UH Mānoa's John A. Burns School of Medicine (JABSOM) Assistant Professor Michelle Matter and her colleagues in the Department of Cell and Molecular Biology and the Center for Cardiovascular Research have discovered a molecular pathway that may help reduce the damaging effects of an enlarged heart, caused by hypertension or a heart attack.
Enlargement of the heart, called cardiac hypertrophy, stretches cardiac cells, causing the cells to release Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF). VEGF helps protect cardiac function and keep cardiac cells alive.
"We have found that stretch of adult cardiac cells promotes release of VEGF through activation of the NFkB signaling pathway," said Dr. Matter, an Assistant Professor of Molecular Biology. "Targeting this molecular pathway may alleviate the pathological effects of hypertrophy and increase survival of patients who have had a heart attack or suffer hypertension."
Matter's research, conducted in conjunction with Dr. Eugene Konorev at the University of Hawai'i at Hilo, is published today in PLoS ONE, a peer-reviewed medical journal. The research was funded by the National Center for Research Resources, part of the National Institutes of Health.
More than 3,100 people in Hawai'i die of cardiovascular disease every year, according to The Burden of Heart Disease in Hawai'i, a report to the Hawai'i State Department of Health (DOH).
Further, the report suggests as many as 70% of the adults in Hawai'i have at least one risk factor for cardiovascular disease, including diabetes, hypertension and obesity.
Residents of Hawai'i Island, Native Hawaiians, Filipinos, and the poor have higher risks for cardiovascular disease, according the DOH report.
Ways to lessen your risk for heart disease include lowering high blood pressure, reducing high cholesterol, not smoking, engaging in more physical activity, managing diabetes, and controlling weight.
Dr. Matter's paper is published on line at: http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0029055.

Q: What is your only comfort in life and death?
A: That I am not my own,
but belong--
body and soul,
in life and in death--
to my faithful Savior Jesus Christ.
He has fully paid for all my sins with his precious blood,
and has set me free from the tyranny of the devil.
He also watches over me in such a way
that not a hair can fall from my head
without the will of my Father in heaven:
in fact, all things must work together for my salvation.
Because I belong to him,
Christ, by his Holy Spirit,
assures me of eternal life
and makes me wholeheartedly willing and ready
from now on to live for him.

The Holocaust Deprogramming Course is a comprehensive list of the main body of factual arguments refuting the alleged Jewish Holocaust of World War II; as well as video documentaries, books and technical reports. With an open mind and basic critical thinking skills anyone who works their way through this list can not come away still believing the fictional Holocaust narrative that millions of Jews were exterminated in gas chambers using Zyklon-B.
The three basic facts are:
1. There was no plan to exterminate Europe's Jews. Only to deport them.
2. No homicidal gas chambers existed at any of the camps during the war and no examples of a genuine homicidal gas chamber exist today at any of the camps nor has anyone shown how these non-existent homicidal gas chambers were supposed to technically function.
3. The six million figure has been officially false since 1989 when the official death toll at Auschwitz was reduced from 4 million to 1.5 million.
"The Holocaust is a deeply anchored belief even in people who know very little about it. We can see that not only does disbelief in the Holocaust myth threaten modern Jewish identity as shaped by political Zionism, but for others it brings into question the credibility of those in authority who told everyone it was true: the state, the churches, the schools, and media of every kind. These sources are the same ones people trust and depend on every day for information. If these trusted authorities are wrong about the Holocaust, what else are they wrong about? What other dishonesties are they promoting?" – John Weir, The Holocaust as Myth: Betraying the Public Trust
"It's not a matter of what is true that counts but a matter of what is perceived to be true." – Henry Kissinger
"The men the American people admire most extravagantly are the most daring liars; the men they detest most violently are those who try to tell them the truth." – H. L. Mencken
"The Holocaust has proven to be an indispensable ideological weapon. Through its deployment, one of the world's most formidable military powers, with a horrendous human rights record, has cast itself as a 'victim' state, and the most successful ethnic group in the United States has likewise acquired victim status. Considerable benefits accrue to this specious victimhood – in particular, immunity to criticism, however justified." – Norman G. Finkelstein of the City University of New York in The Holocaust Industry (2000), p. 3

ABC Goes to Bat for Obama: GOP 'Falsely' Peddles President's 'You Didn't Build That' Line
ABC on Tuesday dropped any pretense of objectivity and defended the President over his "you didn't build that" attack on business. In an online article, ABCNews.com writers Amy Walter, Elizabeth Hartfield and Chris Good dropped this spin into a supposedly straight news report: "Republicans have seized on the line 'you didn't build that' to falsely claim that Obama was speaking directly to business owners about their businesses."
The ABC writers whined that the Mitt Romney campaign and the Republican National Committee have "been relentless in pushing" the attack." Walter, Hartfield and Good then cheered, "The Obama campaign, it seems, is not going to take it anymore."
They sympathetically recounted, "This morning, Obama's deputy campaign manager Stephanie Cutter 'debunks distortions' and defends the Obama record on small business in a new video."
Walter, Hartfield and Good went on to compare the situation to the 2004 "Swift Boat" attack.
Here's what the President said on July 13:
You didn't get there on your own. I'm always struck by people who think, well, it must be because I was just so smart. There are a lot of smart people out there. It must be because I worked harder than everybody else. Let me tell you something — there are a whole bunch of hardworking people out there.
If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you've got a business — you didn't build that. Somebody else made that happen.
ABC, clearly sensing that the "you didn't build it" line was bad for Obama, ignored the comment for five days before reporting on it.
In contrast, ABC played up Mitt Romney's "I like to fire people" remark back in January, highlighting hecklers who mocked, "Will you fire the baby?'

Nashville Season 1 Episode 3 recap
Country music, y'all! I am loving getting all your mail and reactions to Nashville as we all get into this world and what it entails together. I regret to inform you all that we're about to have a fight though, I think.
I got more than a few emails telling me that Scarlett and Avery are trying their best to stay protective of their relationship and that it's okay if you're afraid of hurting your partner because you get something they want and etc. I guess I could have understood, at the end of last week, how this was a way you could see things.
And yes, I guess I can understand, after watching this week's episode, how Avery is more than just a dick boyfriend. Maybe not much more – after all, the shattering sound of his keys landing on the table might as well have been a glass breaking – but I see that his jealousy about the fact she's songwriting with another dude is separate from his jealousy that she's singing for Watty White.
But I cannot care about her, or be interested in her, a girl who wants absolutely nothing unless he wants it for her – a girl who's messing up the sounds in her early takes because her mouth won't face the microphone because she's too busy watching him. If these are the beginnings of an artist and her Svengali story, I can understand that, I guess, except that why do I care about Scarlett at all if she can't be bothered to care about herself? I know the answer should be "that damn haunting song at the end", but I actually am beginning to find it hard to believe that this girl with no desires beyond making Avery happy has these feelings inside at all. That might be a little too simplistic, but Lord, with the dresses and the wide eyes and the Oh No Mister I Just Couldn't Interrupt Your Busy Day Mr. White, she's insipid, and Gunnar isn't much better but at least he has an outward goal and a not-all-that-well hidden inward goal of winning Scarlett's heart. Scarlett's just all out there on the surface, and she is the epitome of Make Your Boyfriend Happy Barbie, and I can't handle it.
In fact, plastic, manufactured Juliette comes far closer to being a real person that the supposedly "down to earth" Scarlett. In a manner of speaking, that is. I think everyone agrees that Hayden Panettiere has been the early surprise of this show, becoming quite…watchable? Her glare at her assistant when she says the whitestrips really worked is just enough. Half-boss, half-friend. I thought it was interesting how much she said "please" last night, even if she was mostly irritated with people when she spat it. She was, in a way, brought up right? Or dragged up, as my mother would say.
The thing that's so alarming here is I think we're still supposed to think that Juliette is young. Maybe not sixteen, but certainly no older than 23 or 24. How long has she been estranged from her mother? How many times have they done this dance? You mean to tell me she hasn't sent her money to ask her to leave her alone before now? I know that this is, sadly, a really common story – the leeching parent on the successful child. Leighton Meester is the one who keeps coming to mind here. So fine, Juliette needed her mom and she wasn't there, and now she's back in her life, and I get all this. She's desperate for Deacon in her life because she needs musical validation and a Daddy, and you'd think he'd be a little more cautious about getting involved with her because I bet you cash money this is not the first or even the fifth time he's run into a musician with a complex. But Deacon has Demons Of His Own (and let's talk about those – I'm sure we'll find out more, but wouldn't you think if Rayna was the love of his life that the drug problems would maybe come later? Seeing as addicts can't love anyone but themselves?) and I'm really worried that they're going to try to make her ripping off of a nailpolish, caught on camera as a parallel to how he, too, is damaged, and then I might have to kill myself. Because, here's the thing…
This show is not exactly the most subtle.
Rayna's story is my least favourite this week. I…what now? Okay, so if Rayna's tour isn't selling that well, and she is burning through money, and she hasn't yet learned how to manage her manipulative father all these years later - like, twice an episode she hisses at him to get out of her life but she keeps on talking to him – and she's fluttering between two men who are still pretty weak options then…what's she good at, exactly?
I know, she's still supposed to be a successful artist (I found it interesting that she didn't sing this week) and logic says she's a good mother, because those daughters are adorable; I particularly loved the joy in the line "That's a dollar!", and rewound it a couple of times. But then I started looking at Rayna watching her daughters perform (for the uninitiated, they are real-life musical sisters, originally from Canada, and they have a 'flip-cup' video that rivals the one from Pitch Perfect).
Mamas seem to disappoint their babies on this show, or at least on this episode. We learned this from the incredibly heavy-handed conversation Rayna had with her sister out of the blue, as if they wouldn't have talked about this a million years ago. The following phrases were actually uttered:
"He Hates Your Career Because Of Mom."
"It was like…the two men together somehow made a whole marriage."
So through those rather on-the-nose pieces of information we get that Mama was not the woman Rayna thought she was. I figure it's a matter of time before she's not the woman her children think she is. Before singing, and the careers that will inevitably be offered to them, she will disappoint them. Maybe when she has to yank them out of their private school because of no money, because her pride is so important? Maybe when they find out she's stringing Deacon along, and has been for years?
I watched that last scene with Rayna and Deacon several times. She's holding hearts in her hand, but hers is in pieces, but she should be saying something that she isn't? She should be saying that it's all over but he and music are the same? Given that we're supposed to understand Rayna's been faithful since Maddie was born, I guess, what exactly does he get from this noncommittal woman? I do think he cares about her – there's something in the way that he calls her Rae. And
my phone ring is just a supercut of Coach Taylor saying "I tell you what" over and over again. The first time Deacon said it to Rayna tonight, something in my heart broke, just a little. But I don't know what he's getting from standing incessantly beside a woman who's all "oh hey, don't go but also don't love me or look at me that way".
Rayna's childish, and part of that is probably that she assumes her husband is a well-behaved lapdog and isn't totally keeping financial secrets from her that I'm sure will never come out. I don't mind that quality in a main character, but…but. Given that she's apparently not going on a big tour and seemed momentarily to be contemplating not going on a small one, and that she only seems to love Teddy when it's convenient, and thinks that constantly turning off songs on the radio will turn off the feelings in her head, I need her to DO something instead of just reacting all the time. Even if it's a bad decision.
I hope it's a bad decision.

BEIRUT - Residents of a besieged rebel-held suburb of Damascus issued an urgent plea on Monday for the international community to save them from starvation and constant bombardment after efforts to evacuate civilians from the area collapsed this week.
The humanitarian situation in Moadamiyeh west of the capital has been deteriorating for months as troops loyal to President Bashar Assad have blocked food and supplies from entering, activists say. Around 3,000 residents of the suburb were able to flee the area late last month during a rare, temporary cease-fire.
Aid agencies say Syrians across the country face difficulties getting food, but hunger in the rebel-held suburbs of Damascus, largely surrounded by government territory, is particularly acute.
In an open letter circulated by the main Western-backed opposition group, Moadamiyeh residents pleaded with the international community for help.
"Save us from death. Save us from the hell of Assad's killing machine," the letter said. "For nearly one year, the city of Muadamiyah has been under siege with no access to food, electricity, medicine, communications, and fuel."
The Syrian National Coalition, the main umbrella group for the opposition, called on international organizations to establish a humanitarian corridor to allow food into the area. On Saturday, the United Nation's humanitarian chief Valerie Amos called for an "immediate pause" in clashes to allow civilians to leave.
A spokesman for the Moadamiyeh council, Qusai Zakarya, confirmed that local residents had sent the letter to the Coalition asking for help.
"We are heading toward a definite destiny: starvation," he said via Skype, with the clap of shelling and the thumping of a helicopter audible in the background. "Please, we are begging you (international organizations) to enter and distribute food. Residents are living on boiled grape leaves and olives," he said.
Activists say that for months, Syrian troops at checkpoints surrounding the battered suburb west of Damascus have not allowed food or medical supplies to enter. The siege is aimed at squeezing out rebels from the area, they say. It is not certain how many civilians remain, but activists estimate around 12,000.
Activists from the Moadamiyeh Media Center reported that six people died of starvation in September: two women and four children.
In a reprieve for some, the Syrian Red Cross and Red Crescent helped evacuate some 3,000 civilians from Moadamiyeh earlier this month during a rare cease-fire coordinated by a controversial pro-government Catholic nun, Mother Agnes Mariam al-Salib, who has lived in Syria for decades, said two activists.
Efforts to evacuate more civilians this week failed after clashes forced hundreds of women and children who had gathered at a checkpoint on the neighborhood's edge to scatter.
Another Moadamiyeh activist, Wisaam al-Ahmad, said international pressure had allowed chemical weapons inspectors to move freely through the country. He said the same pressure would force the Syrian regime to feed blockaded civilians.
The dire situation in Moadamiyeh is part of the broader humanitarian crisis triggered by Syria's civil war. The conflict, which began with largely peaceful protests in March 2011, escalated into a civil war that has now claimed the lives of more than 100,000.
The fighting has proven relentless, and on Monday Syrian opposition activists and state television said government forces killed a prominent army defector who became a rebel leader.
The British-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights as well as the pro-government Al-Ikhbariya TV said Yasser al-Abboud was killed Monday during fighting in the town of Tafas in the southern province of Daraa.
Al-Abboud was among the first high-ranking Syrian army officials to defect and join the rebels fighting to topple the Assad regime. Al-Abboud once commanded the military council of the Free Syrian Army group and led a rebel brigade in Daraa.
In neighboring Lebanon, rockets fired from Syrian territory landed in the northeastern town Hermel near the border, a Lebanese official said on condition of anonymity in line with regulations. One rocket landed near a Lebanese military base, while the other four crashed in nearby fields. There was no immediate word on casualties.
Syrian rebels have fired dozens of rockets at Hermel and nearby villages in retaliation for the involvement of the Lebanese Shiite group Hezbollah in Syria's civil war. Hezbollah forces have been bolstering regime troops as the Syrian war takes on sectarian hues.

He's known as Z. But never Zzzzz.
Ezekiel "Ziggy" Ansah induces nothing likes yawns from NFL scouts and coaches.
New to football just three years ago, the 6-foot-5, 271-pound defender from the African country of Ghana is an eye-popping curiosity to the pro football world.
"I couldn't wait to see him at the Senior Bowl," NFL Network analyst Mike Mayock said.
Soccer was Ansah's first sports love, basketball claimed him next and football grabbed him last, but only after he twice failed to make Brigham Young University's basketball team.
Just last season, he made his first start, at defensive end, yet now there's speculation he'll go second in the NFL draft, to the Jaguars, or fourth to the Eagles, or sixth to the Browns or ninth to the Jets – or, forget it.
The draftniks don't know when Ansah will be taken, and maybe NFL teams don't either.
He's drawn comparisons to long-armed, supple pass rushers such as Jason Pierre-Paul and Aldon Smith, who were thought raw when the NFL drafted them but as rookies overmatched veteran blockers and engulfed quarterbacks.
Then again, Ansah started only nine games and looked unrefined. He tired quickly. For all his power and speed, he didn't show a super-quick first step.
He's the mysterious, beguiling Z.
Be excited, but be prepared to be patient. "I don't think there is anybody in the NFL that doesn't think he's going to be a good player," said Mayock, who wasn't keen on Ansah's Senior Bowl performances. "But the question is, when? Is it this year, next year or three years from now?''
Skeptics? Ansah welcomes them.
"There's a lot of people who have doubts about me, and that's what I love," he said. "I just want to prove you wrong."

One week ago, after an MRI and then an MRA, two small aneurysms were discovered on my Anterior Communicating Artery, one leaning anteriorly and the other posteriorly. The MRA states that all of the blood flow is running through the A2 segment of the Anterior Cerebral Artery, since I am missing the A1 segment of the Anterior Cerebral Artery and the A2 segment looks fenestrated as well.
In addition, the MRA could not rule out MS or other demylinating diseases, which was the initial reason we requested the MRI, after a complete vision loss in my left eye and since my sister has MS and Lupus.
So, I am in a little bit of shock right now and I am hoping that after the CT Angiogram I will have tomorrow, we will find out that this is all a dream and the other two tests are incorrect. We also hope that when we meet with the neurologist, he will do a spinal tap and rule out MS and all other demylinating diseases.
From what I have read, even small AcoA aneurysms are a high rupture risk, men have a higher rupture risk than women for AcoA aneurysms, AcoA aneurysms rupture at a younger age, and an anterior leaning dome and multiple AcoA aneurysms put me at greater risk as well.
It would be very helpful if:
1.) Anyone can tell me what they think my rupture risk level is.
2.) Anyone who has one or multiple AcoA aneurysm(s) can tell me their experience.
3.) Anyone can tell me what treatment options are best for small AcoA aneurysms and if new, safer, less invasive treatments options exist for this already high risk area for surgery.
4.) Anyone has an aneurysm and MS or another demylinating disease.
5.) If there is a neurologist on this site who can give me their expert opinion.
Thanks so much and my positive thoughts, prayers and best wishes are with all of you!

Tigers Conclude Play at Bobby Nichols Intercollegiate
SEVIERVILLE, Tenn. – The women's golf team concluded play at the Bobby Nichols Intercollegiate hosted by Tennessee Tech. The Tigers shot 356 over the final 18 holes for a two-day total of 711 at the par-71, 5,803 yard, Sevierville Golf Club. The field played under better conditions on Tuesday as the sun broke through the clouds around mid-morning as temperatures reached 61 degrees.
The Tigers finished 12th out of 13, with Eastern Kentucky grabbing the title with a 57-over, 625.
Erica Edwards (88-85=173) led the way for TSU as she registered a birdie on the par-3, 13th, with a 20-foot downhill putt. The freshman notched six pars by using 12 fairways and eight greens.
Kelly Merkel (90-84=174) carded the low score of the day for the Tigers with seven pars on her way to an 84. Merkel found seven fairways and seven greens on Tuesday.
Freshman Natalie Spicer (86-90=176) recorded a birdie on the par-3, 18th, as she drained a 38-foot uphill putt. Sophomore Sarah Needleman (97-97=194) repeated her first day results with eight fairways, three greens and 35 putts for a 97.
Amelia Dap, playing as an individual, got off to a slow start before finishing with pars on four of her last five holes.

INTER Milan midfielder Wesley Sneijder's agent has cooled speculation suggesting his client could leave the San Siro for Anzhi Makhachkala.
The Nerazzurri's performances have improved since the 28-year-old suffered a thigh injury in September, with reports suggesting the Holland international could be persuaded to join his countryman Guus Hiddink at free-spending Dagestan outfit Anzhi after losing his place in Milan.
Rumours of Sneijder's alienation from the Inter first team were lent further weight when it was revealed the club had banned him from communicating with his fans via Twitter.
But today his agent, Soren Lerby, moved to dispel talk of a January switch to Russia, telling calciomercato.com: "Wesley doesn't want to go to Anzhi.
"I feel that these are just rumours and I don't know where they've come from.
"At this point you should probably ask Anzhi and Guus Hiddink about it.
"It's the first time I've heard anything about it because Wes is very happy at Inter and has a great relationship with everyone."
Sneijder, who moved to the San Siro in 2009, was part of Jose Mourinho's treble winning team of 2010, supplying the assist for Diego Milito's first goal in the Champions League final.
The Dutch playmaker signed a five-year contract extension later that year - tying him to the Nerazzurri until 2015 - but since then he has been linked with moves to Manchester United and Manchester City.

Race and related grounds
Under the Code, every person has the right to be free from racial discrimination and harassment in the social areas of employment, services, goods, facilities, housing accommodation, contracts and membership in trade and vocational associations. You should not be treated differently because of your race or other related grounds, such as your ancestry, ethnicity, religion or place of origin.
Canada, its provinces and territories have strong human rights laws and systems in place to address discrimination. At the same time, we also have a legacy of racism – particularly towards Indigenous persons, but to other groups as well including African, Chinese, Japanese, South Asian, Jewish and Muslim Canadians – a legacy that profoundly permeates our systems and structures to this day, affecting the lives of not only racialized persons, but also all people in Canada.
Relevant policies:
June 1996 - Standards for height and weight are sometimes used to screen or evaluate job applicants. In the OHRC's experience, this tends to occur in recruitment for occupations that traditionally have been male dominated. These standards or selection criteria are based on the average physical stature of men in the majority population group. Women and members of racialized groups are, on the average, physically smaller than members of the majority population group. Consequently, these groups tend to be disadvantaged by height and weight criteria. The policy of the OHRC with regard to such recruitment practices is set out below. This policy applies to all height and weight criteria used in the context of employment.
Policy on discrimination and language
June 1996 - This policy statement sets out the OHRC's position on language-based discrimination in the areas of employment, accommodation, services, contracts, and membership in trade unions, trades, occupational associations or self-governing professions. Although the Code does not explicitly identify "language" as a prohibited ground of discrimination, the Human Rights tribunal of Ontario may consider claims under a number of related grounds, such as ancestry, ethnic origin, place of origin and in some circumstances, race. In the Commission's experience, language can be an element of a complaint based on any of these grounds.
Policy and guidelines on racism and racial discriminationJune 2005 - This policy sets out the OHRC's position on racism, racial discrimination and racial harassment, at the time of publication. It replaces the OHRC's 1996 Policy on Racial Slurs and Harassment and Racial Jokes. It deals with issues that fall within the OHRC's jurisdiction and which can form the subject matter of an application to the Tribunal. The policy is therefore bounded by the provisions of the Ontario Human Rights Code and Canada's legal framework for analyzing discrimination. At the same time, the policy interprets the protections in the Code in a broad and purposive manner.
CMARD Booklet: Call for coalition of municipalities against racism and racial discrimination
2006 - The Canadian Commission for UNESCO is inviting municipalities from across Canada to join a Canadian Coalition of Municipalities Against Racism and Discrimination and be part of a larger international coalition being promoted by UNESCO. This booklet provides information that will be useful in understanding some of the important details of this Coalition.
Anti-racism and anti-discrimination for municipalities: Introductory manualMay 2010 - This document is a "how-to" guide. It gives municipalities directions on how they can start or improve anti-racism and anti-discrimination initiatives. This manual focuses on small and medium-size municipalities but any municipality, large or small, should find it useful.
Racial discrimination (brochure)
2012 - The Ontario Human Rights Code (the Code) provides for equal rights and opportunities, and freedom from discrimination. The Code recognizes the dignity and worth of every person in Ontario. It applies to the areas of employment, housing, facilities and services, contracts, and membership in unions, trade or vocational associations. Under the Code, every person has the right to be free from racial discrimination and harassment.
Policy on Removing the "Canadian experience" barrier
July 2013 - While the Ontario Human Rights Commission (OHRC) recognizes the significance of all of the barriers newcomers potentially face when trying to access the job market, this policy will focus on "Canadian experience" as an employment or accreditation requirement, and as a practice that raises human rights concerns. The OHRC's position is that a strict requirement for "Canadian experience" is prima facie discrimination (discrimination on its face) and can only be used in very limited circumstances. The onus will be on employers and regulatory bodies to show that a requirement for prior work experience in Canada is a bona fide requirement, based on the legal test this policy sets out.
Removing the "Canadian experience" barrier – A guide for employers and regulatory bodies
July 2013 - When an employer requires people applying for jobs to have "Canadian experience," or where a regulatory body requires "Canadian experience" before someone can get accredited, they may create barriers for newcomers to Canada. Requiring "Canadian experience" could violate the Ontario Human Rights Code (the Code), which protects people from discrimination based on grounds such as race, ancestry, colour, place of origin and ethnic origin.
de Lottinville and the application of Section 45.1 of Ontario's Human Rights Code
February 25, 2015 - In the past, people who experienced discrimination or harassment by police had to decide whether to file an officer misconduct complaint under the Police Services Act ("PSA") or an application with the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario ("HRTO"). The PSA provides a public complaints process, revised through amendments in 2009 which also established the Office of the Independent Police Review Director ("OIPRD"). If they filed both, there was a real risk that their HRTO application would be dismissed.
Policy statement on Francophones, language and discrimination
This policy statement is based on the Ontario Human Rights Commission's (OHRC) Policy on language and discrimination. The statement explains the relationship between the Ontario Human Rights Code (Code), language-based discrimination and French-language minority rights under other laws.

Yep on "A Charlie Brown Christmas," and all the old claymation stuff, too. QuoteHarold and MaudeOne of my all-time favorites! (Uh, although the Cat Stevens soundtrack makes me want to hurl...) I want to be just like Maude when I'm an old lady.
Harold and Maude
I have a real soft spot for "Love Actually." I'm not sure quite what it is about that one. A clever script for sure, and a generally amazing cast. Bill Nighy sort of steals the show as a pervy, washed-up old rocker who lets it all hang out. Speaking of Nighy, we recently saw him in "Pirate Radio" and he was great in that, too.
I think by "claymation" you mean the original Rudolph, the Red-Nose Reindeer, which is actually stop-motion
Everyone should be a fan of Love, Actually, and Bill Nighy should be a bigger star than Hugh Grant.

Wild Mushroom Filling
Prepare the Savory Tart Dough and Béchamel sauce in advance. Chill the dough for at least one hour. Preheat the oven to 400F.
Heat a large skillet over medium high heat & add the olive oil. Add the mushrooms and onions and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the thyme leaves and continue to cook until almost all the liquid has evaporated and the bottom of the skillet is dry. Add salt & pepper to taste, remove from the heat and set aside.
Roll each disc of dough into circles about 10 inches in diameter. The crust should be about 1/8″ thick. Place 1/3 of the filling in the middle of each circle. Leave a border of about 2 inches around the outside of the crust.
Spoon half of the bechamel sauce over the mushrooms. Top with half of the remaining mushroom mixture and neatly fold the edges of the crust over into loose "pleats." Lightly brush the pleated edges of the dough with the eggwash and sprinkle each tart with 1 Tbsp coarsely grated cheese and 1 tsp coarse salt.
Place the tarts on a lightly oiled baking sheet. Bake for about 20 to 25 minutes or until each galette is golden brown. Remove from the oven, allow to cool slightly and garnish with a sprig of fresh thyme before slicing and serving.
Béchamel sauce
1 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp flour
1 cup milk
1 egg, beaten until frothy
4 oz coarsely grated Swiss cheese, divided
Salt & pepper to taste
Melt the butter over medium low heat in a saucepan. Whisk in the flour until completely incorporated. Continue whisking over medium low while the butter & flour mixture bubbles, about 3 minutes. This is known as a roux (pronounced "roo").
Heat the milk until hot, but not boiling. Pour the hot milk, a little at a time, into the roux while whisking continually. The mixture will quickly begin to thicken. Reduce the heat to low and continue to whisk until the sauce is thickened and smooth. Mix in the grated cheese (reserving 2 Tbsp for later use), bit by bit, until completely incorporated. Season with salt & pepper to taste and remove from the heat.
Whisk a little of the hot sauce (a couple of tablespoons) into the beaten egg to temper it. Then whisk the egg mixture into the sauce and set aside.
Savory Tart Dough
2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp sugar
8 oz unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes and chilled
about 2/3 cup ice water
In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar and salt. Place into a food processor with the chilled butter. Pulse until the butter is evenly distributed but still in pea-sized pieces. Add the ice water all at once to the flour and butter. Pulse again until the dough just comes together into a mass do not overmix. Using your hands, divide the dough evenly in half and mold into slightly flattened disks. Wrap the disks in plastic and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

The Houston Dynamo Academy U-16 team advanced to the quarterfinals of the Dallas Cup on Wednesday with a 2-0 win over Minnesota prep school Shattuck St. Mary's. The Dynamo finished 2-1 in Group D, in a three-way tie for first, but won the group due to a superior goal differential. Houston will face the Group E winner, likely to be Solar SC of Dallas, in a quarterfinal on Friday afternoon.
The U-16s are currently mired in sixth out of nine teams in the Texas Division, beset by injuries and call-ups to the older squad, but they have performed well at the Dallas Cup. A notable exception was in their finishing in their opening game on Monday, when the Dynamo dominated De Anza Force from San Jose, Calif., but lost 1-0 after allowing a goal on De Anza Force's only shot of the game.
Although finishing continued to be a problem in Tuesday's match against Mexican club CFI Guadalajara, the Dynamo pulled out a late win on a goal from Bryan Salazar (Fort Bend Bush) in the 78th minute of an 80-minute match. Houston saved its best performance for last, at least in the group stage, downing Shattuck St. Mary's 2-0 on Wednesday afternoon. Isaiah Noreiga, missing the state tournament run of his high school, Kingwood Park, scored the opener in the 17th minute. Houston sealed the win - and the group title on goal difference - when Hector Ramirez (Pasadena) set up Leo Ayala (Houston Sharpstown), who headed in the second goal.
Dynamo Director of Youth Development James Clarkson praised Manuel Chavez (Cy Springs) as one of the team's top performers through the first three games and was very pleased with Wednesday's win. This is the youngest Dynamo team to participate in the tournament; previously, Houston had sent U-17 and U-19 teams to the Dallas Cup, taking the U-17 title in 2008. The Dynamo South Texas Academy is competing in this year's U-19 group and is 1-0-1 heading into Wednesday night's showdown with favored Dallas Texans Red.

2009 Conference on Empowering E-Consumers: Strengthening Consumer Protection in the Internet Economy, Washington, 8-10 December 2009
In follow-up to the Seoul Ministerial Meeting on the Future of the Internet Economy, the OECD's Committee on Consumer Policy has initiated a review of the 1999 OECD Guidelines for Consumer Protection in the Context of Electronic Commerce to examine their effectiveness in OECD and non-member economies, and explore the opportunities and challenges faced by consumers in today's e-commerce. The Conference will bring together senior government officials from OECD and non-member economies with academics, representatives from the business, civil society and international organisations. The purpose will be to identify gaps in the guidelines and to examine areas where the Guidelines may need to be adapted or revised.

I'm surprised at the negativity, Oh Great Ambassador!
There's a seller on Bricklink that sells official elements in colors that do not officially exist - I have several examples of such. I can imagine several methods of acquiring such elements in quantity, even methods not fully above board. The same way that someone might acquire flame elements, but with slightly more purpose behind the procedure.
Given that such things obviously occur, why can't Lego make the special effort for us?
They obviously have the molds. The molds are used for sets currently or very recently in production. All they have to do is mix the colors and make a few runs for us - they could start small and see how they sell.
I realize you cannot promise anything. But this one seems like a perfectly reasonable request. Autumn colored foliage would really make those MOCs at Lego fan conventions pop. It would create enormous good will among adult fans of the product and be great free publicity at shows.
Everybody wins.
They really should be doing things like this. The same way they do PAB. Bulk foliage in multi-colors. However they want to do it...

New Posters Note: WE HAVE TWO SEPARATE SEARCH WINDOWS IN THIS SITE. If you click on "Search" on this page, you will search this Forum and its connected pages, except for the Eggcorn Database.
The Eggcorn Database has its own separate search window, and you need to go to the database (click above), if you want to search the database. If you want to check whether something already has been submitted, you usually need to search in both places.
I put up a post on the way we here U.S. soldiers and marines say that they find CACHETs of weapons, rather than CAcHEs. Before I put up this post, I searched within this eggcorn site, for CACHET, and the site search thing gave me nuthin. But just now, I looked for CACHET OF WEAPONS on regular Google, and Google sent me back to this eggcorn site.
So, I am sorry to duplicate, and I am not as clever as I thought I was, but what the heck? I do not want to waste you attention with stuff you already have seen. I have plenty more. Am I misunderstanding the purpose of the site search window here at eggcorn? How can I improve?

Yeah, there's a problem with the site search function. I'm not the technical guru, though I know our guru (who's also the site owner/founder) is aware of the problem. The basic catch seems to be that this is now a large site that's gotten various major overhauls, and some parts of the code don't want to play nice with other parts of the code. More specifically, there are certain "islands" in the archived contribution pages, etc., that can be accessed by hand, but not through the search button.
Before I realized this, I used to gently-but-firmly remind people to avoid duplicating things on the contribute pages, but now I just don't worry about it. When I'm searching for something I know was in the Contribute pages, I jump over to the regular Google site to look for it. (Throwing the word "eggcorn" into the mix helps.)
Nevertheless, the Eggcorns Database search button seems to be work fine for bringing up things in the Database proper, so I still remind people about that.
Thanks. I will be careful. You have a fantastic web site. Watch out for over-enthusiastic new joiners.
I'm glad to know someone else has experienced this problem. Prior to my first post, I conducted a nonproductive search, having entered one of the keywords comprising my eggcorn. After posting my eggcorn, the adminstrator suggested that I use the search feature before posting and pointed me to earlier examples of the eggcorn I had posted. Being a sensitive soul, I felt a bit stung but decided it wasn't worth it to go into a long explanation of my unsuccessful attempt to do so. At least now I understand where the problem lies and how to avoid duplications in the future.
This continues to be a problem… We have a lot of new members who dutifully search before posting, only to have their post "shot down" (albeit usually very gently!) by those who know that there are two search engines.
I would suggest two simple stop-gap measures that could prevent this:
1) When one logs on to the main page of the site (before going to either the database or the forum) there is a message from Chris (currently stating that there was an outage) that could be redone to give a couple simple instructions on searching the database first and then the forum before contributing; AND
2) a "stickie," which I have seen on a number of forums (something like "What to do before you post"), could be placed at the top of the forum index and left there for all to access.
This might save newbies from the "sting" mentioned by myword above…

The leader of a small Michigan college has referred to the faces of minorities on his campus as "dark ones" during an appearance before a legislative committee in Lansing.
HILLSDALE, Mich. (AP) ? The leader of a small Michigan college referred to the faces of minorities on his campus as "dark ones" during an appearance Wednesday before a legislative subcommittee in Lansing but later issued an apology.
Hillsdale College President Larry Arnn was speaking against the state's adoption of Common Core standards in reading, writing and math when he described criticism he once received for not having enough "dark" students at the private school, the Detroit Free Press reported.
"The state of Michigan sent a group of people down to my campus, with clipboards ... to look at the colors of people's faces and write down what they saw," Arnn explained. "We don't keep records of that information. What were they looking for besides dark ones?"
Later Wednesday afternoon, Arnn issued an apology.
"No offense was intended by the use of that term except to the offending bureaucrats, and Dr. Arnn is sorry if such offense was honestly taken," the college said in the statement.
Some Democrats told Arnn during the subcommittee meeting that they were offended by his comments.
"You're the president of a college. I would expect better out of you," said Rep. David Knezek, D-Dearborn Heights.
Rep. Tim Greimel of Auburn Hills, leader of the House's Democratic minority, said he was "extremely disappointed" by what he called "Arnn's racist remarks."
"It's shocking that a supposedly educated individual from an institute of higher learning would repeatedly use inflammatory and bigoted rhetoric," Greimel said in a statement.
Hillsdale is a four-year, independent, liberal arts college in Hillsdale County, about 50 miles southwest of Ann Arbor. It has an enrollment of about 1,400 full-time students.
"Hillsdale College was founded in 1844 by abolitionist Free Will Baptists and was the first college in the land to prohibit by charter discrimination based on 'nationality, color or sex,'" the school's statement said.
Hillsdale College said its commitment to equality continues "down to the present day, despite attempts by both federal and state bureaucrats to force it to count its students by race."
The new Common Core standards replace a hodgepodge of educational goals that had varied greatly from state to state. The federal government was not involved in the state-led effort to develop them but has encouraged the project.
While proponents say the new standards will better prepare students, critics worry they'll set a national curriculum for public schools rather than letting states decide what is best for their students.
Efforts to slow down or derail the standards arose this year in Michigan and other states.
Michigan lawmakers have told state education officials not to spend state money on implementing the standards until hearings can be held.

The Kyouei Design house has come up with the fantastically titled, Mobile Light, which incorporates a small solar panel bed at one end and a light at the other. Activation is automatically instigated once the ambient light levels fall below a certain threshold, which ensures the stored energy is put to good use quickly. Sure, it may not output enough of the bright stuff for you to make it down the stairs safely, read a book in bed or take a piss without dribbling all about the floor/toilet rim, but that's what the main lights are for.
The Mobile Light says you are sophisticated, environmentally conscious, as well as being hot on interior design. The only reason you would want to portray these qualities is because your over-styled bachelor pad has seen more lonely nights than you care to remember, and you're hoping a hottie will say, "Gosh, you're stylish, want to have sex?" It's not gonna happen. [Kyouei Design]

On Mother's Day this past weekend, I spent time with my mother and grandmother. We did the usual things people do on this holiday like drink too many mimosas, and a good time was had by all.
I picked out some charms for a bracelet my mom wears — one of which was a glass bead with a breast cancer ribbon painted on it. I joked with my brother that it seemed insensitive to remind my cancer survivor mother of this traumatic event in her life, but my mother instead decided to wear it proudly.

For reference, my mom is probably the unhealthiest healthiest person I've ever known. She's been dealt an unfair hand over health over the years — cancer, included — but you wouldn't know it if you knew her. She's incredibly gracious and proud of her good fortune in other ways, and I think even more proud she's overcome so many obstacles.
My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer in her mid-40s. I was 15 at the time; as the years wore on, my high school memories were not filled with football games, track meets, study sessions and parties, but surgeries, hospital stays, chemotherapy sessions, and the overwhelming fear of losing my mother.
Unfortunately, it wasn't an easy battle — her cancer had spread into her lymph nodes and other parts of her body; but she did everything she could to beat it — and she did. And she did so privately.
For years, my mother told as few people as she could possibly get away with. Deeply personal, she didn't want the unneeded attention or well-wishers or sympathy that often came along with such an illness. She wore a wig in public, hid her surgeries and scars and went to chemotherapy and radiation treatments in private.
She wasn't ashamed of it; she was purely diligent and determined. After doing everything for her three kids over the years, she finally put herself — and her health — first. All of her resources, her time and her remaining energy went into surviving. She found the best doctors; did every kind of treatment that was necessary; rested and followed all orders. She took no shortcuts, and she didn't complain.
I've had some health woes myself over the years, just like anybody else, and I'll be honest: For many, I've acted like a complete child. My mother — who's had dozens of surgeries and problems — handles everything amazingly well. She doesn't feel sorry for herself; she just does what she needs to do.
One example: Just a few months ago, my mother took an entirely awful spill while my family was away on vacation (Read: Disney World is not the happiest place on Earth when you need to hang out in a hospital). Stiches and sprains and bruises and cuts — she looked like a very big and a very mean Mickey Mouse completely beat her up.
When I saw her the next day after a night in the hospital (trust me, she did not look good), I burst into tears. She, on the other hand, was sick of the whole ordeal — a whole night of exams and catscans and other tests—and just wanted to move on and not miss out on Disney's fine collection of rides, which she wasn't even supposed to enjoy.
I could report and write about health care all day long — which, oh yea, I do — but my mother has taught me more about it than anyone else. Of course, it's unfortunate she has all the stories and the experience about it, but she has more lessons and most of all, she has the strength. Like with wearing a breast cancer ribbon, she's no longer private about her cancer history; she's proud to tell people she had it and she beat it.
She's taught me to be proactive about my own health care, to follow my gut instincts, to put health first, and she taught me that a diagnosis isn't the end; it's just something that needs to be dealt first and is really just the first step to surviving. Because that's what she is — a survivor.

Music royalty Prince refuses to speak directly to his employees and insists on only communicating via his manager.
The singer says he only deals with those he trusts the most, so he rarely feels the need to address his team personally.
He tells V Magazine, "This organization is different than most, in the sense that we don't take directions from the outside world. It's like a galaxy. The sun is in the center giving off energy, and everything revolves around it… Nobody really talks to me."
Referring to his manager, Julia Ramadan, Prince adds, "I talk to her. She talks to you… And so on and so forth. If I trust her, then you can trust her."
And Prince ensures anyone wishing to reach him goes through Ramadan by refusing to own a cell phone.
When asked if he has an iPhone, Prince tells the interviewer, "Are you serious? Hell, no," before mimicking a woman's voice, and quipping, "Where is my phone? Can you call my phone? Oh, I can't find it."

Gilles Marini and his wife of 11 years, Carole, are parents to two biological children – but the star told PopEater if they have more, he'd like to adopt.
"I think we adopt," he told the site. "It's kind of easy to make a kid, when you can. To adopt a kid who is not yours and give him the same love, that's pretty awesome."

U.S. & World
Until then, Gilles is a devoted dad to his daughter, Juliana, and son, Georges. With Father's Day around the corner, he spent Thursday bringing Juliana on her first trip to New York City, where the two attended the Pampers' Daddy Play Date Father's Day event at the Metropolitan Pavilion.
The star – who's gone on to roles in TV's "Brothers & Sisters," "Nip/Tuck" and more following his star turn in the first "Sex and the City" film and a run on ABC's "Dancing with the Stars" – added that fame hasn't gotten in the way of his parenting.

"All the fame came so late in my life," the 34-year-old actor told PopEater. "I was way before [that] a father."
