Notes: Snail is a transcriptional repressor of E-cadherin that enhances both cell attachment and cell detachment in Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK) and A4231 cells. To investigate this effect, the authors used Western blot analysis and RT-PCR to monitor protein and mRNA levels of the major adhesive proteins expressed in epithelial cells: laminin, heparin sulfate proteoglycan and collagens. For RT-PCR, total RNA was isolated from transiently transfected snail-expressing MDCK and A431 cells and untransfected cells, then reverse transcribed. The resulting cDNA was amplified by PCR using GoTaq® DNA Polymerase; glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase was amplified as an internal control. The ability of Snail to regulate the integrin αV promoter was also examined by cloning the promoter and several promoter deletions upstream of a firefly luciferase reporter gene in the pGL3-Basic Vector. Each of these constructs (1µg) and 20ng of pRL-CMV Vector were transfected into MDCK and MDCK/snail cells, and luminescence was measured using the Dual Luciferase Assay System. (3882)

Notes: The authors wanted to purify and characterize the capsular polysaccharide (CP) produced by Staphylococcus haemolyticus strain JCSC1435. S. haemolyticus strains grown in TSB cultures were harvested, lysed with lysozyme and lysostaphin and genomic DNA isolated using the Wizard® Genomic DNA Purification Kit. The DNA was then used in CP gene PCR. Total RNA was isolated from exponential, postexponential, and stationary phases of S. haemolyticus growth and used in RT-PCR using the Access RT-PCR System.

Notes: Natural rubber-degrading bacteria fall into two categories: those forming clearing zones on latex overlay plates and those that do not. To investigate this degradation process, the authors amplified latex-clearing protein (lcp) homologs from non-clearing-zone-forming bacteria using degenerate PCR primers based on lcp sequences from clearing-zone forming species. The 3´ region of the lcp gene in G. westfalica was amplified by nested PCR using biotinylated primers, and the amplified products were cloned in the pGEM®-T Easy Vector and sequenced using universal M13 forward and reverse primers.

Notes: Increased expression of midkine (MK), a growth factor normally involved in neural development, is associated with several human malignancies. The authors used quantitative RT-PCR to examine mRNA levels for MK and MK receptors in various soft-tissue sarcoma (STS) cell lines. Reverse transcription was performed using 1µg of total RNA, and 2µl of cDNA was used in qPCR using the PCR Master Mix, primers specific to MK and either glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate or β-actin primers for normalization, and EvaGreen® dye. To examine the protumorigenic effects of MK, the authors incubated HT1080 and SW684 STS cell lines, which express low levels of MK, with human recombinant MK and measured cell proliferation using the CellTiter 96® AQueous Non-Radioactive Cell Proliferation Assay. In addition, the authors examined cell proliferation in MK-stably transfected HT1080 cells. The plasmid used for stable transfections was created by reverse transcribing the MK-coding region using the ImProm-II™ Reverse Transcription System, then cloning the resulting cDNA into an expression vector.

Notes: The authors developed an in vitro selection system that is based on ribosome display and favors identification of 5´-untranslated regions (UTRs) with high translation efficiencies. A 5´-UTR random library was created in which the 5´-UTRs were upstream of a polyhistidine-tag/Renilla luciferase-coding region. In vitro transcripts from this library were translated in vitro using the Flexi® Rabbit Reticulocyte Lysate System. The authors preferentially selected mRNAs with high translational efficiencies by shortening the translation time and capturing ternary complexes of mRNA, ribosome and nascent proteins. These complexes were captured using MagneHis™ Ni Particles. RNA was extracted from these complexes and used as a template in RT-PCR for the next round of selection. Before and after each round of selection, 9µl of RNA was translated in vitro, and 20µl of translated product was removed every 5 minutes to measure Renilla luciferase activity and monitor translation efficiency. Renilla luciferase was measured using the Renilla Luciferase Assay System. After two rounds of selection, RT-PCR products were cloned into a pUC18 vector, the sequences of the resulting plasmids were confirmed, and 0.5µg of plasmid was translated in vitro using the TNT® T7 Coupled Rabbit Reticulocyte Lysate System to further evaluate translation efficiency.

Notes: To examine the role of the membrane form of macrophage colony–stimulating factor(mM-CSF) in the hematopoietic system, RT-PCR was used amplify the cDNA of human mM-CSF from J6-1 cells, a human leukemia cell line. The PCR product was digested and cloned into the pTargeT™ Mammalian Expression Vector. After sequencing to verify the sequence, the construct and empty pTargeT™ Mammalian Expression Vector were purified and used to transfect Namalwa and Ramos cells, human Burkitt's lymphoma cell lines, in 24-well plates. The transfected cells were then selected for stable expression of the transfected vector using 1.4 mg/ml G418. Expression of mM-CSF and neomycin (in the empty vector) was confirmed using RT-PCR. These cells were injected into mice and the oncogenicity of the cells determined using antibody staining of tissues. (3989)

Notes: Trivalent arsenic (As3+) induces expression of growth arrest- and DNA damage-induced gene 45α (GADD45α), which interacts with intracellular signaling molecules involved in cell cycle regulation, apoptosis and immune response. To characterize GADD45α mRNA expression patterns, total RNA was isolated from untreated (growing) and As3+-treated (arrested) BEAS-2B cells, and GADD45α mRNA was amplified using the AccessQuick™ RT-PCR System. GADD45α mRNA levels were undetectable in growing cells but increased in a time-dependent manner in arrested cells. Reverse transcription was carried out at 45°C for 50 minutes, followed by 35 cycles of PCR. (3766)

Notes: The authors characterized a novel caspase 8-like activity that cleaves Bid and activates the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway. This activity was purified from rat liver lysosomal extracts and later identified as chymotrypsin B (CtrB). CtrB was previously thought to be expressed only in the pancreas, but the authors were able to detect crtB RNA in total RNA from primary rat hepatocytes and a rat hepatoma cell line (RH-35) using RT-PCR and the Access RT-PCR System. To confirm the intralysosomal localization of Crt B, the authors transfected RH-35 cells with an expression vector encoding CrtB tagged with green fluorescent protein. Prior to transfection, synthesis of functional protein from the expression vector was confirmed by in vitro transcription and translation using the TNT® Coupled Transcription Translation System and [35S] methionine.

Sal, M.S., Li, C., Motalab, M.A., Shibata, S., Aizawa, S. and Charon, N.W.
Notes: The authors investigated gene transcription within periplasmic flagella of Borrelia burgdorferi, which are composed of a basal body, hook and filament, to determine if hook formation influences flagellin gene expression. They used insertion mutagenesis to construct strains with mutated versions of the hook structural gene flgE that were disrupted by a kanamycin-resistance cassette. The flgE gene and antibiotic-resistance cassette were amplified by PCR and cloned into the pGEM®-T Vector. To assess the effect of flgE disruption on the transcription of filament proteins FlaA and FlaB, quantitative RT-PCR was performed; enolase was used as an internal control. Negative controls without the reverse transcriptase were included for each sample. (3885)

Notes: These authors investigated the amo operon of the marine ammonia oxidizer Nitrosococcus oceani. The bacteria were grown at 30°C for 3 weeks in 200-400ml batch cultures in artificial seawater in the dark without shaking. Genomic DNA was isolated from cells in stationary phase using the Wizard® Genomic DNA Purification Kit. The isolated DNA was then used for PCR analysis. (3740)
Nguyen, A.V., Thomas-Hall, S.R., Malnoë, A., Timmins, M., Mussgnug, J.H., Rupprecht, J., Kruse, O., Hankamer, B. and Schenk, P.M.
Notes: The authors analyzed the transcriptional activity of wild-type Chlamydomonas reinhardtii cultures sampled at different time points during the aerobic and anaerobic phase of the photobiological hydrogen production process under sulfur-depleted conditions. C. reinhardtii were grown in photobioreactors, carefully extracted, centrifuged and flash-frozen in liquid nitrogen. RNA was purified using the SV Total RNA Isolation System following the plant centrifugation protocol without sample grinding. The eluted RNA was quantitated and integrity checked by gel electrophoresis and qRT-PCR. Total RNA was used to synthesize labeled cDNA using the ChipShot™ Indirect Labeling and Clean-Up System. The labeled cDNA was used for probing microarrays. (4022)

Notes: To examine the causes of Factor V (FV) deficiency, the authors examined transcript splicing and its mutated variations. Three regions of human FV (F5) were amplified from a healthy individual and the PCR products cloned into the pTargeT™ Mammalian Expression Vector. Three identified mutations from people with FV deficiency were introduced by site-directed mutatgenesis. All constructs were sequenced before transfection into HeLa cells. After 48 hours, the total RNA was purified and the splicing pattern of the wild type and mutant constructs were analyzed by RT-PCR. The mutant constructs were also transfected into HepG2 cells and tested for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) with or without NMD inhibitors (puromycin, cycloheximide, and wortmannin) using RT-PCR. (3992)
Gerlach, R.G., Hölzer, S.U., Jäckel, D., and Hensel, M.
Notes: These authors describe use of a red recombinase mediated method for generation of reporter constructs in Salmonella enterica setrovar typhimurium. Among the reporter constructs created was a HaloTag® reporter using the HaloTag® coding region from the pHT2 promoter. (3924)
Liu, Q., Fu, H., Sun, F., Zhang, H., Tie, Y., Zhu, J., Xing, R., Sun, Z. and Zheng, X.
Notes: To identify microRNA targets, the authors created a Drosha-knockdown cell line and confirmed depletion of Drosha and three randomly selected miRNAs in these cells by quantitative RT-PCR, using β-actin as a control. The reverse transcription step was performed using the ImProm-II™ Reverse Transcription System. The authors then performed microarray analysis to monitor expression of transcripts to determine which were upregulated as a result of Drosha depletion; cRNA used in these microarray experiments was synthesized using the T7 RiboMAX™ Express Large Scale RNA Production System. Cyclin D1 was identified as a potential miRNA target. To screen miRNAs that regulate cyclin D1, the authors cloned the cyclin D1 3´ untranslated region downstream of the firefly luciferase gene of the pGL3-Control Vector and measured luciferase levels in transfected cells using the Dual Luciferase Reporter Assay System. Renilla luciferase in the pRL-TK Vector was used as a normalization control. (3894)

Im a big fan of Lambrusco as it is a nice light drink.This one is on par with the same version Marks and Spencers offer but at a slightly cheaper price.Ideal with a meal as it is not as heavy as drinking a bottle of wine or cava.
I have never been much of a wine lover, finding that after only a couple of glasses I feel extremely drunk, also the fact that I only ever get a really bad hangover after drinking wine puts me off somewhat!
I have however always been a fan of Lambrusco, it was one of the things my mum and dad would let us have a glass of at Christmas, well that and peppermint cordial, I was convinced for years that it was highly alcoholic, actually getting "tipsy" on it one year at my grandma's house!
So a few months ago, after having a particularly heavy weekend on my beloved Tia - Maria, I decided I needed a change, not only was I getting a little bit bored of my afore mentioned favourite and also because it gets bloody expensive drinking a liqueur as my drink of choice constantly, it's nearly £16 a bottle, so on my daily jaunt to Asda, I decided to keep my eyes open for a new drink to tide me over on one of mine and my husbands "sessions!".
My sister is always raving about cherry lambrini, I don't actually like lambrini, as it taste like cider to me, but I did like the idea of cherries.
I spotted this wine in the rose section, and it had the added bonus of boasting the fact the wine tastes like strawberries, ok now I am interested!
I purchased the bottle and looked forward to trying it.
The bottle itself is plain with clear glass, the label at the front is pink in colour with name "Lambrusco Emilia rosato" written across it, apparently the Emilia part is the region the wine was made in France, yeah like I'd know that!
The wine is obviously visible through the bottle and is darker in colour than bog standard rose wines, the colour of this being more like a bottle of red, I'm not being stupid though, it definitely is not red, as there is a red version in this brand which when compared together is very visibly darker in colour!
When opened, ie the metal twist cap is unscrewed off, the wine fizzes up, the fizz being a beautiful pink colour, you pour the wine into a large wine glass, my glasses are so large that you only get three glasses out of a bottle!
The smell is slightly fruity, but not necessarily strawberry scented.
The taste is superb, you take the first .... Ok I want to say sip but that's just not the case is it, ok the first mouthful and the taste hits your tongue and almost takes your breath.
The first taste almost cleanses your palate of whatever you had in your mouth previously, (please no rude comments, that normally comes after I,ve drunk the bottle...lol!), the taste is sharp and sweet at the same time, with strawberry taste not being apparent until the second taste.
On the second gulp the fruity nature of the wine shines through, and in fairness the wine becomes as easy as pop to drink, not that that is a bad thing, there's nothing worse in my opinion than a wine that strips the skin off your tongue, not enjoyable at all!
As I mentioned earlier the wine is not very strong and as the bottle states is only 4% per bottle, making this only 3 units of alcohol for the entire bottle.
This makes the perfect drink to have at the many barbeques happening at the moment, you could have a couple or three glasses and still be the designated driver, I have to be honest I don't trust myself driving after a single drink so I don't actually advocate doing this, I,m just giving you the option!
The wine was purchased from Asda for the sum of £1.82, not bad compared to what I normally spend weekly on booze... ok I sound like a lush now don't I!
As the product is supplied exclusively for Asda stores ltd, Asda's nominated master of wine Phillipa Carr has put her two penneth on the back of the bottle, with her suggestions for meals to eat with it also featuring on the back, she suggests -
"Sweet and flowery and full of strawberry flavours. Refreshing with salmon salad or strawberries and cream".
This product is also suitable for vegetarians and states the bottle is glass and therefore recyclable.
Asda also promotes responsible drinking for more information on this subject visit -

- Stylist:
- Carolina
Dec 10, 2009 - I've been managing my 3a/3b curls myself using mainly barbers and such who don't give a flip about curl care. After going in a new direction for the last year, I decided to treat myself and schedule a gig with a professional. I called Mesusalon. I didn't ask for a particular sylist, but explained that I was a curly and needed someone with experience to style my mop. I ended up with Carolina. I explained to her what problems I was having, where I was going, and asked a ton of questions about curl care and styling. She flashed the "Curly Girl" (Massey & Chiel), and said it was their bible around the shop. She was perky and fun, and we had very pleasant small talk. She took her time to shape my do, explaining what she was doing the whole time. I found her very down to earth and energetic, and the overall vibe of the salon was also good. When I asked about products, she answered my questions, but didn't push, which I appreciated. I came out with lots of new ideas and info to boot! A big ol' SNAP to Carolina & Medusalon!

Intercultural communication blockages
Challenges to intercultual communication faced by officials who work with migrants in situations marked by security concerns, as well as due to bureaucratic and infrastructural limitations were discussed at a recent seminar held in Malta.
The seminar was held by the University's Faculty of Education and coordinated by Carmel Borg, local coordinator for the Bridge-It (Be Relevant to Intercultural Diversity Generation in Europe – Integration Team) project.
Bridge-It is a Grundtvig project that aims to deliver blended educational experiences that help 'adults-in-mobility' and 'adults-in-contact-with-mobility' to critically reflect on intercultural communication within institutional-bureaucratic contexts.
At the seminar, sessions were dedicated to reflect on ways to minimise intercultural misunderstandings that arise when migrants come to Malta fromsub-Saharan Africa.
Lt Col Brian Gatt, Major Jeffrey Curmi and Inspector Mario Haber discussed the communication challenges faced by local officials who work in situations marked by security concerns, while Dr Katrine Camilleri provided insights into the structural and infrastructural limitations imposed by gaps in bureaucratic provisions.
The facilitators of the reflection process were Maria Pisani, an activist and researcher in the area of migration and education, and Ahmed Bugri, a lawyer, originally from Ghana, who is the director of the Marsa Open Centre for migrants.
In their reaction to the various stories of migrants who camein contact with Maltese bureaucratic institutions, participants identified frames-of-mind that marginalise migrants and block intercultural communication.

Don't Stop Stuffing Your 401(k) Yet
President Bush's plan to repeal the individual tax on dividends has sent investors and financial planners scrambling for their calculators. One key question on everyone's mind: If the plan becomes law, should investors bother to keep putting money into 401(k)s, individual retirement accounts, and other tax-advantaged savings plans?
The answer--for most people--is yes, according to mutual-fund giant T. Rowe Price Group Inc. But once they have maxed out their 401(k)s, some individuals may be better off putting their hard-earned dollars into taxable accounts rather than into more esoteric aftertax investments, such as variable annuities.
Price concluded that most workers should continue to put pretax dollars into IRAs and 401(k)s. Whether you are investing in growth funds, which throw off few dividends, or income funds, which generate almost one-third of their total return through corporate payouts, you still would be in better shape sticking with those tax-advantaged accounts.
The reason: You'll be able to make a greater initial investment because your dollars are contributed before taxes. Here's how the numbers work, assuming you earn an average of 8% a year. Put $10,000 into a 401(k) equity-income fund, and after 20 years, you'll have $32,324. That's before any company match. But if you don't make a pretax contribution with the dough, you'll first have to pay federal and state income taxes on the $10,000. That will leave you with only about $6,900 to invest. After 20 years, your nest egg will be just over $26,000.
However, the Bush plan may require new thinking about investing with aftertax dollars. If the proposal becomes law, you may be far smarter to throw extra cash into a taxable account rather than into a sheltered investment such as a variable annuity or a nondeductible IRA, where the benefit of tax-free dividends is lost. For example, on a $10,000 investment, Price figured the tax-deferred account would be worth just $35,389 after 20 years, assuming taxes are paid at ordinary income rates when the cash is distributed. A taxable account would be valued at $37,668, since there's no tax on the dividends.
The Price study is rough, and it ignores two key provisions of the Bush plan. Price assumes all dividends would be tax-free. But Bush would curb a company's ability to pay tax-free dividends unless it first pays corporate taxes on its earnings. This rule would make taxable accounts less attractive.
On the other hand, the Bush plan also would give investors a big capital-gains tax break for shares in companies that retain and reinvest earnings. That would boost the taxable accounts. Still, the lack of details made it impossible to figure how big a benefit that would produce.
So for now, keep doing what you've been doing. If you are participating in a 401(k), don't stop. Key details of the Bush plan will change as Congress debates the bill. But when it finally passes, take stock of what it means for your tax-advantaged accounts.
By Howard Gleckman in Washington

Does anyone know of any pillar mount that are gray in color, 2 or 3 gauge mounts would be ok.

B8342-001: Healthcare Investment and Dealmaking
W - A Term, 02:15PM to 05:30PM
Location: URI 330
Instructor: Cliff Cramer; Jonathan Korngold
Corequisite(s): B8306: Capital Markets & Investments
This course analyzes the unique characteristics and strategies of investing in the health care sector from the perspective of private equity firms seeking to build value-creating health care platforms and venture capital firms investing in early-stage health care enterprises. The course also analyzes "dealmaking" strategies in the healthcare sector – mergers & acquisitions, joint ventures, licensing, and other third-party transactions -- including valuation methodologies and deal structuring. It assesses how companies and investors can assess, value and manage the inherent risks in investing in a changing, highly regulated and politically-charged environment.
This course will address these issues through a mixture of lectures, case discussions, and prominent guest speakers from venture capital, private equity, healthcare investment banking, and corporate/ business development executives from the healthcare sector.
Specific areas to be discussed include:
Business drivers of key healthcare market segments (healthcare services (providers, payors, HCIT), biopharmaceuticals, medical devices/products). Unique challenges in managing, valuing, and investing in such healthcare segments (government regulation, product life cycle management, pricing/third-party reimbursement, intangibles/patents/IP, public scrutiny, etc.) Role, investment objectives/philosophies, financing alternatives, and value-creation and exit strategies of private equity (PE) and venture capital (VC) firms. Business development function and external growth strategies (M&A, licensing, joint ventures, co-marketing, etc.) Some understanding of, or experience in, the healthcare industry will be highly valuable.
Evaluation is 25% class participation, 25% mid-term assignment (questions or case study), and 50% final paper (questions).
Capital Markets and Investments must be taken prior to, or concurrent with, this course.

Nepalese ambassador to the USA, Dr. Shankar Prasad Sharma, attended a farewell reception hosted in his honor by the US State Department and Protocol office in Washington DC last week. In a rare special farewell remark conveyed to ambassador Sharma by Deputy Chief of Protocol, Secretary of State John Kerry appreciated Dr. Sharma's role in helping to strengthen the important partnership between Nepal and the United States. Ambassador Sharma in the farewell reception thanked the US Government for its strong support for the institutionalization of democracy and socio-economic development of the country. The reception was attended by high level diplomats, government officials, diaspora community and the officials of the Embassy of Nepal.
Ambassador Sharma also paid a farewell call on William J. Burns, Deputy Secretary of State at his office at the State Department, Washington DC on January 17, 2014.
During the meeting, matters of mutual interest and the ways to further consolidate them were discussed. The ambassador apprised Mr. Burns of the successfully concluded election of the Constituent Assembly in Nepal in November last year and ongoing consultations among the major political parties to build consensus and writing the constitution on time.
Deputy Secretary of State thanked Dr Sharma for his contribution to promote and strengthen the bilateral relations between the United States and Nepal. He also underscored major accomplishments during his tenure such as resumption of the US Peace Corps, Trade and Investment Framework Agreement, inclusion of Nepal in the Millennium Challenge Corporation threshold program and most importantly the establishment of Congressional Nepal Caucus in the House.
Deputy Secretary of State reiterated the commitment of the United States of America to assist continually in Nepal's socio-economic development and said the US would like to see Nepal a peaceful, prosperous and democratic country.
Similarly, on January 16, 2014, ambassador Sharma paid a farewell call on Ander Crenshaw (Florida), Co-Chair of the Congressional Nepal Caucus in the US House of Representatives. On the occasion, Congressmen Crenshaw handed over a registered statement in the House of Representatives at Capitol Hill honoring Ambassador Sharma for his dedicated service. While commending Ambassador Sharma's active role, Congressman Crenshaw in his statement said, "No doubt, due in part to his tireless and committed work for Nepal, the past four years have brought many positive changes to the country and its relations with the United States. Not only has the Congressional Nepal Caucus been established, which will continue to educate Members of Congress on Capitol Hill about Nepal and the benefits of a strong relationship between our two countries, but the Peace Corps has resumed in Nepal after an eight year hiatus due to a now-resolved conflict. In addition, the Millennium Challenge Corporation has declared Nepal "threshold program eligible,'' strengthening the dialogue between the two countries and preparing Nepal for a future MCC Compact. And in April of 2011, a Trade and Investment Framework Agreement was signed, which established a framework for trade and resolved outstanding disputes between our nations. Each of these triumphs strengthens our relationship and will continue to help Nepal in her path to development and democracy."
Ambassador Sharma thanked Hon. Ander Crenshaw for Co-Chairing Nepal Caucus in the House. He hoped that Hon. Crenshaw will continue to advocate and pursue for more financial assistance and support from the House to Nepal in future.
Rishi Ram Ghimire, Minister/DCM at the Nepali embassy, was also present during the meetings.
Dr. Sharma also hosted a farewell reception at his residence last week, which was attended by senior American diplomats from the State Department, White House and the Capitol Hill including Assistant Secretary of State for South and Central Asia Nisha Biswal and members of diplomatic community.
The Nepali diaspora community also hosted a farewell reception in honor of Ambassador Dr. Sharma last week.
Ambassador Sharma is also scheduled to pay a farewell call on Nisha Desai Biswal, Assistant Secretary of State for South and Central Asian Affairs earlier this week.
Ambassador Dr. Sharma is returning to Nepal this week upon completion of his four year's stint in the USA.

by Patrick Thibeault
Work details
My Journey As a Combat Medic (From Desert Storm to Operation Enduring Freedom) by Patrick Thibeault
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Patrick Thibeault has dedicated his life to serving others both as a soldier and as a nurse practitioner. There was no doubt as I read this book, that he has a deep commitment towards the health and welfare of others. Whether the patient was on the battlefield, an enemy, someone in his barracks, or back here in the states in a hospital, they received the best care possible from Thibeault.
I think this is a great book for someone who can identify with being a soldier, a medic, or someone who has been in the military. It may read a little dry for the "outsider". The author tells stories of his time both in Desert Storm and Afghanistan and shares his private thoughts and moments with the reader. This isn't the type of book that tells of the horrors of the battlefields, but at appropriate times, he does share stories of those he saved and couldn't save.
Thibeault has since retired from the military and joined the civilian life as a nurse practitioner. He shares his personal struggles with PTSD and again, it reminds me of how little the military does to prepare soldiers for the return home compared to the amount of training they receive to go to war. Whether I am reading non-fiction or fiction, this seems to be a central theme. His descriptions of uncomfortable situations that he has been in will make me much more aware of those who may be suffering from PTSD that I may come across.
If you know a young man or woman looking to enter the military and/or looking to be a medic, this book would be an excellent introduction to their career choice. Thibeault closes the book with a letter to any future medics with recommendations and advice from his 20 years in the service.
I think this book paints an accurate picture of military life both on the battlefield and in the barracks. He doesn't hold back with his opinions of how certain things were done or not done. My favorite part of the book were the photos that he included. The photos gave the book a personal touch and brought some of his stories to life.
Thibeault gives the reader an honest look inside the life of a combat medic, one that needs to be heard.

With four weekends remaining in the regular season, teams are beginning to jostle for position at the Horizon League Tournament. Four conference matches will begin the process of determining the six teams who enter postseason play in a month.
Cleveland State and Detroit kick off the weekend, with the Vikings playing a visit to the Titans on Friday at 4 p.m. ET. Both teams enter the match with identical 3-2-0 Horizon League records and sit near each other in virtually every category in the conference rankings. Cleveland State boasts the defending Horizon League Player of the Week in goalkeeper Brad Stuver, while the Titans come into the match winners of four of their last five contests.
On Saturday, three more conference matches will be contested, beginning with #9 Butler's trip to Dayton, Ohio, to meet Wright State. The unbeaten, untied Bulldogs (11-0-0, 4-0-0 Horizon) face a Raider (4-7-1, 0-3-1) squad that has struggled in conference play, but will pack Alumni Field for Saturday night's 7 p.m. ET match. The Horizon League Network will have live coverage of the match beginning at 7 p.m. ET.
Holding second place in the league, Loyola (3-6-2, 3-0-1 Horizon) hosts a Milwaukee (3-6-2, 2-3-0) squad looks to solidify their top-six league standing. Two of the Horizon League's top scorers - Eric Nock of Loyola and Andrew Weidabach of Milwaukee - will square off in a match that can be seen live on the Horizon League Network beginning at 8 p.m. ET.
In the league's remaining match, Green Bay (6-4-1, 2-2-0 Horizon) travels to the Windy City to take on a UIC (4-7-0, 1-3-0 Horizon) team that is coming off a thrilling 1-0 win over #16 Ohio State on Wednesday. In another offensive showdown, the league's top scorer, JC Banks, will meet the Flames' Derek Huffman, who is third in the Horizon League with six goals on the year.
Sunday will see three league teams in non-conference tilts, as Cleveland State travels down I-69 from Detroit to Indianapolis, where they will meet IUPUI at 1 p.m. Valpo heads to Columbus, Ohio, for a 2:30 p.m. contest with Ohio State, while Detroit wraps up the weekend when they host IPFW at 3 p.m. ET.

In a revealing interview with The Observer, the new Tory leader jettisoned his party's hardline image on immigration, saying he welcomed those fleeing genuine persecution abroad. He also demanded greater social responsibility from business and offered new support for working parents.
Cameron used his first newspaper interview since becoming leader to spell out his determination to return his party to the 'mainstream of party politics', discarding baggage that has kept the Tories out of power.
Calling on Britons to take asylum seekers 'to our hearts' where they had genuinely suffered persecution, Cameron confirmed that he would consider ditching the controversial Conservative policy of capping the number of refugees that Britain accepts.
He promised that his party would no longer be the 'mouthpiece' of big business, freeing it to champion working parents, environmentalists and other causes whose interests clash with the Tories' friends in the City. And he revealed that he will take a week's paternity leave when his third child is born, leaving William Hague in charge.
Cameron spoke as a new Ipsos/MORI poll for The Observer put the Tories a startling nine points ahead of Labour among those sure to vote - and Cameron only four points behind Gordon Brown as the best potential Prime Minister. In the interview, he also disclosed his worries about raising his children in the public gaze, and he attacked government plans for a partial ban on smoking in public places, describing it as 'the worst of all worlds'.
In a wide-ranging discussion Cameron said that Conservative clubs should admit women as equal members. He admitted that he has been foxhunting about 10 times, and thinks the current ban is 'persecuting minorities'.
Crucially, Cameron also threatened to vote against Tony Blair's controversial school reforms 'if [Blair] caves in' to rebel Labour MPs.
His tone on immigration, however, best demonstrates Cameron's courtship of liberal opinion. Praising the cultural and economic benefits of immigration, he added: 'We will have a big amount of emigration and immigration, but will also recognise that a responsible government needs to look at the level of net migration in terms of also providing good public services and having good community relations.'
Defending the language on immigration in the last manifesto - which he wrote - Cameron admitted there was a 'very deep perception problem' over Tory handling of the issue, but said the politician who got immigration most 'spectacularly wrong' was the former Home Secretary, David Blunkett.
'He was the person who talked about us being swamped: he used irresponsible language at the same time as having a chaotic immigration policy.
'I want the Conservative party to do the opposite: use moderate, reasonable, sensible language, and to have a policy that actually delivers.'
Asked if he would ditch the quota policy, widely criticised for rejecting people who have suffered genuine persecution, he said it would be included in the policy rethink that he recently launched. 'I want these policy reviews not to think "we're committed to this": I want them to think "this is the big challenge facing the country - what are the right ways of meeting [it]"?'.
Cameron said he was committed not just to giving genuine refugees asylum 'but also to taking them to our hearts, and feeding and clothing and schooling them'.
Cameron-style liberalism may upset some Labour voters: he regards hunting as an issue of personal freedom, and backs repeal of the 'shambolic' ban. However, his stance on business allows a rethink over issues from maternity leave, on which the Tories have been perceived as old-fashioned, to green taxes and the minimum wage.
'There's been a danger in the past that the Conservative party has been seen too much as just "whatever big business wants",' he said. 'I didn't go into politics to be the mouthpiece for big business.'
It was 'very difficult' balancing work and family life, he said, admitting he and his wife Samantha worry about protecting their children's privacy. 'I probably get it wrong a lot of the time: and hopefully, I get it right a lot of the time,' he said.
Cameron also boosted his female-friendly credentials by saying that Conservative clubs, such as the Carlton, that do not admit women as full members should be 'completely open' to both sexes, although he said that non-political gentlemen's clubs, such as his own, White's, should continue to be able to discriminate.
A trickier issue is the debate on whether cannabis should be reclassified. Despite his previous support for downgrading the drug, Cameron said he would allow the shadow cabinet to decide the Tory position.
'If the government is bringing forward new scientific evidence, we will look at it,' he said, adding there was still a 'longer term piece of work' to be done on the correct classification of illegal drugs.
Last night Ian McCartney, the Labour party chairman, dismissed Cameron's claims, adding that the Opposition leader 'might be repacking the Tories for Christmas, but he is the same old right-winger underneath'.

New wall-mount vanity, but huge hump in wall
Apparently the drywaller decided to bring the drywall out to meet a cleanout under the vanity, instead of leaving the wall flat and having the cleanout poke through. But now I need to mount the floating vanity on the wall. The hump is about 1/4 to 1/2 inch, close to the middle of the vanity.
I can shim it out at the top and sides, but that's a lot of space. There will be only one foot on either side of the vanity, so it's going to be hard to see unless you stick your head down there.
Fortunately the counter is separate, so I can slide that flush to the wall (the hump is virtually gone at the vanity top).
Should I shave down the hump, or just shim it?
Really need a picture.
1 Attachment(s)
A picture won't really show it, and I don't have one. But I'll draw you a diagram.
If the wall were flat, the cleanout would stick out from the drywall. But instead, the drywall (or the joint compound) is raised to meet the cleanout.
I routed out a space on the back of the vanity for the cleanout. But I'm trying to decide whether to shave down the hump around the cleanout so the vanity will sit flat against the wall without so much shimming on the top and sides.
Nothing like a good learning experience ...
As I was shaving down the hump all the way up the wall (holding my straight edge horizontal), it suddenly occurred to me that the limiting factor was the lower part of the wall, since my level showed that to stick out more than the upper part. Thus, much of my work on the upper wall was for nothing, the vanity would not even be touching it. I might have figured that out if the clean out was not there, since I was focusing on working around that instead of figuring out what was the part of the wall that stuck out most (the bottom).
Anyway, got it shaved down and primed and mounted the vanity to the wall. Still sits about 1/4 inch away from the wall at the top, but the counter top covers the gap and you can't really see it on the sides.
