In 1967, Model Engineering Works imported a single run of South-end combines representing Holman-built SN 1003-1006. These cars are quite scarce and command inflated prices. They were also miserable runners, and the truck-mounted stack motor makes repowering difficult.
Model Engineering Works announced a brass version of Moraga during the 1960s. Whether this car was actually imported remains a mystery.
MTS Imports brought in a very small quantity of the Hall-Scott coaches in 1987. These were offered as powered cars suitable for SN 1019, 1020 and 1026 (later renumbered 1018), non-powered trailers which represent 1021-1025, as well as de-electrified coaches used by the WP. The WP models are convertable to the two demotorized cars used in SN maintenance service. The cars were available as separate pieces and in two-car sets. Your editor tried to obtain a set when they were first advertised, but they were apparently all reserved by then. These are among the rarest of all SN models, and are seldom found on the used market. In fact, your editor has only twice seen these models in person. Were it not for their listing in THE BROWN BOOK, most people would consider them a myth.
Labelle Woodworking Company (5101 Ridge Road, Cheyenne, Wyoming 82009-358; phone 307-433-9909) offers wooden craftsman kits for the North-end St. Louis-built cars. These are revivals of the same models sold in the early 1970s. The combine represents SN cars 106 and 109, as well as 107 before rebuilding with air-doors. The coach is a model of 108 as used on the Meteor.
The Original Whistle Stop of Pasadena, Cal., once imported models of the parlor car Alabama in its Pacific Electric incarnation. An SN version was announced, but apparently never produced.
In 2011 Bachmann imported a Birney streetcar in the original green SNRR paint scheme. It had several flaws: wrong roof color, plain bearing trucks instead of roller bearing (needed for 60-61, the only cars verified with this paint scheme), and no pole tower. Generic Birney streetcars, which can represent SN 60-68, have been offered over the years by a number of brass importers. Like the Bachmann models, none of the known brass Birney cars have been offered with pole towers.
A basement operator named Paul Moore (sp?) once offered wood and cardboard models of South-end combines in the 1950s. There may have been other models produced by small suppliers which are not generally known. Your editor would like to add any of these that can be verified to this list.
MTS Imports landed a new model of the SN 650-class steeple cabs in the summer of 1999. The price was in the $500 range, but the detail far surpassed the old MEW models.
The Car Works also brought in their own model of the SN 650-class steeple cabs in 1999. These models also sold in the $500 range, and were available painted in several different schemes. The striping on these models was a lighter orange than that currently worn by SN 653 and 654. This caused some complaints about color accuracy. The paint on these models was carefully matched to surviving paint chips and is correct for the units as they were painted by the Mulberry Shops up to 1951. When 654 was later painted at Sacramento in the early 1960s, a much richer shade of orange worn by WP diesels was used. SN 653 was also repainted at the Orange Empire Railway Museum after retirement, again using WP Zephyr orange. The Car Works paint jobs ARE absolutely correct for these engines.
Ken Kidder apparently imported a Baldwin steeple cab of SN parentage in 1959. Your editor knows nothing more of this engine.
Model Railroading Warehouse offers a brass kit for a Baldwin Class-D steeple cab. The model is intended to be powered with the old version of Bachmann's 44-ton GE diesel. It would be a good start on 441-442 and 660-661.
Suydam provided two models of obscure prototypes. One was NE freight motor 1010 in its original 53-foot length (See our story NEW 82-TON ELECTRIC LOCOMOTIVE OF THE NORTHERN ELECTRIC RAILWAY for more details about the prototype). The second was a generic flat-bed work motor which bears a strong resemblance to SN 701, "Old Maud", a construction-motor which subsequently pulled freights on several of the lesser branches until scrapped in 1935. The latter model's Pacific Electric trucks are a big inaccuracy (needs St. Louis 47s), but if third rail shoes are applied, the discrepency will not be so noticable.
Bachmann has imported well-made models of the "Phase IV" GE 44-ton diesel. These are suitable for SN 142-146. Similar models in metal have been available from Keystone Locomotive Works. Model Engineering Works also made a pot metal version of this engine in the 1950s and 1960s, but it is inferior to the Bachmann model. The older SN 141 and 147, were "Phase Ib" engines with different hood vents. They would require extensive modification of the Bachmann shell, though this variation has been done in brass.
Bachmann has also produced models of the GE 70-tonner suitable for SN 201 and 202. Keystone and Ivers Engineering have offered metal kits for this engine.
Models of the SW-1 have been available from Walthers and in brass which can represent SN 401 and 402. The major modifications needed are outboard handrails, a new stack and a spark arrestor screen, plus correct horns. The stack base is available from Custom Finishing, part #284, or you can scrounge the base from a Kato NW-2. Note that the most common brass SW-1 models have late-model square front windows, versus the arched windows of the Walthers model which are correct for SN 401-402.
Kato's NW-2 can be used to model SN 607. Again, the main changes are the addition of outboard handrails, plus the very fat exhaust stacks applied by the Union Pacific during rebuilding.
Alco S-2s are available from Atlas. These can represent SN 403, 404 or 406. The stacks on all these engines were modified from the original Alco design, and all three were different. Flying number boards were mounted on the nose of 406, instead of the built-in side number boards as represented on the model.
Alco S-1 405 can be built from the Proto 2000 model. One could also use a Smokey Valley S-1 hood, part number 94, with the Atlas S-2 frame and cab.
Stewart (now a division of Bowser), a well-known maker of diesel models, has released a plastic VO-1000 with separate details which could make a credible SN model. The model without step guards (#4702) is closest to SN 407. While brass models of VO-1000s have been imported, your editor knows of none with the combination of features sported by WP/SN engines.
Stewart has offered an F-3 which can represent SN 301A and 301D. Note that these engines had the low roof-top fans like F-7s.
SN GP-7s 711 and 712 can be made with any of several models of this popular engine. Proto 2000's model would be my first choice. The Atlas model has an excellent mechanism, though unfortunately comes with cast-on grabs. The old Front Range model can still be found on the used market, powered or just as a shell which could be mounted on an Athearn or Protopower West chassis. Athearn's model has been extensively retooled and has a new mechanism. Note that with any conversion, the air horns will have to be removed from the short nose and the holes filled. The air horn cluster was located above the dynamic brake blisters.
Athearn/Roundhouse also makes a plastic kit which is a fair model of the Haskell & Barker caboose. The car's biggest problems are its passenger-type steps, rather than tender steps, and narrow end platforms. A new underframe (with truck bolsters moved closer to the car ends) and wide end platforms could be scratchbuilt for a more accurate model.
Overland imported a new run of bay-window cars (SN 1640-1644) during 2006 which came in factory paint. AB-1130 carried the boxcar red scheme numbered as 1640, and AB-1131 was available in green as 1642. Balboa and Westside imported unpainted models of these cabooses in the 1960s which are common on the used market, and a brass kit for this car was available from Precision Scale.
A shingle-sheathed WP cupola car was imported by Westside in the 1960s. It was available in both the common passenger step version (which correctly represents SN 1630, 1632, 1634, 1635, and 1637-1639), and a tender step model (that resembles only SN 1631 and 1636). There were several runs of the tender-step cars, and they are fairly easy to find on the used brass market. There was apparently a single run of the passenger-step cars, and they are very scarce.
Roundhouse makes a single-sheathed caboose kit which can be lengthened into an ersatz cupola-type car. See references to Jim Providenza's article on this conversion in our bibliography section. Due to the jig-saw puzzle method of cutting the car apart, it might be possible to make a fair model of SN 1633, a car which has never been offered in brass.
Red Caboose offered a nicely done GS gondola lettered for SN's 4001-4020. Unfortunately, this model has a 41-foot inside length. The prototype SN gons had a 45-foot, 10-inch inside length and taller sides. The number of panels is correct, and the car looks nice, but it is at best a stand-in.
The Walthers/Train Miniature double-sheathed boxcar is vaguely similar to the SN's Mount Vernon boxcars. The wooden-end model is the closest match for prototype cars SN 2129-2153 and 2329-2350 (the same cars renumbered). Ex-WP cars, SN 2301-2328, had either inverse Murphy (SN 2301 only) or inverse Dreadnaught ends. The steel-end model has obverse Dreadnaught ends with wrong number of wales, and the roof seam caps are all wrong. This steel-end car was offered with custom SN lettering by the Walnut Creek Model Railroad Society in 1987. These still surface occasionally at swap meets.
Sunshine Models, (P.O. Box 4997, Springfield, Missouri, 65808-4997) released resin flat kits of the WP/SN Mt. Vernon wood-sheathed boxcars in the spring of 2002. Kit 59.5 came with inverse Murphy ends and represented SN 2301. Kit 59.6 had inverse Dreadnaught ends and modeled SN 2302-2328. The steel-end cars were sold to the SN in 1948. Wooden-end cars were offered as a limited run in the spring of 2003. Kit 59.9 modeled SNRR/SNRY 2219-2153 as they appeared from 1919 to 1947, or SNRY 2329-2350 as they appeared from 1948 until retirement. Decals were included in all kits, and the steel-end cars were also available with Western Pacific lettering.
The PS-2 47-foot covered hopper from Con Cor is a fair match for SN 5001-5010 and 5011-5020 (the SN cars were slightly taller and had a more ribs). The Sierra Division PCR/NMRA sold a limited edition model of this car lettered for SN in 1990. A similar and more accurate assembled model was made by Walthers in late 2005. Use undecorated 932-7950, but you're on your own for decals.
PS-1 50-foot double-door boxcars have been offered as unlettered kits in the past by Robin's Rails, and recently by Intermountain and Kadee. Kadee makes the only model with the correct "arc-slope" side sill of the SN prototype. SN 2401-2500 were built with Superior doors, which would have to be scratch built in styrene, though this is a very simple job. The Kadee car is available as an undecorated model by special order through dealers, or direct from Kadee.
Until 1947, the SN operated some 36-foot wooden truss-rod boxcars from several different builders, all of which were nearly identical externally. (See our story A NORTHERN ELECTRIC MYSTERY: THE HICKS ROAD BOXCARS for more details about the prototype). Athearn/Roundhouse's original one-piece old-time boxcar appears to be similar to at least some of these cars in their earliest years, though nearly all the SN cars were built, or rebuilt, with Murphy steel roofs.
Bev-Bel has offered SN lettering on an Athearn 40-foot steel boxcar. This "model" is a total fake. The SN MEVER owned any 40-foot steel boxcars.
Champion Decal Company once offered the arched lettering used on SN's 40-foot wooden boxcars as set HN-144. Unfortunately, it has been discontinued for several years and Champion is now out of business. Sunshine Models will sell similar decals from their kits as separate parts as long as the supply lasts.
Clover House (P.O. Box 62, Sebastapol, CA 95473-0062) offers dry transfers for SN's 50-foot Pullman double-door boxcars (8725-03), and the 40-foot wooden boxcars (8725-02).
La Belle Woodworking Company sold the decals from their passenger car kits separately. These are HO-77-CD for the coach and HO-78-CD for the combine.
Custom Traxx (P.O. Box 641175 West Los Angeles, CA 90064-1175) began offering SN decals in 1997. They have offered sets in gold or deluxe for passenger cars, and also a freight motor set.
Correctly-sized Railway Express Agency heralds for combination cars can be found on Microscale set 8705.
La Belle Woodworking Company again offers O-scale wooden craftsman kits for coach SN 108 (O-211) and combines 106 and 109 (O-212). With some modification to the rear doors, the combine model can also represent 107, the Oroville car. These are the same prototypes as La Belle's HO scale models. The La Belle O-scale line was discontinued for several years, however, they returned to production in 2003. Decals for these cars are also available separately.
In early 1999 The Car Works (P.O. Box 4254, Warren, New Jersey 07059) imported an O-scale model of the SN 650-class steeple cabs. This was high-quality brass model that came factory painted. Correspondents who have seen and test run the model report that it is extremely well done, and the drive is superb after break-in. The original price was in the $700 range.
Car Works also produced a generic model of the Baldwin-Westinghouse class D steeple cab during the 1990s. This model is similar in size to SN 441-442 and 660-661, and might also be used to build models of 605 and 606. The model apparently was sold as an unpowered brass shell, but included trucks, pans and poles. It is not known if it was also available powered. Bob Zeman suggests a drive from Q-Car Company would be appropriate.
Model Railroading Warehouse also offers an etched brass body kit for a Baldwin Class-D steeple cab in O-scale suitable for 441-442 or 660-661.
Q-Car Company offers a epoxy resin model of the GE 50-ton steeple cab locomotive. This model would be a suitable start on building SN 440, though the other SN Baldwins were slightly beefier 60-ton models. Handrails and other specific details would have to be fabricated to match SN practice. The model is available as a body kit, a completely assembled body, or as a powered ready-to-run model.
Atlas offered an F-3 which would make a good start on SN 301A-D. P&D Hobby Shop also offered an F-unit kit.
Weaver Models has offered a styrene VO-1000 which could easily be modified to represent SN 407. The model's curved step guards would need to be straightened, the frame gussets reshaped, stacks changed, and nose number boards added. The model as been offered in WP orange-and-silver paint, which would only require relettering and the above changes.
Rich Yoder Models has imported brass models of 70-ton and "Phase IV" 44-ton diesel locomotives. The 70-ton model is close to SN 201 and 202, and the 44-tonner is suitable for SN 142-146. In January 2003, he advertised a "Phase I" 44-tonner (actually it is a "Phase Ib"). The model in the photo is a near match for SN 141 and 147.
A fine styrene kit for SN boxcars 2302-2328 is available from San Juan Car Co. (Kit # 125/125-P). The car is also available with WP decals to represent series 16001-18500. Your editor was pleased to assist San Juan with historical research on this model.
Darr Scale Models once offered a craftsman-type kit for the NERY/SNRY 40-foot wooden flatcars with optional gondola sides. Details of this kit are mystery, but one surfaced on E-Bay in 2003.
Clover House has dry transfers for SN's 50-foot Pullman double-door boxcars, and the 40-foot wooden boxcars in O-scale.
S Helper Service offered models of F-3s, SW-1s and NW-2s. No SN lettering is offered, however, any of these would make a good start.
American Models made a GP-9 kit which could be backdated to a GP-7 using parts from Des Plaines Hobbies.
Model Railroading Warehouse also offers an etched brass body kit for a Baldwin Class-D steeple cab in S-scale. This is the same model offered in HO and O scales.
Your editor is not familiar with S-scale, and cannot say if there are other suitable SN models on the market.
Tomytec produced a non-powered Japanese prototype N-scale steeple cab locomotive with pantographs. The model has wide hoods, but with some work could be a stand-in for the SN Baldwins. A motorizing kit is available separately. Tomytec also offered pantographs as a separate item.
LifeLike has offered a 44-ton GE diesel. The tooling appears similar to their HO model, so it would be suitable for SN 142-146. The model is DCC equipped. A photo of the mechanism with its shell on the Bachmann web site suggests the chassis and motor would be useful for kitbashing a model of boxcabs 410 or 420, but the motor housing is too tall to use in either the Baldwin or GE steeple cabs.
Both Intermountain and Kato offered an F-3 which would make a good start on SN 301A-D.
Kato also had a very nice NW-2 model which could be modified to SN 607.
Rivarossi imported an Alco S-2 which could represent SN 403, 404 or 406.
Atlas and Proto 2000 have done GP-7s which could be used to model SN 711 or 712.
Atlas imported a Baldwin VO-1000 in 2003. The engine was offered in Western Pacific orange-and-silver paint, with two numbers, and painted but unnumbered. The latter would be the best choice for a model of SN 407. Photos show this engine lacks curved step guards, so it would be fairly close to the SN/WP Baldwins.
Trainworx ( http://blwnscale.com/trainworx.html ) offers a 46-foot GS gondola. The model appears to represent WP 9101-9400, the 1953 General American cars, also built for the D&RGW. The car is not available lettered as SN (the 4001-4020 series were built in 1957 by AC&F and had slightly different ends). D&RGW cars frequently operated on the Pittsburg steel trains in the early 1950s, and the WP cars were also very common on all parts of the SN.
Micro Trains offered a Southern Pacific wooden caboose (#51000, undecorated) which could be easily converted to SN 1605-1607, and 1610-1611. The cupola would need to be narrowed by removing most of the pillars between the side windows (requiring some filling of the hole in the roof), cupola braces added, and truss rods fabricated. The position of the windows is not absolutely correct, but would probably be acceptable to most modelers. The correct paint scheme for these cars until at least 1952 was boxcar red sides on the body and cupola, bright oxide red on the body and cupola ends, a black roof (?), and probably black trucks and underframe. Lettering was white.
Roundhouse (Model Die Casting) offered an assembled wooden caboose similar to their HO car cited above as their 85801-series. The body is very close to the SN's Haskell & Barker-design cars, SN 1621-1629, plus other WP cars used under lease by the SN. As with their HO model, the N-scale car comes with passenger-type steps, while the WP and SN cars had full-width end platforms and tender steps. Extended eaves above the cupola side windows, diagonal cupola braces, and arched handrails at each corner of the cupola, are important details which would make a more convincing model.
A custom painted 50' boxcar was once offered by Aztec Manufacturing Co. as their 2017. It is not clear from the single photo your author has seen if the car was based on a PS-1 model or some other casting.
Micro Trains lists a 50-foot Pullman double-door boxcar which could be used to build SN 2401-2500. The Youngstown doors would need to replaced with scratch-built Superior types. Clover House offers correct dry transfers.
Micro Trains also offers a 40-foot wooden boxcar with wooden ends which is similar to the SN 2329-2350 series, though it lacks the distinctive channel sills.
Microscale offers the same SN decals in N-scale as are available in their HO line. Set 60-26 includes lettering for one SN F-3. Set 60-187 has enough lettering to do several switchers from the orange-and-silver or pumpkin II eras. Set 60-212 will letter several single-sheathed cabooses. Fans of Perlman green can use set 60-187 to letter the surviving switchers or the GP-7s of the 1970s. Finally, set 60-274 can be used for the post-1980 green and orange scheme.
Clover House sells dry transfers for SN's 50-foot Pullman double-door boxcars, and the 40-foot wooden boxcars in N-scale.
Custom Traxx offered set GN-62 which will letter the Hartland Birney in the original 1920 dark green paint scheme. Numbers for cars 60 to 68 are offered.
USA Trains offers several diesels which could be painted and lettered for the SN, though decals will be a big problem. They offer a 44-ton GE center cab suitable for 142-146, an F-3 which is a close match for 301A-D (with correct F-7-type fans), a GP-7 which could represent 711-712 with a few detail changes, and an NW-2 which with stack modifications would be close to 607.
Mike's Train House has offered an F-3.
Aristo-Craft offers a 1/20 scale narrow gauge caboose (their 82100 series) which has the general proportions of SN 1615-1617 and 1621-1629 in 1/24th or 1/29th scale. Some simple detail changes would be needed, such as removing the cupola window mullions and awnings above the body windows, plus adding sway braces and arched cupola handrails.
Another possible caboose is a similar wood-sided car offered by USA trains. It appears to be slightly shortened, but has the general window and cupola arrangement of the SN ex-WP and D&RGW cars. Again, curved handrails and sway braces on the cupola would be needed.
Special thanks to Robert Zeman for his generous help with the O-scale section of this page, and to Robert A. Campbell for information about the Car Works 450-class paint. Robyn Watkins generously supplied information on O, S and N-scale diesels.

Now, there's a simple and easy way to extend or I would say reactivate Microsoft Office 2010.
Here's how.
In general, you need to run an executable program called OSPPREARM.EXE. This file is located in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OfficeSoftwareProtectionPlatform>
Here's the detail
1. Run the command prompt
In Windows XP
- Click start - Run - type "cmd" and press enter.
In Windows Vista or Windows 7 (command prompt must be run as administrator)
- Go to Start menu, All Programs, Accessories, right-click on Command Prompt and select Run as administrator.
2. Go to OSPPREARM.EXE location and run the program
- In the command prompt, type " cd C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OfficeSoftwareProtectionPlatform"
- type "OSPPREARM.EXE" and hit enter.
After a while "Microsoft Office rearm successful." will appear. That's it you're done. Now you can use Microsoft Office 2010 for another 30 days.
* You can run OSPPREARM.EXE 5 times only. After that it will display an error which means you will not be able to extend you Office 2010 trial period. My suggestion is, run this executable program only when your Office 2010 trial is expired.

If you agree ,I'd move your post with a new title like: Mapear Map issue on Android Garmin Street Pilot 2.16 to main Garmin on Phone section, for better visibility and because it's a specific problem Mapear map's related.
Confirmed that app crash is happening to all argentine users, I suspect the issue is a combination of memory errors AND maps (Proy.Mapear). Using any memory tool, or compiling with MapInstall doesn't improve it at all.
I'm going to try a different approach: compile just a smaller region of the map collection: e.g., only Buenos Aires city, because clearly, there is an error in the routing information that they have compiled on some area of the map (hopefully not all of it).
For those outside Arg., let me clarify: 'Proyecto Mapear' are the best available GPS-road routing maps in our country; however, it is a community-mantained project, so the files are built with non-official tools. It used to work flawlessly on older garmin software (like Mobile XT on Symbian or WM), but apparently, recent apps like StreetPilot have some issues with it.
Unfortunately, project mantainers won't hear anything from this community, because they consider SP on Android, illegal and against Garmin
Question to all argentinians: which version are you trying to run? on which phone, and with what firmware?
I'll post results on my attemps later.
Mod note: workaround in post n.20
If you agree ,I'd move your post with a new title like: Mapear Map issue on Android Garmin Street Pilot 2.16 to main Garmin on Phone section, for better visibility and because it's a specific problem Mapear map's related.
If someone discovered how to mod the streepilot app or the mapear maps to make it stable and crash less, please post it here .
I think isn't just Mapear problem, but the crashes happen with all cGPSMapper maps .
May be someone else can confirm this.
Same problem here. Program shuts down after recalculation.
Street Pilot 2.16, SGS2, Jelly Bean 4.1.2 Stock. Last version of Mapear.
It's the maps from Mapear Project!! I installed City Navigation South America and works fine no crashes at all. Calculate any Route and works fine de 2013 version it's pretty complete, 3D Buildings, etc. and have small's towns too.
The people from Mapear Project is not protecting Garmin because SP "illegal" or whatever... Mapear is not involved with Garmin people, that's why they use cGPSMapper and not an "official" compiler for the maps. Is not a "monopoly", is just a free and collaborative project.
Seems there are misconceptions or bad intentions around here against Mapear. They work for free...!!! And they have the better maps because the members collaborations... Geez...
I think other maps from cGPSMapper will have the same issues. Maybe you can try with Tracksource from Brazil or Malsing maps.
Last edited by JHAres; 19th July 2013 at 08:39 PM.
That's not true. They don't want to discuss anything about SP because they argument to be a "non official Garmin application for Android", which is totally absurd, since they are not working with Garmin and, as you said, using a non official compiler for the maps.
Mapear moderators are the most authoritarian people I have ever seen on a forum.
Anyway, that's not what we're discussing here.
Mapear maps are the best for Argentina, unfortunately they won't work properly on SP.
I would like to know if the issue is the same on SP for iOS or Windows Phone.

The supply conductors serving this equipment do not comply with the requirements set forth in 310.4. In addition, the grounded conductors are not properly identified in accordance with 200.6.
To prevent induction from heating the surrounding metal in enclosures or raceways [300.20(A)], you must group all phase conductors (and, where applicable, the grounded conductor) and equipment grounding conductors together.

It was supposed to be the biggest night of the year for me. I anticipated it for a very long time. I've never seen it from the air at night before, save for the odd satellite image I've scavenged off the Internet over the last couple of years. Yet, when I got off the ground, having found a pilot to take me, it was similar to my first solo flight: Largely anticlimactic.
From the circuit - 1,200 feet. Gatineau.
I was expecting bright city lights, obvious road patterns, the ability to see a lot of things I can see during the day. I quickly realized I'd been fooled by those pretty images captured by photographers with truly current, high-end cameras, images that exacerbated the brightness and beauty of city lights from above.
After seeing Ottawa, I don't think we're in danger of really emitting that much light pollution.
5,000 feet. Looking south. Fisher Ave. in the middle, Baseline Road and Huron passing through.
Streets and roads looked amazingly like they actually do from the ground, if not a little dimmer. Lights don't overcrowd each other or mix like paint does in a painting; they coalesce smoothly and subtly. It's dimmer from above no doubt because street lights point at the ground, not at the sky, so you're not under the direct light of a lamp, looking up or out at it; you're above, looking at the surface from which its light is reflected, and not very well. Nearly the entirety of the ground is reflected light.
Prior to going up, I anticipated being (almost) able to capture photos similar to a photographer who has done an online exhibit of some of the world's largest or brightest cities from the air. His images are beautiful, exaggerating the clash of orange sodium vapour with bluish LED lighting, almost over-saturating his sharp, clear images with colour from the ground up. But my camera is not his camera. My camera is five years old, using a sensor that has an ISO rating capability of 12800 - at the cost of absolutely image-destroying noise. I'm pretty sure I had the noise reduction working when I took the pictures, but it couldn't do enough.
Zoomed out, looking at Strandherd Drive in Barrhaven - through a colour-destroying veneer of noise.
Seeing objects and buildings like houses and trees were almost impossible, even to the naked eye. I tried staring down at my street from 5,000 feet and couldn't make it out at all. I live in a neighbourhood that depends more on lawn lighting. The only orange street lights are the ones situated on corners or the entrances to streets. I couldn't even make out the light of my lawn light! If I stared long enough I could just dimly (dimly) make out the reflection of LED light on the sides of the houses in my row, being adjacent to a major arterial that recently got LED lights. The real bright things at night are sports fields, really.
Barrhaven. Fisheye lens, with a longer exposure time. That made the lights come out more...
The other problem was focus. I alternated between several lenses, the only real sharp one being my fisheye - the focus is manual on that one, so I just keep it at infinity and it's fine. Otherwise images were blurry in certain spots or soft overall. The only truly sharp image is the first one I put at the top of this post. The lens would focus, and the scene would appear focused, only to be soft or entirely blurry or overwhelmed by globes of light; I usually aimed the lens at bright plazas. Ironically, focusing on darker neighbourhoods produced sharper images.
Greenbank and Strandherd. Neighbourhood streets using lawn lights are invisible to the dark...
The bottom line is that my camera's image sensor is a dinosaur compared to today's camera sensors, and can't deal with the required fast exposure times needed for aerial photography at night. The ride is smoother, but you're still moving, and if you have the window open (which you really do need), the air still buffets the lens once you aim it out. An exposure time of at least twice, if not triple, the focal length is needed, which means your sensor won't be able to absorb any light unless it is so powered up, literally hot, that it can make out the city lights and anything else without any camera shake or blur. Can it do that without overheating and being so electrically influenced that you get absolutely nothing but the brightest lights and grain? Mine can't, not really.
The not-as-bright-as-I-expected Merivale Road.
The city isn't that bright. Not brighter than the naked eye sees it on the ground, and not that distinctive either. The patterns are very neat, though, and the differences in light are interesting enough; from the ground I can see every house on my street at night, standing out there. From 5,000 feet, I can barely make out any lawn lights, let alone houses. That's pretty interesting.
Eventually, I will get myself a real high-end camera, a current one that has real night photography capabilities. Then I'll make the city shine. Noise not included.
Before I forget, I shot a video of the whole thing using a suction cup on the back window and my Sony camera. Will be uploading that soon. That camera did a good job showing the lights pretty much as they really are from the naked eye. My pilot also took a few cell phone pictures - his phone appeared to do a better job than my dSLR camera.

Tropical Fish Keeping - Aquarium fish care and resources
- Beginner Planted Aquarium
- - Juwel Rekord 600 T8 Lightning
Juwel Rekord 600 T8 Lightning I am soon going to change the light after one year and do not know what should i get. Juwel lightning have Day-Lite and Warm-Lite both at 15W each. What should i get to maximize the plant growth? I know that the light is low but at least I try to give more. Also it is right that after one year the light will deteriorate that is why we should change them at a yearly bases right? Thanks |
get a better light and it will help keep the plants stay healthier for a longer time.plus they grow better and lusher with it |
The Day-lite should be better, but do you have a kelvin rating for it? "Daylight" is usually around 6500K which is fine. "Warm" is less kelvin, more red and less blue, and might also work (depending upon the rating) but the colour rendition will be different. The "daylight" should bring out the natural colours on fish and plants. T8 tubes last 3 years. The old T12 (the "fatter" tubes) had to be replaced every year, or so most suggested. |
These bulbs are the Juwel make. They do not have any Kelvin rating for them. I will get the Day Lite then. Also in the website they suggest to be changed every year because the light will deteriorate and plants will not stay healthy any more. That is why i am asking here to see if this is true. |
The website is out to sell their products, and unfortunately this has to be remembered when you are taking "advice" from manufacturers or retailers. I used to replace my T12's every year. I now have T8 tubes and since installing them in October 2008 and July 2009 I have not replaced them and I intend to go 3 years before I do. |
Ok thank you |

Ideogram of human chromosome 16, the location of PKD1 gene is indicated by the red vertical line. This graph was generated by using UCSC genome browser. | |
Fusion genes (updated 2016) | PKD1 (16p13.3) / SLIT1 (10q24.1) | UBE2J2 (1p36.33) / PKD1 (16p13.3) |
Gene structure of PKD1, showing the intron/exon structure. Exons are shown with solid box; introns are shown with thin line arrow heads; 3' and 5' UTR regions are indicated by open boxes. Some exons numbers are labelled above. This graph was generated by using UCSC genome browser. | |
Description | This gene has 46 exons that span ~52 kb of genomic sequence. Exons 1-33 are located in a genomic region which is duplicated six times on the same chromosome (~13-16 Mb proximal to PKD1 on the short arm of chromosome 16), resulting in six pseudogenes. A Mirtron family microRNA gene, miR-1225, is lying within intron 45 of PKD1, the function of this microRNA is currently unknown. |
Transcription | The 14,5 kb transcript has two different isoforms as a result of alternative splicing. The longer variant, isoform I (NM_001009944), has a 12909 bp open reading frame. The short variant, isoform II (NM_000293), uses an alternate acceptor splice site, 3 nt downstream of that used by isoform I, at the junction of intron 31 and exon 32. This results in an isoform (variant II) that is one amino acid shorter than isoform I. |
Pseudogene | The six pseudogenes that result from duplication of PKD1 exon 1 through 33 are located on chromosome 16p13.1 and have 97-99% identity to PKD1. Those pseudogenes are transcripted into mRNA species with suboptimal start codons, thus they are not translated. |

Protein structure of polycystin-1 (PC1). The details of the protein domain structures are shown. Abreviation: GPS, GPCR Proteolystic Site; WSC, cell Wall integrity and Stress response Component; PLAT, (Polycystin-1, Lipoxygenase, Alpha-Toxin); REJ, Receptor for Egg Jelly. This graph was generated by using ExPASY Proteomics Server PROSITE module with some modifications. | |
Description | The longer form of polycystin-1, isoform I, has 4303 aa. It is a 460 kDa membrane protein which has the structure of a receptor or adhesion molecule. The large extracellular N-terminal region consisting of a variety of domains, including 12 PKD domains (an immunoglobin-like fold), two leucine-rich repeats, C-type lectin domain, WSC domain, GPS domain and REJ domain. The short intracellular C-terminal region has 197 aa, containing a coiled-coil domain that interact with polycystin-2 and a G-protein binding domain. Between the N and C-terminal is a large transmembrane region (1032 aa) that has 11 transmembrane domains. Polycystin-1 is cleaved at the G protein-coupled receptor proteolytic site (GPS) domain, resulting in a 150 kDa C-terminal fragment and a 400 kDa N-terminal fragment that tether to the membrane. This cleavage is suggested to be important for protein activation. |
Expression | Polycystin-1 is widely expressed in adult tissue, with high levels in brain and moderate expression in kidney. In fetal and adult kidney, the expression was restricted to the epithelial cells with highest expression in the embryo and downregulation in adult. In smooth, skeletal and cardiac muscles, expression is also found. |
Localisation | Polycystin-1 is located in the primary cilium, a single hair-like organelle projecting from the surface of most mammalian cells. It is also found in the plasma membrane at focal adhesions, desmosomes, and adherens junctions. The C-terminal tail of PC1 has been reported to be cleaved and migrate to the nucleus, regulating gene expression. |
Function | In the kidney tubule, polycystin-1 was shown to serve as a mechanoreceptor that senses fluid flow in the tubular lumen, triggering Ca2+ influx through polycystin-2, a Ca2+ channel that interact with PC1 in the C-terminal tail, consequently affecting the intracellular calcium and cyclic AMP (cAMP) levels. It is also involved in cell-to-cell or cell-to-matrix interactions. |
Homology | The characterized domains of polycystin-1 are regions highly conserved among species (from human to fish). A homology and also an interaction partner in the same signaling passway, polycystin-2, is located on 4q21. |
Mutations |
Germinal | Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common inherited kidney disease. Up to 85% of ADPKD cases are caused by mutations in PKD1 gene. With the current mutation detection methods, definite pathogenic mutations (nonsense, truncation and canonical splice defects) are identified in approximately 60% of the cases. Large deletions/insertions can be found in ~4% of cases. Comprehensive analyses, using bioinformatics analysis tools can identify missense mutations that may account for the disease in an additional 22% to 37% of the ADPKD patients. There are no mutation hot spots for PKD1, which means mutations are usually private, with 70% of the mutations unique to a single family, and spread throughout the entire gene. Mutations on 5' of the gene are associated with a more sever disease compared to those occurring in 3' region. The ADPKD Mutation Database at Mayo Clinic (http://pkdb.mayo.edu/), the most complete one for ADPKD, documents 416 pathogenic mutations for PKD1 in a total of 616 families. |
Somatic | The pathogenesis of ADPKD has been attributed to a two-hit mechanism, with somatic and germline mutations combining to inactivate one of the PKD genes, leading to loss of function, thus initiating the disease process. There are significantly less somatic PKD mutations listed in the ADPKD Mutation Database, only 9 for PKD1 (http://pkdb.mayo.edu/). Due to the limited availability of kidney cyst DNA and the complications associated with PKD1 genotyping, analyzing somatic mutations in ADPKD was proven to be difficult. |

Note | |
Entity | Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) |
Disease | ADPKD is a monogenic multi-systemic disorder characterized by age-dependent development and progressive enlargement of bilateral, multiple renal cysts, resulting in chronic renal failure typically in mid to late adulthood. The cysts are caused by abnormal proliferation of renal tubule epithelial cells as a result of inactivation of the PKD genes by mutations. Mutations in PKD1 gene account for 85% of the ADPKD cases and for the early-onset, more sever form. Those cysts will increase gradually in both size and number, leading to massive kidney enlargement and progressive decline in renal function. ADPKD has a prevalence of approximately 1 in 400 to 1 in 1000 live births in all races, affecting approximately 12,5 million individuals worldwide. Although ADPKD accounts for 4,4% of all patients requiring renal replacement therapy, it is characterized by very large phenotypic variability, ranging from presentation in-utero with enlarged, cystic kidneys to incidental diagnosis in the elderly with adequate renal function. Extra-renal manifestations include cysts in the liver, pancreas, seminal vesicles and arachnoid membranes. Intracranial aneurysm is about five times more common than in the general population and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. |
Prognosis | About 50% of patients with ADPKD will progress to end stage renal disease (ESRD) by the age of 60 years, with hemodialysis or kidney transplant being the only currently available treatment, though several potential drugs have been entered into clinical trials. Hypertension is present in about 50% of ADPKD patients age 20-30 years with clinically normal renal function; this is approximately one decade earlier than the onset of primary hypertension in the general population. |

Possible Startong Issue
Last week I got my oil changed, tranny fluid changed, diff fluid changed......since then the car has been shiftin smoother and no noise from rear diff when first start in morning......
Now the problem....recently when I start...right before the actual engine fires up...I hear a minor tick/click noise, it sounds like its coming from the bottom of the engine... Thoughts???? |
Could be either the injectors or the dreaded LS engine lifter tick.
Its an L99...would that matter?....and wouldnt it be covered under warranty??
Should be covered.

im glad i havent tuned it yet??
how do i approach the dealership about this?? |

Abstract: | This paper Highlights on 'Cyberspace', an Electronic space simulated for communication network founded by post Industrialized Society, where the assembly line of mass production is not followed; producing standardized commodities following Fordian line has almost vanished and it is supplemented by non-standardized non-prototypical craft production; and in the realm of division labor, Taylorian paradigm is substituted by workshop-based flexible alternating division of labor. This deployment of high-tech in the simple commodity production is based on the linguistic corpus collected from the heterogeneous so-called locals and those local choices are stored in the computerized data-repertoire. Local choices are considered for the sake of creating niche market. Thus, the phenomenon of globalization (Global Local) that is operating within the cyberspace has emerged. This is also reflected in the languages of electronic ads. What author has referred to as Electronic Capitalism, subscribing the Print Capitalism a la Benedict Anderson, was elaborated in reference to the phenomenon "globalization". What is this hyper-domain of cyberspace of communication? In the so-called global village, an exclusive interactive zone is created with the help of cybernetic science. This new communication space has emerged due to the introduction of electronic capitalism supplementing the print capitalism. Due to the proliferation as well as explosion of electronic industry, this new space enjoys a dominant position to enhance the quickest communication. Ideal speaker-hearer, though they are in physical Diaspora, communicate in the cyberspace and they are exchanging their languages as apparent reciprocal donor-receptors, and therefore, code mixing (cohabitation or encroachment?) is an usual phenomena in this cyberspace. Baudrillard (1975) aptly called this age as an 'age of simulation", third order of pretension, where he found signs as representation of themselves. In this third order, the sign of creative computer, without any signifier, endowed with human faculty, does not refer to anything outside itself, viz. creative speaking subject -- a presence whose absence they mark -- but rather serve to mask the absence of any exterior -- the relation between the real and representation or "representational" imaginary is dissolved and hyper-realty of cyber-space begins, where any the self -- referential signs emerges as real 'reality' by veiling the "real" self. Thus, intelligent computer or talking machines are "real" talking beings in this third order instead of speaking subjects. In this simulated cyberspace, non-signifying electronic devices endowed with human faculty re-inscribe a regime of phonocentrism Deluze and Guattari (1977) or some thing more than phonic, it may be termed as electrocentrism to cover all the possible manifestations of electronic media). Deluze and Guattari (1977) argued that the language and its subsequent semiotic process within the ambit of capitalism are not related to encoded signifying processes but it is concerned with decoded flows, i.e. the material flows of electric language, which is a simulacrum of something without semantic content. It is the capacity of modern language technology to acquire the power of fetish of "other" without being a participant in the other's domain. Computer, an impersonal machine, now talks with the "other" by deploying, nor logocentric, neither phonocentric, but electrocentnic techno-discourse. This techno-discourse, in the realm of technical intelligentsia's culture of critical discourse, has become algocentric meta discourse, i.e., a discourse, which is guided by the formal, computable, and algorithmic principles of meta mathematics./L/Keywords: algocentric discourse, electronic capitalism, electrocentrism, phonocentrism, cyberspace |

Now there's two ways for me to deal with the new tapered steerer forks. This is the newest version an actual tapered 7005 head tube. I have been waiting for this to be available here in the USA for quite some time.
The only drawback for now is that I can only get one size-131 mm. This may work well on the bike in the photo but maybe not on your bike. I'm hoping that other sizes become available soon.
Here's the second version that I have been using for about two years. The tubing comes in one meter lengths so I can make any size head tube for any size frame, as long as it is three meters or less.
This version might not be quite as hip as the tapered version but it is what I have and I'll keep building with this tube until something better comes along. It is hard to say if the newer tapered tube is better but it definitely looks nicer on a smaller frame.

week 4 – focus52 – leading lines
This weeks theme evoked an unexpected irony for me… I had an idea in my head of what I wanted to photograph but like always I end up with something completely different. This is good. I tend to be a planner and when things don't go exactly the way "I plan " I quite frequently feel overwhelmed. For some reason this weeks theme has helped me realize that life does not always go as planned and that you have to accept and deal with what is dealt to you. Easier said then done, right? Knowing is half the battle.
~ Don't sweat the small stuff! aaahhhhhhhh

PPK on JavaScript: The DOM - Part 1
PPK on JavaScript: The DOM - Part 1
JavaScript allows you to restructure an HTML document, for instance by adding, removing, or reordering the items shown on the page. In fact, without the possibility of restructuring the document, or at the very least providing some feedback (such as text in a form field or an image swap), JavaScript is pretty much worthless.
The example script that best demonstrates this restructuring is Sandwich Picker. Users can quickly and easily specify the sandwiches they want to order, and the script gathers the data by moving the
To change anything on a page, JavaScript needs access to all elements in the HTML document. Allowing this access and providing for methods and properties to query the current status of the HTML elements, or to add, move, or remove HTML elements, is the job of the Document Object Model, or DOM.
In 1998, W3C published its Level 1 DOM specification, which allowed access to and manipulation of every single element in an HTML page, from the document itself to the lowliest text node. Better still, all browser vendors actually implemented this recommendation, and as a result, incompatibility problems in the DOM have almost (but not entirely) disappeared.
The W3C Level 1 DOM was created to allow any programming language to read and change XML documents. Since properly written XHTML is XML, and properly written HTML can be interpreted as such, the DOM can also be used by JavaScript to read and change HTML documents.
The greater part of this chapter discusses the Level 1 DOM, but we'll also take a look at the old Level 0 DOM, especially at its useful form-field properties.
We'll mainly use Sandwich Picker and Usable Forms as examples, since these scripts use the document-restructuring possibilities of the Level 1 DOM to the greatest effect.
XML Documents: Remember: the W3C DOM can also be used on XML documents. We'll discuss an example of this in 10B and 10C.
W3C DOM Compatibility Tables: As you'll notice in this chapter, the W3C DOM implementation of the browsers are occasionally incompatible. In order to guide Web developers through this maze of problems, I set up the W3C DOM Compatibility Tables at www.quirksmode.org.
Before we delve deeply into the DOM, let's discuss a few general concepts.
s that contain sandwiches to the order table—in other words, by changing the document structure.
A: Concepts
To the W3C DOM, everything in an HTML document is a node. The entire document is a document node; every HTML tag, such as
,

, or even

, is an element node; and the texts contained in these elements are text nodes. Furthermore, HTML attributes like ID are attribute nodes, and even comments are comment nodes.

Alive and Kickin'
I recently did a google photo search for kickboxing and look what popped up?
Yup, that's me! I guess I've written about how much I love kickboxing enough that I made it to google's search engine.
I've been having a hard time keeping up in my kickboxing class lately which is probably due to the 30 pounds I've regained but I'm still fighting and I'm not giving up.
I really wish I didn't need a paycheck because I would love to be able to spend hours at the gym everyday instead of sitting at a desk shuffling papers all day. I'm still trying to get my ass out of bed early enough in the morning to go for a run or get to the gym but that just hasn't been happening. I'm walking over 3 miles a day back and forth to the train station, walking at lunch when weather permits, kickboxing two days a week and staying active but it just hasn't been enough to compensate for sitting on my ass all day at work and snacking way too often.
I'm still here reading all of your posts while commuting but my service is sporadic so I haven't been able to comment much which I miss. I hope to get better at this time management stuff, get my ass out of bed early enough to work out and hit the lottery so I can quit my job and get back to the gym full time. A girl can dream...
14 comments:
Sedentary jobs suck, don't they? That is my problem. While I seem very active, that is because my job is sitting and I can't do anything about it because of the nature of the job. I wish I could have a treadmill desk, but with a footpedal, that doesn't work.

ReplyDelete Congrats on the google-fame!
I feel your pain regarding trying to balance life and maintain a loss - I can't imagine that is easy! You are doing what you can and that is great. I am sure the 3 mile walk helps quite a bit and I am happy to hear you are able to attend kickboxing at least a couple times during the week. Best of luck finding that ever-elusive balance! I know you can do it (just keep those kickboxing pics handy for extra motivation!)- AnonymousJuly 7, 2012 at 7:39 PM
Obesity is a serious problem in the society today. As an obese person, I don't know exactly what to do and where to start to fight this excess weight that I have for many years now. Searching over the internet helps me a lot to gather helpful tips and advice. Oh! by the way, have you heared something about the Roca Labs Formula? I have visited this site - youtube.com/user/RocaLabsReviews and there are many possitive effect to the users. I hope that this could be a permanent solution for obesity.

Don't get me wrong. This is a super cute dress. Perhaps it's just the one that I received but the construction is not well done. The neckline is completely uneven. On one side, there seems to be more fabric and the neckline does not lay flat. It puckers. I would suggest trying it on the store or take your chances. The dress fits true to size, is comfortable, & flattering. If only the construction was better.

The history of the Liberty Gold Double Eagle
Before Liberty Gold Double Eagles were minted, the $10 Gold Liberty Eagle was the highest denomination of U.S. coins. When the California Gold Rush began in 1848, the greatly increased domestic supply of Gold prompted Congress to create new denominations of Gold American coins. The Liberty Gold Double Eagle was one of the new American coins minted in 1850, and it is called a Double Eagle because it is twice the legal tender value of the $10 Gold Eagle. These Liberty Gold coins are also known as Liberty Coronet Double Eagles because the obverse features a profile of Lady Liberty designed by U.S. Mint Chief Engraver James B. Longacre.
Why invest in Liberty Gold Double Eagles?
Add Liberty Gold Double Eagles to your collection, and you are adding physical Gold that has been considered a valuable asset for thousands of years. From Gold coins to Gold jewelry, evidence of the value of this Precious Metal can be observed as far back as 4000 B.C. when it was used for jewelry and ceremonial objects. When you buy Gold Eagle coins, you benefit from the coins having value not only as collectible Gold coins, but also as Gold bullion containing .9675 fine Gold. The Gold content of these American Gold coins means that no matter where you go in the world, these Gold coins have an intrinsic value for selling or trading.
Collect Liberty Gold Double Eagles featuring the art of U.S. Mint Chief Engraver James B. Longacre.
The Liberty Gold Double Eagle is just one of the many coins James B. Longacre designed as U.S. Mint Chief Engraver from 1844 until 1869. The Gold Eagle coins feature his profile portrait of Lady Liberty; and, it is engraved portraits that he is best known for in his private art endeavors, as well. Before becoming Chief Engraver and designing Liberty Gold coins, Longacre's engraved illustrations of noted Americans such as President James Madison and President Andrew Jackson graced the pages of books sold throughout the United States. Browse the inventory of American coins to find other U.S. coins designed by Longacre, such as the Indian Head Cent (1859-1909) and the Shield Nickel (1866-1883).

I had never purchased an older coin from APMEX before and was uncertain what to expect...especially since it was "cleaned". The coin is in good shape, however, extremely pitted. Because I am new to collecting I would be interested in finding out the cause. Beautiful coin though...I'll be buying more.

I've always loved US coins, with these first and foremost. This particular coin was an 1882 S. Doesn't look as though it was cleaned, and is in excellent condition! I will be buying more!

Apmex is very good about special requests, so don't be shy about inquiring about a year or some other needful thingy. Often as not, they deliver better than you expect. My latest double eagle was in amazing condition, very little wear, and was in the year block I love the most - the 1870s thru 80s. And fast shipping.

Love the coins....wish I could get more.....Gold is the way to go !!!

I bought 10 and used the order form's request box for the first time. I asked for a variety of years and mints if that was reasonable from APMEX's end. I received 10 different, not the six or seven I expected.
- Attractive Design
- Excellent Service
- Collectible (lower mintage)
It is very cool to have a coin used over 100 years ago. Only slightly higher in price than a gold Eagle
- Attractive Design
- Easy to Sell
- Recognized Brand
I believe these gold coins are a great way to actually own a U.S. currency at a reasonable rate to the actual price of gold.
I ran a little test to see where I should buy old circulated gold coins. I bought three coins from three different places for about the same price. One from APMEX, one from an online auction, and one from a local a coin show. I was most worried about getting ripped off by the online auction sight but all three coins acid tested above 18kt. The online and coin show coins are in very nice condition and very beautiful. The APMEX coin I received was clean and shiney but pretty beat up. I never would of bought it if I could of seen a picture of it first. From now on I will only buy old circulated gold coins that I can see before I buy. I will continue to buy new coins coins from APMEX because I get the price I want and they arrive safely and in beautiful condition.

Collect Liberty Gold Double Eagles to collect a piece of history resulting from the Gold Rush.
Buy Liberty Gold Double Eagles minted from 1850 until 1907, if you want a piece of tangible history that was a direct result of the California Gold Rush. Before the minting of Liberty Gold coins, about 300,000 people rushed to California in search of Gold after hearing of its discovery at Sutter's Mill in Coloma, California, in 1848. The bill to fabricate Gold Double Eagle coins was introduced by the United States Congress in February 1849 to make use of this influx of Gold, and the first coins hit the market in 1850. When you order Gold Eagle coins, you can hold a piece of history in your hands.

Signs of Aging Could be Warded Off with New Compound
Tiffany Kaiser
December 26, 2013 1:38 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Communication between the cell's nucleus and mitochondria is key
A new study shows that communication between a cell's nucleus and mitochondria is essential in warding off the negatives that
come with aging
, such as disease.
According to
Science Daily
, helping to rebuild the broken communication between the nucleus and mitochondria has proven to reverse signs of aging in mammals (more specifically, mice). The study was led by Harvard Medical School Professor of Genetics David Sinclair and Ana Gomes, a postdoctoral scientist in the Sinclair lab.
The initial problem is that mitochondria (a cell's powerhouse that creates chemical energy) become increasingly dysfunctional over time leading to diseases like diabetes. The self-contained mitochondria, which have their own small genomes, have been linked to aging before.
Up until now, it was believed that aging can't be reversed because mutations in mitochondrial DNA cause age-related illnesses like Alzheimer's disease, and mutations can't be undone.
But the latest study focused on an important group of genes genes called sirtuins, and one of these genes -- SIRT1 -- is activated by a compound called resveratrol. When SIRT1 was removed, the mice certainly showed signs of aging, but the team was surprised to find that most mitochondrial proteins coming from the cell's nucleus remained at normal levels. Only those from the mitochondrial genome had decreased.
They saw that communication between the two was broken and accelerating age-related illnesses as a result. To correct it, they focused on a chemical called NAD, which keeps SIRT1 in check. SIRT1s job is to keep a molecule called HIF-1 away, which messes with communication between the nucleus and mitochondria. So if SIRT1 doesn't have enough NAD, it loses its ability to keep HIF-1 away and it destroys communication.
Without this communication, cell is unable to create energy and signs of aging occur.
The research team then used an endogenous compound that cells transform into NAD on two-year-old mice. After just one week, their tissue looked like that of six-month-old mice.
This repaired the broken communication and restored communication and mitochondrial function. The study states that giving this compound early enough (before excessive mutation accumulation) some aging could be reversed. It could also open up some doors and answer questions as to why cancer risk increases with age.
This isn't the first time Harvard researchers have worked on
age reversal techniques
. In 2010, Ronald DePinho, leader of the study and a scientist at Harvard Medical School, along with a group of Harvard researchers, discovered that an anti-aging therapy called telomere shortening has the potential to eliminate age-related issues like dementia and heart disease by rejuvenating old, worn out organs.

I love this list – I need to get down to compiling my own for this summer. I like your idea of visiting a Midwestern winery – Though California really reigns supreme in the US, I've really enjoyed discovering random wineries in NC and Virginia.
Awesome pic btw – makes me want to get in the water stat.

I highly recommend the Green Grocer in Chicago for doing a weekly veggie share. They're so nice and knowledgeable and the veggies are always delicious!
http://www.greengrocerchicago.com/ I second the vote for Tabor Hill! St. Julian is a favorite, but Fenn Valley takes the cake for me. They have amazing events in the vineyard as well!
Southwest Michigan has a wine trail you can follow, which links several wineries in the area. There are even shuttle services you can hire so you can drink and not worry about driving.I'm definitely copy-catting your lakehouse-for-a-weekend idea!

WEDDINGS: Glitter Weddingsinstead of michigan, maybe consider wisconsin - specifically the madison area.
wollersheim winery (http://www.wollersheim.com/) is 30 minutes out of town and the wine is awesome (prairie fume, their specialty, is one of my favorite whites in the summer).
and madison is fantastic - tons of great restaurants, a great farmers' market every saturday morning, lakes, good biking, beer, cheese, etc, etc. - and it's only 2 hours from chicago.Michigan wineries are great! I recommend the Old Mission wineries or the Leelanau Peninsula wineries near Traverse City. My friends and I just rented a fabulous cottage on Big Glen Lake for the weekend--check it out here: http://fisherscottages.com/glen-lake-log-home/
I'm a big fan of the blog!- Elise B.June 12, 2012 at 5:44 PM
I would definitely suggest heading to Northern Michigan to visit wineries! Old Mission Peninsula north of Traverse City is known for their great selection of local wineries and it is possible to do a wine tour! I'm from this area and must say it's the perfect place to visit in the summer. It wasn't voted the most beautiful place in America for nothing! :)

Try lunch at Tabor Hill winery followed by one of the summer fests with bands at Round Barn Winery - so much fun!
We like Lemon Creek winery also.
L. Forget Michigan! You need to head south to Bloomington, IN, and go to Oliver Winery! (OK, maybe I"m biased because I went to IU and I've been to Oliver about a million times.) But really, it's great. And Bloomington itself is beautiful too, especially in the summer when there aren't so many students.

Johnson holds on to beat Rahm in Match Play final
American Dustin Johnson became the first player to win all four World Golf Championships events when he claimed the WGC-Dell Match Play in Texas on Sunday.
AMSTERDAM Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte said he will attend next month's Winter Olympics in Sochi with King Willem-Alexander and Queen Maxima, even though relations between the two countries are severely strained.
For Russia and the Netherlands, 2013 was supposed to be the year when they celebrated 400 years of diplomatic ties with a string of high-level visits by politicians and business leaders,
and various cultural exchanges.
Instead, relations turned increasingly sour over human rights, particularly gay rights, as well as Russia's detention of Greenpeace activists, two of whom were Dutch, and impounding of their Netherlands-registered vessel.
But Rutte said on Friday the government would not boycott the Winter Games in Russia.
"The Netherlands has several concerns about the human rights situation in Russia," he told journalists at his weekly press briefing in The Hague.
"(But) we see nothing to gain with a boycott. It is better to engage in dialogue."
He also defended the decision to attend the Sochi Games saying that several other government leaders and royals would also be attending.
The Netherlands has taken a tough line on Russia's treatment of homosexual rights.
Dutch Foreign Minister Frans Timmermans has denounced Russia's law banning homosexual "propaganda" among minors, and has said the inhumane treatment or violation of the fundamental rights of Russian lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender (LGBT) people could be grounds for asylum in the Netherlands.
When Russian President Vladimir Putin visited Amsterdam in May, he was greeted by crowds of gay rights activists and banners saying: "Putin, Go Homo."
In October, senior diplomats from each country were beaten in their respective homes in Moscow and The Hague.
The Netherlands apologized after Dutch police illegally detained a Russia diplomat. In Russia, unidentified people wrote LGBT in lipstick on the mirror of a Dutch diplomat after assaulting him in his Moscow apartment.
