A methadone clinic is soon to open at 732 S. Ludlow St. — at the corner of Ziegler and Ludlow, just south of US 35 — becoming the third such clinic in the city.
According to the state Department of Alcohol and Drug Addiction Services, the Crossroads Center in Cincinnati has completed all of the necessary paperwork and is licensed to open the out-patient facility to treat heroin and other opiate addicts, called Crosspoints.
Dr. Roberto Soria, Crossroads medical director, said the facility will open as soon as all the paperwork has been approved. Soria said he will make a private presentation to city and community leaders Thursday.
Steve Sieboldt, president of the Downtown Priority Board, is one of those invited to the meeting.
"The only concerns I've heard are about the location," Sieboldt said. "This appears to be a legitimate operation." The neighborhood is a center for social service and medical agencies.
According to Stacey Frohnapfel-Hasson of the state drug addiction services, Crosspoint was licensed on the basis of Crossroads lengthy history of methadone treatment. All licenses are for one year, and the clinic must apply for renewal every 12 months. All licensed methadone treatment centers must be non-profit, she said.
The CURE Project at 1800 N. James H. McGee Blvd. is the only other state-licensed methadone clinic in the area. The Veterans Administration operates a federally regulated methadone program on its VA Hospital campus on West Third Street.
Virgil McDaniels, CURE deputy director, said there is always room for more opiate treatment. CURE saw its caseload spike to a record high two years ago. It dropped last year and is inching upward this year. McDaniels declined to release figures.
"A lot of folks are not getting treatment," McDaniels said. "In most cases, they have to be forced into treatment by a loved one. The question is whether they will stay in treatment."
According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's National Survey on Drug Use and Health in 2008, 20 percent of the 1.8 million admissions to reporting treatment facilities, or 360,000, were for heroin and other opiate addictions. That was the largest identified group.
Crosspoint also is licensed for Suboxone treatment, another drug used to help opiate addicts to kick their habit, be it heroin or other opiates.
Both Suboxone and methadone can be abused and overdoses have been reported. Both drugs, however, have been shown effective in treating opiate addiction.

Last summer a friend calls and asks if I'm missing any of my ferrets. "No, why?" This friend who lives across the busy main street and off on another street says, "I have a ferret on my back porch!" On that street, this friend is the ONLY family we even know on that street and this lil ferret finds her way to their back porch! It's middle of August, hot summer heat, stray dogs, cats and whatever else to dodge...avoiding cars and trying to stay alive. Renezmae was filthy, nothing but skin and bones, every rib could be felt. Broken canines, horrid teeth, and all of her claws curled under from being so long. As scared and trembling as she was, not once did she lash out and only looked at me as to say, "please help, I'm tired." Took her home, cleaned her up, syringe fed warm soup and supplements for weeks...within no time she rounded out nicely, but still timid. Toys, sadly she had no clue what to do with toys. Renezmae had to be "taught" to have fun and enjoy life as a ferret should. Soon, she found favorite comfy spots, was lapping up ferretone, eating on her own, and yes...has her favorite toys she comes running at the sound of! Ignorance or monstrous act to put her in the shape she was in, to be exposed to outdoor elements to fend for herself, and to land on the porch of only family on that street we know.... Renezmae was guided to the right house to get her here, to her loving forever home. Now, she fits in fine, pounces and plays as a ferret should, cuddles and gives kisses and shows no memories of the past life she was subjected to.
Renezmae Guided to her forever home

fix your tagsPros: I dont even know if it workds or not. Cons: I got it and 2 parts were missing from it I would not mind if it was the card and the usb part but the microsd is not even there. This is also put down as a sd card and is a hcsd card. Other Thoughts: I would really like newegg to fix the tags on these cause its not just this item that has the wrong tag. I would like to get my money back but for the price I paid not even gonna bother. Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |
Worth the USB to Micro alonePros: I bought this 4 years ago from a different retailer when i saw the MicroSD to USB adapter just for that. Still works perfectly and I don't need to dedicate a drive bay to pointless flash media drives ill never use. Personally i find it invaluable as i can carry many mSD cards rather and just the adapter rather than use much more space with many USB drives. The USB adapter also holds the mSD card very snug but not so tight as to be hard to insert the card, no worries about it falling out ever. Cons: 4 gigs? Really? Other Thoughts: Dont buy it for the mSD card, its hardly worth it anymore considering its size but the adapter is almost perfect. Did you find this review helpful? |

great deal, needs formated?Pros: id had the ability to what i wanted. the USB adapter and the micro and standard SD adapters where nice too. Cons: it would not function with my computer. from what i could find out the 4gb card was either too big for my sdsc(?) card reader or it was not formated. Other Thoughts: this is an amazing product it just does not do what i wanted. i could probably figure it out and get it working just fine. bu i already have some ram i bought i am returning and i have little work this week so i need the money.

Energy storage
Kansas City-based electric company KCP&L is host to a new smart grid storage technology from Exergonix. The nano-battery cell, a one-megawatt battery, is in its first live test and is being evaluated by MRIGlobal at KCP&L's SmartGrid Innovation Park. The battery stores solar energy that is generated at the utility's SmartGrid Demonstration Area and is being used to provide energy during peak demand periods. The Exergonix system involves a lithium ion storage system said to incorporate a higher energy density battery and advanced electronic controls. While the technology obviously isn't ready for market, we thought it was interesting enough to share. .

Box H/ACA Small Ribonucleoproteins
Molecular Cell, Volume 37, Issue 5, 12 March 2010, Pages 597-606

SummaryBox H/ACA RNAs represent an abundant, evolutionarily conserved class of small noncoding RNAs. All H/ACA RNAs associate with a common set of proteins, and they function as ribonucleoprotein (RNP) enzymes mainly in the site-specific pseudouridylation of ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) and small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs). Some H/ACA RNPs function in the nucleolytic processing of precursor rRNA (pre-rRNA) and synthesis of telomeric DNA. Thus, H/ACA RNPs are essential for three fundamental cellular processes: protein synthesis, mRNA splicing, and maintenance of genome integrity. Recently, great progress has been made toward understanding of the biogenesis, intracellular trafficking, structure, and function of H/ACA RNPs.

SummaryThe RNA component of human telomerase (hTR) includes H/ACA and CR7 domains required for 3′ end processing, localization, and accumulation. The terminal loop of the CR7 domain contains the CAB box (ugAG) required for targeting of scaRNAs to Cajal bodies (CB) and an uncharacterized sequence required for accumulation and processing. To dissect out the contributions of the CR7 stem loop to hTR processing and localization, we solved the solution structures of the 3′ terminal stem loops of hTR CR7 and U64 H/ACA snoRNA, and the 5′ terminal stem loop of U85 C/D-H/ACA scaRNA. These structures, together with analysis of localization, processing, and accumulation of hTRs containing nucleotide substitutions in the CR7 domain, identified the sequence and structural requirements of the hTR processing and CB localization signals and showed that these signals are functionally independent. Further, 3′ end processing was found to be a prerequisite for translocation of hTR to CBs.

Human Telomerase RNA Accumulation in Cajal Bodies Facilitates Telomerase Recruitment to Telomeres and Telomere Elongation

Gaël Cristofari, Emem Adolf, Patrick Reichenbach, Katarzyna Sikora, Rebecca M. Terns, Michael P. Terns and Joachim Lingner
SummaryTelomerase is required for telomere maintenance and is responsible for the immortal phenotype of cancer cells. How telomerase is assembled and reaches telomeres in the context of nuclear architecture is not understood. Recently, the telomerase RNA subunit (hTR) was shown to accumulate in Cajal bodies (CBs), subnuclear structures implicated in ribonucleoprotein maturation. However, the functional relevance of this localization for telomerase was unknown. hTR localization to CBs requires a short sequence motif called the CAB box. Here, we reconstitute telomerase in human cells and determine the effects of CAB box mutations on telomere biology. We demonstrate that mutant hTR, which fails to accumulate in CBs, is fully capable of forming catalytically active telomerase in vivo but is strongly impaired in telomere extension. The functional deficiency is accompanied by a decreased association of telomerase with telomeres. Collectively, these data identify subnuclear localization as an important regulatory mechanism for telomere length homeostasis in human cells.

Kazimierz T. Tycowski1, Mei-Di Shu1, Abiodun Kukoyi1 and Joan A. Steitz1, ,
Corresponding authorSummary
- Small Cajal body (CB)-specific RNPs (scaRNPs) function in posttranscriptional modification of small nuclear (sn)RNAs. An RNA element, the CAB box, facilitates CB localization of H/ACA scaRNPs. Using a related element in Drosophila C/D scaRNAs, we purified a fly WD40 repeat protein that UV crosslinks to RNA in a C/D CAB box-dependent manner and associates with C/D and mixed domain C/D-H/ACA scaRNAs. Its human homolog, WDR79, associates with C/D, H/ACA, and mixed domain scaRNAs, as well as with telomerase RNA. WDR79's binding to human H/ACA and mixed domain scaRNAs is CAB box dependent, and its association with mixed domain RNAs also requires the ACA motif, arguing for additional interactions of WDR79 with H/ACA core proteins. We demonstrate a requirement for WDR79 binding in the CB localization of a scaRNA. This and other recent reports establish WDR79 as a central player in the localization and processing of nuclear RNPs.

A picture may be worth a thousand calories, a new study suggests. Looking at images of high-calorie foods stimulates the brain's appetite control center and results in an increased desire for food, according to the study, which will be presented Monday at The Endocrine Society's 94th Annual Meeting in Houston.
"This stimulation of the brain's reward areas may contribute to overeating and obesity," said the study's senior author, Kathleen Page, MD, assistant professor at the University of Southern California, Los Angeles.
"We thought this was a striking finding, because the current environment is inundated with advertisements showing images of high-calorie foods," she added.
Using functional magnetic resonance imaging, or fMRI, the researchers studied the brain responses of 13 obese, Hispanic young women. Each participant had two fMRI scans as she viewed blocks of images of high-calorie foods, such as ice cream and cupcakes, as well as low-calorie foods, such as fruits and vegetables, and non-food items. After each block of similar images, participants rated, on a scale of 1 to 10, their hunger and their desire for either sweet or savory foods.
Halfway through the scans, participants drank 50 grams of glucose—the amount of sugar in a can of soda—on one occasion and an equivalent amount of fructose on another occasion. These two simple sugars make up both table sugar and high-fructose corn syrup.
Because fMRI measures blood flow to the brain, regions with increased blood flow indicated greater activity, Page explained. The researchers identified which brain regions activated in response to viewing the images and how sugar consumption influenced brain activation and ratings of hunger and appetite.
Reported results showed that simply viewing high-calorie food images activated brain regions that control appetite and reward, unlike pictures of non-foods. Viewing pictures of high-calorie foods also significantly increased ratings of hunger and desire for sweet and savory foods, Page said.
Ratings of hunger and desire for savory foods also were higher after ingestion of either sugar drink. Compared with glucose ingestion, fructose tended to produce greater activation of brain regions involved in reward and motivation for food. "These findings," Page said, "suggest that added sweeteners could be one of the main contributors to the obesity epidemic."
She said they studied obese, Hispanic young women because this group is at "high risk for continued weight gain and obesity."

Hi, (not you?) | Member Center | Sign Out
Posted: 1:37 p.m. Friday, Dec. 28, 2012
Wheels Editor
The 80s seem like a long time ago. It was the decade of my youth, so I remember it fondly. One thing that came from the 80s that is best left forgotten was the Cadillac Cimarron.
Why bring this up you ask? My tester for the week, like the Cimarron, is a compact Cadillac. But other than size, it bears absolutely no other resemblance to that 80s abomination. As the Cimarron sales failed, GM kept producing their typical, larger-sized vehicles to great success, and kept any compact car ideas stored away along with big hair photos, Rubic's Cubes and leg warmers.
Realizing the need for an American luxury brand in this segment, GM proudly unveiled the Cadillac ATS during the 2012 North American International Auto Show to much fanfare. When GM President Mark Reuss pulled the sheet off the ATS that January day he immediately named the BMW
3-series as their target competition. The Europeans have excelled in this segment largely unchallenged from anyone stateside.
On looks alone, the ATS makes an immediate impact. The ATS has the new-look Cadillac styling with an aggressive, angular back end, with dual exhaust. The grille is similar to the much-larger XTS, but just on a smaller scale, including LED headlights. In fact, the shared looks of the XTS and the ATS are amazing, as there's a definite family resemblance for Cadillac's two newest vehicles. And, trust me, it's a good thing.
And as good as the looks are, the engine found in my tester was even better. I drove the 3.6-liter, V6 engine, which makes for 321 horsepower of finely-tuned fun. For a non-V8 engine, the engineers did a great job of making sure the engine had a noticeable and exciting purr. Torque was immediate, ongoing and responsive — throwing rapid, and easy acceleration during all points of driving. It was further aided by a six-speed automatic transmission that was up for the task.
Anyone who has read my column knows that I'm a fan of all-wheel drive. So I was really disappointed when my tester was the rear-wheel drive version instead of the available AWD. But, after taking it out on the open road, through twists and turns the handling was exceptional, and the few times I managed to get a little loose (due to my heavy accelerating through tight turns), well that only added to the exhilirating driving experience.
The ATS is available in two other 4-cylinder engines: a 2.0-liter turbo and a 2.5-liter. The V6 certainly delivers a driving performance that rivals the 3-series and the Mercedes C-Class.
Cadillac excels at interior design. It was an area where they failed miserably with the Cimarron, so it was great to see high-end materials, including leather seats, 12-way adjustable seats with lumbar support and faux, carbon fiber accents on the door. The available paddle shifters were made of magnesium. So the details were not overlooked at all. The seats were race-angled, so short-legged people might have to spend extra time adjusting the seat for comfort. The rear seats are angled similarly and aren't adjustable.
As I mentioned in my Cadillac XTS review a few weeks ago, Cadillac's new CUE (Cadillac User Experience) infotainment system is extremely young and hip and will appeal to the iPhone generation who are adverse to buttons and like sliding the volume up and down with a haptic-response touchscreen at their fingertips.
The Cadillac ATS is one of the lightest cars in the segment with a curb weight of 3,461 pounds. As such, it has a EPA fuel rating of 19 city and 28 highway. For maximum fuel economy, the 2.5-liter engine tops out at 22 city/33 highway.
To break into the segment, GM was wise to price the ATS in the affordable range. As such, the base model ATS starts at $33,095. My tester, the Premium trim, starts at $44,895. Throw in options like heated seats, heated steering wheel and all weather tires, and the final price of my tester came to $49,185.
GM accomplished many things with the ATS. The ghost of the Cimarron are once and for all laid to rest. But beyond that, and more importantly, the ATS immediately jumps into the compact luxury car segment and becomes a major factor. If the goal was to compete against the Germans, who have dominated this segment, it's most definitely mission accomplished for the Cadillac ATS.

Lightly hazy golden orange, ring of white head, some lace here as well. Smell is earthy and citrusy hops, grapefruit, lemon with some floral notes here as well, sweet bready malts and lots of dry hop. Taste is quite sweet and malty upfront followed earth and floral hops, moderate bitterness, more sweetness mid palate to finish, citrusy aftertaste. Medium bodied, light-med carbonation and a bit oily as well. Not a great American IPA, but a bit faded and sort of all over the place flavour wise.

Best by March 2013, bottle from the LCBO. 12oz bottle into a tulip.
Hazy browned orange, off white head. Film of retention, light lace. Nose is earthy, bitter, herbal and grassy with a hint of citrus zest. Palate is more malt forward, bitter earthy and leafy and reminds me of acorns. Drying, a bit bready and moderately bitter citrus finish. Medium feel, lighter medium carbonation. Not bad, but not an American IPA.

Italian wine? Good stuff. Italian beer? Not so much.
That said, this one was a bit of a surprise. Pours as a handsome beer. Big chunky head over a slightly hazy golden brew. Lots of lace as it settles out to a thin cap.
The aroma is very appetizing. Lots of orange that gives way to malt and yeast. A whiff of alcohol. Tastewise very hoppy, but with a strange finish. Can't quite put my finger on it, odd somehow. Initially sweet, but finishes quite bitter, slightly drying.
Decent enough, but not as good as North American brews. But impressive for an Italian brew.

3.43/5 rDev -8.3%
look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3
served on-tap, ABV for the beer is 6.5% and not 5.5% as reported
A- Dense, very hazy orange, with maybe even a hint of sediment. Nice and lively frothy white head, decent retention and loads of lacing on the glass
S- Much sweeter than expected with caramel malts among some kind of musty yeast feeling. Still smells fresh as an ipa should with strong notes of grapefruit along with some lighter orange notes
T- As the aroma suggested this is quite far from america's heavily hopped ipas. Grainy malts, with biscuit notes and again that musty herbal feel (on the raw side of resiny i would say). Overall this even quite sweet, but it may still be defined an american ipa cause american hops are clearly present, with assertive citric notes (expecially grapefruit), and aftertaste is dry and bitter
M- Medium body and carbonation, decently smooth but still nicely lively on the tongue. Nice mouthfeel, just nothing really worth noticing
O- Overall this is somewhere in the middle between english and american ipas. It has nice drinkability, but that musty feel is quite out of place for the style and the beer lacks both the sheer delicacy of english ipas and the assertive freshness of american ipas

look: 3.75 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 3.5
12oz bottle from the Ottawa LCBO for $3
Appearance - Hazy amber with an average size fizzy off-white coloured head. It's hard to make out the amount of carbonation showing and there is some decent lacing. The head lasted for around 3-4 minutes.
Smell - Hops, malts, grassy, grapefruit
Taste & Mouth - There is an average amount of carbonation and I can taste caramel, malts, and hops. There is also some grapefruit/tangerine and some light apricot and something along the lines of medicine/solvent. It ends with only a bit of bitterness.
Overall – Worth trying but don't be expecting a flavourful explosion like most other American IPA's have. It also doesn't have a whole lot of hop bite to it. I wouldn't buy this one again.

Bia IPA
Poured into a tulip glass this is a very solid looking IPA. Nice cap of rocky white head, really good retention, lacing is alright. Colour is an off-orange tan, no visible carb, bit un unfiltered haze. 3.75
S – fruity, sourdough bread, apple note. A bit of a sour-ey unripe fruit, peach, biscuit malt. Hops are hay and faint fruitiness, with a trace of some more oily herbal notes. Not much to be excited about yet. 3.25
T – a smooth start with more grassy oils then a bit more tropical fruit, mango, papaya, some orange citrus. Lots of bready malt and a fair bit of a caramel sweetness going on. Some nutty, dry fruitiness, apple, peach, leading to more slight herbal hop kick on the end. Finishing a bit more robust then edging out with a little crispness and drawn out yeasty grassy and spice flavours. 3.75
M – mild to moderate, with a fair bit of carbonation. Lots of malty body to it. Easily drinkable and refreshing, malt forward without a lot of IBUs or oily slickness. Ending is dry, aftertaste is lingering and herbal/grassy. 3.5
A tasty IPA with some pleasant fruity flavours and mild bitterness. I had trouble getting excited about this though. A good balance of bready and fruity/nut flavours and easy refresher. I was hoping for a bit more hop favour presence and slickness. Still its a well balanced and fairly tasty beer and worth a try but I would seek out others instead. 3.75

look: 3.75 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 3.5
Although exceptional flavour compared with many other Italian beers, definitely (imo) not up to the level of its American counterparts.
Pours a hazy copper with a reasonable white head that fades quickly. Surprisingly carbonated mouthfeel for the limited head and retention. Aroma is yeasty and musty, with none of the hop or malt notes that I expect from an IPA. However the taste is a pleasant surprise, with some pineapple and other tropical fruit elements in the body through the finish. Simple and not terribly well balanced, but enough flavour that I'm glad to finish the bottle.
Although not a beer I need more of (at least this release), a brewery I'll watch and support whenever I get a chance.

3.68/5 rDev -1.6%
look: 3.75 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.75
Beer is cloudy golden, a bit of orange. Small to moderately sized white head.
Nose contains some citrus, some pine and a herbal scent. I don't think the batch brought in by the LCBO was the freshest, and that is probably affecting the scent, as it is a bit lifeless. The herbal scent is not the best and is rather prominent.
Taste is a bit nicer than the nose. The citrus is more pronounced, mainly orange. Some sweet malty flavours, a bit of caramel. Some pine.
Medium bodied, strongly carbonated. A bit irritating.
Overall, not bad, and may be fairly nice when fresh.

look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
A - Hazy amber with a not-bad head of foam on a hardish pour.
S - Nose is sweet and hoppy, hints of grapefruit, fruit.
T - Sits on the sweeter side - maybe a bit too much. Sharp hop bitterness and a lot of fruitiness. Almost candy-like impression. A little bit of husky grain sneaks in the back door and a bit of an alcohol kick.
M - Smooth, even body. Not too fizzy and good heft.
D - Not bad. A bit sweet for my taste, but some nice flavour.

Somewhat overated. The promise of something good is teased from the initial orange citrus aroma, that on settling in the glass becomes more rather yeasty. Smells like a pale really, though strong bitterness and good drnkability. 1.5X IPA though not complex.

330 mL bottle from the LCBO; best before February 2014. Been looking for this one for a few months, as I'd heard about the LCBO including it in one of their earlier seasonal releases. Hopefully the extra months on the shelf haven't weakened it too much. Served slightly chilled, and poured into a tulip glass.
Pours a pale golden-amber colour, cloudy with sediment. Seated atop is nearly two fingers of puffy, frothy, delicate white head with excellent retention. It leaves behind luxurious swaths of sticky lacing as it slowly dissipates over the next five minutes or so. The aroma is clean and fresh, with plenty of orange citrus as well as some lemon/grapefruit rind, apricots, caramel and yeast. Typical of the style, but well-done nonetheless.
The flavour is somewhat unique amongst the IPAs I've tried previously. Bready pale malt and biscuity sweetness come through at first, followed by floral, fruity hops - with pineapple, mandarin, apricot and some slight piney notes. The finish is yeasty and somewhat musty, an interesting combination, though not a particularly orthodox one for the style. Dry finish, with hints of yeast and apricot lingering into the aftertaste. On the light side of medium-bodied, with relatively heavy carbonation that gives this brew a zippy, crisp mouthfeel that softens as the beer breathes and warms.
Final Grade: 3.75, a high B grade. Bia IPA is an enjoyable brew, but it's not exactly what I'm looking for from an India pale. This beer is not as intensely hopped or flavoured as most American-style IPAs - whether this is intentional or simply related to the fact that this bottle is close to 5-6 months old now, I cannot say for certain. To be fair, this is still a tasty beer, and the combination of citrusy, floral hops and the yeasty, musty finish gives this one a 'hopped farmhouse ale' vibe that I can see some people really digging... I'm just not one of them. An interesting beer that I could see myself returning to, though I'd probably wait until a fresher sample became available. Give it a shot.

Bottling due date of 02-2014.
(4.25) A: Hazy straw-copper with quite an attractive tall and creamy head. Pretty good retention with a sticky lacing.
(3.75) S: Herbal (weedy) and floral, orange, honey, spices, and a slight mothball-like kick. The general aroma is quite weedy with a bit of sweet floral and honey. Spices reminiscent of those found in pumpkin ale.
(3.75) T: Very similar to aroma with a general herbal-orange taste. Pine can be detected as well. Mellow spices including cloves and nutmeg. Equal parts malt and hops with a bitterness that's not overpowering.
(4.0) M: Medium-light bodied with a moderate carbonation. Slightly gritty with a spot-on level of slickness.
(4.0) D: This is a solid IPA that has a nicely balanced malt/hop profile. It's nice to have an IPA that focuses on the herbal and floral side of things, and it works here.

Picked this one up eventhough the best by date was over ( I got a deal). The beer had a monster head that never really went down. The colour was a orange gold with some protein haze from the age. The nose was quite hoppy and the beer seemed to be in good shape. This is a good IPA with plenty of malt to back the hops. I liked the thickish mouthfeel and could imagine how lucky local drinkers would be to get this fresh.

A treat to find at the local LCBO...
A - Pours a slightly hazy golden colour, finger of head with some retention and sporadic lacing.
S - A tad mild, slightly metallic, sour citrus and a hint of iced tea.
T - Unique citrus sweetness but offset by a sour citrus rind bitterness, sweet caramel, hints of pineapple, fresh evergreen notes and a touch of mandarin on the finish.
M - Medium bodied, a tad prickly and finishes with a touch of dryness.
O - A pleasant seasonal release and happy to find an adventurous brew from a country from which I've had few experiences. Solid hop profile that is nicely balanced and well worth a try.

Found this in my notes from my trip to Italy back in September. Tasted at a brewfest I accidentally stumbled upon in Florence, this was the best of the 4 or 5 I tried.
Pours a light and slightly cloudy orange color with a nice white head.
Aromas are nice, fresh hops, citrus, light grapefruit, and some hard candies.
Taste is much like the nose, nice hoppy IPA. Fresh hoppiness, creamy malts, candied citrus, and a light resiny and crisp finish.
Nice mouthfeel, full, smooth, and not heavy.
Solid take on the American IPA style. And done by an Italian brewery to boot. Well done Birrificio Del Ducato, I'd be happy to drink this one any time.

S caramel with some leafy hops, faint pine and some citric rind
T mimics the smell quite well but with a little more earthy hops and some biscuit
M medium bodied with enough bubbles to cream it up a bit without turning it to foam, very faint heat from the booze
O pretty decent stuff and unexpected being a IPA from Italy, there's some balance with enough malt to keep the hops in check
A bit of a surprise for me and I like good surprises, a bit of an English/American hybrid IPA interesting and worth trying

330ml bottle, 6.5% ABV in this incarnation; the label addressing makes for a difficult time discerning the specific origins of this offering. I'm just going to assume they've moved to bigger and better digs in the meantime...
This beer pours a hazy, sediment strewn golden amber hue, with two fingers of foamy, rocky white head, which leaves some nice chain-link fence lace around the glass as it evenly recedes. It smells of bitter citrus and pine hops, and bready caramel malt. The taste is more bitter pine and citrus hops, buttressed by some additional herbal notes, and a decent offsetting creamy caramel and biscuit bread maltiness. The carbonation is present, and well-behaved, the body a solid medium weight, and decently smooth. It finishes off-dry - in this case, a catch-all for the duality of the still-active bitter NW Yankee hops and well-represented malt.
Well, my Italian became played out after ascertaining that this is "Artisanal Double-Malt Beer". That sooo undersells this. Anyways, it was all I could do at each full stop in this review to not continually point out the eerie similarities to West Coast USA IPAs. This interconnected world we live is starting to really pay dividends...

Bottle: Poured a cloudy copper/amber color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and some good lacing. Aroma of rustic malt with dry floral hops with some nice ester is quite something. Taste is also dominated by loads of floral malt with some distinctive rustic notes. Hops notes are quite nice with almost zero bitterness and great huge floral notes. Body is full with limited filtration and good carbonation. Well brewed and super enjoyable. This is something I would enjoy drinking regularly.

I like the colourful orange label. I poured this bottle into a pub glass, but didn't realize there was sediment, so this review includes the sediment. This will be my first Italian beer!
This beer pours a very hazy pale amber colour with a slight coppery tinge. The head settles down to about a centimeter, and is very foamy.
The aroma is hoppy, rounded out with some malty sweetness. There is a slightly lemony aroma here too.
The flavour is tart with aromatic hops to start. This gives way to some gentle creamy malt flavours and some biting bitterness. The finish is slightly spicy, yet fresh with some slight citrus flavours coming through.
This is a very good IPA. If this was a bit cheaper, I'd have it on the regular.

Imaging Contrast and Biomechanics using Optical Coherence Tomography to Sense Superparamagnetic Iron Oxide Labeled Platelets Biophysical Journal, Volume 98, Issue 3, 1 January 2010, Pages 744a-745a Amy L. Oldenburg, Thomas H. Fischer and Caterina M. Gallippi Full Text | PDF (124 kb) |
The Clearance Mechanism of Chilled Blood Platelets Cell, Volume 112, Issue 1, 10 January 2003, Pages 87-97 Karin M. Hoffmeister, Thomas W. Felbinger, Hervé Falet, Cécile V. Denis, Wolfgang Bergmeier, Tanya N. Mayadas, Ulrich H. von Andrian, Denisa D. Wagner, Thomas P. Stossel and John H. Hartwig Summary Platelet transfusion is a very common lifesaving medical procedure. Not widely known is the fact that platelets, unlike other blood cells, rapidly leave the circulation if refrigerated prior to transfusion. This peculiarity requires blood services to store platelets at room temperature, limiting platelet supplies for clinical needs. Here, we describe the mechanism of this clearance system, a longstanding mystery. Chilling platelets clusters their von Willebrand (vWf) receptors, eliciting recognition of mouse and human platelets by hepatic macrophage complement type 3 (CR3) receptors. CR3-expressing but not CR3-deficient mice exposed to cold rapidly decrease platelet counts. Cooling primes platelets for activation. We propose that platelets are thermosensors, primed at peripheral sites where most injuries occurred throughout evolution. Clearance prevents pathologic thrombosis by primed platelets. Chilled platelets bind vWf and function normally in vitro and ex vivo after transfusion into CR3-deficient mice. Therefore, GPIb modification might permit cold platelet storage.

Identification of Different Proaggregatory Abilities of Activated Platelet Subpopulations Biophysical Journal, Volume 102, Issue 10, 16 May 2012, Pages 2261-2269 Alena O. Yakimenko, Faina Y. Verholomova, Yana N. Kotova, Fazoil I. Ataullakhanov and Mikhail A. Panteleev Abstract Blood platelets are anucleate cell fragments that play a critically important role in hemostasis and thrombosis. Platelets are activated with various agonists that allow them to aggregate, thus forming either hemostatic plugs or pathologic thrombi. Recent studies have revealed that at least two activated platelet subpopulations are formed upon potent stimulation of platelets with collagen and/or thrombin. One of these subpopulations consists of so-called coated platelets that express high levels of phosphatidylserine and retain α-granule proteins, including fibrinogen, on their surface. They also have reduced levels of the main aggregation receptor-activated glycoprotein IIb-IIIa, which might indicate a defect in their proaggregatory ability. In this study, the proaggregatory abilities of coated and noncoated platelets were assessed by means of light transmission aggregometry of suspensions with varying ratios of platelets from one subpopulation to those of a different subpopulation. A mathematical model of platelet aggregation in heterogeneous mixtures was developed to assist in the analysis of experimental data. Flow cytometry was employed to monitor platelet recruitment into aggregates and the ability of platelets to bind external fibrinogen. Finally, confocal microscopy was used to image coated platelets involved into aggregates formed by mechanical shaking. The obtained data revealed to our knowledge a novel mechanism regulating aggregate formation of platelet subpopulations: coated platelets cannot aggregate with each other but can be recruited into aggregates by noncoated platelets.

This article introduces a new functional imaging paradigm that uses optical coherence tomography (OCT) to detect rehydrated, lyophilized platelets (RL platelets) that are in the preclinical trial stage and contain superparamagnetic iron oxides (SPIOs) approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Platelets are highly functional blood cells that detect and adhere to sites of vascular endothelial damage by forming primary hemostatic plugs. By applying magnetic gradient forces, induced nanoscale displacements (magnetomotion) of the SPIO-RL platelets are detected as optical phase shifts in OCT. In this article, we characterize the iron content and magnetic properties of SPIO-RL platelets, construct a model to predict their magnetomotion in a tissue medium, and demonstrate OCT imaging in tissue phantoms and ex vivo pig arteries. Tissue phantoms containing SPIO-RL platelets exhibited >3 dB contrast/noise ratio at ≥1.5 × 109 platelets/cm3. OCT imaging was performed on ex vivo porcine arteries after infusion of SPIO-RL platelets, and specific contrast was obtained on an artery that was surface-damaged (P < 10−6). This may enable new technologies for in vivo monitoring of the adherence of SPIO-RL platelets to sites of bleeding and vascular damage, which is broadly applicable for assessing trauma and cardiovascular diseases.

Once a gold-standard best practice, is double confirmed opt-in for email marketing programs now "outdated" and a "terrible idea"?
Email marketing veteran (and, full disclosure, personal friend) Bill McCloskey thinks so, and list a myriad of scenarios that can go wrong when marketers take this virtuous path.
I'm hardly unbiased when it comes to confirmed double opt-in. When the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) sought recommendations for CAN-SPAM legislation back in 2003, I testified in Washington on the virtues of confirmed double opt-in.
Plenty may have changed in email over the past six years, but not that part.
Let's look at Bill's fallacious arguments.
1. "What a terrible idea if you want to grow your list!"
Confirmed double opt-in lists may not be as big as their single opt-in brethren, but they're infinitely more valuable, just as a few nuggets of gold beat a pile of pebbles, hands down. The gulf separating open and response rates between these two species of lists is a vast one, as common sense would dictate. You want the biggest list you can get? Fine. Me, I'll take the best list I can get.
2. "With deliverability the way it is, there's no guarantee they will even see the confirmation email."
Right you are. And if they don't see the confirmation email, they're not going to see subsequent mailings, either. So get your delivery problems solved. This one's a no-brainer. Authenticate your server and sending domain, encourage subscribers to whitelist your "from" address. None of these steps are remotely connected to double confirmed opt-in, they're stand-alone, proven best practices.
3. The confirmation email "just might get lost."
See above.
4. "The email just might get flagged as spam by your email client and go directly into the junk file."
Please re-read the bit about asking subscribers to whitelist your sending address in their email client.
5. "It's tough enough out there. Why make things harder on yourself and your clients?"
Who said this was supposed to be easy? You want a big list? That's easy. Spam. Add every email address you can lay your hands on to your lists. Buy illegal software that spiders the web to capture unwitting email addresses and blast away. You'll soon have yourself a big, fat list - guaranteed.
But smart, ethical, dedicated marketers - the ones who want solid results from their campaigns - know size isn't the only thing that matters.

The American Standard Stratocaster takes all the traditional features that have made the Stratocaster an iconic solid body electric guitar and, without adding any unnecessary bells and whistles, improves them with the knowledge gained from Fender's 50 years of guitar-making experience.
For 2012, the American Standard Stratocaster has been improved with Fender Custom Shop Fat '50s pickups. These have a classic 1950s sound but with "more attitude," due to their enhanced bass response. Models with three single-coil pickups feature 3 of these beauties and HSS models have 2 Fat '50s pickups at the neck and middle position, plus a sweet Fender Diamondback humbucking pickup at the bridge position. Remarkably, the models with these fine custom shop pickups cost only slightly more than their predecessors:
American Standard Stratocaster with Custom Shop Pickups
American Standard Stratocaster HSS with Custom Shop Pickups
American Standard Stratocaster Left Handed with Custom Shop Pickups
Traditional Features:
The features that have made the Stratocaster great are all here:
- Comfort Contour Alder body with polyurethane finish and 3-ply parchment pickguard
- 9.5" radius fretboard and frets with hand-rolled edges for easy playing.
- Four-bolt neck attachment with Micro-Tilt adjustment
- Two-point Synchronized Tremolo with Vintage Style bent steel saddles
- Tinted, modern C-shaped neck
- Deluxe Staggered Cast/Sealed Tuning machines with permanent lubrication
Modern improvements:
- The fretboards in both maple and rosewood versions have been polished to a high gloss making them both more beautiful and comfortable.
- The new Copper-infused, high-mass, 100% metal bridge block improves your ability to sustain notes.
- The neck has a gloss finish on the front, satin on the back to allow your hands to slide easily up and down the scales.
- Delta Tone system: a no-load tone control for middle and bridge pickups. The vintage Stratocasters came with no tone control for the bridge pickup, giving you the bright natural sound of the pickup. Later models were wired so that one tone control operated on the neck pickup and the other on the middle and bridge pickup. Some think this lost some of the vintage Stratocaster tone. The new Delta Tone system gives you a "no load" tone control allowing you to remove the tone circuit from the bridge and middle pickup at will restoring the brightness of the vintage Strat.
- New American Standard bent steel bridge saddles
- Staggered tuning keys
- Thinner undercoat for better body resonance

How do we create a healthy democracy in a time of political polarization? How do we carry out our responsibilities as citizens in an increasingly interdependent world?
These are some of the questions Cal Humanities and its statewide initiative Searching for Democracy tries to answer through five chosen books and public discussions.
The initiative already made its way to the Valley with the visit of the celebrated Peruvian-American author Daniel Alarcón in late March, and Wednesday this initiative will take place once again at the Meyer Memorial Library in Holtville.
The initiative tries to provoke community discussions, said county librarian Connie Barrington. In this occasion, the five books featured in the initiative will be previewed by Barrington as a way to introduce all of them to the public.
Semi-satirical American political novel by Sinclair Lewis "Can't Happen Here," and Rebecca Solnit's "A Paradise Built in Hell" are two of the books that will be discussed.
Solnit is expected to visit the Valley in October as part of the initiative.
With these books in mind Barrington will lead a discussion exploring questions of what it takes to have a democracy and what we need to have a democracy, she said.
Though "it's never too soon to talk about these issues with kids," Barrington said, discussions are directed for an audience that are at least high school students or older.
Aside from "thought-provoking books and have some thought-provoking discussions," books as part of the initiative will be raffled and refreshment will be served, Barrington said.

- Details
These indoor surface mount transfer switches are designed for fast installation in residential and commercial applications. The 18-inch flexible conduit whip attaches easily to the load center and all wires are clearly marked. Simply select the circuits needed in an emergency and connect them to the Pro/Tran wire leads.
Pro/Tran transfer switches feature a rugged powder-coated steel cabinet with six combination 1/2-inch and 3/4-inch knockouts, resettable branch rated circuit breakers and non-defeatable (break-before-make) double-throw switches. Some models feature exclusive Reliance wattmeters with accuracy of ± 3% throughout the entire range.
All models with a power inlet on the front *with exception to model 30216BRK* also include a cover for the power inlet opening that facilitates hardwiring. All models without a power inlet on the front include a covered opening that permits the installation of a power inlet for cord connection directly to the transfer switch.
A wattmeter panel (WP7500) is available for all models without meters (except models 15114A and 30114A). The wattmeter panel includes an opening, with cover, for an optional power inlet.

Easy install
Comment:Even being an old time handyman I must admit I was a little intimidated when I first looked at the install of a manual switch. Not to worry!!! This was one of the easiest installs I have done. The final product is excellent and I am very happy with my "insurance plan" should the power go out.John The GolferTennessee

Great Product
Comment:Easiest to install if your box is surface mounted like shown on the installation video, however, if your box is inside the garage wall it makes the instalation more challenging. You have to cut a hole in the wall to get to the breaker box and repair the hole afterward. Howerever, after assemble the transfer box worked like advertised.AdirondackTulsa OK
