52 GetawaysSee All 52 Getaways
Active Adventures
One of the best ways to enjoy winter is to boldly get out and take on whatever it throws at you. In Connecticut, that can mean a lot of things, from skiing or boarding down one of our snowy slopes, to bundling up and hiking through a forest or even just strolling through a town center. You can always warm up in front of a fire later on.
Arts & Culture
Plan a tour of Connecticut's indoor treasures this winter, whether it be world-class murals, Impressionist masterpieces, a regional theater production or a stroll through one of our great museums. As you learn and marvel and perhaps even see something amazing for the first time, you'll realize there are getaways for the mind as well as the body.
Family Fun
When the weather outdoors turns frightful, Connecticut offers family-oriented indoor attractions that are delightful. You'll find your kids a great place indoors whether their idea of fun runs to dinosaurs, tigers, sharks, sports or flora and fauna. Put together a vacation day, weekend, or even a snow day with an indoor itinerary they'll remember.
History knows no season, nor will your travels as you head back in time to immerse yourself in Connecticut's glorious industrial past, its military installations, its crusading women or even its bridges and town greens. As you travel back and learn, you'll find that Connecticut's story is really a lesson in American history as well.
Rest & Relaxation
Warming up to winter is something we do very well in Connecticut, whether it's a fireplace in your room at the inn, a steam bath at a destination spa or a hot show at one of our casinos. Come with friends or that special someone. Relax. Revive. Find your comfort zone in a Connecticut winter.

Pfister form
In mathematics, a Pfister form is a particular kind of quadratic form over a field F (whose characteristic is usually assumed to be not 2), introduced by Albrecht Pfister in 1965. A Pfister form is in 2n variables, for some natural number n (also called an n-Pfister form), and may be written as a tensor product of quadratic forms as:
for ai elements of the field F. An n-Pfister form may also be constructed inductively from an (n-1)-Pfister form q and an element a of F, as .
So all 1-Pfister forms and 2-Pfister forms look like:
- .
For n ≤ 3 the n-Pfister forms are norm forms of composition algebras.[1] In fact, in this case, two n-Pfister forms are isometric if and only if the corresponding composition algebras are isomorphic.
The Pfister forms are generators for the torsion in the Witt group.[2] The n-fold forms additively generate the n-th power In of the fundamental ideal of the Witt ring.[1]
We define a quadratic form q over a field F to be multiplicative if when x and y are vectors of indeterminates, then q(x).q(y) = q(z) where z is a vector of rational functions in the x and y over F. Isotropic quadratic forms are multiplicative.[3] For anisotropic quadratic forms, Pfister forms are multiplicative and conversely.[4][5]
Connection with K-theory[edit]
Let kn(F) be the n-th group in Milnor K-theory modulo 2. There are homomorphisms from kn(F) to the Witt ring by taking the symbol
where the image is an n-fold Pfister form.[6] The image can be taken as In/In+1 and the map is surjective since the Pfister forms additively generate In. The Milnor conjecture can be interpreted as stating that these maps are isomorphisms.[6]
Pfister neighbours[edit]
A Pfister neighbour is a form (W,σ) such that (W,σ) is similar to a subspace of a space with Pfister form (V,φ) where dim.V < 2 dim.W.[7] The associated Pfister form φ is uniquely determined by σ. Any ternary form is a Pfister neighbour; a quaternary form is a Pfister neighbour if and only if its discriminant is a square.[8] A degree five form is a Pfister neighbour if and only if the underlying field is a linked field.[9]

Seared Scallops with Brandied Leeks & Mushrooms
From EatingWell: November/December 2007
Sautéed mushrooms and leeks have a robust flavor that marries nicely with a touch of brandy and sour cream in this quick scallop dish. Substitute vermouth for a more mellow flavor. The mushroom mixture is equally delicious served with steak or chicken. Make it a meal: Serve over barley.

- 4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- 10 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cups thinly sliced leeks, white and light green parts only (about 2)
- 1/4 cup brandy, or dry vermouth
- 1/4 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
- 3 tablespoons reduced-fat sour cream
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
- Freshly ground pepper, to taste
- 1 pound large dry sea scallops, (see Note)
- Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to give off liquid, about 3 minutes. Stir in leeks; cook, adjusting heat to prevent scorching, until the vegetables are very tender and the leeks are starting to brown, about 8 minutes. Add brandy (or vermouth) and broth; cook until reduced and thickened, about 30 seconds. Remove from the heat and stir in sour cream, parsley, 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste. Cover and set aside.
- Pat scallops dry and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper. Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallops and cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. To serve, place some of the leek-mushroom mixture on each plate and top with scallops.
Tips & Notes
- Note: Be sure to buy "dry" sea scallops (scallops that have not been treated with sodium tripolyphosphate, or STP). Scallops that have been treated with STP ("wet" scallops) have been subjected to a chemical bath and are not only mushy and less flavorful, but will not brown properly.

The U.S. Supreme Court late Friday temporarily blocked a federal judge's ruling that ordered Missouri prison officials to drive a pregnant inmate to a clinic on Saturday for an abortion.
Justice Clarence Thomas, acting alone, granted the temporary stay pending a further decision by himself or the full court.
Missouri state law forbids spending tax dollars to facilitate an abortion. However, U.S. District Judge Dean Whipple ruled Thursday that the prison system was blocking the woman from exercising her right to an abortion and ordered that the woman be taken to the clinic Saturday.
An appeals court on Friday refused to stay the ruling.
The woman, whose name was not disclosed in court papers, has said she will borrow money for the abortion from friends and family, but cannot afford to pay for transportation.
Under a policy adopted in July, Missouri's prison system does not provide transportation or security for inmates seeking abortions. The policy is based on a state law that prohibits the spending of public funds "for the purpose of performing or assisting an abortion not necessary to save the life of the mother."

Activation of the human immune system by chemotherapeutic or targeted agents combined with the oncolytic parvovirus H-1

BMC Cancer 2011, 11:464 doi:10.1186/1471-2407-11-464Published: 26 October 2011
Parvovirus H-1 (H-1PV) infects and lyses human tumor cells including melanoma, hepatoma, gastric, colorectal, cervix and pancreatic cancers. We assessed whether the beneficial effects of chemotherapeutic agents or targeted agents could be combined with the oncolytic and immunostimmulatory properties of H-1PV.
Using human ex vivo models we evaluated the biological and immunological effects of H-1PV-induced tumor cell lysis alone or in combination with chemotherapeutic or targeted agents in human melanoma cells +/- characterized human cytotoxic T-cells (CTL) and HLA-A2-restricted dendritic cells (DC).
H-1PV-infected MZ7-Mel cells showed a clear reduction in cell viability of >50%, which appeared to occur primarily through apoptosis. This correlated with viral NS1 expression levels and was enhanced by combination with chemotherapeutic agents or sunitinib. Tumor cell preparations were phagocytosed by DC whose maturation was measured according to the treatment administered. Immature DC incubated with H-1PV-induced MZ7-Mel lysates significantly increased DC maturation compared with non-infected or necrotic MZ7-Mel cells. Tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6 release was clearly increased by DC incubated with H-1PV-induced SK29-Mel tumor cell lysates (TCL) and was also high with DC-CTL co-cultures incubated with H-1PV-induced TCL. Similarly, DC co-cultures with TCL incubated with H-1PV combined with cytotoxic agents or sunitinib enhanced DC maturation to a greater extent than cytotoxic agents or sunitinib alone. Again, these combinations increased pro-inflammatory responses in DC-CTL co-cultures compared with chemotherapy or sunitinib alone.
In our human models, chemotherapeutic or targeted agents did not only interfere with the pronounced immunomodulatory properties of H-1PV, but also reinforced drug-induced tumor cell killing. H-1PV combined with cisplatin, vincristine or sunitinib induced effective immunostimulation via a pronounced DC maturation, better cytokine release and cytotoxic T-cell activation compared with agents alone. Thus, the clinical assessment of H-1PV oncolytic tumor therapy not only alone but also in combination strategies is warranted.

I was able to span two windows with one rod in our sun room. I love these rods. The phinnials are gorgeous. Very nice rods and i'd like to get more of these for more of our windows. It was hard to find one that would span such a large area, so i was very happy to find these.

5 out of 5 stars Mommy Makeover
Almost 3 months PO. Pics!
I had several consultations for a mommy makeover in Austin. Just my consultation with Dr. Kerr and his staff was the most professional and thorough out of all of them. Dr. Kerr really listens and takes the time to explain the procedures like none of the other doctors did. I have my surgery date in three weeks and I am so excited! Update! Surgery was a success and I couldn't be more thrilled with the results! Dr. Kerr is a magician!

I Am IN LOVE with my Results! I Have Saline Implants! 425 Cc, High Profile! :D - Round Rock, TX
I have to say that Dr. Kerr is one of the best doctors I know, he is very kind and knows exactly what he is doing! I would and do recommend him to anyone who wants a breast augmentation, or anything else done! He is very polite and true gentlemen. His work is excellent!

450cc Silicone Under the Muscle - Austin, TX
Yelp, Google, YP, and Realself (5 stars each). After multiple consultations with a plethora of PS, I knew Dr. Kerr of Synergy Plastic Surgery was a cut above the rest. Dr Kerr, Tess, Melissa, and Ashley all made me feel confident and in good hands. My surgery was yesterday and, believe it or not, Dr. Kerr made the entire process a peice of cake for me. The girls are sore, but more like how you'd feel after over-doing it at the gym.. pics to come soon and I'll keep you posted on my progress.

I did it!!! TT and BL - Round Rock, TX
So far - very good bedside manner and extremely good reviews from patients. Down to earth and seemingly knowledgable and competent. Great before and after pictures. Will say more as I have more contact with pre-op and post-op. Went to Pre-op appt today - really love my PS so far - he's so calm and collected and really positive. About three weeks ago, I called to ask some questions and the patient coordinator told me to email Dr Kerr directly! So I did - and within the hour he replied and told me he'd answer all my questions that evening. Sure enough - that night I got a response - and he answered every one of my 10 questions, thoughtfully! I was frankly stunned. Feeling so much better and at ease and confident that I'm in good hands! Three weeks post-op: I love my results, my doc, and his staff! I have had nothing but good experiences with them, I'm so grateful! I will never use any other plastic surgeon and I will sing his praises to everyone who is considering having work done. I'm 110% glad I chose Dr Kerr and Synergy Plastic Surgery!

Recently the appearance of my nose really started looking uglier - Best Decision I Ever Made! - Austin, TX
Dr. Kerr and the staff at Synergy Plastic Surgery are truly amazing and unique. What I like about Dr. Kerr is that I can talk to him as he's one of my friends and he "gets it"! He's so down to earth but at the same time he's extremely smart and professional. If you want to talk medical jargon he can to that, but if not; he's up for that too! Also, his staff is ALWAYS in the best spirit. You'll never find them without a smile on their faces. However, what really made a lasting impression on me was the amount of time Dr. Kerr spent with me during my initial consultation. First, we sat in his office and he took his time listening to me and what I wanted; I never felt rushed. I say he "gets it," because I always felt like Dr. Kerr and I were on the same team, he always understood what I was trying to convey. He made sure I understood the basics of the procedures before moving forward. I am truly grateful for the time and effort he dedicated to me and my procedure. He's passionate about his work and never steers away from the plan. He's simple, yet tremendously talented and I couldn't be happier with my results! Regardless of whether it was the initial consultation, or a follow-up appointment; Dr. Kerr and the entire staff at Synergy Plastic Surgery made sure I always felt comfortable from the very beginning. My entire experience has been excellent and probably one of the best decisions I've ever made. Synergy Plastic Surgery definitely comes highly recommended!

Trunkplasty After Major Weightloss - Round Rock, Tx
I have seen many good plastic surgeons in my nursing career, but none with Dr Kerr's sense of excellence!! From the moment I first became a patient of Dr. Kerr's, I felt as if I was the most important patient he had. From the beginning of the surgical process, I had his undivided attetion every time I saw him. He is patient, kind and in tune with a womans perception of beauty. I would recommend Dr Kerr to everyone seeking a very competent Board Certified plastic surgeon. I have been an operating room nurse for more than two decades. After having worked with Dr Kerr for more than two years, I can testify to the quality of his work and the diversity of his talents.

Dog finds way home after 8 years
The Reid family lost Junior, their Jack Russell terrier, in 2005. He went out to "go potty" and never returned. (Evidently the Reid family didn't have an enclosed backyard). Eight years later, Junior showed up at the bottom of their driveway. They knew it was him because he was still wearing the same collar and tags. They're calling his return a miracle. [myfox8.com]
Something's not right with this story. As Doubtful News says, "Is this the whole story? Is it really the same dog? Confusing."
I can think of some possible explanations, though who knows what the truth really is:
1) Eight years ago, someone took Junior. Never changed his collar and tags. And then, Junior either escaped, or his kidnappers decided to get rid of him and dumped him back where they found him.
2) Someone in the Reid family decided to whip up a Christmas surprise for the kids by engineering the miraculous return of Junior. So they got a new Jack Russell, put a "Junior" tag on him, and discovered him at the bottom of the driveway.
The "rediscovered pet" is an old theme. Similar stories we've seen include The Cat That Crossed 3000 Miles To Come Home from 1951 (a classic of the genre), and more recently the Tortoise That Survived in a Closet for 30 Years.

Talcum powder and cancer
There has been concern that using talcum powder on the genital area could increase the risk of ovarian cancer.
Scientists are trying to see if this is the case, but for now the evidence is still uncertain. However, even if there is a risk it is likely to be fairly small.
What does the evidence say?
Cosmetic body and talcum powders often contain a mineral compound called talc. Several studies have looked at talcum powder use and ovarian cancer. While on the whole studies have seen a modest increase in the risk of ovarian cancer in women who use talc on their genitals, the evidence isn't completely clear. So we can't be sure whether or not talc itself could cause ovarian cancer.
Stronger studies don't find a link
The majority of studies looking at talc and cancer relied on people remembering things they did a long time ago. These are called 'case-control studies', and many of them have found a link between talc and ovarian cancer.
But these studies also have important weaknesses. People may not accurately remember how much talc they used in the past, and women with ovarian cancer may be more likely to remember using talc than women who don't have cancer. This might skew the results.
Scientists can avoid these problems with studies that follow healthy women to see if those who use talc go on to develop ovarian cancer in the future. These are called 'cohort studies' and they are generally thought to be a better way of finding out whether something affects the risk of cancer. So far there has only been one cohort study looking at talc and ovarian cancer - and it didn't find a link with ovarian cancers overall.
The risk of ovarian cancer doesn't increase when women use more talc
If something truly causes cancer, you would expect people who are exposed to more of that thing to have a higher risk. For example, the more you smoke, the higher your risk of lung cancer. But the majority of the studies have not found a similar relationship for talc use and ovarian cancer.
Using diaphragms (contraceptive caps) or condoms dusted with talc does not increase the risk of ovarian cancer
Talc from these contraceptives will be placed closer to a woman's ovaries during sex than it would if simply applied to the genital area. So the ovaries would be exposed to a higher concentration of talc. But studies haven't found an increased risk of ovarian cancer in woman who used talc on diaphragms.
Direct application of talcum powder to the lungs does not cause cancer
Talc is used in a medical technique called pleurodesis that can help relieve symptoms of some lung problems. Doctors apply sterile talc directly to the lining of the lungs in this technique. And there is no evidence that this direct application of talc to the body causes cancer.
How could talcum powder cause cancer?
Before the 1970s, talcum powder was often contaminated with asbestos fibres which are known to cause cancer. But since then, all home products containing talcum powder are legally obliged to be asbestos-free.
Some scientists have suggested that talc particles could travel to the ovaries, irritate them and cause inflammation. Low-level, long-term inflammation may increase the risk of some types of cancer. But so far, it doesn't look like using anti-inflammatory drugs can reduce the risk of ovarian cancer. And the evidence around whether talc could travel in this way is weak.
Putting any risk into perspective
The ovarian cancer charity Ovacome have produced an excellent factsheet. They make a really important point that puts any potential risks from talc into perspective:
The evidence for a link is weak, but even if talc does increase the risk of ovarian cancer studies suggest it would be by around a third. This is a modest increase in risk and ovarian cancer is a relatively rare disease. Increasing a small risk by a third still gives a small risk.
Ovarian cancer risk is affected by many things
As with most cancers, the risk of ovarian cancer increases with age. And women with a family history of breast or ovarian cancer may also be more likely to develop ovarian cancer. If you think you might have a family history of cancer, it's a good idea to talk to your GP.
Things to do with childbearing and hormones are believed to play a role in ovarian cancer. Risk of ovarian cancer is lower the more children a woman has. And taking hormonal medications, such as the contraceptive Pill or Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), can also affect the risk.
Smoking also affects the risk of ovarian cancer and, unlike age or family history, it is something we can control. A Cancer Research UK study has estimated that each year around 200 UK cases of ovarian cancer could be prevented by not smoking. For help in quitting, visit the NHS Smokefree website or speak to your doctor or pharmacist.

Political Instability in the Maldives Could Have Regional Fallout
Deposed President Mohamed Nasheed's ouster was a defeat for democracy and a victory for conservative Islamism in the Maldives. But the resulting political instability in the Indian Ocean archipelago threatens to exacerbate regional rivalries in which the strategically located island nation has increasingly figured.
The apparent coup d'état on Feb. 7 was triggered by Nasheed's move to arrest the chief justice of the Criminal Court, Abdulla Mohamed. Nasheed accused Mohamed of blocking a graft probe against Abdul Maumoon Gayoom, who ruled the Maldives for 30 years until Nasheed unseated him in the country's first democratic election in 2008. But the story behind the transfer of power in this nation of about 330,000 Sunni Muslims is far more nuanced, as Nasheed's removal by security forces -- allegedly fomented by Gayoom's supporters -- came after his pro-reform policies had created a sustained clash with an opposition determined to preserve the pre-eminence of religion in public life. ...
