|Nuclear factor- kappa B (NF-κB) was first described as a transcription factor in B cells that binds to the enhancer element controlling immunoglobulin kappa light chain expression. Since its discovery in 1986, NF-κB and its role in inflammatory responses, immune reactions, and tumorigenesis has been extensively studied. Although the abnormal activation of the NF-κB pathway plays a key role in the pathogenesis of several cancers, inflammatory and autoimmune disorders, no specific NF-κB inhibitor is currently in clinical use or in clinical trial. Additionally, to date, efforts to target NF-κB signaling have been focused mostly on IKK2-based, in vitro screening. However, NF-κB pathway activates the expression of a large number of genes, and it is possible that distal downstream components of the NF-κB-signaling network could be targets for drug discovery. A strategy that could be used for revealing such NF-κB-linked targets is synthetic lethal screening. To test this hypothesis, we carried out a screen with an isogenic pair of cell lines derived from IL6-dependent T1165 mouse plasmacytoma. A derivative of T1165 cells stably expressing Kaposi's sarcoma associated herpesvirus encoded viral FLICE inhibitory protein (vFLIP) K13 possess increased NF-κB activity and is independent of IL6. We screened T1165-K13 and T1165-vector cells using libraries of small molecule compounds and identified Fenretinide as a compound with synthetic lethality against plasmacytomas with increased NF-κB activity.

Thanks to this year's frequent snowfall, the Blount County system is in danger of running out of snow days--days built into the yearly calendar that school can be closed as a result of inclement weather. In response to this, Director of Schools Rob Britt has issued a new policy stating that, rather than closing schools down completely, the possibility of a delayed start is likely.
Schools can be closed either one or two hours early. In the event of a one-hour delay, start times will be as follows:
K-5 (Elementary) schools: 8:45 a.m.
6-8 (Middle) schools: 9:20 a.m.
9-12 (High) schools: 9:30 a.m.
In the event of a two hour delay, the following start times will be in effect:
K-5 (Elementary) schools: 9:45 a.m.
6-8 (Middle) schools: 10:20 a.m.
9-12 (High) schools: 10:30 a.m.
The goals in changing this policy are twofold: first, it provides a safer way to predict the weather in Blount County without losing an entire day of educational benefits. Secondly, it prevents the system from running out of snow days, which could result in Saturday school, a shorter summer break, or (as in the past) assigning the first day of a new semester to count toward the previous semester's days.
This information can also be found on the Blount County website.

East Carolina's coaching staff, which won the National Fastpitch Coaches Association Mideast Region Coaching Staff-of-the-Year award last season, returns intact for 2012.
Feb. 7, 2012
GREENVILLE, N.C. - If one is good, then two are better and three must be great. Coming off an unprecedented two-year stretch, the East Carolina softball program will try to extend it to a three-season run this spring. In the last two campaigns, the Pirates have produced a pair of NCAA Tournament regional final appearances, two Conference USA Tournament championships, one league regular season crown, an 85-40 overall record and a 30-15 mark against C-USA competition.
This year's team returns 12 letterwinners and eight starters, but must replace All-America pitcher Toni Paisley as well as the No. 2 hurler the last two seasons, Faith Sutton. While there will be new faces in the circle, the award-winning coaching staff returns intact.
Directing East Carolina is 16th-year head coach Tracey Kee, who enters her 26th season with the program. She spent four years (1987-90) as a standout player and six (1991-96) as an assistant coach before taking over the helm. A win at UTEP on April 22, 2011, allowed Kee to reach the 650-victory plateau and she enters 2012 with 659 triumphs to her credit.
Kee will be aided in the dugout again by associate head coach Natalie Kozlowski, returning for her 12th season. The last two campaigns, Kee and Kozlowski have been selected as the National Fastpitch Coaches Association Mideast Region Coaching Staff-of-the-Year.
Since the start of the 2001 season when Kozlowski joined the staff, the Pirates have amassed a record of 457-252-1 (.644 winning percentage). Her work with the 2011 offense might be her most notable performance to date. Of the team's regular offensive starters, seven were underclassmen - including six freshmen. The spark at the top of the order was provided by first-year standout Kristi Oshiro, who, under the guidance of Kozlowski, tallied team-best marks in hits, walks and runs scored.
This year, the coaches will only be breaking in five freshmen, three pitchers and two infielders. But the Pirates enter the campaign without a player who has thrown an inning in college since senior Priscilla Velasquez tossed one-and-two-thirds Feb. 8, 2009, in her only career appearance. On the other hand, East Carolina does welcome back 88.6 percent of its hits, 89.8 percent of the team's runs scored, 90.8 percent of runs batted in and all of its home runs from the 2011 campaign.
For the last two years, East Carolina relied heavily on the steady pitching arm of All-America Paisley, who exhausted her eligibility at the end of last season while Sutton left the program.
This year, freshmen Sarah Christian, Emma Mendoker and Courtney Smith are expected to shoulder the load in the circle.
Christian, from D.H. Conley High School in Greenville, was a four-time N.C. Softball Coaches Association 3A All-State selection. In her final campaign, she was named the North Carolina 3A-East Pitcher-of-the-Year and earned most valuable player honors at the state championship after helping the Vikings claim their first title by recording three victories and 25 strikeouts in 27 innings. She finished the season with a 0.69 earned run average, 188 whiffs, 71 hits allowed and 11 earned runs surrendered in 142 2/3 innings. As a junior, Christian was nearly as impressive, going 19-4 with 12 shutouts and 147 strikeouts.
Mendoker was selected as the ESPN RISE 2010-11 Gatorade Massachusetts Softball Player-of-the-Year after posting a 23-2 record, 0.17 earned run average and 300 strikeouts. The Amherst, Mass., native accumulated 1,002 strikeouts during her high school career as Amherst Regional High School lost only one regular-season game during her time with the program - a 2-0 setback to Agawam when she was a senior. Mendoker broke out as a junior with a 23-1 record, six no-hitters, a 0.21 ERA and 312 strikeouts in 165 innings. That year, she led the Hurricanes to the Western Massachusetts Division I title and Division I state semifinals.
Smith, from Yuba City, Calif., earned first-team all-area and All-Tri County League honors each year of her career. Following her senior season at River Valley High School, she was selected as the Tri-County Co-League Most Valuable Player and Appeal-Democrat All-Area Player-of-the-Year for posting a 0.92 earned run average and conference-best 166 strikeouts. She fanned at least 150 batters every year and guided River Valley to its first playoff win in any sport during the 2010 season. As a junior, she posted a 15-4 record with a 0.70 ERA and 198 strikeouts and was named to the Sacramento River Cats' All-City High School Team.
This year's pitching staff will be throwing to any of four catchers - junior Kai Clark, sophomores Rebecca Lee and Abby Wynne, and freshman Sara Pacioni. Clark was the team's primary catcher a year ago, starting there for 42 of the team's 62 games. This season when not behind the dish, Clark could experience action at third base, where she earned all-state honors in high school. In 2011, she paced the Pirates with 361 putouts and matched her personal best with seven runners caught stealing. Offensively, the Kapolei, Hawai'i, product tallied a career-high six doubles while recording five multiple-RBI and four multi-hit contests. Clark particularly excelled in the regular-season series with Tulsa, delivering the game-winning run in the first contest with bases-loaded walk and registering a personal-best three RBI in the final tilt.
Lee, a Hawai'i native from Mililani, proved to be one of the most versatile players on the squad last year, starting 15 games at catcher and 26 as the designated player. She led the Pirates with 14 sacrifice bunts (third most in Conference USA) and 12 stolen bases while ranking third in walks with 25. Behind the dish, Lee caught Toni Paisley's no-hitter versus Charleston Southern and established a personal best with 13 putouts during the contest. She found her groove at the plate during the Wilson/DeMarini Invitational in March, batting .625 and drawing five walks during the five contests. When not catching this season, Lee could play left field, right field or as the designated player.
Wynne spent last year as the team's top substitute, appearing in 37 games and starting nine - six at catcher. She led the Pirates with 16 at-bats as a pinch hitter, registering a squad-best five hits in that role. The North Pitt High School product was also used a pinch runner eight times and scored a pair of runs. Wynne hit the first triple inside the ECU Softball Stadium, knocking the three-bagger against UNC Wilmington. At eventual national champion Arizona State, she delivered a pinch-hit double in the fifth inning.
Rounding out the list of potential catchers is Pacioni, who was a four-year starter for San Ramon Valley High School. She was a three-time All-East Bay Athletic League selection who served as a co-captain as a junior. The Danville, Calif., native was named a North Coast Section and California Interscholastic Federation Scholar as a freshman and sophomore. This season with ECU, she could garner additional playing time at third base.
Tomorrow, Part II of the softball preview will take a look at this year's infield and outfield.

With all this talk of the Olympics one can only wonder how they maintain their physique. Well on second thought it should be pretty obvious, they train like there's no tomorrow. But not everyone has the time or money for Olympic training. It turns out to look like an Olympian doesn't require as much work or time as one would think. All one really needs is a little patience, a coach, a few weights, and two very intense workouts.
Olympic workouts are considered one of the best workouts. The Snatch and The Clean & Jerk are the only workouts that are considered as Olympic workouts. Nothing really compares when it comes to developing overall body strength and speed. Both exercises begin as dead lifts. From there one transitions into a shoulder shrug, jump squat, then ends in an overhead squat, this all being for the snatch. The Clean & Jerk continues in a front row, then front press, transitioning to a squat, and then ending in a pushes press. These motions are said to work every muscle in the entire body. It is much different than your average workouts that require simple motion, but only work a few select areas.
This workout is very good for those who don't have hours to spend in the gym, for cardio, and obviously for muscle. It isn't generally possible to over lift or put too much strain on your muscles because your entire body is involved in this exercise. The sets usually look like 5-4-3-2-1 and you add more weight as the reps lower. Olympic lifters burn almost as many calories as marathon runners.
Olympic lifting is a very technical workout. Many people have coaches to teach the very technical motions. A good way to begin would be simply isolating each transition in the workouts and practicing them independently. After learning each motion independently one can gradually building on to each workout consecutively. However, nothing beats learning from on trained in the Olympic workouts.
For more info: Stop by Gainesville Gym on 6th street by Santa Fe. There they have an area for Olympic workouts and you might run into a few people doing Olympic workouts. Also visit BodyBuilding.com

Lionel Washington was a standout defensive back for Tulane from 1979-82.
Dec. 30, 2013
New Orleans - Former Tulane football standout and current Green Wave assistant coach Lionel Washington will take his place among the state's top athletes, as he headlines an eight-member induction class for the 2014 Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame that will be enshrined on June 21 in Natchitoches, La.
A native of nearby Lutcher, Washington will join LSU product Alan Faneca, a nine-time Pro Bowl selection, along with All-Star pitcher Shane Reynolds and New Orleans Saints and Pelicans owner/chairman of the board Tom Benson.
Baton Rouge-Catholic High School cross country and track coach Pete Boudreaux, and Olympic gold medalist Venus Lacy, who helped Louisiana Tech win the 1988 women's basketball national championship, are also in the Hall's 2014 induction class.
Trailblazing basketball coach Beryl Shipley, who guided the UL-Lafayette Ragin' Cajuns to national prominence in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and legendary Cottonport football player, coach and official Richard "Moon" Ducote will be honored posthumously.
The group will be officially enshrined Saturday, June 21, in Natchitoches to culminate the 2014 Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame Induction Celebration June 19-21.
Washington was a four-year letterman and three-year starter for the Green Wave from 1979-82 and was a part of three winning seasons and two bowl trips, including the 1979 Liberty Bowl and 1980 Hall of Fame Bowl. Following a professional playing and coaching career, he returned to his alma mater in 2012 as Tulane's cornerbacks coach and co-defensive coordinator and helped lead the team to a 7-6 overall record and a berth in the 2013 R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl.
During his collegiate career with the Green Wave, Washington logged career numbers of 192 tackles (130 solo, 62 assists), six tackles for loss and eight interceptions. He tallied eight tackles (6 solo, 2 assists) with an interception as a freshman in 1979, while his best numbers came as a sophomore when he had 78 tackles (47 solo, 31 assists) to go with two tackles for loss and five interceptions, and added another interception in the 1980 Hall of Fame Bowl.
Washington claimed honorable-mention All-Metro honors as a junior after recording 43 stops (29 solo, 14 assists), two tackles for loss and an interception he returned 68 yards for a touchdown. He recorded 63 tackles (48 solo, 15 assists) with two tackles for loss and an interception as a senior and was named Tulane Defensive Player of the Week for his efforts against Air Force (10/18/80) and Rice (9/18/82).
Following his collegiate career, Washington was selected by the St. Louis Cardinals in the fourth round of the 1983 NFL Draft and by the Tampa Bay Bandits in the 20th round of the 1983 United States Football League Draft. He had a productive 15-year NFL career with three teams (Cardinals, Raiders, Broncos), intercepting 37 passes. He played in 204 games, starting 165, with a career-high eight pickoffs with the St. Louis Cardinals in 1985 and at least one interception in 13 of his 15 seasons.
He later spent 10 seasons with the Green Bay Packers as a secondary coach (1999-2008), and served in the same capacity with the Oakland Raiders from 2009-10. Prior to Tulane, he coached defensive backs with the United Football League's Virginia Destroyers in 2011.
Washington was inducted into the Tulane Athletics Hall of Fame in 1997.
The 2014 Induction Class will be showcased in the Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame Museum, operated by the Louisiana State Museum system in a partnership with the Louisiana Sports Writers Association. The striking two-story, 27,500-square foot structure faces Cane River Lake in the National Historic Landmark District of Natchitoches and has garnered worldwide architectural acclaim and rave reviews for its contents since its grand opening during the 2013 Hall of Fame induction weekend.
A 30-member Louisiana Sports Writers Association committee selected the 2014 inductees. The panel considered 114 nominees from 26 different sport categories on a 24-page ballot, said Hall of Fame chairman Doug Ireland.
The eight new inductees will raise the total of Hall of Fame members to 310 competitors honored since the first induction class -- baseball's Mel Ott, world champion boxer Tony Canzoneri and LSU football great Gaynell Tinsley -- were enshrined in 1959 after their election a year earlier.
The Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame includes 16 Pro Football Hall of Fame members, 18 Olympic medalists (10 gold medal winners), nine members of the Basketball Hall of Fame, seven of the NBA's 50 Greatest Players, six Baseball Hall of Fame inductees, 34 College Football Hall of Fame members, five National High School Hall of Fame enshrines, jockeys with a combined 12 Triple Crown victories, six world boxing champions, seven Women's Basketball Hall of Fame enshrinees, seven College Baseball Hall of Fame inductees, seven College Basketball Hall of Fame members, four NBA Finals MVPs and two Super Bowl MVPs. Biographical information on all current members is available at the LaSportsHall.com website, with a steady stream of info available at the Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame Facebook page and the @LaSportsHall twitter account.
The 2014 Induction Celebration will kick off Thursday, June 19 with the press conference and reception. It includes three receptions, a youth sports clinic, and a Friday, June 20 celebrity pro-am golf scramble at Oak Wing Golf Course in Alexandria. Tickets for the Induction Dinner and Ceremonies, and golf entries, will go on sale this spring through the LaSportsHall.com website.
Also to be honored at the event will be two other Hall of Fame inductees, the winner of the 2014 Dave Dixon Louisiana Sports Leadership Award and the recipient of the 2014 Distinguished Service Award in Sports Journalism presented by the LSWA. Those award recipients will be announced in January.
Adding to the 302 sports competitors currently enshrined, 12 winners of the Dave Dixon Louisiana Sports Leadership award and 53 recipients of the Distinguished Service Award in Sports Journalism, there are 367 current members of the Hall of Fame.
The 2014 Induction Celebration weekend will be hosted by the Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame Foundation, the support organization for the Hall of Fame. The LSHOF Foundation was established as a 501 c 3 non-profit entity in 1975 and is governed by a statewide board of directors. For information on sponsorship opportunities, contact Foundation President/CEO Lisa Babin at 318-458-0166 or email@example.com. Standard and customized sponsorships are available.

The main feature I would like to see is the automatic generation of setters and getters for any variable declared via a public, or annotated...

I'd like to see the Isolates API added, this could make big improvements to application security and fix some fundamental issues. Developers are using class loaders, separate threads and duplicating class files, while debugging type cast issues.

Before adding new features, what about fixing very fundamental bugs in the JVM itself?
This bug for example is very important because it shows how the JVM produces incorrect code, but it's still unresolved after more than 6 years:

Thanks for the comments. While I'm not working on any of the issues you mentioned, I've forwarded them to my team colleagues.
Posted by Weijun on January 06, 2011 at 02:13 AM CST #
For me the main thing would be to have the boiler-plate code related to getters/setters removed from Java. A solution a la Scala would be very good. There are several solution, but you could imaging a class field annotated with @Property for ex, then the compiler would generate the getters and setters automatically - and if they are already defined, they are used.
class C {
@Property private int id;
class C {
@Property private int id;
public int getId(); public void setId(int id) {this.id = id};

The Tony Awards 2014 took the stage on June 8. The show that celebrates Broadway started airing on CBS at 8 p.m., ET., but before the main event, New York City fashionistas led a stunning red carpet fashion parade. According to Hollywood Life, Emmy Rossum and Idina Menzel were early arrivals, showing off their seminal sartorial skills on the runway in front of the legendary Radio City Music Hall.
Rossum, who was booked as a presenter at the show, showed up in a metallic gown with folded detailing down the front of her radiant frock from the Ralph Lauren Collection. Menzel was swathed in a blood red number that showed off her ample cleavage and Beth Behrs of "Two Broke Girls" fame had on a Carolina Herrera, two-tone dress with fish tail skirt.
Maggie Gyllenhaal was also on point on the Tony Awards 2014 red carpet. The actress had on a strapless Dolce & Gabbana gown that was white and that featured plenty of feathers. Patti LaBelle had on her Sunday best and wore her hair in a short bob while Fran Drescher, who appears on the Great White Way as Cinderella, was wearing a screaming orange frock that shimmered as she walked the sartorial runway for this awards show.
As for the man of the hour who was about to host the Tony Awards this year, Hugh Jackman had on a black suit and a bow tie to go along with his very dramatic beard as he walked the red carpet prior to the program (shades of Wolverine). That said and at his side, Deborra-Lee Furness wore a stunning black gown as is proper for this annual black tie event.
And so, as yet another awards show hits the Big Apple, Broadway theater is on the boards as are celebrities wearing high fashion to celebrate this event held in New York City on Sunday.

"A ground-breaking study that provides one of the best case studies we have in the bioarchaeology of violence. A must-read for anyone interested in the origin and evolution of aggression and violence in human societies."--Debra L. Martin, University of Nevada "In this exciting new work, Dr. Tung provides the first comprehensive view of life and the bodies inside ancient Peru's Wari Empire. Situating the study of archaeological human remains where bioarchaeology and the contemporary archaeology intersect, Tung focuses on the lived experience of Wari inhabitants to explore the creation of bioarchaeological narratives, the ways that bodies become material culture, and the influence of imperial control."--Christina Torres-Rouff, Colorado College The Wari Empire thrived in the Peruvian Andes between AD 600 and 1000. This study of human skeletons reveals the biological and social impact of Wari imperialism on people's lives, particularly its effects on community organization and frequency of violence of both ruling elites and subjects. The Wari state was one of the first politically centralized civilizations in the New World that expanded dramatically as a product of its economic and military might. Tiffiny Tung reveals that Wari political and military elites promoted and valorized aggressive actions, such as the abduction of men, women, and children from foreign settlements. Captive men and children were sacrificed, dismembered, and transformed into trophy heads, while non-local women received different treatment relative to the men and children. By inspecting bioarchaeological data from skeletons and ancient DNA, as well as archaeological data, Tung provides a better understanding of how the empire's practices affected human communities, particularly in terms of age/sex structure, mortuary treatment, use of violence, and ritual processes associated with power and bodies.

Nikki Ferrell has once again had to defend her relationship with Juan Pablo Galavis. On Monday, August 4, Nikki's relationship with Juan Pablo came under fire after she dissed "The Bachelor" spin-off show "Bachelor in Paradise."
Nikki tweeted she would "rather stab pencils in [her] eyeballs" than watch the spin-off. She ended her tweet with the hashtag "#trainwreck." Nikki's tweet received a lot of backlash. Many people criticized her for saying such a rude thing. Many also pointed out that Nikki shouldn't be so ungrateful to a franchise that brought her and Juan Pablo together.
Some even turned Nikki's tweet against her. One person sarcastically tweeted that dating the same guy with 25 other girls only to not get engaged at the end is a train wreck, an obvious reference to the fact that Juan Pablo declined to propose to Nikki.
As for Nikki's response to that tweet, she may be wishing that she just stayed silent. That's because her response seems to reveal what she really thinks of her good friend Andi Dorfman getting engaged to Josh Murray at the end of "The Bachelorette."
"Wait so you'd get engaged to someone you'd known for two months? You sound sane. #OrNot," Nikki tweeted in response. Several people pointed out that Nikki should not have said such a thing since that's exactly what Andi did. Several people also wrote that Nikki is just pretending that she didn't want Juan Pablo to propose.
After Andi got engaged to Josh on the finale of "The Bachelorette," Nikki said that she was "beyond happy" for the two. Maybe Nikki really is happy for Andi but still thinks she's nuts for getting engaged so quick?
In an interview with Us Weekly after her engagement, Andi Dorfman was asked if she would invite Juan Pablo Galavis to her wedding to Josh Murray. She joked that she would only do so if he marries Nikki Ferrell and that it's time for him to put a ring on her finger. Perhaps Nikki should inform her friend that she's definitely okay with her lack of engagement?

Many people believe those who have or could lose their homes or cars took a loan they couldn't repay. In some cases that maybe true but the majority I would say are those who had no problems paying their debts until the economy tanked and they lost their income. Plus when the job market dried up made it impossible to find work or work that paid enough to be able to keep up on their debts. In many cases it was not their idea to default on loans they took. So I wish those who have been saved this horrific tragedy would stop labeling those as losers. Until they walk in the shoes of those who worked hard all their life to achieve the American dream of owning a car and house just to see it all melt away and not to be able to save it, those people need to keep their sarcasim to themself and thank god they were spared.
My case is simple I had a brother who worked hard at his job to be able to buy the home he wanted. He did that and unfortunately he had a heart attack and surgery. Thank God his insurance paid for that at the time. He went back to work and was doing well until he lost his jobs and insurance. I lived with him and I to lost my job at the same time. Both of us unemployed at the same time and no insurance because we couldn't afford it being out of work. We applied for Badger care and was informed at the time it was broke. My brother was placed on the waiting list 2 years ago. The stress of being out of work, no income, no insurance and falling behind on the house finally took its toll on him this spring. He passed away and by the way he is still on the waiting list. I have tried to find work to try to keep his home of which he left to me. But, no such luck on work so now I am faced with the fact that I lost my brother in spring and now in fall I will lose the house he worked his butt of to get. So if I seem angry there is the reason. I know I am not alone in this with losing a home. But, it hurts and angers a person when you see something you worked hard for just desolve away due to no fault of your own. To have to start over with nothing when you are closer to retirement and should be preparing to take life easier is a very scarey thing to look at. Because when you hit the 50's not many places want to hire you.
As for the fees banks charge, I don't feel I should have to pay to get my own money. The banks make enough off of using the depositors money and about the person or persons who robbed the bank. Maybe they are in a dire situation and felt there was nothing else they could do. It doesn't make it right, but these are very very hard times. This is the last I am going to comment on this.

I am 4 days late on my period. I have taken 3 pregnancy tests. All negative. What should I do?
My periods are really regular. I have most of the pre-pregnancy symptoms..and I'm usually never late with my period, even by a day. I do however have diabetes and have been under some stress. My back aches, I've been sick to my stomach, smells are overwhelming at times, and my breasts have been really tender and oh so sore.So I really am confused as to what's going on.

Stress can cause a delayed period as well. So best to just relax. Currently pregnant, and with this baby, I tested a couple days after I missed a period, and still negative. I waited and retested a couple days later. It was a little over 2 weeks after my missed period that I got a positive result. I dont know our bodies are interesting, complex, but also very personal things. From one person to the next, things are different. :)posted 04/30/2010 by AmyPecor
stay strong, take care of yorself..and if you don't get your period in a couple of days retest. If you still get a negative response, go see your docter. Thats what i'd do!!!posted 07/17/2008 by a BabyCenter Member

In March MTV will premier its newest show, "House of Foods," that will feature on Michigan State University student, according to Detroit Free Press on January 15. Brian John-Han Ko left East Lansing letting his friends believe he was "going to some sort of cooking school."
"House of Foods" is MTV's first cooking show which will put eight chef hopefuls on the same turf as Snookie, Miley, and Jagger, along with all the "Real World' alum. According to MTV, chefs are becoming rockstars.
"Food, for our young cast, has become a sort of social currency," states shows producer, Mike Duffy.
Kho is one of the eight hopefuls who has surprised his friends and family because he was going to Michigan State University to be a doctor, an orthopedic surgeon, which he soon changed to a business major right before being accepted to the show. "That didn't go over so well," Brian tells Detroit Free Press. Brian is originally from Royal Oak, MI where he grew up in a family of "busy parents."
Because his parents were so busy, Brian had to cook dinner and entertain himself. "I would watch cooking shows and read as much as I could," Kho tells the Detroit Free Press. Now that the show is done filming, Kho plans to return to East Lansing and work for a new catering company.
"House of Food" premiers on MTV on March 31 at 10 p.m. EST.

Spring 2008 was a wonderful season for Jablonski. She waked for BCBG MaxAzria, Diane von Furstenberg, Donna Karan, Matthew Williamson and Marchesa all during New York Fashion Week. She also took part in Milan Fashion Week, when she walked for Blugirl by Blumarine and for La Perla. Shortly after, Jablonski's name became very familiar in the fashion industry during the next season she was one of the most wanted models by lots of designers and brands.
At her first Paris Fashion Week (Fall 2009), Jablonski walked the runways of Louis Vuitton, Lanvin, Nina Ricci, Vivienne Westwood and Dries van Noten.
During Spring 2009 season, Constance walked in about 72 fashion shows. Her achievement has turned her into the most-requested model of the season.
Apart from ready-to-wear fashion shows, Jablonski also modeled for Haute Couture designs, brands such as Givenchy (2009) and Valentino couture (2010).
Although she only walked for Peter Som and Cushnie et Ochs in Spring 2011 New York Fashion Week, Constance accomplished a great year in terms of ad campaigns and fashion magazine covers.
Constance Jablonski's fresh face and sexy figure earned her many ad contracts. In 2009 she was photographed by Mario Testino as one of the faces of D&G. That same year, she was also the star of Donna Karan, Moschino and Topshop's Spring ad campaigns.
2010 was also a very good year for Constance in terms of ad contracts. She was photographed by Craig McDean for a CK by Calvin Klein ad campaign, shortly after, Steven Meisel photographed Jablonski to Alberta Ferretti's new ad campaign.
During 2011, Constance starred in two very interesting campaigns. One of them was for Sonia Rykiel and the other was a magnificent campaign for Dolce & Gabbana.
Throughout her career Constance was the face of Hermes (2010) and the face of Bally (2011). As of 2012 she was chosen as the new face of French cosmetics label – Estee' Lauder alongside with Liu Wen and Joan Smalls.
Even though Jablonski gave up her professional tennis dream, she likes playing sports whenever she has the time. In addition, Constance enjoys playing the piano and watching Broadway shows.

Local Food; Revolution and Reality[*]
John Ikerd[†]
On March 26, 2010 Jamie Oliver, an
outspoken British chef turned activist, called for a "food revolution" in
In the first episode, Oliver
pointed out that today's children are the first generation whose members are expected
to live shorter lives than their parents. It's not the kids' fault; they eat
what parents and other adults choose to feed them, or at least allow them to
eat. Too often, this means whatever is cheapest, quickest, and most convenient.
Over the past few decades, health care spending in the
Actually, the food revolution was
well underway long before Jamie Oliver arrived in
The local food movement has its roots in the natural food movement of the 1960s, which began with the "back to the earth" people dropping out of the American mainstream and forming their own communities or "communes." Rachel Carson's 1962 book, Silent Spring, had awakened public awareness to the environmental risks of agricultural pesticides. The "hippies" responded by producing their own natural foods, buying natural foods at local farmers markets, and establishing the first cooperatively owned and operated natural food stores. Most knew where their natural food came from because they knew the farmers who grew it. To these early natural food advocates, organic was more a way of life as a way to grow good, healthy food. It was a rejection of the mechanistic way of thinking that supported industrial development, including industrial agriculture.
During the 1970s and 1980s, the
natural food movement spread far beyond the hippie communities, as more people
became aware of the food safety and environmental risks associated with
industrial agriculture. The growing market for natural foods laid the
foundation for a booming market in organic foods during the 1990s. As natural
food retailers took a larger share of the natural foods market, fewer consumers
then knew the farmers who grew their food so they needed some other means of
knowing that their food was grown naturally. Organic certification was a means of assuring consumers that
legitimate standards for natural food
production had been followed. Organic farmers across the
The late '80s and early '90s brought dramatic changes in organic foods retailing. By the late '80s, several natural foods retailers had expanded into small chain store operations, operating from three to 20 stores. In 1991, Whole Foods, then a six-store operation, began buying out other natural food stores, beginning a consolidation process that ultimately would reshape the natural foods market.[3] In 1993, Wild Oats followed the lead of Whole Foods and began acquiring other natural foods cooperatives and small retail chains.[4] The share of the organic market held by independent natural foods and health foods stores fell from 62% in 1998 to 31% in 2003. Total sales of organic foods grew an average rate of 20% per year during the 1990s and well into the 2000s, doubling every three to four years.
Prospects for large profits from the
rapidly growing organic food market eventually attracted the attention of the
large mainstream food corporations. The mainstream supermarkets, such as Kroger
and Safeway, added lines of organic foods and began promoting organic foods in
their ads. In 2005, Wal-Mart announced plans to move into organic foods in a
big way, initially committed to retailing organic foods for a price premium of
only 10% over their "always low" conventional food prices. In 2007, mainstream
corporate supermarkets had 47% of the organic foods market. The large natural
food chains and independent food coops accounted for 46%, leaving direct sales
at farmers markets and cooperative food-buying clubs with just 7% percent of
the organic market.[5] Whole
Foods eventually bought out Wilds Oats, and by 2009 operated 270 stores in
North America and the
The large corporate food retailers and processors found it difficult to deal with large numbers of small farms, particularly with the diversity of organic standards and certification programs that existed among different groups of farmers in different regions of the country. They encouraged organic farmers to adopt uniform national standards for organic certification so they could assemble the large quantities of organic products necessary to supply their stores. Organic farmers were led to believe that uniform national standards would give them greater access to these mainstream food markets. On the surface, standardization of organics seemed to be a good idea and most organic farmers supported it.
In 2002, the USDA launched its national program for certification of organic foods. However, uniform national standards actually facilitated the ongoing industrialization of organic food production and distribution – the specialization, standardization, and consolidation of control needed to accommodate the mainstream food system. With greater standardization, organic producers continued to specialize and consolidate into even larger scale operations. Large producers typically could meet these minimum requirements at lower costs than could the philosophically committed organic farmers. This industrialization of organics left smaller independent organic farmers and natural foods coops struggling for their economic survival.
However, many discriminating natural foods consumers were already moving beyond organic to local. They didn't trust either the corporate food system or the government to maintain the integrity of either conventional or organic foods. Many people in the new food movement didn't trust certified organic; they wanted to buy their foods locally from people they knew and trusted. If you asked these people why they prefer local foods they would probably mention freshness and flavor. However, the local food movement today is about far more than a search for fresh and flavorful foods; it's about a search food with integrity.
The Chefs Collaborative, a network of more than 1,000 American chefs, promotes the "joys of local, seasonal, and artisanal cooking," proclaiming that "cultural and biological diversity are essential for the health of the earth and its inhabitants."[6] These same cultural and ethical values are reflected in the Slow Food movement, a worldwide organization with about 85,000 members in over 100 countries. Their website states, "We believe that the food we eat should taste good; that it should be produced in a clean way that does not harm the environment, animal welfare or our health; that food producers should receive fair compensation for their work, and that all people should have access to good clean food."[7] Good, clean, and fair are becoming the watchwords of the local foods movement.
The natural food movement is being fueled today by scientific studies indicating that nutritive values of foods have declined with the industrialization of the food system, verifying Jamie Oliver's insinuations. [8] One prominent academic study compared nutrient levels in 43 garden crops in 1999 with levels documented in benchmark nutrient studies conducted by USDA in 1950. The scientists found declines in median concentrations of six important nutrients: protein –6%, calcium –16%, phosphorus –9%, iron –15%, riboflavin –38%, and vitamin C –2%.[9] Another study published in the Journal of Applied Nutrition in 1993 showed nutritional deficiencies for conventional foods relative to organic foods.[10] Organically grown apples, potatoes, pears, wheat, and sweet corn, purchased over a two-year period, averaged 63% higher in calcium, 73% higher in iron, 118% higher in magnesium, 91% higher in phosphorus, 125% higher in potassium, and 60% higher in zinc than conventional foods purchased at the same time.
Other studies have shown that yield-enhancing technologies – fertilizers, pesticides, plant density, and irrigation – reduce the nutrient content of field crops by amounts generally consistent with the results for the 50-year nutrient declines and differences between conventional and organic crops.[11] These results should come as no surprise to anyone who understands that industrial agriculture derives profits primarily from quantity factors: acres farmed, head produced, yields per acre, rates of gain, and the cost efficiency of large-scale production. Quality factors affecting prices typically are incidental to profits and are often associated with cosmetic appearance rather than nutrition.
The food processing and distribution industry also must share the blame. The corporations that market our foods are concerned about profits – not diet or health. In fact, the managers of the multinational corporations that currently control the American food system have a legal fiduciary responsibility to maximize returns to their stockholders. They have no social or ethical commitment to protecting public health and do only those things required by law. Current laws are clearly inadequate to protect the public from diet related illnesses, as is evident in current trends in the diets and health of Americans.
Food industry marketers know that humans have a natural taste preference, probably a genetic predisposition, for foods that are high in fat and sugar. Preferences essential for the survival and health of our primitive ancestors may threaten our health today. Regardless, it's easier to market foods that are higher in calories, particularly when those foods are cheaper to produce. The primary sources of those cheap calories are plants and animals from farms using modern yield-enhancing technologies and thus lacking in nutrient density.
There is no scarcity of information today on the subject of food. Best-selling books, such as Fast Food Nation[12] and Omnivore's Dilemma,[13] awakened mainstream society to the dramatic changes in the ways foods were being produced, processed, distributed, and marketed. The End of Food[14] and America's Food[15] covered virtually all aspects of the industrial, corporately-controlled, global food system. Video documentaries such as Future of Food,[16] Broken Limbs,[17] and Fresh; The Movie[18] provided gripping images of the negative ecological and social impacts of an industrial food system on nature, society, and on future of humanity. They all tell the same story of a food system that is lacking in ecological, social, and economic integrity.
These books and documentaries also tell a story of hope for the future through the voices and images of the farmers and consumers who are creating a new, sustainable food system. The farmers may label themselves organic, biodynamic, ecological, natural, holistic, or choose no label at all; but they were all pursuing the same basic purpose. They are creating systems of farming that can maintain their productivity and usefulness to society indefinitely – a permanent, sustainable agriculture. They are producing food with ecological, social, and economic integrity.
The stories tend to focus on a
few Celebrity farmers, such as Joel Salatin[19]
(Polyface Farms, Inc.) of
The ten-of-thousands of new sustainable farmers are supported by tens of millions of consumers who are searching for alternatives to the industrial foods they find in today's supermarkets and fast food franchises today. Food industry studies indicate approximately one-third of American consumers are willing pay premium prices for healthful and nutritious foods that have ecological, social, and economic integrity.[21] Many are turning to local farmers and local markets to ensure the integrity of their food. The local foods movement has been doubling the number of farmers markets each decade, even as organic foods moved into mainstream supermarkets.
People tend to underestimate the importance of the local food movement because they associate local with home farmers markets and community supported agricultural organizations or CSAs, and more recently, home and community gardens. While farmers markets and CSAs have been growing rapidly, they still account for a very small portion of total food sales. The number of home vegetable gardens also exploded after the sharp run up in food prices during 2008 – including one at the White House. While farmers markets, CSAs, and gardens are and will continue to be important, the local food movement is probably most accurately defined by the growing number of retail food stores and institutional food buyers who are committed to sourcing as much food as possible from local growers.
example, Good Natured Family Farms is an "alliance of more than 100 family
farms, some are 3rd or 4th generation, who raise our animals humanely and care
for the earth in a sustainable fashion. We have banded together to be able to
bring our foods to Hen House Markets and Ball's Price Chopper Supermarkets, and
the Community Mercantile in Lawrence, Kansas."[22] The alliance began by supplying high quality
beef to Hen House Markets, a 13-store supermarket chain operated by Ball Foods
Inc., a family corporation with a long history in
New Seasons Market operates nine
food supermarkets in the
The local food revolution is also
moving into institutional markets – schools, hospitals, extended care
facilities, etc. – in addition to supermarkets and restaurants. The most
impressive progress thus far seems to have been made in getting sustainably
produced local foods into public schools. For example, more than 500 public
school districts and 95 colleges and universities currently have active
programs to provide U.S. students with locally grown foods.[24] By
the way, Jamie Oliver started his food revolution in
Supermarkets and institutional markets will continue to be important. However, the food systems of the future may more closely resemble today's multi-farm CSAs. Grown Locally,[25] Idaho's Bounty,[26] and the Oklahoma Food Cooperative,[27]for example, are cooperative organizations of farmers that offer a variety of vegetables, fruits, meats, eggs, cheese, baked goods, flowers, and herbs produced by local farmers. Many items are available as CSA shares, standing orders, or for week-by-week purchase. Customers may have the option of on-farm pick-up, local delivery points, or delivery to the door for an added charge. Websites allow producers to post what they have available each week, ensuring that products sold are available for delivery and allowing customers to place or revise their orders on the website.
At a different scale of operation,
Riverford Organics in the
This is
the current reality of the local food movement. The total sales of all alternative
foods – natural, organic, local…, – probably still amount to something less
than 10% of total retail food sales. However, the natural food movement is
still less than fifty years old and was virtually unknown until about 20 years
ago. The movement has grown tremendously over the past two decades and
continues to grow, in spite of the economic recession. It will only take the
right spark at the right time to ignite an explosion in public demand for "good food." Jamie Oliver came

Ricks-Weil presents Helen Keller story in 'The Miracle Worker,' honors Keller's legacy with Lions Club glasses donation drive
By John Belden
7:30 p.m. Friday, Saturday and March 8-9, and 2:30 p.m. March 10 at the H.J. Ricks Centre for the Arts, 122 W. Main St., Greenfield. Free student tickets, one per paid adult admission, with prior reservation. Greenfield Lions Club will be accepting donations of new and gently-used glasses. For tickets and information, call (317) 410-6319.
GREENFIELD — Helen Keller was not born deaf and blind, but by the time she was two years old, she had lost both those senses. A child of well-to-do Alabama parents in the 1880s, she started out in a spoiled, almost feral childhood. But one year, her parents found a way to give their daughter a chance at a more normal life, hiring Anne Sullivan, the woman who would be declared a "miracle worker" for the way she broke through little Helen's limited perceptions and brought her into contact with the wider world.
The story of that breakthrough has been immortalized in William Gibson's play "The Miracle Worker," which will be presented by the local Ricks-Weil Theatre Company this Friday, Saturday and March 8-10 at the H.J. Ricks Centre for the Arts, 122 W. Main St. downtown.
Keller grew up to become the first deaf-blind woman to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree, and became a world-famous writer, speaker and activist. One of her appearances was before the 1925 Lions Clubs International Convention in Cedar Point, Ohio.
According to the Lions Clubs' website, she charged the organization to become "knights of the blind in a crusade against darkness." The Lions have been involved in helping the blind and visually impaired since.
At all performances of Ricks-Weil's "Miracle Worker," the Greenfield Lions Club will accept donations of new and gently-used eyeglasses and reading glasses.
As another community service, since Keller's story has long been taught in schools, Ricks-Weil will give one free student admission with paid adult admission. Ticket reservations are required for this promotion.
The central Indiana cast, mostly from Hancock County, includes (pictured above, from left) Beth Ray-Scott as Aunt Ev Keller, Andrew Cable as James Keller, Cerissa Marsh as Sullivan, Bronwyn Doebbeling as Helen, and Caroline Carney and Gary Roberts as Kate Keller and Cpt. Arthur Keller, Helen's parents. Other performers include Hanna Varrone, Gwyneth Doebbeling, Bradley Thompson, Mike Dapoz, John Thompson, Ellie Shanahan, Tara Powell and Elizah Tillett. The director is Kathy Hoefgen.
Curtain times are 7:30 p.m. for all performances except 2:30 p.m. for Sunday, March 10. Call (317) 410-6319 for tickets and information.

The 49ers announced they have released Carlos Rogers on Tuesday afternoon. This marks the end of a three year tenure for Rogers with the 49ers as he will be an unrestricted free agent.
San Francisco tried to make Rogers take a paycut prior to the 2013 season, but he ended up calling their bluff and had an $8 million cap hit for the year. The 49ers will save about $6.6 million in cap space this season with almost $3 million in dead money.
With the emergence of Tramaine Brock coupled by the fact that Tarell Brown received more playing time, it is no surprise that Rogers has become a cap casualty. In the final weeks of the regular season, he struggled and will be most remembered for allowing a touchdown against the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC Championship game on fourth down.
The 49ers initially signed him to a one-year contract during the 2011 offseason and it initially panned out as he had his first Pro Bowl season in his career. Rogers was also named as a second-team All-Pro for 2011. After coming off a great season, the 49ers rewarded him with a four-year contract the following year.
Cornerback has been an expected position of need for the 49ers this offseason. While Brock has established himself as a No.1 CB, there is uncertainty as to who will complement him. Tarell Brown is also an unrestricted free agent while Chris Culliver, was was the team's nickel CB, is coming back from a torn ACL which he suffered in training camp.
The 49ers should be drafting one CB while also making a signing elsewhere in free agency.

Be sure to invoke your custom versions, because there can be a standard sun-provided libxml2/libxslt installation, see below.

Melbourne remains hopeful of diluting its expected $500,000 fine as a result of the investigation into whether it deliberately lost games in 2009.
The AFL Commission met on Monday and, as of Monday night, the Demons were awaiting details of the final charges to be laid by the league.
Earlier on Tuesday, Jim Stynes' widow said the reputation of the former Melbourne president Jim Stynes will not be tarnished by any finding the club deliberately lost matches during his leadership.
Stynes, who died almost a year ago, was club president in 2009 when the club was alleged to have deliberately lost matches in its efforts to secure better draft picks.
