A "Free" Day
View NELLIEH1's Sparkpage
View All Blog Entries from NELLIEH1
Monday, March 18, 2013
It happens about three times a year at the same location, same time of day. We get together with an old college buddy or two of DH's. Today was it... luncheon at Olive Garden at 11:30 and lasting until about 2:30. My husband likes to try out the new things on the menu. So he and his friend of sixty-three years had the dinner-for-two special: appetizer of calamari and bruschetta, seafood lazagna, and of course the breadsticks and endless salad. I settled for the usual zuppe e insalate: minestrone (which I limited to one bowl) and again endless garden fresh salad (I had three servings) and two garlic bread sticks. Even though I didn't join them with the yummy looking appetizer, my caloric intake was way above the usual! Then we topped it off with dolcini: one for each of us...amareto tiramisu, strawberry and white chocolate and dark chocolate mousse complete with the staff singing happy birthday to our friend.
Yup, I'll "pay for" this "free" day,* but it was worth sharing again over a good Italian meal. This is the thing...a life time of knowing that the way to get good conversation going is to sit around the table together, right?...Right! At home DH and I can do that over carefully crafted menus that meet the caloric limits as well as provide all the healthy nutrition we're supposed to be having now. Our friend does the same kind of thing usually. But put us together and the old patterns take over for awhile. Well, not the beer drinking or even wine imbibing anymore. Not the huge plates of pasta with sauces, meats and cheeses. Not the uncounted cookies and brownies either. This was a restrained "remember the good old college times".
I'm the "outsider" as I didn't meet the college "buds" until 1965. But forty-six years does qualify me to join in and listen to the stories. And contribute a few of my own, too.
* Good thing I did tap practice this morning and had dance class tonight!
How about you? Any new tales to tell of good food discoveries or braggings about fitness?

What did you think of Corrie's CGI tram?
9 comments:
All well and good until it jumped a bit as it left the picture! Had to rewind it to see if I was seeing things.

*transport geek hat* It's the wrong colour - the old look trams were white with blue fronts, while the new ones are grey with yellow fronts. This one's white with a yellow front! It's nice to see it turn up though.
Also, what's that hole in the viaduct wall just above the corner shop? Is that FORESHADOWING?
- 28 September 2010 at 08:57
Sorry, but very silly...
- 28 September 2010 at 09:13
It was definitely juddering as it traversed the picture - which really made it stand out as fake. I think it's probably that piece of the recording had been treated differently to the rest of the "natural" picture into which it has been overlaid. Probably because it was interlaced vieo while the rest wasn't. Any tech boffs want to expain it more accurately?
- 28 September 2010 at 09:51
It looked real enough to me although I don't tend to notice these things.
- 28 September 2010 at 11:01
The whole picture should have been left as interlaced HD video, but it wasn't. It was taken into a computer and the shot added... rather badly.... and then somehow the interlacing was dropped, leaving an unprocessed progressive scan image.
I could have done better on my own PC... it was only 10 seconds.
One of the problems of CGI/effects shots is that it's far easier to cover up problems on a progressive image than an interlaced one. CGI on interlaced is a challenge, and I do wonder if they'll decide to shoot the live episode in progressive as a result *(which would look very weird)

Derivation of new human pluripotent stem cells using small molecules
Pluripotent stem cells have the potential to treat a variety of human diseases, including diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, Parkinson's diseases and Alzheimer's diseases, in cell replacement therapies. Human embryos are the main sources for producing human pluripotent stem cells that are genetically unmodified so far. Alternative methods for producing pluripotent stem cells include somatic cell nuclear transfer or therapeutic cloning, which needs unfertilized or newly fertilized eggs, and has been experiencing both ethical and technical difficulties. Recent progress in reprogramming by retroviral transduction of a cocktail of four transcription factors offers a solution to these problems because no embryos or eggs are needed in this system. However, the use of retroviral transduction represents a serious hurdle to the use of these induced pluripotent stem cells for therapeutic application, because retroviral transduction can cause activation of cancer-inducing genes and are therefore risky.
The goal of this research is to create new pluripotent stem cells that are genetically unmodified by inducing endogenous pluripotency regulators using small molecules. Screening for small molecules that induce endogenous pluripotency factors to replace retroviral delivery of reprogramming factors will allow safer production of customized patient-specific stem cells from patient's own somatic cells and open up new avenues into stem cell therapies. It will make the dream of stem cell-based therapies come true in the foreseeable future.
The establishment of pluripotent stem cell lines opened a new era in biomedical research. Human pluripotent stem cells provide great hope to be used in cell replacement therapy for a variety of human diseases. The derivation and propagation of new lines of human pluripotent stem cells from somatic sources using small molecules will allow production of patient- and disease- specific stem cells in a safe and efficient manner. These virus-free pluripotent stem cells will have important research and clinical application for understanding, diagonosing and treating serious injury and diseases that Californians may suffer. Californians will therefore benefit tremendously from the outcome of the proposed research. In addition, the development of new methods to derive genetically unmodified human pluripotent stem cells that do not require the use of either human embryos or eggs will reduce the ethical concerns of Californians for stem cell research and will stimulate other stem cell-related research in California. This research will undoubtedly bring enormous benefits for California.

Connecting peptide insulin, insulin C-peptide, proinsulin C-peptide
This blood test looks at how well your body's makes insulin. It's used to help diagnose blood sugar disorders.
Your body needs the hormone insulin to move sugar through your bloodstream to your cells for energy. A healthy pancreas makes equal amounts of insulin and the protein C-peptide. So by measuring your C-peptide, your health care provider can also find out a lot about your insulin level.
Measuring C-peptide can show whether you have type 1 or type 2 diabetes. In type 1 diabetes, your body doesn't make any insulin. In type 2 diabetes, either your body doesn't make enough insulin or your cells ignore it.
If you have diabetes, the C-peptide test can show how well your treatment is working.
The C-peptide test may also be done to find the cause of low blood sugar or to monitor the activity of tumors that secrete insulin.
Your health care provider also might order:
Blood glucose test to measure the amount of glucose (sugar) in your blood
Glucagon test to measure levels of another hormone secreted by the pancreas. (Glucagon can increase blood sugar.)
Glycosylated hemoglobin blood test. This is an indirect measure of the state of your blood glucose levels.
Insulin assay. This is a test that directly measures your insulin levels.
Many things may affect your lab test results. These include the method each lab uses to do the test. Even if your test results are different from the normal value, you may not have a problem. To learn what the results mean for you, talk with your health care provider.
Test results are given in nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL). Normal results are within the range of 0.5 to 2.0 ng/mL.
A high level of C-peptide could mean a number of conditions. These include a kidney problem or an insulinoma, a tumor of the insulin-making cells in the pancreas. It could also mean you need to adjust the amount of insulin you take.
A level of C-peptide that's lower than normal means that your body isn't making enough insulin or that your pancreas isn't working properly.
The test requires a blood sample, which is drawn through a needle from a vein in your arm. It's done after fasting for 8 to 10 hours, but may be done again after you've eaten.
Taking a blood sample with a needle carries risks that include bleeding, infection, bruising, or feeling dizzy. When the needle pricks your arm, you may feel a slight stinging sensation or pain. Afterward, the site may be slightly sore.
Taking insulin for your diabetes can raise your C-peptide levels. Your C-peptide level can also be affected if your kidneys aren't working properly.
You will probably need fast for 8 to 10 hours before you have this test. Ask your health care provider for specific instructions. Be sure your provider knows about all medicines, herbs, vitamins, and supplements you are taking. This includes medicines that don't need a prescription and any illicit drugs you may use.
Bayhealth is Southern Delaware's healthcare leader with hospitals in Dover and in Milford. Bayhealth provides a wide range of medical services, including cardiovascular, cancer, orthopaedics and rehabilitation, pediatrics, respiratory care, sleep care, surgical weight loss and women's services.

I started DJing when I was 13 in 1996, at the same time I picked up the guitar and piano, but whilst I still love the band/acoustic stuff, I fell in love with DJing from clubbing and hearing some of the best DJs!! Since then I've played in numerous clubs and radio stations around Dublin. At the moment I'm DJing on Phever.ie 93.2FM and live streaming on http://phever.ie/index.html & http://phever.ie/phevertv.html my
radio station with my show 'Dig Deeper' in Dublin on Wednesday 8pm to 10pm...I started DJing many moons ago listening and buying tonnes of vinyl records, which were mostly progressive trance and progressive house (the proper kind from back in the day) and lugging them around parties and gigs. Nowadays I play mostly Deep & Tech House, but I'd play anything that sounds good depending on the mood and the crowd! I've always loved digging through countless tracks just to find the right tracks for my sets and there's nothing better then playing to a crowd!
Press play to try again.
You can get it here.

John Elway says he had no problem with Jay Cutler calling out a teammate last week. But it's not how the Broncos' legendary quarterback would have done it. He would have kept his conversation with Brandon Marshall behind closed doors.
"I was surprised to hear it, actually," Elway said Wednesday during his Colorado Crush Arena Football League news conference. "If that's what Jay feels like he needs to comment on, then he needs to do that. I mean, personally, I would have done it to (Marshall). To me, as teammates — even though I've tried to settle things in the press, looking back over the years, it's not been the right way to do it."
Upon being told what Elway said, Cutler said he was surprised his comments last week about Marshall had gotten so much attention.
"If I would have known it was going to be such a big story and get picked up by the national media like it did, I probably would have chosen my words a little more carefully," Cutler said.
"I think it's going to be a good thing for me and I think it's going to be a good thing for Brandon. I wouldn't have said what I did if I didn't care about him. I want to see him succeed. I think he's one of the most talented players in the league, and I'd hate to see him throw that all away."
Marshall is Cutler's favorite receiver, as evidenced by his team-high 102 catches last season.
Marshall and Cutler also have become friends off the field. In February, Cutler, Marshall and tight end Tony Scheffler worked out together with renowned trainer Chip Smith in Atlanta.
But on March 22, Marshall engaged in horseplay with his brother at their vacation home in Orlando, Fla. A wrestling match ended with Marshall slipping and putting his right arm into an entertainment center. He suffered multiple lacerations to his muscles, tendons, a nerve, vein and artery and underwent emergency surgery.
"People have to understand about Brandon Marshall and I. We go out to dinner together, we went to Atlanta together," Cutler said. "I've talked to Brandon about this many times. It's not like this is the first time he heard this from me. Everything I said in that press conference I've said to Brandon before. I don't think he was shocked to hear what I said. Maybe he was a little embarrassed, but hopefully it will help him."
Marshall has been involved in other off-field incidents, including a disturbance outside a downtown Denver nightclub the night teammate Darrent Williams was killed, a domestic violence charge that was later dropped and a DUI charge that is pending.
Cutler seemed at wit's end last week when he spoke about Marshall's latest incident.
"He's not my favorite person right now," Cutler said. "I support him, but it's always something with him right now and you can't have that. It's disappointing.
Elway was asked if Cutler's public remarks about Marshall were a sign Cutler is ready to become the team's primary leader.
"We'll see. There's talk and there's do," Elway said. "The bottom line is there's talk and there's wins. And there's one thing that talks and that's wins, so we'll see."
Cutler's record with the Broncos is 9-12 since he took over as starter 11 games into the 2006 season.
"John can say what he wants," Cutler said. "I'm not about to disagree with John Elway, but I've said from Day One, we're not the same quarterback on or off the field."

Sunday Jazz Lounge: New Weekly Concert at Twins
Update 1:14 PM:
Rodney Richardson clarifies the schedule a bit: "The Sunday Jazz Lounge will start in March. We will play every Sunday in March and hopefully continue from there." He and Herrera are still finalizing the soloist acts for those opening four weeks, and expect to have it completed by the end of the week.
Original Post:
Trumpeter Joe Herrera and guitarist Rodney Richardson are two of DC's most ridiculously busy jazz musicians, each playing more gigs in more bands than can be reasonably listed here. (Among the many, they're both members of Funk Ark, and form two-thirds of the Kevin Pace Trio.) Not for them, though, Sunday's "day of rest" tradition. Instead, Herrera and Richardson have established a unusual new weekly event at U Street's Twins Jazz that they are calling the Sunday Jazz Lounge.
Sunday nights, for two sets at 8 and 10 PM, Herrera and Richarson will lead a quartet at Twins featuring bassist Eric Harper and drummer Dave McDonald, performing an evening Herrera and Richardson's own compositions as well as, in their words, "not-too-often-played selections from the jazz songbook." This much is a fairly conventional evening at the jazz club. They supplement it, however, with something rarely seen at the clubs, or even in larger jazz venues: an opening act.
And a solo one, at that. "Special guest soloists are featured at the beginning of each Sunday evening performance," says Herrera. "One of a rotating cast of talented local musicians will be invited each week to share their music through their instrument with no backing ensemble. This type of intimate presentation allows the listener to engage the musicians on a more personal level." An interesting proposition, indeed — even in the small world and small venues of the DC jazz scene, true solo performances are hard to come by.
The best part? All of this comes with a price tag of $5. Cheap!
Check back here for updated information on the details and forthcoming schedule for the Sunday Jazz Lounge.

Robert F. Friel
Great. Thanks, Tycho. Thank you all for joining us this afternoon. So I'll just mention, with me today is Andy Wilson, our Chief Financial Officer, so somewhere over here; and Kevin Hrusovsky, who is the CEO of Caliper and has now joined PerkinElmer as the President of our life sciences and technology business.
So today I'd like to do a couple of things. First of all give you an overview of the company, but really focus a little bit more on our strategy. And I know, particularly in meeting with some of the investors over the last day or 2, there's been some discussion around the activity, particularly in 2011 with acquisitions, and it may appear they were putting together a disparate collection of technologies. And I want to really focus today on the rationale and the strategy behind some of the acquisitions we've done, specifically in 2011, and really sort of do that in the context of what we see are tremendous value-creation opportunities within PerkinElmer to really drive and assist our customers in improving world health for the next couple of years.
Before I do that, I do want to remind everyone that to the extent we're using non-GAAP information that you should consult with a reconciliation which we have done on our website, www.perkinelmer.com. And to the extent that I use forward-looking comments, I want you to make sure that you consult with the SEC documents and, of course, the 10-Qs and the 10-Ks.
So as I said, if you look at -- a lot of the moves of the actions that we've taken over 2011, it was a busy year and it was really driven by 3 fundamental themes. So first of all, it's -- our goal is to really put together differentiated solutions based on strong and hopefully intellectually or protected intellectual property that is application driven. Those applications are focused on attractive segments and improving health. And you see there that they fundamentally resolve around 3 areas: diagnostics, research and environmental. And I think one of the things that's somewhat unique to PerkinElmer is we've got great channel and access in emerging markets. And as I'll explain a little while, what we'll see is continued evolution on a hierarchy of medical needs, that we have the ability to take those and drive them into the emerging markets. So developed for the developed markets and then bridging that into the emerging markets, and I'll give you a little bit of perspective on that.
Before I start though in those discussions, I do want to give you a quick overview for some of you that are not as familiar with PerkinElmer. So you can see from the slide, about a $2.1 billion revenue company. You can see fairly geographically dispersed, less, I mean, 50% of our revenue in North America. And then actually, evenly split between Western Europe and the emerging markets. And you can see on the right side of the slide, our split between instruments, reagents, consumables and service and software, giving us about 60% of our revenue related to recurring revenue. And then the other point there on the bottom I want to make is a lot of intellectual property, 3,300 patents. And actually 2012 will represent the 75th year for PerkinElmer where we've been developing excellent technology, really using inspired innovation to assist our customers.
And with regard to that technology, I really want to focus on where that is directed and I thought would be interesting look. This is a study that was done by IBM Global Business Services that really focused on fundamental changes that are occurring in the healthcare system, and it really used sort of the Maslow's hierarchy to sort of lay out really some of the motivation and really value perceptions of stakeholders in healthcare, and to a large extent this is governing healthcare needs. And you can see there on the bottom, it starts with sort of rudimentary environmental needs, things like clean water and air, then moves up to the sort of the basic healthcare needs of preventive screening, immunization, medical necessities. So this thing, this will be sort of acute care and treatment, and then of course health enhancements and then ultimately sort of driving toward that optimal or personalized health.
And interestingly enough is when you think about the resources required, there's less resources required on sort of the bottom half of the triangle and the resources increase as you go up the triangle. And so I think PerkinElmer's got an opportunity to play almost across this entire triangle here. So if you look at our addressable markets, so with the exception of the health enhancements, we play within the research area, really focused at the medical necessities there. So about a $5 billion addressable market for us and you'll see most of our end markets grow in sort of the mid to high single digits. However, I will point out that we are targeting specific areas, specific subsections of those markets where we think the growth is considerably higher. We'll get into them on the discussion. You can see the diagnostic markets in the environmental health markets. And then we also have a service and software offerings that really cut across all 3 markets, about a $6 billion addressable market also growing in the 5% to 7% range.

text: Home Culture PepsiCo Drops Lil Wayne The rapper's endorsement deal comes to an end, reportedly because of his Emmett Till lyric. By: Jozen Cummings Posted: May 4 2013 9:51 AM 0 Lil Wayne (Michael Loccisano/Getty Images) (The Root) -- It's been a tough week for PepsiCo. Earlier this week, they had to pull an ad created by Odd Future member Tyler, The Creator, due to complaints that its content was racist and insensitive toward women. Today, according to the Associated Press, the company dropped Lil Wayne for a controversial lyric in which he compares sex with a woman to the lynching of Emmett Till. Even though the lyrics were featured on an unofficial release of the song "Karate Chop" by rapper Future; even though the song was leaked in February and was immediately taken down, never to be released officially; even though the Till family already wrote an open letter to Lil Wayne expressing their dissatisfaction with the lyric; and even though Lil Wayne apologized for the lyric earlier this week, PepsiCo still thought they should disassociate themselves with Lil Wayne. PepsiCo said in a statement late Friday that Wayne's "offensive reference to a revered civil rights icon does not reflect the values of our brand." It declined to provide any further comment on any current promotions it might have in the market with Wayne. But the story also says according to Lil Wayne's publicist, Sarah Cunningham, the split was due to creative differences. "That's all I can tell you at this time," she said to the Associated Press. This, too, seems like a highly plausible reason since the fire over the lyrics was put out long before even Lil Wayne's apology. But PepsiCo, still reeling from the Mountain Dew-Tyler, The Creator, debacle could be using Lil Wayne as a scapegoat to save face. Read more at Yahoo. Like The Root on Facebook. Follow us on Twitter.

- $55.8 billion was spent unnecessarily on higher-priced medications when more affordable, clinically equivalent alternatives were available.
- $93.1 billion could have been saved if patients would have used the most cost-effective and clinically appropriate pharmacies, including home delivery and specialty. This savings includes $33.5 billion in lower drug costs, as well as $59.6 billion in avoided medical costs attributed to the higher adherence rates associated with home delivery and specialty pharmacies.
- An additional $269.4 billion was spent on avoidable medical and pharmacy expenses as a result of patients not remaining adherent to their medication treatments. This total does not include the $59.6 billion in adherence savings directly associated with better pharmacy choices.
Poorest U.S. States Rank Among Most Wasteful In Unnecessary Medication-Related Costs
ORLANDO, Fla., April 23, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The United States wasted $418 billion in 2012 based on bad medication-related decisions, and the impact was most deeply felt in those states that could least afford it, according to new research from Express Scripts (NASDAQ: ESRX). (Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130423/AQ99646-INFO)(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20080827/EXPRESSSCRIPTSLOGO) While these costly decisions impact the entire nation, the analysis shows that they have a disproportionate effect on the poorest states. Mississippi, which has the lowest median household income in the country, had the most wasteful spending, totaling $1,622.76 per resident. The other low-income states that top the list in unnecessary pharmacy-related costs include Louisiana, Arkansas, Alabama, Kentucky, Tennessee, South Carolina, New Mexico and Oklahoma. "Our nation pays a huge price for bad medication-related decisions, and it is clear that the price is even more costly for those at the lowest end of the economic spectrum," said Steve Miller, MD, chief medical officer at Express Scripts. "The good news is that our country can save billions of dollars for patients, employers and the government – and achieve healthier outcomes – simply by driving better decisions within the pharmacy benefit." Waste was defined as extra medication-related spending that provided no additional clinical benefit. This includes the use of high-priced prescription drugs and pharmacies when clinically equivalent or superior alternatives existed, as well as unnecessary medical expenses that could have been avoided by patients adhering to their medication therapies. The research, presented this week at the Express Scripts Outcomes Symposium in Orlando, Florida, revealed the following:

Mylan on Tuesday confirmed that it — along with several subsidiaries — has been sued by Baxter International, Baxter Healthcare Corp. and Baxter Healthcare S.A. in relation to the filing of an abbreviated new drug application for the generic version of Brevibloc.
A study being published in Annals of Internal Medicine suggests that people with atrial fibrillation who take NSAIDs may be at risk for serious bleeding or thromboembolisms.
Using azithromycin and levofloxacin increases the risk of cardiac arrhythmia and death, according to a study of U.S. veterans.
Japanese drug maker Daiichi Sankyo is seeking Food and Drug Administration approval for a once-daily tablet to reduce the risk of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation and treatment of other conditions.
The Food and Drug Administration last week approved the anti-clotting drug Eliquis (apixaban), an oral tablet used to reduce the risk of stroke and dangerous blood clots in patients with atrial fibrillation that is not caused by a heart valve problem. Eliquis is manufactured by Bristol-Myers Squibb, and marketed by BMS and Pfizer.

There is no place for that memorable Intel Inside four-note sound. And you can't squeeze a headline, two paragraphs of text, a logo and a legal disclaimer into a 728 by 90 banner. Brand-marketing programs were meant to build up an impression of a company or product such that when time was right to purchase, the consumer of the media felt positively disposed toward a brand.

Bruins top Thunder for section crown
By: Russ Edmondson The Placer Herald
Ponderosa seems to have Rocklin's number
Rocklin High and Ponderosa were one minute from penalty kicks Saturday in the Sac-Joaquin Section, Division II soccer championship match at Folsom High. The teams had battled for about 100 minutes in the heat and the second, 10-minute overtime period was nearly complete when Ponderosa junior Allison James scored the lone goal of the match. Surrounded by Rocklin defenders, James popped a right-footed shot from just under 20 yards out that barely floated in under the crossbar. The goal gave the Bruins a 1-0 lead and a minute later Ponderosa won the section championship. Again. Ponderosa has won three section titles in the last six years and all three titles have come against the Thunder. The Bruins, who have reached the section finals six years in a row, topped the Thunder 4-0 in 2003 and 3-0 in 2005 in title matches. Ponderosa also ended Rocklin's seasons in 2006 and 2007, with 3-2 victories in the first round of the playoffs. The victory in 2006 was eerily similar to Saturday's match as Ponderosa broke a tie score with a goal in overtime with about one minute remaining before the match headed to penalty kicks. "That's the same goal they have scored on us the last two years," said Rocklin senior goalie Lauren Coiner about James' goal. "This definitely hurts worse (because it's Ponderosa)." Coiner's soccer career is not over as she will play at the Naval Academy but she will definitely miss her Rocklin teammates. "This team is just so tight - we've been around each other so much for all these years," said Coiner, who made several strong saves Saturday. Rocklin coach Chuck Barr could hardly believe that Ponderosa was able to score at the end. "It looked like we had three of our players there and then (James) got a foot on it," he said. "Give Pondo credit. They work really hard and they had enough left in the tank to get a goal at the end of the game. "I think we had more than the balance of chances. I kept telling (his players) that we need that little extra effort or that little extra focus or that little extra something." Despite the heart-breaking loss Barr was able to focus on what a successful season the Thunder had. "This was a special group of seniors," said Barr, referring to Steph Manstch, Macie Kukrall, Leah Crawford, Patty Carman, Kelly Kinsella and Coiner. "It was still a good year for us – a league championship in one of the toughest leagues in the area." The future appears to be bright as well. "I have six very good freshmen and one sophomore (Becca Anderson) that I brought up from the JV," Barr said.

They are all adopted family members and at least the youngest was a drug baby born at seven months. She's severely dyslexic. I'm mildly, so that helps me relate. The middle has mental blocks in certain areas so that makes it fun. The oldest sites our well on her own.
I love having them here, though it sure makes for a tougher schedule.

I shop for my mother once a week. It is, I am ashamed to say, something I find a chore.
But between the bakery and the chemist, the bottle shop and the supermarket, there is a little florist.
The guy that runs it is a gentleman. Lesley, his name is. I have know him for over fifteen years. He is kind and sympathetic with a calm smile. He has an aura of peace - a sense of rest about him that is adopted by folk that really love what they do each day.
I buy flowers for myself from him, as reward for my chore.
He helps me to my car each week and gives me a shrug and a grin at the carton of cigarettes and the casks of wine.
He knows my Mum. He is fond of her. He sends her a herb posy sometimes. He is kind.
I am grateful for gentle and peaceful people. Gracious genuinely cool people who show their understanding, their kindness and their care. The ones who do things for selfless reasons, not out of self promotion.

Buffalo, New York A Stunning City Filled with Lots to Discover
Brian Hayden, Visit Buffalo-Niagara | Jun 30, 2014, 2:57 p.m.
Buffalo, New York, is a vibrant city filled with lots to do and discover for persons of all ages.
At the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, you can see one of the world's most impressive collections of modern and contemporary art, including works by Van Gogh, Picasso and Warhol. Across the street, you'll find the stunning Burchfield Penney Art Center, which is committed to the art of Buffalo and Western New York.
As you walk around our city, you'll come across some of the finest architecture of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, featuring buildings by Frank Lloyd Wright, Louis Sullivan, H.H. Richardson, Richard Upjohn, and Eliel and Eero Saarinen.
Buffalo's emerging Canalside district showcases the city's waterfront and proud history of shipping along Lake Erie and the Erie Canal. The centerpiece of this district is the commercial slip, the western terminus of the Erie Canal dating from 1825 that has been re-excavated and restored. A system of bike trails, parks and boardwalks comprise Buffalo's Outer Harbor and offer stunning views of the lake and city skyline.
On the subject of history, you can stand where Teddy Roosevelt took the oath of office at the recently renovated Theodore Roosevelt Inaugural National Historic Site or learn about Buffalo's Native American, ethnic and industrial heritage at the Buffalo History Museum. Mark Twain spent time in Buffalo in the late 19th century as a newspaper editor; leaves from the original manuscript of the "Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" are on display in the Mark Twain Room at downtown's central library. The city is also filled with African-American heritage; for starters, Duke Ellington, Dizzy Gillespie and other jazz giants performed at the Colored Musicians Club, which is now a museum and still hosts regular gigs by area musicians.
If performing arts are your thing, Buffalo has two dozen theaters, anchored by the magnificent Shea's Performing Arts Center, which hosts an annual Broadway Series. The Grammy Award-winning Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra is led by JoAnn Falletta, who has been hailed by the New York Times as one of the finest conductors of her generation.
While Buffalo is justifiably proud of its chicken wings (and no trip to Buffalo is complete without a stop at the Anchor Bar, where wings first took flight 50 years ago this year), we also have 400 independently owned restaurants, delicious local specialties, a pair of wine trails and vibrant farmers markets. Don't miss some Western New York culinary favorites, including beef-on-weck sandwiches, sponge candy and charcoal broiled hot dogs. Buffalo is also home to several breweries, including Flying Bison and Hamburg brewing companies. The first distillery in Buffalo since Prohibition, Lockhouse Distillery, opened in 2013.
Shoppers will find everything from hip boutiques in Buffalo's trendy Elmwood Village, Allentown and Hertel neighborhoods to major department stores at a number of local shopping centers and malls.
Buffalo has a wealth of options for sports fans, including the NFL's Bills, NHL's Sabres, AAA baseball's Bisons, world-class fishing, great skiing and fantastic watersports. Kayak through the city's historic grain elevator district on the Buffalo River or rock climb up those elevators on Silo City Rocks, which is set to open this year.
