Yodeling Superstar to Host Oktoberfest Northwest
October 1, 2015 by Maddie Rish
Manuela Horn Oktoberfest Northwest
here is the link to the website www.everfest.com
Some call her the Austrian Amazon; some know her as the Queen of Oktoberfest. Whatever the nickname, one thing remains true – Manuela Horn is an acting, dancing, yodeling, and comedic force of nature.
Oktoberfest NW Manuela Horn
After rising to fame through her 2009 appearance in America's Got Talent, this 6'2 cabaret star began emceeing and headlining some of the rowdiest Oktoberfest celebrations nationwide. On October 9-11, she's hosting the 11th Annual Oktoberfest Northwest at the Washington State Fair Events Center, where she and her Oktoberlesques will wow the crowd with yodeling interpretations of top hits. Everfest had a chance to ask the Austrian legend some questions about how she came to be such a staple in the Oktoberfest world. Check it out!
Where did you learn to yodel?
My father taught me when I was 12 years old. Since we are from Austria and lived in Germany, we took every chance to go home and be with our family. Back in the day there were no tunnels and we had to drive up the mountains and down the mountains to get home. I will never forget the day I learned to yodel because I was trapped in a 14-hour trip and I was so bored! So my dad decided to use that time to teach me to yodel. The 'yodel' bug bit me and ever since then I have enjoyed doing it!
How did you come to be the Queen of Oktoberfest?
It all started five years ago when I answered a Craigslist ad, that said Oktoberfest Northwest was looking for a swing girl. That sounded like fun to me and I introduced myself and got the job! Very fast, I realized that I found my performing home and offered to host and sing at Oktoberfest Northwest as well. We were a match made in heaven and I was hired to headline the next year. The word got around that my Oktoberfest Northwest show was unique, interactive and super fun! This led to opportunities to share my show at other Oktoberfest related events. People then started giving me the title and calling me the "Oktoberfest Queen". When you come to my show, you will see me yodel to Top 40 Hits and hear funny new versions of hits that I rewrote into drinking party songs. For example, 'Walking on Sunshine' is 'Sipping on Beer Foam', 'I Wanna Hold Your Hand' from The Beatles is 'I Wanna Drink Your Beer', 'Poker Face' is 'Polka Phase' and so on….I guess you could also call me the "Weird Al Yankovic" of Oktoberfest!
What's your favorite part about hosting Oktoberfest Northwest?
Everybody shows up with a smile on their face at Oktoberfest Northwest and is ready to have a good time. It is a wonderful community, who knows to let loose and have some fun. Now that we have been part of Oktoberfest Northwest for a while, it feels like going to a family reunion. I know many faces and I catch up with them while eating a good brat and enjoying some good German beer!
What has been the most memorable performance experience of your professional career thus far?
I would say my "America's Got Talent" appearance in 2009. I made David Hasselhoff drool and made it to the semi-finals. That was a wild roller coaster ride and something to be told to my grandkids one day.
So, what's the Queen of Oktoberfest's beer of choice?
I LOOOOOVE the Paulaner Oktoberfest beer! Other than that, I honestly enjoy any German Lager!

Marlowe Blog: Nuggets a mystery without two big pieces
Evaluating Denver's performance difficult without Gallinari, McGee
Thirty games into the 2013-14 NBA season, the Denver Nuggets are a mystery.
Are they a playoff team, as good as their earlier seven-game win streak would imply? Or are they playoff pretenders, as evidenced by their recent seven-game losing streak?
I would suggest we won't really know until the Nuggets are at full strength.
The elephants in the Mile High room are Danilo Gallinari and JaVale McGee – two legit NBA starters who have both been out virtually all season. Gallo continues to rehab from surgery on his ACL, while JaVale is recovering from a stress fracture in his leg.
I think it's good to remember how important these two players are to Denver's success.
Let's start with Gallinari, who was in the midst of a terrific season when he went down with his injury last April.
He scores 16 points per game, is a good rebounder and a terrific playmaker. I believe Gallo's ability to make other players better has always been overlooked by many. He is also a solid defender (George Karl thought he was the Nugs' best) who took on the likes of Carmelo Anthony and Kobe Bryant in prior seasons.
Also, Gallo shoots better than 37 percent from downtown and 80 percent from the free throw line. Can you say molto bene?
Finally, he has the kind of swagger that the Nuggets need so desperately. Gallinari is very good, and he knows it. In the NBA, that's a very valuable commodity.
Now, let chat about JaVale McGee.
At his best, JVM is a running, jumping, slam-dunking, shot-blocking machine.
Just go back two years to the NBA Playoffs against the Lakers' Andrew Bynum and Pau Gasol. McGee was one of the big reasons the Nuggets gave Los Angeles all it could handle.
Yes, JaVale did get off to a slow start this season, but so did the rest of the Nuggets. Also, keep in mind—McGee was playing with a LEG FRACTURE!
So let's give him a break (pun intended), and see what he can do once he is completely healthy AND has time to adapt to Coach Brian Shaw's system.
Not many teams in the NBA could survive the absence of two starters for 30 games or more. The Nuggets have.
The New Year is upon us. Let's hope "The Rooster" and "Pierre" are not far behind.
Chris Marlowe is in his 10th year as the play-by-play voice for the Nuggets on Altitude. He is a longtime broadcaster who also served as the captain of the gold media-winning U.S. Olympic volleyball team in 1984.

In the body the Fire Element is aligned with the organ-meridian networks of heart, pericardium, small intestine and san jiao [three heater]. As we move into Summer the energy of these systems is stimulated and if any aspect of them is out of balance, it is likely that you will experience a variety of physical and emotional symptoms. The Fire Element is the only Element within that has four meridian networks aligned with it. Each of the other Elements has only two. Thus it is vital that your Fire Element's balance is maintained because it affects so many aspects of your life.
So how does this manifest within?
Naturally, Fire Element is heat and warmth. This is a dry heat as opposed to Earth Element's moist heat. Fire Element is all things like fire - dazzling, trembling, exciting, all embracing, all consuming. It is capable of creating and destroying, yet out of the destruction the ashes go to fertilise the Earth.
All the Fire Element meridians [pathways of Qi-energy flow in the body] are on the arms, chest, shoulders, neck and side of head affecting ears and eyes. Since fire or heat rises, you can see how an imbalance of too much fire can cause problems in the head and neck areas. Understanding the Elemental Archetypes helps you to help yourself.
If you are a hot person - get hot easily, don't like hot weather, have hot flushes, red face, pimples, hot headache, fly off the handle easily, "driven" personality, always rushing around - then keeping cool is important. Look at what you eat and drink - coffee, alcohol, chocolate, chilli, garlic, onions, curries, processed foods, sugar - all generate heat. This in turn consumes your coolant - water - so it can't control the internal fire that's burning. Like the bush fires we have seen here recently, they burn out of control when there is little or no water. Depending on what part of your body they happen to be affecting, you will experience dis-ease.
Always drink plenty of water. Just water, not juice or tea or anything else. Water is the only substance to cross the brain's cell barrier. With so many Fire Element meridians going to the head and the fact that in Chinese medicine, the mind is controlled by Heart Energy, you can see how important pure water is to maintaining the status of the brain of "Clear Palace". If the brain does not get enough water to it [and it is smoothen like 90% water] you can't think properly or clearly or you get headaches, usually wake with them and they are dull - just there!
Water balances and controls Fire in the bush, and it's the same in the body, so make sure you get plenty of it! A slice of fresh lemon is the only additive that doesn't change the ability of water to cross into the brain cells.
Summer is Fire Energy
The enjoyment of summer is Fire Element's joy. However, if you don't like summer or hot weather it usually means your own fire is off balance. It is natural in summer to be active, stay up late, eat light, spend time at the beach or in or near water, be outside. These all please the Fire Element because they express it's natural state.
If being too hot is unpleasant for you, go out early in the morning or later in the afternoon when the intense heat of the day has passed. In fact it is sensible to do this anyway in Australia as it gets extremely hot in the middle of the day.
Sunburn treatment
If you happen to get too much sun on your skin one of the best treatments I know of is fresh Aloe Vera, or if you don't have access to a plant you can use a commercial aloe gel. Aloe is a cooling herb in Chinese medicine, so what better way to cool the heat of sunburn [or any burn] than to apply it to the skin directly.
Another good remedy is to take the Australian Bush Flower Essence, Solaris, for too much heat.
Fire Element and Heart Energy
The Taoists, sages of ancient China, saw the Heart as the supreme ruler of a kingdom [the body]. Although they never dissected the body to find out it's physical contents, they understood it's energies so well that all the major organs in the body were given titles according to their functions:
· Heart is
The Emperor/Empress;
Each of these Officials rule over a domain covering various parts of the rest of the physical body, each aligned according to the associated functions of that "department". These Newsletters give you an overview of the domain covered by each of the Officials aligned with each Element/Season.
Back to the Heart
Heart as Emperor/Empress rules through insight and understanding in order to prevent inertia and psychic chaos. It is the home of the Shen [Spirit]. Shen resides within the warmth of the Fire Element, the body's True Fire. If the Emperor/Empress is weak, the kingdom turns to chaos. Nothing gets done. We lose contact with the Universal Life Force and therefore become lost in life. We forget who we are, where we are or why we are here.
In many ancient cultures, the supreme ruler was seen as a direct connection for the community with the Divine, much like the Dali Lama is to the Tibetans, or the Emperor was to the Japanese and the King was to the Nepalese. The latter two were even believed to be direct reincarnations of their respective "god". The Taoists realised that we each have our own direct connection with the Divine, and that it was through our heart.
When Heart Energy is balanced we naturally experience and express unconditional love, joy, honour, sincerity, creativity, enthusiasm, passion. Our Spirit is radiant and light ~ this is the way of all enlightened beings.
When Heart Energy is not balanced, or is weak, too hot or too cold we will experience conditional love, irritation, impatience, intolerance, we have dislikes about anything, we hate, are cruel, violent. Our Spirit is heavy and dark ~ this is our shadow.
Understanding Fire Element and Heart Energy helps to recognise some aspects of the shadow, which is the first step to en-lightening yourself.
you can see there is much more to Heart Energy than just the pump we
know of as the heart! Whilst it is important to keep your physical heart
healthy and your veins and blood in good order, it is just as important
to regulate and maintain your Fire Element so that your heart is not
Small Intestine, Pericardium and San Jiao
Fire Element instability can also affect these other associated energetic systems. Small Intestine Energy is the partner of Heart Energy while Pericardium is Heart's protector. They both therefore are easily affected by imbalances in Heart Energy.
Common signs of Small Intestine disharmony are abdominal pain, intestinal rumblings, diarrhea or constipation, inappropriate assimilation.
Signs of Pericardium disharmony are heart pains, palpitations, anguish, excessive dreaming, poor sleep. Pericardium also protects the feelings and emotions of the Heart, it shuts down when we are emotionally hurt in love. This can cut off the Fire Element from the Heart and this is not good for health.
San Jian is a most interesting system as it has no organ association but harmonises all the organs. It affects the endocrine system and it masters the energy of the chakras - allowing for even movement and distribution of energy within the body. Signs of disharmony include fluid retention, constipation, hot head and cold feet, disconnected with environment.
Laughter is Fire Element's best medicine
Next to water, laughter is the best thing for all Fire Element energies! Chinese medicine says that laughter is the sound of harmony from the Fire Element. The ability to have a good laugh indicates balance and brings balance [that is laughing for joy, not laughing at others]. Balanced Fire Element's don't laugh at people, rather they laugh with them.
Red and Pink are Fire Element colours
All things red and pink benefit the Fire Element. If you need to increase your Fire Energy wearing these colours is good, however, if you are already hot then it is best to reduce the amount of these colours and maybe wear blues to moderate the fire within. Also eating red and pink foods is good for the Fire Element systems.
Fire Element expresses itself via the Heart, and love is it's language. Being aligned with the Heart Chakra, it has the capacity to channel Divine Love. In fact, this is it's natural desire. As mentioned above, love, joy and happiness are the natural expressions of Fire Element energy.
When your Fire Element is balanced, you are a person with an enthusiastic joy for life. You are creative with a great passion for expressing your creativity. You are honest and sincere and have a heart of gold. You love life and you love yourself. Therefore, you have loving relationships and are unafraid to open your heart.

URBAN Ophthalmic Glasses
These sunglasses are the perfect accessory on the beach, on the way to the office or in the city. There is only one slight drawback: all the envious looks you will attract. The DG2140 is available in the Edel-Optics online shop in other styles from Dolce & Gabbana collections 2016 and 2017.
With no frills and state-of-the-art materials and craftsmanship, these men's glasses stand for stylish design and self-confidence. Full rim frames completely enclose the lenses within the frame. For a convinced eyeglass wearer, any other frame style is ruled out, with very few exceptions. Rectangular models are particularly suitable for round and oval faces. The rectangular shape also builds a bridge to corners and edges from an image aspect. The noble metal frame allows for filigree lines and creates an extraordinary lightness in appearance. In addition, metal eyeglasses are virtually indestructible - strong, flexible and corrosion resistant. Grey suits every style and every outfit. It looks good with almost every skin tone and is more unobtrusive than black. Eyewear in grey is your perfect everyday companion. Grey lenses are a classic in sunglasses. Their high degree of neutrality with regard to the field of view, makes them particularly suitable for everyday use. This brand of sunglasses, of course, also provides your eyes with optimum UV400 protection. Our polarizing or "polarisation" lenses are far superior to normal lenses. This special technology minimizes irritating light reflections. Your eyesight is razor sharp. Whether you are driving or are out and about, the colours are more intensive, and your degree of safety is increased.
In our online shop we have consistently low prices. You won't get DG2140 at such a low price, not even in the sale.

Home » Business » Digital Transformation » Are 2-in-1s Here to Stay?
In today's digitising society, technology is enabling computer hardware to become ever more powerful and compact.
As gadgetry has shrunk, our time and ability to do more with it has gone off the charts; we can do our banking and shopping on the way to work, and still have time to squeeze in a half hour of Netflix before the train pulls in.
The 2-in-1 is a cutting edge manifestation of an ethos that has informed processes of efficiency since the dawn of time. One tool to take care of a multiplicity of jobs, saving the user time, money, space and energy.
The hybrid laptop can certainly achieve all this, so it's understandable that this all-in-one IT hub is quickly gaining popularity among those who want to work and play anytime, anywhere.
Laptops are still the best-sellers, but a screen fixed to a keyboard is a very pedestrian 90s beast in comparison with the flexibility users want in the 21st century. Today our lives are geared towards versatility, and 2-in-1s are the perfect complement.
A hybrid can come in one of two forms. Convertible 2-in-1s enable the laptop's keyboard to fully hinge through 360 degrees and nestle beneath the touchscreen, thereby creating a tablet environment.
For detachable 2-in-1s, the tablet experience is authenticated, as the keyboard can be fully unclipped from the touchscreen. Both formats usually accommodate a half-way folding stage, whereby the keyboard creates the other side of a tent, and acts as a stand for the screen.
These simple innovations enable an array of far reaching benefits to flourish, whether convertible or detachable units are in use. Most pertinently is the reduction in the number of gadgets in a user's life: one fewer device to buy, keep safe, protect, charge and worry about.
Then the versatility hits home. Many people use a smartphone out and about, a tablet for lounge use and a laptop for work, but these three formats can morph and meld with a 2-in-1, which really trims the digi-fat from day-to-day life in a way that saves you money.
Travelling is where you really benefit from the flexibility attribute. Taking a flight is a notoriously time-consuming affair, but it can become a productive and entertaining experience with a 2-in-1; take care of a few work tasks with ease in the departure lounge, before using your tray-table to watch a movie when you're in the sky.
The Dell Inspiron 3000 11.6" Touchscreen (£209.00) in electric blue is a wonderful entry level 2-in-1 for those looking for on-the-go office and entertainment opportunities. If it's top level office work that offers ultra-lightweight portability, models in the Dell Latitude range (£600 +) at the other end of the market boast full detachability.
The gulf in prices illustrates the accessibility of 2-in-1s, and just how much money can be saved now that the technology is through early iterations. These are prices that will see users paying only fractionally more than laptops of the same power and capability.
A true sign of the hybrids ubiquity and social acceptance is the fact that Windows 10 was built with 2-in-1s in mind. This makes transforming your unit between tablet and laptop modes a smooth and simple process, while universal apps work fine in either world.
This factor shines in comparison with Android and iOS which can run into difficulty when multitasking and interfacing file systems that play fine on a smartphone, only to fall a bit flat when switching between web page games.
We're in a touchscreen world now, but that doesn't mean we want to compromise on the dextrous functionality that a keyboard grants. Today's 2-in-1s are the perfect merging of these two requirements.
Unless you're a hard-core gamer, these great pieces of kit are well worth looking at as an investment that will take your mobile computing needs into a fully flexible future.

How Considerably Does It Cost To Paint A Car
Before we go any additional, let's be clear: the paint job that Instructables user Styluss applied to his old Chevy Beretta isn't at all the exact same as a experienced job. Kuehn says the typical cost he charges to absolutely paint a car is amongst $600 and $1,000, which he says is below the national typical. Whether or not we are speaking about the paintings in a museum or the paint on your car, painters are artists, and skill levels differ. In case a new paint job is essential, appoint a good physique repair agency that is knowledgeable in this field of function. Although not for everyone, if you uncover a custom paint job as well far outdoors the spending budget, a wrap is a excellent option.
In our final post, we discussed regardless of whether you need to get your car repainted , and now we would like to … Read More

What women have to say about penises and their sizes. Here you can see the conclusions of some research made.
Yes, penis size does matter, but not in the way that you may think.
After asking several hundred women over 18 years old, sizes, ethnicities, and sexual habits, 82% of these women answered that were happy with a penis that was big enough to satisfy them, which averaged at about 6 inches, that is just about the average penis size for men. Of course, there was a small percentage (9%) who wanted a penis that was larger than average (7 to 8 inches). Fewer women (2%) said that they preferred huge-sized penises (larger than 10 to 12 inches).
Penises much larger than average can cause some difficulties during sex. In fact, many women who dated men with abnormally larger penises complained that they weren't able to comfortably enjoy certain sexual positions, nor were they able to adequately give oral sex.
But… when asked whether length or girth was more important, most women opted for girth, as they claimed to enjoy the feeling of a thick penis against their vaginal walls rather than having an unusually long penis poking against their insides. The length has to be proportional to the width. And what would that be? I suppose that would be the average.
Other important things:
56% expect a penis to more or less match the complexion of the rest of a man's body.
23% expect a penis to feel very smooth.
21% weren't very happy about an abundance of veins.
So, if you're below average, you have two options:
– there are other ways in which to satisfy your woman, so explore your options;
– you can also try some methods to enlarge your penis…
The Myths of Penis Enlargement
Throughout the ages mankind has always been ready to make up for any lack of knowledge with a combination of intuition, deduction, observation and outright invention that is usually called myth. Myths are stories that are based to a certain degree on what men understood from the facts before them. Their purpose is to fill a gap either in knowledge or in morals.
A good example of a widespread myth that has no real basis and is meant to enforce a certain type of behavior is the old saying that masturbation makes men go blind. In fact a Swiss physician Samuel-Auguste Tissot said in 1760 that his studies proved that masturbation causes a perceptible reduction of strength, of memory and even of reason, blurred vision, all the nervous disorders, weakening of the sex organs disturbance of the appetite, headaches and a great number of other disorders. It goes without saying that most men living today know better than to believe that.
But grown men themselves are not spared the fear that myths are supposed to put into their souls. Another widespread myth claims that lack of sex over a longer period of time would certainly cause the penis or testicles to shrink. However, neither penis nor testicles size is in no way linked to the frequency of sex sessions or anything else of this kind.
Another all-time favorite is the series of myths linking penis size to that of another part of the body, usually the hands or feet. Again, there is no scientific evidence that penis size is related to that of any part of the body. Actually, studies conducted by experts found a weak correlation at most between the size of the penis and the size of a man's feet. This means that the rule is good for, probably, one man in a hundred.
Less known myths also have their fans. Some men think that drinking water can help enlarge the penis, which is not true. While other muscles in the body can grow in size with the help of extra oxygen and water delivered by supplements or pills, this is not the case with the penis. The sponge-like tissues called Corpora Cavernosa are not designed to hold blood or any other liquid permanently, but only as long as sexual stimulation occurs.
While penis enlargement exercises share some features with the regular body building techniques, adding water to gain size is not among them. Penis exercises work by forcing the cells that make up the penis tissues to grown in number, using the body's own mechanism of adapting to external pressure. The pace of the enlargement process can be increased with the help of penis enlargement pills that boost the flow of blood to the genital area and make sure production of testosterone by the body is at the right level.
The bottom line is, of course, that nobody should put any stock in myths. Most of them distort facts to achieve a certain end and should not be trusted. If you are not certain about the effect that some thing or other has on your penis size or sex life, then it's better to ask a professional, preferably a doctor. This way you'll find that many myths regarding the penis are just that: myths.

Dearly Beloved,
"And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" (John 8:32 NKJV).
The above quoted verse should indeed be a fact that will make many Christians free of any kind of bondage, but it is unfortunate that some Christians still knowingly or unknowingly keep themselves in bondage of fear based on falsehood of the devil and his cohorts. Interestingly, some of these Christians that knowingly keep themselves in this bondage think that they can use that to move closer to God! A conversation that ensued between one of my BBM contacts and me buttress this. The contact sent a broadcast message that I should not pick calls from a certain mobile line because some people are using the voice of people that pick calls from that line for rituals. The message was not new to me as I have received it times without number for over two years. My usual response to people that spread such baseless rumours is to ask this question: "Do you believe that someone can kill or use you for rituals by mere phone calls?" This particular person believes that no one can use him for rituals, but that he spread the falsehood because some people have no reason to be closer to God unless they are scared. My question then for him is: can falsehood and baseless rumour be used to promote the truth? Undoubtedly, NO!
Are you also in such bondage? Or are you in the habit of spreading baseless rumours probably to make people be closer to God or to warn and protect them from impending danger? You do not need to be! Hear some of the truths of the Bible:
"For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline" (2 Timothy 1:7 NIV).
"You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world" (1 John 4:4 NIV).
"The Lord is my light and my salvation — whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life — of whom shall I be afraid? When evil men advance against me to devour my flesh, when my enemies and my foes attack me, they will stumble and fall" (Psalm 27:1-2 NIV).
"I delight greatly in the Lord; my soul rejoices in my God. For he has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels" (Isaiah 61:10 NIV).
"What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?" (Romans 8:31 NIV).
These are the simple truth of words of God. They do not need any falsehood or fear to be known or promoted. Let the truth set you free indeed.
In His service,
Bayo Afolaranmi (Pastor).
I still desire that as many as my people as possible that are on BBM network join me there to have access to my daily BBM broadcasts. Invite my BB PIN:2B2AF3EE. You will be highly blessed you did! Thanks.--

Yes… chrismetcalf.net has gone corporate. Well not quite, but close. Given the fact that I've been running various websites for nearly 8 years without a single cent in funding, I've decided to start running some rather unobtrusive Google Adsense ads at the left-hand side of the page. I know that the decision to turn a site ad-supported is not usually met without controversy. I've just come to the conclusion that I'd like my blog to be at least self-supporting. All I really want to do is cover my hosting costs. I've got a perfectly good job and I don't plan on supporting myself off of blogging (I'm amazed anybody can). So, if you've got opinions, feel free to chime in in the comments.

Original Research
Published on 14 Aug 2016

Fatty acid synthase (FASN, UniProt ID: P49327) is a multienzyme dimer complex that plays a critical role in lipogenesis. Consequently, this lipogenic enzyme has gained tremendous biomedical importance. The role of FASN and its inhibition is being extensively researched in several clinical conditions, such as cancers, obesity, and diabetes. X-ray crystallographic structures of some of its domains, such as β-ketoacyl synthase, acetyl transacylase, malonyl transacylase, enoyl reductase, β-ketoacyl reductase, and thioesterase, (TE) are already reported. Here, we have attempted an in silico elucidation of the uncrystallized dehydratase (DH) catalytic domain of human FASN. This theoretical model for DH domain was predicted using comparative modeling methods. Different stand-alone tools and servers were used to validate and check the reliability of the predicted models, which suggested it to be a highly plausible model. The stereochemical analysis showed 92.0% residues in favorable region of Ramachandran plot. The initial physiological substrate β-hydroxybutyryl group was docked into active site of DH domain using Glide. The molecular dynamics simulations carried out for 20 ns in apo and holo states indicated the stability and accuracy of the predicted structure in solvated condition. The predicted model provided useful biochemical insights into the substrate-active site binding mechanisms. This model was then used for identifying potential FASN inhibitors using high-throughput virtual screening of the National Cancer Institute database of chemical ligands. The inhibitory efficacy of the top hit ligands was validated by performing molecular dynamics simulation for 20 ns, where in the ligand NSC71039 exhibited good enzyme inhibition characteristics and exhibited dose-dependent anticancer cytotoxicity in retinoblastoma cancer cells in vitro.

RockTape Kinesiology Tape for Athletes Reviews (2-Inch x 16.4-Feet)
[easyazon_cta add_to_cart="default" align="center" asin="B005SWSD68″ cloaking="default" height="28″ key="small-orange" localization="default" locale="US" nofollow="default" new_window="default" tag="ecobeautifu07-20″ width="120″]
The following article aims to outline all the details as well as the RockTape Kinesiology Tape for Athletes Reviews (2-Inch x 16.4-Feet) to provide our readers a run-down of everything there is to know about this innovative product and how to apply kinesiology tape.
RockTape Kinesiology Tape for Athletes (2-Inch x 16.4-Feet) is one of a series of active recovery tapes designed to enhance an athlete's performance and aid in the recovery of muscle and joint injuries. Rocktape Kinesiology Tape for Athletes differs from regular compression garments in that it can be used to either apply compression, promoting recovery, or decompress to relieve pain and reduce swelling.
Variety and Length of Use
The RockTape Kinesiology Tape for Athletes comes with 16.4 feet ultra-stretchy and water resistant two-inch wide tape. The tape comes in a variety of 41 different colors and patterns, letting you mix and match and make a bold statement as you perform in comfort. Instructions for proper use are printed right on the box. Each roll comes with enough tape for 10-20 applications, each of which can be worn for up to five days and should last through showers and swimming.
Applications and Ingredients
RockTape Kinesiology Tape for Athletes is composed of a high-grade cotton fabric which is reinforced with 6 percent nylon for added support. The adhesive is made of hypoallergenic acrylic.
The indications for the RockTape Kinesiology Tape for Athletes is extensive. It covers a wide range of injuries, including:
- Muscle spasms and cramps
- Joint and muscle pain
- Muscle strains and sprains
- Bruises and contusions
- Swelling and Edema
- Tendinitis
- Torn Cartilage
- Tennis and golfers elbow
- Runners, jumpers, and cyclists knee
- Groin and hamstring strains
- Plantar fasciitis
- And many more
The tape also aids in the recovery of other health conditions, including:
- Arthritis
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Lymphedema
- Degenerative disk disease
- Neck, back, and shoulder pain
- Recovery from surgeries
- And many more
To apply RockTape Kinesiology Tape properly, the skin should be cleaned and thoroughly dried prior to application. It is advised to apply the tape at least one hour before exercising, showering, or swimming. Once you apply the tape to the affected area, rub it briskly to ensure that the adhesive has been activated.
Negatives and Advisories
Reviews about the tape focus mainly on the stickiness and stretchiness of the tape. 90 percent of users love the tape and claim it sticks well through showers and swimming sessions, and even in steam rooms. Few customers have complained about the stickiness of the tape, and the reviews we read with complaints in this regard were not specific enough to conclude how long the tape actually stuck in these cases. It seems that on average, the RockTape Kinesiology Tape for Athletes sticks well for 1-2 days on athletes who perspire or swim. For use with arthritis or after a surgery, for less active people, the tape will probably last up to the five days as advertised.
In some customer reviews it was also mentioned that when they tried the tape with printed designs, it appeared to be less stretchy than the plain colored rolls, but we could not find enough information on this to prove it as a conclusive statement.
RockTape Kinesiology Tape for Athletes Reviews (2-Inch x 16.4-Feet) are unanimous: this is one of the best kinesiology tapes for athletes on the market today. This tape was designed to aid in the healing of a wide range of injuries, suitable for a wide variety of people; athletes and non-athletes alike. The super big selection of colors and patterns allows the user to have fun and be creative while they perform.
RockTape has a range of other products to check out and use in conjunction with their Kinesiology Tape for Athletes, including caps, guards, gloves, and topical pain creams.

Former Lab Personnel
Beth Crouchet, M.S. 2016
Beth examined factors responsible for modifying tree mortality during the 2011 Texas Drought, which killed 300 million trees. She censused 64 30m x 30m plots, mostly in Central Texas and found that rates of tree mortality depend on multiple factors, including heat exposure, local drought intensity, soil factors, topography and intraspecific stand density. She is currently preparing a manuscript for publication.
Yun-Pong Nie, Assistant Professor, Visiting Scholar (2015)
Nie is a full time researcher in the Institute of Subtropical Agriculture, Chinese Academy of Sciences. His research centers on the ecohydrology of soil-limited karst ecosystems, including characteristics of water storage in karst, the water use and adaptive strategies of native plant species, as well as their responses to climate change. To reveal the underlying mechanisms, he draws on tools from the fields of soil science, hydrology, ecophysiology, ecology, and stable isotope biogeochemistry. His research team conducts field research in karst regions of Subtropical China. He can be contacted by email at email@example.com
Li Rong, Professor, Visiting Scholar (2014)
Rong is a professor at Guizhou Normal University in the city of Guiyang, China. She is a plant ecologist interested in the water relations of tree species in the karst region of southwest China. She introduced the use of stable isotope ratios to distinguish the water sources of trees in the China karst. While she was visiting Texas State University, she collaborated on a study in the Mojave Desert, which asked how the water sources of shrubs changed along an elevation gradient and transition zone from creosotebush to blackbrush dominated communities.
Scott Havill, M.S. 2012
Scott conducted thesis research on the control of an invasive species by controlled burning. He published the results of his research project in Applied Vegetation Science under the title: "Fire effects on invasive and native warm-season grass species in a North American grassland at a time of extreme drought".
Lisa Jones, M.S. 2012
Lisa inducted a field experiment in the Mojave Desert of southern California investigating the seedling ecology of Coleogyne ramosissima (blackbrush), which forms one of the most threatened communities of this region. The goal of the study was to evaluate if restoration of this long-lived shrub can be enhanced by identifying and ameliorating recruitment limitations. Currently, Lisa is a crew leader for the Great Basin. Her research was published in Restoration Ecology under the title "Seedling Ecology and Restoration of Blackbrush(Coleogyne ramosissima) in the Mojave Desert,United States",
Heather Meckel
Heather examined the mechanisms behind the competitive success of the invasive grass Johnsongrass relative to other native C4 grasses of the southern prairies through a greenhouse experiment. The results of her study are currently in preparation for publication.
Kelly Kukowski, M.S. 2010
Kelly conducted an experiment in which she documented the drought responses of an oak-juniper woodland on the Edwards Plateau limestone karst to summer drought using Grainier sapflow sensors and stable isotope techniques. Her study is published in Oecologia under the title "Hydraulic responses to extreme drought conditions in three co-dominant tree species in shallow soil over bedrock".
Heather Dammeyer, M.S. 2010
Heather conducted a comparison of tree water relations between an intact woodland and an adjacent site that had been cleared of almost all juniper in the karst region of the Edwards Plateau, asking whether juniper removal increased water storage in the epikarst. Her study will soon be published in Hydrological Processes under the title "Effects of juniper removal and rainfall variation on tree transpiration in a semi-arid karst: Evidence of complex water storage dynamics".
Erin Ruckman, M.S. 2009
Erin experimentally compared the sensitivity of the exotic grass KR bluest em and the native grass little bluest em to summer fire and high temperature. She published two papers based on her research, one in Restoration Ecology, entitled "Effects of Phenology at Burn Time on Post-Fire Recovery in an Invasive C4 Grass" and another in Ecological Restoration with the title "Comparative Seed Heat Tolerances Among Native and Non-indigenous Invasive Grassland Species".

There's something totally magical about sitting in a packed auditorium shrouded by thousands of your favorite star's greatest fans. It's all music, lights, and revelry when the celebrity appears on the stage and the crowd roars with delight. Throughout the concert, the energy is high, and you wish the night could last forever.
Demanding schedules, pressure to perform, and constant scrutiny more accurately paints a picture of the flip side of being a celebrity. It's not surprising that superstardom comes with a high level of stress and exhaustion. Like many other superstars, Elvis Presley took drugs to help him cope with the arduous demands of being the King of Rock and Roll, before his health concerns led to his death in 1977.
What was drug addiction treatment like in the 1970's? Could today's addiction programs have saved his life?
The Pressure of Stardom and Its Price
From 1969 to 1977, Elvis' manager, "Colonel" Tom Parker, subjected Elvis to a grueling schedule of performing on stage every other day. If that was not exhausting enough, Elvis had a contract with RCA Records to record three albums a year. As Elvis exited the stage after a brilliant and satisfying encore, he barely had time to slump into a chair. Beyond the glitz, glam, and adoring fans, the stage hands were packing the bus for a road trip to the next city on tour.
Offstage, Elvis faced even more pressure. The tabloids created a relentless buzz of stories that were scathing or ludicrous or both. The music critics gave merciless reviews, and the paparazzi pursued him doggedly. Sheer exhaustion led Elvis to seek ways to cope with the stress of being "The King." He found his coping strategy in prescription drugs.
The Rise of Drug Experimentation During the 60's and 70's
The 60's and 70's s became the era of drug experimentation. LSD, opiates and heroin were the drugs of choice. While Elvis was sweeping fans off their feet with singable tunes and swooning ballads, other popular bands sang the truth of a new social phenomenon—street drugs. Jimi Hendrix made a hit with Purple Haze. In his song, Rainy Day Women, Bob Dylan sang, "But I would not feel so all alone, everybody must get stoned," to name a couple.
Prescription drug abuse was also on the rise during the 60's and 70's. If one pill made you feel good; more made you feel even better. Like Elvis, some people believed that any drugs that you could get from doctors couldn't possibly be harmful.
Whether the superstars of the 60's and 70's got their drugs from the dealer on the corner, or from their trusted physician, many of them fell into a rotating cycle of managing stress with euphoria-inducing pills, failing to learn that drug addiction is a disease that progressively gets worse.
Treatment Options for Drug Addiction During the 60's and 70's
Into the 1970's, drug addiction grabbed onto many of the social drug experimenters and held on tightly. With the death toll of street-drug users rising, drug addiction facilities sprang up to treat people who were addicted to the most popular street drugs—opiates and heroin.
During that time, people didn't equate prescription drug abuse with street drug abuse, so there were paltry few options available for people who got hooked on prescription medications—people like Elvis.
As Elvis rose to stardom, he began to take "uppers" to get himself going, and "downers" after performances to help him relax and sleep. He became addicted by the early 1970's. His autopsy showed ten different drugs in his body at the time of his death.
Fame and fortune helped Elvis to stay addicted. Over time, he became something of a master at manipulating the medical community so he could support his habit. When doctors in his hometown of Memphis turned him down for prescription drugs, he turned to doctors in Las Vegas, Palm Springs, or Los Angeles. When the drugs proved more difficult to get, he resorted to toting around a copy of The Physician's Desk Reference, an encyclopedia of legal drugs and their uses. The manual guided him toward what symptoms he needed to have, to get certain prescription drugs.
Several times during the 1970's, Elvis entered the hospital for detoxification. While doctors helped rid Elvis' body from overdoses of prescription drugs, they missed the opportunity to treat the addictive habits that led to a relapse.
Would Today's Drug Treatment Options Have Kept Elvis Alive?
It's impossible to know for certain if Elvis would be alive today if he'd received appropriate treatment for his drug addiction. What is certain, is that there are more drug treatment programs and more types of drug treatment options available now, than there were during his lifetime. We now recognize prescription drug addiction as a progressive disease, in which people need targeted treatment.
Today, drug addicts can choose from a range of treatment options including drug treatment centers, hospital programs, support groups, accountability programs, counseling, and more. Today's society places greater awareness on the dangers of drug use. Schools educate youth on the dangers of drug addiction. Communities help with the offer referrals for drug treatment through:
- Physicians
- Clinics
- Churches
- Shelters
- Schools
- Law enforcement
Priscilla Presley's Perspective on Drug Treatment
Elvis' ex-wife, Priscilla Presley, is an actress, best-selling author, producer and entrepreneur. Since Elvis' death, she became an advocate for drug-free living. Priscilla, is also a noted Scientologist, a controversial entity that calls itself a religion. Scientology is closely linked to a drug treatment center called Narconon, which has also had its share of controversy. At the second anniversary of Narconon, Priscilla Presley publicly stated that she believed a program like Narconon, would have cured Elvis. She believes that the center's hope-centered focus would have drawn Elvis to participate in their treatment.
Lisa Marie Presley's Drug Addiction
Elvis's only child, Lisa Marie Presley, has also had problems with drug addiction and alcoholism. Like her father, her drug of choice is prescription pain killers. Unlike her father, Lisa Marie does not disguise her problems with substance abuse and openly seeks treatment when she needs it. In 2016, she checked into a Treatment Center in Los Angeles. The facility was a private center that has no connections to Scientology. The facility in Los Angeles was a 12 step facility similar to Advanced Health and Education (https://www.advhealth.com) in Eatontown New Jersey. Advanced Health uses an evidence-based approach and surely would have been beneficial to Elvis if he'd chosen to go and would have been available when he needed help.
Elvis' voice was, and still is, unmistakable. If that wasn't enough on its own, he was tall, dark and undeniably handsome. He'll be forever known as the first performer that Ed Sullivan insisted be filmed from the waist up, to avoid controversy over publicizing his gyrating hips. Elvis was what we would call today, "the total package."
With such golden talent, if he were still alive, the demands of his career wouldn't have gone away. Perhaps he would have continued to seek out drugs from physicians, or street dealers if that failed, to help him deal with the stress and exhaustion that accompanies being the King of Rock and Roll. What is different today is that if he went to the hospital for detoxification, they would have linked him to resources to help him deal with his addiction. If not from the hospital, he may have found drug treatment options from a church, a clinic, the police, or a trusted family member or friend.
Today, he would have a better chance of finding treatment for his addiction that worked. Being free from drugs may have allowed him the clarity of mind to take charge of his own schedule, and find some balance between his personal life and the adoration of his enormous fan base. If Elvis were alive today, we could reasonably expect that his addiction would have left the building.

By Kathy Orton
Washington Post Staff Writer
Sunday, September 19, 2010; D2
Gloria Blair and Desiree Garcia have different motivations for running Sunday's Woodrow Wilson Bridge Half Marathon. Blair is doing it for the experience. Garcia is using it as part of her training program for a marathon.
Though they seemingly have nothing in common, Blair and Garcia represent two growing trends in road racing: More runners are competing in half-marathons than ever before and more of those runners are women.
According to a report by Running USA, since 2003, the half-marathon has been the fastest growing road race distance in the United States. The number of half-marathon finishers has gone from 482,000 in 2000 to 1,113,000 in 2009. Twenty of the 30 largest U.S. half-marathons began or were re-branded less than 10 years ago.
Beginning in 2005, the number of women in these races has overtaken men. Half-marathons have the largest percentage of female runners (57 percent) of any road race.
"I think it's pretty clear why it's so attractive," said Mary Wittenberg, a 1987 Marine Corps Marathon winner who is president of New York Road Runners, which puts on eight half-marathons. "It's sized just right; it's not too short and its not too long, it's right in the middle; it's something that is aspirational in nature for the newer runner, it's a big deal to run 13.1 [miles]; and it's a great training race and distance for marathoners. It's perfectly suited for a wider variety of people than just a marathon."
For many runners, the 13.1 miles is also a much safer distance, according to Dave Watt, executive director of the American Running Association.
"A lot of us in the industry on the medical side have been saying ever since the new-age marathoner came in, which were new people who were not committed longtime runners . . . we've been saying all along, try a half or something like that," he said.
From a race director's standpoint, the half-marathon is an easier race to stage. It can also offer sponsors just as much bang for the buck. The inaugural Woodrow Wilson Bridge Half Marathon, which sold out its 4,000 spots, is the second half-marathon in the Washington area this month. The fifth annual Parks Half Marathon took place in Montgomery County last week.
For Blair, a 36-year-old from Oxon Hill, the impetus for running the Woodrow Wilson Bridge Half Marathon came after she got off her treadmill and took her running outside last year. Because she lives near the bridge, she often runs across it on weekends.
"When I realized I was already doing eight to nine miles on the weekend, what's a couple more miles?" she said. "I like challenging myself, I really do. . . . I call it my bucket list."
The half-marathon will be only her second competitive race. Two weeks ago, she ran a 5K in Arlington. "It's an unspeakable joy when you accomplish something like that," she said.
But her newfound joy hasn't led her to consider running a full marathon. "I don't know, 26 miles is a lot," she said. "I think I'm happy with 13."
Garcia also took up running recently. Prompted by the birth of her second son, the 29-year-old from Haymarket made a new year's resolution to run a marathon in a year.
"It was something I wanted to do," she said. "Something to show my kids that you always push yourself and give yourself new challenges."
Garcia found a training program online and used her friends as resources to prepare for the race. She also discovered additional motivation from the book "Run Like a Mother."
"It's been very helpful to me," she said. "Before a long run, I always read a couple chapters, even though I've read the book cover to cover. I read a few chapters just to get me geared up for a long run, encourage me."
Like Blair, Garcia's only road race experience was a 5K.
"I've never been a runner," she said. "I didn't even know when I could consider myself a runner, or if I can even now. . . . Once I cross that finish line [Sunday], I'll really feel like a runner, and I think it's going to be pretty emotional, too. I'm excited."
Indications are she isn't the only one. Blair, Garcia and other women like them are writing what appears to be another chapter of the running boom.
