The massive snow storm that slammed the upper Midwest has been blamed for at least 16 deaths -- and it's not over yet.
The slow-moving system has been crawling across Minnesota and Wisconsin, where it dumped nearly 2 feet of snow before moving on to Michigan and Indiana.
On Monday, more than 100 vehicles were stuck on snow-covered highways in Indiana. By Monday night, all of the motorists had been rescued.
"It was a whiteout. It was like a tornado of snow," driver Kate Ergang said.
"I'm still stuck because you can't go east, west, north, south. Even though I can move, I can't go any where," said Joe Wurl, a truck driver.
Bone-chilling arctic air has swept in behind the storm. The storm continued its trek northeast early Tuesday over the Great Lakes and into Canada. More snow was possible for parts of Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York on Tuesday.
The frigid weather has also threatened crops across the South, where hard freeze warnings were in effect overnight in several states.

At the meeting, Thermo Scientific featured its Nunclon™ Vita™ energy-treated polystyrene surface for the growth and expansion of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) or induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) without the need for feeder cells or extracellular matrix.
The company uses energetic oxidation to induce a chemical reaction in the polystyrene polymer that creates functional groups onto which hESCs can attach and form colonies. A patent-pending method that combines the Nunclon Vita surface and conditioned media containing the Rho-associated kinase inhibitor Y27632 allows for the growth of hESCs for >10 passages and of iPSCs for >3 passages without differentiation or karyotype changes, according to Thermo.
U.K.-based Angel Biotechnology, which specializes in GMP manufacturing of cell therapies including stem cells, viruses, antibodies, and recombinant proteins, recently announced a new GMP manufacturing contract and a five-year pricing agreement with Russian pharmaceutical company Materia Medica. Angel plans to increase its manufacturing capacity by at least fivefold.
CaridianBCT launched the Quantum Cell Expansion System, an automated, closed system that supports the growth of adherent and suspension cells in a hollow fiber bioreactor. Cell loading, media exchange, and cell harvesting are all automated. The seven-minute harvesting step can reportedly yield 0.5–1 billion cells.
Later this year, Miltenyi Biotec will introduce the CliniMACS® Prodigy integrated cell-processing system. The customized system can process cells from blood or bone marrow, carrying out all operations—from cell washing and density gradient separation to MACS® cell separation and cell harvesting—in a closed environment.
The Automation Partnership (TAP) designed the CellBase CT cell-expansion system to meet the needs of companies transitioning autologous cell-therapy products from manual to automated processing under GMP conditions to produce quantities needed for clinical and commercial development. The system can maintain up to 90 T flasks under temperature and CO2 control, and provides noncontact media dispensing and flask-to-flask transfer, automated cell count and cell viability analysis, confluence measurements, and barcoding for sample tracking.
ReGenX highlighted its recombinant adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector technology for tissue-targeted in vivo gene delivery. The technology can be used to overexpress a gene or inhibit gene expression or activity. Applications include creating animal models of disease and screening therapeutic proteins in vivo. Specific AAV serotypes allow for gene transfer to targeted tissues including heart, retina, brain, lung, pancreas, liver, and skeletal muscle.
Eufets provides product-development services for cell and gene therapies including process development and scale-up, cGMP contract manufacturing, assay development, quality control, preclinical studies, and regulatory support.
Advaxis is pursuing multiple Phase II trials in cervical cancer and head and neck cancer for its live-attenuated Listeria monocytogenes vaccines targeting human papilloma virus. The company also has Listeria monocytogenes therapeutic vaccines in clinical studies in breast and prostate cancer and in glioma. The vaccines contain the Listeria monocytogenes virulence factor listeriolysin O, a protein that stimulates an innate immune response and a cytokine response that enhances the function of antigen-presenting cells.

The exceptions are Armand Assante as an imprisoned mob boss ordering hits from behind bars; and Stacy Keach, in what amounts to a cameo, as a retired cop.
And yet Frank Vincent, Mike Starr, Kathrine Narducci and others in "Chicago Overcoat" have built solid careers. These character and supporting actors, often typecast as Italian-Americans on the wrong side of the law, personify life off the A list. They're not stars getting profiled on that contradiction in terms, entertainment news.
Yet their presences on the periphery have enhanced such movies as "Raging Bull," "Casino," "Goodfellas" and "Dumb and Dumber," and the great television series "The Sopranos." Such performers are an integral part of what makes the machine run. What would a John Wayne Western have been without the likes of Ward Bond and Harry Carey (the guy who taught The Duke to point as he talked)?
With his strong nose and chin that would make his face at home among the statues on Easter Island, Vincent stars as Lou Marazano, a hitman who, when the Chicago underworld was a shooting gallery, was a terror of the Chicago mob.
Now aging, tired, with his reading glasses perched on his nose, Lou's been reduced to ambushing victims from behind as they urinate; he literally catches them with their pants down. He just wants one last piece of the action -- a final big contract -- to secure his retirement and salvage his relationship with his grandson (Robert Gerdisch) and estranged daughter (Gina D'Ercoli).
Not to be confused with a great movie, "Chicago Overcoat" nonetheless has its rewards. West Michiganders should appreciate that it was shot entirely on location in Chicago, across Lake Michigan.
The filmmakers using Lou not only as their protagonist but also a narrator put us on the side of a murderer whose crimes seem justified; Lou does not take out the innocent. Lou's trying to steer his grandson down the right path, though with some suspect logic: He chastises the boy for beating up another kid, not for doing it but rather for doing it without extorting money: "If you get caught," Lou tells him, "what have you got to show for it?"
The dialogue is peppered with the genre clichés of worn wiseguy patois, a streetwise speaking idiom that rings true to form. There's a standard complement of corrupt politicians and crooked cops, but also a Chinese undertaker who makes corpses vanish.
Lou exists in a sub-society with its own code of behavior and survival. It's a world in which "men of respect" still dress up for a night out, where Lou cuts a singular figure; on the hunt with a black topcoat and fedora, Vincent's a dead ringer for Amerigo Tot, the actor who played Michael Corleone's bodyguard in "The Godfather: Part II."
To borrow from Joe Bob Briggs (who, as did Vincent, performed in "Casino"), Extra Iddings says check it out.

Poll: Abbott Leads Davis by 8 Points
Republican Greg Abbott is leading Democrat Wendy Davis by 8 points in a hypothetical matchup for Texas governor, but it's a statistical dead heat among women, according to a Texas Lyceum Poll of registered voters released Wednesday.
Abbott, the attorney general, leads Davis, a state senator from Fort Worth, 29 percent to 21 percent in the poll, with a whopping 50 percent undecided. The poll has a margin of error of +/- 3.47 percentage points.
Abbott's lead shrinks to 2 points, within the margin of error, when only women are counted. In that slice of the electorate, Abbott had ...

Bush shows arrogance, deceit on Blacks and Social Security
Desperate to turn Social Security into an entitlement program for corporations, President Bush and his right-wing cronies have been making ever more wild and bizarre statements in the face of massive opposition. Bush recently stated that "African American males die sooner than other males do, which means the system is inherently unfair." This jumble of logic was supposed to convert millions of African Americans into supporters of social security for financial corporations.

Three levels underground, across the street from his new downtown headquarters, Pazzo Ristorante, chef John Eisenhart revealed his secret ingredient: an orange-red 1964 Galaxie.
You were expecting saffron, perhaps?
Last year, Portland foodies wondered who would take over the kitchen when Nathan Logan left Pazzo for New York. After a lengthy search, Eisenhart--a seasoned chef whose heart pounds for motor oil as much as for DaVero olive oil--took the wheel last December. The Bite Club cornered Pazzo's new executive chef to find out where he's steering one of the city's trademark Italian kitchens.
Bite Club: Nice car.
Eisenhart: I don't have a house, a garden or a girlfriend. When I'm not at work, I spend my time working on my car.
Back to your other job--now that you're the boss, what changes are we going to see?
Logan was of the mentality that more is better. Me, I like to do only four or five ingredients per plate. I always cringed a little when I worked with French chefs because I always wanted to use less of everything. That's what I like about Italian food--it only takes one or two things to make it shine.
You've worked with kitchen heavyweights like Mario Batali at New York's Babbo Ristorante and Philippe Boulot at the Heathman Restaurant. Learn anything?
Mario taught me to relax in the kitchen. Philippe taught me about the business and how to run a kitchen.
What's your dish? What will Pazzo be known for?
Philippe always called me "The Master of Pasta." So maybe it's pasta. I love pasta.
I spotted a bumper sticker for Discourage, a local record shop, on your car. You like punk rock?
Yeah, I've known Discourage's [co-]owner Paul Anson for 10 years. I just bought a 45 from them for $550. The Dicks' Hate the Police. It was autographed.
So you love punk rock.
I used to have my own label that reissued old punk records. It was called Tafelspitz Records.
Tafel-huh? What's that?
It's a German dish of boiled meat.
But these days cooking is your grand passion?
It's a close second--to my car.

Chaka Khan to get Blackstone Ave. honor
By DASCHELL M. PHILLIPS
Staff Writer
Chaka Khan, legendary singer-songwriter and Kenwood Academy High School alum, will visit Chicago later this month for a street naming ceremony and established day proclamation.
On Saturday, July 27 at 2pm, Blackstone Avenue between 50th and 51st streets will be named Chaka Khan Way. Mayor Rahm Emanuel, Ald. Will Burns (4th) and other city officials, business and community leaders and friends are expected to attend the ceremonial unveiling honoring the ten-time Grammy Award winning artist.
"The fourth ward has a great legacy of entertainers, artists and others that have contributed to the cultural fabric of this country and, to a great extent the world," Burns said in a written statement. "For over four decades, Chaka Khan has been and continues to be an incredible artistic presence."
On Sunday, July 28, Khan will be honored in a ceremony proclaiming that day "Chaka Khan Day." The Sunday ceremony will take place downtown at Millennium Park.
"I owe this city so much, and I'm deeply honored by this tribute." Khan said in a written statement. "Chicago will always be a part of me, and with this street naming, I now will always be a part of it. It's a blessing to me and my family."
After the proclamation, as a thank you to the city where Khan said, "it all began for me," she will perform a free concert. This year marks the 40th anniversary of Chaka Khan's career in music and entertainment.

Update: SQNM Faces Further Patent Litigation 0 commentsJan 11, 2012 1:49 PM | about stocks: SQNM
Sequenom (NASDAQ: SQNM) released an 8-K today disclosing that it had been named in a complaint filed by Natera seeking a judicial declaration that (i) its pre-natal paternity test does not infringe on a patent licensed by SQNM from Isis Innovation and (ii) that some of the patent claims are invalid. SQNM reported in late December that it was subject to a similar claim filed by Aria Diagnostics (see our previous article).
It appears as though the more important aspect of the lawsuit relates to the attempt to invalidate one or more of the patent claims. While SQNM certainly could develop and market a paternity test, its filings only reference the use of the technology for pre-natal disease recognition. If, however, some of the patent claims are found to be invalid, the decision could have a significant impact on SQNM's intellectual property battles with more threatening competitors, such as Aria.
It is important to keep in mind that by filing an 8-K, SQNM has determined that the lawsuit is material enough to the investment decision making process to warrant disclosure to investors. As there is no reference to the development of a paternity test in any of SQNM's SEC filings, the aspect of the matter that likely crossed the materiality threshold appears to be the possible invalidation of patent claims. While SQNM did not file a press release related to the matter, investors should be wary. The fact that the matter was disclosed at all indicates that the company is taking it seriously.Stocks: SQNMBack To Disclosure Insight's Instablog HomePage »

once you turn off UEFI (which you'll be doing either way), it behaves just the same as a legacy BIOS would.

the OS doesn't care which one you have once it actually begins booting. it's this beginning that is the challenge.

the method for turning off UEFI (or "secure boot") is dependent on the motherboard model. some won't even let you turn it off, meaning you will not be able to run linux on it, ever. google before you buy.

Final Design
The Oxy System
By Jacqueline, Elana,
and Marie
Our piece of clothing that we designed had many little gadgets. The oxygen is not on the back of the person but inside the outfit. The oxygen comes when you step.
Every time you walk and put your foot down, oxygen is pushed up from the boot. Then oxygen runs up a tube and is cleaned in a glove, then released in another tube. That tube is directly sent to the helmet to be released.
Then the oxygen circulates the person to let them breath. If there is an emergency then a small tank inside the helmet lets out enough air to let the person breath. But there is rarely ever an emergency so this piece of clothing is really safe!
When a person is sleeping the machine automatically knows to release oxygen. Where does the oxygen come from? Well there is still a tank full of oxygen on your back but the tank is much smaller, about the size of a foot long hot dog and the width of a making a football goal with your hands. So this item puts less weight on you.

YOUNGSTOWN - Hospital management on Friday expressed disappointment at Thursday's strike authorization vote by members of the Youngstown General Duty Nurses Association / Ohio Nurses Association, and outlined for the first time the hospital's position in the contact talks.
''Northside Medical Center is very disappointed to learn that the Ohio Nurses Association is contemplating a strike against our hospital when negotiations are continuing with a federal mediator. Bargaining sessions are scheduled next week,'' hospital spokeswoman Trish Hrina said.
''It is our sincere desire that a mutually acceptable agreement can be reached with the union, but regardless of the outcome of these negotiations, our hospital remains committed to providing quality care for our patients and our community."
The contract is set to expire Thursday, and main sticking points include pay increases, staffing and health care costs, said Eric Williams, president of the 400-member Youngstown General Duty Nurses Association / Ohio Nurses Association.
"The vote gave our negotiating team permission to present a 10-day notice to the hospital if they deem it is appropriate," Williams said. "The notice has not yet been given."
Contract negotiations are set to resume on Wednesday.
Fact Box
Percent raises proposed over three years by nurses' union: 12 percent, 4.5 percent and 4.5 percent.
Percent raises proposed by hospital: 1.25 percent, 1 percent and 1 percent, plus elimination of step increases
"We are working on a one-year extension of a three-year contract," Williams said. "Our members have not had a raise in six years."
Williams said one of the sticking points in the negotiations is the hospital wants the ability to reduce the nurses by up to four shifts without giving any reason.
"Depending on a full-time nurse's schedule, it could affect one-half or more of their pay," Williams said.
The policy would have a greater effect on part-time nurses' pay, he said.
Williams said he does not understand why the hospital is seeking that change of policy, since they are working short of personnel and are bringing in supplemental help nurses to fill shifts.
"We are very scared that we will be working in unsafe working conditions," he said.
In a prepared statement Friday the hospital came out strongly against the union's demands, calling the list of 25 demands, including a 12 percent wage increase this year and an additional 5 percent the next two years, ''stunning.''
The statement said the nurses union has ''refused to budge from its demands.''
Hrina said the hospital has made a wage proposal increase for the next three years but did not detail what that offer is.
Williams has said the hospital is offering to boost annual wages by 1.25 percent, 1 percent and 1 percent, with elimination of the registered nurse wage scale, which means all step increases would be eliminated, the union said.
The company is proposing a wage scale for new nurses that's less than their proposal for current nurses, the union added.
The nurses countered on June 20 with a proposal of 12 percent, 4.5 percent and 4.5 percent.
The two sides are also at odds over staffing levels.
Management said Friday, ''Other organizations are not forced by a union to overstaff their businesses.''
It went on to say the hospital is hoping to develop the ability to ''staff up or down, depending on how many patients are in their care at any given time.''
Calling the proposal ''very standard in union contracts,'' the hospital's proposal allows for times when management can send home nurses who are not needed for a particular shift.
''The ONA's claims that salaries will be drastically cut as a result of call-offs is purposefully an incendiary reaction. The only reason this would happen is if our patient volume was dramatically reduced,'' Hrina said in the statement.
Management went on to describe its fringe benefits offer as ''competitive for our marketplace.''
For health insurance, the hospital pays 70 to 90 percent of the employee's health insurance premium, with a $25 co-pay.
The union said, however, that a management proposal could cut nurses' pay by more than 50 percent in any two-week period, or more because they would face greater cost for health care in some cases, Williams said.

The images spread above you, a snowy landscape as far as the eyes can see, inspiring awe and wonder.
The music begins to swell, a cherished song from your youth, and you find that you can't help but sing along.
Then come the pictures: snowflakes, elves and snowmen, all writ large as three-dimensional laser images. You catch yourself realizing how close you came to indulging in the childlike urge to reach up and try to touch the 3D images.
You can recapture this childhood magic all month long, as the New Jersey State Museum Planetarium presents its holiday show, Laser Nutcracker Spectacular 3D.
The show, one of the more popular at the planetarium, utilizes the latest in full-dome video to envelop attendees in a winter wonderland. There are also dazzling laser images that appear to be three-dimensional, thanks to special technology that pushes the color red to the foreground and blue to background, a perfect technique for making red-coated nutcrackers appear all the more majestic.
The visual images are set against a selection of holiday music, ranging from, of course, Tchaikovsky's "Nutcracker Suite" to beloved standards such as "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" and "Frosty the Snowman."
"In a typical astronomy show you have to be quiet and listen to the lecturer, but with the laser light show, we actually encourage the visitors, especially the kids, to sing and clap along." says the planetarium's assistant curator, Jay Schwartz. "It really is a lot of fun."
While the show has been a favorite over the last decade, this year's edition features a brand new array of sights and sounds, courtesy of laserist Renee Stein. Stein selected the majority of the video images and operates the planetarium during the show. In fact, each individual showing is unique, as Stein controls most of the laser images live.
"The colors, the movement and the position of the lasers is all done live, so that's up to me and the kids," says Stein, who says she is excited to be working on the show for the first time.
"If the kids like something, they respond by clapping and cheering," Stein says. "If I show one snowman, they'll have me make it five snowmen."
Stein, who first decided to work at the planetarium after joining her father at a "take your child to work" day when she was younger, adds that audiences of all ages have shown remarkable enthusiasm. She cites the kaleidoscopic images of snowflakes as being a particular highlight for the crowd.
She says another favorite moment has been seeing the children in the audience enthusiastically singing along to a Kwanzaa song, even though the song is not as well known to the general public. The Kwanzaa song has been included in the program along with a Hanukkah song and other segments celebrating holiday traditions around the world.
"Everyone leaves happy, everyone has a good time," Stein adds.
Augmenting the Laser Nutcracker program, all shows during Trenton's Patriot Week will include a special historic segment in which the planetarium will recreate the night sky over Trenton on Christmas Day 1776, when George Washington made his historic crossing of the Delaware River.
"The same stars that were in the night sky when Washington crossed the Delaware are in the sky now, it hasn't changed much," Stein says. "It provides a real connection to our past, which is important."
She notes that Washington would have seen Orion's Belt, which is still visible in the sky today.
The 3D glasses used in Laser Nutcracker can also be used for an enhanced view of the Nikon Small World exhibit, which features enlarged microscopic photographs. Nikon Small World is conveniently located in the walkway between the planetarium and the rest of the Trenton State Museum.
Attendees will also have the opportunity to help the community by bringing a non-perishable food item, which will be donated to the Trenton Area Soup Kitchen. Anyone who does so will receive $1 off admission to any planetarium show.
"This year has been pretty dramatic with the hurricane and everything," Schwartz reflects. "So, if people want to get into a good spirit, we encourage them to take a break from their worries and come down and see the show."
Laser Nutcracker Spectacular 3D runs approximately 40 minutes. Tickets are $7 for adults and $5 for children 12 and younger, with special discounted rates for schools.
Tickets may be purchased at the planetarium box office 30 minutes prior to show time.

Age: 31
Hometown: Ottawa, Ontario
Current gig: Promoting her new album, an acoustic version of her 1995 smash, Jagged Little Pill
She's not quite as angry these days
With its explosive single "You Oughta Know," Jagged Little Pill (which sold more than 30 million copies worldwide) turned Morissette into the poster girl for scorned women everywhere. But the new acoustic version of the album – released on June 13, marking the 10th anniversary of the original – reflects a new maturity. "I think my anger is as vital as it's ever been," she says. "It's just being channeled in a different way as an adult." So was it hard to revisit those emotionally raw songs? "I didn't cringe my way through reinterpreting them," she says. "With 10 years worth of objectivity, now I can step back from it and really tip my hat to the whole experience."
She faced depression – and won
For years, the former child star (she was a regular on the Nickelodeon sketch-comedy series You Can't Do That on Television in the '80s) says, "I cried a lot for reasons I didn't understand." It didn't help that she was also battling, she says, food issues and abusive relationships. But after trying an alternative therapy called "integrative coaching," she found balance. Today, she says, "I feel blessed. If I had trouble with emotionally violent relationships or eating disorders or whatever it was, rather than just staying in the victim place of 'poor me,' I can now take those experiences to support other people who are going through the same thing."
Isn't it ironic? She's happily in love
Another reason for Morissette's newfound peace? Her relationship with her fiancé, Amityville Horror star and fellow Canadian Ryan Reynolds, 28, whom she's been dating for three years. "We have a similar sense of humor," she says. "He's like a soul brother to me, except that I want to jump his bones." (Says Reynolds, "Being in a relationship that is bedrocked in support, it's pretty great.") Although they've been engaged since last June, the pair aren't rushing to the altar. "There's no (wedding) date," the singer says. "We're happily swimming along in this very short phase. We'll never be able to be engaged again, so we're milking it for all it's worth!"
She's still dabbling in movies
Morissette, who played God in Kevin Smith's 2001 movie Dogma and a singer in the 2004 Cole Porter biopic De-Lovely, recently filmed a cameo in Reynolds's upcoming comedy, Just Friends. "I just play myself," she says. "Ryan is playing a very high-up record executive, and we run into each other. It's a very funny scene." What did she think of his portrayal? "He was perfect. He's fantastically slimy. He's been around me long enough to have heard some stories that may or may not have inspired his performance."

Joe Curtis, Senior reporter / / Walthamstow, Leyton and Leytonstone
PROTESTERS are camped out on Leyton Marshes in an attempt to prevent a temporary Olympic training centre being built.
Around 20 people have set up tents to stop diggers starting work on a basketball court, car park and holding area on pubic land off Lea Bridge Road.
The plan was controversially approved by Waltham Forest Council in February despite a petition opposing the plan signed by 1,250 people.
The protesters are a mix of local residents and members of the Occupy London movement, which recently set up camp outside St Paul's Cathedral.
The Leyton Marshes campsite was established on Saturday (March 24) to protest against the use of protected, public land for Olympics development.
Campaigner Matthew Waterfall, 33, of Manor Road in Leyton, said: "I've been coming down here every day to show my support.
"I don't think the Olympic Delivery Authority should be building the basketball court here because it's public land.
"The Occupy guys are peacefully protesting which is great.
"We don't want to obstruct anyone from using the land but do want to stop them building here.
"It could set a precedent where other green spaces could be built upon in future."
The Lee Valley Park Authority, which owns the marshes, will receive £65,000 for the use of the land. Residents will be denied access to a number of the borough's green spaces throughout the summer.
Drapers Field in Leyton will be used as a storage area, while a campsite is planned for the Waterworks Nature Reserve in Leyton and Low Hall playing fields in Walthamstow.
A company has claimed to have sealed a deal to create campsites at Ive Farm playing fields in Leyton and on land at George Monoux College in Chingford Road, Walthamstow.
Part of Wanstead Flats is also to be used as a temporary police base.
The council said that any money earned from the use of green spaces will fund community events.
The ODA has vowed to return Leyton Marshes to public use as soon as possible after the Games.
A spokesman for the ODA said: "We are liaising closely with the land-owner, the Lee Valley Regional Park Authority, and the Metropolitan Police to ensure the safety of the workforce and the public, and the security of the construction site.
"This is a temporary facility, occupying just one section of Leyton Marsh, and will be removed soon after the Paralympic Games.
"We remain totally committed to restoring the area to its previous state. In addition, the Lee Valley Authority will be investing £65,000 of funding from the ODA in improved seating, pathways and gateways and enhanced habitats for wildlife."

That old favorite Protestant hymn could provide only so much inspiration. After four best-sellers, James Herriot has finally reached the end of the verse. All Things Bright and Beautiful, All Creatures Great and Small, All Things Wise and Wonderful, The Lord God Made Them All, and Herriot is leaving the sequel up to Him. A hint of religion nevertheless crept into the title of Herriot's latest, Moses the Kitten, a brief, sweetly illustrated story of a kitten saved from the cold and nurtured by a sow. Though the book has taken its predestined place on the best-seller lists, Herriot, whose real name is Jim Wight, declares it will probably be his last literary labor. After nearly 15 years of making alternate rounds as a vet on the farms of Yorkshire and as a celebrity author on the talk show circuit, Herriot/Wight has tired of being all things to all people.
"I want to slip back and go do the things that everybody else at my age does," says Wight, 68. "It's horrible when you see the sands of time running out, and you have four nice grandchildren. What's the use of me hammering a typewriter when they are there?" Actually, even Moses the Kitten (St. Martin's), a seven-minute read that sells for $9.95, represents slim pickings reworked from the earlier Herriot canon. Readers have nevertheless warmed to Moses as they have to all Wight's cuddly tales.
Like the other Herriot stories, this one draws on real events in a way that appeals to both adults and children. "Aye," says Wight in his throaty Glaswegian way, "it's true, every word of it." By cleaving so faithfully to his own life behind the Herriot pseudonym (which he picked up from a soccer player he was watching on television while writing his first book), Wight has sacrificed a measure of privacy. Although he at first cajoled journalists into revealing only that he lived "somewhere in Yorkshire," Wight's Yankee fans soon showed up on his doorstep in the north Yorkshire market town of Thirsk. They still flock in on Wednesdays and Fridays, during his office hours in the red brick, vine-draped Georgian structure, where he began his practice more than 40 years ago. Wight says he is usually "all too pleased to see American visitors down at the surgery and to sign the books, because they bought baby new shoes."
In fact, as many as 50 million Herriot books have been sold, but most of Wight's earnings have gone to the government. "I wrote six books at 83 percent tax, and at the end of it my accountant said, 'You've written six books, and five of them you wrote for the tax man,' " says Wight. "Anyway, they gave me the OBE"—meaning Officer of the British Empire, conferred on Wight by Prince Charles in 1979.
Wight is the son of an opera-singer mother and a father who played piano and organ. He grew up in Glasgow appreciating arts and letters, but decided on a career in animal medicine at 13, when he read an article on the vet's life in the British boys' magazine Meccano. Wight began his second career at the age of 50—in response to his wife's challenge that men his age didn't write first books. Their son, Jimmy, 42, has joined his father's practice. Daughter Rosemary, 36, is a physician who ministers to the human residents of Thirsk. Wight and his wife, Joan, 65, live out of town in a two-bedroom bungalow overlooking a small duck pond on five acres. "I don't eat meat much," says Herriot with a nod to his patients. "I prefer vegetables, you know."
Throughout his literary success, Wight never considered abandoning his practice. Says he, "When I'm walking out in a farmyard, out in all the dust and all the old smells and sensations, I think, 'I'd hate to stop doing this.' " He allows that inspiration might one day call him back to the typewriter. "I might get what they call a rush of blood," he says. "Besides, I'm not so good at pushing the horses and cows about as I used to be." Whether or not James Herriot returns, Jim Wight can have the satisfaction of knowing he has lived both his lives well.

CLARK -- General Motors agreed in bankruptcy court this week to pay $14 million to clean up a former ball-bearing plant site in Clark and another $10 million for a former industrial site in Ewing, part of a larger cleanup in more than a dozen states.
The deal means years of monitoring will be paid for at a golf course in Clark that sits atop tons of contaminated soil, but in Ewing it means an excavation could be undertaken to remove toxic soils.
A total of $641 million will be devoted to cleanups around the country by Motors Liquidation Company, a branch of that broke off following its bankruptcy filing last year.
"Every site that our liquidation owns that has a significant environmental issue is part of this, and that would include Hyatt (Hills Golf Course in Clark)," said Tim Yost, a spokesman for Motors Liquidation Company. "This is good news for the area. This agreement ensures there will be money in place for the necessary environmental remediation."
Hyatt Hills Golf Course is up for sale as part of the GM bankruptcy, which started in 2009. The course was once the site of GM's Hyatt-Clark Roller Bearing plant.
After the plant closed, the site was found to be contaminated with oils and heavy metals and 38 acres were remediated for recreation only. GM agreed to let Clark and Cranford officials run a public golf course there, signing a lease in 2001.
Rather than haul away all contaminated soil from the site, which would have cost hundreds of millions of dollars, the state Department of Environmental Protection agreed to let GM cover the 38 acres of contaminated ground with new topsoil in 1996, at a cost of only about $12 million.
That means the property currently can only be used for outdoor recreation activities, not commercial or residential purposes, according to Robert Hoeffler, a former Cranford mayor who now is the director of the course.
"The physical site should not require any future disturbance for remediation," said Department of Environmental Protection spokesman Larry Ragonese. "The majority of the money of the $14.2 million will be used for future operation and maintenance of the groundwater treatment which filters and treats the water."
Even if the property is sold, the golf course will likely remain in existence as a tenant, Hoeffler said, because its lease runs through 2026.
The property in Ewing is vacant land that borders a supermarket, stores and a credit union, according to the state.
DEP officials said that the soil on the site contains heavy metals, and other compounds leached into the groundwater when GM used the site for heavy manufacturing. Some of that land will be excavated as part of the remediation. After that, the site will be monitored for a number of years, as the Hyatt Hills Golf Course is.

I can't believe how great this generator is for the price! 1/3 of the price of the brand name inverter generators yet better equipped. Very quiet, very fuel efficient and plenty of power capacity. We use this for mobile catering and have come across a lot of interest from other vendors. Why hire one for $70 a day when you can own one for this price? I am so impressed I think i'll buy another!
Yes I would recommend this product

Ha, it looks like you're in the middle of a blizzard! Was this an organized event? If so, how many people were there?
I remember when I was in my junion year of college, our student body decided it would be a great idea to have the world's largest water balloon fight. We got 3,927 people there and 120,021 balloons thrown. We beat the numbers for the U of Kentucky record. Still waiting for the Guinness Book to update their records.
A local artist wanted to take advantage of the opportunity and turned it into a music video listed below:

Sky Lakes Medical Center's Nuclear Medicine Department offers patients a simultaneous combination PET and CT scan, significantly enhancing the department's diagnostic services.
PET – Positron Emission Tomography – combined with CT – Computerized Tomography – is a valuable clinical test for cancer, heart disease and neurological disorders.
Unlike other types of diagnostic imaging systems, PET/CT allows physicians to see minute chemical and physiological changes related to metabolism. While other imaging methods provide mainly structural information, PET/CT provides a look at how your body is functioning.
This information aids in the early detection and improved treatment of many diseases, allowing enhanced capabilities in pre-surgical staging, helps eliminate invasive procedures, enhances therapy monitoring capabilities, and reduces the number of diagnostic tests performed.
For cancer patients, PET/CT is the only way to accurately image many organs at one time to diagnose malignancy, and even provide information about whether or not cancer has spread to other parts of the body.
In addition to cancer studies, PET/CT examines patients for some heart conditions and looks for reversible damage as opposed to permanent heart damage.
PET/CT is also used in neurological studies, investigating brain metabolism in patients with dementia and epilepsy.
PET/CT is a safe and painless procedure that typically takes about one hour to complete.

It Takes a Court
Steven Lubet
Northwestern University - Pritzker School of Law
April 29, 2010
Syracuse Law Review, Vol. 60, p. 221, 2010
Northwestern Public Law Research Paper, 10-17
In the standard account of Caperton v. Massey Energy, it is a complex story about judicial elections, campaign contributions, conflicts of interest and the Due Process Clause. In another sense, however, it is a much more mundane story about poor judicial role modeling, in which an insensible West Virginia Supreme Court justice became notorious only because the followed the bad example of the United States Supreme Court itself. This article explains why courts of last resort (both SCOTUS and state supreme courts) should refer recusal motions to the entire court, rather than allow disqualification to be decided solely by the challenged justice.

In times of suffering, simplistic answers ring empty and hollow. But Henri Nouwen, beloved spiritual thinker and author, offers real comfort in the concrete truth of God's constancy. Nouwen suggests that by greeting life's pains with something other than despair, we can find surprising joy in our suffering. He suggests that the way through suffering is not in denial, but rather in living fully in the midst of the trials life brings our way.

There are no guarantees in investments — or in much of anything in life, for that matter — so that means if you're going to work in the investment industry, you better surround yourself with as much data and smarts and ideas that you can. That doesn't make the future any more knowable, but at least it arms you to handle the uncertain future that comes your way.
Idea generation doesn't often occur in a vacuum or after a sudden flash of insight. (Unless you're Ron Popeil, perhaps. At least that's where I imagine "Set it and forget it" came from.) No, it usually starts with a conversation between people interested in similar things.
The purpose of this blog is to open up the door a bit on the conversations that, as a matter of course, happen all the time behind the scenes in an investment company. We figure that, if you're reading this, chances are you're similarly like-minded, and wouldn't mind joining in the conversation as well.
As editor of Wells Fargo AdvantageVoice, I'll function like a curator, finding interesting ideas that are happening here and elsewhere in the financial world and then opening them up for (hopefully polite) discussion.
The steady stream of material we regularly produce will also be found here. Our award-winning Daily Advantage newsletter, now in its tenth year, will show up—while still being emailed to subscribers, of course. We hope the new blog format makes it easier for regular readers to join in the many conversations sparked by Daily Advantage. We'll include our weekly podcast On the Trading Desk as well, in addition to some of our regularly scheduled commentary.
We hope you'll find value in the broad mix of topics and ideas we'll post on the blog. There will be analysis of breaking news, ideas about investing trends, economic insights, and—as regular readers of Daily Advantage can guess—our usual dose of offbeat topics and humor.
We thank you for reading and look forward to what's hopefully a long and ongoing conversation!

Condition: Skin in need of aggressive exfoliation, increased cell turnover, and the reduction of imperfections and fine lines. Provides similar benefits as popular spa treatments without using aluminum crystals.
Solution: Nature's Microdermabrasion is formulated with volcanic sand instead of harmful aluminum crystals to provide more natural and aggressive exfoliation.

Squalene, Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Avocado Oil aid in cell renewal and protect the skin from environmental factors.
Suggested Use
Use 1-2 times a week on face or body, avoiding sensitive areas or open cuts/wounds. Follow-up with a nourishing moisturizer.
Other Ingredients
De-ionized water, aloe vera (aloe barbadensis) leaf gel*, avocado oil, volcanic sand, glyceryl stearate SE, stearic acid (vegetable source), vegetable glycerin, cetyl alcohol, cetearyl alcohol/cetearyl glucoside, glucose/glucose oxidase/lactoperoxidase (natural preservative), virgin olive oil*, vegetable squalene, magnesium ascorbyl phosphate (vitamin C), citrus bioflavonoids, d-alpha tocopherol (vitamin E) (from soy), niacinamide (vitamin B-3), grapefruit seed extract, natural aroma, potassium sorbate, xanthan gum and citric acid.
*Certified Organic
This facial scrub is excellent for oily skin which usually tends to be quite thick and sometimes suffers from impurities. Since the exfoliating granules of this scrub are quite big, this product is excellent for oily skin to scrub away excess sebum as well as old skin cells to reveal new and glowing skin. Because of the big granule size I wouldn't recommend this for sensitive skin seeing it might be too harsh. The only downside of the scrub is the very small product size and the relatively high price for such a small quantity of the product, hence only four stars instead of five for this great product.
I really like this product just need a small amount i use it every couple of days to exfoliate.Skin feels great looks good , will order again for sure
Shouldn't be named Microdermabrasion.

I was a bit disappointed to find the level of 'scrub' in this facial scrub was low. I purchased it based on the name. Derma E sells a microdermabrasion scrub which has the consistency of wet sand. That is what i was expecting baaed on the name. This is more of a traditional facial scrub. This IS a nice facial scrub. Non irritating and gentle on the skin. Just not what I needed.
Posted by 4805229028156316329 on Sep 16, 2016
Definitely deep cleans the pores and makes your skin more able to absorb all of the creams or serums you may use!
love it

I love this!

As obesity rates in children have climbed, so has the incidence of Type 2 diabetes, and a new study adds another worry - the disease progresses more rapidly in children than in adults and is harder to treat.
One of the biggest threats to our children's health may be underestimated. Obesity and the form of diabetes linked to it are setting kids up for runaway medical problems.
"An obese child is potentially more at risk for high cholesterol, high blood pressure, sleep apnea, Type 2 diabetes, joint related problems, liver disease, gall bladder disease. That's a big list," says Lee Memorial Health System pediatrician Dr. Nancy Witham.
With upwards of 30 percent of Florida's kids weighing in as obese, pediatricians are intervening.
"The first thing we would do is look at where the child is on a growth chart, take a good family history and find if there's some of the things like the diabetes, high blood pressure, already present in the family which would put the child at increase risk," says Dr. Witham.
New studies suggest diabetes in children is harder to treat and it progresses more quickly, meaning they get sicker quicker.
"Adults who are overweight may take 15 years before they develop diabetes. And in children that can be as short as a couple of years," says Lee Memorial Health System pediatric endocrinologist Dr. Asjad Khan.
Doctors believe the speed and severity may be linked to hormones.
"Such as growth hormone and testosterone, estrogen. They are much higher in children in puberty. So these excess hormones, plus the overweight together, cause even more insulin resistance," says Dr. Khan.
In theory, people who develop diabetes as children may suffer complications much earlier in life than previous generations who became diabetic as adults. Type 2 diabetes is typically avoidable by improving diet and exercise.
"It's all about choices and making the appropriate choices," says Dr. Witham.
The best advice: eliminate the risk by preventing the problem.

Well, the first preseason game of 2013 is in the books (You can check out Kyle Rodriguez's initial reactions article by clicking here), and it wasn't especially pretty. The Goal for next week? According to Reggie Wayne: "Win. Let's start with that. Let's win and like I said, we are going to watch the film, correct these mistakes and hopefully we won't make the same ones next week."
That's a good place to start. But for now, we'll take a quick look at what happened on Sunday and get a few players', as well as Coach Pagano's takes on the game. (continued below)
The Colts appeared rusty and discordant, and the Buffalo Bills pounced on the opportunity to the tune of a 44-20 drubbing. Andrew Luck went 4/6 for 51 yards, his last pass a high one over the middle to TE Coby Fleener, who turned it into a 24-yard gain before fumbling.
Two plays later, the Bills fumbled the ball right back. The teams traded field goals, tying the score at 3, before Colts backup QB Matt Hasselbeck (4/8, 75 yds, 1/1) threw a highlight reel 45-yard strike to a sprinting T.Y. Hilton. Hilton laid out for a diving circus catch – the kind he might not have pulled off last year – then slid and bounced into the end zone.
From there, the game quickly evolved into extended player tryouts. They traded field goals again in the second quarter before Buffalo scored two straight touchdowns, one on a 107-yard kick return by Marquise Goodwin, making it 20-13, Bills.
Indianapolis would score one last time early in the fourth quarter, when former AFL LB Caesar Rayford sacked Bills QB Jeff Tuel, knocking the ball to the ground with a monstrous swat. Reserve defensive back Dax Swanson scooped up the ball and raced 72 yards to the end zone.
Overall, it was a good day to see some young guys try out for the team, but not a great day on the scoreboard. Chuck Pagano, who was visibly frustrated on the sidelines, said after the game, "Obviously everybody top to bottom is disappointed. You never envision going out and playing a football game and having the outcome that we had. That's not what we came in here to do today, obviously. Like I told the guys, it's never as bad as you think it is. It's never good as you think it is. Somewhere in between is where reality lies."
Pagano on the offense: "The positive things, we had some positive things in the first half with our first offense. I think (Andrew) Luck was driving the team and then you shoot yourself in the foot. We're off late on a communication thing with a snap and we have a sack. You get a false start and you're first-and-15. Get a big play to (Coby) Fleener and give Buffalo credit, they come up and smack him pretty good, and he puts the ball on the carpet. We got a chance to have a great drive going there and then we have an opportunity for a big play in the back of the end zone right back to Coby. He's been making those plays all through training camp. He'll bounce back from that.
And the defense, Chuck? "Defensively," Pagano began "(C.J.) Spiller again, great back. Couple big runs there to start against our defense early on. We got things calmed down for the most part but we got to look at that and address that, obviously, that's a major point of emphasis for us. Two red zone stops for the defense. One was a sudden change after a turnover, so that was a positive. Again, give Buffalo credit. They did a great job. They went up-tempo on their offense the whole time. Defensively they put good pressure on us up front and put pressure on our quarterback."
Pagano on the Special Teams Performance: "Special teams-wise, you're not going to win any football games or give yourself a chance to win football games by giving up big plays on special teams. And we make no excuses, but we give up a big punt return and then obviously a kickoff return for a touchdown. We've got to address that and make the necessary adjustments and corrections and we will do that."
Where Was Bjoern?
The first preseason game, absent of much significant pass rush from the defense, was also lacking rookie pass rusher Bjoern Werner. Fans everywhere were looking forward to seeing the young linebacker in his first NFL game action but in the end were left asking, "Was Bjoern even in the gjame?" No, superfluous use of the letter "j" aside, he was not. Pagano said he should be back in practice this week, however.
"We knew that a couple days ago his knee was sore and we held him out of practice," Pagano said. "He got treatment on it and he felt better Saturday, but then we brought him out and worked him out this morning prior to the game and put him through some stuff. He just wasn't 100 percent. So rather than just throw him out there at 75 percent or 80 or whatever he is, it just wasn't worth it. We aired on the side of caution and held him out. He should be back at practice by Tuesday."
Take note, future free agents who might consider playing in the Circle City someday: The Colts are cautious and responsible on the matters injuries and player health. It would be silly to think that no one plays in the regular season at less than 100%. However, this team isn't going to risk anything in a game that doesn't matter, and they seem to have players' long-term health in mind year round.
Quote Time
Well, no one likes to keep talking about a loss, but here are a few highlights from the player postgame interviews.
Andrew Luck taking the blame for the miscommunication on his sack: "Yeah the sack was my fault. It was a cadence mishap. (Anthony) Castonzo is pissed at me (laughs). He said 'Do you want to get hurt, Andrew?' So, I told him I'd publicly take that one on me. He's in the clear for that."
Chandler Harnish, 3rd string QB and unabashed Hoosier, on the importance of the preseason for a player in his position: "Huge. It's my Super Bowl. I need to go out and perform like it's my last game every single afternoon and this is a tough one to take on the chin but sometimes you have your bad days and you need to learn from it and see what you can do better next time."
T.Y. Hilton, who just keeps looking better and better, deflecting the praise for his 45 yard touchdown: "Oh yeah, yeah. It was very exciting, Matt (Hasselbeck) threw a wonderful ball, O-line held up, and I was able to go ahead and make a play."
Hilton again, on what kinds of things he asks Reggie Wayne in his relentless quest for improvement: "Just things like what he sees in the defense. There's no defense that he hasn't seen, so whenever I get a chance to ask him a question, whether it's on the field or off the field, I make sure I do that."
Reggie Wayne on getting the first preseason game under wraps (He was not pleased): "You saw the score, right? We didn't play good Colts football today. We have to do better. We had some good plays but we had a ton of bad plays so hopefully we can correct those and get better for next week."
Bills QB E. J. Manuel on getting to talk with Andrew Luck, who he's known since high school: "He said I looked comfortable. He said I looked good. Obviously, I said the same to him. He came out there and did what he does, but getting the props from him was really nice."
Let's put this one behind us, Colts fans. Be sure to check out Kyle Rodriguez's article with notes on the good, bad and ugly – which players stood out, whether in a positive or negative light in yesterday's preseason game.

Best Practices: What First-Year Law Students Should Learn in a Legal Research Class
Nancy P. Johnson
Georgia State University College of Law
Legal Reference Services Quarterly, 2009
Georgia State University College of Law, Legal Studies Research Paper No. 2009-04
Legal research instructors seldom have adequate class time to teach students the print and online sources needed to complete a research task successfully. However, there are core principles that first-year students should learn in a legal research class. The author discusses best practices in teaching the legal research process, along with the important research sources, including judicial opinions and reporters, digests and finding cases, statutes, administrative publications, updating research with citators, and secondary sources.

Please submit your 250-word proposal by August 1, 2008.
The 2008 conference will feature scholarly and creative work that treats questions of power in relation to women: the experiences, creations, theories, and practices of power that define and are defined by women as actors, objects, and modes of performance and being in the world. The conference, among other things, aims to provoke discussion about women in positions of power, the vexatious roads they travel to get there, the barriers they meet, defeat, or submit to along the way, and the humorous, sad, and/or inspiring visions that arise from womenĺs engagement with powers of all kindsŚ-including the powers they possess themselves.
This yearĺs conference will culminate in the publication of selected scholarly papers and creative works in a special conference issue of The South Dakota Review.
We solicit proposals for research presentations, scholarly papers, roundtable discussions, brief dramatic performances, film viewings, and creative readings on any topic that treats the diverse intertwinings of women and power.
