- 'Europe' and 'The Islamic World' : Perceptions and Stereotypes (2007)
- Pope Benedict XVI's Regensburg lecture has been exposed by some learned voices of 'the Muslim world' as alluding, by the means of one particular quotation, to age-old stereotypes about Islam being an essentially violent creed in which moderation through reason has no legitimate place, and of representing Muhammadas an evil and inhuman man who preached that Islam should be spread by the sword. While none of these presumably 'Muslim' voices deny that the Pope has the right to express his opinions, even when they are plainly wrong in the face of historic facts that show how Islam and Christianity were spread (or were made to spread) across the world, he is criticised for a host of omissions in terms of intellectual honesty and factual accuracy. These omissions, it is argued here, cast an unfortunate light on the compatibility of scientific and religious rationality much advocated by the Pope in his 12 September 2006 lecture. This flagrant 'performative contradiction' (Habermas) leaves room for speculation about the true aim of the speech. Is Benedict XVI's appeal to theology as a legitimate academic discipline a credible attempt to explicate Roman Catholicism's rightful place in a modern world governed by liberal democracy and ethical-political pluralism, or is it a reflection of a move to restore the age-old, intolerant, anti-scientific, and anti-democratic legacy of the pre-Vatican II Catholic Church?
- The Split of Reason and the Postcolonial Backlash (2005)
- Let's not forget that 1492, one of the first landmarks of Modernity, was both the year of the conquest of the Americas and of the fall or of the Reconquista of Granada, both of inner and outer ethnic cleansing of the nation state; that the national state was a colonial state and is now a securitarian state, that colonialism was the very form of Western Modernity, that the French Revolution itself was colonial, that the leader of the first Black revolutionary independence movement, Toussaint Louverture (Haiti), died in a French prison though inspired by the French Revolution. - No-one has access to reason as whole: there is no such thing as the whole of Reason, or Reason as a whole, or the Totality of reason. Reason is patched up of disconnected bits and pieces that reside at different addresses.
- Iqbal and Goethe : A Note (2005)
- The recourse to Goethe plays an important role in the work of Mohammad Iqbal (1873-1938), one of the few important writers from the Indian subcontinent who knew German literature. Iqbal situates his own writing in the context of western colonial expansion and the corresponding world-historical loss of power of Islam in the East. The recourse to Goethe becomes an import reference point in his work. It enables him to stylise himself as a Messenger of the East in reply to Goethe as a representative of the West. By establishing a comparative cultural constellation with his German predecessor Iqbal affirms a cultural position consisting of a mode of historical complaint and cultural revival.
- Haas, Willy (1891-1973) : "Homme de lettre" (2002)
- There are many aspects of Haas' life and experiences in India which deserve greater attention. I would like to refer briefly only to his attempts as a litterateur to come to terms with 'India' as presented in his autobiographical recollection and to some comparative cultural reflections in his essays. Like all reconstructions his autobiographical recollection of India is also a construct in which the site of India as a place of exile is justified by an achieved awareness between conscious individual choice and inevitability. An individual acts out a personal history, the prefiguration of which he only becomes aware of in the form of a subsequent epiphanic realization. Given Haas' literary background, it is not surprising that this is articulated through a literary association.
- German Romantics Imagining India : Friedrich Schlegel in Paris and Roots of Ethnic Nationalism in Europe (2011)
- When, some two centuries ago, German Romantics turned their backs on modernity – industrialisation, urbanisation, commerce and secularisation – they turned to ancient India. For them, India exemplified the primordial unity of mankind with this and the afterworld. For sections of the emerging nationalist movement in Germany, found the deployment of India handy to question the cultural hegemony, and eventually break the political dominance, of France. They tried to surpass the French, who claimed the ancient Roman heritage, by claiming an even older heritage for the Germans. Friedrich Schlegel for example suggested that the German language, and not the French, stood in unbroken continuity with ancient Sanskrit. For Romantics such as he, Sanskrit, the oldest surviving Indo-European language, was closest to the language of original divine revelation. This lead Schlegel to romanticise India in a way that stood in marked contrast to the Orientalist clichés current in other parts of Europe at the time. For him, the link between Sanskrit and German made Germany the true oriental self of Europe. The importance of this particular representation of India for the German national movement is underlined by the great number of university chairs that sprang up in the course of the nineteenth century: twenty two in Germany as opposed to only three in the United Kingdom. This paper explores the particular kind of 'inverse' Orientalism of the Germans in the context of its recent post-colonial critique.
- Implementing the Syntax of Japanese Numeral Classifiers (2005)
- While the sortal constraints associated with Japanese numeral classifiers are well-studied, less attention has been paid to the details of their syntax. We describe an analysis implemented within a broad-coverage HPSG that handles an intricate set of numeral classifier construction types and compositionally relates each to an appropriate semantic representation, using Minimal Recursion Semantics.
- Dialogue Acts in VERBMOBIL-2 : Second Edition (1998)
- This report describes the dialogue phases and the second edition dialogue acts which are used in the VERBMOBIL 2 project [...]. While in the first project phase the scenario was restricted to appointment scheduling dialogues, it has been extended to travel planning in the second phase with appointment scheduling being only a part of the new scenario.
- Zero pronoun processing : some requirements for a VERBMOBIL system (1994)
- Some requirements for a VERBMOBIL system capable of processing Japanese dialogue input have been explored. Based on a pilot study in the VERBMOBIL domain, dialogues between 2 participants and a professional Japanese interpreter have been analyzed with respect to a very typical and frequent feature: zero pronouns. Zero pronouns in Japanese texts or dialogues as well as overt pronouns in English texts or dialogues are an important element of discourse coherence. As to translation, this difference in the use of pronouns is a case of translation mismatch: information not explicitly expressed in the source language is needed in the target language. (Verb argument positions, normally obligatoryin English, are rather frequently omitted in Japanese. Furthermore, verbs in Japanese are not marked with respect to features necessary for pronoun selection in English.)
- Definitheit und Numerus : Anforderungen an den Transfer Japanisch-Englisch (1994)
- Das Problem des Transfers in der maschinellen Übersetzung von Japanisch nach Englisch ist fehlende Information über Numerus und Definitheit im Japanischen, die für die Wahl der englischen Artikel und die Nomenmarkierung gebraucht wird. Obwohl dieses Problem signifikant ist, beschäftigt sich die Forschungsliteratur kaum damit. [...] Wir bsaieren unsere Untersuchungen auf experimentell erhobenen Daten aus einem Experiment über deutsch-japanische gedolmetschte Terminaushandlungsdialoge [...]. Auf diese Weise können Phänomene bestimmt werden, die für die Domäne von VERBMOBIL relevant sind. Wir sehen unser Vorgehen in Übereinstimmung mit dem 'Sublanguage'-Ansatz [...].

reviews & comments (24)
I added 2 tbs of butter, 2 tbs of flaxseed, and didn't use the maple extract or the allspice. It was great!
I love granola, and have looked for a while for a low fat recipe - this is perfect! I used dried blueberries, almond extract and a pinch of salt. I also kept an eye out for over- browning. This will be a feature on my Easter breakfast table.
This is good granola. It will be a fun recipe to experiment with a little. I had no trouble with burning the granola and followed the directions.
pretty good. I agree to cook for longer at a lower temp. I think it lacked a little of the kick that comes from a tiny bit of fat so next time I will add a little butter or oil, maybe 3 TBS or so just for that little extra taste.
I usually heed the reviews but didn't this time and also overcooked it. Still it was good, and the second time I made it I cut back the time to 30 minutes, and turned over the granola after 20 minutes. Much better! This will be a keeper.
Love the flavor, color, and texture! It can be made with clusters still intact if you don't stir it too much while turning. No problem with the oven temperature or timing for me.
Absolutely the best granola recipe I've ever tried. I cut the initial cooking time down to 30 minutes. Also, I didn't include maple extract and thought it was plenty sweet and maple-y without it.
This granola came out just terrible. It was so burnt although the top that wasn't burnt had great flavor potential. I think that if I were to try this again that I would reduce the oven temperature and the cooking time.
Cut recipe and half - it was good. I didn't think it was overly sweet like some have suggested.
This is an awesome granola! I made it with pecans instead of walnuts. I've only made it with half the sugar - it is plenty sweet that way. A prior review spok of burning the granola; one has to realize every oven is different as are the pans. You can move it from the bottom rack up after the first 35 minutes. I especially like that it has no oil. Very nice to give for holiday gifts! Everyone that ate it (a crowd at church) absolutely loved it and wanted the recipe.

Exeter teacher investigated for possible relationship with student
A teacher at Exeter High School is on paid leave after being escorted from the building last month because of allegations of inappropriate behavior with a student.
Exeter police described their investigation as open and active.
"It involves an allegation of sexual misconduct between a teacher and a student back in 2009," said Capt. William Shupe.
The teacher is not being identified, and the superintendent wouldn't comment on the case, saying it's a confidential personnel matter.
Police would only confirm that the teacher is male, the former student is female, and authorities would like anyone with information to come forward to help in the investigation.
"What we're asking the public for is if there's any current students now that may have been involved in this kind of sexual misconduct with a teacher, we're looking for them to come forward," Shupe said. "We understand it's very hard to do that. There are ways to come forward, whether you come forward to us directly or maybe you come forward to your parent and your parent contacts us."
Shupe said anonymous tips can be made to Seacoast Crimestoppers at 603-431-1199.

While humans congregate in kitchens and dining rooms, rodents prefer a house's less populated areas, such as attics and crawlspaces. That's where Attic Star's cleaning crew heads to assess the damage left behind by unwelcome critters. The crew will remove any contamination, and disinfect surfaces to rid attics of bacteria and unpleasant odors. If rodents have sullied insulation or air vents, Attic Star's personnel will carefully remove the tainted pieces before replacing and rodent-proofing each part. In fact, Attic Star offers rodent-proofing for entire houses, which saves homeowners the hassle of moving into a giant mousetrap.
Like their wizard mascot, the technicians of Bugs Be Gone Pest Control Management zap household pests and rodents. Though not clad in starry robes, they rid homes and businesses of invasive bugs with their expertise in alchemical concoctions. The exterminators also trek onto pest-ravaged lawns and gardens to save chewed-up plants and arachnophobic lawn gnomes.
Common household pests such as ants, termites, cockroaches, flies, and spiders can carry up to 33 types of bacteria, including some that cause illness in humans. They can eat away at a building's framework, as well as homeowners' ability to confidently sleep with their mouths open. This is why Terminix technicians aren't satisfied with simply eliminating current pest problems—they strive to also prevent future infestations, and they guarantee their ability to do so.
Terminix team members know all the obscure places where pests like to hide: in water-heater closets, fireplaces, the centers of donuts, plumbing penetrations, and the weep holes in wood-veneer walls. Their response to an infestation varies depending on the home's unique situation, but services may include sweeping away spider webs and wasps nests from the eaves of the home, setting up traps, dusting and spraying interior or exterior crevices that are prone to pests, and spraying around the home's foundation.
While the name may seem a hollow and curiously numerical boast, Beautiful From Head 2 Toe backs it up with a staggering array of salon and spa services. Starting at the noggin, stylists shorten hair that has grown unruly, help curly-haired clients better manage their locks, and imbue tresses with nearly every hue from the crayon box except for "Invisible Sunset." For clients with corporeal beauty in mind, the beauty emporium serves up a host of different skin services including microdermabrasion treatments and exfoliating back scrubs. Hands and feet get their fair share of pampering during manicures, pedicures, and specialty services such as the rock star toes treatment that keeps nails shimmering for up to six weeks.
Happy, fulfilled bees work hard to help create the extensive list of products available at beekind. Honeys include a spreadable creamed variety in flavors such as cinnamon ($14 for 12.5 ounces), as well as infused honeys enriched with lavender, thyme, and chai spices ($17 each for 12 ounces). Either location's tasting bar ensures that each of its customers find the correct concoction for his or her honey tooth. The soaps, lotions, and ointments that beekind carries are derived from beeswax, pollen, and honey, which contain natural anti-bacterial properties. Nab a tube of VenoX ointment ($28) and harness the mysterious power of bee venom to aid a variety of ills, including sore muscles and sports injuries. Beeswax candles from beekind are harvested with extra tiny q-tips and come in a variety of shapes and sizes; the 3-inch pillar candle boasts 40 hours of burn time ($14). See the beekind website for beekeeeping supplies and additional bee-related products.

I take 100 mg for the past year +
I was prescribed this in addition to an antidepressant, antianxiety & antipsychotic. I tend to have chronic severe depressive episodes with my BP2. Maintaining stability takes a constant effort.
Within a month or so of starting Lamictal, several people commented on how much more "grounded" I appeared... first time I'd ever had other people notice & point out an obvious improvement (been on almost 20 different meds, dealing with psych issues since childhood).
I still have symptoms, but intensity, frequency and duration have lessened. I do have side effects that I believe are related to Lamictal, including mild-moderate acne, occassional back /joint pain/discomfort, and trouble finding the right word sometimes. For several months, I experienced hairloss ... a deal-breaker for me if it hadn't stopped. Overall benefits outweigh side effects of this particular medication for me.

The sound of bells ringing out from St Mel's Cathedral has returned to Longford town. The familiar sound was lost when the cathedral was destroyed by fire on Christmas Day last year. But now as plans progress to restore the building to its former glory, a new automated bell system has been installed and the hourly chimes are once again a feature of Longford life.

Category: cool names for girls
As the authors of a book called, ahem, Cool Names for Babies, we have put ourselves in the position of being the arbiters of coolness when it comes to baby names.
Which is a very hard thing to define. In the book, we deal with the question by pointing out, quite rightly, that there are many different kinds of cool baby names. There are vintage cool names and newly-minted names that many consider cool, there are the names of undeniably cool heroes such as Abraham Lincoln or Booker T. Washington and there are the names of cool literary or film characters.
On Twitter recently, we pointed out a name whose sound to us was undeniably cool — Domino — and the single response was someone saying: Um….nope.
So now we're turning it back on you. What names do YOU think are cool? And why?
Photo by the ever-fabulous Georgia Brizuela of Documenting Delight
Flower names have been a popular group for girls over the past few decades, with early favorites such as Lily and Rose giving way to more exotic blooms.
The very coolest flower names right now, we think, are a mix of the generic and the adventurous. We like names such as Petal and Posy that reference flowers in general without citing a specific species, along with a handful of adventurous varietals.
Our picks for the coolest flower names for girls:
A cartoon in a recent New Yorker features a little girl and her mother surveying Halloween costumes in a shop window. "I want to be whichever Disney princess is the most badass," the girl says.
Badass princess is an image that not only appeals to contemporary little girls but to their parents when choosing a name.
Like the hipster cowboy names we wrote about recently, badass princess names are appealing not so much because of their sound or their style but because of the complicated image they convey. These are girl names that are both decidedly feminine and rooted in tradition, but are not at all conventional or conservative. They're creative and edgy, but not invented or unorthodox like Blue or Bellamy.
Rather, these are names that could be – that in many case are – used for royalty, yet they're a lot, well, badder than names like Elizabeth and Victoria.
The badass princess names are classy and sassy, cosmopolitan yet earthy, chic but never trying too hard. It's an image that many an urbane parent can embrace for her daughter, and that a little girl can have fun living up to, in Halloween costume and beyond.
One of our most popular blog posts ever was on 100 wonderful names given to 25 or fewer girls each year. (We did a boys' version too.)
But what, we wondered recently, would happen if we narrowed the parameters even more? If we looked only at names given to ten or fewer girls in the most recent year counted? This still includes a mind-blowing total of nearly 10,000 names, but would we be able to find 100 great ones?
The answer, we believe, is a resounding yes, and we hope the list here proves it.
If you truly want an unusual name for your baby girl, this is the list for you. It includes underused classics such as Maude and Rowena along with international choices such as Anwen and Timea; ancient names such as Hebe and Hero; and newly-minted names like Cairo and Blue. And each given to only ten girls or fewer in the entire United States.
Our picks for the 100 best cool unusual girls' names, with the number of children who received it in 2012:
Our newest crop of baby names 2013 are a modern mix of ancient and contemporary. They include the name of the year's coolest car made famous by an early electrical inventor, a name shared by this season's hottest baseball player and a soldier in David's Biblical army, and a zippy new nickname for a classic Top 10 girls' name.

I didn't really enjoy the smell this time, but it has a nice feel in the mouth and I liked the finish.
A little more bitter than I expected (maybe I let it steep too long), but I got used to it and found I was enjoying the taste.
Very dark, more full-bodied than I expected, multiple levels of flavor. Not my favorite, but found it very drinkable with no sugar or milk added.
Very smooth, but I wish it had more of a minty bite; it reminds me of some black teas I've drank.
Yep, this is malty. But I enjoy the depth of flavor in this, though the the finish is offputting. Goes good with orange blossom honey.
Smells like a blueberry muffin, doesn't taste as sweet but it's nice.
Mild, not too bitter, doesn't need any sweetener. Been drinking this whenever I get the urge to snack.
Very crisp cherry flavor this time, bright red tea. Added a bit of honey to cut the tartness.

Restaurant operators' had a dampened outlook for sales growth and the economy in November, according to the National Restaurant Association's Restaurant Performance Index (RPI).
Capital spending was down slightly in October, with 46% of operators reporting a capital expenditure for equipment, expansion, or remodeling in the last three months. In September the level was 49%.
However, restaurant operators' six-month outlook includes increased planning for capital spending: 50%, up from 44% who said so in the September 2012.
The monthly composite index tracking the U.S. restaurant industry overall was down 0.9% from September to 99.5 in October. It was the first time in 14 months with an RPI below 100, signifying contraction in the index of key industry indicators.
"Although restaurant operators overall continued to report positive same-store sales in October, their short-term outlook for sales growth and the economy is decidedly more pessimistic," said Hudson Riehle, senior vice president of the association's Research and Knowledge Group. "Nearly two out of five restaurant operators expect business conditions to worsen in the next six months, which is double the proportion that expect conditions to improve."
The RPI consists of two components: the Current Situation Index and the Expectations Index.

City may create Newtown historic district
Date: May 18, 2009
by: Robin Roy | City Editor
City commissioners approved a proposal May 18 that would create a Newtown Conservation Historic District.
At the urging of Commissioner Fredd Atkins, the city may spend up to $50,000 to hire a consultant to research and prepare an application for historic designation.
The consultant would document the history and culture of Newtown, record Newtown's oral tradition, develop a walking tour and create a map of the proposed district's boundaries, which are roughly Myrtle Street to the north, 17th Street to the south, the railroad corridor between Lemon Avenue and Leon Avenue to the west and U.S. 301 to the east.

Demi Lovato: 'I've Never Kissed a Jonas Brother'
Despite forming an "emotional" bond with Joe Jonas, 19, on the set of Disney Channel movie Camp Rock, Demi Lovato says she just doesn't think of the Jonas Brothers in the loving way.
The "This Is Me" singer is Seventeen's cover girl for the mag's prom/winter special issue.
"I've never kissed a Jonas brother, period," Sixteen-year-old Lovato tells the mag. "That would be kind of weird. Even in Camp Rock, Joe and I never kissed."
Lovato's BFF Selena Gomez, on the other hand, probably can't say the same.
"We're all friends, but they're not the type of guys that I'd be into dating—or else I'd be dating one!" Demi confidently claims.
She does, however, go on to add that she considers Joe Jonas—who recently broke up with country hitmaker Taylor Swift, 20—a close friend.
"I can definitely call Joe a best friend," Lovato says. "On one of the first nights of filming Camp Rock, we sat there and spilled everything, and I talked about how I was bullied in school when I was younger. It was emotional, but it brought us close. I'm able to go to all of them with my problems."
And Joe just might be coming to her for a shoulder to cry on soon. The teen heartthrob is set to have an awkward reunion with his ex, Swift, during Dick Clark's Rockin' New Year's Eve special.
Joe, no!

Article: Angiotensin II suppresses adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase of podocytes via angiotensin II type 1 receptor and mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Adenosine monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK), as a sensor of cellular energy status, has been known to play an important role in the pathophysiology of diabetes and its complications. As AMPK is also expressed in podocytes, it is possible that podocyte AMPK would be an important contributing factor in the development of diabetic proteinuria. We investigated the roles of AMPK in the pathological changes of podocytes induced by angiotensin II (Ang II), a major injury inducer in diabetic proteinuria. METHODS: Mouse podocytes were incubated in media containing various concentrations of Ang II and AMPK-modulating agents. The changes of AMPKα were analyzed by confocal imaging and Western blotting in response to Ang II. RESULTS: Ang II changed the localization of AMPKα from peripheral cytoplasm into internal cytoplasm and peri- and intranuclear areas in podocytes. Ang II also reduced AMPKα (Thr172) phosphorylation in time- and dose-sensitive manners. In particular, 10(-7 )M Ang II reduced phospho-AMPKα significantly and continuously at 6, 24, and 48 h. AMPK activators, metformin and 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1β-riboside, restored the suppressed AMPKα (Thr172) phosphorylation. Losartan, an Ang II type 1 receptor antagonist, also recovered the suppression and the mal-localization of AMPKα, which were induced by Ang II. PD98059, a mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) kinase (MEK) inhibitor, also restored the AMPKα (Thr172) phosphorylation suppressed by Ang II. CONCLUSION: We suggest that Ang II induces the relocation and suppression of podocyte AMPKα via Ang II type 1 receptor and MAPK signaling pathway, which would be an important mechanism in Ang II-induced podocyte injury.Clinical and Experimental Nephrology 06/2012; · 1.25 Impact Factor
Article: Mechanical Stretch-Induced Protection against Myocardial Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury Involves AMP-Activated Protein Kinase.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) protects various tissues and cells from ischemic insults and is activated by many stimuli including mechanical stretch. Therefore, this study investigated if the activation of AMPK is involved in stretch-induced cardioprotection (SIC). Intraventricular balloon and aorto-caval shunt (ACS) were used to stretch rat hearts ex vivo and in vivo, respectively. Stretch preconditioning reduced myocardial infarct induced by ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) and improved post-ischemic functional recovery. Phosphorylation of AMPK and its downstream substrate, acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) were increased by mechanical stretch and ACC phosphorylation was completely blocked by the AMPK inhibitor, Compound C. AMPK activator (AICAR) mimicked SIC. Gadolinium, a blocker of stretch-activated ion channels (SACs), inhibited the stretch-induced phosphorylation of AMPK and ACC, whereas diltiazem, a specific L-type calcium channel blocker, did not affect AMPK activation. Furthermore, SIC was abrogated by Compound C and gadolinium. The in vivo stretch induced by ACS increased AMPK activation and reduced myocardial infarct. These findings indicate that stretch preconditioning can induce the cardioprotection against I/R injury, and activation of AMPK plays an important role in SIC, which might be mediated by SACs.Korean Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology 02/2010; 14(1):1-9. · 1.00 Impact Factor
Article: Regulation of type IV collagen alpha chains of glomerular epithelial cells in diabetic conditions.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: An early feature of diabetic nephropathy is the alteration of the glomerular basement membrane (GBM), which may result in microalbuminuria, subsequent macroproteinuria, and eventual chronic renal failure. Although type IV collagen is the main component of thickened GBM in diabetic nephropathy, cellular metabolism of each alpha chains of type IV collagen has not been well studied. To investigate the regulation of alpha(IV) chains in diabetic conditions, we examined whether glucose and advanced glycosylation endproduct (AGE) regulate the metabolism of each alpha(IV) chains in the diabetic tissue and glomerular epithelial cells (GEpC). Glomerular collagen alpha3(IV) and alpha5(IV) chains protein were higher and more intense in immunofluorescence staining according to diabetic durations compared to controls. In vitro, mainly high glucose and partly AGE usually increased total collagen protein of GEpC by [(3)H]-proline incorporation assay and each alpha(IV) chain proteins including alpha1(IV), alpha3(IV), and alpha5(IV) in time-dependent and subchain-specific manners. However, the changes of each alpha(IV) chains mRNA expression was not well correlated to the those of each chain proteins. The present findings suggest that the metabolism of individual alpha(IV) chains of GBM is differentially regulated in diabetic conditions and those changes might be induced not only by transcriptional level but also by post-translational modifications.Journal of Korean medical science 10/2009; 24(5):837-43. · 0.84 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: Inhibition of cardiac hypertrophy leads to a significant reduction in cardiovascular mortality and morbidity. Quercetin is by far the most abundant flavonoid and believed to ameliorate cardiovascular disease. Therefore, we investigated whether quercetin supplementation could attenuate the development of cardiac hypertrophy induced by pressure overload. Three weeks after suprarenal transverse abdominal aortic constriction, heart to body weight (HW/BW) ratio increased compared to the sham group (3.40 +/- 0.06 mg/g versus 2.83 +/- 0.02 mg/g, P<0.001). The quercetin administered group showed complete inhibition of cardiac hypertrophy (2.85 +/- 0.01 mg/g, P<0.001). Malonyldialdehyde production induced by pressure overload was suppressed by quercetin. The activities of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK1/2), p38 MAP kinase, Akt and GSK-3beta were significantly increased with pressure overload and attenuated by quercetin treatment. We conclude that quercetin appears to block the development of cardiac hypertrophy induced by pressure overload in rats and that these effects may be mediated through reduced oxidant status and inhibition of ERK1/2, p38 MAP kinase, Akt and GSK-3beta activities.Journal of Veterinary Medical Science 07/2009; 71(6):737-43. · 0.88 Impact Factor
Article: Epigallocatechin-3 gallate prevents cardiac hypertrophy induced by pressure overload in rats.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Pressure overload diseases, such as valvular stenosis and systemic hypertension, manifest morphologically in patients as cardiac concentric hypertrophy. Prevention of cardiac remodeling due to increased pressure overload is important to reduce morbidity and mortality. Epigallocatechin-3 gallate (EGCG) is a major bioactive polyphenol present in green tea which has been found to be a nitric oxide-mediated vasorelaxant and to be cardioprotective in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. Therefore, we investigated whether EGCG supplementation could reduce in vivo pressure overloadmediated cardiac hypertrophy. Cardiac hypertrophy was induced by suprarenal transverse abdominal aortic constriction (AC) in rats. Three weeks after AC surgery, heart to body weight ratio increased in the AC group by 34% compared to the sham group. EGCG administration suppressed the load-induced increase in heart weight by 69%. Attenuation of cardiac hypertrophy by EGCG was associated with attenuation of the increase in myocyte cell size and fibrosis induced by aortic constriction. Despite abolition of hypertrophy by EGCG, transstenotic pressure gradients did not change. Echocardiogram revealed that increased left ventricular systolic dimensions and deteriorated systolic function were relieved by EGCG. These results suggest that EGCG prevents the development of left ventricular concentric hypertrophy by pressure overload and may be a useful therapeutic modality to prevent cardiac remodeling in patients with pressure overload myocardial diseases.Journal of Veterinary Science 07/2007; 8(2):121-9. · 0.93 Impact Factor
Article: Local delivery of green tea catechins inhibits neointimal formation in the rat carotid artery injury model.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: It has been shown that green tea catechins (GTC) suppress proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and that epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), which is a major constituent of GTC, selectively inhibits the platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB)-induced intracellular signaling transduction pathway. Vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation is one of major mechanisms of restenosis following percutaneous coronary intervention. This study tested whether GTC can inhibit VSMC proliferation and prevent neointimal formation in a rat carotid artery injury model. Vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation inhibition was analyzed with [3H]thymidine incorporation. Green tea catechins were applied to the endothelium-denuded carotid arteries of rats for 20 min. Angiography and morphometric analysis was performed after 2 weeks. Green tea catechins decreased [3H]thymidine incorporation stimulated with PDGF-BB dose dependently. In the absence of PDGF-BB, the decrement of [3H]thymidine incorporation was evident above a concentration of 10 micro g/ml of GTC. Carotid arteriographic evaluation showed that the minimum luminal diameter in the GTC-treated group (n=12) was 5.9 +/- 1.6 arbitrary units (a.u.) and was significantly larger than in the control group (4.3 +/- 1.4 a.u., n=10) ( P <0.05). The GTC-treated group also showed a significant reduction in neointimal formation compared with the control group (0.29 +/- 0.11 vs 0.42 +/- 0.10 mm2, P < 0.05). To identify the active ingredients, we performed a similar experiment using EGCG. The effects of EGCG were similar to those of GTC. Green tea catechins effectively inhibited VSMC proliferation. Neointimal formation was prevented in the rat carotid artery injury model by local delivery of GTC. As EGCG showed similar effects, it may be one of the major constituents of GTC having these effects.Heart and Vessels 09/2004; 19(5):242-7. · 2.13 Impact Factor
Article: Mechanisms of the inhibitory effects of epigallocatechin-3 gallate on platelet-derived growth factor-BB-induced cell signaling and mitogenesis.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: An enhanced activity of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), such as the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) alpha-receptor (PDGF-Ralpha) or the PDGF beta-receptor (PDGF-Rbeta), is involved in the development of proliferative diseases. We have previously demonstrated that green tea catechins containing a galloyl group in the third position of the catechin structure interfere with PDGF-BB-induced mitogenic signaling pathways by inhibiting tyrosine phosphorylation of the PDGF-Rbeta. However, the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms are unknown. Using human vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) and porcine endothelial cells (AEC) stably transfected with PDGF-Ralpha and -beta, respectively, we demonstrate that EGCG preferably inhibited PDGF-BB isoform-mediated signal transduction pathways and cell proliferation. To elucidate cellular and molecular mechanisms of the inhibitory effects of EGCG, we studied the distribution of incorporated EGCG into cellular compartments after subcellular fractionation. Interestingly, most (85%) of the EGCG was found in the cytoplasmic fraction, whereas only ~2% was found within the cell plasma membranes. However, no alteration of membrane fluidity has been observed after treatment of VSMC with 50 microM EGCG. Binding studies with [125I]-PDGF-BB on EGCG-treated VSMC demonstrated that the specific binding of PDGF-BB was completely abolished. Moreover, when [125I]-PDGF-BB was incubated with VSMC in the presence of EGCG, a 50% reduction of cellular [125I]-PDGF-BB binding was observed. Our findings suggest that plasma membrane incorporated EGCG or soluble EGCG directly interacts with PDGF-BB, thereby preventing specific receptor binding.The FASEB Journal 02/2004; 18(1):128-30. · 5.70 Impact Factor
Article: Inhibition of the PDGF beta-receptor tyrosine phosphorylation and its downstream intracellular signal transduction pathway in rat and human vascular smooth muscle cells by different catechins.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Abnormal proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) as well as the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) plays an important role in the development of proliferative cardiovascular diseases. In this study, we show that treatment of rat and human aortic VSMC with 50 microM 2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-3,4-dihydro-2H-1-benzopyran-3,5,7-triol (catechin) and epicatechin (EC) fails to inhibit the PDGF-Rb-activated intracellular signal transduction pathway and VSMC growth. In contrast, 10-50 microM epigallocatechin-3 gallate (EGCG), epicatechin-3 gallate (ECG), and catechin-3 gallate (CG), which all have a galloyl group in the 3-position of the catechin structure, effectively inhibit tyrosine-phosphorylation of PDGF-Rb, PI 3'-K, and PLC-gamma1 as well as the PDGF-BB-induced increase in [Ca2+]i. The PDGF-BB-induced increase in DNA synthesis and cell number was inhibited by ECG, EGCG, and CG, but not by catechin and EC. Epigallocatechin (EGC) that has a galloyl group in the 2-position effectively inhibited VSMC growth without affecting the PDGF-Rb signal pathway. A reduction of 45% and 70% of the intimal and medial cell number in the S-phase, respectively, has been observed in the catheter-injured left carotid artery 7 days after treatment of Wistar Kyoto rats with 10 mg/day EGCG. These results suggest that the galloyl group in the P3-position of the catechin structure is essential for inhibiting the PDGF-Rbeta-mediated intracellular signal transduction pathway.The FASEB Journal 07/2002; 16(8):893-5. · 5.70 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: This study was designed to determine whether the relaxant effect of apigenin was endothelium dependent and to examine the possible antiproliferative effect of apigenin. Apigenin relaxed the phenylephrine-precontracted endothelium-intact aortic rings with IC50 value of 3.7±0.5 μM and removal of a functional endothelium significantly attenuated this relaxation (IC50=8.2±0.9 μM). However, apigenin did not affect the 0.1 μM phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate-induced contraction (IC50=34.6±1.2 μM) within the concentration range that relaxed the phenylephrine-contracted arteries, suggesting that apigenin did not influence protein kinase C-mediated contractile mechanisms in rat aorta. Pretreatment of apigenin significantly potentiated the relaxant effect of acetylcholine on phenylephrine-induced contraction. Pretreatment with NG-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (l-NAME) or methylene blue reduced the relaxant effect of apigenin. Apigenin (10 μM) increased the guanosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) content of endothelium-intact tissues. Pretreatment with l-NAME (100 μM) or removal of endothelium significantly suppressed the effect of apigenin on cGMP production. In addition, apigenin significantly inhibited [3H]thymidine incorporation into DNA of primary cultured rat aortic smooth muscle cell in a dose-dependent manner. These findings suggest that besides influx and release of Ca2+, nitric oxide (NO) and cGMP may account for the apigenin-induced endothelium-dependent relaxation and hypotensive activity. Both vasorelaxant and antiproliferative activities may contribute to a benefit of apigenin in the vascular system.General Pharmacology: The Vascular System. 12/2000;
Article: Vasodilating and hypotensive effects of fangchinoline and tetrandrine on the rat aorta and the stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rat[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Comparative studies of the effects of tetrandrine (TET) and fangchinoline (FAN), two major components of the Radix of Stephannia tetrandrae, on vasodilations and on calcium movement in vascular smooth muscle, and studies of hypotensive effects on stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSP) were performed in the following experiments. TET and FAN inhibited high K+ (65.4 mM) and induced sustained contraction in the rat aorta smooth muscle strips. IC50 values for TET and FAN were 0.27 ± 0.05 μM (n = 6) and 9.53 ± 1.57 μM (n = 6), respectively, and this inhibition was antagonized by increasing the Ca2+ concentration in the medium. The IC50 of TET for norepinephrine (NE)-induced contraction (0.86 ± 0.04 g) was 3.08 ± 0.05 μM (n = 4), and the IC50 of FAN for NE-induced contraction (0.88 ± 0.07 g) was 14.20 ± 0.40 μM (n = 4). At the molecular level, radiolabelled 45Ca2+ uptake tests revealed that TET and FAN also inhibited high K+ (65.4 mM) and 1 μM NE-stimulated Ca2+ influx in rat aorta strips at the maximal concentration was needed to inhibit the contraction. TET (3 mg/kg) and FAN (30 mg/kg) administered by intravenous (i.v.) bolus injection also lowered the mean arterial pressure (MAP) significantly during the period of observation in conscious SHRSP, respectively. These results showed that TET was more potent than FAN in blocking calcium channels and antihypertensive activity.Journal of Ethnopharmacology 11/1997; · 2.94 Impact Factor

We reiterate our long term 'Neutral' recommendation on
Interactive Brokers Group Inc.
), to reflect strong capital base and a liquid balance sheet. The
company's better-than-peer positioning and technological excellence
make us optimistic. Despite these positives, we remain concerned
about the Market Making segment's ability to consistently generate
sufficient returns to fund dividend payment.
Interactive has positioned itself at the crossroads of
globalization, adoption of technology, spreading of equity culture
and optimization of resource allocation on global electronic
networks. Further, the company has a very low level of compensation
expense relative to the net revenues, mainly due to its
technological excellence.
Additionally, Interactive continues to explore opportunities in the
faster growing markets. Thus, at present, more than 50% of the new
customers are from outside the U.S, resulting in a larger
diversification of revenues. With the Central Clearing Houses as
its counterparties, sole trading with exchange-listed instruments
and continuous monitoring of customer positions, the company has
been able to restrict its credit risk to a great extent.
Moreover, Interactive's robust capital base and liquid balance
sheet with a low leverage set it apart from its competitors. The
company was able to actively manage its excess liquidity and
maintain significant borrowing facilities through the securities
lending markets and banks. Also, from April 2011, the company
started declaring quarterly dividend of 10 cents per share and
since then has maintained the same level.
On the flip side, Interactive is exposed to certain risks related
to its international operations. Globally, the company faces
uncertainty related to political, economic and financial
instability; sudden changes in regulatory requirements; some trade
barriers; exchange rate fluctuations; and applicable currency
controls. Volatility of the U.S. dollar against other currencies
could be a near-term resistance to earnings improvement.
Further, Interactive's dependence on IBG LLC remains a cause of
concern. The company's primary asset is its 11.9% equity interest
in IBG LLC. Also, its controlling interest and related rights as
the only managing member of IBG LLC make it dependent on revenue
generation. If IBG LLC is unable to provide sufficient funds to
Interactive Brokers to pay taxes or for any other purpose, the
latter's financial condition may suffer significantly.
According to Interactive's latest dividend strategy, the regular
quarterly dividend will be paid from its Market Making segment. As
a result, the segment's capital base could decline over a period of
time. The segment's failure to generate sufficient return to pay
dividend will force the company to deploy its capital through
dividend, thereby lowering its financial flexibility.
However, Interactive currently retains a Zacks #4 Rank, which
translates into a short-term Sell rating. One of its peers,
Knight Capital Group, Inc.
) retains a Zacks #3 Rank (short-term Hold rating).

Another man appeared in court Thursday on felony charges alleging he was part of an elaborate check-cashing scheme that prosecutors say was organized by an Atlanta gang.
Jack Allan Miles, 43, appeared in Yellowstone County Justice Court on three felony charges of forgery by accountability. Each count charges him with cashing a forged check with a value greater than $1,500.
He is set to be arraigned in district court April 10.
Miles appeared on two cases, with two charges in the first case and one charge in the second. Judge Pedro R. Hernandez set bond at $7,500 in each case and ordered the bonds to run concurrently.
Charging documents say Miles is one of many defendants who were paid by men from Georgia to cash dozens of forged checks in October and November that netted almost $93,000.
Another wave of forged checks cashed in a similar way in January netted another $24,500, according to court records.
Prosecutors have connected all defendants in all the forgeries, and so far at least 13 people have been charged.
An affidavit states U.S. Postal Service inspectors have informed investigators in Billings that the suspected architects of the scheme are closely associated with a gang in Atlanta. The gang's activities have been under investigation around the country, including in Kansas; St. Louis; Sioux Falls, S.D.; and Eugene, Ore.

Sons of Anarchy Round Table: "Fruit for the Crows"by TV Fanatic Staff at . Comments
Is this really the end of Juice? What other question could be on the minds of our Sons of Anarchy Round Table, following "Fruit for the Crows," an episode that concluded with either the suicide of a veteran club member, or his attempted suicide.
Matt Richenthal, Dan Forcella and Christine Orlando debate this question, and a few others, in the following Q&A. Won't you pull up a figurative chair and join them?
What was your favorite scene from the episode?
Matt: Jax assuring Tara she was safe, and the camera then panning to her armed security guard in the kitchen. I actually laughed out loud at the dark humor. How did it work out the last time Tara was in a kitchen with an armed club member? Someone died, remember? Note to Jax: check yourself before you wreck your... marriage.
Dan: Because I've become such a big Bobby Elvis fan as of late, I would have to go with when the big man mustered up the courage to call up the vote for a new President. You have to give it up to Mark Boone Junior for the fear that he portrayed there.
Christine: I have to agree with Dan. I didn't see things going that way so soon,but the seriousness of calling for a vote to oust Clay sent a ripple effect through the club. No matter what the outcome, nothing will be the same.
Is Juice really dead?
Matt: Folks are claiming they can see Juice halfway into this promo. I'm not so sure. I'll go ahead and say yes because SoA is not a show that's afraid to shake things up.
Dan: I originally thought yes, but now everyone's talking about branches snapping and thumping on the ground, so I guess I've changed my mind. Whether it turns out he is gone or not, in the moment it was still some of the most haunting stuff I've ever seen on television. Just absolutely raw emotion from Theo Rossi, and I loved every second of it.
Christine: On the fade to black, there was a definite crack and it sounded like something hit the ground so I'm going to guess that Juice survives. What shape he's in, who finds him and what happens next are all questions I can't wait to find out the answers to.
Will Clay get voted out as President?
Matt: Yes. Jax will then be voted in and his plans to depart will suffer a serious blow.
Dan: It's a great question to ponder. If he gets voted out, Jax most likely becomes President, and continues his arc to being as destructive and violent as Tara could have ever feared. If Clay wins the vote, you know that he will take it out on Bobby. If Clay continues the way HE has been going, I wouldn't be surprised if he puts out yet another hit on a friend of his. Oh, actually answer the question? No he won't.
Christine: I doubt it. I simply don't see enough members risking ending up on Clay's bad side because if you vote against him and he doesn't get outed, you're screwed.
More likely result for Tara: She leaves town, she gets killed, she does some killing?
Matt:Can I brag first and say I'm interviewing Maggie Siff on Monday? This will be the first question I ask her! For now, my guess is that Tara leaves town. She's too caring of a mother to sit around and place her kids in this kind of danger.
Dan: Again with the tough questions. I will go with: she does some killing. Like I said last week, I think she will murder whoever the assassin is that comes after her. Eventually she will leave town, but not just yet.
Christine: I'm voting for she does some killing but, to be honest, if I were in her shoes I'd take my kids and run like Hell. Eventually I believe the need to keep her kids safe will be the breaking point for her and Jax.
As far as the question about Tara i think she'll wanna take the boys and run but before she can she will be the one doing some killing. I agree with the statement about her trying to kill her killer i think unser is gonna get ave accidentlly killed by Tara when hes just trying to protect her. thats just my outlook on it. Juice lived and thats that yes the branch broke and there was a thump i think if he just comes clean with the club they'll have his back i mean damn he cant help who is parents are plus he can let them know that new sheriff is dirty! I could only hope they vote out Clay but i know they wont it cant happen that easy!!!!Cant wait for tonight!!
Juice is not going anywhere. If you watch the live interview on the homepage they talk about how Juice is going to get some girl action this season and he hasn't gotten any yet so the noise at the end of the eppisode must have been a tree branch falling.
I agree with Josie C. Tara thinks she wants out but she draws her strength from the family/club and she knows that in the back of mind. I do believe the safty of her children is going to be her prioity. But to do that will she pull a Lyla or a Gemma. Will she run from it all to keep them safe or will she do like Gemma become hard and embrace the power you get from the club. In all honesty I think if the club was not involved with all the illegal crap she would have no problem with staying. The safty of the boys and jax are her focus. Maybe Tara wasnt put into his life to get him out out but to get him and the club out of all the bad shit.
I know that this is never going to happen, but wouldn't it be amazing if Tara ended up following in Gemma's footsteps? Waiting on Jax to make it so they can leave without fear, getting used to the lifestyle and growing harder, liking the power of being the old lady of the President or VP, eventually Clay 2.0 comes along with some slick lies and Jax has a nasty spill on the highway. Tara keeps saying she wants out and maybe she is just playing the part of the happy old lady of the VP, but there are moments when you see that she's a few years away from being just like Queen Gemma.
I am not totally sure Gemma knows the real reason Clay had JT killed either. once she finds out she may be singing a different tune where Clay is concerned
To Cool and Matt from TX, You guys are amazing. I'm obviously not utilizing my Tivo to its fullest extent!
you can see Juice's mohawk at 00:13 in the promo while the club is being shot up
if you stop the promo at 0:06 and you look between happy and bobby you can see Juice.
The fate of Tara, to live, to die, to stay or to go? I think the pres. vote will keep getting pushed, due to the threat from the cartel, charming hieghts, etc. I mean all these military men didnt see this coming, the rival cartel cutting off the supple lines for their enemnys (SONS and MAYANS).
Juice looked SO torn when Clay gave him the patch. His inner conflict lead him to his "killing himself"??? Maybe he will actually bring the Sons out of their darkness & back to where John pictured the club to be in the first place. Jax needs to remember he is a Dad now & learn what really happened to John so he, Bobby, Opie & a few others can GET CLAY OUT. I love Gemma, & I know Clay is her man now, but Clay isn't thinking anymore
