Pathway Focus: The T-Cell Receptor Pathway
- Broad dynamic range—0.06 to 6,000 pmol (5 logs)
- Flexible—can be used in manual or automated, high-throughput formats
- Simple—sample dilution not necessary
Our competitive, heterogeneous cAMP-Screen® and cAMP-Screen Direct® immunoassays measure cAMP directly from cell lysates at levels as low as 0.06 to 6,000 pmol, without requiring any sample dilution. Detection is complete typically within 90 minutes, utilizes chemiluminescence, and is amenable for use in automated, high-throughput screening applications.
Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is an important second-messenger in many signal transduction pathways linking activation of cell surface membrane receptors to intracellular responses and, ultimately, to changes in gene expression. The second-messenger cAMP plays a rather complicated role in T cell receptor activation. T cell receptor activation stimulates cAMP production; however, cAMP as part of a negative feedback loop inhibits T cell function and proliferation (Mol Cell Biol 30:1660–1672 (2010)).
The sensitivity and simplicity of the cAMP-Screen Direct® assay provides a powerful tool to measure small changes in cAMP levels, important in the elucidation of the role of cAMP in T cell receptor activation.

- Fixable and permeable dyes, in all detectable colors
- Adaptable to many platforms, including traditional imaging, high-content screening, and flow cytometry
In one activation pathway, cell surface ligand binding to T lymphocytes results in the hydrolysis of membrane phosphoinositides, and the hydrolytic products, IP3 and DAG, act as second-messengers to mobilize Ca2+ from both intracellular and extracellular stores. This increase in free cytoplasmic Ca2+ is important for the activation of PKC, which in turn activates IL-2, instrumental in the activation and proliferation of T cells. To measure the increase in intracellular Ca2+, we offer various Molecular Probes® indicators that cover a wide dynamic and spectral range.
Ion-sensitive probes have enabled researchers to investigate changes in intracellular free Ca2+ concentrations using fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, and fluorescence spectroscopy. The properties and applications of these fluorescent indicators—most of which are derivatives of the Ca2+ chelators EGTA, APTRA, and BAPTA—have been extensively reviewed in the literature.
A few of these molecules are useful to monitor real-time increases in free cytoplasmic Ca2+ in live cells, and many of these indicators are also fixable, for flexibility in detecting Ca2+ increases at different stages. These advantages make cytoplasmic Ca2+ indicators valuable tools for the study of the T cell pathway and T cell activation.

- DEVD substrate, specific for caspase-3/7 with absorption/emission maxima of ~502/530 nm
- Simple, no-wash protocol preserves delicate apoptotic cells
- Suitable for live-cell fluorescence imaging, enabling continuous monitoring of dynamic events
- Compatible with formaldehyde-based fixation methods, facilitating convenient processing for endpoint assays
During development in the thymus, T cells that fail to produce a functional T cell receptor or that fail to bind self MHC class I molecules with the correct affinity are destroyed by apoptosis. Although mechanisms vary, cysteine aspartic acid proteases, or caspases, play a key role in initiating and executing apoptosis, making the activation of caspases one of the more definitive markers of programmed cell death.
The CellEvent™ Caspase-3/7 Green Detection Reagent comprises a DEVD peptide sequence conjugated to a nucleic acid–binding dye. In the presence of activated caspases-3 and -7, the CellEvent™ reagent fluoresces bright green (monitored with a standard FITC filter set, see figure). This robust assay enables researchers to examine caspase-3 and -7 activation in live cells. Furthermore, since wash steps are not necessary for detection, fragile apoptotic cells typically lost during wash steps are retained. Importantly, the fluorescent signal from CellEvent™ Caspase-3/7 Detection Reagent can survive fixation and permeabilization. This allows flexibility to perform endpoint assays and to probe the sample for other proteins of interest using immunocytochemistry.

HepG2 cells were either treated with a DMSO control (A) or with 50 µM nefazodone (B) for 24 hours. During the last 30 minutes of this treatment, the cells were stained with 5 µM CellROX™ Deep Red Reagent, Hoechst 33342, and 5 µM CellEvent™ Caspase-3/7 Green Detection Reagent. Cells were analyzed on a Thermo Fisher Cellomics ArrayScan® VTI. Cells not treated with nefazodone (A) show very little signal from either the oxidative stress or apoptosis detection reagent, as opposed to the treated cells (B).

- Accurate measurement of IL-2 in serum, plasma, or supernatant
- Consistent and reliable results (<10% CV)
- Incubation time typically only 3 hours
IL-2, also known as T cell growth factor, is a cytokine released by activated CD4+ T cells. It acts in an autocrine manner to promote T cell and NK cell growth. IL-2 is also a T cell differentiation factor, able to induce the production of other lymphokines such as IL-4 and interferon- y. Low concentrations of IL-2 can be detected in normal serum samples or in culture supernatant after mitogen activation of mononuclear cells (PBMCs).
T cell receptors are found on the surface of T lymphocytes. When an antigen or mitogen binds to these receptors and activates the mature T lymphocyte, transcription and release of synthesized IL-2 occurs.
ELISA kits allow for quantitative measurement of IL-2 protein. The assay is easy to perform, and results are obtainable within half a day. The assay is sensitive and provides high precision (<10% CV). Invitrogen offers IL-2 assay kits in multiple formats, whether you want to measure IL-2 secretion only or would like to measure IL-2 along with other cytokines in one well using Invitrogen™ Luminex® multiplexing kits.

- Fast and easy cytokine assay protocols—perform and analyze your data in less than one day
- Superior performance—accurate, reproducible, and sensitive quantitation of multiple cytokines
- High quality—antibody-based assays with excellent specificity and sensitivity
To facilitate the analysis of a broad range of important cytokines, we have developed a series of multiplex immunoassays for the Luminex® platform that permit the simultaneous detection of numerous important biomarkers—delivering potential savings in cost, time, and sample.
The functional aspects of many T cells are tied to the release of cytokines. Cytokines play an important role in T cell activation and are potent T cell growth factors, and many cytokines are secreted by helper T cells. T cell subsets have also been found to produce cytokines differentially in response to diverse stimuli.
Luminex® multiplex assays, in conjunction with the Luminex® 100™, Luminex® 200™, or FLEXMAP 3D® System, are easy to perform and deliver reproducible analytical results, making them valuable research tools in the quantitation of key cytokines.

Robin Wright Looks Good In A Bikini. Who Knew?
[Disclaimer: At no point did I say look at her face. You did that to yourself.]
Here's Robin Wright looking surprisingly good in a bikini yesterday which finally much proves that Sean Penn's penis is the fabled "ugly stick" of lore, but more importantly to its victim, that its magic thankfully wears off after decreased contact. So just assume he wasted the bulk of its power on Madonna who to this day regrets not using a stronger youth enchantment. "Only one eye of an albino child. 'The fuck was I thinking?!"

A top panel of experts will face questions of public and scientific concern on stem cell research during an international conference being held at The University of Manchester this week.
The Stem Cell Question Time will be headed by Lord Naren Patel, chair of the UK National Stem Cell Network, as part of Stem Cell Manchester, a three-day gathering of stem cell researchers from across the globe.
Among the panellists at Wednesday's event will be Ron McKay from the National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, USA, Justine Burley, from the University of Singapore, and Jed Davies, from the University of Toronto, Canada.
The audience, which will be comprised of scientists both within and outside the field, will be invited to submit questions on important, contentious and challenging issues facing the stem cell research community.
Such topics up for discussion are likely to focus on the ethical issues surrounding stem cell research as well as the scientific challenges that must be overcome if this cutting-edge branch of biomedical research is to fulfil its true potential.
Also on the panel are Alan Coleman, from Embryonic Stem Cell International, Singapore, Chris Mason, from University College, London, and Daniel Brison, Co-director of the Northwest Embryonic Stem Cell Research Centre based at St Mary's Hospital and The University of Manchester.
"The Stem Cell Manchester conference has attracted leading figures in stem cell research from across the world," said organiser Professor Tim Hardingham, who is based in Manchester's Faculty of Life Sciences.
"We have a packed programme of speakers lined up over the next few days culminating with the Question Time event on Wednesday where people outside the field can take part in a full and frank debate of the issues surrounding stem cell research."
Among the speakers at the conference is Shinya Yamanaka, whose team at Kyoto University in Japan is pioneering ways of producing stem cells from adult human cells and therefore avoiding the need for embryos.

Sadie Frost says Jude Law is very important to her. The 46-year-old actress – who divorced the actor in 2003 – tells Britain's Marie Claire that the two are close because they have Rafferty, 15, Iris, 11, and Rudy, 9, together.
She reveals, "Jude and I were together for 10 years and we've been separated for almost eight now. We have to love our children so we have to love each other. He is one of the most important men in my life because he is the father of my kids. We're really quite close now. We're like brother and sister. It's that sort of affection, that brotherly sisterly love."
Sadie – who also runs designer label FrostFrench – added, "It was a difficult time, you're in a family, you're all together and then you have to try and unmesh yourselves. But time passes. I am really lucky to have such a good relationship."
As for her mental health – she can now talk about her past panic attacks.
I haven't had a panic attack for five years. I'd suffered them since I was a child and can remember at four years old thinking, 'Oh my God, maybe I'm just a tiny insignificant piece of dust' and my mind would just go. Then later it got to a point where I couldn't fly or I'd have to get out of cars if they were going too fast."
She added, "Russell Brand did introduce me to his therapist, Chip, at a time in my life when I needed a reliable man who I could trust, a friend and father figure. Chip was there for me."

"It's great if you want to research. You can get their background, but it's not a good messaging site. So I would say that Facebook and Twitter are really social messaging sites, or tools," he says.
Epstein's Facebook application enables job seekers to connect with people who have some kind of connection to the company they would like to work at.
Whether they currently work at the company, worked there previously or just interviewed there, the aim is to construct "a community of users who want to help each other with jobs," says Epstein.
The messaging service can be used from handheld mobile devices, cell phones or the Web. It basically consists of short messages you can send out to all of your followers. You decide whether or not your messages are seen to the rest of the Twitter-world.
Jaimie Croft, a graphic designer in Tuscaloosa, Ala., began using Twitter about a year ago to update friends, but then found he could garner two or three new clients a week.
"Believe it or not, Twitter is a great place to look for work. I am a graphic designer, so I am able to see what people need and respond to them almost instantly, ready to help them," he says.
"Instead of just sending out, 'Hey, I'm a graphic designer, let me design something' updates, I look for people that are actually in need of a designer. That way, it's not like I am just shouting out to Twitterland that I am a designer. I am actually able to respond to them via Twitter that I am able to help them," says Croft.
Using all the available avenues of connecting with other people can smooth your job search and uncover opportunities you may not have been aware of. At the very least, your efforts may result in contacts you can follow up with once you've sent your resume to the company of your dreams.
"With the advent of technology and scanning resumes, there are programs that basically analyze the resume for keywords and content," says Martin Weitzman, executive resume writer at Gilbert Resumes.
"Resumes have to be structured so that all the keywords that people would be looking for, for specific types of positions, are in the resume somehow. They do not need to be in a section called 'keywords,' but they do need to be in the resume," he says.
For workers who want to be on the leading edge of resume technology, companies such as VisualCV can help you make a Web resume with embedded videos, pictures and graphs.
"The actual format is somewhat of a cross between a traditional resume format and what you might call a multimedia profile like you might see on Facebook.com or other social networking sites, using some of the same sorts of technology," says Phillip Merrick, co-founder and chairman of VisualCV. "But it is a controlled safe and professional environment, so it's a little bit different in that way."
To apply for a job, would-be employees can send their prospective employer a link to their resume on the site. Some employers and recruiters have signed up with VisualCV to specifically accept resumes in that format. VisualCV currently has more than 700 companies enrolled.
"We've found 100 percent acceptance of it from employers regardless of whether or not they've signed up at our site," adds Merrick.

JERUSALEM (Jun. 16)
The Zionist General Council ended its three-day annual meeting here today, unable to agree how to implement a series of Zionist goals adopted in principle. The Council voted to defer the matter until it reconvenes next December.
The major objectives of the World Zionist movement — aliya, Jewish education and stronger ties between Israel and diaspora Jewry — are known collectively as the Caesaria Process. It was the end result of a Jewish Agency Assembly that convened in Caesaria three years ago.
There is no ideological dispute over that agenda. But according to Ephraim Even, the newly elected chairman of the Zionist Council, "The general consensus of this Council was that the adoption of the Caesaria Process is likely to deprive the Zionist movement of its ideological independence." The major source of disagreement is the jurisdiction of the committee responsible for running the Zionist movement, such as determining how people should be appointed to office and how long they should serve. Kalman Sultanik, who was one of the chairmen at the Caesaria meeting, said "In order to introduce new blood into the (Jewish) Agency it was recommended that every department head be limited to two terms in office." The World Zionist Organization (WZO) has never set a limit to the number of terms its leaders can serve. The WZO is a Zionist body, composed of the various Zionist parties, each of which is represented in the leadership of one or another department. The Jewish Agency embraces non-Zionists as well as Zionists.
While efforts to strengthen ties between the Agency and WZO are supported in principle, their implementation proved a stumbling block at the General Council meeting. Raanan Weitz, also a chairman at the Caesaria conference, observed that "In the fields of immigration and absorption, there should be a separation between the activities of the Jewish Agency and those of the government, with the Agency being responsible for immigration and the government for absorption. This separation of power includes a demand for involvement in operations by the Zionist Organization," Weitz said.
Raphael Kotlowitz, chairman of the WZO's immigration department, predicted that immigration from Western countries will reach 13,500 this year, the highest since 1973. He projected a 25 percent rise in immigration from the U.S. and a 46 percent rise from all Western countries.
Bernice Tannenbaum, acting chairman of the WZO Executive-American Section, said there was an urgent need to capitalize on the restoration of good relations between Israel and the U.S. With the American Presidential elections only a year away, it is crucial to reaffirm Israel's importance to American interests in the Middle East, Tannenbaum said.
The General Council meeting which closed today will be followed next week by the annual Jewish Agency Assembly.

Rush Limbaugh Wonders About Obama's Ex-Girlfriends
Is Rush Limbaugh trying to suggest that President Obama is gay?
Since he can no longer claim that Barack Obama was born in Kenya or that the president is Muslim, conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh has decided to back another right wing conspiracy theory: the dearth of women who have admitted to dating the commander-in-chief.
Chatting on his show yesterday, Limbaugh brought up an email that is apparently circulating around that right wing blogosphere, an email that wonders about Obama's past romances.
"You probably have seen this [email] going around. This one is, 'Where are all of Obama's former girlfriends?' It's a takeoff on where are all of the students Obama taught who claim to have been inspired by him when he taught law at the University of Chicago," said Limbaugh. "Where are all of the former classmates of Obama who can tell wonderful stories about their experience with Obama on campus or in the classroom?"
He continued, "They are interesting because those people haven't surfaced. There aren't any ex-girlfriends that have admitted it. Students that have been inspired by Obama as a professor, they haven't come forth. Media hasn't dug 'em up. It is interesting from the standpoint that the guy has not been vetted yet."
Limbaugh concludes, "It's very strange that we know so little about a guy who's written two autobiographies. It really is strange."
The only thing strange here is the angle Limbaugh is playing. Sure, he wants to create an aura of secrecy and luridness around the president, but the explicitly romantic nature of his remarks — and the email itself — goes beyond the standard conspiracy theory. Wondering whether the president has ex-girlfriends is akin to saying, "Maybe president Obama is gay"—a lame rumor tabloids have been hammering for months.
Limbaugh and his ilk are assuming that Obama's ex-girlfriends haven't surfaced because he doesn't have any — which they take as evidence of shenanigans — rather than the two most obvious explanations: either the women have the dignity not to kiss and tell, or the president has asked them to stay out of the spotlight.

Evolution of crystalline target rocks and impactites in the chesapeake bay impact structure, ICDP-USGS eyreville B core

AbstractThe 1766-m-deep Eyreville B core from the late Eocene Chesapeake Bay impact structure includes, in ascending order, a lower basement-derived section of schist and pegmatitic granite with impact breccia dikes, polymict impact breccias, and cataclas tic gneiss blocks overlain by suevites and clast-rich impact melt rocks, sand with an amphibolite block and lithic boulders, and a 275-m-thick granite slab overlain by crater-fill sediments and postimpact strata. Graphite-rich cataclasite marks a detachment fault atop the lower basement-derived section. Overlying impactites consist mainly of basement-derived clasts and impact melt particles, and coastalplain sediment clasts are underrepresented. Shocked quartz is common, and coesite and reidite are confirmed by Raman spectra. Silicate glasses have textures indicating immiscible melts at quench, and they are partly altered to smectite. Chrome spinel, baddeleyite, and corundum in silicate glass indicate high-temperature crystallization under silica undersaturation. Clast-rich impact melt rocks contain ??- cristobalite and monoclinic tridymite. The impactites record an upward transition from slumped ground surge to melt-rich fallback from the ejecta plume. Basement-derived rocks include amphibolite-facies schists, greenschist(?)-facies quartz-feldspar gneiss blocks and subgreenschist-facies shale and siltstone clasts in polymict impact breccias, the amphibolite block, and the granite slab. The granite slab, underlying sand, and amphibolite block represent rock avalanches from inward collapse of unshocked bedrock around the transient crater rim. Gneissic and massive granites in the slab yield U-Pb sensitive high-resolution ion microprobe (SHRIMP) zircon dates of 615 ?? 7 Ma and 254 ?? 3 Ma, respectively. Postimpact heating was 7lt;~350 ??C in the lower basementderived section based on undisturbed 40Ar/ 39Ar plateau ages of muscovite and <~150 <C in sand above the suevite based on 40Ar/39Ar age spectra of detrital microcline. ?? 2009 The Geological Society of America.

A member of a Casterton family – known as "the loonies" – in Victoria's south-west has been jailed for 20 years after stabbing three men in a frenzied attack at his home, killing two of them.
Aaron Jamie Ball, 34, who suffered from paranoid schizophrenia and believed he was either a clone of Hitler or his grandson, pleaded guilty to two charges of defensive homicide and one charge of causing serious injury recklessly.
Raymond McCombe, 38, died from 34 stab wounds, Toby Lynch, 25, died from a stab wound to the chest, and Steven Mark, now 31, was seriously injured but survived after being stabbed three times.
Supreme Court Justice Elizabeth Curtain said Ball had been living in a house in Miller Street, Casterton, with his mother, Dianne Hutchins, and sister, Chantel Hutchins, when he stabbed the three men.
"You and your family were in the habit of yelling abuse at neighbours and passers-by and, indeed, filming them with your phones," the judge said when jailing Ball on Wednesday for 20 years with a non-parole period of 17 years.
"You were also in the habit of taunting and then chasing children away, which in turn caused disputes with their parents and other adults, and so it was that you and your family became known as 'the loonies'.
"At around the time you moved to Miller Street (in 2009), you distributed an unsigned letter to nearby residents, warning them that you had a violent temper, which was difficult to control. You claimed to be trained in weapon techniques and you warned people to leave you and your family alone."
Ball, who had a limited intellect and suffered from delusional beliefs similar to his mother (who has since died) and sister, stabbed the three men during a neighbourhood dispute on October 4, 2011.
Justice Curtain said that according to a psychiatrist, Ball continued to express "a well-systemised set of conspiracies involving missing persons, homicide and the involvement of police and the victims of these offences".
"You continued to hold bizarre ideas, for example, being a clone or grandson of Hitler, being able to read minds and having been subject to experimental medical procedures.
"It appears the genesis of these ideas derived largely from your mother's beliefs."
The judge said she accepted that the three men came on to Ball's property "in circumstances where there had been a lot of yelling, and mutual abuse, and where your comments and those of your mother referencing Raymond McCombe's deceased wife were inappropriate and no doubt inflammatory".
"I accept also that alcohol had been consumed, it was night time, it was dark, and clearly this must have been a dynamic, fluid and highly-charged event, and it was in those circumstances that you responded to what you believed was a threat to your life or to the threat of being seriously injured and you produced the knife ... and went on to stab Toby Lynch, Steven Mark and Raymond McCombe.
"True it is that three men came onto your property, but they came unarmed, and Steven Mark expressly said he had not come to fight you.
"The reality is, your response to the threat as you believed it to be was totally disproportionate to the conduct and menace posed by those three men, and that belief in the necessity of your actions, although genuinely held, was unreasonable in all the circumstances."
Ball was originally charged with two counts of murder and one count of attempted murder but on the day his trial was due to begin the Crown accepted his guilty pleas to two charges of defensive homicide and one charge of recklessly causing serious injury.

HOW will York Theatre Royal spend the nine months while the theatre's £4.1 million redevelopment is carried out next year?
From March, the theatre will work out of the next-door De Grey Rooms in St Leonard's Place, combining administration with continuing to run rehearsals and the youth theatre from there, as well as the events business and more performances in the Ballroom.
That, however, is only half the story., as artistic director Damian Cruden and chief executive Liz Wilson revealed at Monday's launch of both the redevelopment plans and the artistic programme during the months of temporary closure. "We'll be doing something hugely important for maintaining theatre in the city," said Liz.
York Theatre Royal will take up residence at the National Railway Museum in Leeman Road, a link first forged so fruitfully for Cruden's award-winning production of The Railway Children in 2008 and 2009. Whereas those performances were staged in a converted freight depot, this time a purpose-built tented space with a 1,000-seat capacity will be constructed in the museum grounds, by the sidings of the South Yard, where Mike Kenny's adaptation of The Railway Children will be staged for a third time in York.
In the light of the success of theTheatre Royal's staging of the 2012 York Mystery Plays on a specially constructed stage in the Yorkshire Museum Gardens and the 2013 production of Blood + Chocolate on the city-centre streets, the Theatre Royal and NRM are to work on a community play with the working title of Steam. Designed to tell York's railway story in the steam era, it will allow audiences to explore the museum's on-site collections in "innovative and exciting ways".
Will Mike Kenny write this one too, after The Railway Children, the Mystery Plays and Blood + Chocolate? No announcement was forthcoming on Monday, so wait and see. but the prolific York playwright has shown no signs of running out of steam.
Paul Kirkman, director of the NRM since last July, welcomed the renewed and expanded partnership. "One of the most exciting things that ever happened at the National Railway Museum was when The Railway Children was staged here, so when the Theatre Royal asked about an eight or nine month residency at the NRM, we said 'Absolutely'."
Paul went on to reveal there would be a third co-production too of "much wider relevance", without giving any further details behind a smile. "From our point of view it's a fantastic opportunity and we're really happy to be able to provide space to enable the Theatre Royal to continue performing during next year," he said. "It's also benefit to the NRM as we're always looking to bring in new audiences and there are all sorts of people that come in through these collaborations.
"We're both in the business of telling stories, but we can learn so much from the Theatre Royal about the theatrical ways of doing that , while also benefiting our work with young people. We're so excited about having the NRM as our playground," said Liz, who went on to make a more serious point. "How we tell stories and how the NRM tells stories is a hugely significant development nationally, not just locally. I think it's really important for us to learn from each other and it will be great for us to learn from the NRM's curatorial team."
Away from the NRM project, the Theatre Royal will take part in another new theatre enterprise in York next May: the first International Shakespeare Festival at the University of York, in partnership with Parabola, who already are involved in Shakespeare festivals across Europe.
While no mention of it was made on Monday, it is an open secret that West Yorkshire company Northern Broadsides will be taking part in the festival with Jonathan Miller's production of King Lear. Who will play Lear?
What's On will hold fire on that name for now.
It won't be Berwick Kaler, by the way. The venerable dame's 2015-2016 pantomime will, however, mark the re-opening of the Theatre Royal in December next year.

GOP just a label in Verona Council race
Although the ballot may read otherwise, in the election for Verona Council, there are no Republicans running.
There are endorsed Democrats and unendorsed Democrats clad in Republican labels vying for the four open council seats.
The latter is a product of a primary election in which four candidates not endorsed by the local Democratic committee sought and won nominations from Republican voters. They include Robert J. Brayer, Leo D. Bickert, Sylvia Kresevich Provenza and incumbent Rhoda Gemellas Worf, an incumbent who is the only candidate with both the Democratic and Republican nominations. They said they are running as a team.
"I think we are trying to bring more transparency into council," Worf said.
The endorsed candidates are incumbents William "Tony" Futules and Patrick J. McCarthy Jr., and first-time candidate Janet LoAlbo.
All the candidates were asked what they proposed to do to bring business into the borough and whether they favored something like a tax abatement program as a lure. Almost all of them referred to the revitalization program in the business district, which includes painting storefronts, planting trees and new street lighting, as being a major boost.
"I have opened up a gallery, trying to draw the arts into the area," Worf said. "I have a friend who is also opening up a gallery and another couple is opening up a music store. I think bringing the arts, more culture, into the area is going to be wonderful for Verona. With my gallery and other artists coming in, I think that will introduce more retail."
She said a tax abatement program is something that "would have to be investigated and discussed."
Futules said, "We've been attracting businesses for quite a few years. We certainly can't give them tax breaks but we try to accommodate them. I have two storefronts down there and they're always filled."
"There has to be things done to make it appealing for businesses to come to Verona," Bickert said. "My offering of what I can do is any type of communication process, setting up a website, anything to promote the town. I'm in charge of the website for Verona Chamber of Commerce. I think we have to put our heads together and see how we can build around that."
As for tax abatement, he said, "If that is one way to bring business into the town, I would certainly work on that."
"Working on parking is maybe another way to get businesses interested. " LoAlbo said, adding that she supports building a parking lot in the business district. She said offering a tax incentive could be a way to keep more businesses in town.
Provenza said that the current revitalization activities now being done "are things that entice businesses to come into the community."
She said she was interested in a tax abatement program to make the borough more attractive. "I don't know that we have ever done that," she said. "I think any time that you can help somebody with taxes, help them get on their feet, get a good start in business, I think that's a wonderful idea."
McCarthy said "The biggest problem we have is parking. In talking with business owners the biggest complaint we get from them is parking. There is the old Futules Restaurant, we are looking a doing something with that and there is a possibility that if we could tear that down we could put in a parking lot there that would be visible and give people easy access to the main street. But that is in the courts right now."
Regarding a tax abatement program, he said, "I wouldn't rule it out, but that is not in the future that I can see."
Brayer said, "I'm more in favor of promoting the businesses that are there, but that's not to say I don't want new businesses in. If you present a good appearance, the businesses will come in because the rents here are very reasonable and parking is available."
He said he would be in favor of tax abatement, especially in trying to develop housing along the river as Oakmont is now doing with the Edgewater developments that will extend toward the Verona border.
"That (Edgewater) is creeping down toward Verona and I would like to take advantage of that," he said. "There's an old scrap yard in between and I would like to get rid of that and see that development expand down here. If they can do it in Oakmont, why not here?"
The candidates also were asked about the future of the police department, which accounts for about 40 percent of the borough's budget.
All of them said they favored keeping the department as it is now rather than merging with a neighboring municipality such as Oakmont or contracting with another department for police services.

Wisconsin junior running back John Clay has decided to pass up his senior season and enter the 2011 NFL draft.
Clay, the 2009 Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year, finishes his career seventh on Wisconsin's all-time rushing list with 3,413 career yards and fifth in rushing touchdowns with 41.
"This is the right decision for me at this time and I'm excited to start a new chapter," Clay said in a statement.
Clay, a fourth-year junior who turned 23 earlier this week, met with Wisconsin coach Bret Bielema Friday afternoon to discuss his options. He started two seasons for the Badgers and earned third-team All-America honors this fall despite being slowed by a knee injury in November.
"Since coming to Wisconsin, John has gone above and beyond all of our expectations both on and off the field," Bielema said in a statement. "His tremendous production on the field speaks for itself, but we are also proud of him as a teammate and the work he has done in the classroom and off the field. We support his decision and wish him luck."

The following is a guest post by Joseph Hall.
Marx, Stalin, and Friends: The Obama SOTU Plan
Obama's SOTU address was a veiled threat to the American free market system. As a professed Marxist, Obama has been indoctrinated to believe that government must take steps to ensure fairness. This is Marxist speak for redistribution of wealth formula: "From each according to their ability, to each according to their need." This represents the socialism model of fairness.
While this concept is not new to the Obama administration, he announced that the SOTU address 2012 would fundamentally change the US economy when implemented. In Obama's first three years in office, he has promoted the redistribution of wealth mantra with little acceptance from the general population! He wants radical and permanent change!
With Lenin, the Russian people's resistance to change was a daunting problem. However, Lenin learned to overcome by force! Lenin proposed, "Religion is opium for people." By this he meant to convey that religion is the antithesis of revolution! It takes a revolution to change to a radical economic system like Marxism in a country like the US. The concept of God must be forbidden by the government (Lenin).
Lenin also explained that religious people will not rise up and overthrow the government because religious people generally support their government and even when they disagree with government policies, they act as though they are using opium. They are content with the status quo. Therefore, Lenin understood that revolution demands a complete separation of church and state.
Consequently, Lenin taught that it would take a trained radical force to eliminate the enemies within government to usher in a new system. In this election year, Obama is signaling that he not only believes in class warfare, but he is willing to allow people friendly to his proposals to apply radical methods to achieve his goals. Radicals are willing to destroy anyone or any system who dares to oppose his demands.
George Soros was recently quoted as saying that he foresees violence in the streets of America. Is this the coming revolution of Marx and Lenin? Obama is certainly using the language and tactics of Marx and Lenin. He spoke in the SOTU about taxing the rich and leveling the playing field for the poor. He plants seeds of revolution when he uses worthless terms as fairness, implying there is a huge amount of unfairness that his new world order would rectify, if only the people would rise up and overthrow the unfair government.
If we want to understand the fairness of the new left, we just need to review the corruption of the Obama administration of the past 3 years. He is waging economic war. The middle class is being shoved downward into the prison of poverty. Is there a reason for Obama to pursue such tactics? Does he long for revolution? His actions to date imply he seeks radicalizing the American people. Will this lead to acceptable change? What would the people say?
Enter another shadowy figure who preaches radicalism as a form of social change, Saul Alinsky, who seems to line up with the theories of Marx, Lenin, Soros, and apparently President Obama to add to the leftist chorus of Class Warfare.
According to Marx, people will only demand to follow the tenets of socialism once they are suffocating in poverty at the delight of the very rich (Class warfare).Lenin would add that poverty is one method of inciting a revolution. And, according to Soros, soon there will be revolution in the streets. Perhaps soon the malevolent Obama will be presiding over a new world order. Chairman Mao sure would be proud!
Or will he? It's up to us to inform our friends to seek understanding in this matter and create a huge wave of voters committed to reviving our free market system of government.

Obama budget to do little on national debt
WASHINGTON — When President Obama introduces his budget request on Tuesday, it will mark a starting point for Obama and Republicans to begin framing the choice presented to voters before midterm elections.
Americans hoping for a renewal of broad talks to cut the nation's debt will be disappointed. And the conversation surrounding the budget release has taken on a partisan edge.
"I will send Congress a budget that will create new jobs in manufacturing and energy and innovation and infrastructure, and we'll pay for every dime of it by cutting unnecessary spending, closing wasteful tax loopholes," Obama said in a speech to the Democratic National Committee on Friday. "Now, Republicans have a different view."
The White House has said the president will step back from his attempt to persuade Republicans to accept a grand bargain to reduce the soaring national debt that would include entitlement changes, something liberals abhor, and raising tax revenues, something conservatives hate.
Instead, Obama's proposal will detail $28 billion in new domestic funding, including money for new manufacturing hubs, job training and early childhood education that would be offset by cost savings elsewhere. The Defense Department would get an additional $28 billion in its 2015 budget, but the administration is calling for the Pentagon to begin reducing the size of the Army by 10,000 soldiers by 2019.
The plan will take off the table what is known as "chained-CPI," a proposal that would lead to less generous increases in Social Security benefits annually. The White House and its allies are using that decision to attempt to underscore that House Speaker John Boehner and his fellow Republicans have shown a lack of willingness to negotiate on reducing the deficit.
Polls suggest that stepping back from the deficit conversation is good politics. Only 8 percent of Americans identified budget or deficit issues as the top issue for the country, according to a Gallup Poll in February.
Republicans and some budget analysts say the White House is downplaying the independent Congressional Budget Office's calculation that the annual deficit is projected to balloon to more than $800 billion by 2022, as Medicare costs are projected to rise.
"They are more worried about their next election than the next generation," Sen. Rob Portman, R-Ohio, said in a speech last week at the American Action Forum in Washington.

A SHANE Blackmore goal four minutes from time wasn't enough to prevent Chippenham Town slipping to defeat in their second game of the new season last night.
After a goalless first half, hosts Redditch United hit a purple patch in the first quarter of an hour after the break to see off Mark Collier's Bluebirds.
Chippenham were without two members of their back four from last Saturday's 2-0 win at Biggleswade Town, with Conor McCormack nursing a shoulder injury and stand-in skipper Matt Coupe out with an ankle injury. The latter's organisational skills were sorely missed at the heart of defence.
Chippenham might have taken a sixth-minute lead when a long clearance found Luke Ballinger, who headed over advancing keeper Sam Hornby, but the effort lacked power and Redditch defender Calum Flanagan was able to race back and clear the ball off the line - it was to prove Chippenham's only effort on target until Blackmore's goal.
Redditch were equally ineffective in the opening period until two late long-distance shots from Ashley Sammons.
The hosts announced their intentions shortly after the break as Sammons shot narrowly wide and Kent Kauppinen saved the Bluebirds as he dived on the ball to thwart Jamie Molyneux.
But the lanky United striker soon had his revenge as Chippenham lost the ball in midfield and it was swiftly knocked forward to Molyneux, who poked past Kauppinen to make it 1-0.
Five minutes later, a mix up between two visiting defenders saw the ball canon into Molyneux's path and he made no mistake from just inside the area.
Boss Collier rang the changes, which included pushing Blackmore from defence to up front, and the move almost paid immediate dividends as his overhead shot was just off-target.
Four minutes from time, a combination of Alex Ferguson and Lee Phillips set up Blackmore to reduce the arrears with a right-footed shot from fifteen yards.
As the home defence began to panic, two sliced clearances flew just wide of goal and in stoppage-time, Greg Tindle's header from a corner went straight to Hornby as the Bluebirds were beaten.
CHIPPENHAM TOWN: Kent Kauppinen, Ellis Dunton (Tyron Leigh 67), Jon Beeden, Shane Blackmore, Greg Tindle, Iain Harvey, Zac Evans (Toby Osman 60), Jordan Roberts, Luke Ballinger (Omar Simpson 60), Lee Phillips, Alex Ferguson.

Looking good so far. I have my grandfather's old 1903 Mark 1 which he picked up and sporterized in the early '50s. Shoots great, but I wish he had left it intact. It is basically a $250 deer rifle now, instead of a collector's piece. Maybe I'll get bored at some point, and start odering the parts to put it back to original condition. For now, I'll keep using it the way it sits. I miss him now that he is gone, and I think the best way to remember him is to take it out and hopefully get the first buck of the season with it this year. R.I.P. Poppa Bear.
i think your grandfathers rifle is worth more the way it sits the way he wanted it

Chennai, Aug 7 (ANI): President Pranab Mukherjee on Wednesday said that the year 2013 would mark a significant milestone in Indian agricultural and social history, and expressed confidence that the Parliament would pass the National Food Security Bill believed to be the world's largest social protection measure against hunger.
"The National Food Security Ordinance was promulgated and the Bill in this regard has been introduced in the Lok Sabha today. He is confident the Parliament would approve this measure. This initiative is believed to be the world's largest social protection measure against hunger," said President Mukherjee in his address on the occasion of the Silver Jubilee Celebrations of M.S. Swaminathan Research Foundation (MSSRF) here.
"Henceforth, availability of food at an affordable cost would be a legal right to over two thirds of our population," he added.
President Mukherjee said 'every Indian can be proud of this transition from the days of the Bengal Famine of 1943 in which over 3 million people died to the implementation of the Right to Food with our own home grown food'.
"However, this Rights based approach to Food can be sustained only if we pay greater attention to farmers and farming. The National Commission on Farmers, chaired by Prof M S Swaminathan has given valuable recommendations for converting the Green revolution into an Ever-Green revolution, resulting in higher productivity in perpetuity without associated ecological harm," he added.
President Mukherjee said land is a shrinking resource for agriculture.
"We have hence no option except to produce more from less land as well as less irrigation water. This is where the farmer participatory research programme as well as the farmer to farmer learning institutions like Farm Schools promoted by this Foundation are extremely valuable," he added.
Asserting that eastern India has large untapped production potential, President Mukherjee said: "The future of our food security system will depend upon the progress we make in assisting farm families in this region produce more in an environmentally sustainable manner. When I was the Finance Minister, I had delineated in the Union Budget for 2010-11 a strategy to extend the Green Revolution to the eastern region of the country. "
"As a result of this initiative, farmers in the selected clusters have adopted good agricultural practices and benefitted from the yield advantage of hybrid rice technology. It is important that the Green Revolution in eastern India is provided impetus through synergetic packages of technology, services and public policy," he added.
President Mukherjee pointed out that climate change, leading to adverse changes in precipitation, temperature and sea level is a major threat to our food security system.
"Drought, floods and extreme weather events are likely to become even more frequent. We have just witnessed the havoc caused by the floods in Uttarakhand. We should strengthen the coping capacity of rural and tribal families in the area of climate risk management. I am happy this Foundation is developing a cadre of Community Climate Risk Managers, with the ultimate goal of training at least one woman and one male member of every Panchayat in the science and art of climate risk management," said President Mukherjee
"There is great scope for marrying traditional knowledge and wisdom with modern science in this area. Our earlier systems of agriculture focused more on risk avoidance than yield enhancement. Now, we need to combine both," he added.
Commenting on nutritional maladies in the country, President said: "There is hidden hunger caused by micro-nutrient deficiencies, such as iron, iodine, zinc, vitamin A, Vitamin B 12 etc. Financial provision for a new initiative for organizing nutri-farms where agricultural remedies can be applied to overcome nutritional maladies has been included in the 2013-14 budget by Finance Minister Shri P Chidambaram. Credit for this idea also goes to Prof Swaminathan," he added.
President Mukherjee further said 'non -food factors like clean drinking water, sanitation and toilets, environmental hygiene and primary health care need equal attention, if we are to ensure nutrition security for our people'.
President said he was happy that he was honouring the farmers of the Kuttanad region of Kerala and Koraput in Odissa. He said: "This unique system of rice-fish cultivation developed by farm families against great odds has been declared by FAO as a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System (GIAHS). I am glad the Chief Minister of Kerala, Shri Oommen Chandy has come all the way to receive the Plaque on behalf of the farm families of Kuttanad. I am also happy that the Assistant Director General of FAO is with us today for the specific purpose of handing over this Plaque. It will be appropriate to recall that the first GIAHS site to be recognized in our country is the tribal farming system of Koraput in Odisha. Kuttanad farmers are the second to receive such a global recognition."
On the occasion, he recalled the contribution of political leaders like Lal Bahadur Shastri, Indira Gandhi and C Subramaniam who had realized the strengths in the areas of science and farming.
"Their indomitable spirit helped scientists and farmers to convert the nation from a begging bowl into a "bread basket," he added. (ANI)

The 'Superbass' rapstress with the outlandish costumes and crazy wigs is bootylicious as usual in her new fairytale inspired video.
Nicki Minaj is set to make eyes pop and jaws drop once again with the release of her new video "Va Va Voom". The dance and electropop song is from Minaj's deluxe edition of her second studio album "Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded". The clip premiered today exclusively on E! Online.
The video is a Minaj-style complete with the elaborate, figure-hugging costumes and the different colored wigs the rapper is known for. This time though, she plays a sweet and innocent damsel in distress waiting for her prince charming to awaken her with a tender kiss.
Towards the end of the video, Minaj is shown turning to the dark side of magic and becoming the evil step mom who is trying to seduce the prince charming. Besides the detailed costumes and fairytale looks seen on the clip, "Va Va Voom" has the ever so fantasy images of unicorns frolicking through water.
The Hype Williams-directed video was shot in Los Angeles and is already spreading like wildfire online and is expected to make more noise for Minaj and for the release of her album and DVD, "Pink Friday Roman Reloaded: The Re-Up" on November 19. The track was written by Minaj and features Nashville rapper Future.

Del Bosque calls up Bartra as Fàbregas out injured
Cesc is out of Spain's squad for the friendlies against Equatorial Guinea and South Africa with a knee problem.
Cesc Fàbregas underwent tests on his right knee this morning, having suffered discomfort in the joint during the game against Betis. He ended up asking to be substituted because of the niggle after scoring his second goal. Although the injury isn't serious it is sufficient to warrant him dropping out of the Spanish squad for the friendlies against Equatorial Guinea and South Africa.
According to the Spanish Football Federation Marc Bartra takes his place in the squad. This is his first call up to the full national side. The defender follows in the footsteps of many of his teammates from the Under 21s who have been called up this summer by Del Bosque: De Gea, Montoya, Alberto Moreno, Nacho, Íñigo Martínez, Thiago, Koke, Isco, Muniain and Tello.
Bartra, successor to Puyol, was congratulated by his club captain, who handed him a special present, his number, "Congratulations Marc, you deserve it. I'm so happy for you. Take the number 5", he said on Twitter.

Q: Can I install my own ceiling fan?
A: Yes, you can. Ceiling fans can reduce air-conditioning costs by as much as 40 percent in the summer and heating costs by up to 10 percent in the winter. If a home already has ceiling fans, replacing each fan with an Energy Star-rated fan can save $13 to $24 a year on energy consumption.
Here is how to install one:
1) Turn off the power.
2) Remove the ceiling box of light fixture by removing the screws and prying the box out. If the box is nailed to a joist, you may need to cut around the box to enlarge the hole and tap the box loose with a hammer.
3) Next, slip in the brace, which provides the support for the fan box. Place the brace so the legs at each end rest on the top of the drywall. Measure to make sure the brace is centered in the hole. It needs to be positioned so the box will be flush with the surface of the ceiling.
4) Now rotate the brace to tighten it between the framing. You can use an adjustable wrench or channel-type pliers. Be careful not to over-tighten because it can cause the ceiling to crack.
5) Attach the box so the assembly is centered and the bolts face down. Next, thread the cable. Slip the box up so the bolts slide through it and tighten the nuts to secure the box.
6) Install the mounting plate. Thread the wire through the center so the bolts poke through the plate.
7) Assemble the downrod and canopy by following the manufacturer's instructions, running the fan leads through and screwing the downrod on tightly. The bulb-shaped fitting at the top of the downrod will rest in the canopy when it is attached to the ceiling.
8) Hang the fan temporarily from the hook on the mounting ring so you can wire the fan. Connect the copper ground wire to the green wire attached to the fan base. There are three wires, so connect the black to black, white to white, and red to the blue or striped light lead.
9) The last step is to push the wires and wire nuts up into the box so they don't vibrate against the canopy when the fan is running. To complete the project, clip the canopy onto the mounting plate and tighten the screws.
