At the Forge - Scriptaculous
Effects are certainly an important and impressive part of Scriptaculous; the library comes with many effects, and there are numerous ways to combine and invoke them. However, Scriptaculous offers much more than merely a bunch of effects. It also includes some user-level functionality JavaScript programmers might want.
One such example, popularized by Google Suggest (and its cousin in Firefox 2.0) is an autocompleting text field. Such a text field lets you enter whatever contents you want, but if what you have entered so far matches a known text string, you are offered the chance to complete it. This is similar in many ways to the combo box widget that was long popular on Windows systems, but which was unavailable to Web applications. (Some Scriptaculous users have created derivatives of the Autocompleter class that is more similar to a combo box.)
Scriptaculous comes with two different types of autocompleting text fields, differing only in how the completion list is filled. In the first case, known as Autocompleter.Local, the list of matches is set in JavaScript. The related text field, Ajax.Autocompleter, uses Ajax to retrieve a list of matches from a remote HTTP server. The two are similar enough in spirit that I demonstrate only Autocompleter.Local here for the sake of simplicity.
In order to use Autocompleter.Local, we first create a text field, just as we would do in an HTML form:
<input type="text" id="distro" name="distro_text_field" autocomplete="off" />
Notice that I have included the setting autocomplete="off" in the above field. The autocomplete attribute, which is used only by Microsoft's Internet Explorer, is set here to off to ensure that IE users aren't unpleasantly surprised by dueling completion systems.
Next, we create a
 section with an ID attribute. In addition, we set the style attribute to keep the div hidden until we modify its styling:

Finally, we add some JavaScript that creates a new Autocompleter.Local object:

The constructor for Autocompleter.Local takes four arguments: the ID of the text field, the ID of the div into which we'll insert completions, an array containing the completion strings and a set of options (currently empty). If you try to put this code in the  of your document, it will fail with odd errors, because the text field and div must exist before the code is executed.
By including the above in an HTML page (as in Listing 2), you set the stage for autocompletion to work. Whenever the user loads the page and types a letter into the text field, Scriptaculous waits for 0.4 seconds of inactivity. If the user isn't typing, and if the text field already contains one or more characters, Autocompleter.Local tries to find a match from the current list. If it finds one, it fills in the rest of the text field.
Listing 2. complete.html
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">  <title>Special effects</title>
Enter your favorite distribution

<input type="text" id="distro" name="distro_text_field" autocomplete="off" />

If it finds more than one (as would happen to a user typing K in our example, which matches both Kubuntu and Knoppix), the system displays a menu of options, from which the user may choose by typing or clicking.
Protoype is a library aimed at the JavaScript that endeavors to solve many programmers' needs. However, Prototype's functionality extends only so far as the programmer; it doesn't offer any direct GUI improvements. Given that JavaScript is largely used to handle the GUI in a Web application, it shouldn't come as a surprise that there are several libraries built on top of Prototype to handle such tasks. Scriptaculous appears to be one of the best known of these, and in my experience, there's good reason for that.
There are several functions of Scriptaculous that we didn't get to explore this month, including drag and drop and JavaScript unit testing. This last item is probably of note even for JavaScript programmers who have no intention of creating GUI effects.

Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

If you already use virtualized infrastructure, you are well on your way to leveraging the power of the cloud. Virtualization offers the promise of limitless resources, but how do you manage that scalability when your DevOps team doesn't scale? In today's hypercompetitive markets, fast results can make a difference between leading the pack vs. obsolescence. Organizations need more benefits from cloud computing than just raw resources. They need agility, flexibility, convenience, ROI, and control.

This paper discusses the nonlinear coherent coupler (NLCC), a device useful for optical processing, but not bistable. This device utilizes the coherent interaction of two optical waveguides placed in close proximity. Because of the evanescent field overlap, these waveguides periodically exchange power. Nonlinear interactions modify the exchange of power and lead to strongly nonlinear transmission characteristics.

Thread: Delayed Preloading Image Script

Delayed Preloading Image Script
Has anyone got one?
I have been looking around the internet and it doesn't seem to be possible, or that many do not use this.
I have a website that loads in jCarouselLite, but it displays text. Then on "Mouseover" an image is displayed.
If I preload images nearly all browsers will try to do this en masse, making the whole page lengthy to view. Of course I have taken the preload script out, and it's real quick (until I mouse over an image). This becomes more of a problem as the webpage serves an international crowd, adding a few more seconds on to each image.
I really need the page to load ... then for images to be "Pre" loaded.
If anyone has any scripts/idea it would be nice!
Oh I have tried various solutions, mainly CSS methods.. but I can't find the right solution yet.
I think I need JavaScript, which has a delay function and a preload image function... but I am not sure how that looks...
Thanking you in advance

The point of preloading is so the images are there when you need them. You can use a normal image preloading javascript script placed in the doc head, but you should add a delay to the display area script until the page and all images are loaded.

Ethan Frome and Other Short Fiction
THE VILLAGE lay under two feet of snow, with drifts at the windy corners. In a sky of iron the points of the Dipper hung like icicles and Orion flashed his cold fires. The moon had set, but the night was so transparent that the white house-fronts between the elms looked grey against the snow, clumps of bushes made black stains on it, and the basement windows of the church sent shafts of yellow light far across the endless undulations.
Young Ethan Frome walked at a quick pace along the deserted street, past the bank and Michael Eady's new brick store and Lawyer Varnum's house with the two black Norway spruces at the gate. Opposite the Varnum gate, where the road fell away toward the Corbury valley, the church reared its slim white steeple and narrow peristyle. As the young man walked toward it the upper windows drew a black arcade along the side wall of the building, but from the lower openings, on the side where the ground sloped steeply down to the Corbury road, the light shot its long bars, illuminating many fresh furrows in the track leading to the basement door, and showing, under an adjoining shed, a line of sleighs with heavily blanketed horses.
The night was perfectly still, and the air so dry and pure that it gave little sensation of cold. The effect produced on Frome was rather of a complete absence of atmosphere, as though nothing less tenuous than ether intervened between the white earth under his feet and the metallic dome overhead. "It's like being in an exhausted receiver," he thought. Four or five years earlier he had taken a year's course at a technological college at Worcester, and dabbled in the laboratory with a friendly professor of physics; and the ima...

Bilingual Education: From Compensatory to Quality Schooling, Second Edition maintains its original purpose of synthesizing the research on successful bilingual education in order to demonstrate that quality bilingual education is possible and desirable.Findings from a wide range of studies are integrated to provide a clear picture of bilingual education in today's schools, and a professional understanding of the foundations and issues surrounding bilingual education programs. The recommendations offered provide a comprehensive basis for planning, developing, improving, and evaluating bilingual programs. For clarity, these recommendations are discussed with respect to the whole school, the curriculum, and the classroom, but it is stressed that they need to be applied in a holistic way because they depend on each other. All educators who work or will work with bilingual students--classroom teachers, administrators, and curricula developers--will find the information in this text essential and will appreciate the straightforward approach and easy reading style.
New in the Second Edition:
*A new Chapter 1, Pursuing Successful Schooling, includes the definition of success that frames the content of the book, and a review of how the research on bilingual education has changed.
*Chapter 2, Bilingual Education Debate, is substantially revised to address major changes in demographics and legislation.
*Chapter 3, Contextual and Individual Factors: Supports and Challenges, is updated to include important new research on the external and internal factors affecting learners and a new section on peers.
*Chapter 4, Creating a Good School, is reorganized and updated.
*Chapter 5, Creating Quality Curriculum, is updated throughout, particularly the sections on teaching content areas and assessment.
*Chapter 6, Creating Quality Instruction, includes extensive new material in the sections on "Teaching English and In English" and "Teaching Students with Limited Schooling."
*Chapter 7, Beyond the Debate, has an extensive new section describing and analyzing how the framework for quality education can be used as a guide to help create a new program. less

Toyota 4Runner
1999 Toyota 4runner with the 3.4L V6 125,000 miles. My problem.After driving 60miles during which the truck seem to be stumbling at hi-ways speeds. I shut off my truck and went into resturant for diner. On returning my truck had no power to even turn over the engine/battery completely dead. After getting a boost the truck started fine, I drove the car for 3 more hours without shutting it off assuming that the drive time would give it enough time to charge the battery. No such luck on trying to start the truck again the batter had no power to even turn it over. I got another boost/jump start which took 4 tries to start. Drove home cleaned the battery terminals and cable connections and now the truck starts fine, but continues to stumble or studder at hi-way speeds The truck has no trouble idling at lights or driving around town but seems to be studdering on the hi-way. When the studdering occurs the engine rpm doesn't seem to be changing on the tach. If you can help me solve this problem I will be more than happy to make a donation to your website.

I have found that the injectors have a small micro screen on the input side. I have seen them clogged if the residue gets past the filter.
The most common residue is sulpher that will by pass the filter. Change the filter and look for yellow residue. If so you have clogged injector screens.
If so let me know and I'll tell you how to fix it.

If you regularly check your car's tyre pressure it can make the difference between living and dying in a road traffic accident; wrongly inflated tyres can significantly change your braking distances and cornering. It can of course also avoid the accident all together.
Tyres should be checked on a regular basis and the correct tyre pressure should be set when the tyres are cold; ideally you should have your own tyre pressure gauge at home. The tyres should be checked not only to ensure that they have the correct pressure but also that the tyre wear is even.
It is also important not to mistake a safe level of tread with the legal limit. If you allow your tyres to go down to the legal limit before changing them you are also at greater risk of having an accident; braking distances are greatly increased as tyre tread is approaching the legal limit.
If you are in an accident that has been caused by you and your insurer finds that the tyres were incorrectly inflated, they may refuse to pay out the claim. Your vehicle must be in a roadworthy condition to comply with the terms and conditions of your insurance.
If you keep your tyres correctly inflated, apart from saving your life and perhaps that of your children, you can greatly improve fuel economy, under inflated tyres cause a tremendous amount of drag, which burns more fuel.

I almost missed an anniversary of major importance, and you did too I'll bet.
Cul de Sac debuted on February 8, 2004. Consider that ten years ago: it was only forty years since the Beatles invaded the US; to mankind's great loss, Facebook was launched; my daughter Charlotte spent the time stretching string around the furniture to make jumps then ran around like a horsie and jumping them.
It kinda makes you stop and think, huh?

Music, a dilettante's love story
Music is weird. I mean that literally; I think its effect on the brain is potent stuff, not easily measured. The neurologist Oliver Sachs wrote a book on it called Musicophilia. Nowadays I can't listen to it with the intensity I used to; it's like drawing in that respect.
When he was about 11 my brother got a piano. He wanted to take lessons and he did for 6 years or so. And having a piano handy I started fooling with it. I had a friend who could play the German National anthem (Deutschland uber alles, from a string quartet by Haydn, then set to Gott erhalte Franz denn Kaiser) ( sorry). We had a children's encyclopedia set my mom bought in like 1960 and it had a chart with piano keys, notes of the scale and their names with dotted lines to each. So I figured out a C major chord. Pianos are just sitting there all tuned with every note visible and they're easy enough to figure once the basic logic of notation's clear, and there're books for that. I didn't want lessons, I wanted a satisfying project, and I had the time to waste on it.
I was at Montgomery College then and the library had music books, opera vocal scores for piano in particular, and I got Wagner's Meistersinger and figured out the first page. It's great, real pompous and soaring, just what an 18 year old geek wants. It was an education in not just culture but history, but I just wanted to know how it worked. And keeping the radio on all the time just made it worse. It was sensory overload almost. I think I've mentioned that I've always found the point when you realize hey, I like this! you know, the aha! moment really interesting. I rememober getting interested in monster movies was precipitated by buying a poster of Bela Lugosi spreading his cape, and my wife got into Chinese culture big time after seeing a Jackie Chan movie.
It hit me how much I liked music after seeing a film in German class that featured Beethoven's fifth. And I wondered how it worked. For instance, how did I know a symphonic movement was coming to an end? There were these gears shifting way down in the orchestra so you'd feel this change in velocity. That was the Coda, the tail of the piece. Brahms often overworked his, stuffing like 5 key changes into a few bars.
Anyway I got to the point where I could play the middle movement of Beethoven's Pathetique sonata, about ten rags by Scott Joplin and lots of chunks of things. On a good day I could manage the end of Wagner's Die Walkure (the magic fire music, it'll tear your head off) and several pieces by Ravel and Brahms. But I didn't have the patience to learn basics, scales and such. And then I got married and there wasn't a piano (my brother had quit his lessons after several years from the, ahem, spinster who covered her living room furniture with plastic to protect it from children. He offered his piano but that seemed wrong).
But in about 2005 I finally bought a piano, a Charles Walter studio model, my dream piano, and started again. I decided lessons were necessary, which was brave I guess because I'm scared to death to perform publicly and I knew it would entail a recital. I took my first lesson the day before I first met Lee Salem, strangely enough, from Grace Chang, a delightful,, funny but no nonsense teacher recommended by friends. She had me sight-read a Brahms intermezzo, one of his (somewhat) easier ones except for a bit that has 2 against 3 crossrythms (dense). She was impressed and said my trills were good.. I knew I'd get along with her when we both liked a bit from Brahms' first piano trio; in the first movement; on the first page, the piano, playing in B flat, dips down unexpectedly to a chord with a bass in low E major, the polar opposite. When played right it's quietly seismic. Within two years I played in 2 recitals, once four hands with my daughter Charlotte who also took lessons and once with Grace.
Then I started on the strip and didn't have time. I also realized most music was really beyond me (I still harbored delusions of playing the Meistersinger prelude). I was always a sucker for transcriptions; orchestral pieces arranged for piano and, thanks mostly to the internet, I had hundreds of pieces I loved, all for piano, at my fingertips, if they could handle it. My piano tuner, a funny man, said most self-taught pianists have eyes bigger than their stomachs and I knew what he meant.
Then it got harder. I couldn't wrap my head or my fingers around it like before. When we moved I donated the piano to Arena Stage, where my brother works . It was time to let that obsession go.

Track record of success includes helping leading companies define and own high-growth categories such as CRM (Siebel), business intelligence (QlikTech), database (0racle), compliance (SAP/Virsa) and online trading (Charles Schwab)
Redwood City, Calif. – Wildfire, the leading provider of social media marketing software with over 13,000 paying customers, today announced that veteran enterprise software executive Doug Laird has joined the company as its chief marketing officer. Laird will be responsible for leading all global marketing efforts for Wildfire, defining the global market strategy and vision, branding, product positioning and segmentation, and demand creation.
Laird has been instrumental in helping many of the world's most successful B2B and B2C technology companies define their categories, drive growth, and become market leaders. His track record of success spans fast-growing industries such as CRM, business intelligence, online trading, and compliance. Laird's background includes a deep understanding of customer relationship management, analytics, and community, three key elements of social media marketing as brands look to better use customer information to business advantage.
Laird joins Wildfire from business intelligence software company QlikTech, where as vice president of global marketing he helped the company grow its annual revenue run-rate from $80 million to $321 million in three years, leading Gartner to call QlikTech a "marketing juggernaut." Laird also oversaw marketing strategy and demand creation during the company's IPO in July 2010, which was one of the top three best performing technology IPOs of the past two years.
Prior to joining QlikTech, Laird held executive-level marketing roles at SAP/Virsa, Siebel Systems and Oracle. At Oracle, Laird reported to future Salesforce.com founder Marc Benioff, and helped increase Oracle's database market share from 15 percent to 35 percent.
"Doug's background makes him an ideal fit for Wildfire – with expertise in CRM, analytics, and community building, Doug has a very deep understanding of three key building blocks that will help us take social marketing to the next level," said Victoria Ransom, founder and CEO of Wildfire. "Doug is also an expert in helping enterprise software companies define categories and establish market leadership, and he will be instrumental as we accelerate our growth and continue our push into the enterprise. We are thrilled to have Doug join the team."
"As a long-time technology marketer, I believe that social engagement is the marketing model of the future, and Wildfire is in the best position to capitalize on this trend and serve the market with its volume and velocity model, focused on small and medium-sized businesses with rapid movement into the enterprise. I've seen this approach succeed time and again with the world's top software companies, such as Salesforce.com, and it's clear to me that Wildfire has the same scalable model that will allow us to take advantage of this tremendous opportunity," said Laird. "Wildfire is a thought leader that is ushering in the new era of engagement marketing, and I'm excited to join the team at this pivotal point in the company's history."

TEAMS: Detroit Tigers, Kansas City Royals, Chicago White Sox, Tampa Bay Rays, Minnesota Twins
Detroit Tigers, 84-72, 1st place, 2 up, magic number 5.
Well, that's fun, after all this–that magic number thing.
After a disappointing "outing" by Rick Porcello on Wednesday (in which he got Not Enough Outs), Doug Fister came through in a big way, with Way Too Many Strikeouts, to the tune of an American League record 9 strikeouts in a row. Or, to look at it another way, going through the whole order in strikeout mode.
In fact, it was even better than that. In the 9 strikeouts recorded, Fister threw a sum total of 9 balls, or 1 per batter, if you will.
As much as the Tigers didn't look like a playoff team yesterday (it's not often you get spotted 5 errors, thank you very much Mr. Moustakas…and the failed Santiago pinch-bunt had a second-tier aroma about it), Fister looked like a playoff pitcher, and the ESPN folk agree.
Just for fun, here is a breakdown of his record-setting 9 consecutive strikeouts:
- Salvador Perez looking on 1-2, 91-mph fastball.
- Mike Moustakas swinging on 3-2 changeup.
- Jeff Francoeur swinging on 1-2 slider.
- Brayan Pena looking on 1-2, 89-mph fastball.
- Johnny Giavotella looking on 0-2, 89-mph fastball.
- David Lough looking on 2-2, 88-mph fastball.
- Alcides Escobar swinging on 0-2, 89-mph fastball.
- Alex Gordon looking on 0-2, 89-mph fastball up in the zone.
- Billy Butler swinging on 1-2, 91-mph fastball.
The Tiger offense was sparked, surprisingly enough, by Quintin Berry, and by a hustling infield double by Prince Fielder. And let us all pause to soak that one in, because that will only happen so many times in your lifetime. Miguel Cabrera, on the other hand, was ominously silent. The Triple Crown hoopla may be getting to him.
Meanwhile, the Rays took care of the plummeting White Sox, thanks in part to ol' crooked hat, Fernando Rodney, who still wears his hat askew, but has straightened out his command.
The Tigers are on the road tonight in a bit of a do-over series with the Minnesota Twins: The Tigers get another shot at Scott Diamond tonight and the Pajama Man tomorrow, after struggling against them last week.
A pumped Drew Smyly starts for the Tigers, and could turn out to be a key piece in a Tiger playoff run, with Max Scherzer still sorting out shoulder problems.
Stat of the Day: Gene Lamont leads the AL in sending plodding sluggers home from 3rd ill-advisedly by a margin of 64% over the next worse 3rd base coach.
Today's Player of the Pre-game: Omar Infante. It was good to see Omar excel in the field yesterday. It's a thing called RANGE.
Today's Avilaird Lineup:
- Austin Jackson CF
- Omar Infante 2B
- Miguel Cabrera 3B
- Prince Fielder 1B
- Delmon Young DH
- Groundout to Short SS
- Andy Dirks LF
- Avisail Garcia RF
- Gerald Laird C

So, it was a slow week for the Listener and I did not find anything that grabbed my attention. However, for some unknown fortuitous reason, several music videos, all coming from some of my favorite albums this year and last were released . Readers of this blog, and our ongoing column "Picking Up the Slack for MTV," should already be well aware that the music video did not die with MTV switching to an all "original programming" format, but that there are still quite a few enjoyable videos being released. So, in the spirit of mixing things up, here is a special music video edition of "Listener's Digest."
The Sea and Cake - "Harps:" Off this year's excellent Runner, the Sea and Cake's "Harp" is a great distillation of the veteran band's overall style. The video captures the song's twinge of nostalgia by going with a 70's motif as two girls wander a seemingly abandoned and idyllic town collecting field recordings.
Wild Nothing - "Paradise:" There is a surprising local connection for this video, which at one point features Michelle Williams wandering Niagara Falls and going on the Maid of the Mist. Another video that visually captures the tone of Wild Nothing's music and which also suggests a slight retro dimension with the brief appearance of a walkmen, "Paradise" follows a lone Michelle Williams around from airport to airport. Midway through, Williams reads a brief passage from Iris Murdoch's novel, A Word Child.
LA Vampires and Maria Minerva - "Seasons Change:" Off the forthcoming collaboration LP between the two artists, "Seasons Change" is an airy and haunting track that suddenly crystallizes into a dance song half way in with the introduction of a tinny synth driven groove. I am kind of cheating here since I really wanted to put this song in the column a last week but failed to see it in time. It is really an intriguing song and the video - which looks to have been shot on a $10 budget, follows the two electronic artists around a sun drenched Los Angeles.
M83 - "Steve McQueen:" Apparently, M83 is really into psychic children as the two videos before this ( "Reunion" and "Midnight City") all featured psychic children. In this video, a yellow suited kid creates a large scale lawn display using his wits and apparent ability to bring electronic circuitry along with all sorts of inanimate objects to life. You have to wonder where the neighbors are, or the parents, or anyone really. Pretty much all of today's videos feature, in some way, solitary individual(s) wandering empty landscapes. Where did everyone go?
No really, where is everyone? Guys? Guys?

SummaryRecent epidemiological studies show a reduced prevalence of Alzheimer's disease (AD) in patients treated with inhibitors of cholesterol biosynthesis [[1, 2]]. Moreover, the cholesterol-transport protein, apolipoprotein E4, and elevated cholesterol are important risk factors for AD [[3–5]]. Additionally, in vitro and in vivo studies show that intracellular cholesterol levels can modulate the processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP) to β-amyloid [[6–11]], the major constituent of senile plaques [[12–14]]. Cholesterol plays a crucial role in maintaining lipid rafts in a functional state [[15]]. Lipid rafts are cholesterol-enriched membrane microdomains implicated in signal transduction, protein trafficking, and proteolytic processing [[15–18]]. Since APP, β-amyloid, and the putative γ-secretase, presenilin-1 (PS-1), have all been found in lipid rafts [[12, 19–21]], we hypothesized that the recently identified β-secretase, Asp2 (BACE1) [[13]], might also be present in rafts. Here, we report that recombinant Asp2 expressed in three distinct cell lines is raft associated. Using both detergent and nondetergent methods, Asp2 protein and activity were found in a light membrane raft fraction that also contained other components of the amyloidogenic pathway. Immunoisolation of caveolin-containing vesicles indicated that Asp2 was present in a unique raft population distinct from caveolae. Finally, depletion of raft cholesterol abrogated association of Asp2 with the light membrane fraction. These observations are consistent with the raft localization of APP processing and suggest that the partitioning of Asp2 into lipid rafts may underlie the cholesterol sensitivity of β-amyloid production.

β-Secretase: its biology as a therapeutic target in diseases

Haibo Wang, Rena Li and Yong Shen
Abstractβ-Secretase (BACE1, β-site APP cleaving enzyme 1) is an aspartic proteinase that has multiple functions in various physiological processes, such as cell differentiation, immunoregulation, and cell death. There is increasing evidence that changes in BACE1 activity are involved in many diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), schizophrenia, epileptic behavior, and others. However, a deeper understanding of the molecular biology of BACE1 is necessary for further exploration of cell development, immunological regulation, and disease pathogenesis. Here, we review the molecular and cellular biology of BACE1, including its enzymatic properties, structure, biosynthesis, and physiological functions to provide a new perspective and rational assessment of drugability. Lastly, we discuss proposed strategies to control BACE1 activity for possible therapeutic application.

In search of an enzyme: the β-secretase of Alzheimer's disease is an aspartic proteinase
David R. Howlett, David L. Simmons, Colin Dingwall and Gary Christie
The deposition of beta-amyloid (Aβ) in the brain is a neuropathological feature of Alzheimer's disease. Aβ is cleaved from its precursor protein (APP) by processing at its N and C termini by enzymes known as β- and γ-secretases,respectively. The identity of these enzymes has been elusive but the search for the N-terminal secretase might have ended recently with the almost simultaneous publication by five major laboratories claiming a transmembrane aspartic proteinase to be the long sought after β-secretase. Even at this early stage of its characterization, this aspartic proteinase fulfils many of the key criteria necessary for β-secretase.The race is now on to develop inhibitors that could prove effective in halting the progression of Alzheimer's disease.

Bentley Tied for 4th in NE-10 Football Preseason Coaches' Poll
WALTHAM, Mass. – Coming off a 6-4 season, the Bentley University Falcons are tied for fourth in the Northeast-10 Conference football preseason coaches' poll, which was announced Monday morning.
Defending champion and 2011 NCAA Division II national quarterfinalist New Haven topped the rankings by a comfortable margin, with the Chargers receiving 63 points and seven first-place votes. Coaches were not allowed to vote for their own team in the poll.
The other two first-place votes went to Southern Connecticut and American International, who finished second and third, respectively. Southern garnered 53 points, AIC followed with 50, and both Bentley and Merrimack came in with 41.
Rounding out the poll were Assumption (29), Stonehill (24), Saint Anselm (15) and Pace (8).
The preseason rankings essentially mirror last year's final standings, which saw Bentley, AIC and Merrimack finish in a tie for third with 5-3 conference records.
Fourth-year head coach Thom Boerman has 15 starters back from last year's club, a group that includes running back Bobby Tarr (Byfield/Bishop Fenwick HS), wide-out Bill Kiley (Quincy/Boston College HS), All-Conference tackle Nick Halloran (Somerville/BB&N) and the team's top two tacklers, junior linebackers Blaine Hopwood (New Bedford/New Bedford HS) and Kyle Young (Ellicott City, Md./Centennial HS).
One of the biggest issues during training camp is determining a successor for three-year starter Bryant Johnson at quarterback, with the primary candidates being junior Danny Guadagnoli (Framingham/Framingham HS) and senior Luke Zahradka (Franklin Square, N.Y./H.F. Carey HS).
Bentley opens its season at home, under the Friday night lights, against Pace Aug. 31 and plays its only non-conference game of the season eight days later at West Virginia Wesleyan, the number three preseason pick in the West Virginia Intercollegiate Athletic Conference.
The schedule also includes the first-ever Northeast-10 championship weekend Nov. 10 with the top two teams squaring off for the conference title. The next six teams also be in action, with the teams finishing third, fourth and fifth hosting games.

Family Karaoke
Dallas, TX 75229
- Sun, Tue-Sat 6pm-4am
- Private Party
- Late Night
Dallas Observer's Description
Some people don't like karaoke, or would prefer to sit there and just watch the fun. That's cool. But just trust that at Family Karaoke--where parties of up to 25 can reserve private sound-proofed rooms with wait-service who bring pitchers of beer, carafes of neon goodness and ample Jell-O shots, as well as tasty pub grub and Korean nosh--the power of the mic will compel you to at least pick up a tambourine (supplied), if not join in a sing-along. Plus, the monitors play magical scenes of Korean music videos and soap opera equivalents that will knock you free of all reality even if the the soju hasn't already.

Environmental Characteristics of Smart Growth Neighborhoods
An Exploratory Case Study
Chapter 6
One of the objectives of this exploratory case study was determining criteria for improving potential future studies. Based on the Sacramento experience, these recommendations include:
Level of Effort
- This exploratory study had a budget that equated to approximately 1.25 person-months (about 215 hours) of paid consultant labor, which restricted the ability to examine several important issues in detail. (Actual labor effort was somewhat higher due to volunteered time and the contributions of NRDC staff.) A more appropriate level of effort is probably three to four person-months of consultant labor, especially if impacts such as travel demands, stormwater runoff, or embodied energy are to be quantified with precision.
- As part of any larger budgets, future studies should include sufficient resources for conducting household travel diary surveys at project sites. The travel demands of "smart" neighborhood design are among its most hotly contested impacts, and detailed household travel diaries constitute the best available method for definitively characterizing project performance.
Community Selection
- Multiple communities should be selected to represent a variety of environmental settings, ranging from highly urbanized to suburban.
- An absolute prerequisite should be a well-established local GIS with a database in place describing land-use, housing, employment, transportation, and infrastructure conditions.
- It is strongly desirable to have a regional household travel survey no older than five years. Recent regional statistics are useful as "context" for the household diaries described above.
- The local water system should have customer meters in order to easily quantify consumption.
Project Selection
- A variety of "smart" and conventional designs should be analyzed, including residential, commercial, and mixed-use projects of varying sizes.
- Projects to be compared should be as socioeconomically matched as possible, e.g. households of similar sizes and incomes.
- Projects should be fully occupied by households and/or employees for at least one year in order to accurately gauge their environmental performance.
- It is especially important that project occupants are available for, and agreeable with, participation in a travel diary survey.
- Consideration should be given to studying projects that have already been investigated for other reasons in order to build on an established information base. An example is the 1999 Urban Land Institute study "Valuing the New Urbanism" that looked at six projects in detail and, in the process, created the beginning of a valuable database from which environmental studies could be leveraged.

Arepas are common in the cuisines of Venezuela and Colombia.
Outside view
Front counter
Upper half of the menu. As it says, all arepas are served with coleslaw.
Garlic mayo, Scotch Bonnet hot sauce, and salsa verde, respectively. All three sauces are great with the arepas! If you can't take heat, don't use the scotch bonnet hot sauce. I really love spicy food, and yet, when I placed a drop of the hot sauce on my arepa, my face almost melted off my head.
Reina Pepiada Arepa. This has roasted chicken, cilantro, avocado, and red onions in it. Though the individual ingredients themselves are quite boring on their own, the manner in which they were combined and proportioned was brilliant. The chicken was the main ingredient of the arepa, but it was greatly enhanced by the sweet creaminess of the avocado, the zesty flavour of the onions, and the fragrance of the cilantro. The flavours were very well balanced; the arepa was delicious!
Carne Mechada Arepa. It has shredded flank steak, garlic, tomato, pepper, and cumin. Though the flavour was also very well balanced, the beef's texture was too tough. In steak-standards, the meat was very tender, however, it didn't belong in an arepa, since the dough fell apart every time I bit into it, while I made a huge mess trying to bite into the beef. Having said that, the amazing flavours compensated for the arepa's crumbliness.
Adobo roasted pork arepa. This is not to be confused with the Filipino adobo, which is generally more salty and sour. South American adobos are milder, just like this one, seasoned with caramelized onions and annatto. The flavour wasn't bad, but I feel that a little bit more salt would have perfected it.
