More copies of this ISBNHope for Animals and Their World: How Endangered Species Are Being Rescued from the Brinkby Jane Goodall
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:At a time when animal species are becoming extinct on every continent and we are confronted with bad news about the environment nearly every day, Jane Goodall, one of the world's most renowned scientists, brings us inspiring news about the future of the animal kingdom. With the insatiable curiosity and conversational prose that have made her a bestselling author, Goodall-along with Cincinnati Zoo Director Thane Maynard-shares fascinating survival stories about the American Crocodile, the California Condor, the Black-Footed Ferret, and more; all formerly endangered species and species once on the verge of extinction whose populations are now being regenerated.
Interweaving her own first-hand experiences in the field with the compelling research of premier scientists, Goodall illuminates the heroic efforts of dedicated environmentalists and the truly critical need to protect the habitats of these beloved species. At once a celebration of the animal kingdom and a passionate call to arms, HOPE FOR ANIMALS THEIR WORLD presents an uplifting, hopeful message for the future of animal-human coexistence. Review:"With the resurgence of red wolves and California condors, there is good news on the species front, as chronicled in this collection of success stories by renowned chimp researcher Goodall. Section one recounts the revival of six mammal and bird species, including Mongolian miniature horses and Australian wallabies, that became extinct in the wild but are being reintroduced to their natural habitat through captive breeding. Section two describes efforts to bring species back from near extinction, among them Brazil's golden lion tamarin and the North American whooping crane. Section three details continuing efforts to preserve 11 species, including the giant pandas of China, whose bamboo diet is disappearing, and the Asian vultures of India, whose 'disastrous population drop' — from a reported 87 million birds to 27 breeding pairs in 2006 — has led to a dramatic rise in disease incubated by putrefying cattle carcasses once scavenged by the carrion-loving birds. Goodall is no Pollyanna about species reclamation — she acknowledges that there have been more losses than gains — but these accounts of conservation success are inspirational. (Sept. 2)" Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)
Synopsis:Interweaving her own firsthand experiences with the compelling research of premier scientists, Goodall illuminates the heroic efforts of dedicated environmentalists and the truly critical need to protect the habitats of endangered species.
Synopsis:Renowned primatologist Goodall's latest book is an inspiring compilation of wildlife conservation success stories, collected during her extensive global travels. The author offers accounts of people and groups who have worked tirelessly to save several species on the brink of extinction.

Crystal Structures of the GluR5 and GluR6 Ligand Binding Cores: Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Kainate Receptor Selectivity Neuron, Volume 45, Issue 4, 17 February 2005, Pages 539-552 Mark L. Mayer Summary Little is known about the molecular mechanisms underlying differences in the ligand binding properties of AMPA, kainate, and NMDA subtype glutamate receptors. Crystal structures of the GluR5 and GluR6 kainate receptor ligand binding cores in complexes with glutamate, 2S,4R-4-methylglutamate, kainate, and quisqualate have now been solved. The structures reveal that the ligand binding cavities are 40% (GluR5) and 16% (GluR6) larger than for GluR2. The binding of AMPA- and GluR5-selective agonists to GluR6 is prevented by steric occlusion, which also interferes with the high-affinity binding of 2S,4R-4-methylglutamate to AMPA receptors. Strikingly, the extent of domain closure produced by the GluR6 partial agonist kainate is only 3° less than for glutamate and 11° greater than for the GluR2 kainate complex. This, together with extensive interdomain contacts between domains 1 and 2 of GluR5 and GluR6, absent from AMPA receptors, likely contributes to the high stability of GluR5 and GluR6 kainate complexes.

The Free Energy Landscapes Governing Conformational Changes in a Glutamate Receptor Ligand-Binding Domain Structure, Volume 15, Issue 10, 16 October 2007, Pages 1203-1214 Albert Y. Lau and Benoît Roux Summary Ionotropic glutamate receptors are ligand-gated transmembrane ion channels activated by the binding of glutamate. The free energy landscapes governing the opening/closing of the GluR2 S1S2 ligand-binding domain in the apo, DNQX-, and glutamate-bound forms are computed by using all-atom molecular dynamics simulations with explicit solvent, in conjunction with an umbrella sampling strategy. The apo S1S2 easily accesses low-energy conformations that are more open than observed in X-ray crystal structures. A free energy of 9–12 kcal/mol becomes available upon glutamate binding for driving conformational changes in S1S2 associated with receptor activation. Small-angle X-ray scattering profiles calculated from computed ensemble averages agree better with experimental results than profiles calculated from static X-ray crystal structures. Water molecules in the cleft may contribute to stabilizing the apo S1S2 in open conformations. Free energy landscapes were also computed for the glutamate-bound T686A and T686S S1S2 mutants, and the results elaborate on findings from experimental functional studies.

Mechanism of Partial Agonist Action at the NR1 Subunit of NMDA Receptors Neuron, Volume 47, Issue 1, 7 July 2005, Pages 71-84 Atsushi Inanobe, Hiroyasu Furukawa and Eric Gouaux Summary Partial agonists produce submaximal activation of ligand-gated ion channels. To address the question of partial agonist action at the NR1 subunit of the NMDA receptor, we performed crystallographic and electrophysiological studies with 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACPC), 1-aminocyclobutane-1-carboxylic acid (ACBC), and 1-aminocyclopentane-1-carboxylic acid (cycloleucine), three compounds with incrementally larger carbocyclic rings. Whereas ACPC and ACBC partially activate the NMDA receptor by 80% and 42%, respectively, their cocrystal structures of the NR1 ligand binding core show the same degree of domain closure as found in the complex with glycine, a full agonist, illustrating that the NR1 subunit provides a new paradigm for partial agonist action that is distinct from that of the evolutionarily related GluR2, AMPA-sensitive receptor. Cycloleucine behaves as an antagonist and stabilizes an open-cleft conformation. The NR1-cycloleucine complex forms a dimer that is similar to the GluR2 dimer, thereby suggesting a conserved mode of subunit-subunit interaction in AMPA and NMDA receptors.

Yalini Arinaminpathy, Mark S.P. Sansom and Philip C. Biggin,
Address reprint requests to Dr. Philip C. Biggin, The University of Oxford, Laboratory of Molecular Biophysics, Department of Biochemistry, The Rex Richards Building, South Parks Road, Oxford OX1 3QU, UK. Tel.: 44-1865-275380; Fax: 44-1865-275182.Ionotropic glutamate receptors are essential for fast synaptic nerve transmission. Recent x-ray structures for the ligand-binding (S1S2) region of the GluR2 α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid (AMPA)-sensitive receptor have suggested how differences in protein/ligand interactions may determine whether a ligand will behave as a full agonist. We have used multiple molecular dynamics simulations of 2–5ns duration to explore the structural dynamics of GluR2 S1S2 in the presence and absence of glutamate and in a complex with kainate. Our studies indicate that not only is the degree of domain closure dependent upon interactions with the ligand, but also that protein/ligand interactions influence the motion of the S2 domain with respect to S1. Differences in domain mobility between the three states (apo-S1S2, glutamate-bound, and kainate-bound) are surprisingly clear-cut. We discuss how these changes in dynamics may provide an explanation relating the mechanism of transmission of the agonist-binding event to channel opening. We also show here how the glutamate may adopt an alternative mode of binding not seen in the x-ray structure, which involves a key threonine (T480) side chain flipping into a new conformation. This new conformation results in an altered pattern of hydrogen bonding at the agonist-binding site.

We had a most pleasant stay at the Seagull B&B recently and would be happy to recommend it. The owners, Jim & Ayla, are very friendly and accommodating, the rooms are furnished with a variety of antiques and more modern items which make it all very homey and inviting. The beds are extremely comfy, and the breakfasts are delivered to your room in the morning at a convenient time and feature homemade muffins, fresh-cut fruit and lots of delicious coffee, complete with fresh flowers. I understand there's an egg dish on Saturdays...we'll have to include that with our next visit. A very cozy place for your Mendocino Coast getaway.

Nice clean and quaint B&B located in the heart of town with easy access to everything. Hostess was very pleasant and a more than adequate breakfast included. Would stay again and recommend.

This is our second stay at this beautifully and lovingly maintained historic home and garden. The owners Ayla and Jim, along with their staff, could not be more accommodating; they were always available for any questions we had about the area. They also offer the perfect balance to privacy and interaction. After our three-night stay, it was a challenge to move on after such tranquility and pampering. Our light-filled comfy room was just the right size for the two of us, typically small in an older structure. I felt like a princess in our sumptuous bed, enveloped in luxurious linens. Without the delicious breakfast of homemade muffins and scones, fresh fruit and steaming coffee brought to our room at our prescribed breakfast time, I'm not sure I would have made it out of our snuggly bed for our morning walks along the beach and bluffs. We preferred not having to drive after out evening meal and drinks so the Sea Gull Inn was the perfect location at the edge of the small town, only a few minutes walk from any of the local restaurants. Each room has a different character at the Sea Gull so do ask about the differences when seeking accommodations. We stayed in Lookout Two, which has a room above it. One early morning we were awakened by guests moving about but this was a result of the lack of insulation in the floors of the old building. Nonetheless, we look forward to returning to the comfortable Sea Gull Inn for another pleasant stay.

The room we booked initially (the Shed) was smaller than we had hoped for so the innkeeper gave us a larger room (Driftwood) which was perfect. Large sunny room with a nice size vintage bathroom.

It was our first visit to Northern CA and it was worth it. Staying at the Sea Gull B&B was a great choice. Jim and Ayla were super hosts. The location, our room , and breakfast were all great. We found our hosts to very friendly and both made us feel at home. We stayed 3 nights and if we had time would had stayed longer. One thing you need to do is to walk down to the beach. The sight of the river, ocean and cliffs coming together is just beautiful. And it is only a short walk from the Sea Gull. Till this day my wife and i still talk about breakfast and the beauty of Northern CA.

I've been staying at the Sea Gull for upwards of 30 years, and it just gets better every time I come here for a bit of a "get-away". The rooms are lovely and very clean, in a beautiful, quaint garden setting; great breakfasts served in-room, and charming & helpful hosts. What more can I say? I look forward to each and every visit.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Seagull. From the comfy beds and lightly lavender scented sheets to the inn's beautiful gardens and scenery of the nearby town and bay, we loved this quaint historic inn with friendly and accommodating innkeepers. We stayed in Lookout 1, from which we could see trees, people arriving for the music festival, and waves crashing on the far-off cliffs. We also enjoyed the two big white rocking chairs on the porch. The breakfast was so delicious and served to our room, warm sundried tomato and artichoke heart quiche, with fresh local organic fruit, yogurt, pot of coffee, tea, and orange juice. We couldn't have asked for a more relaxing and charming honeymoon stay!

Our first visit to California and we had travelled from a lovely hotel in San Francisco. The location was excellent within easy walking distance of the beach and the cafes and shops. Our room was very comfortable with an excellent bed. Our only disappointment was the breakfast. It is served in your room which is fine if you aren't sociable in the morning (we missed meeting other guests) but was quite small. One muffin, a small bowl of fruit and an egg cup of yogurt was not what we had expected for the such a high price.

The Sea Gull Inn turned out to be the perfect place for a quick getaway. Our room was cozy and comfortable and the location of the inn can hardly be beat. All the fun of Mendocino Village is right out your door, including the shops, great restaurants, and the beautiful ocean scenery. Breakfast was just the right start to our day, and we were well taken care of the whole time. And, by the way, the rates are very reasonable! Thanks to innkeepers Jim and Ayla for a great stay!

My husband and I enjoyed three nights at the Sea Gull Inn in Mendocino. We loved our room, The Shed. It was charming, clean and had everything we needed. The Inn keepers and staff were friendly and helpful when asked for resturants.etc.The flat screen was nice for watching TV or DVD's. The most appreciated part of staying at the Sea Gll Inn was the location. We left our car parked at the Inn and walked everywhere. We plan to return and are sharing our experience with our friends.

My husband and I stayed at the Sea Gull Inn 2 years ago and loved it. This month my mother and I were driving up the coast and all she wanted to do was stay at the Sea Gull. Both my husband and I had talked about how wonderful and homey it was. It was just as great as I remembered. Jim and Ayala are so welcoming and make you feel like special from the time you check in. Then there is the breakfast! I have stayed at many B&Bs and find this one of the best breakfasts I have had. I would recommend that anyone that wnats a wonderful experience with a great B&B you should stay at the Sea Gull Inn. Anytime of the year is great!

The lovely photos and reviews I saw of this inn before my arrival did not prepare me for how enchanting, peaceful, and comfortable my stay would be. No ground line phones in the rooms and the bare minimum of needed services made this a true retreat. I could get what I needed and then withdraw into the cozy room or blooming garden. Everything from the luxurious king-size bed to the wood stove made the Driftwood room most inviting. The breakfast tray, delivered directly to the room each morning, was always a meal to look forward to. Mellow hosts, artistic cooks, considerate maids, a beautiful setting, and Sofia the cat greeting guests on the front porch. I'll be going back.

We have stayed at the SeaGull Inn probley a dozen times because when you find a good thing, you stick with it. The Inn keepers Jim and Ayla are incredible and the prices can not be beat.

My husband and I spent the weekend in Mendocino in June. We stayed at the Geranium room which is on the 1st floor. Nice room; very clean and comfy. Breakfast was great...all organic and very tasty and freshly baked. Jim and Ayla are very nice. We also met Sandy and Consolacion when we checked out... both nice and sweet ladies. I will recommend this B&B. Very good value for your money. Danny & Connie G

This was the first time in years my son and daughter had time off from their student schedules at the same time. We went to San Francisco and Mendocino to celebrate. Loved staying at " the Barn " with its loft, its double-Dutch doors, its rustic feel and its privacy from all the other rooms. The gardens were gorgeous, the inn-keepers so helpful and friendly, and the breakfast, which was served in our living room was great! The central location was a real plus as well. Highly recommend it.

It can be difficult to please a teenager, but Jim and Ayla took such good care of us, and the room was sooo accommodating and beautiful and comfortable that we both were like happy little pups the entire length of our stay. Even the stormy weather was wonderful when coupled with this charming room. Thank you- we will be back.

Great getaway from the busy city life. Flew in from outer state and loved the quietness and small community. One of the best things is their scones yum!!! The rooms are nice & cozy the owners told us of gret places to taste wine & eat, i.e; Toulouse Winery, Great Garlic Fries & Food in Fort Bragg and LePetite Riv in Mendocino. The owners, Ayla & Jim are very nice and accommodating people. One of the most relaxing things was having no phone, newspaper, or tv, just sitting in the garden and reading hearing the Pacific Ocean in the distance. One day we would love to go during Whale watching season.

My girlfriend and I had never been to Mendocino so we decided we'd take a quick trip for an overnight stay for Christmas. We were pleasantly surprised at the quaintness of the "shed" that we stayed in. The property owners were very pleasant and accommodating and were a wealth of information. Very cool downtown with lots of shops to check out. Ocean trails, biking and views were awesome. We will definitely be back in 2012.

Ayla & Jim - the hosts and owners were extremely kind, helpful, sweet and caring. They made sure we had everything we wanted or needed, they made a difficult reservation for us at 955 Ukiah restaurant (delicious), made sure we knew how to get everywhere, showed us all the special things about our charming room, gave us names of their colorful exotic plants that surround the Inn (really magical sitting areas amongst the most beautiful gardens), provided us with the most incredible breakfasts (special egg dish, fresh fruit, OJ, yogurt, good coffee - Sat & homemade pastry with everything else on Sun) that arrived right on time, and they were just the nicest couple you ever wish to meet. We could not have been more pleased with our way too short stay - we can't wait to go back!

My birthday treat from my wife, two nights at the Sea Gull Inn in Mendocino, couldn't have been more enjoyable. Even the weather was a Spring respite from the raging winter we left behind in Sacramento. Having stayed at the Sea Gull Inn more than 30 years before, I was impressed at how it had become downright elegant, when once it was at best funky chic. The friendliness of the Innkeepers and staff, including Sophie the Cat, really contributed to the comfort of our stay. The delicious breakfasts were the perfect compliment to my perfect birthday dinner at the nearby Cafe Beaujolais. We will return and recommend to our friends and family.

A single traveler, I spent 2 nights at the Sea Gull Inn. The first night, which was in The Shed was mixed. The decor was charming and comfortable, but several sowbugs from the garden kept finding their way in and proceeded to crawl around the bathroom floor and up the walls in the main room. They aren't dangerous, and it wasn't a hoard of them, but it was a bit annoying. One even managed to make its way into my computer case. At night in The Shed, two racoons crawled up on the roof and reminded me that I wasn't in the city any more. They do make a lot a noise. I couldn't get the bathroom window to close completely either, so I stuffed a towel in it. This also helped cut down on the draftiness. However, the heater worked very well. The second night I was in The Abalone Room. This room had nice views of the garden and had better natural light than the shed. No sowbugs here, but when the wind picked up the bathroom window rattled enough to interfere with my sleep. Not to worry, I stuck a handy item between the window and the sill--it worked! The breakfasts were delicious, and it was wonderful to have them delivered to the door. The people were very nice and friendly. I would stay here again. I felt it was good value for the money, and most of my complaints are simply a result of the Inn being in an old house which doesn't fit together as tightly as it once did.

My husband and I spent a long weekend in the Lookout room. The bed was very comfortable, the breakfast was nice, loved that it was delivered to our room. My husband would go over to the coffee place (Moodys) for a cap for him and a latte for me while we waited for breakfast. Very nice to be right in the center of Mendocino, walking to anywhere was so easy. We did have nice weather for a day and half, then on Sunday, when we were leaving, a very strong rain storm came in, in the process of packing the car and trying to keep dry, my husband forgot a bag that I had a couple things that I had bought in town. When we realized our mistake, I called and talked to the manager to see if he could find it, he did, it was right where we left it, I asked him if I sent some money, could he mail it....he said "no money was necessary" and he mailed it to us! We got it in about 3 days, I was so thankful for him doing that. We only live in Santa Rosa but a drive back to Mendocino would not have been our choice to retrieve our treasure. All in all, we loved our weekend (even with the rain), am planning on going again maybe for our anniversary in July.

My wife and I had a wonderful time in Mendocino staying at the Sea Gull Inn. The housekeeper was very warm and welcoming. The family cat was very friendly too:-) We stayed in the Lookout Room with Ocean View. It is a nicely decorated room with a very comfortable bed. The breakfast was with fresh organic ingredients and was delicious. The innkeeper was very knowledgeable about the area and gave us useful tips about the local attractions. We would recommend this place without hesitation.

My wife and I really enjoyed two nights in the newly remodeled room. The fireplace was perfect for the escape that we needed. We haven't enjoyed the rain this much in a long time. We overslept then sat by the fire a read until the sun came out. Then we walked around the bluffs and the village. Breakfasts were great, hosts are great, location and room was great. Thank you Jim and Ayala. Looking forward to our next stay.

My girlfriend and spent two nights at the Sea Gull Inn in April 2010. We stayed in the Lookout 2 room, which actually has two beds, a nice couch, and a bit of extra space for relaxing. If you're looking for a comfy, homely bed and breakfast then this is the perfect place. The owners were tremendously nice, offering suggestions and responding quickly to any issues. We actually heard a sound from a smoke detector which had a dying battery in the middle of the night. I called the landlord and he was there to swap it out in minutes. Great response! The breakfast isn't much, but it was way better than we expected. Freshly baked coffee cake, fresh fruit and berries with some organic yogurt, and coffee. They'll bring extra coffee if you want, though we tended to go over to the Organic Coffee shop one block away which always had 4-5 types of coffee brewing. Mendocino is fantastic. We had a wonderful picnic, and we also went wine tasting in Anderson Valley. Also we went on many lovely walks. I highly recommend the Sea Gull Inn and we hope to return soon.

The best part was being in adjoining rooms (Lookout 1 & 2)--and TWO beds in one room--nearly unheard-of in the B&B world. We will definitely come back. Lovely, convenient, affordable--with delicious breakfasts and hosts willing to work with dietary restrictions. And the cat was the perfect homey touch.

Ayla and Jim are great hosts, very friendly and accomodating. The breakfast served was one of the most delicious I've ever had.

I lead a small motorcycle group to this Inn early in the year each year. We are never disapointed by the service/food/location that the Sea Gull Inn provides our group.

This was the best place I've ever stayed at! The hospitality was unparalleled, the rooms clean, and the breakfasts amazing. Thank you!!

We had a fabulous time at the Sea Gull Inn. The Innkeepers, Jim & Ayla were very friendly and helpful in providing us with tips on how to get the most out of our visit in Medocino. They also provided excellent service, wonderful & healthy breakfast in a tranquil environment. We brought our bicycles, and I pointed out other Inns to my daughters as we rode through the community and each time both of my daughters said, "We like where we are at better, at the Seagull Inn." We would happily stay there again. Julie, Amber and Madison Loredo

Our stay at the Sea Gull Inn was fantastic! It was definitely a new experience and a most pleasant one at that. Despite the rain, our mood was kept uplifted by the adorable paintings and the warm cozy setting. Falling asleep in the Sea Gull Inn with the sound of the storm outside made us feel safe. And waking up in the morning to a divine breakfast delivered personally to our door added to its perfection. Thanks for a very memorable stay.

My wife and I seem to get up to the charming village of Mendocino atleast once a month lately do to my work. Now that we have found the Sea Gull Inn, we have no desire to stay anywhere else. The rooms are clean and so wonderfully styled, each with it's own special twist. The host's, Jim and Ayla, are such sincere and sweet folks that just to start off the visit by seeing their friendly faces, makes for a refreasing experience.The food and price are what tops it all off with quality and reasonability. THIS IS THE PLACE TO STAY!!

We had a wonderful visit to Mendocino last week and staying at the Sea Gull in contributed to our experience. Jim & Ayla were so welcoming and accommodating. The Inn is walking distance to everything in the village. We will definitely stay at the Sea Gull on our next visit. The breakfasts were delicious.

My wife and I were visiting from the UK and driving from San Francisco to Seattle. Mendocino is a charming place to stop the night, and the Sea Gull Inn is a delightful B&B, with nicely decorated rooms, great breakfast (with tables and chairs outdoors when the weather is nice) and a lovely restaurant next door.
5 sur août 25, 2009
My wife, our two daughters and myself spent 3 nights here. Everything was superb, but mostly the hospitality of Jim and Ela ,the hosts, has made an everlasting impression upon us. Their organic breakfast every morning was something to look forward to. I would recommend it to anyyone who wants to see this magical place on earth.

My stay could not have been more perfect. The room was beautiful - inviting and spotlessly clean, with a beautiful garden & ocean view from my window. It was completely relaxing and rejuvenating, and I will definitely return.

The Sea Gull Inn was very nice. It was a great value. The breakfast was amazing. The gardens were amazing and full of beautiful flowers.

6-10 MPH Over
10+ MPH Over
I like to go about 6 or 7 over. Knock on wood, but that has gotten by through many a speed trap without getting pulled over. I guess eventually some cop on a slow day might have to settle for that, but I gotta feeling they are looking for a legit 10-12 over the speed limit at minimum.

Just did Ames to Akron, Ohio. My average speed was 81.8 over the 700-800 miles it is. I usually go about 12-15 over. This time I was in Chicago, just trying to keep up with the traffic on I-80/90 and I didn't realize how fast we were going until we passed a couple ambulances with their lights on. We were going 95 in a 55. I slowed down...

I usually go between 8-10 over on the interstate, and 5-7 everywhere else. Of course, I live in Cedar Rapids, so the three lanes of 380 is left lane-5 over, middle lane-speed limit, right lane-5 under. The worst drivers in the state live here.
Originally Posted by Al_4_State I don't understand the guy that said he goes 10 over on 80 between IC and Des Moines. This is actually quite common. I do a lot of work in the Quad Cities and I commute from Des Moines and it is not uncommon to see people go 80-85 on that stretch on I-80. Most of the time they have Illinois plates. Traffic tends to slow down between the speed traps that are usually set-up: just East of Bondurant and the last rest area before you hit I-380.
I'm usually about 5 to 7 over. With the 75mph speed limit in Nebraska, I am able to get out of the state in no-time!
I did 80 the whole way from Northern Iowa to Indianapolis today. Including in Illinois where it dips to 65 instead of 70.
It depends on the time. In the morning, I get almost run off the road doing 8 over. At night, I take what I can get. F Houston traffic.
7 to 8. More if I want to get away from morons.
Nine cars passed me this year.

Hello Teenreaders! Did you watch the Oscars last weekend? I don't have a TV (I know, I know…I think I just heard half of you make a horrified gasp through my computer) but I went to a restaurant that was screening the Awards with a few friends. Besides Ellen DeGeneres's Glinda dress and Lupita Nyongo's heartfelt acceptance speech for Best Supporting Actress for 12 Years a Slave, my favorite part of the night was watching a border collie playing with a West Highland terrier for three hours --- the restaurant was dog-friendly! As amusing as Ellen's pizza delivery was, not a lot can compare with adorably rambunctious canines.

Re: Is Demeco pulling a Mario?
Go to Austin and everything is concentrated in downtown. Here there are pockets; the Galleria, Washington, Midtown, etc. But, there's no centralization. It's not a criticism, necessarily, but it's the way it is.

Re: Is Demeco pulling a Mario?
This article is written to make Philadelphians and Eagle fans feel better about themselves and to sell newspapers. No reason for us Texans or Texans fans to read it unless you want to get pissed off for some reason. DeMeco is going to say what makes his new fans happy. It is what it is. The only thing I even care to comment on is comparing fans of an 80 year franchise to a 10 year franchise. Did DeMeco really think everyone in Texas was going to instantly become a Texans fan? That takes generations.

Re: Is Demeco pulling a Mario?
Philly is an old Northeastern city, a very historical city, you know the Liberty Bell and all of that. Houston on the other hand is a new city, a Sunbelt economic juggernaut that's a magnet for those seeking employment opportunities.
And it's past time the young Mr Ryans gets beyond the southeastern quandrant of the US and sees the rest of this great country. |

Re: Is Demeco pulling a Mario?
I don't understand his comment about the Astrodome, what does that have to do with the price of tea in China?
I thought Houston was well known for having a lot of museums, restaraunts, NASA, etc. but I guess not. Unfortunately most of the rest is true. We on this message board are obviously diehards and the exception, but there are a lot of fair weather fans. I guess that can be attributed to the Oilers leaving, or transplants, IDK. It does bother me a little he doesn't think the fans were behind him here, most of us absolutely loved Demeco! All in all, his comments weren't mean spirited, I think the reporter is trying to stir the pot.

Re: Is Demeco pulling a Mario?
It is the truth and for me Im glad houston has multiple areas of interest as it spreads the population of people who go out and do things more. The downside is that being spread out makes a really good mass transit system nearly impossible |

Re: Is Demeco pulling a Mario?
I'm going to defend him based on my personal interactions with him over the years. We weren't buds who hung out or anything, but I had conversations with him at several autograph sessions and his radio show.
He was not hesitant during his down time in the event to sit there and talk to the fan and answer anything you asked - about his team, his life, etc. Seemed like a stand up guy. This stinks of Philly Reporter wanting to stir the pot a bit. A Philly radio host was on 610 this morning and said that Demeco said many times that he loved his time in Houston and would have been happy to stay here. IMHO people are reading too much into his comments and count me in the camp that he is not taking veiled pot shots at Houston. And from city A to B every city is going to be different - the people, infrastructure, sports radio callers, etc. |

Having said all that, every city has its drawbacks. I just make the best of them and hope things get better. He's still in his honeymoon period with the Philly fans and he's just saying what they want to hear.

Re: Is Demeco pulling a Mario?
Guess what Meco, the area around Lincoln Financial is pretty sparse too. As the guys on 610 pointed out, there's nothing really hostile about what he said, he just didn't need to say it.

Re: Is Demeco pulling a Mario?
My only beef with the article was this...
If the front office/Bob McNair didn't have a world of respect for DeMeco they'd have just flat cut him as opposed to trading him to (1) a 4-3 defense in which he can excel, (2) to a team that can afford to continue to pay him what he's worth (we can't), and (3) to a contending team so he has a chance to make the playoffs (but our of the conference ). I could add a 4th: East coast team where he'll get some league-wide press (now whether that's good or bad press....) I say DeMeco said nothing bad about Houston or the fanbase. But the article's author....

Re: Is Demeco pulling a Mario?
As far as what he said, what was he supposed to say? Tell Philly fans that Houston is a better city? Not a good way to get on their good side at this point in time. Much about nothing, IMO.

Re: Is Demeco pulling a Mario?
I love how "mature" grown men are when they're traded to a new team/city. All of a sudden, the grass is greener...the food tastes better...etc., etc. Quote:
Hey DeMeco, News Flash: Fans welcome the new guy, they roll out the carpet, all across the league. It's the customary "Welcome to My Town" fare. Quote:
I visited San Jacinto battlefield as a kid, while in Houston exhibiting livestock at the Houston Livestock Show...I was able to do a history report on it, too. Got to visit the Battleship Texas, too. That's an underrated piece of historical hardware, too. NASA is sort of a big thing, like you said. How many other U.S. cities have the massive NASA complex??? DeMeco was mild in his comments, compared to other douche nozzles out there like Mario Williams and David Carr. It is interesting that Mario Williams was Charlie Casserly's last official draft pick here. How many douche nozzle high profile picks by Casserly (Carr, Dunta, Mario, etc.) ended up leaving here and somehow, in some way, trashing us to a degree? I think this team has drafted better "character" individuals since Casserly left. We've become better since Casserly left, even if the improvement is small and in its infancy...but I think winning cures a lot of ills. When a player leaves a winning team, he knows he can't really trash them out because he got kicked off a good team--He knows it won't wash if he trashes out a good team, it will reek of sour grapes. That's why guys like Carr and Dunta get so pissy. "What?!?! You're kicking ME out of here? You don't want ME?!?! LOL. Whatever. I was all you guys ever had." Know what I mean? They can play the victim card, as if THEY were blamed for the team's poor record. I hope we draft like kings this week. I hope we have our best draft ever. Because if we do, we're going to be freaking awesome for the next 5 or 6 years, minimum. It would be nice to take this bit of success and expand it into a true Steelers/Patriots/Giants type of franchise. IMO, DeMeco wasn't an ass like the other guys were. He tempered his words, he measured his thoughts and I think he did an OK job keeping it civil. Mario, however, can kiss my ass. That guy is a bigger, stronger version of David Carr.

Re: Is Demeco pulling a Mario?
He's no longer one us, he's one of them now. He will do or say whatever it takes to get the Eagle's fanbase on his side and assimilate with his team. That's his priority, not Houston. No big deal really, just ignore it and move on.

January 27th is the date of the Yuma Pro Am sign up for the 2007 season opener. It is also the date of the 2006 season awards BBQ. Yuma Pro Am is a draw team format bass tournament club that pairs boaters (pros) with non-boaters (amateurs) to fish as a team for the day. The BBQ is open to any member who fished Yuma Pro Am in 2006, and to any new angler who joins and signs up for the 1st tournament of the season in 2007. The festivities will be at Sportsmen's Hide-A-Way on January 27th 2007. Dinner will be ready about 5:15 and the awards will be announced about 6:15 with a tackle raffle there after. We will be giving away rods and reels, tackle packs, and a Fish Hedz mask courtesy of Save Phace and their local pro staffer Dave Willhide. There will be a gift certificate for a day on the water with our local Goin' Fishin' Productions Guide dave as well. Each angler will get one raffle ticket for each 2006 Yuma Pro Am event that have attended and , yes the BBQ is an event of the 2006 Season. As a side note. Since the BBQ is a part of the 2006 season that means that technically anybody who signs up at the BBQ qualifies to be considered a charter memebr having particiapted in a charter season event. The BBQ will be the last opportunity to join and become a charter member of Yuma Pro Am. Charter Members will get a charter member cap that they can save or wear. Additonal Charter Members caps are available for $10 to any charter member, but when they are gone they are gone. Many anglers already have received their charter member caps so don't be surprised if you see somebody wearing one. If you have not gotten yours let me know at the BBQ. After the awards and raffle are finished we will draw for partners for the tournament launching out of Fisher's Landing on Sunday morning the 28th of January. $15 Season Membership. $25 Basic Tournament Entry $ 5 Big Fish $ 5 8# pot $15 Big Bucks (Top 3) Our schedule is posted at http://www.YumaProAm.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.YumaProAm.com .

If you can not make it to the draw call me (Bob) at (928)580-1270 the day of the sign up and I will put your name in the draw for you. All anglers will have to sign a liability and membership form for the 2007 season before they can fish in any Yuma Pro Am events.The schedule for the 2007 season is as follows. 2007 Tournament ScheduleJanuary- Draw 27th - Fish 28th Fisher'sFebruary- Draw 24th - Fish 25th Fisher'sMarch- Draw 24th - Fish 25th Mittry LakeApril- Draw 28th - Fish 29th Fisher'sMay- Draw 26th - Fish 27th Fisher'sJune- Draw 2nd - Fish 3rd Fisher'sJuly- Draw 28th - Fish 29th Fisher'sAugust - Draw 25th - Fish 26th Fisher'sSeptember- Draw 29th - Fish 30th Mittry LakeOctober- Draw 27th - Fish 28th Fisher'sNovember- Draw 24th - Fish 25th Fisher'sDecember- Draw 8th - Fish 9th Fisher'sAwards BBQ January 2008TBA = To Be AnnouncedFor more information call, e-mail, or visit our website.(928) email@example.com://www.YumaProAm.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.YumaProAm.com" TARGET=_blank>www.YumaProAm.com

Femur Rotation and Patellofemoral Joint Kinematics: A Weight-Bearing Magnetic Resonance Imaging Analysis

Controlled laboratory study using a cross-sectional design.To compare patellofemoral joint kinematics, femoral rotation, and patella rotation between females with patellofemoral pain (PFP) and pain-free controls using weight-bearing kinematic magnetic resonance imaging.Recently, it has been recognized that patellofemoral malalignment may be the result of femoral motion as opposed to patella motion.Fifteen females with PFP and 15 pain-free females between the ages of 18 and 45 years participated in this study. Kinematic imaging of the patellofemoral joint was performed using a vertically open magnetic resonance imaging system. Axial-oblique images were obtained using a fast gradient-echo pulse sequence. Images were acquired at a rate of 1 image per second while subjects performed a single-limb squat. Measures of femur and patella rotation (relative to the image field of view), lateral patella tilt, and lateral patella displacement were made from images obtained at 45 degrees , 30 degrees , 15 degrees , and 0 degrees of knee flexion. Group differences were assessed using a mixed-model analysis of variance with repeated measures.When compared to the control group, females with PFP demonstrated significantly greater lateral patella displacement at all angles evaluated and significantly greater lateral patella tilt at 30 degrees , 15 degrees , and 0 degrees of knee flexion. Similarly, greater medial femoral rotation was observed in the PFP group at 45 degrees , 15 degrees , and 0 degrees of knee flexion when compared to the control group. No group differences in patella rotation were found.Altered patellofemoral joint kinematics in females with PFP appears to be related to excessive medial femoral rotation, as opposed to lateral patella rotation. Our results suggest that the control of femur rotation may be important in restoring normal patellofemoral joint kinematics.

What do a stripper, a housewife and an orphan all have in common? Butter. More specifically, butter carving. In small-town Iowa, the annual butter carving contest is a chance for vengeful lovers, ambitious politicos and youthful dreamers to prove their worth and, perhaps, make a much needed change. When I heard about the concept behind Butter, I knew it was meant to be. It involves the most unusual combination of dynamic personalities like, ever, competing in a butter carving contest! Does it get more ridiculous than that? But Butter isn't all absurdity, oh no, it's much more than that. Butter is a smug satire that will jostle you with its provacative humour, and at the same time, touch you with the endearing message behind it. The synopsis may be unconventional but the ensemble is full of familiar faces and is one worth noting. In Butter, the women take the lead with Jennifer Garner, Olivia Wilde and newcomer, Yara Shahidi, all delivering strong performances. I have to say, Shahidi and Wilde blew me away with clever, tongue-in-cheek characterizations of both an orphan and stripper respectively. Seriously, I was completely caught off guard, especially by Wilde. They are, by far, the best and most unexpected performances in the entire film. And the hilarious scenes with Shahidi and her adoptive father (played by Rob Cordrry) are second to none! But while I do find the movie entertaining, it does sometimes verge on inauthentic, the humour occasionally lacking in subtlety and finesse. Another problem is that the movie is pieced together like a series of comedy sketches rather than having the organic flow that it should. This isn't director, Jim Field Smith's, first rodeo by way of comedy either. I was actually quite fond of his 2010 debut of She's Out Of My League. Being Field Smith's sophmore work, Butter isn't always spot on but when he gets it, he really gets it. The humour is mostly politically centric and takes on a superior sort of attitude which will score with some and offend others. But hey! That's what a satire is supposed to do, right? At the core, Butter is a little indie film with frequent laughs and lots of heart. On the surface, Butter may not seem like anything other than a series of ridiculous hijinks, but if you take the time to dig below the surface, you'll find a touching farce that speaks volumes about American culture, politics and ambition. And yes, though it sometimes misses the mark, it'll still manage to melt your heart... just like warm butter.

Weekend News Wrap Up: AMAs Recap, Canibus Going At Eminem & How Much Did Diddy Spend On His Birthday Party?
Monday, November 23rd, 2009 at 4:15 pm
Views: 4642
AMAs Recap
The 37th annual American Music Awards were held last night and big hip-hop winners of the night included Jay-Z and The Black Eyed Peas, who won two awards each.
Jay won for Favorite Male Hip Hop Artist and Favorite Hip Hop Album, while the Black Eyed Peas won Favortie Pop/Rock/Duo and best Soul/R&B group.
Performers of the night included Jay-Z & Alicia Keys who performed "Empire State Of Mind", 50 Cent, Eminem, Mary J. Blige, Lady GaGa, Jennifer Lopez, Timbaland, Janet Jackson, Whitney Houston and The Black Eyed Peas.
Eminem lost to Taylor Swift for Artist of the Year and went home empty handed. He performed his hit "Crack A Bottle" along with 50 and spit his verse from "Forever".
Taylor Swift won the most awards, taking home five, beating Michael Jackson who was awarded four.
The most memorable moment of the night had to be J. Lo busting her a** on stage while she was performing. Other than that, it was just another boring award show.
Check Out Jay-Z's Acceptance Speech and Eminem & 50 Doing "Crack A Bottle"

Canibus Vs Eminem…Round 2
An old hip hop beef has just been resurrected… Canibus just released a new track that is a blatant diss towards Eminem.
On the new song entitled "Pop Killer", Canibus along with rapper DZK go in on Em, talking about his deceased best friend Proof and even his beef with Mariah Carey. Canibus says :
"If Proof was alive, he's be dying inside. You ain't no Hip-Hop messiah, you a b*tch cause you dissed Mariah. Sh*t like that, supposed to be private."
"I'ma fry you on behalf of Mariah and Michael, put you back on dem drugs, make you suicidal. You can't shut the record down, n*gga it's viral."
That's cold to bring Proof into it, but you know Eminem is going to have a whole lot to say about this one. Jay and Beanie are over, make way for Eminem and Canibus…
How Much Did Diddy Spend On His 40th?
Sean "Diddy" Combs turned 40 last Thursday and decided to celebreate in a big and EXPENSIVE way. He reportedly spent $3 Million on his Garden of Eden themed Plaza Hotel birthday bash.

His all start guest list included everyone from Young Jeezy to Martha Stewart, yes, Martha Stewart. Check out some of the photos from the $3 million dollar party.

Depressing & Uninspiring. Every Wednesday.
Send to friends to ruin their day too.
Wednesday, December 5th
It's time to take care of something that has been weighing on your mind. Clean the blood out of your trunk and use bleach this time. Aries | |
You should really think about wiping your hands on your pants before AND after shaking hands with people this week. Gemini | |
This month you will unknowingly repulse a Leo and Capricorn so severely they will vomit. Their vomiting will in turn make a Gemini and Sagittarius vomit. This cycle will continue until most people in your community will be hospitalized with severe dehydration. Cancer | |
Don't allow any Scorpios to handcuff you this week. If they offer, tell them you gave up handcuffing for lent. Cancer | |
Something is giving you a headache this week. We think it's the cat litter you haven't changed in 18 months. Virgo | |
When the clock strikes eleven tonight, it would be a smart move for you to open and close the front door repeatedly while screaming the lyrics to American Pie. Virgo | |
It is highly recommended that you get a perm. The style might not look good on you, but the smell of hair products will divert attention from the other scents on your body. Libra | |
Indulge your curious side by peeking into the stall next of you in public bathrooms this week. You're likely to find a new friend. Sagittarius | |
This is a good week to consider finding a new companion. A DERF Gnome would be perfect for you. They're trained not to talk if they are more intelligent than their owner. Watch our CONTEST page for upcoming Gnome giveaways. Capricorn | |
Gather your thoughts before speaking in anger. While you are gathering your thoughts, you might want to gather some weapons too. The people you are angry at are better armed. Aquarius | |
Relationships will be rocky as Jupiter aligns with Neptune, and people's noses align with the ungodly odor of a rotting Hot Pocket that you accidentally lost in the fat folds of your belly. Aquarius | |
Stressful moments can be overcome by quiet, meditative reflection. However, your mind may not be cut out for meditative reflection. Try numbing yourself with cough syrup instead. Pisces |
Parties, concerts, nightlife, benefits, art, wine, sports, theater, and more.

My working title for the Girl Scout story will be "No Campfire, Girls", which is certainly better than the "Burning Brownies" that someone suggested!
Meanwhile, the working title of my "space opera" novella, which is flirting with becoming a novel, is: "Beowulf: In Harm's Way". Or possibly "The Beowulf: In Harm's Way", since that's the name of a ship.

You'd think only being able to sleep three or four hours at a stretch would increase my writing time. Unfortunately, some of the other side-effects of Prednisone—nausea, headache, tiredness, and don't get me started on night sweats—have slowed me down. Worse, I haven't experienced the side-effect I hoped for: loss of appetite.
But at least my arm feels better. Oh, wait … no, it doesn't.

Usually these unique colors are released only in other countries. Sometimes if they look like big sellers a company decides to try selling it too but it's rare.
