Emirates Gas launches LPG safety drive
Dubai, July 10, 2010
Emirates Gas has launched a safety campaign in collaboration with the Public Health and Safety Department of Dubai Municipality, to raise awareness about implementing safety procedures in the handling, storage and usage of LPG cylinders.
A leading supplier of LPG cylinders in Dubai and the Northern Emirates, Emirates Gas said the two-week long campaign targeted business establishments like restaurants, cafeterias and hotels in Dubai.
The campaign ensured that businesses had special well-ventilated cabinets made of un-inflammable substances that were provided for gas cylinders and that no other hazardous or flammable substances are stored.
Emirates Gas also ensured that fire-extinguishers were easily accessible in case of an emergency and pipelines and valves were serviced and maintained regularly.
Hesham Ali Mustafa, general manager, Emirates Gas said the company was committed to strengthening the use of safety requirements amongst its customers.
'Safety first is our motto at Emirates Gas. LPG cylinders, which is one of the most popular fuels for cooking can also be very hazardous if not installed within certain standards,' Mustafa explained.
'We believe that educating our customers is vital to reduce the incidence of fires and accidents due to gas leakage which is why it is important that the properties and safe handling are understood and applied,' he added.
Sultan Al Suwaidi, head of the Public Safety section at the Health and Public Safety Department, Dubai Municipality said, "Gas distribution companies, restaurants, cafeterias, public kitchens, and bakeries were targeted to avoid gas cylinders explosion due to misuse. It is also part of the daily department activities to ensure the implementation of safety procedures for gas cylinders."
Emirates Gas regularly trains distributors and their employees in safe distribution, transportation and storage of LPG cylinders.-TradeArabia News Service

Safer Working Conditions Worth a few More Bucks for Your Sweater
During the three days I spent in Bangladesh in late August, workers there described to me the terror and despair they confronted during and since the building collapse in April and the garment factory fire several months earlier — events that together killed more than 1,200 workers. They had jumped from buildings and watched family members die in the rubble next to them.
Bangladesh may be half a world away, but the clothes its workers make are sold almost everywhere we shop. Globalization has propelled Bangladeshi workers into the international marketplace in ways that are both important for them and their country's economic development. But we cannot simply stand by and let workers sacrifice their lives to make our clothes.
While important steps have been taken since April by an unprecedented collaboration of governments, retailers and organizations to begin to address building and fire safety, the much larger challenge remains the improvement of worker rights, without which Bangladesh citizens will continue to face the same powerlessness confronted by the Rana Plaza factory workers who had seen the cracks in the building's walls and feared showing up to work every day.
The need to change Bangladesh labor laws, practices and enforcement to ensure workers have their basic rights to associate and bargain collectively is too often seen as secondary to fire and safety remediation. The prime minister and three key department secretaries described to me in detail the steps being taken to install fire protection systems, to hire engineers to inspect structures and to compensate victims and provide health care. This is vital, and still painfully incomplete, but every worker whom I spoke with recognized that if they had a real voice in the workplace they would never have entered those dangerous working conditions.
The Rana Plaza building collapse that killed 1,132 workers, coming just five months after a fire at the Tazreen factory killed 112, hit the world with long-overdue force. The U.S. government has temporarily suspended trade benefits to Bangladesh. The European Union is considering similar and broader action. Retailers have split into separate groups seeking to address building fires and safety. And the International Labor Organization is engaging in on-the-ground work to strengthen worker rights, as are individual NGOs and labor unions.
Combined, these first steps represent a unique development in international trade. And I made it clear to everyone I met during my visit that it is our hope to restore trade benefits and bring about lasting change for the Bangladeshi people.
That change — particularly with regard to worker rights — will not come easily. The task is immense. Four million people, mostly women, work in the nation's garment industry, by far the largest source of non-rural employment and the most important cog in Bangladesh's economy. Most workers I met were making between 25 and 35 cents per hour.
While there have been some recent labor law reforms, it is clear that that worker rights today are more a mirage than a reality.
Garment industry owners are active at all levels of government, with many serving in the Parliament and working to weaken labor law reform. At one of the plants I visited, management friendly to the efforts by workers to organize were visited by Government Intelligence Officers. Obscure requirements make registering labor organizations difficult.
Providing workers with rights to insist on safe working conditions and higher wages will not harm the ability of Bangladesh entrepreneurs to compete. I visited two factories whose labor costs represented barely more than 2% of the product's $60 retail price. Wages could be doubled and would still represent a small increase in production costs. Reality does not conform to the position taken by a CEO of one of the country's largest middleman companies, who said that for factories to get safer, clothing prices would have to go up, and "so far consumers have just not been willing to accept higher costs." Surely, consumers should be given the chance to buy goods produced safely by workers making a decent wage.
The U.S., working collaboratively with the EU, must continue to insist that all partners are meaningfully at the table and that we address fire and safety and the fundamental issue of labor law reform and worker rights together. And while Bangladesh is not among the 11-nation Trans-Pacific Partnership negotiations, those discussions must fortify the progress we have made to incorporate international standards in trade agreements. That agreement must include a fully enforceable workers' rights standard, and we must insist that Vietnam and others rise to this standard so that it is not the next magnet for lowest common denominator trade.
Trade must build on free markets that are not predatory, that do not create a race to the bottom, and that do not simply move from one country to another to exploit the cheapest labor. Rather, it must build on competition based on standards that spread the benefits of globalization to all corners of the world.

Esophageal Cancer
Non-operable esophageal cancer
A friend of mine has recently been diagnosed with stage II esophageal cancer (contained) according to the physician. However, he was told today it was also found in a lymph node under his collar bone, making his esophageal tumor inoperable. Why can't they take out the lymph node and the tumor? Why does the lymph node now make the esophageal tumor inoperable?
If the tumor is high in the esophagus, then the lymph node found under the collar bone is considered to be locoregional spread; your friend could be eligible for surgery but after chemoradiation therapy.
There are isolated cases with this scenario who can have surgery not initially, but after chemotherapy and radiation therapy.

Protect young eyes
In regards to Rodney Espe's letter, "Stop library porn viewing" (June 23): First of all, thank you, Rodney, for writing such an enlightening letter to the community. I am in complete agreement with your viewpoint.
Imagine this scenario: Big sister takes little sister to story time and upon returning home the mother asks, "How was story time, children?" Little sister responds, "Oh it was great, Mommy, but when big sissy took me upstairs to get her book, I saw a saw a man watching a naked man wrestling a naked woman on a computer screen. It was gross and scary, Mommy!"
Hey kids, come get your virtual "sexual fantasy" at the Hood River Public Library.
Last time I checked, the Hood River County Public Library isn't an over-21 establishment. This is an institution serving all ages.
As adults in this community, it is our job to protect the minds and hearts of the innocent and create a safe environment for all ages. It's time to enforce some "rules" or solutions. I'm sure that many people would be willing to contribute funds for a Net Nanny or internet content protection program.
As far as I know, the Hood River County School system doesn't allow children to view pornography in the public schools. What makes the public library exempt from enforcing the same "rules" or stop-gaps?
Let's read the basic definition of a library: A public library, or any library (i.e. schools, institutions, social organizations, individual communities) is created with the intention of providing free public access to reading material, with the altruistic goal of educational enlightenment and the better welfare of the people.
Unless you consider viewing porn "enlightenment," please stop sitting on your hands and come up with a real solution to the problem that allows Hood River taxpayers to be proud of their continued support.
Carolyn Zuck Hood River
Time for discussion
In response to the letter "Stop library porn viewing" (June 23) I usually have an opinion, but for the most part refrain from sharing it unless I feel very strongly. And in this case, I do, so here it is:
Rod Espe wrote about a problem they are seeing in the Hood River County Library lately, several men watching porn. Watching it and children having full view of it.
The editor's note: "By policy, the library does not restrict computer use based on content, unless people are known to be using the computer for illegal purposes." Really?
If someone chooses to watch porn in the privacy of their home, that's their business. If they choose to view porn in a public library that my tax dollars help pay for, now it becomes my business.
Is it time for an updated policy? To the Library Board: Is this really what you think the voters in Hood River County wanted to use our tax dollars for? A vote that took you two tries to get? Internet porn for all?
I think this is a discussion worth starting and hearing. Hood River County voters: Your thoughts?

Revisionist history
As a citizen of Cascade Locks with an interest in the smooth and legal running of our government, I wish to propose a change to the agenda at our city council meetings: I would like to see an agenda item placed at the end of the evening called Revisionist History.
This item would be handled as it is currently by the mayor, as the mayor is actually performing this duty already. Making this action an actual item vs. the current volunteer performance would give it the veneer of propriety and allow our citizens practice at the elegant art of rebuttal, something sorely needed in the current process.

Grow pears, not park
I want to agree with others that the Parks and Rec people did not do their homework on the property in the Barrett area for a park and since it is in EFU zone it should be used as such. It would grow good pears.

H2O quality report

Kudos due
Kudos to our mayor and city council for standing up to the relentless and endless pursuit of their goals by the group "against everything." This group does not represent the majority of us and my sympathies to the mayor and city council who must listen to them meeting after meeting.
Ruth Turner Hood River
I would like to comment on the recent story printed June 27, "CL citizens protest 'illegal' city budget."
I wonder, did the reporter do any research at all on this story? No; in his hurry to get it in the next paper he showed his bias for the five-alarmers council here in Cascade Locks.
Did the reporter read any council minutes to find out what Ordinance 416 was? No because if he had he would have seen that Ord. 416 was an ordinance to attach a new fire suppression fee to our electrical meter.
Did the reporter read any council minutes to see what action the currently unelected council took on Ord. 416? No, because if he had he would have seen that council took no action on Ord. 416.
Instead, in their zeal to offer the citizens' money as a sacrifice to the Taj Mahal fire station, they chose the path of least resistance and went with Resolution 1053. This is a resolution that has a current fire suppression fee that is attached to our water meter. Passing Res. 1053 increased the fee from $1 to $9 and from $25 to $33!
So in reality the council's last-minute action offering to put Ord. 416 on the ballot for the citizens to vote on is a non-action and raises more questions than answers.
Does the council intend to add another fee to our electrical meters in addition to the fees already being raised by Res. 1053? Does the council intend to repeal the fees that they just voted in if the citizens agree to switch the fee to their electrical meters? Questions that should have been asked by the reporter.
Either way, clearly nothing is being rescinded as was reported.

Learn from our history
I recently read that Ben Franklin invited leaders of the Iroquois nation to talk to the framers of our constitution. The Iroquois told them that no rule or decision should be made without taking the next seven generations into consideration and that women have more empathy for children, the future generations, so their council should be sought out.
Unfortunately, the Iroquois were ignored by their "more civilized" European male invaders (my ancestors) who could not accept wise council. Look how long it took for the U.S. to give women the right to vote.
I am registered Independent and believe the American economy is faith-based, self-fulfilling prophecy. If we don't believe the economy will get better, we won't spend so it won't get better.
"Jump-start" the economy is a nice sound bite that does not address any of our problems. Someone needs to explain how to clean the battery terminals and the economy will start on its own, fix the problem and quit the stop gaps!
We need to believe in our future — and keep in mind the impact on future generations as the Iroquois suggested. As a nation we have borrowed our present from our grandchildren who will be justified in disapproving of our short-sighted actions. We need to learn from past history.

Saves seconds every time and that quickly becomes minutes and hours.
Really? My free time whether I'm a professional or not is still my free time. If I can spend less time behind a computer and more time out shooting or watching the game on the tube...is that not worth something to you? Sometimes amateurs have even less time to spend on their hobby making savings in processing even more important.
It is a feature that I believe the pen tool in illustrator has had for a while. It occurs when working quickly with the pen tool that you place an anchor point a few pixels out. In the past you have have to go to the select point tool and move it into place or nudge it using the arrow keys. With the new behavior you simply hold down the space bar before dropping the point and you can move it into place. This works even if you have the anchor point by the handle.Sounds like no big deal but as I said. Saves seconds every time and that quickly becomes minutes and hours.
Trading time saved against the cost of the means to save that time makes sense only if you can sell that time you have saved. If it means you spend 10 minutes less using Photoshop and 10 minutes more earning at a rate of an additional $60 an hour then it's a good business decision. If you're not paid for your time, but you choose to value your free time at $60 an hour, fine - but you're still $10 a month worse off in cash terms.
I think most people value their free time....I know I sure do. There are many things in life that we spend money on for just enjoyment...do you value spending money on things you enjoy as being worse off in cash terms. Is that how you look at things when you have a nice cold beer on your deck or that nice coffee in the morning. They just make you "worse off in cash terms"?
Is that how you look at things when you have a nice cold beer on your deck or that nice coffee in the morning. They just make you "worse off in cash terms"?
Well ... there are a few glaring issues with your comparison ... first, if there were only one source for coffee or beer and they manipulated their business model into only one option to purchase those items ... with the deck stacked in their favor, not the customer's interests ... how would that method fly? Even if it was affordable on the surface for the short term.There is much more to consider here than the cost of entry. Even if we have an appreciation for Photoshop and desire to use it in the future, CC really isn't a modest commodity purchase you can accurately equate with buying coffee or beer ... there are many, many more options available to consumers than Starbucks and Anheuser-Busch ... they both must compete head-to-head with many other outlets that offer similar quality products ... for that reason alone, they could never force a 'til death do us part subscription model ... yet so many would have us believe that we should avail ourselves to such a model for Photoshop without question.It would be nice if you could address the OP's question with specifics as to how features only available in Ps CC have enhanced your bottom line ... instead of the general platitudes of cost comparisons to disposable commodities. We are already well aware of the current price tag ... what would be helpful is if you shared, in detail, how you save time using CC ... That information would go much further in shaping our decisions rather than only equating CC with your beverage of choice ...
Butch...here you are again running off about CC...you are missing out on the conversation at hand. Try clear your head out of CC for a moment, it seems to be eating you alive.We are discussing what saving processing time means to people. I said if CC can save time in processing images, then it certainly worth the $10 per month...at least for me. others claim if you are not a professional charging out your time, then the time savings is not worth anything monetarily. Why don't you join into this conversation rather than coming on complaining about CC once again. We've heard your complaints already...we understand CC is not for you...go have fun with your Gimp.
It would be nice if you could address the OP's question with specifics as to how features only available in Ps CC have enhanced your bottom line ... instead of the general platitudes..
We are discussing what saving processing time means to people ... you are missing out on the conversation at hand.
ResponseEr, no we're not.The title of the thread is ' Adobe CC any compelling features ...? 'Anything concrete to say, for once ?
Still you are speaking in generalities of theory ... long on advice and short on the substance of actual real world examples.It would be nice if you could provide examples (in detail) of how exactly the new features in Ps CC ARE saving you time and therefore money. That would answer definitively for those of us who speculate, that there is little to gain by signing up.I am not arguing that your theory is invalid. I am simply asking you to offer specific examples for consideration that you have experienced to support your theory. It shouldn't be difficult to share and certainly would offer much more value to the process than than taking shots at Gimp ... which I don't use currently but I would not be ashamed to consider if it could serve my needs. I quit worrying about basing my personal status on what the "cool kids are doing" back in junior high school.
Butch, rather than sitting in your nice leather chair and "armchair quarterbacking", why don't you get out of that chair, download the trial version of CC and see for yourself what you are missing. Why do you expect others to waste time trying to convince you one way or another on CC?
And one of the less obvious benefits of CC will be the fact that the engineers can spend more time on the everyday 'ordinary' features as opposed to the fancy make people upgrade whizz bang features to help market a new version.
Well ... perhaps I expected someone so enamored with CC, and who is already using same, wouldn't mind sharing their experience.
I hope you are right. My take on CC is different. I fear that once Adobe no longer needs new revenue in the form of a purchased upgrade that there would be less economic imperative to make upgrades. Subscribers are paying $10 a month to use the program and probably won't unsubscribe over a lack of program improvements. Subscribers have to continue to pay the monthly fee to use the program as is. With this guaranteed income stream i see less reason for the company to invest resources in to upgrades since the benefits would be lessened. In the past program upgrades were an economic imperative in order to sell upgrades, now CC will provide regular income stream.

Word that the Taliban and U.S. will hold formal talks to find a political solution to end nearly 12 years of war in Afghanistan comes after years of failed efforts at peace talks. A look at the evolution of U.S. relations with the Taliban:
—The Taliban, an Islamic fundamentalist movement, emerged from the Pakistani-trained mujahedeen, or holy warriors, who battled the Soviet Union's occupation of Afghanistan in the 1980s with secret backing by the CIA.
—Civil war broke out when the pro-Soviet Afghan government collapsed following the departure of Moscow's troops. The U.S. took an arms-length position of neutrality as rival warlords shelled Kabul into ruins.
—The Taliban emerged as a united military and political force in 1994 and took control of Afghanistan in 1996. Led by Mullah Mohammed Omar, the Afghan Taliban sheltered Osama bin Laden in the years leading up to the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. But the group was toppled shortly after the U.S. and allied invasion one month later.
—The U.S.-led invasion leveraged the firepower of factions, such as the Northern Alliance, who had held out against the Taliban after it seized power in 1996. CIA and U.S. special operations support for anti-Taliban forces enabled the U.S. to oust the Islamists by December 2001 without committing large numbers of U.S. ground troops.
—With U.S. attention focused largely on Iraq after the U.S. invasion there in 2003, the Taliban appeared to have been defeated as a military threat. But by 2005 it was beginning to make a comeback, gradually showing signs of improved training and better equipping, while using territory inside Pakistan as a sanctuary.
—By early 2009, Taliban gains had reached the point where the top American commander in Afghanistan offered the remarkable comment that the military situation in the south, the Taliban's heartland, was "at best, stalemated." In December 2009 President Barack Obama announced a U.S. troop "surge," with a goal of reversing the Taliban's momentum and eventually compelling them to come to the peace table.

Blaquiere Point launch ramp rebuild is underway
Mild winter weather has allowed Rock-n-Road Construction to begin the rebuild of the Blaquiere Point boat launch ramp at Mile 30 Mitkof Highway on the southeast side of Mitkof Island.
The project will include the rebuild and extension of the launch ramp, construction of a level parking pad for 19 vehicles with trailers and a new vault toilet. Sig Burrell of Rock-n-Road said they will add four picnic tables at the far end of the parking lot on an elevated pad.
The 224-foot x 20-foot wide concrete plank ramp will include over 40-feet of rock fill on the tidelands at the end of the planking, allowing for launch and recovery of boats at low tide.
Funding for the expected $450,000 project comes from a federal Secure Rural Schools fund and was piggybacked on other Federal road projects, according to U.S. Forest Ranger Jason Anderson.
Locals have used the rocky unimproved site for years to launch skiffs accessing the middle arm of the Stikine River and Knig Slough. Sharp rocks and steep terrain have made the launch site usable only for those with 4x4 vehicles which often get stuck in the mud at the lower levels of the beach during low tide.
Burrell told The Pilot the rock blasting is completed and he hopes to have the ramp roughed in this month. Burrell said he hopes to have the project completed by mid-May, pending the arrival of the concrete planks.
The 360-foot x 100-foot parking pad atop the ramp will be gravel surfaced with two entrance points onto Mitkof Highway.

McGregor-Doniger Inc.
List of Deals
McGregor-Doniger was a clothing manufacturer founded in New York in 1921 as David D. Doniger & Company. Doniger specialized in clothing, knitwear, sport shirts, and coats for men and boys. The company grossed $148,000 in 1921. It grew rapidly in the succeeding years. McGregor-Doniger adopted its new name and first sold stock to the public in 1956.
In that year, Barron's described the company as the leading American men's sportswear manufacturer. The company had sales of $40.8 million in 1954 and $52 million in 1956. Sales in 1959 were $49.1 million. McGregor-Doniger benefited from the rise in popularity of casual men's clothing during the 1950s, and its core business was men's sportswear. By the 1960s the company grew to specialize in jackets and rain gear (such as the Drizzler coat), swimwear and tennis clothing, pants and shorts, and to a lesser extent boys' clothing.
McGregor-Doniger acquired a women's clothing line from Bernard Altmann in 1963. The women's line was unsuccessful, and McGregor-Doniger stopped manufacturing it in 1968. The company suffered when mod and Western styles fell out of favor in 1967. Sales fluctuated over the 1960s: They were $55.3 million in 1964, $62.9 million in 1966, and $52.5 million in 1968.
Major shareholders of McGregor-Doniger sold shares in a Lehman Brothers deal in 1969; however, the sale did not stem the company's decreased sales. The company had $47.3 million in sales in 1969 and $45.1 million in 1970. Rapid-American Corporation acquired McGregor-Doniger in 1977.

Picture this... You've just had dinner. You're watching TV on the couch. Your non-raw husband pulls out a little chocolate bar beside you, and you wish you could have a little taste of chocolate too. What do you do? You run into the kitchen and make my 1 minute raw chocolate fudge, that's what!
It's so quick that you can do it in a commercial break, and...it only requires three ingredients.
You'll notice that this makes a very tiny serving size, so you'll want to make it in a tiny bowl so that you can stir it properly against the sides of the bowl. I use little tiny custard bowls.
This raw chocolate fudge is really sweet so you don't need much of it to get a nice hit of sweet chocolate flavour.
Frozen Recipe Twist: Make a few servings of this recipe and roll them into balls. Then freeze and eat right out of the freezer. The frozen texture is amazing!

Oh so I did get it right :) I thought it was meant to be sweeter, but it's really nice like this so that's OK then!
Hey, if it makes you happy, I'm happy! :)

Paula's Review
Raw chocolate fudge in 1 minute
I'm a beginner and I'm learning all about the ingredients used in a raw-vegan world and I'm still in the experimenting stage. This recipe is amazing! I just can't believe how good it turned out. I actually added some walnuts and spread it all on a wax paper to give it the shape of a real chocolate. An hour later the most amazing and delicious chocolate I've ever had was satisfying my sweet tooth. And my husband and my son devoured it. Thank you!!
Oooh, lovely to hear, Paula! So happy you all enjoyed! :)

Good idea! I've just tried that and it's turned out to be a success! :D
Ahh, that's great, Olivia. It's good to try different things and find what works for you. :)
Let me know how it turns out, Jujubee!

Could you sub cocoa butter for coconut oil in this? My son is allergic to coconut oil. Looking for a raw vegan option for a substitute. Thanks!

Kait's Review
Raw chocolate fudge in 1 minute
Wow. This was so intense I couldn't eat it. It was super bitter and powdery, sorry rawtarian. At first I added 2 tsp cashew butter but that didn't help, so I added another teaspoon of sweetener (I used a vegan honey substitute). It was more palatable but still too powdery. Then i added some soy milk. And some more. But it still tasted powdery. So I added more coconut oil and then another teaspoon of sweet freedom. It's much better now. In retrospect I wondered whether it might have worked better using avocado at the start instead of coconut oil, as it would have compensated for the liquid, the added fat, and might have improved the texture. It definitely hit the chocolate spot.
Thanks for sharing, Kait. I'm glad the avocado worked for you!

Amazing!! Wow!
I take it that you love this recipe? :)

Should the coconut oil be in its liquid or solid state? Also does this really get to a fudgey, chewy consistency, or is it very syrupy?
Hi Tali, solid state works best for this recipe so it isn't too soft.
Oct 25, 2014
Awesome! I loved this recipes. It is super easy and quick,which is perfect for me. It was a bit bitter, but I think I may have used too much cocoa powder. (I use cocoa because cacao tastes too bitter to me.) Overall, great recipes though. You're awesome L-J!!

Mikhail Ivanovich GlinkaRussian
Mikhail Glinka led an excessively sheltered childhood, and his early exposure to music was very narrow; the chants sung at church, the folksongs his nurse sang and the sound of the bells of the Smolensk region in which he lived. All three were influential - the early assimilation of folk music led to him becoming one of the first Russian nationalist composers and, as with Bohuslav Martinu, the resonant overtones of the bells led to an uncommon tolerance of dissonance. Once exposed to Western music he developed a deep love for it, which he was able to pursue at school in St Petersburg, where he boarded from 1817. A patchy musical education was enhanced by three lessons from John Field and a meeting with Hummel.
Glinka's early compositions belie his lack of instruction - banal melodic material is slotted into standard forms, and only the songs show promise. It was only after moving to Berlin and taking lessons from Siegfried Dehn that he was able to complete his Symphony on two Russian Themes (1834). From then until 1836 he was engaged with the composition of his first complete opera, A Life for the Tsar. Glinka used Western resources as he saw fit - Italian recitatives and French ballet, but it was fresh and exotic enough to be a great success with Berlin audiences. Spurred by its reception, Glinka immediately began work on Ruslan and Lyudmila. Hopes that his acquaintance Pushkin might write the libretto were dashed when the poet died in a duel, and he turned his attentions to his new appointment as Kappellmeister of the imperial chapel, eventually completing the opera in 1842.
Initially Ruslan and Lyudmila was not a success, and his resulting despondency eventually led to Glinka travelling Europe. First he went to Paris, where he was championed by Hector Berlioz, then to Madrid, where he composed the First Spanish Overture inspired by the Frenchman's artistic theories. Returning to Russia in 1847, subsequent works show another popular Russian trait - the influence of Fryderyk Chopin. Later projects were hindered by travel and ill health, and his main legacy proved to be the nationalist fervour he imparted to composers such as Tchaikovsky and the "Mighty Handful" - Balakirev, César Cui, Moussorgsky, Borodin and Rimsky-Korsakov.

I am working through White's First Greek Book, and I have a problem. In Lesson VII, "Imperfect Indicative Active," the paradigm for this tense indicates that the suffix -ον plus the prefix ε serves to signal both the 3rd and 1st person. For each example, it gives the same conjugation for each verb in these cases. Same with the dual 2nd and 3rd person in the present indicative active: both have the suffix -ετον.
How am I to differentiate between these, with the exception of context? This site, which I have been using to check my answers, and which has usually been extremely faithful to what I produce, indicates that the correct translation of ηγον (circumflex and smooth breathing on η; I don't know how to type this in window) is "I was leading." But it appears that "they were leading" is also correct. On a simple translation exercise, where only the verb, without a context, is given, how do I differentiate between these two quantities and the dual in present indicative active?

RedEye's 2012 Summer Movie Preview
Ladies and gentlemen, your top 5 candidates for the most-discussed movie of the summer: "The Dark Knight Rises," which could be seen as a giant disappointment if it's not ridiculously awesome. (It will be.) "Magic Mike," also known as "That movie about Channing Tatum's days as a stripper." "Ted," the cinematic debut for "Family Guy" creator Seth MacFarlane, in which a teddy bear comes to life with an off-color personality that gets in the way of Mark Wahlberg and Mila Kunis' relationship. Oscar material? No. Likely to inspire arguments? Yes. "Prometheus," which may or may not have anything to do with Ridley Scott's "Alien" but does feature a killer cast and a great-looking trailer. And "The Avengers," which kicks off an exciting season May 4 with about 5,000 superheroes at once. With runners-up like the latest from Wes Anderson, a new "Bourne" movie and a "Spider-Man" reboot, the summer looks booming. Which flicks are we actually excited about? Read on. -- Matt Pais

I have read a fair bit of the manga; it's a "big girl" series (run in the same publication as 07-Ghost) so it's got lots of eye candy with hawt and cute guys. But nothing in the BL-sey direction (at least, not on the level of Hakkenden).
First episode looked lovely. I'm sure this will be my "yum" series for spring.
Despite hearing that, still plan on watching this show; it's one of the shows I was looking forward to this season. The hot guys isn't going to be a problem, BL on the other hand...Well, as long as it isn't too bad, probably won't even notice it. They said K had it and I still really don't see it.
I find it amazing how sensitive people are about calling things out as BL. "OMG, he smiled at the other guy! I'm getting evil yaoi vibes from this D:" By the same logic, most ecchi anime would definitely be yuri (you know, the boob rubbing girls are always doing on each other). If you didn't get any vibes from K, you definitely won't from this one, lol.
oh really you didn't see it... -_-
Don't forget this...

OK, I'll try to stay on topic after this.

Wow, this show is underrated.
Here's a beautiful image of Tsukumo from the latest episode to boost up some excitement:
I'm still enjoying this and the manga.

Just watched episode 2.
And I'm really starting to like it right now. The whole Circus thing seems interesting. It's an organization that hunt criminals down and have provide shows as entertainment.
I like that.
Oh, did I mention the voice actors in this? Freaking amazing. So yea. I'm starting to like it now. Hopefully, it won't disappoint me.
this weather is killing me
I liked the episode 2! But this seems little bit fast paced? I mean they skipped some scenes from the manga. Otherwise I liked it. I really love the animation here! Also this show feels really underrated....... It shouldn't be! Also that OP is bloody fantastic! I mean it's GRANRODEO so it should be good!
Playing DRAMAtical Murder! <3
Despite the fact that I absolutely despise these types of shows, thankfully it seems just interesting enough to keep me watching thus far. That's much more than I can say for K and Black Butler.
But even If the show goes to shit, at least Tsukumo is kind of cute. I really like the blond and pink look. Especially with those pigtails
I wouldn't really call it underrated, there's been a lot of pretty shows this season and Karneval's been a bit of a mess in terms of plot. I'd say it's as popular and well-liked as I would expect it to be.
Episode 3 was really interesting, I think the plot picked up quite a bit.
I'm really looking forward to next week's episode, the cliffhanger at the end really left me in suspense!

I was really surprised to find out that nai was an animal lol
Um, I-I just watched the third episode of Karneval.

I can't believe that Gareki is blushing on the third episode~
But I'm kinda surprised when the episode almost finished. The Varuga..., kidnapped Gareki.. I was like "Noooo !! Why Gareki ?!"
Cuteness overload~

The plot's a mess, and I'm losing interest. Still not in my "drop" pile, but it might be before the season is out.
I can stay with something without much plot as long as I can empathize with at least one character, but this one's still not really holding much interest for me. I just don't like anyone, they're all just "meh", especially now since Nai turned into Kyube. And since I have to put up with Hulu's commercials to watch legally, I'm only giving it one more chance to define itself, I think...

Personally, I like this.
When I started, I thought it was going to be a boring anime. I mean, the first episode was alright but it wasn't particularly good.
But the longer I watch it, the more I like it.
I mean, it's hilarious and adorable.
I haven't laughed out loud while watching anime for a while now. And this anime managed to do that. So I am definitely going to watch it.
Yes, it's kinda plotless.
But who needs plot when you have eye candy, awesome seiyuu, humor and cuteness.
I mean, this is good anime to watch when you are stressed up and all you want to do is unwind. So yea.
this weather is killing me
Finally. I've been waiting to gain some sort of depth to the characters, and episodes 5 and 6 delivered. I did not expect to see this much development within the course of a couple of episodes. That music was incredibly well-placed. I can see why this thread isn't getting much action, as I was getting close to dropping it as well. If you dropped it right off the bat, then it may not be for you, but if you are on the fence and thinking about whether it is worth watching, I will say that you should continue at least until episode 6, and then see if you want to watch more.

For a moment there, I was thinking we'd see Gareki fall into despair, but it looks like they might be going for a more positive outlook. We'll see how things go from here. With two really good character-building episodes, this looks like it might possibly have potential. Likewise, I could see it falling back into the pits. There seems to be a lot of unanswered questions, and quite a bit going on behind the scenes. We'll see if the show can deliver a good story from here on out. For the first time in this show, though, I'm thinking this might actually turn out to be a pretty good series.
Dont really like it. I love Gareki and yogi but the plot is lacking for me and the animation is pretty shitty
Yes, the character development and insights are probably the strongest points of this series. The plot is kind of mucky imo right now. but hopefully will pull itself back together. It's the construction of the characters that makes up the bulk of this series.
To me though, I actually like the elegance of Karneval and the artistic designs of the characters/setting.

For more on the fast-evolving world of digital news, check out my new site: Newsonomics.com
I've well used the Moses metaphors; others prefer the Jesus Tablet. But the dramedy around The Apple Launch has been as much Mel Brooks as Biblical. It's just more interim technology after all. In fact, it's become a tabula rasa for all our digital hopes and dreams, with the silliness merging with the real import. (And will we remember where we were when the announcement was made?)
That said, I'm enthusiastic about what tablets can do in the mid-term for news companies, old, new and still being born.
It was nice visit to Mr. Jobs' Neighborhood, and see, finally, the iPad, a tablet device "thinner and lighter than an e-book." What's it mean for the news world? He highlighted the New York Times and Time Magazine, but we don't yet know the kind or extent of business relationships here. Off the Apple announcement, here are quick pluses and minuses for newsies:
- New marketing dollars, new marketing dollars, new marketing dollars.
Yes, three plusses. I believe that the biggest impact of the tablet, in
whatever six- to 11-inch forms stick will be in being a magnet for
marketing dollars. I'm not saying advertising dollars. We're seeing a
huge shift in money -- $66 billion a year in the budgets companies are
spending on their own marketing, according to an ongoing Outsell study.
The number in 2006: $22 billion. Marketers are going direct to
consumers, courtesy of multiplying Internet technology. One example: Honda's Power of Dreams.
Marketers are looking at the tablet this way: It's part of the new
"multi-touch" marketing landscape. Multi-touch, as in smartphone-plus,
let your fingers lead you in the emerging digital world. For marketing
that means experiential marketing -- social sites, games and more. The
news publishing connection: marketers want the right content to find
customers, and news audiences are part of that mix. How, when,
what and where: all to be figured out. Remember, no IAB standards for
tablet advertising yet; this is a 2011 revenue source -- if all goes
- The birth of long-form digital reading: The first-generation news web has been notoriously short-form, read a snippet and run. We don't like reading long stories on a work device, like a laptop or desktop -- both with legacy to-do burdens -- or really on the smartphones. We do like to nibble, a nibbling that's produced relatively little engagement with customers online, and too few ad dollars. On a cross-country flight last week, I looked over at my two seatmates, and both were absorbed in their Kindles. (Yes, I was reading a newspaper!) The hope here: the tablets will be a consumer device, not a work device, and that readers might enjoy reading news, as they have long done in print.
- New revenue streams for content licensing: If Apple wants to end-around other established players -- like Comcast in the cable world and the wireless giants, Verizon and ATT -- it might well pay publishers for some kinds of content. Already, it is offering to pay Disney and CBS for their content. Certainly, not commodity news content, but we can see advantages to Apple in lining up the New York Times, high-quality business content and more. Ultimately, the tablet can become a great local device: think local news and info + Yelp + Angies List + entertainment guides + real community social interaction and next-gen business directories. We're far away from that product model yet; but someone -- why not a news company? -- will invent it.
- Slow adoption. If the iPad 's initial price point is high -- though inevitable price drops will follow -- we could be waiting until 2012 to see meaningful adoption rates. [Add: With 3G pricing of $699 and up, this product may not be mass in 2010, but as price drops kick in, expect it, and its brethren, to become mass products by 2011.]
- The familiar news bypass: You know what I mean. Tech product companies have long devalued news, considering it like air, something you get cheaply from somewhere, but not worth paying for, like video. News companies are not immediate players in the Apple launch, so we may be seeing history repeat itself.
- It's a visual medium. That's why magazine publishers, through the Next Issue Media nascent consortium got out ahead of news publishers first on this. When we think tablet, think this new trifecta: Mobile, Video, Social. Those are the new connection points in our evolving digital lives, and news publishers are generally behind the curve in all of them.
- Woeful technology integration: If news publishers want to offer across-the-board -- newsprint, desktop/laptop, smartphone, tablet -- access to their products at good price points, they need to recognize those customers across platforms. Some like the Wall Street Journal are ahead on this curve; others, like the New York Times, are behind -- which is one reason the Times won't go metered until 2011. You have to be ready for prime time to play in prime time.

BenQ exec claims Apple's iPhone 'definitely coming'
Analysis Taiwan's BenQ believes Apple will indeed offer a mobile phone product. One company executive this week said the 'iPhone' is "definitely coming", claiming the iPod maker has been talking to Taiwanese component manufacturers, some of whom also supply BenQ's handset operation.
The BenQ staffer's comment comes courtesy of Australian website Smarthouse. He said: "Among manufacturers in Taiwan [Apple's plan] is common knowledge. The issue for many is the availability of parts if the phone takes off."
He said BenQ was not in the running as a potential Apple partner: the two companies would be in competition, as they already are in the digital music player arena.
Telephony is an obvious direction for Apple's iPod enterprise, especially as storage - be it Flash or hard disk - gets cheaper and easier to integrate into a device that almost everyone already carries around.
Apple already has a relationship with Motorola, but it didn't get off to a good start - Motorola's Rokr was criticised for its lacklustre design and the 100-song limit its version of iTunes imposes. Motorola has since said it is planning a line of music phones based on Microsoft's Windows Media Player, which could be seen as a reaction to Apple's plan to enter the market.
Apple has also had, in the past, a good relationship with Sony Ericsson, particularly when it was promoting Mac OS X's data-synchronisation technology. These days, Sony Ericsson is out to win market share from the iPod using its Walkman-branded phones. The strength of the brand and the success Sony Ericsson appears to be gaining through it may also have persuaded Apple it's time to tackle its rival head-on.
If Apple is indeed going down the mobile phone route, it must be motivated by a desire to expand the iPod brand and to find a new outlet for its iTunes Music Store. None of Motorola's iTunes phones support over-the-air downloads, much to the annoyance of carriers, who want such a facility not only for their cut of the song sale but because it encourages users to spend money on data transmissions. Apple, of course, undoubtedly thinks it can take advantage of that opportunity, and it's certainly been rumoured to be plotting to become a mobile phone operator in its own right, renting spare capacity off one of the existing networks.
Can Apple offer anything other than a music-friendly phone - hardly a radical step, these days? Its synchronisation technology provides a solid foundation to get personal information, pictures, videos and music on and off the handset, and if it ties this into its .Mac web-based service, it has the basis for a Danger-style access-your-data-anywhere system that could well win an audience beyond iPod fans.
Apple has already registered 'Mobile Me' as a trademark. As it stands, the filing is too broad to zero in on the product or service behind the brand, but given the 'iPhone' rumours, it's an interesting name to seek to acquire. ®

Customer social-service is all about monitoring customers' conversations in the social cloud, identifying customers with questions, problems, and issues, and then interacting with those customers to answer questions, solve problems, and address issues. The number of customer posts and conversations in the social cloud that may be relevant to a business can be very large, ranging to thousands or even tens of thousands per week and, in the extreme, hundreds of thousands per day. Monitoring and analyzing all of them, identifying the (few) posts that require attention, and then handling each one individually and handling all of them consistently are daunting and complex tasks—daunting because of the sheer volume and complex by the diversity and nuance of language, breadth of topics, and depth of emotion (sentiment).
Radian6 is the component of Salesforce Marketing Cloud that does social monitoring, analysis, and interaction. Its tight integration with Salesforce Service Cloud—automatic creation of Cases and Contacts—makes it the obvious social-service choice to add to the customer service application portfolio of Salesforce CRM users.

CTSNet is sponsored in part by an educational grant from
Since the loadings of the PC are only partially conserved between any two studies (including the phases) and there is no biological reason for axes of variance to be orthogonal, we also adopted an analysis of nine conserved axes of variation following the strategy we recently defined from re-analysis of multiple peripheral blood gene expression profiling datasets [
]. Each axis represents strong co-variance of several hundred transcripts with a correlation coefficient r > 0.7 that appear to represent different aspects of immune function. They are defined by an axis score that is generated as PC1 for a set of 10 blood informative transcripts that we have shown consistently correlate with the respective axis [
]. Each of these axis scores explains 70% to 95% of the variation in the set of 10 blood informative transcripts, compared with just approximately 25% for any randomly chosen set of 10 transcripts. Multiple regression of all nine axis scores on all of the transcripts was performed for each phase, and over 5,070 probes associated with at least one axis in either phase. Cross-matching of the list of significant associations between the two phases showed, on average, 81% overlap, ranging from 61% for axis 9 to 91% for axis 3. Those transcripts that are significantly associated at the approximate Bonferroni threshold of < 10 in both phases (2,432 probes) were retained as axis-associated transcripts (Additional file

Differential gene expression between classes of subject (AMI versus non-AMI; cardiovascular death versus remainder; drug treatments) was evaluated by analysis of variance on the normalized data. Volcano plots [] show the significance for each probe as the negative logarithm of the -value (NLP) against the magnitude of difference (log 2 scale, 1 represents a 2-fold change).
For survival analysis, both cohorts were pooled and PC1 scores were categorized by outcome specific receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analyses using Youden's index (Sensitivity - (1 - Specificity)) [] to identify the threshold for 'high' and 'low' cardiovascular death-associated PC1 scores in both cohorts separately. The relationship between PC1 score and outcomes was determined using the Cox proportional-hazards regression in unadjusted models and in models adjusted for established risk factors that included age, gender, BMI, serum creatinine, diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, smoking, statin use, AMI and CAD (>50% luminal stenosis) all at baseline. The ability of the standard clinical model for predicting adverse events was calculated using the C-statistic before and after addition of the PC1 score.
Gene enrichment analysis was performed with the ToppGene Suite [], and showed a highly significant enrichment (hypergeometric = 4 × 10) for 18 genes annotated to the set of 222 genes known to be up-regulated in CD133 relative to CD133 hematopoietic stem cells in the 'Jaatinen_HSC_Dn' Molecular Signatures Database (MSigDB) [] entry. No other significant multiple comparison-adjusted enrichments were reported.
We next investigated the effect of using POPC based liposomes on the rRNA synthesis, ribosome assembly, and sfGFP synthesis iSAT reaction, with and without the feeding solution. In contrast to DOPC liposomes, fluorescence microscopy observations showed that POPC based liposomes allowed protein synthesis without the feeding solution (
Figure 2D
). This may be due to permeability differences across the different membranes since POPC contains one saturated fatty acid tail compared to two in DOPC. It has been shown, for example, that permeability is different between the two compositions with POPC being less permeable than DOPC membrane
Figue Cupid sandals clearance online official site ost release dates cheap visit new AzPfgc
. Somewhat surprisingly, we observed a significant delay in protein expression (a lag time ~ 7 hours) when combining iSAT in POPC liposomes with a feeding solution ( Figures 2E and 2F ). One possible model that may explain the delayed sfGFP produced in the presence of the feeding solution is that there is some inhibitory molecule(s) that can pass through both the DOPC and POPC lipid layers at different rates. The reduced permeability of the POPC membrane extends the delayed time compared to DOPC membrane. Looking forward, we plan to carry out a separate comprehensive study to fully understand this phenomenon now that we are able to build ribosomes in liposomes for the first time, which was the goal of our study. Indeed, our data convincingly showed that the cell-free expression platform for making bacterial ribosomes encapsulated within giant liposomes was capable of synthesizing sfGFP. Additional images are shown in Supplementary Figure S4 .
In summary, we report the development of experimental conditions necessary to encapsulate iSAT reactions into liposomes. We also measured the kinetics of compartmentalized gene expression when
E. coli
ribosomes are produced from the transcription of its natural rRNA operon and assembled with purified ribosomal proteins in ribosome free S150 crude extracts. Toward the synthesis of a minimal cell, it is important that DNA encodes biomolecular machines, such as ribosomes. This will be important during self-replication of the information and self-reproduction of the phospholipid bilayer. Liposome division and liposomes fusion are also important processes during evolution
. Looking forward, our approach may be integrated with more complex designs, such as the expression of cytoskeletal and membrane proteins

, and even encapsulation of gene circuits for spatial-temporal control 10 , 27 . To our knowledge, this is the first time that a cell-free transcription and translation system where a DNA molecule encoding the formation of ribosomes has been encapsulated in a model cell-like compartment ( i.e. liposome). Thus, our work represents an important step towards the construction of a minimal cell.

Tbe local girls, however, came in on the short end of a 6-2 score. Both games were fast and full of thrills and fans were given two interesting contests. The Vermilion girls had the heat of the game throughout, the locals being held to only two foul goals, which were scored by Murine. Hammel and Hurlbut were the stars for the Vermil- lonites. Tbe boys' game was by far the more interesting ot the two. The scoring in the first half was close, first one team scoring and then the other.

According to nil present Indications the new uildltion to Amherst public schools will be ready for occupancy In about one year's time Bids for the erection Ol the udell tlon have been advertised for and will be opened Murch 16. and the successful bidder will start the work at once. If this schedule Is followed (•lonely, the Interior work In the addition should be finished by the first of next year. Tho addition to the present building will be in the form of two wings, extending westward from the old school- house. One wing will Join the present structure at the north end and the other at the south Tbe ret tangle then formed will be enclosed and used for a gymnasium. The wings of the building will Include four class rooms, two modernly equipped laboratories, n manual training shop and an extensive commercial department. The gymnasium will be seventy-five feet betwoen basket ball baskets and approximately forty- eight feet wide A stage will be built at one end of the gyninuslum floor and a balcony built on both sides und the end opposite the stage. Two large dressing rooms and shower buths are Included In the plans. A special feature of the new building will be a domestic science department. A cooking room und a sewing room will be equipped in the basement. Each noon It is proposed to serve a medium priced cafeterlu luncheon to the students. These meals will be served nt cost and will consist of only wholesome foods. This system Is advocated by many doctors as being superior to the usual cold lunches at noon supplemented by sundry purchases of nlck-nucks at the candy store. It is proposed to Install a moving picture machine. In the gymnasium and educational pictures will be shown al noon hours. It Is hoped by this system to keep the students who do not eat at home at the school bouse during the noon recess. During school hours the moving picture projected will be used In connection with the teaching of different subjects. Mr. Powers stated recently that If the proposed program is followed that the local school will be one of the best, for Its size, In the state. ■■Ill Society News SURPRISE PARTY ON DR.

The Denisons and the Fords have, been old rivals, both teams meeting each other each year. Last yem. the two teams evened on games, the Den- lsone being defeated here and* the Fords meeting defeat there. Friend, of the locals, was tho ivtar of the game, caging seven field goals and playing a stellar brand ot ball. In the first half the Fords were nosed out ot the lead by two points,, the score being 12-10.

An ordinance wus drawn up and passed to the effect that pluns for the grudiug of Mllun avenue be made at once. In connection with this ordinance, a Joint meeting of the council nnd the Lorain county com missioners has been culled for Mod dny morning, ut which time the matter of widening 'be Milan avenue bridge will be discussed Tho matter of recelvlug financial uid from the county will ulso be discussed. It hits been found upon investigation that the Milan avenue bridge is inud equate In width to permit u 24-foot pavement and thut II will be neces- | sury to widen it to muke a uniform width across the hilt. The city officials hope to come to some agreement at the meeting Monday. The pool room proprietors filed a request to change the ordinance regulating the hours the pool rooms are permitted to be open on Saturday nights. The ordinance now reads that pool rooms ure permitted to be open on Saturday nights during the summer months until 11 o'clock und until in o'clock during the winter months. The council passed favorably on the proposed change, which Is that the pool rooms are to be permitted to be open until 11 o'clock on Saturday nights during the winter months unci until 10 o'clock during the summer mouths Another suggestion of greut importance was that of holding a joint meeting ot the council and the Green Line otllclals concerning the changing of the V switch which Is ut present on Milan avenue. The proposed plan is to change1 the Y from Mllun avenue to Beaver court. It will be necessary to come to an agreement with the Green Line officials to make this change and the meeting will take place in the near future. SEWING SOCIETY MEETS.

DURHAM, N.C. -- Duke head football coach David Cutcliffe has signed a two-year extension that pushes his current contract through the 2015 season, Vice President and Director of Athletics Kevin White announced on Sunday.
Terms of the contract will not be released.
"Coach Cutcliffe has clearly established himself as an elite player within the entire college football coaching community," White said. "Without question, David is one of the premier coaches in the country. Not surprisingly, in a relatively short period of time, David has implanted his strong and determined leadership all over the Duke football program.
"David has hired a phenomenal staff, and the efforts of the coaches have already paid dividends both on and off the field," continued White. "To be sure, David's unqualified commitment to the comprehensive development of the student-athlete, as well as to the mission of this highly unique University, underscores the fact that this is indeed yet another great day for Duke!"
"David Cutcliffe is a great coach, a great teacher and a great citizen of the University and the community," said Duke President Richard H. Brodhead. "He and his team have restored confidence and excitement in Duke football, and I look forward to his leadership on the field for a long time to come."
Hired on December 15, 2007, Cutcliffe guided the Blue Devils to a 4-8 record this past season -- equaling the victory total from Duke's previous four seasons combined -- while facing the second-toughest schedule in the nation and competing in the top conference in the country according to the Sagarin Ratings. The Blue Devils faced 10 bowl eligible teams along with the top-ranked FCS team in James Madison.
"I am grateful to Dr. Brodhead and Kevin for their confidence in our staff as we build on something really special here at Duke," Cutcliffe said. "As I have said many times over the past year, Duke is a fantastic place with outstanding people, and we are thrilled to be a part of this institution."
Under Cutcliffe's direction, Duke showed significant improvement in all three phases in 2008. On offense, Duke bettered its totals in total offense (+32.7), rushing offense (+42.2) and sacks allowed (-23) from the previous campaign while quarterback Thaddeus Lewis and wide receiver Eron Riley both earned All-ACC honors.
