I love this product. It has a wonderful glide and doesn't stain my sheets. Unlike other oils and creams where after four months I'd have to toss my sheets. Now, they are still oil free even after a year of use.
I love this organic coconut oil. So luxurious feeling on the skin and so moisturizing.
As always fantastic
I love it. My customers love it. Enough said
I've been using coconut oil for massage for a couple of years now. I love that it is it is naturally water dispersable (which is of MAJOR importance for me)and it is so healthy for the skin. I usually purchase the organic refined (which makes it unscented) from the health-food stores, so when I saw this I thought I'd give it a try. I love that it remains liquid at room temperature. It feels just a little bit lighter than the coconut oil I'm used to using, but after I adjusted to that, it was all good. If you want an oil that has nourishes your clients' skin, does not stain or leave unpleasant lingering odors in your sheets, and is light, but does not require constant reapplication... go for it!

Former Rep. Kathleen C. Hochul is joining M&T Bank as vice president of government relations. She says her new job is all about what her old one was: bringing jobs to Western New York.
Hochul, who lost her House re-election bid in November in a close race against former Erie County Executive Chris Collins, will represent M&T in building relationships with local, state and federal officials, the bank said Wednesday. She will work out of M&T's headquarters in downtown Buffalo.
"M&T has been a large presence in our community. It is a leader in helping small businesses to have opportunities to expand and grow, and this is really a continuation of my efforts as a member of Congress," Hochul said. "It's really a perfect fit for me."
Federal law will bar Hochul from lobbying her former congressional colleagues for two years, but she will be free to reach out to other officials on the bank's behalf.
Nevertheless, she said she did not see her new post as primarily a lobbying job.
"This is being part of a team that is absolutely immersed in the fabric of Western New York and upstate New York, and I will be involved in whatever levels they need me to be," Hochul said. "It's not limited in speaking to people in government. It's also carrying on their mission with community organizations and community leaders as well."
Hochul said that M&T Chairman Robert G. Wilmers approached her in December about joining the bank and that she decided to do so after completing her work in Congress and a vacation with her husband, U.S. Attorney William J. Hochul Jr.
"The reputation of the bank is just so stellar," she said. "It's a much larger presence in Washington, Baltimore, the whole East Coast than I think many people in Western New York realize. There wasn't a person I spoke to in Washington that wasn't familiar with their reputation and their small-business lending."
Hochul, a Democrat, represented New York's 26th Congressional District in the House for most of the past two years after winning a special election that followed the resignation of Rep. Chris Lee, R-Amherst. Previously, she served as Erie County Clerk from 2007 to 2011.
"Kathy brings a broad range of government knowledge and experience to M&T Bank," said M&T Bank President Mark J. Czarnecki. "As a company employing more than 15,000 people and as the nation's sixth largest U.S. Small Business Administration lender, it's important for M&T Bank to maintain continuing dialogue with our local, state and federal government leaders to help them understand our vital role in creating jobs and economic growth in communities we serve."
Hochul agreed, noting that M&T's work will be important to the revitalization of the Buffalo area.
"They're very much linked to the destiny of Western New York," she said. "Their efforts in supporting the redevelopment of Buffalo and Western New York are critical."

George W. Bush's Legacy and Jeb's Net Negatives
In examining public polling today, many of the trends we see are still in reaction to the administration of George W. Bush.
In its approach to international affairs, the Obama administration has had to focus on managing two wars that were started during the Bush administration—and, in evaluating the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, Americans believe both not to have been worth it.
In Think Tank last week, Brian Katulis argued for "a restatement of America's purpose in the world." But given what the nation has gone through, there is little appetite for this focus, much less greater involvement. The latest Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll found that by a 47% to 19% margin Americans want the U.S. to be less rather than more active in foreign affairs.
Q. In your view, should the United States become more active in world affairs, less active in world affairs, or continue its current level of activity in world affairs?
The Bush presidency also was very damaging for the Republican Party brand, and this damage to the GOP is seen in party identification. In 2001, the year that George W. Bush took office, Americans were more likely to identify as Democrats than Republicans by four percentage points, according to the Pew Research Center. Pollster.com's average for 2014 reveals an eight-point advantage for Democrats.
So, as Jeb Bush mulls a 2016 presidential run, he should be mindful that, like the Republican Party, he currently has a net negative rating: 21% positive rating, 31% negative. In addition to his legacy as a successful two-term governor of Florida and his work on education and the state's economy, he would be wise to consider these numbers and his brother's legacy.
Jeff Horwitt is a vice president at Hart Research Associates and is part of the polling team for the WSJ/NBC News Poll.

While there are no questions about the lineup in the broadcast booth for the Pittsburgh Pirates this season, spring training still matters for the on-air team.
Greg Brown, about to begin his 20th season with the Pirates, anticipates games in Florida as a chance to get into a rhythm, learn about the team on the field and try out some new techniques.
He treats spring training in much the same way as the players.
"Just like them, we'll probably be ready to go and get playing regular-season games after a couple of weeks, too," Brown said. "Still, it's an exciting time, and it's important because we re-establish our cadence and the pace to what we do."
After the offseason, Brown appreciates the opportunity that 31 games on radio and five on TV provide this spring.
He and his broadcast partners - play-by-play man Tim Neverett and analysts Steve Blass, Bob Walk and John Wehner - have plenty of time to organize their efforts.
In particular, Brown is trying out a different scorecard.
It's an essential and sometimes quite personal resource for a broadcaster. For Brown, this season's edition has the diagram of the field on the left side instead of the right.
Also, he likes a larger scorecard with more white space, which allows him to jot down notes.
Along with Brown, Walk also starts his 20th season with the team in 2013.
Wehner has been working Pirates games for nine seasons and Neverett five. Blass, the former pitcher and World Series champ, has been with the Pirates for 54 years.
Still, the self-effacing Brown has emerged as the voice of the team in many ways.
That means some extra official duties, but he's not one who lords that position over anyone, especially listeners.
"I'm proud to have been here for 20 years, but we all bring our personalities to the broadcasts," Brown said. "We're all in it together. People do not want to hear you being miserable on the air, so we just work to make it fun and interesting."
Tuner tidbits
n One of Brown's early on-field observations has been the willingness of catcher Russell Martin to throw down to first base behind a runner, something the team's catchers have not done with any regularity in recent seasons. "While you have to overlook meaningless things in spring, guys who put up big numbers who you know will not be a factor, things like that do offer some context," Brown said.
n Fans used to finding auto racing on Speed Channel or other sports-related activities on Fuel will find those outlets rebranded as Fox Sports 1 and Fox Sports 2 in the near future.
n Fans of former ESPN standout Michelle Beadle might be missing her since she moved to NBC Sports. Smart and talented, she's more girl-next-door than typical TV sports eye candy. Unfortunately for her, even when she's on TV many people are missing her these days. The show she co-hosts on NBC Sports Network, "The Crossover," sometimes draws fewer than 20,000 viewers.

A group of Nippenose Township residents made it clear Tuesday night that they want relief from what they said are unbearable odors and unliveable conditions while animal waste is being spread in nearby farmlands.
Carol Kline, of Antes Fort, spoke during a township supervisors meeting on behalf of several people belonging to the so-called "Concerned Citizens Group of Antes Fort."
She called on the supervisors to put a halt to the practice of spreading animal waste used as fertilizer on township fields, citing the associated stench, flies, potential health hazards and threats to residents' wells.
Kline blamed supervisors and the state Department of Environmental Protection for failing to enforce existing laws that would help citizens who are dealing with the issue that they say is caused by Brett Bowes, of 305 Nippenose Road, who spreads the liquefied animal waste on farmland operated by William R. Camerer.
"We feel our community has been a residual food waste dump," she said.
Bowes is allowed to spread up to 21 million gallons of animal waste that comes from Nicholas Meat Packing, 508 E. Valley Road, Loganton, according to a nutrient management plan approved by DEP and the Lycoming County Conservation District.
Corey Grove, a nutrient management commercial planner with Team Ag, of Ephrata, said the slaughterhouse byproduct is organically better than manure spread on farmers' fields.
"I know there's a lot of misinformation out there," Grove said, who added that he was present at the supervisors' meeting to try to dispel myths and rumors.
Team Ag was hired by Bowes to fill out paperwork and help develop what Grove said was a nutrient balance sheet, which is used by DEP and the conservation district.
He said the waste is comprised of blood, manure and wash water that contains biodegradable sanitizers. The product helps plant growth and adds to soil health.
Grove said Bowes has spread the material both on top of the soil and by injection.
He did say that a violation did occur in early April because Bowes did not spread on the proper area. That's when residents said they saw the waste enter a nearby stream.
"It did not reach the river," Grove said, adding that the incident quickly was mitigated.
DEP did issue a violation letter regarding the incident, but Grove said "it has been taken care of."
At the meeting, Bowes said he did not have to pay a fine for the incident, but instead was issued field maps to assist him in spreading in the correct areas.
One citizen, however, said he witnessed the waste being disbursed from a stationary point for about 20 minutes, which caused pooling.
"This application (of waste) has been incessant," said Steve Muthler.
Kline said that four area families have had their wells contaminated by the process and that a child at one family is experiencing health problems as a result of the spreading.
"You won't laugh when you're sick," she said as she motioned to several of Bowes' relatives at the back of the Antes Fort Volunteer Fire Co. social hall, where the meeting took place.
Residents also were upset that a 2.4 million gallon storage tank was built on Camerer's land to hold stockpiles of the waste without the need for a permit.
"Even to put a railing outside your porch requires a permit," said Kline.
At one point, Supervisor Charles Bastian asked Kline to stop talking.
"You people say the same thing," he said. "These farmers are allowed to farm the field, and the state says they can do it. They do not allow us to control agriculture."
One man, who asked not to be identified, told supervisors to enforce zoning ordinances already on the books.
"I don't know a zoning ordinance against stink," Bastian replied.

Texting while driving is one of the most dangerous activities on the road, as dangerous as driving drunk. But that hasn't stopped its growing use by irresponsible motorists.
That's why a growing number of states have joined in banning texting behind the wheel.
At last count, 41 states have done so. Unfortunately, South Carolina isn't among them, thanks to legislators who are somehow convinced that a ban would be an intrusion into the personal freedom of motorists.
Fortunately, there is a growing acknowledgement at the local level that something needs to be done.
Mount Pleasant Town Council last week gave preliminary approval to a texting-while-driving ban.
And next week, both Charleston City and Charleston County councils are expected to consider similar bans.
It's an opportunity to save lives — one that council members shouldn't squander.
The city's Traffic and Transportation Committee on Wednesday will consider Mayor Joe Riley's proposal for a legal ban on texting while driving.
Charleston County Council on Thursday will take another stab at a texting-while-driving ban to make roads safer in unincorporated areas.
In April, County Council's Finance Committee rejected a texting ban. But Councilman Joe Qualey thinks heightened public awareness justifies its reconsideration. He is hopeful his colleagues will agree now that they've seen similar bans pass elsewhere, including Beaufort County and the cities of Beaufort, Columbia and Sumter.
There are numerous other reasons to ban texting:
■ Researchers at the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute found that texting makes a driver at least 20 times more likely to have an accident or near-accident.
■ Distracted or inattentive driving this year has played a role in 23 fatal collisions, according to S.C. Department of Public Safety data. There have been 1,836 collisions that involved injury, 4,621 collisions that involved property damage and 6,480 total collisions.
■ A report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that drivers who are distracted by mobile communication devices cause as much danger to public health as drunken motorists, speeders and those who do not use seat belts. And texting is the most dangerous of the distracting activities involving cell phone use.
If members of Charleston City Council and Charleston County Council aren't convinced, they should try sending a text message and then imagine sending one while driving in traffic.
Or they should have a conversation with a parent whose child has been hurt or killed in an accident where texting was involved.
While they're at it, they might invite council members from North Charleston, Folly Beach, James Island, the Isle of Palms, Sullivan's Island, Kiawah and Seabrook to join them.
It's time for local jurisdictions to pick up the General Assembly's slack — to ban what everyone knows is a significant danger to drivers, their passengers and the motorists and pedestrians around them.

City Council and the city Planning Commission will hold a joint public hearing at 7 p.m. Tuesday in city hall council chambers regarding two rezoning requests related to land for a proposed apartment complex on the city's east end.
The first request was made by the NRP Group of Cleveland to rezone 6.9 acres of land just south of the East Pershing Street extension to Butcher Road, from C-2 General Commercial to RA Multiple Family,
The second request came out of two meetings of the city Planning Commission whose members want to create a buffer between existing homes on the deadend streets of Oak, Tanglewood, Kennedy and Edgewood and the property NRP has an option to purchase.
The Planning Commission studied and agreed to recommend rezoning 14.3 acres of land 400 feet east of the end of Oak, Tanglewood, Kennedy and Edgewood from RA Multiple Family to RS-2 Single Family Residential.
NRP is looking at buying a 67.7-acre tract located south of East Pershing Street, southwest of Butcher Road and west of Cunningham Road, extending south to the city corporation line. The property is split-zoned, with 60.8 acres currently zoned RA Multiple Family and 6.9 acres currently zoned C-2 General Commercial (the strip NRP wants rezoned to RA Multiple Family).
NRP submitted preliminary plans for a three-phase housing development of apartments and single-family dwellings on the vacant land, with Phase I to be located closest to the corner area south of Pershing Street and southwest of Butcher Road. Phase I consists of a 120-unit walk-up apartment complex, estimated as an $18 million investment by the company.
Later phases include Phase II consisting of 176 walk-up apartments located at the corner of Butcher Road and Cunningham Road and Phase III consisting of 50 single family lots, west of Cunningham Road and southwest of Butcher Road extending south to the corporation line.
NRP representatives said during previous meetings that there is no plan to build in a wetlands which will act as a natural buffer between the development and the neighborhood of single-family homes on Oak, Kennedy, Tanglewood and Edgewood. Both rezoning requests will be contingent upon construction of Phase I within two years.
Comments will be taken regarding both rezoning requests.

Dear Abby: I am an adjunct teacher in a small college in the Midwest. For the most part, my students are great, but one breaks my heart. I admire him because he has overcome some incredible obstacles. Last year, he lost a good job and had to drop out for a time. He's back now, and when I asked about his new job, he said he runs a strip club.
At first, I thought he was kidding, but he assured me he manages more than 50 ladies who, at the end of their shift, leave with their lives and their dignity. He doesn't strike me as a common street pimp and I realize he took this job to survive. I'd like to approach him outside the classroom and offer to help not just him, but his employees. I don't want to come across as a do-gooder, but I don't think this is a great career.
I know this letter may make for some funny water cooler conversations, but the truth is people who get sucked into the vice trade have a hard time getting out and often come to a bad end. Do I care about my students too much, or am I being judgmental?
– Wants to Help in Illinois
Dear Wants: I think it's a little of both. You are well-meaning but may have jumped to some incorrect conclusions. Managers of adult entertainment clubs are not "pimps"; they are club managers. Further, just as not all prostitutes are exotic dancers, not all exotic dancers are prostitutes. Many are single women working to support themselves and their children; others may be students trying to pay for their educations.
Before trying to "rescue" any of them, visit the club and see firsthand what is – and is NOT – going on there. If there are underage girls being forced to work there, report it to the police. If not, recognize that they are adults and able to make their own career choices. While I admire your good heart, the individuals you're worried about may not need your assistance.
Dream wedding
Dear Abby: My husband and I have been married 10 years. We didn't have a wedding. Instead, we went to the courthouse – just the two of us with a couple of witnesses – and had a small reception a few months later.
Having been a part of some very nice weddings recently, I mentioned to my husband that I wished we would have done something more special for our wedding. Now he wants to renew our vows with a huge wedding ceremony. Would it be appropriate to have a big ceremony now?
– Wondering in Iowa
Dear Wondering: I think it's a wonderful idea. Ten years of wedded bliss is something to celebrate, and I see no reason why you shouldn't do it with the ceremony of your dreams. Other couples have done it, and so can you.

CRYSTAL BAY, Nev. - Local favorites the Saddle Tramps return to the Red Room on Friday, Dec. 14.
Big John and Scotty formed the Saddle Tramps in 1999. They started out as a comedy duo playing in places like the Improv doing shortened versions of some of their original songs and interjecting with standup improv comedy. The band then got it's first gigs as a band and added a drummer and eventually by 2000 the gun-slinging go-go dancer Suzy Switchblade.
From day one the Saddle Tramps played relentlessly in and around Reno as well as on the road to support their first three CDs. Their rigorous show schedule and work ethic got them signed to L.A. based Split Seven Records through the recommendations of friends and former label mates Speedbuggy and Hellbound Hayride. The Saddle Tramps released a full length live CD and a compilation through Split Seven and then moved on to record their latest CD under their own label Von Roller Records.
In the last 10 years the band has toured every state from Texas westward and has played some legendary rooms and stages to include The Derby in Hollywood, The Continental Club in Austin, Texas, The Tractor Tavern in Seattle, Washington, The Bahia Resort in San Diego, The Tropicana Hotel in Las Vegas as well as set attendance records in the old Golden Phoenix and the Reno Hilton locally. The band has played such feature shows such as Entertainment Tonight's 20th Anniversary Party in Hollywood, Dennis Hof's Birthday party at The Moonlight Bunny Ranch, The National Tattoo Convention (twice and for the third time this spring), The Blessing of The Cars and The APP Piercing Convention at The Tropicana in Las Vegas.

Quince 'Vranja' (patio)
Cydonia oblonga
An attractive tree with beautiful rounded silver leaves and pretty green-pink flowers in spring. The large, fragrant, pear shaped fruits that follow ripen to a lovely shade of yellow, and can be harvested from October. Freshly picked quinces are bitter and inedible, but once cooked they soften to make excellent jams and jellies, and enhance the flavour of apple pies when a few slices are added before cooking.

Tuesday, June 18, 2013
It is the year 2113, 100 years from now. Looking forward from today, we ask ourselves: Will they be able to read a flash drive or a CD Rom? We contemplate the fact that even after 20-ish years, the audio CD is already on its way out. The cutting edge technology of cassette tapes is practically buried in the past and CDs are surely not far behind. We decide not to use any digital technology.
So on what should we store our parish photos for the 10th Anniversary time capsule? How shall we publish letters and lists to those who will follow after us at Holy Ascension Orthodox Church 100 years hence? Well — the "old-fashioned way" — archival photos on cotton paper made with long-lasting ink.
We built our church building super-engineered, to last like the cathedrals in Spain, France and England — with 16-inch solid concrete walls and an 18-inch universal slab foundation. In the 4th century lenten service we serve six weeks before Easter, we ask God, "preserve this holy house until the end of the world."
Among other holy items, an antique bronze cross, from our first meetings as a church in a storefront. Palms from this year's Palm Sunday Service. A list of all those who have been baptized and received in our church in the last decade. Some print documents about the original plans for construction of Holy Ascension. An archival parish photo. Letters and school photos from three parish children. Signatures of everyone who attended the blessing of the time-capsule including a new friend from Bulgaria and a visitor from Summerville. And the day's Moultrie News and Post and Courier.
In my letter for the time capsule, I memorialized some oral history: There is a fragment of the Berlin Wall in the foundation of our church — William Hamilton, our neighbor, put it there as a fitting way to sanctify a stone which previously had divided a world. And I told the future's parishioners about the handwriting on the foundation which they would find if they ventured under the altar in the crawl space — we wrote there while the concrete was still wet. How would they otherwise know? All this in the time capsule. And yet wonder regarding the contents, and if they will last, and what life will be like then was only part of the process — the part I could anticipate. Unexpected was the contemplation of my own limited sojourn on this earth. I will not be around to open this capsule. Nor will my high-school aged children. I calculated, using 25 years as the average age of having a child, it will be my son's great-great-grandchildren, when they are 20 years old, who will be opening the capsule. Often times I have wondered about my progeny dealing with the federal debt with which they will be saddled. But honestly, however real, that is still a rather nebulous idea. It is a very specific one to contemplate putting a gift in a tube for a great-great grandchild to find. That it will be the children of the children of the children of today's children in my parish who will open the capsule. If I myself live to 100, I will have been buried already 40 years. (How wild is it even to use the future-perfect tense — "I will have been buried"…)
Walking through the church last week thinking on these things, everything in the building looked different. This church is not just for me, for us, now, but for them: for children's children's children. Of course, I have known this in my mind, but it somehow dropped into my heart with the preparation of a time capsule. I wanted to go open a wall somewhere and hide something — something else that might be uncovered in a future renovation. Instead, I was also moved to prayer.
I thanked God for all the parishioners, by name, who have been a part of Holy Ascension since its founding. I thanked God for the friends and benefactors of this holy house. For our I'On neighbors. We know their names. And I thanked God for those known to Him alone, who will be here to carry on our tradition in a century. And I thanked God for the privilege of the mindfulness of my own death, which is an opportunity to live life fully now.
Capsule blessing
O Creator and Fashioner of the human race, Giver of spiritual grace and Bestower of eternal salvation: Do Thou Thyself, O Lord, send down Thy Holy Spirit with a blessing from on high upon THIS TIME CAPSULE, that armed with the power of heavenly assistance it may be perfectly preserved and of benefit to those who shall open it and enjoy its contents a century hence. Between now and then, guard and protect us and our children and our children's children. Grant us all to remain faithful to you.
As you have blessed us, so bless those who shall receive this gift. As you have fruitfully increased our parish, continue this good work in them. As you have preserved us, so preserve them in faithfulness. For you are the giver of every good gift, the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last, and to Thee we ascribe glory: Father, Son and Holy Spirit, now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.

on January 23, 2013 - 11:29 AM
An 87-year-old man accused of using a 2½-pound magnet to pummel his roommate at an assisted living facility was charged Wednesday with first-degree manslaughter.
Clad in orange jail garb, Chester Rusek appeared in court in a wheelchair. He pleaded not guilty.
He held his hand to his left ear and scratched it as he sat, hunched forward, in the wheelchair during much of the 10-minute arraignment. Rusek wore sandals and no socks.
Rusek seemed confused when State Supreme Court Justice Christopher J. Burns informed him that he had a right to be at every hearing and then asked him to sign a document confirming that he was so instructed.
"I'm hard of hearing," Rusek replied.
"I've got to say something," Rusek added, before defense attorney Barry Dolgoff told him to whisper what he wanted to say to him.
"I can't read this. I don't have my glasses," Rusek told Dolgoff in a voice loud enough to be heard in the courtroom.
Dolgoff read the statement to him, and then Rusek signed the paper.
Burns granted Dolgoff's request for 45 days to file motions. "It's a very sad case," Dolgoff said after the arraignment.
A grand jury indicted Rusek on the manslaughter charge, prosecutor Paul E. Bonanno said.
Police said Rusek repeatedly beat his 86-year-old roommate, Salvatore Trusello, with the magnet Nov. 26 as Trusello lay in his bed in Kenwell-DePaul Senior Living Community on Delaware Avenue in the Town of Tonawanda.
"That assault by the defendant on his roommate, Salvatore Trusello, led to Mr. Trusello's death one month later," Bonanno said during the proceeding.
The prosecution's evidence includes a two-page statement from Rusek and a DVD of his interview by detectives, Bonanno said.
Trusello suffered a broken rib, a punctured lung and damage to his kidneys in the attack, police have said. The blows struck Trusello on his head, face, chest and wrist.
Trusello spent the next month in the intensive care unit at Erie County Medical Center, where he died Dec. 27, according to the Erie County District Attorney's Office.
In the meantime, Rusek has been in the Erie County Holding Center.
Trusello and Rusek had shared a room for less than two months when the incident took place. Rusek allegedly beat Trusello because he apparently believed his roommate was stealing from him.
After the attack, Rusek used his walker to go down the hall and tell an attendant to get help.
"He's going to need medical attention," Rusek told the attendant, according to police reports. "I just beat his [expletive]."
"I didn't want to kill him," Rusek later told police. "I just wanted to get even."
Dolgoff said he expects the case to go to trial. "Let jurors decide," he said.
If convicted, Rusek faces a maximum prison sentence of 25 years.
"Any sentence for this gentleman would be a death sentence," Dolgoff said.
Dolgoff said he is concerned about how the stress of the criminal case will affect Rusek.
"It's stressful on anybody, no matter how old they are," he said.
Asked if he planned any steps to determine if Rusek was able to help with his own defense, Dolgoff replied: "We're exploring every avenue we can at this point."
Dolgoff declined to discuss Rusek's background but said Rusek did not have any prior criminal convictions.
"You don't want this to be the final epitaph written on his tombstone," Dolgoff said.

"I am so proud of Reggie and the Saints!" an overjoyed Kardashian tells PEOPLE. "New Orleans deserves this – it's such a huge accomplishment!"
Kardashian made the Miami trip a family affair, bringing along mom Kris Jenner and brother Robert. The group dined with Bush and his family at Prime 112 Friday night.
The Saints' stunning 31-17 win over the Indianapolis Colts was the perfect ending to a long road that Kardashian witnessed firsthand. "Reggie has waited his whole life for this moment. It came and they conquered."
So how does Kardashian sum up the day? "It was a really good win!"

LISBON - A statement made by County Treasurer Nick Barborak during a recent candidates night event in the county is false, according to his opponent, Craig Newbold.
In a press conference Friday afternoon, Newbold said that Barborak should retract his statement that the state was not facing an $8 million deficit at the close of Gov. Ted Strickland's term.
"Either Mr. Barborak is naively misinformed or he is purposefully attempting to mislead the public ... When I took office in 2011 the deficit was at $8 billion, 18 percent of the state's $53 billion two-year budget. This is fact, Mr. Barborak," Newbold said.
Newbold is a Republican running for a second term as state representative in the first district. Barborak, a Democrat, is also running for the seat.
He said Barborak should "come clean" with the citizens of the county and publicly retract the statement or face charges with the Ohio Elections Commission.
During the conference, he alluded to news articles dating back two years prior to the budget crisis that showed the state was anticipating a budget shortfall that would exceed $7 billion.
In December of 2008, the Columbus Dispatch reported Gov. Strickland announced the state was facing a $7.3 billion shortfall for the next two-year budget.
The Cleveland Plain Dealer reported in September of 2010 that Strickland and then candidate-for-governor Republican John Kasich engaged in a debate that included how they would address the $8 billion budget hole.
Newbold said the federal stimulus funding awarded during Strickland's term to address the projected shortfall was mostly spent on programs and used up within a short matter of time.
"When the Democrats controlled the Ohio House of Representatives they used billions of dollars of 'one time money' to pay for years of ongoing, recurring expenses. They cut state spending for schools, funding for Ohio's public libraries, and took 'one time' stimulus funding as if this would be a long term fix on what was clearly a huge, looming structural deficit," he said.
A financial report prepared by the state office of budget and management and provided by Newbold during the conference showed the state received a total of $4.1 billion in federal stimulus and $8.8 billion in one-time money for the two years.
He argued the funding should have been set aside in a separate fund and not used for general budget purposes.
When contacted Friday, Barborak stood by his statement that the shortfall, largely based on projections, was not as big as anticipated and pointed out that spending in the general fund budget has increased "drastically" since Strickland's term ended.
"The final budget under Gov. Strickland was approximately $51.5 billion. The current budget, under this current legislation is $56.5 billion ... Historically, that amounts to the second largest year to year spending in the state of Ohio," he said.
"If he was so interested in making cuts, explain why he increased spending by $5 billion," he said of Newbold.
He also said the cuts that were enacted by the state legislature "targeted" communities and schools and in effect "strangled off the ability" of those communities to attract new jobs.
During the conference Newbold also targeted an instance in which Barborak, the current county treasurer, was cited in a state audit conducted in 2008.
"Maybe if Mr. Barborak had been following state law, he would have known early on that the county was facing a $1.2 million investment shortfall for that year?" he said.
The citation was that Barborak did not conduct the required meetings of the Investment Advisory Committee which, according to state law, he must chair.
According to the audit, the committee met only once in 2008, despite the state law requiring meetings every quarter.
Barborak said the matter has already been "hashed out" in the paper, and that he had previously admitted it was an "oversight."
"I explained at the time that it was an oversight. I took responsibility for it. We have been audited every year since then with no problems," he said.
Newbold said Barborak put the county in an "awkward position" by not meeting as required and therefore not knowing sooner the county was facing the million-dollar shortfall.
He said he didn't appreciate the treasurer "accusing" him of being "fiscally irresponsible."

Longtime Durango resident Margaret G. Holt died Monday, Oct. 1, 2012, at Sunshine Gardens West. She was 97.
Mrs. Holt was born to Clarence Allen and Myrtle Frances (Gilmer) Guinn on Sept. 3, 1915, in Childress County, Texas. Her ancestors were from pioneer Texas families. Mrs. Holt grew up on what had been part of the XIT Ranch, once the largest fenced spread in the world, her family said.
�She especially enjoyed recalling stories of her parents� generosity to friends and neighbors during the Depression years, and vividly remembered the first Dust Bowl storm that blew across their farm when she was a girl,� her family said.
Mrs. Holt attended schools in Friona, Texas, graduating from high school in 1933. During the Great Depression, she couldn�t afford to attend college, but she saved to attend beauty school in Amarillo, Texas.
After graduation, she managed a beauty shop in Muleshoe, Texas, where she met Arthur W. (�Bits�) Holt. The couple married Dec. 11, 1937, in Muleshoe.
The Holts and their three young daughters moved to Durango in 1947, when Mr. Holt and his brother Gale Holt purchased the Highland Motel and Service Station.
Mrs. Holt was an �elegant, gracious and multitalented woman,� her family said. She was an expert seamstress who added designer touches to the clothes she made.
An excellent and creative cook, Mrs. Holt once designed a birthday cake to look like an open diary for her daughter Ann Gross.
�In beautiful icing script she wrote, �Dear Diary, Today I am eleven years old,� her family said.
Mrs. Holt was a perennial room mother at her daughters� schools and taught Sunday school classes at First Baptist Church of Durango. She was a member of the Durango Sewing Club, later �The Club,� that spanned six decades, and she was an active member and president of PEO Chapter BR.
After Mr. Holt�s retirement in 1975, the couple moved to Brownwood, Texas, and then to Farmington before returning to Durango in 1995.
Mrs. Holt was preceded in death by her husband of 67 years, Arthur W. Holt.
She is survived by her daughters Kay Baker and Susan Reese, both of Durango, and Ann Gross of Camino, Calif.; six grandsons; five great-grandchildren; and numerous nieces and nephews.
A memorial service will be held at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be sent to Hospice of Mercy, 1 Mercado St., Suite 270, Durango, CO 81301.

Tuesday was a somber day for the Seneca East School District.
Three students were reportedly killed in a large house fire in the early morning.
Sixth-grader Olivia Bondy, second-grader Jaxson Hamilton and kindergartener Linkin Hamilton were very special kids, said Brad Powers, Seneca East Elementary principal.
"They all three always had smiles on their faces, were polite, respectful and appreciative," he said.
The school received reports of the fire in the morning. Updates were given throughout the day from Dean Henry, public information officer for Seneca County.
"We prayed and prayed more, but we knew that something terrible had happened," Powers said.
The information was limited with what could be released at the time, Powers said.
Guidance counselor Heather Schalk was available throughout the day for students and staff.
A letter was sent home with students to inform parents of the tragedy.
Additional counseling services were to be available today in the Seneca East library. Six counselors and members of the clergy were to be available to assist students, staff and parents.
"We will continue to pray and continue to be here for our kids," Powers said.
"This is a great community with great parents, students and staff. We will give our kids compassion, caring and help in dealing with this tragedy from tomorrow and beyond," he said. "The three children were great kids and will be sorely missed."

BULL'S ISLAND, DELAWARE TOWNSHIP, N.J. - This idyllic, verdant swath in the Delaware River north of Stockton offers a beloved recreation area, bird sanctuary, and a longtime campsite. According to one eminent ecologist, it's "the most ecologically significant of any of the Delaware River islands."
Now, the nature preserve has become a significant battleground between environmental groups and the state Department of Environmental Protection.
In June 2011, a giant sycamore fell, killed camper William Arias, and seriously injured his wife. A tragedy. Arias' two children and a cousin were physically unharmed.
The New Jersey DEP responded immediately, closing the campsite, removing picnic tables, and prohibiting access to the north side of the 24-acre nature preserve. The DEP also began bulldozing parts of the area, pushing debris into the river, which supplies 100 million gallons daily of drinking water to Jersey customers.

As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
Developers of DTC Genetic Testing Are...
NSCLC is "Major Battlefield" as Merck,...
Currently, there are only eight small molecule kinase inhibitors approved and on the market; however, researchers have approximately 500 kinase inhibitors working their way through discovery and preclinical phases, thus making protein kinase inhibitors a force to be reckoned with. "Speed, cost, accuracy, and quantitation will determine success in this space," observes Michael Crouch, Ph.D., CSO at TGR Biosciences.
Protein kinases play a major role in multiple cellular processes and are thus important drug targets, explains Said Goueli, research fellow and technological development team leader at Promega.
"The successful introduction in the last ten years of several kinase inhibitors as drugs for treatment of cancer, metabolic diseases, and autoimmune diseases, for example, is driving research forward."
Interest in protein kinases is burgeoning, and the upcoming "Protein Kinases in Drug Discovery" meeting will enable researchers to discuss technological advances, as well as some of their product-development successes.
TGR Biosciences started out developing molecules and looking for new receptor modulators, notes Dr. Crouch. "We needed readout of cell-based activity, and there was nothing on the market that did that, so we developed technology to measure changes in cell behavior as well as protein phosphorylation of cells."
Techniques for measurement of kinase activity in cell-based assays in high throughput, which allows a more physiological view of test compound action on signal transduction pathways when testing large compound libraries, is a recent development and one that has taken the research community some time to get used to, observes Dr. Crouch.
"We needed to convince people that this was advantageous; once you measure phosphorylation in cells, you can look at cell behavior. This is a capability they could really exploit."
TGR's SureFire allows the analysis of cellular kinase activity in both cell lines and primary cells, including growth arrested cells, since no cellular transfection is required. Dr. Crouch notes that the assays, which use PerkinElmer's AlphaScreen® technology, are homogeneous, and the lack of assay washing steps means the whole assay procedure can be automated with liquid handlers, providing for large sample throughput.
"Assays for over 40 distinct targets are now available and cover most of the major cellular signal-transduction pathways," he adds. "Thus, the same lab infrastructure can address compound specificity, as well as pathway point of action."
Because of the small amount of cellular extract that is used per assay point, Dr. Crouch explains that multiple replicates of a cell lysate can be analyzed using AlphaScreen SureFire for different targets, with the versatility of the user defining which proteins are to be tested. This allows for signal pathway profiling in a single experiment, and up to 20 different analytes can be quantitated at one time. Speed and accessibility in the lab are two key drivers.
There is much work to be done, not only in developing screening for the next generation of kinase inhibitors, but also in demonstrating their selectivity across the kinome. "Technology needs to be universal, HTS-formatted, sensitive, and robust," says Dr. Goueli.
"Universal platforms are highly desirable so kinase profiling can be applied to the various kinases across the kinome regardless of their substrate. These include serine threonine kinases, protein tyrosine kinases, lipid kinases, sphingosine kinases, and they are not limited to a subset of kinases."
Promega's ADP-Glo™ Kinase Assay is a luminescent ADP detection assay that provides a universal, homogeneous, high-throughput screening method to measure kinase activity by quantifying the amount of ADP produced during a kinase reaction.
It can be used to monitor the activity of virtually any ADP-generating enzyme, using up to 1mM ATP, Dr. Goueli says. The company addresses the issue of enzyme quality by providing ADP Glo in a format that includes the kinase, substrate, and buffer in one system—a complete solution to assure that the assay and substrate are performing according to expectations. "You will then be able to do, not only kinase screening, but also kinase profiling based on inhibitor selectivity."
The ADP-Glo Kinase Assay is performed in a multiwell plate and can detect kinase activity in a reaction volume as low as 5 µL. The assay is performed in two steps—first, after the kinase reaction is completed, an equal volume of ADP-Glo reagent is added to terminate the kinase reaction and deplete the remaining ATP. The kinase detection reagent is then added to simultaneously convert ADP to ATP and allow the newly synthesized ATP to be measured using a luciferase/luciferin reaction.
The light generated is measured using a luminometer. Luminescence can be correlated to ADP concentrations by using an ATP-to-ADP conversion curve.

HSBC Bank USA is laying off about 60 workers in downtown Buffalo following a reorganization last week, with some positions transferred to third-party vendors that employees can apply to for jobs.
The U.S. subsidiary of London-based HSBC Holdings Plc, which sold its entire upstate New York branch network in May, said the affected jobs are mostly in its mailroom, marketing and money center areas, and most were in the One HSBC Center tower that used to be its headquarters. The money center physically handles cash for the bank, including stocking ATMs that the bank no longer has in the region.
Employees received notice of the job cuts, with varying termination dates, but they are being encouraged to apply for about 100 HSBC openings in Buffalo in commercial banking, mortgage underwriting, information management and call-center operations, said spokeswoman Juanita Gutierrez. She would not elaborate on the reasons for the cuts, or identify the third-party vendors that are taking on some positions.
"We regularly review our staffing needs to ensure they are aligned with needs of the business," she said.
HSBC employs about 3,000 in the Buffalo area, mostly in the downtown tower and the nearby HSBC Atrium, as well as in its mortgage servicing facility in Depew.
HSBC, formerly Buffalo-based Marine Midland Bank before it was acquired by HSBC 25 years ago, has been reducing its U.S. operations as part of a global restructuring designed to cut up to $3.5 billion in expenses, get out of less profitable businesses and regions, and cut the bank's staff by 30,000 over three years.
Launched in 2011, the restructuring led to the sale of 195 branches in upstate New York and southwestern Connecticut, with $15 billion in deposits, as well as the related retail and small-business banking operations, to First Niagara Financial Group. First Niagara then sold 64 branches to KeyCorp, Community Bank System and Financial Institutions, and closed 35 overlapping branches, for a net gain of about 100 offices.
HSBC also sold its U.S. credit card business to Capital One Financial Corp., and is transferring its mortgage business to PHH Corp., including a big part of its Depew operation. It's also expected to announce plans to move out of the HSBC tower when its lease expires in October 2013.
