Ma Prem Hasya, or Françoise Ruddy or Hasya-Françoise Ruddy, (; 4 April 1937 – 19 August 2014) was a French-American follower of Rajneesh who served as his personal secretary (or chief of staff) after Ma Anand Sheela. She is featured in archive footage in the Netflix documentary series, "Wild Wild Country" about Rajneesh.
Françoise Wizenberg was born in Paris on April 4, 1937. She is the daughter of Icek/Izak (Yitzhak) Wizenberg, a Polish industrial worker who died in a World War II concentration camp, and Maria Wilczuk, also a Polish-born Jew. She survived the Holocaust under a false identity with a Christian family with whom her mother placed her. She was reunited with her mother, then living in France, at the age of 8. In the summer of 1948 she immigrated to Israel where she lived in an immigrant refugee camp in Netanya and then, according to sources, grew up in a kibbutz. In 1955, her mother grew anxious when Françoise was drafted into the Israeli Defense Forces. According to sources her mother told her “I didn’t save you from the Germans in order to lose you to the Arabs,” and this in turn led to the family's preparations to emigrate to North America. The family eventually settled in New York after a brief sojourn in Canada.
In 1956 she married Guilford Glazer, a Jewish multimillionaire from Knoxville, Tennessee and fifteen years her senior. The marriage ended after eight years and produced two children. She later married her second husband, Albert S. Ruddy, a Montreal-born Jewish movie producer who won an Oscar for producing "The Godfather". Françoise herself was involved in producing movies with "The New York Times" reporting in 1973 that she was producing an independent film adaptation of "Seduction of the Minotaur" by Anaïs Nin. The project was ultimately unrealized. Françoise and Albert later divorced.
She discovered the Rajneesh movement and Rajneesh's teachings during a trip to India. Hasya helped purchase the Oregon ranch that was developed into Rajneeshpuram. She later married Rajneesh's personal doctor, George Meredith. After the Rajneesh community left Oregon she traveled with Rajneesh on a worldwide “performance tour,” visiting Nepal, Uruguay, Crete and Portugal among other countries. Both eventually returned to Pune where she stayed until after the death of the Rajneesh. She returned to the United States in the same year, in 1990. She then lived between Los Angeles and Sedona, Arizona where she started a spiritual center called the Mystery School and was also involved in the establishment of an Osho center in Los Angeles.
She had Parkinson's disease for the seven years preceding her death on August 19 2014, at the home of her daughter, Erika Glazer. She is buried under the name of Francoise “Hasya” Ruddy in Hillside Memorial Park Cemetery, a Jewish cemetery in Los Angeles.

COSMIC functional size measurement is a method to measure a standard functional size of a piece of software. COSMIC is an acronym of COmmon Software Measurement International Consortium, a voluntary organization that has developed the method and is still expanding its use to more software domains.
The "Measurement Manual" defines the principles, rules and a process for measuring a standard functional size of a piece of software. Functional size is a measure of the amount of functionality provided by the software, completely independent of any technical or quality considerations. The generic principles of functional size are described in the ISO/IEC 14143 standard.<ref name="ISO/IEC 14143"></ref> This method is also an International Standard by itself. The COSMIC standard is the first "second generation" implementation of the ISO/IEC 14143 standard. There are also four first generation implementations:
These first generation functional size measurement methods consisted of rules that are based on empirical results. Part of the terminology that deals with users and requirements has overlap with similar terms in software engineering. They work well for the software domains the rules were designed for, but for other domains, the rules need to be altered or extended. Key elements of a second generation functional size measurement method are:
The method is based on principles rather than rules that are domain independent. The principles of the method are based on fundamental software engineering principles, which have been subsequently tested in practice.
The method may be used to size software that is dominated by functionality to maintain data, rather than software that predominantly manipulates data. As a consequence of measuring the size, the method can be used to establish benchmarks of (and subsequent estimates) regarding the effort, cost, quality and duration of software work.
The method can be used in a wide variety of domains, like business applications, real-time software, mobile apps, infrastructure software and operating systems. The method breaks down the Functional User Requirements of the software into combinations of the four data movements types:
The function point count provides measurement of software size, which is the sum of the data movements for a given functional requirement. It may be used to estimate (and benchmark) software project effort, cost, duration, quality and maintenance work.
The foundation of the method is the ISO/IEC 19761 standard, which contains the definitions and basic principles that are described in more detail in the COSMIC measurement manual.
Since the COSMIC method is based on generic principles, these principles can be applied in various domains. For a number of domains guidelines have been written to assist measurers to apply the COSMIC method in their domain :
To explain the use of the method a number of case studies have been developed. The method is of particular validity in the estimation of cost of software undertakings.
The COSMIC organization commenced its work in 1998. Legally COSMIC is an incorporated not for profit organization under Canadian law. The organization grew informally to a global community of professionals. COSMIC is an open and democratic organization. The organization relies and will continue to rely on unpaid efforts by volunteers, who work on various aspects of the method, based on their professional interest.

The GreenScreen List Translator is a procedure for assessing chemical hazard used to identify chemicals of concern to prioritize for removal from product formulations. The List Translator assesses substances based on their presence on lists of chemicals associated with human and environmental health hazards issued by a global set of governmental and professional scientific bodies, such as the European Union’s GHS hazard statements and California's Proposition 65.
The List Translator procedure is defined in the GreenScreen for Safer Chemicals, a transparent, open standard for chemical hazard assessment that supports alternatives assessment for toxics use reduction through identifying chemicals of concern and safer alternatives. The GreenScreen protocol is published in a Guidance document that is reviewed and updated regularly. This description of the List Translator is based upon the Hazard Assessment Guidance Version 1.4
The List Translator identifies the hazard endpoints for which a substance has been listed on each of a defined set of published hazard lists and the level of hazard. It prioritizes for avoidance those substances listed with a high hazard of any of the following endpoints:
This parallels the prioritization schemes underlying various international governmental regulatory programs such as the Substance of very high concern definition within the REACH Regulation of the European Union.
The central tools of the List Translator are the GreenScreen Specified Lists and the GreenScreen List Translator Map.
Scoring a substance is a three part procedure:
An LT-Unk, No GSLT or NoGS score is not an indication of low hazard or safety for a substance, only that the substance has not been listed for the priority health endpoints. A full GreenScreen Assessment must be undertaken to determine if the substance qualifies as an affirmatively safer substance.
Any person can use the GreenScreen List Translator protocol to score a substance. The research required to look up the substance in each of the hazard lists is, however, substantial. Several Licensed GreenScreen List Translator™ Automators aggregate the lists and provide free online lookup services for determining List Translator scores.
The GreenScreen List Translator is the first step in a GreenScreen Assessment. It is also used as a stand alone screening protocol by health and sustainability screening and certification programs. It is widely referenced in standards and certifications related to green building products, including the Health Product Declaration Standard (HPD), Portico, and the "Building product disclosure and optimization - material ingredients" credits in the US Green Building Council's LEED program.

TDBzcholine is a diazirine analog of acetylcholine that can be used to label the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor.
TDBzcholine is able to bind to the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. Once TDBzcholine is bound to the receptor, TDBzcholine can be activated by exposing the sample to UV light. This led to formation of a highly reactive carbene radical that can react with amino acid residues in the receptor and become covalently bound to the receptor.
Matt Curley is an American ice hockey coach and former player who is currently in charge of the program at Alaska Anchorage.
Curley began attending Clarkson University, 12 miles from his hometown in the fall of 2003. Curley was a member of the first recruiting class for new head coach George Roll. While the team finished a disappointing 9th place in the conference Clarkson surprised everyone with a Runner-Up finish in the ECAC tournament. After two middling seasons, Curley's senior year saw him named as an assistant captain for the team and the Golden Knights rocketed up the standings, finishing 2nd in the regular season but ending up as conference tournament champions. Clarkson received the #3 overall seed and was top ranked team in the East Regional bracket but in the opening game they drew Massachusetts and were unable to beat future NHL star Jonathan Quick once in over 67 minutes of playing time.
After graduating with a degree in history/law and business administration Curley spent the next season with three separate teams in two leagues. In 2008-09 he moved up to the AHL and spent the whole season with the Reading Royals. After recording 7 points in 64 games Curley had had his fix of professional hockey and retired.
Curley returned to the game in 2011 as an assistant coach for the US Under-18 team at the world junior championships and helped the program win its third consecutive title. The following year Curley was with the US Under-17 squad as an assistant at the 2012 World U-17 Hockey Challenge and helped the team to a Runner-Up finish.
The Indiana Ice named Curley as an associate head coach in 2012, but he continued to word with the US national junior team, acting as an assistant for the 2013 IIHF World U18 Championships that saw the US finish second behind the Connor McDavid-led Canada team. Curley's tenure in Indiana ended after one season when he accepted an assistant coaching post with Bentley and after a one year hiatus he returned to the national program and helped team USA to its ninth tournament crown in 2015.
Curley headed overseas in 2015 to coach the RB Hockey Juniors, the junior affiliate for EC Red Bull Salzburg. After a year they promoted him to head coach for EC Red Bull Salzburg II, the team's minor affiliate in the newly created AlpsHL. After missing the playoffs the first year Curley led his team into the quarterfinals in 2018 but was on the move once more when he accepted the head coaching gig at Alaska Anchorage.
