The success of Sunday's "Run for Your Life" 5K race has orgainzers confident it will become an annual event.
Sunday was a great day for the "Run for Your Life" 5K race, and organizers are confident that its success has ensured that it will become an annual event.
Dr. Dale Covy, a Dover veterinarian and president of the Dover Rotary Club, said 118 runners and more than 30 walkers participated. The sky remained sunny and temperatures were mild as the race began and ended at Crater Stadium after traversing through the Becker Creek housing development.
The race participants were followed by a 1953 Packard Henney antique hearse, owned and driven by Bob Gibbs of Dover. A symbolic reminder of being healthy, the hearse "came back empty, just like it left. We were very happy with that," Covy said.
All of Sunday's race results will be posted online at: champracing.org.
"We're really proud of Dr. Covy, who at the beginning of his Rotary year said he wanted to make all of us healthier people, and as a result this was my first 5K ever," said Brian Hanner of Geib Funeral Homes, Crematories & Remembrance Centers of Dover and New Philadelphia, one of the race's major sponsors.
Hanner and John Herzig of Toland-Herzig Funeral Homes & Crematory of Dover, New Philadelphia and Strasburg, the race's other major sponsor, had helped arrange for Gibbs to bring the car show-quality hearse.
Hanner said he and Herzig were pleased and honored to have served as flagship sponsors for the event, and to have worked together "to support a project that literally has a little bit of fun with the fact that we're both hearse drivers."
Hanner, 35, who ran the 5K in 28 minutes, 11.5 seconds, wore a shirt featuring a stick cartoon figure being chased by a hearse under the logo: "Run for Your Life."
Covy, a runner, said he regrets not running Sunday, but he plans to participate in Union Hospital's "Run for Home." He said the Rotary event will continue on an annual basis as a training race held two weeks prior to "Run for Home," an event scheduled April 15 in New Philadelphia's Tuscora Park.
Events will include a half-marathon road race; 13.1-mile, three-person team relay race; a five-mile recreational walk; one-mile fun run; and kids' run.
The weekend also will include a health and fitness fair featuring more than a dozen health-related organizations from 2 to 6 p.m. April 14 at the Tuscora Park pavilion. Meanwhile, the Fit Youth Initiative is sponsoring a pasta dinner at the park from 3 to 6 p.m. that same day.

The first category is scientific knowledge -- the kind achieved through testing, weighing and probing. And within its competence, according to Collins, science is supreme. He is, for example, a strong defender of Darwinian evolution, a theory he calls "absolutely incontrovertible." Collins is particularly compelling when talking about the genetic evidence for the common ancestry of all living things -- the precise similarities between our DNA and that of other species, and the precisely located mutations that can only be explained by common origins. Religious texts, in his view, must be interpreted in light of these scientific facts.
But Collins argues that there is a second way of knowing -- a realm of morality and metaphysics that involves not physical proof but probability based on evidence. Some scientists assert that anything beyond the possibility of touching and testing is equally mythological -- from unicorns to God to morality to hope to meaning to love. Collins calls this kind of reductionism a "logical fallacy." By definition, science only yields information about the physical world, which does nothing to prove that the physical world is all there is. As human beings, we still seek to know why things exist andhow we should live. Science is silent on these matters; we need not be. Collins contends that the moral law within us, and the fine- tuning of physical constants in the universe, provides "signposts" (not proofs) that lead toward God. (See Collins' book "The Language of God: A Scientist Presents Evidence for Belief" for his full and informed explanation.)
For Collins, modern science and Christianity are not competing answers to the same question; they are ways of thinking about two very different sets of questions, both of which should be taken seriously.
Collins' appointment says something good about the maturity of modern evangelicalism, which is starting to abandon some of its least productive debates with modernity. Criticisms of evolution, rooted in 19th-century controversies, have done little more than set up religious young people for entirely unnecessary crises of faith as they encounter scientific knowledge. In the running conflict of modern biology and evangelicalism, Collins is a peacemaker.
And Collins' appointment says something good about the maturity of President Obama. This move has invited criticism from the secular left. It is unlikely to appease religious conservatives who assume cynicism from Obama. But this seems to be a case where the president simply picked the best person for the job. In the process, Obama has affirmed something important: that anti-supernaturalism is not a litmus test at the highest levels of science.

Other Side of The Moon: Bunker Bay's Resort Restaurant
This restaurant is located in the Quay west Resort Bunker Bay and is open to the general public. The five star resort has a first class restaurant with beautiful views of the landscape including the ocean.
We had lunch in the main restaurant , choice of 3 menus, the Lunch Menu, Bar Menu or should you desire the Al La Carte Menu. We ordered from the Lunch Menu and were surprised how reasonable the prices were, in fact cheaper than the cafes in Dunsborough and Busselton. I ordered the Steak Sandwich with chips and this was an excellent meal done in the traditional way with fried egg, bacon etc etc. My wife ordered the Ceasar Salad with Chicken which came on 3 skewers, a very large serve and most enjoyable. We had sparkling water with the meal.
The restaurant also has an outdoor area which overlooks the pool. Our meal with small tip came to Aust $52 and was worth every cent.

Equinox Cafe and Restaurant
The Equinox Cafe sits right on the foreshore beside the Busselton Jetty under some heritage fig trees. The cuisine is described as 'evocative modern Australian'. They are open for breakfast, lunch and dinner 7 days a week or you can just stop by for coffee and some of their house-baked cakes.
The Goose: You'd be a Goose to miss it!
Beautiful location right on the beach.
Favorite Dish: We only got the bread and trio of dips, along with some coffees but the menu looked great.
Tides Restaurant and Tavern
The Tides Restaurant sits alongside the Port Geographe Marina and also behind the Marina Villas. If you are a guest at the villas, you can charge your meal and drinks back to your unit.

We had lunch at Cod Rock's and it was really yummy... The fish was great...not too battered and tasted good too! The lady serving at the shop was really nice too which always helps. :)

Ooh, good retort! Anything that another asshole in the white house did before Obama totally excuses him, even if he's wagging a finger at us driving cars while he rides in a fucking airliner.
When did it become OK to be patriotic and yet call the elected leader of this country "that asshole" instead of The President?

AntiVehicle Anti Vehicle YKTTW Discussion
|Anti Vehicle
Vehicles are difficult enemies for infantry units to fight with conventional equipment and tactics, thus the need for Anti Vehicle weapons and abilities. These include:
- Explosives, mainly missile or rocket launchers and Sticky Bombs.
- Caltrops for vehicles with tires
- The 'Straight Arrow' anti-tank missile from the Starfist series, good enough to extinguish mechanized warfare for several hundred years (in-universe).
- Shadowrun has rockets and missiles that are specifically designed to attack ground and air vehicles. In addition to penetrating vehicle armor, they're also designed to not explode if they miss their target.
- Warhammer 40,000: Krak missiles used by the Imperium among many, many others.
- The AT (anti-tank) squads in World in Conflict shared the basic infantry squads' vulnerability but are positively deadly to ground vehicles of any kind. Owing to the game's consistent Tactical Rock-Paper-Scissors balancing, they are completely defenseless against helicopters (while basic infantry isn't).
- The Swarm Launchers, homing AV grenades, Forge Guns, and proximity mines of DUST 514.
- The Lancer class in Valkyria Chronicles is the only infantry unit who can damage tanks without attacking its radiator. In case a Lancer manages to hit a tank's radiator, it usually results in a One-Hit Kill for the tank.
- Empire at War: The Rebels have rocket troopers that do extra damage against vehicles.
- Enemy Territory Quake Wars: Engineers can create anti-vehicular defensive turrets (missile launchers that other classes can designate targets for). They will *only* attack vehicles, allowing enemy soldiers to destroy it if undefended.
- Battlefield 2142: The engineer class can place an anti-vehicular railgun turret for fellow soldiers to use. The railgun takes a short time to recharge between shots, however.
- In some Nintendo Wars games Anti-Tank units can be purchased.
- An anti-tank mine's explosive charge is more powerful than that of an anti-personnel mine and may be a shaped charge designed to penetrate armor. They are designed to detonate when the weight of a vehicle pushes down on them.
- The HESH round (high explosive, squash head) is designed to expressly NOT penetrate tank armor. As conventional steel armour grew thicker and thicker, anti-tank guns to combat it had to get larger and larger. This had a law of diminishing returns - an anti-tank gun needs to be fairly small, light, inobtrusive, easy to hide and easy to extract quickly. WW2 weapons just got too big - the German Pa K 105 or Pa K 88's weighed tons, and the proposed British 32 pounder anti-tank gun was scrapped because of its behemoth size and impracticability. so the HESH round was developed to expressly NOT penetrate armour all the way through, but rather to exploit the thickness of defensive armour plating and turn it into a liability and a deathtrap. HESH rounds are designed with a soft lead head, rather like an oversized bullet, which impacts the external face of armour with such force and impact that it dislodges a large scab on the INSIDE of the vehicle. which thewn ricochets around the inside, white=hot and heavy and jagged, spoiling the day for anything it touches, like soft-skinned humans. And if it hits ready-use ammo or penetrates to a fuel tank... HESH is no largely obselete as modorn composite ceramic armour is designed to defeat it, as are external shielding and reactive panels, but in its day it was a lethal battlefield weapon. And it allowed for far smaller anti-tank guns: Britain's last towed anti-tank weapons, the WOMBAT series, were so small and light they could fit inside the back of a land-rover.
- The Fairchild Republic A-10 "Thunderbolt II", also known as the "Warthog" . It is not going to win any dogfights, but it is built from the ground up to carry the GAU-8/A "Avenger" 30mm Gatling Cannon, several additional hardpoints for bombs and missiles, plus being tough enough to survive Anti-Air fire.

I applied for Italian Citizenship through Marriage over 15 months ago. According to the law, the government has 730 days to grant or deny citizenship.
I am inquiring with my Consulate but receiving no response.
What would you suggest as my next move? Should I contact the Comune di Roma? If so, what should I write (aka translation into Italian).
Thanks to anyone for their help.
Citizenship jure matrimoni - 730 days passed
Over 25 million Italians have emigrated between 1861 and 1960 with a migration boom between 1871 and 1915 when over 13,5 million emigrants left the country for European and overseas destinations.

Using the usual ways to sell and auction our items we decided to take it one step further and open an Ebay Store named Those Lost Treasures and in doing so has has fuled the addiction.
It has been only four months since we opened our Ebay Store and we decided to take it one step further and we opened our own store named Ebay Collectibles which you can visit here http://www.ebaycollectibles.com/

Here is a set of spare parts for one of my Union Pacific's Water Tender kits.
Included is 2 curved ladders, 2 straight ladders, 2 tool boxes and 2 headlights.
They will require cleaning before painting. I recommend washing with warm soapy water then soaking in 'Goo Gone' or similar product for about 24 hours. Then rinsing off with warm water and allowing to dry.

When a young prince is accused of a crime that could embroil him in international scandal, debonair supersleuth Sherlock Holmes comes to his aid, and quickly discovers that behind the incident lurks a criminal mastermind eager to reduce Western civilization to anarchy. Adapted from the hugely popular stage version of Arthur Conan Doyle's stories (by William Gillette), Sherlock Holmes not only provided Barrymore with one of his most prestigious early roles, but also presented the screen debuts of two notable actors: William Powell (The Thin Man) and Roland Young (Topper). Sherlock Holmes was mastered from a 35mm restoration by the George Eastman House Motion Picture Department, and is accompanied by a score by Ben Model, performed on the Miditzer Virtual Theatre Organ. First time ever on blu-ray!!!

Age: 44-55

I don't know if I got a bad pen, but this applied very little product. What actually made it on to my nails did nothing at all for them. Total crap--I want my buck back!
Age: 19-24
Skin: Sensitive, Fair-Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Other, Other
Eyes: Green
Overall, this is a super affordable quick fix for flaky cuticles. All you have to do is uncap and glide along your fingers for a smooth finish. I have to say, I love this. I use it every time I paint my nails to create a smoother appearance overall.
I actually use this to push my cuticles back and it works like a charm. It seems to just dissolve my dry cuticles and allows me to wear the polish of my choosing. This is GREAT to carry in your purse and to use anytime you want a DIY manicure.
Age: 25-29
Skin: Combination, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Other, Other
Eyes: Green
I don't think that the product is particularly "nourishing", as I haven't seen much if any improvement in my cuticles after a year of using it everyday....but I still really love this pen! It makes my cuticles LOOK great, and prevents me from picking at them. A single pen has lasted me well over a year! It's not sticky and it's super easy to apply.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Other, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Black, Other, Other
Eyes: Blue
Wow! I have dry, ragged cuticles and have tried a variety of products in order to help them. This is my favorite so far! It's a convenient pen that is SO easy to use and dispenses just the right amount of product - which includes almond oil, grape seed oil, avocado oil and aloe vera oil in it's ingredients. It absorbs almost instantly, has no scent and is not greasy! I can throw this in my purse and use it anywhere, anytime without taking up any space and without the worry of it leaking. Add to that it's price tag of one dollar, and you've got a winner!
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Fair, Warm
Hair: Red, Wavy, Fine
Eyes: Blue
Yet another ELF gem I stumbled upon. I love this, it's portable, dirt cheap, and contains good ingredients. I wash my hands constantly because of my job and this is a lifesaver. I'm going to order a pallet of this!
Age: 36-43
Skin: Oily, Fair, Cool
Hair: Red, Other, Other
Eyes: Hazel
Love this thing, have one in my purse lug it every where with me.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Other, Other
Eyes: Brown
This product keeps my cuticles hydrated during winter and I'd be lost without it! Extremely easy application and quantity to price can't be beat! I went from having hacked up cuticles to smooth pretty ones in a week just by using this every day. One of my favorites from E.L.F
Age: 19-24
Skin: Dry, Fair-Medium, Warm
Hair: Red, Wavy, Medium
Eyes: Brown
I really like this! It helps my skin and nails stay soft! it is not messy and i can take it with me everywhere! It is only 1.00 which is good but if it was over 1.00 i would still buy it because it is well worth it!
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Acne-prone, Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Black, Relaxed, Medium
Eyes: Brown
Fantastic cuticle treatment.
Every night before I go to bed I put this on my cuticles, and wake up with nourished nails!
it has Natural oils in it to help alleviate the dryness, which is great.
And for 1 dollar? How can you lose?
Age: 30-35
Skin: Combination, Fair, Cool
Hair: Brown, Wavy, Fine
Eyes: Brown
...let me start by saying The Pros:...this is only a dollar, IT DOES "NOT" HAVE " YUCKY MINERAL OIL!!!" yay!!! Cuz, that is what ruins the lacquer and all your hard work will lift off way too soon by it creeping under the lacquer and you will cry! I have ;) lol! The INGREDIENTS ROCK....Almond oil, Grape Seed oil, Vitamin E, Vitamin C, Vitamin A, Panthenol and Aloe Vera Oils. The isodocane makes it feel weightless. All are wonderful stuff for your nails...yay!!! Once again I stress this has "no mineral oil!" yay! This formula ABSORBS very well into cuticles and your nails....so you have NO GREASY HANDS!!YAY!!! The tip is a firm felt pyramid shape that is great for the sides of matrix and for really rubbing/massaging this stuff into the cuticles/nails/under free edge, without you having to use your fingers. You can control the amount used easily...it does not just spew out everywhere. Also, great for purse, as it does not leak. I have had this pen for awhile and it is still not gone! Awesome Pros here people for a dollar!
Now onto the very few and minor Cons: I wish it had Jojoba oil and Rice Bran...Jojoba helps take the oils down under matrix and Rice Bran keeps the moisture...but, as I said above it still absorbs pretty good without it. Now at first the pen tip is not saturated with the oils....so just keep it upside down and there after each use and press firmly.
So ladies and gentlemen, with that being said.... the Pros totally outweigh the cons considerably. So, try this.... its really great once you get the oils onto the tip! Plus it does not ruin your mani! Yay! I will buy this again when I order another haul. But for a DOLLAR it rocks for your purse

April 26, 2012 BY Brendan Dunne / 7
We're back with more looks at the Nike NFL Draft pack, an expansive set of 32 sneakers with one colorway for each time and the proprietary models included getting split up across the various divisions. This time we're taking a look at the so-called 'NASCAR Division', the NFC South, one of the more balanced groups in the league with each of the four teams having clenched at least two division titles since its formation a decade ago. If your team falls among these then the sneaker waiting for you is the Nike Free Trainer 5.0, a model that's already had an NFL brush up once before via the Pro Bowl Pack. Hit the jump with us to take a look at the Atlanta Falcons, Carolina Panthers, New Orleans Saints, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers colorways on the way from Nike US Football set to drop on Sunday, April 29th and let us know if you'll be drafting any pairs for yourself.
Filed under: Collaboration Nike Free Trainer Upcoming Sneakers

no bueno
This is crap why can't they give the NFC south some air max wrights or something these are terrible shoes they look like they are made for women to run in
good thing the Falcons have the diamond turfs and the exact same color scheme as the bulls because these are not worthy, performance wise they probably be the shit though.......
NFC South got shafted lol
The Suckaneers stopped wearing those ugly orange uni's years ago. FAIL
the Falcons colorway looks more like Tampa Bay than the Bucs one does ... -__-
Saints is it!!!!

Nashville Opera retires long-term debt
Nashville Opera officials have announced the Raise Your Glasses capital campaign succeeded in generating the necessary patron support to repay the loan on the Noah Liff Opera Center located in West Nashville.
As a result, the company has retired all long-term debt, a total figure for which the company did not disclose in a release.
Relatedly, fiscal year 2013 income exceeded expenses by more than $119,000.
The opera company, Tennessee's largest, received a boost from strong sales, increased sponsorships and additional production underwriting, the opera said in the release.
Ticket sales for all FY13 productions exceeded projections and led to a 65 percent increase in earned revenue compared to the figure of the previous fiscal year. Of note, the company introduced an audience growth strategy that offered programming, branded as "Opera @," in non-traditional venues, including the Dyer Observatory, Franklin Theatre, Fat Bottom Brewery, and the Boxwood Bistro. Public interest and participation in these events increased 15 percent year over year, according to NO officials.
The NO's studio and executive office complex generated 191 percent more revenue from rental income than it did the previous fiscal year.
This past summer, Nashville Opera became the first opera company to be awarded a National Endowment for the Arts Our Town grant for its upcoming Music City Opera Project, which will be unveiled to the public in mid-2014.
"Nashville Opera is well-positioned for continued growth in both the short and long term," Noah Spiegel (pictured), Nashville Opera's chief operating officer, said in the release. "Last year's results reflect our historic commitment to producing the highest quality operas, educating the next generation of opera patrons, and sound financial management."

PROVIDENCE � As stressful as his team�s semifinal game with Burrillville/North Smithfield was last week, Tiverton/Rogers coach Shane Parker was glad his players had needed to work so hard to pull out the win.
It was the first time this season that his team had truly been tested, and Parker had a feeling it would prove to be a valuable experience heading into the finals.
He was right.
Coventry battled Tiverton/Rogers right to the very end before the Tiger Vikings, led by Player of the Game Liam Leys, emerged with an 8-7 victory in the Division III final of the R.I. Interscholastic League University Orthopedics Boys Lacrosse Championships, on Sunday at Brown�s Stevenson Field.
�It was awesome, funnest game ever,� said Leys, a senior tri-captain with Cole Criollos and Nathan Johanning. �I�ve been waiting for a championship, and it�s finally here.�
�It�s been a long five years,� added Parker, head coach of the Tiverton/Rogers co-op formed in 2011. �We started the first two years with one win and two wins. We�ve gradually been getting better, and we get more and more kids interested as we get better. So it�s a great feeling. I wish it wasn�t as close obviously. A little too much stress. That�s how our semifinal game was, so we definitely earned it.�
Tiverton/Rogers, which finished tied for first with Coventry during the regular season with a 12-1 record, jumped out to a 2-0 lead on goals by Leys and freshman Gregory Johanning.
Although Coventry, which was led by four goals from freshman Lucas Martin, kept it close throughout, the Oakers could never quite catch the Tiger Vikings, who received two goals apiece from Leys, Colin Greenman, Stefan Bebe and the younger Johanning.
�That�s gradually what�s happened for us more and more throughout the year,� Parker said of his team�s balanced scoring attack. �Our last game we had 13 goals � two guys with two, three guys with three � and we�ve been becoming more dangerous as we can spread it out. We started the year with two threats, and then we�ve got some young kids that have grown up and learned the game of lacrosse a little bit. Now we�ve got five or six guys that can score.�
Tiverton/Rogers goalkeeper Sean King made sure those eight goals were enough, finishing with 15 saves.
�He�s also a first-year player,� Parker said of the senior, who he described as �nuts in a good way.� �He�s never even played lacrosse before. It was a week into camp and we really didn�t have anyone playing goalie. He stepped up, and he�s got the mentality for it. There are a lot of kids that were important to this team, but if you took him off this team, I�m not sure where we�d be because he stepped up huge as a goalie.�
TIVERTON/ROGERS (8): Liam Leys 2, Colin Greenman 2, Bebe Stefan 2, Gregory Johanning 2; assists � Cole Criollos 2, Leys 2, Greenman, Stefan 2. COVENTRY (7): Tristan Carlton 2, Joseph Foley, Lucas Martin 4; assists � Carlton, Michael Nolan, Martin.
Halftime � T/R, 6-4. Saves � Sean King, T/R, 15; Ryan Clifford, C, 11.

I said the other day it's the Top Search Terms of 2005 rankngs time of the year and we've already had releases this week from Lycos and AOL. Today it's A9's turn. However, A9 does something different unlike what we usually see elsewhere.. Most often, year-end top search term lists that have rankings divided into various categories (music, film, people). What makes A9 different? They only rank the Top 99 search terms that contain nine letters.
I'm so glad the Paris Hilton contains a space and ten letters. This is one list she's not on. (-: Btw, A9 uses the Google database to power its web engine.
Here's the Top 10 of the The A9 Top 99 of 2005

Dining on boats
197 Views
The canals have been a feature of Dutch life for centuries. Not only do they provide a means of transportation through and between the cities, but they have also been turned into mobile dinner entertainment. Amsterdam, Leiden, and Delft in particular are home to amazing dinner cruises that sail the canals and let you take in the sights over a leisurely meal.
Types of boat dining available
There are several types of dining boats plying the canals of Holland. Like the restaurants on land, the boats cover every international cuisine you're in the mood for:
- Spanish tapas boats, Dutch pancake boats and barbecue boats: these offer a one to two-hour cruise with great meals in their specific category.
- Sing-along boats: here you might become the entertainment. Have dinner and sing-along with traditional Dutch music as you dine happily.
- Romantic dinner cruises: often a bit more expensive than some of the other dining cruises, these can be group cruises or private dinners just for two. Perfect for an evening during a honeymoon.
Wine and dine on the canals
These cruises can be a lovely way to see views of the city from the water and enjoy traditional (or not so traditional) Dutch fare. Be aware that some boats do not take credit cards, so do your research on the boat you choose and board prepared. Again, some dinners on some cruises include drinks while on others they are an extra charge. Combined with a walking tour of city (like Amsterdam) these cruises can be the garnish to a wonderful visit.

Article: Atrogin-1 ubiquitin ligase is upregulated by doxorubicin via p38-MAP kinase in cardiac myocytes[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Doxorubicin (DOX) is one of the most effective anti-neoplastic agents; however, its clinical use is limited by drug-induced cardiomyopathy. The molecular mechanisms responsible for this toxicity remain to be fully addressed. In the present study, we investigated the involvement of atrogin-1, one of the muscle-specific ubiquitin ligases, in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. This method involved intraperitoneal administration of DOX-induced atrogin-1 in the hearts and skeletal muscles of C57BL/6 mice. Consistently, atrogin-1 mRNA was upregulated with DOX treatment in cultured rat neonatal cardiomyocytes. Adenoviral transfer of atrogin-1 induced a reduction in cell size that was ameliorated by the ubiquitin proteasome inhibitor, MG-132. The transduction of constitutively active Akt (caAkt), a serine/threonine protein kinase, inhibited the DOX-mediated induction of atrogin-1. The phosphorylation status of Akt and its downstream target, FOXO, was not affected by DOX. DOX treatment did not activate the atrogin-1 promoter that contains FOXO-binding sites, suggesting that DOX induced atrogin-1 without modulating the Akt/FOXO pathway; importantly, DOX activated p38-mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK). Furthermore, pharmacological inhibition of p38-MAPK, but not JNK, abrogated DOX-mediated induction of atrogin-1. Finally, adenoviral transfer of caAkt inhibited the DOX-induced p38-MAPK activation. DOX induces atrogin-1 through a p38-MAPK-dependent pathway in cardiac myocytes. Constitutive activation of Akt negatively regulates DOX-mediated atrogin-1 induction by inhibiting p38-MAPK activity as a novel mechanism.Cardiovascular Research 08/2008; 79(1):89-96.

ABSTRACT: In the process of cardiac remodeling, connective tissue growth factor (CTGF/CCN2) is secreted from cardiac myocytes. Though CTGF is well known to promote fibroblast proliferation, its pathophysiological effects in cardiac myocytes remain to be elucidated. In this study, we examined the biological effects of CTGF in rat neonatal cardiomyocytes. Cardiac myocytes stimulated with full length CTGF and its C-terminal region peptide showed the increase in cell surface area. Similar to hypertrophic ligands for G-protein coupled receptors, such as endothelin-1, CTGF activated amino acid uptake; however, CTGF-induced hypertrophy is not associated with the increased expression of skeletal actin or BNP, analyzed by Northern-blotting. CTGF treatment activated ERK1/2, p38 MAPK, JNK and Akt. The inhibition of Akt by transducing dominant-negative Akt abrogated CTGF-mediated increase in cell size, while the inhibition of MAP kinases did not affect the cardiac hypertrophy. These findings indicate that CTGF is a novel hypertrophic factor in cardiac myocytes.Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications 06/2008; 370(2):274-8.

Article: Identification of cardiac myocytes as the target of interleukin 11, a cardioprotective cytokine[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Interleukin (IL)-6 family cytokines, which share glycoprotein 130 (gp130) as a signal-transducing receptor component, play important roles in the maintenance of cardiac homeostasis. IL-11, a member of IL-6 family cytokines, is expressed in cardiac myocytes, though it remains to be elucidated how IL-11 functions in the hearts. In the present study, first, we showed that IL-11 administration reduced the ischemia/reperfusion injury in the hearts. IL-11 receptor alpha was expressed in cardiomyocytes. IL-11 treatment rapidly activated signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2 in cardiac myocytes. IL-11 stimulation resulted in the translocation of phosphorylated STAT3 into nuclei. Immunofluorescence microscopic analyses revealed that IL-11 treatment led to the cell elongation, as is the case with other cardiotrophic members of IL-6 family, such as leukemia inhibitory factor. Finally we showed that IL-11 treatment conferred the resistance to cell death induced by hydrogen peroxide, which was abrogated by adenoviral transfer of dominant negative STAT3, but not by the inhibition of ERK1/2 with U0126. These findings indicate that IL-11 mediates cytoprotective signals in cardiomyocytes, proposing that IL-11 has the potential to exhibit cardioprotection as a novel biological function.Cytokine 06/2007; 38(2):107-15.

Article: STAT3 mediates cardioprotection against ischemia/reperfusion injury through metallothionein induction in the heart[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) was reported to be correlated with myocardial protection against ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in ischemic preconditioning. Here, we tested the causality between STAT3 activity and cardioprotection. We also addressed the molecular mechanism for its cardioprotection. Cardiac-specific transgenic mice expressing constitutively active STAT3 (TG) were generated and exposed to I/R injury. TG hearts exhibited infarcts that reduced by 60.3% in size, compared with nontransgenic littermates (NTG). By measuring dichlorofluorescein (DCF) and 8-isoprostane, reactive-oxygen-species (ROS)-induced metabolites, it was revealed that ROS were generated to lesser extent in TG hearts than in NTG in response to I/R stress. In parallel, ROS scavengers, metallothionein1 (MT1), and metallothionein2 (MT2) were markedly up-regulated in TG hearts. Finally, homozygous deletion of the MT1 and MT2 genes abrogated cardioprotective effect of STAT3 against I/R injury with the cancellation of its ROS-scavenging effects. Activation of STAT3 protects myocardium from I/R injury in vivo. STAT3 mediates cardioprotection at least partially through MT1 and 2. STAT3 is a potential therapeutic target for I/R injury.Cardiovascular Research 03/2005; 65(2):428-35. DOI:10.1016/j.cardiores.2004.10.021 · 5.94 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: Cardiomyocyte apoptosis contributes to cell death during myocardial infarction. One of the factors that regulate the degree of apoptosis during ischemia is the amino acid taurine. To study the mechanism underlying the beneficial effect of taurine, we examined the interaction between taurine and mitochondria-mediated apoptosis using a simulated ischemia model with cultured rat neonatal cardiomyocytes sealed in closed flasks. Exposure to medium containing 20 mM taurine reduced the degree of apoptosis following periods of ischemia varying from 24 to 72 h. In the untreated group, simulated ischemia for 24 h led to mitochondrial depolarization accompanied by cytochrome c release. The apoptotic cascade was also activated, as evidenced by the activation of caspase-9 and -3. Taurine treatment had no effect on mitochondrial membrane potential and cytochrome c release; however, it inhibited ischemia-induced cleavage of caspase-9 and -3. Taurine loading also suppressed the formation of the Apaf-1/caspase-9 apoptosome and the interaction of caspase-9 with Apaf-1. These findings demonstrate that taurine effectively prevents myocardial ischemia-induced apoptosis by inhibiting the assembly of the Apaf-1/caspase-9 apoptosome.AJP Cell Physiology 11/2004; 287(4):C949-53.

Album Rating: 4.0dethalbum II is better. this needs more melody with catch
Album Rating: 3.0 | Sound OffI understand that. But Dethklok is still Dethklok so 5/5
I reckon this band, being associated with Cartoon Network and all, discourages trve metal fans from giving them a chance. This album isn't half bad though. Contains some pretty fun and solid tunes.
Digging: Grey Heaven Fall - Black Wisdom
Album Rating: 4.5brah Cartoon Network and Adult Swim are two different entities all on their own.
Album Rating: 4.0Hm, I actually prefer this to Dethalbum II. Dethalbum II was great and all, but this seems more focused and more of an album that I would purchase even if I wasn't such a big fan of the show.
brah Cartoon Network and Adult Swim are two different entities all on their own.
isn't adult swim a time slot on cartoon network? aren't they both owned by Turner?
Album Rating: 3.5Yeah they are adult swim is late night Cartoon Network for the most part
Album Rating: 4.5isn't adult swim a time slot on cartoon network? aren't they both owned by Turner?
even if it was, I would still consider it different entities because the content differs from each other drastically.
yeah but osmark still has a point. dethklok is associated with cartoon network and thus trve metal fans might shun them as a result.
Album Rating: 3.5First time I heard dethklok was guitar hero 2
Album Rating: 4.5it's on adult swim, not cartoon network. It's kind of hard to justify that it has connections with cartoon network considering the content and all. If South Park went on Adult Swim and then you and say that it has connections with cartoon network is silly. Like I said they're different entities all on their own... they have different guide lines and all.
Edit: regardless if they're both owned by the same company.
you realize that in order to watch adult swim, you have to turn the channel to cartoon network, right?
Album Rating: 4.5yeah, but they're not the same thing. It's like saying Manhattan is the same as the Bronx, just because they're both in New York City doesn't mean they're the same thing.
Actually it's like saying that Manhattan is the same as New York
Eh who cares, the entirety of Adult Swim is complete ass, anyway
yeah fictional don't think you're grasping the concept quite yet, but i agree with crymson. never got into adult swim or cartoon network
Album Rating: 4.0Emyay- Adult Swim is great for the most part, I definitely check it out if you have that acquired taste of humor. I grew up on Cartoon Network so I dig it when it's on now, but if you didn't grow up with it it will probably be hard to get into since it's geared towards kids. I have no idea how Cartoon Network is now though, when I was watching it in the 90s/early 2000s it was awesome though.
Album Rating: 4.0Oh when I said I dig watching it now, I mean whenever a friend of mine puts on a show I used to watch on Netflix or something. Don't know shit about any of the newer shows.
yeah, i mean now that you mention it, i've enjoyed some adult swim in the past. its never really been MY thing, but friends would put it on and i'd enjoy it.
stuff like home movies, aqua teen, metalocalypse, and a little robot chicken. i just never actively seek it out or anything.
Album Rating: 4.0Those are all some of the best shows on adult swim man, you've been watching the right stuff. It's a weird sense of humor so if it doesn't click don't worry that just means your more normal than me lol
nah i like them, l just don't watch that much tv in general i guess. i've always been a huge south park guy.

I'm building up a bike with single-eyelet rear dropouts.
I'm using VO fenders with the draw-bolt type stay attachments. I'm C&V nutty, and I love how the draw bolts look (even if setting them up makes me want to commit regicide) and would like to use something like it in the final build if possible.
When it came time to attach the rack, I suddenly had a problem. The threaded part of the draw bolt is just long enough securely to attach the fenders. There's no room to add the rack stays in there.
And, in any case, the VO bolt seems a little lightweight for holding up the rack when there is actual cargo involved.
Does anyone have suggestions for sources of sturdy hardware of this type that might be up to the task (or alternate ideas)?
Thanks for any help you can provide!

Edelman focuses on being a receiver
FOXBOROUGH -- Instead of preparing for the NFL combine this offseason, Julian Edelman was focused on being a receiver.
Edelman said he hopes being able to dedicate all of his energy to improving as a receiver will pay off in his second season.
Edelman, who was a quarterback at Kent State, said he watched film of Wes Welker, Randy Moss, and Jabar Gaffney in the offseason and took away something different from each player.
"Just because I'm a different receiver than Randy doesn't mean I can't take anything from him," Edelman said. "There's little two steps and little things here and there that can contribute to any receiver."
Edelman took time out after the morning practice today to help promote a contest sponsored by RE/MAX of New England and the Patriots. If the Patriots break their single-season record of 75 touchdowns, a fan will win $500,000 toward the purchase of a house. For more information, visit http://www.remax-newengland.com.

H.G. Wells wanted his epitaph to be 'God damn you all, I told you so'. But how accurate were his predictions of industrial warfare and global conflict, especially as his descriptions of an aerial bombing of New York in War in the Air has been compared to the terrorist attacks of 9/11? Did the late Victorians really 'discover the future' or did the 1990s simply recycle the 1890s? At the aftermath of 2012, this book is 'looking backward' and identifies startling connections between the apocalyptic fantasies of the last two centuries' ends and traces intriguing links between Nietzsche and chaos theory, Dracula and The X-Files, the Borg Queen and H. Rider Haggard's Ayesha, among others.

"The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball."
Terence Mann, "Field of Dreams"
I t has been 25 years since actor James Earl Jones uttered those words in the beloved baseball film "Field of Dreams." A quarter-century after it hit theaters, many of the movie's most famous lines are still recited by fans as if it were released last week.
It is a process that plays out with a half-dozen other baseball-themed movies released between 1984 and 1993, an era that some consider a golden age for the genre.
"The word is quality when you look at this particular period," said Rob Edelman, a film historian and University of Albany film history professor who wrote the book "Great Baseball Films: From Right Off the Bat to A League of Their Own."
"When you look at films like 'Field of Dreams' and 'Bull Durham,' which I believe are at the top of the list, 'Field of Dreams' captures the poetry of baseball. 'Bull Durham,' by Ron Shelton, captures the mentality of minor league players, career minor league players. He does a brilliant job. Now, this doesn't mean there were no other quality baseball films made. There are other eras that have good groupings of baseball films. However, this is the golden age of baseball films because of the quality of the films throughout."
The nine-year span produced perhaps seven of the best baseball movies ever made: "The Natural" was released in 1984, followed by "Bull Durham" and "Eight Men Out" in 1988, "Major League" and "Field of Dreams" in 1989, "A League of Their Own" in 1992 and "The Sandlot" in 1993.
But after "The Sandlot" came mostly forgettable clunkers — anyone remember Matt LeBlanc's "Ed," co-starring a chimpanzee? — and box-office bombs.
The last few years have seen a mini-renaissance of sorts with the success of "Moneyball" and "42." And last month, "Million Dollar Arm" opened to mostly positive reviews, if not huge box-office numbers.
"Traditionally, baseball movies have not done well at the box office," said David Filipi, the director of film and video at the Wexner Center for the Arts in Columbus, Ohio. "There are a number of exceptions, though, but they haven't done well historically.
"Also, if you say a movie is about baseball, right there you're eliminating half of your audience because, for the most part, women are not going to be interested in a baseball movie and a bunch of men that aren't interested. You're immediately wiping out chunks of your audience, so you have to add elements that would appeal to wider audiences."
It is those added elements that likely can be credited for the success of many of the films during the golden age of baseball movies.
David Mickey Evans, who wrote and directed "The Sandlot," is quick to point out that he doesn't consider his film a baseball movie.
"It's about friendship, helping out the guy that doesn't fit in like you do or have the skills like you do," Evans said. "It doesn't matter who you are, where you come from, whether you're black, white, yellow, brown, red, polka-dotted, whatever. You watched that movie and you either were one of those kids, wanted to be one of those kids or were involved with kids that were like those kids. It resonated."
It's an approach that screenwriters and directors have employed throughout the genre's history, particularly during the period of 1984-1993.
"If you look at 'Bull Durham,' what's it about?" Filipi said. "It's about this love story. It's about this older guy that's moving towards the end of his career. It could have been in business, baseball or any career path. He has to break in this new guy, which, again, can apply in any situation, and they're both in love with this same woman."
Mardik Martin, who co-wrote the boxing classic "Raging Bull" and is a professor at USC's School of Cinematic Arts, echoed the sentiment.
"Writers ask the questions: What's the story here? What's this character doing? What's the conflict here?" Martin said.
"Sure, this was a great story and the character just so happened to be a boxer, but Marty (Scorsese) didn't think of it as a boxing movie. Never. Boxing was secondary to the story in this movie, which you see in other sports movies."
The script, of course, balances the story with elements of the respective sport, birthing such memorable scenes as the mound discussion in "Bull Durham" ("Candlesticks always make a nice gift") and Ricky Vaughn's horrendous pitching debut in "Major League" ("Juuust a bit outside").
Fans can recall those scenes and recite lines like "There's no crying in baseball" (from "A League of Their Own") and "If you build it, he will come" (from "Field of Dreams") verbatim, according to Cathleen Summers, a former TriStar Pictures executive vice president who oversaw "The Natural" and was an executive producer on "The Sandlot."
Despite the success of the seven films produced during the golden age of baseball movies, the ensuing 20-plus years show how difficult it can be to get one made.
"There is no chance of another wave like that, because the business has changed dramatically since I made mine and others made theirs," Shelton, who wrote and directed "Bull Durham," told ESPN.com, noting the increased importance of foreign markets in recent years.
Despite the recent success of "Moneyball" and "42," there also have been whiffs, such as the 2012 movie "Trouble with the Curve" starring Clint Eastwood.
"It's a business," Edelman said. "Movies are just like cars. Movies are just like toilet paper. Films are product.
"The bottom line of the Hollywood perspective is: Are they making money? The success of films leads to other films. Based on this film's profits or that film's profits, studios will say, 'I'll let you make that film.' "
