As Christmas draws to an end (at least where I live), let's hope we don't see a Santa Clause ever again:
I know it's too much to hope that we never see a random colon again; it's bound to show up on Yahoo! where it doesn't belong.
In the U.S., two punctuation marks always go after a closing quotation mark: the colon and semicolon. Except on the Yahoo! front page, where the rules of punctuation are optional:
We Americans just like to do things differently. One of those things is where we place some punctuation marks relative to quotation marks. In the U.S., periods and commas go inside quotation marks, like this:
I said, "Periods go inside quotation marks."
"Commas do too," I added.
The rest of the English-speaking world tends to disagree with us Yanks. But there is one rule of punctuation we all agree on — everyone except the writers and editors at Yahoo! News: Colons and semicolons always go outside quotation marks.
There seems to be some confusion over at Yahoo! News concerning the location of a colon relative to a closing quotation mark:
Two punctuation marks never go before a closing quotation mark: a colon and a semicolon.
Americans do things a little differently from the rest of the English-speaking word when it comes to punctuation. Unlike the rest of the world, we put periods and commas before a closing quotation mark. But there are two punctuation marks that always go after a closing quotation mark, regardless of the English-speaking country you're in: the colon and the semicolon. So, it doesn't matter where you read this headline on Yahoo! Shine, it's just wrong:
and so is this headline on Yahoo! News:
One writer, one article, lots of amusing gaffes. This must be Yahoo! Shine:
Some are minor, like neglecting the camel-case in YouTube. Others would embarrass any writer who takes pride in her work:
(A regiment is a military unit of ground troops or a large group of people. A regimen is a system intended to promote health or other beneficial effect.)
A bad headpiece includes a hyphen. Not such a gross error. But an Oreo cookie wearing glasses? Brilliant!
(That's actually a dangling participle — wearing is the participle (or verb acting as an adjective) and it's dangling because the noun it's supposed to modify is nowhere in sight. Instead, it appears to modify the noun following the participial phrase "wearing the glasses.")
The eyes, it seems, are a single window:
And extraneous words are the essentially the same as unnecessary words:
So, let's get to the point: This article sucks. It has its potential grammatical uses — but only as an example of what not to do.
What's wrong with this picture from Yahoo! News? Could it be the punctuation? Yes, yes it could.
In the U.S. a colon goes after a closing quotation mark. (A period and comma go before it — except in other English-speaking countries, where they go after it.) So, the location of the colon is wrong, but that's not the worst of it. The colon should actually be a comma.
Some writers are just apostrophe-happy, sticking them in all sorts of places where they don't belong. The writer for Yahoo! TV's "Primetime in No Time" is one of those people. He likes to use them for forming plurals. There are few times when an apostrophe is needed to form the plural of an abbreviation, and this isn't one of them:
The plural of DVD is DVDs. (Oops, I almost forgot to mention the misplaced comma; if you're in the U.S., it belongs before that closing quotation mark.)
This sentence isn't so bad, but I would've liked it a lot more if the writer had included all the words in this sentence:
It'd also be nice if he knew how to form the plural of favorites (hint: it doesn't involve an apostrophe). At least there's an apostrophe in '60s and '90s, though it's in the wrong place: For decades it's not used to show a plural, but to indicate that the numerals 19 are missing. Finally, where the heck was the spell-checker? Did it just step out for a latte? Anyone who writes should have a spell-checker. And should use it. It would have found the misspelling of Lincoln.
It's just a handful of grammatical (and other) goofs on Yahoo! Shine. (The errors pale in comparison to those the writer has made in the past, including more than 50 in a single article.) So, I won't be as hard on her this time, although I still feel a professional writer ought to be required to use a spell-checker, which would have avoided some of these embarrassments.
A spell-checker would have found this sleazy misspelling:
but would have OK'd this homophonic error:
This missing comma is one of the top 5 comma errors you'll find on Yahoo!, so maybe it's to be expected. The missing article a is also a common error, as is the extra word in what should be "but this time":
The plural of DJ is DJs (without an apostrophe), but that's just being nitpicky, isn't it?
It should be a two-way street; CBC News needs a little lift from the Shift key, and last-ditch is a compound modifier needing a little hyphenation:
So, this isn't that bad. Especially if it appeared in an elementary school newspaper.
I exaggerate. Yahoo! staffers have produced much worse writing than this blurb on Yahoo! Shine:
It does, however, contain a high error-to-word ratio, which could have been avoided if there was a competent editor involved in its creation.
That capitalized The in the movie title would be OK, if the writer had kept the colon after the word Presents. The comma that separates a subject from its verb is just plain wrong. The title of the movie "Super Size Me" is wrong, too. And the typo and is an easy one to spot and correct.
So, this isn't the worst writing. It's just typical of content from Yahoo!'s writers and editors, who are presumably paid to write. If only they were paid to write correctly…

Registration for the event is at www.NorthRidgeChurch.com/2MM. To make a donation, go to www.fmsc.org; NorthRidge Church Mobile Pack event.
NorthRidge Church has a big idea to help the hungry.
Brad Powell, senior pastor, and others hope to make a difference with the 2 Millon Meals Campaign.
One billion people are experiencing hunger, 66 million children go to school hungry, and 6,200 children die a day from poor nutrition, said Powell in announcing the campaign.
Its tragic, but it would be even more tragic if we did nothing, we can make a difference, he said. In 2011, NorthRidge packed 1,000,000 meals in three days with the help of 5,000 volunteers. When I first cast the vision, I wasnt sure what would happen. It was big, bold and unlike anything we had done before.
Not only did we reach our goal we blew it away. Through our 2014 initiative, we want to show Gods love to twice as many people, by packaging 2,000,000 meals in three days with 10,000 volunteers!
NorthRidge is partnering with Feed My Starving Children, a nonprofit Christian organization based in Minnesota. The organization produces a scientifically engineered food formula aimed at saving the lives of malnourished children. The formula consists of a mixture of rice, soy, dehydrated vegetables and 21 vitamins and minerals.
Volunteers from NorthRidge Churchs three campuses, which includes locations in Plymouth Township, Brighton and Saline, will be working almost nonstop Feb. 14-16 starting Friday at noon. until Sunday at 4 p.m. to reach its 2,000,000 meal goal. The packing will take place in 11 two-hour shifts, with 900 people packing during each shift, at the Suburban Collection Showplace Feb. 14-16 in Novi. The Showplace is donating 65,000 square feet of space for the event.
Within days of our announcement, we had over 4,000 volunteers sign up. People get excited to be a part of something big that changes them and their world, and we encourage participants to invite their family, friends, neighbors and co-workers. We look for opportunities to make a difference, said Michael Miller, director of Stewardship and Outreach.
Miller said that in addition to packing the meals organizers are raising the funds to pay for the meals. At 22 cents a meal, even our young kids can get involved and make a real difference. A $50 donation buys 227 meals, he said.
According to John Cherico, development adviser for FMSC, this is one of their largest events and will help FMSC finish their fiscal year with over 50 million Mobile Pack meals.

More bad news, I'm afraid. Those of you who hoped to avoid the experience of camping out in front of AT&T Wireless stores by ordering the iPhone by phone or online are out of luck. I just spoke with a second AT&T sales rep who confirmed what a previous lackey told me; AT&T will only be selling iPhone to customers through their corporate stores on a first come, first served basis. No pre-orders, and no orders by phone or through the web.
The rep I spoke with did not know for certain how long this policy would continue, but hinted that it would go on well past June 29. So, bottom line - if you want an iPhone you must get in line, literally.
Isn't this fun? I'm thinking of becoming an alcoholic to pass away the time. Who wants to join me in a drink?
More →
Public iPhone sightings are becoming increasingly common, so this photo isn't exactly shocking. It just further adds to our frustration. He has an iPhone and WE don't!
Along with the rollout of iPhone comes new data plan pricing, according to AppleInsider.
Meanwhile, Carter hinted that iPhone "may offer cool features such as unlimited Web browsing." However, customers should be prepared to pay extra for that luxury. "Regardless of which device you're using today, you pay us a certain amount for (voice) minutes, and you also pay us for data units," he said. "That is also true on the iPhone."
Wait, what? I already pay $19, on top of voice, for unlimited data, which includes all-you-can-eat web browsing. Is AT&T planning to further sodomize me with some form of premium iPhone-only data plan? In the words of the great Chinese philosopher, Confucius, "that's bullshit!".
[UPDATE:]Now AT&T is saying it will announce data pricing before launch day. Oh well, doesn't matter. The news won't be good. We're still getting screwed.
I must be part of the minority that doesn't like these TV ads. They just don't feel compelling, or alluring.
I'm less concerned about making my way through lines and more worried what will happen to me once I exit the store with iPhone in hand. I don't fancy having my new iPhone jacked by some street thug lurking around the parking lot, waiting to swoop down on unsuspecting victims as they approach their vehicles.
What AT&T needs more than anything is a constable standing outside its store to ensure that customers make it safely back to their cars.
Remember that mysterious unrevealed application that pushed the eleven default apps down into a nice even number, that caused such controversy? Well along with today's announcement from Apple, the company has posted a new video demo which reveals said application. It's YouTube.
Fresh from the PR department, Apple just sent me a release proclaiming that YouTube Live will be available on Apple TV starting today, and later on the iPhone starting this Friday. Huzzah!!!
Read the entire press release here.
And I thought only consumers would be lining up outside of AT&T stores. Apparently waves of job applicants are gearing up to snatch positions generated from all the iPhone buzz.
This image scares the hell out of me because it confirms that iPhone mania that we've all joked about may in fact turn out to be true. On Friday June 29, I and thousands of other consumers will standing in lines very similar to the one you see above, in order to get an iPhone. The thought that I may end up wasting my time in a long queue and coming home empty handed doesn't exactly sit well with me.
Saabira Chaudhuri of Fast Company believes iPhone doesn't have the chutzpah to capture the same success achieved by its cousin, the iPod.
The iPod set an impossibly high bar, one that the iPhone will not match or even come close to. But the new device could still be very successful, particularly in the long term. By combining a phone, a music player and an Internet device all in one, while coupling them with the most user friendly interface it could conceive of, Apple aims to embody one of the most fundamental ideals that underlies modern day consumerism: convenience.
AT&T's recently announced peer to peer content service, called Video Share, won't work with iPhone. Why? Because the service requires a 3G network connection. You know, 3G? That lamentedly lacking technology in iPhone?

Book Description: A renowned musician and visual artist presents an idiosyncratic behind-the-handlebars view of the world's citiesSince the early 1980s, David Byrne has been riding a bike as his principal means of transportation in New York City. Two decades ago, he discovered folding bikes and started taking them on tour. Byrne's choice was made out of convenience rather than political motivation, but the more cities he saw from his bicycle, the more he became hooked on this mode of transport and the sense of liberation it provided. Convinced that urban biking opens one's eyes to the inner workings and rhythms of a city's geography and population, Byrne began keeping a journal of his observations and insights. An account of what he sees and whom he meets as he pedals through metropoles from Berlin to Buenos Aires, Istanbul to San Francisco, Manila to New York, Bicycle Diaries also records Byrne's thoughts on world music, urban planning, fashion, architecture, cultural dislocation, and much more, all conveyed with a highly personal mixture of humor, curiosity, and humility. Part travelogue, part journal, part photo album, Bicycle Diaries is an eye-opening celebration of seeing the world from the seat of a bike.

I met with the producers of this show who happen to be 5th district constituents several months ago and urged the City Manager to do whatever to get this "diving with the stars" show booked at Belmont Pool.
There would not only be fees paid for its use, but the producers and I talked about how the City wanted to be the "Aquatics Capital of the World" and any publicity and donation of funds would be most appreciated.
I even connected them with Pat McCormick because I encouraged a local connection.
Then this month, whack. I get the news the City is closing down the pool.
So we lost out on a fantastic opportunity. What bad timing.

Antoinette Bruno: What inspired you to pursue cooking professionally?
Stephanie Prida: I wanted to be a painter and an artist. I wanted to be any kind of artist. Food is another kind of artistic outlet for people. I love food and can still work with food and products I love. I get inspired by art on the street and in museums.
AB: What's the toughest thing you've had to do in your job?
SP: At Blackbird, we had an elevator shaft. It flooded, and pastry was on the second floor. A piece of the ice cream machine fell into the shaft, and a pastry assistant and I had to swim through the elevator shaft to find a small piece of the ice cream machine.
AB: What person in history would you most like to cook for?
SP: Andy Warhol. I admire his bold artwork.
AB: What goes into creating a dish?
SP: I have a notebook of seasonal favorites. In the summer, I love working with strawberries, raspberries, and melons. Start with the ingredients and build on it.
AB: What advice would you offer to young cooks who are just getting started?
SP: Travel. Stage overseas.
AB: What ingredient do you feel is underappreciated?
SP: I like to use a lot of vinegars—apple cider vinegar, for example. I like sour things. We did a sourdough cake once. I also would like to see more yeasted dough in plated desserts.
AB: How involved are you in your local culinary community?
SP: I'm fairly new, so I'm still learning and getting involved in charities. Also, the dining scene here is comforting, and many Chicago chefs can do whatever they want. Chicago is a food-focused city. It's great to work with peers and chefs.
AB: What's next for you?
SP: I want to live abroad and move to France. I want to learn French and work there. I love the culture. I love French food, and it's the epicenter of food. The history behind French food is fascinating.

Biotechnology Consultation Note to the File BNF No. 000135
Return to inventory: Completed Consultations on Foods from Genetically Engineered Plant Varieties
See also Biotechnology: Genetically Engineered Plants for Food and Feed and about Submissions on Bioengineered New Plant Varieties
Biotechnology Consultation - Note to the File
Biotechnology Notification File BNF No. 000135
April 19, 2013
Dicamba- and Glufosinate-Tolerant MON 88701 Cotton
Keywords: Cotton, Gossypium sp., dicamba mono-oxygenase, phosphinothricin N-acetyltransferase, MON 88701, Monsanto, herbicide tolerant, Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, Streptomyces hygroscopicus, OECD Unique Identifier MON-887Ø1-3
This document summarizes our evaluation of biotechnology notification file (BNF) No. 000135. In a submission dated April 6, 2012, Monsanto Company (Monsanto) submitted to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) a safety and nutritional assessment of genetically engineered MON 88701 cotton, which is tolerant to the herbicides dicamba and glufosinate. Monsanto provided additional information on May 22, July 18, and September 10, 2012. FDA evaluated the information in Monsanto's submissions to ensure that regulatory and safety issues regarding the human food and animal feed from the new plant variety have been resolved prior to commercial distribution.
In our evaluation of BNF 000135, we considered all information provided by Monsanto as well as publicly available information and information in the agency's files. Here we discuss the outcome of the consultation, but do not intend to restate all the information provided in the final consultation.
Intended Effect
The intended effect of the modification in MON 88701 cotton is to produce dicamba- and glufosinate-tolerant cotton varieties.1 Monsanto states that the parental cotton variety was transformed with the codon optimized coding sequence of the dmo gene from Stenotrophomonas maltophilia and the coding sequence of the bar gene from Streptomyces hygroscopicus. The dmo gene encodes a dicamba mono-oxygenase protein (DMO), which confers tolerance to dicamba, and the bar gene encodes a phosphinothricin N-acetyltransferase protein (PAT (bar)), which confers tolerance to glufosinate.
Regulatory Considerations
The purpose of this evaluation is to assess whether Monsanto has introduced a substance requiring premarket approval as a food additive or use of the new plant variety in food or animal feed raises other regulatory issues with respect to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act).
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulates herbicides under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act and the FD&C Act. Under EPA regulations, the herbicides, metabolic by-products, and residues in MON 88701 cotton that result from detoxification of applied herbicides by the expression products of MON 88701 are considered pesticidal substances. Therefore, Monsanto plans to submit a regulatory submission to EPA for the expanded use of dicamba on MON 88701 cotton. Monsanto states that it will not pursue any changes in the established tolerances for the use of glufosinate on MON 88701 cotton.
Genetic Modification and Characterization
Parental Variety
Monsanto transformed the non-transgenic conventional cotton variety Coker 130 to develop MON 88701 cotton.
Transformation Vector and Method
Monsanto states that MON 88701 cotton was developed through Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation of Coker 130 hypocotyls with plasmid vector PV-GHHT6997. PV-GHHT6997 contains one T-DNA containing the dmo and bar expression cassettes. The DMO expression cassette consists of the following elements:
- the PC1SV promoter from the peanut chlorotic streak caulimovirus;
- the leader from the 5' untranslated region of the Tobacco Etch virus;
- the targeting sequence of the ShkG gene of Arabidopsis thaliana encoding the EPSPS chloroplast transit peptide (CTP2), which directs transport of the DMO protein to the chloroplast in MON 88701 cotton;
- the dmo coding sequence;2
- the 3' untranslated region of the E6 gene of Gossypium barbadense, which directs polyadenylation of the mRNA.
The bar expression cassette contains the following elements:
- the cauliflower mosaic virus e35S promoter containing a duplicated enhancer region;
- the leader from the 5' untranslated region of the Petunia hybrida DnaK gene;3
- the bar coding sequence from S. hygroscopicus;
- the 3' untranslated region of the A. tumefaciens nopaline synthase gene, which directs polyadenylation of the mRNA.
The T-DNA is delineated by left and right border regions, which facilitate transformation.
Monsanto selected the transformed plants with glufosinate to inhibit the growth of untransformed cells. R0 and R1 plants were screened for the presence of T-DNA and were evaluated for tolerance to dicamba and glufosinate. R1 plants homozygous for dmo and bar were self-pollinated to give rise to R2 plants.
Characterization, Inheritance, and Stability of the Introduced DNA
Monsanto characterized the introduced DNA, using Southern blot hybridization, polymerase chain reactions (PCR), and DNA sequence analyses. Southern blot analyses showed that MON 88701 cotton contains a single copy of the T-DNA inserted at a single locus in the genome and lacks any detectable plasmid backbone sequences.
According to Monsanto, PCR and DNA sequence analyses: 1) complemented the Southern blot analyses; 2) determined the complete DNA sequence of the T-DNA and flanking sequences; 3) confirmed the predicted organization of the genetic elements within the T-DNA, and 4) confirmed that each genetic element (except for the border regions) in the T-DNA is intact and that the sequence of the T-DNA is identical to the corresponding sequence in PV-GHHT6997.
During the development of MON 88701 cotton, Monsanto recorded segregation data to assess the stability of the introduced DNA in the genome and the heritability of the introduced DNA across generations. Southern blot analyses of genomic DNA from MON 88701 plants showed that the inserted DNA was stably maintained through five generations of breeding, confirming that the T-DNA is stably integrated into the genome. Chi-square analysis of the segregation data from three generations showed that the introduced DNA is inherited according to a Mendelian inheritance pattern of a single gene over multiple generations.
Monsanto conducted bioinformatic analyses on the six potential open reading frames (ORFs) in the inserted DNA and flanking DNA sequences. Based on these analyses, Monsanto concludes that even in the highly unlikely event of translation of these ORFs, the putative polypeptides are unlikely to be allergenic, toxic, or biologically active.
Identity, Function, and Characterization
DMO is a non-heme iron oxygenase that transports electrons from ferredoxin to the non-heme iron domain. The active enzyme is a trimer comprised of a reductase, a ferredoxin, and a terminal oxygenase. Diverse groups of organisms ranging from bacteria to plants produce oxygenases that humans and animals consume.
The dmo coding sequence within MON 88701 cotton produces a precursor protein consisting of the MON 88701 protein and CTP2. CTP2 improves targeting of the precursor protein to the chloroplast and is later removed to produce the full-length protein. MON 88701 cotton produces a form of DMO in which a fragment of CTP2 remains.
MON 88701 DMO has a sequence identical to wild type DMO protein from S. maltophilia with two exceptions: 1) MON 88701 DMO has nine amino acids on its N-terminus derived from CTP2, and 2) MON 88701 DMO has an additional leucine at position two. These amino acid differences are not expected to affect the structure, activity, or specificity of MON 88701 DMO because the N-terminus and position two are sterically distant from the protein's catalytic site.
Monsanto assessed whether DMO can metabolize endogenous substrates present in MON 88701 cotton. Monsanto conducted in vitro experiments using a purified DMO, produced in Escherichia coli. This purified DMO contains an N-terminal tag containing histidine residues that was used in purifying the protein. Beyond this histidine-containing tag, this purified DMO is identical to DMO from S. maltophilia. The potential metabolic activity of DMO was tested on a set of substrates (o-anisic, vanillic, syringic, ferulic, and sinapic acids) endogenous to cotton with structural similarity to dicamba. Dicamba was used as a positive control to demonstrate that the assay system was functional. The purified DMO did not metabolize any of the tested substrates in the assay. Therefore, Monsanto concludes that MON 88701 DMO is specific for dicamba.
Monsanto also assessed whether MON 88701 DMO has the same specificity as the purified DMO used in the in vitro experiments described above. Monsanto purified an E. coli-produced MON 88701 DMO confirmed to be biochemically, structurally, and functionally equivalent to MON 88701 DMO produced in cotton.4 Monsanto tested the potential metabolic activity of E. coli-produced MON 88701 DMO with o-anisic acid (the endogenous compound with the greatest structural similarity to dicamba). E. coli-produced MON 88701 DMO did not metabolize o-anisic acid. Based on these results, Monsanto concludes that DMO, including MON 88701 DMO, is specific for dicamba.
MON 88701 DMO Expression Level
Monsanto measured MON 88701 DMO levels using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). MON 88701 cottonseed, pollen, root, and over-season leaf (OSL-1 through OSL-4) from eight field sites were analyzed.5 The levels of MON 88701 DMO across the tissue types ranged from below the limit of detection to 410 micrograms per gram dry weight (μg/g DW). The mean DMO concentrations (in μg/g DW) in MON 88701 cotton were 180 to 240 for leaf, 43 for root, and 21 for seed, and 14 μg/g fresh weight for pollen.6
Safety of the Donor Organism
Monsanto states that the dmo gene used to develop MON 88701 cotton is derived from S. maltophilia. S. maltophilia is an aerobic, Gram-negative, environmentally ubiquitous bacterium found in aquatic environments, household environments, soil, and plants. According to Monsanto, humans are exposed to S. maltophilia through consumption of ready-to-eat salads, vegetables, frozen fish, milk, and poultry. Published reports show that S. maltophilia is found in healthy individuals and does not cause harmful effects. The published literature also shows that S. maltophilia strains reside in the transient flora of hospitalized patients as commensal organisms and, similar to the indigenous bacteria of the gastrointestinal tract, can be opportunistic pathogens. Published reports suggest that human infections with S. maltophilia are rare and occur almost exclusively in hospital settings. S. maltophilia has not been reported to be a source of allergens. Based on this information, Monsanto concludes that S. maltophilia is a safe donor organism.
Assessment of Potential for Allergenicity and Toxicity
Monsanto states that the only human foods currently produced from cottonseed are refined, bleached, and deodorized (RBD) oil and linters, both of which contain negligible concentrations of protein. Nonetheless, Monsanto assessed the potential for allergenicity and toxicity of MON 88701 DMO.
To assess the potential allergenicity of MON 88701 DMO, Monsanto used the FASTA algorithm to compare the MON 88701 DMO amino acid sequence to amino acid sequences in the publicly available allergen, gliadin, and glutenin protein sequence database (AD_2011 database, Food Allergen Research and Resource Program, release date: February 18, 2011). According to Monsanto, no relevant sequence similarities (i.e. sequence alignments displaying an E-score of less than or equal to 1 x 10-5) were detected between the amino acid sequence of MON 88701 DMO and sequences in the AD_2011 database. Furthermore, no sequence alignment met or exceeded the threshold of 35% identity over 80 amino acids. Monsanto also performed an eight amino acid sliding window search to detect short linear polypeptide matches to known or suspected allergens in the AD_2011 database. No eight contiguous amino acids were detected when the MON 88701 DMO amino acid sequence was compared to sequences in the AD_2011 database. Monsanto states that the results of these analyses show that there are no structurally or immunologically relevant similarities between the amino acid sequence of MON 88701 DMO and sequences of known allergens, gliadins, and glutenins.
Monsanto tested the digestibility and heat stability of E. coli-produced MON 88701 DMO. Monsanto states that MON 88701 DMO is rapidly degraded in vitro in simulated gastric fluid and in simulated intestinal fluid. Additionally, in vitro analyses show that MON 88701 DMO remains intact, but is not catalytically active at temperatures of 55°C and above (commonly used during standard cotton processing). Monsanto concludes that in the unlikely event that cottonseed oil or linters would contain protein, MON 88701 DMO protein, if consumed, would not be catalytically active.
Monsanto used the FASTA algorithm to compare the MON 88701 DMO amino acid sequence to amino acid sequences in the toxin database, obtained as a subset of protein sequences from GenBank, which it refers to as the TOX_2011 database. The TOX_2011 database contains amino acid sequences of proteins that may be harmful to human and animal health. According to Monsanto, the results of the sequence comparisons found no relevant alignments (i.e., alignments displaying an E-score of less than or equal to 1 x 10-5) between the MON 88701 DMO amino acid sequence and sequences in the TOX_2011 database. Monsanto thus concludes that no sequence similarity exists between MON 88701 DMO and any known protein toxins or other biologically active proteins that would be harmful to human or animal health.
Monsanto conducted an acute oral toxicity study to further assess the potential for toxicity of MON 88701 DMO. Mice (10 male and 10 female) were given a single dose of 283 milligram per kilogram body weight (mg/kg bw) MON 88701 DMO by oral gavage or a comparable level of bovine serum albumin. This level was chosen based on margin of exposure and solubility of the protein. According to Monsanto, no treatment-related effects on survival, clinical observations, body weight gain, food consumption, or gross pathology were observed after 14 days in mice administered MON 88701 DMO .
Based on the results of the safety studies discussed above, Monsanto concludes that MON 88701 DMO does not pose a significant health risk to humans or animals.
PAT (bar)
Identity, Function, and Characterization
PAT (bar) is an acetyltransferase that acetylates the free amine group of L-phosphinothricin (a form of glufosinate) to produce the inactive metabolite N-acetyl glufosinate. PAT proteins have been isolated from two species of Streptomyces. The PAT protein isolated from S. hygroscopicus is encoded by the bar gene, and the PAT protein isolated from Streptomyces viridochromogenes is encoded by the pat gene. Monsanto states that the PAT protein produced in MON 88701 cotton is encoded by the bar gene, and is thus referred to as PAT (bar). Monsanto states that PAT (bar) is identical to the wild type PAT protein produced in S. hygroscopicus. PAT (bar) is analogous to PAT proteins produced in numerous commercially available glufosinate-tolerant plant varieties.
Monsanto conducted in vitro competition assays to assess whether PAT (bar) can metabolize substrates other than glufosinate. Addition of high concentrations of amino acids (including L-glutamate, a glufosinate analogue) did not inhibit glufosinate acetylation by PAT (bar). The results show that PAT (bar) has more than 30-fold higher affinity towards L-phosphinothricin over alternative substrates tested in the assay. Based on these data, Monsanto concludes that PAT (bar) is highly specific for L-phosphinothricin and is unlikely to affect the metabolism of MON 88701 cotton.
PAT (bar) Expression Level
Monsanto measured PAT (bar) levels in MON 88701 cotton using an ELISA.7 MON 88701 cottonseed, pollen, root, and OSL-1 through OSL-4 from eight field sites were analyzed. The levels of PAT (bar) across the tissue types ranged from below the limit of quantitation to 10 μg/g DW. The mean PAT (bar) levels (μg/g DW) were 6.6 for seed, 3.2 to 6.4 for leaf, 1.8 for root, and 0.56 μg/g FW for pollen.
Safety of the Donor Organism
Monsanto states that the bar gene introduced into the parental cotton variety is derived from S. hygroscopicus. S. hygroscopicus is a saprophytic, soil-borne bacterium that is widespread in the environment. The published literature shows that human exposure to S. hygroscopicus is common, and the organism is not considered pathogenic to plants, humans, or other animals. The history of safe use of S. hygroscopicus is documented in the literature, and no safety or allergenicity issues have been identified during evaluations of several glufosinate-tolerant events. Monsanto thus concludes that S. hygroscopicus is a safe donor organism.
Equivalence Assessment
The analytical methods that were used to characterize DMO were also used to demonstrate that E. coli-produced PAT (bar) is equivalent to that produced in MON 88701 cotton.
Assessment of Potential for Allergenicity and Toxicity
Monsanto states that the safety of PAT (bar) expressed in genetically engineered crops has been extensively assessed and that no concerns have been identified. Monsanto cites a published study demonstrating the safety of the donor organism, lack of amino acid sequence homology to known allergens, rapid degradation in gastric and intestinal fluids, and loss of functional activity following heat treatment. The results of bioinformatic analyses show that PAT (bar) lacks structurally and immunologically relevant sequence similarity to known allergens, gliadins, and glutenins. The results of in vitro analyses show that PAT (bar) is rapidly degraded in vitro in simulated gastric fluid and in simulated intestinal fluid. The results of in vitro analyses show that PAT (bar) is catalytically inactivated at temperatures of 75°C and above (commonly used during standard cotton processing); therefore, in the unlikely event that oil or linters from MON 88701 cotton would contain protein, PAT (bar) would not be consumed as a catalytically active protein in food.
To assess the potential for toxicity of PAT (bar), Monsanto conducted an acute oral toxicity study in which mice (ten male and ten female) were given a single dose of 1086 mg/kg bw of PAT (bar) or a comparable level of bovine serum albumin. Monsanto chose this level based on principles of hazard identification and margin of exposure. According to Monsanto, no treatment-related effects on survival, clinical observations, body weight gain, food consumption, or gross pathology were observed after 14 days in mice administered PAT (bar).
Based on the information discussed above, Monsanto concludes that PAT (bar) does not pose a significant health risk to humans or animals.
Food & Feed Uses of Cotton
Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is grown worldwide as a source of fiber for the textile industry. Cottonseed, which is a by-product of fiber production, is used in human food, animal feed, and a range of industrial products. Food uses of cottonseed include cottonseed oil and cotton linters. Cottonseed oil is highly refined to remove naturally occurring toxicants, gossypol, and cyclopropenoid fatty acids (CPFAs). Cottonseed oil is primarily consumed as a salad or cooking oil, for frying, in mayonnaise, and shortening. Cotton linters are short fibers that remain on cotton seeds after the long fibers have been removed at the ginning process for textile manufacturing. They are removed from the seeds and processed into pure cellulose, which is used in casings for bologna, sausages, and frankfurters and in ice cream and salad dressings.
Whole cottonseed, cottonseed meal, hulls, and cotton gin trash are used in animal feeds for cattle, sheep, goats, horses, poultry, swine, fish, and shrimp. Cottonseed meal is the product obtained after removal of oil from whole cottonseed flakes or cake and is used as a protein supplement in animal feed. Cottonseed hulls are used as a source of fiber in feeds.
Scope of Analysis
Monsanto assessed the similarities and differences in the compositions of acid de-linted cottonseed from MON 88701 cotton and the conventional control variety Coker 130 (hereafter referred to as the control). The compositional analyses included key nutrients and anti-nutrients. Monsanto also assessed the composition of acid de-linted cottonseed from nine reference cotton varieties (hereafter referred to as reference varieties). The reference varieties were different sets of four conventional cotton varieties per site grown under the same field conditions as MON 88701 cotton and control. Monsanto used data obtained from the nine reference varieties to generate a 99% tolerance interval for each component (hereafter referred to as the 99% tolerance interval). Monsanto used the data from the reference varieties to establish a range of natural variability for each component in conventional cotton varieties with a history of safe consumption grown under the same conditions.
Study Design
Monsanto states that cottonseed was obtained from plants grown in four replicate plots, planted at each of eight field sites across the U.S. in a randomized complete block design during the 2010 growing season. MON 88701 plots were treated at the three-to five leaf stage with glufosinate herbicide and at the six-to-ten leaf stage with dicamba herbicide. Monsanto assessed the data sets using a mixed model of variance. Nine sets of statistical analyses were conducted: eight based on compositional data from each of the replicated field sites and one based on data combined across all eight field sites (combined site). The levels calculated from analytical data for each component obtained from individual sites and the data aggregated from all sites for MON 88701 cotton were compared with those of the control. Statistical significance was declared at 5% level (p ≤ 0.05). Monsanto excluded components from statistical analysis if fewer than 50% of the observed values were at or below the limit of quantitation. When a statistically significant difference in a component was detected between MON 88701 cotton and control, Monsanto assessed whether the difference was biologically meaningful from a food and feed safety or nutritional perspective. This analysis included assessing reproducibility across individual sites, magnitude of differences, and comparing the mean value for each component in MON 88701 cotton with the respective 99% tolerance interval and its levels in the published literature, including the International Life Sciences Institute Crop Composition Database (ILSI-CCD, 2011).
Results of analyses:
Monsanto reports the results of compositional analysis for key components in cottonseed: proximates (ash, carbohydrates (by calculation), fat, moisture, crude fiber, and crude protein), acid detergent fiber (ADF), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), total dietary fiber (TDF), 18 amino acids, fatty acids (C8-C22), nine minerals, and vitamin E. For the combined-site analysis, Monsanto observed statistically significant differences for some proximates (ash, carbohydrates (by calculation), moisture, and total fat), fiber (ADF, NDF, and TDF), three amino acids (arginine, methionine, and proline), two fatty acids (14:0 myristic acid and 18:2 linoleic acid), five minerals (calcium, magnesium, manganese, potassium, and zinc) and vitamin E in MON 88701 when compared with the control. Monsanto notes that differences between the means of these components for MON 88701 cotton and control were small. Mean values for MON 88701 cotton components that were statistically different from the control in the combined-site analysis were within the 99% tolerance intervals, except for methionine values. All component values, including methionine, were within the ranges reported in the literature, including ILSI-CCD.
Monsanto analyzed cottonseed for five anti-nutrients (dihydrosterculic acid, malvalic acid, sterculic acid, free gossypol, and total gossypol). Monsanto reports statistically significant differences between MON 88701 cotton and the control for dihydrosterculic acid, free gossypol, and total gossypol. The differences between the MON 88701 cotton and control mean values for each of these anti-nutrients were small in magnitude and the mean value for MON 88701 cotton for each of these components fell within the established 99% tolerance interval and within the range of literature values.
Summary of Compositional Analyses
Monsanto states that the compositional assessment supports its conclusion that MON 88701 cotton is compositionally equivalent to conventional cotton varieties. Therefore, Monsanto concludes that the differences in the observed levels of components between MON 88701 cotton and other cotton varieties are not meaningful for food and feed safety or nutrition.
FDA evaluated Monsanto's submission to determine whether MON 88701 cotton raises any safety or regulatory issues with respect to the intended modifications or with respect to the food and feed itself. Based on the information provided by the company and other information available to the agency, FDA did not identify any safety or regulatory issues under the FD&C Act that would require further evaluation at this time.
Monsanto concludes that, with the exception of the intended modifications (tolerance to dicamba and glufosinate herbicides), MON 88701 cotton and foods and feeds derived from it are not materially different in composition, safety, or any other relevant parameter from other cotton varieties now grown, marketed, and consumed in the U.S. At this time, based on Monsanto's data and information, the agency considers Monsanto's consultation on MON 88701 cotton to be complete.
Shayla West-Barnette, Ph.D.
1Monsanto states that MON 88701 cotton will be combined with other herbicide-tolerant (including glyphosate) events using traditional breeding techniques.
2The dmo coding sequence, optimized for expression in cotton, encodes for a DMO protein similar to that produced by S. maltophilia.
3P. hybrida DnaK gene encodes heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70).
4The analytical techniques included N-terminal sequence analysis, mass determination of the tryptic peptides by MALDI-TOF MS, SDS-PAGE, Western hybridization analysis, MON 88701 DMO activity analysis, and glycosylation analysis.
5MON 88701 cotton was treated at the 3-5 leaf stage with glufosinate herbicide at the label rate and at the 6-10 leaf stage with dicamba at the label rate.
6Due to a limited amount of tissue, moisture content was not measured for pollen; therefore, Monsanto reports pollen on a fresh weight basis only.
7The tissue samples used to measure PAT (bar) levels were the same as those used to measure DMO levels.

Cincinnati Art Museum seeks new director; Aaron Betsky steps down
Aaron Betsky, director of the Cincinnati Art Museum for seven years, announced Thursday he'll step down.
Cincinnati's WVXU reported that the museum's board will set up a search committee, and that Betsky will help pick his successor. Betsky, an architect, oversaw the first phase of a renovation for which he helped raise more $13 million, and increased the art museum's endowment by 18 percent. His leadership was at times controversial, as when he oversaw an exhibit by artist Todd Pavlisko that included firing a .30-caliber rifle in the 132-year-old museum's Schmidlapp Gallery.
Frank Lloyd Wright to open balcony for home studio tours
Frank Lloyd Wright fans have had plenty to celebrate lately. In December the Prairie School architect's first independent commission, the William Winslow House, went up for sale. Now there's more good news, reports Blair Kamin for the Chicago Tribune: the balcony over Wright's studio in Oak Park, Ill. will be open to the public during tours for the first time in 40 years.
The Frank Lloyd Wright Trust will give two guided home and studio tours each day starting March 21, at 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. An installation on the balcony at 951 Chicago Ave. in Oak Park will celebrate Wright's work and that of his colleagues Marion Mahony Griffin, Walter Burley Griffin, and William Drummond.
Wright, 22 at the time, designed the home studio for his family in 1889.
Indianapolis Moves to Privatize Parks
Indianapolis' public parks system, Indy Parks, is looking for third parties interested in privatizing some or all of the city's parks and recreation holdings. The move follows last year's survey seeking ways to upgrade the city's 207 parks properties.
Zip Lines Over the Ohio River? Louisville Designer Says It's Possible
Louisville, Kentucky has asked its residents for help in determining the future vision for the city, and citizens sent in thousands of ideas on how to improve Possibility City. Among the crowd-sourced suggestions were many promoting alternative transportation, whether improving bike infrastructure to building light rail to, well, even more alternative methods of getting around.
Local Russ Renbarger proposed what he calls RiverZips, a mile-long zip line across the Ohio River that would convey people between Kentucky and Indiana—more of a ride than an adventure, says Insider Louisville.
Minneapolis City Council to vote on mixed-use makeover for Downtown East neighborhood
In its last scheduled meeting of the year, Minneapolis City Council could give the go-ahead on a $400 million mixed-use development near the new Vikings stadium. Surface parking lots currently occupy much of that land.
The Minneapolis Star-Tribune editorial board called the Downtown East neighborhood "a part of the city's commercial core in desperate need of new life." The newspaper stands to benefit from the project, as the editorial announces—they plan to sell five blocks of nearby property, including their current headquarters, and move downtown.
Chicago's Divvy bikeshare wants your help placing new stations
Chicago's Divvy bikesharing program wants your help placing new bicycle rental stations throughout the city. The Divvy Siting Team will consider your suggestions at suggest.divvybikes.com—they've already mapped many public suggestions alongside the 300 existing stations.
Last month the program announced its intent to become North America's largest bikesharing system. Divvy will add 175 stations by the end of 2014 and, pending state and federal funding, bring another 75 online after that, raising the total to 550 stations.
As it expands, Divvy could address previous criticisms about equal access. Though it started by focusing on the Loop and other high-density downtown areas, the program has expanded into many neighborhoods. Still, many are unserved—Uptown is the northern terminus, while much of the West, Southwest, and South Sides have no stations.
On View> The Indianapolis Museum of Art Presents "Impressed: Modern Japanese Prints"
Impressed: Modern Japanese Prints
Indianapolis Museum of Art
4000 Michigan Road, Indianapolis, IN
Through January 26, 2014
In traditional Japanese woodblock printing, a team of four artists worked to create a single piece. In this collaboration, the publisher directed the designer, the engraver, and the printer to apply their respective artisan skills for the creation of a final artwork. During the early 20th century, however, a new printmaking method arose in Japan, transforming the group project into an independent endeavor. The Sosaku hanga, "creative prints," school of printmakers became the first solo artists in Japanese woodblock printing, designing and executing every aspect of their artworks by their own hand.
Currently on exhibit at the Indianapolis Museum of Art is a collection of these masterpieces, including some the best known Sosaku hanga printmakers from the last century. Running through January 26, Impressed: Modern Japanese Prints explores the effects of blossoming individualism on woodblock prints. Distinguished by intricate detailing and the look of a highly texturized surface, the exhibition's display of print works by Tajima Hiroyuki, Iwami Reika, Saito Kiyoshi, and Maki Haku shows that artists of this movement considered the woodblock print an art form, not a commercial venture.
McDonald's Development Flares Urbanist Tensions in Cleveland
Cleveland's conflicting development pressures came to a head last week over one avenue on the city's West Side, and whether its future holds car-oriented businesses like McDonald's or lanes for public transit and bike paths.
The Plain Dealer's Steven Litt reported on developers' plans to suburbanize the area around Lorain Avenue at Fulton Road: "Residents hate the idea with a passion," he wrote.
Northwestern University Picks Perkins + Will for Prentice Tower Replacement
Perkins + Will's beveled, glassy facade looks likely to replace to a modernist icon whose long battle for preservation ended earlier this year.
Last month Northwestern Memorial Hospital released three finalist designs for its new biomedical research center, the successor to Bertrand Goldberg's partially demolished Old Prentice Women's Hospital. Northwestern spokesperson Alan Cubbage told the Tribune, "the combination of the elegant design and the functionality of the floor plans were key."

If you guys looked closely you'd notice very few of the hand gestures are the same. Even the gestures that are same gesture are drawn differently. I like this design. And even though they aren't the same they still look like Mickey's hand which was the point I guess. Relax everyone and be nice.
I love this, especially on the grey! 5!
Great retro look. Don't get the word? Is it supposed to say attack? Otherwise really like this look and message.
Step away from the computer and back to some good old fashioned idea sketching. Thumbnails on a pad, fill up the pad, choose your favourite idea and then go back to the computer. Otherwise the style is nice.
I love this, how surreal. Also love the colour choice, very down to earth. 5!

Gene Simmons IS 'Smarter Than a Fifth Grader'
This is enough to set apart the KISS singer on a celebrity version of "Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?"
The clip is actually part of Sunday night's (May 9) "Gene Simmons Family Jewels" on A&E. During the episode, reality show producer Mark Burnett convinces Simmons to take part in "Fifth Grader" for charity.
Simmons actually gets pretty far, schooling those fifth graders, although he doesn't go all the way. Check out the big brains on Gene, courtesy of TV Replay.

Never-wed Gene Simmons angling to be a 'Marriage Ref'
Photo credit: A&E/FOX
Loved the show last night. At first I thought, what a scum bag for stealing college kids marketing ideals and passing them as your own. But then he gave the winning design $20,000. So it was real cool.
Gene Simmons always was and will be a jackass! He's even dumber than any kind of grader.
I love Gene Simmons! He's smart, a great father and "boyfriend" and business man. I love his show, and his kids are the best along with Shannon.
What's your problem, Pierre? Don't like him cause he doesn't drink or do drugs or cheat on Shannon? You are the JACKASS!
I agree Lctcraft. The man is a giant in business and who could ask for a better family than his. Two wonderful kids and a wife that understands him. I guess Pierre doesn't like him because he markets himself.

August 3, 2012, TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE) -- Professor Meowingtons Enterprises along with SOL REPUBLIC, committed to changing the world one listener at a time with high-quality headphones, today announced the world's first headphones for cats. Previously known for his work with music producer deadmau5, Meowingtons designed these headphones to bring great sound and style to felines around the world.
"For too long, felines around the world have had to listen to music solely through speakers, or through ill-fitting headphones designed for humans," Prof. Meowingtons said through an interpreter. "My SOL REPUBLIC headphones for cats are the world's first headphones designed by cats, for cats. Our extensive testing has indicated that the headphones will also fit small dogs, but they are not for dogs. I'm not kidding, don't even think about putting these things on a dog."
Designed by famed digital artist Joshua Davis, a frequent collaborator of deadmau5 and fan of Prof. Meowingtons, these headphones look good on the ears or even around the neck. Engineered for durability and easy to adjust, cats of almost all shapes and sizes will be able to feel the music. Headphones for huskier cats may be available in the future.
Featuring i4 Sound Engines, cats will experience deep bass and clear highs while listening to their favorite jams.
Only 10 SOL REPUBLIC and Professor Meowingtons, pHd, Limited Edition cat headphones will be available at boutique pet and specialty retailers American Rag LA, Dave's WEAR House and Canine Styles (West Village location) in NYC, as well as at SOLREPUBLIC.com in August for an MSRP of $999.00 USD. ASPCA® is the sole beneficiary of all proceeds raised from the sale of these limited edition cat headphones.
DISCLAIMER: This product is not intended for use with animals. Any use as cat headphones must have the prior approval of a veterinarian.
SOL REPUBLIC is global consumer electronics company dedicated to enhancing people's lives through better-sounding headphones. Comprised of music fanatics, SOL REPUBLIC develops its products from the ground up to make headphones that look, sound and feel unlike anything else in the market. SOL REPUBLIC has offices in California, Oregon and New York City and is developing an army of followers, fans and dreamers in its worldwide social media communities.
Perhaps their presence at the Olympics will increase the use of over-ear headphones. Here's a link to their other models - http://www.solrepublic.com/headphones/sol-republic-tracks

If you haven't followed Olympic swimming, you haven't seen Michael Phelps modeling the entire Sol Republic line...

From the NY Times, "Kevin Lee, chief executive of Sol Republic, said he did not know that Phelps would be wearing his company's headphones during the Games. He said he was thrilled, but not surprised, that so many Olympians were using premium models."
The best guerilla marketing ever accomplished at the Olympics was an accident? Really?

The artwork by Serena Fick of Carver and Willow Pope of Fort Lewis will hang in the General Assembly Building during the upcoming legislative session.
Habeeb issued this release about the contest:
The winners, selected from Elementary, Middle and High School and from Montgomery, Craig and Roanoke Counties, as well as the City of Salem, are:
• Serena Fick – 4th Grade – G.W. Carver Elementary School
• Garrett East – 5th Grade – Eastern Montgomery Elementary School
• Willow Pope – 5th Grade – Fort Lewis Elementary
• Alexxa Forrester – 8th Grade – Craig County Middle School
• Courtney Johnston – 12th Grade – Hidden Valley High School
Commenting on the results of the art contest, Delegate Habeeb said:
"I would like to congratulate the winners on their excellent artwork. They have demonstrated creativity and ability that should make our region proud. I would like to thank all the students who submitted art. Every piece in some way captured the beauty of Virginia whether it was from our rich historical heritage to the beauty of our environment. We are all very lucky to call Virginia home.
"I would also like to thank the parents, teachers and administrators who encouraged these students to submit their artwork. We should continue to encourage and uplift our students to grow academically, athletically and creatively. The arts are an integral part of a well-rounded education and I'm proud to showcase the artistic ability of students in our region."
The winning artwork will hang in the General Assembly Building in Richmond during the upcoming legislative session.

Another week, another strong showing for U.S. equities: The Dow Jones Industrials gained 2.06% for the quarter. The S&P 500 gained 2.29%, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq gained a moderate 2.84%.
Major Equity Indexes
Index | One-week Performance (%) |
SPDR S&P 500 Trust (SPY) | +2.29 |
Powershares QQQ Trust (QQQ) | +2.84 |
SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average (DIA) | +2.06 |
In the meantime, gold and silver accelerated their descent with SPDR Gold Shares (GLD) losing 5.8%, iShares Silver Trust (SLV) losing 4.1%. And Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold (FCX) ended the week flat.
Major Precious Metals ETFs
ETF | One-week Performance (%) |
SPDR Gold Shares | -5.80 |
iShares Silver Trust | -4.1 |
Freeport-McMoRan Copper and Gold | 0.0 |
What's in the cards for the new quarter? Wall Street will face four challenges:
The first challenge is the state and the direction of the big picture, the U.S. and the world economies -- most notably the inflation rate, housing, and the industrial sector. Any surprise here could unravel markets, especially after the weak employment and retail sales reports in the last two weeks.
Indicator | Consensus Estimate | Last Period |
March CPI | 0.0% | 0.7 |
March Housing Starts | 930,000 | 917,000 |
March Industrial Production | 0.2% | 0.8 |
March Capacity Utilization | 78.4 | 78.3 |
March leading indicators | 0.1% | 0.5% |
April Philadelphia | 3.0% | 2.0% |
The second challenge will come from speeches from Fed officials, which will provide further insight on the fate of quantitative easing (QE) -- William Dudley and Janet Yellen on Tuesday morning, and James Bullard on Wednesday. A confirmation of an early exit, for instance, could support and reenforce the bearish sentiment in the precious metals markets.
The third challenge will come from the IMF report on the World Economic outlook on Tuesday and the G-20 meeting on Friday, which will help investors get more insight about the state of the world economy. Most notably, investors should look for clues of a further rift between the U.S. on the one side and China and Japan on the other regarding currency intervention. The U.S. criticized both countries over the weekend on this issue.
The fourth, and most important challenge, is a string of earnings from bellwether companies in the financial sector like CitiGroup (C), Goldman Such (GS), and Morgan Stanley (MS); the consumer sector with Coca-Cola (KO); and the technology sector with Intel (INTC). Again, any major negative surprise here would raise doubts as to whether the equities rally can continue on liquidity alone -- though each of these companies has its own company-specific issues. Intel, for instance, is still in the declining PC business, while CitiGroup is still in the grip of the Treasury Department.
The bottom line: Keep an eye on the big picture, the Fed, the IMF, and the small picture -- the earnings of bellwether companies.

Getting a Table at Ellen's Stardust Diner
Taking my grandaughter pre theatre Saturday night. Since they don't take reservations, best strategic time to show up? And how long a wait for a table.
I was to Ellen's Stardust Diner once after a show and there was no trouble getting a table. As far as the food is concerned it's really not worth going to, although it was not dirty when I was there.
Am I assuming correctly this is a place your granddaughter has her heart set on going to? If so, then far be it from us to dissuade you from going. Perhaps a call to the restaurant will help to answer your question if no one here can help you.
Enjoy your evening with your granddaughter!

A battle of personalities in 9th District
In June, he decisively won a campaign that could have sent him into retirement by telling voters he is a fighter, and Rep. Bill Pascrell shows no sign he would change if he wins another term Tuesday.
"People in politics who like to play defense usually do it because they don't want to make a decision," said, Pascrell, D-Paterson. "I like to go on offense."
He battled against House Republicans trying to repeal the Affordable Care Act, and was specifically given a position on the budget committee last year to be a vocal opponent to deep budget cuts.
And he beat Rep. Steve Rothman in a hard-fought and bitter June primary after Rothman moved to Englewood from what became a Republican-leaning district after redistricting.
Sometimes, however, his combative style is over the top. Twice in recent years Pascrell made speeches on the House floor that Republicans complained breached rules requiring decorum, and his remarks were stricken from the Congressional Record.
After one of the incidents, the Republican who had objected said he "thanked the gentleman for apologizing." A clearly angry Pascrell responded, "Don't push me."
The National Republican Congressional Committee has vilified Pascrell in news releases, accusing him of supporting bigger government and tax increases that would kill jobs.
And Republican opponent Shmuley Boteach, an Englewood rabbi who once starred on a reality TV show that counseled couples on how to avoid fighting and conflict, says Pascrell is not fighting hard enough for votes this fall because the new 9th District was drawn to favor Democratic candidates and he does not think he has to.
But for those who feel Pascrell is fighting for them, including firefighters who became eligible for federal aid for equipment and personnel through laws Pascrell sponsored, and advocates for funds for brain injury research and treatment he helped secure, his support crosses party lines.
He also has a back-slapping style honed in street-level politics in Paterson that has helped him build friendships with Republicans in Washington and North Jersey.

Provence Day 2
Today we headed out of Avignon through the Provence country side south to the city of Les Baux to visit the historic area. It was a beautiful drive through endless round abouts, thank God for our navigation system.
On the return we drove through the small quaint town of St. Remy. There was minimal parking as a bull fight was about to begin.

This place dates back to 34BC and it was truly impressive. Just sitting in the arena gave you a feel of what it was like to listen to a show so many years ago. The way this audio tour was presented and the video footage was brilliant. It really gave you a good insight into what was known about the place and ...
