On Banging Whitey, some of the hottest ebony chicks, including pornstar hotties like Jada Fire, Havana Ginger and Ms. Panther, agree to give white dudes the rides of their lives that would be otherwise unattainable for most of these guys. There is plenty of white-on-black action and I'm not talking about their skin color, but rather ivory dollups of sperm contrasting sharply with the dark mocha skin of these horny hotties.
The build-up of seeing black babes on BangingWhitey will have you pumped up before you even login. There are 25 movies available, but unfortunately that number is actually lower than when we were last here (I think it is safe to say that they stopped updating).
The flicks can be saved in good-quality Windows Media files and average-quality MP4s. You can also stream each scene in an embedded Flash player (they too look average). There are no pics here, just vid caps.
The action is pretty standard. There is some cock sucking going on as well as fucking and creamy facials. Most of the scenes feature one-on-one action, with a few showing a luscious black cutie taking on not one, but two Caucasian cocks for some interracial threesome fun.
The ebony gals are very hot, but I must say the whiteys in most of the videos leave a lot to be desired. If it weren't for this gig, they probably wouldn't be given a chance to get anywhere near these sexy ladies (another reason why every guy you know wants to be in porn).
Since updating stopped, you will be thankful for the access to 27 bonus sites. These are also pretty decent, but most are not updating and you won't find a ton of interracial hardcore on them. A few are Smoking Mina, Montreal Dream, Nasty Adam Eve and Amanda Amore.
Watching a white guy being granted the opportunity to lick, fuck and cum all over a gorgeous black gal's body is pretty awesome. Unfortunately, Banging Whitey falls short of its potential due to a lack of content and updating. The bonus sites help make up for this a bit, so overall you'll find a lot to check out. But you came here for interracial fucking and on that note this isn't a worthwhile membership.

Chef Charleen Badman and front-of-the-house man/wine guru Pavle Milic turned FnB, a small Scottsdale storefront, into a nationally recognized restaurant. Now they're leaving. They have informed partner Peter Kasperski that their final day at the restaurant will be Dec. 31.
The pair will be moving FnB's operation and menu (but not its name) a few doors away to Baratin, their 10-month-old café at 7125 E. Fifth Ave.
"It's a business decision," Milic says, "to consolidate all our efforts under one roof."
FnB garnered national attention soon after it opened in 2009, cited by the New York Times for its all-Arizona wine list, and by "Food & Wine" magazine, which called Badman's signature braised leeks and mozzarella one of the 10 best new dishes of 2010.
For his part, Kasperski says he and his team are "kicking around a lot of ideas" about what to do with the FnB space. "We're keeping our options open," he says, including listening to proposals from other restaurateurs.

On my way home yesterday along a riverside bike path, it was raining pretty hard in 55F weather. This was part of a quick warm up after a lot of snow and ice. I think you can see where this is going.
It was dark, and I noticed a little water on the path. But a couple hundred feet in front of me, I saw a blinkie moving forward. I assumed that the path was ridable at least to where the blinkie was. To go back would have been about a two mile diversion.
The water got deeper and deeper. I think it topped out at about where my bottom bracket was--it could have been as much as a foot deep. I could feel my panniers dragging in the water. It went on like that for 100-200 feet. Then, about 100 yards farther, I had another 50-100 foot stretch of deep water. I just kept thinking, "Keep moving forward, keep moving forward."
Fortunately, my Cross Check made it through, but I'm risking that kind of thing again. This bad decision could have had much, much worse consequences. On the plus side, I've been thinking about upgrading my crank and bottom bracket. This may move that decision from the "want" category to the "need" category.

SOITEC of France reckons that SOI wafers will represent a quarter of the 2017 28nm wafer TAM of 4-5 million 300mm wafers.
SOITEC currently has the capability to deliver 100,000 wafers per year, but is not inclined to divulge its current level of wafer shipment.
Asked if capacity could to be ramped to meet the expected increased demand, SOITEC COO Paul Boudre, replies: "We could build very quickly enough capacity to make 800,000 wafers a year." Asked to define 'very quickly', Boudre replies: "Six months."
That would take us very nicely to Q1 2014, when Samsung is expected to have its FD-SOI line up and running.
In addition, SOITEC has a factory available in Singapore. It is not fully equipped – the clean-room facilities are 20% installed – but it could be put into production in 9 – 12 months with a productive capacity of 1 million wafers a year.
Asked if higher volume will bring down the current $500 cost of a 300mm SOI wafer, Boudre replies "you know how this industry works." However Boudre declined to indicate any metric as to how wafer cost might scale with volume.
Apart from its own production facilities, SOITEC has licensed its technology to Sun-Edison and has a second source agreement with SEH. These are non-exclusive. "We can look for other licensees", says Boudre.
Asked if there was truth in the rumours that SOITEC is engaged in licensing or second-sourcing talks with the Chinese, Boudre said "No."
SOITEC is now in a position to ship SOI wafers for 20nm designs.

text: As siblings, The Band Perry shares a lot of great Christmas memories together. Kimberly remembers one of her favorite gifts was a karaoke machine. "This was way back in the day. And I remember we spent the entire Christmas day… there were only two microphones, which meant that one of us had to share, but we just wore out…me and Mariah Carey, Boys II Men. Any of those great songs from the 90s." For Neil, one of the most memorable and unique gifts their parents gave them was a horse and carriage. "We lived on this little five acre farm down in Mississippi," he explains, "and they told us about the horse. So we all ran out, Kimberly and I ran out of the house, and walked out and looked and the horse was on its back with all four legs up in the air. It had a stomach ache. So we could not actually ride the horse that day." But not wanting to disappoint his children, Kimberly says, "Our dad actually carried us around in the carriage and he sort of became the horse for the day, if you will. And our parents have just always made the holidays really special for the three of us."

Fire officials are busy managing two fires burning outside of Lolo. The West Fork II Fire and Schoolhouse Fire are now called the Lolo Creek Complex.
Officials tell us the fires, burning off Highway 12 south of Missoula, have torn through 3,500 acres.
Fire managers confirm four to eight structures are gone, some of them homes.
NBC Montana talked to Lolo resident Chuck Satterlee who lives in the Bear Creek area – he tells us he saw his pasture catch on fire right as he was evacuating.
"By the time we got there (to his house) the police were like 'you guys have got to get out of here!'" says Satterlee.
With no time to spare, he and his family grabbed their dogs and valuables and left with flames in their rearview mirror.
"The cops were like 'we're out of here,' so they left and the pasture was on fire," he tells us. "It was just like I could have been a little more prepared with sprinklers on top of the house."
Satterlee ran his sprinklers through the night and all morning. He's hoping the effort will leave his family a home to return to.
"I flipped the water back on so hopefully the electricity lasts for a while," Satterlee says.
Lolo resident Gerald Mininger thought he lost two dogs in the fire, only to learn they were saved by his neighbor Lyra Kester.
"I wouldn't have cared about anything but my dogs," Mininger tells us. "The house can burn, the garage can burn, but not my dogs."
Mininger tells NBC Montana Kester was so determined to save his dogs she broke down his door.
"I will love her for the rest of my life," Mininger says chuckling.
Satterlee tells us he may lose his house but he's grateful that he and his family were able to grab their computers and photo albums before they left.
"We're not really too worried about it because the Lord has given us a great place and he takes care of us so we'll be good," he says. "If it goes we'll be fine -- something better will come along and it's always been that way."
Satterlee says he has one cat that he couldn't find and he hopes she's OK.
Montana Red Cross has opened a shelter for residents displaced by the fire. The evacuation shelter is available at Christ the King Church at 1400 Gerald Street in Missoula.
There is also an information hotline set up at (406) 258-4636.

Quality, authentic Indochinese cuisine
"The Banana Tree family is all about our food led values which without doubt have been the foundation of our continuous success for so many years, and which we promise to maintain for many years to come!"
Founder and head chef, William Chow, opened his first 36 seater 'Indo-Chinese' cafe in West London 21 years ago, leading to Banana Tree, which currently has 6 locations across London. I've found myself at Banana Tree Soho several times now – generally not as a first choice but as more of a backup once I get told I'll have to wait two hours for a table everywhere else in Soho. You can't book unless you're a group of 6 or more but I've never had to wait more than a few minutes.
The menu is made up of dishes and specialities from the Indochina region, the lemongrass growing countries of South East Asia that include Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Thailand and the peninsula of Malaysia and Singapore. The decor at the Banana Tree Soho branch is very industrial and there are some Wagamama style long communal table as well as more intimate ones. It looks cool but prepare yourself for some pretty uncomfortable seating.
Banana Tree's Kajang Satay comes with the most authentic satay sauce I've had in London with 6 sticks for £8.50 or 10 for £12.50 and comes with steamed palm leaf rice and cucumber & red onion trimmings as you'd get in Malaysia. The Green Papaya Salad (£5.90) is also very authentic although maybe not as hot as you'd get it in Thailand.
There's plenty of choice on the menu, from wok fried or soup based noodle dishes to curries, stews and char grilled meats. Their Legendary Rendang (£10.80) is made with prime lean beef slow cooked for up to 4 hours until a thick dry fragrant sauce is achieved. It's a very good rendang with a very rich sauce but I find the meat quite dry and it doesn't beat my Nan's.
Keep an eye out for the sides as they're great value with Noodles with Bean Sprouts & Dark Soy for just £3.70 and Stir Fried Pak Choy in Garlic for £4.50. There's also a combo option which gives you a sesame glass noodle salad, sweet corn cakes, spicy crackers and steamed jasmine rice for an extra £3.25 if you order a regional speciality, curry or stew.
Banana Tree is one of several small chains along with Busaba Eathai and Wahaca producing a high level of cuisine and good value for money. I know chains aren't cool and you should support the independents and I agree with that, (especially when it comes to coffee) but if a chain is doing it this well then there's no argument.

School districts try hard but can't get test scores up
Mr. D'Angelo's quip "I fear that students and parents will now more than ever try to implicate us in their misplaced blame for their own inadequacies as parents" would be laughable if sentence construction wasn't so poor. This is the vice president of the teachers' union for crying out loud. The inadequacies of Mr. D'Angelo and the teachers union are being screamed from all the local newspapers with the test scores of most of the schools in the area having dipped as evidence.
The school districts are specifically teaching what is on these tests and they still can't get the scores to go up? Some in the union are now saying that because of budget cuts, they couldn't give individual tutoring after hours resulting in the drop in test scores. What they want is for taxpayers to throw good money after bad. If they can't get the subject taught in eight hours during the day, what is the point of spending $30 an hour or more to tutor students one-on-one after hours? Or are they having other "proficient" students tutor the "less than proficient" students?
Test scores that dip 11 percent speak of someone changing answers after tests were taken to raise scores for those schools and now they can't cheat because the rules have been tightened. To have a school's test scores drop that much you would have to give the students the answer sheet and no test booklet.
If the miscreant posing as a teacher in the article was a student, the "⦠I can't stand you â¦" and asking if the student has Tourette syndrome would be called bullying by today's standards, if you can call what they have standards.
The kid was probably being a complete jerk and deserved to get his ears boxed, but it's been 40 years since teachers could do that
If you really want to get something done, change the laws so that kids who don't give a crap, just the like the teachers who don't give a crap, get tossed out on their ear so everyone who wants to learn there can do so without the dead weight on either side of the chalkboard.

The U.S. Economic Development Administration has awarded Tulane University a $3 million grant to help build RiverSphere, a Center of Excellence at Tulane that will promote the development, testing, demonstration and commercialization of renewable energy technology, using one of New Orleans' greatest natural resources – the Mississippi River.
RiverSphere will be a research center, an education facility, an exhibition space and a business incubator focused on water sustainability and renewable energy. The facility, located at the Robin Street Wharf, will include floating barges on which private companies can test prototypes of power turbines capable of generating electricity using river currents. The project's business incubator will be a catalyst for the creation and support of "green" energy jobs and will help make New Orleans an exporter of sustainable energy technologies and intellectual capital throughout the country.
"The Obama administration is committed to creating jobs, encouraging innovation and improving our nation's economic competitiveness," said U.S. Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Economic Development, John R. Fernandez. "This EDA investment will work to ensure the long-term resiliency of the greater New Orleans area by supporting Tulane University's efforts to grow and commercialize innovation in the alternative energy sector."
The grant, which is funded through supplemental disaster appropriations from hurricanes Katrina and Rita, will be used to convert a 22,000 square-foot warehouse next to Blaine Kern's Mardi Gras World into the RiverSphere campus.
"RiverSphere will focus initially on "in-stream" hydrokinetic technologies that harness the power of the Mississippi River to generate carbon-free electricity," said Douglas Meffert, RiverSphere executive director and deputy director for policy at the Tulane/Xavier Center for Bioenvironmental Research. "RiverSphere will be a place to explore the most cost-effective and environmentally safe energy solutions for New Orleans, Southeast Louisiana and similar geographies around the world."
The RiverSphere hydrokinetic turbine testing facility will be the nation's first "vendor-neutral" in-stream demonstration site, meaning that it will be open for use by multiple companies. The data gathered in testing the ecological, navigational, hydrological and other potential impacts of these technologies will play a key role in determining how they can be deployed in the most environmentally sensitive way while generating as much electricity as possible. The RiverSphere incubator will host a variety of technologies in order to help more companies obtain the proof they need for commercialization and deployment worldwide.
RiverSphere also will house laboratories where researchers can work to further understanding of the hydrology and ecology of the Lower Mississippi River Deltaic Plain, especially as it relates to the sustainability and viability of nearby communities. Planned exhibition space will be open to the public, serving as a key component of New Orleans riverfront revitalization efforts.
RiverSphere supporters include the Port of New Orleans, Blaine Kern Studios/Mardi Gras World (a co-tenant at the site), the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources, The Alliance for Affordable Energy, American Rivers and a number of hydrokinetic turbine manufacturers and vendors.
More information about RiverSphere is available online at http://www.riverweb.org .

An Alabama Federal Judge has set a February 18 deadline for Attorney General Bill Pryor's response to a lawsuit asking him to reinstate ousted Chief Justice Roy Moore.
The Judge will then decide whether or not the lawsuit will go to court.
This is just the latest legal action taken since Roy Moore was removed from the high bench last year for re-fusing to remove a Ten Commandments monument from the Alabama Judicial Building.

Illinois Senate Republicans have introduced a bill on education funding.
The measure would require the state to cover the full recommended per-pupil amount of general state aid recommended by the Education Funding Advisory Board, an amount the
state now covers at 89 percent.
"We will fully fund the foundation formula – no proration, we will fully fund the formula before putting any money in any other area of the education budget," State Sen. Dale Righter (R-Mattoon) said.
But that's a problem, says State Sen. Andy Manar (D-Bunker Hill), who is pushing a re-write
of the entire formula. "You're simply shifting the pain to other areas of the budget with in the state board's appropriation, which should cause major concerns for things such as special ed, for bilingual education, for transportation," he said.
The state pumps $3.7 billion into public schools via the general state aid formula, and $3 billion under other programs.

Katie Couric Will Host Talk Show On ABC During General Hospital's Timeslot In 2012
By Mack Rawden 5 years ago comments
Well, its official. Verifying one of the worst kept secrets in the history of television, ABC has announced Katie Couric will in fact host a daytime talk show on its airwaves. The former anchor has long been questioned for leaving a job she was great at (The Today Show) for a job she was mediocre at (CBS Evening News). This new Oprah-like position will firmly place her back within her comfort zone and may actually prove to be a financial windfall.
In addition to receiving a yet-unreported salary from ABC, Couric will also own a percentage of the show itself, meaning if its popular, shell make out handsomely. The still-unnamed vehicle will be produced by the hosts former boss, Jeff Zucker, who was recently let go from NBC. Together, theyll hammer out all the specifics and carve out a format to debut in September of 2012.
As for the timeslot, ABC has decided to give Couric General Hospitals hour at 3 PM. What that entails for one of the last remaining daytime soap operas is anyones guess, but according to Deadline, network spokesmen have said they have no plans on cancelling the long-running melodrama. In all likelihood, one of ABCs new daytime programs, either The Chew or The Revolution, will prove to be a bust, opening up a free hour to slot General Hospital back in.
Unwilling to completely steer from the hard news shes broadcast for the last five years, Courics new contract will also allow her to contribute periodic reports for Nightline and other ABC News properties. Expect the frequency of those cameos to be inversely proportional to the ratings for her new show. If it crushes, shell likely focus more of her efforts on that. If it idles in mediocrity, expect those filings to become a regular thing.

Companies Lighting the Way of Government Regulations
Two of the most used incandescent light bulbs (among industrial, commercial, and residential industries) are the 40-watt bulb and the 60-watt bulb. As of January 1, 2014, however, U.S. manufacturers are no longer legally allowed to produce these bulbs, so the 40-watt and 60-watt bulbs you see on your local home improvement store shelves are the last of their kind.
This move is just one of many that has been or will be implemented in order to push the U.S. toward a more energy-efficient lifestyle. With incandescent bulbs out of the picture, the government hopes Americans will turn to greener alternatives such as compact fluorescent lights (or CFLs) and light- emitting diodes (or LEDs), both of which cost more than incandescent bulbs, but have longer lifespans and a lower power usage.
While some of the most significant changes to the lighting industry have been made recently, this idea began back in 2007 when President George W. Bush signed an act called the "Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007." According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency's website, this act aimed to:
•Move the United States toward greater energy independence and security
•Increase the production of clean renewable fuels
•Protect consumers
•Increase the efficiency of products, buildings, and vehicles
•Promote research on and deploy greenhouse gas capture and storage options
•Improve the energy performance of the Federal Government
•Increase U.S. energy security, develop renewable fuel production, and improve vehicle fuel
In 2011, the Republican Party introduced the Better Use of Light Bulbs Act, which tried to repeal parts of the 2007 act including the phase-out of incandescent light bulbs. The act failed, however. While Democrats were the minority in the House of Representatives, the Republican votes didn't add up to a two-thirds majority and the provisions of the 2007 act continued.
While a push toward greener light bulbs can be considered a good idea, it can also cause problems for fixture OEMs that rely on incandescent light bulbs for their fixtures. One company with a solution to this problem is Aamsco Lighting, an innovative lighting company based in South Carolina. They are introducing a Hybrid LED that more closely resembles the shape & color of a standard incandescent bulb.
This company has also produced unique luminaires since 1975 and one of their most popular is called the Alinea LED Fixture, which is perfect for residential and hospitality use. The fixture features the soft, warm light of an incandescent while incorporating the long-lasting light of an LED and is fully dimmable.
In addition to promoting energy-efficient light bulbs, the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 is also responsible for the rise in electric cars, the increase in biofuel production, the push toward greener buildings, and the advance in solar and geothermal research. While the act is still in effect, we will continue to experience restrictions on incandescent light bulbs and a push for CFL and LED light bulbs. Look to Aamsco for innovative lighting solutions for now and the future.

I started a thread a few weeks ago about possibly returning to the the gym as rehab for a series of knee injuries. I got the go-ahead from my physio and joined my local gym last week. I've been four times so far.
I went to the gym regularly for ten years, but then boredom set in and I lost interest when I started cycling again. The last four sessions have reminded me why I gave it up and I go without any enthusiasm. I've never liked exercise for it's own sake and dislike the constant music background, the multi-televisions ( :50: ) and exercising indoors.
I'm not going to give it up and will continue for a few months as it's essential to build up the strength in my left leg, especially as cycling is limited during the winter.
How do members of this forum maintain their interest in the gym?

If money makes the world go round, Gauteng is one of its major axes. Meaning 'the place where the gold
is' Gauteng is the economic powerhouse of Africa. It is South Africa's
smallest, wealthiest and most frenetic province. Everything moves fast
- cars zoom down the highways, people walk fast through the malls and
offices, and new buildings spring up on the drab brown Highveld like so
many glass and chrome mushrooms. The whole place buzzes with the energy
of making money and spending money. Johannesburg and Gauteng are virtually synonymous but there's more to this province than the hectic Jozi. Pretoria is a laid back city with some lovely old buildings and a wealth of cultural attractions. The restored mining village of Cullinan is worth a visit for its lovely old buildings as well a mine tour and the opportunity to buy diamonds on site.
There are a number of small nature reserves where you could go for walk, or even a horse ride, and see some game. You could go hot air ballooning, paragliding or skydiving. Or take a flip in a vintage plane. A tour of the Cradle of Humankind, which is a world heritage site, offers a new way of looking at human history and prehistory.Being
such a small province, Gauteng is virtually a hub, with easy access to
attractions in neighbouring provinces, most notably the Free State and North West Province.

Yes, certainly you can sign contracts to take effect some time later - that's done all the time.
You would just have the start and end dates 5 years later.
So for example - this contract between A and B is to start on ___________ (date you want it to start - 5 years from now) and end or terminate on _____________ (date you want it to end - that would even be 10 years from now).
The thing ou have to get is consideration for this contract - a contract isn't good without consideration ie. $1.00 (one dollar). But you can state to the effect that one dollar hereinafter exchanged for entering this contract.
Then later in the contract your going to have to spell out what the charges will be for your services.

Hi guys and gals,
I was wondering if anyone knows of any REALLY good deals on a new or used road frame? I would like to build up a SS for commuting, especially since the weather has started to turn foul. Horizontal or Vertical drop outs not an issue really as I have an ENO hub and could use either. Considering the amount of road salt this ride may end up seeing, I'm not looking at spending a mint on it, maybe about a couple hundred on it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

physiology notes:
Immune System
Notes: Immune System
1. Role of:
a. Neutrophils: act as phagocytes against antigens
b. Eosinophils: detoxification; can break down clots; defense against worm
parasites and ↑during allergy infections
c. Basophils: contain histamines; may also release heparin, an anticoagulant
d. Monocytes: Phagocytic; can develop into macrophages in connective tissue
e. Lymphocytes: produced in bone marrow; stored in lymphatic tissue
-B cells: produce antibodies; humoral response
-T cells: kills cells directly
2. Nonspecific immunity: defenses that attack all pathogens that have not specificity; mediated by leukocytes that are not lymphocytes.
3. Phagocytosis: when immune system cells wrap their membranes around the pathogens and encase them in a vacuole; these may be neutrophils, monocytes, or macrophages.
4. Chemotaxis: using a chemical signal that attracts leukocytes to the site of the invading microbe.
5. Diapedesis: ability of phagocytic cells form blood to squeeze out of blood capillaries into infected tissue to fight invaders.
6. Role of interferons: small proteins released by cells invaded by viruses to help block protein synthesis in other cells and thus interfere with the viral replication process.
7. Fever: high body temperature can increase the activity of neutrophils and ↑ production of interferons; fever also ↓ availability of zinc and iron that bacteria need for their metabolism.
8. Endogenous pyrogens: produced by monocytes and macrophages; act on hypothalamus to increase body temperature→ fever.
9. Specific immunity: mediated by lymphocytes; attack specific microbes; antibodies and memory cells involved.
10. Antigen: specific protein substances that stimulate the production of antibodies.
11. Antigenic determinant: the specific portion of the antigen that the antibody will bind with.
12. Antibodies: (immunoglobins) are the gamma globulin portion of blood proteins; produced by B cells (plasma cells); contain heavy and light chains, variable and constant regions; inactivate antigens.
13. Structure of antibody: Y-shaped; constant regions are same in all; variable region designed to fit a specific antigenic determinant; somatic recombinations produce over 1 billion gene arrangements to combat the high number of antigens.
14. B lymphocytes: activated by direct contact with antigens; they become plasma cells→ antibodies.
15. Complement system: 11 proteins from liver that bind with antigen; puncture bacterial membrane and destroy the bacteria cell
16. Reactions:
a. Chemotaxis: attraction of phagocytic cells to infection site
b. opsonization: coating the walls of the bacteria to allow for adherence by leukocytes
c. Histamine release: from mast cells; causes vasodilation and capillary permeability to allow more phagocytic cells to enter infected cell→ inflammation
d. Inflammation: ↓ spreading of invading agents to adjacent tissues; rids tissues of pathogens; helps repair
17. Active immunity: recognition of previous invaders (memory cells); allows rapid response to invasion.
18. Primary response: first exposure→ 5 to 10 days for antibody production.
Secondary response: maximum antibody response= 2 hours; immune response.
19. Clonal selection theory: B cells → antibodies against specific antigen; memory cells remain in body
20. Plasma cells: formed from B cells; produce antibodies
21. Killer T cells: actively destroy bacterial cells, viral infected cells, and tumor cells; Produce perforins that make holes in cell membranes.
Helper T cells: enhance activity of B cells and Killer T cells
Suppressor T cells: shut down activities of B cells and Killer T cells after infection is arrested.
22. Lymphokines; secreted by T cells; activate killer T cells and macrophages; some activate B cells.
23. T lymphocyte activation: T cells do not bind to antigens; must have an antigen presenting cell (macrophage)
Macrophages engulf antigens; their lysosomes move to cell surface with antigen exposed; histocompatibility molecules determined if foreign; a complex forms;
T cells then activated
24. Histocompatabiliy: cell surface proteins serving as markers; MHS class I on all cells, class II on leukocytes.
25. Allergic reaction: allergen stimulates release of histamine from mast cells (cross binding of allergen with IgE molecules attached to mast cells); produces edema, mucous release, constriction of respiratory passages.
26. Anaphylatic shock: may be life threatening; circulatory collapse, bronchioles constrict, swelling of tongue; relieved by epinephrine.
27. Monoclonal antibodies: specific antibody fused with cancer cell→ hybridoma; when hybridoma divides, it produces more of the antibody.

Adam Shapiro To Guest Star In Scandal
By Jessica Rawden 3 years ago comments
Scandal is returning to ABCs schedule this week, but the show has been gearing up for its winter premiere for a while and an upcoming episode will explore Quinns (Katie Lowes) tumultuous past, yet again. Viewers will be introduced to Quinns former love, and Lowes real-life husband, Adam Shapiro, has signed on for the role. Let it be known there are some spoilers in the next couple of paragraphs, if you aren't fully caught up on the show.
Shapiro can currently be seen as a snarky reporter in NBCs brand new comedy, 1600 Penn, but hell hop over to ABCs drama for at least one episode. According to TV Line, Shapiro will play Jesse, Quinns former boyfriend, whom weve known has been dead ever since Quinns past life was unearthed. So, how ever will a man killed by a bomb return to life on a TV show?
Apparently, Scandal will stick with the ol flashback narrative to give audiences a peek at Quinns life before she was, well, Quinn. Fans will get to see Quinn when she was Lindsey, a young woman living a romantic life with her beau. Fans will also get to see more from the frame job that we first learned about at the beginning of Season 2.
I always love it when real-life couples pop up onscreen together, and its even better when those couples get to implement real chemistry in an acting gig. My personal favorite cute couple joining the same show has lately been when Michael Emersons wife, Carrie Preston, pops up in episodes of Person of Interest with their love lost premise, but maybe Shapiro and Lowes will be able to give them a run for their money.
ABCs Scandal returns to the schedule on Thursday, January 10 at 10 p.m. ET.

Bankruptcy Law
Bankruptcy Law Questions? Ask a Bankruptcy Lawyer Now.
Your home should not be in jeopardy. The Florida homestead exemption law offers virtually absolute protection from forced sale to meet the demands of creditors, except under three special circumstances. These are: (1) The State of Florida and its counties or municipalities, to collect past due property taxes; (2) Parties to whom the property was specifically pledged as credit for a mortgage; (3)Mechanics who are owed money for work performed in repairing or improving the property.
One unique feature of Florida's homestead exemption is that it attaches to proceeds from the sale of a home, if the homeowner intends to use those proceeds to establish a new Florida homestead within a reasonable time. Therefore, if the owner of a $1,000,000 home sells that home and puts the money in a bank account, that money is still protected by the homestead exemption, so long as the homeowner has a bona fide intent to use it to purchase another home in Florida entitled to the exemption within a reasonable period of time. This protection is lost if the funds are commingled with other funds not designated for such a purchase. Also, the protection only extends to the amount the owner intends to invest in a new homestead - if the owner of a $1,000,000 home sells that home, and makes clear his intent to purchase a $750,000 home, the remaining $250,000 will lose its protection.
As for an inheritance, it is considered income and can be attached by a creditor.

With its growth slowing, China has recently begun to unveil some new stimulus measures to get its economy moving once again. This past week, Beijing cut state-set gasoline and diesel prices for the second time in a month and lowered interest rates for first time in almost four years. Overall, analysts at Credit Suisse (NYSE:CS) estimate that China will undergo nearly $315 billion worth of economic stimulus spending in order to reignite its slowing growth. One area, which is expected to see the bulk of that spending, is on infrastructure projects. Already, The National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), has been accelerating construction approvals within the nation. For investors, now could be the time to bet on the beleaguered steel sector.
Investopedia Broker Guides: Enhance your trading with the tools from today's top online brokers.
Big Construction Projects
Since the beginning of the year, the NDRC has approved more than twice as many investment projects as it did in the same period a year earlier. Between January and April, the central planning council gave the go ahead to more than 860 different large scale projects ranging from hospitals and water treatment plants to clean energy facilities including wind, solar and hydroelectric power. Likewise, new policies to drive domestic appliance and automobile demand in the nation have also been unveiled.
SEE: Stimulus Spending: When It Fails And Why
Officials are predicted to be more conservative this time around as too much investment could worsen capacity issues in some sectors, and that its banks can't afford a second lending binge. The latest NDRC approval was $23 billion worth of new steel projects as the nation deals with slowing industrial growth. The new Baosteel and Wuhan Iron & Steel Group plants have been on hold since 2009, citing overcapacity in the industry. Baosteel's project will increase its production capacity by 2.3% to about 53 million tons, while the Wuhan mill in China's southwestern region, will add 8.5 million tons of annual capacity or 22%.
According to industry group, the China Iron & Steel Association, demand for the world's biggest consumer of steel should rise by as much 25% by 2015. However, as these projected stimulus measures take hold, the beaten down steel industry could finally get a break.
SEE: An Overview of Commodities Trading
Betting on the Steel Producers
With China ramping up the stimulus-machine once again, it could finally be time to bet on the steel producers. Overall, the sector has fallen hard as global growth continues to be anemic and represents a real value in the commodities sector. With over $130 million in assets, the Market Vectors Steel ETF (ARCA:SLX) is the biggest and most heavily traded fund in the sector. The exchange-traded fund tracks 27 different holdings, including producers like Nucor (NYSE:NUE) and POSCO (NYSE:PKX). The fund, which is currently $30 below its 52-week high, can be had for a dirt cheap P/E of just 10 and at a 2.21% yield. Tracking a wider swath of firms at 70, the PowerShares Global Steel (Nasdaq:PSTL) can also be used as a broad play.
Perhaps the biggest winners in China's resuming steel binge could be the producers of iron ore. Prices for the critical component in steel production currently sit at around $130 per metric ton. However, analysts expect the new stimulus measures to push prices upwards to average $152 in the second half of the year. That'll directly benefit both Rio Tinto (NYSE:RIO) and BHP Billiton (NYSE:BHP, BBL). China is the largest customer for both companies, representing 31 and 28% in sales, respectively. Likewise, coking coal is expected to rise 7% this year based on the stimulus measures. That should help boost shares of coal-miner Peabody (NYSE:BTU).
SEE: The Role Of Speculators In The Commodity Market
The Bottom Line
With its economy is beginning to slow, China has begun to unveil some new stimulus measures to boost sagging growth. That includes fast tracking major infrastructure and public works projects. Those new construction efforts could finally be the catalyst needed to ignite the beleaguered steel sector. For investors, adding a dose of steel related equities like producer Steel Dynamics (Nasdaq:STLD) could be great bet on China's growth.

Tough day for Tiger; Furyk, Love share lead
Eds: Optional
AP Photos FLJR101-148
By DOUG FERGUSON
AP Golf Writer
PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. (AP) Tiger Woods described his day as "sporadic," which could have meant a golf game that left him seven shots behind Thursday at The Players Championship, or a mind that wandered between his ailing father in California and the perils of the TPC at Sawgrass.
He wasn't fatigued from a 24-hour, coast-to-coast trip to check on Earl Woods.
Nor was he disgusted with five bogeys that offset five birdies on a cool, damp afternoon that left him closer to the cut line than the 7-under 65s posted early by Davis Love III and Jim Furyk.
After an even-par 72, Woods spoke as much about putting as perspective.
"You hit a bad shot and you want to get upset with yourself because you know you can hit better shots," Woods said. "But you know what? In the whole scheme of things, it's just a golf shot."
His 74-year-old father's body is wracked with cancer, and Woods said he flew home to lift his spirits. Golf was not part of their conversation.
"It's not about me hitting golf shots. It's about him," Woods said. "I want him around as long as possible. It's all about him feeling better, and keep fighting and keep hanging in there."
As Woods pulled into the parking lot, Love and Furyk were on a different pace on the course, headed for the same destination. Love started quickly and was steady to the end, while Furyk – his dinner companion the night before – opened with seven pars and closed with a 31 on the back nine.
They had a two-shot lead over Robert Allenby, Miguel Angel Jimenez and Bernhard Langer, who conquered the treacherous island-green 17th with his 20th career birdie. Vijay Singh was among those another shot behind on a cool, but calm day on the Stadium Course.
"The course is there," Love said. "If you hit it in the fairways and putted, you were going to do well."
Any memories for Love would have been warm ones, especially on this golf course where he has won twice, even in a rain suit that he wore from start-to-finish, even though he and the other early starters go only a few sprinkles.
"After 4 under through nine, it wasn't going to come off," he said.
He had on navy rain gear three years ago in cool, blustery conditions when Love closed with a 64, matching the best closing round by a winner at The Players Championship.
If it wasn't the attire, maybe it was something in the casserole at Furyk's house Wednesday night, a small gathering that included Furyk, Love, Brad Faxon (70), Phil Mickelson (70) and Justin Leonard (75).
"It must have been real good, because it worked for Jim and I," Love said.
Mickelson had five birdies, but he dunked his tee shot on the 17th for double bogey, hit a tee shot in the water at No. 15 and scrambled for bogey, and wound up with a 70.
"Maybe Phil didn't eat enough," Love said.
Furyk played with Love, although it took a while to join him in the charge up the leaderboard. He opened with seven pars before hitting a hybrid club into 20 feet on the 219-yard eighth hole and making birdie, then making a 25-foot birdie on the par-5 ninth to get him going.
It was the first time in 11 starts at The Players Championship that Furyk broke 70.
"There are times when you get off to a start like that, look up on the leaderboard and see guys getting off to a good start, and it's hard to stay patient," Furyk said. "I stayed patient, and just let it happen."
He didn't need a leaderboard to see a good start.
Love hit 4-iron into the par-5 second for a two-putt birdie, hit 9-iron into 2 feet for birdie on the sixth, then nearly holed out his 4-iron on No. 8, leaving him a tap-in birdie. Having played so well on this course, his vision of this Pete Dye creation is far different from so many others.
Take the par-3 eighth, one of the toughest on the course.
"When I get up there, I say, 'This hole has always been good to me,' rather than going, 'It's hard to hit this green.' I'm thinking positive thoughts," Love said. "When you have a place where you're comfortable, it makes it easier. I feel good everywhere on this course."
Woods left Florida on Tuesday afternoon and came home late Wednesday, about 12 hours before his tee time. He made no excuses for his 72, and offered no details what caused him to leave, and why he came back. He thought about his father, but he said he had plenty of time to prepare for each shot.
He just didn't hit them all very well.
"Unfortunately, my mechanics weren't very good," Woods said.
He said it helped that he played with Darren Clarke, whose wife, Heather, is dying from cancer that has spread throughout her body. Woods said they spoke about their situations throughout the round.
"It's just one of those things you deal with," Woods said. "Everyone has to deal with that at some point in their life, and unfortunately, right now it's our time."
It was taxing enough dealing with the Stadium Course, where double bogeys or worse await the slightest mistake. No hole can be more punishing than the infamous 17th, where Scott McCarron (82) and Bob Estes (74) each took three shots before they were safely on land.
But for all the water and there's a lot of it at Sawgrass the biggest problem was the thick, wet rough.
D.J. Trahan tried to muscle a shot out of the rough on the par-5 ninth and couldn't clear the water. And that wasn't the worst of it. After taking a drop and hitting just short of the green, Trahan was in rough so deep that he hit the ball twice with his chip, another penalty. He wound up with a 9 and shot 76.
"If you were in the fairway, the course played OK," Love said. "And if you weren't, it played tough."

The amount you consume is a split dose of 5 ounces (preferred method), the first dose is followed by 5 8 oz. glasses of a clear liquid, and the second dose on the morning of the colonoscopy is followed by 3 8oz. Glasses of liquid.
The taste is surprisingly pleasant, it has a mild lemon taste (not at all salty) - unlike any preps I have previously used. Really, quite doable!
it tastes like an orange piece of candy. one big gulp and it is down-then just waiting time
CAUTION: I took PREPOPIK Thurs. It tasted decent. I'm healthy and fit. I developed a severe headache, stomach ache and nausea. I almost threw up the 2nd dose. Miserable night! Four days later (post-successful colonoscopy) I have indigestion/heatburn, gas, mild pressure in the lower chest, intestinal "rumbling", mild light headedness and mild heart palipitations. I believe SOME of this is lingering effects from the Prepopik. READ ALL THE CAUTIONS BEFORE CHOOSING THIS DRUG. I DON'T RECOMMEND IT.

This is my 3rd colonoscopy and just used Prepopik.
By a mile, the BEST & MOST TOLERABLE prep I have ever used!
No salty, gritty taste at all! Tastes like just like orange soda.
My doctor said I could mix the powder with any clear liquid. So, instead of cold water, I mixed it with white cranberry juice, not at all bad!
I have already had 16 of the 40 ozs of the required clear liquid you must drink following the first Prepopik dose.
Hopefully, this prep stays on the market as I would never use any other again!

Papi awaits call
Mike Papi has seen all the projections and has heard all the speculation.
If he has heard the word signability once, he's heard it close to 30 times.
That comes with the territory when you are ranked among the top 50 draft eligible prospects in the country.
Major League Baseball's First-Year Player Draft begins tonight and there stands a chance Papi, a Tukhannock grad and current junior at the University of Virginia may hear his name before the second round is over.
"Anything can happen. It's just all speculation," Papi said Wednesday afternoon as the Cavaliers prepared to play in Saturday's super regional against Maryland. "You just never know what can happen. It's all based on how much a team wants you and how your body of work fits in their organization."
Baseball America ranks the 6-foot-3, 210-pound Papi as the 43rd best prospect in the country. He's moved up two spots from where he was ranked last week. The magazine also projects Papi going to the St. Louis Cardinals with the 34th overall pick.
Papi enters the super regional with a team-best 11 home runs and 51 RBIs. He's second on the team with a .297 average.
Papi, who projects as a corner outfielder or first baseman, has been through this process before. As a senior at Tunkhannock he was drafted by the Los Angeles Angels in the 30th round but elected to attend Virginia.
"Our coach designated a couple of days that allowed teams to reach out and talk about signability," Papi said. "He was not willing to allow teams to keep calling and bug us while we are trying to make a run. I agree with it because you don't want individual players thinking too much about the draft."
If all the projections come true, the Virginia players won't have to spend too much time worrying about the draft and by the time they take the field Saturday for their first game against Maryland, their names will most likely have already been called.
"They didn't talk round, they just want a feeling of what your signability is and what you want and where you want to be," Papi said. "They just want to get a relationship with you that if they draft you."
Having the draft coincide with preparing for a three-game series this weekend has given Papi the opportunity to think about something other than the draft.
The goal for the Cavaliers is to get to Omaha, Nebraska and being this close, Papi is not about to let personal accolades interfere with a chance to win a national championship.
"I think it is a great thing for us that the draft will be pretty much over before we start our games," Papi said. "It won't be on anyone's mind. Last year we had a couple of guys drafted while we were playing. That kind of added inside pressure to the other players. This year having it pretty much over going into regionals, we can just relax and take our minds off it and focus on the games."
