This one bedroom villa is only steps away from the unspoiled beach of Playa Palo Seco. The villa is part of an upscale 23 acre vacation property that is beautifully landscaped and includes a well maintained pool and 24/7 security. 'Immaculate' is the best word to describe the property. If you enjoy comfort while communing with nature at a private beach that is unspoiled by development, watching monkeys travel the mangroves behind the condo on their way to the beach every day and unforgettable sunsets, this is the place for you. If you're looking for an affordable place to spend a few nights, weeks or months, this villa is perfect. The villa is located in an ideal location if you want to explore the Central Pacific!
I live in Fort Lauderdale Florida. I'm not able to make it to Costa Rica as much as I like but do really enjoy helping others discover the beauty of Costa Rica.
Steve Epperson purchased this condo in 2007
We wanted to thank you very much for the use of your villa. We had a wonderful vacation and stay at Villas Las Flores. Your villa is very well equipped and we lacked nothing. The large fan was a great asset as we were able to leave the a/c off except to cool off at night. Patrick and Miguel were very helpful. The monkeys came to visit most days. We would love to return in the future and will let you know once we have dates sorted out.
We stayed at the condo the week of Christmas for our honeymoon. The condo is off the beaten path, safe, and still walking distance to the beach. Also includes a pool. Condo was clean and kitchen was equipped with plenty of utensils. We cooked most breakfasts and dinners at the condo. Loved that Palo Seco is secluded but still close distance to more tourist areas like Manuel Antonio. Highly Recommended!
Everything was perfect, the villa is clean, confortable, fully equiped and just all we needed to enjoy a week away from the crowded towns.
The community is really nice, just a few other neighbors, great pool area, 24h security.
Just steps from the Pacific ocean, great beach and some minutes from Manuel Antonio National Park.
All the information provided by Steve was really usefull and the comunication was always fast and great.
If somebody is looking for a great place to spend quiet vacations at a great price in a confortable and secure place, just go there.
Thanks for all Steve and hope to visit your villa again someday.
Very comfortable and spacious Villa. Easy 2 min walk to the beach, you can see the beach when outside the house.
Nice modern decor, well stocked kitchen. Bedroom has TV with built in DVD and there were some games, books and info about the area. Beds were super comfortable also. The AC was able to keep the bedroom cooled off at night. Bedroom is between the kitchen and screened porch so doesn't have any outside windows.
Owner was super helpful and provided lots of accurate and useful information ahead of the arrival.
We had a use of bikes and boogie board for free for the whole stay and even had a beach chairs and shade umbrella in the Villa.
Place is very popular with retirees, everyone else staying there we saw was 65+. They all were very nice and nobody complained about our noisy 4 year old splashing away in the pool. Over all we and didn't see too many people in the complex. Few days we had the pool to ourselves, the most there was maybe 12 people in the common area.
Monkeys came by several times right behind our porch, some people feed them so they were looking for more.
Internet at the pool/common area was fast and reliable. They are some lawn games and shuffle board to use there too.
Super quiet and secluded, recommend a car if you want to explore the area. Road between Dominical to the south and Jaco to the north is newly paved and in great shape.
Playa Palo Seco was deserted most of the days, some mostly local people showed up over the weekend but it is very nice beach.
Over all we had awesome time and I would stay there again.
The property is beautiful, peaceful and quite, excellent if you are looking to relax and enjoy nature.
The listing is very accurate and Steve provided a great customer service, quick responses to my questions and sent a detailed document with tips to ensure I knew exactly what to find in the Villa, which was very helpful.
Playa Palo Seco is at walking distance from the villa, and about 3-4 beaches are just a 15-20 mins drive away.
The villa is very well equipped and maintained. I would recommend it to a friend or relative.
My boyfriend and I just got back from our week long stay in Parrita, Costa Rica at Steve's villa and I couldn't wait to write a review about my amazing experience! Villa Las Flores is in a secluded, gorgeous part of the Pacific coast. It's about a 2 minute walk from the beach, Playa Palo Seco, and about a 10 minute drive from the small town of Parrita. The villa had everything we needed and might even be more beautiful than the pictures show. It was the perfect size for a romantic getaway. The villa has a perfect set up with a small screened in front porch, a bathroom, small kitchen, bedroom (with king sized bed or 2 twins) and an amazing back sun room to watch the wildlife. The AC in the bedroom was awesome-- we only really used it at night to keep cool while sleeping, otherwise the fans throughout the villa did the trick. We bought groceries in town and made some meals at the villa, but also ate out at the local restaurants quite often.
The grounds at Villa Las Flores are beautiful and very secure, with a gate, guards, and landscapers. Patrick, the manager of the property, was very helpful. Since we went in the green season, we felt like we had the place to ourselves! The wifi didn't work while we were there, but I think it was due to a strong thunder storm that came through on our first night. We went to CR to get away from work, so we were ok without the wifi. :) When we did need to send an email, the delicious restaurant, Las Chicarrones, next to the bridge in Parrita had free wifi. We took advantage of the beach, surfed, visited Manuel Antonio, Jaco, went to the Rainmaker forest, relaxed, read and watching the birds and monkeys that came right by our villa 3 times!
I highly recommend Villa Las Flores. Steve was so helpful, answered my many questions and gave great directions and advice. I hope to go back again!
Everyone there was very nice. Nice, quiet place. The beach is great.
Did not find a couple of basic things but other pluses made it OK.
The kitchen is a bit hot.
Playa Palo Seco (also known as La Isla Palo Seco) is a relatively undiscovered beach 5 minutes from the working class town of Parrita. The beach is very private with black volcanic sand and large surfing waves and is perfect for endless walks or bike rides on the beach. The villa is located in an ideal location if you want to explore the Central Pacific on your own: its about 30 minutes to Quepos/Manuel Antonio & about 40 minutes to Jaco. Dominical is a little over an hour away now that the road from Quepos is completed.

It's been a hot and dry past couple of weeks, and area farmers are finding themselves in a pickle.
The lack of rainfall coupled with below normal relative humidity has put a lot of stress on crops, and, in turn, has shortened the food supply for livestock.
Officials with the USDA say the problem is widespread.
"It's affecting not just Missouri, but the whole Midwest,â??said Bob Garino with the USDA's statistics division. â??Iowa, parts of Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, parts of Arkansas are all being affected, so it's not just localized to us."
Right now, the Missouri boot heel is experiencing the brunt of the heat, and meteorologists predict that the rest of this week will stay hot and dry in Mid-Missouri.

Ever blow bubbles of those plastic rings. Blow fast, and lots of bubbles come out pretty much the same size. But ever blow slowly into that ring before letting the bubble go. It takes on a different shape, a different size, sometimes even a diffferent color. That's what playing a Martin Committee is like. You can let the note go quickly and sound just like any other horn, or you can hold the note back a bit to play with it.
Nothing is more contagious or tenacious than music. Once you are exposed it gets inside you and you can never get rid of it. It is also non-discriminating. It can be Ride of the Valkyries, In a Gadda da Vida, the Jeopardy 15 second thinking tune, your most disliked commercial jingle - it doesn't matter. Once triggered, off you go, like it or not.
I have found hearing the note helps ..sometimes I play it with the correct valve and then go back to it trying to bend it ... It's just weird how the horn seems to fight bending up more than down.
If you can sound Taps please take a few minutes and check out this site.

Formed by the collision of tectonic plates Roatan was virtually thrust up from the Caribbean itself. The beautiful and exotic "iron shore" is, indeed the stony residual of ancient reef, itself, with the many skeletons of the living coral still visible in its structure. Nowhere else are the wonders of the reef so close, since, here the reef and the shore are extensions of each other.
The island is hilly, best described as a "small Jamaica" with elevations as much as 1600 ft. providing wonderful vistas and a variety of wooded and "rain forest" habitats.
English is the language of the island, with all the Bay Islands being a British Crown Colony until 1860 when they ceded to the nation of Honduras. Being, now part of Honduras, business and government are now transacted largely in Spanish, adding an exotic flair to the island vacation.

text: Perfect location, perfect amenities. The staff was friendly and helpful. More than enough space for my family of four to be comfortable. The photos accurately depict the beautiful unit (except there is no water view from the unit). Loved the décor. The bathrooms are absolutely huge!! Everything was squeaky clean upon our arrival. It was very helpful to have laundry facilities right there in our unit. The decks & fire pits were a nice touch and afforded beautiful views of the water! We took advantage of the convenient car service on several occasions and were pleased at how well the service was operated. We truly enjoyed our stay at Fairmont Heritage and would definitely stay here again.

Dems Fundraising Off Benghazi, Too
While the Democratic Party has sent out spokesweasel Debbie Wasserman "I see nothing, I know nothing" Schultz and willing sycophants to shame Republicans into refraining from fundraising over the Benghazi scandal, the Democrats themselves have been doing just that.
Mugging for the press wearing well-rehearsed expressions of sincerity, Rep. Steve Israel (D-N.Y.), "Fundraising off the Benghazi tragedy is despicable and insulting and has no place in the national conversation," Rep. John Lewis (D-GA), MSNBC's Chuck Todd, "this has a whiff of politics to it.", Nancy "Tax cuts are Spending" Pelosi (D-Lunatic Gardens and others are acting high and mighty and holier-than thou while Democrats such as liberal icon Elizabeth Warren are sending out campaign letters asking for money to defend against those horrible Republicans whose Congressional Committee is asking for money to promote investigating the Benghazi cover-up.
This is getting to be very serious, especially with investigative reporter Seymour Hersh credibly linking at least one deadly sarin gas attack in Syria to the Islamist rebels who likely acquired it from Turkey, who in turn may have acquired the ingredients from the U.S. during President Obama's term.
No one knows for sure. Scientists who tested the Sarin are only certain that the sarin gas that killed a thousand people is not from the stores of the Syrian government.
Theories include the Turks using the gas attack as a false flag operation to compel President Obama to bring U.S. weapons and possibly troops into the fray by blaming the attack on Syrian President Assad.
They almost succeeded.
According to Hersh, scientific testing showed the strain of sarin was not that of the Syrian government and Islamic terrorists al-Nusra acquired Ziyaad Tariq Ahmed, formerly of the Iraqi military, who had "a track record of making mustard gas in Iraq and…[was] implicated in making and using sarin."
This was one reason President Obama may have decided to sheepishly step back from his macho "Red Line" in Syria. An additional reason may be the possible link of the sarin gas to our own country.
Again, this is all based on one legendary investigating journalist's reporting and needs a thorough, large scale investigation of each piece of evidence from the sarin gas to the reports of gunrunning by the Obama administration to the terrorists in Syria.
No wonder Democrats are calling the hearings "political" and "a farce." You'd have all of your cronies screaming the same thing in the press if you could get them to distract reporters from the details of the accusations.
Except you don't have "cronies". You have "friends." Just as you have "plans" and your enemies have "schemes."
So, what are the Democrats' plans? To yell and whine in the media that the National Republican Congressional Committee is "scheming" by sending out letters and emails to their "cronies" asking for donations to stop the Democrats from blocking the Benghazi investigation, while the Democrats' "plan" is to send out emails and letters to the "friends" asking for donations to stop those rascally Republicans.
Obama supporters at the powerful liberal group, People for the American Way, have a uniquely twisted way of excoriating the NRCC for fundraising using Benghazi. Here's their tortured logic::
"The House GOP's latest Benghazi investigation is nothing more than the exploitation of the death of four Americans for political gain," Michael Keegan, the organization's president, says in the email. "They're wasting taxpayer money to turn a tragedy into a phony scandal – all to rally their base and raise election funds."
"Only by mobilizing and turning out enough progressive votes will we be able to prevent these extremists from winning control of the U.S. Senate and taking even more power on Election Day," Keegan continues. "That means we need your renewal contribution right now."
Brilliant! Because the other guys are monsters for asking for donations to keep the Benghazi investigation going and "become a Benghazi Watchdog", "we need your renewal contribution right now."
Those are the twisted minds of the same party that also collected money and mined peoples' data using the Boston Marathon Bombing, Sandy Hook Elementary School tragedy and posted American Soldiers' coffins on the DCCC website.
I guess they don't care that they've been busted.

A Novel
Daniel H. Wilson
This book is available for download with iBooks on your Mac or iOS device, and with iTunes on your computer. Books can be read with iBooks on your Mac or iOS device.
They are in your house. They are in your car. They are in the skies…Now they're coming for you.
In the near future, at a moment no one will notice, all the dazzling technology that runs our world will unite and turn against us. Taking on the persona of a shy human boy, a childlike but massively powerful artificial intelligence known as Archos comes online and assumes control over the global network of machines that regulate everything from transportation to utilities, defense and communication. In the months leading up to this, sporadic glitches are noticed by a handful of unconnected humans – a single mother disconcerted by her daughter's menacing "smart" toys, a lonely Japanese bachelor who is victimized by his domestic robot companion, an isolated U.S. soldier who witnesses a 'pacification unit' go haywire – but most are unaware of the growing rebellion until it is too late.
When the Robot War ignites -- at a moment known later as Zero Hour -- humankind will be both decimated and, possibly, for the first time in history, united. Robopocalypse is a brilliantly conceived action-filled epic, a terrifying story with heart-stopping implications for the real technology all around us…and an entertaining and engaging thriller unlike anything else written in years.

Truly amazing
This novel will want you to read it to the end. It blends science fiction with the end of the world an creates something entirely different. A must read.
From the first few pages, I was drawn into a believable world reminiscent of the familiarity felt from living through a tragic event such as 9/11. Dan Wilson's novel about a world taken over by robots conveys the importance of working together as a species to the reader. It's a suspenseful thriller that will leave you reading it from beginning to end from the time you first pick it up. Definitely a good buy.
Great, great job, Daniel!!
Never did I expect that this book iwould be this-how do you say it?-FANTASTICI!!-when I first picked it up. Sure, if you are a technologically challenged girl like me, it is a bit slow coming at first. However, after the first chapter (or "Briefing"), it really starts to reveal itself as a true art form, and even though I believe that the term "Nothing like I have ever seen before" is overused, this is truly like nothing I have ever seen before. And, frankly, I have read a little bit of everything. Even if I am not all that old myself.
Also, it is really great to see something grace the top ten chart (number ten as I write this) because it is GOOD, and not just because we all know the name of the author. And this book is good, and for every one, even technologically challenged teenager like me. It is not just a freaky sci-fi robot apocalypse story that gets old real fast. It also demonstrates different aspects of what makes us human. Our love, our memories, and most of all, our simple desire to live.
I can truly say that Daniel H. Wilson accomplshed a great feat with this book. If you are someone reading this just to find out whether this book is worth buying; it IS. It will give you a whole new view on life as we know it. That is pretty major.

Thinking about swapping my regular 2.2l Ecotec engine for one of these :
The new engine has a 240mm 8-bolt flywheel (same as Calibra turbo?), and uses the F25 gearbox.
My current 2.2l has a 6-bolt 220mm flywheel, and an F23 gearbox.
Can I just replace my exisiting clutch and plate with a 240mm one from a Calibra turbo to match the new flywheel ?
Will it fit inside the transmission bell-housing / match up with clutch splines ?

Land ownership questioned for Vt. trailJune 20,2013Some question
trail ownership
DUMMERSTON Development of a trail near Dummerston has come to a halt as its ownership is being questioned.
The goal is have the trail follow a 36-mile former West River Railroad route from Brattleboro to Londonderry. Its attracted hikers since the railways demise in the late 1930s.
Representatives of the nonprofit Friends of the West River Trail said they want to work with property owners and possibly re-route future trail sections.
The Brattleboro Reformer reported that some residents just north of the trails end in Dummerston have signed a petition opposing further development due to privacy concerns.
The trail is well developed between Londonderry and Townshend. The trail group has begun publicizing the southern section between Brattleboro to an access point in Dummerston, which has brought up land ownership questions.MORE IN This Just InPUTNEY A local women told police someone stole $400 in cash from her car.

What are people saying about Kid-Jitsu?
Rigan Machado - Red & Black Belt Gracie Jiu Jitsu
"My friend, student and Rigan Machado Regional Director, Larry Shealy, is a man who I greatly admire for his work in developing programs for kids in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. He is a second-degree black belt in my lineage and I am pleased with his efforts in growing our family art through Kid-Jitsu University."
LEGENDARY TRAINER Duke Roufus
"We are kicking butt and taking names with Kidjitsu in our kids program... The curriculum has not only helped me be a better teacher of jiu jitsu for kids its also made me a better teacher and better at training. It's a great program and I definitely tell you to get out there and get on Kid-Jitsu it will help grow your school."
UFC FIGHTER Alan Belcher
"The Kid-Jitsu program is what we needed to take our school to the next level. The kids love it and the parents love the structure and safety. This program will grow your school and will retain the students you already have. I feel confident that my staff is trained to run the Kid-Jitsu Program like a machine."
Ultimate Fighter CHAMPION Colton Smith
"A good friend of mine Professor Larry Shealy, a Gracie Jiu Jitsu Black Belt and one of the best instructors I know, developed an awesome program. Its a train-the-trainer program a teach-the-teacher program... With Kid-Jitsu University you get online and learn the moves, learn them right from a great instructor...we are talking about 3-4 years worth of instruction with the belt system as well!"
"..at the time I had 10-11 students interested in BJJ. Now I have 100 BJJ students!"
"I have been in BJJ for 20 years and have been looking for a way to integrate BJJ into Traditional Martial Arts Schools. Most BJJ schools have NO curriculum. Kids and Adults are taught the same method and there is NO consistency between instructors...I am now using the Kid-Jitsu program to integrate BJJ into several schools and just one is a Karate school with 80 kids now learning BJJ!"

Bulk Material Handling Equipment Manufacturers and Companies
Granulated and dry bulk materials such as grain, powdered chemicals, sugar, flour and dry cereal require specialized conveying, mixing and processing systems. These bulk material handling and powder bulk handling systems are designed for the integrated industrial mixing, conveying, measuring and packaging of delicate, friable, sticky or free-flowing solids. Unlike parts, equipment and other products which are conveyed through fabrication, assembly and packaging by belt and chain conveyors, bulk solids and powdered solids require a closed screw conveyor, flexible screw conveyor or pneumatic conveyor system which prevents caking, packing, liquefying, contamination and agglomeration. Industrial mixers, dryers, pulverizers and vibratory feeders are integrated into bulk material handling systems for complete processing.
Bulk Bag Unloaders
Bulk bags are used as large volume portable containers in multiple stages of bulk and powder material processing systems. Materials are loaded into bags through conveyors by bulk bag fillers, a frame designed specifically to hold a bag during filling; bag fillers often serve dually as bulk bag conditioners by weighing the materials within the bag and shaping the filled bag into a manageable shape. Bag dump stations, or bulk bag dischargers, turn filled bags upside-down over a pneumatic conveyor, screw conveyor, hopper or vibratory feeder for the powdered or bulk material inside to be distributed to other processes.
Vac-U-Max is an industry leader who is committed to our customers' satisfaction. Our company offers a variety of premium conveying, cleaning and automated solutions.

Industrial blowers provide air and gas movement in ventilation, circulation and drying applications. Pneumatic conveying systems depend on blowers and vacuums to convey bulk materials, and drying and dust collecting stations within a bulk material handling system use blowers at multiple stages as well.View a full list of Blower Manufacturers
Industrial dryers are often integrated into the final processing stages of a variety of bulk materials for the final removal of contaminating moisture. Products such as dry cereal or flour are rotated through an air dryer, rotary dryer or flash dryer to ensure the bulk solid or powdered material has the proper uniform consistency and will not grow bacteria due to moisture.View a full list of Dryer Manufacturers
Dust Collectors
Dust collectors are devices that are utilized to capture hazardous particles. The unwanted particles are pulled into a filter or separator and then the clean air is released. This equipment comes in a variety of styles including bag houses, jet dust collectors, cyclone dust collectors, and more.View a full list of Dust Collectors Manufacturers
Industrial mixers in a variety of configurations are used to blend multiple bulk or powdered materials together as part of a bulk material processing system. Mixers used in powder & bulk applications are typically paddle mixers or ribbon blenders; sometimes powdered or dry materials are mixed with wet materials to form products such as bread dough or slurries.View a full list of Mixer Manufacturers
Palletizers are devices used for loading and unloading pallets which not only offer increased efficiency in a work zone but also safer working environment. Palletizers can be categorized into three different types: robotic palletizers, high level palletizers, and low level palletizers. Robotic palletizers are programmable hydraulic machines that are able to sort and stack items with precision. The difference between high level palletizers and low level palletizers is how the pallets are loaded. In low level palletizers the products are loaded from the ground level whereas the high level palletizers are loaded from above. All of these systems are fully automatic and perform at a much faster rate compared to humans due to the fact these machines do not become fatigued.

Located in the heart of Chelsea village on VT Route 110, the Chelsea Public library shares a red-brick building with the town hall. Alden Speare, born in town, was a resident of Newton, Massachusetts when he helped pay for the Romanesque Revival building in the mid-1890s.
Successful in Boston's oil and starch business, Speare responded to a fund-drive appeal sent in 1892 to former residents of Chelsea in the wake of a fire that wiped out the library. He offered $5,000 for a library if residents would match the amount to build a town hall that would house the library. The voters agreed and when the building was dedicated on October 25, 1894, Speare's actual expense was $6,650.
Several decades before the building was erected, a group called the Chelsea Literary Friends was established. Later, in 1841, 21 men and one woman bought shares to start the Chelsea library Association, using books from the earlier library and buying new ones. Locations included the Union store block, Amos Hatch's harness shop, and from 1869 to 1888, the Dana Mansion.
The Ladies' library appeared on the scene in 1865 and offered lighter, more popular reading material, including fiction, essays and modern literature. This collection, first housed in the Aaron Davis home, was later moved to the Hira Bixby studio.
In 1888, when the shareholders of the latter two groups joined forces to become the Chelsea library Association and Ladies' Library, fees were still being charged. The books and furnishings of both were moved to George L. Stow's law office in the Union block.
After the early morning fire on February l0, 1892 destroyed this building and all its contents, a group of townspeople wasted no time. They met that evening to discuss replacing the 1,700-volume subscription library with one that would be free to all. Not long after, the fund-appeal letters brought money, books, and Speare's generous offer. At March meeting that year, voters appropriated $200 to replace the collection if the existing libraries would disband and give up the books that had escaped the fire.
B.B. Sherman was entrusted with the money and was sent to Boston to select and buy books. Hilas E. Roberts, a non-resident born in Chelsea, donated to the collection, eventually adding 10,000 volumes. When he died in 1914, he left $10,000 to the library.
Other donors were the children of Harvey Hood, who purchased the site for the new building; the women of the Ten Pin Club who gave a library table and four chairs of oak; and Perley Chandler of Barre who presented a clock to the library.
The library occupies the right side of the Victorian-era building that features two low round towers with finials, an arched entrance, side windows, and marble steps added in 1903.
Inside, a plaque honoring Speare and stating his goal for a perpetual free library, is installed over an elaborate fireplace.

Welcome to Oman Society of Lipid and Atherosclerosis
Atherosclerosis is a vascular disease arising from an abnormal thickening and hardening of the arteries. It is caused by the deposit of cholesterol and other fatty substances on the inner lining of blood vessels, especially those in the heart. Due to changes in dietary habits and lifestyle in Oman, the prevalence rates of atherosclerosis-associated diseases are in increasing trend. The mission of Oman Society of Lipid and Atherosclerosis (OSLA) is to advocate for quality patient care concerning lipid disorders and atherosclerosis – through education, research promotion, development and application of standards and guidelines – and to influence national health care policy.

Jones serves as Richmond grand marshal
RICHMOND – Curtis H. "Bud" Jones, a decorated Navy veteran of World War II who served from 1943-45 in the Pacific theater, was the grand marshal in Richmond's Memorial Day parade led by the Richmond American Legion Post 740 Honored Seven color guard under post Commander Dan Vojvodich.
As an aviator radio 2nd class, Jones served with Air Group 30, which distinguished itself in four months of combat by destroying 110 Japanese planes in the air, a record for the Belleau Wood Air Group. Jones received the Distinguished Flying Cross Award for bravery in the campaign.
Jones and his wife, the late Becky Vermillion Jones, had five children: Hope Eimer; John; Jennifer Lawrence, who led in the singing of the national anthem and "God Bless America" at services held at Richmond Union Cemetery; and David. Bill Millhoan is deceased.
A retired U.S. Postal Service carrier, Jones is a member of the Richmond United Methodist Church.
The parade was sponsored by the Richmond Community Historical Society, with Sandy Judy and Sue Taylor as co-chairs.
Legion Vice Commander J.O. Henry, an Army veteran, was the featured speaker at ceremonies at Richmond Union Cemetery.
He shared information he had researched in his pursuit to learn more about the seven Richmond World War II veterans killed during service and in whose honor the Legion post is named.
The wreath carriers were Luke McMillion, son of David McMillion of Wintersville and Missy McMillion of Richmond, and Laurel Kemp, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Grant Kemp.
Brennan Scott, the son of Carl and Jennie Scott, delivered the "Gettysburg Address."
Sean Lyons played taps.
The Rev. Carol Smith, pastor of Richmond United Methodist Church, gave the invocation and benediction.
Edison High School's band provided music.

Scientists Discover a New Way Our Bodies Control Blood Pressure: The P450-EET System
September 30, 2010 (EurekAlert!) - If you are one of the millions of Americans with high blood pressure, more help is on the way. That's because a new research study published in the October 2010 print issue of The FASEB Journal (http://www.fasebj.org) shows that a protein, called P450, metabolizes arachidonic acid in our blood vessel walls to create a tiny molecule with a big nameepoxyeicosatrienoic acid (EET)which in mice, turns off genes responsible for vascular inflammation and ultimately relaxes blood vessels to lower blood pressure. This protein and genes are also present in humans."We hope these results will help advance the development of new blood pressure lowering agents that increase EETs," said Craig R. Lee, M.D., from the National Institutes of Health's National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences in Research Triangle Park, N.C. "In particular, we hope that targeted-use of these new therapies in individuals with a poorly functioning P450-EET system will ultimately prove to be an effective treatment for patients with high blood pressure."Lee and colleagues discovered this new protein using genetically modified mice with human P450 present in the cells lining the blood vessels, and using normal mice as a control group. The scientists found that the P450 caused the mice to produce EETs, which in turn caused the relaxation of blood vessels and lower blood pressure. When the mice were exposed to substances that increased blood pressure, the P450 mice had lower blood pressure and less damage to the kidneys than the normal mice. These results show that the P450-EET pathway is a target for the development of new blood pressure medications, and these findings may influence drug development for other diseases, such as coronary artery disease, stroke, and cancer."Whether you're a Type A personality, overweight and out of shape, or genetically wired to have high blood pressure, this research offers real hope," said Gerald Weissmann, M.D., Editor-in-Chief of The FASEB Journal "Having discovered a pivotal role for the P450-EET system, scientists can now develop a new class of drugs not only for lowering blood pressure, but also for preventing strokes and heart attacks."
Epigenomics Discovery Yields New Information About Fat Cells
September 30, 2010 (EurekAlert!) - BOSTON By creating a "map" of histone modifications in fat cells, investigators have discovered two new factors that regulate fat formation, a key step on the road to better understanding obesity, diabetes and other metabolic disorders. Led by investigators at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) and the Broad Institute, the study appears in the October 1 issue of the journal Cell."These findings help to demonstrate the power of epigenomic mapping when it comes to gleaning key insights into fat cell formation," explains senior author Evan Rosen, MD, PhD, an investigator in the Department of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism at BIDMC and Associate Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School. Fat cells, also called adipocytes, play an integral role in regulating metabolism by controlling lipid and glucose balance.To better understand how adipocytes control the genes that impart the specialized functions of these cells, the researchers turned to epigenomics, and specifically the arm of epigenomics known as histone modifications."Deoxyribonucleic acid [DNA] is tightly wound around proteins called histones, which, over time, can accumulate chemical modifications or 'marks,'" explains Rosen. "These marks instruct the cell which genes to turn on and off, and by mapping these modifications, we can gain important insights that would be unattainable through traditional means."Unlike previous investigations, which examined fat cells at a single static time point, this new study mapped several histone modifications throughout the course of the fat cell development, using a technique called chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by massively parallel sequencing or ChIP-Seq. This method relies on the ability to sequence tens of millions of short stretches of DNA (in this case DNA bound to modified histones) and then to reassemble results into a coherent genome. In addition to following these histone markers across time, the scientists also mapped the markers across species."Our study looked at both mouse cells and human cells," explains Rosen. "This is key because each cell type can accumulate histone marks that actually have nothing to do with fat cell differentiation. Consequently, by comparing two different cell models, we were able to sift through and focus on the epigenetic marks that appeared in both cell types."What emerged was a "core" set of histone modifications that formed the basis of a "road map" for the scientists to follow. And, by using this new map, the investigators discovered two transcription factors (proteins that control the copying of DNA into RNA) that regulate fat cell formation."We found two new transcription factors SRF and PLZF involved in fat cell development," explains Rosen. "We have essentially demonstrated how an epigenomic 'road map' can be used to identify biology that could not have been predicted through any other means." Subsequent experiments confirmed the proteins' roles in fat cell development: When either the SRF or the PLZF protein was decreased, fat cells generated at a faster rate and, conversely, when the amount of either protein was increased, fat cell development ceased."Although these particular studies were focused on the development of fat cells, we have reason to think that SRF and PLZF may be involved in the workings of mature fat cells as well," notes Rosen, adding that these new findings, therefore, have the potential to impact metabolic diseases such as obesity and Type 2 diabetes."The huge costs of obesity and metabolic disease, both in terms of health and from a financial standpoint, are making adipocyte biology increasingly important," he adds. "With these new findings we now have a better understanding of normal fat cell development, and going forward, we can compare normal fat cells to fat cells in disease states. If we can better understand why fat cells behave as they do, then we can work to develop therapies for obesity or diabetes."

Publisher's Description
Author Bio
Brian Jones is the senior pastor at Christ's Church of the Valley, an innovative community of faith he and his wife helped to start in the suburbs of Philadelphia. Brian is a graduate of Cincinnati Christian University (B.A.), Princeton Theological Seminary (M.Div.), and has served in leadership positions in churches for over twenty years. He is the author of Second Guessing and Getting Rid of the Gorilla.
Right away, Jones sets an effective tone. He is both strong and up front in his message, but also personal and friendly. His style never comes across as superior, and he adds comedy along with deep theology. His voice isn't alone in this. Jones uses numerous references from the Bible, as well as a number of other sources from researchers and theologians like himself. The most impacting part of his book, however, comes from the countless stories of his own life. Pastor Jones offers numerous anecdotes from his personal history, not all of them flattering. His real life experiences provide context to the ideas he presents.
Jones does run into a few problems in his work. His chapters are manageable, but can seem to drag on. Ideas aren't always consistent in each part of the same chapter. On a more theological note, not everything that Pastor Jones says seems to be traditional thinking. He mentions a couple of times how a Bible verse had different meaning in the past from what it has now. Whereas he always defends his points well, some still feel a little off. He is in no way discrediting the Bible, but the interpretations he asserts may seem "different" to conservative readers.
Hell is Real (But I Hate to Admit it) is a strong message to Christians. It not only covers the topic of Hell, but evangelizing and being a stronger believer as well. The personal story of Pastor Brian Jones makes him all the more qualified to write this book. I would recommend it to those who are looking for a spiritual challenge, as well as those who doubtful about the existence of Hell. Todd Naevestad, www.ChristianBookPreviews.com
Editorial Reviews
"Hell is one of those Bible truths that most of us would rather keep out of sightsort of like the crazy uncle who shows up and wrecks an otherwise perfect family gathering. In Hell Is Real (But I Hate to Admit It), Brian Jones shines the light on both the theology and the practical implications of this all too neglected topicand he does it all in a highly readable and accessible way. That's no easy task. This is one of the those books I'll keep on my library shelf for a long time. I think you'll do the same."
Larry Osborne, pastor of Northcoast Church and author of Sticky Church
"There are an abundance of good books, but not many that are important. This is one of the few. It's a book you need to read!"
Vince Antonucci, author of I Became a Christian and All I Got Was This Lousy T-shirt and Guerrilla Lovers
"In a time when many are trying to do away with hell, Jones accepts its reality without compromise and shows us Biblically why we must do the same. In addition, this book comes straight from Jones' heart. In it we are confronted with sound doctrine, but are also moved by the author's personal testimonies and by the abundance of illustrative ministry experiences that appear throughout. Jones not only effectively convicts us of the 'apocolyptic urgency' of warning sinners about hell, but also gives very down-to-earth lessons on how to evangelize. I hope every Christian reads this book, and every preacher uses it as a sermon resource."
Jack W. Cottrell, professor of Theology, Cincinnati Christian University

Clinical value
Improved medical service delivered without excessive cost overrun;
Improved medical service delivered with excessive cost overrun; optimised selection of antibiotics before administration
The purpose of the BIOFILM project is to develop a new bacterial susceptibility test called Antibiofilmogram®. An antibiogram is the result of a laboratory testing for the sensitivity of an isolated bacterial strain to different antibiotics. The new Antibiofilmogram® test takes into account the biofilm behaviour of the microorganisms to potentially better prevent classical antibiotics treatment failures.
The BIOFILM project gives French companies of the clinical diagnostics market, especially BIOFILM CONTROL, the opportunity to take the leadership ahead of their competitors. The international recognised experience of each partner of the project in their own area of business and their critical size are significant assets to face the international competition.
There is considerable pressure on hospital microbiology laboratories, which can receive and test more than 1,000 samples per day, to provide the best possible quality test results as quickly as possible, in particular given the rapid increase in multi-resistance bacteria, the growing list of super bugs responsible for potentially fatal infections and the reduction in the number of staff qualified in microbiology.
Given these facts, new technologies and automated solutions must be created to substantially reduce the needed time to provide clinicians with the following results:
Microorganisms can follow one of two radically different life styles: planktonic and sessile. The former relates to a free bacteria population that inhabits a liquid environment, while the latter takes effect as soon as the bacterial community begins to attach itself to a solid support and secretes slimy substances to form a biofilm. Bacteria in biofilm form are more resistant to external attacks, particularly from biocides and antibiotics.
Demonstrating the clinical value of early detection of biofilm in response to contact with an antibiotic will give clinicians the information for which they have been yearning. They are particularly eager to find a way of determining the effectiveness of an antibiotic to inhibit the biofilm, which is a bacterial behaviour that increases risk to the patient. This is particularly an important factor, with regard to the risk of infection such as urinary infections in pregnant women, immunodeficient patients, patients in intensive care or fitted with medical devices of prostheses and so on. Aside from extreme cases, being able to give better-informed prescriptions enables clinicians to save time and cost (assessed $2,500 per patient per day) relating to hospitalisation or outpatient treatment.
BIOFILM CONTROL provides a new, patented technological test - the BioFilm Ring Test® (BRT) – that will enable to assess the effectiveness of antibiotics to prevent or kill the microorganism organised in biofilm :
In vitro diagnostics provide the tools, reagents and databases needed to examine information about the patient from samples of tissue and human bodily fluids. It forms an important link in the treatment chain, as 60-70% of medical decisions are taken from in vitro diagnostics results.
The annual global market in Microbiological Diagnostics accounts for 7% of the in vitro diagnostics market, which is worth some 30 billion euro. It has been growing by 4-5% per year.
Improved medical service delivered with excessive cost overrun; optimised selection of antibiotics before administration
In hospitals: reduced hospitalisation time (average cost $2,500 per day);
In the workplace: fewer absences of work due to illness
A bacterial solution is dispensed in wells with particles that can be magnetised. When a magnet is put at the bottom of wells all particles will be attracted to form a central spot if no biofilm is present. As the biofilm is forming, the particles will be immobilised and the spot does not appear.
Analysis of the I0 (prior magnetization) and I1 (after magnetization) images with the BFC Elements software shows the biofilm forming index (BFI).

This is a really beautiful small acrylic painting, that sits happily on my wall alongside some treasured prints. It is a wonderful industrial style dock-scape, and I love the use of colour, and its swipes of dark and light -- they give great movement on the canvas. Lil sent a very nice note with the painting, along with a certificate of originality. I can't tell you how happy I am with my purchase.
