The scientific literature has shown that there are inequalities between women and men in STEM. Denying that a problem exists is the single biggest obstacle in promoting gender equity in science. The way to move forward is to start off from the position that things are unequal; so what are we going to do about it?
Many women eventually drop out of STEM fields because of organisational barriers to career progression, lack of career guidance and support, and family commitments. The same is not true for men who work in STEM. Although many women scientists successfully balance their careers and family responsibilities, there are still institutional obstacles for women in STEM. Having women role models and good mentors are powerful simulators for change.Our Aims
- Make women in STEM more visible to the public, with a special focus on women scientists on Google+
- Promote careers for women in STEM
- Highlight issues of gender inequality
- Address solutions to improve women's participation, inclusion, leadership and recognition in STEM.

Today is the birthday of cardiologist Helen Taussig who is recognized for her pioneering role in treating "blue baby syndrome".
❤ On a late November day in 1944, bright sunlight streamed upon the blue-tinged body of 18 month old Eileen Saxon, who was hovering near death. Born with a congenital heart defect that prevented her blood from being oxygenated by her lungs, she now weighed little more than 9 pounds. Across the ocean, World War II raged on, but at the +Johns Hopkins University hospital in Baltimore, another type of history was being made. Under the gaze of 706 doctors gathered around, Dr. Alfred Blalock meticulously rerouted an artery heading to the child's arm, back to the lungs giving the oxygen-starved blood a second chance of rejuvenation. The anesthesiologist cried out in astonishment as Eileen's lips turned from blue to a healthy red. That was the start of a successful procedure that would cure thousands of "blue babies" in the brand new era of heart surgery that followed. Today, we remember Dr. Helen Taussig, whose brilliant idea it was that set the stage.
❤ Born on this day, May 24, in 1898, Helen took medical classes at both Harvard and Boston Universities although neither would award her a degree because of her gender. Worse, she was forbidden to speak to her male colleagues in histology class because of fears that she would "contaminate" them. She completed her MD degree at Johns Hopkins and there, as a pediatric cardiologist did extensive work with anoxemia, or blue baby syndrome. She noticed that blue babies with an additional heart defect (called PDA) fared better, and that a shunt that mimicked PDA could be the solution. She pitched the idea of getting more blood to the lungs much "as a plumber changes pipes around" to surgeon Alfred Blalock and his technician Vivien Thomas. Thomas, a black man whose education did not go beyond high school, practiced the surgery in the animal lab and after modifying instruments for use in humans, coached Dr. Blalock through the first hundred surgeries in infants. In 1976, Hopkins awarded him an honorary doctorate. Sadly, little Eileen became cyanotic again in a few months and did not survive past 2 years even though other babies would go on to live healthy lives. Today, a modified version of the shunt is performed using a synthetic Gore-Tex graft (lower right image).
¸¸.•*¨*•♫ Happy Birthday, Dr. Taussig!
Image Note: Helen Taussig became deaf in later years, and actually used her fingers rather than a stethoscope to feel the rhythm of heartbeats.

Meena Boppana is a junior at Harvard and former president of the Harvard Undergraduate Math Association. Passionate about math, she wondered why so few of her female friends with "insanely strong math backgrounds" (think- math competition stars) chose not to major in math. She writes: This year, there were no female students in Math 55a, the most intense freshman math class, and only two female students graduating with a primary concentration in math. There are also a total of zero tenured women faculty in Harvard math.
Her survey of Harvard undergrads found that the culprit was climate: women would like to be more involved with math but were uncomfortable by the gender gap and the culture of the math department.

Have you wondered how local culture impacts the experience of women in STEM? +Cathy Newman, a PhD student in evolutionary biology, reports on a panel discussion at Louisiana State University which covered familiar and unique grounds of self confidence, sexual harassment and sexism in southern culture. Read about Cathy's personal perspective on the challenges faced by STEM women, and pick up some helpful tips from the expert panel on our latest blog post.
Marie Maynard Daly conducted ground-breaking research on the impact of cholesterol and sugars on heart disease, as well as examining the circulatory system and hypertension in advanced age. Towards the end of her career, she examined how proteins are produced and organised in the cell.
Today she is remembered for being the first Black American woman to be awarded a PhD in Chemistry in the United States, in 1947, but her legacy is more profound, both in terms of her scientific achievements, and her work in promoting diversity in STEM.
Dr Daly graduated magna cum laude with a Bachelor degree in Chemistry in 1942; she completed her Master's degree in one year; and her PhD in 3 years.
In 1988, Dr Daly also established a scholarship for African American science students at Queens College. The fund honours of her father who was a strong supporter of her education and career, and who was forced by economic circumstances to drop out of Cornell University, where he was studying chemistry.
"Enzymes are complicated and indispensable molecules, whose importance lies within their ability to speed up chemical reactions, and to regulate nearly every biochemical process in the bodies of living organisms. Countless scientists spent years researching those intricate molecules - amongst others, one of the most prominent was Marie Maynard Daly....
Marie Maynard Daly conducted important research projects, which clarified a variety of mechanisms happening in human bodies despite all the problems she had to overcome, whether it was race or gender bias, or her lack of money. Her research and studies, aimed at a wide range of subjects, provided an important base for next generations of scientists."

Sitting in a conference hearing a male colleague speak about the mentors who'd supported his career, +NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory Professor Anita Sengupta realised that, as one of the few women in her field, she'd never had this type of support.
"I sat there thinking, I've been working here for 10 years, and I never had that... I'm also a professor at +University of Southern California, and there are very few female professors in hard science and engineering fields. So, there aren't enough female role models girls can look up to and feel like this kind of thing is normal. It's a huge detractor. There aren't enough role models pulling girls in."
On +Fast Company, Professor Sengupta also talks about being from a migrant family and drawing support from her parents. She is developing the International Space Station Cold Atom Lab. http://goo.gl/6CLC0o
Thanks to Dr +Bill Carter for sharing this article. He said on his original post: "I feel like a broken record about these issues. Bears repeating: We need the best and brightest doing science and engineering. No excuses." Hear, hear!

..Though her answer was correct, she received over 10,000 letters, many from noted scholars and Ph.Ds, informing her that she was a hare-brained idiot.
Check out this educational role-playing game which traces what it's like to be a young woman student in STEM. The game is text-based and includes lots of useful facts about gender equity.
The game is made by two Harvard women students, Danielle Frostig and Arianna Benson for Gender and Science.
You seem to argue that nature, not nurture, keeps girls out of STEM. There is no evidence to support your theory. See rebuttal: http://blogs.nature.com/soapboxscience/2014/09/04/nature-vs-nurture-girls-and-stem
The apparent variation between genders that you observe, relating to STEM choices, is due to socialization and institutional bias. Read up on it.
You fit into this category: You can't argue with hard data about gender bias in science. Except that lots of people do, especially men in online comments about research on the topic. That's the major finding of a study published today in Psychology of Women Quarterly – that men are much more likely than women to reject findings of sexism in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM), and even to make sexist comments in response to such research.
You don't like "positive discrimination" yet you are the product of centuries of such positive discrimination and affirmative action for men. It's time for you to repudiate negative discrimination against women.
You don't see anyone fighting to get a 50-50 distribution on kindergarten teachers. These are low paying jobs, unfortunately. Increase the wages, and you will see men competing to get them. Even though nursing is primarily dominated by women, a recent study showed that male nurses earn more. I don't know the status of electrical repair crews, though I suspect they are also low paying. The STEM careers we are discussing are highly paid jobs, which earn more than non-STEM jobs on average.
If you want to argue on this forum, you will need to produce scientific studies to back up your assertions otherwise it's just your uninformed opinion and I won't engage further.
You may recall that in November 2014, we wrote about the research led by Professors Wendy Williams and Stephen Ceci, which they published on +The New York Times under the headline, Academic Science Isn't Sexist. The researchers are at it again, having published another article with +CNN titled The Myth About Women in Science.
The researchers argue that women in science are favoured by faculty hiring panels 2:1; however, their study makes these claims based on a flawed study design. Williams and Ceci sent out surveys asking a sample of academics to rate three hypothetical candidates (two men, one woman) based on a short narrative by a fictional hiring committee Chair. This is not how women academics are hired in the real world.
In the reality, women scientists send in their CVs and responses to selection criteria, with supporting materials such as teaching records, letters of recommendation, publications and grants record and so on. Then a selection panel chooses a shortlist. Applicants interview. The panel then reviews and deliberates on the interviews and materials, and so on.
Even though their study does not address the real life context of hiring decisions, Williams and Ceci write on CNN:
"Our results, coupled with actuarial data on real-world academic hiring showing a female advantage, suggest this is a propitious time for women beginning careers in academic science. The low numbers of women in math-based fields of science do not result from sexist hiring, but rather from women's lower rates of choosing to enter math-based fields in the first place, due to sex differences in preferred careers and perhaps to lack of female role models and mentors... the only sexism they face in the hiring process is bias in their favor.
Various women in STEM have published critiques of Williams and Ceci's research, including one of our managers, +Zuleyka Zevallos, who shows why the study's methods do not match the researchers' conclusions (http://goo.gl/pgm2C9). Dr +Karen James has curated the Twitter and blog conversations showing why Williams and Ceci's publicity of their research is disingenuous at the very least, and damaging to the cause of gender equity and inclusion (http://goo.gl/b70Edf).
Dr +Kathryn Clancy coined the term #GaslightingDuo which is the Twitter hashtag being used to discuss the broader issues with the coverage of Williams and Ceci's research (http://goo.gl/vd89Yn). This term reflects how Williams and Ceci's opinion pieces, which are published in popular media, without scientific critique, are tantamount to telling women they are making up the discrimination they experience, which is actually well-documented in the scientific literature.
Williams and Ceci have dismissed critiques about their methods, dismissing women scientists as nothing but "online detractors." Now Science Careers, a publication by the +AAAS - The American Association for the Advancement of Science, has joined Williams and Ceci's defence, by publishing a one-sided article, without acknowledging the scientific critiques of their research. They quote Williams:
"It's tempting to blame gender when you don't get a job and you're a woman. It's easier … than to admit that the entire premise of what you've done for the past 7 years of your life was flawed at the root."
The fact is that many studies have demonstrated that bias against women exists in hiring and at other stages of the academic "pipeline." One such study is research showing that, when evaluating CVs with identical information, with only the genders being different, men are favoured over women (http://goo.gl/yT2FqR)
Dr +Marie-Claire Shanahan includes a useful review of the literature showing that bias against women has a negative impact on their hiring and subsequent careers. She cautions that the story that Williams and Ceci are selling, which is being enthusiastically supported by the media, is one which will further disadvantage women:
"The authors wouldn't have published at CNN if they didn't want this to be a dinner table, playground, and soccer team conversation piece. Yet, without much evidence that hiring bias is the major obstacle, this study adds a strong voice to the public conversation about science that says: "Guess what, no bias! Just choose to apply to tenure track jobs!" How might the CNN piece (and even the study) sound around the water cooler?: "That thing about women in science struggling to get jobs, totally a myth."
Williams and Ceci are trying to change the narrative about women in STEM, arguing that being "negative" about the challenges women face is turning women away from science. That narrative is false. Scientific research shows that women's abilities and enthusiasm is not the issue, nor is the problem that women in science are speaking up about sexism, sexual harassment and discrimination. Sexism doesn't end by pretending women have some hypothetical balance in our favour, especially given that data show this is not the case. Sexism ends through active education about gender bias, by addressing institutional barriers, and by better informing the public about how to support girls and women in STEM education.

None of the other women had ever asked questions before, but by asking questions, Johnson began to stand out. She was told that women didn't participate in the briefings or attend meetings; she asked if there were a law against it. The answer, of course, was no, and so Johnson began to attend briefings.
Today we commemorate the birthday of Amalie Emmy Noether. Emmy Noether was born to a Jewish family in the Bavarian town of Erlangen; her father was mathematician Max Noether. Emmy originally planned to teach French and English after passing the required examinations, but instead studied mathematics at the University of Erlangen, where her father lectured. She is renowned for her groundbreaking contributions to abstract algebra and theoretical physics. She revolutionized the theories of rings, fields, and algebras, and top notch pioneers in their fields such as Pavel Alexandrov, Albert Einstein, Jean Dieudonné, Hermann Weyl, et al. described her as the most important woman in the history of mathematics.
In my opinion, in physics the most important discovery of her's is the one-to-one correspondence between continuous symmetries on one side and conserved quantities on the other side -- Noether's theorem. It is a deep physical insight whose origin and meaning became clear later in quantum mechanics, where conserved quantities generate the symmetry transformations. Now, you may have thought many a times as to what is "Energy". The answer lies in Noether's theorem. The time evolution in quantum mechanics is governed by the Hamiltonian trough the time evolution operator U= exp (iHt). Noether's theorem again show us that there is a relationship between Energy (Through the Hamiltonian) and system's time evolution. Or in other words, Noether's theorem guarantees that there's a number that's conserved whenever there's time translational symmetry, or in other words the quantity whose conservation law can be derived from the time-translation symmetry is referred to as energy. From spatial translations, one obtains the momentum; from spatial rotations, one can derive the components of the angular momentum; Galilean or Lorentz symmetries are linked to the constant velocity of the center of mass, so on and so forth. Here's a note I wrote on Noether's theorem.
Around 1915 when David Hilbert and Felix Klein wanted her to be a Privatdozent in Göttingen, there was some opposition. A female teacher would be viewed as a humiliating experience for the chauvinistic society! However, she spent four years lecturing under Hilbert's name. Her habilitation was approved in 1919, allowing her to obtain the rank of Privatdozent. Noether was an excellent teacher and never claimed credit for work she wouldn't deserve. Unfortunately one of her students, Werner Weber, later helped Adolf Hitler to get rid of her in 1933. She moved to Bryn Mawr College in Pennsylvania. Even there she had to face the "prevalent" male chauvinism.
Contributions and Publications by Emmy Noether: http://bit.ly/cR6pIm
A very good article on Emmy Noether from Wikipedia (This happens to be today's featured article in Wikipedia): http://bit.ly/12bhAy Noether's application for admission to the University of Erlangen and three curricula vitae. The first of these is in Emmy Noether's own handwriting (In German): http://bit.ly/9L80ip
Some memories of Noether: http://bit.ly/1eBc6UA Here's an important paper showing the importance of Noether's work: http://arxiv.org/pdf/physics/9807044v2.pdf
And, here's translation of Noether's Theorems in English: http://arxiv.org/abs/physics/0503066
Sadly, male chauvinism still exists in many parts of the world, because of which many potential "could be" Noether are denied education. And its a matter of shame that Noether was also a victim of sexism, like many others. In spite of that, against all odds, she made remarkable contributions in the "magnanimous" world of Mathematics, and Theoretical Physics.

Research shows that most academic conferences do not equally represent women, especially minority women, with most keynote speakers and panels dominated by men (and White men specifically in Western societies). Women's inclusion is an issue, as is our access and participation during conferences. In many disciplines, women are less likely to be presenters and they are also less likely to be called on to ask questions during sessions. Conferences are one of the key vehicles for sharing scholarly knowledge and collaboration, which is why gender inclusion and diversity matters. Over 600 scholars have already signed this call for gender equality at conferences. Lend your support via the link below.
If you'd like to know more on this issue, see our STEM Women interview with Professor +Jonathan Eisen who shares practical advice about how to address conference inequality: http://www.stemwomen.net/jonathan-eisen/
Jonathan uses the tag #YAMMM (Yet Another Mostly Male Meeting) to publicly request that conference organisers be more gender inclusive. He has also protested by ensuring his keynote speeches prominently feature women researchers. Read more on our post: http://goo.gl/S73QtX

"They're [things that are] so small you'd never even complain about them," Percival said. "But they happen day after day. They're the kind of things that separate and exclude you from the team and make you say, 'Hey, is this the right career path for me?'"
One example: Google's own data showed women were promoted less often than men because workers need to nominate themselves. Women who did so got pushback. Based on her studies, Williams found that women are rewarded for modesty and penalized for what men might see as "aggressive" behavior. Google began including female leaders at workshops to coach everyone — men and women — on how to promote themselves effectively. The gender difference among nominees disappeared, Williams said.
"A Harvard Business Review study from 2008 found that as many as 50% of women working in science, engineering and technology will, over time, leave because of hostile work environments."
Boys Club blocking women from reaching top level positions?
My recommendation: Start your own company, hire men for small jobs, hire women for top position, hire me as consultant. ㋡

NHL Rumors: Could NHL Be Next To Get A Team In Seattle?
Word has been leaking out over the past couple days that the Maloof Brothers are in the process of trying to sell the NBA's Sacramento Kings to the Chris Hansen/Steve Ballmer group in Seattle for as much as $525 million, at which point the Kings would be relocated to Seattle in time for the 2013-2014 NBA Season.
While all of the details have yet to be ironed out, one report has suggested that talks are "1st and Goal at the one-yard line," so the worst-kept secret in the NBA and NHL this past handful of months might finally be close to getting done. So what does this mean for the NHL?
Well, if you are a conspiracy theorist, your ears might perk up at this news because you'll no doubt recognize that the Greg Jamison/Phoenix Coyotes deal still has yet to be consummated and that the Coyotes, technically, are still in play as relocation candidates. Perhaps that has been the game plan all along.
Could Jamison have gotten involved because he and Gary Bettman suspected this turn of events might take place in Seattle and wanted to do their best to make it seem as though "The NHL did all it could to keep the team in Phoenix"? Maybe it was just a happy coincidence. Either way, it's hard not to look at all the cloak-and-dagger shenanigans that have been going on with this mess in Phoenix and not be a little suspicious that it has been nothing but a ruse while the NHL waited to see if the folks in Seattle could get this ball rolling.
Now that the new CBA has been agreed to and is expected to be ratified by the players this weekend, and now that we know we are on our way to having NHL hockey to watch again, you cannot help but start looking as well to the somewhat inevitable conclusion that expansion is in the league's future, but Seattle shouldn't be involved in that part of the equation.
If the league is smart, they will try and award expansion franchises to Quebec City and Markham (in the greater Toronto area) in the near future so their much talked about realignment plan can include 32 teams instead of 30. Also, they can squeeze far more money out of those areas in expansion fees than they would get from the Seattle area, and with Canadians being as rabid as they are about hockey, they will be willing to continue following an expansion franchise even during their difficult beginnings.
As much as the NHL clearly wants to get into the Seattle market, they know they might be better off relocating an established franchise like Phoenix so they can get off to a positive start in the new market and create a good buzz that will extend beyond the hockey fans who already exist throughout the Northwest.
The NBA looks like it is about to rectify an enormous wrong and give Seattle a team again. So with prospective owners like Don Levin waiting in the wings and considering that bringing the NHL to Seattle has always been the second part of the Hansen/Ballmer group's plan to make the arena successful, can news of a franchise relocating to Seattle be far off?

Circ X's Ten-Year Anniversary: The Best of the Fest
Look, we're going to be honest with you: Circ X's 10-year anniversary show last weekend wasn't what you'd call a masterpiece. At three hours long, there were plenty of sketches and performances that didn't entertain nearly as much as we'd have liked. Even with two intermissions, 180 minutes is a long time to spend at any show.

The Monkey's Paw
by W.W. Jacobs
Analysis: Trivia
Brain Snacks: Tasty Tidbits of Knowledge
The W.W. in W.W. Jacobs stands for William Wymark (source).
W.W. Jacobs, author of "The Monkey's Paw," was known primarily as a writer of comedy in his day. He made his living by writing funny novels and short stories, most of them set on the water. Check out this New York Times reference (from 1907) to his "familiar humorous themes."
"The Monkey's Paw" inspired an episode of The Simpsons . In it, Homer gets four wishes instead of the usual three. Does he use them wisely?
Stephen King's bestselling novel Pet Sematary was inspired in part by "The Monkey's Paw." King even quotes the short story at the beginning of Part Three of his novel.

Notts County won't rush manager search
Tuesday 13 October 2009
Notts County have stressed they will not be rushed into the appointment of a new manager following the departure of Ian McParland.
McParland was relieved of his duties yesterday with the club lying fifth in Coca-Cola League Two and a host of high-profile names have already been linked with the vacancy at Meadow Lane.
But a statement from executive chairman Peter Trembling on the club's official website, www.nottscountyfc.co.uk, read: "We fully understand and appreciate there will be considerable debate about the identity of the new appointment.
"What I can say is that we will take the appropriate amount of time to ensure we make the right appointment. This will be done to our own time schedule.
"As we would all expect, our director of football Sven-Goran Eriksson will be responsible for this appointment.
"Beyond that, we cannot make any further comment at this stage."
McParland's departure was the second high-profile exit at Meadow Lane in recent weeks with former England defender Sol Campbell walking out on the Magpies after just one appearance.
Expectations at the club have rocketed following the arrival of Swiss-based Middle East owners Munto Finance in the summer, and Trembling is aware the board are under pressure to find the ideal successor to McParland.
"Appointing a new football manager is arguably one of the single most important decisions that a football club can take - regardless of whether they are in the Premier League or in non-league football," he added.
"Our next appointment is going to be extremely vital to the project we are endeavouring to deliver here."
Trembling admitted McParland had become the victim of the increased demands for success at the club.
County had lost only three of their opening 12 games and are unbeaten on home soil, but Sunday's 2-2 draw at Torquay left many fans frustrated and seemingly convinced the club to act swiftly.
"Everyone at the football club is genuinely sorry to part company with Ian," said Trembling.
"It is an inescapable fact that the hopes and ambitions of the football club have been totally transformed in the past few months.
"As a board of directors, for footballing reasons we felt a need to make a change to the current situation."

La Jota Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain Howell Mountain Selection 2010
Winemaker's Notes:
92 points Antonio Galloni (Wine Advocate): The 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon shows considerable richness, breadth and power. Dark red berries, grilled herbs, licorice and new leather flesh out in this generous, large-scaled wine. Sweet floral, and mentholated notes are layered into the delineated, tense finish. This is a decidedly soft, gentle wine for Howell Mountain, perhaps because of the addition of 10% Merlot in the blend, which also includes smaller amounts of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2025. (Dec 2012)
Founded in the 1890s, La Jota Vineyard Co. overlooks Napa Valley from high upon Howell Mountain. The volcanic soils, elevation and climate of this unique site yield wines of great fruit intensity, structure and aging potential. Discover our rich history, our mountain vineyard and winemaking, and our century-old fieldstone winery — not to mention many unique opportunities to experience each of our exceptional Howell Mountain wines
Editorial Reviews for La Jota Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain Howell Mountain Selection
Hard and rich smelling with great depth on the nose. This is imposingly rich and packed with fruit blackberry fruit accented with bay leaf, cocoa and baking spices. Wow this smells impressive, and on the palate it delivers the goods. Remaining very young and rich this is packed with dark cassis fruit and has a huge palate presence filled with ripe fruit tannins and superbly integrated acidity. It's not yet fully open on the finish but the snappy, crisp acidity gives this phenomenal focus through the mouth and keeps that intense core of fruit fresh and bright. The finish reveals notes of earth, spice and some herbal stemminess and gains surprising finesse with air. A real find. 95pts

External Reviews for La Jota Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain Howell Mountain Selection
The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon comes across as gorgeous and round in its expressive dark red and black fruit, earthiness, menthol, spices and graphite. The firm Howell Mountain tannins are there, but the presence of Merlot (12%) helps to soften the wine... Robert Parkers Wine Advocate. A Cabernet Sauvignon wine from California in USA. 2009 Jota, La Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain 750ml
The 2006 Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon exhibits rich, mountain-fruit intensity. Opulent aromas with a rich nose of cassis, nuances of wild strawberry and forest-earth. A small blend of Merlot, capped by some Petit Verdot provide broad tannins and spice. Black currant fruits, plum and blueberries give this wine a rich and full bodied flavor.
"The 2006 Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon exhibits rich
"Our stand-alone 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from select blocks at La Jota shines with focused cassis
Winemaker Notes - Aromas of mocha, blackberry and toast compliment the palate of clove, cinnamon, boysenberry and toast. A fine balance of oak to fruit and a wonderfully long finish tie all of these characteristics together in a wine that speaks of all that is Howell Mountain yet is approachable now.

Wine Enthusiast ReviewRated 96Classic Howell Mountain tannins, powerful and focused, but ripely sweet, frame opulent cherry, cassis, plum sauce and new oak flavors, and for all that, there's a crisp edge of acidity that makes everything clean and bright. Drink now through 2012.Wine & Spirits ReviewRated 94The graciousness of the fruit defies the tannic weight of this wine, leaving a velvet impression, remarkably approachable for a young Howell Mountain cabernet, and extremely delicious. It's from vines the Smith family, the founders of La Jota, originally planted in the late '70s. The structure is there, underpinning the fresh black fruit, the acidity edging it with eucalyptus. Plump and satin-textured on release, this should age into a beauty. Drink 2010-'12 with a grilled rib eye.Wine Tasting NotesThe Anniversary Release commemorates the anniversary of production and features small lot fermentations of the best vineyard selections. It's a deep purple color with dark fruit and a prominent spice box, tobacco, leather and toasty oak aroma. The mid-palate is pronounced with a sweet, long finish accompanied by hints of chocolate. This is a full-bodied, rich wine, full of jams and dense blackberry flavors. Its also reminiscent of a crisp autumn day on Howell Mountain when the vineyards become an aromatic mlange of pine needles, oak leaves and volcanic soils.

Straight Talk Wireless - Don't use auto pay with Straight talk phone, they ***...

Been with Straight talk from August 2012 on, phone works great, no complaints with the phone itself but the so called customer service is ***.When our first month of pre paid service ( which we paid instore with the card for $45+ tax ) was a week from expiring, I was contacted by Straigfht talk to link my credit card for auto refill on the same day each month.
For doing this Straight talk offered me a $2.50 discount each month. No discount after three months now, and with auto pay you get charged 911 fee's, fed fee's, and tax on those and other fee's, so they can eat *** as I'm taking the auto pay off.
Now I just buy a straight talk card at the store each month for $45 + sales tax only.Be forwarned with straight talk as to non customer service, *** f'n ***review #360487

Anymore straight talk service sucks period there's a day just about every month my phone is dead & I can't even use it & it's not because I don't pay it either something goes wrong with their service & you call them to tell them tgey say they don't know anything about it so you loose a whole day of service. Also one minute you have good service & the next you don't & that's not even moving so it's almost not worth the $50 anymore very disappointed with straight talk right now & I have been with them 4-5 years...0 0 Reply

I also like the service from straight talk. Unfortunately I HATE the customer service!!!! and the Auto refill!!!
spent about 45min on the phone trying to get my 15.00 back from when they took it out on auto refill but never credited to my hot spot. They can't/won't prove I used it but they refused to believe I didn't have internet for 2 weeks. And refused to let me talk with someone from the USA
they will never have access to my credit card numbers again

I had the same problem and they actually caused me some overdraft fees and guess what??? they refused to refund me this and did it two more months . Each time I called and told them to cancel auto refill (even though I cancelled it on the website and had them cancel it) they told me I was not on auto refill...no payment for the 125.0. they cost me.0 0 Reply
to barbieb Mar 18 #960308
when you sign up for auto pay refills they either tell you verbally or give you a total on your computer screen that includes the fees. My total is like & 49.86. This includes 911, taxes, etc. And the $2.50 credit for auto pay. I don't think you are able to opt out of 911 fees because a law.0 0 Reply

When I bought my first cell phone from Straight Talk, a neighbor and I each noticed that a day, sometimes two, would be stolen from our refills every month. Yes, I am aware that some months have thirty days and others have thirty-one. Straight Talk has provided excellent service, except for this one area. the convenience of having automatic deductions lulled me into thinking days would not be stolen from my cell phone on the auto-pay plan. If allowed to continue, in a few months they would be taking two deductions from my bank account.
When I refilled the plan prior to auto-pay, I walked a fine line between service interruption or refilling early and having a day stolen. It will not happen again. Today, the convenient auto-pay method will be changed back to the inconvenience of walking that fine line. That is as soon as I can find out how to do that. Their system is definitely designed to prevent anyone from discontinuing the auto-pay option. It takes diligence to change the payment method back.
Several of my cable channels have been advertising two other cell phone providers that are comparable to Straight Talk. For all I know, they might be part of the same company. Nevertheless, I am seriously considering switching to one of those companies because of this one point that is driving me nuts.
Please, if you can help me switch from auto-pay, I would appreciate it. While not as much a techie as I once was, I do know my way around a... website. I cannot change the credit card info or stop auto-pay. Aaaaaaawwwwwwwggggggghhhhhhhh!!! Help?

Contact their "customer service", speak to a live person and they will discontinue the auto pay option. Just a pain as to time wasted talking to them but yes they will stop that option.1 0 Reply

iv called the last 3 months and they say they have no record of me canceling but theyl cancel it this time. and they cant refund my money..iv been charged each month and its the same ***. i was fine letting them steal from me the first time i cancelled auto refill...but to keep charging me for 2 months after? f**k no i want all my money back now0 0 Reply

It doesn't matter if you use auto pay or not you won't lose days and haven't in the past. You could go buy 6 cards, load them all and you phone would have service for 6 thirty day increments, or 180 days. they don't go by the days in a month. its thirty days every time either way.1 0 Reply
Jul 02, 2013 #673000
its not just auto refill. it isn't straight talks fault. it is government mandated. because if you buy a card at walmart if you even pay attn to your receipt it has those fees listed. but personally i want 911 fees so i can be helped when i need it. you guys are all idiots1 4 Reply
to Anonymous Sep 03, 2013 #711102 Salt Lake City, Utah
Get a clue, 911 is active on your phone even if you don't have a plan at all, I have many old inactive phones that I can charge up, dial 911 and yes they do answer, they have to by law.....and yes when I buy my refill card at Walmart I only pay sales tax, no fee's at all on the receipt.....0 1 Reply

The other companies still have to pay that they just figure it in to the monthly rate. That's why most of the other companies rate is $50 a month and straight talks is 45.0 0 Reply

Latest Familial atrial fibrillation Stories
Stroke is the second cause of death worldwide.
Atrial fibrillation is the most common type of abnormal heart rhythm, affecting 2.5 million Americans.
Sophion and CreaCell announced today that the two companies successfully demonstrated the performances of HEK-hKir2.1 cells on QPatch HT. (PRWEB) July 12, 2012
People with rheumatoid arthritis are at a greater risk of irregular heart rhythm (known as atrial fibrillation) and stroke compared with the general population.
An irregular heartbeat — atrial fibrillation — is a strong predictor of cognitive decline and the loss of independence in daily activities in older people at risk of cardiovascular disease.
An irregular heartbeat that you don't even feel but can be picked up by a pacemaker is associated with a significantly increased risk of stroke, says a new McMaster University study.
University of Adelaide research shows that obesity is directly linked to electrical abnormalities of the heart.
The most common kind of chronically irregular heartbeat, known as atrial fibrillation, is associated with a greater risk of dementia, including Alzheimer's disease.
Researchers at Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH) have found that among women who are mostly healthy, those diagnosed with atrial fibrillation have an increased risk of death when compared to women without atrial fibrillation.
