i am using hp 1050 c to print a map from autocad 2007 , i have mutlipule lines of arabic and persian text on the map. the text are just fine in the dwg file but when printing the map, texts get inverse and mirrored (e.g. book --> koob i cant show the mirrored part :D ) do you guys know any solution for this? i have autocad 2007 on xp and all drivers installed. thnx

This question came from our site for professional and enthusiast programmers.
I have worked with AutoCAD for years. I have seen similar problems with other (high end HP) printers. The fix was to switch from using the hppcl printer driver to using the postscript printer driver. I do not know if a PS driver exists for your printer. The best place to seek a better answer would be the AutoCAD forums

text: ♪ Hello World! This team has been my standard RU team for quite a while, and I've had great success with it, getting 25% of the way to a Tiering Contributor Badge, winning the tenth RU minitour, and doing altogether not terribly at the RU Premier League. Unfortunately, I took it on a ladder trip to record a peak for this RMT and kept losing to Molk. ;~; At First Glance [box][/box] Snover @ Focus Sash Trait: Snow Warning EVs: 252 SpA - 252 Spe - 4 Atk Mild Nature (SpA ↑, Def ↓) | Blizzard | Giga Drain | Hidden Power [Rock] | Ice Shard | The first Pokémon I chose when I was building this team was Snover. This was, rather understandably, a no-brainer, because it is literally impossible to make a good Hail team without a Snover. The set is a pretty standard one, and because I found the immediate damage more appealing than the arguable utility of a SubSeed set, Snover takes on the task of destroying unwary opposing leads should the opponent choose their lead unwisely. As is to be expected, Blizzard kills anything weak to Ice, usually Aerodactyl, Druddigon, Archeops and various Stealth Rock setters. Kabutops and Quagsire fall to Giga Drain, which also dealing passable damage to many opposing Slowking hoping to tank out Snover. Hidden Power Rock is where this set becomes interesting; while the conventional Hidden Power Fire allows Snover to 2HKO (and thus win against) Escavalier, Hidden Power Rock carries an element of surprise when used against opposing Entei, Moltres and Typhlosion which try to set up their Substitutes or start an Eruption spree. It doesn't help much that most of the players on the Pokemon Showdown! RU ladder somehow have never heard of the concept of a Focus Sash Snover. Ice Shard usually deals the killing blow to Galvantula, Accelgor and other Pokémon which are just out of KO range from Blizzard + Hail damage. Snover strong <3 Unfortunately, Snover is stopped cold (haha get it >_>) by many of the walls that inhabit the tier, like Uxie and Cryogonal. That's what the next team member is for, though... Escavalier @ Leftovers Trait: Overcoat EVs: 248 HP - 252 Atk - 8 SpD Brave Nature (Atk ↑, Spe ↓) IVs: 0 Spe | Iron Head | Megahorn | Swords Dance | Substitute | Escavalier is an absolutely beastly wallbreaker. Once Slowking manages to get Trick Room up, Escavalier can usually wreak a ton of havoc with the opponent's team thanks to its incredible Attack stat and the rather surprising Substitute. Plus, Overcoat means it doesn't take Hail damage, which lets it stall out Stallrein, Poliwrath, and Qwilfish: 0 Atk Qwilfish Waterfall vs. 248 HP / 0 Def Escavalier: 79-94 (23.03 - 27.4%) -- possible 4HKO (62.5% chance to break sub) 0 SpA Poliwrath Scald vs. 248 HP / 8 SpD Escavalier: 61-73 (17.78 - 21.28%) -- possible 5HKO (0% chance to break sub) 0 SpA Walrein Blizzard vs. 248 HP / 8 SpD Escavalier: 59-69 (17.2 - 20.11%) -- possible 5HKO (0% chance to break sub) Substitute may be a rather unorthodox choice, but it is a really effective one. Standard Poliwrath, Qwilfish, and any Walrein not running Surf can't break its Substitute with a single hit, allowing Escavalier to set up comfortably if it wants to; furthermore, with a Substitute up, our little escargot friend doesn't have to worry about a stray Will-O-Wisp or Scald from opposing Spiritomb, Dusknoir or Poliwrath. Unfortunately, Escavalier's somewhat limited STABs mean it can't do much towards hurting Steelix or any Fire-type at all very seriously. Thankfully we have Slowking for that. Slowking @ Leftovers Trait: Regenerator EVs: 248 HP - 252 SpA - 8 SpD Quiet Nature (SpA ↑, Spe ↓) IVs: 0 Spe | Trick Room | Surf | Fire Blast | Psyshock | As excellent a tank and sponge as always, Slowking is a great boon to the team, if not absolutely essential to its success. First and foremost, Slowking provides a great switch-in to Typhlosion, Entei, and so forth, threats which ruin the rest of this team. It's also a greatly underestimated and formidable sweeper under Trick Room, due in part to the average ladderer's ignorance regarding the ability of Slowking to learn Fire Blast. Thanks to its excellent coverage and bulk, the only opponents Slowking isn't able to do anything to under Trick Room are generally Uxie and opposing Slowking, as well as priority users such as Spiritomb and Absol. Thankfully, these are mainly stopped dead in their tracks by the other half of the Slowking-Escavalier core. Entei @ Choice Band Trait: Pressure EVs: 252 Atk - 252 Spe - 4 SpA Adamant Nature (Atk ↑, SpA ↓) | Flare Blitz | Stone Edge | ExtremeSpeed | Hidden Power [Grass] | Woof. The canine from hell makes a reappearance, spreading fire and brimstone to anything and everything that gets in its way. While originally intended to be a secondary physical sweeper, Entei has surprisingly proven somewhat more useful than Medicham, thanks to the fact that Entei actually has some bulk and generally doesn't fall apart under any offensive pressure. This set is literally a copy of Smogon's standard Choice Band Entei set. For most intents and purposes, Flare Blitz takes out just about anything the opponent can use, even 2HKOing non-physically bulky Slowking. ExtremeSpeed is very useful for speedy glass cannons such as Cinccino as well as finishing off weakened opponents; furthermore, it can be used even during Trick Room, allowing Entei to carry out suicide missions during Trick Room, removing an opposing Pokémon while also allowing Escavalier a free switch-in paving the way for a sweep. Worth noting is the fact that Stone Edge isn't actually of much use most of the time, but I honestly can't think of anything that might be more useful in its place. Rotom-Frost @ Choice Scarf Trait: Levitate EVs: 252 SpA - 252 Spe - 4 SDef Timid Nature (Spe ↑, Atk ↓) IVs: 0 Atk | Trick | Blizzard | Thunderbolt | Volt Switch | Who knew refrigerators could be so deadly? Rotom-Frost is capable of tearing holes in many teams once the opponent's bulky Psychics and Steels are mostly gone, because a surprising number of RU Pokémon are weak to either Blizzard or Thunderbolt. In fact, a lot of Pokémon in general are either weak to Blizzard or Thunderbolt. Not only does a Choice Scarf allow Rotom-F to hit hard and fast, but it is also a powerful weapon when Tricked to many tanks like Clefable and Quagsire, which are essentially powerless when their Leftovers are replaced with a Choice Scarf, usually allowing Slowking to set up Trick Room or Escavalier to set up Substitute. Volt Switch increases Rotom's mobility, letting it hit its target while swapping to a better check or counter at the same time. Medicham (M) @ Life Orb Trait: Pure Power EVs: 252 Atk - 252 Spe - 4 Def Jolly Nature (Spe ↑, SpA ↓) | Fake Out | Bullet Punch | ThunderPunch | Hi Jump Kick | As far as physical offense goes, it's hard - if not impossible - to top Medicham. Originally, my team was having plenty of trouble with Clefable for some unfathomable reason (I really have no idea why). At first, I used Hitmonlee, until I realised that it really wasn't a very good fit on this team. Besides having sky-high Attack, Medicham can actually hurt opposing Slowking pretty badly with ThunderPunch, unlike most of the other Fighting-types in the tier. While the residual damage from its Life Orb and Hail might pose a threat to Medicham's longevity, it could be argued that Medicham doesn't have much bulk in the first place; plus, Life Orb enables it to take out any non-physically bulky Slowking with a Fake Out + ThunderPunch combo (I think). Medicham also works pretty well against opposing HP Fire Snover leads, which I had quite a bit of trouble with otherwise because their sash is incredibly annoying. Medicham can also swap in and out of difficult opponents, while being able to deal damage to them over time through a combination of Fake Out and Hail damage. A Last Look Back [box][/box] I hope you've enjoyed my team and my RMT; I certainly enjoyed making them! I've left a directly importable version of it below, so you can give it a spin on the ladder if you like. I really don't think there's much else to say here except thanks for reading (and taking the time to rate??) my RMT! ~~~~~~ Importable: Code: Snover @ Focus Sash Trait: Snow Warning EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Mild Nature - Blizzard - Giga Drain - Hidden Power [Rock] - Ice Shard Escavalier @ Leftovers Trait: Overcoat EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 SDef Brave Nature IVs: 0 Spd - Iron Head - Megahorn - Swords Dance - Substitute Slowking @ Leftovers Trait: Regenerator EVs: 248 HP / 252 SAtk / 8 SDef Quiet Nature IVs: 0 Spd - Trick Room - Surf - Fire Blast - Psyshock Entei @ Choice Band Trait: Pressure EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SAtk / 252 Spd Adamant Nature - Flare Blitz - Stone Edge - ExtremeSpeed - Hidden Power [Grass] Rotom-Frost @ Choice Scarf Trait: Levitate EVs: 252 SAtk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd Timid Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Trick - Blizzard - Thunderbolt - Volt Switch Medicham @ Life Orb Trait: Pure Power EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd Jolly Nature - Fake Out - Bullet Punch - Hi Jump Kick - ThunderPunch

Released: Aug 01st, 2006
Running Time: 108
Director: Craven Moorehead
Company: NorthStar Associates
Cast: Lily Thai, Delilah Stone, Craven Moorehead, Haley Paige, Dirty Harry, Krystal Steal, Melissa Lauren, Andrew Andretti, Joel Lawrence, Lee Stone
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Gonzo
A mild cuckold theme fuels this collection featuring happy sluts doing what they do best. Melissa Lauren is a platinum blonde this time out, and she shines in the opening number: a rough d.p. session with Dirty Harry and Andrew Andretti, which includes lots of face-jamming, slapping and spitting. Delilah Strong also gets some rough treatment in the reasonably hot finale.
Lee Stone makes his way around all three of Haley Paige's inputs in another strong outing, but the two remaining scenes with Asian cutie Lily Thai and blonde "Barbie"-type Krystal Steal are unmemorably average.
Retailing: Stock with gonzo or general hardcore.

Just a quick question about pointing my new domain name to a blog on WP.
I have a blog up and running and nearly ready for publishing. It is in the root/blogname directory within my files list on my hosting server.
I have bought a domain name with another company and want to point it to my blog. I think I have worked this out but when I click to visit another page or post within my blog the URL reverts back from the new domain name to my hosts original wordpress URL.
How do I get a domain name pointing at my blog to stay the same for all pages?

I'm new to WordPress and extremely frustrated with it so far. In part because I'm just too busy to take the time to learn CSS; perhaps there's a better option for the time-pressed would-be blogger that someone can point me to. I'm frustrated because I know what I want, and I could create it in minutes in Dreamweaver using HTML, but in this environment I can't accomplish anything.
All of the themes I find have the same feature that I dislike: The title of the blog appears as text, sometimes on top of a graphic. If I delete that text, then it's also gone from the browser's title bar.
What I want is a title bar which has a graphic (my site's logo, with text as part of the graphic) on the left side, and ad space (Google, Project Wonderful, etc.) on the right side. The title text should appear in the browser's title bar but NOT as text on the page itself.
Is this impossible with WordPress?

Targeted Cancer Therapies: Questions and Answers
In this article
Key Points
- Targeted cancer therapies use drugs that block the growth and spread of cancer by interfering with specific molecules involved in carcinogenesis (the process by which normal cells become cancer cells) and tumor growth (see Questions 1, 2, and 3).
- Because scientists call these molecules "molecular targets," therapies that interfere with them are sometimes called "molecular-targeted drugs," "molecularly targeted therapies," or other similar names (see Question 1).
- The National Cancer Institute's Molecular Targets Development Program is working to identify and evaluate molecular targets (see Question 6).
1. What are targeted cancer therapies?
Targeted cancer therapies use drugs that block the growth and spread of cancer. They interfere with specific molecules involved in carcinogenesis (the process by which normal cells become cancer cells) and tumor growth. Because scientists call these molecules "molecular targets," these therapies are sometimes called "molecular-targeted drugs," "molecularly targeted therapies," or other similar names. By focusing on molecular and cellular changes that are specific to cancer, targeted cancer therapies may be more effective than current treatments and less harmful to normal cells.
Most targeted cancer therapies are in preclinical testing (research with animals), but some are in clinical trials (research studies) or have been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Targeted cancer therapies are being studied for use alone, in combination with each other, and in combination with other cancer treatments, such as chemotherapy.
2. What are some of the cellular changes that lead to cancer?
Normally, cells grow and divide to form new cells as the body needs them. When cells grow old, they die, and new cells take their place. Sometimes this orderly process goes wrong. New cells form when the body does not need them, and old cells do not die when they should. These extra cells can form a mass of tissue called a growth or tumor. The cells in malignant (cancerous) tumors are abnormal and divide without control or order. They can invade and damage nearby tissues and organs. Also, cancer cells can break away from a malignant tumor and spread to other parts of the body.
Normal cell growth and division are largely under the control of a network of chemical and molecular signals that give instructions to cells. Genetic alterations (changes) can disrupt the signaling process so that cells no longer grow and divide normally, or no longer die when they should. Alterations in two types of genes can contribute to the cancer process. Proto-oncogenes are normal genes that are involved in cell growth and division. Changes in these genes lead to the development of oncogenes, which can promote or allow excessive and continuous cell growth and division. Tumor suppressor genes are normal genes that slow down cell growth and division. When a tumor suppressor gene does not work properly, cells may be unable to stop growing and dividing, which leads to tumor growth.

UK launches universal ban on legal highs
29 May 2015 News and Analysis
The government will make it illegal to sell any psychoactive substance in a bid to crack down on designer drugs
Politicians in New Zealand have decided to ban designer drugs from sale in the country, reversing an earlier decision to approve low risk drugs while new laws are put in place.
The new Psychoactive Substances Act – passed last year – will allow new psychoactive drugs ('legal highs') to be sold legally as long as their manufacturers carry out clinical trials and demonstrate they are safe. The first phase of the plan saw 41 substances – those thought to be the least harmful – given temporary approval as part of a 'transitional period' to the new laws.
But the government has now suspended these approvals, saying that all legal highs should be banned until they have been proven to be low risk. Health minister Peter Dunne said this was because of a recent increase in reports of adverse side-effects potentially linked to these substances. An amendment will be discussed in parliament on 8 May, so drugs that are currently approved could be withdrawn from the market within a fortnight.
The transitional period was originally introduced to prevent a black market for legal highs developing, and the newly announced ban seems to contradict the government's earlier stance. It is unclear how this will affect the overall plan for legalisation.

Just out of curiosity, what is the verb form of inception? My (uneducated) guesses are incept and inceive.

This question is too basic; it can be definitively and permanently answered by a single link to a standard internet reference source designed specifically to find that type of information.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
There is none in current use! The verb with the same meaning is "to begin".
From here:
"Incept" now primarily means "to take in; ingest". However, according to Merriam-Webster, it has an archaic meaning (now out of use) of "to begin".

Media Halloween: Yet Another Ploy of the Liberal Menace
posted by November 2 at 14:05 PMon
Just when you think a man like Sean Hannity can't get any more pathetic, he opens his mouth again:
On the October 31 edition of Fox News Hannity & Colmes, co-host Sean Hannity claimed that Halloween is a liberal holiday and is teaching our kids to be liberals. Hannity explained that were teaching kids to knock on other peoples doors and ask for a handout. Co-host Alan Colmes responded by asking if that meant that Christmas is a liberal holiday. Colmes asserted that Halloween represents the act of giving, and asked: Isnt that a Christian thing, to give, to share with your community? Hannity replied: Not to teach your kids to beg for a handout.
I guess the good old Halloween leads to Satanism argument has run out of steam.
(Thank to Slog Tipper Matt Hickey.)

Stayed on a park & fly type reservation. Our stay began at beginning of our March break trip.
Check in was smooth, quick and friendly. We even received a call in the room after we arrived from the front desk asking if we had any questions or issues that needed to be taken care.
Room itself was on the 10th floor... needed a littel TLC... some wallpaper peeling, etc... but nothing major... more than acceptable for a night's stay.
We did eat at the on-site restaurant.... steaks were cooked very well and waitress was very friendly... meal was about $30 per person, so nothing out of the ordinary versus a keg, or similar... you want fast food... there is an A&W across the street...the decision is yours. Mine was to have steak with my family.
Check out was quick... as was the shuttle... was loaded and on our way to Pearson in 10 minutes... no issues here. Upon arrival a week later, we called the hotel and they told us where to meet the shuttle...took about 25-30 minutes for it to arrive... got loaded up and back to the hotel... it is about a 10 minute ride from the hotel... we parked our vehicle in the covered parking. Nothing happened to the vehicle for the week it was left.
All in all... a good experience... will definitely use this hotel again on our next trip out of Toronto Airport.

November 29
Well, November is quickly coming to a close and the weather remains a yo yo type pattern. One day warm and sunny, and the next very cold and blustery. Today we could see rain, changing over to flurries or snow, especially up here by the border. The discussion also doesn't rule out a chance of thunder here and there. Hope you all had a very nice holiday weekend! It is definitely Monday! Ugh! Be well!
November 24
Be safe and HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!
Statement as of 8:13 AM EST on November 24, 2010
Today will be a day of many forms of precipitation. A chance of
freezing rain and sleet will exist later this morning. We do not
expect an significant ice accumulation. Warm air will return this
afternoon and rain is likely. There will be a chance of
thunderstorms with rain continuing this evening before midnight.
After midnight... rain and a chance of thunderstorms will continue
in Northwest Indiana and northeast Illinois. There will be fog and
freezing drizzle in north central Illinois after midnight. The
cold air will move in by Thursday morning. Snow may fall Thursday
morning especially in far northeast Illinois and Northwest Indiana.
Use caution when driving today through Thursday, be alert for the
changing weather conditions. Some locations in Northwest Indiana
especially Benton and Jasper counties and Iroquois County in
Illinois may get up to 2 inches of wet snow Thursday.
November 22, Well, we round the corner toward Turkey day, and things are getting quite busy, including the Weather! Today began with thunder! Yes, thunderstorms possible throughout today and the evening. Rainfall amounts up to 1/4 of an inch (not too bad) certainly good for the plants as they go into dormancy.
Discussion for the rest of the week talks of some unsettled weather all around Chi Town, but not necessarily a bulls eye onto us directly (we'll see). 30% chance of snow late in the week. Check the WU Roat Trip Planner for your specific route--over the river and through the woods!
Wednesday through Friday...a larger trough will move into the
Great Basin region Wednesday. The GFS and European model (ecmwf) models show this
long wave trough over the Rocky Mountains by 18 UTC Wednesday.
Minus 40 degree temperatures were at 500 mb in northern Alberta.
We will use the combination model guidance and forecast high
temperature in the 30s for Friday and lows in the teens.
Precipitation will be snow.
Be safe and Happy Thanksgiving Week!

Nov. 15:
Forecaster Izzi does it again with his discussion today, just makes me laugh: "Discussion... 259 am CST Lots to kibitz about in the discussion this morning with fairly
active pattern expected this week and forecast challenges galore."
Showers possible this evening. Showers possible tomorrow. Alberta Clipper cuts down Wednesday and we may see some light snow (this would be our first) but accumulation is not likely.
I originally thought it was going to be super cold at the end of the week, but seeing the discussion unfold, I'm not so sure. Izzi even says if the front sets up more to our north which some of the models indicate, we may even sneak another weekend of 60's! Which would be awesome because we are going to the Northwestern -vs- IL game at Wrigley Field on Sat.
Have a good week all!
Nov. 12- We will still be warm today, but a slight cooling will happen gradually through today and the weekend, with a chance of rain almost every day. Had a very nice rain last night, which was badly needed.
Discussion talks about later next week and cold air mass descending on us. Pretty much right on cue for November. May ask hubby to get the lights up early this year during the milder temps, before winter really sets in.
Have a good Friday.
Nov 8, 2010 - Mother nature has her way of playing tricks. We've gone from a low of 21 just two days ago, to a predicted high in the upper 60's! And flirting with record highs by Wednesday. Kind or ironic, since I put up the 'cold' weather blog, but I'm going to keep it up because other areas are still in the chill.
I'm going to condense Izzy's discussion soon because it is too long. All the wx discussions and TV mets keep talking about Friday and into next weekend and what's ahead. I'll deal with that when it gets here (or probably look more closely on Weds, lol)
Adding some tips from Bangor, and some links to KEEPEROFTHE GATE Great WU winter blog. He has some excellent information on safety, wind chill factors, maps and features. It is one of the best blogs around for winter (and always). Prayers up for Haiti once again as the Cholera infected rivers and streams continue to bring heartache to them.
November 5, 2010 -
Well, as some may know, this week I had my first 'cold' weather experience, when my car battery died. It all worked out, but Uncle Mush reminded me it may be time to bring out the 'Winter Safety Blog'. Yup! It's 21 degrees in Northern IL--I guess it would be time!
Actually, we are headed for a warm up for a short period early next week, and Monday is expected to be 60! But, the deep freeze will be here sooner then we wish.
Feel free to add tips, please. Thank you UncleMush for the latest addition.
Winter Safety For Teens
In the winter of 2009, my dear friends lost their 17 year old son in a tragic winter accident in record cold on 01/23/2009. He was one mile from home and tried to walk after he drove into a snow bank. Many other factors contributed to this accident, but what difference does that make now.
Recently, another young man (friend of dau's) is fighting the loss of his feet to frostbite in another accident that resulted in him being stranded for over 8 hours in only 3 degree weather (in Colorado). The police found him in a state of severe hypothermia, dementia, with no clothes on in his underwear. As a matter of fact, he was airlifted here to Chicago where I learned we have one of the best hospitals in the country and they are trying to save his feet.
There are some things we as parents, grandparents and friends of young people can do to help to keep them aware of the dangers of severe winter weather.
I'm not a journalist, (obviously). I'm thinking though it's a good premise for an article, and maybe you can clean it up or help with your stories of how you have taught your 'yewts' to be safe in winter. Blog with me your own ideas or insight and add away!!!
#1: I text message all my young adults (5) when we are expecting an event, at any time during the year. This often goes un-replied to, but I have received a few 'Thanks Mom' stories when low and behold they were caught in the actual storm I was referring to and were freaking out! Gee, mom was not lying!!! They have come to appreciate it, and now trust I'm not fooling around.
#2: I take cold weather very, very seriously. My kids think I'm nuts, but every year I get them a car kit for Christmas. I get girlfriends, boyfriends, friends…all of them these tubular kits with a reflective blanket, etc…all kinds of stuff in there, from the auto-parts store or Wal-Mart. These kits are like $15.00 and some of the more expensive ones have jumper cables. It's a tube and don't break the seal, unless really needed!!!! I do check all their cars, too. I literally drive them. I take them to the store for a few minutes every once in a while. Brakes, noises, I find out a lot, and they hate it. But it forces them to deal with real!!!
#3: I laughingly say, frostbite can kick in 8 minutes or 6 minutes, or whatever the case may be as they are waving me off and walking out the door. Consistent reminders to (duh) wear their coats and layer up!!!! And yes, it may be nagging, but it helps make weather a serious subject. Especially, close to the city in the burbs where these kids just aren't thinking like kids who go deer hunting or work in weather.
#4: I tell them to listen to the NEWS!!! Like real news! (some of my gang is simply interested in listening to their I-pod or CD's when driving) Each of my kids knows which station is all news all the time, with traffic, weather and updates every 10 minutes. (I have a very annoying weather radio, too! And they make fun of me. Someday, I'm sure they will all own one,but it may be quieter, lol)
#5: I also use the dog as an example. If Meatloaf is outside and they just think someone else is home but are not paying attention, I say to them, do you understand that dog may get frostbite and die??? (sorry, harsh, lol!) I think learning to pay attention to their favorite animal is also a good way to teach respect for weather and, in a way, how to care for their pets and themselves.
#6: Cell phone chargers. There is nothing worse than a teen who says their phone was dead. Well, though we may go through dozens, I make sure they have a working charger for their phones in their cars and working phones. I know it sounds ridiculous to us older folk. But, hey, this technology has saved a few of my kids from some major problems. It's a good backup but not a substitute for knowledge of how to deal with a situation if they can't communicate. I hope they know how to assess a situation and to break into survival mode sooner than later.
#7: They all know to stay with their car, and that death is not an alternative to a ticket or owning up to a bad problem. (This is a hard one, and comes from a lot of years of teaching responsibility. Easy to walk away, but the trouble will follow!!! A hard one to teach. I'll defer on that to Parent's magazine and the pros)
#8: They have AAA auto-club. It's an added expense for me, but I buy it for them. They know they have AAA. They know I don't even need to be called to use it. They also know the card goes with the PERSON and not with the car…so if they are in another friend's car and are stranded, they can call AAA. (They also know it is a bond card, lol)
#9: Parties and drinking…ohhhh, there have been a few where 'other' kids wander outside and pass out in the cold. It's just tragic and a fact. I have discussed openly with my kids how to take care of 'a friend' and to pay attention to others in harm's way. I think this type of discussion helped them if 'they' were in a state to be foolish and walk into the cold. My mottos: Don't leave your wing man, man! And, take care of your peeps.
Ok, I'm sure there are more, and so maybe these tips aren't straight from Parent's magazine, and as a single mom for many years, I know there's some expenses here that I listed which I'm sure we could find alternatives to.
I also had the free opportunities to go out sledding with them, took them outdoors a lot. Taught them to ski on a free hill in Door County, camped instead of hotel, and exposed them to the outdoors like my mom and dad did for myself and my brothers and sisters.
Again, hope you will feel free to please add a tip to this blog that may have helped you to learn winter safety or get the message to your teen or young adult as they put their batman cape on and walk outside seemingly invincible! It could help others.
Uncle Mush Adds to the 2009 blog: Add a coffee can--metal. One or more of those fat candles. Keep the plastic cover. I've heard they can warm a car if the engine stops working.I carry the above.I haven't had to try it out yet.Knock on wood.Check candles yearly to make sure they are still good.Of course water,something like balance bars.Matches might help.LOL :)
REI has a backpack stove that uses little cubes of non toxic fuel.They say it burns at 1500 or 2000 degress.I can't remember.I have one in the car.Also a leatherman tool.I keep that, rope, kitchen matches in a kit.You could say I'm more than ready for whatever.I also of course have the coffee can thing.Winter can kill ya fast or slow if you aren't ready.:)I think the stove burns at 1200 degrees.:) Don't trust a bic lighter.If they get cold they won't light!
Good Ones UncleMush, thanks so much.
2010 Additions: Bangorwalker adds: If you do have a bic lighter, and need to use it, keep it warm in your hands, but don't blow on it or moisture could render it ineffective. Keep it in your pocket close to your body heat.
Keeperofthegate: Cold Weather Blog and great tips here

All Rise...
Judge David Johnson used to pretend to fly jets while sitting in cardboard boxes. His wife put a stop to it last week.
The Charge
Highway…to…the danger zone!
The Case
Originally screened in IMAX, Fighter Pilot: Operation Red Flag, now available on Blu-Ray, is a 48-minute documentary about a high-stakes training exercise held in Las Vegas. Red Flag attracts the best of the best fighter jocks from all around the world—Canada, Germany, Britain, and, of course, U.S.A.!!! In an effort to prep the pilots and their flight crews for real-life, large-scale combat, the Red Flag leaders subject the participants to days of intense combat simulation, rescue ops, multi-squadron attacks, and lots and lots of opportunities to explode fake tanks.
Granted unprecedented access to the festivities, filmmaker Stephen Low gets up close and personal with the midair mayhem, his cameras capturing the action from all conceivable angles—from the landing gear, the cockpit, just above the heat-seeking missiles, mounted on the back of the jets. The result: an engrossing, exhilarating, teeth-vibrating excursion into the wild blue yonder.
The human center of the film is John Stratton, a young U.S. fighter pilot whose grandfather was a legend in World War II. Seeking to following in his father's boot-steps he earned his wings and landed an invite to Red Flag. Now, while I'll yield to no one my admiration for the guy's commitment to smiting our enemies from the clouds, Stratton is, alas, lifeless as a narrator. His words are endearing enough, especially the stuff about his grandfather, but the guy delivers his lines with the charisma of a parking meter. And most of the video footage with him—save for the in-the-cockpit shots—seems canned, as when he's approached with the news that he'll be the one dropped in the Nevada desert and he tries his absolute hardest to feign surprise. Yeah, I'm not buying the authenticity of that reaction.
But Fighter Pilot isn't about Golden Globes for acting—it's about unbelievable shots of aerial hijinks, and on that level, the film brings it. Though the life-and-death tension is somewhat diluted because this is all a training exercise, the jet-to-jet engagements are still a thing to behold. With turbines roaring and camera lenses absorbing fantastic angles, the Red Flag war games leap to life, aggressively pushing your sound and video system. Check out that finale, when the jets go on their bombing strafing runs and blow tanks and anti-aircraft to kingdom come.
In between these action scenes are closer looks at the flight crews, the strategy in the AWAC, the tactics, and the debriefing, and it's all awesome. This is where the access pays off. It's just heaven for aficionados of the aircraft or the military in general.
Blu-ray is definitely the format to soak all this in. The 1.78:1 widescreen is beautiful and crystal-clear, making those wartorn landscapes and explosions and cockpits pop. Just watch when Stratton takes off and you see the vanishing Earth through his cockpit glass—jaw-dropping. But it's likely the sound (DTS HD Master Audio 5.1) that you will likely remember more than anything. Booming, active, enveloping—those adjectives don't do this mix justice. A powerful surround-sound experience.
Extras are low-key: a brief making-of documentary, a trivia quiz, and some text-only facts.
Give us your feedback!
Did we give Fighter Pilot: Operation Red Flag (Blu-Ray) a fair trial? yes / no

USC's Matt Leinart might be the nation's best sophomore quarterback. His midseason numbers are better than the man he replaced, Heisman Trophy winner Carson Palmer. He's dating a professional surfer/model.
He's exceeded everyone's expectations and led his team to a No. 4 national ranking. He's everything a USC quarterback should be.
And he might not be the Trojans' starter next season.

As bizarre as that might sound, this isn't a case of a media-created quarterback controversy. When USC coaches decided to promote true freshman John David Booty to backup quarterback and sacrifice his redshirt season by playing him against Stanford, they made clear their plan to stage what figures to be a fascinating quarterback
competition this spring.
"Absolutely," coach Pete Carroll said when asked if that was his intention. "That's what our program is based on, competition. I think that's a good thing for all of us. Matt is well aware of that."
The reasoning is clear. Booty is special, and not only because he is believed to be the first football player to graduate from high school a year early in order to play for a major Division I-A program.
Booty, 6-foot-3, 200 pounds, threw for 8,286 yards and 87 touchdowns his last two years at Evangel Christian Academy in Shreveport, La., a school that has won eight state championships since 1989 and has sent three other quarterbacks to major programs -- John David's older brother Josh, who played for LSU, Miami's Brock Berlin and Oklahoma's Brent Rawls.
Booty likely would have been the nation's No. 1 prep quarterback this season had he remained in high school. But after his father, Johnny, Evangel's quarterbacks coach, was controversially fired, apparently due to a conflict over the elder Booty's Bible study group that ran afoul philosophically with the school's founder, he opted to graduate early and start his college career.
While Leinart was winning a five-way battle to succeed Palmer -- and winning the affections of Veronica Kay, best known for her work on the WB network's reality show "Boarding House: North Shore" -- Booty was learning the offense and impressing coaches with his arm and his savvy.
All Leinart has done is complete 62 percent of his passes for 1,824 yards with 17 touchdowns and seven interceptions. He ranks 10th in the nation in quarterback efficiency, with a rating 23 points high than Palmer achieved through seven games a year ago.
When quarterbacks coach Steve Sarkisian talks about Leinart he raves about his poise, leadership, intelligence and decision-making. But when asked about Booty, who completed 1-of-4 passes in his only appearance, the terms change.
"He's a little different than Matt; he's extremely gifted," Sarkisian said. "He also has a feel for the game and he's a cool customer for a young kid."
Leinart and Booty, who room together before games, don't appear to be
allowing the impending competition damage their relationship. Leinart spends much of his time teasing Booty about his southern accent.
Booty admits Leinart has been "tearing it up." He's not some 18-year-old prima donna with an ego that belongs on a Hollywood set. He's not demanding the job using the threat of a transfer as a cudgel.
"I'm just looking to compete; that's all I ask for," Booty said. "Whoever wins, wins."
Of course, at this point, Leinart, who will lead the Trojans at Washington on Saturday, is unquestionably the man. While he tiptoes around the question a bit, he makes it clear he intends to stay that way.
"There's going to be competition, but I feel like this is my team and I'm leading this team for the next couple of years," he said.
Yet it's impossible not to see the parallels between a similar situation from a few years ago at Texas, where established starter Major Applewhite was locked in a seemingly endless struggle with hotshot recruit Chris Simms.
That back-and-forth competition was debated ad naseum by the media and fans, often to the detriment of the team. The hindsight review was coach Mack Brown mishandled the situation.
Carroll rejected the possibility of a similar scenario playing out at USC. He noted that Leinart's numbers have dramatically improved since Booty's elevation. Leinart has passed for 900 yards and nine touchdowns in the last three games, including a career-best 351 yards and four touchdowns against Notre Dame last weekend.
Carroll believes having two capable, young quarterbacks locked in competition will only make them both better.
"It's a beautiful thing," he said.

Yes, cruel and a lot of traveling. I'm not looking forward to that. It would have been nice if instead of another huge loop that Drakebreath City was somewhere close to Yellow Town accessible via a late-received HM in the game, or one only useable after defeating the last Gym before the Tablet Trek. Perhaps another long Route could have been in between the two. (But seriously, come on - why can't we at least receive Fly by the 8th Gym instead of in the post-game? Why was there no HM-removable blocker on 417 instead to shorten the trek, with HM received in Drakebreathe or sometime after Snowce City? Just these little things could have been improvements...)
And while I'm at it, I'm now looking at the map. Where on Earth is Route 503? I don't even see data for it.
Did you already got HM2? If not, you can get it in one 0f the house in

Creamed Onions
From EatingWell: November/December 2009, November/December 2010
A holiday staple in many households, creamed onions are usually bathed in a rich white sauce made with heavy cream. In this version, we roast the onions for an added layer of flavor and lighten up the sauce with low-fat milk. The result is a luxuriously silky sauce with a sweet roasted onion flavor for far fewer calories and less fat. We like the smaller size of pearl onions, but boiling onions also work well.
Makes: 12 servings, about 1/2 cup each

Diabetes appropriate | Low calorie | Low carbohydrate | Low cholesterol | Low saturated fat | Low sodium | Healthy weight | Heart healthy |View Our Nutrition Guidelines »
- 3 pounds fresh or frozen pearl onions or boiling onions
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- 1 teaspoon salt, divided
- 1/2 cup reduced-sodium beef broth
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 cups low-fat milk
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
- 1/4 teaspoon white or black pepper
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- If using fresh onions, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add onions and cook 1 minute to loosen the skins. Drain. When cool enough to handle, trim both ends, leaving enough of the root end to keep the onions whole while roasting. Peel off the skins. Toss the prepared fresh onions (or frozen onions) with 1 tablespoon oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Spread in an even layer in a roasting pan large enough to accommodate all the onions in a single layer. (If you're using fresh onions, a 9-by-13-inch pan is large enough; if using frozen, you may need a larger pan.) Roast the onions, stirring occasionally, until soft and brown in spots, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
- Remove the roasting pan from the oven and add broth, stirring and scraping up any brown bits. Return the pan to the oven and roast for 10 minutes more.
- About 30 minutes after the onions start roasting, start the cream sauce. Melt butter with the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add flour and cook, whisking, until the mixture bubbles and is free of lumps, about 30 seconds. Whisk in milk, then add bay leaf, thyme, pepper and the remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt; bring to a gentle boil, whisking often. Reduce heat to the barest simmer and cook, whisking often, until the sauce has thickened to the consistency of thick gravy, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat. Discard the bay leaf.
- Stir the roasted onions and any broth from the pan into the cream sauce. Stir in lemon juice. Transfer to a serving dish and serve warm.

leap is next
LEAP is a wireless carrier deploying technology from vendors like Alcatel Lucent Nortel etc. They are not exposed to technology risk or bad carrier loans like those companies. Again poor analysis. But keep them coming.
Main reason for increased FCF burn and loss was purchases of iPHONES. Shorts are really dumb if they hammer on LEAP at an all time low with iPHONE sales going through the roof, 10 more models coming out, data on iPHONE sales forthcoming, and capex cut, sales channel optimized, and logistics outsourced. LEAP is about to grow up and become a real company, stock is grossly undervalued here with $780MM in EBITDA.

Tracks to Our Music Heritage
The older a recording is, the historian Tim Brooks has shown, the less likely it is to be commercially available. "Less than 4% of historically important recordings made before 1925 are available from the rights holders," he found in 2005. But the Library of Congress has now taken a serious step toward making historical recordings available online—for listening only, though, not for downloading—with the National Jukebox, introduced earlier this month.
Upon launch, about 10,300 tracks originally released by the Victor Talking Machine Co. between 1900 and 1925 became available as streaming audio at www.loc.gov/jukebox . According to Gene DeAnna, head of the recorded-sound collection, in the first two days more than a million people logged on; within a week, visitors had racked up 600,000 plays. Listeners can play individual tracks or precompiled playlists, or assemble their own.
No wonder people are so interested: The first 25 years of the 20th century represent the birth of jazz, the blues, the Broadway musical, the big band, country music, pop singing and the Great American Songbook, not to mention a golden age of opera and a flowering of ethnic music. Superstars from the era still loom large: Enrico Caruso, Al Jolson, Bessie Smith.
Mr. DeAnna says that the Jukebox had been in progress for nearly a decade, having been developed by himself and his predecessor, Sam Brylawski, the Library of Congress's David Sager, David Seubert of the University of California at Santa Barbara, and others. "At one point, it was restricted to a hard drive that researchers could listen to in the LOC reading room," he says. The hardest part was not the technology or even the sheer labor of transferring more than 5,000 78s and cylinders, but negotiating the rights issues.
"Most people assume these early recordings are in the public domain, but they're not," says Mr. DeAnna. The majority of early records were released by two companies, Victor Talking Machine Co. and Columbia Records. The Library of Congress approached their corporate heirs, BMG and Sony Music, even before the two companies merged in 2004. (The question why 85-year-old recordings are not public domain will be examined in a public hearing at the Copyright Office in Washington on June 2 and 3.)
The foundation for the National Jukebox is the Encyclopedic Discography of Victor Recordings (EDVR) maintained by the UCSB (http://victor.library.ucsb.edu), which includes detailed information for all Victor records produced through 1927. "We really needed their data to make this a reality," Mr. DeAnna says. "That's what makes us different from iTunes." Where much of the info on individual tracks and albums from Apple's music purchasing site is wildly erratic, the National Jukebox strives for consistency in terms of proper artist info, song titles, composers, personnel, date, etc.
Tune in
Listen to some songs available on the National Jukebox.
Essentially, the Jukebox combines the EDVR data with sound files generated by both the Library of Congress (the discs are cleaned and transferred at the Library's A/V Conservation Facility in Culpeper, Va.) and by UCSB. The National Jukebox is not only a collaboration of a government organization, a media conglomerate and an academic institution, but of private collectors. David Giovannoni and Mark Lynch have jointly assembled the world's premiere archive of pre-1903 Victor recordings. "They loaned us about 800 discs, in beautiful condition, that nobody else had," Mr. DeAnna says. "So we were able to engage expert collectors, and that's something we really want to do going forward, to fill in the gaps."
One key showcase in the Jukebox is the digitized version of the 1919 "Victrola Book of the Opera." This 445-page publication—part catalog, part guidebook—was already multimedia for its day, offering synopses of more than 110 operas, photos of sopranos and tenors, and listings of what selections were available. "The really neat thing is that we have embedded links for all the citations in the catalog that we have in the Jukebox," Mr. DeAnna says. The book's most often covered tune may be the "Quartet" from "Rigoletto," recorded not only by Caruso but by, among others, an accordion soloist and the Six Brown Brothers Saxophone Sextet—all of which are playable with a click.
The Jukebox has an agreement with Sony that will allow it to stream any track owned by the company dated 1925 or earlier. It plans to fill in Victor tracks that aren't already available even while it starts to compile the song data and sound files for thousands of Columbia records. The Jukebox also has obtained the rights, from Universal Music, to stream certain Decca sides from the mid-1930s on. "Now we just have to see what we can do with the music publishing rights," Mr. DeAnna says. "We have some ability to do blanket licensing with Ascap and BMI. We'll see how that goes."
Given the current 1925 cut-off and inability to download, says the historian Mr. Brooks, the Jukebox is "kind of like a movie theater that is only permitted to show silent films, and then frisks you on the way out to make sure you didn't record anything." Still, he sees it as a marvelous beginning. "It's certainly wonderful that the Library has been able to make these resources available."
By and large, this is the most attention these discs and cylinders have received in 85 years. And to hear these recordings from the early days makes you wonder how they could have been overlooked for so long.
Mr. Friedwald writes about music for the Journal.

INDIANAPOLIS — With a tinge of gray hair at his temples, his hat on backward and his two young children by his side, Jeff Gordon celebrated as if he was 23 again.
Gordon won a NASCAR-record fifth Brickyard 400 on Sunday, eight days before his 43rd birthday, on the weekend Indianapolis Motor Speedway celebrated the 20th anniversary of his first Brickyard victory and on "Jeff Gordon Day," as declared by Mayor Greg Ballard.
Gordon's first win came before the celebratory kissing of the Yard of Bricks was en vogue, before he became a household name, while Sprint Cup rookies Kyle Larson and Austin Dillon were in diapers. Now a family man with an aching back, Gordon showed he's still at the top of his game.
"If you can do it here, you can do it anywhere," said Gordon, who has led the Sprint Cup standings for 13 of the past 14 weeks. "It's certainly going to be a huge confidence boost for this team. We recognize the significance of this.
"We saw we were points leaders, we won at Kansas (in May), but I don't know if we believed we were capable of winning this championship this year. We do now."
To prove it to himself, his Hendrick Motorsports team and his ardent fan base, Gordon needed a vintage close to the race.
Hendrick teammate Kasey Kahne led a race-high 70 laps and seemed to be racing against only his gas tank when a caution with 17 laps left put the race back into Gordon's hands. He'd have one shot at passing Kahne, on a dreaded restart, and nobody was sure if Gordon had it in him.
Gordon has struggled with restarts for several years. And Kahne, winless this year, desperately needed the victory to grab a berth in the Chase for the Championship field.
Kahne picked the lower, inside lane for the restart, and Gordon found himself on the outside and exactly where he wanted to be. Gordon tried to set a quick pace as they headed to the flag, and Kahne tried to slow it in the restart zone.
Gordon shifted into fourth gear and surged past Kahne on the outside, and Gordon kicked it into cruise control as he sailed away for the win.
"I think we both knew that was for the win," Gordon said of Kahne. "Out of nowhere, I have the restart of my life at the most important moment that you could ask for in a race, in a season, at a race like this. That was just awesome."
The win moved Gordon — also the Brickyard winner in 1998, 2001 and '04 — into a tie with Michael Schumacher, whose five Formula One wins at Indy had been the gold standard.
"I told (Gordon) this morning that this was his day," team owner Rick Hendrick said.
Kahne plummeted to fifth after the restart, then ran out of gas on the final lap and nursed his car home to a sixth-place finish. He said he erred in picking the inside line for the restart.
"I should have chosen the top (lane), obviously," he said. "I pretty much let Jeff control that last restart. I thought I made the right decision."
Kyle Busch finished second, 2.325 seconds behind Gordon, and was followed by Joe Gibbs Racing teammates Denny Hamlin and Matt Kenseth. NASCAR said Hamlin's car failed the post-race inspection and the parts in question would be taken to North Carolina for a look.
Joey Logano was fifth in the highest-finishing car for Team Penske, which brought Juan Pablo Montoya to the race in an effort to get the win. Roger Penske has won a record 15 Indy 500s but is winless in the Brickyard. Montoya was never a factor and finished 23rd.
Pole-sitter Kevin Harvick was eighth.

Hi everyone, this turned up today. Could some one tell me what it is?
Sweet rocket, sowed a lot last year and now there's a mini forest of them
Lovely pictures everyone, taken with that phlox chicky. Is the yellow and blue flowers a viola?Looks like I have a similar bed to yours, the forget me nots have done very well.........I'm growing more
Looks a lovely spot KEF, usb ports are brilliant you can do a lot with them
I think that's generally what you should do Olivedog, however some plants take longer to get to their eventual spread than others. Itt really does depend on what plant it is. I have found that you think you have loads of plants and then you plant them and think where did they go?
Lovely present witch, the name sounds interesting. I guess you can but they probably wont get as tall....no chance of squeezing them in somewhere?
Hello to all, I don't have a greenhouse......... but would really like one in an ideal one. Do all my stuff in cold frames, great results but you can't really get in one, glass of wine and a gloat.........doesn't sound sad artjak, just that your enjoying yourself
I would say a month behind here too, I'm going with lazy gardeners law of averages
That thought did cross my mind also, I think I'm might be confusing it with 4 stroke
I thought it was something that you put in cars
Great news artjak, looking foward to seeing the verbs flower. I know what the seedlings look like as well
I would sow them Jigsaw Gill, mine were a very early sowing and it sounds like they grow a lot in in warm temperatures

The surgeons listed above are members of The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, licensed by the state of California and certified by The American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS).
Choose Your Plastic Surgeon Carefully
Remember, any licensed physician is legally allowed to advertise as a "cosmetic" surgeon, even if he or she has no formal surgical training. Your body is nothing to take chances with, so avoid the risk. Selecting a board-certified plastic surgeon from this list is your assurance that your doctor has the highest quality training and advanced surgical skills.
ABPS Certification and ASAPS Membership Matters
The ABPS is recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties to certify doctors in the specialty of plastic surgery. Following medical school, ABPS-certified plastic surgeons must have completed a minimum of 5 years of surgical training, including an accredited plastic surgery residency program. Members of ASAPS must be in at least their third year of active practice following ABPS certification.

Moving Towards Non-Relational Databases
RDBMS has been around since long. It is the founder stone of many application stacks. It provides the users with the best mix of simplicity, robustness, flexibility, performance, scalability, and compatibility. However the emergence of the cloud centric application poses a set of challenges to the existing RDBMS Vendors. The RDBMS are not so suitable to cater to some of the critical requirement of these new generation applications such as handling large set of unstructured data or providing elastic scalability. This results in emergence of a new set of document centric or resource centric databases which are non-relational in nature. Promising non-relational solutions include CouchDB, SimpleDB etc. The authors have explored and conducted few experiments with some of such databases.

Research Corporation Technologies (RCT) is tapping Isogenica for use of the latter's CIS display platform to screen its antibody-derived engineered CH2 domain libraries. The libraries are the foundation of a biologics discovery platform centered on the discovery of therapeutic antibody-derived Abdurin™ molecules, which the firm is offering through drug discovery partnerships. Developed in collaboration with scientists at the Protein Interactions Group of the National Cancer Institute, the antigen-specific Abdurins retain the long half-life of an antibody's CH2 domain, and can be engineered to demonstrate enhanced stability and epitope binding.
RCT claims that Isogenica's CIS display platform can screen much larger libraries and isolate and optimize lead bindings much faster than phage display approaches. Through the partnership Isogenica will also support RCT through deep sequencing and related bioinformatics tools to help optimize selected abdurins against specific targets.
"Isogenica's CIS display offers a significant advantage over other screening systems by allowing for primary screening and binder optimization in one system," comments Kurt Gehlsen, Ph.D., vp and CSO at RCT. "The pairing of CIS display with our Abdurins platform will be an attractive offering to potential partners."
RCT is a technology investment and management company that provides early-stage funding and development for promising biomedical companies and technologies. The firm separately reported the publication of the first studies in primates to characterize the long half-life of isolated CH2 domain scaffold. The work was performed under a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) between RCT and the NI, in collaboration with the NCI's Protein Interactions Group. The firm says the data represent the first to demonstrate that a small protein scaffold can retain an extended half-life in nonhuman primates without modifications such as pegylation.
"We believe that our Abdurins platform addresses several of the known shortcomings of other small antibody-like fragments through its longer half-life, ease of production, and flexible formatting," adds Shaun Kirkpatrick, president and CEO at RCT. "We are looking forward to partnering with industry and developing the next generation of antibody-like therapeutics."

SOURCE: "Dylan Thomas: The Position in Calamity," in The Southern Review, Vol. 3, 1967, pp. 922-43.
In the following essay, West examines the stories contained in Thomas's collection, Adventures in the Skin Trade.
According to Wordsworth, "all men feel something of an honourable bigotry for the objects which have long continued to please them." Something of: it is what Englishmen say to maintain their reserve during enthusiasm and what most people say when they want to suggest reservations painlessly. Something of: the phrase comes naturally to the lips for Dylan Thomas, whom his detractors find only something of a charlatan, whom his admirers find only something of a genius. It is not easy to be absolute about him, yet half-measures don't seem appropriate—and this will show in what follows. So let him talk for himself while I, a bit...

It's very important to me that you have a rewarding wood fired cooking experience with your Mugnaini wood fired pizza oven. To ensure this, it's necessary to remember to always properly heat your oven. Do not take any short cuts. Sounds simple, but it's the most important step to ensure success with your cooking. You do not want a drop or fluctuation in oven temperature once you start cooking.
The best way to do this is to maintain good airflow in and around your fire — from the very start through all of your cooking. When you initially build the fire make a grid with your kindling and firewood so that air can easily flow into the wood pile and keep the fire burning. You want to consistently see tall flames at this point to indicate the wood is burning well and breaking down to the hot coals you will need to drive the heat into the oven components. The longer it takes for you to achieve a bed of coals, the longer it will take for the oven to come up to temperature. Do not restrict the airflow into the oven at this point by closing the mouth with the door…leave it open for now.
After completing the step by step Mugnaini How to Fire Your Oven (PDF) instructions, and your oven is fully heated, remember the same concept of good airflow to your fire is important during cooking. Regularly use the stainless steel hook to agitate the coal bed and oxygenate the fire. This will prevent smoldering and smoke and ensure the delicious taste of your foods. Enjoy!

text: Updated from 1:36 p.m. EDT Let's Make It Easy ( At 12:15 p.m. EDT) Not all is well. Talk about an understatement. Everything is horrible. Couldn't be worse. Run for the hills, and stock the caves. Here's just a little evidence from the past few days that this downturn refuses to give up its hold. American Express ( AXP) said Monday it would cut 4,000 jobs. Nobody liked Hewlett-Packard ( HPQ) after it failed to say that tech land was about to see a sharp rebound. Weekly jobless claims edged lower, but were still well above 600,000, and continuing claims rose to a new record. Mixed commentary from the Federal Reserve. Bad, folks. Nothing to like here. You'd have to be pretty foolish to want anything to do with equities. One click away over on RealMoney you'll find plenty of experts telling you why you have to beware of the rally of the past two months. The time has come for those of us who aren't on board to join them. Let's go. There. It certainly is more rewarding to say it's all over. Look at the market. It knows. The Dow lost some 130 points to 8292. Only seven of its 30 stocks were up. That should answer all your questions. Wait a second. Go back to September, a mere eight months ago. Every day it seemed another decades-old Wall Street institution was in danger of, or in fact was, vanishing off the face of the earth. At its worst, it felt like the nation itself, or at least its economic system, was on the verge of collapse. Terrifying. Think now about how far we've come. Do you truly appreciate that the worst-case scenario has been averted? We've survived the stress tests. Banks that need to raise capital are raising capital. Firms of all sizes are looking for ways to repay the TARP. I've said it before, though it bears repeating, the doomsday scenario is over. Prev 0 of 2 Next
