MolBio Seminar Series
Andrea Graham
Andrea earned an A.B. in Biology and Sculpture from Mount Holyoke College in 1992, after which she taught both subjects in NYC public high schools. In 2001, she earned a Ph.D. in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology (of parasites!) from Cornell University and moved to University of Edinburgh for a postdoc in immunology. She then obtained independent research fellowships (from the Leverhulme Trust, 2004-06, and then the UK Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council, 2006-10) to establish her own research group in Edinburgh. She moved to Princeton in 2011.
Optimal Immune Defense In This Wormy World
Intestinal nematodes are among the most prevalent parasites of mammals: it's a Wormy World indeed. Heavy nematode infections are detrimental to host health and evolutionary fitness, but immune defense against them can also be costly (e.g., by depleting protein or causing immunopathology). What, then, is the optimal type and magnitude of immune response for a host to mount? In nature, minimizing the cost-benefit ratio for defense against nematodes is not a static problem. For example, the relative costs of parasitism and defense vary with environment, condition, and co-infection. In two model systems, one wild (sheep) and one captive (mice), I will consider these questions: To what extent do hosts achieve optimal defense that maximizes their survival and reproduction? How well do nematode-infected hosts manage co-infections? And, ultimately, why do hosts exhibit such varied susceptibility to nematode infection?
Andrea and her group study how natural selection has shaped strategies for both host defense and parasite transmission. Particular areas of interest are immunological conflicts posed by co-infection, the effects of strong immune responses upon both host and parasite fitness, and selection pressures that shape the speed and specificity of immune responses.

SACRAMENTO -- Republican lawmakers on Thursday asked Gov. Jerry Brown to resist union pressure to appeal a Los Angeles judge's decision striking down tenure and other job protections for California teachers.
Senate Minority Leader Bob Huff, R-Diamond Bar, sent Brown a letter a day before the Democratic governor is scheduled to address a the American Federation of Teachers' national conference in Los Angeles.
Huff urged Brown to consider the civil rights of disadvantaged students.
"Senate Republicans strongly believe an appeal would further disenfranchise inner-city students and those who come from challenging socio-economic circumstances," Huff wrote. "The proper response would be to take advantage of this historic ruling as an opportunity to promote true education equality and fix California's broken public school system."
Last month, Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Rolf Treu found that a handful of laws governing the hiring and firing of the state's teachers are unconstitutional because they deprive children of a quality education. Education experts say it was the first time in U.S. history a court has found that teacher effectiveness is an essential component of the right to an equal public education.
He concluded that the statutes violate the equal protection and other provisions of the California Constitution by exposing the state's 6.2 million students to "grossly ineffective teachers."
Treu found that students in low-income districts are disproportionately affected by last hired-first fired layoff rules and protections that make it nearly impossible to get rid of lousy veteran teachers. California teachers receive tenure after just two years, sooner than in nearly every other state.
Brown and Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Torlakson, the two main defendants, have not said whether they plan to appeal. Brown's spokesman, Evan Westrup, said the governor's office had not received the letter.
"The decision is a tentative ruling and it's being reviewed," Westrup said.
The California Teachers Association, the state's largest teachers union, has said it plans to appeal the judge's ruling.
Reform advocates and some lawmakers who support the ruling have indicated they would push the governor and Legislature to take immediate steps to replace the problematic statutes. Huff indicated in his letter that he would like to work with the governor "to craft an education code that ensures every child has an equal opportunity for a world-class education."

GYPSUM - Eagle Valley's John Ramunno coaches a fall sport, but he's excited about the winter seasons of basketball and wrestling.
That's because he's looking forward to see his football players continue their successes as the snow flies.
"I told the guys, 'When you do have success, it's up to you to keep it going,'" Ramunno said. "I think we're going to have a good winter at Eagle Valley."
Fall was pretty darn good. The football team went from 1-8 and near the basement in the Western Slope to 8-4 and one of the last eight teams standing in the state playoffs. That turnaround was reflected as Ramunno handed out all-league honors earlier this week.
Andy Armstrong
Ramunno - and wrestling coach Ron Beard, for that matter - has good reason to be excited about Armstrong when it comes to wrestling. Now a heavyweight, Armstrong finished fifth in the state at 220 pounds last winter. (Ramunno previously did double duty as the school's football and wrestling coach, so he's not a stranger to the mat.)
Armstrong was a tackle on both sides of the ball, but shined particularly offensively.
Ramunno's take: "One game, we were talking at halftime, and I said, 'How are you doing? Who can block their man?' Andy said, 'Go behind me, Coach.' I love that. Andy Armstrong is a physical specimen. ... That's probably one of the best offensive lines I've coached."
Cole Nielsen
Just as Ramunno doesn't drop the phrase "one of the best offensive lines I've coached" too often, he doesn't invoke running-back Sean Matheson much. Nielsen, according to Ramunno, belongs in that company. Nielsen ran for more than 1,500 yards this season, including huge games against Glenwood Springs and Frederick in the playoffs.
Like anyone who watched the Devils this season, Ramunno enjoyed watching Nielsen seemingly getting tackled over and over, only to see him keep the play going.
Ramunno's take: "That's what he did the best, his second effort. I'm calling in the next play and he's still going. ... Gosh darn, that kid is fun to watch. We were lucky to have him. He was our bell cow. Every game he went over 100 yards, we won."
Rick Ramunno
A reminder to all that opposing coaches vote here and a coach is not allowed to vote for his own players. Rick Ramunno is here on his merits by being a consummate fullback, blowing open holes for guys like Nielsen and getting the tough yards in third- and fourth-down situations.
John Ramunno's take: "His best forte was that lead block. Rick did a good job of getting low. He's not real big. He's 160-165 pounds, but he really exploded into a hit. We usually sent him in after the defensive end to make a seam between the defensive end and the tackle. And, when we needed a couple of yards, he went straight ahead."
Honorable mention
Ty LaFramboise
So could the transfer from Norwood adjust to 11-man football from 8-man? Yep. As a linebacker, he hit everything that moved. Having played just a little bit of everything with Norwood offensively, LaFramboise found a home on the offensive line as well.
Ramunno's take: "He was all worried about guys being bigger and faster at this level. Football is football. He has a big body to begin with and is an aggressive kid. He loves to hit and he fit our senior class like a glove."
Ayren Hart
A tight end and defensive end, the senior played multiple roles for the Devil, doing everything from returning kicks to plugging opposing teams' running games. Hart was also successful with more than 20 grabs when Eagle Valley went to the air.
Ramunno's take: "He's so athletic. He could get great blocks for you. You could split him out and he'll catch that fade or we'd run that wheel route and he gets into space. He ran well, too."
Sam Boyd
Probably quarterback Jordon Hudspeth's favorite target at tight end, Boyd also did a nice job of breaking things up at defensive end. Though he had many great catches on offense, his best grab was probably a highlight-reel pick against Palisade.
Ramunno's take: "I think for two straight summers he was down here throwing and catching. Someone in our community asked if he had flypaper on his hands. I was hoping to see that interception against Palisade on SportsCenter."
Joey Sanchez
Great nose guard and a great offensive lineman. Sanchez symbolized the revitalization of Eagle Valley football by working in the weight room, and he holds the school record of bench-pressing 340 pounds. He isn't very tall, but he beat his opponents with strength and speed.
Ramunno's take: "After the Delta game, their coach said, 'Your No. 71 is a stud. Same thing with the Rifle coach. That's pretty coal that a kid draws respect like that."

San Jose's Polina Edmunds is headed to Sochi, Russia.
The teen skating sensation was among the three women named to the Olympic team Sunday by U.S. Figure Skating.
She will be joined by U.S. champion Gracie Gold and veteran Ashley Wagner, who finished fourth this weekend at the national championships in Boston.
Third-place finisher Mirai Nagasu of Arcadia was left off the team in favor of Wagner, a two-time national champion.
Edmunds, 15, finished second behind Gold in her first senior national competition. The Archbishop Mitty sophomore has the most technically difficult free program among the Americans. Her 4-minute 20-second routine has eight triple jumps, including two separate triple-triple combinations that can pile up points.
She had achieved the minimum technical scores for the Olympics (20 points short program; 36 points free skate) during the Junior Grand Prix circuit this season.
Polina's mother and coach, Nina Edmunds, is a Russian who came to the Bay Area after marrying American tourist John Edmunds.

'Breaking Bad' Fan Warren Buffett Gives His Take on Finale
Fans of "Breaking Bad" who threw parties, gathered with friends and family or otherwise juggled their schedules to see the show's finale last night were in well-known company. Even Berkshire Hathaway boss and investing legend Warren Buffett joined in.
Buffett watched the show in a VIP room at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery in Los Angeles among celebrities including talk-show host Jimmy Kimmel and musician Marilyn Manson. Buffett, who came late to the series but had binge-watched since April to catch up, said of the finale, "I had sky-high expectations and they were exceeded."
Buffett wore a red sweater and a hat signed by the cast. The show's creator Vince Gilligan and cast member Aaron Paul greeted Buffett and thanked him for his support.
The executive previously met the show's crew members when they produced a video for a Berkshire corporate meeting.

Liverpool Message Board
Watched Barca flounder v Real in The Camp Nou last night and concur with DESMOND KANES great article today on Euro Sport that they just had no Plan B. Maureens Real clinically dispatched Barca on their own turf last night. He showed just how to combat the short passing game called Tici Taca ; block the middle channel dont be stretched by any wing play and hit hard and fast on the counter which they did numerous times last night 3 times resulting in goals.
Barca are a physically lightweight side not up to much when it comes to high crosses into and across the box..just like us...and are heavily reliant on the short pass to take them all the way upfield and intothe last third where thye look to create serious goal chances but up against a strategy like Real's last night this ultimately flounders justas it did via AC Milan in the San Siro in ECLC. Real by contrast last night showed willing to move the ball at lightning pace when they got the chance to break out on the counter and not just move the ball fast but everyone was ready and willing to take on and attempt to beat a man when in possession before freeing the ball to a supporting player..this unlike us.
So Brendan Rogers...is it time to move with the times and look to mix up the play book a little rather than stick stubbornly to this it seems rapidly becoming outmoded strategy of one trick pony tici taca ?Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
hobs..would have to agree with BR that with the current squad we have corners being "pinged" in are indeed a waste of time and agree with what u suggest we need...but still think Stevie shouldnt be taking any corners as he is a serious threat on the edge of the box and enough to stop oposition being complacent about any corners we win and get them feeling a bit nervous should anything spring lose around the edge of the box as Stevie can be deadly if he latches onto anything comes loose. But a big skillful attacking forward in te mold of Cavanni might turn things around in the box when we win corners...note I didnt say bring back Andy C...LOL...but he was quite the disruptive influence where oppsition defenses were concerned when we got corners ..remember that goal v UniTURD ?
I know what your saying and see the similarities. The game plans of Villa, Stoke, WBA etc have caused our downfalls but to be honest, the difference is that we got the ball in the box and had chances to kill it in all of them. In fact nearly every game we have lost this season, we have had opportunities to win them. The Madrid game was different, they absolutely slaughtered Barca on the break, Barca couldnt get the ball into the box let alone create chances. If we were looking at our side dominating a division, scoring more goals then anyone else but vulnerable to a gameplan of a world class team every now and then, I would be delighted!

Hobs see exactly what u are saying...but as Im sure u know in Spain Barca v Real is equivalent of us v THEM and is always the one they both want to win..its as if there are no other games in the season. They can often be the games that decide where the Title of La Liga is going to reside that season. So...our problem is we cant beat anybody in the top half of the table yeah I know we did Swansea reserves 5.0...lol. I just think to look at who we are playing and mix up the play book a bit if it delivers three points isnt such a bad idea. Perhaps playing on the counter is effective against some weve lost to this season that as u say we should have easily beaten...maybe it could be seen as winning ugly but if it delivers 3pts instead of none in these cases cant be all bad eh ?
Colin, I'm afraid you have a severe flaw in your argument here mate - Barca are 16 points ahead of Real in the Spanish league. To say the way they play is on its last legs is not supportable by the facts. Any team can lose on any given day for any number of reasons, just as any team can win against anyone else, and Real are not exactly chumps are they? It was a bad day at the office for Barca, that's all. Given how Barca are doing in the league, I would execute half the population of planet Earth for us to be able to play the way they do!

Loki been watching BARCA for donkeys yrs mate..did u watch the game last night btw ? La Liga for most yrs Ive been a follower has always been a two horse race with an odd season when Valencia under Benitez or Sevilla made an impact but generally it represents what the SPL was before the demotion of Rangers. Yes I know Real have lost nine times this yr. More good European top sides are going to be giving Barca more than just a run for there money much in the way Chelski also tippled to how to undo them they are not any longer the invincible possession machine they once were. They were undone by lightning fast counter attacking ...Maureens trademark wherever he has been...but also Real as I mentioned have a squad all of whom are prepared to take men on and beat them before releasing the ball as opposed to this incessant short pass game known now to all and sundry as Tici Taca. What Im suggesting is we NEED to mix up the playbook a little here as there is no doubt in my mind we are at our best when running at defenses and exchanging fast give and go. All top coaches are going to be looking at that match last night and learning just how to undo any side wishing to tici taca them to death...I think thats inevitable.

Back in August 2005, I gave Google a JUN 01 2007
Back in August 2005, I gave Google a good shot at developing a WebOS of sorts, a browser-based platform on which would run a suite of apps to replace a bunch of the most commonly used desktop applications. Google Gears is a another small piece of the bigger puzzle, a browser extension that allows web apps to provide offline functionality. I don't think the offline thing is as important as it was two years ago; people have gotten very comfortable using web apps and web access, especially among heavy users, is almost continuous and ubiquitous. That and if the hype about Facebook's new platform is accurate, working online together is more compelling than working offline apart.

For slow reactions, large-scale mixing patterns in the reactor are important for product distribution. For relatively fast reactions, however, such as reactions with shorter time scales than the mixing time scale, the problems associated with mixing-sensitive reactions are even more complicated because micromixing dictates the product distribution and the selectivity. Fast multiphase reactions occur close to the interface. Therefore, the local mixing environment has the strongest impact. Thus, for fast reactions taking place in liquid–liquid systems, the wake and the mixing behind the individual droplets determines the selectivity and byproduct formation. This article explores the impact of wake dynamics of individual droplets on the product distribution of a fast liquid–liquid reaction. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first paper that addresses this effect.
BackgroundMultiphase reactions are an important and interesting class of reactions, and significant efforts in the literature have been devoted to this topic (5–9). The importance of mixing in reactive systems is paramount because it brings various reactive species in molecular contact, which is a prerequisite for a chemical reaction to take place. Better mixing brings reactants together faster, thus enhancing the rates at which reactions occur. Poor mixing may impede certain reactions, thus altering a process's product distribution (10–14). If fast side reactions are suppressed by low mixing rates (because the reactants for the side reactions are not brought into contact), however, then poor mixing can improve product quality.
Although micromixing and its influence on reaction behavior have been studied (15–18), the industrially important case of reactive micromixing in bubble and droplet swarms has received comparatively little attention. During the past five years, our group has investigated the micromixing effects close to individual bubbles and in bubble–droplet swarms (19–22). The main results of our studies have shown that the selectivity and yield of fast chemical reactions are determined by local micromixing—that is, by the local flow pattern around individual bubbles and droplets in a swarm. If the reaction is heterogeneously catalyzed, then the local density of the catalyst close to the bubble is important as well. Thus, for fast liquid–liquid–solid reactions, the liquid and particle flow close to individual droplets determines reactor performance (23).

A truck was reported stolen Friday morning and recovered that afternoon. Ridgecrest Police Department was tipped to the vehicle's location and apprehended the suspect and vehicle.
Sgt. Justin Dampier, on the scene, said the suspect tried running when officers arrived but was quickly apprehended.
"Now, he's going to jail," Dampier said of Jeromy Wilson, 43, of Ridgecrest, who was arrested for allegedly stealing the yellow pickup.
Wilson has more than 20 prior convictions ranging from DUI to robbery and second degree burglary as far back as 1988 when he turned 18 years of age. His latest conviction was for driving under the influence when he was arrested on Nov. 25. According to Kern County Superior Court records, he served a total of 16 days for that conviction, charged with an $1,100 fine and granted three years of probation. Wilson was arrested in July 2012 for burglary and petty theft. He pleaded no contest to the petty theft and the burglary charge was dismissed and was sentenced to 20 months.
RPD was assisted by Kern County Sheriff's Department deputies and California Highway Patrol.
Dampier said that the keys were left in the vehicle. He said the victim was only a short distance from the truck and planned on being away for just a moment when Wilson allegedly stole it.
There have been several vehicles stolen in the Ridgecrest area recently and all have had been easy pickings for thieves as all of the vehicles had the keys left inside.
The vehicle was found outside a residence in the 1100 block of North Strecker Street, near Inyokern. It had been reported stolen earlier Friday in the La Mirage area.

Gin was ok coming out of the gate, but still not locked in all the way yet. Funky Bitch was good, and you get a double shot of Mike early on with a nice Ya Mar too, which was a little more tame tonight. Reba was spotty all over the place, but its new and hard to play. The solo jam was nice though. Divided Sky was good and rocking. My Sweet one still needs to tighten up a bit, but its new. Antelope was a little loose and sloppy to my ears, but it did really rock! Lawn Boy continues to be a nice new chill song. The expected cover song closer tonight is the newly added Frankenstein, and it rocked hard to close up a pretty decent first set.
Not sure what the boys did during set break, but this is not a pretty second set by any means. TMWSIY is a disaster from the time Fish comes in on the drums and Trey is two measures ahead of Page and Mike. Avenu also suffers coming out of Mikes solo and even Bag has a sloppy ending though it rocked pretty hard. Esther continues the sloppy playing and they are just not locking in tonight. OKP>Suzy was ok, Melt was really slow and plodding, and In a Hole was lackluster. Fee was missing from the recording I heard. Possum rocked as usual and it seems theres a lot of crowd interaction going on during the whole set as their friends yell out for songs relentlessly. They roar approval as Fish comes out to do Love You, which was actually good considering the rest of the set, and of course, a vacuum solo. Others in the crowd get their wish as we have a Mikes Groove to close up the set. Mikes was short and rushed like they were tired, Hydrogen was sloppy as was the Groove, though there is some good jamming in there too. Very sloppy second set overall in my opinion.
IDK gets the call for the first encore tonight with more Fishman antics included. Then nobody seems ready when Trey launches in to an average Golgi to close up.
Its not a terribly awful show playing wise or singing, its just not tight. Second set definitely brought this one down a notch for me.

You have followed a link that is no longer valid. Read on to learn more about why.
The Knitter's Review Forums was the first online community for knitters. Launched in 2001, it used a free ASP-based discussion platform called Snitz. At its height, membership was nearly 80,000 members. Over 14 years, it facilitated more than 1 million posts—and connections—among knitters around the world.
We talked about everything, from yarns and needles to blogs, yarn stores, techniques and designers, as well as our worst project nightmares and the curse of the love sweater. Our forum included areas for talk of crochet, spinning, and machine knitting, as well as talk about dyeing and felting. Perhaps the most popular areas were dedicated to "Random Knitting-Related Stuff" and off-topic chatter about anything and everything...except religion, which, as it turned out, was too hot a topic for even us polite knitters.
There was a star/rating system by which members would advance from New Pal to Chatty Knitter, Gabber Extraordinnaire, Seriously Hooked, and, eventually, after their thousandth post, Permanent Resident. People got so excited when they advanced from one level to the next that we had to add a new area for them to celebrate their stars.
With all the arrivals came departures, such as beloved members Camille (Cameellie), Trish (AZKnitter), and Francine Marrs (fmarrs)—whose favorite quote was, "Don't grieve for what you have lost but see how far you can go with what you have left." Go far she did.
Through it all, I worked to maintain an overarching culture of inclusiveness and mutual respect through active moderator oversight. Nothing was ever allowed to get out of hand, and members always knew an adult was in the room.
But Snitz was not one to provide the bells and whistles and extra functionality that knitters wanted. When Jessica and Casey Forbes launched the beta version of Ravelry in 2007, it was a cause for collective celebration in the knitting world. Everyone leapt quickly onto this beautiful, shiny new toy that had been built expressly for us, from the ground up, using state-of-the-art technology.
Most other online knitting communities soon closed, but the Knitter's Review Forums continued for many more years. But on December 31, 2015, I turned out the lights and locked the doors once and for all.
The Knitter's Review Forums were a wild and amazing and beautiful creature that came at a very special time in our collective history. And that's what I hope you'll join me in celebrating.
Today you'll find the Knitter's Review community on Ravelry and on Facebook. You can also follow my own adventures—and connect with a community of creative people in the process—on Instagram.
Thank you!

I started running (with purpose and consistency) almost exactly 2 months ago. When I started, I could already run 2 miles non-stop (running once a month or so but working out in other ways on a regular basis). Now, with actual consistent running under my belt (3-4 times per week) I can *usually* get to about a mile before I have to stop and walk. Sometimes I get to a mile and a half. Sometimes 3/4 of a mile. Sometimes the first TWO are completely effortless and then things go down hill. (I generally try to run about 3 miles at a time and have to walk 2-4 times.) Normally my legs feel tired and heavy and I have trouble breathing. My diet is very consistent, as is my sleep and exercise. I'm fit (my resting HR is 45-48). This past Sunday I ran 4 miles non-stop. They were 4 slow, beautiful, delicious miles. It felt like a spa day. Two days later (easy yoga on the day between), I tried to run 3.5 and had to walk 5 times. I'm extremely frustrated. Am I just being impatient? Or not pushing hard enough? When will it start getting easier/more enjoyable on a consistent basis?
In reading your post, I would say I was actually writing it. I have the same issues you are having. Will be watching for responses/advice. In the meantime, good luck!
I am right there with you as well. I could have written your post too. I completed the C25K in March, but then soccer season started and I was off my schedule until the beginning of June. Off schedule means that instead of 3x a week, I was getting only 2x at most. Now I am trying to get back on track but it seems like all I can do is run one mile and then walk because my lungs are bursting or I have yet another stitch in my side. I am blaming the warmer weather....
....but in the meantime, I am trying to hydrate better 2 hours before a run, eat smarter meals before my runs, and trying to remember the breathing techniques I used when I was just getting started. Due to the increase of side stitches, I cannot eat or drink less than 2 hours before a run. And it is frustrating because I am impatient. I will also be interested in what advice is given here.
I have been having this same issue, so I have decided to do more cross training to help me push beyond this. Started with some yoga, hiking, and longer walks. Last saturday I tried speed work. Running short intervals at full speed then walking in between. I only did 5 intervals total but walked a good bit. I think this is helping.
Good luck
You might want to keep a running log for a couple of weeks to see if the quality of your runs correlates with other factors in your life (diet, sleep, stress, other forms of exercise, etc.) and see if there are any patterns that show up. Sometimes those patterns don't become obvious until they are written down.
2015 highlights...
@ 5K: New Balance Palm Springs 5K, Palm Springs, CA, 24:32
Angels Baseball Foundation 5K, Anaheim, CA, 24:24
Pride of the Valley, Baldwin Park, CA, 24:28
@ 10K: LA Chinatown Firecracker 10K, Los Angeles, CA, 52:15
Great Race of Agoura - Old Agoura 10K, Agoura Hills, CA, 51:40
Fiesta Days Run, La Canada, CA, 49:57
I've been keeping a running-specific log as far as miles run, pace, how many stops, which shoes I'm wearing, where I'm running, time of day, weather, etc., but I haven't been keeping track of diet and sleep (though my sleep is pretty consisten). I also been keeping a seperate, general exercise log. I'll start keeping track of diet and sleep, too, and compare notes. I just feel like, fitness-wise, I could probably run for miles and miles on most days. I feel like it's mainly my legs holding me back and I get angry and frustrated and then my mental game goes to sh*t. Defniitely need to work on that!
I am guessing that you are relatively new to running, and that you never competed in races or engaged in a serious training program. If that is the case, you are asking your body to do an activity that is completely alien. It is going to take a lot of time and dedication. You need to be patient. Even elite runners have their off days. It is all relative.
I don't know what kind of surfaces you are running on, but if it is mostly street running or hard surfaces, the pounding will make you feel more fatigued than if you were running on a dirt trail or grass surface.
Another factor is your running form. There are a lot of videos on the internet about good running form that you can watch for free. Basically, you need to keep your shoulders back, hips forward, lift your knees high (but no too high) and keep you arms low but moving straight forward. It is good to focus on proper running form until it becomes habit. You will avoid injuries and run more efficiently with proper form. I have been running since I was 9 years old, and I still have to remember to focus on my form, especially when I feel fatigued.
The main thing about running is to enjoy and to remain dedicated to achieving your goals.
No offense, but really, 2 months is nothing, and not enough to be worrying so much. I've been running for 27 years and I still have days when 5 miles just glides by - and other days when 3 miles feel like a marathon. I would suggest that you take it a little easier on your pace. I particularly noticed one line ". . . I ran 4 miles non-stop. They were 4 slow, beautiful, delicious miles . . ." So it sounds like you had a very relaxed, easy, slow run. The first thing you want to try to do is be comfortable with your pace. When you push too hard, everything gets hard. And you're no longer having fun. Save the hard stuff for when you're doing race-specific training.
I feel ya!! I had a CRAPPY 5k run today This is my 4th 5k, and I did the Phila Broad Street 10-miler last month. Today, I couldn't get to the mile marker before I had to walk and couldn't breath. I was so upset, and more disappointed. Does anyone think it could be that I'm normally an "evening" runner, and have been running on the treadmill to try to up my pace?
I'd be happy though if someone could at least tell me that all runners have a bad day here and there...?
These have been touched on already but are worth repeating. First, slow down. Second, be patient. Third, keep a detailed log of nutrition (including the day prior to your run), pace, location, weather, etc. This will help you weed on any variables. But honestly, two months is a short time to run cosistently without some body fatique. The key is to keep the pace slow and let your body build up the endurance.
"He is best; who is trained in the severest school."
- General Thucydides, 424BC
You're correct (AnaheimHillRunner) that I'm new to running. Over the years I've attempted to "be a runner." This means that I would randomly decide to go out and run and then, when I wasn't a superstar right away (meaning I huffed and puffed my way through half a mile before I had to walk), I'd give up on that idea. Lather, rinse, repeat about once or twice a year for the last 15 or so years. I've been saying for years that I wanted to "someday run a 5k." Back in April a friend (also not a runner) suggested we register and begin training for a 10k. At that time, it was 5.5 months away, so I said okay. I immediately started training. I'm competitive and looked up the results from the previous years' races (the same one I was doing) to see what pace my age group was running/placing in. I'll admit, yes, I tried to go too fast, too soon. (And even my fast wasn't NEARLY as fast as everyone else's fast.) Anyway, I ended up running a 5k at the beginning of June and did it in 30:20 and was super disappointed with that time. Since a friend of mine ran a 5k the week before in 23:23 I was feeling discouraged after the race. I KNOW I've been running for like 5 minutes, but I still feel like I should be running faster & longer. It really does help to know that even experienced runners still have even short runs that they struggle through sometimes. I'll definitely slow down (though sometimes I feel like I'm jogging in place) and just focus on everything except my time for the 10k (Sept. 16th). I also, stupidly, perhaps, agreed to be part of a 4-person team for a marathon relay two weeks later on September 30th. I somehow wound up with the longest leg (8.8 miles). I'll finish my leg or die trying, but it probably won't be pretty.
PitbullsMom--It KILLS me that most races are in the AM. I don't function in the AM and I do all my running in the evening. I think I'll need to force myself to do some pre-work running prior to September for additional "training."
Thanks everyone for the tips. I'll start keeping track of nutrition and sleep (in addition to everything else I log), slow way down until I can build a good, solid base, and perhaps not be so damn hard on myself.

I spent several years in the military, getting up at 5 am for PT...and hated every second of those early morning workouts. I'd rather stay up to run at 1am than get up at 6am.
ME TOO!!! I am such a night owl I can get up and run. I do it every run. This past saturday I think I just started off too fast. I'm still sort of learning "my own way" you know? It's only my 4th 5k, but I did do the Broad Street run. To be honest, I had a goal too of beating a friend of mine and I think that was karma kind of kicking me in the butt haha!
I don't even go to the gym in the morning. I just can't do it. Getting up at 5:00 a.m...uuugghhh and you had to get up and be ON!!
Any words of wisdom you can give are gladly appreciated!!!

Craig and Jenny (and a broken camera)
The new camera has already been purchased and as soon as I figure out all the bells and whistles, I'll be able to resume blogging. I'm hoping that will be as soon as tomorrow, but sometimes I overestimate my ability to learn technical things and if I actually have to resort to reading the manual, I'll see you all next week sometime...LOL!

An 8-year-old Hannibal girl was taken to Hannibal Regional Hospital Friday, Nov. 1, after being attacked by a pit bull.
The Hannibal Fire Department was called to the 200 block of Quincy Street, near Walnut Street, at 3:36 p.m. Friday.
Firefighters reported the girl went to the hospital, and the dog was picked up by the animal control officer.
According to a report on KHQA-TV, the girl suffered puncture wounds to her upper leg, stomach and chest.
The TV report stated Animal Control Officer Tim Ledbetter was on the scene and said the dog, a 1-year-old male pit bull named Capone, got loose from its home on West Terrace Street .
Ledbetter said the dog will be deemed dangerous after the unprovoked attack. The dog was up to date on his rabies vaccinations.

text: Obviously it'll have a better name that 'my new fantasy' So I've started work on a new fantasy novel (my third attempt, after the last two didn't get very far and I lost passion for them... that's not a spectre looming over this work!) and I've decided I'll be trying to steer away from cliches. That doesn't mean it'll be all new creatures (sentient and not), or all new spells or all new types of places. There'll be whatever I can think of, of course, and I'll try my best to be original. But the point of this work is to avoid cliches, and to do so when it's possible without stretching credibility (sometimes bending over backwards to go anti-cliche is just contrived, obviously, or it just stands out like a sore thumb for one reason or another). This is my sounding board. People can give me feedback on ideas - not the actual writing, that goes somewhere else I think, although I could be talked into posting it on this forum in the appropriate place. I'm just going to use this thread as a 'master thread' and bounce ideas around in general.

While certainly not the most polished-looking of websites, the page for the Scripps Center for Metabolomics and Mass Spectrometry is worth a visit. The Center is focused on developing mass spectrometry-based methods to study and characterize metabolites; as such, a large portion of the website is devoted to introducing visitors to mass spectrometry (MS). This includes a history of mass spec, as well as a very detailed introductory section that answers the question, what is mass spec? The content is very useful, although navigation through the various text sections of the website is somewhat cumbersome. (For instance, when navigating to specific sections of the text via the table of contents, there is considerable lag.) Beyond informing the masses about MS, the website also links to METLIN, a metabolite and tandem MS database, as well as to XCMS online, which is an online MS data processing tool.

Fans' behavior was a shame
Published: Monday, November 12, 2012 at 2:51 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, November 12, 2012 at 2:51 p.m.
I love LSU football. I love everything about it: the sights, the sounds and the smell of the air on Saturday nights thick with bourbon and Creole spices.
I love to yell as loud as I can every time our defense steps onto the field, and I even like the soreness in my throat on Sunday mornings.
Being an LSU fan runs deep in my family, and going to Tiger Stadium is a privileged connection, not only to our university, but to our ancestors who helped to build it, one game, one scream at a time, into the most intimidating place to play college football. My grandfather didn't miss a game in more than 40 seasons. My parents have been season ticket holders for more than 30 years, and I hope my three daughters will one day carry on the tradition with their children.
With those who have gone before us in mind, I must take issue with the students and other fans that first booed the Alabama band, and then later participated in an obscene cheer directed at Alabama Coach Nick Saban.
Such displays are not welcome and are what my old high school coach would call "bush-league."
They are not worthy of a great university or our top-ranked ball club, and they dishonor those who have gone before us to build one of our state's great traditions. Being vulgar for vulgarity's sake is not collegiate, and these negative outbursts do nothing to serve our players and coaches and conversely rally the other team.
Sure, I "love to hate" the Tide as much as anyone who bleeds purple and gold, and I'm by no stretch a prude, but the University of Alabama is our conference peer, and their players, band and fans were our guests and should have been respected as worthy competitors.
As a young man, I was taught that sportsmanship was an important part of being a player, and that it was important to both win and lose with dignity.
Sadly, some of our fans decided to sacrifice our community's character with these low-class displays.

OAKLAND -- For the first time in nearly a decade, A's co-owner Lew Wolff said Oakland might have a viable location for a new ballpark, but it's not the waterfront site being pushed by local business leaders -- it's the Coliseum complex.
Reacting to newly-released details of the bayfront plan, Wolff on Monday said that a stadium on Port of Oakland property looking out toward the Bay was "absolutely impossible." But in a departure from years of declaring that he had exhausted all his options in Oakland, Wolff told this newspaper, "That doesn't mean there isn't a place in Oakland where you could do something."
The most likely location, he said, "would be where we're at right now. On land controlled by (the city and county)."
Wolff's comments come with his efforts to move the team to San Jose mired in court, where anxious officials of that city are squaring off with Major League Baseball, which has rejected the current proposal to build a stadium there.
The result is a team stuck in limbo, a fact Wolff tacitly acknowledged in the interview. Rather than continue his critiques of the aging Coliseum, Wolff emphasized that the team has "an excellent relationship" with the joint Oakland-Alameda County board that runs the Coliseum complex and would like a longer-term lease than the recently signed two-year extension.
When told of Wolff's comments, Oakland Mayor Jean Quan said, "I think that's progress, and we'll reach out and continue to talk to him."
San Jose Mayor Chuck Reed said he knew nothing about the Oakland sites other than that the city has been working on them for a very long time. "They've struck out time and time again," he said. "Now it's time for San Jose to get a chance to bat."
The A's landing spot is no clearer today than it was in 2005, when Wolff last considered building a stadium in East Oakland. After failing to secure stadium deals in Oakland and Fremont, Wolff turned to San Jose only to become locked in a stalemate with the San Francisco Giants, who control the territorial rights to the Bay Area's largest city and don't want to surrender its sizable corporate base. Major League Baseball has been mulling the A's proposal to move south for more than four years.
Earlier this year, San Jose sued to try to force the league's acquiescence by targeting its valuable exemption from antitrust laws.
Wolff's refusal to outright dismiss the Coliseum site comes on the heels of Oakland business leaders renewing their push for a privately-financed stadium at the 51-acre Howard Terminal site just north of Jack London Square.
The consortium, which includes Clorox CEO Don Knauss and developer Mike Ghielmetti, commissioned a recently-released artist rendering of a gleaming 38,000-seat ballpark overlooking the Oakland Estuary on land owned by the port. They also are working to secure control of the site and begin environmental reviews and permit applications in hopes that Wolff and his partner, John J. Fisher, will jump on board or sell them the team.
But Wolff reiterated that the team is not for sale and that his studies of the site showed that it would require an expensive environmental cleanup and present access issues with the nearest BART station nearly a mile a way.
"It may get an A in artist renderings, but it's an F in implementation," he said. "We know that we can't do a ballpark on that site."
Advocates say the environmental hurdles can be overcome and that the stadium would provide an anchor for future development in the city center and along the waterfront, where more than 3,000 homes are slated to be built before the end of the decade.
"Nothing that Lew Wolff says about the Coliseum will keep us from moving forward with our plan," one source close to the Howard Terminal group said.
In recent months, city officials in Oakland have been pitching both the waterfront and Coliseum complex as viable locations for a new A's stadium. At the Coliseum, the city is negotiating with a development group headed by real estate titan Colony Capital for an ambitious project aimed at transforming the site into a sports and entertainment hub with new stadiums, shops, homes and a hotel. However, several officials, including members of the Alameda County Board of Supervisors, remain skeptical of the plan.
A's fans fighting to keep the team in Oakland were quick to note that Wolff has made prior statements that turned out not to have much relevance. In September, he said it was important that the A's have a downtown stadium, which caught people's attention because he didn't' specify that it had to be downtown San Jose.
Still his most recent comments opening the door just a little to the Coliseum complex had Oakland fans hoping that, after four years of inertia in San Jose, he was finally giving the city another shot.
"It sounds like good news," said Jim Zelinski of Save Oakland Sports. "That's the first time I've heard in eight years that Oakland could still conceivably be in the game."

Recent Progress is Staggering
Week in Review: Participation from Health Care Ecosystem Means Continued Progress
09.27.13 | By
From programs that provide access to medicines, to the development of innovative new treatments, the recent progress we've made is staggering.
Our CEO John Castellani noted in a blog post this week that all members of the R&D process, from patients to researchers to academics, play a significant role in development process. It is through their participation that we have seen continued advances.
Elizabeth Joyce of The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research (MJFF) echoed this sentiment by discussing the importance of patient involvement in the R&D process in a blog post. Joyce specifically cited the increased need for clinical trials volunteers. With 85 percent of clinical trials across all diseases facing delays and 30 percent never even getting off the ground due to low enrollment, encouraging patients to become more involved in the trials process is essential. As a result, MJFF created the Fox Trial Finder program to help patients find clinical trials close to home.
Encouraging collaboration among researchers and patients is also important. To bring together these two groups, PhRMA is hosting an all-day forum with the Alzheimer's Association and Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation Oct. 23 to discuss the challenges facing Alzheimer's clinical trials participation and other issues related to the disease. This discussion will examine the collaborative efforts between top industry and academic scientists, patients, policymakers and other stakeholders, as we work toward developing Alzheimer's treatments.
Patient groups are a very important part of the equation, and successful programs like Medicare Part D have also contributed to the medical advances we've seen in recent years. The Part D program, which will celebrate its 10th anniversary next month, provides seniors with the medicines they need, and a recent survey found the program's satisfaction rate to be 90 percent among seniors. Our work, however, is never done and CEO John Castellani asked experts to discuss what can be done to improve Medicare Part D and make continued progress on our "Conversations Forum."
For more on the 10th anniversary of Medicare Part D and what the biopharmaceutical industry is doing, be sure to check the Catalyst regularly, like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter.

How My Mom Suckered Me Into Seeing a Fancy Beverly Hills Dermatologist
It was all she wanted for Christmas. I had to go.
As bizarre as this request sounds, I wasn't surprised when my mom called to tell me this last December. Most mothers ask their daughters for a pair of slippers, or maybe a cute scarf. But my mom? She's a special one.
My mom is so obsessed with skin care you'd think she was the First Lady running on a platform of sun damage awareness. Seriously, she makes Michelle Obama look lazy when it comes to her childhood obesity campaign. Mom sent me a box filled with almost a dozen types of sunscreen -- all with an SPF of 75 or higher -- when I told her I was moving to Los Angeles. The note read, "A few essentials for your move to Southern California."
So I wasn't exactly shocked when my mom insisted that my Christmas gift to her focus on my skin care regimen. "You live in Beverly Hills," she said. "There have to be some renowned dermatologists there. Please make an appointment with a really good one. That's all I want."
I rolled my eyes, and tried to suppress a whiny, "But, mommmm." I'm 27 and my mom is still making me do stuff. But what kind of awful daughter would I be to deny my mom this totally selfless Christmas present?
"OK, I'll make an appointment -- but that's not all you're getting. Expect some clothes or something from J.Crew," I say, defiantly. My mom laughed. "The dermatologist appointment is the only thing I want!" She paused and added, "Well, that, and maybe take your car in for an oil change. I feel like you haven't done that in a while."
She's not joking.
Even though I acted totally put out by my mom's request, it's actually not that hard to make an appointment with an excellent derm. I am a beauty editor, and I live in the land of renowned dermatologists. I figure if I'm going to do this, I may as well do it up right. It is my mom's Christmas present, after all. So I make an appointment with the most renowned dermatologist I can think of, Dr. Ava Shamban, who is the expert dermatologist from "Extreme Makeover" and author of "Heal Your Skin".
After I book my appointment, I actually start to get kind of excited. My mom is right; I haven't seen a dermatologist in a while, and I probably should. I actually like my skin, and it is the largest organ in my body (a fact that's always freaked me out), so I want to keep it looking good for as long as possible. I've heard amazing things about Dr. Shamban, and I feel like I've won the skin care lottery by scoring an appointment with her.
OK, so essentially what I'm dancing around here is...maybe my mom was right.

Very nice article. $900 for Restylane is quite reasonable. I'm assuming the doc was recommending a modest amount for that price. Her mother seems caring, but quite overbearing. She's 27, not 7.

Just a question--if the dermatologist said she had beautiful skin, why inject her with Restylane? This is what keeps me from trusting certain members of the medical industry--money, money, money! I did enjoy the mother-daughter conversation immensely.

METAIRIE -- Saints right tackle Zach Strief is questionable for Sunday's game against San Francisco after being limited during practice every day this week.
That makes it likely that rookie tackle Bryce Harris will pick up his first career start, something he said Thursday he was ready to do.
Equally as important is that cornerback Elbert Mack is out. He was limited Friday after not practicing the previous two days because of a concussion. The Saints will have only three healthy players at the position and would use safety Malcolm Jenkins if pressed.
Running back Darren Sproles (left hand) was full once again and is listed as probable. The Saints' dynamic running back hasn't played since breaking his hand in Denver on Oct. 28.
Meanwhile, tackle Charles Brown (right knee), cornerback Corey White (left knee) and defensive end Junior Galette (left ankle) all didn't practice and are out for Sunday's game.
