THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED Tiger Bar Restaurant Review: Neon tigers decorate this lively rock bar that advertises "Karaoke From Hell." You will no doubt want to down a couple of the famously stiff drinks before stoking the devilish musical fires and stretching your vocal chords. If hunger strikes, order the sweet potato fries with coconut and chili sauce, or dig into a fairly decent burger. Cool patrons pack the bar on weekends, while weekdays tend to be quieter. The bands are loud, the bartenders sizzle, and they rightfully boast of having Portland's last, last call.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Gentiae Clinical Research, Inc. a provider of centralized cardiac safety monitoring & imaging services, announced today record revenue growth for the first three quarters of fiscal year 2005. In anticipation of the company's ongoing rapid growth, Gentiae announced the appointment of Craig Albright as its new chief executive officer.
"On behalf of Gentiae's board of directors, I'm very excited to welcome Craig to our team," said board member Mike Kaplan, of venture firm Three Arch Partners. "With his track record in health care, and his credibility in the financing community, Craig will provide Gentiae with the leadership it needs to expand on its current success." Added board member Bill Hinton, "We're at a pivotal time in the company's expansion, and Craig has the experience to build and lead the team at Gentiae to take advantage of an exceptional market opportunity."
"I'm delighted to join Gentiae as it transitions for the next stage of growth," said Albright, "and it is a privilege to build on the success of the company to date. FDA scrutiny and concern for cardiac safety is creating a tremendous market opportunity for ECG and other cardiovascular core lab services. The company's founding management team has built Gentiae into a true clinical brand that is recognized in the industry as the quality standard."
As CEO of Free & Clear, Inc., recipient of multiple industry awards for clinical excellence, Albright led the company through its spinout from parent Group Health Cooperative and through subsequent rounds of venture financing to become a commercial leader in the disease management and risk factor treatment market. Over the past 20 years, Albright has helped lead the rapid growth of several notable venture backed health care companies, including Vivra Specialty Partners, Inc. and Datis Corporation. Albright has also served as a retained advisor to several leading private equity groups, including Three Arch, Kohlberg & Company, and Warburg Pincus.
Gentiae spun off from its parent organization, the Ischemia Research and Education Foundation (IREF), in September of 2001. It has received funding from IREF and Three Arch Partners of Portola Valley, California.
In addition to appointing a new CEO, Gentiae has also announced that Jay B. Hunt has joined the Gentiae Board of Directors.

Can't say much about Apostrophe, there was a problem with the hot water so we couldn't stay there. But the landlord put us up in a really wonderful hotel nearby, so absolutely great service there.

A Lipstick Tomboy Is Actually A Lazy Person
What the heck is a Lipstick Tomboy? According to Clutch Magazine, a Lipstick Tomboy is a woman who is the opposite of the "girly girl" and is "clean, stylish and confident living by their own definition of womanliness." The Lipstick Tomboy doesn't care about trends and wears clothing that suits her body instead of what the fashion world dictates. OK, that sounds like most of the women I know, but writer Sky Obercam gives more details on this type of woman, and, it turns out, a Lipstick Tomboy simply sounds like a lazy woman who doesn't mind looking like crap on a daily basis. She doesn't own an iron, has holes in her clothing (that could easily be mended), has spots on her clothes, and leaves her eyebrows ungroomed. I also think the Lipstick Tomboy would be too lazy to put on lipstick.Obercam seems to have a real issue with girly girls, who she describes as mindless fashion drones incapable of making decisions on their own and spending too much time primping their hair, nails, and face. However, in order for a girly girl to spend a considerable amount of time and money on her appearance she also has to spend an equal (or more!) amount of time on her education and career. Fashion and makeup ain't cheap! Plus, she has to have the luxury of an occupation that gives her weekends off because when else would she get her mani/pedi? So you see, her main focus can't be on her appearance because there simply aren't enough hours in a day.
Now, I'll admit I'm a girly girl. I like the relaxation brought on by a pedicure and a hot stone massage. And you all already know I'm stylish at times. But, as a single woman, I can get down and dirty when it comes to home repairs, a trait Obercam claims is foreign to the girly girl and native to the Lipstick Tomboy. I've used a plunger on several occasions, unclogged a toilet and drain, and have even had to plunge my hand into the ice cold water in the tank of the toilet to connect the chain to that other piece that makes the toilet flush. I've painted an entire room and am not afraid of heavy lifting or all bugs. (Though I'll admit, I'm not into getting dirty unless you count sandy feet on the beach.)
I think there's a little girly girl and Lipstick Tomboy in every woman because we are dynamic beings. We don't fit into one category. I do agree with Obercam on one aspect, though, femininity isn't solely about the outside appearance — it's also about inner confidence and defining womanliness on our own terms.

River Falls school officials identify three dead sisters
School officials in River Falls have identified three sisters who were apparently murdered in their mother's home yesterday.
Amara Schaffhausen was going to enter sixth grade this fall at Greenwood Elementary. His sister Sophie was planning to start the third grade. Cecilia Schaffhausen was going to start kindergarten.
According to authorities, their mother called police after having a conversation with her ex-husband that raised concerns about the children's safety.
Police found all three dead in a home which had a natural gas odor. Officials have not said how they died. Their father, 34-year-old Aaron Schaffhausen, turned himself in to police.
St. Croix County jail staffers said Schaffhauser was booked late Tuesday night for first-degree intentional homicide. Prosecutors were still said to be considering possible charges on Wednesday.
State court records show that Aaron and Jessica Schaffhausen filed for divorce last summer, and it was granted in January. Aaron's address at that time was listed as Minot, N.D. The couple was given joint legal custody of their children.
The mother is reported to be OK physically. She's been helping authorities with their investigation.
Greenwood Elementary told parents that a crisis team has been set up. They'll be available Wednesday afternoon and at midday Thursday.
A makeshift memorial is being set up in the school's front courtyard. The school says people are welcome to add to it.
The mother of one of the victims' friends, Julie Matzke, has set up a Facebook page to honor the youngsters. She's setting up a vigil Wednesday night starting at 7 p.m. at Glen Park in River Falls.

A loving recreation of 1940s behind-the-scenes Hollywood, the Falcon Theatre's entertaining world premiere production of Billy & Ray blends acerbic humor with telling detail in revealing how disparate writers Billy Wilder and Raymond Chandler created the classic film Double Indemnity. Touching as well as laugh-out-loud funny, the presentation features outstanding acting and writing in its depiction of film noir's oddest coupling.
Writer Mike Bencivenga's witty script combines potent zingers, sly in-jokes, and pointed commentary to examine the messy creative process whereby two writing legends challenged each other and the studio system to develop a film noir classic.
Director Garry Marshall keeps the action and quips flowing through fast pacing and dynamic rhythm. He builds effective emotional and character arcs throughout the show, enhanced by the cast's fine timing. Marshall draws excellent performances from the small cast, with leads Kevin Blake and Shaun O'Hagan exhibiting a palpable chemistry with each other. O'Hagan lends dignity to the brittle, repressed Chandler, while Blake injects lethal wit to Wilder. Ali Spuck provides infectious charm as wisecracking secretary Helen Hernandez, and Anthony Starke gives an expressive performance as worrywart executive Joe Sistrom.
Production work is also first-rate, from Keith Mitchell's sleek, studio office sets, to Jeremy Pivnick's dramatic film noirish lighting, to Terri A. Lewis' elegant interpretation of 1940s' wardrobe, save for the contemporary ties and golf hat.
Billy & Ray hilariously presents the creative battles involved in producing the film Double Indemnity, while providing a sympathetic look at two writing legends. The Falcon Theatre presents Billy and Ray Wednesdays—Saturdays at 8 p.m., and Sundays at 4 p.m. through April 28 at the Falcon Theatre located at 4252 Riverside Dr. in Burbank. Tickets cost $34.50-$37 Wednesdays-Thursdays, and $39.50-$42 Fridays-Sundays. Students with valid IDs can purchase $27 tickets. Tickets can be purchased online at falcontheatre.com or by calling (818) 955-8101.

If any-one has experiance with this type of furnace I would appreciate your comments. This furnace burned canal coal with no problems, but this type of coal is hard to find. I also burned ant nut with no problems. The price of bit is making it look real attractive.

|Graham, Terry, 1919?-
|Covington, Amanda
|Oral history interview with Terry Graham, March 22, 1999
|1999 Mar. 22
Mooresville, North Carolina, resident and taxi service operator Terry Graham describes his changing town in this interview. He worries that the town has "just outgrown itself" and is at risk of being swallowed up by nearby Charlotte; already, businesspeople from the racing industry are infiltrating the town, says Graham, and he worries about the effects of the closing of Burlington Mill on African Americans. The future for Mooresville as Graham sees it does not look bright for its lower-income residents. Perhaps the most significant change Graham describes is desegregation. He remembers a relatively uneventful process: though the white and black community disagreed about whether it was the white school or the black school that should undergo the conversion to an integrated facility, that and other questions were handled peacefully, even when Martin Luther King's assassination roiled the community. This interview offers a glimpse of a town in flux, sprawling toward an uncertain future.

Keywords: eculizumab, safety, meningococcal, vaccine, post-marketing
Eculizumab is a monoclonal antibody that inhibits complement component C5. Eculizumab-treated individuals are at increased risk of developing invasive meningococcal disease due to drug-induced terminal complement deficiency. In 2007, eculizumab was approved by EMA and FDA for treatment of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinura (PNH), and is being reviewed for treatment of atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS).
To review the current post-marketing safety requirements for meningococcal disease prevention in eculizumab-treated individuals, and describe characteristics of identified disease cases.
Published articles and product approval summaries were reviewed for meningococcal disease cases in clinical trials. Post-marketing reports of cases through the year 2010 were identified from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System.
As part of the risk management strategy for preventing invasive meningococcal infections, all patients treated with eculizumab must be vaccinated with an age appropriate meningococcal vaccine beginning at least 2 weeks before initiating eculizumab, and patients are to be revaccinated according to country-specific recommendations for individuals with late complement component deficiencies. Eculizumabtreated patients are provided a Patient Safety Card that describes possible signs and symptoms of invasive meningococcal infection for which the patient should seek immediate medical attention.
Of nineteen identified pre-licensure trial/post-marketing cases of meningococcal disease, the median age was 24 years (range 15–54). All but one individual had received a meningococcal vaccine as follows: tetravalent conjugate (n=4) or polysaccharide (PS, n=6), bivalent/monovalent PS or conjugate (combined n=8), and in n=3 the type of vaccine was not identified. The median time from first eculizumab dose to event onset was 5 months. Of 13 cases with known serogroup, seven were due to serogroup B. In 37 aHUS patients, no meningococcal infections occurred during the 26 weeks of eculizumab treatment. No cases of recurrent invasive meningococcal infection among eculizumab treated patients have been identified to date.
If approved, increased use of eculizumab for the treatment of aHUS would include greater numbers of pediatric patients. Invasive meningococcal infections can be anticipated among eculizumab-treated patients due to drug-induced complement deficiency, vaccine failure, and the lack of safe and effective licensed meningococcal serogroup B vaccines. The availability of multivalent infant meningococcal PS conjugate vaccines and serogroup B vaccines would optimize current strategies for meningococcal disease prevention.

$1.4 Mil Grant for Premed Education and Scientific Training
Awarded to Millsaps College
Millsaps College has received a $1.4 million grant from the prestigious Howard Hughes Medical Institute to redesign its science curriculum. The new curriculum is aimed at expanding the number of students interested in pre-medical education and deepening scientific training for all students.
The Howard Hughes Medical Institute is a non-profit organization that ranks as one of the nation's largest philanthropies and plays a powerful role in advancing biomedical research and science education in the United States. Millsaps was selected from a nationwide pool of 187 schools as one of 47 colleges to receive an award based on the strength of its record in science education and the proposed initiative. This grant builds on the College's stellar community of teacher-scholars, state-of-the-art laboratories and research oriented approach to the teaching of science.
S. Keith Dunn, senior vice president for academic affairs and dean of the College remarked, "The Howard Hughes Medical Institute grant will help Millsaps expand its longstanding leadership role in educating future physicians and healthcare providers. Our enhanced curriculum will allow us to play a central role in addressing Mississippi's critical need for more and better trained physicians. The HHMI grant will also increase science literacy for all Millsaps students."
According to the Kaiser Family Foundation, Mississippi's physician population percentage is among the lowest in the nation. Mississippi has 18.2 physicians per 10,000 people compared to a national rate of 27.7 physicians per 10,000 people.
Timothy J. Ward, associate dean for sciences and professor of chemistry at Millsaps, explained, "Our interdisciplinary classes will teach undergraduates how to apply knowledge from one science discipline to another, which is essential for a successful medical career. We will be educating future physicians so they will be able to think from a number of perspectives and treat patients holistically."
In 2009, the Association of American Medical Colleges and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute released "Scientific Foundations for Future Physicians," developed by a committee of scientists, physicians and science educators. The report is a clarion call to undergraduate institutions to redesign premedical requirements that have remained largely unchanged for decades and do not reflect 21st century competencies that entering medical students must have mastered. Millsaps is answering that call. "In fact, we are the only college in the state to receive funding to develop and implement this new curriculum based on the latest and best practices in science education," Ward said.
The grant will also fund opportunities for Millsaps students to present research findings through the Mississippi Academy of Sciences as well as regional and national scientific organizations. These experiences will not only provide rich opportunities for students but will disseminate information about this model program and its outcomes to other institutions.
An advisory board including faculty and administrators from the University of Mississippi Medical Center has been created to further support the enhancement of Millsaps' pre-medical education program. The UMMC Advisory Board will assist the college in developing the curriculum and assessing the program. Steven T. Case, associate dean for medical school admissions at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, said, "This unique partnership with Millsaps will provide a seamless pipeline for professional training of students studying to be physicians and other healthcare professionals."
Partnerships with the Howard Hughes Medical Institute and UMMC support the College's new strategic plan, "Across the Street and Around Globe: Partnerships and Influence at Millsaps College." One of the key pieces of the strategic plan is a new and distinctive educational and leadership program that leverages Millsaps' location in the capital city of Mississippi and in the communities it touches around the world. Dunn explained, "The program is designed to expand the reach of our classrooms - embracing opportunities in our neighborhood to ensure that students graduate with real-world skills and experiences that will be an advantage to them in their careers and in their future contributions to their communities."
Millsaps President Robert W. Pearigen said, "At Millsaps, we not only want to attract great students, we want to change how students think in ways that will make them transformative leaders in their chosen fields and in solving complex problems of the 21st century. This highly competitive award from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute is evidence that our programs and faculty are superb. It will help us expand the number of students interested in the advanced study of science, and it comes at a strategic moment in Mississippi history as plans to unite the medical, higher education and corporate communities around promoting Jackson as a regional healthcare destination gain increased attention."

I live in Abington, Massachusetts, a small community south of Boston in Plymouth
County. At one time it was much larger than it is now. including areas that broke
off to form the neighboring towns of Rockland and Whitman. The area is often
referred to as the TriTown Area, and Abington as it was before the breakup is
called the "Old Town".
Mt. Zion Cemetery in Whitman is located on Washington St. near Whitman
Center.It's across the street from the boyhood home of Cardinal Spellman of
New York. (It's a funeral home now). The Washington St. entry isn't noticeable
so it's possible to drive past it without realizing it's there at all. The main entrance
is around the corner on Robert Avenue but the older graves are back up by the
Washington St. entrance.
As I said, Whitman was once part of Abington. But it is still a bit ironic that
the "First Male Child" born in the "Old Town" lies buried in Whitman.

TUNE-UP AGAINST T & T: Late last week the USA played a tune-up match against Trinidad & Tobago in Cyprus, with goals by Brek Shea and Bryan Arguez helping the U-20s to a 2-0 win against their CONCACAF neighbors. In a rainy afternoon on the Mediterranean island, head coach Thomas Rongen used all field players for at least 45 minutes in the game. In an off-the-field note, midfielder Kyle Davies and T & T's Jake Thomson enjoyed a reunion of sorts: the two were roommates during their time at Southampton in England.Â
GETTING INTO THE MIX: One of the newest members of the U.S. U-20 team, Mikkel Diskerud, has only been a part of two training camps before arriving in Cyprus, but has quickly adapted to his surroundings and his teammates. Diskerud, whose mother is American and father is Norweigian, is a dual citizen of both countries and grew up in Oslo. He has family from both sides in Arizona, which he gets to visit a few times a year during the holidays and offseason. On the soccer side, Diskerud made his Norweigian league debut in 2008 and featured in a Champions League qualifier for his team earlier this year. ussoccer.com sat down with the midfielder and asked him about his experience thus far with the U.S. national team.Â
COMING TOGETHER: One of the biggest challenges for this age group is blending players who play in Europe (3), Major League Soccer (7), USL(1) and college (9) to form a cohesive team in just two short weeks leading up to Sept. 26.

PODCASTING WITH PERI: One of the most experienced members of the U.S. team, forward Peri Marosevic has been through U.S. Soccer's Residency Program and been a staple of the U-20s since the start of the current cycle in late 2007. The FC Dallas forward's leadership both on and off the field is an important part of the team, and ussoccer.com sat down with the former Michigan Wolverine for an exclusive podcast from the team hotel in Cyprus.
EXPERIENCE ON THE FIELD: Goalkeeper Brian Perk and midfielder Bryan Arguez are the only U.S. players on the squad with prior experience at a FIFA U-20 World Cup. Both were members of the 2007 team that advanced to the quarterfinals in Canada, with Perk featuring between the posts for the second round come-from-behind victory against Uruguay. Five players were members of the U.S. team that competed in the FIFA U-17 World Cup in 2007. Joshua Lambo, Sheanon Williams, Danny Cruz, Jared Jeffrey and Brek Shea were all part of the team that advanced to the second round in South Korea. Perk is also a U-17 veteran, having competed in the 2005 edition of the tournament in Peru.
EXPERIENCE ON THE BENCH: Few countries on the youth international stage can boast the experience that comes with having 11 previous world championships under their belts, but that is exactly what the U.S. has on its bench before even arriving in Egypt for the FIFA 2009 U-20 World Cup. In fact, the only other team in the USA's group that has world championship experience on the sidelines is Korea Republic, as head coach Hong Myung-Bo was an assistant coach at the 2008 Olympic Games. To go along with Thomas Rongen's two previous U-20 World Cups in 2003 and 2007, his assistants at the 2009 event have experience at the U-17, U-20 and Olympic levels, having all been a part of U.S. efforts at big tournaments in the past. Read more about the experienced 2009 U.S. U-20 coaching staff here.Â
U-20 VETERANS: One look at the USA's most recent FIFA World Cup qualifier reveals how U-20 veterans have had an impact even after their time in the U.S. Soccer youth system. Eight of the starting 11 in Trinidad & Tobago are veterans of FIFA U-20 World Cups: Carlos Bocanegra ('99), Tim Howard ('99), Oguchi Onyewu ('01), Landon Donovan ('01), Clint Dempsey ('03), Jonathan Spector ('05), Michael Bradley ('07), Jozy Altidore ('07). Substitute Benny Feilhaber played in the 2005 World Cup, while from the reserves Steve Cherundolo ('99) and Chad Marshall ('03) also have U-20 ties.Â
MEETING DILLON POWERS: One of the youngest members of the U.S. team, Dillon Powers has come a long way in the past year. His first training camp under Rongen came in June, and by August he was named to the final roster. Still eligible for the 2011 FIFA U-20 World Cup, the Notre Dame freshman talked to ussoccer.com about his journey from Development Academy Player of the Year to World Cup. Â
BLOGGING IT UP: Don't forget, you can always keep up with the U.S. U-20 MNT's daily activities, travel, training and off the field happenings by keeping up with the new YNT Blog on ussoccer.com.
- The USA leads CONCACAF in FIFA U-20 World Cup matches played (45), wins (17) and tournament appearancess (12, including 2009).
- The U.S. has scored in seven consecutive U-20 World Cup matches, dating all the way back to their match against Germany in 2005 which ended scoreless.
- Forward Eddie Johnson is the only American to win the Golden Boot during a FIFA U-20 World Cup. His four goals in the UAE in 2003 were a tournament best.

Proform 415 LT Treadmill Review
treadmill Doctor Note :
Arguably the worst value Proform ever. Just when we thought they had turned the corner, they release the 415 LT.
Avoid this treadmill like you would avoid the bubonic plague.
The Proform 415 LT is a disappointing treadmill to say the least. Proform had been steadily improving recently, but they really set themselves back with this model. Even at $699, you're paying too much for it. Considering how hard it is to find a quality machine at this low of a price, that's really saying something.
The walking area is fairly small, which isn't uncommon for such an inexpensive treadmill. The walking belt measures in at 18" x 50", this is significantly smaller than you're standard 20" x 60" belt. If you have a long stride, you may be tempted to run too close to the console with this model. This can force you to alter your stride, which has the potential to lead to injury.
The motor on this machine is pathetic. You usually see treadmills with this little power producing capabilities selling for about $300 less than this one. Theoretically, you can reach speeds of up to 10 mph with this model, but if you try to use this model for anything other than occasional, light walking, the structure and drive system won't hold up for long.
The cushioning system is one of the worst we seen. TreadSoft Cushioning is used to reduce the impact of running on your joints and back. It's better than pavement, but most treadmills will provide a much more forgiving surface. Luckily, if you try to run on it, you'll cause more damage to the machine than you will your body.
The projected reliability of this treadmill is its bright spot. As long as it's used correctly, it will have one of the longest life expectancies of any sub-$1,000 model. The quality of parts is very good for a machine that costs $699.
It's one of the louder models you're going to find. In this price range, that's not particularly surprising, but you can do better if you know where to look. If low price and quietness are major concerns for you, you're going to have to do your homework to find a model that suits your needs.
The warranty for the Proform 415 LT is horrible. Parts and labor are covered for 90 days and the motor is covered for 10 years. We don't blame them for offering this type of coverage. We blame them for making a treadmill that made them feel they couldn't offer better coverage.

T-mobile has problems with service coverage areas like in remote areas and the Mall some store has T-mobile service and some don't. The big stores that have no T-mobile service are Macy's and Targets which is hard for me when my wife pick up some clothes and try to call me "call failed". 10 years with Tmo never improve their service coverage.

This is fantastic. I really, really did not think we would see a Nokia on U.S. soil for a while, like the summer, 2012 buying season. I do not know if I could wait that long for a replacement to my ever-so-dying Palm Pre Plus, but I am very, very interested.

one thing you cannot accuse nokia of is that their phone are always complete with features at reasonable price. its their os that killed them. hope this time they get it right.

It just seems that Sprint has been doing well enough with Android phones and want to focus more on that, same thing with Verizon, I mean they do have that Droid lineup that works incredibly well with them. I like the variety AT&T is providing with their handsets.

16GB is atrocious for such a high end model. I hope they rethink that and add a 32 and 64GB version to the mix.

MY MONDAY STAPLE. 21 Jan 2013
I am a chocoholic. I cannot (and do not) go a day without my fix. If you run into me on a Monday, there's a good chance that you'll see me with Lithe's Thinny Mint Shake in hand. Some of you love it and some of you, well, not so much. I like to set people's expectations on this one because most people associate chocolate and mint with a Shamrock Shake or a Girlscout cookie. Not our Thinny! This lean treat from our detox plan is healthy, light and detoxifying. Our mint is FRESH and the chocolate is SUBTLE. Train your taste buds to want the real thing in the beginning of the week, and over time, you'll want less of the processed stuff. Shake it up!

Type of Document Dissertation Author Cush, Randall Charles URN etd-0409103-165104 Title Diffusion of a Rodlike Virus in Complex Solutions Degree Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) Department Chemistry Advisory Committee
Advisor Name Title Paul Russo Committee Chair Dana Browne Committee Member Steven Soper Committee Member Vince LiCata Committee Member Elmer Godeny Dean's Representative Keywords
- depolarized dynamic light scattering
- tobacco mosaic virus
- tmv
Date of Defense 2002-05-18 Availability unrestricted AbstractEntanglement phenomena in concentrated polymer solutions remain an interesting and challenging problem. It is still unclear how entanglement onset affects polymer chain motion at small distance scales. One way to study such motion is to follow the diffusion of a probe particle while increasing the concentration of the polymer. Many such studies have been done using probes ranging from linear and star polymers to various colloidal particles; however, relatively few studies have used rodlike probes. Rodlike probes are potentially more interesting due to the added information that may be gained by following rotational as well as translational diffusion. The anisotropic diffusion may allow the probe to sense something different as chains begin to entangle.
The situation is unclear even for the simpler polymeric structures such as rigid rods. Due to lack of experimental data, the nature of interactions of rigid rods in concentrated solutions remains uncertain. Given the vast theoretical descriptions available, the current challenge is to find suitable rigid model particles. To date, self diffusion data for truly rigid rods is limited to only one system, colloidal boehmite, which was quite polydisperse.
Described here is the use of depolarized dynamic light scattering to measure the rotational and translational diffusion of the rodlike virus, Tobacco Mosaic Virus (TMV), through solutions of random coil and globular polysaccharides, taken separately. The polymers are effectively invisible in the depolarized scattering experiment allowing only the TMV probe to be seen. Also described is the use of fluorescence photobleaching recovery to measure the self-diffusion of TMV as a function of concentration in the isotropic regime.

President Barack Obama has signed legislation to keep the federal government running for another six weeks. Congress must now finish work on agency budgets for the new fiscal year.
The measure was part of an agreement reached by congressional Democrats and Republicans late last month that averted a government shutdown at the end of the fiscal year on Sept. 30.
The law provides funding for government operations through Nov. 18. It gives lawmakers time to combine individual spending bills into one and incorporate spending limits agreed to earlier this year. Those negotiations could still go astray if tea party-backed Republicans push for further cuts.
Obama had been expected to sign the bill into law later Wednesday, but signed it when he returned to Washington after appearances Tuesday in Texas.

I have been recording and producing the online TV show Technology and Friends for over a year. After over 70 episodes, I have found things that work well for me. This series is a detailed account of how I put together each episode.
Part 1: Preparation
Part 2: The Interview
Part 3: Equipment
Part 4: Post-Production
Part 5: Sharing with the world
In the last article, I explained how to edit a video and export it to a single MPG file. In this article, I will discuss how I share this video with the world.
After I finish editing the video in Adobe Premiere Elements, I export it to a single MPG file. This is done by selecting the "Share" tab in the top right section of the editor. On the Share tab, I use the following settings: Personal Computer |MPG | NTSC DVD Standard. I enter a file name and select a directory and click the [Save] button to create a single MPG file containing my complete show.
Once I have a single MPG file, I can easily share it with others.
I upload the exported WMA file to a video-sharing site. I use Viddler because it is free and provides reasonably high-quality playback.
Viddler provides the ability to upload a file directly from their web site. I add metadata, such as a name and a description to each video.
I link these videos from both DavidGiard.com and TechnologyAndFriends.com.
Viddler provides a button ("Embed This") that generates the HTML necessary to embed a video into a web page. I copy this HTML and paste it into a post on my two sites. Above the embedded video, I add some text to describe the video and any relevant links, such as the guest's blog. I release both posts on the same day.
After releasing a new episode, I promote it via Twitter. I also send an e-mail to my guest, telling him or her that the interview is now available. Often my guest will link to the show from a blog or tweet, driving more traffic. If we are discussing someone else in the video, I often will e-mail that person or organization. After interviewing Jamie Wright about 37 Signals last year, I e-mailed 37 Signals to tell them about it. They linked to the video, which drove over 10,000 viewers to watch it.
My goal is to release at least one video every week, so I usually have a backlog of videos recorded, produced and ready to release.
On average, it takes me approximately 2 hours to produce a 20-30 minute show. This is in addition to the hour or so it takes to set up, prepare and record a show. So far, I've done this almost 80 times.

COSTA MESA Police could begin offering rewards of up to $2,000 for tips that lead to the arrest of people suspected of vandalizing property in the city.
The proposed policy, which received tentative approval Tuesday from the City Council, will expand upon a city policy that has for decades allowed Costa Mesa police to offer up to a $2,000 reward for helping to solve graffiti crimes.
The new law is expected to be drafted and formally voted on in the coming weeks; it would apply to both public and private property.
The city initially drafted the law to apply only to public property, but council members on Tuesday called for broader application.
"If we're going to do it on public property, we should do it on private property," city Councilman Steve Mensinger said during Tuesday's meeting.
The law would give the city's police chief discretion to decide if and how much to award to a tipster who helps police apprehend a suspect.
The city would seek to recoup the reward's cost from the suspected vandal, or from his parents if he's a minor, according to a city report.
City Councilwoman Sandra Genis said Tuesday she was concerned some residents might want the reward policy invoked every time a car window is smashed. But she added that she supported the law in the wake of a high-profile vandalism incident last month in Costa Mesa.
On Feb. 23, 31 cars parked in a residential neighborhood near South Coast Plaza were found spray-painted with smiley faces, lines and the words "ha ha," according to police. An American flag and lighting fixtures also had been spray-painted.
Even before the car graffiti incident last month, Costa Mesa has been hit with multiple high-profile vandalism incidents in the past few years.
In July 2013, the words "free the animals" were spray-painted in 2- to 3-foot-high letters on the exterior of gourmet taco eatery Taco Asylum at The Camp shopping center, police said. This incident followed a similar one months earlier targeting the Meat House near 17th Street and Newport Boulevard. A group known as the Animal Liberation Front claimed responsibility for both incidents.
And in January 2013, a Costa Mesa city maintenance worker was charged with misdemeanor vandalism for allegedly removing and destroying campaign signs in the weeks leading up to the November 2012 city election. Steven Charles White was accused of vandalizing signs in support of the now-defeated Measure V city charter measure and three council candidates. White, who pleaded not guilty, is awaiting trial in Orange County Superior Court, according to court records.

Hello and welcome to the first of a regular column leading up to one of the most exciting things to happen in my life, the start of the 2014 Tour de France here in Yorkshire.
As such, I thought a good place to start would be with a write up of my experience taking on the 2014 Tour de France Grand Depart from Leeds to Harrogate.
In the months leading up to Le Tour, I will try to provide a view of cycling from the perspective of a regular club rider, looking at the history, culture and workings of my sport, hobby and over-riding (pardon the pun) passion.
I hope this column will provide a useful introduction to the sport for newcomers, while being interesting to more experienced riders.
I will aim to cover a range of topics surrounding cycling, leading up to a guide on Tour terminology, nuances and riders and teams to watch out for. Most of all I hope that you will have as much fun reading it as I will writing it.
I am a qualified Sky Ride leader and can be followed on Twitter @yorkvelo
Name: Christopher Gargett Age: 35 – should be old enough to know better than to wear all over Lycra and shave my legs!
Hometown: Halifax – went to York St John from 1996 to 1999 to study History and York has felt like home ever since (despite a ten-year stint in London).
Passions: Cycling, York and the Yorkshire countryside, film, food and drink
I decided to hold a double celebration last July… one year to go until the greatest show on two wheels hits York and 35 years since I came kicking and screaming into the world.
So it was that I emailed the man responsible for my cycling addiction, my brother Martin, and my uncle who is still churning out the miles well into his 60s. "Hi. Do you both fancy doing the Tour de France Yorkshire Grand Depart?" ran my nonchalant opening line.
"200-odd miles in two days. It'll be fun. Plus it's my birthday, so you can't say no," I continued, shamelessly emotionally blackmailing my relatives.
I should point out at this stage that I'm prone to this kind of overly ambitious thinking. I've seen the Tour de France on TV for years, I've ridden all around York, North Yorkshire, Helmsley and the Moors. How hard can it be?
I laughed off my brother's questions about "training" and "willingness to suffer" with what I'd like to think was the kind of savoir faire displayed by the French cycling pros of the 60s and 70s.
So it came to pass that at 8am on July 13, four brave souls set off from Millennium Square in Leeds and headed north with spirits high and the sun shining in a clear blue sky.
It was a great day to be going out for a spin. Avoiding morning traffic we soon hit Harewood and moved on through Ilkley towards the Yorkshire Dales. Words (well, my words anyway) cannot come close to describing the sheer Lord Of The Rings, picture postcard, dramatic beauty of this part of the world. I mean, it's seriously good looking – the George Clooney of natural eco/geological development.
That afternoon in the Dales provided the proudest moment in my cycling life to date, as I "danced on the pedals" to the top of Buttertubs Pass, the highest part of the 2014 Tour de France in the UK, almost floating past the "25 per cent incline" sign with a wry grin on my sweat crusted face.
Ten minutes later it also provided the most terrifying moment as a major, properly soaked to the skin in five seconds, rainstorm hit just as we approached the "25 per cent descent" sign.
As my view of the world was reduced to the narrow gap between my sunglasses and helmet, I started to gather an alarming amount of speed. My heart skipped a few beats as brake pads were reduced to slushy useless rubber on red-hot wheel rims while I desperately tried to slow down, avoid sheep (can't wait to see Chris Froome and the rest of the peleton negotiating that obstacle next year) and generally stay upright.
We eventually all got down safely at varying speeds according to our ability (I was last), having narrowly avoided livestock, and began the long journey towards York.
The rest of the ride took us tantalisingly close to the Black Sheep Brewery at Masham, available in pretty much every good bar in York and well worth a pint or three, and on past the favourite spot of that most famous Son of York, Richard III, at Middleham Castle.
Back to York and home after a total of 148 miles and thoroughly deserving of the greatest pie ever made. Not by my fair hand, but purchased the day before from that outstanding York bar, The House of the Trembling Madness in Stonegate.
If it's one thing a hungry Yorkie likes, it's a pie. And the Steak and York Brewery Centurion Ale Pie from THOTTM is a PIE.
"You could feed a family of four with the contents of that and then move them into the crust," declared Martin. Even Uncle John, veteran of many a pie, looked impressed. Four giant pies, mushy peas and some beers (isotonic, electrolyte and protein replacing beers, of course) at the Tap & Spile in Monkgate later and we were ready to turn in, happy, possibly delirious and feeling that satisfying variety of knackered all at the same time.
Only another 80 miles to go to Halifax tomorrow.
Le Tour de France will come to Yorkshire on July 5 and 6. It will enter Harrogate with what promises to be a dramatic sprint finish on day one and then set off from York city centre on the next morning.
The biggest mass live participation sporting event in the world will be on our very own doorstep and will truly be a once in a lifetime opportunity.
If you love cycling, then you will be counting the days.
If you are curious, then I implore you to dust off that bike in the garage or head down to one of York's bike shops (I can't recommend Cycle Heaven in Bishopthorpe Road highly enough) and give it a go.
Check out www.goskyride.com for family friendly organised rides.
But you are warned… you might just get hooked and maybe even start shaving your legs.
