Brian Cuban, on his website, briancuban.com has introduced a contest in writing an essay about how to combat bullying. The winner will receive two platiinum level seats to a Mavericks game.
Individuals with disabilities are more aware than most of the difficulties in dealing with bullies. Bullies, it seems, have a type of sixth sense that allows them to identify those that lack the resources to fight back. It is, no doubt, caused by the bully's own feelings of inadequacy that they have the need to ridicule and physically assault others, thereby making them seem more important. Understanding the psychological dynamic does not help with dealing with bullies. Awareness, though can be a good tool.
Society has long seemed to believe the problem was within the weaker kid not standing up for himself. You just had to look at the back of a 60's era comic book where a Charles Atlas cartoon, showed that the 97 pound weakling just needed to toughen up, so that he could become a bully.
The bullied kid all too often gets no help from teachers and principals, and in fact, any complaints to authority made the bullying only increase.
The only way the prevent bullying is by making it more offensive to our society, to let bullies and potential bullies know that such behavior is not to be tolerated, and more importantly to begin sending the message that bullying someone else does not make you tough.
We need to have people acknowledge that they were bullied. We do not have to feel ashamed of having been abused. We need a celebrity campaign where celebrities say, "I was bullied," and acknowledge it.
We need teachers and principals that are aware of the need for action, and awareness that bullying destroys live.
We need to tell the victims of bullying they are not alone. We must make sure that kids have within the school a place to go to report bullying and to know that bullying will be dealt with promptly. We have to prove to society that there is no place for bullying.
We have to help other kids stand up for their peers, and understand that reporting bullying is not, "ratting out," the bully but saving the victim. If kids do not feel alone, if they know others stand with them, and bullying is not tolerated, then they do not have to feel isolated.
Bullying is a social disease, it destroys lives, causes suicides, and today is more prevalent than ever. Social media makes bullying from a distance easier. We have to eliminate that, and that includes allowing social media cites to take preemptive action, shutting down profiles created to abuse others.
Our efforts need to assure kids that they are not alone, that there is somewhere to turn, and that action will be taken to protect them. Our children are our most valuable resource and we need to start treating them that way.

The King Richard lll Visitor Centre will open July 26 in Leicester, England.Timed tickets are now on sale for King Richard III: Dynasty, Death and Discovery, Britain's newest visitor attraction.
The Centre will encompass the grave where Richard III's remains were discovered 527 years after they were buried. The pit grave lay beneath a modern parking lot when archaeologists discovered the body in August 2012. The roughly dug trench is now the center of a glass-floored contemplative space for visitors.
The center is located in the former Alderman Newton's School at the heart of the city's Cathedral Quarter. The red brick school forms the backdrop for the royal grave.
In spring 2015, King Richard III will be reinterred in Leicester Cathedral, which is just 100 steps away from the Centre.
The high-tech display will also include a detailed facial reconstruction of the king, as well as a replica of his battle-scarred skeleton that clearly shows the fatal blow to his skull.
King Richard III was Britain's last Plantagenet king, ruling from 1483-1485. He was defeated by Henry Tudor, Earl of Richmond, on Bosworth Battlefield. He was the last British king to die in battle, in the last charge of knights in full medieval armor.
King Richard's skeleton was buried hastily in the choir of Leicester's Grey Friars church, and lost for centuries.
A team of archaeologists from University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) discovered the royal skeleton in his original Grey Friars grave, now under a Leicester municipal parking lot. His royal identity was confirmed in February 2013 through carbon dating and DNA matches with two 17th-generation descendants living today.
The King Richard center will explore all aspects of the sovereign's life and mysterious disappearance.
Dynasty tells the story of the king's life and times in medieval England and his rise to power.
Death presents the key players in the Battle of Bosworth and how betrayal led to the king being cut down while defending his crown.
Discovery will reveal perhaps the greatest archaeological detective story ever told, including the latest science and analysis used in the rediscovery and identification of Richard III.

When a couple gets divorced, their friends often find themselves in an awkward position. Do they stay friends with both exes after the papers are signed? Or, do they choose only one of them to continue their friendship with? It's clear that everyone faces many questions on how to proceed after a divorce. While each person should stop, pause and treat the others as they would want to be treated themselves, that's not always the case.
As a friend as well as a divorcee, I've been in this position before. I had been friends with a woman since we were in grammar school. Her husband had been really good friends with my then husband. Not too long after their divorce, we had a big event so I invited both of them to the party. My friend attended and when she found out that her ex was also invited, she became furious with me. Our relationship suffered severely because of it. I didn't know quite how to deal with it and it's really hard when you're in that situation. On the flipside, I had some very close friends when I was married and after I got divorced, they still stayed close to both myself and my ex. In fact, they have warmly accepted my remarriage as well as my ex-husband's and remain friends with all of us. Sure it's an extra couple of holiday cards, but isn't it more mature and what friendship is all about?
Newly divorced people really need friends to help them through the process. It's important to put the negativity aside and support your friends no matter what. The divorced couple should be thrilled when their friends stay friends with both parties. However, sometimes you end up getting "sideswiped." It seems that it has unfortunately become a natural reaction for friends to often pick sides when a couple they know is divorcing. While friends usually assume the divorced couple is at odds, sometimes they actually aren't and the break-up was a mutual decision. If they are at odds, picking sides will only make matters worse. Nobody should take sides – not the divorced couple or the friends. It's important for all to stay neutral and for everyone to not lose sight of the fact that you all had a friendship before the papers were filed. There's no need to divorce your friends too at this sensitive time.
Contrary to popular belief, divorce is NOT contagious. Some married friends prefer to avoid the subject of divorce like a traffic jam. If a married couple hears that friends of theirs are getting divorced, they feel it could "rub off on them." If friends of a divorced couple are having problems in their own marriage, I got news for you – those problems were there before they heard about your divorce! I've even heard some stories about friends becoming paranoid and worrying that their spouse could run off with one of their newly divorced friends. If you considered them real friends before the divorce, why would those worries even come up?
Many friends will feel bad for you after a divorce. They will try to sympathize with you or give you that "Are you okay?" look every time you see them for a while afterwards. One way for a divorced couple to ease the transition for themselves and their friends, is to let everyone know that you're both doing well and moving ahead. Using social media platforms like Facebook to update all of the great happenings will certainly reflect the exciting aspects of your new lives. As soon as you're okay with the divorce, your friends will feel more at ease with it as well. I had a friend who divorced her husband and the first time I saw her after her divorce, she greeted me with, "Yes, we're divorced. Yes, he was a difficult man. But all is well and I'm very happy. There's no need to feel uncomfortable so put your concerns to rest." Her speaking up made our visit so much more relaxed.
As divorce rates grow higher in the world today, you can't forget about children. It's important to provide consistency for them. If your children and your friends' children liked to play together before the divorce, then it is important to try to keep your friendships just as strong as it was before. Divorce is hard enough for kids to adjust to and you and your friends need to consider their needs and feelings. Keep the friendships moving forward and have the kids see each other on a normal basis. Loving and uncomplicated should be the vibe in front of your children and your friends' children.
Another way to help ease the transition for everyone is a divorce announcement sent out by you and your ex. Whether it's a mass email, e-card or a card put in the mail, let them know that you appreciate their friendship over the years and will continue to appreciate it as you both head into the next phase of your lives. Your roles as parents and friends should not change even though your domestic life is. In fact, you have both probably realized in this divorce process, that family and friends are at the top of the support ladder
A great way to kick things off in your life now that you're single is a divorce party. You celebrated your marriage, which was a monumental moment in your life. Isn't a divorce just as monumental? It marks a re-birth of you and it's important to celebrate that moment in some way. Inviting your friends to the event will let them know that you have moved on. I have even heard of couples hosting a joint divorce party. If you and your ex are on good terms, maybe consider throwing one together. That might be the ultimate way to show your friends that the side they should be taking is no side.

The National Museum of African American History and Culture is creating a comprehensive collection of fine art to include painting, sculpture, works on paper, art installations, photography, and digital media by and about African Americans. We intend to present American art history through the lens of the African American artist. We also will re-contextualize artwork depicting African Americans by non-black artists. The collection will showcase the various strategies visual artists have used for more than three centuries to comment on significant historical moments, as well as to reflect upon or promote political and social change. By collecting and featuring artworks that encompass a broad range of historical eras, stylistic genres, and regional movements within the context of American art history, we will shift the focus of art by and about African Americans from the periphery of the canon to its core.

Your Sister's Sister Movie Reviews
Your Sister's Sister

User reviews on Your Sister's Sister
I absolutely loved this film and highly recommend seeing it in the theaters. The film is warm, naturally funny and it was a real pleasure to watch it. The film seemed to be effortless and it was emotionally charged and those emotions rang true because of the amazing cast who really got their characters and made the audience like those characters. The film was packed with smart observations about modern relationships and it was so easy and fun to watch. It is a little indie film that few people will see and I hope you will be one of them, trust me you will not regret it.
This is a great little independent gem from director Lynn Shelton. It kind of reminded of "Rachel's Getting Married" though that's more because it also stars Rosemarie Dewitt as the sister, except that in this one she's the unstable one who brings in all her issues and drama to the story. Mark Duplass plays his part with great understatement and ethos, making us believe that he really is the longtime best friend of Iris (Emily Blunt) who may also be secretly in love with him. That's probably why she flips out so much when she hears that Jack, whose brother died a year ago, and Hannah (who just broke up a seven-year relationship) find solace in each other. A great little slice-of-life movie that appeals to those who don't want to watch or are sick of the big summer action blockbusters. Highly recommended to fans of thoughtful and engaging cinema.
Emily Blunt is my favorite actress so I guess it's natural that I really loved this movie. It's about two best friends named Iris and Jack (Emily Blunt and Mark Duplass) who try to help each other when Jack's brother passes away. He can't seem to get his life back on track so he decides to do some soul searching in the Pacific Northwest where he meets Hannah, Iris's sister. The two end up being the solution each other's problems but Hannah comes between Iris and Jack.
It sounds kind of soap opera-y, but believe me it's anything but. The situation is handled with lots of comedy so you never feel that it's going to get overly dramatic. It has a very natural feel to the whole thing and you will totally buy the story and the performances. Definitely way better than Blunt's last movie, 'The Five Year Engagement'. Watch it!
I really liked this film and highly recommend seeing it in the theaters. I thought the film was very natural and interesting and I had a great time watching it. The pacing of this film is perfect and every scene seems to be effortless and very realistic. The characters were very well developed and the lead actors were pitch perfect together it was truly a pleasure to watch them work. THe story is interesting and it is well told and I loved that this film had such a big heart, it did not feel forced it was very easy flowing and genuine. Overall, if you are looking for a romantic comedy that has no silly cliches and annoying characters and storylines, look no further.

College Hockey:Miami turns external expectations into motivation
By this point, most college hockey fans know what the 2009-10 Miami RedHawks endured, but it bears repeating, in brief.
Lost the 2009 NCAA championship game in overtime, after leading by two goals going into the last minute.
Lost a dear friend, 21-year-old team manager Brendan Burke, to a car crash in February.
Watched their head coach endure a painful divorce that he spoke of frankly and publicly — and movingly — at the end of the season.
How did Miami respond? By running away with the conference and a second consecutive trip to the Frozen Four, a trip that required them to beat the then-hottest team in the country in NCAA play to advance.
And so it is with complete sincerity and zero chutzpah that head coach Enrico Blasi delivered these lines to the media before the season began:
"We're very appreciative that the media picked us No. 1 and the coaches picked us No. 2. It gives us an opportunity to put a little pressure on our team and focus on what people expect us to be like."
It is time for Miami to measure itself against expectations, something that Blasi would have balked at just a couple of seasons ago. This RedHawks program is now a team in the spotlight. Having two recent assistant coaches chosen to head other CCHA programs doesn't do anything to keep Miami off anyone's radar, either.
In short, the RedHawks have arrived, completely. What's worse for the CCHA is they've brought a bunch of guys with them who have been along for the ride.
From goal out, this team is loaded. "Both Connor Knapp and Cody Reichard … are tremendous young men," Blasi said. "They work extremely hard. They've had a great summer. Both of them are going to play. I'm not sure what the rotation is going to be like. As we know, things happen from week to week. Expect to see both of them and I can tell you that the coaching staff will probably have the last say in who plays."
Miami's defense, first in the nation last year, returns seven players. The RedHawks offense loses only three players who contributed goals; in other words, Miami returns 106 of its 147 goals scored last year.
Carter Camper, Andy Miele, Pat Cannone, Reilly Smith — the list goes on and on. The RedHawks are a threat from any spot on the ice, dangerous in every situation.
"We have a very veteran team, which should help us down the road," Blasi said. "I think that the fact that we are a veteran team we can spend a little more time on special teams and skill development which ultimately will hopefully help us in producing more wins and maybe the big win at the end."

Long Time No Blog - Training Update
Friday, August 16, 2013
So, it's been a while.
At least my training is much more regular than my blogging! (although, looking back at my calendar, that could be debatable...)
So, I got my training runs back up to 2.5 miles a week before the 4th of July when my daughter got sick and I got sick and I had an ear infection and my eardrum ruptured. Then I took an extended weekend to work as a driver on a local fire after the 4th of July.
Finally, after nearly 3 weeks off, I was able to get some sleep and get back into my training.
And the best part? I was able to jump back in to running 2.5 miles with no problem.
Flash forward to this Sunday which was the first 5 mile run of my training program. Today was my second 5 mile run. I'm nowhere near the speed I had in my past half marathons, but that's to be expected when I take a year off to focus on other things.
My last half was the end of June of 2013. It was the Running With the Devil at Lake Mead (50k, marathon, half, 10k, 5k). If you follow my blog (which I totally understand if you don't), you might remember that my back went out 2 weeks before that race and I ended up still managing to complete it as a run-walk.
Well, this year's version I was not in shape for and didn't sign up for, but it ended up being the weekend where we had 2 weeks of record heat here in Las Vegas and even though the race is designed for extreme heat, the NPS got nervous with the forecasts and pulled the permits for the race and they were unable to hold the event at all. With all the difficulties they've had this year and past year, the race organizers decided they would reschedule this year's race to the end of the summer and run one final version and call it "Sympathy for the Devil" and likely stop holding it at all in the future.
I wasn't going to be ready for a half in September, but it was great timing for a 10k, so I signed up to do the "Sympathy for the Devil" 10k.
I'm not enjoying being out of shape and essentially having to start my half marathon training program from scratch. I definitely am not in the shape I had been for my past races. But, I'm looking at this as a building block to future goals and milestones. My wife is encouraging me to finally train to do a full marathon sometime next year. And then after that, it's time to start figuring out how get started with training for an Ironman. And with all my excitement over watching ON2VICTORY's awesome 70.3, I'm even more inspired than ever!
That's all exciting and all well and good, but I can't get too far ahead of myself. Right now it's time to train for this half.
August is the month that I really got rededicated to training. My wife and I joined a DietBet started by our friend and trainer and manager of our local gym. We have from Aug 1 to 31 to lose 4% of our body weight. All this half marathon training is really doing the trick and it's also got me back to using the SparkTracker to get my nutrition back in order. Yesterday, I hit 182 pounds for the first time since the first of September of last year! I can't believe I haven't been under 182 for almost 12 months! Once the DietBet is over I'll be back to a normal BMI and back in maintenance mode which is where I need to be for optimal half marathon training.
The only possible hitch I can see, right now, is that when I drove on the fire, the very beginning of the second day, as I went to get into the giant flat bed truck I was driving, I whacked my right knee on the handle by the side of the door. I can still feel soreness and tenderness in my knee despite the passage of almost a month and a half. That plus running on some newly paved and slightly banked streets and gutters and sidewalks around my neighborhood have made my right leg and knee sore and tight. Time to get out the foam roller a get those kinks worked out. I've been doing to religious icing of my knee for the past few days and I thinks it's helping, but I really need the foam roller to get the rest of my leg loosened back up. As long as I can manage that, and get some semi-regular strength training in to keep my back in check, Lord willing, I should be able to get through my training and have a great race and be ready to move on from there.
And that's where I stand, today.
Thank you, Robert, for your inspiration! I haven't been this energized in over a year! You are a stud.

text: The next test of the administration is the huge bonuses due to Citi employees. Citi, as you may recall, was the recipient of tens of billions of taxpayer bailout money. One trader, Andrew J. Hall, is contractually due a $100 million bonus all by himself. Will Geithner, et al, have the courage to oppose these outrageous compensation packages, especially when they're paid for with our money? In my fantasy, at least, the Obama administration extends its generous beer outreach to Wall Street. He can even make it a premium brew, in deference to the lifestyle these scoundrels are used to.

It is with great sadness that the world has been shocked with the news of the death of Steve Jobs. It was his visionary leadership, innovative passion, and determination the help to evolve Apple into the technology giant that has become. He was only 56, but lost his battle with pancreatic cancer today.
It is also time then, to revisit a cause of his passing. No, it was not old age nor an accident, but rather a disease that, as statistics depict, has or will affect everyone either directly or indirectly. The name of the disease is cancer.
It can be safe to suggest that everyone who has not been afflicted with a form of cancer probably knows someone who has been its victim. For those who have become a survivor, medical advancements have been able to slow down or stop the progression of the disease. Many such individuals are then on a constant watch for "No Evidence of Disease."
As an insurance agent, I am constantly amazed at the costs that some cancers can take on during the fight for health. It is not only the costs for the doctors, medications, and surgeons as necessary, but rather the incidental costs as well. What some people do not realize is that health insurance will only cover a select portion of that price tag, leaving an individual's savings, retirement, generous donors, and welfare to pick up the tab for the incidentals and extra costs.
With October representing the month for breast cancer awareness, it was felt that, in light of Jobs passing, the subject of cancer, in general, needs to be addressed.
Thus, throughout the next few months, a focus on the needs for insurance to cover an individual's open risks is a vital topic. Unfortunately, during times of economic turmoil and unemployment, too often it is an individual's insurance that will lapse due to the lack of money available to pay premiums, deductibles, and copayments. This phenomenon causes further problems in that many insurance premiums are age banded. In simpler terms, as a person ages, their initial premiums on a new policy will generally be higher than if the individual, with the same level of health, were to apply for the same policy and coverage.
Even though Jobs had become rich from the success of his company, a disease like cancer, depending on its location and aggressive nature, can devour thousands of dollars during its fight. While Jobs had been able to continue working for a period of time while undergoing treatments, it was not long before the disease and treatments took its toll and he realized he needed to stop working. For those who are not as well off as Jobs, the loss or reduction of income can be devastating, only adding to the stress.
Adding to the importance of this discussion will be the acknowledgement that cancer does not discriminate with who it challenges. Its victims are not chosen by race, color, nor creed, and age is not a determination of who will survive or who will succumb.
By being armed with the knowledge of how to be better prepared financially, perhaps the fight against a diagnosis of cancer will be a little more manageable.
Watch for further stories and reports throughout the next several weeks.

When I was a little boy, one of my favorite television programs was "To Tell The Truth." It involved a contestant who was given some basic information about a character and then allowed to question three panelists to determine which of the three was the real character. At the end of the questioning, the contestant would cast a vote for the person who was telling the truth. Then in a dramatic climax, the three panelists would each motion as if all three would stand. Finally, the "real" person would stand and declare that he/she was the one telling the truth.
Reading Professor Hick's book reminded me of "To Tell The Truth." It seems to me that the premise of Mr. Hick's work is that if we could assemble the major world religions on a stage (excluding "other smaller and other newer religions, as well as 'primal' religion, and the great secular faiths of Humanism and Marxism," p.11), then questioned them about their core beliefs and asked the one who possessed the true God to stand, none of them would be able to. That is because, according to Hick, each of these religions possesses a part of the truth of God but none of them has the whole truth because God (Hick calls him/her "the Real") is beyond all of them and is not totally present in any single one of them.
Professor Hick calls this premise "The Pluralistic Hypothesis." It holds that "These traditions involve different human conceptions of the Real, with correspondingly different forms of experience of the Real, and correspondingly different forms of life in response to the Real," (27). To illustrate his point, Hick relies on "the psychologist Jastrow's famous ambiguous duck-rabbit picture which Wittgenstein used in his discussion of seeing-as," (24). The major world religions see the same image but from their own contexts and this leads them to interpret it differently. It is here that the major flaw in Hick's project is revealed.
Hick would have us believe that the major religions of the world are responses to an encounter with the same Real. He fails to understand that at least for Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, who profess to be revealed religions, they didn't just see a picture. The picture talked! The Real revealed some fundamental truths to them that form the bedrock of their faith. Moses did not just encounter the burning bush, a voice spoke to him out of the bush and commanded Moses to do certain things. Mary did not one day decide to have a virgin birth in response to a vision, a heavenly visitor appeared to her in the form of an angel and spoke to her.
These claims of the revealed religions are far different than those of the primarily Eastern religions that speak of a journey to enlightenment where certain holy men have visions then they go about interpreting them. It is no wonder then that Hick proposes that Christianity will have to do some major overhauling of its faith claims to join the world stage of pluralism.
The Judeo-Christian tradition will have to give up its claims to superiority and to God incarnate in Jesus Christ as a fact. I fail to understand how Hick could entertain such a thought in a serious way. It is clear from a reading of the long history of these faiths that those truth claims are the very things that give these two religions their uniqueness. The battle between God and Pharaoh, the victory of Daniel over Bel and the Dragon—all attest to the claim that the God of Abraham is a living God unlike the rest of the gods on the stage of human history. The man who died on the cross was both God and man and as such he was able to give his life in return for the release of humanity from a death sentence imposed on Adam and Eve and all of their progeny.
How can such fundamental claims be given up without losing the very essence of one's faith?
I applaud the vision of Professor Hick so far as he instructs us on the universality of God. I celebrate his call for all religious people (though his call is a bit limited) to enter into inter-religious dialogue. I welcome his pointing out that we share more things in common than we think. However, the road he asks us to travel is one too fraught with danger to compel our taking the first step in that direction. To tell the truth, Hick offers us no valid reason to travel any farther than to dialogue with one another about those matters of which we share concern in our civil lives.

This past weekend, I did something I never thought I would do. In a million years. I auditioned for a live show. As in, I wrote an original piece and actually read it, OUT LOUD, in front of a producer and director.
Yes, you may gasp now. I did.
Because auditioning for something like this—to potentially be cast for a show where strangers and friends will sit in the audience—is nowhere, and I mean NOWHERE, in my narrow comfort zone.
Which is what I thought this piece was going to be about. Moving past my comfy place to push myself. Gathering my inner strength to believe that I could be enough.
But the truth is that auditioning for the DC Listen To Your Mother with producer Kate Coveny Hood and Director Stephanie Dulli was actually quite lovely. It was not frightening or intimidating. These two women could have made an Ice Queen melt in their comfortable presence.
And if I am being honest, I was quick to come up with my topic, inspired by the journal of letters that I started writing to my daughter just two days after I found out I was pregnant. It was a piece I was passionate about, a topic I could go on and on and on about for hours, so I was pretty pleased with myself when I belted out the first draft.
I read it, over and over, timing myself to make sure it fit within the three- to five-minute range we had for the audition, and I was feeling pretty darn proud of myself for having taken this step to push my comfort zone by auditioning.
The Real Comfort Zone Pushing Came from Something Else
On Friday (as in two days before the audition) I let my husband read the piece. And then I solicited feedback from a few other ladies whose opinion I truly value. It was not so much that I needed validation as that I needed to make sure the piece actually resonated with someone other than me. The good news is that their feedback, universally, was very supportive of the piece. Other than some grammatical typos and changes, few suggestions were recommended.
You would think that would mean I would leave the piece well enough alone. Well, no. Of course not. For some reason, despite the feedback the more I read it, the more I started adding, tweaking, and adding some more. I added details and facts because somehow I felt like the dots needed to be connected. I did not feel like it painted a vivid picture or left a listener with any sensory details.
And then (as in only a few hours before I was scheduled to leave for the audition) I asked my husband to read it again. And he did not love it. He preferred the first piece. He felt like the revised piece was too factual. It was not bad he said, but he liked the vagueness of the first draft. Which of course put me into a tailspin.
Here's the thing. I really did admire and respect the feedback from my friends (and husband) on the piece. I was not trying to intentionally disrespect the time they took out of their family time to read my piece.
But have you ever had one of those times when you know better, but you start fiddling with something anyway? It is as if you can't help yourself from "making it better" up until the very last minute, until you end up with a mess. Or maybe not. Depending on who you ask.
That was me. I walked into my audition with a neat and tidy red folder filled with my audition paperwork and THREE drafts of the same piece. In my head I knew which one I thought I should read…the one with more details. But my heart tugged. Had I overshadowed my feelings with superfluous facts? Was I telling the same story everyone already knows?
My discomfort ended up being about what instinct to trust, and knowing when was enough.
What I was left with, after the audition, was a realization. We each have a story. Whether you fill it with facts and details, or you skim the surface, it is our own story. That is what the Listen to Your Mother show is all about. There is no wrong way to tell your story, because it is YOUR story.
Yes, there are of course the quantifiable decisions of who is cast and who is not cast. And while I would be so incredibly honored to be part of the DC cast, I walked away from the audition yesterday feeling content. Knowing that I had been inspired by journal letters to "my darling baby" oh-so-many years ago when she was but a grain of rice. Knowing that I had created a new letter to my daughter – one that, one day, I will read to her (although I think she might have been eavesdropping as I rehearsed). Knowing that I gave it my all (plus some) and that I was able to turn to some fabulous women whose opinions I respect and admire as writers and as storytellers.
Because who can ask for anything more than having given something your all?
And if that story of moving past my comfort zone was not enough for you today, we have a very special giveaway—inspired by my audition piece inspiration. My inspiration came from a journal, one that I cherished and wrote in prolifically during my pregnancy and beyond. So today one lucky Just.Be.Enough. reader will have the opportunity to own a very special journal of her own. PaperBlanks has been making high quality, beautiful journals for 20 years. Beautiful designs and intricate patterns make writing in these journals a thing of beauty…and one lucky reader will get to choose one of the new designs of midi journals for her very own.
To enter:
Fill out this form by 2/27/2012 at 5 p.m. (EST). Giveaway only open to US residents.
Paperblanks provided a sample journal to me for review. No compensation was received for the post. All opinions are my own.

ELYRIA — Some Elyria locales are being captured in pictures — online pictures, that is.
While Chronicle-Telegram Photographer Bruce Bishop was out on assignment, he caught the Google Street View Car on camera at the Elyria Shopping Center off of state Route 57 — and they caught him, too.
Google Street View, a technology featured in Google Maps and Google Earth, provides panoramic pictures of streets and destinations across the world. The company employs drivers to run their special fleet of Google Maps Camera cars to capture 360 degrees' worth of photo images with the car's 15 lenses.
The driver wouldn't provide his name or any other information. He told Bishop that he'd have to call the headquarters in California for that information.
"He was very nice, for someone who couldn't actually say anything," Bishop said.
The man drove what appeared to be an official Street View car — a painted Subaru with California plates, with a large appendage coming off of the roof, holding what appeared to be camera equipment.
But calling Google is akin to calling the White House — not one individual at the Google headquarters in California, or at any of Google's offices in Ann Arbor, Chicago, or Pittsburgh, could be reached for comment. Google has no offices in Ohio.
Bishop was not allowed to look inside the car. But that didn't mean he didn't try.
"I caught a glimpse of a lot of electronic stuff — monitors and things," he said.
Each Street View car, according to Google's Street View website, is equipped with "motion sensors to track its position, a hard drive to store data, a small computer running the system, and lasers to capture 3-D data to determine distances within the Street View imagery."
When locations are not car-accessible, the Street View team boards trikes and snowmobiles.
Bishop received a tip from a "fellow geek" that the car was in town and sped off to the scene. The car, he said, took two passes around the shopping center and left. Bishop himself was captured by the crew's cameras — it was shooting pictures as he was shooting pictures of it.
According to its website, the Street View team is currently photographing neighboring Medina and Cuyahoga counties, among 13 total in Ohio. Lorain County is not listed, although the website notes that "it is always possible that our cars may … be operating in areas that are not listed."
Google Street View was first introduced in the United States in 2007, and has since expanded to locations globally. Street View first came to the Cleveland area in 2008.

In collaboration with Big Business and special interests, the Obama administration's Department of Health and Human Services is plotting a new program to track Americans' vaccination records, wage a massive propaganda campaign to "encourage" more inoculations, and foist more controversial vaccines on adults against their will.
ObamaCare: Stifling InnovationWritten by Michael Tennant
ObamaCare not only puts a direct tax on the revenues of medical device manufacturers, inhibiting innovation, it has several other features that have the same negative effect.
Kansas has become the first state to ban a second-trimester abortion method. During a private ceremony in his home, Governor Sam Brownback signed the bill on Tuesday that will impose the ban, effective July 1.
ObamaCare's "Cadillac" tax will soon harm employer-sponsored health insurance, causing both businesses and labor unions to pressure Congress to repeal it.
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, despite misgivings about ObamaCare, doesn't want it repealed and doesn't think congressional Republicans do, either.

Many of us will return to a normal schedule today. We face the length of winter with thoughts of drudgery on our minds instead of hope and anticipation. I am blessed with a job I love and see the resumption of "normal" activities as joyous. I know that part of this joy is the anticipation of how Christ will show himself in the opening year.
With a new year we have resolutions and plans. These are often personal challenges to be better than we were last year. If you ask most people in June what New Year's resolution they had ventured forth with, they would say that it had not lasted. What if as Evangelicals we venture into the new week, month, and year with anticipation that following Christ closely will yield real result in seeing him work in our lives.
Christ already knows what it ahead and will lead us through it well if we follow him. None of the challenges we face are bigger than Christ's ability to handle them. Nothing is coming into our lives that we cannot walk through or be carried by Christ if we need it. Instead of going back to the grind, let us get back to the adventure. We are never alone in our journey. Examine yourself Madison, and tell me what you think.

|The Daily Express rounds on Nick Clegg (pictured) for his supporting the muezzin's call to prayer in the UK.
The DE leader comment today reads, 'For him [Clegg] to defend the spread of the muezzin – the often amplified broadcast of the Muslim call to prayer – on grounds that church bells ring to summon the faithful is deeply troubling.
Church bells are a quintessentially British sound and have been for a thousand years and more. The muezzin is an alien one. If world citizen Nick Clegg does not understand that – and he appears not to – then he clearly knows almost nothing about the country he aspires to lead. And that is a perfectly legitimate cause for concern'.
And the Daily Star editorial today supports for the extension of the planned ban on the burqa in France and Belgium to the UK.
From the paper:
'Euro leaders are absolutely right to ban the burka.
'The Muslim veil is almost certain to be outlawed in France. And the Belgians are gearing up to rid their country of the full face veil.
'Britain must now follow suit.
'This has no place in modern Britain. True Islam doesn't demand anyone wear one of these backwards veils. It's time to ban the burka here too.'
Little wonder Richard Desmond's (owner of the Daily Express and Daily Star) paper's are often criticized as being 'recruiting rags for the far-right'.

Russian government officials have ditched their iPads for Samsung tablets, according to an AFP report issued on Wednesday. Although the officials said the move was mad to ensure tighter security, speculation arose that the recent sanctions imposed over the country's takeover of Ukraine's Crimea peninsula had something to do with it.
Apple is, of course, a U.S. company. Samsung is headquartered in South Korea.
Russia did not proactively announce the change. Rather, journalists first noticed the change during a cabinet meeting. Minister Nikolai Nikiforov confirmed the chang "took place not so long ago." Nikiforov added that the new Samsung tablets were "specially protected devices that can be used to work with confidential information." It is unclear if the minister was speaking solely about Samsung's Knox software, or something customized for Russia's use.
"Some of the information at government meetings is confidential in nature and these devices fully meet these demands and have gone through the strictest system of certification."
Nikiforov denied the change was related at all to the Crimea issue. He said, "We are not proposing any sanctions. However, he mentioned that reports that "American special services... will significantly increase the volume of information they intercept of course causes serious concern to many governmental clients. This obviously orientates Russian clients, primarily state ones, to be very choosy about their partners in IT."
Because of this, Nikiforov said, South Korean firms such as Samsung, along with Chinese ones, might be interesting to Russia because of this.

Visiting Hopi Land
Some of the information below has been adapted from the Hopi Cultural Preservation Office. Be sure to see more links at the bottom of this page as well.
The Hopi welcome you as visitors to their land. Here are few things to remember so that your visit will be an enjoyable one.
Visitor etiquette – Please remember common courtesy. Looking into windows or wandering into homes is as rude at Hopi as it would be if a stranger helped himself to a tour of your home. When you visit Hopi land you are a guest on private land. Liberties taken by visitors in the past have led to strict enforcement of regulations by the Hopi. It is a privilege to visit Hopi communities, especially during ceremonies, and visitors must respect regulations. With respect, the visitor to Hopi can enjoy a rewarding experience unlike any other in the world.
Recording and photography – No recording of any type while in and around Hopi villages is allowed. These include, but are not limited to: picture-taking, video recording, audio recording, sketching, and note-taking. These are strictly prohibited especially during ceremonies. Visiting Hopi is a wonderful time to use your mind and heart to record what you are privileged to see. Please note, publication of these observations and/or recordings is both exploitative and prohibited without prior consent from the Hopi Cultural Preservation Office. Witnessing a Hopi ceremony is a privilege, not a right.
When viewing a ceremony – First of all, please note that not all ceremonies are open to the public. Often posted signs indicate who is welcome. If no signs are posted, seek information from local shops or the village community. At ceremonies open to the public, be aware that there are behavorial guidelines to follow. Well-meaning people, who would never think of going up to the altar during a wedding to ask questions, have nonetheless interrupted, distracted, or simply gotten in the way of Hopi ceremonies. Unless you are invited, the simplest rule is to stay out of the way of kivas (ceremonial rooms) and stay on the periphery of dances or processions. Remember that you are here to watch; there is no more rewarding or thoughtful way to visit ceremonies than to be inconspicuous and quiet.
Wear appropriate clothing. Just as you would when going to a wedding or other ceremony, you should consider what you wear when you go to a Hopi ceremony. Long pants or a skirt are favored over shorts or a short skirt, for instance. The desert Southwest is prone to extreme temperature swings, so if you are spending an evening be sure to bring warm clothes and many layers. Sunblock is a good idea year-round.
Please do not touch – If you aren't sure, don't touch it. A visitor to the Southwest might see shrines from many different cultures, including highway-side markers remembering lost loved ones. Some types of shrines are more easily recognized than others, however. Hopi spirituality is very intertwined with daily life, and objects that seem ordinary to you might have deeper significance to the person who placed them. Shrines are placed by sincere individuals and not meant to be disturbed. If you come upon a collection of objects at Hopi and you aren't sure what to do, respect the wishes of the person who left the offerings and take your attention elsewhere.
What to bring when you visit Hopi land – If you are planning to visit the Hopi Reservation in the summer, please take certain precautions. Bring lots of water, a hat, and sunscreen. The sun can be very intense, and the air is very dry. Wear comfortable walking or hiking boots because vehicles are not generally allowed in all villages. In the winter months, dress warmly especially at night. It can get extremely cold and windy on the mesas. Bring extra layers, you can always leave them in your vehicle if you don't need them.
Lodging – The Hopi Cultural Center Motel, located on top of Second Mesa, has thirty units, a restaurant, museum, gift shops and a camping area. They are extremely busy in the summer; therefore, it is strongly recommended that reservations be made at least one month in advance. The telephone number for the Hopi Cultural Center Motel is 928-734-2400. International visitors dial 011-928-734-2400. Contact them through their website.
The Moenkopi Legacy Inn & Suites, located near Tuba City, about 45 miles from Hopi, is the first motel to be built on Hopi tribal land in 50 years. Call 928-283-4500 for reservations or go to their website. Other accommodations can be found in Winslow (61 miles) and Flagstaff (91 miles).
Groceries – One of the main grocery stores is in Kykotsmovi (click here) and stocks pretty much everything you may need during your visit. It also offers a great deli for lunches and snacks.
Dining – The Hopi Cultural Center serves American and traditional Hopi food. As well, there is a cafe in the Keams Canyon near First Mesa. Additionally, several families in each village serve traditional food from their home. For snacks, village stores and privately owned stores located in villages are options.
Gas stations – There are several gas stations on the Hopi Reservation. If you are traveling from the South, the first station is at Keams Canyon, located next to McGee's Store and Cafe. The second is at the convenience store in Polacca. The third is at the Kykotsmovi Village Store inside the village of Kykotsmovi and the fourth is at the Hotevilla Co-Op Store.
Buying Hopi crafts – Arts and crafts can be purchased throughout the Hopi Reservation along Highway 264. Pottery and other arts and crafts are sold directly from villagers' homes and in galleries. Signs posted on house windows reading, "Pottery sold here" or "Kachina dolls sold here" are invitations to stop and view merchandise directly in homes or in small adjacent shops. Look for these shops on the mesas and in the villages. The Hopi Cultural Center also has gift shops with quality crafts.
Telephones – Public phones are scarce, but they can be found near convenience stores in Hotevilla and Polacca. There is also a phone located inside the Hopi Cultural Center Restaurant. Cell phone service is not always reliable.

Occasionally someone will come into the nursery and tell me that their feng shui consultant told them no cactus. Now I have the empirical evidence to convince them otherwise.
There are a couple of different uses for cacti in Feng Shui. One is to shift a stressful energetic experience of another person to something more comfortable….
The other use offers protection and security for your home or office. Please view 'Cactus for Protection' for that information….
You will want to place the cactus in your Fame and Reputation area but not if that is a bedroom or the kitchen.
And by empirical I mean I have evidence that someone else says that cacti can be good feng shui.

First training session takes place
by Stuart Vose
Coach Chisholm meets Kotoko's under-18 side.
International development coach Gordon Chisholm wasted no time in getting out on the training field after touching down in Ghana.
The former Sunderland player is in the country for a week to work with the young players of club partners Asante Kotoko and held his first training session today.
Chisholm is working with the Porcupines' under-18 side and will also take in a game later this week.
The Scot put the young players through their paces and will continue to provide expertise and support to players and coaches.
Chisholm is also set to watch the national side play before heading to South Africa next week to link up with Bidvest Wits.
The trip is part of a burgeoning partnership between Sunderland and Asante Kotoko, who were crowned Ghanaian champions last season.

Every man heals himself. Janet Morris

Mysticism has been in the past and probably ever will be one of the great powers of the world and it is bad scholarship to pretend the contrary. You may argue against it but you should no more treat it with disrespect than a perfectly cultivated writer would treat (say) the Catholic Church or the Church of Luther no matter how much he disliked them. William Butler Yeats

We follow the mystics. They know where they are going. They, too, go astray, but when they go astray they do so in a way that is mystical, dark, and mysterious. Ryszard Kapuściński

What does mysticism really mean? It means the way to attain knowledge. It's close to philosophy, except in philosophy you go horizontally while in mysticism you go vertically. Elie Wiesel
- 10+ 1- 0
Uncontrolled, the hunger and thirst after God may become an obstacle, cutting off the soul from what it desires. If a man would travel far along the mystic road, he must learn to desire God intensely but in stillness, passively and yet with all his heart and mind and strength. Aldous Huxley

The CHP has released the name of a pedestrian who was hit by a big rig in Redding early Wednesday morning.
The victim is Logan Davis, 22, of Eagan, Minnesota. He is in critical condition at Mercy Medical Center in Redding.
The collision happened at 2:15 a.m. on northbound Interstate 5 near the Cypress Avenue on-ramp.
A CHP sergeant says a group of friends were drinking on the east side of the freeway in the Hilltop area when they decided to take a short cut across the freeway to get to their motel on the other side.
Two of them hopped the fence running alongside I-5.
Davis apparently ran out in front of his friend and was hit by a logging truck carrying a full load.
The CHP said Davis suffered major injuries to his legs and head.
The crash caused the on-ramp from Cypress Ave. on to Interstate-5 to close for nearly an hour.

A serving of lasagna contains 21 grams of saturated fat (an entire days worth). A plate of cheese nachos has 25 grams. Cheese is everywhere. Its in salads and sandwiches. Its melted on greasy burgers and lean chicken breasts. It coats french fries. Its glopped onto steaming baked potatoes.
According to food labels, a serving of cheese is one ounce. That aint much. One-and-a-half slices of process (American) cheese will do it. So will one slice of Swiss or provolone, a 1 1/4-inch cube of cheddar or most other hard cheeses, or the cheese on a slice of pizza from a large pie.
Parmesan and Romano are just as fatty as other cheeses, but theyre so flavorful that two (grated) tablespoons are all it may take to zip up a bowl of pasta or most any other dish. That means just three grams of fat (two of them saturated).
In 1970 the average American ate a little over 11 pounds of cheese. By 1998 it had jumped to 28 pounds. Thats more than two pounds a month.
If you were trying to damage your heart, you couldnt do much better than to eat a cheeseburger. The fatty ground beef is bad enough without the fat-laden cheese. Add cheese to your McDonalds Quarter Pounder or Burger King Whopper, for example, and youll swallow an extra five grams of saturated fat (a quarter of your daily maximum).
An ounce of mozzarella has less fat (six grams) and saturated fat (four grams) than most other cheeses. But part-skim mozzarella is something of a fraud. It saves you just one gram of total fat (almost all of it saturated) for every ounce you eat.
A four-ounce slice of Pizza Huts Pan Cheese Pizza has 14 grams of fat, six of them saturated. Make it a four-ounce slice of Dominos Hand Tossed Cheese Pizza and youll get about half as much of each. Your best pizza strategy: Ask for your pie with half the usual amount of cheese. And, whatever you do, stay away from cheese-stuffed-crust pizzas and Pizza Huts new The Insider, which has an extra layer of cheese between its two crusts.

The one liquid cooling review I have to give you comes from MODTHEBOX, the Cooler Master AquaGate Mini R80. If you are wondering, it's an 80mm-based radiator, and you can also get a 120mm version. It has no abliilty to add video cooling to it, so here's a few new coolers below, in case you need 'em!
"One unique aspect of the Cooler Master AquaGate Mini R80 is the inclusion of an integrated pump and reservoir housing. This all-in-one solution works well with case interiors tight on free space.

GruntvillE has put together a nice review on the Aerocool Gatewatch fan contoller.
The Gatewatch unit is made of a plastic material that matches the aluminum cases very well. This unit comes in silver aluminum and black only. The front plate is plastic, but the base of the unit is aluminum. Recently I reviewed the Coolpanel from Aerocool, which was made entirely of plastic, which made mounting the unit difficult. I do not expect the plastic screwholes to last long.

STARKVILLE, Miss. – Mississippi State plays its next-to-last non-conference game of the season Wednesday, traveling to No. 15/16 South Alabama. First pitch is set for 6 p.m. CT.
The Bulldogs enter Wednesday with a 30-12 record, which is the third-best 42-game mark in program history, just one victory behind the 2000 and 2008 squads. MSU has picked up 27 non-conference wins already this season. One more would tie for the most since 2008 as that squad also claimed 28 non-league victories.
Mississippi State and South Alabama have played four times, all since the beginning of the 2009 campaign, and are even at 2-2 in the series. MSU won the first two meetings, 5-2 on April 8, 2009, and 7-2 on Feb. 9, 2012. The Jaguars have answered with wins in the last two contests, 3-2 on Feb. 7, 2013, and 3-0 on May 18, 2013.
The last meeting proved to be the 2013 campaign's final contest for the Bulldogs as South Alabama eliminated MSU from the NCAA Mobile Regional last spring. In that game, Jaguar pitcher Farish Beard limited Mississippi State to one hit and three walks while striking out 14. An unearned run in the second and two runs in the third provided all the offense South Alabama needed. Julie Moss led the Jaguar offense with two hits, a run scored and one batted in while Logan Foulks tallied the Bulldogs' lone hit.
Senior Sam Lenahan has enjoyed success in games versus South Alabama as she owns a.429 batting average (four-for-seven) with two runs batted in, three walks and a .600 on-base percentage in three career contests versus the Jaguars.
MSU returns to home action Friday through Sunday as part of Super Bulldog Weekend. Mississippi State hosts Alabama for a three-game series. First pitch Friday is slated for 5 p.m. CT while the Sunday game will start at 6 p.m. and the Sunday contest at 1 p.m.

i have been having contractions for the past week just not constant. their more around eight minutes apart then four minutes then seven minutes then they stop and go away for a while then come back.posted 10/07/2010 by boo_baby_spook
Dilation/effacement prior to the onset of active labor have NOTHING AT ALL TO DO WITH WHEN YOU WILL GO INTO LABOR. Please bear in mind that while having a baby at 38 weeks *is* normal, it is even more likely you will be here another two or three weeks. Average length for a first pregnancy is just over 41 weeks. If you're not having contractions, there's no reason to think the baby will come tonight.posted 10/07/2010 by SabraO

Jenny McCarthy
Chicago, Illinois
"All those girls who were mean to me [in high school], I pay them back by going through the drive-through window and asking for my burger. That feels really great."
- Jenny McCarthy
Jenny McCarthy began her career as Playboy's 1994 Playmate of the Year. Since her sexy pictorial, the busty blonde has hosted MTV's Singled Out and appeared in such comedies as BASEketball (1998), Scream 3 (2000) and Scary Movie 3 (2003) with Pamela Anderson. She's also the voice of Agent Tanya in the video game Command and Conquer: Red Alert 3.
In addition to her celebrity, Jenny McCarthy became the spokesperson for Talk About Curing Autism after learning that her son, Evan, had been diagnosed with the disease in 2005. Her subsequent book, Louder than Words: A Mother's Journey in Healing Autism was published in 2007, despite much controversy regarding her stance on the disease.
In addition to her celebrity, Jenny McCarthy became the spokesperson for Talk About Curing Autism after learning that her son, Evan, had been diagnosed with the disease in 2005. Her subsequent book, Louder than Words: A Mother's Journey in Healing Autism was published in 2007, despite much controversy regarding her stance on the disease.
Jenny McCarthy also received publicity for her book Louder than Words: A Mother's Journey in Healing Autism, becoming the spokesperson for Talk About Curing Autism, after her son was diagnosed. Her publication has since been the subject of much controversy in associated medical fields.
Jenny McCarthy BiographyJennifer McCarthy was born on November 1, 1972, in Chicago, Illinois, to a middle-class Irish Catholic family. She is the second of four daughters. Her mother, Linda, was a hairdresser, while her father, Dan, was a steel mill foreman.
In 1992, Jenny McCarthy was scrambling for money to pay for her second year of nursing studies at Southern Illinois University. Deciding that her talents would be better spend modelling, she sent her photo to Playboy and was accepted to model for the magazine in October of 1993.
Jenny McCarthy in PlayboyJenny McCarthy posed for the October issue of the magazine and was paid $20,000 for the job. Her modeling career took off when she was named Playmate of the Month, and then Playmate of the Year in 1994. Her salary was elevated to $100,000.
In 1994, Jenny McCarthy decided to leave her hometown of Chicago in search of stardom, landing in Los Angeles.
Jenny McCarthy Hosts Singled OutJenny McCarty had difficulty finding work in Hollywood after her move. Ray Manzella, Jenny McCarthy's live-in boyfriend and manager at the time, was incessant on her behalf. She finally got an interview at MTV and landed a co-hosting position on the network's Singled Out. She was an immediate success, handling hungry contestants with a vulgar and playfully violent attitude.
She later became a full-fledged VJ, earning an impressive $500,000 for the year. Jenny McCarthy decided to leave Singled Out in 1997 and focus her efforts on creating a new MTV sketch-variety series, The Jenny McCarthy Show.
Also in 1997, Playboy banked on Jenny McCarthy's success by putting her on the cover of their magazine. In 2005, Jenny McCarthy returned to her hosting roots for a show on E! called Party at the Palms. The reality show was filmed at The Palms Hotel in Las Vegas and featured hotel guests and celebrities partying with Jenny McCarthy.
Although Jenny McCarthy's career escalated, she has led a tumultuous love life. Filing from divorce from Asher in 2005, she began dating funnyman Jim Carrey later that year. These days, Jenny McCarthy has been linked to NFLer Brian Urlacher.
Jenny McCarthy on FilmJenny McCarthy decided to move her TV success to the big screen, appearing in 1998 in the movie BASEketball with Trey Parker and Matt Stone.
In January 1999, shortly after breaking up with Manzella, she began dating film director John Asher. The two married on September 11th of that year. In 2000, Jenny McCarthy continued her stint on the big screen with a role in Scream 3 alongside David Arquette and Neve Campbell. She later appeared in Scary Movie 3 with fellow Playmate Pamela Anderson. In May of that same year, Jenny McCarthy gave birth to her son, Evan Joseph.
In 2005, Jenny McCarthy tried her hand at producing and writing with the film Dirty Love, which also starred Carmen Electra, who originally took over Jenny McCarthy's role on Singled Out. Jenny McCarthy also appeared in John Tucker Must Die alongside Brittany Snow and Sophia Bush. In addition, she is known for her work on the online show In The Motherhood, costarring Chelsea Handler and Leah Remini.

VWR International, a Radnor, Pennsylvania-based global distributor of laboratory supplies and services, will distribute Illumina's qPCR portfolio including the Eco™ real-time PCR system and NuPCR™ reagents within the U.S. According to Illumina, the agreement will extend the company's reach for its Eco system and NuPCR probe-based technology into thousands of laboratories and facilities nationwide.
"Complementing Illumina's commercialization efforts with VWR's team of sales and services representatives enables us to significantly expand promotion and support of both the Eco System and NuPCR reagents in molecular biology laboratories throughout the United States," said Mark Lewis, svp and general manager of Illumina's molecular biology and PCR business. "We are very excited to join forces with VWR to accelerate adoption of our qPCR portfolio, particularly into the pharmaceutical and industrial markets where VWR has a strong presence."
Illumina's Eco real-time PCR system is a compact instrument that allows researchers to perform any qPCR application directly on their bench top and is an alternative to traditional large, expensive PCR instruments. The company's NuPCR probe-based qPCR technology is designed to show specificity and sensitivity to complex gene targets.

Watched the full Sonicstate video of this from NAMM and I have to say - the Soundcraft engineer describing it was fabulous - he really inspired confidence in it and in Soundcraft as a company. This is one fantastic mixer. I use an 01V96 and am very happy with it so won't be in the market for one of these, but I felt compelled to say here what a stunning job soundcraft seems to have done with this mixer and how brilliantly they described it at NAMM. I have nothing to so with Soundcraft - just pointing out their extra special presentation at NAMM for an very capable mixer. If I was in the market for one I buy one and I wish Soundcraft success with this mixer.
