Unreleased Mix from Legendary Chicago DJ Ron Hardy Surfaces
- Words: Glenn Jackson
In celebration of his 56th birthday, an unreleased mix from the late Chicago DJ Ron Hardy is now available to stream and download. Appearing as part of Resident Advisor's ongoing podcast series, the 90-minute mix is said to have been recorded at Chicago club C.O.D.'s in 1987, and finds the pioneering jock piecing together an energetic stream of early house, disco, and soul. Brought to RA by current Chicago DJ Zernell, the mix is split into two "almost sequential parts," and, in Zernell's own words, finds Hardy as "He was on fire...[dropping] three different versions of 'I Can't Turn Around' back-to-back killed it. That was classic Ron." The previously unreleased mix from Hardy, one of house music's earliest visionaries, can be streamed and download here via Resident Advisor.

When tree leaves and temperatures begin falling, it's a sign winter is on its way. Use this fall maintenance checklist to protect your home from winter damage.
Keeping the outside of your home looking good requires regular maintenance. Read this guide to learn how much each project might cost you.
Once your deck is properly built, be sure to keep it safe by performing regular inspections to find wood rot, loose fasteners and unstable posts.
Angie's Answers
I agree with Jim Casper - after about 50 years of dealing with weathered wood finishing both in my homes and in the construction business, it comes down to about 90% preparation, 10% the finishing. If you do not prep the wood right, any moisture, mold, etc in the wood will destroy whatever you put over it.
High-build finishes like paint and epoxies and, from reading the Rustoleum flyer on this new product that too, work by trying to make an impenetrable surface and depend on a very good bond with the surface, AND no water getting under them. Because they are thick and are designed to provide a waterproof surface, unfortunately where water gets under them they are just as good or better at keeping it from evaporating, so you get fungal growth, blistering, and peeling.
Unfortunately, on deck and most outdoor applications except siding the surface will get nicked, scratched and otherwise develop leaks in short order. Water will therefore get into the underlying wood, and because it entered through small cracks and scratches, does not have any airflow to make it evaporate, so it sits there and breaks the finish bond to the wood (causing peeling and blisters), and promotes decay. That is why new deck boards and siding and trim that have been heavily or multi-coat painted on all 4 sides, thinking that will give the best protection, only last a few years versus the usual 10-20 years or so for boards that are painted top and sides only.
The full sun and hot conditions will, of course, cause more thann normal heating of dark colored painted decking. I had one instance where I was doing an independent appraisal of a very large commercial deck at a government facility, and in 85-90 degree daytime temps, in the sushine the chocolate brown deck surface temp was 150 degrees, and the paint was softening so much it stuck to the bottom of your shoes a couple of months after application.
As Jim said, the studies pretty clearly show that a breathable penetrating stain gives the best life, after plain ACA/CCA (copper chromium variations - the green stuff) treated wood. Penetrating stains, properly applied, do NOT seal in the moisture, they inhibit its entry and (when dark colored) help protect against sun damage to the wood and finish, but still breathe enough to let moisture escape on dry days. For my money, I will only use petroleum distillate (paint thinner cleanup) products, as they penetrate into the wood much better. Water based ones immediately start swelling the wood pores, so it blocks further penetration of the stain, which while cleanup is a bit easier, totally defeats the purpose of a PENETRATING stain or sealer.
I would recommend against any sort of waterproofing sealer, as they trap the water just like paint, and I have never seen one that is effective for 2 years.
My personal preference, though it limits the architectural coloration possibilities, is ground-contact rated copper compound treated wood (NOT the Wolmanized brown product), which comes green initially but can be retreated with either green or brown solution or can be liquid colorized darker (though not easily to a specific tone) using either of those as a base. My practice is to redo the treatment before installation to ensure thorough treatment, as from the mill it commonly has skips where boards contacted each other or where stacking seperators laid on it, and the ends are commonly very poorly done. This is done after cutting to length, as cut ends have to be retreated anyway. A simple short deck cleaner soak followed by a light pressure washing and brush or roller re-treating of ONLY the TOP surface every 10 years or so has, for me, reduced visible weathering of the boards and beams to negligible.
The product has evolved considerably since the lawsuit.
I would still do your own research and give you contractor your feedback. At the end of the day, the cost for whatever board you want will be similar.
That being said, a legitimate contractor still has operating cost which vary by area and how they run their business. I break even at $150/day not including labor and materials so I've got to charge more than that to make money. To keep the math simple, if I'm paying $250 for a pne day job in labor plus another $300 in materials and $150 operating costs I've got to charge $700 to the customer to break even. That's if I'm only doing one job a day which is why most of us manage several at a time. The point I'm trying to make is that someone with the necessary knowledge and experience to build you a safe deck is not going to be cheap. Knowledge accompanies success which costs money.
I've repaired or restructured several decks built by handymen who should find another profession. Ask yourself this question when hiring someone for this project: Would I trust this person to build my house? If the answer is no you need to find someone else. The deck is just as important. It's where your family, friends, kids are going to gather and interact. If it isn't structurally sound it can collapse causing injury or even death. One last word on decks: Always screw a deck together, don't nail it.

While you can apply for an after-the-fact permit yourself, you risk a LOT - i.e. if you do not dot the i's and cross the t's just like they want, they might deny it and issue a removal order for it - not at ALL what you want. And you may not be looking at just the building permit, but a Planning and Zoning review andpossibly other types of permits like wetlands permits as well.
I would talk to an architect or civil/structural engineering firm who ROUTINELY does permit applications and waiver work. In many jurisdictions, a retroactive permit requires an inspection by a structural engineer (for this type of structure) and sign-off on the design and installation before the city will accept an after the fact permit application, so that might be your best starting point.
Regardless of the outcome, be prepared to pay the regulatory fine for building without a permit. And of course, if it violates P&Z regs like being too close to a property line, then you will also need to apply for a waiver for those violations, plus maybe pay a fine for not having gotten prior approval. Of course, if in violation of a non-waiverable condition, like infringing on wetlands or in a designated floodway it might have to come out anyway, so having a professional review your situation FIRST before putting money into trying to get permits and approvals (with any fines) might tell you removal is the only likely result anyway.
Deck Cleaning reviews in Veradale
The team came over to do the powerwashing at their convenience and with our approval. It worked out well for us.
They completed the painting to our specifications - stopping to give us detailed explanations if we had questions. They were neat and careful and made sure to cause the least disturbance. The job was exceptional and I will recommend them to anyone needing this service.
In the end, however, I was very pleased with the work. My deck is beautiful; it looks even better than I expected. I would recommend Deckmasters, despite the delays.
Painting was on this list, although they are currently based in Indianapolis. I chose them because of the nature of their reviews and in particular their focus on quality and detail orientation. Of the contractors I called,
I had some (natural) reluctance at the thought of using a service based in Indianapolis, but

I think it's great value for money. In fact might just have to go tonight and fill up on vegan cheesecake and chocolate brownie! mmmmm

Sandeman - Spain
Ever since the Phoenicians and Romans brought their knowledge of vine cultivation to Spanish soils, the country's culture has grown alongside wine production, with wine being a vital part of Spanish identity and Spanish traditions. Each region of Spain has a wine quite distinct from the others, and it is produced by smallholders and families as much as it is by large companies and established wineries. From the relatively mild and lush regions of La Rioja to the arid plateaus that surround Madrid, grapes are grown in abundance for the now booming Spanish wine industry, and new laws and regulations have recently been put in place to keep the country's standards high. By combining traditional practices with modern technology, Spanish wineries are continuing to produce distinctive wines of great character, flavor and aroma, with the focus shifting in recent decades to quality over quantity.

New father Daryn Colledge back at Arizona Cardinals' training camp
GLENDALE -- There was something, or rather, someone missing from the first day of training camp.
Daryn Colledge, 6-foot-4 and 308 pounds, was conspicuous by his absence Friday.
The first sign something was up: Paul Fanaika, the former ASU Sun Devil, lined up at starting right guard, Colledge's position.
The team called it a personal matter.
Turns out the personal matter was the birth of his daughter, Reagan Grace.
"My wife (Megan) called me yesterday morning and said, �It was go time'," Colledge said Saturday. "I actually almost didn't make it. It was good. It's a nice 45-minute commute (home). Luckily, I wasn't in Flagstaff because if I was in Flag I probably would've missed it."
Colledge reported both mom and baby -- born at 7:26 a.m. weighing 8 pounds, 6 ounces and 21 inches long -- are doing well. They had a water birth with a midwife.
"My wife's a champ," Colledge said. "She was a stud. She did great and then kicked me out of the house. She told me to get back to work and start winning. I got another kid to pay for so she said I got to keep working hard."
The couple have a 2-year-old daughter, Camryn, meaning Colledge is now outnumbered 3-to-1.
"It's going to be rough around the house," he said. "I got a lot of pink. I got a lot of women running around. I got plenty of issues, so I'm going to be at the football center as much as I possibly can be."
And yes, in case anyone was wondering, Colledge's absence from the first practice was excused.
"For sure. For sure," head coach Bruce Arians said. "Can't miss (the birth of your kids). Those are too special."

Yeasts of the genus cryptococcus, preferably of the species C. Laurentii, form, in the presence of aminoacids, an L-aminoacid oxidase which stereospecifically converts L-aminoacids and their derivatives into the corresponding α-ketoacids. The immobilized cells are advantageously used for this conversion, which can also be used to resolve racemates.
1. L-Aminoacid oxidase isolated from a yeast of the genus cryptococcus and having the ability to convert L-alpha-amino-adipic acid and L-cephalosporin C into the corresponding alpha-keto acids.
2. L-Aminoacid oxidase as claimed in claim 1, having a Km value of 0.25 mM and a Vmax of 2 mM for L-alpha-amino-adipic acid.
3. L-Aminoacid oxidase as claimed in claim 1, wherein the yeast is of the species C. laurentii or C. albidus.
4. L-Aminoacid oxidase as claimed in claim 3, wherein the C. Laurentii is the strain DSM 2762.
5. A process for the preparation of the L-aminoacid oxidase as claimed in claim 1, which comprises fermenting the said yeast with the addition of an aminoacid or a substance which releases an aminoacid.
6. The process as claimed in claim 5, wherein the aminoacid is a D-aminoacid.
7. The process as claimed in claim 6, wherein the D-aminoacid is D-Leu, D-Ala, D-α-aminoadipic acid or D-α-aminoadipic acid -α-semiethylamide.
8. The process as claimed in claim 5, wherein the carbon source is lactose or sucrose.
9. A process for the preparation of an α-ketoacid and its esters and ethers which comprises reacting the corresponding L-α-aminoacid or its derivatives with a L-aminoacid oxidase as claimed in claim 1.
10. A process as claimed in claim 9, where the L-aminooxidase is a concentrate from the cytoplasmic membrane or in the form of immobilized cells.
11. A biologically pure culture of Cryptococcus laurentii DSM 2762.
The invention relates to a new L-aminoacid oxidase having a broad spectrum of substrates, its isolation by fermentation of yeasts of the genus cryptococcus and its use for the preparation of α-ketoacids, their esters and ethers from the corresponding L-α-aminoacids or their derivatives.
L-Aminoacid oxidase, called LAO below, is an inducible enzyme in yeasts of the genus cryptococcus. Thus, to prepare it, the yeasts are fermented with the addition of, as an inducer, an aminoacid or a substance which releases aminoacids. Preferred embodiments of the invention are illustrated in detail below:
The preferred species of genus cryptococcus is C. laurentii, for example the strain Cryptococcus laurentii var. magnus CBS 569, and the species C. albidus.
The strain C. laurentii DSM 2762 is particularly preferred. The starting material for this strain was a sample of soil from Bobodiovlassio (Upper Volta) which was incubated with several transfers, for 2-3 days each time, in a mineral medium containing D-glutamic acid as the only source of nitrogen, at 28� C. These liquid cultures were plated out onto media which contained the ethylamide of D-α-aminoadipic acid as the only N source. After further transfers, the strain DSM 2762, inter alia, was isolated as a pure culture.
This strain is a unicellular, oval yeast which forms neither mycelium nor pseudomycelia. Multiplication takes place by manifold budding; the presence of ascospores or ballistospores has not been detected. The convex, whitish colonies are rough and have a smooth margin. No pigment in the form of carotenoids is produced. Yeast starch was detected with iodine/potassium iodide, both in the colonies and in the liquid cultures. Physiological investigations showed that glucose, sucrose, maltose, raffinose, galactose, lactose, starch, rhamnose, melibiose, dextrin and inositol are assimilated as carbon sources; anaerobic fermentation of the sugars does not take place. Utilization of ammonium sulfate, α-aminoadipic acid, glutamic acid, alanine, leucine, serine, tryptophan, tyrosine and phenylalanine as nitrogen sources has been demonstrated. In contrast, growth with sodium nitrate has not been observed.
It has been found that LAO is formed in parallel with the growth and reaches its highest activity toward the end of the logarithmic phase. Preferred inducers are D-aminoacids, especially D-Leu, D-α-aminoadipic acid (DαAAA) and D-Ala. A survey of the LAO activities found is shown in Table 1:
TABLE 1______________________________________Induction of L-aminoacid oxidase by various aminoacids LAO activityN source OD 546 nm u/g cells*______________________________________NH4 Cl 9.5 0D-Ala 1.9 1.22DL-Ala 11.8 0.93D-αAAA 9.3 1.50L-αAAA 9.0 1.25DL-αAAA 8.9 1.76D-Leu 5.0 3.70L-Leu 6.2 1.20DL-Leu 4.2 1.60L-Met 3.1 0.70DL-Phe 3.6 0.74L-Try 3.9 0.50L-Ser 13.3 0.30D-Glu 10.2 0DL-Glu 15.7 0______________________________________ *Test substrate Lα-aminoadipic acid (LαAAA)
Preferred C sources are soluble starch and, in particular, lactose and sucrose.
In contrast to the known microbial L-aminoacid oxidases, the LAO according to the invention has a broad spectrum of substrates: apart from most natural aminoacids, other aminoacids such as L-α-aminoadipic acid and L-cephalosporin C are converted into the corresponding α-ketoacids. However, in addition derivatives of the aminoacids are also converted, namely their esters, especially lower alkyl esters and benzyl esters, as well as the ethers, both ethers of the alcohol group of serine and the phenolic hydroxyl group of tyrosine, and thioethers of cysteine. Again, the lower alkyl and benzyl ethers or thioethers are preferred for this. The natural thioether L-methionine is likewise converted.
All the conversions are strictly stereospecific: the L-forms are converted into the corresponding ketoacids or ketoacid derivatives. Thus, according to the invention, it is also possible to resolve racemates, the L-form heing converted to the keto derivative while the D-form remains unchanged.
The conversion of the L-aminoacids is advantageously carried out in a pH range from 6.5 to 8.5, advantageously 7-8, in particular 7.5. Thus, suitable buffers are potassium phosphate and tris.HCl buffers.
Advantageous temperatures for the conversion are about 30� to 60�, preferably 40� to 55�, in particular 50� C.
The LAO has a Km value of 0.25 mM and a Vmax of 2 mM for L-α-AAA.
The LAO according to the invention is distinguished by high stability on storage. At 4� C., it is utilizable for several days, and at -18� C., it is utilizable without loss of activity for several months.
The LAO according to the invention is localized on the outer cytoplasmic membrane. The enzyme activity is thus equally high in intact cells which have not been made permeable and in cells treated with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide. Freezing and thawing the cells brings about an activity increase of about 30 to 40%.
The LAO according to the invention can be used as a concentrate from the cytoplasmic membrane. However, the use in the form of immobilized cells is particularly advantageous. Since, as mentioned above, the enzyme is localized on the outer cytoplasmic membrane, it is unnecessary to maintain non-toxic conditions when immobilizing the cells.
In addition to the known advantage of enzyme immobilization--increased stability and ease of manipulation--when the whole cells are embedded isolation and purification of the enzyme is dispensed with.
The immobilization of the enzyme or of the cells can be carried out in a known manner using natural or synthetic polymers (U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,791,926, 3,953,291, 4,070,348 and 4,081,327).
Particularly preferred embodiments of the invention are illustrated in detail in the examples which follow:
The yeast Cryptococcus albidus is maintained on the following solid nutrient media:
______________________________________"nutrient broth" 8 gagar 15 gdist. water 1 liter______________________________________
The medium is distributed over test tubes and sterilized at 121� C. for 30 min., then cooled, inoculated with the culture and incubated at 25� C. for 3-4 days. The grown culture is rinsed off with 10 ml of sterile saline solution and added to a culture medium of the following composition:
______________________________________glucose 10 gD-α-AAA 0.3 gKH2 PO4 0.875 gK2 HPO4 0.125 gNaCl 0.1 gMgCl2.7H2 O 0.5 gCaCl2.7H2 O 0.1 gtrace element solution 1 mlvitamin solution 10 mldist.

H2 O 1 liter(adjusted to pH 2-3 with HCl).______________________________________
500 ml of this medium are placed in 2 liter conical flasks and sterilized at 121� C. for 30 min.
The flasks inoculated with a 10 ml inoculum are then incubated at 28� C. and 190 rpm in a rotary shaker. After 72 hours, the grown culture is harvested, washed and taken up in a potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.5, 50 mM). The LAO activity of the intact cells was determined as 1.34 U/g cells using L-α-AAA as the substrate in an assay dependent on o-phenylenediamine peroxidase.
Cryptococcus laurentii DSM 2762 was cultured by the method of Example 1 in 500 ml of nutrient solution and, after 3 days, transferred into a 12 liter fermenter containing 9 liters of the same medium which, however, contained D-leucine in place of D-α-AAA, and was incubated at 28� C., 400 rpm and an aeration rate of 400 liters of air per hour.
After 4 days, the LAO activity was measured to be 3.5 U/g cells.
A 6% strength solution of α-carrageenan (Marine Colloids, Rockland, Me., U.S.A.) is made up at 75� C., cooled to 40� C. and mixed with a 4% strength suspension of cryptococcus cells in physiological saline solution in the ratio 1:1. This suspension is injected through a cannula into a precipitation bath (10 mM CaCl2, 300 mM KCl) so that beads are formed. After stirring for one hour, the product is washed with 0.3 M KCl three times. The carrageenan beads are stored at 4� C. in 0.13 M potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.5) containing 0.02% sodium azide. The activity of the beads is about 80 mU/g wet weight of catalyst.
10 ml of 10 mM L-phenylalanine, dissolved in 0.1 M potassium phosphate buffer (pH 8.0), are reacted, passing in air at 37� C., with 4 g of Cryptococcus laurentii DSM 2762 cells immobilized by the method of Example 3. Addition of 10 μl of technical catalase (Boehringer, Mannheim) brings about the destruction of the resulting hydrogen peroxide and prevents impairment of product quality. Thc disappearance of the substrate and the formation of the product can be followed by thin-layer chromatography. The product can be detected by spraying the thin-layer chromatogram with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine. Likewise, the formation of ammonium ions can be followed by the nitroprusside method.
The starting material is quantitatively reacted after 5 hours.
The results listed in Tables 2 and 3 below were obtained by the method of Example 4. Unless otherwise indicated, the substrate concentration was 4 mM.

Southern Gardening: Let Zahara zinnia bloom in fall settings
I have to admit that I'm ready for this hot and really humid Mississippi summer to be over. Even though we are officially in the fall season, those high temps have been lingering into October.
But it seems we may have turned the corner towards lower temperatures. I even slept with the window open recently for the first time since I don't know when. This means cool-season annuals will soon be showing up.

Both Moyes and Neville have enjoyed plenty of highs and lows over their respective 11 and eight-year stays and the duo pay tributes of their own for those who have made their time at the club a happy one.The man who is set to take over as Everton captain, Phil Jagielka, is the programme's featured player. The former Sheffield United man talks passionately about leading the side out in Neville's absence, his hopes for the role next season and gives a heartfelt 'thank you' to Moyes, the man who took him to Goodison Park.Jagielka says: "He's done a brilliant job and I will always be very grateful to him for bringing me to this fantastic football club in the first place and then, just recently, inviting me to be the captain. "Everyone knows how hard the gaffer works on the training ground and we all know how many long hours he puts in watching football matches to try and improve Everton – he has really made a difference to this football club, and I'm sure he'll get the send-off from our supporters that he deserves." for more information.herePriced still at just £3, Sunday's programme will no doubt form part of an emotional day for Everton Football Club. A digital version (£1.99) is available on all mobile and tablet devices. Click Make sure you have your souvenir from a day we say goodbye to two Blues stalwarts.

"Another Fine Mess."
Well the plot summary doesn't lie, Spider-Man and Wolverine literally get thrown to the corner of the Marvel Universe, not in the way you expect though. They've been thrown back in time, and that's all I'm going to say.
What You Need to Know The Heroic Age is here. It's the first issue in a brand new series. Creative Team is Jason Aaron and Adam Kubert.
The Good The story was really good. For a first issue it comes out strong, throwing you into the middle of the story, as the reader tries to figure out what's going on and how they got to where they are.
The art was pretty amazing, with a couple exceptions.
The interactions between Peter and Logan were basically on par with how they're written in current continuity.
The Setting was an integral part of the story and it doesn't dissapoint.
The Bad The only thing I had a problem with was the fact that you don't know how they got to where they are entirely. It's glimpsed but not fully explained. I guess that comes with it being a first issue, however I thought a couple times the reader was just thrown in there to far.
Spider-Man's web shooters didn't look like they were there and he used his webbing. Even if they were, they would have probably been diminished by now, at least by looking at their appearances and estimating how long they've been there.

All was well except...
December 25, 2014
I checked in the evening of December 19 after getting off work and driving from North Dakota. I must have looked a little tired because the woman at the front desk scoffed at me and raised her eyebrows to me like she couldn't believe that I could possibly be staying there. Her attitude was very snarky and rude. I told her I had a room for the weekend and she said, "I'll need to see some kind of identification first," which is fine. But the tone she used was definitely not.
