Whalin Harter-Leahy
Home from Qatar, Whalin Harter-Leahy '04 is a project coordinator who is actively looking for her next adventure.
By Donna Parker
When Whalin Harter-Leahy, who received a degree in anthropology from Trinity in 2004, first stepped off the airplane in Qatar, she had two thoughts: that it was "stunningly beautiful" and the temperature was 125 degrees at 10 p.m.
"I could see it was a wonderful juxtaposition of old crumbling desert style and unpaved roads with the most modern futuristic architecture you'll ever see," says Whalin.
Although she recently left Qatar to spend time with her fiancé in Houston, for the last 3½ years, Whalin has worked in the Qatar Foundation's Education City which is 1500 hectares and has nearly 4,000 students from pre-school through graduate school, including six American university branch campuses.
"As senior projects coordinator, I worked in a division with 45 people and I was the only Westerner, so my anthropology degree really came in handy. I served as a bridge and translator, mainly translating the subtle nuances of English communication."
Whalin's final project before leaving Qatar in July was coordinating the very first graduate school management degree being offered-the executive MBA from HEC Paris.
"These were daily negotiations and I'm proud to have established the program. The driving purpose behind this foundation in Doha is to become the Silicon Valley of the Middle East. It has the non-profit funding and educational power to ensure it becomes a knowledge capital destination."
Texas A&M, Northwestern, and Carnegie Mellon, along with five other institutions, have established campuses in this 900 acre space.
Whalin, who hails from a sixth generation organic farming family business in Northern California, is now dedicated to establishing the family's rice product overseas and has worked with the Moroccan government to formalize the organic agriculture business. Specifically, she is working on transforming one arm of the family business into an internationally based non-profit organization aimed at empowering women and marginal populations through appropriate and sustainable development, primarily through education, healthcare and agriculture.
She also has studied in Kenya and worked in Bolivia since graduation. In fact, she ran into several people who knew one of her Trinity professors.
"I met Dr. John Donahue, department of sociology and anthropology, when I was interviewing to attend Trinity. I can't tell you what a powerful influence he's been on my life and when I was in Bolivia, I actually met people with whom he'd worked with when he was a Catholic priest in the 70s and 80s."
There also were several Trinity alumni she ran into while in Qatar, including the first person she met in the embassy and one, in of all places, the shopping center.
"I was in the mall in Doha. I'd just been there three days and saw my Trinity friend Sarah Miller '05. I thought, this is amazing!"
Whalin says Trinity's small size and welcoming professors and friends helped shape her life, especially since she started at Trinity at age 17 and had no family nearby. During her college years, she and her freshman roommate restarted Amnesty International and she joined Alpha Chi Lambda.
"Trinity gave me so many opportunities to be flexible and to get along with any nationality or culture. It influenced many of us who have built lives within other cultures."
You may contact Whalin at firstname.lastname@example.com.
After reading this story if you feel strongly about any Trinity alumni who the Alumni Office should profile in future AlumNet issues, please submit your suggestions. We are looking for suggestions in these four categories: 1) recent grads, 2) grads who innovate, 3) grads in business, and 4) grads who serve the world. Feel free to nominate yourself if you fall in these categories.

Sun-Sentinel - 8/19/2006 12:00:00 AM
by Douane D. James
Led by schools in the west, Broward County shined in state academic rankings announced Friday. Broward accounted for 40 of the 225 elementary, middle and high schools lauded for their results on the 2006 Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test.
The brightest of the lot were the public schools in affluent Weston, which landed nine of its 10 schools on the high-performing list.
Out of nearly 1,900 elementary schools statewide, Eagle Point Elementary in Weston was named the No.1 performer, and Falcon Cove Middle in Weston was named No. 5 of its kind in the state.
"We set very high expectations," said Eagle Point Principal Marelise LeClerc. "Our children know they are expected to do well."
Schools in Weston have some of the lowest shares of pupils receiving free or reduced-price meals, a widely accepted index for predicting student achievement. The same goes for Cooper City, Parkland, and west Pembroke Pines, which also placed a number of schools on the top list.
The rankings reflect the banner year Broward schools enjoyed on the FCAT.
School-by-school grades were announced in June, with two of every three Broward schools earning an A. None received an F.
At Eagle Point, LeClerc said students are taught to view the FCAT positively.
"We say, `This is an opportunity to show what you know because we know you are so smart,'" she said. "I think the kids look at [the test] that way."
In Weston, schools achieve despite being among the biggest and most crowded in Broward.
Falcon Cove Middle enrolls more 2,200 students, the most of any middle school in the county.
"On the surface, it would appear it would be a problem," said Falcon Cove Principal Mark Kaplan. "But in our case we've been OK."
Kaplan said students from wealthy families tend to be better prepared to learn, but that does not mean the work of faculty and staff is trouble-free.
"You still have to work," he said. "You still have to prove yourself."
The FCAT is administered in grades three through 11 in reading, mathematics, science and writing.
The state computes school grades based on overall achievement and year-to-year gains.
One Weston parent said Florida schools put too much focus on testing.
"Who cares what the grades and rankings of the schools are?" asked Andrew Horowitz, whose daughter attends Cypress Bay High School in Weston, which made the Top 50 list of high schools.
"There's too much emphasis on [the FCAT]," he added. "We're creating children who are robotic test-takers."
See the complete list at the Florida Department of Education.

Disease Proof
Diet high in omega-6 fats increases risk for ulcerative colitis
Ulcerative colitis falls under the category of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). It is an autoimmune disease in which excessive inflammation kills cells in the lining of the colon, leaving ulcers behind. Ulcerative colitis is a chronic condition that commonly causes abdominal pain and bloody diarrhea, and it carries with it an increased risk of colorectal cancer. In some severe cases, the colon must be surgically removed. Clearly, this condition also causes a great deal of emotional trauma.1
Recent studies have identified dietary patterns that may predispose individuals to ulcerative colitis. High intake of fats, refined sugars, and fried potato products were positively associated with ulcerative colitis, and fruit consumption was found to be protective.2
Most recently, omega-6 fatty acids have been investigated. Omega-6 fatty acids are essential fatty acids, meaning that we must obtain them from our diet for good health, but the typical American diet contains an excessive amount of omega-6, which can produce a pro-inflammatory environment in the body.
Linoleic acid is an omega-6 fat that is highly concentrated in red meat, cooking oils, and margarines. In the digestive system, linoleic acid is metabolized into arachidonic acid, which incorporates into cell membranes of the colon. When arachidonic acid is broken down further, its products are pro-inflammatory – these products are found in excess in the intestinal cells of patients with ulcerative colitis. For these reasons, scientists believed that excess linoleic acid might be linked to ulcerative colitis risk.
A prospective study of over 200,000 men and women in Europe found that the subjects who consumed the highest levels of omega-6 linoleic acid were 2.5 times more likely to be diagnosed with ulcerative colitis. The researchers also found a negative association between the omega-3 fatty acid DHA and ulcerative colitis – subjects in the highest level of DHA intake decreased their risk by 77%.3
Avoiding excess levels of linoleic acid is simply accomplished by eating a diet that is based on whole plant foods and limits animal products and added fats. A diet of natural whole foods provides us with omega-6 fatty acids in appropriate amounts - not in excess – producing an anti-inflammatory environment.
For those who already have ulcerative colitis, it is important to know that the condition can be improved and sometimes completely resolved with dietary changes – conventional treatment of IBD often includes immunosuppressive drugs with dangerous side effects. Specific dietary recommendations for sufferers of IBD are outlined in the Inflammatory Bowel Disease newsletter.

I read your IBD newsletter with great interest, until I got to the part where you completely misrepresent the specific carbohydrate diet proposed by Elaine Gottschall. Clearly you have not even read her book since you state that a number of foods that are actually KEY to the diet at all stages (like carrots) are not allowed on it!
You misrepresent her views entirely--whether this is out of ignorance or malice, it's inexcusable. If this is the quality of your "research" and the standard for your "medical insights" I can't trust any of the other claims you make. I'm very dissappointed to see that you're probably just another charlatan like Mercola, trying to establish a nutritional empire by making libelous statements against others to hide your own lack of research. This is expecially unfortunate in this instance, because if you actually read Gottschall's book you would see that she promotes a substantially similar diet for IBD health as you do (though hers has the benefit of actual research behind it--your failure to read it doesn't mean it doesn't exist).
Thank you for addressing the confusing array of suggested diets for IBD. I am concerned about the high animal fat nature of both the SCD and GAPS diet. Please post more under digestive health. I am particularly interested in SIBO, Candida, IBS, gluten/casien/lectic crossover, and raw cultured vegetables.
Again, my thanks for your expertise. I have a lot of confidence in your recommendations.

Thank you for your insight to Ulcerative Colitis. I wish I had that information 10 years ago! Now I have no colin and need to know how to eat now? My system is now completely different. My small intestines were used to replace my large. I cant absorb anything and vegetables are extremely difficult to digest? What would you suggest.
Thank you!
Lisa B- I too lost my colon to UC 20 years ago. Been on ETL 4 months. Going to have medical consultation on phone with Dr. Fuhrman associate Dr. Benson. Hope this helps!

Secrets of Success
Removing the Negative
Friday, November 14, 2008
I couldn't think of a good title. But I'ts 3:20 a.m. I just came to the conclusion for the umpteenth time that I need to remove the negative people and thoughts from my life. I'm trying to remember that " No one can make you feel inferior without your consent" but... when that is someone's main goal it's a little difficult to remember your worth... :-/ And I do realize that my self-worth/esteem should not be based on someone else's opinion and that honestly this is MY responsibility. I am responsible for my happiness or lack there of. But anyway, I am tired of dealing with situations that I know I would not stick around for if I felt like I had more options and confidence to get up and leave.
I'm keeping this vague because it is the internet and I have a diary for my MOST personal thoughts :-D.
Things I want to do:
1. remember my life is complete even if it is only me and God :-)
2. Become SO secure in myself and my capabilities that even someone TELLING me I can't do it, isn't enough to convince me.
3. REmove the negatvie people from my life slowly but surely.
4. Replace them with positive people.
5. In the mean while, develop things that I like that I can do alone
6. Spend MOST of my time with people I enjoy.
7. Be too busy to care.
8. Spend free time gained by removing negative people on improving myself and STUDYING! :-)
9. NEVER lose myself in a situation that becomes all-encompassing
10. Pray and SLEEP. (which I am going to do now! :-)
**BOnus- Do things that make me look and feel confident. :-)

"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent"
I used to carry this quote around with me in my twenties. I don't know exactly when it was that I removed it from my wallet. Maybe when I finally got it through my head.
I went through a sort of cleansing of negative people a few years ago. It can be painful when you have alot of history. But for some reason, some people want to bring you down when they're feeling low. It's a lesson in compassion.

I've learned and I know you're learning that negative folks bring ya down. I've gone as far as changing my work hours to avoid a negative body. I couldn't do it - slowly I just up and decided that today it ends. We have to take care of self and surround "self" with positives and things that enrich us. If I offer one bit of advice - remove negative people and things ASAP and you'll start to feel relief and feel better ASAP. Rather you realize it or not - negativity affects the body and your health. Keep focusing on your goals and I'm sure you'll heal quickly and revel in the beauty of positivity and peace.

Two massive currents converge on the Coastal Bend. One sweeps down across the Louisiana coast and south past north-central Texas, while the second rises up from Mexico. These currents bring abundant fish and marine species, as well as the stinky, but ecologically significant Sargassum seaweed that covers our beaches during spring and early summer. Unfortunately, the currents also carry trash - loads and loads of trash. The good news for Corpus Christians is that not all of our beach trash is our fault; in fact, most of it comes from elsewhere. The bad news is that our beaches are often junky, stinky places. Thankfully, there is one local beach that retains its pristine quality despite the constant influx of garbage.
Rockport Beach Park might seem like a measly stretch of land when compared to the vastness of Padre Island National Seashore and other local beaches. Don't be fooled. This beach, which is actually adjacent to Aransas Bay rather than the Gulf of Mexico, is the cleanest, most comfortable locale you'll find in the area. Lined with thatch-roofed shades and picnic tables, the the beach is narrow yet sufficient for the smaller crowds in the Rockport area. Bathrooms and showers are readily available, and the water - incredibly shallow and wave-free - is ideal for families.
The Rockport Beach Park is the only Texas beach to qualify as a Blue Wave beach, which is an environmental certification for beaches. The pristine quality of the beach is evident when one visits, as a bird sanctuary lines various parts of the beach and sea grass meadows abound within arm's reach. Not surprisingly, perhaps, snorkeling is a popular activity in the fish-filled waters of the park.
The park is open Monday through Thursday 5 am through 11 pm and Friday through Sunday 5 am through midnight. Entrance is $4 per vehicle per day or $10 for an annual pass. Visit the Rockport Beach Park web page for more information.

Building on the success of last year's sold-out inaugural festival, this year's show, promises even more all-star players, multiple rooms filled with live Hot Jazz, Ragtime and Stride piano, and the Hot Jazz Film Festival.
NY Hot Jazz Fest will feature Grammy Award-winners VINCE GIORDANO AND THE NIGHTHAWKS with special guest vocalist CATHERINE RUSSELL; star swing clarinetist KEN PEPLOWSKI and his NEW SWING quartet (with a special surprise star vocal guest); Gypsy Swing guitar god FRANK VIGNOLA, joined by VINNY RANIOLO; one of the Hot Jazz Renaissance leaders, trumpeter, and a co-founder of the New York Hot Jazz Festival BRIA SKONBERG leading BRASS KICKER brass band; and, the only returning band from last year's Festival, the exhilarating HOT SARDINES.
To go along with the vanguard, audiences will be treated to up and comers like 2013 Sarah Vaughan Vocal Rising Star award-winner KATE DAVIS, Gypsy Swing violinist ADRIEN CHEVALIER with the HOT CLUB OF NEW YORK, as well as 22-year-old "eloquent trumpet prodigy" MIKE DAVIS and his NEW WONDERS.
Also joining in this year's festivities will be Birdland regulars DAVID OSTWALD'S LOUIS ARMSTRONG ETERNITY BAND, banjo virtuoso CYNTHIA SAYER & SPARKS FLY with Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra's own Vincent Gardner, swing stars DAN LEVINSON'S GOTHAM SOPHISTICATS with rising star vocalist MOLLY RYAN and wunderkind vocalist / multi-instrumentalist JERRON "BLIND BOY" PAXTON, exciting Hot Jazz reedman ADRIAN CUNNINGHAM with PROFESSOR CUNNINGHAM AND HIS OLD SCHOOL (who will be joined by tap dance star ANDREW NEMR), alongside many more. The night will be capped by an all-hands-on-deck jam session led by DENNIS LICHTMAN, a multi-instrumentalist founder of the storied Mona's hot jazz jam sessions.
This year's NY Hot Jazz Festival will include a multinational contingent of young musicians that have embraced Hot Jazz in recent years, with players hailing from Australia, Canada, France, Israel, Brazil, Sweden, and beyond. All told, The Festival will give the audience a rare chance to hear the entire breadth and scope of early jazz, from the beginnings in New Orleans, through the music's glorious migration to Chicago and then Harlem, up through the Roaring '20s, Prohibition, and into the beginning of the Swing era.
This year's festival will also devote more stages for continual live music. Two rooms will host featured bands, while another room will be dedicated to Ragtime and Stride Piano music, featuring pianist (and host of NPR's Piano Jazz) Jon Weber, alongside musicians Ehud Asherie, Mark Shane, Dalton Ridenhour, Jesse Gelber, and Peter Yarin. In yet another room, The Festival will showcase a pair of special film showings, curated by Louis Armstrong scholar and archivist of the Louis Armstrong House Museum, Ricky Riccardi. The first -- THE SATCHMO-THON -- will be six hours of footage of vintage Louis Armstrong performances. During The Festival's second half, THE HOT JAZZ CLIP FEST takes over the projector, featuring all things Hot Jazz as presented in film.
The Players Club is the new home of The New York Hot Jazz Festival. Overlooking Gramercy Park, this clubhouse holds more than a century of social club history, boasting founding members such as Mark Twain, Laurence Hutton, and William Tecumseh Sherman. Today, the venue's goal is to cultivate an ambiance of conviviality, culture, history and comfort; in other words, a perfect setting for the New York Hot Jazz Festival.
After the music ends, it starts right back up again with a jam session at the Late Night Supper After-Party at Mona's (224 Avenue B, b/t E. 13th and E. 14th Street) from 1 am - 4 am.

Chris | Purchase date: 12 June 2013
Good and easy to use yet some of the knobs are a little loose.
Tomasz | Purchase date: 30 September 2012
It's really good interface, well build, apart from knobs witch are a bit wobbly, but when i wanted to use it on a windows 7 pc it started to make all sorts of diffrent noises. I am glad i have exchanged it for something else.
Matt | Purchase date: 11 October 2011
The Tascam US-122 is probably the best audio interface you can buy for the price bracket in question. It is sturdy, so can be thrown in a rucksack or laptop case between gigs or sessions. Low profile pots and a metal case make this unit very transportable too. It allows two track simultaneous recording without effecting latency. It has phantom power to both mic inputs. It runs straight out of the box. The added software bundle - a fully registered copy of Cubase 5 LE (somewhere between the "Essentials" and "Studio" editions) - means you can get straight to recording.
Highly recommended - tougher and better sound quality than the rivals in a similar price bracket, although the Novation NI02 is very close.
Mihai | Purchase date: 21 January 2011
Great product.
It came with a Cubase LE license, which made it better :)
I love the volume mix knobs. They help a lot during recording.
J Hurley | Purchase date: 04 October 2010
This is an okay piece of equipment, quite cheap and cheerful, and easy to use. I only use it to create demo tracks of guitars over programmed drums, and for that it's fine. The audio quality is so-so, although after messing around with plug-ins you can get quite decent guitar tone, if that's what you are looking for. Overall, if you are looking to make a musical masterpiece with perfect audio sound quality, you may want to invest a bit more money. However, if you're just looking to get your ideas down or even learn how to work with audio then this is rather handy.

Worsbrough Common got the better of Lundwood by six goals to two at a match at Wombwell Main Cricket Club on Sunday afternoon.
The game was held in honour of Darfield girl Darcy Burke who died earlier this year aged six.
Steve Hockey, 53, who helped to organise and is Darcy's uncle, said: "It was a thriller of a match with Lundwood trying their best to the last whistle but Worsbrough were just too good on the day.
"The man of the final was Tommy Dolan but there were no losers in this game as Darcy's Cup is a tournament organised by Joe Gibbons to raise funds for Bluebell Wood Children's Hospice.
"Darcy's dad Dave Burke presented the cup and medals to the winners.
"We would like to thank Wombwell Main Cricket Club for the use of their field and the fun day they organised afterwards."
Money raised from the day is still being counted up.

War and Peace
by Leo Tolstoy
Boris Drubetskoy
Character Analysis
A young man from an aristocratic but poor family, Boris is a no-holds-barred striver and social climber whose only motive is getting ahead.
Boris might be one the most striking examples in the book of the narrator's impartiality. Imagine how this ultimate grade grubber would be portrayed in most novels. Would the narrator just kind of describe his actions with no judgment? No way. Maybe Boris wouldn't be the biggest bad guy ever, but he would certainly be a cautionary tale of the evils of not being happy with your station in life. Boris would most likely come to some terrible end – probably a fitting one tied to his love of money and rank.
But in War and Peace, no such thing happens. Boris gets to have his cake and eat it too. He rises higher and higher through the army ranks without a problem. He marries ugly, annoying Julie Karagin for her money and seems none the worse for the transaction. We can think whatever ill of him we want, but the novel isn't going to do our dirty work for us.

Is it willing to relocate?
You need to negotiate relocation with the resident ants.
The ants are mere tenants at will--they've got no reasonable investment-backed expectations here, so they've got no rights that need to be considered.

We report a follow up study on two MOPD II Thai families with severe dental anomalies and hypoplastic alveolar bone. Striking dental anomalies comprise severe microdontia, opalescent and abnormally shaped teeth, and rootless molars. As a result of severe hypoplastic alveolar bone, most permanent teeth have been lost. Mutation analysis of PCNT revealed 2 novel mutations (p.Lys3154del and p.Glu1154X) and a recurrent mutation (p.Pro1923X). Teeth of the patient who carried a homozygous novel mutation of p.Glu1154X are probably the smallest ever reported. The sizes of the mandibular permanent incisors and all premolars were approximately 2-2.5 mm, mesiodistally. All previously reported, PCNT mutations have been described to cause premature truncation of the pericentrin protein. p.Lys3154del mutation was unique as it was pathogenic as a result of missing only a single amino acid. In situ hybridization of Pcnt shows its expression in the epithelium and mesenchyme during early stages of rodent tooth development. It is evident that PCNT has crucial role in tooth development. The permanent dentition is more severely affected than the one. This implies that PCNT appears to have more role in the development of the permanent dentition. As pericentrin is a critical centrosomal protein, the dental phenotype found in MOPD II patients is postulated to be the consequence of loss of microtubule integrity which leads to defective centrosome function.

In June 1962, dozens of activists belonging to Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) met in Port Huron, Michigan, to draft a manifesto for a new era of protest. The Port Huron Statement grasped the spirit of the Black Freedom Struggle, the peace movement, and the anti-colonial revolution abroad. It presented a radical vision of social justice and what democracy in action could mean—and it spread the word about an awakening New Left that would soon shake the world.
"A New Insurgency: The Port Huron Statement in Its Time and Ours," an open, public conference held at the University of Michigan, October 31-November 2, 2012, marked the 50th anniversary of SDS's founding document. Leading activists past and present as well as distinguished scholars explored the diverse contexts that fostered new radical movements in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Conference discussions compared the "new insurgency" of 2011-12—from the Arab Spring to Occupy Wall Street, the "indignados" and anti-austerity rallies of Europe, and mass student campaigns from Chile to Quebec—with that of 50 years past.
"A New Insurgency" was organized by University of Michigan faculty, students, and staff. In recognition of Michigan's role in 1960s campus radicalism, we invited scholars, activists, and community members—from this region, the U.S., and around the world—to join us and consider how insurgent campaigns for freedom, equality, and social justice arise and make history.

Dec. 5, 2013
By Geoff Thurner
FRESNO, Calif. - Barely two months away from its 37th season opener, the Fresno State softball team unveiled an impressive 2014 spring schedule that features many of the nation's top teams.
Among the Bulldogs' 56 games against 35 opponents, its non-conference slates features five WCWS returnees in 2013 national runner-up Tennessee, Arizona State, Nebraska, Texas and Washington.

Fresno State's first weekend of conference play is on the road at Boise State (March 21-23), and its first MW home action is the following weekend vs. Utah State (March 28-30).
The Bulldogs' other three-game conference home stands feature returning league champion San Diego State (April 11-13), UNLV (April 25-27) and Colorado State (May 2-4), and road trips to New Mexico (April 4-6), San Jose State (April 22-23) and Nevada (May 8-10).
"This schedule is going to elevate our play," Ford said. "We return several of our starters from last year, and add several talented freshmen that we expect to make a difference for us this year."
Seeking an NCAA record 31st NCAA postseason appearance, the `Dogs will vie to be among the 64 teams part of NCAA Regional play at 16 sites nationally on Thursday-Sunday, May 15-18.

Margarine labels may have so many more claims per square-inch because manufacturers have a reputation to repair. After a rocky start as a butter substitute, margarine spent a couple of decades basking in its image as a healthy alternative to butter. Then came the news that margarines trans fat may be even worse than butters saturated fat, which threw millions of confused consumers back into the butter camp.
Time to jump ship again. Supermarket shelves now offer dozens of margarines (theyre called spreads if theyre less than 80 percent oil) that are low in both artery-clogging fats. Heres how to find them.
That doesnt mean you have to switch to a fat-free margarine. In fact, unsaturated fats, especially polyunsaturated ones, are good for you. They counteract saturated and trans fats by lowering LDL (bad) cholesterol. As long as only about 30 percent of the fat in your spread is sat-plus-trans, it should help lower your cholesterol. Less than 20 percent is even better. The trick is that labels are often silent about trans fat, even when companies know how much is in their spreads.
Our chart lumps saturated and trans fat together, even though some studies suggest that trans is even worse. Unlike saturated fat, trans may lower HDL (good) cholesterol, make it harder for arteries to dilate, and raise the risk of diabetes (see Oct. 2001, p. 12). Thats why only one of our Best Bites or Honorable Mentions had more than half a gram of trans fat. (Canoleo margarine, which is high in all fats, has nearly a gram of trans.)
Note that no stick margarines are Best Bites. Most have more trans or sat fat than tubs. Thats what helps them keep their shape. Exception: Several years ago, Promise replaced the trans fat in all of its margarines with a small amount of saturated fatenough to keep the sticks solid yet give each tablespoon no more than 2.5 grams of sat fat.
Thanks to their polyunsaturated fat, fattier Best Bites should lower your cholesterol more than low-fat or fat-free ones. But you pay a price for that fat. Each tablespoon of a full-fat margarine has about 100 calories. A light spread, on the other hand, has 40 to 50 calories, and a fat-free spread has no more than five.
So weigh your needs. If you can afford 100 calories with each swipe of the butter knife, go for a fattier spread. If not, go lower. A tablespoon of Smart Beat, one of our long-time favorites, clocks in at just 20 calories.
Just remember: less fat means more water in your spread, so you may not be able to use it for baking or sautéing or on hot toast. Many labels on spreads contain a warning like not recommended for frying, but you may have to hunt for the small print.
Some deserve attention; others you can ignore:
Buttery Taste. We found remarkable inconsistency in how our staff rated the flavor of our Best Bites and Honorable Mentions. Youll have to be the judge.
Calcium. Some brands, like Parkay Calcium Plus and I Cant Believe Its Not Butter Sweet Cream & Calcium, have 100 mg of calcium (ten percent of the Daily Value) in each tablespoon. Its not worth buying a high-sat or high-trans spread just for the calcium, but if youre choosing among Best Bites and Honorable Mentions like these, calcium might give one brand an edge.
Cholesterol-free. Ignore. Nearly all margarines are cholesterol-free. The question is whether they will raise your bad cholesterol, and that depends on how much saturated and trans fat they contain. To avoid misleading people, the FDA prohibits cholesterol-free claims on foods with more than two grams of sat fat, but it hasnt set any limits on trans fat yet.
For Fat-Free Cooking. Thats the sort of claim youll find on PAM and other cooking sprays that come in aerosol cans. All are Best Bites because their key ingredient is (unsaturated) oil. But dont be fooled.
Your dish will only be fat-free if you follow the directions on the can. In some cases, that means spraying for a third of a second. When we asked the manufacturers how they came up with that ridiculously small number, one told us that their test kitchen found that a one-second spray was enough for three omelettes, so they divided by three.
The question is: For how long can you spray before the calories and fat start adding up? According to Pams Web site, a one-second spray has seven calories, which means that it delivers nearly one gram of fat. So if you spray for about six seconds, youll be getting a teaspoon of oil. (Other brands refused to give us information for a one-second spray, but their numbers are probably similar to PAMs.)
Pumps are a different story. Somelike I Cant Believe Its Not Butter Sprayare fat-free not just because you use so little, but because they have about as much water as oil. That makes it easier to keep the calories down. Just dont try to spray it on your toast or youll end up with a soggy mess.
Lactose-free. In most cases, that simply means that the spread doesnt contain any butter or the tiny bit of whey that manufacturers add to many margarines and spreads. Thats important if youre a vegan or are allergic to dairy, but if youre lactose intolerant, it doesnt mean a thing. Notice the zero next to Total Carbohydrates on the label of any margarine (lactose-free or not)? That means each serving cant have more than a half-gram of sugar. Even if all of that sugar came from lactose (the sugar in milk), it wouldnt be enough to cause stomach problems.
Light. Half the calories is a plus if youre like most Americanseither overweight or trying not to be.
Made with Yogurt or Buttermilk. The yogurt in Brummel & Browns spread may add to its creamy-but-tart flavor. But despite the labels claim, theres not enough to supply the goodness of yogurt, if by that the company means vitamins, protein, and active cultures. Ditto for brands made with sweet cream buttermilk. Enjoy the flavor, but dont expect more.
Omegas. Spectrum Naturals Essential Omega Spread has six grams of omega-3 fats (from flaxseed oil) in each tablespoon. Thats impressive, since omegas not only lower cholesterol (like any polyunsaturated fat), but may help prevent heart disease by protecting the hearts rhythm. So far, studies on people have only found protection from the omega-3 fats in fish oil. If there were a link with flax, the food is so rarely eaten that researchers probably wouldnt be able to pick it up.
The problem is that polyunsaturated fats are liquid ...and what youll find when you open a tub of Spectrum (no, it isnt spoiled) is half-oil and half-spread. Runny doesnt begin to capture it.
Trans-free. Important. It means that a tablespoon of the spread has no more than half a gram of trans. For some reason, labels of a few trans-free spreads dont say a word about trans. Go figure.
Whipped. If you insist on eating butter, at least make it whipped. Adding air means theres less room for butter...and for butters 11 grams of fat and eight grams of sat fat in each tablespoon. Even so, a tablespoon of whipped butter will still set you back seven grams of fat, five of them saturated. Thats a quarter of a days sat fatalmost as much as youd get in a glass of whole milk.

Although Tilly's Diner may be brand new to the Bridgeport area, it is certainly nothing new to the Taste Buds.
The Buds have visited Tilly's initial location on First Street in Moundsville as well as the previous location (no longer operating) in the Warwood shopping plaza. Both times the Buds were served up a yummy lunch at an affordable price. What more could a Bud ask for?!
At its newest location at the former Ponderosa Steakhouse on Rt. 40, Tilly's offers the same menu set in a 50's themed atmosphere. Offering breakfast, lunch and dinner, there is sure to be something on Tilly's menu for everyone.
The breakfast offerings include various styles and combinations of eggs, muffins, sausages, bacon, breakfast potatoes, biscuits, gravy, toast, steak, French toast and pancakes. And, for good measure, they've also thrown in omelets! Who doesn't love a good dose of cheese in the morning?
As self-proclaimed lovers of breakfast foods, the Buds were eyeing up a platter of two pancakes, two eggs and choice of meat for just $4.99 or their mac daddy of omelets: the Big Poppa Omelet (bacon, ham, sausage, cheese, mushrooms, onion and pepper) and toast which rings in at just under seven bucks.
Not too shabby!
The lunch menu is a tantalizing feast for the sandwich lover - burgers, reubens, clubs, dogs, grilled cheese, tuna salad and BLT's are all on the menu.
The Buds were previously challenged to try the famous Tilly Burger, which is three - that's right - three cheese burgers topped with bacon, lettuce, tomato, onion and pickle. While it was delicious, the monster burger proved to be a little more than the Buds could handle, at least if they wanted to be at all productive during the duration of the work day.
That considered, one Bud opted to get the Slim Jim with a side of fries, and a trip to the salad bar for an additional $2.99.
The salad bar was kept simple, an iceburg lettuce mix with various veggie toppings, macaroni salad, cole slaw, potato salad and cottage cheese. Also included was a pot of chili, though the Buds decided not to indulge as it was nearly100 degrees outside.
The sandwich, made of ham, swiss, thousand island dressing, lettuce and tomato served on Texas toast, was quite tasty. The only concern was that it maybe could have had a little more "stuff "on it, as the the thickness of the bread made the fillings seem a bit scarce. Said Bud added a small salad from the bar and a heap of their homemade cole slaw, which happened to be outstanding! With the fries and a soda, the filling lunch rang in at 10 bucks.
The other Bud ordered the taco burger-a yummy burger topped with lettuce, onions, salsa and sour cream. While the burger was delicious, said Bud had trouble eating it because the sour cream soaked into the bottom of the bread and caused it to fall apart. Delicious but messy! With the salad bar and french fries on the side, this meal filled a Buds' belly for just under nine bucks.
The family-friendly diner offers a bevy of affordable dinners (ham, liver & onions, hot beef, hot turkey, spaghetti, fish and chicken), a senior menu, and a kids menu. They also have homemade pies which may be purchased by the slice or whole.
Sadly, the Buds were too full to try the pie though it sure looked delicious. This might just be the perfect excuse to head back to Tilly's.
The Buds may be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Bust out those maps and chart your course to Glamville, ladies. ULTA Baked Eyeshadow Trios ($10) are your tickets to looking smoking hot times three. Michigan Avenue (shown in large) is just the pop of color your spring wardrobe needs. Or you could take a cab down to Wall Street (khaki, gold and brown trio) for a more refined visage. Whether you apply them wet or dry, these shadows are three times as likely to make you the mayor of Funky Town!

I love Ulta eyeshadows! They are so underrated but they are highly pigmented and inexpensive.
I'm glad that you commented on the pigmentation. I am always wary of store-brand eyeshadow for that very reason. Now I'll definitely have to try it out.

A 30,000 square-foot space, the former Cold Drawn building on Founders Way at the Bethlehem SteelStacks complex, is poised to become a culinary arts center. According to a producer of TV food shows for PBS, this could be the "culinary center of the North East".
The Cold Drawn building, formerly was the place where iron bars were treated as part of the steel making production process, and then later was used for storing spare machine parts.
The idea is being pitched by TV promoter Joe Horn, who currently produces "The Chief Kitchen" for PBS, and has moved filming off the show from Philadelphia to the PBS39 studio, which is on the SteelStacks campus.
The Sands Casino Resort Bethlehem is a sponsor for the show, which most likely piqued the TV promoter's interest. Horn is betting that while filming the next six episodes of the show and opening it to studio visitors, he can build a culinary clientele in the area.. This would help to build the base and provide the support needed for his proposed culinary center.
The culinary center would be funded by tax money generated from Bethlehem's special tax-zone and Horn's based on his personal experience already has asked friends and other chiefs to develop four concept restaurants for the facility.
Although a developer has not yet been found, and no financing or funding even attempted, what is being recommended is plans for a building that would house four restaurants, gourmet food shops, and perhaps some type of open air market featuring wares from local farmers.

College Hockey:Parise Brothers Seal Series For North Dakota
DENVER — It wasn't the first time that Pioneers clashed with Fighting Sioux — in the wild west or in the equally wild WCHA. But the Denver Pioneers may have wished it was the last, as the invading North Dakota Sioux swept their weekend series by a combined score of 14-4.
"It's tough to sweep on the road anywhere in the WCHA," said North Dakota assistant coach Dave Hakstol. "Denver's a real good hockey team. They're a proud hockey team and tonight was a real battle."
The Sioux won Saturday night, 6-2, on the strength of a tenacious defense that killed nine penalties while blocking 21 shots. When the defense wasn't deflecting the puck, freshman goaltender Jordan Parise was there to backstop his team with 25 saves.
No save was more crucial than the one Parise made with 12 seconds remaining in the first period. With North Dakota leading, 1-0, a defenseman covered the puck in the crease, leading to a penalty shot for the Pioneers. As Connor James skated in for the shot, Parise came out and calmly denied his backhand attempt.
"That's the biggest thing with goaltenders — you need a big save at the right time," said Hakstol. "Jordie gave us a few of those tonight."
On the offensive end, younger brother Zach Parise assisted on both the first goal and the eventual game-winner. Junior center Colby Genoway pitched in two goals and an assist, while Parise's linemate, Brandon Bochenski, had one goal and a helper.
Bochenski had the first tally of the contest at 9:48 into the first as the Sioux capitalized on a 5-on-3 power play.
At 7:05 of the second frame, Denver made good on a power play of its own to knot the score at 1. After a series of pinpoint passes from James and Adrian Veideman, Jon Foster buried the puck five-hole.
Just 5:14 later, North Dakota pulled ahead for good as freshman Drew Stafford penetrated the zone, faked a shot and wristed the puck past Glenn Fisher in the Denver net. Genoway and Mike Prpich registered assists on the play.
Throughout the period, North Dakota continued to create turnovers on defense.
"[Defense] is an awfully big part of the game and right now we've got guys, not only up front but certainly back on the blueline, doing a good job of helping our goaltenders," said Hakstol.
Play opened up in the third as the Sioux scored again just 25 seconds in, with Parise and Bochenski working the puck out of the corner to Brady Murray, who was wide open in front of the net.
At 8:32, Denver captain Ryan Caldwell brought the Pioneers within one when he scored on a shot from the point. Gabe Gauthier had the assist.
It was as close as Denver would come. The Sioux poured on three insurance goals to seal the game and the series. Genoway scored with an assist from Chris Porter at 10:40. Porter had a goal of his own at 14:17 with an assist from David Lundbohm. Genoway then finished the night with his second tally at 16:57 off of assists from Prpich and Stafford.
There were several dozen North Dakota fans amongst the 4,916 spectators, cheering vigorously for the victorious Sioux.
"It's fun," said Hakstol. "It seems like everywhere we go, there's an awful lot of green and white up in the stands."
The North Dakota faithful will next watch its team in a home exhibition game on Dec. 5 against the U.S. National Under-18 Team. Denver will hope to rebound in two nonconference matchups with Findlay and Air Force over Thanksgiving weekend.

● A cool, cloudy day greeted the Huskies on Saturday for their third practice of the spring. Saturday's workout marked the first time the Huskies could be in full pads after working the first two practices of the spring in shorts and helmets. ● "First day of pads, and it was good to see them compete," said NIU head coach Rod Carey. "There was a lot of back-and-forth, the offense was a little rusty today, which usually happens (early in the spring), defense played with good emotion. We have a lot of things to clean up but with the way they went about their business, I was proud of the team today."● In a running game drill that marked the first offense vs. defense contact of the day, Joe Windsor set a good tone for the defense with a fumble recovery early in the period. Windsor was around the ball again later in 11-on-11, causing a turnover for the first-team defense against the first-team offense. ● Marlon Moore made his impact felt early and often during seven-on-seven drills. Moore had a pair of pass breakups on the first two plays, followed by an interception on the third play of the period. ● Referees were also a part of today's practice for the Huskies. Coach Carey said they are important to help the players with new rule changes each year. "They are changing the rules every year on us, so you have to stay on top of it. If you don't you will be wrong, so we are going to have them out as much as we can."● Among the visitors at practice on Saturday was the Huskie mascot, Diesel, who looked very comfortable in the cool conditions on the Huskie Stadium sidelines. ● Spring practice will continue on Monday, April 1, practice is scheduled to begin at 3:20 p.m. CT.

PROVO — Derek Marquis has a front seat in witnessing a technological revolution: Delivering BYU athletic events to the four corners of the world.
The metamorphic change, a big chunk of it in the course of a few months, has been accomplished quicker than any collegiate sports entity in the nation.
Marquis is the managing director of BYU Broadcasting and oversees BYUtv, KBYU radio and television. He has become a point man in BYU's partnership with ESPN and he is overseeing progress in delivering broadcast exposure for BYU's sports brand and other programming.
As BYU breaks ties with the Mountain West Conference June 30 and moves many of its sports to the West Coast Conference while attempting independence in football, a myriad of digital enterprises will spider web across the globe.
BYUtv is currently broadcast in HD on Comcast in Utah, HD over-the-air in Utah and HD worldwide with live streaming at www.BYUtv.org.
Broadcasting the product in HD has been a priority.
This weekend, I asked Marquis to name theTop 3 mileposts BYUtv has achieved since the state of the art building and studio opened in February. I then asked him what expects the top advances will be in coming months.
The Done List
BYUtv is now producing and transmitting all content in full HD over the air as well as on Comcast in Utah (channel 647).
"We are working hard to secure additional HD carriage throughout the U.S. I wanted to make sure everyone knows our Internet stream is full HD," he said. "I'm pretty sure there isn't another university in the country that will have 140-live HD events online this year, let alone nationwide."
The new BYU Broadcasting Building is now fiber connected to the Marriott Center allowing BYUtv to produce events out of the Marriott Center directly from the control rooms in the building freeing up our new HD truck to be used simultaneously at other venues on campus.
"In the past, we had to pick and choose which events we would cover as we could only have our truck in one place at a time," he said. "In addition to the Marriott Center, we are also connecting the other key venues on campus to the new building which, again, will allow us to do multiple athletic events in the same day."
Since moving into the building, BYUtv produced its first games in partnership with the WCC when it produced eight of the WCC Basketball Tournament games from the Orleans Arena in Las Vegas in March.
"BYUtv produced and aired eight of the tournament games and ESPN produced four of the tournament games," he said. "(Of course, BYUtv didn't play in the tournament as we were still under the MWC in March, but our partnership with the WCC is now in full swing)."
Other mileposts and capabilities include a locally produced "True Blue" show hosted by Las Vegas TV personality Dave McCann. The station is producing a series to be released in the fall called "Legends" a look back at BYU's greatest players and coaches.
"We have several other sports and non-sports related series and specials currently in production," he said. "The new facilities give us capacity and capabilities we've simply not had heretofore."
The Coming-up List
BYUtv will air approximately 140 live BYU Athletics events/games in the coming year. This will be more live games airing nationally for BYU than at any year in the history. In addition, BYUtv will air approximately 80 other sports related programs and specials such as Legends, True Blue and other sports oriented programming bringing the total to well over 200 during the year. BYUtv is currently in approximately 60 million homes nationwide on Dish Network, DirecTV and over 500 cable systems.

John Abruzzi was a fictional character in Prison Break and is one of the Fox River 8.
- Sylvia Abruzzi - Wife
- Nicole Abruzzi - Daughter
- John Abruzzi, Jr - Son
John Abruzzi held the title of the mob boss in the feared Chicago Mafia before he was incarcerated. He is convicted and sentenced based on the witness testimony of Otto Fibonacci who saw Abruzzi order another mobster to shoot and kill two men. Abruzzi ordered a hit on Fibonacci, who was entered into the witness protection program by the government, while Abruzzi was sentenced to 120 years without parole.
Season 1
As a former Chicago mob boss, Abruzzi enjoyed celebrity status amongst the prisoner population at Fox River. He ran Prison Industry (PI), an internal work program for the convicts, and was both highly respected and feared by the rest of the cons inside Fox River's walls, and his inmate number is 81004. His mobster status also allowed him to enjoy a certain extent of autonomy and freedom inside the prison's walls, especially from the head of the internal correctional officers Captain Brad Bellick, who was on the payroll of Abruzzi's associates. Abruzzi proved that he would go to great lengths to find Fibonacci, even cutting two of Michael Scofield's toes off trying to extract Fibonacci's location from him. Abruzzi has also been known to have attempted to stop T-bag from having a sexual and violent interest in Scofield and Burrows. Eventually Abruzzi realized that Michael was not going to be easy to crack, so he decided to keep his enemy close and teamed up with Michael to break out of prison.
When T-Bag told his cousin James about the break out plan, Abruzzi ordered one of his men on the outside to make James disappear for a week. The kidnapping went bad, resulting in the death of both James and his son, who was, apparently, being used as a human shield. Abruzzi, despite being deeply saddened, had his men inside of the prison rough T-Bag up. Badly injured and fearing for his life, T-Bag finally agreed to back out of the escape plan. Abruzzi, recently finding religion as an outlet for his pain, decided not to kill him, this proved to be a big mistake, as T-Bag immediately took the opportunity to slash Abruzzi's throat.
Abruzzi was evacuated from Fox River by helicopter to receive treatment for his injuries. This complicates Michael's escape plan, as a plane Abruzzi owned was the planned getaway vehicle. Abruzzi however survived and rejoined the escape attempt, apparently a changed man. He later escaped with Michael, Lincoln Burrows and other inmates. During the escape, T-Bag handcuffed himself to Michael. However, Abruzzi used an axe to cut off T-Bag's hand, simultaneously taking his vengeance and ridding the group of T-Bag. Abruzzi was one of the group of five who was forced to run on foot after the plane left them behind.
Season 2
John Abruzzi's final stand.
On the morning after the escape, John Abruzzi found himself with his fugitive comrades, continuing to evade the authorities on foot. After narrowly passing a freight train to create more distance between them and the authorities, the group of five fugitives were trapped by an armed hunter who is aware of their fugitive status. Abruzzi quickly took matters into his hands by taking the hunter's daughter hostage. As the hunter lowers his weapon, they capture his SUV and continue to Oswego to find Michael's hidden cache in the cemetery where they all found a change of clothing. The fugitives went their separate ways soon after this.
Abruzzi met up with his family and together they planned to catch a cargo ship to Sardinia. Before he and his family could leave, however, Abruzzi is informed that Otto Fibonacci is staying at a motel outside of Washington D.C.. Abruzzi at first questions this but proceeds when the source is confirmed regardless of his wife's pleas. However, it turned out to be a trap set up by Agent Mahone and the FBI in an attempt to recapture him. Brazenly, Abruzzi walks out of the motel room with a gun in hand. Mahone states that Abruzzi must put the weapon down, stating that the men beside him are 'serious guys', and that they have instruction to shoot at the first sign of agression. Mahone exclaims "You're going back to Fox River today, or the morgue. That's your call. Put your hands behind your head and kneel." Abruzzi looks at him and scans the area before saying his final words, "I kneel only to God. I don't see him here."
Just as Abruzzi raises his gun in his final-stand, Mahone takes cover and watches on as the FBI team riddles Abruzzi with bullets, killing him.

Season 2
He is seen in later episodes by use of archive footage.
Season 4
John Abruzzi's photo appeared in Michael's dream during the episode Going Under. This is when he's talking with Charles Westmoreland.
Breakout Kings
6 years after Abruzzi's death, T-Bag escaped indirectly with the help of Abruzzi, killing the guard with a hidden blade that was underneath his prosthetic hand, the one that had replaced the hand he originally had before it being chopped off by Abruzzi with an axe.

- Abruzzi is the first of the Fox River Eight to be intercepted and killed.
- Abruzzi as he appeared in his earlierst flashback (Brother's Keeper), he also dies like that in his last appearance (First Down).
- Abruzzi hated Patoshik, but said it would be alright that he was in the escape plan. Not much later, Abruzzi did wanna get rid off Haywire, which worked.
- Ironically enough, Abruzzi died earlier then Patoshik.
- Abruzzi is the first main character who was nearly killed by T-Bag.
- Therefor, Lechero is the first main character to be killed by T-Bag.
- Abruzzi 'swore to God' that he'd rather die than go back to Prison, this foreshadows his death and final stand out with the FBI.
John Abruzzi cutting off T-Bag's hand.
- John Abruzzi is still responsible after his death for the following people who would be still alive:
- Abruzzi has never met Lechero, Sophia, Whistler, Gretchen and Self.
- Abruzzi was the first main character to get being replaced. This was because Theodore Bagwell attacked him, and thus his main character status was taken over by Benjamin Miles Franklin.
- Abruzzi is thus, because of this, the first former main character.
Abruzzi and Tweener were the only Fox RIver 8 members who never killed anyone directly onscreen. But due to Abruzzi's status as a mobster boss, it can be assumed that he did so at one point or another.

Hi My hard disk is 80 gb ide.When i use the hard disk as the data storage only it shows full 80 gb, and am able to store data properly,except for the pc slows down a bit when this particular hard disk is connected.The main problem is i am not able to boot from this hard disk when i install the operating system winxp on this 80 gb ide.It says boot failure. I tried fixmbr, fixboot & formatting,but nothing else.Can anybody figure out what could be the problem of is it my hard disk has gone bad.Pls help me on this and thanx for replying.
Poor performance and a strange behavior of an IDE disk may be related to the master/slave jumper, which should be properly configured on the disk itself.
For example, if you have an IDE disk and a CD/DVD connected to the same IDE cable, the IDE disk should be set as the master device and the CD/DVD as the slave device.
If the IDE disk is the only device connected to the IDE bus, it should be configured as CS (cable select).
The exact position of the master/slave jumper is vendor-specific and you need to check carefully the label on the disk for detailed information about how to set the master/slave jumper.

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. - The men's tennis team dropped a 4-1 decision to 18th-ranked Florida on Friday indoors at the Roberta Alison Baumgardner Tennis Facility.

Delaware County has so many places to host your simple or grand picnic plans. Here are seven settings to consider for your gathering of family and friends now that picnic season has arrived.
Picnics are personal
Whether you plan a fancy feast or simple pot luck style dining, choosing the right place is as important as the ease of gobbling your culinary delights. That's because picnics are incredibly personal in order that it please everyone who participates. So plan well and consider what outdoors activities and settings that will best please all of your group as you consider one of these Delco seven.
Largest of this group is certainly Ridley Creek State Park with 14 distinct picnic areas and ample activity options from horseback riding to biking, hiking, fishing and sports within its vast 2600 acres. Tyler Arboretum may seem an unusual location, however, picnic tables are comfortably offered among Tyler's mature shrubs and trees. Young and old will delight in the tree stand styled treehouses and miles of trails within its 650 forested acres. Clayton Park takes a shaded approach to the 11 picnic groves offered for your gathering. Additionally, Clayton features trails, playing fields, stream and even a nine-hole golf course within its 170 acres. Smedley Park has similar scenic woodlands that border open fields, baseball fields and plenty of picnic areas near to playgrounds. There are also hiking paths and stream across its 141 acres to burn some energy. Rose Tree Park rolls its way into fifth spot for this list with its hills and valleys that contain an amphitheater for summer events. Picnic areas and benches abound, as well as, plenty of land to stretch your legs. Glen Providence Park, also in Media, shares a hilly setting to that of Rose Tree. More compact with just 25 to Rose Tree's 120 acre spread, Glen Providence features majestic trees, bird sanctuary, pond and water fall should you choose this setting for your picnic adventure. Last on our list of seven is Upland Park with 60 acres of parkland and play areas. Ample parking is available to bring your group here to its picnic areas, playground or softball fields. Upland's acreage should easily help to burn off some calories as it offers another picnic setting for fun. So plan, pack, and play.

Short-chain quinones are described as potent antioxidants and in the case of idebenone have already been under clinical investigation for the treatment of neuromuscular disorders. Due to their analogy to coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), a long-chain quinone, they are widely regarded as a substitute for CoQ10. However, apart from their antioxidant function, this provides no clear rationale for their use in disorders with normal CoQ10 levels. Using recombinant NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase (NQO) enzymes, we observed that contrary to CoQ10 short-chain quinones such as idebenone are good substrates for both NQO1 and NQO2. Furthermore, the reduction of short-chain quinones by NQOs enabled an antimycin A-sensitive transfer of electrons from cytosolic NAD(P)H to the mitochondrial respiratory chain in both human hepatoma cells (HepG2) and freshly isolated mouse hepatocytes. Consistent with the substrate selectivity of NQOs, both idebenone and CoQ1, but not CoQ10, partially restored cellular ATP levels under conditions of impaired complex I function. The observed cytosolic-mitochondrial shuttling of idebenone and CoQ1 was also associated with reduced lactate production by cybrid cells from mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes (MELAS) patients. Thus, the observed activities separate the effectiveness of short-chain quinones from the related long-chain CoQ10 and provide the rationale for the use of short-chain quinones such as idebenone for the treatment of mitochondrial disorders.
