Crop Protection Association visit
The John Innes Centre recently welcomed Dominic Dyer, the Chief Executive of the Crop Protection Association to the site, which was a chance to present an update on the JIC's latest research to the representative body of the crop protection industry.
As well as hearing about JIC's fundamental research on pests and diseases, and efforts to improve crop resistance, scientists were able to give an overview of pioneering work in wheat molecular genetics, and how wild relatives of wheat can be exploited in breeding programmes. The effects of climate change on the spectrum of wheat diseases was another important topic, relevant to a discussion on the larger subject of food security.
Sophien Kamoun and Jonathan Jones of The Sainsbury Laboratory also spoke about the world leading research being undertaken on disease resistance.
Following his visit, Dominic Dyer said "The food security threat is one of the greatest challenges facing the future of mankind. The work carried out at the John Innes Centre is of critical importance in providing farmers with the necessary tools to deal with crop pests and diseases and finding scientific solutions to the need to produce more food for a global population which could reach 9.5 billion by 2050, whilst making more efficient use of land water and energy"
The Crop Protection Association (CPA) represents members engaged in the manufacture, formulation and supply of crop protection products for use in agriculture, horticulture, forestry, home gardening, industrial, amenity and local authority outlets.

Technical Data
CCR2 (Chemokine Receptor 2, CC-CKR-2)
CCR2, or C-C chemokine receptor type 2, is a receptor for several monocyte chemoattractant proteins (MCP1, MCP3, MCP4) which specifically mediate monocyte chemotaxis. CCR2 transduces such signals by increasing the intracellular level of calcium ions. For example, MCP1 is involved in monocyte infiltration in inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis as well as in the inflammatory response against tumors. CCR2 is also an alternative coreceptor with CD4 for HIV-1 infection. CCR2 has two isoforms and has been reported to be expressed in a wide variety of tissues, including blood, brain, heart, kidney, liver, lung, ovary, pancreas, spinal cord, spleen and thymus.
Cellular Localization: Cell Membrane
Positive Control: Immunohistochemistry on sections of mouse spleen.
Suitable for use in Western Blot, Immunohistochemistry (paraffin-embedded sections) and Immunocytochemistry. Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution:
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Storage and Stability:
May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, add glycerol (40-50%) and aliquot. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.

Square Enix began its current fiscal year on the lifting wings of a dragon--Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 2, that is. During the April-June period, the Japanese publisher saw production enough out of the DS title to post a ¥1.81 billion ($22.5 million) profit on revenues that were up 11 percent from the prior year to ¥32.5 billion ($403 million). However, Square Enix has been unable to sustain that pace through its second fiscal quarter.
With Square Enix expected to release its six-month earnings later this week, the publisher today preannounced a severe downward earnings revision for the April-September fiscal period. Having previously forecast sales of ¥76 billion ($942 million), Square Enix now expects to pull in ¥68 billion ($843 million) for the period, a 10.5 percent decrease.
Profit projections also fell sharply. With initial six-month income estimated at ¥2.4 billion ($29 million), Square Enix now expects to bring in ¥1.7 billion ($21 million), a change of 29.2 percent.
As for the why, Square Enix said new game software releases saw "relatively smaller growth," though no specific titles were named. Square Enix released a handful of high-profile titles during the period. Included among these was the tepidly received Front Mission Evolved, as well as Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep, Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days, and Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light.
The publisher also attributed its revision to an appreciation of the yen in foreign currency markets, as well as losses associated with the sale of equipment and property and a change in accounting standards.
Square Enix believes it will be able to compensate for the second-quarter weakness through the rest of its fiscal year. Therefore, the publisher said that it has not revised its full-year earnings projections.

From The Sports Network
By Gregg Xenakes, CFL Editor
DATE & TIME: Saturday, October 6, 10:00 p.m. (et).
GAME NOTES: The fight for first place in the West Division standings heats up on Saturday night at BC Place, as the Calgary Stampeders come calling on the British Columbia Lions.
Sporting the best record in the league after 13 games, the Lions had a chance to distance themselves even further last week when they clashed with Saskatchewan, but BC was tripped up in the 27-21 setback, snapping what had been a three-game win streak, which means Calgary is just two points behind in the standings entering the week.
The Stampeders managed to bounce back from their first loss in more than a month when they sized up Edmonton last Friday and were able to stomp the Eskimos in a 39-15 decision. The victory was the fifth in the last six games for a Calgary group that had been 3-4 after seven games to begin the season.
Despite being held scoreless in the first quarter, the Stamps found their rhythm in the second frame as they delivered 20 points and then cruised from there thanks in part to Jon Cornish who ran for 180 yards and two touchdowns as he reached the 1,000-yard mark for the season. Cornish, who carried the ball 20 times, became just the eighth Canadian in league history to reach 1,000 yards in a single season. His total of 1,127 yards at this stage is the fifth-highest total for a native born running back. As long as he remains healthy and an integral part of the Calgary offense, the chances of Cornish setting the all-time single-season mark for Canadian ball carriers appears rather favorable.
Kevin Glenn, who began the season as a backup at quarterback for the Stamps, now has a record of 7-2 as a starter after hitting on 21-of-28 passes for 292 yards and a couple of majors for the hosts last week. Glenn has now thrown for 18 TDs and 3,099 yards while completing 68 percent of his pass attempts. The gunslinger has eclipsed the 3,000-yard mark for an eighth consecutive season, thanks in part to Joe West who last week caught six passes for a game-high 135 yards.
The Lions were not nearly as productive last Saturday as they delivered just a single point through the first 30 minutes of action, en route to the six-point loss at Saskatchewan. In fact, the effort was so poor for much of the game that quarterback Travis Lulay was in jeopardy of seeing his consecutive games streak with at least one TD pass come to an end at 23.
However, during a feverish fourth quarter that saw the teams combine for 22 points, Lulay was able to guide the Lions into the end zone finally with a couple of TD passes to Marco Iannuzzi of 23 and 15 yards. Unfortunately, the signal-caller also ended his team's comeback bid when he threw a late interception.
Lulay, who trails Sam Etcheverry who had a string of 34 straight games with at least one passing touchdown between 1954-56, finished the meeting 19-of-36 for 232 yards and a pair of picks.
In addition to losing the game, the Lions also lost a pair of key skill players on offense as both Geroy Simon and Arland Bruce failed to come out for the second half. Simon, who ran his consecutive games streak with at least one catch to 172 in a row, finished with three grabs for 22 yards before exiting with a hamstring injury, while Bruce suffered a vicious hit that caused him to fall awkwardly on his head.
Trying to find some good news in the loss, aside from the streaks for Lulay and Simon continuing, linebacker Adam Bighill earned his second straight CFL Defensive Player of the Week award as he registered a club-record 13 tackles.
Bighill might be able to hold his own and generate big plays for the BC defense, but the real issue entering this week is what will happen if Simon and Bruce both sit out the meeting with Calgary? The pair have combined for 1,260 yards and six touchdowns and that kind of effort is not easily transferable to the next receivers on the depth chart. Then again, Lulay was able to make a strong run late in the fourth quarter with Iannuzzi as his favored target so anything is possible.
BC took down the Stamps in the first meeting of the season in late July by a score of 34-8 on the road, but it is still Calgary which owns a 94-76-5 record in the all-time, regular-season series dating back to 1954. Three weeks from now the squads will complete their season series in Calgary, a game which could have serious postseason implications no matter what the outcome of this meeting might be.
Even though both Simon and Bruce have been somewhat average this season, the fact that they command so much attention from defenses is key to the BC offense being able to move the ball down the field by other means. If both should be watching from the sidelines this time around, Calgary might be able to pull off the win on the road.
Sports Network Predicted Outcome: Calgary 31, British Columbia 22

No. The DoD Fresh Program is optional and is an additional distribution channel for spending entitlement dollars along with our three main distribution channels in Minnesota of Regular United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Foods, the Minnesota Rebate Program and Fee-For-Service. However, entitlement dollars that are committed to the DoD program will result in less "money" available and will draw down from the Minnesota Department of Education's state entitlement total to purchase other options with USDA Foods.
No. All bills for produce ordered by schools participating in the DoD program using entitlement dollars are sent to and paid by USDA. However, schools should be aware that the entitlement value of each product ordered through this program includes a service fee of DoD's operational costs in addition to the daily market product costs. Sponsors participating in this program using entitlement dollars can continue to participate until they have expended the entitlement dollars committed to this program for the current school year.
Yes. Food Distribution Program (FDP) requires a minimum allocation of $300. There is also a minimum per order amount of $100.
Entitlement will be allocated using the DoD Fresh survey, under the green "Commodity Survey" tab in Cyber-Linked Interactive Child Nutrition System (CLiCS 1). This survey will open and close in conjunction with the Regular USDA surveys. The current surveys are set up with $1,000 and $1 increments. Sponsors may use one or both increments to allocate the total desired amount.
Example: $50,000 = 50 increments of $1,000 + 0 increments of $1
Example: $2,500 = 2 increments of $1,000 + 500 increments of $1
Example: $500 = 0 increments of $1,000 + 500 increments of $1
Produce orders are placed through the DoD web-based Fresh Fruits and Vegetable Order Receipts System (FFAVORS) and delivered by the DoD contract vendor. For schools that have not previously participated in the DoD program the DoD team will need to set up your school district in their FFAVORS ordering system. To assist in this process, an account setup form will need to be completed providing DoD basic contact information, delivery window and address information for each delivery location. View frequently asked questions about FFAVORS and obtaining an eAuthentication account.
No. The delivery of products ordered through the DoD program are completely separate from the delivery of USDA Foods and will not be handled by regular USDA approved distributors through the current state contracted warehouse. The program utilizes long term contractors and the contracted vendors work under agreements with varying amounts of one-year options based on performance. Contracted vendors submit catalogs weekly and include a wide variety of domestically grown produce items. The item price listed on the catalog in FFAVORS is the final price as nothing is added post transaction.
Yes. Under USDA regulations, foreign products cannot be purchased with entitlement dollars so the program is restricted to domestically grown items.
Contractually with this program, sponsors will at least have one delivery per week and delivery days will be assigned in accordance with the contracted vendor's pre-established routing. A minimum delivery amount of $100 per delivery location site is currently in place but may fluctuate yearly dependent upon DoD's distribution contract. The FFAVORS system requires orders to be submitted no later than three full business days prior to delivery day. Example: for Monday delivery, orders must be placed no later than the previous Tuesday, leaving Wednesday, Thursday and Friday as the mandatory three full business day lead time. Please submit orders on time to alleviate system complications.
Yes, at this time all local items are marked as "LOCAL" highlighted in green on the catalog. The state of origin is also indicated.

Unrealistic cost estimates could make an ambitious NASA space mission to study dark energy no better than ground-based projects, experts warn.
The agency is preparing a call for proposals for the Joint Dark Energy Mission (JDEM), as part of its Beyond Einstein cosmology programme, which was revived after it had been put under review in 2006 for budgetary reasons.
Dark energy is the mysterious force that appears to make up about 70% of the energy density of the cosmos and is causing the expansion of space to speed up.
JDEM's main aim is to measure dark energy's effect through cosmic history, which can be done by studying the universe at ever greater distances to see how its expansion rate has changed.
If successful, the mission could help determine whether the mysterious force is in fact Einstein's cosmological constant - a fixed, 'vacuum' energy of space itself - or something that might vary with time.
While NASA has conceived of JDEM as a 'Probe-class' mission costing roughly $600 million, in 2007 an independent advisory committee put the costs at more than $1 billion, excluding the cost of launching the satellite.
Now, some members of the disbanded committee are worried that NASA may attempt to stick with the original budget. And NASA admits that if none of the proposals can realistically fit within the budget, the project may be subjected to further reviews and other projects may take higher priority.
"Either this will lead to an inferior mission or else it will lead to a great delay," says Joel Primack, a physicist at the University of California, Santa Cruz, who served on the advisory committee. "It is very much a possibility that it would result in cancellation of the whole thing."

The advisory committee, part of the US National Academies, was charged with reviewing NASA's Beyond Einstein programme. It picked JDEM as a high-priority project, but it found the mission would cost in excess of $1 billion.
The committee used a different technique than NASA does to estimate costs - one that incorporated information on the total budgets of past missions and how their original cost estimates ballooned over time.
"Space projects tend to overrun," says committee chair Charles Kennel of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in San Diego, California, US. "We thought that these cost estimates would give the decision-makers a sort of plus-or-minus 10% range for what the cost would end up being."
JDEM aims to measure dark energy parameters with 1% precision. But former committee members say if NASA sticks to its original cost estimate, the mission has little chance of achieving such precision. Instead, JDEM may achieve an accuracy close to that of ground-based telescopes, which are approaching 3% precision.
Tight budget
"You don't recommend a space mission unless you can do better than you can do from the ground," Kennel told New Scientist. The committee recommended the project, but with this revised budget in mind. "We felt if they wanted it, they should pay for it."
NASA recently issued a call for input on the mission - including cost estimates - that cites its original $600 million figure. But it is unclear whether or by how much JDEM's cost cap will change when the official request for mission proposals is issued later this year.
"We will adjust as necessary and as we are able to within available resources," says Jon Morse, director of NASA's astrophysics division in Washington, DC, US. But, he adds: "We believe we have a good indication of how much the mission should cost."
With launch costs, NASA hopes the total budget for JDEM will fall under $1 billion. But if JDEM looks to be more expensive, the project may have to be postponed until it can be evaluated and ranked in an upcoming decadal review of astronomy and astrophysics projects, he said. Morse added that NASA's budget will not support such a large mission until after the James Webb Space Telescope launches in 2013.
No guarantees
NASA has funded studies of three different mission concepts that are the primary candidates for a future JDEM telescope. All have been planning for a budget of about $600 million. "We will make a mission that will work within whatever NASA says is the cost cap," says astronomer Tod Lauer of the National Optical Astronomy Observatory in Tucson, Arizona, US.
Lauer, who serves as principal investigator for the JDEM candidate mission DESTINY, adds that the National Academies committee made some errors in estimating DESTINY's total cost.
JDEM was originally planned to start in 2009. But NASA's budget for that year is still undecided, so it is unclear what will happen with the mission. Also unclear is how much the US Department of Energy, which will partner with NASA on this project, will contribute.
"We're hoping to have a chance to propose [a mission], but there's no guarantee in any of this," Lauer told New Scientist. "We'll just have to see how it shakes out."

MEGA Intra-Aortic Balloon Offers Small 8 Fr. Shaft
MEGA Intra-Aortic Balloon Offers Small 8 Fr. Shaft
October 22, 2009
MAQUET Cardiovascular LLC offers the MEGA 8 Fr. 50 cc intra-aortic balloon (IAB) catheter.
The company said it is the world's first 50 cc IAB with a true 8 Fr. shaft, and the MEGA has a smaller insertion point than traditional 50 cc IABs and offers additional blood volume displacement for intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation. MEGA, compared to 40 cc IABs, delivers 25 percent more blood volume displacement and provides improved unloading and augmentation
When the IAB inserted into the patient's aorta counterpulsates with the heart, it augments coronary blood flow to increase myocardial oxygen supply and decrease myocardial oxygen demand.

"I was working as a truck driver when I took my first Welding course at Eastfield," says Bruce Parramore.
"I had gotten interested in welding when I built a go-cart as a home project and had decided I'd like to learn how to weld better," the Eastfield College alum says. "But after I took that first welding class — after just four months — I had learned enough that I was able to get a job in my company's welding department. Now I'm a welder instead of a truck driver."

Q.: What suggestions do you have for disciplining a 7-year-old girl who argues with every single thing her parents say? We don't try to reason with her and we frequently say "Because I said so," but she seems absolutely incapable of doing what we tell her to do. This is driving us to the brink of insanity!
A.: I have a solution. But first, children argue because parents explain. This is slightly different from trying to reason with a child, so bear with me.
Today's parents — and of course I speak generally — feel some need to be egalitarian with their children. One unconscious symptom of this is the habit many parents have of stooping down to child-level when they give instructions. The position suggests that parent and child are peers. It also looks as if the parent is pleading with the child as opposed to speaking authoritatively. Why do parents do this? Because parenting "experts" have said that is the right and proper position from which to address children. I say it's nothing short of stupid. To properly claim your natural authority over your child, you must look and act the part.
A second symptom is the tendency of today's parents to give passive instructions along with explanations, as in (after stooping and grabbing one's knees), "Honey, it would really be helpful if you would stop what you're doing and pick these toys up for Mommy so I can vacuum this room." In this example, the instruction isn't an instruction at all. It's a suggestion.
Furthermore, the explanation invites push-back, also known as argument.
Train yourself to give instructions (a) from an upright, authoritative position and (b) without explanations, as in, "I want you to pick up these toys and move them to another room." When the child whines, "But why?" answer with "Because I said so." Not "frequently," but every single time. Calmly, mind you, as if you're answering "What's the weather like outside?" And then turn and walk away. Pull the plug on the power struggle.
As for your daughter's arguing, she's going to need a consequence to help her remember the new way of doing things. Tell her that a parenting expert told you that arguing means she's too tired to remember her manners, and so every time she argues during the day, she has to go to bed 30 minutes earlier that evening. Enforce this dispassionately, and within a couple of weeks, you should be further back from the brink of insanity.

Boulder, CO, USA (PRWEB) July 09, 2014
The Geological Society of America will recognize outstanding scientific achievements and distinguished service to the profession at its 2014 Annual Meeting & Exposition in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. GSA's highest honors, the Penrose Medal, the Arthur L. Day Medal, and the Young Scientist Award (Donath Medal) will be received by Susan W. Kieffer of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Lisa Tauxe of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography–UC San Diego, and Francis A Macdonald of Harvard University, respectively.
These awards and other honors will be celebrated at the GSA Annual Meeting; members of the media are cordially invited to attend:
Susan W. Kieffer, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, has been named GSA's Penrose Medalist in recognition of her many seminal research contributions to a broad cross section of geosciences. Kieffer's interests in geological physics include planetary sciences, geological fluid dynamics–including geothermal, epithermal, and volcanic environments, solid-state geophysics and mineral thermodynamics, shock wave physics, and river hydraulics and river environments. Nominator Stephen Marshak noted that her work continues to influence research directions, and "in keeping with her long standing priority that science be made accessible to the public," she is reaching out to broader audiences through her work on the National Research Council and her writing for non-expert audiences. Kieffer was elected a Fellow of The Geological Society of America in 1982. She was awarded GSA's prestigious Day Medal in 1992.
Lisa Tauxe, Scripps Institution of Oceanography–University of California, San Diego, has been awarded the Arthur L. Day Medal for outstanding distinction in contributing to geologic knowledge through the application of physics and chemistry to the solution of geologic problems. Nominator Neil Opdyke credits Tauxe as having "established at Scripps one of the premier paleomagnetics research facilities in the world." Supporter Kenneth Kodama adds that, "she has worked to provide a better understanding of the history and behavior of the Earth's magnetic field through geologic time." Tauxe was elected a Fellow of The Geological Society of America in 2003.
Francis A. Macdonald, Harvard University has earned the Young Scientist Award (Donath Medal) and a cash prize of US$10,000 for outstanding achievement in contributing to geologic knowledge through original research that marks a major advance in the earth sciences. Francis' Ph.D. research entailed mapping, stratigraphic synthesis, and chemostratigraphy in three disparate, structurally complex or poorly understood late Proterozoic sedimentary successions. Nominator Galen Halverson writes that in that and subsequent research, Macdonald "has demonstrated an uncanny ability to identify previously poorly mapped regions that are critical for developing and testing lofty tectonic and paleoclimatic models." At a young age, Macdonald has already made several fundamental contributions across multiple fields, including solid earth geophysics to climatology and glaciology to geochemistry and paleobiology.

WASHINGTON—The U.S. Food and Drug Administration delayed a decision on the approval of Roche's anemia drug Mircera amid increased scrutiny of the safety of erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs).
The FDA delay was announced May 18, but three days later Roche said the agency issued an "approvable letter" for Mircera for anemia treatment in chronic kidney disease patient on dialysis and not on dialysis. That means the drug could be approved if certain conditions and questions were addressed. Roche did not elaborate on the specifics.
Mircera differs from existing ESAs, such as Amgen's Aranesp and Epogen and Johnson & Johnson's Procrit, in that it is designed to be given in longer-lasting monthly doses rather than weekly doses.
"Today's announcement is good news for us as it confirms our confidence in Mircera," William Burns, CEO of Roche's pharmaceutical division, said in a statement. "We expect no further clinical trials being required prior to approval."
On March 9, the FDA issued a public health advisory that outlined new safety information, which included updated product labeling for ESAs. The FDA pointed to recent studies with ESAs that have shown a higher chance of serious and life-threatening side effects and a greater number of deaths in patients treated with ESAs.
Several recent studies have shown ESAs can have adverse effects in treating cancer patients on chemotherapy by causing heart problems, blood clots and making the cancer worse. That prompted an FDA advisory committee to recommended new restrictions in treating anemia from chemotherapy. A similar panel is expected to meet in the fall to discuss the drug's application in patients with kidney disease.

Why is RV rated PG?
Official MPAA Rating: RV is rated PG for for crude humor, innuendo and language.
Family life has some sore points for Bob Munro. Not only do his teenagers infringe on his intimate time with his wife, but they also resort to rude name-calling and condescending attitudes with their dad. A girl is accused of a rude hand gesture but nothing is seen. At a party, one teen throws pop into the face of an adult. Later a man feigns an attempt to hit a teenager with a car. After a hard day at work, a man requests a drink with Prozac. Men discuss chasing other men's wives. Jokes in the film revolve around fecal matter, animal organs, mild sexual innuendo and prostitution as a profession. The script includes incidences of dangerous situations played for humor. The family narrowly misses a head-on collision with a semi truck. A man clings to the front of a rolling RV. Several characters fall down in a rushing stream. A man rides a bike downhill through a forest. A man roughly embraces another character. A character intentionally throws a man to the ground. In the film, several female characters expose their cleavage in tight tops. A man worries about his responsibilities and as a result, he is dishonest with others. Numerous terms of deity and some other profanities are used.

A statewide initiative to increase the number of child welfare caseworkers could mean up to 15 new employees for Jeffco's Human Services Department.
The state legislature approved $6 million this year to add 100 child welfare caseworkers across Colorado. The funds come with a required 10 percent match from counties; Jeffco would need to put up $100,000 to create the 15 positions.
The county commissioners gave initial approval for spending the $100,000 during their May 12 staff briefings.
The Foothills Park and Recreation District is accepting applications for an upcoming vacancy on its board of directors.
Board member Terri Maulik is set to resign her Ward 5 seat after the May 26 board meeting. Maulik and her family are planning to move to Parker by month's end.
Citing a lack of action by the state legislature, the Littleton City Council has approved its own version of a construction-defects law.
Several bills aimed at reforming the state law — which developers blame for a dearth of condo construction — failed in this year's legislative session.
A suspect in a Sheridan homicide was arrested near West Hampden Avenue and South Wadsworth Boulevard on Wednesday morning.
Nicholas Benhmida, 39, was wanted in connection with a homicide in Sheridan on Tuesday morning. He was arrested by Jeffco deputies without incident Wednesday.
A bank robbery suspect who barricaded himself in the Essex House Motel in Littleton after shooting an FBI agent on Friday afternoon died from a self-inflicted gunshot during the ensuing standoff.
The suspect was identified by the Arapahoe County coroner's office as Jesus Emmanuel Avila, 19. The FBI said in an interview with AP that Avila was wanted in connection with a series of bank robberies in the metro area committed by the "Longhorn Bandit." The robber often wore a University of Texas Longhorns baseball hat.
For two days this weekend, South Jeffco and Littleton will celebrate our country's independence with music, food and prodigious pyrotechnics.
Foothills Park and Recreation's Red, White & You kicks off the Fourth of July weekend at 5 p.m. Friday. The festival is staying true to what attendees have enjoyed in the past, said Regina Smith, arts director for Foothills.
"We're really sticking with the same formula that has been working well, since we keep hearing how much everyone from the community loves it," Smith said.
Area resident Cindy Elliott was so excited about Bike to Work Day that she doubled the length of her morning commute on June 24.
"This is the perfect morning for a ride," said Elliott, who had stopped at a breakfast station on the Mary Carter Greenway near West Belleview Avenue and Prince Street on the way to her job in Highlands Ranch. "We're riding 7 miles this morning. Usually my commute is a 3-mile trip, but we decided to go for a longer ride since it's Bike to Work Day."
Dozens of students from True Dance Academy who packed a Jeffco hearing room last week erupted in cheers when a rezoning request for the school was approved on a 3-0 vote by the county commissioners.
The dance studio, at 8950 W. Quincy Ave. across the street from the federal prison, needed the rezoning to continue operating at the location.
"It's a relief. I mean, this has been on going for a while, so it's a huge relief," said owner Shelly Trujillo. "All the kids were celebrating at the next rehearsal after the hearing."
Littleton City Manager Michael Penny recently elected to the board of directors of the Colorado Municipal League.
Penny was elected by municipal officials from across the state at the CML's annual meeting June 16-19. The CML represents 268 cities and town across the state in policy affairs and with advocacy. The nonprofit also provides resources to cities and towns on various issues.
Jeffco school board member Jill Fellman has decided not to run for re-election this fall, saying she wants to make her family a priority.

PCRM Informs Governors of Financial Costs of Diabetes
America's growing diabetes epidemic is taking its toll in more ways than one: We are paying the price of poor nutrition with not only deteriorating health but with dramatically rising health care costs. PCRM wrote to the governors of several states to spread awareness that a low-fat vegan diet can greatly reduce the cost of diabetes-related medications.
While Dr. Neal Barnard is touring the country to introduce people to his life-saving message, PCRM wants the governor of each state Dr. Barnard visits to learn about the program, too. The letters from PCRM underscore that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention forecasts that one in three children born in recent years will develop diabetes within their lifetime, which could become a crippling burden for the health care system unless changes are implemented now.
A typical medication regimen costs between $2,000 and $6,000 per person annually, depending on the medications used. Medical examinations and treatments, diagnostic tests, supplies, time lost from work, and disability expenditures add additional costs. Multiplying this annual individual cost by the number of Americans currently diagnosed with the disease (approximately 15 million) shows the scope of the financial problem.
However, the new dietary approach outlined in Dr. Neal Barnard's Program for Reversing Diabetes has effects similar to those of medications commonly used in diabetes treatment but without their costs. The book is based on a 2006 study funded by the National Institutes of Health, which found that a low-fat vegan diet treats type 2 diabetes more effectively than a standard diabetes diet and may be more effective than single-agent therapy with oral diabetes drugs.
PCRM's analysis found that this sort of diet change can help a typical person with diabetes reduce medication costs by anywhere from about $130 to over $3,000 annually, depending on the types of medications used and the degree of success achieved with diet. PCRM has asked each governor to "encourage schools and businesses to offer this sort of meal plan as an option for those who may wish to choose it, and to encourage individuals and families to understand the potential benefits they and their children might achieve from healthful diet choices."
For more information on Dr. Barnard's program, please visit PCRM.org/Diabetes.

Best of Egypt
Hi, I'm looking at the Best of Egypt tour and was wondering if any one has been on it? I was wanting to go on a slightly longer, more temple and archaeology crazy tour but unfortunately the ones I was looking at have been cancelled. If anyone has been on it how was it? How much time did you get at temples? Was there a chance to see King Tut's tomb (though I see it's not included in the tour)?

It depends on the temple itself, varying from about 2 hours at Abu Simbel to 1 hour at the lesser temples. While this may seem short,there is much to see and there is a lot of travel required to get from place to place.

The Best of Egypt tour included a guided tour of the Valley of Kings. You should have about 1-2 hours in the Valley of Kings so you'll be able to purchase a ticket and line-up to see King Tut. The entrance ticket includes entrance to three tombs (not King Tut's). There are many interesting tombs to see if you research ahead of your visit.

Re: Best of Egypt
Just of note - We didnt bother with King Tuts tomb as our guide advised us to visit the bigger much more impressive and elaborate tombs in the Valley, also you have to pay extra for Tut and also all the artefacts have all been removed and are in the Cairo museum - which we did visit and that was amazing.
However if your a Tut fan by all means ignore this advice.

SCIENTISTS may not after all have to rely on ceramic oxides for high-temperature superconductors in future. Until now, researchers believed that these were the only suitable materials, but Japanese chemists at the University of Tokyo have now made a compound that remains superconducting up to a critical temperature (Tc) of 11.4 kelvin at normal pressures. The compound is organic.
The critical temperature may not seem very impressive when compared to ceramic compounds, but it is the highest yet for an organic superconductor. The critical temperatures that researchers had previously obtained were between 2 and 8 K.
The new compound, whose chemical formula is represented as k-(BEDT-TTF)2Cu(NCS)2, belongs to a class of materials known as organic radical-cation salts. The molecules in the compound comprise an organic, positively charged radical-cation. This has an unpaired electron, combined with a negative anion. The cation consists of flat rings of alternating single and double bonds ...

Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) 4500M: The graphics core of the Intel GL40 and GS40 chipset features a slower clocked GMA 4500MHD (400 versus 533 MHz). Because of the slower core speed, full Blu-Ray Logo support is not given and the gaming performance is a bit worse.
Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.
» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.
Intel Core 2 Duo: This is the Core Duo and Core Solo successor with a longer pipeline and 5-20% more speed without more power consumption. As an addition to the Core Duo design there exists a fourth decoder, an amplified SSE-unit and an additional arithmetical logical unit (ALU).
The Core 2 Duo for laptops is identical to the desktop Core 2 Duo processors but the notebook-processors work with lower voltages (0.95 to 1188 Volt) and a lower Frontside bus clock (1066 vs 667 MHz). The performance of equally clocked notebooks is 20-25% lower than Desktop PCs because of the lower Frontside bus clock and the slower hard disks.
Power efficient low voltage processor based on the Penryn 3M core that features all Penryn functions like Virtualization and Trusted Execution.

14.0": 14 inch display size is a mixture between the small formats of subnotebooks and the 15 inch standard display. The reason why so many people like displays with medium size is, that this size is not exhausting for the eyes, does not need too much energy and the laptops can be kept quite compact.» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.
2.4 kg: This notebook is lighter than the average of all notebooks. It is too heavy for sub-notebooks. 14 inch displays are normal for this class of weight.

How is reality manufactured? The idea of social construction has become a commonplace of much social research, yet precisely what is constructed, and how, and even what constructionism means, is often unclear or taken for granted. In this major work, Jonathan Potter offers a fascinating tour of the central themes raised by these questions.
Representing Reality overviews the different traditions in constructionist thought. Points are illustrated throughout with varied and engaging examples taken from newspaper stories, relationship counselling sessions, accounts of the paranormal, social workers' assessments of violent parents, informal talk between programme makers, political arguments and everyday conversations. Ranging across the social and human sciences, this book provides a lucid introduction to several key strands of work that have overturned the way we think about facts and descriptions, including: the sociology of scientific knowledge; conversation analysis and ethnomethodology; and semiotics, post-structuralism and postmodernism.

Author/Artist Review
Located in: Texas
Submitted: June 14, 2005
Tell us a little about yourself. I was born and raised in the inner city in Washington, DC. Reading was a mental escape for me from what transpired around me in my neighborhood. It was a way to travel, see the world and have adventures without ever having to leave our cramped little apartment. My mother expected me to be a great speaker some day, so she trained me to speak with purpose and clarity. She was an avid reader and it rubbed off on me. And the Lord placed deep within me, at an early age, the desire to write and communicate the basic principles of His Word using writing and public speaking as tools.
What was your motivation behind this project? I have a burning desire from the Lord, to help change the image that the Body of Christ has of itself, and of the things of God, from a "World View" to a "Word View". And to help and encourage Believers in learning how to be 'effective'in their day to day battles..
What do you hope folks will gain from this project? It is our desire that believers and unbelievers alike gain a better understanding of the reality of the spiritual realm around us. Believers, from the stand point of understanding that we are NOT alone. That the Lord has assigned angels that are actively fighting not only 'for' us, but also 'with us' against the forces of darkness. And for unbelievers to realize that they are a hunted species, pursued relentlessly and ruthlessly by Satan and his minions and that the 'only' true ark of safety is in the arms of the Lord Jesus Christ, surrounded by His power.
Who are your influences, sources of inspiration or favorite authors / artists? Since I was 7 years old, I have been an avid reader. Beginning with the Bible and the books of Daniel and Revelation, I would read them over and over. Later I discovered fiction and was fascinated with authors' use of words. I would take the "writers tests" included in Writer's Digest Magazine and fancy that 'one day'.
Anything else you'd like readers / listeners to know: That we love them, thank the Lord for them, and we appreciate them reading our book. May it be as much of an inspiration for them to read, as it was for me to write. God bless you. (Please pray for us because I have begun working on the sequel and two companion books for 'Dark Things.')

I gave a score of 8 for helpfulness of staff mainly for the reason that the office is opened for a short period of time in the day.However,I must add that the staff were friendly and helpful when I reported a possible fault on the cooker and it was attended to immediately.
A problem on arrival with our original choice of The Haywain was satisfactorily resolved and we stayed instead in The Dovecote. Although it was lovely and suited our needs there was an issue regarding the Aga in that the rooms were exceptionally warm and there was no warning on any of the taps to indicate that the water was scalding hot. Some of the bedroom furniture was a little too 'rustic' in that drawers/doors were difficult to open. Some of the wall plugs were rather loosely fitted. All in all though a lovely place to stay and we had an enjoyable family holiday
We've been to Otter Falls almost a dozen times over the years, it is peaceful and a great place to unwind and spend some quality time.
The dog seems to like it too...
A brilliant time and can highly recommend Otter falls as a tranquil and peaceful place to stay. Gorgeous surroundings with lots of wildlife. Accommodation is to a high standard. The staff are friendly and helpful and the food at the Tickled trout is fantastic.
Beautiful location. Our lodge was in need of updating in as much as it could do with a modern cooker, microwave and toaster.
The hot water had a mind of its own and was inconsistent when showering.
The lodge also needed a thorough clean, lots of dust and cobwebs higher up and around windows.
When all's said and done though, it's a lovely place to relax.
A wonderful tranquil setting. Staff extremely helpful. Lovely bistro. Very comfortable lodge, exceptionally clean and tidy. One of the best places and lodges we have stayed in.
Beautiful place, ideal for a quiet holiday set in wonderful countryside. Great walks from the doorstep, ideal if you are taking a dog.
Lovely Break. Beautiful surroundings.
Great place not far away from London. Peaceful and tranquility and the nature on the doorstep.
Lovely place and surroundings. Just a shame the cottage needed work. Also aga could not be turned off but expected to pay for it
A wonderful time was had by all. The staff are all really friendly and helpful, and nothing too much trouble. Definitely going back again in the future.
excellent location and value for money
We had a wonderful stay at Otter Falls and would highly recommend it.
The lakeside lodge we stayed in was lovely, well equipped with comfy sofas and great views of the lake. The swimming pool was perfect for my two boys (1 and 3) and was always clean. The playground was easy to get to and great for entertaining the kids without having to travel miles. Would definelty go here again.

Ferdinand Raimund was born in Mariahilf, in outer Vienna, on 1st June 1790. An ambitious self-educated man, he began his career as an actor, appearing on many European stages. Even after he became famous as a playwright he often acted roles in his own plays. He began writing casually, revising scripts, until encouraged by friends to write his own plays. Raimund contributed eight well-known comedies to the Viennese Popular Theater (Wiener Volkstheater). Its best-known representatives are Raimund and his younger rival, the more satirical and realistic Johann Nepomuk Nestroy (1801-1862). The fanciful comedies of Raimund and Nestroy show influences of folk theater, Italian commedia dell'arte
