Representing species-specific proteins and protein complexes in ontologies that are both human- and machine-readable facilitates the retrieval, analysis, and interpretation of genome-scale data sets. Although existing protin-centric informatics resources provide the biomedical research community with well-curated compendia of protein sequence and structure, these resources lack formal ontological representations of the relationships among the proteins themselves. The Protein Ontology (PRO) Consortium is filling this informatics resource gap by developing ontological representations and relationships among proteins and their variants and modified forms. Because proteins are often functional only as members of stable protein complexes, the PRO Consortium, in collaboration with existing protein and pathway databases, has launched a new initiative to implement logical and consistent representation of protein complexes.
We describe here how the PRO Consortium is meeting the challenge of representing species-specific protein complexes, how protein complex representation in PRO supports annotation of protein complexes and comparative biology, and how PRO is being integrated into existing community bioinformatics resources. The PRO resource is accessible at http://pir.georgetown.edu/pro/ webcite.
PRO is a unique database resource for species-specific protein complexes. PRO facilitates robust annotation of variations in composition and function contexts for protein complexes within and between species.

Quality Physical Education
UNESCO intends to contribute in taking on this challenge to initiate a big project called 'worksites for quality physical education and sport'.
UNESCO is mandated to improve the quality physical education, because of its Education for All initiative, as well as its physical education and sport (PES) programme and International Olympic Committee's goal of Sport for All. In order to improve the quality of physical education it is imperative to increase the value attributed to PES as well as making it available to all peoples. The organization with the support of several partners is currently developing international quality indicators for PES. Pilot projects have been designed for Africa, which will be extended to other regions.
- evaluate teacher training and PES facilities;
- to bring educational structures up to a university level;
- initiate PES teaching at the primary school level;
- improving human resources;
- progress on UNESCO's Education for All initiative.
Strengthening the quality of physical education and sport (PES) will be achieved by addressing the following four issues :
At the International seminar in Saly, Senegal 2006 a benchmark was set on the quality of PES in the education system. Two mechanisms were established to improve and reorganize the quality-indicators of PES. These include, the reinforcement of the capacity of teaching training structures in Sub-Saharan Africa and to increase the operation and performance of the network of PES institutions in this region.
Appraisal of training structures:
The policy of strengthening of quality physical education and sport needs an appraisal of PES teachers and personnel training structures within the field of PES. This appraisal allows UNESCO to have a clearer image in terms of needs for PES training structures and bring them assistance.
Teaching of PES in primary schools:
One of UNESCO's challenges is to give each child quality education to achieve the objectives of Education for All. This education requires keeping a healthy mind in a healthy body from early childhood. Teaching of PES at primary level is a necessity for physical, intellectual and moral education, also for his/her initiation to citizenship.
Development of human resources:
Strengthening human resources in charge of physical education is a priority for several developing countries. In numerous countries, the training of PES personnel comes under the Ministry of Sports. After their training, this personnel is usually employed by the Ministry of Education as teachers in High schools and middle schools. Ministries of Sports are therefore "emptied " years after years of their personnel. In view to find a solution to this problem, UNESCO has initiated a project of compensation in human resources.
Universitarisation of PES teachers training structures:
In numerous developing countries, notably in French speaking areas, training structures do not have university institution status. To help training structures in these countries to reach university level, UNESCO has initiated a pilot project for creating a Master's degree in PES in Africa.

In the United States, heart disease is responsible for nearly one in four deaths each year (1). It's a given that taking care of the heart is one of the most important things a person can do to ensure good health throughout life. But, how to do so from a nutritional standpoint is a complex topic, and one that deserves our attention.
What's Selling is our monthly review of what our retailers nationwide say is selling well in their stores. This month, we've compiled data from April to June to see what was popular in the second quarter of 2012.
New Brunswick, NJ—A team from Rutgers University believes two forms of vitamin E could be a huge help in the fight against colon, lung, breast and prostate cancers. The group zeroed in on the gamma and delta-tocopherols forms of vitamin E, derived from soybean, canola and corn oils. "There are studies suggesting that vitamin E actually increases the risk of cancer and decreases bone density," says Chung S. Yang, director of the Center for Cancer Prevention Research at Rutgers Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy.
San Diego, CA—Lovers of spicy jalapenos, habaneros and other chili peppers are in luck because a recent study found that they are heart-healthy foods. This report was part of the 243rd National Meeting and Exposition of the American Chemical Society.
On April 24, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued warning letters to 10 manufacturers and distributors of dietary supplements containing dimethylamylamine (DMAA). DMAA is commonly found in sports and weight-loss supplements.
Pittsburgh, PA—First-quarter sales for GNC Holdings Inc. better than expected. Revenues were $624.3 million, which was 23% higher than they were last year at this time.
Laguna Beach, CA—Richard A. Passwater, Ph.D., scientific editor/author of WholeFoods' Vitamin Connection column and well-known nutrition researcher, and fish oil authority Jorn Dyerberg, M.D., DMSc., have co-authored a new book about omega-3s that is due out this summer.
The 2012 Natural Products Expo West tradeshow was the largest in its 30-year history. Some 60,000 industry members attended the event, which ran March 8–11 at the Anaheim Convention Center. Show organizers said attendance of retail buyers grew 13% this year, which made for a good show, say many exhibitors.
Washington, D.C.—A recent study commissioned by the Council for Responsible Nutrition (CRN) found that dietary supplement use for adults ages 18 and over is on the rise. Compared to 66% of adults in the U.S. in 2010, supplement usage is now at 69%.

text: MAC All About Plum Look in a Box ($49.50 for 0.43 oz.) is described as "shades of cool-toned lilacs, soft pale pinks, and silvery warm greys." The palette contains two blushes, six eyeshadows, two lipsticks, and a double-ended brush (275SE/316SE). Each eyeshadow is 0.0176 oz. each (0.106 oz. total), blush is 0.14 oz. each (0.28 oz. total), and lipstick is 0.02 oz. each (0.04 oz. total). Based on price per ounce, the kit contains $31.68 worth of eyeshadow, $28 worth of blush, and $6.40 worth of lipstick, which adds up to $66.08. There is also a dual-ended brush, so I guess that's valued at $34.92 in order to add up to the $101 value listed.

The Social Media: A Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn Primer years… Over the last 10 years… …businesses small and large have experienced a windfall of technological advances which have helped them grow and expand. For example, the letters we used to take to the post office have morphed into emails that we simply push "send" to distribute. While we are waiting to board our plane, we can answer our emails from 4 different accounts. We can even dial up and talk directly to our clients across the globe through our computers for free! The speed, quality and quantity of business that we can undertake has increased at lightening speed! If your online campaign is focused solely on a Google Adwords Campaign, Search Engine Optimization (SEO) or email marketing alone...you are missing one of the most important promotional tools - a targeted and customized social media marketing campaign. Now it seems you can't turn around without hearing someone mentioning Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and the "social media" as a whole. What many businesses don't recognize is the unbelievable impact that social networking sites can yield when used as a marketing vehicle for your business. It captures what other online marketing tools miss: the human element. Imagine how powerful it would be to actually have a real-time conversation with your target consumer or a contact that could help build your business. A direct human connection builds credibility and fuels positive word of mouth. Sites such as Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn exist solely to build relationships such as these. Twitter, Imagine going to at least 3 relevant, targeted networking events every day and meeting people that can grow your business. And imagine doing it on an international scale without ever having to get on a plane or leaving your office. That's the power of the social media. The connections you make translates into more traffic to your website which in many cases is your point of sale. Visit Us Online: www.emsincorporated.com / Call Us on 800-881-7342 or email us by clicking here! To help you navigate the wonderful world of "Online Cocktail Parties," here is a brief explanation of three of the most popular sites and definitions of key terms associated with each site. Please note that this information is just a taster and is by no means a comprehensive report of all elements of the following social media sites. There are entire books written on each individual one of them! You can learn more about each site by visiting each website's "Help" section. They are surprisingly helpful and packed with useful information to help you get started. First up: twitter! A Brief Explanation Twitter is a social networking service that allows its users to post a mixture of personal and professional messages of up to 140 characters in length. Key Terms Profile Twitter Profile (similar to Facebook and LinkedIn): This is the page where people can visit to learn more about you and determine if they want to follow you. This page contains your picture, information about yourself, links to your other websites, company logo and your tweet history. Tweets: Tweets: A 'tweet' is a 140 character message that you post which can be seen by anyone on Twitter. Your 'followers' will be able to see your 'tweets' automatically. (A few examples of types of 'tweets' can be seen below) Wall: Wall: A term that defines the location of where your post can be seen. The "wall" contains post updates of everyone in your network. Visit Us Online: www.emsincorporated.com / Call Us on 800-881-7342 or email us by clicking here! Followers: Followers: The people that subscribe to your tweets are called 'followers.' These people see all of your tweets and are also able to send you a direct message. Following Your following on Twitter is comprised of the number of people whose Following: tweets you subscribe to (similar to friends/connections on Facebook and LinkedIn). You are able to see every tweet they send out and also send them direct messages. Direct Messages (DM): These are messages sent privately to your twitter mailbox (or sent from you to others). These can not be seen by everyone and are useful for sharing confidential information. Types of Tweets: • ost: Post General Post: This could be an update on your day, what you are doing, a new project that you just landed, the launch of a new product, your thoughts on a newsworthy topic, etc. • post: Link post: This is a tweet where you share hyperlinks to an outside site that you think your followers would be interested in seeing. This could be your website, blog, landing page, Youtube channel, flickr album, a relevant news or entertainment or even a newspaper article. • ReTweet (RT): This is when you share another person's tweet (because you found it interesting/entertaining, or you want to help promote them or their message). By typing RT, the "@" sign, a twitter username and then the original message you are able to share a friend's tweet with all of your followers (and Twitter at large). • Subject- weets: Tweets Subject-Tagged Tweets: By placing the # sign in front of a word in your tweet (ex: #publicity) you are tagging your tweet as being related to that subject. Twitter users who want to search what people are saying about publicity will search #publicity and your tweet will show up in the search results. Visit Us Online: www.emsincorporated.com / Call Us on 800-881-7342 or email us by clicking here! A Brief Explanation Facebook is a social networking site that is most commonly used as a means for staying in touch with friends, meeting new friends and sharing business ideas. There are no character limits to status updates in Facebook like there are in Twitter. The culture on Facebook is more informal and friendly than on LinkedIn. You are much more likely to see posts of entertaining things and personal well- wishes mixed in with business oriented updates. Key Terms Profile (similar to Twitter and LinkedIn ): The Facebook profile allows for more information sharing than the other sites. For example, you can share photo albums, videos, notes and links to other sites. The KEY difference from other sites is the wall… Post: Post A message that you write and share with your network on your wall. Wall: Wall: This is where all of your posts are located where people can now read, comment and share. 'Friends' can also write directly on your wall which is visible to all of your connections on Facebook. Among the key wall elements are: • Updates Status Updates - things that you post on your wall • Comments Comments- a response to what you post • Like"- "Like"- a positive comment you can leave on anything a person posts Like" with a single click (it looks like a "thumbs up") Newsfeed: Newsfeed: Appearing on your Facebook homepage (once you log-on), is a running list (in real-time) of all of your 'friends' updates. This is the key way to keep your finger on the pulse of what's happening in your network of friends. Visit Us Online: www.emsincorporated.com / Call Us on 800-881-7342 or email us by clicking here! Friends (similar to followers on Twitter and connections on LinkedIn): On Facebook a friend is a two-way relationship (whereas on Twitter someone can follow you without you following them). Once two people have agreed to be friends they can view each other's full profile information (some people limit their profile to friends only), post a message on each other's walls and will appear in each other's newsfeed. You can also send out mass messages to your friends, invite them to events and to your other groups. You can also suggest other friends they may want to connect with. Request: Friend Request: Simply, this is when someone requests to connect with you. In Facebook you must approve a friend request before they are connected to you (unlike Twitter, where anyone can follow you unless you block them). Messages: Messages Just like on the other sites, you and your friends can send and receive private messages. Events: Events: You can create events and send out virtual invitations to your friends. These events can be real events (ex: a party or speaking engagement) or virtual events (like a webinar). The events page gives information on the event and allows you to see who is attending. Also, there is a wall on an event page just like on your profile. Here people can discuss the upcoming event, ask questions or share further info. Chat: Facebook Chat Similar to Yahoo! and MSN Messenger, this is the instant messaging system in Facebook that can be enabled or disabled. If enabled, you can instantly message your Facebook friends if they are online. Groups: Groups: When a cluster of Facebook users share a common interest, a group can be created. You are also able to choose your groups to join. In groups there is a wall in addition to a discussion board. Here you are able to post items and people can come by and leave comments. Groups are a terrific place to build relevant friends; ones who may be interested in your topic or business. Page: Fan Page: A fan page is similar to your profile except it is for a specific company, celebrity, book or business that wouldn't have "friends" but would rather have "fans." People who "become fans" can receive mass messages Visit Us Online: www.emsincorporated.com / Call Us on 800-881-7342 or email us by clicking here! and are able to post on the wall. The only thing a fan can't do is send a message directly to the Fan Page. Examples of this are Twilight, Tom Cruise, Doctor Phil and American Airlines. A Brief Explanation LinkedIn is a networking site most commonly used for professional reasons. The culture on LinkedIn is the most professional of all the different sites. People don't generally communicate just to say hello, and people cannot comment on your status updates like they can on Facebook. Rather, people are networking for business, jobs and to seek answers to their business questions. As a result, asking questions to people you don't know is very common (and encouraged by LinkedIn). Key Terms Profile A person's profile on LinkedIn contains their picture and their professional Profile: background information. The information in a person's profile can be as extensive or brief as they want it to be. You are able to add such background information as your employment history, education, awards and honors, recommendations and professional memberships. Your profile can also link to other sites and have your blog imported into it. Recommendations: These are testimonials people write for you (or you write for Recommendations: them) on LinkedIn, which will appear on the profile page. Updates: Network Updates This is the area on your profile that says what you are working on. This is similar to a status update on Facebook, except that people cannot comment on it. Visit Us Online: www.emsincorporated.com / Call Us on 800-881-7342 or email us by clicking here! Connections (similar to followers on Twitter and friends on Facebook): Once someone is connected to you, you can view all their information, recommend them, send them direct messages and invite them to your groups. Messages: Messages: In LinkedIn, you have a mail box similar to the other sites. The difference is, you can only send messages to people who are connected to you. Connect: Invitation to Connect: This is similar to a friend request in Facebook and is sent directly to your inbox. Groups: Groups: These are very similar to the groups found on Facebook. The difference is that LinkedIn groups allow you to post discussions – questions, articles, news stories and more. These groups are VERY active, with many comments and discussions holding numerous postings. People can comment on your postings and send a message to you directly on the topic. You are also able to create your own professional group, where you can feature certain discussion posts as well as having the opportunity to mass message all group members. Groups also contain news and job boards where members can post. But…this is just the beginning! The above key word list of terms is there to help you get acquainted with the online world. But there are still hundreds more terms, strategies and different applications which can be utilized in the social media. Like many business people, I realize how busy you can get. But we also know how important social media marketing is to your overall marketing strategy. If you are interested, we can help you harness the power of the social media for 727-443- your business. Give my partner Steve a call on 727-443-7115, Extension 202 or email him by clicking here to learn more. We look forward to hearing from you.

The ICNL reserves play an important role in protecting rare, diverse, and important ecosystems on South Hill and in the nearby Town of Newfield. This is done through formal conservation easement agreements with the Town of Ithaca and the Finger Lakes Land Trust, and through informal agreements between the ICNL Committee and the College's Division of Finance and Administration.
As a large landowner in the Emerald Necklace Region, Ithaca College is a significant player alongside the New York State Parks, the Finger Lakes National Forest, the Finger Lakes Land Trust, and Cornell University in large landscape conservation in the region.
Some of the many noteworthy biological attributes of the ICNL reserves are detailed in the South Hill Natural Area informational guide.

College Basketball Betting Preview: Tulsa Golden Hurricane vs. Duke Blue Devils
- Updated: February 24, 2010
Tulsa Golden Hurricane
Duke Blue Devils
It's not often that teams step out of conference for college basketball betting battles this deep into February, but that's what's happening on Thursday night when the Tulsa Golden Hurricane looks to spring the upset on the Duke Blue Devils. The Golden Hurricane is sliding right now, having lost three straight games to most likely remove it from the right side of the bubble. The Dookies have their eyes glued to a #1 seed in the NCAA Tournament, but a trip up against a Conference USA foe would most likely end those dreams.
Tulsa doesn't have a team that is fantastic at anything in particular, but it does enough little things to really be annoying to a team like Duke. For starters, G Ben Uzoh is lethal from the perimeter. No, he's not nearly as good as any of the men on the outside for the Blue Devils, but he is the Golden Hurricane's top scorer at 16.1 points per game. The real matchup problem that most teams have against Tulsa is in the low post. C Jerome Jordan is a mammoth at 7'0″, and he can be dominant in the paint at times. Jordan is second on the team in scoring at 15.2 points per game and leads the squad with 8.6 rebounds per night to boot.
Coach K has done a great job with his team this year even though it doesn't have a ton of depth. There are really moments where the Blue Devils look like a team that is playing 3-on-5, as G Jon Scheyer, G Nolan Smith, and F Kyle Singler account for 53.7 of Duke's 80.0 points per game on the season. No one else is even scoring 6.0 points. All three can stroke the deep ball as well, as each is shooting at least 39% from beyond the arc. Keep an eye on C Brian Zoubek in this one, as he may be Duke's only hope of containing Jordan in the post.
It would be a really nice story if Tulsa went into Cameron Indoor and took out the Blue Devils, but it just isn't going to happen. This is a Golden Hurricane team that has just gotten reamed of late when it takes on the dominant teams in the country on the road. Look no further than last season's two losses at Memphis: 64-39 and 63-37. The year before, two more losses at Memphis (77-51 and 82-67) and a bad loss at Oklahoma (81-55). Remember, this is a Duke squad that has already issued 20+ point beat downs this year to Maryland. Wake Forest, Boston College, Iowa State, Clemson, Penn, Long Beach State, Gonzaga, Gardner-Webb, Radford, Charlotte, Coastal Carolina, and UNC-Greensboro. Tulsa should be added to that list.
Selection: Duke Blue Devils
The Blue Devils are 15-5-1 ATS in their L/21 games played in front of the Cameron Crazies. Diamond Sportsbook currently has a college basketball betting line of Duke -18 for you to dig into right now!

The Girl Who Rode The Wind
Stacy's new book is out in August! Here's a sneak preview….
Would you be brave enough to ride a racehorse? How about riding it bareback, through cobbled streets where one wrong move will mean you'll crash into a building and you risk being ridden off course by battle-hardened jockeys who are twice your size? That's the reality of the Palio, Italy's famous street race that is the most dangerous horse race in the world….
The Girl Who Rode The Wind is the story of tough New York kid, twelve-year old Lola Campione, who is determined to become a jockey. When her grandmother takes Lola on a homecoming journey back to Italy, Lola develops a special connection to Nico, a chestnut Anglo-Arab horse who is destined to race in the Palio. At the same time she is finding clues that will sweep her back in time to 1943 when Italy is at war and the mysteries of her grandmother's secret past unfold. Lola must uncover the truth about what happened all those years ago, and ride to race of her life on her beloved Nico to win the palio.

"The sun glinted off the steel. I looked at Cara standing so trustingly before me. She didn't know that I was doing this for her, out of love. I ran my finger down the edge, testing the blade. It was razor sharp. Once I made the first cut there would be no turning back…"
On a remote island in the Bahamas, a twelve year-old girl is about to embark on an epic adventure. Her journey will take her through hurricanes and across the high seas, halfway around the world and back in time to Christopher Columbus's Spain, as she unravels the real-life mystery of the world's rarest horse…
The last thing you'd expect to find in the jungle on a tropical island is a horse. Or so Beatriz Ortega believes until she stumbles across a wild mare with strange 'medicine hat' markings in the jungles of Great Abaco.
Beatriz feels an instant connection with the island mare; a bond that will push her to the very limits of her courage and take her back in time, to Spain in 1493, where another young girl, Felipa Molina and her horse, a mare named Cara, are also fighting for their lives. As the fates of Beatriz, Felipa and their horses become ever more entwined, Beatriz realises that the future of the island horses depends on her…
Based on the extraordinary true story of the Abaco Barb, The Island of Lost Horses explores a real-life mystery that has remained unsolved for over five hundred years.

CONGRESSMAN KENDRICK MEEK ON VOTER REGISTRATION - Mitch Perry10/06/04
As we reported last night on the Evening News, Civil and Voting Rights groups are calling on Florida Secretary of State Glenda Hood to reverse a ruling that will leave perhaps thousands of would-be voters ineligible for the upcoming election.
The voters failed to check a citizenship box on their voter registration applications, an oversight advocates say should not preclude legal voters from going to the polls next month. Hood maintains that the failure to fully fill out the registration f...

The disease can cause intense pain, stroke and death. Dr. Willarda V. Edwards is the President and Chief Operating Officer of the Sickle Cell Disease Association...Be the first to comment

In XHTML and HTML Essential Training, Bill Weinman helps designers and coders understand XHTML and HTML. In the process, Bill covers document structure, block and inline-level tags, floating images, controlling white space, phrase and font markup, and tables and frames. He even provides a good introduction to CSS. Bill offers step-by-step guidance for building a complete working web site. Exercise files accompany the course.
Continuing with building the template for our website, we're going to now enter this stuff at the bottom of the screen here, the legal stuff, the copyright notice, Privacy Policy, and Terms and Conditions links. And then we'll be done with our template, and we'll have a template that we can use to start building our site. In the Editor, we have the beginning. html and css from the 07-layout-footer folder, and we're going to go ahead and do our traditional Save As ritual.
We are going to be calling it template. html and we'll actually have our work in template at the end of this lesson. The css will be main.css. There we go. Now, down at the bottom of the template, we're going to put in the text for the footer and it's like this. It actually goes outside of that table. The paragraph itself has an id="footer".
Inside the paragraph we're going to have our copyright notice. That's an XHTML entity for the copyright symbol. Now I'm putting in a couple of non-breaking spaces here. The purpose of that is to give a little bit of space between the Groundswell Surf and the links for the Privacy and Terms and Conditions links. You'll notice in our page here, there's a little bit of space there and then we have this bar separating these two. But this space, normally the browser will fold all the spaces into one space, and I want to actually have some spaces there.
So those non-breaking spaces serve to just take up enough white space there, on the actual screen. Then I'm going to put in my links on separate lines because the browser will actually ignore that new line and put it on the same line there. Just type a vertical bar character there at the end, and do the same thing for the Terms and Conditions link. There we have it. So that is the XHTML portion of the footer. If we look at that in the browser-- Let's go ahead and load this up.
This will be the template.html. Drag that in, and we see we have the text and the links, and now we just need to format them. You see that lovely space there? That's the non-breaking space characters. Let's go ahead and enter the style sheets for this. Down at the bottom of the file, go ahead and create a comment. p#footer, and we have the Trebuchet font-family, which I'm just going to copy and paste from up here.
font-size: .75em. Make it smaller, color: white. So the text will be white here. text-align: center. And then the links are going to be this other color that's already been selected again. So that selects all the anchor tags inside of the footer# context.
text-decoration: none. That makes it so that the links don't have an underline on them. So we have some of these extra spaces. And go ahead and save this. Load this up in the browser. There we have it. It's just how we wanted, white text here, the little teal text there. It's exactly how we wanted. So now we have a template, which we can use for building the rest of the pages for our site.
So we use this as a starting point, as we build the pages for the rest of this site.

I've actually been working on it for some time now, but I finally feel like it's time to officially debut my blog to the IXDA community:
If you get a chance, check out http://www.edibleusable.com - my blog about usability, cooking and eating. I know it sounds like a bit of a mash up, but I'm hoping it works.
Any thoughts, ideas, comments and suggestions are welcome and appreciated!

Posted from the new ixda.org
I LOVE your blog. Simply love the concept of what you are doing. This has
been an issue that has been on my mind for a long time because I think there
is a lot of similarlity between cooking/recipes/users and design/users. For
example, when I visited Sunset Magazine recently at their open house, they
described how they develop recipes and user test them in their test kitchen
(does this sound familiar?!). Also, I think that magazines/restaurants have
similar challenges introducing new things as creators of new digital
experiences have.
How do magazines create new popular recipes when people like cooking old
standby comfort foods? How do restaurants create buzz and a return
customers? Although I don't think the problems are identical, I think there
is definitely a lot of crossover.
Thanks for putting this blog together!

3 pounds butternut squash, halved lengthwise, seeded
6 large garlic cloves, unpeeled
3 tablespoons olive oil

Nasu Dengaku
|For the sauce
|1⁄2 Cup (8 tbs) (1/4 cup of red miso & 1/4 cup of white miso used)
|2 Tablespoon
|2 Tablespoon
|1 Cup (16 tbs)
|Corn starch
|2 Teaspoon (Dissolved in a little water)
|For the eggplant
|1 Medium (If using the japanese eggplant, use 2 medium)
|1 Tablespoon (For spreading on the eggplant)
|Sesame seeds
|1 Teaspoon, roasted (as required for garnishing)
1. Take the eggplant and cut in half lengthwise. Also cut a little off the bottoms so that they sit nicely in the oven without rolling around.
2. Score the flesh on the inside in a criss-cross pattern, being careful not to cut all the way through.
3. Spread the scored insides of the eggplant with oil.
4. Put the prepared eggplant under the broiler until golden brown.
5. Meanwhile in a bowl whisk together the miso, mirin and the sugar over a double boiler. Gradually introduce the dashi, small portions at a time while whisking well.
6. Add the cornstarch and whisk well. Let it thicken and then take it off the heat.
7. Keep stirring for a couple of minutes while it thickens. Give it a taste and add more sugar if required.
8. When the eggplant is golden brown, carefully take them out of the oven. Using a spoon or a brush, put a generous amount of the sauce on top of the grilled eggplant. Put back under the broiler for a minute or two.
8. Serve warm garnished with some roasted sesame seeds
When scoring the eggplant with the criss-cross pattern, be careful not to cut all the way through. This will ensure that the eggplants cook faster and that the sauce will penetrate into the flesh.
When the eggplant is under the broiler make sure the sauce does not burn.
The left over sauce (if any) can be stored in the refrigerator for later use.

We are thrilled to announce our speaker line-up for the 2015 Garden Bloggers Conference!
Nate Berkus will be keynoting at the Garden Bloggers Conference.

Bunny Williams is a designer with a modern vision, a sense of history, and the confidence to take the unexpected path. Both a trailblazer and a tastemaker, Williams' style is classic, but never predictable.
By day, Bunny is one of New York's most successful interior designers, a woman whose hours are filled with high-powered meetings, magazine photo shoots, and detailed consultations with clients. But when the week shades into Friday evening, Bunny can be found in the idyllic retreat of her Connecticut garden, the emotional center of her life and the source of perhaps her greatest creative efforts. After five days at the top of the design world, nothing means more to this warm and brilliant woman than to spend the next two with her hands in the dirt, musing about the effect of trees and flowers, paths and benches.
The passion Bunny feels for her garden is a deep one shared by countless others — in the country, in the suburbs, and even in the city. Gardening has become America's favorite pastime, but its vocabulary remains intimidating, even to those fluent in the language of style and design. Applying the lessons we've learned about interior space to the outdoors is a good idea, but it doesn't work without help: before we can decorate the outdoor room we need to understand its character, and few people can guide us to that understanding better than Bunny Williams.
Under owner and designer Alexa Hamptons's direction, the world famous firm Mark Hampton LLC has completed a wide range of designs for domestic and international projects, from New York City to Hangzhou, China, including apartments and large residences, private airplanes and yachts.
A perennial member of Architectural Digest's AD100 and House Beautiful's Top Designer list as well as a member of Elle Décor's A-list, Hampton's work is classic, traditional and eclectic. Her involvement in design goes far past her position as President and featured designer of Mark Hampton LLC; she is on the board of trustees for the New York School of Interior Design, the New York Landmarks Conservancy and the Institute for Classical Architecture.

He studied both horticulture and art history at The Ohio State University, giving him a unique perspective on every design project. Furthering his experience, he also studied landscape design in Northwest England. The aesthetic of English gardens made a profound impact on Nick, and many of his projects have ties to the classic design elements found in the English countryside.
Nick is an APLD-certified Designer, who has won numerous awards including Young Professional Of The Year from the Perennial Plant Association. A self-described "plant nerd," he is passionate about perennials and has a masterful understanding of how plants thrive in the Midwestern climate.

His social media presence of over 3 million Pinterest followers makes him a standout in the industry, and a sought-after public speaker. Author of the Thinking Outside The Boxwood blog, Nick has also been a featured writer for publications such as Garden Design magazine.

Nick lives in Central Ohio with his wife Allison their two children.
Allison McCullough has a unique ability to set forth a grand vision, then follow through on every detail. While her finance degree from Indiana University gives her a business-minded foundation, her background in retail marketing and interactive advertising helped shape her passion for bringing that business vision to life in print and online. As the head of marketing for McCullough's Landscape & Nursery, Allison ensures that the brand is known for thoughtful communications and special touches that can only come from a family-owned business.
Linda Ly is the voice behind the award-winning blog Garden Betty, a lifestyle website devoted to gardening, homesteading, sustainable living, and inspiring a meaningful and adventurous life. The blog began in 2010 as a personal project and soon earned the title of "Best Gardening Blog" from Country Living magazine. As a gardening expert for HGTV, Linda focuses on edible gardening, farm-to-table cooking, and backyard chicken-keeping.
In the four years since it launched, Garden Betty has grown into a top resource for gardeners from all over the world and countless climate zones, ranging from the US and Canada to Australia and England. Every month, over 200,000 visitors turn to the blog for tips and tricks, how-to guides, personal anecdotes, and growing inspiration from Linda's quarter-acre plot in Coastal Los Angeles. She has an affinity for unusual heirlooms and "ugly" vegetables, and is well known for crushing common food myths in the American eating culture.
This expertise led to her first book, The CSA Cookbook (Voyageur Press, 2015), which emphasizes a no-waste approach to cooking from a community supported agriculture box, farmers' market, or backyard bounty. The book features over 100 recipes for utilizing all the edible parts of the plant — think of it as a nose-to-tail approach for vegetables. Months before it was ever published, The CSA Cookbook was a Top 10 title in Amazon's "Whole Foods" category and held the #1 New Release spot for several weeks.
Prior to becoming an accidental full-time blogger and author, Linda was a freelance graphic designer and web developer with over 15 years of experience. These days, she's thrilled to add blogger and photographer to her many titles!
Sara Bendrick, as a landscape designer with a passion for being involved with her projects, hosting the DIY Network's 'I Hate My Yard' was the perfect fit! Sara Bendrick loves to interact and help homeowners realize the opportunity in their exterior spaces. With a DIY attitude her crew and Sara tackle tough backyards with the help of the homeowners to keep the budget in check. She guides the homeowners through the renovation process by tasking them with fun, creative and aesthetically pleasing projects to take back the yard once & for all.
Sara is a landscape designer by trade – born & raised in San Diego, California, and started at a young age with a passion for art, nature and an appreciation for anything living. She always had a passion for doing as opposed to watching. When she was young I would sew doll clothes out of her old T-shirts, draw, paint, and dig in the dirt. Her whole life has been about trial & error, figuring things out as she goes. When she was a little older shedecided she wanted chickens, so she read a book and got to it, luckily that was a success! Unlike her attempt at a 5000 Red-worm worm farm.
She studied at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and received a Bachelors of Science in Landscape Architecture. As a college student she immediately got her hands dirty in the field working different landscaping gigs, including being a forewoman for a landscape maintenance company. After college Sara honed her residential design skills by working for a design/build firm and eventually went out on her own and started her own landscape design business.
Sara loves the opportunity to combine nature with a built environment to create a sense of place. She has always been interested in horticulture & art, and designing landscapes allowing her to combine both of my passions. She feels very fortunate to have a career that can combine artistic expression & environmental awareness with purpose & function.

Vice President and Co-Founder, Latitude Beverage Co. ,
Ninety+ Cellars
Sitting in his cubicle one day in 2007, Brett realized that all he could expect to measurably accomplish in another decade of corporate confinement was a few more totally awesome PowerPoint presentations. Not satisfied with this vision of the future, he left the corporate world to pursue his MBA. Brett's Masters in Beverage Appreciation consisted of compiling a small wine collection in his son's closet; arguing that dry rose is a great choice for beer drinkers; and discovering that not everyone likes the wines he likes no matter how crazy good they are. Impressed by his bodacious wine skills, in 2009 Kevin asked Brett to help him to launch 90+ Cellars. Since then, he spends most of his days, evenings and weekends tasting, selecting, selling and promoting the wines of 90+ Cellars.
Brett has a bachelor's degree in Government from Harvard University and has successfully completed Boston University's Wine Studies Program. He lives in Brookline with his lovely wife, two sons and Norma, the wine lovin' English Bulldog.

Setting custom Admin theme from a Module
This is an old revision of the document!
Frontend templates are simple to change via Admin, from
default/default to
default/mytheme. The Admin templates take a little more work, but it's easy to do. This method was tested under Magento 18.104.22.168.
These steps apply within a Magento module. There are many tutorials on creating a basic module, so we will not repeat it here. All you need are the basic module directories, the module's xml file under
/app/etc/modules, and a skeleton
config.xml for your module.
Create a Theme Directory
Create a directory for your theme
/app/design/adminhtml/default/mytheme and copy any templates, layouts, and locale you need. This works the same way as the frontend themes.
Edit your config.xml
In your
config.xml file, under the
<config> section, add this:
- <admin>
- <design>
- <package>
- <name>mytheme</name>
- </package>
- <theme>
- <default>mytheme</default>
- </theme>
- </design>
- </admin>

My son was not an early talker at all, so I've been totally blown away by how Lydia has already started saying words. She says hi and bye, and has words for Mommy, Daddy, Jacob, and Daisy (our dog). She also has a word for milk and will point to something and say "zis?" like she's asking "what's this?" I swear she said "How ya doing?" to my husband today too lol. Oh, and she has said Ya-ya too (that's our nickname for her because our son couldn't say Lydia when she was born and that's how it came out). I think it's so awesome! Not all these words are actually THE word though - she just uses the same Lydia word for everything. I know these are words though, and it kind of makes me wonder if I didn't recognize some of Jacob's first words because they weren't "real" words.
What are your kids saying?
Also, any BTDT moms - did your second child talk sooner than your first? Do you think they REALLY had words sooner, or in retrospect, do you think you might not have picked up on those first baby words?

(PRBuzz.com) February 15, 2012 -- The ceramic tile floor online retailer BuyTile.com, which was newly acquired and relaunched by New York-based firm Apricot Tile LLC, recently announced its updated suite of shipping policies. Available online at http://www.BuyTile.com, the flooring experts are introducing a host of new shipping options designed to keep prices down for customers, no matter the size or weight of the order. With several staggered shipping price points based on the cost of each order, BuyTile's updates to its shipping prices are part of the company's recent holistic attempts to reform its customer service policies to be as beneficial and appealing as possible.
"Shipping ceramic tiles can be a tricky endeavor, because large tile orders make for extremely heavy packages, and that's what causes shipping prices to skyrocket so dramatically. We were hearing customer feedback about the lack of satisfaction with these high shipping rates, and it was clear to us that it wasn't fair to have our clientele pay so much to receive their tile flooring orders in the mail. While a lot of tile retailers pretend to reduce shipping costs and instead mark up the prices on their products, that's not something we're interested in doing. Our open and honest shipping policy means that customers never pay extra for their tiles, and no one will ever pay more than $249 for shipping, no matter how many tiles they order. Simply put, our priority is to keep prices low on our products and our shipping rates," said the CEO of the porcelain tile store, Marty Waisbrod.
The glass tiles merchant's new shipping policy operates on three price tiers: in the continental United States, orders on any of BuyTile's extensive inventory of tile flooring products between $1 and $500 ship for a flat rate of only $49, no matter the weight of the order. Tile floors shipments priced between $500 and $1,000 ship for $149, and orders greater than $1,000 ship for only $249. BuyTile guarantees that none of its customers will ever have to pay more than $249 on any order, no matter how expensive or how heavy the final tile shipment ends up being.
BuyTile's recent reconfiguration of its shipping policies is one in a series of alterations the company has made to better its customer service policies since relaunching under the ownership of Apricot Tile LLC. Customers who are curious about ceramic tile floor products but who are nervous to choose a product without seeing it in person are treated to complimentary samples of all of the flooring merchant's products, with additional free shipping on all sample orders. BuyTile also provides accessible customer support through the live chat feature on its website, and also makes its staff of tile flooring experts accessible via phone or email.
"When BuyTile relaunched, we not only rolled out hundreds of new flooring products at low prices, but we also made it a real priority to examine our customer service policies and tweak them for the better. Our reformed shipping policy is a feature we're proud of, and it's a policy that not only sets us apart from the competition but also makes it clear that we truly put our customers first," said Waisbrod.

BuyTile also maintains profiles at Facebook and Twitter, at http://www.facebook.com/BuyTilecomand http://twitter.com/BuyTileNewYork, respectively, as well as a glass tile blog at http://www.BuyTileBlog.com.
