Biosimilar

Template:Afc a


Cloning of human genetic material and development of in vitro biological production systems has allowed the production of virtually any recombinant DNA based biological substance for eventual development of a drug. Monoclonal antibody technology combined with recombinant DNA technology has paved the way for tailor-made and targeted medicines. Gene- and cell-based therapies are emerging as new approaches.

Recombinant therapeutic proteins are of a complex nature ( composed of a long chain of amino acids, modified amino acids, derivatized by sugar moieties, folded by complex mechanisms). These proteins are made in living cells ( bacteria, yeast, animal or human cell lines). The ultimate characteristics of a drug containing a recombinant therapeutic protein are to a large part determined by the process through which they are produced: choice of the cell type, development of the genetically modified cell for production, production process, purification process, formulation of the therapeutic protein into a drug, ….

Since the expiry of the patent of the first approved recombinant drugs (e.g. insulin, human growth hormone, interferons, erythropoietin, … ) ‘copying’ and marketing of these biologics (thus called biosimilars) can be offered by any other biotech company.

However, because no two cell lines, developed independently, can be considered identical, biotech medicines cannot be fully copied. This is recognised by the European Medicines Agency, EMEA, and has resulted in the establishment of the term “biosimilar” in recognition of the fact that, whilst biosimilar products are similar to the original product, they are not exactly the same (1). Small distinctions in the cell line, the manufacturing process or the surrounding environment can make a major difference in side effects observed during treatment, i.e. two similar biologics can trigger very different immunogenic response. Therefore, and unlike chemical pharmaceuticals, substitution between biologics, including biosimilars, can have clinical consequences and does create putative health concerns.

Biosimilars are subject to an approval process (2,3) which requires substantial additional data to that required for chemical generics, although not as comprehensive as for the original biotech medicine. However, the safe application of biologics is also dependent on an informed and appropriate use by healthcare professionals and patients. Introduction of biosimilars also requires a specifically designed pharmacovigilance plan.

Currently ( August 2007), ambiguities concerning naming, regional differences in prescribing practices, regional differences in legally defined rules with respect to substitution are important points that still need to be resolved to ensure a safe use of biosimilars.

Lee Otis Johnson

Template:Afc r


Lee Otis Johnson (1939 - June 12, 2002) was chairperson of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) at Texas Southern University and a member of the Black Panther Party in Houston, Texas during the 1960s. Believed by many to have been targeted for his activism and growing popularity, in 1968 Johnson was given a thirty year prison sentence for allegedly passing one marijuana cigarette to an undercover police officer. This was an even more egregious drug sentence than the one given to White Panther John Sinclair, who received a ten year sentence for possessing two marijuana "joints."

While Johnson's conviction and sentence fit within the Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FBI's) tactic of targeting and "neutralizing" Panther leaders and activists, under the auspices of its now infamous "COINTELPRO" operation, Johnson's case did not generate the same publicity or international outrage as the Sinclair case, although his plight was well known to the university community in Texas. In fact when students at the University of Houston disrupted then-governor Preston Smith's speech with chants of "Free Lee Otis," he thought they were chanting "frijoles" and even asked a reporter why the students were opposed to beans.

Although Johnson was released after serving four years, when a federal judge ruled that his trial should have been held in a different venue than Houston, many believe his time in prison destroyed his spirit, and caused him to descend into drug addiction and petty crime.

Refusing to have his legs amputated in a last ditch effort to save his life, Lee Otis Johnson died of circulatory problems at the age of 62.

FloodSmart

Template:Afc r


FloodSmart is a Victoria State Emergency Service community eeducation programme aimed at preparing 'at risk' communities for flood and storm events.

Currently FloodSmart is being piloted in the Rural City of Benalla with some elements being validated in the Gippsland Areas of Victoria.

The education programme aims to provide residents, communities and school groups with a suite of practical tools to use;

1. in understanding flood risk within specific local areas, and 2. to prepare for flooding 3. to minimise the impact floods have on the community.

These tools are delivered through a variety of methods including static education process such as letter box drops, distribution kiosks and mail outs. HOwever, the most notable feature of the programme is the dynamic engagement aspects with local emergency service volunteers engaging on a one on one basis with community members through local community BBQ's, market days and door knocks. A similar StormSmart programme exists for storm risk in VIctoria.

Walter Noll

Template:Afc r


The main parts of the text bellow are selected from the lecture given by Clifford Truesdell, titled: THE NATURALIZATION AND APOTHEOSIS OF WALTER NOLL, in April 1993 at the meeting of the Society for Natural Philisophy on the occasion of Walter Noll's retirement from teaching.

The oldest kind of mechanics is continuum mechanics. Brilliant achievements in it were made by Archimedes, Stevin, Newton, and others. Theses were, for the most part, solutions of rather restricted, special problems. In the late 1940s new kinds of continuum mechanics began to be envisioned and explored, different in spirit from the older kinds. One of the extraordinary figures and most brilliant mathematicians whose works had a very large influence on modern continuum mechanics is Walter Noll.

Walter Noll's early life Walter Noll was born on January 7, 1925 in Berlin-Biesdorf, a district in the North-East of Berlin. His parents, Franz Noll and Martha Noll née Janssen, had lived in Berlin since about 1915. Both parents had eight years of elementary education. In 1931 Walter entered the elementary school in Biesdorf and in 1935 he entered a secondary school near Zeuthen. In the fourth year of high school, his teacher of physics, Hohensee was the first person to show Walter a true understanding of physics and mathematics. Walter dedicated his Bloomington doctoral thesis (1954) to Hohensee.

When the World war Two began in 39, Walter was 14 years old. The best teachers were drafted into the armed forces. He studied, one way and another, by himself. On March 23, 1943, he obtained his abitur (English translation: get out), with the designation "gut". In this period many of Walter's classmates were killed. In June of 1943 Walter was drafted for basic military service. A minor injury led to an infection which kept him in a hospital for a long period, and then his papers were misfiled and he was left at home for six months, during which he attended classes at the University of Berlin. Finally he was enlisted into the air force signal corps, but he contracted diphtheria in the late autumn of 1944 and spent six weeks in isolation. On May 1 he was taken prisoner of war by a British soldier in Lubeck, and he was released on July. There was chaos in Germany at the time. Walter did farm work and later factory work. On March 12, 1946, he returned to Berlin as a student at the Technical University. Life in Berlin was very hard for the next two years. Walter froze during the winters, and he and his family starved all the time. He found it difficult to study because his mind was always on food. At one period he participated in a discussion group meeting every two weeks in the residence of Herman B. Wells, the president of Indiana University and adviser for education in Germany. After the meetings the students were invited to stay for sandwiches, coffee, and cake. It was difficult -- he says -- for us starving students to behave in a civilized manner and not fight over the food like a pack of wolves!

Noll in the German and French Universities Walter chose the Technical University because the Humboldt University was not to open until the following semester. Nonetheless, it was possible for a student to make mathematics his main subject in the Technical University, but there it was necessary to follow four semesters of engineering mechanics. Liese Hohensee, who at the time was an assistant, introduced Walter to Istvan Szabo. Szabo recognized that Walter was a very good student and arranged for him to be a teaching assistant. Walter followed courses also at the Humboldt University and the Free University. While in the Spring and Summer of 1949 Walter continued his studies in Berlin, in October he entered upon a fellowship from the French Government which paid for tuition and room and board in Paris. He learned a lot of mathematics there, especially through participation in seminars and by independent reading. He took part in a seminar at the Ecole Normale Superieure on “Fonctions analytiques de plusieures variables”, conducted by Henri Cartan with participants Jean-Pierre Serre and Armand Borel. Paris brought to Walter his first contact with the work of N. Bourbaki. He saved enough money to buy all the volumes of the Elements de Mathematiques yet published; later he studied some of the volumes systematically. In the spring and Summer of 1950 Walter acquired “Certificats d’Etudes Superieures” through three examinations at the Sorbonne. The crucial part of such an examination was the written portion, which took seven hours, all in one day. Only fifty-nine of the 296 passed the examination in “Calcul differential et integral”; of the forty-nine, only four received the grade “tres bien” and another four, “bien”, which was given to Walter. Through the examination Walter acquired the degree of “licencie es sciences”. Returning to Berlin in August of 1950, Walter continued his studies and prepared for the doctorate. On May 5 he acquired the degree of “Diplom- Ingenieur” with the mark “Ausgezeichnet”. Despite the title, it was a degree in mathematics. The topic was “reproducing kernels, with applications to the theory of analytic functions”. Walter has always claimed that his study of pure mathematics before applications has helped him more than anything else. A selection from Noll’s introduction to his German thesis runs as follows: "In the past hundred years mathematics went the way of more and more specialization and subdivision. Recently, however, a tendency for methodical unification has emerged. It has been realized that only a few fundamental structures are the basis of mathematics. The discovery of these structures leads to a deeper insight and above all to simplification. This development is necessary, for how else could the accumulating profusion of mathematical knowledge be preserved and transmitted?" Szabo had meanwhile become senior professor of mechanics, and he gave Walter a two-year contract, renewable for two more, a regular civil service position. His principal duty was to write scientific books by Szabo. Walter put considerable effort into revision of “Hütte”, a handbook for engineers, and a major part of another of Szabo’s books. Walter states, "Had I been in the United States, I surely would have been named co-author of these books. On the other hand, Szabo gave me more autonomy than his other assistants, who had much more involvement than I with the unpleasant task of conducting exercise sessions for engineering mechanics courses." Walter confesses that in this period he spent too much time playing GO!

Noll in Bloomington Walter Noll went to Bloomington, Indiana University, on September 19, 1953. The walk-in should have thundered; perhaps it did, but silently. Walter Noll chose Clifford Truesdell as his advisor. Truesdell suggested that Walter might calculate solutions in a theory called hypo-elasticity, which he had recently invented, or establish asymptotic expansions for solutions in his booklet call An Essay Toward a Unified Theory of Special Functions. Good student that he was, Walter followed neither suggestion.

Noll’s thesis is Bloomington Walter completed his work for the doctorate in less than ten months. For his thesis Noll selected a topic generalizing certain ideas of Maxwell and Zaremba: the class of constitutive relations stress rate = f (velocity gradient, stress, density). His title was On the Continuity of the Solid and Fluid States. It includes some isotropic elastic bodies, viscous fluids, and other special instances. Truesdell did not work on it except to bring to Walter’s attention the paper of S. Zaremba, “Sur une conception nouvelle dans un fluide en mouvement” (1937); Zaremba had published the basic ideas in 1903. Various other persons made three-dimensional extensions of Maxwell's idea, but they were not invariant under changes of frame. Walter saw the need for this invariance, which he called "The principle of isotropy of space". Later he was to call it "the principle of objectivity" and finally "the principle of material frame-indifference". As it is emphasized by Walter Noll, principle of material objectivity is an obsolete term and should be replaced by "Principle of Material Frame-Indifference". Noll says that "I was responsible for introducing the obsolete term in 1958 and now regret that I misled a lot of people". Here is a precise statement of the principle by Noll: "The constitutive laws governing the internal interactions between the parts of a physical system should not depend on whatever external frame of reference is used to describe them". (See parts [1] and [2] of "Five Contributions to Natural Philosophy", available on the website www.math.cmu.edu/~wn0g/noll). Furthermore, he quotes "A frame of reference is very different from a coordinate system. Contrary of some people's opinion, the principle has nothing to do with coordinate systems". In one the best books written in the deformation of continuous media, i.e. Non-linear Field Theories of Mechanics, (by Clifford Truesdell and Walter Noll, 1965), there is a brief history of the two forms of the principle: the Hooke-Poisson-Cauchy form and the Zaremba-Jaumann form, the former being the one employed by Noll in his thesis. Among the innovations Walter introduced ion his thesis is the following theorem: A resilient material is hypo-elastic if and only if, for a given initial stress, the stress at a final state depends only on the paths by which the material points reach the final state and not upon the rate at which they traverse these paths. His thesis was published the next year in Volume 4 of the Journal of Rational Mechanics and Analysis.

In 1955, Walter wrote a major paper on statistical mechanics: Die Herleitung der Grundgleichungen der Thermomechanik der Kontinua aus der statistischen Mechanik, Journal of Rational Mechanics and Analysis 4, 627-646 (1955). That paper unscrambles one which Irving & Kirkwood had published in 1950. Kirkwood meanwhile had died, and Irving, who had been a fellow student of mine from Caltech, had gone off into some sort of secret work. The paper by Irving & Kirkwood was full of delta functions, infinite series, and other gobbledygook dear to hearts of physicists and quite useless for the purpose at hand. The argument is set in phase-space. Walter was able to replace the original argument by a simpler one, to obtain the stress tensor and the energy flux by explicit integration, to show that the external forces need not have a potential and may depend upon the speeds of the particles, which need not be alike. The counterparts of the fields of continuum mechanics were obtained, and so were the differential equations they satisfy. In that sense, many aspects of continuum mechanics were derived rigorously from a very general kind of statistical mechanics. It must not be forgotten, nevertheless, that the general fields of continuum mechanics themselves are not unique, and so that quantities derived from them by statistical mechanics cannot be unique either.

Walter’s later work The next year Walter accepted an offer from the Carnegie Institute of Technology. I am told that Leighton, the head of the department then, began his letter to Walter with the words “You have been nominated by Professors Truesdell and Gilbarg for appointment in our department". In 1957 Walter wrote a long report with the title On the Foundation of the Mechanics of Continuous Media. In it appear for the first time the terms principle of objectivity, principle of determinism for the stresses, and simple material, but much more than that, it is an attempt to create a mathematical-conceptual framework for general mechanics. Three-dimensional continuum mechanics is the expressed setting, but point masses and other kinds of continuum mechanics are implicit for development. When it was new, this report was read by many students of continuum mechanics. It opened a new prospect on Mechanics and its branches through its compact and condensed style and its efficient, brief treatment and complete solutions of examples. This report was never published. Over the following years various papers based directly or indirectly upon it, culminating in various unexpected new ideas. The only part of the report not taken up and developed later was the theory of Maxwellian fluids, which offers some difficulties.

The most influential, early published paper of Walter’s was A Mathematical Theory of the Mechanical Behavior of Continuous Media, Archive for Rational Mechanics and Analysis, Volume 2, 197-226 (1958). That paper, and the following ones jointly with Bernard Coleman. There are two others from the same period which deserve more notice than they have received. First, The Foundations of Classical Mechanics in the Light of Recent Advances in Continuum Mechanics, presented at a symposium in 1957 but not published until 1959. The paper begins by answering the question that Clifford Truesdell had put to Walter in his qualifying examination: "It is a widespread belief even today that classical mechanics is a dead subject, that its foundations were made clear long ago, and that all that remains to be done is to solve special problems. This is not so. It is true that the mechanics of systems of a finite number of mass points has been on a sufficiently rigorous basis since Newton’s day. Many textbooks on theoretical mechanics dismiss continuous bodies with the remark that they can be regarded as the limiting case of a particle system with an increasing number of particles. They cannot. The erroneous belief that they can had the unfortunate effect that no serious attempt was made for a long period to put classical continuum mechanics on a rigorous axiomatic basis. Only the recent advances in the theory of materials other than perfect fluids and linearly elastic solids have revived the interest in the foundations of classical mechanics. A clarification of these foundations is of importance also for the following reason. It is known that continuous matter is really made up of elementary particles. The basis laws governing the elementary particles are those of quantum mechanics. The science that provides the link between these basic laws and the laws describing the behavior of gross matter is statistical mechanics. At the present time this link is quite weak, partly because the mathematical difficulties are formidable, and partly because the basic laws themselves are not yet completely clear. A rigorous theory of continuum mechanics would give at least some precise information on what kind of gross behavior the basic laws ought to predict. I want to give here a brief outline of an axiomatic scheme for continuum mechanics, and I shall attempt to introduce the same level of rigor and clarity as is now customary in pure mathematics." Walter then defines a system of body forces and a system of contact forces. Proved theorems follow:

Theorem I. There is a vector-valued function S, defined for all oriented surfaces c in a body, such that Cp (c) = S(c) whenever c is a piece of the boundary. Definition. A system of forces for a body is a family of vector-valued measures FB such that, for each part of the body B, FB is defined on the subsets of B and have decompositions FB = BB + CB and (BB ) is a system of body forces and (CB ) a system of contact forces.

Theorem II. For any two separate parts P and Q of a body, FP,Q (P) = - FQ,P (Q) i.e. the resultant mutual force exerted on P by Q is equal and opposite to the resultant mutual force exerted on Q by P.

Theorem III. The contact force acting across c is opposite to the contact force acting across -c. Thus the “reaction principle” becomes a proved theorem.

Further development delivers the stress principle. The invariance of constitutive relations under change of frame, here attributed to Oldroyd, is reasserted and clarified.

Finally, here is another important paper, read in 1959 but not published until 1963: La Mecanique Classique, Basee sur un Axiome d'Objectivite. This paper introduces a general system of forces. The fundamental axiom: for every body the working is frame-indifferent. The resultant force on every body is null, and so is the resultant torque. The two conclusions are necessary and sufficient for the truth of the fundamental axiom. (The laws of inertia are absorbed in this statement.) For the first time, forces in general are brought out as elements of a system. For each body, the function FB is assumed to be a vector-valued measure. Particular classes of bodies require particular treatments. The assumption holds trivially for the analytical dynamics of mass-points; in contrast, for the usual kinds of three-dimensional continuum mechanics requires a good deal of analysis.

Only recently has a natural axiom been found: Noll's Axiom on Forces in Continuum Mechanics, in: A FIRST COURSE IN RATIONAL CONTINUUM MECHANICS, Second Edition, by Clifford Truesdell, 1991) The treatment of this axiom began with Noll; Gurtin and Williams did much to develop it; and, finally, an essential, completing definition was given recently by Noll & Virga. In Truesdell's opinion the most important of all the discoveries about the foundations of mechanics is the theory of systems of forces. All the nonsense of traditional mechanics is swept away; the hard matter remains through mathematical arguments. The Principia has been famous from the start for its failure to tell the reader what Newton means by a force. The stupidest and commonest explanation even today is “a force is a push or a pull in a given direction.” Famous philosophers have written pages and books in attempts to provide acceptable explanation of force. Mathematicians have turned their backs on clarity by introducing Lagrangians and Hamiltonians and variational principles so as to evade the true notion of force. Walter’s definition replaces those evasions by a mathematical structure something like a Boolean algebra.

Clifford Truesdell in sanctification of Walter Noll says: "In the records of the Roman church I find no saint already christened Walter or Gualtiero. We shall have to expect that Walter will not be elevated to tread pavements of gold but rather to Valhalla, where he will be served by buxom Valkure, proferring foaming beakers of mature mead. Even so, he will not be satisfied. If another warrior in Valhall should praise one of Walter’s achievements, he will cry, but I don’t do it that way any more!" Moton Gurtin, on his speech for receiving the Timoshenko Medal (2004) says: "One of the main things I learned during this period is the importance of concepts, of ideas. There are many levels of understanding: a theory generally has a few major ideas that form its backbone, and these are usually discovered first, but the real understanding lies in the interconnections that arise when layer after layer of extraneous material is removed. I learned most of this from Walter Noll, who is the deepest mathematician I have known."

San Francisco Shakespeare Festival

Template:Afc r


The San Francisco Shakespeare Festival1 is a non-profit organization that began in 1983, with Free Shakespeare in the Park's debut production of "The Tempest" in Golden Gate Park in San Francisco, California. Today it is a regional theater company and major arts-education provider that includes two sister organizations, the Oakland-East Bay Shakespeare Festival and the Silicon Valley Shakespeare Festival. The Festival is also a member of the Shakespeare Theatre Association of America2.


An Overview of Shakespeare Festival Programs:

Free Shakespeare in the Park (http://www.sfshakes.org/park/index.html)

Produced every year throughout the San Francisco Bay Area in cities such as San Francisco, Oakland, Pleasanton, California, San Mateo, California, and Cupertino from July to October, FSP provides an opportunity for over 50,000 people to see high quality, professional theater free of charge.


Shakespeare On Tour (http://www.sfshakes.org/tour/index.html)

Shakespeare on Tour brings a live hour-long Shakespeare performance to students statewide. In response to the decline of in-school arts programs, Shakespeare on Tour was created as an affordable high-quality school touring program in 1988. SOT now presents approximately 300 performances yearly to over 120,000 children.


The Bay Area Shakespeare Camps (http://www.sfshakes.org/camp/index.html)

Bay Area Shakespeare Camps provide an opportunity for young students age 7 to 18 to study Shakespeare in a fun, supportive atmosphere and teach them the necessary skills to perform the author's work. BASC also offers an Advanced Acting Workshop for those with prior experience in performance. Currently, over 26 camp sessions are scheduled to be held in multiple San Francisco Bay Area communities.


Midnight Shakespeare (http://www.sfshakes.org/midnight/index.html)

Midnight Shakespeare offers at-risk youth the opportunity to learn communication skills, performance skills, discipline, and team work through Shakespeare. Responding to the problems of violence and gang-related issues, this ten-week program partners the Shakespeare Festival with social service organizations like the East Bay Conservation Corps, San Jose Department of Parks and Recreation, the East Palo Alto Boys and Girls Club, and the San Francisco Parks and Recreation Department to reach underserved communities throughout the San Francisco Bay Area.

Template:Afc r


St. Joseph Church in Santa Ana, California, was founded in 1887. Originally called Our Lady of the Rosary, it received the nickname upon its inception as "the Church by the depot" for its proximity to the local Santa Fe line. In 1897, after the first church building was destroyed in a fire that was suspected to a work of arson by anti-Catholic agents, it was renamed St. Joseph Church in recognition of its two founding members, Joseph Yoch and Joseph Young.
