Panoche Inn, return via Mt. Hamilton
Panoche Inn, return via Mt. Hamilton on all paved roads. (Optional Dirt Loop: New Idria/Clear Creek /Hwy 25)
This is a good ride to take in the spring and early summer when the meadows are still green. It can be a little sere and savannah-like in summer. The route is paved to the main lunch stop in Panoche and mostly paved all the way to the defunct mining town of New Idria.
Street bike riders may decide to ride out to New Idria and back, or skip that portion and make a loop east on the continuation of J1 (Little Panoche Road) to Interstate 5 and north to either 152 and return via Gilroy or further north to Del Puerto Canyon and return over Mt. Hamilton. It is about 32 miles north on I-5 to Del Puerto and 65 miles from the start of Del Puerto to San Jose via Mt. Hamilton.
Adventuresome riders can cross over the New Idria/Clear Creek Road as described below, and return via the Old Coalinga/Los Gatos Road and Hwy 25.
If you are on a street bike, you will definitely want to backtrack from New Idria to the J 1/Panoche Road just south of the Panoche Inn. If you are on a GS or DualSport bike, from New Idria there is a dirt road continuation route leading back to Hwy. 25 via the Clear Creek Road and Coalinga/Los Gatos Road. The Clear Creek road on the west side of New Idria is ALL DIRT and very difficult when wet. Watch out for 4WD trucks, 2-stroke dirt bikes, hunters, etc. There are campgrounds along the lower elevations on both sides of the mountain.
This is a beautiful ride, at its best in spring and early summer but spectacular in winter. It is best to call ahead to the Panoche Inn to be sure that they are open and prepared to serve you lunch. Beer and similar staples are always available. (Panoche Inn - 831-628-3538.) Be sure to gas up in Hollister before starting out, as there is no gas in Panoche or anywhere else on this route till you get out to I-5.
Route Details
Leave Mountain View at 9:00 am and take 85 to Almaden to Uvas/McKean Roads to 152 East to 101/25 to Hollister. Stop at Chevron station at south end of Hollister to gas up & regroup (approx. 60 miles, 1 hr. riding time). This is the only gas for the next leg of the ride so gas up without fail! Leave Hollister south on 25 around 10:15.
Take 25 south towards Paicines, and turn left on J 1. The road is just before the Paicines general store. This road is a beautiful country two-laner that follows the east side of the mountain chain that holds the Clear Creek Off-Road riding area. A major chunk of it fell in the creek a couple of years ago and it has all been repaved and smoothed out, making it one of the nicest "cornering exercises" roads in the area. Stop at the Panoche Inn and enjoy an early lunch on the patio at this unique spot. (831-628-3538) Call ahead if you are counting on eating there.
There are three alternate routes back from Panoche:
- Just turn around and ride back down J 1 and return to Hollister the same way you arrived. Return to the Peninsula via Uvas/McKean Road instead of 101 to avoid the traffic. This is the quickest way, gets you back home by early afternoon.
- Turn left just after the Panoche Inn on Little Panoche Road. It is about 20 miles to I-5 north, and about 24 miles north to 152/Pacheco Pass, and another 35 miles back to Gilroy. This is the next shortest way back. This route is all paved,mostly straight highway or freeway.
It is much more interesting to take I-5 further north (about 32 miles) to Del Puerto Canyon Road, which takes you over Mt. Hamilton and back to San Jose via Hwy 130 (San Antonio Valley Road/Mt. Hamilton Road). If you go back over Mt. Hamilton it will take you till late afternoon to get home. - (Dirtriders Only) Continue on the New Idria Road to New Idria (you can't stop in the village) and return the same way we came, or continue over the dirt road to the summit and back down the west side to Old Coalinga Road and Hwy 25. There is also a backroad route up to San Benito Peak, which cuts off to the left (map-marked S/B Peak/Mexican Lake Road) about a mile below the summit on the east side. This is a good dirt-road route for the "not-quite-ready-for trail-riding" folks. This route can take you home by late afternoon-early evening, depending on how lost you get in Clear Creek...
Ride Safely, watch out for each other and have fun! Kari
PS: Feel welcome to e-mail me if you have any questions about this ride.
PPS It is possible to arrange an outdoor barbeque lunch for your group at the Panoche Inn, but you have to call them a couple days beforehand to arrange it. (831-628-3538)

In this week's new movies, a film very loosely based on a Hasbro board game turns out to have firepower and a comedy based on a baby book is star-filled yet superfluous. Here's what the Post critics had to say:
"Battleship" (PG-13) "Battleship — Hasbro's venerable game of naval strategy in which players use a combination of guesswork and logic to deduce the location of their opponents' ships — isn't exactly known for its thrill-a-minute narrative complexity. So it's understandable if some moviegoers might approach the new action-adventure film inspired by it with the same trepidation they would feel about "Yahtzee: The Movie." Fear not. 'Battleship' is an invigorating blast of cinematic adrenaline." — Michael O'Sullivan
"What to Expect When You're Expecting" (PG-13) "Is director Kirk Jones's film a farce, populated by crazy caricatures? Or is it a crash course in every potential prenatal complication? How about a dramatic account of failed pregnancy attempts and first bonds? The movie turns out to be a little of everything yet succeeds only occasionally at anything." — Stephanie Merry
"This Is Not a Film" (Unrated) "'This Is Not a Film,' which [Jafar] Panahi made with fellow director Mojtaba Mirtahmasb, is indeed not a film — it's a cry from the heart of an artist compelled to create, tell stories and respond to hostile, confounding realities." — Ann Hornaday
"The Dictator" (R) "Even amid the hit-and-miss broadsides and laugh-free longueurs that comprise most of 'The Dictator,' Cohen's acute
hypocrisy-detector keeps on ticking, if barely." — Ann Hornaday
"Bernie" (PG-13) "Based on the real-life story of Carthage, Tex., funeral director Bernie Tiede, and his co-dependent friendship with a wealthy widow named Marjorie Nugent, 'Bernie' unfolds into many equally rich narrative strands: love story, southern Gothic slice-of-life and, finally tragedy and legal thriller, when Mrs. Nugent's body turns up one day in her own chest-style freezer." — Ann Hornaday
"Crooked Arrows" (PG-13) "The high-school sports drama 'Crooked Arrows' has two — but only two — original selling points: Its protagonists are Native Americans and the sport in question is lacrosse. That's something you don't see every day. Other than that, however, the film's moves are taken straight out of 'The Bad News Bears' playbook."
— Michael O'Sullivan
"Where Do We Go Now?" (PG-13) "'Lysistrata' goes to Lebanon in 'Where Do We Go Now?' — a satire in which pathos competes with light comedy and neither quite flourishes." — John DeFore

Lake Maggiore
Lake Maggiore
Concierge.com's insider take:
Despite its stately bearing, grand hotels, formal gardens, and fringe of mountains, Maggiore is not highly rated by the lake cognoscenti. To unlock the lake's charm, explore its picturesque and busy central parts and southern reaches by boat, using the extensive network of ferries for short visits before retiring to its calmer shores. One of the most popular attractions is Rocco Borromeo castle in Angera on the southeastern shore. Don't miss the tiny Santa Caterina del Sasso, a wonderful church that seems to grow out of the mountainside.

USD 489 board will take a look at building construction costs

By JUDY SHERARD
Hays USD 489 Board of Education members on Monday will get cost estimates of maintaining and improving current facilities or building new ones.
The board meets at 6:30 p.m. for a work session in the Hays Middle School library. Work sessions are open to the public.
Representatives from HTK architects, who concluded a facilities study last month, are scheduled to attend and give dollar amounts for their recommendations, said Richard Cain, deputy superintendent.
Options ranged from maintaining the current facilities to closing and repurposing schools. A revamping could mean closing Rockwell Administration Center, consolidating elementary schools and building new schools.
"To hide your head in the sand and keep fixing what we've got, is not cost effective," said board member Rich Kraemer.
Most scenarios would require a bond issue to complete.
At the September work session Charles R. Smith, HTK vice president, said bond issues can run for 10 to 20 years.
If the board decides to put a bond issue to a vote, the district would need to make a first notification about three months before the election, Smith said.
To have an issue on the April 2013 ballot, the notification would have to be made in January.
While school district patrons would have to approve any bond issue, "you need permission of the state board (of education) if you exceed 16 percent of your general fund for a bond issue," Cain said. "Anything up to that, you can just do with a vote, but you have to have the state's board permission to go higher."
Cain estimated that 16 percent of general fund would be about $34 million.
"Sixteen percent of our general fund, that isn't going to get us anything," Kraemer said.
The time required to upgrade or build new facilities would depend on how large the project is, and how many schools are involved, Smith said.
"Bond issues take a long time," he said. "You don't have to sell them all at the same time. (You can) sell bonds as you need them."
"Part of the process is that you don't have to bite it all off at once ... figure out what your immediate needs are," said Zach Snethen, HTK project manager. "It could be over two bond issues."
"This gets us to here ... and another 10 years from now, do another bond issue," Smith said. "Everybody's gotta know that's the game plan."
"The problem is, if you do that, you're not going to fix the old schools," said Greg Schwartz, board vice president.
The district just completed two building projects -- a metal classroom addition at Hays Middle School and finishing a weight room at Hays High School -- with plans to build eight more classrooms at HMS.
In February the board voted to build the classrooms to be paid for in part by a grant from the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
Built to FEMA specification, the classroom addition on the east side of the building would serve as a storm shelter.
Total estimated cost of the project is $2,779,464, with USD 489 paying $1,410,437.
The first phase of the grant is $105,179 for design and engineering.

Human Resource DevelopmentThe nutrition human resource capacity of a country is, in effect, a measure of the country's capacity and capability to effectively manage existing and emerging nutrition related problems. CFNI exists, in part, to assist countries through Technical Corporation to effectively manage public health nutrition-related issues. The institute's efforts at HRD are guided by three specific objectives of the Caribbean Cooperation in Health (CCH) II.

Black Eyed Peas join Mexico in protesting Arizona immigration law SB1070 [video]
Activists called on residents of Nogales, Sonora, not to cross the border into Nogales, Arizona, on Thursday and to gather for an afternoon protest instead, a local Sonora newspaper reported.
In Mexico City, demonstrators marched outside the US Embassy on Wednesday. When they learned of the US judge's decision to freeze the most controversial elements of the law, they broke into applause and shouts of "Si Se Pudo" (Yes We Could).
'Step in the right direction'
Wednesday's 11th-hour injunction blocked the most controversial elements of the law, including requirements that police check the immigration status of suspected illegal immigrants. The injunction also froze sections of the law making it a state crime for undocumented migrants to work or for foreign residents to fail to carry immigration documents. But provisions that prohibit employers from hiring illegal migrants, or from stopping a car to pick up day laborers, remain in the law.
Mexico, along with 11 other Latin American countries, in June had filed an amicus brief in favor of a US federal lawsuit that sought to strike down the Arizona immigration law. Mexico's Foreign Affairs Ministry on Wednesday called the injunction a "step in the right direction."
While many here celebrated the decision, those with family in Arizona or other states seeking to pass similar laws say the danger is far from over.
"I'm relieved for now, but hopefully they'll overturn the law for good," says Evelin Vazquez of Mexico City. The 20-year-old waitress says her uncles and aunts who live in Oklahoma face similar legislation, which will only gain steam if the injunction is dismissed.

She has been teaching in different Art Colleges in Switzerland and abroad and is currently head of the Foundation Course at the F+F Schule für Kunst und Mediendesign in Zurich. Her practice deals with the relations to the other, beyond the self. It starts from acknowledging different realities; parallel, conflicting, contradicting. The insistence on the subjective view of the world, confronting it in the encounter with others is crucial to her practice. It does so through actual collaborations with artists or professionals from other disciplines, but also addresses these topics in her individual work. Sabine Hagmann is involved in a series of local projects addressing cultural production, knowledge production, collaboration, networking and urban development. Edit Post

Yuksek - Away From The Sea
Wed 18th Mar, 2009 Music Reviews
inTalented French producer Yusek has released his debut album Away From the Sea, and its release comes after him being a fixture of the dance music scene for years with his singles and remixes featuring in many a killer DJ set. His reworkings of Ghostface Killah Charlie Brown, Van She Strangers and Chromeo Bonafied Lovin arguably surpassed the original material, while his original songs like Composer have been giving dance floors a workout across the globe.
Yuksek toured Australia with last year's Parklife and that live set was first opportunity many of us had to hear his new material that'd feature on Away From the Sea. First single Tonight was one such song. Yuksek played Tonight complete with live vocals, and I remember being blown away by this song that I'd never heard before. All I wanted to know was how I could get my dirty little hands all over it. I believe a great test of dance music is to see how crazy a crowd reacts to a song that they've never heard before, and the Parklife crowd truly went apeshit.
Opening up Away From the Sea is Break Ya, which is an updated version of the 2007 track Composer. The original version still sounds fresh and this new version ups the ante a little bit, it's not drastically different but original enough so long time fans shouldn't feel ripped off.
Away From the Sea features collaborations from a diverse range of artists. Chromeo co-wrote and co-produced So Down, which also features the vocal stylings of Dave 1. it's probably one of the best tracks Chromeo has been involved with, the mixture of cheesy vocals complimenting the French house beats without being lost in the funk that Chromeo's own productions tend to be. Amanda Blank from Spank Rock features on Extraball, a song that is one of the album's highlights. The music on the song is even good enough to allow the listener to ignore naff lyrics such as the chorus, which sounds like "I try to walk tall, even with the Extraball, it's purely physical, I think you're time is now." I could be wrong about those lyrics. I hope I'm wrong. Shit Disco performs on one of the lesser songs of the album, This is Not Today. The song sounds like a collaboration with Moby.
Overall Away From the Sea is a pretty strong pop record. The CD is varied, something that's at least partly due to the collaborators chosen. The change in pace of certain tracks allows Yuksek to show off his impressive range, which hasn't been apparent in his prior singles and remixes. Even though the album's mood does change considerably throughout, it still feels like an album, like a piece of work that fits smoothly together. Away From the Sea is an impressive debut from Yuksek, which hopefully will see him return to our shores in the near future to perform to a crowd who this time will be prepared.
Check out the tracklisting…
1. Break Ya
2. Tonight
3. A Certain Life
4. Extraball
5. Take A Ride
6. I Could Never Be A Dancer
7. So Far Away From The Sea
8. Little Dirty Trip (Vicarious Bliss remix)
9. This Is Not Today
10. I Like To Play
11. So Down
12. Freak O Rocker
13. Eat My Bear/Tonight
So what exactly was so impressive about Tonight? See for yourself…

An F–1 student is defined at INA section 101(a)(15)(F), 8 USC section 1101(a)(15)(F) as an alien having a residence in a foreign country which he/she has no intention of abandoning, who is a bona fide student qualified to pursue a full course of study and who seeks to enter the United States temporily and solely for the purpose of pursuing such a course of study at an INS accredited college, university, seminary, conservatory, academic high school, elementary school, or other academic institution or in a language training program in the United States.
On Campus Employment
This employment authorization is incident to F–1 status, and requires no INS approval. An F–1 student who is otherwise maintaining status, may work on the school's premises up to 20 hours per week while school is in session and full–time during breaks and the student's annual vacation. The 20–hour per week limitation while school is in session applies to all employment engaged in concurrently at any given time. On–campus employment must also not displace a U.S. worker (though no proof of this is required). Although the regulations require no specific employment authorization from INS or from the DSO, is required some form of written notification of employment eligibility from the DSO, since the student's eligibility to work (e.g., that the student is enrolled) must be verified by school or other authorized on campus entity that will employ the student.
Off–Campus Employment Based on Severe Economic Hardship
Regulations permit F–1 student employment due to unforeseen economic hardship. Students may apply for this form of work permission if: they are in good academic standing and are carrying a full course of study; they can show unforeseen severe economic hardship; employment opportunities on campus or under the pilot program are not available or sufficient; and acceptance of employment will not interfere with the student's continuing in a full course of study.
INS has given the following as examples of severe economic hardship due to unforeseen circumstances beyond the student's control: loss of financial aid or on–campus employment without fault on the part of the student; substantial fluctuations in the values of currency or exchange rates; inordinate increases in tuition or living costs; unexpected changes in the financial condition of the source of support; or medical bills; decisions will be made on a case by case decisions by the DSO.
Students and DSOs must make a reasonable effort to locate employment both on campus before resorting to employment due to severe hardship. As with other forms of student employment, students must have been in status for nine months (schools with an eight–month academic year satisfy this condition) to be eligible for hardship work permission.
To apply, a student must submit a complete Form I–538 to the DSO at the school the student is authorized to attend. The DSO then certifies on Form–538 that on–campus employment opportunities are unavailable or insufficient. (The current edition has no provision for this, so the DSO must write on the fact of the I–538 that the DSO has endorses it for severe economic hardship reasons.) Armed with the certified I–538, the student submits the following to the INS district office having jurisdiction over the student's residence: Form I–20 ID (Student) Copy; Form I–765; the filing fee for the I–765; supporting evidence to establish the unforeseen nature of the economic hardship. If the INS approves the request, it will issue a Form I–688B employment authorization document (EAD). The student may begin employment only upon receipt of the EAD. EADs are granted for up to one year periods. Denials may not be appealed. In addition, where INS denies an application for off–campus employment based upon severe economic hardship, INS may also conclude that since the student has requested employment authorization, it follows that he or she is unable to pay his or her tuition, is no longer capable of attending school and, hence, can no longer maintain his or her F–1 status. Under such circumstances, INS may deny the request for employment authorization and notify the student that he or she has violated the terms and condition of his/her entry and must depart from the U.S. Under these circumstances, practitioners should be very conservative and think twice before permitting any foreign student to request off–campus employment based on severe economic hardship.
Curricular Practical Training (CPT)
Curricular practical Training (CPT) is defined as employment which is an integral or important part of the F–1's curriculum including alternate work/study, internship, cooperative education, or any other type or required internship or practicum which is offered by sponsoring employers through cooperative agreements with the school. No INS approval is required.
An undergraduate student must have completed nine months of study before being eligible to accept CPT. A graduate student may begin CPT immediately, so long as the practical training is required by the degree program; otherwise, the graduate student is subject to the nine–month rule.
Under a rule generally applicable to F–1 practical training employment, a student who falls out of status and therefore must apply for reinstatement to lawful student status, but who had been pursuing a full course of study in lawful F–1 status prior to falling out of status, is not required to wait for the passage of a new nine–month period before engaging in CPT.
Any employment required to complete degree requirements qualifies for CPT whether or not it is for–credit course. Employment not required but which is important to the program of study may qualify. The student must receive academic credit for the employment, the "course" including the employment must be listed in the school's course handbook with a description which indicates the course is designed for hands–on–experience, and an assigned faculty member must oversee the course.
Optional Practical Training Before and After Completion of Studies
The final type of employer authorization was redefined by the INS in July, 1992, in an attempt to consolidate two separate categories of practical training, pre–completion and post–completion of studies. Whereas in the past students could avail themselves of up to a total of two years of pre–completion and post–completion full–time practical training is permitted. Part–time practical training is deducted at one–half the full–time rate.
Student must have been enrolled for nine consecutive months. The requirement could have been meet while the F–1 was studying full–time for all or a portion of the nine months while in another lawful status which allows full–time study (including, but not limited to F–2, J–2, H–4, L–2, or dependent E status).
Optional practical training (OPT) must be related to the student's major area of study and is available in four instances: while school is in session (limited to part–time only); during the student's annual vacation and at other times that the school is not in session; after completion of all course requirements for the degree (if the student is in a bachelor's, master's, or doctoral degree program); and after completion of the course of study.
The student must apply to the DSO for an endorsement on Form I–538 recommmending OPT. An offer of employment is not a prerequisite to applying for OPT. In a processing change effective June 3, 1995, an F–1 student seeking an EAD for practical training must submit the application to a Regional Service Center for processing. Student seeking OPT after completion of studies may apply as early as 90 days prior to completion or as late as 60 days after completion.
The F–1 may not receive more than 12 months of OPT unless thereafter the F–1 to begin a new course of study, or accumulates a one year absence from the U.S. before returning to resume the same course of study or changes to another nonimmigrant status for one year and then changes back to F–1 status.
Students should recognize that once OPT is granted, it cannot be recaptured if the student should decide not to use it or should the student be unable to find a training opportunity.
During the authorized period of training, reentry to the U.S. is permitted if the F–1 has a valid visa, the I–20 ID (Student) Copy, and the EAD issued for practical training, provided that the student has not violated his or her visa status.
A little notice in the F–1 student regulations suspends an F–1's employment authorization for any type of employment where the USDOL certifies to INS that there is a strike or there labor dispute in progress at the place of employment in the occupation in which the F–1 student is working.

Avid Announces Receipt Of Anticipated NASDAQ Letter
Avid Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:AVID), announced today that, due to the previously disclosed delay in the filing of its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the "Form 10-K"), the Company has, as expected, received on March 19, 2013 a notification letter from staff of the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Department (the "Staff"). The notification states that the Company is no longer in compliance with NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5250(c)(1), which requires timely filing of periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The NASDAQ letter was issued in accordance with standard NASDAQ procedure, which provides that failure to timely file the Company's Form 10-K could serve as a basis for the delisting of the Company's stock from the NASDAQ Global Select Market. The Company intends to submit to the Staff a plan as to how it plans to regain compliance with NASDAQ's continued listing requirements. The NASDAQ notice specifies that this plan has to be submitted by May 20, 2013. If the Staff accepts the Company's plan, the Company expects to have up to 180 calendar days from the initial due date for the Form 10-K, or until September 16, 2013, to regain compliance. If the Staff does not accept Avid's plan, Avid will have the opportunity to appeal that decision to a NASDAQ Hearings Panel. The NASDAQ notice has no immediate effect on the listing of Avid's common stock on the NASDAQ Global Select Market.
On March 19, 2013, the Company filed a Form 12b-25 with the SEC stating that it was unable to file the Form 10-K with the SEC on or before March 18, 2013, the prescribed due date, because it is continuing to evaluate the accounting treatment related to bug fixes, upgrades and enhancements in certain of the Company's customer arrangements (collectively, "Software Updates"). The primary focus of the Company's evaluation to date has been to determine whether certain Software Updates previously thought to be only bug fixes met the definition of post-contract customer support under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The Company is working diligently to complete the review and continues to focus its efforts on completing the Form 10-K filing as soon as possible.

Eleven grants have been awarded to Auburn University faculty through a university research initiative in support of interdisciplinary cancer research efforts.
The Auburn University Research Initiative in Cancer (AURIC), based at Auburn's College of Veterinary Medicine, has announced funding of 11 grants to nine investigators through its Seed Grant program. Each grant is for one year and up to $20,000.
The list of awardees includes faculty from Auburn's Harrison School of Pharmacy, College of Human Science, Samuel Ginn College of Engineering and College of Veterinary Medicine.
AURIC was created to improve both human and animal health, foster an environment of excellence in cancer research, promote research that enhances competitiveness to advance the understanding of the biology of cancer, and foster the translation of novel technologies from the laboratory to the clinic.
AURIC embodies the "One Medicine" concept which links human, animal and environmental health, and where discoveries in one species advance health in all species. "AURIC is human medicine, animal medicine, research and diagnostics where faculty, students, and staff are working together to solve the complex puzzle of cancer," said Dr. Bruce Smith, director of AURIC.
"This grant program is one of the mechanisms that AURIC is using to enhance cancer research at Auburn University and represents an investment of almost $220,000. In order to leverage this funding into additional extramural funding, each grant proposal was required to have an external funding plan as part of the proposal."
The proposals underwent peer review and only those that were judged to have scientific merit and a potential for subsequent external funding were funded. The following grants were awarded:
- Non-Invasive Imaging of Nanomedicines for Detection and Treatment of Cancer, Dr. Robert Arnold, associate professor of Pharmacal Sciences, Harrison School of Pharmacy.
- Regulation of miRNAs Targeting Tumor Suppressor and Oncogenes and the Cancer Phenotype in Canine Breast Cancer Models, Dr. R. Curtis Bird, professor of Pathobiology, College of Veterinary Medicine
- Recombinant DNA‐Modified Canine Breast Cancer Cell Lines as Immunomodulatory Agents in Autologous Dendritic Cell/Breast Cancer Hybrid‐Cell Fusion Vaccines, Dr. R. Curtis Bird, professor of Pathobiology, College of Veterinary Medicine
- Integral X-ray Target/Collimator for Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy, Dr. William Brawner, Ware Distinguished Professor of Clinical Sciences, College of Veterinary Medicine
- Orthotopic Models of Human Colon Cancer, Dr. Michael Greene, assistant professor, Nutrition and Food Science, College of Human Sciences
- Investigating the Role of Fibrinogen in the Cancer-related Angiogenic Process Through a Novel Tissue-engineered Breast Cancer Model, Dr. Elizabeth Lipke, assistant professor, Chemical Engineering, Samuel Ginn College of Engineering
- Suppressive effects of omega-3 Stearidonic fatty acid (SDA) on human prostate cancer cell viability, Dr. Mahmoud Mansour, associate professor, Anatomy, Physiology and Pharmacology, College of Veterinary Medicine
- Advanced Multispectral Imaging Upgrade for Auburn Laboratory for Imaging Animal Systems (Project ALIAS), Dr. Peter Panizzi, assistant professor, Pharmacal Sciences, Harrison School of Pharmacy
- Development of a pan-tumor specific conditionally replicating canine adenoviral vector (CRAd), Dr. Bruce Smith, Professor, Scott-Ritchey Research Center, College of Veterinary Medicine
- Evaluation of the Utility of Purine Nucleoside Phosphorylase for Canine Cancer Therapy, Dr. Bruce Smith, Scott-Ritchey Research Center, College of Veterinary Medicine
- Pharmacist as Provider of Human Papillomavirus Vaccination Service, Dr. Salisa Westrick, Associate Professor, Pharmacy Care Systems, Harrison School of Pharmacy
Founded in 2012, the Alabama Legislature, through the sponsorship of Alabama House Speaker Mike Hubbard of Auburn, was instrumental in establishing AURIC. The Alabama legislature has appropriated more than $2 million to support cancer research by Auburn University faculty in a wide range of cancer-related areas. "The goal is to leverage our initial funding into increased federal and private support," Smith said.
In 2013, more than 27,000 new cases of cancer are estimated to be diagnosed and more than 10,000 people are estimated to die of cancer in Alabama, according to the American Cancer Society's Cancer Fact and Figures, 2013.
"In addition to being ill with cancer or seeing relatives endure pain, many Alabamians have also watched a beloved pet suffer from this disease," said Smith. "Animals and humans share many of the same cancers and what we learn in treating a tumor in a dog can teach us more about treating the same tumor in a person."

Dolphins Sign Richie Incognito
Categories: Sports
The Nebraska grad comes with a bit of baggage and a reputation for being one of the dirtiest players in the league. Sports Illustrated named him the seventh dirtiest in a poll of NFL players, and the Sporting News gave him top honors in a similar poll. He racked up a string of NFL fines, which led to the Rams' releasing him.
Of course, the Dolphins have some experience with controversial players, having just parted ways with Joey Porter, who bested Incognito in the the SI poll.

Scott Reid Lanark—Frontenac—Lennox and Addington, ON
Mr. Speaker, last spring, we became aware of the situation of Naser Al-Raas, a Canadian living abroad, who was detained in Bahrain for participating in a political demonstration. Since learning of his case, the minister of state responsible for consular affairs and her team have been working hard to support Mr. Al-Raas and his family, as well as urging Bahrain to drop all charges against him.
I would ask the Minister of Foreign Affairs to update the House on Mr. Al-Raas' situation.

John Baird Minister of Foreign Affairs
Mr. Speaker, I am very pleased to confirm today that Mr. Al-Raas was found innocent of the charges against him and is free to leave Bahrain. The minister of state and consular officials worked very hard to assist Mr. Al-Raas and to press the government of Bahrain on his behalf.
Through our embassy, we are now encouraging him to leave the country and return to Canada. If he is rearrested for demonstrating in Bahrain, our options to assist him will be limited.
We want to thank the Bahraini government for responding to our concerns and I want to acknowledge the great leadership of the minister of state for consular affairs for her good work.
Freedom of the Press
Oral Questions

Pierre Dionne Labelle Rivière-du-Nord, QC
Mr. Speaker, the confidentiality of journalistic sources has allowed us to uncover many scandals, including the sponsorship scandal. Yet Tony Accurso's lawyers want to force the journalist from the program Enquête to reveal the identity of his source, who helped bring to light major tax fraud by Louisbourg and Simard-Beaudry.
Is the government prepared to act in the public's interest, to legislate to protect journalistic sources, and to ensure that freedom of the press remains one of Canada's fundamental values?

Jean-François Fortin Haute-Gaspésie—La Mitis—Matane—Matapédia, QC
Mr. Speaker, Bill C-19 has not been enacted yet and the Conservatives are celebrating their victory in an offensive manner. To the loved ones of the massacre victims, it is as though the Conservatives were dancing on their graves. What is more, the government refuses to say exactly when the data in the registry will be destroyed. It seems to just be waiting for royal assent before calling for the immediate destruction of the data, even though Quebec has said it is going to take legal action to keep the information.
Can the Minister of Public Safety assure us that he will wait for Quebec to pursue its legal options before destroying the data in the registry, or does he simply intend to press the button on the shredder?

Vic Toews Minister of Public Safety
Mr. Speaker, last night's vote marks a leap forward toward fulfilling our promise to scrap the wasteful and ineffective long gun registry. As part of that commitment of getting rid of the registry, the data will also be destroyed, and that will be done as soon as legally possible.

Hélène Laverdière Laurier—Sainte-Marie, QC
Mr. Speaker, the government across the way came here with promises to change the way things are done in Ottawa. It promised the public, election after election, that it would change things, that there would be more accountability, more democracy and more transparency. Instead, it has organized a blatant attack on centuries-old parliamentary traditions.
The closure motions that muzzle the elected members of this House are meant to be an exceptional procedure used only in extreme circumstances. Now, under this government, closure has become nothing more than a legislative step like any other. It is a complete disgrace. The government House leader is probably on the verge of trying to blame the opposition for the government's methods. Maybe he will blame us for wanting to speak for the many ordinary citizens who are asking for nothing more than for their voices to be heard through the representatives they have elected. It is absurd, it is disappointing, but even more, it is a betrayal of the democratic promise of this country. My democracy is suffering.
My questions for the Leader of the Government in the House of Commons are the following:
Does the Leader of the Government in the House of Commons realize that the abuse of closure represents a radical shift from other traditions in this House and British traditions throughout the world?
Does the Leader of the Government in the House of Commons believe that the majority has the right to act without opposition, without debate and by excluding points of view that differ from its own?

Oral Questions
3:05 p.m.
Peter Van Loan Leader of the Government in the House of Commons
Mr. Speaker, perhaps I did not hear it right. I thought this was a question about the House agenda. In any event, I will answer a couple of the questions.
First, with regard to the management of the House business, I will renew once again my invitation to the NDP to give us the number of speakers and the length of time they wish to speak on any of the bills before this House. They have yet to ever provide me an answer on that. I have asked in the past here and elsewhere and I will continue to ask.
I appreciate that the Liberal Party has been somewhat forthcoming in that regard. If we see the same from the NDP, we will be able to actually come to co-operative arrangements. However, barring that, it is clear that the NDP agenda is simply to run up the score and compel the government to utilize the resources available in the Standing Orders in order to ensure that we actually do come to decisions and take votes in this House.
Today we will continue with the opposition day. Tomorrow we will be having a debate to take note of the Standing Orders before, as I understand, the Procedure and House Affairs Committee takes on a more extensive and detailed study of proposed changes to the Standing Orders. Following the constituency week we will begin on Monday, February 27, with debate on Bill C-7, Senate Reform Act.
On Monday afternoon, we will continue debate on Bill C-24, the Canada-Panama economic growth and prosperity act. Tuesday, February 28, will be the fourth allotted day, which I understand is to go to the Liberal Party.
On Wednesday, we will continue debate on the Canada-Panama Free Trade Act. On Thursday morning, we will continue debate on Bill C-23, the Canada-Jordan Free Trade Act.
On Thursday afternoon, we will begin debate on Bill C-28, the financial literacy leader act.
As the House can see, this will be a jobs and growth week. Jobs and growth remain our government's top priorities.
As we have seen with the North American Free Trade Agreement, free trade creates jobs and economic growth for Canadian families and businesses, and this is true of the two free trade bills that we have before the House. Like the Canada-Jordan free trade act, which, I would point out, in the previous Parliament went to committee after only a few hours of debate, we would hope that we could get the same agreement from the other parties to do so here. I invite them to do that.
I can also say, from my own personal experience, that the Canada-Panama free trade agreement has been around for a long time. I recall two and a half years ago being in Panama with the Prime Minister as negotiations concluded on this agreement. I remember, as Minister of International Trade, introducing in the House on September 23, 2010, for the first time, the bill to implement the free trade agreement. It is about time that it passes into law to benefit Canadians, exporters and workers.
Bill C-28 would create the position of financial literacy leader to help promote financial literacy among Canadians. This is something for which I think all parties have expressed support. I am sure we should be able to come to an agreement on how to proceed. I proposed a motion to the House that laid out a reasonable work plan for Bill C-28 but, sadly, that motion was not supported. I encourage the opposition House leader to get together with us again to try to work on a reasonable work plan.
I do look forward to seeing some progress as we continue the hard-working, orderly and productive session of Parliament we are in. Rather than trying to run up the score and compel time allocation to be used, I would encourage the official opposition House leader to work with all parties in this place to make progress on the bills before us.
On that note and in the spirit of co-operation and working with my colleagues across the way, I have one further addition regarding tomorrow's debate. I thank my colleagues for this suggestion, which I believe, Mr. Speaker, you will find unanimous consent for. I move:
That, notwithstanding any Standing Order or usual practice of the House, the motion "That this House take note of the Standing Orders and procedure of the House and its Committees", standing on the Order Paper, be amended by adding the following:
"; that the Standing Committee on Procedure and House Affairs be instructed to study the Standing Orders and procedures of the House and its Committees, including the proceedings on the debate pursuant to Standing Order 51; and that the Committee report its findings to the House no later than May 18, 2012"; and
that the motion, as amended, shall not be subject to any further amendment; and when debate has concluded, or at the expiry of time provided for Government Orders on the day designated for the debate, as the case may be, the motion, as amended, shall be deemed adopted.

Status of Women in Parliament—Speaker's Ruling
Oral Questions
3:10 p.m.
The Speaker Andrew Scheer
I am now prepared to rule on the question of privilege raised on February 8, 2012, by the hon. member for Ahuntsic regarding members bringing their infant children into the Chamber.
I thank the member for having raised this matter, as well as the Leader of the Government in the House of Commons, the chief opposition whip and the member for Saanich—Gulf Islands for their interventions.
This question of privilege arose from events that occurred on February 7, 2012, when the hon. member for Verchères—Les Patriotes brought her infant son into the Chamber immediately prior to the taking of a recorded division. At that time, several other members began taking photographs of mother and son, creating a disturbance in the process.
The hon. member for Ahuntsic explained that it had been her impression, when she had a newborn that members could not bring their babies into the Chamber during votes. She therefore requested that the Chair clarify whether there were any House rules or practices on the matter.
I will begin by saying that it will come as no surprise to the House that I do not see this as a matter of privilege. As the member for Ahuntsic herself has pointed out, the matter at hand really has to do with a need to clarify existing practices, and she has requested that I also review what steps can or should be taken to assist members with infants or young children as they juggle the challenges and obligations associated with being a parent who is also a member of the House of Commons.
The events of Tuesday, touching as they do on very personal matters for the members concerned, are always difficult to adjudicate. As a member with four children under the age of seven, I must confess that I am particularly sympathetic to the challenges faced by all elected officials who strive to find a balance between the demands of their work and the needs of their families.
While the events which unfolded on February 7 may seem to suggest that some of our rules and practices are rooted in traditions that no longer mesh seamlessly with modern realities, the truth is quite different. In fact, the House—and the Speakership on its behalf—has a long history of adapting its practices to meet the needs of the day. The Chair has been afforded considerable latitude to reconcile apparent contradictions between our rules and practices and contemporary values.
This is exactly what happened over the years in relation to the kind of situation the House faced last Tuesday. As some members have pointed out, there have been cases in the past where members have brought very young babies into the chamber, mainly for votes. In their wisdom, my predecessors in the chair have handled these situations by turning a blind eye and, given that the presence of the babies did not create disturbances, allowing House business to proceed uninterrupted.
It is important to recall that in the case at hand several members were flouting the rules by taking photographs in the chamber, and it was this disturbance to which the Chair's attention was drawn. Therefore, let me take this opportunity to suggest to members that it would be of great assistance if member's advised the Chair privately, in advance where they can, of a particular difficulty they are facing. I believe this would help us to avoid the kinds of disturbances that were witnessed last Tuesday, which in turn led to the events which have given rise to this ruling.
When considering what kind of guidelines should be followed on an ongoing basis, it struck me that there are few times when members might actually be unable to make alternative arrangements. It is really only during unexpected votes that members could face difficulties. Fortunately, most recorded divisions are scheduled far enough in advance that members should be able to plan accordingly.
However, the Chair appreciates that plans sometimes fail. When that happens, members may find themselves in a difficult position. In such cases, provided there is no other type of disruption or disturbance, the Speaker's attention will likely not be drawn to the situation and the work of the House can proceed as usual.
It would also be helpful to the Chair, and I think to the whole House, even after some incident has occurred involving the Chair, if members approached me directly to discuss any concerns they may have.
I should remind members that, more broadly, the House as an institution has a long history of improving facilities to assist members as working parents. Not all members realize that it is now almost 30 years ago that under the leadership of former Speaker Jeanne Sauvé the parliamentary childcare centre, The Children on the Hill, was established, providing members and staff with young children access to workplace daycare. In addition, some time ago, the House installed change tables in a number of washroom facilities in Centre Block and elsewhere. On this point, I have asked the Clerk to assess whether the number of change tables is sufficient to meet the needs of members with infants and to verify that they are appropriately located for their use.
At the same time, the Chair is advised that the Standing Committee on Procedure and House Affairs is embarking on a thorough review of the Standing Orders. Given the composition of the current House, as the members who intervened on this matter have suggested, it may well be timely for the committee, as part of the study, to review existing practices in this regard. The Chair would welcome the collective wisdom and guidance of the standing committee in this admittedly nebulous area.
In the meantime, the Chair will continue to be governed by the approach taken in the past by previous Speakers, always mindful of my obligation to preserve order and decorum so that the House may conduct its business without disruption, knowing that I can count o the co-operation of all members in this regard.
I thank all hon. members for their attention.

The Insidious Popsicle Threat to Islamic Virtue
Gene Lalor | October 6, 2012
 Adherents to the Muslim faith, a faith to which our president has sworn he does not adhere, believe in some odd things as contrasted with what Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus, and members of just about every other religion on the planet believe.Â
Muslims also seem to think evil is lurking everywhere except, of course, when devout Islamists murder infidels, a central precept endorsed and encouraged in the Holy Koran because it's a wonderful thing to slay non-Muslims in the name of Allah and jihad.Â
In addition, it's perfectly acceptable to issue death warrants for apostates, to brutally rape journalists like Lara Logan and Natsha Smith, to conduct a virtual rape epidemic in Oslo, to firebomb Charlie Hebdo because they don't like the publication, and to commit various and multiple other atrocities.Â
 But, back to popsicles.Â
To certain Muslims, popsicles are a creation of the devil since they look like penises and popsicles should therefore be banned from all Islamic nations. I'm not exactly sure why they should be banned unless Muslims think sex-starved, young Muslim girls will use ice-cold popsicles to sate their unbridled lust before they are forcibly wedded to some oil-rich doddering sheikh to satisfy his unbridled lust for young Muslim girls.Â
At least advocacy for modesty appears to have been the motivation of two bearded Muslim men in Cairo who assaulted four elementary schoolgirls because they were eating popsicles, knocked the icy treats from the girls' hands, screamed at them, scared the hell out of them to the point of tears, and ordered them to be "modest.â€Â (http://tinyurl.com/97o82g3)
You see, sexual modesty is highly valued in the watchful eyes of the Holy Prophet Mohammad who invented Islam before he married Aisha, his eight year old bride although he didn't consummate the marriage until she was ripe nine.
The immodest Egyptian girls were rescued by other men who pushed and kicked the attackers and sent them on their holy way to save holy Islam.
The recent incident in Cairo "highlights the growing influence Salafists, or Islamic puritans, are attempting to have on the streets. Many women have reported incidents of conservatives in Egypt attempting to force their will on them across the country," attacking them for such horrific sins as not covering themselves head to toe and for listening to vile Western music.
 The "incident" serves to illustrate the twisted nature of Muslims who can practice gross evils but who can become incensed over innocent popsicles.Â
Islam is America's primary enemy today, an enemy embraced by Barack Hussein Obama, an enemy to whom he obsequiously bows, an enemy dedicated to establishing a worldwide caliphate, an enemy with whom we have been engaged in a terrorist war for decades, a war our leader refuses to admit even exists.
I guess we can thank Allah Almighty that Obama isn't a Muslim! Just imagine the damage he could cause then!

" Brand: Whole Earth / Type: Peanut Butter "
* Prices may differ from that shown
=== The product ===
This is a peanut butter with a difference. It is made using peanuts that have not been salted or treated and still have their skins on them. This contains no added sugar and is suitable for vegetarians & vegans. The palm oil in this product is ethically sourced and the glass jar is recyclable. Whole Earth appear to be a company who really care about the environment.
=== How to use it ===
This is perfect for spreading on hot toast, enjoying in a sandwich, eating with chocolate biscuits or even just spooning straight from the jar. I have also used this to make peanut butter cookies which were successful but you really could taste the lack of sweetness compared to using a basic or value peanut butter that is loaded with sugar.
=== The taste ===
This peanut butter certainly is different from most. The peanut butter looks different in appearance and I can notice the dark flecks which come from the peanut skins. The texture of this peanut butter is deliciously smooth, it has a very strong nutty taste and I really can tell that the skins have been left on these peanuts. There is a fairly raw taste to this spread which is unlike the sugary goodness that comes from other peanut butter spreads but it's a taste that I quite enjoy. The texture is smooth and even a light spread feels quite substantial and you still get that cloying kind of goodness that comes from other peanut butters. The addition of the palm oil means that there is a smooth silky kind of taste to this peanut butter that makes it ridiculously easy to enjoy straight from the jar.
=== Ingredients===
Roasted peanuts (97%), Palm oil, Sea salt
=== Nutritional Information ===
Per 100g:
607 Calories
24.5g Protein
Carbohydrates 9.9g
Sugars 3.7g
Fat 50.8g
Saturates 8.6g
Fibre 6.2g
Salt 1.0g
=== Where to buy it and how much? ===
This is available in most Sainsburys stores with a 454g jar costing around £2.92 at present. There is also a crunchy variety available for £2.59. This is also sold in Asda with a 340g jar costing £2.17 which works at ever so slightly cheaper per 100g but for a couple of pence Sainsburys is more convenient for me.
=== My opinion ===
While this is more expensive than other peanut butters on the market the proof really is in the eating. I like knowing that this doesn't contain added sugar and that the palm oil is from a sustainable source. The taste of this is fantastic, it is different to the likes of Sunpat and this is clear from the first taste. The jar has a strong nutty scent as soon as it's open and you can't really smell that sweetness, or taste it. I thoroughly enjoy this on toast in particular and on cream crackers as well. I have used this in cooking a couple of times now and been very pleased with most of the results although my cookies were lacking a little much needed sweetness.
I love knowing that this product is organic and that it's much more ethical than a standard peanut butter. I find that I am left feeling fuller for longer when using this and I often have two pieces of granary toast for breakfast with a small spread of this. I find that I don't need as much of this spread to get the full flavour and to really enjoy my breakfast. This is definitely a high quality product and it's fair to say that it has changed my opinion on peanut butter. I must prefer this product to one that tastes ridiculously sweet and sugary. I feel now like I can really enjoy my toast and cereal for breakfast and not worry about having so much sugar in my diet.
I first tried this after it was suggested to me by a friend who attends the gym regularly and I'm really pleased that I've found this product. It IS more expensive but the jar is recyclable and the ingredients are organic. I like to try and do what I can for the environment these days and to look after our waistlines so I really don't mind paying a little extra for a quality peanut butter. My husband has never really been a fan of peanut butter but even he has been tempted in to nicking the odd piece of toast from my plate these days which is always a positive sign!
Whole Earth smooth peanut butter with no added sugar is quite different from any other peanut butter I've ever tasted, and to me that's a good thing as I'm not really a fan of eating peanut butter as is normally, I find it too sweet and very cloying. This is also organic which again suits me well as I do prefer to buy organic when I can.
Who is Whole Earth?
Whole Earth is the company who make this product, it was one of the very first companies pioneering organic food, and was begun in the 1960's by two brothers. This particular product was one of the very first that they produced along with real fruit spreads (also with no added sugar), and now they make quite a wide range of products from cereals to baked beans, coffee and ketchup all organic and high quality.
Like most peanut butters this comes in a glass jar with a paper label and a screw top lid. The label gives the details of brand and product including some nutritional information. It also explains that this is the smooth version, and contains no added sugar.
Price and Buying
Unfortunately one of the biggest drawbacks with this product is it's price and the fact that it's not easy to find on the high street. When I buy this, I get it from a whole food shop called 'daily bread', but it's not local so I have to either go out of my way to go there, or try and combine it with other things in the same direction. Apparently some Holland & Barrett stores sell this and if you can get it there it's a little cheaper (so my friend says), but mine doesn't sell this variety. I pay £2.25 for a 350g jar. They do also do a 2.5kg pack for £14.12, but there's no way I'd get through that amount before it went off I think so I stick with the small jars.
Nutritional Info
As this is the area where this product claims it differs from many other peanut butters available, I thought it might be useful to see the details here although this is not something I would normally include in a review.
The ingredients are 96% roasted peanuts, palm oil and sea salt, and per 100g it contains 595kcals, 24.6g of protein, 9.9g of carbs (of which 3.7g sugars), 50.8g fat (of which 9.1 saturates), 7.1g of fibre, and 0.4g of sodium.
If you compare this to the peanut butter you have in your cupboard you might expect there to be a substantial difference, but in fact there are only small differences to bigger brands such as Sunpat. Do the comparison against a no-name or value type brand and you do see a difference as these tend to contain less peanuts and added sugar meaning that they're often higher in sugars, fats, and sometimes sodium (salt), and lower in protein.
Taste & Texture
I suppose this is really the important bit, as it's no good having a healthy product if it doesn't taste good. To me, this is far superior to any other peanut butter I've tried as it's nothing like as sweet. It tastes almost exactly like peanuts do - very nutty and quite savoury, and being smooth I can spread it very thinly too which I prefer because I can enjoy the flavour this way without experiencing that cloying mouth stuck together feeling I always get with other peanut butters.
I don't actually like other peanut butters, and until I tried this one I'd have said I didn't like it full stop, however this I do like - in moderation. My husband doesn't actually like this any more than any other, in fact he says it's a bit thicker than some and doesn't go well with sweet things like jam, so he prefers to stick with his normal (cheaper) non organic, with added sugar crunchy stuff.
One place where I think this product does make a real difference is in making Satay sauce. Satay shouldn't be sweet, it should be peanutty and delicious and if I make it with this I can achieve a really good dish that tastes properly how it should. In baking however, I don't think it does notice whether you've used this or a cheaper product that contains sugar as most baking involves adding sweetness in one form or another anyway.
One thing I have noticed with this is because I tend to keep a jar for quite a while and use it fairly sparingly, when I do return to the jar after a gap, it does seem to separate a bit more than most other peanut butters so if you've got a dip in the butter, then you do tend to get a bit of an oil pool forming there. Having said this, a quick mix with a small spoon and the stuff looks and tastes as it should again.
Overall Thoughts
I shall continue to buy this for my own use and for making satay with, partly because of its organic nature, but partly because I like the taste. I shall also continue to buy alternatives for my husband who prefers them to this, so overall in this household we have mixed opinions of this product. It is expensive, and not always so easy to get hold of as other brands, but perhaps being a tad healthier helps balance that out. I would say give it a try if you can afford to, and decide for yourself as the differences are subtle.

PDF Converter 188.8.131.52
PDF Converter--more properly GIRDAC PDF Converter--approaches the most common PDF task of converting to and from Windows and Microsoft Office file formats with a focused purpose and a bare-bones but efficient interface.
Ever since Adobe made the Portable Document Format (PDF) open in 2008, a bevy of third-party PDF apps have capitalized on the freely sourced code. PDF Converter--more properly GIRDAC PDF Converter--approaches the most common PDF task of converting to and from Windows and Microsoft Office file formats with a focused purpose and a bare-bones but efficient interface. The software installs and uninstalls cleanly and runs with little fuss, but performance was found lacking in certain areas.
The app works adequately converting common Windows and Microsoft Office formatted files to and from PDFs, but niggling complaints continued to repeatedly pop up during my evaluation.
Converting PowerPoint to PDF with a multiple-slide presentation continually resulted in a tall, sideways PDF with slides that needed to be rotated clockwise each time in order to be read. Even worse, unable to find an option to save the rotated PDF in PDF Converter, I resorted to Adobe Reader to rotate and save, then tried to confirm the saved rotation by opening in PDF Converter, but the app still showed the slides vertically, although they displayed correctly open reopening in Adobe Reader.
Likewise, converting multiple PDF files simultaneously did not work for me at all. I received a pop-up window saying conversion was complete, but the instantaneous messaging and lack of new files indicate otherwise. While I'm complaining, it's annoying that the program creates a new directory at the root computer (C drive) level and that the default directory for each converting action (PDF to Word, PDF to Excel, etc.) must be edited separately and default to the sample picture directory and the root GIRDAC folder. It's also odd that in the PDF Properties, the highest PDF version listed is 1.4 (Acrobat 5.x), considering that PDF updated to 1.5 (Acrobat 6.x) in 2003 and has been on 1.7 since 2006.
Those (significant) complaints aside, the program certainly does what it says on the tin: it will convert PDF files quickly into Word or Excel files, pull out text or images in various formats, and create new PDFs from standard Office docs in a few clicks. The help section is comprehensive, the interface logical and uncluttered, and the program is gratefully free of browser add-ons, advertising, or other hidden gimmicks. Having said all that, aside from its speedy performance and clean layout, there's not much to distinguish this PDF tool from the rest of the PDF converters.
Editor's Note: This review was written using the trial version of PDF Converter 184.108.40.206. Along with the listed trial restrictions, we also found that a green watermark footer appears on every "created" PDF.
