I love peppermint (especially with chocolate) and I love cupcakes. But I'm especially excited that these are gluten-free too. I really need to make more of an effort to eat gluten-free. And what a delicious effort these would be :)
[…] Chocolate Candy Cane Cupcakes from Manifest Vegan: […]
i have to say, Allyson – those are by far the prettiest cuppies i've seen!!! fo 'sho. they're so yummy looking and delicate and festive and the colors are glorious in the frosting, and mmmmmmmmm! i'm a bit of a grump myself when it comes to the holidays. i abhor all the consumer craziness (i started asking for donations to animal sanctuaries and food programs a few years ago instead of gifts i don't need. which makes me feel a little better when people insist on getting me a gift.) and i'm not one for christmas music, unless i'm playing it on our piano – which is awesome because i skip all the songs i don't care for and can stop anytime. ;) anyways……your cuppies are awesome and i think it's the bees knees that you and your spouse put up a tree for your son. i am sure he sooooo super loves it – and lights, for as much of a grump as i am, do make me very happyfaced. we don't decorate for the holidays, but i might just have to get some lights and string them around the house. yay!
Cute cupcakes! Love your recipe.
this look amazing! i'm a vegan who recently had to give up wheat and finding your blog has been a life saver. i have a long list of "to make" from your blog and these are going on it, too. thank you so much for sharing such fabulous recipes!
They look perfect for Christmas!
I hate Christmas songs, too. Unfortunaltey I work in a store. They have music. I should sue them.
Those cupcakes are so beautiful! Thank you so much for the piping tip, I had no idea about this!
so amazingly pretty. so you can just put two bags together inside a larger bag with a tip. did you do halvsies or less for the colors? neat trick, never heard of it, but your results are so pretty!!!! i am officially off of sweets until i get better, but i just had pb toast and fig preserves for dinner, and realized the preserves were a no no. gah.
WOWOWOW just beautiful, as usual! These look absolutely amazing! Can't wait to try them out.
Thanks :)
I love chocolate and peppermint together!! We just recently made candy cane macaroons, just cannot get enough peppermint.
oh my goodness… just incredible! I love love love love love candycanes. And I especially love them in sweeties, like in ice cream or on cookies… or in cupcakes! I'll definitely try this recipe! :)
Do you EVER put a foot wrong in the kitchen? No and that's probably why I have checked your website at least half a dozen times every day since your last post. In fact, I was starting to worry about you. Instead you were at home trying every warding spell you know to counteract the mesmerizing effects of your little one's pleading eyes. Not ever gonna happen. Give it up. Well, cheer up, just think of how many more sizes your heart is growing with the happiness you've brought him from something so simple. Is there anything better in the whole wide world?
BTW every year since forever I've made about 20 batches of layered peppermint brownies. I've been trying to figure out the best way to de-glutenize and veganize them so I can scarf them down with everyone else and now I don't have to because cupcakes are even better, not to mention a whole lot easier. I'm kinda glad after all those warding spells didn't work. I'm selfish that way. And bah, humbug to you too, my husband pulled out our Christmas tree and I started groaning and whining. He actually laughed at me when I asked if we couldn't just skip the whole thing this year. Hmph!
oh my god, yum! I love the colors- so festive!
Candy Cane cup cakes?!?!?! That is awesome! I really love the idea and they look phenomenal.
Yum! I adore chocolate and mint, too.
Like you, I also experience that "bah-humbug" feeling at this time of year. I have no interest in conforming to the consumer-driven holiday, and having a dysfunctional family with divorced parents doesn't help. Baking has become my stress-reliever during this time of year. Your cupcakes are on my list!
That cupcake looks fantastic! What a great way to use up some candy canes.

Bird by bird, the avian population is shrinking
The songs of tens of millions of birds have been silenced. It feels as if the lights are dimming.
Brunswick, Maine
Forty-three years ago, when I reached what my grandfather imagined to be the eve of puberty, I was summoned to spend the weekend with him at his house in rural Connecticut.
I knew what to expect because my four older brothers had undergone the same rite of passage. The climax of the weekend would be the ceremonial presentation of a double-barreled shotgun, followed by sober instruction on firearm safety and general manliness. Next, my grandfather would take me on an excursion into the woods and we'd fire off a few rounds.
But when my turn came the ritual had changed. Instead of a gun, I was given a double-barreled pair of binoculars, and then my grandfather took me on my first bird walk.
I was bewildered. But within an hour my disappointment was forgotten, shoved aside by sheer awe at the sight of a redstart hovering in midair, the sound of a wood thrush's flute music, the swoosh of chimney swifts rushing in formation overhead. Out of the cacophony of the dawn chorus, my grandfather taught me to pick out the rhythm of a dropped ping-pong ball in the field sparrow's song and the towhee's exuberant "drink your tea!" By their silhouettes alone I learned to distinguish a phoebe and a kestrel.
That weekend my grandfather lifted the veil to a world that had not existed for me before. I didn't want our time together to end because I would have to go back to my family's farm where, to the best of my knowledge, there were no birds.
Of course, back home in the Berkshires of western Massachusetts, I found all the birds I'd been introduced to in Connecticut and many more, ambassadors of every color: electric-blue indigo buntings, blood-red scarlet tanagers, earth-toned veeries. I still remember the first blackburnian warbler I ever saw, his throat and cheeks so vividly orange, his face looked like it might burst into flames.
Spring and summer mornings thereafter, I'd wake up and listen to the birds singing in my backyard. If there was a sound I couldn't recognize, I'd throw on a shirt and pair of pants, grab my binoculars, and track it down, something I still do today.

Tank mine kills 16 in Pakistananti-tank mine An anti-tank mine, (abbreviated to "AT mine"), is a type of land mine designed to damage or destroy vehicles including tanks and armoured fighting vehicles.
Compared to anti-personnel mines, anti-tank mines typically have a much larger explosive charge, and a fuze designed killed 16 wedding guests in Pakistan's tribal belt on Friday as a deadly bombing near an air force base inflicted a further reverse on the military in its war on the Taliban.
A car bomb also exploded outside a restaurant in the northwestern city of Peshawar, wounding 15 and underlining the threat to civilians in a nation where more than 190 people have died during Taliban-linked attacks in 19 days.

The Red Cross complained Friday that relief workers were being kept out of the area, believing that the number of civilian casualties Civilian casualties is a military term describing civilian or non-combatant persons killed or injured by military action.

Pakistan's semi-autonomous northwest tribal belt has become a stronghold for hundreds of extremists who fled Afghanistan after the US-led invasion toppled the hardline Taliban regime in neighbouring Afghanistan in late 2001.
Security forces launched a huge operation against Islamist militants in Mohmand and Bajaur last August, but unrest has rumbled on.
The Islamists' ability to take the fight to the military's front door was illustrated when a bomber blew himself up during morning rush hour in the town of Kamra, near the Pakistan Aeronautical Complex The Pakistan Aeronautical Complex is a facility used to service, assemble and manufacture aircraft for Pakistan located at Kamra, Punjab, Pakistan.

On October 10, militants ambushed the army headquarters in Rawalpindi in an audacious attack claimed by the Tehreek-e-Taliban in Pakistan (TTP TTP (thymidine triphosphate): see thymine. ) movement.
Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani condemned the latest attacks and vowed that the government would not waver in its resolve to "root out terrorism" with nearly 30,000 troops fighting against the TTP in South Waziristan.
The offensive presents Pakistan with its toughest fight to date against Islamist radicals accused of plotting attacks on the West and blamed for attacks that have killed 2,280 people in Pakistan in two years.
"What we see now is a sharp and extremely worrying increase in the number of civilian casualties," said Jacques de Maio, International Committee of the Red Cross

Pakistan's army says says 142 militants and 20 soldiers have been killed since the operation against an estimated 10,000 fighters began Saturday and more than 120,000 civilians have fled the war zone.
Backed by helicopter gunships and warplanes, troops have been locked in heavy fighting that underscores the difficulty of dislodging diehard Taliban from bastions such as Kotkai, the hometown of TTP chief Hakimullah Mehsud.

text: Trailer Talk: 'Man of Steel' Villains Will Make Superman Break a Sweat Print article Send a Tip by Ezra Dulis 22 May 2013 post a comment Until now, I was only marginally interested in Zack Snyder's Man of Steel. The past few trailers were all familiar territory: the Kansas cornfield kid years, Supes flying faster than a speeding bullet, feeling like an outcast, magisterial score, etc. The only real changes from Bryan Singer's (in my opinion, underrated) Superman Returns were shaky-cam, a strawberry blonde Lois Lane (Amy Adams), and Clark Kent (Henry Cavill) working blue-collar jobs instead of The Daily Planet. That last one was a nice touch; finally we're getting hip to the fact that everyone hates journalists. The final trailer gives a fuller picture of the film's villain, General Zod (Michael Shannon), and it actually gives us a reason to care. I groaned when I first heard Snyder & co. were recycling the villain from Superman II. Superhero films--and adventure films in general--are only as good as their antagonists. If the viewer can't sense any danger, he or she has no reason for emotional investment. And what would new dimension would it bring to the Superman universe to see our hero just slug it out with another Kryptonian with a Millennial-friendly, "dark/edgy" makeover? Thankfully, the film's writers took a wholly different approach to Zod. Here we see not just three evil Supermen taking turns against Kal-El but an entire army, dressed as interstellar conquistadors but acting more like marshalls hunting down a fugitive. They seem like--after all these years--an actual threat to Superman. Further, the threat is twofold: if he doesn't turn himself in, they'll throw down some War of the Worlds mayhem all around the globe. And, being such bad dudes, we know they'll do that just to spite Superman anyway. We know that once he goes head to head with Zod, he'll pound him into jelly. But what about the rest of the army? What about those giant warships? What about that Incredibles/Doc Ock-looking robot? How is he going to get out of this one? And that is exactly the question we should be asking ourselves after a Superman trailer. Warner Brothers' marketing team just made this summer blockbuster a "Day 1" rather than a "maybe."

Primary: Idaho has a semi-closed primary system, in which parties decide who may vote. The Democratic Party allows unaffiliated voters to vote in their primary. The Republican Party allows only voters registered with their party. Unaffiliated voters can choose to affiliate with a party on election day, but they will be bound to that party at the next election as well.
Voter registration: Pending

Incumbent: Heading into the election the incumbent is Mike Simpson (R), who was first elected in 1998.
Idaho's 2nd Congressional District encompasses eastern Idaho and the Magic Valley region of the state and other outlying areas, as well as a small portion of the Boise Metropolitan Area, including two-thirds of the city of Boise itself. Other major cities in the district include Idaho Falls, Pocatello, Twin Falls and Rexburg.

May 20, 2014, primary results
Race background
Politico published a list in August 2013 of the five primaries to watch in 2014. Idaho's 2nd Congressional District was included on the list.[6]
In December 2013, the Republican primary race ranked nineth in a list from the Washington Post of the top ten races to watch in 2014.[7]
Mike Simpson (R), a close ally of House Speaker John Boehner, is facing what some are calling his most serious race since he was first elected to the House in 1998.[6]
"Idaho's 2nd Congressional District is turning into a proxy war for the middle-right of the Republican Party and the right-right of the Republican Party," said Phil Hardy, an Idaho Republican operative and a political analyst in the state. "It's already happening."[8]
Attorney Bryan Smith, who has the backing of the anti-tax Club for Growth and RedState founder Erick Erickson, is portraying the incumbent as insufficiently conservative and soft on spending issues.[6] Smith also has the backing of Rod Beck, a former state senator and an influential GOP activist in the state.[6]
Simpson, however, is taking the race seriously, raking in an impressive $306,000 during the second quarter. Smith, meanwhile, suffered an early setback when The Associated Press published a report last week that he had been using a donor's private airplane to fly to campaign events.
Since 1918, just one Idaho representative has failed to win his party's nomination before managing to win in the general election.[6]
Government shutdown
- See also: United States budget debate, 2013
On September 30, 2013, the House passed a final stopgap spending bill before the shutdown went into effect. The bill included a one-year delay of the Affordable Care Act's individual mandate and would have also stripped the bill of federal subsidies for congressional members and staff. It passed through the House with a vote of 228-201.[9] At 1 a.m. on October 1, 2013, one hour after the shutdown officially began, the House voted to move forward with going to a conference. In short order, Sen. Harry Reid rejected the call to conference.[10] Simpson voted to approve the stopgap spending bill that would have delayed the individual mandate.[11]
The shutdown finally ended on October 16, 2013, when the House took a vote on HR 2775 after it was approved by the Senate. The bill to reopen the government lifted the $16.7 trillion debt limit and funds the government through January 15, 2014. Federal employees also received retroactive pay for the shutdown period. The only concession made by Senate Democrats was to require income verification for Obamacare subsidies.[12] The House passed the legislation shortly after the Senate, by a vote of 285-144, with all 144 votes against the legislation coming from Republican members. Simpson voted for HR 2775.[13]
Rep. Raul Labrador said he will not observe the longstanding custom of endorsing fellow Republican Rep. Mike Simpson over primary challenger Bryan Smith.[14]
Simpson, however, says he will back Labrador over primary challenger Michael Greenway. "Well, let me just say I'm supporting Raul," Simpson said on August 8, 2013.[14]
The two colleagues also have abandoned plans to raise campaign money together. In June 2013, a joint political action committee, the Simpson-Labrador Victory Fund, was shut down after two years.[14] "It just never panned out," Simpson said.[14] The PAC, which raised no money, was closed by Labrador's treasurer, Cordell Chigbrow.[14]
Sharp and personal differences became public in January 2013, when Simpson blasted Labrador for leading a tea party faction that attempted to overthrow House Speaker John Boehner.[14] The effort was prompted by Boehner's support of ending Bush-era breaks on the top 2 percent of taxpayers.[14]
Simpson called Labrador, who received a vote for speaker from Rep. Justin Amash, "irresponsible" and said he had "substantially lost credibility." Labrador replied that Simpson was a "bully" and an "old-school legislator who went to Washington, D.C., to compromise."[14]
American Chemistry Council
American Chemistry Council's August 2013 ad, "Support for Rep. Mike Simpson (R-ID)"
The American Chemistry Council (ACC), a Washington, D.C.-based group headed up by former California Democratic Rep. Cal Dooley began running a TV advertisement praising Mike Simpson, who is "working to protect and create jobs" and whose top priority is to "cut government to grow our economy."[15]
"Fortunately, Idaho has Mike Simpson working for us," says the ad, which is slated to run for three weeks.[15]
The American Chemistry Council is not regarded as a frequent player in congressional elections, but Dooley, who came with Boehner to the House in 1990 and who served with him on the House Agriculture Committee, likes to help out the speaker's friends. To survive re-election, Simpson will be counting on the support of Washington's heavy hitters — and his friend John Boehner in particular.[15]
Bryan Smith
Challenger Bryan Smith released on September 5, 2013, a radio ad that attacked incumbent Mike Simpson for not supporting a recent tea party effort to defund the 2010 health care overhaul.[16]
"He won't join conservatives like Ted Cruz, Mike Lee, and our own Raul Labrador, Jim Risch and Mike Crapo in opposing any government spending bill that funds Obamacare," the ad's narrator said in the ad.[16]
Challenger Bryan Smith's September 2013 radio ad, "Odd Man Out."
Simpson's campaign responded to the ad by saying, "The only thing more ridiculous than personal injury lawyer Bryan Smith's selective ignorance of conservative Republican Mike Simpson's record fighting against Obama-care, is Mr. Smith's wild-eyed claim that Mike's a liberal in spite of the fact that Mike Simpson's earned A ratings from the National Rifle Association, National Right to Life, National Federation of Independent Business and the Chamber of Commerce. Fortunately, Idahoans know that Mike Simpson voted against Obama-care, has voted 40 times to either repeal or defund Obama-care and they are just beginning to know that Bryan Smith is merely a personal injury lawyer who predictably is going to say and do anything to try and get himself elected."[16]
Mike Simpson
Simpson began airing his first ad of the 2014 primary campaign against Bryan Smith on September 10, 2013.[17] The ad, a 60-second radio spot, three times calls Smith a "personal-injury lawyer" and four times accuses him of "dishonest attacks."[17]
The ad also four times characterizes Simpson as a "conservative Republican" and notes his top ratings from the NRA and National Right to Life.[17]
Simpson's radio ad is in response to Smith's 60-second radio spot, which called Simpson a "liberal career politician" and said he won't oppose "any government spending bill that funds Obamacare."[17] The Smith ad also characterizes Smith as a "courageous conservative."[17]
U.S. Chamber of Commerce
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce launched a series of ads backing Mike Simpson in early December 2013.[18]
"Mike Simpson, conservative, Idaho strong," the ad said. "Pelosi and her allies want more government spending and more regulations. No way. Mike Simpson is fighting back, working for a balanced budget, reducing our dependence on foreign oil, fixing the Obamacare mess."[18]
Rob Engstrom, national political director for the Chamber, said the ads mark the start of the organization's voter education effort as it looks to "protect and expand the pro-business majority in the House and gain seats in the Senate."[18]
"We will aggressively back candidates who support the American free enterprise system and economic growth, and oppose those who stand in the way," Engstrom said. "The focus is on conservative, pro-job, pro-business candidates who will ensure that former Speaker Pelosi keeps her title."[18]
Mike Simpson
- House Speaker John Boehner attended a fundraiser luncheon on August 26, 2013, to help his friend and colleague incumbent Mike Simpson in his bid for a ninth term.[19] Boehner and Simpson will be joined by Republican Gov. Butch Otter in making remarks to the luncheon crowd.[19]
Before lunch, Boehner appeared at a private event for contributors who made the maximum $2,600 contribution to Simpson for the 2014 primary election, said Brody Aston, Simpson's campaign manager.[19]
- Mitt Romney - 2012 Republican presidential candidate[20]
- Romey endorsed Simpson in a fundraising email on November 18, 2013. In the email he said, "Congressman Mike Simpson is a proven conservative and 'Idaho tough. But some groups from outside Idaho have decided to attack Mike and distort his conservative record. He needs our help to fight back and set the record straight."[21]
- American Dental Association spent $22,386 on mailers supporting Simpson, as of January 2, 2014.[22][23]
Refusal to endorse
- Rep. Raul Labrador stated that he would not observe the longstanding custom of endorsing fellow Republican Rep. Mike Simpson over primary challenger Bryan Smith.[14]
Byran Smith
Smith received endorsements from the Club for Growth and FreedomWorks.[24][25] The Madison Project endorsed Smith on September 10, 2013.[26]
Campaign contributions
In the third quarter of 2013, from July to September, Bryan Smith raised more than $275,000, and ended the quarter with $300,000 cash-on-hand.[27]
During the same period, Simpson said he set a personal record for fundraising, raising over $437,000.[28] At the end of the quarter, Simpson had $600,000 cash on hand.[28]
Simpson said in a news release: "I couldn't be happier with the response we are getting from Idahoans and with the strong momentum we are experiencing in this race. The people of Idaho know that I have worked hard to protect gun rights, promote a balanced budget amendment, and prevent the onerous impacts of Obamacare. The record setting response we're seeing to my conservative message confirms that we are on a strong path to re-election."[28]

Five Things Weird Al Critiques in Mandatory Fun

First, a couple of facts: (1) Cyndi Lauper was 30 years old when her solo album made its way onto turntables across the land, and (2) contrary to popular belief, Lauper can sing you know you love "Time After Time" and "Girls Just Want to Have Fun." A far more obscure and personal fact: Lauper's makeup-laden face (similar to the interrogator's mask in Terry Gilliam's Brazil), cooing orgasmic oohs and ahhs, was many times the source of prepubescent self-exploration for this writer as a young boy in Venezuela, my vision of Cyndi was wholly gratifying. And while new wave had died for my American counterparts, it was a great day in Caracas when She-Bop held a news conference in 1989 during her stop at the posh Tamanaco Hotel in a deliciously form-enhancing polka-dot dress. Mother never did quite understand why the hand lotion disappeared that day!
Cyndi Lauper plays with opener Jill Sobule at 8 p.m. Saturday, November 26, at Mizner Park Amphitheatre, 590 Plaza Real, Boca Raton. Tickets cost $35 to $45. Call 561-750-1668.

Animal Cruelty: My Thoughts, R.I.P. Puppy Rocko #blog #endanimalabuse
Why on earth did this douche bag think it would be a great idea to kill that puppy for peeing on the carpet all the time? He could have just returned the animal to the animal shelter if he couldn't handle the pet peeing everywhere all the time — any SANE person would do. People who kill for dumb stupid reasons, then send the picture in a text deserve a special place in Hell. And then the idiot was released after some days? I hope someone will choke and strangle this officer in the same fashion he did that puppy would be a great justice for the little poor animal.
Animal shelters more and more these days need to do a thorough background check on who they allow adopt the animals, as well as pet stores. If pet stores do not do a thorough investigation on who they sell a pet to just to make some money, whoever responsible for allowing these people to adopt/buy the pets should be an accomplice as well for animal abuse and sentenced. This needs to end once and for all. If I come across another article of an animal abuser I might just publish a series on these horrible inhuman Neanderthals hoping it will catch some news. This is the kind of thing that is news worthy, not some 15-year-old having sex with a hot pocket. /face palm.

I was laughing my ass off. I felt the sheets and they were cool. No wonder since it is over ninety degrees outside. Usually she's on this one chair in another room or in her dog bed most times.

Have to crop them, upload them to some wobbly local photo shop website (or through iPhoto, Flickr, Picasa, etc), select print sizes, glossy or matte finish, and on and on. And, usually, you have to do that all from a computer.

You can download Groovebook for free from the iTunes App Store or Google Play. Then, create a free account, and select the pictures you want this month. The pics go from your phone to your door with a few taps.

The pilot stated that during the initial climb, as the aircraft reached an altitude of about 150 to 200 feet, suddenly the engine ceased operating. He said he attempted to perform a 180-degree turn to get back to the runway, but the airplane had insufficient airspeed and altitude remaining, to complete the turn, and the aircraft "pancaked" into the ground. An FAA inspector who responded to the accident scene and conducted a postcrash examination of the aircraft and engine stated that he found that the front piston and cylinder exhibited galling, consistent with the engine having operated hot, and lean.

Posted Monday, April 8, 2013 --- 11:37 a.m.
ROSELAWN, Ind. (AP) -- A northern Indiana man who called 911 and told dispatchers he was driving drunk and needed to be taken off the road got his wish when a sheriff's deputy arrived.
State Police say 24-year-old Matthew Devore of Logansport was arrested early Monday along Interstate 65 in Jasper County. Police said Devore had a blood-alcohol level of .09, just over Indiana's legal limit for driving. He was being held at the Jasper County Jail on a driving while intoxicated charge.
State Police say Devore lost control of his car early Monday and it ended up in a grassy median with a flat tire.
Police say Devore then called 911, saying he was a drunk and needed to be taken off the road. A sheriff's deputy was then dispatched to the scene.

Outotec Oyj (Espoo, Finland; www.outotec.com) has received orders from ETI Alüminyum A.S. a division of Turkish CENGIZ Holding, to deliver green anode plant and rodding shop technology worth approximately €15 million. The order has been booked in Outotec's third quarter order intake. ETI Alüminyum plans to convert its current primary aluminum smelter — located at Seydisehir (Konya) in Turkey — from Soederberg technology to pre-baked anode technology.
ETI Alüminyum has one of the world's rare integrated facilities capable of producing aluminum from the bauxite ore to refined metal. Outotec will be providing technology, engineering, equipment supply and site supervision services for a green-anode plant along with a crushing plant for recycled carbon materials. Both plant sections will be integrated into the existing Anode Plant building. In addition, the two companies also agreed that Outotec will deliver the key process equipment for the anode-rodding shop and bath-removal facility.
The reconstructed aluminum smelter is scheduled to be commissioned at the end of 2014.

- Human Aldosterone Synthase Gene Polymorphism Promotes miRNA binding and Regulates Gene Expression. [JOURNAL ARTICLE]
- Physiol Genomics 2014 Oct 28.:physiolgenomics.00084.2014.
- AbstractPublisher Full Text
Hypertension is a serious risk factor for myocardial infarction, heart failure, vascular disease, stroke, and renal failure. Like other complex disease, hypertension is caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) plays an important role in the regulation of blood pressure. The octapeptide, angiotensin-II (Ang-II), is one of the most active vasopressor agents and is obtained from precursor molecule, angiotensinogen (AGT), by the combined proteolytic action of renin and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE). Ang-II increases the expression of aldosterone synthase (coded by Cyp11B2 gene) which is the rate limiting enzyme in the biosynthesis of aldosterone. Previous studies have shown that increased expression of aldosterone synthase increases blood pressure and cardiac hypertrophy in transgenic mice. Human Cyp11B2 gene has a T/C polymorphism at -344 positions in its 5'-UTR and -344T allele is associated with hypertension. Human Cyp11B2 gene also has an A/G polymorphism at 735 position in its 3'-UTR (rs28491316) which is in linkage disequilibrium with SNP at -344. We show here that (a) miR-766 binds to the 735G-allele and not the 735A-allele of the hCyp11B2 gene and (b) transfection of miR-766 reduces the human aldosterone synthase mRNA and protein level in human adrenocortical cells H295R. These studies suggest that miR766 may down-regulate the expression of human aldosterone synthase gene and reduce blood pressure in human subjects containing -344T allele.
- In Utero Exposure to Pre-Pregnancy Maternal Obesity and Post-weaning High Fat Diet Impairs Regulators of Mitochondrial Dynamics in Rat Placenta and Offspring. [JOURNAL ARTICLE]
- Physiol Genomics 2014 Oct 21.:physiolgenomics.00059.2014.
- AbstractPublisher Full Text
The proportion of pregnant women who are obese at conception continues to rise. Compelling evidence suggests the intrauterine environment is an important determinant of offspring health. Maternal obesity and unhealthy diets are shown to promote metabolic programming in the offspring. Mitochondria are maternally inherited and we have previously shown impaired mitochondrial function in rat offspring exposed to maternal obesity in utero. Mitochondrial health is maintained by mitochondrial dynamics, or the processes of fusion and fission, which serve to repair damaged mitochondria, remove irreparable mitochondria, and maintain mitochondrial morphology. An imbalance between fusion and fission has been associated with obesity, insulin resistance, and reproduction complications. In the present study, we examined the influence of maternal obesity and post-weaning high fat diet (HFD) on key regulators of mitochondrial fusion and fission in rat offspring at important developmental milestones which included post-natal day (PND)35 (2 wk HFD) and PND130 (∼16 wk HFD). Our results indicate HFD-fed offspring had reduced mRNA expression of presenilin associated rhomboid-like (PARL), optic atrophy (OPA)1, mitofusin (Mfn)1, Mfn2, fission (Fis)1, and nuclear respiratory factor (Nrf)1 at PND35, while OPA1 and Mfn2 remained decreased at PND130. Putative transcriptional regulators of mitochondrial dynamics were reduced in rat placenta and offspring liver and skeletal muscle (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma co-activator (PGC1)α, PGC1β, and estrogen-related receptor (ERR)α), consistent with indirect calorimetry findings revealing reduced energy expenditure and impaired fat utilization. Overall, maternal obesity detrimentally alters mitochondrial targets that may contribute to impaired mitochondrial health and increased obesity susceptibility in later life.
- TNF-α alters the release and transfer of microparticle-encapsulated miRNAs from endothelial cells. [Journal Article]
- Physiol Genomics 2014 Nov 15; 46(22):833-40.
- AbstractPublisher Full Text
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) encapsulated within microparticles (MPs) are likely to have a role in cell-to-cell signaling in a variety of diseases, including atherosclerosis. However, little is known about the mechanisms by which different cell types release and transfer miRNAs. Here, we examined TNF-α-induced release of MP-encapsulated miR-126, miR-21, and miR-155 from human aortic endothelial cells (ECs) and their transfer to recipient cells. ECs were treated with TNF-α (100 ng/ml) in the presence or absence of inhibitors that target different MP production pathways. MPs released in response to TNF-α were characterized by: 1) 70-80% decrease in miRNA/MP levels for miR-126 and -21 but a significant increase in pre-miR-155 and miR-155 (P < 0.05), 2) 50% reduction in uptake by recipient cells (P < 0.05), and 3) diminished ability to transfer miRNA to recipient cells. Cotreatment of donor ECs with TNF-α and caspase inhibitor (Q-VD-OPH, 10 μM) produced MPs that had: 1) 1.5- to 2-fold increase in miRNA/MP loading, 2) enhanced uptake by recipient cells (2-fold), and 3) increased ability to transfer miR-155. Cotreatment of ECs with TNF-α and Rho-associated kinase (ROCK) inhibitor (10 μM) produced MPs with features similar to those produced by TNF-α treatment alone. Our data indicate that TNF-α induced the production of distinct MP populations: ROCK-dependent, miRNA-rich MPs that effectively transferred their cargo and were antiapoptotic, and caspase-dependent, miRNA-poor MPs that were proapoptotic. These data provide insight into the relationship between MP production and extracellular release of miRNA, as well as the potential of encapsulated miRNA for cell-to-cell communication.
- Dietary supplementation with polyunsaturated fatty acid during pregnancy modulates DNA methylation at IGF2/H19 imprinted genes and growth of infants. [JOURNAL ARTICLE]
- Physiol Genomics 2014 Oct 7.
Epigenetic regulation of imprinted genes is regarded as a highly plausible explanation for linking dietary exposures in early life with the onset of diseases during childhood and adulthood. We sought to test whether prenatal dietary supplementation with docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) during pregnancy may modulate epigenetic states at birth. This study was based on a randomized intervention trial conducted in Mexican pregnant women supplemented daily with 400 mg of DHA or a placebo from gestation week 18-22 to parturition. We applied quantitative profiling of DNA methylation states at IGF2 promoter 3 (IGF2 P3), IGF2 differentially methylated region (DMR), and H19 DMR in cord blood mononuclear cells of the DHA-supplemented group (n=131) and the control group (n=130). In stratified analyses, DNA methylation levels in IGF2 P3 were significantly higher in the DHA group than the control group in preterm infants (p=0.04). We also observed a positive association between DNA methylation levels and maternal body mass index (BMI); IGF2 DMR methylation was higher in the DHA group than the control group in infants of overweight mothers (p=0.03). In addition, at H19 DMR, methylation levels were significantly lower in the DHA group than the control group in infants of normal weight mothers (p=0.01). Finally, methylation levels at IGF2/H19 imprinted regions were associated with maternal BMI. These findings suggest that epigenetic mechanisms may be modulated by DHA, with potential impacts on child growth and development.
- Identification of genes whose expression is altered by obesity throughout the arterial tree. [JOURNAL ARTICLE]
- Physiol Genomics 2014 Sep 30.
- AbstractPublisher Full Text
We used next-generation RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) technology to identify genes whose expression is consistently affected by obesity across multiple arteries. Specifically, transcriptional profiles of the iliac artery as well as the feed artery, first, second, and third branch order arterioles in the soleus, gastrocnemius and diaphragm muscles from obese Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima Fatty (OLETF) and lean Long-Evans Tokushima Otsuka (LETO) rats were examined. Within the gastrocnemius and soleus muscles, the number of genes differentially expressed with obesity tended to increase with increasing branch order arteriole number (i.e., decreasing size of the artery). This trend was opposite in the diaphragm. We found a total of 15 genes that were consistently upregulated with obesity (MIS18A, CTRB1, FAM151B, FOLR2, PXMP4, OAS1B, KLRA17, SLC25A44, SNX10, SLFN3, MEF2BNB, IRF7, RAD23A, LGALS3BP) and 5 genes that were consistently downregulated with obesity (C2, GOLGA7, RIN3, PCP4, CYP2E1). A small fraction (~9%) of the genes affected by obesity was modulated across all arteries examined. In conclusion, the present study identifies a select number of genes (i.e., 20 genes) whose expression is consistently altered throughout the arterial network in response to obesity and provides further insight into the heterogeneous vascular effects of obesity. Although there is no known direct function of the majority of 20 genes related to vascular health, the obesity-associated upregulation of SREBF2, LGALS3BP, IRF7, and FOLR2 across all arteries is evidence of a systemic pro-atherogenic phenotype switch with obesity. These data may serve as an important resource for identifying novel therapeutic targets against obesity-related vascular complications.
- Using normalization to resolve RNA-Seq biases caused by amplification from minimal input. [Journal Article]
- Physiol Genomics 2014 Nov 1; 46(21):808-20.
- AbstractPublisher Full Text
RNA-Seq has become a widely used method to study transcriptomes, and it is now possible to perform RNA-Seq on almost any sample. Nevertheless, samples obtained from small cell populations are particularly challenging, as biases associated with low amounts of input RNA can have strong and detrimental effects on downstream analyses. Here we compare different methods to normalize RNA-Seq data obtained from minimal input material. Using RNA from isolated medaka pituitary cells, we have amplified material from six samples before sequencing. Both synthetic and real data are used to evaluate different normalization methods to obtain a robust and reliable pipeline for analysis of RNA-Seq data from samples with very limited input material. The analysis outlined here shows that quantile normalization outperforms other more commonly used normalization procedures when using amplified RNA as input and will benefit researchers employing low amounts of RNA in similar experiments.
- Maternal PRKAA1 and EDNRA genotypes are associated with birth weight, and PRKAA1 with uterine artery diameter and metabolic homeostasis at high altitude. [Journal Article]
- Physiol Genomics 2014 Sep 15; 46(18):687-97.
- AbstractPublisher Full Text
Low birth weight and intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) increase the risk of mortality and morbidity during the perinatal period as well as in adulthood. Environmental and genetic factors contribute to IUGR, but the influence of maternal genetic variation on birth weight is largely unknown. We implemented a gene-by-environment study wherein we utilized the growth restrictive effects of high altitude. Multigenerational high-altitude residents (Andeans) are protected from altitude-associated IUGR compared with recent migrants (Europeans). Using a combined cohort of low- and high-altitude European and Andean women, we tested 63 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from 16 natural selection-nominated candidate gene regions for associations with infant birth weight. We identified significant SNP associations with birth weight near coding regions for two genes involved in oxygen sensing and vascular control, PRKAA1 and EDNRA, respectively. Next, we identified a significant association for the PRKAA1 SNP with an intermediate phenotype, uterine artery diameter, which has been shown to be related to Andean protection from altitude-associated reductions in fetal growth. To explore potential functional relationships for the effect of maternal SNP genotype on birth weight, we evaluated the relationship between maternal PRKAA1 SNP genotype and gene expression patterns in general and, in particular, of key pathways involved in metabolic homeostasis that have been proposed to play a role in the pathophysiology of IUGR. Our observations suggest that maternal genetic variation within genes that regulate oxygen sensing, metabolic homeostasis, and vascular control influence fetal growth and birth weight outcomes and hence Andean adaptation to high altitude.
- Gonadal transcriptomic analysis of yellow catfish (Pelteobagrus fulvidraco): identification of sex-related genes and genetic markers. [Journal Article]
- Physiol Genomics 2014 Nov 1; 46(21):798-807.
- AbstractPublisher Full Text
Yellow catfish (Pelteobagrus fulvidraco) has been recognized as a vital freshwater aquaculture species in East and Southeast Asia. In addition to its commercial interest, it is also attracted much attention because of its value in studying sex-determination mechanisms. A comprehensive gonadal transcriptome analysis is believed to provide a resource for genome annotation, candidate gene identification, and molecular marker development. Herein, we performed a de novo assembly of yellow catfish gonad transcriptome by high-throughput Illumina sequencing. A total of 82,123 contigs were obtained, ranging from 351 to 21,268 bp, and N50 of 2,329 bp. Unigenes of 21,869 in total were identified. Of these, 229 and 1,188 genes were found to be specifically expressed in XY gonad tissue for 1 yr and 2 yr old yellow catfish, respectively; correspondingly, 51 and 40 genes were identified in XX gonad tissue at those two stages. Gene ontology and KEGG analysis were conducted and classified all contigs into different categories. A large number of unigenes involved in sex determination were identified, as well as microsatellites and SNP variants. The expression patterns of sex-related genes were then validated by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) suggesting the high reliability of RNA-Seq results. In this study, the transcriptome of yellow catfish gonad was first sequenced, assembled, and characterized; it provides a valuable genomic resource for better understanding of yellow catfish sex determination as well as development of molecular markers, thereby assisting in the production of monosex yellow catfish for aquaculture.
- S-adenosylmethionine mediates inhibition of inflammatory response and changes in DNA methylation in human macrophages. [Journal Article, Research Support, Non-U.S. Gov't, Research Support, U.S. Gov't, Non-P.H.S.]
- Physiol Genomics 2014 Sep 1; 46(17):617-23.
- AbstractPublisher Full Text
S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), the unique methyl donor in DNA methylation, has been shown to lower lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced expression of the proinflammatory cytokine TNF-α and increase the expression of the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 in macrophages. The aim of this study was to assess whether epigenetic mechanisms mediate the anti-inflammatory effects of SAM. Human monocytic THP1 cells were differentiated into macrophages and treated with 0, 500, or 1,000 μmol/l SAM for 24 h, followed by stimulation with LPS. TNFα and IL-10 expression levels were measured by real-time PCR, cellular concentrations of SAM and S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH), a metabolite of SAM, were measured by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), and DNA methylation was measured with LC-MS/MS and microarrays. Relative to control (0 μmol/l SAM), treatment with 500 μmol/l SAM caused a significant decrease in TNF-α expression (-45%, P < 0.05) and increase in IL-10 expression (+77%, P < 0.05). Treatment with 1,000 μmol/l SAM yielded no significant additional benefits. Relative to control, 500 μmol/l SAM increased cellular SAM concentrations twofold without changes in SAH, and 1,000 μmol/l SAM increased cellular SAM sixfold and SAH fourfold. Global DNA methylation increased 7% with 500 μmol/l SAM compared with control. Following treatment with 500 μmol/l SAM, DNA methylation microarray analysis identified 765 differentially methylated regions associated with 918 genes. Pathway analysis of these genes identified a biological network associated with cardiovascular disease, including a subset of genes that were differentially hypomethylated and whose expression levels were altered by SAM. Our data indicate that SAM modulates the expression of inflammatory genes in association with changes in specific gene promoter DNA methylation.
- Dynamic Gene Expression Patterns in Animal Models of Early and Late Heart Failure Reveal Biphasic-Bidirectional Transcriptional Activation of Signaling Pathways. [JOURNAL ARTICLE]
- Physiol Genomics 2014 Aug 26.
- AbstractPublisher Full Text
Background: Altered cardiac gene expression in heart failure (HF) has mostly been identified by single-point analysis of end-stage disease. This may miss earlier changes in gene expression that are transient and/or directionally opposite to those observed later. Results: Myocardial datasets from the largest microarray data repository (Gene Expression Omnibus) yielded six HF studies with time-course data. Differentially expressed transcripts between non-failing controls, early-HF (<3 days after cardiac insult) and late-HF (usually >2 weeks) were determined, and analysis of KEGG pathways and predicted regulatory control elements performed. We found that gene expression followed varying patterns: Downregulation of metabolic pathways occurred early and was sustained into late stage-HF. In contrast, most signaling pathways undergo a complex biphasic pattern: Calcium signaling, p53, apoptosis and MAP-kinase pathways displayed a bi-directional response, declining early but rising late. These profiles were compatible with specific miRNA and transcription regulators: Estrogen-related receptor-α (Esrra) and myocyte-enhancer factor-2 (Mef2) binding sites were overrepresented in the promoter regions of downregulated transcripts. Concurrently, there were overrepresented binding sites for E2f and ETS family members (E-Twenty Six, including Gabp, Elf1, and Ets2), serum response (Srf) and interferon regulated factor (Irf) in biphasic-bidirectional and late-upregulated transcripts. Binding sites for miRNAs downregulated by HF were more common in up-regulated transcripts (e.g. miRNA-22,-133a/b, and -150 in early-HF and miRNA-1,-9,-499 in late-HF). Conclusions: During the development of HF, metabolic gene classes show early and sustained downregulation in HF, while signaling pathways undergo a complex biphasic pattern with early down- and more pronounced late upregulation.

Absolutely amazing piece of workmanship. I bought two at first and then purchased six more for the rest of our entry ways . I stained and polyurethaned them and they are beautiful! Everything I have purchased form Van Dykes is top quality!!!
I bought a pair of these outstanding carvings to add some flair to a plain ceiling beam in my 1970s house. The hanger on the back (shaped like an inverted keyhole) will make it a bit tricky to install, but well worth the effort.
I bought the last corbels similar to these, and I'm actually more pleased with these ones. The cuts seem more precise, and clean. They look a lot better than the display picture.

Soho restaurant
- c

Can anyone recommend a good, but moderately priced, restaurant in Soho for dinner on Saturday night? I'll be around W. Houston and Thompson and need to find a restaurant in the area.
Rocco (181 Thompson) is a pleasant, if nondescript red-sauce Italian stalwart, but French bistro's being my thing, I prefer Raoul's (180 Prince). Also, Jerry's at 101 Prince. Upscale diner with New American fare.
NB: You WILL pay more at Raoul and the crowds may be dizzying, too.
Other ideas (a little more upscale):
Il Buco, country Italian on Bond at Lafayette is a little out of the way and has changed chef's since my last visit, but the room is great and the food was too.
Balthazar, 80 Spring Street, the Keith McNally brasserie that started it all (for him, anyway) is surprisingly affordable (relatively speaking) but book your table NOW.
Blue Ribbon Sushi at Sullivan and Prince is about as good as Next Door Nobu but costs half as much (if you go easy on the sake).
I'll second Raoul's and Jerry's, and add these to the list:
Lupa (Thompson above Houston) - great Italian if you can get a table
Jane (Houston between Thompson and LaGuardia) - solid New American
Arturo's (Houston and Thompson) - old-school coal oven pizza
Peep (Prince between Thompson and Sullivan) - Thai in a fun space
Bistro Les Amis (Spring and Thompson) - French bistro, less expensive than Raoul's
Country Cafe (Thompson between Spring and Broome) - French-Moroccan
Mekong (6th Ave and King) - newish Vietnamese with pretty decent reviews on this board
Boy was I disappointed in Il Buco. The space is breathtaking. However the food was ordinary. We had veal, pork, polenta, greens et. al. The server and the menu are so pretenscious with overly effusive descriptions and praise for the food, the culinary region etc.
I concur with Balthazar, Blue Ribbon Sushi. Still need to get to Raouls. An institition.
What ever you do don't do dos caminos! I I like kittichai. Some may find it sceney.
re: Desidero
snack is fresh and tasty!
re: jsmitty
Out of curiosity, how does Snack compare in price to Midtown Greeks (overpriced, IMO) or Astoria Greeks (reasonably priced, IMO)?
Also is fish a focus or a compliment there?
I was thrilled to discovered Demetris recently, a reasonably priced seafooder on Broadway in Astoria that I'm sure has been around forever, it's just new to me.
re: comidaqueen
I'm in agreement. I really don't see what's so great about Snack. I found my pastitsio begging for salt and my friend's moussaka wasn't properly cooked. I didn't quite like the service I got either, so I haven't been back in years. Maybe it's changed in the past 5 years, but I doubt it.
re: JungMann
Corio is great, Ive been to their restaurant Marions country kitchen in woodstock. Its the same great food from up north, but this has great atmosohere and burlesque shows. I went with a group, the food was great and a we had a lot of fun. I totally recommend it.
re: drice1
so i see u been to CORIO? or anyone else been there??
im thinking of planning a bachelorette party dinner there..you think its a good idea? does the place consist of 2 rooms? a room where we can eat then watch the show? anyones help is appreciated...
Thanks, everyone. Someone offline suggested Corio at 337 W. Broadway. Have any of you been there? If so, what do you think about it?
If you can get a reservation and can afford it, go to my favorite, Balthazar...I never miss it when I am in New York!
Gotta try Goblin Market! I went there last night, awesome! I'll have a review up at some point: http://foodabee.blogspot.com
re: foodabee
Second Goblin Market. Great food in a small restaurant. Recommend the miso glazed hangar steak.
re: NYChristopher
We had a great dinner at CQ in Soho
Lure Fishbar has one of the most unique atmosphere's in Manhattan; great oysters, Florida stone crab, and awesome drinks.
FYI: I went to Goblin Market, which was great. I also tried Corio. The food was quite good, but the place is really a bar. It is empty at dinner time, but when we left at around 11:00 p.m., there was a long line through the downstairs area (the main restaurant/bar is upstairs), out the door, and down the block. People sit in groups at tables and order bottle service. They couldn't wait to get rid of us so that they could give our table to people who were there to drink.
