Steroid-sparing treatment would be valuable in giant cell arteritis (GCA) because most patients experience complications of glucocorticoid therapy. Case reports suggest that infliximab might be effective. Hoffman and colleagues randomly assigned 44 patients with GCA in glucocorticoid-induced remission to receive infliximab or placebo at 0, 2, and 6 weeks and every 8 weeks thereafter. Infliximab did not reduce rates of relapse or any secondary end point and is therefore unlikely to be useful in GCA.

Some patients with polymyalgia rheumatica have a chronic relapsing course and require long-term glucocorticoid therapy. A small case series suggested that infliximab could reduce the glucocorticoid dose needed to induce and maintain remission. Salvarani and associates therefore randomly assigned 51 patients with newly diagnosed polymyalgia rheumatica to take placebo or infliximab at weeks 0, 2, 6, 14, and 22. All patients took prednisone in tapering doses. Relapse-free and recurrence-free survival did not differ at 52 weeks.

The apolipoprotein B–apolipoprotein A-I (apo B–apo A-I) ratio is a strong risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. The researchers performed a case–control analysis of persons 45 to 79 years of age. They found that the apo B–apo A-I ratio is no better than conventional measures of risk prediction in distinguishing between people who later developed atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and people who did not.

Retrospective studies suggest that exposure to hepatitis B virus (HBV) may contribute to the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with cirrhosis who have hepatitis C virus (HCV). The investigators prospectively studied 845 patients with chronic HCV infection and evidence of occult HBV infection. Patients with HCV-related cirrhosis and antibody to hepatitis B core antigen (anti-HBc) were at increased risk for HCC. Presence of anti-HBc may indicate increased risk for HCC in patients with HCV-related cirrhosis.

Drug-induced agranulocytosis is a rare but potentially serious adverse event. This systematic review of case reports involved 980 patients who were not receiving chemotherapy but developed possible drug-induced agranulocytosis. One hundred twenty-five drugs definitely or probably caused agranulocytosis. More than half of these cases involved 1 of 11 particular drugs. Fatal complications occurred in 10% of patients with a neutrophil count nadir less than 0.1 × 109 cells/L but only 3% of patients with higher neutrophil counts.

The Hastings Center convened leaders and scholars to define the relationship between the ethical protections for patients participating in quality improvement (QI) activities and the regulations protecting human subjects of research. The panelists asserted that most QI activities are not human subjects research and should not undergo review by an institutional review board (IRB). Instead, they called for appropriately calibrated supervision of QI activities. The group formulated criteria for classifying a project as QI, human subjects research, or both. They propose a customized IRB process for the overlap category.

Hoffman and colleagues and Salvarani and associates added infliximab to corticosteroid therapy for giant cell arteritis and polymyalgia rheumatica, respectively, and found no measurable benefit. However, the studies enrolled a relatively small number of patients and so might have missed a substantial treatment effect. Because infliximab had no measurable benefit, tumor necrosis factor is not a logical target for treatment in these diseases. Corticosteroids remain the cornerstone of therapy.
Ann Intern Med. 2007;146(9):674-676. doi:10.7326/0003-4819-146-9-200705010-00011
Michael Berkwits, MD, MSCE, Deputy Editor; Eliseo Guallar, MD, PhD
van der Steeg and colleagues show that the apolipoprotein B–apolipoprotein A-I ratio does not improve overall prediction of coronary artery disease in a general population. In fact, newer risk factors rarely add much to predictions that use established risk measures, which is why clinicians should require rigorous proof of added value of any new risk factor before recommending widespread testing for it in routine clinical practice.
Ann Intern Med. 2007;146(9):677-679. doi:10.7326/0003-4819-146-9-200705010-00012

Lynn and colleagues report the results of a credible and timely project: an analysis of ethical requirements for QI activities and their relationship to regulations protecting human research subjects. They conclude that the QI activities that qualify as human subjects research and those that overlap with it should be supervised by specially convened institutional review boards. Yet, they have difficulty defining sharp borders between human subjects research and QI, which will pose problems for those who must decide what kind of review each activity requires.

The SMART trial has shown that cycling HIV-infected patients on and off therapy as their CD4+ count rises or falls may further increase morbidity and all-cause mortality. Of note, cardiovascular disease and nonopportunistic cancer rather than opportunistic infections were the main causes of death in patients assigned to take a "drug holiday" when their CD4+ count was high. The study shows that antiretroviral-experienced persons should stay on HIV treatment. It also reminds us to try to prevent common organ diseases and nonopportunistic cancer that may be caused by poorly understood effects of HIV infection.

Police identify man found dead in creek, death still under investigation
A fisherman found the man's decomposed body in a creek near the Kansas River
Kansas City, Kansas Police have released the identification of the man whose body was found decomposing in a creek near the Kansas River.
Police say 34-year-old John G. Simpson's body was found by a fisherman back on August 19.
Lyndon Newman said he noticed the smell first and thought it was a dead animal. He was shocked to find Simpson's body while checking his trout lines.
"We were coming around and that is when I happened to look down," Newman said. "I was like, 'Is that a body?' It was a body that was face down and it looked like it had been there for two or three months or something."
Simpson's cause of death is still undetermined. Police said he was a resident of Olathe, Kan.
KCK Police are asking anyone with information to call the TIPS Hotline at 816-474-TIPS.

Hi, in a post that I've read:
Dropshipping is the Best of all Business
Have you ever used the words "drop ship†or "drop shipper†in a sentence before? These words have both become extremely popular in terms of the online business worlds. Why? There are now thousands of small e-commerce retail websites starting up each day that follow the stockless retail business model. However, Dropshipping is the Best of all Business in their process.
There is a very strong relationship between dropshipping and doing work from home. In dropshipping a retailer can do the work from home if they are running an online business. With the dropshipping method a retailer or a seller can successfully work from home running the online business by opening a website which has all the details and images of the products are that are available.
An online business retailer usually does work from home due to the low overheads and flexible working conditions. By running an online business using the dropshipping supply chain process the online business just needs to concentrate on attracting customers to order goods from the website. As the marketing increases, so too does the number of orders increase due to the growth of customers and profits will rise.
By doing their work from home, the online business retailer has fewer overheads enabling the business to make more profit from the dropshipping business. With the dropshipping process the online business does not require any shop, any workers, any lighting or other major expenses, and they don't even require a warehouse to store the product. The online business can easily manage all the various aspects of the business by fulfilling his/her responsibilities all from a desk .
There are lots of opportunities available with dropshipping, for example with the internet there is now better information on product description and the prices available with just a few clicks, and the latest product updates and availability are all available at wholesaler's online store.
But getting success from dropshipping, you have to look for a company which will give you proper opportunity , Though it is very simple and easy way to make money home, some company will not give you proper opportunity. So you must be careful selecting a company.

In regards to the provider of the information, I don't know them personally, but I know plenty like them. I've left the content of their post as I think some of the points they make are relevant and therefore may be useful for members.
I've edited the contact details from the post as it's simply an advertisement for the persons business.
My advice, I wouldn't pay them a cent to join any program they are offering personally.

Dan Vahdat was fast asleep at the back of a Royal Airforce plane headed for China, when Britain's prime minister Theresa May started walking up the aisle towards him.
When she was about six feet away and chatting to a group of passengers nearby, the entrepreneur woke up with a start.
"I thought, I better get ready," he remembers.
Vahdat, who is CEO of British medtech startup Medopad, was part of a 50-strong trade delegation accompanying May to Beijing and Shanghai last week.
For the politicians it was a way to build stronger ties outside Europe in preparation for Brexit. For Vahdat it pinned down partnerships with some of China's biggest companies, paving the way for clinical trials that could make his software better at predicting ill health.
It also meant getting a selfie just in time with the Prime Minister:
Vahdat's company, founded in 2011, makes software that doctors and nurses use to track the vital signs of patients they're treating for cancer or chronic diseases.
The app can collect metrics like heart rate data from a Fitbit, or blood-sugar levels from a glucose monitor.
It's crossed over into general health monitoring by insurance companies like China's Ping An, and Volkswagen plans to use Medopad to monitor the health of more than 100 of its truck drivers.
The startup recently closed the first part of a $120 million financing round, getting $28 million from a group of investors led by China's NWS Holdings.
Like competitors uMotif in London or New York's LifeOnKey, Medopad's secret sauce is in predictive analytics.
That is, algorithms that can draw inferences from a patient's metrics to suggest a diagnosis to a doctor.
One way to make those algorithms smarter, Vahdat recently realized, was going to China and collecting health data on large swathes of the country's population.
"We started going there nearly four years ago," he says. "We wanted to get there simply because of the scale of numbers. If you have scale you have access to an asset that nobody has."
Data analytics is fundamental to machine learning, and a larger data set can lead to smarter predictive capabilities, says Vahdat. "It gives you an edge against other companies in terms of the predictions you can do."
Hence Medopad is now working on two large medical studies in China.
Vahdat won't discuss details of the first study with Chinese Internet giant Tencent, though he mentions that Medopad can get access to "1 billion users" through its popular messaging app WeChat.
The second is with the Capital Medical University's Geriatric Center in Beijing, where Medopad will track the walking gaits of patients with Parkinsons. That partnership gives the startup access to up to 1 million patients, says Vahdat.
Medopad has partnerships outside of China too, with institutions like the NHS in the UK and a more recent deal to develop predictive software for doctors with John Hopkins University.
But the sheer scale of people grouped together under institutions like hospitals, or chat apps in China is unprescendented.
"Depending what kind of studies we want to run we can target 10,000 or 100,000 [people]," Vahdat adds. "I don't think anyone can access 100,000 outside of China."

Determination of Arsenic and Health Risk Assessment in the Ground Water of Sindh, Pakistan
As (Arsenic) is one of the lethal element present at the various locations of the world, putting human beings in danger by polluting the water. Arsenic Kit and atomic absorption spectrometer were used to determine As in ground water of Sindh province, Pakistan. Twenty-Four (24) districts both on the left and right bank of RI (River Indus) were analyzed. It was observed from the results that highest As concentration
200 ppb (parts per billion) i.e. above the WHO (World Health Organization) limit (10 ppb) was observed in Sakrand, district Shaheed Benazirabad followed by Hala, Matairi, TMK (Tando Mohammad Khan) and Nasarpur regions. It was further found that ground water of regions on the left bank of RIwas more contaminated than the right bank. Contour map was created using OriginPro and coordinate systems to highlight the elevated arsenic in the studied area. HRA (Health Risk Assessment) of these areas was carried out to calculate EDI (Estimated Daily Intake), TQH (Target Hazard Quotient) and CR (Cancer Risk). 45% of the total ground water samples analyzed were above the permissible limit for As in water and mostly these are located on the left bank of RI. The local wells in Sindh have never been tested for metal concentration former to use. These results provide baselines for researchers, NGO's (Non-Governmental Organizations) and government to apply
arsenic treatment technologies in those areas.

Some Christmas carols are so old it is hard to tell which is older — the lyrics or the tune. Below is a carol thought to be one of the oldest Christmas tunes ever. Few today know it well and it is presented here as something new and fresh to Christmas music fans. 500 years ago tunes were performed publicly only occasionally and, of course, there was no radio or television to play things over and over. Songs then were re-purposed for a variety of uses. The song What Child is This? is perhaps the most well known Christmas songRead more

Andrew Carnegie's Fortune Goes to Honor Those Who Risk Their Lives to Save Others
No heroes left in America? Listen: Ethel Kline, 63, was at her post as a school crossing guard when she saw an out-of-control car heading for two small girls. Kline, a West Allis, Wis. widow, lunged for the children, knocked them out of the way and suffered a crushed pelvis when the speeding automobile struck her instead. "I'd do it again," she says shyly.
Canadian pilots Brian Clegg and Robert Stephen Grant rescued three people from an Ontario lake in a snowstorm. Grant, 38, pinned one of the victims to the skids of a helicopter with his own body and the two of them clung there while Clegg, 24, flew to a nearby hospital. "We just did what had to be done," Clegg recalls.
Davis Palmer, 63, an unemployed Bradys Bend, Pa. laborer, spent three hours up to his neck in a rain-swollen creek rescuing an elderly woman and her daughter-in-law from their submerged auto. "I was just thinking of that poor old lady on top of the car," Palmer says.
Besides their courage—and becoming modesty—these four souls have something else in common: They and nine others were recently honored by the Carnegie Hero Fund, a little-known, Pittsburgh-based foundation. Established in 1904 by billionaire philanthropist Andrew Carnegie, the fund has quietly given 6,487 men, women and even children medals and cash awards—ranging from $1,500 to $5,000—for risking their lives to save others. "We'll always have heroes," says Robert W. Off, president of the Carnegie Hero Fund Commission. "There's a feeling that people don't care about anybody today, but I don't believe that. There have been cases where people stood around and did nothing, but no more now than ever. When it comes to life and death, our standards haven't changed."
Neither have those of the 12-member Carnegie executive board in defining a hero. Last year the fund's three staff investigators traveled 53,000 miles to check out the most promising of some 600 candidates. The board accepted only 69. "The word hero is misunderstood," says Off. "A real hero is someone who puts his life on the line to save somebody else—no matter how foolhardy it may be." Trying to save property—or even, astonishingly, trying to save a woman from being raped, unless she is in danger of death—does not count. Members of a victim's family are ineligible for awards, as are lifeguards, police and firemen unless they perform above and beyond the call of duty. If an honoree dies in the course of a rescue, his or her survivors are eligible for pensions and scholarships from the fund.
Its honorees have saved people from such exotic dangers as stampeding cattle, sharks, cougars, snipers, nuclear reactors and even the intake duct of a jet engine. "Heroism is an impulsive act," Off explains. "The hero doesn't stop to figure the chances of his own survival." Many of the honorees are teenagers. "They're idealistic and impulsive," Off says. "They also don't have the responsibilities of an adult." Although 95 percent of the medalists have been male, Off thinks the proportion may change as women move into more hazardous jobs. Most heroes, according to Off, "lead pretty decent lives. They're clean-cut and upright citizens." One honoree, however, was a convicted armed robber who saved a prison guard from a crazed police dog. The man was later paroled; the guard, among others, recommended it. Carnegie heroes come in all sizes and types, Off reports. "There's no way I know of to test yourself in advance about your likelihood to commit a heroic act."
Off himself qualifies as a kind of hero. In World War II he received the Distinguished Flying Cross for continuing a mission over Germany after three of his bomber's four engines were shot out. Ironically, such action would never qualify for an award. Lifelong pacifist Carnegie called war "barbarism" and prohibited members of the armed forces from winning.
Off (the name is Scottish) spent 33 years at the Mellon Bank in Pittsburgh before leaving in 1979 to take a 10 percent salary cut at the foundation. "I wanted to do something else before I died," he says. At the fund, Off's banking experience has been valuable: His management of the $13 million endowment (nearly three times Carnegie's original grant) has been so successful that the cash awards were increased 33 percent last year. Off runs his own substantial investments from an office in the 12-room house where he lives with his wife, Mary. Their three children are grown. He keeps his 6'4½" frame at 220 pounds by jogging and playing golf (and sailing near a family summer home on Cape Cod). He has never had to perform a rescue, "which is just as well. Sometimes," Off says, "I can't believe the things people have done."

State Department On Damage Control After Leaks
GUY RAZ, Host:
From NPR News, this is ALL THINGS CONSIDERED. I'm Guy Raz.
ROBERT SIEGEL, Host:
It is a diplomatic nightmare. The website WikiLeaks began releasing a quarter of a million confidential cables yesterday, cables written by U.S. officials at embassies and consulates around the world.
RAZ: The release includes a number of frank and potentially damaging assessments of world leaders. Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi is feckless, vain and ineffective.
SIEGEL: Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, as Robin to Vladimir Putin's Batman.
RAZ: And French President Nicolas Sarkozy, an emperor with no clothes.
SIEGEL: But, first, NPR's Michele Kelemen reports on the State Department's efforts today at damage control.
MICHELE KELEMEN: Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was sounding furious today that private diplomatic conversations so crucial to her work are now in the public domain. She called the disclosure by WikiLeaks an attack not just on America's foreign policy interests, but on U.S. alliances and partnerships.
HILLARY CLINTON: There is nothing laudable about endangering innocent people. And there is nothing brave about sabotaging the peaceful relations between nations on which our common security depends.
KELEMEN: Clinton says she's determined to limit the diplomatic fallout. Even before the document dump she was working the phones.
CLINTON: I am confident that the partnership that the Obama administration has worked so hard to build will withstand this challenge.
KELEMEN: An early test came today when she met Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu. In one leaked cable from the U.S. embassy in Turkey, Davutoglu is described as having neo-Ottoman ambitions, a reference to the old Ottoman Empire and leading a more activist foreign policy that is a mixed bag for the U.S. Davutoglu and Secretary Clinton talked in private about this, but in public avoided questions.
CLINTON: Turkey and the United States have one of the most important bilateral relationships in the world.
AHMET DAVUTOGLU: Our Turkish foreign policy is in principle, visionary, time-tested, transparent foreign policy, including our relations with the U.S.
KELEMEN: Many governments were doing their best to downplay the potential damage of these revelations. Germany's finance minister, who was described as a neurotic, angry old man in one dispatch, said he had no intention of even reading the documents. He says he never read the East German secret police files about him either. And Clinton says she thinks her outreach is going well.
CLINTON: In my conversations, at least one of my counterparts said to me, well, don't worry about it, you should see what we say about you.
CLINTON: So I think that this is well understood in the diplomatic community as part of the give and take.
KELEMEN: She can expect a lot more give and take about WikiLeaks as she sets off on her latest trip to Central Asia and to Bahrain, where she'll be meeting officials from many gulf Arab states. Some of them were quoted in cables as making some quite undiplomatic comments about Iran. Secretary Clinton says that shouldn't have been a surprise.
CLINTON: The comments that are being reported on, allegedly from the cables, confirm the fact that Iran poses a very serious threat in the eyes of many of her neighbors and a serious concern far beyond her region.
KELEMEN: Having such comments public could make diplomacy with Iran all the more difficult. Clinton is trying now to figure out ways to safeguard diplomatic cables while Attorney General Eric Holder is overseeing an investigation.
ERIC HOLDER: We have an active, ongoing criminal investigation with regard to this matter.

FORT WAYNE, Ind. – Indiana Michigan Power (I&M), an American Electric Power (NYSE: AEP) company, is asking the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission to approve I&M's Building the Future proposal.
This is the first time since 2011, and only the third time in the past 25 years, that I&M has asked for a review of its base rates in Indiana.
The Building the Future plan calls for investments to enhance customer reliability and service by reducing outages, as well as changes to facilitate the ongoing transition to a more diversified fleet of energy generation resources.
Building the Future would help diminish I&M's No. 1 source of customer outages – trees and other vegetation – by accelerating trimming and clearing near power lines. I&M plans to establish a systematic, four-year trimming cycle consistent with accepted industry guidelines to keep trees away from lines, a major step in addressing outages.
The Building the Future plan includes systematically updating I&M's aging energy delivery system, using stronger poles and wires as well as expanded technology to make the system more resilient to weather events and reduce the impact of weather-related outages. In 2018 alone, I&M expects to replace an estimated 1,400 poles, more than 20 miles of overhead lines and more than 12 miles of underground lines in the Indiana service territory.
"I&M's plan prepares the company for a future of energy generation that is more diverse and will allow us to offer our customers new, cleaner energy options. The plan will improve customers' service through investments in infrastructure that will reduce outages and directly limit service interruptions caused by severe weather," said Toby Thomas, President and Chief Operating Officer of I&M. "We intend to better serve our communities by renovating aging equipment, modernizing the delivery system with new technology and improving the reliability of service while being mindful of the cost impacts on our customers."
I&M seeks to keep its rates at levels that are reasonable and compare favorably to other utilities. Under I&M's plan, new rates would be phased-in over two steps, with the first occurring in summer 2018 and the full rate in place in early 2019. After it takes full effect, the increase would be less than $1 a day for a residential customer using 1,000 kilowatt hours of electricity per month. The overall increase would be about $263 million, or 19.7 percent.
Much has changed since I&M filed its last rate case six years ago. I&M is Building the Future by updating several financial factors to more accurately reflect today's costs:
• As the nation moves more rapidly toward renewables, I&M is Building the Future by transitioning toward more diverse sources of energy, with less reliance on coal-based generation. I&M proposes to help facilitate that transition by adjusting the depreciation of Unit 1 of its Rockport plant to prepare for its eventual retirement. The sooner depreciation costs are adjusted, the less impact on customers.
• I&M plans to offer a new renewable energy program in which customers can choose to attribute a specified percentage of their energy use – from 10 percent to 100 percent – to solar and wind energy. I&M will continue offering a number of energy efficiency options that help our residential and commercial customers reduce their energy use.
• I&M's fixed charge for residential customers is $7.30, the lowest among Indiana's investor-owned electric utilities. I&M is proposing an increase in this service charge to $18 to more fairly and accurately reflect the true costs for a customer to use the system.
• Advances in technology increasingly allow customers to better measure and control their electric use with smart meters. These meters also can help identify the precise location of outages much faster. I&M proposes to adjust the timing of the retirement of the existing, older metering technology to prepare for the future deployment of new, more customer-focused metering technology.
• As part of I&M's ongoing commitment to enhance our interactions with customers, I&M proposes to eliminate the fee for charging a bill payment on a credit card. Customers are also encouraged to sign up for electronic billing and payment options at www.IndianaMichiganPower.com/account. Customers can learn more about Building the Future and the regulatory rate review process at www.IndianaMichiganPower.com/BuildingTheFutureIndiana.

More than half of its generation is emission-free, including 2,160 MW of nuclear generation in Michigan, 450 MW of purchased wind generation from Indiana, 22 MW of hydro generation in both states and approximately 15 MW of large-scale solar generation in both states. The company's generation portfolio also includes 2,600 MW of coal-fueled generation in Indiana.
American Electric Power is one of the largest electric utilities in the United States, delivering electricity and custom energy solutions to nearly 5.4 million customers in 11 states. AEP owns the nation's largest electricity transmission system, a more than 40,000-mile network that includes more 765-kilovolt extra-high voltage transmission lines than all other U.S. transmission systems combined. AEP also operates 224,000 miles of distribution lines. AEP ranks among the nation's largest generators of electricity, owning approximately 26,000 megawatts of generating capacity in the U.S. AEP supplies 3,200 megawatts of renewable energy to customers.

PROTESTER/RED DEATH/SHOCK LIVE REPORTS (05/31 @La Scène Michelet, Nantes, France; 06/01 @VOID//BDX, Bordeaux, France)
I'm not used to write such things. I pretty much hate reading live reports on French webzines especially when they deal with hardcore/punk bands or shows because columnists always write bullshit like those you can read on "real" rock & roll magazines, and I've never red live reports written in English. The most important thing I want you to know even if I guess you've already red the new on Facebook: after the Barcelona gig, PROTESTER and RED DEATH's tour bus has been robbed. This really sucks, passports and personal effets had been stolen and the bands had to stay one more night in Barcelona to fix things as much as they can. Thanks to MINDSET's post on Facebook and people's from all around the world donations they could replace almost everything that has been stolen and keep touring Europe.

I've been waiting and waiting and waiting and finally, all five of the Echino bolts I ordered have arrived. It takes 8 weeks for an order to arrive from Japan, and four bolts arrived about a month ago. The fifth bolt was backordered. But now it's here. I am trying to decide what to sew with it.
I think some quick change baby pants from Anna Maria Horner's book might happen. I also have a quick idea for showcasing one of the prints. I can't sew too much since most of it is in the shop!
Here are the prints I have –
I'm working on getting it listed in the shop. It will be available for $17.95 per yard. Let me know if you need some!

Creamy yellow Gorgonzola, abundantly veined with a blue green mold, can also be produced as an unaged paler, creamier version. Traditionally the cheese is made with raw cow's milk and even sheep's milk cheese varieties are available today.
It's been made outside Milano since the eighth century, when it was hung in huge caves to ripen. Nobody knows when the Penicillin glaucum mold first began colonizing the cheese, but nowadays it's an integral part of the Gorgonzola and the cheese would simply not be the same without it.
Whilst many cheese makers around the world have attempted to imitate the mold, nobody has managed to achieve the same balance that exists in the mold found in the ripening caves outside Milano. One wonders why …..
For the history more information about gnocchi pasta, read our article how to make gnocchi.
Gorgonzola Gnocchi Sauce Recipe
- 1 kg floury potatoes
- 330 g Flour
- 250 g Gorgonzola cheese
- 65 g walnuts broken
- 30 g Butter
- 3 tbsp double cream
- 1 egg lightly beaten
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Preheat the oven to 180 C.
- Put the unpeeled potatoes in a large saucepan, cover with salted water and bring to the boil.
- Simmer briskly for 15-20 minutes until tender, drain and then peel and cut in quarters.
- Place on a baking sheet and put it in the oven to dry for about 5 minutes
- Pass the potatoes through a coarse sieve set over a large bowl – it work's better than a ricer.
- Quickly stir in the flour and egg and then season with salt. When well blended, cover with a clean tea towel to retain the warmth.
- Take a little of the potato mixture and roll into a long thin sausage.
- Slice into pieces about 2.5cm long and using a gnocchi paddle or a fork, roll the gnocchi with your thumb and then roll it the other way to make ridges on the side.
- Continue until you have used up all the potato mixture. Place the prepared gnocchi on well-floured trays as you work.
- In the mean time, bring a large pot of salted water to the boil.
- Drop in the gnocchi in batches.
- Simmer briskly for about 5 minutes until they rise to the surface.
- Drain gently using a wire scoop, and transfer to a warm serving dish.
- While the gnocchi are cooking, melt the gorgonzola and butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat.
- When completely melted add the cream and boil for 1 minute.
- Add the cheese mixture to the gnocchi and gently stir to mix.
- Sprinkle with broken walnuts and serve immediately.

Hard Core Logo is the punk performance piece that keeps on giving. First there was Michael Turner's 1993 "novel-in-verse," at once a fictionalized account of his own time in the Hard Rock Miners and a quasi-documentary archive of Vancouver's not-so-secret punk history. Generically, the book was as effective a détournement of artistic forms (including Situationist-inspired collage) as frontman Joe Dick's convincing of his bandmates to go acoustic for their reunion tour was colossally misguided. Then came Bruce McDonald's 1996 film treatment, itself an inspired mash-up of styles, including the mockumentary, the road movie, and the buddy flick. A year later, Nick Craine's graphic novel, Hard Core Logo: Portrait of a Thousand Punks, mixed elements from Turner's novel and McDonald's film to create a new, hybrid verbal-visual version of the story. And now, hot on the heels of McDonald's movie sequel (which apparently focuses on a female punk rocker haunted by Joe's ghost and visited in the flesh by Bucky Haight), we have Hard Core Logo: LIVE. This theatrical adaptation is currently playing at the Rickshaw Theatre on East Hastings as part of the PuSh Festival, in a co-production with local companies November Theatre (of Black Rider fame) and Touchstone Theatre, and the Edmonton-based Theatre Network.
The concert scenes were the best part of McDonald's film, complete with body slamming, copious on-stage drinking and exchanges of body fluids and, in the case of the band's climactic meltdown in Edmonton, a full-on slap down between Joe and lead guitarist Billy Tallent to off-his-meds John Oxenberger's spoken word refrain of "In the end there's love." So it makes sense, in a live stage version, to focus on the band's gigs, and to incorporate the venue and the audience into the action as much as possible. To this end, the Rickshaw's grungy, past-its-prime look feels wholly appropriate, and while I shivered the whole way through the performance, even the lack of heat seemed authentic. Additionally, creator Michael Scholar, Jr., who plays Joe, commissioned original music from DOA's Joe "Shithead" Keithley to accompany Turner's lyrics. I understand that much of that music was prerecorded; however, it is loud, Toby Berner's Pipefitter is certainly playing the drums, everyone in the band is in fine vocal form, and if most in the audience tended to respect the fourth wall of theatre instead of the open window of the punk concert hall, they nevertheless showed their enthusiastic appreciation after each song.
What was surprising to me was just how many of the non-musical vignettes from the book and the film the creators of this stage version retained. Long, expository scenes link the musical numbers, in which the bandmates talk directly to the audience (as they do to McDonald's camera in the film) and John (a wonderful Clinton Carew) reads, as per Turner's book, from his journal. Indeed, I would go so far to say that Hard Core Logo: LIVE is perhaps too faithful to its source texts. It's almost as if Scholar did not want to have to take sides, incorporating the set pieces from McDonald's film (including not just all of the van scenes, but the toy claymation truck and rolling blacktop pavement as well) alongside stuff from the book that the film left out (Act 2 even opens with an acoustic version of "Big Bush Party after School"). It makes for a very long evening, and while the piece certainly works as an homage, I'm not sure it yet stands on its own as something new—and newly responsive to its theatrical context. While Rachael Johnston (fantastic in a number of roles) nails Bucky Haight's accent and faded Brit-punk ennui, the acid trip scene inevitably ends up looking like a cheap imitation of the one in the film, and precisely because it attempts to mirror the celluloid version too closely. And I don't think the film's ending works for the stage, especially if Joe then rises from the dead—or to heaven, depending on how you read the scene—for one more number, in this case a spirited version of "That's Life" arranged by Keithley. That said, one of the major coups of this piece is Jamie Nesbitt's superb projection design. And the opening anthropological film by Jason Margolis, "A Punkerland Who's Who," is hilarious, and a nice nod to Turner's own academic training in ethnography.
One final thing that could have been foregrounded a little better, I thought, was the performance of punk masculinity that is such a big part of this work. The film, famously, pivots on a hoax that Joe—to his, and the band's, eventual destruction—insists on perpetuating. It concerns the ostensible reason for the band's reunion, i.e., that Bucky has supposedly been shot. However, I have argued elsewhere that another hoax at play in the book and film is that of the "non-performative performance" of heteronormative masculinity, which insists that real feeling between men must be hidden under layers of bluff swagger and sublimated within a theatrical masquerade of (in this case) subcultural identity. In other words, one of punk's many performative operations (in addition to anti-establishment and class dis-affiliations) is that it continues to let boys be boys, retaining and expressing, for example, a polymorphous affection for one another in ways that the "real world" of grown-up men (where any kind of emotion and labour must be channeled in more productive directions) simply will not allow. Hard Core Logo, the film, makes it abundantly clear that for Joe the band is his way of holding on not just to Billy, but to a masculine persona that he simply cannot bring himself to retire. Maybe it was because I didn't feel the right sparks between Scholar's Joe and Telly James's somewhat passive Billy, but last night—in a setting where the theatricality of gender should be front and centre (as in, for example, Johnston's cross-dressing)—it seemed to me that dominant masculinity remained a fairly stable default referent.
Hard Core Logo: LIVE continues at the Rickshaw to February 6th.

Can a dog learn 100 words? Probably not, but your child will learn as you read this fast-paced book written by Michael Frith and illustrated by P.D. Eastman. "I'll teach my dog 100 words," the narrator begins as he lazily sits under a tree with his pooch. The result is a mad-cap romp that gets the whole town involved as the narrator teaches his dog the new words. At the end you might be tired, but so is the narrator who decides to teach his dog those 100 words "next year."
Tie-in Activity: For a fun bedtime word game, draw a large paw print on each of several sticky notes (however many you wish). Write the name of a different object in your house (bathtub, dresser, toothbrush, book, bed) inside each print. Place the prints on the appropriate things, and then have your child follow the "trail" to his room—where he'll read this bedtime story.

3. Andrew Dempsey
4. Henry S. Willard
5. George Steece
6. Henry Blake
7. Joseph W. Dempsey
8. Washington Irwin

17. D.T. Woodrow
18. John Ellison
19. James Rodgers
20. Hiram Campbell
22. William H. Kelly
23. John Culbertson
24. John Peters
While John Campbell is typically credited as being the founder of Ironton, it was actually William D. Kelly who purchased all of the land needed and created the map that laid out the town. He was also the grandson of Luke Kelly, one of the pioneer settlers in Lawrence County.
Deaths of Furnace Men 1849-1860
Robert B. Hamilton, owner of Center Furnace, and a relative of Robert Hamilton of Pine Grove, died in October 1858 and, in noticing his death, the Ironton Register called attention to the unusual mortality among the furnace men of the vicinity within the preceding decade. In January 1849, occurred the death of Samuel Seaton of Green upsburg builder and proprietor of the New Hampshire Furnace, and in the later part of the year John T Woodrow passed away who had been owner of the Raccoon Furnace and was then manager of the Ohio Furnace. In 1850 the mortality included Andrew Dempsey of the Etna Furnace, Henry S Willard of Buckhorn, George Steece of Mount Vernon, and John Patton of Pennsylvania in 1851. Henry Blake of Hecla, 1852; John W Dempsey of Vesuvius, 1854; James W Means, brother of Thomas W. of the Lawrence, Ironton, 1855; James Richey of Ironton, former proprietor of Centre and various furnaces in Jackson County, and James O Willard of Buckhorn Furnace; 1856 Robert Hamilton of Pine Grove Furnace and Archibald Paull of Wheeling, one of the builders of the Bellefonte Furnace and for many years proprietor of the Amanda; 1857, LD Hollister of the Raccoon Furnace, who died at Covington Kentucky, and, in 1858, besides Robert B. Hamilton, John E. Clark of the Lawrence Furnace, and John Culver of Catlettsburg, a builder of the Amanda Furnace.
Dissolution of the Ohio Iron & Coal Company
Within the same period of time of the twenty four members who organized the Ohio Iron and Coal Company, which had founded Ironton in 1849, the following eleven had died: Andrew Dempsey, Henry S Willard, George Steece, Henry Blake, Joseph W. Dempsey, Washington Irwin, James W Means, James A Richey, James O Willard, John E Clark, and Robert B. Hamilton. Two had disposed of their stock by October 1858: Smith Ashcraft and HC Rodgers, which left in the company as original members, John Campbell, William Ellison, DT Woodrow, John Ellison, James Rodgers, Hiram Campbell, William D Kelly, John Culbertson, John Peters, Dr C Briggs, and William H Kelly. In 1859, the year after that record was made, the property of the company was sold with the exception of the river wharf which came into possession of the Town of Ironton. [Note: not totally accurate. There was leftover Ohio Iron and Coal property until Oakley Collins resurrected the Company and made himself President to acquire all the property for a $35 filing fee.
