* garlic salt
* chilli powder
* onion powder
* ground black pepper
* jalapenos ( I use dried, also crushed chilli flakes but you can use sliced jalapenos in can with juice)
* 2 limes
* 1 orange
* 1 onion
* boneless chicken breast
****** I am aware that I did not say tablespoon or teaspoon. it's because everyone is different some like more spice some want more acid (limes), salt, etc....
Step 1: Chicken season Time
season the chicken on both sides with the first 5 items to your liking but if you are using canned jalapenos then wait for next step.
Step 2: Store The Juice
prep time first. cut the limes in half. cut the orange in half ; 1 half for juice and other for flavor. the flavor side try to cut in circles. circles make you look like a pro. cut onion in circle slices also for the onion rings affect. have the canned jalapenos open.
let's use the plate method.
place a circle slice of orange on the bottom of the plate and place a piece of chicken on top. add another slice of orange on top of that piece of chicken and add orange and lime juice on top of the chicken but remember you will add to other pieces. an onion ring or two and a jalapeno slice add juice for heat. cont the process and stack the chicken to your liking as well.
let the chicken soak up the juices in the freg for 1 hour or so......

Best Sports Bar St. Louis 2007 - Lester's Sports Bar & Grill
9906 Clayton Road
Ladue, MO 63124
Readers' Choice: Hot Shots Sports Bar and Grill
You feel powerful sitting in a place like Lester's Sports Bar & Grill. It's not so much that you're invariably sitting next to a few seven-figure-salaried Claytonians. That's a given. The joint's owned by Busch's Grove proprietor Lester Miller, after all, and even rainmakers get a burger yen. No, what gives you that fearsome dose of megalomania is the acre after acre of plasma screens Miller has installed throughout his bar. With ESPN, ESPN2, ESPN Classic, FOX News, MSNBC, CNBC or CNN playing on at least ten different screens at all times, you feel like you know everything. There's nothing that's happening in the world at this moment that you do not know. You have agents around the world. Nothing escapes your notice. You see everything. You are omniscient. And we're not talking merely about the White House and the latest Cardinals score (any old Hooters will do for that). At Lester's you can indulge your rarefied sporting tastes. You want to see this year's terrier group at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show? Try table 25. How about Magn?s Ver Magn?sson competing in this year's World's Strongest Man competition? That would be table eight.

It has been recently revealed in a report that the secret spaceplane sent by the U. S. is going to land soon to earth. They are scheduling its return to the earth by the start of the month of June. The name of the spacecraft is X-37B and the mission of the same is also not disclosed to anyone but the top officials of the vicinity. There is need to maintain certain secrecy about the same, because it might be involving a number of close ties with the development and research of newer information about the universe.
"The X-37B Orbital Test Vehicle, or OTV, is a non-operational system that will demonstrate a reliable, reusable, unmanned space test platform for the U. S. Air Force. The objectives of the OTV program include space experimentation, risk reduction and a concept of operations", said the Fact sheet of the Air Force.
It remains to be seen whether it has been able to complete the secret mission it had been sent on. It also remains to be seen what sort of facts and myths it has got with itself from its far off conquest.

We like this place. The food is decent and not overpriced. The atmosphere is good although we were seated close to the service area - so I didn't like that and didn't want to complain while my husband enjoyed watching the pizza being made. It was a slow night but we have been there when it was jammed. Would return next trip to the city.
Posted by Fan of John's on 01/26/2006
First advice: GO EARLY! Great calamari, pizza, pizza rolls! Great sandwiches. Skip the salads and the pasta as both are mediocre to bad. I love the old church atmosphere! Great Calamari!
Posted by Calamari on 01/13/2006
John's Pizzeria: just go for the calamari. The calamari is the best I've ever tasted!! If you must have a meal, get pizza or the calzone. Please spare yourself & don't order the pasta - I tried 3 different kinds and all of them were bland and a waste of money. Service is well-known to be horrible here. Even today I was in a table of 4 & I waited over 15 minutes after everyone else got their orders. I had to cancel the order because it was getting ridiculous. No one apologized or tried to expain, nor did they refill my drink. Then they bring out the dish that I cancelled, 15 minutes after I cancelled it. Does this mean that if I didn't cancel it, I would have gotten my dish 30 minutes after everyone got theirs?
Posted by yes on 01/05/2006
Pre theater value, yes, but not much more, long crowded wait, unattentive bar staff, less enthusiastic wait staff, we asked for garlic salt, told it was not available, only grated cheese as a condiment? We ordered the grilled veggies, they arrived ice cold, without explanation, and without the promised fresh mozzarella! The pizza was fine, but really small, skimpy with the toppings too, not worth the you should be grateful just to be here attitude that was the theme. No slices no service no extras no anything, except a decent pizza, not worth it.
Posted by Kelly on 01/03/2006
The first time I ate here I had a pasta dish. I don't remember exactly what it was; I think I blocked it out because it was so bad. The second time, on the other hand, I had pizza, and was pleasantly surprised, considering my first traumatic experience. The moral of the story is: Order the pizza.
Posted by Anonymous on 12/07/2005
Excellent pizza and a ton of atmosphere. Overall rating let down by a grumpy waiter (it cost him his tip) but that could happen anywhere and I would still eat here again.
Posted by Anonymous on 10/18/2005
This is the best pizza in midtown. Just as good as original Bleeker St. location. Atmosphere is unique as it is located in old Church. Very good for lunch, and great value for pre-theater.

A COOL GREEN. Above, Romeo High School senior Kirk Lightcap is working on a solar-powered "scooter cooler" that charges a battery as it's driven. This is one example of the projects the alternative energy curriculum is providing students at the Romeo Engineering and Technology Center. The curriculum helped earn Romeo High School an "evergreen" status with the Michigan Green Schools program. Indian Hills Elementary raised its status to "emerald" this year for implementing eco-friendly initiatives.

High school, Indian Hills
honored for green works
by CHRIS GRAYTwo facilities in the Romeo Community Schools district have shown that green is the unofficial third color of the Bulldogs.
Observer Staff Writer
Romeo High School has maintained its "evergreen" status, the highest ranking for the Michigan Green Schools program, for its alternative energy classes and conservative practices.
Indian Hills Elementary has also been recognized as an "emerald" school, upping its status from "green" in its second year of becoming a more eco-friendly school.
Michigan Green Schools is a non-profit agency that works with schools on projects and ideas that will protect the environment and animals.
The agency, backed by a law established in 2006 and revised in 2010, asks schools to partake in 20 areas of educational, environmental activities in order to receive a certification.
Schools that earn 10 to 14 points are awarded a "green" status, followed by "emerald" for earning 15 to 19 points. The top honor is "evergreen" for making 20 or more points.
Superintendent Nancy Campbell and other Romeo representatives attended a ceremony held by the Macomb County Board of Commissioners on April 16 recognizing the 127 county schools that met or exceeded these requirements.
Of the schools that applied this year, 27 received green, 48 earned emerald and 52 achieved evergreen.
"This is something all of us need to work on as a community, it's bigger than Romeo schools," Campbell said. "We know if we don't preserve and protect, this lovely environment won't be there for our children."
The projects are broken down into five categories: Recycling, energy, environmental protection, miscellaneous and proposed activity. The last category encourages schools to create their own activity so long as it's approved by the county.
Kelly Carson, Students Enriching Romeo through Volunteer Experience (SERVE) coordinator, handles the application for the high school. She said the school continued its paper recycling and adopting an endangered species programs and enhanced literacy programs with green-themed media.
"I was happy to find out that we did get the highest status," she said. "We submitted more potential points than was necessary so that we had enough to count for the highest status."
She said a number of programs at the Romeo Engineering and Technology Center (RETC) were the bulk of the points. Evva Dossin, drafting and alternative energy instructor, said the RETC has done everything from solar panel projects to wind farm field trips.
Dossin said the programs not only work on educating students, but also encouraging outreach into the community, such as working with local businesses for installing alternative energy at their facilities.
"It makes you feel good that you're doing good things and getting recognition for that," Dossin said.
An Indian Hills jewel
This is the second year Indian Hills Elementary has taken up the challenge to be a green school. Amanda Rocha, the teacher-sponsor for Indian Hills' Green School effort, said students and teachers worked hard to increase the number of activities to move up to emerald.
"The first year was learning what we could do, and this year we made it all about the kids and putting them in charge of all these activities," she said.
Some of this year's efforts included the school starting school-wide paper recycling, collecting donations to adopt an endangered gray wolf and decorating 500 Kroger grocery bags to donate back to the store for shoppers to use.
Rocha said part of the credit goes to Leslie Hill, a parent with Indian Hills, who assisted Rocha with the effort. Hill said she was thrilled to see the school upgrade its status.
"I feel like we're finally making progress as a school, and I think the teachers are proud of it," Hill said.
Hill said educating students and parents about taking care of the earth is the first step to motivating people to leave their planet better than how they found it.
"I just want my kids to grow up being responsible for their actions," she said.
Last year, Amanda Moore Elementary earned "emerald" for projects like a native plant garden, vegetable garden and a worm composter.

Libertarian Perspective: Ohio needs to reassess motherhood from rapeWritten by Kenneth Sharp | | firstname.lastname@example.com
The breaking news out of Cleveland involving three young women held captive for as long as a decade brought back to my mind the story of another young woman from the Midwest, Chicago-area attorney Shauna Prewitt. On Oct. 4, I had the opportunity to hear Prewitt speak at the University of Toledo College of Law. The topic was motherhood through rape and the lack of protections for the mothers and their children. This is a topic Prewitt has firsthand experience with. While still in college, she was raped and became pregnant. Though conflicted at first, she decided to keep her child. At first glance it may not appear that these stories have much in common, but what they share is motherhood through rape.
At least one of the young women in Cleveland, Amanda Berry, is a mother; undoubtedly her captor will be found to be the father. Prewitt was shocked to learn then, as many of you also will be shocked to learn now, that fathers in rape cases have rights. This has a lot to do with our perception of rape and women who give birth to a child conceived by rape. First, it is important to see the child as the mother's and not the rapist's. I have seen, in the comments sections on the Cleveland story, well-intentioned people giving Berry credit for raising her rapist's child. It is her child — conceived in rape, but her child, not the rapist's. Nothing rightfully belongs to one who acquired it by force.
A second important change must come from our collective thinking about the "degrees" we place reflexively on victims of rape. As Prewitt pointed out, when the woman aborts we instinctively give her report of rape high credibility. If she chooses to place the baby for adoption, we still give her report great credibility. But if she keeps her child, some feel that the mother may have some other motivation and may not have been raped at all.
The degrees are also separated by the "stranger rape" prototype and the "acquaintance/date rape" prototype. The stranger rape report is highly credible, while the acquaintance or date rape is seen by some as more suspect, especially if a woman decides to keep the child. The problem is that the vast majority of women who are raped are not raped by a stranger. While the woman is not given the respect she deserves in telling her story, the male aggressor is given undue influence in her life and that of her child.
I have two examples to show how the legal system in America can favor the rapist over the mother. In the first, a 14-year-old girl was raped and brought the baby to term. She then sought to give the child up for adoption. She was legally required to notify the father, an adult. The court granted her motion to give up her rights to the child. The rapist kept his rights and sued her for support.
In the other example, a woman gave birth to twins after a date rape. The rapist learned of their existence and sued to establish paternity and get visitation. The woman was, at the time, living with a domestic partner and the rapist attempted to use her sexual orientation against her.
Prewitt listed Ohio as one of the many states that does not have overt protection for mothers of rape. Parental termination is the only sure answer. The legislature has not seen the issue as important yet. Perhaps the case in Cleveland will bring it to the forefront.
The State of Ohio may find ways to fast-track termination of parental rights to the father from this case, but it still leaves the fact that Ohio has no real protections for women who conceive through rape and decide to keep the baby. It is a black mark on our state and our legislators that this issue has not already been addressed.
Prewitt pointed to two states that have at least a start on the issue if our legislators need guidance, Missouri, where her own rape occurred, and Maryland. As usual, it will require a groundswell of citizen support to spur action.
I encourage those who wish to do more on this issue to read Prewitt's own account at http://georgetown lawjournal.org/files/pdf/98-3/Prewitt.PDF and then contact their representatives, as I intend to do.

Thank you for this... I'm wondering right now what my daughter is hearing at school. And I have been wondering what to tell her when she gets home. Now I know I will tell her exactly the last sentence you wrote here. Thank you.
I'll bet any of the other treatments the little boy was receiving were MUCH more harsh. And it's not like he lit up a blunt and played Puff Puff Give with his 2 year old. I don't know what I would do if it were my own child, but I'm glad this dad stepped up and took his child's welfare into account for himself. You know your own child best. I'm happy the result is that the little guy is cancer-free.
What the heck?!? People are CRAZY!
So cute! Way to go, Cake Lady!! My son asked me to make a cake that looks like a snake for his birthday this weekend....got any pointers? haha!!!
that IS terrible...Ya know, it's something I've noticed a lot more lately, generally speaking... a lot of people seem to take less notice of the big picture and seem to focus on one particular bit of information. And usually how it pertains to them directly. I don't necessarily think that's wrong, because we all need to relate. But I do think it's a good idea to open the eyes once in a while and take in all that surrounds us, even if it's not good. Somebody needs to help this girl...in more ways than one.
Great job, Jamie. I am looking forward to reading Dr Carter's book! I love your statement about putting your oxygen mask on first. That's the best description of Happy Mom=Happy Kids I've ever read.
As for the scathing comments people left about the blogging mom who needed some alone time, that's just terrible! What they might not understand is that sometimes alone time might be a whopping 5 minutes, and that's all we might need to regroup and reset. Not too much to ask, I don't think.
Wow, what a great question. It's one I'll be thinking about up until the minute someone accuses my kids of bullying. I have no idea what I would do. Scary!
I love you, Dr. Cornett. You have found the silver lining. Best wishes on your speech this weekend. You're going to rock the house.
What a great discussion! I personally have mixed feelings about this one, but tend to agree mostly with Elizabeth. I think it's important to have kids know how to defend themselves, but also to know that not all circumstances demand full force retribution! (Did I spell that right, dasgreat?) I think teaching kids more about having confidence in themselves is a better way to go. It's harder, yes, but most things worth learning ARE hard.
Yep, people are stupid sometimes. I'm sure the guy didn't think of the repercussions when he did what he did... But that shouldn't make the repercussions any smaller. Either way, no matter what is decided he'll be living with it. I think that's a pretty severe punishment in itself.
OK, maybe punching him in the face is a little harsh. I wouldn't really do that, but he really made me mad.
I hadn't heard of this guy before reading this, but I'll tell you this...if I saw him, I might very well punch him in the face. And that would be BEFORE I heard his side of the story. I admittedly don't have many strong convictions...but the one I do have is in regards to children. You just don't mess with them. No matter what.
That's a pretty big jump, don't ya think? Saying that Ms Emmer is against men. Isn't it obvious why she wrote about this topic involving these people? It's ALL over the news. A couple years ago, it would've been about Britney Spears who, as far as I know, is not a man. I have confidence that this article is getting the correct point across...watch what you do, because your kids are watching you.
Please tell your friends they have prayers coming from down here in south Jersey.
Joan, you rock! Thank you SO much for speaking up to the crazy man you didn't strap his kid in.
Good job! I agree with making it fun...we also have the Touch N' Brush! Also, we let our 2 year old spit all over the bathtub when he's brushing...he's a boy, so he thinks it's way cool to make ANY task into a gross one. I also think it helps a LOT to bring your young kids to the dentist with you on your checkups to show them it's really no big deal. A lot of kids get scared about going because of what they hear and see in books and TV, etc. If you can show them it's ok, then they'll most likely be ok, too.
I don't like the pajama pant phenomenon that's going on these days. But then again, I DID wear boxer shorts over leggings to high school back in the day.
I can't fall on either side here... I am very fortunate that both my kids have not had any negative reactions to any of their vaccines thus far. I will continue with the required ones during their school years, because I really do think they help ward off terrible illnesses and they stop illnesses from spreading to the kids whose immunities are compromised.
However, like I said, I am very fortunate. I can't imagine how vaccines and autism are NOT related...I think everything is related in one way or another. No matter what you put in your body, it is going to react. I think every situation deserves a weighing...risk vs. benefit. For me, the benefit seemed to outweigh the risk when it came to vaccinations. For other parents, it might be the reverse. My problem is the state requirement for school age kids... Even if the vaccine is something sent down straight from Heaven, I think it should be the parents' choice whether or not their child has to take it.
Right on! I LOVE all the cards and like to make a huge display in my dining room by taping them to the mirror...and window....and china cabinet! It's so much fun seeing everyone's smiling faces every day and that trip out to the mailbox isn't a chore during the month of December. :-)
Bring some snow in from outside in big bowls and they can make mini snowmen on cookie sheets Then put them in the freezer to save for summertime! I did it last year when my son was not feeling too great and couldn't play outside! It was really fun!

SAT scores have been released, and Charleston County School District (CCSD) students continue to outperform their state peers in Critical Reading and Writing and hold steady in Math. The Critical Reading score was equal to that of the national average for public schools and slightly lower than the national average when comparing all students in all schools.
The overall composite score increased five points from last year and CCSD was the only local school district to improve from last year and the county's overall participation number (65 percent) is among the top ten districts in the state.
Burke High School (+ 43), North Charleston High School (+ 99) and Stall
High School (+ 41) all saw significant improvements in their overall composite scores from last year.
"I am encouraged with the improvements we continue to see as a district because it demonstrates that the hard work and commitment to Vision 2016 is making a difference. Couple this news with the improvement we made in the 2012 graduation rate, and the fact our seniors just earned a record $50 million in scholarships this past year and it's clear – we are increasing the number of CCSD students ready for post-secondary education," said Superintendent Nancy J. McGinley.

MGM was at one time said to have "more stars than there are in heaven". The studio certainly poured quite a few of them into its 1933 drama Night Flight, produced by David O Selznick and directed by Clarence Brown, which features both John and Lionel Barrymore along with Helen Hayes, Clark Gable, Robert Montgomery and Myrna Loy. It's an all-star cast list to rival Grand Hotel or Dinner at Eight, but this lesser-known film is on a smaller scale and doesn't have the same compelling quality as the other two – perhaps because it was severely cut after its premiere, so what we have are the butchered remains of an epic. Most of the time the various stars are kept separate, with several of them never sharing a scene. The two Barrymores are both superb and bring the film alive whenever they are on screen, especially when they are together. But some of the other actors are wasted, especially Gable, who hardly speaks a line and is only seen wearing a helmet in the cockpit of his plane, having to act silently by means of his eyes alone.
Tag: John Barrymore
Counsellor at Law (William Wyler, 1933)
Back to the pre-Code period – and back to John Barrymore. I've already written about one fine, though little-known, film where he plays a lawyer, State's Attorney (1932). The following year he starred in this even better legal drama, which must be one of his finest talkies, and is available on DVD from Kino, though in region 1 only. Barrymore gives a restrained but moving performance as a workaholic lawyer, who spends much of the film having two or three phone conversations at once. Sadly there are no courtroom scenes this time – but it's an utterly compelling film, which repays repeated viewings. Indeed, you'll need them to catch all the quickfire dialogue, especially in the scenes with Isabel Jewell chattering away irrepressibly as switchboard operator Bessie.
Like many early 1930s films, this drama is based on a stage play, in this case by Elmer Rice. It does betray its stage origins in the way that it is entirely based in one setting, within the Simon and Tedesco suite of legal offices in the Empire State building. However, where some films set in just one location might drag at times, Counsellor at Law, an early success for great director William Wyler, moves at a breathless pace. Rice, who adapted his own play for the screen, had trained and worked as a lawyer, and the legal background feels very authentic as far as I can tell, tackling still-current issues such as insider trading and professional standards.
Nothing Sacred (William A Wellman, 1937)
I'm returning to the director whose career I've been intermittently following on this blog, William A Wellman – and to another famous movie, which has a lot in common with its predecessor, A Star Is Born, though this time the emphasis is on satirical screwball comedy rather than tragedy. Nothing Sacred stars Carole Lombard as Hazel Flagg, a lively young woman fed up with her monotonous small-town existence. She is wrongly diagnosed as dying from radium poisoning, and brought to the big city by New York newspaper reporter Wally Cook (Fredric March) for a final fling. But just how long can a final fling last?
To be honest, I don't feel Nothing Sacred has worn quite as well as A Star Is Born, but the problem may simply be that I had already seen it a couple of times in the past and watched it again this time on the back of repeat viewings of Small Town Girl and A Star Is Born – plus other directors' versions of the Star Is Born story. So it's likely that I had slightly overdosed on portrayals of women desperate to escape from small towns by the time I got to this one. Also I think Wellman's melodrama often grabs me more than his comedy. Anyway, this celebrated movie is definitely worth seeing and is a must for Carole Lombard fans, as she gives a sparkling performance.
The Sea Beast (Millard Webb, 1926)
Since reading Moby Dick a few years ago, I've been interested in seeing different film and stage versions of it. I was especially intrigued to see John Barrymore playing Ahab, as sadly only one of his full Shakespearean roles survives on film (Mercutio in Romeo and Juliet). It is often said that Ahab is very near to Shakespeare's tragic heroes in his monomania. Barrymore actually played the role in both the first two adaptations, this silent epic and a talkie made in 1930, directed by Lloyd Bacon, which I haven't seen as yet. (I'm hoping this may turn up on Warner Archive before too long – I believe it is occasionally shown on TCM in the US, so there should be a reasonable print around).
I saw The Sea Beast online, at YT, in a very poor quality print, so I can't really review it properly but just wanted to say something about it while it is fresh in my mind. There was a DVD release in region 1 by Televista, now deleted, but I gather from comments at the imdb that the quality of the DVD is also dire, very pale and washed-out. The film could really do with being restored and released in a double set with the talkie version.
Topaze (Harry d'Abbadie d'Arrast, 1933)
I'm always saying that I plan to write more shorter postings, but now I'm really going to do it, as I'm so busy these days that it's a choice between writing short postings or not updating this blog at all. Anyway, I will hopefully put a good selection of pictures with each posting, and over the next week or two I'm planning to concentrate on John Barrymore. As I've said before, although Barrymore is best-known for his silent films, I have seen more of his talkies and these tend to appeal to me because of his beautiful speaking voice – however, I do want to see more of his silents too.
Topaze is a rather obscure but entertaining comedy-drama from RKO (sadly not on DVD, though it did come out on Laserdisc – but at time of posting it can be found online at YT), adapted from a French play by Marcel Pagnol, which sees Barrymore cast wildly against type. He plays Professor Auguste Topaze, a timid, down-at-heel teacher in a boys' school who is also a brilliant scientist – and who gets caught up in a scam to sell tap water as a health-giving mineral water. For most of the film his face is concealed by facial hair, and that famous profile is hardly glimpsed, though he does get a chance to look handsome briefly in the final scenes. I think he does a great job of playing a part which at first sounds like a surprising role for him – and it is interesting to see him if anything slightly underplaying rather than hamming it up. The other main star is Myrna Loy, as Coco, the sensible young mistress of a crooked baron played by Reginald Mason.
Grand Hotel (Edmund Goulding, 1932)
I've been getting increasingly interested in the Barrymores recently and watching a lot of their films, so I want to write about some more of them here. Glossy drama Grand Hotel is one of three films made in 1932 which starred brothers John and Lionel together – the others were Arsene Lupin, which I have seen but only in almost unwatchable bootleg form, and spectacular historical epic Rasputin and the Empress, also starring sister Ethel.
By far the greatest of these three is Grand Hotel, a breathtaking MGM drama – and one of the first films to boast an all-star cast. Greta Garbo got top billing, with her name given in the cast list simply as "Garbo", while the two Barrymores, Wallace Beery and Joan Crawford were the other big star names. The film had a huge budget for the time, estimated at 700,000 dollars, and was a smash hit – one of the special features on the Warner DVD, which is included in a Joan Crawford box set, shows excited crowds turning up for the premiere and breaking through a police cordon to swarm towards their favourite stars.
What Price Hollywood? (George Cukor, 1932)
I'll admit I originally wanted to see What Price Hollywood? because I knew it was an important influence on William A Wellman's masterpiece A Star Is Born, released just five years later. (David O Selznick produced both films and they have the same basic story.) But, having watched George Cukor's pre-Code twice, I now see it as a fine film in its own right, with compelling performances by both Lowell Sherman and Constance Bennett and wonderfully sharp, witty dialogue. I know I'm always moaning on this blog about 1930s movies not being available on DVD, but it is particularly frustrating that this one hasn't been released as yet. I can only think that it is because none of the lead actors are household names, and, although Cukor is a celebrated director, he isn't one of the very few who get box sets devoted to their work.
This is one of the first films where Hollywood eats itself, and it is often said to be harder-edged and more disillusioned with the world of showbiz than either Wellman's A Star Is Born or Cukor's own remake. However, before the disillusion sets in, it does fully show the glamour and seduction of Hollywood, with an extraordinary opening scene where Mary Evans (Constance Bennett), alone in her bedroom, is eagerly reading a fan magazine and imagining she is Greta Garbo in a clinch with Clark Gable. She is clearly in love with the whole idea of Hollywood, not just the handsome actor, as she devours ads for make-up and stockings which have been given the seal of approval by beautiful starlets.

Italian Schiavona Broadsword, Venice ca. 1650
Click thumbnails for expanded view.
- $4,295.00
- Quantity Available: 1
The schiavona is a distinctly Venetian sword carried for centuries by the Dalmatian mercenaries hired by the Doge of Venice. The earliest examples had a simple cruciform hilt which evolved progressively to the ornate intricate basket hilt of the 18th C. The one feature that remained throughout its period of use is the distinctive cat's head pommel, the earliest examples being of iron with later pommels of brass or bronze. This 17th C example features a possibly earlier unmarked 35 1/2" double-edged broadsword blade with a central fuller extending to within about 6" of the point (scattered pitting and point rounded). Hilt of flattened bars with chiseled double grooves in the major elements, forge-welded into a protective basket; riveted thumb ring on reverse. Cast bronze cats head pommel with dark patina; original leather-wrapped grip. Unmodified straight reverse quillon, rarely found, as the vast majority were bent for actual use due to the fact that the straight quillon tended to jab into the side of the wearer. Basket guard loose, as typically found, otherwise very good with dark age patina. Overall length 41 1/2"

Chad Cassidy took over as Amerks interim head coach in February leading the team to the playoffs. After the season it was unclear if Cassidy would join Ron Rolston's staff in Buffalo or remain in Rochester. On Tuesday, GM Darcy Reiger announced the Sabers have hired Joe Sacco as an assistant and Cassidy will be back in Rochester.
Reiger would not commit to saying Cassidy will be the head coach of the Amerks, but all signs point towards that being the case.
Last season, the Amerks went 16-11-1 under Cassidy, losing to Toronto in the first round of the playoffs.
As for Sacco, he coached the Colorado Avalanche the past four seasons and was fired in April after a 16-25-7 record.

We incountered a problem of sophos server when I see the task Manager SavService.exe 100% CPU usage it caused to hang up the server. Please help our problem.
Mon 21-May-2012 11:38
Hello Tedz
This may be configuration related. You can configure Sophos to be extreme with scanning.
Starting off on the basics;
Does this happen at certain times of the day (Consider schedule scans, what is configured and if it is at a lower priority)
Does this happen when accessing ZIP files, or large files such as architecture pictures (perhaps consider excluding these file types)
Does this happen when using certain programs which may use Databases, JAVA, (This could be emulation - consult Sophos)
Is this on startup, when an update happens, when a backup is taking place.
What version of Sophos is installed?
Programs like process monitor could give us some more insight.
Looking forward to the response

Hi wickedkittenz,
Some times when start up the pc or the pc is all ready on and they will totaly unused by the user due to the cpu usege 100% and it takes time to wait.
SEC:5.0 Enpoint: 10.0
Tue 22-May-2012 13:20
Hi Teddy
Is there a common factor across these machines, maybe an internal program being used?
Are they XP, Vista, Windows 7?
Are scheduled scans configured and when are they configured to run?
It might be worth looking into then about the updating (if it is on startup), what configurations are in place in the updating policy applying to those machines?
Sun 10-Jun-2012 05:11
Hi i am also experiencing the same problem. I am running windows 7 and it is not searching for new updates because they have all been unstalled. When i am using my computer the CPU will shoot up to 100%. I looked under resources in task manager CPU and it is always due to savservice.exe. Any information on how to prevent this?
Many thanks
Mon 11-Jun-2012 13:50 - edited Mon 11-Jun-2012 14:46
Can you rule out a scheduled scan taking place during these times? The SAV main interface (SAVMain.exe) will show any on-demand scans taking place in the bottom left (as long as you have rights to see them).
Also I assume the scanning options (on-access) haven't been changed from the defaults or at least the defaults have been restored to see if it helps. Scanning inside archive files on-access or scan all files for example.
It is possible to turn on logging in the SAV driver to log what it's looking at. To do so, add a DWORD value called LogFlags under the driver key:
For Vista, Win 7, 2008 and 2008R2.
For XP/2003 it is:
Setting it to 15 (decimal) will do. For full logging you can set it to hex FFFFFFFF but that is more than we need and will just slow things down further.
Once created, restart the SAVService, the standard logfile SAV.txt will then have the details. The log will grow quite quick so remember to remove the DWORD value and restart the service. The sav.txt log file is in the following locations depending on OS:
C:\ProgramData\Sophos\Sophos Anti-Virus\logs\ (Vista+)
C:\documents and settings\all users\application data\Sophos\Sophos Anti-Virus\logs\ (XP/2003)
I've just knocked together a quck script (it is for Windows Vista, Win7, 2008 only based on the paths and registry keys, although you could change the paths: registry and logs directory to those mentioned above) to automate this and collate a results file with all files accessed more than once ordered by the number of entries in the log. Maybe that would be worth a try. VBScript is at the bottom of the post. Save as something.vbs and run it. Maybe you could upload the results file/contents here.
The problem is, adding the key requires the restart of the service. This will of course reset the cache of what has already been scanned so the service will be doing more again than normal at startup. Having said that it may still be useful. The other apprach would be to use ProcessMonitor (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb

- Production of the human adenosine A2A receptor in Pichia pastoris, its solubilization and purification, and the selection of a specific single-chain Fv fragment by phage display (2006)
- G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) comprise the largest membrane protein family and play an essential role in signal transduction through the cell membrane. They are currently the targets of approximately 50 % of the pharmaceuticals on the market (Klabunde and Hessler, 2002). However, only one high-resolution GPCR structure has been determined up to now, that of bovine rhodopsin (Palczewski et al., 2000). The GPCR activation and regulation mechanisms are still unknown and other GPCR structures are thus required. MePNet (Membrane Protein Network) was a European consortium dedicated to structural studies of GPCRs. The approach was to produce 100 GPCRs in three expression systems (Escherichia coli, Pichia pastoris and Semliki Forest Virus infected mammalian cells) in order to select at each step of the process (production, solubilization, purification) the constructs that fulfilled quantity and quality (functionality) requirements for crystallization trials. In our team, we screened 38 of the 100 targets in P. pastoris. For each receptor, the clone with the highest production level was identified by dot-blot. The size and homogeneity of each receptor were then analyzed by Western-blot. The human adenosine A2A receptor showed a well-defined and pronounced single band and was thus selected for further characterization. The adenosine A2A receptor is a GPCR mainly localized in the central nervous system and, as it antagonizes dopaminergic activity, it has great potential as a drug target for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. Functional characterization by binding assays with the specific antagonist [3H]-ZM241385 demonstrated a Bmax of 56 +/- 3 pmol/mg i.e. pmol of binder per milligram of total membrane protein, and a KD of 0.40 +/- 0.02 nM. Receptor production was then improved by lowering the induction temperature, decreasing the induction time and adding DMSO to the medium. For large-scale production, fermention reached around 300 g cells (wet weight)/L culture, which provided 43 mg of functional receptor in membranes per liter of culture. Functional solubilization was achieved with dodecyl-β-D-maltoside and the soluble yield was increased to 70-80 % of the membrane content by addition of cholesteryl hemisuccinate and increasing the ionic strength. The receptor was successfully purified via Ni-NTA and monomeric avidin chromatography in the presence of the antagonist ZM241385. This strategy produced a pure, homogeneous and stable receptor preparation with functionality demonstrated by radioligand binding assays. The total receptor yield after purification was routinely around 20 % of the membrane functional receptor content and 2 g of membranes provided 4 mg of pure receptor for crystallization trials. GPCRs are very difficult targets for crystallization, and co-crystallization with antibody fragments has been shown to be a successful method for crystallization of membrane proteins. In order to develop such a tool for the adenosine A2A receptor, a single-chain Fv (scFv) fragment specific to the purified receptor was selected by phage display. The receptor was functionally immobilized on the surface of streptavidin beads and after two rounds of selection, 6 different phages were identified several times. After production in E. coli and purification via Ni-NTA affinity chromatography, 4 out of the 6 scFv fragments were sufficiently enriched to be tested by ELISA. For the ELISA, the receptor was functionally immobilized via the biotinylation domain of the construct in a 96-well streptavidin-coated plate. The antibody fragments binding to the receptor were identified based on interaction with HRP-conjugated protein L. One scFv fragment gave a positive ELISA signal 10 fold above background and titration of the scFv fragment binding to the receptor was specific and saturable. However no complex of scFv fragment and receptor was observed on gel filtration. In order to have a more sensitive detection method, the scFv fragment was labeled with fluorescein: a complex was then observed up on gel filtration but the binding appeared to be non-specific. A pull-down assay with immobilized non-labeled scFv fragment finally confirmed the specificity of the binding, but also the low affinity of the interaction. Affinity maturation of this specific scFv fragment by a random mutagenesis and selection process should improve this parameter in order to obtain an adapted tool for co-crystallization.
- Funktionelle Charakterisierung der C-terminalen-Domänen des Korepressors N-CoR (2006)
- Although in general cells are genetically identical in multicellular organisms, the differential expression of genomic information enables cell type definition and specific organ function. In eukaryotic cells, the DNA is associated with histone and non-histones proteins into a restrictive structure called chromatin. Assembly into chromatin does not only protect and package the linear double stranded DNA into the nucleus but is fundamental for the execution of diverse genetic programs. Posttranslational modifications of histones regulate the accessibility of the DNA to transcription factors and serve as scaffold for binding of regulatory proteins. Nuclear receptors are transcription factors that bind specific target sequences on the DNA and recruit transcriptional coregulators at the promoter. These are able to modify the chromatin structure in an activating or repressing manner. The contribution of corepressors to the biological actions of nuclear receptors has turned out to be essential. Impaired corepressor function can be the cause of endocrine malfunctions, neoplastic diseases or severe developmental abnormalities. To better understand the role of the nuclear receptor corepressor N-CoR the unknown function of the extreme C-terminus was investigated. In this thesis the interaction of N-CoR with the non-POU-domain containing octamer-binding protein Non0/p54nrb, that was found tobe a potential interaction partner in a yeast-two-hybrid screen, was confirmed. This protein contains two RNA recognition motifs (RRM) and is described as a multifunctional protein since it is involved in transcription Initiation as well as in pre-mRNA processing. The RRM1 motif was determined to be essential and sufficient for the interaction with N-CoR. Obtaining dominant negative effect with the Non0/p54nrb RRM1 deletion mutant in functional reporter assays, data support that NonO modulates the capacity of N-CoR to repress and alters the recruitment of N-CoR by nuclear receptors to targeted Promoters. Additional analyses suggest that the N- and C- terminus of N-CoR are involved in intramolecular interactions and that they regulate each other. Taken results together a functional model is proposed that supports the biological relevance of the interaction of N-CoR with NonO and the function of N-CoR C-terminus acting as asensor that evaluates the ratio of corepressors and coactivators in the nuclear receptor environment. N-CoR repressive capacity would be altered by modulating factors like NonO that interacts with N-CoR C-terminus. The mechanism support that splicing and transcription regulation are physically and functionallylinked to ensure the appropriate amount of messager RNA to be transcript and process in response to stimulation intensity and cell context.
- Association of bacterial respiratory complexes (2006)
- The mitochondrial respiratory chain consists of NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (Complex-I), succinate:ubiquinone reductase (Complex-II), ubiquinol:cytochrome c reductase (Complex-III), cytochrome c oxidase (Complex-IV) and cytochrome c as an electron mediator between Complex-III and Complex-IV. Paracoccus denitrificans membranes were used as a model system for the association of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. More than 50 years ago, a model was given for a supercomplex assembly formed by stable associations between these complexes. This model gradually shifted by the model of random diffusion given by Hackenbrock et al. 1986 Different independent approaches were used to further analyze this situation in a native membrane environment, thus avoiding any perturbation caused by detergent solubilization: (a) measuring the distance and orientation of the different complexes by multi-frequency EPR Spectroscopy we started to analyze simple system, the interaction between CuA fragment derived from P. denitrificans and various c type cytochrome by Pulsed X band and G band (180 GHz) EPR. Partner proteins for the CuA (excess negative surface charge) were (i) horse heart cytochrome c which contain a large number of positive charges in heme crevice,(ii) the cytochrome c552 soluble fragment (physiological electron donor and have positive charges), and as a control (iii) the cytochrome c1 soluble fragment (negative surface potential, derived from bc1 complex) The measurements were performed at several magnetic field positions varying temperature between 5 to 30 K. Both the X band and the high-field measurements show the existence of a strong relaxation enhancement of the CuA by the specific binding of the P. denitrificans cytochrome c552 and horse heart cytochrome c. This relaxation enhancement is dependent on temperature and provides information about the distance and relative orientation of the two interacting spins within this protein-protein complex. (b) For quantitative information about lateral diffusion of cytochrome c oxidase in the native membrane Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy (FCS) was used. In this experiment, diffusion coefficients for oxidase differ in the case of supercomplex for wild type membrane and for two deletion mutants lacking either Complex-I or Complex-III. (c) The optical absorption spectroscopy at microsecond level resolution was tried for the translational mobility of oxidase in membrane vesicles. Due to the presence of different hemes in the native membrane, carbon monoxide (CO) used as a probe for the experiment. The optimization of the experimental conditions were carried out to get the optimal signal.

The Washington Nationals -- who never posted a winning record, never reached the playoffs and never won a division title in their first seven seasons in the District -- didn't just knock down
Davey Johnson left the Nationals dugout in the seventh inning of today's 5-1 win over the Phillies after losing feeling in his left leg, a sensation doctors attributed to a lower back problem,
Game in a nutshell: Knowing they could clinch the No. 1 seed for the NL playoffs with a victory today -- regardless of the result of the Reds' game tonight in St.
In a season of plenty of baseball firsts for the Nationals, perhaps the biggest first of them all just happened: Teddy won the Presidents Race.
The NL East title clinched at last, Davey Johnson felt it was more important Tuesday night to rest most of his regulars than field his very best lineup against the Phillies in an attempt to lock up

Hulk's agent has admitted that his client is keen on a move away from the Portuguese side.
The 25-year-old has been linked with the likes of Chelsea, Tottenham and Zenit.
"It was Porto who rejected €50million for Hulk from Zenit," Pinto da Costa told reporters.
"I think it is ridiculous to hear that Zenit's board did not sanction such an offer, when two of their chiefs were here to present that exact bid for the player."
Porto are keen to get closer to the €100million release clause in his contract, before selling the striker.

Self-Help to hold groundbreaking for Kent Corner
The real estate arm of Durham-based Self Help, a lending and development organization, plans to hold a groundbreaking Jan. 6 to mark the start of construction on a $13 million development that will feature a start-up co-operative grocery store.
Called "Kent Corner," the project -- two buildings, green space and parking at West Chapel Hill and Kent streets – should be complete by early 2015.
Buildings on the site, including a church and child care business, have been demolished. A home called the PathWays House at 1115 W. Chapel Hill St. will be moved. It houses a Duke University Chapel one-year residential discernment program for recently graduated Duke alumni. Participants spend 10 months in the house.
The new grocery store, called Durham Central Market, will occupy 10,000 square feet of retail space fronting West Chapel Hill Street. Fundraising is underway for the store, which will have an emphasis on local products.
The Center for Child and Family Health, which is now in the N.C. Mutual Life headquarters building on West Chapel Hill Street, will occupy the majority of the 33,000-square-foot office building facing Kent Street.
Started in 1996, the center works to alleviate the effects of trauma on children through prevention and treatment services for children and families. The center is a collaborative effort of Duke, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, N.C. Central University, and Child and Parent Support Services.
For the Kent Corner project, SunTrust Bank and its subsidiary, SunTrust Community Capital, are providing project financing supported by their New Markets Tax Credit program.
Self-Help has been working with community and neighborhood groups, the City of Durham and Duke University for nearly a decade on housing and community development.
The collaboration has produced about 150 units of affordable housing for first-time homeowners and renters. Community planning sessions were held on the Kent Corner redevelopment to ensure it will enhance the neighborhood.
At the groundbreaking, Durham Mayor Bill Bell is expected to speak, as are the executive director of the Center for Child and Family Health, the president of the Durham Central Market board, Self-Help's executive vice president, Duke's vice president for Durham and regional affairs and Self-Help's project leader.
Founded in Durham in 1980, Self-Help is a nonprofit community development lender, real estate developer, and credit union that works with people traditionally underserved by conventional markets.
It owns 20 commercial properties in North Carolina and Washington, D.C. Most of the properties are historic redevelopments in downtown districts. In downtown Durham, Self-Help owns and manages six properties, including its own headquarters at 301 W. Main St. and the MDC headquarters at 307 W. Main St.

The early reviews are in for The Dark Knight Rises, and they are overwhelmingly positive. However, it's notable that Eric D. Snider, considered a "Top Critic" by the film site Rotten Tomatoes, posted a bad review of the film before having seen the film, and did so simply to try and make a point about film rating scores and fan reactions to bad critical reviews. [See bottom of article for update!]
Here's the problem with Snider's underlying premise, however — when a supposed top critic posts bad reviews of a film to intentionally lower the movie's Rotten Tomatoes score, under the disingenuous premise that he's trying to say the score doesn't matter, he's demonstrating that he DOES think the score is important, and more to the point he is engaging in precisely the sort of behavior by some critics that causes fans to react so negatively in the first place.
You aren't proving yourself to be the "adult in the room" by stooping to that kind of behavior, and I'd argue that this silly reviewers-versus-Nolan-fans rivalry needs to stop. The people on one side are mostly young teenage males who post angry comments online. The other side are adults who are paid professionals and who should be a bit more mature than writing fake reviews of films that include — as Snider's does — literally calling Rotten Tomato commenters "the worst human beings on Earth."
Of course, Snider might claim he's just joking and mimicking the behavior of the commenters, and other such attempts to defend his post and insults. But that would just be more disingenuousness, because the review clearly is designed to cause a bad reaction from precisely the people he criticizes for bad reactions, and you don't make some kind of principled point about bad behavior by engaging in the same behavior in order to provoke more of said bad behavior.
Snider openly admits he's intentionally trying to manipulate the Rotten Tomato score system, he admits he hasn't even really seen the film yet, and he admits to overtly bad intentions — altering the RT score and angering RT community members — while also openly insulting Rotten Tomato members as well. So, some people are bound to start asking, why is he still granted Top Critic status on Rotten Tomatoes? And now that he's rather obviously admitted to bias and bad intentions, does that change how trustworthy his reviews are in the eyes of the public and — more to the point — in the eyes of Rotten Tomatoes?
It should. Because film critics and sites that want to retain respect for professional film criticism should have higher standards and expect better behavior than that. Using a professional film critic platform to engage a rivalry with kids is not demonstrating seriousness, trustworthiness, or maturity at all. And using a professional film critic platform to intentionally try to manipulate film scoring and to get a kick out of angering film audiences, when not having even seen the film either, is just about the worst example of film critic behavior I can think of, and only serves to give fuel to those who question the legitimacy and motivations of some film critics.
I personally have been very critical of bad fan behavior, and of the extreme negative treatment some younger and more immature fans have heaped upon reviewers simply because the film critics disagreed with the fans about a movie. The fans have at times said very ugly, hurtful, hateful things, and I don't for a moment defend that kind of immature lashing out and intolerance. However, it's important to remember who those fans are, that they are young and they act immature because they literally ARE immature, and we can criticize them and demand better behavior without taking our professional platforms and using them to engage in exactly the same sort of insult-hurling troll behavior we claim to lament.
In 2010, another writer openly called for some reviewers to give Inception bad reviews just on principle, because there were "too many" positive reviews for the film and the writer felt that Nolan's fans needed to be taught a lesson for having reacted negatively to some film critics when The Dark Knight came out in 2008.
I don't dislike Snider at all, I don't know him and I have nothing against him personally. I know people who don't like the Nolan Batman films, and who dislike plenty of movies I enjoy, and that doesn't bother me at all. But the behavior of critics who think it's funny or appropriate to use their platform to skew review rating systems and to "teach those kids a lesson" so to speak, are just adding to the problem and letting what were just angry comments by a small segment of hardcore immature fans become something that is actually now altering the ratings of films.
The fans didn't do that, YOU did that. And it's wrong, and I hope Rotten Tomatoes takes some sort of corrective action to stop that kind of behavior by critics whose work is supposed to help provide serious, accurate scoring for films.
UPDATE: The negative review in question has now been removed from the Rotten Tomato review count, apparently after Mr. Snider himself altered the review slightly. It no longer shows up among the total reviews, nor among the Top Critic reviews.


text: The worst-case scenario for these Mavericks might be sneaking into the playoffs and drawing the top-seeded San Antonio Spurs. By all indications, that series just be just as brief as last season's sweep at the hands of the Mavs' other Interstate 35 neighbors, the Oklahoma City Thunder. Don't be fooled by Friday night's final score. This loss was a lot more lopsided than 113-107 indicates.

The Bellevue College Continuing Education (BC CE) Web Design Certificate Program offers a breadth of classes that can't be found in other web design programs. Unlike other programs, BC CE's program includes separate required courses on search engine optimization, web accessibility, or user experience design and separate electives on responsive design for a variety of devices or designing for mobile sites.
The program offers a broad range of other electives too, including basic courses in Flash, web analytics, web content development, and WordPress and an advanced course in Photoshop.
The program culminates in the Capstone course, which focuses on completion of the Capstone Project. In this project, students build a portfolio website for themselves or the client of their choice. The project highlights the skills acquired in the other courses in the program and helps the student to prepare for a final class presentation on their design. Satisfactory completion of the Web Design Capstone Project is required to receive the Web Design Certificate.
The program's small classes let instructors give students personal attention. Classes are taught during evenings and weekends to accommodate the schedules of working professionals.
Our flexible program lets you start any quarter you like and finish at your own pace. You can take as few as one or two classes a week. Although the program can be completed in as little as 3 quarters (9 months), you may take as long as 3 years to earn your certificate.

I was diagnosed with Celiac about a month ago via blood work only.
I've been reading up a lot on recovery and getting a bit concerned about healing. I have scheduled follow up blood work for about 3 months from now and the doctor will review at that point. I'm also meeting with a nutritionist next week. I'm still getting bouts of diarrhea about once a week, although overall I'm starting to feel better and my BMs are looking so much better these days for the most part.
Do I need to request any follow up testing in regards to cancer, or other possible problems? I didn't get the endoscopy pre-diagnosis, and I'm not adding gluten back in at this point in order to test, but should I request one down the line to confirm I'm healing? Or is a change in the ttg or DGP enough? I'm scared I could have other problems (cancer) that no one ever caught, even if it's precancerous. I'm reading all these articles on how people with celiac might never heal. I'm 33, I just want to take all the precautions I can.
Also considering giving up dairy, as I'm fearful that could be the reason behind my weekly diarrhea episodes, or it could be glutening, or just plain healing, I don't know....Is it normal to get diarrhea weekly if I'm only about a month into eating gluten-free?
thanks in advance!
