They call it the Miami International Film Festival, and not just because it goes down in Miami. The fest's films are all designed to appeal to a Magic City audience, whether they're filmed locally, produced by or starring local talent, or addressing themes that are of particular interest to the three-oh-five.
As the 2012 edition approaches its conclusion on Sunday, we're taking a look at a handful of films that should resonate especially well in our hood. In closing-night selection Chinese Take-Away, we see a touchingly funny portrayal of clashing cultures that we know only too well. Underground Hip-Hop in China takes us into a nascent musical revolution on the other side of the globe, reminding rap fans of life before Pitbull. Set in St. Augustine, Born and Raised offers a close-to-home respite from Miami's urban mayhem. And what better parable for our city's glitzy fame-seekers than Hombre y Tierra, in which an Internet star is hunted in a remote jungle?
Films will screen daily through March 11. Tickets cost $12 for screenings and $14 for gala showings. For more film fest coverage, visit cultistmiami.com or miamifilmfestival.com.

Chinese Take-Away
With Hollywood endlessly recycling old ideas, it's easy to believe there's nothing new under the sun in the film world. At first, Chinese Take-Away seems to confirm that suspicion. It's the story of Roberto (Ricardo Darín), an ornery misanthrope with a tragic past. (Stereotype? Check.) Of course there's a woman, Mari (Muriel Santa Ana), who sees through his abrasive exterior to his true self. (Check.) But Roberto won't let Mari into his life. (Check.)
The arrival of Jun (Ignacio Huang), a Chinese man who speaks no Spanish, changes everything. What begins as a ride to Jun's uncle's home out of civic duty turns into a week-long residency, as Roberto begrudgingly lets Jun crash at his place, puts him to work at home and in his hardware store, and hesitantly brings him to social engagements that Roberto would rather not attend in the first place. Between Darín's weary frustration and Huang's pitch-perfect facial expressions, the plot's peppered with darkly comic moments.
Odd-couple stories like these traditionally end with an expected, heartwarming revelation on the part of the curmudgeon, and this film is no exception. But what's truly exceptional about Chinese Take-Away is the way director Sebastián Borensztein arranges all these cliches into a story that's genuinely touching — and one that, with its themes of cultural conflict and language barriers, should resonate deeply with Miami audiences. As the film ends, you know exactly what's coming — and you can't wait to see it take place. Ciara LaVelle
7 p.m. Saturday, March 10, at the Olympia Theater (174 E. Flagler St., Miami; 305-374-2444; gusmancenter.org). Tickets cost $25.
Underground Hip-Hop in China
The story of hip-hop is the same all over the world, though the details may differ. It begins as the music of the oppressed and disenfranchised, with aggressive rhythms and politicized lyrics that cleverly cut down the powers that be. Governments, corporations, and other iterations of "The Man" respond by shutting hip-hop down, which pushes it underground and unintentionally amplifies its effect. So instead, they try a new tactic: censorship, serving a castrated version of the pure stuff to the masses.
Through interviews with rappers, producers, and scholars, director Jimmy Wang tells the Chinese version of this tale. U.S. hip-hop fans will recognize the trajectory of the genre in the East far too well, as some rappers drop political commentary in favor of rhymes about blowjobs, money, and weed. There's even a singer nicknamed "the Chinese Justin Bieber."
But audiences will also recognize that in comparison to hip-hop in the U.S., Chinese rappers face far more intense pressure. Yin Tsang, the hip-hop group that ignited the sound in China, struggles to make its music financially successful without selling out, just like U.S. groups. But Yin Tsang's not just battling record labels; China's strictly controlling government makes lyrical political dissent illegal to distribute.
Wang's documentary takes us inside the world of underground hip-hop in China, through rappers' testimonials and scenes from performances, backstage parties, and recording sessions. At times, it feels like there's no way the progressive medium can survive in such a constricted culture. But Yin Tsang rapper Weber, a central character in the film, can force even the most jaded music snob to root for a Chinese hip-hop revolution with his infectious passion. If you're not a fan of hip-hop going into the film, Chinese or otherwise, you will be on your way out. Ciara LaVelle
7 p.m., Sunday, March 11, at O Cinema (90 NW 29th St., Miami; 305-571-9970; o-cinema.org). Tickets cost $12.
Born and Raised
The small, seaside Florida Panhandle setting in Born and Raised is like a basket of live crabs; whenever one gets close to spilling out over the rim, the others frantically pinch and pull him back inside to go on writhing around with the rest. Bubbs (Nick Loritsch) is a young dock worker who quietly longs to escape — but his clingy mother (Sandra Staggs), a victim of a string of abandonments (starting with her deadbeat dad), flips her lid anytime he brings it up. She's also unhappy about the time her son spends on the docks with her estranged fly-by-night father (Jackson Pyle), to whom she hasn't spoken in 20 years. Lucky for his overbearing mom, Bubbs soon shacks up with his best friend's sister, Corey (Miami native Dawntavia Bullard), and he seems willing to put his dreams of exploration on permanent hold. Or maybe not.

Rrp5p is the only protein so far known to be required for the processing of yeast pre-rRNA at both the early sites A0, A1 and A2 leading to 18S rRNA and at site A3, the first step specific for the pathway leading to 5.8S/25S rRNA. Previous in vivo mutational analysis of Rrp5p demonstrated that the first 8 of its 12 S1 RNA-binding motifs are involved in the formation of the 'short' form of 5.8S rRNA (5.8S(S)), which is the predominant species under normal conditions. We have constructed two strains in which the genomic RRP5 gene has been replaced by an rrp5 deletion mutant lacking either S1 motifs 3-5 (rrp5-Delta3) or 5-8 (rrp5-Delta4). The first mutant synthesizes almost exclusively 5.8S(L) rRNA, whereas the second one still produces a considerable amount of the 5.8S(S) species. Nevertheless, both mutations were found to block cleavage at site A3 completely. Instead, a novel processing event occurs at a site in a conserved stem-loop structure located between sites A2 and A3, which we have named A4. A synthetic lethality screen using the rrp5-Delta3 and rrp-Delta4 mutations identified the REX4 gene, which encodes a non-essential protein belonging to a class of related yeast proteins that includes several known 3'-->5' exonucleases. Inactivation of the REX4 gene in rrp5-Delta3 or rrp-Delta4 cells abolished cleavage at A4, restored cleavage at A3 and returned the 5.8S(S):5.8S(L) ratio to the wild-type value. The sl phenotype of the rrp5Delta/rex4(-) double mutants appears to be due to a severe disturbance in ribosomal subunit assembly, rather than pre-rRNA processing. The data provide direct evidence for a crucial role of the multiple S1 motifs of Rrp5p in ensuring the correct assembly and action of the processing complex responsible for cleavage at site A3. Furthermore, they clearly implicate Rex4p in both pre-rRNA processing and ribosome assembly, even though this protein is not essential for yeast.

From Kathleen Tessaro, author of the acclaimed international bestseller Elegance, comes a poignant, funny, and utterly remarkable story of real life, real love, and fantasy -- and the changes they put you through. Following a dream can lead to unexpected places. . . .
It is 1986, and eighteen-year-old aspiring actress Evie leaves Eden, Ohio, to study theater in London, England. Almost immediately she falls in with new female chums Imogen (born-again Laura Ashley poster child, frustrated virgin) and Robbie (gorgeous wild-child bohemian, far from virginal). The world is thrilling and new, and anything is possible . . . until love intervenes.
It is 2001, and Evie's a single mother teaching drama to night students. Robbie is dead, killed in a car accident. And Evie is doing her level best to forget the past, the lost opportunities, and the dreams that exploded . . . until an old friendship comes back to haunt her.
Born in Pittsburgh, Kathleen Tessaro emigrated to London where she worked as an actress in films, television, and theater, while training to be a drama teacher and voice coach. She is the author of the novels Elegance, Innocence, and The Flirt. Kathleen currently lives in Pennsylvania.

Though certainly not one of my best creations, this Legend of Zelda Link figure is one of my favorite Color Blanks that I worked on. I have been following the Legend of Zelda Nintendo game series since I was a kid and I'm always looking forward to the new games that keep coming out. I modeled this particular Color Blanks figure after the Link in the Wind Waker game that came out for Nintendo Game Cube.
Rose Art has a Color Blanks figure that has a sort of marshmallow head and I use that version as it seemed as a good fit for the model. On this particular one I use those googly eyes that you can purchase in bags so the eyes actually move if you tilt the figure in different directions.
The shield, sword, hair, hat and pretty much all other external pieces are made from polymer clay. Everything else was a mixture of acrylic paint, micron pens and Sharpies.
In the future I would like to do some other versions of Link like the one from the original Legend of Zelda game and maybe one from Twilight Princess as these Link characters look distinctly different through the series. There is also now a Skyward Sword figure to tackle!
Hi, I was looking into doing color blanks and adding clay to the mixture. I had an awesome idea and it was coming out great, but when I woke up the next morning it had cracked and broke apart. I unfortunately used crayola air dry clay and I guess thats not the desired mix. If you could please give me some pointers on what type of clay I should be using that would make my day.
Hey Travis, I use polymer clay. One of the most popular brands is sculpey. There is also super sculpey which is a bit more expensive but seems to be easier to do fine details. The trick here is that sculpey needs to be baked. Some items can be baked and glued on but if you are looking to modify the figure itself it is easiest to mold the sculpey right on. The hard part is not melting the figure.
Sculpey is supposed to be baked at 275 but I will bake at about 240 for longer than recommended to get my color blanks to hold up to the heat. You will need to experiment with this though because each oven is different.
The head and torso seem to old up to the heat best. I also take apart my figures before I sculpt and bake them.

Majic Wheels Corp Continues To Expands In Southwest Florida
FORT MYERS, FL, March 26, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Majic Wheels Corp. (OTCQB:MJWL), a Delaware corporation which operates a business line of roll off dumpster rentals, site work services, construction and foreclosure cleanup, junk removal and operates the Southwest Florida Franchise of College Hunks Haul Junk and College Hunks Moving, announced today its acquisition of a new leasehold facility for a 5 year period.

WCC gun range targets incite outrage among students, staff
By Adrain Hedden
As an African-American male, Harold Coleman has experienced bigotry throughout his life. So when the employee at Washtenaw Community College's Student Connection was shown a photograph of the school's gun range at the police academy, he was appalled when he saw that he had more in common with the photographic targets than he would ever hope.
All of the targets at the ends of the 10 lanes at the range when reporters from The Washtenaw Voice were granted access to it on two recent occasions about a week apart sported the same photograph of a young, African-American male pointing a revolver.
"That (above photo) is reprehensible," Coleman said. "That's basically teaching them to profile. I've been a victim of profiling and that can be very difficult. Things like that are just really stupid and very disturbing. I'd like to think that's not happening here."
After seeing the photo, some students, disturbed by the image, accused the range of bigotry.
"This makes them look racist," said Shayla Robinson, 16, of Ypsilanti, majoring in social science and law. "It does seem like a stereotype because they are all black."
Officials at the police academy, however, denied that race is a factor. Director Larry Jackson said multiple denominations are present in the targets used on his range. It is that very diversity, Jackson said, that is essential to law enforcement education.
"I've never thought of it that way. No one has ever directly asked for African-American targets," Jackson said. "There are several different types out there and you're trying to get people experience dealing with different situations and people."
The targets, specially developed and certified by the state of Michigan for law enforcement training feature the likenesses of multiple different genders and nationalities, according to Mark Baker, the firearms range master at WCC. Baker asserts that any similarity between targets from visit to visit holds no bearing or preference for the school or the law enforcement program.
"If you saw that twice, it was a coincidence," Baker said. "The targets are packaged with a variety and they've been trying to vary them more. It'd be absolutely ludicrous to think that any law enforcement agency would be targeting specific people."
The photographs of people, Baker believes, better help with target practice by bringing realism into the exercises.
"It's not symbolic," he said. "It's for bullet placement."
But school administrators were nonetheless disturbed by the picture. Damon Flowers, vice president of Facilities Management, has worked closely with the police academy to maintain the gun range's high safety standards, such as lead levels and noise reduction, but was surprised at what he saw being fired on upon the range.
"It's a little discomforting, personally, somewhat of a stereotype," Flowers said. "All the gun ranges I've seen had targets that were non-person. I had no idea they had these."
The school does not provide the photographs used in the range, Flowers said, adding that he was disturbed by the implications brought on by any actual images of real people being used for that purpose.
"Do they have to use a photograph at all?" Flowers said. "Why an African-American, young looking male? It looks like in law enforcement there is a perception that criminals will be an African-American male. I find it hard to rationalize the use of that photograph."
Vice President of Student Services Linda Blakey was also dismayed by the human element of the academy's targets. Blakey did not like the image the targets create, in her mind, of the school.
"I thought they just used silhouettes. I didn't know they had targets like these on campus," Blakey said. "This doesn't look good for us."
Blakey understands the importance of realism in law enforcement training, but asks for more diversity in the targets as they are presented for drills.
"You could argue that when they're in real-life, they might freeze at having to shoot at something that's looking back at them," Blakey said. "They should expand the diversity of the targets to include more ages, ethnicities and genders."
An expansion of that nature is essential in the eyes of Daniel and Michael Combs. The 16-year-old twin brothers agree that different targets should be used to avoid negative implications.
"Maybe they could have more different types of targets," Daniel said.
"This makes them seem ignorant," Michael said.
However, Eric Walls, a 30-year-old culinary arts student from Ypsilanti, doesn't see the problem. African-American himself, Walls sees accusations of racial tension resulting from the targets as overtly sensitive and dismissive of the purpose of the range itself.
"Sometimes you gotta lighten up, they're trying to put someone in a real situation," Walls said. "I don't find it that bad. After all, they're just practicing. It's not racial profiling if they've got black officers shooting at these targets."
Jackson agrees with the need for life-like targets in practice. He argues that the targets used by his program have been getting more and more progressive over the years to include a wider range of potential assailants.
"In the last 30 years they've really been adding more women," Jackson said. "What happens when people train on just a round bulls-eye target of some kind, is that they may be unprepared of real-life."
Various companies print and ship the certified TCQ targets, according to Baker, for different situations and decisions. Jackson named two companies that supply the targets for his range: Law Enforcement Targets Inc. (Minn.) and US Target Online.

Imperfectly Perfect
Dear NADS,
Hi, my name is Isabel and I am from Heineman Middle school! I was assigned a project to pick an organization to support. My first reaction was to pick down syndrome because I myself have a personal connection to it due to the fact, that my uncle has downs. I have always been exposed to down syndrome and I feel very strongly about the cause. It upsets me to see when people are made fun of for having downs or any other syndrome, for that matter. So my group, Imperfectly Perfect which includes my friends Madysen and Kayla, chose your organization. In this project we had to make an online poster describing what the organization is, facts, and a reason why we are supporting that particular cause. My teacher will then eventually choose a winner from our class and I would really like for my group and I to be moved to the finals against around 5 other groups from half of my grade, for the winner of the final will receive $1,000 to donate to the charity/ organization they chose to support. I would really like the money to go to your organization, but we must get the word out! This our link to our online poster:
If you could please help us get our online poster more views so that we are more likely to win that would be wonderful! Thank you for your time and have a wonderful rest of your day!

"Screen time" is a term used for activities done in front of a screen, such as watching TV, working on a computer, or playing video games. Screen time is sedentary activity, meaning you are being physically inactive while sitting down. Very little energy is used during screen time.
Most American children spend about 3 hours a day watching TV. Added together, all types of screen time can total 5 to 7 hours a day.
Too much screen time can:
Screen time increases your child's risk of obesity because:
Computers can help kids with their schoolwork. But surfing the internet, spending too much time on Facebook, or watching YouTube videos is considered unhealthy screen time.
Children under age 2 should have no screen time.
Limit screen time to 1 to 2 hours a day for children over age 2.
Despite what ads may say, videos that are aimed at very young children do not improve their development.
Cutting down to 2 hours a day can be hard for some children because TV may be such a large part of their daily routines. But you can help your children by telling them how sedentary activities affect their overall health. Talk to them about things they can do to be healthier.
To decrease screen time:

East Rock School Opening Delayed

Posted to: Schools, East Rock
Marc Gonzalez won't be able to walk across the street to his new school as planned in January.
Marc (pictured), who's 11, lives on Nash Street right across from the East Rock Community School. For the past two years, he has hopped on a bus to study in a Hamden swing space while the city demolished, then began to rebuild, his school.
He'll have to keep catching the bus for another five months—and possibly until next fall—as construction crews finish the work he's been watching for his window.
The school was originally set to open in September of 2012. Then it was delayed until January 2013 due in part to environmental remediation.
Now the $49 million school won't be ready in time for January 2013, according to Bob Lynn, the director of New Haven school construction for the Gilbane Building Company. Construction is set to be completed in March, Lynn said at last week's meeting of the Citywide School Building Committee. He said the city is looking to open the school during spring break, which is set for April 13 to 20.
However, given that New Haven Public Schools already missed three days for Superstorm Sandy, there's a chance that that break may dwindle due to snow days, Lynn said. If that happens, the school could move during summer break in July.
Lynn said the delay came to due a combination of factors, including a late delivery of glass from Washington State.
Parents eager to move their kids into their new school found out about the delay last month, according to PTO president Daisy Gonzalez, Marc's mom. The magnet school serves about 420 kids in grades K to 8.
"I was really upset" to find out about the delay, Gonzalez said. However, she found a bright side in the news: She's planning a grand opening for the school. "This will give us more time to plan."
Marc, who's in the 6th grade, attended the school across the street from his house until 4th grade, when he began commuting to the Hamden swing space. Instead of a 30-second walk, he takes a 30-minute bus ride to school. He said he was looking forward to ending his bus ride, because it's cold and not that fun.
"I was looking forward to going to the school in January," he said.
Marc has watched with interest ever since crews began to dismantle the 1970s concrete bunker across the street from his house. The old school looked a "giant concrete block" plopped into a residential area, Marc recalled. The school looked like "a big jail" facing rows of houses for prison guards.
Marc said new school fits in much better in the neighborhood. "Now it just looks like one big happy community with a happy school."
The new school, designed by Newman Architects, has a smaller footprint and more light. The K to 8 school plans to add a pre-K in the fall.
Gonzalez said likes the way it fits with the former Marlin Firearms factory across the street on Willow.
"It's beautiful," she said. "This is going to be really, really nice."

Will the street be safe to cross? It shows an astonishing level of myopia that we can spend tens of millions on our new school buildings, but can't spare pennies to make it possible to walk (or take a wheelchair) to them without being killed. Hopefully this school will be different from the last 40.

$49 million and 4 years and the school is going to be somewhere between 9 and 12 months late? I wonder how many extra $$ are involved and how many of those $$ will end up in the 2013 DeStefano campaign coffers…

"The new school, designed by Newman Architects, has a smaller footprint and more light."
Heh, that wouldn't take much, given that the previous school had NO WINDOWS AT ALL in any of the rooms that faced the street, and the windows that faced the ugly inner courtyard were made of some kind of unbreakable plastic that got discolored and scratched and smeared over the years. What a travesty that was. Brutalist architecture was almost as guilty as the whole "Model City" disaster in wrecking this town between 1955 and 1980.
Now do something about the Police headquarters on Union Avenue, please, and then the firehouse on Olive and Grant, and we'll finally begin to put this idiocy to rest.

Long Wharf's "Our Town" Will Look Like Our Town
by Allan Appel | Jun 25, 2014 1:55 pm
Commenting has been closed | E-mail the Author
Posted to: Arts & Culture, Theater
An Our Town not with a quaint, Caucasian, New Hampshsire-ish cast, but a multicultural one that truly represents our town—New Haven.
That's what Long Wharf Artistic Director Gordon Edelstein promised as he announced that the great 1938 play will be the centerpiece of the theater's 50th anniversary fall season.
Monday night more than 200 people—mostly representing the loyal season-subscriber and major donor base—gathered for the festive season-preview party.
In an engaging discussion about the nail-biting process of choosing plays for the 50th season, Edelstein (at right in top photo) said that many factors figure in on the "bumpy road" of selection, such as finances and actors' availability. Our Town, penned by Hamden native son Thornton Wilder, prevailed in part because "the play allows us to focus a community around it."
That community is New Haven.
"It's traditionally done with an all-white cast," Edelstein said. "Truth is, our town doesn't look like that anymore."
Edelstein declared the play "undeniably one of the greatest plays of the American canon" and right up there "with Shakespeare and the Greeks," He also reminded the audience that the play has often been put on in high-schoolish productions as a sentimental, quaint show.
To right the situation—and to return to what he feels are the roots of Wilder's work—Edelstein promised a "completely multicultural Our Town. An Our Town that looks like our town."
"I'm nervous as hell about it, in the face of such a masterwork. I'm endeavoring to cast only Long Wharf alums [in honor of the 50th season]. If it's our town, let it be our town."
He said he is also hoping to get some New Haven residents to play parts in the large cast.
In these leaner times—when large-cast shows are financially not very doable—Edelstein hailed the efforts of Long Wharf fundraisers. Donors make Our Town, a show with roles for 18 actors, feasible at Long Wharf.
Ting added that there will be a lot of community engagement around the show. He announced an extra week of performances devoted to bringing busloads of high-school students to see the play.
Edelstein spoke of the need to reach younger audiences as an almost religious obligation. Theaters have a duty to present the great plays to new generations.
"These plays are also our holy books," Edelstein said. "And half of the Long Wharf staff hasn't seen" Our Town.
He admitted that some people were surprised and even skeptical at the choice of the much-produced classic.
Edelstein's answer: "I guarantee you, you haven't seen an Our Town like this."
The season's other plays will include:
• Steve Martin's comedy Picasso at the Lapin Agile.
• Forever, a world premier solo show by Dael Orlandersmith, an actor and playwright frequently featured at Long Wharf.
• Bad Jews, by under-30-year-old playwright Joshua Harmon, a comedy about a family battle over the rights to a Holocaust survivor's necklace.
• brownsville song, an interacial family tale by Kimber Lee.
• And a funny American history play about a woman—Edelstein described her as a cross between Hillary Clinton and Nancy Reagan—who was practically president of the United States: Joe DiPietro's The Second Mrs. Wilson
Click here for a full run-down on the six plays Edelstein and Assistant Artistic Director Eric Ting have chosen.

The mistreatment of vulnerable customers is endemic

The mistreatment of vulnerable customers is endemic

Plans for a multibillion-pound raid on pensions tax relief to cut university tuition fees announced yesterday by Labour would leave hundreds of thousands of savers worse off and benefit only wealthy graduates, experts have warned. Pension savers are being urged to make full use of allowances up to £230,000 each before the general election in order to save almost £60,000 in potential extra tax. Critics claim that Ed Miliband's proposed £3,000 cut in university tuition fees to £6,000 would be of little help to graduates on lower salaries, such as teachers, who can expect to have much of their student debt written off under the current system. According to The Institute for Fiscal Studies, graduates on City wages are likely to be the biggest winners. Tom McPhail, of Hargreaves Lansdown, the advisers, says: "These measures aren't about targeting the super-
With this European ski season shaping up to be the deadliest in years thousands of British skiers and snowboarders are taking unneccesary risks by travelling to the slopes without any insurance. Almost a third do not have a policy in place and risk incurring vast bills should anything go wrong, research by the Association of British Travel Agents has found. Avalanches have already claimed 75 lives across the Alps this year, making it more important than ever for powder-hungry holidaymakers to be fully protected. A poor start to the season with unseasonably mild weather was followed by huge snowfalls, creating an exceptionally icy base with an unstable snowpack lying on top. This can be compounded with fesh snowfall as the season progresses as sub-zero temperatures at night are followed by mild days where the sun raises temperatures. Most incidents occur
Motorists are snapping up new cars at the fastest rate since before the recession, lured by cheap finance deals — though, in a shift from previous behaviour, many are preferring to rent rather than buy. Demand for the first batch of 15-plate cars, on sale from tomorrow, means that nearly half a million new motors are expected to be sold in March, always the busiest month for car sales. New car registrations reached a ten-year high of nearly 2.5 million last year, the most since 2004. This year is expected to see calendar-year sales rise to 2.6 million, which would be only the fourth year on record to see UK new car registrations exceed 2.5 million. The improved economic outlook is helping to fuel the boom. Geraldine Kilkelly, chief economist at the Finance and Leasing Association, says: "The low-interest-rate environment means less pressure in terms of mor

Preclinical evaluation of human embryonic stem cell-derived cardiovascular progenitors
Preclinical evaluation of human embryonic stem cell-derived cardiovascular progenitors
Funding Type:
New Faculty Physician Scientist
Grant Number:
Award Value:
Disease Focus:
Heart Disease
Stem Cell Use:
Embryonic Stem Cell
Public Abstract:
Because the regenerative capacity of adult heart is limited, any substantial cell loss as a result of a heart attack is mostly irreversible and may lead to progressive heart failure. Human pluripotent stem cells can be differentiated to heart cells, but their properties when transplanted into an injured heart remain unresolved. We propose to perform preclinical evaluation for transplantation of pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiac cells into the injured heart of an appropriate animal model. However, an important issue that has limited the progress to clinical use is their fate upon transplantation; that is whether they are capable of integrating into their new environment or they will function in isolation at their own pace. As an analogy, the performance of a symphony can go into chaos if one member plays in isolation from all surrounding cues. Therefore, it is important to determine if the transplanted cells can beat in harmony with the rest of the heart and if these cells will provide functional benefit to the injured heart. We plan to isolate cardiac cells derived from human pluripotent stem cells, transplant them into the model's injured heart, determine if they result in improvement of the heart function, and perform detailed electrophysiology studies to determine their integration into the host tissue. The success of the proposed project will set the platform for future clinical trails of stem cell therapy for heart disease.
Statement of Benefit to California:
Heart disease remains the leading cause of mortality and morbidity in the US with an estimated annual cost of over $300 billion. In California alone, more than 70,000 people die every year from cardiovascular diseases. Despite major advancement in treatments for patients with heart failure, which is mainly due to cellular loss upon myocardial injury, the mortality rate remains high. Human embryonic stem cells (hESC) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) could provide an attractive therapeutic option to treat patients with damaged heart. We propose to isolate heart cells from hESCs and transplant them in an injured animal model's heart and study their fate. In the process, we will develop reagents that can be highly valuable for future research and clinical studies. The reagents generated in these studies can be patented forming an intellectual property portfolio shared by the state and the institution where the research is carried out. Most importantly, the research that is proposed in this application could lead to future stem cell-based therapies that would restore heart function after a heart attack. We expect that California hospitals and health care entities will be first in line for trials and therapies. Thus, California will benefit economically and it will help advance novel medical care.

COLLEGE STATION -- It was "Turf and Landscape Field Day" in College Station today where hundreds of professionals and local leaders came together to learn about the latest research and methods to keep your grass greener while conserving our most important natural resource --- water.
2011 went on record as the worst drought in Texas history and while it's technically over, many of us are still trying to recover.
"A cost of over $8 billion in Ag and forestry alone," said Texas Department of Agriculture Commissioner, Todd Staples.
And without much help from mother nature, in terms of rainfall this year, keeping your grass alive now is harder than ever.
"It is a never ending battle" said State Representative, John Raney. "I'm not a real good person dealing with the yard so I'm looking for easy ways to water."
On Wednesday the Texas A&M Agrilife Research and Extension Service held a "Turf and Landscape Day" focusing on water management and conservation.
"How to best go about conserving water in the landscape, particularly in lawn situations," said turf management professor, Richard White.
A subject that's more important now than ever before.
Commissioner Staples said, "Our population has outpaced our water capacity in Texas and the droughts have really reinforced it."
More than 200 attended the event but if you missed out, head to texaswatersmart.com to learn how you can reduce your H2O usage while keeping your yard plush and green.

A breathtaking new epic fantasy series. Morgan Rice does it again! This magical sorcery saga reminds me of the best of J.K. Rowling, George R.R. Martin, Rick Riordan, Christopher Paolini and J.R.R. Tolkien. I couldnt put it down!
--Allegra Skye, Bestselling author of SAVED
A SKY OF SPELLS (BOOK #9 IN THE SORCERERS RING), is book #9 in the #1 Bestselling series THE SORCERER'S RING, which begins with the FREE book A QUEST OF HEROES (Book #1). In A SKY OF SPELLS, Thorgrin finally returns to himself and must confront his father once and for all. An epic battle occurs, as two titans face each other, and as Rafi uses his power to summon an army of undead. With the Destiny Sword destroyed, and the fate of the Ring in the balance, Argon and Alistair will need to summon their magical powers to help Gwendolyns brave warriors. Yet even with their help, all could be lost if it were not for the return of Mycoples, and her new companion, Ralibar.
Luanda struggles to prevail against her captor, Romulus, as the fate of the Shield hangs in the balance. Reece, meanwhile, struggles to lead his men back up the Canyon walls, with Seleses help. Their love deepens; but with the arrival of Reeces old love, his cousin, a tragic love triangle and misunderstandings develop.
When the Empire is finally ousted from the Ring, and Gwendolyn has her chance for personal vengeance against McCloud, there is great cause to celebrate. As the new Queen of the Ring, Gwen uses her powers to unite both MacGils and McClouds for the first time in history, and to begin the epic rebuilding of the land, of her army, and of the Legion. Kings Court slowly comes back to life once again, as they all begin to pick up the pieces. It is destined to become a more glorious city than even her father ever dreamed of, and in the process, justice finally finds Gareth.
Tirus must be brought to justice, too, and Gwen will have to decide what sort of leader she will be. There is a great conflict amongst Tirus sons, not all of whom see things the same way, and a struggle for power erupts once again, as Gwen decides if she will accept an invitation to the Upper Isles, thus making the MacGil clan whole once again. Erec is summoned to return to his people in the Southern Isles and see his dying father, and Alistair joins him, as they prepare for their wedding. Thorgrin and Gwendolyn may have wedding preparations in their future, too.
Thor becomes closer to his sister, and as all settles down inside the Ring, he finds himself summoned to embark on his greatest quest of all: to seek out his mysterious mother in a faraway land and to find out who he really is. With multiple wedding preparations in the air, with Spring returning, Kings Court rebuilding, festivals afoot, peace seems to settle back onto the Ring. But danger lurks in the most unforeseen corners, and all of these characters greatest tribulations might be yet to come.
With its sophisticated world-building and characterization, A SKY OF SPELLS is an epic tale of friends and lovers, of rivals and suitors, of knights and dragons, of intrigues and political machinations, of coming of age, of broken hearts, of deception, ambition and betrayal. It is a tale of honor and courage, of fate and destiny, of sorcery. It is a fantasy that brings us into a world we will never forget, and which will appeal to all ages and genders.
The first book in the series, A QUEST OF HEROES is available as a free download! Books #2--#9 in series are now also available! Book #10 in the series will also be published soon.
Grabbed my attention from the beginning and did not let go
.This story is an amazing adventure that is fast paced and action packed from the very beginning. There is not a dull moment to be found.

Angelina Jolie plays Maleficent, the evil queen who is determined to ruin Princess Aurora's life by putting a curse on her that can only be broken by true love's kiss. But this action packed, 3D flick could be our favorite Disney film yet!
Angelina Jolie as Maleficent, is the perfect villain in this remake of the classic 1959 film, Sleeping Beauty. The movie is like candy for your eyes because there's fairies, bright colors and even a fire breathing dragon! You will find your inner child all over again in this fairytale with a twist!
Maleficent — Five Reasons To See This Film
There are so many reasons why you should see this move during opening weekend but I'm going to narrow it down to five.
1. The costumes and makeup are absolutely stunning. Angelina's cheek bones alone are so mesmerizing that it has you captivated the entire time! Plus, the wardrobe on all the cast is jaw-dropping. I truly appreciated the attention to even the smallest details in the film.
2. It's in 3D! Not only does everything look better in 3D, the movie comes alive and literally jumps out at you when you put the glasses on.
3. Angelina's daughter, Vivienne Jolie-Pitt plays young Princess Aurora and she's a good little actress! She made her acting debut in the flick and nailed it! It's so cool so see Angelina interact with her daughter in the movie, it'll tug at your heartstrings.
4. Elle Fanning is a beautiful and graceful Princess Aurora. The actress perfectly plays the part of the stunning yet naive Princess who has no idea that she is the daughter of King Stefan [Sharlto Copley].
5. FAIRIES! The movie is filled with flickering pixie fairies in all different colors and we loved it! The best part is the hilarious interaction between the three fairy godmother's: Knotgrass [Imelda Staunton], Thistlewit [Juno Temple], and Flittle [Lesley Manville].
There are plenty of other reasons to go like intense fight scenes, and let's not forget about the famous kiss! But you'll never believe how they amped up and turned this into a modern fairytale!
I fell in love with this movie and I hope you do too! Maleficent hits theaters May 29, so hurry and get to the theater now!

The force, first described mathematically by Isaac Newton, whereby any two objects in the universe are attracted toward each other. Gravitation holds the moon in orbit around the Earth, the planets in orbit around the sun, and the sun in the Milky Way. It also accounts for the fall of objects released near the surface of the Earth. The modern theory of gravitation is the general theory of relativity.

Star Cineplex, the first multiplex cinema theatre of the country, arranged for a special Valentine's Day for a hundred married couples, with the premiere of animated Hollywood blockbuster "Frozen" in 3D. The Golden Globe-winning film was screened on yesterday afternoon, where the couples -- who were chosen through a campaign on Facebook -- enjoyed the films and took home gift hampers.
"Frozen", directed jointly by Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee, is a heart-melting story of two princess sisters, loosely based on Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale "The Snow Queen". Within 13 weeks of release, it has climbed to the sixth spot of the highest-grossing animation films of all time, and is being hailed by many as the Disney's best film since the studio's renaissance era, and has been nominated for two Oscars, along with winning a number of major accolades.

Appts always feel rushed.
I constantly recommend Dr Stubbs to all of the people in the online support group for my condition. Everyone agrees he is exceptional!
Dr. Stubbs made me feel as though I was the only patient at the office. He spent an unbelievable amount of time with me going over everything about my options. I am beyond confident that I am receiving the best care in the country for my hip!
They say he's the best I can't say he's not but Im worried real bad
Most down to Earth and genuinely caring doctor I have met.
Excellent experience with Dr Stubbs. He is very thoughtful .He is a great resource !!!
All positive
Dr. Stubbs is fantastic!!! I recommend him frequently to the fellow members of my hip disorders support group. He makes sure to include the patient in making the decision for surgery and makes certain to inform the patient of all pros and cons. He ensures the patient has a proper understanding of what to expect during and after the surgery. He is calm, compassionate, and an excellent surgeon!
Spent a lot of time with me & gave me all of my options w/o any pressure.
With an intense surgery like I had I always feel better after speaking with Dr. Stubbs.
Dr. Stubbs is an exceptional physician and surgeon. He is extremely knowledgeable and offers the patient the choice on how to proceed given the necessary information. He does not pressure the patient to have surgery, like at other facilities, and is open and welcoming to any suggestions or alternative treatment options. Yet, when surgery is necessary, he is extremely capable. He is a wonderful physician and I highly recommend him to anyone with orthopedic needs.
