Why 600g Towels
During these austere times it must be tempting for hotels to consider cheaper alternatives for their towelling products, but will this decision pay in the long term?
The person who really matters in this decision is the hotel guest. Amongst the many things that create the right experience for hotel guests are the towels. People expect their hotels to provide soft sumptuous towels that exude luxury even though they are subjected to wash after wash. How many times have you been disappointed by the quality of towels during hotel visits? It's not an area where quality should be compromised. At the very least you expect a hotel towel to be the same quality as one you would use at home.
The first question often asked is what weight of towel is best? Towels are measured by GSM: Grams per Square Metre which is the density of the towel (This is the accepted standard. Towels and bathrobes typically vary from 300 to 800 GSM; other fabrics may have values as low as 100 GSM). But, in the view of the leading hotel supplier King of Cotton, 600gsm is the ideal weight for a hotel to balance softness and absorbency at a cost effective price. But weight is only important if the cotton is of a premium quality and this has to do with the length of the fibre, otherwise known as the staple. Staple length is a term referring to the average length of a group of fibres of any composition. The staple depends on the origin of the fibres. Natural fibres, such as cotton or wool have a range of lengths in each sample, so the staple length is an average.
King of Cotton has many years of experience in supplying towels to hotels including leading Five Star establishments. Of the numerous ranges they offer, the 600 gsm premium Terry towelling range is the one they recommend to hotels for the right balance of luxury and longevity. And at just £8.60 for a bath towel they are proof that hotels do not need to scrimp to maintain quality.
King of Cotton consider this towel to be the top of the range contract towel for the superior establishment. This product is used in some of the finest Five Star Hotels in the World. Made from Premium quality cotton yarn, thick pile. It's a soft, strong and hard wearing towel. Available in white and with King of Cotton's embroidery service at competitive corporate rates it's a choice that's easy to make.

Iced Watermelon Drinks - In the Pink for Foodie Friday and Pink Saturday
From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...For years we thought that watermelon was a source of empty calories. Advances in food science and nutrition have proved that not to be the case. While the typical melon is 92% water we've learned that it also contains nutrients, vitamins and minerals. Best of all, it's low in calories and is no longer just a summer food; it's available year-round and, especially important to green kitchens, almost every part of it is edible. I decided it was time to revisit the watermelon. My culinary adventure worked its way through salads and salsas before moving on to sorbets and smoothies. While experimenting with a slushie, I started to think of summer drinks so cold they could quench the thirst of the steamiest summer day. I did a little searching and with the help of Eating Well Recipes I was able to find two recipes that could do just that. One contains alcohol, the other doesn't. Both are gorgeous to look at and when served icy cold they're potential rivals for iced tea and lemonade. Because melons vary in their sweetness, you'll want to adjust sugar content as you go along. The small amount of sugar in these recipes may not be sufficient to your taste. Add more if needed, but do it cautiously. While you can put more in, you can't take it out. I like both these recipes and will prepare them often this summer. I serve them with cubed frozen watermelon instead of ice. A truc to share; use pitchers of different shapes to store alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, so there'll be no surprises as the day wears on.
Watermelon Agua Fresca...from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite
8 cups cubed seeded watermelon (about 6 pounds with the rind), divided
1 cup water, divided
1/3 cup sugar, divided
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
4 cups club soda or seltzer water, well chilled
Lime slices or mint for garnish (optional)
1) Combine half the watermelon, half the water and half the sugar in a blender; puree. Pour through a coarse strainer into a large container. Repeat with the remaining watermelon, water and sugar. Stir in lime juice. Refrigerate until well chilled, about 4 hours.
2) To serve, stir in club soda (or seltzer) and garnish with lime. Yield: 10 cups.
Cook's Note: Watermelon base may be refrigerated for up to 2 days.
Watermelon Gin Fizz...from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite
5 cups diced watermelon, divided
6 ounces gin, divided
8 tablespoons lime juice, divided
1-1/3 cups ginger ale, divided
Lime wedges or mint for garnish
1) Freeze 1 cup watermelon for garnish. Puree the remaining 4 cups watermelon. Strain; divide the juice among 4 ice-filled glasses.
2) Top each with 1 1/2 ounces gin, 2 tablespoons lime juice and 1/3 cup ginger ale. Garnish with the frozen watermelon and mint or lime wedges. Yield: 4 servings.
I'm sending this recipe to Michael at Designs By Gollum for Foodie Friday, the event she sponsors.
I'm also sending it to Beverly at How Sweet the Sound for her Pink Saturday Event.

There are 10,000 people who are turning 65 each and every day (Pew Research Center), and we are rapidly approaching a time where nearly 50% of the population will be 65 or older. Together, we can end the silence of elder abuse by standing united and raising our voices against this growing problem.
Show your support in this movement, by pledging to end the silence, raising awareness in your community, and speaking up against elder abuse.

'Disaster tourists' bring gawking and ethical questions to Sandy-hit areas
| New York
Garbage trucks, hulking military vehicles and mud-caked cars move slowly through a Staten Island waterfront neighborhood still reeling from Superstorm Sandy's storm surge. Then comes an outlier: a spotless SUV with three passengers peering out windows at a mangled home choked with sea grass.
Residents recognize the occupants right away. They're disaster tourists, people drawn to the scene of a tragedy to glimpse the pictures they've seen on television come to life.
Two weeks after the superstorm socked the region, cleanup continues in New York and New Jersey, which bore the brunt of the destruction. At its peak, the storm knocked out power to 8.5 million in 10 states, and some during a later nor'easter. About 73,000 utility customers in New York and New Jersey remained without power late Sunday, most of them on Long Island.
But the storm didn't just bring darkness and despair; it also brought the gawkers.
"It's a little annoying," said Chris Nasella, who paused as he finished cleaning up a home reduced to a shell on the first floor. "By the same token, I would do it, too. I don't think anyone wouldn't want to look at boats that are picked up and left on the streets. As long as you don't get a kick out of it, it's an amazing thing."
There weren't many tourists in Nasella's neighborhood on Saturday. Cleanup crews had done some extensive work. The neighborhood is only accessible through streets clogged with idled cars in gas lines and traffic made deliberate by still-powerless traffic signals.
But they left an impression.
"The gawking was amazing last week," said Joanne McClenin, whose home was filled with water five feet high on the night Sandy came ashore. "It was kind of offensive as a homeowner, because I felt violated."
As the power outages on Long Island drag on, New Yorkers railed Sunday against the utility that has lagged behind others in restoring power, criticizing its slow pace as well as a dearth of information.
Separately, U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano visited with disaster-relief workers Sunday in Staten Island's Midland Beach neighborhood, which is still devastated two weeks after Sandy hit.
The lack of power restoration for a relative few in the densely populated region at the heart of the storm reinforced Sandy's fractured effect on the area: tragic and vicious to some, merely a nuisance to others.
Perhaps none of the utilities have drawn criticism as widespread, or as harsh, as the Long Island Power Authority. Nearly 67,000 of the homes and businesses it serves were still without power late Sunday. That was almost all of the remaining outages in New York state.
"We certainly understand the frustration that's out there," LIPA's chief operating officer, Michael Hervey, said in a conference call late Sunday. But, he said, the storm had been worse than expected, no utility had as many workers in place beforehand as it would have liked, and the power was coming back rapidly "compared to the damage that's been incurred."
"I was so disgusted the other night," said Carrie Baram, 56, of Baldwin Harbor, who said she calls the utility three times a day. "I was up till midnight, but nobody bothered to answer the telephone."
LIPA has said it knows that customers aren't getting the information they need, partly because of an outdated information technology system that it is updating. Sunday, executives said they were working on setting up information centers near the most heavily damaged areas. The company also said it had deployed 6,400 linemen to work on restoring power, compared to 200 on a normal day.
"'They're working on it, they're working on it' — that would be their common response," Nassau County Executive Ed Mangano said Sunday, describing LIPA's interaction with his office.
He said LIPA had failed to answer even simple questions from its customers and that Sandy's magnitude wasn't an excuse.
On Staten Island, Napolitano said "a lot of progress" had been made since the storm hit and especially since her last visit 10 days earlier.
"It seems like a different place," she said. "You can really tell the difference."
But, she added, there was a lot more to do. "The last big chunk" to solve, she said, is the question of how quickly power can be returned to thousands of homes without it.
If homes are not inhabitable even after power returns, she said, the government is finding temporary apartments and hotels where evacuees can stay — preferably in the same community so kids can continue going to the same schools.
On Staten Island's streets, many of the volunteers who carried garbage cans and shovels, or pushed grocery carts filled with supplied carried mobile phones with them and, like Chelsea Chan, paused to take pictures of the damage. Chan said she was taking the pictures for her father who was in another part of New York City and unable to see the damage for himself.
Seaver Avenue on Staten Island was sloppy with mud, sand and curbside mounds of couches, personal photos, mattresses and sodden sheetrock. Mickey Merrell's front porch was askew, and the storm surge nearly knocked a neighbor's house into hers. Across the street a house was washed off its foundation. It was a scene of human misery — and one of New York City's new attractions, just like the construction crane that collapsed and dangled precariously high above mid-town Manhattan on Oct. 29.
"Sometimes it's like we're at the zoo," Merrell said. "So many people come and stop and stare at this place."
Michelle Van Tassel, a Staten Island resident who has friends who lost everything, said she tried to deliver supplies but couldn't get through because there were so many people on the street who had no business being there.
"There were a tremendous amount of people who came into the borough to take pictures, to look at the devastation themselves, and it seemed like more of a tourist attraction down there than it actually felt like people who were trying to help," she said, her voice breaking.
Peter Lisi, a renter who is fighting a landlord trying to evict him from his damaged home, said he doesn't mind the gawkers, "as long as they're not making fun." Some of them are drawn in to what's happening and help, he said.
Domenick and Kim Barone said they could tell the tourists apart from the volunteers because the gawkers' clothes and shoes are clean, and they're often snapping pictures.
"Obviously they have nothing else to do," Kim Barone said. "If this is their source of entertainment, to wallow in other people's despair, I don't have the time. I'm trying just to clean out and save what I can save. I don't really have the time to worry about them."

Roofer Margate
How to find a good and affordable roofer in Margate?
There are quite a few roofing companies in Margate. Most of them are eager to deliver a good job but once in a while you'll find a roofing company that needs to be avoided. We will try through this article to help you make an informed decision and to help you in your research for a good roofer. Considering that your roof is the most important part of your home or business and that it is the only and last protection between you and the elements, we know that you should choose a roofer which you trust. Knowing what questions to ask and how to assess a roofer professionalism and effectiveness is key to a successful roofing repair or roofing installation job. SoFlo Roofing is glad to share this information with you and we hope that your next roofing job in Margate will be handled in the most honest and professional way.
The Roofer Language
The first thing you want to ask your roofer is "are you a licensed roofer in the state of Florida?". Your roofer should be able to provide you with a copy of his roofer license or at least to provide you with his license number. His license number should start with "CCC". You can then visit the DBPR (Department of Business and Professional Regulation) website and enter the license number in the search field. The status column will tell you if the roofer's license is Active and in good standing. By clicking on the Name of the Roofing Company, you can also check on complaints if any have been filed against the roofer and how it has been handled. The Better Business Bureau website is also a good place to check on the reputation of the roofer. Having a few bad reviews is not necessarily a sign that you shouldn't hire a roofer. As you cannot please everybody, the most important thing is if and how the roofer has handled the complains and if he was able to fix things and to turn an unhappy customer into a happy one. If you are dealing with a reputable roofer in Margate, he shouldn't have any problem sharing this information with you.
Tips to select a good roofer in Margate
Ask your Margate roofer's labor cost
Another question to ask your roofer is "Will you provide me with a detailed estimate?". Your roofer should provide you with a precise estimate of the scope of the repair or installation that he will be hired to perform, especially if you are dealing with a roof leak or a waterproofing your roof. Your roofer's estimate should include the cost of labor and the price of the material that will be needed if any. Some roofers in Margate will charge you a global price for labor while some will charge you an hourly fee. Regardless, it should be clear to you what the cost of labor will be. Also, note that some roofers will charge you a service call fee. This service call fee should be waived if you accept his estimate and hire him to perform the roofing job. It makes no sense for you to have to pay a roofer for both a service call and for the roofing job itself. Ask your Margate roofer to waive the service call fee if you think that his estimate makes sense.
Ask your roofer about the parts he uses
A very important part of the equation is the type of parts that your roofer is planning on using. Ask for OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts, especially for roofing shingles, roof ventilation, slate roofing. Those are materials that if provided by top roofing manufacturers like TruSlate® or Timberline® should provide you years of enjoyment and safety. if installed professionally, high-end materials guaranty that those parts will fit and are made to be compatible with your current or future roofing installation. In addition you will have a warranty on these parts in case they should deteriorate prematurely or break within typically 1 year.
We hope that we provided you with some valuable tips that will make choosing a good roofer in Margate. If you have any more questions or are in need of any advice, please call one of our friendly roofers at 305-842-3046.

text: Main Content Initiatives What is an Initiative? An initiative is a proposal to amend state law that the people of this state invoke by petition. The initiative process is detailed in section 9 of article 2 of the state constitution of 1963, which provides, in part: Any law proposed by initiative petition shall be either enacted or rejected by the legislature without change or amendment within 40 session days from the time such petition is received by the legislature. If any law proposed by such petition shall be enacted by the legislature it shall be subject to referendum, as hereinafter provided. If the law so proposed is not enacted by the legislature within the 40 days, the state officer authorized by law shall submit such proposed law to the people for approval or rejection at the next general election. The legislature may reject any measure so proposed by initiative petition and propose a different measure upon the same subject by a yea and nay vote upon separate roll calls, and in such event both measures shall be submitted by such state officer to the electors for approval or rejection at the next general election. What is an Alternative Measure? (Not available for all Initiatives) If the Legislature rejects a law proposed by initiative petition, the Legislature may propose a different ("alternative") measure upon the same subject as provided in Article 2, Section 9, of the Michigan Constitution of 1963. An alternative measure shall be labeled "Alternative Measure No. ___ to a law proposed by Initiative Petition". An alternative measure shall not be considered for a second reading in either house unless a law proposed by initiative petition has been rejected by a house. An alternative measure shall require a majority vote of the members elected and serving in each house for adoption, and the vote shall be by record roll call.

The goals of this course are to develop the student's critical thinking skills, global awareness, and ability to work as an integral part of a team in an increasingly complex global job market. The course provides a foundation in such skills as team building, collaboration, and elevated empathy using real-world scenarios from some of world's most effective collaborative projects including the Earthrise-2068 Project. Living on the International Space Station was a powerful, transformative experience'one that could hold the key to solving our problems here on Earth. On space walks and through windows, course instructor Ron Garan was struck by the stunning beauty of the Earth from space but sobered by knowing how much needed to be done to help this troubled planet.
And yet on the International Space Station, Garan, a former fighter pilot, was working work side by side with Russians, who only a few years before were 'the enemy.' If fifteen nations could collaborate on one of the most ambitious, technologically complicated undertakings in history, surely we can apply that kind of cooperation and innovation toward creating a better world.
Interested in what the future will bring? Download our 2023 Technology Trends eBook for free.
In this course Garan will convey what it was like learning to work with a diverse group of people in an environment only a handful of human beings have ever known.
But more importantly, the course will address how we can apply the orbital perspective here at home, embracing new partnerships and processes to promote peace and combat hunger, thirst, poverty, and environmental destruction. This course is a call to action for each of us to care for the most important space station of all: planet Earth. The course will also involve participation in the Earthrise-2068 project. Working with people from around the world, students will help craft a vision of our future in the year 2068. Students will also help craft a crowdsource strategy for both the co-envisioned future of the world in 2068 and a roadmap to get there. Students will also participate in the crafting of a 'call-to-action' to be delivered at the United Nations General Assembly in September 2017.

Antique Table with Modern Chairs
We've all seen it—that dining table enviably surrounded by a bevy of mismatched vintage dining chairs. It feels breezy; uncomplicated—like flowing cursive on paper—and conjures up major feelings of why-didn't-I-think-of-that? You decide to DIY the look, but once you do, it feels akin to standing at a crossroads in the woods. Questions about vintage dining chairs abound: Can Mid-Century sensibility play nice with Eastlake grandeur? Are secondhand dining chairs like Wishbone Chairs playing it too safe? Is there anything really wrong with a 15-piece Chippendale dining set?
While we will given that last question an emphatic no!, the others are best answered by a few basic design principles. To help, we've gathered some easy, go-to dining table and used dining chair combos. Copy one verbatim, or use them as a launching pad for experimenting with other vintage dining chair styles. In fact, once you've mastered the mix-and-match basics, a fluent look is actually delightfully easy to replicate.
THE FORMULA: Organic Slab Dining Table + Vintage Eames Chairs
A live-edge dining table is the ultimate style chameleon. One moment it can feel quaintly lodge-like, the next southwestern, and almost simultaneously—organically modern. To honor its metamorphic-like properties, we love the idea of buddying it up with a vintage dining chair that's equally dexterous. Enter: the fiberglass Eames chair.
Eames chairs are the hot sauce of the design world (as in, they go with absolutely everything). Recruit them for the right interiors and they can feel mod, contemporary, or even Scandinavian. But when paired with a raw slab dining table, something unexpectedly 70s bohemian emerges; the combo itself reading like a meandering trip through California cool (with pit stops in both Pacific Palisades and Big Sur). It's relaxed, yet chic; a throwback, but somehow distinctively modern. In case you couldn't tell, we can't get enough.
In terms of the mechanics, a rectangular table or a circular table will work divinely, but for maximum impact, we'd recommend pairing either shape with moody walls (storm-gray would look sensational), and anchoring the ensemble with a graphic, black-and-white kilim. Oversized, monochromatic photography won't hurt either, as it will only hark back to that cinematic, road trippy feel.
THE FORMULA: Farmhouse Dining Table + Upholstered French Dining Chairs
In full disclosure, a farmhouse dining table will make fast friends with virtually any vintage dining chair. Metal industrial chairs, ladder back chairs, and Windsor styles all look perfectly curated when parked under a farm table. But for something a bit more unexpected, we love a rustic table surrounded by a mishmash of upholstered French dining chairs. The look is all storybook charm—romantic, but perfectly accessible.
To get the look, collect a myriad of French-inspired styles (fauteuils, bergères, and anything with an oval-shaped back). Seek out winged armchairs specifically for the table ends, and use armless chairs or smaller fauteuils to line the sides. The result will be marvelously Mad Hatter-esque, yet by sticking to pale upholsteries and wood frames that are relatively similar in tone, it won't dissolve into chaos.
If still worried, though, play up the shabby chic aura a bit more with a smattering of small crystal beaded chandeliers. It will keep things feeling proper, as will mismatched vases full of what else? Farm fresh flowers.
THE FORMULA: Mid-Century Modern Dining Table + Verner Panton Chairs
Breaking up a Mid-Century dining set can be a bit, well, sad—they were made for each other, after all. But once you muster up the courage to do it (and subsequently introduce your newly single table to some slinky Verner Panton S chairs), we promise the payoff is well worth the pain.
To achieve the ultimate look, opt for a rectangular Mid-Century table from a maker like Jens Risom or Hans Wegner (you get the drift: plank top, straight pencil legs). If your table features a lighter hue like maple, you might think about surrounding it with a set of white or chartreuse S-chairs, while a dark table will gel magnificently with black chairs. If opting for the latter, partner your dining set with black and metallic accents and a cowhide rug for a look that is sheer rock n' roll glam.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder: When You Can't Stop Intrusive Thoughts and Rituals
Since his early twenties, Joe was often plagued by seemingly senseless fears. For awhile, he had been terrified of getting sick and spent several hours a day washing his hands to be sure they were germ-free. The washing took a lot of time and made his hands red and raw. But he felt too embarrassed to tell anyone.
Joe, a high school English teacher praised by students and colleagues alike, finally decided to confide in his doctor when his thoughts became more frightening. He was constantly afraid that he had run someone over in his car. His heightened anxiety and the pressing need to return to the site of the "accident" to check if the person was okay was making him late for work. He was also unable to focus on his teaching. The doctor suspected Joe had obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). A psychiatrist confirmed the diagnosis and started Joe on treatment that has significantly reduced his fears and enabled him to return to his successful teaching career.
How Do You Know It's OCD?
Most people occasionally get stuck in a thought, worry over and over about a particular problem, get totally preoccupied with something they are doing, or triple-check to make sure they locked their house or car door. But that is not OCD. The hallmark of OCD is becoming so stuck in an unwanted thought or repetitive action that your daily life is disrupted. Other symptoms that suggest OCD are if the preoccupations or compulsions add up to an hour or more each day and are very distressing.
OCD is a condition that is characterized by intrusive, unwanted, recurrent, and unpleasant thoughts (obsessions) that cause anxiety and repetitive, ritualistic behaviors (compulsions). Victims feel driven to carry out these obsessions to reduce their anxiety. But the compulsions only provide short-term and often incomplete relief before an obsession strikes again.
Although the thoughts and behaviors in OCD may seem "crazy," people with OCD are not "crazy." They are aware that their obsessions and compulsions are excessive and senseless. They do not want to act them out, but they have little or no control. As a result, they may feel embarrassed, hide their symptoms, and remain alone and unsupported with their disorder.
Are There "Typical" Obsessions and Compulsions?
People with OCD may have many or just a few typical obsessions and compulsions. The specific ones and their severity tend to change over time. Most people have both obsessions and compulsions, but a small percentage just have obsessions.
Common Obsessions
- Fears related to contamination from items such as dirt, germs, bodily wastes, and chemicals
- Fears about causing harm to someone else, such as killing a beloved family member or running over a pedestrian
- Fears of having done something wrong even when you know you have done it right
- Intense need to have things in a certain order, place, or position
- Disturbing thoughts that may involve religious or sexual behaviors, and fears of acting on them
Common Compulsions
- Excessive washing or cleaning, particularly hand washing or bathing
- Repeatedly checking (eg, that the door is locked or that the stove is turned off)
- Arranging or organizing things in a certain order
- Collecting things like newspapers or mail to the point of filling your home
- Repetitive actions, such as touching something over and over
- Mental compulsions, such as repeatedly counting to a certain number or counting all the books in a bookcase
What Causes OCD?
Although the exact causes of OCD are not known, researchers believe that OCD may be caused by a kind chemical imbalance in the brain. Problems with different functional signalling pathways may also be involved.
Are There Related or Simultaneous Disorders?
Some people may experience other disorders, such as depression, eating disorders, attention deficit disorder (ADD), or other anxiety disorders along with OCD. This may make diagnosis of OCD more complicated. There has also been a link between symptoms of OCD and tic disorders; for example, OCD is often present in people who suffer from Tourette syndrome. Other illnesses, such as trichotillomania (the repeated urge to pull out scalp and other body hair), body dysmorphic disorder (preoccupation with, or distorted image of, the body), and hypochondriasis (fear of serious illness, even when testing proves negative), may also be related to OCD.
What Is the Treatment?
Treatment can help most people with OCD experience significant improvement. Working with a therapist and taking medicine are the two primary approaches.
Behavior therapy is a common treatment that covers a number of techniques designed to change behaviors. Exposure and response prevention has been shown to be effective in treating OCD. People with OCD learn to confront their fears and decrease their anxiety (exposure) without doing the compulsive rituals (response prevention). Cognitive therapy, which can help cope with fears and anxiety, is sometimes used along with exposure and response prevention.
Medicines called serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are commonly prescribed to treat OCD. SSRIs, like fluoxetine, sertraline and fluvoxamine, are antidepressants, but they have also shown to be helpful in reducing obsessive thoughts and compulsions.
For some with OCD, therapy alone may be the best treatment. Others may find it helpful to work with a therapist and take medicine.
Getting Help
If you suspect you might have OCD, remember that are you are not alone. You do not need to keep your frightening thoughts and ritualistic behaviors a secret. Seek out diagnosis and treatment from a professional experienced in treating OCD. Consider joining a support group for people with OCD. If you know someone who may have the condition and is not diagnosed or receiving treatment, encourage him to get professional help. Remember that OCD deserves the same treatment and consideration that you would give to any other medical condition.

Experimental Ebola drug heals all monkeys in study (Update)
An experimental Ebola drug healed all 18 monkeys infected with the deadly virus in a study, boosting hopes that the treatment might help fight the outbreak raging through West Africa—once more of it can be made.
The monkeys were given the drug, ZMapp, three to five days after they were infected with the virus and when most were showing symptoms. That is several days later than any other experimental Ebola treatment tested so far.
The drug also completely protected six other monkeys given a slightly different version of it three days after infection in a pilot test. These two studies are the first monkey tests ever done on ZMapp.
"The level of improvement was utterly beyond my honest expectation," said one study leader, Gary Kobinger of the Public Health Agency of Canada in Winnipeg.
"For animal data, it's extremely impressive," said Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, which had a role in the work.
It's not known how well the drug would work in people, who can take up to 21 days to show symptoms and are not infected the way these monkeys were in a lab.
Several experts said it's not possible to estimate a window of opportunity for treating people, but that it was encouraging that the animals recovered when treated even after advanced disease developed.
The study was published online Friday by the journal Nature.
ZMapp had never been tested in humans before two Americans aid workers who got Ebola while working in Africa were allowed to try it. The rest of the limited supply was given to five others.
There is no more ZMapp now, and once a new batch is ready, it still needs some basic tests before it can be tried again during the African outbreak, Fauci said. "We do need to know what the proper dose is" in people and that it's safe, he said.
Ebola has killed more than 1,500 people this year and the World Health Organization says there could be as many as 20,000 cases before the outbreak is brought under control. On Friday, it spread to a fifth African country—Senegal, where a university student who traveled there from Guinea was being treated.
There is no approved vaccine or specific treatment, just supportive care to keep them hydrated and nourished. Efforts have focused on finding cases and tracking their contacts to limit the disease, which spreads through contact with blood and other fluids.
ZMapp is three antibodies that attach to cells infected with Ebola, helping the immune system kill them.
Of the seven people known to have been treated with ZMapp, two have died—a Liberian doctor and a Spanish priest. The priest received only one of three planned doses. The two Americans recovered, as have two Africans who received ZMapp in Liberia—a Congolese doctor and a Liberian physician's assistant who were expected to be released from a treatment center on Friday. A British nurse also got the drug, reportedly the two unused doses left over from treating the Spanish priest.
Doctors have said there is no way to know whether ZMapp made a difference or the survivors recovered on their own, as about 45 percent of people infected in this outbreak have.
ZMapp's maker, Mapp Biopharmaceutical Inc., of San Diego, has said the small supply of the drug is now exhausted and that it will take several months to make more. The drug is grown in tobacco plants and was developed with U.S. government support.
Kobinger said it takes about a month to make 20 to 40 doses at a Kentucky plant where the drug is being produced. Officials have said they are looking at other facilities and other ways to ramp up production, and Kobinger said there were plans for a clinical trial to test ZMapp in people early next year.
The monkey study involved scientists from the Canada health agency, Mapp Biopharmaceutical, the U.S. National Institutes of Health and the United States Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Disease.
Eighteen monkeys were given lethal amounts of Ebola in a shot, then received three intravenous doses of ZMapp, given three days apart starting three to five days after they were infected. Some were showing severe symptoms such as excessive bleeding, rashes and effects on their liver.
All treated with ZMapp survived; three other infected monkeys who did not get the drug died within eight days.
Primates have been good stand-ins for people for many viral diseases, but how well they predict human responses to Ebola, "we just don't know," said Dr. Cameron Wolfe, a Duke University infectious disease specialist. The study also "tells us nothing about side effects" people might have, he added.
Still, it was encouraging that even monkeys with severe symptoms got better, said Wolfe and Erica Ollmann Saphire, a Scripps Research Institute professor who has worked with some of the study leaders on antibodies to Ebola.
"The treatment window in humans needs to be established in a well-controlled trial" that also would explore the correct dose of ZMapp in people, Saphire wrote in an email. "Given its tremendous efficacy in the nonhuman primates, I don't see how it couldn't be helpful in people."

Alan Wake No Longer Coming to PC
Alan Wake was originally announced for PC and "next generation consoles" back in 2005. In July 2009, Remedy revealed that the fate of the PC edition was "up in the air," later clarifying that it "would love to see a PC version available to its PC followers" but stressing that "this decision lies with our publisher."
As publisher Microsoft explained to Strategy Informer:
Some games are more suited for the intimacy of the PC, and others are best played from the couch in front of a larger TV screen. We ultimately realised that the most compelling way to experience "Alan Wake" was on the Xbox 360 platform, so we focused on making it an Xbox 360 exclusive. Both Microsoft and Remedy have long histories in PC game development. This decision was about matching this specific game to the right platform.
The game represents the first major release out of Remedy Entertainment in close to seven years, its last being Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne in October 2003.

Story highlights
Energy drinks can contain excess sugar and high caffeine
Staying hydrated is important in avoiding fatigue, expert says
Eating breakfast and consuming protein can also help energy levels
As our energy levels decrease because of our overstressed lifestyles, many people look for a quick fix to combat fatigue.
Energy drinks mask the symptoms of fatigue and dehydrate the body. The majority of energy drinks contain excess sugar, high levels of caffeine and other stimulants.
Recently, the 5-hour Energy shot and Monster Energy drink have come under fire.
The Food and Drug Administration said this month that 13 deaths have been reported after consumption of 5-hour Energy. Last month, the parents of a 14-year-old girl filed suit, alleging that she died after drinking two Monster Energy drinks in a 24-hour period. Anais Fournier's underlying heart condition was complicated by caffeine toxicity, according to the death certificate.
Relying on caffeine and energy drinks makes us feel worse in the long run by causing our system to crash.
Continued fatigue decreases the immune system, making us more susceptible to depression and illness.
So what to do? Exercise, sleep and reducing stress are important in fighting fatigue. But our eating habits also directly affect energy levels. And nutrition can affect energy levels throughout the day.
What you should know about caffeine
Here are some tips on healthy ways to boost your energy:
Drink water
The body needs water – multiple glasses a day.
Being hydrated is an easy and inexpensive way to increase energy levels. You don't need vitamin water or sports drinks; they only add extra unneeded calories. Keep a fresh water source with you at all times and drink throughout the day. Add lemons, limes or oranges for taste variety.
Eat breakfast
This is the meal that sets the stage for the entire day. Studies show that breakfast helps keep you alert, starts your metabolism for the day and keeps you satisfied until lunch.
But a healthy breakfast is the key. Good options include whole-grain cereals, breads, fruit and lean protein instead of doughnuts, pastries and white breads. A hard-boiled egg sliced into a whole wheat pita, oatmeal with fruit, and whole-grain toast with natural peanut butter are all healthy choices.
Don't forget protein
Not consuming enough protein during the day can be a primary reason for fatigue. Protein-based foods provide the body with fuel to repair and build tissues. Protein takes longer than carbohydrates to break down in the body, providing a longer-lasting energy source. You can find protein in poultry, fish, lean red meat, nuts, milk, yogurt, eggs, yogurt, cheese and tofu.
Keep your carbs smart
Carbohydrates are the body's preferred source of fuel. Pick whole grains like cereal, brown rice and whole wheat bread, and avoid sweets, which cause energy to plummet. Many processed carbohydrates contain little to no fiber. Always read the nutrition label.
Snacks are important
If you let yourself get too hungry between meals, your blood sugar falls, and you get lethargic. Keep your blood sugar and energy level steady during the day by consuming snacks. Choosing the right snacks prevent peaks and valleys in energy.
Combine complex carbs with a protein and/or fat for lasting energy. The protein and fat slow the breakdown of sugar into the blood, preventing fatigue. Snacks also can prevent overeating at mealtimes. A few examples of smart snack choices are yogurt with fruit, mixed nuts, veggies with hummus, pears with almond butter, whey protein shake or blueberries with a cheese stick. Plan ahead!
Omega-3 fatty acids
Studies have shown that omega-3 fatty acids reduce inflammation, combat depression and improve mood and memory. Try to focus on omega-3 fats from food rather than supplements. Excellent sources include salmon, tuna, walnuts, flax seeds, leafy greens and hemp seeds.
Almonds, walnuts and Brazil nuts are rich in magnesium, a mineral important in converting carbohydrates into energy. Other good sources of magnesium include whole grains and dark green vegetables.
Don't skimp on calories
Skimping on calories decreases your metabolism and causes you to feel lethargic. Keep your energy levels high and increase metabolism by meeting your caloric needs each day. Whole foods are preferred over supplements to obtain protein, fiber, vitamins and minerals instead of one or two single nutrients. Consume a variety of foods for overall health but also to keep your energy levels high.
