Maggi noodles: No negative reports on samples tested so far in Maharashtra
Amid row over alleged lapses in food safety standards of instant noodles Maggi, the Maharashtra government on Wednesday said there have been no negative reports about the samples tested so far.
Also Read: Maggi noodles: The entire controversy explained
"We have taken some samples but we have not found any negative reports. I am in constant touch with Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Harshadeep Kamble on the issue," Food and Civil Supplies minister Girish Bapat told PTI on Wednesday.

He said that around 8-10 samples of Maggi have been tested by the government. "Their production is batch wise and to do a detailed analysis of their product, we need to test samples from different batches, the work of which is going on. A problem can be identified once more such samples from other batches are tested," Bapat said.
He said that the government will take necessary action against Nestle if something is found amiss. The probe into alleged lapses of food safety standards has already been expanded to test Maggi noodle samples from across the country following detection of mono-sodium glutamate and lead in excess of the prescribed limit in the noodles.

|Models Play Dead in Victoria Beckham's Latest Campaign
Namely, the models appear unconscious in the pics and look as if they are playing dead. Shot by photographer Colin Dodgson, the photographs are said to draw upon the controversial "heroin chic" trend, which catapulted supermodel Kate Moss to stardom in the '90s.
"For the past four seasons, we have invited a photographer to interpret the Victoria Victoria Beckham collection according to their own creative vision for the look book imagery," a rep for Victoria Beckham tells E! News. "This season we worked with a photographer who has a particular, idiosyncratic style of photography, to shoot the AW15 collection within this series. "
Known for her minimalistic style and her simple atheistic, the campaign is certainly a departure from Beckham's previous, although the fashionista earned rave reviews for her AW15 collection, which she recently showcased at New York Fashion Week with her famous (and ridiculously good-looking) family in attendance.

Best decision ever made:
Choosing to study in LASALLE College Of The Arts. It was a risk as I thought I'd never do arts and my parents always thought it would be a stupid career, but when I finally chose to go to LASALLE, it was a bit of an awakening or something. I'm doing Design Communications and I have two years to go.
What do you like about Design Communication?
I don't just like graphics; I like design that tells a story. I feel that graphic design has the opportunity to convey messages and to change things, so that's something I really love about it. I feel like I can start change.
Favourite artist/graphic designer:
Stefan Sagmeister. His work moved away from being purely digital—he actually used a knife to cut text onto his own body for a poster. It was a bit crazy, but it was so raw and he wanted to portray the ordeal of graphic design and how difficult it is to do it.
What kind of music do you listen to?
I'm not too sure if there's a genre for the music I'm listening to, but it's a lot of The Civil Wars, Of Monsters And Men, and Oh Wonder. I'm currently listening to a lot of Oh Wonder and my favourite song by them is Drive.
Scariest thing you've done?
I would still have to say going to LASALLE—the interview was nerve-wracking!

SHANGHAI, Jan 10 (Reuters) - The Shanghai Gold Exchange plans to launch an international board in the city's pilot free trade zone in the first half of this year to attract overseas capital to invest in China's gold market, local media reported on Friday.
"We are pushing for the international board to be launched during the first half," Song Yuqin, deputy general manager of the Shanghai bourse, was quoted as saying in the Shanghai Daily.
"It will definitely be launched within the year," Song said, adding that the contracts on the international board will be priced in yuan instead of foreign currencies.
The bourse is now looking for a site for a bonded warehouse in the zone, he said.
The Shanghai free trade zone, launched in September, is intended to test profound reforms to the country's economic and financial system, including liberalisation of China's currency regime and interest rates
The Shanghai Gold Exchange is the world's biggest physical gold exchange. All buying and selling of spot bullion in China has to happen through the exchange.

My mother had a whipple done 2002.She did not have chemo. 6 months ago it come back in her pancreas 2cms what is left of it. Spread to her liver not much alittle she couldint go through the clinical trials because her kidneys were bad. so they put her on gemzar through the ivy no nutrition nothing. 3months later they stoped her chemo because it spread alittle in the kidney. Doctor told her to come back to see what else they could do one month later they put her on Iressa which is for lung cancer. she was on it less then 30 days. She was in the hospitol because her legs and feet were swollen from this test she had to do for her legs high cholesteral. They at another hospitol took MRI on her back to see why her legs were swollen to see if it was a nerve the mri showed she had bone cancer that just started. The onocologist took her off her pills and said you have shadey lungs might be cancer cause it is getting worse said nothing about the bone cancer. He said she has till new years and there is nothing they can do. We are not giving up! If you have cancer or your loved one and you feel they are not doing enough or taking thier time like a month long of doing nothing,knowing the cancer spreads fast. Go somewhere else. I will be taking my mother to The Cancer Center Of America. They are going to take her for two days and go from their and if she needs to stay longer she will. One girl from there had a different kind of cancer was stage four and had 6 months to live her doctor said there was nothing else he could do. She went to cancer center of america and now it is 14 years. I pray for you all and i pray for my mom i still have hope an so does she. An sorry if i didint explain things well i just tired and really needed to let more people know their is hope and miracles even if you do have to travel. I will come back and let ya know how this place really works.

IT is time that Sheffield Wednesday and Leeds United returned to the top flight, believes the man who managed both clubs ahead of tomorrow's lunchtime Championship derby at Hillsborough.
The clubs last contested a Premier League derby in April, 2000. A week-and-a-half later, Wednesday were relegated. It is so long ago that Howard Wilkinson was a few months away from being named caretaker manager of England's national team for the second time.
Leeds followed Wednesday down in 2004 and Yorkshire's biggest clubs became lost in the wilderness.
Wilkinson managed both clubs, leaving Hillsborough for Leeds in 1988 and famously taking them to the last title before the advent of the Premiership.
"I'd like to see the situation change, for Leeds and for Wednesday," he said. "It's a long time since this was a Premier League game, that's true, but my view on that has always been very simple.
"If you look at the crowds, the history of the clubs and the potential they've shown over the years – the things they've done over the years – then they're great candidates for the Premier League but you need more than that to get there.
"In the end it's about everything – players, finances, the way a club's run, the way a team's managed.
"I can't say I'm surprised that either club's been in the Championship for so long because the longer it goes on the more people come to expect it. But disappointed?
"Yes. I'm disappointed about it because I understand the potential."
Wednesday – almost 16 years on from their demise under Peter Shreeves – released theirs under Thai businessman Dejphon Chansiri, who took charge 12 months ago, and are seventh, two points from the play-offs, with four wins from five.
United's owner, Massimo Cellino, thought seriously about buying Wednesday, or at least spoke with Milan Mandaric about the possibility, before he began arranging his majority purchase of Leeds in early 2014. The two-year anniversary of that takeover will fall in April and it is hard to know if Cellino would draw any satisfaction from the months in between.
Steve Evans, Leeds' head coach and the sixth employed under Cellino, has dangled the play-offs in front of the Italian ever since he replaced Uwe Rosler in October but 12 points adrift and 10 behind Wednesday, that target will disappear if United lose at Hillsborough tomorrow. There are some who think it went with Tuesday's stoppage-time defeat at Ipswich Town. Others feel Leeds were never genuinely in the running.
Tomorrow, still, is the first time for a while that a derby between the clubs carries more significance than merely local rivalry.
Wednesday could move up to fifth at full-time. Evans was not joking when he described the fixture as "must-win" and an away win would at least allow him to cling to his own sense of optimism, with the bottom starting to drop out of sixth-placed Brighton's season.
Wilkinson said Evans was right to persevere. "Leeds aren't out of it," he said. "If you're realistic then 12 points is a lot to make up with half of the season gone. The statistics would say that it's very hard from here but it's difficult to categorise the Championship, the same as it is the Premier League this season. Is not black-and-white in terms of ruling teams in and out.
"The right attitude is to go at it for as long as you can. But I'm not saying it won't be difficult. I think Leeds will know full well that it's going to be difficult. They'd rather be where Wednesday are."
It frustrates Wilkinson that the county does not have a single representative in the Premier League.
"People in Sheffield would tell you that the Sheffield derby is their biggest game.
"My view as someone who's been in this business all his life is that the higher you go up the leagues, the bigger the games get.
"Wednesday's games with Leeds were massive games in the Premier League and I'd like that to be the case again. It's Yorkshire football I feel sorry for. I want Wednesday up there, and Leeds and Sheffield United. I want clubs like that in the Premier League, punching their weight. It's time they were."

- Description
- Touring in Madeira. Looking down on Porto Moniz, on the north west coast of the Island, from the viewpoint above the town on the ER 101. Before the new Rapido stretch of the ER 101 was built, from Sao Vicente, tunnelling westwards through the coastal cliffs, Porto Moniz was effectively isolated, because of the long journey times imposed by the horrendous narrow old road, which edged around, along and through the precipitous coastline. The new road has opened up the north west coast of Madeira, and, consequently, new facilities have been built to service the burgeoning tourist trade. Not least of these are the extensive rock pools along the Porto Moniz sea front. The volcanic lava ridges have been made into tidal pools semi isolated from the sea. When this view was taken, the very strong northerly wind was forcing large Atlantic waves into the pools, limiting the bathing being done. More descriptive information is available on Madeira (general), specific locations, Gardens, Markets, Levadas, specific Levadas, Bananas, and specific plants. Please ask.

Integrated Reporting or <IR> is defined in the International Integrated Reporting <IR> Framework as "a process founded on integrated thinking that results in a periodic integrated report by an organisation about value creation over time and related communications regarding aspects of value creation". The movement towards <IR> potentially represents one of the most significant changes to corporate reporting in years.
<IR> aims to integrate all the key elements of a business; from aligning vision and strategies to enhancing risk management. It goes beyond performance reporting to include reporting of value creation strategies and processes of an organisation.
This platform serves as a one-stop centre for those interested in exploring this new form of corporate reporting. Our resources include the latest updates on local and international developments in <IR>, thought leadership pieces, our perspectives on international proposals and many other useful references.

Diana, Princess of Wales was a global humanitarian figure who dedicated her life to helping improve the lives of disadvantaged people
Humanitarian work played an important part in the Princess' life, both at home and abroad.
Her interests were reflected in the organisations of which she was Patron or President.
These included the Great Ormond Street Hospital for Sick Children in London and the Royal Marsden Hospital, which specialises in the treatment of cancer. Her patronages also included Centrepoint, an organisation working with the homeless, The National Aids Trust and The Leprosy Mission.
The Princess's love of the arts was underlined by her involvement as Patron of the English National Ballet. During her lifetime she was at some time patron of an additional 100 charities.
She made many visits to North America, visiting hospices, schools, charities and fundraising galas, and touched the lives of many wherever she went. Other major overseas visits included Angola, Australia, Bosnia, Egypt, India, Pakistan, and many European countries.
The Princess spoke out on a wide range of issues and used her high profile to raise awareness as well as funds for charitable causes. She is rightly recognised and respected today as a true humanitarian.
Connecting with people
The Princess is remembered by everyone she met for her warmth and genuine interest in their situation and difficulties. She threw herself into her charity work in a very personal way, spending countless hours listening to the individual stories and problems of the people she visited.
She had the ability to make everybody feel special, in particular vulnerable young people who were touched by her warmth and affection. In 1984, she became President of Barnardo's, a British charity which helps the most vulnerable children and young people transform their lives and fulfil their potential.
She also had a natural empathy with people who were close to death or those who had lost a loved one - something which was clear through her visits to hospitals and hospices in the UK and abroad.
She described her work with the Royal Brompton Hospital, London, like this: 'I make the trips at least three times a week, and spend up to four hours at a time with patients holding their hands and talking to them. Some of them will live and some will die, but they all need to be loved while they are here. I try to be there for them.'
In February 1992 the Princess visited Mother Teresa's Hospice for the Sick and Dying in Kolkata, India, and visited every one of the 50 patients who were close to death. In Rome shortly afterwards, and later in London and New York, she met Mother Teresa and the two formed a strong personal connection.
Changing public attitudes
Diana, Princess of Wales understood the power of her role in the public's eye, and used that understanding to change attitudes to important issues of the day.
She is remembered for her devotion to all the causes she supported, but particularly for her championing of unpopular causes - such as those suffering from HIV/AIDS, those afflicted by leprosy and those whose lives had been devastated by landmines.
She was not afraid to speak out and show her support of those marginalised by society by becoming actively involved in highlighting their plight.
The image of the Princess standing in a minefield in Angola in January 1997 put the issue of landmines in the headlines the world over.
It is still an inspiring image today. When she spoke out with simple but practical words about HIV or was photographed holding the hand of someone with AIDS, she helped reduce stigma and the world took notice.


text: Another thread perked my interest. There are allot of strange places around campus and Ames to explore and I know there are allot of people who explore them. I was just curious about some of the strange places some of you have been. Disclaimer- I'm not trying to encourage trespassing. There are allot of people that have special access to places because of a job, club, or degree. Remember, anything you say can be used against you- just kidding. I think the strangest place on campus has to be Spangler Lab. Back out of sight, behind a fence and over the hill and always locked. The building looks occupied with offices and shops, but as you walk down some of the hallways you feel like you need a machete to get through the spider webs. It looks like the building was suddenly abandoned 20 years ago, cause there is nothing in the building that looks new- including the old dos computers and typewriters.

Here is our full trip report of our 6 night stay in Curacao.
THE ISLAND – We decided to try the island of Curacao after a previous trip to Aruba. I have to say I am torn as to which island I prefer. Curacao has a much more European feel which I preferred. At least of the tourists are from the Netherlands, and there is a lot of smoking and topless sunbathing. The Island is more lush than Aruba, and less breezy. I have to say I missed the breeze as it was so hot in the direct sun without a breeze. Outside of the cruise port area, it's a clean, non-commercial island.
HOTEL – We stayed at the Marriott using points. Having stayed at many high end hotels, I wasn't blown away by the rooms or public space but the rooms were clean and spacious. The hotel staff could not have been nicer or more accommodating. The beach area is very clean and the water is very clear. There is excellent snorkeling just a very short swim off the beach. I had to get up early each day to secure one of the covered straw huts, but it was worth it for the day to protect us from the sun and brief rain showers. Two days I wasn't able to secure a hut, but we got umbrellas which were fine, they just don't offer as much shade protection. The sun is VERY strong! We brought water shoes but only wore them one time, it really isn't that rocky. A few rocks at the shore then the rest is very sandy.
RESTAURANTS – We didn't eat dinner at any of the Marriott restaurants. We like to explore the island a little at night since we spent nearly every day at the hotel beach. We had lunch nearly every day at the Seabreeze bar at the Marriott. Its about $50 for 2 people with 1 or 2 alcohol drinks each, so no deal but you pay for the convenience. I think doing the AI at the Marriott would have been pretty depressing as there are only 2 dinner places and one is basically a sports bar. We had dinner at the following places:
Hooks Hut – We went here for dinner and lunch. Its much better for lunch. The food isn't amazing, but they make a good sandwich for lunch. The dinner food wasn't that great, especially for the price. But at night they have seating on the sand, right at the waters edge which was really nice.
Goveneurs – We really enjoyed this restaurant. We sat in the interior courtyard near the fountain. They have some outdoor seating which overlooks the marina, but it was super loud with taxis, the ferry and honking boats.
Sjolattes – We actually ate here two nights (which I have never done before) but it was so good. Its fine dining prices, but you get fine dining food. The small courtyard is very pretty, and it's a very special atmosphere. The shrimp/salmon salad are great and so are the ribeye. And its across the street from the Marriott which cuts down on cab costs.
Blue (Avala Hotel) – This was our only foray this far east on the island, and I wish we could have explored this area more. This hotel is near the Sea Aquarium area. The Blue Restaurant is at the end of a pier, and was a very unique spot. They have lights on the water, a band and some great outdoor bars. The seafood is very fresh and the prices are not too bad.
Bistro Le Clochard – We read so many good reviews of this restaurant and we saved it for our last night. While it's a great location on the water on Willemstad, again being on the water there isn't that great. Its like being near an industrial shipping port, its tankers and tug boats that are cruising by. The food here was VERY expensive, and I didn't think it was anything that special.
BEACHES – There seem to be a lot of great small beaches on the island. We rented a car for the day and visited a few. Its very easy to drive there, there is basically one road and it's a loop. The best beach we went to was Playa Abou, it was beautiful blue water and amazing cliffs people were jumping off of.
GOLF – We played the Curacao Golf and Squash Club. It was $30 to play 9 holes and about $15 to rent clubs and a push cart. It's a cool little private course and wasn't crowded at all. Iguanas are running all over the place. The other course on the island, I think its called Blue Bay didn't get great reviews, and its much more expensive.

Thanks booyah for taking the time to report. We will be there in April and read your notes with interest.

Great report. Thanks for sharing. We are also going in April and looking forward to it.
Just one question if you don't mind answering. We usually go AI when we travel and not going to this time since Curacao doesn't offer any really great AI choices. How much money do you think we would need for food/drinks for 7 nights/8 days. We don't have any of the expensive resturants on our list, but we will enjoy the beach bars.
Any pictures?

Really enjoyed reading your TR about Curacao. There is currently a lot of interest right now on this island on this board as a few regular posters are in the planning stages for their trips.
Might I make a suggestion? You would perhaps get more responses and have your post read by more people if you reposted it with a more specific title like Curacao Full Trip Report.

I am going to Curacao in April for the first time too. Thanks for the trip report it's nice to hear of other's experiences!!!!

No wavering in sewage waiver debate
The Coastal Commission did the right thing when it voted 8 to 1 to deny San Diego's waiver on sewage treatment. Your article states that every other city in California has secondary treatment to be in compliance with the Clean Water Act. So given the fact that so many of us spend so much time swimming and surfing in the ocean here, it strikes me as absurd that the Union-Tribune would call this vote "a blow to San Diego." If you take the numbers published in this story and enter them in a calculator, it works out to be an increase of less than $6 per month each to pay for the upgrade over 10 years.
OK, now I get it. It is all right to discharge our sewage into our ocean without secondary treatment as long as the resultant plume does not directly impact our shore. As long as it's "out there" we are supposedly safe and, more importantly, in compliance.
As an aside, congratulations for the bold employ of the word "plume" to describe what is happening out in the ocean. To my recollection, plumes have an association with toxic events but you make it sound positively benign! A pipeline "4.5 miles off Pt. Loma at an ocean depth of 310 feet ... "
If this were the only instance of our civic leaders failing to provide for the basic needs of the region, any arguments for a waiver would be more persuasive. However, it appears that our leaders are concerned only with the infrastructure needs of conventioneers and cruise ship passengers.
Spring Valley
The Coastal Commission's decision last week was rightly lampooned in the U-T editorial of Aug. 17, but you only scratched the surface in outlining the insanity and hypocrisy behind this decision.
If the rejection stands and San Diego is not granted its waiver, then county ratepayers will be saddled with a $1.5 billion bill to upgrade the Point Loma facility for secondary treatment. This added mandated expense could not come at a worse time as far as local government budgets are concerned. What you did not mention is that on top of that ratepayers each will be saddled with an estimated $25/month needed to operate secondary treatment.
The treatment facility at Point Loma currently is a net producer of electricity due to methane gas burn-off. If secondary treatment is implemented, then Point Loma would become a massive new load on the local power grid because of the high energy costs necessary for secondary treatment to operate. Much of the additional $25/month expense to ratepayers would be to cover this new electrical expense.
From a statutory perspective, the only part of the Pacific Ocean under discussion is a 30-foot hemisphere of water on the ocean floor at the end of the 4.5-mile long outflow pipeline. No rational cost-benefit analysis could possibly support the Coastal Commission's decision.
The Coastal Commission, Surfrider, and their ilk don't care about facts or reason. It is mind boggling in the extreme how the commission could reject the federal waiver for secondary treatment, as provided for in federal law, when the federal agency overseeing this request fully supports the waiver.
The Aug. 14 headline on the sewage waiver decision, "A defeat for San Diego," was puzzling. A mandate from the federal government to do a better job at sewage treatment is what San Diego needs to survive. San Diego depends on tourism. Most tourists come here for the beaches. If the water is dirty, they will take their money elsewhere.

Conflicts and crashes in sharing the road
This is in response to the Aug. 22 letter from A. Ray Ramos Jr., "Crackdown on bicyclists is long overdue."
I agree that many bicyclists, mostly riding in large groups, are rude and obnoxious and show little or no respect for others. I have logged over 26,000 miles on my bicycle, most of the miles in San Diego County as a lone rider, and have witnessed such behavior many times.
Cyclists who ignore the law and the common sense of safe riding should be cited. With regard to bus drivers, I have been run off the road by county buses more times than I can remember because they refuse to move even just a few inches from their line of travel. Bus drivers, pushing a large air mass, should slow down at least a little and move to the left as much as is safely possible and maybe confrontations of the kind Ramos speaks of will occur less frequently.
San Marcos
Regarding the unfair generalization of cyclists as lawbreakers:
While they are cracking down on scofflaw cyclists, perhaps SDPD traffic officers can crack down on scofflaw bus drivers. While lawfully riding a bicycle in San Diego last year I was nearly hit broadside by a bus whose driver ran a red light directly in front of me while I was crossing University Avenue at Utah Street with a green light.
Unfortunately, one doesn't notice the law-abiding cyclists, just as one doesn't notice careful and considerate drivers of commercial vehicles.
San Diego
Bicyclists need to be respectful of others using the same streets as autos. My wife and I bike along Pacific Coast Highway in Carlsbad where there is a wide bike lane in both directions. Last weekend a large group of cyclists took up not only the bike lane but most of the right hand car lane because they refused to ride only two abreast. This was selfish behavior.
I don't think the police issuing more tickets will stop the father with his child on his bike from cutting around the barrier or ignoring the lights and bells at the track crossing. Hopefully his injury and loss of his child's life will be an effective deterrent to others.
However, the issue of crashes caused by motorists to us on two wheels is a different story. Here the typical story reads, "Officer, I just didn't see the person on the bike." Implication: It is their fault, not mine.
Accountability is key. Until people are held responsible for their actions and punished, abhorrent behavior will continue.
HAROLD LaBONTE
Trivial trillions?
On Aug. 22 you published "Projected 10-year deficit: $9 trillion." But the story was on page A3. Why wasn't an article that describes the largest deficit in the history of mankind placed on the front page under very large type? How could the Union-Tribune not prioritize a situation that could bankrupt the country? Do you really believe that every article on the front page that day was more important?

We're lucky to have fine trauma centers
Sunday's article regarding the trauma centers of San Diego County was very much a reality in my life. I wouldn't be sitting here writing this letter had it not been for the quick assessment and action of an off-duty Kaiser nurse saying there was a trauma problem — call 911 — and the paramedics being there so very quickly. After a quick ride from Santee Lakes Park to Sharp Memorial Hospital Trauma Center, the trauma team was there and ready once again to save someone's life. This time it was mine, even though they almost lost me twice during the four-hour operation.
I was awake enough when I arrived there to hear my nurse daughter tell me that I had the best trauma team in San Diego County and I was in good hands.
It was three months ago this week. I am making great progress even though slower than I would wish. Without the trauma center, I would not have made it at all.
Thank you, San Diego County, for putting in place these centers which have saved so many lives.

A dangerous practice
Your front-page photo of a woman engaging in an illegal and dangerous activity at Sunset Cliffs ("Take a step off the beaten path," Aug. 22) is completely irresponsible. How many people will look at that picture and say to themselves, "Cool! I'm going to do that too?" Sooner or later, someone jumping off the cliffs is going to sustain a grave injury. You do no one a favor by printing that picture, certainly not the lifeguards, the park service, nor the police.

Insurers can stop cell phone drivers
People will continue to drive and use their cell phones regardless of how many laws are passed, state or federal. Until automobile insurance companies start to deny claims for accidents that happen while driving and talking on a cell phone, other than 911 calls. It's as simple as that.
Insurance companies, "Wake up." You would be saving a bundle in claims when the driver is at fault using a cell phone. Not only dollars but many lives would be saved.
November is around the corner, which is the month most policies are renewed. The ball is in your court. Take the lead and make our roads safer for everyone.

E-Cadherin (24E10) Rabbit mAb detects endogenous levels of total E-cadherin protein. The antibody does not cross-react with related family members, such as N-cadherin.Species Reactivity: Human, Mouse Species predicted to react based on 100% sequence homology: Bovine, Dog, Pig
Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to the sequence surrounding residue 780 of human E-cadherin. The antibody was conjugated to Alexa Fluor® 488 under optimal conditions with an F/P ratio of 2-6.
This Cell Signaling Technology antibody is conjugated to Alexa Fluor® 488 fluorescent dye and tested in-house for direct flow cytometry and immunofluorescent analysis in human cells. The antibody is expected to exhibit the same species cross-reactivity as the unconjugated E-Cadherin (24E10) Rabbit mAb #3195.
Cadherins are a superfamily of transmembrane glycoproteins that contain cadherin repeats of approximately 100 residues in their extracellular domain. Cadherins mediate calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion and play critical roles in normal tissue development (1). The classic cadherin subfamily includes N-, P-, R-, B-, and E-cadherins, as well as about ten other members that are found in adherens junctions, a cellular structure near the apical surface of polarized epithelial cells. The cytoplasmic domain of classical cadherins interacts with β-catenin, γ-catenin (also called plakoglobin), and p120 catenin. β-catenin and γ-catenin associate with α-catenin, which links the cadherin-catenin complex to the actin cytoskeleton (1,2). While β- and γ-catenin play structural roles in the junctional complex, p120 regulates cadherin adhesive activity and trafficking (1-4). Investigators consider E-cadherin an active suppressor of invasion and growth of many epithelial cancers (1-3). Research studies indicate that cancer cells have up-regulated N-cadherin in addition to loss of E-cadherin. This change in cadherin expression is called the "cadherin switch". N-cadherin cooperates with the FGF receptor, leading to overexpression of MMP-9 and cellular invasion (3). Research studies have shown that in endothelial cells, VE-cadherin signaling, expression, and localization correlate with vascular permeability and tumor angiogenesis (5,6). Investigators have also demonstrated that expression of P-cadherin, which is normally present in epithelial cells, is also altered in ovarian and other human cancers (7,8).

Review of "Bosch SGV53E33GB"
For more-extensive and carefully thought out movie reviews, check out my film blog, it's honestly the best thing anyone's ever done: http://blogs.examiner.co.uk/moviesfilmscinema/ . For the same reviews under a different name, see me on dooyoo.
"Great device"
Personally, I never saw the point of dishwashers before - it felt like an expensive and lazy machine to have in your possession. It turns out I was wrong, as owning a dishwasher can be an incredibly time-saving thing and this particular make is one of the best ways to go about it.What always gets me about big machinery like this is that they can sometimes come too large and make far too much noise. Clearly, this being a dishwasher, it was always going to be a large machine or it simply wouldn't be very useful at all, but the noise on this machine is very low, which is a huge bonus for me as it can be very annoying when a dishwasher or washing machine is heard making a giant din from the other end of your house. The largeness of the machine is also no problem as you can fit a heck of a lot of plates, cups etc into it. It certainly looks good, too; something can perform well but if it doesn't look modern and stylish it can be a detriment to the look of your house. Fortunately this one is easy on the eye.
The dishwasher itself works very well indeed. Obviously not all dishwashers can eradicate all dirt 100% of the time, and this one follows that pattern, but this one comes pretty close anyway. I'm not sure how increasingly inefficient it may become over time - we haven't owned this for long in our household - but right now it does its job extremely well. Its speed is good too - if you manage to fill the machine up, the amount of stuff in there would take far longer to wash by hand.This dishwasher is definitely an expensive product, but then again I'm no expert, and there don't appear to be many dishwashers that you can find cheap anyway. At least I can't say you won't be paying needlessly - this is certainly a reliable machine, and one with which I've yet to encounter any faults, apart from the very minor one (and one which is typical of all dishwashers) aforementioned. If you can find this for a good price - apparently around £350 is its best price at the moment, which is admittedly a bit steep - then I definitely recommend the purchase.

Different prices on products based on role
Hi I have a customer with a strange request. They would like to have different customer prices based on whether the customer is in a customer/tier1 or tier2 role in wordpress. The dynamic pricing would be ideal for this, however, they want to individually set the price on each product in the database (several thousand) for the standard price, the tier one price and the tier2 price. I can imagine this is possible but probably I will have to write a plugin that does this. I just wondered if you could give me an insight in to the best way to approach this and where to look in the code in order to get the price of a product and change it based on role. I struggle to follow everything that is going on in the woocommerce code and feel like I may miss something important.

Top Tips for Moving and Storing a Wine Collection
I started collecting wine about five years ago to impress my then girlfriend (now wife), who wasn't impressed by frequenting NYC's pub scene. On trips and weekend getaways, we started visiting wineries and found ourselves joining wine clubs that would ship us a case or two of wine over the course of the year. My taste for beers with the boys was soon overcome by my love for wine with the wife; it was a new passion the two of us could pursue together.
Owning an extensive wine collection is the ultimate accomplishment for wine connoisseurs. Though I wouldn't call myself a connoisseur, we have accumulated quite an extensive wine collection over the last few years. While it's convenient to keep a few bottles chilled in your fridge, storing an entire collection in your home (especially in New York City) is nearly impossible. If you're someone, like me, who's struggling to keep a sizable collection at home, it might be time to relocate your bottles to a storage facility. To help with the transition, here are a few tips for safely moving and storing a wine collection.
Research Professional Shipping Companies
It can be tempting to ship your wine through FedEx or UPS, but it's important to note that these companies only accept wine shipments from licensed shippers. This means that your package could be misplaced or thrown out if not mailed correctly. However, when you work with a professional shipping company, they can help you with every aspect of the mailing process. Make sure that you thoroughly research several companies to see which one will best fit your needs.
Take Inventory
To ensure that nothing gets lost or misplaced while packing or moving, take inventory of your entire wine collection. Be sure to note the number of bottles and brands of wine you have by making a list or creating a template. It's also a good idea to categorize the different bottles before packing and storing them.
Find the Right Storage Facility
There are many different NYC storage facilities you can use to store your wine collection, and it's best to do your research before picking one out. The most important thing you'll need to look for in a storage unit is temperature and humidity control, to ensure the quality and safety of your wine collection. If a company doesn't offer climate control services, it might be good to invest in a humidifier or dehumidifier, depending on the air. Some storage companies might also provide services to move the wine for you, which could save you a lot of time and stress.
Pack for the Move
When packing up a wine collection, make sure you leave yourself a whole day or two for the packing process, as you don't want to rush and accidentally damage or break a bottle. To begin, make sure that each bottle is clean and dust-free, which will prevent the risk of mold from building up on the glass surface. It's best to clean with a dry cloth or feather duster to keep moisture away from the bottle. Then, wrap each bottle with polystyrene or bubble wrap, making sure that all surfaces are covered. The moving company I used, imperialmovers.com, recommended placing the bottles in a cardboard box with individual inserts to keep them from jostling during transport. If you're looking for an all-in-one NYC moving and storage company, I highly recommend these guys. They picked up our boxes and moved them to climate-controlled storage for free when we signed a storage contract.
Store at the Right Angle
While it's important to store your wine away from light and at the proper temperature, it's also crucial to store each bottle at the ideal angle. Place bottles with corks at a slight angle with the label facing up and the cork facing down. This will allow you to read a label without moving a bottle, keep the corks wet by the wine, and will prevent the bottles from falling.

These easy no bake peanut butter balls are the ticket to a sweet no bake treat for the whole family. We are big fans of everything peanut butter and chocolate around here, this version has rice krispies in them because we love the crispy texture they add. That peanut butter and chocolate combination is a match made in sweet tooth heaven. We're all about the easiest way to satisfy that craving!
Here's the ingredient line up. You can use milk chocolate or semi sweet chocolate chips for these. We used semi sweet chocolate chips and milk chocolate chips, it's up to you and which kind of chocolate you prefer.
Here's a bit of the step by step. You can use an ice cream scoop to get uniform sized balls or just your hands to make perfectly round balls. We used a wooden skewer to dip them into the melted chocolate to keep our hands clean. You could also try lining up all the peanut butter balls on a cooling rack and pouring the chocolate over the top. It's like my chocolate dream!
- 1 cup creamy (or crunchy) peanut butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 Tbsp melted butter
- 1½ cup crushed crisped rice cereal( measure out then crush)
- 1½ cup chocolate chips (milk or semisweet)
- Mix peanut butter and melted butter together in a large bowl.
- Add the powdered sugar and rice krispies.
- Mix until combined. Form the mixture into one inch balls.
- Place the formed balls on a wax paper lined baking tray and chill in the refrigerator
- for at least 30 minutes before dipping into the melted chocolate.
- Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave by heating for 30 seconds then stirring and repeating process until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
- Place a toothpick or wooden skewer in each peanut butter ball and dip each peanut butter ball into the melted chocolate and roll around until completely covered.
- Place the chocolate covered ball on a separate cookie sheet lined with wax paper.
- Remove the toothpicks from each peanut butter ball.
- Place the balls back in the freezer to let the chocolate set. It should take an hour or two.
- These are best stored in the freezer. If you store them in the fridge, they will be slightly soft.
They're so addicting! If you make them smaller you can eat more with less guilt. 😉

it's an internet thing!
it's an internet thing!

Xtra Factor host Caroline Flack has received death threats over her rumoured relationship with One Direction singer Harry Styles.
The 32-year-old presenter has been romantically linked to the Gotta Be You singer since last month when the pair shared a kiss at a party.
A source said at the time:
"They had a big passionate snog and it caused mild hysterics with the group of people they were with."
It was reported this week that they had been on a date to a London restaurant, allegedly leaving together in the same car.
Flack has now taken to Twitter to deny speculation and defend herself against death threats from One Direction fans, posting:
"Hi one direction fans! To clarify. I'm close friends with Harry. He's one of the nicest people I know...I don't deserve death threats. :) x"
Flack previously admitted to being embarrassed by the drunken snog with the One Direction singer, while Styles said:
"It was a bit misconstrued... it wasn't like that."
A friend apparently told Heat magazine:
"It was just a drunken snog and nothing else. She's been trying to forget about it."
Caroline presents the Xtra Factor on ITV2 alongside former X Factor contestant, Olly Murs.

Stress may be a contributing factor, however race really has nothing to do with it. At least 25% of all women will be affected by Fibroids at some point during their lifetime. Overweight and Obese women are even more susceptible and have a substantially higher risk of developing Fibroids.

Not sure. I imagine most health problems can be blamed on stress to some extent. However it's how one handles stress that determines their well being.
Very few issues are a matter of "life and death" and yet so many people internalize their present circumstances as if it's a life sentence. This is one of the reasons why so many therapists are advising people to find time to calm down and meditate a few minutes each day. If you can't do anything about a situation there's not much sense dwelling on it.

I do not know your definition of black women, but if Indian women are included, I would say 'Yes', it could be.
During social interaction I have come across 2-3 or more women in their 20's & 30's who were diagnosed with Fibroids. One of them was teaching in the university and the other, a Computer Science engineer, working in the sector. The former underwent medication for a short while and is okay. The latter underwent Homeopathy treatment (quite popular in India) and has a 5 year old son. She is now also expecting a second child.
But, yes the young women are facing a lot of stress, balancing home & work.

I doubt it. I had fibroids at the ripe old age of 29, even though I've never been pregnant. I've had a lot of stress in my life, but I doubt it was as bad as girls who got pregnant in high school, and went on to become welfare mothers. Besides, the average age for women to get fibroids is 35. My roommate in the hospital was a 36-year-old white woman who had 2 kids.
I understand while fibroids are more prominent in black women, white women are more prone to endometriosis (which I personally find worse). I had a white male roommate whose 19 year old daughter had endometriosis. Childbirth is supposed to solve that problem; she married and immediately got pregnant, giving birth to twins. On the other hand, I had a middle-aged co-worker, a white woman, who'd had 3 kids, and the endometriosis kept returning. She finally solved the problem by getting a hysterectomy.
"And what do Asian women get?" asked a Chinese co-worker, with whom I discussed the issue. "Nothing! They just screw up the curve on math scores!" I answered jokingly. Then she informed me they're more prone to cancer. Her mother had been deceived by her doctor into losing a baby by getting treatment for cancer.
There are no perfect races; everyone is prone to something.

Sweeping Buyout Planned at GM by Joseph Szczesny (3/24/2006)
UAW agrees to cuts at company, Delphi.
GM, UAW Reach Delphi Deal by TCC Team
Sweeping buyouts to help GM right Delphi, job cuts.
The bankrupt Delphi Corp. faces some critical choices this week as the deadline for revising its labor agreement with the United Auto Workers fast approaches.
Even though the UAW has agreed to a buyout deal, Delphi still has to come to an agreement with the UAW and the other unions on revisions to the existing contracts on wages and benefits. Robert 'Steve' Miller, Delphi's chairman and chief executive officer, said last month that if there is no deadline by March 30 he would have no choice but to petition the bankruptcy judge to have the existing contracts set aside.
Meanwhile, UAW officials from
president Ron Gettelfinger on down have been signaling for past couple of weeks
there was no way they could meet the deadline imposed by Miller. The UAW, with
help from GM, did succeed in negotiating a buyout agreement that will allow some
13,000 UAW members employed by Delphi to retire or quit with a cash settlement
of between $70,000 and $140,000. In addition, Delphi also appears to be on verge
of buyout agreements with two other unions, the IUE-CWA and United Steel
Workers, that would help it eliminate the jobs of another 4000 blue-collar
workers, meaning that Delphi is on the verge of cutting its blue-collar
workforce by more than half.
In addition, another 5000 UAW
members could be eligible to transfer back to GM, meaning another large cut in
the size of Delphi's workforce to around 10,000 to 12,000 workers after
Delphi says it will still need to
reduce the wages of the workers left behind after the buyouts take hold. The
discussions with the unions on the second part of Delphi's turnaround equation
are still underway. Lindsey Williams, a Delphi spokesman, emphasized the
discussions on new contracts have never really stopped and the company still
wants them wrapped up this week. Delphi's position is that it will go to court
with the petition if there is no agreement, Williams said.
Miller could use the buyout
agreement as symbol of the good faith and sound judgment on the part of the
unions, and delay the filing of the petition asking for the judge to terminate
the existing labor agreement. This is the course that the unions — and General
Motors, which is also participating in the talks — seem to prefer.
However, Delphi is losing
something like $125 million per month and judging from the financial report for
January that it filed with the bankruptcy court, its overseas operations are not
all that robust right now. In addition, Miller has basically said this was the
final deadline and already is coming under fire from hedge fund managers who
suggest he is letting the union call the shots in the company's restructuring.
Miller, who has cast himself as the savior of the American auto industry,
enjoyed the tough-guy role he played last fall and probably doesn't want to be
reduced to the role of paper tiger or just another spear-carrier in GM's
operatic restructuring.
On the other hand, filing the
petition for contract relief with the bankruptcy judge could disrupt the
delicate discussions that are now underway. At the very least, the unions will
be required to halt the negotiations at least for a few days.

Green Screen Studio*No Overtime*24 Hour Access*Free Re Shoot Day
How To Do It Yourself: Green Screen Studios
Did you know the easy way that film directors manage to form stunning visuals on screen which you would never, for the life of you, see naturally in real life? They make use of green screen terraces to achieve the effect. What is green screening? Green screening is known by lots of other names. Some of those names include chroma keying, blue screening or color-keying.
It is naturally safe to assume that green screen studios make use of green screening or chroma keying to achieve the specified effect. Green Screening is a technique used in video production whereby a background will be superimposed onto another background so that the foreground image will be seen with the new background. How does it work? Let us take for example the entire process of shooting a video. You've got your subject to perform whatever actions you need in front of a green screen.
After the shoot, the video will go thru post-processing and the green or blue screen will be substituted for a picture or another video. In effect, you will have your subject or your actor moving and acting in whatever sort of environment you would like. Preparing the video to put in the green screen is another story altogether though. The most typical application of this technology is through the weather report system. The weatherman stands in front of a green screen and describes what the weather will be like for the next couple of days. The animated representations of the map and the storms and hurricanes which will plague different areas are a product of substituting the green screen with an mpeg of the map.
There are a couple of things to consider when you're using green screen apartments. First would be the space. The usual problem for filmmakers when using the green screen is that the space is too limited and the lighting is too uneven. This is the reason why it is tantamount to your success to find green screen apartments that are huge and permit maximum mobility.
Another issue that you're going to come across with using green screen studios is the incompetent lighting. It is important that light is spread evenly in across the background if you need a smooth, fluid movement dancing in your screen. Correctly measure the distance that you will cover and the area of the green screen studio that you will use and you cannot get it wrong.
There are so many other websites offering various forms of advice on how to use green screen but a lot of them are not very specific or concise. Before following these, make sure to check my own articles and reviews on Green Screen and Green Screen Studios, additionally, you can reach me at firstname.lastname@example.com or 1-323-851-3825

Everyone loves totems.
We don't think there's a festival-goer who didn't get their picture taken with at least one. Everyone remembers Crazy Eyes, or Bob Saget, or the "Free Hugs" guy. Totems are a big part of festival life, and we want to encourage everyone to make them, bring them, and share them with us.
We realize, however, that the totem policy may seem a bit confusing. Some totems aren't allowed into the festival, while others are. Our policy has always been to give decision making on totems to the security staff at the gates. It may seem arbitrary at times, but we trust them to make case by case decisions on what's in the best interest of all guests.
With that in mind, and to encourage people to be creative, we're offering some tips on the best way to get your totems into the festival:
- Make sure your totem is size appropriate. Larger totems that may be unwieldy, or block people's view, are discouraged.
- Totems with sharp sticks, or edges that could be dangerous, are a red flag to security.
- Totems that have spaces or voids that security can't see into are discouraged.
- Totems over twelve feet tall are a no-go.
- Any moving parts, electronics or lights that can fall off easily will make it more difficult to get your totem in.
- PLEASE don't use real humans for totems. While they may be in on the joke at first, the low pay and inhumane conditions wears on them after a while.
And while we love creativity, We think it goes without saying that totems that are derogatory or inflammatory are also discouraged. Keep it fun and positive!
We really want to encourage everyone to be creative and show off their totems this year. Be on the look out for more totem-based posts as the festival gets closer. So, get out your foam core and your ironic TV references and get busy creating! We can't wait to get our picture taken with you and your creations this June.

Beaches of Cuba
Cuba is world-famous for its beaches and seaside resorts. Its coastline is blessed with countless talcum-white beaches with butter-soft sand and bowing coconut palms, gently lapped by the warm, crystal blue waters of the Caribbean Sea. Surrounding the island is one of the largest coral reefs in the world, perfect for snorkelling and scuba diving. Esencia can help you discover the best beaches in Cuba and the most enthralling water-based experiences the island has to offer by putting together a tailor-made Cuba beach holiday package.
One of our top beach choices is Playa Ancón, a precious ribbon of soft, white sand stretching nearly three miles and often described as the finest arc of sand on Cuba's southern coastline. It's guarded by the historic town of Trinidad, with its charming cobbled streets, sprawling colonial palaces and plazas and hot Latin American rhythms. Nearby is Casilda Bay, a hotspot for snorkelers and divers.
One of the best beach resorts in Cuba is Varadero, with its warm cerulean waters, swaying palms and more than 20 kilometres of shimmering white sand. Here you can find an abundance of watersports opportunities and dine at Al Capone's house, a cute cottage that sits on Varadero's longest strip of sand.
Those in search of respite can sail to the tip of Cayo Jutías to mingle with colonies of giant orange starfish, or soak up the Caribbean sun on its three-kilometre blanket of mangrove-dappled sand. Then there's the many beautiful islets sprinkled along Cuba's northern coastline, such as Cayo Coco. Known for its resort hotels and long beaches, Cayo Coco was a hideout for buccaneers in the early colonial period and is famous for the large flocks of pink flamingos that live in its shallow waters. You could also hop on a catamaran to the idyllic and sparsely populated Cayo Media Luna for a pleasantly secluded sunbathe, snorkel and seafood lunch.
And if you're looking for something a little different from Cuba's white sand beaches, the pretty village of Baracoa is home to unusually dark and velvety sands, guarded by mangroves and verdant jungle.
These are a mere fraction of the beach resorts in Cuba that await you. And whatever you're into — sunbathing, watersports or snorkelling in coral-rich seas — Esencia Experiences will create the best beach holiday in Cuba you'll ever have.
For more luxury experiences on the beaches of Cuba, take a look at our Havana beach golf holiday packages.

Council calls for 'wet canteens' in communities
Alice Springs' deputy mayor says that if alcohol was allowed in remote communities it would stop people from having to come to town to drink.
Alderman Brendan Heenan is calling for "wet canteens" to be established in communities, allowing people to have a drink with a meal.
His proposal comes in response to new designated area rules which come into effect today, giving police power to ban drunk people from the Alice Springs CBD for 48 hours.
He says the rules do not address the real issues.
"With the support of the communities as well. The Aboriginal communities we need that support to have the wet canteens out on communities. It also employs people," he said.
"And if you get meals there as well. Young kids can have a meal. The family can have a meal together - sit down and have a meal together, and have a beer together."
