Monroe's Restaurant
Founded in 1998 and named after the owner's father, Monroe's Restaurant features large portions of home-style American food, as well as a good selection of Italian favorites. Regular patrons especially recommend the thick steaks, chops, and fresh seafood, including Maryland crab cakes from West Virginia's neighboring state. Daily specials are listed on a chalkboard behind the cash register.
Guests are seated in the large family-style dining room which features a large mural of a scene from Italy, an upright piano, and antiques and books (which are for sale) along two other walls. The service is friendly and helpful. -
Tudor's Biscuit World - Everywhere in WV!
Tudor's Biscuit World is a West Virginia fast food chain that features... you guessed it ... biscuits.
We stopped at a Tudor's in Fayetteville, WV, on US 19 just south of the New River Gorge. For lunch we had chicken fried steak and chicken fried chicken, both meals served with giant biscuits. The meal was surprisingly large and tasty, drenched in sausage gravy, and the biscuit was fantastic!
We ate so much of this heavy, greasy food that we could barely drive the rest of the day... we were so tired and ready for a nap! They do have some lighter options like BLTs and deli sandwiches.
Did you know that one plain Tudor's biscuit has 500 calories? -
The Yellow Brick Bank Restaurant: Lunch in an Old Town!
On our way to Harper's Ferry we passed through Shepherdstown and stopped for a delicious lunch at this cute restaurant. It had been converted from an old bank.
It wasn't busy the day we stopped so I wasn't sure how good the food would be, but as it turned out, many people come from the D.C. area just to eat here. I was told that this was one of Nancy Reagan's favorite places to eat too.
The 1910 Beaux Arts-style "Yellow Brick Bank" in the historic district of town was quite interesting, especially the wine celler that had once been the bank's vault. I don't know if I could have toured it because I didn't have the nerve to ask.
We ate in the main dining room, it had a full service "minimalist" bar and some pretty interesting decor to look at, as well as nice windows to view the street activity in the center of this old town. I would have like better to eat in the more formal dining room I saw. It may be only open for dinner.
Favorite Dish: They are opened for lunch and dinner the restaurant specializes in seafood, pasta, regional cuisine and they do their own baking and serve excellent wines.
The menu changes daily so you'll have to decide when you get there. The bread was really good and I did enjoy my meal. I would go back again, given the chance.Related to:- Historical Travel

Coleman's Fish Market: definitely try the fish sandwich
Why not plan to make a full day of your trip to Wheeling and make a visit to one of the older areas of town? The old train station has been converted over to quaint little shops and restaurants. Additionally, there are fun little shops to browse lining both sides of the street. Do be sure to make a stop at Coleman's Fish Market for a bite of lunch. Be there and in line when they open though, the place gets really busy!
Favorite Dish: The fish sandwich are pieces of deep fried fish, several of them, piled so high there is no way to get your mouth around it. My advice? Disassemble. -
October 19, 2010
We went to BOB EVANS for dinner as they have a pretty good Senior Menu. We both had Hot Roast Beef Sandwich ($7.29) with mashed potatoes and gravy. It was just OK. I know it's a Senior portion, but it really was skimpy. Also banana nut loaf came with it, which was delicious and moist. -
Hillbilly Hot Dog: They got the WEENIES! & u can sing for ur supper
How to describe Hillbilly Hot Dog? Where does one start? Believe you me, you won't find any other place quite like this on Planet Earth. You're either gonna love it or hate it...no in between. It's that kind of place. It's actually been featured in the National Geographic Traveler magazine on the Appalachian region.
If you really want to know about the place, visit their website. If you think you might want to pay them a visit, just learn that catchy little tune playing in the background of their website. If you can sing it by heart (no cheating by reading the lyrics off the menu), they will give you a free HillBilly Dog--or a scoop of ice cream, if you prefer. How's that for being allowed to sing for your supper? I sang the "Weenie Song" and got my hot dog for free.
Hillbilly Hot Dog is pure tongue-in-cheek, unadulterated camp. They make use of every Hillbilly stereotype out there in decorating the place. Two of the dining rooms are actually old school buses (they refer to this as their indoor dining facility)...crazy white trash knickknacks abound throughout the joint, inside and out. This place will make you laugh out loud (unless you are touchy about hillbilly and redneck humor). Amazingly enough, a lot of the decor was contributed by customers--who just loved the campy Hillbilly theme. Judging by this place, you sure can't accuse West Virginians of not having a sense of humor!
Hillbilly Hot Dog now has a second location--in Huntingon at 1501 3rd Avenue. I haven't been to that location, just the one in Lesage. The Lesage location has an outdoor stage and on Saturday nights in summer, they feature live bluegrass, country and/or gospel music.
The food is great, the food is cheap, the place is fun--let's go eat!
Favorite Dish: My personal favorite is the "Naked Dog" -- a plain hot dog, just the meat and the bun.... What can I say? I'm a girl of simple tastes. ;) Hillbilly Hot Dog's hot dogs are deep fried delicious. Yep, that's right folks, they deep fry the dogs. And boy, are they good....Related to:- Road Trip

Joe Fazio's Restaurant is a...
Joe Fazio's Restaurant is a Charleston landmark. It is famous for classic Italian cuisine in an elegant setting in the old warehouse district adjacent to downtown. Fazio's is reminiscent of a fine Manhattan supper club from the 1960's. Everything is first class.
High-class decor and service without high-class prices.
Favorite Dish: The plain spaghetti in Fazio's classic meat sauce is hard to beat. All eggplant dishes are incredible. -

Favorite Dish: My Aunt Nana,sure makes some great deer tenderloin and gravy,served over mashed potatoes! Yum! -

French's in Marlinton, about an hour north of Lewisburg, where the Greenbriar Hotel is located. It's a greasy spoon where the food is good and cheap.
Super inexpensive! I suppose some may think of it as a local dive but I love it! The booths are a little close together and, though I know you shouldn't eavesdrop, I can't help but hear the funny things people always seem to be talking about...mostly local gossip. The food is great, (at least I think it is) and the service is ALWAYS friendly.
Favorite Dish: Home made vegetable soup...mmm-mmm, with a grilled cheese and tomato. -

The AFC East blog has confirmed a report in the Buffalo News that free-agent quarterback Vince Young will work out for the Bills Wednesday. It's an interesting note from Buffalo, which had a great offseason.
Here are some thoughts on Young and the Bills:
- The Bills have an opening at quarterback and proved this offseason they will be aggressive. The Bills easily could have been content with finding a developmental quarterback in the later rounds of the draft. But the Bills feel they can make a jump this year and are looking to see if they can find a more proven backup behind Ryan Fitzpatrick. Buffalo also has a veteran quarterback in Tyler Thigpen on the roster. The Bills could carry three if they choose to sign Young.
- Buffalo's Wildcat package also plays a role. The Bills struggled to run the formation effectively last season with receiver/quarterback Brad Smith. Young is a much better passer than Smith and could make Buffalo's Wildcat package more dangerous with the threat to throw.
- An interesting side note is Young would be paired with defensive end Mario Williams in Buffalo, if he signs. That would match two of the top three picks from the 2006 draft. There was a lot of debate whether the Houston Texans should draft Williams or Young No. 1 overall. The Texans wisely chose Williams, and Young went No. 3 to Tennessee. Williams has been much more productive over his career and recently signed a $100 million contract with the Bills.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Today's Horoscope
Saturday, Nov. 17
MOON ALERT We have the all clear today to shop and make important decisions. The moon is in Capricorn.
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
Your idealism is aroused today, especially regarding foreign countries and distant places. If you can do anything to help those are less fortunate, you will. Furthermore, it will be rewarding and satisfying to do so. (Hey, what goes around comes around.)
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
If you can use the resources of others or even shared property or jointly held possessions to help anyone in a charitable way, you'll be happy to do so today. And you might be in a position to do exactly this! (Good for you; good for someone else as well.)
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
Discussions with others will be easygoing and co-operative because no one is in a strong ego place today. People feel gentle and co-operative. Discussions with partners and close friends in particular will be gentle and receptive. Perfect.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
Avoid disputes at work today because you are not in the frame of mind to defend yourself properly. Your heart just isn't in it. It's not that you don't care; it's that you don't care about being a warrior today. You would rather make love than make war.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
Because your perceptions of everything around you are highly sensitive today, and combined with this, you feel very creative, this is a fabulous day for artists and those of you doing original work or creating something new. You're off the charts, babes!
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
You will respond to pleas for help from family members today because you feel genuinely sympathetic to others. However, you would also love to slip away and enjoy a moment of solitude by yourself if you can swing this. You feel rather laid-back today.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Relations with others will be gentle and easygoing today because you're happy to co-operate and go with the flow. In fact, you will readily help anyone if they need your help because whether you are aware of it or not, your greatest rewards today will come from helping others. (Go figure.)
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Be careful shopping today because you're tempted to go overboard buying luxurious elegant items that you don't need. But then "need" is such a limiting word, isn't it? We buy so many things we don't "need." Just be careful how you handle your money.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
You might gain deep insights today and decide the course of action you've been taking is worthless. You might, therefore, switch to a more enlightened direction. It's possible. This is a good day to relax or study exotic, mysterious subjects that intrigue you. (Like the Ouija board.)
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
You might be involved in devious, secretive activities today. If this is not the case, you wish you were! That's because secrets intrigue you and behind-the-scenes mysteries beckon. This is the perfect day to get an unsigned letter from a secret admirer. (Sigh.)
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
You'll find it gratifying to lend your efforts to any kind of group activity that is charitable, or working on behalf of others, or working to alleviate the suffering of others, especially far away or in another country. Or you might work with one individual closer to home to do good.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
Your ambition has been fired up and aroused lately but today, much less so. You would far rather use your energy for a higher good or to help someone in need than simply to promote your own best interests. Call it a Mother Teresa influence.
Singer Gordon Lightfoot (1938) shares your birthday. You like to be helpful and are often a successful mediator. You are a natural builder and as such, you like to keep things together, including people. You dislike dissent. You have strong moral beliefs but are objective about the beliefs of others. In the coming year, a major change might occur, perhaps as significant as something that occurred around 2004.

Hey, the latest from Denzel Washington may not be getting any respect from critics but a number of factions within the health care industry are taking its anti-HMO message pretty seriously and you have to get a kick out of that. The American Association of Health Plans, an organization which represents major health insurers and HMOs, for example, has launched an ad campaign which blames politicians for problems with the system. "It's a crisis for 40 million people who can't afford health care", the ad states, "Instead of offering solutions, some in Washington are making the problem worse- pointing fingers and even proposing new laws that will make it harder for employers like John Q's to provide quality, affordable health care…" Wouldn't want to point fingers, would we?
The American Hospital Association is equally hurt by the film's suggestion that health care providers sometimes put financial concerns ahead of a patient's interests. But it's not too happy with the AAHP campaign either. According to the group's spokesman, "All the ad does is put the blame on everyone else." As far as the film's concerned: "It's a man against the system movie- to make it work, they have to make the system evil."
Considering how ineffectual politicians have been in getting these guys' attention, you've got to give director Nick Cassavetes credit for succeeding where they've consistently failed.
The beef most reviewers seem to have with the picture arises from its movie of the week teleplay tone and structure. Washington stars as a hardworking blue collar husband and father doing his best to keep it together in the face of mounting financial hardship. Factory management have cut his hours in half, his car has been repossessed and the family savings account is down to about one month's mortgage payment. He struggles to find a second job while making a point to shield his young son from the seriousness of the situation. In the course of a neighborhood baseball game, however, the situation gets infinitely more serious when the boy collapses while running the bases. Once their son is stabilized at the local hospital, Washington and his wife (Kimberly Elise) are confronted with devastating news: The boy needs a new heart, the family's policy won't pay the quarter million for the transplant procedure and the hospital's head administrator, played by Anne Heche, will provide treatment on a cash basis only.
Washington sells everything and his friends raise thousands in contributions but the best they can come up with is a drop in the bucket. When the child takes a turn for the worse, Washington realizes it's time to take action. He grabs a gun and the hospital's head of cardiac surgery then takes the entire ER hostage.
James Woods is in fine form as the smarmy heart specialist. Robert Duvall has been accused of overacting in his role as the police negotiator sent in to diffuse the crisis but makes the most of a somewhat underwritten part if you ask me. Tension builds steadily as Washington demands his son's name be put on the recipient waiting list before it's too late and Heche, convincing as a bean-counting ice queen, refuses to relent. Row after row of police and press mass outside. A swat team prepares to infiltrate the building. Meanwhile, the hostages and the gunman get to know each other. We've seen this sort of thing before, of course, in Dog Day Afternoon and several films since but that doesn't alter the fact that Washington's cause is convincing, his relationships with hostages more often than not are compelling and, at the core of the story, is a deadly serious issue, the real life timebomb of skyrocketing medical costs and healthcare industry corruption.
There's a powerful scene in which Washington asks Woods why his son's condition hadn't been discovered earlier during routine exams. Woods won't fess up but a younger doctor explains that some HMOs actually provide physicians with financial incentives for not performing expensive tests, that very possibly the boy's abnormality had gone undetected simply because some doctor had bought into the system. Hey, it may not be Erin Brockovich but this is a movie that deals with pretty heavy duty stuff. I'm not sure why so many reviewers are letting the fact that it does so within a familiar dramatic structure detract from that.
It may push more buttons than envelopes but John Q is a good old fashioned potboiler that generates ripped from the headlines heat. The story takes a predictable turn here and there and a character sees the light with dubious abruptness on one or two occasions but, on balance, the film is powerful, thought-provoking and unpretentious. For some reason critics aren't being terribly kind but I bet audiences by and large are going to find it just what the doctor ordered.

Yes. Of course. Never know when I might try to turn into a male and seduce some chick.
That's good to know? xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Of course it is. An encyclopedia like book of over 5000 spells tends to have such information.
It's in your book too? o.o
You sure you don't want to know? I could easily tell you. <3
what would a male do as a love potion....nevermind I dont' want to know D:
I personally love tea. Tea is amazing. And people don't do these things anymore.... I hope.
See this is why I never drink tea lol xD
Women used to use their vaginal blood. They would mix it with the tea they were serving to a male they liked, and it pretty much served as a love potion. <3
Sure, tell me all about you and your witchy spells

He sneers."I wouldn't be talking, when you're the one that's captured," Your quartermaster pipes up.You give a slight nod to him. "So, spill; what was Antonio planning?" You ask, slamming your hands on the table.Both quartermasters leap up in surprise, though Antonio's quartermaster leaps higher. He gulps a little and shrinks back in the chair. Finally, he gives in.

"Look in every nook and cranny, to find the gold."Your men let out a cheer, and rush around the ship. You turn to Antonio's men, who are staring at you with their mouths open. "Now you," You say, pointing at them. They flinch a little. "Go help my men, find the gold."They dash of, not really wanting to stay around you.

Prince!EnglandxReader Arthur looked out the window, the only window he actually had in his room and the only source of light in the day. Sure, it was a beautiful painted window that was one of a kind. But, the window was a symbol of oppression. You see, Arthur was a prince and a very handsome one at that. But he was different than most people. He had powers; magical abilities that most people would fear. So his parents sent him up to his room and kept him in there by his lonesome. Often times, he would look through the multicolored window in order to catch a glimpse of the people in the bustling town below. He would often sigh, his heart breaking with every day he was trapped inside. A light knocking on Arthur's door snapped him out of his dreamworld. "Yes, come in." The door opened up to the servant girl that would often times keep Arthur company, Emily. She was a rather energetic being with sparkling blue eyes and short, dirty-blond hair which went to her chin. She curts

AmericaxReader: You'll Survive Part 1Darkness surrounded you. You looked both ways to see if you could find a light, but to your disappointment, you found none. You ran forward, calling out names of your friends and family. Nobody responded. You fell to the ground and cried, not even bothering to get up because of how exhausted you were. You closed your eyes and bit your bottom lip to hold back some tears but sadly it didn't work the way you planned. You looked at yourself. Your military clothes were torn, you were all beat up, and you could tell that your hair was all messed up. "Oh god..." you whispered as you closed your eyes and waited for the end to come. Suddenly it didn't look so dark anymore, you finally realized that you were in the middle of a war zone. You saw dead bodies all around you, blood puddles everywhere. Tree's were blown down and you saw unused weapons laying around from all the dead soldiers.How come you were in this war? You were one of the military soldiers fighting in the army during World

LithuaniaxPoland Poland shot up in his bed, his forehead covered in beads of cold sweat. He was breathing laboredly and put a hand to his chest to calm his rapidly pounding heart. He felt sick, like he wanted to throw up. This feeling was known almost too well since he woke up most nights due to nightmares about World War Two and the years that followed. But tonight, his mind was wandering to Lithuania. Recently, he was reminded once more of the scars that rested permanently on his back. Sure he was usually selfish, but Lithuania was a good friend and recently, his worry for the nation had increased. His mind often wandered to that one day where he went to play a prank on Lithuania by squirting him while taking a bath. The second his green eyes hit his figure, he saw something he wouldn't have imagined. Lithuania's back was bruised and cut up. That image still stayed engraved in his mind, unable to leave. He had no prior knowledge to this. And Poland thought he and Li
2p!AmericaxReaderxAmerica 'This isn't America...' You thought as tears swelled up at the hem of your (e/c) orbs. 'This isn't America...the real America will be here in ten minutes to wake me up...' In the corner of the mainly dark room sat a man who bared resemblance to America. Though you knew as a fact this man couldn't be the sweet country you loved so much. This man had hair of brown and darker pigment of skin color than the America you knew. His eyes were crimson much like Prussia's but the indicator of this not being America is how he acted. This America was the meanest, coldest person you have ever met. His idea of 'fun' is swinging a baseball bat full of nails towards you and watch you run away like an animal from the hunt. How did this all end up happening though? America was told (by you) to come pick you up the morning previous to bring you to a world meeting with him. Only, you were awoken by being bound and gagged by this stranger. Curre
EnglandxReader: Indian Summer You were bored, bored beyond belief. You sighed in exasperation. You have been connecting the dots on the ceiling, not with a pen mind you, to create images. Sure you could have gone outside but your mom was trying to make you garden and at the moment, you didn't want to be elbow deep in earthworms and mud. Who on earth thought it was a good idea to start gardening a day after it rained and the earth was still damp? You shook your head, trying to imagine what your crush was doing but then you heard your phone ring. Your heart skipped a beat. Your crush was calling you - it was... "'Ello love." You breathed excitedly, going from laying down, to sitting upright in excitement,"Artie! I haven't heard from you in forever!" "I told you to stop calling me 'Artie'..." He mumbled in complaint before continuing,"Listen ___________, I-I was wondering...it's rather lovely outside today and...y-you know...maybe we can go out for a-a stroll in the park...?" Your he
Garry x Reader [Ib] Roses are Life Part 1Garry x Reader [Ib] Roses are Life Part 1 It was that time of the year again. That time happened to be the anniversary between you and your best friend, _____. Usually, on this special day, you two would do something completely crazy and stupid, but this time, she decided to change it up, much to your dismay. You guys were going to an art gallery, and not just any art gallery, but an art gallery specifically for Guertena. In your opinion, his works were very grim. Beautiful, yes, but grim and dark, definitely. I don't see why we can't just go do our usual thing, which is act crazy and unpredictable. That didn't make sense, but it's all the same... you thought bitterly to yourself. You were pulled from your grumpy thoughts as you took one look at the room you were in. IT WAS THE CLEANEST PLACE YOU'VE EVER SEEN!!! Everything was sparkly and bright, and suddenly, you felt the strange urge that maybe, that, this wouldn't be so bad.

The blond haired english man looked towards his friend (your name), raising an eyebrow in the process.
"Yes (your name)?"
Without warning, the blond man's eyes widened as (your name) opened his mouth as if trying to seek some buried teasure. She peered into his mouth and stared at his teeth.
"You don't have bad teeth Arthur!"
"Bloody hell woman!?" Arthur turned red, realizing how close her mouth was to his, however the girl in front of him didn't care.
(Your name) pulled out a small notepad and paper and checked something off.
Arthur began to get curious.
"What's that (your name)..?" he asked as calmly as he could. He was beginning to get worried of what she was planning.
"A list." she mumbled, not paying much attention to her british friend.
She looked up at him, her (e/c) eyes shining.
"I'm trying to see if the british stereotypes are real!" she sounded so happy about it.
Arthur didn't like it one bit, but before he could ask, she was blurting out questions.
"Do british people only eat crumpets and tea?"
"Bloody hell no.."
"Do british people love the queen?"
"Well they should I uh-"
"Do british people get drunk all the time?"
Arthur let out a sigh.
"Not ALL the time, but is this really nessessary (your name) I-"
"Is it true british people are posh and rich?"
Arthur's face slightly became pink.
"Absolutely not!"
(Your name) giggled lightly, then closing her mouth when he leaned in close to her.
"You are a little posh Arthur~"
"I most certainly am-"
He was so close. She had to. Before his sentence was complete, she just leaned in a little closer and BOOM. His lips were to hers in a small kiss.
She pulled back and giggled as the englishman began to go pink.
"(N)-(your name)-"
With that, she said the last question. (Saved especially for last)
"Is it true british men are 'lazy' lovers?" she emphasized the lazy part.
Arthur slightly grinned, before picking (your name) up and dragging her to his room, on his way kissing up your neck and sucking it like a leech.
"Arrthurr~" she moaned as he placed her on the bed, and began to undress himself.
"I'll show them.." he mumbled while purring into her ear softly. "Maybe some are...but I am NOT a lazy lover~"

Hi: 8° Lo:2°
THE BISHOP of Worcester has admitted many people will have been left 'hurt and disappointed' by the decision of the Church of England to reject moves to introduce the first women bishops.
But Dr John Inge said he remained confident it would not be too long before the first women were ordained bishop, despite Tuesday's (November 20) controversial decision by the Church's General Synod.
The legislation needed to secure a two thirds majority in each of the Synod's three houses which it achieved overwhelmingly in the House of Bishops, where 44 of the 49 bishops backed it, and the House of Clergy where 148 voted in favour and just 45 against.
But, its failure to win the support of the House of Laity by just six votes ensures the wait will continue for the first women bishops.
Bishop John - who had been a strong supporter of the legislation - said: "Very many people indeed will be disappointed and hurt by this decision, not least the huge numbers of women whose ministry as priests has enriched the Church of England immeasurably over the past 20 years.
"I want all of them to know, especially those in the Diocese of Worcester, that their ministry is greatly valued by me and many others both inside and outside of the Church and that they are in my thoughts and prayers."
Bishop John said the final decision was particularly disappointing given that the overwhelming majority of the Dioceses of the Church - 42 out of 44 - had signalled their support for it
"I remain confident that, though it will not happen as soon as many of us had hoped, women will be ordained bishop in the Church of England before too long," he added.

Is there a way to pass through the smarter search on the embed?
For instance, I can search on the openfacebooksearch page for "social media" in quotes, and it returns just those mentions of the phrase.
But when you use it in the embed, it parses it to slashes — and if you just type "social media" without the quotes, the words can appear anywhere in the status update.
Am I missing something in the syntax to assure keyword proximity?

Nashville, TN - The Workers' Compensation Division of the Tennessee Department of Labor & Workforce Development has put into place new procedures to identify employers who engage in payroll fraud such as intentionally classifying workers as independent contractors, failing to table." These practices are typically used to avoid paying workers' compensation and unemployment insurance tax premiums.
Recently, the Department of Labor entered into a settlement that assessed a penalty of more than $300,000 against a drywall contractor who materially understated his payroll to his insurance carrier. The settlement is the largest ever of the department's Employee Mis-classification Education and Enforcement Fund.
The Employee Mis-classification Advisory Task Force, created by the General Assembly in 2010, made recommendations that led to legislation to improve the state's efforts to reduce misclassification fraud. Based on Task Force recommendations the department will be aggressive in pursuing criminal prosecution, hire additional investigators and purchase fraud detection software.
The laws apply to all businesses, including PEOs operating in Tennessee. Given the slate of negative publicity with several PEOs based in that state over the last few years, perhaps it will help repair the image of Tennessee PEOs as well as the state itself and its legislators.

HASBROUCK HEIGHTS, N.J., Sept. 13, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wm Smith Special Opportunities Research Company has initiated coverage of Nymox Pharmaceutical Corporation (Nasdaq:NYMX) with a 12 month target price of $16.00. The report was written by Sameer Harish, an equity research analyst. According to the report, Nymox "is engaged in multiple clinical programs with NX-1207, a novel candidate to treat the symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate cancer. We strongly believe that NX-1207 represents a significant advancement in the treatment of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) and, over time, may become standard of care for BPH." The report estimates that "the BPH market may represent a $1 billion-plus annual opportunity for NX-1207 in the United States."
About Nymox: NX-1207 is a novel patented drug developed by Nymox which is currently in Phase 3 trials for BPH and in Phase 2 trials for low risk localized prostate cancer. The drug has successfully completed a series of blinded controlled multi-center U.S. clinical trials for BPH where a single dose of NX-1207 has been found to produce symptomatic improvements about double that reported for currently approved BPH drugs without causing the sexual or cardiovascular side effects associated with those drugs. NX-1207 is injected directly into the prostate by a urologist in an office setting and involves little or no pain or discomfort. For more information about the NX-1207 clinical trials please go to www.clinicaltrials.gov or contact Nymox at email@example.com .
BPH or enlarged prostate is a common affliction of older men, affecting approximately half of men over age 50 and close to 90% of men by age 80 and is associated with growth in prostate size as men age. BPH causes progressive difficulties with urination, such as nocturia, urge to void frequently, acute urinary retention and other problems. The condition can seriously impact the health and quality of life of middle aged and older men. An estimated 100 million men worldwide being estimated to suffer from BPH symptoms. More information about Nymox is available at www.nymox.com , email: email@example.com , or 800-936-9669. Nymox made no payments to Wm Smith for the research report.

Yates places no blame on Brown
Brown was the culprit after he fumbled a low Lee Bell shot from the edge of the box allowing Ben Wright to hook home from close range. "Nobody's going to pick on Brown, he made a magnificent save for the penalty, but it was an atrocious game on an atrocious pitch," said Yates. "It was a nil-nil draw, we were trying to nick it at the end, but we just couldn't hold out. "The quality of our delivery and finishing just wasn't good enough, but I thought the back four and keeper did well. "Every game is a big game now and we've just got to pull ourselves together for the end of the season."

A new group of opposition Alawites is complicating the increasingly sectarian character of Syria's civil war.
Regions / Syria
Although Hezbollah has been a strong ally of Bashar al-Assad, there are signs the Lebanese group is preparing for a future without him.
Calls for U.S. intervention in Syria can be traced back to PNAC.
Once loosed, the dogs of war range where they will.
As Syrian society slowly disintegrates, non-aligned states from the developing world may show the way forward to a diplomatic resolution.
Although the prospects for an independent state in Syrian Kurdistan remain dim, unprecedented Kurdish autonomy will likely result from the conflict
A remarkable documentary offers a rare look at the women's side of the mosque.
The radicalization and internationalization of Syria's armed opposition have exacerbated the fears of Turkey's minority communities.
What has been largely been reported as a civil war in Syria is, in fact, no such thing.
There is little to no discussion about the role U.S. allies have played in fueling a sectarian war in the Middle East.

Hot answers tagged snapping
If you are willing to put your data in Postgis (or Spatialite), you could use ST_Snap to do what you want.
Just use lines layer\table as input, and your points layer as reference, and set the tolerance. Something like this:
f.gid as gid,
ST_Snap(f.Geometry, g.Geometry, 2) as geom
pipe as f,
(SELECT ST_Collect(Geometry) as ...
Use Eliminate (ArcInfo License required)
Eliminates polygons by merging them with neighboring polygons that have the largest area or the longest shared border. Eliminate is often used to remove small sliver polygons that are the result of overlay operations, such as Intersect or Union.
Snapping points to a line using ArcGIS geoprocessing tools
You have a point layer and a line layer. You want a points to be snapped to the line layer.
1. Use the Near tool to find snap locations
In ArcGIS's Toolbox pane, Select Analysis Tools -> Proximity -> Near
Choose your point layer as Input features, your line layer as ...
To do this by hand in QGIS, go to Settings|Project Properties... On the General tab at the bottom is Snapping options... Check the layer that you want to snap, set the mode to to vertex and set the tolerance to some value less than the shortest distance between two points that you have. If you're not sure, set the units to pixels and the tolerance to ...
You can find a detailed description of topological cleaning routines in the source code and manuals of GRASS GIS:
The cleaning routines are coded here: http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/browser/grass/trunk/vector/v.clean
Examples for the underlying routines:

If you are a QGIS user than you get all the power of GRASS, as it is a fully topological GIS. Inside QGIS activate the GRASS plugin, create a location/mapset where to import your data.
Open the mapset and import you dirty layer with v.in.ogr: play with the two advanced parameters "snapping threshold for boundaries" and "minimum size of area to be imported".
There are several steps I use.
1. is easiest but don't necessarily try it first. copy the layer you need to edit, snap to and use for reference (as few as possible) to another document (for editing).
2. make sure you are not in the layout view.
3. make sure you don't have a definition query.
If you have a Standard or Advanced license, a simple approach is to use the Snap (Editing) tool. The example shows the results of the snap using vertex snapping at a 20m distance. Be advised this alters the input features but preserves the snap environment (in your case, the gray polygons).
If you use the drop arrow on the snapping toolbar, you can select "intersection snapping". It will snap intersections even if there are no vertices.
Maybe the answers to this question are helpful: How to simplify a routable network?
I used GRASS v.clean in the end.
In Settings / Options / Digitizing, you can define the distance radius in pixel or map units to snap to other points, and in Settings / Snapping options you can choose which layers can be used for snapping.
Only thing that does not work is snapping to the points of a line or polygon you are just creating.
What it takes to make Snapping sometimes become unusable in the way that you describe seems to depend on a number of factors, including the specification of your hardware, and the number and size of feature classes being displayed at the time.
My recommendations to avoid/alleviate the problem are:
Try to use the highest specification hardware that you ...

QGIS - WGS84 to BC Albers reprojection no curved lines, any idea why? How to snap a line to a point?
Quick guess for question #1: QGIS only projects vertices and your straight lines have only an start- and endpoint?
You can use ST_RemovePoint(line, index) and ST_AddPoint(line, point, index).
First, get first and last point with ST_pointN(line, index) and ST_NumPoints(line), then use ST_Snap to those points. Then use returned points to replace the old ones.
These functions should be in Postgis < 2.0
ST_ReplacePoint hould be in Postgis 2.0
Here are three options. Hopefully one will help.
Using the GRASS tools in QGIS you can clean up the topology of a spatial object. User @R.K. gives a good set of instructions on how to do this in an answer to a different question. The advantage that GRASS gives is that it will infer the shapefile's topology. The disadvantage for your situation is ...
You have to allow snapping and then play around with the options until you configure settings that suit your needs best. You can open the snapping options as shown here:

SELECT snap_point_to_line('points_table', 'line_table', 500).

I don't think there is a way to completely automate correcting topological errors in a given dataset. Some things, such as dangles might be able to automate splitting and then deleting the resultant dangle. But then what about slivers between two adjacent polygons, which polygon should be merged with which sliver to eliminate it? That type of question ...
If you select the line you want to trace, then activate the trace tool>right click>trace options>trace selected features, you should be able to do what you need regardless of what snapping environment you are using.
Just encountered this myself. Got it working by putting an extra set of brackets [] around my env settings. The Arc help example is misleading because they use two sets of env settings, each defined in a variable with brackets, and then they nest these variables inside brackets.
Here is the code that wasn't working:
maxDist = str(maxDist + 1) + " Meters"
What Brad said (especially make sure you're in data view - focus your data frame or edit in data view rather than layout).
You can also tighten your snapping tolerance. Under the snapping drop down arrow, select "options". Change the number value shown in my printscreen below. Sometimes this works for me. I've seen instances where this seems to refresh ...

Tech Industry Adds 30,200 Jobs in 1st Half of 2010
Anne Caliguiri Savoie at 703.284.5305 or firstname.lastname@example.com
Josh James at 202.682.4422 or firstname.lastname@example.com
Washington, DC (September 14, 2010) – TechAmerica Foundation today released a report based on U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data that shows the U.S. high-tech industry added 30,200 jobs between January and June of 2010, a 0.5 percent gain. The report looks at four sectors within the high-tech industry: tech manufacturing, communications services, software services, and engineering and tech services.
"Though the tech industry was among the last to feel the effects of the economic downturn of 2008 – 2009, it was not immune to job loss and is only slowly showing signs of climbing out of it," said Josh James, Vice President, Research and Industry Analysis, TechAmerica Foundation. "Tech employment as of June 2010 stood at 5.78 million, compared to 5.99 million in January 2009. So there is still a way to go before we've made up for lost jobs, and continued recovery is by no means certain. With job growth in three of the four tech sectors, we remain guardedly optimistic."
"As one of the last industries to feel the effects of the recession, the technology industry is now appears to be slowly turning the corner with the rest of the economy," said TechAmerica President and CEO Phil Bond. "We have weathered the storm better than most. From its position embedded in every other industry, technology remains the best hope for driving robust recovery across the economy. America can only realize the full promise of an innovation recovery with smarter public policies focused on developing and attracting the best talent, investing in research and development, and growing and securing our information infrastructure."
The technology industry continued to add jobs until the last quarter of 2008, by which time much of the rest of the private sector was already well into recession.
Over the most recent six months, high-tech manufacturing in the United States once again added jobs, reversing the downward trend. Technology manufacturers added 9,100 net jobs in the first half of 2010, for a total of 1.24 million tech manufacturing jobs in June – a 0.7 percent gain.
Two of the three high-tech services sectors added jobs in the first six months of 2010: software services (+14,200) and engineering and tech services (+29,700). Communications services, which includes Internet and telecom companies, shed 22,800 jobs from January to June of 2010.
On a year-to-year basis, from June 2009 through June 2010, tech lost 72,800 jobs, a 1.2 percent workforce decline. Over the same time period the U.S. private sector shed 334,000 jobs – 0.3 percent decline.
All data are compiled from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics' Current Employment Survey and are preliminary, subject to revision, and not adjusted for seasonal variances. This report is not comparable to TechAmerica Foundation's annual Cyberstates or Cybercities reports.

The Super Decathlon has been an aerobatic trainer for full scale pilots for many years. Since its introduction in 1976, many good aerobatic pilots have pulled their first loop with their hand at the controls of a Decathlon. It was the first high-wing aerobatic trainer to be capable of the extreme negative Gs that are experienced when doing outside snap rolls and tumble maneuvers such as the lomcevak.
Some of you might remember the red and blue Parkzone Super Decathlon that came out a few years ago. Well, ParkZone has kept up with technology and released a new, upgraded brushless motor version of the same airframe. It also includes a Lipo flight battery and DC balancing charger which are major upgrades over the NiMh pack in the old one. The Brushless Super Decathlon sports an exciting new color scheme of yellow, white and black!
Included in this RTF package:
Needed to complete:
It will take you about as long to assemble the Decathlon as it did to make your purchase at the checkout counter at the hobby shop.
The Super Decathlon's wing attaches to the fuselage using four of the supplied rubber bands. I like to install two diagonally and the other two front to back. In addition to the rubber bands, you must attach the flexible wing struts to the bottom of the fuselage (the included screwdriver comes in handy here). You may be asking yourself about these floppy struts: They are there to support the wing during high-G maneuvers. You'll be glad they are there when you start throwing the Decathlon around the sky... a folded wing is not a pretty sight!
The landing gear come in two pieces, left and right. They install by simply pushing each one into the appropriate slots on either side of the fuselage. They are easily removed when you wish to store the plane back in the original box.
Install the 8 AA batteries into the transmitter. After turning on the transmitter, ensure that your control surfaces are centered with your transmitter trims which should also be centered. I had to make about 2 turns of the clevis on both push rods to get them perfectly centered.
There was some shipping damage to the fuselage that I thought should be noted. The forward wing support rod that is right behind the windshield was tearing through the plastic of the fuselage. After putting the fuselage back into the shipping box, I realized what caused it: The fuselage rests against the foam at the forward wing supports. If the box gets dropped on the wrong end, then the impact causes the tears. I'm not sure how this could be prevented, but I do know that it is an easy fix with a few drops of foam-safe CA glue. After that, mine is stronger than before!
Now you're ready to fly!
Choose a time when the winds are calm. After you get used to the winds, this will be an "anytime plane" to grab and fly.
The Decathlon takes flight very easily from a hand-toss, but for your first flight it would be wise to do a rolling takeoff just to get the feel of it. Rolling takeoffs require full throttle and are possible from very short grass, but pavement is best. When hand launching, give it full throttle and a gentle toss into the wind with the nose slightly up. It will climb out with no problem and give you time to get both hands on the transmitter. With my first hand-launch, I couldn't believe how stable the plane was.
Landings are a dream too! The best method I've found is to make a long, low approach with a shallow glide path. As you begin to get close to the ground (maybe 10 feet) give it about 1/4 throttle and allow the plane to maintain a good flight speed as you approach ground level. Just as the main gear touches down, chop the throttle to reduce the chance of prop strikes especially when landing on grass. Nice three-point landings are easy once you get accustomed to it. I'm not consistent with good deadstick landings, but they are possible.
Remember, there is no steerable tailwheel, but there is a tail skid. If you fly on pavement, the tail skid will get worn down over time. If you use slight amounts of down elevator while throttle is applied, you can lift the tail off the ground, but you could also have an unwanted prop strike, so be careful.
Basic, scalelike flight maneuvers like the gentle turns of a flight pattern are a dream with the Decathlon. It shows no bad tendencies like tip-stalling or death-spirals. The ability to have "nearly" hands-off flight makes it a very relaxing plane to fly. At half throttle it putts around the flight pattern with ease. I fully expected the Decathlon to be much faster, but I was glad to see that it was comfortable even at slower speeds. Choose a calm day to fly: the downwind turns can be tricky unless you're familiar with how rudder/elevator parkflyers act in that condition.
For battery duration, I'm getting about 12 minutes. This is with about half of my flight spent doing a lot of full throttle aerobatics and the other half doing nice patterns and touch-and-go's. The Decathlon has a surprisingly good glide rate at dead stick. I've even caught over a minute of thermals with it and maintained altitude at about 100' while dead stick.
When the battery gets close to the low voltage cutoff, you will recognize a decrease in power, but it doesn't totally cut the throttle off. If the plane is close enough, you will also notice a pulsing sound instead of the normal steady motor sound. As soon as you notice this, be sure to land as soon as safely possible. It is possible to keep flying after the cutoff has begun but I wouldn't recommend it. I flew for about a minute after noticing it and when I put the battery on my Triton charger to check the voltage, it was at 3.1volts per cell. I decided to charge it on my Triton charger to analyze the amount of "juice" I put back in it. It topped off at 8.41volts and I put in 730mah. Out of an 800mah battery, that's cutting it pretty close. And if you're into getting more flying time, you can always buy an extra battery or two!
The stock control horn settings are nice for a beginner, but to really "unleash the beast" in the performance of this plane, try changing the control horn settings on the elevator and rudder by one or two holes (closer to the control surface). Then remember the "High/Low" rate switch on the top of the transmitter. The first part of my flight video is with the stock control horn settings and the switch on low rates. When you see the snap rolls start happening, that's when I changed the control throw to more extreme and switch to high rates.
Even though this plane is rudder/elevator, it does some near-axial rolls. Give it full throttle and build up some speed from level flight, pull the nose up slightly, give it full right stick (or left), hold it until it completes the roll and then release. Stall turns and tail slides are pretty fun too. And yes, loops are always a blast! The Decathlon will loop from level flight with full throttle.
Yank-and-bank is a nice term to use when you're ready to get crazy with the Decathlon! Climb to a few mistakes high, give it full throttle, pull the stick back full back and to the right and hold it until you have completed the snap roll.
Inverted flight took a little getting used to with the Decathlon. At first I was actually giving it too much down elevator (forward stick) when inverted and it seemed to "mush" out of the sky. I then realized to not give it as much down elevator and let the speed build then maintain altitude with small amounts of down elevator. I would suggest entering inverted flight from a nice quick half-roll to the right; This way you keep your speed up and make it easier to sustain altitude once inverted.
With a little help or a good understanding of flight, this plane is definitely for a beginner! Keep the transmitter on low rates. The foam seems to be fairly durable and is showing no signs of tearing or cracking even though I have put it through a few bouncy landings and one cartwheel.
When you want a easy airplane kit to put together and fly, look no further than the ParkZone Super Decathlon Brushless! With its scale looks, updated battery and motor and excellent flight characteristics, this is definitely a winner.
The Decathlon is truly a "go-to" plane when I want a quick flight as the sun sets and the winds die down. It doesn't get much better than this for an RTF plane.
