1015 Folsom St, San Francisco, CA | Directions 9410537.778048 -122.405682
Fri 10pm-6am Sat 10pm-7am
Neighborhoods: SoMa, SoMa (South of Market), Central East
One of the best venues in SF for edgy new music! – Friday nights at 1015 (I think they call it 103 Harriet that night) are the best! They always bring in hot dubstep, electro, indie DJs and throw awesome parties! My favorites have been the Low End Theory nights, Kraddy, Martyparty, Gold Panda and SBTRKT. I can't wait for Afterburn tomorrow night too! I <3 1015 Folsom!!
Cutting Edge Shows & Great Music – 1015/103 Harriet has been bringing in awesome cutting edge shows over the past few months. I've been to a few of the Low End Theory events, which are awesome underground dubstep/hip hop shows featuring DJs and artists primarily from LA. I was also there for a packed RJD2 show a couple months back that was also really sick. Cool spot!
terrible place , will never go again – I have been witnessed to an extremely traumatic experience at 1015 Folsom and that is the reason just joined citysearch to post my concern.
Yesterday with a group of friends, were in guest list line to get in for Deep Dish right at the door, but there was a huge line at either side of the door and also many people on the sidewalk and street toward the front door. A young guy tried to sneak in form the front, a bouncer yelled at him with the loudest voice and then like it wasn't enough to send the guy to back off, he put both his hands on this guy's neck and started choking him to the point that his eyes started rolling back in his skull, he started moving the guy with his hands still around his neck to the middle of street and then throw him to the ground!
I have been in many small and large and mega clubs in Toronto, different cities in US and Europe, never witnessed such a disturbing scene! The bouncer literally assaulted the poor guy which he was only guilty of being sneaky and trying to get in! The young guy about 5'6" and the bouncer massive body and 6'2" probably? (When he yelled at the guy, he immediately started going back, no choking was required) I just hope that this young guy is OK, and I also hope that he realizes that what happened to him was not right and he should press charges against the club.
At that same moment my group moved in the club, no one checked our ID and we just went in.
A little bit about music experience, which is far away from any club that I have ever been, very poor quality, over compensated by massive base that I assume people should be high enough to enjoy, since there was nothing pleasant about sound system. Although I was so traumatized by witnessing the assault done by bouncer that I could not stay and experience the bad music and decided I would just leave. So after less than 10 minutes in the club, I just left. Will never ever go to this club ever again! And advise everyone to not go until the management change the way they treat people at the door.
Definitely Avoid on any night of the week. Worst Customer Service I've ever seen in my entire life – Ok so this club is seriously one of the worst I have been in my life, and trust me I've been to many different clubs before as I've lived pretty much all over the world. But in all my years of clubbing and traveling I have never seen such horrible customer service be it from the bouncers or the bartenders ... Oh and by the way, don't ever take a cab in SF, they are the biggest jerks I've ever encountered as well. I've never had such a rude cab driver. The guy was hella discriminating ( I'm half french half german and my friend is from Africa-Togo) and the whole ride he was complaining and being a big douche. At the end of the cab ride, he goes: You're welcome A-Hole foreigners". If my 3 girlfriends had not holded me back, I woulda ripped that cab driver a new A-Hole but right on his face. Anyway, so I go to 1015 Folsom and order 3 drinks for us. The bartender (some ugly asian yakuza) was a total douche with no customer service at all. I ask him how much I owe him for the drinks and he goes: " I already f.... told you, it's ...." To which I respond: " Wow come down there, what's up with the customer service in this city, you're the second douche I encounter tonight...". He goes like "yea w/e just give me my f.... money ". I threw the money in his face and got the hell out of that club. This was the second time I went there, and the second time it was empty as hell ( now I understand why) and no customer service. Drinks are expensive and they barely put any alcohol. Basically a big rip off and a tourist catcher. DO NOT GO THERE ON ANY DAY OF THE WEEK. SAVE YOUR MONEY OR GO TO LIQUID !
Avoid if you don't want to be stabbed – Me and a couple of my friends went there on a Saturday night to watch DJ Paul Van Dyk play. Anyway, we got bottle service and a table, we went to the main area for a bit and came back. A bunch of guys had taken over our table, and when we tried to go and sit there, they threatened us and pushed us out. When we called security, they did nothing about it. The guys who threatened us were still there, and we decided to leave. Point is, if you want to get your money's worth, do NOT go there. Gangs and other questionable characters hang out there, and security does nothing about it.
A shadow of its former self – many, many years ago 1015 was known as "martinis" and was considered THE place to be. it had an underground but hip vibe to it. i can even remember the lines to get in would wrap around the block....and that was b4 the doors even opened (they also had a "velvet rope" policy). fast forward a couple decades and although we now have a much renuvated venue and better sound systems...the majority of the clientele are...questionable. to prove a point, i believe it's the only BIG s.f. (mostly) dance venue that pats you down and uses a metal detector. more has been improved to keep out the undesirables like better lighting (it was WAY too dark in some parts of the different rooms) and even more renovations but they really need to keep radio hip hop outa there and change up the constant trance in the main room (all that trendy hyphy stuff keeps bringing in the unclassy wannabes and the trancey junk always brings in the tweakers).
The Best BARTENDER EVER! Gwen is Amazing! She makes the best Hanger Lime Cosmo's! Good DJ line up and Hot guys all around!
This is only a good club IF you are ASIAN – This club should be renamed 1015 ASIAN as everyone in the club but the two in my party were all Asian. In a city as large and diverse as San Francisco why would anyone want to go and dance here unless you were specifically looking for an Asian date! The DJ was decent downstairs but I would not recommend this club to anyone until it is under new management.
Fun – I went with my man on a Saturday night/morning. Line was pretty long, going around the block. I think the cover was a bit much ($20), but there are a couple of dancefloors inside, & they were playing some good trance that night. Parking wasn't that great, although one guy from the street helped us get a spot. Wasn't feeling the dancefloor upstairs, & didn't check out the one below. Main dancefloor was okay, but I really liked the trance dancefloor. Overall, I had a good time, will definitely go back, but will try to get on a list in order to avoid that pricey cover!!
WOW!! what a transformation – 1015 slipped of for a while, but me and my girlfreinds went there this past weekend, and wow, security was realy freindly, sexy people. the remodeling they did is amazing, I almost couldnt recognize it anymore. definitly go to the website 1015.com . you can get in for free on most saturdays by signing up. they even have bottle service.

2Pac – How Do U Want It LyricsFollow
[Hook: KC and JoJo]
How do you want it?
How does it feel?
Coming up as a nigga in the cash game, living in the fast lane
I'm for real
How do you want it?
How do you feel?
Coming up as a nigga in the cash game, living in the fast lane
I'm for real
[Verse 1: 2Pac]
Love the way you activate your hips and push your ass out
Got a nigga wanting it so bad I'm about to pass out
Wanna dig you, and I can't even lie about it
Baby just alleviate your clothes, time to fly up out it
Catch you at a club, oh shit you got me feening
Body talking shit to me but I can't comprehend the meaning
Now if you wanna roll with me, then here's your chance
Doing eighty on the freeway, police catch me if you can
Forgive me I'm a rider, still I'm just a simple man
All I want is money, fuck the fame I'm a simple man
Mr. International, playa with the passport
Just like Aladdin bitch, get you anything you ask for
It's either him or me -- Champagne, Hennessey
A favorite of my homies when we floss on our enemies
Witness as we creep to a low speed, peep what a ho need
Puff some mo' weed, funk, ya don't need
Approaching hoochies with a passion, been a long day
But I've been driven by attraction in a strong way
Your body is banging baby I love it when you flaunt it
Time to give it to daddy nigga now tell me how you want it
[Verse 2]
Tell me is it cool to fuck?
Did you think I come to talk, am I a fool or what?
Positions on the floor it's like erotic, ironic
Because I'm somewhat psychotic
I'm hitting switches on bitches like I been fixed with hydraulics
Up and down like a roller coaster, I'm up inside ya
I ain't quitting 'til the show is over, cause I'm a rider
In and out just like a robbery, I'll probably be a freak
And let you get on top of me, get her rocking these
Nights full of Alize, a living legend
You ain't heard about these niggas play these Cali days
Delores Tucker, you's a motherfucker
Instead of trying to help a nigga you destroy a brother
Worse than the others; Bill Clinton, Mr. Bob Dole
You're too old to understand the way the game's told
You're lame so I gotta hit you with the hot facts
Once I'm release, I'm making millions, nigga top that
They wanna censor me; they'd rather see me in a cell
Living in hell -- only a few of us'll live to tell
Now everybody talking 'bout us I could give a fuck
I'd be the first one to bomb and cuss
Nigga tell me how you want it
[Verse 3]
Raised as a youth, tell the truth I got the scoop
On how to get a bulletproof, because I jumped from the roof
Before I was a teenager, mobile phone, Skypager
Game rules, I'm living major -- my adversaries
Is lookin worried, they paranoid of getting buried
One of us gon' see the cemetery
My only hope to survive if I wish to stay alive
Getting high, see the demons in my eyes, before I die
I wanna live my life and ball, make a couple million
And then I'm chilling fade 'em all, these taxes
Got me crossed up and people tryin to sue me
Media is in my business and they acting like they know me
But I'mma mash out and peel out
I'm with a clique that's quick to whip that fuckin steel out
Yeah nigga it's some new shit so better get up on it
When ya see me tell a nigga how ya want it
How do you want it?

January 18, 2014 - I tried the milk chocolate. It's pleasantly sweet, not too rich, and absolutely melts in your mouth; definitely lives up to the name Divine. It's a little pricey for a chocolate bar, but worth it for any special occasion that demands a heavenly treat.
January 10, 2014 - I ordered the 70% dark chocolate and I'm very disappointed it's not in stock I want more
July 28, 2013 - This is the best chocolate I've ever had. I love all 3 flavors.

Quoted in:
Creation Ex Nihilo 22(4):23, Sepember–November 2000
'A religion is essentially an attitude to the world as a whole. Thus evolution, for example, may prove as powerful a principle to coordinate men's beliefs and hopes as God was in the past. Such ideas underlie the various forms of Rationalism, the Ethical movement and scientific Humanism.'
'Humanism: An outlook that places man and his concerns at the centre of interest. Modern Humanism, which does away with traditional Christianity, is characterised by its faith in the power of human beings to create their own future, collectively and personally.'
In other words, evolution = religion. That is, people (not God) set whatever rules they want. In practice, this usually becomes 'might makes right', including the tyranny of the majority.
Growth of Ideas. The evolution of thought and knowledge. Ed. Sir Julian Huxley, 1965, pp. 99, 336.

I;ve installed iATKOS v5i onto my Toshiba Qosmio X300 laptop. Everything works fine when i set the startup option to "-x" safe boot. About the only things that dont work once in are audio and SLEEP.
I'm wondering if these missing capabilites are due to Safe Boot. I've messed around with NVRAM and decided to remove "-x" to see if normal boot would work. It seems to now but i'm suspcious that this is still safe mode.
How do i check what mode my OSX is currently in?

There are no bike lanes here.
No Divvy bike-share racks. No Tour de France impersonators. No flocks of young professionals breezing past with suits and skirts tucked inside their panniers.
What there is, here on East 71st Street in Chicago, is Leroy Ricks' Bike Clinic.
Ricks' shop occupies a buttonhole of a room, hot in summer, that sits next to empty storefronts that used to house a tailor and a barber. I stopped by the other day to ask: What's it like to ride and sell bicycles far from more fortunate neighborhoods where biking is a way of life?
Within 10 minutes, something happened to make the answer clear: Not easy.
Ricks, a compact man of 51, was working on the bike of a regular customer, Kevin Chandler, when I walked in.
They were vaguely aware of the city's new Divvy bike-sharing program, but for now, that was for other people, other parts of town. Here on 71st, they'd be grateful for less.
"The mayor and them saying we're a biking city," said Chandler, who bikes far and wide and knows that the biking city is in other neighborhoods. "We need bike lanes."
The South Shore neighborhood needs more than bike lanes. It needs investment. Jobs. Places to play for all the unsupervised kids who tumble out of the crowded old apartment buildings just across from the Bike Clinic.
A lot of people here can't afford a decent bike, and even if they could, the money might not be worth the risk.
"Who wants to buy their kid a $200 bike?" Ricks said. "Chances are the kid won't have the bike the rest of the summer anyway."
Translation: It will be stolen.
Ricks learned the bike business in the years he spent assembling Huffy bikes in big-box stores. He wanted to sell better bikes, and on his own.
At the Bike Clinic, he relies on the grit and loyalty of cyclists undeterred by price, traffic and neighborhood crime. He has no competition, and cyclists occasionally straggle over from the nearby lakefront path.
"Don't be afraid, cyclists!" wrote one of several positive online reviewers. "No one's going to mess with you if you venture off the trail. ... Proprietor is kind, fair, hard-working dude."
But the dude's patience is often taxed.
As we talked, a guy from the neighborhood — he was wearing a "Jesus Wept" cap, backward — walked in. He had propped his bike in front of the shop. As if from nowhere, a group of young people appeared in the doorway.
Ricks has dealt with young troublemakers ever since he set up shop a decade ago. For a while, his windows were broken so routinely he learned not to waste the $150 it cost to board them up and instead just called the glass company immediately. He stopped selling the little BMX bikes the kids liked because that gave them less to desire and therefore to steal.
If a good kid comes around, he'll let him in, help him fill his tires, hand him a wrench and show him how to tighten up the handlebars.
But he offers no slack for the troublemakers.

Ledian is a mediocre NU Baton Passer.
Baton Passing Ledian. He learns some decent moves in Swords Dance and Agility, and with his above average Special Defense can take a hit from Alakazam and hit it back with a Swords Danced Silver Wind. Ledian is decently fast, so if you can switch it into... uh... a Choice Band Brick Break or Earthquake, it can start to setup. Skarmory will obviously stop you... but... LEDIAN LEARNS THUNDERPUNCH! DENIED.
Special Attacking Ledian loses STAB, but takes advantage of Ledian's slightly more diverse movepool and higher stat. Hidden Power Dark is mostly for Chimecho.
Other Options
It can catch Wigglytuff on the switch with Focus Punch and maybe do about 50% damage. Toxic can be used to do some indirect damage while stalling with Ledian's high Special Defense.
Ledian should usually have max HP and a defensive spread. Some attacking spreads, however, may find it useful to go with more offensive EVs.
Checks and Counters
Anything with a physical attack, especially a Rock move.

It's hard to believe that it's been 40 years since DELIVERANCE has been released. While it's not your typical horror film, it does have elements that classify it as more of a psychological horror.
The Cahulawassee River valley in Northern Georgia is one of the last natural pristine areas of the state, which will soon change with the building of a dam on the river, which in turn will flood much of the surrounding land. As such, four Atlanta businessmen - Lewis Medlock, Ed Gentry, Bobby Trippe, and wide-eyed Drew Ballinger - decide to take a canoe trip on the river, with only Lewis and Ed having any experience in outdoor life. They know going in that the area is ethno-culturally homogeneous and isolated, but don't understand the full extent it until they arrive and see what they believe is the result of generations of inbreeding. Their relatively peaceful trip takes a turn for the worse when half way through they encounter a couple of hillbilly moonshiners. That encounter not only makes the four battle their way out of the valley intact and alive, but threatens the relationships of the four as they do and are asked to do things they never thought possible within themselves.
Based on James Dickey's novel, this film tells the story of an ill-fated canoe trip in deep backwoods America, where the people are as scary as the country is beautiful.
Warner Home Video brings DELIVERANCE to Blu-ray for it's 40th Anniversary in a very special Blu-ray book edition, which includes a new featurette and a 42-page commemorative book with behind-the-scenes photos and rare insights.

Services at the Center
Services are offered in 3 main areas: Education, Support and Referrals.
The classes, workshops, and seminars offered at the Women's Center are designed to address issues of concern to women.
Seminar and workshop topics range from self-defense to personal health and from spirituality to political issues. The Women's Center is dedicated to bringing well known speakers to address contemporary issues facing CSUN's women. Most programs and events are academically co-sponsored by the Women's Studies Department.
The Women's Center also houses a library which provides an informal atmosphere for studying, socializing and relaxing.
Informal peer support is always available at the Women's Center. Support and discussion groups offer valuable forums for personal growth and exploration in such topics as sexuality, self-esteem and body image, health and feminist spirituality. New groups form as interest develops. Suggestions are always welcome.
The Women's Center maintains an extensive referral file for the campus and community. This resource is available on a phone-in or walk-in basis. The file encompasses a wide range of local practitioners, agencies and organizations specializing in such areas of concern as women's health, drug and alcohol abuse, counseling and legal aid.
Each semester, the Women's Center hosts an Open House. Events are planned throughout the Fall and Spring semesters. In March, the Women's Center sponsors Women's History Month with a series of events celebrating women from diverse perspectives.
The Women's Resource & Research Center thrives because of the students who volunteer there and staff the positions available. Please contact the Director or Assistant Director of the Center to participate.

I bought this mattress in '09 believing the hype that a high end mattress would give me a wonderful sleeping experience - was I ever wrong. First I tried the DeluxeBed. I do not have a bad back, but this mattress sags and I awoke most mornings with a lower back ache, something that didn't happen on my old inner spring mattress. Thinking it was my mattress selection, I exchanged (upgraded at considerable additional expense) it for a more expensive mattress, the Allura. It has the same problem - Tempur sags under weight and I only weigh 160 lbs. I know this because I dissected this very expensive mattress and removed the Tempur layer. Without the Tempur layer there is no more sag and no more lower back ache. I don't normally write reviews, but because I read them as a means of evaluating products before I purchase, I had to share my (bad) experience with these mattresses.

I wake up refreshed. I use to wake during the night and turn on the TV. Now I am up before the alarm and i don't have to nap during the day.
on 12/16/11
I had a celebrity bed that I liked. Then I got the allura, I do not like it it saggs in the middle I only weigh 185. I'm not happy with it. The support is to soft. Thumbs down for it.

Got the new bed and began assembly with my daughter. Took us about 40 minutes to assemble. All of the hardware was present along with the supplied allen wrenches and tools. The bed was well packed and there was no shipping damage. Ease of assembly 4 out of 5 stars. You need to read the instructions... I am a Quality Engineer by trade and have a discerning eye for such things as weld quality, material quality, workmanship, and craftsmanship. The bed frame is much sturdier than I expected it to be. Workmanship is good, and all of the welds are solid. The threaded holes lined up very well, and in pre-fab this isn't always the case. The fit and finish is very good. Style-wise, this bed hits a home run. The headboard and footboard are three dimensional, and much more appealing to the eye than many of the iron beds I've seen. We placed the queen sized mattress into the frame with no problems. The frame is solid and there were no squeaks or creaks at all. My daughter is exceedingly pleased with her birthday present!
I selected this bed frame because I really liked the metal work. I've never been a fan of sleigh-style beds, but this one is nice and open. I ordered the bed on a Monday and received it on a Friday. The bed arrived in 2 boxes: the headboard and footboard in one, the rest of the frame in the other. I made sure all the pieces and hardware items were present and then proceeded to put the bed together, which I did by myself. The whole process took me about 1 hour 15 minutes. The instructions are adequate. The allen wrenches needed are provided with the hardware. The bed is very sturdy, and I'm extremely pleased with this purchase. One note: there are 3 supports for the box springs that run parallel to the head and foot boards. I don't think these are visible in the picture. They add to the structural integrity of the whole frame, although they would cause a dust ruffle to be bunched in a few places. That's not a concern for me. I'm very, very pleased with this purchase!
I am so happy that I relied on other reviewers comments and purchased this bed! This is a heavy, sturdy bed of quality construction. The color is hard to see in the photos, but I would describe it as a beautiful oil-rubbed bronze color, not shimmery or brassy. Matching wood furniture pieces to this bed will be easy. This bed works well in a vintage home with antiques.
This bed is very solid and well made. It's even more gorgeous in person than it appears in the picture. The color is dark - it's an oil rubbed bronze. I ended up selling it to a friend, only because my bedroom is smaller, and I've never had a sleigh bed. Because of the curved "sleigh" featured of the headboard and footboard, it takes up an extra 1.5 feet of space. So it will not fit flush up against the wall. I did not realize this, as I've never had sleigh bed before. That is the only reason I sold it - my small bedroom. I can't afford to lose 1.5 feet of space. Other than that, it's a steal. It's gorgeous and solid. If you've got the room, go for it!
I recently purchased this bed for myself. It was fairly easy to put together and is sturdy. I was a little afraid being a metal bed it would squeak, but the plastic washers prevent any metal on metal noise. Very happy.
I love the look of this bed. Put it together myself in about an hour--nothing to complicated. And it looks antiquey--like I paid much more for it than I actually did. So happy with this purchase!
The bed sits high even for my old mattress and box spring. I love my metal bed.
I am impressed with the quality of this and I am especially relieved that it is sturdy and doesn't feel flimsy and it doesn't squeak or get wobbly in any way (as is common with metal beds). It is very sturdy and large - the shape of the headboard & foot board allow for room of plenty of pillows and your feet wont touch the footboard. I was also very happy to see that the assembly was a breeze- all that is needed is included, tools and all and is just a few steps. A very beautiful, elegant bed for an amazing price. I am a satisfied customer.
I was totally impressed with the quality of this bed. Very solid and was relatively easy to put together. Took 2 of us less than an hour for assembly. Everything lined up perfectly and once complete with bedding it looks fantastic. I would definitely recommend this bed to anyone looking for quality and fine detailed bedroom furniture.
Absolutely Love it! Really softened up our master bedroom!

Do not make a mistake to get involved with this salon. The owner doesn't have a clue about respecting customers. She is rude and you will realize that since from the beginning when you call ta make an appointment. The staff is not good (especially the hairdresser, a young girl that was clueless about hair cuts). I was so disappointed I couldn't even go to finish the paid visits (it was a certificate of 4 services, already paid upfront). I swear, it's that bad!!!
my friend same way, had a community appreciation program paid voucher of 4 services, she was shocked how rude they were at this salon, didn't go back! Save yourself the trouble ladies!!!
Best Brazilian Wax – I was so afraid of getting a brazilian wax but my fears were put at ease from the minute I called this salon! The person on the phone was kind and was able to get me in that same afternoon! The technician was so skilled that I barely felt a thing! Not to mention she was so funny that by the time it was over I couldn't even believe it! Highly recommended and yes I will be getting more services here - see you soon!
Gem in the Heart of Rocky River! – My husband bought me a gift certificate to Prive Salon and Spa and I could not thank him more! What a fantastic experience and my hair is finally healthy looking and no longer frizzy! The owner and the workers could not have been more hospitable and wonderful even putting a feather in my daughters hair! I can't wait to go back - you are the best!
Buyer Beware – My husband purchase a "Smart Card" for a Christmas gift. I call to make an appointment. The first woman I spoke to was rude to me. She told me I must have the card present when I set my appointment. I called back a few days later and spoke to another woman who set up the appointment. My schedule changed at work and I needed to reschedule the appt. I called and cancel, and wanted to reschedule. The woman hung up on me before I could ask for a new date. I will not be visiting this place. If two reps are rude on the phone. Bad business practice.
Horrible Experience – They have the MOST horrible customer service and POOR attitude... just because I showed up 10 minutes late they treated me with so much attitude and then told me that they would reduce my massage time by 15 minutes since I was late and STILL CHARGE ME the FULL PRICE of $70 plus tax and gratuity !! -- they really have NO IDEA of how to treat customers..... THEY SUCK !!!

Negative Experience
Average Interview
I applied online and the process took 3 months - interviewed at The Hartford in November 2012.
Interview Details Received a call from HO HR to complete an online application and a "Profile Assessment." The Assessment was rather straight forward, not as bad as others I have taken. I a few weeks I was contacted again by HR to interview with what would be my manager if hired. I drove 2.5 hours to meet for lunch. We had a nice interview, allowing me to also ask questions. I inquired as to the next step and was told they had other candidates, and it would be 3-4 weeks before I was contacted again. I waited 4 weeks and sent an email to the manager. He called me back and said that his boss in Chicago would like to interview me as the next step. I then received another call from the recruiter, she inquired if I was still interested in the position, since the time since the initial interview was quit long, indicating that the position was placed on "hold." I agreed to meet with the region manager, I drove another 6 hours, paid $80.00 in fuel, $37.00 for parking, and was never offered a drink of water. The interview as "behavior" based, lasted 2.0 Hr. My final question to the manager was "what is the next step in the process?" He indicated the same as the other manager. AsI was leaving the interview, the Region Manager told me " the next step is retirment," which floored me, since I am a seasoned professional. II waited another 4 weeks, sent a note to the original manager, he indicated a decision has not been made, and would not for some time after the holidays. 5 hrs after I received his email, i received a call from the HO HR person, informing me that they selected another individual, with more experience in "sprinkler hydraulics" then I. I was floored, we never discussed this subject matter in depth. After the holidays, I find The Hartford has posted the same position on Linkedin!

Abstract: The fetal brain is highly plastic and is not only receptive to but requires cues from its environment to develop properly. Based on an understanding of evolutionary biology, developmental plasticity, and life history theory, one can predict that stressors are an important environmental condition that may influence brain development. In fact, the available empirical evidence appears to support the notion that exposure to excess stress in intrauterine life has the potential to adversely affect short- and long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes with implications for altered susceptibility for mental health disorders in childhood and adult life. In this presentation, we provide a rationale for proposing that endocrine and inflammatory stress mediators are key candidate pathways for programming brain development. These mediators are responsive to a diverse set of intrauterine perturbations and alter key signaling pathways critical for brain development, including but not limited to mammalian target of rapamycin, Wnt (wingless), Sonic hedgehog, and reelin signaling. We suggest that recent advances in neuroimaging and other methods now afford us an unprecedented opportunity to advance our understanding of this important topic. Additionally, we provide empirical evidence from two recently published papers for fetal programming of human brain development. We conclude by suggesting some future directions for expanding this field of research.

Women's Golfer of the Week
Jennifer Ha, Kent State
Junior Calgary, Alberta(Sir Winston Churchill)
Junior Jennifer Ha carded a tournament low 1-under 71 in the final round of play at the John Kirk/Panther Intercollegiate for second place in the overall standings. The Calgary, Alberta native completed the 54-hole tournament with a score of 226 (74-81-71) while leading the Golden Flashes to a tournament title. Kent State earned 14-over 931 (311-318-302).
Men's Golfer of the Week
Casey Olsen, Eastern Michigan
Senior, Okemos, Mich./Okemos(Oakland University)
Due to unseasonable snow Sunday evening and Monday, this week's C&F Bank Intercollegiate was declared final after the first round was completed Tuesday afternoon. Eastern Michigan University senior Casey Olsen and Notre Dame's Cory Sciupider finished tied for the top spot after a three-under par 67. The EMU men's golf team finished fourth overall, just three strokes behind No. 27 Tennessee at 285.
Olsen's victory was the first of his career and his second career top-10 showing. The individual title is the first by an Eagle since Graham Hill won the 2007 Mid-American Conference Championships. Additionally, his three-under 67 was just one shot off his career-low of 66 set in the second round of the Windon Memorial, Oct. 16, 2011.

Anyone who loves sports cars should send a thank-you note to Toyota and Subaru.
The two companies teamed up to produce the first all-new, affordable sports car the world has seen in several years.
That's a rare thing because true, hard-edged sports cars are difficult to engineer and even harder to sell. They just don't move in big numbers because, out of necessity, most drivers lean toward cars that are more practical and comfortable. At some level, sports cars are toys, after all.
But, after spending a week driving Toyota's version — which is sold as the Scion FR-S here in America — I'm pleased to learn that this sports car is legit.
It's not a semi-sporty coupe like the old Toyota Celica. It's not a comfy grand tourer like the Hyundai Genesis Coupe. It's a real, honest-to-goodness sports car designed entirely around the driving experience.
The suspension is tuned to have a far rougher, stiffer ride than most cars. You can feel every tiny pebble on the pavement, which is perfect for drivers who want to test its limits. It's all about experiencing the road and becoming one with the road, not being isolated from the road.
Handling is ideally balanced thanks to its basic, classic sports-car layout: the engine up front, with power going to the rear wheels. That gives it a slight tendency to oversteer when you turn off the traction control and apply power while cornering — exactly what a fun sports car ought to do.
Much in the spirit of my beloved Mazda Miata, this is a car that lets drivers push their limits without killing themselves.
Compare it to the Chevy Corvette, for example. While the Corvette is a faster and more expensive car, I don't enjoy driving it as much as the FR-S because it's so much harder to test its boundaries.
With the Corvette's wide, sticky tires and giant V-8 engine, you almost have to be a professional driver — or simply foolhardy — to discover where it loses grip in ultra-high-speed turns.
With the FR-S, though, ordinary drivers can have a lot more fun. Its narrower tires lose their grip through corners at lower speeds and very smoothly, not suddenly, letting a mere-mortal driver do a delicate dance with the throttle and steering wheel to keep it composed in turns.
It makes a ham-fisted driver like me feel like an Andretti.
Power comes from a 2.0-liter, naturally aspirated, horizontally opposed "boxer" four-cylinder engine that's derived from Subaru, but it's fitted with a high-tech fuel injection system called D-4S that Toyota previously used in its Lexus division.
It makes 200 horsepower, which is impressive in a car that weighs just 2,758 pounds.
While Subaru sells a near clone of this car called the BRZ, which I haven't driven yet, my first indication is to lean toward the Scion just because of the way it looks. The Scion has a smoother, cleaner, more classic shape in my eyes.
Still, this isn't a car for everyone. Rear visibility is limited by a thick pillar in back. The trunk is tiny, and the back seat is a total joke. It's going to be a noisy, rough riding, fairly impractical car by design. But that's what makes it a real sports car, something that's beautiful inside and out.
It's also the reason you should pick up your pen and write "thank you" to the engineers and companies that poured their hearts and souls into building a vehicle that appeals to a small but devoted cult of driving purists.
Better yet, take it for a test drive and experience it for yourself.

With a first-half free throw, junior forward Doug McDermott scored his 11th point of the Bluejays' Valley tournament opener Friday and passed Rodney Buford to become the school's all-time scoring leader with 2,117 points. McDermott ended the game with 2,1129 points.
With his first five points of the game, McDermott passed Bob Harstad (2,110) and the next six helped him overtake Buford (2,116), the last two players ahead of him on the Bluejays' career scoring chart.
It took Buford and Harstad four seasons to amass their point totals. McDermott has notched his in 105 games over three seasons.
The Creighton athletics YouTube account posted video of the free throw:

The tech giant and its court-appointed antitrust monitor are having a hard time seeing eye to eye. Apple is objecting to the lawyer's "excessive fees" and "inappropriate manner."
While it's still a step behind the Roku 3, the Apple TV is an excellent streaming box, especially for those invested in the Apple ecosystem.
US Judge Denise Cote, who ruled that Apple conspired to fix e-book prices, denies the company's attempt to throw off a monitor that was appointed to oversee its antitrust compliance.
Apple's attorney files a notice of appeal, which seeks to overturn a federal judge's decision that Apple orchestrated a conspiracy to cut out e-book competition and raise prices, as well as penalties the judge ordered.
The company offers its own set of measures for complying with the fallout from its loss against the Justice Department.
Judge rules that Apple orchestrated a conspiracy to cut out e-book competition and raise prices, handing the U.S. government a big win and smacking Apple with a verdict it said could put a chill on media deals.
The U.S. Department of Justice and Apple delivered opening statements in court Monday. Sumi Das speaks to CNET's Josh Lowensohn about why Apple turned down a settlement, and how it might defend itself against allegations of fixing prices on e-books.

At a meeting Thursday between the Talladega and Calhoun County emergency management agencies and McCord Communications, engineers said they were working to update the 800 MHz communication system between the two counties' warning sirens, which they believe caused both to malfunction while operating simultaneously.
"They're working on ironing out changes to the system," said Jonathan Gaddy, director of the Calhoun County EMA. "So far they've had some successful tests."
Officials initially detected the problem during a routine siren test last week, when several sirens in both counties failed at the same time. Although the counties' sirens operate independently, the 800 MHz radio communication system between the two counties operated on the same channel, meaning data sent from both counties was lost.
It's a potentially dangerous problem, said Deborah Gaither, director of the Talladega County Emergency Management Agency. Since 2002, there have been 23 instances when both counties were under simultaneous tornado warnings.
"I'm glad we detected the problem during a test," Gaither said. "Now we can work toward making sure we don't have a failure in a real situation."
Engineers have taken two steps to fix the problem, Gaddy said. First, they have opened up more channels for the counties to use. Second, they are working on upgrading the system so counties can overlap on the same channel without losing data.
Gaddy said several "silent tests" have shown improvements, but a "live test" will be conducted on Wednesday at 9 a.m. The test will coincide with the National Weather Service's Severe Weather Awareness Week and tornado drill day, happening throughout the state.
"That's the closest to a real-world scenario situation we can have," Gaddy said.
As of Thursday, Gaither said, engineers told officials 95 percent of the sirens were in working order.
"We told them that number was unacceptable," Gaither said. "The other 5 percent is just as important. We need to get to 100 percent."
Gaddy said he feels confident that with the changes being made in the system, the problem should be fixed for Wednesday's test. If some of the county's 108 sirens still malfunction, he said the engineers will still be able to pinpoint which sirens aren't working properly and why and make proper adjustments.
In a worst-case scenario, however, Gaither said it's important for residents to report failures.
"If you're outside and can't hear the sirens (during the test), you need to contact your local Emergency Management Agency," she said.
Gaddy said while the communication system can automatically tell officials if sirens are malfunctioning, reports from the public, especially detailed and specific locations, can help corroborate information provided by the system.
It's also important, Gaddy said, for residents to continue to use other systems, such as email and social media notifications for severe weather alerts.
"The first thing people do when they hear a siren is they try to find out what's going on," Gaddy said. "That's why having all these systems working together is so important."

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I really like this invitation style. It's simple, initmate, and gorgeous. The quality of the paper is great. The only thing I noticed with the photos is after printing, they're not quite as sharp as they are in the digital version. I'm not sure if this is because of the type of paper used or what, but it didn't ruin the invitation for me. I still think it looks good. Another issue I had was the way the invites are packaged. They come in a shrink wrap, and it's difficult to get the plastic casing off without scratching the invitation itself. Luckly, it just scratched the last one, and I had ordered a few extra, so I just kept that one to be for myself. I customized my color and wording on the inside. It was remarkably easy. I just googled the values for the color I'm using (royal blue) and put in the values. It made me a little nervous since I couldn't see it in person beforehand, but it looks great."
"After looking at samples from a number of different companies I decided to order my wedding invitations from Wedding Paper Divas and I'm really glad I did! I submitted my artwork and within 2 days they had a digital proof for me to look at. I even received a phone call to let me know it had been sent. At this time I decided to make a quick change and they had a new proof to me within the hour. I was expecting to wait a couple weeks before receiving them but within 2 days of approving my final artwork they were already at my door! They look great, feel great and I'm so excited to send them out! Thank you for your excellent customer service!! I will highly recommend you to anyone I know that needs invitations and will be sure to come to you again when I need anything else!"
"I fell in love with our invitations once we received them! The quality of the paper and print was excellent. So far, the reactions from our guests upon opening them have basically been: "WOW". If you are looking for something unique, and a good way to show off your engagement photos, this is definitely the invitation to go with! The delivery time was also exceptional, as they arrived a week earlier than expected! Thank you so much Wedding Paper Divas! You've exceeded my expectations, and I would do it all over again! :)"
"I chose this card because I wanted my invite to be folded as well as have photos on it. This fit the bill perfectly. On the cover I had just one large photo of us, while the bottom three were other themes (flowers, heart, and bible verse). The quality was just what I wanted and I was able to fit my wedding invitation wording into it with no problem. I have gotten so many compliments on it! My only small complaint was that there was not an standard option to put text on the back. I would have loved to put my registry, rsvp info, etc. back there. But ended up buying shipping label stickers and sticking on in the back and they turned out just fine! I would definitely buy them again!"
"So much fun to design the cards before making a final decision. We used the photo cards to make it much more personal and give our guests a keepsake. We hope to do the same for the Thank You card where we use a wedding photo. I was very pleased with the quality of the paper although the colour of the groom's shirt was off a bit. It was a royal blue and it came out purple. It looked okay on the computer though. We haven't yet sent out our invitations but I am sure there will be lots of oohs and aahs. Thank you."

Grey's Anatomy Promo: "Adrift and at Peace"by Steve Marsi at .
As we saw on this week's Grey's Anatomy, "Slow Night, So Long," Derek is taking Cristina's lifestyle change fairly personally. That's why when the show returns December 2 (it's off next Thursday), he takes her on a fishing trip to get away from it all!
That should be interesting to say the least.
Meanwhile, tensions rise between Meredith and Owen in the OR, and Teddy does all she can to help a dying patient with no insurance. Here's a promo for "Adrift and at Peace" ...

yes, I also think that mer will have a breakdown in this episode. In the sneak peek with owen and the girl who had an accident, you can see that mer is really worried about her. Because mer remembers how it feels to almost lost her husband. So in the promo, she tries to convince owen to save the girl's husband and she crosses the line. I think that all the shooting thing will come back to her mind and that she will break down in front of owen, or something like that...
Wonder how owen will react if it actually happens!
(sorry if my english isn't really good --> i'm french)
It's not clear if the 'you don't have a plan' relates to the surgery or Cris. I had thought Mer's comment was about Cris at first, but now I'm not sure. It's all in the editing of the promo. Mer's last speech sounds like someone has edited it together rather than it being in the script.
But I'm wondering if Owen reacts like that because Mer has hit the nail on the head about his lack of a plan re Cris. Is Owen feeling guilty because he doesn't know what to do? That arguement between Meredith and Owen doesn't have anything to do with his attending status.
But we all know Cris will be a surgeon again. I just hope it doesn't gobble up the rest of S7 because I want to see less DerCris and more MerDer
Derek takes Christina fishing....he still is trying to help her because she saved him. Owen and Mer well....he's not sure how much she and Cristina share and she doesn't trust him. The trailer will show the dramatic scenes but not the whole picture.
while Derek is helping Cristina in this episode...will this see Mer finally hit her PTS? Will we see them come to terms with the almost loss of life and the loss of their baby?
