It was my first time here and I live here. After hearing such GREAT reviews, I decided to try it! My waitress was Lynette and very attentive and made our visit a pleasant experience. I was not as pleased with the food however. There is a great selection and the shrimp and oysters were good. I specifically go to seafood restaurants however for fried scallops and this was extremely disappointing to pay all that money for a meal I could not enjoy! The fried scallops are very small and heavily breaded. I do not believe they are scallops at all, but simply white fish as I become very ill when I eat white fish and last night was no exception. Very disappointed in meal. The restaurant itself is terrific, very organized and clean,and the staff is prompt and friendly. I was assured they had the best scallops and it must be these people have never had real scallops before in their lives. Just very disappointed!!!

We LOVED our meal! Our waitress was Brittany and she was so sweet and attentive. She explained that Calabash was NOT a chain, that it was a type of breading used on the food. After getting home and talking to others, it's clear that THIS Calabash Buffet (Surfside) is the best! Loved the crab legs. They were hot and we never had to wait for more. All the foods stations were clean and well stocked at all times. We will be back!

The buffet is great with a lot of variety. No end to the crab legs - they're terrific. My only problem is I brought 2 granddaughters. $30 for a 12 yr old and $15 for a 10 yr old. I doubt they ate $15 worth between them. I love it but still think it's a bit pricey.
By the way, the staff is great.

My family and I never fail to make this a stop on our yearly beach visits. The food is as good as it gets and they have the best service of any restaurant I have ever eaten in. I see people mention the wait time here, but I've waited longer for food that wasn't even in Crabby Mike's caliber. I feel like the fact that people are willing to wait for the food here should speak for itself. There are a lot of other seafood buffets nearby with no wait times, yet people are willing to wait a bit to eat here. So what should that tell you? It's the best!

My family had the best experience of our twenty years of visiting Myrtle Beach. We decided to go to Crabby Mike's after passing it several times while we vacationed. Wow is all I can say. From the quality of the food to the best staff we have ever had the pleasure to interact with. Chandler was absolutely superb. All in all we have never ever had such a good experience while dinning out. It made the entire vacation more enjoyable and memorable. I asked to see the highest manger just so I could compliment in person, and low and behold we actually got to meet Mike. I can see why this restaurant is so successful, with leadership like Mike's and just the quality of associates he has chosen to represent the restaurant, it is a recipe for success. I will never pass up the chance to dine at Crabby Mike's on our future visits to Myrtle Beach. A+++ Mike and Staff.

Researchers Now Have a Myriad of...
Keep the Opportunities, Lose the Opportunists
Loss of Lives in Clinical Trials...
Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity
Qiagen and Abbott are joining forces to fortify their testing menus for automated in vitro diagnostics in the U.S. and Canada. Qiagen will receive kits for a PCR-based molecular assay for HIV-1 viral load testing in the U.S. and Canada. The firm expects to make the test available by 2012, and they will be commercialized under the Qiagen brand.
Additionally, Abbott will provide a quantitative HCV test that will be optimized and labeled for use on Qiagen's QIAsymphony RGQ instrument and marketed under the Abbott brand in the U.S. and Canada. Subject to regulatory approval, this test may be available by the end of 2012.
Qiagen will also supply Abbott with certain key products required for a PCR-based HPV test in the U.S. and Canada. It will run on Abbott's m2000 lab automation system, which features throughput of up to 96 samples per run.
Qiagen will continue development of HPV molecular diagnostics based on its QIAensemble platform, which is designed to process up to 2,000 samples per shift. These HPV screening assays are not subject to the transaction.
Qiagen's QIAsymphony RGQ system was launched last month with assays including HIV, HBV, and HCV. It is registered for clinical use in European markets. Commenting on the transaction, Qiagen's CEO, Peer Schatz, says, "It has the potential to significantly accelerate our dissemination strategy for the QIAsymphony RGQ by expanding our molecular diagnostic menu offering in the United States with important testing options.
"It also allows us to commercialize previously unused intellectual property around a PCR design for HPV assays by converting it into revenue and by targeting it into a clearly defined sub-segment of the market," Schatz continues. "And, finally, it enables both parties to address the different market segments for HPV and thereby promises to further drive market adoption of this important testing method in North America."
Tests for HIV and HCV are currently among the most widely used commercial applications in molecular diagnostics, with U.S. markets estimated to be in the range of $180/$140 million in annual sales, respectively, according to the companies.
Qiagen's portfolio currently includes FDA-approved assays for HPV (digene HPV) and chlamydia as well as CE-labeled tests for the detection of HIV, HCV, HBV, cytomegalovirus (CMV), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), herpes-simplex virus (HSV), influenza, multiple bacteria and respiratory viruses, and personalized healthcare assays like KRAS and EGFR.
Abbott offers a broad menu of tests on its m2000 system outside the U.S., including tests for HIV viral load, hepatitis B and C viral load, hepatitis C genotyping, chlamydia, gonorrhea, HPV, CMV, EBV, and methylated septin 9 (mS9) for colorectal cancer. Tests approved in the U.S. include those for HIV, HBV, chlamydia, and gonorrhea.

Felony charge dismissed against Mount Holly manMay 02,2013Deadly weapon
charge dropped
Rutland County prosecutors have dismissed a Mount Holly mans charge of assault with a deadly weapon.
Months after Nathan M. Turco, 35, was charged with the felony offense, prosecutors dropped the charge as part of a plea deal in which Turco pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of simple assault.
Turco also admitted to violating his probation for a prior offense and was sentenced in March to serve 111 days in jail with credit for time served, according to court records.
Vermont State Police arrested Turco in November after an incident at a home on Shunpike Road in Mount Holly, where a 17-year-old told police that Turco held a knife to his throat and threatened him.
Prosecutors did not explain in court filings why the felony assault charge was dropped.MORE IN This Just In

I just installed the last update of the plugin on multiple sites and... I can't access my admin panel anymore, on any of them. At first I didn't see anything was wrong, because I was connected to the admin panel. Without disconnecting, when I came back later, I discovered it disconnected me automaticaly. I wasn't able to access the admin panel anymore (I can access login page, but even when providing username and password, I'm stuck on the login page).
Tried renaming the plugin folder, doesn't work. Tried removing htaccess files (in the root and in the wp-admin folder), doesn't work. Tried deleting cache and cookies of my browser, doesn't work. Tried to put htaccess files from a backup, doesn't work. For now I'm just hopping I won't have to put back a bunch of backups. Sites themselves are working well.
Must say I use Better WP Security plugin too, I updated it too. So what can I do now? Please help me!

In silver lining news: the latest report from the U.S. National Park Service has found that increases in global temperature could boost tourism traffic to national parks from Alaska to Guam.
The report, released this week in the open access journal PLoS ONE, compared historical monthly mean air temperature information with data on park visitation between 1979 and 2013 at 340 parks. The team, led by natural resource scientist Nicholas Fisichelli, then contrasted projected future visitations between 2041 and 2060 with two climate-warming scenarios.
The result? Warmer temperatures put people in the mood to get outside. Visitation to America's national parks (Read more…)

Ed. note: This article has been republished with permission from Logodesignlove.com.
Logo design should not be approached with the goal of filling that
blank spot on the top of your letterhead. It is not the time to
recklessly do something trendy and cool. Most importantly, it is not
about getting a task off your to-do list so you can move on to selling
widgets to your customers.
The logo design process should provide value far beyond the delivery
of a symbol.
Many logos however are being sold simply as a graphic. Crowdsourcing
and online logo warehouses make the purchase quick and easy with little
need for any true understanding. Both the client and "designer" are
released from investing in developing a deep understanding of brand,
strategy, marketing and design principles.
By removing the requirement of understanding, logos can be sold as if
they themselves are widgets with plug-and-play compatibility — a
generic product that can be applied to whoever wants it.
Logo design should always be considered as part of a larger brand
strategy. It is an opportunity to develop cohesive and consistent
messaging tailored to a specific set of customers. To accomplish this
requires customization, knowledge and skill. It demands that design is
viewed as a service and not a product. It requires strategy.
Without a complete and well thought out strategy, you can't
successfully influence where a company is heading. A bank won't hand
money to a company that operates without a strategy, and, over time,
neither will customers. They will choose to buy from a company with a
solid strategy, a consistent message, and a defined direction — one with
a strong brand.
While a graphic designer can help with the nurturing, a logo alone is
not the solution to developing a strong brand. This strength can only
come from understanding. The company must understand their business,
competition, market space, preferences, trends, strengths, weaknesses,
and most importantly why customers should care about them.
Understanding goes the other way, too. If their customers can't
understand what it is that makes the company unique and why they should
care, then they cannot develop a connection. No connection, no strength.
One of the greatest values a graphic designer can provide is the
ability to successfully translate this understanding into a visual
Online logo warehouses and crowdsourcing put the onus on the client
to ask the right questions, to validate the answers, and to translate
that information into the selection of a graphic. In doing so, they
remove the most critical part of any identity project — the focus on
developing an understanding.
A graphic designer must provide a bridge of understanding between a
company and its audience. They must ask the right questions, pushing the
client for authenticity. They must then validate the responses, making
sure there are no gaps in understanding or differences in thinking. They
must provide direction and guidance built on strategy.
Logo sweatshops and crowdsourcing websites pretend this "little
detail" has no value. They thrive on clients believing a logo is only
meant to fill an empty space.
No. You need an identity built on understanding, and the cornerstone
for that is a logo. At the end of the logo design process you want:
1. A Creative Brief. A document derived from answers to hard
questions. Developing the creative brief is vital to solidifying
direction, objectives, audience and tone. In almost all cases, this is
not an easy document to create.
2. A Partner. The designer should become part of your team. They
should be available to provide support and advice throughout the project
and into the future. As a partner, they must remain aware of your
evolving brand and how best to leverage it.
3. A Logo. The obvious deliverable, the logo is part of a larger
branding strategy and must meet all technical and creative requirements
for the foreseeable future.
4. A Roadmap. You need to be armed with a strong sense of where the
visual brand is heading and how it integrates with your marketing plans.
At a minimum, this may be in the form of guidelines for the use of
color, fonts and the logo itself, but often involves mock-ups of the
brand in action.
Yes, but you receive better value. Hiring a graphic designer ensures
there is a solid foundation for your visual brand built on
understanding. This is certainly worth more than a graphic that looks
cool but leaves you floating with a hollow and unauthentic reflection of
your brand.
The most loved brands, the ones that last, are authentic. They are
not a cheap veneer that peels away over time. Authenticity requires
understanding. Understanding requires experience. Experience requires

Gov. Andrew Cuomo's widely reported job-creation editorial Sunday is being interpreted as a sign he'll carry the flag for a constitutional change that could legalize casino gambling in New York and one day lead to a full-service Catskill casino.
But the governor's one-paragraph pronouncements on the need for "a comprehensive gaming plan" and "destination gaming locations" reveals nothing about his plan.
State Sen. John Bonacic, R-C-Mount Hope and Assemblywoman Aileen Gunther, D-C-Forestburgh, both of whom represent the Town of Thompson where a casino would likely be located, said the governor hasn't revealed anything specific to them — like how many casinos Cuomo would be willing to support and where.
Bonacic, R-C-Mount Hope, as chairman of the Senate's Racing, Gaming and Wagering Committee and Judiciary Committee, would be a key figure in crafting any future proposal.
"Casino gaming in traditional resort areas can create jobs in the Catskills," Bonacic said on Monday.
"I look forward to seeing exactly what the Governor is proposing, and to finally delivering casino gaming to the Catskills."
The New York Gaming Association, a coalition of New York racinos, wants an amendment that would allow for slots and live table games at Aqueduct and eight racinos, including Empire Resorts' Monticello Casino & Raceway.
The association was encouraged by Cuomo's remarks. "We are pleased to hear of Governor Cuomo's support for legalizing enhanced gaming in New York State, which will create tens of thousands of much-needed jobs, generate hundreds of millions in additional state revenues and stimulate significant private sector investment," said Association Executive Director Michael Wilton in a prepared statement.
New York only allows on-reservation Indian casino gaming and lottery-style slots machines at the racinos.
Even with a popular governor's backing, a constitutional change would not be easy. Sullivan developers and leaders tried for a dozen years to land Indian casinos, believing this route was more realistic.
Gunther, D-C-Forestburgh, who sits on the Assembly's Racing and Wagering committee, said on Friday that a constitutional amendment has a better chance of succeeding with Cuomo's support, and with the state's troubled economy and deficit.
Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver and Senate Majority leader Dean Skelos support the idea as a way of generating tax revenue. The earliest a referendum could be scheduled would be 2013.

UNDATED (AP) - It appears Craigslist may have surrendered in the legal fight over erotic ads posted on its website.
The online ad site has shut down its adult services section and replaced it with a black bar that simply says "censored."
The move comes just over a week after a group of state attorneys general wrote in a letter that Craigslist should remove the section because it couldn't adequately block potentially illegal ads promoting prostitution and child trafficking.
It's not clear if the closure is permanent, and it appears to only effect Craigslist ads in the United States.
Craigslist's adult services section carried ads for everything from personal massages to a night's companionship, which critics say veered into prostitution. But the company has maintained the site was carrying ads tamer than those published by some newspapers.

Nuns Gather to Plot Response to Vatican Crackdown
As hundreds of nuns met in St. Louis on Wednesday to begin crafting an answer to Vatican demands that their leaders toe the line on orthodoxy, there was a pervasive sense that this week's discussions could lead to a fateful juncture in the history of Catholicism in America.
"As you know, this is an assembly like no other assembly we've had," said Sister Pat Farrell, a Franciscan from Iowa who heads the Leadership Conference of Women Religious, which represents most of the 56,000 nuns in communities across the country.
"I suspect we're in for a lot of surprises," Farrell told the sisters as she opened the LCWR's annual meeting.
The options under consideration by the 900 nuns — several hundred more than have attended recent gatherings — range from asking the Vatican to continue the dialogue to shuttering the LCWR and reorganizing the leadership body of sisters into a group that would be beyond the Vatican's control.
But that would also signal a historic shift in a church in which the nuns for centuries simply did the work that the bishops preached about — serving the poor, caring for the sick, and educating the young.

Background: This case–control study aimed to identify the risk factors for oral cancer in patients aged 45 years and under.
Methods: Patients were recruited over a 3-year period between 1999 and 2001 from 14 hospitals in the southeast of England, UK.
Results: Fifty-three (80%) newly diagnosed patients with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the oral cavity participated. The mean age of cases at diagnosis was 38.5 years (SD = 7.0) and 53% were male. Patients were interviewed about main risk factors of tobacco, alcohol, cannabis and their consumption of fresh fruit and vegetables in the past. Ninety-one matched control patients were also recruited. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were obtained from adjusted conditional logistic analyses. Significantly elevated ORs were evidenced amongst males who had started to smoke under the age of 16 years (OR = 14.3; 95% CI: 1.1–178.8). A significant reduction in risk was also shown for ex-smokers (OR = 0.2; 95% CI: 0.5–0.8). Consumption of alcohol in excess of recommended amounts also produced an eightfold risk in males (OR = 8.1; 95% CI: 1.6–40.1) and over a fourfold risk of oral cancer from the consumption of excessive amounts of alcohol and having ever smoked (OR = 4.4; 95% CI: 1.1–17.7).
Conclusion: The study shows that the traditional behavioural risk factors are present in younger people diagnosed with oral cancer. The relatively short duration of exposure and the substantial number of cases without any known risk factors, particularly amongst females, however, suggest that factors other than tobacco and alcohol may also be implicated in the development of oral cancer in a proportion of these younger patients.

We reveal a new statistical variability phenomenon in bulk n-channel metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors scaled down to 18-nm physical gate length. Rare but dramatic on-current degradation is observed in 3-D simulations of large ensembles of transistors that are subject to random dopant fluctuations. Physically, it originates from the random compensation of donors (from the source or drain extension) and acceptors (from halo implants) around the access regions to the channel, leading to mobile charge starvation, dramatic increase in the access resistance, and corresponding current collapse. The estimated frequency of occurrence of the phenomenon is higher than one in a hundred for a square device and higher than 10-4 for two-times-wider devices, as demonstrated by simulations of 10 000-device ensembles.

Comments about 'Teens struggle to squeeze into the job market'

As a former business owner, a pizza place, I couldn't hire teens for the most part. Child Labor laws forbade teen delivery drivers under 18, no teens using the mixer either and no teen younger than 16 around the oven or the dough roller. In a small town I employed between 4 and 10 part time employees. All of these jobs should have been filled by teens who wanted to work instead I had to hire people who were over 18 and pay them a minimum wage that Nancy Pelosi made sure was so high that my small business wasn't profitable enough to justify the many hours and effort to keep it open. (So much for job creation) Too much government regulation and not enough common sense once again destroys opportunity along with the economy.

To Cinncinatus:
Provo has the highest teem EMPLOYMENT rate ("Provo, Utah, has the highest teen employment rate in the United States with about 49 percent of people aged 16 to 19 finding jobs, Hartford Business reported.")
This is a shockingly strong argument for less government intrusion and price control in labor markets. Teens in Provo should have a very difficult time finding work relative to their peers nationwide given the competition for part-time work from tens of thousands of college students in town. Instead, Provo has some of the lowest teen unemployment in the nation!
Likely drivers of Provo's strong job market? 1) Young, growing demographics. 2) Entrepreneurism: A lot of teens work for highly entrepreneurial businesses - I know a lot of them in town. 3) A right to work state keeps costs of hiring and firing down, so employers have less risk. 4) A fiscally conservative state that gets out of the way of business (the libs hate this, but it is a key driver of a strong economy). 5) Demand for jobs driven by families who can't afford for the children to sit at home and play video games, and 6) a strong work ethic in the local culture.

The giant elephant in the room everyone is tap-dancing around is the fact that illegal aliens -- often working for EVEN LESS than minimum wage -- now are taking a great many of the jobs once performed by American teenagers. The numerous calls we're seeing for LOWERING the minimum wage -- and even suspending child labor laws(!) -- points to the pure avarice and greed which has become such a prominent part of commerce in Utah.

I agree with many others that this has a lot to do with minimum wage. Without the minimum wage, companies would be willing to create more entry level jobs. With more jobs available, there would be greater competition for employees, which is done using wages. Yes, many jobs will not pay much, but a teenager living at home with his parents doesn't necessarily need that much. You can always find people who have to struggle, and hopefully they would be able to work their way up to be able to make more, but the more people try to regulate the free market, the greater the unintended consequences. The free market is not perfect, but it does tend to even itself out.

Psychotherapy for Borderline Personality / Edition 1by John F. Clarkin, Frank E. Yeomans, Otto F. Kernberg, Otto F. Kernberg
Pub. Date: 02/02/2004
Publisher: Wiley

As any psychotherapist who treats borderline patients knows, entering the fray in an effort to help
Psychotherapy for Borderline Personality Working with a severely reduced emotional palette, the borderline personality inhabits a stark world populated by comic book heroes and villains, victims and destroyers, saints and serpents, endlessly vying for dominance. As any psychotherapist who treats borderline patients knows, entering the fray in an effort to help establish harmony among the warring factions is an undertaking fraught with danger. Even the canniest therapist is at risk of being drawn into the seductive whirlwind of shifting roles and power struggles, only to become another unwitting agent of chaos. What is needed, then, is an approach that provides sufficient clinical structure to contain the destructive forces that can undermine the therapeutic process while remaining flexible enough to allow the therapist the freedom to safely interact with and respond constructively to the roles thrust upon him or her by the patient. This groundbreaking book describes such an approachtransference focused psychotherapy (TFP). TFP is a sophisticated new variant of psychodynamic interventions centering on the analysis of the transference. Its main goal is to bring a patient's unconscious conflicts to the surface so that they can be actively worked through by the client and therapist within a rigorous clinical framework. In Psychotherapy for Borderline Personality, the authors describe TFP principles and methods and provide clear guidelines on how to apply them to individual patients on a session-by-session basis. With the help of numerous vignettes and case examples, they clearly outline the various stages of the TFP therapeutic process, from initial assessment to termination. Readers learn techniques for seeing past the wall of behavioral and cognitive dissonance typically thrown up by the borderline patient and to identify and label a patient's radically conflicting self-conceptions and object representations. They learn how to immerse themselves in the turbulent currents of the borderline narrative stream, while, at the same time, maintaining the clinical distance required to be a constructive force in their patients' lives. And they learn how to get patients to relax their defenses, to become active participants in the process of reconciling the warring factions within, and to find the courage to appreciate themselves and others in their full complexity as human beings. An elegantly humane yet clinically rigorous approach to interventions with one of the most challenging categories of personality disorders, Psychotherapy for Borderline Personality is an important professional resource for all mental health professionals.

I have a humble Brother HL-1110 monochrome laser printer with 1MB of RAM. That's pretty short and, in the beginning, I thought I was only going to be able to print plain text documents or small PDF documents because laser printers need to store the entire page in their memory before they actually print it.
But, for some reason, this doesn't seem to be the case. Many of my prints are well above 1MB, and some are at around 40MB per page (at least that's what CUPS claims to be the case).
I'm very glad I can print large documents but I'm also confused. Presumably, my printer should run out of memory; but it doesn't. Why is that?

I have a need to load the 2 jQuery javascripts on every page load on the backend. I see that it's included within the wp-includes/script-loader.php under the default_scripts function but am at a loss on how to get it to kick like the fat.js script does.
Currently debugging but I was hoping someone could drop me a hint.
I'm assuming that I could just add in teh call manually to the admin-header.php file but wouldn't that cause a conflict?

The average age of someone who has cosmetic surgery is 41. Younger people tend to have nose reshaping, known as rhinoplasty, breast enhancement, and liposuction. Older people have more facelifts, breast lifts, and eyelid surgery.
Breast enhancement is the most common cosmetic surgery among women. Other popular cosmetic surgeries in women include liposuction, breast reduction, tummy tuck, and cosmetic eyelid surgery.
Breast implants don't last forever. Women who get them are likely to need more surgeries to repair implant ruptures and take care of other complications, like breast pain, the FDA says. They may also decide they want adjustments of size, wrinkling or rippling, etc.
Implants can hide some breast tissue from X-rays, making it harder to test for breast cancer. If you have implants, keep getting mammograms. Tell the people doing the test that you have them, and make sure the testers have experience doing mammograms on women with implants.
They may need to do your test a different way, pushing the implant back against the chest and pulling breast tissue forward for a better view.
Liposuction is the most common cosmetic surgery procedure performed on men. Other popular cosmetic surgeries for men include nose reshaping, cosmetic eyelid surgery, male breast reduction, and cosmetic ear surgery.
Men had more than 750,000 cosmetic procedures in 2010, about 8% of all cosmetic surgeries (compared with 8.6 million for women). That may sound like a small percentage, but it represents an 88% jump since 1997.
No special approval (the official term is "board certification") is required to perform cosmetic surgery in the United States. But it's a good thing to look for in a surgeon. Make sure yours has the OK of the American Board of Cosmetic Surgery.
Many cosmetic surgery procedures can be done without you being admitted to the hospital. Occasionally, the surgeon may suggest an overnight stay. Patients should not stay alone for the first day or two after surgery.
It tends to take longer to recover from cosmetic surgery procedures on the lower body. Recovery times are measured in weeks for thigh lifts (2 to 4 weeks) and lower body lifts (4 to 6 weeks). Lower body lifts -- intended to tighten loose, sagging skin in the buttocks, hips, and thighs -- can take up to eight hours to perform and are one of the most expensive cosmetic surgeries.
Body dysmorphic disorder is a mental condition in which people can't stop worrying about minor or imagined physical flaws. Cosmetic surgery can be a problem, because they are likely to be unhappy with the results and seek additional operations. Patients said to be addicted to cosmetic surgery are often suffering from body dysmorphic disorder.

PerkinElmer received 510K clearance from the FDA for GSP™ - Genetic Screening Processor, which will be used as part of newborn screening programs. The system is an automated platform that quantitatively and qualitatively analyzes blood spot samples for irregularities associated with metabolic diseases.
PerkinElmer reports that the GSP Neonatal TSH assay is the first such assay to receive FDA approval. Several additional newborn screening assays are in development.
The GPS platform allows labs to run more than one test simultaneously on very small blood samples. This multianalyte capability also preserves the small sample volume for a wider range of analysis. Additionally, the processor has the ability to run traditional immunoassays or enzymatic assays.
With multianalyte capabilities and a twofold capacity over prior systems, it delivers increased efficiency and flexibility over other methods while reducing the risk of errors associated with manual processing of samples, PerkinElmer points out. Additionally, the GSP analyzer eliminates the need to analyze samples in batches, permitting specimens to be processed as they arrive in the laboratory.
The GSP performs each stage of the assay process, from the retrieval of the sample plate to sample measurement and reporting of results, in a single platform. This improves operational efficiency and reduces hands-on time, according to PerkinElmer. Results are also barcoded, decreasing the risk of human error.
Other design features that address common laboratory challenges include the ability to continuously load samples, refrigeration of onboard reagents, and integration of direct access to water and waste lines.

MDMA (commonly known as the empathogen "ecstasy") is classified as a Schedule 1 drug, which is reserved for compounds with no accepted medical use and a high abuse potential. Two researchers from Stanford, however, call for a rigorous scientific exploration of MDMA's effects to identify precisely how the drug works, the data from which could be used to develop therapeutic compounds.Do you agree that ecstasy should be studied for its potential therapeutic benefits?
