Effects of television advertising on children: with special reference to pakistani urban children
The purpose of study is to deliberate upon the impacts of television advertising on children & to identify those critical impacts which lead to behavioral and eating disorder in children. Impacts of TV advertising were identified as unnecessary purchasing, low nutritional food and materialism. A questionnaire using five point likert scale was administered to 425 parents of children aged between 9-14 years, and studying in schools. Samples were drawn through convenience sampling approach from four cities of Pakistan namely Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Bahawalpur & Multan. Data were analyzed by using SPSS software. Pearson correlation was used to measure the relationships of the variables on one-to-one basis indicating the most correlated variable was Unnecessary Purchasing which had Pearson correlation value of 0.312 and significance value of 0.000. It was followed by a Materialism which had Pearson correlation value of 0.260 and significance value of 0.000. Then comes Low Nutritional Food being Pearson correlation value of 0.258 and significance value of 0.000. Testing of hypothesis found that television advertising increases the consumption of food that is unhealthy, having low nutritional values and high in Sugar, Fat and Salt (SFS) in children with F=30.146 & P=0.000. Subsequently, it was found that Television advertising leads to increase in unnecessary purchasing in children with F= 45.747 & P=0.000 and materialism in children with F=30.545 & P=0.000. So, it is summed up that TV advertising is affecting children by increasing their food consumption pattern, preference for low-nutrient, high in sugar, fat & salt (SFS) foods and beverages, change in attitude that is aggressive and violent in nature and inclination towards unnecessary purchasing.

Curse of the Pharaohs : second vol in series Paperback
by Elizabeth Peters
Part of the Amelia Peabody series
Join our plucky Victorian Egyptologist , together with her devastatingly handsome and brilliant husband Radcliffe, in another exciting escapadeWhen Lady Baskerville's husband Sir Henry dies after discovering what may have been an undisturbed royal tomb in Luxor, she appeals to eminent archaeologist Radcliffe Emerson and his wife Amelia to take over the excavation.
Amid rumours of a curse haunting all those involved with the dig, the intrepid couple proceeds to Egypt, where they begin to suspect that Sir Henry did not die a natural death, and they are confident that the accidents that plague the dig are caused by a sinister human element, not a pharoah's curse

Review by riverwillow
Set some five years after the events of "Crocodile on the Sandbank" Amelia and Emerson are now happily married, have settled in the Kent countryside and are doting parents to the tyrannically charming Ramses. The sudden death of Lord Baskerville the day after he opens up a tomb in Luxor, which is closely followed by the disappearance of his assistant, Alan Armadale (I love the literary references here) fills the press with rumours of a 'Curse of the Pharaohs. So Emerson and Amelia travel to Luxor determined to excavate the tomb, discover why Baskerville died and in the process dispel the myth of the curse. Along the way there are some hilarious encounters and some wonderfully funny and witty asides from Amelia. Its really nice to see that marriage and motherhood haven't diminished Amelia's sense of humour or her ability to wield a parasol. Superb.
Review by LARA335
Even better than the first novel in the series. Full-steam-ahead Peabody and her gruff husband Emerson - who I imagine as a bluff Bill Travers or young Peter O'Toole. The series has been described elsewhere as a Victorian Scooby-Do, which I think sums it up, plus you get an Egyptian tomb excavated, and the identity of the serial killer keeps you entertainingly guessing.
Review by kaulsu
I enjoyed the book, but I'm not quite sure why. The dig was not remarkable. There were so many characters, it was difficult to keep the "who's who" list up-to-date. Even the corpses began to pile up! Yet, I like Peabody and Emerson--and I look forward to the next installment when the precocious Ramses will join the quest.

Explore the most popular trails near Cloverdale with hand-curated trail maps and driving directions as well as detailed reviews and photos from hikers, campers and nature lovers like you.
great trail, and 3 other off trails, you must take. so beautiful, very narrow and steep at points, but very doable for all levels.
Loop trail just off of a tract housing development. Heading right off of the trailhead takes you on to a mostly flat, unpaved fire road that soon narrows into a proper hiking trail. This soon splits and climbs a long, steep hill. Eventually the trail ends in a clearing at a private property boundary that yields a view of the surrounding hills, and a slight view of Cloverdale.
To complete the loop, you then need to double back about 1/8 of a mile to a steep right turn down the hillside. (You will see wooden steps.) Most of the rest of the trail is hilly undulations on a narrow, slippery trail. There are a few spots that afford a nice view of Cloverdale and the rest of the valley. The trail eventually tees into another trail. Turn left and you will shortly run into a paved fire road. This is a steep downhill to the trailhead.
For what it is, and how convenient it is to Cloverdale, it's nice. For its length, definitely on the strenuous side of moderate.

text: Ok, I cannot figure out how to edit trainer backsprites in pokemon platinum at all. Information and tools are scattered everywhere, and almost everything I've used doesn't work properly. All I want to do is change the player backsprite, that's all, but after like 4 hours of googling and a bunch of annoying tools that don't work (or are for every game but the one im editing) I can't take it anymore. Asking here is my last resort, I give up if nobody replies. I know where the player's backsprites are stored, even the pokeball throwing part of the animation, and I have everything extracted. I just need to find a way to edit the RGCN files. I cannot get Crystal Tile 2 to display anything but a jumbled mess (yes ive messed with all the tile options). PokeDSPicPlatinum allows importing of edited sprites, but it does not show all of the required sprites correctly. I also cannot find the correct size of the image in any program, its always different. I also have a million tools that can view the sprites perfectly fine (kinda), like console tool, but cannot import an edited sprite, and the size\way it displays is not correct. The tutorial to edit pokemon black\white sprites did not work, crystal tile refused to display the image correctly. Please, for the love of god, how the hell do you edit trainer backsprites for pokemon platinum?

I recently had laproscopic surgery on a hernia and I am currently taking docusate and i have had a bowel movement but my belly seems to be still hard
How long does Docusate medicine take to take affect?

Responses (1)
If you have already had a bowel motion it means that the ducosate has started working (I don't know how long ago you took it related to writing this message) ... the effect definitely lasts for several hours. So it just doesn't finish with the one bowel movement. If you belly was till hard it you may have had a motion later as well. However, it may just be due to the operation. If you don't have abdominal pain, etc. it should be okay.

(BLP) has promoted five associates to its partnership, the second fall-off in promotions in a row.
The slight dip from 2007-08, when six were made up, is the second year of low promotions since 2006-07's glut of 13.
However the lower partnership promotions coincide with the firm's introduction of the associate director alternative to partnership, first reported by The Lawyer (12 Jan 2006), to which four associates were promoted last year, and nine the year before that.
The firm made up two and nine associates respectively for each of the two years before the introduction of the scheme.
Managing partner Neville Eisenberg said: "I am very pleased for all of them and delighted that our continued growth has enabled us to offer them this opportunity to develop their careers with us."
Two of the associates to join the partnership on 1 May are in the tax group, with one each in the finance, technology and real estate teams.
All five of the promotions are in London, with the firm's offices in Paris, Brussels and Singapore all missing out.
The 2008-09 new partners are:
– Elizabeth Bradley and Julian Hickey (corporate tax, London)
– Alex Latner (corporate finance, London)
– Vanessa Barnett (business and technology, London)
– Angus Ford (real estate, London).

It's a business so boring that even Amcor got rid of it. As a manufacturer of boxes, folding cartons, sacks, glass and aluminium cans, the newly spun-off Orora Group is among the dullest businesses on the ASX. There won't be queues to buy the latest line of boxes; celebrity managers don't make fibre sacks for a living. For the dispassionate investor, however, this is the kind of business that can yield opportunity. It is precisely because it is so dull that we are drawn to it.

Newly spun out of Amcor, Orora is a desperately dull business but that, explains Gaurav Sodhi, is what gets us excited.

During the mid-1990s, while working evenings and weekends on her PhD dissertation on 18th-century Philadelphia, veteran Library of Congress archivist Margaret McAleer found inspiration in what one might consider an unlikely place: the papers of legendary Los Angeles-based, 20th-century designers Charles and Ray Eames. Ray Eames, who died in 1988, had bequeathed the collection to the library, and McAleer was assigned to organize the manuscript portion of the collection in advance of a 1998 exhibition on the designers.[1] She dove into its endless contents. "I was so inspired by their creativity and passion," she noted in a recent interview. "They developed unique, fresh perspectives on … [Read more...]

Rachel Dolezal and the Racial Trickster: A Local Perspective on Crossing and Crafting Identities
I live in Spokane, WA, where I write and teach about race, identity, and social justice. I have never met Rachel Dolezal, who also resides in Spokane, though we have at least a few acquaintances and causes in common. My own visceral reaction to the Dolezal story is tied to but also goes beyond the fact that I am a resident of Spokane as a well as a student of race. In part it's a reaction to the racial crossing and how she did it. But it's also a disappointment because she had been effective as an activist on the local scene. Dolezal was an effective and cogent organizer and talking head—bodies and boots matter, and she did bring them out. (Then again, I don't want to discount organizations … [Read more...]

It's a story as old as art and anthropology themselves, but Shlossberg tells it with a sharp eye and a fresh voice.

WASHINGTON – For now, there is no update on Flyers winger Simon Gagne.
Gagne did not practice on Monday after only skating in one shift in the third period of Sunday's 4-1 loss to the San Jose Sharks.
Gagne had an ultrasound test done on his hip and groin area in Philadelphia on Monday afternoon but Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren said that no information was available about test results on Monday night.
A Flyers spokesman told the Daily News on Tuesday morning that Holmgren is hoping to have more information by 2 p.m. this afternoon.
An area newspaper is reporting that Gagne will need to be put on injured reserve to undergo surgery for a sports hernia but Holmgren refuted that claim on Monday night.
As of this posting (11:30 a.m. Tuesday), the Flyers have not called up anyone from Adirondack to take Gagne's place. Riley Cote, who has been a healthy scratch, will likely fill his spot.
As for the game, you can bet that when the Capitals take the ice Tuesday, they will want blood.
The Flyers took the first game of the season series back on Oct. 6, in thrilling 6-5 fashion during their home opener at the Wachovia Center. Flyers captain Mike Richards netted a hat trick that game but has been relatively quiet since.
The Flyers tried to keep Alex Ovechkin off the board but he still managed to score twice.
Tuesday (7 p.m. on Versus) is a different story. The Capitals have found a way to win. They carry a 4-game win streak into the Verizon Center, though this will be their first of four games in six nights. Washington fought through overtime last game against the Islanders and bested Nashville in a shootout last week to pick up the extra points.
The Flyers did not have a morning skate today in Washington.
The Caps, meanwhile, look like they will be healthy tonight for the first time in a while. Alex Semin skated in the Caps' morning workout, meaning he could be back for the first time after missing two games with the flu. Defenseman Mike Green, who left Caps practice early on Monday with general soreness, was also on the ice.
Ovechkin, meanwhile, was not. He took the morning off. The Washington Post is reporting that the two-time MVP will play tonight.
Stat Watch:
-Alex Ovechkin has 9 goals and 8 assists for 17 points in 10 games. That's good, but it's actually not tops in the league. Los Angeles' Anze Kopitar leads the league in both points (21) and goals (10).
-Goaltenders Semyon Varlamov and Jose Theodore have almost split the time in net. Theodore has the better stats (2.55 GAA w/ .914 save percentage) but Varlamov has the better record (4-0-0). The Post says Theodore will start in net tonight.
Here are a few other factoids:
-San Jose defenseman Dan Boyle has more points (12) than anyone on the Flyers.
-The Flyers power play is worse on the road than at home. That is normal. They are operating at a 9-for-34 clip (26.5-percent) at home and have only converted 2-of-10 (20-percent) away from the Wachovia Center. The same should be true for the penalty kill, right? It's not. The Flyers PK is actually better on the road (16-for-18, 87.5-percent) than it is at home (25-for-29, 84-percent). It's also important to note that the Flyers are more disciplined on the road.
-The Flyers have scored the first goal of the game in seven of their nine contests, while also out-shooting their opponent in seven of their first nine games of the season as well.
- Jeff Carter's iron-man streak is now at 223 consecutive regular season games played.
- Defenseman Danny Syvret has recorded an assist in two of his last three games, while forward Darroll Powe has recorded a goal in two of his last three games.
-The Flyers' record when:
* scoring first: 5-1-1
* leading after 1st period: 1-1-1
* leading after 2nd period: 4-0-1
* out shooting opponent: 4-2-1
* one goal games: 2-1-1
* at home: 3-2-1
* on the road: 2-1-0
Check back for an update on Gagne later this afternoon.

Water bill scam targeting Houston customers
Updated 11:31 pm, Wednesday, August 19, 2015
Scammers are targeting Houston residents by demanding they pay past-due water bills to a bogus account, officials said.
Several customers have reported calls from someone identifying himself as an employee of Houston's water department. The caller says the delinquent bill should be paid through a MoneyGram account to a special address, authorities said.
But that's not how it works, said Houston public works officials.
If a water bill is late, the homeowner will receive a past-due notice and later a notice of disconnection before the service is cut off. Also, the resident may receive a call from the city's collection service agency.
They will be told how a past-due bill can be paid: by an electronic check, the telephone or the department's website. Also, the matter can be taken care of at approved payment locations around Houston, but never by MoneyGram, officials said.
Public works customers who receive calls that sound suspicious should either hang up or ask for a call-back number. Report the incident to 713-371-1400 or by calling 311 at nights or weekends.

Generation Zero is yet another title that contains all those things we have come to expect from Valiant's titles. Great storytelling combined with great art. It reflects a city in decline because of a failing economy and those that might pray on such places. It's about fitting in, about tropes we recognize from TV shows like Stranger Things; the fantastical mixed with the mundane. There are enough conspiracy angles, pop culture references and mutant like powers to satisfy all various fandoms.
Once again Valiant drags us into its intriguing universe by blending nostalgia, social criticism, intrigue, compelling plots and wonderful art. Generation Zero makes one want to come back for more.
Review: 4001 A.D. (Valiant Comics)
Writer: Matt Kindt
Art: Clayton Crain
Publisher: Valiant
In the very distant future, New Japan is in trouble. The kingdom, these days orbiting earth, is ruled by the omnipotent artificial intelligence Father, who commands New Japan with an iron fist through various channels and pacifies the people. His son, Rai, incites a rebellion and after apparently being defeated by Father and believed dead his partner Lulu infects the A.I. with a virus. This cause Father to lose control and begins to drop parts of New Japan back to earth in order to get rid of the virus, killing thousands in the process. And that's just the prologue…
As Lulu continues to fight the good fight while her section of New Japan is set for demolition and her parents beg her to turn herself in, Rai is still alive, trapped on Earth. With the aid of two companions and a mech-like ship the trio ventures back to the orbiting nation for a final confrontation with Father.
There is quite a bit that goes on in 4001 A.D. and at a very high pace. The few issues that the collection is comprised of tells a very compressed tale that flashes by in colorful art. It isn't very intricate, the story, a science-fiction version of a trope we have heard before, but that in no way makes it dull. The context and society that has spawned it makes for very interesting social commentary. Father numbs the people of New Japan with entertainment, which makes them uninterested in the world around them, very much like the unnamed government in 1987's Running Man. What Father's motives actually are remain unanswered as such, but a misguided love, like the one Stalin might have had towards the Russians. He and Rai seem to be fighting towards the same end goal, but with a very different view of one best reaches it.
Rai, who like the monster in Frankenstein has been created by a mad entity, becomes confronted by humanity and love and that is what shapes him, that is what causes him to rebel and in turn inspires others to join the fight. There is much to be discussed between the pages of 4001 A.D.; friendship, loyalty, love and parenthood and as a reader one wishes, when it is all said and done, that there had been more, more to sink your teeth into.
As with most Valiant titles the artwork is beautiful, filled with vibrant imagery and intense colors. It moves the story along and hints at a bigger picture and a wider world. It makes the entire 4001 A.D. world more mysterious and interesting and even though the four issues only treat a small portion of the story, a quick glance of a greater whole, it becomes exciting and furious.
All in all, a book like 4001 A.D. really shows the strengths of Valiant as a publisher and universe.
Review: Faith by Valiant Comics
Genre: Superhero
Publisher: Valiant
Writer: Jody Houser
Art: Francis Portela & Marguerite Sauvage
When looking out over Los Angeles one might see her soaring through the sky; Faith Herbert, also known as Zephyr of the Harbinger Resistance. Having left her friends and adopting a secret identity she drudges through life as Susan, working at an internet site eventually tasked with watching a reality show starring her ex-boyfriend Torque. When not stuck in her cubicle Faith flies around and stops crime even if it doesn't quite turn out as in her vivid daydreams. When she realizes that someone is hunting psiots, that her ex is quite uninterested in superhero work she sets out to investigate it herself, but when she in an unguarded moment reveals herself, she becomes a target.
Faith is in many instances a perfect comic. It takes a female superhero and avoids all the stereotypical traps that they jump into without thought. The character of Faith is also exactly what happens when a true nerdy fan girl has supernatural powers and abilities. The story in this first collected issue appears, at first glance, to be quite basic with kidnappings and the like, but it is quickly revealed that there is depth here and an ingenuity that is refreshing. The artwork is nice and the juxtaposition between Faith's reality and her daydreams is clever. Faith's job at a buzzfeed like internet magazine and the reality show makes the comic close to its social context and it speaks to the reader showing that the writer, Jody Houser, is in tune with the trends of the day. Something that actually isn't that common in the comic world of today. Another aspect that Valiant does so well is the use of the shared universe and the continuity they have created; Archer makes an appearance.
All in all; Faith is the comic book we all deserve and is clever, witty, exciting and entertaining.

Sweet potato is an excellent nutritional vegetable which adds a great value to our diet. It's so beneficial for our health that one is always advised to opt for this vegetable over the traditional potato, overconsumption of which can cause us health problems.
Sweet potato belongs to the Convolvulaceae family. It is starchy and has a sweet taste. If you are looking for reasons to eat this superfood, here we give you at least 10 of them.
What are you waiting for? Have a look at these benefits that sweet potatoes provide us with and include them in your diet, today!
1. Nutritious:
Sweet potato, to describe in one word, is a powerhouse of nutrients. It contains vitamins A, B and C besides fibre, iron and potassium. Vitamin A (in the form of beta-carotene) in sweet potatoes helps in providing good health, skin health, bone formation, cell growth and proper immune system.
It's an excellent antioxidant. Vitamin C also betters the immune system and prevents the occurrence of illnesses. Magnesium in sweet potatoes helps in destressing and relaxation as well as in keeping the nerves, arteries and bones properly functional, while potassium prevents muscle cramps and boosts the kidneys' activities.
2. Fat-free Vegetables:
A big advantage with sweet potatoes is that though they contain no fat, yet consuming them will make you feel full, since they contain a high amount of fibre.
3. Anti-inflammatory:
Sweet potatoes are excellent anti-inflammatory vegetables. They contain complex carbohydrates, manganese, vitamins B6 and C, dietary fibre, beta-carotene, etc., and act as powerful antioxidants that help in healing inflammation.
4. Good For Expecting Mothers:
The folate in sweet potatoes helps in the development of the foetus in a mother's womb.
5. Low Glycaemic Index:
Sweet potatoes have a low glycaemic index (GI), which means they increase your blood sugar levels gradually, so that it remains stable after a meal.
However, the GI in sweet potatoes can vary a great deal depending on the way you treat it. While the GI of a 15-g sweet potato boiled with its skin for half-an-hour is 46, it goes up to 94 when it is baked for 45 minutes. So, have them boiled instead of baked.
6. Convenient To Take:
Sweet potatoes can be eaten in any form you like. You can take them baked, boiled, roasted, grilled or even in a soup. In whatever form it is, you will definitely gain nutrients.
7. Improves Digestion:
Since they are rich in dietary fibres, sweet potatoes help in having a good digestive system and bowel movement.
8. Cures Emphysema:
Emphysema is a progressive disease of the lungs, whereby the gradual destruction of the air sacs causes a problem in breathing. For those who have this serious ailment, vitamin A content in sweet potatoes can be a great cure for this.
9. Cure For Stomach Ulcers:
If you are suffering from stomach ulcers, include sweet potatoes in your diet, so that the vitamins and minerals present in them can cure the ailment effectively.

In this hour, David Rothenberg is a philosopher and musician who enjoys playing his clarinet with animals. His new book is Thousand Mile Song: Whale Music in a Sea of Sound which talks about the duets he played with whales: humpbacks, belugas and orcas. He talks with Steve Paulson about how and why he did what he did, and we hear lots of his (their) music.
Next, Jennifer Angus is an artist who finds insects so beautiful she uses them in her work. Anne Strainchamps visits with her in her studio.
Then, essayist Anne Fadiman reads from and talks with Steve Paulson about her essay "Collecting Nature." It comes from her latest collection, At Large and at Small and talks about the delight she and her brother took as children with collecting (and killing) butterflies.
After that, David Gessner is a nature writer who's sick of nature and most nature writing. In his essay "My Green Manifesto" and in this conversation with Steve Paulson, Gessner makes the case for wilder, messier, more eccentric writing. Gesner's books include Sick of Nature and Soaring with Fidel. He's the editor of Ecotone, an environmental literary magazine.
And finally, Christopher Benfey is the author of A Summer of Hummingbirds. He tells Anne Strainchamps why there was a hummingbird craze in 19th century Massachsetts, how artists and poets used them as symbols, and why they seem like winged jewels. Benfey teaches English at Mount Holyoke College in Massachusetts. [Broadcast Date: October 1, 2010]

Well, Cindy and I are both under the weather [booo] and she passed it along to me. We have stayed low key and today I made a fun Easter treat that sadly she couldn't enjoy. I do actually have a sugar line I draw with her. So, while she was having some "me time" I tried these peep s'mores I pinned. If Cindy were in school we probably would have packaged them up real cute like the person who originally pinned it.
In theory this is a cute idea and when it is all packaged it looks adorable, but when I was actually putting it together it felt a little inhumane. I suddenly felt bad for the little bunny peep that was about to be melted and eaten. Poor cotton tail didn't know what was coming to him.
I almost couldn't eat it after seeing that face peeking out.... I said almost. I did eat it and let me tell you, it was good till the last bite. It is a nice little treat and I might just put a few of these in our family Easter basket.
And speaking of Easter, this is the perfect time for me to tell you all that I have a whole lotta fun Easter things coming your way next week. Lets see how many I am able to accomplish. So far the only thing I have posted is the DIY Resurrection Eggs.
Be sure to check out some of the things we posted in the past few weeks and check out the Frap recipe Jeanine posted. And if you have tried something on pinterest and documented it please share!

Inhibition of Extracellular Signal–Regulated Kinase in Liver of Hyperhomocysteinemic Mice
To the Editor:
We read with great interest the article by Woo et al,1 reporting the involvement of cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (cAMP-PKA) signaling pathway in activation of the transcription factor cAMP-response element binding protein (CREB) during hyperhomocysteinemia in the liver. Hyperhomocysteinemia, defined as elevated homocysteine (Hcy) levels in blood, is not only associated with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disorders, but is also accompanied by hepatic steatosis.2 As CREB plays an important role in the expression of genes involved in lipid metabolism, the work of Woo et al1 is of great importance to show the mechanism by which Hcy induces CREB activation. Among the signaling pathways important for activation of CREB, protein kinases such as PKA, extracellular signal regulated-kinase (ERK), and p38 mitogen-activating protein (p38 MAP) kinase are able to phosphorylate CREB leading to its activation.3 Woo et al1 demonstrated, by incubation of hepatocytes with inhibitor of protein kinases, that Hcy-induced CREB activation is mediated by PKA signaling pathway, but not by ERK pathway or p38 MAP kinase pathway. These results are very intriguing because we have showed the involvement of ERK and PKA signaling pathways in the Hcy-induced CREB activation in an ex vivo model of hippocampal slices.4 As we have also shown an activation of ERK and the downstream nuclear target CREB in the hippocampus of cystathionine beta synthase (CBS)-deficient mice, a murine model of hyperhomocysteinemia,4 the present work was designed to investigate whether activation of ERK also occurs in liver of CBS-deficient mice.
Heterozygous CBS-deficient (Cbs+/−) mice were bred to obtain homozygous CBS deficient (Cbs−/−) mice. Genotyping for the targeted CBS allele was performed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis.5 At weaning, Cbs−/− mice were fed a standard diet supplemented with 1.592 g/kg choline chloride salt, necessary to their survival. The wild-type littermates (Cbs+/+) were also fed the same supplemented chow to avoid differences attributable to the diet. At the time of sacrifice, blood samples were collected into tubes containing an 1/10 volume of 3.8% sodium citrate, placed on ice immediately, and plasma was isolated by centrifugation at 2500g for 15 minutes at 4°C. Plasma total Hcy (tHcy), defined as the total concentration of Hcy after quantitative reductive cleavage of all disulfide bonds, was assayed by using the fluorimetric high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method described by Fortin and Genest.6 The liver was harvested, snap frozen, and stored at −80°C until use. A piece of the liver was homogenized and 30 μg of protein per samples were subjected to immunoblot analysis using antibodies specific to phospho-ERK1 (Tyr 204; 1:100; Santa Cruz Biotechnology) and ERK1/2 (1:12000; Chemicon) as described.4 Even if ERK activation in Cbs+/− mice, showing a 2-fold increase in tHcy level (Table), was similar from Cbs+/+ mice (Table), ERK activation was decreased by 50% in liver of Cbs−/− mice (Figure, a; Table), showing a 40-fold increase in tHcy (Table). To determine whether this decrease was attributable to the loss of CBS expression or to the resultant hyperhomocysteinemia, the activation of ERK was also examined in liver of Cbs+/− mice fed a hyperhomocysteinemic diet7 compared with the activation in liver of Cbs+/− mice. At weaning, mice were fed a standard diet supplemented with 0.5% l-methionine in drinking water for 3 months. Such a diet led to a 4-fold increase in tHcy (Table) and decreased ERK activation by 30% (Figure, b; Table). These results show that hyperhomocysteinemia inactivates ERK in mouse liver.
Activated MAP kinases can be inactivated by MAP kinase phosphatases (MKPs). Among these MKPs, MKP-1 is inducible by a variety of cellular stresses, including oxidative stress, at mRNA levels.8 As oxidative stress has been found to be promoted by hyperhomocysteinemia in liver of CBS-deficient mice,9 we have also analyzed the gene expression of MKP-1. The mRNA levels of MKP-1 were assessed by real-time quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (Q-PCR), using Light Cycler FastStart DNA Master SYBR Green I Kit (Roche Diagnostics), as described.9 The primer-annealing temperature was 65°C. The mouse superoxide dismutase-1 (SOD1) mRNA was used as an endogenous control.7 ΔΔCp analysis of the results allows to assess the ratio of the target mRNA versus SOD1 mRNA. MKP-1 mRNA levels in livers of Cbs+/− mice were similar from Cbs+/+ mice (Table), in agreement with ERK activation. However, MKP-1 mRNA levels not only in the livers of Cbs−/− mice but also in the liver of Cbs+/− mice fed a hyperhomocysteinemic diet were higher than that of Cbs+/+ mice and Cbs+/− mice (Table). These results emphasize the role of hyperhomocysteinemia on MKP-1 expression, which may be contributing to the inhibition of ERK phosphorylation in liver.
Taken together, our results support the view of Woo et al1 that ERK kinase signaling pathway is not involved in Hcy-induced CREB activation in hepatocytes. Moreover, our results demonstrate that some signal transduction pathways, like ERK, can be differentially regulated according to the tissue which is affected in hyperhomocysteinemic mice.
We thank Dr N. Maeda (Department of Pathology, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill) for providing heterozygous Cbs+/− mice and Aurélie Ledru for expert technical assistance.

Rafa plans to keep stars
Rafa Benitez plans to keep Maicon, Mario Balotelli and Esteban Cambiasso and would not discuss Javier Mascherano.
By James Dall
Last Updated: 15/06/10 4:19pm
New Inter Milan manager Rafa Benitez has indicated he plans to keep Maicon, Mario Balotelli and Esteban Cambiasso at the club.
The former Liverpool boss was unveiled as Jose Mourinho's successor at a press conference on Tuesday.
Much speculation has surrounded what changes Benitez may make this summer, with a number of players' futures the subject of conjecture.
In particular, right-back Maicon has been linked with a move to Mourinho's new club Real Madrid.
But Benitez said: "We have so many class players and Maicon is one of them.
"Maicon is important for us, we must speak with the club about him and decide, but for now he's our player and we are happy because Maicon is very strong."
It has also been suggested the controversial Balotelli could depart, but Benitez appears keen to retain his services.
He said: "Balotelli is a quality player, and we are happy to have him with us, we need to work well with him."
Benitez is reportedly keen on bringing Liverpool's Javier Mascherano to Italy, perhaps partnering him with fellow Argentine Cambiasso in midfield.
Of the rumours, the Spanish coach said: "For me, Cambiasso is a player of the highest level, we are happy to have him here.
"I cannot talk about the other one (Mascherano) because he is not ours."
He continued: "I've only been here two days. It's important to talk about important players, and there will be time for that.
"I will try to buy good players, of a good level who will suit a top level club but I can't say their names. Good players.
"I don't talk about players of other teams. We have to analyse the future and then we will decide what player we want.
"It's always difficult to improve something that has worked so well.
"We are analysing everything, I think we can do it but I prefer to work calmly now in the club and then think of other things.
"I'm very happy to be here. Very happy and very proud."
Inter technical director Marco Branca concluded to Sky Italia that key striker Diego Milito will not be leaving the club.
He added: "Is Milito transferable? No."

Publication Type:Working papers
Keywords:elections, European Parliament, Greece
A researcher of the latest elections in Greece has to deal with two important issues. The first one is the growing abstention rates, especially from the elections for the European Parliament. The number of votes cast for the 2004 parliamentary elections was about 7.6 millions. The number of those who participated in the 2004 elections for the European Parliament was about 6.3 millions. The number of voters rose again up to 7.35 millions in the parliamentary elections held in 2007, but it dropped to less than 5.3 millions in the 2009 elections for the European Parliament. For the parliamentary elections of 2009 the number of people who have casted their vote is about 7 millions.
The second important issue refers to the changes of the power of the two major Greek political parties. The share of votes for New Democracy followed a declining route since the 2004 parliamentary elections from 45.36% to 41.84% in 2007 to 32.29% in the 2009 elections for the European Parliament and 33.48% in the 2009 parliamentary elections. PASOK won the 2009 parliamentary elections with a vote share of 43.92%.
In this paper we analyze the results of the Parliamentary and the European elections of 2009 with two targets: to explain the high abstention rate from the European elections and to interpret the win of PASOK. Our findings reinforce the view that the European elections are faced by Greek voters as second order elections. Reduced participation, observed mainly in urban areas and younger ages. As far as the 2009 national election is concerned, PASOK enjoys a high loyalty rate (94.7%) among the voters who voted for PASOK in 2007 and earns voters from all other political parties.

Hemp is one of the purest, most complete plants on Earth. They are rich in vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids and are a highly nutritious source of protein.
Hemp has 3 unique nutritional factors. It has an ideal balance of Omega 3 and 6 for sustainable human health, it has a full amino acid spectrum meaning it provides complete vegetable protein, and it has a massive trace mineral content. Hemp seeds are the only edible seeds with gamma-linolenic acid (GLA). Truly one of nature's superfoods. Even though hemp seeds do not contain THC, the psychoactive substance in marijuana, all hemp seeds in the EU have been treated in order to prevent domestic sprouting.
Whole hemp seeds are great for making hemp seed milk. They can also be ground and used in flour recipes. All Hemp Seeds available for sale in the EU are sterilised and therefore not suitable for sprouting.
Make great tasting hemp milk, so simple and easy to do at home. If you do not have a milk maker you can make hemp milk as below:
Soak your hemp seeds for 24 hours in distilled water. Drain, rinse and blend in a blender with a little distilled water. Strain through a cloth or sieve.
The milk is best drunk immediately, although it can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 48 hours. If you have the hemp milk maker, follow the instructions with the machine.

Australian Director Joseph Sims-Dennett's Observance is an ambitious psychological thriller with a great lead performance from actor Lindsay Farris. The film is somewhat let down by a diversion into the supernatural that will frustrate some viewers as the film's plot is overwhelmed by an erratic mix of genre tropes and excursions into the bizarre setting of the main character's damaged psychology. Working from a story he co-wrote with Josh Zammit, Sims-Dennett deserves credit for his perseverance in getting this film made because, despite it's dalliance with other-worldly subject matter, Observance feels like a very personal piece of movie-making. The close camera work, limited number of sets and restrained performances create an impression that Observance is more of a documentary than a feature film.
Observance is the tale of Parker (Lindsay Farris), a Private Investigator, whose marriage has broken down in the aftermath of his son's death. While the film never spells out exactly what happened to his son, the result has left Parker bankrupt and needing to take any kind of job to make ends meet. The film's opening scenes follow a young woman (Stephanie King) to her apartment in a non-descript street in part of a city "somewhere". (The setting has a deliberate vagueness that seems like it has something to do with improving the film's commercial chances international film markets.) Behind her, but at a distance, is Parker, watching. Soon after, the Investigator forces his way into the apartment across the street; the audience discovering that this run-down residence has been secured especially for this job by Parker's employer (Brendan Cowell, who is only ever heard on the end of the telephone). This first part of the film moves slowly, but deliberately and there's a sense of oppression and tension that filters into the story. At various stages, Lindsay Farris looks like he's actually physically distressed. (The film's production notes reveal that Sims-Dennett and the cast & crew undertook principal photography during the Summer of 2013 in Sydney, during an extended heat wave that saw the mercury push well beyond normal levels.) Despite the discomfort it appears to have caused, it has done no harm in adding to the intensity created in the film's first half.
Where Observance starts to unravel is in its use of supernatural symbolism as the cause of Parker's degeneration into madness. The longer he watches through his camera and listens through the devices he has pointed at the young woman's apartment, the more paranoid he becomes. Much like Gene Hackman in the classic Francis Ford Coppola film The Conversation, Parker catches snippets of conversations and sees pieces of exchanges between the young woman, Tenneal, and her fiance Bret (Tom O'Sullivan) that alarm him and question his employer about what is really going on. With such a strong premise founded in real paranoia, Sims-Dennett makes an interesting choice to move the story into the supernatural. It's visually effective and there are some beautiful shots of 'the dark sea', a place where Parker's subconscious intertwines with whatever it is that has started to physically and psychologically overwhelm him the longer he stays in the abandoned apartment watching Tenneal. There's a definite argument to be made that a stronger, more traditional cinematic plot focussing on the immediate danger to Tenneal could have made Observance a better film without the need to introduce 'horror' tropes into the story.
Observance clip - Blood & plastic
From a technical viewpoint, Observance is a well made movie and Joseph Sims-Dennett demonstrates a real talent for keeping his performers focussed and getting the shots he needs with great economy. The film's obvious budget limitations work in its favour. Besides a limited number of outdoors shots, events are confined to the abandoned apartment that Parker operates from and Tenneal's apartment directly across the street. Cinematographer Rodrigo Vidal Dawson does a good job of capturing Parker's mental degeneration visually the further the story progresses. Dawson uses a lot of non-traditional camera angles and the viewer feels more and more removed from Parker the longer he stays in the apartment. As mentioned, Lindsay Farris is great as Parker and is well supported by Stephanie King as Tenneal. Despite never appearing on screen, Brendan Cowell is extremely effective as the disembodied voice of the employer. There is a lot to recommend Observance, but as the film progresses, it feels as though the story becomes impenetrable, as the supernatural elements become more frequent with no apparent underlying purpose. Viewers happy to indulge in some post-viewing reflection may find something of value in having seen the film, but others may be left frustrated by a plot that swerves a little too far into nihilism.
Observance - production images
Observance is a supernatural tale that examines the decay of a man's mind and soul. The story follows the slow but inexorable spiral into madness of Private Investigator Parker (Lindsay Farris), who accepts an assignment that places him in a position where he begins to question his sanity. Observance is the second feature film from Joseph Sims-Dennett and makes its Australian premiere at the Ritz Cinema in Sydney on April 3, 2016.

Into their midst comes Jean-Baptiste Baratte, a young, provincial engineer charged by the king with demolishing it. At first Baratte sees this as a chance to clear the burden of history, a fitting task for a modern man of reason. But before long, he begins to suspect that the destruction of the cemetery might be a prelude to his own.

Joe Pantoliano
Life Path Number 1
Joe Pantoliano is an Actor.
He was born on Wednesday September 12th 1951, in Hoboken, New Jersey, USA,.
Joe Pantoliano was born with extra-ordinary drive and determination. He is a born leader. Joe insists on his right to make up his own mind; he demands freedom of thought and action, and does not let anything or anyone stand in his way once he is committed to his goal.
Pantoliano assumes the responsibility to be the protector and provider for those he loves. He demands respect and attention and becomes irritated and even domineering when important things do not go his way.
Joe Pantoliano needs to feel in command of important undertakings, and resists supportive roles. He seeks the forefront and the limelight.
Joe is exceptionally creative and original and possesses a touch of the unusual. His approach to problems is unique and he has the courage to wander from the beaten path. Joe Pantoliano can be impatient with his shortcomings and those of others.
He is very concerned with his status and fosters the appearance of success and self-satisfaction. The need to appear well off propels Joe to strive for growth, success and the finer things of life.
Joe Pantoliano should watch out for selfishness, conceit and the over-concern with appearance. He must guard against overzealous behavior, anger and aggressiveness. If these qualities are not brought under control Joe could become excessively domineering, vindictive and even violent. He performs best when he left to his own devices. Ideally Pantoliano should own his own business and be his own boss. Joe Pantoliano should hold fast to his life's dream and work with the determination he possesses to realize it. Joe can become overly stressed by his driven nature. He needs to be careful about the food he eats and maintain an exercise program he enjoys. Competition sports are often a healthy outlet for a person with Pantoliano's drive, particularly sports involving running and swimming. Joe Pantoliano must not let pride and overconfidence be his masters. He has to remember that his talents and abilities are a gift from a higher source, which should promote gratitude and humility, rather than pride and conceit.
More often than not a person with a 1 Life Path will achieve much in life as long as the drive, creativity, originality and pioneering spirit are fully employed!
You and Joe
About Joe's Life Path number
If ever there was a single moment of total transformation, it was actually the moment of Joe Pantoliano's birth. In that instant, Joe stepped through a door in time into a new reality - the reality of human life. The most critical number in Pantoliano's numerology chart is based on the date of his birth - the moment when the curtain went up in Joe Pantoliano's life.
