Riding Through The Fear: Esteli, Matagalpa & Laguna de Apoyo
Kelly went home. Despite us begging for her to stay and threatening to kidnap her, she returned to Canada and her work commitments leaving us feeling bereft. At least we still have micro-Kelly.
Regular size Kelly is much more fun - we miss her!
We spent that day doing laundry, planning our next move, and enjoying Reyna's amazing hospitality for one last night. Phil had been up at 5am to drive Kelly to the airport, so he had some sleep to catch up on as well.
The next morning we set off back up to Esteli to see our friends Ivan and Priscilla and meet their children Lara and Teo.

Lara and Priscilla
We had stopped there our first night in Nicaragua, but arrived late and left early, and didn't even get a chance to see the kids. They welcomed us back and we became instant friends and playmates with Lara. Teo is an incredibly happy and well behaved baby.
These are two awesome kids
Priscilla is a wonderful photographer. She took some very fun pictures of Phil and Lara.

Ivan and Priscilla told us all about Costa Rica, which is where they are originally from, and fed us mangos from their tree, which Phil managed to fall out of the next day.

Despite spending so much time at his mum's house, we had never actually met Salvador (Salcar on ADVrider). He and his friends Bruno, JD and Fabricio were riding from the Caribbean back to Managua, so we arranged to meet them in Matagalpa. As we entered town we passed 4 men on motorbikes going the other way - it was them! We pulled a u-turn and followed them into the hotel parking lot. We'd all arrived in town at exactly the same time. We had barely parked the bikes and met everyone when a Honda TransAlp with two riders pulled up. Oliver and Heather who we'd met on the beach in Las Penitas!
Arriving at the Matagalpa Inn
We did some tough negotiating at the hotel, which was much posher than we would normally stay in, and by agreeing to not use the air conditioning we got a room for $30US including breakfast.
JD and his rubber ducky mascot
Salvador had just finished his trip through Africa and had lots of stories to tell. We all went out for dinner and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. JD, a fellow Canadian, very generously bought our dinner - Thanks JD!!!
The whole gang: Bruno, JD, Oliver, Heather, Fabricio, Salvador, Phil and me
Oliver and Heather will be meeting up with a friend from Wales in Costa Rica, and provided us with a hope of getting a battery for our star-crossed GoPro. We ordered one to be delivered to their friend and we're hoping that it makes it in time.
The next morning our short but sweet motorcycle party was over, everyone went their separate ways. The staff at the hotel were extremely helpful and hopped in their car to lead us to a place down the street where I could change my oil. It turned out to be a small hardware store, which seemed to have everything we could possibly want.
Oil change in front of our favourite shop in Matagalpa
I upgraded to 20W50 oil from the 15W40 I have been running. We also bought replacement fuses, a new tire pressure gauge, Nicaragua stickers for our boxes and a socket set to replace the one lost in my stolen bag. I changed my oil out front while chatting to one of the guys who works in the hotel and Phil did his long overdue "doohickey" adjustment. (Very easy to do, except that his crashbars prevent him from accessing it and so he has to loosen them, and his skidplate, just to loosen and re-tighten a bolt.)
We were ready to head South again, and after debating the pros and cons of going the opposite side of Lake Nicaragua and over a boarder crossing that we knew would involve one of us taking a bus into Costa Rica to buy insurance, we decided instead to make a second attempt at reaching Laguna Apoyo.
Laguna Apoyo
For a popular tourist destination, Laguna Apoyo is very difficult to get to. Despite internet research, when we got to the village of Catarina, and the viewpoint they have there looking over the Laguna, no one seemed to know how to actually get down to the shore. We bought a few mangos from a roadside stall, and I pulled up a website on my phone. It said there was also a road down from a nearby town, Diria, so we rode there to see if we could find someone who knew the way.
In the town square I asked a couple of ladies about the road down, they agreed that there was a road down, but expressed concern about the road conditions and whether we'd make it down on our bikes. My heart dropped at their suggestion of it being a difficult road. I hate difficult roads.
A male friend of theirs came over to see what the gringa on a motorcycle wanted and told me the road was straight ahead and that we'd make it down "no problema".
Note to self: Always listen to women when they express doubt over road conditions. Men don't know what their talking about.
We rode on about a block to where the road forked. I wasn't sure which way we needed to go, but a man on a motorbike who looked about 100 years old told us that it was straight ahead, a 4km road and that he could make it down on his bike so we'd be fine.
I started giving myself a pep talk. "It's only 4km." "It can't be that bad." "Just stay calm."
We rode through the parking lot of a lookout point and the road became two brick tire tracks. Better than just a muddy track, but still less than ideal. Especially when navigating steep, tight turns where the mud between the two tracks had been washed out.
Not my favourite sight
3.8km down the road forked with three unappealing options. Phil went down the most likely looking one and came back up moments later reporting a tree across the road. He checked out the one on the right that looked pretty overgrown, and reported back that it was also impassable, that left us with option number three. It was starting to get dark.
Jayne and the giant mud hole.
Phil rode down road number three, and I reluctantly followed, stopping at a giant muddy puddle after some rough, hole and rock filled sections. Phil showed up again shortly after, reporting that this road was one that I would not like, seemed to connect some private properties, and did not appear to go down to the lake.
After having explored all the options, Phil decided that the first one he went down with the tree across the road was the one we needed. He went on ahead and by the time I reached the fork again, I decided to just leave my bike there and walk down to the tree. Phil was having none of that and went back up and rode my bike down the hill.
When Phil said there was a tree across the road he wasn't joking:
No bikes getting through
There was no getting around THAT tree!
We pitched our tent on the road on the other side of the tree in the last moments of daylight. A short walk down the road revealed that yes, this was indeed the road that led to the lake shore.
Our middle of the road campsite.
We decided that what we needed was a campfire, and Phil pulled down a couple of dead trees for the purpose. The tree that had fallen on the road was still too fresh to burn well.
In the morning I woke up and wandered down to the lake to find Phil writing in his journal on the peaceful lake shore.
Phil wasn't in the tent when I woke up - this is how I found him
We went for a swim and ate our remaining mangos before packing up to head to Costa Rica.
Morning dip in the Volcano Crater
Wildlife watching us pack up
Who's beard is longer?
This is when the trouble started. I rode my bike up the steep rocky, horrible hill (what Phil calls "a technical section") to where the roads forked, but stopped when it was still too steep to keep Cricket upright. We slid backwards before going over.
Not happy about right now.
Phil helped me pick her up and then he headed up the hill. I always feel very shaken after dropping my bike, and I was not looking forward to the 3km climb out of the lake crater. I talked myself into it and reluctantly started up the slope. I hadn't gone 10 meters when I dropped Cricket again. This time Phil was long gone, so I started unpacking my stuff to make the bike lighter so I could pick it up on my own. Except I couldn't. Every time I got it part way up my feet and the tires would start sliding down the hill.
At least the tree canopy is beautiful
By the time Phil realised I wasn't behind him and had walked down the hill to find me, I was a tearful mess. We got Cricket back up and loaded, but I was really not happy. Phil rode my bike up a few hundred meters to where the road flattened a little, and I took over from there.
Phil decided to follow me up the rest of the hill. He wasn't impressed at how slowly I rode up, although he did say I had very good balance, because he couldn't stay on the narrow bricked tire track at my speed as well as I did. I managed to get up the rest of the road without dropping my bike again, although there were moments where I was very close. Accelerating out of those moments was all that saved me.
As always when riding offroad, I hated pretty much every second of it. It is on those rides that I fantasize about trading my bike in for a vehicle with four wheels, and make plans to find other riders for Phil to go on offroad adventures with while I stick to the tarmac. I feel tremendous pressure to go with Phil because he loves it so much, and I don't want to leave him to go on his own with no support if something goes wrong. Still I find it impossible to convince myself that I'll enjoy off-roading one day if I just keep doing it.
Isn't it enough that I'm riding my own motorbike across two continents? Most women wouldn't even consider doing that. Do I really have to love offroad as well?
I've thought about this issue a lot. When we were riding up to, and in, Alaska, we rode on a lot of unpaved roads (the Top of The World Highway comes to mind). When I was riding those roads I didn't hate it, I didn't panic, I didn't get worried, and shaky and miserable. It's only since after
The Crash
that I've had those problems. And I wasn't even driving when we crashed.
I think it's possible, likely even, that having a concussion, and no memory of nearly a whole day of my life has caused me to intensely dislike riding roads in bad condition. It first surfaced in Arizona, where I nearly ran over another motorcyclist's head on the Oso Road, and it has been an issue ever since.
It's not that I don't have the knowledge and skills to navigate these roads, I've taken lessons, and I usually get over the rough sections unharmed. I just simply do not enjoy the process, and have no desire to put myself through it.
I think it's like people who are scared of heights, they know they will be fine, but they panic anyways.
I don't know how things are going to progress on this front. I'm not doing this trip to be miserable, but I also have no desire to hold Phil back. I certainly will be taking the paved route whenever there is one, and hope to find other riders to go with Phil on offroad adventures when the opportunity arises. We'll work something out.
Phil and Jugs do yoga as we pass the viewpoint on the way out
In this case, we made it out in one piece, and we were on our way to the glorious beauty of one of the wettest countries in the world - Costa Rica.
Just had to get over the border first.

When European settlers arrived, the Bay Area was mostly open grassland. Builders of cities, industries, and military reserves turned much of this into an urban forest thick with non-native eucalyptus and Monterey pine. In the East Bay, this transformation was mostly the work of one remarkable man! What became of his dream, and how do we deal with his legacy today, amid dense development, drought, changing climate, and wildfire risks?
Discuss the East Bay forest's colorful past and uncertain future with Jerry Kent, who retired as Assistant General Manager after a 41-year career with the East Bay Regional Park District. A history lover, he has collected maps and photographs and researched many aspects of East Bay nature and history.

text: It's overpriced for a one shot DLC expansion. Also the trailer is making it like we're doing this great thing by reclaiming Omega for Aria. It's really just helping mercenaries get their clubhouse back from a better armed group of mercenaries. Also, about $26 bucks for all of the DLC for SP Mass Effect 3 not including 'From Ashes" if like me you were naive enough to get the Collector's Edition.

Originally written on NFL Injury Report | Last updated 11/20/14
NASHVILLE, TN - NOVEMBER 29: The defense of the Arizona Cardinals stops Kenny Britt #18 of the Tennessee Titans after a catch during their game at LP Field on November 29, 2009 in Nashville, Tennessee. (Photo by Streeter Lecka/Getty Images)
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Kenny Britt
found himself once again listed on this week's injury reports, this time
questionable, with an ankle injury. He'll be a game-time decision for today's
contest against the Minnesota Vikings.
Britt sustained the ankle injury during the Titans Week 3 overtime victory against the Detroit Lions. He caught six passes for 55 yards that game and has seven for 60 on the season. He's only been able to suit up for two games.
Britt did not practice this week and Jim Wyatt of the Tennessean doesn't expect him to play today. If he's unable to go, wide receivers Nate Washington and Kendall Wright will start in his place.

Topic: Seeds and Seeding, Trees
Title: Sprouts from Sabal palmetto in Charleston SC
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:I live in SC and have several palm trees (our state tree and symbol). The trees are wonderful, but my situation concerns the many, many sprouts that appear in the flower beds around the trees? Is there anything, other than constantly tilling the area, that will remove them safely?
We could find no mention of Sabal palmetto (cabbage palmetto) having suckers or sprouts coming up from the roots of the palm, but rather learned that seeds germinate readily in the landscape, generating many seedlings. Removing the seedlings from beneath the canopy can be a nuisance, which you obviously already know. Much as we hate to tell you this, tilling will only turn up more seeds, including some weeds and other plants you don't want. We would recommend recognizing what the palmetto seedlings look like and pulling them as soon as they emerge. Because seeds germinate from middle to late summer, seedling growth the first year normally consists of a primary root, one fully expanded leaf with stem growth obliquely downward forming the rhizome.

I'm not talking about mashing overnight, I'm talking about a standard AG brew, starting after midnight. I'm working on switching my schedule from a 9-5-ish workday to a 11-8-ish workday. So, I mashed in around 3 AM today. So far, so good. Who's with me?
I work 7pm - 7 am. I'm always waking up at odd hours on my days off. Like today, I woke up wide awake a 4:15 am. Perfect time to brew.
I'm on your shift.
Boiling now. It smells so good.
If I still worked at night I would.
When I did the neighbors in my apartments thought I was either a crack pot or a drunk. It wasn't unusual for me to have a few beers after work at 7:AM. Didn't really care who saw me either.
I routinely mash and collect the night before, simmer overnight, and boil the next morning at 6:30am.
EDIT: Not really what you asked though...
I did that a couple times in college. Why not???
This thread has been resurrected from the dead. I figured as much as soon as I read the title and saw who the OP was.
Make Beer, Not War.
im guessing to keep it near boiling but without losing wort to evaporation

Right Where I Am… The Art of Understanding
Love is born every minute
I was just sitting there
On a cement curb
Innocent and full of myself
Can we be both?
A child only thinks of what it
Wants, needs, shall have
According to how loud she may scream
I did raise my voice,
Full of assurance thinking that
It was I who was paving the road
Ahead, (I carried a large bucket
With plastic blue stars all around the rim)
Deliverance I felt could be had
If one would only turn right by the
Yellow fire sign
Then he took my hand and
Pulled me close to the rivers edge
He sat me down on soft pebbles
Wet with mists from eons ago
He took off my shoes and rubbed
My feet with warm thoughts
I could not resist and so I allowed
My knowing to become unknown
And then I felt like a child and
I smiled into his glowing self.
He loved me I was sure and so
I layed back and let the sun tell me
Stories bout my origins…
There was a land far far away full
Of stars that carried us here …
After I listened for a while I started to cry
He was gone and I was alone
I got up and I felt good as my tears began
Floating down the river to all that I desired.
I jumped in after them.. I floated until I caught
Up with my salty sweethearts
They felt buoyant as I came to float with them
On top I was and began singing them old negro spirituals
I saw the glory of my life and the ease by which
My happiness came
It seemed my life was expanding to a place called
Humble beginnings
I did not have to paddle nor look to where I was going
Magic seeds that had been planted in my belly began to
He was born inside me.
I felt more love than I had ever known.

Low socio-economic status (SES) is associated with a shortened life expectancy, but its effect on aging is unknown. The rate of white-blood-cell (WBC) telomere attrition may be a biological indicator of human aging. We tested the hypothesis that SES is associated with telomere attrition independent of known risk factors influencing the aging process. We studied 1552 female twins. A venous blood sample was taken from each twin and isolated WBCs used for extraction of DNA. Terminal restriction fragment length (TRFL) was measured. Questionnaire data were collected on occupation, education, income, smoking, exercise, height and weight. Standard multiple linear regression and multivariate analyses of variance tested for associations between SES and TRFL, adjusting for covariates. A discordant twin analysis was conducted on a subset to verify findings. WBC telomere length was highly variable but significantly shorter in lower SES groups. The mean difference in TRFL between nonmanual and manual SES groups was 163.2 base pairs (bp) of which 22.9 bp (∼14%) was accounted for by body mass index, smoking and exercise. Comparison of TRFL in the 17 most discordant SES twin pairs confirmed this difference. Low SES, in addition to the harmful effects of smoking, obesity and lack of exercise, appears to have an impact on telomere length.
Socio-economic status (SES) has a major impact on health (WHO, 2002; Adams & White, 2004; Marmot, 2004, 2005; Sapolsky, 2005). There is a wealth of evidence that lower SES is associated with increased risks of cardiovascular, respiratory, rheumatic and psychiatric diseases; low birthweight; infant mortality; and mortality from all causes (Sapolsky, 2005). These and lifestyle factors such as smoking, physical activity and diet increase the propensity to aging-related diseases (WHO, 2002). SES has an impact on life expectancy as well as health (Marmot, 2004). As aging confers the greatest risk of death, a lower SES may diminish life expectancy not only by predisposing to aging-related diseases, but also because it may influence the aging process itself.
Aging is the progressive loss of metabolic and physiologic functions (Kirkwood & Austad, 2000), but its trajectory is not uniform, suggesting considerable variation in the biology of aging. This variation may arise from a host of genetic and environmental factors that impact on oxidative stress (Finkel & Holbrook, 2000) and inflammation (Finch & Crimmins, 2004). In this narrow sense, aging may be defined as the life history of the individual, expressed in the cumulative burden of oxidative stress and inflammation. White-blood-cell (WBC) telomere dynamics (telomere length and attrition rate) in vivo appears to chronicle these processes and, as such, provides an account of biological aging above and beyond chronological age (Aviv, 2004).
Telomeres consist of DNA repeat sequences, which together with telomere-binding proteins, cap and protect chromosome ends (Wong & Collins, 2003). In cultured human somatic cells, telomere length is shortened with each cycle of replication and such attrition ultimately leads to a loss of replicative capacity (replicative senescence). As telomere length in proliferative somatic cells is inversely correlated with age, it appears that in humans, telomere length also registers cell replication in vivo (Aviv, 2004).
We tested the hypothesis that SES is associated with telomere attrition independent of known risk factors influencing the aging process. To this end, using 1552 unselected female twins, we examined the relationship between SES (as measured in the UK by employment-derived social class groups) and WBC terminal restriction fragment length (TRFL), and assessed the contribution of known socio-economically distributed risk factors for ill-health, including body mass index (BMI), smoking and exercise to this association. By examining within-pair telomere differences for a small subgroup of atypical twins, currently discordant for SES, we were able to test further our hypothesis while reducing the confounding effects of birth cohort, genetic variation and upbringing (Williams et al., 2005).
TRFL, although highly variable with a range from 5.15 kb to 9.38 kb, was negatively correlated with chronological age, getting shorter at an extrapolated annual average rate of 19.8 bp per year (SE ± 1.7). All of the lifestyle risk factors considered were significantly associated, in the expected direction, with SES (Table 1). BMI and smoking status were negatively correlated, while increasing physical activity and higher SES were positively correlated with age-adjusted TRFL (Table 1).

Figure 1 shows the mean age-adjusted TRFL for each SES group (I to IV/V). There was an overall decreasing trend in TRFL with lower SES (P < 0.024). We divided the SES into nonmanual (white-collar) workers (I–IIIN) and manual (blue-collar) workers (IIIM–V) and showed a significant mean difference of 163.2 bp (SE 37.9 bp) between the two groups (P < 0.01) (Fig. 2). After adjusting for age, BMI, smoking status, and physical activity, a significant difference of 140.3 bp (SE 38.0 bp) in TRFL remained (P < 0.04). After further adjustment for paternal and maternal age, the mean difference in TRFL between blue- and white-collar workers was essentially unchanged at 126.4 bp (P < 0.047).
One possibility is that the SES association is due mainly to poverty and resulting deprivation. However, our data on family income, although incomplete (69%), showed no link between income and WBC TRFL. The average income of those classified as nonmanual was between £20 000 and £24 999, and for the manual workers was between £15 000 and £19 999. The use of income as a marker of SES is less discriminatory for health outcomes in the UK than either education- or occupation-based social class, as opposed to in the USA (Duncan et al., 2002; Marmot, 2004). Ignorance about health-related risks is another potential explanation, but despite an association between education and SES, we found that the trend between educational attainment and telomere length was not significant. This may be because once achieved, education level cannot be affected by subsequent changes in SES.
TRFL has been previously noted to be heritable (familial) based on twin and family studies (Jeanclos et al., 2000; Nawrot et al., 2004). Therefore, genetics could be a mediator or confounder of the relationship. From a previous study – of which the current sample is a subgroup – we estimated heritability to be ∼36% (95% CI 18–48%) (Andrew et al., 2006). To reduce the influence of genetic factors and to clarify the importance of nongenetic and nonshared factors on TRFL, we looked at TRFL differences in pairs of twins who were raised together until at least the age of 16 and were discordant for SES. Comparison of 17 pairs of twins (all dizygotic and aged between 32 and 68 years) who were most discordant for SES revealed that in 12 pairs the individual with the higher SES also had a longer TRFL (Fig. 3). Summing the 17 discordant pairs, there was an average difference in TRFL between the twin in class I vs. their co-twin in class IV or V of 187 bp (P < 0.025). This difference was still significant after adjustment for confounders (BMI, smoking and exercise) (177 bp, P < 0.043).
Socio-economic status influences health and mortality (WHO, 2002; Adams & White, 2004; Marmot, 2004, 2005; Sapolsky, 2005), but its impact on the aging process itself is unknown. WBC telomere attrition is accelerated with an increase in body mass and a rise in insulin resistance (Gardner et al., 2005). In the same population as reported here, not only increased body mass but also leptin levels and smoking were found to be significantly associated with shorter WBC telomeres (Valdes et al., 2005). In addition, WBC telomeres are shorter in individuals with coronary artery disease (Ogami et al., 2004) and dementia (Panossian et al., 2003). Such disorders are associated with increased levels of oxidative stress and inflammation – expressed by increased WBC turnover (Valdes et al., 2005). Moreover, in one study, WBC telomere length forecasts death so that elderly individuals with shorter telomere length have a higher mortality risk than their peers with longer telomeres (Cawthon et al., 2003). Other studies have not confirmed these findings (Martin-Ruiz et al., 2005; Bischoff et al., 2006). However, these two later studies were conducted in extreme elderly populations (with mean ages of 90 and 81, respectively), so results could be subject to a healthy survivor bias.
Here we report that individuals of a lower SES have shorter telomeres than their peers of a higher SES. In fact, the mean difference in TFRL between nonmanual (I–IIIN) and manual (IIIM–V) workers was 163.2 bp (which represents eight times the average annual loss in telomere length based on the rate of TRFL attrition for the entire cohort). After accounting for the influences of body size, smoking and physical activity, we found women of the lower SES (manual workers) had WBC telomeres shorter on average by 140.3 bp compared with those of a higher SES (nonmanual or white-collar workers). This implies that individuals in lower SES experience a more intense exposure to risk factors (other than obesity, smoking and lack of exercise) that accelerate WBC telomere attrition. Such findings are compatible with the concept linking SES with health and longevity (Adams & White, 2004; Marmot, 2004). By studying twin pairs who lived together during childhood and then became discordant for SES – either through their own or their spouses' occupation – we confirmed the effect of SES on TRFL in the whole group. These discordant twin pairs exhibited an average intrapair difference in TRFL of 177 bp, suggesting substantial influences of social hierarchy, not only on health as shown in humans and primates (Sapolsky, 2005), but also on telomere attrition.
Recent evidence suggests that psychosocial factors may actually have greater impact on health than lifestyle variables such as smoking, drinking, diet, activity and susceptibility to infections (Sapolsky, 2005). In this context, the Whitehall II study of UK civil servants showed a clear health gradient with employment grade. Psychosocial work characteristics such as job strain, in particular low control at work and effort-reward imbalance (leading to low self-esteem), were strong determinants of self-reported coronary events among men (Kuper & Marmot, 2003). With respect to SES, exposure to adverse psychosocial environments is not only likely to be greater among lower socio-economic groups, but these individuals are also more vulnerable to associated harmful effects (Siergrist & Marmot, 2004). Psychological stress is therefore one obvious contributor to the observed reduction in telomere length with lower SES in this study. Several recent studies support this association. Perceived stress levels were found to have a significant effect on telomere length in a group of 39 'caregiving' mothers (Epel et al., 2004) and also on oxidative DNA damage in female workers (Irie et al., 2001). Furthermore, oxidative DNA damage was found in women suffering from psychological depression (Irie et al., 2003).
Although all volunteers for this study were female, SES was based on the higher occupational level of either the twin or their partner, so we believe that the conclusions can be generalized to the whole population. Furthermore, the twins were similar to age-matched population singletons in terms of disease-related and lifestyle characteristics (Andrew et al., 2001). As with any study of SES, the measure used is open to criticism, as different socio-economic measures in different populations and contexts result in different estimates of the effect of SES on health (Duncan et al., 2002). There is no global gold standard for estimating SES status in women; however, the use of The Registrar General's Social Classification is the accepted standard method used in the UK and any random misclassification due to this method would have reduced the size or significance of any real relationship.
Finally, age-adjusted WBC telomere length is highly variable among humans. Our data are cross-sectional; therefore, do not take into account movement between classes over lifetime. For future studies, a longitudinal design would be most informative to detect interindividual variation in telomere length both over time and across different social groups and to clarify causality. Several such prospective studies to date have produced conflicting results as to the association between telomere length and subsequent morbidity or mortality in the very elderly (Cawthon et al., 2003; Martin-Ruiz et al., 2005; Bischoff et al., 2006). Nonetheless, our study, performed on a large cohort, indicates that differences in WBC telomere length between low and high SES individuals cannot be explained by variations in genes, smoking, BMI and physical activity. Rather, in and of itself, SES appears to have an impact on WBC telomere dynamics.
Experimental procedures
We studied 1552 Caucasian female twins, comprising 749 dizygotic (DZ) and 27 monozygotic (MZ) pairs. All were volunteers from the St Thomas' (TwinsUK) Adult Twin Registry, ascertained from the general population and shown to be comparable to age-matched population singletons (Andrew et al., 2001). These unselected DZ and MZ twins have been recruited since 1992 using twin registers and national media campaigns and used in a wide variety of studies (http://www.twin-research.ac.uk). Zygosity was determined by a validated questionnaire (Peeters et al., 1998) and confirmed by multiplex DNA fingerprinting in cases of uncertainty. Historically the cohort is predominantly female and TRF measurements were performed preferentially on DZ twins as part of an ongoing genetic linkage study. Individuals in this cohort (ages 18–75) underwent detailed clinical assessment and completed questionnaires concerning a wide range of health and lifestyle issues. All provided informed consent approved by The St Thomas' Hospital Research Ethics Committee.
Subjects completed a questionnaire detailing their educational level (12-point scale ranging from no qualification to university degree), and their own and their partner's occupation. The grouping of occupations was based on Goldthorpe & Hope (1974) and classifications based on the National Statistics Socio-Economic Classification (NS-SEC, 2002).
Subjects were assigned to an SES I, II, IIIN, IIIM, IV or V (as used routinely in UK studies; Marmot, 2004), based on the higher occupational level of either the twin or their partner, in accordance with the new UK NS social-economic measure. According to this system: I, professional occupations; II, managers & administrators and associate professional & technical workers; IIIN, clerical and secretarial nonmanual skilled occupations; IIIM, crafts & manual related skilled occupations; IV, partly skilled occupations; and V, unskilled occupations. In addition, subjects indicated if they were not working (e.g. housewife, student, unemployed, disabled or retired). Two hundred forty-nine (249) subjects could not be included in the analysis because both they and their partner were in this latter category.
Smoking – ascertained from a self-reported measure – was recorded as a semiquantitative variable with three values: 0 = never smoked, 1 = ex-smoker, and 2 = current smoker. Height and weight – from which BMI was calculated as weight in kg/height in m2– were recorded as previously described (Valdes et al., 2005). Current physical activity during leisure time was recorded on a 4-point scale: 1 = inactive, 2 = light, 3 = moderate, and 4 = heavy. This classification system was significantly correlated with more detailed activity assessments reported in previous exercise research on a subset of these individuals several years earlier based on the Allied Dunbar Health Survey (Etherington et al., 1996) as previously described. Household income data were also collected on a subsample of respondents willing to disclose this information (69%).
A venous blood sample was taken from each twin following an overnight fast. The isolated WBCs were used for extraction of DNA. Terminal restriction fragment length (TRFL), an index of telomere length, was measured by Southern blot method as previously described (Benetos et al., 2001). The laboratory conducting the TRFL measurements was completely blinded to all characteristics of the WBC donors. Results of TRFL measurements, identified only by coded ID numbers, were electronically transmitted and merged with the covariate data.
Statistical analyses (cross-sectional analysis)
We used standard multiple linear regression techniques to correlate the TRFL with parameters of interest and, using multivariate analyses of variance, tested associations between categorical semiquantitative variables and TRFL, adjusting for age and other covariates. In order to explore linear trends, we stratified by SES I, II, IIIN, IIIM, IV and V. For the purpose of analysis, SES IV and V were merged, as there were fewer than 50 in the lowest group (unskilled manual workers). Using multivariate analysis of variance, we computed least-squared TRFL means and the corresponding standard errors for specific groups of SES or physical activity level, adjusted for age and, where indicated, for other covariates. To adjust for non-independence between twins in a pair, bootstrap sets were generated selecting a random twin from each pair using analysis of variance and the P-value of the mean test statistic from 100 replicates was used to confirm statistical significance. S-Plus 6.0 (Insightful Corp) software was used.
Discordant twin pair analysis
To further test our hypothesis, we examined within twin pair TRFL differences for 17 pairs of twins who were raised together until at least 16 years but are currently discordant for SES (I vs. IV/V). All such twins were non-identical. This comparison reduces the effect of random genetic and environmental variation as non-identical twins (DZ) share on average 50% of their genes and most of their early environmental influences and education. Overall mean and standard error of within pair TRFL difference were calculated.

Intense. Informative.
"Half the Sky" the book is powerful. "Half the Sky" the documentary film is extraordinary, a lot because we the viewer saw what is going on in several countries, and saw what several extraordinary and courageous women (and two men) were doing to create necessary changes. There are horrible actions being taken against women and children, but there are also beacons of hope and safe havens, too. Watch this film, be moved, and then figure out what small thing you can do that will support big change.
excellent documentary on global needs, from female circumcision to child prostitution; and how they are solving the problem as we speak!
The documentary based on the book of the same name. I would highly recommend this important film.. Everyone should have an understanding of this global situation. You get the opportunity to meet some incredible and dynamic people in this film who are really making a difference in the world... one woman at a time. So inspirational.

seed pods
This year some of my special brugs..P&C, santa rosa, misti
morn,etc formed nice seed pods. Some are nice, large ones
(still green). Is there a special way to let them dry in
order to salvage them? I took two large ones from my
santa rosa this morning because I was sending it for a
trade. It's lying there on the table because I'm not sure what to do with it. Tell me ...someone.
If you picked the pods before they were ripe you might not be able to salvage any seeds. A pod doesn't have to dry out to be ripe. It remains green but it softens. Sometimes it does get a bit lighter and the stem will often begin to yellow. Ripe seeds range from tan to black and the covering is moist and spongy feeling whe fresh. You can plant them fresh without peeling the cork off. Unripe seeds are white. Sometimes it's possible to get them to germinate if they are planted immediately. Don't allow unripe seeds to dry out.

"I customized these invites with shades of purple and sage. They were SO cute!! I was worried it would be a very time consuming and frustrating task because I had to customize quite a bit including the main wording and didn't know if it could be done. I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was and how nice their customer service is. The quality was very good and the standard paper it came in was nice and thick. These will perfectly compliment our outdoor, rustic wedding!"
"Everything about this wedding invite was perfect to me. It is simple and elegant. I got it on the pearl shimmer paper, and it came out beautifully. Not sparkly, but just a little hint of shimmer in the design. I am having an outdoor wedding, and I think the design fits with that style wedding. Also, it shipped SO quickly. I got these in the mail less than a week after I placed the original order. So happy with every WPD order I've placed!"
"The designers were able to accommodate my color request with no issues. The Font is simple and perfect for the bride that does not need all the crazy details.""
"I ordered this invitation with the pearl white shimmer finish along with the pearl white shimmer pocket folds and it looks beautiful! The card stock has a nice weight to it. I ordered these invitations for a vow renewal ceremony and I liked that I could re-word the invitation to say just that instead of the wording being about a wedding. I had ordered a different Save The Date design and wasn't happy with the end product so I took a gamble on this new design and I am very pleased with product, I can't wait to send them out!"
"Our wedding invitations turned out amazing! The pearl shimmer is a must, adds elegance to a simple yet beautiful invitation. The initials scribed on the back of the invite was a perfect finishing touch, and all of our guests have complimented the invitation as well!"

"There comes a time in your life, when you walk away from all the drama and people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you laugh. Forget the bad, and focus on the good. Love the people who treat you right, pray for the ones who don't. Life is too short to be anything but happy. Falling down is a part of life, getting back up is living."
