Orthodontics: Clinical Audit: The Importance of Early Detection and Referral of Impacted Maxillary Canines
CPD: 0:24 (closed) Self assess
Feedback: 2 comments, 0 ratings
Abstract: A retrospective clinical audit was conducted to analyse referrals for impacted maxillary canines received by the Orthodontic Department of Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Kings Lynn. The primary aim of the audit was to determine if patients with impacted maxillary canines were referred at the appropriate age of 12 or under, as required by the Royal College of Surgeons of England guidelines and, secondly, to determine if appropriate radiographs were taken in patients aged 10 and over, as recommended by British Orthodontic Society Radiography guidelines. The results indicate that there is a significant shortfall in meeting the 100% standards set for both clinical guidelines.
Clinical relevance: This article highlights the importance of timely referral of suspected impacted maxillary canines and explores the potential consequences to both patient and practitioner of failing to refer patients by the appropriate age.
Author notes: Oluwatoyin Aiyegbusi, BDS, MFDS RCS(Glasg), DCT2 Oral Maxillofacial Surgery, Restorative and Special Care Dentistry at Royal Preston Hospital, (email: firstname.lastname@example.com) and Sukbir Nandra, BDS MFDS RCS(Eng), DCT2 Restorative and Paediatric Dentistry, Bristol Dental Hospital, UK.
Objective: To understand clinical and radiographic signs associated with impacted maxillary canines and thereby know when to refer patients for specialist orthodontic opinion.

Pot Robertson's New Position On Weed
SOURCE: When 600 is just not enough
Why is 600 even relevant? I also question the source of his "revelation" on Dope. Could this be it takes one to know one deal?
Perhaps he is cultivating on communal property?
Is our vision out of focus or is he out to focus?Could there be a capitalistic profit motive here?
Red SquareDear People's Comrade - I took the liberty of fixing the layout of your image so that it fits into 600 pixels. It wasn't hard; it just takes extra time...Thanks, My first thought was,"damn, I'm good", then I realized it wasn't me. I had tunnel vision (or is that panoramic vision).

Fiscal prudence urgently needed in coming years
Fiscal prudence urgently needed in coming years
Investments considered as more boomers retire
BY JAMES BURGER, Californian staff writer
e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com | Saturday, Jan 27 2007 10:55 PM

Paying for retiree health care used to be easy for the county of Kern.
The county paid a little. The employee paid a little. The money was invested. That was enough.
Now it's not.
"Historically we have been able to fund this just fine," said County Administrative Officer Ron Errea.
But he said the cost of health care has climbed dramatically in recent years and a substantial chunk of county employees, many from the baby boom generation, are rushing to retire in the next few years. Paying for all that takes taxpayer dollars.
Now new rules from the Governmental Accounting Standards Board are forcing governments across the nation to tell the public how much those retirements are going to cost them.
Kern County hasn't finished crunching the numbers yet. An actuarial report is expected to be released in February.
It seems likely that there will be a lot of red ink in that report.
The county won't have to pay up immediately. In fact, there is no legal requirement that it set aside money now to pay for future retirement costs.
But to avoid bad credit and weaker bonding muscles, the county is looking for the best way to invest enough moneyeach year -- over 30 years -- to pay for estimated cost of retiree health care.
"It's a serious problem. It's constantly coming to the forefront," said Supervisor Ray Watson. "We are amortizing our liability. We smooth that by paying off that deficiency over 30 years."
In June 2005, actuaries estimated the county's retiree health care account was short by around $78 million.
This year the county will contribute $1.7 million to that account. Next fiscal year the amount the county contributes is proposed to more than double to $3.9 million in an effort to catch up with its looming debt.
County employees currently contribute eight-tenths of one percent of their base pay toward their retirement health benefits.
Next year the county wants to bump that to 1.85 percent, according to county officials. County unions would have to agree to that.
Errea said fiscal prudence demands that the county look for a way to fund the rising cost of health benefits.
If it doesn't deal with it, county officials say, its official debt level could burgeon and its bonding capacity could suffer.
But the county won't be able to establish concrete solutions until it has updated actuarial numbers.
Right now, the only plan is to pour more money from taxpayers and county employees into the retirement investment fund, they said.
Watson said the county and its unions need to talk about a way to provide health benefits to retirees without breaking the county's bank.
That may mean the county funds a lower level of defined benefits and have employees pay more in contributions to buy increased coverage, he said.
Chuck Waide, spokesman for the Central California Association of Public Employees, said the union is watching closely to see what the impact might be to county employees the union represents.
"All of us recognize that the cost of health insurance has skyrocketed," Waide said.
He said the hope is that employee's increasing contributions to their post-employment health care will control the costs.
"Our members are feeling it because (the contribution) keeps going up," he said.
But Waide said the issue isn't just about how Kern County deals with rising retirement costs.
The rising cost of health care, and retiree health costs, are national problems, he said, and they need a national solution.
Unfortunately, Waide said, nobody has come up with one yet.

Ways to Make A Few Extra Bucks Online...Legitimately
by aunice1
Sites like Cashcrate, InboxDollars and Mturk provide ways to make money online from home.
Earn Money Online Doing Small Tasks From Home
What's Crowdsourcing Anyway?
Everybody's trying to make extra money these days and crowdsourcing is the wave. Some of us are doing two and three jobs just to get by and make ends meet. Here are a few resources that won't make you wealthy, but could put a few additional bucks in your pocket. In other words, you could pay a bill or two or add to your entertainment fund.
Crowdsourcing refers to a way in which people hire others to do small online tasks for them: article writing, data entry, transcription, surveys, read-aloud recordings and so on. Each task typically takes a few minutes to complete and pay-outs are usually made to Paypal or by check. For some tasks, you'll need to complete a qualifications test, while others you'll just complete the task. I find doing short tasks fun and a way for me to get a break from the comprehensive writing projects I do on a daily basis. Some people play online games, I short-task. Go figure!
Things to Know
A few of these sites like Cashcrate and InboxDollars have offers which will pay you to opt-in to receive free newsletters and what-not. Do yourself a favor and create a separate email box for these sites because you will get a whole lot of mail. These sites also have certain types of offers that you'll need to pay for, so be careful. I don't do anything that requires my credit card info. I only complete free offers of which there are plenty. Other sites are completely task-oriented like Amazon's Mechanical Turk (Mturk). Besides earning by completing tasks and offers, you can increase the amount you earn by referrals. The following are legitimate companies that do pay.
Cashcrate is a fun little site where you can make some extra cash just for watching commercials, reading email, completing offers, signing up for newsletters and surveys. Like I mentioned before, you'll get lots of mail. Be certain that you use real information or you won't get credited and only one account per household is allowed. One of the things I like about this site is that it lets you know which of the offers require you to buy something (shipping and handling for free kits, for example). Payment is by check and $20 is the payment threshold. You get your check the following month for payment requests made by the 20th of the prior month.
With InboxDollars you'll be able to earn money pretty much the same way as Cashcrate, but with InboxDollars you can play online games as well, and complete tasks. Verifying business contact information on web sites and finding Facebook pages are examples of typical tasks on InboxDollars. They pay via check and it can take up to one month to receive. You'll have to make at least $30 to cash out, of which a certain percentage must come from completed offers.
Mechanical Turk
Amazon Mechanical Turk is completely task-oriented and on any given day there will be over 150,000 tasks available. You'll be doing anything from writing short articles, and reviews to surveys and transcription. Most of the offers can be completed in a couple minutes, but some tasks require prior qualification by completing a short test. Data entry and transcription tasks typically require testing, but once you pass them, those tasks open up for you. They pay through Amazon Payments where you can either choose to have your funds transferred to a bank account, or added to an Amazon gift certificate. There is no minimum payout as funds are automatically sent to your Amazon Payments account. People new to Mturk are required to be active for at least 10 days to begin receiving payment.
There are plenty of these sites around the web, but the ones I listed here are a few of the most popular and are solid companies as well.
Earn Money With Residual Writing
Hubpages is an online writing platform offering writers the opportunity to share revenue with the company. Also with Hubpages, writers can earn according to page views. Earnings are also accumulated through Amazon and EBay sales, as well as Adsense. All writers are accepted, but only those who create quality content are featured and invited to participate in their Apprenticeship Program.
Aunice Reed, is a freelance writer whose published content has appeared on such sites as WiseGeek, EHow Health, Walden U and EHow Family.
More Writing Tips From Aunice:
I do surveys online to make a few extra bucks. I make around $200 a month or so. It wont make you rich but it is easy. Check out cashcrate it's the best.

See also: Chef Bernie Kantak Returns with Citizen Public House
Bernie Kantak Citizen Public House 7111 East Fifth Avenue, Scottsdale 480-398-4208 www.citizenpublichouse.com
This is part one of my interview with Bernie Kantak, chef and co-owner of Citizen Public House. Come back on Tuesday for part two, when Kantak reveals where he'd go if he could jump on an airplane tomorrow and how Chef Josh Hebert of Posh inadvertently changed his life.
Bernie Kantak is about as far from celebrity chefdom as a celebrity chef can get. He doesn't seek the limelight, because he's never comfortable in it. You won't see him swanning around the dining room or schmoozing it up at Citizen Public House -- although he makes little forays from the kitchen from time to time to speak to friends and regulars, who are often one and the same thing.
If it weren't for his Eastern European looks and ever-present cap, he could pass for a movie star cowboy -- long, lanky, and laconic. In another life, he was an art school major with an emphasis in sculpture, graduating with a fine arts degree from SUNY Cortland, so he's got the soulful artist vibe going -- although he would resist that characterization as too pretentious.
It was actually a ceramics professor who suggested he consider the culinary arts, given that Kantak already had spent so much time in restaurants, earning money as a dishwasher, busboy, server, and line cook. A post-pig roast discussion about art's connection to food and wine prompted Kantak to move to Arizona and sign up for the culinary program at SCI.
Upon graduation, he moved to Lake Havasu to open Shugrue's, and in 1997, moved back to Scottsdale to work as sous chef at Cowboy Ciao. Within six months, he was heading up the kitchen, turning out the wildly imaginative dishes for which the restaurant is famous. Kantak stayed put for nearly 12 years, leaving in 2009 to pursue opportunities downtown, which eventually fell through.
In 2011, he and his partners -- mixologist Richie Moe and front-of-the-house man Andrew Fritz -- opened Citizen, which will celebrate its two year-anniversary in January.
Favorite food smell: Fresh mint, definitely. It takes me back to my childhood in my grandparent's backyard.
Favorite thing to eat growing up: A tomato sandwich with Wonder Bread, mayonnaise, and black pepper.
What's your guilty pleasure?: Burnt brownies and ice cold milk.
Most overrated ingredient: Filet mignon. I want some fat, dammit!
Most underrated ingredient: Vinegar, I use it extensively for pickling, sauces, dressings, and marinades. I love the stuff and would fall apart without it.
Something always found in your kitchen: My Wustof [knife].
Something never found in your kitchen: Chocolate-covered pretzels. They piss me off for some strange reason.
Trend you like: Food trucks, They're traveling restaurants! What's not to love? Is comfort food a trend or here to stay?: Here to stay -- at least different interpretations of it. I hope so anyway; otherwise I'm out of a job!
How has your background (your grandfather being a butcher, your grandparents' nationality, etc) influenced your cooking?: My sister actually makes fun of me a bit for using things here that we would often find at the kitchen table when we were children -- chile sauce from my Swedish grandmother, rustic homey food from my Hungarian grandmother and of course, I have a love for sausage, bacon, pickled eggs, and pig's feet from my German butcher grandfather.
Has your cooking changed over the years and if so, how?: Definitely. It's cleaner. I cook more for me now rather than trying to make others happy.

|My Little Angel at North Hatley Farmers Market
A quick stop for picnic supplies before we visited Le Village Québécois d'Antan!
Le Village Québécois d'Antan boasts that their little village will take you back in time in Québec from 1810-1930! On paper, this village seems to be similar to Upper Canada Village located in Morrisburg, Ontario. At just under an hour from Sherbrooke or just over an hour from Montreal, this is a fun and generally inexpensive trip away from home for families and motorcyclists alike. The village is actually quite sweet but also boasts several modern conveniences that will suit folks who don't mind losing some of the authenticity found in other parks like Upper Canada Village. For families and bikers alike, there is even a sprinkler park to help cool you off. If you arrive early you'll also have the sprinkler park to yourself. There are also various concession stands selling cotton candy, ice cream and soft drinks and other modern amenities. If camping is your thing, there is also a camp site that shares a borderline with the park so that you can visit through the camp site as well for an additional, albeit rebated price. This blog is picture heavy so enjoy the journey!

Lowering Springs & Installation
We offer lowering springs and installation in store. Send a query online or come down to our store for more information and pricing.
Lowering springs are special aftermarket springs that you can buy to replace the stock springs that were installed when your car was manufactured. Lowering springs are a little shorter with more coils than stock strings, which means they create more tension between the suspension system and the frame, causing the body of the car to rest further down, closer to the wheels. This lowers the vehicle's center of gravity, making it easier to handle, and also gives it a stylish, "low rider" appearance.

Teaching with Bear, what a classic!
This post is for anyone about to start a training course in teaching young learners. These 10 terms came up a lot on my YL training course so it's worth reading up on them before you start. I've explained each one in brief, but you'll also find some links for further reading. If more jargon pops up during your training I recommend this good online glossary for ELT related terms from eltnotebook.
- Differentiation
According to Carol Ann Tomlinson, differentiation is 'tailoring instruction to meet individual needs'. Carol has a great summary article on this on the Reading Rockets site, which you can access here.
You can differentiate in tonnes of ways – adding more support or more challenge to a task, having graded outcomes, allowing learners to choose how they demonstrate learning, adapting the learning environment, etc. Tomlinson provides a fair few examples in the aforementioned article.
Rachel Roberts is also a great source of info on differentiation. This article and this webinar are worth viewing.
If you really want to get stuck into this topic, Larry Ferlazzo's page is probably what you're looking for. I'd say this is a must learn phrase! Then again, it doesn't even make the glossary of Annamaria Pinter's 'Teaching Young Learners', so perhaps its losing its 'buzzwordiness'.
- Scaffolding
Scaffolding is providing structured support to help learners achieve a task. The clue is in the word I guess… Personally, I used to think of scaffolding as part of differentiation, until I read this useful definition from edglossary.com. The concept of 'scaffolding of learning' is attributed to Jerome Bruner. One important aspect of scaffolding is how teacher support given to learners is gradually taken away as the learners become more independent. I've posted a few examples of scaffolding in action, here's my favourite.
It's worth reading about Lev Vygotsky's Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) if you want more context for Bruner's ideas. (more…)

You might stay lazy and would fall prey to lazing around. By September, Jupiter would move and aspect your 1st house. This might try to counter balance the chaos in your life. Jupiter is sometimes credited for bringing in lethargic tendencies in life, so it'll be totally on your shoulders to try and take control of your life. Constipation, acidity, and gas might give you troubles some times; keeping a balance diet is advised. Maintain your dietary habits at the perfection. If you have been suffering from backaches or problems related to nervous system, then it's advised that you stay a little cautious.

The courage of this can also be seen in the way you pour your heart out to the one you love and admire. Try to do all this work by September. Because after this, Jupiter will transit in your sixth house and you will also need to invest a lot of hard work in the small matters of love and marriage. There may be some mutual disputes at this time. These could be related to things that you've done or said, so be careful and do not play foul.

Tips to Remember When You Would Purchase a Vacuum Cleaner
When buying a home appliance, then it is really a tough task in the market today. With the number of options available in the market, it can be difficult to select which you need to go for and also which you must ignore. The problem which a lot of people face when buying a dust buster is congested market. Nearly all products have the same features and it is difficult to make a decision on which should be the best choice for one's office or home.
One important thing that you need to remember is that you must focus on long reach. If you would get a full-featured vacuum cleaner, you must consider the long reach. This is not a common feature that people think of but such is quite important for your comfort. The vacuum cleaner that comes with a long reach can ensure that you don't have to bend or lean forward or backward in order to clean the home. You will also be able to ensure that you will be able to clean the long stairs or your ceiling through the use of the vacuum cleaner.
The tech world is shaping to become a wireless world and vacuum cleaner begin introducing such technology in their machines. The wireless technology may be thought to be a lot better but is it really a good thing for you to get such kind of device? You should make sure that you don't go wrong with the decision that you make. Certainly, it is true that the corded or wired vacuum cleaners have less freedom but they don't have a risk with them. It is difficult to clean a huge room or office that comes with a cordless vacuum cleaner since a lot of the cordless cleaners have around 20 minutes of battery life in a single charge. You must think of this prior to buying one.
You must buy a vacuum cleaner to clean your house but who can clean the vacuum cleaner? When the vacuum cleaners become dirty, it can be difficult to clean them. There are vacuum cleaners that are fantastic options like the upside down cleaners. You must take a look at the features if you are going to purchase one.
So many vacuum cleaners have 2 years of warranty for parts as well as maintenance. You should try to stick to such timeframe. There are also those vacuum cleaners with one year warranty. You must avoid them and also opt for the two-year warranty services.
It is really excellent that you go for the popular brands because they have proven track records and they are also fantastic when it comes to the after sales. You need to go through the customer reviews before you purchase a vacuum cleaner from the market.

No 37/2016, Working Papers from Institute of Economic Research
Visegrad countries, Poland, Slovakia, Czech Republic and Hungary have common history and have faced the same challenges created by globalisation process for the last three decades. They have successfully transformed form central planned to market economies. They have implemented fundamental reforms of their whole institutional systems and finally joined the European Union in the year 2004. During this process the most significant changes, which were directly influenced by opening of these economies in the reality of globalisation, have been seen on the labour markets. From the policy point of view the labour markets are always considered as crucial for social and macroeconomic stability of economies. This forces the economists to constant empirical research in this field. In this context the aim of the article is to conduct comparative analysis of the unemployment phenomena in the four countries. For this purpose wavelet analysis was applied. In the research a discrete wavelet transformation was used, which has been recently effectively used for analysis of macroeconomic indicators. The empirical research was conducted for the years 1998-2016 and it was based on the Eurostat data. In the research the following hypothesis was verified: the phenomenon of unemployment in the case of Poland, Slovakia and Hungary is formed in a quite similar way, whereas in Czech Republic the situation on the labour markets is mainly determined by factors of different nature.

According to Gigi Hadid's wardrobe, every rule about when and where an outfit should be worn has been happily tossed out the window. Whether it's wearing athleisure to date night, leather in the summertime or pajamas to a party, she wears whatever she feels like no matter what — and we are obsessed. So, what happened this week in the story of Gigi's style rebellion? A gown at the airport.
The supermodel looked glamorous in a sheer, printed maxi dress, black ankle boots and a powder blue jacket. We're going to do everyone a favor already and get the really bad pun out of the way: this look is sheer perfection (ugh, sorry). In all seriousness this outfit is perfect for the beach, shopping, or as Gigi would have it... traveling.
If you want to try this look yourself, we found a dress that's similar on Nasty Gal for only $98, just in time for your next weekend getaway.

Ormat Technologies: Geothermal Power Plant
Ormat Technologies, Inc. announced that it has completed the modification of the 20MW Burdette (Galena1) power plant into an Evaporative Cooling configuration. This modification is another step in a multiyear research and development (R&D) program that tested different methods to implement evaporative cooling as well as the associated water treatment solutions.
Evaporative cooling allows increasing power generation from air cooled facilities by as much as 30% during the hot hours of the day.
The implementation of this system in the moderate to dry climates, especially in the High Desert, generates more energy per year than water cooled systems with a fraction of the water and chemical consumption of a traditional water cooled system.
From the consumer's side the implementation of this system further increase the value of geothermal energy as it increases the available energy to the grid at "Summer Peak", the hours of high demand, while maintaining it smooth and predictable dispatch curve which is not affected by temporary cloud coverage or changes to the wind regime.
Ormat currently operates approximately 180 MW in suitable climates and expects to add another 60MW in the near future. Ormat plans to implement the learning from the operation of the Burdette plant both in its existing fleet and in future installations.

Homeless Man's Murder Conviction Voided
SANTA ROSA, Calif. (CN) — A California appeals court overturned a homeless man's first-degree murder conviction because the trial judge wrongfully excluded expert testimony on the plight and dangers homeless people face.
Vladimir Sotelo-Urena, 31, was convicted of the Dec. 24, 2013 murder of Nicholas Bloom. Both men were homeless in Santa Rosa. Sotelo-Urena claimed it was self-defense: that he thought Bloom had attacked him before and he feared for his life.
An expert witness was to testify that because homeless victims are subject to violent crimes at much higher rates than people with homes, Sotelo-Urena was much more sensitive to perceived threats.
According to the National Coalition of the Homeless, in the past 17 years there have been 1,657 reported acts of violence against the homeless and 428 homeless people have been killed. And the problem appears to be getting worse.
In 2013, 109 attacks against the homeless were reported and 18 people were killed: a 23.8 percent increase over 2012.
In 2014, there were 122 victims and 26 deaths. The attackers are generally men younger than 30 — often teenage boys. But the trial court decided this was not relevant to Sotelo-Urena's claim that he believed he needed to use lethal force to protect himself.
It happened on Christmas Eve. According to trial testimony, Donovan Sweeden watched Bloom inject enough methamphetamine to kill most people. After shooting up, Sweeden became agitated and went for a walk down Jeju Way, an alley behind the library, where Sotelo-Urena had been camping for two weeks. Sweeden described Bloom as "hot" and "explosive."
Sotelo-Urena told police that when Bloom found him he was sitting alone reading the Quran. Bloom asked him for a cigarette and Sotelo-Urena tried to ignore him, but Bloom asked again and moved closer, belligerently. Sotelo-Urena had recently been stabbed by a gang of men and thought he recognized Bloom as one of them.
After that encounter, Sotelo-Urena began packing a kitchen knife and when Bloom reached for something in his waistband, Sotelo-Urena pulled out his knife.
"I just felt like I was in a position of danger and it was, and it got my nerves rattled, ya know? My adrenaline just jumped up," he said, according to the Wednesday ruling from the First Appellate District, Division Two.
Sotelo-Urena told Bloom to back off, but Bloom laughed and the tangled. They sort of "waltzed" down the street, moving about a block, and Bloom was stabbed in the neck and body.
"Last time it happened is because I waited. And because, ya know, I let, you know, him get the best of me, you know, and I wasn't gonna do that a second time," Sotelo-Urena told police. He eventually acknowledged that he was trying to kill Bloom.
"Essentially, yes. I wasn't tryin' to tickle him," he said.
After killing Bloom, Sotelo-Urena sat down and waited for police. A witness described him as silent and despondent as he waited. Another one said he'd heard what happened, and described a heated argument between the two men, but saw nothing.
Bloom had eight deep stab wounds to his chest and abdomen and 70 to 80 lighter wounds, mostly to the neck, that caused a nearly 10-inch gaping wound. He died mostly due to the injuries to his torso, but the neck wounds and methamphetamine intoxication contributed. He tested positive for methamphetamine, amphetamine, THC and opioids. Sotelo-Urena had no intoxicants in his system.
In Sotelo-Urena's defense, Robert C. Coates, a retired San Diego County Superior Court judge, was to testify on the experience of the homelessness and that data show they suffer exposure to violence. But the trial judge ruled that the issue was not whether the defendant was homeless, but rather "what risk did he face that anybody would face sitting behind the library on Christmas Eve at night?" and that "homelessness has nothing to do with his possible victimization."
A jury found Sotelo-Urena guilty and he was sentenced to 25 years to life in prison, with an additional year tacked on for using a knife.
He appealed, saying the trial court, in Sonoma County, abused its discretion and deprived him of his constitutional right to present a complete defense by excluding Coates' testimony.
In overturning the conviction Wednesday, the appeals court began by citing out the recent murders of several other homeless men.
In April, George Lowery, a 50-year-old homeless man, was beaten to death in San Diego County and a homeless man in Fresno, Gerald Holiday, was murdered near a Dumpster.
In May, Stephen Williams, also homeless, was found dead in a pond in Golden Gate Park in San Francisco, and Joshua William Clark, 37, was killed fighting with another homeless man over cigarettes or pot.
In July, police arrested a man in San Diego suspected of a spree of attacks that left three homeless men dead and others injured.
"These tragedies in those few months are not anomalies — studies show that homeless individuals are the victims of crime at a significantly higher rate than housed individuals," Acting Presiding Judge James Richman wrote for the panel.
"Thus, had the jury heard Judge Coates expert opinion, there is reasonable probability of a more favorable result … it might have returned a verdict of second-degree murder rather than first-degree murder.
"The judgment of conviction is reversed."
Judges Therese Stewart and Marla Miller joined Richman on the panel.

AsianScientist (Dec. 31, 2012) – Scientists have figured out the mysterious inner workings of Chang Shan, a Chinese herbal medicine used to treat malarial fever for thousands of years.
The study, published in the journal Nature this week, shows in atomic detail how a two-headed compound derived from the active ingredient in Chang Shan works.
Scientists have known that this compound, called halofuginone (a derivative of the febrifugine), can suppress parts of the immune system, but the exact mechanism for action was not known.
Thanks to a high-resolution structure solved at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI), we now know that halofuginone acts like a wrench by jamming the gears of a molecular machine that carries out aminoacylation, a crucial biological process that allows organisms to synthesize the proteins they need to live.
Chang Shan, also known as Dichroa febrifuga Lour, is believed to help with malarial fevers because traces of a halofuginone-like chemical in the herb interfere with protein synthesis in malaria parasites, killing them in an infected person's bloodstream.
"Our new results solved a mystery that has puzzled people about the mechanism of action of a medicine that has been used to treat fever from a malaria infection going back probably 2,000 years or more," said Prof. Paul Schimmel, who led the research.
Halofuginone has been in clinical trials for cancer, but the high-resolution picture of the molecule suggests it has a modularity that would make it useful as a template to create new drugs for numerous other diseases.
The new work shows that halofuginone gets its potency by interfering with an enzyme called tRNA synthetase that is important during protein synthesis.
Interestingly, said Schimmel, the ATP substrate is also needed for the halofuginone to bind – a mechanism that has never been observed in biochemistry before.
"This is a remarkable example where a substrate of an enzyme (ATP) captures an inhibitor of the same enzyme, so that you have an enzyme-substrate-inhibitor complex," said Schimmel.

I love your cause-- being someone that benefited from countless after school and summer school programs, I completely understand their importance.

Hopefully we'll be in touch some time in the future. Best of luck and best wishes to you! link Tyler commented on Living In The Hyphen 04:37, Jun 01, 2018 I love the premise of your project, and I have a visceral understanding of the polarizations that you speak of. Though my idea doesn't directly address racial tensions and sociopolitical disparities as yours does, I do believe that part of bridging the gap and part of living in the hyphen is becoming comfortable there. This comfort comes about through exposure. My idea is a tutoring app called iStudy. On it, students may make profiles, but there is no category for racial identification. I do this in part because I deemed it superfluous for the nature of my app, and because there is no function for racial preference built into the app. My app allows for an environment that operates freely within "the hy-phen" that you speak of. Best of luck to you!

Ready to reveal your beautifully radiant skin? Flaunt your gorgeous even skin tone with confidence. Caress Evenly Gorgeous Body Wash, with burnt sugar and karite butter, gently exfoliates and lusciously moisturizes to reveal beautifully even-toned skin. Go ahead, be daring! For a luxurious, exfoliating shower, squeeze onto a wet pouf, work into a rich lather, breathe deeply and indulge. Lose yourself in your shower.
Ingredients: Water/Agua, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Polyethylene, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Glycerin, Acrylates Copolymer, Cocamide Mea, Fragrance/Fragrancia, Glycine Soja Oil, Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil, Butyrospermum Parkii, Molasses/Melaza, Maltodextrin, Guar Hydroxypropyl- Trimonium Chloride, Ppg-9, Propylene Glycol, Tetrasodium Edta, Methylchloroisothiazolinone, Methylisothiazolinone, Caramel, Blue 1, Iron Oxides, Mica, Red 33, Titanium Dioxide, Yellow 6
I'm a big lover of body washes and body products overall, but I just haven't been able to find a body wash I really like lately. I recently received this bottle of Caress Evenly Gorgeous Exfoliating Body Wash and I must say, I LOVE it! It has a shimmery golden colour but leaves no glitter behind. Its two main ingredients are burnt brown sugar and the great moisturizer, karite butter (shea butter). It contains tiny exfoliating beads (which I must say are VERY tiny), which are great for everyday exfoliating, that works to leave your skin feeling soft and smooth. The scent is incredible, heavenly to be exact! It has such a yummy fragrance that's not too sweet (think creme brûlée), while still leaves you smelling refreshingly clean. Lingers on your skin for the entire day too. As for the texture, PERFECT! It's not runny and it lathers well. Based on the size of the bottle (18 fl oz), I would say it should last up to 3 months if used everyday. The price is a plus for me, as it is just about $4 for such a giant bottle. You won't break the bank! Best of all, it leaves my skin feeling soft and clean. Will definitely be using this for a while!

'It's Always Sunny' Cast on Season 10's Surprises, Pressure to Stay Funny
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia kicks off its 10th season Wednesday on FXX, and it still isn't any easier for the venerable sitcom's cast to maintain a straight face while filming.
Charlie Day (Charlie), Danny DeVito (Frank), Glenn Howerton (Dennis), Rob McElhenney (Mac) and Kaitlyn Olson (Dee) told The Hollywood Reporter during a recent set visit that season 10 viewers can expect everything from a single shot that lasts more than 10 minutes and includes lots of chicken feathers, to Frank getting covered in black paint, to Charlie and Dee (maybe?!) making out.
The cast also discussed the pressure to sustain the show's quality after so many episodes, which famous faces will be popping up this season (Key & Peele's Keegan-Michael Key as Steve Harvey! Kind of!) and how the sitcom landscape has changed since the show's 2005 premiere.

What's the craziest scene you've filmed for the new season?
Olson: Kissing Charlie?
Day: Oh, don't tell them that!
Olson: Just kidding.
Day: Don't tell them that.
Olson: Just kidding.
Day: Probably the one-shot. That involved farm animals. We do half an episode in a single shot.
Olson: It's like Noises Off-style, where Charlie's running in and out, and doors are opening at the right moments, and there's livestock.
Day: I'm bringing a health inspector in to look at the bathroom. Meanwhile, Mac and Dennis and Dee and Frank are running around with live chickens behind [the inspector] and trying to keep it all under her nose while trying to pull off this scam about contaminating some steaks they have that were delivered with chicken feathers. It's a convoluted scam. The shot's about a 10- to 15-minute-long shot, and it was a lot of fun.
Olson: We shoot out of order, so we shoot scenes from five episodes on any given day. So they all kind of jumble together.
Day: We had to shoot [one episode] at a fish factory, which had a wonderful aroma.
Olson: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Got a lot of fish in the face.
Day: It was a real fish factory. That was funny but not fun.

Do you have a favorite memory from filming the new batch of episodes?
DeVito: This 10th season has been off the charts — we do so many crazy scenes. They are guilty of sitting around, going, "How can we f— Frank up this year. Where can we put this guy?" I've been painted black this year. I was in camouflage. I've been in a cheetah suit. Last year, I slimed across the floor, and they're all of lot of fun to do. I wait for the scripts eagerly to see what's going to happen next.
Howerton: There's an episode in which my character gets kind of bogged down and ends up spending pretty much the entire episode trying to sell his Range Rover to someone he feels is worthy of such a car. It's always fun when my character gets extremely frustrated or angry and goes off on some rants and monologues. It was really fun shooting the Wade Boggs [season premiere] — the whole one takes place on an airplane [where the gang tries to drink over 50 beers on a flight, as the baseball Hall of Famer supposedly once did].
McElhenney: Dennis and Mac's apartment this year has been destroyed from a fire we had last season, and we don't really explain that. You just see us living with Dee for the greater part of the season, and then at one point, we have a big reveal of what actually happened to that apartment. We have a buddy of ours in the episode, Dax Shepard, who is making a cameo.
Will many favorite characters be returning this season?
Day: Oh, yeah. We got Rickety Cricket [David Hornsby] coming back. He's been in a fire. Last season, we burned him — accidentally, of course. The mothers are back. Mac's dad's [Gregory Scott Cummins] back! He's been arrested — he's a suspect in a murder case. It looks like he might get the death penalty. Mac is trying to run around to save his dad and of course is making matters worse. You know who else was a guest star in this season, who was absolutely wonderful? Keegan-Michael Key, from Key & Peele. He plays sort of a Steve Harvey-type guy on our version of the Family Feud, which is called the Family Fight. And the gang goes on the Family Fight, and he was great. Super happy to combine comedic forces with those guys, who are brilliant.

Day: There's not really a pressure to top yourself, but there is a pressure to ...
Olson: Maintain.
Day: Maintain the quality — or at least, our own perceived quality. So you always want the episodes to live up to your own personal standards. It's devastating if you feel as though they're not, so there is always that pressure to make sure the show is as funny as it can possibly be.
Howerton: We're always trying to surprise people. Surprising people and catching people off guard and giving people something that they were not expecting to me is what elicits the biggest and strongest and funniest laughs, and oftentimes that results in doing things like pushing the line or pushing the boundaries of decency or whatever because that's just what's funniest, but it's never our intention to be raunchy. We just want to be funny.
How difficult is it to keep a straight face when you're filming the show?
DeVito: It's really difficult. Some of the funniest stuff we do just barely makes it into the show because everybody laughs. We're just having a lot of fun doing stuff. Many, many times we mess up each other's stuff because we're bustin'. We're all guilty of being pretty frivolous about that. Just a bunch of unprofessional assholes.
How has the sitcom landscape changed since your show launched?
Howerton: There weren't a lot of live-action cable comedies on [back then], as I recall. It's changed drastically. There still aren't that many [basic-cable comedies] — you've got Broad City, you've got Workaholics. I think our show maybe introduced people to kind of how far you can go with a comedy. It's weird — I don't want to describe ourselves as trailblazers because there was Curb Your Enthusiasm, and there was the British Office. Those were the two shows that blazed the trail for us. They were the shows that influenced us as much as anything else in the beginning. We wanted to do something that felt like it was made for our generation and for younger people and kind of break the mold a little bit of what a sitcom could be. If anything, we showed that a show [could succeed] that took on the kind of subject matter that we took on and could push the boundaries of what was considered tasteful, just in terms of how you could take protagonists and make them potentially really unlikable and make those characters still lovable. It became more of a possibility, I think.
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia airs Wednesdays at 10 p.m. on FXX.

Connecting need with supply in Nepal
Sometimes even a tiny impact can help, and in a crisis situation like the one unfolding daily in Nepal, those of us far away can only donate money, time, effort, and sweat to get things done.
To that end, I've put together a very rudimentary, but effective, means of connecting bonafide need in Nepal with relief supplies on the ground in Kathmandu, or supplies that can be transported by individuals heading over there. Please read carefully all the information below.
- I cannot (and will not) send supplies with someone going to Nepal who is not tied to official relief efforts.
- I cannot (and will not) be able to connect those in need with supplies if those supplies cannot be retrieved in Kathmandu and delivery made to the person or entity needed.
That said, please contact me using the specific emails below if you meet the individual criteria for each one. Sorry to be so strict on this, but if I get inundated with requests that are out of line with what I detail below, the system (me) will break. So, please, help me to help you and help others.
I'm going to Nepal and can carry gear. If this is you, please email me at email@example.com IF you can fit the following criteria:
- You are going to Nepal on official relief business, and can verify that.
- You can and are willing to take extra baggage with you, which could be one or more heavy duffel bags.
- You understand that this is an unorthodox means of getting supplies in country, and while it is unlikely there will be issues in customs, there could be. You accept this risk.
- You can provide me with specific travel times, dates, airlines, etc. I need to know:
- Where you're leaving from
- What airline and flights you are on
- When you will arrive in Kathmandu
- If you can do this, email firstname.lastname@example.com.
I'm in Nepal and need supplies. If this is you, please email me at email@example.com IF you can fit the following criteria:
- You can confirm a bonafide need in Kathmandu or elsewhere that cannot or is not being met by current relief efforts.
- You can confirm your ability to receive the supplies at Tribhuvan Airport or pick up from another location in Kathmandu.
- You can confirm your ability to transport the supplies using your own power or that of friends, etc., to the recipients.
- You can provide a specific list of supplies needed, quantities needed, and number of people to be impacted. Remember, this is small time; I cannot deliver supplies for an entire village or neighborhood, but will do my best to get reasonable quantities to people in a timely fashion.
- If you can do this, email firstname.lastname@example.com.
I have tents and supplies on the ground in Nepal. If this is you, please email me at firstname.lastname@example.com IF you can fit the following criteria:
- You have reasonable quality tents or other shelter and warmth (survival) related goods in Kathmandu or elsewhere in Nepal.
- You are able to inventory them and let me know the type, size, quantity, and location of these items.
- You are willing to have them go out to those in need, understanding that you will not see them again, and this will be a donation. You also understand that I will do my best, through my network, to get replacement tents and supplies to people who donate; but this is not guaranteed, and will not happen until after the dust settles and some normalcy returns – most likely, post-monsoon.
- You are ok with meeting people who have a need and have them come to pick up the items for distribution.
- If you can do this, email email@example.com.

What women wear can often be the focus of critique and controversy - all the more so when the woman is an ex-model, married to the US President and visiting Saudi Arabia.
The question of what First Lady Melania Trump would wear on her husband's first foreign trip echoes similar debates around Michelle Obama's decision to wear colour - blue and white - and not cover her hair on a visit to ultra-conservative Saudi Arabia.
But with Mr Trump's hawkish political profile, and the First Lady's insider position in the world of fashion, buzz around what the president's wife would wear and whether that would include a headscarf was at a high in the hours before Air Force One touched down in Riyadh.
Mrs Trump embarked on Marine One at the White House on Friday in a high-waisted midi pencil skirt in orange leather with a front split, a cream crewneck sweater with bows at the cuffs and a pair of sky-high nude Manolos.
When she emerged at Riyadh's King Khalid International Airport the next morning, the First Lady's attire was more conservative - black patent stilettos and a black long-sleeved, wide-leg jumpsuit with a narrow slit down the neckline, cinched at the waist with a wide gold belt.
And like Mrs Obama, and her predecessor Laura Bush, Mrs Trump did not cover her hair.
Mrs Obama had earned praise for her decision not to cover her head, but Mr Trump at the time tweeted his disapproval.
Mr Trump's daughter and advisor Ivanka Trump also did not have her hair covered when she emerged from Air Force One in a long-sleeved black-and-white maxi dress, holding her husband Jared Kushner's hand.
Anticipation around what the female Trumps would wear during the visit had been building for days because Saudi Arabia is a religious state with some of the world's harshest restrictions on women.
Saudi Arabia's guardianship system prohibits women from driving and from studying or travelling without permission from a male guardian, in the form of a father, brother or husband. Women are also expected to wear long black abaya robes and cover their hair in public in Riyadh.
The country is at a potentially unprecedented crossroads, with its future identity at stake as economic and political interests have brought to the limelight longstanding gender norms.
Local media on Thursday quoted Saudi Arabia's foreign minister as saying authorities did not demand anyone adhere to any specific clothing regulations.
The US State Department's website says women who choose not to conform to wearing "a full-length black covering known as an abaya, and cover their heads... face a risk of confrontation by Mutawwa and possible detention/arrest" in Saudi Arabia.
The Mutawwa, which literally translates to "volunteers" from Arabic, are Saudi Arabia's Commission of the Promotion of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice, known as the "morality police".
Following accusations the Mutawwa were abusing their power, Saudi Arabia last year announced the religious police could no longer arrest suspects or request identification.

Truck Drivers and Hemorrhoids
Truck drivers and hemorrhoids are often associated with each other by many people. But it's probably not the connection you want to make between you and your job. You prefer to be considered a warrior-strong road, independent and virile-a free spirit are braving all the times and obstacles to bring your cargo to its destination safely. This is the romantic point of view the public has truck drivers, but the reality, as you know, is different from the perception. Truck drivers as a group face more stress at work and are more prone to illness than the general workforce. The bane of truck drivers is the tendency to develop hemorrhoids. Truck drivers and hemorrhoids are a business hazard that comes to talk about your working conditions. In fact, if steps are taken to find a cure for your hemorrhoids, your overall health will improve dramatically.
Truck drivers must drink water daily to help prevent hemorrhoids.
If you are a typical long-haul truck driver, you have to deal with a host of adverse conditions at work. Truck drivers and hemorrhoids are caught in a vicious circle. The small workspace limits your ability to move freely and sit during long hours in the same position increases the overall stress on your body, and especially in the pelvic area. People who work in the office face the same problems, but they are not confined as you are. The professional trucker cannot get up and move or have a drink at the water fountain that other workers can do. Irregular shifts, road conditions, torsional postures and cabin vibration contribute to additional stress on your body. Moreover, the trucker can be for several hours almost motionless, and then when you arrive at your destination, make you lift heavy objects. This puts pressure on the cardiovascular system and may be one of the reasons why truckers have a higher incidence of high blood pressure and heart attacks. Hemorrhoids are part of this vascular system that becomes overloaded. Truck drivers and hemorrhoids are a deadly combination that can end a satisfying career otherwise.
Sitting for long hours in the cabin in the same position creates a sustained pressure on the rectal area. If poor circulation results and blood pools in the veins of the rectum, hemorrhoids may form. Truck drivers and hemorrhoids are the results of the restricted work environment. Add to that a low fiber diet, and the effects of constipation. Constipation and straining bowel movements are one of the leading causes of hemorrhoids. It seems to be a vicious circle once the form of hemorrhoids. Work conditions contribute to hemorrhoids aggravation, and the trucker has to work harder to get rid than the average person. But the situation is impossible, and you can find yourself on the road (no pun intended) back to regain your health and become hemorrhoid without. Truck drivers and hemorrhoids are terms that can be separated.
See more H Miracle – Nature's Method to Cure Hemorrhoids Review
Facing hemorrhoids on the road:
- Do not force a bowel movement. If the urge is not there, leave the toilet and wait for nature to call again.
- Use moist toilet paper or to avoid irritation of the towels in the anal area.
- If possible, use a "Sitz bath. This is a plastic basin that is placed on a toilet where you can enjoy your rectal area in hot water. Soak for 10 to 20 minutes each time several times a day. Soaking will soothe hemorrhoids and relax the muscles.
- Use an ice pack on the anal area, in the form of a gel block or a cold treatment bag. They are more efficient and less messy than a real ice pack. Using cryotherapy after a Sitz bath is particularly useful. The cold will help reduce hemorrhoids and relieve itching.
- Use a topical cream such as comfrey. This soothing cream containing natural ingredients will relieve itching and burning.
- Drink eight to ten glasses of water a day to soften your stools. Truck drivers and hemorrhoids are also helped by the added fluid.
- Use an emollient if you need extra help. Stool softeners are sold over the counter at drug stores in liquid or capsule form. But be careful, do not combine emollients with mineral oil, a lubricant laxative, as emollients can increase the absorption and toxicity of mineral oil. Mineral oil absorbed into the body can cause inflammation in the liver, spleen and lymph nodes.
- Healing the help of your digestive tract with herbal remedies that relieve the burning sensation, itching, and bleeding from internal hemorrhoids.
- Use a rectal ampoule to rinse impurities and bacteria from the rectum.
- Eat meals at regular times every day. Truck drivers and hemorrhoids tend to go together because of the irregularity of the work. Try to regulate your digestive system by eating at the same time every day instead of haphazard.
Choose meals containing fiber, but low in carbohydrates and fats. Avoid fast food restaurants and foods high in sodium. Truck drivers and hemorrhoids are synonymous with eating food.
- When a rest stop, exercise by stretching and walking.
Truck drivers and hemorrhoids do not have to go hand in hand if you take care of your health. Let go of junk foods that lead to an ever-increasing appetite for more of the same. Work on the consumption of healthy foods at regular times and exercise. Drink as much water as you can during the day to give your body the lubrication it needs in the digestive tract. It will not be easy at first, but if you can break your bad habits, it will go a long way to restoring your health. That the public perception of the truck driver strong and manly be a reality. If professional pilots work on a healthy lifestyle, people will no longer take the association between truck drivers and hemorrhoids.
