Two of Western New York's congressional representatives hurtled toward re-election Tuesday night, while a third, Rep. Thomas W. Reed II of Corning, squeaked through a stiff challenge from a Democratic upstart.
California-born Democrat Nate Shinagawa of Tompkins County had 47.9 percent of the vote in the sprawling 23rd Congressional District, which covers 11 Southern Tier counties, including Allegany, Cattaraugus, Chautauqua and eight more counties to the east.
But Reed had 52.1 percent of the vote, or a 10,000 vote margin.
Like the old 27th District, which Reed represents, the 23rd still leans Republican, with about 158,000 Republican voters to some 130,000 Democrats, but 27 percent of the voters are not enrolled with a major party.
The district now takes in all of left-leaning Tompkins County, where Shinagawa, a hospital administrator, also serves as a county legislator. In Tompkins, the home of Cornell University and the City of Ithaca, Democrats outnumber Republicans by a 2-1 margin. Democrats also hold a slight but notable advantage in Chautauqua County, at the district's western end.
Tompkins County polled strong for Shinagawa, giving him nearly 70 percent of the vote, or a 12,700-vote margin to buffer soft results elsewhere as he ran on the Democratic and Working Families Party lines.
Reed gathered votes on the Republican, Conservative and Independence lines, winning his home county of Steuben, and he built a small lead in Chautauqua County, as well.
Was the tight race expected? Though outspent, the Shinagawa campaign reported that a late-October internal poll showed their candidate within 5 percentage points of the GOP incumbent. The Reed camp disputed the poll, but Reed also had the ignoble distinction of being among those congressional representatives who took a dip in the Sea of Galilee in the summer of 2011, when he was part of a congressional delegation on a fact-finding mission to Israel. Though it's not illegal to swim there, it broke from the decorum that the delegation wanted to project.
The race remained close throughout the early evening. Reed had planned a triumphant conference call with reporters at 10:45 p.m. but, to be safe, he delayed it to 11:30.
The 26th: Higgins vs. Madigan
Incumbent Democrat Brian K. Higgins coasted to victory for his fifth term in Congress as he defeated lesser-known challenger Michael H. Madigan. Madigan, a Grand Island Republican with tea party backing, also held the Conservative and Independence party lines. With 99 percent of the vote counted, Higgins had 74.6 percent of the vote.
The new 26th District has been confined primarily to Buffalo, its inner ring suburbs and the City of Niagara Falls. In sum, Democrats outumber Republicans by a 2-1 margin, making Higgins even more of the odds-on favorite.
Madigan, at a disadvantage in fundraising and media attention, resorted to a door-to-door campaign.
"I was really surprised by the support that I received from both Democrats and Independence Party voters," he said in a prepared statement on the eve of Election Day. "I must admit that I assumed this area would be a challenge since it is Brian Higgins' home turf, but the passion for change is as strong here as everywhere else."
Door-to-door campaigning, however, is an exhausting and time-consuming way to turn things around in a district that has some 717,000 people and 428,000 voters.
The 25th: Slaughter vs. Brooks
Republicans spent millions of dollars in an effort to unseat Louise Slaughter, a Democrat from the Rochester suburb of Fairport. But she was easily relected to Congress for her 14th term.
Throughout the evening, she built a commanding lead over Republican challenger Maggie Brooks, the Monroe County executive. Slaughter's old district had looked like a pair of earmuffs, an area stretching from Buffalo to Rochester and dipping into Fairport to include her official residence. The new district is confined to Monroe County, and even though it leans Democratic, Brooks was a formidable opponent, the first for Slaughter in 10 years.
Brooks has been elected countywide, in victories for county executive and county clerk. Her years as a television anchor in Rochester made her a household name. Her donors included the Republican Party's biggest names in the House of Representatives: Speaker John Boehner of Ohio and Majority Leader Eric Cantor of Virginia.
Slaughter took 57 percent of the vote, or 166,342 votes to Brooks's 124,585, according to unofficial results from the Associated Press.
Slaughter was first elected in 1986, and her stability has made her a steady force within the Democratic conference in the House. Because Republicans had made her a target, former President Bill Clinton appeared for her at a campaign rally, locking arms with both Slaughter and Rep. Kathleen C. Hochul, who faced a tough re-election bid. A Sienna Poll at the end of October showed Slaughter with a 10-point lead among likely voters.
In 2007, Slaughter became the first woman to serve as chairwoman of the influential House Committee on Rules, a position that allowed her to influence nearly every piece of legislation that comes to the House floor for a vote. She held that position from 2007 until 2011, when Republicans regained control of Congress. .
Slaughter also serves on the Democratic Steering and Policy Committee, and is chairwoman of two congressional caucuses: the Congressional Arts Caucus and the Bipartisan Congressional Pro-Choice Caucus, of which she was a founding member.

An East Side man who admitted that he shot and killed an acquaintance last December was sentenced Tuesday to 23 years in prison.
Wayne P. Vance, 30, of Briscoe Avenue, avoided the maximum 25-year prison term because Erie County Judge Michael F. Pietruszka said his guilty plea showed he accepted responsibility and spared the victim's family a trial.
Vance pleaded guilty to first-degree manslaughter for the Dec. 28, 2011 nighttime shooting death of Frederick Gelsey Jr., 30, a New York City resident who was visiting his hometown.
Gelsey was shot at a residence on Briscoe Avenue.

Answers FAQ
Summer Food Safety FAQs
Reviewed by John P. Cunha, DO, FACOEP
Take the Summer Food Safety Quiz First! Before reading this FAQ, challenge yourself and
Test your Knowledge!
Q:The refrigerator door is the best place to store eggs, milk, and meat. True or False?
A:False. Eggs, milk, or meat should never be stored in the refrigerator door.
Q:The transfer of harmful bacteria to other items, surfaces, or foods describes what?
A:The transfer of harmful bacteria to other items, surfaces, or foods describes cross-contamination. Cross-contamination is the transfer of harmful bacteria to food from other foods, cutting boards, utensils, etc., if they are not handled properly. This is especially true when handling raw meat, poultry, and seafood, so keep these foods and their juices away from already cooked or ready-to-eat foods and fresh produce.
Q:Should you wash meats before you cook them?
A:No! You should NOT wash meats before cooking.
Q:For how long is raw ground beef safe in the refrigerator?
A:Raw ground beef in the refrigerator is safe for 1 to 2 days. Uncooked hamburger, ground beef, turkey, veal, pork, lamb, and mixtures of these meats are good for 1 to 2 days in the refrigerator. In the freezer, these foods will maintain their quality for 3 to 4 months.
Q:A "sell by" date on a package is a guide. Food is good for up to 7 days after the "sell by" date. True or False?
A:False. You should not buy a product after the "sell by" date. A "sell-by" date tells the store how long to display the product for sale. You should buy the product before the date expires.
Q:What is Listeria?
A:Ther term Listeria refers to a group of foodborne bacteria. Listeria, specifically Listeria monocytogenes, is a group of bacteria capable of causing illness including potentially fatal infections in the elderly, newborns, pregnant women, and persons with a weakened immune system. Listeria is a very common bacterium with an unusual trait: It can grow at refrigerator temperatures. And it can build up in food-processing plants, where it can survive for years.
Q:Foodborne illness (food poisoning) is at its highest in the summer. True or False?
A:True. Foodborne illnesses do increase during the summer, and the reasons appear to be twofold.
Q:Most people will get sick within hours of eating contaminated food. True or False?
A:False. People rarely get sick from contaminated food, because most people have healthy immune systems that protect them from harmful bacteria or viruses on food and other harmful organisms in the environment.
Q:What is the main cause of food poisoning?
A:Keeping food at an unsafe temperature is the prime cause of food poisoning. Consider these tips for summer food safety (and year-round):
Q:The best way to tell if meat is thoroughly cooked is by what?
A:The best way to tell if meat is thoroughly cooked is by using a thermometer to determine internal temperature. Meat and poultry cooked on a grill often brown very fast on the outside. Even the most expert griller can't tell when food is done just by looking at it -- or even cutting into it. A meat thermometer gives the best reading, so you won't be stuck with dried out, overcooked meats. You can take foods off the grill when they reach these internal temperatures:
Q:What is the number one food safety mistake in the U.S?
A:Tasting food to determine if it's fit to eat is the number one dangerous food mistake in the U.S.
Q:Is it ever safe to place cooked meat on a plate that held raw meat?
A:No, it is never safe to place cooked meat on a plate that held raw meat. This is the second worst food safety mistake in America.
Q:It is not necessary to wash fruits or vegetables if you're going to peel them. True or False?
A:False. Because it's easy to transfer bacteria from the peel or rind you're cutting to the inside of your fruits and veggies, it's important to wash all produce, even if you plan to peel it.
Q:While shopping for BBQ food items, what should be picked up right before checkout?
A:Cold foods like meat and poultry should be obtained last, right before checkout. Separate raw meat and poultry from other food in your shopping cart. To guard against cross-contamination — which can happen when raw meat or poultry juices drip on other food — put packages of raw meat and poultry into plastic bags. Plan to drive directly home from the grocery store. You may want to take a cooler with ice for perishables. Always refrigerate perishable food within 2 hours. Refrigerate within 1 hour when the temperature is above 90 F (32.2 C).

PORT ROYAL - Local photographer and digital artist Eric Olson has developed a fusion of fashion and art with his newly released Swiss Rainbow scarf. The scarf is being used to fund the "Art with Heart" collection at the Montgomery County Hospice in honor of Olson's father, William, who recently passed away.
"He was a remarkable father, full of intelligence, love and creativity," Olson said. "As dad was dying, the Montgomery County Hospice came to help. They were so helpful, generous and understanding. I wanted to give something of myself in return."
Olson offered to curate an "Art with Heart" collection, designed to heal people with the positive power of art. The exhibit will include world class photographs donated by the Foundation for Photo/Art in Hospitals, Olson said.

A limited number of Eric Oldon's Swiss Rainbow scarf are available for purchase. Proceeds will be used to fund the 'Art with Heart' collection at the Montgomery County Hospice in honor of Olson's father, William, who recently passed away.
"'Art with Heart' is usually meant to help people heal and leave the hospital, but Casey House, the acute care hospital (of Montgomery County Hospice), is for people who are dying and have little hope of recovery," Olson said. "So our mission here is threefold: to soothe the patients, to provide hope to relatives and to lift the spirits of the staff."
Olson is looking to fund the project through the sale of his new Swiss Rainbow scarf, digitally developed from original photography and handmade in China. The scarf features a mixture of colors resulting from a digitally transformed photograph of rainbow swiss chard taken at a local farmers market.
"The 'origin photo' is selected for color and content and then goes through a special 'transformation' process I've developed," Olson said. "In the process, a new and unique image is developed, with interesting forms and shapes and a harmonious, complex color palette."
The scarves are available for purchase online at windmillcreekstudio.com for $75 each. Only 30 scarves are available, each made from silk satin and signed by the artist.
"The Rainbow Swiss Limited Edition Signature Scarf is both art and fashion, giving the buyer a chance to support art and do some good in the world," Olson said. "Unlike ordinary designs, the piece is wearable art, issued just like a fine art print edition, with a signed and numbered certificate of authenticity."
Olson predicts that the "Art with Heart" collection will cost roughly $900 and he hopes to fund the entire project through the sale of these scarves. The cost will cover photo printing and framing, Olson said. To limit spending, he will personally make each frame using top quality imported Italian frame molding, special UV protective glass and conservation grade materials.
If an establishment were to purchase, ship and install this 10-piece collection at normal prices, including professional framing, they'd end up investing something close to $6,250, Olson said.
Besides curating the collection, Olson will also contribute half of the photos, which will include images from Port Royal and the surrounding area.
"In all my travels I've never seen a more serene, calming and beautiful landscape than central Pennsylvania and I hope my photographs will carry that feeling into the hospice," Olson said. "I can't think of anything more appropriate for a collection of healing art."
Photos are also being personally donated by Elaine Poggi, founder and director of the Foundation for Photo/Art in Hospitals.
Olson is planning to have the "Art with Heart" collection completed and on display by early spring.

Towne Automotive Group has renewed its push for tax breaks from the Clarence Industrial Development Agency for a planned Mini car dealership, saying the auto group cannot guarantee that the project will happen without them.
Towne has received development plan approval from the town for the $1.9 million project and acquired land for the dealership at Main Street and Woodward Road, across from where Towne Mini shares space with a BMW dealership.
The Clarence IDA last month informally decided not to consider Towne's request for tax breaks for the Mini dealership, believing that the project was moving forward, anyway. But David M. Downing, vice president of Towne Automotive Group, and Horace A. Gioia, an attorney for Towne, presented a much different picture at the Clarence IDA's meeting Thursday.
Gioia said Towne had factored Clarence IDA tax breaks into its budget for a new Mini facility, while acknowledging that such benefits had not been promised. "Without trying to be arrogant or maybe assuming anything, we did contemplate IDA benefits," he said. And Downing called tax breaks "very significant for the project."
Towne is essentially landlocked at its joint BMW/Mini location, just east of Transit Road, so the dealer group has looked across the street to expand, Downing said. The project would enable Towne to sell more Minis and free up more space for its BMW operations, he said.
Towne has the sole Mini franchise in the Buffalo market, and until more Mini dealerships opened in New York State, Towne used to sell them all the way to Albany. A Dorschel Mini dealership recently opened in Rochester, which Downing said will cut into Towne Mini's revenues from that market.
"The current 37 percent of our sales for service, parts and the autos, we expect to lose to Rochester over time," Downing said. On an annualized basis, he said, that amounts to losing $290,000 in parts sales and $2.4 million in vehicle sales.
A new Clarence dealership, he said, "is a way to lure more inventory out of Mini." Towne's allocation of Minis could increase to 600 vehicles, from the current 300 vehicles, but Towne's overhead expenses will also rise with a new dealership, he said. "When we put up a facility like this," he said, "we don't get any assistance from Mini. What they'll do is offer us more cars."
Selling an additional 300 Minis would generate $650,000 more in sales tax revenues, "and that's a repeating benefit," Downing said. The new facility would also generate more property tax revenues and create 11 new jobs, nine at the Mini dealership and two at the BMW location.
Mini has projected that its North American sales will increase by 40 percent over the next five years, but Downing said Towne is at a crossroads. "This is the point at which we say go. Or if we pull back and stay put, we've got strong competition in Rochester – the Dorschel Group is very good; we're giving up a lot of our business there – and we're facing the option: Do we stick our neck out and take on the additional expenditures on the potential gain that could be had there? Or do we take the safe route in this economy and say, 'You know what? What we [already] have is just fine.'?"
Clarence IDA board members made no commitments to Towne. Copies of Towne's application are being distributed to board members. "We can certainly talk about it over the next month and get back to you," David C. Hartzell Jr., the Clarence IDA's chairman, told Downing.
Based on how the board decides to proceed, Towne's request could appear on the agenda for the IDA's Dec. 20 meeting.

on February 8, 2013 - 11:40 PM
After watching his team sleepwalk through the first quarter Friday night, St. Joe's coach Mark Simon was determined to have his players change the tempo after the halftime break.
A suffocating, full-court man-to-man press did just that, as the Marauders put up a ridiculous 57 points in the second half of an 81-58 win over Monsignor Martin Athletic Association rival Bishop Timon-St. Jude.
"We're capable of that," Simon said, "but we threw a stinker out in the first quarter. It took us a while to get going."
Once they did, there was no looking back for St. Joe's, the fourth-ranked large school in The Buffalo News poll. Guard play was a big reason why.
Jordan Glover (17 points, 10 assists, six steals) and Jaylen Morris (14 points, five assists, eight steals) combined for 14 steals, several of which led to transition baskets for the Marauders, who after trailing at halftime, 26-24, scored 37 points in the third quarter, during which Glover had 13 of his 17 points. Louis Oliveri added 16 points for St. Joe's (17-4, 9-1).
"We forced them to throw the ball around a lot, then we were able to convert," Simon said.
Damone Harris had 17 points for Timon (10-11, 6-3), The News' seventh-ranked large school.
Billies start big
Williamsville South boys basketball coach Gabe Michael could sense all week in practice his team was ready for Friday night's showdown with ECIC II rival Sweet Home.
Boy, was he right.
Michael watched as his Billies blitzed the Panthers with a 23-0 run to start the game on their way to a big 72-53 victory.
"We were just so ready to play," Michael said. "After every basket, I had to stop the guys on the bench from coming out on the floor, they were so pumped up."
Williamsville South (11-4, 7-2) was led by senior Chaq Nettles' 23 points, while point guard Sam Castronova added 14 points and distributed the ball well all night.
The Billies avenged an earlier loss to the Panthers this season.
"We were out to prove we belong in the top of the section," Michael said. "We never looked back after that opening run."
Michael Torrillo had a game-high 28 points for the Panthers (13-3, 10-1), who were ranked 10th in The News large school poll coming into the game.
Also in ECIC II, Timothy Kane steadied Hamburg with some clutch free-throw shooting down the stretch of a 54-50 victory over Williamsville East. Kane went 3 of 4 from the line in the fourth quarter – after Hamburg had been 1 of 7. The Bulldogs' Jeremiah Bull had six of his 14 points in the final quarter, one that started tied at 34. Griffin Ryan had a double-double with 16 points and 12 rebounds as the Bulldogs evened their overall record at 8-8 and improved to 6-5 in league play.
Will East (5-11, 4-7) got points from just four players, led by Nicholas Clough (18) and Michael Spina (17).
Elsewhere, Denis Vanini and Derrick Sekuterski each had 13 points as Depew earned a 67-60 ECIC III victory over Lake Shore. The Wildcats (10-6, 8-4), who also got a dozen points from Cody Penner, jumped out to a 40-24 lead at halftime.
Senior Clark Brueckl led all scorers with 18 points for Lake Shore (7-9, 5-8).

President Obama has thus far failed to use the bully pulpit to make the case for bold action on climate change. After successfully passing his green stimulus package, he did nothing to defend it when Congress decimated its funding....Without presidential leadership that focuses intensely on making the public aware of the reality we face, nothing will change.
Many political advisers assume that a president has to deal with the world of politics as he finds it, and that it is unwise to risk political capital on an effort to actually lead the country toward a new understanding of the real threats and real opportunities we face. Concentrate on the politics of re-election, they say. Don't take chances.All that might be completely understandable and make perfect sense in a world where the climate crisis wasn't "real." Those of us who support and admire President Obama understand how difficult the politics of this issue are in the context of the massive opposition to doing anything at all — or even to recognizing that there is a crisis. And assuming that the Republicans come to their senses and avoid nominating a clown, his re-election is likely to involve a hard-fought battle with high stakes for the country....But in this case, the President has reality on his side. The scientific consensus is far stronger today than at any time in the past. Here is the truth: The Earth is round; Saddam Hussein did not attack us on 9/11; Elvis is dead; Obama was born in the United States; and the climate crisis is real. It is time to act.

The way Chris Pond sees it, Southern Wesleyan is getting a steal.
Goose Creek High School senior shortstop/pitcher Tyler Rio has signed with the Warriors after earning five letters with the Gators.
Not taking anything away from Southern Wesleyan but I think Tyler could have gone to a Div. I or upper-tier Division II school, said Pond, who just wrapped up his first season as coach of the Gators. Either way, Im glad he gets to continue his career. Hes only going to grow in the next couple years.
Southern Wesleyan is an NAIA school located in Central, near Clemson in Pickens County.
Rio began playing on the varsity team in the eighth grade and finished with a solid senior campaign this spring.
He was 5-4 as the No. 2 region starter and struck out 65 batters in 52 innings. He also batted .284 with 13 runs and nine RBIs as the Gators finished second in Region 7-AAAA and advanced to the District V title game.
Rio topped the .300 mark at the plate as a freshman (.323) and sophomore (.310) and had four pitching victories apiece his sophomore (4-4, 3.07 ERA) and junior seasons (4-2, 1.89 ERA).
Im very pleased to have gotten to coach him for one year, Pond said. Ive only had one other player to work as hard as he did and that was Cody Craig at Timberland. You wish you had 20 of them just like him. He put in extra time.
Southern Wesleyan is a member of the 12-team Southern States Athletic Conference.

MIAMI BEACH, Fla. - Dabo Swinney could walk a few paces to his left and inquire about tickets to a swanky New Year's Eve concert.
Live from Miami
Post and Courier beat writer Aaron Brenner has arrived in south Florida with all your news and notes on Clemson, Ohio State and the Orange Bowl. Follow him on Twitter for all the latest updates.
Or Clemson's coach could change from his three-piece suit to a swimsuit and take a dip in the lavish pools and hot tubs sparkling inside the Fontainebleau Miami Beach Resort.
Lounges and DJs, bikinis and night clubs.
The temptations of south Florida are everywhere. It's Swinney's tall task to keep everybody's eye on the prize who made the trip for Clemson football - players, staff and families alike.
"We have a good group of young men, and they're in society every day. So you can't shield them," Swinney said in the middle of a bustling hotel lobby, as a few curious guests occasionally stopped to gawk and take cellphone pictures.
"We have rules in place, and curfews and all that. You hope everybody will do what's right and abide by the rules. But our guys know if they don't, there's consequences."
The Orange Bowl rolled out the welcome mat Sunday afternoon at Miami International Airport for the team's charter plane, and the three busses adorned with Clemson football arrived at the hotel shortly after 4 p.m.
The Fontainebleau, a 59-year-old artifact brimming with international flair and more than 1,500 rooms across its four towers, rests on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean. Its world-renowned pool area has been showcased on TV (The Sopranos) and in the movies (Scarface, Goldfinger and The Bodyguard.)
"It's definitely not the normal place to stay at any bowl, to be honest with you," Swinney said. "This place is probably the most unique hotel we'll stay at, of all our bowl experiences. But it's a lot of fun, and our guys have earned it."
The Tigers stayed at both the Hyatt Regency Bonaventure in Weston, Fla. and the Westin Diplomat Resort and Spa in Hollywood, Fla., preceding their 2012 Orange Bowl trip.
Ohio State arrived Sunday, and is staying in Hollywood.
Overcast skies and wind swaying the palm trees from side to side are a slight deterrent to the usual ambiance of Florida this time of year, but temperatures are still rising into the 70s - about 25-30 degrees warmer than Clemson the morning the team flew south.
"It felt really good stepping off the plane. (The heat) hit us immediately," kicker Chandler Catanzaro said. "It's an honor to be down here. We're excited to get on the field and start practicing."
The team's stay is going to be briefer than two years ago. The hotel was unable to accommodate the Tigers before Sunday.
"We want to have fun, but I told them getting on the plane today, let's make sure you have the type of focus you need to give yourself a chance to be successful," Swinney said. "Managing the distractions and environment is part of it, but it's the same for both teams."
Clemson has a team and family beach outing Monday, a team dinner at Texas de Brazil in Miami Beach on Tuesday night (New Year's Eve) and a hospital visit scheduled Wednesday.
"We've got to do a great job as a staff keeping them dialed in," Swinney said, "but also having a good balance of letting them have some fun along the way."
There will be some free time for the players as well.
"We're definitely going to have a lot of fun and enjoy the hotel, facilities and different events they put on for us," linebacker Spencer Shuey said. "But the maturity level on our team has shown we know it's a business trip and we're going to treat it as such."
A little while after the team headed upstairs to check into their rooms, the Bleau Bar blared with The Power Station's "Some Like It Hot," urging vacationers to "feel the heat, ready or not."
Five days after landing in Miami, Clemson gets its chance to wipe away the stain of its last Orange Bowl experience, ready or not.
"It's a reward to be here, for the season we put together. But there are rules and regulations you've got to follow," Catanzaro said. "You want to make sure our main focus is to win the game."
Ohio State short-handed
The Buckeyes might be down their sack leader Friday.
Sophomore Noah Spence, designated OSU's "viper" on defense, is not with the team in Miami.
"Noah didn't fly down with us," Ohio State coach Urban Meyer said. "He's working through some personal issues at home."
Meyer left the door open for Spence, who has eight sacks, to return to the team prior to gametime.

Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
Developers of DTC Genetic Testing Are...
Quadruple Helices Appear To Have Role...
LC-MS Gains Favor Due To the...
Sigma Life Science's Sigma Advanced Genetic Engineering (SAGE) Labs, and Ekam Imaging are teaming up to develop a suite of preclinical services that will combine SAGE's rat models of neurological disorders and Ekam's functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) technology. Sigma Life Sciences separately announced a deal with ADME/tox services firm Cyprotex, through which the latter will be able to offer its clients knockout transporter screening services utilizing Sigma's CompoZr® zinc finger nuclease technology-based drug screening assays.
SAGE Labs' rat models have been engineered to reflect patient-relevant mutations and exhibit relevant phenotypes. Through the collaboration with Ekam the models will be studied using Ekam's fMRI technology, which can be used to provide detailed maps of a conscious animal's brain activity, unlike other fMRI studies that require anesthetized, unconscious animals, the firms claim. "Probing the brain functions of a conscious animals...produces data that is much more representative of a potential therapy's effect on human processes," comments Mark Nedelman, president and CEO at Ekam.
Sigma and Ekam plan to launch services based on SAGE Labs' neuroscience rat models in early 2013. Ekam is already using its technology to produce a detailed map of neural activity in SAGE Lab's Pink1 gene knockout rat, which has been generated for the Michael J. Fox Foundation to model Parkinson's disease, and exhibits delayed-onset motor deficits that mimic those of Parkinson's disease in humans.
The license agreement between Cyprotex and Sigma represents the first nonexclusive deal signed by the latter for the CompoZr-based knockout transporter cell assay technology. "These novel assays are key products of our highly predictive suite of engineered cell lines and transgenic animal models," remarks Paul Brooks, Ph.D., market segment manager for Sigma Life Sciences.
Cyprotex says the single and double functional knockout transporter services will allow it to offer clients specific, mechanistic assays to investigate the interaction of test compounds with MDR1 (P-gp), BCRP, and MRP2 transporters, without the use of chemical inhibitors that can interact with multiple transporters and produce an ambiguous representation of potential drug-drug interactions.

Police have a suspect in custody, but no motive as to why Brian G. Chapman Jr. was gunned down while on the front porch of his Guilford Street home early Wednesday morning.
"It certainly sounds, at this point, that Mr. Chapman was doing nothing but waiting for a ride to go to work," said Chief of Detectives Dennis J. Richards.
Joshua J. Mitchell, 24, of LaSalle Avenue, has been charged in connection with the fatal shooting of Chapman, 39, a Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority bus driver.
Mitchell is being held on two felony weapons counts, including one for a previous conviction in 2007, as Homicide Squad Detective Sgt. James P. Lonergan and Detective James A. Lema build a murder case against him, Richards said.
A .38-caliber revolver recovered near the scene is believed to be the murder weapon.
Chapman was on his porch, in the 300 block of Guilford, just before 5 a.m. Wednesday, waiting for a ride to work, the chief said. Several shots were fired at him from a passing car.
Chapman was rushed to Erie County Medical Center, where he died from his wounds. It's the city's third homicide of the year.
Ferry-Fillmore District Officer Dennis R. Gilbert happened to be on patrol in the vicinity of Guilford when he heard the shots fired.
Soon after, Gilbert spotted a gray Saturn Ion, believed to be involved in the shooting, and stopped the car at Herman and Genesee streets. The .38-caliber handgun allegedly was tossed from the rear of the car and was recovered at Guilford and Genesee by Officer Jeremy W. Connolly.
Mitchell, a passenger in the back seat of the Saturn, was booked by Gilbert and Officer Brian O. Griffin.
Mitchell is being held in the Erie County Holding Center as he awaits a court appearance in Buffalo City Court.
Meanwhile, news of Chapman's death was greeted with sadness at the NFTA.
Chapman had worked out of the authority's Cold Spring bus garage, where his colleagues were given the tragic news as they came into work.
"Everybody knew Brian," said Jeffrey Richardson, the vice president of Transit Union Local 1342.
Chapman had worked at the NFTA for 12 years, officials said. He drove buses on routes all across the city and worked as a clerk in the office when people were on vacation or the staff was short-handed, Richardson said.
"He was friendly. Happy. A great guy," Richardson said. "He would do anything he could for anybody. Brian was loved by every worker here. Nobody spoke an ill word about Brian. He is going to be one that is truly missed."
Chapman liked to be the life of the party, Richardson said, and often talked about his family, including his father, Brian Sr., who works as a rail controller with the NFTA's Metro Division.
"He enjoyed his job, and he was appreciated by the customers that he picked up each and every day, and he will be missed by the employees and his customers," NFTA spokesman C. Douglas Hartmayer said. "It's a tragic loss."

HIGHLAND HEIGHTS, Ky. – The Stetson University women's tennis team won its fifth straight match and fourth in a row against an A-Sun opponent, defeating Northern Kentucky 6-1, Saturday on its home courts.
The Hatters (15-5, 5-3) won five of six singles matches and all three doubles, just hours after defeating Lipcsomb (4-1) in Nashville, the day before.
"The ladies played an awesome match today considering the amount of sleep they had, due to our late arrival in Cincinnati earlier this morning," said Director of Stetson Tennis Pierre Pilote. "Most felt that they could have played better but under the circumstances, it was a great overall performance"
Saturday's match with the Norse started with a doubles sweep, as Diana Bukajeva/MayaBlue Stauffer-McDowell (Court No. 1), Andrea Crespo/Isabella Fernandez (No. 2) and Lindsey Cable/Eveline Lepinay (No. 3) were all victorious, making it 1-0 Stetson heading into singles play.
Lepinay got things started on court No. 5 with a 6-1, 6-0 decision to make it 2-0. Cable's win (6-0, 6-3) on court No. 6 extended the Stetson lead to 3-0, while Fernandez's 6-4, 6-3 triumph on No. 3, clinched the Hatter victory at 4-0.
Wins from Stauffer-MacDowell (6-1, 5-7, 6-3) on court No. 4 and Crespo (7-6 (7), 7-6 (5)) on No. 2 closed out the road competition with a final score of 6-1 in Stetson's favor. The lone Norse victory came on court No. 1 as NKU's Maria Voscekova outlasted Bukajeva 7-5, 7-5.
The Hatters have now had win streaks this season of five and 10 matches, their latest coming nearly almost all against conference opponents. Stetson has defeated Mercer, Kennesaw State, SUNY Onenta, Lipscomb and Northern Kentucky in just an eight day span.
Pilote's crew returns to the Sunshine State, where they will take on UCF for a non-conference tilt, Thursday, Apr. 10 at 2 p.m. in Orlando. The Hatters match with the Knights will be their last regular season match before the A-Sun Championship, scheduled for Apr. 18-20 at North Florida.

ALBANY – State Thruway officials say they are now looking at all alternatives to a 45 percent toll increase on trucks, and they are not ruling out a broader increase that will also hit passenger cars as a way of helping raise the $90 million annually envisioned by the planned increase on large trucks.
The agency's board is set to meet Dec. 17 to consider plans for a new downstate bridge across the Hudson River – set to cost upwards of $5 billion. Thruway Executive Director Thomas Madison would not say if the toll hike increase also will be on the agenda.
In May the agency proposed a 45 percent increase on three-axle vehicles, which would affect not only large trucks but vacationers hauling certain-size campers behind their cars or trucks.
Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo on Wednesday, during a public meeting with his agency commissioners, reiterated his call that a toll increase only be done as a "last resort.'' The agency is run by Cuomo appointees.
After the meeting, Madison said the agency is still examining a "whole range'' of ideas to raise the $90 million.

Style In The City of Manhattan: Brooklyn Bridge & All Saints Black Dress
22nd August 2012
Manhattan has an uncanny ability to make me feel like Carrie Bradshaw at times. The energy is infectious, the people full of spirit – New York City really feels like a place where anything can happen.
I remember arriving in the USA on December 27th 2010 after several huge snowfalls had hit New York. My first adventures in Manhattan were experienced through the snow, including a walk over the magnificent Brooklyn Bridge where I recall a big feeling of 'wow' hitting me as I took in the views of Manhattan and the islands.
Before my trip back to the UK this week, I returned to Brooklyn Bridge with my photographer Lydia to take some new photos of one of my favourite dresses from All Saints. From their premium collection last year, brought out in time for the party season, I am still in love with the gothic construction and parachute themed styling (an All Saints signature) of this gown.
There is a wonderful Harpers Bazaar cover with Sarah Jessica Parker running on Brooklyn Bridge in a pale blue dress full of layers of chiffon. I have this print to remind me of my wonderful stay in NYC:
Image above from here. All other photography: Lydia Hudgens.
Lots of people have asked me what it was like moving to Manhattan from the UK and living here: Was it amazing? Expensive? Friendly? Unfriendly? Rude even? Would I recommend it? Absolutely. To quote Carrie Bradshaw again:
"If you can only have one great love, then the city just may be mine. And I don't want nobody talkin' shit about my boyfriend." (Sex and the City TV Series)
I'll be back for a visit in September, Blog Reader. I've also worked with Lydia on lots of outfit posts over the last month in preparation for my various adventures and travels.
Normal blog service will resume from back in the UK very soon. I'm excited about my visit. So pass the crumpets.
Until then! StyleOnTheCouch xo

If you could have a custom M1911 built on any gun you wanted to your exact specifications, what would those specifications be, what M1911 variant would it be based upon, who would you hire to do the work?

I would pick a Colt Series 70 Repro and send it to Heirloom Precision.
A couple of details I'd like are their retro rear sight and the gold line front sight. I'd also have the front strap serrated and the guns edges gently smoothed, and whatever their typical reliability package may be. Not much else.
April 7, 2013, 01:09 PM
Personally, I would send a new production Colt Gold Cup National Match to Harrison Custom and have him give it his "Basic Carry" package, with the addition of the installation of a Jardine Tactical hook rear sight and tritium illum'd front sight. Refinished in bead blasted matte blue.
April 7, 2013, 01:26 PM
Hmmmmm... I would take a wilson frame and slide. Send it to Chuck Rogers for his dehorn. Then off to Stan Chen for serrations and magwell, then off to Terry Tussey for porting/lightning of the slide. Schuemann barrel and misc bulltetproof parts would round it out.
now to find a large stack of money and many years of patience.
April 7, 2013, 10:00 PM
I would have to look at an Ed Brown signature gun or just about anything from Pistol Dynamics
April 7, 2013, 10:42 PM
an original blued delta elite and have it reworked by Cylinder and Slide, then engraved by colt. Classy.
April 7, 2013, 11:07 PM
I would just invest in one of Les Baer's models. He can do fancy if you want it.

April 7, 2013, 11:13 PM
I am an IDPA shooter.
I don't want a BBQ gun or a carry gun too nice to carry, or a safe queen.
I want a first class IDPA ESP, therefore a full size 9mm with all improvements allowed in the rules. Aluminum frame and other parts as available, my present 33 oz Springfield MixMaster is about right.
About the nicest gun I have actually shot was a Colt extensively worked by Wilson.
I am sure they will tell you a current model all-Wilson gun is technically superior, but it can't be any more accurate, reliable, or better looking than this full house Colt. So a Wilson Classic would do nicely.
I have a plain but very well fitted Pachmayr Colt. That gives me a favorable attitude to Pistol Dynamics and the Liebenberg version of the Combat Special. If he would set up a lightweight.
I sure like the looks of Joe Chambers' guns I have seen on boards and zines. Maybe I could give him a shot, so to speak.

Wilson or STI. Top of the line will run $3,500+ but you'll get what you want.

Ed Brown Executive Carry in 10mm.
No aftermarket work needed. Would just like that gun in that caliber.
April 7, 2013, 11:22 PM
One of those engraved Ed Brown guns would hold its value pretty well.
April 7, 2013, 11:32 PM
http://www.vincelewis.net/AF2011A1.html here ya go,the ultimate 1911
April 8, 2013, 11:09 AM
If money and time were no object, then I would look into something by Rogers Precision.
In the here and now probably Ed Brown's Signature Classic Custom would do quite nicely.
April 8, 2013, 12:04 PM
Am I the only one who reeeeealy wants a 1911 in .50GI?
I'll take a Guncrafters Model 1, but with a meltdown and redone in hard matte chrome all over. I would also like an arched and checkered MSH with a lanyard loop, and a wide spur hammer and checkered short trigger to match. Give it some Trijicon sights (I like the rear that fits the standard colt dovetail), and a simple set of Hogue cobblestone standard rubber grip panels.
All I need is a nice leather IWB and I'm good to go.
April 8, 2013, 05:15 PM
what would those specifications be, what M1911 variant would it be based upon, who would you hire to do the work?
I'm more a user than a collector, so:
1. Bevel sharp edges on bottom of slide
2. Flush pin of slide stop and bevel hole
3. Beveled mag well...not an add-on piece
4. Solid trigger
5. Match barrel/bushing
6. Serrate rear of slide/ejector
7. Serrate top of slide
8. True lines of frame and slide (because I'll be using an old Colt Commercial frame)
9. Contour base of front sight to top of slide
Any top tier 1911 pistolsmith can tune the action and true the slide/frame, but I"d pick one of these and might end up sending it to all three just to take advantage of their specialties:
Ned Christensen - Rear Sight
Stan Chen - Front and rear strap texturing
Bruce Gray - Hardtail grip safety

Full size 1911 by volkmann. Shot one tried to trade my jeep for it and got denied fast

Full size 1911 by volkmann. Shot one tried to trade my jeep for it and got denied fast
I have a Colt MKIV Series 70 1911 (with the "100 Years of Service" rollmark) and I was thinking about getting on Volkmann's wait list for a retro-fit.
April 9, 2013, 03:00 AM
you guys are all suckers
if money and time are no object, I'm getting mine made by JMB with modern tools and techniques
April 9, 2013, 09:10 AM
A royal blued Les Baer built with all the look and features of a WWI Colt 1911 (except for target sights), performed with the highest level of accuracy offered by the factory.
April 9, 2013, 09:11 AM
If I had the money, I'd get a new SV Infinity Sight Tracker. I have an older SV that I really like, but the Sight Tracker is just plain cool.
April 9, 2013, 05:04 PM
Money no object? Heirloom Precision or Chuck Rogers.
April 9, 2013, 06:58 PM
Is no one else going to offer any specifications of what they'd like, on a custom 1911, for the OP?
April 9, 2013, 08:56 PM
Chuck Rogers for my "lookin' at" piece, and Jim Garthwaite for my "user". Since price is no object....

I have three Ed Browns and the first two were standard Special Forces models. When I ordered the third, a Special Forces Light Rail (now discontinued it seems) I figured I'd add some non-standard features. Although I wouldn't call it a true custom 1911 I'm pleased with how it turned out. My only complaint about Ed Brown pistols is the Gen III coating which isn't particularly durable compared to Dan Wesson's duty coat. I recently sent one of my Kimbers to Severns Custom for his Hard Hat treatment and may end up sending all three Ed Browns to him as well.
The pistol below was about $2,700 so add another $350 for Dave Severns' Hard Hat treatment and that puts the pistol at around $3,050. That's about as much as I'd ever pay for a 1911. Anyway, here are the features I ordered.
SF-SS-G3-LR-A (Special Forces Light Rail, stainless, Gen III coating)
25lpi checkering on the front strap and MSH (not SF chainlink)
Ambidextrous thumb safety
Front cocking serrations
Extended magazine release
Serrated slide stop
Rear 10-8 site and front night sight
8-pack magazine
April 10, 2013, 02:01 AM
Fusion slab sided commander in 9mm with a straight trigger and STI square hammer. Throw some Heinie's on it, then send it off to Chuck Rogers for a golf ball treatment, and dehorn. I like simple.
April 10, 2013, 02:24 AM
My dream would definitely be a frankengun of sorts. A commander length with full rail, polished chrome, covered with scroll engraving.
April 15, 2013, 03:07 PM
I'm going through that decision process, it's difficult to find a custom tactical commander in 10mm.
Hopefully by summer it'll be delivered and after a rigorous 1,000 round break in test, become a daily carry at my place. It will look something like this;
1911 custom Fusion T-Comm Pro Series Elite 10mm, Black Shield frame/slide, stainless small accent parts.
Fine rear slide serrations
Top slide diamondline serrations
10-8 rear sight, tritium Trijicon front sight
Browning Hi-Power press check slide cut
Trigger job 3.75-4.25lb clean let off
Pro Series commander hammer, silver
Pro Series K trigger, silver, light adj
416 stainless match grade, commander ramped 10mm barrel with fitted link
Barrel flush cut and target crown
Thick flange chamfered bushing
High ride beavertail
Magwell stainless mainspring housing, chain link
Chain link front strap
Extended tactical thumb safety
Serrated slide stop, forged sure lock
GI guide rod system
Slightly extended combat mag release checkered
C'sink frame and flush cut slide stop pin
AAA+ Cocobolo white Ranger grip, my choice at end of build
Polish sides of slide - apply Black Shield coat
Brush polish small accent parts
Radius dehorn all edges for carry
Extra spring kit for set up
4 additional magazines
This should make for a nice IWB carry while working at my place, town carry, in the saddle or on the tractor. Those 200gr WFNs are equilizers for anything we have in these parts, including an increase in hog activity. :)
April 15, 2013, 08:36 PM
I can come up with custom configurations all day long, but what I would love right now is:
Caspian Commander Carbon Steel Frame and Slide (Series 80) w/ external extractor
Ed Brown Barrel
Ed Brown Strong Side tactical safety
Harrison Custom Novak Cut rear sight (black)
Front Night Sight
Harrison Custom retro ignition set
Custom grip safety (standard 1911A1 grip safety with a memory bump added)
Smith and Alexander flat checkered mainspring housing (or an Ed Brown bobtail, not sure yet)
10-8 Performance flat trigger
Nighthawk extended mag release
VZ grips
All small parts from Ed Brown, Nighthawk, etc...
I'm bored and feel like experimenting...
April 15, 2013, 11:59 PM
a Singer 1911-A1..
April 16, 2013, 04:56 PM
I would love to have an Armand Swenson built Colt. I have Behlert and Clark customs and a Swenson gun would be the icing on the cake that is my collection.
For a new build I'd like two Colts, one built by Dane Burns and one by Chuck Rogers.

Bring a superior fit to every knit garment you sew with designer Dyanne Marte. Fit bodices beautifully as you adjust for figure variations in the bust, waist and shoulders. Correct gaping armholes and necklines and reshape too-tight necklines. Achieve full range of motion and a tailored look by altering armscye seams, getting the right amount of ease in the biceps, taking in forearms and setting in knit sleeves perfectly. Discover tips for altering a bodice that's too long or short and hem knit garments with confidence. Solve rise and thigh-fitting issues for knit pants. Plus, hone your fit even further with jelly tape, elastic and banding. Consistently sew fabulous-fitting knit garments that are a joy to wear.
Meet your instructor, knitwear designer Dyanne Marte, and review types of knit fabric, grain lines and seam allowances, then dive into extending your seam allowances to add fabric where you need it.
Tackle bodice adjustments along with Dyanne. You'll learn how to modify your pattern for broad or narrow shoulders, adjust the armscye accordingly, and take in or let out the bust.
If your armholes gape or your neckline is too tight, Dyanne has solutions for you. She demonstrates how to modify the side seam at the underarm, raise or lower the shoulder seams, and redraw the neckline for a more flattering fit.
Knits are much more forgiving when it comes to fitting sleeves, but sometimes you still need to add some ease at the biceps or take in the forearm. Dyanne shows how easy it is to make these alterations and to set in the sleeve. There's no fussing with basting and gathering; you just pin the sleeve to the armscye and sew!
Getting the length right on knits can be tricky because the fabric tends to stretch and grow. Dyanne shows how to adjust a dress bodice that is too long, and how to lengthen one. She walks you through her tips for evenly hemming skirts and tops as well.
A great-fitting yoga pant can be impossible to find unless you make it yourself. Dyanne covers the most common adjustments to knit pants for a smooth look through the rise, back and thighs.
Whether you make your own knits or buy them, you can make them more durable by adding jelly tape to critical seams. Dyanne also discusses how to use elastic in your knits and how to add banding to lengthen and stabilize hems, sleeves and necklines. Finally, she gives you some pointers for caring for your knit garments so you can enjoy them longer!
Praise for Dyanne Marte's The Perfect Knit Wrap Dress:
"I love this class. The instructor goes through every detail and answers your questions very clearly! ... Great class!"

A 39-year-old Westfield man was injured Saturday night when he became pinned by a wrecker he was operating as he attempted to winch a vehicle out of a ditch, according to the Chautauqua County Sheriff's Office.
Other wreckers responded to Cable Road in the Town of Arkwright to extricate David L. Overstreet.
He was transported to Brooks Hospital in Dunkirk.
Shortly before midnight, the wrecker Overstreet was operating for Mancuso's Service Center slid backward on the slippery road towards him and the vehicle, the sheriff's office said.
Overstreet was struck by the wrecker and then pinned between the wrecker and the bank of the ditch.
First responders worked to keep Overstreet stable and warm while wreckers from Mancuso's and Ellman's Garage were called to the scene to help extricate Overstreet. Town highway department employees assisted by laying down sand to help the heavy equipment navigate the slippery roadway.

Who do you think will take gold at the GPF in the men's division?
Patrick Chan
Yuzuru Hanyu
Takahiko Kozuka
Tatsuki Machida
Daisuke Takahashi
Javier Fernandez
Who do you think will take gold at the GPF in the men's division?
I really hope that Daisuke will win, although admittedly chances aren't that high. But I do love to watch him skating!
I was all about Dai last year, but I don't like his new programs nearly as much as last year's. I'm disappointed in them.
I don't have a strong sentimental favourite this time around. I guess I'd like for Chan to win this, but only if he's a good boy and lands his jumps.
Seems to me that Chan is the most likely, though I could see Yuzuru stepping up. I'd love to see Kozuku take it home, but I think the tech just isn't there for him. Hope all skate their best.
Chan will win. But I wish kozuka would.
I'm pretty sure Chan will win. Hanyu's still not quite there yet.
I actually couldn't bring myself to vote for this one - silly of me, I know! The problem is that the ones I would prefer to win, I don't think will - and the ones I think are likely... well, I'm just not in the mood for voting for them...
Like pairs the real question is who will be No. 2 and 3.
Unlike pairs all contenders have lots of positives for me.
Hanyu - I like his SP, technical and involvement.
Takahashi - I like his LP, the drama of verismo opera captured by his skating.
Fernandez - I like his LP. Really poignant. Wish he would not crumble.
Kozuka - Not so keen on his choice of music etc but if he can nail the jumps he will be gorgeous.
Machida - I like his SP & LP. He is improving too and has a distinct style.
We will have THE battle between Chan and Hanyu next season, not this season.
Last edited by StellaCampo; 12-06-2012 at 04:07 PM.
I predict that Hanyu will win the short and Patrick will win the free.
Chan will emerge with the victory

Right to Work Legal Director Testifies Before Congress on Barriers to Enforcing Employees' Rights Not to Pay for Union Politics
Says National Labor Relations Board has failed to protect workers who wish to refrain from subsidizing union politics
Washington, DC (February 13, 2013) – Ray LaJeunesse, Vice President and Legal Director of the National Right to Work Foundation, testified today before a subcommittee of the House Committee on Education and the Workforce about the need to more vigorously enforce employees' rights to refrain from funding union politics.
LaJeunesse, who has over 40 years of experience on the Foundation's legal staff and has argued four cases before the U.S. Supreme Court, repeatedly criticized the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) for its lax enforcement of the rights of workers who wish to refrain from union affiliation. Under the Foundation-won Supreme Court precedent Communication Workers v. Beck, private sector employees have the right to refrain from paying for union activities unrelated to workplace bargaining, such as members-only events and union political activism.
However, LaJeunesse pointed out that the Board has permitted union officials to erect a number of bureaucratic hurdles that discourage independent-minded employees from asserting their Beck rights. LaJeunesse noted that many unions now require employees to annually renew their objections to union political spending during a designated "window period," a practice that allows union officials to continue extracting full dues from nonunion employees if they miss an arbitrary filing deadline.
Moreover, the Board has recently held that nonunion employees can be charged for organizing activities and political lobbying for "goals that are germane to collective bargaining." This elastic interpretation of the Supreme Court's Beck standard undermines the ability of nonunion employees to refrain from funding ideological and organizing activities they may disagree with.
"In sum, the problem is systemic," concluded LaJeunesse. "The Board has dismally failed to protect workers' Beck rights. Indeed, the current Board seems bent on totally eviscerating those rights."
"As our Legal Director noted in his testimony before Congress, the Board has shown a total disregard for the rights of independent-minded employees," said Mark Mix, President of the National Right to Work Foundation. "We hope this testimony will serve as a wake-up call to concerned citizens worried about the Board's pro-forced unionism bias."
