FARGO (KFGO-AM) - Christopher Hampton, 24, has been arrested and charged with murder. He's accused of shooting his roommate Thursday night at their apartment in the 100 block of 7th Avenue north in Fargo. The name of the male victim, 28, has not been released.
Neighbors saw Hampton outside the duplux, very agitated and talking on a phone as police arrived on scene. Sargent Carlos Nestler says that's where Hampton was found and detained for questioning. A gun believed to have been used was recovered at the scene.
Officers who responded to the disturbance found the victim, wounded by at least one gunshot. Police attempted CPR at the scene and the victim was taken to Sanford Medical Center where he died.

Fire chief asks for clear paths to properties
Date: October 24, 2012
by: Robin Hartill | City Editor
If you live in Windward Bay or a high-rise along Club Longboat Road and dialed 911 in the past week, you might have gotten a slower-than-usual response time.
The reason?
Pavement projects blocked access points that firefighter/paramedics use in emergencies, but because permits weren't required for the projects, first responders weren't notified that they were under way.
Instead, they found out about the project while responding to medical calls in both communities.
"There were a couple of calls at Windward Bay during which we could not gain access to the south end of buildings and we had to park in the main roads," said Longboat Key Fire Rescue Chief Paul Dezzi, who told firefighters that they would need to go through bushes to access Windward Bay in the event of a fire.
In another call, firefighters entered Club Longboat Road at its north entrance, then had to turn around, go further south on Gulf of Mexico Drive and access the road at the south entrance.
Each response was most likely delayed by three to five minutes, Dezzi said.
Firefighters counted seven similar projects just last week, including the Windward Bay and Club Longboat Road projects.
To avoid delays in emergency response times, Dezzi is asking properties to contact the fire department before making repairs to property entrances and asphalt.
With notification, firefighters can drive through the area and determine how they would access it in an emergency. The department can work with contractors to ensure that they aren't blocking access.
Longboat Key Police Chief Pete Cumming said that although he was concerned that police vehicles could have trouble getting into properties during recent projects, access hasn't been an issue.
Still, he urged properties to contact the police department as well as the fire department before beginning projects that could impact road access.
"I think it's just a matter of common sense to notify us if a road is going to be blocked," Cumming said.
Contact the fire department at 316-1944 and the police department at 316-1977.
Auto alerts
The Longboat Key Police Department will soon begin leaving "auto alerts" on vehicles in parking lots to remind motorists to lock vehicle doors and remove valuables.
According to Police Chief Pete Cumming, officers will walk through public parking lots looking for anything visible that could make the vehicle a target: a door that is clearly unlocked, an open window or valuables that are located in plain sight.
Officers will then leave an alert with boxes checked for whether the vehicle is locked or unlocked and a list of any visible items that should be removed from the vehicle.

text: contentLE Magazine January 2001 CarnosineNature's pluripotent life extension agent by: Karin Granstrom Jordan, M.D. Page 1 of 5 A substance that protects and extends the functional life of the body's key building blocks—cells, proteins, DNA, lipids—can be fairly called an agent of longevity. When that agent is safe, naturally present in the body and in food, and has demonstrated prolongation of life span in animals and cultured human cells, it is fundamental to any life extension program. Mounting research suggests that carnosine has just such anti-aging potential. Carnosine is a multifunctional dipeptide made up of a chemical combination of the amino acids beta-alanine and l-histidine. Long-lived cells such as nerve cells (neurons) and muscle cells (myocytes) contain high levels of carnosine. Muscle levels of carnosine correlate with the maximum life spans of animal species (Hipkiss AR et al., 1995).Laboratory research on cellular senescence (the end of the life cycle of dividing cells) suggests that these facts may not be coincidences. Carnosine has the remarkable ability to rejuvenate cells approaching senescence, restoring normal appearance and extending cellular life span.How does carnosine rejuvenate cells? We do not yet know the full answer, but carnosine's properties may point up key mechanisms of tissue and cell aging, as well as the anti-aging measures that counteract them.Carnosine addresses the biochemical paradox of life: the elements that make and give life—oxygen, glucose, lipids, protein, trace metals—also destroy life in ways that are inhibited by carnosine. Carnosine protects against their destructive sides through potent antioxidant, anti-glycating, aldehyde quenching and metal chelating actions (Quinn PJ et al., 1992; Hipkiss AR, Preston JE et al., 1998). A prime beneficiary is the body's biggest target—its proteins.The body is made up largely of proteins. Unfortunately, proteins tend to undergo destructive changes as we age, due largely to oxidation and interactions with sugars or aldehydes. These interrelated protein modifications include oxidation, carbonylation, cross-linking, glycation and advanced glycation endproduct (AGE) formation. They figure prominently not only in the processes of aging but also in its familiar signs such as skin aging, cataracts and neurodegeneration. Studies show that carnosine is effective against all these forms of protein modification.As an antioxidant, carnosine potently quenches that most destructive of free radicals, the hydroxyl radical, as well as superoxide, singlet oxygen and the peroxyl radical. Surprisingly, carnosine was the only antioxidant to significantly protect chromosomes from oxidative damage due to 90% oxygen exposure.Carnosine's ability to rejuvenate connective tissue cells may explain its beneficial effects on wound healing. In addition, skin aging is bound up with protein modification. Damaged proteins accumulate and cross-link in the skin, causing wrinkles and loss of elasticity. In the lens of the eye, protein cross-linking is part of cataract formation. Carnosine eye drops have been shown to delay vision senescence in humans, being effective in 100% of cases of primary senile cataract and 80% of cases of mature senile cataract (Wang AM et al., 2000).Carnosine levels decline with age. Muscle levels decline 63% from age 10 to age 70, which may account for the normal age-related decline in muscle mass and function (Stuerenberg HJ et al., 1999). Since carnosine acts as a pH buffer, it can keep on protecting muscle cell membranes from oxidation under the acidic conditions of muscular exertion. Carnosine enables the heart muscle to contract more efficiently through enhancement of calcium response in heart myocytes (Zaloga GP et al., 1997). The body is made up largely of proteins. Unfortunately, proteins tend to undergo destructive changes as we age, due largely to oxidation and interactions with sugars or aldehydes. The high levels of carnosine in the brain may serve as natural protection against excitotoxicity, copper and zinc toxicity, protein cross-linking and glycation, and especially oxidation of cell membranes. Animal studies show broad protective effects in simulated stroke.New research shows that copper and zinc dramatically stimulate senile plaque formation in Alzheimer's disease. Chelators of these metals dissolve plaques in the laboratory. Carnosine can also inhibit the cross-linking of amyloid-beta that leads to plaque formation. A signature of Alzheimer's disease is impairment of brain microvasculature. Carnosine protected the cells that line brain blood vessels (endothelial cells) from damage by amyloid-beta (senile plaque material) as well as by products of lipid oxidation and alcohol metabolism in laboratory experiments.Now that many are cutting down on meat—the main dietary source of carnosine—supplementation becomes especially important. Carnosine is safe, with no toxicity even at dosages above 500 mg per kilogram of body weight in animal studies (Quinn PJ et al., 1992). It is most fortunate that carnosine is safe at high dosages because the body would neutralize lesser amounts of carnosine. The enzyme carnosinase (Quinn PJ et al., 1992) must be saturated with more carnosine than it is able to neutralize in order to make free carnosine available to the rest of the body.There are thought to be many mechanisms responsible for aging. Consequently, an agent must work along many basic pathways of the aging process in order to control it. Scientists have described carnosine as "pluripotent"—active in a multitude of ways, in many tissues and organs (Hipkiss AR, Preston JE et al., 1998). Carnosine's pluripotent life extension potential places it on a par with CoQ10 as a cornerstone of longevity nutrition.Biological rejuvenationIt is well known that cells have only a limited capacity to continue to divide through the course of life. For example, human fetal fibroblasts (connective tissue cells) divide no more than about 60 to 80 times in laboratory cultures. By young adulthood, fibroblasts have 30 to 40 divisions left, while in old age no more than 10 to 20 remain.The limited capacity of the cell to perpetuate itself through division is called the Hayflick Limit, after the scientist who discovered it nearly four decades ago (Hayflick L et al., 1961; Hayflick L, 1965). In concert with telomeres, which count off the rounds of cell division, the Hayflick Limit caps life span at the cellular level. With each division a cell becomes less likely to divide again, until finally it stops dividing altogether and becomes senescent.As cultured cells approach the Hayflick Limit they divide less frequently and take on strikingly irregular forms. They no longer line up in parallel arrays, assume a granular appearance, and deviate from their normal size and shape (McFarland GA et al., 1994). This distorted appearance, called the senescent phenotype, normally ushers in a twilight state called cellular senescence that until recently was thought to be irreversible (see the article "Carnosine and Cellular Senescence" in this issue).Extending cell life spanIn a remarkable series of experiments, scientists at an Australian research institute have shown that carnosine rejuvenates cells as they approach senescence (McFarland GA, 1999; McFarland GA, 1994). The scientists cultured human fibroblasts (connective tissue cells) from the lung and the foreskin. Fibroblasts that went through many rounds of division, known as late-passage cells, displayed a disorganized, irregular appearance before ceasing to divide. Fibroblasts cultured with carnosine lived longer, retaining youthful appearance and growth patterns.What is most exciting is the ability of carnosine to reverse the signs of aging in cells approaching senescence. When the scientists transferred late-passage fibroblasts to a culture medium containing carnosine, they exhibited a rejuvenated appearance and often an enhanced capacity to divide. They again grew in the characteristic whorled growth patterns of young fibroblasts, and resumed a uniform appearance. But when they transferred the fibroblasts back to a medium lacking carnosine, the signs of senescence quickly reappeared.The scientists switched late-passage fibroblasts back and forth several times between the culture media. They consistently observed that the carnosine culture medium restored the juvenile cell phenotype within days, whereas the standard culture medium brought back the senescent cell phenotype.The carnosine medium also increased life span, even for old cells. The number of PDs, or population doublings, provides a convenient measure of cell division. When late-passage lung fibroblasts at 55 PDs (population doublings) were transferred to the carnosine medium, they lived to 69 to 70 PDs, compared to 57 to 61 PDs for the fibroblasts that were not transferred. Moreover, the fibroblasts transferred to the carnosine medium attained a life span of 413 days, compared to 126 to 139 days for the control fibroblasts. Carnosine increased chronological life span more dramatically than PDs in the Australian series of experiments.When cells in the carnosine medium eventually enter into cellular senescence, they nevertheless retain a normal or less senescent morphology. Carnosine's ability to retain or restore the juvenile phenotype suggests that it may help maintain cellular homeostasis. Continued on Page 2References on Page 5 Back to the Magazine Forum

The Roaring Twenties was alternatively known as The Jazz Age. Following World War I, about 500,000 African Americans in search of better employment opportunities moved to the northern part of the United States. With them, they brought their culture and in New York, the start of the Harlem Renaissance. During this period of time, the works of African Americans in fields such as writing and music escalated. Styles of music including Dixieland, blues and smooth jazz became prevalent through the genius of Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Bessie Smith, Benny Goodman and George Gershwin.
The writers of the 1920's were diverse and determined to expose the many prejudices, pretenses, and political corruption of the times. Writers of the Harlem Renaissance celebrated racial pride. The novels of Zora Neal Hurston, poetry of Countee Cullen and poetry, plays, essays and novels of Langston Hughes gave Negroes a voice capturing their folklore, promoting equality, condemning racism and injustice, and celebrating African American culture, humor, and spirituality.
It was the age of the "lost generation," those authors in Woody Allen's film Midnight in Paris who expressed their disillusionment with American society through their novels Ernest Hemingway, Gertrude Stein and the one of the most famous chronicler of 1920s, F Scott Fitzgerald with Great Gatsby. Other social critics and satirists of the age include Sinclair Lewis, Dorothy Parker, James Thurber, Sherwood Anderson, and T.S. Eliot. Many of whom wrote for the New Yorker which was founded by Harold Ross in 1925.
You can also get feel the glitter and chic of the times by reading mysteries by Agatha Christie, Dorothy Sayers, Dashiell Hammett, Raymond Chandler, Ngaio Marsh and Josephine Tey.
So now it's time to settle in with a cup of Earl Grey, a copy of Moveable Feast, Rhapsody in Blue playing in the background and you are there.

The Theme for October's Outside the Book is "Monsters Among Us." When there are displays of spookiness all around, it is thrilling to contemplate the illusion that supernatural creatures roam the sidewalks and freeways of brightly-lit 20th century civilization. Or chilling to acknowledge the reality that human monsters actually do.
If you are looking for novels about spooky creatures alongside "normal" humans , there are lots of series to entertain you in the urban fantasy genre. Kelly Armstrong's "Women of the Otherworld" series includes werewolves, vampires and witches with a strong romantic element and lots of action. Jim Butcher's Dresden Files features an eponymous wizard in Chicago who investigates crimes involving demons, wicked faeries, and even stranger monsters.
In our mystery section, you can find Charlain Harris' Sookie Stackhouse series, in which a Louisiana telepath dates vampires and solves mysteries, and also Ben Aaronovitch's Midnight Riot, wherein a London police officer seeks the help of London's river god's to help quell a murdering ghost. The less fantastical Dexter series, by Jeff Lindsay, features a serial killer that only kills other serial killers.
Our non-fiction collection is a strong source of the spooky and spine-chilling. If you look around the Dewey number 364, you will find a rich collection of true crime, including The Devil in the White City, about one of the first human monsters to shock the American public, and Mafia: Inside the Dark Heart. Also, around Dewey 133 you will find lots of books about "real" hauntings, like Haunted Highways. Around Dewey 394, you will find books about folklore and holidays, including Death Makes a Holiday: A Cultural History of Halloween), and Artful Halloween: 31 Frightfully Elegant Projects.
There are even literary monsters in our nonfiction collection. An example is Roseanne Montillo's The Lady and Her Monsters: A Tale of Dissections, Real-life Dr. Frankensteins, and the Creation of Mary Shelley's Masterpiece. Just like Frankenstein's monster itself, The Lady and… is made of a little bit of everything: romance, biography, true crime, and medical drama.
If you listen to books, you can find horror and urban fantasy classics by Stephen King, Dean Koontz, Ted Dekker, Neil Gaiman and many of the author's listed above. In addition, we have a series of radio dramatizations titled Vincent Price Presents, which capitalizes on his eerie reputation.
In our DVD collections, you can find TV shows based on some of the series mentioned above: Sookie Stackhouse (True Blood), and Dexter. We also carry the original Dark Shadows, a soap opera starring the vampire Barnabas Collins, which may have been the first pop culture story to merge the supernatural with the matter-of-fact. The BBC show Being Human is the twenty first century successor of Dark Shadows, a show about a ghost, a vampire, and a werewolf who walk into a bar… oops, I mean, end up as room mates.
Even our music collection can offer scary narrative, with the score of the musical Nightmare Before Christmas representing the monstrous side of things, and the score of the musical Sweeny Todd offering the maniacal side. Our music collection can also offer moody music for the spooky season, including soundtracks to monster-movies: Hellboy 2, The Last House on the Left, Pirates of the Caribbean, and perhaps the scariest music of all time, the movie Jaws, as well as a compilation of tracks from horror movie soundtracks titled Halloween.
In our graphic novel collection you can find the Hellboy series, and it's spinoff B.P.R.D. (Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense), about a group of monstrous and psychic heroes who defend Earth from cosmic evil and cyborg Nazis. The Creepy Archives and Eerie Archives collect horror stories from comics anthologies of the 1960s.
That's at least 26 monstrous hiding places to find fearful entertainment this Halloween season, and beyond.]]>
Whom are you going to curl up with this summer? And where? In a hammock, the porch swing, on a towel at the beach, or a big armchair?
We mean which AUTHOR, of course! What were you thinking?
Are you taking this time of longer days and lazier evenings to reread the classics? Or does that sound too rigorous for the more indolent days you have planned? While some of us are planning to delve into some of Shakespeare again, or to reread Austen, an all-classics summer feels a little ambitious, even for this librarian. What to do?
There are a number of writers who, when they finished their favorite author's oeuvre, could not accept that it was at an end, and so they wrote on—sometimes straight-up sequels, sometimes new twists on a character's story, and sometimes time travels that take the author or the characters to the present day.
We have collected those so that you can devote that hammock time to Shakespeare spinoffs or Austen adaptations, Sherlock simulacrums or Camelot clones. Some of the booklists also include the classics changed to make them accessible to new reading levels. Enjoy!
We also invite you to our Tea and Cakes, Classics and Adaptations with Shakespeare Scholar and writer of classic adaptations Grace Tiffany at the Ladies' Library Association on Thursday, June 12. Register online at www.portagelibrary.info
Lists for some of these "twisted branches" and the novels and plays that are their roots can be found below. They are by no means complete, so additions are welcome! Just email firstname.lastname@example.com.
April is natural poetry month, and the first weekend in April showcases the Kalamazoo Poetry Festival. So in honor of these events, Outside the Book for April has the theme of: Ferocious Poetry: Poems about sex, death, and bad parents. Poetry often illuminates the difficult transactions in life: not just love, but loss, the turmoil of life as often as the beauty. And sometimes it makes the turmoil beautiful. So in honor of national poetry month. Life starts in sex and ends with death, and our emotions about both things are ferocious. We have the influences of ferocious poems everywhere in our collections.
Still Life in Milford – Thomas Lynch. This Michigan undertaker often writes about the connection his profession gives him to his community.
Kingdom Animalia: poems – Aracelis Girmay. Deeply personal poems of transformation and loss and the human heart.
Pallbearers Envying the One Who Rides – Stephen Dobyns. Writes poems about the intersection of masculinity and meaning.
A Mind Like This – Susan Ramsey. Often connects precise moments in history with the battles of home life. Severed heads are sometimes involved.
Love Poems – Anne sexton. A confessional poet offers the reader an intimate view of the emotional anguish that characterized her life.
The Wellspring – Sharon Olds. Uses raw language and startling images to convey truths about domestic and political violence and family relationships.
Complete Poems of Emily Dickenson – Emily Dickenson – Dickenson's poems reflect her "early and lifelong fascination" with illness, dying and death.
Poets often have interesting lives and make interesting subjects for biography.
Byron in Love – Edna O'Brien. Byron always seemed to be in love and on the run, traversing Europe from Spain to Albania. His travels and loves inspired Childe Harold's Pilgrimage and Don Juan.
The Voice is All – The Lonely Victory of Jack Kerouac – Joyce Johnson. The Beat Generation revised a culture's thinking about living life passionately. Kerouac became an underground celebrity covering topics such as Catholic spirituality, promiscuity, Buddhism, poverty, and travel.
I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings- Maya Angelou.
In a similar vein, poets often make a good subject for movies.
Dead Poets Society, while fictional, uses the inspiration poetry provides to tell a story about a teacher's dedication to his class at a highly traditional prep school.
The Raven is a fictionalized account of Edger Allen Poe's life, in which he tracks down a serial killer using his works as inspiration.
Il Postino is a biography of Pablo Neruda, escaped Chilean President Videla by hiding in the basements of friends, eventually exiled to Argentina.
Sylvia Plath, a confessional poet who famously wrote about her authoritarian father. In Sylvia Plath, from the voice of the poet series, she reads some of her most famous poems. If you search for_ voice of the poet_, you will find other poets, including T.S. Elliot and W.H. Auden.
Leonard Cohen's lyrics have been collected as a book of Poetry in Leonard Cohen: Poems and Songs. But we have several collections of his beautiful lyrics and performances, including The Essential Leonard Cohen

Dreaming of kicking your entire life to the curb and moving to the South of France? Peter Mayle's humorous books will let you share what that was like for one ad executive:
"We had to be up early in the morning. We had a goat race to go to… We asked the old man, confident in the knowledge that he, like every Frenchman, would be an expert. 'The goats who make the most droppings before the race are likely to do well. An empty goat is faster than a full goat. C'est logique.'"
Other memoirs to goûter might be Carol Drinkwater's The Olive Farm _and _The Olive Season, Gully Wells' The House in France, or Ten Trees and a Truffle Dog: Sniffing Out the Perfect Plot in Provence by Jamie Ivey.
Pick up some croissants and a café au lait, or maybe a tall glass of lavender lemonade, and dive into one of these romans exquisits: Guy Gavriel Kay's_ Ysabel,_ Laura Resau's The Ruby Notebook, or the erotic The American Woman in the Chinese Hat by Carole Maso.
You like your books historique? Nancy Bazelon Goldstone's Four Queens: The Provençal Sisters Who Ruled Europe might be just the ticket. You may also remember that the original tales of the Knights of the Round Table were by Chrétien de Troyes.
Maybe you are more mysteriously inclined, in which case the mysteries of M.L. Longworth will be more to your taste. Antoine Verlaque, the chief magistrate of Aix, and his love interest, law professor Marine Bonnet, in Aix-en-Provence, France are drawn into intrigues at various chateaux and other landmarks. Barbara Cleverly's Strange Images of Death or Pierre Magnan's The Messengers of Death may appeal to you.
Speaking of taste, the mouthwatering flavors of ratatouille, bouillabaisse, or aioli are readily reproduced after perusing some of the titles in our cookbook collection. Herbes de Provence: Seven Top Provençal Chefs and Their Recipes might be one place to start, and certainly M.F.K. Fisher, Patricia Wells, and Julia Child will vous aider.
Movies range from the Marseilles setting of the gritty French Connection, the first R-rated movie to win an Oscar; to the Paris kitchen of Ratatouille (Paris n'est pas en sud de France, bien sûr, but the title is the name of the signature dish of the region); to The Way, which ranges through Spain and the South of France; to the cornball French Kiss; to Chocolat (this writer's favorite Johnny Depp!).
Of course, we have travel books and videos, should your trip actually require suitcases and itineraries. We have online components to plan your trip as well.

Since starting the business in 2003 with some college buddies, months after graduating from Belhaven University, sales are in the hundreds-of-millions of dollars.
Bomgar provides remote technical support for some of the world's elite enterprises. Clientele includes Intel, IBM, Hewlett Packard and Dell, amongst scores of others. Their product is being used by 7,500 corporate customers in 65 different countries.
Inc. Magazine recognized Bomgar has one of the nation's best private job creators in 2012 and the Mississippi state senate followed suit by making a proclamation concerning the company's successes.
All that success has set the stage for a banner year in 2013, a year the tech company will be celebrating its 10th anniversary. Speaking of the anniversary and employee benefits, Bomgar plans to celebrate a decade in business in Disney World. He is taking all employees worldwide to the iconic, Orlando, Fla., theme park.
Just another perk of being on the payroll at one of the nation's fastest growing tech companies. "Having a job is what most people spend most of their day doing and being able to provide a job that people love, really making a difference and where they're interacting with worldwide companies is a big deal to be doing all that here in Ridgeland," Bomgar said.
With offices in Europe and Asia, the lion-share of employs are in Ridgeland. 120 currently work at the Bomgar offices on Highland Colony Parkway.
And with 14 more employees being added in the near future that is welcome news for the Magnolia State's economy.

Thanksgiving caught me off guard this year, I guess geographical location has something to do with it (duh!); feeling a tinge of guilt I decided to partake with one of the recipes in my upcoming mini-Iraqi cookbook.
This is real easy to make, provided you have either a charlotte pan or a round pan with high edges (at least 4 inches tall). Briefly steam the cauliflower florets, assemble the flan in minutes in a food processor and bake it; perfect to make ahead and present on Thanksgiving Day as your side dish contribution.
Happy Thanksgiving to all!
INGREDIENTS: 6 servings
Pan used is a charlotte pan, 4″ deep and 7″ wide
• 6 cups of cauliflower florets
• 3 eggs
• 3/4 cup of breadcrumbs or 3/4 cup of corn flakes unsweetened
• 1 cup of milk or light cream
• salt, white pepper
• 1/4 tsp of nutmeg
• 1 tsp of cumin
• 1/2 tsp of paprika
• 3/4 cup of grated Swiss cheese (or any yellow cheese)
• 1 small onion, chopped (1/2 cup)
• 2 tbsp of butter (or oil)
1. Break up the cauliflower florets from the cauliflower; boil (or steam) for about 5 minutes in salted boiling water until tender but still firm. Drain and set aside. Cool for 15 minutes, then take half the florets and mash or puree in a food processor or a food mill.
2. Grease a charlotte or deep cake mold (with sides at least 4″ high) and line the remaining cauliflower florets in the bottom of the mold making sure to cover the entire bottom surface so that no gap is visible. Melt the butter in a skillet and fry the onion over medium-low heat for ten minutes until translucent and golden. Transfer the onion to the mashed cauliflower florets in the food processor bowl. Preheat the oven to 350F (180C).
3. Add the eggs to the cauliflower and onion mixture; add the cream or milk, breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, grated nutmeg and cumin and paprika and cheese; process for a few seconds till the mixture is rather smooth and all the elements are well-mixed.
4. Gently pour the cauliflower custard mixture over the layer of florets into the pan. Bake for 25 minutes or until a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean. Remove from the oven and cool for 5 minutes. Invert the pan onto a serving platter and serve immediately.

The relational database may may never die -- at least not anytime soon -- but its days of glory appear to be over.
Relational databases, long a critical piece of enterprise software deployments, are now forced to share the stage with technologies better geared to accommodate newer data structures and modern hardware systems. Stalwart RDBMSes remain in place from software vendors such as IBM, Microsoft, and Oracle, all of which will continue to dominate such core functions as financial transactions. But NoSQL databases, as well as big data technologies such as Apache Hadoop and MapReduce, are where the action is.
[ IT users report that NoSQL offers speed, scalability, and flexibility. | Learn the basics of big data technologies. | Let InfoWorld's Data Explosion interactive iGuide help you manage today's explosion of the data you need to analyze and manage. ]
"The relational database as it stands is dead," says analyst Robin Bloor, chief analyst at the Bloor Group. "Its architecture is old, and it needs to be renewed."
Bloor reasons that RDBMSes were written for old hardware environments with single-CPU systems, a small amount of memory, and large stores of disk space. With the growing prominence of multi-CPU computers and solid-state disks, disk access is no longer as important. "The whole thing is changed. You're going from a train to an airplane," says Bloor. Solid-state disks are faster, so the ratio between disk and memory in terms of read speed will come down, he said.
The RDBMS has been devalued, says Jill McRae, a learning architect for business and intelligence systems at consulting firm Wright Robbins. "It never was completely there," she says, recalling statistics showing very little of the world's data is actually managed in relational systems.
The rise of NoSQL and "NewSQL"
McRae cites the emergence of NoSQL databases as "changing the scope of what a piece of data is." It's no longer primitive data types such as integers and floating points -- data could be a whole document. "[NoSQL] probably scares the hell out of DBAs because they're losing hold of their domain."
NoSQL features databases that are nonrelational, horizontally scalable, distributed, and open source. They can serve as a backing store for Web application servers, content management systems, structured event logging, server-side storage for mobile applications, and document storage, says Dwight Merriman, coauthor of the MongoDB NoSQL database.

Governor Steve Beshear and Louisville mayor Jerry Abramson today announced that Louisville Metro has received $3,000,000 in a Transportation Enhancement Grant for the betterment of Second Street between Main and River Road in Louisville.
The grant, which leverages $2,400,000 in money from the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet and $600,000 in matching funds from Louisville Metro will enhance the historic architectural features, the streetscapes and lighting near the Louisville downtown arena project.
"This will help create significant pedestrian areas in the heart of an emerging center of economic and tourist activity," said Gov. Beshear.
Mayor Abramson applied for the grant through the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet in March, 2009, asking for money to reinvent an existing segment of transportation infrastructure to be transformed to "an area that during arena events is a place for festival and celebration and on the workday is a more effective route to channel commuters in automobiles, pedestrians and cyclists to the key arterials out of downtown."
The project includes improvements to traffic intersections, sidewalks, accessibility/mobility,
landscaping, lighting, architectural enhancement, utilities and creations for a public gathering space.
Goals of the Grant include:
v Mass plantings and large trees to provide comfortable street environments.
v Wide sidewalks to accommodate the large flow of people traveling from the Riverfront to
the arena and provide enough space for street vendors and other activities.
v To further improve the pedestrian environment, a system of under-bridge lighting is
v Lighting will showcase the historic architecture of the bridge and add drama and interest
to Second Street.
v Additional spotlights and accent lighting will accentuate the Second Street corridor and
make it an attractive and vibrant public space.

Nail art has exploded lately, and just when you think all creative avenues have been taken, along come some new innovations.
Here are three cool new ways to modernise your manicure.
The 'caviar' manicure
We're crazy about this cool new kit from Ciate, $46, from Mecca Cosmetica. They've called it a caviar manicure because tiny beads are sprinkled onto the polish as it dries, creating a 3D beaded effect.
The brand is the brainchild of celebrity manicurist Charlotte Knight. While this set makes it easy, you can still create the look on a budget by using micro beads from craft stores (follow You Tube tutorials for instructions).
Double-sided polish
Here's a trend for those with longer nails – paint the underside in a contrasting colour.
The ads for OPI's new Skyfall collection feature Bond girl Berenice Marlohe (Severine) sporting a main coat of burgundy Skyfall with the undersides of nails painted in glittery Goldeneye.
It's a great way to add a little extra to your polish without gong over the top. Plus, undersides of long nails often look grey and dirty when nude, so this solves that problem.
The fuzzy velvet look
Matte nail polishes, also known as suede or velvet, have been around for a while. But new versions involve sprinkling velvet dust all over the nails for a truly velvety, almost furry, finish.
Ciate offers a gorgeous Velvet Manicure Kit, $46, from Mecca Cosmetica, but you can also create the look using flocking powder, available at craft stores.

A popular downtown Phoenix restaurant turned into a crime scene Monday morning after a worker was found stabbed to death inside the kitchen.It appears the victim, identified as 26-year-old Miguel A. Hernandez, was arguing with a fellow employee when the stabbing happened at the Tilted Kilt, located near 1st Street and Washington."A lot of us who work downtown are family.. go to each other's place of business, so the fact something could happen to our family is scare," said Stephanie Fairey.Police say the fight between two men working in the kitchen broke out around 8:45 a.m. while employees were getting ready for the day. Nobody saw what happened, but other employees heard the commotion and when they went into the kitchen to see what was going on, they saw one man stabbed and on the floor, and another man with cuts on his arms.Authorities say the man on the floor was dead when they arrived at the scene. The other man, identified as 23-year-old Javier Romero, was treated at an area hospital and later booked into the Maricopa County Sheriff's office jail on one count of murder in the second degree and one count of aggravated assault on a police officer.
"Evidence and witness statements suggest that Romero attacked the victim this morning without provocation and then self inflicted the injuries he sustained," stated Phoenix Police Sgt. Trent Crump.
Crump added, "The suspect was combative with our officers throughout the day including an attempt to disarm one of our officers at the hospital while he was being treated."
This chaotic scene unfolded as people were going about their normal routines at the start of the workday."We just went to Breakfast Club.. everyone talking about it up there.. it is kind of crazy," said Catie Calhoun. "Yeah, we had no idea what was going on.. nothing."According to Crump, the victim's family stated that he worked at the restaurant since it opened.
The motive for the stabbing and Romero's behavior are still unknown.
Statement from Tilted Kilt:
"Tilted Kilt is saddened by the terrible tragedy that occurred at the Phoenix Pub the morning of November 25th. We are grieving the loss of a valued long time employee. We are supporting the Phoenix Police Department in their ongoing death investigation. Out of respect for the families involved and our employees, the Downtown Pub will be closed until Friday morning, November 29th at 11:00 am. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family during this difficult time. Additionally, Tilted Kilt is also working closely with our employees, offering grief counseling sessions as needed, as they deal with this tragic situation."

It's a life-changing event only a few athletes are selected to participate in, but a young swimmer from Plymouth, Minn., will be competing in the Special Olympics USA Games in New Jersey before 70,000 spectators.
Abby Hirsch has invested the last 12 years of her life to competing in Special Olympics sports and supporting the organization in a variety of ways -- but now that she's made it to the national competition, she can't help but count down the days to the opening ceremony.
"I can't even tell you in words," she said. "It was so exciting for me to find out I got accepted."
Hirsh already has several medals to her name.
"I have an amazing local coach who's been working with me tirelessly on Fridays," she said.
That practice has certainly paid off, because she's now among a select few athletes that will head to New Jersey from Minnesota -- one of 3,500 athletes from across the country to compete.
"Swimming releases all my stress out of me," Hirsh said. "I just feel comfortable in the water."
The 20-year-old says her breast stroke is her best stroke, and she won a gold medal for it in a state competition last year; however, she'll compete in a number of swim events in New Jersey.
"Butterfly, back stroke, breast stroke, freestyle," she counted. "Then, I'm doing 100 free, then 100 breast, and then I'm doing a 4 by 50 medley relay."
With support from the folks at Lifetime Fitness, she practices at least four times a week and logs countless hours to perfect her aquatic craft.
"I'm just there to do my best, and that's the only thing that matters," Hirsh said.
Her parents-- Christopher and Jodi -- see their daughter's trip to nationals as a major milestone, and her older brother, Andy, couldn't' be more stoked.
"I love the joy I see her get out of competing," he told Fox 9 News.
The Special Olympics is about so much more than sports to the Hirsch family because the athlete is also a global messenger for the organization and raises awareness through public speaking.
"Mostly, I talk about the R-word. It is really hurtful and offensive," she said.
Multifaceted and multitalented, Hirsh plans to represent Minnesota with pride.
"I got this experience of a lifetime and that's the biggest thing," she said.
As for what's next, Hirsh says she hopes to become a personal trainer. In fact, she admitted that one of her dreams is to meet celebrity trainer Jillian Michaels.
Hirsh also plans to apply to compete in the global Special Olympics competitions, which will take place next year.

Crystal structure of the complex of hcaii with an indane-sulfonamide inhibitor
Indanesulfonamides are interesting lead compounds for designing selective inhibitors of the different isoforms of the zinc enzyme Carbonic Anhydrase (CA). Herein, we report for the first time the X-ray crystal structure of two such derivatives, namely indane-5-sulfonamide and indane-2-valproylamido-5-sulfonamide, in complex with the physiologically dominant human isoform II. The structural analysis reveals that, although these two inhibitors have quite similar chemical structures, the arrangement of their indane ring within the enzyme active site is significantly diverse. Thus, our findings suggest that the introduction of bulky substituents on the indane-sulfonamide ring may alter the binding mode of this potent class of CA inhibitors, although retaining good inhibitory properties. Accordingly, the introduction of bulky tail moieties on the indane-sulfonamide scaffold may represent a powerful strategy to induce a desired physicochemical property to an aromatic sulfonamide or to obtain inhibitors with diverse inhibition profiles and selectivity for various mammalian CAs.

From MEDLINE®/PubMed®, a database of the U.S. National Library of Medicine.
[CAH2_HUMAN] Defects in CA2 are the cause of osteopetrosis autosomal recessive type 3 (OPTB3) [MIM:259730]; also known as osteopetrosis with renal tubular acidosis, carbonic anhydrase II deficiency syndrome, Guibaud-Vainsel syndrome or marble brain disease. Osteopetrosis is a rare genetic disease characterized by abnormally dense bone, due to defective resorption of immature bone. The disorder occurs in two forms: a severe autosomal recessive form occurring in utero, infancy, or childhood, and a benign autosomal dominant form occurring in adolescence or adulthood. Autosomal recessive osteopetrosis is usually associated with normal or elevated amount of non-functional osteoclasts. OPTB3 is associated with renal tubular acidosis, cerebral calcification (marble brain disease) and in some cases with mental retardation.[1][2][3][4][5]
[CAH2_HUMAN] Essential for bone resorption and osteoclast differentiation (By similarity). Reversible hydration of carbon dioxide. Can hydrate cyanamide to urea. Involved in the regulation of fluid secretion into the anterior chamber of the eye.[6][7]

LG, Samsung and Sony Enter OLED TV Market
Christopher is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
LG Electronics entered the New Year announcing the sale of its next-generation TV display — LG 55EM9700 — a 55-inch organic light-emitting diode (OLED) TV. The company's announcement concludes the race with its rival, Samsung Electronics, to determine which company will first bring OLED technology to the marketplace.
LG retail outlets in South Korea have started accepting pre-orders from only domestic customers for KRW 11-million (US $10,000) with shipments scheduled to begin next month. LG plans to expand sales into North America, Europe, and the rest of Asia during March 2013, the Seoul-based company said in a press release.
At LG's 2013 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) press event in Las Vegas, James Fishler, LG's U.S marketing chief, announced the 55-inch OLED TV will sell for about $12,000 in the United States.
Samsung has scheduled to release its own OLED TVs this year. The tech-giant first revealed its 55-inch ES9500 OLED displays at CES 2012. The South Korean company exhibited its curved OLED TVs, smart cameras and bendable OLED smartphones prototypes at Samsung's 2013 CES press events.
OLED technology offers richer colors, deeper blacks, higher contrast and sharper images than liquid crystal displays (LCDs), light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and plasmas. OLED technology is energy efficient and does not require LED back lighting used in LCD displays. This explains OLED TVs thinness. LG's model measures 4 millimeters thick at 22 pounds.
According to market research firm NPD Display Search, sales of all TV types declined more than 4 percent in 2012. It forecasts global TV demand to remain flat in the New Year with economic uncertainty plaguing consumer spending and confidence. The firm projects OLED TV sales to total approximately 50,000 units in 2013, 1.7-million units in 2014 and 7.2-million units by 2016.

"Worldwide demand for TVs continues to face pressure from external factors, such as slowing economic growth, high unemployment rates, and the rising household penetration of flat panel TVs," said Paul Gagnon, Director of North America TV Research at Display Search. "At the same time, internal factors, such as slower cost reductions and a greater focus on profits at the expense of volume, are leading to a lower level of retail price erosion, which is also impacting demand."
LG and Samsung promised to deliver OLED TVs to the marketplace during the fourth quarter of 2012, but delayed mass production. High production costs from poor manufacturing processes hampered efforts to launch the technology. LG Display (NYSE: LPL), LG's manufacturing subsidiary, has improved production yields to meet OLEDs limited demand.
Universal Display Corp. (NASDAQ: OLED), a developer of OLED technologies and materials for flat panel display, supplies OLED materials to LG and Samsung, its two largest customers. The company embraces high supplier power and influences the prices of its OLED materials to make higher profits, but these actions hold the risk of losing LG as a customer. Losing LG or Samsung would deteriorate the company's revenue stream.
Universal Display's revenue has grown 442 percent from 2007 to 2011, but it failed to impress investors with its poor Q3 2012 earnings in November. OLED TV delays from LG and Samsung last year weakened the company's OLED material sales. Universal Display forecasts full-year 2012 revenue of $80-million to $82-million, as opposed to prior estimates of $90-million to $110-million.
Consumers reacting poorly to OLED TVs will dampen LG's sales — an issue for Universal Display. Universal Display's weak third quarter revenues were a result of customers slashing orders of OLED materials. If OLED TVs perform poorly in the marketplace, LG may continue to cut orders from Universal Display.
Sony Bounces Back
In December 2007, Sony Corp. (NYSE: SNE) introduced its own OLED TV modeled XEL-1. The 11-inch XEL-1 was not necessarily a commercial product but a technology prototype. Sony manufactured the OLED TV in small volumes and sold it for $2,500. The Japanese company discontinued production of the XEL-1 in February 2010. Sony was unable to manufacture the technology cost efficiently and reduce the commercial price to an affordable level.
Sony's failure did not stop the company from moving forward. The company developed strong partnerships to propel it back into the OLED TV business.
In June 2012, Sony and Panasonic announced a partnership to develop OLED technology "suitable for low-cost mass production of large, high resolution OLED panels and modules." Sony may have solved the issues it faced in 2007. The company claims the partnership will reduce total costs of production and improve manufacturing yields to help accelerate its OLED TV sales.
Sony worked with AU Optronics Corp, a Taiwanese LCD and OLED panel manufacturer, to develop the first OLED TV with 4K resolution. Sony unveiled its 4K OLED TV at the company's press event at CES 2013 — a threat to LG and Samsung's OLED TV market share.

This article covers the basic process of starting Access 2010 and creating a database that will be used on desktop machines, not over the Web. It explains how to create a desktop database by using a template, and how to build a database from scratch by creating your own tables, forms, reports, and other database objects. It also explains some techniques that you can use to get existing data into your new database.
Note Access 2010 also supports creating web databases that are deployed on a server running Access Services, a new component of SharePoint Server. You can use a web database with a web browser — Access is not required unless you want to make design changes. This article does not explain how to create a web database. For more information about creating a web database, see the article Build an Access database to share on the Web.
When you first start Access, or if you close a database without closing Access, Microsoft Office Backstage view is displayed.
Backstage view is a starting point from which you can create a new database, open an existing database, view featured content from Office.com — anything you can use Access to do to a database file or outside of a database, as opposed to within a database.
When you open Access, Backstage view displays the New tab. The New tab provides several ways that you can create a new database:
Once you are working in a database, you can add fields, tables or application parts.
Application parts are a new feature that let you use several related database objects together as if they were one. For example, an application part might consist of a table and a form that is based on the table. You can add the table and the form at the same time by using the application part.
You can also create queries, forms, reports, macros - all the database objects that you are used to working with.
Access comes with a variety of templates that you can use as-is or as a starting point. A template is a ready-to-use database that contains all the tables, queries, forms, and reports needed to perform a specific task. For example, there are templates that you can use to track issues, manage contacts, or keep a record of expenses. Some templates contain a few sample records to help demonstrate their use.
If one of these templates fits your needs, using it is usually the fastest way to get a database started. However, if you have data in another program that you want to import into Access, you might decide it is better to create a database without using a template. Templates have a data structure already defined, and it might require a lot of work to adapt your existing data to the template's structure.
Note Although they both use SharePoint, a desktop database linked to a SharePoint site is not the same as a web database using Access Services. To use a desktop database, you must have Access installed. A web database can be used with a web browser.
Access creates a database from the template that you chose, and then opens the database. For many templates, a form is displayed in which you can begin entering data. If your template contains sample data, you can delete each record by clicking the record selector (the shaded box or bar just to the left of the record), and then doing the following:
On the Home tab, in the Records group, click Delete.
For more information about working with templates, see the article Select and use an Access template.
Top of Page
If you are not interested in using a template, you can create a database by building your own tables, forms, reports, and other database objects. In most cases, this involves one or both of the following:
To learn more about how to plan and design a database, see the See Also section.
Access creates the database with an empty table named Table1, and then opens Table1 in Datasheet view. The cursor is placed in the first empty cell in the Click to Add column.
Entering data in Datasheet view is designed to be very similar to working in an Excel worksheet. The table structure is created while you enter data. When you add a new column to the datasheet, a new field is defined in the table. Access automatically sets each field's data type, based on the data that you enter.
If you do not want to enter data in Table1 at this time, click Close . If you made any changes to the table, Access prompts you to save the changes. Click Yes to save your changes, click No to discard them, or click Cancel to leave the table open.
Tip Access looks for a file named Blank.accdb in the folder located at [install drive]:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Templates\1033\Access\. If it exists, Blank.accdb is the template for all new blank databases, excluding web databases. Any content it contains is inherited by all new blank databases. This is a good way to distribute default content, such as part numbers or company disclaimers and policies. Remember, Blank.accdb has no effect on the creation of blank new web databases.
Important If you close Table1 without saving it at least once, Access deletes the entire table, even if you have entered data in it.
You can add new tables to an existing database by using the commands in the Tables group on the Create tab.
Create a table, starting in Datasheet view In Datasheet view, you can enter data immediately and let Access build the table structure behind the scenes. Field names are assigned numerically (Field1, Field2, and so on), and Access automatically sets each field's data type, based on the data you enter.
Access creates the table and selects the first empty cell in the Click to Add column.
You can move the field by dragging it. When you drag a field in a datasheet, a vertical insertion bar appears where the field will be placed.
You should give a meaningful name to each field, so that you can tell what it contains when you see it in the Field List pane.
Create a table, starting in Design view In Design view, you first create the table structure. You then switch to Datasheet view to enter data, or enter data by using some other method, such as pasting, or importing.
Set field properties in Design view Regardless of how you created your table, it is a good idea to examine and set field properties. While some properties are available in Datasheet view, some properties can only be set in Design view. To switch to Design view, right-click the table in the Navigation Pane and then click Design View. To see a field's properties, click the field in the design grid. The properties are displayed below the design grid, under Field Properties.
To see a description of each field property, click the property and read the description in the box next to the property list under Field Properties. You can get more detailed information by clicking the Help button.
The following table describes some of the field properties that are commonly adjusted.
If your data is currently stored in another program, such as Excel, you can copy and paste it into an Access table. In general, this works best if your data is already separated into columns, as they are in an Excel worksheet. If your data is in a word processing program, it is best to separate the columns of data by using tabs, or to convert the data into a table in the word processing program before you copy the data. If your data needs any editing or manipulation (for example, separating full names into first and last names), you might want to do this before you copy the data, especially if you are not familiar with Access.
When you paste data into an empty table, Access sets the data type of each field according to what kind of data it finds there. For example, if a pasted field contains nothing but date values, Access applies the Date/Time data type to that field. If the pasted field contains only the words "yes" and "no", Access applies the Yes/No data type to the field.
Access names the fields depending on what it finds in the first row of pasted data. If the first row of pasted data is similar in type to the rows that follow, Access determines that the first row is part of the data and assigns the fields generic names (F1, F2, etc.). If the first row of pasted data is not similar to the rows that follow, Access determines that the first row consists of field names. Access names the fields accordingly and does not include the first row in the data.
If Access assigns generic field names, you should rename the fields as soon as possible to avoid confusion. Use the following procedure:
Note You can also rename the fields by switching to Design view and editing the field names there. To switch to Design view, right-click the table in the Navigation Pane and click Design View. To switch back to Datasheet view, double-click the table in the Navigation Pane.
You might have data that is stored in another program, and you want to import that data into a new table or append it to an existing table in Access. Or you might work with people who keep their data in other programs, and you want to work with it in Access by linking to it. Either way, Access makes it easy to work with data from other sources. You can import data from an Excel worksheet, from a table in another Access database, from a SharePoint Foundation list, or from a variety of other sources. The process you use differs slightly, depending on your source, but the following procedure will get you started.
For example, if you are importing data from an Excel worksheet, click Excel. If you don't see the program type that you need, click More.
Note If you can't find the correct format type in the Import group, you might have to start the program in which you originally created the data and then use that program to save the data in a common file format (such as a delimited text file (delimited text file: A file containing data where individual field values are separated by a character, such as a comma or a tab.)) before you can import that data into Access.
If you import objects or link tables from an Access database, either the Import Objects or Link Tables dialog box appears. Choose the items that you want and then click OK.
The exact process depends on whether you choose to import, append, or link data.
If you chose to import a table, Access imports the data into a new table and then displays the table under the Tables group in the Navigation Pane. If you chose to append data to an existing table, the data is added to that table. If you chose to link to data, Access creates a linked table under the Tables group in the Navigation Pane.
For more specific information about how to import various types of data into Access, see the links in the See Also section.
You can use an application part to add functionality to an existing database. An application part can be as simple as a single table, or it can comprise several related objects, such as a table and a bound form.
For example, the Comments application part consists of a table with an AutoNumber ID field, a date field, and a memo field. You can add it to any database and use it as-is, or with minimal customizing.
Note You can directly open a data file in an external file format, such as dBASE, Microsoft Exchange, or Excel. You can also directly open any ODBC data source (ODBC data source: Data and the information needed to access that data from programs and databases that support the Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) protocol.), such as Microsoft SQL Server. Access automatically creates a new Access database in the same folder as the data file, and adds links to each table in the external database.
You can also show recent databases in the navigation bar of Backstage view, for two-click access: 1) the File tab, 2) the recent database that you want to open. Near the bottom of the Recent tab, select the Quickly access this number of Recent Databases check box, and then adjust the number of databases to show.

BURLINGTON, Mass., July 8, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Decision Resources Group finds that the market for trauma devices and reconstructive joint implants in Argentina, Brazil, Colombia and Mexico will be driven by favorable demographics, high numbers of motor vehicle accidents and improving access to health care, which will allow more patients to undergo these procedures. However, limited health care facility budgets will continue to hinder market growth to some extent. As a result, the market will expand moderately through 2022 to reach a value of approximately $1.75 billion.
