Arte's Angle in Anaheim
by Dan Chmielewski •

Anaheim Council Priorities: Tennis Anyone?
by Editorial Staff •
UPDATED – While the priorities and antics of the current majority on the Anaheim City Council have been both entertaining and disturbing, the latest bit of budget news has us asking WTF?

Kris Murray Majority in Anaheim Rejects Neighborhood Choice in Council Representation
by Editorial Staff •
We are baffled at the decision Tuesday night of the Anaheim City Council to reject district level elections for council members as proposed by the citizen's advisory committee. The 4-1 vote was led by Kris Murray, who had initially proposed the committee process last year as a solution in response to a voting rights lawsuit challenging the city's current at-large council elections process.

Democrats Jon Richards, Susan Happ and Ismael Ozanne and Republican Brad Schimel shared common ground on the new law requiring outside investigations of police-involved deaths, collective bargaining rights of public safety workers and protecting children from Internet crimes.
They sparred over whether to criminalize first-offense OWIs.
The board of the nearly 10,000-member WPPA, which endorsed Republican J.B. Van Hollen in 2006 and 2010, soon will vote on which candidate to endorse in this race, and Saturday's debate was the first time the four candidates have debated together.
Gov. Scott Walker scaled back collective bargaining rights for most public employees but excluded public safety employees. Every candidate said Saturday they would defend bargaining rights for law enforcement.
The three Democrats said they would work to fight back against concessions other public employees made under Act 10. They highlighted the importance of good schools to prevent kids from becoming involved in crime.
Schimel said he made concessions as a public employee but would fight for the rights of law enforcement officers as attorney general. "I do not support expanding Act 10 to public safety workers," Schimel said.
Wisconsin is the only state in the nation where a first-time drunken driving conviction isn't criminalized, and the state's fatal drunken driving rate is higher than its Midwest neighbors and the national average.
Schimel said he has worked to strengthen laws regarding second and subsequent offenses and that "once you've gotten a fourth offense, every fourth offense should be a felony."
But Schimel said the state hasn't criminalized first offenses because "it's very expensive and there's no evidence it would make a difference."
"I almost can't believe what I'm hearing," Ozanne said. "... I in good conscience cannot say it shouldn't be criminalized."
Richards also said he supports criminalizing first-time offenses and expanding the use of interlock devices in the cars of drunken drivers.
Happ said she believes first-time offenders exercise a lack of judgment and "deserve the benefit of learning from their mistakes" if they don't kill or injure someone.
The candidates agreed heroin and other opiates are the top issue facing the state.
Ozanne said the state needs to focus on the way it prosecutes drug-related offenses.
"Heroin is a serious problem, but we're not going to get out of it by prosecuting," he said. He said the state also should focus on violent criminals.
Richards agreed that heroin is the state's most pressing issue and said the issue of Internet crimes against children is close behind.
Schimel touted his work on the HOPE legislation that passed last session and focuses on drug treatment courts that take into account issues particular to heroin addiction.
Happ said heroin addiction motivates crimes and that the state should focus on efforts to prevent addiction and control substances.
Walker signed a law in April that requires any deaths involving a police officer to be investigated by an outside agency. Since the law took effect, the Division of Criminal Investigation has investigated four deaths involving an officer.
An early proposal in the bill was to create a statewide panel of officials that would review the investigations. That aspect was removed from the successful piece of legislation, and every candidate on Saturday said they support the law as it stands.

Fame for Micky Flanagan is not fast cars or big houses. It is a sausage sandwich. The Cockney comedian likes nothing better than having a quiet moment in his kitchen making a sandwich.
"That's the kind of thing that is an adventure to me these days," he smiles. It certainly makes a change from playing sold out shows, which is what he is spending most of 2013 doing on his biggest tour yet – Back In The Game.
Micky turned 50 last October, but shows no signs of slowing down. His tour puts him firmly in comedy's premier league alongside the likes of Michael McIntyre and John Bishop, but fame brings about all sorts of changes, as the genial gagsmith jokes.
"You can't nick things any more. These are the problems of being successful. A sandwich here, a chocolate bar there. Apparently crime and success don't go hand in hand!"
He says that hitting the big 50 didn't really worry him:
"Someone suggested I should lie about my age. If I was a film star or a pop star maybe, but comedians are supposed to tell the truth. Frankie Boyle says you can't be a stand-up after 40. On the other hand Bob Monkhouse once said you can't be funny until you are over 40. So how much time does that leave you to be funny? About a year."
Micky's challenge with Back In The Game was coming up with material to match previous classic routines, such as his famous "out out" story, where you pop out for a quick drink and end up in a club still wearing your slippers.
If his last show was all about his life up to becoming a comedian via Billingsgate market, living in America – "where I was an international lover and player" – and doing a City University degree in social science, Back In The Game is about where he is now.
And where he is now is living in Dulwich, south London with his wife Cathy and six-year-old son Max.
We are chatting in his bright study, surrounded by comedy books by his peers such as Russell Brand and Jo Brand. Micky claims that all the really exciting things happen when you are young. Yet his meteoric rise from comedy club to arena superstardom in a handful of years disproves the rule.
"By the time my dad was 26 he had kids, a council flat and a job on the docks. His life was more or less done. When I was 36 I was still looking around for opportunities."
He found that opportunity when he was in the audience at a comedy show. It was seeing Billy Connolly that made him think he could have a go.
"I love Harry Hill's surrealism and Chris Rock's ability to say the unsayable but I could never do that. But I thought I could tell stories like Billy Connolly."
He started doing stand-up in his mid-30s and initially combined comedy gigs with a job as a painter and decorator.
"For about two years I'd be travelling to gigs with a bottle of white spirit in my bag so that I could clean the paint off my hands. Eventually I was doing gigs every weekend and another comedian said to me, 'if you don't quit your day job you won't enjoy either. Just take the rest of the week off like the rest of us.'
"At first it felt like I'd won the pools getting up on a Monday and not having to work again until Thursday!"
The new show is about the small things in life.
"The centrepiece is about me making a sausage sandwich. My life has slowed down to such a point if my wife goes out for the day that's how I create excitement. I also talk about the two off licenses in my life – the one I go to normally and the one I pop into for the second bottle of wine. Things like that. So all these little details I'm pulling in to say to 'this is where I'm at."
Although he is clearly devoted to the craft of comedy, Micky does not want to analyse his success.
"I was very happy where I was being a circuit comic, I didn't have a plan. All I wanted to do was avoid having a badly paid 9am-5pm job."
But the country loves him and so does television. So much so that last year when he had planned to take a break he ended up doing so many panel shows that he felt he could not turn the television on without seeing his face.
"I was starting to think I'd have to watch foreign TV to avoid myself!"
For Micky the future is currently all about stand-up. There is talk of a sitcom at some point if he can find the time. He is also writing his autobiography. He is proud of his Cockney roots and never tries to hide them onstage. At first when he started performing outside London he was anxious that this might be a problem, but his pin-sharp observational humour won everyone over.
Micky speaks as if his success is an accident, but it is really all down to hard work and talent. Yet he is typically modest about making audiences everywhere laugh their socks off.
"I can make no sense of it except that we took a few risks and they seemed to pay off. There are only two things to keep in my mind. I'm enjoying it and the audience is enjoying it. If we can keep those things bubbling along for a while that would be great."
With that he gets up from the sofa. Presumably to make a sausage sandwich.
Micky Flanagan is at The 02, Peninsula Square, Greenwich, from October 16-19 and October 24-26. Details: theo2.co.uk, 0844 856 0202

Breadwinner rolling with new model and 'Editor's Choice' award
Posted on May 10th, 2016 at 2:53 pm.
Three years after two of Portland's most well-known bicycle builders joined forces the duo is starting to hit their stride.
Breadwinner Cycles, the company founded by Portlanders Tony Pereira and Ira Ryan in 2013 are coming off a huge month. In April their speedy "Lolo" road bike was named an "Editor's Choice" by Bicycling Magazine and they launched a new mountain bike model.
The editors at Bicycling test all the best bikes in the world but they gave only 20 of them Editor's Choice honors. They considered 100 bikes in all and whittled that down to 75 before deciding on 41 bikes (21 mountain bikes and 20 road bikes) that "rose above 'great'."

The star-studded Purple Brigade look to leave their pre-season worries at bay as they host the Shillong side in the visitors' first I-League match ever...
Despite managing an impressive fourth-place finish in the last edition of the league, life has not been easy for the officials of the Purple Brigade. Prayag, their sponsors for the last season, opted to discontinue their association with the club after having been hit by the chit-fund scam. However, the players have shown commitment in the time of crisis and chosen to continue plying their trade for the cash-strapped side.
On paper they are still one of the formidable sides however their delay in starting the pre-season practice has done no good to the fitness levels and co-ordination among the players. Only a couple of days ago, the team suffered a 2-3 defeat in the hands of local minnows Aryan.
Coach Eelco Schattorie would miss the services of three players who would have otherwise made it to the bench. Goalkeeper Ishan Debnath, winger Snehasish Chakraborty and midfielder Souvik Ghosh will be unavailable due to their commitments to play in the inter-divisional tournament matches.
Though Sangram Mukherjee will return to the camp only later this evening after playing for his office side,
he will start between the sticks for the Kolkata outfit. Belo Rasaq will pair up with Anupam Sarkar at the heart of the defense. Dhanachandra Singh and Deepak Mondal will take the two full back positions.
Lalkamal Bhowmick will pull the strings in the midfield and C.K.Vineeth and Tapan Maity will provide width from the flanks. Mohammed Rafique, still recovering from an injury will have to start in a role of a withdrawn striker in the hole between the prolific duo of Ranti Martins and new recruit Eric Brown.
Speaking of the visitors, Rangdajied United will walk down the tunnel to play their first ever I-League match. Santosh Kasyap has a tough task ahead of him as many members of his squad lack experience of playing in the top tier league of the nation. Though the team lacks star-power, a number of promising youngsters will try to prove their mettle after helping the team to gain promotion after a fairly impressive I-League second division outing.
Among the foreigners, Lamine Tamba, who won the league with Churchill Brothers last season, has joined the club, bringing plenty of I-League experience with him. Tamba knows Kashyap from his Mahindra United days as the latter was the coach of their U-19 side. His former Pune FC team-mate, Edmar Figueira adds quality upfront.
"We have a large fan base who have high expectations. We have to cope with the level of I-League and the pressure that comes along with it," Santosh Kashyap told Goal.

The outdoor grilling/picnic season is in full swing. If you covet your free time as I do, you cook enough for 10 when only eight are coming to dinner. You're counting on leftovers.
You say leftovers is an ugly word? Get over it. Leftovers can make a great lunch, especially if you want to squeeze sunshine time into the workday.
So grill an extra chicken half or beef steak, pork chop, or vegetables, perhaps zucchini or red pepper wedges. Make a little extra German potato salad, bacon-studded baked beans, or chilled marinated vegetables.
All are worth repurposing for lunch if - and this is crucial - you treat the foods properly during warm weather.

Embark on a fascinating journey through Jordan and Egypt
There's something truly epic about this nine-day adventure through the spectacular, history-steeped landscapes of Jordan and Egypt. Wander the ancient city of Petra, relax on the Red Sea, and finish up among the souqs and pyramids in Cairo. As you tour this land of tenacious adventurers, mighty pharaohs and biblical prophets, the legendary hospitality of the area's beautiful Bedouin people will ensure you a warm welcome to desert camps and the tranquil beaches of the Red Sea.
Before booking on this trip we recommend that you read the 'Safety' section in the trip notes regarding special safety considerations for Egypt trips.
- Explore the incredible underwater world that lies just offshore at the Red Sea, and get into the laidback vibe of Dahab
- Spend a whole day uncovering the majesty and mystery of the world wonder of Petra. The first glimpse of the Treasury from the narrow path of the Siq is unforgettable
- Take an effortless float in the super-salty waters of the Dead Sea on a swim like no other
- Hop in a jeep and experience the extraordinary desert scenery of Wadi Rum, a rugged moonscape of huge sandstone mountains
- Sleep under the stars, meet the Bedouin locals and learn about their way of life in a desert camp in the far-out destination of Wadi Rum
This itinerary is valid for departures from 01 January 2016 to 31 December 2016. View the itinerary for departures between 01 January 2017 - 31 December 2017
Day 1 Amman
Day 2 Petra
Day 3 Petra
Notes: One day's entrance fee to Petra is included. Please note that when entering Petra as a group, a complimentary horse ride is included in the ticket price from the entrance point down to the Siq. Intrepid doesn't recommend that you take this option due to the safety and insurance liability involved.
Day 4 Wadi Rum
Notes: A mattress and blankets are provided. Please be aware that while the desert may be very hot during the day, it will still be cool at night and warm clothes and a sleeping bag are highly recommended when travelling outside of the summer months. Western-style toilet facilities are available.
Day 5 Red Sea Beach Camp
Notes: The ferry crossing can be rough on occasions and those who suffer from sea sickness may want to prepare themselves. This ferry crossing is frequently delayed and patience is required.
The fast ferry can sometimes be cancelled without notice. We may be required to take the slow ferry instead (which can take up to 5 hours and may result in arriving at Nuweiba after midnight).
In rough weather, there's a chance the ferry might be cancelled altogether, in which case we'll stay an extra night in Egypt or Jordan. The ferry itself is modern and has western-style toilets on board but these are not maintained once the ferry begins.
The only alternative to taking the ferry is flying over the Red Sea and not including Dahab in the itinerary at all. We've made the decision to continue to run this itinerary but we strongly recommend you consider if this trip is right for you. Other Egypt and Jordan itineraries can easily be purchased together and linked with a domestic flight. Check out 'Egypt Express' (XESB - Basix standard), and 'Explore Jordan' (EESJ - Original standard). Alternatively there are our comfort itineraries: 'Egypt Experience' (XEKI), and 'Jordan Discovery' (ELKD).
Day 6 Dahab

A safe, deep insight into ancient cultures and modern daily life. The people of Jordan and Egypt are warm and welcoming. Open your eyes, mind, heart and wallet. Great food, fab sites, low cost shopping experience.

Jordan & Egypt Express , September 2016
Kristy Ackerman
This trip of Jordan and Egypt was amazing insight into the culture and hidden gems of both countries. The tour leaders were both local guides who had exceptional knowledge of their countries. Overall the tour was excellent but let down by some poor breakfasts and 15 hours of ferry delays which is apparently common and should be better organised by Intrepid.

Our Featured Pets
Ranger is a 1 1/2 to 2 year old three legged Pointer/Hound mix. He was found as a stray in Texas County Missouri under a bridge after either being thrown out of a car or being hit by one and going off the bridge. Snuggle rescued him from a county shelter and brought him to St Louis to have surgery to repair a broken palate in his mouth and a broken shoulder. Surgery was successful, but after several months of therapy, he still had no feeling in his leg or foot. The leg had to be amputated. Ranger is doing great and doesn't let 3 legs hold him back. He is very sweet and loving and needs a family of his own! He can be a little bossy with new dogs until he gets to know them, but he currently lives with 4 other dogs and does fine. Ranger is house-trained.
Violet is a sweet loving girl who loves to play with toys., especially shiny ones. Violet is a black & white cat--a petite girl of around 8 months. Violet has all her vaccines for her first year. She is spayed, chipped, tested negative for Feleuk and vet checked. However, Violet tested positive for FIV. While some FIV cats get sick easily, most live normal lives when fed healthy foods. Violet has been health and happy for her short life! FIV is passed to other cats by biting--gentle Violet uses her teeth for her kibble, so her chances of passing FIV to a healthy cat is very low. Violet is a doll! Please adopt Violet!

Jewish Museum hosts provocative artwork of Soviet Union
Felix Lembersky's Jewish heritage and cultural background as a citizen of the Soviet Union during one of the most turbulent times of the modern age express themselves deeply in his artwork — indeed they are buttressed by this identity. The Jewish Museum is hosting a provocative, if at times inconsistent, survey of this artist's profoundly experienced life in paint.
The most ambitious work in the show is an interpretation of atrocity. "Execution: Babi Yar" (1952) depicts the 1941 massacre of 80,000 souls, 34,000 of whom were Jewish. Lembersky was one of the first visual artists to treat this subject matter. In doing so he used compositional devices from art history, specifically Gustave Courbet, as well as his knowledge of Soviet Social Realist traditions and his own gutsy paint application. »Read Full Article

Claiming one in the eye for the Palestinian trend of "Temple denial", Israeli archaeologists are preparing, for the first time, to open buildings from the First Temple era to the public.

Rated 3 out of 5 by SamiS Wanted to love I really wanted a pair of rose gold sandals, so I was hoping these would work out. The straps are stiff, and I could tell they would be uncomfortable to walk very far in. They might have broken in, but at that price I couldn't take the risk. July 1, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by BPRickels summer sparkle I've been looking for a summer sandal that is a little dressier than my standard tan colored flip flops. This little rosy colored sandal is a great summer find! At 43, it is a little out of my norm and comfort zone, but it is comfortable, cute and will be great for work, church, or date night. It is thin and flat which is fine for casual wear, but maybe not extended walking trips. Enjoy! May 12, 2016
Rated 4 out of 5 by JCrewLoyal Summer Fave... Love this sandal!! This color compliments every outfit...awesome with orange, warm pinks and corals, all denim and whites, and the simplicity of the styling will make this sandal the summer go-to in my closet. The only reason I did not give it five stars is that the edge seal is already beginning to peel after one week's wear. Hoping this does not compromise the integrity. May 21, 2016

1937 Buick Series 40 news, pictures, specifications, and information
The styling of the Buick Special Series 40 was modified for 1937 with several noticeable changes, mostly to the front. The 1936 Series 40 had a single grille with vertical bars; the 1937 model had horizontal bars and a divider down the center. The center section of the grille was painted to match the color of the body. The fenders was revised and given squared-off ends. Though not very visible, the height was lowered by nearly 2 inches, with interior room remaining nearly the same by due to the floors being lowered as well.
There were eight body styles to select from, including the convertible phaeton, sport coupe, business coupe and convertible coupe. There was also a two- and four-door touring sedan available with an optional rear trunk. The most popular Series 40 bodystyle - also Buicks most popular vehicle for 1937 - was the four-door Touring Sedan with the trunk. Pricing for this vehicle was $1020. This placed in competition with the Packard 120C, Oldsmobile L-37 and the Pontiac Deluxe Series 26.
Powering the Series 40 was an inline overhead valve Eight-cylinder engine that offered 100 horsepower. It had a three-speed sliding gear transmission with floor shift controls and a single dry plate clutch and shaft drive. The car rode on pressed steel wheels and braking was handled by four-wheel hydraulic drums. Options included a heater, defroster, dual side mounted tires, white side wall tires, and a grille guard. A dash installed radio with a built-in speaker could also be added for an additional fee.
Mechanical improvements to the 1937 Series 40 included a new oil pump and improved overhead valve mechanism which was much quieter than the previous version. The intake valves were updated and the cooling system was improved.
The Series 40 had a wheelbase that measured 122 inches, up from 118 inches the prior year.
By Daniel Vaughan | Jun 2011
Buick introduced the Series 40 in 1930 as a replacement for the Series 116. The Series 40 rode on a 118-inch wheelbase and powered by a 258 cubic-inch six-cylinder engine which produced 80 horsepower. Braking was through mechanical drums found on all four corners. The suspension was comprised of semi-elliptic springs and Lovejoy hydraulic shock absorbers. During its first year, there were six bodystyles to select from, including a Sedan, Sport Roadster, Business Coupe and Special Coupe in two-door configuration. A Phaeton and Sedan version were offered with four doors, with the four-door sedan with seating for five being the most popular bodystyle on the Series 40. Pricing was rather competitive, starting at $1260 and continuing through $1300. The Phaeton had seating for four or five, and had the lowest sales in the Series 40, total just under 1000 examples.
The name 'Series 40' remained dormant for a few years, making its re-appearance in 1934. They were again Buicks entry-level vehicle, though much had changed in these few short years. The Series 40 lightweight vehicles powered by an eight-cylinder engine that measured 233 cubic-inches and produced nearly 100 horsepower.
The name 'Series 40' would stick with Buick until 1959, when a new series naming scheme was introduced. During this time, the Series 40 would be powered by eight-cylinder engines which grew in size in power throughout the years.
For 1934, the Series 40 rested on a 117-inch wheelbase and had an entry price of a mere $795. The top-of-the-line Series 40 would set the buyer back $925. The four-door Club sedan continued to be the most popular of the Series 40, selling nearly 11,000 examples in 1934. Five body styles were available, including a two-door Touring Sedan, Sport Coupe, and Convertible Coupe.
For 1935, little changed. A few extra colors were added and the trim was revised slightly. Mechanical problems from the 1934 Series 40 were resolved, such as clutch and timing chain issues. A new bodystyle was added, the Convertible Coupe.
Changes occurred both visually and mechanical for 1936. The car now rested on an enlarged, 118-inch wheelbase. Over 77,000 examples of the four-door sedan were sold, which was a drastic improvement over the prior years sales figures. Much of the vehicles aesthetics received attention. The windshields and roof lines became more rounded. The spare tire was mounted discretely in the trunk for some body styles, and mounted on the left-hand side of the vehicle for others.
Sales continued to be strong throughout the 1930s for the Series 40. The car grew even larger in 1937, now sitting on a 122-inch wheelbase. The engine now measured 248 cubic-inches and produced 100 horsepower. Production continued until the onset of World War II, when the American automobile producers switched to aid in the production of war-time materials.
When production resumed in 1946, the Series 40 was the only model in Buick's lineup to utilize the prewar Fisher B-body styles of the postwar era. There were two body styles available, both resting on a 121 inch wheelbase and had seating for six. The four-door version cost $1,580 while the two-door version was priced at $1520. These were Buick entry-level vehicles, just as they had been in prior to World War II. Sales were slow, with around 3000 examples produced from the combined sales of the two- and four-door version. The 248 cubic-inch engine was rated at around 110 horsepower.
Major changes did not occur on the Series 40 until 1950, when the cars were given changes to their styling. The styling was modern and memorable, with the grille being one of the more distinguishable features on the car. Three vent-ports were now located on the side of the engine bay. The public approved of these changes, and sales were strong, reaching over 200,000 for the Series 40 and Series 40D. The Series 40D was a Special Deluxe model that had the same styling and size as the Series 40, but added improvements to the interior, addition trim and molding, and 'Special' on the front fenders.
In 1954 the Series 40 was given a new body that was lower and wider than it previously had. The front had a new grille design which many termed as the 'electric shaver' design. The front and rear windows were curved and there was enough glass throughout the drivers and passengers view to provide a nearly 360-degree view. Mounted under the hood was a new 264 cubic-inch V8 engine which produced over 140 horsepower. The vehicles outfitted with the Dynaflow gearbox had even more power. A new steering linkage and suspension gave the vehicle a smooth ride, complimenting the cars appearance.
By 1956, the Series 40 was given visual changes to its grille, ornamentation, and headlights. New bumpers were added to the front and rear of the vehicle. On the inside, the instrumentation was the same as other Buick models, a trend that had not been seen on Buicks since the pre-War era. Improvements to the engine meant an increase in horsepower, now rated at over 220 for the Dynaflow version. Sales were strong with the 2-door Riviera Hardtop being the most popular, with over 113,000 units sold in 1956. The price ranged from $2410 through $2775. The most expensive Series 40 was the six-person Estate Wagon which saw over 13,700 units being purchased.
There were many changes in 1957 to the Series 40, including a new grill insert, the 'B U I C K' name on the front of the car, chrome wings in the rear, along with a slew of other changes. In the back was a single exhaust pipe, with dual exhausts being offered for an additional cost. The three portholes on the side signified 'Super' while other models received four. Horsepower for the Dynaflow version had now reached 250 with 380 foot-pounds of torque. Sales continued to be strong, though they dipped a little from the prior year.
For 1958 the Buick Series 40 were given dual headlights in the front and an exorbitant amount of chrome. There was a circular ornament with a 'V', symbolizing V8, placed on the front and in the center of the hood. Dual horizontal moldings ran along each side of the vehicle, from front to back. Sales were strong, but they were still on the decline.
For 1959, Buick introduced their Series 4400 as a replacement for the Series 40. The Series 4400 was a very wide car with modern style indicative of the era.
The Series had served Buick for many years, as their entry level vehicle. The V8 engine found under the hood (except for the initial years) were more than adequate to carry the large and elegant bodies. Offered in a variety of bodystyles, the cars were versatile and accommodating to many individuals wishes and needs.

Ambry Genetics has purchased RainDance Technologies' new ThunderStorm™ system for genetic testing and next-generation targeted sequencing services. The firm is launching the system next month and has billed it as a fully automated and walkaway targeted sequencing platform that enables processing of 96 samples per day. "Our ThunderStorm System is a cost-effective solution that enables the comprehensive interrogation and accurate classification of all variation contained in any region of the genome with increased accuracy, greater unitofmity, and more complete coverage than any other sequence enrichment method," claims chief marketing officer Andy Watson.
ThunderStorm exploits RainDance's microdroplet-based RainStorm™ technology. The platform technology essentially encapsulates each target for evaluation of sorting—such as a single molecule, reaction, or cell—into an aqueous droplet that represents the functional equivalent of an individual test tube, and which is processed on a disposable chip that has no moving parts or valves. The technology has the capacity to produce picoliter-volume droplets at a rate of 10 million per hour.
"The RainDance ThunderStorm system is a true game changer both in terms of processing speed and data quality," comments Ardy Arianpour, vp of business development at Ambry. "We look forward to rolling out a portfolio of services based on this technology platform to our customers."
In March RainDance teamed up with Ambry to develop and commercialize a screening panel that will allow scientists to perform sequence analysis of entire coding regions associated with over 220 key drug metabolism-linked genes including transporters, receptors, regulators, and all pharmacodynamic and pharmacogenetic genes as well as all FDA-identified pharmacogenomic biomarker genes. The new panel, provided as part of the Ambry ADME sequencing service, will employ RainDance's primer design methods and flagship microdroplet-based RDT 1000 platform.
