1898: Martian tripods lay waste to Earth's cities. The world's armies are unable to stem the tide of destruction. When all hope appears lost, common bacteria kills the alien invaders. From the ashes, the human race uses the technology left behind by the Martians to build new, advanced weapons.
1924: Armed with their own spaceships, tripods, and jet fighters, the nations of the world are ready to take the fight to Mars. George Patton, Erwin Rommel, Charles de Gaulle, and Georgy Zhukov lead their troops in battle across the red planet to end the alien menace once and for all. But the Martians have one last, desperate plan to try, and if successful, it could mean the end for all humanity.
©2012, 2017 John J. Rust and Mark Gardner (P)2017 Article94
"Rust and Gardner's sequel to the HG Wells' novel of a Martian invasion, War of the Worlds: Retaliation, does the original story full justice, while bringing their own skills to bear as the writing pair take the battle to Mars, bringing along a bevy of historical figures from World War Two. It's an exciting rollercoaster of a ride, with sudden twists and heart-stopping drops-and one I wouldn't mind riding again." (New York Times number-one best-selling author James Rollins)
""That fool with a stupid moustache.""
This story concept is simply delicious, being based on an alternate history following a famous, but fictional, invasion: that of the Martians in Wells' War of the Worlds. As such, it not only turns history on it's head and includes famous named historical figures - Stalin Lloyd George, Charles de Gaulle, Rommel, Kaiser Wilhelm II and President Maginot, amongst others - but also allows for numerous delightful little vignettes, such as Rommel, on his way to board the spaceship as part of earth's attacking fleet, is held up by a group of men in brown shirts led by a man with a toothbrush moustache who rages on about the Martians only being puppets of Jews, the real threat to humanity. Rommel promptly has his men arrest this unknown madman, Hitler, and carries on to board hi spaceship, annoyed that the encounter made his arrival twenty minutes late.

This is a straightforward tale of retaliation against st the Mars invasion which, 26 years prior to the commencement had slaughtered millions of earth people and was only stopped by the Martians falling ill and overcome by viruses in the atmosphere to which they had no resistance. Technologically vastly superior to the eathmen at the end of the 1800s, the Martians left their war machines behind as they died, equipment that was reverse engineered, thus thrusting the Earth into space travel capability in the early 20th century and even drawing together a loose, if uneasy alliance of most of the world's nations in a determination to wipe out the home world of their attackers, Mars.
The real joy of the book, in addition to the battle scenarios, is the personalities, rivalries and intrigues of the named leaders - Baria, the soviet commander, is given an especially bad press. The narrator, Samuel Hoke III, gives fine voice to all of the nuances of conflict, both of physical fighting and the dispositions of the characters. His rich, deep reading might seem a little hesitant at first but soon proves perfect for the time setting.

A most enjoyable book. My thanks to the rights holder who gifted me my copy, via Audio book Boom. It was a great idea, exciting, humorous at times, and well executed with an immediate feeling of reality. A book I am happy to recommend.
"Four stars"
This is set decades after the original war of the worlds.
It also has real characters from history (which surprised me, since I wasn't expecting it).
I loved the characters because they all thought and acted differently. This gave them and the story a more 3D effect.
The story deals with response to the original invasion and how technology advanced from the use of the captured alien spacecraft. It also contains some politic and how some countries acted after the invasion. This I believe gives it more realism unlike some other books that I have read where the countries come together without any arguing or having there own agenda. Also what I love about this book is that no one country is the hero. It is the different countries working together to achieve their objective just like WWII.
There is swearing in this book and mild violence.

I was voluntarily provided this review copy audio book at no charge by the author, publisher, and/or narrator.
"1920s War Lords take it to Mars"
Starting in 1898 with the final throws of the Martian invasion, humanity is at a breaking point. However, the human bacteria prove deadly to the Martians and on mass, they die, leaving their advanced technology for the humans to scavenge. Skipping ahead to 1924, the world leaders have decided it's time to take the fight to Mars and a massive invasion is launched.
I'm a fan of HG Wells's works, including the original War of the Worlds. So of course I was thrilled to dive into a novel that told a story of what humans did afterwards. How does a failed Martian invasion change the course of humanity's history? Gardner and Rust give a decent answer to that question.
I think this book would have extra interest to those who have studied WWI. There's plenty of European and North American names to recognize in this novel such as Charles de Gaulle, Rommel, George Patton, and so on. You don't have to be particularly knowledgeable about any of these historical figures to enjoy their characters in this tale. I was a bit surprised that the Asian countries weren't represented at all. Also, since it was a world wide Martian invasion in 1898, I was initially hopeful to see how that great leap in tech affected many of the countries in Africa and South America. Alas, those continents are barely mentioned.
There's plenty of great tech in this tale. First, I really enjoyed that some tested and true war machines of WWI were in this book, like the Fokker airplanes. There's also some brand new vehicles made especially for the Martian invasion. However, I did notice that the physics of Mars was skimmed over when it came to actual battles.
Now, let me get out my little polished soap box. There is exactly 1 female character (Nurse Hill) in this entire book and she doesn't appear until the last hour of the story and she isn't plot relevant at all. There's a few other ladies mentioned as wives or mothers. This pains me. Here we are in this fascinating science fiction novel that's essentially about the survival of the species, and the women aren't present. Sigh…
OK, so moving on. I loved that we got a look into Martian society through the Martian characters. Their society is suffering from stagnation and the inability for their leaders to admit that there's a real threat coming from Earth. I really enjoyed watching the various Martians struggle with this.
The pacing of the story is good with strategy, reflection, and action all well intermingled. I never suffered from battle fatigue nor did I feel that the story bogged down here or there. As an aside, I liked that Hitler was receiving psychiatric help and was an exceptionally minor character in this book.
I received a free copy of this book via The Audiobook Worm.
The Narration: Samuel Hoke was a very good fit for this story. He performed several different accents as needed and was consistent with them throughout the story. Each character was distinct.
"A Hit or Miss Sci-Fi Action Novel"
I picked this book up and set it down a few times before being able to get through it. I love science fiction and don't even mind that it's a sequel -- but there was something about the way this book was written that just didn't sit well with me. That being said, I did finish it (which I don't alway do).
What this book helped me realize is that alternate history books can be awesome when some of the research is done correctly. Even if it's meant to be a crazy different timeline there are still things that make more sense now than they would back then. Retaliation had some of this and while other parts felt just right.
The action of this book was really well written. I can tell a lot of time went into crafting the perfect action scenes and making them flow from one to another. The ability to keep a book packed with this much action without making it feel overdone surprised me.
A slightly 'cinematic' narration -- War of the Worlds Retaliation both hit and missed marks throughout. I don't know if it's because it's been a long time since I've read the original War of the Worlds or what, but the intro/first few chapters felt really hard to get into for me. Sure there was action almost right away but I wasn't 100% sure why things were happening the way they were.
The narration for War of the Worlds Retaliation was done by Samuel E. Hoke III who does a really nice job. Professionally recorded with lots of stuff going on, Hoke allows this book to flow nicely.
I received a free copy of this book. It has not affected my review of my opinion.

"a surprising gem"
Yes, this story was a great listen that I found very hard to walk away from
First, to get it out of the way, I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.That being said, if you are looking for H. G. Wells you will be disappointed , But, if you let this story stand on its own merit, you will be pleased. This is military SF so if that isn't your style I would recommend you pass it by. But if you like David Drake, or John Ringo I think you will find this story well worth your time.
"Did Not Finish"
This is my problem only, not the fault of the author or the narrator---the narrator's voice grated on my hearing to the point where it was going to be a real distraction from the story. My apologies to both!
"War drama in an alternate-history"
Top 100
Really enjoyed the Earth's revenge against the Martians
No I have not, Samuel E Hoke III is ideally suited to this war drama
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
"A New Classic"
This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.
This book was great. I am a fan of the original War of the Worlds and who doesn't want to find out what happens next. Written in the vein of classic Sci-Fi this story has such a different feel than most modern space stories. I found myself wanting to revisit some old favorites dealing with space travel and Mars.
"A Solid Continuation"
I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher for an unbiased review. This book is actually a nice addition to the original War of the Worlds book. The narrator did a fine job of reading the book I really enjoyed the Earth's revenge against the Martians. If you are a fan of the original book, you'll probably like this one. It was nice to see someone take the original story and go with it.
"A war drama in an alternate-history"
HG Wells' story of alien invasion was first published in 1897 and made infamous to modern audiences by Orson Welles and his Mercury Theatre on the Air when, on 30 October 1938, they broadcast a one-hour full cast radio play adaptation, primarily told in the style of news bulletins interrupting an orchestral program.
For those who tuned in late, the unique presentation of the story supposedly caught listeners off-guard, creating a nation-wide panic that the alien invasion was real. To this day, Orson Welles' adaption of War of the Worlds is not only considered a classic, but it arguably remains the most recognised and celebrated radio play ever broadcast.
Authors Mark Gardner & John J Rust now offer up this unofficial sequel to HG Wells' original novel, set in 1924, some 25 years after the failed Martian invasion. Armed with adapted alien technology, mankind has advanced their weaponry and developed their own spaceships with the intent of taking the fight to Mars. Although more than two decades have passed in peace, mankind is determined to secure itself from future invasions by wiping out the Martians once and for all.
Mixing fictional characters with real historical figures like George Patton, Erwin Rommel, Charles de Gaulle and Georgy Zhukov, the authors do the unexpected by telling their story from both sides of the battlelines. We get to meet multiple Martian characters as they are forced on the defensive and face their own internal politics, while we also ride the wave of hopeful victory with the human fleet.
The deep voice of narrator Samuel E Hoke III is ideally suited to this war drama. Despite the alternate-history/science-fiction basis of the plot, War of the Worlds: Retaliation is a straight up action war story. Its focus is on the battlelines, the frontline soldiers, and their leaders. Hoke captures the accents of Earth's dissenting nations just as well as he details the great space battle that ensues when humankind reaches Mars. The use of spaceships instead of aeroplanes and tanks is secondary to the theme however. Fans of classic war dramas could enjoy this title as much as lovers of science-fiction.

"Good premise and story, disappointing narration."
This book was voluntarily provided to me, free of cost, by the author / narrator / publisher. I'm leaving an unbiased review for the book.
I loved the premise of the book from the get go. The Independence Day 2 movie was a huge let down, so I was hoping this book would live up to the promise. And for most part, it did. The action sequences are well written and draws the listener in. The narrator's raspy and bass-heavy voice was a little distracting though. I get that they were going for army big-wig effect with that voice, but after a while it gets irritating. Nonetheless, once I got used to it, the rest of the book was alright.
"Take that, Martians!"
War of the Worlds: Retaliation is a sequel to the original War of the Worlds novel by H.G. Wells. According to the Kickstarter page, it was originally posted as a short story by John J. Rust on a fanfiction site and things spiraled out from there. It's written in a familiar alternate-history format where one will recognize familiar names and faces, such as that of General Patton. The authors appear to have done at least some basic homework to add realism to their story, such as their nod to Patton's believing in reincarnation. And, given that this is set only a few decades after the Martian invasion, the world isn't quite as incredibly advanced as it could have been with that particular starting point. Hydrogen cell cars, a basic version of the internet, etc.
And apparently a compass that somehow works on a planet with no magnetic field. ( Yes, I will fixate on one line early in the book. I can't help it. It made me go "Wait, what?" )
One of the things that I thought they did very well with this novel was the fact that they didn't pretend that the invasion brought all earthlings together into this blissful state of cooperation and unity. Yes, humans work together, but even early on in the novel it's clear that the world hasn't been participating in one gigantic campfire sit since the Martians attacked. This continues through to the very end where we see some scenes from after the big battle finishes. War of the Worlds: Retaliation is perhaps one of the most realistic looks at humanity in the years after an alien attack that I've ever read.
I listened to War of the Worlds: Retaliation as an audio book and Samuel E. Hoke III did a solid job with the narration. His voice is very low and gravely, so I worried at first that I'd have trouble telling some of the characters apart. Luckily he's a decent hand with accents and was able to vary his pitch just enough that I didn't have too many problems. He kept me fairly engaged with the story, and his voice tolerated an increase to 1.50x speed without much distortion.
However, while War of the Worlds: Retaliation did have a lot going for it, it just didn't do it for me. I was never really able to lose myself completely in the story. I found myself disappointed that the Martians from had been graduated from opaque alien horrors to something that felt a step or two up (in a good way) from the Mars Attacks! Martians. As it always seems, when we humanize something that was completely alien, pardon the pun, or terrifying, that fear scales back dramatically.
Overall, it was a good listen, just not a great one for me. Still, it was fun to play in the "What-if" sandbox for a while, and I applaud Gardner and Rust for their imagination and work in bringing War of the Worlds: Retaliation to life.

As much as I love Christmas and the holidays after they are over I am worn out. Marianne and I have been going non-stop it seems. The holidays are like a vacation. You need another vacation to relax after them!
Christmas eve we were at Marianne's mom's house, Christmas day of course was busy, then we saw friends and family every night including New Years Eve. We even saw Jersey Boys at the Fisher Theater. ( I would recommend that show….it was great) Now most of the nights weren't super late, but when you go that many days in a row fatigue sets in. Today we just lounged around and took it easy. Now comes the chores of taking all the decorations down.
Time to try to keep some of those New Years resolutions. Time to go back to work. Yes I didn't win that big lotto jackpot back in December so I am back to the working ranks.
I hope you had a great holiday season. I know many people don't celebrate Christmas but I hope each and every one of you enjoyed the time off.

Smartphones enable teens to connect and engage with their friends and the world. These devices can also capitalize on the impulsivity of teenagers. Add in hormones and boyfriend/girlfrend, teens may be tempted to take or share a sext.
I wrote about sexting with Amy Lang, from Bird+Bees+Kids, almost 4 years ago. We collaborated on a script to help parents talk with their young teen about sexting. At the time, sexting and Snapchat were creating headlines but most research showed sending nude or partially nude photos among teens was very rare.
Sexting did not feel rare when I heard teens were sharing nude photos at the local high school. At a parent education class, our high school resource officer talked about sexting on campus. While most teens were not sexting, some teens had sent nude or partially nude photos. These students were surprised to hear that taking and/or sending these photos were illegal when under 18.
Unfortunately, many kids are only hearing about sexting at an internet safety assembly in middle school. At this age, most kids probably can never imagine a situation where they would share this type of picture. The risks of sexting are easily forgotten. Flash forward to 11th grade and sharing an intimate photo may not seem so far-fetched.
The one-off internet safety class is not going to cover them through graduation. Families should take some time this summer to revisit sexting. A quick google search of "sexting" will provide many news stories to help start a conversation. Parents can use these stories to talk about what sexting is, the risks and what they should do if someone pressures them to send a photo or if they receive a photo.
Sexting 101
You would think this would be the easiest part of the article. The definition of sexting changes depending on the study or article. For example, some studies include sexy texts while others limit sexting to only photos. Based on your values and age of your child, parents may want to adjust their family's definition. Generally, the definition is "sexting is the sharing, creating and forwarding of sexually suggestive texts or nearly nude or nude images." For this article, I am limiting the definition of sexting to only photos.
Depending on what study you read, sexting is either an epidemic or an outlier activity. I can find studies that say 4% of teens have sent a sext and some that say 40%. This variability is due to how sexting is defined, what ages are surveyed and how the survey is conducted. Honestly, to a certain extent does the percentage matter. Parenting is not about covering the most likely scenarios. While we hope it is not our kid, there is always that parenting voice that says "may be our kid."
Sexting & the Law
While teens may see sexting as no big deal, it is legally a big deal. In some cases, teens can legally have sex but still not legally send a nude or nearly nude photo. For most states, the age of sexual consent is 16. Here in Washington, the age is 16 but there can only be a 4 year age difference between the couple. When under 18, sexting is a felony.
Under US federal laws, a sexually explicit image of a child under age 18 is child pornography. This is true even if a teenager chooses to take a picture of themselves. After taking the picture, they are now in possession of child pornography. If they share it, they are distributing child pornography. Whoever receives it is in possession of child pornography.
Some states are making an exception for teenagers sending a nude or semi-nude photo within a consensual relationship. A survey conducted by US cyberbullying of sexting laws and minors found 20 states have included provisions for minors that have sent or received sexually explicit images of other minors. Many of these laws reduce consensual sexting between minors as a misdemeanor. In all states, most prosecutors are reluctant to pursue felony charges unless there was an adult (over 18) involved, the teen felt coerced into sending the photo, the photo was shared beyond the couple or posted on a public website.
Talking with Teens about Sexting
While it is important to talk about the legal issues, the conversation should not end at sexting is illegal so don't do it. They reality is they probably know someone who sent a sext and was not hauled off in handcuffs. Families should also include the other risks and harms of sexting.
Most teenage relationships do not last forever. When a relationship ends and hurt feeling are involved, those pictures they promised never to send can leak out. Teens may be under the false impression that photos, sent through apps like Snapchat, disappear. Within any app, friends can take a picture of the screen or take a screenshot. These photos never truly disappear and can be forwarded or posted the next day or years from now.
Before you are dealing with a naked picture on a phone, talk with teens about the facts and the risks of sexting and let them know about your expectations. Here are a 7 talking posts adapted from Adding Sexting to "THE TALK".
- Friends may tell you sexting is no big deal but sexting is a big deal. These photos are considered child pornography and it is illegal to take and send these pictures. Even a picture you take of yourself is illegal.
- You may feel pressure to act sexy but you are in charge of your own body and image. Sexting gives someone else that control. No one who loves you or cares about you should pressure or demand a text or image that could hurt you.
- If someone is pressuring you to send a suggestive photo, I hope you will let us know. You can always tell them your parents check your phone so you cannot have these type of pictures on your device.
- Whoever receives this image can easily copy it and send it to people who you do not trust or would not want to have access to this image. Once a text like this is sent, it can be forwarded to anyone.
- You should never ask someone to send or forward a sexually suggestive text or picture.
- If you do receive an image or message, you should not forward or share it with others. The best course of action is to delete the photo. If you do receive these images, we hope you will let us know.
- I want you to know that I understand kids make mistakes and do stupid and impulsive things. If you do something like this, please tell me. I might be mad and disappointed, but I would do everything I could to help you figure out what to do.
Safer Sexting
Adults, over 18, can legally sext. According to a recent survey, 88% of adults have sent a sext. For adults, sexting is becoming part of intimate, committed relationship.
There is no such thing as safe sexting. Sexting always carries risks. Just like in high school, these pictures can be shared more widely. If you have a teen over 18 or getting close, parents may want to add safer sexting tips to their conversation (or leave this article from PCMag open on their laptop).
6 Tips for Safer Sexting
- Enthusiastic consent – This means both agree and are equally excited about sharing photos. Partners can offer to send a sext but they should never ask or demand a photo. Pressuring someone to send a photo is not part of a healthy relationship.
- Two way street – When both have photos, they both share the risk. This is considered mutually assured destruction. Unfortunately, society judges women much more harshly for sharing these type of photos than men. This is not a perfect solution. Even so, both partners having sexy photos shows a level of trust on both sides.
- Remove identifying details – To prevent a picture from coming back to haunt them, adults can remove identifying features such as their face, background and exif data.
- Never forward these pictures – These pictures should never be shown to a friend, posted on social network/website or forwarded. Private, intimate photos are only for couples.
- Lock your phone – Do not have these pictures out in the open where if someone grabbed your phone they could find and forward these photos. Your phone should be locked down or the picture removed off the phone.
- Delete photos – Once the relationship ends, the pictures are immediately destroyed

D-BOX® Technology, Inc. (TSXV : DBO.A) adds to their patented line-up of motion simulator products with the introduction of Quest™
With Pricing Starting Around $5K, D -BOX Brings Their First Line of Mainstream Motion Simulator Seating To The Home Theater Market.
Las Vegas, NV - CES Jan 6 - 9, LVCC South, Booth # 25212 - D -BOX® Technology, Inc. (TSXV : DBO.A) adds to their patented line -up of motion simulator products with the introduction of Quest™. An affordable alternative to their award winning Odyssee® motion simulator products, Quest integrates a 2 -axis motion simulator system into an exquisitely designed reclining theater chair or loveseat for the ultimate home theater experience.
Motion simulation brings the excitement of home theater to an entirely new, immersive level by providing dramatic, realistic motion that is perfectly synchronized with the onscreen action and sound. Quest chairs and loveseats integrate a pair of direct -drive actuators that move and lift the seating with up to 2Gs of acceleration to transform you from mere viewer to participant. D -BOX spends an average of two weeks encoding a single movie with their proprietary F/X motion codes and its library of over 400 movie titles grows at the rate of about 10 -12 titles per month. Among the newer titles available are Spider -Man 2, The Chronicles of Riddick, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban and Shrek 2.
Quest seating can be controlled two ways - with the Series 3 Kinetron™ controller, or with a Motion Controller Interface (MCI) and PC -based software, both of which offer Internet subscription updates to the growing collection of D -BOX F/X motion codes. Both control systems include D -BOX's F/X Motion Code Volume 1 with 100 titles. Additional volumes of 100 titles each are also available.
Even the most raucous motion cannot distract from a seat that is uncomfortable. That's why D -BOX went to great lengths to create seating that is not only visually appealing, but comfortable. Both the recliner and loveseat feature manual or motorized "wall -hugger" recliner mechanisms and can be covered in six different NuSuede colors or ten different shades of 100% premium leather. Non -activated seating is also available and can be outfitted at a later date with Quest motion components. Each chair and loveseat frame is rigidly fabricated from hardwood solids and 13 -ply European hardwood plywood with metal -to -metal fasteners to withstand the substantial motional forces created by the direct -drive actuators.
MSRP of Quest™ Integrated Motion Simulated Seating begins at $5,299 for a single chair with manual recline covered in NuSuede, to $10,299 for a loveseat with motorized recline covered in premium leather. MSRP of non -activated seating begins at $1,699 and goes up to $6,199. MSRP of the add -on, field -installable motion simulator system is $4,499. MSRP of the PC -based Motion Controller Interface (MCI) and Windows® software is $799. MSRP of the Series 3 Kinetron™ Controller with 40 -GB hard drive is $2,999. MSRP of F/X Motion Code Vol. 1, 2, 3, & 4 are $250/each. All prices given are US. Software and most seating will be available January 1, 2005.
D -BOX® Technology, Inc. (TSXV : DBO.A) conceives, manufactures and markets motion simulators capable of generating movement that is perfectly synchronized with onscreen images and sounds from movies.

At the groundbreaking National Institutes of Health (NIH) HHT meeting in June 2006, it was our pleasure to award two new HHT research grants. There had been an extensive peer review of ten proposals. The two winning projects were:
Mechanism of Disease $50,000 Research Grant Award
TGF-B Activates eNOS and Regulates Vasomotor Function by an endoglin-and Alk-1' Dependent Mechanism
Dr. Michelle Letarte
Toronto Hospital for Sick Children, Canada
According to Dr. Letarte, "The genes mutated in HHT are endoglin and ALK1. The products of these genes, the endoglin and ALK1 proteins, are receptors for a potent factor called TGF-ß. We now have recent evidence that this TGF-ß factor may control the dilatation of blood vessels. We hypothesize that this normal process of regulation of vessel dilatation by TGF-ß is defective in HHT and can eventually lead to the clinical manifestations of disease. We will use the mouse models of HHT1 and HHT2 and test blood vessels isolated from these mice to see how they respond to TGF-ß compared to those of normal mice. We will then identify the molecules and pathways responsible for the effects of TGF-ß in cells from mice and patients with HHT. Our experiments should provide a better understanding of the mechanisms responsible for the early events in the disease and pave the way to novel therapeutic interventions.
Our specific objectives are:
- To measure the effects of TGF-b1 on eNOS-dependent vasodilation in small resistance arteries isolated from Eng+/- (HHT1 model) and control mice, using a perfusion myograph.
- To test whether TGF-b1 regulation of eNOS-dependent vasodilation is similarly altered in HHT2. Vasodilation will be measured on small resistance arteries from alk1+/- and control mice.
- To characterize the mechanism of TGF-b1-induced eNOS activation in murine endothelial cells (normal and deficient endoglin) and in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) from newborns with a molecular diagnostic of HHT1 or HHT2. We will measure the effects of TGF-b1 on eNOS enzymatic activity, eNOS-Hsp90 association, and eNOS phosphorylation using specific anti-phospho-eNOS antibodies. We will test for the association of ALK1 with eNOS and/or Hsp90 and see if its overexpression in endothelial cells amplifies the activation of eNOS by TGF-b1.
Dr. Letarte states, "We are very grateful to the HHT International Foundation for awarding us this grant and thank all of you for your kind donations. Our daily efforts are devoted to understanding the underlying mechanisms of HHT through basic research. We could not do it without your generous financial and moral support."
Treatment of Disease $50,000 Research Grant Award
Differentiation of Eng-/- Embryonic Stem Cells in Embryoid Bodies, a Paradigm for Vascuaogenesis/Angiogenesis
Defects in HHT and a Potential Drug Screen
Professor Christine Mummery
Utrecht, The Netherlands
This study will examine the effects of Thalidomide on blood vessel structure. According to Professor Mummery, "By studying the effects of thalidomide on vessel stabilization, we propose (1) to validate the Eng-/vasculogenesis/angiogenesis assay as a useful method in screening potential HHT drugs, particularly those directed towards improving vessel robustness and (2) to determine the mechanisms underlying vessel stabilization. We will attempt to generate a human model of HHT development in vitro."
Research Plan
(1) Mechanism underlying vessel stabilization. By using FACS sorting, ECs and SMCs will be isolated from 18 day Eng-/- EBs treated or otherwise with thalidomide. Transcriptional profiles will be compared both by microarray analysis and by real time RT-PCR to identify signaling pathways that may underlie the effects observed.
(2) Validation of the EB vasculogenesis/angiogenesis assay for screening HHT drugs. To date our experiments have been performed using only one of each wt, Eng+/- and Eng-/- ES cell lines. To validate our model, multiple new mES cell lines lacking or heterozygous for endoglin will be generated from blastocysts isolated from Eng+/- crosses and EB differentiation in presence of thalidomide will be repeated.
(3) Since we have expertise in the differentiation of multiple human ESC (HESC) lines into mesoderm derivatives, including vascular cells, in EBs we will test the effects of thalidomide in an analogous model to validate and extend our findings on vessel stabilization to human. Time permitting and the context of other studies to optimize siRNA-mediated knockdown in HESCs, we will attempt to generate a human model of HHT development in vitro.

Please go to the prediction submission form to submit you predictions for the CBS dataset (to submit, you need to be logged into your account).
Background: CBS is a vitamin-dependent enzyme involved in cysteine biosynthesis via the transsulfuration pathway. The human CBS requires two cofactors for function, vitamin B6 (in the active form of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate [PLP], supplemented in the soluble form of pyridoxine) and heme.
Dataset: 57 single amino acid mutations were introduced within the human CBS coding region. These mutations are synthetic, and are thus not necessarily clinically observed. The effect of each mutation was measured with yeast complementation assay, where growth is dependent upon the level of mutant function. Rates are expressed as a percentage relative to wild type grown with the same amount of exogenous pyridoxine supplementation, plus and minus the standard deviation. Two concentrations of pyridoxine, high and low, are provided.
The reference sequences within NCBI Entrez database are:
mRNA reference sequence NM_000071
protein reference sequence NP_000062
Example dataset: Predictors are provided an example dataset (please see below), where the relative growth rates of 6 single amino acid human CBS substitutions are given. In this example dataset, a qualitative assessment of the change in functionality is given in addition to the growth rate.
|Nucleotide Mutation(s)
|Substituted Residue
|Growth Rate 400 ng/ml Pyridoxine
|Change in functionality
|Growth Rate 2 ng/ml Pyridoxine
|Change in functionality
|103 +/- 25
|79 +/- 8
|severely impaired
|70 +/- 12
|37 +/- 13
|109 +/- 14
|106 +/- 17
|severely impaired
|104 +/- 19
|95 +/- 20
Prediction dataset: 51 single amino acid mutations within the human CBS coding region. The dataset is available for download here: CBS-prediction-dataset. The file was revised 3 Nov 2010 to exclude the example dataset of 6 mutations.
Prediction challenge: Predictors are asked to submit predictions on the effect of the mutations in the function of CBS both in high co-factor (pyridoxine) concentration (400ng/ml) and in low co-factor concentration (2ng/ml). The submitted prediction should be a numeric value with a standard deviation. In addition, we ask predictors to submit the raw output data of the prediction algorithm. The predictions will be assessed against the numeric values actually measured for each mutation in the yeast assay.
Prediction submission format: The prediction submission is a simple text file. The organizers provide a file template, which should be used for submission. In the submitted file, each line should include the following columns:
1) The substituted residue as listed in the prediction dataset file, use the order as provided in the template form
2) Prediction of relative growth rate in high pyridoxine concentration (400ng/ml)
3) Standard deviation of the prediction in column 2
4) Prediction of relative growth rate in low pyridoxine concentration (2 ng/ml)
5) Standard deviation of the prediction in column 4
6) Raw output data from your prediction algorithm
Columns 1, 2, 4 and 6 are required, columns 3 and 5 are optional. In the template file, columns 2-6 are marked with an "*". Submit your predictions by replacing the "*" with your prediction value. If predictions cannot be submitted for a specific line (mutation), leave the sign "*" in these columns. The validity of the submitted prediction file will be checked with a script, so please make sure you follow these submission guidelines strictly.
In addition, your submission should include a detailed description of the method used to make the predictions. This information will be submitted as a separate file.
Please go to the prediction submission form to submit you predictions for the CBS dataset (to submit, you need to be logged into your account).
Please download a Pdf document (CBS_description_and_data.pdf) for a more through background information, the example dataset and prediction datasets. The file was revised 3 Nov 2010 to exclude the example dataset from prediction dataset list and to add edits to the table presenting the example dataset.

The summons will likely be for careless driving. If this is the charge on the court papers then this is likely to be a fine and court costs. In some cases if this is a first offence you can ask for diversion which will leave her record clean. She should ask the police if they will look at this before pleading to the charge. It is however possible that she may be charged with careless driving causing injury. This is more serious and she would be fined more, and also be prevented from driving/ or trying to get a licence for 6 months. The fine will depend on what she can pay.

Sumiye Egnell is the second oldest of the Egnell siblings and is known as Explosive Bunny by her peers. She was a member of the Kawaii 5-0, a group usually tasked with apprehending extremely dangerous criminals in Destiny City.
She's a girl with a cute, slender figure. She has dark black-colored hair and red eyes; with a knack for bunny themed clothing. Indeed she has been described by others to look like a big black rabbit. She is usually seen wearing a black bikini under her black bunny jacket with flipflops.
Her left arm and eye are artificial specialized cybernetics; she lost them in an accident of maneuverability when she was holding off a monstrous Ex Nihilo so her friends could flee.
Furthermore, Sumiye is often seen with a black tablet that contains her research and the controls for her bombs, it is probably a type of grimoire.
Sumiye is a devilish trickster who likes trolling everyone around her for kicks any giggles. Despite her trollish nature, she values teamwork and cares deeply about her friends and family. She is also very calculating and intelligent with a plan for anything.
Sumiye is also suspicious of drugs, and is unwilling to use medicine when she was sick.
On a deeper level, her actions suggest she is a lonely person wishing for human connection, especially from Nayuta - whom she admires or, at least, respects as a worthy opponent.
She has the habit of often using the term "Kekkyoku," which can be translated as "Basically" or "In the end" in her speech. Her younger sister also has a similar trait.
Blast Master- Sumiye has the ability to sense whenever an explosion occurs, she can weaken the strength of explosives and she can also amplify the explosive power of her explosives.
Enhanced Strength: She can give both powerful punches and kicks, as experienced by both Claudia Arcturus and Nayuta Mitsuari, both of whom had an urge to vomit after being hit in the stomach.
Enhanced Durability: Sumiye is very resilient, being able to stand back up even after an entire Dominator clip being emptied into her and having her left arm blown off. Sumiye has a vast amount of physical durability: without the aid of her Foo Fighters suits, she was able to take the brunt of a magical nuke, and then go on to easily defeat three Cyber ninjas, all of which are high level threats, after receiving only a very brief amount of time to rest and heal after losing her eye.
Victoria's Secret Compartment: She is also somehow able to conceal missiles in her shirt, possesses a perfume bottle of a vaporous, breathable Destiny City-made explosive known as Blaze, and has hidden, poisoned and, serrated stilettos in her both of her shoes. Unfortunately, she is prone to losing her focus in battle when she has the advantage, and she even admits that she underestimates others a lot. She is also has superb chemistry skills, which she apparently uses for her explosives.
Performance Art Intuition: There is circumstantial evidence that Sumiye may be a talented actress, capable of putting up a convincing facade of uncertainty and helplessness.
Peak Human Intelligence: Sumiye is a certified genius that graduated from Virginia Tech when she was eleven years old. She has a unique understanding of chemicals, explosives and surveillance.
Hand-to-Hand Combat: Sumiye is a very skilled hand-to-hand fighter. She easily defeats Jiao, who is a rather experienced street fighter herself, without Jiao even being able to land a single hit. Jiao claims that the only way she could possibly beat Sumiye in hand-to-hand was if it was two against one. Furthermore, Sumiye is not restrained in any rule of honor, allowing her to do dirty tricks and low blows to an opponent without hesitation. It should be noted that while she is an excellent courier and escape artist she is not suited in fighting long, drawn-out battles. Despite her amazing fighting skills, she heavily relies on her bombs and taser most of the time against people physically stronger than her. Apparently from playing tons of fighting games, she has learned how to use various wrestling-like grappling moves and submission holds.
- Deadly Killer Boxing: Is the fighting style used by Sumiye. It is formed from the illegal techniques of all sorts of martial arts mixed with American Wrestling. In top fighting form, even Nayuta Mitsuari's skill in deception would not be able to keep up against Sumiye. Deadly Killer Boxing can best be explained as an art of assassination devised by the small breasted to be used by the small breasted. Admittedly she only truly excels at destruction. The fighting style also incorporates exploding fireworks since Sumiye can visualize those the best. She can expel those spells from any of her limbs making them look like rocket burners. Of course Sumiye can fire classic straight blasts of magic as well or make the beams home in on a target. She also uses her handmade grenades and her ability to turn into a chainsaw to in conjunction with her Deadly Killer Boxing.
- Explosive Combat- Sumiye is very skilled on the use of several types of explosives, using them to lay traps and as a weapon in the middle of combat. While normally using remote-controlled bombs, she has also shown to use fuse bombs and tripwire bombs.
- Set Up: Sumiye places a levitating orb of magic energy in the air that acts like a proximity mine. Once the enemy got close enough, the magic orb violently blows up. She can place up to four at a time and also program them to move towards the opponent.
- Magic Missile: Sumiye takes all of the energy within the atmosphere and concentrates it into one spot, then fires it as an extremely dense, high-temperature energy shot.
Magical Trap Tactics- Sumiye has created a countless number of magical trap orbs and plates that can cause virtually any effect imaginable; she is also a mechanical genius that can make a variety of complicated devices to capture foes.
Hidden Weapon Proficiency- She proves to be skilled in close combat and is proficient with using an array of concealed weapons, especially with handheld remote-controlled anti-tank missile warheads and throwing knives.
Wall of Explosions: Sumiye can produce a seemingly endless barrage of millions of billions of explosions in an instant. The explosions are individually weak, but all together they are stated to be so powerful that even the most powerful Ancient Gods are defenseless against 10 minutes of non-stop explosions.
Wind Lance- A spell that allows Sumiye to launch twenty wind lances at her opponent at high speeds. One lance explodes with enough force to uproot a Sequoia tree.
Magic Apps
- Battlefield H.U.D Magic App- A magic app that can 99% accurately survey and replicate a 2.5 acre area in fifteen minutes while also pin-pointing the user's location and other objects. It can even be used to detect incoming attacks from 13 meters away. The magic com dev must remain perfectly still while the app is surveying the area. She uses her eight Stalker Drones to speed up the process drastically.
- Butcher Magic App- A magic app that allows the user to summon a large butcher's knife to hand. Sumiye uses the butcher knife in melee combat once she runs out of grandes.
Artificial Limbs: After she lost her left arm and eye, Sumiye was given cybernetic ones that were created for her by a certain awesome guy just like her sister's Durandal. Using the eye, allows her to track massively FTL movements, while her arm is strong enough to even crush large gold boulders with ease and it can stretch up to seven feet. Her arm is made of Omni-steel which is highly resistant to energy, impacts, heat, ice, psionic, magic, telekinetic, and, explosive attacks. Her cybernetic eye is immune to being effected by visual powers, has night vision, and has telescopic vision.
- Arm Transformation: Her arm can morph into a minigun or bladed weapons, however this uses a lot of Mana.
Stalker Drones: She has a group of eight magi-tech drones at her disposal that helps gather information and do recon and surveillance for her whenever she goes into unknown territory. They are a thought-driven interface that enables Sumiye to control the aerial scouting devices, which gives her the target's location, temperature and humidity of the environment, and the wind speed. She is able to control all eight of the scouting devices at a time. The information is fed directly back to her and is also displayed on her Magic Communication Device's screen.
Stun Gun: A small phone-sized device resembling a toy gun that uses amplification circuits to send out a high power pulse to destroy electronic circuits and unlock doors without producing any noise or light.
As an explosives and surveillance expert, Sumiye uses various forms of explosives. This ranges from grenades, pyrotechnics, gun powered, and plastic explosives. One of her more frequent types is call an En Bloc to destroy entire city blocks.
Miscellaneous: She has dozens of meters of fuse tape, several electrical igniters, a hidden blade in her shoe, tripwire, earplugs, and small bottle of Blaze. Her jacket amplifies her hearing range several feet.
- Bikini Armor- Her black bikini can turn into a full body Dark Metal plate armor that increases her physical condition, magical, and psychic resistance. It's light weight and highly flexible, allowing the user great mobility while in combat. The armor can only be activated in times of great distress and danger.
Wizard Saints Identicard: Sumiye holds a Wizard Saints Identicard that identifies her as a member of the 13 Wizard Saints and grants her the associated privileges.
Warhead Launcher: Sumiye's Jewel-Forge. The Warhead Launcher is an effective artillery weapon, allowing her to bombard a large area with excellent precision and deadly force. The Warhead Launcher fires eight Boss Lady Missiles at once instead of one, making it more powerful and with a bigger blast radius, at the cost of losing eight Boss Lady Missiles at once.
Bind Canceller: An earring-like device that she wears which can undo magical and mechanical traps. She is able to cancel the Trap King's magical binding trap.
Types of specialized grenades
Sumiye's specialized grenades are usually made from cold dark matter and her magical energy, specialized variant of dark matter, with a futuristic design; of course, each of the specialized grenade types has its own unique design. The specialized grenades can only be activated by the Sumiye. How she is "modified" for the bombs is unknown, but the bombs do only need a fingerprint of her's. This means that other people can use these specialized grenades as well, so long as they are activated by the Sumiye's fingerprint and are then deactivated by that other person. She keeps her specialized grenades in a specially designed bandolier with a storage magic app, accommodating the shapes of each specialized grenades type they come with for storing and accessing with ease. She carries ten of each type of grenade with her at all times. She has the material and equipment needed to make homemade explosives.
Turtle Grenades, the most common of her specialized grenades. A simple bomb that explodes on impact.
- Black Turtle Grenades: Larger, more destructive visions of the usual Turtle Grenades.
Genetic Concussion Grenades, Pieces of Plutonian technology that, once after detonation, horribly wrought one's genetic structure beyond comprehension. Agonizingly warping the recipients bodies apart as their D.N.A caustically disintegrates. These types of grenades are rarely used in direct combat.
Timer Grenades, a Grenade that counts down from 10 seconds (with a max of 13 seconds) until it detonates. One can also adjust the grenades' timer to any second upon deactivation. With this Grenade, timing is important in tactical usage.
Implosion Grenades, a spectacular Grenade that sucks in its surroundings and then implodes. It is mostly used for destroying large, thick objects.
Blazing Gas Grenades, a Grenade that spouts blazing gas when exploding. It is useful for exposing enemies in deep forest. The wind affects the distribution of gas.
Homing Grenade, a Grenade that can lock-on and follow its target via a small propeller until coming into range and exploding. However, this Grenade does not have a very high explosive capacity.
- Hunter Grenade: Faster and stronger version of the usual homing grenade.
Overkill Grenades: All Reapers carry rare and exotic Overkill Grenades in order to even further enhance their effectiveness at killing wielders of supernatural power. Made from psi-refractive particles gathered from the Cavern of Fear, Overkill Grenades are effective on normal beings, and even more effective on abnormal ones. Sentient beings who do not make use of psychic or magical powers will simply lose conscious thought, making them easy targets. However, for those that make use of reality-bending abilities, the negative psychic energy from the grenades will cause their powers and abilities to fundamentally collapse and implode, destroying them from deep within their very soul all the way to their physical form. These are too risky and heavy to use in combat so these are only used as a last resort.
Ninja Bomb: A special ninja tool that creates a cloud of smoke when it detonates. It may look like small spheres wrapped in paper or like canisters. Smoke bombs are typically used to blind opponents and make them easier to attack. Alternatively, ninja can use smoke bombs on themselves so that opponents cannot see what they are doing. These bombs can contain different types of gaseous substances ranging from harmless ones used to simply create a cover for a shinobi to advance or retreat, poison, and even sleeping gas. She has three harmless smoke bombs, two poison gas bombs, one sleep gas bomb, three explosive gas bombs, five dense smoke bombs, ten ghost chili pepper bombs, and several colored smoke bombs.
'Merica Matches: American made matches that burn far longer and brighter than normal matches. She uses these to ignite the Blaze and Explosive Gas.
Remote Control Grenades, a Grenade that can be detonated from a distance at a push of a button. They can be used as booby traps.
EMP Grenades, a Grande that can shut down high-power electronics for three minuets.
Flash Bang Grenades, a Grande that can blind people temporarily allowing the user the chance to escape or to attack.
Concussion Grenades, a Grande used to knock down opponents and blow off door locks.
1300°C Flammable Oil Splashing Flame Grenades, a Grenade that creates large walls of fire that go into four directions to corner an opponent.
Barrier Grenades, a Grenade that protects the user with a barrier for 180 seconds.
Stasis Field Grenades, a Grande that generates a temporary stasis field that slows down anyone who enters the stasis field.
- Time Lapse Grenade, These special bombs are engineered to send the target three hours into the future, and also dislocates them to three feet into the air. The bombs will displace the target even if cut or deflected by a weapons; the only defense against them is evasion, immunity to temporal powers, Time Travel, or to shoot/block them from a safe distance. In other words the target simply gets BFR. Has an effective range of 3 meters.
Fragmentation Grenade, Fragmentation grenades are small hand-thrown bombs. They contain a dense core of high explosives encased in a metallic body designed to fragment upon detonation.
Tangle Grenade, The tangle grenade was designed to be able to ensnare personnel with a tangler polymoid.
C4 Explosives- Sumiye makes use of C4 explosives with trip wires, which combine to make a very effective means of killing enemies. Sumiye also uses these explosives to destroy, buildings, pathways and cars to prevent the enemies escape.
Hologram Grenades, a Grande that has pre programmed holograms with them that are used for distractions.
Electrical Shock Grenades, a Grande that releases a powerful electrical blast that can takedown a dragon.
Cryogenic Grenades, a Grande that freezes whatever is caught in the 7 meter explosion. When a cryogenic grenade explodes, it has a chance to temporarily slow targets that managed to survive the initial blast.
Bog Gas Grenade, This grenade does not explode by itself, but instead releases highly-flammable gas vapors upon hitting the ground. The vapors can then be ignited from a distance with an energy or incendiary weapon, causing the leaking gas to erupt in a spectacular fireball.
Plasma Grenades, A compact explosive that deals a powerful combination of ballistic damage and energy damage.
- Boss Lady Missiles, a special missile that must be launched with her Jewel-Forge. When the red tab on the nose is pressed down, the atomic fission is activated and creates a small nuclear explosion.
Anti-tank Missiles, A Missile that can destroy an armored tank in one shot.
Magic Traps
- Water Prison Trap: A special trap made with a Ocean Blue Mana crystal. These are used to trap a victim inside a virtually inescapable sphere of water. Once trapped the target is unable to move or breathe while within it due to the heaviness of the water. Because of the density of the water it can be used, to a limited extent, for defensive purposes if used on oneself.
- Spring Trap: A special trap that launches whoever steps on it high into the air.
- Bubble Trap: A special trap created by fusing a White Mana crystal with a Baby Blue Mana crystal to create an explosion of bubbles. Highly Non-lethal but good for distracting people.
- Archaic Landmines: Land mines from WW1.
- Her cybernetic body parts operate on a magical power source which can run out quickly if she takes part in long battle.
- Normal human weaknesses
- Her strategy is constant, so she can be considered predictable if her opponent is aware of her usual tactics.
- The tablet which lets her use her Magic Apps only has 7 hours of battery life.
