New Sustainable Business Directory
New Sustainable Business Directory 'one stop shop' to source more sustainable NZ products and services
The new Sustainable Business Directory is a 'one stop shop' to make it easier to find more sustainable products and services across New Zealand. Launched today by the Sustainable Business Network, the directory makes it fast and easy to search and select suppliers in your area committed to being more sustainable.
CEO of the Sustainable Business Network (SBN) Rachel Brown says that users can choose from hundreds of providers to quickly green their supply chain. "From waste consultants to wineries, IT to insurance, you can discover products and services, certifications and programme providers nationwide. It's the 'go-to' place to source smart solutions."
The Sustainable Business Directory profiles all organisations that are members of the Sustainable Business Network. Users can search for products and services by keyword, geographical region or by category.
Rachel says that the directory is a key part of SBN's plan to shift procurement onto a path where sustainability plays a more significant role. "We encourage users of the directory to ask sustainability-related questions of the organisations listed. While they are at different stages of their sustainability journey, and no business is perfect, they have all shown a commitment to sustainability by joining our network and we work with them to improve their business' sustainability.
"We've included specific fields in each directory profile so users can find out more about each business' commitment to sustainability. This includes identifying how each business contributes to a more sustainable New Zealand, as well as information about awards, certifications and participation in sustainability programmes."
Karl Armstrong, Executive General Manager at NZI (SBN's foundation sponsor), says that the Sustainable Business Directory is a fantastic initiative. "It lists almost 500 businesses and makes it easy for people and organisations to select products and services so they can become more sustainable themselves.
"NZI sees the Sustainable Business Network as a trusted advisor and collaborator to many New Zealand organisations to inspire and facilitate necessary change. We see they actually make a practical difference and I think all businesses should capitalise on that."

FAQ - Before Treatment
Frequently asked questions - Beforehand
Will I be suitable for vision correction?
If you know your prescription, then you could use our free online vision correction suitability checker, which is designed to act as a guide for you. The only way to know for sure and to find the best eye surgery treatment for you is to attend a free consultation.
We have vision correction solutions for long-sight, short-sight, astigmatism, presbyopia (the age related need for reading glasses) and those with strong prescriptions.
Why do I need a consultation?
There are many factors that need to be considered when assessing your suitability for treatment, including your prescription and the health of your eyes, which are measured in great detail during your consultation. It is also your opportunity to find out answers to any questions you might have and ensure you fully understand the benefits and risks of vision correction treatment.
During your free eye surgery consultation, you will meet with your personal advisor who will answer any questions you might have throughout the consultation. Our specialist vision correction optometrists perform several tests on your eyes, producing electronic maps which precisely show the contours and irregularities on the outer surface.
You are then advised on your suitability for vision correction, and we will recommend which treatment will give you the best result.
Is there a waiting list for consultations?
We always do our best to fit you in as soon as possible at one of our vision correction clinics at a time and date to suit you.
We aim to offer you a consultation within a week of you contacting us, however sometimes we are busier than usual.
How long after the consultation can I have treatment?
You could have your treatment from 48 hours after your eye surgery consultation. The reason for this is that we believe you need time to digest all the information you will receive at your consultation to make an informed decision about your treatment.
When can I get it done?
Once you make the decision to go ahead with treatment, we can look for a treatment date and time that will suit you.

Find your nearest Ultralase laser eye surgery clinic.
How long will I need to take off work?
Your consultation can take up to 2 hours so that we're able to accurately map and measure your eyes and make a recommendation to you about treatment based on the unique characteristics of your eyes. You can return to work after this, but you are unable to drive as we often need to use drops to dilate your pupils and this can make your vision blurry and slightly more light sensitive.
After your treatment, the time we recommend you take off depends upon your eye surgery treatment and your own recovery rate, but as a guide allow at least 24-48 hours, and it could be up to a week. This will be discussed with you at your free consultation.
Each aftercare appointment can take up to 15 minutes and depending on your treatment, there are 4-5 recommended aftercare appointments.
How soon can I be back on my PC/iPhone/iPad?
This depends on your eye surgery treatment and your own recovery rate, but allow at least 24-48 hours, and it could be up to a week. If you must use your PC, then remember to blink frequently and use the drops we provide.
Do the services (fire, police, armed forces etc.) recognise laser eye treatment?
The police will generally accept applications from people who have undergone laser eye surgery treatment after the elapse of 6-10 weeks, and provided there are no residual side-effects and other eyesight standards are met.
Laser eye surgery treatments are generally acceptable for current employees, but check with your superior beforehand.
Some fire brigades will make allowances for those with laser vision correction. In most cases, you will have to wait 6 months post-treatment before applying. Check with your local brigade. Laser eye surgery treatments are generally acceptable for current employees, but check with your superior beforehand.
Military policy states that while laser eye procedures are not generally prohibited among serving personnel or new recruits, there are rules covering its use. Please discuss your eye surgery with your superior.
I drive for a living, how long before I can get behind a wheel?
Everybody's eyes are different, though most are suitable for vision correction treatment. The length of time will be confirmed at your aftercare treatment based on the speed of your progress, although it is typically around 2 days, and 1-2 weeks for Intraocular Lenses (IOL).
Can I fly after treatment?
We would recommend not flying for 1 week after your eye surgery treatment. This is due to the dry atmosphere inside an aeroplane. Please also bear in mind that we will schedule your aftercare appointments for 1 week and 1 month after treatment and we recommend that you attend these appointments.
I am a commercial pilot. Can I have laser eye surgery?
Yes you can, but be aware that the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) does not recommend laser eye treatments for pilots if the visual standards required for certification are to be met.
However, if you intend to go ahead, then there are stipulations, which it is best to understand by direct application to them.
I have always had good vision, but now I've reached the age where I need reading glasses. Can laser eye surgery help?
Laser eye surgery itself cannot prevent or delay the onset of presbyopia, the age-related need for reading glasses that affects most of us as we reach our mid-forties. However, help is at hand - we offer a range of treatments designed to address the effects of presbyopia.
I've been refused laser eye surgery in the past owing to the strength of my prescription. Have techniques moved on?
They have, and it is possible that you may be suitable for laser eye surgery now, however if you are not, we may be able to help with an advanced treatment called IOL (Intra Ocular Lens). With our range of eye surgery treatments, Ultralase is now able to correct the vision of around 90% of people in the UK, including many people found unsuitable in the past.
I have a really strong prescription. Can you help?
It is possible that we will be able to help with IOL (Intra Ocular Lens) treatment. With our range of treatments, Ultralase laser eye clinics are now able to correct the vision of around 90% of people we see for consultation.
Is there an upper or lower age limit for laser eye surgery?
Peoples' prescriptions have usually stabilised by the age of 21 when the eye has completed its normal growth. However, vision correction may be an option from the age of 18, provided that the eyesight prescription has been stable for a minimum of 2 years. There is no upper age limit. However, please see the information about cataracts.
Can laser eye surgery cure cataracts?
People often start to develop cataracts when in their 60's and 70's, though this can vary. Laser eye surgery cannot cure this condition, however we do offer specific treatments for cataracts, which you can read more about here.
Is laser eye surgery available on the NHS or covered by private health insurance?
The Department of Health has stated that there are neither plans nor the resources to make laser eye surgery available on the NHS. It is also unlikely that those with private health insurance can reclaim their fees.
Should I bring someone with me?
We recommend that you do. Many people say that it's helpful for a friend or partner to attend with them as it may be that they have questions of their own to ask. In addition, during your consultation we may use eye drops to dilate your pupils, which can cause your vision to become blurred for a few hours afterwards and so a friend of partner can accompany you home. You will not be able to drive yourself home.
How long does an eye surgery consultation take?
Your free eye surgery consultation will last around 2 hours. This is so that we're able to accurately map and measure your eyes and make a recommendation to you about treatment based on their unique characteristics.

Massive emigration from Kyrgyzstan started in 1991 after the collapse of the Soviet Union. At the time, ethnic Russians returning to Russia accounted for most of the outflow, but, within a few years, the search for better job opportunities had prompted many ethnic Kyrgyz to head to Russia and Kazakhstan as well. Fifteen years of labor migration has drawn not only unskilled workers from the country's rural areas, but also members of the intelligentsia and qualified specialists from urban centers.
The State Committee on Migration and Employment estimates that roughly 300,000 Kyrgyz citizens now permanently work in Russia and about 80,000 in Kazakhstan, most of them illegally. Other estimates put the number of migrants as high as 700,000, or one-seventh of the country's population.
Low salaries and limited job opportunities are the main reasons for this migration trend. Most migrants are from the heavily populated regions of Jalalabat, Osh and Batken where industrial production stopped after the collapse of the Soviet Union and inadequate land exists for farming. . In some southern regions (Kadamzhai, Uzgen), up to 70 percent of the population has left in search of work abroad, leaving only children and the elderly.
Migration continued apace after the March 2005 uprising against former President Askar Akayev. Akyikat Zholu, a non-governmental organization which works with migrant rights, estimates that the outflow of Kyrgyz migrants increased by five to 10 percent after the revolution. According to the National Statistics Committee, 30,741 Kyrgyz officially left the country in 2005; roughly half were ethnic Russians, with 6,296 ethnic Kyrgyz.
These migrants also provide a critical source of income for Kyrgyz who remain at home. So long as the economy remains weak, little incentive exists for the government to try and reverse the flow, observers who work with Kyrgyz migrants say.
In 2005 labor migrants sent home $ 299 million, more than a third of the country's budget. The Committee, however, estimates that the real value of remittances could be around $ 600 million. Officials emphasize that only with these remittances is Kyrgyzstan able to maintain the exchange rate of the som, the Kyrgyz currency, against the US dollar.
The government reports that it is developing a comprehensive migration strategy to regulate the process and improve conditions for Kyrgyz migrants abroad. The Committee, formed in September 2005, now runs six offices in Russia and Kazakhstan which provide legal and other assistance to labor migrants from Kyrgyzstan. In 2005, Kyrgyz labor migrants took part in presidential elections for the first time thanks to voting centers set up in major Russian and Kazakhstani cities by the government and Kyrgyz NGOs. The department is also developing agreements with South Korea, Canada and the Czech Republic, where communities of Kyrgyz migrants are growing.

Latest question:
How do you think the new GigE standards will influence the machine vision industry?
Respond or ask your question now!
CI Lumen Industries now offers a patent-pending LED backlighting solution for a variety of display panels. CI Lumen's LED backlighting technology successfully addresses engineers' concerns for power consumption and heat relevant elevated brightness levels and may be applied to LCD panels produced by virtually any manufacturer. In addition to the advantages of LED backlighting for sunlight readability applications, the solid-state nature of LEDs also makes them more suitable to harsh environmental conditions such as extreme cold, shock and vibration. These advantages, together with increased reliability and longer lifetimes, make them particularly well suited for military and heavy industrial applications.
CI Lumen's light emitting diode backlighting solution was developed for hi-bright panels requiring brightness levels of 800 nits or more-a requirement for outdoor viewing, in particular. CI Lumen's proprietary solution is well suited for panels produced by a broad spectrum of manufacturers, ranging in size from 5" to 19" and hibrighted to 800 to 1300 nits at industry leading low power levels. For example, a typical 15" panel retrofitted with CI Lumen's LED backlighting technology at 1000 nits would consume only 24W of power, while a solution using cold cathode fluorescent lamps (CCFLs) of equivalent brightness would require 65W. CI Lumen's LED backlighting technology operating at these reduced power levels can be employed while successfully maintaining thermal levels comparable to the original specifications of original equipment manufacturer panels.
In addition to the primary advantages of power consumption and maintenance of thermal properties, LED backlighting creates a number of advantageous side effects. Because LEDs do not require an inverter, EMI emissions can be reduced. Additionally, no heater is needed as with CCFLs so LEDs can be turned on to full brightness immediately. This can be particularly beneficial in harsh environment applications, such as military systems used in extremely cold environments where immediate activation can be critical. Additionally, LEDs offer environmental advantages, such as simpler RoHS compliance. CI Lumen Industries Hauppauge, N.Y www.ci-lumen.com

The regional carrier said on Wednesday that net profit for the three months to September 30 was $3.7 million, unaudited, down 22.9 per cent on the previous corresponding period.
Unaudited passenger revenue was down 14.6 per cent on the same period last year at $47.5 million, while total revenue fell by 15.8 per cent to $56.9 million.
"Rex sees the operating environment stabilising and expects the following quarter to achieve similar results to the prior year," the company said in a statement.
Deputy chairman John Sharp told the company's annual meeting on Wednesday there had been signs of a recovery in the airline sector.
"The group is unable to provide a profit guidance in light of a highly volatile economic outlook, passenger demand, exchange rate and fuel prices," Mr Sharp said.
"We are in an uncertain economic climate. However there are now signs of a recovery. Rex is well poised for whatever lies ahead, having spent the last six years strengthening the business."
The airline posted a 5.6 per cent fall in net profit to $22.98 million in the last financial year. That result was achieved through cost controls and improved efficiency, Mr Sharp said.
Rex is free of debt and has a strong balance sheet, while its corporate and freight business Pel Air has "a small debt which will be soon paid off", he said.
The company said its board would reassess its dividend postponement in February 2010, with the payment of an interim dividend to proceed if the situation warrants.

Mount Morgan's Coronation Lamp has been the site of the old mining town's ANZAC Day celebrations since 1916.
The lamp commemorated the crowning of King Edward VII and honoured Mount Morgan troopers who fought under the Union Jack in the Boer War of southern Africa. Erected in June 1902 at the intersection of East and Morgan Streets, the lamp later became the assembly point for political and union rallies, and during WWI, recruitment campaigns. It also witnessed victory celebrations when the war ended.
The lamp is cast iron, standing 4.5 metres high. Originally a gas light, it was out of service after 1924 when gas lights were phased out, and remained unlit until its conversion to electric light in 1933. The lamp was relocated to ANZAC Park in 1947.
A further WWI memorial has been built in ANZAC Park- a tall white spire topped with a light. Two German trophy guns flank the memorial, surrounded by Gallipoli pines and gums.

The video shows the preparation behind Donald and CaCee's wedding, including fun moments in the nuptials.
Actor Donald Faison and Jessica Simpson's best friend CaCee Cobb got married back in December 2012. The couple's star-studded wedding will be featured in a summer issue of Martha Stewart Wedding. A video teaser which was created by Wade of Shark Pig has been released to give a glimpse of the backyard ceremony.
The 1-minute video shows glimpses of the groom and the bride before the ceremony. It includes moments when the tent was being set up at Zach Braff's backyard, CaCee was putting on accessories, and the beautiful bride was posing in her white dress. The sneak peak also includes scenes of Donald singing to his new wife and launching himself to a full body roll on the dance floor.
According to E! News, the December ceremony lasted for 20 minutes. The couple exchanged vows in front of 75 friends and family members. Ashley Simpson, Seth Green, Breckin Meyer, Elisa Donovan and Sarah Chalke were among the guests. Singer-songwriter Joshua Radin sang during the newlyweds' first dance.
Donald and CaCee announced in January that they were expecting their first child. "Looks like @donald_faison and I are going to have a little stormtrooper of our own!" she wrote. The couple actually learned that CaCee was pregnant just one day after she tied the knot. "It was awesome!" Donald commented. "Right when we decided we wanted to get married, we realized we wanted to have a baby. We were very lucky, though - we did it all in one weekend," the actor said.

Source Naturals Enteric Coated SAMe is known as a methyl donor. This means that it works by giving up a piece of itself (a methyl group consisting of one carbon and three hydrogen atoms) to other molecules. Methylation plays a part in many critical cellular functions. SAMe is present in every living cell in the body. However, levels of SAMe tend to decline with age. Suitable for Vegetarians Contains No Dairy or Egg Gluten Free Soy Free Wheat Free Contains no sugar No Artificial colors, flavors, or fragrances Source Naturals SAMe: Cutting-Edge Nutrition Technological advances have made possible the production of stable, bioavailable forms of a natural nutrient with broad-range potential. Source Naturals now offers you the fruits of that technology. Source Naturals SAMe A Multipurpose NutrientSAMe, or S-adenosyl L-methionine, isvformed when our bodies combine the amino acid L-methionine with ATP, the primary energy-carr ying molecule in our cells. SAMe is a multipurpose nutrient, which is present in every living cell. Because SAMe is involved in so many vital processes, it is important that our bodies produce sufficient SAMe. However, SAMe levels tend to decline with age, and also can be affected by dietary imbalances. To produce adequate amounts, we need to consume not only methionine-containing protein foods, but also foods rich in vitamins B-6, B-12 and folic acid, which are needed to ensure the synthesis of SAMe. SAMe also is a highly unstable molecule. A lot of scientific research was needed to make it available as a supplement. Source Naturals has studied the research and offers this vital nutrient in a form your body can use. Source Naturals SAMe Effective Joint Support SAMe has been used in Europe for two decades for joint suppor t. Dozens of clinical studies have demonstrated that SAMe supports joint comfort, function and mobility in the spine, hips and knees. SAMe is important in a process called transsulfuration. The breakdown of SAMe generates sulfate groups that help maintain joint car tilage. SAMe helps to form proteoglycans, which are used to re ne w the matrix of cartilage. Leaders of the Wellness RevolutionSource Naturals was created in 1982 by C.E.O Ira Goldberg to support each individual's potential to enjoy optimal health. At that time, the kind of nutritional formulations he envisioned – for the maintenance of well-being and the enhancement of life – simply didn't exist. The idea of combining many nutrients, herbs and nutraceuticals in one formulation, though common today, was then a rarity. Source Naturals pioneered the concept with Wellness Formula, now the industry's #1 immune support product. Source Naturals subsequently introduced numerous award-winning formulas, recognized for their excellence in independent surveys and nutritional analyses. In addition to Wellness, these award-winners include Life Force Multiple, Mega-Kid Multiple, Inflama-Rest, the Skin Eternal line, Higher Mind, Essential Enzymes, Male Response, and more. Source Naturals' comprehensive Bio-Aligned Formulas help bring the power of alignment to your body. When formulating, Source Naturals evaluates the underlying causes of system imbalances, and then provides targeted nutrition to interdependent body systems. Source Naturals' line of more than 600 products also includes well-researched, single entity nutrients in their highest quality and most bioavailable forms. Source Naturals nutritional supplements are at the leading edge of today's Wellness Revolution. This transformation in health consciousness also includes new perspectives in diet, lifestyle, emotional and spiritual development, and complementary health care. Source Naturals Strategy for Wellness is to provide education that empowers individuals to take responsibility for their health, rather than relying solely on outside medical authority. The result is people who are more productive and fulfilled, and a world that is stronger and healthier.

While the "media will wade into a Tea Party event with hundreds of thousands of people looking for that one brain-dead Lyndon LaRouche follower" who says something asinine that they can plaster "all over the news," they have ignored the insane rhetoric coming from featured speakers at last Saturday's "One Nation Working Together" rally, NewsBusters publisher Brent Bozell told viewers of the October 7 edition of "Hannity."
Appearing on last night's 9 p.m. Eastern program for the popular recurring "Media Mash" segment, the Media Research Center quoted the extreme rhetoric of musician Harry Belafonte, which was ignored by the mainstream media:
Let me just read to you what Harry Belafonte said in his speech.
"Perhaps the greatest threat of all is the undermining of our Constitution and the systematic attack against the inalienable rights of the citizens of this nation.... At the vanguard of this insidious attack is the Tea Party.
"This band of misguided citizens is moving perilously close to achieving villainous ends."
Now ABC was there, they covered that, they could have showed that footage. In case their cameras broke, it's all over every left-wing blog site in America, and yet they won't put it on their national news.
Bozell also addressed ABC "This Week" host Christiane Amanpour's allegation of violence-engendering Islamophobia against Gary Bauer and other social conservatives:
Sean, since 9/11, people like Christiane Amanpour have been lecturing Americans about how we shouldn't be tarring the entire Islamic nation because of the acts of the extremists who attacked us. Well, fine.Then what in the world is she doing tarring all of Christianity and attacking Gary Bauer personally because of some knucklehead in Tennessee who vandalized a mosque?! What a double standard!

In other words, I've enjoyed visiting 4 or 5 continents in the past few years, and was only attacked by monkeys once. (Actually, "ambushed by monkeys" is more accurate - something that was simultaneously terrifying and impressive. I may have won the battle that day, but those monkeys won my respect). Though 2013 has (so far) been almost entirely NYC-based.
And I do fight crime, but strictly locally. After years of private practice as a lawyer (or "law-talking guy", as it's commonly known), I was very fortunate to be able to take a position as a state prosecutor last year. And I still pinch myself every time I say/type that.
In terms of adventures, that could be anything: skydiving, SCUBA diving, eating BBQ duck neck in Sunset Park, or watching a cool documentary about any of that. I try to be open to all experiences, because you never know what's going to be amazing unless you try it (within reason, of course).
Movies: this changes all the time. Some all time favs include Airplane!, Spinal Tap, and, of course, Godfather. Recently, very pleasantly surprised by how much I loved Funny People. And Scott Pilgrim vs. the World sort of spoke to me...
Shows: the usual everyone likes -- The Wire and Breaking Bad. Veep is quite amazing, too. Still love the weird comedies, like Children's Hospital and Burning Love.
Music: Total indie rock geek. Which means I can make the best playlists ever for any occasion. You're welcome, in advance.
Food: Anything weird, spicy, ethnic, fusion-y, and/or experimental. Treason is a cold boiled potato on a white china plate.
If you love knowledge and art, and aren't afraid to talk about it.
You love to travel and are open to new experiences.
You question why people like things, but are open to the possibility that they just do because its awesome.
Bonus points if you look cute rocking out.

About MeI love analogies. I leave a trail of glitter and sequins wherever I go. Some say I am Christmas morning. I like reading cereal boxes in the morning and shampoo bottles in the shower. I'm messy and girly and absurd. I want to have underground fame, where hip people discuss me over chai. I design and sew my own fancy clothes. I don't stay mad. I love to talk, but I want to know your life story. I really like my friends. I believe in never wasting a moment, even though I do. Good music makes me smile. I eat ridiculously healthy food, but I'm addicted to gum. I'll tear up any dance floor, and if you would like to dance with me, please let me know. I used to never like myself in photographs. I think being in love is the best thing I have ever experienced. And I won't tell you how to live your life, because I'm having enough fun with mine.

• A snake coiled around one's neck: The dreamer is not paying the zakat (Muslim religious due).
• The dreamer's two jugular veins having exploded and blood oozing out of them: The dreamer will die.
• The imam (Muslim spiritual leader) dreaming that his

But will at the same time be incapable of discharging his duties as a result of his weakness. But if the sword is short (and it does not touch the ground) due to the shortness of the belt, it means he will relinquish his power due to his dislike for it. If the belt is cut it means he will lose control of his power or be absolved from his duties.

p53 is a nuclear transcription factor with a pro-apoptotic function. Since over 50% of human cancers carry loss of function mutations in
Cells are constantly exposed to a variety of cellular stresses such as DNA damage. These cellular stresses finally introduce the genomic aberrations including mutation, deletion and/or translocation into the cellular genome and thereby induce the genomic instability. Accumulation of the genomic aberrations often results in the development of cancers [
p53 is a nuclear transcription factor and transactivates numerous target genes involved in the induction of cell cycle arrest and/or apoptosis [
Extensive mutation searches demonstrated that over 50% of human cancers carry the loss of function mutations in
p53 is composed of three representative functional domains including an NH2-terminal acidic transactivation domain (TA: amino acid residues 1–45), a DNA-binding domain (DB: amino acid residues 102–292) and a COOH-terminal oligomerization domain (OD: amino acid residues 319–359) [
In addition to those representative functional domains, p53 contains several characteristic domains required for its activity. Since p53 is a transcription factor, p53 must be localized within cell nucleus. For the efficient nuclear access of p53, p53 contains three nuclear localization signals (NLSs, amino acid residues 305–322, 369–375 and 379–384), which are recognized by importin α/β complex [
Mutational inactivation is considered to be one of the most common molecular mechanisms behind the dysfunction of p53. Extensive mutation search revealed that more than half of human cancers carry loss of function mutations of p53 [
The accumulating evidence demonstrated that certain cancer-derived mutant forms of p53 transactivate various target genes such as the multiple drug resistance gene 1 (MDR1), c-myc, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), interleukin-6 (IL-6), insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), fibroblast growth factor (FGF) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) [
Since the mutation search for
Under normal conditions, p53 is maintained at a quite low level through the ubiquitin/proteasome-dependent protein degradation system. RING-finger type E3 ubiquitin protein ligase MDM2 (murine double minute 2) largely catalyzes this process [
Since p53 transactivates
Appropriate nuclear distribution of p53 is critical for the expression of the transcriptional activity mediated by p53. In addition to the mutational inactivation of p53, the abnormal cytoplasmic retention of p53 causes the loss of function of p53. In contrast to the majority of other cancers,
Since p53 exerts its biological function through its target gene products, it is quite important to identify p53-target gene products and also to elucidate the functional significance of them. In this section, we describe the functional significance of the representative p53-target gene products.
The cell cycle inhibitor p21 has been discovered by four independent research groups. El-Deiry
p53 is tightly maintained at extremely low level under normal conditions. MDM2 targets p53 for ubiquitin/proteasome-mediated degradation [
Since p53-dependent apoptosis is mediated by mitochondrial dysfunction, p53-inducible mitochondria proteins are of particular interest. We describe here BAX (Bcl2-associated X protein), p53AIP1 (p53-regulated apoptosis-inducing protein 1), NOXA (Latin for damage) and PUMA (p53 upregulated modulator of apoptosis). Selvakumaran
Upon DNA damage, p53 is induced at protein level and exerts its transcriptional as well as pro-apoptotic function in association with chemical modifications such as phosphorylation and acetylation [
In addition to NH2-terminal phosphorylation of p53, p53 is also phosphorylated within its COOH-terminal region. CKII (casein kinase II) phosphorylates p53 at Ser-392 [
p53 is also acetylated in response to DNA damage [
Non-catalytic protein-protein interaction is one of the regulatory mechanisms of p53 function. In this section, we describe the representative p53-binding partners which regulate p53 function.
Among 14-3-3 family members, 14-3-3σ acts as a positive regulator for p53 [
ASPP1 and ASPP2 which contain ankylin repeats, SH3 domain and Pro-rich domain, interact with p53 and specifically enhance pro-apoptotic activity of p53 through the inhibition of pro-survival Bcl2 [
We have previously identified NFBD1 (nuclear factor with BRCT domain 1)/MDC1 (mediator of DNA damage checkpoint protein 1) with an anti-apoptotic function [
It has long been believed that human
In addition to the alternative translation product of p53, Bourdon
The therapeutic efficiency of anti-cancer agents depends strongly on their ability to trigger apoptosis in target cancer cells [
As mentioned above, MDM2 binds to the NH2-terminal region of p53 and inhibits its transcriptional as well as pro-apoptotic function. MDM2 also facilitates proteasomal degradation of p53. Thus, MDM2 antagonist could activate p53 and offer a novel therapeutic approach to cancer. Vassilev
Alternatively, the re-activation of mutant p53 contributes to much more efficient treatment of cancers bearing mutant
Since over 50% of human cancers carry p53 mutations, mutational inactivation is a major molecular mechanism behind p53 dysfunction. Cancers bearing p53 mutation sometimes display a chemo-resistant phenotype. Although the intracellular balance between the expression levels of wild-type p53 and mutant p53 might be a critical determinant of cell fate in response to DNA damage, mutant p53 acts as a dominant-negative inhibitor toward wild-type p53 and exhibits a longer half-life than wild-type p53. Thus, the development of novel strategies to re-activate mutant p53 is required to provide clues to effectively treat malignant cancers bearing
Dominant-negative effect of mutant p53 on wild-type p53. Pro-apoptotic function of p53 is significantly inhibited by certain p53 mutants which induce malignant transformation through up-regulation of c-myc and TERT.
Functional interaction between p53 and RUNX3. Upon DNA damage, RUNX3 is associated with phosphorylated form of ATM (p-ATM) and recruits it to p53 to facilitate phosphorylation of p53 at Ser-15.

Terra Edibles Policies:
We do not share or sell our mailing list or e-mail addresses.
It is private and protected.
All of our seeds are untreated.
We do not sell genetically-engineered seed.
(see Safe Seed Pledge below)
Our seed is grown with organic methods - no chemicals or pesticides are used in the production. We are striving to have all of our seed certified organic.
Safe Seed Pledge: The following text was developed by the Council on Responsible Genetics who solicited the opinion of many concerned seed companies in the drafting of this pledge. Terra Edibles has signed the pledge.
"Agriculture and seeds provide the basis upon which our lives depend. We must protect this foundation as a safe and genetically stable source for future generations. For the benefit of all farmers, gardeners and consumers who want an alternative, we pledge that we do not knowingly buy or sell genetically engineered seeds or plants.
The mechanical transfer of genetic material outside of natural reproductive methods and between genera, families or kingdoms, poses great biological risks as well as economic, political and cultural threats. We feel that genetically engineered varieties have been insufficiently tested prior to public release. More research and testing is necessary to further assess the potential risks of genetically engineered seeds.
Further, we wish to support agricultural progress that leads to healthier soils, genetically diverse agricultural ecosystems and ultimately people and communities."

John Jacob Astor III[1] (June 10, 1822 – February 22, 1890) was an American financier, philanthropist and a soldier during the American Civil War. He was a prominent member of the Astor family, becoming the wealthiest family member in his generation and the founder of their English branch.[2]
Family & Early life[edit]
Astor was the eldest son of real estate businessman William Backhouse Astor, Sr. (1792–1875) and Margaret Alida Rebecca Armstrong (1800–1872), a nephew of occasional poet John Jacob Astor, Jr. (1791–1869), and a grandson of fur-trader John Jacob Astor (1763–1848), Sarah Cox Todd (1761–1842), Senator John Armstrong, Jr. (1758–1843) and Alida Livingston (1761–1822) of the Livingston family. His younger brother, businessman William Backhouse Astor, Jr. (1829–1892), became the patriarch of the male line of American Astors.
John Astor studied at Columbia University and the University of Göttingen, following which he went to Harvard Law School. He practiced law for a year, to qualify for assisting in the management of his family's immense estate, one half of which later descended to him.[3] It was based on his paternal grandfather's achieving a monopoly in the lucrative fur trade in the early nineteenth century.
Military service[edit]
Astor was elected lieutenant colonel of the 12th Regiment of the New York Militia. He resigned from the office in 1853. [4]
During the American Civil War, Astor served as a volunteer aide-de-camp to Major General George B. McClellan (then commanding general of the U.S. Army) from November 30, 1861 to July 11, 1862. In recognition of his services during the Peninsular Campaign, Astor was brevetted as a brigadier general of Volunteers in March 1865.
In 1880 he became a companion of the New York Commandery of the Military Order of the Loyal Legion of the United States—a military society of officers who had served in the Union armed forces. He was assigned insignia number 1909.
He regarded his Civil War service as the best of his life and attended the reunions of the Loyal Legion with zeal.[5]
Business interests[edit]
In business, Astor dabbled in railroad investment, but was outsmarted by Commodore Cornelius Vanderbilt (1794–1877) and forced to yield control of the original New York Central Railroad line (from Albany to Buffalo) to him. His principal business interest was the vast Astor Estate real estate holdings in New York City, which he managed profitably and parsimoniously.
Marriage and family[edit]
Astor was married on December 9, 1846 at Trinity Church in New York City to Charlotte Augusta Gibbes (February 27, 1825 – December 12, 1887) of South Carolina, daughter of Thomas Stanyarne Gibbes, Jr. and Susan Annette Vanden Heuvel.[6] They had one son, William Waldorf Astor, 1st Viscount Astor (March 31, 1848—October 18, 1919).
In 1859 he built a home at 350 Fifth Avenue, today the street address of the Empire State Building. Later, he had an imposing vacation home, Beaulieu, built in Newport, Rhode Island, and he had a country estate, Nuits, at Ardsley-on-Hudson in Irvington, New York.
John Jacob Astor III donated objects and funds to the Metropolitan Museum of Art (in 1887 he presented it with his wife's collection of valuable laces and left a bequest of $50,000). He and his brother presented Trinity Church with a memorial to their father: a sculptured reredos and altar costing $80,000. He left a bequest of $450,000 to the Astor Library,[7] bringing the family benefactions to the institution to a total of about $1,500,000. He also gave generously to the New York Cancer Hospital ($100,000 bequest), the Woman's Hospital, St. Luke's Hospital ($100,000 bequest) and the Children's Aid Society.
He took an active interest in the Astor Library beyond funding. He was treasurer of its board of trustees, and in 1879 deeded to it the three lots on which the northern wing of the present building was later constructed by him. He presented it with his collection of early books and rare manuscripts.
His deeply religious wife Charlotte supported the newly formed Children's Aid Society and sat on the board of the Women's Hospital of New York, an institution that to her dismay refused to accept cancer patients. She persuaded her husband to donate the money ($225,000) to erect the New York Cancer Hospital's first wing, the "Astor Pavilion." For twenty years, she supported a German industrial school. From 1872 until her death, she was a manager of the Woman's Hospital, besides taking an active part in the Niobrara League to aid the Indians and in many other charities. She bequeathed $150,000 to charitable organizations.[3]
John Jacob III increasingly visited London in his later years. His son moved there permanently with his family in 1891 and became a citizen in 1899 where he was later made a peer.[8] John Jacob Astor III died on February 22, 1890 and was interred in the Trinity Church Cemetery in Manhattan.[9]

Ask an Eye Doctor and Get an Answer ASAP
Hi. I'm Dr. Rick and I have two decades of ophthalmology experience. I'm online and happy to answer your question today.
You may not get back to perfect 20/20 vision after the surgery (although I've had it happen in a number of cases) but your vision should be much better, not only on what you can see on the eye chart but by having much less (hopefully no) distortion.
I would suggest you not see an optometrist at all and continue to follow up with your retina doctor or a general ophthalmologist.....
It will take a variable amount of time to heal after the surgery. What vision you have six months post op is probably the best you can expect to get....
This has nothing to do with migraines...no worries there.
You do not need pre or post op oral antibiotics. Infection etc is a risk in every surgery, even if it is only to remove a hang nail :), that is why your surgeon told you about it.
Molly, only you and your retina surgeon can decide if the surgery, and the risks thereof, are worse than leaving things alone. From what we have discussed I think surgery is the way to go.
I wish you the very best. Let me know how things turn out.
I hope this information was helpful for you. But I do work for tips so I want to make sure you are happy with me before rating me. If you have another question on this or a related issue feel free to fire away. You may also receive an email survey after our chat, if you don't feel that I have earned a "10" rating in all areas, please let me know what I can do to meet your expectations. Thanks in advance, Dr. Rick MD FACS
I had the surgery for macular pucker last week. Still have blurred visionin that eye and a large bubble or air pocket. Dr. was a littledisappointed that the vision was so poor. He said there was blood inthe eye from the surgery and that in time the eye would absorb it and thegas bubble. I go back in 2 weeks. Thanks for your help.
I had the macular surgery last week. Vision is still very blurry. Thedoctor said it was loose blood vessels that would soon be absorbed into theeye. I could see better before the surgery but he said to give it a coupleof weeks. I have another appointment. The retina is in tact and the gasbubble is gone. Vision is still too blurry to drive. Very discouraging.Molly

Tethyr recently emerged from a decades-long civil war (1347-1369 DR) with two new monarchs. The strong rule of Queen-Monarch Zaranda Star Rhindaun and King Haedrak III (who formerly served the great Elminster of Shadowdale as a scribe under the name of "Lhaeo") began to restore hope to a cynical, suspicious, war-torn land.
Tethyr was a growing nation, establishing ties with hesitant neighbors, and driving monsters from its lands. There continued to be much suspicion in the land, especially towards organizations that admitted to meddle in the affairs of others, such as the benevolent Harpers or sinister Zhentarim.[citation needed]
Tethyr's large forests were home to a population of wood elves, who were ever wary of human rulers wishing to tame their forest with torch and axe.
Tethyr was bordered to the north by Amn and to the south by Calimshan, while the pirates of the Nelanther Isles harried the kingdom's maritime commerce, such as trade vessels bound for far-off Maztica.
As of 1479 DR, the rulers of Tethyr were Queen Cyriana and King Errilam. They had a daughter, the Princess Zandra, who was also one of the Court Vizeras, along with Mynda.
As of 1489 DR, the ruler of Tethyr was Queen Anais Rhindaun, daughter of Queen Cyriana and King Errilam, who survived her eldest sister Zandra.[2]
Life and SocietyEdit
Despite having an arid environment outside the large Forest of Tethir, the majority of the nation lived along the well established trade routes. With two major nations bordering north and south, Amn and Calimshan respectively, the Sea of Swords and its Nelanther pirates as its western border and finally the Omlarandin Mountains to the east.[citation needed]
Known for their tradesmen, exceptional quality was their focus rather than cruelly cutting out competition as it might be in other cities. Many works of wood, furniture, chests, and coffers were all made by or in copy of the Tethyrian fashion. Prosperous families dedicated themselves to one particular trade or good.[citation needed]
Land was the measure of status amongst the Tethyrian's. Nobles either earned or inherited their land. Commoners were ruled by a Count, who in turn appointed local sheriffs to do the various tasks he appointed from collecting taxes, mustering a militia, and administering laws. They in turn were overseen by Dukes who reported to the Queen herself. The Queen had a council of advisors known as the Royal Privy Council made up of her heir or crown regent, a selection of eight dukes of the lands, and five important and key individuals of varying Religious and racial background: The Archdruid of Mosstone, the Treespeaker of the Wealdath, the Hills' Voice (Halfling), the Shield Brother of the Starspire, and the Samnilith (Gnome). The Queen was commander of the standing army.[citation needed]
In addition to the standing army, there were several knightly orders present in Tethyr. Sponsors included Ilmater, Torm, Tyr and Helm. Of significant note were the Order of the Silver Chalice and the Champions Vigilant, sponsored by Helm.[citation needed]
Travelers coming into or through Tethyr were warned that five is an unlucky number.
Major Geographical FeaturesEdit
Spires of MirEdit
The Spires of Mir covered the southern highlands of Tethyr.
Forest of TethyrEdit
Was also known as "The Wealdath." The forest of Tethir was located along the Trade Way, south of the Small Teeth Mountains. In addition to the two elven tribes, Suldusk and Elmanesse, there were a variety of fey creatures that defended these woods as their home. A host of other dangers resided in these woods including several dragons, wyverns, and even lycanthropes. Rumor that portals to the world of the Lythari, shapechanging elves, were located somewhere in the forest as well but only the Lythari knew their location or how to activate them.[citation needed]
Omlarandin MountainsEdit
Barely considered mountains, this foothill area was known for the very rare and prized omlar gems. These gems were exceptionally useful in the arcane arts and often fetched large sums from those that could afford to purchase such rarities.[citation needed]
Snowflake MountainsEdit
The Snowflake Mountains were a mountain range in the far east of Tethyr. Not directly in the sphere of influence of any nation, the Snowflake Mountains were located between Tethyr, Amn, the Shining Plains, and the Lake of Steam. The Snowflake Mountains were best known for the Edificant Library, a place of worship of Deneir and Oghma, and the childhood home of Cadderly Bonaduce. It was magically rebuilt and was called Spirit Soaring.[citation needed]
Starspire MountainsEdit
Despite being low mountains, treacherous peaks abound through the range. There was said to be a surviving clan of dwarves that managed over the years to fend off the various creatures making their home on the surface of the mountains. In its eastern stretch lay Mount Thargill that was a inactive volcano.[citation needed]
Major CitiesEdit
Darromar was the new capital of Tethyr. This was truly the hub of the nation: it was growing with the influx of mercenaries and monster hunters. Students of the arcane also had a home as there was a small academy for those not desiring to travel south to Calimshan.[citation needed]
Despite its smaller size, this town was of great importance because of its location on the Trade Way. Of additional note was its proximity with the forest which made dealing with its inhabitants especially delicate. A powerful grove of druids set its aim on working with and instructing the townsfolk on the proper care of the forest.[citation needed]
Taking much from their neighbors to the south, a strong resemblance to Calimshan was obvious. This was the main port for agricultural goods to and from the inlands. Due to Calimshan being so near, arcane arts were seldom practiced and never in abundance. Of special note, this was the home of the Jaguar Guard. These noble warriors were exported from their home in Maztica far to the west.[citation needed]
Saradush was a metropolis within the land of Tethyr. Once a great bureaucratic center for the city's royal dynasty, Saradush fell into a period of decline following the Spellplague. Despite this, Saradush became an important waystation for trade involving the area surrounding Lake of Steam. Given its proximity to several kinds of terrain, along with increased prominence as trade traffic with Riatavin increased, Saradush also became a haven for travelers and adventurers alike.[citation needed]
This critical city allowed for the trade through the Sea of Fallen Stars. The city was largely overlooked by Amn's growing trade with Maztica and its Council of Six resulted in the secession from Amn to Tethyr occurring in 1370 DR. Rumors of largely hidden Wizards and Sorcerors sprang forth in support of the secession promising to aide against any actions from Amn.[citation needed]
This coastal city was a naval outpost, protecting against the Nelanther pirates. In addition, due to is coastal location, it was also home to a large seafaring and fishing community. It was rumored that ghosts haunted the city but the people appeared to be largely ignorant or uncaring concerning the hauntings.[citation needed]
The former Capital of Tethyr, cut into two by the Sulduskoon River, was still on many levels the glory of surrounding cultures. The city was ruled by a council consisting of Lords. Similarly to Myratma, due to its relative distance to Calimshan, any practicing the arcane arts were lured south with the promise of salary and an easy life.[citation needed]

Deliberate Deception
Peter Robbins and Larry Warren
Liverpool, Exopolitics Conference, 2009
"Honor in a military context is not just something that consists of always and only following the official orders you are given in the military, whether you wear the uniform of your country or a business suit….
Larry Warren, Capel Green 1998
...Honor is also having the courage and clear sense of right and wrong to know that you are willing to put your life, safety, peace of mind and future squarely on the line to fight against a wrong of such significant consequence that you know no amount of going by the book will ever solve it or make it go away. And in this respect Larry Warren is one of the most honorable men I ever hope to meet." – Peter Robbins, from Deliberate Deception
