Happy Wine Wednesday! I can't tell you how excited I am to post about Cultivate Wines, a winery that is founded on the idea that wine is about sharing. Sharing stories, building friendships, and celebrating moments with people you care about. I love this philosophy because this is exactly why I love wine. I love working at a winery and watching the wine tasters as they laugh and talk with their friends and family. A bottle of wine is an occasion to invite a few friends over; it's a reason to bring people together. I heard about Cultivate through my friend Katelyn, who has been working for them for almost a year now. Katelyn and I met at the Daily Grind for a cappuccino, and we talked about the story behind Cultivate Wines. When Katelyn talks about this winery and the people she works with, you can tell how much she cares about her job and believes in the Cultivate philosophy. Her eyes lit up as she talked about the different wines they produce, and she told me excitedly about how warm and friendly the company is. I also learned from Katelyn that Cultivate actually gives 10% of their sales to causes related to education and basic human needs. Check out this video below to get more of a sense of Cultivate Wines and their story.
Katelyn was overly generous and let me take home two bottles to try, a Malbec and a Pinot Grigio. She said they were her favorites, and I tried "The Gambler" last Sunday night, which is described by Cultivate as being "a manly Malbec from Argentina". This was perfect, because I happened to be drinking this bottle with two guys while watching The Walking Dead on AMC… don't ask. Let's just say the flavorful Malbec was a wonderful distraction from the zombie apocalypse attacks happening in the background. The first thing I noticed was the fruit forward aroma, and the dark, rich color. I was slightly expecting it to have a tannic, almost sour flavor, but maybe that's because I've had a lot of immature Malbecs in the past that were rather "green" tasting. This Malbec was smooth and velvety, and dangerously easy to drink! On a random note, I happened to be eating some leftover Chinese food with it, and it seemed to pair well. Although I'm not suggesting you run to the nearest Panda Express and get some takeout to pair with this wine, in fact, I'd love to try this Malbec with some actual Argentinian food. Maybe a reason to test out some empanada recipes?
As I type, two days later, on a lazy Tuesday night, I'm sipping a glass of the Cultivate "Double Blind" Pinot Grigio, and my night has gone from ordinary to special with this bright Italian white wine by my side. With my cat Mischa purring on my lap (I'm not kidding, she totally is right now) I can't help but feel happy and peaceful. Ok, so maybe I'm not sharing this bottle with friends over sparkling conversation, but with my sweet little Mischa curled up with me, I feel like I'm giving something back to myself. This is my time, and I think the owners of Cultivate Wines would appreciate that. But back to the wine. Smelling this wine, truly, I said to myself, I smell apricot! Looking later at the Cultivate Wines website, they describe the nose as having notes of honeysuckle, white roses, apricots, raw almonds and hazelnuts. So… I didn't catch all the other aromas, but definitely apricot! This wine is zippy and fresh, and I would describe it as being slightly tart. When I tasted this wine, the first thing I thought was, "oh…. the cupcakes I could bake to pair with this wine are endless…." Probably not the initial thought of most people trying a wine, but I'm just being honest here. Oh, and in case you were wondering, I'm sooooo going to pair my Peach Wildflower Honey Cupcake with this wine. Can't wait.
I love the Cultivate philosophy. The idea of giving and sharing, with friends, to organizations in need, with yourself, just makes the world a happier place. As cheesy as that may sound, it's true! Cultivate is giving away $100,000 per quarter to non-profits via a democratic voting system. The winner will receive $50,000, and the five runners-up will each receive $10,000. Thanks to Katelyn, if you click on this link, choose an organization, and leave The Sunday Sparkle a comment saying which organization you'd like to vote for, you will be entered to win a free bottle from Cultivate Wines. One reader's comment will be chosen at random, so comment on this blog post with your favorite organization for a chance to win!
ALSO, any Sunday Sparkle reader that wants to purchase wine from Cultivate Wines will receive 10% off their entire order! Just enter the code SundaySparkle. The promotion ends April 7th, so make sure you get your order in before then. Now, I'm going to get back to my glass of Double Blind Pinot Grigio…

The Noble Experiment
I think we should expect professional athletes to be role models because a lot of kids think of them as their heroes. We shouldn't judge an athlete by the way they play because they could be really skilled and athletic but is a terrible person. Athletes should never do anything inappropriate or ridiculous because kids around the country are watching what they do on shows like Sports Center. When an athlete does something bad they have pretty much no chance of hiding. I think we should look up to athletes who do good stuff.

Emanuel Kanal, MD, FACR Director, Magnetic Resonance Services, Professor, Department of Radiology, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center
This presentation will briefly review the safety data for these four agents and then will present our experience at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) with all of the agents, focusing on our decision-making process and the research we conducted in choosing a gadolium-based MR contrast agent.
Adverse Events Profiles
Among the four gadolinium-based contrast agents, there are many similarities in the adverse reaction profile, but there are some differences as well. Table 1 summarizes the adverse reaction profiles for each of these agents. In some areas, the numbers are similar between all the agents, but in other areas, in my opinion, the numbers are quite dissimilar.
Dosing and Administration
A second area of potential distinction is in dosing, administration, and injection rates. Although the agents are more or less similar in this regard, there are some variations in FDA approval to date (table 2). Physiochemically, there are potentially clinically important differences in osmolality and viscosity. There are differences in dosages and indications as well, although these discrepancies may have less clinical relevance. Despite these differences, once a drug is approved by the FDA, it is generally used by the physicians in this country as they believe is appropriate and defendable for the benefit of their patients.
Osmolality and Viscosity
Figure 1 shows the osmolalities (the relative concentration of the solute to the solvent) published in the package inserts for each of the gadolinium-based contrast agents. The osmolality for Magnevist is 1,960, or approximately 7 times that of the plasma (285) into which it is being introduced. The osmolality of Omniscan is 789, or about 2.5 to 3 times that of plasma. It is 1,110 for OptiMARK, roughly 4 times plasma, and 630, or 2.2 times plasma, for ProHance.
A second clinical concern is the relative viscosity of these agents (figure 2). Viscosity is very important when the agent is being hand injected or when it might serve to limit the injection rates during power injection for such studies as perfusion imaging or MR angiographic imaging. With Magnevist being about 5 on a relative scale, Omniscan is 2, OptiMARK is 3, and ProHance is 2.
The UPMC Experience
As noted earlier, we have used all four of the gadolinum-based agents at UPMC. The remainder of this presentation will focus on our experience and the research we conducted when choosing an agent.
At UPMC, we began using Magnevist when it was first approved in 1988 and then switched to ProHance in November 1992. The reasons for this switch included financial considerations, the availability of FDA approval for high-dose use of ProHance, and the lower osmolality and viscosity with the latter agent. In fact, I had been one of the proponents who had specifically requested the switch to ProHance, mainly due to the lower osmolality and viscosity.
Within about a month of switching, the chief nurse for MR in our institution walked into my office and insisted that we stop using the new ProHance. She said that the new agent was causing a tremendous increase in adverse reactions and the nursing staff wanted its use discontinued.
This was a concern to me since I had specifically requested ProHance because I wanted to give larger, more rapid doses. However, I agreed to recommend pulling this drug from the UPMC pharmacy based on a single condition: that we do a prospective study. I requested that we pursue the data in a scientific fashion so that when I had to go back to the administration with the request to terminate our usage of the drug that I requested we start to use, I would have solid scientific data defending that requested change. Therefore, we designed a prospective study to objectively assess the true incidence of adverse events associated with ProHance administration at UPMC.
Study Methods
Although initially intended to run for 3 months, the study actually included 6 months of continuous data collection. All UPMC patients who underwent MR imaging with a contrast agent, in this case, ProHance, were included in the study. There were no further selection criteria.
It is important to note that this study was not supported in any way by any pharmaceutical firm or MR manufacturer. In fact, we specifically did not inform anyone outside of the UPMC setting that we were performing this study, so that no political or other potential bias could be introduced on that basis.
For data collection, we created a drug utilization evaluation (DUE) form. These blue sheets were prospectively completed for every single patient. The study population included all patients who received ProHance at UMPC from May 1, 1993 through January 31, 1994. All of the doses were administered as rapid-bolus. The administration of the agent was performed by a radiology nurse who interrogated the patient for possible adverse reactions both before and after receiving the drug. The results were recorded and prospectively filled out, with the nurse initialing or signing the form to let us know who did the data evaluation on every single patient.
After the MR study was performed and the patient was removed, he or she was once again interrogated as to possible adverse reactions. It is important to note that the study was designed intentionally so that the individuals who were responsible for acquiring and collecting this data and completing the forms were the same exact nursing staff who requested that we stop using ProHance. Therefore, if there was a potential bias built into the study, which admittedly there was, the bias was geared toward ensuring accurate reporting and, in fact, potentially even over-reporting.
The DUE forms were then submitted to a central location where the department of pharmacy actually ran the study. The recorded data included: the administered dose; the indication for the study; patient tolerance to the agent, both subjectively and objectively; and any adverse reactions reported or observed. Neither I nor anyone else from the department of radiology had direct access to the data as it was being collected. At the completion of the study, the data were unlocked and evaluated. The results of this study were published shortly thereafter. 1 The results are summarized below, but the reader is directed to the original study for full data.
Study Findings
Of the 8,377 patients who underwent MR imaging study during that time period, 3,558 patients received ProHance. 1 This more-than-40% rate of contrast use is much higher than the then national average estimated to be roughly 25% to 35%. We observed 101 adverse drug reactions in a total of 75 patients (2.1%) with no single adverse reaction having an incidence greater than 1%. The most common occurrence was nausea at 0.98%; emesis, at 0.34%, was the next most common (table 3). Five patients required medical intervention, although all five adverse events resolved after either oral or intravenous diphenhydramine was administered. None required either long-term follow-up or long-term care.
We then compared the results of this study with a retrospective study that we had conducted on 5,280 patients who had received Magnevist between June 1988 and March 1990. This retrospective study found a spontaneously recorded adverse reaction rate of 1.3%.
It is important to note, however, that the rate of spontaneously reported adverse reactions is generally significantly lower than that of reports that are specifically sought, such as in a prospective study. In fact, a study published in Radiology in 1995 demonstrated that the rate of adverse events found in a retrospective study is typically half that found in a prospective study. 2 Specifically, this study of 15,496 patients who received Magnevist found a 2.4% rate of adverse reactions. In the same group, spontaneously reported adverse reactions were only 1.2%. This means that if you wait for the patient to say "I'm having a problem," total adverse events were 1.2%. Whereas, if you seek out adverse events and ask each patient, "How are you doing?" the rate doubles to 2.4%. The results of this study seem to suggest what I believe is confirmed elsewhere in the literature: that retrospective studies pick up approximately half of all the adverse events that occur.
Therefore, using the 1.3% adverse rate found in our retrospective study of 5,280 bolus administrations of Magnevist, it is possible to assume that a prospective study would have found an adverse event rate of approximately 2.6%. This is not significantly different from the 2.1% rate found in our prospective study of ProHance.
A Second UPMC Study
In the spring of 2000, UPMC, which had previously switched from ProHance to Omniscan for financial considerations, switched back again to ProHance. The decision to return to use of ProHance was made for multiple reasons including financial considerations and lower osmolality and viscosities. The decision to switch was made by a joint collection of all the physician representatives and administrative representatives from the various hospitals in the UPMC group.
One of the member hospitals, Shadyside University Hospital, decided that before they were willing to switch to ProHance they wanted to perform a prospective trial, run entirely by their personnel at their facility. They looked at the data that they had for Omniscan, which they had been using, and then began using, and prospectively evaluating, ProHance. The study design was virtually identical to the one described earlier. All patients were prospectively and repeatedly asked about any adverse reactions. After approximately 100 patients were studied, I personally received a phone call from the physician at that hospital who was running the study. She inquired of me if it was acceptable to us if they prematurely terminated the study. When I asked why, she replied that they had found no adverse events in their first 100 administrations and that they felt that "that was good enough for us." They terminated the study and switched to ProHance, which they have been using ever since. In fact, on March 27, 2001, I contacted the physician in charge of the study at Shadyside University Hospital and asked her what their experience was to date, to ensure that nothing had changed in the interim. Essentially, to summarize her words, she said that the agent was performing exactly as stated on the package insert and that they are happy to continue to use it.
In conclusion, there are many areas in which these agents are in fact relatively equivalent. I believe that, in general, all four of the gadolinium-based contrast agents are among the safest drugs that we as diagnostic radiologists use. In my opinion, the safety profiles are similar. Areas in which they differ, including osmolality and viscosity, helped to tip the scales in favor of our decision to switch to ProHance, which we have done and with which we are quite satisfied to date.

Every once in a while it's nice to pretend. Personally, I'm still a huge fan of building fake cities in Maxis games and making everything as beautiful and sustainable as possible. But Greenpeace has done me one better, in their marvelous Flash Application: The EfficienCity.
Take a tour of what a real sustainable city would look like, complete with wave power, combined heat and power plants, high speed rail, and (if you look really closely) Smart Cars.
The city gives you information on all of these beautiful sustainable aspects of itself. You can zoom into the city and learn about wind power, small-geothermal power, bio-gas, solar, wave, wind, and tidal power. The amount of informating hiding in this little city is staggering.
If you want to give yourself a little tour of what it is to be an EcoGeeky city, this is a great place to start. But don't dive in if you don't have a few minutes to spare. It'll suck you in.

-- -- top story tonight what about Florida with this 29 electoral votes to recent polls say different things quinnipiac has -- Obama at 51% Mitt Romney 45.
But -- PPP survey.
Puts a president at 48 Romney 47 a virtual talk.
Joining us now from Washington Fox's analyst Charles Krauthammer should tell me who's gonna win in Florida Charles.
I knew I'd be rich -- there wouldn't be here I'd be in the Caribbean.
I'm mighty -- look I think it's very true that Ryan there's a risk.
But I think he's got a real -- -- the risk is obviously -- the Democrats will succeed.
In defining him as some wild -- extremists.
By saying to seniors and flower hill abolish.
You Medicare -- little -- granny in the snow.
Now it seems to me that is so factually false because the Ryan plan and the Romney plan do nothing do not affect whatsoever.
Anyone out over not only over the -- 65.
But early age of 55.
That as long as you can drilling in that one fact.
You have deflected that entire line of attack the other way to -- -- other than the facts.
-- to bring out Paul Ryan.
Paul Ryan you can demonize him is an extremist most Americans.
The overwhelming majority never heard of him until Saturday.
You bring out the guy he's extremely affable he's non threatening he's very sensible these young looking.
He's an attractive guy it's like Reagan in that first debate with Carter and only debate.
With Carter where you know he'd been demonized as this extremist and the post people forget.
The polls were very close Carter and Reagan after the debate to -- reset to Carter there you go again showed himself not to have horns.
The election was over -- became a landslide.
Now Ryan does not have Reagan's charm.
But he's not threatening and he's very Smart I think the one thing Romney's got to do right now.
Unleash Paul Ryan let him go and every interview show now yeah.
Usually a little interest there's a caveat to that and it comes at the end of this program when -- analyze Brit Hume.
And Paul -- conversation today the first solo in an interview by the way that.
That Ryan has given since you've been named the candidate.
-- is Ryan Ryan is making a fundamental mistake right now but I wanna keep that until the end of program now.
Florida is a key state for Mitt Romney Mitt Romney almost has to win -- So the democratic machine.
And Dan rather represents that.
Says hey this is a break for Barack Obama.
Because it puts Florida with its tremendous senior citizen electorate.
It puts it almost in the Obama camp right now.
Right now.
So it's it's kind of if -- -- de Marco Rubio for example that would have put Florida in -- Romney camp but Ryan puts Florida in the Obama -- Correct.
It doesn't tell -- minicamp.
It means that the next two weeks before the convention.
The fate of Florida voters and will be decided it's -- Democrats succeeded spreading this clear and plain falsehoods.
That the Ryan plan will affect seniors today they will carry Florida.
Do they do not succeed in drilling in that falsehood.
And I think again unleashing Ryan will do that.
Then I think it can very easily go to Romney but don't forget yes -- might get initially.
Have put more pressure on Florida for Romney.
The other hand.
What Ryan brings to the ticket is a midwest appeal.
And we saw in the last couple week amid western states the ones Obama the ones Romney needs to win.
Ohio will leading -- all the way up to Wisconsin which he doesn't have to win but is now in play.
Those were drifting away from Romney and Ryan -- G regional effect is gonna be the strongest and you have to -- Michigan and.
Offset Florida if you lose you said something very astute which shocked me.
When you -- -- No yeah it's -- they don't know who Mitt Romney is awesome it's -- the majority of Americans.
They know Romney's name and make it might be able put the face with the name.
So I don't know anything about them.
And they certainly don't know about congressman Paul Ryan.
So then what what happens is that the Republican Party has got to get them no home.
We assume not many people will watch the conventions.
You got football -- -- up you got all kinds of things going wrong.
How do they get them know.
Outside of the three debates and one vice presidential debate how you can -- do that with their overwhelming money can they get -- -- Well I think the very people do watch.
The big speech in the conventions they -- now watch Obama.
They surely know who he is they've been there they've done that.
But they've been a curious you know they're gonna choose for the presidency.
They will watch their lives around me speech that I watched the rise speech they might even watching the keynote address by Chris Christie.
I mean think of how Obama's career was launched.
He gave -- Tuesday night keynote address.
Eight years ago that launched him to become the figure he was and eventually president people do watch that that's -- a moment but between now -- He's -- impressions are going to begin to be formed.
And there is a barrage.
Of democratic money being spent on fluorescent false -- run them down the Republicans have to -- -- bad.
But most important political Romney on the typical it.
Put Ryan on the two.
He's very affable you showed that clip of him in the meeting Obama called -- Blair house.
When he was working on Obama can he brought in all the congressmen.
Republican and democratic and and in that conversation.
Ryan had the best of all of our he had a really.
Obama had it as the chairman.
Had to deflect all the attacks by Ryan -- got into the hands of so after -- -- -- know how well we'll show everybody that -- in in totality and body language.
Coming up.
Hi Charles thanks so much as --

Comments about Derek Cardigan 7019 Black:
I read the reviews for these glasses before ordering, and some people said they fit good, while a couple people mentioned that they were too narrow for their face. I took a chance and ordered them, because they are so cute.
When they arrived, and I opened up the box, before even trying them on...I knew they were going to be too small for my face.
They looked like children's or teen's glasses. They are definitely smaller than average adult glasses. So, unless you have a smaller-than-average head (as an adult), you may want to avoid these glasses.
I have an average-size head, and when I tried them on, it felt like I was going to break them - the arms of the glasses were very tight against my temples.
I was really bummed, because these glasses are super cute.
Aside from them not fitting, they seemed like sturdy glasses, and the price was good. The Rx was spot on. They are stylish.
So, if you are one of the lucky ones who can wear this pair of glasses, kudos to you. I envy you!

I loved the shape of these cat eye frames and I would say they are the PERFECT sophisticated shape. They are not too in-your-face nor do they scream "I'm a hipster." But unfortunately for my big head, they were just too narrow.
The quality of the frames and lenses though are top notch as always, what you would typically expect from Derek Cardigan. Just wish they had fit my head.

I loved the glasses, but they were too small for my head. My head is average sized, and I looked like I was wearing Mister Potato Head's glasses. I sent them back two days after I got them. I loved everything about them other than the fit. They're cute and stylish, but would be best for a younger person with a petite head.

- Software for National-Level Vaccine Cold Chain Equipment Management
In collaboration with experts from the World Health Organization (WHO), UNICEF, the Clinton Health Access Initiative, the University of Washington, and the national immunization programs of Uganda, Kenya, and Malawi, PATH developed the Cold Chain Equipment Manager (CCEM)—an inventory and planning tool that utilizes Microsoft Access–based software and analytic tools to help with data collection and analysis. Planning algorithms, data visualization, system modeling, and report-generation by CCEM adhere to national immunization policies and WHO/UNICEF standards. This poster, first presented in March 2012 at the Fifth Annual International Conference on Information Communication Technologies and Development, outlines the role and potential positive impact of the CCEM in lead up to the introduction of new pneumococcal and rotavirus vaccines.

In the past, Norway has been one of Europe's tamer countries when it came to going out. Apart from large cities, getting alcohol wasn't as straight forward as in other Scandinavian cities. Some towns monitored the alcohol which was sold and in a selection of towns around the country you could find it particularly difficult to buy alcohol.
While some towns still monitor the alcohol sold, these days it is far easier to enjoy yourself in Norway. A complete liberalisation with regard to liquor licenses and opening hours means that nightlife in Norway has really taken off in recent years. All the major towns and cities have an ample selection of pubs and clubs to keep you entertained.
If culture is your thing, most large cities (especially Oslo) have a selection of theatres which stage all types of performing arts. Norway also has a travelling theatre which visits towns and cities that don't have their own drama companies.

Hello peoplez, I am Verus Ebullio, but Ebullio works just fine, or if you wanna come up with something more creative that if fine too. Now that introductions are out of the way, how about getting down to some business. I am a casual roleplayer who is slowly trying to improve and one day be on the more advanced level. What will you get from me? At least one to two posts a day. But lets not limit to so few a number in replies a day. Yes I have a life, but no I don't only have one. I have many Mwahahahahaha. As such I love having any sort of character, or roleplay that can be imagined. The only thing I nag about is historical accuracy. If you wanna be a god please remember that they may have a wife and as such limits what you can do. However, like any other roleplayer out in existence I do have roleplay themes and situations that I like a lot better then others. The stared ones are ones I REALLY want to do at the moment.
Themes that include the following:
VampireXHuman(Or werewolf)
DragonXOther being
Experiments gone wrong(or right?)
Fey peoples
Beauty and the Beast(Not Disney)
The rich boy/girl X the poor girl/boy
Post-apocalypse futures
Alternate universities (Ex: What if the steam engine wasn't invested, or the light bulb, etc)
Fandoms such as:
-Ao no exorcist*
-Fullmetal Alchemist*
-Naruto(pre- or post)
-D.N. Angel
-Pandora Hearts
-Darker then black*
-Jyu Oh Sei
I'm pretty sure you get the point about my animes..
And my none-animes
-Criminal Minds
-Harry Potter*
-The Mortal Instruments (Only on book 2, and still going)*
However, please don't feel restricted to just these categories. If you have a really cool idea and think I'm your girl then please, shoot me a reply/pm and we shall talk. While thinking this over please do not create my character for me, I do like the creavity juices to be flowing. If you have a good idea for two character, for example, a humenxvampire roleplay, and wish i play the male vampire, then so be it. I am completely up for that, however, I would like to name him and choose his appearance. Hey speaking of him, yes i do prefer to play the male side of things, and yes I am perfectly ok with a boyxboy if that is your thing. I hope to hear from all you lovelys soon. I don't mind playing just cannon characters, or just OC's, as long as I have some control.

The University of Newcastle has released a new book detailing the hidden treasures housed in its Cultural Collections in the Auchmuty Library.
The coffee table book - Found Treasures - details numerous items and artefacts including Australia's first dictionary, magical manuscripts, a book made of stone, Indigenous records and First Fleet diaries. It covers diverse pieces from antiquities of Rome and the Renaissance to Australian fairies, Antarctic images and antique theatre posters.
University Archivist, Mr Gionni Di Gravio, said the book was a collaborative venture of current and former University staff.
"Found Treasures is evidence of the important role benefactors and champions of the library have played in the developing the University's Cultural Collections."
For more information about the book, including sample pages, visit http://www.newcastle.edu.au/library/treasures

Inevitably, year-end lists invite plenty of debate and criticism, and Scientific American's is no exception. Certainly, we could have included the discovery of new worlds beyond our solar system, including Kepler 22 b, an exoplanet in the "Goldilocks" zone of habitability, as well as the first known Earth-size exoplanets. Or noted the accumulating evidence suggesting that hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, to retrieve natural gas is likely to contaminate water supplies. (Final New York State regulations, expected in mid-2012, could determine the future of fracking in the U.S.)
Other candidates included the report of a new target against HIV, in which a doorway to infection (the so-called CCR5 receptor on immune cells) is blocked; the demonstration (using diamonds) that quantum entanglement can occur in everyday objects; and the MESSENGER spacecraft's photos of the planet Mercury, the first ever taken from orbit.
Some of our top choices could very well have an immediate effect on our lives. The impact of others may not be felt for years. Some discoveries may vanish altogether. We'll just have to see how things turn out in the years ahead. But no matter what, 2011 held big surprises in science and technology.

text: Home Culture Please Stop Assuming All Blacks Are Christian Race Manners: The good news about being an atheist who's annoyed by this stereotype is that you're not alone. By: Jenée Desmond-Harris Posted: Oct. 2 2013 12:33 AM 0 Generic image (Thinkstock) (The Root) -- "I'm so frustrated. Just because I'm black/African American doesn't mean I'm Christian. I was raised in a home where we attended church, but during college I decided to officially call myself an atheist. Yet other black people are constantly assuming that I have a 'church home' or saying they will pray for me or telling me to pray about something -- it's like they have never met someone my color who isn't 'saved' before. It's such an assumption, and white people aren't treated the same way. How can I tell the world to stop making this assumption about me without offending and encourage people to think before they put their belief systems on others?" --Annoyed Atheist I'm not surprised to hear that you're having this experience. After all, according to a Pew poll, black Americans are more likely than members of any other racial or ethnic group in the country to report a formal religious affiliation. And even among those who didn't select a particular religion in that survey, three out of four identified as "religious unaffiliated" (meaning they didn't choose a denomination but said religion was either somewhat or very important in their lives). That's compared with slightly more than one-third of the unaffiliated population overall. So, the people who are making assumptions about your religious beliefs aren't being particularly sensitive, but they are making a pretty safe bet. "Plus, if you break it down by gender, black women are the single most religious demographic in the country," journalist Jamila Bey, host of The Sex Politics and Religion Hour: SPAR With Jamila, told me. Bey is an actual poster child for black atheists, having been featured in an African Americans for Humanism campaign showcasing religious skepticism in the black community. ("Doubts about religion? You're one of many" was the advertisement featuring her photo split with one of Frederick Douglass.) Then we have images of African Americans on the big and small screens reflecting and reinforcing high rates of religiosity among black people. There's Tyler Perry's cinematic assembly line of films with black stars and heavy-handed Christian messaging, plus reality series like The Sisterhood (starring the first ladies of Atlanta-based churches) and The Sheards (the story of a gospel superstar family in Detroit). BET is Black Entertainment Television, not Black Religion Television, but programs like Morning Inspiration remind anyone flipping through channels that worship is part and parcel of the mainstream black experience in America. To be fair, it's not just your skin color that's getting you the unsolicited blessings, prayers and labels, though. Some of what you're experiencing is explained by the simple fact that we live in a predominantly Christian country. "Ask your Jewish friends. They'll tell you it's 'Merry Christmas, Jesus loves you,' all the time," says Bey. She explains that it's a simple issue of the dominant culture imposing assumptions on everyone else, and it leads to some of her personal pet peeves, comments like, "You're such a good person/You're such a good parent. Clearly, you're a Christian." But you're probably on to something to feel that your race is playing a role in what people decide that you believe. "Intraculturally, we look at each other and say, 'I don't see you wearing a headscarf, so clearly you're a Christian' and 'You look like me, so we clearly share a religion,' " says Bey. Your frustration is a reminder that being stereotyped doesn't feel any better just because the offender thinks the assumption he or she is making about you is a positive one (even the most positive one possible, as Christianity likely is to many Americans). And it doesn't make it any better when the offender is the same race, either. So I hope you don't worry too much about being offensive by clarifying that you don't believe in God. You wouldn't apologize for your race or gender, would you? And this is part of your identity just as those factors are. Page 1 of 3 NEXT PAGE > Powered by Livefyre

We travel between BC and Alberta regularly and for the first time ever, decided to stop in for supper. This place looked good from the outside so we thought we would give it a try.

We drive through Golden every one or two years, and we *always* stop at the Golden Grizzly. It's a nice place to stop - the kids (and adults!) can colour on the paper on the tables, the food is good in general, the staff is nice, and the garlic loaf is worth timing the trip for the stop. This time... More

We stopped at the Golden Grizzly on Sunday, August 11th, 2013 at about 5pm. We were met at the door by the very angry and irritated Stephani. We should have left then. Once seated it was more than clear that we were an irritation to Stephani. Simple requests for the location of the restrooms, a glass of water, what type... More

Rota-Filler® 5000 - New addition to the Rota-Filler family!
This pipet controller features a patent pending adjustable pivot arm and liquid crystal display indicating battery charge and speed settings. Following in the Rota-Filler tradition, the Rota-Filler 5000 is ergonomically designed for end-user comfort.
The Rota-Filler 5000 adjustable pivot arm rotates to five positions: 0°, 5°, 10°, 15°, and 20°. This allows for more flexibility especially when working in restricted spaces; such as fume-hoods or clean cabinets.
The Rota-Filler 5000 features a liquid crystal display (LCD) with easy-to-read battery charge levels as well as speed gravity settings. Adjustable speed dial provides improved control with a wider range of settings: faster maximum speeds and slower minimum speeds. This allows for finer aspirate dispense control. The user can also set to gravity mode to dispense "to contain" pipets.
The Heathrow Scientific Rota-Filler 5000 accommodates pipets ranging from 1 to 100 mL and comes with two extra hydrophobic 0.45μm filters that fit in the autoclavable polypropylene nozzle. Filler measures 160 x 40 x 150 mm.

Muffler Location
Where is the muffler located on a 52 hornet sedan. Thanks JOHN
drivergo2, HI I HAVE A 52 HORNET SEDAN AND MUFFLER IS AHEAD OF REAR END PASS. SIDE
I replaced the original system. The 52-54 hornets had the muffler under the rear passenger seat, as Hudnut 52 said, and also a resonator( small aux muffler) was under the passenger front foot well. If you can locate or borrow a illustration from the master parts catalog,for the 7B.7C & 7D, it is shown there.
Well here we go on the continuing adventures of the 52 hornet and the guy who love it. While scraping the mud loose on the underside to pull the pan. there is a muffler next to the trans.Huh?? What they did was the flange was broken off at the neck so they got another pipe with a muffler on it ,wired it up to the flange from the manifold to have enough length they used the muffler.I have to learn to post pictures, some of this is to good. Iam not knocking them ,They made something out of what they had to get by. JOHN
There's a copy of the 1948-1954 Master Parts Catalog in the online library at:
You may experience difficulty opening the manual with Firefox - it doesn't like the size of the manual. IE works just find. You'll find the manual in the 1948-1954 section under "Manuals" - you can type in exhaust system to search for it - the exhaust system section is Section O
(Caution - the first diagram is 1948-1951).

Memphis, TN -
That was probably the auxilary muffler( or what the then owner installed) It is about the size of two coffee cans together. As Alex said the view in the manual gives a good look at the system. Kepich exhaust sells the original entire system, or did a few years back.

I think it unlikely that China will attack the United States or its allies, since the U.S possesses massive air and naval superiority not to mention thousands of active nuclear warheads which can be delivered to China within minutes' notice.
Yes, China is building up its military forces. But the U.S military budget is about 5 times bigger than the Chinese budget. There is simply no possibility that China can pose a serious military challenge to the U.S in the forseeable future.
