This one is excellent! CHICKEN WITH CASHEWS Mix together vinegar, soy sauce, and sugar, set aside. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet or wok. Toss chicken pieces in cornstarch, then stir fry them 5-7 minutes until cooked. Remove from pan and add onion, garlic, red pepper, and ginger. Stir fry 15 seconds. Add vinegar mixture, cashews, chicken, stirring to coat chicken, about 2 minutes. Serve over rice. I added mushrooms, pea pods, broccoli and water chestnuts! |
Thank you, Dishes, this looks marvelous, darling. |

Yummm...and how easy does that look! |
Thanks, I'll be trying that one very soon! Linda |

I forgot to say, it's not saucy, so I add more soy, vinegar and sugar (not a lot of sugar) |
Sounds really good, I'm going to try it. I guess with Chinese it's the sauce/seasonings that scare me away from making this cuisine. Thanks for making it sound really easy with stuff I have on hand. |

'Him nuh mix up'- Fans maintain Buju's innocence
Published: Sunday | December 20, 2009
Dionne Williamson, Buju's 'sister in spirit'. - Photo by Tennesia Malcolm
"IF IT was ganja, we would understand," said 58-year-old Daphne King from her gate at 47 Whitehall Avenue, Kingston 8, next door to the premises where embattled reggae artiste Buju Banton is said to have spent many of his childhood days.
King, along with her neighbours Violet Tyson and Natalie Mertell, had stepped outside the gate when The Sunday Gleaner visited the Kingston 8 community last Thursday to get the views of those close to the 36-year-old who has spent the last 11 days in a Florida lockup.
It was the same day that Buju, whose real name is Mark Myrie, was formally indicted on a charge of conspiracy to possess, with intent to distribute, more than five kilograms of cocaine. He is also charged with carrying a firearm during the course of a drug-trafficking crime. The deejay has vehemently denied the charges.
"I know him very well. I never hear of him involved in anything of the sort," King continued. "I don't know how him manage to get caught up in that."
"That is not Mark," said Kenisha Willis, a janitor at Buju's Gargamel Music Studios at 10 Carlisle Avenue in St Andrew.
wrong side of the law
But it is not the first time the Driver A singer has found himself on the wrong side of the law. Myrie was found guilty in March 2004 of possession and cultivating ganja after police raided his premises and seized five fully grown ganja plants. He was convicted and fined $9,000 or 60 days in prison. His legal team appealed the verdict but the conviction was recorded on his file and caused United States officials to place restrictions on his movements within that country.
His friends and well-wishers, however, refuse to believe that the toaster who accepted Haile Selassie as his saviour in the mid 1990s could in any way be 'mixed up' with cocaine.
A man who identified himself only as 'G' and who is said to have been in constant touch with the deejay since his incarceration, joined the ranks of the conspiracy theorists who believe Myrie was set up by gay and lesbian lobby groups
"Is a set-up that. We know seh DJ nuh deal inna dem tings deh," he said from the music studios.
"People wit dem own agenda (set him up)."
Natalie Mertell, 32, of Whitehall Avenue, was more direct in her speculation, claiming that gay men and lesbians "set him up", when she learned of the Drug Enforcement Administration's claim of having captured the deejay on video and audio recordings.
King also admitted that she had no prior knowledge of the video recordings, but still insisted on his innocence, saying, "He's not gonna be convicted."
Banton, who had earlier rounded up his tour of the US promoting his latest album, Rasta Got Soul, had again been at loggerheads with the homosexual community in the United States.
Website towleroad.com reported that "numerous dates on Banton's recent tour were cancelled after protest over the singer's anti-gay lyrics". Though Banton had sat down with gay activists from San Francisco in October, he seemed to have reverted to his militant views, stating afterwards that "This is a fight, and as I said in one of my songs, 'there is no end to the war between me and faggot', and it's clear. The same night after I met with them (gay associates), they pepper-sprayed the concert. So what are you trying to tell me? I owe dem nothing, they don't owe I nothing."
This statement reignited a fire that had burned since 1992 when the brash 19-year-old released Boom Bye Bye, an anti-gay anthem which promoted violence and death to homosexuals.
It is said that vigorous protest had forced a reimaging with the deejay re-emerging with a new look and sound. His Til Shiloh album in 1995 became a breakout hit and had positioned him as heir apparent to Bob Marley.
He followed up with albums such as 1997's Inna Heights and Unchained Spirit in 2000. But it was this year's Rasta Got Soul which would earn him the Grammy nomination for Best Reggae Album from the Recording Industry Association of America.
Though some believe his arrest will have no effect on whether he wins, there are those who aren't so sure.
For G, his conviction "nuh have nutten fi do wid music".
"If it was for morals and character, a lot of people who win Grammy wouldn't," he said. "It's no problem."
But Mertell was of a different view. "I don't think him a go win."
King believed that with a local incarceration, he would still be in the running for the golden gramophone. "If a did out here it happen, he would have a chance."
No Christmas treat
But even more than the potential loss of a Grammy award was the absence of the annual Christmas treat put on by the artiste for children in the Whitehall community.
They say every Christmas he would treat the children to toys and goodies on the lawns of Victoria Court, but as he battles for his freedom this year, there will be none.
"We will certainly miss him," said King.
"Him is so nice," Tyson continued. "Him nuh mix up and if he can help in any way, he will," she said of the community benefactor.
The community continued to express faith in his innocence.
"He is not guilty of that crime and, by the help of God, he will be free," said Dionne Williamson, Buju's 'sister in spirit'.
"We are not giving up. Tell fans to keep the faith and don't give up cuz it's a big set-up and rumour, and he's coming home," she encouraged.
"Him nuh guilty so him mus get off. Up to now him don't commit a crime. DJ nah have nutten fi do wit dis," G reiterated.

Video transcript: Double win for early-career researchers with top entrepreneurial skills and ideas for food security
You may wish to play the video in another window to watch it side by side with the transcript below. Alternatively, you can watch the video on our YouTube channel with captions.
December 2010
Dr Simon Mosey, Head of UNIEI
This year's Biotech YES is first in a number of ways. First of all we have got a record number of teams which is great and second of all I think they have been very imaginative in the kind of problems they are trying to solve in science.
Two entrants are then interviewed:
Entrant 1
The product we have been looking at is a delivery technology that would go through quantified layer of skin to deliver different peptides and different molecules. I would say that this morning has been quite nerve wracking. To go up last before lunch when you have seen two really good presentations already is very difficult.
Entrant 2
Our company is called DeeNature and we are selling oxalate free tea. We just did our pitch and I think it went ok. We were the first ones up so we didn't know what to expect.
Video switches to a board room with entrants facing the judges
A judge speaks first
What is better is that your property can meet the competition, how you come up with the 8% market penetration, based on the metrics of your company.
Entrant speaks
As I mentioned we can bet on the growth of the decaffeinated tea market so it is something that is in addition to every day tea. People have it instead of their tea every day.
Dr Andy Richards, Chair of the Judging Panel, presenting the winners
It has been great. It was fantastic. It has been particularly high quality and good fun and I hope, no matter what has happened, that you have all enjoyed this and that you have learnt a lot.
I have to say we did disagree with that. It was not plain sailing on either of the streets. Usually there is a head and shoulders winner so there are no head and shoulders winners but there are winners who we have agreed on and the winners are, in the environmental section, its Mara Mor.
Crowd applauses
And in the the biotech section, its Microbe Solutions.

Dear Club Leaders, Coaches and Team Administrators,
Wishing you and your family all the warmth and joy this Holiday Season has to offer. I am so thankful for your dedication and devotion to our young athletes. I look forward to working with you this coming year.
There have been several very important changes that the AAU has implemented this year. First, all non-athletes(i.e. coaches and administrators) must register with AAU well in advance of their first event or practice and then undergo a background screen. This is a confidential and relatively easy process that is mandatory. No one will be permitted to coach or participate in any way unless they are an AAU member and have been approved after the background screen is finished. I will assist you in completing the process if you wish. I can be reached at 516-351-6642. THIS REQUIRMENT WILL BE STRICTLY ENFORCED AND THERE WILL BE NO EXCEPTIONS. The purpose of this background screening mandate is the protection of the children entrusted to our organization. It is the first of a series of steps being taken by AAU.
The second critical step is the publication of rules pertaining to the coach/player relationship. There are a number of restrictions that must be followed. This, again, is meant to protect both the player and coach during the course of their interactions during the AAU season..
There is also an online coaching course that is required of all AAU non-athletes. The Positive Coaches Alliance offers valid and effective guidance for all coaches and is a helpful resource for all coaches.
The various Directors have established dates for the Bi-Annual Sports Meetings. An important part of those meetings will be an educational session regarding these new policies. All are invited to attend. The dates of the meetings are as follows:
BOYS BASKETBALL – January 16, 2013 @ 7:00 PM
GIRLS BASKETBALL – January 16, 2013 @7:00 PM
ATHLETICS – February 15, 2013 @7:00 PM
All meetings will be held at the Island Garden which is located at 45 Cherry Valley Avenue, West Hempstead, NY 11552.
I will be sending regular updates about AAU here in New York. Please plan for the upcoming season now so that this can be the best year yet for your teams. Finally, do not hesitate to call me if I can be of assistance.

The Allsteel Resource Center in Washington, D.C., has completed a renovation of its 10,800-square-foot space, overseen by local firm Hickok Cole Architects. The flexible floorplan references the history of the office furniture manufacturer, from the perforated steel feature wall inspired by Allsteel's origins as the inventor of the lateral file to the steel boxes filled with paper to display seating options.
The atrium separates the showroom into two distinct areas, allowing multiple functions. To the right, an educational area is used for meetings and events; to the left, visitors can gather in a casual furniture grouping. On the opposite side of the steel feature wall, a back-lit photograph of the Washington Monument is visible only when leaving the resource center.

A hand-me-down. Engine rebuilt at

fine car for 1991, but is starting to

excellent and the V6 puts a smile on my
face during passing.
Been told by the dealership that the
trannys have problems around 150K, but
ours is still holding in there. First
generation ABS also leaves a lot to be
desired. Interior panels have become
very brittle and are breaking off by
If you see one and it's in decent

1991 Toyota Camry Wagon LE V6 4dr Wagon
Excellent trouble free car, though
being a 4 cylinder vehicle, it does not
seem to have the pickup power one would
want, especially in city driving. The
vehicle has also been excellent when
driving on snow and ice-covered roads.
Layout of the car is excellent,
finishes are great. No complaint from
this driver after 11 years. Expected
to keep the car forever, but had to
relocate outside the country. Great car
and a tribute to Toyota's engineering
and attention to detail.

There is a lively discussion underway in the social sector about what it means to be "outcomes-focused" and the idea of "collective impact," which was also the title of an article in the Winter 2011 edition of the Stanford Social Innovation Review. In it, co-authors Mark Kramer and John Kania of FSG describe "collective impact" as an antidote to a common challenge in the sector – where "countless teachers, administrators, and nonprofits, together with billions of dollars in charitable contributions" produce only isolated improvements, not system-wide gains. Kramer and Kania look at exceptions to this rule - successful cross-sector collaborations like STRIVE in Cincinnati, Ohio, and Shape up Somerville in Somerville, Massachusetts – and they conclude that large-scale social change requires broad coalitions and five critical conditions: "a common agenda, shared measurement systems, mutually reinforcing activities, continuous communication, and backbone support organizations."
Now, a new case study from SSIR ("Networking a City") introduces what may prove to be a vital sixth condition – what the magazine dubs the "return on relationships" and what is more commonly referred to as social capital. The case study features the Barr Fellowship and the novel idea that the bonds of trust and respect that form among leaders are truly the "currency of social change." The Barr Fellowship is an investment specifically in those connections - without set expectations or requirements about what might emerge as a result. Yet, in time, the Fellows' collective impact on the city of Boston is becoming increasingly clear – with a few of the many good examples featured in the SSIR case study. In the words of one Barr Fellow, Lou Casagrande, a member of the 2007 Class, "We've done one-off projects on a limited scale, affecting hundreds of people. Now we're starting to do work affecting thousands of people, and we're seeing the payoff in the investment of time, money, and resources to build this network."
The Barr Fellowship was designed based on a whole body of research on networks, including work by Peter Plastrik and Madeleine Taylor, Jane Wei-Skillern, and others. For more information and resources about the Barr Fellowship visit: www.barrfoundation.org/fellows

Well, it was everywhere during the Regency, and the word actually referred to more than one material, each of which could be put to a different purpose, though all were somewhat similar in appearance. The uses for shagreen ranged from carpentry to scientific instruments to high fashion.
Those living in the Regency would have known the difference, and I thought perhaps those of us who like to slip back to that decade through novels set during that time would like to share that knowledge. To avoid chagrin, or perhaps, to embrace it?
Modern Historical Romance Over the Last Several Decades from Regan's Romance Reviews Regan
How We Got to Where We Are Today
Modern Historical Romance Over the Last Several Decades.
Or, A Recommended Reading List for the Uninitiated
from Regan's Romance Reviews
It occurred to me that as lovers of a genre it might be helpful to read some of the classics to see where we've come from and to enjoy the greats who have contributed so much to the craft.
I'm not going as far back as Ivanhoe, Pride and Prejudice or Jane Eyre.
I'm not even reaching back to the seminal novels of Georgette Heyer in the early 20th century.
No, I'm starting in the 1970s when the bedroom door was flung open never to close again. And while I may not have included your favorite author, by reading the romances on this list, you'll have a good idea of our beginnings and what so many wonderful authors have done for the genre.
Think of it as an education in modern historical romance. Where an author has written many novels (some early ones are still writing best sellers today), I tried to use their earliest work that influenced the genre.
So, here's the list of the historical romances I recommend you read. Each has something to show you. Some may require you to shop online for a used book, though many are available as eBooks. I'm not saying they will all be your favorites, or that they are all mine. And I realize some readers will think I left off one I should have included.
This is a sampling meant to give you a picture of how the genre has developed over time. Most are novels I've rated 5 stars, so I promise you won't be bored.
Included because of its significance…
• Bond of Blood by Roberta Gellis (1965)
The 1970s: The Pioneering Years

The Great Georgian Gambling Epidemic By Cheryl Bolen
In today's article, Cheryl Bolen gives us a glimpse of the extent of the rage for all forms of gambling in the late Georgian era, which includes the Regency. Some of the tales she tells would probably be rejected by today's Regency romance editors as completely unbelievable and yet, they are all true.

Regency Glossary by Donna Hatch – Carriages ( Part 2)
Regency Glossary by Donna Hatch ( Part 2)
Donna Hatch says…..
People in Regency England depended upon either horseback or carriage to get around. Many of them traveled extensively from their country homes to London for the Season, which was both a social and political time of year while the House of Lords was in session.
Roads were terrible, and weather and highwaymen often made travel uncomfortable as well as dangerous. To accommodate the Regency gentry or nobility, the styles, paint design and features of carriages were as varied as today's automobiles.
Image, status, and money, as well as personal taste, were all factors in choosing a carriage. Nobility had their family coat of arms painted on the side of their family coach.

Regency Glossary by Donna Hatch Part 1.
Lots of Regency authors, especially the members of The Beau Monde Regency Romance Chapter, use glossaries to explain words no longer in common use.
The Beau Monde will post some of these, bit by bit, and then combine them to make a larger glossary.
Do you have any words or lists that we can add to our expanding glossary? Types of carriages? Names for servants or workers? Commonly used items in the Regency Era?
We'd love to hear from you.
Our first glossary is Part 1 from Donna Hatch, regency romance author and a member of The Beau Monde chapter of Romance Writers of America.
Part 2 is a glossary of Carriage Types and will be in tomorrow's post.
Donna Hatch says…..
The Regency has its own terminology with which the modern reader may not be familiar. The following are a few terms I often use in my books that bear explanation.

Sir William Knighton: Prinny's Éminence Grise?
A cross-post from The Regency Redingote:
Over the years, I have read a number of biographies of George IV, as well as biographies of some of those who made up his circle. There were always brief, sometimes vague, references to one shadowy member of that circle, Sir William Knighton. But the substance of the man always seemed just out of reach. I could never get a good picture of who he really was or his true position in the Regent's household. I had the sense that Knighton may have been Prinny's éminence grise, just as Friar Leclerc had been to Cardinal Richelieu. But there was never enough information on Knighton to know for sure. Now there is.
In 1976, Dr. William I. C. Morris, an eminent doctor and professor of obstetrics and gynecology in Manchester, wrote a brief biography of Knighton, entitled "Sir William Knighton: The Invisible Accoucheur." That article was the first, and only, biography of William Knighton written since Knighton's death. But that article was published in the Manchester Medical Gazette, which was not widely circulated outside the medical community. Thus, there has, to all intents and purposes, been no biography of William Knighton available to scholars and those of us who are interested in Regency history, particularly of the people who surrounded the Regent himself. Until now. A few weeks ago, I received an email from Charlotte Frost, a historian who has written the first full biography of William Knighton in the nearly two centuries since his passing. She asked if I would like to review her new book, and sent me a copy when I replied that I would. Those of you who have corresponded with me privately know that I do not pull my punches regarding my opinion of Regency research materials, regardless of how I come by them, nor will I do so here.

Gail Whitiker – Featured Beau Monde Author
Gail Whitiker is today's Featured Author for The Beau Monde Regency chapter of Romance Writers of America.
Gail Whitiker
Originally hailing from Wales, Gail says her fascination with the Regency period began during frequent trips back to visit family and friends, when Sunday afternoon drives would inevitably lead to a castle, a cathedral, or a country house hotel (where she also discovered an unfortunate fondness for Devonshire cream teas and sticky toffee pudding).
She wrote her first novel in high school, but it was another twelve years before she actually sent something to a publisher and got The Call.
Since then, she has written over twenty historical and paranormal romances, both as Gail Whitiker and Gail Crease.
Her latest Regency novel, IMPROPER MISS DARLING, was a February release from Mills & Boon Historicals.
Gail makes her home on the beautiful west coast of Canada, where she's happy to say that umbrellas outnumber snow shovels.
She loves to travel and thinks the idea of writing a novel while sipping wine in Tuscany would have to be about as good as it gets!

18th Century – 21st Century by Maggi Andersen
I don't pretend to be an expert on fashion. I wanted to show some of the changes which have taken place over the last few hundred years to men's clothing, as well as the styles which have remained constant.
I've added a few tidbits I thought might be of interest. I've had to be selective here –the military influence on fashion, for example, is for another blog.
Regency Dueling Protocol by Donna Hatch
Regency Dueling Protocol by Donna Hatch
In England, dueling was part of a long-standing code of honor, far beyond a mere tradition. Gentlemen took their dueling very seriously; they would rather die than be dishonored.
Does your heart go pitter patter just at the sound of that? I admit, at times, mine does.
How many man that honorable do you know? Okay, maybe we'd call it misplaced pride, or an overdeveloped sense of vengeance, but hey, that was a different world with a different set of rules. And yeah, I'm glad they don't do it these days.
By the Regency Era, dueling was outlawed. However, duels still happened more frequently than many people knew. The problem was, because courts were made up of peers, they were reluctant to charge another peer with murder as a result of a duel.
Sarah MacLean – Featured Beau Monde Author
Sarah MacLean is today's Featured Author for The Beau Monde Regency chapter of Romance
Writers of America.
Sarah MacLean spent much of her childhood lurking in the stacks of her local library, where she developed both her passion for history and her commitment to the romance genre. Her love of all things historical helped to earn her degrees in history and cultural anthropology from Smith College and Harvard University before she moved to New York City, where she finally set pen to paper and wrote her own book. Since then, Sarah's romance novels have been New York Times and USA Today best-sellers, translated into more than a dozen languages, and nominated for numerous awards.
Sarah burst onto the romance scene with Nine Rules to Break When Romancing A Rake (Avon), the first in her best-selling and critically acclaimed three-book Love By Numbers series.
In early 2012, she released the first book in her new, pre-Victorian Rules of Scoundrels series, A Rogue by Any Other Name (Avon).
When she is not writing, Sarah travels the country to discuss the romance genre and its place in both gender and cultural studies. She is also a vocal advocate for issues relating to education and literacy.
She lives in New York City with her husband, their dog and a ridiculously large collection of romance novels.
Beau Brummell in our Regency Promenade by Nancy Mayer
In our Regency Promenade today, Nancy Mayer looks at Beau Brummell.
Beau Brummell (1778 – 1840)
I do not like Beau Brummell and think he has been credited with more than he accomplished.
George Brummell was born in 1778. His father is said to have been a private secretary to Lord North, who was prime Minister of England from 1770- 1782.
It is said that his father had been a tradesman and he was determined that his children should be raised as gentry. Wikipedia says George was sent to Eton and Oxford. These institutions seemed to have turned him against books and learning, or any deep thought.
He was enrolled in the 10th Hussars, the Prince's Own, also called the Prince's Dolls, The Prince of Wales liked to design uniforms. A majority of the officers of this regiment were heirs to peerages and or were wealthy. Brummell, like another George, George Leigh couldn't keep up with them.

MORE THAN A STRANGER by Erin KnightleyNAL Signet Eclipse, 9780451237712Regency Historical – June 5th (debut!) releaseWhen his family abandoned him at Eton, Benedict Hastings found an unexpected ally in his best friend's sister. Her letters kept him going—until the day he had to leave everything behind. Years later, Benedict has seen his share of betrayal, but when treachery hits close to home, he turns to his old friend for safe haven…. After five torturous years on the marriage circuit, Lady Evelyn Moore is finally free to live her life as she wishes. So when her brother shows up with a dashing stranger, she finds herself torn between her dreams…and newfound desires. Despite his determination to keep Evie at a distance, Benedict cannot deny the attraction that began with a secret correspondence. Yet as they begin to discover one another, the dangers of Benedict's world find them, threatening their lives, their love, and everything they thought they could never have… "Knightley's entertaining debut sparks the imagination, as she connects her story with snippets of letters — through which the characters begin a sweet, emotional, courtship. It's the tenderness Knightley evokes, as well as her appealing characters, that wins our hearts. Readers will eagerly await the next Sealed With a Kiss novel." – RT Book Reviews Twitter: @ErinKnightley |

Sansevieria parva is one of my favorite houseplants. I stumbled upon this thread in the Arizona Gardening forum here on GW: |
Here is a link that might be useful: S. parva
Follow-Up Postings:
I love my Sansevieria parva. It took a while to get established, but after that initial year, it grows faster than any other Sansevieria I have. I started with one small plant, and it flowered after one year. It sent out a runner and produced five pups that winter. I'd bet that each of those pups has produced a couple of pups themselves since. I do get more pups after a mature plant flowers - now my pots are bursting every spring. I've traded a lot of these over the years, and everyone has been pleased. I grow mine in terra cotta, but friends grow theirs in mossed baskets so the runners can hang. I don't like hanging plants as a rule, but the S. parva looks neat - people know it isn't a spider plant, but frequently can't figure out what it is. And the flowers do have a nice aroma (but they do get sticky indoors in the winter). I also grow a couple fo the S. parva variegates, and these have been VERY slow to get started - over 3 years in some cases. I can't wait until I have a pot bursting with the parva 'white' on my hands. Joe 'but that will be a couple more years' DeRosa |

Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Clementine von Calaui!
Facts about Clementine von Calaui
- Breed: German Shepherd Dog
- Color: Black - With Tan, Yellow Or Fawn
- Age: Puppy
- Size: Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
- Sex: Female
Clementine von Calaui's Info...
I am already spayed and purebred.
Clementine von Calaui is a gorgeous 10 month old German Shepherd.
Other Pets at Westside German Shepherd Rescue of Los Angeles
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Clementine von Calaui, a Los Angeles German Shepherd Dog puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a German Shepherd Dog for sale in Los Angeles, or seeking a German Shepherd Dog puppy from a breeder in Los Angeles.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Los Angeles already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Los Angeles breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even German Shepherd Dog breeders who help with German Shepherd Dog rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Los Angeles paves the way for another one to be saved.

Summary: Biochemistry, Third Edition merges a classical organization and presentation with contemporary insight, information, and technology, to make modern biochemistry interesting and accessible to today's students. Thoroughly updated to include the latest information, perspectives, and experimental techniques, the text is now supported by integrated media resources designed by the new co-author Kevin Ahern. Together, the text and media resources provide students and ...show more instructors with a doorway to the vast world of biochemistry that is continuously evolving and which greatly exceeds what could be covered in a conventional textbook alone. As in previous editions, the authors introduce nucleic acid structure early (to clarify presentations of protein structure and function), emphasize the experimental roots of biochemistry (past and present), continually emphasize the energy relationships in biochemistry, and take a stepwise approach to complex metabolic pathways. The result is a thorough grounding in biology at the atomic/molecular level. The explosive growth of biochemistry, molecular biology, and biotechnology makes this approach particularly relevant for today's life science students.

A great standard recipe that allows the quality of great calf's liver shine through. Mine came from a local farmer who does things right!!
Very good, but missing something. I added sage and finished browning the onions after the liver had cooked, so I could soak up those tasty brown bits. This is a good recipe for a super-quick weekday meal, but if I had more time I definitely prefer the Sauteed Calf's Liver with Red Wine Vinegar recipe on here.
My family is one of few that love this dish. I made this for my mom - she hadn't had liver & onions for years! It brought back childhood memories for all of us!

Three Treatments Slow Skin Cancer
Posted: August 29, 2006
Acid skin peel, laser resurfacing, and a chemotherapy cream all remove precancerous skin growths and slow cancer -- but patients prefer the peel.Precancerous growths, small areas of discrete roughness to the skin, come from too much sun, note VA researcher Basil M. Hantash, MD, PhD, and colleagues. Particularly when a person has a lot of them, they tend to become squamous cell carcinomas: cancer.
Doctors often burn off these growths, called actinic keratoses, with liquid nitrogen. But there's evidence other ways of removing them work at least as well.
Also, the other techniques appear to do another very important thing: They slow the development of cancer.
Hantash, of Palo Alto, Calif., and colleagues compared three of these techniques in 24 men. The patients had an average age of 73; all but three had previously had skin cancers removed. Five similar patients served as an untreated comparison group.

New International Reader's Version (NIRV) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 LORD my God, I go to you for safety. Help me. Save me from all those who are chasing me. | 1 O LORD my God, I take refuge in you; save and deliver me from all who pursue me, |
2 If you don't, they will tear me apart as if they were lions. They will rip me to pieces so that no one can save me. | 2 or they will tear me like a lion and rip me to pieces with no one to rescue me. |
3 LORD my God, suppose I have done something wrong. Suppose I am guilty. | 3 O LORD my God, if I have done this and there is guilt on my hands-- |
4 I have done evil to my friend. Or I have robbed my enemy without any reason. | 4 if I have done evil to him who is at peace with me or without cause have robbed my foe-- |
5 If I have done any of those things, let my enemy chase me and catch me. Let him walk all over me. Let him bury me in the dust. "Selah" | 5 then let my enemy pursue and overtake me; let him trample my life to the ground and make me sleep in the dust. "Selah" |
6 Lord, rise up in your anger. Rise up against the great anger of my enemies. My God, wake up. Command that the right thing be done. | 6 Arise, O LORD, in your anger; rise up against the rage of my enemies. Awake, my God; decree justice. |
7 Let all the people of the earth gather around you. Rule over them from your throne in heaven. | 7 Let the assembled peoples gather around you. Rule over them from on high; |
8 Lord, judge all people. Lord, judge me. But remember that I have done what is right. Most High God, remember that I am honest. | 8 let the LORD judge the peoples. Judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, according to my integrity, O Most High. |
9 God, you always do what is right. You look deep down inside the hearts and minds of people. Bring to an end the terrible things sinful people do. Make godly people safe. | 9 O righteous God, who searches minds and hearts, bring to an end the violence of the wicked and make the righteous secure. |
10 The Most High God is like a shield that keeps me safe. He saves those whose hearts are honest. | 10 My shield is God Most High, who saves the upright in heart. |
11 God judges fairly. He shows his anger every day. | 11 God is a righteous judge, a God who expresses his wrath every day. |
12 If evil people don't change their ways, God will sharpen his sword. He will get his bow ready to use. | 12 If he does not relent, he will sharpen his sword; he will bend and string his bow. |
13 He has prepared his deadly weapons. He has made his flaming arrows ready. | 13 He has prepared his deadly weapons; he makes ready his flaming arrows. |
14 Anyone who is full of evil plans trouble and ends up telling lies. | 14 He who is pregnant with evil and conceives trouble gives birth to disillusionment. |
15 Anyone who digs a hole and shovels it out falls into the pit he has made. | 15 He who digs a hole and scoops it out falls into the pit he has made. |
16 The trouble he causes comes back on him. The terrible things he does come down on his own head. | 16 The trouble he causes recoils on himself; his violence comes down on his own head. |
17 I will give thanks to the LORD because he does what is right. I will sing praise to the LORD Most High. | 17 I will give thanks to the LORD because of his righteousness and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High. |

In "Spirit of Life," a Tapestry of Faith program
We covenant to affirm and promote a free and responsible search for truth and meaning.
The living tradition we share draws from... humanist teachings which counsel us to heed the guidance of reason and the results of science, and warn us against idolatries of the mind and spirit.
Grateful for the religious pluralism which enriches and ennobles our faith, we are inspired to deepen our understanding and expand our vision. — Principles of the Unitarian Universalist Association
Share Handout 2, Wings Unfurling — Hope, Dreams, and Potentials, with someone who is close to you. Ask them to share about how they'd like to see their wings unfurl, too.
Try journaling in a creative way. Explore the question "Where is the Spirit of Life beckoning me?" by alternating, as you write, between your dominant hand and your non-dominant hand.
Use clay, collage, enactment, or words to create the next chapter of your own life as if it were a parable, a myth, fairy tale, or wisdom story. What is the path you are on now? Is your journey a quest? What are you searching for? How will you know when the quest is complete? Or, is the journey ongoing?
Write your own obituary, epitaph, or eulogy. Write it as you would like it to be. Get in touch with what you value, what you still want to do, and what you want to make peace with.
Create an altar or centering table for the person you are and who you are becoming. You might use candles, flowers, photographs, or any objects that remind you of your dreams for yourself. Consider the placement of objects in relation to one another.

Revised Standard Version (RSV) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 Now when they had passed through Amphip'olis and Apollo'nia, they came to Thessaloni'ca, where there was a synagogue of the Jews. | 1 When they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a Jewish synagogue. |
2 And Paul went in, as was his custom, and for three weeks he argued with them from the scriptures, | 2 As his custom was, Paul went into the synagogue, and on three Sabbath days he reasoned with them from the Scriptures, |
3 explaining and proving that it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead, and saying, "This Jesus, whom I proclaim to you, is the Christ." | 3 explaining and proving that the Christ had to suffer and rise from the dead. "This Jesus I am proclaiming to you is the Christ, " he said. |
4 And some of them were persuaded, and joined Paul and Silas; as did a great many of the devout Greeks and not a few of the leading women. | 4 Some of the Jews were persuaded and joined Paul and Silas, as did a large number of God-fearing Greeks and not a few prominent women. |
5 But the Jews were jealous, and taking some wicked fellows of the rabble, they gathered a crowd, set the city in an uproar, and attacked the house of Jason, seeking to bring them out to the people. | 5 But the Jews were jealous; so they rounded up some bad characters from the marketplace, formed a mob and started a riot in the city. They rushed to Jason's house in search of Paul and Silas in order to bring them out to the crowd. |
6 And when they could not find them, they dragged Jason and some of the brethren before the city authorities, crying, "These men who have turned the world upside down have come here also, | 6 But when they did not find them, they dragged Jason and some other brothers before the city officials, shouting: "These men who have caused trouble all over the world have now come here, |
7 and Jason has received them; and they are all acting against the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus." | 7 and Jason has welcomed them into his house. They are all defying Caesar's decrees, saying that there is another king, one called Jesus." |
8 And the people and the city authorities were disturbed when they heard this. | 8 When they heard this, the crowd and the city officials were thrown into turmoil. |
9 And when they had taken security from Jason and the rest, they let them go. | 9 Then they made Jason and the others post bond and let them go. |
10 The brethren immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Beroe'a; and when they arrived they went into the Jewish synagogue. | 10 As soon as it was night, the brothers sent Paul and Silas away to Berea. On arriving there, they went to the Jewish synagogue. |
11 Now these Jews were more noble than those in Thessaloni'ca, for they received the word with all eagerness, examining the scriptures daily to see if these things were so. | 11 Now the Bereans were of more noble character than the Thessalonians, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true. |
12 Many of them therefore believed, with not a few Greek women of high standing as well as men. | 12 Many of the Jews believed, as did also a number of prominent Greek women and many Greek men. |
13 But when the Jews of Thessaloni'ca learned that the word of God was proclaimed by Paul at Beroe'a also, they came there too, stirring up and inciting the crowds. | 13 When the Jews in Thessalonica learned that Paul was preaching the word of God at Berea, they went there too, agitating the crowds and stirring them up. |
14 Then the brethren immediately sent Paul off on his way to the sea, but Silas and Timothy remained there. | 14 The brothers immediately sent Paul to the coast, but Silas and Timothy stayed at Berea. |
15 Those who conducted Paul brought him as far as Athens; and receiving a command for Silas and Timothy to come to him as soon as possible, they departed. | 15 The men who escorted Paul brought him to Athens and then left with instructions for Silas and Timothy to join him as soon as possible. |
16 Now while Paul was waiting for them at Athens, his spirit was provoked within him as he saw that the city was full of idols. | 16 While Paul was waiting for them in Athens, he was greatly distressed to see that the city was full of idols. |
17 So he argued in the synagogue with the Jews and the devout persons, and in the market place every day with those who chanced to be there. | 17 So he reasoned in the synagogue with the Jews and the God-fearing Greeks, as well as in the marketplace day by day with those who happened to be there. |
18 Some also of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers met him. And some said, "What would this babbler say?" Others said, "He seems to be a preacher of foreign divinities" --because he preached Jesus and the resurrection. | 18 A group of Epicurean and Stoic philosophers began to dispute with him. Some of them asked, "What is this babbler trying to say?" Others remarked, "He seems to be advocating foreign gods." They said this because Paul was preaching the good news about Jesus and the resurrection. |
19 And they took hold of him and brought him to the Are-op'agus, saying, "May we know what this new teaching is which you present? | 19 Then they took him and brought him to a meeting of the Areopagus, where they said to him, "May we know what this new teaching is that you are presenting? |
20 For you bring some strange things to our ears; we wish to know therefore what these things mean." | 20 You are bringing some strange ideas to our ears, and we want to know what they mean." |
21 Now all the Athenians and the foreigners who lived there spent their time in nothing except telling or hearing something new. | 21 (All the Athenians and the foreigners who lived there spent their time doing nothing but talking about and listening to the latest ideas.) |
22 So Paul, standing in the middle of the Are-op'agus, said: "Men of Athens, I perceive that in every way you are very religious. | 22 Paul then stood up in the meeting of the Areopagus and said: "Men of Athens! I see that in every way you are very religious. |
23 For as I passed along, and observed the objects of your worship, I found also an altar with this inscription, 'To an unknown god.' What therefore you worship as unknown, this I proclaim to you. | 23 For as I walked around and looked carefully at your objects of worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: to an unknown god. Now what you worship as something unknown I am going to proclaim to you. |
24 The God who made the world and everything in it, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not live in shrines made by man, | 24 "The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by hands. |
25 nor is he served by human hands, as though he needed anything, since he himself gives to all men life and breath and everything. | 25 And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything, because he himself gives all men life and breath and everything else. |
26 And he made from one every nation of men to live on all the face of the earth, having determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their habitation, | 26 From one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live. |
27 that they should seek God, in the hope that they might feel after him and find him. Yet he is not far from each one of us, | 27 God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us. |
28 for 'In him we live and move and have our being'; as even some of your poets have said, 'For we are indeed his offspring.' | 28 'For in him we live and move and have our being.' As some of your own poets have said, 'We are his offspring.' |
29 Being then God's offspring, we ought not to think that the Deity is like gold, or silver, or stone, a representation by the art and imagination of man. | 29 "Therefore since we are God's offspring, we should not think that the divine being is like gold or silver or stone--an image made by man's design and skill. |
30 The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all men everywhere to repent, | 30 In the past God overlooked such ignorance, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent. |
31 because he has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed, and of this he has given assurance to all men by raising him from the dead." | 31 For he has set a day when he will judge the world with justice by the man he has appointed. He has given proof of this to all men by raising him from the dead." |
32 Now when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked; but others said, "We will hear you again about this." | 32 When they heard about the resurrection of the dead, some of them sneered, but others said, "We want to hear you again on this subject." |
33 So Paul went out from among them. | 33 At that, Paul left the Council. |
34 But some men joined him and believed, among them Dionys'ius the Are-op'agite and a woman named Dam'aris and others with them. | 34 A few men became followers of Paul and believed. Among them was Dionysius, a member of the Areopagus, also a woman named Damaris, and a number of others. |

Patriots QB Tom Brady knocks Buffalo's hotels
BUFFALO, N.Y. — Evidently staying one night a year in a Buffalo hotel is one night too many for New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady.
During Wednesday's media session before Sunday's Super Bowl in Indianapolis, Brady knocked the quality of the hotels in the hometown of the Buffalo Bills, New England's AFC East rival. He said, "they're not the nicest places in the world."
The comment has ticked off some executives in the lodging business in western New York.
An official with the tourism promotion group Visit Buffalo Niagara defended hotels in the region, saying it's filled with "excellent" options to meet the needs of the most refined travelers.
The Patriots and Bills play each other twice during the regular season, once in Buffalo and once in Foxborough, Mass.
