357420 Biostructure
The development of the transparent structure of lens cells is a unique problem in biology that involves symmetry at the molecular, cellular and tissue levels and highly coordinated interactions between proteins and cells. Our most recent work is on the differentiation of lens fiber cells in zebra fish. Separate studies on on the molecular interactions between proteins responsible for development of normal transparent structure and for the loss of transparency in aggregation diseases that include cataract, neurodegeneration and cardiovascular disease. Overexpression of human amyloid proteins is being conducted to quantify the mechanism(s) of amyloid formation and the impact on cell differentiation and function.

Theatre Unchained fails to recapture magic of 'Fawlty Towers'
After two series involving 12 priceless episodes of "Fawlty Towers" — one of the great sitcoms of all time — authors John Cleese and Connie Booth called it quits, partly because they were concerned a third series could bring a falloff in quality.
Watching the patchy Theatre Unchained production on Saturday night of three "Fawlty" episodes — "The Germans," "The Kipper and the Corpse" and "Basil the Rat" — I found myself wishing it had followed Cleese and Booth's example. »Read Full Article(2)

Publisher's Description
The Bear cubs are candy-crazy this Easter! But Missus Ursula and some Sunday school students tell the cubs about Jesuss resurrection and show them that salvation is much sweeter than candy! Includes a sheet of colorful stickers!
Author Bio
Stan and Jan Berenstain introduced the first Berenstain Bear books in 1962. Mike Berenstain grew up watching his parents work together to write about and draw these lovable bears. Eventually he started drawing and writing about them too. Though Stan died in 2005, and Jan in 2012, Mike continues to create the delightful Bear adventures from the family home and studio in Pennsylvania, in an area that looks much like the sunny dirt road deep in Bear Country.

NanceeGrand Rapids, MichiganAge: Over 65Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5Sweet Easter Story!April 16, 2014NanceeGrand Rapids, MichiganAge: Over 65Gender: femaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5It was springtime in Bear Country, and with Easter coming soon the bears were consumed with thoughts of candy. Their Sunday school teacher even expressed her favorite kind of candy, black jelly beans. One of the other Sunday school classes was putting on a play called The Easter Story, and the bears were excited to see it. The bear children were attentive as the story of Easter was acted out on the stage, with props and costumes representative of the time when Jesus was performing miracles and teaching his followers. Some people became angry with Jesus, and accused him of becoming too powerful. The story continues with Jesus' arrest, crucifixion and resurrection.
Jan & Mike Berenstain have created another wonderful children's book in the Berenstain Bears tradition. The illustrations are colorful and true to the subject matter, and The Easter Story is very well told and appropriate for younger children. This is a book that can be used each year when Easter approaches, and passed down through the generations. I found the book to be well done and enjoyable, a story that children can understand and remember. I recommend this book for families with young children. This edition of the book also contains a sheet of stickers for children to use with their Easter projects.

Trinity101 > ReviewsThe dust devil swirls into winds of it's own... dont follow.
Hanna - 5 years, 3 months agoLoving anything Cate Blanchett stars in, here is another to add to my list. The young star in this film (Saoirse Ronan of The Lovely Bones) really knows how to be an action star. I love films where young girls know how to kick some ass. The plot was actually pretty good, but a must watch and attention given to fully understand. I do not feel there were many holes in this plot, just needs more attention than most films. Great movie! Would recommend and re-watch.
Super 8 - 5 years, 3 months agoSuper 8 was written by J.J. Abrams .. although you see that Steven Spielberg feel to the adventurous Stand By Me-esc movie, this movie made me emotional and feel for every character. I couldn't stop watching the moment I started - the beginning is rather melancholy, but for great purpose. I just wanted to see where it was going and I did... I loved it. The plot was solid and even though it felt like a more rambunctious version of E.T. - the movie had great adventure and amazing young actors! The girl who plays Alice was really good!
Source Code - 5 years, 3 months agoNot expecting much can sometimes leave you with more than you even thought you could get. Jake G is a very good actor! This is one of those movies you have to watch from the very beginning, but if you do you may be surprised how intriguing the plot is... it draws you in. With the feel of going back in time, or history repeating itself - this movie was really good! The train, the time, the woman, the official - you get wrapped up in this movie! Definitely worth the watch!
Skyline - 5 years, 3 months agoNot only did this movie leave you wanting more, it was a total waste of time. The acting was terrible and the plot was completely useless. I had a hard time even remembering the name of this movie when we were playing a game based on movie titles, directors and actors. The entire movie was a build up to see someone kick some ass and it seemed as though they ran over their budget before the ass-kicking even began. We get it, alien invasion, run for your life, then become an alien.... You are better off watching District 9. This movie was crap and now that I've written this review... I can never think about this terrible movie ever again... now I know the name... that's all I wanted to remember was the name. Skyline = Crap
Your Highness - 5 years, 3 months agoYour Highness was a refreshing slapstick placed in the mid-evil times with warlocks and supernatural characters. Although I had never heard of this film, after watching I have suggested this hilarious adventure to others. It's no Princess Bride, but Danny McBride and James Franco make this film! If you were looking for a movie to make you laugh, be completely senseless and have tons or references to stoners and dirty sexual innuendos -- this is your movie! Other characters such as Zooey Deschanel and Natalie Portman are great additions for the needed eye-candy to counteract the raunchiness of some of the dialogue... Hilarious!
The Vampire Diaries - 5 years, 3 months agoVampire Diaries... what a surprisingly great show! Of course, we all know how some of those CW drama shows can go... Although they may have good plots, they are mostly cheesy. Stephan and Damon and the perfect 'good vs. evil' duo. The action in this show started right from the beginning. I'm glad I gave it a chance because I almost overlooked what could be one of my favorite shows now. I can't stop watching.. Suspense, romance, comedy, horror and drama... Vampire Diaries has it all... give it a chance.
True Blood - 5 years, 3 months agoLove, although it shouldn't be the kind you clean up with a mop and bucket - True Blood finds a way to make the fight for love a gruesome, action-filled, supernatural adventure. Blood flies through tooth and nail to justify how strong love can be. From the 1st Season, this series has made an impact on America's view of vampires, can they live in peace with humans? Sookie, an especially determined waitress, strives to keep her love with Bill... although, Bill does everything in and out of his vampire nature to keep Sookie safe from harm. The characters from the small town make this show amazing, along with the cross of devilish and evil ways of other supernatural bodies! Season Four coming soon!!!!
The Event - 5 years, 3 months agoNot only did this show deem itself promising from the very start, there should have been many more seasons. The Event possesses a story many people think about from time to time. I will mention that the show involves aliens, but strikes the match on how aliens may or may not be able to live amongst the human population. In this show, like humans, not all aliens think the same, which is where the problem arises. When the home planet of the aliens is threatened from extinction, the planet becomes uninhabitable causing a serious decision for the alien leader. The main characters are surprisingly well-rounded and derives empathy to care for just about everyone in the show... even some of the villains. This show should have never been cancelled.

Deciding when to call it quits and retire is never easy for an athlete, as athletes want to continue playing the game that they love but eventually reach a point where they can no longer do it at the high level they are accustomed to.
This offseason has already seen one superstar call it a career, Braves third baseman and future Hall of Famer Chipper Jones.
Joining him in retirement following the 2012 season are infielder Omar Vizquel, outfielder Hideki Matsui, starter Kevin Millwood and reliever Brian Fuentes.
Those are far from the only players who should find themselves on the 2018 Hall of Fame ballot though, and here is as a look at the 10 veterans who most need to hang up their spikes.
