ABSTRACT: Inflammation is a pathological feature of the pancreatic islet in type 1 and 2 diabetes, contributing to islet endocrine cell failure and the onset of hyperglycaemia in both diseases. Indeed, numerous immune targets have recently been found to be altered in type 2 diabetes, but few have yet to be translated to the clinic. Taylor-Fishwick and colleagues aimed to change this by performing proof-of-concept studies investigating the efficacy of small molecule inhibitors of 12-lipoxygenase in rodent and human beta cells exposed to proinflammatory cytokines. The results of these studies, published in this issue of Diabetologia (DOI: 10.1007/s00125-014-3452-0 ), build on a wealth of preclinical data that have implicated 12-lipoxygenase in rodent models of type 1 and 2 diabetes. While there remain some unanswered mechanistic questions regarding how cytokines regulate 12-lipoxygenase activation and the downstream consequences of activation, it is hoped that future studies with newly identified selective inhibitors may overcome the in vitro limitations of this study and allow for the eventual clinical translation of these highly interesting findings.Diabetologia 12/2014; 58(3). · 6.88 Impact Factor - Nature Medicine 11/2014; · 28.05 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: Pathological activation of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is associated with the metabolic syndrome, and new-onset of type 2 diabetes can be delayed by RAS inhibition. In animal models of type 2 diabetes, inhibition of the RAS improves insulin secretion. However, the direct effects of angiotensin II on islet function and underlying mechanisms independent of changes in blood pressure remain unclear. Here we show that exposure of human and mouse islets to angiotensin II induces IL-1-dependent expression of IL-6 and MCP-1, β-cell apoptosis, and impairs mitochondrial function and insulin secretion. In vivo, high fat fed mice treated with angiotensin II and the vasodilator hydralazine to prevent hypertension, showed defective glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and deteriorated glucose tolerance. Application of an anti-IL-1β antibody reduced the deleterious effects of angiotensin II on islet inflammation, restored insulin secretion and improved glycaemia. We conclude that angiotensin II leads to islet dysfunction via induction of inflammation and independent of vasoconstriction. Our findings reveal a novel role for the renin-angiotensin system and an additional rationale for the treatment of type 2 diabetes patients with an IL-1β antagonist.Diabetes 10/2014; · 7.90 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Objective We have previously shown the existence of a muscle-pancreas intercommunication axis in which CX3CL1 (fractalkine), a CX3C chemokine produced by skeletal muscle cells, could be implicated. It has recently been shown that the fractalkine system modulates murine β-cell function. However, the impact of CX3CL1 on human islet cells especially regarding a protective role against cytokine-induced apoptosis remains to be investigated. Methods Gene expression was determined using RNA sequencing in human islets, sorted β - and non β -cells. Glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) and glucagon secretion from human islets was measured following 24 h exposure to 1-50 ng/ml CX3CL1. GSIS and specific protein phosphorylation were measured in rat sorted β-cells exposed to CX3CL1 for 48 h alone or in the presence of TNFα (20ng/ml). Rat and human β-cell apoptosis (TUNEL) and rat β-cell proliferation (BrdU incorporation) were assessed after 24 h treatment with increasing concentrations of CX3CL1. Results Both CX3CL1 and its receptor CX3CR1 are expressed in human islets. However, CX3CL1 is more expressed in non- β cells than in β-cells while its receptor is more expressed in β-cells. CX3CL1 decreased human (but not rat) β-cell apoptosis. CX3CL1 inhibited human islet glucagon secretion stimulated by low glucose but did not impact human islet and rat sorted β-cell GSIS. However, CX3CL1 completely prevented the adverse effect of TNFα on GSIS and on molecular mechanisms involved in insulin granule trafficking by restoring the phosphorylation (Akt, AS160, paxillin) and expression (IRS2, ICAM-1, Sorcin, PCSK1) of key proteins involved in these processes. Conclusions We demonstrate for the first time that human islets express and secrete CX3CL1 and CX3CL1 impacts them by decreasing glucagon secretion without affecting insulin secretion. Moreover, CX3CL1 decreases basal apoptosis of human β-cells. We further demonstrate that CX3CL1 protects β-cells from the adverse effects of TNFα on their function by restoring the expression and phosphorylation of key proteins of the insulin secretion pathway.Molecular Metabolism. 10/2014; - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The role of inflammation in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes and associated complications is now well established. Several conditions that are driven by inflammatory processes are also associated with diabetes, including rheumatoid arthritis, gout, psoriasis and Crohn's disease, and various anti-inflammatory drugs have been approved or are in late stages of development for the treatment of these conditions. This Review discusses the rationale for the use of some of these anti-inflammatory treatments in patients with diabetes and what we could expect from their use. Future immunomodulatory treatments may not target a specific disease, but could instead act on a dysfunctional pathway that causes several conditions associated with the metabolic syndrome.dressNature Reviews Drug Discovery 05/2014; · 37.23 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Contracting muscle releases interleukin-6 (IL-6) enabling the metabolic switch from carbohydrate to fat utilization. Similarly, metabolism is switched during transition from fed to fasting state. Herein, we examined a putative role for IL-6 in the metabolic adaptation to normal fasting. In lean C57BL/6J mice, 6 hours of food withdrawal increased gene transcription levels of IL-6 in skeletal muscle but not in white adipose tissue. Concomitantly, circulating IL-6 and free fatty acid (FFA) levels were significantly increased, whereas respiratory quotient (RQ) was reduced in 6-hour fasted mice. In white adipose tissue, phosphorylation of hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) was increased upon fasting, indicating increased lipolysis. Intriguingly, fasting-induced increase in circulating IL-6 levels and parallel rise in FFA concentration were absent in obese and glucose intolerant mice. A causative role for IL-6 in the physiological adaptation to fasting was further supported by the fact that fasting-induced increase in circulating FFA levels was significantly blunted in lean IL-6 knockout (KO) and lean C57BL/6J mice treated with neutralizing IL-6 antibody. Consistently, phosphorylation of HSL was significantly reduced in adipose tissue of IL-6 depleted mice. Hence, our findings suggest a novel role for IL-6 in energy supply during early fasting.AJP Regulatory Integrative and Comparative Physiology 04/2014; · 3.28 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Despite tremendous research efforts, type 1 diabetes is one of the few remaining autoimmune diseases without any approved immunological treatment. This observation compels us to reconsider the role of autoimmunity in the pathogenesis of this disease. In this commentary, we will review solely human data in an attempt to appreciate, in an unbiased manner, the importance and relevance of the immunological alterations in patients with type 1 diabetes. The aim of this paper is to generate reflection on this topic, rather than a controversy.Diabetologia 01/2014; 57(4). · 6.88 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Islets of patients with type 2 diabetes display the typical features of an inflammatory process characterized by the presence of cytokines, chemokines, immune cell infiltration, impaired function and tissue destruction with fibrotic areas. Functional studies have shown that targeting inflammation may improve insulin secretion and sensitivity. In particular clinical proof of concept studies using modulators of the interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β)—nuclear factor‐κB (NF‐κB) pathway demonstrated the role of the innate immune system in type 2 diabetes. This programme has now entered the phase 3 of clinical development. Other targets such as tumour necrosis factor α (TNFα) may be equally important but have been neglected based on poorly designed studies. In this article we discuss the mechanisms of islet inflammation in type 2 diabetes and review the opportunity of clinical translation.Diabetes Obesity and Metabolism 09/2013; 15. · 5.46 Impact Factor - Diabetes care 07/2013; 36(7):e90-e91. · 7.74 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: The role of the immune system is to restore functionality in response to stress. Increasing evidence shows that this function is not limited to insults by infection or injury and plays a role in response to overnutrition. Initially, this metabolic activation of the immune system is a physiological response, but it may become deleterious with time. Therefore, therapeutic interventions should aim at modulating the immune system rather than simply damping it. In this article, we describe the physiology and pathology of the immune system during obesity and diabetes with a focus on islet inflammation, the IL-1β pathway, and clinical translation.Cell metabolism 06/2013; 17(6):860-72. · 17.35 Impact Factor -

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Innate immunity contributes to the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases, such as type 1 diabetes, but until now no randomised, controlled trials of blockade of the key innate immune mediator interleukin-1 have been done. We aimed to assess whether canakinumab, a human monoclonal anti-interleukin-1 antibody, or anakinra, a human interleukin-1 receptor antagonist, improved β-cell function in recent-onset type 1 diabetes. METHODS: We did two randomised, placebo-controlled trials in two groups of patients with recent-onset type 1 diabetes and mixed-meal-tolerance-test-stimulated C peptide of at least 0·2 nM. Patients in the canakinumab trial were aged 6-45 years and those in the anakinra trial were aged 18-35 years. Patients in the canakinumab trial were enrolled at 12 sites in the USA and Canada and those in the anakinra trial were enrolled at 14 sites across Europe. Participants were randomly assigned by computer-generated blocked randomisation to subcutaneous injection of either 2 mg/kg (maximum 300 mg) canakinumab or placebo monthly for 12 months or 100 mg anakinra or placebo daily for 9 months. Participants and carers were masked to treatment assignment. The primary endpoint was baseline-adjusted 2-h area under curve C-peptide response to the mixed meal tolerance test at 12 months (canakinumab trial) and 9 months (anakinra trial). Analyses were by intention to treat. These studies are registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, numbers NCT00947427 and NCT00711503, and EudraCT number 2007-007146-34. FINDINGS: Patients were enrolled in the canakinumab trial between Nov 12, 2010, and April 11, 2011, and in the anakinra trial between Jan 26, 2009, and May 25, 2011. 69 patients were randomly assigned to canakinumab (n=47) or placebo (n=22) monthly for 12 months and 69 were randomly assigned to anakinra (n=35) or placebo (n=34) daily for 9 months. No interim analyses were done. 45 canakinumab-treated and 21 placebo-treated patients in the canakinumab trial and 25 anakinra-treated and 26 placebo-treated patients in the anakinra trial were included in the primary analyses. The difference in C peptide area under curve between the canakinumab and placebo groups at 12 months was 0·01 nmol/L (95% CI -0·11 to 0·14; p=0·86), and between the anakinra and the placebo groups at 9 months was 0·02 nmol/L (-0·09 to 0·15; p=0·71). The number and severity of adverse events did not differ between groups in the canakinumab trial. In the anakinra trial, patients in the anakinra group had significantly higher grades of adverse events than the placebo group (p=0·018), which was mainly because of a higher number of injection site reactions in the anakinra group. INTERPRETATION: Canakinumab and anakinra were safe but were not effective as single immunomodulatory drugs in recent-onset type 1 diabetes. Interleukin-1 blockade might be more effective in combination with treatments that target adaptive immunity in organ-specific autoimmune disorders.

ABSTRACT: Type 1 diabetes is caused by autoimmune-mediated β cell destruction leading to insulin deficiency. The histone deacetylase SIRT1 plays an essential role in modulating several age-related diseases. Here we describe a family carrying a mutation in the SIRT1 gene, in which all five affected members developed an autoimmune disorder: four developed type 1 diabetes, and one developed ulcerative colitis. Initially, a 26-year-old man was diagnosed with the typical features of type 1 diabetes, including lean body mass, autoantibodies, T cell reactivity to β cell antigens, and a rapid dependence on insulin. Direct and exome sequencing identified the presence of a T-to-C exchange in exon 1 of SIRT1, corresponding to a leucine-to-proline mutation at residue 107. Expression of SIRT1-L107P in insulin-producing cells resulted in overproduction of nitric oxide, cytokines, and chemokines. These observations identify a role for SIRT1 in human autoimmunity and unveil a monogenic form of type 1 diabetes.Cell metabolism 03/2013; 17(3):448-55. · 17.35 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: β-Cell lipotoxicity is thought to play an important role in the development of type 2 diabetes. However, no study has examined its role in type 1 diabetes, which could be clinically relevant for slow-onset type 1 diabetes. Reports of enhanced cytokine toxicity in fat-laden islets are consistent with the hypothesis that lipid and cytokine toxicity may be synergistic. Thus, β-cell lipotoxicity could be enhanced in models of autoimmune diabetes. To determine this, we examined the effects of prolonged free fatty acids elevation on β-cell secretory function in the prediabetic diabetes-prone BioBreeding (dp-BB) rat, its diabetes-resistant BioBreeding (dr-BB) control, and normal Wistar-Furth (WF) rats. Rats received a 48-h iv infusion of saline or Intralipid plus heparin (IH) (to elevate free fatty acid levels 2-fold) followed by hyperglycemic clamp or islet secretion studies ex vivo. IH significantly decreased β-cell function, assessed both by the disposition index (insulin secretion corrected for IH-induced insulin resistance) and in isolated islets, in dp-BB, but not in dr-BB or WF, rats, and the effect of IH was inhibited by the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine. Furthermore, IH significantly increased islet cytokine mRNA and plasma cytokine levels (monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 and IL-10) in dp-BB, but not in dr-BB or WF, rats. All dp-BB rats had mononuclear infiltration of islets, which was absent in dr-BB and WF rats. In conclusion, the presence of insulitis was permissive for IH-induced β-cell dysfunction in the BB rat, which suggests a link between β-cell lipotoxicity and islet inflammation.Endocrinology 11/2012; · 4.72 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Metabolic activation of the innate immune system governed by interleukin (IL)-1β contributes to β-cell failure in type 2 diabetes. Gevokizumab is a novel, human-engineered monoclonal anti-IL-1β antibody. We evaluated the safety and biological activity of gevokizumab in patients with type 2 diabetes. In a placebo-controlled, dose-escalation study, a total of 98 patients were randomly assigned to placebo (17 subjects) or gevokizumab (81 subjects) at increasing doses and dosing schedules. The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the safety profile of gevokizumab in type 2 diabetes. The secondary objectives were to assess pharmacokinetics for different dose levels, routes of administration, and regimens and to assess biological activity. The study drug was well tolerated with no serious adverse events. There was one hypoglycemic event whereupon concomitant insulin treatment had to be reduced. Clearance of gevokizumab was consistent with that for a human IgG(2), with a half-life of 22 days. In the combined intermediate-dose group (single doses of 0.03 and 0.1 mg/kg), the mean placebo-corrected decrease in glycated hemoglobin was 0.11, 0.44, and 0.85% after 1, 2 (P = 0.017), and 3 (P = 0.049) months, respectively, along with enhanced C-peptide secretion, increased insulin sensitivity, and a reduction in C-reactive protein and spontaneous and inducible cytokines. This novel IL-1β-neutralizing antibody improved glycemia, possibly via restored insulin production and action, and reduced inflammation in patients with type 2 diabetes. This therapeutic agent may be able to be used on a once-every-month or longer schedule.Diabetes care 06/2012; 35(8):1654-62. · 7.74 Impact Factor - Diabetes care 06/2012; 35(6):e41. · 7.74 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: A decrease in functional beta-cell mass is a key feature of type 2 diabetes. Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) analogues induce proliferation of rodent beta-cells. However, the proliferative capacity of human beta-cells and its modulation by GLP-1 analogues remain to be fully investigated. We therefore sought to quantify adult human beta-cell proliferation in vitro and whether this is affected by the GLP-1 analogue liraglutide.Human islets from 7 adult cadaveric organ donors were dispersed into single cells. Beta-cells were purified by FACS. Non-sorted cells and the beta-cell enriched ("beta-cells") population were plated on extracellular matrix from rat (804G) and human bladder carcinoma cells (HTB9) or bovine corneal endothelial ECM (BCEC). Cells were maintained in culture+/-liraglutide for 4 days in the presence of BrdU.Rare human beta-cell proliferation could be observed either in the purified beta-cell population (0.051±0.020%; 22 beta-cells proliferating out of 84'283 beta-cells counted) or in the non-sorted cell population (0.055±0.011%; 104 proliferating beta-cells out of 232'826 beta-cells counted), independently of the matrix or the culture conditions. Liraglutide increased human beta-cell proliferation on BCEC in the non-sorted cell population (0.082±0.034% proliferating beta-cells vs. 0.017±0.008% in control, p<0.05).These results indicate that adult human beta-cell proliferation can occur in vitro but remains an extremely rare event with these donors and particular culture conditions. Liraglutide increases beta-cell proliferation only in the non-sorted cell population and only on BCEC. However, it cannot be excluded that human beta-cells may proliferate to a greater extent in situ in response to natural stimuli.PLoS ONE 04/2012; 7(4):e35801. · 3.53 Impact Factor -

ABSTRACT: Metabolic diseases are associated with activation of the innate immune system in various tissues and characterised by elevated inflammatory factors and the presence of immune cells. Type 2 diabetes develops when islet beta-cells are deficient in producing sufficient insulin to overcome peripheral insulin resistance. Intra-islet IL-1β activity diminishes beta-cell function and survival and governs islet inflammation. Targeting the IL-1 system with the IL-1 receptor antagonist IL1Ra improved insulin secretion, glycemia and reduced systemic inflammation in a proof of concept study with patients with type 2 diabetes. Currently, long lasting and specific IL-1β blocking antibodies are evaluated in clinical trials and this may lead to a novel cytokine-based treatment for type 2 diabetes. © 2012 The Authors.

ABSTRACT: ADP-ribosyltransferase Diphtheria toxin-like 1 [ARTD1; formerly called poly-ADP-ribose polymerase 1 (PARP1)] is a chromatin-associated enzyme involved in regulating metabolic homeostasis. The liver is at the core of glucose and lipid metabolism and is significantly affected by obesity and the metabolic syndrome. Here, we show that when fed a high-fat diet (HFD), mice lacking ARTD1 developed exacerbated hepatic steatosis. ARTD1(-/-) mice had a 19% higher liver weight than wild-type (WT) animals and exhibited a significantly increased serum concentration of cholesterol (38%) and impaired glucose tolerance. In addition, adipocyte function and size were significantly reduced in ARTD1(-/-) mice fed an HFD (7794 μm(2) for WT and 5579 μm(2) for ARTD1(-/-) mice). The significantly reduced adipogenic differentiation of adipose-derived stromal cells (ASCs) isolated from ARTD1(-/-) mice (28 vs. 11% Oil red O-positive cells in WT and ARTD1(-/-) ASCs, respectively) suggested that impaired adipogenesis as the underlying cause for this adipose tissue malfunction. This function of ARTD1 was specific for adipogenesis, since osteogenic differentiation was not affected by the ARTD1 deletion. In summary, we show that ARTD1(-/-) mice fed an HFD display impaired adipogenesis and show exacerbated hepatic steatosis, which can have important implications for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.The FASEB Journal 03/2012; 26(6):2631-8. · 5.48 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Already 600 years before Christ, type 2 diabetes was known as a disease of elevated blood sugar levels associated with obesity. Since then, it appears, our understanding of the disease has not changed much, aside from the replacement of tasting the patients' urine by the measurement of plasma glucose and glycated haemoglobin levels (HbA1c) for its diagnosis and the discovery of some new drugs. Already, in those old days a physician from India named Sushrut described diabetes mellitus as a disease characterised by the passage of large amounts of urine and its "honey-like" taste and, noteworthy, as a disease that is mainly associated with obesity and a sedentary lifestyle, recommending physical activity as the primary treatment option. Although these milestone observations remain valid, major progress in the underlying pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes has been achieved showing a new face of this old disease and opening doors for novel treatment options. This review will highlight recent pathophysiological aspects of type 2 diabetes, actual diagnostic and treatment guidelines and discuss some possible upcoming new therapeutic strategies.Schweizerische medizinische Wochenschrift 01/2012; 142:w13635. · 1.88 Impact Factor

about the sport
Roller derby is a contact sport played by two teams of five members roller skating in the same direction around a track. Game play ("bouts") consists of a series of short matchups ("jams") in which both teams designate a scoring player (the "jammer") who scores points by lapping members of the opposing team. The teams attempt to assist their own jammer while hindering the opposing jammer—in effect, playing both offense and defense simultaneously. Roller derby is played by approximately 1,250 amateur leagues worldwide, nearly half of them outside the US. Roller derby is also an exciting full contact sports that empowers women across the globe to become their own super heroes.

Woodrow Wilson Quotes
Showing: 21 - 30 Woodrow Wilson Quotes of 50
Liberty is its own reward.
Liberty does not consist in mere general declarations of the rights of men. It consists in the translation of those declarations into definite action.
The history of liberty is a history of limitation of government power, not the increase of it.
You cannot tear up ancient rootages and safely plant the tree of liberty in soil that is not native to it.
Energy in a nation is like sap in a tree; it rises from bottom up.
We can afford to exercise the self-restraint of a really great nation which realizes its own strength and scorns to misuse it.
The man who is swimming against the stream knows the strength of it.
There is such a thing as man being too proud to fight. There is such a thing as a nation being so right that it does not need to convince others by force that it is right.
The things that the flag stands for were created by the experiences of a great people. Everything that it stands for was written by their lives. The flag is the embodiment, not of sentiment, but of history.
Only a peace between equals can last.
Happiness Quote
There is only one way to happiness and that is to cease worrying about things which are beyond the power of our will.

The first vintage for the cuvee, the 2011 Syrah River Rock Vineyard is a rocking Syrah that gives up classic northern Rhone like aromas of black olive tapenade, blackberry, currants and toasted spice to go with a medium to full-bodied, layered and elegant profile on the palate. A resounding success in the vintage, it can be enjoyed anytime over the coming 10 to 12 years. One of the highlight (and largest) tastings for this report, the team at K Vintners consists of wild man himself, Charles Smith, and Andrew Latta and Brennon Leighton. Despite the rock star persona, when it comes to the wines, these guys are dead serious, source grapes from some of the top sites, and simply get out of the way once theyre in the winery. All of the single vineyard Syrahs are fermented with native yeasts and 100% whole cluster, and see an extended time in mostly neutral French oak puncheons. Starting with the 2013s, I was able to taste a few from barrel, and they showed plenty of fruit, with ripe, textured personalities. This was a hot vintage, and the style is closer to the 2012s than the 2011s. Moving to the 2012s, these were all still in barrel at the time of this tasting. As with most producers, these are a step up over the 2011s and possesses gorgeous richness while still showing the purity and freshness thats common in the vintage. The 2011s, which were all tasted out of bottle, come from a cooler, more difficult vintage, yet show solid ripeness and good textures. (JD) (6/ 2014)
Velvety, open-textured and inviting, with plum, fresh currant and apricot flavors. Hints of crème brûlée complement the deftly balanced finish. Drink now through 2021. (10/ 2014)
Planted in an old riverbed of well-drained, rocky soil, the River Rock Vineyard Syrah created some magic in 2011 from what is a warm site in an otherwise cool vintage. The wine was fermented on native yeasts and aged for 22 months in 25% new French oak, so the firm and structured profile with very modest alcohol is allowed to show through without being marked with too much new wood. From winemaker Charles Smith: "Cured meat, camphor, forest floor, undergrowth and cool stone saturate the palate. And oh so refined tannins. A great wine for your glass or for your cellar."
Below is a listing of the wine review scores we frequently reference in our notes. While these sources remain an excellent source of information, we always recommend that you trust your own palate.

The View's Elisabeth Hasselbeck: "I Never Feel Ganged Up On" Jillian Bowe January 12, 2011 ABC, Fox, News, The OReilly Factor, The View 4 Comments The View's Elisabeth Hasselbeck made an appearance on The O'Reilly Factor last night to discuss the recent, tragic shootings in Arizona. Host Bill O'Reilly asked Hasselbeck if she thought her colleagues on the ABC talk show "ganged up" on her. Hasselbeck replied, "I never feel ganged up on." Watch the questioning unfold at the 2:38 mark after the jump!
The View's Whoopi Goldberg And Joy Behar Walk Out on Bill O'Reilly Jillian Bowe October 15, 2010 ABC, Fox News, Talk Shows, The OReilly Factor, The View 42 Comments The ladies of The View went to the mat when Fox News pundit Bill O'Reilly stopped by today. The show's co-hosts, Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar, got into a heated debate with O'Reilly over whether or not Park51, the Muslim community center and mosque slated to go up two blocks from the World Trade Center, should be built. O'Reilly declared the center is "inappropriate" because of the victims' families, while Goldberg, Behar and Barbara Walters cried foul. Things took a nasty turn when the ladies asked O'Reilly why he believed it shouldn't be built to which he stated: Because Muslims killed us on 9/11. To say drama ensued is an understatement. To see the mele in action, watch after the jump.

Three problems related to car will not start have been reported for the 2008 GMC Acadia.
It started as a very rare incident. When we heard about the heavy key chain problem we took everything off our fobs but two keys. When the key was turned, the ignition would make a strange clicking noise and all of the electronics would turn off. The key would have to be removed,reinserted, and the car started before everything could be reset. On one other occasion besides it's final meltdown did it refuse to release the key and run the battery down. Last week, on 12/10/14, I drove thee car and it acted up 3 times. We decided it was time to put it in the shop. It opened with the fob that night but refused to re-lock 2 hours later - everything dead. New battery so shouldn't be dead. Tried to start - ate key and refused to release until late next day after trickle charge put to it. Since then - all electronics work now and then but car will not start. Warranty ran out 2 days ago. Sucks!!!.
Car will not shut off after removing key from ignition takes a minute for car to shut off car would not start next morning intrunent panel shows multipal problems have read online consumers with same problems who is responsible for this issue. Need help have had vehicle fpr three weeks was not told by dealer abought problems with electrical have printed all other complaints on line and will show to dealer I would hope that GMC does not approve with these actions. Also have problem with sreering it makes a loud clunking sound when turning steering wheel this coul be a serious safety issue to my family.
Purchased used Acadia 10/6/11 and in December 2011 had to have battery replaced because would not start. Two weeks later car would not start again. Took to dealership who discovered sunroof drain had been plugged and caused the whole undercarriage to flood and shut all electrical power down. I hear from people that there had been a recall on the sunroof drain for exactly this problem. How can a dealership sell a car that has had a recall not taken care of??.

Today, their portfolio of solutions address the three core elements of an office environment: interior architecture, furniture and technology.STYLE

Exactly what we expected Scott from Columbus, OH– Verified Buyer Very sturdy furniture - drawers slide easily, and the color is a perfect match for our needs. We purchased the nickel pulls and are glad we paid the extra money for the quality. The recessed locks on the drawers are a nice touch and very neatly designed. The only improvement is that I wish the drawers came with a drawer-organizer in each drawer, rather than just one for the whole desk. I have purchased 3 of these and 9 Steelcase desks in the last 3 months - Ill be back for more in the future. |
The best beatriz from brookfield, WI– Verified Buyer Was looking for a sturdy desk in a modern style and came across this one. Decided to give a try and boy THIS IS THE DESK. Very happy with it!!! |
Merchandiser Sherri from Markle, IN– Verified Buyer I love this desk, the clean lines and the 3 filing drawers make it the perfect workstation for me. |

Joe Biancardi spent most of his life in St. Louis where he grew up and worked as a policeman, engineer and a salesman trying to find his niche in life. At the age of forty he took his new wife to the gulf coast of Alabama where he raised his three children.
"We didn't realize we'd be trading cold winters for a hurricane prone area. Now, years later he admits the trade-off was worth it. "It's allowed me to see what the powers of Mother Nature are capable of: from the ferocity of hurricanes to the relaxing sound of the surf at Florida and Alabama beaches.
Now almost twenty-five years later he's retired and found his calling. He writes books dealing with the power of intention as well as other adventure stories. My children and grandchildren used to ask me to tell them a story. Now I put these stories into a book form, living the adventures in my recliner.
He is co-founder of the HeartMind Institute where he works with people, teaching them how to expand their heart's energy field.
As I see readers download my story, Blood of the Mystic, I am filled with the hope that the message within the story will change the way mankind heals itself. For I believe in my stories, otherwise why give them away for free.
Thank you to all those that enjoy what I write.

(no rating)
This is a stronger crafting than the debut novel,"Firewalkers"
and builds to a surprising climax. It is reminiscent of Dr.
Masaru Emoto's book "Hidden Messages in Water". This is an
exciting read! I recommend it. Monika Wichmann

Review by:
Chuck Brown
on Jan. 15, 2012 :
This book is a novel about learning how to follow spiritual pathways. In today's world we would do well to inject more attention to the spirit in the entertainment industry. This book is quite well written, and it is not just intended to entertain you, it is intended to awaken you. The author has a youtube video (same title of the book) of himself blessing blood. If his action was emulated by others it could become a social movement, and this would help change the world for the better.

When a golf pro's wife and her doctor are murdered in Palm Springs, The California Bureau of Investigation (CBI) is called in to investigate. Patrick Jane, a detective and independent consultant for CBI, uses his razor sharp skills of observation to assist a by-the-book Senior Agent Teresa Lisbon and her team (agents Kimball Cho, Wayne Rigsby and rookie member Grace Van Pelt) in finding the killer. The case poses a particular interest for Jane as the killer's calling card (a red smiley face drawn with the victim's blood) suggests it is the famed "Red John": a serial killer who years ago murdered Jane's wife and daughter. However, after further investigation, Jane's mentalist skills tell him the real killer is trying to pin the murders on "Red John" and the team needs to take a closer look at the other suspects including the golf pro, who was having an affair; his brother, who was sleeping with his brother's wife; and the doctor's business partner, who was embezzling money. And while the team may question Jane's tactics, they know working together with him will help lead them to solving the crime.

Learn German in Heidelberg, Germany
It is difficult to think of a more 'German' location in which to learn German than Heidelberg. Home to the oldest university in Germany and to thousands of German students each year, Heidelberg is a charming, picturesque town on the River Neckar in southern Germany. Heidelberg offers an interesting mix of German history and vibrant youth. Its many concerts, festivals and Christmas market attract many visitors each year and are very popular with students taking a course at our German language school. Students who learn German on one of the many courses offered by our Heidelberg school can experience life in this beautiful city, while they learn the German language.

There are also spacious gardens and a terrace where the school hold barbecues in the summer months.

Romantic, historic Heidelberg!
I have been in Heildelberg for six months and I found this city wonderful not only during the spring but also during the winter! Heidelberg has been labelled a "Romantic town" and if you come here, you will understand why! You will also be impressed by the breathtaking views of the river valley and the Heidelberg Castle – truly amazing!
The best starting point for exploring Heidelberg's historic heart is "Bismarckplatz", right next to Heidelberg's main pedestrian street and not far from the school . Heidelberg's historical city centre, the "Altstadt" (Old Town) is lively with its stylish cafés, good restaurant and nice shops.There are a lot of attractions that you can't miss: Heidelberg's "Alte Brücke" (Old Bridge), the Town Hall, the Old University and historic buildings.

VanBrocklin, Swoboda net hat tricks in win
On the back of team sweatshirts this season for the Hastings High girls is a quote from U.S. women's soccer great Mia Hamm: "You can't just beat a team, you have to leave a lasting impression in their minds so they never want to see you again."
Suffice to say, Class B-7 district foe York won't want to see the Tigers again anytime soon.
Senior Marika VanBrocklin and sophomore Chloe Swoboda each earned a hat trick, helping Hastings High (5-2) beat the Dukes (1-3) 7-0 Tuesday.

Your knees are more sensitive than the rest of your body. This is common and there are many ways to prevent the itchy red bumps and cuts! Make sure you shave downward with warm water, going in the direction that the hair grows. Otherwise you could be catching the skin on your knee.
I've found that the key to getting a perfect shave over trouble spots like around your knees is to try out different angles. Stretching your leg out in front of you might help ya get one patch while twisting around to do the back of your knee might help ya shave another patch. Take your time, use lots of shaving gel and a fresh razor, and you should be just fine.

Telephoto VistasMost people think of shooting a scenic as a grand landscape
Most people think of shooting a scenic as a grand landscape. Many photographers from urban areas escape the city to photograph the huge areas of the west. There are a lot of gorgeous landscapes that are made in Montana whose state motto is Big Sky Country. There's a developing theme to these italicized words. Grand, huge, big—with these words in mind, I offer to you to get out the "Big Glass" to photograph landscapes. I realize it goes against the norm to capture a scenic with a wide angle, but just because everyone else does it, it doesn't make it gospel. I'm sure you've heard the following words from your parents—'If everyone else was jumping off the Brooklyn Bridge, would you?' So, stay dry and strap a long lens on your camera and go out and make some scenics. To meet the guideline, the focal range for which this article is geared is 200mm and above. Isolate: Look for the photo within a photo. Somewhere within almost every scene lies another. Use a telephoto and glass the environment to find these hidden gems. With telephoto landscapes the saying, less is more, certainly holds true. The same rules for composition, light and balance apply, so don't overlook them just because you zero into a portion of the overall scene. In actuality, scenes photographed with telephotos have an advantage as the clutter that may exist in a wide-angle photo can be eliminated. In each of the accompanying images, I used a long lens to make the shot. By no means do they depict the iconic image of each location, but each stands alone on its own merit. The next time you journey out to make grand scenics, bring along the long zoom. You'll be surprised with what you may capture. Visit www.russburdenphotography.com Add Comment

The New Business Development Sales Manager position was recently added by Laboratory Testing Inc. to improve responsiveness to inquiries from prospective customers, while also freeing up the Customer Service and Inside Sales Representatives to focus on servicing LTI's current customer base. Previously, sales and service to new and existing customers were handled by the same group of employees. "We always strive for excellence in service and building a stronger support team will allow us to go on meeting our customers' needs as LTI continues to grow," said Mike Hiller, Director of Marketing/New Business Development and third-generation member of the family-run business.
Bill was employed for the last seventeen years by ArcelorMittal in Sales positions responsible for carbon and alloy steel plate and flat rolled products. He most recently headed the Sales & Marketing team which handled account service, outside sales, product development and pricing. His national customer base was comprised of small businesses and major companies in the ship building, power generation, bridge and military industries.

Is this project a reasonable place for a beginner to start? If so, are there any group buys still going on or would I need to purchase everything seperately?
Also, is there any advantage to point to point wiring rather than using the PCB...I kinda like old school. Thanks, Michael |

Great beginner project. I never soldered on pcb before and had no problems. Pcb is a lot easier method of doing this.

Brilliant thanks zoidbergslo!
This is probably a stupid question for a beginner, but is there any benefit to upgrading any components from the standard kit? Better pot? Higher spec caps? Also, how long to the batteries last? Is there a DIY PSU one can make too? Or does this bring down the quality? I'm going to be using it at my desk, since my AKG K702's are not that portable now I've upgraded the cable to Cardas L-4E6S!! Thanks again |

The designer picked those specific caps on purpose.
If you are going to build it as a desktop amp in a bigger enclosure it just needs a 16vac or so transformer and there is no reason not to panel mount better quality jacks and controls. Sent from my DROID4 using Tapatalk 2 |

A few questions- BOM, schematic, gain switch, etc
Hey guys-
Where is the high resolution schematic? And the xls version of the current BOM? All I find is the googledocs version. Also, one note I jotted down while reading through the many NwAvGuy web pages (whew!) is this: "The only thing I would not remove from the PCB is the gain switch." Why is that? I was thinking to have a remote gain switch so I could wire up more than two choices. Wouldn't whatever resistance in the wire be miniscule/irrrelevant compared to the resistors values? Or is something else going on? Thanks, Keith Ostertag |

Thanks Eric... I'm new to this so was just thinking if those caps had been spec'd to achieve a price/quality balance then there may be alternatives that could improve sound but may cost more.
I understand that there are compromises in any design. |

I recommend getting the diy kit from Head 'n' HiFi - Walter
I've built two of those so far. Very easy and straight forward and it's a perfect project for beginners. No difficult SMD components, all through-hole components. DIP-sockets for easy mounting of OP-amps.

richard November 08, 2010 6:32 PM what is amazing, is the number of different stories about this event. first it was reported that a small group of people held up the car and ONE produced a machine gun. now it is up to SIX men, all with machine guns. tomorrow, it will be a small army, with tanks.Also, the car is supposed to be a b class merc, which is armour plated. i suppose it is possible to get one,but the extra weight would make the car very slow, unless a 5l v8 had been fitted. then there were four people plus driver in the car. that would make it slower still, and would be a bit of a jam. maybe the true details will be disclosed someday.

Also they were in a amoured car?? What do the press think the robbers could do? Look up what is envolved with this type of car people!!!!!!.

Loudspeaker Reproduction: Study on the Subwoofer Concept
A stereo pair of full range loudspeakers and a stereo pair of loudspeakers reproducing the mid to high frequencies (satellites) plus one common low frequency sound loudspeaker (subwoofer) are compared. AB-AB listening tests were used to determine the absolute threshold of audible differences dependent on on the parameters of subwoofer location and crossover frequency. The performance of the subwoofer/satellite concept is discussed from the theoretical and practical point of view, bearing in mind future multi-channel sound systems.

Guys, thank you so much for your support of my little blog! I've gained a lot of new readership over the past few days, and I hope you'll all keep coming back for more. And remember, if you have an auto show story you want to share send it to me! I will keep you totally anonymous.
The ever engaging, informative and funny Bertel Schmitt got in touch with me about a month or so ago and asked if I would write something for this great automotive site The Truth About Cars. They had given me mention in a story or two before and sent quite a few readers my way, and were always very gracious. We kicked around a few ideas this is what has developed:
The Booth Babe Chronicles, a weekly column published Sundays and written by yours truly!
Check out my first piece, a wrap-up of the 2010 auto show season. Hope you like - I'll link to following pieces as they are published. And thank you to TTAC and Bertel for the opportunity!
