Illicit Discharges and Illegal Dumping
What we do on land affects the quality of water we drink and use in so many ways. Stormwater regulations define an "illicit discharge" as "any discharge to a municipal separate storm sewer that is not composed entirely of stormwater" (except discharges resulting from fire fighting activities and a few other categories). Common sources of non-stormwater, dry weather discharges in urban areas come from a variety or residential, commercial and industrial facilities, including apartments and homes, car washes, restaurants, gas stations, carpet cleaners and mobile pressure washing, to name but a few. These so called "generating sites" can cause water pollution from trash dumping, improper pet waste disposal and the discharge of grey water, sanitary sewer effluent, vehicle wash water, washdown from grease traps, motor oil, antifreeze, gasoline and fuel spills, among other substances. Residents who observe an illicit discharge, illegal dumping or observe pollutants within waterways or storm sewers should contact the City of Salinas, Environmental & Maintenance Services Office, (831) 758-7233, M-F, 8am-5pm. After hours, on weekends or holidays, call 911. For non-emergencies contact Environmental and Maintenance Services online.
Improperly maintained planting on private property can be a hazard to life, limb, and property. Generally, landscaping needs to be appropriately spaced so it does not interfere with the adequate lighting of the premises or restrict access to emergency apparatus, such as fire hydrants. Planting of trees and large shrubs shall not interfere with the "safe sight distance" for vehicles, bicycles, or pedestrian traffic. If landscaping is proposed within 25 feet from a driveway or street corner, please contact Permit & Inspection Services at (831) 758-7206 to ensure your proposal will have a safe line of sight.

I read the article on Mr. Melvin Muhammad and couldn't help but shake my head in disbelief with a half-muted chuckle.
Wait a minute, he went in as councilman to create controversy? Did I read that right? I did, because I read it several more times to be sure. Isn't that an oxymoron? A councilman intends to create controversy, not work to dispel controversy and create harmony among fellow commissioners and the community?
Having a stimulating conversation to resolve a particular subject is one thing but to purposely create dissension, boy, do I have the wrong idea of how to communicate apparently. Either I have a backwards view of what a councilman does or Mr. Muhammad does.
Sure, if there are controversies they need to be resolved but holy smokes, you don't go in with the intent of creating them, do you? I already knew that Mr. Muhammad thrived on the enjoyment of driving a wedge between accomplishments (if they weren't in his favor) and harmonious relationships before he became councilman and sure enough that's exactly what he did, so I suppose he fulfilled his goal. Unfortunately, at least in my mind, he has the wrong goals.
I would say his legacy as councilman has proven to be a very futile one to say the least.

"This is the hour of lead
Remembered if outlived,
As freezing persons recollect the snow —
First chill, then stupor, then the letting go."
—Emily Dickinson
Colleen Meehan Barkow and her mother JoAnn Meehan spent the weekend before Sept. 11, 2001, happily shopping for towels and linens for the 26-year-old's new home in the Poconos.
Colleen and her husband Daniel, married less than a year, were planning to move into the house at the end of October. It meant a long commute into New York, where Colleen worked as a facilities director for Cantor Fitzgerald, on the 103rd floor of the North Tower of the World Trade Center.
But as JoAnn Meehan was helping her only daughter load the items into her Nissan SUV, she was overwhelmed by a sudden feeling of dread.
"I had this feeling something was going to happen," said Joann. "I knew it. I had a horrible feeling in the pit of my stomach something was going to happen."
Several days later, on the morning of Sept. 11, JoAnn was at her job as a paraprofessional at the Carteret Middle School. The principal came by the classroom and asked to see her out in the hallway.
"She said 'JoAnn, I know your daughter works in the World Trade Center,'" Meehan recalled. "'I just heard on the radio the Trade Center was hit by an airplane.' She sent me home."
Her husband Thomas J. Meehan III was already home. He had been laid off recently from his job at Schering-Plough and was working part-time as a security guard.
JoAnn told herself as she got into the car that it must have been a small sightseeing plane that had crashed into the building. Then she turned on the radio.
"I heard on the radio Tower One was hit by this huge plane," she recalled. "I think I went into shock. I have no idea how I made it home. I came in screaming."
The couple frantically turned on the television. The screen was black. The radio was out, phones were silent.
Carteret, close to lower Manhattan, received all telephone, television and communications from the massive antennas on top of Tower One. A friend lugged an ancient black and white television—complete with "rabbit ears" antenna—to the Meehan's home.
They turned it on. And Tom and JoAnn Meehan knew in an instant their daughter was probably gone.
Their house filled up with family and friends over the next few days. They manned cell phones, frantically calling hospital after hospital for news of Colleen.
"We didn't know if she was alive," Tom Meehan said.
One man who answered the phone at St. Mary's Hospital in Hoboken told the couple an injured female with the last name of Meehan had been brought in. For an instant, hope flickered.
"He got so excited," Tom Meehan recalled. "He thought he had a match."
But it wasn't Colleen. For days the family lived in a terrified limbo, not knowing whether Colleen was dead or alive.
"There was no sleep," JoAnn said. "We got used to eating burned food. I would try and cook and never remember when I put the food on."
On Sept. 17, 2001, the Meehans got their answer. The New York City Medical Examiner's Office called to tell them some of Colleen's remains had been found. Their daughter died of smoke inhalation.
"That was probably one of the most difficult trips we made," JoAnn said. "We have all the pictures from the medical examiner's office. We've never opened them. I couldn't do that. I wanted to remember her the way she was, not the way they found her."
Thus began the Meehan's long journey into grief, a journey that continues to this day. The couple were no strangers to losing a child. Their infant son Eric died four hours after he was born in 1973. Colleen's death sent them back down that dark path.
"I was in a walking coma for years," JoAnn said. "I walked around. I functioned. But I was in another world. It was just horrible."
Tom couldn't sleep. Early one morning, around 2 a.m., he checked his e-mail. There was a message from a gentleman who had made it his mission to photograph items that had been found near the World Trade Center and send the pictures to families who had lost loved ones.
The man asked Tom to visit the website he had set up.
Tom clicked on the website, then clicked on a picture. What he saw "put me in tears."
It was a photo of his daughter's battered Cantor Fitzgerald business card, charred around the edges, but still intact.
"That set us off," he said.
The Meehans steeled themselves for a trip to Ground Zero. They had to run a gauntlet of psychiatrists and psychologists before they could visit the still-smoldering ruins of the Twin Towers.
They were granted permission. The couple was escorted to the site by members of the National Guard. It was not an easy trip.
"I almost passed out," JoAnn recalled. "A fireman came over with an oxygen tank. I couldn't catch my breath, just to know my daughter was in that huge pile of rubble."
But they still go, year after year, anniversary after anniversary.
"It's a need to be near her," JoAnn says. "That's how I feel close to her. That's where she died. I just feel a need to be there. All the other families, we just all feel the same way. It's just a way to deal with it."
They will be at Ground Zero this year, along with their only surviving child, Daryl. Daryl, 42, was chosen to be a reader at the memorial service.
He has never recovered from his sister's death, JoAnn Meehan says.
"He's still not dealing with it," his mother says. "They were very close."
Daryl and his wife have three daughters, one of whom is named after Colleen. She bears a striking resemblance to her aunt.
"They know all about her," JoAnn said. "They know who she is. they know her picture. They know she died at the World Trade Center."
Ask Tom and JoAnn Meehan about closure and they both grimace. For them, the word has no meaning.
"Ten years you cry a river out," she said. "You get to a point where you still have the need to talk about it. So people don't forget."

Since I'd just written an article about the Civil War-era U.S. Colored Troops for our local magazine, when I was in Boston I asked my friend Monika to take me to see the memorial honoring Robert Gould Shaw and the 54th Massachusetts, which was one of the first units of black soldiers to fight in the Civil War. The monument, which is a gorgeous bas relief sculpture by Augustus Saint-Gaudens, sits right across Beacon Street from the State House, in Boston Commons (turns out Shaw lived down the street at 44 Beacon). It was unveiled on Memorial Day, 1897.
Here's another look:
I was interested in the sculpture's subject matter, and the sculptor, since I'd read about him in David McCollough's The Greater Journey. I also wanted to show Monika the cool way Saint-Gaudens inscribed his monogram.
So we started looking for the monogram, peering into all the nooks and crannies in the sculpture. We looked at the horse's hooves, the men's boots, the field at the top. We probably spent half an hour just poking around. And while we were doing it, we really got sucked in. The expressions on the men's faces, the drape of the fabric of their uniforms, the thicket of rifles above their heads, the muscles and veins on the horse. We talked less and looked more. It was really cool.
Which got me thinking about what we're doing, or should be doing, when we look at a piece of art. I found this cool article by James Elkins on Huff Post that discusses how to look at a work of art. Elkins mentions a woman who spent her lunch hour every day sitting before the same Rembrandt painting … for decades. He then describes his thinking as he looks at a medieval devotional image of the Madonna. It strikes me that looking, really looking, at a piece of art can be a form of meditation, a way to slow down and participate in the beauty around you:
"Looking for a long time is not the usual way people see artworks," writes Elkins. "The usual interaction with an artwork is a glance or a glimpse or a cursory look. What I have in mind is a different kind of experience: not just glancing, but looking, staring, gazing, sitting or standing transfixed: forgetting, temporarily, the errands you have to run, or the meeting you're late for, and thinking, living, only inside the work. Falling in love with an artwork, finding that you somehow need it, wanting to return to it, wanting to keep it in your life."
That's what I mean. That's what happens to me (sometimes) when I relax and really get into a painting, even though I'm a novice and have only a vague idea what I'm doing when I look. I think that's what began to happen for Monika and me at the Shaw Memorial. Seems to me it's a way of seeing and experiencing the world that I'd be wise to practice … that if I were skilled at it, I'd get more out of not just the art I look at, but every moment of my life.
You can read more from Elkins here and here.

Whoa, dude, nice landscapes
Mmm... juicy landscape
"What does it mean to be an artist? It's constant, unrelenting, everlasting failure. That's what it is. You have to be really tough to take it." -Carl Larsson
Skethbook! | Deviantart! | Blog!
maficiento! lovely!!! A+!
thanks guys! =D
something i did for uni.... if anyone thinking doing a MA in fine art ... please dont! save yourself =p lol ... seriously!
Wow, dude, that is a killer piece!! Reminds me of a Min Yum piece.
haha love it man, was it photo ref or mirror?
Wow, amazing! I'll have to see that in person!
Sometimes I think you should have done an Illustration MA, but to be honest I think you'd have gotten the same treatment.
Also, good tones + colour variation in the digital landscape.
Koto =D im doing a bigger oil one with different composition lets hope they "like" it =)
tehmeh a photo, very embarrassing to pose for myself, and hard to get the light and focus right!!
BHCS LOL! dude you're funny =3 glad i could help you with that, cuz i have such impact in your portfolio application as much in the uni itself. its a pleasure to be part of your life *
flurry lol i know, sometimes i think i was born 100 years to late =p enjoying doing digitals, its funny how you have to use different muscles, keep practicing.
some sutdies from the masters done in pencil
great stuff as always Call0ps, your marks are really distinctive to you.
Hope your doing well
Love the hatching
"it's much easier to scale up from simplicity than to scale back from complexity"
Incredible man, recognised that levitan from a mile off, you've reminded me to open his book and do some digitals from them.
and yes BHCS, the world revolves around you.
Whoaaaaa, damn you've been working hard! Figures and landscapes studies look equally great, in love with those Levitan sketches.
What great master pieces to draw from!
Awww yeah, makes me wanna try some pencil / charcoal studies of the old masters
mmm that hits the sweet spot
digital study after Velazquez ... sweet digitals...
Oh. Lovely stuff!
I need to go back and look at the rest now
Color strokes are good, I have to refuel
Awesome stuff in here!
Your pencil sketches feel very alive and full of movement.
I also really like how dark your paintings are but sometimes you tend to go too dark too fast. The three-dimensionality of your paintings could greatly improve by differentiating between dark and very dark. I hope you understand what I mean^^
Keep up the great work!
Really awesome landscapes. They make me want to go out and do some but I have to focus on anatomy and the figure. Great work though!
Please stop by my sketchbook and leave me a critique: http://www.conceptart.org/forums/sho...d.php?t=237656
Ooh nice study! Love the warm shadows balanced against the lit and less saturated skin. Some great modelling going on too, especially around the forehead and temple.
please post again! )))
Master studies
J.S.Sargent and Sir Alfred Munnings
and of course .. the "horrors" of art school >< the red one is quote "more expressive and interesting" my favorite 2 words in one sentence =3

Campylopterus hemileucurus (violet sabrewing)
Violet Sabrewing on Lek (Campylopterus hemileucurus) - This sparrow-sized bird is one of the largest Hummers, and one of the most beautiful. This male was recorded on his "Lek". A Lek is a place where males of a species gather to display their wares to the available females in the area. It is usually a small area where several (10 or so in this case) males are within sight and earshot of each other. Leks can be found by listening for continuous calling coming from several birds of the same species. This was recorded in early June. (Costa Rica)

Summary of Dead or Alive Summary of Dead or Alive Reviews for Dead or Alive An Excerpt from Dead or Alive
"A taut and tidy thriller"(San Diego Union-Tribune) focusing on a manhunt for a deranged killer—from the nationally bestselling author who "gets better and better."(Tony Hillerman )
Living in London while his wife serves as a military attaché at the American Embassy, recently retired Santa Fe police chief Kevin Kerney gets an early morning phone call that changes everything and sends him hurrying home to his New Mexico ranch. Riley Burke, his partner in a horse-training enterprise, has been mowed down on Kerney's doorstep by an escaped prisoner cutting a murderous swath through New Mexico.
As the killings mount, Kerney teams up with his half-Apache son, Lieutenant Clayton Istee of the Lincoln County Sheriff's Department, to hunt for a psychotic murderer with a growing appetite for blood—who has no intention of being taken alive.

New York's gas shortage is mostly over, thanks to creative solutions like odd-even gas rationing and deliveries from out of state, as well as the re-opening of a major Canadian refinery, according to the New York Times.
Distributors have dispatched trucks from out-of-state to get gas into New York, and federal and state agencies have provided more than 2.3 million gallons to gas stations.
"I think it's very resourceful of them; otherwise, we'd be out of business," Andrew Harris, a Long Island Shell gas station owner, told the Times. "If my regular supplier can't deliver, what am I going to do? Should I just go under?"
The paper also reports that Irving Oil Corporation, based in Canada, will re-open a giant refinery in St. John, New Brunswick, that will produce more than 12 million gallons of refined petroleum products a day – over half of which is used in the Northeast.
The re-opening of the refinery is "very important," according to Tom Kloza, senior oil analyst at the Oil Price Information Service, since they make so much reformulated gasoline, the cleanest gasoline that is required in New Jersey and New York.
After a power outage, Hess is also preparing to restart operations at its Port Reading, N.J., refinery, which makes 2.9 million gallons of fuel products a day. The nearby Phillips 66 refinery in Linden, N.J., also affected by a power outage, will re-open in about two weeks.
And though may New York City drivers were calling for an end to gas rationing, Mayor Michael Bloomberg signed an order extending the rationing for another five days, until 6 a.m. on Monday.

Starts right up every time. Noise level for this size of a compressor is great.

Did the breakin procedure and the thing failed. Wouldn't fire up the first time, loaded motor but no compressor. Had to take it back, total misery. Very disappointed, we'll see how customer service treats us.

The first compressor had a porosity in the pump cylinder wall so it had to be returned. Quality control should have found this. The second compressor was in perfect shape. Followed the set up and break-in directions and it fills quickly and is much quieter than the oilless version. I re-plumbed the condensate drain with an elbow, longer pipe and a ball valve so it could be accessed as the original is hard to reach and has very limited clearance for your fingers. After that the compressor works great and I'm happy with it.

I ended up choosing this compressor because it just fit under my wall cabinets (30 gallon and up machines are too tall and I didn't want to give up floor space to a horizontal tank). And the price on sale was right! I read most of the reviews - the "good, the bad and the ugly" and thought I might be taking a bit of a chance in buying this model. Any way, I went ahead but took a few precautions: 1) I picked up the compressor at the local store (to reduce chance of damage by carrier some reviewers mentioned); 2) after unpacking it I checked the belt alignment as described in the manual; 3) I checked the oil level before running it; and 4) after running it for the recommended 30 minutes with the drain valve open I changed the oil. It takes about 18 oz. so I suggest picking up a couple of quarts for future changes. I found the right oil on the ********** web site. It is not in the store. Compressor has about 20 hours on it now and is running fine -- and a bit quieter than my two gallon dual-tank pancake style. Heckuva lot more air too!

I bought this compressor on sale and got it for a great deal. Got it home, performed the break-in as required and changed the oil. Since then the compressor has ran everyday with zero issues. Its really quite compared to my last compressor, and refills itself in less than a minute. Its very conveinent that it isnt to bulky and can be plugged into both 110v and 220v. The only things that slightly bugged me, was that the oil required for the compressor wasn't available at SEARS, but it was at another store that rhyms with Bose for about 7 bucks a bottle (1.5 required). That and the drain valve can be a pain to access sometimes. Either way these two things wouldnt delay me in suggesting or buying this compressor again!!!

I have owned a few single stage 20 gal electric compressors rated for air tools but they never could keep up. I had to wait and the noise was blasting!! This model at long last leaves me nothing to complain about. It keeps up with every air tool at ********** & ***** models only to return them. I opted for the 2 stage for low noise, longevity and the ability to keep my air supply going strong. This compressor is THE buy for a home unit, you will never be disappointed and the price, well the compressor is worth every penny and then some! If you are at all in the know about air compressors, air tools and the volume required to run those tools the right way stop hesitating and go buy this model.

11041 S Eastern Ave, Henderson, NV | Directions 8905235.991237 -115.102642
Great Sushi. I love this place. Great times, a bit pricey, but quality!. Wish they had more locations!
Best Sushi! – This place is great, we will definitely be coming back! My husband and I were on our honeymoon and decided to look for reviews for a good sushi restaurant. I Love Sushi had many great reviews we couldn't resist.
I believe we went on a Tuesday night and figured the place wouldbe kind of slow, however when we arrived, we were lucky to find a place at the bar! The place was packed and although were also entertaining large parties, offered great service, and incredible sushi.
The names of the various rolls were quite entertaining, and a conversation piece to say the least.
Although we live in California, this is definitely our favorite sushi spot, and will be making a trip back out soon!
The Seven Hills Local's Favorite – This is the one we always come back to, because it is creative (ok - i get that Ryan's Roll is not REAL Japanese, but get over it), service is fabulous, they remember what we like and where we like to sit. Yes, we are regulars, yet we also sample the roughly 14,312 competitors in the Las Vegas valley, and this is the winner. Setting aside the racist shots at the owners of other reviewers, they are wonderful people.
Try the Ryan's Roll - really - I am a fan of real sushi (for 30 years now) and sashimi, but this roll is worth taking the leftovers home.
THE WORST...SERVICE, FOOD, OH, & I GOT SICK!!! – This will be the last time I ever go to a KOREAN run "fake" Japanese restaurant. What was I thinking. I walked in, and they spoke a few Japanese words, and they WERE WEARING THE JAPANESE FLAG HEADBANDS. I really thought, for a second, that they were the real thing. Until you get the food. Wow...not even close to Japanese style or taste. Imagine that. Koreans trying to be Japanese. Not even close. Their attitudes suck, and their breath stinks. Stick with mondoo and kimchee.Get a life, Koreans! Don't attempt to be Japanese.
Korean Garbage, with mayo, of course!! – Korean's have been fooling the public for years with their "imitation" Japanese. They even wear a Japanese headband, and speak the few Japanese words as you enter and exit.
Do not be fooled by the Korean scam!!
Osaka is #!, and always will be.
Amazing Sushi and fun atmosphere!! – First I would like to say I am amazed by some of the extremely emotional negative reviews. I think I would have to agree that some of those reviews are quite possibly coming from competitors. I Love Sushi is fantastic. I have been going to this restaurant for 5 years. I have been all over town and on the strip to other places, and absolutely NO ONE compares. It is true that it gets loud and lively in there. If you would like to avoid most of that, just don't go on their busiest days which are Friday and Saturday. My husband and I went to Australia last year and thought for sure we would have superior sushi there....NOT EVEN CLOSE TO I LOVE SUSHI! Maybe the fun atmosphere isn't for everyone, but I love it and will never waste my time going anywhere else again!
Excellent. Excellent! – This place is great! For anyone wanting to meet up with friends for some good food this is a great local spot.
Fake Japanese restaurant – If anybody thinks this is good Japanese restaurant, you have never ever been to a real Japanese restaurant. I am sorry, but this place is Korean restaurant serving Japanese dishes, by the way, I love Korean food.
Sushi - rice is too big and the fish too thin.
Tempura - too much batter and bad oil.
Rich - cheap low quality rice.
Miso soup - maybe instant.
Green tea - very low grade.
Sushi rice - badly seasoned.
More power to them, places is always full and everyone is having a good time.
A good place to go if you don't have taste – The food was so-so, the atmosphere was immature and the interior decor and outfits of the servers contrived. I was there with two friends for a quick bite out during the workweek but could barely converse because of the noise level, which was only worsened by the guy in a kamikazi costume banging a gong and shouting "I LOVE SUSHI" in the middle of the restaurant before people drink a sake-bomb, which occurred multiple times over the evening. On top of that, I got a screaming headache when I returned home, the cause of which is likely the extremely high amount of MSG they put in their food. There are enough other sushi places in Vegas that I wouldn't waste your time trying this place out.
Great Name - Not-so-great food – For anyone who has ever been to Japan please do not go here. The atmosphere is completely fake with all of the waitresses wearing silk robes that I assume are supposed to be similar to a ukata or a kimono. The service was awful. Apparently our server was having a bad day and she didn't want anyone to know about it except for everyone who was in the resteraunt. It was extremely loud with dishes and plates clanking everywhere. I felt like I was in a Chilis or the Outback Steakhouse but that was not where I wanted to go. i wanted to sit down and have a nice Japanese meal. Oh, I almost forgot. If you like authentic Japanese food do not trapse through the doors of this establishment. It is American-Japanese sushi with all of those bizzare "rolls" and other dishes to include Korean, Chinese, and even some from Southeast Asia. Not good, not friendly, and not worth your time.

2010-11 Donruss #254
|* The Panini Threads cards isn't really a 'true' rookie, but it's his only one from that set. You'll find autograph parallels of the same card. Jordan also has a dual autograph card in 10/11 Elite Black Box Basketball that isn't listed above. I would say his best rookie would be his National Treasures, but his Gold Standard and Classics are nice cards. Most cards show Crawford in his Atlanta Hawks uniform, as he was traded during his rookie season to the Washington Wizards. Jordan made headlines when he said he 'could be better than (Michael) Jordan' ... if he keeps working on his game. We'll see, but if you look at his numbers late in his rookie season, he was out-playing teammate & #1 pick John Wall. NBA Basketball RC Card Checklist

I really have no postive feelings for Lisa what so ever. Being Elvis' child is the only positive thing about her, and that's not enough to like her. It's enough however to make her very special.
And I still don't understand her negative attitude. And why does she acts like a raging teenager, while she's an almost 40 year old mother? She looks instable with a very forced image.

Current Research Interests:
Applying the lithographic fabrication technologies from the computer industry for the design and synthesis of new medicines and vaccines; Nanomedicine; Interventional oncology; Fluoropolymers: photolithography, fuel cells, microfluidics, minimally adhesive surfaces; Medical devices; Colloid, surfactant and surface chemistry; Patterning surfaces, manipulation of light; Polymer synthesis and processing in CO2: new polymers, interfacial science and colloids, reaction kinetics and engineering, green chemistry.
Research Synopsis:
The recent breakthroughs in the DeSimone laboratories using specifically-designed materials for imprint lithography have enabled an extremely versatile and flexible method for the direct fabrication and harvesting of monodisperse, shape-specific nano-biomaterials. The method, referred to as Particle Replication In Non-wetting Templates, or PRINT, allows for the fabrication of monodisperse particles with simultaneous control over structure (i.e. shape, size, composition) and function (i.e. cargo, surface structure).
Unlike other particle fabrication techniques, PRINT is delicate and general enough to be compatible with a variety of important next-generation cancer therapeutic, detection and imaging agents, including various cargos (e.g. DNA, proteins, chemotherapy drugs, biosensor dyes, radio-markers, contrast agents), targeting ligands (e.g. antibodies, cell targeting peptides) and functional matrix materials (e.g. bioabsorbable polymers, stimuli responsive matrices, etc).
PRINT particles are presently being designed to reach new understandings and therapies in cancer prevention, diagnosis and treatment. Early detection via targeted delivery of the imaging agent goes hand in hand with these new directions. Cellular targeting can be accomplished by attaching cell-specific ligands to the surface of the PRINT particle. Potential cell-specific ligands include the integrin receptor peptide (GRGDSP), melanocyte stimulating hormone, vasoactive intestional peptide, anti-Her2 mouse antibodies, cell-penetrating peptides, and a variety of vitamins.
Once targeted with a cell specific ligand, the PRINT particle can be delivered and imaged at the desired site. In this respect, PRINT particles promise great potential, since it is possible to utilize the ability to specifically target, be shape and size-specific, possess tunable matrixes, as well as the ability to incorporate imaging contrast agents. The PRINT technology from our lab is playing an integral part in the NIH PPG as well as the newly awarded Carolina Cancer Center of Nanotechnology Excellence Grants.
