Yes!!! That commercial is effin creepy and that German boy is ridiculous!! I love toaster strudel too. But who ever the **** came up with this crazy *** ad campaign needs to get their head checked!! I also agree with the other poster, that is has Gay and Pedo undertones to it!!!
Dude. You need to get your head checked out. Its a kid!! Who cares. Why would it be creepy?. Your a moron
Perhaps you should get out of the 'Ghetto' every now and then and TRAVEL the world.
This is considered as leisurewear for people in SW Germany, Austria, Switzerland.
Google it and LEARN something, stupid!
What I find disturbing, is how you dumbfhucks always label someone as GAY, if they don't dress and/or act as you do.
You are clearly UNEDUCATED and IGNORANT and you should bury your head further up your collective a*s*s*e*s!
I would bet my bottom dollar, that the Scots, who wear "KILTS" are Gay to...RIGHT?
I bet you wouldn't have the balls to tell them that to their face!
After all, in this country of culture ignorant dumb a*s*s*e*s, those are viewed as SKIRTS!
GAY UNDERTONES?????? How???? And so what if it did. Nothing wrong with being gay. What's wrong are ignorant people like you. Ugh. Now eat your studel and shut it!!
You mean, "You're a moron." Now who is the moron, moron?
Agreed about the lederhosen, HollywoodNC, but the Toaster SDtrudel kid still looks creepy -- not in a pedo way, but more like he managed to escape the Bavarian version of "Children of the Corn."
It is creepy, the whole ad is creepy. I don't know why but the ad in general is creepy.<br />
The german kid's face resembles a serial killer, the flying kid kinda looks like he is amazed by the blonde boy who has just broke into the house rather than by the strudel (kind of a pedophilic gay thing). Creepy ad!
And I think homophobes should go back under their rocks? You have a deranged imagination man lol.
Your an idiot. If you know what a serial killer looks like, then why don't you get off your a.s.s and find all of them. Just drop dead. He's a cute kid and plays it well. You jealous f. U. C. K
Yeah, I was thinking this too. I actually googled "creepy toaster streudel kid" and came up with just what I was looking for. I think when they did the auditions for this they must have advertised, "Children of the Corn given preference..."
ROFL -- I should have scrolled down! You beat me to the Stephen King reference; that was the very thing that crossed my mind when I first saw one of the Toaster Strudel ads.
I just think it's too soon for a German anything to knock down the door to a private home. "First they came for the breakfast, and I didn't speak out because I don't eat breakfast..."
love the humor
I googled toaster strudel kid creepy and BAM,im not the only one! That kid looks like hes made out of plastic and creepy as hello kitty in a 70s ****. It just isnt right. Duece bigolo was asked by a "cougar" to wear that OKTOBERFEST fest outfit as a "KINK FETISH". It has nothing to do with PHOBIAs of any orientation, the STRUDEL kid is creepy and it would have probably gotten a better response with a large breasted blonde german strudel oktoberfest waitress than that "HOME INVASION STRUDEL JEEPERS CREEPERS KID" ,everyone who agrees click on the heart and give me a like.
Every time I see this commercial come on I mute it and stop watching it, because I can't stand watching him. It's not what he's wearing, that doesn't bother me because it's just clothes.
What does brother me is that he seems stiff and puppet like, and doesn't seem to blink. I can't watch that commercial because every time it comes on, I find my self looking to see if he has strings attached to him. He's like that puppet who's nose grows longer every time he lies. Oh geez I forgot his name, oh well you know who I mean!! Lol
Yes he looks like he should be on an episode of the walking dead. From the dark circles around his eyes he looks deprived. I won't eat that junk just ba<x>se on the kids apperance in the commercial.
I would never think of trying this product based on Pillsbury's poor judgment:
#1-a German (a natzi)
#2-an extremely Creepy kid
#3-looks like Pillsbury beat him up
I agree. I either will turn the channel or mute the TV. I will not buy the products. How can they pay money for commercials as stupid as that! If a company whose product I like buys a stupid commercial I will find a substitute product. Just like that completely profoundly stupid Ice Beakers one where the guy gets in one side of the cab and a woman gets in the other sideand they pop an Ice Breaker. Too stupid!
In what universe would 2 strangers get into a cab from either side and not scream at each other to get out? Ice Breakers is prob one of the top stupidest commercials. Thanks for the post and the laugh.
I am german and I am borderline offended...makes pillsbury look really narrow minded and culturally unaware. Retarded!
Get over it. No one ******* when Americans are portrayed by idiots like "Larry the Cable Guy."
Yeah, big time...I'm surprised that such a mainstream company went with such an obscure ad, who are they trying to appeal to? I, for one, will no longer buy pillsbury toaster strudel, mainly because that commercial is disturbing, and on several different levels. It ruined toaster strudel for me, and I used to really like them! Pills bury, what were you thinking? You need to pull that commercial.
The very idea that you could make strudel in a toaster is offensive. The ghost of the Red Baron will haunt their fevered dreams. Jawohl, Herr Rittmeister!
LOL I thought it was just me..
Oh god, yes! He doesn't even seem excited about the product but more like one of those creepy SS characters in Holocaust movies. "Ve have vays of making you talk..." All calm but deadly serious. I would be less freaked out waking up to the creepy plastic Burger King thing standing over my bed then if this kid barged into my house with a tray of strudel. --shudder--
I just saw the commercial again and I don't get it. It's creepy and makes no sense.
YES!!!!!! I thought I was the only one and actually googled it to see if anyone else was creeped out
Me too!
Glad I googled it also. Pillsbury choose a German little creepy boy who is so disturbing to watch! The only word is CREEPY and just to think Pillsbury chose a German to represent them.....that's really a smack in the face.
This is so hysterical because I thought I was the only person...I have to plug my ears when this commercial comes on. I sent the company and email. 8 wks ago and told them the kid looks like 'a devil child' !! LOL And my first thought was it seemed a bit nazi like.
YES! He is weird and what's with the wings and the flying?
When that boy knocks down the door, I want to punch his light out. And when he says, "Ya?" I yell "nein, nein, nein" at the TV. I would say I'm more angry than creeped out. What strikes me as creepy is the boy who is flying through the room with toaster strudels pinned to his shirt. What's that all about?
Ur too funny! Pillsbury picks a German psycho-creepy boy to represent them. I'd say that's "losing product credibility and sales for sure." Angry is how I mostly feel also. Thanks for posting the truth.
I would never do that to my boy, I'm dumb founded
He's adorable but the commercial was stupid... They could have done a different story.
he..is.. adorable. I hope to adopt a child like that so I can lock in my attic and make him say silly stuff.
youre ew.
Don't worry CharleeLuv. I agree with you. She's mega EWWWWWWW!
double EWWWW!

Derby is right to request cash for migrants, says Beckett
Posted: March 01, 2013|
DERBY South MP Dame Margaret Beckett says the city council is right to ask the Government for extra cash following concerns about the cost of more European migrants coming to the area.
The Labour politician made the comments following claims by city officials that they needed to lobby for more money from Whitehall to create better housing and extra school places to help with the problem.
The Normanton-based Jobs, Education and Training Centre has seen a near 200% rise in visitors, mostly from Eastern Europe.
And its chief executive, Mohammed Sharief, said that the problem would worsen next year because of new EU freedom of movement rules.

Mrs Beckett said: "If the council believes it will face extra costs because of migrants, it is right to approach Government for extra funding, particularly given the fact it has seen a reduction in central funding."
But a spokeswoman for the Department for Communities and Local Government said: "All councils have a responsibility to play their part in tackling the deficit left by the last administration."

Colo. food bank pioneers gluten-free donations
LOVELAND, Colo. As a mother of seven, Anne Miller already had a whopping grocery bill. When doctors recommended her teenage daughter go on a gluten-free diet, the family food bill went higher than Miller could afford.
So Miller was first in line this week when a food pantry in this northern Colorado city became the nation's first to promote gluten-free food for needy families with wheat allergies.
"Basically the whole family has to eat gluten-free now," said Miller, who walked out of the House of Neighborly Service food bank with a grocery cart full of gluten-free soups, pastas and pizza dough mix. "It becomes extremely, extremely expensive."
The food pantry, founded in 1961, opened its gluten-free food section after local activists with wheat allergies volunteered to pull it together. Activists say the food bank is the nation's first with a special program for people with celiac disease, a wheat allergy whose patients suffer intestinal damage if they eat gluten.
Celiac sufferers say that although more gluten-free products are in grocery stores these days, they're so pricey that many with wheat allergies simply forego bread and stick to meat, fruits and vegetables.
Bill Eyl, 68, president of the national Celiac Sprue Association, was on hand for the opening of the gluten-free food bank. People with wheat allergies, he said, can see their food bills triple.
"You walk into a fancy food store and look for the gluten-free bread, and it's $4 to $6 for a loaf that's only this big," said Eyl, holding his fingers about six inches apart.
The House of Neighborly Service still offers plenty of conventional breads and soups. Volunteers simply cleared out a section for soups and bread mixes without gluten and started asking activists with celiac disease to bring donations. A Denver tortilla maker signed on to bring gluten-free flatbread. Pretty soon local wheat-free volunteers had several shelves stacked with gluten-free offerings.
"Food should not be a luxury," said Deanna Olson, a Loveland woman who has celiac disease and brought in donations. "It doesn't really bother me that there's a $5 loaf of bread. But not everyone has that abundance."
Another volunteer with celiac disease, Dee Valdez, runs a blog support group for people with wheat allergies. She's had celiac disease for 17 years and said a top concern of people with a new diagnosis is how expensive gluten-free food can be. Biscuit mix, for example, costs about $2 a box with gluten - or up to $7 without.
"I talked to a mother once who said, 'I have to choose between feeding all of my kids or taking care of my one daughter who can't have gluten,'" Valdez said. "When you know that you're feeding your kid poison, and you say, 'My daughter or son is just going to have to live with diarrhea,' that just breaks your heart."
The food bank's manager, Erin Becerra, said she's not sure how many people will take advantage of the gluten-free offerings. The pantry now provides monthly baskets of nonperishable food to about 560 families.

Kathleen Schuster- Aging Out
By Kathleen Schuster
Since 2007, a non-profit group known as "Computers For Kids" has been giving away laptop computers to various organizations-- like the Boys and Girls Club. And more than 2,000 of them have gone to kids aging out of Tennessee's foster care system. Whether or not the computers are actually helping these at-risk kids is debatable and hard to track. But some have found them to be an important part of the transition from life in foster care to life in the Real World. Kathleen Schuster has this report, part of WUOT's Next Wave Radio Project.

Latest Metaplasticity Stories
Like a gardener who stakes some plants and weeds out others, the brain is constantly building networks of synapses, while pruning out redundant or unneeded synapses.
Nicolas G. Bazan, MD, Ph.D, Boyd Professor and Director of the Neuroscience Center of Excellence at LSU Health Sciences Center New Orleans, and David Stark, an MD/Ph.D student working in his lab, have discovered how a key chemical neurotransmitter that interacts with two receptors in the brain promotes either normal function or a disease process -- determining whether brain cells live or die.
A person who drinks too much alcohol may be able to perform complicated tasks, such as dancing, carrying on a conversation or even driving a car, but later have no memory of those escapades.
Have a tough time remembering where you put your keys, learning a new language or recalling names at a cocktail party?
Medical researchers have found a so-called "missing link" that explains the interaction between brain state and the neural triggers responsible for learning.
In the brain, many types of synaptic proteins are spatio-temporally regulated to maintain synaptic activity at a constant level. Here, the Japanese research group led by Professor Masaki Fukata
Scientists have uncovered a novel mechanism linking soluble amyloid ? protein with the synaptic injury and memory loss associated with Alzheimer's disease
U.S.-led research is providing strong support for the idea that one of the key functions of sleep is the consolidation of memories. University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine researchers say although sleep is thought to facilitate memory and learning, the molecular links between sleep and synaptic plasticity aren't well understood.
New research provides strong support for the idea that one of the key functions of sleep is the consolidation of memories. The study, published by Cell Press in the February 12th issue of the journal Neuron, provides fascinating insight into the cellular mechanisms that govern the sleep-dependent consolidation of experiences that occur while we are awake.

Re: Dual/Single Link TMDS
Probably many of the information leaks could be classified as bugs or maybe they could be suppressed with some config option, but a local dmesg information leak is IMHO a bit different from posting it on a forum...
The phone number thing is probably the biggest privacy issue, but I also would not like to show everyone how my disk volumes are named, how much data I have on them, and what CD/DVD titles I have mounted recently.
I understand that it could be difficult to filter the correct info from dmesg (largely because of the ad-hoc method of logging in Linux, without clear subsystem ids).
Maybe a possibility would be to add a "terse" option to the bugreport script that only puts things like the installer log, X config, X logfile and the /proc files that belong to the videocard, which are of direct significance to the video subsystem, in the output file.
This would then omit things like the hardware inventory, modules list, dmesg etc or only include those lines from those via egrep -i "nvidia|video|agp|acpi" (for example).
In cases where this is insufficient you could always ask for a complete report via mail.

On November 25, 2013, the jury in TQP Development, LLC v. 1-800-Flowers.com, et al., U.S.D.C., E.D. Tex., No. 2:11-cv-00248-JRG-RSP, returned a $2.3 million verdict for plaintiff TQP Development, LLC ("TQP") against Newegg, Inc. ("Newegg") in TQP's suit for infringement of United States Patent No. 5,412,730 (the "'730 Patent"). TQP had claimed $5.1 million in damages.
The '730 Patent was titled "Encrypted Data Transmission System Employing Means for Randomly Altering the Encryption Keys," was filed in 1989, and was issued in 1995. TQP acquired the patent in 2006. The patent related to secure communication through the use of pseudorandom encryption keys generated from a seed value, algorithm, and message data, which is a common method of securing customers' privacy in online banking and commerce.
The jury found that TQP had proved by a preponderance of the evidence that Newegg had directly infringed, and induced its customers to infringe, TQP's asserted claims of the '730 Patent. The jury also found that Newegg had not proved by clear and convincing evidence that TQP's asserted claims of the '730 Patent were invalid.
In so doing, the jury rejected Newegg's argument that prior art rendered TQP's patent invalid as anticipated and obvious. Newegg presented, in particular, testimony by its expert witness Whitfield Diffie, a pioneer in public key cryptography. According to Ars Technica, in response to the question "how is it you're familiar with public key encryption?" Mr. Diffie responded, "I invented it." Mr. Diffie also testified as to prior art in a 1982 textbook called Cryptography and Data Security, which contained a diagram of a symmetric "closed" cryptographic system, as well as the invention of the RC4 cipher in 1987 and the combination of that with Lotus Notes shortly thereafter. TQP's attorney attacked Mr. Diffie's testimony by, in part, pointing out that the history website for the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) credits the invention of public key cryptography to James Ellis at the British Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ) in 1969.
Newegg's decision to take the case to trial is consistent with its public stance against "patent trolling" and its resistance to settling. According to testimony before the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Energy and Commerce on November 14, 2013 by Newegg Chief Legal Officer and Senior Vice President of Corporate Development Lee Cheng, Newegg has been sued or threatened with suit over 30 times, but has never lost a patent suit after appeal. In particular, the Federal Circuit in January 2013 reversed an Eastern District of Texas jury verdict that Newegg infringed an e-commerce "shopping cart" patent owned by non-practicing entity Soverain Software LLC and was liable for $2.5 million in damages. This TQP case, in fact, was budgeted for appeal from the start, according to Ars Technica. Other Internet technology companies, some of whom have recently launched a public patent reform campaign, may be taking note of Newegg's patent litigation defense approach.

The average person in the UK upgrades their mobile phone every 18months. However, very few people know they can trade-in their mobile phones for cash. Old handsets are normally disregarded and left in a drawer. We estimate that each UK household is home to at least 4 mobile phones worth on average £20 each. That equates to £1 Billion pounds worth of them sitting in drawers gathering dust.
Easy and rewarding, Mazuma Mobile enables you to trade-in mobile phones and get a great price. We list over 900 models in our range. Finding out how much your old mobile is worth is very easy. This can be done in two ways:
To sell mobile phones, simply fill in the handset details and click Sell this Mobile. You will now be prompted to enter the IMEI number of your handset. This is a unique 15 digit serial number which can be found on the back of your handset (underneath the battery). Once the IMEI number is entered, click the 'Save IMEI' to complete the entry.
A summary of your order will now be displayed. You can add more handsets or edit the order at this point. Once you are happy with your order, simply select the 'Place sell order' to continue. If you have not used our service before, you will be asked to enter your personal details. Once you have done this and agreed to our terms and conditions the order is complete.
Mazuma Mobile will then check the IMEI numbers to ensure they are not registered lost or stolen. A welcome pack containing an order confirmation, delivery note and freepost bag will be posted to you within 24hrs. Simply place your old mobile into the freepost bag together with the delivery note and post it back to Mazuma Mobile. On receipt of your handset(s), we will check the mobiles to ensure they meet our terms and conditions and make payment on the same day.

You don't need directX, but you do need something that works out of the box. The problem with Linux and gaming at the moment, is that, especially for sound. There are several different de-facto standards that are in use by various distros. A game would need to take all these into account. It would be nice if Steam could provide some kinda of framework for this.
Sound is the only one that springs to mind. There are others, like compiz might conflict with 3d stuff so there ought to be an easy way to disable it (there is I believe, but whether it can be done by other applications I'm not sure about), but nothing major. GFX is fine on Linux, OpenGL is very capable, standard input will also work.

Why on earth would that make me happy? It's a little surprising perhaps, but beating off over benchmarks was never my thing.

Actually, I don't think it's surprising at all. And it should make you happy because Windows 7 looks like a solid product and that's another proof.

Not really, I just go for whatever is best for the given task at that time, I don't do brand loyalty. However I do troll those that do, so you'd be forgiven for thinking otherwise.

Interesting article on Mac and Linux gaming
Basically argues that Mac and Linux are profitable platforms of gaming.
It's official
PSN: DonOsito
So far it's only one sentence in an Telegraph article.
Valve has also confirmed that it will make Steam available to Linux users in the coming months.Very interested how Valve will implement this in regard to distributions.
They have a few options... distro-specific packages down to statically linked tar.gz.
I'm not expecting many problems. Would be great if they released it with a license that would encourage distros to provide it in official repositories. I'm not even beginning to hope for inclusion in a default installation
PSN: DonOsito
Well I expect it to work in most distributions with a bit of fiddling, but I'm curious if they announce 100% supported distributions. Basically Ubuntu, maybe Fedora.
And now for some other news:
Linux is a better gaming platform than the Mac.
PSN: DonOsito
I was thinking that it would almost entirely be down to drivers, but I'm starting to think that OSX is doing it's part in sabotaging the performance in that it's more memory and processor heavy because it's designed for multitasking over running quietly in the background while focussing resources on a single app.
Also they've found a way to get DX11 onto linux with a view to playing the most recent games through wine, so that should be interesting.

It's just an OpenGL driver issue, prior to Valve kicking up a fuss when Steam games ran like crap, apple never really gave much concern to gaming performance and many of the drivers were a couple of years out of date.
The reason is actually irrelevant, even more so in the case of Apple, as there's no way of going around their official approved driver updates.
Even with Valve having kicked up a fuss and Apple having released new drivers to improve the situation, they still are a couple of years out of date, with the drivers only supporting OpenGL 2.1 in OS X, when they should be supporting at least OGL 3.3, like they do in Linux.
PSN: DonOsito
Even more official than it was in 2010:
Damn, Valve are slow, aren't they?
PSN: DonOsito
Hmm, so it's looking more like generic Linux support now and less like a Valve console that happens to run Linux. Good news, I guess.

Interesting. /business with beard
My current dev machine is leaning towards Linux at the moment so this could be quite cool for downtime + procrastination
I'm a grumpy bastard.
My theory is that Steam Box runs a gaming build of Linux.
A large step towards this would be getting Steam and Source games running on Linux platform. The first step was getting these working on Apple's Unix platform OS X, it gave experience of non-Windows solution.

Having adapted all the bits they need to to get it running on OSX means they've abstracted away all the interfaces between that stuff and the common stuff you can just recompile. That's a fairly large step towards making anything portable, although the remainder of the work in reimplementing the OS specific stuff still isn't a walk in the park.
Cubby didn't know how to turn off sigs!
@warlockuk I think you misunderstand me, in my opinion OSX was the first step towards Steam Box.
Because it was developing Source for an entirely OpenGL non DirectX environment, plus it was a non-Windows kernel (in this case BSD Unix).
So I believe getting Source and Steam running on a general Linux kernel platform, utilising the OpenGL work etc done on Mac, is the second step.
My speculation is final step will be Valve creating an Android-like platform based on Linux which will be Steam Box.
Online since 1984
This won't make much sense, though. No Windows games which are on Steam right now would work on it.
PSN: DonOsito
One big thing I noticed in the article, however, was how Valve was going to encourage developers to make Linux versions of their games. I don't know whether and how strongly Valve are encouraging Mac development right now, but they're apparently not doing a very good job. And I'm guessing convincing people to make games for Linux will be even harder, unless its market share suddenly explodes. Not likely.
PSN: DonOsito
It's nothing to do with how good a job valve is doing, it's how many copies the publishers would think they would sell and whether the pay off is worth the bother. Resounding answer appears to be no.
A major thorn being that Valve doesn't disclose steam sales figures. I'm sure publishers would change their tune were it apparently viable.

@dominalien I wonder if they'll put some effort into a Wine like abstraction layer to enable running of DX9 Windows games. Alternatively some kind of VM solution might work, like DosBox stuff for older GoG titles.
Online since 1984
I really doubt they would, since a general solution would be far from ideal (imagine the flood of complaints about little niggles in specific games if the support looks "official" ) and making a specific tailor-made version of Wine for each game in turn would be huge amounts of work.
Also, as a political issue, I don't think it's a good idea to encourage people to simply use Wine should Linux (and even Mac) become a bit more popular than it is now and game devs started putting out games for it. Take a look at the idiot from CD Projekt bragging about how they "made" The Witcher for Mac and about how well it runs, when in reality it's just wrapped in Wine, so they had all the work done for them by the awesome Wine guys; the only work they actually did was fixing the missing health bars.

I don't get the bother really, if you want to play games, use windows or buy a console, it's not really rocket science.

Lots of mock meatPosted on 04 / 19 / 2014
I've been there around 7pm and it was not crowded. The menu is almost creepy because they use a lot of "pork", "chicken", "fish" with no "fake" in the side. :p
Staff didn't speak english very well, so it was a little bit difficult to understand what was vegan. They were friendly though.
Food was good with a moderate price.

Halfway There Florida Announces the Opening of Intensive Outpatient Program in Delray Beach
Halfway There, a halfway house facility in Delray Beach, Florida announces its new Intensive Outpatient Therapy Program, Real Life Recovery, in order to help those who need to continue working or taking care of their families to get the help they desperately need.
Delray Beach, FL (PRWEB) July 27, 2013
For more than ten years, Halfway There Florida has been a leading halfway house in Delray Beach, offering a multi-faceted approach to treating addictions in both men and women. This facility is proud to announce that they now offer group Intensive Outpatient therapy through Real Life Recovery in addition to their halfway house programs in Delray Beach.
Outpatient therapy is conducted in a group setting, yet Real Life Recovery does not use a "cookie cutter" approach to treatment. Before enrolling in group sessions, counselors at the facility will meet with the patient in order to determine what his or her individual needs are. After conducting a one-on-one session, a treatment plan tailored especially for that individual will be developed.
Group therapy sessions will cover a variety of topics including building a foundation, addiction and recovery education, accountability, relapse prevention and personal spirituality. Participants can also receive assistance with obtaining social services, learning intervention techniques and job seeking.
The fact that this outpatient program covers such a wide array of topics increases its likelihood of success. Counselors are able to help patients with a variety of issues that could hinder them from recovery or make it more likely for them to have a relapse once they have completed their treatment. The fact that individuals in the program can connect with other recovering addicts helps them know that they are not alone in their struggles, which can be an enormous source of comfort during this stressful time.
In addition to covering different topics, groups are also segregated according to their individual needs. Those in the early stages of recovery are placed in one group, while those who need relapse prevention are placed in another. There are also groups especially for people who need emotional healing, life skills, or help dealing with community issues.
The fact that outpatient counseling in Delray Beach can be tailored to each individual increases the possibility of long-term success. Carrie Douglas stated that: "We are proud to be able to accommodate each client's individual needs so that he or she knows we value them as a person. Building self-esteem is a key component of recovery, and our program helps each one affirm their own self worth."
Halfway There Florida helps people from all walks of life who are struggling with addiction. Those who would like more information can call the center at 561-573-7430.

SAN DIEGO, Sept. 18 /PRNewswire/ -- ActiveSight, a division of Rigaku Americas Corporation, announced today that it will collaborate on a Fragment-based Lead Discovery (FBLD) Project with CHDI, Inc.
FBLD involves the binding of small compounds, "fragments," to the active sites of protein drug targets. The fragments are much smaller than the compounds used in traditional high-throughput screening (HTS), allowing a more extensive sampling of chemical space with a smaller screening library. Utilizing a Huntington Disease (HD) target chosen by CHDI, ActiveSight will screen fragment libraries using X-ray crystallography to visualize fragments that bind to the target. The fragments will then be linked or grown into larger, drug-like compounds that are thought to be more efficiently binding than compounds resulting from HTS methodologies.
Several compounds based on Fragment-based Lead Discovery (FBLD) methodologies are currently in clinical trials, and the technology is thought to shorten the time from drug target selection to an investigational new drug (IND) filing. The two companies hope that the FBLD collaboration will lead to HD therapies in shorter time periods than conventional lead discovery methods such as HTS.
"ActiveSight's Fragment-based Lead Discovery technologies strengthen our diversified portfolio of parallel drug discovery and development campaigns for Huntington Disease," said Robert Pacifici, Ph.D., CSO of CHDI, Inc. "By obtaining and testing high quality lead compounds quickly, we hope to increase the chances of finding a treatment for HD soon."
ActiveSight's high-throughput structural biology capabilities will
facilitate rapid screening of CHDI's HD target with hundreds of drug-like
fragments. Automated data collection and structural determination will be
facilitated by Rigaku's tools for high-throughput X-ray crystallography,
including the ACTOR(TM) crystal-mounting system robot and MIFit+ automated

The Scandalous History of Proper English
Thursday, August 28, 2014
We are re-airing this interview which originally aired on June 30, 2014.
English is a glorious mess of a language, cobbled together from a wide variety of sources and syntaxes, and changing over time with popular usage. Many of the words and usages we embrace as standard and correct today were at first considered slang, impolite, or just plain wrong. Ammon Shea looks at language "mistakes" and how they came to be accepted as correct—or not. His book Bad English: A History of Linguistic Aggravation chronicles the long history of language mistakes.

"On the ground" has proliferated. but seldom adds meaning. What is the difference between "the situation" and "the situation on the ground"?
About 5 years ago, many people suddenly started saying "So" as their first word as they answered questions. This habit has persisted to this day. It's so annoying!
Using a word to mean one thing and its opposite should be sanctioned.
and if you spell LOL backwards it means "that's not funny". LOL
As an English as a second language teacher, I've been searching for a way to guide my students in choosing "in or "un" as a prefix to form the negative of an adjective, e.g., we have unhappy but incompetent. Any thoughts?
How about: If you will...
Drives me crazy. Doesn't seem to add to the person's meaning.
What about the crazy use of the word "random"?
What about the crazy use of the word "random"?
Too bad the producer hasn't noticed that the guest often speaks in a sotto voce style that isn't being picked up by the mic. We're missing a good 25% of what he's saying, even with the volume jacked. Perhaps you can remedy that in post, if this isn't pre-recorded.
In researching articles for the The Way We Were section of my book, Ornamentally Incorrect, I noticed a change in spelling starting in the 1910's. I wrote the following article about it.
Language Isn't Fixt
You rarely see discust that the evolution of English hasn't stopt. Altho it may look here as if some letters have been dropt and another affixt, everything has been spelt correctly. Surprized? This was the way we wrote from the 1910's into the 1930's.

The Wauwatosa Hurricanes - admitting that making it to state was the big accomplishment - gained some important experience this past weekend.
The Hurricanes sent four swimmers to the WIAA State Boys Swimming & Diving Meet at the University of Wisconsin's Natatorium on Saturday.
Sophomores Jake Falk and Jack Lutz, junior Eddie Galindo and senior Max Brovarney made up the 200-yard freestyle relay, which finished 17th, only 0.01 from scoring points.
"It was the highest finish for a Tosa relay in four years," Hurricanes coach Heidi Goetsch said.
The only swimmer who qualified in an individual event was Galindo in the 100 backstroke.
Galindo, who was seeded 24th, moved up a spot and finished 23rd in the 100 backstroke in 56.04 seconds.
"Overall, state was a lot of fun," Goetsch said, "and getting to state was the toughest battle.
"With a relay consisting of only one senior (Brovarney), it was a great opportunity for our younger swimmers to get acquainted with the UW-Madison Natatorium.
"This was great exposure for the team/school, and the outlook for next year is very promising."

from Jay Z – Song Cry Lyrics on Genius
You can't change a bad girl from her habits, she's stuck in her ways. It is far more tragic to mess up a good girl because there's no turning back from that, she will never revert to her old self and Jay is the loser in this scenario.

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- As the top two populated countries in the world, China and India are often included in any debate about the future of energy prices. The growth rates experienced in both economies have astounded the world while stretching natural resources thin.
The Middle Kingdom's appetite for oil and natural gas has led China on a commodity search through Africa and the Middle East. China has not found difficulties securing large sources of all the commodities needed to keep its economy humming along smoothly.
Securing China's energy needs is no easy challenge. At one time, China's domestic supply of natural gas provided enough output to meet demand. For the last few years, however, China has imported natural gas right along with oil.
China's natural gas consumption remained relatively stable from 1980 until 1992 near 500 billion cubic feet per year. After Deng Xiaoping took control of China and directed parts of China to allow free-market enterprises, growth in GDP and energy consumption moved higher. By 2004, consumption of natural gas more than doubled to about 1300 billion cubic feet. In the last year data is available, consumption reached 3.768 trillion cubic feet.China's natural gas production largely kept up with demand, an amazing feat in light of the difficulties faced with increasing production by almost seven fold from 1996 to 2010. Production for 2010 was 3.334 trillion cubic feet. Because demand is greater than production, China now imports natural gas to meet demand. Oil demand and production largely mimic natural gas leaving China a net importer of petroleum also. China imported about three million barrels a day in 2011. The United States, also an importer of oil, has recently updated the amount of proven oil and natural gas as a result of new extraction method technology. A method known as hydraulic fracturing, or "fracking," allows greater amounts of oil and natural gas production in areas that until recently were out of reach. Fracking is a game-changer for energy production. As a result, the U.S. has the greatest amount of proven natural gas reserves in the world, even greater than Saudi Arabia...

Murray is a defensive player and his results against the top 3 prove he's not on their level. He doesn't have the mental toughness or the offensive game as Roger and Novak and Rafael.
Of course, the USA media like EPSN and that loser Patrick McEnroe are going to hype Murray. American men's tennis is in the toilet but the USA media need to hype up an English language speaking player like Andy Murray because their players suck.
The real top 3 are Roger, Novak, and Rafael, Murray is excluded until he reverses his horrible record in slam finals 1-5 is terrible.

Bring Your Own Policy: Why Accessibility Standards Need to Be Contextually Sensitive
Brian Kelly, Jonathan Hassell, David Sloan, Dominik Lukeš, E A Draffan and Sarah Lewthwaite argue that rather than having a universal standard for Web accessibility, standardisation of Web accessibility practices and policies needs to be sufficiently flexible to cater for the local context.

From the Publisher"...this is a very interesting book which is well written and copiously illustrated with both graphs and pictures throughout. For anyone involved in using, specifying or manufacturing microphones this will prove an invaluable read." - Lighting and Sound International
"Besides being a "must-have" reference source for recording engineers, producers or anybody who desires to better understand and utilize mics, The Microphone Book is an engaging read from its first chapter on microphone history to the 21st chapter and Eargle's unique take on classic microphones and their influence on the art and science of recording...The Microphone Book is unique in its balance of broad and meticulously detailed practical information." - Music Connection magazine
Reviews for the previous edition:
"John has brought his successful experience in classical and other music recording to the book's many pages, and one can find the best microphone arrangements for nearly every conceivable situation and guides to proceed for the more unusual ones." - The American Organist
"John Eargle has prepared another useful book for audio system contractors, engineers, designers and enthusiasts."
Sound & Communications magazine
"Highly recommended for everyone who wants to know more. Read it."
Amazon.com customer review
"The Microphone Book will save you time and money, even if you only ever buy one microphone to use in a home studio. If you do live sound, record on location, or are kitting out a slightly more ambitious project studio, then this book will be invaluable. It takes you far further than the 'microphone'sections of general guides to studio recording."

No Soda in the house growing up, never got in the habit aside from looking at as a quick appetite suppressant or the best thing to wash asian or Mexican food down with.
Coke also is great when your mouth is sore in the post cold stage, really heals it up too.
And it gets that film off your windshield as well.
If backed into a corner I'll drink Coke, Squirt or Jarritos (Tamarindo )
