Scientific Discipline
Chemical Biology
Host Institution
Stanford University
Current Position
Carolyn Bertozzi also holds the Anne T. and Robert M. Bass Professorship in the School of Humanities and Sciences at Stanford University and, by courtesy, is a professor of chemical & systems biology and radiology.
Chemical Glycobiology and Bioorthogonal Chemistry
Although sugar often gets a bad rap in the popular press, some sugars actually play beneficial roles in the human body. For example, the sugar molecules that stud cell surfaces control how those cells interact with their surroundings. Cells add sugars to proteins or other molecules through a process called glycosylation. Changes in glycosylation occur during normal development, but these changes are also associated with cancer, inflammation, bacterial infection, and other illnesses. Carolyn Bertozzi's lab team is developing chemical tools and strategies for probing glycosylation in biological systems, in hopes that these technologies will open new avenues for diagnosing and treating disease.
Some of the lab's approaches fall in the realm of bioorthogonal chemistry – a field Bertozzi is credited with founding – which allows researchers to chemically modify molecules in living cells without interfering with native biochemical processes. In one technique developed by Bertozzi's team, cells are "tricked" into using artificial sugars as carbohydrate building blocks. Once the artificial molecule gets incorporated into the cell's usual collection of surface carbohydrates, the researchers use a nontoxic chemical reaction to attach small organic labels to it. Bertozzi and her colleagues have used this method to label and image carbohydrates in animal cells to see how sugar modifications change during aging and disease progression.
Certain types of sugar changes have also been identified as hallmarks of cancer, and the magnitude of glycosylation often correlates with a tumor's aggressiveness. To better understand the functional significance of these changes, Bertozzi's lab is engineering cancer-associated sugars on the surface of cellular membranes. With this approach the researchers have discovered that certain carbohydrates help tumor cells evade surveillance by innate immune cells. Her group is also exploring possible cancer therapy approaches that override these carbohydrate immune evasion tactics.
Grants from the National Institutes of Health provided partial support for these projects.
Carolyn Bertozzi is exploring ways to reengineer cell surfaces with the goal of controlling the cells' interactions. Ultimately, her work may allow investigators to target cancer cells for diagnosis and treatment, for example, or to detect pathogenic bacteria in biological fluid samples.
Although Bertozzi grew up immersed in science – her father was a nuclear physicist at MIT, where she attended summer day camps and later had summer jobs – she seriously considered a career in music (having won awards for compositions and accompanying musicals during her high-school years) before her leanings toward math and science won out. As a Harvard undergrad biology major, Bertozzi discovered the thrill of organic chemistry during her sophomore year. "I wouldn't go out on weekends because I just wanted to read the book and see if I could work the problems," she says. Realizing her calling, she switched her major to chemistry and graduated summa cum laude.
Today, Bertozzi's research is centered on glycosylation – the normal cellular process by which sugars are added to proteins or other molecules. For more than 20 years, scientists have known that changes in glycosylation are associated with cancer, inflammation, bacterial infection, and other illnesses. Bertozzi reasoned that if she could develop a way to monitor glycosylation and measure it quickly, simply, and noninvasively, the results would deepen researchers' understanding of how cell surface sugars contribute to both health and illness and could open avenues for diagnosing and treating disease.
Toward this goal, she and her colleagues developed a chemical reaction that adds a marker molecule to cell surface sugars, a technique they refined for use in living animals. Their innovative approach uses reagents that react with one another but not with naturally occurring cell surface molecules. Thus, the reagents do not interfere with the sugars' ability to carry out their normal signaling functions. Bertozzi's team has used the reaction to attach tracers to sugar molecules on cell surfaces in mice. The sugars they targeted are produced in elevated amounts by cancer cells and by inflamed cells.
The team's work suggests that this technique could potentially be used to attach tracers to diseased cells in patients, allowing doctors to pinpoint location of the cells in the body and perhaps even target therapy. The techniques developed by Bertozzi also are being used in the biopharmaceutical industry to generate engineered protein drugs including antibody-drug conjugates.
Bertozzi's enthusiasm for her research and her talent for communicating science in the classroom has been recognized with multiple teaching awards. She likens teaching to telling a story, and her goal for each lecture is to tell a memorable anecdote. For example, in the class she teaches most frequently, an introductory chemistry course for nonchemistry majors, she explains that her philosophy is to "recapture in each lecture the thrill I felt when it was revealed to me that molecules are as diverse as human beings."

WASHINGTON (AP) - The new House speaker signaled Wednesday that Republicans might exceed spending limits enacted two years ago with President Clinton, placing the GOP in the politically ticklish position of evading strictures aimed at shrinking government.
"I'm not saying we're going to bust them or not bust them," Speaker Dennis Hastert, R-Ill., told reporters.
Some top Republican aides went further, saying that in private consultations, the House GOP seemed to be moving toward surpassing the spending limits for fiscal 2000 by billions of dollars. The aides said no decision has been made.
The budget Clinton sent Congress this month claimed to obey the limits for fiscal 2000, which begins Oct. 1. But Republicans have accused him of breaking those caps by paying for extra expenditures with higher tobacco taxes, user fees and other savings.
The spending issue is among several in which Clinton's budget attempts to corner Republicans as Congress begins crafting a 2000 budget. Clinton has pro
Associated Press

posed using hundreds of billions of dollars in projected budget surpluses to shore up Social Security and Medicare, two widely supported programs, daring Republicans to use some of that money for tax cuts.
"He has a habit of trying to put us in a box on every issue," said Rep. Saxby Chambliss, RGa., a senior member of the House Budget Committee. "We've just got to work through it."
For years, Republicans have made reducing the size of government a philosophical tenet. They won billions in cuts after taking control of Congress in 1995, but spending has since crept upward. Last fall, they acceded to Clinton's demands for extra spending and added some increases of their own to produce a session-ending measure that exceeded 1999 budget limits by $20 billion.
Many Republicans are concerned that staying within spending limits for 2000 would entail cutting popular programs and perhaps prompt a budget fight with Clinton. In addition, both parties want to boost the Pentagon's budget, making it even harder to stay within spending limits.
"The world changes every day," said Rep. Jerry Lewis, R-Calif., chairman of the House Appropriations Committee's subcommittee that oversees military spending. "We can't pretend we're operating in a rigid forum."
The 1997 budget-balancing pact enacted by Clinton and the GOP-controlled Congress would limit discretionary spending in 2000 to $536 billion, or less than one-third of next year's $1.77 trillion budget. Discretionary spending covers all defense and domestic programs, excluding benefits such as Social Security and Medicare, plus interest on the national debt.
That budget deal, designed to balance the budget by 2002, squeezed tighter and tighter on spending with each passing year. Both sides conceded at the time that it would be tough to obey its requirements.
Budget analysts say that 1999 spending is so high that it would take $10 billion in cuts just to stay within that 2000 cap. And that excludes any increases in spending for defense, education and some other programs favored by many members of both parties.
The move toward increasing the limits is far from unanimous among Republicans.
"I'm in favor of keeping the caps," said Rep. Ray LaHood, R-Ill. "I think that's the one thing our party does stand for."
But many other Republicans believe an early decision to exceed the limits would be a bow to the inevitable. They say the high spending level set by last fall's budget bill made it virtually impossible to stay within the limits set for 2000.
They also say surpassing the limits now would inflict minimal political damage on the party and avoid an autumn spending showdown with Clinton like last year's. Their capitulation to many of Clinton's spending demands angered many conservatives and hurt the GOP in last November's voting, many Republicans say.
Rep. John Kasich, R-Ohio, chairman of the House Budget Committee, plans to propose a 2000 budget on March 17. Asked if a decision on exceeding the limits had been reached, Chambliss said, "We haven't solved that question yet."
Senate Budget Committee Chairman Pete Domenici, R-N.M., is also crafting a budget, and there are similar pressures in the Senate to exceed the spending limits.
"The budget caps should be lifted," said Sen. Arlen Specter, R-Pa., chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee subcommittee that controls health and education programs. "The president should show some leadership."

The following story originally appeared in NEI's Nuclear Energy Overview.
The tsunami that brought about the nuclear accident at Japan's Fukushima Daiichi facility was not adequately accounted for in the facility's design basis, said a co-author of a report for the American Nuclear Society.
Michael Corradini, co-chair of the ANS' special committee on Fukushima, told the National Academy of Sciences this week that the March 11, 2011, tsunami that disabled the nuclear power plant was not entirely unforeseen, because larger tsunamis have occurred in that region of Japan in recorded history.
Corradini said the historical tsunami threat would have been incorporated into the design basis for a similarly situated U.S. facility.
In describing the accident at Fukushima Daiichi, Corradini stressed that the units withstood the earthquake but not the tsunami, though both events exceeded the site's design basis. "The safety systems survived the earthquake and operated quite normally," Corradini said. "Following by 45 minutes or an hour, the tsunami … took out the safety systems."
He added that Japan's nuclear regulator is being restructured in part because of its failure to establish the proper design basis of the Fukushima Daiichi plant.
Corradini, who chairs the University of Wisconsin's nuclear engineering program, said the report he co-authored with former NRC Chairman Dale Klein gathers publicly available details to provide "a clean and concise explanation of the events surrounding the accident."
He said that safety benefits can be achieved in different ways and that site-specific factors—such as the risk of large tsunamis at Fukushima—must be taken into account in the design of a nuclear power plant.
The full report can be found on the ANS website here. The site also provides appendices and answers to frequently asked questions about the accident and its aftermath.

A heart-shaped gold pendant found in the Bog of Allen and a hoard of gold ornaments unearthed outside Castledermot are reckoned to be at least two thousand years old. The coming of Christianity brought much prosperity to the county, not least when St Bridget's Cathedral in Kildare town became a great centre of worship for pilgrims.

Hi everyone,
it's my first post here and I would need some help. I'm a modeller and recently changed my sony DSCW-17 for a Canon SD850 (Ixus 950 here in Europe). All pics of my models are taken in manual mode (P), with: a tripod, macro on, tungsten light setting and without falsh . The issue I have with this new camera (that I never had with my good old sony) is the sharpness of pictures. Take a look (and don't laugh about the object
a pic taken with canon
and for comparison one taken some time ago with the sony (the only difference is the white background)
I know canon sd 850maybe it's not a perfect camera for that type of use but I use it also for standard family pictures and the one I had before was doing just great.
this canon camera really let me down as in all reviews I found it was just great.
I don't know if there is something I could do about getting sharper pics. I made a test with a borrowed Sony DSCW 120 last night and I didn't have any problem of sharpness at all.
thanks for your help

Topless model sent death threats from jealous wife after hubby ogled her for too long
A TOPLESS model felt the full fury of a jealous wife who sent her death threats because her husband couldn't stop staring at pictures of her.
The unnamed 51-year-old woman from St Galler in Switzerland was reportedly furious when her husband not only rushed out to grab the morning paper to look at the girls, but was also one of those that voted topless model Jil as the Blick newspaper girl of the year in 2012.
A court heard that as a result she has started sending threatening letters to the editor insisting she be dropped.
In the letter she wrote: "I don't want to see any more naked breasts in the paper.
"Otherwise you're going to find them with their throats cut on a rubbish dump somewhere."
Other letters were sent to various journalists on the newspaper as well as the publishing house – and to topless model Jil herself, who the woman seemed to have a special hatred for.
"Just on the off chance that you decide to turn up topless in Blick again, we are going to kill you"Letter to model
Jil was voted girl of the year in 2012 and shortly after that she got a note saying: "Jil, do you know that you are a dirty little w****."
In another letter she wrote: "Just on the off chance that you decide to turn up topless in Blick again, we are going to kill you.
"We know who you are and what your daily routine is."
It then threatened that a contract killer had been hired and spoke about a bloodbath which will also include the entire editorial team.
Also put under pressure was XL-Media AG, which advertised with the sex shop label Libosan in the daily Swiss newspaper.They were told to either stop the adverts otherwise there was going to be a bloodbath in one of their branches.
XL Company boss Thomas Scheurer said: "One gets used to a bit of criticism but this letter was so hostile it was almost embarrassing."
It was only after an intensive police investigation and two years of hate mail that the 51-year-old woman was finally arrested and her motive revealed – jealousy at the fact her husband was looking at the partially naked women in the newspaper.
She admitted it and apologised, and was convicted on charges of making threats, insults and falsifying documents as well as driving while drunk in charge of a mountain bike causing an accident with a car.
She was ordered to pay a fine or serve 120 days in prison.
She can still appeal the verdict.

 [[Image:Owasp_logo_normal.jpg|right]]Social networking and mobility are two of four forces found in "Gartners Predicts 2012: Four Forces Combine to Transform the IT Landscape special report (http://www.gartner.com/technology/research/predicts/)". We can personally attest to working with several businesses that have increased spending on developing mobile (IOS and Android) applications integrated with Facebook and Twitter presence to engage and interact their target audience. The convergence of two - Mobile applications using Facebook platform for authentication referrals, payments and twitter API to share ideas, opinions and status from within the application - introduces unique trust problems, data access and repudiation risks not planned for by most development teams.
The talk covers mobile application security, focusing on social media integration, for both IOS and Android. The two speakers - a security consultant assessing several mobile apps every month and principal security architect at a Fortune 500 responsible for mobile footprint security _ brings diverse insight and sometimes contradictory views to this talk. The audience will walk away with an understanding of mobile application risks on different platforms and how to successfully design a security program focused on developing mobile applications in a large organization, related to emerging threats with facebook and twitter integration. The talk will include live demonstration and interactive participation to keep the audience engaged.

The Best Astronomy Images of 2016 Are Truly Out of This World
The winners of the annual Insight Astronomy Photographer of the Year have been announced. From eerie eclipses through to battered lunar landscapes, these images are an absolute treat.
The winners of the annual Insight Astronomy Photographer of the Year have been announced. From eerie eclipses through to battered lunar landscapes, these images are an absolute treat.
Thirty seconds into watching this video, my face already hurt from smiling too much.
Artist Anthony Petrie thinks the pop culture art scene has gotten a little stale. So many rehashes of the same ideas, same properties, with the same old techniques. This is art! Do something different! Be bold! And with his upcoming solo show—and a little help from the Predator—he's doing just that.
Many people consider themselves big Star Wars fans. But how many of those people not only have a ton of creativity, but the guts to put it out there for the world to see? This California resident is all that and then some.
We're only a few days away from the day Marty and Doc arrived in 2015 and things are about to get very Back to the Future. Online, in stores, basically everywhere, fans will soon be celebrating the great film series.
One of the most striking things about Mad Max: Fury Road is the insane palette, full of rich, bright primary colors. But director George Miller said if he'd had his way, the movie would have been in black and white. Now you can see what that would look like.
We've teased that the term "soft" landing is utterly inappropriate, but our latest video makes that painfully clear. The preparation, waving goodbye, and gentle undocking are a deceptive moment of calm before the parachutes fling open and the chaos begins.
I'm probably guiltier of hyperbole more than any other writer on this site, but please, please, please do not fail to watch this utterly unbelievable awesome version of that insane car chase from Mad Max: Fury Road, remade with go-karts, paintball guns, and shockingly high production values.
Yesterday, we learned that Disney is adding some absolutely massive Star Wars expansions to their Florida and California parks. Now here's a video showing the highlights of Bob Iger's keynote speech—along with more concept art that wasn't officially released.
Two of the biggest events so far this year were the release of Mad Max: Fury Road and a new trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens. What happens when you put those together, and throw in a lot of original trilogy stuff too? One of the coolest mashup videos we've seen in a long time.
Pretty much what it says on the tin, folks. "The Big Wind" is a colossal, roving fire-extinguisher of Hungarian design that combines one part T-34 Soviet tank with two parts MiG-21 turbine engine. Bring it all together, add a trio of operators, and you've got a Mad-Maxian chimera that can gush water at a rate of 220…
Sometimes the traffic on roads develops emergent properties, creating beautiful patterns you never realized were there.
Shaylee was busy playing with her toys on the couch when footage from one of NASA's Space Shuttle launches started playing on television. Anyone who's witnessed something as awe-inspiring as human spaceflight will surely identify with her sense of wonder. All together now: ISSAWOCKETSHIIIIIIIIP!
MAKE Magazine's Jeff Highsmith wanted to build his 4-year-old son an interactive model of an Apollo spacecraft. The result was the surprisingly complex play area seen here – but to really appreciate the thought and effort that went into this project, you really must watch the making-of video. Seriously, this'll blow…
Then again, maybe it wouldn't. After all, in a world where Frankfurt, Germany is home to an Imperial Starport, All Terrain walkers, Lambda-shuttles, TIE fighters, and even the occasional Star Destroyer might amount to little more than quotidian traffic on an airport apron.
If you don't already know why a helium balloon tethered to the floor of a minivan has the power to make your jaw drop, you're going to want to see this. Seriously – set aside five minutes of your time, have a seat and watch. You won't regret it.
This is genuinely incredible. Luca Iaconi-Stewart may just be the world's greatest paper-airplane-maker. Seriously – this guy's work makes your crease-and-fold creations look like utter child's play.
Artist Adam Magyar uses sophisticated software and high-speed camera rigs of his own design to capture beautifully haunting slow-motion footage of commuters, trains and passengers inside NYC's Grand Central Terminal.
In European cultures, we cremate our dead or bury them in a simple pine box. But coffins are a lot fancier in Ghana, where the Ga people believe that life continues in another world after death, and they want it to carry on in style. Here are some stunning examples of Ghana's famous coffin art.
Nautical trade routes stretch like so many lengths of string in this arresting visualization of intercontinental commerce in the 1800s. The map that emerges highlights not only several continents and their busiest ports, but the various trade winds that cycle through the lower reaches of Earth's atmosphere.

IMI, Expanding Plastics Business, Reaches Deal to Purchase Polypipe
LONDON -- IMI PLC emerged Thursday as the buyer of Polypipe PLC a day after the plastic pipes and drainage systems maker said it was in talks with an unnamed party.

Printable Gag Gifts to Download
Looking for free printable gag gifts? You've come to the right place!
These printables are the product of many silly evenings that my husband and I spent throwing around ideas and playing with our word processors and graphics programs.
We sacrificed at least a week's worth of social life to bring you these printable gag gifts. Well, maybe a week's worth of evening TV ;-) I hope you like them!
For more good gag gift ideas, make sure you also check out my homemade gag gifts page. If enjoyed these ideas and want to say thanks , or if you'd like to share printable gag gift ideas (or any gag gift ideas) of your own then I'd love to hear from you.

Free Printable Door Hangers
Click on any of the thumbnails below to download a full-size pdf of the printable door hanger design. Once you've printed it, glue it onto a piece of card and cut around the outline. Cereal box cardboard is about the right stiffness, but any sort of cardboard should do.
Depending on the size of door-knob, you can leave the top of the hanger as a loop rather than a hook. It will be stronger if you leave it as a loop. You could also make double-sided door hangers with two different designs. Perfect for loved ones with multiple personality disorders (kidding).
For those of you with a creative streak, you can also download this blank Microsoft Word template , and design your own printable door hangers . Have fun with it! If you come up with some good designs, let me know! You could post them up here and share (or inflict) your sense of humour :-) I'll give you full credit.
By the way, to view and print the full size door hangers, or any of the pdf printable gag gifts on this page, you'll need to have Adobe Acrobat Reader (free) installed on your computer.
"Do not disturb. I'm disturbed enough already"
"Do not disturb. I'm solving an emergency"
"Do not disturb. Hangover in progress"
"Out of my mind. Back in 5 minutes"
"Out to lunch. If not back by 5, out for dinner also"
"Do not disturb the Princess"
"Do not disturb. Officially retired, and I deserve my naps"
"Keep Out! Diva in preparation"
"All people enrich this office. Some by their arrival. And some by their departure."
"Maid service requested" Can you imagine your wife's or mother's expression if you leave this on your door?
"Major nap in progress. Put it in a memo." Hang this one on your bosses door
"Quiet! Teenager napping. Disturb at your own risk!"
Gag Certificates
I think it's nice to formally recognize a person's skills and achievements. It's just that some people's skills consist of posing, crazy dancing, or being astoundingly untidy ;-) Click here for some funny certificates that you can download and customise.
(There were to many certificates to fit onto this printable gag gifts page, so I gave them their own page.)
Decision Dice
Let's face it, making decisions is tough. At least, I think it is. Or maybe it isn't. I'm not sure. I need to think about it some more. Ask me again tomorrow.
Anyway, if you know someone who has difficulty making decisions, help them out with one of these handy decision cubes. All they need to do is roll the die and it will tell them what to do next. Click on a thumbnail to download a full-size pdf, and follow these instructions to assemble the cube .
It could be that my cubes are too tame for you. This is a family friendly site, after all. If you're itching for something more... extreme , then why not download this blank decision cube template (Microsoft Word Format) and design your own extreme decision cube . Just don't let your mum see it.
If you don't think that looking for missing spectacles counts as a sport, then you should meet some of my relatives. They've turned it into an endurance sport.
Gag Eye Chart
Click the thumbnail to download a full-size pdf.
This was originally an idea for a retirement gag gift... but I guess this printable gag gift is pretty appropriate for anyone who squints a lot when they read the paper. I just dread the day when my eyes are bad enough that someone gives this to me ;-)
By the way, if you want to customise the text, try our eye chart maker.
Funny Warning Signs
A little while ago my husband discovered this online warning sign generator , and had some fun making silly signs. You can have a go making your own, or you can click on any of the thumbnails below to download a full-size pdf sign.
"Danger. I ate beans this morning. Protective equiment must be worn beyond this point."
"Be Careful. I'm allergic to stupidity. Could you bring me some tissues please?"
"Safety First. Think carefully before asking stupid questions."
"Caution. Please be polite. I'm having a rough day."
"Warning. I have a short fuse."
"Caution. Senior moment in progress."
"While you were napping" Memo Pad
Perfect for that sleepy-head senior-citizen friend, colleague, or parent of yours. This one's a bit hard to explain, so download the pdf memo pad in large format or small format and see for yourself. If you'd like to make your own customised memo pad, you can do so with this Microsoft Word template .
Silly Business Cards
These bring printable gag gifts to a new dimension of silliness. Download the Microsoft Word template here , and have a bit of fun.
The picture here is an example of business card for a recent retiree, but you can make gag business cards for anyone, and obviously business people are great candidates.
If the victim... ahem, I mean your friend, already has their own business cards, then get hold of one to use as a style guide. Sneak your modified silly cards in among their regular cards, and sit back to enjoy the show next time they hand one out. Just make sure you don't ruin any million dollar business deals ;-)
Silly Word Searches
Did you know that there are free online services out there that will make a word search with your own choice of words? It's a fab way to make up a printable gag gift, and you can tailor it to the occasion with the choice of words.
For instance, here are some word searches I put together for retiring men or women (pdf format). If you want to cheat and look at the solutions, here they are for the men version and women version .
Yes, I know it's extremely sexist of me to play on gender stereotypes, but lighten up please, this is after all a page about gag gifts.
Go ahead and put together your own word search - here's the word search generator that I used. Have fun!
Looking for more ideas?
What? More? I've given you a whole humongous page of printable gag gifts and you still want more? Are you serious? Okay, then check out my homemade gag gifts page for more ideas, but I can't promise that their printable. Also, do let me know if you'd like to share some of your own ideas for printable gag gifts.

These are the kind of misses that keep you from sleeping at night.
It doesn`t matter what chips are. They`re called something different here. That was my point. Like when brits call cigarettes fags. Fags are homosexuals, not cigarettes!
My whole POINT was- the whole world is not required to learn european terms just so you europeans are comforatable. Get over it.
oh, and btw, in rugby they dont wear any pads...they`re built up muscle...american football are just pansies packed with pads.
fish...served with chips.
english chips...look it up on wikipedia, i can`t be bothered.
American football is rubbis, why do you use your hands when it`s callled FOOTball??
Anyways American football is just a rip on rugby, and wth is with all the helmets, rugby players don`t need helmets.
Calm down... We live in America, and we call it Soccer. Why the hell don`t you get so worked up when we say "truck" instead of "lorry"? It`s just a different word for the same thing >.>
Anyways, as for the video... Those were some painful misses. O_o Most of them tried to power it in, when all it needed was a tap.
This will definately put my to sleep with a smile on my face.
And all those peopel here who dont like america can go play their rugby and have tea and crumpets for all i care.
Haha, you actually think the US tries to win these minor "championships"? How many people have actually heard of FIBA? No one, right, that`s why the US sends college players at best to these tournaments. Only time NBA players play for the US is in the Olympics, and what kind of record does the US have then? Oh yeah, they`ve gotten gold in 12 of the 16 Olympics and an additional silver and two bronze. There`s a good argument that the US should have won in 1972 as well, giving them 13 golds. Often the US doesn`t send their absolute best either...
Spain`s basketball "championship" is a joke.
It`s RugBY, how would that mean they play with rugs. If anything the rugs would be beside (by) the the pitch. Also it`s named after the place it was invented.
Anyway if I had missed some of those shots I definetly would give up on football.
well yeah of course we are going to struggle, in the US our second-rate athletes play soccer, while the bigger faster stronger people are playing basketball, baseball, and football. if our athletes grew up playing soccer (or football, whatever you call it) we would be a heck of alot better. i still think we do pretty well, considering.
finally ..
Demondan-If they had made an `American worst football shots ever` the filesize would be to large to fit onto IAB
ha ha ^^ lmao ^^
at least LA Galaxy have one saviour now.. one of the greatest players to come of of england and of all time..david beckham !
Nah, the US doesn`t make enough chances to have many bad shots. MLS clubs get plenty of goals against one another and against Mexican Primera teams but in international games the United States often has problems getting to goal.
Anyway, great video. I can recall some recent games I`ve seen in which there have been some terribly easy goals missed too..
Rugby is rubbish, why do you not play it with large rugs when it`s called RUGby??
American Football sucks, we know, get over it. Football and Hockey didn`t really make it over here and we need something to do while we`re getting pissed. Give us a break, have you seen baseball?
I`m not an American supporter!!!
America always think they`re better in every sport. We beat them 3-0 so they can just shove it.
And futball sucks.
American football is rubbis, why do you use your hands when it`s callled FOOTball??
Anyways American football is just a rip on rugby, and wth is with all the helmets, rugby players don`t need helmets.
If they had made an `American worst football shots ever` the filesize would be to large to fit onto IAB
Well, not if I`m supporting the other team.
And boy those misses are damn irritating.

BACLIFF — A San Leon volunteer firefighter and his two teenage boys were left homeless after a fire destroyed their mobile home Sunday night. Because of high winds that same fire spread to a neighboring trailer causing even more damage.
The fire was first reported just before 5 p.m. Sunday at a trailer park in the 300 block of Gordy Street Bacliff Volunteer Fire Department Chief James Westinghausen said.
When firefighters arrived the "fire was fully involved." Gusty winds pushed the flames into the mobile home next door also damaging that residence Westinghausen said.
The San Leon Kemah and Dickinson fire departments assisted Bacliff in battling the blaze but the first trailer was destroyed.
That left Lorenzo Salazar a two-year veteran of the San Leon Volunteer Fire Department and his 13-year-old and 15-year-old boys without a place to stay. The blaze also burned all of their personal belongings including the bikes the boys used each day to get to and from school.
It didn't take long for locals to lend a hand. Precinct 7 Constable Pam Matranga took to her Facebook page to ask for help as did San Leon assistant fire Chief Scott Lyons. Steve Hoyland the editor of the San LeonBacliff monthly newspaper The Seabreeze was able to collect donations to replace the boys' bicycles.
Westinghausen said he was given a gift card from the Lions Club to give the family to help them replace what was lost in the fire.
Lyons said he and other members of his department are taking money and clothing donations at the San Leon fire station to help their fellow firefighter.
The Galveston County branch of the American Red Cross was called Monday and is helping where it can Director Mari Berand said.
Lyons said Salazar and his sons were staying with a relative until they can find a new place to live.
At A Glance
To make donations to help San Leon volunteer firefighter Lorenzo Salazar and his two teen sons call the San Leon Fire Department 281-559-1312; call the Galveston County branch of American Red Cross 409-986-6404; or drop off donations during the day at the fire station 337 12th St. San Leon.

As a busy mom, finding ways to make lunch delicious while still keeping it healthy can be, well, challenging. I often find that I'm short on time or short on ingredients. And in that moment, when I want something totally delicious and satisfying, I'm short on items that deliver. Because of the desire to have a lunch that feels upscale while still being amazingly simple, I've been rethinking the way I create weekday dishes. I've been thinking outside the pouch, so to speak, and elevating my favorite simple lunch into something that feels like a delight. And for me, the most delicious lunch ever is Lemon Dill Salmon Salad Wraps that start with a pouch of my go-to StarKist® Salmon Creations® Lemon Dill.
Besides the fact that it looks totally amazing, I'm sure you're wondering what makes this lunch stand out in a sea of options. It's that the StarKist Creations® Pouches are packed with nutrition and come in ten different flavors. Two of my favorite flavors are Mango Chipotle and Lemon Dill! Each Salmon Creations® pouch has 13g or more of protein, is under 100 calories and has all of the omega-3 benefits naturally found in salmon in each single-serve pouch. That alone makes them a staple in my healthy lifestyle. But in addition to the fact that they are perfect when simply torn open and eaten with a fork, they are also a delicious base for my Lemon Dill Salmon Salad Wraps.
What You Will Need:
(makes 2 servings)
3 Pouches of StarKist® Salmon Creations® Lemon Dill
1/2 Teaspoon of Dried Dill Weed
2 Pickle Slices
1/4 of a Diced Sweet Onion
1 Teaspoon of Fat Free Plain Greek Yogurt
1 Lemon
Romaine Lettuce Leaves
How to Make It:
These Lemon Dill Salmon Salad Wraps are super simple to make, thanks to the key ingredient of StarKist® Salmon Creations® Lemon Dill Pouches!
To start, I emptied three pouches into a bowl.
Now, I have to say, you can totally just eat this salmon as-is because it's super flavorful! But I decided to dress it up a little bit and turn it into a lunch that felt gourmet. So I started by adding in dill weed, diced pickles and onions, and plain Greek yogurt.
After mixing all of the ingredients together, I had a concoction that looked and tasted amazing!
While I'll admit that it would have been fabulous on bread or even a whole wheat wrap, I decided to really keep things fresh and crisp by using romaine lettuce as the "bread" for my wrap. All that was required was washing the romaine lettuce and then spooning half of my StarKist® Salmon Creations® Lemon Dill mixture onto it.
After squeezing a little lemon juice over the top to really elevate the flavor, I was ready to serve my deliciously simple lunch.
Since my lettuce was the perfect size to roll up, I simply picked up the entire wrap.
Then I folded the sides of my lettuce over to ensure that every ounce of goodness was kept inside and ready for me to enjoy.
Just like that, I had a lunch ready to serve that is seriously amazing and feels like a treat in my very busy mom day. All that's required to complete my meal is a trip out to my porch so that I can soak in the sunshine while I savor every bite of my flavorful creation.
This simple lunchtime dish tastes anything but ordinary, and it's perfect for any day of the week. Since it takes less than 10 minutes to make because of the StarKist® Salmon Creations® Pouches, it's easy enough for the days when lunchtime is limited.
It's hard to remember to prepare something good to eat, and even harder to make the time to fix a nutritious meal. StarKist Creations™ make working lean protein into lunch simple with the easy-to-open, ready-to-eat, convenient pouches. The Salmon Creations® are absolutely delicious, but I also enjoy the StarKist Tuna Creations® and, for my kiddos, the Kid's Creations™. They are a perfect way to eat smarter while experiencing fresh flavors that brighten your day.

Just a head's up to those looking for a new, very good Turkish spot in NYC. A few nights ago a few of us went to AY KITCHEN, on Lexington and 27th, and had an excellent meal.
AY is located across the street from Curry in a Hurry, in a spot where a few restaurants have come and gone over the past couple of years. It is comfortable, informal, but well done.
The owner and staff couldn't be nicer. We were approached a number of times and asked if we needed anything, how was our meal, etc. Although the spot was recently mentioned in the NY Times, and business is up, I believe, it still doesn't get packed and its a place that should survive.
Our apps all were very good, fresh, light. Not heavy handed with garlic, salt, etc. Both the few lamb dishes we ordered (outstanding iskendar kebab and a ground lamb kebab) and the grilled fish were great. If I had any complaint its that the spic factor could be brought up a notch. When asked they brought over two different hot sauces. Small wine list. Good desserts.
In any event, for those looking for someplace new to try, its a great option. Stuck in the middle of Curry Hill its a bit incongruous but, the food and service are great. Cheers.

Town & Country Ford Body Shop

"John said they were excellent."
Review for Town & Country Ford Body Shop
Boris K. on 10/28/2014
Boris said this business was backed up with work due to a hail storm. They told him it would be easier for him to take his vehicle elsewhere. He refused and asked them to talk to his insurance company. A couple of weeks ago they contacted him to tell him his vehicle was ready. Then they informed him his vehicle needed other things. He did not give them permission to do anything else, so they told him he would be contacted when it was going to be ready. This seemed weird, like it was ready but they were just trying to up sell him more things. They did a great job and changed his oil, so he got what he paid for. They handled a chaotic situation well. He did not receive the estimate from the adjustor until after the repairs. He would rather have received the estimate prior.

The United States Conference of Mayors is the official nonpartisan organization of cities with populations of 30,000 or more. There are 1,139 such cities in the country today. Each city is represented in the Conference by its chief elected official, the mayor.
As a Director's Intern, you will focus mostly on a specific project or policy issue area that is in tune with your academic background or interests. Within that area, you may be asked to do research, attend hearings on the hill or events around DC, brief senior staff on topics such as pending legislation, best practices within cities, etc.
For the Conference's Annual Meeting in June, you will travel with USCM's staff to San Francisco, where you will play a central role in scripting remarks and producing plenary sessions. You will also be asked to write articles for our newspaper, US MAYOR, the official publication of the United States Conference of Mayors.
2015 Intern Reflection:
The United States Conference of Mayors is a must-get internship. As soon as I walked in the doors of the office, I was given responsibilities akin to those of existing staff members. The staff is friendly and willing to mentor new people in the office, and I've greatly benefitted from speaking with individuals in between assignments. We often go out for lunch, which has allowed me to both get an insider's perspective on the organization and explore D.C.'s local food scene. It's a fun, friendly atmosphere that is highly conducive to learning.
Much of the task work revolves around the USCM's Annual Meeting, which took place in San Francisco this year. Before the meeting, I wrote and edited continuity (introductions for speakers and panelists); during the meeting, I worked with speaker staffs and tech crews; and after the meeting, I've worked on writing articles about the event for the organization's newsletter. The work has put me into direct contact with President Obama, Hillary Clinton, Martin O'Malley, and many of the mayors of our nation's largest cities. Most tasks have included a lot of writing, and my work with the Harvard Political Review has helped with that, and while writing for a student publication was helpful for me, it isn't mandatory.
Mark Bode '18
2014 Director's Intern Reflection:
From participating in a conference call with the White House discussing mayoral positions on the recent release of the EPA's new carbon standards to visiting the Saudi Embassy planning for mayors to attending a function in Saudi Arabia this December, every day is fast-paced and unique--and that doesn't even include the Conference itself! The Mayors held their Annual Meeting in Dallas this past June and my internship placed me in the center of everything. Working the conference from sunrise to sunset, I had the opportunity to help the President of the Conference prepare for his speeches and I constructed the continuity for the plenary sessions. Even more, I edited and distributed an education booklet to all of the mayors and I also helped construct a website for the newly launched Mayor's Professional Sports Alliance, which was released at the Annual Meeting.
As you can tell, there was never a dull moment during my internship, especially at the Conference. By providing a forum where mayors from cities across the nation can convene to share their best practices and ideas for improving areas from technology and transportation to climate change and entrepreneurship, the Conference placed me among the bipartisan leaders of our nation. I got to listen to, learn from, and meet some of the more personable and humble mayors from big cities and small cities alike. Throughout the summer, my supervisors provided me with an awesome work experience, always making sure that I was enjoying my work, while also valuing my input on their projects.
Kevin Hornbeck '16
2013 Director's Intern Reflection:
When I first arrived at the Conference, I started work right away formatting, drafting, and writing the continuity that planned out every minute of the annual meeting that was to take place in Las Vegas. I wrote the script that was used to introduce politicians like LA Mayor Garcetti, Mayor Menino, and Vice President Biden. I accompanied the staff to Las Vegas where I worked around the clock to revise the continuity to reflect last minute changes. Since the conference, I drafted several articles about the conference for the Conference newspaper, US MAYOR.
I truly appreciate the culture here at the Conference of Mayors. From my first day at the internship, the staff has been extremely kind and personal towards me, always asking how my day has been and how I was spending my time in D.C. My supervisors are especially thoughtful and I have found that even though I am only working as an intern, they take my inputs and suggestions seriously as if I were a peer.

"The European Council today reelected Donald Tusk as its president for a second term of two-and-a-half years, from June 1, 2017 to November 30, 2019", the Council later confirmed in a statement, adding that Tusk was also reappointed as president of the Euro Summit for the same period.
Beata Szydlo, the PM of Poland, has claimed that she would not adopt final document of the summit, which means it could not be considered as valid.
Brussels wants to distribute refuges across all European Union countries, which Poland opposes.
The council president is responsible for chairing summits, coordinating the work of member countries and making sure the 28 nations speak as much as possible with one voice on the global stage.
At a summit in Brussels, diplomats said the 27 leaders tried to put behind them a furious row with Poland that had disrupted proceedings the previous day and handed guidelines to their staff to prepare a solemn declaration of unity which they will all sign in Rome on the bloc's 60th birthday in two weeks time.
"If EU politicians think they can blackmail countries by telling them some money would be taken away from them, the EU has very bad prospects ahead", Szydło told a news conference, confirming the emotional exchange. What some consider the ruling party's efforts to undermine rule of law by taking over the constitutional court have been debated extensively in Brussels, though without impact in Poland. Poland was the only country to vote against Tusk's reappointment.
In the coming years, Warsaw will need to build alliances in negotiations over how much of Europe's budget will go to Poland's poorer regions and how big a hit it will take when Britain leaves the bloc and stops paying its dues. However, the bloc's eastern members, who fear they will be excluded from deeper integration in the future, are against the idea. He says Tusk neglected the president's security and then left the investigation of the crash in Russia's hands.

Okla. State Senator Hit With Child Prostitution Charges
The messages, which were found on the teenager's Kindle Fire tablet, later led to the charges against the Oklahoma senator. Senate officials said Shortey will still receive his $38,400 annual salary as a senator and will be allowed to vote.
Emily Blunt to star with husband for first time
But both loved the script for A Quiet Place so much, they made a decision to go ahead and make it together . Paramount and Platinum Dunes are handling production, and Michael Bay is among the producers.
However, Tusk, who chaired the debate on Friday, urged European Union member states to strive towards maintaining political unity after Brexit.
The talk of a multi-speed Europe has intensified in recent months. "I would make the same deal to Kaczyński".
Poland's prime minister was given a hero's welcome on her return from Brussels.
Since the Brexit referendum in June 2016, the British government has so far refused to offer any formal reassurance to the 3.1 million European Union citizens living in the United Kingdom, insisting it could harm its effort to secure the rights of the 1.2 million British nationals estimated to be living in other European Union countries. Jacek Saryusz-Wolski had to be decided by a consensus vote?
"We are disappointed by Prime Minister Orban's attitude", said Jaroslaw Kaczynski, the co-founder and head of the PiS who has never hidden his enmity towards Tusk.
"The day will come when the British will re-enter the boat, I hope. Yesterday we were shown that it's different", he added.

UK's May Says Now Is "Not The Time" For Scottish Independence Vote

ITE East students label internships at SMEs as valuable, 'sneak peek' into real working world
More schools are giving its students a boost in their careers by encouraging them to participate in internship programmes prior to graduation. For ITE East College, students in the School of Electronics and InfoComms Technology found the process for applying for internships as "simple and not tedious at all" – proof that the school is indeed committed to producing industry-adaptive and employable graduates.
While these students were assigned their internships, many of them were curious about working in an SME and in the end, found that they now have an advantage over their peers.
"Throughout the internship, I was exposed to a lot of IT-based work by my supervisor which I'm grateful for. Now I know what job roles I can expect when it comes to working in the Infocomms industry. In fact, this has also improved my understanding and grades in school," said Lim Ching Siang who interned at Digimatic Solutions.
For Samuel Wong who had a stint in IoTalents, it was SMEs' natural characteristic of being fast-paced and ever-changing that he found appealing. He shared, "The internship gave me insight on the real world challenges and problems that SMEs face and finding solutions to overcome these struggles."
While most students were ready to simply apply the practical skills and knowledge acquired in school, many revealed that their expectations were surpassed having realised the internships were not just about their contributions to the organisation assigned, but rather a platform for them to explore new areas and skillsets within the industry.
"I was expecting the tasks during internship be similar to what I've learned in school, but it exceeded my expectations as I ended up learning more than I already have. It also spurred my interest in pursuing an Infocomms technology course in polytechnic," said Lim Ching Siang.
In the end, these internship programmes give students the confidence to remain in the Infocomms industry. More importantly, they give students a thirst for more knowledge that help keep our workforce competitive and relevant.
Jiahui Lin who was an intern at HRM Labs shared, "Now that I have some basic knowledge of what the Infocomms industry is like, I can take up other courses to complement the skills I already have like coding and networking."

Yesterday, with Incremental Orwellianism, I presented only the latest example that ought lead everybody to conclude that our two political parties are united -- them against most of the rest of us.
Over the years I've been quizzed on it from the typical sheeple with the questions they've been schooled in by the antidisestablishmentarian "conservative" talk show hosts. "C'mon Pascal. The difference in the positions of the two parties could not be more clear." Although they've long heard the wisdom -- and many even adhere to it -- to "judge a man by his deeds and not his words," they somehow cannot take that same wisdom and apply it to the political party of their choice.
How can two parties be so united even as one of them quite obviously gets angry with the other over the differences in their party's stated goals? They can't ALL be acting can they?
All it takes is for each of the members of the parties to conclude that they are somehow better than the rest of humanity. In that common inclination that they each have something special that other humans lack, they unite against the rest of us. It's another one of those conscience-salving phenomena, somewhat less directly deadly than the radical green concept that the number of humans on the planet must be drastically reduced, but every bit as autocratic in its consequences.
The liberals in the Democratic Party believe that they are purer because they mean well. And the media almost never holds them to account when their hare-brained schemes go awry. The Progressives (who started out in the GOP, but whose mentality has shifted over to the Dems also) always thought themselves the enlightened ones, the ones who knew best, "the best and brightest," the most clever -- yes sneaky -- but the ends justify the means so the libs will accept us even as they don't trust patricians.
So we have one party that gets its most ardent followers from those who think they're more pure at heart than the rest of humanity.
We have another party that is controlled by those who believe themselves to be super clever and better thinkers and planners than the rest of humanity.
They've managed to get along with each other because each is willing to accept the others shortcomings just so long as they get what they want. Were men angels, we would need no government. But also because they who govern are not angels but men subject to the same failings as the governed, checks must be placed on the governors. The American constitution was written with the express intent of limiting what mischief men in government might be inclined to do.
As the consequences of sowing the wind from this unholy alliance between the former adversaries -- where they labored to convince us that they were true adversaries, but they are winking at and not checking each other -- that we now are reaping the whirlwind.
As the world devolves into chaos, remember the sins of those in this unholy alliance, an alliance based on variations in hubris, and then maybe the survivors will be demand humility in their new leaders -- on the pain of death. (A very fine thought on this day that is the pretender to Washington's Birthday on Wednesday. George Washington, the indispensable man whose humility shames the hollow men we have today. It's no wonder that today's rulers wish him forgotten.)
Please God: Deliver us from evil one more time.
Despite the alleged separation of church and state, BELIEF in Sustainability is widely held in American secular government. Judeo-Christian moral guidelines have been incrementally supplanted by what can best be described as neo-pagan ones. Consequently, notice where rulers never utter a harsh word towards Malthusian, Utilitarian and Green nutcases. There the ruled are at grave risk.

My day began by dragging myself out of bed at 5 AM to go to a 6 AM practice for dance. Still exhausted, I put forth a somewhat positive attitude until about a half hour when I crashed. I didn't want to be there. My body didn't want to function. I had zero focus and little motivation. As the school day crept closer, I felt the intense need to go home, crawl back in bed, and sleep the day away.
The rest of my day was yet another roller coaster of ups and downs and everything in between. At the end of the day, it was down, and I can't even tell you how badly I want to get off this terrifying ride.
I hold back tears all day, I tell myself to "grow up" and just "get over it". I'm trying my best, but every day I look in the mirror and I hate what I see. I'm tired of seeing an emotional train wreck looking back at me. I don't like how worn down she looks. I hate the word negativity, but I see a big cloud of it surrounding me and contrary to Joyce Meyer's beliefs, it isn't that easy to "choose positivity" when your brain is chemically unbalanced. Depression is not a choice.
Some days I wonder just how long I'm gonna survive like this. Because, in all honesty, I've been on this earth for 17 years, feeling symptoms of depression for almost 6 of those years, and it just gets a little harder each day to believe that things will get better. I count down the days until I am able to start medications and start the journey of finding a sense of balance.
I'm exhausted. What more can I say? The hot tears that roll down my face burn out of anger. I'm frustrated. I never know where to turn. I know the right answer is God's Word, but it seems so hard. The voice in my head always yells: "I didn't sign up for this, God!" And I'm mad because I'm doubting Him and I know I shouldn't.
This morning I had to remind myself to breathe. Most people know how to do that on their own without a second thought. Me? My head is like a never ending storm, tossing directions to my body left and right, telling it what it needs to do to live. In the meantime, the darkness shoves me deeper into a depression by shoving thoughts into my head that I don't even know how to articulate to you.
Getting out of bed is a chore that I dread. The weather makes me upset easily. I'm always overtired but anxiety keeps me awake. I run on coffee and music to get me through the day. I wish God didn't feel a million miles away sometimes. I sit on my bed, hug my knees to my chest, close my eyes that are brimming with tears, and rock back and forth, wishing the pain away.
I'm irritable. Angry. Sad. Frustrated. Self-hating. Stressed. I don't like looking to people for help because I feel like a burden. I don't want to live. I don't want to die. I'm just stuck surviving and it's exhausting.
I guess that's all really. Not sure where to go from here,
Marissa Mayer
