Duffy's story: Adorable Duffy is likely mixed with Boston terrier. He was rescued in September from a high-kill shelter. He was suffering from a skin condition, and nobody wanted him. He is on a simple medication regimen for life that costs about $30 a month. He also has an enlarged heart and liver that need to be monitored. Duffy is such a roly-poly little love – yes, he is overweight, but that's what makes him so adorable. Duffy is good with dogs and cats and is good on leash, though he can be a little nippy with strangers then. He is independent, loves to snuggle but also enjoys his space.

Pablo's story: Pablo was dropped off at a kennel by another rescue a little over a month ago; the rescue never came back for him or paid his bill.

We found that he is an absolute love who gets along with other dogs, is very affectionate and really enjoys toys. Our hearts cannot leave Pablo to a tragic fate. He needs and deserves a forever home. Will you consider meeting this sweet old man who still has a lot of life to live?

dating this woman--in the past she had a partner that had herpes--a couple of years ago--she has never had any sign of herpes--what are the risk of her being a carrier??--can she be tested??READ MORE
herpes carrier??
Hi Tom,
Thanks for your question. Though I'm not a doctor, and cannot give medical advice, I do have herpes and I think I can answer your questions.
The risk of your new interest having herpes is a function of many things, like how often she used protection with her boyfriend, how often he had outbreaks, whether he was on medication, etc. If they knew the whole time that he had it, chances are they were safer than if he found out after. I don't know the whole story, so I'm sure the risk of her being a carrier is just as high as any other sexually active person.
Yes, she can be tested. There are many ways to get it done. I had a blood test, in which they look not for herpes but for herpes antibodies. You can find more about different testing methods in HealthGal's post The Truth, the Whole Truth and...
I also recommend you check out Herpes Causes and Risk Factors as well as Genital Herpes Prevention.
Hope that helps!

I'm using the term "stalk" very loosely lol
They're the first users I get up to date with after logging in. The truth, there it is haha
Do you "stalk" your favourite gaggers?
I'm using the term "stalk" very loosely lol
Have an opinion?
What Girls Said 16
Yes... I stalk @centigrade and I have no shame. He doesn't care though so it's okay :) Lol
But really, there are some users that I check to see if they have answered any interesting questions because I think they give good responses in most cases.10|10|0
If I start typing in my browser and the first letter is h, a link to your profile is the first thing that pops up, lol. So yeaaaaa, I'm guilty :)
@centigrade hahaha omg. We can be stalkers together then :P lol
Although I may say many of the people that are following me I see them answering a lot of the same questions as me. So, that blows the stalk factor out of the window.
Also, obsessively following someone's posts isn't my cup of tea.00|00|1
Some people I will go and read through the comments that they have posted recently, but that's the point of following them isn't it? Because you find their posts humurous/intelligent and you want to read them? I don't consider it stalker-ish though...10|10|0
I wouldn't call it "stalking"
I do, however, dramatically start fan-girling whenever I see my favorites around gag LOL10|10|0
Of course I do but they all know about it and they're people I actually talk to.10|10|0
Yes there are a few I keep tabs on.10|10|0
Sometimes. Want me to stalk you :D11|00|0
Ma baby rght here :*
Nah, ain't nobody got time for that. I'm not a stalker in general, especially here on gag I don't stalk at all.00|00|0
Yes I do... :)00|00|0
no but we talk everyday00|00|0
I don't read much opinions even when it comes to those whose posts I enjoy, but I would check for some to see when they last logged it or so, out of curiosity.00|00|0
Sometime. I check to see if they've answered any questions I may want to answer.00|00|0
Yes sometimes. Haha. :P00|00|0
What Guys Said 14
I wish I had stalkers, I'd love the attention I have two people following me apparently they thought I was wise or something or they liked my beard I have no idea though00|00|0
don't be needy haha
I stalk one gagger but I also check out who I'm following in the live feed to answer questions but I'm not sure if that counts.11|00|0
Yeah, I totally do; I think it's something that everyone does once they've been on here long enough.22|00|0
I would go on their profile to help answer a question coz sometimes you find that there are smaller questions that build up to a bigger one. Also helps you find a solution that they might not have mentioned in their questions s00|00|0
I don't have favorite GAG users, and I am not a stalker in general.00|00|0
My Life feed is users' answers I follow but there are many questions out there that are not of much interest to me that are answered so, no, not really.00|00|0
Nah, ain't nobody got time for that.11|00|0
One girl I check for her questions she ask. Is that "stalking"?00|00|0
No that's weird00|00|1
Not really.00|00|0
Yeah kinda00|00|0
yea, just to see if they answered anything interesting that i may be willing to answer myself00|00|0
No, not at all.00|00|0

Bremshey Ambition Elliptical Review
treadmill Doctor Note :
Bremshey is a good value if you can find it.
The Bremshey Ambition, dispite the $100 price increase this year, is a good value in a crowded price range. The only real problems with this unit is that they have limited distribution in the US.

Congratulations to our graduates!Read what they studied
We asked our students, faculty and alumni what is so special about DSPT?Watch Video
Pursuing the truth as a community and dialoguing with the culture are essential elements of our education.Explore DSPT
Our programs integrate philosophy and theology to apply the wisdom of these traditions today.Explore DSPT
Check out the courses we are offering this fall! NEW this term: Philosophy of Religion: India and West - will be taught jointly by Anselm Ramelow, OP and Purushottama Billimoria, PhD.
Heidegger thinks of us as Dasein, those entities to whom the things of the world are available in their intelligibility. St. Thomas Aquinas thinks of us as humans, who are animals with reason that can perceive and understand the things around us.
We hold that philosophy and theology are two facets of a single conversation, taking into account both the insights that are discovered by human reason and those that are only accessible to us as they are revealed in Scripture and tradition.
For students wishing to focus their Master of Arts studies more on coursework, our theology department has developed this program to culminate in an exam rather than a thesis.
We asked our students, faculty and alumni what makes DSPT so special. Hear what they had to say.
What is a person? What does the notion of a soul add to that of a state of consciousness? This focused, collaborative course of study begins Fall 2017 and includes specifically designed seminar courses, guest lectures and more.
Meet our professors and learn about our classes, concentrations and programs to see what makes us unique. Do you have questions? Would you like to sit in on a class? Contact us to get more information or plan a visit.
As a historian of Medieval Christianity, my great love has been the religious culture of medieval Italy. I spent two years in Bologna, Italy, doing the research for my first book - an experience which left me with an abiding love of Italians and all things Italian, especially the food, history and culture.
I want to inspire students to engage in theological/philosophical study and discourse on the critical topics facing today's global communities. I hope that students in the classroom will be inspired to engage in ongoing research of the topics explored in the courses and seminars such that their study will have a positive impact on contemporary issues in Church and society.
We hold that philosophy and theology are two facets of a single conversation, taking into account both the insights that are discovered by human reason and those that are only accessible to us as they are revealed in Scripture and tradition.
Is DSPT a good fit for you? Take a look at this complete listing of our faculty members and their areas of interest.
Our Faculty value the necessary and fruitful partnership between philosophy and theology, creating a communal learning environment suffused with this interdisciplinary approach.
This class is designed to present a survey of some of the twentieth-century Thomists, and examine the development of the thought of St. Thomas in dialogue with the challenges of modernity and the problems of contemporary society.

Self-summaries are horrible. :I At least, the process of packaging myself up in something short and sweet to catch the consumer's eye- is horrible. I think if you really want to get a feel of who I am, what I like, and what I'm really looking for, you can take your time and find it here:
Any questions? Please ask!
I've just recently gotten out of a marriage and am seeing someone fantastic right now, but am always looking for new friends and new adventures. I need to be kept busy.
-I'm not "really good at" playing the Ukulele, but I like to play and pass the time when I'm relaxing and winding down from a long day.
-Eating all of your sweets
-Stealing your french fries like a fat kid.
Also, I am on the chubby side. I've recently (the last couple years) lost 100+ pounds, but I still have some work to do. Unfortunately, I have plateaued. Of course, working from home really doesn't help much! lol Hopefully I can find someone through this site that enjoys going for walks and hiking.
-Cirque Du Freak: the Saga of Darren Shan
-The Demonata Series
-The Saga of Larten Crepsley
-Squirrel Seeks Chipmunk
My favorite movies:

I'm not a huge TV show person.. I like your normal 90's kids stuff, Space Ghost Coast to Coast, Dragon Ball z, all that jazz. Ugly Americans, Bob's Burgers, and Archer. But, I'm all about Documentaries! Like, how fucking incredible is David Attenborough? Seriously... I'm just going to leave this here-
Music? I love most genres. I am particularly fond of:
-Tom Waits
-Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
-Leonard Cohen
-Love me some Elvis
-Big Bad Voodoo Daddy
-Simon and Garfunkel
-Billy Joel
I love cooking/baking and trying all kinds of new things!

Who is doing fall sports?
For once, neither of my kids is doing a fall sport! It feels so weird.
Bub has Boy Scouts and Mini has JROTC and choir stuff sometimes, but that's about it.
It feels so weird not having to get up early on the weekends to get anyone to practices, etc.
So ladies, are your kiddos doing fall sports?

text: I played Bioshock and loved it and want to continue, but I've also played Portal 2 and want to play the first one . . . Problem is I've heard Bioshock 2 is dissapointing compared to the first and that Portal is shorter then Portal 2. Stressful decisions. What other games are in the Orange Box? Are they any good?


text: Yes, I know. We're all sick of these battery threads. But I just came across something I wanted to share with you all. Before I continue: I don't use any task killers. And I've read every battery trick thread on here and on XDA, so I've done it all. The CDMA fix. Rooting and using OCWidget. Charging it to 100%, turning it off, and then cycling the charge with the phone in the off state. And of course, disabling every data hungry app plus setting screen brightness to 50%. This is my 3rd Android phone, so it's definitely not my first rodeo. So last night I was using my Evo as it was on the charger. I was browsing the web, and checking out some new apps in the market, so the screen was on for quite a while. I took my Evo off the charger, did some heavy texting, some browsing, Facebook, Twitter, etc, etc, and about 5 hours later I was at 80%. I then put it on the charger, and went to bed. Fast forward to this morning: Took it off the charger, sent a few texts, and I'm down to 95% within minutes. Of course this frustrated me, since last night I went an hour before it even dropped to 99%. It'll be getting some heavy use today, so the last thing I want to do is leave the house with my battery in the 80% range. I put it back on the charger, and resumed normal usage. Some texting, Facebook, Movies app, Netflix app. Eventually the charging light goes green again. Took it off the charger an hour ago, did some texting, stayed connected to WiFi,and I'm still at 100%. Whereas earlier this morning it dropped 5% in minutes under the same use. Scratched my head for a second, and remembered that my phone was on and in use while charging last time, before I took it off and got great battery life. So now, I've set it so my Evo's screen stays on while charging. I also use the Power Control widget to increase the screen brightness to 100% while charging. And then once it's off the charger, just drop it to 50%. To keep the phone awake while charging: Menu -> Settings -> Applications -> Development -> And then tap the check box next to 'Stay awake'. Not saying this is guaranteed to work, and I have no rational explanation as to how this works, but it's definitely helping me. I'm going to do some testing and report back on a few things.

First, make sure you and your family are safe, and then do what you can to survey property damage and secure your home to protect your family and belongings from further risk or damage. The FPCA recommends that you follow the American Red Cross Hurricane Preparedness Checklist "What do I do after a hurricane?" http://www.redcross.org/images/MEDIA_CustomProductCatalog/m4340160_Hurricane.pdf.
Once your property is secured and your family is taken care of, the FPCA recommends that you immediately contact your insurance company to open a claim and arrange for an adjuster to inspect and document any damage. In some cases, the adjuster can also help bring in the contractors and materials necessary to make repairs.
Policyholders should call their agent, or insurance company's claims hotline, prior to signing any repair contract, and be wary of giving away their policy benefits and proceeds to a third party vendor.

Designing of an artificial expression cassette for the high-level expression of transgenes in plants
- Citations
- 324 Downloads
A dataset of highly expressed plant genes was developed from the nucleic acids sequence database. The characteristic features of the nucleotide sequences in TATA-box, transcription initiation, untranslated leader and translation initiation regions in the highly expressible genes in plants and the conserved sequences present 500 bp upstream of transcription initiation site were identified. These features were employed to theoretically design a 'minimal expression cassette' and a promoter-upstream 'activation module.' The 'minimal expression cassette' was sufficient to express the gusA reporter gene in transient transformation of tobacco leaf. The context on the 3′ side of the initiator codon, conserved in a majority of the highly expressible genes, gave approximately a ninefold increase in the expression of β-glucuro- nidase. The artificially designed, upstream 'activation module' enhanced gusA expression further by about 30-fold in transiently transformed tobacco leaves. A 450-bp-long complete expression cassette, containing both the 'minimal expression cassette'and the 'activation module' expressed gusA at a high level in cotton leaves, potato tubers and cabbage stem also. In stably transformed tobacco plants, the 'complete expression cassette' expressed gusA at levels higher than the native CaMV 35S promoter. Histological studies established that the 'complete expression cassette' was expressed at a high level in different cell types in the roots, leaves, vascular tissues and flower parts of the transgenic tobacco plants. The results substantiate the functional validity of the features identified by us and demonstrate the potential of computational biology in designing artificial expression cassettes for applications in biotechnology.

La Casa Della Pasta
Chefs at La Casa Della Pasta embellish pastas, gnocchi, and desserts made in-house with handfuls of imported Italian ingredients, including eggplant and mozzarella. As owner Enrique Tangari told the Tampa Bay Times in 2011, "I import everything, flour, water, tomatoes, cheeses … to make any kind of pasta dish you want, on the menu or not." His commitment to imported flavor also extends to the restaurant's drink menu, which features wines made from such traditional Italian varietals as pinot grigio, sangiovese, and nebbiolo, as well as beers with suspiciously small amounts of fermented grape juice.

Which embed method is best for WordPress.org hosted website?Asked by melodicsounds on February 19, 2015 at 02:11 AM
Hi I have a wordpress.org website hosted in hostgator servers... I also have a themify.me theme and I was wondering which is the best embed to assure 100% of display time? some of my users are saying that some times, my form not displaying they need to refresh the page or change webrowser... I have right now embbed it with Iframe but should I use the Embed with script ? or which should be the best for me? www.melodic-sounds.com is my website
JotForm Support
The iFrame embed method should work best if there's a conflict in the page that is preventing the form not to load properly.
We also have a WordPress plugin, try it. We have two:
You can try our first plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/embed-form/.
We also have the oEmbed: https://wordpress.org/plugins/jotform-oembed.
Thank you and I hope these options works for you.

In his most scathing and blistering attack, Jana Sena Party president Pawan Kalyan blasted his arch rival-TRS chief K. Chandrasekhar Rao. While campaigning for BJP-TDP in Torrur of Warangal, Pawan has made sensational comments.
Sharply reacting to KCR's previous criticism on Narendra Modi, fuming Pawan Kalyan lashed out, "KCR, I don't mind if you jibe at me. But don't dare to take on PM-to-be. Narendra Modi is going to be the first Backward Caste PM of India. He could only bring development to this country. KCR's divisive, derogatory comments are threat to India's national unity. It is his daily routine to indulge in verbal spat. He can't develop Telangana."
Pawan didn't stop there. Pawan dared KCR and lambasted, "I won't spare if you attack Modi. I'll tear your skin. I'm warning you not to repeat this again." Pawan added that he love Telangana and its people. He said that he has not come for himself but came for people and their better living. Pawan made it clear that he has no fear.
On whole, Pawan's speech has shocked one and all including senior TDP leaders like Errabelli Dayakar Rao, Manda Krishna Madiga and several BJP leaders who shared the dais. Of course, they're quite happy with Pawan's rocking speech.

Canberra may have one eye on next season but the Capitals remain determined to send club champions Marianna Tolo and Carly Wilson out on a winning note.
Canberra's playoff hopes ended with a shock loss to Adelaide on Thursday and their season officially draws to a close in Townsville on Saturday night.
Europe-bound Tolo said the team were disappointed not to be heading north with a finals spot on the line, but backed the Capitals to return to winning ways.
"To finish on a positive note would be massive for us and I think everyone will be giving it their best and with no pressure I think we'll play our hearts out," Tolo said.
"With Carly retiring... she's had such a great career and is an icon of the game, it's the end of the era for the Caps so I just want finish with a win for her."
Coach Paul Goriss agreed the focus was to send Wilson out a winner and praised Tolo for spearheading a Capitals campaign that surprised many as they pushed for a finals berth all season.
"She's been a huge part of our team, it doesn't take Einstein to see everything is based around Tolo offensively and she's such a good presence defensively," Goriss said.
"She's the key factor in us being as successful as we were this season... she's a great player and has been great for us all season and we wouldn't have been fighting for top four spot without her.
"You can't put a value on what she brings both on and off the court. Combining her playing stats and her as a person you really can't measure just how good she is for the program."
Keely Froling is the only contracted player for next season and while the recruiting process has begun Goriss described Tolo as irreplaceable, but is confident her absence is only temporary.
"I don't think there's another Tolo running around out there, not just her size and ability, she's a good person who wants to practice hard and does all the right things by the team and the fans," he said.
"Those type of players aren't just hanging around everywhere... but we have no doubt this isn't Tolo's last game as a Capital, she'll be back whether it's in one season or two, we just want to do the right thing by her."
The Opals guard left the door wide open for a return to the capital and despite missing the playoffs said it had been one of the most enjoyable seasons of her career.
"I know how much everyone has enjoyed this season, we've created a really good culture, people have enjoyed playing here and the challenge now is to keep that going into next season," Tolo said.
"After the Bendigo win some of the girls said that was best game they've ever been apart of with the crowd getting so involved.
"When we're enjoying it we're not afraid to ride the wave and everyone contributed this season, nobody did their own thing, it was a real team effort.
"I love Canberra and all my experiences that I've had here so I'll definitely look to come back after I'm done playing in Europe."
Saturday: Canberra Capitals v Townsville Fire at Townsville Stadium, 8pm.
