Berlin mayor: Northern Pass benefits to Coos County should not be overlooked

Article: Immunoregulatory cytokines in mouse placental extracts inhibit in vitro osteoclast differentiation of murine macrophages[Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: INTRODUCTION: Previous studies showed that placental extracts (PE) alleviates arthritic symptoms in animal models of arthritis. METHODS: To evaluate whether murine PEs obtained at embryonic days 7.5 (PE7) and 17.5 (PE18) regulate RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation, RAW 264.7 cells were cultured with RANKL and MCSF in presence or not of PEs. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) was stained and multinucleated TRAP positive cells were visualized under a light microscope. Cathepsin K and metalloprotease expression was assessed by RT-PCR and gelatin zymography respectively. NFATc1 expression was determined by immunoblot. To analyze NFAT-dependent transcription, macrophages were transfected with a luciferase reporter plasmid. Cytokines were determined in PEs by ELISA and immunoblot. Transforming growth factor (TGF)- beta and Interleukin (IL)-10 receptor were inhibited in cell cultures with specific antibodies. RESULTS: PE7 and PE18 inhibited RANKL-induced multinucleated TRAP positive cells, Cathepsin K expression and metalloprotease activity, as well as NFATc1 expression and activity, thereby inhibiting osteoclast differentiation of RAW cells. Inflammatory/Regulatory cytokine ratio was higher in PE7 than in PE18. Blocking TGF-beta abolished the effect of both, PE7 and PE18, on multinucleated TRAP positive cells and metalloprotease expression, whereas blocking IL-10 receptor reverted the effect of PE18 but not of PE7. DISCUSSION: Inhibition of osteoclast differentiation by PEs was not unexpected, since cytokines detected in extracts were previously found to regulate osteoclast differentiation. CONCLUSIONS: PEs inhibited osteoclast differentiation of macrophages in vitro. Downregulation of NFATc1 might be involved in this effect. Regulatory/Th2 cytokines play a role in the effect of PEs on osteoclast differentiation.
Article: Angiotensin II Activates the Calcineurin/NFAT Signaling Pathway and Induces Cyclooxygenase-2 Expression in Rat Endometrial Stromal Cells[Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: Cyclooxygenase (COX)-2, the inducible isoform of cyclooxygenase, plays a role in the process of uterine decidualization and blastocyst attachment. On the other hand, overexpression of COX-2 is involved in the proliferation of the endometrial tissue during endometriosis. Deregulation of the renin-angiotensin-system plays a role in the pathophysiology of endometriosis and pre-eclampsia. Angiotensin II increases intracellular Ca(2+) concentration by targeting phospholypase C-gamma in endometrial stromal cells (ESC). A key element of the cellular response to Ca(2+) signals is the activity of the Ca(2+)- and calmodulin-dependent phosphatase calcineurin. Our first aim was to study whether angiotensin II stimulated Cox-2 gene expression in rat ESC and to analyze whether calcineurin activity was involved. In cells isolated from non-pregnant uteri, COX-2 expression--both mRNA and protein--was induced by co-stimulation with phorbol ester and calcium ionophore (PIo), as well as by angiotensin II. Pretreatment with the calcineurin inhibitor cyclosporin A inhibited this induction. We further analyzed the role of the calcineurin/NFAT signaling pathway in the induction of Cox-2 gene expression in non-pregnant rat ESC. Cyclosporin A abolished NFATc1 dephosphorylation and translocation to the nucleus. Cyclosporin A also inhibited the transcriptional activity driven by the Cox-2 promoter. Exogenous expression of the peptide VIVIT -specific inhibitor of calcineurin/NFAT binding- blocked the activation of Cox-2 promoter and the up-regulation of COX-2 protein in these cells. Finally we analyzed Cox-2 gene expression in ESC of early-pregnant rats. COX-2 expression--both mRNA and protein--was induced by stimulation with PIo as well as by angiotensin II. This induction appears to be calcineurin independent, since it was not abrogated by cyclosporin A. In conclusion, angiotensin II induced Cox-2 gene expression by activating the calcineurin/NFAT signaling pathway in endometrial stromal cells of non-pregnant but not of early-pregnant rats. These results might be related to differential roles that COX-2 plays in the endometrium.

About This Condition
Empty Sella Syndrome
What is empty sella syndrome?Empty sella syndrome (ESS) may occur if you have an enlarged sella turcica. This is a bony structure where the pituitary gland sits at the base of the brain. During an imaging test of the area, the pituitary gland may first look like it is missing. In primary ESS, the pituitary gland is usually flattened. This type is more common in women who are obese and have high blood pressure. It has also been linked to a buildup of fluid in the brain. In secondary ESS, the pituitary gland may be small because of injury, radiation therapy, or surgery.
What causes empty sella syndrome?Doctors do not know what causes primary ESS. Secondary ESS may be caused by injury, radiation therapy, or surgery. ESS is not a life-threatening illness.
What are the symptoms of empty sella syndrome?
You may not have any symptoms. If symptoms occur, they may include:
- Impotence in men
- Less desire for sex
- Irregular menstrual periods in women
Symptoms vary from person to person. They also depend on your age and what caused the syndrome. Symptoms may look like other health problems. Always see your health care provider for a diagnosis.
How is empty sella syndrome diagnosed?
Your health care provider will ask about your past health and do a physical exam. You may also need these tests:
- CT scan. This test uses X-rays and a computer to make images of your body. It helps find any problems.
- MRI. This test creates 2-D views of an internal organ or structures, especially the brain or spinal cord.
How is empty sella syndrome treated?
Your health care provider will figure out the best treatment for you based on:
- How old you are
- Your overall health and past health
- How sick you are
- How well you can handle specific medicines, procedures, or therapies
- How long the condition is expected to last
- Your opinion or preference
You may not need treatment if you do not have any symptoms, and if your pituitary gland is not enlarged. Your health care provider will treat any hormone problems with hormone replacement.
When should I call my health care provider?Call your health care provider if your symptoms get worse or you have new ones.
Key points
- ESS may happen if you have an enlarged sella turcica. This is a bony structure where the pituitary gland sits at the base of the brain. The syndrome is not life-threatening.
- The syndrome may not cause any symptoms. If symptoms occur, they may include impotence, less desire for sex, and irregular menstrual periods.
- You may not need treatment if you do not have symptoms, and if your pituitary gland is not enlarged.
Next steps
Tips to help you get the most from a visit to your health care provider:
- Before your visit, write down questions you want answered.
- Bring someone with you to help you ask questions and remember what your provider tells you.
- At the visit, write down the names of new medicines, treatments, or tests, and any new instructions your provider gives you.
- If you have a follow-up appointment, write down the date, time, and purpose for that visit.
- Know how you can contact your provider if you have questions.

Roadside assistance calls to AAA Mid-Atlantic are up in Virginia because of cold temperatures.
AAA Mid-Atlantic spokeswoman Martha Meade says calls jumped 60 percent between 8 a.m. and 9 a.m. Tuesday. Calls remained higher than normal two hours later.
Meade says in a news release that the increase likely is also due to late school openings in some areas.
The majority of calls were from motorists whose cars had dead batteries, wouldn't start, or needed to be towed.
Meade says AAA Mid-Atlantic expects a similar volume of calls on Wednesday morning.

Surface Area and Volume
At a Glance - Volume and Density
Volume is a gateway to a lot of other concepts like density, which is a fancy word for the ratio between mass and volume. If something has a high density, then it weighs a lot even if the volume is really small.
A tub of water and a tub of chocolate take up the same amount of space (volume), but the chocolate would weigh more than the water (mass) because of density. It would also be a lot tastier than water, but that has nothing to do with density.
Here's a handy formula to find an object's density, where d is density, M is mass, and V is our old buddy, volume:
d = M⁄V
Pretty simple, right? Just divide the mass by the volume. We can also rearrange it to find mass or volume when we know the other two:
M = dV
V = M⁄d
Sample Problem
We have a rectangular carton filled with strawberry Jell-O (after all, strawberry is the best flavor). If strawberry Jell-O weighs 5 pounds per cubic foot, how much does all the Jell-O weigh?
Here's the game plan: We'll find the volume first, multiply by the density, and find the mass that way. Ready? Break!
V = Bh = l × w × h
V = (0.7 ft)(0.8 ft)(1 ft)
V = 0.56 ft3
We have 0.56 ft3 of strawberry Jell-O in the carton. To find the mass, we need to multiply the volume by the density. If we do that, we can see that the cubic feet will cancel each other out and we'll be left with pounds.
M = dV
M = (5 lbs/ft3)(0.56 ft3)
M = 2.8 lbs
Our carton of strawberry Jell-O weighs 2.8 lbs. Bon appétit.

Obama marvels at ancient cityThe Associated Press | March 24,2013AP Photo
President Barack Obama tours the ancient city of Petra in Jordan on Saturday during his trip to the Middle East.PETRA, Jordan President Barack Obama set aside the Middle Easts tricky politics Saturday to marvel at the beauty of one of the regions most stunning sites, the fabled ancient city of Petra.
This is pretty spectacular, he said, craning his neck to gaze up at the rock faces after emerging from a narrow pathway into a sun-splashed plaza in front of the grand Treasury.
The soaring facade is considered the masterpiece of the ancient city carved into the rose-red stone by the Nabataeans more than 2,000 years ago.
Obamas turn as tourist capped a four-day visit to the Middle East that included stops in Israel and the West Bank, as well asJordan. The White House set low policy expectations for the trip, and the president was returning to Washington with few tangible achievements to show.
Aides said his intention instead was to reassure the regions politicians and people particularly in Israel that he is committed to their security and prosperity.
Curious residents and picture-taking tourists lined the streets of modern Petra as Obamas motorcade wound toward the entrance to the ancient city. The president, dressed in khaki pants, a black jacket and hiking boots, began his walking tour at the entrance to the Siq, a narrow, winding gorge cutting between two soaring cliffs.
The path opened into a dusty plaza with the massive columned Treasury as its centerpiece. Obama declared the carved monument is amazing.
The Bedouins named the building the Treasury because they believed that urns sculpted on top of it contained great treasures. In reality, the urns represented a memorial for Nabataean royalty.
Over time, historians have disagreed on the Treasurys purpose. However, a recent excavation proved that a graveyard exists underneath it.
The Nabataeans established Petra as a crucial junction for trade routes linking China, India and southern Arabia with Egypt, Syria, Greece and Rome. The city flourished until trade routes were redirected in the seventh century, leading to Petras demise.
Petra is Jordans most popular tourist attraction, drawing more than a half million visitors yearly since 2007. It may be familiar to many people who saw the 1989 movie, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Some scenes were filmed in the ancient city.
High winds and overcast skies nearly grounded Marine One, the presidential helicopter, in the Jordanian capital of Amman, which would have forced Obama to scrap the tourist stop. But the weather cleared enough for him and his delegation to make the hour-long flight across Jordans rugged landscape, arriving in Petra under bright sunshine.
The president departed Jordan after the tour and was due back in Washington late Saturday.MORE IN This Just InPolice said a Rutland man knocked out another mans teeth.

The course takes a look at the hardware and software issues behind field shooting: assessing storage and backup needs, evaluating GPS geotagging options, surveying power and charging issues, and more. After discussing each of the components, Ben shows how they fit together in different field setups, ranging from an extravagant laptop-based system to a no-computer setup that backs up photos to a compact digital wallet device. The course also spotlights some workflow strategies to consider when you get home, from transferring photos to merging them with a larger photo library.
- Selecting the right gear, from cameras to bags
- Bringing the right battery and storage equipment
- Packing your camera bag
- Getting to the destination with heavy equipment
- Unpacking and setting up the gear
- Geotagging photos on location
- Downloading manuals for convenient access in the field
- Wrapping up a shoot
- Unpacking and transferring images to an editing workstation
Skill Level Intermediate
All right! First of all, let me say I never actually set up a tent this quickly. I particularly don't set up this tent this quickly. I borrowed this tent from a friend and it turned out to be much more of a tent then I bargained for. It actually says on the side that it's a manor and I believe that I think it's bigger than the room I was staying in back at the resort. So I'm excited about this. I'm living in the lap of luxury here in the middle of nowhere. Something that's actually good about a tent the size is if the weather turns bad, I can get all my gear into it. Of course, I could also put it in the car, but sometimes you don't have that much time with weather changing quickly.
We don't have to worry about that here--the weather is going to fine--but that is something you need to think about when you're out camping obviously, or even just doing long, long day hikes in the city or the country, is inclement weather. Your camera is much more durable than you probably think it is. Just because it's raining outside doesn't mean you shouldn't go out and shoot. But if it's a real downpour, obviously you need a way of keeping your stuff dry. So I'm glad that I could retreat into the manor that I've set up if needed to. So, this is what I brought. I have culled my gear down.
I've packed a bunch of it away at the hotel and I've chosen to bring mostly this. It's still lot of gear, because I've got the great luxury of course of traveling by car. For the most part, I have brought all my lenses. I ditched one of them, and that was my 50 mm f/1.2 lens, for the simple reason that honestly I don't do a lot of shooting at 50 mm. I know Cartier-Bresson used that lens exclusively, but he was a genius. I just usually find that I want something a little wider or a little more telephoto. I love it for its speed.
It's a great portrait lens, it's not something that I typically find myself using out here, and it's heavy, so I left it behind. So what I've got is pretty similar to what I had working around the towns. I've got my walk around lens, my 24-105. Again this gives me a little bit of wide angle, little bit of telephoto, reasonable speed at f/4 all the way across. I have my 16-35 f/2.8. This is probably the lens that I'm going to be using the most around the campsite or here under the trees. It gives me a really nice wide angle that I can use for composing with the kinds of things that you find in the forest.
I have two long telephotos. I've a 75-300 that has--that can go 3. 5 -5. 6 across its range, or I have this 70-200 that is 2.8 all the way across. This is a heavy lens. It's a big lens, and it doesn't quite have the reach of this lens, so why would I choose this over this? It's a faster lens and it's actually just better-quality glass. It's got this extra kick in them contrast that this lens just doesn't quite have. This is a great lens for those times when I want the extra reach and I want shallow depth of field or if I'm needing to get my shutter speed up to stop some motion.
So, I think for some of the hiking that I'm going to be doing, I'm going to be carrying this lens instead of this lens, because there are some birds around here and I think I might like to try a little bit of wildlife shooting. I have my micro lens, which could be fun around here. I haven't had a chance to look too much into macro possibilities around here. And I've got my fisheye that I've been playing with and I'm still really enjoying. I'm not going to carry all of these lenses at once. So even out here, I'm going to be making the same kind of decisions that I was making in town. I'm going to say, you know, today I'm doing birds. I'm going to really practice my wildlife photography.
I'm going to pack this lens and my walk-around lens. I might even pack both of these because this one has a little bit longer reach, but I know I really want to kind of get better at that and practice that. It's not my usual thing. If it is your usual thing, then you're certainly going to want to spend at least a day just doing that. On another day, I might again decide to commit to some macro stuff, maybe not all day, but maybe I want to spend a morning doing that. In either situation, I'm going to take my walk-around lens. It always goes with me. I'm also going to head out and just do some hiking. Now, some of these lens decisions depend simply on weight.
What am I going to carry? I want to carry quite a few lenses, but I also need to carry water for the hike. I need to maybe carry some snacks, maybe a rain jacket or something with sleeves in case it gets colder. So, I need a bag that's big enough to carry all that, but more importantly, I need something that's going to distribute the weight on both shoulders. I don't like carrying two or three or four lenses, four heavy lenses on a shoulder bag. It makes my neck hurt. So I've got this backpack that I'm going to be using. Now, I've got a couple of other accessories that I like to have with me. I am going to be hiking with my tripod again, because this is just day hiking and I'm down here under the trees.
There is some running water down there. I think I may want the opportunity to set up and trying to do some blurry water shots, so I also have a neutral-density filter. This is a variable neutral-density filter, so rather than having to carry a lot of filters that I stack up, this is kind of like a polarizer. I can dial it to get different amounts of ND effect. So this is a nice lightweight way of dealing with a lot of filter situations. I've still got my infrared, because I've been playing with that, got extra media, I've a remote control, a wireless remote control, because I was thinking, it might be fun to do some self-portraits or something around here.
I have, for power, my car. I know that my batteries are really good here. I've got, on this Canon camera, my batteries will last for days. Now it's a tricky thing is I've got a lot of batteries and some are newer than others. And so I've marked them according to their age, and I'm very careful about what battery I put in here. I have maybe five batteries. I don't want to bring them all with me on this trip, so I left a lot of them behind at the hotel room. I brought only the really good ones. I can charge those in the car.
This looks like a pretty normal battery charger. I slip the battery in here and it can plug in to the wall, but it can also plug into a cigarette lighter adapter. This is not a Canon battery charger. This is an--I don't know what battery charger. It's just a generic charger that I found on Amazon. This with the card charger was only $15. Normally Canon sells just the charger for 35 or more, so these are really great bargains for getting a good variety of charging options. So, I've got a battery in here now that I think is going to last a couple of days.
That might be all that I need. If I need to charge, I can charge it up in the car, and very often on a trip like this, you might be driving other places. There is another trailhead up the road that I want to go to, so that's a chance to get my battery some juice. Or if you're not in a camping situation, again, if you're in a backpacking-across-Europe kind of situation, if you rented a car, you can charge it there. Otherwise, you can charge in whatever hotel rooms you're staying in when you get there in the evening. So I'm good for power. For storage, I've got a fair amount of media cards, but in the evening I'm going to be offloading them to my--in this case it's a HyperDrive. So this is simply a hard drive with a media slot, so I'll be dumping my cards in here.
I am then going to not erase the cards until I need them again and so in that way I'll have a little bit of redundancy. We'll look at that again later. I did not bring a computer. I brought an iPad. So in the evening if I want, I might be transferring images to the iPad, not for storage, but because I may want to see if I got good results from what I was trying to do. I may want to go ahead and start some editing and I may want to prepare some images for sending off somewhere else. I have no connectivity here, but that doesn't mean I couldn't find some nearby. So, that's my setup here. Of course, I've also just got the normal things that I need for hiking. I got good hiking shoes on.
Again, I've got a pack. This pack in addition to carrying camera gear can also carry a CamelBak hydration pack, so this is how I can carry water on the trail, got some snacks, that kind of thing. The light starting to turn good. I want to get out there on the trail, so I'm going to start packing my bag and head out to start shooting.

text: I'm using Postie 1.4.15 and this doesn't appear to be a Postie problem but maybe you can help with a solution to the possible WordPress issue with a Postie update (?). I'm having an issue where if a person posts a message with the subject(title) for example 1/1/13, WordPress creates a post with the url /1113 which is fine. But when I click on the link in the email, it goes to that location and can't find the post. If I then resave the post URL to say 1_1_13 then everything works fine. If I change the URL back to /1113 WordPress doesn't find it. Is there a way to make the character "/" come in as a hyphen or something instead of being dropped? I have no idea why a number like this returns a 404.

I'm loving the Link Library plugin! However, I have a strange formatting issue. My list has a large white space inserted above it.
I've worked out, that the size of the space, depends entirely on how many links I have set to appear per page.
For example,if I have Links per Page set to '5' there are 5 blank paragraphs appearing between the title and the links table. If I have Links per Page set to '15', then 15 blank paragraphs appear between the title and links table).
Has anyone else seen this, or can anyone provide a tip on how this might be fixed?

Thanks for all your effort on this plugin. It seems so promising!
I'm trying to disable the SimplePop plugin on several pages. However, enabling/disabling by page does not work, and by URL either. If I globally disable the plugin, it is disabled, but then it cannot be re-enabled on certain pages.
I've tried:
+ creating the database tables suggestion via SQL (they already exist)
+ checking that the MU file is present in the mu-plugins folder
+ reinstalling the plugin
I think it may have to do with the structure of the SimplePop plugin maybe that doesn't allow it worked with?
Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks!

Judicial Survivors' Annuities System Costs

Pursuant to a legislative requirement, GAO reviewed certain aspects of the Judicial Survivors' Annuities Systems (JSAS), which provides annuities to the surviving spouses and dependent children of deceased federal judges and other judicial officials who participate in JSAS.
GAO noted that: (1) the participating judges did not pay one-half of the JSAS normal cost during fiscal years 1996 through 1998; (2) they paid on average about 40 percent over the 3-year period; (3) however, the participating judges' contributions represented an increasing share of normal costs over the period, starting at about 36 percent in fiscal year 1996 and growing to about 45 percent in fiscal year 1998; (4) on the basis of information contained in JSAS' 1998 actuarial report, to cover one-half of the future costs, the judges'contribution would need to increase 0.3 percentage points above the 2.2 percent of salary currently paid by retired judges; and (5) increasing required contributions could affect the judges' rate of participation, which was one of the major reasons for enhancing JSAS' benefits and reducing the judges contributions in 1992.

Their latest release is a remix of rising pop starlette Elliphant's single "Never Been In Love," a bass bumping rework paired with Elliphant's vocals that remind us a little bit of something from Major Lazer's camp. Take a listen below and as a bonus, stream their latest original release "N2DEEP."

red heart yarn
in one of the topics i saw that 1 person said that the worse mistake theyd made was buying red heart yarn. this kinda confused me, since red heart yarn is just about the only yarn i use, seeing as i dont really care to (or really think i should) spend a lot of money on yarn.
so now i ask the question: do you use red heart yarn?
:oops: That was me....sorry. It isn't because it is cheap that I don't use it...I just don't like it. I was being rather tongue in cheek when I said that. I do sometimes use some of the less expensive yarns and have an afghan that i love and cherish made from red heart that my grandmother made. I just prefer not to use red heart when i am knitting. if i am going to use one of the less expensive yarns it would be simply soft or something along those lines. It really is just a preference issue for me. :oops:
I like it because it can take a beating which is great because I can practice and frog on it forever....and teach friends things with it too.
I don't really use it anymore. I used to use it a lot, but I don't like it as much as some of the other nylon/synthetic blends I've seen and felt, like Patons, and Bernat. I like really soft stuff that's within my budget. And now that I knit more often and I know the difference of the feel, I really would rather not knit with Red Heart yarn. I mean, some of it is nice, like I like Light and Lofty, but I really don't like just "acrylic" labeled yarn in general.
For the most part I don't like it. It's not very soft and it doesn't feel good on my hands when knitting. That being said my stepmom crocheted me an afghan out of some new Red Heart called Red Heart Soft...and it IS! I might do charity stuff out of it, but still probably wouldn't use it for myself. There are plenty of other yarns that don't cost a lot more and are heavenly!
There's Red Heart, and then there's Red Heart... and TLC. I made a nice fuzzy sweater from Symphony. Red Heart Soft is very soft, similar to Caron's Simply Soft and Bernat Softee Chunkee. It's in between thickness to those. And I'd like to make a sweater with TLC Amore - I think it'll be nice especially in a multicolor.
I started to use Red Heart for my Christmas scarves for my pets. However I couldn't stand it. It dried out my hands. I spent more time putting lotion on my hands than knitting. I am using Bernat Berella instead. It's not as bad. When I started to knit I used the Bernat. But I try to use natural fibers as much as I can.
Yes, it's all I use. Not that I can't afford more expensive natural fibers, I just don't care to use them. Red Heart softens up when washed and creates a very durable fabric.
Honestly, I've never tried it. My first yarn purchase was from an LYS -- I felt so overwhelmed and intimidated when I went in there that I didn't do much exploring. I asked the nice lady to suggest something and ended up with a wool/acrylic blend -- it was cheap and I liked the color. I came online to look for videos because the book I was trying to learn from wasn't very good, and I found this place. I learned about KP and ordered some WOTA which I liked much better because it was softer and a lot springier, which made it much easier to work with. (I also really liked the price!)
Anyway, as I continued to read through past forum threads, I quickly learned that that Red Heart and acrylics in general, were not very popular. One "exception" that a few people mentioned was Caron Simply Soft, so I went to Joann's and bought some. Unfortunately, I didn't care for it much because it wasn't very stretchy, which made it a lot harder to knit with, in comparison to WOTA. It also felt a little weird on my hands... I can't explain it.
I've never liked wearing wools very much but I really prefer knitting with them -- lately I've been favoring superwash yarns for practicality -- and especially merinos, for obvious reasons. Cotton just doesn't do it for me -- at least I haven't found one that does. People keep talking about Plymouth Encore as a nice blend so I've been meaning to try it, but haven't gotten around to it yet.

See you !
ps : in 48h i'll contact wordpress.org if you did not answer this
Or... instead of waiting you can contact plugins [at] wordpress.org now and they can contact the author directly via email or remove the plugin.
That would be more responsible IMHO.
Mika Epstein told me that i had to contact author first ... then if no response, email p @ wp.org :| So what now ?
Email sent
In all things, I defer to Mika. She's very wise. ;)
The author is SEO Peter and his page http://vitamin.seopeter.com/vitamin-1-0-0-is-here/ has your comment as well as his reply.
Hopefully you'll get that email he mentioned in his comment reply and you can sort out the security issue with him.
Edit: And there's the reply!
Please note, that this is my first GPL released plugin here in wordpress.org. Even if there were a few testers, there may be an error or some security issues.
Any help from you guys is very ... helpful.
Any security issues will be repaired as soon as possible.
Thanks for every your reaction!
Guys, I did everything, that is written in http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/about/svn/ in Task 3: "Tagging" a new version, but there is still version 1.0.0 not 1.1.
And I updated both files, where were problems.
Is there something, how to force it?
Do not let people use the 1.0.0! It's vulnerable ...
Why can we keep old version ? In case of multiple WordPress comptibility version.
Here, the 1.0.0 have to be upgraded, not downloaded anymore.
I recommand to use "Stable Tag: trunk" in your "readme.txt" in place of 1.1
Also, i just mailed you some others flaws. See you !
Security issue (that we talked) solved in version 1.1.0
Minor security issues solved in 1.2.0.
Big thanks, Julio Potier!

Sounds Like: Donna the Buffalo, Carolina Gator Gumbo

Bio: Unknown Tongues is a Cajun-Zydeco driven band with a Carolina Twist. They've been together for 22 years, playing dances, festivals, and parties in North Carolina and beyond. They hail from the marshes of North Carolina, and sponsor the Gloucester Mardi Gras each February and the new Wild Caught L...See Full Bio
"If you go to Clifftop or Mt. Airy then you have seen or at least heard Bryan and Barbara Blake and their outrageous inappropriate kickass wailing joyous band, Unknown Tongues. Yes, they are the folks in the gypsy wagon with the huge yellow tarp covering the whole thing and the bottomless cauldron of incredible gumbo always with one more bowl at 3 AM, even if it's a cold rainy Saturday night. Yes, they enter the band contest and get on stage with an accordion and a rubboard and some fiddles and guitars and a triangle and a second accordion and maybe even a @#!drum#!?! Oh how could they, and the judges shake their poor heads or grin and the crowd just loves them, and they get their $10 back and go back to the gumbo and fun. You know who they are. So they've made this really good CD now... "

It's been illegal in the province of Ontario for the past five years, but GTA drivers still aren't getting the message.
Toronto and York Regional police are taking part in a 6-week distracted driving initiative in conjunction with CAA South Central Ontario.
The aim of the campaign is to raise awareness regarding high-risk behaviours behind the wheel, and urge you to focus on the road.
The blitz was launched near Steeles Avenue East and Don Mills Road this morning.
Plain clothes officers flagged down any drivers breaking the law while stopped at a red light.
Ontario's ban on hand-held devices has been in effect since October 2009. The law makes it is illegal for motorists to talk, text, type, dial or email using hand-held cell phones and other hand-held communication and entertainment devices. The use of hands-free devices is still permitted. Breaking that law, can result in a fine of $280.
Studies show that a driver using a cell phone is four times more likely to get into an collision than a driver focused on the road. Other studies show that dialing and texting carries the highest degree of risk of all cell phone-related activities, with motorists who text being 23 times more likely to have a collision. Teens and adults under 35 are the most frequent users of cell phones while driving.

text: I just migrated my blog into a multisite network. I managed to get mostly everything working, except for post thumbnails. They seem to be unattached, and I can't figure out which DB record does this. When I go to "Set featured image" screen, I see all the images there and I can set the featured image, but I don't want to do this manually for each post obviously. The postmeta table is the same as on the old website. They both use the same domain name, so the image paths are still valid.
