Hi darling and welcome to my website.Because the final users of penis enlargement results are mostly women I might as well named the website womenlib.com.Jelk,milking and similar massaging techniques.
"Jelqing (jelq) is a type of exercise to increase girth of the penis by increasing positive pressure in the penis. By rolling the fingers from the base of the penis toward the head with the penis mostly rigid, the blood flow pushes on the side of penis and is supposed to stretch the tissues. This technique, in principle, is a modification of an old technique of the penile vacuum device (penile pump), where, by placing the cylinder on the penis and by creating negative pressure, the tissues get expanded. There are not medical studies evaluating the effectiveness of either jelqing or the penile pump to increase girth of the penis."
This means 2 things:1)Jelq has no PERMANENT effect in neither length nor girth of the penis size exactly as Vacuum pumps dont,2)Jelq has to begin with no effect in penis length whatsoever.Even if Jelq is useless,that does not mean real penis enlargement cannot take place while using only your hands:
It consists on grabbing the penis with one hand,in such a way that your pinkie finger exercises pressure upon the glans (the head) of your penis,and all the other fingers press against the shaft of it,and once you grabbed it like this,you pull the hand away from the body,applying a tensile stress on the penis.
Do not be concerned about how exactly to grab the penis.Is a matter of experience.The idea is that you grab the penis in any way you find comfortable and stretch it by pulling away from the body.The gains will be linearly proportional to the amount of time that you hold the penis under tensile stress.Many people do it in bed ,one hour before going to sleep and one our before leaving bed.This system works,although slowly,is safe and obviously inexpensive.
You could achieve gains of less than 1/3 of an inch per year average if you pull 2 hours a day.Those gains will vary from individual to individual and their cumulative effect is felt after 10 or 15 years.This is obviously not a quick fix or even a reasonably fast method but it works as a lifetime quest,and as such it is being used by millions on a daily basis to ensure slow but sure gains.
It is essential to point out that the hand stretch does not work for everybody,apparently having to do with the personal ability to get a "good grip" that ensures that the force acting upon the penis is strong enough to be of any use.This ability is called also "good luck".
Here we come across the basic principle of results in penis enlargement,and it is "apply enough tensile force to stretch the penis during enough time and you will see results".
By now you must ask yourself if there is a stretching method that acts similarly to the stretching by hand,but with increased intensity,that is safe,and still much quicker than stretching by hand,that has been designed for standalone use(not after surgery) and does not have any of the drawbacks of the stretching devices discussed somewhere else (CLICK HERE).The answer here luckily is yes.
The SIZEWARRIOR penis traction system will do the job safely and at a much quicker pace.It has an attachment of the traction source to your penis which allows to use the maximal amount of force possible for the longest periods of time necessary.You will gain at least one inch in six months while training from 45 minutes a day,five times a week.The system includes everything needed to suceed:excelent steel gravitational traction source, the patented attachment device,and complete instructions with photographs that will put you in the right track fast to become a dream lover,and a truly self confident man in bed and everywhere else.With the SIZEWARRIOR penis stretching system I gained two inches in 9 months.
So you have three alternatives:
1)Accept your penis size as it is and look for your right sexual partner.
2)Use the hand stretching technique brought here for slow yet real results.
3)Use the SIZEWARRIOR stretcher for faster safe real penis enlargement.It worked for me,and thousands of others.
Whatever your decision,I certainly wish you luck,and the ability to change for the better things that can be changed,and accept all others,and most of all the wisdom to discern among them…

By Kasandra Martinson
FRESNO, Calif. --- As announced by the Tennis Recruiting Network, the Fresno State men's tennis team was ranked No. 4 in its Top 25 Mid-Major Recruiting Class poll by the organization this week.
The Bulldogs incoming class features Adam Glynn (Broadstone, Dorset, England), Youssef Hassan (Reading, England), Jakob Keppelmann (Reno, Nev.) and Euan McIntosh (Edinburgh, Scotland) who will be joining the team for the 2014-15 season.
"We're really excited about the group of guys coming in," said Fresno State head coach Evan Austin. "They're the type of team oriented kids who are going to help us compete for Mountain West championships on a yearly basis. I think every one of these guys are just scratching the surface in terms of their potential, and it's going to be up to us to really start putting the hard work in this coming fall."
After finishing the 2014 season with a 13-10 record and fifth place finish in the MW in just his second season at the helm of the men's tennis team, Austin is looking forward to adding fresh talent to the squad in hopes of competing for the programs fifth conference title.
"While it's a great accomplishment to have a highly ranked and talented recruiting class, our main focus will now be on developing these guys and helping them reach their goals both athletically and academically," added Austin.
BYU topped the 25 team list with a four-man recruiting class while Tulsa and UNC Wilmington rounded out the top three. As the reigning MW champions, Boise State was the only other conference foe to earn this honor with a No. 6 ranking.

There has been and probably always will be a huge helmet debate in this country. We have those who say they want the freedom of the wind in their hair and those who want the safety of a full face dot/Snell helmet.
There are a lot of lies in helmet land and we here today are going to dispel of a few of them.
But before we do, let's get something out there and understood. If you crash, you have a one in four chance of landing on your chin or face. One in four. That is not a lie that is the truth and a hard, solid fact. Wouldn't you rather have a solid chin bar there protecting your face from the pavement and painful injuries and then the subsequent reconstructive surgeries?
Another solid fact; states that have repealed their helmet laws see a marked increase in motorcycle head injuries and deaths. No lies, no fluff, just the plain and honest truth.
Now on to the helmets themselves. You have several types available. We'll start with half helmets. These typically have no face shield and are DOT certified only. They offer protection at the top of the head only. Ears and sides of riders' heads are exposed. Goggles or DOT glasses must be worn with them.
Three quarter helmets (3/4) are similar to half helmets but cover the ears and down to the neck. The face is open and exposed. A snap on face shield is available for these to protect from bugs and rain. DOT certification only.
Full face helmets. These cover your entire head and chin. They offer the best protection hands down. A full face shield snaps closed in cold or wet weather. A well-made full face has plenty of air vents to keep you cool in hot weather. Consequently you get what you pay for. If you buy a cheap full face, it's going to be put together badly and be a lousy, noisy helmet to wear and use. Ventilation will be poor and you'll be complaining how noisy it is. Make sure you check out helmet reviews wherever you can to see what brand works best for you. Full Face helmets are either DOT or DOT/SNELL certified. SNELL is a non-profit institute that has their own level of helmet protection certification that is supposedly superior to DOT (Department of Transportation) Do your research when looking into a full face helmet.
Let's dispel a few rumors. 'Full face helmets block your peripheral vision.' You usually hear this from the cruiser guys who don't want to wear a helmet, citing freedom etc. They've also never worn a full face helmet so just ignore it. Full face helmets do not block your peripheral vision at all. That's simply wrong and an excuse to not wear one.
'The non DOT beanie 'novelty' helmets are just as good as anything else out there.' Wrong. They are salad bowls at best. Those helmets have zero padding in them. If you fall and crash, hitting your head, absolutely expect brain damage. The padding is what protects you from serious life altering injury or death.

I use the Panasonic Adapter. I think it was about $20 on Amazon. I think the others work fine too. don't be disappointed when the lenses focus much slower. The high speed lenses are lucky to focus at all.

"The Bachelor" finale, featuring the polarizing Juan Pablo Galavis, came to a merciful close last night in one of ABC's most awkward and agonizing Bachelor runs yet. And the final rose goes to… Nikki – sort of.
Fox News on Monday exclaimed a collective reality show-style sigh of relief. "Whew. The worst – and most bizarre – season of 'The Bachelor' is finally over." Agreed.
If Juan Pablo had his haters before – people "behind their computers" as he said last night to host Chris Harrison – the hunky and dopey American-born Venezuelan better keep clear of anything with a keyboard for at least a few months.
In Monday night's episode, both of Pablo's final women, Nikki Ferrell and Clare Crawley, were left in tears on their last date as they individually tried to pry some resemblance of an emotional response out of Juan Pablo. No dice; Juan just did his typical snuggly, stare intently and furrow eyebrow thing while agreeing incessantly and offering nil in response.
His dismissive attitude was a train wreck to watch. As much as The Bachelor is reality television fluff – while only marginally touching on anything that has to do with relationship "reality,") – watching Clare get shelved and Nikki unenthusiastically agree to Juan Pablo's non-proposal was like rubbernecking at a traffic accident.
As both women met Juan Pablo at the very end, he simply stared at them with his beady eyes, forcing the gals to start the conversation and reveal the exact things that he should have been saying to them.
"I can't imagine spending my life without you," Nikki, 26, told Juan Pablo, clearly looking for that enormous meteorite of a diamond ring. "I love you."
"I can see you as a good stepmom for Camilla," Juan Pablo, 32, said in reply. "It's been a perfect time every time I'm with you."
Then it got uncomfortable, and stayed uncomfortable for the duration of the show, including the live reunion ceremony after.
"I have a ring here in my pocket and I'm not going to use it," Juan Pablo said. "I'm not 100 percent sure that I want to propose to you, but at the same time, I'm 100 percent sure that I don't want to let you go. I like you a lot. So, Nikki, will you accept my final rose?"
"I like you… a LOT."
Listen up Hallmark. Those were poetic words for the romantic ages that would melt any woman's heart.
Prior to Pablo's choice of Nikki however, Clare, who proved herself to be a much stronger person, turned the tables on Pablo's rejection, dissing him in a moment of clarity that had millions of viewers cheering her on.
"I appreciate you being here and trusting me all along," Juan Pablo told Clare. "But I have to follow what I think is best for me. I'll have to say goodbye to you."
Pablo went in for the hug, but Clare wasn't having it.
"This entire time I've stuck around because I believed in you," she said, fighting back tears. "I needed that reassurance [on our date last night] and I gave you that opportunity right then."
"I saved this moment for the man of my dreams, I thought that as you, I thought I knew what kind of man you were," she said, before doling out this doozy: "I would never want my children having a father like you."
Only confirming his flippant attitude, Juan Pablo smirked, turned around and under his breath muttered, "I'm glad I didn't pick HER."
During the live "After the Rose" ceremony, Chris Harrison offered Clare the choice to see Pablo again. She refused, stating she had her moment of closure when she told him off months prior. "I don't want to sit here on this couch and get fed anymore BS," Clare said as the studio audience applauded.
As Juan Pablo and Nikki sat together during the after-show, the mood was equally discomfited and emotionless.
For Nikki's sake, Harrison tried valiantly to pry an "I love you" out of Juan Pablo, who evidently in four months hasn't decided yet if his admission of "I like you a lot" could evolve into something more.
"So you love her?" host Chris Harrison asked.
"I'm not going to answer that question," Juan Pablo said. "People don't understand this is real life. We're very happy and we are so done with the show."
"So….you're not gonna tell us you love her?" Chris asked, obviously baffled. "This is what this show is about. We're on this journey with you. This is your time to shine. You can express your feelings."
Juan Pablo continued his amazingly bolshie mannerisms, calling Harrison out – twice – for interrupting him, telling Chris that there was no "big surprise" as Pablo evidently had built up to the show's producers, complaining about viewers' comments to him these past four months, forcing Harrison to explain what "Don't bite the hand that fed you" meant, and all the while leaving Nikki to awkwardly defend her man.
At the end, as many thought, Atlanta assistant district attorney and fan-favorite Andi, who most famously told Pablo she would ring his neck if he said "It's OK" to her one more time, will be the next Bachelorette.
So let's hear your take on this season's show. Sound off in comments below.

Quintette du Hot Club de France: Limehouse Blues
Limehouse Blues
Quintette du Hot Club de France
The Definitive Django Reinhardt, Vol. 4 (JSP 344)
Stéphane Grappelli (violin), Django Reinhardt (guitar), Joseph Reinhardt (guitar), Pierre 'Baro' Ferret (guitar),
Lucien Simoens (bass).
Composed by Philip Braham & Douglas Furber.
Recorded: Paris, May 4, 1936
Rating: 95/100 (learn more)
The Quintet of the Hot Club of France played a lot of songs about places they had never visited ("Chicago", "Charleston", etc.), but "Limehouse Blues" was about London and presumably all of the members had been there and knew that neighborhood. The Quintet recorded "Limehouse" twice in just under 8 months (both versions appear on the above CD) and the differences between them are quite astonishing. The first version was made for Decca in October 1935 and it moves along at a staid medium tempo and the solos are well-played but not too exciting. Something must have happened in the 8 months before the Quintet recorded the song again for HMV, for this time the tempo is considerably faster and the feeling is much rougher. Django's guitar murmurs a few dissenting thoughts during the relatively calm first chorus, but as the solos approach, Django and Stephane seem to momentarily fight over who will get the first solo. Stephane plays the solo while Django pushes the intensity with the guitars. To my ears, Stephane seems hemmed in by the simple chord sequence and his phrases, while of varied length, seem to all sound the same. Django has no such problem with the chords and he fires off a brilliant solo, using octaves and chorded passages to set off his ideas. As the solo progresses, his technique seems less polished as his octaves have a rough edge to them. In the ensemble chorus that follows, Django fills with reckless abandon. When Stephane takes back the solo spotlight, he's found his inspiration again, and in the course of his solo, he presages the descending ensemble part recorded by the Benny Goodman Quartet on "Avalon" in the following year. Was Benny listening to the Hot Club records in his off-hours?

I've seen the way you look at me.
I've seen the way you stare.
I know that deep inside you want
To run your fingers through my hair.
But that thought makes you uncomfortable
And that thought makes you sick inside.
You want to run away and scream.
You want to run away and hide.
But instead of understanding me
And instead of asking yourself why.
You just torment me day and day
And make me want to die.
I didn't mean to make you feel like that
And I didn't mean to make you cry,
And I hope that as you read this dear
You will understand why...
Why I have done what I've done
And why I had to go.
Don't cry for me, I know you won't!
Just let your spirit show...

Obispo Theatre
993 Monterey Street,
San Luis Obispo,
1 person favorited this theater
Showing 26 - 28 of 28 comments
I miss the Obispo. I now teach film, and I saw the movies of my youth (without knowing who Samuel Fuller and Nicholas Ray were) at the Obispo, the Fremont, and the Elmo (the Flea Bag). I wish someone would post a photograph. My mother took me to my first movie in a stroller—Fremont, house of dreams.
The Obispo, as I remember it, was not large. When I was a student at Cal Poly I saw "The Godfather", "Gone With the Wind" and "Two-Lane Blacktop" here and it was still a single screen then. The fire would have been about 3 years later. I remember vsiting the area again after the fire and there was not much left on the lot. There was another theater in the area as well called the Madonna Plaza 3 which played "The French Connection". Interestingly, this film's composer and Cheech and Chong appeared on campus. Admission: $1.00.
For some years the vertical sign from the Obispo was stored outside behind the Central Coast (formerly Pismo) Theatre in Pismo Beach. It's no longer there, though, and I have no idea what happened to it.

If you're a fan of TV BBQ competitions, you'll be excited to hear that Johnny Trigg, one of the country's most acclaimed competitors who has been featured on BBQ Pitmasters, will be in downtown Parker over the Labor Day weekend for the 2014 Smokin' BrewBBQ.
The celebrity chef, who is known as the godfather of BBQ, was able to make the Parker date, thanks to a change in schedule for a Nevada BBQ cookoff and a persistent invitation from Jim Chincholl, a master judge and member of the CCV Rotary Club of Parker that hosts the annual competition.
"Having the actual godfather of barbecue come to our event, to see him and meet him in person is pretty cool for BBQ fans," Chincholl said.
The Smokin' Brew is just one of about 1,000 competitions held nationwide each year and one of the 40 to 45 competitions Trigg and his wife, Trish, will compete in this year as the Smokin' Triggers.
This charity event offers $8,500 in prize money and the Smokin' Triggers will compete against 50 other teams, including five or six pastRocky Mountain BBQ Association Team of the Year Champions and the Kansas City Barbeque Society's Team of the Year for 2013.
The Smokin' Brew BBQ is sanctioned by the Kansas City Barbeque Society and will be held at Parker Station, 19751 E. Mainstreet, beginning at 4 p.m. Friday, Aug. 29. The festivities will conclude with an awards ceremony at 5 pm on Sunday, Aug. 31, after the judging of entries.
The event is free, although tickets must be purchased for food and drink. Proceeds benefit local and international charities, including Project Sanctuary, Douglas County Support Center, Parker Task Force and the Women's Crisis Center, as well as the Cherry Creek Valley Rotary Club of Parker's educational and international programs.
In addition to seeing some top BBQ chefs from across the country, guests can enjoy diverse music provided by locally- and nationally-known groups. John Diak, Parker Towncouncilman and Rotary member worked hard to get a variety of music for the festival this year. His involvement with the emerging Parker Arts district encouraged him to include not only well known local acts but have Syke 96, winner of Arvada's Jam Out Hunger Battle of the Bands competition strut their stuff for the younger BBQ adventurers. Skye 96 performs Friday 5 p.m. to 6 p.m., followed by the Indulgers, a well known Celtic band who will play from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. On Saturday, Parker's own Blinker Fluid will take to the stage from noon to 3 p.m., followed by nationally-known Catfish Kray Blues Band, who will play from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m., and then Lewis and Floorwax Groove Hawgs, who will perform from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday's final day will feature Viretta from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and Black Jack Canyon Band from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.
The ever popular cow pie bingo is happening on Sunday at 2 p.m. when Bessie the cow will take to the field and make some lucky ticket holder very happy. A donation of $10 could win you $10,000. A 50 X 40 grid will be painted on the ground surrounded by a fence. A cow will be led onto the grid to do it's "business". The owner of the square with the majority of the Cow Pie will win half the amount raised in sold tickets, up to $10,000.

Is there in-game chat on multiplayer?
is it possible to chat to other players in-game? if so, how? thank you.
It depends...you can text chat with other players in a multiplayer game. SHIFT+TAB toggles the chat line, ESC cancels the chat line, and TAB cycles the chat between team/enemy/all. SHIFT+1 through 4 will also store and recall up to 4 custom messages.
If it's voice chat you want, none of the multiplayer games in the series (XvT/BoP and XWA) support it, but a third-party application called TeamSpeak is popular for this purpose. :)

Jun 27, 2011, 05.36 PM | Source: PTI
State run oil and gas PSU Gujarat State Petroleum Corporation (GSPC) today hiked the price of compressed natural gas (CNG) by Rs 3.25 per kg, impacting industry and households in the state.
"The hike of Rs 3.25 per kg in CNG prices comes into effect from today. CNG shall now be available at Rs 40.25 per kg at our 110 gas stations across Gujarat," a GSPC official told PTI.
Earlier in May, the state PSU had raised prices of CNG from Rs 34.45 per kg to Rs 37 per kg, citing non-allocation of gas by the Centre from KG-D6 reserves as the reason for hike.
In the past one year, CNG prices in Gujarat have risen by over 35%, industry sources said.
Another city gas distributor (CGD), Adani Gas, that has operations in Ahmedabad and Vadodara, has also raised the prices of natural gas.
"Adani gas has hiked the price of CNG by Rs 2.50 per kg taking the price of natural to Rs 40.50 per kg. The hike comes into effect from today," a top company official said.
The company operates with a network of 54 CNG stations, 47 in Ahmedabad and seven in Vadodara, he said.
GSPC is amongst the seven city gas distributors along with Gujarat Gas Company, Adani Gas Limited, Charotar Gas Sahkari Mandli, Sabarmati Gas, Vadodara Municipal Corporation, HPCL (has CNG stations only), operating in Gujarat.
Guj State Petro stock price
On June 24, 2016, Gujarat State Petronet closed at Rs 132.75, down Rs 1.2, or 0.9 percent. The 52-week high of the share was Rs 153.50 and the 52-week low was Rs 108.00.
The company's trailing 12-month (TTM) EPS was at Rs 7.89 per share as per the quarter ended March 2016. The stock's price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio was 16.83. The latest book value of the company is Rs 72.21 per share. At current value, the price-to-book value of the company is 1.84.

On Sunday afternoon, NFL draft prospect and hopeful DE Michael Sam said that he was gay, which received a strong amount attention the last two days. The San Francisco 49ers released a statement on Twitter from General manager Trent Baalke on Sam.
"The 49ers commend Michael for the courage he has displayed as he continues to pursue his NFL career. We have and will continue to evaluate him as we do every eligible player, which is always based on their projected contribution to our team on and off the field."
Sam had 11.5 sacks with the Missouri Tigers in his senior year for 2013. He initially told his teammates before season started that he was gay as it wasn't an issue among the locker room.
If the 49ers drafted Sam, he would be a pass rushing specialist to compliment backup OLB Corey Lemonier on the depth chart. With Tank Carradine and Quinton Dial expected to contribute on the defensive line, they don't necessarily need any upgrades from the front-four. At 6-2, 255 pounds, he would receive only a handful of snaps on obvious passing downs as a 3-4 OLB. Sam is projected to be a mid-round pick and he could be taken in the third round at the earliest.
With the 49ers having other needs from WR to CB, it is unlikely the team will need an outside linebacker unless they feel there should be an upgrade over Dan Skuta, who played well as a backup. Before the 2013 season started, the 49ers traded OLBs Parys Haralson and Cam Johnson for seventh round draft picks in 2014 and 2015, respectively.

My second wedding fayre
So last Sunday I exhibited at my second wedding fayre and I think I am getting the hang of it a bit more now!! This fayre was a last minute booking as I was contacted via Twitter on Monday and asked if I'd like to exhibit the following Sunday. I had been to the venue before for work meetings and work parties so I knew what it was like and was therefore keen to do the fayre. So despite the fact that this would mean three fayres on three Sundays in a row I agreed to going.
The fayre was held at the Holiday Inn, Royal Victoria in Sheffield.
This beautiful grade 2 listed building is in the city centre and would make a perfect venue for anyone wanting a city centre wedding with an historical atmosphere. The elegant ballroom is stunning and I personally believe that this would be the perfect venue for a vintage themed wedding. Imagine 1940's style vintage tea parties.
We arrived in good time to set up our stand. This time we were a bit more organised. We put prices on all of our products so people could see how much we were charging. This seemed to work well as the brides seem to be pleasantly surprised at how reasonable our prices were. We also had clip boards so that we could access order forms and mailing lists quickly. Also holding a clip board and pen made me feel much more professional. Plus I like to keep my hands busy so this was perfect for me!! Our stand was placed at the back of the room in the corner but it was actually quite a good location as everyone had to walk past us in order to go and view the ceremony room. Again I took my poor hubby along with me. He was my fetcher and carrier for the day but also answered a few questions about hair accessories which I'm sure he revelled in!!
I did pick up a few tips from the other exhibitors. I noticed that people were standing beside their stand and handing out their leaflets to people as soon as they came up to the stand. They would also start talking to them straight away. I took this on board and it seemed to work well. We also made the decision that if people were looking for a different colour or style to what we had on the day we would take their details and contact them with ideas of the products we could get. Again this worked better than asking people to e-mail us.
So all in all I think this wedding fayre was more of a success than the previous week and I really enjoyed the day. I wasn't as nervous and felt a lot more comfortable talking to other exhibitors and potential customers. I am hoping that for my wedding fayre next Sunday I will be even better.
Just a quick mention for some fabulous companies who were also there on the day:
Kurly Bird Events – to help with your entire event management needs. http://www.kurlybirdevents.co.uk/index.html
Reflections photography – for beautiful wedding photos
Love in a mist – for beautiful venue styling
If anyone came to see us on the day I hope you enjoyed the fayre. If you missed us we will be exhibiting at the Glasshouse, Doncaster on Sunday the 11th March so come and see us there.

The problem here is that what others think strange is quite normal for many of us, like why shy at one drain cover and not another is there something they can hear, why shy at a red bus of the same make as a blue bus, a horse runs away and shies away from hi-viz equipment bright yellow but not the orange, why a horse neighs and shy away from places where someone was killed in Sutton Park even when rider does not know weird, only found out later by talking to a historian of the park.

Strangely enough the only thing Bracken ever spooked at was a live Great Dane, and I was so unprepared for it I almost came off, as she span round and started cantering off in the opposite direction, lol !!
Grouse would spook at anything, a leaf, a pebble, and he wasn't over keen on buses....

text: Dating back to the 2009 campaign when Rashard Mendenhall was still with the Pittsburgh Steelers, the running back hasn't topped 4.1 yards per carry in a season. Currently, he is averaging a career-worst 3.2 yards on his 69 carries. Meanwhile, Arizona Cardinals teammate Andre Ellington sports a sparkling 6.7 yards-per-carry average. However, it's a small sample size with Ellington, because he only has 18 carries this season. Is it possible that he could carve out a bigger niche?

Flash Review, 1-4: Extraordinary Things
Morris's Hardy Nut
By Jordan Winer
Copyright 2008 Jordan Winer
BERKELEY -- The brotha' in the tutu has biceps bigger than my thigh. The sets are an acid trip mix of Roy Lichtenstein and Archie Comics. And the teenage daughter is humping everything that moves.
This ain't granny's Nutcracker, it's Mark Morris's "The Hard Nut," playing at Zellerbach Hall in Berkeley over the holidays, and it's a trip. Though it follows the usual story (young girl, party, fever, cool mysterious uncle gives her nutcracker, she has crazy dreams of Nutcracker prince who looks mysteriously like her uncle and sweeps her off her feet, throw in enough symbolism to keep Freud and Jung reeling for weeks -- then she wakes, and in some way has crossed over to adulthood), "The Hard Nut," danced by the Mark Morris Dance Group, has a style all its own and that is its great gift to the world.
I took my six-year-old son and he was absorbed the whole time. His favorite part was not the amazing fireworks of glittery snow thrown in the air by a million criss-crossing dancers, but the heartbreaking pas de deux "when the uncle danced with the nutcracker," which to me was a great image of an older man confronting his younger self.
It was an amazing evening over all. A special thrill was seeing Berkeley native (and Berkeley High Drama alumnus) Sam Black dance many ensemble parts, including a sugar plum fairy.
Speaking of that posse...wow. They enter, scores of them, arms swinging like apes, marching in like oompa loompas and proceed to twist and turn and spin in mesmerizing waves as the befuddled Queen looks for her daughter. The fairies lay on the ground grabbing hands to ankles and turn and turn and turn.
The suave uncle was the most memorable figure. When he enters the rollicking holiday party (at which Morris himself plays a swaggering lush snaking everyone's drinks and dressed in polyester like Herb Tarlick in WKRP in Cincinatti) he immediately grabs attention with his debonair white streak in his hair and smooth stride.
There were traditional moments too, such as when the prince and the little girl finally dance together, lifting each other and being lifted and flown by others, until this classical moment is broken too when they fully make out with each other. I don't remember that from the SF Ballet version I was dragged to when I was six.
What makes "The Hard Nut" work so well, so seamlessly, is how very modern or popular dance moves -- let's say the Mashed Potato or the Thizzle dance when the Christmas party gets a little drunken and crazy -- flow seamlessly into the ballet. Morris does this not by morphing or melding one into the other, but by simply letting different physical languages butt up against each other. Far from being jarring, these juxtapositions are in fact a bracing demonstration of how all dance has but one end: to express something so essentially human that it is beyond words.
So thank you Mark Morris, my son Dash loved the show and now wants to take ballet.
Probably because of that guy in the tutu.
Jordan Winer teaches Drama at Berkeley High School, and has danced with Sommer Ulrichson's company and performed in plays and musicals locally.

If you feel that the facts are less than sufficient to answer the question completely, state what additional pieces of information you would need to know to answer the question completely.
In 1987, Michael Berard was a student at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. lb supplement his income, Berard decided to go into the business of designing and selling Tshirts. During 1987, Berard devised a T- shirt design that he planned to sell as a souvenir of Myrtle Beach. That design depicted a beer can with a red, white and blue label. The words on the can did not refer to beer, however, but only to Myrtle Beach. In 1988, Berard incorporated Venture Marketing, Inc., (Venture) in order to manufacture and wholesale his T-shirts. Venture marketed the Myrtle Beach T- shirts through L & L Wings, Inc., (Wings) which operates a number of retail beach stores at Myrtle Beach, South Carolina and at other beaches. Wings purchased over 20,000 shirts from Venture. In 1989 Anheuser-Busch, Inc., brought a trademark infringement action against Venture and Wings. Anheuser-Busch alleged that the T-shirt design was confusingly similar to the Budweiser beer label, a registered trademark which AnheuserBusch had used on its own line of T-shirts and other apparel. For example, Anheuser-Busch has produced a T-shirt bearing the Budweiser label, the words. "Trap Skeet," and a drawing of shotgun shells and skeet. It has also used the label in promotions affiliated with various geographical sites. Anheuser-Busch brought a trademark infringement suit against Berard in which it complained that the Myrtle Beach T-shirt infringed its trademarks because consumers were likely to believe the T-shirt was sold or sponsored by Anheuser-Busch. The court in that case concluded that consumer confusion was unlikely based on a number of conspicuous differences between the T-shirt design and the Budweiser label. First, the T-shirt design makes no reference of any sort to Anheuser-Busch or Budweiser. By contrast, the Budweiser label displays a number of prominent indications of the product's source or sponsor: the name "Budweiser" flanked on either side by the word "genuine"; the geographic designation "Anheuser-Busch, Inc., St. Louis, Mo."; the letters "AB" for Anheuser-Busch; and the Anheuser-Busch trademark depicting an eagle in the middle of the letter "A." With respect to all of these, the T-shirt design either omits them entirely or replaces them with references to the beach. (see ILLUSTRATION) The T-shirt design replaces the Budweiser name with the words "Myrtle Beach"; substitutes the words "Myrtle Beach, S.C." for "Anheuser-Busch, Inc., St. Louis, Mo."; and replaces the letters"AB" with "SC." In addition, the T- shirt eliminates the Anheuser- Busch trademark "A" and omits the word "genuine." Second, the T-shirt replaces the Budweiser label's descriptions of the beer with analogous language descriptive of the beach. The Budweiser label reads as follows:
"This is the famous Budweiser beer. We know of no brand produced by any other brewer which costs so much to brew and age. Our exclusive Beechwood Aging produces a taste, a smoothness, and a drinkability you will find in no other beer at any price."
On the Venture Marketing T-shirt design, these sentences are replaced with a description of the beach: "This is the famous beach of Myrtle Beach, S.C." Similarly, the descriptive words at the bottom of the Budweiser label-- announcing that the beer is "Brewed by our original process from the Choicest Hops, Rice and Best Barley Malt" -are replaced in the T-shirt design with words proclaiming that "Myrtle Beach contains the Choicest Surf Sun, and Sand." The T-shirt design incorporates its own beach slogans in place of the Budweiser beer slogans. The Budweiser label includes the slogan "King of Beers" under the Budweiser name. On the T-shirt, this is replaced with the words "King of Beaches." In addition, the T-shirt mimics another Budweiser slogan, "This Bud's for You," with its own slogan, "This Beach is for You."
Michael Berard admits
that he patterned the T-shirt's beer label after the basic Budweiser format.
He says it is his intent in creating the T-shirt design was to parody the
Budweiser beer label and that "his parody is entitled to First Amendment
protection." Michael Kroshinsky, one of the wholesale purchasers of Michael's
T-shirts, says that his initial reaction to the T-shirt was that it 1.
a copy of a Budweiser shirt." The court in that suit said that Michael
was not liable for trademark infringement because there was no likelihood
of confusion. Michael has continued to make T-shirts with the Budweiser
"parody" logo, and opened a shop in New York in January 1996. He's already
sold 10.000 shirts this year.
Illustration 1:
T-Shirt Design
Question 1. [20 points, 20 minutes] Is Michael entitled to any First Amendment protection for his "parody." If so, why? If not, why not?
Question 2. [50 points, 1 hour] Assuming that Anheuser-Busch wants to bring suit again in July 1996 -- in the Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York - - against Michael, this time for dilution of a famous mark under Section 43(c) of the Lanham Act, state what A-B needs to prove in order to get a preliminary injunction and predict whether the court will issue one, including an explanation of why or why not.
Question 3. [20 points, 20 minutes] Suppose A-B learns that Michael plans to file an application to register his T-shirt design as a trademark in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office this summer? Assuming that A-B is foreclosed from arguing that the marks are confusingly similar, will the trademark examiner reject the application under Section 2? Advise Anheuser
Busch of how to it should go about attempting to prevent the registration and predict the likelihood that it will be successful.
Question 4. [10 points] Below is the cartoon Dilbert. Assuming Dilbert follows the salesman's request, is his company liable under Section 43(a) of the Lanham Act? If so, for what?

Cool PHP Demos in NetBeans
By johnc on Oct 01, 2008
I've been looking at the excellent work that people have been doing at the NetBeans PHP Blog and especially at the excellent screencasts and video tutorials that Petr Pisl has been putting out. He's got a Demo on using class property variables and a great demo about developing WordPress plugins with NetBeans. This along with Roman's slightly outdated but still great PHP Editor Demo gives you a nice overview of the PHP functionality that you can watch while drinking your morning coffee.

Maintain Snow Equipment with Ventrac's Winter Service Checklist
Ventrac tractors and attachments are designed to work hard through the winter cold and snow. But prolonged exposure to salts, deicers and other corrosive agents can cause steel to rust, aluminum to oxidize and electrical connections to corrode. This exposure can ultimately reduce performance and shorten the life of your equipment.
Our new videos highlight key areas where easy maintenance can be very beneficial to operating your Ventrac equipment and to keep it working for you in the harsh cold months and beyond.
The video was produced in two parts, so be sure to take view Part 1 and Part 2. Chad Nolt, Ventrac's service manager, will walk you through the whole process, demonstrating and pointing out the areas on the equipment that need that extra attention. It covers Pre-Season, between snow events and Post-Season maintenance of the tractor as well as the blade, snowblower and broom attachments.
Here are a few key-points mentioned in the video….watch for much more information!
- Wash off corrosive materials
- Inspection of belts
- Apply grease to key areas
- Touch up any paint to prevent future rusting
- Spray attachments with an outdoor rust preventative
- Check that devices are functioning properly
PROTECT your investment and reduce maintenance costs by following our easy checklist to extend the life of your Ventrac.
Here's a peek at the checklist!

Keep yourself warm this fall with this black cashmere jacket ($91). The rich ambery colors of the full lining (and the matching handmade frog closures) should add a glow to any gray day . . . though we don't imagine the long sleeves and warm material will hurt, either. Pair with shoes that click against the floor to ensure lots of admiring glances as you cross the lobby to the elevator.

I'm just returning from a five-day trip to visit my parents. (I'm blogging from 30,000 feet in the air!) I realized as I was getting into the mindset of getting back to real life that I was afraid to look at (or even open) my to-do list.
That, my friends, is a very bad thing. If you're afraid to look at your to-do list than you're not going to be very productive. I actually thought about abandoning it and starting a new one.
But I faced down my fear. I realize it was a pretty mild fear, as these things go. But it reminded me of an adage that I have to tell myself on occasion, which is that the truth is the truth whether or not you know about it. It doesn't do you any good to not look at your financial data for fear of what you'll find, or not ask somebody an important question, for fear of what they'll tell you. The truth is the truth.
The same goes for my to-do list. I know that I was afraid that there were going to be things on it that I had completely forgotten to do. And there was one thing. But mostly I found I was able to cross a lot of stuff off, because I had accomplished it.
Right now, I'm in a bit of a quandary about how to keep track of my tasks. I'd been using Mark Forster's various methods. But he's in the process of developing a new one and somehow the knowledge of that made me feel disenchanted with my current use of his Autofocus system. I'm a bit fickle that way.
So as I explore new options (the latest one is Kanbanery), I'll post here what I find. Thankfully, December should be a little less hectic than October and November were, so I feel I'll have time to do a little more than keep my head above water.
And the first step was facing down my to-do list a couple of hours ago.
Tagged with: mark forster, personal kanban, time management, to-do list
Oh, how I get that! I have an app on my phone that I use as a to-do list … and it shows me a badge for my "overdue" tasks. That little number climbed higher … and higher … until I didn't even want to open it!
I settled for making it a nightly ritual to go in, move whatever I didn't get done that day to the next (or a more appropriate day), and therefore never have the little tag.
It might just be a mental trick, but it keeps me opening that list every night!

Thanks for your comment, Colleen! I'm all for mental tricks (and nightly rituals) that keep us doing the stuff we need to do!

Two gay men in Senegal are feeling the effects of harsh anti-gay laws in the country. According to the Associated Press on Feb. 1, a judge have sentenced the two men to six months in jail for committing "an improper or unnatural act with a person of the same sex."
It was a rare conviction but evidence that the country is serious about a penal code that calls for possible imprisonment for up to five years and fines of up to $3,000 for committing the act that has been deemed "unnatural".
The two men who were arrested after neighbors alerted police to their home, confessed to their sexual relationship in court on Friday (Jan. 31). They were then sentenced under the penal code and will be serving jail time. Although the sentencing was an example of discrimination against gays in the country, Senegalese President Macky Sall insists that gays are only prosecuted for breaking the law.
In this case, they did break the law, but the law itself has been disputed as discriminatory. Currently more than two-thirds of African countries outlaw consensual same-sex partnerships.
Back in November, five women were arrested for suspicion of violating the country's anti-gay law. Arrests have been on the rise in the Muslim-majority country since 2008.

Think your friends might be familiar with this merchant? Ask your friends on Facebook to see what they think.
Recently got married and booked the rentals for the men's bridal party through hunters. Absolutely terrible product and services, out of 7 people only 3 people received proper fitting suits. These were clearly not simple mistakes, they were not even close; a size 38 pants for someone who has worn 32 for the last 15 years, paired up with a small vest that could not be done up. Sizes were re-ordered and not all showed up on time for the wedding. No apology no nothing from the owner, just complete arrogance. On top of the wrong sizes we had buttons falling off, pant leg seams opening etc.. Complete garbage! When i called in to complain, the owner said when I returned the rentals we would work something out. Of course when i go in it is his day off... "he will call you right away this week" I called 3 times, he avoided me the whole time. So after 2 weeks I was finally in town on other business so I popped in. The owner then pretended like he did not know what I was there for, then said "well I can give you a $35.00 in store credit", yes THIRTY FIVE DOLLAR!! in store credit, after we just spent over $1500.00 on rentals that were a complete mess.. Best man never did get a proper fitting shirt or jacket, which I am sure they had something else that would have fit him on there shelf to use for our wedding night.. So after talking everything over the owner JOHN I believe is his name says, "well I got my money, doesn't matter to me" and the whole time kept his back to me and wouldnt even turn around and look at me. I guess there is nothing I can really do now but warn everyone else, do not do business at HUNTERS MENSWEAR in MOOSE JAW SK. I have since talked to 3 other people who had problems there in the past, and when I told the owner I would be sure lots of people hear about this his reply was "you wouldn't believe how many time I have been told that" so he himself admitted this is not the first time he has had a situation like this..

The "Castle" season finale should have bells ringing as Richard Castle's nuptials are only an episode away, but there might be a wrench thrown into the plans. Detective Kate Beckett divulges a secret that she already has exchanged vows to another man. The shocking season finale has fans on the edge of their seats wondering what the couple might do to make everything work out. This "Castle" spoiler is for the season finale and viewers who don't want to know more details should stop reading. According to the Huffington Post on Saturday, there is a solution, but it requires a favor be given to Beckett's soon-to-be ex-husband.
The intensity of Castle and Beckett's long-awaited wedding is almost here and the characters are having some last minute jitters, but nothing has people ready for Beckett's announcement that she once was married in Vegas. The trip was a drunken blur with current husband Rogan O'Leary (who is played by guest star Eddie McClintock) and he doesn't remember much. According to TV Guide, the man doesn't mind signing the papers to end the marriage, but he does ask for a favor first.
Looking to move on as quickly as possible, Castle and Beckett decide to go on the mission, but they didn't expect to see masked men, angry bikers and a bit of history from Beckett's interesting past. Hopefully the favor will be repaid in time to make sure the couple can be at the ceremony and live happily ever after!
As fans think about the season of "Castle" everyone realizes just how much the couple has grown together. Even a ridiculous oversight of being married for years shouldn't step in the way of true love, but that doesn't stop the angry bikers that need to be outmaneuvered in the finale episode of the season.
"Castle" airs on Monday night at 10 p.m. on ABC.

Jasmine Ash is a singer/songwriter residing in Los Angeles, California. A transplant of Portland, Oregon, Jasmine is an avid hiker, yoga practitioner and animal lover. Her effortless charm, gossamer vocals and stellar songwriting skills have been winning over local audiences and inducing smiles all over the world. The honesty of Jasmine's lyrics combined with her often quirky pop melodies have helped her to formulate an infectious sound that is uniquely her own.
A serendipitous meeting at a Los Angeles vegan restaurant between Jasmine and producer/writer Jacques Brautbar, resulted in a fast friendship. Their musical chemistry was solidified with "Starlight," their first collaboration in 2012. The rough production and unfinished lyrics of "Starlight" caught immediate attention from her current management, Black Unicorn Music, and Sync Agency.
Jacques brought in long time friend and fellow Phantom Planet band mate Sam Farrar (Maroon 5, Sara Bareilles) to finish production on the song, garnering the group's first TV placement on USA Network's Royal Pains.
"Working with Jasmine is always an effortless experience. I hesitate even using the word 'work'… it is more like, play, really. I know we are going to have a really fun time, and have an awesome song at the end of the day. In Jasmine Ash, I have found a creative partner for life." – Jacques Brautbar
The whimsical, enchanting love song, "Starlight" is currently being used in Ferrero Rocher's 2012, 2013 and 2014 TV campaign airing in the UK, US and Ireland. Her full-length record Beneath The Noise (produced and co-written by Jacques Brautbar and Sam Farrar) came out on Valentine's Day 2012. The record also featured songs like the retro, Motown influenced "Killer" (as heard on 90210 and Apple's tutorial for the iPad), the seductive, drum driven "Cut Up" (as heard on The Good Wife) and the alluring "Not All That I Am," which closes out the album.
Jasmine also wears the hat of front woman and songwriter for the indie/rock band Oh Darling. Oh Darling's music can be heard on numerous TV shows, in Films and ad campaigns, such as Disney's PROM, KIA, Bloomingdales, Drop Dead Diva and many more. The band was also selected to be part of Evian's "Live Young" campaign, supporting promotional efforts for the world's #1 brand of premium natural spring water throughout the L.A. area.
On top of her work with Oh Darling and her solo project, Jasmine is constantly creating and developing various projects. (babybats, Gold & The Invisible Girl, Sun Sun, and more).
I'm extremely fortunate to also be able to work with such talented people on a daily basis, including the wonderful members of my band in Oh Darling and Jacques Brautbar and Sam Farrar who produced and co-wrote my last record. This life is like a dream every day, because I am fortuitous enough to be able to do what I love. I've learned so much about my strengths and weaknesses over the past few years and every day just keeps getting better as I learn something new. - Jasmine Ash

Dutch-based BeBook has launched its portable eReader in the UK, offering compatibility with over 20 eBook formats and a large choice of online stores from which to buy eBooks. The eReader incorporates Vizplex technology and precise one-handed navigation to help users enjoy their library of best sellers, cult classics or the latest magazines.Read More
September 8, 2008 The electronic reader industry has promised a lot for a long time and despite bullish forecasts, has yet to make mainstream status. That may be about to change with Plastic Logic previewing a gamechanging new device at the DEMOfall 08 technology conference. With a large 8.5 x 11-inch form factor, the Plastic Logic reader is thinner than a pad of paper, lighter than many business periodicals, and offers a high-quality reading experience aimed at professional users and will be available in Q2, 2009. "Research confirms professionals read much more business content than recreational content. They require access to all formats of digital content at their fingertips, and want a large readable screen," said Plastic Logic CEO Richard Archuleta. Most significantly, the Plastic Logic display is flexible.Read More
May 12, 2008 Responsible for the first consumer application of an electronic paper display module when it teamed up with Sony to release the LIBRI e-Book reader in 2004, E Ink has now announced availability of its next generation segmented display cells (SDC).

December 3, 2007 Computer screens aren't really conducive to reading pages and pages of text so with the proliferation of online content has come new ways to view words electronically. E-paper is a display technology designed to mimic the appearance of ordinary ink on paper - even its flexibility - and according to new research, reading the news on e-paper is more environmentally friendly than viewing via PC. Interestingly, the study by the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm also showed that 30 minutes of reading an Internet newspaper has about the same environmental effect as reading a hard copy version.Read More
October 10, 2007 Fujitsu has displayed the latest incarnation of its electronic paper products at CEATEC in Japan. Having previously unveiled flexible color e-paper, this year the company has changed the form factor into an "e-reader" - a prototype content browser the size of an A5 sheet of paper that's lightweight, extremely portable and features a high-contrast, easy to read 4,096 color display with very long (up to 50 hours) battery life due to its ability to hold an image once it is displayed without drawing on any power.Read More
October 3, 2007 Many bibliophiles feel that paper is an irreplaceable medium, but the inexorable march of the digital age is bringing new products into the marketplace that bridge the gap between the traditional book and the sheer convenience of electronic storage. Sony has just released the upgraded second version of its Reader digital book - a compact, comfortable and lightweight viewing platform that allows you to carry up to 160 full novels around at any time.Read More

Good Food
(Posted by: krj99 on 09-29-2008 @ 9:28 AM)
We took an out of town guest to Hurley's for a good, low key dinner. This is fast becoming one of our go-to places to eat around Napa.
This is the second time we've eaten at Hurley's and while I was convinced that I would be more adventurous and try something new, I ended up getting the Wild Boar (their signature dish) again because I loved it so much the first time. We also ordered some Calamari to start with, which was really nothing extraordinary. I've honestly had better and I've had worse. I finished the meal with an Ice Cream Sandwich, which I thought was perfect considering how warm it was outside.
Sizing up the crowd, I couldn't easily tell if most of the patrons were locals or out of towners, but rest assured, this local will definitely be coming back!

Reviews for Breaded Ravioli
"I gave this recipe 4 stars only b/c I don't make the Italian salsa part of the recipe. However, we do enjoy the crispy outside of the creamy cheese -stuffed ravioli with a homemade marinara. I use a combination of Panko and seasoned bread crumbs and I have used a creamy Cesar dressing in place of the Italian with success. It is a simple and fairly quick meal."
"This was so easy and tastey! Really good for being healthy! We love Italian food but are trying to lose weight. I can't wait to make them again!"
"I've served the ravioli with marinara sauce.."
"I've made them with cheese ravioli, and I actually prefer them that way. Really delicious. Great as an appetizer or for lunch...my sister and I make these when we get together a lot!"
"[quote user="sharonanng"]Can this be made with cheese ravioli? Anybody ever try that?[/quote]I only use the cheese ravioli! And I've made it with all brands, store or regular and it always comes out great. When I feel lazy I dip them in jarred sauce. :)
Oh, and I've premade them up to the baking point and refrigerated them til game time, or whatever. I've also frozen them baked, and reheated them through on cookies sheets. Great little recipe.
Give them a try!"

John Brademas represented Indiana's Third District for 22 years (1959-81) in the U.S. House of Representatives. He was for the last four of those years, by appointment of Speaker Thomas P. "Tip" O'Neill, Majority Whip, the third ranking member of the Democratic leadership in the House. During his tenure, Brademas served on three Committees: Education and Labor, House Administration, and the Joint (House-Senate) Committee on the Library of Congress. As chief House sponsor of the Education for All Handicapped Children Act; Environmental Education Act; Library Services and Construction Act; Arts, Humanities and Cultural Affairs Act; Arts and Artifacts Indemnity Act; Museum Services Act; and Older Americans Comprehensive Services Act, Brademas earned a reputation as a leading force in the creation of legislation concerning education, arts and humanities, vocational rehabilitation, services for the elderly and disabled, and libraries and museums. Dr. Brademas is also proud to hold the distinction of being the first native-born American of Greek origin elected to Congress.
After leaving Congress, Brademas continued his distinguished career by pursuing his passion for education and serving as President of New York University from 1981 to 1992. During that time, he led the transition of NYU from a regional commuter school to a national and international residential research university.
Former Chairman of the President's Committee on the Arts and the Humanities, the National Endowment for Democracy, and the Board of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, Brademas is president of the King Juan Carlos I of Spain Center of New York University Foundation. He is a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and member of the National Academy of Education (USA), The Academy of Athens, European Academy of Science and Arts, and National Academy of Education of Argentina. In 2004 he was elected to the New York State Board of Regents by the New York State Legislature.
A graduate of Harvard, B.A., magna cum laude, he was a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford University, where he earned his Ph.D. He has been awarded honorary degrees by 52 colleges and universities, the most recent by the University of Oxford (2003). Among other honors he has received is the Hubert H. Humphrey Award of the American Political Science Association for outstanding public service by a political scientist.
I am honored to introduce the John Brademas Center for the Study of Congress at New York University's Robert F. Wagner Graduate School of Public Service.
The Center is one of the first of its kind to pursue a rigorous study of Congress as a policy-making institution. The Center will enhance both scholarly and public understanding of the role of Congress in writing the nation's laws and forging its policies.
With our separation-of-powers Constitution, Congress, unlike the legislative body in a parliamentary system, exercises great power in the making of national policy. But with 100 Senators and 435 Representatives and, customarily, no strict party discipline, Congress is not an easy institution to understand, even for the well-informed.
The Brademas Center will be a place to which we shall invite Presidents, Senators and Representatives—current and former, Democrats and Republicans; Cabinet Secretaries and other Executive Branch officials; judges; Congressional staffers; parliamentarians from other countries; journalists; and scholars and students to meet to discuss both the processes by which Congress shapes policy and substantive issues facing our nation. Through an interdisciplinary approach to the study of Congress, we seek to illumine both academic and public understanding of what the Constitution designates "The First Branch" of the Federal Government.
John Brademas
President Emeritus

The heritability of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is approximately 0.8. Despite several larger scale attempts, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have not led to the identification of significant results. We performed a GWAS based on 495 German young patients with ADHD (according to DSM-IV criteria; Human660W-Quadv1; Illumina, San Diego, CA) and on 1,300 population-based adult controls (HumanHap550v3; Illumina). Some genes neighboring the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with the lowest P-values (best P-value: 8.38 × 10(-7)) have potential relevance for ADHD (e.g., glutamate receptor, metabotropic 5 gene, GRM5). After quality control, the 30 independent SNPs with the lowest P-values (P-values ≤ 7.57 × 10(-5) ) were chosen for confirmation. Genotyping of these SNPs in up to 320 independent German families comprising at least one child with ADHD revealed directionally consistent effect-size point estimates for 19 (10 not consistent) of the SNPs. In silico analyses of the 30 SNPs in the largest meta-analysis so far (2,064 trios, 896 cases, and 2,455 controls) revealed directionally consistent effect-size point estimates for 16 SNPs (11 not consistent). None of the combined analyses revealed a genome-wide significant result. SNPs in previously described autosomal candidate genes did not show significantly lower P-values compared to SNPs within random sets of genes of the same size. We did not find genome-wide significant results in a GWAS of German children with ADHD compared to controls. The second best SNP is located in an intron of GRM5, a gene located within a recently described region with an infrequent copy number variation in patients with ADHD.

And by the way, I know that getting in front of people to talk about your business is key. Have you heard about the Oracle OpenWorld Unconference? Bring an approach, technique, or opinion -- and your laptop -- and present a one-hour session at Unconference in laid-back, interactive setting. Sign up now or at the show (first come, first served - look for the whiteboard in the OTN Lounge).
Thanks, we'll be seeing you.
