Bow down to the robo-proletariat!
Radically refashioning a host of reactionary fashions, La Pocha Nostra Live Art Laboratory puts all borders up for grabs. The international performance art troupe returns to San Francisco Sat/30 for the US premiere of La Pocha Nostra's latest creation, Corpo Insurrecto 3.0: The Robo-Proletariat.
A performance project by Guillermo Gómez-Peña, Roberto Sifuentes, and Erica Mott (with LPN associates Brittany Chavez, Rico Martin, Marcos Nájera, Esther Baker Tarpaga, and Allison Wyper), Corpo Insurrecto 3.0: The Robo-Proletariat asks the time-old question: What might you discover at the intersection of "an aging deviant shaman, a Neo-Aztec priest making romantic religious tableaux with a goat, a flamenco drag king, and an Oil Spill Madonna"?
Audience members are invited to help figure this one out, in corporeal dialogue with the performers, in what LPN calls a "wonderfully clumsy but efficient form of radical democratic practice." The piece will also be an exactingly strange multidisciplinary exploration of the forms ideology and power take on and through the body. LPN's exuberant Chicano cyborg/cyberpunk sensibilities brilliantly limn the boundary lines defining the (secretly amorphous) "truths" and "identities" of masscult's virtual reality show — those hipster beards concealing the voracious colonial maw of capitalist society.
In related news: In coming back from Mexico City to home-base San Francisco, LPN's artistic director — artist/intellectual and border-crosser extraordinaire, Gómez-Peña — returns too from the border town of illness, from whence he is steadily extricating himself and about which he has written powerfully and eloquently here.

Eclipse is awesome for writing java programs but today I find that it's awesome to trick new coders like me. @_@
I write a snippet as following,
public static void main(String[] args) {
for(int i=0;i<3;i++){
System.out.println("i = " + i);
then I add a breakpoint at the line of "System.out.print....", click "Debug" button, eclipse goes to the "Debug" perspective and the line of breakpoint is highlighted, then I move the cursor over variable "i", its value is "0" as expected.
And then, I select the "i++" and click "Inspect"(or press "Ctrl+Shift+I") once, I move the cursor over variable "i", its value changed to "1". I repeat "Inspect" again, the value of i changed to "2"......(its value will add by 1 every time I clicked the "Inspect")!!
Why does this happend!? I ONLY want to watch the value of "i" for debug propuse, DO NOT want to really change its value until I step into next statement. I think that "Inspect", as well as "Display" are only for viewing the variable/expression, they should not impact the value, but in this case, it doesn't work as I expect to.
Could anyone tell me what went wrong?

ABSTRACT: The aim of our study was to compare the secretion of amylin, as well as glucose, insulin and C-peptide at baseline and in response to glucagon stimulation in 26 lean women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and in 19 age- and BMI-matched pregnant women with normal glucose tolerance (NGT). Intravenous 1-mg glucagon stimulation test was performed 6 weeks after delivery. Fasting and stimulated glucose levels were significantly higher in GDM patients than in subjects with NGT ( p<0.01 at 0 and 6 min; glucose area under the curve (AUC), 604.8+/-41.8 mg/6 min vs. 572.4+/-52.4 mg/6 min, p<0.05). Insulin AUC was also markedly higher in GDM subjects than in healthy controls (373.9+/-144.2 micro IU/6 min vs. 283.7+/-139.1 micro IU/6 min, p<0.05). There was no difference in fasting C-peptide levels between the groups studied, but stimulated concentrations, as well as C-peptide AUC were significantly higher in patients with GDM ( p<0.01 at 1 min and p<0.005 at 6 min; AUC, 27.4+/-11.3 pmol/6 min vs. 18.4+/-6.9 pmol/6 min, p<0.01). Amylin levels were higher in GDM group in comparison to healthy subjects ( p<0.005 at 1 and 6 min; amylin AUC, 113.3+/-51.2 pg/6 min vs. 72.5+/-15.7 pg/6 min; p=0.14), but in contrast to the other hormones, did not rise in response to glucagon injection. In conclusion, our results provide evidence that in patients with GDM in the post-partum period, the levels of amylin, as well as the secretion of insulin and C-peptide remain elevated, when compared to women with NTG. Further investigations are needed to clarify the significance of this elevation as a predictive factor for the development of late maternal type 2 diabetes.
Article: Postpartum maternal plasma leptin levels and their relationship to gestational diabetes mellitus[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Leptin is a protein hormone mainly produced by the adipocytes. Apart from its autocrine role within the placenta in humans, plasma circulating leptin contributes to the endocrine function. Leptin levels may serve as an index of metabolic and energy balance in pregnancy. Recent reports have shown a positive correlation between leptin concentrations and plasma levels of glycated haemoglobin (HbA(1c)) in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). The aim of the present study was to evaluate leptin levels after delivery in GDM and normal glucose tolerance (NGT) women. Plasma leptin concentration and insulin, c-peptide and glycated haemoglobin were measured in both. NGT women and in patients with a history of GDM in all patients total LDL - and HDL cholesterol concentrations were estimated. We also calculated the anthropometric parameters of the mother and birth weight in both groups. The plasma leptin concentration after delivery was not different in patients with GDM in comparison with the NGT individuals. We concluded that in patients with GDM and normal BM1 the postpartum leptin level was not different in comparison with the NGT patients.

ABSTRACT: Amylin (Islet Amyloid Pancreatic Polypeptide - IAPP) is a hormone cosecreted with insulin by pancreatic beta cells in a pulsatile pattern. Recent reports point to its essential part in glucose homeostasis. Postpartum evaluation of IAPP release in Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) patients was performed. Our data were compared to insulin and peptide-C secretion patterns. We were not able to demonstrate a dynamic increase of IAPP in response to glucagon stimuli. However, related to GDM, puerperal IAPP levels were significantly higher than in normal controls. Lack of postpartum amylin response to glucagon stimulation might be interpreted as a primary result of previously reported increases in circulatory levels of IAPP during pregnancy complicated by GDM. Post partum elevated IAPP may be a useful marker to identify patients with high risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Article: [Strategy in gestational diabetes].[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: This paper reviews current literature on strategic policy in gestational diabetes (GDM). Emphasis is placed on early identification of carbohydrate intolerance. Definitive guidelines related to screening procedures, diagnostic criteria, glucose monitoring with threshold for insulin therapy in GDM were briefly described. Pregnancy termination and delivery management have been discussed. The importance of postpartum follow-up is pointed out. Special attention is paid to the association with increased antenatal risk of subsequent diabetes and consequently raised perinatal morbidity and/or mortality. For appropriate health-care a cooperation between patients, obstetricians and diabetologists is suggested.
Article: Lipid Peroxidation, Antioxidant Defence and Acid-Base Status in Cord Blood at Birth: The Influence of Diabetes[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Pregnancy complicated by poor control of diabetes is associated with a higher risk of embryopathies, spontaneous abortions and perinatal mortality. A number of authors suggest an involvement of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in diabetic pregnancy. Determining lipid peroxidation products (LP), scavenging enzyme activities and the umbilical cord blood's acid-base balance may contribute to an adequate diagnosis of the neonate at birth. Nevertheless, such measurements seem to have limited value in practical clinical routine. The present study evaluates LP, antioxidant defence and acid-base status related to diabetic pregnancy. Twenty-eight women with type 1 diabetes (PGDM), 19 with gestational diabetes (GDM) and 13 control cases were investigated. An additional control group consisted of 15 healthy patients with negative diabetic history; all women underwent vaginal delivery. Immediately after delivery cord blood samples and placental tissue were collected for malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione (GSH) determination. Additionally, pH, pCO2, pO2 and base excess were measured in both vessels and compared to identify and exclude double venous samples. MDA levels in both cord blood and placental homogenates were significantly higher in both pregestational and gestational diabetic groups, but SOD activity was significantly diminished. Cord blood GSH was markedly elevated in PGDM and GDM. We have also shown significant differences in acid-base parameters in infants of PGDM group. Statistical analysis was performed using the Mann-Whitney U-test. These findings indicate an excessive oxidative stress in pregnancy complicated by diabetes mellitus. Evaluating LP products and scavenging enzyme activities may be valuable, sensitive indexes of fetal/neonatal threat in diabetic pregnancy in humans. Since oxidative stress is an important pathway for fetal injury, we believe that obtaining adequate measurements at the time of birth would contribute to clarifying the fetal/neonatal status in a medical and legal context and might be of value in altering therapy in newborn infants.
Article: Evaluation of lipid peroxidation and acid-base status in cord blood of newborns after diabetes in pregnancy[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The purpose of our study was to evaluate lipid peroxidation products and scavenging enzyme activity in placenta and cord blood as well as the estimation of acid-base status and blood gases. Seventy five pregnant patients and their newborns were investigated. Twenty eight had pre-gestational diabetes mellitus (PGDM) and 19 gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). The following parameters were measured: malondialdehyde (MDA) concentrations, glutathione (GSH) levels, the activity of CuZn dismutase (SOD) (Bioxytech, France). Base excess, pO2, pCO2 and pH were measured in arterial and venous samples. Statistical analysis was performed using Mann-Whitney U test. MDA levels and GSH content increased significantly, while SOD activities declined in diabetic group. Newborns of PDGM mothers had essentially diminished pH and rised both, pCO2 and base deficit. There were no any significant differences in parameters of acid-base balance in newborns of patients with GDM as compared with healthy patients. Our results suggest, that in diabetic patients the fetuses are exposed to increased oxidative stress. The evaluation of antioxidant defence and lipid peroxidation, apart from routine measurement of acid-base balance, might serve as a useful marker of fetal distress in diabetic patients.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to evaluate lipid peroxidation and scavenging enzyme activity in streptozotocin-induced diabetes, and then to establish whether moderate doses of nonenzymatic antioxidant vitamin E play a role in the antioxidant defence system in diabetic pregnant rats and their offspring. The study group consisted of 30 normal female Wistar rats, which were given a single dose of streptozotocin (40 mg/kg) and were mated 7 days later. Subsequently, the diabetic animals were divided into two matched groups: the first supplemented with vitamin E (30 mg/100 g chow), and the other fed with a standard diet lacking vitamin E. Controls consisted of 15 pregnant rats. On the first day after delivery, the rats were decapitated and homogenates of maternal liver and uterus as well as neonatal lungs and liver were prepared. Then the following parameters were measured: malondialdehyde (MDA) concentrations in the homogenates and blood serum, glutathione (GSH) levels, the activity of CuZn-superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx), and glycaemia. The neonates of diabetic rats were smaller than the healthy ones and serum glucose concentration was markedly higher in the diabetic animals. MDA levels were significantly increased, whereas GSH, SOD and GPx were markedly diminished in the diabetic adult rats and their offspring in comparison to the control group. In the animals supplemented with alpha-tocopherol, MDA concentrations were significantly lower, GSH content and SOD activities were markedly elevated most tissues studied, whereas GPx remained unchanged. We conclude that, by monitoring the activity of selected scavenging enzymes, information on ongoing biological oxidative stress and thereby on the fetus/neonate status may be obtained. Our results suggest that diabetic pregnant rats and their neonates are exposed to an increased oxidative stress and that vitamin E supplementation may reduce its detrimental effects.

ABSTRACT: Preterm delivery is still a major cause of infant morbidity and mortality. Premature infants develop numerous complications including respiratory distress syndrome, intraventricular hemorrhage, patent ductus arteriosus, necrotising enterocolitis, etc. Respiratory distress syndrome is the leading problem in perinatology. The incidence of RDS accounts for 70% of all infants delivered before 30 week's gestation and about 20% neonates born between 32-37 week of pregnancy. Our paper presents current opinions and is a critical review of relevant literature on antenatal treatment before anticipated preterm deliveries. Recently performed meta-analysis prove that glucocorticoid therapy is effective in reducing aforementioned pathologies of prematurity. After brief account on effects of several hormones on fetal pulmonary maturity some beneficial interactions for enhanced fetal maturity are pointed out. Glucocorticoid mechanism of action in target cells and its biochemical implications are reviewed. The use of antenatal corticoids for fetal maturation and possible adverse maternal effects follow. Finally both short-term and long-term benefits of ANS are discussed. Thus there are convincing data to support the use of ANS in fetal pulmonary maturation. The current findings suggest that the improvement of respiratory outcome may depend on enhanced expression of phospholipids and proteins of the surfactant system and enzymes of antioxidant systems. We believe that use of antenatal corticosteroids for fetal maturation results in improvement of neonatal outcome and yields substantial savings in health care costs.

ABSTRACT: The use of perinatal steroid therapy, first introduced in 1972 is effective in precocious maturation of human lungs. Antenatal corticosteroid therapy results in reduction of fetal mortality, respiratory distress syndrome, intraventricular hemorrhage in preterm babies. These benefits extend to a broad range of gestational age. They comprise the interval between 24 and 34 weeks of human pregnancy and are not limited by the infant's gender or race. The beneficial effects of corticosteroids are the best pronounced after more than 24 hours from the beginning of the treatment. Noteworthy is that therapy less than 24 hours of duration may also improve outcomes. In the presence of premature rupture of membranes, or better with intact membranes, antenatal corticosteroids reduce frequency of RDS, IVH and finally mortality and morbidity. Review of meta-analyses based on randomized trials supports general option that premature infants whose mothers received corticosteroids before delivery are less likely to develop RDS and its complications. Recent data showed that benefits derived from ANS are additive to those of surfactant therapy, rendering the latter more effective. Followup of children up to 12 years of age indicate that ANS do not impair physical growth or psychomotor development. Short-term adverse effects including maternal infection, maternal pulmonary edema were not clearly demonstrated. Pulmonary edema has not been reported when ANS were used alone (i.e. not in combination with betamimetic tocolytics). No long-term unwanted effects on maternal adrenal function have been observed. There is no serious maternal risk resulting from immunosuppressive effect of corticosteroid therapy on maternal immune system. Although glucocorticoid therapy is likely to provoke insulin resistance, and thereby deterioration in diabetic control, and potentially causes cortisol resistance in the fetal lung, the results of scarce randomized trials are not conclusive. In any rate strict control of maternal diabetes mellitus reduces incidence of RDS. Current available data are not indicative of higher risk of fetal mortality in association with maternal hypertensive disease and ANS. In conclusion, most randomized trials of ANS has provided a positive evidence of efficacy and safety of this highly cost effective therapy in most common clinical situations. However, further trials and more precise estimates are justified on ANS treatment specifically related to blood glucose control and evidence concerning the promotion of fetal lung maturity in babies of women with diabetes mellitus. Although benefits of the corticosteroid therapy are beyond any doubts, more experience is needed to assess the effect of ANS on maternal and/or fetal infection in presence of premature rupture of membranes. And finally, further assessments are required on antenatal corticosteroids with dose regimens in patients with multifetal gestation, more common after wide use of techniques of the assisted human reproduction.

ABSTRACT: The aim of our study was to analyse the effect of chronic hyperglycaemia on lipid peroxidation and scavenging enzyme activity in pregnant animals and their offspring supplemented and not supplemented with vitamin E - a natural antioxidant. Thirty pregnant female Wistar rats were used in our experiments. Diabetes was induced on day 7 of pregnancy using a single does of streptozotocin (40 mg/kg). Diabetic animals were divided into two equal groups: vitamin E supplemented and those fed with standard diet. Our controls consisted of 15 healthy rats. On day 1 after delivery homogenates of maternal liver and uterus as well as neonatal lungs and liver were prepared. Then the following parameters were measured: malondialdehyde (MDA) concentrations in the homogenates and blood serum, glutathione (GSH) levels, the activity of CuZn superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) (Bioxytech, France). Statistical analysis was performed using Mann-Withney U test. The neonates of diabetic rats were smaller than those from healthy rats and serum glucose concentration was markedly higher in diabetic animals, both in mothers and neonates. MDA levels increased significantly, whereas GSH content and SOD as well as GPx activities were markedly diminished in diabetic pregnant rats and their offspring in comparison with the control group. In animals supplemented with tocopherol, MDA concentrations declined significantly, GSH contents and SOD activities were markedly elevated in almost all types of tissues studied, whereas glutathione peroxidase remained suppressed. Our results suggest that diabetic pregnant rats and their neonates are exposed to oxidative stress (OS), but vitamin E supplementation could in part reduce the imbalance between uncontrolled reactive oxygen species generation and scavenging enzyme activity, and may potentially serve as a useful prophylactic factor against OS development:

ABSTRACT: Interdisciplinary team work and recommendations of diabetologist and obstetrician is the condition of success of antenatal care and consequently perinatal outcome in pregnancy complicated by diabetes. Careful insight into the metabolic, haemodynamic and vascular disturbances is the basic of contemporary surveillance in diabetic pregnancy. The authors emphasise that a diabetic pregnant woman must not only pay attention to adequate nutrition and balanced exercise, but also be aware of and cope with characteristic, momentary swings in glycemia in order to overcome them by appropriate insulin therapy. Continuous supervision for several other complications associated with diabetic pregnancy, viz. hypertension, retinopathy, thyroid dysfunction, nephropathy and the threat of in utero foetal death is justified. Briefly, rigorous measures to sustain normoglycemia and normal blood pressure, examination of the retina, thyroid and renal functions as well as foetal status evaluation are paramount in appropriate management of major common diabetic complications in pregnancy.

ABSTRACT: This paper is a review of recent reports on autoimmune aspects of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). In a subgroup of GDM patients distinct phenotypic and genotypic features could be distinguished. Islet autoantibodies with variable frequency are present in samples of sera taken from women with GDM. Beta-cell destruction may follow different time course patterns. For this reasons GDM patients may develop variable forms of autoimmune DM. We believe that women who experienced autoimmune GDM are at risk of type l DM and simultaneously, they are candidates for possible immunomodulatory preventive therapy in the future.

Lace update!
- Familiarity:I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Fit:True to size
- Size Bought: 41
It was finally time to replace my last version of the Scarpa Crux after wearing out the soles (which was the only problem, these things are so bomber!).
I am excited to see they have updated the laces vs the last shoe which had round laces. These laces are less round, and slightly thinner. So far, I am not having the same problem with the laces coming untied.
The fit is great, thought they feel slightly looser than my last pair, even after the last ones broke in, and I feel like my foot sits "deeper" within the shoe. Not a problem though, I would rather feel secure than feeling like my heel will pop out every step. These are still pretty new, but loving them as much as my last pair so far.
Solid lightweight shoe
- Familiarity:I've put it through the wringer
- Fit:True to size
- Size Bought: 37.5
I bought the women's Crux Canvas shoes seven months ago and they are the only close-toed shoe I want to wear.
Pros: excellent traction on rock of all kind including slippery sandstone, super lightweight yet sturdy, solid toe box to protect your piggies, fun colors to choose from!, fairly true to size, which means I can only wear them with a thin sock (no thick woolies)
Cons: they wear out FAST - I've heard this complaint over and over, and my seams are definitely starting to blow already, the tongue issue is truly annoying and it will reliably slide to the outside within minutes, try to get the flat laces as I find the round laces do not stay tied
Overall, I find these shoes perfect for light bouldering, approach, day hikes, even lighter weight backpacks (though I still reach for my boots during a longer, heavier trip), and they are stylish enough to wear around civilization without being too dirtbaggy. Just don't expect them to last a long time.
Great designs and fit
- Familiarity:I returned this product before using it
- Fit:True to size
Scarpa is doing a great job with fit and style on their approach shoes. I was deciding between these and the Scarpa Crux Canvas Shoe - Women's and ultimately went with the Canvas version, but these are a great option as well.

- Size Bought: 37.5
I love Scarpa 100%. I have the Kailash GTX book in size 38 and the T2 Eco telemark boots in mondo 24. I first bought these in 38 and they were too big so I returned and got them in 37.5 and they fit perfectly. The first hike I did get some major blisters on my left foot (usually my left foot is a little bigger than my right foot) but after my feet adjusted I no longer get blisters. I love love love he hard toe as I am heavy footed and tent to stub my toes and the nice hard toe is great for easier hikes. I use these for summer hikes around the north cascades. They are not water proof by any means which I found out this weekend. But I'm going to add some nikwax leather/waterproofing to see how that helps. I also roll my ankles often but I found even with the lower ankle support I still didn't haven't had any issues with slipping or not having enough support.
True fact about the tough toe basket! I'm a toe-stubber as well and these always protect me!

I'm hooked
- Familiarity:I've put it through the wringer
First pair of Scarpas, and I love the fit. I have had them for about a year now.
I tried on both this leather version and the canvas version, and kept these. VERY happy with the decision. The leather was already more comfortable from the get-go and has only gotten better and more comfortable with time.
As an outdoor photographer, I find myself scrambling into odd places, which is why I purchased these shoes, but they have also proven to be a great every day shoe, and especially great for longs days of travel and running from opposite ends of airports.
As another comparison, I also have the Five Ten Guide Tennie and while I prefer the looks of the Five Ten, I MUCH prefer the Scarpas overall. This could be part personal preference and foot shape mind you, but I find the Scarpas more comfortable after long hours on my feet, and they have a much more solid heel cup and hold on my foot. The Five Tens feel shallow and as if my heel will walk out of them.
I do have one small complaint about the Scarpas, in that the tongue does not stay centered or in place, but my overall love for these shoes, their fit, and performance has so far trumped the minor issue with the tongue. Perhaps they will try to fix that in later versions.
For some fit comparison, my foot is slightly wider than average, and I prefer low arch support. On average I wear a 9.5 US and in these I wear a 41.0
Amazing shoes!
This shoes are very confortable. The quality of the materials seems very good. Colors are very nice
Stellar shoes - used on Mex volcanoes!
These approach shoes kicked ass! I used them for ten days straight walking around Mexico City markets or on the summit of Ixtaccíhuatl volcano at 17,160 ft. Held up great and comfortable for my narrow feet.
great sticky shoes
- Familiarity:I've put it through the wringer
- Fit:True to size
shoes have a lot of traction so leaping over boulders is so much easier. Also brought these shoes to Nepal and trekked a bit in them. NO blisters and good support
well worn
full leather upper, with sticky toe rub - great for whatever your approaching.
Handles Rocky Terrain!
Like a boss...
Scarpa Crux Shoe - Women's
tacky rocks
- Familiarity:I've put it through the wringer
these are a great approach shoe that performs well. The super-tacky soles don't disappoint on rock and scrabble. The environment that was not suited for this shoe is on snow/ice - as these soles apparently become equivalent your slickest dress shoe sole - advise to not wearing these if you plan to wear outside in SLC valley this winter....having said that though, they are rock specific and perform excellently in that environment only.
Love these shoes!
shoes have a lot of traction so leaping over boulders is so much easier.
great shoe

I love everything about these shoes except that the ankle is cut a little high on the outside edge.
Awesome Shoes
- Familiarity:I've used it several times
I 'm usually somewhere between a 6 1/2 or 7 in shoes. I went with the 7 in these so I can wear them with thicker socks as the weather becomes cooler. I wore these shoes for almost two weeks straight during a hiking/climbing trip and they worked wonderfully. The traction on the bottom is amazing; you can practically walk down a vertical wall without slipping! They're great for just bouldering around as well. The toe box is stiff, which is great, because I tend to bump my toes pretty often when I hike. These don't really stretch and they definitely aren't water proof (I didn't expect them to be), but all in all, these are a fantastic shoe.
Approach THIS!
Ordered these on an impulsive whim.
Was upset at first, because the toe box was very uncomfortable, and rubbed against the top of my foot.
A few wears later, and these are some of my favorite shoes!
They broke in nicely after about 3 days of use, and offer excellent support. The heavy-duty sole provides stellar traction for us clumsy gals. I've used these in wet/wild conditions and didn't have any slippage, which is pretty unusual for me, as I'm not the most surefooted creature. Overall very pleased with this purchase. Construction appears solid, and hope to have these for many years to come.
I just used these on a backpacking/day hike to climb to an 11,000 foot peak. We were scrambling along a knife edge ridge, sometimes snow-covered. I was thrilled with the performance and tackiness of this shoe. My partner was slip-sliding all over the place in his hiking shoes, and I was hopping about like a baby mountain goat. These things REALLY stick. Still stoked on this awesome shoe!
I recently purchased the Scarpa Crux and LOVE them for day hikes and as approach shoes! I'm curious how they would handle on a 3-4 day backpacking trip? Has anyone used them for backpacking? I'm small (4'11
Both my partner and I have done multiple 3-5 day backpacks with these shoes and they hold up really well. The rubber is extra grippy on slippery rock and gravel, and they are so light-weight that they won't wear your legs out more than necessary. My partner uses them without the insole because he gets blisters otherwise, but this simple move has solved his problem.

How is the width on these compared to the La Sportiva Boulder X or the Five Ten Guide Tennie?
I have the Scarpa Crux in a 41 and the Five Ten Guide Tennie in a 9.5. I would say the two are comparable in width.
The big difference for me is in the heel cup. The Five Ten is much shorter/shallower. Heel feels more secure in the Scarpa Crux.
How is the sizing on these? I am told they...
How is the sizing on these? I am told they run a size large?
I found these to be true to size - i wear a size 8, and bought the size 8. they fit perfect with a thin hiking sock. However, if you prefer a thicker (winter-like) sock, you might consider sizing up
I'm looking for a shoe to use canyoneering...
I'm looking for a shoe to use canyoneering but also for other hikes as well. Do you think these will be ruined by walking in knee deep water?
Probably. If I were you, I would just walk around with them on land, but for water take them off and go barefoot. And those "waterproof" shoes tend to stink after they've been in water for more than a few seconds.
Hi Tay,
I think getting these shoes wet will definitely change the nature of the upper material (suede). I've found when leather gets wet it typically gets very stiff and the shoe becomes pretty uncomfortable.
For canyoneering I recommend the Five Ten Canyoneers or Savants. Both have Five Ten Stealth rubber soles that stick better than any other approach shoe I've worn, and stick well on wet rock. I particularly like the Savants because the upper is a more ventilated mesh that's light and dries quickly.
Good luck finding a good shoe for canyons!

Hoping to make a quick find to fill the date on the 366 grid. I looked long enough to 'earn' a DNF and not just a note. I see that others found it a few days after my visit. Not the first time I have not found a cache that others find quickly. I will probably try again.

Anybody else thought of any? I've thought of quite a few, and I would like to know how good they are. Here are a few of mine.
Birth of Dark Krypto
*This would be a 24 minute episode if it were real. >_>
Krypto has his usual encounter with Mechanikat, and Krypto is expecting to be exposed to kryptonite. However, instead Mechanikat exposes Krypto to red kryptonite, hoping for a really nasty effect. He gets his wish, but instead of it damaging Krypto in any way, it creates a dark clone of Krypto. The clone says he is the evil side of Krypto, and he is stronger, smarter, and overall better than Krypto in every way possible. He also has one purpose only, to defeat Krypto, which he does in about 15 seconds. Mechanikat offers a partnership, but Dark Krypto refuses and Mechanikat tries exposing him to kryptonite. Dark Krypto explains that it will not affect him because he was created from kryptonite and defeats Mechanikat. He knows he only 24 hours before he disappears, so he tells Krypto that since he already defeated him, he'll do something worse. He'll take the thing he cares about most, in other words Kevin. While Dark Krypto takes his leave, Krypto goes to the Dog Stars for help. Streaky spies the evil Krypto and asks him what's going on. Dark Krypto gets rid of Streaky and Kevin walks out. Dark Krypto uses a little eye power thing that makes Kevin think Dark Krypto is his friend and the real one his enemy. He then goes to help him create a plan that will destroy the entire city.
-(commercial break)
When Krypto and the Dog Stars show up at Kevin's house, Streaky asks Krypto why he attacked him. Krypto explains what happened and they go searching for the clone and Kevin. Meanwhile, they have set up a bomb that will go off in 12 hours and 1 second, right after Dark Krypto disappears. After spending hours of searching for them and finding others who could help them (such as Ace and Drooly), Streaky discovers the whereabouts of them and they all go to stop him. The arrive and have only 1 hour to stop him before the bomb goes off. They all fight Dark Krypto which eventually leads them into the city where everyone can see them. After Dark Krypto defeats everybody but Krypto and Streaky, he is almost completely out of energy. When Krypto gets ready to destroy him, Kevin steps in the way. Time is running out as they have only 5 minutes. Krypto knows he can't hurt Kevin and tries to snap him out of it. After many heart-warming memories, Kevin snaps out of it. Dark Krypto says it is too late, but Ace defused the bomb exactly one second before. Dark Krypto begins to disappear and says he will be back one day. Meanwhile, Keving hugs Krypto, and Kevin's mom learns about Superdog's true identity.
The Dog Show
Kevin's class has volunteered to enter one dog from member of the classroom in a dog show that every class is entering. Unfortunately, nobody has a dog. Andrea points out Kevin has one and Kevin is forced to enter Krypto for the entire class's sake. Kevin tells Krypto about it, and they are concerned about how they can pull it off without giving away Krypto's secret. They enter the show and manage to stay only a few points ahead without showing any signs of superpowers. Unfortunately, a huge earthquake unexpectedly happens and it's Superdog to the rescue. Krypto manages to be super and save everyone without giving away his secret. However, Andrea isn't so convinced that Kevin isn't hiding something.
The Super Secret
When Andrea gets saved once again by Superdog and Supercat, she rushes home to tell Streaky about it. She notices Streaky isn't around and figures he's wandering around again. She looks out her window and sees Supercat land in her yard. She runs out the door only to discover Streaky is there. She ponders for a second and accuses Streaky of being Supercat. Streaky gives a shoulder shrug and Andrea picks Streaky up. She tosses him over the fence into Kevin's yard at the kiddie pool. Streaky accidently flies to avoid it and Andrea is surprised to see that it's true. She confronts Kevin, who is walking Krypto, the next day and figures that since Streaky is Supercat, Krypto must be Superdog. Kevin says it's not possible, but Andrea knows otherwise. After spending many attempts all day trying to prove it, danger occurs and she notices the change. Kevin comes clean and Andrea promises to keep it a secret if she can have a communicator like Kevin's. Krypto seeks out Superman to make her one.
Snooky's Betrayal
This episode would start off with Krypto being exposed to kryptonite by Mechanikat. Surprisingly, Snooky comes to his rescue and is called a traitor. After they get away, Mechanikat laughs about his plan is coming together. Krypto thanks Snooky, but doesn't trust him. The Dog Stars show up to help, but discover the shocking truth. Snooky says he's changed his ways, but the Dog Stars don't trust him either. Krypto volunteers to keep an eye on him and Snooky stays with Kevin and Krypto for a few days. While he's there, Snooky remembers the plan, but questions about it after having so much fun with them. Three days later, Snooky tells Krypto about a secret lair Mechanikat has on Earth and says he'll show him the way there. On the way, a support beam from a construction site falls and Krypto saves Snooky from being hit, Krypto notices the cable was cut.. Snooky can't believe his eyes and regrets trapping him at the lair. Mechanikat laughs how his plan worked, and tells Snooky to fire a ray at Krypto that will finish Krypto off. However, he can't go through with it after being saved. Mechanikat tells him that he cut the cable to make it fall to make sure Krypto truly trusted him. Snooky is shocked to hear that Mechanikat might've killed him. Snooky is pushed out of the way and Mechanikat gets ready to finsih Krypto off. Snooky gets rid of the kryptonite and says that nobody will harm Superdog. Krypto destroys the machine and he and Snooky escape. Krypto tells the Dog Stars about what Snooky did and Snooky is offered to stay with them. Snooky ignores the offer and says he'll live as a stray on Earth until he finds a true home. He does promise though, to help whenever needed.

ABSTRACT: Objective: There is considerable interest in using bumetanide, a chloride importer Na-K-Cl cotransporter antagonist, for treatment of neurological diseases, such as epilepsy or ischemic and traumatic brain injury, that may involve deranged cellular chloride homeostasis. However, bumetanide is heavily bound to plasma proteins (~98%) and highly ionized at physiological pH, so that it only poorly penetrates into the brain, and chronic treatment with bumetanide is compromised by its potent diuretic effect. Methods: To overcome these problems, we designed lipophilic and uncharged prodrugs of bumetanide that should penetrate the blood-brain barrier more easily than the parent drug and are converted into bumetanide in the brain. The feasibility of this strategy was evaluated in mice and rats. Results: Analysis of bumetanide levels in plasma and brain showed that administration of 2 ester prodrugs of bumetanide, the pivaloyloxymethyl (BUM1) and N,N-dimethylaminoethylester (BUM5), resulted in significantly higher brain levels of bumetanide than administration of the parent drug. BUM5, but not BUM1, was less diuretic than bumetanide, so that BUM5 was further evaluated in chronic models of epilepsy in mice and rats. In the pilocarpine model in mice, BUM5, but not bumetanide, counteracted the alteration in seizure threshold during the latent period. In the kindling model in rats, BUM5 was more efficacious than bumetanide in potentiating the anticonvulsant effect of phenobarbital. Interpretation: Our data demonstrate that the goal of designing bumetanide prodrugs that specifically target the brain is feasible and that such drugs may resolve the problems associated with using bumetanide for treatment of neurological disorders.
Article: Synthesis, biological evaluation and 3D-QSAR studies of new chalcone derivatives as inhibitors of human P-glycoprotein[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is an ATP-dependent multidrug resistance efflux transporter that plays an important role in anticancer drug resistance and in pharmacokinetics of medicines. Despite a large number of structurally and functionally diverse compounds, also flavonoids and chalcones have been reported as inhibitors of P-gp. The latter share some similarity with the well studied class of propafenones, but do not contain a basic nitrogen atom. Furthermore, due to their rigidity, they are suitable candidates for 3D-QSAR studies. In this study, a set of 22 new chalcone derivatives were synthesized and evaluated in a daunomycin efflux inhibition assay using the CCRF.CEM.VCR1000 cell line. The compound 10 showed the highest activity (IC50=42nM), which is one order of magnitude higher than the activity for an equilipohillic propafenone analogue. 2D- and 3D-QSAR studies indicate the importance of H-bond acceptors, methoxy groups, hydrophobic groups as well as the number of rotatable bonds as pharmacophoric features influencing P-gp inhibitory activity.
Conference Paper: The effect of bumetanide and its lipophilic prodrug BUM 5 on the anticonvulsant potential of the GABAmimetic drug phenobarbital in the maximal electroshock seizure threshold test in epileptic mice.
Article: Exploration of natural compounds as sources of new bifunctional scaffolds targeting cholinesterases and beta amyloid aggregation: The case of chelerythrine[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The presented project started by screening a library consisting of natural and natural based compounds for their acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) inhibitory activity. Active compounds were chemically clustered into groups and further tested on the human cholinesterases isoforms. The aim of the presented study was to identify compounds that could be used as leads to target two key mechanisms associated with the AD's pathogenesis simultaneously: cholinergic depletion and beta amyloid (Aβ) aggregation. Berberin, palmatine and chelerythrine, chemically clustered in the so-called isoquinoline group, showed promising cholinesterase inhibitory activity and were therefore further investigated. Moreover, the compounds demonstrated moderate to good inhibition of Aβ aggregation as well as the ability to disaggregate already preformed Aβ aggregates in an experimental set-up using HFIP as promotor of Aβ aggregates. Analysis of the kinetic mechanism of the AChE inhibition revealed chelerythrine as a mixed inhibitor. Using molecular docking studies, it was further proven that chelerythrine binds on both the catalytic site and the peripheral anionic site (PAS) of the AChE. In view of this, we went on to investigate its effect on inhibiting Aβ aggregation stimulated by AChE. Chelerythrine showed inhibition of fibril formation in the same range as propidium iodide. This approach enabled for the first time to identify a cholinesterase inhibitor of natural origin-chelerythrine-acting on AChE and BChE with a dual ability to inhibit Aβ aggregation as well as to disaggregate preformed Aβ aggregates. This compound could be an excellent starting point paving the way to develop more successful anti-AD drugs.
Article: Karlsson, D. et al. The exploration of thienothiazines as selective butyrylcholinesterase inhibitors. Eur. J. Pharm. Sci. 47, 190-205[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The role of butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) in the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD) has recently become more crucial. In the AD brain, selective BChE inhibitors have been demonstrated to have a beneficial effect in vivo, probably by recovering cholinergic activity and/or by restoring AChE:BChE activity ratios to the levels observed in the healthy brain. Thienothiazines are compounds sharing some structural features with phenothiazines, which are known to be potent BChE inhibitors. Thus, in this contribution 45 thienothiazines were investigated for their BChE inhibitory activity. Six of them were proven to be potent and selective inhibitors of equine BChE's hydrolase activity. Structure-activity relationships were laid out, and a tentative pharmacophore model for BChE inhibitors of the thienothiazine type was proposed. The most active compound, 3f, displayed a mixed type of inhibition and was also active against the human BChE (huBChE) with an IC(50) huBChE of 0.51 ± 0.07 μM. Computational studies suggested that 3f likely binds to the catalytic site and nearby to the peripheral site of the huBChE in an extended form. In addition, the chemical space occupied by the active thienothiazines, as opposed to phenothiazines and other representative chemical classes of BChE inhibitors, was explored with the aid of ChemGPS-NP, and the relevant chemical space regions were identified. This study shows for the first time that thienothiazines represent a new group of BChE inhibitors that can be used as molecular probes for studying the role of BChE in the brain or for developing newer drug leads for AD therapy.
Article: Identification and characterization of diarylimidazoles as hybrid inhibitors of butyrylcholinesterase and amyloid beta fibril formation[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In this contribution, a chemical collection of aromatic compounds was screened for inhibition on butyrylcholinesterase (BChE)'s hydrolase activity using Ellman's reaction. A set of diarylimidazoles was identified as highly selective inhibitors of BChE hydrolase activity and amyloid β (Aβ) fibril formation. New derivatives were synthesized resulting in several additional hits, from which the most active was 6c, 4-(3-ethylthiophenyl)-2-(3-thienyl)-1H-imidazole, an uncompetitive inhibitor of BChE hydrolase activity (IC₅₀ BChE=0.10 μM; K(i)=0.073 ± 0.011 μM) acting also on Aβ fibril formation (IC₅₀=5.8 μM). With the aid of structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies, chemical motifs influencing the BChE inhibitory activity of these imidazoles were proposed. These bifunctional inhibitors represent good tools in basic studies of BChE and/or promising lead molecules for AD therapy.
Article: A journey from benzanilides to dithiobenzanilides: Synthesis of selective spasmolytic compounds[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A series of dithiobenzanilide derivatives was synthesized and each compound was evaluated for its ability to reduce KCl-induced contractions of smooth muscle preparations of the guinea pig. Starting from a recent publication describing benzanilide derivatives as antispasmodic agents, structure-activity guided synthesis was performed to obtain compounds with improved spasmolytic activity. First, compounds with two amide bonds were designed and second, both amide oxygens were replaced by two sp² sulfur atoms resulting in dithiobenzanilide derivatives. The most potent antispasmodic dithiobenzanilide 19 showed improved activity with an IC₅₀ value of 0.4 μM. Moreover, the study also demonstrated that these active compounds were able to antagonize the effect of spasmogens like acetylcholine and phenylephrine and that the activity is not mediated by activation of ATP-dependent potassium channels (K(ATP)-channels) or inhibition of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS).
Article: Synthesis, spasmolytic activity and structure-activity relationship study of a series of polypharmacological thiobenzanilides[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Recently we presented a series of benzanilide derivatives with a selective spasmolytic effect on terminal ileum preparations of the guinea pig. In this report we demonstrate a further development of these compounds. The exchange of the amide oxygen against a sulfur atom resulted in an up to 325 fold increase of the antispasmodic activity of the thiobenzanilide (IC(50) of 0.1 μM) compared to its benzanilide derivative. Considering their mode of action the compounds interacted with several molecular targets, suggesting that we identified a chemical identity able to modulate multiple targets simultaneously. Furthermore, based on this data set, we present a structure-activity relationship study supporting the important role of the sulfur atom.
Article: Pros and cons of using resazurin staining for quantification of viable Staphylococcus aureus biofilms in a screening assay[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Staining of Staphylococcus aureus biofilms with 20 microM resazurin during 20 min was shown to provide a good screening assay in 96-well micro titer plates. However, data quality was found to be dependent on the staining duration and biofilm concentration. Also, the inadequacy of using resazurin calibration curves with planktonic cells to estimate S. aureus biofilm concentrations was demonstrated.

ABSTRACT: The following study describes the synthesis of new benzanilide derivatives and their pharmacological investigation on smooth muscle preparations of guinea pigs. All compounds were synthesized in good yields and showed a spasmolytic activity without significant effect on vascular smooth muscles and heart muscle preparations. Moreover, further pharmacological investigations as well as in silico studies were performed to elucidate the mechanism of action. Compound 3 showed the most potent spasmolytic activity with an IC(50) of 3.25microM.

ABSTRACT: Resveratrol ((E)-3,4',5-trihydroxy-stilbene), a phytoalexin found in various plants, shows non-selective cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibition. In order to find more selective COX inhibitors a series of bridged stilbene derivatives was synthesized and evaluated for their ability to inhibit both COX-1 and COX-2 in vitro. The compounds showed a high rate of COX-1 inhibition with the most potent compounds exhibiting submicromolar IC(50) values and high selectivity indices. A prediction model for COX-inhibiting activity was also developed using the classical LIE approach resulting in consistent docking data for our molecule sample. Phenyl substituted 1,2-dihydronaphthalene derivatives and 1H-indene derivatives therefore represent a novel class of highly selective COX-1 inhibitors and land promising candidates for in vivo studies.

Officials at city hall want to hire a consultant to conduct a feasibility study for possible re-use of the old Public Safety Building and adjoining parkade.
An administrative report recommends that $275,000 be allocated for the consultant, who will look at downtown market conditions and assess how other civic departments might use the Princess Street property.
Winnipeg Police will be moving into new facilities on Smith Street later this year.
As the Free Press reported in December, it's possible the city will move other civic departments into the PSB and the parkade will be demolished and the property sold.
The parkade was shuttered in August 2012 when found to be structurally unsound.
Police are moving out of the PSB because it was thought at the time it would be cheaper to renovate the old Canada Post facility rather than re-clad the exterior of the PSB. The exterior siding has been secured to the walls to prevent it from falling off.
The PSB property cannot be sold for development. The land was deeded to the city on the condition it be used for civic purposes and if not, then ownership reverts to the descendants of the family who originally donated the property.
The report also recommends that council spend $150,000 to further secure and shore-up both the parkade and the PSB.
The report, which will be presented to the downtown development committee Monday, presents several other options for both parcels of land, including:
- demolishing both structures and using the sites for downtown green space.
- putting the parkade property up for sale, which then would likely be demolished and redeveloped.

Ashley-Mary and Spacky by ThemrockWatch
©2007-2016 Themrock
I remember you once upon a time, looking for feminity. As I can see in your last stuff... now you got it perfectly
you think so? Well i nearly drew only feminine characters the last months. maybe they don´t look feminine in reality but i got what i needed for cartoon females.
This take on the character came out pretty good. Eyes and facial and hand expressions give personality. You did a nice job at making Ashley Mary look like a girl.
my drawn girls don´t look as cute as yours.
Wowzers i love how you did her hair, and her coy little pose XD
Absolutely brilliant.
I am completely digging the way you pulled off those hands on the little ghosty dude.
fantastic. i like how fluffy she looks.
:3 this is so nice.
Lol, this is awesome
Great job ^___^
Great job ^___^
very pretty
I wanted to say something, but I don't know what. Spacky's eye-holes are neat.
really cute
Great expressions!
I love that there is not a single straight line in the entire picture. Lovely
I thought i did one.
Well I guess you would know better than I do I like it a lot, even if there is a straight line
You are so amazing!!! I really love how much fun energy comes across in your work.
ashley-mary? wonder where he came up with that one
sooo cool, I love her expression n_n
Very nice expressions.
Kenne ich (mal wieder) nicht, sehen aber niedlich aus. Doch, gefällt mir.
thats really cute...in its own way <3333

In a companion essay (reprinted below), I discussed the response of some articles in the mainstream press to the claim, made by some defenders of Israel, that Professor Richard Falk should be removed from his current position of UN rapporteur on human rights abuses in the Palestinian Territories — a claim that was reflected in the refusal of Israel on December 14, 2008, to allow him to enter the country. I included in this essay a discussion of an article by reporter Joel Brinkley because, although it was published before Israel's action against Falk 1 , it could be read as a defense of that action.…

From publisher SevenStories.com:
Information tends to flow centripetally, from the margins to the center, and not vice versa, in the same way as sensations travel from our finger tips to our brain and central nervous system. Paul Zarembka's Hidden History of 9-11, doesn't subscribe to any one conspiracy theory, but it argues, persuasively, that familiarity with the fault lines of the official story opens a reader to a fundamental and necessary awareness.…Continue reading

If you want to "speed up" light room, you need to use fast storage (SSD or really fast hard disks), a fast CPU, and as much memory as you are willing to spend money on.
Lightroom 5 does not take advantage of your GPUs features..
Save money by using the "built in" graphics, and spend that money on a really good monitor or something to calibrate the display.-- hide signature --
