(Feb 06, 2012) On November 21, 2011, the Kyrgyz President signed into law the amended version of the country's Law on Preventing and Countering Human Trafficking. (Law on Amendments to the Law on Preventing and Countering Human Trafficking Signed [in Russian], President of the Kyrgyz Republic website (Nov. 21, 2011).) The new Law is based on the principle of providing protection and assistance to victims of human trafficking and trade in humans and respecting the victims' rights (Law, art. 3).
The amended Law focuses on assistance measures to those who became the objects of trade in human beings. For example, article 21 of the Law regulates the creation of shelters for victims. It states that temporary living centers for human trafficking victims will be established in order to "offer civilized living conditions" to the victims and provide them with an opportunity to reestablish contact with their relatives or legal representatives. The Law states that those who declare themselves to be victims of trade in humans may stay in government-run shelters for a ten-day period. This stay can be extended for the entire duration of the investigation and trial of the person's case upon the request of the authorities or the victim (id. art. 21-4).
The stay in the shelter will be free of charge for the victim. The Law requires that the government involve public associations and NGOs in the operation of these shelters. If a victim of human trafficking is a child, child protection services will be informed immediately (id. art. 27). (Press Service of the KR President: Commentaries on the Law of the Kyrgyz Republic on Amendments to the Law "on Preventing and Countering Human Trafficking" [in Russian], 24.KG INFORMATION AGENCY (Nov. 21, 2011).)
Simultaneously, relevant provisions of the Kyrgyz Criminal Code were amended to include stricter punishment for human trafficking. (Mahinur Niiazova, Kyrgyzstan Makes Punishment for Human Trafficking Stricter [in Russian], 24.KG INFORMATION AGENCY (Nov. 11, 2011).) Article 124 of the Criminal Code, which establishes the sentencing framework for this crime, now provides for a term of imprisonment of from five to eight years for committing the offense of trafficking in humans. The increased minimum length of the prison term for commission of the crime automatically moved it into the category of "grave crimes," with stricter requirements for probation release, for conditions of serving the prison term, and for the length of the statute of limitations. (Law No. 204 of Nov. 10, 2011 [in Russian], BASE.SPINFORM.RU (last visited Jan. 31, 2012).)
The head of the Kyrgyz national office of the International Organization for Migration, Bermet Moldobayeva, stated that the crime of trafficking in humans is widely committed in Central Asia, but that almost 92% of human trafficking cases occur in the field of labor exploitation, and only about 8% constitute cases of sexual exploitation. According to Moldobayeva, 69% of victims are men who are often sold for slave labor abroad, as well to other regions within Kyrgyzstan. (Anastasiia Bengard, Bermet Moldobayeva: In Central Asia Only 8.2% of Human Trafficking Is Because of Sexual Exploitation [in Russian], 24.KG INFORMATION AGENCY (Nov. 29, 2011).)

Don't be Down with so many wonderful views
Posted: July 20, 2013|
CEFN Bryn rises to the west of the car park, so head in this direction but follow a dirt track next to woodland that stays low and to the right of the ridge. This is said to be the old coffin trail. The track continues at the base of Cefn Bryn towards Great Walterston Farm, next to which a lost village lies hidden beneath the fields.
Leaving the track here and following paths at the base of the hill, continue straight along an old track, past a quarry and cross the main road near a barrier. Join a broad path which curves left just below the high ground, giving you views over Broadpool and the Loughor Estuary. Reaching Arthur's Stone, turn left and eventually cross the road again. Bear left to the Rotary Jubilee monument. Take time to look all around for views in all directions. Looking west are four Downs — Rhossili, Hardings, Ryer's and Llanmadoc. On a clear day you can see Carmarthen Bay in the distance. To the north are the Brecon Beacons and south wonderful views over Oxwich Bay.
Head east along the ridge of Cefn Bryn. This bridleway is known as Talbot's Road and undulates over the contours for three miles back to Penmaen. As you walk along, watch far below for Nicholaston and the coast path bridge which Swansea Ramblers built.
The route over the top of Cefn Bryn also forms part of the long distance Gower Way which starts in Rhossili and climbs into the Swansea Valley to the northernmost part of the old lordship of Gower. Technically speaking, that makes everyone who lives in Swansea, west of the Tawe, a citizen of Gower but some may dispute that! See if you can spot the plaque that Prince Charles unveiled to inaugurate the Gower Way. Finally, the magnificent view of Three Cliffs Bay comes into view as you descend to the finish. Tomorrow meet 9.30am at Felindre Park and Share, off M4 J46 for a seven mile leisurely walk at Cwm Dulais. Next Saturday an easy four mile walk with sea panoramas starts from Baglan School at 11am.

These are part pastry, part muffins and totally awesome. Use leftover challah or chunks of day-old croissants for these. They are puffy, golden and satisfying and unlike any other muffin I know. I first saw them at a Second Cup Cafe and knew I would have to replicate my own edition.
This is a great and welcoming cake that is great to have on hand for unexpected company. It's as good on Day One as it is on Day Five. It's huge (but you can make two smaller cakes and freeze one) so expect a towering wonder or half the recipe. Up to you....or just keep it on hand, slice a hunk, brew the coffee and call a friend.
This cake is a cross between a muffin and a scone. It makes perfect coffee break snack and an superb brunch bread. It freezes well too. When someone calls and says they are dropping by in an hour - this is the one to make.
Serve warm with a maple-tinged caramel sauce. Big chunks of apple in a golden batter with a touch of spice. Great for breakfast, brunch or a summery, post BBQ dessert.
My painter is lactose intolerant. These are the sort of things you discover when a 3-day house painting job dawdles from June to just after Labor Day. It's like having an extra son/husband around. I wanted to bake our painter something flavorful but dair- free. So I created this cake which is wonderfully flavor rich, moist and gorgeous but lactose-free. It was intended for the painter to share at a company dinner with his out-of-town relatives. Instead, he offered a few slices and apparently hid the remaining, coveted slices in an empty paint can. Ok, I don't know that for sure. I do know he a) loved the cake and b) he hid some extra slices – but not in an empty paint can. This cake features a gloriously rich but butter and milk free batter, with a river of apples running through it and an elegant fondant ripple topping. I made two of these cakes – one for him and one for us. You know, I also ending up hiding a few pieces and considering I could whip up another one in seconds, that says something about how good this cake is.
Big, bold, moist, simple – hey, give me a slice! This cake calls for raisins and nuts but it also is nice with dried or fresh cranberries, chocolate chunks or really, absolutely wonderful with nothing added. The scent of this baking will bring crowds to your kitchen. I don't think I have ever made a cake that has a better perfume-while-baking than this cake! A drizzle of melted white chocolate, tinted with some cinnamon would be extra special on this cake, or a lemon glaze but the dusting of confectioners' sugar is perfect. Use your own fresh applesauce or jarred/canned unsweetened applesauce. Btw - my big secret is I rarely use a Bundt pan but I do adore Nordicware's (famed for Bundt pans) colorful non-stick angel food cake pans. It's what I bake honey cake in, chocolate, marble, and any sort of tall, grand hospitality cake.
Is this a scone in a loaf or an unusual quick bread? This is wonderful fresh or toasted. It is not quite cake; not quite a bread – somewhere inbetween. If you can, use Californian dried apricots.
This recipe has some 800 hits - it's a winer.
The pure buttery taste of this loaf is quite satisfying. This pound cake is traditionally glazed with a thin pink fondant but you can omit it or use a white or chocolate fondant glaze topping. You may wish to substitute chocolate chips for the currants if you prefer but only use one cup of chocolate chips (not two). This is just one buttery, solid poundcake from Australia that begs for a big pot of tea and a fluffy, vapid magazine or a great read-it-at-one-shot novel.
These are soda bread-for-two sort of soda breads, wonderfully rustic but taken up a notch with a touch of vanilla and an addictive Irish cream glaze. To give as gifts, wrap a couple of these in brown paper or a pastry box with a green ribbon, or in two's in a cello bag with a green ribbon and a side packet of Irish Breakfast tea.
These muffins are extraordinary no matter how you bake them but making them using Melitta coffee filter papers put them over the top (or get those new bigger muffin baking cups). Taste? Smooth bananas, with caramel, pecans, brown sugar and vanilla –a pure bouquet of autumnal sweetness.

Pretty good!
By Beauty

I purchased 3 of these all in different colors and do like them a lot. I like the deer foot application as well. One draw back is that there isn't much product in these tubes... I find I have to "pump" the wand in and out to and that is just after what seemed like a few regular applications. Still like it however. Like the other reviewer, please bring in ALL the COLORS available! As you can see you are down to only 2 colors left!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I need to mention that the Stockholm color is terrific! The BIG disappointment is that you no longer have it in stock! Please re-stock these lip creams and bring them back in ALL COLORS!
Love it!

I have purchased 2 of the NYX Matte Lip Creams for myself and love them! I use them on a regular basis. They glide on smoothly and do not look dried out as some matte lip products do. The staying power is reasonable... will last a couple hours at the most. Does not crack or dry out your lips which is always a plus! TSC please bring more shades! :)

Barry Geraghty heads for Sandown Park this afternoon for what has now become an all chase meeting.
With the hurdle course waterlogged and the chase course surviving an inspection yesterday afternoon, the ground is going to be incredibly testing.
And with the stiff uphill finish to cope with, horses with bags of stamina are going to be needed if the afternoon isn't to turn out to be a bookmaker's bonanza.
One may be Kudu Country, who according to the Irishman who blogging for At The Races wrote: "It's the first time I've sat on him, but he was 50 lengths behind Sprinter Sacre last April."
He adds that what gives him most encouragement is that the horse operates well on heavy ground and it's "certainly going to ride testing".
He's aboard Captain Conan (2.25) and the rider said he couldn't fault his two chase performances this season on soft ground adding: "The figures certainly point my lad's way."
His other ride for the Nicky Henderson stable is Roberto Goldback (3.35) in the three-mile Betfred Masters Handicap chase.
He claims that the horse would prefer better ground and that Keppols Hill is a big danger whilst in the 3.00 Mad Max has "had plenty of issues in his time and he is better suited by decent ground".
Roberto Goldback is 8.00 to win the 3.35, with Keppols Hill 2.87 and Mister Hyde 5.50.

The Oakland A's hope to use the same recipe the Giants did to win a title last year: terrific starting pitching, solid relief and some timely hitting from throughout the lineup.
The question is whether the A's have added enough power. The team failed to sign top free-agent targets Adrian Beltre and Lance Berkman, leaving Oakland to pursue Plan B with veteran slugger Hideki Matsui.
Nearly any addition will improve the club from a power perspective. The A's hit the third-fewest homers in the majors last season; Kevin Kouzmanoff led the team with 16.
The Coliseum doesn't help—the spacious stadium is known as a pitchers' park, limiting home run opportunities, particularly on chilly evenings. But that might not be a bad tradeoff considering the talent that Oakland's young rotation displayed last year. They clearly are comfortable pitching at home.
Oakland led the AL with a 3.56 ERA, despite relying on a very young staff after season-ending injuries to righthanders Justin Duchscherer and Ben Sheets. Trevor Cahill was named an All-Star at age 22; Dallas Braden, then 26, threw the 19th perfect game in major league history in May. Lefthander Brett Anderson, 23, had two stints on the disabled list with elbow trouble but won his final four decisions and posted a 2.80 ERA. Lefthander Gio Gonzalez, 25, went 15-9 with a 3.23 ERA.
The competition for the fifth spot includes righthanders Brandon McCarthy and Rich Harden, and lefthander Josh Outman.
Closer Andrew Bailey had a minor cleanup operation on his elbow in September and was sidelined after experiencing discomfort in the joint last week. If Bailey has to start the season on the disabled list, newcomers Brian Fuentes and Grant Balfour are capable of handling the ninth-inning duties. Michael Wuertz, Craig Breslow and Joey Devine—all injury risks—round out a solid relief corps.
Injuries are the one constant from the pitching side to the offensive side: Outfielders Coco Crisp, Ryan Sweeney and Conor Jackson all missed long stretches last season, and second baseman Mark Ellis and catcher Kurt Suzuki also were on the DL. Shortstop Cliff Pennington had offseason surgery on his left shoulder, and Kouzmanoff had back trouble near the end of the 2010 season. For Oakland to compete, the injuries must be reduced dramatically.
Right fielder David DeJesus, acquired from the Kansas City Royals, is healthy after thumb surgery but doesn't have much power. Left fielder Josh Willingham, acquired from the Washington Nationals, hit 24 homers in 2009 but was limited to 114 games last season by a knee injury that ultimately required surgery. Matsui, who hit 21 homers last season for the Los Angeles Angels, takes over the DH role from Jack Cust.
Another change for Oakland: With center fielder Rajai Davis (and his team-leading 50 steals) now playing for the Toronto Blue Jays, the team likely will do less running. Still, Crisp stole a career-high 32 bases last season.
The infield defense is strong all the way around. Ellis and Pennington proved to be a good double-play combination, and although he made 12 errors, Kouzmanoff is still a solid defensive player. Barton's range, athleticism and throwing make him one of the league's best defensive first basemen. Suzuki works well with the pitching staff and has led the team in RBIs the past two seasons.
— Susan Slusser, for Sporting News

5. RHP Brandon McCarthy. No GS in majors in '10; 22 GS since '08
RHP Andrew Bailey. 51 SVs, 1.70 ERA in 2 MLB seasons
Sporting News baseball writer Stan McNeal analyzes the A's:
1. Daric Barton won't lead the league in walks again. Two reasons: Adam Dunn is the AL now and he typically walks 100-plus times a season. More significantly, as much as the A's like Barton's on-base percentage, they want him to be more aggressive in run-producing situations.
2. The fifth starter will remain a revolving spot. Rich Harden was shut down twice during spring training, to the surprise of few. Brandon McCarthy, the front-runner to open the season as the No. 5, is another fragile arm. And Josh Outman still has to prove he is completely recovered from Tommy John surgery in 2009.
3. It won't matter who takes the fifth. The first four starters all will flourish again as they gain another year of experience and, of course, because they get to pitch half of their games in the pitcher paradise known as the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum.
Sporting News prediction: The A's will make it a three-team race in the AL West for much of the season and finish over .500—but in third place.

As P.S. 84 returned from a week without classes Monday, the Grand Street school's principal Sereida Rodriguez-Guerra combed through a list of socks, baby food, warm coats and school supplies that a Rockaway Beach school needs while recovering from Hurricane Sandy.
Her elementary school had "adopted" P.S. 317Q, a three-year-old school on Beach 110th Street that was devastated by Hurricane Sandy and remains closed, Rodriguez-Guerra said, noting that the principal there, Dana Gerendasi, had been her colleague at another Brooklyn school.
"We just got off the phone, and she was telling me everything they need," she said of Gerendasi, who previously worked at P.S. 250 on Montrose Avenue with Rodriguez-Guerra. "We're already getting bags from parents dropping off donations in the front."

Slimline Twills 39 41
need additional colors I have been wearing these pants for years, and they continue to look good after many washings. Please consider new colors such as a mustard, burgandy or a purple/eggplant. November 13, 2013
Great traveling pants I took these on a 10 day trip to Europe. I am 5, 1" and weigh about 115. They fit really well and are super comfortable. Not the most flattering, but that's fine for everyday travel. These are the first pair of "travel" pants that actually fit me! October 27, 2013
Very Nice These are great pants for anytime. The fabric is a very nice light weight twill that travels well, is wrinkle-free, & dresses up well enough for evening. Love the longer length - those 30" inseams just don't work for me! The waist is a little more gathered than I expected, due to the elastic, but overall these are great. Very comfortable & definitely a keeper. September 20, 2013
Good practical pants I purchased two pairs; one black and one khaki. For some reason the khaki pants hang a little better than the black, but overall they both fit well, especially around the waist - no extra waist band. September 5, 2013
They fit and are non-fattening! Finally, some slacks that fit well. They sit at my waist, fit through my hips, and aren't huge in the legs. They are also long enough (I'm 5'8"). I bought a pair in another color because these fit so well. August 19, 2013
NIce Overall These are comfy trousers, and seem to be well made. I have them in olive and black. The material is slightly sueded, which makes for comfort and a soft touch, but all sorts of lint tend to show up on the dark material. Beyond that, I have no complaints. August 5, 2013
Wardrobe Go To I have worn these pants for years now. They fit well and the waist is comfortable. June 13, 2013
Very disappointed Because these pants fit so perfectly, I wanted to love them. I didn't. . I wasn't wearing them very long before I looked in the mirror and saw how wrinkled and messy they became. I know they are cotton, but some twills just do better than others. I have even had the same style, color in different sizes in 2 different sizes in another twill style with two totally different experiences.: one was great and the other not! So,I guess, it just depends upon the fabric used by the manufacturer. I wish they wore better as the fit is the best! May 30, 2013

Mr. Fizz Homemade Seltzer
I am always trying to serve food that my grandmother would recognize. Which is why I splurged when I stumbled across this stainless steel Mr. Fizz Rechargeable Seltzer Bottle at Bridge Kitchenware in New York City.
To make homemade seltzer, you fill the stainless steel container up with water. Load a CO2 cartridge and turn the charger holder until it pierces the cartridge. The piercing pin will release the CO2 from the charger into the canister. Then you shake up the bottle and let it sit in the fridge to get cold. When the water is cold you dispense soda by pressing on the lever.
It makes old fashioned seltzer which has small bubbles. And Mr. Fizz even has recipes to make your own soda. I like the retro look of the stainless steel bottle in my fridge and being able to offer sparkling water to everyone. My kids like having soda.

Read Poems by
Bianca Reyes
I hear you smile, the sweetest creases it brings
Just like reverberation from the finest strings
I gasp in awe, not to miss a moment
Craving to keep myself in containment
Memory lapses and flashes are outdone
From the greatest downfall I will shun
To see that that beam intrude into nix
Facing the shame I will not affix
Unlawful scourge that has begotten thee
I scamper away to cease to see

Rutherfordton set to welcome home 50/70 All-Stars
For over a week the citizens of Rutherford County supported the Rutherfordton-Chase 50/70 All-Stars from over 2,600 miles away as they played in the Intermediate World Series in Livermore, Calif. Tonight they'll get a chance to show their support in person.
Businesses everywhere will display welcome signs and blue balloons for the local team that made it home late Tuesday night. The team will be recognized tonight at the Rutherfordton Town Council meeting where they will like adopt a resolution in honor of the team.
Following the council meeting, a public recognition will take place at the Rutherford County Courthouse lawn at 8 p.m.
"To have a team represent Rutherford County and Rutherfordton so well is unimaginable," Rutherfordton town Councilmen and District 1 Little League Administrator Terry Cobb said. "I can't wait to hear all the stories that the boys are bringing back with them."
The recognitions give the public a chance to connect with a team that they could only watch on the internet and read about in the newspaper.
"We watched every play," Cobb said. "We jumped, hollered, yelled and clapped as if we were there."
It's also a chance to recognize the youth of Rutherford County.
"Rutherford County has great citizens and these kids are our future leaders," Cobb said. "When these kids grow up and decide where to spend their lives, I hope they remember this recognition and come back to lead this county."

Canoe Freestyle
Testing Stamina and Rapid Manoeuvring
- Zoom
- Gilles Reboisson
Canoe Freestyle is a whitewater Canoe Disicpline where the paddler performs a range of acrobatic tricks and manoeuvres on a river feature such as a wave or hole. Canoe Freestyle, also referred to as Playboating, is enjoyed by many as a recreational sport. At the top level, Canoe Freestyle athletes participate in competitions both nationally and internationally. The sport is constantly moving forward with paddlers with new spectacular moves emerging at each competition, year in, year out.
Video presentation of Freestyle: www.facebook.com/video.php
Canoe Freestyle through the Ages
Walt Blackader is perhaps single-handedly responsible for the emergence of the Canoe Freestyle discipline. In 1968 Walt, an avid sportsman, developed his own techniques for entering rapids sideways and backwards. He and his friends went on to make especially nimble fibreglass kayaks and many other kayakers followed Blackader's lead. The new Canoe sport grew into what was initially known as Rodeo.
Along with the 1980s and the emergence of other extreme, freestyle sports such as snowboarding, wakeboarding and skating, came a rise in popularity in the recreational level of Canoe Freestyle.
The competitive side of the sport was popularised in the 1990s. But it is really in the last decade that the sport has exploded and that's mainly due to the incredible developments in boat design. Many Canoe Freestyle athletes are now in the business, designing boats for athletes and playboaters around the world. Most notably is US-based Jackson Kayak, headed by Eric Jackson; four-time Canoe Freestyle World Champion and USA Canoe Slalom National Champion in 1990. Jackson Kayak is just one company that has produced the smaller more manoeuvrable boats that we see on the Field of Play today.

Sundance Film Festival
Sundance review: 'Low Down'
"Low Down"
U.S. Dramatic
*** (three stars)
Powerful performances by John Hawkes, Elle Fanning and Glenn Close grace "Low Down," director Jeff Preiss' unvarnished depiction of a jazz musician's heroin addiction seen through the eyes of his daughter. Fanning plays Amy-Jo Albany, who co-wrote the film (with Topher Lilian) based on her memoir, at ages 13 and 15 -- living in mid-'70s Hollywood with her father, acclaimed pianist Joe Albany (John Hawkes), who dodges his parole officer and tries to fight off his desire to shoot up. The movie's narrative meanders through the offbeat characters Amy-Jo encounters in their rundown apartment building -- hookers and pornographers and other musicians. The movie's strength comes from the byplay between Hawkes' troubled Joe and Fanning's observant Amy-Jo, and a winning turn by Close as Joe's sympathetic but fed-up mother.
-- Sean P. Means
"Low Down" screens again at the 2014 Sundance Film Festival: Monday at 6:30 p.m. at the Rose Wagner Performing Arts Center, Salt Lake City; Wednesday at 5:30 p.m. at the Library Center Theatre, Park City; Thursday at noon at the Yarrow Hotel Theatre, Park City; Friday at 8:30 a.m. at the Prospector Square Theatre, Park City; and Saturday at 3 p.m. at the Sundance Screening Room, Sundance resort.

Roberts looks forward to playing with Yankees
Hall of Fame voter Mark Zuckerman on the 2014 class
Since news of Brian Roberts signing with the New York Yankees became common knowledge last month, Roberts has been especially quiet. Never the most accessible of Orioles, Roberts made no comments on his move to New York.
On Wednesday, Roberts spoke to the YES Network about his new team.
"I don't think they need a whole lot of sales pitch most of the time. When you have the opportunity to play for such a storied franchise and an organization that is always going to give you a chance to win a World Series every year, it doesn't take a whole lot. As a kid, I think so many of us dream of putting that uniform on at some point," Roberts said. "I had the incredible opportunity to play so many years in one city, and it was just time to move on, I think."
There are many questions still to be asked of Roberts. Did he expect to be back in Baltimore? Is he hurt that he's not?
It was time for both the Orioles and Roberts to move on. He had homes in both Baltimore and Sarasota, but in the interview said he's not displeased about staying in the AL East.
[RELATED: Weeks wants to contend at second for Orioles]
"It wasn't necessarily the first thing on my checklist with my agent. But I certainly enjoy the American League East. It's all I've known. I'm very familiar with the parks, and the cities, and the teams, and the players and the organizations, and I think it's the best division in baseball. I enjoy that challenge every day. But then, when you look at the history in our division and you look at Boston and New York, they're great destinations to play also. For this to come about the way it did – I certainly didn't see this coming, heading into the offseason -- but I'm excited for the opportunity," Roberts said.
The Yankees aren't scheduled to come to Baltimore until July 11, and Roberts is sure to receive a warm welcome.

Veto override
If the governor vetoes a bill, it does not necessarily mean that the bill is dead.
A two-thirds vote of all the members of both houses will override the governor's veto.
If the governor vetoes a bill when the legislative session is over, the legislators come back for a three-day
veto session
about two weeks after the governor's last action.

Willards' tax plan sounds like President Gilligan's tax plan. And we actually have some who have the gall to say that bush isn't running in November. Tax cuts for the rich and deregulation. Where have we heard that before? Do republicans still have a chance to nominate another candidate? Inquiring minds want to know.
I am having so much fun on this beautiful, sunny day. August 1st, a stalled economy, and the Big O actually widening his lead over Willard. WOW, this poll was taken even before Willard's world tour debacle. The Big O should be leading by double digits by this time next month. Oh yeah, did Willard release those tax returns yet?? He can always wait until October to release them.
Squirrel, that's all they've ever had.
Excellent analysis. Each day that goes by, is just another day that Willard is going to be hammered about his tax returns. Latest news is that he didn't pay any federal taxes for 10 years. Democrats can say anything they want to in regards to speculation on Willard's returns, and the only way they'll be dis-proven is if Willard releases his returns. But if he releases the returns, the contents will make him unelectable. What a catch 22 for the poor slob.
With an economy in the state it's in today, even Boo Boo the Fool should be leading Obama. But alas, the republicans chose to select Gordon Gekko as its nominee and he will be defeated in a a landslide. Forgive Deerhunt, his candidate, Donald Trump, was embarrassed off of the political stage long ago.
"Except he didn't drop in the polls- look back to June's Quinnipiac poll- the one quoted here- and you will see that Obama had a NINE point lead in Ohio. Now it's six."
There you go, play with them numbers Ms. Cleo. If I read your post correctly, you're saying that Willard is still trailing the Big O. Thank you for that bit of commentary my friend. Where in the hell is Cooter with his countdown? Hopefully he's in good health because I'd like to see him nice and healthy on November 6th, so he can see Obama's landslide victory.
"The republicans are energized, even in the face of a north-eastern liberal candidate like romney, they are motivated to defeat obama no matter what, because obama is a disaster as president."
Come on, keep it real Dave. republicans are energized by hatred for Obama and that's it. A certain segment of the republican party is steeped in their hatred of the O and they'd vote for a rattlesnake. Sane Americans may not like how slowly the economy is recovering, but if they want to make a change, they have to have something worth making a change for. Willard hasn't given anybody a reason to vote for him and that's why he's going to see Obama wipe the floor with him on November 6th. I didn't think it was possible for republicans to run a weaker candidate then Bob Dole, but I was wrong.
Awwwww, this sounds like Willard's final epitaph. You can call him KING HUSSEIN, if you must, but he'll still be America's president on November 7th. The price republicans pay for running a walking gaffe machine as their nominee. Went on the world stage and found out the rest of the world doesn't like him either. Being rich doesn't make you a good politician. All I know is that I'm enjoying this so much because it's the death of the republican party by a thousand paper cuts. I LOVE IT!!!
Give it a rest Dave. I guess on November 7th, you and like minded republicans will still be digging deep into the numbers to try and figure out how Willard got beat by a 57 state landslide. The race was always Willard's to lose with such a moribund economy, but Willard is so putrid as a candidate, that as the race goes on, he's actually losing ground. By September, the O should be leading by double digits. There is talk that Willard didn't pay any federal taxes for 10 years, and if that's true, the race may be over in late August. As he continues to sink further in the polls, old Willard will be forced to release those returns.
Let's keep it real my friend. There's going to be a lot of pressue in the next 98 days for Willard to put out more tax returns. Come on now, this is me that you're talking to. Do you honestly believe that Willard is the type to hold up under pressure???? He's a wimp and he's going to come apart like a cheap seersucker suit when the heat builds even higher. When you have your own party telling you to release more returns, that can be significant campaign fodder. He'll release the returns and Americans will see that he's a Gordon Gekko crook.........END OF CAMPAIGN.
Wow Willard's campaign is now cussing out reporters in Poland. This has to be the most disastrous world stage tour any presidential candidate has ever embarked on. Three countries, three botched, debacles. If I was Willard, I'd be making lying commercials and anything else underhanded I could think of. It must be debillitating for republicans to know that their hatred for the Big O is so great, and their presidentital candidate is so weak. Or as Newsweek put it.......
Sad. So so sad!
You just get me those tax returns I've been asking for
Mr. and Mrs. John Q. Public
"when he's off prompter he's speaks 'his truth'."
Yes, we have a lad returning from his European vacation, who sure as hell can vouch for your words. He has vomit all over the front of his suit, and the backside of his trousersa are soiled and smelly. Sorry my friend but you'll need more then this as a candidate to beat the O this November. Like Ann Coulter said...If we don't elect Chris Crispycreme, Romney will be the nominee, and we'll lose.
Sorry D train, but there'll be no draconian, austerity measures in this country. Spend, spend, spend unitl the private sector kicks into high gear as far as hiring is concerned. All I know is that you supported Donald Trump and I can't recall what his policies were to turn America around. My bad, he was too consumed with birther issues.
"Economics isn't right wing or left wing. Economic growth is promoted by policies that encourage business expansion and investment in business. Higher taxes and increased regulation work against this."
The same eaxct BS that the republican party has been shoveling out for the last 30 years. Please tell us all when was the last time that trickledown economics worked in this country? We've seen the republican way give us the first and second place finishes as far as worst economies are concerned. That may be good in the Olympics, but it's terrible in economics.
Yeah whatever. What would the unemployement rate be with those 700,000 government workers that republicans threw out into the streets? When a governement employee spends his money, does it go to some type of alternate universe economy? How about their taxes? Do they go to pay down some other country's debt? While this President has tried to put people back to work, regardless of republican obstruction, republicans have ben doing thier best to put workers out onto the streets. I don't know if I'd be running my mouth talking about the 4.4 million private sector jobs that have been created on Obama's watch, when you same people have been complicit in job decimation.
Save the tea party spiel for someone stupid enough to buy into it. Why is it that this administration is the first administration in 4 decades to be denied the right to hire workers while the economy is struggling? Every President since Ford, we've seen the government kick in until the private sector hiring was robust enough to stand on its own? It's idiotic, republican, extremist tea party thought that has crippled this countriy's recovery. When this country needs every job it can get, republicans have gone out of their way to force close to 700,000 Americans out into the unemployment line. But then they whine like little girls when it comes to the deficit and what we can't afford. Think how much better the economy would be with those additional 700,000 jobs thrown into the pot. That's a tax base that just fell off the face of the earth. republicans and their imbecilic fiscal remedies are what saw America go into the can in the first place. They should just sit down,be embarassed and keep their mouths shut when it comes to the economy and anything else fiscal.
Sorry bub, but Jimmy Carter has the Camp David Peace Accords to hang his hat on. A major accomplishment whose agreement is still in effect to this very day. Can ANYONE list any major achviements during President Gilligans 2 terms in office??? We know about all of the misery during his 2 terms, but how about major accomplishements?? Didn't think so, and that makes President Willie Gilligan, the worst president not only in this country's history, but in the history of the world.
"The war in Iraq was ended ahead of obama getting elected, with the Status of Forces Agreement, under the Bush Administation."
That's a lie! The war in Iraq ended in May of 2003. When President Gilligan boarded a battleship that was adorned with "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED" banners. Look bub, Gilligan left office with an 18% approval rating and 2 Iraqi shoes thrown his way. The imbecile had no major accomplishments during his 2 terms in office. That's why you'll find Jimmy Hoffa before you'll find bush during this presidential campaign. What a miserable failure that idiot was.
Rassmussen is a right wing polling site Uncle Jed. An NBC/Wall Street Journal poll has the Big O up by 6 and up by 8 in the swing states. Good luck with your Rassmussen!

In the brilliant opening story, "The Shared Patio", a woman longs to share her neighbor's life, but learns that her fantasy of him has no resemblance to reality. In "The Swim Team", a young woman teaches three elderly citizens in a town with no water how to swim. A man who works at a leather factory gets set-up by his co-worker for a date that never arrives in "The Sister". In "Something That Needs Nothing", a young woman's job at a peep show changes her identity in the eyes of her friend, allowing their relationship to take a different course.
In these stories, Miranda July shows a remarkable skill for inhabiting the hearts and minds of a varied cast of characters, imbuing them with a tenderness and humanity that is the mark of a great writer.
©2007 Miranda July; (P)2007 Simon & Schuster Audio
"One of the best"
Having listened to audiobooks for over twenty years, this is one of the best. Wanted to re-start it after it was finished. The author paints unbelievable secnarios, that stretch the imagination. Ordinary thoughts suddenly have extraordinary outcomes. Characters are complex, disturbing and likeable. It has been a along time since I have been so in awe of sheer writing.
A wonderful collection of stories that could only have been written by Miranda July. The entire audiobook is filled with her unique brand of awkward comedy. As strange as it may be, it almost feels organic, as if these were real stories, filled with details.
No one else could have read it as well as she did. Must have for any Miranda July fan.
I have the best job ever, they pay me for reading :) I manage book clubs, from the book selection, to the discussions.
"You'll never get what you expect"
This is a great audiobook
She has the capacity of twisting the stories in a way you never know what to expect. Her characters are deeply complex.
One of the best things of the book is the fact the author is reading her stories.
It is a book you can listen story by story, but you need to listen to the complete story before pausing it.
"A little depressing, but good literature"
As I said, it was depressing. It's well-written and interesting actually. It made me sad, but I listened to the whole thing bc it was good.
"Like David Foster Wallace"
Yes because Miranda July describes people's interior mental states as well as anyone besides David Foster Wallace. On that score, she's even better than George Saunders.

This report distinguishes between two strategies for boosting teaching effectiveness: using selective recruitment, retention, and "deselection" to attract and keep effective teachers while removing ineffective ones ("movin' it") and enhancing effectiveness through professional development ("improvin' it").
Key Findings and/or Recommendations
=School systems should combine both policies to maximize increases in teaching effectiveness.
=In recent years, published studies show substantial improvements in teaching and student learning from some forms of professional development.
=Policymakers should incentivize school systems to eradicate ineffectual and unproven professional development, invest in proven models, and anticipate and prevent hurdles to implementation.
=Districts should conduct comprehensive audits of all of their investments in professional development and ensure that teachers receive meaningful feedback.

Anyone ever tried out this pit barrel cooker? I'm almost curious enough to buy it, but Im wondering if any of the community has experimented with it?
If not, maybe it'd be a good thing for the folks at SEHQ to test for us (ahem, Kenji.)
Ive found a couple recipes on the site for baked beans, but I am wondering if anyone out there has a favorite recipe?
(i mean making baked beans starting with the dried beans; not just opening a few cans and adding stuff to them)
So I noticed at whole foods they were selling the turkey giblets. I was naturally very excited since digging into the cavity and seeing what I can find is one of the best parts of cooking the turkey. So being able to buy them separate was awesome (and only $1.89/lb!).
So now I just need some ideas of what I can do with 2.5 lbs of livers, hearts, etc. Something besides gravy, please. Any ideas?
I'm interested in using a savory tart recipe I came across on this site recently. Specifically, the gluten free tomato tart. If I dont have a tart pan, can I use a glass pie dish? If so, what adjustments do I need to make? Thanks!
I saw one recipe from Chichi for a stew with pig snouts and legumes, but I was wondering if anyone out in the community had a different recipe for pig snouts. Thanks!
I got a few quails the other day, and now, never having actually eaten one, and wondering how to best prepare them. I tend toward mexican and asian foods primarily, and I don't own a grill. Any advice would be appreciated!
I'm wondering what I can do with some recently-purchased Filipino longanisa. Fried rice is obvious, but does anyone else out there have a more interesting use for the stuff? Thanks!
I got pack of yuba (dried tofu skins) and I need a recipe for them. They're the full sheet kind, not the rolled up sticks. Anyone have any experience with these or know some good recipes? Thanks!
I saw this bottle of ume plum vinegar on the cheap at the grocery store, so I picked some up on a whim. Anyone have some recipe ideas and/or uses for it?
I'm contiuously coming across recipes calling for hoja Santa (a Mexican herb). Does anyone have a good substitute or even better, know a place to get some? I'd be willing to to give a dried variety a try, but penzeya nor amazon haw any. Suggestions?
I'm inspired by Alton Brown's flowerpot smoker. It looks like a fun project, plus an ingenious way to save a few hundred bucks (For reference, see http://www.naffziger.net/blog/2008/07/05/the-alton-brown-flower-pot-smoker/)
Does anyone have experience building one or using one? Any comments on the sourcing of the components or effectiveness of the homemade smoker itself? Thanks!
There's a special on silky chicken this week in my town ($3.99/lb). I've never had it, and I'm trying to decide if I want to buy it. Anyone have experience with it? What's it taste like, any special preparation/use for it, and is it discernibly different from other fryer chickens that cost $1/lb?
I had an awesome little snack on my last visit to the Asian market, khao Tom mud (basically, sticky rice and a banana steamed inside a banana leaf). I'd like to recreate these at home. A google search yields recipes that are vary dramatically from one another. So I'm asking anyone here for a tried and true recipe. Thanks!
So I'm living with a vegetarian, and yesterday I cooked a half ham. So naturally, have about 6 lbs leftover. What can I possibly do with all this ham? (note: I have celiac so don't suggest "make a sandwich.")
I saw some cow lips at my local mexican market and I'm intrigued. Anyone have any insight on cooking them?
I just got a bottle of Absinthe, and after preparing the traditional way, I'm now looking for some mixing ideas. Flavors/liquors that go with it? Recipes? Thanks!
I bought some antelope spare ribs yesterday (4.99/lb - a steal) but I've no experience with them and google is useless. Help me please, SE'ers.
I love tofu, but I almost always cook it. My understanding is that silken tofu is usually eaten raw. What are some ideas/recipes for silken tofu?
I got a couple quinces yesterday and I'm looking for some fresh ideas on how to use them. Something other than make jam. Anyone got an awesome quince recipe?
Hey all! I was thinking about cooking some birria this weekend, and so I began to hunt a recipe. I then realized that googling recipes is a real crapshoot as far as getting a good one goes. So rather than waste time doing that, I pose this challenge to you all, dedicated SE'ers. Give me your best birria recipe! (please)
Hey all. I'm looking for a good menudo recipe. ChiChi had posted the Rick Bayless' recipe (always the best source for mexican), but the recipe is incomplete on the site (computer glitch?) -- its missing step 3. So does anyone else have a good one?
I bougth some sticky/sweet thai rice last weekend with the intention to make some of that delicious sticky rice this week. I've sinced found out that a rice cooker wont produce a very authentic dish. This is traditional, and according to a Laotian I work with, is absolutely necessary. Anyone out there have one of these contraptions and does it produce a remarkably different result? Worth my $15?
I have a few questions about making beef jerky without a dehydrator. First, whats the best cut of meat to use? I've seen recipes with flank steak, bottom sirloin, rump roast and more. Also, whats a good temperature for my oven (and how long does it take)?
Thanks in advance!
I just bought a new butane torch on a whim. I'd like to get more use out of it than just créme brûlée. Does anyone have any ideas or interesting uses for it?
I visited my asian market the other day and picked up a pound of these tiny blue anchovies. They're only about 1- 11/2" inches long and uncut (i.e., the whole fish is there). Anybody know how to cook these little guys?

Rocky Patel Vintage 1992 Churchill 5 Pack
7 x 48 - Dark Natural - Pack of 5
Vintage By Rocky Patel 1992 Churchill cigars are handmade with a tantalizing blend of 7-yr-aged Dominican & Honduran fillers with a dark, vintage '92 Sumatra wrapper. The smoke is medium-bodied, creamy, perfectly-balanced, and teeming with rich tobacco flavor. Outstanding! Try 5 now.
Medium bodied with satisfying balance. Quite acceptable, but the high price and box pressing are discouraging.
It's a good medium cigar. this cigar give you a lot of smoke, a little pepper flavor, sweet flavor, smooth draw and coffee flavor. I like it alot...
I heard that Rocky draw tests every cigar they make. Must not test these. I have smoke a lot of these and a good percentage draw so tight that you can't smoke them. If the draw is good, they are as good as any cigar made. If not, you wasted your money.

I've seen NHL hockey players being superstitious by not touching the conference trophy because they want to win and hoist the Stanley Cup.

A teenager accused of brutally attacking a woman in the bosque is still on the loose.
Albuquerque police hope a new sketch will help lead them to the suspect.
Many who frequent the bosque are eager to take a good look at him.
Albuquerque police have released a sketch of a teenager accused of sexually assaulting a woman at knifepoint in the bosque.
It happened in broad daylight on Sunday, June 16th.
SWAT members searched the area near Tingley and Central, but he was gone.
The woman told police she was walking along the river when the man approached her, first asking for money.
"Wow. Doesn't look familiar to me but I mean... I'll definitely keep my eyes open," said Janelle Sandoval.
He's between 16 and 20 years old, about 5'7", 145 pounds, with some sort of tattoo on his chest.
He was last seen on a black and white mountain bike.
"I mean that kind of looks like half of everybody here you know. That's scary," said Sean Trujillo.
Police think the attacker took off west on Central Avenue.
If you know how he is, call Crime Stoppers at 843-STOP.

Pinterest finally comes to Android, iPad
Good news for mobile users of fast-growing social networking site Pinterest: it's finally coming to devices running Google's Android and Apple's iPad.
The new app for Android in particular involved a full redesign so Android users can take full advantage of the social network's features, tech site Mashable noted.
"Announced at a summer party at Pinterest's new San Francisco headquarters, the Android app represents a complete redesign of the app from the ground up, this time designed specifically for Android," it said.
It said the Android app has been in the works for some time, and was even rumored to be coming late last month at Google's I/O developers' conference.
Pinterest's app for the iPad was also relatively new as it already has an app for Apple's iPhone.
Mashable noted Pinterest is still relatively new, as shown by its launching of new features by talking about them on its Facebook wall and then waiting for comments.
But it also said Pinterest has received many requests for an Android app.
"The requests are so common that it has become a Pinterest in-office joke with each launch: How long will it take for someone to ask for an Android app?" it said.
Last May, Pinterest raised $100 million in a round of funding that values the company at $1.5 billion. Originally an invite-only service, on Aug. 8 Pinterest went public for everyone without an invitation.
Pinterest for Android is available now from Google Play. Pinterest for iPad and the updated iPhone app are available now from the App Store. — TJD, GMA News

ICBA Supports Proposed Accounting Changes
Washington, D.C. (April 1, 2009)—The Independent Community Bankers of America (ICBA) today voiced strong support for Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) proposals that would make other-than-temporary-impairment (OTTI) guidance more operational and provide additional guidance for fair value measurements. ICBA is urging FASB not to delay action on the proposals, particularly the OTTI issue because current guidance does not foster a transparent view of community bank investments and true financial conditions.
In its comment letter to FASB, ICBA voiced strong support for a proposal that would separate OTTIs on debt and equity securities into two components, one for credit losses and one for other losses. Only the credit loss portion would go through earnings. Current guidance has resulted in an overstatement of losses that have not or may not occur, using capital that could otherwise support further lending.
ICBA agreed that the effective date should be for periods after March 15, 2009 and strongly urged FASB to allow restatements or an opportunity to "true-up" OTTIs recorded in prior periods to enable users to more easily compare statements for different periods.
ICBA urged FASB not to delay action on these guidance changes that would improve financial statement transparency.
"ICBA supports these proposals because they would improve transparency in community banks' financial statements and we have provided recommendations to further improve guidance," said Karen Thomas, ICBA executive vice president of government relations. "Community banks support better OTTI guidance both as preparers and users of financial statements."
FASB will vote on the proposed changes tomorrow.To read ICBA's comment letter, visit www.icba.org.

"Time seemed to sit still as we neared the timeless Balinese luxurious resort Amandari, passing through lush vegetation before we arrived at the welcoming open-air thatched roof pavilions of the resort's lobby." "It was the most beautiful and unique welcoming experience. We felt right at home…." "The Amandari experience is all about the people. We felt at home the moment we arrived with the welcoming smiles."
"I had a serene relaxing view 90 degree view of the Ayung River Gorge and surrounding paddy fields. I could see local people going about their daily lives and although we never met I was living as a guest in their community." "The luxury of this experience was being there, no television no gadgets just an iPod with relaxing music… " "The pleasure comes with confidence to do nothing more than relax and enjoy."
"For 25 years the resort and the farming community have been interdependent, sharing people and produce, preserving culture and ideas…..Ubud might have changed, but this still feels very much like timeless Bali."
"Amandari remained the ultimate Ubud experience. Quietly finessed over the years, yet barely changed…..the suites still make me gasp…..they are huge airy and beautiful and are so at one with the landscape that you wonder which came first."
"….the whole point of Amandari is that you are part of the community, part of the old Bali that is increasingly rare these days."
"There are no boundaries. The resort merges with the landscape and the life of the village and you find yourself marveling at the untouched jungle, the extraordinary tropical blooms, the thatched lanterns creating a soft glow over your infinity-edge pool."
"It is a true idyll"
"Such is Aman; a family of sorts that gets into your blood all too easily."
"Views of the rice terraces of the Ayung River Gorge are part of the magic at this 'beautiful property'."
"The hotel is like a little local village where local people cross it on their way to the fields or children dance or play music in their lessons after school…….luxury style means to know where you are and take care of local communities and traditions."

Syntax Highlighters
Syntax Highlighters available from this web site were developed for Tera Term Macro language. We created two types of highlighters:
Syntax Highlighter with Syntax Completion Proposal
LogMeTT and TTLEditor have built-in Syntax Highlighter and Syntax Completion Proposal functionality. To avoid recompiling LogMeTT and TTLEditor binaries every time new commands are added to Tera Term Macro language, syntax specific information is kept separate from the source code of these applications and stored in plain text files KeyFile.ini and SynComp.pro. Both these files are included into LogMeTT installation package and reside in Tera Term installation directory if user chose to install LogMeTT. KeyFile.ini and SynComp.pro should be overwritten when newer version of the files becomes available.
File KeyFile.ini contains syntax highlighting information and help-ids for each highlighted keyword. Help-ids are utilized by Context Sensitive help function of LogMeTT and TTLEditor that is called after pressing <Ctrl-F1>.
File SynComp.pro contains all notations for each Macro commands. In LogMeTT or TTLEditor macro editor user can press <Ctrl-Space> and get access to the list of possible completions for current macro command.
Tera Term project team does not maintain syntax highlighter files and each release of Tera Term that contains new Macro commands comes with out of dated KeyFile.ini and SynComp.pro files. As the result, newly added commands are neither highlighted, nor shown in syntax completion proposal lists. When this happens user can check Download section of our web site for the latest versions of the files.
KeyFile.ini and SynComp.pro are distributed as the part of highlighter-abc.zip file, where abc represents Tera Term version number supported by the files.
Tera Term Macro Language file for Generic Syntax Highlighter (GeSHi)
GeSHi started as an idea to create a generic syntax highlighter for the phpBB forum system, but later was generalized into the separate project. GeSHi aims to be a simple but powerful highlighting class, with the following goals:
GeSHi is written on PHP and already supports huge number of different programming languages. We developed ttl.php file to add Tera Term Macro language highlighting to GeSHi. We also integrated GeSHi with Tera Term support forums and now any part of the post containing macro script, when surrounded with [code=ttl] and [/code] tags, appears highlighted. This change is not retroactive, which means earlier posts, unless re-submitted, will remain colorless.
We'll maintain ttl.php file to keep it up to date. In addition, we will update GeSHi project team with the latest versions of ttl.php file that became part of GeSHi installation package. The latest ttl.php file is available from our Download section.

Liberte was my first NARS blush purchase and I am so glad I have it. It is such a beautiful fall color to wear on my NC25-35 skin. It's extremely pigmented so I use a duo fiber brush to apply it. I don't have any problem blending it and it stays on all day. I think the subtle sheen helps a lot to help the color look full of life and not flat.

NARS Liberte Blush ($28.00 for 0.16 oz.) is described as a "burnished apricot." It's a burnt orange-red with a very subtle sheen. Fans of NARS Exhibit A will probably enjoy this–it's just a bit darker, more muted compared to Exhibit A. It's not as bright; it reads softer, and the subtle sheen gives it a more luminous look on the cheeks. MAC My Paradise has a similar feel, though it is a touch lighter.

The Italian white truffle, in England?
The beginning of October saw an exciting e-mail arrive at Mycorrhizal Systems HQ. We received a claim that the most expensive white truffle species, Tuber magnatum, had been found by a gardener in Southern England. Descriptions in the e-mail of the truffle and how/where it was found seemed to substantiate the claim. However, after a request for a sample for DNA testing the 'truffle finder' disappeared. Did he really find white truffles and disappear to sell his hoard? Or did the alleged find turn out to be something else and the embarrassment prevent further contact? Finding T.magnatum in the UK would be very exciting indeed. This species has never been found in England before, but if it were it could command prices of EUR3,000-5,000/Kg.
So let's look at the facts, could T.magnatum feasibly grow in the English climate?
The white truffle can mainly be found in Italy, Croatia and also in one small area of Switzerland, where average winter temperatures for the coldest month range from two to five degrees Celsius, which overlaps very nicely with several areas in England. However, the mean daily temperature in the warmest month is a good four to six degrees warmer than even southern England and the sunshine hours are significantly longer.
So could the white truffle be found in England? On the back of the climate data, it looks doubtful. However, maybe, just maybe, there could be a few small microclimates where it could be feasible. We don't believe T.magnatum is going to be found in England anytime soon, but there's always a glimmer of possibility.

|Basics of Design: Knockout and Knock-in Design Using TAL Effectors and CRISPRs
Does your work involve disease models? Do you need to introduce specific genomic changes in the cells of your choice? Do you want to knock out or knock in a gene in your model cells? If the answer to any of these questions is yes, this is a must-see webinar. The last few years have seen dramatic technical leaps in the ability to precisely manipulate the mammalian genome. Development of precision genome editing tools like TAL (transcription activator-like) effector nucleases and CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeat) systems has enabled the specific introduction of targeted DNA double-strand breaks. Cellular machinery primarily repairs these breaks via the nonhomologous end-joining pathway, which can introduce small insertions or deletions at the break site (thereby causing a disruption). Both TAL effectors and CRISPR systems have been used to generate gene disruptions, perform SNP corrections, and direct gene insertions.
Attend this webinar to learn about common strategies for achieving these goals, including designing the editing tool and donor DNAs using our TAL and CRISPR technologies.

NEW Editing tool targeting any DNA sequence
Transcription activator-like (TAL) effector proteins provide custom DNA-binding domains for accurate DNA targeting and precise genome editing. A limitation of traditional TAL methods is that they require a 5' T at the beginning of their binding sequences. Recently, however, a more powerful TAL tool was developed that allows scientists to target any sequence in the genome. GeneArt® PerfectMatch TALs leverage this new technology and can be designed to target any locus in the genome. Data and results show efficient cleavage with both RNA and DNA formats. Join us for this new webinar focused on the latest advancements on TAL technology.

RNAi technology reveals possible targets for treating Parkinson's disease
Gene silencing through RNA interference (RNAi) has revolutionized our ability to interrogate gene function. This webinar showcases a study to highlight considerations for running large-scale RNAi screens, ranging from the basic concepts and experimental setup to computational and experimental approaches used to overcome the prevalence of off-target effects.
An introduction to RNA-guided genome editing with CRISPR
Genome editing technique involves the use of engineered nucleases in conjunction with endogenous repair mechanisms to insert, delete, or replace a specific DNA sequence from a desired location in the genome. Recently, the Type II CRISPR/Cas bacterial adaptive immune system from Streptococcus pyogenes has been engineered and demonstrated to function as an effective gene-editing tool in various eukaryotic genomes, including mammalian. This webinar provides an overview on CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing.
Genome editing of iPSCs from Parkinson's disease patients using TAL technology
In this webinar we examine genetic engineering of iPSCs derived from Parkinson's disease patient samples, which provide model systems to study disease mechanisms in cell types not previously available. Next-generation tools for stem cell engineering, GeneArt® Precision TALs, offer an extremely efficient method for targeting and regulating expression at defined sequences within the genome.
An introduction to precise genome editing with TAL effectors
Transcription activator–like (TAL) effectors are proteins expressed by plant bacterial pathogens to evade host defense mechanisms. Due to the unique and predictable code for each DNA base within the amino acid repeat regions, TAL DNA-binding domains can be custom tailored to bind any DNA sequence of choice. Designer TAL effectors are attractive tools for genome- and cell-engineering applications. This webinar is an introduction to designer TAL effectors and their applications for targeted gene editing.
Synthetic TAL effectors for targeted gene activation in plants
The ability to selectively activate or inhibit gene expression has value in basic plant biology and agriculture. Targeted gene activation can be achieved by specifically expressing a gene of interest in a temporally and/or spatially defined manner in transgenic plants, or by directly activating endogenous gene expression in its original genetic context. Join this webinar where Dr. Neal Stewart, professor and director at the Tennessee Plant Research Center, provides novel insights into the potential applications of synthetic TALEs for targeted gene activation of transgenes in plants.
An introduction to plant genetic engineering
This webinar introduces the newest genome-editing technology for plants, GeneArt® Precision TALs. The scientific presentation also covers other cloning and algae engineering technologies, such as Gateway® and GeneArt® gene synthesis, to support your quest to engineer the next generation of crops.
Check out our plant sciences webinar series, dedicated to providing tools and technologies that will lead to remarkable agricultural discoveries.

Vertigo is a sensation of motion or spinning that is often described as dizziness.
Vertigo is not the same as light-headedness. People with vertigo feel as though they are actually spinning or moving, or that the world is spinning around them.
Peripheral vertigo; Central vertigo
There are two types of vertigo, peripheral and central vertigo.
Peripheral vertigo is due to a problem in the part of the inner ear that controls balance. These areas are called the vestibular labyrinth or semicircular canals. The problem may also involve the vestibular nerve, which connects the inner ear to the brain stem.
Peripheral vertigo may be caused by:
Central vertigo is due to a problem in the brain, usually in the brain stem or the back part of the brain (cerebellum).
Central vertigo may be caused by:
The main symptom is a sensation that you or the room is moving or spinning. The spinning sensation may cause nausea and vomiting.
Other symptoms can include:
If you have vertigo due to problems in the brain (central vertigo), you may have other symptoms, including:
Examination by the doctor may show:
Tests that may be done include:
The cause of any brain disorder causing vertigo should be identified and treated when possible.
To help resolve your symptoms, the health care provider may perform the Epley maneuver on you. This involves placing your head in different positions to help reset the balance organ.
You may be prescribed medicines to treat symptoms of peripheral vertigo, such as nausea and vomiting.
Physical therapy may help improve balance problems.
To prevent worsening of symptoms during an episode of vertigo, try the following:
You may need help walking when symptoms occur. Avoid hazardous activities such as driving, operating heavy machinery, and climbing until 1 week after symptoms have disappeared.
Other treatment depends on the cause of the vertigo. Surgery may be suggested in some cases.
Vertigo can interfere with driving, work, and lifestyle. It can also cause falls, which can lead to many injuries, including hip fractures.
Call for an appointment with your health care provider if you have vertigo that does not go away or interferes with your daily activities. If you have never had vertigo before or if you have vertigo with other symptoms (such as double vision, slurred speech, or incoordination), call 911.
