According to an agreement with NASA, H211 shells out $113,365.74 a month. That's a third more rent than they'd have to pay at most other airports. "Why is it so important for H211 to be here, here at NASA," Stock asked Ambrose who answered. "Good question.It's expensive, but it's proximate."

And that's the rub. Google headquarters sits just blocks away from Moffett Field. "Is it coincidence that the founders are just across the street," Stock asked Ambrose. He answered, "Sure, it's convenient."

By policy, NASA won't let just any private company use government facility such as NASA Ames, but there are exceptions says NASA's Debra Fena. "We welcome anybody who wants to have a place on the NASA research park use the airfield who do two things. Have a NASA alignment to one of our missions, and is financially solvent." In other words, private planes like the fleet owned by H211 and Google's principals parked inside a taxpayer owned hangar must be used for scientific research. How much scientific research isn't specified.

"Some would say well that's just an excuse in order for Google or H211 to park their private planes here," Stock said to Fena. "It's a pretty expensive excuse for them. Our space act agreement is right now aligned with our airborne earth science requirements, data that we couldn't otherwise collect and we are very proud of that alignment. We are very proud of the relationship that has worked thus far since 2007," Fena replied back.

Make no mistake, there is science being done here with the help of these private planes. Dr. Laura Iraci is the science lead for NASA on the project that uses the H211 modified German fighter. She says, "Bad air quality days, good air quality days, having access over and over again to sample the same location is really quite valuable. And it's not something that's often available. Aircraft like this are hard to come by and they are expensive to operate."

"How many of these flights have you flown?" Stock asked Iraci. "This makes our 42nd scientific flight," she answered. "Out of how many years?" "A little more than two."

Ken Ambrose says he's flown more than 80 such flights in that jet. But what about the other planes kept in this hangar? Are they flying scientific missions?

NASA's ER-2 completes MABEL validation deployment

ScienceDaily (May 5, 2012) NASA's high-flying ER-2 Airborne Science aircraft has concluded its four-week deployment to validate data acquired by the Multiple Altimeter Beam Experiment Lidar (MABEL) laser altimeter over the Greenland ice cap and surrounding sea ice fields.

After an almost 10 and one-half hour transit flight from its deployment base in Keflavik, Iceland, NASA ER-2 pilot Stu Broce landed ER-2 806 April 27 at the Dryden Aircraft Operations Facility at Air Force Plant 42 in Palmdale, Calif. The lengthy flight from Iceland included data collection by the MABEL instrument over a portion of broadleaf deciduous forest in Wisconsin. The ground support and science crew that supported the flights returned several days later.

"We completed 100 percent of the science flights," said Broce, noting that they were able to acquire data on several additional ad hoc targets that were not in the original plan. "The weather cooperated, the plane worked well as did the science instruments."

The ER-2 flew more than 100 hours on 16 flights in the MABEL validation campaign, including 14 data collection flights over Greenland and surrounding sea ice areas and two transit flights between Keflavik and its home base in Palmdale. Several of the flights were conducted concurrently and on the same flight tracks as flights of other NASA environmental science aircraft involved in the Arctic IceBridge campaign in order to compare data being recorded by the MABEL with instruments on the other aircraft.

Broce had one word to describe the areas of Greenland over which the ER-2 flew: desolate.

A former Air Force pilot, Broce had not flown in this area of the world before the MABEL mission. He noted that one flight took him to 84 degrees north latitude where, he commented, the sun is at a very low angle.

Targets of the flights included wide areas of Greenland's ice sheets and surrounding sea ice fields, the Jacobshavn, Svalbard and East Glaciers, and a volcano in Iceland.

NASA ER-2 research pilot Tim Williams, Dryden's senior representative on the deployment, noted that more than 5.5 terrabytes of data was collected by the MABEL laser altimeter, the Cloud Physics Lidar and other instruments on board the ER-2 during the mission.

MABEL was developed at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center to simulate a similar instrument planned for NASA's IceSat-2 environmental satellite that is scheduled for launch in 2016. Scientists consider laser altimetry from satellites or aircraft to be the most accurate method of gauging changing elevations over a period of time, and thus determine the thickening or thinning of Arctic or Antarctic ice fields and sea ice related to climate change.

Flight and science team members participated in a number of public and educational outreach activities during their stay in Iceland, including briefings on MABEL and IceSAT-2 during a speech on climate by Iceland's president, to the U.S. ambassador and embassy personnel, and to middle- and high-school students, the University of Reykjavik and the Keiler Aviation Academy in Keflavik.

Funds crunch hits Pakistan’s surge in nanotech research

Pakistan's spike in nanotech research publications has been hit by funds crunch.

Flickr/nic221

[KARACHI] Nanotechnology research in Pakistan, which had shown a trend of higher publication numbers over the last decade, has suffered from the countrys present financial crisis, a study said.

In 2008 the government did not extend the term of the National Commission for Nanoscience and Technology, initially set up in 2003 for three years and later extended for two more years.

The study, published online on 29 March in Scientometrics, said research publications in the field had grown from seven in 2000 to an impressive 542 papers in 2011, registering a 29 per cent annual growth rate.

This is higher than the average annual growth rate of 23 per cent registered globally, said Rizwan Sarwar Bajwa, research associate at the Preston Institute of Nanoscience and Technology in Islamabad who, together with his colleague Khwaja Yaldram, had carried out the study.

Much of the contribution came from 13 universities while only two state-owned research and development institutions in the country participated in nanoscience and nanotechnology research.

The study attributed the spurt in research and publications to heavy government spending on manpower training and procuring the latest equipment for laboratories working in the field.

"Unfortunately, the present financial crunch faced by the country could have a negative impact on the progress achieved so far," the study concluded.

"The publication shows that despite availability of funding, the research and development institutes contributed very little in the field of nanoscience and nanotechnology," Bajwa, lead author of the study, told SciDev.Net.

Drug-resistant Bacteria – Designing Nanoparticles For High Antibiotic Doses

The scientists have been working towards this goal by developing a nanoparticle that invades the immune system, targeting the infection sites, and subsequently release a focused antibiotic attack.

According to leading author, Aleks Radovic-Moreno, who is an MIT graduate student, this strategy would lower the side effects of some antibiotics and protect the beneficial bacteria that commonly live in the human body.

The new nanoparticles were created from a polymer capped with polyethylene glycol (PEG), which is commonly used for drug delivery due to its nontoxic properties and because it can help to transport nanoparticles through the bloodstream without being detected by the immune system. The researchers then induced the particles to specifically target bacteria. Previous attempts to target particles to bacteria by giving them a positive charge that attracts them to bacteria's negatively charged cell walls have not been successful, given that the immune system tends to clear positively-charged nanoparticles from the body before they can encounter bacteria.

The team managed to overcome this hurdle by designing antibiotic-carrying nanoparticles, which can switch their charge depending on their environment, for instance, whilst circulating in the bloodstream, the particles' charge is slightly negative, yet on encountering an infection site, they gain a positive charge, which allows them to bind tightly to bacteria and release their drug payload.

The switch is invoked because of the slightly acidic environment surrounding bacteria. Infection sites can be slightly more acidic compared with normal body tissue, because the bacteria that cause disease reproduce rapidly and deplete oxygen. Insufficient oxygen levels, however, trigger a change in bacterial metabolism, which prompts them to generate organic acids. The body's immune cells try to assist - neutrophils cells start producing acids so as to to consume the bacteria.

The nanoparticles have a pH-sensitive layer that is made of long chains of the amino acid histidine just below the outer PEG layer. When the pH-level fall from 7 to 6, i.e. when it becomes more acidic, the polyhistidine molecule tends to gain protons that give the molecule a positive charge.

The nanoparticles start releasing their drug payload, which is embedded in the particle's core, once they bind to bacteria. The researchers designed the particles to deliver vancomycin, which is used to treat drug-resistant infections, However, it is possible to modify the particles to deliver other antibiotics or combinations of drugs. With increasing acidity, many antibiotics tend to lose their efficacy. However, the team discovered that antibiotics carried by nanoparticles retained their potency better than traditional antibiotics. The current version of nanoparticles discharges its drug payload over one to two days.

Nano science, focus of Education Ministry

by Ananda KANNANGARA

Education Minister Bandula Gunawardane has focused attention on expanding children's knowledge on nano science since educationists are of the view that nano technology-based industries will be set up in the country within the next 15 years.

According to the Education Ministry, nano science was to be introduced as a subject at the GCE Ordinary Level and Advanced Level examinations several years ago, but due to lack of trained teachers the proposal was put off.

A senior Science and Technology Ministry official said, nano technology is taught to children from their younger days in many developed and developing countries, as this technology will be increasingly used in science, medicine, motor mechanism and associated fields during the next few decades.

Minister Gunawardane told the Sunday Observer that it would take a few years to introduce the subject of nano technology to the school curriculum due to the non-availability of trained instructors.

Meanwhile, Dr. Prabath Hewageegana of the Department of Physics, University of Kelaniya has proposed that nano science be taught in schools so that students acquire a basic knowledge of the subject as they have acquired sound knowledge in the field of Information Technology.

He said strengthening nano science education in schools from now on is crucial for sustainable development in the field and Sri Lanka could easily develop a pool of professionals and a workforce to meet future needs.

He said State intervention is important in this regard and more research funds should also be made available to research institutions such as universities.

Penn State student Zachary Hostetler from Garnet Valley is being honored as a student marshal

Zachary Hostetler of Garnet Valley, Pennsylvania, is one of two students who will be honored as the student marshals for the Eberly College of Science during Penn State's spring commencement ceremonies on 5 May, 2012 at the University Park campus. Hostetler's faculty escort will be Song Tan, a professor in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.

Hostetler, who will graduate from Penn State with a 4.0 grade-point average and a bachelor's degree in biochemistry and molecular biology, also is enrolled in the Schreyer Honors College and he has been on the Dean's List every semester while at Penn State. Hostetler's awards and scholarships include a Schreyer Academic Excellence Scholarship, two Eberly College of Science academic scholarships--the Tershak Scholarship and the Vinezie Scholarship, a President's Freshman Award, a President Sparks Award, two Evan Pugh Scholar Awards, a University Undergraduate Research Funds award, and a Summer Discovery Grant.

During his years at Penn State, Hostetler has focused on laboratory research involving X-ray crystallography -- a method used to model the atomic structure of proteins. In particular, he and his faculty escort Song Tan, a professor of biochemistry and molecular biology, have been working on a research project dealing with improving protein crystallization, which is often one of the most difficult steps in X-ray crystallography. While certain proteins naturally form large, ordered crystals, some proteins resist crystallization attempts. Hostetler's approach involves fusing a "protein of interest" with a protein that is known to crystallize well so that this fusion protein will form crystals.

In addition to his scientific pursuits, Hostetler has served on the executive board of the Schreyer Honors College Student Council for several years. He also has represented the Schreyer Honors College Student Council and a Four Diamonds Family by dancing in Penn State's IFC/Panhellenic Dance Marathon -- an independent student-organized event that raises money to fight pediatric cancer.

In addition, Hostetler has volunteered as a Donor and Alumni Relations (DAR) captain for THON. As a DAR captain, his responsibilities included approaching companies for monetary donations, acting as a liaison to Penn State clubs and organizations to help them with fund-raising efforts, and establishing a system to track and analyze donation patterns. Hostetler also has volunteered for ATLAS, which is an organization devoted to raising money for THON and the Four Diamonds Fund. The Four Diamonds Fund is a Penn State Hershey organization that provides support for patients and families facing pediatric cancer.

After graduation, Hostetler plans to attend a combined M.D./Ph.D. program at either the University of Pennsylvania or Weill-Cornell Medical College in New York City. "I hope that attending a combined medical and graduate-degree program will allow me to combine my interests in human medicine and scientific research," Hostetler said. "Ultimately, I envision myself in academic medicine: conducting research, treating patients, and eventually teaching and training new physicians."

Hostetler also said he is truly honored to represent his Eberly College of Science colleagues at graduation. "This past year truly challenged the Penn State community." Hostetler said. "However, I believe it also was an opportunity for a troubled community to come together. Candlelight vigils and a record-breaking THON weekend marked the best of what Penn State has to offer. These memories, the ones that challenged us as a school and a community, will forever be a part of my Penn State experience."

Hostetler, who attended Garnet Valley High School, will be accompanied at graduation by his parents Robert and Lisa Hostetler, his sisters Lauren and Jenna Hostetler, and his grandfather John Hostetler.

Hostetler, who will graduate from Penn State with a 4.0 grade-point average and a bachelor's degree in biochemistry and molecular biology, also is enrolled in the Schreyer Honors College and he has been on the Dean's List every semester while at Penn State. Hostetler's awards and scholarships include a Schreyer Academic Excellence Scholarship, two Eberly College of Science academic scholarships--the Tershak Scholarship and the Vinezie Scholarship, a President's Freshman Award, a President Sparks Award, two Evan Pugh Scholar Awards, a University Undergraduate Research Funds award, and a Summer Discovery Grant.

Researchers' discovery offers hope for cancer, heart disease miracle drugs

OTTAWA A team of University of Ottawa researchers has solved the mystery of how our bodies adapt to low-oxygen environments, raising the prospect that life-threatening conditions such as cancer, stroke and heart disease could someday be successfully treated using a simple, antibiotic-like drug.

The teams findings were published Sunday in Nature, the worlds leading scientific journal.

Its a tremendously important discovery in understanding how life without oxygen works, said Dr. Stephen Lee, a professor in the universitys Department of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, whose laboratory did the groundbreaking research.

Scientists have known for decades that in the presence of oxygen, cells make proteins the building blocks of life using a process called protein synthesis. But how they do so in conditions of limited oxygen had remained a mystery.

Theres a huge amount of research, hundreds of thousands of papers, Lee said in an interview. But still nobody has discovered how we make the basic building blocks of life in these conditions. Thats what we discovered.

Lees team found theres an oxygen-regulated switch in the protein synthesis machinery, a very novel and unexpected way of synthesizing proteins, Lee said. Its very different.

The discovery explains, for the first time, how mountain climbers and highland Tibetans are able to adapt and function in environments that would kill or sicken most people.

These are very basic processes of life, Lee said. Its kind of strange that we discovered this in the 21st century. That tells you there are still basic processes that we just dont know exist.

The implications for cancer treatment, though still speculative, are potentially huge. Lees team discovered that cancer cells proliferate by using the same protein synthesis machinery the body employs to deal with low levels of oxygen.

Cancer cells utilize that way of producing proteins without oxygen, even if oxygen is present, Lee said. They hijack that system and that drives their proliferation.
