lactose intolerance
Examples of lactose intolerance in the following topics:
Lactose Intolerance
- Analyze lactose intolerance and tolerance Lactose intolerance is the inability to digest lactose, a sugar found in milk, due to a lack of the enzyme lactase.
- Individuals may be lactose intolerant to varying degrees, depending on the severity of these symptoms.
- Lactose intolerant individuals have insufficient levels of lactase, the enzyme that metabolizes lactose into glucose and galactose, in their digestive system .
- However, those living among societies that are largely lactose-tolerant may find lactose intolerance troublesome.
- About 44% of lactose intolerant women regain the ability to digest lactose during pregnancy.
- lactose intolerance (noun) the inability to fully metabolize lactose.
- lactase (noun) a β-galactosidase enzyme that is involved in the hydrolysis of the disaccharide lactose into constituent galactose and glucose monomers.
- lactose (noun) the disaccharide sugar of milk and dairy products, C12H22O11, (a product of glucose and galactose) used as a food and in medicinal compounds.
Chemical Digestion of Carbohydrates, Proteins, Lipids, and Nucleic Acids
- Lactase is an enzyme that breaks down the disaccharide lactose into its component parts, glucose and galactose, which can also be absorbed by the small intestine.
- This condition is commonly known as lactose intolerance.
- lactose intolerance (noun) the inability to fully metabolize lactose.
Galactosemia and Glycogen Storage Disease
- The only treatment for classic galactosemia is eliminating lactose and galactose from the diet.
- Although the sugar and lactose metabolizes to galactose, galactosemia is not related to and should not be confused with lactose intolerance.
- The only treatment for classic galactosemia is eliminating lactose and galactose from the diet.
- Galactosemia is sometimes confused with lactose intolerance, but galactosemia is a more serious condition.
- Lactose intolerant individuals have an acquired or inherited shortage of the enzyme lactase, and experience abdominal pains after ingesting dairy products, but no long-term effects.
Malabsorption of Nutrients
- Researchers then discovered that lactose malabsorption is actually the norm for most populations in the world.
- Mucosal abnormalities (e.g. celiac disease , cows' milk intolerance, soy milk intolerance, and fructose malabsorption) may lead to malabsorption.
- Lactase deficiency, which prevents the breakdown of lactose, is a common cause of malabsorption.
- For example, patients may be put on a gluten-free diet for celiac disease or taught lactose avoidance for lactose intolerance.
Digestive Processes of the Large Intestine
- Carbohydrates requiring bacterial assistance in digestion include: certain starches fiber oligosaccharides and sugars like lactose (in the case of lactose intolerance) and sugar alcohols mucus produced by the gut various proteins Bacteria turn carbohydrates they ferment into short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) by a form of fermentation called saccharolytic fermentation.
Absorption of Monosaccharides, Amino Acids, Dipeptides, Tripeptides, Lipids, Electrolytes, Vitamins, and Water
- The lactase enzyme breaks down lactose, milk sugar.
- Lactase is absent in most adult humans and for them lactose, like most polysaccharides, are not digested in the small intestine.
Heart Failure
- Heart failure can cause a number of symptoms including shortness of breath, leg swelling, and exercise intolerance.
- Heart failure can cause a number of symptoms including shortness of breath, leg swelling, and exercise intolerance as shown in .
Digestive Processes of the Small Intestine
- Lactase is absent in most adult humans and for them lactose, like most poly-saccharides, is not digested in the small intestine.
Kidney Transplant
- Prednisolone suppresses the immune system, but its long-term use at high doses causes a multitude of side effects, including glucose intolerance and diabetes, weight gain, osteoporosis, muscle weakness, hypercholesterolemia, and cataract formation.
Hair and Hormones
- Low levels of SHBG in men and non-pregnant women are also correlated with glucose intolerance and diabetes risk, though this correlation disappears during pregnancy.

I prefer this to your recent upload as it seems more natural. The image does appear to be dished though in the middle and the use of the pinch filter in Photoshop might address this. I do not think it is oversaturated but the green in the foreground is a little bright for me and may benefit from a little burning in - what spectacular weather conditions - not like this at the moment!

X-ray camera provides more detailed images for dentists
Dentists and their patients will soon benefit from a tiny high-resolution X-ray camera that has been developed by Swedish engineers.
The camera is claimed to take X-ray pictures that are more detailed and with a higher contrast than the conventional X-ray machines widely used by dentists today.
The camera itself was designed by the Scint-X company, while the key element of it - a scintillator device that converts X-rays to visible light that can then easily be detected by an inexpensive CCD imager - was built by another Swedish outfit, Nanospace.
The new scintillator design overcomes a major issue encountered with conventional unstructured scintillator plates. While the visible light created through X-ray absorption spreads on its way through the crystal in such plates, the new scintillator concept channels the light on its way to the CCD camera instead.
To build the new scintillator, narrow channels were etched into silicon to make a matrix that is then filled with a Thallium-doped Cesium Iodide scintillator material. When X-rays enter those channels, they are converted into green light, which is then reflected by the channel sidewalls so that it does not leave the channel. Thus, the spreading of light that would lead to crosstalk between neighbouring pixels on the CCD imaging chip is avoided.
Another important advantage of the X-ray unit itself is that it is much thinner than today's models, making the procedure of inserting it into the patient's mouth a more comfortable one.
Scint-X claims that the camera also has potential for use in space. The Swedish Space Corporation is planning to use the camera aboard a rocket with a planned launched in May 2011 by ESA.
'Our camera provides a resolution that is better than five microns and will be used to study the melting and solidification of metals when producing exotic materials in weightlessness,' explained Per Wiklund of Scint-X.

Play peta2's Game: Pokémon Black and Blue
Posted October 8, 2012 by Diana Mendoza
How would you like to be locked in a tiny space and let out only by your "trainer," who forces you to fight your friends? Sounds pretty awful, right? Well, strangely, this is the concept of one of the most popular games out there, and even weirder, these cuddly, little guys have a huge online fan base that loves them—especially the cute red-cheeked "champion," Pikachu. That's right—we're talking about Pokémon!
Help peta2 get freedom for the Pokémon in peta2's new game, Pokémon Black and Blue.
Many of us at peta2 grew up playing and watching Pokémon, and we love that the Pokémon Black and White series has started talking about "Pokémon rights" but with all that talk the Pokémon are still imprisoned at the end of the day. So in our lighthearted parody game we poke fun at the original Pokémon games (remember we <3 Pokémon, too), but we also give the Pokémon the platform they should have had in Black and White, and hope people think about how we treat animals in the real world.
Just like dogs and other animals, Pokèmon have unique personalities and want to be loved and play with their friends, not be forced to fight them. Never thought about it that way, huh?
Check out the game now and let us know what you think!

Are you serious? PETA, you are attacking innocent video games and cartoons saying "IT PROMOTES ANIMAL CRUELTY!!" When there are actual animals out there, dying, suffering, and being abused. I hate PETA so much.

urgggg look stuff up peta2, the man/guy who made pokemon didn't make they die, or want kids to hurt or kill, i've played most of the games and (ok a few 'pokemon deaths") you heal your pokemon, and raise them, yes it's 'fighting' but come on….and it's a game, it's not real!! you put people off!

I like 'group hug' attack. Pikachū gave a loving embrace. Haha. That's the way to fight!
I think the parody is fair enough. I mean, the series has had to get into that a few times, notably in the first film when myutsū took the position that pocket monsters should not interact with humans because he was abused.
I like Plasma-dan. But I never really played the Fifth Generation games anyway. :d

Born and bred in Britain. I've always lived with animals and loved finding out new information/ caring about them. I currently do eat meat although I am not a huge lover and I do intend on going vegetarian when I'm older. I've always wanted to support charities and I am the head fund raiser at my school. I am looking forward to supporting Peta and becoming a member of their Street Team!
I am 13 years old and joined the street team June 2015. I am a vegetarian. I have a passion for working to help save animals. I love my family and my 2 pugs, Daisy and Diesel. I plan to work for Peta or Mercy For Animals someday because they helped me become a vegetarian and begin a whole new life of having common sense towards all animals.
Just living, protecting animals as I go about it. Strong morals,rights for every living thing.

Logan Mankins on his first game back: ''I survived . . . I didn't get anyone killed out there.'' - 0 Comments
Pro Bowl Logan Mankins was none the worse for wear after playing in his first few offensive series since having reconstructive right knee surgery during the offseason.
''I survived,'' he said with a smile. ''I didn't get anyone killed out there. That's always a good thing.''
Mankins said he was on a play-limit, so he was taken out mid-series after roughly 10 plays. But he said his knee felt fine. As for the offensive line, that's a different story. It's not fun watching Tom Brady get smacked around.

A year after lavish funeral, Savile myth in ruins
When Savile died, Prince Charles' office said the heir to the throne and his wife "were saddened to hear of Jimmy Savile's death."
The late DJ boasted of his ties to powerful people, including Prince Charles, the late Princess Diana and former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, whom he visited at her country retreat.
His connections may have helped shield him from criticism. Several young people accused Savile of abuse while he was alive, and he was questioned by police, but no charges were laid - and no newspaper ever printed the allegations.
Now, police are investigating claims of abuse from some 300 people who have come forward since the scandal exploded when allegations about Savile were broadcast in a TV documentary in early October. And police are facing investigation themselves for their failure to act sooner.
Charles' Clarence House office says the prince's relationship with Savile was solely a result of their shared charity work.
"If there's a heaven, he'll be laughing now if he's got time," fellow DJ Tony Prince said at the funeral. "Because if there is a heaven, he'll be introducing Elvis on the clouds."
Younger DJs mentored by Savile were out in force at the memorial, and remembered the flamboyant star fondly. One, Dave Eager, wore a bright yellow sweat shirt saying "Jimmy's Eager Helper."
"Everyone who knew Jimmy knows it was a life-changing experience," he said.
Last month, Eager told The Sun newspaper that he was "completely and utterly gobsmacked" by the allegations against Savile, and felt guilty about failing to stop the abuse.
"You feel traumatized and sorry for the people abused by Jimmy but equally you think, `Why the bloody hell didn't we see something?'" he said.
Savile's carefully crafted myth didn't outlive him by long, and he has not rested in peace. His family has had the star's gravestone destroyed in response to public outrage. This week his nephew backed calls to exhume and cremate Savile's body out of respect to other bereaved families.
Of all the words spoken at the funeral a year ago, one comment now sounds prophetic. "None of us really knew the real Jimmy," fellow DJ Mike Read said. "Maybe he didn't even know himself."

Excellent tour. Guide was very good.
It was a nice trip with a good guide.
Trip was interesting, but the Alkmaar was too crowded.
Alkmaar is a beautiful village and time there was extremely short. Due to the crowds that arrived prior to our tour bus it was difficult to see much. I would recommend the tour getting started earlier, enabling an earlier arrival and maximizing the experience.
The windmill portion of the trip was very informative, especially the ability to freely tour the inside of a working windmill.
The knowlegable guide's soothing voice lulled me to a restful place during the return commute which was great since traffic prohibited our return at the promised time. A rejuvinating nod was able to be captured during the ride back to de Dam which was great preparation for afternoon events. Glad we booked this tour!
Certainly recommend the tour but a massive let down was the womans voice - i know this sounds petty but after 4 hours of broken englsih from the tour guide, it starts to take away from the joys of the tour.
It was great, bus was comfortable and very organized despite the construction in Amsterdam. Will tour with your company again
The Cheese market was interesting but the time there was very short. I injoyed the day though.
Very good but not enough time in alkmaar
Since the cheese market is only open on Fridays, the market was so crowded you really couldn't see anything. I think every tour operator in and around Amsterdam was there. If you get lucky and see your way through the crowd, it was interesting to see how they sell their cheese.
took a canal cruise instead....very interesting and enjoyable.
This was a wonderful side trip. The town was beautiful. Best shopping of the trip. The Schaun Windmills serene and beautiful. The tour guide and driver very good.
We really enjoyed our trip to the cheese market, windmills, and cheese factory although the bus was a bit crowded. As others have pointed out, the cheese market area is quite crowded and it's mostly stage as a tourist attraction, but it is interesting to see. We really enjoyed walking around the town and just wish we would've had more time to do that. The windmill tour was very interesting and the restored windmills in very good condition. We had already seen a cheese making demonstration and had purchased cheese elsewhere so this wasn't as big a draw for us but it was still enjoyable. There are a number of buses leaving in the morning from the same area so it can be busy and get crowded. I encourage you to arrive at least 30 minutes prior to your tour. We would recommend this.
We loved this trip! Alkmaar is a lovely little town and the cheese market is fascinating and fun. Only wish we had more time to explore. Very interesting to learn about the windmills and what they were used for.
I enjoyed this trip but felt it could have been better. Alkmaar is a beautiful little town and enough time isnt allowed for axploring. I feel the trip to the farm at the conclusion(20 mins drive, 40 minute for the visit) could be cut in order to give more time at Alkmaar. Cheese is available in abundance for purchase and taste everywhere, I felt the farm visit was really unncecessary. Our guide was excellent, she probably made up for the shortfall
An interested trip that I am glad I signed up! We saw how cheese auction took place and it was really interesting to see so many cheeses been moved around during the auction. The windmills are beautiful too!
The trip was very good, particularly the amount of time at the market in Alkmaar (though a better explanation would have helped) and the visit to the windmill. However, we were very disappointed in the guide. We subsequently learned that several of the things he told us were not true. First and foremost, he said that we should not buy cheese at the market -- big mistake. Not only was it better there than at the "cheese farm" we stopped at (really a shop with no real opportunity to see how the cheese was being made), it was cheaper at the stalls in Alkmaar than in the shop we were taken to visit. Second, he made a big point that we should expect to pay 30 cents to use essentially every rest room throughout Holland. In our week there we never once had to pay! First and foremost, a guide should be accurate. Massimo was not. And then he made a blatant appeal for tips at the end of the tour.
The trip was very worthwhile and seeing the Netherlands county was wonderful. It would have been even better if lunch was included so for anyone contemplating this very worthwhile trip, take enough money to purchase something to eat. The windmills where particularly interesting and the history talk (short) very informative.
This was a very good tour. My only disappointment was that the market was crowded so I couldn't see the market square as well as hoped.
frank a
A nice excursion, very interesting.
great tour guide, she was amazing, speaking in english, german, french, and spanish. Caotic in getting on the bus initially (on Damrak) at the tour facility.
Good half day trip. The market is interesting to see, although extremely crowed with tourist since it is only held one day a week. plenty of good Dutch food booths to sample local fare.
Excellent guide and tour however there were huge crowds at the cheese market so that made it somewhat difficult to enjoy. It was more fun at Alkmaar to step away from the crowds and explore the side streets of the town for a little while. There was an extra charge at the Schermerhorn Windmill of €3 per person. It seems like this should be included in the price of the tour because there is not much to do at this stop if you don't pay the €3 to go inside. However going inside the windmill is well worth the €3 and was a highlight of our trip.
The stop at the cheese maker was interesting however it was not really a scenic area and was mainly a sales pitch to buy some of their cheeses. We found that the lowest price on cheese was available earlier in the tour from vendors along the streets of the Alkmaar market. If you want to buy Dutch cheese for the best price I would recommend buying from the street vendors in Alkmaar. The cheese available from the cheese maker is the same brand that is sold all over in shops throughout Amsterdam.
If you have time, the cheese market is quite a nice place to visit. The atmosphere was really nice.

Excellent Value for money. Cheese Market is amazing and Alkmaar is worth visiting even otherwise. Guide was very good. Although Windmill visit may not be of interest to all people.
Paul L
United Kingdom
We attended the last market of the season at Alkmaar, September 4th. For visitors this is a fascinating sight. There are excellent explanations in many languages. Also allows great opportunities to take photographs. The working windmill enables the visitor to understand how people lived. You view a film prior to going to the windmill. You will see the mechanics first hand through a glass floor. This is the third time we have done this trip. I think that says it all.

Building a Linux IPv6 DNS Server
In our IPv6 network, we presented two application servers: Apache as a Web server and VideoLan for video streaming. To test IPv6 name resolution when streaming a video, a user on client node pc5 accesses the video-streaming server on pc3.

IPv6 is becoming a reality. For the next few years, we will need to be able to support both IPv4 and IPv6 on our servers before the complete transition to IPv6 occurs. We need different pieces of the puzzle to achieve a full migration to IPv6, and one essential piece is an IPv6-compliant BIND implementation.

Problems with IPv6 DNS files
This article is interesting. Unfortunately, when I tried to apply the article, I encountered multiple typos in the listing files, which wasted a lot of time. For instance, Listing 1 is missing the closing }; for the options. Listings 3-6 use double-slash comments, which are errors in zone files. The zones "secv6.int" and "secv6.arpa" don't make sense. The lines that start with "IN" are missing significant whitespace. Eventually I gave up on these listings.

text: Sam Vandal - Vision In Leather [Free D/L] by Sam Vandal published on 2012/10/26 13:58:01 +0000 OK so when I first started listening to electronic music, back in the early 90s, long tracks seemed to be the the norm. Acts like Underworld, LFO, Orbital and the Drum Club regularly delivered epic tracks that combined ambient sounds with techno and electronica, tracks that placed the emphasis on taking the listener for a ride, gradually letting the tracks unfold, rather than quick builds and drops. Now don't get me wrong, I love a good drop as much as the next raver, but every now and again it's nice just to take it down a bit and let a track evolve more gradually. So that was my thinking behind this new single. I've always wanted to put together a long track and although this was was a real labour of love with a lot false starts and a crazy amount of studio hours spent on it but it was fun to do. A track like this would probably be seen as commercial suicide normally but fuck it, I'm giving it away so it doesn't count. Anyway it's good to mix things up every now and again. So there you go, Vision In Leather. If you like the sounds then download away, no requests for emails, no requests for likes, just the music. Also if you want the WAV then you can it get here... http://www.mediafire.com/?is8r6u0mcdk759f If you feel inclined to help spread the word then any help sharing is be much appreciated.

- HAMPTON GREENS APARTMENT COMPLEX Authorities say a hash-oil lab in one of the apartments exploded, killing a neighbor.
Eight months ago, an explosion and fire tore through the Hampton Greens apartment complex in Bellevue. It happened at 6:30 in the morning. Among the residents was Nan Campbell, the 87-year-old former mayor of Bellevue. She was the city's first female mayor, elected in 1988.
According to charging documents filed July 22 in US District Court in connection with the explosion, Campbell "was forced to flee the building as a result of the fire, and fell and fractured her pelvis while doing so." Another woman in the building had to "drop out of her third-story window to escape the flames," which resulted in a fractured spine, broken arm, and broken ankle. Yet another woman fractured her leg after leaping from a second-story window to escape. Authorities say the fire began after butane fuel, which was being used to make hash oil, ignited in one of the apartments. Campbell happened to be in a neighboring unit at the time. She was taken to the hospital after her fall, and "she later expired due to complications" from her injuries.
At a press conference on July 22, US Attorney Jenny Durkan announced she was filing federal charges against seven people who allegedly operated hash-oil-manufacturing labs that exploded, including that residential lab in Bellevue. Other explosions cited occurred in a house in Puyallup, a house in Seattle, and an apartment building in Kirkland. Seven suspects face up to 35 years in prison on charges that include endangering human life while manufacturing a controlled substance, maintaining a drug-involved premises, and manufacturing hash oil.

- Venue: Carrasco Lawn Tennis Club - Location: Montevideo, Uruguay- Surface: Outdoor Clay
Uruguay nudged ahead in the tie courtesy of a 6-2, 6-4, 6-3 win for Uruguayan stalwart Marcel Felder and compatriot Ariel Behar, who proved too strong for the Dominican duo of Henry Estrella and Jose Hernandez.
With the tie level after Friday's singles, it was left to Felder and Behar to make the most of home advantage on the outdoor clay courts of the Carrasco Lawn Tennis Club in Montevideo. Much to the home crowd's delight, they secured Saturday's point and put the pressure on the visitors to win both of Sunday's reverse singles matches.
Felder is scheduled to take on Hernandez in the first of Sunday's reverse singles, with Martin Cuevas turning out for the home side in the fifth rubber, against Roberto Cid.
The winner of this tie will go on to a second round meeting with Columbia in April. Columbia, Chile and Ecuador all received byes through round one, with the latter teams destined to meet each other in the second round.

Level sidewalks with some know-how and "elbow grease": The Weekly Fix
By Becky Stager, Home Repair Resource Center
June 26, 2015, 10:50AM
Leveling a sidewalk requires that you adjust the height of neighboring blocks so there is less than 1/4" difference between them. If you decide to tackle the job yourself, recruit some friends to help you. You will need to raise the block up, adjust the bed underneath it (often cutting out tree roots that are lifting the block), and lowering it into place again. You can also hire a professional to level the block or, in some cases, to grind down the high edge. Full story »

Molly O'Neill on Christmas Cookies
People ask me which all-American dish I got the most recipes for in the decade that I traveled across the United States gathering recipes and food stories for One Big Table: A Portrait of American Cooking. Meatloaf? Fried chicken? Macaroni and cheese? Nope. In fact, if I gathered all the recipes for all other American icons together in a single pile, it wouldn't be half as high as the stack of Christmas cookie recipes that I was given.
There were, of course, dozens of variations on butter cookies and cookie press cookies, dozens of secrets to the making and baking of perfect ginger bread people, candy canes, trees and wreathes. But the majority of Christmas cookie recipes are simply special cookies, cookies that take time and a certain touch, cookies whose recipe is passed from generation to generation, cookies that express all that we wish we brought to the holiday kitchen--warmth, generosity and enough white picket fence fantasy to stretch from sea-to-shining-sea.
My mother's French almond cookies are perfect example. There is no reason NOT to make the perfectly crisp almond cookies any time of the year. But my mother who, like many Christmas cookie maniacs, began baking a different batch of cookies the day after Thanksgiving and continued until she ran of storage room in the cold attic, baked these cookies only once a year. They keep well, so were always her first batch. To her six children and 14 grandchildren and great-grandchild, the smells of these confections is as much of the season as Frankincense, pine and myrrh.
When it comes to cookies, Christmas means "special," and "family" and "eat it while you can!" --Molly O'NeillFeatured Recipe: Virginia's French Almond Cookies (Columbus, Ohio) from Molly O'Neill's One Big Table
Virginia O'Neill began making Christmas cookies the day after Thanksgiving and continued making a batch a day until the twentieth of December. "I'd grown up as a single child, raised by a wealthy aunt and uncle who were older and quiet. They had cooks and servants and everything was always perfect. I distinguished myself by preparing dinner on the cook's night off and by baking cookies and pies. I started collecting Christmas cookie recipes in grade school, and even after I married into a different life—my husband was a dashing working man and I had six children—my aunt and uncle expected me to bake. I used to love doing it. Hundreds of intricate, delicate cookies. It was a way of reconciling where I'd come from and what I'd become, I guess. Always use a little less butter than is called for, that is the secret. The French Almond cookies last for a month, if you store them in a tin, with wax paper between the layers."
1/2 pound (2 sticks) lightly salted butter, cut into chunks
1 1/4 cups packed light brown sugar
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
1 tablespoon honey
2 large eggs, well beaten
2 cups ground almonds
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup slivered almonds
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Cream the butter and sugars until smooth. Stir in the honey, eggs, and ground almonds. Combine the flour and baking soda, then add to the butter mixture. Mix well.
Pinch off a piece of dough the size of a walnut (about 2 tablespoons). Roll it between your palms to form a cigar shape. Place on the baking sheet.Repeat, placing the cookies 2 inches apart. Push a slivered almond into the center of each cookie.
Bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes.Immediately transfer to a wire rack to cool. Let the baking sheet cool and reline with parchment before shaping and baking more cookies. Makes about 11 dozen cookies
LaVerne Yost has always been an obsessed home cook, but since retiring, she has had more time to cook, talk about cooking, and eat other people's cooking. She figures that she has traveled about fifty thousand miles in pursuit of fabulous food in the past decade and, sounding a little like Dorothy in Oz, she said that she has yet to find a sweet that can compete with these simple bars that her sister taught her to make "many, many years ago." They are delicious by themselves, or served warm with vanilla ice cream, Greek-style strained yogurt, whipped cream, or custard.
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats (not instant)
One 12-ounce jar seedless black raspberry preserves
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Grease a 9 X 13-inch baking pan.
In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar with a fork. Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt and add to the butter mixture. Stir in the rolled oats.
Press half the batter into the prepared pan. Spread the preserves on top. Crumble the other half of the flour-and-butter mixture over the preserves and bake for 25 minutes.
Allow to cool slightly, then cut into bars.Makes about 24 bars

South Florida's vinyl record stores will open early Saturday morning, on the seventh annual dawning of Record Store Day.
The international event promotes independent record stores and aims to boost their business. The day is highlighted by special releases only available to independent retailers, and re-issues of classic records.
Evan Chern, owner of Yesterday & Today's Records in Miami, says his store experiences a spike in sales that day.
Dave Daniels has lived on-site at his Churchill's Pub in Little Haiti since it opened in 1979. This Monday, his colleague Mr. C announced Daniels finalized a deal to sell what I call Miami's local CBGB.
Last time I interviewed Dave Daniels, he made comments about his pub's kitchen renovations and the pleasantness of a young woman's company, and in between he talked about the local bands his stage helped bolster and the local journalists whose write-ups had done them justice.
While the EDM and light shows were going off Sunday at Ultra, a string quartet at the Gale Hotel in South Beach played alongside a DJ and composer.
Backed by DJ Benji B and composer Grant Windsor, The Deviation String Quartet from London re-interpreted songs by artists like Drake, Sampha and Pepe Braddock.
The concept started in 2011, when Benji was asked to DJ at the London Eye, the big wheel overlooking the Thames River in London.
The jam session at the Penny Lane Music Emporium in Fort Lauderdale is probably one of the few musical gatherings in South Florida where senior citizens and teenagers play out of the same songbook.
About 20 people of all ages stand or sit in a circle, strumming ukuleles. Each of them has one eye on the sheet music, the other on their host, Ty Olopai.
"Beginners, when they pick it up, learn music in a minute," says Olopai.
Ultra Music Festival and Winter Music Conference bring to Miami the beats and bass of electronic dance music, or EDM. But if you don't get what all the noise is about, here we bring you an explainer, and below that, a short tutorial on making the beats so many are crazed for.
1. You start off with a simple four-beat bass drum. This is the basic head-nodding element.
Some people like to flee downtown Miami when the bass hits the town. It does get pretty loud during Ultra, after all. But there's a way to embrace the city and all of its noise.
During Miami Music Week, some earnest, intellect-stimulating events sneak their way through EDM's unruly buzz. Maybe it'll just be you and another bespectacled, mustachioed friend. Maybe you'll run into one of us.
If you wrote a play about road rangers or made a quilt from fallen mattress, or glued together a Fabergé-style egg from pieces of shattered headlights, then for the love of highway please contact us.
Miley Cyrus planted twerking in the national consciousness last year when she shook herself onstage at the MTV Video Music Awards. But since the pop prodigy performed in Miami last weekend, at the AmericanAirlines Arena, she should know the provocative dance was born in this city.
Saturday, the MDC Live Arts series will present the live documentary "The Love Song of R. Buckminster Fuller." It's a live doc because director Sam Green will live narrate the presentation while indie-rock band Yo La Tengo will lend its musical notes to the score.
Holiday rerun: This story was originally published March 19, 2014.
"We will run out of resources!Miami drivers all stink!"
The young men and women are standing in a practice room in Florida International University's School of Music, singing a whole string of gripes and lamentations.
A litany of complaints, as it were.
"People don't know to turn right on red!They never use their turn signals either!"
South Florida's Jazz in the Gardens festival kicks off this weekend at SunLife Stadium. Now in its ninth year, the festival has a line-up of mostly funk, hip-hop, and R&B artists.
So the event is hardly about jazz and not in a garden.
But the city of Miami Gardens originally launched the festival as a purely jazz event.
According to the festival's senior operations director, Ula Zucker-Williams, that idea lasted exactly one year:
Mike Levine is the composer behind the Topical Currents and South Florida Arts Beat theme music. His biography from www.mikelevinemusic.com:

The 8th Annual Festival of the Arts Boca is previewed by Charles Greenfield and Charlie Siemon, its Chair and Co-Executive Director.
Julio Iglesias spends much of his time in the air these days, crisscrossing the globe in his private plane to sing in concerts from Singapore to Transylvania. But for the several months of the year he is at his home in Indian Creek, an exclusive island enclave just off Surfside, his circle is much smaller.
02/14/14 - Next time on South Florida Arts Beat, Sobe Wine and Food Festival founder and director, Lee Schrager, shares his excitement about this year's 13th edition. Charles Greenfield speaks with the executive director of The Chopin Foundation, Jadwiga Gewert about enticing upcoming performances.

There's a debate brewing about how much???if at all???great standards contribute to education reform. This week, the Wall Street Journal published an editorial saying that they are not as important to student achievement as universal choice. And recently, Cato's Neal McCluskey published a report (and yesterday a blog post) arguing, essentially, that standards don't really drive achievement and thus that the move to draft rigorous common standards is distracting us from pushing reforms that might actually drive student achievement. Namely, universal choice.
At face value, this argument just doesn't sit well with me. To be clear, I'm a huge proponent of school choice. In fact, in the nine years I've spent working directly in and with schools, I've only worked in schools of choice???both public charter and private schools that were part of the DC opportunity scholarship program.
But, to say that advocating for more rigorous standards is a distraction from reforms that will drive student achievement seems so far removed from everything I've ever experienced in education.
First, the DC Catholic Schools Consortium (now the Center City Consortium), which has served hundreds of at-risk students thanks to the Opportunity Scholarship Program, was able...
The Fordham Institute's expert reviewers have analyzed the draft Common Core K-12 education standards (made public on March 10) according to rigorous criteria. Their analyses lead to a grade of A- for the draft mathematics standards and B for those in English language arts.
Our reviewers:
Sheila Byrd Carmichael served as reviewer for English language arts. Ms. Carmichael is an education consultant based in Washington, D.C., who has taught English in the District of Columbia Public Schools and in Italy and Japan. She was the founding director of the American Diploma Project and is the former deputy executive director of the California Academic Standards Commission. She is the co-author of Stars by Which to Navigate? Scanning National and International Education Standards (Thomas B. Fordham Institute, 2009), of Why We're Behind: What Top Nations Teach Their Students But We Don't (Common Core, 2008) and Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate: Do They Deserve Gold Star Status? (Thomas B. Fordham Institute, 2007). In addition, Sheila has also served as an external reviewer of the Common Core English Language Arts Standards for the National Governors Association and the Council of Chief State Schools Officers.
W. Stephen Wilson served as co-reviewer for mathematics. Dr....
Anyone who's been following the debate over national standards knows that two weeks ago, the National Governors Association (NGA) together with the Council of Chief State Schools Officers (CCSSO) released the much-anticipated public draft of the K-12 math and English language arts (ELA) Common Core State Standards.[quote]
These standards had already garnered a lot of attention even before this draft was released, with people weighing in with praise and criticism about the details of the standards themselves, about what rigorous, college-readiness standards should look like, and about whether states should even have (voluntary) common standards.
Today, thanks to our expert reviewers???Sheila Byrd Carmichael for ELA and W. Stephen Wilson and Gabrielle Martino for math???we are releasing our appraisal of these standards.
While there are certainly ways to improve these drafts, which are detailed in the reviews, our experts believe that these are rigorous college-readiness standards that would raise expectations in math and ELA classrooms across the country.
On the math side, while some tweaks are needed, particularly to the organization of the high school expectations, our reviewers found rigorous, internationally-competitive standards that earn an impressive A-.
On the ELA side, the draft...
Brookings' Brown Center on Education Policy just released a proposal for ???America's Teacher Corps,??? a federally funded program that would recognize highly effective teachers in Title I schools, award them a salary bonus ($10,000), and give them a ???portable credential??? transferrable from state to state so as to encourage the best teachers to flow to the highest-need schools. Perhaps most important, ATC would encourage states and districts to develop metrics to identify highly effective teachers in the first place. (All exciting stuff.)
The authors of the paper are spot-on in pointing out the rationale for such a program. There are general problems with the profession not recruiting the best and brightest, being plagued with high turnover, inequitable distribution of talent, etc. The ATC would minimize credentialing barriers. Ohio needs this desperately, as it doesn't always grant reciprocity for out-of-state teachers ??? i.e. making Teach For America alums jump through certification hoops regardless of prior classroom experience/performance.
Stephen Sawchuk at Teacher Beat has a good write-up about it. He also expresses concern over a few ???potential pitfalls,??? among them the fact that a program like ATC would rely on districts having valid and reliable teacher evaluation systems....
This week's edition kicks off with a great piece by Terry discussing the unprecedented move by the Ohio Department of Education to close a charter school sponsor (aka authorizer) for fiscal mismanagement. Terry dives into the academic track record of the sponsor's schools (which is abysmal) and argues that Ohio is right to take action to close them. Nelson Smith from NAPCS says ???bravo to Ohio??? for this.
Next, read Checker's review of Diane Ravitch's The Death and Life of the Great American School System. The Dayton Daily News covers the Finn-Ravitch buzz and asks ???So we have, from right to left, Finn, Obama, and Ravitch? Or is it left to right????
Be sure to check out Mike Lafferty's report on Ohio's STEM meeting for excellent on-the-ground perspectives from parents, teachers, and business folks as to why STEM is important (and fears about how to fit it into the curriculum). Also read Mike and Tim's analysis of how much money Ohio could save through district ???consolidations??? (as in, sharing services, not consolidation ala Brookings' recent recommendations), and Emmy's piece that points out if Ohio is not a round 1 RttT finalist,...
???Teacher effectiveness??? has made its way to the top of the education policy agenda, supplanting the focus on ???highly qualified??? teachers from No Child Left Behind and treading into the dangerous (but necessary) territory of measuring effectiveness, in part, with student test scores. President Obama and Secretary Duncan's decision to use the language of teacher ???effectiveness??? in the application for the federal $4.35 billion Race to the Top grants (with student growth a ???significant factor??? in measuring teacher effectiveness ) was no small shift. We'll find out soon how serious Obama and Duncan are about ensuring ???great teachers and leaders??? ??? the RttT category worth almost a third of the application points -- as first round finalists will be announced next week.
Meanwhile, Bill and Melinda Gates have their sights set on the concept of teacher effectiveness as well, investing $290 million in four cities that are developing ???groundbreaking plans to improve teacher effectiveness.??? And just to be sure we all know what effectiveness means, they're pumping another $45 million into the Measures of Effective Teaching project, an initiative that will...
It's no surprise that Ohio's economy is in crisis, but you might be amazed at the price tag for some of Gov. Strickland's new education mandates. Terry points out the implications of decreasing class size in grades K-3 alone (to 15:1), which will cost $784 million per year by 2014. If you're wondering how, where, and when Ohio plans to come up with that money while facing an upcoming $8 billion deficit, join the club.
Meanwhile, Kathryn (the Fordham Foundation's director of charter school sponsorship) discusses Fordham's new contract with its charter schools. We're proud of Fordham's strict sponsorship (authorizing) contract, which allows schools maximum operational freedoms but requires that schools be held to high standards of operational and academic excellence. Be sure to check this piece out to learn what types of provisions are necessary for a high-quality contract between schools and their authorizers.
Also on the lineup is Emmy's response to the Cleveland Teachers Union (CTU), which recently asked why the district would want to utilize charter schools as part of its transformation plan. Emmy says, ???For starters, how about better-educated students???? and points out that six of the top ten schools in...
Watch our debate on school turnarounds vs. closures, and don't miss insightful and provocative comments from the panelists, including this one from Andres Alonso, CEO of Baltimore City Public Schools:
My friend Michelle Rhee, who I'm sure you all know here in DC, I've heard her say that she's heard from Warren Buffet, I think, that the quickest way to fix public schools is to get rid of private schools. Because then it would not be acceptable for half the kids not to graduate. It wouldn't be acceptable.
You can find whatever your heart desires on the internet, and that's in part thanks to something called open source. It's a bit of an amorphous term, but that hasn't stopped this Utah virtual charter school from diving in to this potentially revolutionizing movement. Open source is just as its name implies--open. In terms of general internet material, that means that the source code (i.e., the program code behind the information) is available alongside the content, to be used and modified as the consumer desires. At an open source virtual charter, that means being able to personalize learning materials to a new level. (Read more about Open Source here.)
So what does this mean for Open High School? No commercial textbooks, which means that lesson materials aren't copyrighted and can be used and modified to a greater degree of specificity for each student. It also means that a staff of four teachers can give personalized attention to 125 ninth graders (tenth grade will open next year). That's a student-teacher ratio of 31.25:1. And that's all in addition to the more traditional benefits of virtual schools, like flexible learning time (the teachers often respond to midnight homework questions...

FPGA Implementation Reed Solomon Encoder for Visual Sensor Networks
Date Added: Jan 2012
Format: PDF
Reliability of data transmission across the visual sensor network is a major consent for image data captured by image sensor. The available error correction capabilities integrated in the wireless sensor network modules, it is not sufficient to protect a huge amount of transmitted data. With errors often occurred on the transmitted data, the base-station would not be able to receive the accurate information from the sensor nodes. Hence retransmission of data from the sensor nodes to the sink are required which increase power consumption and decrease the lifespan of the sensor nodes.

D.R.U.G.S. release new song
if the shovel technique is as bad as in the last video I'll be disappointed.
So sick of this band like really....
I didn't actually watch the video. did it suck as bad as everything else they've done?
another cheesy video. nothing special about the song, though i didn't find craig very annoying in this song.
You gotta post news like this or Sputnik would have nothing to complain about
i mean... none of the songs have been that bad so far.
that^ cept sex life that was atrocious...coming from a fanboy
This was originally a Chiodos song, if anyone was wondering. . .
Those lyrics were embarrassing.
do we really need this in the news everyday?
craig owens seriously sucks so bad

heres the same lyrics with the instrumentals from chiodos
thank god brandon rewrote the song...
The lyrics are pretty bad, but I like the song. Looking forward to this album.
they're releasing a new song and promo video every day until the album is released. we don't need it to be added to the news every damn time. This should only have been put in the news once.
Don't get me wrong, I enjoy these songs, but we really don't need an update every day. Really, the only song from them I didn't enjoy at all was "Sex Life". The rest are at least decent, but that song sucksssss.
ok just listened to the song and this was the original lyrics for the chiodos

Really? Stratovolcano mouth is my favourite track on new Chiodos. I also hate old chiodos minus a couple songs, this song was better then most of the shit DRUGS has been putting out, but the lyrics and video are both a joke

Yeah I like Graveyard Dancing probably the best so far. My guess is this CD will be slightly above average but will be well-received, especially here.
i think it will be hated here..
This could end up being a better Lies for the Liars....how much better is up for debate.

A Sam Sevian Interview
A nice interview with Sam Sevian in the popular press. (HT: Marc Beishon)
A nice interview with Sam Sevian in the popular press. (HT: Marc Beishon)
Here. (Hat tip: Howard Sample.) It's nice that the U.S. mainstream press is taking notice of Sam Sevian, even if, as in this case, the news is slightly negative. On the plus side, as far as the tournament (the Wijk aan Zee Challengers Group) is concerned, Sevian bounced back with a remarkable win over Vladimir Potkin in round 4 - a real triumph of perseverance against a very strong and experienced grandmaster. In the tournament where he became a grandmaster, Sevian impressed with his sharp opening preparation and attacking energy, but his victory over Potkin was a triumph of grit.
Here is a profile of Sam Sevian, the United States's youngest, and youngest-ever, grandmaster.
(HT: Howard Sample)
The "Showdown in St. Louis" between Levon Aronian and Hikaru Nakamura was tied after four classical games, so the winner in tonight's best-of-16 blitz match would win the event and $60,000, while the loser would "only" get $40,000. After a shaky first couple of games, Nakamura felt he got in the zone, while Aronian kept getting into time trouble and all the difficulties it tends to generate. Afterwards Aronian opined that while he's a good blitz player when it's 4'+2", 3'+2" - the time control used in this match - was a bit too fast for him. In the end Nakamura won 9.5-6.5, clinching match victory with two games to spare.
In the GM norm event Sam Sevian drew his last game (a long game, not a quick handshake deal as in his previous game with the black pieces) and finished in clear first with 7.5/9, a ton of rating points and the grandmaster title. He is the youngest U.S. player to achieve the title, and the sixth-youngest of all time.
Congrats to him, to Nakamura, and also to Michael William Brown who made norm in the concurrent IM norm event as well!
In brief: game 4 of the match between Levon Aronian and Hikaru Nakamura was drawn, and thus they finished the classical portion of the match 2-2 - or rather, 8-8. (Classical games were worth 4 points each, while each blitz game tomorrow will be worth a single point.) That means that whoever wins the blitz part of their competition (16 games!) tomorrow will take match victory.
Meanwhile, in the GM norm event 13-year-old Sam Sevian continues to make a mockery of the field. He took a very quick draw with Black in the morning round before dragging another bamboozled opponent to his death in his white game in the evening. His score is 7-1 and his TPR 2801. It isn't quite Fabiano Caruana at the Sinquefield Cup, but it's incredibly impressive all the same. With the white pieces he has been brutal, winning all five of his games; four with smashing attacks that went fewer than 40 moves.
After a couple of wacky match games Hikaru Nakamura and Levon Aronian drew game 3, leaving their match tied 6-6 with one more classical game to go before the blitz battles on Tuesday. Even this game had some ups and downs though, with first Nakamura and then Aronian briefly enjoying a strong plus before equality was restored.
In the concurrent GM norm tournament, 13-year-old Sam Sevian was slowed down briefly in the morning round, drawing a tough game with an IM before beating GM Ben Finegold in the evening round in yet another tactically flashy game. He has blown past the 2500 rating level he needed to achieve his GM title, and right now has a fantastic 2873 TPR. (It's amazing to think that's pretty much just another day at the office for Magnus Carlsen.) It will be exciting to see if he can maintain and increase the level of tactical savagery he has displayed in this tournament as he grows as a player.
The ongoing world championship match between Magnus Carlsen and Viswanathan Anand has drawn the lion's share of the chess world's attention the past couple of weeks, but some other interesting events have taken place in the meantime as well. Let's take a quick tour of the landscape.
1. Aronian - Nakamura. This is the main event in St. Louis, a five day match with four classical games (worth four points apiece) followed by 16 blitz games (worth one point per game). Game 1 was won by Hikaru Nakamura, when Levon Aronian got into time trouble and lost what would normally be considered a very drawish position. Today the reverse happened: it looked like Nakamura wanted to squeeze blood from a stone, and to his surprise wound up in an ending that should still have been drawn but turned out to be more challenging. He lost, and so the match is tied 4-4.
2. There are concurrent GM and IM norm tournaments in St. Louis, and the big story is taking place in the GM event, where 13-year-old Sam Sevian is about to earn - or perhaps, has now earned - his grandmaster title. He already had the three norms needed, and simply had to get his rating over 2500 at some point. He entered the tournament rated 2484, and his 4-0 start, including two wins over GMs, has brought him to the promised land. He won't be awarded the title on the spot, but he has now become the youngest American player in history to achieve the grandmaster title. Have a look at these two wins from the tournament, and you won't find his accomplishment at all surprising. Congratulations to him!
3. The Ukranian Championship finished earlier today (yesterday now, for the Ukranians themselves), and after a dramatic last round Yuriy Kuzubov and Pavel Eljanov finished tied for first with 7.5 points out of 11, with Kuzubov finishing first on tiebreaks.
4. Tal Memorial Blitz. This took place a week or so ago, but deserved to be mentioned. It was a 12 player double-round robin event spread over two days, and on day 1 Shakhriyar Mamedyarov had a fantastic score of 10/11, giving up just two draws. He received enough gifts for a couple of Christmases, and not all of them could be chalked up to his very great tactical resourcefulness. He had a big lead, but the next day he had only normal luck and scored just 6 points out of 11, but Alexander Grischuk couldn't quite catch up and finished half a point behind. Alexander Morozevich, Boris Gelfand and Sergey Karjakin tied for third. Video coverage links: day 1, rounds 1-6; day 1, rounds 7-11; day 2, all rounds.
A story about the U.S.'s current youngest-ever master Sam Sevian, here. It's a standard-issue "human interest" story (I guess other stories are written for non-humans?), but it's nice when it's about chess and no one involved is mentally ill.
