Among the tippling cognoscenti, Kentucky bourbons are very big these days. As well they should be: There are riches to be discovered among these distinctive American spirits. Single-barrel Kentucky bourbons can easily possess as much polished character as any fabulous Scotch.
Earlier this year, the chatter in Dallas' cocktail demimonde was all about local mixologists embarking on whiskey treks through Kentucky and Tennessee, visiting distilleries, sipping ryes, buying up single-barrel bourbons for their bars. Nick Badovinus, chef-owner of the Neighborhood Services trio of Dallas restaurants plus their divey burger-and-taco-slinging cousin, Off-Site Kitchen, caught the bourbon bug last spring, too. He shuttered Neighborhood Services Tavern and set off toward bourbon country. When he returned, he reopened his Henderson Avenue space as a Kentucky bourbon theme bar — the Tried and True.
Badovinus and his waitstaff and barmen are well-versed in the ways of whiskey, and they can tell you what's best which way, whether it's a single- barrel Rock Hill Farms 100 proof bourbon from Frankfort, Ky., (shows best poured neat) or an Elmer T. Lee "rye recipe" 90 proof, also from Frankfort, which Badovinus recommends on ice.
Can't decide? Go for one of the daily flights of three. Start by "nosing" and sipping each, then add a few drops of the room-temperature distilled water served with them in a clever pitcher that pours drop by drop (it opens up their aromas) or an ice cube or two. Depending on the night of the week, there may be a wait for a table or a spot at the bar, but there's an auxiliary counter where you can stand and sip contentedly — or take in a round of pool or darts. Thursdays through Saturdays, two booths are hauled out of a corner in front, a band comes in, and the place rocks.
Naturally Badovinus offers comestibles to match the Kentucky and other bourbons. If there's a bar snack that goes better with them than a big plate piled high with crackling pork rinds, I can't think of it. Light and brittle, they melt in your mouth with a splendid pork-whispering flavor; they come with a zippy Carolina barbecue sauce for dipping. Equally felicitous is the sampler of three artisanal country hams. Tripp Country Ham from Brownsville, Tenn., was served in place of the Mecham Country Ham on the menu the night I ordered it; it was as silky as a great jamón Serrano, with a touch of smoky sweetness. Benton's Smoky Mountain Country Ham, from Madisonville, Tenn., is saltier and earthier, with the less-dense, drier texture more commonly associated with American hams, and just as wonderful. From Kuttawa, Ky., Broadbent Country Ham rounded out the trio somewhere in the middle. The prosciutto-thin slices are served with toasted croutons and apple butter, whose gentle, bright sweetness complements them nicely, along with spicy mustard, which to my palate, does nothing for them.
I fretted, on my way back to the Tried and True for a second visit, that I couldn't in good conscience spend the paper's money on another round of these treats (they were so good!), but I was just as happy with some of the other snacks, such as charmingly briny Barnstable oysters on the half-shell or succulent peel-and-eat shrimp with a jazzy green tomato tartar sauce (and cocktail sauce, natch) for dipping.
These sea-bites didn't really sing with sour mash. But whiskey and livers — a smooth, light, mousselike chicken liver pâté served with toasted baguette slices — proved to be as swell a pairing with bourbon as are the ham and pork rinds. It may be the most extravagantly delicious $6 you can spend in Dallas. The menu also offers peppered brisket nachos, but our waiter announced a special nacho. We bit and were glad we did. These were superior nachos, if there is such a thing: crisp tortilla chips blanketed with deep-flavored, tender pulled pork, chunks of ripe avocado, melted cheddar, slices of green Hatch chiles, touches of pico de gallo, drizzles of crema. Each chip seemed to have exactly the right balance of stuff.
By then, we'd moved on to beer, which, incidentally, would have worked better with the oysters and shrimp. Peticolas Royal Scandal, a hoppily bitter English pale ale brewed in the Design District, was ideally suited to Badovinus' hot, light, crisp, perfect fish and chips, made that night from silver hake. Meanwhile, Neighborhood Services Tavern's outstanding "cleaver and block" burger has been reincarnated here; I asked for mine sans American cheese and avec roasted green chile, and fell in love all over again; that juicy meat has great flavor, and the accompanying golden thin-cut fries are killer.
Soft, flour tortilla-wrapped tacos filled with broiled fish-du-jour and shredded cabbage Baja-style needed an acid zing they couldn't get from the lemon provided, nor from a timid salsa; the ones filled with tender shredded brisket with pico, avocado and a bit of grated smoked cheddar were much better. Both came with bourbon-spiked pinto beans.
If I could change two things about the Tried and True, it would be labeling the beer-can chicken and field greens as a salad (I thought we were ordering a chicken dish with some greens on the side), and opening up for lunch. I'd be happier eating some of these dishes, like the Derby sandwich — shaved pit ham layered with smoked cheddar pimento cheese and a hot pepper-bacon relish between slices of Village Baking Co. sourdough — by daylight. Actually, make that three things: I'd also rethink the dessert duo and come up with a sweet or two that really celebrates whiskey. The likable pecan pie is a natural to sip with bourbon, but the gooey, chocolaty Mississippi mud brownie obliterates its nuances.
But this is splitting hairs. I'll be back to this laid-back, friendly spot — one of the most original to open in Dallas in ages — and hopefully soon. I'm still fixin' to try the Willet Pot Still Reserve 94 proof Kentucky straight bourbon from Bardstown, and I need another plate of that ham.

The Buffalo Board of Education Wednesday night struck back at a parents group whose leaders it fears are supporting candidates against board members – and believes it has the legal grounds to do so.
Also on Wednesday, the Buffalo Teachers Federation overwhelmingly approved the Annual Professional Performance Review, a teacher evaluation process previously approved by the state Education Department, at its council of delegates meeting. The school district had stood to lose between $30 million and $50 million in state aid and grants if the agreement was not approved.
At the board's Executive Affairs Committee meeting, board member Ralph Hernandez, one of the candidates who could face a challenger who favors positions more in alignment with leaders of the District Parents Coordinating Council, asked for a legal opinion and received one he was hoping for.
"It's the opinion of the Office of Legal Counsel for Buffalo Public Schools that the DPCC as a group promulgated by the Buffalo Board of Education should not, as a group or as the DPCC, be sponsoring any candidate for the upcoming elections. It's inherently a conflict of interest," said Nate Kuzma, assistant legal counsel.
Some leaders of the DPCC, which is a subcommittee of the board and is led by Samuel L. Radford III, have said they would favor any candidate who supports a "parents agenda," which includes support for community schools and teacher residency requirements.
Several of the board members weren't shy in expressing their desire to punish the DPCC.
"We have to be careful how this is portrayed, but at the end of the day, Sam Radford has been allowed to be a loose cannon," said Sharon Belton-Cottman. "One parent came up to me to say they don't have a voice because [Radford's] opinions are forced on them. Many are intimidated by him. I think that is a concern for all of the parents in this district."
Jason McCarthy also said he'd heard from parents who said they felt Radford had "hijacked the group."
Mary Ruth Kapsiak suggested the board's Ethics Committee be tasked with examining DPCC's involvement in School Board electoral politics. Radford said later, in response, that the School Board had it wrong. "The DPCC as an organization has already taken the position that we will not endorse any candidates. We have to work with whoever is elected, so it doesn't make sense for us to alienate any particular candidate by endorsing them as the DPCC. It's not our place to do that," he said.
Philip Rumore, president of the Buffalo Teachers Federation, said the union vote on teacher evaluations was done without enthusiasm. "It was done begrudgingly, because teachers do not like being evaluated based on student standardized tests that don't measure creativity, critical thinking and that traumatize many of our students," he said.

Haley Austin Leads T&F On Final Day Of MACs

Rated 4.1 out of 5 by 617 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Coral9 Great place to stay :) excellent place to stay August 8, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by KeithBUK Great staff! The staff here were great. Room clean and comfortable. Free water and wifi are also plus points. Good location for Times Square and subway - only downside is that it is near the port authority bus terminal and there are quite a few shady looking characters hanging around the end of the street at night (and it's a bit dirty) although having said that we had no problem with them at all. I would stay here again. August 7, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by vp1234 Location, location This is a great location just a little off from all the activity. Rooms are small but it is NYC , very comfortable. Staff is very helpful! Loved stay here and this is our second time to stay in NYC and both times this was our location. Getting use to this place and the surroundings August 7, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by TandB2014 Good Times Square alternate Good hotel as an alternate to being directly located in Times Square (3-4 blocks away). Nice updated bathrooms, friendly & helpful staff and a great perk of free access to sky bar next door on the 38th floor. Bed was superb, however air conditioner is old school and a bit noisy. August 6, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Robbie74 Another Great Stay If you are looking for a great place in NYC that is centrally located to times Square then this is it! The staff is the best at any NYC hotel. It starts from management down, as Mr. Turano is there to greet guests upon check in and make a personable connection to ensure high quality customer service. If you want to feel like a guest and not just another occupancy number, then stay here! It is the only place we will stay when we visit NYC. August 5, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by benpenn NYC weekend The hotel staff was great and in general the hotel is fine. It is not in Time square and the bathrooms are terribly small with no place to put personal items. The A/C units are a bit noisy thus the 3 star for room comfort. Staff was terrific. August 4, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by alkam Great Location and Hotel Stayed for two nights. Loved the hotel. the location, staff, hotel cleanliness, and service. The only issue is car and parking. Valet service does not offer much and its better to find your own parking. August 4, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by gail100 Best place ever! This is an awesome hotel, From the moment we walked into the door, to the moment we had to leave, the service was outstanding. I would especially like to mention Katilia (sp) for being a wonderful hostess at checkin. We wil be returning here on every Broadway show trip in the future August 4, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by BBALLER54 Not as nice as expected. Location was not too bad. Only problem being that there's a parole office almost right next door to the building. Encountering them every morning on our way out was not pleasant. First room that we were provided on the 28th floor smelled like bad foot odor. We had to be moved to a different room on the 20th. The smell was still there but less pungent. Upon returning to our room the following evening, one of the staff members left the window open, cranked-up the air conditioning and there were flies in our room. Bad odor was gone but we had unwanted extra guests in our room. August 4, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by PhilipW JUST WHAT WE NEDED Travelling with 4 teenagers was never going to be easy but our recent stay ticked all the boxes for everyone and we had a great holiday in NYC. The hotel staff (including the housekeeping ladies working behind the scenes) were cheery, polite, courteous and extremely helpful at all times, so thank you to all the staff for making our holiday "happen". August 4, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by md20685 Worthwhile Staying in the city can be stressful when traveling with kids. Having a late check out made all the difference on the last day of our trip. Being able to see sites in the city and THEN relax in our hotel room, made our memory of the trip a positive one. The staff was completely friendly, even with the busy reception area. They even went beyond the call of duty to help get a toy purchased work. We definitely would stay here again. August 4, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by MiGang Superior Staff Of all the hotels I have stayed at in NYC, this was the best and by far the friendliest staff. The front desk staff quickly handled my check-in, accommodated any request with a smile and efficiently. Everyone on staff (front desk, housekeeping, bell men etc) acknowledged me and said hello every time I crossed paths with them. I felt welcomed, comfortable and safe. August 4, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Abcd12345 I do not recommend I paid a lot of $$ for this room, ($450) and the shower did not work. That being said, the people who worked there were so nice and helpful. August 4, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by NN22 Well worth the stay The room was spacious for New York City. The staff was very friendly and informative. Just two blocks from Times Square what more can you ask. The location seems a bit scary (behind the port authority) but we had no issues August 4, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Stephen310 Great stay My family and I had a terrific stay. The location was incredibly convenient, and the staff was one of the most helpful I've ever encountered at a hotel -- knowledgeable, patient, energetic, and quick to go the extra mile. We highly recommend this hotel. August 4, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by canuckle Central location for modest price Stayed one night and enjoyed my stay for the most part. I requested and received a quieter room facing downtown. Despite being in the middle of NYC, the noise was minimal. The room is your standard 4Pts but consistency in the chain at affordable prices is an important part of the chain. The breakfast at the restaurant was very enjoyable and staff very friendly (in fact most of the staff were cheerful and helpful). The only downfall of the hotel was the bar. They were advertising World Cup and to watch it there (the final match was on and began at 4pm). The bar did not open until 5pm and the setup took another 30 minutes (close to the end of matchplay). The selection at the bar was also pretty poor since 4Pts campaigns Best Brews promotes craft brews. What was on tap was minimal. Further, the bartender said the beer was warm, not cooled. Some beers are good at room temp, but most like their Brooklyn Brewery beer should be served at temps in their 40s. While the overall stay was very good, the hotel should reconsider their bar setup. August 3, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Erhardt needs Improvement Generally the hotel is OK. Public spaces are clean. Staff is very friendly and helpful. The room is very small...the smallest that I ever stayed in. I also did not like the shower. Water spills all over the bathroom floor making it slippery and dangerous. For these resons, I cannot recomment this hotel. August 2, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by tszipi I have at this hotel 3 times I love the location near many attractions in NY August 1, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by RodgerH Fine tuning Stay overall was good. Shower curtain liner smelly and needed to be laundered. Mentioned recycling at checkout and was informed that the pretty black plastic wastebasket was for recycling. Wish I'd been told that at check in. I'm used to seeing the dark blue recycling baskets. Liked the access to the rooftop lounge next door. July 31, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by pandorama a gem for NYC We came for a few days to play in NYC and were completely happy with the hotel experience, although having stayed here, I would also choose it if I had business nearby. I've stayed elsewhere in the city and it is really hard to find decent hotels for a decent price. The restaurant was fabulous, the coffee was hot and tasty, although it would have been nice if coffee were available all day, not just 'til about noon. Can't say enough great things about the staff--absolutely everyone we encountered was cheerful, friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay here again. July 30, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Nsquare Great location Staff were extremely helpful. Good location and good price for this area. July 29, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Ozarko Affordable and Comfortable The property was excellent for our one night stay. Staff was outstanding in making sure we were provided with all our needs. Exceptional customer service. July 29, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by FALINE "Great location!" room is comfort and the front desk was incredibly friendly and helpful. July 29, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by MNtravler Beyond expectations!! We recently stayed at the Four Points Times Square. I just wanted to e-mail a quick note to let you know what a great experience we had! When we first arrived we were greeted at the front desk by Ariel. She was FANTASTIC!! She welcomed us to the city and helped get our bags stowed since we were a little early for our check in and our room was not ready. Throughout the whole trip Ariel was there as a friendly face and was so nice, helping us by giving us suggestions on what to do and by listening to our fun adventures throughout the day. We are from Minnesota and New York can have a reputation of having rude or rushed people and Ariel was far from either! By the end of the trip we felt like we had made a friend! She is a great addition to your hotel, making us feel welcome and important. New York has thousands of hotels and really when you are on vacation the room itself is really pretty irrelevant as you don't spend much time in it, you should be out enjoying the town, but the staff, especially Ariel, made your hotel stand out from the others! We also loved the cupcakes at check in, what a nice little touch that we really appreciated after traveling all day! Some other little things we appreciated were the fact that there were three elevators so that we didn't have to wait long to get to and from our room. (I had previously stayed in NYC and was at a hotel that only had one elevator and that lead to a long wait to go up or down.) The room was comfortable and the cleaning crew did a great job cleaning our room so every night when we got home from our adventures it was clean and ready for us to get some much needed sleep! I would recommend this hotel to anyone and everyone I know who is traveling to New York on business or for pleasure! Great Job! I had never stayed at a Four Points before, but now that I have, I will definitely be looking them up the next time I go on vacation! Thanks again!! Dawn July 28, 2014

Rated 4 out of 5 by Gbob47 Friendly hotel in the center of the action Attentive and friendly staff, great rooms, and delicious cocktails!

Rated 5 out of 5 by OCguy48 Best Staff Where to begin...My wife and I made our first trip to New York to celebrate our 20th anniversary. We took a red-eye flight and arrived at the hotel early expecting only to drop our bags and start our adventure. Kathia was working the front desk and allowed us to check in early. She also arranged a special celebration of our anniversary later that evening. The room was nice and the bed was very comfortable. When we set out to explore the city, Kathia and all other workers provided maps, circling the areas we were in search of. That helped us every day we were there. Wednesday night we found out there was a BBQ and Brew event, so we stopped by before our Broadway show. Every staff member who was there greeted us with warmness and thanked us for staying there. The Chef's creations were incredible. The little spinach pies were great. Because we had to leave for our show, we didn't get to try the dessert. No worries. The Chef saved us some and sent them up for us after the show. What class. Although I don't remember everyone's name, each time a went through the lobby area, everyone was so friendly and remembered who we were. Those working mornings, afternoon, and late evenings. In all my years of life, and staying at various hotels, the way I was treated here is the highest customer satisfaction I have ever received. I wanted to stay longer, but still had a life to return to, but I know when I return where I will be staying. Thanks for making our trip exceed all expectations. July 26, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Inspector64 Hotel was quiet and close to the action! Had a wonderful time. Staff was efficient, courteous and knowledgeable. Kathia was super. She remembered our needs and took great pains to see that everything we talked about and asked for was carried out quickly and efficiently. Kudos to her for a job above and beyond! July 26, 2014

ERIE - The Curve need a big weekend at Erie if they are to have any shot of getting back in the playoff race, and things did not start out well in the series opener Friday.
The SeaWolves beat Altoona, 6-3, at Jerry Uht Park, scoring four runs in the third inning to take control. The Curve trailed second-place Erie by seven games for the second and final playoff spot in the Western Division entering the night, and this weekend's four-game series provides a big opportunity to cut into that deficit.
Instead, the SeaWolves stretched the lead over Altoona to eight games, and anything short of winning the next three games this weekend would make it highly unlikely the Curve can catch up with only 19 games remaining. The teams play a doubleheader tonight, then one more game Sunday.
The SeaWolves moved into a first-place tie with Harrisburg in the division with their win and the Senators' loss to Portland.
Erie jumped on Curve starter Nate Baker in the third inning, getting a pair of two-RBI hits for a 4-0 cushion. Jamie Johnson singled home the first two runs, and Tyler Collins doubled home two more for the four-run edge.
The SeaWolves went on to make it 6-1 in the sixth before the Curve scored twice. Carlos Paulino had a hand in all three Altoona runs as he went 2-for-2 with two runs, an RBI and a walk.
Fact Box
Covering the bases
LEADING OFF: OF Mel Rojas Jr. had won the previous two games for the Curve with clutch RBI hits, but he didn't have a chance to make it three in a row as he began serving his three-game suspension Friday for his role in last week's brawl against Harrisburg.
SAFE AT FIRST: As Rojas started serving his suspension, INF Drew Maggi and RHP Luis Sanz returned to action after serving their three-game suspensions at home against Portland.
STEALING SECOND: The Curve lost Friday, 6-3, but had an impressive four outfield assists against Erie. LF/CF Andy Vasquez had two, while CF Gregory Polanco and RF Alex Dickerson had one apiece.
ROUNDING THIRD: U Oscar Tejeda went on the DL Friday with a right ankle injury, while C Ali Solis rejoined the Curve from Triple-A Indianapolis. INF Kelson Brown went on the DL Thursday, retroactive to Tuesday, and RHP Tyler Waldron was promoted from high-A Bradenton. Waldron missed most of the season with a shoulder injury.
HEADING HOME: Pitching coach Stan Kyles was ejected during the ninth inning Friday night for arguing balls and strikes.
- Cory Giger
Baker (3-2) allowed five runs on 10 hits in five innings for the loss. He has had no success this season against Erie, posting a 10.80 ERA in six games (one start).
SeaWolves reliever Ryan Robowski (4-2) picked up the win after starter Drew VerHagen lasted just four innings, giving up no runs on two hits. Justin Souza worked the ninth to earn his 16th save.
Game recap
Key player: Erie RF Jamie Johnson went 2-for-4 with three RBIs.
Key play: Johnson's two-run single and a two-run double by LF Tyler Collins gave Erie a 4-0 lead in the third inning.
Key stat: Erie and Harrisburg are in a good battle in the Western Division as they are tied for first place after Friday's action.
How they scored
Bottom 3rd: Douglas singled, Robbins singled, both scored on Johnson single (0-2); Fields singled, Cabrera singled, both scored on Collins double (0-4).
Bottom 4th: McCann solo homer (0-5).
Top 5th: Paulino walked, scored on Santos sacrifice fly (1-5).
Bottom 6th: McCann singled, scored on Johnson single (1-6).
Top 7th: Paulino hit by pitch, scored on Robowski wild pitch (2-6).
Top 8th: Howard hit by pitch, scored on Paulino single (3-6).

Epitope mapping is taking the spotlight in the race to develop new therapeutic monoclonal antibodies, a market expected to reach $33 billion by 2010. Identification and characterization of an epitope is key to this development process, as well as for vaccine design and mapping ligand binding sites in receptors using mAbs. A more recent application involves protecting the epitope from competitors, since the data is often used in patent filings. ExSAR's (www.exsar.com) mass spectrometry platform, H/D-Ex (amide hydrogen/deuterium exchange MS), was originally developed at the University of California, San Diego. It was later enhanced with automated sample handling and software to generate reproducible measures of amide proton-exchange rates. Differences in the rate of exchange serve to highlight the epitope location. "What makes this unique is that it's widely applicable, with medium resolution and throughput for protein characterization," says Yoshi Hamuro, Ph.D., senior director of technical development. A protein is mixed with deuterated buffer and incubated, at which time backbone amide hydrogens exchange with bulk solvent deuterons. The exchange rate of each backbone amide hydrogen is unique to its environment. After incubation, the exchange reaction is quenched by shifting the pH to 2 and lowering the temperature to 0°C. The exchanged protein is then proteolyzed with proteases. Peptic fragments are chromatographically separated and their mass determined by MS. The experiment is repeated in the absence of deuterium, and the molecular weight difference of identical fragments attributed to deuteration. A deuteration build-up curve allows the rate of exchange to be calculated.This is accomplished by exposing the protein to deuterated solvent over increasing time periods. Resulting data curves are generated by plotting deuteration levels as a function of on-exchange time. Since deuteration trends can be difficult when looking at more than 30 curves, the company assigns different colors—red signifies highly deuterated and blue, not highly deuterated. The deuterated levels of various sequence segments are represented in the appropriate color and plotted beneath the corresponding sequence.
Currently, the most popular H/D-Ex application is epitope mapping. This process involves separation of the antigen, then on-solution exchange experiments with the antigen by itself to determine the best time frame for on-/off-solution column exchange. The antibody is immobilized, and the binding capacity of the column against the antigen is determined. Then an on-/off-solution column exchange experiment is conducted to determine the antibody binding site. "Although most peptic fragments carry almost no deuterium atoms, there are a few peptic fragments that carry some deuterium atoms after the process," Dr. Hamuro says. These segments are considered the H/D exchange identified binding site. The resolution of information is limited by the size of the peptic fragments generated by proteolysis— usually 5–15 amino acid-residues long. Although x-ray crystallography is considered the gold standard for epitope mapping and provides high resolution, it remains technically challenging. Other methods, such as phage display, overlapping peptides, and limited proteolysis, provide high throughput but lack reliability, especially for conformational epitopes. "H/D-Ex is compatible with these and has been used to create many conformational eptitope maps," adds Dr. Hamuro. These epitopes have more than one segment of the antigen sequence interacting with the antibody. The vast majority of antigen-antibody interactions have confirmational epitopes. The platform was recently used to identify the epitope of a neutralizing antibody to IL-17 A, a cytokine involved in several proinflammatory signaling pathways. The epitope was then validated via x-ray crystallography. Some limitations to H/D-Ex include heavily glycosylated proteins in which it may be difficult to identify glycosylated peptides after digestion, and heavily di-sulfide-bonded proteins, which are difficult to digest and make it difficult to identify peptic fragments. Also, proteins larger than 100 kDa may have reduced sequence coverage.
The platform's drug discovery applications include ligand binding-site identification, binding-site and pharmacology correlations (full agonist vs. partial antagonist), and enabling fragment-based drug discovery strategies in the absence of ligand-bound x-ray structures.
A biogeneric that has a different formulation or manufacturing process is suspected of being nonbioequivalent to the original. According to the company, H/D-Ex is able to detect subtle changes in protein structure within a few days. It recently identified a lot-to-lot difference in the protein dynamics of an antigen used by a client to generate therapeutic neutralizing antibodies.
A 20-residue region showed a differential rate of amide-hydrogen exchange in one of the lots. The lots were supposed to have exactly the same protein and the same manufacturing. The client expressed concern about unspecified modification and wanted additional data on equivalence. A difference was detected in hydrogen exchange rates, indicating a structure that had been compromised or changed.
Dr. Hamuro says that some of the future applications of the platform include epitope mapping of patients' polyclonal antibodies against protein therapeutics when immunogenicity is observed. Another large potential area is the study of membrane protein-ligand interactions. "These are difficult to work with and we are just starting to see a few examples of using the H/D-Ex data with membrane proteins."
In addition, the company sees opportunities for its technology in the biosimilars arena. "Our technology can be helpful to develop biosimilars when we want to see a direct comparison to the original," Robert Johnston, president and CEO says.

Ciproral Money contributions to a Puggle rescue are always a great way to help volunteers with expenses and make a difference in a Puggle's world. Ciproral So many rescued dogs are in need of Vet care, ciproral and all require the basic necessities of life – food, ciproral water and shelter – all of which costs money.
Ciproral Although you may wish you could do more for a rescue aside from donating money, ciproral understand that providing such funds are greatly appreciated by the rescue. Ciproral Every donation made to a good animal rescue goes toward caring for the dogs, ciproral and helping them find new loving homes.
Ciproral However, ciproral did you know that you might be able to double the funds you donate to the Puggle rescue? Many employers will actually match charitable donations made by their employees. Ciproral This doesn't only mean matching money you may have donated, ciproral but also if you sponsor or adopt a dog.
Ciproral This particular type of unique charitable donation matching is known as a Corporate Matching Gift program. Ciproral Most companies who participate in this program will match dollar for dollar when it comes to the charitable contribution made by their employee.
Ciproral Of course, ciproral not every company will offer the corporate matching gift program, ciproral so you will need to find out if your's does. Ciproral To learn if the business you work for is involved in the program, ciproral contact your employer's Personal Department or Human Resources to find out more. Ciproral If you discover that the company you work for does offer this charity program, ciproral simply ask for the proper form so you can fill it out and have you donation matched. Ciproral If they don't offer the program, ciproral there's no harm in asking them if they would be interested in doing so.
Ciproral Aside from corporate matching gifts (or if the business you work for doesn't provide this option), ciproral there is nothing wrong with asking your fellow co-workers if they would be interested in making a small donation to the Puggle Rescue with you. Ciproral Remember, ciproral every little bit helps, ciproral and there is no harm in asking. Ciproral Just make sure you don't hassle those who aren't interested. Ciproral A donation is a gift from the heart, ciproral it shouldn't be forced.

40 Years Ago: Genesis Release 'Selling England by the Pound'
In order to assemble an album that became one of their earliest classics, Genesis had to succeed in balancing the pastoral whimsy of their first couple of albums with the rock pretensions of their most recent work, 'Foxtrot.' With 1973's 'Selling England by the Pound,' they did just that.
There's a slew of literary allusions here (TS Eliot in 'The Cinema Show,' Tolkein in 'The Battle of Epping Forest'), but there's also the almost glam-rock propulsion of 'I Know What I Like (In Your Wardrobe).' And the literary references are apt, since 'Selling England" might be best described as an anthology of short stories, loosely interwoven but separate rather than a true concept album. Unlike their subsequent double-album opus 'The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway,' which marked the end of group's iconic five-man lineup, each of the songs here works both together and of a piece.
If commentary like 'Dancing With the Moonlit Knight' was a touch too insular in its focus on modern English life, and the puns sometimes a bit over the top ("he employed me as a karmacanic"), it's all counterbalanced by a group performing at its musical zenith. Check out Steve Hackett's stunning solo on 'Firth of Fifth,' Phil Collins' jazz-inflected cadences throughout.
While Tony Banks' underrated keyboard work (notably in 'The Cinema Show') remains the album's other principal voicing, Mike Rutherford's bass begins to take on a more prominent role as well. Peter Gabriel is at his narrative best in 'Epping Forest,' Hackett gets another tasteful feature in 'After the Ordeal' and there's even a hint of what's to come with the darkly emotional Collins vocal feature 'More Fool Me.'
All of this gives 'Selling England' a layered complexity and an uncommon accessibility, even as it brings together all of the many disparate elements that made Genesis such a force. At least for the time being.

Space for Cycling guide sets out what Councillors need to do
We've tried to make the guide as simple as possible, using photos, including the lovely image of one of LCC's Space for Cycling rides last year, taken by Jim Killock.
The guide features photos of good practice from Bristol, Exeter, Brighton and other places, including, of course the Netherlands.
We've also maintained the emphasis that Space for Cycling means high quality routes, not just pavements converted to shared use.
Several of the schemes pictured are examples of the latest thinking in good cycle infrastructure design, including the Old Shoreham Way route in Brighton and the Royal College Street cycle lanes in Camden.
The guide also gives details on where funding can come from and the ambitions for securing substantially more funding from central Government in the future.
Where does the campaign come from?
The Space for Cycling campaign was originally created by the London Cycling Campaign (LCC). LCC's campaign in London is focussed on lobbying candidates in this year's London borough elections.
CTC is taking LCC's London-born campaign nationwide, working together with the Cyclenation federation of local campaign groups, with generous funding from the cycle industry's 'Bike Hub' levy, run by the Bicycle Association. Read more about the background to the Space for Cycling campaign.
You can download a copy of the guide here, and write to your Councillors in just two minutes using CTC's suggested letter.

Outside the Mercer Kitchen in N.Y.C.'s SoHo area, Prinsloo, 24, was spotted having a cigarette and showing off her new ring – seen for the first time since she said "yes" to Adam Levine, 34, last weekend in Los Angeles.
Thursday morning the Victoria's Secret stunner told ET Canada that the ring is "perfect!"
"It's from the 1930s," she explained to Extra. "He called my dad, he was a stand up guy, called my mom, he did the whole thing."
"I am so happy and excited and still can't believe it's true!" she tells ET Canada, adding romantic details on how Levine popped the question. "It was a one-knee thing! It was serious, it was very old school."
As for wedding planning, the couple haven't started and are "just celebrating with our friends and family at the moment."

The end of an era begins tonight in Cowboys Stadium. Tonight, the final Big 12 Championship will be contested between the North Division champion Nebraska Cornhuskers and the South Division champion Oklahoma Sooners. The winner will earn the conference's automatic BCS berth and will play in the Fiesta Bowl on January 1, 2011.
It is truly fitting that the conference will end with the final conference meeting between Nebraska and Oklahoma, a series that helped define college football in the 1970's and 1980's. The Sooners will be looking to avenge their 10-3 loss in Lincoln last year, while Nebraska will be looking to avenge their loss in the 2006 Big 12 Championship game.
Of course, there is the underlying soap opera of Nebraska's contentious departure from the conference, and the belief by some Nebraska fans that there is a conspiracy on behalf of the conference to ensure the 'Huskers do not win the final conference title.
As a service to you, the reader, I will keep an eye on the Conspiracy Meter during the game. If there looks to be evidence of skullduggery, I will alert you by raising the Conspiracy Meter from green, to yellow, to orange, and to red if need be.
So, sit back and enjoy your nostalgia, your drama, and your football all wrapped into one!

Things started out well enough for the Summerville Hockey Club Dec. 21 but down the stretch Greenville South proved to be too much for the Green Wave.
Nick Wieszkowiak scored with an assist from Lee Winter inside the first two minutes of the game. Then the G-Force scored three straight goals to take a 3-1 lead into the second period.
Summerville created scoring opportunities and got off some nice shots in the second frame, but the Greenville South defense was tight around the goal and the G-Force added two more scores in the period.
Summerville did find the net in the final minute of the period with a hard shot by Winter from the left side of the goal. Jonathan Dashnaw had an assist on the play, which cut the G-Force lead to 5-2 entering the final period.
In the final 15 minutes, Greenville South ran away with the contest to finish with a 10-2 victory. The G-Force improved to 5-2-1 on the season with the win. Summerville fell to 1-8 with the loss.
Summerville has a bye this week but will return to the ice Jan. 11 to face Lexington. The game is scheduled for 8 p.m. at the Carolina Ice Palace.

The do's and don'ts of IT volunteering
22 December 2006
by Cara Garretson
With the holiday season upon us and New Year's resolutions just around the corner, the idea of giving back has probably crossed many minds. There are a number of significant ways that IT professionals can help nonprofit organizations, be it with the homeless shelter around the corner or with relief groups across the globe.
Here are some suggestions and advice to get you started.
DON'T . . . donate old hardware or software. Whether it's your 3-year-old laptop or the fleet of old desktops that your company is swapping out, material donations often end up more of a curse than a blessing.
"You're making space in your house or office and saying, 'This [PC] is below our standard to use,' so you're going to give it away and hope that the people at the food bank are really happy to get it?" asks Jeffrey Forster, technical services director with Robert Morris University's Bayer Center for Nonprofit Management in Pittsburgh.
While these donations are made with good intentions, most nonprofits don't have the technical staff to get the old equipment into shape, harvest them for parts or provide support, Forster says. Still, such donations are an ongoing practice; the Bayer Center surveyed 285 nonprofit organizations and found more than 40 percent have at least some donated computers.
Instead, Forster suggests that individuals or companies looking to make good use of old equipment donate to an organization that will refurbish the computer, such as Goodwill, which then passes on the PC or the proceeds from its sale to nonprofits. Or contact your city's recycling center to find out how to dispose of a PC in a manner that is earth-friendly.
DO . . . donate your talent. Depending on your specialty, you could offer to build a database, manage an e-mail fund-raising campaign, train someone in Excel, upgrade an operating system or become an organization's Webmaster.
"There are opportunities to just pitch in for an hour, or to get involved many hours every week," says Jason Willett, director of communications with VolunteerMatch.org, a Web site that pairs up potential volunteers with nonprofits in need of help.
DO . . .consider local options first. While there plenty of opportunities for virtual work, many nonprofits prefer to have their volunteers close by.
"We like [volunteers] to be local, because we find they stay more committed," says Carmel Sullivan, executive director of CoAbode.com, a Web site that helps single mothers and their children find opportunities to share housing and pool resources. "If people contact us from more than 20 minutes away, we discourage them. Who wants to commute over an hour?"
BUT DON'T . . . exclude volunteering virtually, if there's an organization whose work interests you but isn't close by. A quick search on VolunteerMatch.org for virtual opportunities pulled up 1,945 listings, including Web site designer, eBay expert and MySQL developer.
DO . . . decide upfront how much of your time you can contribute and stick to it.
Most organizations don't ask specifically for a certain number of hours per week for a set period. Many find it difficult to be anything other than gracious to a potential volunteer, but in the end the organization would benefit from setting guidelines up front as well.
Community Empowerment Network, which assists communities in rural areas of developing countries to gain the skills and resources needed to manage their own development by providing communication and IT resources, is heavily dependent on technology to help fulfill its mission. Founder Bob Bortner, who left Microsoft two years ago to launch the organization, says about one-fourth of the group's volunteer staff focuses on technology. That means he feels the pain when losing an IT-savvy volunteer.
"There's a lot of turnover; you just get someone who is really good, and something in their life changes. Generally, I'm the lower priority," says Bortner, adding that such is the nature of volunteering. "One guy's house burned," Bortner says, so the volunteer had no choice but to bow out of the project.
DON'T . . .just think of your technical skills when considering volunteering. Many nonprofits need business advice; learning how to align technology with their mission or use technology to lower costs or increase effectiveness.
"One way to make a difference is to join the board [of directors] of a nonprofit," says Bayer Center's Forster, with the warning that you'll likely end up the de facto chair of the technology committee. "There is a severe shortage of technology awareness in board decision making among nonprofits. And there's a strong correlation between the presence of a board member on a technology committee and technology best practices" being implemented by the nonprofit.
DO . . . investigate if your company would be willing to form a volunteer corps around technology. Organizations such as volunteermatch.org and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce offer information on getting corporations involved with nonprofits.

New Bank Trojan Virus Steals Money
|Email Print
Finjan, an internet security firm, has discovered a new Trojan horse virus that steals money from your account. Your typical phishing or virus will steal your login credentials and send it to a thief, who either sells it or empties your account. This new virus, called URLZone, will steal your credentials but also steal money from your account, all the while displaying a fake balance when you login. How much it steals depends on your much is available, it only steals enough not to trigger a bank's fraud detection systems.
At the moment, URLZone can only infect Windows systems using Firefox, Internet Explorer 6, 7 & 8, or Opera web browsers. Computers are infected when you open an e-mail, click on a website distributing malware, or visit an infected website using one of those browsers. When you visit a targeted bank, and it's thus far been limited to German banks, the trojan transfers money without you even knowing.
This is the first Trojan Finjan has come across that hijacks a victim's browser session, steals the money while the victim is doing online banking, and then covers its tracks by modifying information displayed to the victim, all in real time, Ben-Itzhak [chief technology officer at Finjan] said.
This is scary.

There's a strange feeling surrounding the 20th World Cup which opens Thursday in Brazil. As the world has gotten smaller thanks to the Internet, the language of the beautiful game has nearly taken on a life of its own and the cultural borders which used to define playing styles have all but disappeared.
The host country knows this all too well. The samba style that won the world over in the era of Pele and other greats, has been replaced by tried and true (and much less exciting) methods which you see in the elite leagues across Europe.
Brazil is the favorite to win its sixth World Cup just by the very nature of the enormous benefit playing at home gives host countries at the World Cup (we saw this here when USA over-achieved at the 1994 cup). But a sense of unease has settled in there and it has nothing to do with the play of the national team.
Protests over the massive amounts of money spent on stadiums and infrastructure have become fairly commonplace across Brazil over the last year or so and it's likely to fire up again once festivities start. The laundry list of FIFA corruption charges is too long to address here, but this tournament could be a turning point in how bidding processes for such events as the Olympics and World Cup are perceived.
The USA, for instance, will play its second game against Portugal in a 42,000-capacity stadium in the middle of the Amazon jungle which will likely serve no further purpose after the World Cup.
Here's some thoughts and tidbits about the tournament:
USA'S CHANCES: The draw didn't do the USA any favors and pessimism has surrounded the team for months now. You can look at what Ghana, Portugal and Germany have on paper and come to the conclusion that it will be a short business trip (wait that's not entirely right... the USA will travel the most miles out of any team at the World Cup) for the national team.
Ghana and USA are listed as 6-5 co-favorites to be at the bottom of Group G. USA's chances of winning the group are 15-1 and 7-2 to finish second.
ODDS DON'T MATTER (MAYBE): The World Cup group stage is such a brief series of three games that a fluke goal here or there can throw everything out of whack. The best thing the USA has going for it is it has its most manageable opponent first. A win over Ghana would put immense pressure on whoever loses or draws Portugal-Germany and that would be a blessing for the USA. A loss or draw against Ghana, however, would be dire.
OHIO CONNECTION: Former University of Akron defender DeAndre Yedlin is in Brazil with the United States team. Yedlin, a Seattle native, played in 2011 and 2012 for the Zips before being signed by Major League Soccer's Seattle Sounders. He wears No. 2.
LOCAL CONNECTIONS (SORT OF): East Liverpool's sister city Stoke-on-Trent in England boasts an improving English Premier League team in Stoke City and four of those players will be in Brazil for the World Cup.
Goalkeeper Asmir Begovic (Bosnia and Herzegovina), defender Geoff Cameron (USA), winger Peter Odemwingie (Nigeria) and midfielder Wilson Palacios (Honduras) all should see some playing time in the group stages.
TV THOUGHTS: The ESPN family of networks will be carry all of the games and unfortunately the brass at ESPN have deemed it unnecessary to show the U.S. national team's games on ABC (other countries have rules that state all national team games must be available on over-the-air TV, not so here). What ABC will show will be such illustrious matchups as Greece-Colombia, Uruguay-Costa Rica, Switzerland-Ecuador, France-Honduras, Russia-Belguim and South Korea-Algeria. Go figure.
WHERE TO WATCH WITH OTHERS: Collective experiences watching the World Cup on TV have become popular in recent years (see the Landon Donovan goal reaction video vs. Algeria from the last World Cup) and some of these watch parties are making it closer to this area.
The Youngstown chapter of the American Outlaws (national U.S. soccer fan club) will be coordinating events for the USA matches at O'Donald's Pub in downtown Youngstown. For those of you closer to Pittsburgh, the Steel City American Outlaws will host watch parties at Claddagh Irish Pub on the South Side and Latitude 360 just south of the airport. Check Twitter and Facebook for more details.
PREDICTIONS: USA will finish third in its group. The rest of the CONCACAF region including Mexico, Honduras and Costa Rica will also struggle to get anything. I'd like to say Brazil will win (and they likely will), but I'll go with Italy as the surprise winner.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - The Stetson men's basketball team (11-14, 8-6) clinched a berth into the Atlantic Sun Conference Tournament for the first time since 2008-09, defeating Lipscomb (9-15, 4-9) 76-66 on Thursday night. Senior Adam Pegg led the Hatters with 23 points and 12 rebounds for his fourth double-double of the season.
"It's a great step," Stetson head coach Casey Alexander said after the game. "There are a lot of steps we still have to climb, but I'm proud of these guys for accomplishing that. The goal from this point forward is to keep climbing, put ourselves in the best seed we can get, and give ourselves the best chance to win."
The first half was similar to the past few games for Stetson. The Hatters were unable to take care of the ball, turning it over 13 times in the first 20 minutes, and when Stetson was able to get a shot off, the team wasn't efficient in doing so. The Hatters shot just 10-of-28 (35.7%) from the floor in the first frame.
After an extremely slow start, Stetson used a 7-0 run to tie the game at 14-14 with 9:36 to play. A driving layin by senior Joel Naburgs, a three by senior Liam McInerney, and a short two by junior Willie Green got Stetson back into the game.
Shortly thereafter Lipscomb rattled off 13 straight points to take a 29-18 advantage with 3:13 remaining in the period. The Hatters were able to cut into the deficit with a post layup by Pegg and a triple by junior Chris Perez, but the Bisons went into the break with a 34-26 advantage.
"The first 20 minutes were practically unacceptable," Alexander said. "It's mind boggling that we can show up at this stage in the season, with so much to play for, and not have an edge about [us]...just really not be excited about being out there. When that happens, and you're not playing well to begin with, the problem just compounds itself."
The second half was a different story from the first whistle. Green scored the first basket of the frame, capitalizing on a pair of offensive rebounds, and the Hatters were off and running from there. Stetson scored the first nine points of the half, as a pair of jumpers by Pegg and a three by Perez gave the Hatters a 35-34 lead, their first since midway through the first half.
Stetson continued to pour it in offensively, while getting defensive stop after defensive stop, eventually outscoring the Bisons 22-4 through the first 10:10 of the half. Thanks to nine points by Pegg within the first four minutes of the frame alone, the Hatters took a 48-38 lead midway through the second period.
"One helps the other," Alexander said of the Hatters' quality play on the court and their energy on the sidelines. "The first possession [of the half] Willie has two offensive rebounds, sticks one back in, and that energizes the guys on the bench. It runs its way all the way through the team in the same way that the negatives did in the first half."
Lipscomb fought back, closing its deficit to just four points on a layup by Deonte Alexander that made it 60-56 with 4:19 to play. A dunk off of an inbounds play from Green quickly countered, as the two teams traded baskets for a couple minutes.
Free throws by junior Hunter Miller, Naburgs, and junior Aaron Graham, as well as another bucket by Pegg allowed the Hatters to once again balloon their lead back up to 11 points, at 70-59, with 37 second to play. It was a 6-0 run that included four consecutive defensive stops for Stetson, and the Hatters held on for the 76-66 victory.
The Hatters turned the ball over only five times in the second half, and shot 15-of-29 (51.7%) from the floor. Stetson's 27 free throw attempts were the third most for the Hatters on the year, as were the 19 makes from the charity stripe.
Pegg's 23 points and 12 rebounds led the Hatters, marking his fourth double-double of the season, and the 20th straight game in double figures. Perez added 17 points, while Graham chipped in with 11 on 6-of-7 from the line. Green finished with eight points and 11 rebounds, his fifth game this season in double figures on the glass.
Lipscomb was led by Alexander's 21 points, while Stephen Hurt chipped in with 12 points and five rebounds. J.J. Butler recorded a game high seven assists in the defeat.
Stetson will next travel up to Highland Heights to play at Northern Kentucky on Saturday, Feb. 16. The Hatters and the Norse are scheduled to tip off at 7:00 p.m. on ASun.TV and HatterVision.

The epitamy of all flash sites. Originally started in 1996 by Tom Fulp, the site was originally made to showcase his work. These include: FDA, Tellytubbie funland, and Pico, among others. The site later grew, and in it's growth needed more people to help run it. Tom's brother Wade joined, and other programmers and administrators have since come in and gone out. The site has since become a place where anyone can submit flash. Currently, it also includes an audio portal, where musicians can submit music which flash artists can use in their flash for free. Also, it has a bbs, which is a great asset to the site. It now includes such internet phenomenons as All Your Base and badger badger badger. It also includes amazingly fantastic series such as Salad fingers, eskimo bob, xombie, xiao xiao, assasin, miss dynamite, Klaymation, and countless others Some authors that have thier own websites, such as Legendaryfrog or Weebl sumbit much of their flash to Newgrounds, in hopes of attaining more people who will visit their website. Some of my favorite authors are: Knox (for his klaymation), legendaryfrog (for basically everything), jotandjab (retarded animal babies), David Firth (salad fingers series, with a few other outside flashes here and there), iwillpress (foamy), and more than i can fit. If you are looking for entertainment on the internet, Newgrounds comes out on top. Because it is constantly growing with hilarious, amazing, or truly innovative flashes (Interactive boogie anyone?), Newgrounds has years worth of entertainment on one free site.

A proposal to grant a seasonal-use permit to a dog-training facility on the Florida Mesa drew a full crowd to the La Plata County Board of County Commissioner�s meeting Tuesday.
Despite pleas from numerous supporters of the kennel club�s efforts, the commissioners voted 2-1 to deny the permit.
The Durango Kennel Club uses parts of the property, including a large metal building owned by Karen and Jim Lewis, to conduct dog obedience, herding and agility training. The Lewises, who are members of the kennel club, also live on the property.
After the barking, traffic and other noise on the property drew complaints from neighbors in August, the county required the Lewises to obtain a seasonal-use permit to operate the trainings on their property during the summer.
In Tuesday�s meeting, commissioners Bobby Lieb and Wally White agreed with county planners� recommendations that the proposed use is not compatible with the surrounding area, which is classified as agricultural or rural residential.
The commissioners had to base their decision on the current land-use code, however imperfect it may be, White said.
�Our code is not what we would consider the best and (neighborhood) compatibility isn�t necessarily the best way to judge land use and land-use planning,� White said. �But unfortunately that�s what we have.�
Audience members who spoke in support of the seasonal-use permit said it would be close to impossible for the Durango Kennel Club to find another facility for dog training.
They also named numerous community services the club provides, including efforts to teach children about good dog ownership and help rescue dogs.
Neighbors said the volume of car traffic, dogs and people on the Lewis� property has increased through the years, significantly affecting their quality of life.
�The noise, traffic and activity generated has prevented neighbors from being outside on their own property,� said Anita Hermosillo, who lives next door to the Lewis property. �For me, it was like living next to a circus, a parking lot and campground all in one.�
