Reviews by BoitSansSoif:BoitSansSoifFrance 4.3/5 rDev +5.4% look: 4.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4 A-Pours a rich orange haze w/massive head and beautiful lacing. S-Had to wait a while for the foam to go down so I could get my nose in. Aromas of spice, primarily clove, and banana w/light citrus notes. There is also a faint scent of hops. T-A rich, sweet bouquet of strong fruit (banana, ripe apricot, light citrus) balanced by rich spices that are strong without being overpowering, and a nice bitter hop bite that cleanses the pallet. M-The overall mouthfeel is great, featuring magnificent balance between sweet, spicy, and dry. The body is richer than what I would expect (to my great satisfaction), the carbonation is bold, and the overall sensation is agreeable. D-Drinks disturbingly easy. There is some warming alcohol in the finish, so I wouldn't doubt this stuff's potency to be higher than what I originally thought.

Pours cloudy orange with huge, off-white, foamy head. Smell is a bit mild. Tropical profile. Banana, cloves, and slight citrus. Taste is slightly bitter up front. Then banana, cloves, tangerine, and some alcohol. Alcohol is actually pretty well hidden considering the abv. Mouthfeel is medium bodied, smooth and slightly creamy. Overall I'm not a huge fan of wheat beers, but this was still enjoyable. Not the best example of the style in my opinion, but worth a one time shot.

A- Pours a beautiful orangish amber color, very hazy. Heavy white head, three fingers, that resides to a minimal head that holds like the bubbles in a bubble bath. Good lacing and legs. S- Spice, coriander, little hint of peppercorn, soap, wheat, yeast, orange zest and hay. Perfect. T-What an amazing beer. Heavy coriander, wheat and yeast. Orange zest and apricot reside on the back end. Lots of complexity. The esters from the yeast own this one. Very zesty. M- Very fuzzy. Heavy body, with very aggressive carbonation. This beer attacks your mouth. O- I usually don't enjoy Hefe's that much but I'm very glad I tried this one. Its a wonderful showcase of the yeast and wheat. This beer would be perfect at a grill out.

The pour is a hazy, mouth-watering orange color (a bit light) with a massive (correction: MASSIVE) frothy head that goes on and on and leaves huge clumps of snowball-like lacing. The nose is sweet and malty with lots of clove-like spicy phenols, orange-smelling fruity esters, and a hint of lemon. Light-medium body with a firm feel. There's a superb level of carbonation in this beer - not so much that it's gassy but enough to stimulate the palate and excite your tastebuds. There is lots of bready malt and citrus-fruit sweetness up front. There's definitely a hit of booziness on the back of the palate as well as a hint of tartness and yeastiness. All of this fuses with the carbonation and makes for a complex and memorable drinking experience. Another fine beer from the New Glarus ``Thumbprint'' series. I wish it had a bit more malt complexity up front, and a little less booziness. Overall though, it's a unique beer with its strong fruit flavor, substantial belt of booziness, and nice spritzy feel. I think this would appeal to fans of traditional German Weizenbocks and Eisbocks who are in the mood for something new and different.

T-Very fruity. Apples oranges, fruit everywhere. Some clove and banana a sweet beer. M-Light, highly carbonated and a crisp dry finish. O-An underproduced style. This beer was solid, SN Beer Camp was good. More breweries should make this.

Pours a cloudy, straw yellow/orange. Huge, fluffy, creamy white head, lasting with some drapes of lace. Aroma is complex and bursting with character; hops, citrus, lemon, grapefruit, wheat, banana, clove. Flavor follows. Medium to full body. Creamy. A little oily. Sweet. Fruity. A fair amount of spices. Alcohol content? What alcohol content? Hardly any there. Hop character really makes an impression and complements the hefe qualities nicely. Great balance. Pleasant finish.

There is a sweet and sour aroma, with a strong yeast and banana/ester note. The taste is very similar, strong sweet and sour flavors with good hints of banana. Very strong feel and great body.

Poured out of a 12 oz brown bottle with a foil-wrapped top. No bottling or freshness date that I can find. Poured into a large classic weizen glass, even though the 12 oz bottle probably won't quite fill it. Appearance - Well, turns out that not filling the glass wasn't a problem--in fact, due to the massive six, seven(?) -fingered head, it takes me quite awhile to finish pouring the entire bottle out. The head is dense, like damp snow drifts, but light gold, giving it a look similar to meringue. Fine bubbles grow a bit and burst, leaving a cobweb; the foam never completely disappears, leaving a mound in the middle of the body, making it look like a float. The foam sits atop an apricot-golden body that is a murky haze in some areas, but glowing where the light passes through. A small dark amber shadow drifts directly beneath the towering head. Smell - Notes of vanilla, brandy, lavender, Hawaiian sweet bread, orange rind, and faint esters that counterpoint the more luscious flavors. Bready and aromatic, with just an essence of the notes you might get from baking pastries. Gives me some of the floral hop and almost boozier notes I might expect from a Wheatwine. Taste - Fresh sourdough, maybe even bread that still has a few minutes left in the oven. Brandy cordial, candied peach and apricot, and a mild but notable bitterness on the finish. Ultimately, it ends up a semi-sweet and lingering, with the sweeter notes continuing to dance with the drier bitterness of what really seem like floral hop characteristics. Mouthfeel - High carbonation (the pour was partly my fault, but this is a very carbonated beer), with a medium-heavy body. Velvety and a tad viscous with a slightly bitter aftertaste. Overall, this is a fantastic beer. I've not had many weizenbocks, but this one doesn't seem quite like what I would expect from the style. As I hinted in my review, this one reminded me a lot of some Wheatwines I've had, which is a good thing. I wish this beer was easier to get, because it was absolutely delicious.

Not really smooth in flavor (though the mouthfeel is), or inviting, as the hops are definitely sharp and bitter, but this drinks easily enough as a helles weizenbock. Overall, this is like an imperial version of Weihenstephan's White Hoplosion: good, but a bit too boozy. Blah blah blah, overrated (B- by my scale), wouldn't make the trip to WI to purchase this again. Pours a tall, 4cm head of white foam composed of small to large-sized bubbles, giving a ve. Retention is excellent, the foam lasting several minutes, declining to a 0.5cm cap atop the body of the beer that lasts the entire drink. Lacing is equally impressive, with complex and heavy forms/patterns clinging to all sides of the glass. Beer is a dark golden yellow color, with light bringing out paler, lighter, golden yellow hues. Carbonation is readily visible despite the nearly opaque (90-95% opacity) body, numerous bubbles actively make their way to the top of the beer. Aroma of strongly aromatic and perfume-like floral hops, with equally strong sour grapefruit, both of which are combined with modest orange peel and the strong phenolics and slight bubblegum found in typical wheat beers. Basically a strongly-hopped, high-alcohol wheat beer fermented at cooler temperatures. Dominant flavors of spicy phenolics, sour grapefruit, floral hops, and ethanol. Front of palate detects sour grapefruit, orange peel, perfume-like floral hops, spicy phenolics, ethanol, but little hint of the substantial amounts of wheat malt that surely went into this beer. Mid-palate finds continued sour grapefruit, orange peel, perfume-intensity floral hops, spicy clove and numteg-like phenolics, mild to moderate ethanol. Back of palate experiences substantial sour grapefruit, floral perfume, the appearance of heavy bready-like wheat malt, and warming ethanol. Aftertaste of medium to medium-high hop bitterness with sour grapefruit, strong floral, and moderate bubblegum characters. Beer is medium-heavy in weight, with carbonation of medium to medium-low in intensity, resulting in a thick, heavy, and smooth (3/4) mouthfeel with light foaminess (1/4). Ethanol felt in the nostrils Aftertaste is moderately dry, with moderate stickiness coating the palate and lips. Serving type: bottle 11-11-2013 06:27:51 | More by falloutsnow |

Rape is wrongly thought of as a crime that only affects women
Being a victim of any kind of crime can be frightening and upsetting. But rape and sexual assault are particularly distressing crimes for the victim and the effects can last for a long time. And men can find this kind of attack difficult to deal with because this is widely, but wrongly, thought of as a crime that only affects women. Many men feel ashamed or embarrassed because of this, but it is estimated that around 1 in 20 men have been sexually assaulted at least once in their lifetime.
As everybody is different, it is not easy to know exactly how you will feel. But it's very likely that you are going though some very intense emotions. People who've been through this describe feeling frightened, guilty, powerless, angry, ashamed and depressed, and having difficulty eating, sleeping or concentrating. Many victims feel that they have lost control over their lives and lose their self-esteem. Some find it very difficult to deal with the intimate aspects of the crime, especially when they have to talk to other people about what has happened.
If you've been assaulted by a partner or someone else you know, the effects may be even greater. As well as the experience itself you've had your trust abused and this can affect your relationship with other people, both now and in the future. You might also be worried about how friends and family are going to react. But never forget that whoever the attacker was, it's not your fault.
Men can be victims of sexual attack regardless of their sexual orientation. And while the attacker is more often male, men can be and are sexually assaulted by women. Rape and other forms of sexual assault are violent crimes that involve sexual acts and while the sexuality of those involved can sometimes be a factor, it is frequently not. For many attackers, the most significant thing is that they are taking control of the victim, expressing anger or seeking to hurt someone – albeit through a forced sexual act.
If you have been a victim of this kind of crime you may naturally start to think about issues of sexuality. You may wonder if the attacker was gay, straight or bisexual. You may also worry about whether or not it has implications for your own sexuality. Some men are particularly upset because they may have become physically aroused during the attack and worry about what this could mean. But if this has happened to you, you should remember that this is likely to have been a purely physical reaction, like a reflex, over which you may have no control.
These are issues that concern many victims of sexual assault and it can be helpful to talk to someone, like one of our volunteers, about this and other fears or worries you may have.
Our services are confidential, free and available to anyone who's been raped or sexually assaulted, now or in the past. We can help, regardless of whether you have told the police or anyone else about the attack.
Our volunteers can visit you at home (if you want us to, and if doing so will not put you at further risk) or somewhere else if you prefer. If you don't want to see anyone face-to-face, you can also talk to us on the 'phone, either at one of our local offices or at the national Victim Supportline on 0845 30 30 900 (calls charged at the local rate).
If you choose to report the attack, we can go to the police station with you. If you give evidence in court, our Witness Service can help you to cope with the experience. We can also give you information about compensation.
You may be worried about sexually transmitted infections (STIs) after a rape or sexual attack. If you are over 16, hospitals and doctors must see you in complete confidence, and will not tell the police unless you ask them to. Even if you are under 16 most doctors will try to keep what has happened to you as confidential as possible. If you prefer not to use your own GP there are many clinics which offer free and confidential testing and advice.
Even if you have no symptoms, a check up for STIs is a sensible precaution after a rape or sexual assault. You can get help and advice from your GP or practice nurse, family planning clinics or Brook Advisory Centres.
Any of these can refer you to an NHS sexual health clinic where you can be tested. Or you can contact your nearest large hospital and ask for an appointment with the sexual health clinic yourself.
If you may have been exposed to HIV (the virus that causes AIDS), you should seek medical advice quickly as there is medication which can prevent HIV from taking hold in some people – but only if it is taken quickly after infection. This treatment, called post exposure prophylaxis (PEP), may be available from your nearest sexual health clinic or hospital A&E department. You can find out more about PEP on the Terrence Higgins Trust website.
You can choose to have an HIV test separately. This will usually happen at a sexual health clinic and you will normally be offered counselling before the test. Your GP can arrange the test for you, but if you are worried about confidentiality you can go direct to the sexual health clinic.
For confidential advice about HIV, call the THT Direct helpline on 0808 802 1221 (10am - 10pm Monday to Friday, 12pm - 6pm Saturday and Sunday), or the free 24-hour Sexual Healthline on 0800 567 123.
Only you can decide whether or not to report the assault to the police. If you don't know what to do, we can talk with you about what it would mean and what your options are. You can report the attack to the police straight away, later, or not at all if you choose. If you report an attack soon after it has happened, however, it may give the police an opportunity to get physical evidence against your attacker that might be gone if you report the crime later. A police officer will take basic details from you. If the assault happened recently, the police will arrange an examination by medical staff to collect evidence. We know that an intimate examination might be the last thing you want after an experience like this, but it's important to remember that it may give the police evidence to help convict your attacker. If you're unsure about what to do, we can talk through your options with you and help you make a choice you feel comfortable with.
You may be near one of the growing number of sexual assault referral centres (SARCs). These are local partnerships between the police, health services and voluntary organisations set up to focus on your immediate support needs. They are independent one-stop centres where victims of sexual assault can get medical care and support while at the same time having the opportunity to help any police investigation (if you choose to report the crime). The centres include facilities for forensic examination to collect physical evidence. If appropriate, the police will ask you if you'd like to be referred, or you can go directly to the SARC yourself if you do not want to report the incident to the police.
The police will take further details from you only when you feel ready. The statement you make will be used as the main evidence if your attacker is caught and there is a court case. The police should arrange an interpreter for people who have difficulties with English.
You will be told the name of the officer dealing with your case. The police will let you know if someone is caught and charged and whether or not they are released on bail. You should tell the police if you are worried that the attacker will harass or intimidate you. If the police charge someone with rape or indecent assault, they pass the evidence to the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) who prepare the case for court.
If you want, we can help you in your contact with the police and the CPS.
You may have to wait a few months for the case to go to court if someone is charged with raping or assaulting you. The police will send you a letter telling you the date of the hearing. If the person pleads 'guilty', you will not have to give evidence but you can still choose to go to court if you want to. The police or CPS should tell you what sentence has been given. If the person pleads 'not guilty' you may be asked to go to give evidence. If this happens, remember that you can take a friend for support, or we can arrange for one of our volunteers to go with you.
If you have to go to court in connection with the attack, we have information on what to expect and how we can support you. Talk to one of our staff or volunteers and ask about the range of measures to help protect you and your privacy through the court process – we can give you details.
You can take out a private prosecution for rape or sexual assault or go to the civil court to sue the alleged attacker for damages. If you think you might want to do this you should consult a solicitor. If you are worried about your safety you should tell the police and you may be able to obtain an injunction to help make sure that your attacker stays away from you. When an offender is released or if your attacker is sentenced to one year or more in prison, the Probation Service must ask you if you want to be informed about plans for his or her release. You should tell the Probation Service if you have any concerns about this.
As a victim of sexual violence, you may be able to get Criminal Injuries Compensation. Normally the crime must have been reported to the police for you to qualify, but we can give you more information about this.
See the links on the right for other organisations which help and support victims of rape and sexual assault.
Most people are referred to us by the police when they report a crime. But anyone can contact us directly if they want to.
You can also email or call the Victim Supportline on 0845 30 30 900 for support and information.
Call the Victim Supportline on 0845 30 30 900. Lines are open 9am to 9pm weekdays, 9am to 7pm weekends and 9am to 5pm on bank holidays.

Eliza Ruel
Kennebunk, Maine
What has been your favorite class at COA? Why?
My favorite class was Femininity and Masculinity go to School: Gender, Power & Education with Bonnie Tai because it shook up my world view and nurtured my growing interest in anthropology. In ten weeks I examined the power of the media, conducted an in-depth literature review, and did a service learning project at a local daycare. Presenting a final project and writing a short story allowed me to reflect on the great breadth of topics we covered.
What classes have you taken at COA?
Marine Biology
Human Ecology Core Course
Geographic Information Systems I: Foundations & Applications

What is one of your favorite childhood memories?
Building dribble sandcastles on the beach
What do you like to do when you're not doing school work?
Gaze at the ocean from my window or from the lawn or from a trail in Acadia. I have long conversations with friends in TAB, cook interesting meals on weekends, and do projects for Campus Committee for Sustainability (CCS).
What is/are your favorite flower(s)?
I love the fragrance of lilacs on campus and will always have a soft spot for hardy dandelions.
What is the motto you like to live by?
"If you examine with care, you will see that it is beautiful."
Why did you choose to come to COA?
Coming from a coastal town, I was drawn to COA's seaside campus. I also wanted to be part of a community where I would be encouraged to explore and integrate my many interests. I didn't want my major to restrict my future endeavors.
What do you like to study?
Relationships between biology and culture
What do people say is your most marked characteristic?
analytic (confirmed by the fact that I questioned my use of the word)
What talent do you wish you had?
I wish I could sing [in tune].
What is your least favorite spice?

Down East 2013 ©
Photographed by Lottie Hedley
Gentlemen, start your hair follicles. On March 29, Port City Music Hall once again hosts the annual Stache Pag, bringing together hundreds of facial hair enthusiasts to celebrate the finest moustaches on the East Coast. Competitors show off their stache by strutting down a catwalk lined by screaming fans. Each vies for prizes, ranging from "Magnum P.I." (thick and bushy) to "1899 Maine Legislature" (curly and old fashioned). A descendant of Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain entered the latter category in 2012.
Last year, organizer Nick Callanan added a twist — a Moustache Film Festival. He received entries from as far away as India and Russia and handed out prizes for "Best Stache Growth Story," "Best Moustache Death Relationship Story," and more. The film portion returns along with all the finest mouth brows, flavor savors, lip blankets, cookie dusters, and soup strainers in Maine.
If You Go: Stache Pag takes place at 7 p.m. on March 29 at Port City Music Hall, 504 Congress St., Portland. 207-899-4990. Purchase tickets at stachepag.com

State of Alaska > DOLWD > Employment Security
Finding Work in Alaska
Every year thousands of people inquire about working and living in Alaska. This is a short guide to job opportunities in Alaska. Alaska has adequate numbers of qualified people to fill most jobs.
A Caution: Exercise caution when you see books or ads that guarantee "big money jobs" in Alaska. Many simply offer names of companies and require you to find your own job. The information provided is often inaccurate. Companies outside Alaska calling themselves the Alaska Employment Service (or something similar) and offering employment services for a fee are not associated with the State of Alaska, Department of Labor and Workforce Development, Employment Services Program.
Before you come to Alaska: You should have a round trip ticket and cash or credit card resources ($2,000 for temporary and $3,000 for permanent work) to live on while looking for work. Many who arrived short of cash encountered serious hardship and shattered dreams. Public assistance programs cannot be counted on by persons relocating to Alaska without adequate funds. Homesteading is not available now. The climate and unpredictable summer weather generally discourage camper or tent living for extended periods. You cannot travel through Canada without showing customs officials cash and/or credit cards that are good in Canada.
Prepare first: The Internet and vacationing in Alaska are two great ways to learn about the state, and explore job opportunities. Your public library is another resource. Alaska newspapers and magazines report on the economy, industries, housing, food costs, and weather, and they advertise jobs.
Vacationing: Alaska is vast, stretching thousands of miles in all directions, with starkly contrasting climate zones, breathtakingly beautiful scenery, abundant wildlife, and Native peoples with rich cultures. It presents abundant and varied recreational opportunities. No wonder it is a prime tourist destination! So come for a visit, savor the flavor of various communities, experience the weather, and check out the job scene. Visit employers and job sites.
Internet: Myths and misinformation about Alaska are rampant. Study maps. Get the facts. Extensive information is available on the Internet. Research time can provide you with a realistic view of the current job market (it's no longer the wide open market of pipeline days) and direction in locating a job. Learn about the climate, the cost of living, read about our cities, towns and rural villages, and where the jobs are (and aren't.) Several sites on the Internet list job openings. Read the classified ads in the Anchorage Daily News, Juneau Empire, Peninsula Clarion , or the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner. Check out US.Jobs. A few shortage occupations with the State of Alaska are open to applicants from out of state. If you find a job vacancy to your liking, negotiate with the employer via phone, e-mail or fax, and you may land a solid job offer before coming to Alaska.
Job Market Overview: Alaska ranks 20th among the states in per capita income. Cost of living comparisons are imprecise, but one study ranks Kodiak, Juneau, Fairbanks and Anchorage among the survey's 10 most expensive cities to live in. Unemployment in Alaska is above the national average. The employment growth rate is slow, below one percent. All in all, recent economic growth has been slow.
Where the jobs are: At the turn of the century in Alaska, most job opportunities are in the services sector, (where average wages are relatively low.) Hotels and lodging places, amusement and recreation services, business and social services, and health care are pacesetters in expected services job growth. Recruitment is active for seasonal summer seafood processing jobs. In the summer, there are labor shortages in some occupations. In Anchorage, the transportation sector is growing. There are opportunities for teachers, (especially with certain specialties) in the rural villages, known as "the bush." Many openings are for seasonal employment.
And where they are not: Due to falling production, oil and gas industry employers have been laying off workers, and further layoffs are expected. Employment in state and local government is in a downward trend. Mining companies have been curtailing operations. Urban school districts have more teacher applicants than positions and rarely hire from out of state. The timber industry is much reduced from earlier years. There is no factory work in Alaska. The fishing industry has experienced dramatic declines in harvests in some species and areas. Competition for federal jobs is keen: for information, contact an Office of Personnel Management in your state.
What? No roads? The highway system in Alaska is very limited. Juneau, Ketchikan and other Southeast communities are accessible by air and water only. Vast areas of interior and northern Alaska are reached by air, and may be supplied by summer sea shipments. The high cost of air travel and supplies shipped by air has dramatic impacts on the cost of living.
Anchorage: Alaska's largest city, with a population of 264,937 on the shores of Cook Inlet, is the hub of the Anchorage/Matanuska-Susitna region in South central Alaska. Anchorage has the most job openings and a relatively reasonable cost of living.
The Kenai Peninsula: The cities of Kenai, Soldotna, Seward and Homer have populations between 3,000 and 7,000. This is a popular recreation area. Seasonal work in tourism or seafood processing may be available. Kodiak Island, off the tip of the Peninsula, has a large seasonal fishing industry.
Valdez: The terminus of the Alaska Pipeline on Prince William Sound, east of Anchorage, has a stable economy where tourism is taking up the slack from the oil industry.
Fairbanks: The state's second largest city has long, warm summer days and long, cold winters with temperatures of minus 50 degrees. The population of the Fairbanks North Star Borough is 84,000. Fairbanks is home to the University of Alaska Fairbanks, and government is a major employer here.
Juneau: The state capital has a population of 30,000. State government is the largest employer, and tourism is a source of seasonal employment. Apartment rental prices in Juneau are among the highest in the nation, averaging $950 for two bedrooms without utilities. (Add first and last month's rent and deposit.)
Western and Northern Alaska: These areas are mainly off the road system. In the north, winters are severe, and the sun makes only brief appearances. Midsummer days have no nightfall. Villages outside the hub communities of Nome, Kotzebue and Barrow often have difficulty finding qualified professional and technical employees. The western Alaska towns of Bethel and Dillingham are sometimes in need of qualified medical, city government and education professionals. Food and other purchases in the bush can cost twice their price in urban areas.

By Mayo Clinic staffThere are four major dissociative disorders defined in the current edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DMS), published by the American Psychiatric Association:
- Dissociative amnesia
- Dissociative identity disorder
- Dissociative fugue
- Depersonalization disorder
Signs and symptoms common to all types of dissociative disorders include:
- Memory loss (amnesia) of certain time periods, events and people
- Mental health problems, including depression and anxiety
- A sense of being detached from yourself (depersonalization)
- A perception of the people and things around you as distorted and unreal (derealization)
- A blurred sense of identity
Dissociative disorder symptoms (depending on the type of disorder) may include:
- Dissociative amnesia. The main symptom of this condition is memory loss that's more severe than normal forgetfulness and that can't be explained by a medical condition. Amnesia that comes on suddenly following a traumatic event, such as a car accident, is rare. More commonly, you simply can't recall traumatic periods, events or people in your life, especially from childhood.
- Dissociative identity disorder. This condition, formerly known as multiple personality disorder, is characterized by "switching" to alternate identities when you're under stress. In dissociative identity disorder, you may feel the presence of one or more other people talking or living inside your head. Each of these identities may have a unique name, personal history and characteristics, including obvious differences in voice, gender, mannerisms and even such physical qualities as the need for corrective eyewear. There also are differences in how familiar each identity is with the others. People with dissociative identity disorder typically also have dissociative amnesia.
- Dissociative fugue. The main sign of this condition is creating physical distance from your real identity. For example, you may abruptly leave home or work and travel away, forgetting who you are and possibly adopting a new identity in a new location. People experiencing dissociative fugue may be easily able to blend in wherever they end up. A fugue episode may last only a few hours or, rarely, as long as many months, and then end as abruptly as it began. When it lifts, you may feel intensely out of sorts, with no recollection of what happened during the fugue or how you arrived in your current circumstances.
- Depersonalization disorder. This disorder is characterized by a sudden sense of being outside yourself, observing your actions from a distance as though watching a movie. The size and shape of things, such as your own body or other people and things around you may seem distorted. Time may seem to slow down, and the world may seem unreal. Symptoms may last only a few moments or may come and go over many years.
When to see a doctor
If you or someone you love has significant, unexplained memory loss or experiences a dramatic change in behavior when under stress, talk to a doctor. A chronic sense that your identity or the world around you is blurry or unreal also may be caused by a dissociative disorder. Effective treatment is available for these conditions. Seek medical help.
If you or your child experiences abuse or another traumatic situation, talk to a doctor as soon as possible. Early intervention and counseling may help prevent the formation of dissociative disorders.

Ni Sepharose™ excel is an immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography medium (resin) for the direct capture and purification of secreted histidine-tagged recombinant proteins from eukaryotic cell culture supernatants. The new resin can reduce sample handling prior to purification and therefore increase target protein yield and decrease degradation. Ni Sepharose excel is precharged with nickel ions that are strongly bound to a chelating ligand. The resin is highly resistant to metal ion stripping and supports direct loading of large sample volumes.

Zoom V7 development update
An beta release of Zoom V7 is now available for testing.
The new features available in the current build include,
New features in V7 Beta
- Autocomplete search box: As you type in the search box, suggestions based on popular searches will appear to autocomplete the query ("Configure"->"Autocomplete")
- Date range searching: You can now specify a date range at search time with a dropdown date selection box. ("Configure"->"Search Page"->"Enable Date Range searching")
- Improved ASP.NET Server Control supporting postbacks and viewstates (download V7 ASP.NET Server Control below). Only needed if you are using the ASP.NET platform option.
- Email file formats now supported (.PST, .MBOX, .DBX, .EML, .MSG). Useful for Intranet search engines.
- URL indexing: Now indexing the URL (domain name) and the path (folder names) in the URL. ("Configure"->"Indexing options")
- Search by site: Now supporting "site:" and "url:" search syntax, e.g. a search for "beagle site:mydogs.com" will search for all beagles on the mydogs.com domain only.
- Domain diversity: Ensure the first 3 results come from different domains ("Configure"->"Search Page"). Useful for search engines indexing more than one site.
- Scan files with unknown extensions: Analyzes files of unrecognizable file extensions to determine how to index them. Useful on "deep searching" external web sites.
- Cross platform: Mac and Linux support is coming. The Engine itself has now been ported to Mac and Linux, while the under interface it still a work in progress.
Details and a download are can be found on this page,
If you purchase V6 now, or at any time 6 months before the V7 release, then the upgrade to V7 will be free.
Currently V6 keys will work in the V7 Beta release. For the final V7 build, new keys will be required.
UPDATE: 1/June/2013. A beta release is now available and this post has been updated to remove references to the Alpha
Some usage notes on the new features.
Date picker popup selector (zoom_datepicker.js)
Simply enable the option in the Indexer ("Configure"->"Search page"->"Enable Date Range searching") and re-index. Then upload "zoom_datepicker.js" to the same folder that you have uploaded your search files to so that it is in the same folder as your ZDAT files. That should be all you need to do.
If you are unable to host the "zoom_datepicker.js" files in the same folder as the search files (for example, if you are using CGI and your "cgi-bin" folder does not allow ".js" files to be hosted), then you will need to specify an alternative path for the date picker script ("Configure"->"Advanced"->"AlternateDatePicker path"). You will need to re-index for this change to take effect. Then, you will need to upload the "zoom_datepicker.js" file to the folder specified by your custom path.
Date picker default CSS file (zoom_datepicker.css)
This is a default CSS file for the date picker popup selector described above. You can simply link to this CSS file where you want to use the date picker control (e.g. search_template.html or search.html) with a tag such as this:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="zoom_datepicker.css" type="text/css">
Alternatively, you can simply copy the contents of this file and paste it into your own CSS file or the <style>...</style> section of your page. Of course, you can modify the CSS here to customize the appearance of the date picker window.
This can be found under "Configure"->"Autocomplete".
When this is enabled, the list of words here will be suggested in real-time as they type into the search box.
It is most effective if you check the option to "Include top x most popular search terms from Statistics log file" and provide it with a file path or URL to the statistics log file (created in "Configure"->"Advanced").
It will create an additional .zdat file, "zoom_autocomplete.zdat", and also include a "zoom_autocomplete.js" file in the output folder. These files must all be uploaded to the server along with your other index files.
There is also a "zoom_autocomplete.css" file which defines the appearance of the autocomplete dropdown box. You can also adjust this accordingly.
The feature will work best if A) you have a server that is fairly fast and B) there is reasonable low latency between the client and the server. If you have a slow machine with high latency means that auto-complete might not keep up with the user's typing speed.
This feature is also know as auto-suggest.
Additional parameters for Automatic login:
Under "Configure"->"Authentication" you can now specify additional parameters besides just the login and password. This is important if your authentication mechanism requires extra parameters to identify that a "Login" button was pressed instead of a "Register" button, for example. So if it needs an extra parameter named "btnPressed" with a value of "Login" and perhaps another parameter named "formSel" with a value of "2" then the additional parameter field should be specified as "btnPressed=Login&formSel=2".
Autocomplete is a great idea! Suggestion: Allow for META tag includes for autocomplete entries, this would allow product names or codes to be included in the autocomplete list
Auto complete will be great feature for sure.
Every body would like it and would help to multiply your market.
However, scheduling feature needs to be improved so as to work smoothly with plesk panel.
You can find details about scheduling here.
Q. How do I schedule Zoom to automatically index on a regular basis?
V7 Alpha 2 has been released. It will expire 1/March/2012. You can download from here.
As before, a new build will be available from here on or before the expiry date.
I'm no expert, so this may have already been addressed. But will the new version have a drop down box feature. For instance if I wanted to allow searches to select a country first, will there be an option to have this.
There is already a categories feature in V6 that will allow a drop down selection.

KIRKSVILLE, MO -- We all know gas prices go up during the summer months and go down in the winter. Some of this has to do with demand but a lot of it has to do with the type of gasoline being produced. For Friday's Facebook Story of The Day, our viewers wanted to know more on summer blend gasoline versus winter blend gasoline.
During the summer, pollution is a frequent concern due to increased levels of smog and ozone. Summer heat can boost the formation of ozone and trap pollutants in the lower atmosphere.
Because of this, summer blend has to meet strict standards that are set up by the Environmental Protection Agency, or EPA, on how gasoline burns. Summer blend must be cleaner burning to help with air quality.
The main difference between the two has to do with the Reid Vapor Pressure of the fuel. RVP relates to the volatility of a gasoline. The more volatile a gasoline, the more likely it will evaporate as the temperatures rises; evaporated gasoline contributes to unhealthy ozone and smog levels. Summer gasoline has a low RVP and is less likely to evaporate when compared to the high RVP winter grade.
The Energy Information Administration says the switch between the two fuels happens twice a year, once in the fall (winter blend) and again in the spring (summer blend).
"Summer gasoline has to be sold starting June 1 and that goes through September 15. Then we start transitioning to winter gasoline. There are a few different phases. It's not just a light switch and we are undergoing that transition right now from summer to winter gas. We will finally get there in about a month," GasBuddy.com Senior Petroleum Analyst Patrick DeHaan said.
In many large cities as well as California and New England, the EPA requires the use of reformulated summer and winter blend gasoline's. These reformulated blends contain oxygenates that lower RVP and other toxic chemicals even further than conventional gasoline.
And until winter blend gasoline is fully in place, prices are likely to continuing falling but aren't the only reason we are seeing lower prices at the pumps.
"Demand is dropping for gasoline. We are getting into the cooler months. People aren't driving as much whether it is vacation or not boating as much. That all means that demand has dropped and allowed supply to increase thus resulting in some of the decreases we have been seeing," said DeHaan.
Because of the seasonal fuel program, the EPA claims roughly 75 million Americans now breather cleaner air.
States and even cities have the right to impose stricter gasoline qualities and often contribute to the fluctuation in prices from place to place around the country.

My Profile
Gabriel Rene and Mei-Lwun Yee started experimenting with hip-hop back in 1989. They were soon joined by Gabriel's sister Gina Rene. With the addition of keyboardist Andy Caldwell, the band moved from a simple dance music perspective to experimental electronic music, delivering captivating vocals, deep house, and jungle/drum'n'bass with contemporary rhythm & blues, jazz, and funk influences. Named after the solstice, when the sun reaches the highest point in the sky, the group turned into Soulstice to symbolize the soul's highest point in the sky.
In April 2001, OM Records released Soulstice's debut album, a 11-track trip-hop record called Illusion. ~ Drago Bonacich, Rovi

The lead singer's voice sort of reminds me of Geri from The Supreme Beings of Leisure, which is another talented and underrecogni z e d band.
I can't stop listening to this group, Amazon here I come.
Great beats...i have another version of this song--it's mellow and more loungy--both are great!!
gives lounge the real feel...

2. Think it's your right to not only own a gun but carry it around, as long as you are properly licensed and trained.
3. Love these sports: Football, auto racing, rodeo, hockey, baseball, and soccer.
4. Think you should say please, thank you, and excuse me.
5. Refuse to take seriously anyone over the age of 13 who signs anything LMAO.
Some posters lack of respect for their fellow Americans is appalling, and borders on psychotic.

i recently have come into contact with a little more disposable income than i'm used to having (yippiee!) so i've been dumping a bunch of it on supps like any good muscle addict would do.
i don't think any of these deserve their own thread so they are all bulked together. feel free to ask me any questions about them.
AMP (Ergopharm): very nice! every stim i've used since the ephedra ban has just sucked, not this one! the first time i took it i was kind of dissapointed that it wasn't like the first time i took ECA (an instant energy explosion). Hours later i realized that AMP is way better actually. the energy is balanced, smooth and long-lasting. so anxiety, no insomnia, no shakes, makes you feel good, and talkative, very good at suppressing appetite. i take 3 caps in the morning and thats enough to keep me going all day and i still fall asleep easy at night.
Synburn (Primaforce) - this is just plain synephrine 10mg per cap. i used this mainly as an appetite suppressant, but it really wasn't very good. i started at 10mg before meals, but eventually had to bump up to 40mg before meals, the anorectic affects diminish very fast with this one.
Nectar (Syntrax) - I've been using the fuzzy navel flavor, lets just say nectar has ruined for all other whey proteins. i'll easily pay extra for this product.
Pro-M3 (ISS Research) - very tasty, i got banana. tastes like muscle milk without all the calories.
100% Casein Protein (ON) - tastes too much like raw batter, grainy, too thick, i have to mix it with a lighter protein powder to choke it down.
Ultra HOTter (ALRI) - my favorite OTC PCT product. great at getting the fullness back to the boys and boosting libido post cycle.
e...max lmg (ALRI) - i loved this, great strength, and the back acne is a sure indication that this stuff was legit.
superdrol (AX) - didn't like this as much as e-max. the pumps were just too much. usually had to cut upper body sets short because my forearms were screaming in pain. strength was also better with e-max. when i bumped my dose to 30mg after 2 weeks i got sick with the flu.
IBE Clen (IBE) - this stuff is underdosed, i've taken 3ml of this (300mcg according to the label) and got nothing. no shakes no body temp increase. and yes, i do cycle it, and yes, i have been taking ketotifen. 80mcg of mexican spiro brand knocked me off my rocker, i was shaking like an eplipetic. so its not as if i have some kind of clen unresponsiveness.
thanks for reading!
stay tuned for reviews of Halodrol and Melting Point!

text: Home Culture The Root Interview: Nia Long on 'Mooz-lum' and Motherhood Mooz-lum star Nia Long tells The Root what she has learned about Islam and the kinship among Muslim women, and how she hopes the film will help dispel stereotypes. By: Aisha I. Jefferson Posted: Feb. 18 2011 12:56 AM 0 Nia Long has portrayed a variety of characters throughout the 20-plus years that she's graced the big screen. Film audiences first noticed her as the supportive girlfriend in the Oscar-nominated Boyz n the Hood, and she remained on moviegoers' radar as she lent her talent to Love Jones, The Best Man, Are We There Yet? and more. But it's her recent riveting portrayal as the self-respecting Muslim wife and mother Safiyah Mahdi, in the independent film Mooz-lum, that's garnering attention. Set against the backdrop of the 9/11 events, Mooz-lum explores the challenges that a young African-American Muslim man, Tariq (Evan Ross), faces as he struggles to balance his strict Muslim upbringing with his new secular college environment. Long's character asserts her independence as she tackles her estranged relationship with her son, Tariq, and husband, Hassan (Roger Guenveur Smith). The film, which also stars Danny Glover and Dorian Missick, is loosely based on the life of its writer and director, Qasim "Q" Basir. Long recently took the time to discuss her role and encouraging tolerance for Muslims with The Root. The Root: Safiyah is a dutiful Muslim woman who is the mother of two teenage children and married to a man who rigidly follows Islam. But she's nobody's pushover. What did you do to prepare for this role? Nia Long: I had a lot of time and several conversations with the director's mother, who gave me insight on the whole religion. … This story is a true story based on the director's life, and she really kind of talked to me about what life was like raising Q and being a mother -- and a Muslim mother who doesn't always agree with her husband. [It's] all of the things that you see in the film. TR: What drew you to this role? NL: The story is amazing, but also, I was looking for a dramatic piece. I've been doing a lot of comedy stuff, which I absolutely love doing. But I'm an artist, and who wants to paint the same picture every time on the same canvas? TR: Muslim women are often perceived to be subservient and docile compared with their male counterparts. How has playing Safiyah influenced your perception of women's roles in Islam and how they're treated? NL: I think it's dangerous to look at every Muslim woman the same and to assume that every experience within the religion is the same, meaning that there are going to be strong and assertive women that are Muslim. There's going to be a more passive woman who just so happens to be a Muslim. There may be a funny, big-personality woman and she's Muslim. Page 1 of 3 NEXT PAGE > Powered by Livefyre

After the successful first edition in December 2009, the PIPS team is proud to announce that the next edition will take place June 13th-15th 2011 in Paris.
Paris, 13-15 June 2011
One of the key steps of scientific studies and discoveries is accurately describing an "object" by defining it in space, by outlining its shape, and in time, through the observation of its dynamical changes.
The diversity of shapes in living systems and the functions that they possess is humbling. They range from circles to stars and more complex geometrical shapes like fractals. Studying biological objects and their shape raises interesting scientific questions:
Can we explain how and why a system builds and invests energy to maintain a certainshape?
How do living systems sense the shapes surrounding them?
What is the function of these shapes on different levels of description?
From receptor-ligand interactions, globular shape of Volvox colonies, biofilms of B.subtilis, branched shapes of neurons, tothestructure of living space of social species?
What are the mechanisms that direct the change of shape during metamorphosis ofinsects and embryogenesis?
How do naturally occurring shapes differ from artificial shapes?
Can we and should we use our knowledge and technology to re-shape living systems?
In June 2011, during the 2nd Paris Interdisciplinary PhD International Symposium, mathematicians, evolutionists, molecular biologists, cognitive scientists, sociologists, designers and artists will be invited to confront their perception of shapes and discuss the relevance of shapes in living systems.
This symposium will be a unique opportunity to gather established senior researchers, young researchers and students from many different fields, start interdisciplinary debates and build up an open-minded and truly interdisciplinary scientific community.
Dates : 13-15 June 2011

Pizzeria Uno
Ike Sewell supposedly invented Chicago-style pizza here on December 3, 1943, although his claim to fame is hotly disputed. A light, flaky crust holds piles of cheese and an herb-laced tomato sauce. The pizzas take a while, but stick to the pitchers of beer and cheap red wine to kill time, and avoid the salad and other distractions to save room for the main event.

Free Check Engine Light Code Retrieval
So your Check Engine light is on? Don't panic. Pep Boys offers a Free Engine Light Code Retrieval designed to provide the answers you need. Once the code is retrieved from your engine's onboard computer, a professional Pep Boys technician will discuss your diagnostic options sure to get you back on the road as quickly as possible.
Modern vehicles are equipped with onboard computers that monitor the critical systems in your car and warn you when something is going wrong. Your Check Engine light is the computer's way of telling you that there may be a problem and your car needs service as soon as possible.
HUNDREDS OF POSSIBILITIESYour vehicle's check engine light can trigger for a number of reasons that vary in significance. The check engine light can activate for something as simple as a loose gas cap to something as serious as a faulty catalytic convertor. Below is a list of a few of the possible problems that could cause your Check Engine light to activate.
- Loose gas cap
- Problem with the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor or circuit
- System running too lean or too rich
- Cylinder misfire
- Knock sensor circuit malfunction
- Insufficient EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) flow
- Catalyst system efficiency below threshold
- Faulty Oxygen Sensor
These are just a few of the hundreds of codes, causes, and symptoms that would result in an engaged Check Engine Light.
TALK TO MEOur Free Check Engine Light Code Retrieval involves you getting quick and accurate answers from a professional Pep Boys technician. When the check engine light turns on, a fault code detailing the nature of the issue is registered in your vehicle's diagnostic system computer. This fault code is stored and can only be retrieved with specialized equipment that can communicate with your vehicle's diagnostic system computer. We use that equipment to pull the code from your computer, analyze the findings and provide you with a game plan to get your car back on the road. The Free Check Engine Light Code Retrieval is free and our diagnostic services start as low as $49.99 and if necessary repairs are completed at Pep Boys, that cost is waived.
IGNORANCE IS NOT BLISSDo not panic –but don't ignore that light - especially if it is flashing.
A solid glowing Check Engine light could be indicating a problem that is easily fixable. Your vehicle could require a simple adjustment by a professional Pep Boys technician or need a replacement part.
If your Check Engine light is flashing, your onboard computer system is logging a potentially dangerous systems issue and you should not drive your car. If you need towing assistance, call 1-800-PEP-BOYS. For more information on our towing service check our Pep Boys Towing Service page.
RELAX AND LET US HELPWhether you are looking for the right equipment and replacement parts to tackle an issue your check engine light has identified or you would like to use our Free Check Engine Light Code Retrieval and then discuss diagnostic options which start as low as $49.99, and we waive that charge if Pep Boys' completes any necessary repairs, Pep Boys will help get your vehicle in top shape so you can take yourself from Point A to Point B.
