Team takes new approach in the study of Alzheimer's

Photo By Johnny Hanson/StaffDr. Ronald DePinho, president of the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center announces the 'moonshot' effort, a $3 billion effort to lower the death rate and find cures for eight specific forms of cancer during a press conference at the M.D. Anderson's F. O'Neil Griffin Conference and Education Center Friday, Sept. 21, 2012, in Houston. The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston expects to spend as much as $3 billion on the project over the next 10 years and already has "tens of millions" of dollars in gifts to jump start it now, said DePinho. The Houston cancer center treats 112,000 patients a year and has been building a database of tumor samples and their genetic characteristics, especially of breast and ovarian cancers.

With the help of a $25 million grant, some top researchers in the field are putting their heads together to solve the Alzheimer's problem. And they're determined not to be just another research group.
Last fall, the Robert A. and Renee E. Belfer Family Foundation gave $25 million to fund a new Neurodegeneration Consortium. The group includes scientists at three institutions - two of them local: the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, Baylor College of Medicine and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
The team will take a new approach to studying the disease, said Ronald DePinho, president of M.D. Anderson.
Right now, he said, the field of Alzheimer's research is focused primarily on a single theory about what causes the disease: the "amyloid hypothesis," which focuses on amyloid, a protein that accumulates in organs and leads to the loss of neurons. Because researchers know that amyloid is linked to neurodegenerative diseases, there's been little funding or support for exploring other possible factors.
The new consortium will buck that trend, DePinho said, and approach the problem with an "unbiased view of what might be causing Alzheimer's."
"We do believe the amyloid theory is important," he said. "We just believe if you only go after that, it's not going to be enough."
The team of investigators wasn't organized just to write papers, DePinho said. "We want to convert discovery into things that matter for patients."
That means - they hope - using what they learn to deliver new drugs, better diagnostics and new ideas for improving patients' quality of life.
One of the consortium's first efforts is a drug discovery project focused on protecting neurons, said Ming-Kuei Jang. Jang, one of the consortium's leaders, is associate director of neurobiology at M.D. Anderson's Institute for Applied Cancer Science.
Instead of trying to prevent Alzheimer's, he said, this project focuses on helping neurons withstand the damage it causes. That means patients with Alzheimer's - or with other neurodegenerative diseases, including ALS and Parkinson's - could someday take a drug that would delay the progression of their disease.
"We're not reversing the course of the disease, but we might be able to stop the disease at the time where you start the therapy," Jang said.
It will be years before any such drug is on the market - but it's a fresh approach to treating a disease that's projected to become a crisis.
Funding for neurodegenerative diseases has never been more crucial, DePinho said. In the United States, 5.4 million people are living with Alzheimer's - and that's going to increase in the coming years, he said, because more people are living longer.After the age of 60, the incidence of age-related disease doubles every five years, DePinho said. A person in his 80s has a 45 percent chance of having Alzheimer's. The cost of care and treatment is going to become a crisis, especially as Baby Boomers reach their 70s and 80s. By 2025, the disease is likely to cost the U.S. $1 trillion a year in today's dollars.
"The world is on a collision course that is essentially an unsustainable situation," DePinho said.
To prevent that, he said, scientists need to do all they can to find a cure.
"We need to use the power of genetics, computational science, genetic engineering, all of the things that have led to a boon in cancer research and knowledge," he said, and take the same approach to Alzheimer's - to "hit the reset button and ask what is going on with the disease."

Guns For Some...
Call it what you will, "conversation," "discussion," "debate," "argument," or whatever other word suits you, but the fact is that we have been talking about guns for the last thirty years. We talked about the Brady Bill, the "assault weapons" ban, the numerous court decisions and what we should or could do in the aftermath of every mass shooting that we've had to suffer through.
Through all this talk, we had seemed to have reached sort of a national consensus on guns which is why the issue had largely receded from politics. Most Americans wanted to allow law abiding citizens to have guns while also placing some restrictions on that ownership: limits on types of guns, background checks, waiting periods, etc. It was far from a perfect compromise and there were still problems such things as gun show loopholes, but generally it seemed like we had arrived at a position of stasis in the long running battle between the pro and anti gun zealots.
One side said that the answer was guns for everyone. The other said guns for no one (although they often weren't quite this straightforward when presenting their arguments). It reminds me of the classic Simpson's campaign bit on abortion with Kane and Kodos:
Guns for all.
Very well, no guns for anyone.
Guns for some, miniature American flags for others.
Now, that unstated consensus on guns might be in danger of collapsing or at least changing. For my money, from a purely political perspective the GOP would be smart to sign on to new gun control restrictions proposed by President Obama assuming that they will be largely symbolic and that most Americans would find them to be reasonable limitations. Given the current climate, it would be politically damaging for Republicans to take an all or nothing stand toward gun control and fight any attempt at further restrictions as if it's a matter of taking guns from our cold, dead fingers.
On the other hand, it's interesting to note that many analysts believe that one of President Obama's key second term goals is to weaken the GOP and retake the House in 2014. Given the way the House is currently districted and politically divided, it's hard to imagine that gun control is going to be an issue that Democrats are going to ride to restoring their majority in 2014.
Those two factors demonstrate why both parties have been willing to live with the recent status quo on guns. Neither may have been entirely happy with it, but at least they knew where things stood.

The problem is how to explain Constitutional rights to a nation educated by Liberals who don't believe the Founders meant what they said and even if they did, we should ignore it because (a) they weren't perfect people and (b) we don't like their ideas anymore.ReplyDelete
When 51% of the country owes its existence to the government, allowing you to keep arms to throw off tyranny is an intolerable threat to the continued existence of the gravy train. In that situation, guns gotta go.

Walter in the Parsley
First, a few housekeeping matters:
1. My Food Network show premieres tomorrow.
2. It comes on at 11:30 am, unless you live in the middle of the country. Then it comes on at 10:30 am. If you live on the west coast, though, you're tan and it comes on at 8:30 am.
3. I could have been much more efficient just now by saying 11:30 ET/10:30 ET/8:30 PT. But that sounded too TV Guide-ish and I have to be me.
4. I've been in New York for the past 48 hours. I'm going to be on Good Morning America this morning. I'll be wearing boots that you likely won't see because they'll be hidden by the table. I'll blog about them next week. They're western and freaky.
5. I'm flying home right after Good Morning America and meeting Marlboro Man and the kids at the Range Roundup, our state's annual ranch rodeo.
6. Marlboro Man will milk a wild cow.
7. My youngest son will ride a donkey.
8. I think I'll drink a very large Diet Coke and eat one of those hot dogs with synthetic orange cheese squirted on it. And that's as far as I've gotten with my plans.
For those of you who aren't able to watch the show tomorrow (and even for those of you who are) here are some behind-the-scenes photos from some of the various episodes coming up over the next few weeks:
This was a scene we filmed for Episode 1. I was watering my garden and picked some parsley to take up to the Lodge and use to make a tomato salad. Every time I squatted down in the parsley, Walter would take that as his cue to lumber over and get all up in my business. Even if one of the kids held him back, even if he was lying down and relaxing, the second I squatted, he darted over for some love.
Oh, Walter, Walter, Walter.
This is my daughter baking a cake and me making dinner for my baby's birthday. I have a double chin and I don't care.
This is me and the father of my children, who had just challenged me to a roping contest. I couldn't back away from a husband challenge (what's with this husband-wife competitiveness? It gets more severe with each passing year) so I grabbed the rope and went for it. You'll see in Episode 6 how it turned out, and you'll also see why Josh and Tim are watching so intently in the background. There was a lot at stake on this one.
This is me, trying to convince the father of my children to broaden his horizons by trying something I'd just cooked, something he'd never tried before. I look a little too fervent. And I look like I'm about to grab his bottom or something.
Come to think of it, maybe I was.
I showed you this the other day, but I'm showing you again. This was an authentic moment between my husband and me in that he throws me over his shoulder at inappropriate moments quite often. But here's a little inside information: I was wearing…well…let's just say I was wearing a body-shaping camisole underneath the pink gauzy shirt.
The reason I was wearing the camisole is that I had to wear one of those bulky mic packs, and wearing a body-shaping camisole was the only way to keep the bulky mic pack securely in place. So when the production company sent me this portion of the first episode a couple of weeks ago (they just wanted me to get a sneak peek) it was not pretty. Here's what happened:
1. Marlboro Man threw me on his shoulder.
2. He spun me around.
3. As he spun me around, the wind blew up my top.
4. When the wind blew up my top, there was my nude, very shiny body shaping camisole for all the world to see. And it wasn't a pretty kind of shiny. It was a bulgy, misshapen kind of shiny. It glowed.
5. Then he set me down with my back square to the camera and my bottom at one point took up the whole frame.
6. Remember that scene in Bridget Jones when she slid down the pole? Exactly.
That's when I emailed the production company and said, "You know what? I changed my mind. I don't think I want to do this show after all. Thanks for everything, though! I wish you the best in all you do."
I still haven't heard back from them.
So basically, we'll see how much of the shiny camisole bottom stuff shows up.
That's just a peek. When I'm back at home sweet home Sunday afternoon, after the New York trip is done and the rodeo is over and we get to settle into life again, I'll post more details about the filming of the show.
But I do want to say something. It's important for me to say it. I hope you'll read every word.
Thank you so much for being so kind, for showing me such support this week in the days leading up to the show. During a time when I could have been frenzied and nervous, your support has buoyed and sustained me. Just knowing so many of you are going to virtually be holding my hand as my family and I appear on…a…TV show…tomorrow…has really helped me just enjoy this week for what it is–a fun adventure I'm so glad I decided to try.
I appreciate you all so very much.
Love forever,

I can hardly wait for tomorrow morning. I'm so excited. I've set the DVR just in case I get called away. I just know it will be a big hit and you didn't even have to go through any "Food Network Star" craziness to get your show. Good luch on GMA and good luck to your family at the rodeo. RIDE 'EM COWBOYS!!!!!
Phyllis On Friday, August 26 at 9:41 am
I have so enjoyed your website and your recipes. Your life on the ranch with your family is one of the biggest draws to your site, it seems like I know them and can't wait to see how they are growing and changing. My daughter has taught my granddaughter to say "keep it real". That is the only advice I have for you and I believe that you are doing that, good luck on the show.

I won't get your show, but my parents will, so I'll be visiting them for your premier! I am so excited and happy for you. We share the same philosophy I think, not to mention hair color: Life is an adventure.
Enjoy yours!
Teri On Friday, August 26 at 9:47 am
My Mom is taking our kids so my hubby and I can have an adult weekend. They are pretty rare for us, so we are excited. Thank goodness for DVR though or I would have had to cancel with my husband because I've had a date with your new show planned for weeks now!
Susan On Friday, August 26 at 9:47 am
I chuckled, I laughed, and the I got a big ol' lump in my throat. Of course we are all cheering for you- you are one of us.
CateS On Friday, August 26 at 9:47 am
caught your appearance on GMA… Looks like some of those guys didn't get any breakfast…. the long shots of you chatting with Robin show EVERYONE ELSE chowing down on the cobbler !!! That and the blazing chicken in the background!! Be sure to watch the episode online !!
Vickie On Friday, August 26 at 9:47 am
I've got my DVR all set up! Looking forward to see you on television.
Sandy in South Dakota On Friday, August 26 at 9:47 am
Ree, I watched the 6 minute preview and you appear so confident and organized and it's like you were meant to be on television. I wish you all the best and am so glad I found your blog a long time ago. And, I have read your book. What a wonderful book.
Blessings from the plains of South Dakota, Sandy
Lorri On Friday, August 26 at 9:48 am
I set my DVR almost 2 weeks ago to make sure I didn't miss your show, but I'll probably watch as it's being broadcast. Love you and your blog, Ree.
Ashley Kosher On Friday, August 26 at 9:49 am
I'm looking forward to Saturday morning! My boyfriend is also excited…I told him " remember that blog that i read…then remember that cookbook that i bought…and then remember that novel that i read by the same person…well now she has a FOOD NETWORK SHOW!" hehe!
Julie in Michigan On Friday, August 26 at 9:49 am
Hi Ree! Can't wait to watch! My house cleaning can wait until after your show!!
hello haha narf On Friday, August 26 at 9:50 am
thrilled for you. enjoy the ride!
Betsy Deak On Friday, August 26 at 9:50 am
I admire your courage, Ree. In this time of cruel and unfair critiques of everything and everyone, I would not be as brave. Remember how much you are admired and loved (this person included) and how difficult it is for many people to see someone happy and productive. Envy really eats people from the inside out. Ignore and enjoy.
Some of my family's favorite new meals have come from your passion. Thank you!
Jennifer On Friday, August 26 at 9:50 am
It is going to be great! Can't wait!
nicholle On Friday, August 26 at 9:51 am
very much excited for you about the show!
Lorrie On Friday, August 26 at 9:51 am
And we appreciate you Ree. Can't wait for the show ( providing Irene doesn't knock out our power).
Oh, you need to tell us where you get your tops you're wearing on the show. I especially love the first 2.

Ready and DVR'd too!
Alice On Friday, August 26 at 9:54 am
I just wanted to let you know that in the only cooking show I've ever enjoyed, Sam the Cooking Guy, part of what made the show endearing was his dog randomly wandering into/through the scene. Also his candidness. I don't think you'll have a problem with either of those.
Too bad I don't have TV.
Kellye On Friday, August 26 at 9:54 am
You're welcome.
And I'll be making your Dump Cake tomorrow to commemorate the occasion and also because we're getting a hurricane, so why not.

Molly On Friday, August 26 at 9:56 am
I am so excited for your show tomorrow! I am looking forward to seeing some hounds on TV… maybe I will even pause it and make my own two bassets come see. (Who am I kidding–chances are they'll both be on the couch with me while it's on, anyway.)
Amanda On Friday, August 26 at 9:56 am

Westtown Gal On Friday, August 26 at 10:07 am
I started reading your blog about a month ago, a completely random thing as I just Googled "Popular cooking blogs" and there you were. I'm obsessed now. I know, a little creepy. But reading about where you thought you were going and where you ended up is very similar to my story. How you love your husband and what's he's brought to your life and created a family that you couldn't do without…me too! So thank you for the confessions and the recipes and the honesty, it's really been an unexpected gift this last month. The show will be great, because honesty, humor and food mixed together are the best combination. Wishing your and yours many years of it to come!
Cheryl Stoneham On Friday, August 26 at 10:08 am
Be proud of those SPANX, Ree! Can't wait to see your new show…after meeting you at the Grove (in fact I was with the group of ladies and we all had a Spanx conversation), you are such a hoot and I'm sure your new show will ROCK!!!
This "tan" (not!) California girl will be watching at 8:30 AM on Saturday!
Angela On Friday, August 26 at 10:09 am
Oh, I wish I had known you were going to be on Good Morning America- I would of recorded it! I will have to look on you tube- maybe someone posted it! I have already set my DVR for tomorrow's show! can't wait!

Vicky On Friday, August 26 at 10:10 am
Ree, I can't wait for the show tomorrow. However, here in Los Angeles Pioneer Woman is on at 11:30am….not 8:30 like you listed. Don't want anyone to miss your debut! Good Luck!

"What are you doing this weekend?"
Since I live in Maryland (fairly close to the Chesapeake Bay) we're getting our cars filled up with gas, propane tanks filled and ready, and generator set to be plugged in. Of course, since this crazy storm is being nice and giving us at least Friday to have fun a family bonfire and cookout is on for tonight!
All you North-Easterner's don't take this storm lightly! It's likely it will be gaining strength as it moves north so we're all in for a wild weekend.
Thank you for the pie crust info, I have always thought using lard is the best choice but for healthy reasons have used butter. Now I know I've been using the best option all along! (of course those times when I'm in a rush and a store bought will have to do we will just forget about! haha)

Ree, I feel so strange call someone I've never met by their first name but anyway. We are all rooting for you. Nice people should get to finish first and more important than the great cooking or photography or witty writing skills, more important than the movie/tv knowledge, the common sense or down right funny stuff you say I'm betting you are a genuinely NICE person. And in today's world NICE should count. Thanks for sharing and encouraging that in all of us. That is your real gift.
Cheryl Averso On Friday, August 26 at 10:28 am
Hi All! I cannot wait to see the show. I have a planned break from packing up my house in order to watch it but in the event things get too crazed I have the DVR pre-programmed to record it just in case!! I'm sure it will be an awesome show and I cannot wait to see it!! Thanks for letting us have a peak into your world!! Love, Cheryl A.

Eaton receives $15k from county
While the former Valencia County fire chief couldn't disclose the monetary amount he received for the settlement of his Equal Employment Opportunity Commission complaint, the check is still considered a public record under the state's Inspection of Public Records Act.
According to county records, former Chief Charles Eaton was awarded $15,000 as part of his recent EEOC settlement.
His resignation was also part of the deal, which he tendered effective on Aug. 2.
Eaton filed the complaint in December, alleging discrimination based on age and disability.
He had been fire chief since 2000, and with the Valencia County fire service for a total of 13 years.

Entry 5
Entry 5
Prospect Point - Wednesday April 7th
There are two events to report today, well three really, but the third is more an in-house disciplinary matter for Rockhopper and I'll leave it to last.
The first is that today has been one of those incredible Antarctic days when the sun shines, the sky is blue, the light catches the bergs and the sea and the glaciers, and when there is no other place on Earth worth being in. It is for days like today that we come back. A day that shapes our memories. I am unashamedly thrilled by it. It is a yabadabadoooooooooooooooo day.
The second is the we have arrived at Prospect Point and glided in through the newly forming sea ice to find the hut in a sorry state but in the most wonderful location. It may be that the towering ice walls and shifting, murmuring glaciers made the place next to useless for exploration and science work. It may be that it was abandonded in 1959 after just 3 years. But I'll tell you what, give me a rocking chair, set me on the porch at Prospect Point with a supply of G&T and a run of days like today, and it has to be one of the most marvelous places on our planet to just sit. And that's all. To sit and marvel. And sip.
Which brings me to Rockhopper. Rufty-tufty cameraman Luke and Senior (more of which shortly) Producer Saritha were, as ever, the embodiment of professionalism and dedication to their craft. That is, until the team photo for the web site when a day-long growing unease I have felt finally gave me grounds to change their job titles. Drawing on a precedent set in the BBC New York Bureau I will in future be referring to them as The Children. In NY, Brian (the much-grander-than-me Brian Barron) used to say "That's not for me - give it to one of the children" whenever he was asked to do almost anything. Brian is older than me and his staff were mostly aged about 19 or 20, clearly much older than Luke and Saritha, so the precedent is valid.
Isn't there some rule about taking children to Antarctica? Not
taking them, perhaps? Memory fails. Pass the G&T.

View Cruises that visit this port
Below is a list of those shore excursions previously offered in this port. For information on which shore excursions will be offered on a particular cruise, please reference the specific itinerary of that cruise.
This full-day tour allows you to discover the wonderful natural attraction of Geirangerfjord and the incredible scenery to be found in this area of Norway.
The Geirangerfjord is no doubt one of the most beautiful fjords in Norway. Towering, steep mountainsides and numerous waterfalls all combine to create the unique scenery that would be hard to find anywhere else in the world.
At the head of this 9-mile long fjord lays the little village of Geiranger where your excursion commences. You will begin by heading up the many hairpin bends to the viewpoint named Eagle's Bend. From this wonderful vantage point there is a fantastic view of the mountain world that surrounds you as well as the fjord deep down below. Thereafter, your coach descends to fjord level once more and returns to Geiranger before starting uphill again, passing two of the town's modern, comfortable hotels as well as the little wooden octagonal church.
Your next stop will be at Flydal gorge. The view down towards the fjord is simply superb and the cruise ships look like toy boats from this height. Continuing on, you'll make your way towards Djupvass chalet situated at some 3100 feet above sea level and then make a detour up to the summit of Mount Dalsnibba, from where there is an unbelievable view on clear days. Retracing your path to Djupvass, your drive continues further along Djupvatn Lake, which is usually covered by ice and snow until end of June. Linking up with the new Stryne-Road, kept open year-round, you will follow that to Grotli where a stop is made for lunch.
After a relaxing lunch and a chance to stretch your legs, your tour resumes in a westerly direction to the Tystigen summer ski-center for your next stop. With a bit of luck and snow conditions permitting, you may be able to see skiers as they come zooming down the mountainside. Continue down the hairpin bends of the Stryn-Road to Stryn Lake, known for its wonderful turquoise color. Another photo stop is made before making your way into Stryn, the administrative center of the inner part of the Nordfjord, driving along the Stryn Salmon River the last part of the way. Following the shores of the Nordfjord, you will next cross a wooded hill down to Hornindal Lake, the deepest freshwater lake in Europe which is known for its abundance of fish.
The last leg of your journey navigates uphill, crossing the border between the County Sogn & Fjordane and Møre & Romsdal county. Enjoy the scenery of a mountain valley with many attractive chalets as you make your way down to the village of Hellesylt, situated at the head of the Synnulvsfjord. It was here that the author Henrik Ibsen was inspired to write one of his best-known plays. As your tour comes to an end, you'll pass a lovely waterfall and the local dairy, where they produce the Norwegian type of goat cheese. Arriving at the pier, you will find your ship has also made the journey to Hellesylt and lies at anchor awaiting your return.
Please note: This tour is considered panoramic and encompasses approximately 5 hours of travel on a coach. The tour is available to wheelchair guests who have a collapsible wheelchair, can make their own way on and off the coach and have an able-bodied companion to assist them. Those with mobility concerns are cautioned to carefully evaluate their personal level of stamina and ability. Casual, weather appropriate clothing which should include a sweater or jacket, and flat, comfortable shoes are suggested. The order of sites visited may vary.

Cinema - William Cook goes in search of Woody Allen's New York and discovers a European fantasy
Cinema - William Cook goes in search of Woody Allen's New York and discovers a European fantasy
by William Cook Published
If George W Bush wants to repair America's reputation with Britain, he should stay home and send Woody Allen over here instead. No American has done more than Allen to make us love America, and he's done it by creating a Eurocentric version of our favourite American city. He is perhaps the only film-maker to unite populist Stateside humour with the European high art of Bergman or Fellini. No wonder his official biographer, Eric Lax, called his influences "an amalgam of old Europe and New York".
Old Europe has returned the compliment. Allen is lionised on this side of the pond, both in Britain and on the Continent (especially in France, where his 1990 movie, Alice, grossed more than it did in America). No doubt about it, Europe adores Woody Allen. But before we decide that Americans are our kindred spirits after all, it's worth remembering that the landscape of his films is really an immaculate illusion.
Woody Allen's New York is the bohemian neverland where every British liberal dreams of living - a nirvana for free-loving artists and intellectuals, with an arthouse cinema or independent bookstore on every block. "I constantly run into Europeans whose only sense of New York comes from Manhattan and Annie Hall," revealed Allen in the 1980s. "If that's what they're expecting to find, I guess they're disappointed." Like every fictitious locale, from Hardy's Wessex to Raymond Chandler's Los Angeles, Allen's New York is a fantasy - the meticulous stage set of a modern myth.
Visitors to New York usually confine their travels to Manhattan. But Allen's characters inhabit an even smaller space - more like a medieval city state than a contemporary metropolis and possible to cross on foot. North of SoHo, south of Harlem, its western border is Broadway and its centre is the exclusive Upper East Side, what Allen once called the elegant, Cole Porter part of New York. "I couldn't live on the West Side," he told the journalist Alfred Bester. "I have to be on the East Side, in the mid-70s, just about ten blocks away from the mainstream." Ten blocks from the mainstream - it's not a bad metaphor for his work.
For his British fans, Allen's fondness for the Upper East Side can be a rude awakening, a bit like discovering that Mike Leigh lives in Mayfair, or Ken Loach hangs out in Belgravia. It also shows we're inclined to sentimentalise Allen's neurotic canon. For all their right-on attitudes, his characters are only rebels when compared with the Wall Street brokers who surround them, and Allen's perspective is that of a Jewish intruder in an affluent Wasp ghetto. The sumptuous Cafe Carlyle, where he plays the clarinet every Monday night with his long-standing trad jazz band, the New Orleans Funeral and Ragtime Orchestra, is pure Bonfire of the Vanities. The Carlyle Hotel on Madison Avenue inevitably crops up as a location in Manhattan - like Bond Street crossed with the Champs Elysees, only posher.
There was nothing privileged about Allen's roots. Born in the Bronx and raised in Brooklyn, he didn't even visit Manhattan until he was six - but from then on, he yearned to live there. As a teenager, he devoured movies, variety and burlesque in the streets around Times Square, where today one "gentleman's club" has the wonderfully (if unwittingly) Allenesque moniker, Mixed Emotions.
Here on Broadway, his real and imagined worlds overlap. The Morosco theatre, where he premiered his early play, Don't Drink the Water, resurfaced in Radio Days and Bullets Over Broadway. The Carnegie Deli on Seventh Avenue, where Allen often ate, and set his vaudeville elegy, Broadway Danny Rose, still retains a flavour of that lost world. The historic Radio City Music Hall, where Play It Again Sam first ran, appears in the panoramic overture of Manhattan. Yet unlike his English peers, Allen doesn't wallow in slushy nostalgia for the theatre. Tellingly, the stage he's described with greatest passion is Madison Square Garden - home of his beloved basketball team, the New York Knicks. As he wrote in the New Yorker: "This is everything the theatre should be and isn't."
In the Dakota Building, on the Upper West Side, art and autobiography collide again. This ornate gothic pile, once inhabited by the horror icon Boris Karloff, is where Allen shot Hannah and Her Sisters, in the apartment of his sometime partner Mia Farrow. This is also where Farrow filmed Rosemary's Baby (and John Lennon lived and died here). Allen's home on the other side of the park is on smarter, straighter Fifth Avenue. Aptly for a man who seems most comfortable in the hinterland of fiction, Allen's films provide far better photo opportunities than his life. As another of Allen's biographers, John Baxter, observes, sophisticated New York landmarks like the Museum of Modern Art (or the Lincoln Center) are important supporting players in Allen's casts. Even the shops in his films tend to be resolutely upmarket - Bloomingdale's (not Macy's) and FAO Schwarz (New York's equivalent of Hamleys), both on the East Side.
On Second Avenue is Elaine's, the chic yet homely restaurant where Allen met Mia Farrow, and set the opening scene of his hometown homage, Manhattan. The atmosphere is intimate and cosy, but the clientele is well heeled (with an impressive cast of famous guests, such as Michael Caine). There's a cheaper souvenir on Sutton Place, where Allen and Diane Keaton watched the sun rise over the Queensboro Bridge - a seminal image that doubled as the billboard poster for Manhattan. "I love this city," confides Allen, as they drink in this moment together.
Sutton Square is charming - a tidy terrace of handsome townhouses, ending in a tiny but lovingly cultivated garden. However, seeing the view for real - the lonely highrise blocks over the East River, the endless stream of commuter traffic pouring across the monolithic bridge above, and the cold dark water below - what's most striking is how Allen has turned this gigantic, grimy netherworld into somewhere so Parisian. From 1992, Allen's films premiered in Paris. He and Soon-Yi spent their honeymoon there. Everyone Says I Love You, his biggest hit since Hannah and Her Sisters, was mainly filmed there, too.
"New York was his town," says Allen's voice-over, in Manhattan. "And it always would be." But what makes Allen's films so appealing to European palates is that the Manhattan of his movies is nothing like New York. In a year when certain "patriotic" Americans have taken to calling French fries "Freedom Fries", it is a delicious irony that Europe's favourite American film-maker is a native New Yorker who somehow transformed his hometown into an arrondissement on the Rive Gauche.

Nokia E52: stellar battery life
Nokia have announced the E52, a S60 handset they're calling "voice optimized". Boasting eight hours of talktime from a full charge, the Nokia E52 also has noise cancellation together with the email UI from the Nokia E75. Of course, while the focus might be voice calls, Nokia couldn't help throwing in other modern-day niceties such as GPS and a 3.2-megapixel camera.
There's also a 2.4-inch QVGA display and access to the Nokia Ovi services, plus HSDPA and HSUPA for high-speed mobile data access. It'll be available in silver and a rather sludgy brown.

Public Beach Monitoring
|The Environmental Health Division of the Grand Traverse County Health Department works closely with the Watershed Center Grand Traverse Bay, the City of Traverse City, and the Traverse City State Park to insure the health and safety of five public beaches on East and West Grand Traverse Bay. The Watershed Center administers grants from the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality to sample surface water from swim areas of the beaches. The water samples are analyzed for E. coli , a relatively harmless organism that may indicate the possible presence of harmful pathogenic microorganisms.
The GTCHD interprets sample results and posts the "Weekly Beach Report", including the "Water Quality Index", which is a numerical system of alerting the public regarding contact with surface water. For example, Level 1 is safe for full body contact, Level 2 is safe for contact below the waste, Level 3 means no body contact, and Level 4 is a health alert with no body contact due to gross contamination.
In addition, the GTCHD has organized a coalition of agencies known as the "Beach Monitoring Stakeholders Group" that regularly meets to discuss surface water quality issues as they relate to healthy beaches.

Norfolk, Va. – Lela Burden received her degree today. The centenarian lightly clapped just before she was handed her diploma.
NewsChannel 3 first introduced to you her in May, when Doumar's celebrated her 111th birthday with ice cream.
"I'm not old yet, I'm still a young lady," Burden said back in May.
Burden is delightfully sharp. She remembers nearly everything about her time in school.
Schools were temporarily shut down in 1918 for a flu pandemic, by that time the teenage Burden was working two jobs and never went back to finish her education.
Decades of rich life experience taught her more than most learn in two lifetimes.
"Not any different," she said on how she feels about being one of the world's oldest women. "Still have your aches and pains but thank God I'm still alive."
Norfolk woman turns 111 years old, one of the oldest living in the world

Nice light shoe.Great for approach,scrambling,and
some long easy climbs. Not design to take abuse, like long crack climbs. Heel has an air pocket, which sometimes bugs me, but that might be because they designed the heel to fold in and use as a slipper.Love the shoe, pretty comfortable.

Call for Action team helps get a potentially dangerous tree removed from near a woman's house
Born and raised in Hamburg, Germany, Gertrude Opperman pieces together an old fashioned turkey and cheese sandwich.
Gertrude believes in old fashioned values as well.
As the owner of Gertrude's Custom Draperies, one of Gertrude's guiding principles was to treat her customers exactly the way she likes to be treated.
But a year and a half ago Gertrude says she became involved in a dispute with the St. Clair Shores Department Of Public Works over a city owned tree that Gertrude claimed was breaking up the concrete near her house and pushing up against the side of her house.
In November 2010, Gertrude sent in an application to have the city remove that tree, but her request was denied because, the city said, the tree was perfectly health and not deemed to be dangerous.
The city of St. Clair Shores has a total of 3 men responsible for caring for more than 25,000 trees. The city's official policy is to leave "healthy trees" like Gertrude's alone.
Still this past July 2nd Gertrude called the city's Department Of Public Works and asked them again to cut that tree down.
When her request was denied again, that's when Gertrude called the Call for Action team and just 7-days later city and DPW crews had chopped that tree down.
Several days later the city started grinding up the tree stump as well.
"Thank you again, and thank you again. Because you helped me get that tree cut down. Channel 7 and Call for Action - you are doing something for the people," Gertrude says.
If you need help with a problem you can't solve, you can call The Call For Action Team at 248-827-3362.

Erin Naylor '08 works part time for the Minnesota Reading Corps, a group of AmeriCorps members providing one-on-one literacy tutoring to children age 3 through third grade who are below proficiency in reading but do not qualify for other federal services like Title I or special education.
Naylor, who was a social work major at UW-Eau Claire, spent three winter breaks teaching Spanish literacy skills in a Guatemalan village and now works individually with a group of third-graders at an elementary school in Rochester.
"I take each one for about 15 minutes to do specific reading interventions that are aimed at helping them increase their fluency," said Naylor, who also is taking a full load of graduate courses in social work at the University of Minnesota. "I talk a lot with my students about the importance of education and try to read interesting stories with them to encourage the fun of reading."
According to the MRC, this year 367 members are helping more than 9,000 children in 161 Minnesota schools. Members receive a stipend and money to pay for college or student loans, and full time members receive health insurance. Next year the MRC hopes to recruit 400 more members and help 15,000 children.

Louisville honored its senior players and manager with a pregame ceremony on Saturday at Jim Patterson Stadium.
CardsTV Postgame Interviews: Head Coach Dan ~nbsp>McDonnell | OF Cole ~nbsp>Sturgeon
LOUISVILLE, Ky. - Sophomore righty Anthony Kidston completed a dominant weekend on the mound for the fifth-ranked Louisville baseball team pitching seven shutout innings in a 10-0 victory over Cincinnati on Saturday at Jim Patterson Stadium in the final game of the regular season.
Kidston (Defiance, Ohio) allowed only two hits while striking out six in a complete game victory halted after seven innings due to the league's run rule for the final game of a series. The Cardinals (43-13, 19-5 American) ended Saturday's game against the Bearcats (22-30, 6-18 American) in walk-off fashion plating four runs in the seventh inning to finish a strong afternoon at the plate for the home team.
Louisville will enter next week's American Athletic Conference Championship as the No. 1 seed after clinching the outright regular season title on Friday. The championship is set to begin on Wednesday at Bright House Field in Clearwater, Fla. The complete five-day championship schedule will be released later this evening by the conference.
On the mound on Saturday, Kidston improved to 6-0 on the season and 11-0 in his collegiate career with win while equaling his longest out of the season. It was the first complete game for a Louisville pitcher since Kyle Funkhouser's nine-inning complete game win at Eastern Kentucky on May 7, 2013. Saturday's game completed a series in which Louisville allowed just two runs and had 27 strikeouts in 25.0 innings pitched.
Finishing with a 14-2 advantage in hits on Saturday, Louisville was led by senior outfielder Cole Sturgeon (Owensboro, Ky.), who was 2-for-4 with three runs scored and one RBI, while freshman Nick Solak (Woodridge, Ill.) was 2-for-3 with a double and a run driven in. Junior second baseman Zach Lucas (Louisville, Ky.) was 2-for-2 with two RBI and a run scored, and senior catcher Shane Crain (Lexington, Ky.) delivered the two-out, three-run double in the seventh to end the game.
Louisville struck early on Saturday when senior outfielder Jeff Gardner (Louisville, Ky.) delivered a RBI sacrifice fly to right to score Sturgeon for the 1-0 lead in the first inning. Sturgeon led off with a single to right before moving to third on a single to left center by Solak.
An inning later, the Cardinals had the first of their two four-run innings in the game connecting for five hits in the frame, including four against Cincinnati starter Andrew Zellner. Junior shortstop Sutton Whiting (New Wilmington, Pa.) started the scoring with a RBI single through the right side to plate freshman Corey Ray (Chicago, Ill.). Later in the inning, Sturgeon delivered a RBI single to left to send sophomore first baseman Danny Rosenbaum home for the 3-0 lead. An RBI sac fly by senior catcher Kyle Gibson (Henderson, Ky.) scored Whiting for the third run of the inning, before Solak doubled off the right field wall to plate Sturgeon.
Louisville added its sixth run of the game in the fifth inning on a RBI sac fly to left by Lucas to score senior third baseman Alex Chittenden (Indianapolis, Ind.). Then, in the seventh, the Cardinals closed the game as Lucas delivered a RBI single to left to score junior outfielder Mike White (East Orange, N.J.) before Crain sent a 1-0 offering from Austin Woodby down the left field line to score junior Grant Kay (Omaha, Neb.), Lucas and Sturgeon.
Zellner suffered the loss for the Bearcats and dropped to 4-4 on the season after allowing five runs, all earned, on six hits in just 1.2 innings. Reliever Mitch Patishall was charged with one run allowed on five hits in 3.1 innings before Woodby gave up four runs on three hits in 1.2 innings.

I don't know whether he can keep this up for 20 years, and I'm not saying he will be better than Mays. No way anybody can be better than Mays. But I will say this kid has a chance to be as good.

While these are lovely arrows I can not accurately date them so please consider them superb display items but not antiques. That being said, they are terrifically made. The shafts are perfectly straight. The feathers and points are both wrapped on with what looks like real sinew. The points are finely knapped and terrific examples. One has a tiny flake off of the tip which is only noticable on very close inspection (See last photo). This is really a neat pair.

Small size Native American rug. I believe this is Navajo but I am not an expert (Oppinions are most welcome). 14x30 inch (not including fringe) makes it a lovely size for a backdrop in a display. Very pleasing color scheme and good condition. One small area of staining (see photos). This may clean out but I won't try. No damage that I can find. Someone will be happy with this one.

As I alluded to yesterday, there is another bit of anti-ecig junk science out today. Once again, it is from the Glantz shop at UCSF. Glantz did not put his name on this paper (presumably to create the illusion among the naive that this is not all part of a single organized disinformation campaign), but that hardly matters.
The little study (published as a "research letter") followed a small group of smokers for one year, and compared quit rates for those who had recently tried an e-cigarette at the baseline survey and those who had not. They found that those in the former group had a slightly lower abstinence from smoking at followup. Clive Bates does a good job of pointing out how this thin result led to overblown conclusions, and then UCSF created a misleading press release, and this tricked the press into reporting out-and-out falsehoods. Do read Clive's post for more — there is no reason for me to repeat it here. (If the NYT picks up the story, I might respond to that, but I am not inclined to spend any effort responding to random stories from unsophisticated news sources.) Continue reading

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – The University of New Hampshire is currently leading the America East 2012-13 Stuart P. Haskell, Jr. Commissioner's Cup standings by two points after the completion of the fall athletic season. The Commissioner's Cup annually recognizes the strongest athletic program in America East as determined by a scoring system that rewards a school for success both during the regular season and at championship competition in the conference's 20 sports.
With the conclusion of the six fall championships, the Wildcats currently hold the top spot with 120 points, holding a slight lead over Albany who has 118 points. Stony Brook came in third after posting 105 points, while Vermont (84) edged UMBC (83) in the totals. Boston University holds the fifth spot with 76 points while Maine (64), Binghamton (63) and Hartford (60) round out the standings.
New Hampshire excelled in its fall sports after all six teams qualified for the America East tournaments in their respective sports. Field hockey claimed the regular-season title after playing to a 5-0 record in conference play and finished as runners-up in the tournament. The men's soccer squad and men's and women's cross country teams also finished in second place through post-season competition.
Albany claimed the America East Championship in field hockey and finished as runners-up in volleyball after taking the regular-season title.
Stony Brook took conference post-season titles in women's soccer as well as men's and women's cross country to earn its 105. Vermont claimed the regular-season title in men's soccer while UMBC took the conference championship in the same sport.
Boston U. took the regular-season crown in women's soccer after playing an undefeated conference season. Maine took 35 points in women's soccer after entering the tournament as the second seed. Binghamton notched the majority of its points with the conference title in volleyball while Hartford finished as runners-up in women's soccer.
The Stuart P. Haskell, Jr. Commissioner's Cup is named in honor of the first commissioner of America East. Haskell served as commissioner of the conference from 1987 until his retirement in 1997.
The scoring system for the Stuart P. Haskell, Jr. Commissioner's Cup is as follows: In sports where regular-season round robin competition is conducted, the first-place institution in the final standings receives four points times the total number of teams involved in conference play. The second-place institution receives four less points; third place receives eight less points, and so on. Additionally, the America East (tournament) champion receives two points times the total number of teams participating in the championship. The second-place institution receives two less points; third place receives four less points and so on down to the last-place institution that receives two points.
In sports where regular-season round robin competition is not conducted (cross country, tennis, track and field, swimming and diving), the first-place institution at the America East championship receives two points times the total number of teams participating in the championship. The second-place institution receives two less points; third place gets four less points and so on down to the last place team that receives two points.
